Please consider donating the following items which have been specifically requested by the collection site:

Two high profile incidents of animal abuse have sparked a strong reaction from Patch readers and community members about what should happen to those found guilty of animal cruelty.
In St. Petersburg, a man was accused of wrapping four kittens in sandwich bags and sticking them in his freezer. Three of the kittens are recovering in Largo, while the fourth didn't survive.
And in Bradenton, a dog was found last month walking through a neighborhood after taking an ax or machete to the head and face. Local animal services officials called it the worst case of animal cruelty they had seen out of "hundreds of cases a year."
The pit bull mix, , and several rewards have been offered to help find his attacker, including
Comments on these stories ranged from some readers "rethinking their stance on the death penalty" to calls for the perpetrators to "have the book thrown at them" or to suffer the same fate as the animals.
We want to hear from you, Tampa Bay. What's the appropriate punishment for those found guilty of animal cruelty? Do you think animal cruelty laws should be tougher? Should they be as tough as those that deal with people who harm people, or is that going too far? Post your comments below.

I love candles because they can be used in many ways. For some, it can be the perfect gift, while other times it can be used as a simple decoration added towards a room. Once a candle is lit up, it has the ability to add a great ambiance towards a home. For all those that want a candle in their house, whether it being used as a decoration or to light up the room, here is a perfect and easy way to make an eco friendly beeswax candle.
However, before I get started on explaining the proper steps to making a beeswax candle, I first want to discuss why beeswax candles are better to make then regular wax candles.
Why choose Beeswax:
-Burn brighter, longer, and cleaner
-Gives off little smoke
-Smells great and has a natural honey smell
-Great for those that are sensitive to perfume
Now it is time to make some candles!
Materials: Enough beeswax to fill container (easy to use in pellets or blocks)
-Essential oil (10-12 drops per every 5.5 ounces of wax)-optional
-One wick (not lead)
-Glass container
-Melt your beeswax in a double boiler. You do not want it to be in direct contact with the heat
Once it melts, dip the metal part of the wick in the melted wax
Use the hot wax to secure the wick to the bottom of the glass container
Let the wax cool down then add the essential oils. Pour the wax into the container.
Let it cool down before using and then trim the wick.
You got yourself a beeswax candle!

Molly OHolleran of North Platte has been selected to the National Association of State Boards of Education Governmental Affairs Committee, an entity responsible for recommended federal education policy.
The Governmental Affairs Committee helps state board members understand, influence and plan for federal education policies, according to the announcement.
O'Holleran is also an elected member of the Nebraska State Board of Education and a former member of the North Platte Board of Education.
As a member of the 18-member national panel, OHolleran will meet with other state education leaders, national policymakers, federal lawmakers and education reform experts during a yearlong series of meetings.
She will share Nebraska's experiences and perspective, analyze federal education initiatives, promote state board of education priorities, and serve as a state education resource to congressional offices and staff, the NASBE said.
Now more than ever, state boards are at the hub of great changes in the education environment, with common core implementation, school safety, teacher preparation and development, and federal legislation and waivers at the center of policymaking efforts and discussion this year, said NASBE Executive Director Jim Kohlmoos.

- Health Notes
Rice ProteinRice ProteinThis 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.

Compared with other protein supplements, rice protein has more of the amino acid arginine, and since arginine is a vasodilator that can enhance blood flow to tissues, some athletes believe rice protein may also improve blood flow to muscle to enhance growth and repair. However, no research has investigated the effects of rice protein on athletic performance.ObesityDose: Refer to label instructionsDieters who are gluten or dairy sensitive and looking to supplement protein might consider rice protein, though its actual benefits for weight loss have not been studied.
Rice protein is extracted from rice and used in some protein supplements. Vegetarians may prefer it over protein supplements made from animal sources (such as whey or casein, which are milk proteins). Since rice is rarely involved in food allergies,1 rice protein may also be preferred by people with food allergies, and may be suitable to use in hypoallergenic infant formulas.2 Rice protein is not a complete protein, however, due to insufficient levels of the amino acids lysine and threonine.3, 4 Therefore, these amino acids are often added to rice protein products to correct this imbalance.

Comments about NEXT PROTEINS Detour® Protein Bar - Caramel Peanut:
Got a few of these from a pushy sales woman, but it's the one thing I actually liked. Very good taste, filling, and utterly addicting - glad it's golden week cause I'm gonna go pick up some more! I recommended these to my friends, as well - these are definitely something to share for people looking to lose weight or just eat healthy.

Comments about NEXT PROTEINS Detour® Protein Bar - Caramel Peanut:
Not sure what's up with these other reviews. The person saying it doesn't taste good: Have you tried other bars? This is the best I've found, and I've tried a ton. I'm sure it has a bit to do with personal preference, but to say it's horrible? I don't agree.
To the person that had the peanut stuck in his throat - not sure how you can give a negative review for not being able to properly chew. Replacing the peanuts with peanut butter would only add one more "processed" ingredient to the list and result in a more "melty" product.
As is, the bars hold up the best I've found from a heat perspective. Yes, they'll get melty, but the wrapping allows for a quick cool-down and it doesn't lose its shape. Sugar is relatively low as well, which is rare for a bar with 30g of protein.
Highly recommended - the 15g versions are good as well.

