California Proposition 4, Parental Notification for Minor's Abortion (2008)
Had it passed, it would have added a new amendment to the California Constitution.[2],[3],[4]
The initiative petition would prohibit abortion for unemancipated minors until 48 hours after physician notifies minor's parent, legal guardian or, if parental abuse has been reported, an alternative adult family member.
- See also: La Propuesta 4 de California

The official summary provided to describe Proposition 4 said:
- Changes California Constitution to prohibit abortion for unemancipated minor until 48 hours after physician notifies minor's parent or legal guardian.

- Provides notification exceptions for medical emergency or parental waiver.
- Permits courts to waive notice based on clear and convincing evidence of minor's maturity or best interests.

Arguments in favor of Prop. 4
Notable arguments that have been made in favor of Prop. 4 include:
- When a minor obtains an abortion without the knowledge of a family member or guardian, her health can be endangered if health complications arise after the abortion. Prop 4 is named after a 15 year old minor, Sarah, who died after receiving a botched abortion. Family is needed to assist with medical history and appropriate after care.[17]
- If a minor becomes pregnant because of sexual violence or predation, a sexual predator may be missed, because the abortion clinic may not report the sexual crime. Although clinics are mandated reporters of abuse, repeated cases of sexual predators concealing crimes through secret abortions reveals a broken system in CA and the need for family notification.
As of September 27, 2008, the six largest donors to Prop. 4 are:
- James Holman, $1,525,590. (Of this, $1.35 million is listed as a loan.)[18]
- Don Sebastiani, $530,000.[19]
- Knights of Columbus, $200,000.
- Life Legal Defense Foundation, $50,000.
- The Lenawee Trust, $100,000.
- The Caster Family Trust, $100,000.
Opposition to Prop. 4
The Campaign for Teen Safety is the official ballot committee against the proposition.
- American Academy of Pediatrics, California District
- American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists, District IX
- California Academy of Family Physicians
- California Family Health Council
- California Nurses Association
- California School Counselors Association
- California Teachers Association
- Planned Parenthood Affiliates of California
- California NOW
- Equality California
- The Let California Ring coalition[20]
Arguments against Prop. 4
Notable arguments that have been made against Prop. 4 include:
- Mandated parental notification laws don't work. No law can mandate family communication.
- Some teenagers can't go to their parents because they fear being kicked out of the house, beaten, or worse.
- Prop 4 may force these teens to delay medical care, turn to self-induced abortions, or consider suicide.
- If a teen chooses to go to another adult, her parents would automatically be reported to authorities and an investigation would ensue.[21]
The No on 4 campaign has hired the Dewey Square Group[22] as a consultant.[23]
Donors to opposition
As of September 27, some of the top donors to the opposition campaign were:
- A number of different Planned Parenthood affiliates, including the Los Angeles, Mar Monte, Orange, Riverside, San Bernardino, San Diego, Santa Barbara, Shasta Diablo and Pasadena offices, $4,485,000
- California Teachers Association, $450,000.
- California Family Health Council, $80,000.
- Committee for a New Economy, $25,000.
- ACLU, Northern California, $50,000.
- ACLU, Southern California, $10,000.
- Susan Orr, $100,000.
- John Morgridge, $100,000.[24],[25]
Lawsuit filed over Prop. 4 language
