MCDIGGIT: Akron sophomore outside hitter Julie McDivitt recorded a school record 43 digs in Akron's 3-2 win over Miami on
November 18. McDivitt eclipsed the old mark of 39, held by Jennifer Burton vs. Central Michigan, 9/27/94. It is the McDivitt's third
appearance in the top-10 digs list. Last year, McDivitt had 37 against Ball State and 33 against Eastern Michigan.
DIAPER DANDIES: True freshmen Ashlie Case and Miranda Valentine each played well for the Zips this weekend. Case recorded
a double-double with 11 kills and 13 digs in a 3-0 sweep against Toledo. This marked Case's seventh double-double in her last 10
matches. Miranda Valentine set career highs with 18 kills, 60 attacks and three assists in a thrilling 3-2 win over Miami. She followed
that match with a 10 kill and 16 dig performance against Toledo.
AKRON'S BIG WIN: Akron's 3-2 win over Miami on November 18 was just the third time ever that the Zips have posted a win
against Miami. Miami leads the all-time series, 17-3. Prior to the Nov. 18 win, Akron's last victory over Miami was on November 11,
1995, a five-game home win. The game five score was 16-14.
CONFERENCE TOURNAMENT ACTION: The Akron Zips will entertain Ohio in the first round of the Mid-American
Conference Tournament. This marks the Zips second tournament appearance in Akron's seventh season of MAC play.
SALLEE SETS SET RECORD: Ball State sophomore Emily Sallee has established the BSU record for assists in a season. Sallee
totaled 102 assists in BSU's two matches last week to increase her career total to 1,440, breaking the previous school record of 1,432
set by Wendy Carter in 1995.
AND HAS HER EYES SET ON A FEW OTHERS: Despite being just a sophomore, Emily Sallee is on track to break the
Mid-American Conference record for assists-per-game average for a season. Sallee averaged 17.00 assists per game in BSU's two
wins last week to improve her season average to 13.58. The MAC record is 13.32. Ball State's record, which was set by Sallee last
season, is 12.84. In BSU's 18 MAC matches, she is averaging 13.97 assists per game this season.
SALLEE'S OFFENSE IS ALSO RECORD SETTING: Emily Sallee has quarterbacked Ball State to its seventh straight 20-win
season and its four MAC Championships in the 90s by setting every point of every match this season. With Sallee running the show, the
Cardinals hit .297 last week to increase their season average to .263. That easily surpasses the previous school record of .252, which
was set in 1981. Ball State is hitting .297 in MAC tilts this season. Sallee also has the team on track to break the school record for
kills-per-game average (16.21 this season, old record of 15.71 in 199 -- also her team) and assists-per-game average (14.90 this
season, old record of 14.15 in 1997 -- also her team).
HAMMONS HOT HAMMER PROPELS CARDS TO WIN OVER MARSHALL: Freshman Megan Hammons (Ball State)
moved her name right to the top of a short list of candidates for the MAC Freshman of the Year Award by putting together the best
match of her career just when her teammates needed her the most. The 6-foot outside attacker blasted nine of her match-high 17 kills
in the third game of the match against Marshall to rally BSU from a 13-10 deficit to an eventual 17-15 win. Hammons hit a career-high
.429 in the match. Over Ball State's last 11 matches, she has averaged 3.40 kills per game and a .290 attack average. What makes her
accomplishments even more impressive is the fact that eight of those matches were against teams competing in this week's
Mid-American Conference Tournament. Hammons ranks fifth on the Cardinals in digs (191) and ties for fourth in service aces (20).
ZYLKA'S ANOTHER FRESHMAN PHENOM: Like Megan Hammons, Julie Zylka (Ball State) has staked a claim as the top
freshman in the MAC this season. She is trying to join Central Michigan's Karen Histed as the only freshmen in MAC history to hit at
least .320 and average more than 1.10 blocks per game. Histed did it in 1985. Zylka, a 6-foot-1 middle attacker averaged 1.33 blocks
per game last week to improve her season average to 1.19. That is the third-highest average ever by a BSU freshman and the
10th-highest ever by a MAC freshman. Zylka is averaging 1.30 blocks per game in 18 MAC tilts this season. In addition to her
defensive prowess, Zylka is hitting .334 on the season. That is the highest attack average ever registered by a BSU freshman and the
best ever by a league freshman.
BGSU'S SEASON COMPLETE: BGSU ended the season with a pair of home losses to Northern Illinois and Western Michigan.
The Falcons compiled an overall record of 11-21 and a 4-14 MAC ledger. Despite the records, however, there were some impressive
individual numbers for Falcon players, as the following notes will illustrate.
LEWIS COMES INTO HER OWN: Junior Melissa Lewis, after a breakout season in 1997, compiled even better numbers this
year. Lewis had 461 kills in 1998, the seventh-highest single-season total in BGSU history. With a year to go in her career, she ranks
12th on the school career list with 750 kills. Lewis also had 359 digs this year, tying for ninth on that BG seasonal list. Lewis led the
Falcons in kills in 11 of the last 12 matches.
KEMERER KEEPS KILLING: Another junior, Lori Kemerer, is rising to the top of the BGSU kills list. Kemerer had 361 kills this
fall to give her 976 in her Falcon career. That total ranks eighth all-time at BGSU.
