Things I liked:High quality and pretty accurate. I would recommend it.
Things I would have changed:The scope doesn't seem to hold zero. I shot it everyday for 4 days on a recent camping trip. I put approximately 300 pellets through it. Pretty accurate but I had to re-site the scope in every 50 pellets which can get frustrating. I will be replacing it.
What others should know:Great beginner to intermediate pellet rifle. Some individuals had a hard time breaking it down to load so not for everyone, especially the young.
Things I liked:Knock down power almost unmatched for its price. Pretty accurate out of the box but like everything will need broke in. Cocking effort isnt to bad for me but if you have a smaller frame could be a deferent story. Very accurate at 20 yards even with the scope it comes with. The trigger is smooth and very predictable. Wood is of a high quality with finely machined checkering. Best gun on the market for under 200 dollars.
Things I would have changed:The scope is terrible and made in china so chuck it as soon as you see it. I reccomend upgradeing to a Hawke or a Leapers scope you will be able to find one under 100 dollars easy. Trigger guard made of metal only thing thats not on the gun. Screws come loose due to recoil thread locker or even super glue can fix this. The negatives are all easily fixed.
What others should know:Rws ammo is very good in the gun and deep seating a bit doesnt hurt either. Artillery hold is very important when shooting this gun. Recoil is a beast learn to tame it. Pop can shooting has never been this fun. If your a novice it can be great to start out on. If you are an expert you should already have one. ;)
Things I liked:Can you say power? I mean total, unadulterated, awesome POWER! WOW, what a gun this is. I bought the Hatsan 95 in .25 caliber and it is the cats' meow. Beautiful walnut stock, smooth trigger action, easy to cock, dead-eye adjustable open sights and shoots like a dream rifle should.
Things I would have changed:Weaver/Picatinny rail instead of dove-tail for scope.
What others should know:I have never been a fan of the dove-tail scope mount and put on a dove-tail to Weaver adapter. I upgraded the scope to a Leapers UTG 3-9x40 Varmint/Predator Hunting scope. This rifle has some serious knock-down power and shoots accurately at 50+yds. Be sure to use cleaning patches to clean the bore out-of-box then shoot 25-50 pellets to season it before attempting to sight it in. The artillery hold or a shooting rest is a must for shooting this rifle accurately. I get half-inch 5-shot groups at 35yds using the open sights with the artillery hold. The Hatsan 95 is truly the best-kept-secret in air rifles. I recommend purchasing one (or more) before the price goes up, as I'm sure it will whenever Hatsan realizes just how much of a gem this rifle is.

If I had to choose one day to be the "pick day" of the week, that day would be Monday. We'll enjoy high pressure Feb. 25, giving us mostly sunny skies and pleasant temperatures. Don't get too used to this, though, because the rest of the week will be rather dreary.
An area of low pressure will move into our region Tuesday afternoon and linger nearby for the rest of the work and school week. Tuesday will be a breezy day with rain developing during the afternoon hours. The heaviest rain will fall Tuesday night into early Wednesday. Make sure you take that umbrella with you on Tuesday and Wednesday!
Temperatures will rise overnight Tuesday night and lead to a mild day on Wednesday. High temperatures may be between 55 and 60 if all goes right. Late Wednesday we may actually have a brief respite from the showers, so you may (fingers crossed) get to enjoy the mild temperatures after, say, 4 p.m.
We'll still be dealing with a few showers on Thursday with the low pressure system not far off the coast. It will finally begin to get far enough away from us on Friday, so we may see some sun but I still can't completely rule out leftover showers.
The weekend, as of now, looks decent. It appears to be dry but temperatures will be cooler. Sunday, March 3 will be breezy so it will feel cooler than the actual air temperature. Be sure to check out Phillyweather.net throughout the week for updated forecasts!

