ASTM International Committee C01 on Cement has presented the Award of Merit to David Norris, assistant plant manager at Riverside Cement, Oro Grande, California.
Lafarge SA and Holcim Ltd. hired banks to sell as much as $7 billion in assets as they try to secure antitrust approval for their planned merger, according to people with knowledge of the matter.
Lafarge and Holcim, already two of the largest cement producers in the world, will merge to create LafargeHolcim, both companies said April 7.
Lafarge has signed a partnership agreement with the US start-up Solidia Technologies® to industrialize an innovative technology that could reduce the environmental footprint of pre-cast concrete.
Lafarge Canada Inc., Canada's largest provider of solutions to the construction and development industry, today announced it has completed the acquisition of eight ready-mix manufacturing plants from James Dick Construction Limited.
Speakers have been selected for the National Ready Mixed Concrete Association's 9th annual International Concrete Sustainability Conference to be held May 12-14 just outside Boston in Cambridge, MA.
Hydromedia is designed to rapidly direct stormwater from streets and other surfaces.
Things are looking up for the top concrete producers in North America; 2012 revenue reports indicate they are gradually earning back business lost during the recession years. We rank these companies by revenue and employees (in North America only), and take a look at their growth, acquisitions...

Anybody who still thinks Grand Rapids is a stodgy and unexciting city either hasn't been there lately, in need of a big attitude adjustment — or both.
I got a powerful dose of the new Grand Rapids last week, when I was there for the West Michigan Policy Forum's annual conference.
The town was jumping — from Art Prize, the mixture of art on every street corner, to the Medical Mile, with hospitals and medical research facilities towering above as you come into town.
The Amway Grand Hotel and the Van Andel Arena are only the two most obvious ways in which a city can benefit when it boasts two billionaires whose families are deeply invested in their community.
Grand Rapids is, indeed, a place that in many ways is a monument to coherent civic leadership that works — in sharp contrast to the contentious, my-way-or-the highway attitudes that so infest Detroit and spill over into too much of southeastern Michigan.
This "right stuff" attitude is best exemplified by Fred Keller, an innovative sparkplug by trade. In private life, he's the CEO of Cascade Engineering, a manufacturing engineering outfit he founded in 1973, and which now has something like 1,000 employees.
But in the civic life of the region he's a visionary who gets things done.
"Talent 2025" is the best example. It's a group of 70 regional CEOs headed by Keller who got together three years ago to look at West Michigan's needs.
Objective: To make their area among the world's top 20 regions for talent.
In a speech to the policy conference, Keller argued that the world has changed since the late 1950s, when the U.S. was the unchallenged leader of the world in expertise.
"We are in a race for talent around the globe," he argues, citing some important data points to back that up: Michigan has, according to Gov. Rick Snyder a few months ago, 77,000 jobs that can't be filled for lack of skills and talent; high school graduation rates remain stagnant in the 70 percent range; and many kids from poor areas don't graduate at all.
Only a third of Michigan's workforce has a two-year or higher college degree. Of students beginning a four-year college program, only 60 percent graduate within six years. Nearly half of all incoming college students need at least one remedial course.
Something has to be done about this if Michigan is ever to have any shot at being competitive. Keller's key takeaway: "Increasing educational attainment in Michigan drives the economy and most of all the quality of life in the community."
The most interesting outcome so far of Talent 2025 is the growing realization that a group of business leaders can work together to successfully trigger acceptance by all aspects of the community — business and labor, town, school and gown — in one simple proposition: Increasing talent in a region helps everybody.
Keller uses the phrase "servant leaders" to describe what he and his colleagues are aiming at. And that's a perfect phrase.
What he and his colleagues are trying to build is nothing less than a comprehensive system of investment in our stock of human capital. Looked at in entirely economic terms, investing in human skills and talent generates far greater returns than sinking that same money into plant and equipment.
And investing in human capital generates a skilled workforce that is the key component of good jobs, profitable employers, a prosperous economy and a good place to live.
Plus, a system of investing in human capital at all levels does away with the silly divisions that now plague our talent-generation system: Early childhood/ kindergarten through high school/ community college/ university education.
Labels like that just serve to slow progress.
We should be framing our work as a state in just the way the folks in West Michigan are framing Talent 2025: To set about designing and building a comprehensive, transparent system that invests in the stock of human capital — in order to win the worldwide race for talent.

