Fabulous! Review by Amanda
Price Value Quality
Our son had 2 teeth by 3 and a half months and I found that cold teethers just didn't work for him (he cried when we'd put anything cold near his gums!), so this product was great! He was able to hold it himself and both the green and red portions are bumpy, so even if he didn't have it orientated correctly in his mouth, it still provided relief.

Great for my toddler! Review by CINDY
Price Value Quality
This is a great teether, and I found that it was a perfect item to give my older toddler. She saw her newborn baby brother with his pacifier and this made her curious. So I could give her own pacifier to teeth on and she left his alone. A perfect solution! (Posted on 1/3/11)Would you recommend this product to a friend? Without hesitation!
She loved it! Review by Suzy
Quality Price Value
I purchased this on the recommendation of a friend. I figured since my daughter used a pacifier she would enjoy the different texture of this. She took to it right away. It was easy for her to hold and she chewed on all sides of it. It was cute to see her try to suck on it, then realized something was different. A big hit!!

The Voice Reveals Top 12
Shakira – whose team performed Tuesday along with Blake Shelton's singers – couldn't even wave to the camera when she was introduced at the top of the show. "I couldn't sleep last night because of what I knew I had to go through today," she said. "I know my heart is going to break into 100 pieces."
Usher and Shelton looked equally anguished about having to send home one of the singers, whom American did not save. Adam Levine – whose all-female team performed Monday alongside Usher's group – was so torn that he didn't blurt out his choice until credits were rolling.
So who went home Wednesday night? Keep reading to find out ...
Blake's all-country team was up first – with Justin Blake and The Swon Brothers in the bottom two.
Although Rivers earned rave reviews the previous night, Shelton chose to save the only duo of the season, The Swon Brothers, Colton and Zach. He made his decision "for the sake of just keeping things as different and diverse as I can," he said.
On Team Shakira, Sasha Allen and pop-soul singer Kris Thomas were saved, leaving powerhouse Karina Iglesias and Garrett Gardner, 17, in the bottom two.
Shakira looked sincerely heartbroken, but ultimately chose to save Garder because, as she explained, "I think I can make you improve a lot more."
Team Usher was in the hot seat next – and America saved indie introvert Michelle Chamuel and R&B singer Vedo, leaving Usher to decide between former model Josiah Hawley and Latina pop singer Cathia. He ultimately chose Hawley.
Team Adam's four strong females closed the show, and it was revealed that America saved Judith Hill and country singer Amber Carrington, leaving folk singer Caroline Glaser and Sarah Simmons in the bottom two.
Levine had an incredibly tough time making up his mind because, he said, he loved them both. "Whatever decision I make will not be one that I support," he said, adding later, "This is killing me right now."
As the credits rolled, he finally said he would save Simmons.
The top 12 will compete with a new set of live performances beginning Monday.

Roads south from Ballyvaughan lead to a wealth of ancient and some medieval sites. A kilometre or so down the R480 and off to the west is Newtown Castle, a restored sixteenth-century tower house with walls almost four metres thick, murder holes and gun loops, now part of the grounds of the Burren College of Art. Back on the R480 and a little further south, Aillwee Cave is reckoned to be two million years old. Guided tours visit caverns and bridged chasms, allowing you to marvel at weird rock formations, numerous stalag- mites and stalactites, and the hibernation chambers of a long-extinct species of brown bear.
About 3km south of the cave, and just off the eastern side of the R480, is the Gleninsheen Wedge Tomb, the best preserved of its kind in the area. Just a kilometre south from here is the Poulnabrone dolmen, the best known of The Burren's seventy or so megalithic tombs. When excavated in 1986 the remains of some thirty people were uncovered along with several tools, utensils and items of jewellery, providing evidence that the tomb dated from around 2500 BC.
A kilometre further south is Caherconnell Stone Fort, the most substantial of The Burren's many ancient remains. Such circular homesteads, with their dry-stone walling, were built from around the fifth century onwards; this one is some 40m in diameter with nearly four-metre-thick walls.
Continuing onwards, by the junction with the R476 is another O'Brien fortress, Leamaneh Castle, which, though long abandoned, is still in reason- able shape. Its tower dates from around 1480 and the adjoining four-storey house with its segmented windows was added in 1640 by Conor O'Brien.
From here it's worth backtracking past Caherconnell and taking a detour along the first road east to CARRON, where Michael Cusack, a co-founder of the Gaelic Athletic Association, was born and is commemorated by a monument next to the old school and by a visitor centre.

TruGrip Material Stains Easily
By DPFromMN
from Minnesota
My first ever Levenger purchase was this yellow TruGrip ballpoint pen and a Bomber Jacket Circa Zip Folio.What I had hoped would be a rather unique writing instrument has turned out to be a bit of an embarrassment. You see, the dye from the leather in the folio has stained the pen. Whatever the TruGrip material is made from, it has soaked up some of the color from the folio and now it looks terrible.
Bottom Line No, I would not recommend this to a friend