First lay nurse in North America
The history of Montreal cannot be told without mentioning the name of Jeanne Mance. She fully deserves to be recognized as the founder of Montreal along with Paul de Chomedey de Maisonneuve. Jeanne Mance arrived in New France a few months before Maisonneuve, and was accompanied by him when she travelled for the first time from Quebec to Montreal. Throughout her life, she worked relentlessly to ensure this French settlement in America prospered.
Our interest here lies in Jeanne Mance's roles as founder of the Hôtel-Dieu de Montréal, as administrator of this first Montreal hospital and, particularly, as nurse. She was in fact the first lay nurse to practise in North America.
Jeanne Mance was born in 1606 to a well-to-do family of state officials in Langres, France. She decided early in life to become a nurse. The Thirty Years War (1618-1648) gave her the first opportunity to practice the care she would offer the sick throughout her life.
The arrival of Jeanne Mance in New France — like that of Maisonneuve and, in 1653, that of Marguerite Bourgeoys, who would take charge of education five years later — must be understood in the context of the religious and missionary fervour that gripped France in the 17th century. At the time, Montreal was not a settlement but a missionary colony, established to convert the Aboriginal populations to Catholicism.
It was probably Jeanne Mance's cousin, Nicolas Dolebeau, a chaplain in Paris and private tutor to the Duc de Richelieu, who first spoke to her of New France. Jeanne Mance was 34 years of age at the time and discovered her vocation through their discussions about missionaries in America. A lay person devoted to serving God, she consulted her spiritual advisor, who advised her to travel to Paris to visit Père Charles Lalemant, who was in charge of the Jesuits in Canada. While in Paris, Jeanne Mance also met Madame Angélique de Bullion, widow of the French superintendent of Finance under Louis XIII and daughter of the King's secretary. She proposed that Jeanne Mance establish a hospital similar to the Hôtel-Dieu de Québec in the area that was later to become Montreal.
On May 9, 1641, Jeanne Mance boarded one of two ships leaving for New France, as did Maisonneuve, with whom she founded Montreal in September 1642. Not only did Jeanne Mance establish a hospital but, with remarkable zeal, she directed her energy towards laying the colony's very foundations. When the Montreal mission was in jeopardy, she crossed the Atlantic several times to save it from ruin.
The Hôtel-Dieu de Montréal was built in 1645. The foundation agreement was signed in Paris on January 12, 1644. Located between Rue St-Paul and Rue St-Sulpice, the modest wood building measured 60 feet long by 24 feet wide, with six beds for men and two beds for women. It was surrounded by a stockade and a trench. This hospital served Montreal until 1654, when a larger building was built. Thanks to the generosity of Madame de Bullion, the Hôtel-Dieu de Montréal was founded [translation] "on this island in the name of St. Joseph and in his honour, as a place where the country's sick and poor could be fed, cared for and administered medicine, and taught that which is essential to their salvation [...]" (Daveluy 1962, p. 108) Jeanne Mance had come to New France to be a nurse. In 1644-1645, skirmishes with the Iroquois brought her her very first patients. With the help of a servant, she prepared medicines and ointments, and cleaned wounds. We must remember that the practice of medicine in the mid-17th century was much different than medicine as we know it today.
A second agreement signed on March 17, 1648, stipulated that Jeanne Mance would remain the hospital's administrator until her death and that her living would be provided there. In the event of her death, a community of nurses would be established to serve the poor without charge (Daveluy 1962). In 1659, several years before her death, three nurses from La Flèche arrived in New France to help care for patients at the Hôtel-Dieu de Montréal.
Jeanne Mance died in 1673 with Marguerite Bourgeoys by her side. Her work has been commemorated in a number of ways: a statue by Louis-Philippe Hébert in front of the Hôtel-Dieu de Montréal; Parc Jeanne-Mance at the foot of Mont Royal, in Montreal; the Jeanne-Mance electoral riding in the greater Montreal area; and Health Canada's Jeanne-Mance building, in Ottawa.

With the days of watering, weeding and mowing behind you, getting ready for the colder months ahead is like packing for a long, well-deserved vacation. (At least that's how some of us feel.) Here's a list of what you need for your offseason "getaway." Now, hurry up and get 'er done so you can relax already!
Home Exterior
Roof: Give the shingles and flashing (metal or rubber pieces at transitions) a once-over to check for damage or potential leaks. Seal visible cracks and gaps with roofing cement.
Gutters:Clean gutters after the leaves fall, and you'll be good for the winter. Flush out downspouts with a garden hose on full-blast.
Siding and brickwork: Inspect siding and trim for damage, cracks and open joints. Caulk gaps or replace damaged materials as needed. Winter is particularly hard on brick and other mortared masonry; now's the time to have any necessary tuckpointing done to prevent further damage from water freezing inside of cracks in mortar.
Concrete and asphalt: As with mortar, water freezes in cracks in concrete and asphalt walks, patios and driveways, advancing deterioration. Seal cracks with an appropriate flexible sealant.
Thermal Envelope
Windows: Prepare storm windows by cleaning, removing screens, recaulking, etc. as needed. Check for air leakage around main window sashes, and replace weatherstripping as needed. Replace exterior caulk if necessary (don't caulk under the sill if none is there already).
Doors: Inspect weatherstripping, including the threshold strip, and replace as needed.
Roof ventilation: Inspect eave/soffit intake vents and rooftop exhaust vents to make sure insulation, nests, etc. aren't blocking airflow. If you've had ice dam problems in the past, poor ventilation is a likely cause.
Attic insulation: While you're in the attic checking the ventilation, look for areas where warm air might be rising up into the attic (the other major cause of ice dams). Make sure all ceiling penetrations are air-sealed and adequately insulated (some recessed lights can be covered with insulation; some cannot).
Filters:Replace the filter on the furnace and all ventilation equipment. Use a good furnace filter and make sure it's facing the right way (indicated by the "airflow" arrow).
HVAC check: Consider a routine professional inspection of your furnace, boiler or heat pump to make sure all is well. Also check the humidifier for cleanliness and proper function.
Air registers: Make sure all forced-air supply and return grills in the living spaces are clean and not blocked by furniture and the like.
Vent fans: Do an outdoor inspection of vent hoods and termination caps, checking flapper doors for smooth operation. Turn on the fan to make sure outflow of air is normal (no blockage in ducting). While you're at it, run the same test on the clothes dryer.
AC: Clean and cover outdoor central AC unit. Remove and store window units.
Fireplace: Have wood-burning fireplace chimneys professionally cleaned and inspected (typically every year or two) or inspect them yourself to look for nests and other blockage in the flue. Make sure the damper closes properly (and close it now so you don't forget).
Smoke/CO detectors: Replace batteries in smoke alarms and carbon monoxide detectors. CO hazards are worst in winter, when houses are shut up and furnaces and fireplaces are going.

