Offer your cat an amazingly effective, non-intrusive solution for anxiety that has already worked on thousands of dogs: Thundershirt for Cats!
How It Works
With its patent-pending design, the new Thundershirt for Cats applies gentle, constant pressure to their torso. This pressure has a dramatic calming effect for cats if they are anxious or fearful. Thundershirt has already helped thousands of dogs around the world, and is recommended by veterinarians and dog trainers alike. And the results for cats is just as impressive. Cat owners and veterinarians are amazed by the positive impact a Thundershirt can have with cats.
Thundershirt's gentle pressure works to calm your cats, because anxiety experts believe that pressure has a calming effect on the nervous system and may release calming hormones like endorphins or oxytocins. Using pressure to relieve anxiety has been a common practicefor years. For example:
Until now, there just hasn't been a well-designed, inexpensive solution commonly used for cat anxiety. Thundershirt for Cats is changing that!
Thundershirt for Cats is:
Among the Thundershirt's many uses:
The "Freeze & Flop"
When first wearing a Thundershirt, some cats will behave as if they are immobilized and may even "fall over". Don't worry! The Thundershirt is not causing discomfort; they just need time to adjust to the new sensations. Cats are amazingly sensitive to touch and sometimes require a little more adjustment time in the beginning. But this also means that many are even more responsive than dogs to the gentle, calming pressure of a Thundershirt! Please repeat the initial conditioning (see the "Instructions" tab for more details) to address this issue.
Thundershirt for Cats is available in Heather Gray color in three sizes:
Thundeshirt's return policy allows for you to open the product and test it out on your pet for up to 30 days. If you're not satisfied, return the Thundershirt in its original condition within the 30 day limit.

About Me Long-time Pet Owner
Comments about Thunder Shirt Thundershirt for Cats:
Was excited to receive this but when it arrived it was too small. Also, it obviously had been used before because it had pet hair all over it! When contacting customer service they were not helpful. The policy that it had to be returned, a refund issues and not just a replacement sent with a free shipping label for the wrong one was very disappointing.
Bottom Line No, I would not recommend this to a friend

Thundershirts are wonderful!
By jan
from Courtenay, North Dakota
Our one ct has been very anxious for the past year and a half. We have tried everything from pills, to sprays to baths, etc. He kept licking all over until he had sores and no hair left on his stomach area. The thunder shirt has allowed the hair to grow back and he seems more content. I really seems to be working.
Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

Save your money, buy a dog t-shirt.
By Victoria
from Cincinnati, OH
A small dog T-shirt will have the same effect for a cat, but won't cost you $40. We have also successfully used a baby hoodie to help with anxiety during thunderstorms.

Amazing Thunder Shirt
By Donna the cat lover
from Northern, NJ
My 1 y/o cat has been wearing the thunder shirt for 2 months now and he loves it. He is very active and bothers the older f/m cat. As soon as we put it on, he calms down and does not bother her. He will wear it over night and some times during the day. It is comfortable and he can move about normally. It has been the answer to our behavior problem. Would definitely recommend it.

Did not Work
By ScaredyCat

I really wanted this to work. I have a Persian and she is a scaredy cat. I followed the instructions. But everytime I tried to apply this shirt to the cat, she was so afraid of it, it was awful. Now she uses it as a pillow.

Brilliant--excellent for travel
By Catapult
from San Francisco, CA
I was so happy to find this. I was looking to fly with my cats and wanted to find something that would support them from the chaos and stress. I cancelled my plans, but I tried it on both cats at home who got very mellow when they could have found it irritating. I believe it would be great for trips to the vet as well. (I saw a video of a very mellow cat at the vet).After trial and error I found the medium was the best size, albeit a bit big on my smaller cat requiring me to put it on as tight as I could to prevent her front paw from going in the neck and her walking out of it. On my bigger male it was the closest right size but it fit very snug under the elbows. I would check it during the trip to make sure it wasn't binding. I think it would help cats during cooler air travel as it would act as a coat. But it could overheat them in summer. Overall, I'm very impressed with how they mellowed out with the Thundershirts. Give them 30 min. a day to get used to it. Flopping over is normal. Now where can I get one for me? ;-)

Angels' Glow for cats and dogs works from within
your pet to eliminate tearstains. Unlike topical products that only
remove tearstains temporarily, Angels' Glow works before the stains
occur to keep your pet's coat clean and attractive.
Use this medication only as directed by your veterinarian.
Do not stop using this product unless told to do so by your veterinarian.
Do not allow children to administer Angels' Glow.
Use daily for 3 months. After that time, reduce dosing
to 4 times per week. If symptoms remain controlled, reduce dosing after
6 months to 2 times per week.
Store Angels' Glow at room temperature, out of reach
of pets and children. Protect from heat and moisture.
It is a violation of Federal
Law to use this product in a manner inconsistent with its labeling.
Angels' Glow works by eliminating Ptyrosporin, a
bacterial infection that causes excessive tearing and staining in some
animals. Tylosin tartrate, a macrolid antibiotic, destroys the bacteria
responsible for the tearing and staining. Angels' Glow will not remove
existing stains; the product works to prevent new stains from discoloring
your dog's coat.
Keep this product out of reach of children and animals.
Do not use or store in or near open flame or heat.
Angels' Glow is intended for use in dogs only. It
may also be used in cats. Do not give to other animals or to humans.
CAUTION: The active ingredient in Angels'
Glow, a macrolide antibiotic, might trigger falsely elevated AST and
ALT values when using colormetric assay.
Do not alter the dosing schedule for this product.
Macrolide antibiotics are more effective when taking regularly to ensure
constant levels in the blood.
Although this product is well tolerated and not associated
with side effects, individual sensitivities may occur. Consult your
veterinarian with questions or concerns.
Do not use this medication in animals with a known
allergy to it or to similar medications.