Nice pen, Poor ink
By human
from Aspen, CO
This is my first levenger pen purchase, and while I am very pleased with the pen weight, feel and quality for the price, the ink it came with did not meet my expectations. I have been writing with it for a couple of days now, and the ink is continuing to skip (whole words even!) and leaves blotches at times. My only other concern is that the matted texture of the pen will get marked up. It already has an ink mark, and a grey line marked on it from 2 days of use, keeping it in the case between writing. Not sure how those happened.... Overall I'm happy with my purchase, and would recommend the pen to others, I would just hope their pen would come with better ink in it.
Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend
Great Pen - Great Value
By SummerJewel
from Ohio
First time writing a review. These pens look heavier in the photo, but are not. The weight is just right for the balance. They feel so light in your hand, and just glide. I love the Levenger ink that was in the pen as well. I gave this pen 5 stars. I collect fine pens, Visconti, Parker, DuPont, etc... and this beats them all. It's my new everyday writing pen. I find every excuse to write with it!
By yellowkini
from Texas
I got this pen in yellow and it is GREAT! It feels comfortable in my hand, both in weight and actual grip of this pen. I ordered mine with my name and it looks nice; think it makes the pen more fun! The ever-so-smooth writing is fantastic, could write for hours and my hand doesn't get tired. LOVE IT, LOVE IT, LOVE IT!!! ... you will too! (my friends sure did when I showed them this pen!)
Buy This Pen!
By Cathav
from Santa Clara, CA
This is my first review for Levenger. I've been using the pen for a few weeks now and seem to love it more every time I use it. The wider barrel and the grip are the best I've ever found. I prefer a broad point and was easily able to change with the available Levenger refills. I purchased a second pen in black - however, would prefer to have other options such as Lime Green or Purple.
Heavy but good
By Steen
from Winnipeg, Manitoba, Canada
I recently took advantage of a sale to buy a TrueGrip Ballpoint. I had to settle for black because the purple is no longer available -- I'd have preferred purple.When the pen arrived, I took it out and immediately, I didn't like it because it was the *heaviest* pen I had *ever* picked up. Right away, I decided to send it back. But then, I thought I would try it out fairly before sending it back, since it's a lot of trouble, especially from Canada. So I used it for a couple of days, and I decided I liked the way it writes.Of course, I had to replace the refill it came with, with a Parker gel refill, which you can do for any of the Levenger ballpoints -- the refill that came in it would barely write and skipped so badly, it was worthless. I have bought some of these ballpoint refills from Levenger in the past and they are just useless. But with the Parker refill, it writes perfectly.In spite of weighing a ton, I decided the pen wrote very nicely, and I've decided to keep it. If the purple ever comes back, I might think about getting that, too. I gave it a "4" overall because it is so heavy.
Merchant response: Thank you for your feedback. We do offer Easy Flow Ballpoint refills, which are different from the regular ballpoint refills that come with the pen. I do want to point out that the refill you received should not be skipping. We will look into this. In the meantime, I would love to send you a set of the Easy Flow Ballpoint refills to try.
By rainyday
from portland, or
I just love this pen. I have one in each color! It's substantial in diameter and weight - and the surface coating makes for a fabulous grip! I agree with a previous reviewer about the Parker Gel refills - but the regular Levenger ballpoint pen refills make for an excellent writing experience as well. I would and do recommend these to others (and have bought several for gifts).
Great pen, tip on ink
By nwmale
from Seattle, WA
This is a fantastic pen, as other reviewers have eloquently described. I write just to stress that you can use Parker Gel refills, which make it the perfect pen. You can use these same refills in other Levenger ballpoint pens, greatly improving the overall quality.
Awesome Pen!!
By Lawstudent
from San Antonio, Texas
This pen is awesome. I have been looking for a pen with a good grip for some time now. I own several TrueWriters but over time I grew dissatisfied with the grip because after writing for an extended period my fingers would start to hurt. I had been on the verge of spending on a new matte Cross pen when Levenger came out with this pen. The grip is absolutely fabulous! The pen has some heft to it but it fits so perfectly in my hand that I have been using it for everything. The material used for the pen feels soft to the touch but is firm. As a person who gets sweaty hands at times, I highly recommend this pen because the material provides the perfect grip. As a pen twirler I have an even firmer grip now. :) No more pen flying out of my hands.The only reason I didn't give this pen 5 stars is because I have noticed after a few weeks that the coating on the pen has started to peel in some areas. This could be because this pen gets a lot of use but I am not sure. I usually keep this pen in my moleskine cover from Levenger so I am not sure if it snagged on the leather or what. That is the only small down fall of the pen.Overall, this is an excellent pen and I have plans to purchase another one in blue or the rollerball in black. I wish the rollerball came in purple too.
Good Value
By Matt
from Staten Island, NY
I bought this pen to use in lieu of a Retro 51 Big Shot. I am happy with the purchase. The pocket clip is sturdy and has higher tension than other pens I have used. I find I use a fingernail to pull the clip out a tad when placing it in a shirt pocket. i am not concerned this pen will fall out due to a loose hold. The bead at the end of the clip is smooth and makes it easy to remove from the pocket when the pen is pulled.I took off one star for function because the twist top is smooth and not knurled or striated. I find it difficult at times to twist the pen open one handed. It opens quite easily if I use two hands, one to twist the top and one to hold the base. I would prefer a knurled top similar to the Retro 51 style for ease of one hand opening. The feel of the pen is excellent. The barrel material has some give but is firm beneath, while offering purchase yet remaining smooth. The dichotomy is delicious. The pen has a nice weight and balance. It is heavier than the Retro 51 Big Shot.The ink was a bit spotty at first. My first impressions are that the ink seems temperature sensitive. On cool/cold days the ink seemed to skip and flowed fine once the pen was warm/room temperature again. I bought several refills with it and I will evaluate the ink over time. As to the appearance and flow of the ink when things are working properly, I like it. A nice smooth flow with good response to varied pressure.A nice feature is that I can use the same ink in a Retro 51, they are size compatible. This is my first time trying out the Levenger ink and I still have some Schmidt 9000 inks that I was using in my Big Shot which will also work with this model. I am overall pleased with the TruGrip Ballpoint by Levenger. It is a fine pen at an excellent price.In my accompanying image I used a 3x5 card as a backdrop and a Retro 51 Big Shot as an additional reference for size.

Charles Lane's screed "Tricare the untouchable," which was published in The Washington Post on March 26 and was printed April 3 in The Post and Courier, contains so many misrepresentations, it's hard to know where to start.
He says the courts rejected military plaintiffs' claims that they had been promised lifetime health care.
In fact, the courts acknowledged the promises, but said Congress has authority to change the rules.
He complains that costs for beneficiaries over 65 are higher than those of younger ones, as if it were shocking that older people require more health care. And he neglects to mention that Medicare (which military retirees must purchase like any other American) covers 80 percent of their costs.
Most offensively, he ignores that Congress has, in fact, raised military beneficiaries' costs substantially — especially for pharmaceuticals — to the point where they now pay more for retail medications than many civilian plans require.
New requirements for annual fee increases and mail-order refills for maintenance medications will reap further significant savings for the Pentagon in coming years.
He cites exploding cost growth since 2001, but the spike occurred more than 10 years ago, and growth rates have been declining ever since. Growth in 2012 was a fraction of one percent, and it will decline in 2013 with the new changes.
In rejecting proposals to civilianize overall military health fees, Congress has recognized what Lane and other critics so blithely ignore.
If we expect to keep attracting top-quality people to endure the extraordinary demands and sacrifices inherent in a multi-decade military career, we must offer a benefit package commensurate with that extraordinary sacrifice.

