Episode #1437
Afternoon Delight & Anything Goes
Friday, September 13, 2013
This week in Studio 360, taboos are broken. Jill Soloway talks about her film Afternoon Delight, in which a married woman brings home a sex worker to be her nanny. And in our series American Icons, we look at "Anything Goes," Cole Porter's enduring anthem to being naughty — we gave the song a reboot for the age of sexting, bank bailouts, and fries with bacon. Plus, the three sisters of Haim, whose power-pop anthems refer to Fleetwood Mac as much as Rihanna.
A Van Gogh Is Born
There are not many artists, maybe none, with quite the star power of Vincent Van Gogh. Partly it's the story: the mad genius, uncelebrated in his day, who had the ultimate posthumous reversal of fortune. But largely it's the paintings he left behind when he died in 1890: singular, ahead of their time ...
A Very Adult Conversation with Jill Soloway
There are sitcoms, there are dramas, and then there are the great shows that careen back and forth, making you laugh and cry and think — shows like Six Feet Under and The United States of Tara. Both were written in part by Jill Soloway, a successful TV writer whose first feature film, Afternoon Delight ...
American Icons: Anything Goes
Cole Porter lived in Europe during the 1920s, and returned to American to write a sharp satire of this freewheeling era that has outlived the people and events it referred to. Music historian Will Friedwald explains how Frank Sinatra saved the song, and we hear a new version written by Joe Keenan.
Exclusive Bonus Track: An updated version of "Anything Goes"
Live in-Studio: Haim
The three sisters of the pop-rock band Haim have the kind of story biopic producers must dream about. Este, Danielle, and Alana Haim grew up in Southern California playing classic rock and 80s pop covers in a band called Rockinhaim with their father, a retired Israeli soccer player, and mother ...
Bonus Track: Haim, "Oh Well" (Fleetwood Mac cover) live in Studio 360

Gaiz and galz, if you like Inazuma Eleven, I reccomend joining the Inazuma Eleven Fan forum. It's like BMGf, but instead of being for Pokémon it's for I11. Oh yeah, and it's not as big as BMGf.
Catch a tail by the tiger,Take the horns by the bull,A bird in need is a friend indeed,So pull the eyes over the wool!
*intently watches until i come out and kill victini with a .50 cal sniper rifle and attacks all of you*
I'm the resident cynic of two forums.
Pokémon Claim: White Kyurem
Move Claim: Ice Burn
Item Claim: DNA Splicers (All related!)
I ran the now-defunct Claim-a-Move Thread. I also claimed Lightning Strike, Marshtomp, Motor Drive, Magic Guard, and Azure Flute (probably also expired, but who cares, as long as you know that I'm the ruler of everything).
In the 2012 era, I have unfairly won America*'s Warrior Cats Mafia (and a few ones before).

It is time to rethink the significance of design in our urbanizing world. This is one of the many things that I have learned from communities linked to Shack/Slum Dwellers International (SDI) throughout Africa, Asia, and Latin America. Design can be seen as a political tool to support the poor to bridge the divides that exist in cities in the Global South.

Right down the road from me. Raeford NC is very similar to Mayberry of TV lore...
http://www.theblaze.com/stories/n-c-...ealthy-enough/A North Carolina mom is irate after her four-year-old daughter returned home late last month with an uneaten lunch the mother had packed for the girl earlier that day. But she wasnt mad because the daughter decided to go on a hunger strike. Instead, the reason the daughter didnt eat her lunch is because someone at the school determined the lunch wasnt healthy enough and sent it back home.
The lunch that was deemed "unhealthy" by Moochelle's food nazis?
A turkey and cheese sandwich, a banana, a bag of potato chips and a box of apple juice.
Instead, the young girl was given cafeteria chicken nuggets and her mom was billed $1.22.

My grandfather Howard McGraw, a photographer for the Detroit News, likely saw the scene in his neighborhood and stopped for the shot. The airplane is an early 1940's Murray Pursuit pedal car with Army decals and machine gun mounts - worth over $1000 today if restored! And the gas pump would likely go for about $3000 restored!

The mini crock I received is totally plain. There is no red wing or oval logo as shown. It is a total disappointment. I might send it back. Of course that will cost me. This also makes me extremely reluctant to place any future orders with Duluth Pack.