Wednesday, April 9, 2014
The Space and Naval Warfare (SPAWAR) Systems Center Atlantic and the South Carolina Lowcountry Chapter of the Armed Forces Communications and Electronics Association (AFCEA) are jointly organizing the 2014 Palmetto Cyber Defense Competition (PCDC). The goal of the PCDC is to energize South Carolina colleges and high schools and their students to focus on the development of technical skills in the areas of networking and cyber security in preparation for exciting careers in Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics (STEM). The competition will be conducted April 12-13, in the College Center at the Complex for Economic Development at Trident Technical College in North Charleston. The competition runs from 7:30 a.m. to 6:30 p.m. each day.
The competition venue is free and open to the public, so students and parents, school administrators and teachers, cyber security industry professionals or interested observers from the general public are all welcome to observe and cheer on the students as they compete. The competition is organized and run by more than 100 volunteers from SPAWAR Systems Center Atlantic, members of the S.C. Lowcountry Chapter of AFCEA International and local cyber security industry professionals.
Richard Clarke, an internationally recognized homeland security, national security, cyber security and counterterrorism expert and New York Times best-selling author will be the featured guest speaker on Saturday. President Obama recently appointed Clarke as a member of a review group on intelligence and communications technologies. Clarke had previously served the last three presidents as a senior White House advisor, including special advisor to the president for cyber security.
On Sunday, the featured guest speaker will be Celeste M. Matarazzo, a data science expert with more than 27 years of service at the Lawrence Livermore National Labs Computation Directorate. Since November 2008, she has served as a principal investigator within the Center for Applied Scientific Computing, leading a large LLNL-funded strategic initiative research project in cyber security situational awareness. She is also the associate program leader for Network Exploitation for the Global Security Directorate and deputy director of the Network Security Innovation Center.
During the competition, students from each school will form Blue Teams of six competitors that are responsible for operating a small business network. Each of the teams will be provided with a malconfigured business network at the start of the competition and will be challenged to properly reconfigure the network, add new services and respond to additional requirements, all the while defending against a Red Team of SPAWAR volunteers attempting to disrupt and penetrate their network. Blue Teams will be scored for accomplishing administrative and business tasks while maintaining network/service availability, such as mail, database and web servers, as well as their ability to detect and respond to cyber threats. Teams must also be able to respond to business requests, such as the addition or removal of services, and balance security needs against business needs. Winning schools will be awarded trophies and provided technology grants from AFCEA and individual competitors on the winning teams will be awarded medals and academic scholarships.
The competition will involve teams from S.C. colleges and universities on April 12, followed on April 13 by teams from S.C. high schools who prequalified for the event in earlier cyber defense competitions.
The competition, awards, scholarships and technology grants were made possible through the generous support of many industry and institutional sponsors and volunteers, to include Dell, CACI, Trident Technical College, CISCO Sourcefire, Secure Mission Solutions, AFCEA International, Lockheed Martin, Pro2Serve, the Advanced Cyberforensics Education Consortium, the Rural Technology Fund, ISHPI, Scitor Corporation, Southern Educational Systems, SRC, IMS, Vistronix, ITT Technical Institute, Sentar, the Air Force Association, the Law Office of Leanne M. Innet, as well as competition organizers SPAWAR Systems Center Atlantic and the AFCEA South Carolina Lowcountry Chapter.

A usually temporary fit of rage to psychosis brought on by high thyroid hormones from Graves' Disease. Because of the hormonal cause, Graves' Rage can strike without warning and last more than 12 hours. People afflicted with bouts of Graves' Rage suffer symptoms of cynicism, anger, sarcasm, emotional hypersensitivity and brutal honesty.

CHARLES TOWN - A small mountain community along the Blue Ridge Mountain, Mannings will, for the time being, remain an unincorporated town.
In 2009, when Paul Ashbaugh brought forth the petition for the possibility of Mannings becoming incorporated, he was met with opposition from residents. When the same petition was resubmitted for a public hearing, much of the same opposition was felt.
Commissioner Lyn Widmyer said that according to state law, the petition has to be taken as submitted by the applicant. The information cannot be changed or verified, before going to public hearing.
Article Photos
Journal photo by Michelle Horst
Stephanie Grove, assistant prosecuting attorney for Jefferson County, will draft an order stating reasons why the commission denied the petition of Mannings to incorporate.
With an unanimous vote Thursday morning, the commission denied the petition and instructed assistant prosecuting attorney Stephanie Grove to write an order stating the reasons for the denial.
"There are certain requirements that a petition has to meet under the code," Grove said. "Because the signatures were old, from 2009, because the commission had already rejected that same petition before, because the map had been changed, there was an allegation of forgery and Mr. Ashbaugh himself had notarized some of the signatures, the petition was rejected."
Grove said she told the commission there is no case law that addressed how often a petition can be brought back.
The state code itself states that if it goes to a vote, they have to wait three years before it can be submitted and it also states "subsequent" petition.
"Whenever you bring a new petition, it has to have new signatures," Grove said.
A new petition, with freshly signed signatures, can be resubmitted to the commission at any time. The process would begin again, and after a public hearing the commissioners would decide if the petition goes before the people for a vote.
Commission president Dale Manuel said he is not opposed to the people of Mannings having a vote, but he believed the petition needs to be rewritten before it comes before the people for a vote.
"I think, at some point, there may be a vote on the mountain on the Mannings proposal, but not now," Manuel said.
Manuel said he felt the vote of the commission represented well what was heard at the public hearing, and also what he had been hearing from residents.
"A lot of folks had concerns about taxes," Manuel said. "I'm not sure they are all aware of the implications that could be."

With one swing, Giancarlo Stanton knocked out lights on the scoreboard, spoiled Jamie Moyer�s first look at Marlins Park and put Miami on top to stay.
Stanton hit a grand slam off Moyer to cap a five-run fourth inning, Mark Buehrle was dominant after a shaky first, and the Marlins stayed hot by beating the Colorado Rockies 7-4 on Monday night.
�Maybe the farthest. I don�t know about the hardest,� Stanton said when asked how his 438-foot shot compared to the other eight homers he�s hit this season. �But that was pretty good.�
Austin Kearns tied a career-best with four hits for the Marlins, whose 15-5 record in May leads the majors.
Buehrle (4-4) worked 7 2/3 innings, giving up four runs and four hits in the first and one more hit the rest of the way.
�When you talk about bulldog, when you talk about gamer, there�s a lot of fake out there,� Marlins manager Ozzie Guillen said of Buehrle. �There�s a lot of fake bulldogs. This kid�s for real.�
Moyer (2-4) allowed nine hits and six runs in 3 2/3 innings in his debut at Marlins Park, the 50th big-league stadium in which the 49-year-old has appeared during his career.
Troy Tulowitzki hit a two-run home run, and Michael Cuddyer had a two-run double for the Rockies.
�It�s hard to win when you get 3 2/3 from your starter and over 100 pitches,� Rockies manager Jim Tracy said. �We get four hits and four runs with the first five hitters in the game, and we get one hit and two walks from the second inning on.�
Stanton wasn�t even born when Moyer�s career began in 1986. His first game against him was one to remember.
Miami�s big fourth got going with one out when Buehrle hit a soft double � the second of his career. He scored when Jose Reyes� single was bobbled by center fielder Dexter Fowler. Moyer nearly escaped further trouble but walked Hanley Ramirez on a full count with two out, then walked Kearns to load the bases.
That brought up Stanton, who watched Moyer�s 2-2 offering just miss � replays showed the inside pitch wasn�t out of the zone by much, if at all.
�I kind of backed myself into a corner � walks, a lot of pitches, deep in the count,� Moyer said. �It�s not the way to be an efficient pitcher. Ultimately, I got what I deserved.�
Moyer�s next pitch was 72 mph. It went out faster.
Stanton�s ninth home run of the season and fourth career grand slam went down the left field line, the impact of its collision with the video board over the left-field concourse temporarily knocking out a portion of the digital display. The Marlins had a 6-4 lead, and the crowd roared for nearly a minute before Stanton acknowledged their desire for a curtain call.
�I looked it up, and 1986 was his debut, and I wasn�t even a thought at that moment,� Stanton said of facing Moyer. �I was born three years later.�
Meanwhile, Buehrle was in a groove.
Buehrle got hit hard in the first, literally and figuratively. Jordan Pacheco lined a ball off Buehrle with one out and scored along with Carlos Gonzalez two batters later when Cuddyer�s double beat Kearns to the left-field wall. Tulowitzki followed with a homer to left that put the Rockies up 4-0 before Moyer even saw the mound.
Buehrle didn�t give up another hit until Pacheco�s two-out single in the eighth, tipping his cap to the crowd as he departed. Heath Bell pitched the ninth for his sixth save in 10 chances for Miami.
�The first inning, I thought it was going to be a long night,� Buehrle said.
Moyer has pitched in more ballparks than anyone since at least 1921 and was 8-2 in the Marlins� former home, Sun Life Stadium. Guillen � one of 11 current managers to bat against Moyer in their careers � went 4-for-22 against the lefty, and several members of the Miami coaching staff and front office also have faced him at one time or another.
�I don�t remember much,� Guillen said about his times against Moyer. �I know he went from very bad to very good to very old. ... I feel proud to know him.�

We're already seeing the wide-reaching impact of Gov. Scott McCallum's proposal to eliminate shared revenues to local governments - and the budget repair bill isn't even through the Legislature yet.
The Tomahawk City Council has a contingency plan in the works to reduce its budget to make up for the lost revenues. In Merrill, 11 teachers are working under the ominous axe after receiving notice that their jobs are on the line if proposed state budget cuts come to fruition. The Merrill School District still has about $1 million to cut, even with the teacher lay-offs, to stay afloat.
The City of Merrill, Lincoln County and virtually every other municipality in the state has similar hard choices to make.
McCallum says he wants to facilitate a fundamental change in the structure of Wisconsin government. He is hoping to see the number of government entities reduced through consolidation. That's a fine goal, but not likely to work under friendly circumstances. We just don't see townships giving up their local governments without a fight. But, this is a fight in which the small municipalities are outgunned by the state.
With the proposed budget cuts laid out in the City of Tomahawk, we can better understand the impact of McCallum's budget repair plan. Tomahawk would lose its summer recreation program, lifeguards at SARA Park and additional park maintenance in the summers. We'll have to live with bumpier roads and the police department won't have the latest equipment.
Yes, we will survive. But the cuts targeted so far only cover this year. By 2004, the cuts would have to go about a half-million dollars deeper. That's going to force the city to not only change the way it does business, but we're going to lose more services, no doubt about it.
The state can't just pull the rug out from under local governments without offering some kind of new program to replace the shared revenue system. If McCallum really wants to reduce local government in Wisconsin, he should present an organized process for doing so. This survival of the fittest approach to weeding out government entities isn't the answer.

with game looking like they cant stock ea games, id give them a year at best... leaves me to think were will i get the next xbox instore (prob hmv or pc world or a supermarket)
You can now sign up to be notified when they have the Collectors Edition but you can't actually order it.
Mass Effect 3 - MEHEM and Extended Anderson Conversation: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hmofIH7rN9U.
just clocked on grainger games, they doing the n7 instore ?
I am just refreshing this page as it will show amazons link when its on their site and I can see where the warfare packs are going
I'm refreshing that and Amazon.co.uk.
Wasn't that keen on ordering from GAME as I'd have to pay cash but since I've got gift vouchers for Amazon from Christmas I'll gladly use them up for the Collectors Edition.
I just hope that Amazon do some preorder DLC for the N7 edition as the other 3 sites are not
They offer the Argus rifle for the regular edition, so that should be on the N7 version as well.
No news on the N7 Warfare Pack yet though.
If amazon get the n7 stuff I'm cancelling play and getting amazon although I can see both play and amazon getting it
Its up on Amazon now to preorder and is the cheapest at £55.88. Still nothing about any DLC bonuses though but at that price who cares
Its now saying no longer available. They must have known they stuffed up
Yep just ordered my PC Collectors Edition from Amazon. Oddly more expensive than the console versions but since it is gift certificates paying for it I'm happy.
£55? If it stays that I'll cancel my Shopto and go with them, haha. I'm guessing they're going to put it around £65, though.
It's not available to order at the moment FGG.
So they've either sold out very quick or are changing the prices.
I'll wait to see how much it is at Amazon when they put it back up and go with the cheapest option, £55 seemed too good to be true.
PSN: Inapplicable - pretty much over there now.#88
Yeah I added it and went to pay and it didn't go through. They must have realised their mistake with the price, damn it.
Out of all of them I am hoping that amazon have the warfare pack as amazon.de have it on their site with the warfare pack and the M55 argus for pre order bonus
What's in the warfare pack? I thought it came with the actual product along with the DLC?

on February 6, 2013 - 9:39 PM
The charge against a "scrapper," cited for illegally collecting material left curbside in the Town of Tonawanda, was dismissed Wednesday night as a bench trial was to begin because of new information in the case.
Even so, Don DalFonso of Buffalo continued to speak out against the town ordinance, under which he had been cited last Oct. 1 for "interference with waste material set out for collection" on McConkey Drive.
"It's still wrong. It's still totally wrong," DalFonso said after leaving the courtroom. "I don't care what they say.
"They're still singling me out. That's the bottom line," DalFonso continued. He said other scrappers have told him that Town of Tonawanda police drive past them.
An admitted repeat offender, DalFonso was scheduled for a non-jury trial before Town Justice Daniel T. Cavarello. People found guilty of violations first receive written warnings, then fines that increase with subsequent violations.
In December, Cavarello denied a motion to dismiss the case made by defense attorney John C. Nelson, who challenged the legal sufficiency of the charge.
Town prosecutor Mario A. Giacobbe, who said he'd been preparing for the trial since that ruling, made a motion Wednesday night to dismiss the charge. Before doing so, he said there was no doubt that DalFonso took a wheel and tire; DalFonso admitted as much during his first court appearance, the prosecutor said.
Before presenting his motion to dismiss, Giacobbe explained: "During the course of my investigation … new information has come to my attention that creates some doubt as to the location where it occurred … I made my decision after consulting with the police officer in this case."
He said there is some discrepancy between where the officer may have observed DalFonso and where the violation took place.
The prosecutor added, however, that he wanted to make something clear: "These cases will continue to be aggressively prosecuted here in the town."
The judge noted there were no Constitutional grounds for dismissal. He asked DalFonso if he understood why the case was being dismissed, then added: "I don't want you to leave here with any misunderstanding."
Cavarello said the ordinance still is on the books, before granting the prosecutor's motion to dismiss.
When asked later to comment about the reason given for the dismissal, DalFonso suggested it had more to do with a warrant-less search he was subjected to by police that night last October.