Top 10 Dysfunctional Onscreen Families That Are Worse Than Yours
April 27th, 2013 9:07am EDT
"The Big Wedding" will soon hit theaters with an all-star cast that includes Robert De Niro, Susan Sarandon, Katherine Heigl and Topher Grace. The movie centers around a divorced couple who have to present a united front at their adopted son's wedding and pretend that they are still married. Talk about dysfunctional! What other crazy families made the list of the top 10 dysfunctional onscreen families?
"The Simpsons"
With a beer-guzzling buffoon for a father, a nagging mother, a rebellious troublemaker son. a precocious daughter and a baby who still hasn't learned to talk after twenty five years of being on the air, "The Simpsons" are the original dysfunctional TV family. Debuting on "The Tracey Ullman Show" in 1987, creator Matt Groening actually named the characters after his own family members.
"Harold and Maude"
This 1971 cult classic is a darkly comedic movie about a young man named Harold who is obsessed with death. He regularly fakes his own suicide to annoy his mother, goes to strangers' funerals and drives a hearse. Harold finds love with an eighty year old fellow funeral-goer named Maude, but Harold's socialite mom doesn't approve, and sets him up on a series of bizarre blind dates to distract him.
"Malcolm in the Middle"
Frankie Muniz broke onto the Hollywood scene in 2000 playing a child genius named Malcolm who was constantly humiliated by his wacky family. Hairy-backed dad Hal was often on his own planet while control-freak mom Lois thought up increasingly inventive punishments to keep her kids in line. Eldest son Francis was away at military school terrorizing the commandant of Marlin Academy, the not-so-bright older brother Reese was a bully and youngest child Dewey was the victim of his brothers' torture methods. Is it any wonder Malcolm was stressed?
"Wedding Crashers"
Owen Wilson and Vince Vaughn are two buddies who crash weddings to meet and seduce women in this hilarious 2005 film. The pair meet their match when they fall in love (or lust) with two members of the Clearly family and spend a weekend at the Clearly manse. The family is presided over by a dirty-mouthed grandma, Senator father, adulterous and alcoholic mother, and gay black sheep son. Daughter Claire Clearly (Rachel McAdams) is a sweet environmental activist, but the real scene stealer is her nymphomaniac sister Gloria, played by a fantastic Isla Fisher.
"Family Guy"
This animated series is so dysfunctional that it gives "The Simpsons" a run for its money. The Griffin family consists of bumbling dad Peter, piano teacher mom Lois, poor awkward Meg (who is often ignored if not downright mocked by her family), Chris (terrified by the Evil Monkey in his closet), baby Stewie with his diabolic plans to take over the world and dog Brian, who can not only talk but also enjoys a good martini. After being canceled in 2001, DVD sales rose so high that "Family Guy" came back after a two-year break.
"Harry Potter" Series
Before he knew that he was a wizard, Harry Potter led a miserable life with his uncle, aunt and cruel cousin. Because of their strong disapproval and fear of magic, the Dursleys kept Harry in a cupboard under the stairs. Red-faced, angry Uncle Vernon, prissy Aunt Petunia and bully Dudley were so awful that Harry was thrilled to discover his magical powers and attend Hogwarts.
"The Addams Family"
This 1960's TV show was so popular that it was remade into three families in the 1990's. The deliciously macabre family is made up of a sword-fighting father, death-obsessed mother who is possibly a vampire, electric-chair loving sister, dimwitted sidekick brother, devilish uncle, witch grandmama and a disembodied hand named Thing. And don't forget Cousin It, a short creature consisting entirely of hair.
"Meet the Parents"
Greg Focker just couldn't win when he went to meet his girlfriend Pam's parents for the first time. Her overprotective father Jack (Robert De Niro) immediately hates him and puts him under surveillance. After a series of mishaps that include giving Pam's sister a black eye and losing the family cat, Mr. Jinx, Jack is finally able to accept that Greg and Pam really are in love and give them his blessing to get married.
"Married...with Children"
Premiering in 1987 and lasting for 11-seasons, "Married...with Children" is the longest-lasting live action sitcom that the Fox network has ever had. The family includes pne-time football star turned shoe salesman Al Bundy is miserable with his lot in life, wife Peggy doesn't want to do anything but sit around eating bon-bons and watching Oprah, promiscuous daughter and aspiring actress Kelly is not the sharpest knife in the drawer, and horn-dog Bud fails with women no matter what he does. But despite all of their bad luck, the Bundys stick together and really do love each other.
"Modern Family"
This mockumentary TV show has been a huge hit since it debuted in 2009. The shows revolves around three interrelated families. Sarcastic patriarch Jay loves sports, model airplanes and his much-younger wife Gloria. Sexy Colombian Gloria is a passionate woman who loves spicy food and her son Manny. Jay's daughter Claire is married to Phil, who thinks he's a "cool dad" and tries to be hip to ditzy daughter Haley, nerdy Alex, and only son Luke. Claire's brother Mitchell and his flamboyant partner Cameron have an adopted Vietnamese daughter named Lily.