KEMERER DOES IT ALL: Kemerer also is moving up on numerous other career lists. She ends her junior campaign with career
totals of 2,545 attack attempts, ranking her eighth all-time. Kemerer also has 879 digs (10th), 90 solo blocks (seventh), 294 block
assists (fifth) and 384 total blocks (sixth). She had an even 400 digs this year, the fourth-most in a single season by a BGSU player,
and her total of 45 solo rejections ties her for seventh on that school seasonal list.
GREIG WITH THE ASSIST: Junior Heather Greig, in her first season as BGSU's full-time setter, had 1,248 assists, the fifth-most
by a Falcon player in a single season. For her career, she now ranks sixth in school annals with 1,325 helpers. This season, Greig also
hit .290, with 61 kills and just 12 errors in 169 attempts.
MATCH RECORDS SET: Although the Falcons struggled this year, the team set several single-match records. Junior Melissa Lewis
set the school record for attack attempts in a match, with 89 vs. Marshall on Nov. 6. Also, the Falcons set team records for attack
attempts (235) and kills (96) in a four-game match, setting those marks vs. St. John's at the James Madison Tournament (Sept. 19).
TALE OF TWO SEASONS: On October 10, the Falcons were 11-7 overall, and BGSU had a MAC record of 4-1. The Brown
and Orange did not win another match, however, ending the season with a school-record, 14-match losing streak. Included in that
streak were a total of five five-game losses by scores of 16-14, 15-12 (twice), 15-11 and 15-8.
BUFFALO COACH STEPS DOWN: Bob Maxwell, the all-time winningest coach in University at Buffalo volleyball history,
announced his retirement following the conclusion of the Bulls' season on Saturday versus Eastern Michigan. Maxwell has coached
Buffalo's volleyball team for the past 18 years. He concludes his tenure with a won-loss record of 409-285-8, winning his historic
400th match early in 1998. His 409 wins ranks him among the top 30 all-time among active Division I coaches.
CLOSE ONE: The Central Michigan University Chippewas closed the season with a close 3-2 win at Buffalo on Friday, Nov. 20.
The Bulls took the first two games before CMU stormed back to take the match, winning game five by a slim 15-13 margin.
PLAYOFF BOUND: The Chippewas are set to make their 10th MAC tournament appearance. CMU is 3-9 all-time in the
tournament and last qualified in 1996. The Maroon and Gold haven't won a MAC tournament match since 1982. Central will play at
No. 1-seed Miami in the first round. CMU is 0-4 against Miami in the playoffs, losing in the last two MAC tournament appearances.
Miami defeated CMU 3-2 in the Chippewas' last tournament match in 1996. CMU senior Wendy Feldman was named to the
all-tournament team that year.
CHIPPEWAS IMPROVE: CMU's 8-10 MAC regular season record was an improvement over last season's 3-13 mark. The
Chippewas finished the regular season 11-15 in interim coach Elaine Piha's first season. CMU was 9-7 over the last 16 matches of the
AULT ADDS HER NAME: CMU senior Amanda Ault has moved into fourth place in the CMU record books for career assists
with 2,640. She started in 1996 and split time with Jessica Rocho last season. Ault was the starter again this season, recording 784
assists in 73 games.
ROCKIN' ROBIN: Robin Ill is five kills away from moving into ninth place in the CMU record books for career kills. She presently
has 892. The senior also has 801 career digs, good for eighth place in the record books. Ill is one of only three players in CMU history
to record 800 career kills and 700 career digs.
RECORD BOOK WRITER: Wendy Feldman became the all-time attack attempt leader in Central Michigan history in her final
regular season match. Feldman now has 3,181 career attempts. She also ranks second in career kills (1,359), sixth in career blocks
(339) and seventh in career block solos (74).
SCOOB SETS ASSISTS MARK: Sophomore All-MAC candidate Sara Uehlin reset the Eastern record for assists in a season after
setting 1,427 times this season. She eclipses the previous mark of 1,421 held by EMU All-Star Sherry Anderson (1990). "Scoob" now
stands third all-time in career assists with 2,582.
HUTTON JUST MISSES MILESTONE: Junior All-MAC candidate Jill Hutton has already etched her name in Eastern Michigan
history and will do so next season after just missing the EMU career mark for block assists. Hutton finished the season with the
second-best season performance with 111 block assists to give her 284 for her career. That is just five away from break the all-time
mark of 288 held by Stacy Graham (1988-91).
IRONMAN STREAK CONTINUES NEXT SEASON: Sophomore Sara Uehlin and junior Jill Hutton continued their streak of
consecutive matches played during the 1998 season and will have to wait until next season to add to them. Uehlin has not missed a
match or game her entire young career. She has played in 56 straight matches, with 56 straight starts at setter and has complied 208
consecutive games played. Hutton has not missed a match in her entire Eastern career as she has played in 84 straight matches.
WITH TWO GONE, YOUNG CORE RETURNS: With the loss of only two seniors - Sara Arndt and Cintia Runha - the Eagles
return 12 players for next season. The experience gained this season will only be a plus for the future. Next year's seniors Lucy Atkins,
Jill Hutton, Dana Krete and Karen Simpson are Coach Berrington's first Eastern recruiting class.
