Colonels' second-half rally falls short vs. Demons

THIBODAUX — The weather was cold outside and so was the first-half shooting from the Nicholls State women's basketball team during Wednesday's Southland Conference game against Northwestern State in Stopher Gym.
The Colonels shot 34.4 percent from the field in the first half, and Northwestern State made 51.5 percent of its shots in the opening half, which helped the Demons take a 14-point lead at halftime.
Nicholls' shooting warmed up in the second half, using a late-rally to tie the game at 67 with 2:03 left.
But the comeback fell short as Northwestern State used rebounding and second chance opportunities in the final seconds to escape Stopher Gym with a 70-67 victory over Nicholls.
The Colonels (5-10, 0-2 in SLC) remained winless in conference play with the loss, but Nicholls coach DoBee Plaisance said she was pleased with how they rallied back in the second half. After trailing 44-30 at halftime, Nicholls outscored Northwestern State, 37-26, in the second half to put itself in a position to win the game.
"That's a testament to the character of this team," Plaisance said. "We were down by 14 to a really good Northwestern team that was shooting lights out. Hats off to these kids. They battled back. We had our opportunities at the end."
Northwestern State (8-8, 2-0 in SLC) extended its advantage to 16 points (54-38) after a layup from Jessica McPhail with 13:12 left in the second half.
The Colonels fought their way back into the game from that point, using a 15-5 run to cut it to 59-52 with 9:05 left.
The Demons were held without a field goal for the next 9:16, which allowed Nicholls to go on a 13-6 run and tie the game at 65-65 on a 3-pointer from Sumar Leslie with 3:19 left.
Following two Northwestern State free throws, Nicholls used an offensive putback from Jasmine Hoskins to tie it at 67 with 2:02 remaining.
On its next possession, Northwestern State (16 second chance points) grabbed a series of offensive rebounds that led to the go-ahead lay-up from Jordan James with 47 seconds left.
After Nicholls' Alisha Allen picked up an offensive foul with 34 seconds left, Northwestern State's Brittany Houston made 1-of-2 free throws to extend the lead to 70-67 with 19 seconds remaining.
Nicholls had one more chance to tie the game, but Ricshanda Bickham's corner 3-point attempt hit the side of the backboard with 4 seconds left, and Northwestern's Ronikka Drake grabbed the rebound to run off the final seconds.
Northwestern State won the rebounding edge, 47-41, over the Colonels. Plaisance said the Demons' second chance opportunities and rebounding hurt the Colonels at the end.
"Those missed shots really were not the case," Plaisance said. "I'm putting more on the missed rebounds and being out of position, but those kids battled hard. We're just going to go back to the drawing board (today) and get ready for Sam Houston on Saturday."
Leslie, a former Vandebilt Catholic standout who led the Colonels with 18 points, said the Colonels wanted to step up their intensity after halftime, which they did by holding Northwestern State to 34 percent shooting from the field in the second half and scoring 23 points off the Demons' 19 turnovers.
"We started to realize that we really wanted it, but we have to play like that from the start of the game," Leslie said. "We can't just relax at the beginning and say we want it in the second half. We've got to keep up the intensity throughout the game."
Other leaders for the Colonels (12 turnovers, 37 percent shooting from the field, 21.2 percent from the free-throw line and 21 percent from the 3-point line in the game) were Bickham (16 points, seven rebounds) and Cassie Hearon (11 points, four steals).
James led the Demons (43.5 percent from the field for the game) with 24 points and nine rebounds, while McPhail added 21 points and Houston scored 14 points.
At Natchitoches, Devon Baker and Shamir Davis scored 12 points each to lead five Northwestern State players in double figures in a 73-64 win over Nicholls State on Wednesday night, ending a five-game losing streak.
The Demons (9-8, 1-1 Southland Conference) led 60-56 with 2:08 left to play, but a 3 from Dominic Knight followed by a layup and two free throws from Davis gave Northwestern State a 67-57 lead with 1 minute to go.
Louis Ellis added 11 points for the Demons. Will Pratt and Knight added 10 points apiece.
The Colonels (7-6, 1-1) were led by Anatoly Bose, who scored 27 points on 8-of-20 shooting from the field, including five 3-pointers. Fred Hunter added 11 points for the Colonels.
Both teams shot 10 of 18 from the floor (55.6 percent) in the opening half, but Northwestern State entered halftime with a 35-28 lead.
The Demons led by as many as 13, 56-43, after a 3-pointer from Ellis with 8:15 remaining.