This is the current view of VDL II since August 2011
Below is what we hope to get back to, and in future to trim some of the trees blocking the view.
Why not something like this, which is at nearby Glendale Blvd. at Deane, but do this to the right of the above scenes, at the new crosswalk, well out of sight to/from VDL?
We shift our focus now to the OTHER Neutra we hope to save for future public access; the 'Neutra Center in Silver Lake'. Donate and sign our petition; see the blog for details!
Meanwhile we continue to count for Kronish until we can report on it's fate
The Neutra Institute is conducting a National Fund Raising Campaign.
Be among many to commit and continue to change the history of preservation In our country! Our new goal is to also attract some of the richest patrons in our country to step up and make up any shortfall to repurpose this icon to 'The Neutra Center in Silver Lake'! WE NEED $5 MILLION! We propose a partnership with LACMA, to form LACMA EAST! Donations are tax exempt between the County Museum of Art and this Institute.
Can we build on the successes we achieved with our efforts for Kronish? Fans still need the opportunity to visit and experience interiors of saved Neutra examples from history!
The Neutra office Building, built 1950, is the only surviving example of Neutra Commercial Design. As such, it has been a City Monument and listed on the National Register for years. Will this make it any more successful for salvation? Situated amid a cluster of a dozen Neutra's within walking distance, it is the ideal 'central' for visitors and fans. It can also serve as HQ for the Neutra Institute.

/ Newsroom / Latest Releases / Release No. 0254.10
WASHINGTON, D.C., May 11 - Today, First Lady Michelle Obama joined Domestic Policy Council Director Melody Barnes and members of the Childhood Obesity Task Force to unveil the Task Force action plan: Solving the Problem of Childhood Obesity Within a Generation. In conjunction with the release of the action plan, Cabinet Members and Administration Officials will hold events across the country to highlight the importance of addressing childhood obesity.
"For the first time, the nation will have goals, benchmarks, and measureable outcomes that will help us tackle the childhood obesity epidemic one child, one family, and one community at a time," she said. "We want to marshal every resource - public and private sector, mayors and governors, parents and educators, business owners and health care providers, coaches and athletes - to ensure that we are providing each and every child the happy, healthy future they deserve."
In February, Obama launched the Let's Move! campaign to solve the childhood obesity epidemic within a generation. As part of this effort, President Barack Obama established the Task Force on Childhood Obesity to develop and implement an interagency plan that details a coordinated strategy, identifies key benchmarks, and outlines an action plan to solve the problem of childhood obesity within a generation.
The action plan defines solving the problem of childhood obesity in a generation as returning to a childhood obesity rate of just 5 percent by 2030, which was the rate before childhood obesity first began to rise in the late 1970s. In total, the report presents a series of 70 specific recommendations, many of which can be implemented right away. Summarizing them broadly, they include:
Like the Let's Move! initiative, the Task Force report recognizes that government alone cannot solve this challenge. Achieving the goal will require strong partnerships with the private sector. The First Lady will work with groups such as the Partnership for a Healthier America, a new foundation that will draw upon the experience of honorary vice chairs former Senator Bill Frist and Mayor Cory Booker, to cement private sector commitments towards the shared goal of reducing childhood obesity, including but not limited to the action steps in the report.
Additionally, federal agencies will be moving quickly to implement the recommendations in the report that require federal action. In the coming year alone:
In the coming weeks, Cabinet members and Administration officials will hold events that highlight the ways in which each respective agency can do its part to address the childhood obesity epidemic. Below is a summary of upcoming events. For more details, please contact cabinet agencies directly:

From our August issue: Clinical genomics...
Check out these websites from GEN's...
For companies struggling with R&D costs,...
This literature review shows how researchers...
Third Rock Ventures has ploughed $38 million into establishing MyoKardia, a drug discovery and development firm focused on developing small molecule drugs targeting genetic heart diseases, and in particular hypertrophic and dilated cardiomyopathy.
MyoKardia is harnessing a drug discovery platform that combines expertise in cardiovascular genomics with heart muscle biology and assay and protein expression capabilities to develop drugs that target the causes of heart dysfunction at its source. The firm says abnormalities at the level of the muscle sarcomere have been identified as causal in a range of heart conditions, and in particular, mutations in sarcomere proteins have been identified as responsible for hypertrophic and dilated cardiomyopathy, by rendering the muscle either 'hyper' or 'hypo' contractile.
MyoKardia's platform allows the design of mutation-specific sarcomeric allosteric modulators that effectively restore balance in heart muscle contractility, to stop and potentially reverse the course of disease. The firm hopes that ultimately its therapeutic approach could be applied to treat a broader spectrum of cardiovascular disorders, including heart failure.
"The last decade has been challenging for those pursuing novel therapies in the cardiovascular space, in part because most treatments target symptoms far downstream of the root cause," explains MyoKardia cofounder Leslie Leinwand, Ph.D., professor of molecular, cellular, and developmental biology at the University of Colorado. "MyoKardia's approach addresses this challenge head-on by employing genetics to more precisely define the disease and 'who we want to treat', and by employing cutting-edge muscle biochemistry and a novel platform to determine 'how we want to treat'. Our initial targets are genetic cardiomyopathies, but this could very well be a novel and tractable therapeutic discovery approach to even larger diseases like heart failure."

A young woman experienced car trouble late one afternoon but luckily, an old man in a tow truck stopped and offered help. Not knowing the area, she asked if he could repair the car. He agreed to do it and after hoisting the car up on the truck, the two of them took the car back to the old man's garage. He looked at the engine and made an estimate of about one hundred dollars, which she couldn't quite afford.
"Darn," she says. "Just one hunderd dollars? If you weren't such an old guy, I'd f**k you for the remainder of the bill."
"Hell, I'll show you who's old!" the old man retorted. "Take off that dress and get on the car." She giggled as she slipped off her dress and eyed the old man after he dropped his pants. He was hung like a mule!
"Oh boy!" she thought. "Not only am I going to get a great discount on the repairs, I'm going to get the hell f**ked out of me too." Then she noticed the old man placing washers on the base of his dick. "Hey, what are you doing?" the woman asked.
"Hell," the old man replied, "you think for just a hundred dollars, you're gonna get all of this?"

Unlike our previous order on a smaller ball, this one is very legible.
All of the printing is very legible, our previous order on a smaller item was not readable but this one was great.
All of the printing is very legible, our previous order on a smaller item was not readable but this one was great.
The mini footballs were a huge hit among our little league football players and parents. The thing I like least is that of the 150 balls I ordered, 8 of them arrived flat and I later discovered that 3 of them had small holes and 5 had a defect in the hole where you put the air. When I attempted to inflate them, they would not hold air - the whole would not plug up.
The footballs are of excellent quality.
Quality for the price.
The colors were exactly what I ordered. Came in four pieces short, I beleive the mail delivery person may have helped themselves.
I like that it was exactly what I ordered and that there were no suprises.
Logo was printed evenly and clearly. Product was of good quality.
I was very pleased with the entire shopping experience - the football was here on time the received so very well at our town community day.
Liked the size and material of the product. Color of the imprinting was a little more green looking than gold.
Completely satisfied; great souvenirs for those who attended our church service on the 11th
It came on time!!! :)
They were a hit at our tradeshows.
The product exceeded my expectations in terms of quality. My client absolutely loved them.
They sold very well.
Cool and very eye-catching w/ the black/yellow color scheme and just the right size!
Awesome product, great giveaway, they LOVED IT!
Branders is great to work with. Answer questions quickly and produce a great product.
I liked the novelty of the item. I will be putting the footballs in "goody bags" at a conference in New Orleans that has as its theme a tribute to the New Orleans Saints. So, seeing the footballs at a really good price made my selection easy.
Incredible Product! Great Reaction from Customers! Perfect Promotional Item!
I thought the footballs were perfect!
Great quality for the price. A little smudge on the logo, but nothing major. Would definitely reorder.
product looks good
Most-selection Least-printing off on some
Product is very popular. Had problems with the cover staying on over the battery and some of them did not work. My last order of these were flashing in the box upon arrival. Improvements have been made, but not all the bugs are worked out yet.
It was all good!!!!Thanks, Kevin
The size listed wraps from end to end...not actual height. The product is much smaller than expected.
Nice quality. Thought it would be made from cheap plastic. But the balls were very soft and bouncy.
Personally I was happy with the product but didn't leave enough time before the trade show to order.
A pretty nice product. I was a little disappointed with the printing process, as it smudged a little bit, but overall, I was satisfied.
The logo had a period (.) . yes i could have told your rep to remove it...she could have said that it looks bad with it.

