Ice Hockey recognized for its Balkan project, uniting nine countries
SOCHI, Russia For the development program Balkan Ice Hockey Union, the IIHF has been named the International Sports Federation of the Year by the Peace and Sport Awards 2012.The Balkan program of the International Ice Hockey Federation was nominated together with projects from the International Gymnastics Federation (Gymnastics for all) and the World Taekwondo Federation (Taekwondo Peace Corps).Joël Bouzou, founder of Peace and Sport, commended the IIHFs Balkan endeavor, calling it a remarkable initiative and the first ever sport alliance founded in the Balkan with the primary goal of promoting peace and friendly relations among the Balkan nations.The awards ceremony was held on Thursday, 1 November as part of the 2012 Peace and Sport International Forum in Sochi, Russia.I am very happy and proud to accept this award on behalf of the IIHF and the Balkan Ice Hockey Union, said IIHF President and IOC Executive Committee member René Fasel. It reinsures us that we did the right thing by identifying the Balkan region to stage a developmental project of this scale. René Fasel recognizes two former IIHF Council Members for making it possible to launch the Balkan Ice Hockey Union.It wouldnt have been possible without the efforts of Ernest Aljancic and the support from the Vice President of Gazprom, Alexander Medvedev, said Fasel. I would like to extend a warm thank you to both Ernest and Alex for their commitment to this cause.Encompassing nine countries with a total population of 150 million, the BIHU project aims to extend the regional co-operation between the members during a four-year period with a string of short- and long term activities. The participating nations are: Bosnia & Herzegovina, Bulgaria, Croatia, FYR Macedonia, Greece, Romania, Serbia, Slovenia and Turkey.What makes me real proud is that this goes beyond ice hockey and sport, said René Fasel. This is truly also a humanitarian peace project directed to a region which we all know has suffered greatly in the 90s. The project is ice hockeys contribution of bringing stability, unity and happiness back to the region. Launched in 2008, the Peace and Sport Awards have become one of the highlights of the Peace and Sport International Forum.The objective is to put the spotlight on initiatives and individuals who have particularly contributed to peace and social stability in the world in 2012.These Awards are meant to reward the expertise of various stakeholders working for sustainable peace through sport, through initiatives which promote best practices in the field.Under the auspices of the BIHU project (aimed at boys and girls under-16), there have already been two Balkan Ice Hockey Festivals organized in the two of the membership nations. The first one was held in Bled, Slovenia in August of 2011, while second was held in Izmit, Turkey in the summer of 2012. In total, 135 players took part.Click here for an IIHF.com article about the project, published in December 2011.Facts & Figures:1st Balkan Hockey Festival in Bled in Summer 2011

What's the best thing to do if the condom breaks during sex? - Meagan*
Many times, a couple won't notice that a condom broke until after sex. But if you know that the condom has broken during sex, stop right away, and use a new condom.
If the condom does break:
To prevent condoms from breaking, keep them away from heat and light, don't carry them in a wallet, don't open them with anything sharp (like scissors or teeth), and avoid using oils or lotions on them. The material used to make condoms can weaken over time, so check the expiration date and don't use one that has expired.

Hotel & Resort Details
The Hotel Saint Louis boasts a magnificant location opposite the Bellecote piste in Courchevel 1850. Courchevel is a great French resort and the capital of the Three Valleys, its slopes are vast and its nightlife infamous.
Accommodation is situated within Courchevel 1850 in great ski-in, ski-out location. Courchevel 1850 is the highest of the Courchevel stations and benefits from a number of superb runs back into resort. The skiing is superlative with north-facing homeward slopes, high altitude and snow cannons providing a virtual guarantee of good snow all season.
Beginners and Intermediates
Courchevel is the perfect resort for beginners, with dedicated "ZEN" areas that are affectively designated, fenced off nursery slopes. The best place for beginners tends to be the Pralong and Le Bellecote slopes with a number of green runs available. Intermediates will be spoilt for choice with a huge range of easy blue and varying red runs in Courchevel Valley, the largest valley in the ski area. Courchevel 1850 is really well linked with Courchevel 1650, Courchevel 1550 and La Tania, the links to La Tania are particularly well suited to intermediates with picturesque, tranquil blue runs right down to the resort.
Advanced and Off Piste
Courchevel has a lot to offer advanced and off piste skiers with some of the best black runs in the Trois Vallees, choose from the famous challenging 'grand couloirs' from the top of Saulire or the vast off-piste areas and heart-pumping moguls around Chanrossa chair lift.

