Things to See and Do Barn Quilt Trail
The Great American Barn Quilt Trail has come
west to Plumas County!
The project that started in the east over 300 hundred years ago, with some of the earliest groups of immigrants to the United States, is enjoying a revival across the country. The citizens of Plumas County are helping to keep this tradition alive and growing.
What started with a few creative women, some of our younger residents, and a sweet little grant from the 4-H program, has grown into a heartily embraced "public art" project throughout the entire county.
The first barn quilts were installed on some of our most historic barns in the Quincy area. Now over 100 colorful quilt squares, ranging from the very large 8x8' size to a manageable 2x2' size, adorn many of our community structures and are shaped by each participant's values, visions, heritage and passion for art.
Following the Barn Quilt Trail will reveal the history and beauty that 1850's settlers found during those crazy gold rush days. It will enrich your sense of wonder at their courage. It will also bring you unexpected delight as you travel throughout the county, taking in meadows filled with wildflowers in the spring, awesome fall colors, lush fields filled with grazing horses and cows, all on our traffic-free back roads and highways. We hope that you will find yourself on the magic of the barn quilt trail soon!
Follow the Barn Quilt Trail map here. (This map is a work in progress. New sites and and descriptions are being updated as they are available.)

The Tennessee Aquarium is proud to announce our sustainable seafood initiative, Serve & Protect. Buy your ticket for the lunch or dinner event now!
» Our Animals » Invertebrates » American Lobster
Lobsters only turn bright red after they've been cooked for dinner. In the wild, lobsters are a blend of brown, green and red, with occasional blue or white color patterns. Lobsters are able to detach their legs or claws by a process called autotonomy. This "self-amputation" can help a lobster to escape a predator's grasp. A lobster may also detach a claw if it is unable to withdraw from its old shell during molting. Lost limbs can be regenerated. After the next molt they appear fully formed but smaller than usual, and after several molts they are full sized.strong> CONSERVATION American lobsters are not considered threatened, but protecting their populations requires good management of commercial fisheries.
SIZE: Up to 3 feet long; can weigh up to 40 pounds or more. RANGE: Northwest Atlantic Ocean, from Canada through North Carolina. HABITAT: Rocky ocean floor, most common at depths of 130 feet or less. DIET: Fishes, crabs, clams, mussels, sea urchins and sea stars.

In Detail
CherryPy is a Python library for web development that allows developers to build web applications in the same way as any other object-oriented Python program. Enriched by several years of active development, it has become one of the most established toolkits for building solid and high-performance web applications in Python. CherryPy abstracts the complex low-level HTTP protocol into an easy-to-use interface that respects Python idioms. The library aims at being simple to learn for a beginner while offering the most advanced features to fluent Python developers. For these reasons CherryPy was chosen to be at the heart of the popular and feature-rich TurboGears web framework. CherryPy-powered web applications are stand-alone Python applications with their own embedded multi-threaded web server, but can also run behind Apache or IIS for scalability.
This book covers the CherryPy library for Python web development from its history and installation through its main features and core concepts to its integration with Python and other products to construct, test, and deploy a sample photoblog application. The author Sylvain Hellegouarch is dedicated to the development of free software projects and has been coordinating and administrating the community efforts around the CherryPy project since 2004. The approach based on an example application introduces many other common Python libraries, providing transferable skills also relevant for non-web Python projects.
The book starts with two chapters dedicated to CherryPy, its history and installation. It then moves through a gentle introduction to the main features and concepts of CherryPy to a thorough review of its core capabilities. After laying this foundation the book dives into a real-world example, detailing important steps in the creation of a photoblog application. These chapters cover database manipulation via Object Relational Mapping (ORM), using web services to enhance the application, and client-side scripting through
Who this book is for
This book is principally geared towards Python web developers, who are looking to add the power of the CherryPy library to their existing Python skillset. It assumes a good working knowledge of Python. Although the CherryPy toolkit is at the core of the book, many other common libraries are introduced

U.S. men's hockey topples Czech Republic, advances to Sochi Olympics semifinals
On a day filled with some dramatic quarterfinals matchups, the Americans continued to assert themselves as a major contender for the gold medal by cleanly beating the Czech Republic 5-2.
Embedded video_content_type: USA downs Czech Republic, 5-2
One of the things that has set the Americans apart from some of the other major contenders in this tournament — both current and eliminated — has been their ability to adapt to the big ice and thrive offensively. That's something that almost every forward on this team can be credited with accomplishing as further evidenced by today's game where five different forwards — James van Riemsdyk, Dustin Brown, David Backes, Zach Parise and Phil Kessel — found the back of the net for the United States.
Embedded video_content_type: Dustin Brown gives U.S. a 2-1 lead late in the first period
That brings the number of Americans that have scored in this tournament to 12. This also was the third time in four matches that the United States scored at least five goals.
Embedded owg_slideshow: U.S. men put away Czech Republic, advance to Sochi Olympics semifinals
Czech Republic goaltender Ondrej Pavelec faced an uphill battle against the Americans and he wasn't up to the task today, stopping just eight of 12 shots before he was yanked midway through the second period.
Embedded video_content_type: Backes gives U.S. 3-1 lead
His performance throughout this tournament will likely make the Czechs think back to the good old days when Dominik Hasek and Tomas Vokoun made goaltending one of the nation's strengths. Perhaps if they had that caliber of netminding today, things might have gone differently as they otherwise played respectively and got a pair of goals from Ales Hemsky that would have helped make a contest out of this match under better circumstances.
Instead the Czech Republic has lost in the quarterfinals for the second straight Winter Games. Its last link to the 1998 gold-medal winning team, Jaromir Jagr, has likely played in his last Olympic contest.
RELATED: Canada survives to advance
This Czech team, which made numerous questionable coaching and roster selection decisions, will be left hoping that its young players will be able to take over after the old guard couldn't get the job done in its last hurrah. Meanwhile the Americans, filled with players in their prime, look onward and upwards.