SOUTH LAKE TAHOE, Calif. - In the final two minutes of Tuesday's game, Brandon Cramer ripped the ball from Fallon and sprinted coast-to-coast.
"He just blew through everybody," South Tahoe coach Chris Proctor said. "He had two guys in front of him. My recollection was at about half court it just seemed he was going to take it and finish it."
The South Tahoe crowd started chanting "it's all over," and it was. Cramer's layup extended South Tahoe's lead to 61-49 with two minutes remaining.
South Tahoe used veteran experience in the fourth quarter to silence Fallon's third-quarter surge, and cement a 66-54 quarterfinal win Tuesday at South Tahoe High School. The win advances South Tahoe to semifinals, and ends a young Fallon team's playoff run.
"We played some good basketball, but some of our young guys made mistakes at the end and that's a veteran team. They don't make mistakes at the end," Fallon coach Chip Rutledge said. "That's the beauty of a veteran team. Those guys stepped up at the end and made no mistakes. They're a heck of a team."
It was also a heck of a game.
The Vikings and Greenwave were neck-in-neck through the first half.
The boys swapped the lead six times in the first quarter. Fallon's Niraj Morar and Richmond Laranang both drained 3's, but South Tahoe's Cramer hit one back. He ended the quarter with a steal and 3 of his own to give the Vikings a 16-13 lead.
The Vikings could have widened that lead in the second quarter when Fallon stumbled into turnover trouble. Kris DiGrande grabbed four steals and Tyler Sharp forced back-to-back turnovers in the period, but the Vikings bailed Fallon out with fouls.
The Vikings totaled 12 fouls in the first half, which capped their lead to 29-27.
A two-point game, however, wasn't too worrisome for the Vikings, who are usually a second half team.
"Our goal is to really step up the press in the first few minutes of the second half and see if we can get a momentum swing," Proctor said.
On Tuesday, though, it didn't work. Maybe it was Fallon's youthful stamina or maybe it was the elimination at stake, but the Greenwave was about to play its strongest half.
Fallon went on an unanswered nine-point tear to open the first half. LaDamien Crawely and Beau Marshall pushed Fallon to a 36-29 lead in what are usually South Tahoe's strongest minutes.
"They're a young team, but they had a great plan. They really brought a lot of pressure on us in the half court, and we haven't seen a lot of that," Proctor said. "They really stepped up and ran that kind of three-quarter, half court press and put us off our game. Just a little wrinkle like that can throw a team off."
The Vikings were definitely off as they slipped seven points behind in the third, pushing the time barrier of a probable comeback.
But the home crowd hadn't given up, and neither had Cramer.
The senior started working South Tahoe back into the game. Cramer and Kyante Wilson put up six unanswered points of their own.
"To me, that's why we play so hard to get a home game. So that things like that fall your way," Proctor said. "Being down seven, away, in Fallon ... I don't know what the result of that game is."
Tyler Sharp drove inside to make it 37-37, and the Vikings had gained that swing in momentum.
"I just had a different mindset coming into the game today. It's my last home game, and so I was just going to take it to the hole and try to get my shot," Sharp said.
Once the veteran Vikings regained momentum they knew how to build off it.
Cramer hit 12 points in those last eight minutes and John Cefalu added six. The two seniors combined for 18 of South Tahoe's 22 fourth-quarter points.
"All of a sudden we got a couple great transition turnovers, took it the other way and I felt like we really kind of broke their spirit there for maybe the last four minutes," Proctor said.
Cramer delivered the final blow with the steal he drove in for a 12-point lead.
"We just turned it around. We were flustered in the beginning, but we just found it within ourselves to turn it around," Cramer said. "We knew this was it and we didn't want to go out like this. We knew what was at stake."
Cramer led the Vikings with 24 points and a nine-of-12 performance from 2-point range. Tyler Sharp was next with 11 points, and Hayden Bronken contributed 7 boards.
"Brandon carried a big load for us for three years in some ways, and he's really taken the burden well and you saw it tonight," Proctor said.
UP NEXT: South Tahoe advances to semifinals against Elko (22-3, 8-0) on Friday at Wooster High School. The last time these two teams met back in December Elko won 52-47. The winner of the semifinal game will advance to finals at 2 p.m. Saturday at Wooster High School.

MORE ABOUT CHARACTERSPosted Friday, July 8, 2011, at 3:31 PM
While not all books are character-driven, the people who populate your stories are the glue that hold it all together. If your readers don't care about what happens to your hero, what's the point in reading the book? You make your readers care by developing characters that are multi-dimensional and "feel" like real people.
It's easy to slip into the trap of writing characters that are actually caricatures. We tend to, in real life, place the people we meet into convenient boxes (figuratively speaking). Say you meet a sweet, grandmotherly type in the checkout line at the grocery store. You don't stop to think about her past, all the experiences she's had that have shaped her into the person she's become. You picture her baking cookies in her tidy kitchen and giving them to her grandchildren and the neighborhood kids. She probably has a cat. But if you dig deeper, you're likely to find things that will shock you. Remember last week, when we talked about the grandmother who had actually been one of the "Freedom Riders" during the early sixties? Unexpected details like that flesh out the characters in your stories.
When a character first appears in your book, be sure to call him/her by name, unless you're withholding that information for a specific reason. For example, you might start a scene: After wiping her flour-coated hands on a dishtowel, Mildred Stemple opened the front door and smiled at the two little boys standing there. Using your character's name right away helps solidify her in the reader's mind.
Here, the reader's impression is probably "sweet grandmotherly type." And that's okay, at first. But if Mildred is going to be around for more than just the one scene, then you'll need to give her some definite personality traits. You can give her that backstory about the Civil Rights movement if you want, or maybe you'll have her use specific phrases. (In Gone with the Wind, Scarlett's much-used phrase was "Fiddle-dee-dee.") Maybe, when Mildred opens her mouth, she swears like a truck driver. So much for that first impression!
The above language quirk was actually used for Betty White's character in the movie Lake Placid a few years ago. If you saw it, you know what I mean. No one looks sweeter than Betty White, but her character's foul mouth was used to great comic effect in the movie, because it was so unexpected.
I'll bet you know people who defy the clich�s. I'll give you an example from my own life: My husband is a truck driver, he doesn't swear (much), and he likes to listen to Danielle Steele audio books when he's on the road. (Now I wonder if I'll hear about this.)
"It took me fifteen years to discover I had no talent for writing, but I couldn't give it up because by that time I was too famous." Robert Benchley

[Show in chronological order instead]
For a long time fiction outsold nonfiction. I believe the ratio was something like 60%/40%. In that past decade or so, however, that's changed, and now those numbers have flipped with nonfiction selling more. We like to read about the lives and experiences of others. We also read for self-improvement and growth. Sometimes it's just plain voyeurism, and I'm as guilty of that as the next guy. So, to answer your question, nonfiction is more popular at this time.
As far as Kindle and the other e-readers out there, I think they'll continue to grow as a big part of book publishing, and it may well be that in a few years the e-readers will put small publishers (myself included) out of business.
That said, I have a Kindle and I love it. It fits in my purse and I have about 100 books in it, as well as the 3 magazines and several blogs I subscribe to. All that reading material is at my fingertips wherever I go. So instead of bucking the trend I try to embrace it, and am busy putting Shapato Publishing's books in e-reader format as well.

The death earlier this week of 96-year-old Levi Clayton has been ruled a homicide. The East Side resident never fully recovered from injuries suffered last November, when burglars broke into his home and beat him.
Complications from the blunt force trauma the attackers inflicted led to the death of the World War II veteran Wednesday in Buffalo Veterans Affairs Medical Center, authorities said.
"Erie County medical examiners have ruled the death as a homicide, concluding that the victim died from complications due to blunt force trauma," police spokesman Michael J. DeGeorge said in releasing the results from the autopsy conducted Friday.
Two teenagers already have been charged in the Nov. 24 burglary and robbery and now may face homicide or manslaughter charges, according to police. Investigators are still searching for at least one more individual thought to be involved in the home invasion.
"Additional charges, an upgrading, is certainly a possibility in light of the medical examiner's ruling of homicide," Chief of Detectives Dennis J. Richards said.
Clayton was beaten in his Longview Avenue home in the Delavan-Grider neighborhood, just a few blocks from Erie County Medical Center, where he spent weeks initially receiving treatment for a broken jaw and numerous other injuries.
The viciousness of the attack shocked the community and prompted a rally in front of his home to appeal for information on the identity of the attackers.
Surveillance cameras installed on the exterior of the elderly man's home captured images of the robbers going up the driveway to the house and a dark-colored minivan they might have used as a getaway vehicle.
In January, Justice Feggans, 18, a former Riverside High School basketball star, was arrested and charged with robbery and burglary. On Tuesday, Jordon McKinnon, 19, of Buffalo, was arrested and charged with the same felony counts.
A respected member of the community, Clayton served as a World War II infantry soldier in the European Theater and, when he returned from the war, found work in the auto industry, from which he eventually retired. He was also active for years as a deacon at Buffalo's Friendship Baptist Church.
Neighbors on Longview Avenue on Friday afternoon said they were glad about the prospect that Clayton's attackers could face more serious charges.
"Being 96 years old and taking the beating like that, I really hope that they throw the book at them," said Wanda Anderson. "There's more of them to catch, and I am hoping the police get them."
Anderson, who is a friend of Clayton's relatives, said she was told that medically there was not much that could have been done for him. She said Ela Goree, Clayton's niece, told her, "They could only keep him comfortable and he would not be around as long as they hoped for."
Anderson said she noticed the dark-colored minivan pulled up by Clayton's house in the early evening of Nov. 24 and said she thought nothing of it.
Another neighbor said he also observed the van and wishes now that he had called police.
"I saw them pull up, and I wished that I called the police," he said asking not be identified. "I don't think Mr. Clayton deserved to spend his last days like that. They should have been lived in peace. Who would want to go out like that?"

