In this encyclopedia entry, I set forth all of the factors that a complete theory of self-defense must consider. On some of those factors, I have and express an opinion. On others, I leave matters unresolved. What is most significant, however, is that self-defense is preemptive: it occurs before the anticipated act to which it is a response. Yet, almost none of the extant voluminous literature on self-defense addresses the epistemological standards that should govern preemptive responses, standards regarding the probability of the anticipated act and its consequences and whether the actor is culpable or nonculpable.

A man was stabbed after a fight over his driving in Apopka on Tuesday afternoon, police said.
Witnesses called police after seeing the man driving erratically on Timberlane Road, and as officers arrived, they got another call about a person with a traumatic injury in the same location.
Witnesses said Armando Angel Cantero-Chavez, 28, was the one driving erratically, and Lorenzo Sanchez-Bellot, 58, confronted Cantero-Chavez about his driving when he got out of his car.
Cantero-Chavez punched Sanchez-Bellot, and Sanchez-Bellot stabbed Cantero-Chavez, police said.
Sanchez-Bellot was charged with aggravated battery.
Cantero-Chavez is in stable but guarded condition.

Before leaving his post as director of the Albright-Knox Art Gallery at the end of the year, Louis Grachos took what will strike many as a surprising parting shot at one of the region's best-known figures.
The object of his ire was Ralph Wilson, the longtime owner of the Buffalo Bills. As we mulled over the ongoing debate about cultural funding in Erie County in his Albright-Knox office in November, he let out a sigh.
"After all is said and done, we're back to square one fighting for culture in a political landscape that is completely willing to give Mr. Wilson, Ralph Wilson, $200 million to supposedly secure our future in football in Buffalo. Well, it's a bunch of crap," said Grachos. "Mark [Poloncarz,] who is totally supportive of cultural institutions, is now faced with having to deal with that battle all over again year after year."
It's about time someone of Grachos' stature made this argument.
The Bills subsidy issue, as Poloncarz's communications director Mark Cornell recently explained, is complex. According to The News' Denise Jewell Gee, the Bills currently receive about $7 million a year in county-funded subsidies and this number is expected to increase in future years after the current lease negotiations are complete. In comparison, Poloncarz's budget proposal included about $5 million to be distributed among more than 50 cultural groups. (This is to say nothing of the Bills' request for more than $200 million for major stadium improvements, the bulk of which may have to come from New York State.)
Arguments about the value and effectiveness of subsidies for cultural groups versus sports teams have tended to be inflammatory on both ends of the spectrum. To the dimmest arts advocates, the sports world seems like the realm of ignorant meatheads. To the dimmest sports fans, the cultural world is at best cute and ineffectual. Neither is remotely true, but these people tend to drown out reasonable debate.
Arts advocates, of late, have been honing their arguments to a razor-sharp point. Their greatest weapon remains a 2006 UB Regional Institute study of 22 arts organizations that showed a return of nearly $10 for every dollar invested in addition to substantial sales tax generation and a (somewhat more dubious) secondary annual economic impact of $264 million. But a growing chorus of economists, led by the University of Chicago's Allen Sanderson, suggest that stadium subsidies do far less than promised to stimulate local economies and provide tax revenue. An article by my colleague Tim Graham in February suggested that a Bills departure would have almost no effect on the local economy.
At the very least, politicians need to look much more seriously at exaggerated claims of economic impact, wherever they come from. We need a more honest discussion of what taxpayers actually receive in return for their investment in the Bills – and in the arts – beyond psychological reassurance.
From my perspective, the Bills are so deeply ingrained in the DNA of Western New York, their triumphs and failures so inextricably bound up with those of the region, that they deserve some amount of public backing.
But there is little doubt that the amount Wilson and his team have managed to draw from local and state taxpayers is excessive when compared with the largely intangible (that is to say, emotional) return on investment the Bills offer. The data, though it needs fleshing out, suggests that widely distributed, small-scale cultural investments provide more significant returns.
At the very least, Grachos' comments should give us pause. It's long past time to begin an honest debate.