Kids with ADHD Need Their SleepKids with ADHD Need Their SleepEven a little lost sleep may have a serious impact on kids with ADHDCommon sense tells us that we don't function at our best when we are tired, and any parent will tell you that lack of sleep can lead to behavior problems in children. For kids with attention deficit-hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), the impact may be even greater. A new study showed that even a little lost sleep has a serious impact on the functioning of kids with ADHD.
Making the connection between sleep and performance
The study, published in the journal, Sleep, included 43 children between 7 and 11 years old. Eleven of the children had been diagnosed with ADHD and 32 had not. None of the children were known to have sleep disorders. Medications being used to treat ADHD were discontinued before the children began the trial.
Sleep duration, sleep quality, and sleepiness were monitored during the two phases of the trial: six days when the children went to bed at their usual hour, and six days when they went to bed one hour later than usual. The children also underwent mental (cognitive) performance testing at the end of each six-day period. These tests are used to evaluate memory, attention, and reaction times, and scores reflect ability to function in ordinary daily life.
Missing sleep takes a toll
The following are the findings from the study:
- Sleep duration was reduced by an average of 40 minutes during the sleep restriction phase of the trial.
- Sleep quality diminished and sleepiness increased for all of the children with sleep restriction.
- Children with ADHD had poorer baseline scores on cognitive tests than children without ADHD.
- Cognitive test scores deteriorated in both ADHD and non-ADHD kids, but because their baseline scores were worse, most of the sleep-restricted scores in the kids with ADHD exceeded the cutoff score that is associated with behavior changes and inability to perform ordinary daily tasks.
"The present study indicates that sleep deprivation does have a significant negative impact on neurobehavioral functioning in children with ADHD even in the absence of breathing problems such as sleep apnea or sleep disordered breathing," the study's authors commented. "This finding is important because sleep problems are common in children with ADHD."
Helping your children to sleep
This study showed that even modest sleep loss can have real consequences for children with ADHD. Here are some tips for helping children get better sleep:
- Stick to a regular bedtime.
- If dinner is late, keep it light. Eating a big meal just before bed can make it hard to fall asleep.
- Make sure your child has plenty of physical activity and time outside during the day.
- Develop a relaxing bedtime routine. This may include reading your child a story or giving them a warm bath.
- Try turning off computers and television an hour or more before bedtime. Screen time close to bedtime can interfere with sleep quality.
- Experiment with turning off all wireless devices in your house before bedtime. Some children appear to be especially sensitive to the type of radiation emitted by routers, laptops, and other wireless devices.
- Talk to your doctor if your child takes medications regularly and has sleep difficulties. Certain medications, including some decongestants, asthma medicines, and stimulants used to treat ADHD, can contribute to sleep problems.

