The defense wasn't as solid as NSU men's basketball coach Larry Gipson would like it, but the RiverHawks were able to sneak past Nebraska-Kearney 90-85 Thursday night to earn a victory in the Mid-America Intercollegiate Athletics Association.
All five starters for the home team finished in double figures, and they were led by a 27-point, 10-assist performance from Bryton Hobbs. The reigning MIAA Athlete of the Week posted a career high in assists and the fourth double-double of his career.
Other double-digit scorers included Dalen Qualls (18), Curtis Evans (12), Marcus Sheppard (12), and Keon Littleton (11).
"I'm happy to get a win. This is a tough league to get wins in," Gipson said. "We protected our home court. We still have some defensive deficiencies that have not been corrected, and we need to do a better job of playing defense down the stretch. I thought we lost some assignments and got confused on some defensive rotations, and we simply need to do a better job."
Despite the overall lack of defensive prowess, the RiverHawks (11-4, 6-2 MIAA) were able to slow down UNK's top two scorers. Connor Beranek entered the game as the MIAA's third-leading scorer at 19.4 points per game, but he was held to just 13 points. UNK's second-leading scorer is Mike Dentlinger (13.8 points per contest), and he was held to his second-lowest total of the season of just six points.
Those that were able to reach double digits for the Lopers (5-9, 2-6 MIAA) were Davion Pearson (20), Ethan Brozek (18), Beranek, and Tyler Shields (10).
The score was tied 35-35 at halftime. NSU never trailed in the final 18:38 and led by as many as 11 points in the second half.
Northeastern State received a welcomed edition to the lineup as junior forward Landon DeMasters returned from an injury that had him sidelined since Dec. 7. He played just 11 minutes off the bench and only had one point and four rebounds, but his importance can't be quantified on a stat sheet, Gipson said.
"Landon DeMasters adds stability to our lineup. Obviously he was rusty because he had not played in more than a month, but he understands the game extremely well and does a lot of things the average fan doesn't notice," Gipson said. "He was a step slow tonight and got into some foul trouble, but there is a lot of rust that we have to knock off and we're happy to have him back."
Another welcomed edition came in the form of crowd support, as the attendance soared to 1,085 with the return of the students to campus from the holiday break. The crowd was the second-largest at home this season.
NSU (women) 64, Neb. Kearney 61
The deficit was 15 points with less than 10 minutes to play. It seemed like the NSU women's basketball team was on its way to a third straight loss. Nothing was going right for the green and white.
But then something happened; a shot found the bottom of the cup. And then another. And Nebraska-Kearney began to collapse. And the next thing they knew, the RiverHawks (7-8, 4-4 MIAA) found themselves ahead before stealing a 64-61 victory from the Lopers (6-8, 3-5 MIAA) Thursday evening inside the NSU Event Center.
NSU outscored UNK 26-8 in the final nine minutes of regulation, but it also took an 11-2 run in the last 3:29 to get past the visitors from Nebraska.
The final fire was lit by Fontana Tate, who nailed 3-pointers at both 3:29 and at 2:39 to bring the home team to within three at 59-56. A defensive rebound by Tate on UNK's next possession and two-straight assists from the junior guard to Che'Ron Lewis gave the RiverHawks a one-point advantage with a minute left in regulation. The lead was the first of the game for NSU.
The Lopers were completely out of sync during the run and finished just 1-of-8 from the field in the final three minutes. A fast-break layup with 16 seconds left and two free throws with six seconds remaining — all by Tate — sealed the comeback.
She finished with a team-high 12 points, but the comeback would not have been possible without the defensive presence of senior forward Carrington Fox.
"The three by Fontana (at the 3:29 mark) is probably what sparked the comeback," NSU coach Randy Gipson said. "Fontana hitting those two big shots rubbed off on her teammates. Carrington also played hard and led the defensive effort down the stretch. She played like you want your senior leader to play, and that inspired us."
Fox finished with nine points, 11 rebounds and five assists. She also ended the game with eight blocks, which tied the school record that was set way back in 1983 by Kathy Brock.
"We're thrilled with the way our kids hung in the game. Any win is big for this team," Gipson said. "Hopefully we gained a little optimism after tonight."
NSU has little time to celebrate as No. 23 Fort Hays State comes marching into Tahlequah for a 1:30 p.m. tip Saturday. The Tigers are coming off a 64-38 drubbing of Central Oklahoma Thursday night. They also feature the nation's leading shot blocker in Kate Lehman.

Folks interested in buying fresh, locally-grown food or other handmade products gathered at Norris Park Saturday morning, for opening day of the 2013 Tahlequah Farmers' Market.
The market, in Norris Park near the North End Entertainment District, will be open 8 a.m. to noon every Saturday through October.
Repeat customers Karen Cooper and Jim Roaix look forward to spending time at the Saturday event with like-minded folks, and always leave fresh bread or lamb or other products grown or raised in the area.
"We look forward to buying lamb and fresh vegetables," said Cooper. "We've been coming about four or five years now. It's great. It has music. It has great people to talk to. It's a lot of fun, but you need to get up and out early on Saturday."
There are nearly 30 local and area vendors expected to offer products this year, and Saturday's market offered a taste of what's to come. Roaix noted one vendor with which he looks forward to conducting business.
"Barefoot Farm, who was not here today, is my favorite. They produce just good organic, homegrown vegetables," he said. "Hanging out with these people is like hanging around with a bunch artists. Because they are artists. Their gardening is an art form."
Joyce Varner gets up early on Saturday during the farmers' market season to make sure she gets her share of the fresh food.
"I like the goat cheese. I'm planning to get some of that," she said. "[I've been coming to the farmers' market] probably since the first one. I don't come every week because I do other things, but I'll look to come as often as possible when the season starts. There are other things that I'll get that'll be here later in the season like beets and eggplant - just whatever's available."
Elizabeth Montgomery-Anderson lives close by and walks with her family to the market to enjoy the experience and products.
"We're religious about it. We do all of our produce shopping here all summer. We've been coming since the first year," she said. "We live five blocks away, so we walk."

