Stocks crater, sink another 2 percent
After a blistering rally that took stocks to record highs in 2013, January could not have been more different, as the Dow Jones Industrial Average fell more than 5 percent.
In the first month of the year, traders worried the financial health of both the U.S. and smaller nations meant stocks were too dangerous to continue owning for the time being, especially after a nearly uninterrupted rise that began in early 2009.
Those jitters continued on the first trading day in February, driven by weakness in a manufacturing index from the Institute for Supply Management.
By the close of the market's session, stocks had crumbled, with the Dow dropping 326.05 points, ultimately finishing 2.1 percent lower.
The S&P 500, a broader measure of U.S. companies, ended down 2.3 percent. The worst of the three big stock averages was the Nasdaq , which fell 2.6 percent.
Investors moved into safer assets such as U.S. Treasurys. The yield on the 10-year note fell to 2.58 percent from 2.65 percent Friday.
A report Monday showed U.S. manufacturing barely expanded in January. Signs of weakness in China's manufacturing sector added to worries about developing economies.
Stocks of local interest took a beating Monday along with the rest of the stock market
- PNC Financial Services Group -- Down $1.45 a share, or 1.82 percent, to $78.343
- National Fuel Gas -- Down $1.57, or 2.08 percent, to $73.79
- General Electric -- Down 78 cents, or 3.1 percent, to $24.35
- Erie Indemnity -- Down $2.47, or 3.52 percent, to $67.70