My aunt had bought this for me to try because my daughter has medical conditions and is very hyper around bed time and told me to give her a low dose and see if it helps her fall asleep because she also gives it to my cousin who has autism and said it worked well for him and now she does not have to give it to him. Its wonderful because it is taste less and my daughter does not give me any issues.Im very pleased with this product.

Comments about ENZYTE NutritionWorks Sleep Soundly:
We have 3 autistic children ages 6, 5, and 3. We have the worst problem with uncontrollable hyperness that can last till 12am-3am, you just never know. This product is safe, has been recommended by at least 20 medical professionals to use for the kids when needed. Sometimes a little morning grogginess, but that's also from not enough sleep too. Son is very picky about taste to a fault, and he WILL take this product from the dropper with no fighting. Slight sweet taste but nothing else. Kudos, thank you!

Comments about ENZYTE NutritionWorks Sleep Soundly:
I read the excellent reviews and after trying Melatonin tablets and not being able to sleep well, I decided to try this... Just my luck, it made me sleepy the first night, not sleepy enough to knock out but sleepy enough to get some rest... 2nd night, helped me fall asleep but was awake 2 hours later, took another dose after 30 mins of being awake and it did not work... I'm jealous the previous reviewers get better results than I do :(

Comments about ENZYTE NutritionWorks Sleep Soundly:
I have been a life long insomniac so falling asleep is always a battle for me. I don't like taking Tylonel PM or prescribed sleep medications because of real and/or potential side effects. Melatonin sublingual pills work, but not always.
This product has never failed me! I squeeze two droppers of Sleep Soundly under my tongue and within 15 minutes I am nodding off.
If I awaken during the night, I squeeze another dropper, go to sleep again and still don't get that awful 'hangover' feel like some products.

Comments about ENZYTE NutritionWorks Sleep Soundly:
Our doctor prescribed melatonin to our daughter who has trouble sleeping. She could stay up until after midnight every night if she didn't have melatonin. We put 2.5 in a drink and she drinks it about 30 min before bedtime. It works fine and she is rested and ready to go in the mornings. We had 6 years of very few hours sleep until our doctor told us about melatonin.

Comments about ENZYTE NutritionWorks Sleep Soundly:
I have many problems sleeping -- getting to sleep and staying asleep. I'm not sure how much I've used this stuff without the aid of something else (advil pm, ambien, etc), but I can tell you that it seems to make me sleep better, longer. I used pill form a while back, and that didn't do anything. With the liquid form, though, I can take it and seem to be ready for sleep very quickly.

A North Side man ambushed a man in a Wrigleyville bathroom Sunday morning, according to police, stabbing him in the neck with a broken beer bottle.
Gregg Greaves, 23, was charged with one felony count of aggravated battery causing great bodily harm. Greaves, who lives on the 4700 block of North Beacon Street, stabbed the man at the Red Ivy Bar at 3525 N. Clark St., Chicago Police said.
While it's not confirmed Greaves was in Wrigleyville specifically for the annual bar crawl nicknamed TBOX, the crime occurred during Saturday's Twelve Bars of Christmas pub crawl. It starts at 8 a.m. and continues all day.
According to the report, police were called to the Wrigleyville bar near the corner of Clark and Eddy streets around 12:30 Sunday morning. The 25-year-old victim told police he walked into the men's bathroom when Greaves jumped out of a stall and attacked him with a broken beer bottle.

Greaves stabbed the man in the neck causing serious injuries, police said. The victim pushed Greaves away, only to be cut on the neck again, as well as his chin and hands, according to the report.
A 30-year-old bartender walked into the bathroom to find the bloody scene. After being transferred to Advocate Illinois Masonic Medical Center in Lake View, the victim was taken into surgery and is reported to be in stable condition.
Then Greaves defecated into his bare hands and started throwing his fecal matter on the floor in the processing room.
And while police confirm Greaves was drunk at the time of the arrest, things took an unusual turn when he was taken back to the 19th District Police Station on Addison Street.
According to the report, Greaves became verbally abusive to officers during processing. He started shouting obscenities and refused to wear his pants in the station.
Then Greaves defecated into his bare hands and started throwing his fecal matter on the floor in the processing room, police said.
He is due back in court Dec. 17.