HONG KONG (MarketWatch) -- Asian equity markets suffered heavy losses Monday as nervous investors braced for a slew of big U.S. earnings reports in the coming week, though merger-and-acquisition related news boosted shares of China Eastern Airlines and Kirin Holdings.
"People in general are reducing their risky exposure across Asia," said Yoji Takeda, head of Asian equities at RBC Investment in Hong Kong.
"In the Japanese markets, many individual investors who were in the market lately are suffering from margin calls, so they had to dump stocks. But the volume is very thin, and that's pushing down the market."
Japan's Nikkei 225 Average tumbled 2.6% to 9050.33, taking its losses into a ninth straight session, amid political uncertainty. The decline came a day after the Liberal Democratic Party suffered a big defeat in a Tokyo election, and following reports that Prime Minister Taro Aso and the LDP have decided to dissolve the Parliament and call general elections on Aug. 30.
/quotes/zigman/627449/realtime DJIA 16,880.36, -31.75, -0.19%
In Hong Kong, the Hang Seng Index also lost 2.6% to close at 17254.63.
"The primary focus will be on U.S. earnings. The results will be of some note, but attention should be particularly upon forward guidance, and whether they are driven by expectations of economic and business recovery, or are more heavily infused with caution," said David Watt, senior currency strategist at RBC Capital Markets.
Fund-raising was on the radar in Shanghai, with news of China State Construction Engineering's coming $6 billion IPO. Analysts said the size of the IPO is in line with expectations but the timing suggests the regulator wants to cap too fast a rise in the stock market. The Shanghai Composite ended the day 1.1% lower.
Elsewhere, Taiwan's Taiex and South Korea's Kospi each tumbled 3.5%, Australia's S&P/ASX 200 Index dropped 1.5% and New Zealand's NZX 50 slipped 0.1%. In afternoon trading, India's Sensex gave up 1.1% and Singapore's Straits Times slid 1.8%.
"Sentiment started to weaken across the broad Asian emerging markets late last week. Pessimism about a decoupling story for Asian markets seems to have kicked in as the U.S. and European markets continue to struggle," said Choi Seong-lak at SK Securities in Seoul.
In Tokyo action, Kirin Holdings /quotes/zigman/194680/delayed JP:2503 -0.58% /quotes/zigman/310060/delayed KNBWY -0.56% surged 7.8%, after people familiar with the situation said that Kirin and Suntory Holdings were in merger talks. A united entity would be the largest in both the Japanese beer and soft-drink markets and one of the world's biggest beverage firms. See full story.
Such a deal would be "a huge threat" to other competitors, said Tokai Tokyo Research Center analyst Tomonobu Tsunoyama, Asahi Breweries /quotes/zigman/191929/delayed JP:2502 -1.04% /quotes/zigman/527523/delayed ASBRY -7.35% ended up 2.5% and Sapporo Holdings /quotes/zigman/197227/delayed JP:2501 0.00% rose 6.1%, with traders citing hopes for further consolidation in the sector.
Shares of China Eastern Airlines /quotes/zigman/15816/delayed HK:0670 +0.82% /quotes/zigman/173680/delayed/quotes/nls/cea CEA -1.05% climbed 2.9% in Hong Kong, while in Shanghai trading, both China Eastern and Shanghai Airlines rose by their daily limit of about 5%. The carriers said China Eastern Airlines would take over Shanghai Airlines through a share swap in a deal worth $1.3 billion. See full story.
Dow Jones Industrial Average /quotes/zigman/627449/realtime DJIA -0.19% futures were recently down 36 points in screen trade.
Some market watchers were advising caution for now. "We recommend investors stay out of the market until the trend [whether be it bullish or bearish] becomes more apparent," said DMG analyst James Lim.
There was also some unease about CIT Group, a lender to almost one million mostly small and midsize businesses across the U.S. People familiar with the matter said it was preparing for a possible bankruptcy filing after so far failing to win a government guarantee to help it borrow.
Energy stocks were lower in Japan on weakness in crude-oil prices, with Inpex /quotes/zigman/396971/delayed JP:1605 -0.84% down 2.5%. In Hong Kong, Cnooc /quotes/zigman/29647/delayed HK:0883 -0.57% /quotes/zigman/274848/delayed/quotes/nls/ceo CEO +0.28% fell 2.8% and PetroChina /quotes/zigman/257868/delayed/quotes/nls/ptr PTR +0.59% /quotes/zigman/21986/delayed HK:0857 -2.49% sank 3.5%.
Financial stocks fell in Taiwan, with Cathay Financial shrinking 6.7% after reporting that their second-quarter unaudited net profit dropped 84%.
Worries over how long it might take before Taiwan's financial sector enjoyed closer links with China also weighed on shares, with the Commercial Times quoting Mainland Affairs Council minister Lai Shin-yuan as saying China and Taiwan won't start talks on a trade pact until next year.
Fortescue Metals /quotes/zigman/329628/delayed AU:FMG -0.81% gained 2.7% in Sydney, on news it shipped more iron ore in the three months to June 30. The company's chief executive also said iron ore production would continue to rise, with a solid order book in the near term and a positive outlook for the market in the medium term.
The euro was at $1.3960, from $1.3949 late in New York on Friday, and at 128.96 yen, from 128.90 yen. The U.S. dollar was at 92.35 yen, from 92.39 yen.
Daiwa Institute of Research strategist Yuji Kameoka said the U.S. dollar could weaken against the yen, possibly falling to as low as 91.50 if this week's U.S. data and earnings were weak.
Spot gold was bid at $910.90 an ounce, down $2.10 from New York levels. Investec Australia said concerns about U.S. economic growth were putting gold under pressure as deflation fears added to worries over broad-based commodities weakness stemming from U.S. regulatory pressure to limit speculation in energy, metals markets. August crude-oil futures were at $59.60 a barrel, down 29 cents from New York levels.