A Prognosticursion into 2013
With Spring Training starting this week, here is a look ahead at what could be the Cubs 2013 Opening Day roster & lineup.
* bats or throws left
# bats both
Michael Bowden
Shawn Camp
Scott Feldman
Kyuji Fujikawa
Matt Garza
Edwin Jackson
Carlos Marmol
Hector Rondon
* James Russell
Jeff Samardzija
Carlos Villanueva
* Travis Wood
Welington Castillo
# Dioner Navarro
Darwin Barney
Starlin Castro
Brent Lillibridge
* Anthony Rizzo
* Ian Stewart
* Luis Valbuena
* David DeJesus
Scott Hairston
Dave Sappelt
* Nate Schierholtz
Alfonso Soriano
Scott Baker, P
Arodys Vizcaino, P
A further breakdown:
1. DeJesus/Sappelt, CF
2. Castro, SS
3. Rizzo, 1B
4. Soriano, LF
5. Hairston/Schierholtz, RF
6. Stewart, 3B
7. Castillo/Navarro
8. Barney, 2B
Castillo/Navarro, C
DeJesus/Sappelt, OF
Hairston,/Schierholtz, OF
Lillibridge, 3B-2B-SS-1B-LF-CF-RF
Valbuena, 2B-3B-SS
Matt Garza
Edwin Jackson
Jeff Samardzija
* Travis Wood
Scott Feldman
Carlos Marmol
Kyuji Fujikawa
Carlos Villanueva
* James Russell
Shawn Camp
Michael Bowden
Hector Rondon
Castro is not an ideal #2 hitter, but he will probably hit there unless and until Barney can improve his OBP to what is required at the top of the order.
It will have to be determined during the course of Spring Training who can better handle CF when DeJesus is not in the lineup… Hairston or Sappelt. (The other will play RF). But there will be two platoons in the outfield (CF & RF), which is why there was no room for Tony Campana, And the Cubs will probably be keeping their eyes open during Spring Training for a true CF (at least a RH hitting one). They supposedly asked the Angels for Peter Bourjos when the Marmol-for-Haren deal fell through, but were rebuffed.
Otherwise, there aren't a whole lot of issues that need to be determined, as far as position players are concerned.
Welington Castillo is out of minor league options and so he will certainly be given every chance to be the primary catcher, and will (at worst) platoon with Dioner Navarro.
Luis Valbuena should be more valuable as an infield utility guy and LH PH than he was as an everyday 3B (Valbuena is also out of minor league options), and I believe Brent Lillibridge is the obvious candidate to take the Joe Mather Slot on the 25-man roster.
Why Lillibridge?
He had a terrible 2012 season at three stops (CHW, BOS, and CLE), but he would be the one guy (besides Rizzo) on the 25-man roster who has actually played 1B at the big league level (45 games). He also hit 321/367/786 as a PH 2010-2012, and he crushed LHP in both 2010 (303/343/606) and 2011 (287/346/685), making him the New Jeff Baker, capable of replacing Ian Stewart at 3B, Anthony Rizzo at 1B, any of the three RH hitting outfielders, and even Barney or Castro, as needed.
Lillibridge is certainly not Tony Campana, but he does have above-average speed (36 SB in 338 MLB games), making him a reasonable choice to be used as a pinch-runner late in a game when the Cubs are playing for one run. And he has the versatility & athleticism to play anywhere on the field except pitcher and catcher (although he will probably be the "emergency catcher" and the "garbage pitcher," too).
If he makes all of his Cactus League starts and has no medical setbacks, Matt Garza will be a prime trade candidate the last week of Spring Training. Any club acquiring Garza prior to MLB Opening Day would be able to extend a Qualifying Offer (a one-year guaranteed contract with a salary equal to the average salaries of the 125 highest-paid players in 2013) to Garza post-2013 if the club is unable to sign him to a contract extension, and the club would receive a 2014 compensation draft pick if Garza signs elsewhere. (A club cannot extend a Qualifying Offer and receive a compensatory draft pick if the player is acquired during the MLB regular season). For that same reason, the Cubs would be expected to get more in return for Garza if he is traded prior to Opening Day than if he is traded during the season.
Something that would be a factor if Garza is traded after Opening Day is that the Cubs could receive a draft pick as part of a trade package. Competitive Balance draft picks awarded to 12 MLB clubs last July can be traded, but only once (the pick can't be flipped to a third team), and the pick can only be traded during the MLB regular season. So if a team like the Baltimore Orioles is interested in acquiring Garza but can't put together a package of players sufficient to make the Cubs bite, they could sweeten the deal by including their 2013 Competitive Balance draft pick (#37 overall). But again, if the Orioles (let's say) were to acquire Garza during the MLB regular season, they would be precluded from extending a Qualifying Offer to Garza post-2013 (and therefore not receive a 2014 draft pick as compensation if Garza were to sign elsewhere), thereby reducing Garza's value to the Orioles in a trade.
If there are no setbacks during Spring Training, Scott Baker is projected to be up to about 75 pitches (and five innings) by Opening Day, so he will probably start the 2013 season on the 15-day DL and remain at Extended Spring Training for a couple of weeks while he increases his pitch count, arm strength, and stamina. He then could be reactivated and rejoin the Cubs starting rotation directly, or he could spend as much as an additional 30 days on a minor league rehab assignment while he attempts to get closer to where he needs to be.
If and when Baker returns to the starting rotation, either Scott Feldman or Travis Wood will likely be moved to the bullpen. (That's presuming Garza has not been traded in the meantime and/or no starting pitchers go down with injuries during Spring Training). Feldman has a lot of experience as an MLB reliever and should be able to make the transition without difficulty. Wood is out of minor league options, so the Cubs would have to try and get him through waivers if they want to send him to Iowa, and there is no way Wood is not claimed if he's put on waivers. So Wood either is a Cubs starting pitcher (and he would be the Cubs only lefty starter), or he works out of the Cubs bullpen. And unlike Feldman, Wood does not have considerable experience as a reliever, either in the minor leagues or at the big league level.
Carlos Villanueva would be an additional starting pitcher option, but he has done his best work as a reliever, and the Cubs do need to upgrade their bullpen. So while I would not be surprised to see Villanueva get stretched-out as a starter during Spring Training and be given a shot at the starting rotation, he will almost certainly start the season in the bullpen (unless Garza is traded prior to Opening Day and Baker is left behind at Extended Spring Training).
Carlos Marmol will probably be given every opportunity to retain the closer's job, but if he falters expect Kyuji Fujikawa to take his place. Fujikawa has extensive experience as a closer in Japan (NPB), and would probably provide a more consistent and stable (if not occasional "lights out") performance in that role. The Cubs came close to trading Marmol during the off season, and if his legal issues are clearly a non-factor, he could get traded during Spring Training.
James Russell will be the Cubs #1 bullpen lefty, and in fact he might be the Cubs only bullpen lefty to start the season. Veteran Japanese LHRP Hisanori Takahashi is in camp as a Non-Roster Invitee (NRI), and if Manager Dale Sveum absolutely must have a second lefty (and if it's not Travis Wood), the most-likely candidate is Takahashi. It's also very possible that a veteran like Takahashi has an "opt out" clause in his contract, where he can request his release if he is not on the Cubs Opening Day MLB 25-man roster, and if so, that could help influence the Cubs to add Takahashi to the 25-man roster.
Shawn Camp had a fine year working out of the bullpen for the Cubs in 2012 and he will be back again in 2013. However, he was used a LOT in 2012, and MLB relievers are notorious for having a good year followed by a bad year (especially if the pitcher was overworked the previous season), so we'll have to wait to see how Camp responds in 2013.
With Marmol, Fujikawa, Russell, Camp, and Villanueva virtual locks to begin the season in the Cubs bullpen, two slots should be open (at least until Baker is added to the rotation and either Feldman or T. Wood are moved to the pen). It could only be one open slot if Takahashi is kept as the second lefty, but if two slots are available, Michael Bowden and Hector Rondon have the early advantage.
Unlike most of the other bullpen candidates who either have minor league options left or who are in camp as NRI guys signed to minor league contracts (where they do not have to pass through waivers in order to be assigned to Iowa), Bowden is out of minor league options, and so waivers would have to be secured if the Cubs want to send him to the minors. And even if waivers are secured, Bowden has been outrighted previously in his career, so he has the right to elect to be a free-agent if outrighted.
Hector Rondon was selected by the Cubs in the Major League Phase of the December 2012 Rule 5 Draft, and so he will have to spend the entire 2013 season on the Cubs 25-man Active List and/or 15-day or 60-day DL (with at least 90 days spent on the Active List) before Rule 5 restrictions are removed.
So what are the "Rule 5 restrictions" that affect Rondon?
He cannot be placed on waivers until 25 days prior to MLB Opening Day and cannot be sent to the minors or released until 20 days prior to Opening Day. And even if waivers are secured, he would have to be offered back to the Cleveland Indians AAA Columbus affiliate (the club from which he was drafted), and the Indians (acting for Columbus) can reclaim Rondon for half the Rule 5 draft price. Only if waivers are secured and the Indians decline to reclaim him, can the Cubs release Rondon or send him to the minors.
However, Rondon is out of minor league options, and (like Michael Bowden) he has been outrighted previously in his career, so even if waivers are secured and the Indians decline to reclaim him, the Cubs cannot option Rondon to the minors, and if they outright him, he can elect free-agency. So it's probably pretty much "Wrigley Field or Bust" for Rondon.
Like Scott Baker, Arodys Vizcaino had Tommy John Surgery (TJS) last April and should be able to fully-participate in Spring Training drills. Where he will be by the end of March is not known yet, but the Cubs have talked about bringing Vizcaino along slowly and limiting his innings in 2013. So if I had to guess I would say he will be placed on the 60-day DL sometime during Spring Training (opening up a 40-man roster slot for Brent Lillibridge) and will be left behind at Extended Spring Training in Mesa. But unlike Baker, I would not be surprised to see Viczaino remain at Extended Spring Training for two full months, gradually easing his way back into action, then go on a 30-day rehab assignment (probably at Daytona), before being reactivated from the DL and getting optioned to AAA Iowa or AA Tennessee on about July 1st, and then get recalled after the conclusion of the minor league regular season on Labor Day. It is somewhat important for the Cubs to try and keep Vizcaino on Optional Assignment for at least 62 days (July and August, let's say) in 2013, because by doing so they can keep his MLB Service Time under two seasons by the end of the season, thus insuring that he will remain under club control through the 2018 season.
Meanwhile, a number of other pitchers will compete for jobs at AAA Iowa. Some of these pitchers are on the 40-man roster, others are in "big league camp" as NRI, and still others will report directly to the Iowa squad at Minor League Camp next month.
As things stand right now, this is what the I-Cubs pitching staff should look like the last week of Minor League Camp:
* Brooks Raley
* Chris Rusin
Nick Struck
Barret Loux
Dae-Eun Rhee
* Eric Jokisch
Jason Berken
Casey Coleman
Jay Jackson
Yoannis Negrin
Alberto Cabrera
Rafael Dolis
Trey McNutt
Frank Batista
Ty'Relle Harris
Marcus Hatley
Kevin Rhoderick
Esmailin Caridad
Drew Carpenter
Jaye Chapman
Jensen Lewis
Blake Parker
Zach Putnam
Brian Schlitter
* Hisanori Takahashi
Cory Wade
Casey Weathers
* Dontrelle Willis
Carlos Gutierrez
Marcos Mateo
That's the definition of a log-jam: 30 pitchers competing for 13 AAA jobs.
A few could start the season on the DL, while others will get demoted to AA Tennessee. Probably at least eight or ten will get released. Some of the AAA starting rotation candidates will end up in the I-Cubs bullpen.
And the probable position players at Iowa in 2013:
J. C. Boscan
* Steve Clevenger
* Justin Bour
Alberto Gonzalez
Junior Lake
Edwin Maysonet
Jonathon Mota (player-coach)
Greg Rohan
Josh Vitters
* Logan Watkins
* Brian Bogusevic
* Tony Campana (unless he is traded or claimed off waivers)
Johermyn Chavez
* Brett Jackson
Watkins (2B) and B. Jackson (CF) will likely play most every day and hit 1-2 in the I-Cubs lineup. Both Lake and Vitters will likely get playing time in the outfield (Vitters in LF and Lake in LF-CF-RF), and Vitters should also see some action at 1B. Rohan can play the "four corners" (1B-3B-LF-RF), and Gonzalez would probably be the primary utility infielder (2B-3B-SS), with Maysonet the #1 shortstop.
Because minor league teams employ 13-man pitching staffs, there will be only four slots available on the Iowa bench, so 1B Brad Nelson, OF Darnell McDonald, and OF Ty Wright are definitely and squarely "on the bubble."