Editor's note: compiled from reports to Tacoma police.
Sept. 30: The man called himself a scraper. He wouldn't say much more.
The scraper was 54 with a scraggly beard, clad in black from head to foot. The description came from a woman who caught him hammering the lock on her shed with a brick.
The woman asked the scraper what he was doing. The scraper said he was trying to get his lawn mower back from someone named Jim.
The woman said Jim didn't live here and that the scraper needed to leave. The scraper started yelling. He was carrying a bottle of liquor. The woman said she was going to call police.
The scraper yelled at her and walked away.
An officer drove to the woman's house in the 800 block of East 57th Street, listened to the story and started looking around. Eventually he spotted a figure in an alley. The description fit; a man about 5 feet 8, wispy beard, dressed all in black. The man was carrying what looked like a plastic toolbox. He spotted the officer, put the box down and walked away.
The officer caught up. The man said he was a scraper.
He denied being at the woman's house. He denied using a brick to hammer the lock. Then he said he was looking for a lawn mower.
The officer cuffed him and asked if he had any weapons.
"I don't know," the scraper said. "You figure it out."
The officer frisked him and found an Allen wrench, a pair of pliers, another wrench, a glove, a green box cutter, a folding knife, six drug pipes and a full bottle of vodka.
The scraper wouldn't answer any questions. A second officer arrived and looked at the plastic toolbox left behind in the alley. A nearby homeowner said it was hers; the box and the power saw inside came from her garage.
Officers checked recent reports and found a series of burglaries in the area. The scraper had an active warrant for his arrest and a prior conviction for burglary. The officers booked him into the Pierce County Jail on suspicion of second-degree burglary, possession of burglary tools and possession of drug paraphernalia.
Sept. 29: The car prowlers gave weak excuses.
They drove a beat-up 1994 Chevrolet Suburban long past the showroom stage. An officer found them in the 1900 block of East 65th Street shortly before midnight.
The dispatch call came from a homeowner who said someone was breaking into her brother's truck. The prowlers had backed out of the driveway in an SUV with no lights.
The officer found the Suburban nearby going backwards, with no lights. He hit it with a spotlight. Two men inside ducked down and scrabbled.
The officer called for backup and walked up to the car. The two men inside were young — the driver was 26, the passenger 19.
The officer looked at the steering column. A rag covered it. The officer asked the driver to remove it. The steering column was in pieces, along with the ignition.
The officer asked what the rag was for. The driver said he was using it to shine up the dashboard.
That didn't wash with the officer; the Suburban was in dismal shape.
The driver said it was no big deal that he'd broken into the truck; it belonged to his uncle, and he was just trying to get some gas.
The driver was holding some small tools: flat screwdrivers and an ice pick. The officer cuffed the driver and the passenger.
The driver said the house with the truck belonged to his grandmother and the truck belonged to his uncle, who was always taking stuff from the driver.
"My uncle's a baller," the driver said. "He's always got money in his truck and change in his cup holder."
A second officer arrived and spoke to witnesses. The woman who called police said the driver was a relative with a penchant for stealing the family's stuff and scamming relatives for money. Officers booked the driver and the passenger into the Fife City Jail on suspicion of vehicle prowling.
Sept. 28: The call came in as a threat with a shotgun. Two officers rolled to the 1400 block of East 55th Street.
The witness, a 57-year-old woman, said she heard a loud argument on the front porch. She left her bedroom, walked out front and saw two men in a white SUV. One was pointing what looked like a shotgun.
The son, 33, said he'd been standing in his driveway talking on the phone when the two men drove by and gave him a dirty look. The SUV circled the block and came back, this time pulling into the driveway. The driver shouted a challenge to a fight. The passenger handed a double-barreled gun to the driver, who pointed it at the son and threatened to shoot him in front of his mother.
The mother, arriving on the porch at this point, shouted at the men to leave and said she'd called police.
The son said he knew the men; they all grew up together. He knew the car; it belonged to his ex-girlfriend. The driver was dating her now, the son said.
Officers headed for the ex-girlfriend's address. On the way, they spotted the white SUV, a 1997 Ford Expedition. The plate matched the ex-girlfriend's address. They flicked on the emergency lights and flagged the car down.
Two men were inside. The driver was 32, the passenger 30. The driver admitted going over to the son's house and arguing.
"We're fighting over a girl," he said — but the argument was verbal, no more.
What about the gun?
The driver said there was no gun.
"I am a convicted felon and I am not supposed to have a weapon," he said.
The passenger told a different story. He'd ridden along with his friend, the driver. The driver was fighting with the other guy over a woman. Yes, the driver had a gun and pointed it.
Where was the gun now?
Not in the car, the passenger said; the driver hid it in the couch at the girlfriend's house.
The passenger said he was a convicted felon, too; wasn't supposed to be around guns.
Two more officers, called for backup, drove to the girlfriend's house. She gave her consent to search the house. Officers found the gun under the couch cushions in the rec room. It was a .22-caliber revolver with six rounds and two barrels, perhaps easy to mistake for a shotgun at a distance.
Officers booked the driver and the passenger into the Pierce County Jail on suspicion of unlawful gun possession and intimidation with a weapon.