Department of Ecology News Release - January 30, 2012
OLYMPIA – The Washington Department of Ecology (Ecology) has secured seven federal grants totaling $5.7 million to help protect or restore 960 acres of marine wetlands and connected freshwater and upland habitat areas in Puget Sound.
Details about the wetland restoration and preservation projects in Clallam, Island, Jefferson, Mason and Whatcom counties are available online.
To accomplish the acquisitions, Ecology is working in partnership with the Lummi Nation, Stillaguamish Tribe, Hood Canal Salmon Enhancement Group, North Olympic Salmon Coalition, Whidbey Camano Land Trust, Mason County, and U.S. Fish & Wildlife Service.
Ecology also coordinates its environmental efforts in Puget Sound with the Puget Sound Partnership – the state agency leading the coordinated effort to restore and protect the Sound by setting regional priorities, spurring action by organizations, and providing accountability for progress
During the past 125 years, Puget Sound has lost about 70 percent of its marine wetlands and connected habitat areas due to residential, commercial and industrial development.
Washington's marine estuaries and connected freshwater wetlands provide vital habitat for waterfowl, shorebirds and other wildlife species and are nurseries for salmon and other marine life.
Estuaries also are important to the economy because they help control floods, filter drinking water and keep erosion in check. They also help sustain Washington's clam, mussel and oyster beds which are worth more than $107 million annually.
Gerry O'Keefe, executive director of the Puget Sound Partnership, said: "These projects demonstrate if we work together, we can identify, invest in and make the most of these opportunities to benefit our economy and environment. Habitat enhancement projects represent a key part of our Action Agenda for a healthy Puget Sound."
The Partnership is the coordinating agency responsible for the science-based Action Agenda that guides the efforts of more than 600 organizations, state, county, city governments, tribes and other organizations.
Ecology Director Ted Sturdevant said that since 2006, Washington has received $31.3 million in federal coastal protection grants to acquire and permanently protect 5,300 acres of marine wetlands and related habitat.
Sturdevant said, "While our state has a large number of viable and worthy projects, we're also fortunate that Ecology has talented, skilled experts who have forged long-term partnerships for protecting our marine estuaries and wetlands for current and future generations."
Ecology is using $5.7 million in National Wetland Conservation Program Grants for these investments:
The U.S. Fish & Wildlife Service established the National Coastal Wetlands Conservation Grant Program in 1990. It is designed to help states acquire, restore and enhance coastal wetlands. Funding for the program comes from excise taxes on fishing equipment and motor boat and small engine fuels.

Dispersion polymerization accompanied by CO2 fixation: Synthesis of particles of polymers bearing cyclic carbonate and epoxide moieties
Radical dispersion polymerization of glycidyl methacrylate accompanied by CO2 fixation yielded particles of polymers bearing cyclic carbonate and epoxide moieties in the presence of polymeric dispersion stabilizers. Cellulose acetate successfully stabilized the dispersion, whereas poly(N-vinylpyrrolidone) did not. Spherical particles with diameters of 1–10 μm could be prepared under the optimized conditions. The epoxide moieties in the particle were hydrolyzed selectively keeping the shapes of the particles. © 2010 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J Polym Sci Part A: Polym Chem, 2010

A Fast Replica Placement Methodology for Large-Scale Distributed Computing Systems
Fine-grained data replication over the Internet allows duplication of frequently accessed data object, as opposed to entire sites, to certain locations so as to improve the performance of large-scale content distribution systems. In a distributed system, agents representing their sites try to maximize their own benefit since they are driven by different goals such as to minimize their communication costs, latency, etc. In this paper, the authors will use game theoretical techniques and in particular auctions to identify a bidding mechanism that encapsulates the selfishness of the agents, while having a controlling hand over them. In essence, the proposed game theory based mechanism is the study of what happens when independent agents act selfishly and how to control them to maximize the overall performance.