Amino Acids OverviewAmino Acids OverviewThis nutrient has been used in connection with the following health goals
- Reliable and relatively consistent scientific data showing a substantial health benefit.
- Contradictory, insufficient, or preliminary studies suggesting a health benefit or minimal health benefit.
- For an herb, supported by traditional use but minimal or no scientific evidence. For a supplement, little scientific support.
Our proprietary "Star-Rating" system was developed to help you easily understand the amount of scientific support behind each supplement in relation to a specific health condition. While there is no way to predict whether a vitamin, mineral, or herb will successfully treat or prevent associated health conditions, our unique ratings tell you how well these supplements are understood by the medical community, and whether studies have found them to be effective for other people.
For over a decade, our team has combed through thousands of research articles published in reputable journals. To help you make educated decisions, and to better understand controversial or confusing supplements, our medical experts have digested the science into these three easy-to-follow ratings. We hope this provides you with a helpful resource to make informed decisions towards your health and well-being.

In a double-blind trial that included patients with schizophrenia or a related condition (schizoaffective disorder) who were taking antipsychotic medications, the addition of 400 mg per day of L-theanine for 8 weeks significantly improved anxiety and various other psychiatric symptoms, compared with a placebo. L-Theanine was safe and well tolerated.1References
Amino acids are the building blocks of protein. Twenty amino acids are needed to build the various proteins used in the growth, repair, and maintenance of body tissues. Eleven of these amino acids can be made by the body itself, while the other nine (called essential amino acids) must come from the diet. The essential amino acids are isoleucine, leucine, lysine, methionine, phenylalanine, threonine, tryptophan, and valine. Another amino acid, histidine, is considered semi-essential because the body does not always require dietary sources of it. The nonessential amino acids are arginine, alanine, asparagine, aspartic acid, cysteine, glutamine, glutamic acid, glycine, proline, serine, and tyrosine. Other amino acids, such as carnitine and taurine, are used by the body in ways other than protein-building and are often used therapeutically. L-Theanine is an amino acid found in tea that is said to help relieve stress. Beta-alanine has been used to prevent fatigue during exercise.

Comments about BSN® Amino X™ - Watermelon:
I work out about four times a week. I was a little hesitant to start using a product like this, but for the price it wasn't too steep of an investment.
I've always liked BSN products. AmiNOx mixes very easily, taste great, and does what it says. I've stacked it with NO Xplode and my workouts have been amazing as of lately. I have absouletly no problem powering through my workouts, and have no soreness the following the day.
The only side affect is I think my body has become dependent on it. I ran out a few days ago, and my body has never felt so sore after my workouts.
Overall its another great product by BSN.

The annual Mississippi State-Kentucky football game doesn't
often generate a lot of national headlines or even much interest
within the Southeastern Conference.
It'll be the same way this season when the two teams meet on
Saturday in Lexington, Ky.
No national rankings. No chance at an SEC title. Very few
superstar players.
But for two programs trying to raise their national profile and
get to the postseason, it's a date both have circled long before
the season begins.
Lately, the margin between Mississippi State and Kentucky has
been razor-thin. They've split the past six games and five of those
games have been decided by a touchdown or less.
The two teams are a combined 0-7 in the SEC this season. Both
need three more wins to become bowl eligible.

Entertainment behind the scenes
Gutsy after Gaga – Meryl makes her mark in New York AIDS gala
By Jan Paschal
Even Meryl Streep gets stage fright, or so she joked to the
star-studded crowd at amfAR's New York Gala. Streep,
a two-time Oscar winner and an Oscar nominee for best actress
in "Julie & Julia," wowed the black-tie audience at the American foundation for AIDS research by singing
a capella solo — after Lady Gaga's dramatic performance.
"It really takes guts to get up and sing after Lady Gaga ,"
Streep said, warming up the room full of A-listers, who braved
a New York blizzard to get to the gala on the eve of Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week . "We've got the sacred and the profane right here."
That was a nod to Lady Gaga's star turn in a white bikini
at the white baby grand piano, which she played while
belting out a bluesy romantic ballad, with a few expletives. Streep sang an Irish song called "The Parting Glass" in
tribute to her friend, the late Natasha Richardson , the Tony
Award-winning actress and amfAR trustee, who died
last March after a skiing accident.
Streep's clear contralto voice rang out over the hushed room
and prompted many to brush away tears, including Natasha's
mother, the actressVanessa Redgrave , who is perhaps the
best-known member of Britain's theater royalty.
Redgrave told Reuters that she had asked Streep to sing as
part of the gala's tribute to her daughter, who had
raised millions for AIDS research over the past decade by
dreaming up events such as a charity auction of Oscar dresses.
"It was lovely, wasn't it?" Redgrave said, adding that Streep
chose the song.
The event raised between $1.1 million and $1.2 million for
AIDS research, a record for a single amfAR gala, an amfAR
spokesman said.
Among the guests: The Duchess of York, Sarah Ferguson , who
told Reuters she'll be keeping an eye out for "a bit of madness"
on New York's fashion runways; actress Zoe Saldana of Oscar-nominated film "Avatar " in a
Louis Vuitton dress with a short full skirt and open back;
actress Sigourney Weaver of "Avatar" in a black turtleneck
evening look; actor Alan Cumming sans tux jacket, madly
working his BlackBerry after the house lights came up; actor James Gandolfini (late of "God of Carnage" on Broadway and HBO's "The Sopranos") and IMG Fashion's senior vice president Fern Mallis , the woman
who runs the tents in Bryant Park, gamely snapping a
couple's picture on their camera, as the evening wrapped up.
Saldana, when asked which trends she'll be watching for on New York's fashion runways over the next week, told Reuters that "I hope with the influence of 'Avatar' that designers will be inspired to use more organic fabrics."
The ice queen melteth
Vogue editor-in-chief Anna Wintour, famous for her chilly demeanor, surprised the black-tie crowd at amfAR's New York Gala with her warm introduction of New York designer Donna Karan, an amfAR honoree, on Thursday night. The event packed Cipriani on 42nd Street on the eve of New York Fashion Week.
Wintour recalled how years ago, "Donna enlisted the Calvin Kleins and the Ralph Laurens" and the rest of the Council of Fashion Designers of America to band together to fight AIDS, the disease that devastated the fashion industry in the 1980s. Out of that came the Seventh on Sale benefit and other work to raise money for AIDS research to find a cure.
"Everyone refers to Donna as an earth mother," Wintour said. "When we go to visit her, she feeds us, drapes us in fabric and tells us about her latest cause."
Actress Natasha Richardson told the crowd how touched she was by "hearing Anna speak with such heart and passion, this so-called ice queen of fashion."
Karan, in a one-shoulder black gown, said thatafter seeing "all these designers dropping right in front of us" more than 20 years ago, she had to do something.
Liza Minnelli, also honored by amfAR, got a standing ovation after she sang. She wore a brown sequined tunic and leggings designed by amfAR chairman Kenneth Cole. Among the celebrities there were Harry Belafonte, Dick Cavett and Mario Cantone.
A Louis Vuitton vanity case, designed by actress Sharon Stone, was among items auctioned for amfAR by Jamie Niven, chairman of Sotheby's North and South America. "Not much room for underpants," he joked, holding up the case — a wink to Stone's star turn in "Basic Instinct."