LEWISTOWN - Several local girls from St. John's Lutheran Church, Lewistown, will leave July 22, and travel to Victory Valley Camp in Zionsville, to spend a week making friends, participating in fun activities, spending time learning about the Bible and much more.
The 12 girls, in grades 3 through11, will embark on this adventure with hundreds of other girls who participate in the Explorer Girls' groups all across the country.
EG Ministries Inc., was founded in 1982 as a Christ-centered, Bible-teaching ministry.
"Our purpose is to present the Lord Jesus Christ as Savior and Lord of everyday living to girls preschool through high school," according to the founders.
The Explorer Girl program is a church-based club that meets weekly, providing young girls with the opportunity to come together for a time of fun and fellowship. At the weekly meetings, the girls get a chance to interact with each other through various activities, and they are given the opportunity to learn and grow in the Bible.
Explorer Girl camp is an extension of this program. Explorer Girl camp started in 1996 at Mount Gilead Camp and Conference center in the Pocono Mountains of Pennsylvania. "I had always had a wonderful experience at camp as I was growing up and I wanted the girls to be able to have the same experience. The camping ministry is the highlight of my year. I look forward to camp every year and can't wait to see what the girls will learn. Just to see one girl with her wide-eyed enthusiasm tackle an activity that she never would have the opportunity to do, is the greatest joy to my heart," said Camp Director J.K. Williams, who is also one of the founders of EG Ministries Inc.
The camp moved to Victory Valley in 2009, opening up a vast variety of new and exciting things for the young girls. At Victory Valley, the girls stay in large cabins in the wooded location, disconnected from the outside world. Cellphones and electronic devices are prohibited, and the girls spend a week "roughing it."
However, the girls seem to enjoy the time away. Often times the girls attending camp come from big cities, so staying in a secluded area, away from the hustle and bustle they are accustomed to, is refreshing and exciting.
Explorer Girls camp brings girls together from all different areas of the U.S., and helps them to develop skills that they may never be encouraged to use in any other environment.
"There is spiritual growth as they hear about God through the study of lessons from the Bible. They are challenged to learn social skills as they interact in their cabin groups and in activities. Mentally and emotionally they are also growing through the lessons they learn in the various events of the day. Physically they are running all day long and involved in swimming, archery, rock wall climbing, hiking, crafts, horsemanship, roller skating, sports and many other fun activities. Camp is an experience like no other. It speaks to every facet of a girl's life and therefore combines learning and fun in a variety of forms," Williams said.
This year, Kristen Doverspike, Kelsey Barth, Kate Hugendubler, Maria Fowler, Malarie Yoder, Jade Bottorf, Amaya Homan, Delilah Wileman, Alicia Yoder, Heyley Hicks-Homan, Kaitlyn Treaster and Layla Shimp will attend camp, representing St. John's church. For many of the girls, it is their first time at camp, and they are more than thrilled to be going. Not one seems to have reservations about being away from home.
"I'm really excited to go. I think I decided to go to kind of get away from the real world for a while, with no TV or cellphones or anything like that, to meet new people, and to strengthen my relationship with God," said Barth, 17, of Lewistown, a first-time camper.
Each year the camp has a theme, with special focus on something related to the Bible. Everything camp related revolves around this theme throughout the week, from cabin names to evening activities. The theme is kept secret until camp brochures are released in early spring, and the meaning behind the theme is not revealed until the girls arrive the first day of camp in July, adding to the anticipation and excitement.
This year's theme is "Sunrise to Sunset." The girls of St. John's are all very intrigued by the theme, and can't wait to arrive at camp to see what fun is in store for them this summer.
Donations for camp expenses are always welcome.
"Explorer Girls' camping ministry is just that-a ministry. The funding for this week long camp comes from a small amount of money that we charge the girls and from people who want to see girls come to camp. We are always lacking in the funds that will cover all of the expense of camp," Williams said.
Contributions to the ministry may be given to EG Ministries Inc. at 311 E. Providence Road, Aldan PA, 19018. EG Ministries Inc. is a 501(c)3 non-profit charitable organization and all gifts will be receipted.
"We are grateful for any gift that can be given to help provide a week of camp for a girl," Williams said.

Belington Council discussed the concerns of a local couple this week regarding a proposed Verizon cell tower 275 feet from their home.
Richard and Nancy Snider told council they oppose the tower's construction, which is sought by their neighbor Mark Riggleman.
"Our neighbors have requested permission to erect a cell tower 275 feet from our home," Nancy Snider said. "We are concerned about the safety, like what would happen if it falls in a storm. We are also concerned about what this will do to our property value."
Snider said Riggleman has a large amount of property, but chose to put the tower as far away from his own house as possible.
"Where does this stop?" asked Snider. "We will be looking right out our front door at the tower. This would only be 75 feet from our property line."
Building permit inspector Don Harris said Riggleman re-applied for a building permit to erect the tower on March 13, because the prior permit had expired. Harris said the permit request is for a 190-foot tower with 12 panel antennas. He said there would also be an 11-foot equipment building with the tower.
"The Riggleman property is a 'B' Zone and I checked with the regulations," Harris said. "On page 13, section 12, it states that construction heights are not to exceed 80 feet. This structure is 190 feet, so it must be denied. The petitioners may ask to have the decision sent to the board of zoning appeals."
Harris also said the regulations state that towers and antennas shall not invade the adjoining property.
Council members voted unanimously to deny the building permit for Riggleman.
In other business, city of Belington Council members took the following actions:
Christopher Dodds, representing the Belington Library, addressed council asking for annual support for the library.
"You have been good to us," Dodds said. "Without support the ill effects will fall on the children. Most of the county has computers, but at home, lots of kids do not have computers and they rely on our library. The library is open to them, and without the support, they would have nowhere to go. Thanks again for your past support."
The next Belington City Council meeting will be 7:30 p.m. April 4 at City Hall.

The CW is taking on the tale of Mary, Queen of Scots for this new series. The story starts out with Mary heading over to France so that she can marry the French King's son, Prince Francis. But, the course of true love never did run smooth... not that this is the course of true love necessarily. This is a marriage of politics and power and religion and CW goodness. We don't know exactly how close this series will stick to the truth of history, but those of you who want to get themselves a decent footing on the series may want to check out some history textbooks.