Hasbro has introduced a new line of Nerf blasters and gear designed just for girls. The Nerf Rebelle line has a sleek look with a pink, purple, and white color scheme. The Nerf Rebelle Dart Refill Pack includes 12 foam darts in six fun and stylish patterns. The darts are pink, purple, black, white, and green. They can be loaded into any of the Rebelle blasters, which are sold separately. Using the blasters, these darts can fly up to 75 feet.
Because most of the blasters don't come with that many darts, kids who engage in foam-blasting fun will definitely want this refill pack to keep their blaster battles going longer. And with female heroines such as The Hunger Games' Katniss Everdeen and Brave's Merida becoming so popular, we think the Nerf Rebelle line, with its blasters and bows, will really appeal to fans.
The Nerf Rebelle Dart Refill Pack is for ages 8 and up.
Do not aim the darts at people's eyes or faces.

I have a front SOAP web-server under Linux.
It will have to communicate with Windows Servers VM listening each on a HTTP port, for a HTTP POST request. The chosen VM should return a report of a task to the SOAP client.
In the SOAP requests, there's a special variable : the priority of the request (kind of SLA), and my question is coming right now :
I think of using a ha software (nginx, HAProxy, HeartBeat...) that can manage priority in this point of view. Is it relevant or do you think I need to implement a queue by myself with some specific developments?
- I have a SOAP requests with low priority in the pipe : the weight priority for these VM should be decreased if I have high priority SOAP requests at the same time.
Any clue will be really appreciated.

Nothing this former NFL player did on the gridiron is even close to as impressive as what he recently did off of it.
The next time you hit the beach this summer, don't be surprised if the water is looking more yellow than a school bus.
As a former swimmer, I can attest to this method.
These people see the diving board. They approach the diving board. They even successfully get onto the diving board. And then they do everything wrong after that.
Much of the nation is in the grips of a cold spell the likes of which make us long for summer.
For the first time in history, a swimmer has endured the 103-mile route from Havana, Cuba to Key West, Florida, without the assistance of a shark cage. That swimmer, 64-year-old Diana Nyad, began her quest on Saturday, August 31, and finished around 53 hours later on Labor Day.
Ahh, summer. 'Tis the season of watermelon art, diving fails and-- you guessed it-- belly flops. When we were kids, this pool move was awesome. But nowadays... who are we kidding? It's still (painfully) awesome!
Madelyn Sheaffer's bikini is the talk of the town.
Michael Phelps, eat your heart out.
Australian swimmer Chloe McCardel is planning to swim in June from Cuba to the U.S., but without the safety of a shark cage. She won't be able to touch a chase boat or another person, she won't use flippers or other swimming devices.
Did you hear that 3 men from Kentucky were arrested in the Falls for swimming in the Niagara River below the Horseshoe falls! Is that stupid or what? I understand Niagara Falls is one of the great wonders of the world and tourists like to remember the experience, but why not

I believe the issue is with settings at new host, but new host says their settings are not wrong and that it must be a plugin. But all plugins worked at old host.
Formidable plugin author suggested installing your plugin. I did, and when I sent a test message, I got this warning: "Warning: extract() expects parameter 1 to be array, null given in /hsphere/local/home/a123456/mydomain.com/wp-content/plugins/cimy-swift-smtp/swift_engine.php on line 9"

Help? Thank you!

I am 46 and although I don't have the problems some of you have mentioned, I have had issues from long backpacking hikes. I found on my last fully loaded hike into and out of the Grand Canyon a few years ago that my knees were not what they used to be. I tried the Glucosamine/Chondroitin products out there with no discernible difference.
What I have found, like others have stated is, regular exercise, stretching work wonders. I am also a firm believer that if you want to get better or stronger in a certain activity, the best way to do that, is to do that activity. I would also add that along with proper seat height, proper cleat position, if you are running clip less, will relieve stress on your knees as well.

I'm wondering how skype can send files directly to users that are usually behind a firewall? How does this work since I need to develop something similar where one local webserver (behind a firewall) needs to be able to send/stream files directly to another identical one?
I understand there needs to be some kind of publicly accessible central server through which both discover each other, and I plan to have that one, but how does the direct connection happen after that?