NORTH TONAWANDA – Back home after a five-month stint working as a contract paramedic with the Army in Kabul, Afghanistan, Jeff Abbott had a new appreciation for the sacrifices of the military life and a new plan: found a 5-kilometer running race on the Saturday of Memorial Day weekend to raise money for the Wounded Warrior Project.
The nonprofit aid organization for injured servicemen and women is a fitting tribute for the people he got to know from May to September of last year as he went out on medical calls that privacy concerns keep him from discussing in detail.
"We convoyed security personnel back and forth from the embassy to our base. When we were on the embassy, we provided care to any emergencies or sick calls on the embassy. It was enlightening. I have a better appreciation, obviously, for what the military does," said Abbott, 37. "You didn't go anywhere unless you were in an armored vehicle. It's a dangerous place. I can't really elaborate on much of what we did over there. It was humbling for a civilian medic to be integrated into a military, austere, environment."
Abbott, a father of four, married for the second time when he returned home. His wife doesn't want him to go on any more dangerous foreign assignments. He appreciates veterans more than he did before. He is more aware of the credit they deserve for the comforts of home, technology and freedom to travel without fear.
In that spirit he has named the race "Gratitude Run." The Common Council approved the May 25 date and the route – from Mayor's Park on Sweeney Street to Fisherman's Park across from the Recreational Warehouse on River Road.
While he is still working out the rest of the details, such as cost and start time, people who are interested should write to him at firstname.lastname@example.com
What is your profession?
I am a man of many hats. I've been a paramedic for 13 years. I am also an ironworker at Local 9. Steel structures of buildings: We put those up. A lot of indoor plant work. Structural steel welding. Anything that involves metal really. I am assistant director of emergency management for North Tonawanda.
What was it like in Afghanistan?
Here you take a 911 call and, until events recently, you don't worry about being shot at. Not to say I was worried about getting shot at. You didn't go anywhere where you weren't armed. We always had a weapon. There's 20 foot jersey barriers everywhere.
A jersey barrier?
You know those concrete dividers on the Thruway? Those, but they're 20 feet tall. There's Afghan army everywhere.
You hear about these "green-on-blue" killings …
Green-on-blue killings?
When the Afghan army would turn around and arbitrarily shoot a soldier … The Afghan army was everywhere. There were checkpoints everywhere. They wear green uniforms …
And "blue"? Meaning Americans?
I think it was the red, white and blue.
I was safe for the most part. They don't shoot over there. They blow things up. It's not so much shootings, it's the explosions.
Was there anything beautiful?
The mountains are beautiful. The sunsets are real nice. It's a dirty city. They burn fires for heat in the winter. It's definitely a third world nation. We worked with "Ghurkas," Nepalese nationals. I picked up some of their language. "Namaste." It means, "hi" and "goodbye." They're happy guys, diligent in their duties. They were guards.
We interacted with a lot of local nationals. They did the cleaning and cooking on our base. Because of the language barrier it was very cordial, but you didn't get too in-depth with them. They were just people happy to have jobs, I'm assuming.
What else did you see?
They set up a lot of bazaars. I bought a khukuri. It's a Nepalese knife. You see it in all the depictions of the characters. It's like that curved blade. They made suits, tailored suits right there. Gems. Lots of gems over there. Rubies. Diamonds. They made their own jewelry. Then they sell high-end watches at discount prices. Antique weapons. Beautiful, beautiful vintage antique rifles. From when the British occupied Afghanistan. They claim there's still caches of weapons in the mountains. An "enthusiastic" Army colonel told me that, a gun "enthusiast."
So you don't think you'll go back to Afghanistan for work?
The wife has forbidden it. If I wasn't married and I didn't have little kids, I'd be over there or somewhere around the world contracting. The money's great in contracting. The skill set of being a paramedic is a sought-after trade in the contracting world. It's a team effort, it's militaristic. You're part of a team. Everyone has a role.
Is there anything else about your experience that you can talk about?
When you're deployed and you're not working, they say all there is to do is work out and eat. So I worked out a lot. I got back in shape. I put on some weight from my knee surgery in 2010. When I came home I thought, "I want to try a 5K."
I looked around for a 5K in North Tonawanda, I didn't see one so I thought, "I'll start my own." I'm not a runner. I didn't know the ins and outs of finding them. You see the Turkey Trot and the Shamrock Run. The Shamrock Run seemed a little cold and the Turkey Trot seemed far away. So I thought, "Ah, we'll do one on Memorial Day."
I hope we get a good outcome, raise a good amount of money. I would like to get some of our local vets involved.
Working in Afghanistan gave you a new appreciation for the military?
Contracting is mostly ex-military guys. I was humbled to be one of the few civilian medics. I was honored to be working with such experienced and dedicated guys – a lot of young kids that have been to war, that have seen far more and experienced a lot more than a lot of what we consider experienced adults in the civilian world.
The life we live and the life we have in this country is based solely on what the military has done, the sacrifices that they have made.
I met a lot of great guys. I'm confident in my skills and my experience as a paramedic, but I was absolutely mesmerized at the training and knowledge of the Army's 18 Delta medics. You ever hear of "The Delta Force"? The old Chuck Norris movie? That's the same thing.
We had nothing on our base. You go over there, you get up and you go to work, you get tight with the guys you're with. To me it was a culture shock. There were a lot of guys who helped me along and helped me out.