One of the most important and most overlooked tasks that all computer users should perform on a regular basis is a data backup. Unfortunately for too many of us, the first time we think about a backup is when our hard drive fails; and then it's too late.
Time Machine, the backup software included with the Mac OS since OS X 10.5, lets you easily create and maintain current backups of all your important data. It also makes recovering lost files a simple, and dare I say fun, process.
Before you do anything else with your Mac, set up and make use of Time Machine.
Locate and Launch Time Machine
Time Machine needs a hard drive or drive partition to use as the container for all Time Machine data. You can use an internal or external hard drive as your Time Machine backup disc. If you're going to use an external drive, it should be connected to your Mac and mounted on the desktop before you launch Time Machine.

- Find and click on the 'Time Machine' icon, which should be located in the System group of icons.

|Joan Gordon
|Written by provided to Sentinel-Tribune
|Tuesday, 03 September 2013 09:53
JOAN LOIS HONKALA GORDON, who breathed new life into the Bowling Green Chamber of Commerce when she was hired in 1984 as its executive director, died Sept. 2 in Bridge Hospice at Heritage Corners, Bowling Green.
Mrs. Gordon, 78, died of liver cancer, her husband James said.
Joan Gordon's talent for organization went big time in 1983 when she accepted the assignment to chair the city's 150th anniversary (and an encore performance for the city's 175th in 2008). A native of Painesville, she was the Outstanding Female Citizen of the Year in 1975. In 1986, Wood County Commissioners asked her to organize a celebration of the 100th birthday of the Wood County Courthouse, an event in which meals were catered to the second and third floors of the structure.
Recognizing her affection for the city and her love and talent for organization, the Chamber of Commerce was able to lure Mrs. Gordon from her job as public information director at WBGU-TV, a position she held from 1972 to 1984. Before that, she was county editor of the Bowling Green Sentinel-Tribune, starting as part-time TV editor for the paper.
Among her first tasks as the new Chamber executive was to organize the 1985 Annual Meeting and Dinner Dance at the BGSU Union. Mrs. Gordon made sure that every city, county, state, and university official present at the dinner was recognized from the podium by the president of the Chamber. Later that year she supervised the move of the Chamber office from West Wooster Street to the ground floor of the Masonic Building on North Main Street.
A major challenge for her was keeping alive the Bowling Green Holiday Parade after Uhlman's Dept. Stores pulled its parade funding because of a downturn in the economy. Mrs. Gordon turned to the community for replacement support and reorganized the parade itself by creating starting bays on side streets instead of all the floats starting from the high school parking lot.
She also was involved in Fourth of July fireworks funding until she retired in 2000, after 15 years at the Chamber.
Formation of Leadership BG, a Chamber project, was one of her proudest organizational accomplishments. One of that organization's legacies is the founding of the Bowling Green Community Foundation with initial funding by Dorothy and Ashel Bryan. This philanthropic organization has distributed thousands of dollars to local groups over the years.
The Chamber's Christmas tree lighting ceremony with the mayor of Bowling Green throwing the switch stemmed from the collaboration of Mrs. Gordon and the Wood County District Public Library. She also organized the annual summer Chamber Golf Outing.
Some say Joan Gordon never met a board she didn't like. Or a group. Some call her the "Queen of Committees." A former mayor of Bowling Green, the late Wes Hoffman, called her Madam Chamber, for all the revitalization efforts she put into her work - or love for the city-- as the executive director of BG's Chamber of Commerce for 15 years. She got her fingers in more pies ... it must have been in her genes...
Her talent came early, accompanied by her interest in trying to organize the world around her, as well as her skills with the written word.
Mrs. Gordon, a native of Painesville, earned a bachelor's degree in journalism from BGSU. Although she played the piano and chose a music major as a freshman, she learned that struggling with music composition was not for her, and turned to journalism. She was managing editor of The BG News as a senior. At BGSU Honors Day ceremonies, she was announced as the Outstanding Journalism Graduate of 1957. She married James Gordon that summer, and they celebrated 56 years of marriage in August.
After living in Elyria and Columbus, the Gordons returned to Bowling Green, where Mrs. Gordon taught English and journalism (and advised the Scarlet Parrot student newspaper) at the senior high school from 1959-1961.
At the Sentinel-Tribune, Mrs. Gordon first worked part time as radio-TV editor, and then full time as county editor.
She enjoyed working with the late editor Paul W. Jones, who hired her, and the other staff members like Minniebelle Conley (society editor), Dean Roach (sports editor), and reporter Gene Welty, until 1972, when Dr. Duane Tucker hired her as public information director of WBGU-TV.
After retirement from the Chamber in 2000, Mrs. Gordon plunged into full-time volunteer work.
She served terms on the Wood County Hospital Board, and loved the challenge of raising money for her organizations. She served on the foundation boards of the Wood County District Public Library and the Wood County Hospital. Mrs. Gordon was president of the Bowling Green Woman's Club and later was state president of the Ohio Federation of Women's Clubs. She was president of the Bowling Green League of Women Voters.
A member of the Bowling Green Kiwanis Club, Mrs. Gordon served at its president and was its current secretary. Increasing club membership was one of her passions, and during her time with the club, its membership surged to more than 100.
Mrs. Gordon used her journalism background to produce newsletters for the Bowling Green and state women's clubs, Bowling Green Kiwanis Club, and League of Women Voters.
She had an eagle eye for spotting typographical and spelling errors in meeting minutes that she was asked to approve as a committee member, often to the exasperation of other committee members.
Mrs. Gordon had a passion for scholarships, badgering the members of her clubs and organizations to fund new scholarships or enhance current ones. With camera in hand, she attended the annual scholarship ceremony at Bowling Green Senior High School to photograph the recipients of awards from her clubs and their parents. She ran the photos in the newsletters she produced.
As chair of the Wood County Committee on Aging, and working with the Wood County Commissioners, Rep. Randy Gardner, and BGSU, Mrs. Gordon was a key player in arranging for $500,000 to fund construction of the WCCOA's new kitchen on East Gypsy Lane Road. Dedicated in 2006, the kitchen now prepares meals for consumption at seniors at home and at sites in Bowling Green, Rossford, Pemberville, Wayne and North Baltimore. She was on the board for more than 30 years.
Mrs. Gordon's hobbies were Bowling Green and Wood County. But she also enjoyed attending concerts on the BGSU campus, BGSU women's basketball, and playing bridge with one of the city's bridge-playing women's groups.
Joan's survivors, in addition to her husband, include son Kevin, of Bowling Green, assistant sports editor at the Sentinel-Tribune; daughter Melissa Gordon Johnson, of St. Clair Shores, Mich., an accountant with a private firm; grandchildren Nicholas, Myles, and Zachary; and brother Richard, of Painesville. A younger brother David preceded her in death.
A Celebration of Life Service will be held on Friday, September 6, 2013 at 1 p.m. at the First United Methodist Church. Rev. Thomas Mellot will officiate. Burial is at Oak Grove Cemetery.
Friends may call on Thursday from 3 to 8 p.m. at Dunn Funeral Home located in Bowling Green's Historical District at 408 West Wooster St.
In lieu of flowers, donors may contribute to scholarship funds at those organizations of which Joan was a member, including Kiwanis Club, League of Women Voters, Women's Club of Bowling Green, Chamber of Commerce, BGSU Retirees Association, or the Gordon Scholarship Fund at the BGSU Foundation.
Condolences may be sent to the family by visiting www.dunnfuneralhome.com.