Spartanburg man accused of resisting arrest, disorderly conduct
Published: Tuesday, April 22, 2014 at 5:40 p.m.
Last Modified: Tuesday, April 22, 2014 at 5:40 p.m.
A Spartanburg man faces charges of resisting arrest and disorderly conduct after being accused of running from a police officer who told him to stop begging for money Monday afternoon.
Sammy Lee Hollis, 67, had been standing at the corner of John B. White Sr. Boulevard and West Main Street asking motorists for money at 1:25 p.m. Monday, according to a Spartanburg Police Department incident report.
A police officer had tried to get Hollis to stop approaching motorists, and Hollis ran away, the report states.
The officer took Hollis to the ground, but Hollis pinned the officer's head toward his chest while pulling at his duty belt, according to the report.
The officer was later able to handcuff Hollis and transport him to the Spartanburg County jail.
Online jail records show he was previously taken to the Spartanburg County jail Thursday on a charge of third-degree assault and battery.

Yemen Security Forces, Al-Ahmar Tribesmen Clash in Capital
Gunmen from Yemen's most influential tribe clashed with security forces loyal to Ali Abdullah Saleh in the capital, Sana'a, a day after the president refused to sign an accord requiring him to give up power.
Two tribesmen and one civilian were killed and 27 people injured, according to the opposition Suhail TV and the official media. Gun battles took place at an empty school and in the vicinity of the building that houses the official news agency Saba, state-run Yemen television said. Two journalists in the building were injured, the television reported.
"There are heavy clashes," Farouk al-Kamali, one of the injured journalists said in a telephone interview. "Close to 200 staffers are trapped in the building."
Fire broke out at the offices of Yemenia, the national airline, after gunmen clashed outside, the defense ministry said.
Tribal leader Sheikh Sadeq al-Ahmar had been an ally of Saleh. The two fell out after al-Ahmar joined nationwide anti-government protests that began in January. The opposition said in a statement that pro-Saleh forces tried to storm al-Ahmar's house in an attempt to ignite civil war.
The violence broke out a day after Saleh declined to sign an accord requiring him to give up power within 30 days. The six-member Arab Gulf bloc, which had brokered the deal, abandoned its efforts to bring about an end to the unrest.
Third Failure
It was the third time the GCC-led talks had failed, this time in dramatic fashion as helicopters were used to evacuate diplomats, including those from the U.S., E.U. and U.K., from the United Arab Emirates Embassy that had been surrounded by machine-gun wielding Saleh supporters.
The E.U. said in a statement after a meeting in Brussels today that it "condemns President Saleh's repeated failure to sign up to the GCC sponsored initiative." It called on him to follow through on his commitment to transfer power now.
It also said it "deplores" the failure by Saleh and Yemen's security forces to ensure safe passage of the diplomats at the UAE Embassy.
"We believe President Saleh still has the opportunity to sign this initiative and break the deadlock," U.S. State Department spokesman Mark Toner said in Washington.
"We've seen all sides agree" to the GCC accord, Toner noted. "President Saleh is the only party who refuses to match his actions to these words."
The U.S. embassy in Sana'a said in a travel warning that it will close the consular section to the public tomorrow and the next day and will provide emergency American citizen services only. The statement said the closure was necessary due to "the fluid security situation in the city."

DENVER (AP) -- Most of Colorado is in a moderate to extreme drought, and the outlook for June offers little hope for improvement.
The U.S. Drought Monitor says severe drought conditions covered about a quarter of Colorado at the end of May, encompassing nearly every place north and west of Salida. A pocket of that area is even worse, with severe drought conditions.
The rest of the state is either abnormally dry or in a moderate drought.
The Drought Monitor says a severe drought means crop or pasture losses are likely and water shortages are common. An extreme drought means major crop and pasture losses are possible and water shortages could become widespread.
The National Weather Service predicts June temperatures will be above normal and rainfall will be below normal statewide.

Classification of Music Using Neural Net
A neural network has been used to classify program material into groups according to the room acoustics that best suit the recording. The network uses Kohonens feature map followed by learning vector quantization and a real-time system for preprocessing and classification. Although an accuracy of better than 80% was achieved, classification can vary greatly from one case to another.

Diff'rent Strokes took place in New York City and centered around the happenings in the Drummond household. Philip Drummond was a widower and had a daughter, Kimberly. He was also quite wealthy and lived in the penthouse of a luxurious apartment building. His wealth was due to the fact that he was the president of Trans Allied, Inc.
However, the household was shaken up when Drummond's black housekeeper died and her deathbed wish was that he would take care of her two sons, Arnold and Willis Jackson. So, Drummond took both of them in and they became the sons Drummond never had.
Others in the cast included Mrs. Garrett the new housekeeper who later left for her own series, The Facts of Life. She was replaced by Adelaide, who was seen occasionally and she was later replaced by Pearl. In the seventh season, Drummond wed an aerobics instructor, Maggie McKinney and she moved in with her son, Sam, from a previous marriage.