Great found here Tips For Helping To Ease Arthritis
If you or someone you know suffers from arthritis, you probably already know how painful this condition is. However, when you have the right information and solid advice, living with arthritis can be easier. This article has the advice so that you can effectively treat your arthritis.
Watch out for co-morbid condition, especially depression. Arthritis and depression can lock you into a feedback loop: you're tired and in pain, so you can't do the things you love, which makes you more upset. Being upset then leads to symptom flare-ups. If you think you are depressed, speak with your doctor about a referral to a psychiatrist.
Aquatic activities and water aerobics are ideal exercises for arthritis sufferers. They help stretch muscles out and they are also quite soothing when the temperature of the water is fairly high. Joining a swim class is a good idea if you are not aware of how to do that.
It is a good idea to maintain a journal if you suffer from rheumatoid arthritis. Keeping a diary gives you a way to identify triggers that bring about your flare ups. You can also get a better idea of which treatments really help. This information should be shared with louis kraml bingham memorial your physician so he can devise a successful treatment plan. It is a priceless tool to have when you're dealing with pain.
If you are in the process of designing a new house, and you suffer from arthritis, talk to your builder to see if any modifications can be made. Make a list of things you would like to adjust. These types of modifications can help to alleviate the pain of stretching sore joints and make your day-to-day life easier.
It is important that you quit smoking if you suffer from arthritis. It is a proven medical fact that smoking can make your arthritis symptoms worse. Also, if you smoke and you are taking medications to control your arthritis symptoms, smoking can actually decrease the positive effects of these medications.
Avoid pain killers, if possible, when managing arthritis pain. The relief that these medications provides is just temporary, and you could get addicted to these medications very easily. You should use prescription drugs only as prescribed by your doctor.
Find a doctor, who is supportive of you starting a family with rheumatoid arthritis. Some rheumatologists are not comfortable providing advice or support for a woman having a child with this condition but don't be more info here discouraged. There are doctors out there who are knowledgeable about the challenges you will face.
Don't feel guilty about having arthritis. You might not feel comfortable doing some tasks with arthritis. If you allow yourself to feel pressured or guilty, you will be making the situation worse. Instead, remind yourself that this is in no way your fault, and stay positive. If a task is simply too hard given your condition, don't beat yourself up over it.
Your doctor is your best resource for pain relief choices. To prevent arthritis from getting worse, learn to treat pain that already exists. This is best achieved by talking with your doctor and asking him about treatments approved by the FDA, and anything else which could deal with the condition you have.
If you have been having trouble turning door knobs, consider having your door hardware switched out for handles instead of knobs. When you are dealing with arthritis flare ups, you can use your elbow and forearm to do the work of opening the door saving your hands the trouble.
As previously mentioned, arthritis is a painful and challenging condition that many must deal with. Learning the correct approach for dealing with your arthritis can make your life a lot easier.

…is a violent act using power and control. Sexual assault is a continuum of violence which includes rape, incest, date and acquaintance rape, marital and partner rape, sexual harassment and voyeurism.
Relationship violence...
…is when in an intimate relationship, one or both partners experiences physical, emotional or sexual abuse. Stalking is also a form of relationship violence.
Healthy relationships...
…should have trust and mutual respect. Sexual contact should only be made when clear consent is given by both partners.
The World Health Organization defines sexual health as "a state of physical, emotional, mental and social well-being related to sexuality; it is not merely the absence of disease, dysfunction or infirmity. Sexual health requires a positive and respectful approach to sexuality and sexual relationships, as well as the possibility of having pleasurable and safe sexual experiences, free of coercion, discrimination and violence. For sexual health to be attained and maintained, the sexual rights of all persons must be respected, protected and fulfilled."

It has been my unique privilege to observe and experience the remarkable ancestral gifts bestowed upon this young, strong, and vibrant Hawaiian woman- a Kumu Hula who skillfully weaves ancient tradition into the modern fabric of her daily life. Napua strives for pihana in everything that she does and in doing so, inspires everyone around her to do the same.

Mohalu is also the 12th night of the lunar cycle, an eve where planting flowers would be ideal, as these blooms would grow as full and as perfect as the moon on this night.