Hi Phil, thanks for the great report. What's the option count for Dave Sappelt? Frankly, I'm not impressed with what I've seen from the man, and I wonder if the Cubs could retain Darnell McDonald out of spring training for the role you described for Sappelt, and send Sappelt to Iowa, to have an extra RH OF in-house going into the season?

Soler likely to return Sunday, Maddon says
Right now, I'd like to see the Mets first, Giants 2nd.
I believe that since most of the team from last years' NLCS is on the squad this year, they will really amp their game up even more to kick their ass in payback for 2015.
The Giants just do not have the depth in years past, and I think all things equal - and at Wrigley - they could handle them.
I do not want to see the Cards, period. Or their fans, media, or Joe Buck.
I don't want to play Braves in the first round. Any friggin team in the league can win 3 of 5..I hate the first round. Furthermore, I wanted to play the Marlins in 2003 and the Mets over Dodgers last year.
With that said in reverse order:
3. Cardinals: It will be devastating to lose in the first round, but even worse to their main rival. It is increased incentive for the Cardinals, especially after last year. Cards would have nothing to lose, Cubs have everything to lose.
2. Giants: Rotation in the playoffs scare me a bit, but what a lousy team.
1. Mets--because of the losses in the rotation
2. Giants--because they're not the team they were BUT they maybe have bullshit even-year magic?
3. Cardinals--because rivalry and not making the playoffs hurts them more than losing in the NLDS plus getting eliminated by them in the playoffs would make for horrible sports commentary next throughout next season.
Who's asking?
CLE/DET rained out last night already, possible rain-outs in New York (vs. Baltimore), Boston(vs. Toronto) and Philly(vs. Mets) this weekend too.
Not only games involving playoff spots that would need to be played, but any that involve home field advantage.
I got the first one! Second one I'm not even sure what even/odd betting is.
any opponent preference for NLDS?
Mets are down to 1 great pitcher instead of 4. Syndegaard may pitch Sunday which means if Mets win the WC game, he'd be set up for Game 1. There's a chance they clinch a spot by Sunday so he'd pitch the WC and then we'd probably get Colon for Game 1. They've certainly had the hottest bats over the last week and month out of the WC options.

