A cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) smear is a microscopic examination of the normally clear fluid that moves in the space surrounding the spinal cord and brain. CSF protects the brain and spinal cord from injury.
Alternative Names
Spinal fluid smear; Cerebrospinal fluid smear
How the test is performed
A sample of CSF fluid is needed. This is usually done with a lumbar puncture. For information on how this procedure is performed, see spinal tap.
The sample is sent to a laboratory, where a tiny amount is spread on a glass slide. A member of the laboratory team looks at the sample under a microscope. The smear shows the color of the fluid and the number and shape of cells present in the fluid. Other tests, such as a Gram stain, may be done to check for bacteria.
How to prepare for the test
For information on how to prepare for the procedure to obtain the CSF sample, see spinal tap.
How the test will feel
The laboratory test is painless and does not involve the patient.
For information on how it will feel to have a sample of CSF fluid removed, see spinal tap.
Why the test is performed
The test is done to check for signs of infection in a sample of CSF.
Normal Values
Normal value ranges may vary slightly among different laboratories. Talk to your doctor about the meaning of your specific test results.
What abnormal results mean
If bacteria are present, that indicates bacterial meningitis. Other kinds of infections might include tuberculosis and fungal infections. Some bacteria or viruses can also be detected using special tests.
What the risks are
A laboratory smear poses no risk to the patient. For risks associated with the procedure done to get a CSF sample, see spinal tap.

Minnesota budget deficit pegged at $1.1B
Today's deficit forecast adds to a cloud of uncertainty hanging over the state budget because of action, or inaction, on federal budget issues.By: Don Davis, Forum Communications
ST. PAUL — Minnesota's budget will face a $1.1 billion shortfall, state officials announced this morning.
Details were to be released later, but Minnesota Management and Budget officials said that even with the projected budget deficit for the next two years, "current conditions will allow the state to reduce the K-12 education shift by $1.3 billion of the $2.4 billion outstanding but that improvement does not continue into next budget period."
Legislators and governors in recent years have delayed payments to schools to help solve state budget problems.
Under current law, surplus money in the two-year budget that ends June 30 must be used to repay schools. However, legislators could change that when they meet in session beginning Jan. 8.
Today's deficit forecast adds to a cloud of uncertainty hanging over the state budget because of action, or inaction, on federal budget issues.
With more than $500 billion in federal tax increases beginning Jan. 1 unless Congress and President Barack Obama act, the national economy could face a recession.
"So you are going to have to do something to stop the tax increases from coming about," Minnesota State Economist Tom Stinson said in an earlier interview. "You can't just say, 'We won't do anything and it will go way.' If you don't do anything you are over the cliff."
The impact could be gradual, Stinson said, but Americans would begin noticing the higher taxes in their first 2013 paychecks. If nothing is done, he said, consumers gradually will stop spending and businesses will hire fewer people.
"You get started on that vicious spiral," he said.
Gov. Mark Dayton last month said that while he must submit a budget proposal in January, he would be forced to revise it if the federal budget woes generally known as the "fiscal cliff" occur.
A new budget forecast is due out in late February or early March, which probably will mean that Dayton then would revise his budget. The 2013 legislative session begins Jan. 8, and relatively little budget-related work is expected in the first two months while lawmakers await the later budget report.
The budget forecast provides figures for state officials to craft a budget. The current two-year state budget spends $34 billion in state taxes and fees.
A budget must be in place by July 1 or there could be a government shutdown like in 2011.
Minutes after the deficit was announced, the state's largest government employee union asked for higher taxes.
"If Republicans are looking for massive spending cuts, they've already done that with a decade of disinvestment," Eliot Seide, director of AFSCME Council 5, said. "We need $6 billion to dig ourselves out of the hole and pay for the things Minnesotans care about — brainpower schools, middle-class jobs, safe transportation and property-tax relief."
To fund state spending, taxes will be debated.
There is widespread expectation that higher taxes, at least on the state's richest residents, will be favored by the new Democratic-Farmer-Labor Party legislative majority. Democratic Gov. Mark Dayton has been a strong advocate of that, and the 2013 Legislature will mark the first time in two decades that a governor of his party has had a DFL House and Senate.
While twice annual budget forecasts are reported as showing surpluses or deficits, the Minnesota Constitution does not allow a deficit. More accurately, the forecast shows what would happen to the state budget if the governor and lawmakers made no change from current law.
A budget surplus could have allowed more spending on other programs without raising taxes.
A deficit must be fixed by the state raising more revenue or cutting spending. Revenues may mean higher tax rates or eliminating what politicians call "loopholes," those tax cuts and credits politicians often approve to help certain classes of businesses and citizens.