Hula 2
Hula is a huge part of who I am. I dance hula; I study hula; I teach hula. I sing so people can express the music in this important form of dance that defines my culture. Hula extends the meaning of that music, tells its story physically and through the heart of its people.
Hula and Hula 2 have been labors of love. I was and continue to be humbled by their success inside the hula and Hawaiian music community; by the visitor to these lands and to fans of Hawaiian music around the world. I take this opportunity to thank you for your support, for your appreciation of the music and the dance.Learn More

RESTORING RELIGIOUS LIBERTY in AMERICA
Make a Gift in Honor or in Memory of a Loved One
Our Founding Fathers considered religious liberty our "first freedom," the bedrock upon which all other freedoms rest. Sadly, our country today would be unrecognizable to our Founders. America now has a small minority of powerful leaders who are using the courts, Congress and the federal government to suppress and remove religious freedom, turning the First Amendment upside down.
In 2004, Liberty Institute President and CEO Kelly Shackelford, along with a number of the organization's clients, testified in the U.S. Senate about the growing religious hostility in America. Because the opposition insisted these select testimonies were isolated incidents, Liberty Institute collected additional information and developed the first "hostilities document." The shocking number of cases made it clear…this was a very real problem, and it affected every age, and every religious group in every community across the country.
Fast-forward ten years, and hostility toward religious liberty has reached an all-time high. America's First Freedom – the freedom of religion – is being pushed out of public life, our schools, our churches, and even our military.
To alert the nation about this very serious issue, Liberty Institute, joined by the Family Research Council (FRC), launched the 2013 Edition of Undeniable: The Survey of Hostility to Religion in America, a compilation of almost 1,200 documented incidents of religious bigotry that have occurred throughout the country – most in the past 10 years.

Although the information may seem dark, there is good news. Individuals and organizations that stand up for religious liberty can win, and are winning. Liberty Institute currently has a 99 percent win rate.
Through Undeniable: The Survey of Hostility to Religion in America, we hope to inform and empower people of faith to stand with us as we continue the important work of defending our most precious liberty – our freedom of religion

NORMAN — Editor, The Transcript:
At last, Oklahomans have something to cheer about. The University of Oklahoma women have brought home the Women's Softball World Championship.
The four senior women — Ricketts, Gascoigne, Shults and Turang — and the rest of the team have proven to be stars. Girls playing softball all over the state are dreaming of being champions. It hasn't always been that way.
Women's opportunities for competitive physical activity were limited in America until 1972 when federal legislation, the Title IX Amendment to the Education Act, became law. It required American society to recognize a woman's right to participate in athletics and education on a plane equal to that of men.
Prior to 1870, activities for women were recreational rather than competitive in nature. They were informal, ruleless; they emphasized physical activity rather than competition. Later, college sports for women were largely unrecognized because competition was within a college between students (intramural) rather than between colleges (extramural).
After Title IX, women and girls have become much more involved in sports. College women's athletic participation has increased from 15 percent in 1972 to 43 percent in 2001. High school girl's athletic participation increased from 295,000 in 1972 to 2.8 million in 2003, an increase of more than 840 percent.
Today, the NCAA sponsors 40 women's championships. The five most frequently offered college sports for women are basketball, volleyball, soccer, cross country and softball.
June 23 is the 41st anniversary of Title IX legislation. Congratulations to the OU women, and "you go, girl" for all those other women and girls out there.