Wenzel Current
Lightweight, inexpensive, solo backpacking tent. Suitable for reasonably dry hiking areas. This inexpensive, lightweight, single-wall tent won't keep you perfectly dry in a rainstorm, but for the minimal size and weight it is still well worth carrying. I carried one of these on three section hikes on the PCT and it performed well even in the snow. It kept me out of the wind and the rain, although of course there isn't a whole lot of rainfall in that part of the country, so it would probably not… Full review
Eagles Nest Outfitters SlapStrap
The SlapStraps are ENO's most basic suspension system. They work fine but lack versatility — a much desired characteristic in the backcountry when scoping out anchor points for a hammock. I recently reviewed my ENO DoubleNest and thought it would be appropriate to include a review of the suspension system I use with said hammock. The ENO SlapStraps are an ENO manufactured accessory that works with any of their hammocks. These are only one of various suspension systems ENO manufactures for their… Full review
NEMO Meta 1P
Excellent lightweight tent and a good price. I purchased this tent from a reputable outfitter for $175. It came with all guy lines, 6 stakes, and footprint. There is a slight learning curve to setting up, but after just two setups I have no problem erecting the tent in under 2 minutes if I'm in a hurry. I am able to pitch the tent very tautly. I have used this tent a total of 8 times now and would highly recommend it for any three-season use. It has handled extremely well in various weather… Full review
Sierra Designs Flashlight 2
Great concept that needs more work. I bought this tent after reviewing various choices online. I had also owned the previous Flashlight and really like it. When I set the tent up I immediately realized that there is a serious design problem. The issue is that it is impossible to get a taut pitch on the tent body. Since this also incorporates the "fly" in that it is a single wall roof, the tent droops and sags and there are depressions in the fabric in the lower part of the roof that will be susceptible… Full review
Eureka! Pinnacle Pass 3XTA
This is a great light enough to pack tent, but built to do it all. Huge vestibules on both sides provide room for gear and to cook if needed. This is my go-to tent when I am going to the woods and don't want to be concerned no matter the weather forecast. Easy to set up by yourself and easy to pack in and out of any location. Great space with vestibules on both sides of the tent. Full review
Eagles Nest Outfitters DoubleNest
A versatile, portable, comfortable and easily accessible option for overnight sleeping or just a quick rest. Compresses to a size slightly larger than a grapefruit. With more than 100 reviews on Trailspace and almost all of them receiving either a 4 or 5-star rating, I think that goes to show this product is pretty well liked, easily accessible and performs well. There isn't a lot that I can add to the numerous reviews from people who have spent more time in their ENO DoubleNest than I have. You… Full review
The North Face Nebula Tent
This is the most versatile, spacious, lightweight tent period. I bought my Nebula tent 15 years ago in London. I traveled extensively and camped in Canada's National Parks for 30 days. I have used it all over in Africa as well and it stood up to all the weather. It is very easy to pitch, even for one person; 10 min at a relaxed pace. I use a reflective ground sheet to protect the tent and as extra space outside the entrances of the tent. Stability is great and no problems with condensation because… Full review
Walrus Armadillio
These tents are awesome. They withstood weather when others were snapping poles and going down! I highly recommend them. I've had mine for ten years. I've never had any problem with the Walrus tent. I've owned the Armidillo and it's withstood weather conditions like no others could where I camped. Zipper claps wore out as normal, but it was up for ten days at a time during the summer when camping so it took a lot of use. Rain cover is worn so I'm looking for a replacement, but the tent is in great… Full review
Big Agnes Copper Spur UL2
Very lightweight and great for solo or two-person backpacking. Overall, I really like this tent so far. It is light and packs up quite small and is also quite easy to set up. The first time I set it up was in light rain, and it was quick enough to set up that the inside did not get wet at all. The poles are pretty easy to set up, though I'm a little concerned that the 3-way junction might be a site for future weakness, but it's a little to early to say for sure. So far I have only used the tent… Full review