By Mark Gaughan
Rookie quarterbacks have been the story of the season through the first half of the 2012 NFL campaign.
First overall pick Andrew Luck has the Indianapolis Colts at 6-3 and in position for a playoff berth. Luck ranks third in the league in passing yards. He already has four 300-yard passing games and needs just one more to set the rookie record. Most prognosticators had the Colts going 4-12 or worse.
"That's why he was the first player taken in the draft," said Colts receiver Reggie Wayne. "He's special."
Third-round pick Russell Wilson is 5-4 for Seattle and already has directed wins over New England, Green Bay and Dallas. Wilson has 13 TDs and eight interceptions.
Second overall pick Robert Griffin III has looked dynamic for 3-6 Washington. He has produced 14 TDs and has thrown three interceptions. He has the second lowest interception rate in the league. He has 529 rushing yards and six rushing TDs.
Miami's Ryan Tannehill, the eighth overall pick, is 4-4 for a Dolphins team that was predicted to be awful. Tannehill's statistics aren't wonderful - his passer rating ranks 27th - but he isn't just dinking and dunking in a straight-jacket offense. His yards per attempt average of 7.31 is 15th. Last of the rookie starters is Cleveland's Brandon Weeden, who is operating in a weapon-deficient offense for the 1-7 Browns. Weeden ranks last in the league among starters in numerous categories. But as he showed in the Browns' loss to Buffalo, he passes the "eyeball test." He's big, with a good arm. He offers the Browns a glimmer of hope.
The best quarterback class in the last 20 years came in 2004, which produced Eli Manning, Ben Roethlisberger, Philip Rivers and Matt Schaub. The 2012 class looks like it will be second to that one over the past 20 years - at worst.
Here's a look at the rest of the NFL at midseason:
• Super Bowl favorites: The top seeds for the Super Bowl at midseason are Atlanta (8-0) in the NFC and Houston (7-1) in the AFC. Both are far from prohibitive favorites, making the race to New Orleans wide open.
Atlanta quarterback Matt Ryan is having a great season and is an elite talent. He's making better use of his downfield weapons under first-year coordinator Dirk Koetter. The question is, how legitimate is Atlanta's defense? The Falcons are 19th in yards allowed and 24th against the run. Chicago, San Francisco, Green Bay and the defending champion New York Giants all loom as major challengers to the Falcons.
Houston looks dominant on both offense and defense. But the Texans' schedule is not that tough, and they face fewer tests from elite foes. Is quarterback Schaub good enough to outduel New England's Tom Brady or Pittsburgh's Roethlisberger in the playoffs?
Take your pick. The forecast here is Pittsburgh vs. San Francisco for the title on Feb. 3.
• MVP race: 1. Atlanta's Ryan. 2. Houston defensive end J.J. Watt. 3. New England's Brady. 4. Denver's Peyton Manning. 5. Pittsburgh's Roethlisberger.
• Defensive player of the year: 1. Houston's Watt. 2. Chicago cornerback Charles Tillman. 3. Denver pass rusher Von Miller. 4. Dallas pass rusher DeMarcus Ware. Watt leads the league with 10.5 sacks and has 10 passes defended. Tillman leads the league with seven forced fumbles and has two interceptions.
• Coach of the year: 1. Atlanta's Mike Smith. 2. Chicago's Lovie Smith. 3. Bruce Arians and Chuck Pagano of Indianapolis. This will go down to the wire. Chicago leads the league in takeaways with 28 and is plus-16 in turnover differential. The Bears have seven defensive touchdowns.
• Offensive rookie of the year: 1. Luck. 2. Griffin. 3. Tampa running back Doug Martin.
• Defensive rookie of the year: 1. New England defensive end Chandler Jones. 2. Seattle cornerback Bobby Wagner. 3. Carolina LB Luke Kuechly.
• Comeback player of the year: 1. Manning. 2. Minnesota's Adrian Peterson.
• Most disappointing team: 1. Philadelphia. 2. Dallas. 3. Kansas City. Dallas is the most confounding team in the league. The Cowboys rank sixth in yards gained and fifth in yards allowed yet stand 3-5. QB Tony Romo threw for 437 yards in the 29-24 loss to the Giants, yet had a passer rating of only 58. There's a long line of teams that could be on this list, including Buffalo. Kansas City (1-7) was picked by numerous outlets, including Sports Illustrated, to make the playoffs.
• Big games: Bears at 49ers, Nov. 19; Packers at Giants, Nov. 25; Texans at Pats, Dec. 10; Packers at Bears, Giants at Falcons and 49ers at Patriots, Dec. 16.
Amazing Gonzalez
Atlanta's Tony Gonzalez continues to dominate Father Time. Gonzalez, 36, has 50 catches at midseason for 495 yards. The 100-catch mark has been achieved 70 times in league history. Gonzalez did it once, catching 102 passes as a 28-year-old in 2004. The oldest player to catch 100 was Jerry Rice, who had 108 catches at age 34 in 1996.
Onside kicks
• Over the past five seasons, only two teams have been 3-5 at midseason and have made the playoffs. They were the Denver Broncos last season and the 2008 Chargers. Both finished 8-8 to win weak divisions. Since 2000, 29 teams have reached the halfway point of the season with a .500 or below winning percentage and made the playoffs, including at least one in every season.
• With a win over New Orleans, Atlanta would become the ninth team since realignment in '02 to start 9-0.
• Denver's Manning is third in TD passes all-time at 419. Second is Dan Marino with 420. No. 1 is Brett Favre at 508.
• Manning has the fourth most wins as a starter with a record of 146-70. Favre is first at 186-112. John Elway is second at 148-82-1. Marino is third at 147-93. Tom Brady is fifth at 129-38 (and he has by far the best win percentage at .772.)

It's been a wicked week, obviously, and the Frankenstorm certainly will have an impact on wildlife and wildlife habitat. Raging winds and waters have uprooted many trees in the areas you like to hunt. Streams are rearranged any time severe water stress is experienced. No doubt some of your favorite holes were washed away but new ones will have been created.
Last year the aftermath of a hurricane severely damaged a pheasant farm and many of the birds were scattered. It resulted in many fewer pheasants being released last fall. Pheasants have been released all across the state already, before this storm hit, and no doubt many game farm pheasants were casualties. Foxes and coyotes and crows will have a banquet on these hapless birds.
Wildlife of all species will be affected. Deer and bear - and especially their young - drown when streams and rivers rage. Trees have fallen on animals and birds, trapping and dooming them. And bear dens under tree roots or in any low place were flooded. Thankfully, cubs are not born until January so are safe. Because the mast crop failed in many places, some sow bears may have denned early. Many have no doubt been routed by the high water and are even now looking for new denning sites.
It's not pleasant to think of but it is the stark reality. It surely interrupted the deer rut for a few days and that may mean fewer fawns next spring. But as soon as the rain and wind stopped the deer's hormones kicked up again and those archers who got out at the end of the week, found they could still-hunt quietly and that hungry, rutting deer were on the move.
Pheasant, grouse, squirrel hunting will all be back to normal this week. As I feared, I did not go fall turkey hunting last week because of the weather. I love to hunt in a soft rain or a drizzle but I've never had enough luck in a downpour to brave it. High wind puts every species of game off its feed, so to speak. Game birds find it difficult to rise from the cornfield into the air or to make headway when they do get up. Deer find their chief defensive sense - smell - undependable when the wind is roaring. Scent seems to dissipate quickly when wind is whipping and deer cannot really detect their enemies by scenting them so they choose to hole up and stay there until the storm is over.
I remember deer season in 1983. It wasn't raining but the cold front had arrived with a 45 mph gale so on opening morning branches were falling all over the woods, some with great crashes. I watched a huge tree off in the woods where I was fall to the earth with a terrible shudder and noise and I along with others in my hunting party were plenty skittish. About the time I decided to play it safe and head out of the woods, I spotted movement in the distance. It turned out to be a buck, which I bagged. Then, since I was 3 miles from my truck, I spent the rest of that dangerous day dodging flying branches while I dragged that buck out of the woods.
I've also had more time than usual to spend imagining myself on a brown bear hunt in Alaska or an elk hunt in Montana. Perhaps a safari in Africa. Like most hunters, I've often hoped to be able to go on one of these exciting hunts but I've had to settle for going vicariously, that is, by reading the stories of others who were able to accomplish it. That's the closest I've ever come to any of those hunts.
Harold Kaplan of Altoona went on an African safari this past September. He harvested what is considered by many to be the most dangerous African game animal - a Cape Buffalo. This animal is not called "Black Death" for no reason. They are known to be notoriously short tempered.
Kaplan harvested his 1,500 pound Buff on Sept. 13 in Zimbabwe with a 450-400 3-inch Nitro Express Double Rifle. This will be quite a conversation piece in Kaplan's trophy room.