Americans will go to the polls Tuesday to elect the nation's 43rd president. Residents from across the community were asked what moral or cultural question should be the most important one he faces in his administration.
"The new president of the United States should devote himself to a renewed faith in God. The country and its citizens deserve a president who seeks to please God by implementing his plan for our well-being. Sure, there are more than enough problems facing our nation; however, we're splintered concerning the manner by which they should be addressed and solved.
"Hunger and disease are basic problems we all face, and there is no reason for anyone in the United States to be hungry or unable to obtain treatment for their disease. Once those basic needs are met, however, the individual has the responsibility to take the initiative to provide for themselves and their families.
"The president should provide the country with uncommon ideals as well as ideas, something other than mundane political theory. Attempting to please God rather than man would hopefully produce some new direction rather than the selfish ones of politics. The president of the United States should elicit within the citizens a sense of pride and national unity, rather than division. Polls prevent a 'worldly' leader from taking a chance. Being politically expedient is terribly wrong when the alternative is doing what is right.
"As stated, the country is splintered, divided by class consciousness, greed, envy and low morals, based on its citizens' lack of self-esteem and direction. The new president needs to rise above that lack of direction, set his goal at pleasing God and in doing so, he will prove himself to be an uncommon leader for the common man."
- District Judge Samuel C. Kiser
"The new president of the United States should first devote himself to having personal integrity. This is an important strength that we need in our leaders but also in our individual citizens.
"The word integrity comes from the root word integer, which means whole or complete. It is a quality of being complete, whole and having moral soundness. An anonymous person once defined integrity as 'the value we set on ourselves. It is a fulfillment of the duty we owe ourselves. An honorable man or woman will personally commit to live up to certain self-imposed expectations. They need no outside check or control. They are honorable in their inner core.'
"What would our society be like if our president had personal integrity? Our national character would be strengthened. Our withering morals would be nourished. There would be no hypocrisy, rationalizing and justifying. There would be no blaming others for our own mistakes and errors.
"A president with a disciplined conscience understands right and wrong. He would do the right thing even in challenging and complicated circumstances. An honest person loves truth and justice. He would be honest in words and actions. There would be no need for lies or the intentional deceiving of others.
"With integrity, the president would never lead us in a way to believe something that is not true. He will not take unfair advantage in any form. He will not have many excuses. He will not have to make them because he will not have to lie to protect himself and to have others think well of him.
"We must all look carefully at our lives. When we are completely honest, we cannot be corrupted. We are true to every truth, duty and agreement.
"The most important characteristic that the president can have is integrity. A president who puts his integrity first is governed by individual responsibility. It would not be difficult for the president to be true to others if he is true to himself. Individuals who have integrity in their private lives do not need the restraint of public opinion, which can be indifferent and even wrong. It is through individual responsibility that the president would feel he is able to place himself on the right side of all public questions. To be honest, our private life does affect our public life."
- Jenifer Kunz
Associate professor of sociology
West Texas A&M University
"I believe the new president of the United States should place civil and human rights as his top moral and cultural priority.
"We are a country founded on freedom for its citizens. We are admired around the world as a nation that provides opportunities for its citizens to pursue happiness. But who makes up our nation now? It is obvious that the demographic make-up of America is changing. How are we responding to these changes? With advances in science and health care, our senior population is growing. This segment is faced with increased medical and drug costs in light of tighter or fixed incomes.
"Our Hispanic population is growing faster than any other ethnic group. This will not only add cultural changes to our country, but will certainly affect the socio-econemics of our country.
"Another group that seems to have risen as fast as the first two I have mentioned are the gay and lesbian population. Of course, gays and lesbians have been a part of our country from its beginning; however, in the last decade or two, many more are coming out in public, so the 'public' population of gays and lesbians is growing.
"I could give ether examples of how the complexion of America is changing, but the point is that our physical population is changing. Are we as a country, and will our next president of the United States, embracing our diversity and providing for the freedoms of our ever-changing society?
"Whoever we elect is going to need to have clear-cut proposals for issues such as drug reimbursement and / or subsidization for seniors, methods to outlaw racial profiling and serious punishment for acts of hate against segments of our population and equal rights and benefits in the workplace for all people of all types. Addressing the issue of equal rights, however, lies not only in the president's hands, but in the hearts of minds of each of us."
- Dr. Neal Nossaman
Amarillo optometrist and Amarillo College regent
"The president of the United States is often seen as the most powerful man in the world. In reality, however, most of his influence on policy here at home is indirect - i.e., appointing Supreme Court justices and veto of legislation.
"The president does present a high profile. He often sets the tone and mood of the country. For example, if the president sees civil rights as a prominent issue, as did President Johnson, then the nation will likely follow his lead.
"The economy is 'good' now. We are living in a time of prosperity. That seems to be a major factor in the presidential campaign. I believe, however, that our nation is morally and spiritually bankrupt.
"The next president of the United States has an almost unprecedented opportunity to restore integrity to the White House. The executive office has been plagued by scandals over the past several administrations. While some have had a greater negative impact on our nation, all have been tragic and regrettable.
"In the past, presidents have called for times of fasting and prayer for our nation. In some of our most bitter struggles, we have turned back to the God in whom we at least say we trust. Dr. Martin Luther King said it well in a sermon he preached in 1956: 'I still believe that standing up for the truth of God is the greatest thing in the world. This is the end of life. The end of life is not to be happy. The end of life is not to achieve pleasure and avoid pain. The end of life is to do the will of God, come what may.'
"The greatest thing the next president can do is call the nation he leads back to a solid foundation of integrity, truth, and trust in Almighty God."

Second order analysis of reinforced concrete frames
Document typeArticle
Date issued1982
PublisherComité Euro-International du Béton
Rights accessOpen Access
In this paper we propose a second order method to analyse concrete frames based on the imposed deformations method. The geometrical nonlinearity is introduced by using imposed curvatures associated to the "second order isostatic forces" defined in this paper. In the same way material nonlinearity is introduced by means of imposed curvatures obtained from the axial rorce-moment-curvature diagram of each cross section by compatibility of material properties requirements. The proposed nethod can be considered to fall within the "General method" proposed by the C.E.B. Several structures are analysed comparing the results with those obtained by other dnalytical methods and conclusions are drown both relative to the method's proper ties and the structural behaviour.