Even though that happened quite some time ago, I still think about him everyday. He isn't buried that far from Tye. And I wasn't aware of this until a couple of weeks ago when I went on a ride along in North Omaha, but him and Tye were from the same precinct.
Continue to Rest in Peace Jimmy.

It was Springfield's sixth ECAC bowl win in as many opportunities and second straight. The Pride also notched wins in 1995, 2004, 2009, 2010 and 2012. Last year, the Pride beat Alfred University, 31-8 in the ECAC Division III Northeast Bowl Championship.
Joel Altavesta (Tewksbury, Mass.) was named the game's most outstanding player, finishing the day with 19 carries for 60 yards and two touchdowns. The senior scored both of the Pride's second half touchdowns.
The Pride finish the season 7-3 overall and closed out the year on a four-game win streak. The last time the Pride played Norwich was in the 2008 season finale where the Pride took a 28-16 road victory. Norwich finished the season 7-4 overall.
The play of the game came from Mike Varvara (Hopewell Junction, N.J.) late in the fourth quarter. Norwich scored a touchdown to come within one point with 3:38 left in the game, but Varvara blocked the extra point attempt, allowing the Pride to run out the clock for the win. Norwich kicker Wesley Medeiros had been a perfect 34 for 34 on extra points this season until Varvara's block.
It took the Pride just two minutes to get on the scoreboard, scoring on the opening drive. Louis Fenaroli (Newtown, Conn.) rushed three yards for the touchdown and an early 7-0 lead for the Pride. Alex Martin (Torrington, Conn.) had a 38 yard carry to start the drive, as the Pride went 64 yards down the field on four plays.
Norwich answered back though on the ensuing drive. The Cadets began with rushes of 31 and 26 yards, both by Al Georgio (W. Greenwich, R.I.). The Cadets went 78 yards on eight plays. Norwich quarterback Keyen Foley (Hemet, Calif.) found Dan Jamieson (Morris Plains, N.J.) for the seven yard touchdown and a 7-7 tie with 9:43 left in the first quarter. The Cadets scored 21 unanswered points before halftime.
The two teams would later exchange turnovers, all within five yards of the end zone. The Springfield defense forced a fumble on their own one yard line, recovered by Dan Macalena (Congers, N.Y.), but gave it right back to Norwich, as Andy Mangin (Concord, Mass.) recovered a Springfield fumble on the Pride's five yard line. The Cadets capitalized on the fumble recovery, as Foley found Matt Mulcahy (Essex, Vt.) in the end zone to take a 14-7 lead with 5:29 left in the first quarter.
The Pride had trouble taking care of the football, fumbling for a second-consecutive possession, which recovered by Norwich's Michael Finney (Killeen, Texas) on Springfield's 31 yard line. The Pride defense came out strong though, forcing the Cadets to turn it over on the Springfield one yard line after holding Norwich on fourth down. Joey Racioppi (Atlantic Highlands, N.J.) made a thunderous tackle on Norwich's Pierre Noel (Manchester, N.H.) just shy of the goal line to take over.
The Pride offense couldn't put anything together on the drive and Norwich took over. Foley had a 12 yard completion to Mike Cavanaugh (Raymond, N.H.) on the next possession. The Cadets went for it on fourth and one came up with the first down as Foley completed a four yard pass to Mulcahy. Norwich followed up the fourth down completion with a 28 yard touchdown run by Georgio to take a 21-7 lead with 5:28 left in the first half. It was Georgio's 18th touchdown of the season, a program record for Norwich.
On the Pride's ensuing possession, Jonathan Marrero (Boston, Mass.) made a great pitch to Austin Bateman (Gansevoort, N.Y.) for a big first down for Springfield. On the next play, Martin rushed for 12 yards, and Bateman would later scramble to the four yard line on a 15 yard run. The Pride converted on second and goal as Marrero looked to throw, but took it into the end zone himself for a seven yard touchdown with 27 seconds left in the first half. Norwich led 21-14 at halftime.
The Pride forced yet another third-and-out halfway through the third quarter, taking over on the Norwich 41 yard line for its best field position of the game. Springfield's offense took advantage as Marrero made a critical 35 yard pass to James Poggio (E. Granby, Conn.) who came down on the one yard line to set up first and goal. Joel Altavesta (Tewksbury, Mass.) finished it off, rushing for a one yard touchdown to tie the game up at 21 points apiece with 5:32 left in the third quarter.
Patrick O'Connor (Sayville, N.Y.) made a huge play on defense for the Pride to start the fourth quarter, intercepting a throw by Foley and returning it 25 yards to the Norwich 40 yard line. Marrero was solid on the drive, rushing for 13 yards and a first down and completing a 16 yard pass to Jason Woods (Middletown, Conn.). Altavesta picked up his second touchdown of the day, rushing for another one yard score and a 28-21 lead with 11:04 left in the game.
On the next drive, a costly pass interference call gave the Cadets first down on Springfield 26 yard line, but Norwich picked up its own penalties for a false start and holding. The Cadets earned a first down on third and long as Foley completed a 19 yard pass to Cavanaugh and scored on a two yard touchdown run by J.D. Milan (Citrus Heights, Calif.) to come within a point. Norwich could have tied the game up with 3:38 left to play, but Varara's heroic blocked extra point sealed the deal and the Pride led 28-27 with the clock winding down.
This year, Varvara has been spectacular on special teams. He recovered a blocked punt against Union and returned it for a touchdown. He also blocked a critical extra point against St. Lawrence in a 21-20 homecoming win.
Springfield had 298 yards of total offense, 241 of those on the ground. Martin finished the day with five carries for 69 yards, Bateman had seven carries for 29 yards and Fenaroli had 20 yards on seven carries. Marrero rushed for 64 yards on 16 rushes and was 3-for-4 passing for 57 yards.
Norwich finished the day with 289 yards of offense, 201 on the ground and 88 in the air. Georgio led the Cadets with 137 rushing yards on 21 carries. Foley rushed for 39 yards on 15 carries and was 9-for-18 passing with 88 yards, two touchdowns and an interception. Mulcahy led all receivers with 45 yards on five catches. Cavanaugh had three receptions for 36 yards.