Planned Parenthood Affiliates of California and others filed a lawsuit with the Sacramento County Superior Court in early August to strike out all references to "Sarah" and "Sarah's Law" and "other misleading language in the voter's guide" for Proposition 4. The title "Sarah's Law" refers to the case of 15-year-old "Sarah" who died as a result of an abortion in 1994. Proposition 4's ballot language in the official voter's guide suggests that "Sarah" might have been saved had her parents known about her abortion. Opponents of Proposition 4 argue that "Sarah" was not considered a minor in Texas, where the abortion was performed, and that she already had a child with a man who claimed to be her common law husband. Opponents asked that the references to Sarah to be stricken; however, proponents argued the name "Sarah" was given to the minor in her court case. Proponents of Prop 4 therefore claim they reference her as "Sarah," remaining consistent with the court filings to protect the identity of a minor who died as a result of a botched abortion. Proponents also argued that Sarah obtained her abortion as a self-identified 15 year old, single girl. Opponents were unable to provide evidence of the common law marriage. Therefore, Sarah's Law would have applied to the teen. Medical experts in her case stated has someone in her family known about the abortion, her life could have been saved.[26]
Judge Michael Kenny of the Sacramento Superior Court ultimately ruled against the opponents, allowing the original proposed ballot language and arguments, including references to Sarah, to stay in the official California voter's pamphlet. Opponents to the measure have been unable to provide evidence of notification laws causing real harm to minors.
- See also Polls, 2008 ballot measures.
The Field Poll has conducted and released the results of three public opinion polls on Proposition 4, in July, August and September.[27],[28],[29]
Mark DiCamillo, director of the polling agency, said he believes the current version is running stronger because Latinos overwhelmingly favor it and are expected to vote in higher-than-usual numbers in November.[30]
Month of Poll | Month of Poll | In Favor | Opposed | Undecided |
July 2008 | Field | 48 percent | 39 percent | 13 percent |
August 2008 | Field | 47 percent | 44 percent | 9 percent |
September 2008 | Field | 49 percent | 41 percent | 10 percent |
Oct 12-19, 2008 | PPIC | 46 percent | 44 percent | 10 percent[31] |
Nov. 1-2 | SurveyUSA | 40 percent | 46 percent | 14 percent[32] |
Editorial opinion
"Yes on 4"
"No on 4"
- The Los Angeles Times encouraged a "no" vote on 4, saying, "If this measure passes, some girls will seek out illegal abortions rather than notify their parents."[35]
- The San Francisco Chronicle was opposed, writing, "Family communication cannot be forged by government edict, and reckless teen behavior will not be deterred by merely making abortion more difficult."[36]
- The San Francisco Bay Guardian called the measure "horrible" and "another erosion of abortion rights".[37]
Path to the ballot
- See also: California signature requirements
As an initiated constitutional amendment, 694,354 signatures were required to qualify Proposition 4 for the ballot.
The signature-gathering drive to qualify Proposition 4 for the ballot was conducted by Bader & Associates, Inc., a petition management company owned by Tom Bader and Joy Bader, at a cost of $2.555 million.[38]
Prior attempts at passage
Proposition 4 marked the third time that California voters considered the issue of a parental notification/waiting period for abortion. The two previous, unsuccessful, initiatives were Proposition 85 (2006) and Proposition 73 (2005).
When Proposition 73 lost in 2005, some supporters thought that a similar measure would fare better in a general election. However, Proposition 85 did worse. Unlike 85 or 73, the Sarah's Law initiative petition allows an adult relative of the minor seeking an abortion to be notified, if the minor's parents are abusive.
Camille Giulio, a spokeswoman for the pro-4 campaign, said that the campaign believed that the November 2008 election was a better opportunity to pass a parental notification law because:
- There would be a higher voter turnout in November 2008 than when 85 and 73 were voted on.
- Socially conservative voters will be motivated to come to the polls to vote in favor of the much higher profile Proposition 8. While at the polls, they are likely to also vote in favor of 4.
- The two previous campaigns were narrow defeats in low budget campaigns.[39]