I understand that both can be used in-conjunction with each other but has blood testing detected more than urine has? Since when the blood tested positive for Berto, Tarver, Peterson and Morales all there piss came back positive too. Blood been proven to be more effective?

i've had these conversations way more than i would like to admit...
basically...urine doesn't catch everything. the blood test detects way more. there is also the matter of the cell blood count to consider. more stringent testing is necessary because it is possible to benefit from p.e.d's outside of the 8 week window of a training camp..so year round testing is actually the best thing. cost should be considered because the state athletic commission doesn't have the funding necessary to keep it going year round. the promoters are too stingy to test at all...much less year round. i'm not sold on the benefits of usage to be honest. with all that is wrong with boxing....based on the times that i know boxers have tested positive...i don't really see amazing benefits. there are much more serious matters such as dehydration that have lead to death and serious injuries in boxing. correct me if i'm wrong...but i've not seen one single instance where a boxer knowingly tested positive and put someone in the hospital. |

Haven't we ALL had waaay too many PED conversations? They get more and more interesting every time though! Honestly, when I hear that a fighter's blood comes bad positive for PEDs, I could give a shit about urine. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/laugh.gif) |

Chef/owner Tony Chemmanoor is planning for a midweek soft opening, but the exact date hasn't been set, he said on the phone yesterday. He sounded ecstatic that he is finally able to re-open his popular Indian restaurant that was gutted by a five-alarm fire last December.
"It's been a roller-coaster ride," he said of the efforts to deal with the damages.
The new Indigma will be located across the street from the old building in Mt. Vernon. Tony said that people have already been knocking on the door to see if he's open. "It's a good thing that I have a big door," he quipped.
Of course, Facebook has been abuzz about the anticipated opening. Updates are also available on the restaurant's website.
Tony said he'd be able to give me a firm opening date on Monday.
Welcome back, Indigma. We've missed your excellent modern Indian cuisine.

With so many resources spent on social media marketing these days, the job of analyzing its effectiveness in the overall marketing mix is becoming more important.
If you're using Google Analytics to track your site's visitors and revenue, you'll notice that by default you can analyze traffic mediums such as direct, organic etc, but what about social networks as a standalone traffic medium?
To achieve this level of reporting in Google Analytics and to basically tweak Google Analytics to create this traffic medium, you've got two options.
Option 1: Create a standalone Google Analytics social networks traffic profile
1. Under 'Add Website Profile' in the main Google Analytics screen create a new website profile and name it 'social networks' (always keep your original profile intact)
2. Head to 'Filter Manager' in your profile to group all the different social networks to one new medium by applying the following filter
Filter Name - social networks traffic
Filter Type - custom filter then advanced
Field A -> Extract A - under campaign source add your social networks. For example, I've used:
Field B -> Extract B - none
Output To -> Constructor - campaign medium and name it social networks
Field A Required - yes
Field B Required - no
Override Output Field - yes
Case Sensitive - no
Result - now under traffic sources > medium you'll find a handy 'social networks' traffic medium source which includes all the social websites previously grouped together
3. Create another filter which will exclude other traffic sources
Filter Name - exclude other traffic sources
Filter Type - custom filter then exclude
Filter field - campaign medium
Filter Pattern - type organic|(none)|direct|cpc|image
Case Sensitive - no
4. Create another filter to show the full referral path by applying the following filter
Filter Name - full referral path
Filter Type - custom filter then advanced
Field A -> Extract A - choose referral and type (.*)
Field B -> Extract B - none
Output To -> Constructor - choose user defined and type $A1
Field A Required - yes
Field B Required - no
Override Output Field - yes
Case Sensitive - no
Result - now under visitors > user defined you'll find the precise profile or URL which is generating your traffic
Use this method to schedule a handy automated email so you'll get the full picture every morning
Option 2: Use advanced segment in Google Analytics
1. Head to 'Advanced Segments' in your main Google Analytics profile
2. Create a new segment and drag the 'source' box which under 'Traffic sources' to 'dimension or metric' window
3. Open the 'Condition' drop down and under '' paste the following sources:
(this field is limited to 256 characters)
4. Now you can start segmenting the data and compare your social networks traffic medium Vs. other traffic sources which are already segmented such as direct and organic traffic
You can use this method to compare your social networks traffic against other traffic sources by average basket size, conversion rate and much more. .