In addition, Photoshop Elements 9, 10, and 11 along with Lightroom 3 and 4.Therefore, I can teach you from obtaining an image to "what" it should look like for your enjoyment or a magazine.My mathematics background will help you to understand how applications work. I have been trained in recognizing the many learning styles and use methods for students to learn. In addition, I use proven methods that I adapt to each student as an individual. Looking forward to helping you learn!

I tutor mathematics at the community colleges and enjoy the process of helping students achieve their maximum potential.
I had the most fun when I finally arrived in Calc II. I then could use all the mathematics that I had learned throughout the years. Calc III is even better since it uses the z axis.
Geometry is interesting. It deals with questions of shape, size, relative position of the shapes, and the properties of space.
I tutor mathematics at the community colleges, trigonometry is the most fun subject because of the number of ways to solve each problem.
This seems like a boring subject but if you consider a project that coincides with something that you are passionate about, the learning is fun and informative.
The questions that you will need to answer on the ACT Math Test are relatively straightforward and cover topics that you would normally find a typical high school math class. Geometry questions account for a greater percentage of the ACT Math Test than do any other type of question and I am also certified in Geometry.
I played golf as a touring professional. I qualified for the senior tour a few years ago. Prior to that, I played on the Cadillac Tour, The Hooters Tour, and The Pepsi Tour, to name a few. I caddied for the USGA in the United States Junior Amateur and the LPGA Tour.I have instructed students from beginners to seasoned touring professionals.
I have taken Adobe Photoshop and Adobe Advance Photoshop in the Maricopa County Community College system. In addition, HTML and CSS are required to teach Photoshop at the college. Post processing is required for Professional Photographers. Adobe Photoshop is industry standard, my choice for post processing, and a necessity to maintain quality control.
I have more than 30 years experience as a professional photographer. Most of the years were spent as a commercial photographer dealing with people with products. I was a former member of the Profe3ssional Photographers Association of America and the PPA of Rhode Island.In addition, I was a former member of the Magazine Photographers Association and I have had numerous rewards from the Professional Photographer Association of America. The number of classes I have taken range from simple lighting...

Opportunistic jayvees shut out Glass for second win
- Last Updated on 04:07 PM 09/02/12
- BY Doug Ford
An opportunistic Halifax County High School jayvee football team converted three turnovers into touchdowns and shut out E.C. Glass 26-0 Thursday at Tuck Dillard Memorial Stadium for its second win of the season.
Roland Brandon scored two touchdowns for the Comets, his first coming on a one-yard plunge in the first quarter following a Glass turnover.
Glass had intercepted a fourth down pass attempt by the Comets at its goal line, but the Glass player making the interception was stripped of the ball, with Halifax recovering at the one-yard line.
Halifax quarterback Kyran Adams completed a two-point conversion pass to Dezmon Edmonds for an 8-0 lead at the 6:01 mark of the first quarter.
Halifax extended its advantage early in the third quarter on Glass' opening possession, when Justin Logan returned a Hilltopper fumble 18 yards for a score that made it 14-0.
Halifax hiked its advantage to 20-0 two plays after the Comets stopped Glass on fourth down later in the third quarter, with Adams running 14 yards to the Glass 35-yard line and Brandon scoring on the next play, starting left on a sweep and cutting back across the field to score his second touchdown of the night.
The Comets posted their final points of the game with time winding down, Edmonds intercepting a Glass desperation pass and returning it 52 yards for a touchdown.
The Comets' defense made key stops at critical junctures of the game to preserve the shutout, beginning with the key fumble recovery in the first quarter.
Halifax recovered a fumble at its own five-yard line at the end of the first half to stop Glass' best drive of the game, one that began at its 18-yard line and consumed 16 plays.
The Comets stopped the Hilltoppers twice on downs during the game, and Brandon recovered a fumble at the Halifax 19-yard line to stop another Glass threat.
The jayvees stepped up their intensity on both sides of the ball in the second half to pull away, according to Comets' Head Coach Kenneth Day.
"The kids were determined in the locker room to do well in the second half, and they did," Day said.
"We forced a lot of turnovers and a lot of mistakes, and we had big stand at the end of the first half.
"They had first and goal at the one, and we stopped them from getting in."
A number of Comets on both sides of the ball had good games, Day added, including Adams, Brandon, Rymel Windsor and Roger Miles.
R.J. Oliver, R.J. Scott, Nelson Pringle, James Newby, and Treyquan Holt also played well.
"Dezmon Edmonds intercepted a pass at the end when we put two safeties in, and Justin Logan had another good game, as did Mister Higgins," added Day.
"You have to put faith in your kids and let them play."