By Pretty good runner (San Diego, CA) on Sep 17, 2009
Comments: I thought I was in good shape until I did this workout. It took me about 4 weeks (3 days a week) to complete one of the workouts w/o modifying the speed or incline. But I saw results in the first week or so, so you can't argue with results. I recommend this for runners that train for more than 40 mins and don't mind hills. I'm 195lbs and run a 7 min. mile for 3 miles. This workout has given me more endurance and I lost 4 lbs in the first week. It's good stuff.
Get started on your way to a newer, slimmer you! With every iFIT® Weight Loss Workout Card you get an 8-week weight-loss program that is designed by a Certified Personal Trainer to help you burn calories and drop pounds.

Well, Wiggle are a bit shocked and offered to send me out a free replacement chain. They contacted Shimano and Shimano are not admitting they have a problem, so I politely declined the offer of a free chain and stated that I wouldn't be buying or accepting free Shimano chains until they recognise that there is an issue with chains having such a short lifespan (in anybody's book).
So BIG KUDOS to Wiggle...they know how to look after their customers.
BIG RASPBERRY to Shimano who think they are too big to care.

friends of the earth korea: campaign against nuclear energy
91% Koreans say nuclear is not the alternative
Nuclear power is becoming more popular as governments seek to break their oil addiction. However, it is not a clean alternative. Dangerous and long lasting waste products have to be dumped somewhere, threatening communities for hundreds of years to come.
Residents of Buan county in Korea are facing just such a threat, a huge dump for nuclear waste. On February 14th they held a referendum on whether or not to accept the dump. 50,000 voters out of a total population of about 70,000 participated in the vote. 91% voted against the dump.
Resistance within Buan to the dump has been enormous. Candlelight vigils have been held for more than 200 days. Elementary, middle and high school students went on strike for 41 days, blocking roads. In addition, there were several demonstrations in which more than 20,000 residents participated.
Ultimately, the Minister of Commerce, Industry and Energy resigned after making apologies to the Buan residents for damages, and he recognized the referendum as an important process to decide upon a nuclear dump site.
Although the Korean government says that it will not accept the result, it will be very hard to ignore the will of the residents. The Buan referendum 2004 made a new page not only in the history of the Korean movement against nuclear energy, but also in the history of Korean democracy.

Asia-Pacific gateways have once again shone in ACI's annual Airport Service Quality (ASQ) customer satisfaction survey, occupying the top spots in all the global by size categories.
Caroline Cook finds out more about the launch of a new global initiative designed to showcase the efforts airports are making to improve the passenger experience.
Airports Council International (ACI) and the International Air Transport Association (IATA) have signed a MoU to develop Smart Security (SmartS).
Airports Council International (ACI) has posted traffic results, showing that global passenger traffic continued along its growth path in October, increasing 4.9% year-on-year.
The 2013 SITA Airport IT Trends Survey says airports will increase their investment in information technology to $6 billion this year.
The Airport Carbon Accreditation programme set up by trade body ACI has been named as one of the top three low carbon economy projects in Europe.
May was a banner month for the world's busiest passenger airports, with 18 of the top 20 gateways experiencing a year-on-year rise in traffic, according to ACI World.
ACI has honoured recipients of its annual 2012 Airport Service Quality (ASQ) Awards at the ACI Europe and World Annual Congress and Exhibition in Istanbul.
The 9th Annual ACI Europe Best Airport Awards were announced last night during the opening reception of the joint ACI Europe and ACI World Annual Congress and Exhibition in Istanbul.

Rated 5 out of 5 by Marina56 Put Your Hotel Woes to Rest!
My second visit to the Sheraton Tarrytown Hotel earned me yet another delightful stay! And it all began right there at the front desk, which has the potential to make or break the overall hotel experience. Affable, smart, courteous and competent, cool under pressure, and helpful front desk attendant (s), made me feel like a valued guest! From start to finish truly a home away from home encounter. I highly recommend this hotel to anyone seeking a temporary retreat and a relaxed and tranquil getaway from the cares of the day. Or a beleaguered corporate traveler seeking rest and refreshment from the face-paced business world! a welcome addition to a traveler's itinerary!
P.S. Housekeeping staff were not only pleasant but only too happy to offer assistance when needed!

They were very patient when I had trouble with CC. They fixed the drain when the stopper became stuck in closed position. They took care of the "elephants playing basketball" in the room above us.
The room was clean, no bedbugs and the staff were helpful.
My only wish was a complimentary breakfast instead of having to upgrade $20 to get breakfast "included".

Rated 5 out of 5 by livinginclouds Very Comfortable
The staff was friendly and courteous in accommodating our large group. I enjoyed how easy it was to get to the train station to go into New York City. The pool is small but the spa was a treat. The bed was so comfortable and the hotel was very quiet - I never heard anyone else. My only complaints were that the elevators were so slow in arriving and i would recommend that coffee be served in the lobby on the weekends. It was too bad that breakfast was not included with the room but we found a wonderful diner just down the road.

Thank you everyone for the well wishes. I'm sure many of you will someday enjoy the same milestone.
Theresa did not want to go out to dinner, or do anything special at all. She wanted a quiet evening at home, and that's what she almost got. I was sitting there watching the 6:30 Evening News, when there is a banshee scream behind me followed by "Get it off, Oh GOD get it off me!" Boldly springing into action, I think to myself, "WTF has she gotten herself into now?" I turn around and she's sitting in the over-sized easy chair, double death grip on the arms, and her chin is caving in her throat as she looks down at the yellow fuzzy caterpillar that is crawling up her chest. I grabbed that poor thing, took it outside, let it go in the grass, and laughed my ass for about 15 minutes. Nobody said anything when I came back in but you know I was BMOC to all concerned.
Congrats George, and please pass to your wife. She probably had the harderst part in this deal.
I'm hitting 27 this year. Time really flies.