CLOSE TO THE RECORDS: Eastern Michigan junior Jill Hutton has 284 career block assists, which moves her to second all-time.
She is just four away from setting the mark held by Stacy Graham (1988-91) with 288. Hutton also is fourth all-time with 77 block
solos. Roxanne Munch (1986-89) holds the all-time mark with 140 block solos. Sophomore Sara Uehlin is the fourth player in EMU
history to break 2,000 assists for a career with 2,582. She now stands third all-time in career assists. The all-time mark is held by
EMU All-Star Sherry Anderson (1987-90) with 4,513.
KENT SEASON WRAP UP: Kent finished the season with an 11-21 overall mark and a 5-13 MAC slate. Saturday's match against
NIU marked the final matches of career for middle blocker Becky Neglia and defensive specialist Adrienne Rigdon. The duo went
69-57 with two trips to the MAC Tournament and an appearance in the 1996 final. Neglia will leave Kent with her name firmly etched
in the record books. She became the first player with 1500 kills (1533) and moved into fifth place on the MAC kills list. Neglia also is
first in kills per game (3.46), hitting percentage (.291), block assists (372) and ranks second in digs (963) and total blocks (433).
1000 KILL PLATEAU: Marshall senior outside hitter Michelle Sammarco became just the fifth player in Marshall history to reach the
1,000-kill milestone for her career versus Morehead State. Sammarco needed just 10 kills entering the match, but reeled off a
career-high 29 to help the Herd come back from a 0-2 deficit. Sammarco also hit a career-best .412 for the match.
SET THE BALL: Junior setter Nicole Frizzo had a big week in the history department. On Tuesday, she broke her own single-match
assist record with 87 helpers. Frizzo also had the old record of 86 that she set versus Akron last season. She followed that up with a
38-assist performance that put her over the 4,000 mark for her career. She is the only Herd player ever to have three 1,000-assist
NEW ARENA RECORD: Senior outside hitter Jenni Corbin established a new Ball State University Arena record with five service
aces in the Herd's loss to the Cardinals on Saturday. Corbin is now third on the team with 31 aces on the season.
20-WIN SEASON: The Herd reached the 20-win plateau for just the third time since 1983. The last time was 1996 when the
Marshall won the Southern Conference regular season championship.
MARSHALL COACH STEFFI LEGALL: Head coach Steffi Legall is now 32-31 in her two seasons at Marshall. The 32 wins is
the third-highest total for coaches in their first two seasons at MU. Linda Holmes won 43 games in 1976 and 1977, while Susan
Steadman earned 46 victories in her only two seasons of 1995 and 1996. Including Legall, the Herd has had 11 head coaches in 26
seasons of competition.
CONSISTENCY COUNTS: Consistency in performance from all of Miami's mainstays in the lineup has been a key to the
RedHawks earning their fourth consecutive MAC title. Julie Sterk, Maggie Clark, Mindy Collins and Alissia Thompson are all
averaging over three kills per game. Collins, Thompson, Clark, Jamie Hales and Kerry Hardek are all above the 200-dig mark for the
season, and, along with Lori Moehring, have each amassed over 20 aces on the season. Seven Miami players are in double digits for
blocks this season, with Sterk leading the way with 116.
20/20 VISION: With the RedHawks win over Toledo on Nov. 1, Miami secured its fourth consecutive 20 win season. During the
1995 and 1996 seasons, Miami recorded 24-7 records. Last year, the RedHawks compiled a 23-8 mark. This is 14th 20+ win season
in the program's history, which dates back to 1974.
MIAMI RANKED 30TH IN NATION: The RedHawks ranked 30th in the nation in the Nov. 16 USA Today Top 25 Coaches
Poll. Miami, which received 11 points this week, has received votes nine of the 11 weeks and has earned points in the poll eight
consecutive weeks.
CALLING ON COLLINS: Junior Mindy Collins is leading the team this season in digs (337), averaging 3.15 per game, and is tied
for first in service aces (37). She ranks third in blocks (62). Averaging 3.16 kills per game, Collins ranks fourth in kills (338).
HARDEK SETTIN' PRETTY: Junior Kerry Hardek is quickly placing her name on the Miami charts. Amassing 1,358 assists this
season, Hardek is already ranked seventh at Miami in assists in a season. She is only one assist away from the No. 6 total and nine
away from Jessica Stout's 1997 total of 1,367. Hardek, who ranked fourth in the conference last week, is averaging 12.69 assists per
game. She has helped Miami to a third place conference ranking in assists.
CLARK ON THE MARK: Senior Maggie Clark (Miami) is leading the team in kills (364) and is tied for first on the team in service
aces (37) and is second on the team in digs (335). Clark has 922 career digs and jumped to ninth at Miami for career digs. She also
has 952 career kills, and has tallied 11 or more kills in 20 of Miami's 30 matches this season.
CONDIT-SATION: In her 15th season at the Miami helm, Carolyn Condit tries to continue bettering her 306-174 Miami record.
She recorded her 300th Miami victory at Bowling Green on Oct. 21 and earned her 400th career triumph at Central Michigan on Oct.
25. Over the past 14 years, Condit's teams have made four NCAA appearances, played in two NIVC tournaments, and won four
MAC titles. She is the winningest coach in Miami history and currently has the most conference victories of any active volleyball coach
in the MAC with a 160-62 mark, a .721 winning percentage.