Report claims Google I/O will reveal just an updated 32GB Google Nexus 4 with LTE support
0. phoneArena 20 Apr 2013, 00:53 posted on
Forget about a Motorola X phone or a Google Nexus 5 being introduced next month at the next Google I/O developer's conference; according to a new report,m the only phone related news coming to the show is an updated Google Nexus 4 with 32GB of native storage and support for 4G LTE and CDMA bands...
This is a discussion for a news. To read the whole news, click here

Nice, Sprint finally gets it, but hopefully the specs get some updates...
33. Note2waitingonNote3 (banned) (Posts: 87; Member since: 19 Mar 2013)
The ONLY THING that matters this year will be the Galaxy Note 3. The article started with specs that will be the Galaxy Note 3 come September. The Exynos 5 Octa processor clocked at 2.3ghz, 16meg camera, 3.0 front facing camera, 3gb of ram, 4200mAh battery, and android 5.0 Kie Lime Pie straight out of the box. Nothing will ever compare to the Galaxy Note 3 NOT the Motorola Xphone, Nexus 5, Lg Optimus G2, or the silly iphone 5s/6. From September to July 2014 the Galaxy Note 3 will dominate period.

Lol. It's android to the world for me, but I'll prefer a nexus device over the high end galaxy series just because of the prices.
61. HäckeMáte (Posts: 168; Member since: 28 Feb 2012)
This is just NOW getting LTE and 32GB???
I really wish I could switch to Android but there is nothing out there worth getting.
70. moronman66 (Posts: 162; Member since: 09 Jan 2012)
There are plenty of phones out there worth getting, this one in particular has a very limited selection because they want to keep price down as much as possible, if you want an LTE Android phone with up to 128 GB of storage, get a 64 GB Galaxy S4 (Or even Galaxy S3 if you can find it), and get a 64 GB MicroSD card, if you were to need that much storage.
85. HäckeMáte (Posts: 168; Member since: 28 Feb 2012)
cheap build quality plastic... ew no thanks.
38. qadeerhussain (Posts: 1; Member since: 14 Apr 2013)
Oh realy....... Note III will dominate the world from Sep, 13 to Jul, 14? It will be a cheap plastic product with alot of gimmicks. To me, Optimus G II willbe the next big thing. It maynot sell like GS IV, But it will make any other smartphone on planet look outdated.
44. fanboy1974 (Posts: 1345; Member since: 12 Nov 2011)
I'm waiting for the Note 3 myself; cheap plastic and all. Screw what people say. I want a removable battery and sd card support.
46. Droid_X_Doug (Posts: 5993; Member since: 22 Dec 2010)
The whining about cheap plastic is just so much... whining.
When you don't offer a removable battery or micro SD expandable memory or an octacore Exynos processor, you are reduced to whining.
The Note III is going to be the state-of-the art from Sept/Oct 2013 to around May 2014. Even after May, it won't be obsolete, just a bit slower than the GS V.
And everyone else will still be... whining about cheap plastic.

98. synthetic_llama (Posts: 26; Member since: 06 Jan 2013)
Lol your comment reminds me of the comparison of COD black ops vs battlefield 3. Though its not exactly true, cause the galaxy premium suite is basically the only thing that adds worth to the note series. split screen hands down.
43. darkkjedii (Posts: 21349; Member since: 05 Feb 2011)
So what you're saying is.......everyone on earth should get a note 3?
45. fanboy1974 (Posts: 1345; Member since: 12 Nov 2011)
No. What he is saying is that Note 3 will be phone of the year.
47. jellmoo (Posts: 1595; Member since: 31 Oct 2011)
Phone of the year? Unlikely. Tablet of the year? Possibly.
60. darkkjedii (Posts: 21349; Member since: 05 Feb 2011)
There's still gonna be so many different phones for different people though. I'm not so sure he meant phone of the year, but it probably will be.
84. rgxVOiD (Posts: 440; Member since: 30 Aug 2012)
The ugliest phone of the year that is
58. Berzerk000 (Posts: 4275; Member since: 26 Jun 2011)
That is entirely false. Believe it or not, some people don't want phablets (including me), and so the Motorola X, Nexus 5, Optimus G2, HTC One, and Galaxy S4 are all much better alternatives than the Note series. I don't care what "special" Note exclusive features it has, I don't care how crazy the specs are, and I don't care how small the bezel is; any phone with a screen size larger than 5.5" with any bezel at all is just too damn big for a consumer with average sized hands. Some people may learn to tolerate it despite its size, but I don't want to be one of those people.
With that logic; the Galaxy Note 3 will NOT dominate. It will have a very small portion of the market like it always has, and that's that.

Ok you people need to STOP with the plastic bulls**t. the f**kING PHONE IS NOT PLASTIC, IT IS POLY-CARBONATE!!!!! BIG DIFFERENCE!!!!! If you're so worried about the feel of this so called plastic then get a clue!!!! Get off your brain dead ideologies and check the facts before you run your face! I see lots and lots of bulls**t breath whining about the phones being plastic oh and yeah the gimmicks too..please!!!!! You ass clowns are just jealous cause ur phone is a piece of s**t and doesn't compare to Samsung the best smart phone maker period....even though I have been partial to NOKIA phones for some reason but damn there aren't any Android versions that I'm aware of lol. Jealousy gets you nowhere but a good old fashion ass whopping!!

To ad to berzerk coment and dumb it down teerex your an idiot. Polycarb is plastic. Although great plastic. Just as copper aluminum gold silver are all metal. I have a note 2 and love it. Its my favorite phone but I do hate that its made of plastic.

When you speak in absolutes like this, you sound like you must be about.... 12.
Samsung is currently the best, until someone else makes a better device, which can happen at any time. Stop your religious-like reverence of a company. Any company. It's stupid, childish and you have no idea what any company has in their device pipeline other than what is said.
I own a Samsung, a Nexus, a Motorola and an HTC device. I also use ALL brands of phones for a living, given that I sell them. No biases here, every company has their strengths.

haha i love the enthusiasm teerex42. but you gotta calm down otherwise PA will get mad at you because you hurt someones feelings lol. Dont get me wrong, i love samsung and their devices, but i would love a metal samsung android phone that way i can hit someone with it and do damage if they talk crap about android lol.
71. true1984 (Posts: 823; Member since: 23 May 2012)
4200mAh? isnt that in tablets? just how big is this phone supposed to be? i understand you want the note 3 but arent your expectations a little unrealistic?
74. MobileNico (Posts: 67; Member since: 26 Aug 2012)
And for those of us who DON'T want a phablet? Spare me your fanboyism. People have these things called preferences, which allows us to differentiate from your narrow frame of thought with regards to phones. The Note 3 will sell like hotcakes, no doubt, but not nearly as well as its one-handed coutnerpart (the S4) will. The phablet form factor still hasn't won the majority of users over, and that's not gonna change any time soon. That being said, many Android power users (not all, but many) prefer stock Android to Samsung's TouchWiz UI. So that's two things keeping it from "dominating". Lastly, the plastic body is something that many users dislike about the Galaxy S/Note series. I'm not saying it won't sell well, I'm just saying you sound retarded.
Also, can't wait for the sequel to the Nexus 7.