Muñecas tan the hides of the Dallas Derby Devils
By Simon McCormack
It looked like every point was going to come at a punishing price.
In the early minutes, Duke City's Muñecas Muertas and the Dallas Derby Devils were locked in a defensive, hard-hitting bout at the Santa Ana Star Center. Then Muñecas' star jammer Muffin drew first blood.
She tore through the wall of Derby Devils and racked up big points, giving the Muñecas an early 28-18 point lead. Her jam demonstrated that the Dallas defense was penetrable. "If you can go in and prove that scoring is possible, it's important," Muffin explained after the match.

Dateline: Guinea—Overwhelmed by criminal behavior, law enforcement officials in the coastal African nation of Guinea are encouraging citizens to burn any suspected criminals alive. Speaking in the capital city of Conakry last Tuesday, the new military government's anticrime chief, Captain Moussa Tiegboro Camara, told citizens, "I'm asking you to burn all armed bandits who are caught red-handed committing an armed robbery." Camara went on to say, "The prisons are full and cannot take more people, and the situation cannot continue like that." Camara, who was appointed by the military junta to oversee the fight against drugs and serious crime, made his comments at a meeting of city officials. "These measures worry us," Thierno Maadjou Sow, president of the Guinean Organization of Human Rights, told Reuters news service. "The law of the country must not be bypassed, whatever the circumstances." The National Council for Democracy and Development (CNDD) seized power in Guinea, the world's largest exporter of bauxite, last December after long-serving President Lansana Conte died.

This time last week 30 young refugees and migrants and supporters from around the country joined us as we marched to Parliament.
Will you donate your #FirstFiver?
It's always a dream for charities when campaigns "go viral", breaking into the public consciousness and gaining a life of their own. That happened this week for the whole charity sector involved in #FirstFiver.
It started for me early on a Saturday morning as I scrolled through Twitter and found myself copied to a late night tweet by John Thompson, fundraising consultant and fellow fundraising tweeter, who pledged to donate his first new plastic five pound note to charity and encouraged others to follow.
The hidden impact of debt
Our new report, The Damage of Debt finds that more than 500,000 children living in debt-ridden families are unhappy with their lives.

A budget for the next generation?
The Chancellor talked about acting now rather than paying later, yet this budget missed opportunities to do so.
Empowering young people to make safe informed decisions
For today's National Child Sexual Exploitation (CSE) Awareness Day our services are running and taking part in events across the country. Here a practitioner answers our questions about working with young people at risk of sexual abuse.
Quiz: How much do you know about child sexual exploitation?
For today's Child Sexual Exploitation Awareness Day we would like to help everyone know the signs of exploitation and what everyone of us can do to stop it.
'I didn't know I was a young carer until I came to this service – you don't really think about it'
Today we released our new report all about young carers like Bina. The report explores the challenges of identifying the support that can help them, and how we get a sense of how many young carers there are.

I am really not much of a lists kind of guy. I mean reading a list is sometimes as exciting as reading the phone book.
David Wallechinsky, his father, Irving Wallace, and sister, Amy Wallace published the first "Book of Lists" back in 1977 and the rest is list history.
Many Bleacher Report writers have adopted this list format. We have "Top 10" lists, "Bottom 10" lists, "The Best Players To Not Do This," "The Worst Players To Do That," "My Favorite ___" lists...you get the idea.
Even the sample for the slide title is "The 10 Best Basketball Shoes of All Time." Quite frankly, after "Chuck Taylor" and "Air Jordan," I would be done.
I know many readers enjoy these articles, and I'm not saying I don't on occasion. It is just that sometimes they leave me wanting more. I'm just inquisitive by nature and as Albert Popwell said to "Dirty Harry" Callahan in 1971, "I gots to know."
What really got me started thinking about this was (ironically enough) a list I read recently on strange sports conventions.
Throwing octopi onto the ice at a hockey game is strange indeed, but what started this peculiar tradition?