Director: Twisted Tommy
Company: Twisted Tommy Productions
Distribution Companies: Legend
Cast: Lilit, Ricardo Bell, Elinor, Shake, Cony, Bob Terminator, Leslie (I), Trinity (I), Sabrina Rose (I), Gery Taylor, Others
Critical Rating: AAA
Genre: All-Sex
With an American at the helm and some barely understandable Eurosluts in front of the camera, we're not discounting the fact that a communications gap may have rendered some of these scenes less hot than they could've been.
Of course the bottom line is not what happened behind the scenes but what's being offered to the consumer - and Asses on Fire is a decidedly mixed bag. The butt sex is explicit and plentiful. The chemistry is tepid. The results are what you'd expect. So, despite the fact that some of these eye-pleasing gals have great stems, the video does not have long legs (i.e. shelf life).
Trinity receives a decent double-decker spa treatment. Elinor plies her trade on an antique chair. Double hummers, A2Ms and facials make the rounds.
Retailing: Cony's B&D wardrobe could attract specialty attention.

I finished my 2nd Half Marathon in 2:04:57! I really enjoyed the Surf City Half Marathon! The views on the course were breathtaking. I averaged about 9:30 miles. At the 5k point I was doing 9:01 and at the 8.2mile mark I was running 9:10. This is a significant improvement from my last Half Marathon which I finished in 2:15.
I was also pleasantly surprised at how good I felt after the half. I had some stiffness and soreness for 3 days but nothing major at all. I am actually feeling 100% today.
I did struggle more through this half than I did in Chicago. When I started the race I did not get the rush of adrenaline like I usually do. I had some mental struggles throughout the race but was able to get back in my head and press on. I don't know if it was the lack of crowds at certain sections of the course or the fact I was in a different time zone but something felt very different.
All in all it was a great race. I enjoyed the trip as well. My dad and I had a blast! Thanks Dad!
So, now I am trying to enjoy a week of rest. I plan on starting back on my routine on Monday. I will keep my long runs to around 6 miles for the duration of February and most of March and slowly start building up again.
Now I'm one step closer to Chicago 2010!
My blog will follow my running journey up to and through my 1st Marathon... Chicago 2010! You will read about my inspirations, PRs (hopefully!), and of course my struggles. So feel free to share your stories as well!

I am attempting to use a Ricoh Aficio MP 2000 printer on Kubuntu 13.04, to no avail. It sees the printer (and other printers) and can print successfully to other printers, including another Ricoh printer, but I get driver errors on the MP 2000 regardless of which one I use.
I have tried the Gutenprint one, the Openprinting.org one, and the other two default options, as well as downloading a straight PPD. They all result in a paper size/type mismatch error. I can then choose to form feed, and they give me one of the following errors:

The success of the food revolution started by Alice Waters can be measured in the fact that, more than three decades later, its tenets feel downright remedial. Eat locally and sustainably! Shop at farmer's markets! Plant a garden! Waters has become the Shakespeare of modern food writers, her truth so assimilated into gospel that it's easy to forget the voice others imitate. Here, she's brilliantly back to basics: discussing essential cooking supplies (buy a mortar and pestle), defining terms in a glossary , and distilling her principles into artful, often everyday recipes. Many of these are as simple as plunking down a plate of fresh veggies with some aioli or vinaigrette. Others, like a classic boiled dinner, would require days of uninterrupted devotion to prepare. None would do without access to the freshest and most pristine ingredients — still not a given for many. But Waters has done more than anyone else to ensure that access for the largest number of eaters, regardless of age, income, or geographic location; she's earned the right to proselytize and be heard. —

The Effects of Lossy Audio Encoding on Onset Detection Tasks
In large audio collections, it is common to store audio content with perceptual encoding. However, encoding parameters may vary from collection to collection or even within a collection - using different bit rates, sample rates, codecs, etc. We evaluate the effect of various audio encodings on the onset detection task. We show that audio-based onset detection methods are surprisingly robust in the presence of MP3 encoded audio. Statistically significant changes in onset detection accuracy only occur at bit-rates lower than 32kbps.