Europe Thump and 30th Anniversary Party
An incredible night at Le CAB in Paris to celebrate 30 years of Oakley and the incredible energy of Thump brought together an amazing and diverse community of athletes, musicians, designers, media, artists, photographers, staff and some of Europe's best Hip Hop and underground DJ's. To see this event come together and feel the energy of the community in Europe that is supporting our brand was incredible. The word is on the wire that Oakley is turning things up in Europe and I think this event captured the spirit of the brand and the European feeling perfectly. A lot of very interested people looking at us right now!

1:00 p.m.: Voting Slows at American Legion
Less than 50 people were standing in line to vote around 1 p.m. at the American Legion off Harmon Street.
Liz Shealy was standing in line around that time. She said she didn't expect to wait too long because the line was pretty short and moving fast.
But earlier in the morning when the polls were just opening, there were so many people that there wasn't any parking available.
Shealy said her husband came to vote around 7:30 a.m. and had to wait more than 45 minutes.
The race that really drew Shealy to the polls was the State Senate District 23 race between Katrina Shealy and Sen. Jake Knotts. Shealy said she supports Katrina Shealy (but is not related to her).
"Some of the comments that (Sen. Jake Knotts) has made, they don't represent me," Shealy said. "He says he's for the people, but I don't think he's for all people."
12:20 p.m.: Election Commission to Deploy Additional Machines
"Voter turnout is up tremendously," said Dean Crepes, director of the Lexington Election Commission.
"We're trying to get more machines out. I have a few machines left."
Crepes said the biggest problem has been with change of addresses. People thought that they had changed their address and they hadn't, so there's been some confusion on the part of voters in that area.
He said things are running smoothly other than long lines.
But hopefully getting some more machines to some of the precincts will help, he said.

The forecast for today is a dreary one, with a high in the low 50s and clouds and showers on and off throughout the day. Be careful out there.
Local Elections
State Senate
The race for State Senate District 23 has been long and bitter between incumbent Jake Knotts (R) and petition candidate Katrina Shealy. By himself, Knotts is a perpetual news machine, but when the ballot mess broke in the Spring and it appeared Shealy might be bounced from the ballot, the plot thickened even more. Ultimately, Shealy qualified as a petition candidate and eventually secured the endorsement of the state GOP.
Lexington County Council
Eleven candidates will be on the November ballot for five seats on Lexington County Council. More than half of the candidates are running as petition candidates after they were kicked off the primary ballot in June.
Lexington 1 School Board
Four seats are up for election on the Lexington School District 1 Board of Trustees. Twelve candidates are in the running for those seats.
School Improvement Councils held three forums for the school board candidates in October where candidates discussed issues such as iPads in the classroom, the size of classes, vouchers and funding for school programs.
Read about and watch full-length videos from the three forums.
Lexington County offices
Seven Lexington County offices are up for election, including sheriff, clerk of court, auditor, coroner, register of deeds, treasurer and a seat on the Soil and Water District Commission. Six of the seven races are uncontested. View a complete list of the candidates for the county offices.
Uncontested Races
Apart from the races for county offices, two other races in Lexington County are uncontested. The candidates running for these seats will still appear on the ballot, but are guaranteed to win since they have no opposition.
Here's a complete list of the uncontested races:
- Lexington County Council District 4: Debbie Summers
- Lexington County Council District 6: Johnny Jeffcoat
- Sheriff: James R. Metts (R)
- Treasurer: Jim Eckstrom (R)

Adair town employees will receive cost of living raises.
Trustees met Monday and after an executive session, voted to increase the pay of Water Superintendent Scott Martin and street and alley worker David Bauer by 3 percent.
Police Chief H.W. "Chief" Jordan, Officers Kody Rowley and Hank Perryman, and water clerk Melissa Crawford-Heflin will receive an additional 50 cents per hour. Town Clerk/Treasurer Kim Conseen's pay will be increased to $1,620 per month.
Trustees discussed surplussing a 1972 Ford one ton truck, a 1980s model Chevrolet one ton truck and a 4080 Case trencher.
"Here's a piece of equipment that shouldn't be worn out," said Trustee Craig Cooper. "It's paid for. It needs a chain and a sprocket."
Martin said the trencher is large and heavy and not feasible for residential work. He would like to have a small trencher on tracks; a mini-excavator. Bauer said a mini-excavator with trailer can be purchased on the state bid contract for $36,000. "Course that's without a cab," Bauer said.
"There's one for sale at White Oak for $11,000," Cooper said. "It's on craig'slist."
Bauer will go look at that small trackhoe if it is still available.
Cooper suggested taking the Case trencher to Northeast Votech School's diesel mechanics program to be repaired. "We'll have to pay for parts and about 10 percent for labor," Cooper said. The trustees approved.
Cooper made the motion to surplus the trucks with a minimum bid of $500 each.
The new water system hookup to Rural Water 6 is working well. Martin's report shows a 3 percent water loss in February, and he said much of that can be attributed to flushing fire hydrants.
The next water system project, to replace pipe and meters in town, is progressing. The chosen contractor is waiting for bonds.
Mayor Steve Hall said the town needs to purchase five water hydrants which should be chosen to match those already in place.
Martin said one lift station motor has been pulled at the sewer plant. "The seal went out," Martin said. "This is the fourth or fifth time we've had trouble with it, so David and I pulled it and it was full of water. It's been two years, so I don't know if there's any warranty left or not." Martin said Haynes Equipment Company from Oklahoma City, who installed the motor, took it to determine the damage.
Bauer said a metal building the town bought to house the sewer plant's irrigation gun has arrived.
Cooper got two bids for running the concrete pad on which to build the 30-foot by 36-foot building. Trustees accepted the lowest bid, submitted by Rick Ogden. The pad will be made of 400-pound test concrete, four inches thick with four runs of rebar inside.
Bauer said he hauled four loads of clay gravel to the sewer plant last week, but many more are needed to build up a low spot.
Heflin showed trustees several color choices for water bills, and they chose green.
Officer Glenn Parman reported the police department wrote 28 tickets and issued 11 warnings in February.
Cooper reported six firefighters attended classes at McAlester.
"We are working on improving the ISO rating," Cooper said. "It's a lengthy process. We've been going around to all the businesses to locate their shut-offs for gas and electricity."
ISO stands for Insurance Services Office. This number is used to determine insurance premiums. The better the ISO rating, the cheaper the insurance coverage.
According to the Oklahoma Insurance Commissioner's website, ISO ratings are determined by the evaluation of fire alarm and communication systems, including telephone systems, telephone lines, staffing, and dispatching systems; the fire department, including equipment, staffing, training, and geographic distribution of fire companies; the water supply system, including the condition and maintenance of hydrants, and the amount of available water compared with the amount needed to suppress fires.