STERK ALERT: Senior Julie Sterk has been a pillar of strength in the Miami lineup this season. She leads the team in blocks with
116, ranking fourth on the career solo block chart (75) and sixth on the block assist list (296). Sterk also placed her name on the
Miami career kill chart this season with 1,121 to date. Leading the team in hitting percentage (.312) this season, Sterk rates seventh in
the MAC in this category and has helped Miami to a third-place hitting percentage ranking in the MAC.
HOME SWEET HOME: Miami owns a 14-1 mark in Millett Hall this season for a .933 home court winning percentage. In 1997,
Miami won 14 of its 16 home matches, an .875 winning percentage. The RedHawks held an eight-game Millett Hall winning streak until
the final of the MAC Tournament against Northern Illinois. Since its three-game win over Alabama on Sept. 12, Miami has recorded
10 consecutive wins at Millett. Dating back to the 1994 season, Miami has attained an .836 win record (61-12) at home.
NORTHERN ILLINOIS RECAP: With this season's tri-championship with Miami and Ball State, Northern Illinois has won eight
regular-season titles under head coach Pete Waite. The first-place finishes come in conference affiliations with the North Star
Conference (1989-91), Mid-Continent Conference (1992-93), Midwestern Collegiate Conference (1994-96) and Mid-American
(1997-98). Since rejoining the MAC in 1997, NIU has played 37 Mid-Am matches and won 32 of them. Twenty-five of the 32 wins
were 3-0 sweeps. The Huskies have only been swept twice in MAC competition. NIU head coach Pete Waite maintains a 263-100
career record.
FIRST POST-SEASON TRIP: Ohio qualifies for the MAC Tournament as the fifth seed. It's the first trip ever for the Bobcats. Ohio
finished the regular season with a 20-13 overall mark and a 12-6 MAC slate.
COWLING SETS THE SCHOOL RECORD: Against Ball State, Ohio setter Carolyn Cowling set a school record for assists in a
season with 1357. She eclipsed the old mark of 1271.
OTHER OHIO NOTABLES: Also against Ball State, Ohio's Amber Merrill picked up her 400th kill of the season. Junior outside
hitter Katie Mullen needs 13 to reach 400 as well.
ASHLEY CLARK STEPS IT UP: Junior setter Ashley Clark (Toledo) stepped it up in her initial campaign with the Rockets. She led
the team in attack percentage (.267) and assists (864). Clark also achieved a team-high six double-doubles.
CLOSING IN ON THE RECORD: Stefanie Rotunno and Traci Morin both had brushes with the Western
Michigan Bronco record book Saturday against Bowling Green. Rotunno was one service ace shy of setting a new school record for
aces in a three-game match. She had six against the Falcons. Morin's five aces left her one ace shy of tying the record she matched with
six aces against Iowa State. The record is now held by five players.
COLE TURNS IT UP: Andrea Cole hit .323 (28-8-62) in WMU's two matches last weekend. She heads into the conference
tournament as one of the hottest Broncos. Cole is hitting .353 (77-22-156) in Western's last seven matches. She has reached double
figures in kills four times during that span.
19 WIN TOTAL: The Broncos' 19 overall victories are the team's second best total in the past six seasons, surpassed only by the
1996 squad's 20 wins. Western's 11 MAC victories are the team's best in the past seven seasons. The 1991 edition of the Broncos
also won 11 league matches.
DOUBLE-DOUBLE ACTION: Stefannie Rotunno (Western Michigan) posted her 13th and 14th double-doubles of the year
against Kent and Bowling Green. Western is 10-4 when she accomplishes that task. Rotunno has posted 30 double-doubles in her
collegiate career.
DIG THE BALL: Defensive specialist Kelly Kuharski had surgery to repair her damaged ACL and MCL on Friday. In honor of their
injured teammate, the Broncos made 71 digs against Kent on Friday, the team's second-best total in a four-game match this season.

The Economics faculty are committed to both high-quality undergraduate instruction and scholarship.
We offer two programs, the BA in Economics and, in conjunction with the Department of Mathematics, the BS in Mathematical Economics. We are proud of our record (exceptional among liberal arts colleges) in placing our graduates in highly-ranked graduate programs in Economics.
Our faculty members are dedicated to undergraduate instruction and scholarship. The courses we offer and the primary interests of individual professors span a broad spectrum, ranging from relatively technical mathematical and statistical treatments of economic theory to public policy evaluation and to intellectual history. We take pride in the quality of our teaching and in the intellectual growth and accomplishments of our students.
The great English economist Alfred Marshall (1842-1924) defined economics as "a study of mankind in the ordinary business of life; it examines that part of individual and social action which is most closely connected with the attainment and with the use of the material requisites of well being." Though increasing numbers of students have the opportunity of studying economics in high school, most students know very little about the discipline when they enroll in the introductory college course. There they learn not just the nuts and bolts of economic theory, but more importantly the usefulness of economic theory in managing their personal affairs and dealing with social and political problems. The "economic way of thinking" is indeed a powerful tool for students to take with them through the rest of their lives.