Fun Fact:
The fall was not scripted, Anne actually slipped while filming, although she started laughing they kept with the scene. The director didn't yell cut because she waved her hand a little (what looked like when she waved at Lily to keep talking) to signal that she wanted to keep filming the shot. The editor eventually chose this shot because he felt it fit Mia's character a lot more than the scripted shots they had.
how did she not start crying after getting cunt punted that hard.

text: For me, Sasha was the ultimate example of style over substance in terms of skating. Style can camouflage weakness in the foundation (to use a construction metaphor) making people feel the skater is not being rewarded appropriately. Conversely, those with strong skating foundation, but weak presentation and style are always viewed as less deserving of being scored generously. Sasha benefited enormously from her exquisite style, but wasn't able to sustain a high level of quality in the substantive parts of her skating.

Tony Dungy's assessment of Rams rookie Michael Sam shows stunning lack of courageDan Wetzel at Yahoo Sports2 days ago
Your browser does not support iframes.
The good news for Tony Dungy is that once upon a time enough people in power, be it in football … education … government … wherever, decided that they should empower African-Americans with the opportunities they deserved. They did this no matter whether things would go "totally smooth" or cause "things to happen" with the bigots who wanted to cling to the old days.
At some point they said someone such as Dungy deserved to go to school with white people, play football with white people, even coach football like white people once exclusively did, even at the highest levels of the NFL. They rejected the ancient concept that blacks either weren't deserving/capable of such opportunities. Even more important, they ignored the idiotic idea that until every last racist was completely and wholly comfortable with a black man playing, learning or working alongside them (let alone be the boss) then such opportunity should continue to be withheld.
The smartest people pushed the dumbest aside and decided to just let the best person win.
Matt Sandusky shouldn't be vilified for telling his side of the storyDan Wetzel at Yahoo Sports5 days ago
Of all the sad and disturbing parts of Oprah Winfrey's interview Thursday with Jerry Sandusky's son Matt– and there were plenty – perhaps the worst was when he was trying to explain why he was telling the truth about being molested by his one-time foster and eventual adoptive father.
"Knowing that I'm going to be attacked, knowing that my wife and my children will have to pay for that, there is no reason for me to lie," Matt Sandusky said in the interview that aired on OWN. "I'm here to help."
It was a compelling defense, but that's isn't the issue. It's this: Why does Matt Sandusky need a defense at all?
Across an hour of programming Matt Sandusky laid his guts out in a deeply personal way with what, at times, appeared to be embarrassing admissions of what it's like to be sexually abused. That included the shame and confusion he felt at age 12 and 13 when he experienced unwanted physical enjoyment as Jerry performed sexual acts on him.
LeBron James returns to Cleveland better than ever in sequel to 'The Decision'Dan Wetzel at Yahoo Sports12 days ago
They burned his jersey. They put his face on urinal mats. They cursed him and cursed him and cursed him, only when they weren't tearing down his billboards. The team owner ripped him to shreds in a bizarre Comic Sans font email. They cheered that.
A year after the departure, when LeBron James lost in his first NBA Finals with the Miami Heat – and Cleveland rejoiced – he responded with his own arrogance and anger.
"All the people that [were] rooting on me to fail, at the end of the day they have to wake up tomorrow and have the same life that they had before they woke up today," LeBron said back in 2011.
That was then. This is the Return of the Prodigal Son.
"My relationship with Northeast Ohio is bigger than basketball," James told Sports Illustrated, which broke the news of his decision. "I didn't realize that four years ago. I do now."
In Jurgen Klinsmann, U.S. Soccer finally has a leader to followDan Wetzel at Yahoo Sports21 days ago
For complete World Cup 2014 coverage visit Yahoo Sports and follow @YahooSoccer
SAO PAULO – Jurgen Klinsmann famously said he booked his plane ticket back to California after July 13, the date of the World Cup final. It was a sign of his belief in the possibility. Instead he leaves on July 3.
"I changed the flight [Tuesday night]," he said here with a laugh.
There may be no bigger winner coming out of U.S. Soccer's dramatic and closely followed World Cup trip than Klinsmann, the charismatic, telegenic, German-born, Orange County-relocated national team coach and technical director.
He is a bona fide star now, recognized and respected in a way no soccer coach has ever been in the United States. That the Americans fared no better here than in 2010 – eliminated in the round of 16, and this time in a less competitive game – hardly matters.
Klinsmann is the king of U.S. Soccer. It's inherent that U.S. Soccer capitalizes on it.