So that is an excellent question! A party wall is very common in multilevel or multi unit housing. You need to first repair the FireWall with the 5/8" FireBoard. You need to tape the seams and ensure there is no voids anywhere so that air can not move from your unit to theirs.
Then you install for example some Concrete board over top.
If you are replacing the fiber glass shower unit it would go in after the firewall is repaired.
Do you have neighbors that live below you? If so you will also have fire blocking issues around the drain.
If you can post a few pictures of the set up there might be another issues that needs looking at.
DO NOT SCREW THIS UP - these codes are designed to save people's lives.
If you can not post pictures send them to me and I will do it for you.

The American Lung Association's "State of the Air 2013" report has graded Bexar County an "F,14 years in a row.
And it's because of the area's harmful level of ozone, or smog. To those who are sensitive, it can cause wheezing, coughing, asthma attacks, and even premature death.
The association's Senior Director of Environmental Health, Susannah Fuchs, tells 550 KTSA News that it's not all bad. "What we said in this report is that Bexar County has cut the year round particle polution-that's basically soot-on trend with what's happening across the whole nation, and that's good", adding that the ongoing problem is an unhealthy ozone level, or smog, a reaction of vehicle and industrial emissions exposed to heat and sunlight.
She also says "San Antonio's air is cleaner than it was 14 years ago, even a decade ago". But she cautioned "What we need to keep in mind are the steps taken by individuals, business and the community in general to reduce air polution. They need to keep happening for us to continue to clean our air up long term".

Statistics compiled by the U.S. Coast Guard show more duck and goose hunters die every year from cold water shock, hypothermia and drowning than from accidents involving firearms.
"The thing about duck hunters is they don't see themselves as boaters," said Capt. Mike Fields, boating law administrator for the Kentucky Department of Fish and Wildlife Resources. "They see a boat as a tool to use while hunting."

The high school football season may have finally ended with the 2A and 4A PIAA title games on Saturday in Hershey, but the scholastic awards season is just getting started.
Six Morning Call area players will be among the 51 players from the eastern half of Pennsylvania to receive Mini Max High School Awards from the Maxwell Football Club. The players will be honored at a dinner on Jan. 10 in Drexel Hill.
The Maxwell Club will then select one player from the group as its Pennsylvania High School Player of the Year and that player will be honored on March 1 at Harrah's in Atlantic City where he also could win the prestigious Jim Henry Award.
Past Jim Henry Award winners include Brendan Nosovitch (Central Catholic) in 2011, Dan Persa (Liberty) in 2006, Ryan Greiser (Pennridge) in 2004 and Austin Scott (Parkland) in 2002.
This year's Mini Max recipients include:
Central's Colin McDermott, who led the state in rushing with 3,293 yards rushing; Whitehall quarterback Nick Shafnisky, who threw for 1,628 yards and 14 touchdowns; Wilson quarterback Ryan Dailey, who threw for 1,882 yards and 16 touchdowns; Northern Lehigh running back and linebacker Caleb Johnson; Palmerton running back and safety Alex Vignone and Pennridge tight end/defensive end John Dubyk.
Shafnisky has verbally committed to continue his career at Lehigh and Johnson recently announced that he's headed to Harvard.
Madison Square Garden in New York City is known as the world's most famous arena and has hosted some of the biggest acts and events in entertainment and sports history from Elvis to Frank Sinatra to Ali/Frazier to Paul McCartney, Bruce Springsteen, Billy Joel and the rest of the stars at the Hurricane Sandy benefit concert last week.
But not until today will the Garden have hosted Division I collegiate wrestling dual meets.
"Grapple at the Garden" is an all-day event to benefit Beat the Streets, a nonprofit organization that helps build wrestling programs in the New York City public schools, and it will feature 14 top-notch teams, including Oklahoma State which features three-time All-American Jordan Oliver (Easton).
Also participating in the Big Apple will be Jake Llewellyn, the Hall of Fame wrestling official who is a well-known personality in the Lehigh Valley.
Llewellyn was on hand on Friday night when Freedom's gymnasium was dedicated in honor of Joseph J. McIntyre, the school's first principal.
It was fitting Llewellyn was there because he spent 35 years in education and 34 years in the Bethlehem Area School District — 30 years teaching at Freedom.
Llewellyn was also the enthusiastic announcer at BASD Stadium football games for more than a decade with his signature moments being his plugs for Dick's French Fries.
There were reports that Llewellyn had suffered a mild attack earlier this fall, but he dismissed talk of a heart attack, saying "it was just a couple of blockages."
He is healthy enough to maintain his regular schedule of officiating collegiate wrestling and was looking forward to his gig at the Garden.
"I will be working with four other officials," he said. "I have Penn State-Lock Haven [Saturday] at Penn State and then I'm going to New York. I've also got Cornell-Lehigh coming up right after the holidays.
In Sunday's event, he is scheduled to officiate Cornell-Missouri and Hofstra-Ohio State.
"I'm excited about it because I've never worked at the Garden. … this is the first time for everybody," he said. "It should be a great event."