Mike Ozanian, Forbes Staff
Traffic cop at the intersection of money and sports
Manchester United has become the first sports team in the world with a $3 billion valuation.
Shares of the English soccer team, which were offered to the public last August at $14, did poorly at first but have soared the past few days. Last seen at just under $17, Manchester United's stock has outperformed the S&P 500 since its IPO and made the controlling Glazer family and legendary investor George Soros, who bought a big stake in the team shortly after it went public, wealthier.
The recent increase in its stock price has pushed up Manchester Untied's enterprise value (equity plus debt) to $3.3 billion, the highest value of any team in the world. The second most valuable sports team in the world are the NFL's Dallas Cowboys, worth $2.1 billion.
Despite a drop in first quarter earnings because of a reduction in television revenue, the appetite for shares of the 19-time English champion has increased due to brighter earnings prospects from new sponsorship deals with Japan's Kansai, and China Construction Bank, and the potential of much more lucrative English Premiership (Manchester United currently is in first place) and Champions League payouts this year.
Publicly traded sports teams have traditionally been bad investments. But thus far the Red Devils are bucking history.

I don't like Young and Welvet,because they not pass the Ball to Chicharito, now the Return from Nany is Good,is Playing Better.

Soldier of Fortune for Linux
Manufacturer: Raven Software
E-Mail: email@example.com
URL: www.lokigames.com
Price: $29.99 US
Reviewer: J. Neil Doane
Looking at the Soldier of Fortune box, I was initially struck by the number of warning labels visible, each proclaiming such things as "Violent Subject Matter" and "Animated Blood and Gore". And who can forget "Low-Violence Installation Option Included". Inside, the CD-case itself was also littered with these warnings; clearly, this game has some self-esteem issues. Without reading the manual, I loaded up the software, started the game and was met with the main menu screen. Yet even more warnings here (I was up to about nine at this point), including a scrolling text window at the bottom of the main menu whose message informed me of the game's "MA" rating and even how to access the parental controls in an appropriate menu. The net effect of all these warnings was perhaps the opposite of their intention; I felt a distinct urge to see what the heck these people were going on about.
I started up the first level. After a short introductory movie, I was in the thick of it, heading down a hallway to stop some terrorist bad guys and free their hostages. About three steps into the hall, the first bad guy swung out, leveling his pistol at me. I aimed the shotgun for a leg shot, hoping to be a nice guy. Boom! The shot cleanly REMOVED his leg and blew the detached portion a few feet behind him, leaving not only a bloody stump with an exposed femur and jetting arterial spray, but also producing a terrifically realistic scream of pain and agony from my would-be assassin as he slid to the floor clutching his bloody stump and literally moaning for a few moments before his virtual life ended. I leaned back away from the keyboard slightly with an audible, "whoa". After a short pause, a slow grin crept across my lips. "This is going to be interesting." Indeed it was.
The story for Soldier of Fortune is a sort of evil twist on the Rainbow Six story line. You're John Mullins, a mercenary of the highest caliber (no pun intended), who works on the darker side of the counter-terrorism world. You're on the team the good guys call when they want their dirty deeds done dirt cheap. The bad guys, a fanatical terrorist organization hell-bent on mass destruction, have seized some nukes. Soldier of Fortune takes you on a series of missions against this organization and its leader to recover or destroy the nukes before they can be used against the world. Each mission is worth a specified amount of money, payable upon successful completion and leads to the next mission in some way, perhaps giving clues about where the next mission should be, etc.