I had a feeling, though, that it was one of those movies that he would find unexpectedly good, and it did NOT disappoint.
I thought about when we were dating (albeit short- we were engaged within 3 months) he would have acted excited to see anything I wanted to, and I would have been the same. But after almost 10 years of marriage, we're a little bit more obvious with our real intentions and opinions on most matters.
There were several moments where we laughed out loud and, since we were seeing it in 3D, we'd look at each other in the big funky glasses and laugh some more.
Today he took the baby and wore her in the mei tai outside while I worked in the house on some things. And right now he's wearing her downstairs while she naps.
He does it because he knows I like when she's held close, and she likes it, too. And most of all, he loves wearing her.
I love that we share this passion.
Things aren't always perfect. Often, far from perfect. But still so many things are good. So many things add up, and speak louder than words and actions and...
I'm not really sure how to end this post. I wasn't even going to write it, but for me, it needed to be written.
No matter where you are at, whatever you're in, imagine and hope that it might end up being unexpectedly good.
I hope it doesn't disappoint.

text: Softball Falls Twice on Senior Day April 26, 2014 Despite a pair of home runs by junior Demi Meza, Stetson dropped an Atlantic Sun Conference doubleheader to visiting Jacksonville, falling 3-1 and 6-4 Saturday afternoon at Patricia Wilson Field. The losses spoiled Senior Day for the Hatters (32-11, 15-7 A-Sun), who honored Sarah Read, Chrissy Morello, and Meredith Owen prior to the first game. Jacksonville (20-28, 8-15 A-Sun) led 1-0 in game one when Meza hit her first home run of the day, a solo shot to straight away center field to knot the score at one. The Dolphins broke the tie with two runs in the sixth inning, and starting pitcher Victoria Brown (10-10) made the lead hold up. She allowed just one run and five hits while striking out seven. Owen (20-6) took the loss for Stetson, allowing two earned runs in seven innings. She and Kayla Drury each recorded two hits to lead the offense. In game two, it was the Stetson's turn to take a 1-0 lead as the Hatters scored an unearned run in the bottom of the first inning. The Dolphins responded quickly, however, scoring one in the second and five in the third to break the game open. The Hatters tried to mount rally, as Owen hit her team-leading 13th home run in the bottom of the third to cut the lead to 6-2. Meza then hit a two-run home run in the fourth inning, her second on the day, to pull Stetson to within a pair. The Hatters would pull no closer however, as Jessi Walker (4-5) pitched the final four innings for JU to earn the win. Read (10-3) took the loss for Stetson, while Morello had two hits to lead the offense in game two. The Hatters left 10 runners on base. The teams will play the series finale at 1 p.m. Sunday. Notes: Stetson must win three of its final four games to earn a first-round bye in the A-Sun tournament ... The Hatters have now hit 41 home runs on the season, four shy of the school record ... Brittany Hawn had eight assists and extended her errorless streak to 23 games.Print Friendly Version More Headlines

TRUCKEE, Calif. - I cringe every time I see someone walking their dog down the street without a leash. No matter how well trained man's best friend is, you can't trust them - a dog's still a dog and will follow its instincts.Over the years I've owned four Hungarian Vizslas. Two males in succession (Ollie and Jake) and then a male and a female from the same litter (Buddy and Gracie).I was a teenager the first time I saw a Vizsla. I was so taken by their striking appearance when it came time for me to get my own dog I sought out a breeder. They have short golden-rust fur with a classic pointer frame - lean with strong muscular features - and are all one color, even their nose and toe nails.Vizslas were bred to hunt but make wonderful pets for active families. They are extremely intelligent, very sensitive, loving and a bit needy which just adds to their charm. As like most hunting dogs, Vizslas are charged full of energy and need regular exercise, so they're a great breed for outdoor enthusiasts.Seeing as to how energetic Vizslas are, I had each of my dogs professionally trained to keep them under better control. I've always taken pride in how well my dogs obeyed my commands and followed my lead. They would heel next to me even off the leash; sit, stay and not come until I called them a hundred or more yards away; and no matter how far out of sight my dogs were all I had to do was give a loud whistle and they would appear out of nowhere racing back to me. To put my dogs in their kennel all I had to do was open the gate and they'd walk right in without me saying a thing, and when my dogs were in the house they stayed in the corner on their bed without getting up unless I said it was okay.Prior to moving to Truckee, I lived in Ventura County and would go for runs with my dogs through a junior college that was about a quarter mile from my house. I kept my dogs on a leash as we worked our way along the streets to the college. When we got to the college I would let them run free until we got back to the streets again. After all, Vizslas are hunting dogs and being a nice owner it felt good to let them use their instincts by chasing cotton tails into bushes and flushing flocks of black birds feeding on the quads.After my dogs scared off all the birds and rabbits they could find I'd guide us through the athletic fields and put them on their leash before we got back to the street in order to return home.Wanting him to still enjoy his freedom, on one occasion with Jake I left him off his leash as we got to the street and had him heel next to me. Knowing dogs can be distracted and runoff, I looked around to see if there was anything he might run to and saw some people walking on the other side of the street. Jake caught my eye and before I could reach down to put on his leash he ran off after them as a minivan was barreling down the hill. I yelled for Jake but it all happened too quickly. Jake got hit and killed right before my eyes. The van never even stopped.If you love your dogs and want to be nice to them, please keep them on a leash when walking down the street. You don't want to do what I did to Jake. A dog's still a dog and will follow its instincts no matter how well you have them trained.Nick De Fiori is a Truckee resident.