GreatSchools Rating
A lot of love or hate opinions. My kid was testing at 2 grades above her level according to CPA but when we started at a public school we were at the same level as the other kids in his grade. I give a 1 star because of the treatment my child received. I wonder how many 5 stars reviews are really parents.
My son and many of his friends left CPA because of bullying by the principal (Mr. Carr). While there is zero tolerance for bullying between students, Mr. Carr is the biggest bully of all. Grabbing students and yelling in front of others is inappropriate behavior. Yes the test scores are above other districts, because those children who struggle with work overload are forced to leave, so Mr. Carr can be left with only the exception students. The extra long hours, shorter breaks, and hours of homework each day leave little childhood enjoyment left in the children.
This is an amazing school that understands how to prepare students for success in both academics and career readiness. The school doesn't focus on "How to Take a Test." Instead, the school tracks and creates an individualized learning plan for every student and ensures they are making progress through the use of regular assessments. As a parent, I wish all schools focused on my student to the same level. They intervene and provide remediation once a student is not making the progress they need. No student is left behind in this school. In fact, they are the top scoring district in the entire State of Ohio. That's pretty impressive. Some parents are unable to handle the rigorous expectations. CPA, however, is focused on the development of children so they can find incredible success in life. Parents who want the best for their children choose CPA. Parents who make excuses for their children should probably go somewhere else.
Without a doubt, this is the best school in Ohio. But, it's not because of the test scores. Sure, the test scores are the highest in Ohio. They are the best because of the extremely caring staff and teachers, who tirelessly work to ensure my student has the best opportunities in life. I am so happy that we found this school. My student is reading 2 years above grade level, it 1 year ahead in Math, and LOVES going to school. THANKS, CPA!!!
This school offers a challenging curriculum for all its students, pushing them to reach for more. In the few years my children have been at CPA, I have seen them become more driven in their school work. My children care about the quality of work they do and want to be successful. This is something I think CPA has taught my children. While it saddens me to see that some parents feel the teachers are over worked or not helpful, I have not dealt with this type of situation at CPA. The teachers are always willing to give me suggestions on ways to help at home.
My reviews are based on my experience in different school districts that are more organized. The school needs to spend its money paving a playground for the children not having them play in dirty muddy areas. The parking lot is a disaster as there needs to be direction and organization, it's too small and everyone is fighting for a parking space. Every week be prepared for your child to take at least 3 tests. The teachers are overwhelmed with students and the office has 6-7 people working In there with no sense of direction. Instead of investing in people in the office or a top of the line printer which sits in their office, invest in a library. Again, I wrote this review to give you a sense of what kind of environment you're putting your children into. I've attended catholic schools as a child who have had less funding so funding isn't the issue. It always comes from the leadership at the top and the staff.
This is a great school. The school offer full day kindergarten. Our original plan was to send our child there for its full day kindergarten program. Over time, we love the method that the school is using to teach and discipline our child. Our child love the school and the learning environment there. We decided to continue to have our child continue on to Grade 1 and is now planning to send our second child there too. We have also recommended the school to some of our friends and they are happy with their decision to send their child there. CPA is unique and we are glad it works out for us. It is very serious about doing things in a direct and efficient way without any foolishness or nonsense way of educating our child. They take pride of its effort and the result in educating our child. We are proud to be part of the CPA family.
I love having my children at CPA! Never have I seen teachers work so hard to make sure that my kids are prepared for the challenges they will face outside the school (after-school tutoring, title 1, saturday school). While the school does put focus on getting students ready for the OAA, they are not given OAA's every week. What is given are small quizzes by their teachers that go over what they had learned that week in class. The school offers programs for their students in and outside of school like band, volleyball, running club, writer's club, art club and an after-school latch-key program. The grounds around the school contain two playgrounds and many spaces for the teachers to take the students outside to explore. I know my one child enjoys the nature walks their teacher takes around the school during science class. Thank you CPA for all the hard work! My children and I appreciate every thing you do.
Not even two weeks into the year and already a mock OAA... Maybe the school should consider spending more time educating our children and a little less on test prep. In real life we need to know more than how to fill in the little circles on the OAA. Makes one wonder with the high test score how so many children are held back year after year.
We loved CPA the first few years but as the test scores increased, so did the arrogance of the principal. The students that take the OAAs take practice tests constantly to the point that I can't imagine them not scoring well since the OAA is similar each year. I would like to see the results of a national test. Students that do not score advanced or excelleratex are not able to attend dances, etc. and other students know their test results. Many students have lost confidence with the "if you're not first, you're last" school motto- even getting pressure from the principal to leave. My student is high performing and I don't want him to have this much pressure so young (and how to treat others). We are sad to leave but there is more to life than winning.