EAST LIVERPOOL - Despite a slow start to the season, the East Liverpool football team found a way to go out on top.
The Potters capped a remarkable second half with their third straight victory on Friday, 41-12, against Weir High at Patterson Field.
The win finishes East Liverpool's season at 4-6 with the Potters taking claim to a 4-1 mark at home.

"The commitment we saw from our senior leaders was amazing," East Liverpool coach Rick Prescott said. "They have no idea what kind of impact they've made on me, the coaching staff and the entire team. We're moving in the right direction and it's because of them. They've sacrificed so much. Every single thing that we've asked of them, they've done. I couldn't be any prouder of them."
For the Red Riders, their season comes to an end without a win.
"Our guys could've packed it in any night," Weir coach Tony Filberto said. "I'm proud of them because they stayed in there and battled. It didn't convert into wins, but in the future they'll be able to look back and know they gave it their all."
The Potters controlled the game from the opening possession.
East Liverpool's Jimmy Beaver recovered a fumble on Weir's first drive of the game.
On the very next play - the Potters' first offensive snap of the night - senior quarterback Payton Newlun launched a 34-yard scoring strike to D.J. Austin to give his team a 6-0 lead in the game's first minute.
After a three-and-out for the Red Riders, the Potters would strike again.
This time it was senior tailback Stefan Yoho finding the end zone from three yards out to give East Liverpool a 13-0 advantage with four minutes left in the opening frame.
Yoho led all rushers with 128 yards and two touchdowns. He finishes the season with 918 yards rushing with 14 touchdowns.
"We've turned into a family this season," Prescott said. "They play so hard and they do it for each other. It speaks volumes to their character. It's made our jobs as coaches so much easier and more enjoyable. Attitude is everything and this group of guys, through thick and thin, good and bad, shows up to work every day."
The game stayed 13-0 in favor of the Potters until halftime neared.
That's when Yoho grabbed a punt at midfield and took it to the house to give his team a 20-0 lead with just under two minutes left.
Weir was not going to go quietly,however.
The Red Riders turned to Cameron Davis who found a seam and broke free for a 72-yard run down to the Potters' 4-yard line. It took three tries, but eventually Eric Piatt found paydirt for Weir to put the score at 20-6 at the break.
"I feel bad for our seniors for their career that they never got to experience winning on a regular basis," Filberto said. "But, I think they'll be able to look back in a few years and realized that they set a good foundation here to build upon."
The first score of the second half came near the end of the third quarter when East Liverpool's John Miscuk pounded his way into the end zone from three yards out to give his squad a comfortable 27-6 lead with one minute left in the frame.
It wouldn't take long for the Potters to celebrate in the end zone again.
Kade Reynolds intercepted a Jake Wypsek pass and ran it to the Red Riders' 3-yard line. Newlun would cash in from a yard out and the Potters led 34-6 with 11 minutes left in the game.
Yoho would score East Liverpool's final points of the season on a 15-yard run.
On the ensuing kickoff, Weir's Jo Jo Rice found the sideline and was gone. A return of 95 yards for a touchdown put the game to its final score, 41-12.
The Red Riders had more than half of the 22 starting positions filled by freshmen and sophomores. Filberto, in his first year back with Weir, said the future is bright for his young team.
"I don't know what all of this playing time for them will equate to," Filberto said. "I don't know because (Oak Glen's) Preston Murray was the only freshman I've ever started before this year in my 35 years of coaching. We hope this experience for these young guys will convert into something positive."
Prescott said he also believes that good things are on the horizon in East Liverpool.
"It was nice to stand back and see these younger guys watch the leadership that our seniors brought," Prescott said. "They became teachers. They let the freshmen and sophomores know how to act on and off the field.
"There's lots of hope for the future. The goal of this staff coming in was to build a program. It's a long process, and we're not there yet, but we started with 60 kids and we finished with 60 kids. There was no drop off and that's saying something."
NOTES: There were plenty of penalty flags thrown on the night. East Liverpool was whistled for 11 penalties totaling 66 yards, while Weir was penalized 10 times for 71 yards. ... Weir's Cameron Davis was taken off the field on a stretcher with 10 minutes left to play.

In this deeply personal and controversial memoir, Father Albert Cutié, once the poster boy of the Roman Catholic Church, tells of his devastating struggle between upholding his sacred promises as a priest and falling in love. Already conflicted with growing ideological differences with the Church, Cutié was forced to abruptly change his life the day that he was photographed on the beach, embracing the woman he would later make his wife.
The love that he deemed a blessing was bringing him closer to God, but further from the Church. In Dilemma, Cutié tells about breaking his vows, beginning a new way of life for oneself, and discovering a new way of serving God.