Former Wake Forest economics and mathematical economics majors are in a wide variety of professions. Our programs are excellent preparation for graduate study in law or business as well as economics and public policy. Many of our alumni go on to graduate school in these and other fields. Others move directly into professions from our undergraduate programs. Banking, financial and management consulting, medical services and pharmaceuticals, real estate and consumer products are only a few of the market areas in which alumni take jobs. Numerous other opportunities for our majors are in the non-profit and public sectors, in areas such as education, fine arts, and public administration.

Florida, Penn State, Stanford atop Panic Meter after opening weekend
Story Highlights
Reading too much into one game is dangerous, but some teams should be worried
Despite a resounding win over Michigan, Nick Saban and Alabama aren't satisfied
Plus: Ohio's rise continues; Coach Fran makes a comeback; my current BCS slate
After opening weekend, Alabama fans are feeling even better about the 2012 campaign than they were all offseason. Oklahoma fans, however, may already be counting down the days until the Thunder return.
It's always dangerous to read too much into season openers, but a number of major programs either stubbed their toes or had unusual difficulty walking in Week 1. In most cases, it's too soon to go into panic mode. In others, however, it may be wise to start bracing for the worst.
With that in mind, here is the Week 1 Panic Meter.
Don't worry, be (somewhat) happy:
Iowa (beat Northern Illinois 18-17): The Hawkeyes didn't overtake the Huskies until 2:15 remained, but the result hardly seems worth sweating. In fact, a blowout would have been more surprising. Sophomore running back Damon Bullock allayed fans' biggest preseason concern with a 30-carry, 150-yard performance. Remember, three years ago the Hawkeyes needed two blocked field goals to survive Northern Iowa in their opener and wound up in the BCS. Who knows whether 2012 will mirror 2009, but this wasn't a terrible start.
Boise State (lost 17-13 to Michigan State): Putting up just 13 points at Michigan State is easier to stomach if we concede that this Broncos team was never going to approach the dominance of Kellen Moore's squads. In fact, it's a testament to Chris Petersen's continued wizardry that Boise was in it until the end despite getting outgained 461 yards to 213. Moore's replacement, Joe Southwick, looked light years removed from his predecessor, but that was predictable. While Mountain West foe Nevada got off to a better start by beating Cal, Petersen's team will improve throughout the year.
Michigan (lost 41-14 to Alabama): Expecting Wolverines fans to stay happy after a nationally televised humiliation is admittedly asking too much, but it's probably for the best if they forget this game ever happened. Alabama's really, really good. No further explanation needed. While it's true Denard Robinson showed no discernible improvement as a passer and a rebuilding defensive line got run over even worse than anticipated, it's not worth getting too depressed unless the same thing happens against Air Force.
(Update: Starting cornerback Blake Countess is out for the year with a torn ACL. On second thought, maybe Michigan fans should start panicking.)
Try not to take up smoking:
Oklahoma (beat UTEP 24-7): The circumstances were admittedly weird. Somehow a preseason top five team wound up playing its opener in El Paso at seemingly 1 a.m. But it's never encouraging when a team dealing with questions on the offensive line and at receiver goes out and scores one touchdown in three quarters against UTEP. On the bright side: Mike Stoops' defense pitched a shutout (the Miners' touchdown came on a blocked punt). "We just weren't in synch," said Landry Jones, a disturbingly familiar refrain from late last season.
Cal (lost 31-24 to Nevada): There was no surer way to ruin all the positive energy from the Bears' debut in their freshly renovated stadium than losing to the Wolf Pack for the second time in three years. Quarterback Zach Maynard's three-series benching for missing a tutoring session may have created some bad mojo, but Maynard wasn't the problem; it was the Bears' defense, which Nevada quarterback Cody Fajardo shredded. And so, the Jeff Tedford Job Security Watch begins.
Pittsburgh (lost 31-17 to Youngstown State): Wisconsin's Rose Bowls must suddenly seem so long ago for new Pitt coach Paul Chryst. The ACC-bound Panthers provided some karmic fodder for Big East followers in a lopsided loss to an FCS foe. The best hope is that things will get better as star running back Ray Graham's ACL recovery continues (he was limited to 14 carries) and/or touted freshman Rushel Shell isn't suspended.
Get a Xanax prescription immediately:
Penn State (lost 24-14 to Ohio): While many outsiders anticipated this upset, any notion among Penn Staters that the players' collective unity/anger/hunger would overcome such hindrances as losing the star running back to USC was rendered moot after about the first quarter. Losing to a mid-major at home was not the ideal debut for new coach Bill O'Brien, but an 0-2 start would be even worse, and next week the Nittany Lions travel to Virginia.
Stanford (beat San Jose State 20-17): How much do the Cardinal miss not just Andrew Luck, but All-America offensive linemen Jonathan Martin and David DeCastro? In the span of a year they went from beating the Spartans 56-3 to a largely even four-quarter fight. One of the hallmarks of Luck's teams was their ridiculous success on third down (57.5 percent in 2010, 52.6 last season). On Friday night, Stanford converted 2-of-13 third downs.
Florida (beat Bowling Green 27-14): New year, same ugly offense for Will Muschamp's Gators, who produced three touchdowns and 14 penalties against their MAC foe. Muschamp spent the first half alternating quarterbacks Jacoby Brissett and Jeff Driskel before settling on Driskel in the second half. But it's not all bad. Tim Tebow's Jets kick off next week.