Unfortunately, as much as this description would seem to indicate that there is a fluid plot with specific goals, pieces to fit together and money to earn and accumulate, there really isn't. The plot itself is about as deep as a Dr. Seuss book and only randomly seems to interject coherent story line ties. The good news is that it's okay. It's a first-person shooter; we don't expect much of a plot, just a clear shot to the next bad guy and a general sense that we're getting somewhere. I admit, I kept waiting for the "hook" in the story line, the weird twist at the end that would have made it all the more interesting. When it did predictably arrive, it was a letdown, mainly because of the lack of plot development leading up to it. The aspect that you're getting paid for all this killing only enters into the game in the most tangential of ways, and no matter how much you make, you really don't get anything from the cash that you wouldn't get normally. You either win the mission and get the cash, or you play the mission until you win the mission and get the cash so you can continue to the next mission. Again, the good news is that once you start playing, the game is fun enough that you don't care.
Soldier of Fortune is, if nothing else, rather detailed in the blood-n-gore department. It uses Raven's proprietary rendering system, appropriately called GHOUL, to deliver what Raven calls "Bolt-on Gore". Using GHOUL (which also provides a number of lighting, texture, network and modeling enhancements) Soldier of Fortune's programmers were able to create individual characters that can react differently based on weapon impacts in any of 26 discrete "Gore Zones". Shoot someone in the foot, they hop around for a moment yelping in pain. Shoot someone in the throat, they grasp at their throat, gurgle, and fall to the floor. They don't always die, however. I walked around one room for five minutes trying to figure out where a soft slurping sound was coming from only to find that one of my targets was on the floor, alive, yet gurgling softly through a hole in his throat. Nice touch. You can even shoot the gun from someone's hands if your aim is good enough. Parents fear not; all the really nasty stuff in Soldier of Fortune can be controlled via the parental controls by disabling and password-protecting such things as Damage Skins, Blood, Death Animations, Dismembered Limbs (my favorite) and so-called Adult Textures (which mainly deals with the adult language used in the dialogue subtitles.)
Though the gory details are very cool, gamers expecting Rainbow Six-type combat reality are likely to be disappointed with the rather Quake-like feel of the rest of the game. Soldier of Fortune actually runs on a slightly hacked version of the Quake II engine, and you can feel some of that old blockiness in the game environment. However, Raven has done some really nice work in creating interesting levels, and some especially sick and twisted levels. Most levels are littered with the typical "unlikely FPS props" such as doors that open with the push of a big red button, first-aid boxes or conveniently located ventilation system crawl spaces. The feel of the game is a bit Duke Nukem-like (you'll see yourself twirling a gun on your finger casually as you walk along, for instance) and even at moderate levels of difficulty, the level of combat proficiency of the AI characters you fight could probably be eclipsed by that of a two-year-old in a temper tantrum. That said, all these aspects actually work in concert to make a first-person shooter that is, quite simply, incredibly fun to play.
Linux has become a key foundation for supporting today's rapidly growing IT environments. Linux is being used to deploy business applications and databases, trading on its reputation as a low-cost operating environment. For many IT organizations, Linux is a mainstay for deploying Web servers and has evolved from handling basic file, print, and utility workloads to running mission-critical applications and databases, physically, virtually, and in the cloud. As Linux grows in importance in terms of value to the business, managing Linux environments to high standards of service quality — availability, security, and performance — becomes an essential requirement for business success.