The space in which you live is an expression of your individual style - and at the very heart of your home is the fireplace.
The fireplace is a focal point that family and friends will gather around. It also offers you the opportunity to make a design statement that marks out the room even when the fire is not lit.
Many of today's contemporary fires, whether gas-fired or woodburning, are designed to fit into an existing chimney breast or specially built studwork structure. Accordingly the wall itself can be used to enhance still further the impressive appliance you have already chosen.

Preamble:The United Nations Volunteers (UNV) programme is the UN organization that promotes volunteerism to support peace and development worldwide. Volunteerism can transform the pace and nature of development and it benefits both society at large and the individual volunteer. UNV contributes to peace and development by advocating for volunteerism globally, encouraging partners to integrate volunteerism into development programming, and mobilizing volunteers.In most cultures volunteerism is deeply embedded in long-established, ancient traditions of sharing and support within the communities. In this context, UN Volunteers take part in various forms of volunteerism and play a role in development and peace together with co-workers, host agencies and local communities.In all assignments, UN Volunteers promote volunteerism through their action and conduct.

We will celebrate the many achievements of our graduating students at Commencement on Sunday, December 15, 2013 at 2:00 pm. at the Gannon Hammermill Center. The Commencement ceremony is the highlight of the fall semester for the University community, and we are looking forward to celebrating this wonderful event with you. Please review carefully the information on this website in preparation for Commencement weekend and retain all information for reference as the event draws closer.
It is a Gannon tradition that we personalize the Commencement ceremony by announcing the name of each graduate. Although this tradition takes time, the special recognition of each graduate symbolizes Gannon's commitment as a student-centered university. It communicates value and affection for each individual and family. Accordingly, graduates and members of the audience are asked to remain in their seats throughout the ceremony so that they do not interfere with the special moments of others.
Professional photographers will be present to photograph each graduate. A video will also be available for purchase (order form was mailed with invitation). To avoid congestion and to maintain decorum during the ceremony, friends and family members are asked to refrain from approaching the stage to take pictures. After the recessional, when all graduates have left the commencement area, graduates and their families are welcome to return to the stage to take pictures. It should be noted that the Gannon monument alongside Old Main has become a very popular site for commencement pictures.
Do you have a family member or guest that will need disabled seating accommodations? Please call the Provost's office at (814) 871-7401.
We look forward to celebrating Commencement with you. The entire Gannon community is grateful and proud that you have allowed us to be a part of your lives, and we wish you God's blessing for the future.
Tickets are not required for the Commencement ceremony or for any other event. Seating for all of the activities is on a first come, first served basis.
Baccalaureate Mass The Baccalaureate Mass is a celebration of the University Community. On this occasion we thank God for all that our graduates have accomplished. We ask for God's continued guidance upon their futures. Graduates, families and friends are invited to this liturgy.

Advising and the Student Faculty Relationship
Since the study for a research degree involves cooperation between the student and the lead advisor, the advising process takes on a critical role.
It is the lead advisor's responsibility to:
- give guidance about: the nature of research and the standard expected, the planning of the research program, literature and sources, any required attendance at taught classes and requisite techniques;
- maintain contact through regular meetings with the student;
- be accessible to the student at other appropriate times when advice may be needed;
- give detailed advice on necessary completion dates for successive states of work so that the whole may be submitted within the scheduled period;
- request written work as appropriate and return such work with constructive criticism in a timely manner;
- arrange for students to talk about their work with other students and staff and to have practice in oral examinations;
- ensure that the student is made aware of any inadequacy in progress or of failure to reach an acceptable standard.
It is the student's responsibility to:
- discuss with their advisors the type of guidance and comment that they find most helpful;
- take the initiative in raising problems or difficulties, however basic they may seem;
- maintain the progress of the work in accordance with the stages agreed upon with the lead advisor, including in particular the presentation of written material as required in sufficient time to allow for comments and discussion before proceeding to the next stage;
- provide annually a brief formal report to the IPC through the lead advisor;
- decide on a date for submission, having taken into account the lead advisor's opinion.