The 2012 season had just seen its first notable upset. A MAC team had just knocked off a traditional Big Ten power at its 100,000-seat stadium. And so of course, ESPN cut to ... Tom Rinaldi interviewing the losing coach.
Certainly, Penn State's first home game post-NCAA sanctions and first home opener in a half-century without Joe Paterno merited some unique and intensive media coverage. But there seemed to be little mention of the Nittany Lions' opponent Saturday, even after Ohio pulled out a 24-14 comeback win.
"Obviously there was huge story behind [the game]," Bobcats coach Frank Solich said Sunday. "That story got portrayed almost on a daily basis. But we also knew those that turned on the game, and those that attended it, weren't going to watch Penn State play themselves. They were going to watch Penn State play Ohio. It was a tremendous opportunity to show what we're all about."
Solich, who's been the head man in Athens since 2005 (now longer than his 1998-2003 Nebraska tenure), hopes the exposure from Saturday's victory marks the next step in his program's continued rise. The Bobcats reached their first MAC championship game in Solich's second season and returned again in 2009 and '11. Last season Ohio won 10 games for the first time since 1968 and notched the first bowl victory (over Utah State in the Idaho Potato Bowl) in school history.
Solich noted Sunday that the Bobcats' rally from a 23-10 deficit in that bowl game to a 24-23 victory very much paralleled Saturday's game in Happy Valley. Penn State, buoyed by the emotion of the day, outgained Ohio 173 yards to 52 in the first quarter, and took a 14-3 lead in the second. But Solich's team dominated the last three periods, notching 447 yards to Penn State's 173. Touted quarterback Tyler Tettleton was particularly poised and accurate, finishing 31-of-41 for 324 yards while rushing for 47 yard on nine carries.
"That's him," said Solich. "He's obviously the catalyst."
That may be, but Solich has been the key to Ohio's consistency. In a league where coaches routinely jump to a major conference at the first hint of success, Solich, 67, isn't going anywhere.
"I enjoy coaching so much it doesn't matter where I'm coaching," Solich said. "Obviously the financial rewards may be greater at one school over another, but I'm at the point in my career where I feel pretty comfortable with what I'm doing."

Customer Support
Donation Solicitation/Previous Donation
June 2005
This Customer Support Ruling
discusses whether "personal information"
in the mailpiece of an organization authorized to mail at the
Nonprofit Standard Mail rates causes the piece to be ineligible for
Standard Mail rates.
An organization that is authorized to
mail at the Nonprofit Standard Mail rates submitted a mailpiece that
contains a field that is completed by computer to show the total
amount of donations for the previous year with instructions to "keep
this notice as a receipt for tax purposes", as well as a request to
"consider making a donation meeting or exceeding the amount
contributed last year."
Domestic Mail Manual (DMM)
233.2.3* provides that mailpieces containing personal information
must be entered at First-Class Mail rates unless they are eligible
for Standard Mail or Package Services rates under the respective
provisions. DMM 243.2.2* provides that personal information may not
be included in a Standard Mail mailpiece unless three conditions are
met: the mailpiece contains explicit advertising for a product or
service for sale or lease or an explicit solicitation for a
donation; all of the personal information is directly related to the
advertising or solicitation; and the exclusive reason for inclusion
of all of the personal information is to support the advertising or
solicitation in the mailpiece.
A review of the mailpiece indicates that
it contains personal information; i.e. the amount of the previous
year's donation. In addition, the first two conditions in section
243.2.2 are met; i.e. the request to consider making a donation
meeting or exceeding the amount contributed last year is an explicit
solicitation for a donation and the personal information (the
previous year's donation) is directly related to that solicitation.
However, the mailpiece does not meet the third condition in 243.2.2
since it includes instructions to the addressee to "keep this notice
as a receipt for tax purposes." Thus, the personal information (the
amount of the previous year's donation) is not included in the
mailpiece exclusively to support the advertising or solicitation in
the mailpiece, but has a "dual use" as both a tax receipt and
support for a current request for contributions. Therefore, the
mailpiece is subject to the First-Class rates of postage.

Seeking a Portfolio Boost in Emerging Markets
Your portfolio could benefit from emerging-market exposure—in moderation.
When Americans talk about investing, they usually mean investing in U.S. assets. Of course, there is a wide world of investment opportunity beyond U.S. shores, much of it in so-called emerging markets, whose economies tend to grow faster than the developed world's for a variety of reasons. The popular Vanguard Emerging Markets ETF (symbol: VWO), which references the widely consulted MSCI Emerging Markets Index of 21 countries, is up 58 percent since the fund's March 2005 inception. The iShares MSCI EAFE Index fund (EFA), a proxy for developed-world stocks, is down about 10 percent over the same period.
Over the long term, then, the typical U.S. investor would do well to have some exposure to the world's developing economies, and there are lots of ways to get it. Among mutual funds, just to name two, Lazard's Emerging Markets Equity (LZEMX) and Oppenheimer's Developing Markets (ODMAX) "are particularly good for broad-base emerging-market funds," says Morningstar analyst William Rocco. Both have outperformed their Morningstar category in recent years, and both charge annual expenses that are below their category averages.
[See Top-Rated Emerging Market ETFs.]