— I got home from work Wednesday night just in time to see the second longest winning streak in NBA history come to an end. The Chicago Bulls beat the Miami Heat who had won 27 straight times dating back to Feb. 3. They were just a few games short of the all-time record held by the Los Angeles Lakers. Their last loss happened at the hands of the Pacers in Indianapolis.
Miami lured LeBron James, arguably one of the best players ever, from his hometown Cleveland Cavaliers in order to buy a world championship. Rounding out the powerhouse trio with DeWayne Wade and Chris Bosh, Miami was suppose to be invincible. The Heat didn't win their championship immediately like everyone thought they should. Winning with a team with three superstars turned out to be harder than some expected.
Basketball is a team sport and although you might have the best players that doesn't mean you have the best team. This is a lesson that some college teams have yet to learn.
Just a couple of years ago the Heat were the most despised franchises in sports. Miami did win its championship in 2012 and is the favorite to repeat it again this year. Now after winning it all and winning 27 straight games this year the Heat are media darlings. As Tiger Woods recently said, "winning takes care of everything."
Around here the NBA doesn't get a whole lot of air time because of this region's love for college basketball. The NCAA tournament is in full swing and two teams from around these parts were still alive as of my deadline for this column. You may be reading this a little later on Friday morning if you stayed up to watch the Indiana play Syracuse last night.
The Hoosiers vs. the Orange is a rematch of the 1987 NCAA championship game when IU's Keith Smart sank a basket in the final seconds to give Indiana its fifth NCAA banner. I remember watching that game as the team I had rooted for all year won. Indiana was behind that entire game and only led as the final seconds wound down.
Indiana is back in the spotlight after a few dark years. Coach Tom Crean has brought the team back after a couple of coaching changes and self imposed sanctions and NCAA probation stemming from violations by the previous coach. This year's team was ranked preseason No. 1 and spent 10 weeks ranked No. 1 and nearly the whole season in the top five.
If you spent any time watching the NCAA tournament last weekend you would have seen highlights from the previous years as the tournament celebrates 75 years. Along with the 1987 Keith Smart shot was also another Indiana kid, Valparaiso's Bryce Drew who made a buzzer beater of his own in a 1998 game against Ole Miss. Drew, who was an Indiana Mr. Basketball before playing for Valparaiso, is now head coach for his alma mater. If you missed the highlight you may have noticed it in the commercial that was replayed over and over again for Axe body spray, that I insist makes absolutely no sense.
Some people are a little down on the college basketball because of teams who sign players that they know won't be around for more than one year. Personally I like watching players grow and mature within a system. It is what makes the NCAA tournament great.
Watching teams like Harvard, one of the oldest universities in the country win its first tournament game is what I enjoy. Florida Gulf Coast University won its first two games in only its second year of eligibility and hopes to make history again this weekend. Watching Western Kentucky, a No. 16 seed, nearly knock off a No. 1 seed Kansas in the opening round is among the games that I will always remember, those are the games I think make this tournament special.
Even closer to home the Borden Braves made Southern Indiana proud last weekend when they won the Class A championship. Coach Doc Nash led his team to their first state title defeating the Triton Trojans 55-50 at Bankers Life Fieldhouse last Saturday morning. I have in-laws that are huge Borden Braves fans and I get to experience the excitement through them. It is exciting to see a team so close do so well and I wish them luck in the future.
The movie "Hoosiers" depicted a small town Indiana school that eventually went on to win the Indiana state championship. It shows off the spirit of basketball in the state we live. Basketball is alive and well again in the state that made it what it is today. Whether they win or lose Hoosier Hysteria is back, in the state where it belongs.