The 21-year-old who became known during fall practice more for who he has been dating – Dallas Cowboys cheerleader Jordan Daigle – than what he has done on the football field is trying to change that perception among OSU Cowboys fans.
Question: Shamiel Gary may be ready to play Saturday against Lamar, but if he's not does that change the way you prepare to make the first start of your college career?
Craig: You've always got to practice like you're going to be the starter. If you don't feel that way you'll never be prepared. I'm going to practice every day this week like I do every week and if he can't go, then I'm the starter, and I'll be ready.
How much fun was going home last weekend to play in the Alamodome?
Craig: It was great. It was one of those surreal moments. Since I'm from San Antonio, I've played probably six or seven (high school) playoff games there, (and even) in the same locker room. It was almost crazy to see yourself as a 15-year-old playing for your high school team and then four or five years later you're playing there with a D-I school in a big-time game. It was really a cool situation.
You played quite a bit after Shamiel went out with the injury.
Craig: Obviously you never want any of your teammates to get hurt, but to go in and play a lot and to make a few plays in my hometown was a very, very cool situation.
How big was your cheering section of family and friends?
Craig: At least 30. There were coaches, family friends and actual family. It was a really big deal for them. It was just another game for me but those guys who can't drive nine hours (to Stillwater) from San Antonio, it meant a lot to them. It was really, really a big deal for them.

Non-Messy Kid's Project by Melissa Gallagher
The puppet show idea is a big hit with my 2 year old. I take old garden gloves, the tan canvas kind, or little knit gloves (I'm always finding one and losing the match) and make five little finger puppets out of them. I don't cutup the gloves, but leave them whole so my daughter can stick her hands in them. For the knit gloves, I like to use wiggly eyes, pipe cleaners, yarn scraps and fabric scraps to crate the characters. On the canvas gloves (and this is better for younger children), non-toxic markers can be used to color on hair, eyes, faces and even clothes. Just use polyfill stuffing, and if the glove is too big I use old pantyhose stuffed with polyfill to take up the extra room. If my little one puts her hand in the glove, it's a nice fit. I hope this helps, it's easy. It's fun and the gloves are great to share with friends!