But before you go shopping for emerging-market opportunities, some caveats. First, Rocco advises, look at your existing portfolio, which may already have more emerging-market exposure than you realize. A typical large-cap international fund might be 20 percent or more invested in emerging-market assets, he says.
If you want more emerging-market exposure, be sure you have two other important things: a stomach for volatility and a long time horizon. With fund investments in general, you should have a five- to 10-year time horizon, say many advisers. "With [emerging-market] funds it should be even longer," says Rocco. "This is not a place for a 25- or 30-year-old to put their housing down-payment money."
And remember that diversification is as important abroad as it is at home. "Individual investors should not be trying to pick a particular region, but rather should seek out a broad-based fund that has freedom to invest throughout the developing world," says Rocco. "It's pretty challenging for an individual investor to say 'I think India is going to do better do better than China,' or anything like that."
Also, as with any investment, be aware of the risks. Political risk, for example, might include opaque regulations, corruption, and unexpected regulatory changes. For example: Malaysia's imposition of capital controls in early 1994 set off a sharp decline in equity prices throughout Southeast Asia.
[See Should Investors Tread Into New Frontiers?]
Other risks are worth watching as well, including the value of local currencies. Currency risk is the danger that the currency of the foreign economy you're investing in will weaken, offsetting any local-currency gains in the stocks themselves. (If, in addition, the stocks themselves fall, you get hit two ways.)
Currency swings can have a huge impact—for better or worse—on investment outcomes. IndexUniverse analyst Paul Baiocchi showed on his blog recently how investors in several BRIC (Brazil, Russia, India, China) ETFs could have more or less halved their losses during the past year by hedging their currency exposure. There are no currency-hedged ETFs for the BRICs, as Baiocchi notes, but there are for other markets—the DBX MSCI Emerging Markets Hedged Equity (DBEM), for example.
Other factors to consider: Developing economies tend to be relatively small, making them more vulnerable to significant flows of foreign capital. Many investors learned this the hard way during "Asian contagion," sparked by Thailand's devaluation in July 1997.
"The most volatile funds over extended periods of time are Latin American funds, energy funds, and, not too far behind, broader emerging-market funds," says Rocco.
[See Top-Rated World Stock Funds.]
One argument in favor of emerging markets has been the idea of "decoupling"—that is, the shrinking reliance of developing economies on exports to the developed world, and economic growth based increasingly on domestic and regional demand. That, along with improved corporate governance and government finances, supposedly makes emerging markets less risky than they used to be.

Make a resolution for looking beautiful at your New Year's party with this sparkling and smoky makeup look.
Toasting to a beautiful New YearBy Charleen Gonzalez for Shine Latina
A dashing New Year's Eve party provides the perfect excuse to break out your smoky shadows and shimmer. I personally will be rocking a smoked-out, sexy look with flirty false lashes and a subtle nude lip. You could amp it up even more with a bright red lip for your next New Year's fiesta. Make it a resolution to follow along in the video below, and start 2013 with a bold look!
Start with a good base
Begin by applying a foundation with no SPF. Since it's likely you'll be taking pictures, and SPF tends to reflect light making you look pasty, opt for a base that omits this protective ingredient. I applied Laura Mercier's Oil Free Supreme Foundation with a Sigma F88 Flat Angled Kabuki. If you have dark under eye circles, be sure to also apply some concealer. I've been loving Laura Mercier's Secret Camouflage because it has two different colors in one to create the perfect shade for you. This is also a great product for Latinas who have a hard time finding the right shade of concealer for their olive skin tone. Be sure to set everything in place with powder to ensure the makeup is not going anywhere.Try a translucent pressed powder like Laura Mercier's Pressed Setting Powder with Sigma's F30 Large Powder Brush.
Watch how I create the perfect New Year's Eve look step by step:
Perfect, smoky eyes
Start by prepping your eyes with an eyeshadow base like Laura Mercier Eye Basics in Wheat. This will keep your eyeshadow from creasing or sweating off. Next, choose an eyeshadow palette with smoky shades; I love the Sigma Paris Palette. Just in case I get any fall out from the shadows, I applied a Shadow Shield to protect the makeup I've already applied. Using the included flat shader brush, pick up some of the shimmering white gold color (Versailles), and place it in the inner corners of the eyes. Using the same brush, apply the shimmery metallic taupe color (Notre Dame) to the remaining 2/3 of the lid. Now, to really smoke up the look, take the glittery matte black color (Eiffel) with a pencil brush, and apply it to the crease area.
Blending is key
To blend out the black and get rid of any harsh lines, I used Sigma's E70 Medium Angled Shading brush making wind shield wiper motions. Once the black is nicely faded, pick up a little bit of the matte maroon (Elysées), and blend a little above the black to create a transition color. Using the shimmering white gold shadow, apply it to just under the brow bone as a highlight. If you want to add a little more sparkle to the look, take a shimmer powder like MAKE UP FOR EVER's star powder, and dab it just on the middle of the lids. Taking an angled liner brush, smudge some of the matte maroon under the lower lash line. I also added a winged out line to my upper lash line with Stila's Stay all day Liquid Liner and applied a Stila's Smudgestick Waterproof Liner in Stingray to my waterline.If you really want to take the drama to the next level, try applying some false lashes like Eco Tool's Soft and Dramatic Lashes.