EL DORADO — As the weeks crawled by in his hospital room at Via Christi, Sean Goodwin began to contemplate a future without all the things he'd always counted on.
Playing basketball for Butler Community College kept him focused on school. Being away at school kept him out of trouble. Staying out of trouble kept him from going down the wrong path in life.
If doctors came in and told him at any point that, yes, they were going to have to amputate his leg or most of his foot, he thought all of that would fall apart.
"It was really hard," said Goodwin, a Hutchinson native. "I felt like if I'd lost my leg, I might have gone down the wrong path … so much of my motivation for school and my focus comes from basketball. I didn't want to lose that."
Last November, Goodwin, a 6-foot-6 forward, injured one of his big toes when a teammate accidentally stepped on it at a Butler practice.
Within one week, the toenail became infected and fell off. When treatments didn't work, things got scary in a hurry.
A wound-disease specialist in Wichita diagnosed Goodwin with Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) infection — a specialized antibiotic-resistant staph infection that turned the toe into an open, gaping wound and was working its way into his bones.
Any infected area that could not be treated would have to be amputated. The doctors initially planned to take off Goodwin's leg to the knee — or higher — in order to save his life. Doctors gave notice that if the skin started to break or pop overnight, to call them immediately.
"Everything the doctors tried, (Goodwin) was resistant to it ... it's a scary deal," Butler coach Mike Bargen said. "Once it gets in any part of the bone, they have to remove it. We all started to worry about his immediate future …and further beyond that."
Doctors were able, over time, to treat the infection from the knee down, but determined they couldn't save the toe. Goodwin began putting his hopes into saving, at least, part of his foot.
"Then they found a doctor who said he'd salvage my leg," Goodwin said. "He knew it was important for me to get back to my life, to try and get back to playing basketball."
Doctors amputated the top part of Goodwin's toe and took a skin graft off of his knee to cover up the wound and help the healing process — the graft was put into place to cover up the exposed tendons and ligaments as the flesh had completely rotted off parts of his foot.
"I was breaking down in tears because the toe… it looked like it was going to just fall off," said Goodwin's mother, Cyndi Sanchez. "The doctors had to remind me how far we'd come, from thinking we were going to lose the leg. That's my baby, though, I don't care how big he gets. I'm the mom, I'm going to freak out, of course. There were so many people that were so supportive of him through all of this, starting with his family and teammates and coaches and then the doctors. Everyone was behind him."
The surgery worked, and seven weeks after entering the hospital, Goodwin was out and in a walking boot. One month after that, he had a permission to wear sandals and flip flops.
"I started shooting by myself in the gym, in the spring," Goodwin said. "Then I decided to stay in El Dorado for the summer and that's when I got back into the full swing of things."
Goodwin, now a redshirt freshman, weathered another minor setback when he tore his meniscus in late October and missed a month of Butler's season. He is back now, averaging six points and three rebounds for the Grizzlies, who are 12-2 after going 10-20 last season.
"The doctors have a metal plate they put in his shoe to protect his toe, but other than that it's business as usual," Bargen said. "He had to get back in game shape, but he made it through a pretty horrible ordeal."
Butler went into the break on a high note, defeating then-No. 22 Northern Oklahoma-Tonkawa 62-61 on Saturday in El Dorado.
"Everyone on the team really cares about each other, it's a good environment," Goodwin said. "And (Bargen) is a big reason why I was able to get back to what I loved… he visited me a couple of times a week the whole time I was in the hospital and was always positive, always telling me that I was going to come back.
"That meant a lot to me because I knew, even with what I was going through, he had his own things he was dealing with. The team was struggling, his wife was pregnant, but he still made time for me. I look at him more like a father figure then as a coach… he doesn't just care about us on the court. He proved that."
Goodwin is more susceptible to MRSA now that he's had it, and any scrape of wound is treated with the utmost precaution. He takes every precaution with cleaning and treating wounds, and has a new appreciation for the life he was able to come back to.
"People believed in me, believed I could come back," Goodwin said. "It was a lot of hard work, but it was worth it."