Appearances in six special early season events, the Cardinals' inaugural season in the Atlantic Coast Conference, at least 20 games on national television and 21 home games in the KFC Yum! Center highlight the 2014-15 University of Louisville men's basketball schedule.
Nearly half of the Cardinals' 31 games will be played against teams that participated in post-season competition last season, including 11 from the 2014 NCAA Tournament (NCAA Tournament: Duke, North Carolina twice, Florida State, Kentucky, NC State, Ohio State, Pittsburgh, Syracuse, Virginia twice; NIT: Clemson twice, Minnesota; College Insiders.com Tournament: Cleveland State). Twenty-one of the Cardinals' games will be played against teams that won at least 17 games last season.
"This will be one of the biggest challenges we've had since I've been at Louisville," said U of L Coach Rick Pitino, whose team has played a schedule ranked among the top 12 toughest by the ratings percentage index (RPI) in six of the last seven seasons. "It's not only a fantastic league schedule, where three of our four repeat opponents are ranked high in the polls, but our non-conference schedule which includes three Big Ten schools will present a significant task. We believe our veterans will be prepared for it and certainly we look forward to the challenge. This should be one of the most exciting schedules in U of L history with our first season in the ACC."
Including a pair of exhibition games, 12 of the Cardinals' first 15 games will be played at home in the KFC Yum! Center, U of L's spectacular 22,000-seat home arena. The Cardinals will face their first outside competition in an exhibition game against Barry on Nov. 1 in the KFC Yum! Center. Bellarmine, which like Barry reached the NCAA Division II tournament, will provide the opposition in U of L's second home exhibition game on Nov. 9 with a team coached by former U of L assistant Scott Davenport.
U of L officially opens its season against Minnesota on Nov. 14 on ESPN in the Armed Forces Classic, to be played at U.S. Air Station Borinquen, a U.S. Coast Guard base in Puerto Rico. The 2014 NIT Champion Golden Gophers are coached by Richard Pitino, a former U of L assistant and son of the Cardinals' Hall of Fame head coach.
The Cardinals return home for four straight games in the Global Sports Showcase, a round-robin event which starts with Louisville facing Jacksonville State on Nov. 17. Marshall (Nov. 21, ESPNU), Savannah State (Nov. 24) and Cleveland State (Nov. 26) close out the four tournament games all played at the KFC Yum! Center.
Ohio State visits Louisville on Dec. 2 for the ACC-Big Ten Challenge on ESPN, followed by another home game against Florida International on Dec. 5. The Cardinals will face Indiana in the Jimmy V Classic on Dec. 9 on ESPN in New York's Madison Square Garden.
Next up for Louisville will be a home game against UNC Wilmington on Dec. 14 (ESPNU) in the 13th Annual Billy Minardi Classic, an event named in memory of Pitino's brother-in-law who died in the Sept. 11, 2001 terrorist attacks on the World Trade Center. The Seahawks are guided by first-year head coach Kevin Keatts, who served as an assistant at Louisville the last three seasons.
After Louisville's first true road test in a Dec. 20 game at intrastate foe Western Kentucky, the Cardinals return for three straight at home beginning with a Dec. 23 contest against Cal State Northridge (ESPNU). It will be the third team Louisville faces coached by former Cardinal assistant, as the Matador's coach Reggie Theus was a U of L assistant coach from 2003-05.
The Cardinals face intrastate rival Kentucky on Dec. 27 in the KFC Yum! Center in the ESPN2-televised Basketball Hall of Fame Shootout, with a portion of the game proceeds benefitting the non-profit Naismith Memorial Basketball Hall of Fame in Springfield, Mass. Louisville will close out 2014 against Long Beach State on Dec. 30 in its final non-conference game on the schedule.
Louisville's ACC schedule will include a challenging slate of 18 games, including two games each against Pittsburgh, Virginia, Miami, and North Carolina. The Cardinals will have designated rivals Pittsburgh and Virginia both home and away each of the next two seasons as each team will face 10 opponents once and four twice.
In Louisville's first year in the 15-team league, the Cardinals' home ACC opponents will consist of Clemson, Duke, North Carolina, NC State, Miami, Notre Dame, Pittsburgh, Virginia, and Virginia Tech. U of L's nine league road games will be at Boston College, Florida State, Georgia Tech, North Carolina, Miami, Pittsburgh, Syracuse, Virginia, and Wake Forest.
The Cardinals will open the new year and open play in the ACC with a road trip to Wake Forest on Jan. 3. Clemson will be the Cardinals' first home ACC opponent on Jan. 7. The ACC Tournament will be staged in the Greensboro (N.C.) Coliseum on March 10-14.
Louisville returns two starters and eight lettermen from its successful 2013-14 squad which reached the NCAA Sweet 16 with a 31-6 record, earned the American Athletic Conference co-championship, won the league tournament title and earned its fourth consecutive conference Team Academic Excellence Award, which recognizes the highest collective grade point average in each league sport.