Black Sashes
Of course, there are many ways to wear the black sash, most of which do not involve sporty stripes. In fact, the majority of our celebrity examples seem to prefer the sash as an accompaniment to their dressier, print-free looks. In these instances, the dash of black serves as a palette cleanser, removing some of the sweetness from unabashedly feminine pieces. For example, last month Emmy Rossum attended a party celebrating Genlux's Winter Issue wearing a head-to-toe DKNY runway look comprised of the brand's Maraschino Silk V-Neck Shirt ($195, 800.231.0884), Rouge Cotton Poplin All Over Frill Skirt ($395, 800.231.0884), Black Cotton Twill Sash ($45, 800.231.0884), and Rouge/Maraschino Leather Ankle Strap Pumps ($395, 800.231.0884). Now, imagine that pink ruffled skirt and red blouse without the black accent at the waist--very different right? "The bow sash is like a perfect frame--it gives definition to the look," says Jane Chung EVP of DKNY Design, and we completely agree. In this case, it keeps the colorful combo from looking too girly and really elevates the outfit: talk about a high-impact accessory! Carolyn Murphy used a sash in a similar way a few months ago, when she arrived at a celebration for W magazine's September issue. The supermodel made her peach chiffon dress look a little stronger by adding a short black sash--tied in a jaunty, off-center bow--and black ankle boots for a thoroughly delightful ensemble.
In addition to taming an ultra-feminine frock, a bow-tied sash can also be used to update a retro-inspired piece, as Eva Mendes and Lea Seydoux demonstrated recently. Mendes attended the 2011 Spirit Award nominations in Hollywood wearing Peter Som's Bouquet Floral Chiffon Dress ($2475, 212.221.5991), which comes with a long sash. Alone, the floral maxi would have a very '70s bohemian look, but the addition of the statement sash takes the dress out of that specific era and makes it much more contemporary. Leydoux gave us another great example when she attended the Los Angeles premiere of Somewhere in a '50s-inspired, sleeveless, button-up dress. The combination of the full, flouncy frock and retro ankle-strap heels give off a ladylike charm, but the sash tied in the middle keeps it from feeling saccharine.
Happily, executing this smart dressing idea is a rather simple task. First and foremost, you need a sash. Our suggestion: head American Apparel and pick up The Sash ($16), or try to snag DKNY's Runway Sash Belt ($45) or Halston Heritage's Skinny Sash Belt ($95). From there, if you're looking to recreate Emmy Rossum's sweet combo for Valentine's Day or just love a fresh pop of color, try pairing Equipment's Hard Feelings Blouse ($175) in Red with either ASOS' Flippy Hem Jersey Mini Skirt ($26) or Kimichi Blue's Full Skirt ($48). Just make sure to tie your sash in a prim bow and shift it to the side to give your look a Rossum-inspired playful finish. Those of you who love Eva Mendes' take on the trend will want to pick up a floral maxi or two. Our favorites are Lipsy's Lace Trim Floral Maxi Dress ($107) and Rebecca Taylor's Runway Dress ($407); both floor-grazing frocks will take you straight through spring and summer. Finally, to master Lea Seydoux's retro pick, you should definitely check out Topshop's Cream Spotted Scallop Collar Dress ($55). Simply tie your sash so that it hangs in a loose bow in the center and you'll have nailed this look!
Of course there are a handful of lovely, ready-made styles available too! For example, we are head-over-heels in love with the relaxed fit of L'Agence's Ruffle Front Tank Dress ($340) and adore Madewell's simple and sophisticated Snapshot Dress ($145). Nasty Gal's Fuschia Silk Wrap Dress ($94) is also definitely worth checking out--the price is right and its bold color is a fresh choice for spring!

The Gatlin Brothers
Their popularity lasted throughout much of the 1980s. Their biggest hits together include, "Broken Lady", "All the Gold in California", "Houston", "She Used to Be Somebody's Baby", and "Talkin' to the Moon". Larry Gatlin is known for his rich tenor voice and for the string of pop-inflected hit songs he wrote and recorded throughout the 1970s and 80s. During this time, country music trended heavily towards polished pop music arrangements in a style that came to be known as Countrypolitan. Larry Gatlin and the Gatlin Brothers came to prominence and enjoyed their greatest success during this period with hit singles that showcased the brothers' powerful three-part harmonies and Larry's evocative falsetto voice.

Springfield, Mass. - October 20, 2012 - The Springfield College men's soccer team earned an important point in league play as it battled to a scoreless draw with Babson College in a rematch of last season's New England Women's and Men's Athletic Conference (NEWMAC) Championship on Saturday afternoon at the Irv Schmid Sports Complex.
Springfield is now 5-9-2, 2-2-1 in conference play and has gone 3-1-1 in its last five outings. Babson, which came into the game ranked sixth in this week's NCAA New England Regional rankings, is now 11-3-2, 4-0-1 in league action.
For the game, Springfield owned an 11-9 advantage in shots and took 13 of the game's 16 corner kicks.
Both teams had a pair of prime scoring chances in the opening 45 minutes of play. Springfield's came in at the 29:17 mark on a beautiful strike by Alex Reilly. The senior received the ball from 25 yards out and blasted a ball on goal, only to have Jackson Klein gets his fingertips on it, pushing away a save that glanced off the cross bar.
The Beavers nearly scored 2:09 later on a scramble in front of the net. A deep cross towards the back post found a wide open Bryan Rust, who poked a shot toward an open net. However, John Mankus was parked on the goal line and cleared out the dangerous bid.
The Beavers nearly struck in similar fashion with just over 11 minutes left in regulation. Following a close bid from Ayo Iwuagwa, Mankus once again cleared the shot off the line to keep it scoreless.
Babson nearly ended the game with 20 seconds left in the first overtime. Mike Fischer collected a bouncing ball in the six yard box and fired a shot towards goal, but Schmid was able to deflect it away.
The game's final solid scoring chance came from Springfield 1:30 in the final overtime session. David Chessen got free in transition off a great look from Kevin Nowak, but Klein was up to the task, charging off his line to get a piece of the shot that went just wide of the left post.
Klein finished with six saves in goal for Babson, while Schmid had just one in the shutout.
The Pride will play its final non-conference game on Tuesday when it travels to play Western Connecticut at 7:00 pm.