Patient Comments: Hip Bursitis - Treatment
What was your hip bursitis treatment?
Comment from: Biker 94, 55-64 Female (Patient) Published: September 12
I am a 64 year old female and fell two years ago on my right hip. I have doctored it for those two years with no relief. I just had surgery to remove the bursa sac on my right hip. I was told it will grow back, not sure about that though. I hope this does help, will find out soon I guess because this the 1st day after surgery. I could not lay down with out the pain, as long as I stood I had no pain.
Comment from: mypain, 45-54 Female (Patient) Published: September 12
I have been suffering from bursitis for about two years. I finally went to a bone specialist who diagnosed me with bursitis. I tried the shots to no avail. It only lasted about three days. I then had the bursa sac removed and boy or boy it is worse now then ever. Just having my pants touch that area sends me into shock. Walking, sitting, resting, nothing gives me any relief. I asked my doctor for muscle relaxers and that seems to help take the edge off. Is there any other treatments out there? I feel like my muscles are tearing every time I walk.
Comment from: Lewis, 13-18 Male (Patient) Published: September 12
I am only 18 years old and this happened to me nine months ago and it's still going. I've been to the doctor at least four times and all I got was a prescription for Difene pills. I had the whole box-50 pills. My leg is killing me. I can't walk or move because it hurts so bad. I just wish I could get a bursectomy to get this over with because I'm sick and tired of it.
Comment from: mt cooky, 65-74 Female (Patient) Published: September 12
I was 66 years old when I was diagnosed with bursitis. Mobic did absolutely no good, so I had a shot of prednisone. It helped for some time, and then I started taking the 800 mg ibuprofen tablets until I was taking three a day. I thought it was too many and I had another shot seven months later, with Naprosyn for inflammation and Lori tabs for pain. The doctor told me to exercise, swim, or walk. I don't take the Lori tabs very often, I'm trying to do enough exercise. I'm not near as bad as many others, but have trouble sleeping.
Comment from: atrebor, 55-64 Female (Patient) Published: September 12
I had right hip pain on the outside of my right hip for months. I tried Aleve and extra strength Tylenol with little relief. I just had a cortisone injection about 36 hours ago and the pain in gone.
Comment from: scout, 65-74 Female (Patient) Published: August 24
I fell at home a week ago and hyperextended my right knee which really hurt, but two days later my left hip began hurting. It got so bad that I was limping and it was hard to sleep. I saw my orthopedist who took x-rays and said my knee had osteoarthritis and hip bursitis. I begin water therapy this week. Cannot take cortisone and take anti-inflammatory for arthritis, so no more of that. Two years ago I turned my back problem around with water therapy so I am going to try it again. The doctor also told me to begin exercising with leg lifts, front, back and side. I will start that after the pain subsides some. I am 69, a female and walk four days a week, garden, and stay active.
Comment from: cheribeau, 55-64 Female (Patient) Published: August 13
I am very upset. I had a facet injection about a week ago. For the first time, I got no relief and my pain got worse! It got so bad within the last couple of days that I have to lift my leg to get in the car! Way beyond my normal pain. I just got back from the doctor again, and she told me I had bursitis of the hip. She gave me another steroid injection that did not give me much relief.
Comment from: Nscrgrl20, 45-54 Female (Patient) Published: August 13
I was treated with bursa in both my hips with detho shots on 10 different occasions, finally my pain manager said I would need surgery. He sent me to an orthopedic surgeon, who poked a few times on my hip, confirmed is was bursa of the hips and scheduled surgery that week. I went in a week ago on Thursday and while I'm still in pain, I think it's just because of surgery, they said the bursa was the size of a tennis ball on each side. It was done as out-patient. I was in at 10 and out by 2. My hips are sore but the intense pain has went away! Don't let any doctor keep trying injections, demand surgery and eventually you will be pain free