In what's quickly becoming a highly anticipated annual event, the City of Magnolia and the Magnolia Community Foundation (MCF) have set Aug. 18 as the date for the second annual Magnolia Tailgate Party on the Stroll.
'Last year's turnout was amazing," MCF President Deborah Rose Miller said. "And this year, more is being planned for all ages. It is a great way to end the summer with a family-friendly evening that celebrates all school activities with the entire community."
Miller said there will be a few enhancements to this year's event.
"The biggest change is two-fold," she said. "First the bands and other groups will have performances throughout the evening on four side streets around the Stroll, instead of just one big performance. The other will be a district-wide pep rally at Sullivan Park at 7:30 p.m."
Groups performing will be the various bands, drill teams, drumlines, cheerleaders and others from the Magnolia schools.
Karaoke has been added to this year's event, while the Magnolia Rotary Club will have a dunking booth. Football coaches and principals from both Magnolia High School and Magnolia West High School will be inside the booth taunting tossers who will pay $1 for each throw. Proceeds from the dunking booth will benefit the Magnolia ISD athletic programs.
"The dunking booth we have this year is brand new and bigger," Miller said.
Booster club's from the various schools will have booths set up to sell spirit items, while other vendor and food booths will be set up along the Stroll. Vendor and food booth spots are still available for $50.
MCF has also set up a contest that offers a $500 cash prize to the school that receives the most likes on the MCF Facebook page.
"The evening will not only be a great party for all ages, but will benefit our community in tangible ways, especially the children," Miller said. "Seeing all the kids come together in one place is something I am really excited about."
Miller said the idea for the tailgate party came after a brainstorming session of MCF members.
"The tailgate was a creation of the Stroll committee and Ravelle Smith, who originated the concept," she said.
There is no charge to attend the tailgate, however alcohol is not allowed. Students are encouraged to wear their activity uniform or attire to the event.
BRENHAM, Texas (AP) — A Central Texas high school football player is hospitalized in intensive care after suffering a stroke.
Senior Brenham defensive back and receiver Justin Davis is recovering from surgeries to ease pressure from brain swelling. Brenham athletic director and football coach Glen West said Davis is in critical condition at St. Joseph Hospital in Bryan.
West said Davis had reported feeling ill about a half-hour after practice Wednesday. After basic tests for a concussion proved negative, Davis said he felt better and went into a team meeting.
His condition quickly worsened, however, and he was taken to a Brenham hospital before going to Bryan 35 miles away. West said the diagnosis was a stroke caused by a blood clot in his carotid artery, a rarity in a young person.