Excellent blinds and fantastic customer service
Review by confirmed purchaser
I ordered some of the PVC wood effect Venetian blinds and they arrived the next day. They were simple to fit once we worked out how to do it, and they are excellent quality. There was a minor problem with some of the toggles being damaged but when I contacted customer services, they couldn't have been more helpful - they ordered some new ones for me and they arrived within a couple of days. They then emailed me and phoned me to check I was happy - truly excellent customer service. I would definitely order more blinds from Gallery Blinds and I have already recommended them to more than one person!

Manfred Mohr is considered a pioneer of digital art. After discovering Prof. Max Bense's information aesthetics in the early 1960's, Mohr's artistic thinking was radically changed. Within a few years, his art transformed from abstract expressionism to computer generated algorithmic geometry. Encouraged by the computer music composer Pierre Barbaud whom he met in 1967, Mohr programmed his first computer drawings in 1969. |

Americus, Ga. - August, 16 2001 - Tom DeTitta said his experience as an overseas volunteer on a Habitat for Humanity home-build inspired him to write a play about Habitat homeowners, who rise out of their circumstances to overcome poverty and own their houses.
"Darkness Lifting" examines the lives, dreams and frustrations of five homeowners and their families in Fiji, Ghana, Mexico, Northern Ireland and the United States as they work with volunteers to build their homes. DeTitta says Habitat serves a vital function in that it introduces volunteers to people of different cultures and socioeconomic backgrounds.
"One thing that has become clear to me is that `help' is an interactive concept that masquerades as a uni-directional one," DeTitta said. "People who set out to help others and learn about a foreign culture discover new world in themselves."
Four actors play 26 parts, including Adrienne Reynolds, who, for example, portrays a 70-year-old grandmother and a 19-year-old woman living in Baltimore's inner city. Theresa Holmes, Frank Wiley, Jr. and Edd Key are also starring.
"The cross-section of people Habitat accesses is very dramatic. On one hand, the homeowners are often in difficult circumstances - sometimes desperate circumstances. Many have had past problems that were huge," the playwright said. "Habitat gets these people on an upswing. There's a problem and then there's the overcoming of the problem."
Eddie Lee is the play's director. He has worked in notable theaters all over the world, including The Kennedy Center in Washington, D.C. In addition to performing in "Darkness Lifting," Edd Key is also the play's musical director. His compositions help tie together the play, which takes place in five different countries and cultures.
"Darkness Lifting" will hold its world premier at 7:30 p.m. Sept. 7-8 at the Rylander Theater here. It's located a block away from Habitat for Humanity International's headquarters, where free entertainment will celebrate the play's opening on Saturday evening. The New Providence Baptist Choir will kick off the evening fun at 5 p.m., followed by Habitat's own Myra Hardy, Paul Mills and Friends, and Nashville recording artist Lynn Moon.
Celebrating its 25th Anniversary year, Habitat for Humanity International is an ecumenical Christian ministry dedicated to eliminating poverty housing. Founded by Millard Fuller, along with his wife, Linda, Habitat for Humanity International and its affiliates in more than 2,000 communities in 79 nations have built and sold more than 100,000 homes to partner families, who pay no-profit, zero-interest mortgages.
Tickets for the play are $10. Group discounts are available. Call the Rylander Theater at (229) 931-0001.