Those of us involved with handing on the Faith in parishes or in the Catholic schools have many opportunities for the spiritual renewal that is so important to the success of our ministry.
However, there are other Catholic educators, teachers and administrators in public schools, who are equally deserving of a day to recharge their spiritual batteries and be recognized for the witness they bear day after day, week after week. They preach the Gospel, not by words, but by their example, by their diligence, and by their care for their students.
So on Saturday, Jan. 28, the Archdiocesan Catechetical Office will sponsor a Liturgy and Breakfast especially for Catholics who teach in public schools. It will take place at the Riverview, which overlooks the Hudson River in Hastings-on-Hudson, N.Y. The doors will open at 9:30 a.m. Bishop Dominick Lagonegro will celebrate Mass at 10 o'clock. Our guest speaker this is Sr. Peggy Murphy, O.P. a member of the Sisters of St. Dominic of Amityville, N.Y.
Sr. Peggy, who holds a doctor of ministry degree in pastoral theology from Drew University School of Theology, currently is a professor of religious studies at Mt. St. Mary College in Newburgh, N.Y., where she also has served as a division chair. An educator and counselor, she is additionally a gifted musician, and expert on Celtic spirituality. She has appeared on television with Regis Philbin and in the Broadway production of "Nunsense." Sr. Peggy is the recipient of countless awards, including several as a woman of achievement, which she certainly is. At heart, however, she is an educator.
The suggested fee is $20 per person. Many of our guests at this annual event tell us we should charge more but we want to keep it within the reach of everyone.
If you are a Catholic teaching in the public schools, you are cordially invited to join us. Or perhaps you have a friend or relative who is. Why not come and invite that teacher to join you? You'll meet lots of other like-minded men and women with whom you can share experiences, dreams and even your professional frustrations.
Just contact Helen Doon at the Catechetical Office by Wednesday, Jan. 25, at the latest. You can reach her at 212-371-1011, Ext. 2822 or e-mail email@example.com. She'll be happy to take your reservations and answer your questions.
See you there.

Founded in 1851, the charming white clapboard chapel nestled in the woods on Sugar Hill Drive in Pinopolis has a history that dates back 162 years.
Established shortly after Pinopolis was created in the mid-1800s as a summer resort for neighboring planters, St. John's Baptist Church has experienced many changes through the centuries.
Yet like the scriptural phoenix rising from the ashes, the church is again open with regular services and a small but active and growing congregation.
Services are held every Sunday morning at 8:30 a.m., with Sunday School following. The Reverend Monty Polk, a graduate of Southeastern Seminary Wake Forest, is serving as pastor.
The church's beginning harkens back to the time when Pinopolis was surrounded by great plantations, most of which are now under Lake Moultrie as a result of the Santee-Cooper Project in the 1930s.
In the 19th century, in order to escape yellow fever and malaria, plantation owners left their homes during the summer. Pine barrens were considered particularly beneficial, thus the creation of summer communities such as Pineville, Summerville and Pinopolis.
Dr. Morton Waring and Frederick Adolphus Porcher were the first to build cottages there. By 1844, there were 12 homes.
The name of the village apparently came about as a joke: "I dated for the sake of the jest several letters which I had occasion to write, 'Pinopolis,' and this became the name of the village, which now numbers between twenty and thirty very excellent dwellings," Porcher wrote.
By 1851, when St. John's was erected on land donated by the Honorable William Cain of nearby Somerset Plantation, Pinopolis was a favored summer resort not only for nearby plantation owners but Charlestonians as well.
Life in Pinopolis was gentle and slow. At one point Porcher wrote humorously that such was the monotony of village life that on Sundays, services at the various churches attracted capacity crowds.
The first St. John's Church stood about one-fourth of a mile from the present church's location. The original congregation consisted of only eight members who had transferred from Goose Creek and nearby Mt. Olivet Church.
The first pastor was the Rev. D. M. Breaker. William J. Dennis and John W. Walling were deacons.
After Mr. Breaker's resignation in 1856, he was succeeded by the Rev. Peter Huxford Sr.
During the Civil War, the population of Pinopolis burgeoned. Summer resident William Henry Ravenel recalled how the village was filled with refugees forced to flee beleaguered Charleston and how the women kept busy making clothing and medical supplies for their Soldiers Relief Association.
After the fall of Charleston in 1865, Pinopolis only just missed being burned to the ground by Northern troops.
Much of what transpired during the ensuing years was lost after church records were destroyed in a fire at the home of church trustee Cuthbert (J.C.) Hare. What is known is that in December 1884, the church moved to its present location, erected on a one-acre lot Adam Davis Hare had donated to the church.
The church is characteristic of the other buildings in Pinopolis—small and rather simple in design, constructed of white weatherboard. The interior, while still simple, shows evidence of considerable skill.
Although the church continued to prosper in the ensuing years, by 1926 a majority of the members voted to transfer their membership to Moncks Corner Baptist Church. In March 1945, the majority of those remaining agreed to transfer title of the property to the Moncks Corner church.
There were stipulations, however. The church's name, building and grounds were to be maintained in good condition in case the church could be reorganized. Services also were to be held at least once a year, if not more often.
Although the church itself lay relatively dormant, the churchyard continued as a favored place for burials. On Feb. 21, 1945, Josiah Owens McCants deeded some 2.5 acres of adjoining land, which expanded the burying ground.
Tombstones read like a Who's Who of Pinopolis and Berkeley County families and include notables such as Senator Rembert Dennis.
In recent years the church also has been the site of a number of charming weddings.
Since its humble beginning in 1851, St. John's remains an important part of the fabric of the Pinopolis community. Over the years individuals with familial and emotional connections to St. John's have contributed to sustaining the facility.
While needed renovations have been undertaken, the church building maintains its historical integrity and the church remains an important aspect of Pinopolis as a National Historic District.
Original oil lanterns still hang from the ceiling and hymns are sung to a pump organ. St. John's thus offers a unique facility that offers an equally unique worship experience as it continues, 162 years later, its mission of worshipping God and serving the community.
A special rededication service will be held at St. John's Baptist Church in Pinopolis at 9:30 a.m. on Sunday, Jan. 27. Everyone is invited.
The church is being re-consecrated as an independent body.

Chiari malformation (kee-AH-ree mal-for-MAY-shun) is a condition in which brain tissue extends into your spinal canal. It occurs when part of your skull is abnormally small or misshapen, pressing on your brain and forcing it downward.
Chiari malformation is uncommon, but improved imaging tests have led to more frequent diagnoses.
Chiari malformation type I develops as the skull and brain are growing. As a result, signs and symptoms may not occur until late childhood or adulthood. The most common pediatric form, called Chiari malformation type II, is present at birth (congenital).
Treatment of Chiari malformation depends on the form, severity and associated symptoms. Regular monitoring, medications and surgery are treatment options. In some cases, no treatment is needed.