'92 Vandal football team to be honored
Vandalia Community High School will honor its 1992 football team prior to this season's first home game on Aug. 24.
All team members, managers and cheerleaders are invited to attend the pregame ceremony, which will be followed by Vandalia vs. Gillespie at 7 p.m.
For those wishing to attend, contact coach John Stout for more information at firstname.lastname@example.com.
Vandalia Mutual Insurance agreed to sponsor the Vandalia High School baseball diamond for the next 10 years. The company's sponsorship sign was recently installed above the scoreboard in right field.
The Vandalia High School alumni softball team recently played its second exhibition doubleheader against the high school team, sweeping the Lady Vandals for the second time.
Jr. Legion division tourney this weekend
The Jr. Legion division tournament will be played at Vandalia High School this weekend.
Post 95 received an automatic bid the tournament, and will play Belleville at 7:30 p.m. on Saturday. The winner of that game advances to play on Sunday at 6:30 p.m., while the loser will play at 1:30 p.m. on Sunday.
The double-elimination tournament runs through Monday, with the possibility of continuing on Tuesday.
VCHS grad accepts head coaching job
The major highlights of Dathan Berning's final season as a Vandalia High School athlete came during the basketball season, but that didn't stop the 2012 graduate from pursuing a college opportunity in a different sport.
Vandalia's boys basketball most valuable player this past season, Berning probably could have tried to show off his skills to earn a spot on a small school's team, but he instead decided to continue focusing on baseball, and that landed him a spot at Greenville College.
Rising Vandalia senior Blake Swofford is an alternate for a national golf tournament after last Thursday placing fourth at the Trusted Choice Big "I" Junior Classic state tournament.
Swofford placed fourth in the state tournament at Lick Creek Golf Course in Pekin, shooting a two-day, 36-hole total of 148 and defeating Zach Burry in a playoff.
The top three in the tournament qualified for the national tournament, which will be held at the University of Texas Golf Club in Austin from Aug. 7-10.
Vandalia's Sr. Legion team rebounded from its tough ouster at the Mattoon Firecracker Classic with a pair of wins over the weekend.
Now, the focus will be on taking that momentum into the district tournament, which begins at 11 a.m. on Saturday in Vandalia.
"If we keep playing the way we are playing, I really think that we are capable of beating anybody," said coach Andy Rincker of his 14-9 squad. "We are at least six deep on the mound, but it's all going to come down to how we swing the bats."
The Vandalia softball team pounded out double-digit run totals in both games of a doubleheader against St. Elmo last Thursday, picking its first two wins of the summer.
"It feels better to win," said coach Brian Buscher
A winning streak would not ensue, however, as the Lady Vandals were swept by Greenville on Tuesday, 18-5 and 25-11.
After allowing eight runs in the top of the first inning of game one, the Lady Vandals stormed back to win, 14-12.
In game two, Vandalia took a 9-0 lead after three innings of a 12-6 victory.
Two rising seniors at Vandalia Community High School have been finding success on the Southern Illinois Golf Association Junior Tour this summer.
Blake Swofford and RaeChelle Leiken have a combined seven tournament wins in nine chances this summer.
Most recently, each won in the 16-18 age division at the Gambit Junior Cup in Vienna by shooting a round under par, and Leiken won the Jackson Junior Tournament in Murphysboro on Monday, with an 82.
Two South Central High School graduates have started their seasons in professional rookie leagues.
Tanner Bushue and Spencer Patton opened their seasons in late June, but have both struggled thus far.
Bushue, a Houston Astros prospect who was demoted from the Class A Lexington Legends in May, was 0-2 with a 4.70 earned-run average in four relief appearances for the Greeneville Astros, who are based in Greeneville, Tenn.
He has struck out six in 7 2/3 innings pitched.