looking for advantages for negro male youths to better their education so they may helphe youths growing up after them
This school is awesome, my son attended this school since 2007 and now he's in 5th grade. From kindergarten to 5th grade he's been doing a fantastic job academically and socially and i believe it's because of the staff and principal (Mr. Carr). They get the students involved in their learning and have them participate in their own development; because of CPA's no non sense attitude i don't have to force my son to do homework or attend school. He gets mad at me whenever i am late getting him there and make sure he gets his homework done before he gets home in the aftercare program. I really enjoy my child attending this school and i hope they get a high school. My only grip is that they should really expand the second language curriculum(Spanish), i am not satisfied with what's provided right now.
We love CPA! Such a great environment. My daughter is excelling here. I think that the Principal & staff have exceeded my expectations. She had a wonderful teacher in kindergarten & has a just as wonderful teacher in 1st grade. Keep it up CPA!
My child had been at CPA for 7 years it was a little rocky in the beginning going through several Principals before Mr. Carr took over. There are some really great teachers at CPA very involved and teaching using methods that keep the children s attention. There are a few negatives the school really needs a library, the afterschool program is a nightmare very unorganized, Mr. Carr has done some great things i.e. Blitz but his main focus is OAA test scores, he is not very receptive to outside input and his attitude of if you don't like it feel free to find another school is very inappropriate. As a parent I never felt welcome to drop in and check on my child I was made to feel like I only needed to be available if there was a problem. It is a good school but I wouldn t call it great.
Update you system GreatSchools! :) CPA scored 112 on the Performance Index and was picked as Mosaica School of the Year again, for the 2011-2012 school year!!! We are shooting for a perfect 120 this year and I bet they'll get it! (last year the' goal was 107 - a five point improvement over the previous year, and they blew past 107, to score the 112!) Yes, as its been addressed, expanded extra curriculars would be great, and I am confidant they are on the way, but the staff has made HUGE progress to turn this school around in a very short time span.
First the positive: My child loves this school. The teachers are enthusiastic, there is a great atmosphere of school spirit and most importantly, my child is learning. The negative: The school needs a library! The playground is in need of an upgrade. I have been disappointed in the afterschool program. The head teacher is allowed to have her non school aged son there and the staff and children spend way too much time babysitting him. She is a nice woman, but not as professional and organized as the school needs. This school is receiving a lot of attention and as more parents seeking a quality education send their kids here, they are going to expect better.
We have 2 children attending "CPA" currently. Our oldest has been there for 4 years, from Kindergarten. I personally believe this is one of the best schools in all of Columbus, if not Ohio. The Principal is excellent, Teachers are caring, and the staff is friendly. There is zero tolerance for bullies at this school. They are currently looking to expand to include a high school. The Paragon curriculum is a unique teaching/learning method. I remember when i sat in on a class to see if this was the school we wanted to send our children to. I thought to myself "this is how i wish I WAS TAUGHT as a child!". "The Blitz" is also unique to CPA, it's a fun and exciting way to get the students ready for the year-end state tests. They play games and have competitions in-between the different grades/classes for prizes. It keeps the kids focused on their goals. There are a few negatives though. There are not currently very many after-school sports for the kids to play (i think soccer, and basketball are it). The active PTO is pretty small. And Pick-up/Drop-off is A NIGHTMARE! There's only one road in/out without a traffic light. The lines can be LONG, and there is inadequate parking.
Thinking of enrolling my child and was curious to see if CPA offered any sports?
The verdict is still out on this school for me but midway through the year I am not too impressed. There is no library, no phys-ed in the winter or recess for my child to find books or blow off steam from the extended hours. They do 3 "breaks" where the kids can bring in toys to play with. For afternoon pick-up I am always worried because it is chaotic and disorganized. The students just seem to rush the doors and unless I am standing right there they are confused and unsure of what to do. I am always afraid that someone will snatch them up. The Pros: doors being locked and needing to ring a buzzer to enter. The numerous amounts of camera's. The uniform concept. I am mildly concerned with my child's statements that the teachers are on the computers all day and they leave the classrooms often. All in all my child is very happy here despite things earlier mentioned. There is an enthusiasm about this school. I just cannot understand why there is not more physical education offered. An 7.5 hour school day and copious homework does not leave time for much exercise or any time for after school activities. I will update my review at the end of the school year.
I have 3 children in this school and it is AMAZING! My 2nd grader tested in te 96% for the NATION on her ITBS test, and my soon to be 1st grader tested at the middle to end of 2nd grade for reading (while in Kindergarten). Mr. Carr and Ms. Julie are great at communication with the parents, and the teachers are top notch. If you are sick of Public School issues and teachers that don't seem like they care, I would highly reccomend CPA.