The sound of whistles and the sight of pigskins flying through the air can only mean one thing. It's football season in Texas. Big changes are in the air, as area teams have changed districts, changed classifications and one even prepares for its first varsity season. The Tribune talked to area coaches to get their takes on the upcoming season. This week we take a look at Magnolia's two high schools, while next week we will preview Tomball, Tomball Memorial and Waller.
Magnolia West Mustangs
Coach Shawn Bell is headed into his third season at Magnolia West, having just completed the best season in the school's short history.
Bell has some big shoes to fill in finding a replacement for all-everything running back Desmond Richards, but he said this group is possibly the most athletic he has ever had.
"I feel like we have seven to nine guys who can make big plays for us," Bell said. "When you lose an explosive back like Desmond it's tough, but our offense will be more wide open. I feel confident that we are definitely more athletic than we have ever been."
With five returning offensive starters, Bell said that he has a deep group of receivers that will look to open up the passing game for new quarterback Brandon O'Neil. O'Neil switches to the offensive side of the ball after earning all-district honors at outside linebacker last season.
"We wanted to put someone back there that gives us the best chance to win," Bell said. "His transition has gone pretty smooth and he has a great arm."
O'Neil will be looking at the deepest wide receiver group in school history, according to Bell. That group will be led by Zeke Bronson and Jeremy Jordan.
"We are going to run every formation in the book," Bell said. "This is as multiple of an offense as we have ever been."
Bell said the team understands that expectations have changed after a playoff birth.
"They understand that expectations have gone up and that they've got to give a championship effort all the time," he said.
As for Bell's expectations?
"It's a tough district," he said. "But I feel like we can be as talented if not more talented than we were last year."
Magnolia Bulldogs
Injuries and youth played a key part in Magnolia High School's difficult 2-8 season last year. The Bulldogs were down to their junior varsity quarterback by week seven, as the losses piled on.
With the injuries now healed and a year of experience under the young players belts, Magnolia head coach Andy Sexton looks to have a much improved team this season.
"I definitely think we will be better," he said. "Last year we had 10 sophomores starting and had some injuries. We will be a much improved team."
The Bulldogs will look to junior Noah McGowan to call the shots at quarterback in Magnolia's multiple shotgun 2-back set.
Sexton said that juniors Sheyrome Harris and Greg Soloman and sophomore Shane Mears will all be looked upon to provide leadership and numbers from the skill positions.
'They all have a tremendous ability to run and make guys miss," he said.
Returning seven starters on both sides of the ball, Sexton will look to an aggressive attacking defense with several senior linemen to provide turnovers and field position.
Sexton said the team has worked hard the entire summer to help Magnolia return to its winning tradition.
"The kids are ready to get the program back to winning," he said. "Our goal is to get back into the playoffs."
One is adjusting to a new system under a new coach, while the other is preparing for it's first ever varsity football season. However, both the Tomball Memorial Wildcats and Tomball Cougars are readying themselves for a move to District 22-4A.
The Tribune talked to both schools head coaches about the upcoming season and what fans can expect from both teams.
Tomball Cougars
Tomball High School welcomed Danny Ramsey as its new head coach earlier this year. Ramsey replaced Tommy Kaiser, who retired.
Ramsey comes to Tomball from Waco High, where he led them to the 4A playoffs the past two seasons.
"I'm from this area," Ramsey said. "I graduated from Westfield High School and I have family all around this area. It was a family decision to come home."
While the Cougars return several lettermen, Ramsey's squad won't be that experienced, as Tomball returns just three starters on both sides of the ball. That won't stop the team from having some lofty goals, however.
"A lot of kids will be playing varsity for the first time," he said. "Our goals will still be the same. I'd like to see us contend for a district championship, but that all depends on how much the kids are willing to sacrifice."
"The kids are hungry and their motivation level is pretty high."
Ramsey will run a number of formations on offense, while sticking to a spread option style of play. On defense Ramsey said the Cougars will look to attack out of a 3-4 set.
"We will run a lot of different looks at teams though," he said.
Ramsey said that Drew Reynolds will be a top target at wide receiver, while Xavier Powell will once again handle the backfield duties at tailback.
Ramsey said he can't wait for the season to start.
"We are really excited about this season," he said. "Hopefully at the very least we can prepare our kids to become good and honest citizens along the way."
Tomball Memorial Wildcats
Tomball Memorial head coach Finis Vanover is ready for the season to start. One year after the new school played a sub-varsity schedule in preparation for this season, the Wildcats are also ready for the lights of Friday nights.
"The deal last year was just to get them on the field and playing and it worked out well," Vanover said. "But we're ready to get out there and do it because Thursday nights just aren't the same. We are ready for them to experience the crowds, the lights and the bands on a Friday night."
The Wildcats, who went 7-3 at their top sub-varsity level last season, have two starting position battles still raging, according to Vanover.
Quarterback candidates Jared Seinkiewich and Jordan Peterson are battling for the starting position. The runner-up will still play at receiver this season, however.
"It's a tremendous battle going on there between two great young men," Vanover said.
At tailback Josh Williams and Payton Logan are fighting for the starting nod, though both will see time at the position.
"Those two are way ahead of others at that position," Vanover said.
Vanover plans to run multiple offensive formations, but will still employ a run-first mentality where the pass plays off the run.
On defense Tomball Memorial will play an attacking, blitzing style.
"We will play man-to-man coverage and make things happen up front," Vanover said.
He is looking to sophomore linebacker B.J. Catherman to lead the way on defense, along with defensive end Clay Jacobs.
Vanover said the teams goals are to win, bottom line.
"We expect to win and will play to win every time," he said. "I couldn't be happier with our effort. It's been a total buy-in by the kids and their parents and we are laying a great foundation here."
It was a difficult foray into the world of Friday nights for the Tomball Memorial Wildcats, as they were hammered 37-0 by Magnolia West, Aug. 31.
The game started off with a bang for the Mustangs as they opened the game with a touchdown on the first play. The rest of the first quarter was a struggle for both teams, however and Magnolia West held a 6-0 lead heading into the second quarter.
The Mustangs put 13 more points on the board in the second quarter, before coming alive in the second half. Magnolia West head coach Shawn Bell said his team showed the early season rust after the big bang opening the game.
"Overall it took us a little while to get going after that first play," Bell said. "The kids adjusted and started playing well in the second half."
Magnolia West racked up 477 yards on total offense in the contest.
Mustang quarterback Brandon O'Neil was 3-4 passing for 110 yards and a touchdown, while Brady Bynum totaled 181 rushing yards on 22 carries. Kyle Crawford added 77 yards on eight carries, while scoring twice and Chris Nicholson ran for 72 yards and a score on just two carries. Receiver Zeke Bronson led the way with 117 yards and a touchdown on three receptions.
The Mustang defense stifled the Wildcat offense all night, holding them to 53 total yards.
Junior running back Josh Williams led Tomball Memorial with 46 yards on 11 carries.
Next up Magnolia West will host Stratford Sept. 7, at 7 p.m., while Tomball Memorial will travel to Galena Park for a 7 p.m. contest.
Defense wins championships. If the old cliche rings true then the Magnolia Bulldogs took a big step in the right direction, holding off Galena Park 14-11, Aug. 31
The Bulldogs held Galena Park to less than 200 yards of total offense, while stymying their opponents ground game.
Meanwhile, the Magnolia offense employed a three yards and a cloud of dust philosophy, racking up 266 yards rushing on the night.
Junior running back Sheyrome Harris rushed for 107 of those yards on 17 carries. He also threw a 5-yard touchdown pass.
Harris' touchdown run came late in the first half to put Magnolia on top 7-0. Harris later found Ajahne Brager for a 5-yard touchdown throw that gave the Bulldogs a 14-3 lead, midway through the third quarter.
Junior quarterback Noah McGowan completed five-of-seven passes for 44 yards and rushed for 44 more. Junior running back Greg Soloman added 81 yards on seven carries, while senior Jordan Turnbow had 30 yards on four rushes.
Magnolia will host Bryan Friday evening at 7:30 p.m.