CHARLESTON, W.Va. -- Joy Curry was looking for a way to honor her mother's memory when she stumbled onto a business last year.
Her mother, Brenda Counts, died of ovarian cancer last fall. Curry, 32, was looking for an ovarian cancer awareness ribbon to attach to her mother's gravesite.
Curry found flags and magnet ribbons, but no lawn ornaments. She couldn't find any businesses online that offered what she was looking for.
"My husband said, 'I can make that,'" Curry said. "I thought, this is awesome, so he painted some more."
The ribbons have become the basis of her business, which she simply calls "Metal Ribbons."
Each of the handmade lawn ornaments is painted with the colors and design of the customer's choice: Purple for Alzheimer's disease awareness, red for heart disease, yellow for childhood cancer, and so forth.
"We can make any color that's recognized as national awareness," Curry said.
The 18-inch by 10-inch ribbons come with a stand that can be set in the ground. They can also be fixed to gravesites.
"I think [the ribbons] help people raise awareness," Curry said. "We had some people give them as gifts. Someone gave [one] to their 12-year-old niece. That kind of made me sad."
Curry said she's selling the ribbons not only as a way to make a profit, but also as a way to help people remember and honor their loved ones. The motto of the business is to honor, remember and support someone close to you, she said.
A portion of the proceeds from each of the ribbons benefits an organization that supports the cause.
While Curry's husband, Brian Curry, made the first one, she now pays a friend to make and paint them.

Freshmen Bernard Thompson (Conyers, Ga./Rockdale County HS) and Dante Holmes (Baltimore, Md./St. Frances/Oldsmar Christian) each had 16 points, while sophomore Christophe Varidel (Versoix, Switzerland/Worcester Academy) did the same off the bench with a trio of three-pointers.
Thompson, Holmes and Brett Comer (Winter Park, Fla./Winter Park HS) were part of a three-member freshmen starting backcourt that went for 41 points, 11 assists and six steals. Holmes (6-11) and Thompson's (6-13) 16 points came on similar stat lines, while Comer had nine points, seven assists and three steals.
Toledo was led by its starting freshman point guard Julius Brown, who poured in a game-high 29 points on 10-of-15 from the field, including 7-of-11 from three-point land, to go along with seven assists. Team leading scorer and rebounder Rian Pearson finished with 11 points and 12 rebounds for his third double-double of the season.
The two teams essentially traded baskets over the five-minute duration leading up to the final minute, as the lead changed hands twice with five ties during that span. The final tie of the game came with 1:21 remaining on a layup by Toledo's Curtis Dennis that made it 80-80.
After Murray's fifth offensive rebound of the game kept possession with the Eagles, Holmes was fouled on a drive to the basket following a called timeout by head coach Andy Enfield. Holmes calmly sank both free throws to give FGCU an 82-80 lead.
A missed three-pointer by Brown was followed by Comer making 1-of-2 free throws to keep it a one-possession game, at 83-80. A missed three-point attempt by Toledo was then rebounded by sophomore Chase Fieler (Parkersburg, W. Va./Parkersburg South HS), who was quickly fouled by the Rockets. Fieler's bid to make it a two-possession contest at the free throw line failed, but Toledo's two opportunities to tie the game from long range in the final seconds both missed.
It marked the sixth time this season FGCU has played in a game decided by five points or less, but was the first time it came out victorious.
The start was the fifth straight for Murray, who played more minutes than normal due to senior Kevin Cantinol (Guadeloupe, French West Indies/Calvary Christian/Ole Miss) missing the game after being issued a flagarant-2 foul against Nebraska on Dec. 7. Murray's 14 caroms accounted for 41 percent of the team's 34 on the night. The Eagles also finished with a positive assist/turnover ratio (17/13) for the second time this season and turned 12 offensive rebounds into 13 second chance points.
Toledo jumped out to a 14-8 lead just four minutes into the game by knocking down its first six shots from the field, including trio of three-pointers. Brown began his 14-point first half with a pair of threes during the Rockets' hot start.
The Eagles quickly joined the early half scoring frenzy by reeling off a 23-6 run that only took six minutes and ended with the home team holding a 31-20 edge at the 10-minute mark. Toledo's hot start was cooled by six turnovers and 2-of-7 shooting during FGCU's six-minute run, while the Eagles scored on 10 of 13 possessions. Six different players scored during the spurt, led by five each from the international combo of Varidel and Filip Cvjeticanin (Zagreb, Croatia/American School of Madrid).
FGCU's lead grew to as large as 14, 46-32, on Holmes' layup that gave him 12 points with 47 seconds left, but a Toledo three made it a 46-35 game at the half. The Green and Blue's 46 points were a first half season-high, coming on 19-of-35 from the field and 17 points off Toledo turnovers.
The Rockets' comeback was fueled by cutting down on their turnovers, as they committed just one over the opening 10 minutes of the second half. As a result, Toledo erased the double-digit halftime deficit by the 10-minute mark by out-scoring the Eagles 26-14 to take its first lead, 61-60, in over 23 minutes of game action.