Lindblad Expeditions
About This Line
Ships of the Line
Lindblad Expeditions currently sails ten vessels for adventure cruising to spectacular regions throughout the world. Ships are comfortable, outfitted with modern amenities, offer top-notch cuisine, and afford privileged travelers both quiet refuge and social interaction.
Delfin II. Carrying only 28 guests in 14 outside suites, this small riverboat looks somewhat ill-equipped on the surface. Once inside, however, guests will realize that the newest technology awaits with air-conditioned suites and dining areas and flat-screen plasma TVs. Wooden hammocks, a 10-person skiff for expeditions, and cuisine made from local ingredients fill out the unique experience. Guests may swim directly from the skiffs using the convenient swim ladder, weather permitting. The ships sail only in the Upper Amazon in Peru.
Jahan. The Jahan offers by far the finest accommodations on the Mekong River. She offers air-conditioned staterooms as well as good food. The maximum capacity is 48 passengers in 24 outside cabins. The ship has both a small spa with choice of massage treatments and gym. The boutique sells local artwork and textiles. DVD and iPod players are available on request.
Lord of the Glens. To tour the British Isles and Scotland in particular, the Lord of the Glens is a compact, yacht-like vessel carrying only 48 passengers. Linking many of Scotland's picturesque inland lochs, the ship was built specifically to tour the narrow Caledonian waterways and remote islands of the Inner Hebrides. For its small size, it offers spacious cabins, ample open-air viewing areas, two public lounges, and a main dining room where all meals are served. Isolated villages, dramatic castles, and scenic highlands are featured on this ship's primarily Scottish route.
National Geographic Endeavor. Built in 1996 as a fishing trawler for the North Sea, the National Geographic Endeavour was converted into a cruise ship in 1984 and sails exclusively to the Galapagos. She was refurbished in 1999 and rechristened in 2001. Just 96 passengers enjoy the bright 56 outside cabins and customized excursions among the islands. The ship is fully stabilized, allowing for smooth passage from one island to the next. It carries snorkeling gear, wet suits, kayaks, a fleet of Zodiacs, and a glass-bottom boat. Public areas include a low-key lounge and bar, library, gift shop, fitness center, and swimming pool. Services include a full-time doctor, wellness specialist, and laundry. After a relaxing day of exploration, enjoy the sauna or a massage on a one-of-a-kind floating platform. Internet access is even available.
National Geographic Explorer. This is the newest addition to the Lindblad fleet. Following a 2008 rebuild, the ship carries 148 passengers in 81 outside cabins, is fully stabilized, and designated a 1A-rated Ice-class ship, enabling it to navigate polar passages. Creature comforts include a full-service bar, restaurant, state-of-the-art A/V equipment, library, and glass-enclosed fitness center. Outfitted with kayaks and Zodiacs for shore landings, the Explorer also distinguishes itself with its team of marine experts who operate sophisticated machinery and camera equipment to capture rare images of underwater life. Other popular itineraries for the vessel include the Arctic, Antarctica, Northern Canada, West Africa, and Patagonia.
National Geographic Islander. Air-conditioned and rather private, the National Geographic Islander has only 24 cabins to accommodate 48 guests. Built as a sturdy expedition ship, she is designed to explore the Galápagos and Peru, reaching otherwise inaccessible places due to her small size. With the guidance of trained experts, passengers have access to hydrophones, untippable kayaks, snorkeling gear, underwater video cameras, video microscopes, wet suits, and Zodiac landing craft. A truly Ecuadorian flavor is present on the ship, from dining menu to crew.
National Geographic Sea Bird. The triple-deck National Geographic Sea Bird is one of two twin expedition ships used for North American cruising. It can carry 62 guests in 31 outside cabins. Small enough to access narrow waterways like the Columbia and Snake rivers, it's versatility takes passengers comfortably to explore the Baja coast and Sea of Cortez on more serious adventure cruises, outfitted with untippable kayaks, Zodiacs, and state-of-the-art underwater video and camera equipment. Marine specialists and nature experts seek out local wildlife as part of the cruise's enrichment program. Refurbished in 2005, the vessel has large covered and partially covered observation decks to view breaching whales, seaside towns, and wondrous natural landscape
National Geographic Sea Lion. Visit the glacial landscape of Alaska on the National Geographic Sea Lion, one of two Lindblad ships that sail in North America. The three-deck twin sister of the Sea Bird was built in 1982. Equipped with the latest technology and trained staff, the ship ensure passengers get an insider's view of the region and wildlife in a spontaneous and fun manner.
Oceanic Discoverer. With 35 outside cabins and carrying 68 passengers, Oceanic Discoverer explores New Zealand. Launched in 2005, the ship is fully stabilized to make long-duration ocean cruising more comfortable for passengers. Modern features include a large excursion boat big enough to carry all guests at once, laundry service, and even limited Internet access.
Sea Cloud. The historic, three-masted sailing ship built in 1931 by financier E. F. Hutton as a private sailing yacht has all the graceful lines, wooden details, and nautical charm of an antique vessel. The atmosphere on board is informal, with an "open bridge" to see how the vessel is sailed. Itineraries include the Mediterranean, Adriatic, Ionian, and Aegean seas. The intimate 58-passenger ship has only 30 updated cabins and two Owner's suites kept in their original state. For a special deal in 2013, bar tabs and all crew tips are covered on any Sea Cloud Mediterranean departure with a complimentary night stay at the Electra Palace Hotel in Athens.