Raw Charge continues it's conversation with Vancouver Canucks blog Nucks Misconduct, focusing on goaltending and the unsettled future of Roberto Luongo and COry Schneider.
In part one of a series with Nucks Misconduct, Raw Charge asks a loaded question about the 2011 Stanley Cup Finals, the Western Conference, and a Finn named Sami.
After the 2011 Stanley Cup Finals ended, the word "class" kept popping up for both good and bad things. But what does that mean?
Two non punishments in two separate series. Both players score crucial goals for their teams in the next game. The NHL playoffs seem tainted by Colin Campbell's legacy of inconsistency.

The Boston Bruins have defeated the Tampa Bay Lightning to advance to the 2011 Stanley Cup Finals.
If an NHL team doesn't play in the Ontario, Quebec, or the US Northeast, does it exist to the traditional hockey media?

To the editor:
Citizens of Spring Valley and those concerned with our future,
After what seemed like a never-ending election cycle of rhetoric and negative ad campaigns the results are in: Spring Valley still needs your help! During the process, I saw so many passionate people who genuinely believed their ideas and candidates were best for our country, all which helped inspire me. I felt that the passion of these residents would surely carry into wanting to help their own community, which is what the Spring Valley Citizens Association is all about.
Our purpose is to "improve the quality of life and community image of Spring Valley, CA. Our mission is to establish a sense of neighborhood, build community relationships, and disseminate information."
Knocking on doors, handing out fliers, e-mailing, Facebook, websites, and media ads are some of the ways we have tried to reach out and gain more interested members willing to commit themselves to helping Spring Valley however they can.
However, the most common responses are "not interested" no matter how it's stated. So now we have a decision to make as the SVCA. With our longstanding members aging and tiring; membership is down, morale is lessened, and the possibility of disbanding is upon us.
As President, I do not want to disband and am convinced that the people of Spring Valley will once again rally for their community. I believe that the services we provide are too valuable to call it quits.
While there are other organizations fighting for Spring Valley and doing a great job, they can't do everything. What other local organizations are regularly hosting community forums with Congresswoman Susan Davis, Supervisor Jacob, and other community leaders to talk about our local issues?
We are simply here to serve you and your interests as residents of this community.
Over the last two years, we have hosted the San Miguel Fire District, talking about disaster preparedness and transition to CalFire, the Sherriff's Department talking about local crime and how to stop human trafficking, Otay Water talking about water shortages and the future of our water supply, animal control training and how to handle dangerous situations with wild life and domesticated animals.
We have organized regular community clean ups, mobilized our citizens to battle the eye sores such as trash, dumping, and graffiti in our streets. Our most popular event is hosting the Sweetwater Reservoir tour for the community, which is always a bright spot for the year.
For over a decade the SVCA has been uniting citizens for a better Spring Valley. We have helped numerous people unite, cleaned literally tons upon tons of trash off our streets, painted out countless graffiti tags, pushed local law enforcement for better patrols, helped our business community when the county was attacking them, pushed for more and better parks in the area, and made many friends and lots of progress along the way.
Spring Valley continues to get better and now is not the time to disband a great group that is fighting for a better community. If you can spare the time and energy, please help us fight for Spring Valley. Help is needed for our "Adopt-A-Street" program, managing our website and Facebook page, and helping to spread our message.
On Dec. 20, we will be hosting our annual holiday party and also deciding where we go from here. There will be two options on the table for us: either disband and hope that other groups will carry on the work we were doing; or we will carry on with meetings on a quarterly basis as opposed to monthly and continue making a difference.
If you are passionate about Spring Valley, please show your support one way or another. We are looking for volunteers of all ages and backgrounds. Students who volunteer are able to gain community service hours and are great candidates for our technology support team.
Please pass on this letter or forward this link to your neighbors, friends, and colleagues. That alone will be a big contribution to Spring Valley as we realize not everyone can help, but everyone knows someone who can help and we need them now more than ever.
If interested in joining us in continuing the SVCA's ongoing mission for a better Spring Valley, please do not hesitate to contact me through the website, my personal phone number (619-665-5867), or my e-mail email@example.com.
Thanks in advance for contributing to the cause.
Steven Relyea
President, SVCA

Deals wrap: Splitting up ConocoPhillips
Integrated energy company ConocoPhillips said it would split its businesses into two stand-alone, publicly traded corporations by spinning off its refining and marketing business.
Borders Group's buyout deal with private equity firm Najafi Companies collapsed, raising the possibility that the bankrupt bookseller could be forced to liquidate its remaining stores and go out of business.
L-3 Communications, which faces breakup pressure from an activist investor, is expected to divest some low-end services assets but does not plan a broader portfolio restructuring such as a breakup, people familiar with the situation said.
"A group led by Joshua Harris, a co-founder of the private equity firm Apollo Global Management, announced late on Wednesday that it had reached an agreement to buy the Philadelphia 76ers basketball team from the sports company Comcast-Spectacor," reports DealBook.