Learn how to expertly apply false lashes in this tutorial!
A subtle, finishing touch
Using the included brush, I applied the peachy pink blush (Pêche) from the palette to the apples of my cheeks. I also applied a light contour under my cheekbones with the NYX Matte Bronzer. To add the kind of highlight to the face that looks amazing in pictures, I used the highlighter powder (Lumiére) (included in the palette) on the highest points of my cheek bones.
I chose to keep the lips nude and subtle with Laura Mercier's Creme Lipcolor in Angelic, but feel free to go bold with a red or hot pink lip.

Globe Life Park in Arlington Parking
You have guaranteed seats. Why not guaranteed parking? Learn more.
Texas Rangers Ballpark in Arlington, loving referred to by fans as The Temple, has seen two World Series, two Big 12 Baseball Tournaments, and a myriad of TX Rangers 'W's' since its 1994 inception. One of Texas' most sought out hotpots; Rangers stadium parking lots and this American League staple stand out in congested jungle of North Texas tourist attractions.
Baseball legend and Rangers strikeout king Nolan Ryan was famously quoted saying "I always thought that there was going to be life after baseball, and so I designed that in my life I would have other interests after baseball that I would be able to step into. And I didn't realize the grip that baseball had on me and on my family." That same draw to the game affects every family that fills Rangers Ballpark parking and seating. As a matter of fact, the Texas Rangers set a new club record for home sellouts in a season during the 2012 Regular MLB season. The first record was set the year Rangers Ballpark was built. With five levels, 48,114 seats, 127 suites, great ballpark food, and a team sitting atop the AL West this record is begging to be broken.
With all those people, where is one to find a parking spot? This is where ParkWhiz comes in. We have you covered with Texas Rangers parking and off site parking. We have Rangers Ballpark parking right across the street from the main entrance and in the surrounding area. Make your whole Rangers Ballpark in Arlington experience hassle free.

Put Skyrim on the shelf to start Zelda:SS a few days ago. It is pretty good so far and I'm 5 hours in. No dungeon or boss fight yet, but it will be soon.
The storytelling which was always good is kicked-up a few notches. Sadly not fully voiced, but the 'gibberish' sounds are different for all the characters so they 'talk'. Art style is nice but a bit like a cartoon (not fully Windwaker though).
The gold controller with the integrated MotionPlus is cool just for the regular wiimote size/ esthetics. The in-game controls are dead-on, as the MP will point your sword exactly as you hold it. Some enemies need cross slashes, other vertical, etc.

Navarro, with 33 points, was the star of the show as Barça Regal confirmed the improvement that was evident against Fenerbahçe
The 7.359 fans at the Palau this evening were treated to another great exhibition of basketball, as Xavi Pascual's team brushed aside Real Madrid
Barça Regal, 96
Reial Madrid, 89
Barça Regal: Sada (7), Navarro (33), Mickeal (15), Lorbek (9) and Tomic (8) –starting five; Jasikevicius (7), Rabaseda (0), Wallace (8), Huertas (2), Jawai (7).
Real Madrid: Llull (6), Fernández (18), Suárez (2), Mirotic (12) and Begic (0) –starting five-; Carroll (11), Rodríguez (17), Reyes (10), Hettsheimer (2), Slaughter (8), Draper (3).
Breaks: 23-20, 22-24, 28-20, 23-25
Referees: Arteaga, Araña and Calatrava
Barça finished off 2012 in the best possible way – with a win against Real Madrid, beating the previously unbeaten league leaders with a massive 96 points thanks in large part to Navarro's 33 point contribution – with a 44 point valuation. Juan Carlos Navarro once again led his team to a famous win, with a flurry of 12/13 baskets and an immaculate five from five in three pointers, which brought the Palau to their feet in admiration for their captain.
With Madrid on fire this season and Barça in need of the win, this was always going to be a great game, but not many would have bet on so many points in a match up that tends to be governed by a safety first attitude, given the importance of the game to both clubs, but today provided a great display of basketball for the fans.
Navarro and Rudy set the pace
Navarro for Barça and Rudy Fernández for Real Madrid were their teams' leaders from the start and the first quarter finished with a narrow 23-20 margin, with Pascual using three different types of defensive set ups - 2-3, 2-1-2 and a mixture using Rabaseda to mark Carroll.
Navarro maintained his scoring in the second quarter, chalking up a total of 19 points in the first half – but Madrid showed why they are top of the league with Felipe Reyes leading the visitors' attacks as they dominated in the offense rebounds to move into a 34-38 lead before the hosts hit back to go in 44-43 at the break.
Navarro, Lorbek and Wallace finish off Madrid
Barça continued to look solid in the third quarter, showing no weaknesses and clearly focussed on the job in hand, they took a 66-60 lead which they then extended to nine points, 73-64, with ten minutes to play after a brilliant three pointer from Navarro.
Now Barça shut up shop and refused to let Madrid back into the game and with three pointers from Saras and Wallace, they stretched the lead to 81-66. The crowd were right behind their team, but Madrid hit back to cut their hosts' lead to eight points thanks to a flurry of points from Carrol. Now the man of the match Navarro stepped up and finished off any hope the leaders might have entertained with another three pointer, which Lorbek then repeated to ensure a well-deserved win over the previously unbeaten leaders.