What's the "best" tent or shelter for you? Consider your personal outdoor needs, preferences, and budget:
- Conditions:
First, and most important, in what seasons, conditions, and terrain will you use your tent, tarp, or hammock? Choose a shelter that can handle the conditions you expect to encounter (rain, snow, wind, heat, humidity, biting insects, an energetic scout troop), but don't buy more tent than you truly need, and don't expect one tent to do it all.
- Capacity:
Tents are typically classified by sleeping capacity (i.e. one-person, two-person, etc). However, a tent's stated sleeping capacity usually does not include much (or any) space for your gear and there's no sizing standard between tent manufacturers. Some users size up.
- Livability:
Will you use the tent as a basecamp or is it an emergency shelter only? To determine if you and your gear will fit, look at the shelter's dimensions, including floor and vestibule square areas, height and headroom (including at the sides), plus the number and placement of doors, gear lofts, and pockets, to assess personal livability, comfort, and footprint.
- Weight and Packed Size:
If you'll be backpacking, climbing, cycling, or otherwise carrying that shelter, consider its weight, packed size (and your pack it needs to fit in), and its space-to-weight ratio before automatically opting for the bigger tent. Paddlers and car campers have more room to work with, but everyone should consider how the tent and its parts pack up for stowage.
- Design:
Tents come in various designs. Freestanding tents can stand alone without stakes or guy lines and can be easily moved or have dirt and other debris shaken out without being disassembled, though they still need to be staked out. Rounded, geodesic domes are stable and able to withstand heavy snow loads and wind. Tunnel tents are narrow and rectangular, and large family cabin tents are best for warm-weather campground outings.
- Other features and specs to consider include single versus double-wall, ease of setup, stability, weather resistance, ventilation, , and any noteworthy features.

Thursday 02 February 2012
Tottenham Hotspur have confirmed the signing of veteran defender Ryan Nelsen.
The 34-year-old has been able to join the White Hart Lane outfit outside the transfer window because he was released from his contract at Blackburn Rovers on Tuesday and was a free agent.
Nelsen bolsters Spurs' defensive options going into the final few months of the Barclays Premier League season, after they allowed Sebastien Bassong to join Wolves on loan on deadline day.
New Zealand international Nelsen, who captained his country at the 2010 World Cup, has ended a seven-year association with Blackburn by leaving Ewood Park.
He joined Rovers in 2005 from DC United and went on to make 172 Barclays Premier League appearances, scoring eight goals in the process as well as being the club captain.
Nelsen has played only once for Blackburn this season, but he is expected to go straight into the Spurs squad for their vital match at Liverpool on Monday.

The College encourages the creative structuring of a student's educational experiences by offering a choice of three degree programs within the framework of a liberal education. These programs, of equal validity and in accord with the aims of the College, are intended to accommodate each student's abilities, interests, and needs. Programs range from a traditional curriculum of course requirements, designed to ensure both breadth and depth, to a non-traditional combination of courses, independent studies, and internships that meet specific goals. For the Bachelor of Arts and Bachelor of Music degrees, the goals have been set by the Faculty. The Bachelor of Special Studies permits the student to define her or his own educational objectives and to select the methods best suited to achieving them. To be eligible to receive any one of the three degrees described below, students must:
- be admitted to degree candidacy by the Dean of Admission. All students are admitted to Cornell as candidates for the degree of Bachelor of Arts and remain B.A. candidates, regardless of their intention, until they have filed for and been officially granted admission to another degree program.
- file an application for graduation no later than October 1 of their senior year for graduation at the end of Block 5, in May, or in August of that academic year and have a conference with the Registrar. By filing this application for graduation, students formally declare their desire to be graduated during that academic year and register how they wish their name to appear on their diploma. Once the student has applied for graduation, an official audit of all credits earned and in progress will be conducted by the Registrar. The Registrar will inform the student and her or his academic advisor(s) of the requirements to be completed. No further check is made by the Registrar until after the start of the student's last Block at Cornell. The student, therefore, is responsible for fulfilling the conditions stated on the audit given to her or him and for consulting the Registrar before changing any of the courses for which he or she was registered at the time the audit was done. Students who will be off campus during all or part of their senior year must reconfirm their status and credits with the Registrar at least one month before Commencement.
- complete all the requirements for their degree program prior to Commencement, and settle their financial obligations to the College before the Monday preceding Commencement. Even though a student may complete the required work immediately following Commencement or during the succeeding summer, her or his degree will not be conferred nor a diploma awarded retroactively.
- earn, at the very least, eight of their final 10 course credits in Blocks taken on the Cornell College campus from Cornell College faculty members unless granted permission by the Academic Standing Committee to participate in (1) a Combined Degrees Program, (2) an off-campus program approved by Cornell, or (3) an off-campus independent study supervised by a Cornell faculty member. Students who are admitted or readmitted with senior standing (23 or more course credits) must complete at least eight course credits at Cornell. If they intend to be graduated in fewer than 10 Blocks, at least six of the eight course credits must be earned in courses numbered in the 300s or 400s, exclusive of all such courses in English as a Second Language. (See also Credit by Transfer, Paragraph 6.)
- be recommended by formal vote of the Faculty and approved by the Board of Trustees on the basis of their satisfactory academic achievement and good campus citizenship, in accordance with the bylaws of the college.
Although it is possible for a student to satisfy the requirements for more than one degree program, the College will not grant two degrees for programs taken concurrently. A graduate who returns and completes a minimum of eight course credits beyond whatever number was accumulated for the first baccalaureate may qualify for a different Cornell degree. For information on completing an additional major or minor after graduation, see Declaration of Degree Candidacy.