What causes iliotibial band (IT band) syndrome?
Iliotibial band inflammation is an overuse syndrome that occurs most often in long-distance runners, bicyclists, and other athletes who repeatedly squat. The iliotibial band syndrome may be the result of a combination of issues, including poor training habits, poor flexibility of muscle, and other mechanical imbalances in the body, especially involving the low back, pelvis, hips, and knees.
There can be a predisposition to develop IT band syndrome. Anatomy issues may include differences in the lengths of the legs (a leg-length discrepancy), an abnormal tilt to the pelvis, or bowed legs (genu varum). These situations can cause the iliotibial band to become excessively tight, leading to increased friction when the band crosses back and forth across the femoral epicondyle during activity.
Training errors may cause runners to develop iliotibial band syndrome symptoms. Roads are canted or banked with the center of the road higher than the outside edge to allow for water runoff. If a runner always runs on the same side of the road, it produces the same effect on the body as having a leg-length discrepancy. One leg is always downhill compared to the other, and the pelvis has to tilt to accommodate the activity. Running too many hills can also cause inflammation of the IT band. Running downhill is especially stressful on the IT band as it works to stabilize the knee.
Bicyclists may develop IT band inflammation should they have improper posture on their bike and "toe in" when they pedal. The issue may be how the toe clips are aligned, forcing the foot to be internally rotated, toed in. This can cause the same effect as bowed legs, increasing the angle of the IT band as it crosses the knee and increasing the risk of inflammation.
Other activities with increased knee flexion can cause symptoms and include rowing and weight lifting, especially with excessive squatting.
What are iliotibial band (IT band) syndrome symptoms and signs?
Pain on the lateral side of the knee is the most common symptom of iliotibial band syndrome and is due to inflammation of the area where the band crosses back and forth at the femoral epicondyle. Initially, there may be a sensation of stinging or needle-like pricks that are often ignored. This can gradually progress to pain every time the heel strikes the ground and finally can become disabling with pain when walking or when climbing up or down steps.
Some patients may feel a snapping or popping sound at the knee, and there may be some swelling either where the band crosses the femoral epicondyle or below the knee where it attaches to the tibia. Occasionally, the pain may radiate along the course of the IT band all the way up to the outer side of the thigh to the hip.

Are you worried about crime in your neighborhood? You're not alone. Most likely, your neighbors are concerned, too. How does a Neighborhood Watch work? It works by showing residents they are not powerless against crime. SafetyWatch is a series of programs designed to promote neighborhood safety in response to the growth of residential areas and the crime rate increase that results from such growth. The main focus of SafetyWatch is crime prevention at the neighborhood level. However, traffic problems, street/yard cleanup, noise control and unwanted solicitation, are other issues dealt with through SafetyWatch. In conjunction with these programs, the police are relying on you to do your part in the protection of yourself, your family, and your property. Ultimately, it is your responsibility to establish adequate home security in addition to practicing good safety habits. A Neighborhood Watch Program can provide:

Acoustical Impulse Response of Interior Spaces
Instrumentation has been developed that measures the impulse response of interior spaces. Lack of reverberance in certain frequency bands, highly structured echo patterns indicative of flutter or other undesirable characteristics may be revealed. The same equipment can be used to study scale models of the space and the effects of changes in geometries of the materials within the space.

Public Workers' Compensation and Fair Labor Practices
Once again Andrew Biggs and Jason Richwine claim that public workers are overpaid ("Overpaid Public Workers: The Evidence Mounts," op-ed, April 11). The members of my union, the American Federation of State, County & Municipal Employees, would be surprised to hear that. In the two states highlighted by the authors, Wisconsin and Ohio, our members working for state and local governments average about $40,000 in pay, and retire with pensions, after a full career of service, that are about $19,000 per year. Just how much less do the authors think our members should earn? If Messrs. Biggs and Richwine can guarantee our good health, and promise that we'll never grow old, we'll gladly surrender our health-care and pension benefits.
Most disturbingly, the authors seek to cast the recall of Gov. Scott Walker and the overwhelming defeat of Gov. John Kasich's union-busting bill as backlash to efforts to address overly generous compensation. Nothing could be further than the truth.
In Wisconsin, our members agreed to health-care and pension cuts to help the state address its fiscal challenges. But Gov. Walker was so determined to break the union that he never even talked to our members about the issue. Now, he'll face the voters. In Ohio, the voters rejected Gov. Kasich's union busting by a huge margin. Yet within two weeks of that historic vote, the governor and our union achieved a collective bargaining agreement that both sides consider fair and sensitive to the fiscal condition of the state.
Public workers are not overpaid and countless studies corroborate this fact, some even cited by the authors. Despite the authors' repeated efforts to confuse the issue, facts can be very stubborn things.
Gerald W. McEntee
I think Andrew Biggs and Jason Richwine are kidding themselves if they believe that reform is on the way. Maybe a few states are making efforts, but the outcry from the unions has caused hesitation among any followers. As long as taxpayers have pockets, governments will pick them to mollify employees and their agencies and unions, and the federal government is the worst offender.
For years, while the economy has been in decline and taxpayers are out of work, underpaid and steadily losing medical and retirement benefits, government employees have continued to enjoy nonmerit and cost-of-living pay increases, as well as the security of excellent benefits and retirement packages. Since the out-of-touch Congress that regulates them lives in the same fiscal fairyland, and the state governments are too cowardly, there is not much hope in sight that public-sector employees will get in the same boat as their beleaguered taxpaying employers.