SALVADOR, Brazil – The assault was relentless. The pressure was unrelenting. Shot after shot, attack after attack, these Belgians just coming and coming at Tim Howard, just teeing up until they could eventually break through.
Howard had been amazing but in the end it was not enough, the United States' World Cup dream ending here Tuesday in a 2-1 defeat to Belgium. The story of the night was how Howard's greatness – "absolutely amazing" Jurgen Klinsmann put it – combined with a roster full of signature heart and unrelenting effort forced extra time and then made the Belgians white-knuckle their way into the quarterfinals.

SALVADOR, Brazil – U.S. Soccer has cast its entire lot behind the idea that coach Jurgen Klinsmann knows what he is doing when it comes to advancing in the World Cup.
On Monday, that belief was tested as the coach made potentially his most reckless move yet, and one that had sure better not backfire.
Klinsmann used his press conference on the eve of the Belgium-U.S. game here to suggest the national ties of Algerian referee Djamel Haimoudi could play an adverse role in how the knockout-round game is officiated against the Americans.
Klinsmann was asked whether he was concerned that Haimoudi is able to speak French, as many Belgian players can.

SALVADOR, Brazil – Jozy Altidore has been medically cleared to play for the United States in its World Cup elimination game against Belgium on Tuesday.
Altidore strained his left hamstring while sprinting after a ball in the World Cup opener against Ghana on June 16. He was carried off the field in tears, but U.S. Soccer has consistently maintained optimism that he would again be available during this tournament.
Late last week the 6-foot-1, 24-year-oldstriker slowly jogged around the grounds of the U.S. base campin Sao Paulo as his teammates practiced.
U.S. team, fans may not fully appreciate Tim Howard until he's goneDan Wetzel at Yahoo Sports24 days ago
SAO PAULO – There are flecks of gray now in his goatee. The head is shorn clean of course, the battle against a receding hairline long since surrendered.
At age 35, Tim Howard isn't old, per se, but soccer is a young man's game. These days he looks at the kids on the U.S. Soccer team, one still just a teenager, as they hang together in the player's lounge or wait to dine together and he isn't always sure he knows everything that's going on.
"They've trained hard, they've not made too much noise," Howard said of the next generation. "That's what you want."
He was on the U.S. Olympic team way back in 2000. He was a backup in the 2006 World Cup. Since then he's been the rock of the men's national team, a star in net and a leader around the program, someone with stature, perspective and ability.
He's a good guy, his teammates will tell you in a way that isn't just an empty phrase. No, he's just a really, really good guy. Like a seriously good dude.
"Tim is a great friend," midfielder Michael Bradley said.
"Timmy is one of my best friends," former team captain Carlos Bocanegra said.

SAO PAULO – It seems that everyone and everything here, at least when it comes toU.S. Soccer, is focused on everyone and everything back home.
Far, far from each watch party or crowded bar or packed city park or even a sold-out jersey rack or barrage of tweets or the run on Panini World Cup stickers, there's an understanding that America is attached in ways that it never has before.
For a sport that has spent decades being dismissed or disappointed, it's an understandably satisfying event.
Tim Howardis in his third World Cup, second as starting goalkeeper for the U.S. He has played 11 years in the English Premier League where he's made tens of millions of dollars. He's one of the best in the world, famous and respected.
It's time for Luis Suarez to get some helpDan Wetzel at Yahoo Sports25 days ago
For complete World Cup 2014 coverage visit Yahoo Sports and follow @YahooSoccer
SAO PAULO – Since biting an opponent for the third time in a major soccer game, in this case an Italian in the middle of the World Cup, Luis Suarez has been called crazy, labeled a madman and a cannibal and depicted as a shark – among other things. FIFA hit him with a nine-game and four-month suspension.
He's also been defended by a desperate country as a "scapegoat," the victim of a vast international conspiracy (the unlikely partnership of rival South American nations and the European media), and a heroic symbol against longstanding efforts to keep Uruguay down.
The question is, does anyone, on either side, care about Luis Suarez?

Like Oprah and Madonna, Pitbull is now opening his own school. As the featured speaker at the 2013 National Charter Schools Conference, Pitbull spoke about the charter school he's helping build in his hometown of Miami. \"I constantly gave a wrong address to go to a better school. I don't want anyone in America to have to lie about where they live.\" The rapper has six children, all of which attend charter schools. \"Every day I see firsthand how my children are becoming highly motivated, thanks to the charter schools they attend.\" The school is set to open next month.