Car buyers will soon browse more lavish showrooms and have more options along the Grand Strand, with several dealers renovating their lots and service areas, some moving into larger spaces and a couple of new names opening their first dealerships in the area.
The recovering economy, which has enticed some car owners who had put off buying a new ride to take the plunge, and programs by manufacturers urging upgrades at their dealerships have prompted the flurry of activity at car lots throughout Horry County, officials said.
Some area dealers said business has been growing – this year has been better than last for many of them – and it's time to refresh their lots, some of which haven't seen substantial renovations in years.
"We felt the timing was right for us," said Lee Forrest, general manager and part owner of Jud Kuhn Chevrolet in Little River. "Our facility really needed it. It was time for us to upgrade. It is going to be much, much more inviting."
The activity at area car dealers comes as the industry nationally is growing. November was the best month for car dealers nationally in nearly five years, with sales rising 15 percent from a year ago to 1.1 million, the fastest pace since January 2008, The Associated Press reported.
Americans are more confident about the economy, home values nationally are rising and hiring is up, which have contributed to the jump in sales, experts said. And in November, sales picked up as drivers replaced vehicles damaged by Hurricane Sandy or who were delayed buying their vehicle when the storm hit in late October.
Grand Strand car dealers said business has been good for them, too, thanks to a need for drivers to replace aging vehicles, an improving economy, new models and special programs aiming to lure buyers.
"Business has been pretty good," said Pat Fire, general manager of Hyatt Buick GMC in Myrtle Beach, which was one of the fastest growing Buick dealerships last year in South Carolina and recently finished a renovation. "We've had three consecutive years of steady, steady growth."
A good portion of the renovations along the Grand Strand is at GM dealerships, part of the most substantial dealer renovation project in GM history. About 88 percent of GM dealers nationwide either already have done or will be starting soon on the recommended work, among them several along the Grand Strand including Hyatt, Bell and Bell Buick GMC Trucks in Little River, Jud Kuhn and Hadwin-White in Conway.
"They just want to make sure the environment is supporting the lines, models they are introducing," said Jordan Hadwin, general manager of Hadwin-White, which is amid the renovation.
Some GM dealers are rolling in a more substantial overhaul of their lots into the GM-urged upgrades. Hadwin-White off U.S. 501 in Conway, which has been in business for 25 years, is expanding the showroom, building a new service lounge and service write-up area, among other improvements. The work started at the end of September and is expected to be complete by early spring, Hadwin said.
"It really is going to be a pretty significant overhaul," she said. "We decided to go all the way in. This is by far one of the most extensive renovations we've done."
Hyatt finished its upgrades, including a new facade and updated showroom, in October, with plans to redo the concrete parking lot starting in February, Fire said.
"Customers like it," he said. "It's more updated, more atheistically appealing ... It's a brand image."
The renovations aren't limited to GM dealers.
Sparks Toyota, which has been in business for 30 years in the Myrtle Beach area, had planned to renovate a few years ago, but put the project on hold as the economy struggled. Sparks is now ready to move forward on the nearly yearlong project, with construction set to start next month and wrap up by the end of 2013. The showroom will double in size, and the service center will expand, among other upgrades.
"It's a full facility renovation," said Michelle Bessett, the dealership's relationship manager. "It was put on hold because of the economy. ... Things are starting to turn around for us."
In addition to renovations, dealers such as Myrtle Beach Kia moved into a larger space off U.S. 501 in October and Car City, which opened off U.S. 501 two years ago and caters to buyers who can't get traditional financing, is building a new 5,000-square-foot dealership off U.S. 501 across from Wal-Mart.
The market also has lured a new dealer, Drive Time, which also specializes in selling used cars to drivers with no credit or bad credit and has nearly 100 locations across the country. It opened Dec. 7 off U.S. 501 in Conway.
"It's another place to take our brand," said Drive Time's Karl Brunner, who works at the Conway dealership. "We are just growing the business."
Car City, which has locations in Little River and the N.C. cities of Calabash, Whiteville and Lumberton, opened a small, 30-vehicle lot off U.S. 501 two years ago to test the market, said Steve Small, general manger of the Conway lot. In the beginning, Car City sold about eight cars a month, now it averages 20 to 25 a month, Small said.
The new, much larger location off U.S. 501 will have full service department, tow company and rental car company. It is on track to open in March or April.

Confessions of a Police Instructor
I Teach Cadets and Write Training Articles for Selfish Reasons
I have selfish reasons for wanting our police instructors to get better and improve the safety of our law enforcers and the society they serve. With frequent visits to the Cleveland Clinic, I have come to the realization that I will not live to a ripe old age. I have a vested interest in the next generation of police officers who will become the guardians that protect my wife and kids (maybe grandkids) after I am gone. We do not hesitate to invest in life insurance to protect our families should we not also invest in our law enforcers who will provide a lifetime of vital service for them?...

By DENISE A. RAYMO
---- — MALONE — Public Defender Thomas Soucia is seeking grant funding to ensure that Franklin County residents who need free legal help get it.
At the same time, he's on a campaign to educate potential clients about applying for help sooner instead of at the last minute so the proper attention can be paid to each case.
Soucia said that if his office does not have enough time to thoroughly go over the details and prepare for court appearances, it could mean the clients lose custody of their children or go to prison or are deported.
A one-page application is available at every municipal court, the Public Defender's Office and under the office's link on the county's website at www.franklincony.org.
It asks basic identifying information, what court is involved and the person's income and assets.
A checklist of required documents is furnished on the back of the application.
But Assigned Counsel Coordinator Jill Dyer said half the people who applied for free public-defender services in the past nine months did not include at least one of the required documents needed to determine their eligibility.
"The assumption is, if we had the person as an old client, we represent them forever," Soucia said. "But if it's a new charge, it's a new case, and we might not know about it.
"We usually know what's going on in people's lives, but if it's a new charge, we need to hear from them sooner and get a complete story of what's going on. It's to their benefit.
"It's a concern for me because we can't give them the representation they deserve without notice," Soucia said, "especially when the other side is represented by counsel and is prepared.
"The court is not sympathetic because the person was notified of their court date weeks before."
As of the end of September, the Public Defender's Office caseload was at 691, plus it handled more than 100 parole appeals.
The Conflict Defender's Office had a caseload of 480 clients, with 148 cases assigned to private attorneys when the Public Defender's Office could not represent the person for various reasons.
To combat the problems, Soucia has been awarded a total of $74,000 in indigent-legal-services funding in the past two years for investigative help, arraignment appearances and computer upgrades.
And his office has until Oct. 18 to apply for the maximum of $100,000 for a three-year competitive-grant program to hire more staff investigators.
In the meantime, he is working to educate people. If they get in legal trouble and believe they are eligible for free help, they should contact his office with by telephone, email, fax or stop by in person.
"We want to make sure everyone in Franklin County gets the services they are entitled to," Soucia said.
Email Denise A. Raymo:email@example.com
The Assigned Counsel Office of the Franklin County Public Defender's Office is on the second floor of the County Courthouse, Suite 237, and can be reached by calling 481-1423. The fax number is 481-1425, and the website is www.franklincony.org.