Trends, Advances and Prospects of Optical Imaging in Germany and Beyond
Michael Totzeck,
Fellow, Corporate Research and Technology, Carl Zeiss AG, Germany
High wage industrial countries like Germany face a number of unique challenges, like the demographic change, globalization, and the need for a constant technological competitive edge. Optical imaging is a key technology to address these challenges. Lithography for example is one of the core technologies in the production of integrated circuits as well as camera chips and displays. This drives an abundant computational capacity giving rise to other technologies like computational imaging, machine learning , big data analysis and virtual/augmented reality. The resulting digitalization of optics in turn pushes miniaturized optics ranging from smartphone cameras, to microoptics, down to plasmonics and metamaterials. On system side the trend to lightfield-imaging, 3D-imaging and multimodal imaging continues and finds applications in research and healthcare. For that high imaging speed and large fields are key. The German academic and industrial landscape, in this regard, will be addressed, too.
Michael Totzeck received his PhD in physics from the Technical University of Berlin in 1989 shortly after the break of the Berlin Wall. After heading a group on waveoptics there, he moved 1995 to the University of Stuttgart to found a group on quantitative, high resolution microscopy. In 2002 he joined Carl Zeiss as a principal scientist for polarization optics in optical lithography. In 2008 he moved to Zeiss corporate research and technology to head the metrology department there. In 2013 he was appointed as a honorary professor by the University of Konstanz. In 20015 he became a Zeiss Fellow. He is author and coauthor of 68 patent families and about 30 papers in refereed journals. His research interests comprise lithography, high-NA imaging, optical metrology, optical design & simulation, polarization-optics and digital optics.
Coherent X-ray Imaging
Keith Nugent,
Deputy vice-Chancellor (Research), La Trobe University, Australia
Coherent X-ray imaging has been the subject of intense research over the last decade. The motivations for this work are to fully exploit the massive increase in the coherent flux available from the latest generation of synchrotron sources and to develop new approaches to molecular images using X-ray free-electron laser sources. The state of the field will be reviewed and opportunities identified.
Professor Keith Nugent is currently Deputy Vice-Chancellor (Research). Professor Nugent holds an Honours degree in physics from the University of Adelaide and a PhD in laser physics from the Australian National University. He is a Fellow of the Australian Academy of Science, the Australian Institute of Physics and the American Physical Society. Prior to joining La Trobe University, Professor Nugent was Director of the Australian Synchrotron, Laureate Professor of Physics at the University of Melbourne and Research Director of the ARC Centre of Excellence for Coherent X-ray Science, a multiple-institution centre which undertook research at the interface of physics, biology and chemistry..

More than 25 years ago, the first in vivo measurement of the eye's wave aberration was demonstrated at the Univ. of Heidelberg, using the Shack-Hartmann method. Since then, various new diagnostic and treatment modalities have been successfully introduced, like adaptive optics scanning laser ophthalmoscopy (AO-SLO), adaptive optics optical coherence tomography (AO-OCT) and adaptive optics two-photon ophthalmoscopy (AO-TPO), as well as customized refractive-surgical techniques, like customized LASIK (e.g. CustomVue), femtosecond laser refractive
surgery (e.g. ReLEx, SMILE), femtosecond laser assisted cataract surgery (FLACS) and various customized intraocular lens (IOL) developments, including postoperative in-vivo IOL fine-tuning.
Professor Josef Bille, winner of the 2012 European Inventor Lifetime Achievement Award is a pioneer in the field of corrective laser eye surgery. For more than 40 years he has worked on developing and refining a method for mapping irregularities in the cornea and fine tuning the lasers required to repair them. Central to the technology is his groundbreaking work in wavefront technology, a measurement technology which can scan the human eye with extraordinary precision for small errors. With a detailed map of these errors, it is possible to devise precise surgical procedures (wavefront guided laser eye surgery) or to produce tailor-made lenses. Professor Bille's contributions to the field of laser eye surgery allow medical professionals to map the structure of the eye with unprecedented precision, and provides them with lasers that are accurate and delicate enough to correct nearly any imperfection. His work has led to the creation of five successful companies, creating over 1000 jobs, and impacting the lives of millions of patients worldwide who have now been treated using this technology.