Area teams struggled during week one of the high school football season, as Magnolia, Magnolia West, Tomball, Tomball Memorial and Tomball Concordia Lutheran all posted losses.
Magnolia 7
Bryan 19
Football coaches always say that turnovers kill a football team. The old cliché rang true for the Magnolia Bulldogs Sept. 7, as two of them proved to be key momentum turners in the game.
While Magnolia's defense let the Bryan quarterback throw the ball all over --- to the tune of more than 300 yards --- they buckled down in the red zone for the most part, holding the high powered offense to just 19 points. Two of Bryan's touchdowns, however, came immediately following Bulldog turnovers, allowing Bryan to take a 12-0 lead at the half.
Bulldog player Devane Mitchell returned the second half kickoff 60-plus yards to give Magnolia great field position. A few plays later running back Greg Solomon grinded his way into the endzone from four yards out, cutting the deficit to 12-7.
It would be the only time the Bulldogs saw the end zone on the night, however.
The Bulldogs drove the length of the field, but the Bryan defense came up with the biggest play of the night, as they stiffened on fouth-and-goal, to keep Magnolia from taking the lead.
Bryan then iced the game with a touchdown drive of their own, providing the final score of 19-7.
Magnolia's Sheyrome Harris led the Bulldogs with 127 yards on 17 carries, while Solomon added 85 yards on 13 rushes.
The Bulldogs (1-1) traveled to Bryan to take on the city's other high school Rudder, Sept. 14. Results were not available at press time.
Magnolia West 7
Stratford 17
The Mustangs of Magnolia West suffered their first loss of the season Sept. 3, thanks to a stifling Stratford defense and a couple of turnovers.
The Mustang defense had its second straight strong performance, holding Stratford to only 290 yards total, but it wasn't enough, as Magnolia West fell 17-7.
Jeremy Jordan led a balanced Mustang rushing attack with 88 yards on 12 carries, along with the Mustangs only touchdown of the night.
Brady Bynum added 50 yards on 14 carries, while Tyler Ray had 64 yards on 11 carries. Quarterback Troy Logan was 7-16 passing for 60 yards and a pick.
The Mustangs (1-1) traveled to state-ranked Brenham, to take on the Cubs Sept. 14. Results were not available at press time.
Tomball 24
Jersey Village 42
Fighting and clawing to stay in the game eventually took it's toll on the Tomball Cougars Sept. 7, as they fell to 0-2 on the season with a 49-24 loss to Jersey Village.
Running back Xavier Powell ran roughshod all over the field for 255 yards on 25 carries and three scores, but it wasn't quite enough.
After Jersey Village took a 21-7 halftime lead, the Cougars tried to make their way back into it in the third period. They were able to claw there way to a 28-21 deficit with just more than two minutes remaining in the third quarter. A quick five play, 80-yard drive by Jersey Village ended that threat however.
One more Jersey Village touchdown in the final quarter iced the game and the victory.
The Cougars dominated Jersey Village on the offensive side of the ball, as they racked up 360 yards rushing on 50 carries.
The Jersey village passing attack balanced that out as Devontre Barlow was 9-12 for 269 yards and three touchdowns.
The Cougars (0-2) traveled to Katy to take on Mayde Creek, Sept. 14. Results were not available at press time.
Tomball Memorial 3
Galena Park 35
After being shut out in their first ever varsity game, the Tomball Memorial Wildcats were able to hang with Galena Park for a half, before numbers and inexperience spelled their demise.
The Wildcats swarming defense held Galena Park to a first quarter score, while sophomore kicker Christian Jugg scored the first points in Wildcat history --- a 25-yard field goal --- to lead Memorial to a competititve first half.
The numbers game kicked in during the second half, however, as Galena Park rolled of 28 unanswered points for the 35-3 victory.
Josh Williams led the Wildcat offense with 83 yards on 19 carries, while Jared Seinkiewich added 37 yards on five rushes.
The Wildcats (0-2) traveled to Waller Sept. 14. Results were not available at press time.
Concordia Lutheran 2
Northland Christian 28
The Crusaders were overpowered by a swarming defense, falling 28-2 in their Sept. 7 contest against Northland Christian.
Concordia was held to just 146 yards of total offense, while surrendering more than 300. Their only scoring was a first quarter safety by the Crusader defense.
Stephen Everitt led Concordia with 27 yards on 11 carries, while Zac Huwyler added 46 on six rushes. Roland Frederick chipped in 38 yards on nine carries.
The Crusaders traveled to Houston Second Baptist Sept. 14. Results were not available as of press time.
The Waller Lady Bulldog volleyball team defeated Rudder (25-15, 25-14, 20-25, 25-21) Sept. 11 in district play. Senior Morgan Heise led the team with 15 kills and seven digs. Senior Taylor Thomas had 10 kills and seven digs for the week. Senior Billie Pringle led the team with 20 assists and junior Taylor Barkley added 12 assists. Lexi Huffman was named the varsity player of the week.
The junior varsity (JV) team defeated Rudder (25-21, 19-25, 26-24). The JV player of the week was Rachel Wood.