CHRISTIANSBURG, Va. (AP) - A student who hid from a gunman as he shot two women at a southwest Virginia community college says he attempted to lure more students out of hiding by pretending he was a police officer.
Clara Keller told The Roanoke Times that she didn't take the bait and waited with four friends under a desk until the shootings ended Friday at New River Community College's satellite campus in Christiansburg.
Police have identified the shooter as 18-year-old Neil Allan MacInnis, a student at the college.
He is charged with two counts of malicious wounding and two counts of using a firearm in the commission of a felony. It is unclear whether he has an attorney.
The conditions of the two women injured in the shooting were not immediately available Saturday.

Online MBA
Getting an MBA online is an increasingly popular method. The proliferation of internet access and computers has made learning outside the classroom an increasingly attractive concept, providing convenience and efficiency.
However, the most important thing to be wary of when considering an online degree is the legitimacy of the institution you are attending. Online relationships have great potential, but also present a larger possibility for falsehood and deceit. Therefore, it is especially important that those interested in attending an online program do detailed research, make direct phone calls, get answers to crucial questions, and find out what really happens to graduates.
Determining Legitimacy
First, do not attend a non-accredited school. Other institutions and employers will not recognize the degree and in many states it is in fact illegal. If the school's website asserts it is accredited do a bit more research to determine if the school is accredited by a legitimate accrediting association. To determine this, check on the website of the Council for Higher Education Accreditation. It lists all recognized accrediting associations. Also Diploma Mill Police will do the research for you into the legitimacy of a program.
Selecting Programs
There are several types of schedules and timetables for online degrees, depending on the program. Some do include person-to-person classroom learning, and some are exclusively online. Determine which best suits your learning style and fits into your schedule.
Value of the Degree
Online education is a very new phenomenon, making it more risky. On paper there is no distinction between a traditional MBA and an online MBA, so in this way there is little difference. In general, it seems employers do value online degrees, recognizing that completing them is not easy, requiring discipline and commitment. Online degree completion may be especially welcomed by current employers and may promote upward advancement within a company. However, the Online MBA tends not to make it easy to move to different careers.
· Switching careers is difficult
· Networking and professional connections are generally harder to form. However, this is not true for all students. Some find little difficulty in developing long-term, even life-long online relationships.
Overall it is highly recommended that you devote a lot of time to selecting an online MBA degree program. The key to getting your money's worth from an online program is evaluating your goals and needs, the legitimacy of the institution, and the likelihood that a particular online program will help you achieve your educational and professional goals.

I have been working at MSI International
Pros – I have the latitude to run my "desk" however I like.
Cons – The position is VERY metrics driven. A certain number of calls must be made every day. The quality of calls is unimportant.
Advice to Senior Management – Be sure that when you are interviewing new candidates that you describe this as a phone only postion. No outside sales is allowed
No, I would not recommend this company to a friend
I worked at MSI International full-time for less than a year

Did you know?
The Danish government recently took bold steps in its efforts to improve the health of the Danish people. In October 2011, Denmark introduced a tax on saturated fat. Charged at the rate of DKK 16 per kg saturated fat on domestic and imported food, the tax applies to meat, cheese, butter, edible oils, margarine, spreads and snacks. The government estimates that the new levy will improve the health of the population and raise DKK 1.5 billion annually.
Many people are keeping a close eye on Denmark's so-called 'fat tax' experiment. Finland, Norway and Sweden may also introduce a similar tax. Indeed, Sweden and Norway have been considering such legislation since 2007. Finland has already introduced taxes on sugared products such as soft drinks, ice-cream and chocolate.