Just joined the site and have a question…well, I have a bunch but I will stick with one at a time. I have back issues (I'll spare the sob story) and have been on pain meds for about 2 years now. I have been taking oxycodone twice a day and just recently my doctor switched me to oxycotin (sp?) twice a day and the oxycodone for any break though pain. I am not sure what the difference is but the oxycotin doesn't really seem to help as much.
Ok…getting off subject here…. My question is, are there people out there that have been taking pain meds for extended periods of time? I mean, can I take this stuff for years and years without worrying about long term affects?
Thanks guys,
But, if your physician prescribes you narcotics for years and years and you take them AS PRESCRIBED, other than one heck of a opiate/oid tolerance you should be OK. However, chances are that your doctor will try other methods of pain relief rather than just narcotics (unless your condition is terminal).
Its really scary because I have seen people who can hardly walk after back surgery and they will tell you to never let them touch you because you will never be the same. Well, I have been through 2 and I can still walk and do some things but, even simple tasks like mowing the yard (riding lawn mower) and some simple woodworking will put me flat on my back. I want to avoid another surgery as long as possible.
Opioid medications are safe to use over an extended period of time. They do not damage any internal organs and typically have mild side effects like constipation and low testosterone (sp?) levels.
Personally, I think you should fear the potential detrimental results of multiple back surgeries more than addiction to Oxycontin. As long as you take the medication as prescribed, you shouldn't fear addiction. Now, most chronic pain patients do become dependant on their medications such that stopping them cold turkey will produce unpleasant withdrawal symptoms. If or when you decide you know longer need the Oxycontin, it is highly adviseable that you talk with your doctor as he/she will be able to help you wean off of them slowly through a medically supervised taper which will minimize unpleasant side effects.
I have taken opioids for over 15 years, with no apparent addiction or organ problems.
Just follow the instructions the doctor/pharmacy gives you. Do your own research on medical treatments and surgeries, but I would advise you to use appropriate sites with evidence based research on them.
Take care, Annette
OXYCODONE is faster .
been on one or both for 12 years.
goog luck
You have to train yourself to ask a question before taking every opioid med. AM I TAKING THIS BECAUSE MY PAQIN LEVEL REQUIRTES IT ??? , OR BECAUSE MY BRAIN SAYS IT TIME FOR A HIT.
I have been up and down the addiction road and the dependency road twice. It is easy to get lost in addicition, but life really is better if you understand the difference betwee acciction and dependency.
good luck on your pain issues.
That is a great question to ask yourself everytime you are about to take a med. I also agree that there can be a fine line between taking a medication for the pain and taking it because of an addiction but, is it not the case the some of these meds need to be taken on a regular basis for them to be affective?
Thanks for all of the responses guys.
I have never had an addiction problem, but I did work with addicts when I was much younger, I do not want to go there.
Take care, Annette
You have no reason to fear. Many of us have been using narcotics for chronic pain for 40 years or more. Opiates are a natural substance in the body. They bind with opiate receptors in the brain to reduce the effects of pain. You can use narcotics as directed for a lifetime without damaging your body's organs or functioning.
Addiction is not an issue. If you have not had an episode of addiction disorder in the past, your risk of becoming addicted in the future is below 2% (see the latest research here: http://updates.pain-topics.org/2011/01/study-finds-low-risk-of-rx-opioid-use.html and here: http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/20091598?itool=EntrezSystem2.PEntrez.Pubmed.Pubmed_ResultsPanel.Pubmed_RVDocSum&ordinalpos=1 ).
Your Oxycontin is Oxycodone in a timed release format (long-acting). It makes sense to use it also for breakthrough (BT) pain, as well.
Research shows that chronic pain patients who use long-acting medications (Oxycontin) report them to be more efficacious than short-acting drugs (Oxycodone), which work better for BT pain. If you are not receiving enough pain relief at your current level of Oxycontin dosage, just tell your doctor. The dosage can be adjusted.
It is also useful to remain cognizant that we all become tolerant to medications over time. If you stay on one medication over a number of years, you might easily reach the maximum safe dosage. When that occurs, your doctor can have you rotate to a chemically different pain medication for a couple of months. After that, you should be able to return to the original medication with improved performance.
Good luck!
http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/20091598?itool=EntrezSystem2.PEntrez.Pubmed.Pubmed_ResultsPanel.Pubmed_RVDocSum&ordinalpos=1 .
http://updates.pain-topics.org/2011/01/study-finds-low-risk-of-rx-opioid-use.html .
As you can see for yourself, the addiction risk is indeed TINY. It is important to access valid (double-blind, control group) research, rather than believe what you read in newspapers, magazines or on Internet web sites not under the auspices of the pharmacological or medical community.
You use safely narcotics as directed by your physician for a lifetime as long as you have no history of addiction disorder. The risk for those of us without a history of addiction is under 2% (see research studies above).