Oxfam is calling for more investment to go into preparing people for floods and other disasters in Pakistan as it marks its 40th year of working in the country this week.
Around the world, devastation caused by climate-related events is growing. Oxfam works on improving community resilience while calling for nations to cut emissions, commit to the Climate Fund and help the most vulnerable communities adapt to climate change.
More than 9,000 people are being helped by International agency Oxfam through its partners with safe water, following the earthquake.
Pakistan's education system is at breaking point: at least seven million children are not in primary school. To help, our girls' education program is constructing model schools.
Hundreds of thousands of people affected by Pakistan's 2012 floods disaster still need urgent help both to meet their immediate needs and to rebuild their homes and livelihoods.
International aid agency Oxfam has started an emergency response to get aid to those affected by flooding in the Sindh, Punjab and Baluchistan provinces of Pakistan. This is the third consecutive year of flooding in Pakistan and many of those affected had not fully recovered from last years' mega-floods.
Lack of funds and limited relief stocks will severely hamper the Pakistan government's and aid agencies' ability to respond to further flooding this monsoon season, a consortium of 51 international and more than 150 national humanitarian organisations warned today.
A recent influx of 63,000 displaced families – bringing the total to almost half a million people – into the Districts of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa has sparked grave concerns among international and national NGOs in Pakistan. Oxfam is calling for financial support from the government and donor agencies to ensure the urgent needs of those displaced from their homes are met.

Feb. 15, 2013
Another day and another breakdown of one of Florida State's 2013 signees. This time it's three-star offensive lineman Wilson Bell.
A former UCF commitment, Bell saw his recruiting skyrocket in the month of January when he was offered by Ole Miss, Auburn and FSU within days of each other. The increased interest from some of the bigger names in the world of college football led to Bell's eventual de-commitment from the Knights on Jan. 28 before he wound up choosing the Seminoles after much debate between them, the Rebels and the Tigers.
So, why did Bell choose FSU? And what type of player are the 'Noles getting in the Blount, Ala. native?
The 6-foot-4, 305-pound lineman was recruited to Florida State to play offensive tackle where the Seminoles have an opening on the right side following the early departure of Menelik Watson to the NFL. The chance to compete for that spot as well as the opportunity to play for FSU offensive line coach Rick Trickett was what ultimately sold Bell on Tallahassee.
[Video: Bell's official highlight reel]
He won't be coached by Jeremy Pruitt, but FSU fans can thank the new defensive coordinator for his help in landing the big man. Pruitt's ties to the state of Alabama came in handy when he traveled with Trickett to visit Bell late in the process.
As for the player that FSU is getting, Bell has an immense frame that is capable of adding good weight and strength. He has long arms and big hands and has the chance to be a special player with hard work, dedication and a full "buying in" of Tricikett's system.
"He's very big, he's extremely athletic," FSU coach Jimbo Fisher said. "We've never seen the film until January. He's 6-4 and change and weighs 308, something like that, can bend – great lower body flexibility. A great physical player and in the all-star game, he dominated. He was the best linemen in that game. Very, bring and intelligent and looks you in the eye.
"He has all the intangibles – he was coached very well. He's very developed for a high school man too."
Bell's signature for FSU was critical because the Seminoles needed as many quality offensive linemen as they could manage this recruiting cycle. He'll come to Tallahassee in June with the chance to earn playing time through competition and diligent work in the weight room, film room and on the practice fields.

Between conditions on the compassionate allowances list and another program called quick disability determination — which applies to conditions like certain kinds of cancer — Social Security officials say they expect to expedite nearly 5 percent of disability claims this year.
Astrue hopes to see that number rise to somewhere between 6 and 9 percent in the next couple of years.
Making a big difference
The changes have the potential for real improvement, say people who have been through the non-expedited process.
For Marilyn Beiser, 59, it took five months to receive approval for disability benefits after she was diagnosed with early-onset Alzheimer's disease in 2009. The condition was added to the compassionate allowances list just a short time later in 2010.
The long wait for benefits created a mountain of stress for Beiser, who had struggled for years to keep jobs as symptoms slowly crippled her ability to function in a workplace. The result: Beiser could no longer work, but desperately needed income to pay her bills.
So perilous was Beiser's financial situation that she moved in with her daughter's family in Hatboro, Pa., while she waited for Social Security.
"My stomach was always in knots," says Beiser, who worried that she wouldn't be approved at all.
But finally receiving Social Security benefits made all the difference.
"I was able to breathe again," she says. "If I want to stop at McDonald's for an ice cream cone, I can."