ROME, GA. - Facing a two-run deficit after seven innings, the Charleston RiverDogs came from behind to take a 3-2 win over the Rome Braves in 11 innings Saturday night at State Mutual Stadium in South Atlantic League action.
Charleston scored in the eighth and ninth innings to tie the contest before a trio of wild pitches allowed Abiatal Avelino to score the winning run in the 11th.
The RiverDogs rose to 33-29 in the second half and 66-66 overall. It also was Charleston's first victory when trailing after eight innings this season. The Braves dropped to 28-34 and 52-80, respectively as the series evened at 1-1.
Matt Marksberry kept the RiverDogs hitless in four innings and scoreless through his first seven frames of work. After yielding a one-out walk to Tyler Wade in the first, Marksberry retired the next 11 batters. Jackson Valera's leadoff single in the fifth was negated by an inning-ending double play. Despite a pair of singles in the seventh, Marksberry held Charleston scoreless.
Rome scored its two runs during the bottom of the third inning against Luis Niebla. Connor Oliver got on base with a one-out walk. Oliver moved to third base on a single by Connor Lien, who reached second base on a throw. A Carlos Franco groundout scored Oliver and also pushed Lien to third. Jacob Schrader followed with a single, driving in Lien for a 2-0 Braves lead.
Charleston broke up the shutout in the eighth and cut the difference to 2-1. Brandon Thomas led off with a walk. Following back-to-back outs, Marksberry was replaced by Matt Sims. With Thomas at second base, Claudio Custodio singled to bring in the run. Although Charleston had a chance to tie the contest in the eighth, Sims ended the inning with a pickoff.
During the top of the ninth inning, the RiverDogs were able to tie the game at 2-2. Michael O'Neill was at first base with two outs for Miguel Andujar, who hit a line drive to center field. The ball was misplayed and rolled to the outfield wall for a triple that scored O'Neill. Neither Charleston nor Rome was able to add another run in the ninth, sending the game to extra innings.
Wild pitches allowed Charleston to grab a 3-2 lead in the top of the 11th. Custodio registered a leadoff single but was put out at second base when Avelino hit into a force out. A fly out gave Rome the second out of the inning, but Avelino advanced to second on a wild pitch before O'Neill received a walk. Two more wild pitches helped Avelino cross home plate.
The RiverDogs escaped a dangerous situation in the last of the 11th to hold on for the win. Sal Giardina reached on a leadoff single and advanced to third base on Reed Harper's one-out double. Cody Livesay was intentionally walked ahead of Oliver, who grounded into a game-ending double play turned by Gosuke Katoh, Wade and Valera.
Eric Ruth claimed the victory and evened his record at 2-2. Richie Tate took the loss and fell to 4-5. Stefan Lopez earned his sixth save in as many chances this season.
Coming up
The finale of this three-game series, scheduled for 2 p.m. Sunday, features RiverDogs RHP Rookie Davis (6-8, 5.12 ERA) and Braves RHP Steve Janas (2-6, 5.00 ERA).

MM MODERN VI/UBX/EJ Ophthalmic Glasses
These sunglasses are the perfect accessory on the beach, on the way to the office or in the city. There is only one slight drawback: all the envious looks you will attract. Would another colour not be a better match for your favourite outfit? Check also the other styles of MM MODERN VIin our 2015, and 2016 Max Mara range.
Expressive lines add character to the classical approach, making the glasses a must-have for women. Eyewear is in. Full rim is extremely popular, because you feel that you get more eyeglass for your money. It is not just about their resilience, but also about the visibility of material and design, which are of the highest quality. The quadratic shape is a good choice, especially for softer facial features. The square glasses give more contour to a round face. The straight outer edges also give the impression that the face is longer. The metal frame is very light and comfortable to wear. It is both robust and classy. The colour blue is fresh and modern. Having the courage to choose such an exciting colour offers a new approach. Similar to grey, brown lenses don't distort the visual impression as much as other colours do. With all other shades, the eyes take longer to neutralize the colour impression. This brand of sunglasses, of course, also provides your eyes with optimum UV400 protection.
The respective lenses are also available in your prescription strength. Our digital dispensing optician will help you find the cheapest option.
The next shipment is on its way, so we will have your Max Mara back in stock very soon. We hope the unbelievably low price will be a consolation for the short wait. In our online shop we have consistently low prices. You won't get MM MODERN VI at such a low price, not even in the sale.