My interests started with nanotechnology and have evolved to include biotechnology, computational biology, and public policy. While working over four years at the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) on improving Scanning Tunneling Micscroscopy (STM), I started to see proteins as natural nanomachines and attained my BS in chemistry and biology with a minor in biochemistry from Duke University. Following college I worked in a startup biotech helping to sequence the first human genome for the NIH, after which I went on to attain my Ph.D. in biochemistry from Washington University School of Medicine where I researched protein structure and developed rigid compounds to act as therapeutics. Proceeding my thesis work I delved into various field in industry starting as a systems biologist at Pfizer elucidating molecular pathways, drug targets, and describing clinical trial population results due to genomic variation. I then managed an organic and microbial lab at Eurofins Scientific, and most recently led the global development of a new LIMS at Pioneer Hi-Bred architecting databases and analytical tools to help with genotyping. My research aims to improve the human condition through drug design and compound repurposing while studying protein misfolding, epigenetics, HIV, cancer, and causal links found via mining datasets.
With training in computational structure prediction, molecular and cellular biology, organic chemistry, data mining, and public policy my research combines the following areas of interests & methods of investigation in an effort to maximize my contribution to scientific enlightenment.
There will be ample projects available for student engagement with little need for prior training. For example, computational structural biology can be picked up in as little as a week if working on a very focused topic. Many of the tools one would learn engaging in my research prove useful in a plethora of functions after becoming a doctor. For example having been involved in data mining will help catapult a doctor into the select echelon of those that can interact with the deluge of patient data that physicians will have to deal with in the 21st Century. Imagine the relative effectiveness between two physicians, when one will incorporate a patient's genomic, epigenetic, and environmental health data while the other will not. While much of this analysis seems daunting at first, there is an early learning curve barrier, which once overcome allows for easy, routine use of such data.
Research interests include computational design of amyloid binding entities. Targeting monomer, dimers, and up to octomers of amyloid aggregated proteins.
Just over 100 years ago Alois Alzheimer used staining techniques and described the pathology and symptoms of dementia that would come to be called Alzheimer's Disease (AD). An increasing percentage of the world population will get AD in their lifetime with 7% of those over 65 and 40% of people over 80 years of age in industrialized countries being affected (Glass 2010, Cell). Despite decades of AD research an effective therapy let alone a vaccine has not been developed. However, the wealth of molecular information now known about the AD progression, and recent leads, raise hopes for the next decade of therapeutic development.
Multiple root causes of Alzheimer's dementia have been proposed, which have varying levels of data behind them. The amyloid theory, for decades the most widely accepted paradigm, initially posited that the amyloid plaques kill brain cells and are the causative agent leading to Alzheimer's dementia. In 1995 genetic links leading to Early onset Familial Alzheimer's disease (EOFAD) were found (Glass 2010, Cell). These mutations were in the presenilin gene which is a component of γ-secretase which cleaves the amyloid precursor protein (APP) releasing the amyloid peptide to the cytosol leading to the formation of amyloid plaques (Figure 1). In mouse models mutation of the presenilin gene causes Alzheimer's like symptoms and could be alleviated through inactivation of presenilin (Clark 1995 , Nature). Multiple methods have proven efficacious in reducing amyloid plaques and some have been correlated with better cognitive outcome while others have not.
While both amyloid plaques and tau tangles are macroscopically visible phenomena that correlate with AD progression, recent research suggests they may not be the causative agent of dementia (Clark 1995 , Nature). A new model to fit available data has been put forward in which it is amyloid-β (Aβ) pre-plaque monomer or small oligomer that cause neuron death, not the larger plaque (Saura 1995 , J Neuroscience). In this model amyloid plaques could even inhibit neuron death by sequestering the deleterious cytolsolic amyloid monomers. In this light, previous researchers conclusions about amyloid plaque may be reinterpreted as correlative instead of causative. Compounds may have been measured to decreases amyloid plaques and result in delaying cognitive decline, however this could be due to decreased soluble amyloid which in turn decreased the plaques. While there is not consensus on the causative agent leading to AD neuron death and dementia, inhibiting Aβ in the cytosol has a significant track record already as a therapeutic target with mixed results.

My research will elucidate if the following three scientific discoveries can be combined to create HIV therapeutics which can be manufactured by yeast or bacteria and delivered by bread or yogurt respectively.
Using cyclic tetrapeptides to mimic reverse turns at the interface to CXCR4 and HIV could result in a therapeutic that can be delivered in food made with genetically modified organisms. This would bring the cost of the therapeutic to nothing after development and help in delivery to the third world.
It should now be possible to engineering proteins in a cell with unique amino acid codes to be recorded by the cell as they interact with other proteins. If we genetically modify the below constructs :
It should be possible when they interact to result in the following protein:
You could imagine after interacting with several proteins over time you would end up with:
At the end of an experiment reading the protein sequence (by Edmond degradation for example) would provide a list of the interactions this protein had interacted with. Instead of getting snapshots during an experiment this would be a complete history of interactions during the experiment. Protein99 could for example be a non-interacting protein used as a control. Its incorporation would serve as a time domain, being incorporated at random intervals based on concentration. In the above example you could see that protein1 interacted more quickly with proteins 2, 86, 23, and 29 than it did with 73.
There has been significant press over the plummeting costs of genotyping, and rightfully so. In the next 15 years the cost of sequencing your entire genome should drop to the price of a cup of cappuccino, be free, or even be a product you get paid to allow someone to perform and access. However, less light has been shed on the ramifications of the epigenetic information that will be coming. Epigenetic data regards the turning on and off of genes in your DNA. While you could have your DNA sequenced once and have that data be correct for the rest of your life (unless you develop cancer), your epigenome could be "resequenced" at every doctors visit and change. In fact, reading someone's epigenetics could be the best way to see if treatments are working. Prescribing exercise or a nutrition system could then be monitored by seeing if certain deleterious genes are turned off epigenetically. Admittedly the knowledge and low cost of epigenetic information is far behind that of genomic data, but it will no doubt follow quickly. The tools used in computational drug design, are now being turned to create therapeutics to effect someone's epigenetics. Namely the methylation of histones can be targeted by rationally created therapeutics. My research interests in this area start at targeting histone deacetylase , largely because they are the best described targets currently.
There is a layer of water molecules that surround hydrophilic (water loving) surfaces in an ordered manner. This has been known and accepted for decades, and the design of drugs has taken this into account since the exterior of proteins can have this layer of ordered water molecules. Recently however, evidence has been presented (Pollack, U. Washington) which suggests that instead of this layer consisting of a few water molecules in depth it could in fact order thousands of water molecules. Such a situation can be seen at a macroscopic level, and if these results hold up have profound repercussions. In essence this pure ice-like layer of water that would form (almost a millimeter thick) could provide purified drinking water for example. In addition this layer has a negative charge and absorbs in the infrared spectrum and could therefore be used as an energy source rivaling any current renewable energy in economic viability. This Exclusion Zone (EZ) structure of water needs to be investigated, validated, and modeled.
Infectious diseases can sadly still be largely split into bacterial (treatable with antibiotics) and viral (untreatable except in rare cases). Once a virus integrates into a person's DNA they are currently left with managing the side effects for the rest of their life. Technology exists to now custom design restriction enzymes (which cut DNA) to specific genomic sites. While there are many details to iron out (e.g. delivery mechanism, low excise error rate, effective ligation), I have no doubt we will be designing therapeutics to excise viral DNA and would like to be part of this research.
We are at a unique point in time, where more data is being gathered and stored digitally than we can currently analyze. While most research aims at forming a thesis and then creating and analyzing all necessary data, there is a new breed of scientist (e.g. Atul Butte at Stanford) that uses publically available datasets to data mine interesting information. This is the most high-tech form of recycling and can yield amazing results. With a SQL database background and computational scripting skills combining divergent datasets seem particularly interesting. For example imagine the correlations between data from : genomic chips, sleep pattern recording device, GPS/heart rate fitness apps, and nutrition facts stored from a membership card.
See some interesting data below to put the state of the US healthcare in reference to other developed countries … there is room for improvement, and I look forward to working with my colleagues and students to make up loss ground.