Very disappointing if it is the only phone they will introduce. i was waiting for the MotoX. I mean the Phone X. might as well wait for some changes.. salt please
8. KingKurogiii (Posts: 5711; Member since: 23 Oct 2011)
i'd be okay with a good tablet being the only hardware at I/O tbh.
like a new Nexus 7 or more preferably a Nexus 8.
there should be a very slightly updated Nexus 10 too.
even just as a foot note they should just be like "oh and we're aware of the lag that's been going on with the Nexus 10 so future models will now ship with the Exynos 5 Octa"
56. Berzerk000 (Posts: 4275; Member since: 26 Jun 2011)
If there's a Nexus 8 or Nexus 9 at I/O, I'm going to get my wallet ready if it has standard hardware for 2013. Ever since I got hands on time with the Xyboard 8.2 and the Galaxy Tab 8.9 a year or two ago, I've just loved tablets in that form factor, I just never dropped the money because I was waiting for successors to those tablets, which sadly never came.
64. KingKurogiii (Posts: 5711; Member since: 23 Oct 2011)
same and i'm sure Google would be real kind to our wallets should we decide to bring them in.
yeah, 8 inch tablets are defintely the best in my opinion. i actually got a Xyboard 8.2 because it was a fairly large tablet but not too large to not grab on a whim and take out with you should you want to. i could fit the thing into the back pocket of most of my pants. i really loved that tablet but alas it started to fall behind and i traded it for a Nexus 7.
55. Hemlocke (unregistered)
It appears that your wait for the Phone X will be rewarded, as you are now getting the successor before the original was ever introduced. You get the Phone Y, instead.
4. KingKurogiii (Posts: 5711; Member since: 23 Oct 2011)
keep it. my MAXX HD is unlocked and running the Pac Man ROM now.
stock 4.2.2 + MAXX Battery = massive win ;D
7. biophone (Posts: 1956; Member since: 15 Jun 2011)
Maxx HD is way more expensive off contract though. Its a nice phone though no doubt.
9. KingKurogiii (Posts: 5711; Member since: 23 Oct 2011)
that's true. even it's forum value puts it a Benjamin or two over the N4 from Google. i think that if i hadn't used an upgrade on the MAXX HD back in November and i had this choice to make now i'd probably get the Nexus 4 to tide me over until second half 2013 phones start coming out and i could use my upgrade on one of those. btw i know how to upgrade without losing my unlimited data so yeah, i do still have unlimited data. i know, i'm good. ;)
11. biophone (Posts: 1956; Member since: 15 Jun 2011)
Mind sharing cause I don't and don't want to lose my unlimited data so I'm stuck on a old phone waiting for the prices of phones to go down. (is it calling customer service and saying your going to cancel?) My friend claims to have done that and it work. I don't believe it though.
12. KingKurogiii (Posts: 5711; Member since: 23 Oct 2011)
no, actually i think it's kind of a circumstantial kind of thing because on my family plan i have 4 smartphones and one basic phone. the same plan we've had for years but anyway what you can do if you have a line with unlimited data and an upgrade along with a line with a basic phone on it is call customer support and tell them you want to transfer the upgrade to the line with the basic phone currently active on it. you purchase the phone over the phone and then when it comes to your home you just activate the phone on the line with unlimited data that you want to use it on and that just kicks the data plan off of the line that the basic phone is meant to be on. support reps are well aware of this and when i called to inquire about doing it myself the guy i spoke to knew just what i was talking about and he even prepared the phone to be activated on the line i wanted to use the MAXX HD on when i got it so the addition of a data plan on my basic phone line only lasted as long as it took him to complete the ordering process. i was really tickled that i was able to do that.
16. biophone (Posts: 1956; Member since: 15 Jun 2011)
Nice but now that you signed a new two year contract wouldn't that mean you have to pay for data on that basic phone's line. I don't have any basic phones on my line so that doesn't work for me anyway. That's sick though! You really are the king.
20. KingKurogiii (Posts: 5711; Member since: 23 Oct 2011)
nope, no smartphone, no data. that's how it works on my plan. i don't know if it would be different on other, more newer plans but that's how it works on mine. yeah, it's a shame that it's a loophole only for certain people because it's a very good loophole that i'll be using again for sure. totes bro, totes. lol but really thanks man. that's nice of you to say. c:
23. biophone (Posts: 1956; Member since: 15 Jun 2011)
I don't even use 2gbs anyway but scared if I get a lte phone it will be close. College wi-fi is my primary Internet provider so I don't rely on 3G. Enjoy the loophole I'm jelly.
27. KingKurogiii (Posts: 5711; Member since: 23 Oct 2011)
it's a possibility. i imagine your data usage would climb a bit after getting an LTE device but most users don't go beyond that 2GB limit. funny story my dad actually went to VZW recently to get another car dock for the Droid DNA i gave him recently and the store clerk of course started putting his moves on him and suggested to him that he wouldn't really need unlimited data, that he'd be better off with the cheaper tiered plans they offer now but he was like "nooo, i like my cushion" you know? i wasn't there but that's how he told it. so the store clerk asks if he can check his data usage and my dad says sure so he pulls it up and 2 of our lines had over 40GB of usage. needless to say the store clerk didn't offer my dad any more of the tiered plans and instead advised using Wi-Fi more in the future but what i think all that data usage came from was that my mom and i had been using the mobile hotspot feature on our phones (a Razr M and my MAXX HD both of which were rooted with the entitlement check turned off for the free, unadulterated use of the hotspot function) for the primary source of internetz in the house because our ISP was on the fritz and that lasted around a month. normally i don't think we use that much data but you know it's better to have it and not need it, that's what i always say.
67. biophone (Posts: 1956; Member since: 15 Jun 2011)
That's how I feel as well. I don't use more then 2 gb but I like the cushion

Yup, just a teaspoon. Hope I will feel better! lol xD

Honestly this is big for me. I actually want a CDMA nexus 4 for vzw. I could buy it for 300 and keep my unlimited data and get on the LTE network. I don't really care for a better processor, more ram, or a better cam. A even bigger battery would be huge though.

Green Day closed this year's Bilbao BBK festival in Bilbao, Spain, on Saturday night (July 13), with a set packed with hits and novelty set pieces.
The US rock trio played The Ramones' 'Blitzkrieg Bop' and the theme from The Good, The Bad And The Ugly before taking to the stage and playing '99 Revolutions', 'Know Your Enemy' and 'Stay The Night', all taken from the band's run of three 2012 albums.
After 'Wake Me Up When September Ends', singer Billie Joe Armstrong introduced the older 'Burnout' by asking, "How many old green day fans are out there tonight? You guys are really old! This is off a record called 'Dookie'…"
Later, the band performed a number of set pieces familiar to anyone who has seen their recent stadium shows. They performed a short, seemingly impromptu, cover of ACDC's 'Highway To Hell', they fired toilet paper into the crowd from a motorised spooling device and fired T-shirts from a gun before leading the crowd in a chant of "Olé, olé, olé, olé!"
During 'Longview', Armstrong's son Jakob was brought on stage to play the guitar, and the band invited a member of the audience on stage to sing the remainder of the song. Afterwards, Armstrong declared it "the greatest thing that's ever happened on a stage in Bilbao".
The band later played a medley including 'Shout', 'Always Look on the Bright Side of Life', 'Break on Through (To The Other Side)' and '(I Can't Get No) Satisfaction', while the players donned wigs, comedy-sized glasses and colourful bras. The show concluded with 'Good Riddance (Time of Your Life)'

I was gone most of the day here and there- took Noah to the library, yarn shop (new needles!), and the old world market (cheese! Manchego & Parrano) and then off to sit with a friend while she got a new tattoo.
I wasn't gone that long. But in Ivy-time, it was forever. And I found out she had hugged a photo of me and sobbed. I am not even kidding. I wish I was kidding.
My heart, as I write this, is not breaking in two. My heart, as I am writing this, feels like it's time for a little space.
I have no idea how my heart will feel next weekend. We will see.
Because, just look at that face.