5 Reasons WWE's Biggest Star Should Turn Heel
By Bob Garman ,
It's time for a change in the WWE. John Cena, thought by many to be the face of World Wrestling Entertainment, has actually become the poster boy for all that is wrong with the company.
Ratings for WWE's flagship television show Monday Night Raw are down. Pay-per-view buys are also declining, and despite the company's strong presence in the social media, it's simply not cool to be a wrestling fan anymore.
Part of the reason for WWE's recent woes is that Cena, the top babyface in the company for roughly the past five years, isn't cool. Cena has no edge. He's cast as the ultimate underdog, fighting impossible odds to come out on top of whatever foe is pitted against him.
The truth is, the days when Cena was an underdog are long gone. Fans expect him to win, regardless of who or what he's facing. While Cena is still popular with women and young fans, the core of the wrestling audience, men ages 18-25, has largely tuned him out.
If WWE is going to return to its glory days of the Attitude Era, something drastic has to be done. Here are five reasons why John Cena needs to turn heel.
When Cena makes his entrance, the reaction at most venues is mixed and loud. Half the crowd is cheering delightedly, while the other half is booing its lungs out. Even Cena has acknowledged how easy it is to get the famous "Let's Go Cena-Cena Sucks!" chant going. He needs to turn the cheering half of the crowd against him.
As mentioned, Cena is still popular with young fans. No group will turn on a character faster than the youngsters. All it would take for a successful turn is for Cena to engage in activity that the kids in the audience won't stand for.
Kissing AJ Lee isn't the answer. Not only does it fail to give Cena any type of edge as a character, it likely fuels the fantasies of the young male fanbase. If young males felt any hatred for Cena during his "makeout session" on Monday Night Raw, it was only because they wished they were in his shoes.
Cena needs to do something shocking. He needs to attack Jerry Lawler, or send Mick Foley through the Spanish announcers' table. Something, anything unexpected, and completely villainous.
Then, he needs to take the microphone, and explain that he did what he did because he's sick and tired of being the "Rise Above" guy. He needs to say that he's done visiting hospitals and military bases. He needs to say he's fed up with being the good guy. Since it seems like the bad guys are the ones who are getting ahead lately, he's decided to join them.
The WWE needs some new stars at the top of the card. John Cena and Randy Orton have been in or near the title picture, both on Raw and SmackDown, for a long time. While heels seem to come and go, the babyface side of the coin always seems to feature Cena.
There's no better way for WWE to promote some new babyface stars than to have them face a heel John Cena. Beating the former alpha babyface would lend instant credibility to a whole new generation of good guys.
Cena, for all of his faults, generally provides good matches. Giving the rub to guys like Ryback, The Miz, Kofi Kingston or any new babyface the company is trying to promote would get the new guys over instantly.
A heel Cena also makes room on the roster for some of the current heels to switch gears. CM Punk is able to switch from face to heel in the span of one promo. He could easily jump back to the good guy side of the fence. So could younger hands like Dolph Ziggler, Wade Barrett and Antonio Cesaro.
If the company wants to build a new megastar, the best way to do it is to turn Cena heel and have the new chosen one feud with him.
Another good reason for John Cena to turn heel is that it will add a dimension to his character that has been lacking. A heel Cena could add depth to his personality.
CM Punk was an Internet darling but not thought of as a serious contender by the majority of the WWE Universe until his famous "work/shoot" promo on Monday Night Raw. It was with that promo that Punk, who spewed a lot of his actual frustration with the WWE, solidified himself as a true top star.
Cena is a good talker. He might not be in Punk's class, but he's smart, and he knows the game. Given a chance to cut loose, Cena might just cut a fantastic heel promo. Instead of the smiling, happy-go-lucky babyface that they've come to know, WWE fans might hear what Cena really thinks.