The sophomore team defeated the Waller 9B (25-15, 25-9) team. The sophomore team also played in the Columbus JV Tournament Sept. 13 and Sept. 15, falling to Weimar (14-25, 19-25), Columbus (11-25, 17-25), and Stafford (26-28, 25-15, 19-25). Megan Walker was named the Sophomore Player of the week.
The Freshman A team defeated Rudder (25-16, 25-15). Dena Hernandez was the Freshman A player of the week.
Several local teams put up valiant fights against favored opponents during their Friday night battles Sept. 28, but all of them came up on the wrong side of the scoreboard.
Magnolia West 14
Montgomery 16
Magnolia West went into its battle with Montgomery looking to win its second straight contest against its Montgomery County neighbor.
The Bears broke through for a late touchdown to take the lead 16-14 and held on by halting a final Mustangs drive with an interception to seal the win.
The game was a defensive struggle the entire night, as Magnolia West was able to hold Montgomery to less than 100 yards of offense, while taking a 7-0 halftime lead.
Montgomery broke through with a quick 72-yard drive to open up the second half, tying the score at 7-7.
The Bears then took a 10-7 lead on their next possession, before the Mustangs were able to answer.
With the Bears driving to ice the game, Magnolia West's defense forced a fumble and recovered it, giving the Mustangs hope.
Quarterback Troy Logan found receiver Zeke Bronson in the back corner of the end zone, giving Magnolia West a 14-10 lead with just more than three minutes to play.
The Bears clawed it out in the end, however, scoring the go ahead touchdown with a little more than one minute in the game.
The loss dropped the Mustangs to 2-3 overall and 1-2 in district play.
Waller 41
Willis 42
That is the one word to describe Waller's recent 42-41 loss to Willis, Sept. 28, as a last second field goal was declared no good because time had expired.
After the Wildkats first score, the Bulldogs raced downfield in their quest to answer, as Colten Frisby had a catch and run of 74-yards to set up a scoring play from quarterback Rhett Loewe to Elijah Morrow from five yards out. Denny Garcia made the extra point to tie the game.
On the following kick off, the Wildkats returned it 100 yards for the score, promptly taking the lead again at 14-7. The Bulldogs responded by marching the ball down the field to score with 36 seconds left in the first quarter, as Rhett Loewe connected with Elijah Morrow on a 16-yard pass.
The defense held on the next possession and the offense quickly got to work. With only 9:47 left in the second quarter, Rhett Loewe hit Jacob Thompson on a beautiful pass in the corner of the end zone to go up 21-14.
Willis proceeded to score on their next two possessions and took the lead 28-21.
The Bulldogs came back with 2:02 left in the quarter and Colten Frisby scored on a 17-yard run up the middle to even the score at 28.
The second half fireworks started quickly as Willis kicked an on-side kick and recovered it. Willis went on to score and the next two Waller possessions were stopped by interceptions. The Wildkats were able to covert one of those turnovers into scores and took a 42-28 lead.
The Bulldog defense shut down any more offensive threats for the remainder of the game.
Waller began its comeback attempt with a 36-yard touchdown pass from Loewe to Morrow, cutting the lead to 42-35.
The fourth quarter was played hard by both defenses, but with a minute-and-a-half remaining to play, the Bulldog offense punched one through, as Loewe connected with Desmin Merrell on a nine yard fade route for the touchdown. Waller went for two, but came up short.
Then the craziness began.
The following on-side kick was executed to perfection, as Race Mellman was able to keep the ball from going out of bounds and Josh Cunningham recovered the ball.
With under a minute to play and no time-outs, the Bulldogs were able to advance the ball inside the 20-yard line. The field goal unit raced to get on the field and Denny Garcia drilled the ball down the middle of the posts. Unfortunately, the ball was not snapped before the time had run off the clock.
Waller hosted Montgomery in district play Oct. 5. Results were not available as of press time.
Tomball 20
Ft. Bend Marshall 58
The Tomball Cougars are still searching for their first victory of the season and it looked promising, until a horrible second quarter sealed the deal for Ft. Bend Marshall.
The Cougars raced to a 14-0 lead in the games first five minutes, as Xavier Powell ran 55 yards for a touchdown, while three minutes later quarterback Drew Reynolds found Mitch Carlile for a 34-yard strike.
Then the nightmare began as Marshall rolled off 44 straight points, before Reynolds was able to connect with Dmitri Scott for a 41-yard touchdown pass with 25 seconds left in the half.
The scoring wasn't over as Marshall was able to drive 64 yards with those precious few seconds remaining to take a 51-20 lead into the locker room.
Marshall would score one more time in the game, providing the final 58-20 score.
Powell led all Tomball rushers with 78 yards on 13 carries, while Reynolds was 7-12 passing, with the two touchdown tosses.