Waterloo Christian (3-12, 3-10) outscored C-N 17-8 in the third quarter to get within one point, but the Royals (11-7, 9-4) responded with a 21-12 fourth period to pull away for the win.

Here's how RW members rated this race (93 votes).
In short: Fast, flat course. Definite PB opportunityIn full: Well organised event. A great end to the week - a fast 5k course in a pleasant setting, with a BarBQ afterwards. Perfect unwind for runner (and family).Date of review: June 21, 2009
In short: Excellent first 5K run - got the bug now - will definatley be doing more Date of review: June 21, 2009
In short: It was our first race, so I had no great expectations apart from finishing.In full: Disappointed that there was no signage to the event, not even in village or very close proximity to the event. Even more disappointed that they booked me in under the wrong name & I wasted 10 minutes of valuable stretching time trying to find my race No & timing chip. Also disappointed that they advertised "a goody bag" that never existed (according to one or the staff). On a much happier note; The atmosphere was really good, one of the reasons I would do it again.Date of review: June 21, 2009
In short: Flat, well organised, friendlyIn full: This is a great race whether a beginner or 'pro' looking for a PB. I am neither but still enjoyed the challenge. The start could do with arranging in estimated finish time order to stop the struggle on the opening straight and it would have helped if there had not been 2 x 4k markers (I may have started my homeward struggle, oops I mean sprint later!). Really friendly bunch cheering and encouraging to the end. Thanks.Date of review: June 20, 2009
In short: great race,well organised,fun for ALL the familyDate of review: June 20, 2009

In short: Great way to spend a Friday eveningIn full: This is a lovely race; it's friendly, the organisation is great, the centre (race HQ) wonderful and with a BBQ, tea, home-made cakes and even beer to round off the evening it's as near to perfect as you can get (ok, so the bit in the middle - the actual running - hurt quite a lot but I did beat my time from last year by over a minute so it was worth the pain!).Thanks Flyers!Date of review: June 20, 2009

The Gamecocks recently were picked to finish fourth in the East Division by the league's coaches and sports information directors. Defending OVC tournament champion Belmont was picked first, followed by Morehead State and Tennessee State.
"Our expectation is always to put ourselves in the kind of position where we can win a championship," Jacksonville State coach Joseph Goodson said. "That (philosophy) has been in place since my first year here. We're physically capable and tactically capable. We just had a little bit of inconsistency last year."
Jacksonville State returns nine players from last season's team that reached the first round of the OVC tournament. While the Gamecocks look young on paper -- boasting just two seniors and three juniors on their 15-player roster -- dig a little deeper and one will find a team with more talent and experience than the eye would suggest.
"Last year we played really well in stretches, played not so well in stretches which is indicative of a young team," Goodson said. "Getting the girls to focus on the success we had … with a lot of returners it's a lot easier to get them to buy into our system. Going into this season, we have full expectation to be there at the end of the year."
JSU will be powered by a pair of sophomores on the outside: 5-foot-11 Emily Rutherford and 5-10 Taylor Long. Rutherford was third on the last year's team with 240 kills, including career highs of 19 kills and 23 digs against Austin Peay. Moreover, she was second on the team with seven double-doubles (kills and digs). Long, a left-hander from Louisville, Ky., who Goodson said "has one of the biggest arms in the conference" and will assume the role left by Jen Meyer and her team-leading 306 kills from last year's team.
"Taylor could be a huge offensive weapon for us," Goodson said.
Senior libero Kelly Cole heads the middle of the court where she ranks 11th in school history with 908 career digs, looking to become the 10th JSU player to finish with more than 1,000 career digs. Senior setter Abbey Heredia returns for her final season after finishing second on the team with both 4.28 assists a set and 13 services aces last season.
"Our two seniors have tremendous leadership," Goodson said. "Kelley has played in every match the past two seasons, except for two due to injury. Abbey has been one of our best setters for the past two years. There is a tremendous amount of experience and leadership between those two."
Two juniors, 6-3 middle blocker Nicole Merget and 5-10 setter Alina Agamy both return for their third season at JSU, and second as starters, after both garnered valuable playing time as freshman. Agamy led the Gamecocks with 6.16 assists a set in the regular season while ranking seventh in the OVC with 9.34 assists against conference foes. Merget led the team with 118 blocks and finished with 2.16 kills a set.
JSU will also add junior college transfer Victoria Cross from Dodge City Community College. Last year, Cross finished in the top 10 in the NJCAA in blocks.
Additionally, the Gamecocks will add five freshman to the roster: Molly Jo Aiken from Vestavia Hills, Kacy Clinkenbeard, Trisha Mockapetris, Liza Pflugradt and Laney Torkelson. Sophomores Kaitlyn Zelhart , Samantha Bohne and Grace Anbouda round out the roster.
"The five freshman come from outstanding club programs and are used to playing at a high level," Goodson said. "They are athletic and have really high volleyball IQ's. We want to stay the course and get our players to learn and understand our system. Then take it out on the court because clearly it's effective. We really like the team we have."
JSU opens its season with quite possibly its stiffest challenge of the year, taking on No. 6 ranked Minnesota in the UAB tournament on Aug. 30. The Golden Gophers, who finished last season at 27-8 and were within one game of reaching the NCAA Final Four, had yet to sign up to play in the UAB tournament when Goodson made arrangements for JSU to play in it. As it turns out, the Gamecocks will be tested by one of the nation's best in Birmingham.
"We use preseason (tournaments) to solidify our lineup," Goodson said. "It gives us four weeks to work the kinks and figure out who will be our main seven going into conference play. During pre-conference play we aren't as concerned with the other teams as we are with what's going on on our side of the net."
In between non-conference tournaments, JSU will play a home match on Sept. 9 at Pete Mathews Coliseum against Auburn, now coached by former Gamecock great Rick Nold. A three-time OVC coach of the year, Nold led the Gamecocks to three regular-season conference titles, three conference tournament titles and three NCAA postseason appearances during his nine-year tenure at JSU.
"It's going to be great matchup for us," Goodson said. "We're looking forward to doing exceptionally well in that match."