PFS Rapid Review – Joe
By Davis Rivera
David Gordon Green, one of America's greatest living filmmakers, has returned a mere seven months after releasing Prince Avalanche to reward the world with yet another gem: the poetic and haunting Joe. Nicolas Cage is predictably strong as the titular character but it is newcomer Gary Poulter who delivers the film's strongest performance. Sadly, he died on the streets of Austin shortly after the film wrapped but his legacy will live on with this film.

CRESSON - When Bishop Guilfoyle Catholic and Penn Cambria squared off on Jan. 3 in Altoona, the Marauders eked out a 65-64 win.
The rematch wasn't anything like the first meeting.
Round 2 took place Wednesday night in PC's gym, and the Panthers got even in a big way, rolling over the Marauders, 60-34.

Penn Cambria's Mack Behe shoots over Bishop Guilfoyle's Tyler Koehle.
"Everybody just played with such energy, such passion," an obviously elated Penn Cambria coach Jim Ronan said when asked the difference in the two games.
"Offensively, we've been trying to get better in practice," Ronan said. "When we move the ball around, we're pretty tough to beat."
The Panthers moved the ball around Wednesday night, and their size advantage was too much for the Marauders on both ends of the floor.
PC's lineup includes 6-7 A.J. Leahey, 6-5 Nathan Keagy, 6-4 Mack Behe, 6-2 Devin Lawhead and 6-0 James Mardula. Conversely, BG's tallest starter is 6-3 Zach Patterson.
"If we get the defense moving, we get a lot of easy looks," Ronan said.
That's what happened Wednesday night as the Panthers played around the hoop and dominated the inside game with Lawhead scoring 17 points, Behe and Leahey 14 each.
"A lot of teams key on A.J. [Leahey], and you have to," Ronan said. "Down there [at BG], we had the same approach, but with different results. When we'd get it to the wing, we'd just stand there with the ball. Tonight, we did a great job of moving the ball from side to side, and we found the open guy easily.
"Everybody knows A.J. is probably the best scorer in the area, but it's not always good when he gets 26 and everybody else is struggling."
BG led only once, 2-0, and was never in the game. Penn Cambria led 13-6 after one quarter and 27-15 at the half as Behe contributed 10 points. The Panthers didn't ease up after intermission, either, outscoring the Marauders, 33-19, in the second half.
Penn Cambria also dominated the boards, outrebounding BG by a commanding 38-23 margin. A dismal 3-for-17 effort at the free throw line didn't help the Marauders, either.
"Our main focus was hit them hard on the boards and dominate them inside," Ronan said. "We only had five offensive rebounds the first game, and that just means we weren't aggressive."
Lawhead supported his coach's thought that the Panthers' energy was the key last night.
"At Altoona, we came out flat the first half," Lawhead noted. "We were down by 11 or 12 at halftime.
"We've put in a new offense [since losing to Bishop Carroll], and we're getting easier shots," Lawhead said. "Sometimes we were stagnant in the past and this has more movement so we can give A.J. more help."
BG coach Chris Drenning, although disappointed with the outcome, praised Penn Cambria's performance.
"First of all, Coach Ronan does a great job and they were really ready," Drenning said. "We had 10 3s [in Altoona] and shot the ball great. Tonight, we were 3-for-17 from the foul line and that's a really good team. You can't go 3-for-17 from the foul line and hope to stay in the game.
"We kept trying to generate some offense, but we couldn't seem to make a shot tonight," Drenning said, "and they had a lot to do with that.
"They are so difficult to guard, too," he said. "We tried to trap and you have to pay so much attention to Leahey that it just gets other guys open. He's so unselfish ... he's as good as anybody. The other guys are good and they're getting better shots because of him.
"They went inside and their size makes it tough offensively and defensively."
The result left both teams tied for second place in the Laurel Highlands Conference Section 1 with 4-2 records. Guilfoyle plays at league-leading Bishop Carroll on Friday while Penn Cambria visits Forest Hills on Friday.

Lack of solutions from officials is disappointing

If it ever comes up to actually putting laws on the books for speed limit regulations in construction zones for WV- That is about all it would amount to. Much as I do not like to admit it, WV does NOT like to enforce any laws on behalf of the state or its citizens (unless it is in relation to murder). Hence "never enough money to".- If WV were to enforce the majority of laws it already has on the books in all facets; coupled with an agressive manner, (for everyone) there would not be half the problems we have. WV has always been "easy" with all its laws (full of loopholes)and enforcement in general. Counties backing it up,by not enforcing their own 'ordinances" or regulations- some relatively simple. So until WV can get its "Enforcement" protocols straight, and understand that "enforcement and fines are ok" we can draft legilation etc. till the cows come home with still no lasting results. Just think how much funding resources the state cou

Former Transit Officer Charles Loubert admitted Friday he filed false overtime claims and collected $11,000 in unearned pay while working for the Niagara Frontier Transportation Authority.
Loubert, 39, pleaded guilty to two misdemeanors, petit larceny and falsifying business records, in Buffalo City Court.
The 12-year NFTA police veteran repaid the money and received a conditional discharge from Judge Craig D. Hannah.
Loubert's thefts were discovered in April when other officers alerted superiors about irregularities in the time sheets, said authority spokesman C. Douglas Hartmayer.
NFTA Police Chief George Gast launched an internal investigation and suspended Loubert without pay on April 18, Hartmayer said. The authority fired him a week later.
"He falsified his overtime sign-in sheet, whereby he was signing for overtime he didn't work," Hartmayer said.
Loubert was accused of adding overtime hours to his line on the time sheet, after a captain already had approved the sheet, Hartmayer said.
The department has since changed methods for reviewing time sheets, he said.
Loubert expressed remorse for his misconduct and offered an apology to the department and his family, said Thomas J. Keane, his lawyer.
"He is very apologetic and has paid full restitution and has taken full responsibility," Keane said. "It's unfortunate. Another cost of this was that he lost his job."
The case is unrelated to a 2010 audit by the State Comptroller's Office that found 11 transit police officers had cheated the NFTA out of $25,000 by working part-time jobs while on the authority's payroll.
The audit found some of the officers worked security jobs at other public institutions, such as the Buffalo Board of Education and Erie Community College, when they should have been on transit patrol.
Four of the 11 officers were suspended without pay for 10 to 25 days. Two transit officers who worked security at ECC were fired by the college after the double-dipping was uncovered, and the NFTA imposed new audits for hours officers work at part-time jobs.