It is like Buffalo has a curse, a curse so strong that it has a hold of both professional and collegiate football teams.
The year was 1999 when the Buffalo Bills last made the playoffs. Since then, four different head coaches and nine different starting quarterbacks have walked through the doors.
Buffalo deserves better than mediocrity, but what coach would want to come to a franchise in such despair? With questions like where will the Bills even play after 94-year-old owner Ralph Wilson passes away looming, and not having a franchise quarterback driving away most coaches, it causes the Bills to settle for below-average coaching. Maybe they are thinking that if they throw enough darts at the board, one will have to stick.
The year was 1999 when the University at Buffalo was admitted to the Mid-American Conference, and they too struggle to gain respect. In 13 seasons since joining the MAC, the Bulls have won 37 games and lost 125, only having one winning season. That one winning season was with Turner Gill in 2008, when he led UB to a MAC championship. Other than that, the Bulls have been one of the worst teams in the MAC and have not been able to find traction or even do much aside from that one winning season.
The No. 1 thing in sports is coaching. Having a coach that can motivate and help the players become great is the key. Look at Bill Belichick, the coach of the New England Patriots, and how he takes players that are not that great on one team but turns them into starters on his team. When you look at the talent of the Bills roster, one would expect them to be pretty good but that's just the opposite, so the verdict must be a lack of coaching. If you took a Belichick and gave him the Bills roster, I bet that they would be Super Bowl contenders.
The UB Bulls also have talent, starting with star running back Branden Oliver, who can easily run for 200 yards every game, and standout receiver Alex Neutz, who is 11th in the country with nine touchdown receptions. But like the Bills, they are still not winning games. Look at the University of Ohio, who hired former Nebraska coach Frank Solich in 2004 and has been rebuilding ever since. In their first game this year, they beat Penn State and went on to be ranked 24th in the country with an 8-0 record before losing two weeks ago.
The Buffalo Bills and UB Bulls are like a semi-truck that is trying to make it over a slippery hill but forgot the tire chains (in their case a great coach), and without those chains they are stuck spinning their wheels.

Earlier this week, NBC Tonight Show host Jay Leno and Late Night host Jimmy Fallon engaged in a charming little skit – a duet of "Tonight" from West Side Story, with novelty lyrics that reflected the growing media speculation (bordering on certainty) that Leno would soon be forced to give his spot to Fallon.
Tonight, Tonight, why do they say we fight?
I like you, you like me, we're okay!
Tonight, Tonight, who cares who hosts Tonight?
People just watch online the next day
The unstated irony of this little song is that, at least in West Side Story, one of those singers ends up dead. Now we know which one.
Well, actually, Leno is very much alive, but – after a few nights that saw his ratings rise, partly due to his irritated jabs at NBC – the Tonight throne will now be inherited by Fallon, 38.
Reports have speculated this is the fallout of ABC's decision to position 45-year-old Jimmy Kimmel as a sort of 11:30 p.m. youth wedge between Leno and The Late Show's David Letterman (on CBS).
Kimmel doesn't strike me as having an especially youthful temperament, but up against Leno, 62, and Letterman, 65, he's like Taylor Lautner vs. Sean Connery vs. Clint Eastwood.
Of course, you may have other rugged action stars you prefer.
This is arguably part of a larger generational shift that can be seen playing out on The View, with 83-year-old lioness Barbara Walters staring down the camera and saying she will announce her retirement when she is good and ready and not before, and possibly even in the decline of Matt Lauer's Today vs. the Spring Break party going on over at Good Morning America.
These controversies are all stirred up in the media with intense whispering campaigns, even as such money-generating formats are being diluted (as the Leno-Fallon duet acknowledges) by YouTube, Hulu and other digital platforms.
Within in a few years, you will probably be able to download Fallon into a Starbucks caramel macchiato.
By the way, our current president, who is 51, has "slow-jammed" the news with Fallon. Michelle Obama has "mom-danced" with him. It would only be expected that network executives, to quote a poet, "hear time's winged chariot hurrying near." Need to hop on.
Will a Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon play out any better than the 8-month Tonight Show with Conan O'Brien? That experiment began in 2009, you'll recall, with Leno moved into prime time with his own show. That reduced O'Brien to being a pope having to suffer an anti-pope as his opening act. It did not go well, especially when NBC decided to relocate Leno to 11:35 p.m.
Leno ultimately got back Tonight, and O'Brien – a radically different, far more original comedian – wound up on TBS. (His contract there was just extended through November 2014.)
Fallon does have an advantage over O'Brien – at least if you adhere to the adage that viewers don't want to be challenged, made nervous or stuck with any image other than Leno's comforting helmet of white hair flickering beneath their eyelids in the moments before sleep. Fallon doesn't have O'Brien's edge. Literally – he looks as if he were created from a sub-molecular blend of all the male leads on How I Met Your Mother.
O'Brien is more like a Swiss Army knife: You can't be certain there's not some hidden blade. But both, with their Saturday Night Live backgrounds, understand how to create something that comes close to a full-fledged skit, something that could air on SNL or be posted on Funny or Die. (Kimmel knows that too.)
This skill matters far more than the opening monologue – the least funny tradition in talk-show format – and Fallon's bits are brilliant, from his Downton Abbey takeoff to the bizarre "Fake Arms" skit.
And he can act. He can sing. He can interview. He smiles in a way that could convince a wolf to relinquish a sheep from its jaws. Most of it, anyway.
It's his time.

I'm just a regular Minnesota guy that grew up on the north-side of the Cities (Fridley), spent some quality time at the U of M, chill on the weekends at the family cabin near Duluth, bleed Vikings purple, and miss the North Stars. I have a short attention span; and enjoy Pink Floyd, Johnny Cash, Zac Brown, 80s hair bands, coffee, beer, scotch, and long sunset walks on the beach. (One of those isn't true.) I'm a two-time cancer survivor now (Colorectal 2002, Kidney 2014), and know that life is damn short -- so by all means we should be playing as hard and as often as we can. I think that's it.