Jury says Concord man is guilty of hate crime
A Merrimack County Superior Court jury convicted Freese of felony criminal threatening, second-degree assault and accomplice to simple assault for the attack on a Manchester man, Alhaji Kargbo, 25, last July 31 in front of the Market Basket in Hooksett.
Witnesses testified that Freese, co-defendant Joshua Peno, 21, of Nottingham, and two others in a vehicle shouted racially offensive words at Kargbo, who was on a moped on Route 3A. Kargbo then sped up to the vehicle to confront those inside at a red light.
Prosecutors say Freese and Peno got out of the car and attacked Kargbo, pulling him off his moped, punching and kicking him. Freese was accused of later brandishing a knife and slashing at Kargbo, who was able to escape.
The two men were accused of repeatedly cursing and shouting a racial epithet at Kargbo, who is a native of Sierra Leone and moved to the United States in 2005.
Freese did not testify in his own defense, nor did two other people in the car last July, a 15-year-old and Peno's girlfriend, Nicolette Nicolaides.
Nicolaides was convicted in connection with the fatal shooting of Lennoxx Tibbs in Manchester on Oct. 22, 2009, who was the subject of racial slurs as he was chased and killed on Wilson Street. Joshua Sprague, then 25, was convicted of first-degree murder and sentenced to life in prison.
Nicolaides pleaded guilty to felony burglary conspiracy and misdemeanors of hindering apprehension and false swearing in a negotiated plea that called for cooperating with prosecutors.
She was one of seven people recruited by Sprague who went to Tibbs' 259 Wilson St. apartment building to fight with a woman he blamed for drug deals gone bad. That woman, who was staying at Tibbs' apartment with her boyfriend, heard the group enter the building and hid on the third floor as Tibbs tried to escape the crowd, which entered the second-floor apartment armed with baseball bats and a gun.
The group chased Tibbs down the stairs and out into the street, shouting racial slurs. When they reached the street, Joshua Sprague fired at Tibbs, whose hands were raised, fatally wounding him.
Because the accomplice to simple assault charge against Freese was brought as a racially-motivated hate crime, the enhanced penalty is two to five years, instead of the one-year sentence for simple assault.
The class B felonies carry sentences of 3 1/2 to seven years each.
Assistant Merrimack County Attorney Wayne Coull said Freese will be sentenced in 45 to 60 days, after completion of a pre-sentence investigation.
Freese's co-defendant, Peno, is scheduled for trial in March on two of the same charges. He does not face a criminal threatening charge.

LGA -- Good morning from LaGuardia Airport, where I arrived way too early for my flight back to Buffalo. That said, it sure was nice to zip around Manhattan and the highways leading to the airport with absolutely no traffic.
The Sabres flew back to Buffalo following their 3-2 overtime loss to the Rangers on Thursday night. It would have been a regulation loss if not for stellar saves by Jhonas Enroth, who started his third straight game and helped give the Sabres five out of six points.
The Sabres will have a decision to make on Enroth as early as today. Ryan Miller might be ready to start Saturday when the Sabres host Washington, pushing Enroth out of the crease. The Sabres obviously have more confidence in Enroth than Patrick Lalime, so do they keep him in town as the backup or send him back to Portland to play more games?
Whatever they do, keeping all three goalies on the roster would be a mistake. Remember Mika Noronen? I do. I'll always think the two-time minor-league player of the year would have been a quality NHL goalie if the Sabres hadn't made him the third wheel in a dysfunctional situation.

California Tortilla asked their patrons to vote with their tastebuds this election season, and the results are in.
The Bethesda-born and Rockville-based California Tortilla debuted its 2012 Presidential Burrito Bowls in August. On Monday, the chain announced that Obama's Chicken Teriyaki Luau Bowl had claimed a sweeping victory over Romney's Mexican Mitt-Loaf Bowl, including "swing state" victories in Virginia and Pennsylvania.
California Tortilla Chief Operating Officer and head chef Keith Goldman developed the bowls after researching the candidates' backgrounds and food preferences, according to a release announcing the promotion.
The Obama bowl, which features Mexican rice, grilled chicken, Teriyaki sauce, stir-fry vegetables, and grilled pineapple spears, won the most votes at all 33 reporting stores.
Leesburg, VA, marked the narrowest margin of victory for the Obama bowl, according to an infographic depicting the results. There, 86 burrito bowls separated it from the Romney bowl, which featured grilled Mexican meatloaf, mashed potatoes, sautéed vegetables, a sweet and savory sauce, corn and salsa.
California Tortilla has used menu items to correctly predict every presidential election since 1996, according to a press statement.
Do you think CalTort's Burrito Bowl Poll correctly predicted the winner of the 2012 presidential election? Tell us in the comments.