Simulation-based education improves procedural competence in central venous catheter (CVC) insertion. The effect of simulation-based education in CVC insertion on the incidence of catheter-related bloodstream infection (CRBSI) is unknown. The aim of this study was to determine if simulation-based training in CVC insertion reduces CRBSI.
This was an observational education cohort study set in an adult intensive care unit (ICU) in an urban teaching hospital. Ninety-two internal medicine and emergency medicine residents completed a simulation-based mastery learning program in CVC insertion skills. Rates of CRBSI from CVCs inserted by residents in the ICU before and after the simulation-based educational intervention were compared over a 32-month period.
There were fewer CRBSIs after the simulator-trained residents entered the intervention ICU (0.50 infections per 1000 catheter-days) compared with both the same unit prior to the intervention (3.20 per 1000 catheter-days) (P = .001) and with another ICU in the same hospital throughout the study period (5.03 per 1000 catheter-days) (P = .001).
An educational intervention in CVC insertion significantly improved patient outcomes. Simulation-based education is a valuable adjunct in residency education.
Iatrogenic complications occur in 2.9% to 3.7% of hospitalized patients.1,2 In 2002, there were an estimated 1.7 million hospital-acquired infections in the United States.3 Central venous catheters (CVC) and associated catheter-related bloodstream infections (CRBSIs) are a major source of preventable adverse events in hospitals.4,5Patients are exposed to 15 million CVC days annually in the intensive care unit (ICU),6 resulting in 80 000 bloodstream infections.3 Each of these infections carries an attributable mortality risk of 12% to 25% in addition to substantial marginal costs.5 In 2006 and 2007, reported CRBSI rates in a national sample of adult ICUs ranged from 1.2 to 5.6 per 1000 catheter-days.7
Rates of CRBSI can be reduced by using patient care bundles that incorporate evidence-based guidelines to ensure strict adherence to sterile technique during CVC insertion.6,8Mechanisms shown to decrease infectious complications of CVC insertion include education in hand washing, use of full sterile barrier technique, chlorhexidine skin preparations, reminders to remove unnecessary catheters, and avoidance of the femoral venous site.5,8- 10
In academic medical centers, trainees commonly perform CVC insertions in critical care settings. Traditional education in CVC insertion usually involves learning at the bedside of actual patients without the opportunity for prior deliberate practice or skills assessment. Instruction in CVC insertion is important because traditional methods of procedural training are often inadequate,11- 13 and education has been shown to reduce complications.6,9 A recent decision by the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services not to reimburse hospitals for preventable events such as CRBSI14 has highlighted the need to reduce complications related to CVC insertion.
Simulation-based training has been used in multiple areas of medical education to provide opportunities for deliberate and safe practice and shape the development of clinical skills.15 In earlier work our research group used simulation-based education to improve trainee skill in simulated and actual CVC insertion.16,17 However, the effect of simulation-based education in CVC insertion on the rate of CRBSI is unknown. The aim of this study was to determine the impact of simulation-based training in CVC insertion on CRBSI in a medical ICU (MICU).
This was a study of all CRBSIs in 2 adult ICUs at Northwestern Memorial Hospital (NMH), an 897-bed tertiary care hospital in Chicago, Illinois, from August 2005 to March 2008. Monthly infection rates were compared before and after an educational intervention in the MICU, which is staffed by internal medicine and emergency medicine residents who perform daily patient care and routine bedside procedures including CVC insertion. Infection rates in a surgical ICU in which CVCs are also inserted by residents were used for comparison to exclude a hospitalwide effect. The study period began in August 2005, when patient care bundles were implemented throughout NMH ICUs, and ended in March 2008, 16 months after a simulation-based educational intervention in the MICU. The study was approved by the Northwestern University institutional review board, and all participants provided informed consent before participation.
From December 2006 to March 2008, 92 second- and third-year internal medicine and emergency medicine residents completed a simulation-based education program in CVC insertion before rotating in the MICU. Traditionally trained residents (who did not complete the simulation-based intervention) rotated in the MICU from August 2005 to December 2006 and in the surgical ICU during the entire 32-month study period. The study timeline is shown in Figure 1.
Timeline of residents rotating in the medical intensive care unit (ICU) and a comparison ICU.
The simulation-based mastery learning program in CVC insertion is described in detail elsewhere.16,17 In brief, residents in the simulator-trained group took a baseline test (pretest) in CVC insertion using a simulator and a 27-item CVC skills checklist.16 Subsequently, these residents completed 2-two hour education sessions. The first hour contained a videotaped lecture on the technique, indications, contraindications, and complications of CVC insertion and a step-by-step demonstration of CVC insertion technique. Evidence-based guidelines for CRBSI reduction were emphasized (hand washing, full sterile barrier technique, chlorhexidine skin preparation, avoidance of the femoral site, and prompt CVC removal).6,8- 10 The remaining 3 hours of education featured training with an ultrasonographic device and the opportunity for deliberate practice on the simulator with focused feedback.18 After training, residents underwent a posttest using the CVC skills checklist and were expected to meet or exceed a minimum passing score (MPS) set by an expert panel in both internal jugular and subclavian CVC insertion. Residents who did not achieve the MPS underwent more deliberate practice and were retested until the MPS was reached. This initial failure occurred in 7 of 92 residents (8%), who subsequently reached the MPS with less than 1 hour of additional practice time.
Traditionally trained internal medicine and emergency medicine residents attended a lecture series on bedside procedures at the beginning of the academic year and did not undergo training on the CVC simulator.
Central venous catheter patient care bundles were used throughout NMH during the study period. The bundles mandate sterile technique, full barrier drapes, and insertion site disinfection with chlorhexidine, 2%, according to recommendations of the Institute for Healthcare Improvement (IHI).19 In the last 4 months of the 32-month study period, chlorhexidine-impregnated body wipes were used for most patients in the MICU. There were no other infection control interventions during the study period. To determine whether changes in patient case mix might affect CRBSI rates, we used the mean Charlson comorbidity score20 to compare the severity of illness (based on International Classification of Diseases, Ninth Revision [ICD-9]–coded secondary diagnoses) of all patients with a CVC insertion in the MICU during the study period. Mean Charlson score before and after the intervention as well as the proportion of patients in each period with a principal diagnosis of sepsis were used to determine if there had been a change in illness severity.
Rates of CRBSI per 1000 catheter-days were measured monthly by NMH's infection control committee in accordance with protocols described by the National Healthcare Safety Network (NSHN), formerly the National Nosocomial Infections Surveillance System.8,21 All positive blood cultures in both ICUs were identified, and medical records reviewed by trained infection control personnel to determine if criteria for CRBSI were met. Infection control personnel determined CRBSI rates in accordance with routine NMH policies and were blind to the nature of this study and the timing of the simulation-based intervention.
As used in previous CRBSI studies,6,8,22 and because CRBSI are rare events, multivariate Poisson regression modeling (Stata software, version 10; StataCorp LP, College Station, Texas) was used to test the likelihood of infection as a function of ICU location (MICU vs surgical ICU) and period, whether MICU patients were cared for before or after the educational intervention. The number of catheter-days was included as the exposure variable.
There were 3.20 infections per 1000 catheter-days (25 CRBSIs in 7809 catheter-days) in the MICU and 4.86 infections per 1000 catheter-days (22 CRBSIs in 4524 catheter-days) in the surgical ICU in the 16 months after initiation of CVC patient care bundles and before the educational intervention. During the 16-month educational intervention, when all second- and third-year residents in the MICU received simulation training, the CRBSI rate was sharply reduced to 0.50 per 1000 catheter-days (4 CRBSIs in 8060 catheter-days). However, the surgical ICU CRBSI rate remained at 5.26 per 1000 catheter-days (17 CRBSIs in 3227 catheter-days). Patients in the MICU had a significantly lower number of CRBSIs after the simulation-based educational intervention (P = .001) (Figure 2).