Developers of DTC Genetic Testing Are...
Wall Street Decline Takes Its Toll...
During a year marked by global financial recessions and uncertainty, one can look to the biotech industry—the bioprocessing sector in particular—as a bright spot, with manufacturers of bioreactor and fermentor systems reporting continued strong growth.
Despite shifting fortunes between some subsectors of the market, performance has, in general, been stable or on an upswing in both the conventional stainless steel and glass reusable reactor markets and in the evolving single-use sector. In fact, a comfortable balance seems to have been reached in which these technologies are concurrent rather than competitive and are jointly spurring growth in the overall market.
Vendors are expanding the range of options offered and the flexibility of systems, allowing users to experiment with different combinations of bioprocessing components for R&D through pilot-scale and commercial production, mixing and matching strategies and systems to find the best solution for a particular application.
"The market continues to grow," says Ken Clapp, senior product manager, single-use bioreactors, Xcellerex (part of GE Healthcare Life Sciences), and single-use and conventional re-usable systems continue to co-exist."
Although single-use cell culture is well-established, especially in process development, with use in production scale expanding, "there are certain processes today that cannot be run in single-use, for myriad reasons." At Xcellerex, product development has been driven largely by continuing demand for the company's FlexFactory® and XDR bioreactor products.
"Demand has been strong at all sizes. However, small- and large-scale systems have exceeded the middle range," says Clapp. "Demand at the two ends of the spectrum has been driven by single-use-based process successes across the globe. The small scale is also driven by customer pipelines, burgeoning with new therapeutic candidates. The increase at the large scale is the result of all the biologics that have come up from smaller scales and/or have transitioned from conventional."
"The debate between stainless or single use has reduced as the industry has gotten on with the business of implementing flexible single-use manufacturing process flows for volumes up to 1,000 liter," says Barney Zoro, product manager at TAP Biosystems. "For larger volumes, practical issues such as bag handling still favor larger stainless facilities for large-scale production."
"We clearly see growth in the single-use bioreactor area, higher than in the classical glass and stainless steel sector," says Christel Fenge, vp fermentation technologies at Sartorius Stedim Biotech.
"On top of the strong single-use growth, in 2011 we also saw quite significant growth in the benchtop systems, mainly driven by Asia—and in particular Korea, which is strongly investing in development programs for biosimilars that use large numbers of benchtop bioreactors operated in parallel—with nice contributions also from Europe and the U.S."
The company hopes to further boost benchtop systems sales through the recent introduction of its new generation of Biostat B process development bioreactors. The system can operate both traditional glass and single-use vessels equipped with optical pH and DO probes to minimize contamination risk associated with existing single-use benchtop systems.
"We believe the industry has not yet reached a plateau of growth in single-use bioreactors," she says. The sweet spot is in the 50–200 L and up to the 1,000 L scale. Fenge describes growing investments by CMOs and pharma companies that want to create multipurpose clinical trial facilities, moving products up from the evaluation stage; they are looking for technology that will help them achieve greater efficiency in product development, to accelerate changeover times, and to skip cleaning and related qualification steps in making clinical trials material.
"Some manufacturers are starting to adopt single-use technology for commercial manufacturing, but I think it is still the early days in that area," adds Fenge.
The entire single-use market has been growing about 15–20%/year and "is primarily being used for pilot–clinical scale production," reports Mani Krishnan, director of processing systems at EMD Millipore.
"Our customers are particularly interested in integrating fermenters or bioreactors from 10 L (seed) up to 1,000 L, 5,000 L, and more," says Doru Felezeu, marketing & business development director, Pierre Guerin.
"As a supplier of both technologies (traditional stainless steel and single-use equipment), we have observed a 'pause' in single-use investments due to the weaknesses of this technology in term of security of persons and products, scalability, and operation (a lot of manual operations are required versus a stainless steel full automated system)," says Felezeu. "However, depending on the process and application, some companies still invest in such technologies." He notes a trend toward increased mixing of traditional and single-use technologies.
Erik Kakes, international sales and marketing director, Applikon Biotechnology, reports substantial growth on the production-scale side in the Far East, particularly China and India, as well as a lot of investment in R&D systems in China as companies there increase their focus on internal product development.
"In Europe, we are seeing an increase in the single-use market, mirroring the growth we previously saw in North America. China is also looking in that direction," says Kakes.
Clapp of Xcellerex notes that "with more and more customers switching to or using single-use, they are expecting options analogous to those on conventional systems: e.g., exhaust condensers, foam management, more agitation choices, etc. The need to integrate more and better process analytical technologies has a big effect on single-use innovation. This has been a clear signal of single-use acceptance."
ATMI reports particularly strong market growth in the human therapeutic protein and veterinary vaccine sectors, where there is a strong trend toward single-use technologies. Cell therapies are another important growth area, and ATMI is focusing on optimizing the microenvironment in which the cells grow, including shear force and mass transfer of oxygen, to improve reactor efficiency with an increasingly smaller footprint.
"The market values innovation for improved efficiency while also asking for a standardization of technologies," says Jeffery Craig, global director of business development and marketing at ATMI.
"Single-use technologies offer compelling value but are a long way from engineered standards such as connectivity of one technology to another, vessel design, or the interchangeability of one unit operation with another. These types of standards tend to evolve later in the industrial cycle of manufacturing technologies. Importantly, standards that involve patient safety such as leachable and extractable profiles are evolving more quickly.
"I think it's interesting that there is a debate about whether standards stifle innovation or drive industrialization," Craig says. "The industry needs to put its collective heads together to industrialize like the microelectronics sector, for example. Experience shows that standards help industries to grow, and I assure you that we can expect ongoing innovation by driving standardization."
Customers want single-use systems that are easier and more reliable to implement, and that offer the types of options and advances they've come to expect with reusable processing equipment, according to Krishnan of EMD Millipore. The key goal is to make the technology easier to use.
Whereas with conventional systems the main difficulty is cleaning, preset protocols are well-established, and users already have years of experience doing this. "With single-use you are installing the single-use component for every batch. You are introducing new variables that the operators do not have a lot of experience with," says Krishnan. They have to install the components the correct way every time, and they are looking to the supplier to make that as easy as possible.
"Despite an increasing demand for single-use bioreactors, stainless steel and glass bioreactors are still our bread and butter business," says Fenge of Sartorius Stedim Biotech. The company recently introduced its Biostat D-DCU line of configurable stainless steel bioreactors up to 200 L volume. Options range from basic batch setup configurations that support advanced gassing and feeding strategies, clean-in-place, and automatic transfer of seed to a larger bioreactor or sterile harvest into a stainless steel vessel or single-use bag.
When it came to designing its single-use bioreactors, the company sought to design them as similar to existing stainless steel or glass systems as possible in terms of factors such as bioreactor geometry (height-to-diameter ratios, impeller-to-vessel diameter ratios, and impeller design, for example). The result is the company's stirred tank single-use bioreactor, the Biostat STR (50 L to 1,000 L) and Univessel SU (2 L), which are intended to provide seamless technology transfer from benchtop bioreactors to single-use pilot-scale systems, and from single-use to existing large-scale stirred tank facilities.