Admittedly, the MLB All-Star Game is notably better than it's NBA and NFL counterparts. However, just because the it's best available, does not mean it cannot be improved upon. More often than not, we're left with something resembling the best players in the game getting together for an exhibition. But the current climate of the game has left many fans with a sour taste in their mouth when it comes to the Mid-Summer Classic. So how can we improve this game so that it fits the desires of fans and brings about the best competition? First, we have to start with what issues the game is plagued with. 1. Fans, especially in the American League are subject to an onslaught of undeserving Yankees and Red Sox in the All-Star Game. In 2012, every starter for the AL team played for either the Red Sox, Yank, Rangers or Tigers with the exception of Jose Bautista. How could anyone justify starting a .248 hitting Curtis Granderson over the likes of Mike Trout or Adam Jones? Ho...

Chevy Blazer 5.7L 1992-1993, Direct Fit Pre-OBDII Catalytic Converter by MagnaFlow®. If your car needs replacement, install one that will get you through the smog check and give you more horsepower. This converter will directly replace the factory unit, with little or no fabrication required, and the monolithic honeycomb construction and other features will allow maximum exhaust flow.
- Reduces harmful emissions
- Increases exhaust flow compared to original factory converter
- Increased exhaust flow allows your engine to make more power
- Exact replacement with little or no fabrication or modifications required
- Ribbed body to minimize expansion and distortion, holding the ceramic catalyst in proper alignment
- Strongest and smoothest flowing inlet and outlet joint of any manufacturer
- Each inlet tailored to the size of the converter body, for maximum flow
- Monolithic honeycomb catalyst designed for maximum flow
- Converter body manufactured from heavy-duty stainless steel
- Seam welded for a strong, tight bond
- Aluminized steel or stainless steel ribbed heat shield
- On vehicles registered outside California, the converter is warranted against construction defects for 5 years and against emissions failure for 25,000 miles
- On vehicles registered within California, the converter is warranted against construction or emissions check failure for 5 years or 50,000 miles
- Proudly made in the USA
When your catalytic converter requires replacement, you can install a factory-like unit that will let you pass a smog check, or you can install a Magnaflow converter that will pass the smog check and increase exhaust flow. If you want to be legal and get a performance increase, the choice is clear. Magnaflow is a performance exhaust system manufacturer, so they know all the tricks to increase exhaust flow for more power. They've also been producing catalytic converters for 30 years, so they've learned a thing or two along the way. All the exhaust flow knowledge they've accumulated has been packed into the design of this Direct Fit OBD II Catalytic Converter.
The heart of the Magnaflow converter is the monolithic ceramic honeycomb catalyst, which is specially designed for maximum exhaust flow and surface area. Magnaflow carefully controls the application of the precious metal catalyst to the honeycomb surface to prevent flow restriction or an emissions test failure. All Magnaflow converters have a ˝" lap joint where the neck meets the body, and the neck is formed so it doesn't extend into the converter body where it could hamper exhaust flow. As a result, the Magnaflow converter has a smoother flowing inlet/outlet joint than any other manufacturer. Magnaflow also carefully matches the size of the inlet to the converter body, because putting a larger neck on a smaller body would reduce airflow.
Besides incorporating features that increase exhaust flow for better performance, Magnaflow also builds their converters to last. The converter body is manufactured from heavy-duty stainless steel for maximum durability. All converters are seam welded close to the converter body for a strong, tight bond, not along the edge, which would allow the converter to expand and let the catalyst move around. And the aluminized steel or stainless steel heat shield creates a rigid wall of protection against heat and adds to the structural stability of the converter.
The Direct Fit Pre-OBD II Catalytic Converter is an exact replacement for your stock converter, with an interface at either end that will allow it to be bolted into the exhaust system. No fabrication or modifications are usually required. It replaces 2-way, 3-way, or 3-way with air injection converters. Two-way converters oxidize harmful Hydrocarbons (HC) and Carbon Monoxide (CO) along with secondary oxygen into water (H2O) and Carbon Dioxide (CO2). Along with the previously detailed conversion, a 3-way converter also reduces oxides of nitrogen (NOx) into Nitrogen (N2). The 3-way with air injection converter operates the same as a 3-way converter but with the addition of air pumped into the converter to improve the oxidation capabilities.
On vehicles registered outside the state of California, Magnaflow warrants the Direct Fit Pre-OBD II Catalytic Converter to be free of manufacturer's defects for a period of 5 years and emissions failure for 25,000 miles. Direct Fit Pre-OBD II Catalytic Converters on vehicles registered in California carry a 5 year, 50,000 mile warranty against manufacturer's defects and emissions failure.
Note: Always consult emissions regulations before replacing a catalytic converter.