The vertical line at December 2006 indicates the time that simulator-trained residents entered the MICU.
After simulation-based training, there was a significantly lower rate of CRBSI in the MICU than in the surgical ICU, where no trained residents rotated (P = .001) (Figure 2). The incidence rate ratio derived from the Poisson regression (0.16; 95% CI, 0.05-0.44) indicates that there was an 84.5% reduction in the incidence of CRBSI in the postintervention MICU compared with the preintervention MICU or the surgical ICU throughout the study period. The mean Charlson score for MICU patients with CVCs actually increased significantly in the postintervention period, from 3.46 to 4.01 (P = .009), and the proportion of patients with a principal diagnosis of sepsis likewise increased during the intervention period from 21.6% to 29.7% (P = .02).
This study demonstrates that use of a simulation-based mastery education program in CVC insertion significantly reduced the rate of iatrogenic infectious complications in a MICU. These results extend our group's previous findings that simulation-based education improved CVC insertion skill in actual clinical care.16,17 Our findings also confirm the transfer of skill acquired in the simulated environment to improved patient care in CVC insertion as well as advanced cardiac life support.13 These results add to the growing body of literature documenting that simulation-based education improves the quality of care patients receive in such diverse areas as laparoscopic surgery,11 bronchoscopy,23 emergency airway management,24 and endoscopy.25
Throughout our 32-month study, 98% of CVCs in the MICU were inserted by trainees. In the 16-month period when simulator-trained residents inserted CVCs, there was an 84.5% reduction in the incidence of CRBSI despite a rise in mean Charlson score and percentage of patients with sepsis in the postintervention period. This compares favorably with results of other studies using patient care bundles8 and chlorhexidine baths22 to reduce CRBSI. Another particularly encouraging finding from this study is the reduction in the rate of MICU CRBSI to 0.50 per 1000 catheter-days, which is lower than the reported national average.7 This suggests that simulation-based training and interventions such as patient care bundles can be used together to reduce CRBSI rates in a teaching-hospital ICU setting.
This study has several limitations. First, it was performed in a single institution and reflects a small number of CRBSIs over a relatively short time period. Second, the presence of unknown factors resulting in a reduction of CRBSI rate cannot be ruled out, despite comparison with the CRBSI rate in another ICU. However, in our lengthy discussions with clinicians, infection control nurses, and hospital staff, we could not identify any other plausible mechanism for the observed highly significant reduction in CRBSI rates. In addition, there was increased severity of illness among MICU patients with CVCs after the educational intervention. Third, compliance with patient care bundles in the ICUs was not measured. However, bundle usage was standard practice throughout NMH during the study period. The effect of simulation training may be partially explained by reinforcement of topics covered in the didactic curriculum such as prompt removal of CVCs and avoidance of the femoral site. However, the intervention was highly focused on hands-on practice of CVC insertion, so we do not believe that the observed benefits are largely due to the didactic content of the sessions. Finally, residents were aware of their participation in a study of the effect of simulation-based training on immediate measures of CVC insertion quality such as number of needle passes, arterial puncture, and pneumothorax and may have altered their behavior as a result. However, data collection and analysis of CRBSI rates were performed by hospital personnel who were completely independent from residents and teaching faculty involved in the educational intervention, and residents were not aware that CRBSI rates were being studied.
In conclusion, this study demonstrates that a simulation-based mastery learning program in CVC insertion for internal medicine and emergency medicine residents dramatically reduced CRBSIs in a MICU. Rigorous education and assessment of procedural competence had important implications for the quality of care provided by trainees. Our results suggest that physicians in training can be important partners in quality-of-care initiatives at an academic medical center and that simulation-based education is a valuable adjunct to standard clinical training.