Opportunity: MS4 HIV psychiatry elective. Deadline 3/31/2012
The American Psychiatric Association established this program in 2004, to provide an opportunity for 4th year minority medical students to participate in a one-month clinical or research elective in HIV psychiatry.
With improvements in HIV drug therapy, there is a burgeoning demand to treat the mental health needs of those living longer with the disease. People with HIV have a higher incidence of mental health problems than the general population and, conversely, people with serious mental illness are more at risk for contracting HIV. HIV attacks the brain, causing inflammation and tissue deterioration. Infection of the brain also can lead to clinical depression, mild or moderate thinking problems, and trouble with memory and focus. Unfortunately, the mental health needs of people living with HIV/AIDS are too often overlooked.
Undoubtedly, future physicians need to develop a working knowledge of HIV-related psychiatric and neuropsychiatric issues. The purpose of the Medical Student Elective in HIV Psychiatry is to foster the participation of medical students (particularly from racial and ethnic minorities) in HIV-related care and research and provide them with a means of obtaining essential HIV-related mental health training through an integrated approach to patient care.
Description of the Project
The Senior Elective in HIV Psychiatry begins with an intensive two-day training in Washington, DC. Topics range from neuropsychiatric complications of HIV, somatic complaints, and mood disorders to special patient populations including people with substance use disorders and/or those suffering from severe mental illnesses. Training modalities include a combination of lectures, role playing, case vignettes, and first-person accounts through interviews with HIV positive people. Students then travel to training sites for their clinical or research experience for the month of September.
To date, fifty-seven students have completed the full month-long elective. Prior sites have included: Cambridge Health Alliance/Zinberg Clinic; The New York Presbyterian Hospital at Columbia University; The New York-Presbyterian Hospital Cornell University Center for Special Studies (CSS); Emory University/Grady Infectious Disease Program; Howard University; University of Pittsburgh Medical Center; University of Cincinnati; University of Miami, Stanford University, Beth Israel, and the University of South Florida (for a research elective in HIV Neuroimmunology in Psychiatry.)
The application deadline is March 31, 2012 with selections to be announced in late April.
Applications are posted online at: http://www.psych.org/Resources/OfficeofHIVPsychiatry/HIVRelatedprofessionaleducation/MinorityMedicalStudentElectiveinHIVPsychiatry.aspx

From Staff Reports
HICKORY, N.C. — The Concord University football team pulled off a shocker to open their season on Saturday night.
The Mountain Lions beat the Bears of Lenoir-Rhyne 18-10, breaking their hosts' 12-game home win streak at Moretz Stadium. The Bears began the game ranked 23rd in a preseason poll of NCAA Division II schools.
In his first start, Concord quarterback Brian Novak completed 11 of 19 passes for 145 yards and a touchdown. Tiko Henderson caught five passes for 59 yards and Derrick Williams had three catches for 60.
Gary Saylor ran a Lenoir-Rhyne fumble 28 yards for a second-half touchdown and caused a first-half fumble. Jake Lilly had 13 tackles and Davon Marion added nine for the Concord defense.
The Bears were hurt by 102 penalty yards and six turnovers, while Concord lost the ball four times.
The Mountain Lions took an 11-0 lead into halftime, scoring all their points in the second quarter.
Lilly forced Bears quarterback Miles Freeman to fumble, and Darryl Johnson pounced on the ball at the Lenoir-Rhyne 27. Andy Ellington then broke the scoring ice with a 34-yard field goal.
The Mountain Lions drove 54 yards in three minutes and scored on a 13-yard pass play from Novak to Shaun Workinger. Lilly passed to Tony Miller for a two-point conversion.
In the final minute of the half, Concord's Gary Saylor caused the Bears' fourth turnover when his hit caused Jarrod Spears to fumble the ball at the Concord 29. Riyahd Richardson made the recovery.
Lenoir-Rhyne took the opening kickoff of the second half and turned the opportunity into a 37-yard field goal by Zach Neumann.
Saylor rambled 28 yards to the goal with a fumble recovery and Ellington's kick produced an 18-3 Concord lead late in the third period.
A 19-yard touchdown pass from Freeman to Spears with eight seconds left, along with Neumann's point-after kick, narrowed the lead to eight points.
The Bears recovered an on-side kick but a penalty for an ineligible receiver downfield ruined any chance for a last-second score.
Calvinaugh Jones led Concord's rushing attack with 48 yards on 20 carries.
Freeman, running out of the triple option, amassed 110 yards on 20 attempts, and was 8 for 14 passing for 83 yards.
Concord opens its home schedule and plays its first game in the new Mountain East Conference next Saturday, hosting West Virginia State. Kickoff is scheduled for 1 p.m.
Lenoir-Rhyne will travel to Davidson.

This is a nice addition to my other heavy duty Craftsman storage. It is sturdy and fits with the top and bottom units I already had. I got it on sale, otherwise I probably would not have sprung for it for only the additional three drawers. But as it was on sale, I'm glad to have it.

was very much needed for my work.

I currently own the Craftsman bottom chest and top chest and love them. I wanted the same Craftsman quality, but something that I could easily store in a locked cabinet for extra security. So I bought 2 of these and they mount nicely in a locked Craftsman cabinet. They were a great price too.

Nice item fits in with my roll around and top box real well. I lined the drawers with a roll of non-skid to protect the tool box drawer and so the tools wouldn't slide around when opening and closing the drawers.

bought this on sale for $64.00 this box is good. drawers are not as stout as I would like . if you get it on sale for 70 or less it good deal.