"Picture quality was excellent and the design was really cute. I got a lot of compliments that it was a personalized thank you. Delivery came way before they said I would receive it, so that was also great."
"We wanted to personnaly thank all of the teachers who taught my daughter before her graduation and this card was perfect and had enough space on the inside to write a personnal thank you to each of them. Very smooth transaction and very helpful staff."
"I selected this card for my son's High School graduation thank you notes.It turned out even better than I expected! The paper is hard stock, firm, not flimsy. His picture was accurate. We will be proud to send out these cards. They are unusual and beautiful! I will definitely use this design again when my daughter graduates."
"When my "Thank You" cards arrived, I knew I would be so excited. They were perfect in every way. The color was simply amazing and just what I expected. The quality of the paper was extremely very good as well as the printing. This was my second order from Tinyprints and I know with every order, I would be satisfied. Thanks Tinyprints for another job well done."

Steps being taken to move beyond Common Core in Indiana
Submitted by WIKY News on Fri, 02/14/2014 - 3:13pm
Meetings that will lead to new academic standards for Indiana schools continue. Evaluation teams coming up with a framework for the standards that could replace Common Core in Indiana met Thursday and got together again Friday at Indiana Government Center South next to the Statehouse. Their work is to help the State Board of Education meet a pair of mandates from the legislature. One is to evaluate the Common Core state standards that were adopted in 2010, and second to adopt college and career-ready standards.
Sheila Huff wins Athena Award
Submitted by WIKY News on Fri, 02/14/2014 - 2:11pm
It's the top local award dedicated exclusively to women. And this year's winner is Sheila Huff. The Bosse High School Principal has been a prominent educator for the past 37 years. She's been a teacher, a coach and a principal. Huff has also been active as a member of the YWCA Board of Directors, has been a mentor in the Live Y'ers program - which provides after-school programming and mentors for at-risk girls, and has been active in numerous other serving-groups. Huff was earlier named a YWCA 100 Years 100 Women honoree.
A win for those who don't want a gay marriage ban in the state constitution
Submitted by WIKY News on Thu, 02/13/2014 - 7:57pm
Those against the effort to place Indiana's gay marriage ban in the state constitution win a surprising victory, as the Senate effectively delays a statewide vote on the issue for at least two years. In a parliamentary move that spared a vote, the Senate advanced the marriage ban without the "second sentence" ban on civil unions. The House stripped that language from the amendment before passing it last month, and the Senate's decision not to restore the language means the effort to amend the constitution has to start fresh.
Riecken wants local URC hearing on Vectren gas rates
Submitted by WIKY News on Thu, 02/13/2014 - 7:55pm
A State Representative is asking the Utility Regulatory Commission to come to Evansville and hold a public hearing on Vectren's plan to hike its natural gas rates. Gail Riecken says she's "understandably leery" whenever utilities want to increase rates, and is looking out for those on fixed incomes. Riecken says if approved, the increase starting next year would initially be up to $1.50 a month for an average customer.

Reaction from Mayor Winnecke on the end of the smoking ordinance
Submitted by WIKY News on Wed, 02/12/2014 - 7:23pm
Mayor Winnecke says he's already spoken with City Council president John Friend, but it's too soon to say what, if any action city leaders will take following the court ruling that invalidates Evansville's anti-smoking ordinance. The court ordered the reinstatement of the city's previous law, enacted in 2006. There's also a state law that restricts smoking. Winnecke says city lawyers and others are looking at how the laws fit together.
Big sinkhole at Corvette museum
Submitted by WIKY News on Wed, 02/12/2014 - 7:21pm
A sinkhole collapsed part of the Corvette Museum in Bowling Green Kentucky, damaging eight cars but not shutting down the building. A museum spokeswoman says six of the cars were owned by the museum and two were on loan from General Motors. When the hole opened up it set off an alarm and a call to the fire department. No one was in the museum at the time. The hole is in part of the domed section of the museum, and that area will remain closed. The fire department estimated the hole is about 40 feet across and 25 to 30 feet deep.
Judge issues same-sex ruling in Kentucky
Submitted by WIKY News on Wed, 02/12/2014 - 7:10pm
A judge rules that Kentucky must recognize same-sex marriages performed in other states. District Judge John Heyburn says Kentucky's laws treat gay and lesbians differently in a "way that demeans them." The constitutional ban on same-sex marriage was approved by voters almost 10 years ago. The out-of-state clause was part of it. The decision came in lawsuits brought by four gay and lesbian couples seeking to force the state to recognize their out-of-state marriages. Heyburn did not rule on whether the state could be forced to perform same-sex marriages.
State Supreme Court votes down Evansville's smoking ordinance
Submitted by WIKY News on Tue, 02/11/2014 - 7:37pm
By the closest of votes, 3-to-2, The Indiana Supreme Court strikes down Evansville's smoking ban. Lawyers for bar, tavern and private club owners had said the exemption of the Tropicana Casino violated the state constitution, and the state's highest court agrees. The state's Alcohol & Tobacco Commission says establishments that are no longer prohibited from allowing smoking as a result of the ruling must still follow the state smoking law.