Volume 11Issue 5Spring 2000
Nurses who want to provide quality care to Montana's Hutterites should know and respect the health
beliefs and practices of the state's second largest minority, according to four Montana State
University-Bozeman nursing students who researched Hutterite health practices last semester.
Hutterites, for example, see a strong correlation between prayer and physical health. They also
have great respect for doctors and nurses and use conventional medicine, but they are open to
alternative medicines. They use reflexology and massage, as well as herbal remedies like celery
tea for colds or stinging nettle tea for "girl disorders."
Darrin Peplinski, Nancy Fields-Estill, Rachel Tanglen and Tracy Anderson conducted the Hutterite
study during their last semester of nursing school on the Billings campus. To find out the Hutterite's
beliefs and practices about health, the students sent surveys to 30 of the state's 43 Hutterite colonies.
Eighteen out of 150 surveys were returned, so the students conducted personal interviews, too.
Their research gave them ideas for how nurses can better care for their Hutterite patients, the students
said. Nurses should pay strong attention to the spiritual needs of their patients, for example. They
should encourage visits from other colony members, especially spiritual leaders and families. Nurses
should be willing to read the Bible to patients who may be unable to read for themselves.
The students presented their findings recently during the Ninth Undergraduate Scholars Conference
at MSU-Bozeman. Eighty-nine students representing every college on campus made presentations on
topics ranging from music therapy among the terminally ill to snake venom and swimming pool slime.
In one project, Maria Spinelli talked about the impact of divorce on vacation behavior. Building on
five years of research by associate professor of business David Snepenger, Spinelli found that baby
boomers are the most avid travelers, and they often take their children with them. About 54 percent
of all family trips involve children.
Divorce, however, has drastically affected vacations. In a survey of MSU students whose parents had
divorced, Spinelli found that discretionary income increased during the divorce, but fell after the
divorce. After the divorce, families were more likely to take vacations during the summer instead of
throughout the year.
Because of the impact of divorce on vacations, Spinelli said, "Marketers may need to consider the
divorce market to become more competitive."
Seniors Heather Haberman and Jerry Gossel looked at how Americans meet and fall in love over the
Internet. A search for dating and romance sites on America Online yielded more than 7,500 hits, many
with additional links, "so you could keep going on until your fingers fell off," Gossel said. Most of
the sites had public and private chat rooms and bulletin boards.
In comparing personal ads on the Internet with their print counterparts, Gossel found that the Internet
ads are more descriptive and that the men were more graphic in their physical descriptions and needs.
The anonymity of the Internet may explain the greater specificity, because it's easier to back out of
the "relationship" if it only exists in cyberspace, Haberman theorized.
The students also discovered that it wasn't uncommon for people to meet over the Internet and marry
within 30 days. How long these relationships last would be a good topic for subsequent studies, they
While researching the history of Irish step dancing, general studies student Pearl Harris learned that
during the 1800s the dance, referred to as "kicking up the sod," moved from the farm fields into Irish
taverns. Children were put upstairs in the pubs to alert Catholic worshippers downstairs with their
percussive footwork if British officials were approaching.
One theory for why the dancers keep their arms at their sides and their upper bodies stiff is so they
can dance in a pub without knocking over someone's drink, Harris said.
With a history stretching back to the 1500s, the dance is now on the world stage. Germany alone has
nine companies, Harris found.
"Competition among peasants used to be the reason for doing the dance," Harris said. "Now the dancers
are communicating a tradition."
Francesca Messina, an exchange student from Italy, researched the U.S. cosmetic industry and presented
her findings at the USP conference. Focusing just on makeup, she said 82 percent of the American women
buy makeup. Seventy percent use face makeup, 78 percent use lipstick, 64 percent use eye products and
59 percent use nail products. Most of them buy their makeup from mass markets like discount stores and
super markets.
After reviewing the leading cosmetic companies, Messina pointed out some trends. Teenagers and baby boomers,
for example, are increasing in numbers. To reach teenagers who have more than $100 billion in disposable
income and buy beauty products on an average of every two weeks, Messina suggested that drugstores and
discount chains increase the space they use for teenage makeup supplies. Teenagers like to experiment, so
they need larger selections. They also want more information about how to use the products.
To reach baby boomers, Messina suggested that companies offer skin care lines in addition to makeup. The
products should also respond to baby boomers' concerns about environmental issues.
Two other growing groups that marketers could target are African Americans and Hispanics, Messina said.
Another trend in the cosmetic industry is buying products over the Internet.