Corrections & Amplifications
Due to an editing error, an earlier version of the letter from Gerald McEntee read "the recall of Gov. Scott." It should have read "the recall of Gov. Scott Walker."

This article concerns the prescriptive function of decision analysis. Consider an agent who must choose an action yielding welfare that varies with an unknown state of nature. It is often asserted that such an agent should adhere to consistency axioms which imply that behavior can be represented as maximization of expected utility. However, our agent is not concerned the consistency of his behavior across hypothetical choice sets. He only wants to make a reasonable choice from the choice set that he actually faces. Hence, I reason that prescriptions for decision making should respect actuality. That is, they should promote welfare maximization in the choice problem the agent actually faces. Any choice respecting weak and stochastic dominance is rational from the actualist perspective.

IN THE NEWS: Did you catch Ozarks Live on December 7th? We were featured as one of the twelve days of Christmas. Here is the link if you'd like to watch it.
It all began when we met our first alpacas in late 1993, and bought our first ones in 1994. Then, searching for almost two years for a ranch where we could raise them, we found what is now Whirlwind Ranch in Lebanon, Missouri. We have had as many as 142 Alpacas here at one time, but now we average around 30 and several Great Pyrenees livestock guardian dogs to keep potential predators away. We raise Huacaya Alpacas at Whirlwind Ranch and have been blessed with over 300 births here. We are expecting 6 crias (baby alpacas) in the Spring of 2015.
We are very proud of the diverse Peruvian, Bolivian and Chilean bloodlines that have been incorporated in our foundation stock. We continue to strive for consistent quality - -- Our commitment to future generations of the North American Alpaca.
We gladly encourage prospective purchasers to spend time with us, both enjoying our crias' antics and learning about basic Alpaca care and management. We aim to support our customers in all phases of Alpaca ownership. We hope you will make an appointment to visit and share our excitement in these colorful fiber animals.

West Texas A&M University's Olympic-size swimming pool is dirty - very dirty.
Workers are filling the pool with dirt as part of the first phase of a four-year, $6 million renovation of the Virgil Henson Activities Center.
The pool's maximum depth will be reduced from 13 feet to 4 feet 6 inches, said Tadhi Hayes, WT's director of engineering and architectural service.
Hayes said the dirt will be compacted and the new pool will be built on top of the old one, saving money on demolition costs.
Crews are in the process of removing the pool's old plumbing and infrastructure and have taken out a wall panel on the side of the building.
"Right now, that's all the work that's being done," Hayes said. "The rest of the building is still active."
The project's first phase, which started when the pool was drained in November, is scheduled to be finished in August.
Additions to the pool area will include a water slide, lazy river and water volleyball.
An enclosed patio on the south side of the building also is planned.
WT students have varied opinions about the changes being made to the pool area.
"I think it's nice they are taking the money to improve it," sophomore Chris Williamson said. "Maybe with them renovating it, it will be used more."
Williamson said he likes the plans to make the pool more geared toward recreational use, which he thinks will attract more use from the community.
Sophomore Wil Manhkong has mixed feelings about what's being done with the renovations.
Manhkong said he swam laps in the pool about once a week before it was closed.
"I'm disappointed that the pool will be smaller," Manhkong said. "You can't really swim laps in a lazy river."
He said he thinks the new pool will be fun, but doubts it will be used more.
"I can't see college students using that for recreational sports - maybe just for kicks, but not really for a workout," he said.
Hayes said the men's and women's locker rooms probably will be closed in the next month and might be temporarily relocated to another building.
Hayes said plans are to have the locker rooms closed only until the pool reopens.