D'Antoni takes over Lakers

EL SEGUNDO, Calif. (AP) — Mike D'Antoni circled the court 2 feet at a time, moving smoothly on crutches while his Los Angeles Lakers went through drills orchestrated by his assistant coach and brother, Dan.
Although D'Antoni's surgically replaced knee is slowing him down a bit, he couldn't wait any longer to get the Lakers rolling.

That is why I was very happy to hear yesterday that the United States would be largely phasing out biomedical research on chimpanzees. The U.S. is the only country that still keeps chimpanzees for this type of research. Austria, New Zealand, the Netherlands the United Kingdom introduced bans on using chimpanzees for biomedical research in 2006. This is not just because using chimpanzees as guinea pigs is morally abhorrent. It is also because chimpanzees as models offer us nothing that can't be gained from using other animals as models (e.g., rats, hamsters, guinea pigs). Considering that it is cheaper, more efficient, and useful to use rodents in biomedical research, there is really no reason to continue large-scale research on our closest relatives.
The United States new proposed federal rules wouldn't limit all research, but it does place a stranglehold on new research. Here is the statement from Working Group on the National Institutes of Health (NIH) website:
"NIH will not fund any new or other competing projects (renewal and revisions) for research involving chimpanzees and will not allow any new projects to go forward with NIH-owned or supported chimpanzees."

View how our 3 Step Process encapsulates and destroys odors in a toxic free condition.
See how our products remove 100% of grime, grease, odors, oils, carbon build-up, mildew, and other substances.
So safe even humans and animals can drink our products with no worries or side-effects.
Without the use of chemicals or toxins, our organic products breaks the bonds of the very strong hydrocarbon chains and microencapsulates the individual offending molecules.
Then our products increase natures natural biodegradation process over 1,000 fold.
Natural bacteria in the surrounding environment can now eat the microencapsulated odor particulates.
The patented organic formula that is the foundation of all our products took more than a decade to produce in a lab by two eminent chemists - one of whom is the founding owner of Freshana Organic Solutions, Dr. Robert Bayless.
It was his lifelong expertise in microencapsulation that allowed our formula to be unlike any other product that is organic. An organic product that actually works, making it both safe and effective.
Though the USDA and other government entities allow companies to call their products "organic" if they still have up to 5% chemicals, poisons and toxins, Freshana does not accept that even a 5% chemical composition as being safe for consumers.
Freshana is 100% all natural.