Senate Rules Committee votes 8-4 for proposed ban on gay marriage
Submitted by WIKY News on Mon, 02/10/2014 - 7:11pm
A few hundred activists were in the Indiana Statehouse early Monday afternoon, well before the Senate Rules Committee voted 8-to-4 in support of the proposed state constitutional ban on gay marriage. Supporters and opponents had filled the hallway, and some testified before the vote along party lines. Republicans voted for it, Democrats did not. It now goes to the full Senate. The House approved the proposal last month, after removing language that would ban civil unions.

"Magnificent Stay, Staff Very Attentive, Excellent Value, Pristine Property"
Reviewed Mar 10, 2014
Brett L | DUNCAN
A.P., the manager of the hotel, worked with our group for over a week to book our meeting. It was all done at the last minute due to circumstances and he was SO helpful! He and his staff are among the very best I have ever experienced. The property is pristine and every member of the staff was very attentive. The room was perfect. The bed was REALLY comfortable and I slept very well! It is a great location with many amenities close by. Right off of I-40 was very convenient! The meeting room was really great! We had all we needed and A.P. and his staff were right there to assist us in every way. I have stayed at La Quinta hotels all over the country and I have to say that this is certainly at the top of the list. I will definitely stay here when I come to Memphis again!

My wife and I spent one night at this clean, well maintained & conveniently located inn last week. The staff was quick to help with requests for coffee and a hair dryer and the complimentary breakfast very convenient and more than adequate for a light start to the day. We would stay here again in a heartbeat the next time we're in the Memphis area.

Marcus S | Louisville, Kentucky
I came to La Quinta on Sunday Feb 16th near midnight, and gentleman by the name of AP in front desk greeted with awesome smile! Setting a good tone with a customer, and thoroughly appreciated their presentation. They seemed to understand the essential about customer services, while Milan and AP established great customer experience with awesome greeting, and setting me up with free membership for future visits. Milan and AP was very knowledgable with great places to adventure, and gave super advice for luncheon areas. Since my stay was 2 weeks in Memphis for business trip, I was able to see great house keeping services maintained daily, and was impressed by upkeep. It was a great experience in la Quinta in Memphis in sycamore dr, and I will definitely come back to this place again. If you want a good advice, and friendly service, speak with AP, Milan, or any of the helpful help desk, you will not be disappointed.

"Home away from home!!"

Shannon49 | Houston, Texas
We stayed at this LaQuinta on our way to Knoxville after reading the reviews online. We were expecting AP at the front desk because he was recommended to us by our friends. But we reached at the hotel very late (almost at midnight) and the guy named Milan was working there. He told us that AP is the manager and we just missed him by an hour. But anyways, the hotel is very good and the service is even better. Milan was very professional and funny too. He was very friendly. My dad is handicapped and without even asking he helped my dad getting the breakfast while i was still in the room. We had a great time staying there!! Thank you:)

In 1983, Marvin and Helene Gralnick began selling Mexican folk art and cotton sweaters in a small store on Sanibel Island, Florida. In the 25 years since then, we've helped millions of women look as great as they feel. Our chic prints, artisan jackets, and wrinkle-free Travelers collection have built quite a following at our boutiques. Our friendly environment and unique styles connected with customers in a special way that quickly evolved into over 600 Chico's boutiques nationwide. As Chico's has grown, our values – beautiful apparel, exceptional service and deep appreciation for our customers – still remain at the heart of who we are today.
After making our 1985 debut as the monochromatic White House boutique in Baltimore, we followed our fashion instincts and opened the similarly themed Black Market in 1995. In 1997, we combined our boutiques into one concept, and White House | Black Market was born. Throughout the journey, our passion has always been to make women feel beautiful. That's what we're about. And our clothing remains a symbol of who we are: the honest simplicity of black and white, and the remarkable individuality of the different styles we build from it.
Launched under the Chico's brand umbrella in 2004, Soma initially consisted of ten boutiques, each dedicated to offering supremely comfortable, high quality bras, panties, sleepwear and activewear in a welcoming environment.

Soma Intimates boutiques are designed to be a place where lingerie is not just beautiful and sensual, but luxuriously soft and comfortable, and a place where warm, personal service is the mantra.

Meeting electromagnetic interference (EMI) compliance regulations is a critical step in bringing products to market quickly. Wherever you are in the product development cycle, Agilent has an EMI measurement solution for you.
To avoid costly delays that can result from failed compliance testing, Agilent's EMI measurement application on X-Series signal analyzers allows you to perform pre-compliance measurements and diagnostic evaluation of your designs--so you can find and fix problems before they enter the test chamber.
In EMC compliance testing, your success depends on moving products through the test queue quickly and efficiently. Conduct full standards-compliant testing in accordance with CISPR and MIL-STD with the upgradeable N9038A MXE EMI receiver. For a complete EMI test solution, Agilent Solutions Partners provide a single point of contact for you to combine the MXE with chambers, antennas, software, value-added integration, probes, and more.