UNIVERSITY PARK - Maggie Lucas said it was "a little shocking" how open she found herself during the first half Sunday.
What isn't shocking is how the Penn State guard responded.
Lucas set a Bryce Jordan Center scoring record and a career-high with 39 points to lead No. 10 Penn State to a surprisingly easy 97-74 rout of Georgetown.
Lucas, the Big Ten's leading scorer, had 26 points in the first half to help Penn State (7-2) jump out to a 34-point lead. The junior guard finished 11-of-21 from the field and matched a career high by hitting 7-of-13 from 3-point range.
Sugar Rodgers scored 24 points to lead Georgetown (7-3), which had won three straight.
The Hoyas led 9-8 three minutes into the game when Penn State took control.
Lucas hit an open 3-pointer to spark a 10-0 run. Following Lucas' shot, PSU then converted steals into layups on Georgetown's next three possessions to grab an eight-point lead. A free throw from Lucas made it 18-9 with 14:09 left.
Jasmine Jackson ended Georgetown's scoring drought with a 3-pointer. Lucas followed with three more 3-pointers of her own, all on open looks, over the next three minutes to push Penn State's lead to 29-12 with 10:03 left in the first half.
Coming into the game, Penn State coach Coquese Washington thought Georgetown's zone defense would give Lucas some opportunities.
"The team did a good job of finding Maggie," Washington said. "She's such a good shooter. If she gets that wide open, she's going to make a lot of them."
Washington said the number of open looks for Lucas didn't surprise her.
"That's Georgetown's philosophy," she said. "She got to the spots that we thought would be open in the zone. We found her and she made them. Teams generally do what they do. Georgetown is a zone team. They played that way pretty much the whole game."
Penn State, the Big Ten's top scoring team, continued to push its offensive tempo. Up by 17 midway through the first half, the Lady Lions scored 22 of the next 27 points.
Bentley, who finished with 23 points, had nine during this stretch. Her three-point play gave the Lady Lions a 51-17 advantage with 2:53 left in the first half.
Penn State went into halftime with a 53-25 lead.
"I think it's the best half we've played all year," Bentley said. "We're going to try to keep that up for (Washington). We're going to try to put that first half and a second half (together) too, so we can play 40 minutes that great."
With the victory, Penn State rebounded in resounding fashion from a 67-52 loss at No. 2 Connecticut on Thursday night.
"We all knew we were about to bounce back," Bentley said. "It's all about just getting better every day. Obviously, we weren't happy with how we played a couple of days ago. We all got after it in practice the next day and we were ready to execute the game plan that (Washington) had for us today."
Georgetown cut its deficit to 21 points in the waning minutes of Sunday's game but never seriously challenged in the second half.
It was Lucas who continued to be the story. She surpassed her previous career high of 33 points, set in January in a loss to Michigan State, by making three free throws with 16:24 left. In the process, she became the first Lady Lions player to hit the 35-point mark in a game since Kelly Mazzante in March 2003.
Lucas' two free throws with 5:57 left gave her 39 points and set the BJC record. She had two chances to surpass 40 points but missed a 3-pointer and a jumper over the final five minutes.
"It feels good," Lucas said about her achievement. "But it's a team thing. Today, we were just focusing on getting a bounce back. We needed to get our rhythm going heading into the rest of these games before we go on winter break. It's all about the team right now."

Making Your Website Google Friendly

SEO is turning out to be the prime tool for internet marketing and SEO analysts are hell bent on impressing the major SE,i.e,Google.Be it in terms of backlinks,PR,listings or SERP'S (Search Engine Ranking Positions).But then not all succeed.The reason Google is not another ordinary Search Engine.Every time it crawls to cache your page or to update PR and backlinks it changes it's algorithms leaving one and all confused.So in this particular article lets discuss some basics that one has to follow to get indexed and rank well in Google.
A]Let's start with a website that is fresh,completely new and has just got it's w3c certification done.How are you going to get it indexed by Google so that it cache's your content on a regular update.There has always been countless discussions by people regarding this particular topic,yet the problem hasn't faded away.The concept isn't still clear to all.So I just felt to put in three simple steps that would help out the newbies with their websites.
1)First, make sure that your web site mentions the phrases you would reasonably expect an interested party to search for, as regular text in your HTML, not as a picture of text.
2)Submitting your site to Google is not recommended at all and considered a flaw in SEO because this way you are actually telling Google yourself that your site is "new" on the internet.Remember, Google is not just another search engine. Instead it's based on a lot more complex and "logical" algorithm.
*-The Mistake that people basically do is adding the website to Google using their Add URL page.
3)Ask the webmasters of related web pages and sites to link to your pages, and encourage your readers to link to your site. This will bring people in directly, and it will also allow search engines like Google to find you.
B]Now once you get going you would obviously want to feature in the Good Books of Google so that every time it's spiders crawls it caches your page.To get it done on a consistent basis you have got to understand the modus of search operandi of the spiders.
Google Results are based on 4 major criteria
1)Keyword density
The density of keyword affects the ranking of your page. The higher the keyword density the higher is your rank so one should always include a 30-40 word paragraph containing key-word rich content, thus increasing the keyword density.
2)Keyword prominence
The keywords you have chosen should appear in title, Meta and H tags with some occurrence in the body also. So you should not define Google without putting the word Google in the body of the definition. This means H and P tags should go hand shaking with each other.
3)Page rank and back links
The more site links to your site better is the page rank of your site and more relevant your site is. Google also takes into consideration the words [or Anchor text] that appear in your back links
 Click Here is less relevant than
 Example of Google
Some say that the Content of your site is the king, but for me its actually the crown which the webmaster wears if his site has the right content. Build the content and users will be interested just be reading it.
Once you successfully optimize for Google there would be one final frontier that you would have to conquer for making your website a grand success and that is traffic.Once that is achieved your website will start featuring in the front page of Google for the keywords you have and hence start getting more traffic and visitors.Here are some simple steps follow them and simply implement them when you do the seo for your website.
1) Insert keywords at right place on your meta tags.
2) Name your Images with Descriptive Titles and alt text.
3) Use relevant text on your website.
4) Use Ad sense to assess overall content relevance.
5) Optimize Your Title and Meta tags.
6) Use anchor text keywords in links.
7) Submit your website to search engines and directories.
8) Content updates
9) Internal Linking Structure
10) Link Building { One Way , Two Way and three way }
11) Article Posting
12) Press Releases
13) Forums Postings
14) Advertising
15) Google Site map Creation and setup
16) Blogs creation
17) Make some videos and submit them to the larger video sharing sites like Youtube.
18) Take part in social bookmark sites. These can get some good quick traffic (don't spam).
19) Pay for direct advertising on sites that are on the same subject as yours.
20) Take part in PPC advertising including Google Adwords, Yahoo Search Marketing and Microsoft adcenter and etc..
21) Make an affiliate program for your website
22) Do viral marketing by producing something with your sites link attached.
23) Include your sites link in the signature of any emails that you send to people.
24) Produce some business cards and get them distributed.
25) Mention your website to your friends and family and ask them to pass it on to others (Word of mouth advertising).
So coming to the end of the article I sum it up as my experience.I am into this game since the last year and I feel it is better to learn the game instead of being taught about it.Go ahead try the steps that I have mentioned.I doubt anybody would be unsuccessful.I wouldn't say I have mastered the field of SEO.but I have gained considerably by following these steps AND ONE LAST IMPORTANT THING-PATIENCE.Without it you will fail miserably.
Wow,big lists.Firstly,we should know whether GG likes it or not,then we can do follow those steps.