Purchased this 3-drawer "heavy duty" middle chest and the 4-drawer "heavy duty" bottom chest. Wow flimsy metal, neither chest square, whole unit (with my 30 year old Waterloo 4-drawer top chest on top), wobbles when you open drawers. From reading other reviews I knew these weren't quite what they used to be, but I was still amazed at the overall cheapness and poor workmanship of both chests. It'll just be in the corner of my workspace so it'll do for my tool storage.

The Orange Leader
After West Orange-Stark jumped on Orangefield early, it was smooth sailing for the Mustangs the rest of the way as they downed the Bobcats 72-42 in District 21-3A action at Mustang Gym Friday night.
The Mustangs (18-10, 7-2) held the Bobcats (14-12, 3-7) to just four field goals in the first half and WO-S went on a 17-8 run in the first period and a 18-8 jaunt in the second quarter to take a comfortable 35-16 advantage going into intermission.
Everyone was involved in the Mustang victory as 11 different Mustangs got into the scoring column.
Travon Blanchard led the Mustang attack, scoring 14 points while snagging seven rebounds. Post Tyrant Thompson recorded a double-double, tallying 12 points while ripping down 10 boards. Blanchard and Thompson both had eight points apiece in the first half.
Laquarious Paige had another excellent all-around game for WO-S, scoring 12 points to go along with eight rebounds and six assists.
Tevin Terrell had six points and eight boards for WO-S while Chase Rutledge contributed seven points and five rebounds.
Carl Wiley led the Bobcats with 10 points, nine of them coming in the second half. Carmichael Wiley had seven points, six of them in the first half. Dustin Verrett finished with six points, going a perfect 6-for-6 from the free-throw line. Levi Shores led the Bobcats on the glass, grabbing 11 rebounds, 10 of them coming in the first half.
The Mustangs forced the Bobcats into 10 of their 23 turnovers in the first quarter to set the tone.
WO-S, which had 15 turnovers, outrebounded the Bobcats 44-27.
The Bobcats finished 15-of-25 from the free-throw line while the Mustangs converted 13-of-18.
The Mustangs outscored the Bobcats 24-12 in the third period to go up 59-28. The Bobcats went on to outpoint WO-S 14-13 in the last eight minutes.
The Mustangs, who remain tied for second-place in 21-3A with Hardin-Jefferson (29-3, 7-2), will visit Buna Tuesday. Orangefield has its bye Tuesday and will host Buna next Friday.
LC-M boys
LITTLE CYPRESS — Beaumont Ozen went on a 21-7 run in the second quarter as the Panthers went on to defeat the Little Cypress-Mauriceville Bears 64-39 in District 20-4A action at The Bear Cave Friday night.
Taylor Peveto led the Bears (11-19, 2-10) with 12 points while Trumiane Elmore chimed in with nine and Teondre Gant added eight.
Christian Bolton paced Ozen (18-9, 11-1) with 13 points. Wayne Wyngarde scored 12 for the Panthers and Ryan Haynes added 11.
The Bears return to action Tuesday when they visit the Lumberton Raiders.
BC girls
BRIDGE CITY — Kelsey Fults erupted for 22 points and 12 rebounds to lead the Bridge City Lady Cardinals to a 54-46 District 21-3A win over Hamshire-Fannett Friday night, knocking the Lady Longhorns out of the playoff picture.
The Lady Cardinals (5-6 in district) outscored the Lady Longhorns (5-6 in district) 35-23 in the second half after trailing 23-19 at intermission.
Thye Lady Cardinal win put the Orangefield Lady Bobcats (15-12, 7-5) in the playoffs. Orangefield will go to the playoffs as the third-place team after defeating WO-S 60-55 Friday night.
Alexus Henry had 11 points and five rebounds for the Lady Cardinals while Harleigh Myers had seven points.
Kasey Frederick yanked down nine rebounds for Bridge City while Bailee Bacon had five.
DeLord had 13 points for H-F while Crawford added 11.
The Lady Cardinals will wrap up their season Tuesday on the road at 21-3A champion Hardin-Jefferson (11-0), which defeated second-place Buna 54-36 Friday.
In other action Friday night, first-place Beaumont Ozen canned Little Cypress-Mauriceville 97-18 in District 20-4A play. LC-M can still make the playoffs though if the Lady Bears (13-19, 5-8) defeat Lumberton at home Tuesday.