No. 14 Men's Volleyball Hosts Barton and Mount Olive
MUNCIE, Ind. - The No. 14 Ball State men's volleyball team hosts Barton and Mount Olive at home this weekend to begin its nine-match home stand. The Cardinals are coming off a 3-1 win over the No. 13 Ohio State Buckeyes on Wednesday evening. The matches will be on Friday, Feb. 28 and Saturday, Mar. 1 both at 7:30 p.m. at Worthen Arena.
Scouting Ball State
The Cardinals (8-5, 4-2 MIVA) are coming off a 3-1 conference win against No. 13 Ohio State on Thursday evening in Columbus, Ohio. The win marked the first time Ball State has won at St. John Arena since the 2006 season. The Cardinals dominated the block with 17 total team blocks to the Buckeyes' eight. Junior outside attacker Shane Witmer registered a career-high 17 kills of a .406 hitting percentage (17-4-32).
Sophomore Marcin Niemczewski added 18 kills on the night to go with a career-best nine total blocks. Juniors David Ryan Vander Meer and Matt Sutherland each got under 10 digs while Vander Meer added a career-high five assists and Sutherland added eight kills.
Senior Matt Leske had 11 total blocks on the night to go with six kills. Seniors Kevin Owens and Graham McIlvaine each added three kills while McIlvaine assisted on 46 of Ball State's 55 kills.
Scouting Barton
The Bulldogs (6-9, 3-6 CC) have won three out of their last four matches, dropping a 3-2 decision to Quincy on Feb. 21. The offense is headed up by Zach McCalla with 211 kills on the season for a 3.40 kills per set average. Ladislav Lelkes has 29 solo blocks on the season for a 0.97 blocks per set average. Setter Frederico Pagliara has dished out 533 assists for a 8.60 assists per set average while libero Michael McMahon has gotten under 210 digs for a 3.39 digs per set average.
Series with Barton
Friday's match will mark the second time in history these two programs have met. Ball State took a 3-0 win at Barton last season on Jan. 26, 2013.
Scouting Mount Olive
The Trojans (7-7, 6-3 CC) are riding a three-match winning streak after picking up victories over Limeston (3-1), Erskine (3-2) and Belmont Abbey (3-0). Mount Olive is in second place in the Conference Carolinas behind Erskine.
Angel Dache heads up the offense for the Trojans with 222 kills on the season for a 4.35 kills per set average. Libero Josh Donahue has picked up a team-best 123 digs on the season for a 2.56 digs per set average.
Donahue earned Off the Block's Men's Volleyball Freshman of the Week Honorable Mention on Jan. 27 while Garrett Dimm earned the same distinction on Feb. 12.
Series with Mount Olive
Ball State and Mount Olive have met two previous times prior to Saturday's match with the Cardinals coming out victorious in both. The squads met last season at Mount Olive with Ball State picking up a 3-1 win on Jan. 25, 2013.
Historic Win
The victory over No. 13 Ohio State on Wednesday, Feb. 26 was the first time Ball State had won in St. John Arena since a 3-0 sweep of the Buckeyes back on April 7, 2006.
Shane's Career High
Junior outside attacker Shane Witmer registered a career-high 17 kills against No. 13 Ohio State on Wednesday, Feb. 26. The junior finished the night with a blistering .406 attack percentage (17-4-32).
Matt and Marcin Host the Block Party
Senior middle attacker Matt Leske and sophomore outside attacker Marcin Niemczewski teamed up quite a bit against the Buckeyes on Wednesday, Feb. 26. The two combined for 20 total blocks with both picking up solo blocks while Leske had 10 assisted blocks and Niemczewski added eight. Ball State out-blocked Ohio State 17-8 in total team blocks on the night.

INCLINE VILLAGE, Nev. - One of the current trends with which I struggle as a parent and an educator is the inclination of many adults to heap praise upon children without regard to effort or ability on the parts of the children involved. Please don't misunderstand. I am a firm believer in recognizing and appreciating hard work and improvement. I also believe in supporting children as they explore new avenues of interest, especially when they don't find immediate success.
What has always puzzled me is the apparent lack of recognition in too many adults that kids actually know when they have worked hard at something and when they have not. They are actually remarkably capable of appropriate self-assessment if they have permission to be less than perfect. "Great job!" as a response to every move a child makes can be confusing for that child and dilute her sense of real accomplishment.
I believe children learn the most when the adults in their lives recognize genuine hard work, regardless of the results. Over the years, I have consistently asked students of all ages to share with me the accomplishments of which they are most proud. Rarely do they describe things that were easy for them. Instead, they talk about working hard to improve a grade from a C to a B, or in earning a B+ from a teacher known to be a tough grader. They talk about overcoming obstacles. Frequently they are far better able to accept and acknowledge their weaknesses and needs than are their parents.
Given my aforementioned struggle, it is not surprising that I have become a huge fan of Nordic skiing and the best that it elicits from both youngsters and their parents. Last Friday I accompanied the newly formed Lake Tahoe School Nordic team to Tahoe City for the North Tahoe Pursuit races. Three weeks ago I ventured forth with our fledgling skiers on their second outing.
At the time, they were not a whole lot better than I, which is not saying much. In three weeks, they have become remarkably seasoned skiers. They have worked hard and made consistent progress. Most important, they have fallen in love with the sport and what it inspires in each of them.
Last Friday, each division, girls then boys, took off in a brightly colored horde. Six minutes or so later, the leaders came flying gracefully down the last incline and up the hill to the finish. They were working hard, pushing each other, in some cases a miraculously upright tangle of skis and poles. Parents and other students welcomed them with cheers and cowbells.
Six minutes or so after the leaders passed, the last competitors glided down the last incline and labored up the hill to the finish. They were working hard, pushing each other no less competitively than had the leaders. Parents and other students welcomed them with cheers and cowbells, celebrating their hard work and achievement. I love a sport where every child's progress is recognized and celebrated equally enthusiastically.