ASHLAND, Va. (AP) - Authorities believe the Washington-area sniper left a message with a telephone number at the scene of the latest shooting in Virginia, The Associated Press learned Sunday. Police appealed to the person who left the message to contact them.
"To the person who left us a message at the Ponderosa last night. You gave us a telephone number. We do want to talk to you. Call us at the number you provided. Thank you," Montgomery County, Md., Police Chief Charles Moose said in a televised briefing.
Moose made his cryptic statement as sniper task force investigators said they were working on the assumption that the sniper has expanded his geographic reach after shooting 11 people, nine fatally, in the Washington area since Oct. 2.
Surgeons succeeded Sunday night in removing the bullet from the 37-year-old man shot at the Ponderosa in Ashland, Va., on Saturday night, and turned it over to investigators for testing. Hospital spokeswoman Pam Lepley did not know the bullet's condition.
The victim remained in critical condition after three hours of surgery. Lepley said doctors were cautiously optimistic but expect the man will need more surgery.
Public schools in the Ashland and Richmond area will be closed Today, affecting more than 200,000 students, "based on the volume of parent and community concern," school officials announced late Sunday. After the earlier sniper slayings, schools restricted activities but did not close.
Moose refused to elaborate or take questions about the message left at the steakhouse or how it was left. But he asked the news media to "carry it clearly and carry it often."
After the briefing, Officer Joyce Utter, spokeswoman for Montgomery County police, said Moose's statement "should make complete sense" to the person who left the message.
"That is the only person Chief Moose wants to talk to," she said.
A law enforcement source close to the investigation said the person who left the message is probably the sniper who is responsible for the Washington area shootings.
Investigators who combed the area outside the Ponderosa finished their search Sunday but said little about what, if anything, they had found.
Some witnesses said they heard a shot coming from a wooded area near the restaurant, but nobody reported seeing the shooter.
If the shooting is linked to the sniper attacks, it would be the first weekend attack and the farthest the sniper has traveled - about 85 miles south of Washington.
The longest previous distance from the Washington area was Spotsylvania County, about 50 miles south of Washington. It would also break the longest lull between shootings, about five days.
Former FBI profiler Clinton Van Zandt said Saturday's shooting, if related, could show the killer's approach is changing in response to law enforcement tactics. For instance, reports last week that military surveillance planes would be used in the Washington suburbs probably prompted the sniper to move farther away, he said.
And since much had been made about the weekend lulls, "I think he reacted to that," Van Zandt said.
The most recent confirmed sniper attack was the Oct. 14 slaying of FBI analyst Linda Franklin outside a Home Depot store in Falls Church.
Residents were on edge in Ashland, a town of about 6,500. At the Virginia Center Commons mall, about seven miles from the shooting, a normally busy food court sat half-empty Sunday. Shopper Nancy Elrod said she almost had been too afraid to come.
"We certainly felt sorry about all the people up north who were nervous and now it's down here and we're nervous too," said Elrod, 45.
Police said the victim of Saturday's shooting, whose name was not released, and his wife were traveling and stopped in Ashland for gas and food. His wife told authorities the shot sounded like a car backfiring and said her husband took about three steps before collapsing.
The victim underwent surgery for three hours Saturday night at MCV Hospitals in Richmond, Lepley said.
Doctors had to remove part of the man's stomach, half of his pancreas and his spleen, said Dr. Rao Ivatury, the hospital's director of trauma and critical care. The man was conscious but unable to talk because he was on a ventilator.
"The prognosis is still guarded, but since he is a very healthy man and he is very young, the chances are fair to good, I would say," Ivatury said.