Despite the local oil boom that has come to the Peace Region, the money is not enough for Chuck Powell.
That's why he was in Slave Lake, Alta. on Thursday. In -31 C weather, Powell was sitting next to a pile of logs way out in the bush in three feet of snow, waiting to fix a D6R CAT bulldozer after the heating system quit.
He was one of hundreds of employees helping to build a pipeline from the Edmonton area to Slave Lake.
But Powell is not alone in this pursuit of the Albertan dollar.
"There's people on both sides of the border going in both directions," said Art Jarvis, the executive director of Energy Services B.C.
A heavy-duty mechanics like Powell can earn more in Alberta than he would locally.
"A contract in the Dawson Creek area would be around $500 per day," he said. "Come out here, they'll pay you $1,200 per day."
In addition, he finds that work in Alberta is more consistent and plentiful, and that they tend to be more involved than the smaller repair work he can find in the Peace Region.
"The jobs are much bigger," he said.
Powell also believes that Alberta is more eager for oil and gas business, and that there are less regulatory restraints.
"Things are just a lot easier (in Alberta)," he said. "Here it seems we just go…they keep me busier."
Powell also finds that the jobs back home are smaller, and that they tend to go more towards unionized employees.
Powell is not the only one to take this route.
Kevin Hanna, the president of the South Peace Oilmen's Association, said that he has heard of certain workers making these long commutes.
"I think that some go to Grande Prairie and come back the other way," he said. "Lot of them will fly in (to Albertan operations), then come back home after their shift."
"(B.C. to Alberta workers) are typically going to Fort McMurray," Jarvis added. "The oil companies (in Fort McMurray) haven't reached the end of the projects."
However, Jarvis and others have said that the majority of workers that do cross the border are Albertans coming in to work on Peace Region oil and gas operations.
Powell agreed. He said that the number of Albertans working in B.C. is likely due to the increased experience of Albertan workers, who have had more oil field experience and are willing to work cheaper than Peace Region workers.
Jarvis added that he believed that Alberta remains a "more economical" place to set up shop for oil and gas sector companies, which can help Albertan firms gather more work.
"If your overhead is 20 per cent less (in Alberta), bid can be more attractive to producers," he said.
These workers do not come without another cost to Peace Region residents, however. Jarvis said that these workers do not contribute to B.C. taxes, but they put a strain on local highways.
He pointed to a recent incident he witnessed while driving last Thursday, where the highway connecting the Peace Region to Alberta was loaded with drivers he believed were travelling between the two provinces.
"Traffic was backed up for four hours," he added.
In addition to the inconvenience of drivers, employers were forced to pay overtime rates and had to have their product delivery delayed, Jarvis said.
Jarvis believed that more oil producers should hire local B.C. companies, and his organization, Energy Services B.C., often lobbies companies to do so. If this were done, he believed that municipalities could be made more attractive to workers.
"In order to entice people over here, it's an ongoing battle," he said. "If they're not hiring locally, we can't develop the municipality, we can't compete with shopping and amenities."
Working long distances can also put a strain on the workers family life. Powell admitted that this has caused him to become conflicted.
"Every day I have a fight whether to see if I could stay in (Alberta)," he said.
But Powell said that he would find it more difficult to try and squeeze in family time on 14-hour work shifts if he were to work locally.
"I want to come home and be dedicated to the family," he said.
And people like Powell said he remains committed to his home despite the money he can find in Alberta.
A long-time resident of the community, his father, Bud Powell, was elected as a Dawson Creek city councillor, and he enjoys the people there.
Powell hoped to eventually move to the Peace Region, and believed that he would eventually work there permanently. During the warmer months, he works to repair farm equipment in his shop in Farmington.
"There's lots of things that go on," he said. "It's going to be coming to the area."
For now, though, he'll remain in Alberta for the winter. Come spring, he'll be back in the Peace, ready to spend time with his family when the weather is warmer.

Barger Takes Oakley Pro Junior Global Challenge U.S. Qualifier
Kai Barger claimed the Oakley Pro Junior Global Challenge U.S. Qualifier in an amazing display of progressive surfing alongside fellow finalists Davey Cathels (North Narrabeen, AUS), 18, who finished second, Dillon Perillo (Malibu, CA), 18, and Hawaiian charger Kiron Jabour (Haleiwa, HI), 18, with an amazing two-wave-score of 18.60 out of 20. Each surfer went wave-for-wave, unleashing massive fins-free turns and huge air reverses, but in the end, Barger's performance would go unmatched.
"Man, that Final was epic, it glassed off out there and the sets just started pumping," Barger said. "I finally got my chance to get a nice open face right and just tee off, which is what I've been waiting to do this whole time, so I'm just super stoked."
The Oakley Pro Junior victory at Lower Trestles was the first event victory for Barger since his win at the ASP World Junior Championships in Narrabeen, Australia in January, and the result came as a relief to the progressive goofy-footer.
"I'm so stoked because I felt like people would be wondering if I didn't back up my win from Worlds with another result," Barger said. "This is a solid result for me and it's good."
Cathels came from behind to bump Perillo down to the third place position with a last-second effort on a long righthand Lowers wall. The young Australian combined a variety of vicious turns and finished the wave off with a solid reverse to take second overall in the event.
"The waves are so fun out there, it's just perfect little Trestles," Cathels said. "The wave is just so rippable. Everone was getting great waves and Kai was just ripping out there. So what can you do, he's the ASP World Junior Champion for a reason. To get that second, I'm just frothing, that's what I came here to do."
Cathels, who entered the contest after just missing qualifying for the Oakley Pro Junior Global Challenge in Australia with a third-place finish, traveled to the states specifically to garner that lucrative qualification. His first trip to the U.S. resulted in just that, and he definitely hopes to come back to compete at Trestles again in the future.
"This is my first time to America and my first time to Trestles about a week ago," Cathels said. "I just fell in love with this wave. It just turned on for us in the Final. It was so good and I'd love to come back."
Both Barger and Cathels also qualified for the Oakley Pro Junior Global Challenge in Bali in October.
"Qualifying for Bali is what I'm most stoked about," Barger said before heading up to the podium. "That's the best event on the planet. I'm so stoked. I can't believe I'm going back!"