Rumor has it that Cena has been clashing with Vince McMahon backstage lately. Let him take some of that frustration out on the crowd. If it worked for Punk, it could work for Cena.
The biggest reason why Vince McMahon and his creative team haven't entertained the idea of a heel turn for Cena is because he sells more merchandise than any other WWE superstar, reportedly by a large margin.
There are red Cena shirts. There are purple ones. You can get them in orange, green, black, red and even pink. No matter what John Cena wears to the ring on a given night, you can bet that you'll see half the crowd in it by the end of the show.
If Cena, who only seems to be over with half of the crowd, were to turn heel, how many tee shirts do you think he'd sell?
Remember the NWO? There is still at least one fan in every WWE crowd wearing an NWO shirt. This is a faction that died out more than 10 years ago and was part of a rival company. A heel Cena would probably move even more shirts, hats, wristbands and garden gnomes than he does now.
Especially if none of the new gear was pink.
The very best reason for a Cena heel turn is that history has demonstrated that a turn can resuscitate a stagnant star.
In 1996, much of the wrestling world thought that Hulk Hogan was washed up. Hogan, who had been the face of the WWF for many years, simply wasn't getting the crowd reaction that he used to. His music would hit, and the familiar orange and yellow-clad Hulkster would come out to a collective yawn.
The fans had seen it all before. There were no new tricks in the Hulkamania bag.
Then, after signing with rival WCW, Hogan did the unthinkable. He turned heel. At the Bash at the Beach pay-per-view, Hogan came to the aid of Kevin Nash and Scott Hall, attacked Randy Savage and instigated the most shocking heel turn of all time. It was the birth of the NWO and the start of WCW's dominance over WWF.
Cena isn't as popular as Hogan, but a heel turn would still be earthshaking. Like Hogan in the mid-'90s, Cena is a tired act. He's beaten just about every opponent in the WWE worth wrestling, and has been the white knight for five or six years. There's nothing left in his bag of tricks as a babyface.
Turning heel might just revitalize John Cena, and the WWE. He'd have a whole new roster of babyfaces to terrorize, and his character could certainly use the change.
WWE seems to loathe the idea of turning Cena because of his popularity with the young fans. If a Hogan heel turn created a historic rise in business, a Cena turn could only help.

Electronic Drums Buying Guide
Just before Christmas, our Electronic Drums vs Acoustic Drum guide where we touched on the main differences between the two. In this series we'll take a look into the history of electronic drums and answer some key questions you need to consider when buying an electric drum kit; why you should choose an electronic drum kit over an acoustic; which drum kit is right for me? How do electronic drums work? What are drum monitor systems and what are the different pads in electronic drum kits for? Whether you are a complete beginner or a well established professional there are many variables to consider when purchasing a set of drums. Our ranges of drum sets cater to every different type of drummer and to every different skill level.
When electronic drums first surfaced in the 1980's their playability was nowhere near as good as that of their acoustic predecessors. The rubber pads used to trigger the drum sounds were very hard and playing them for a long period of time could actually cause quite a lot of pain to the user. The rebound from the pads was also nothing like playing an acoustic drum set, so the skill level of most drummers using electronic kits dropped drastically. This led to electronic drums not being taken seriously in the drumming community. In recent years though, electronic drum manufacturers such as Alesis, Roland and Yamaha have strived to mimic the feel of acoustic drums, and with great success. The rubber style pads used on electronic kits feel 100% better than when we first encountered them in the 80's and with the development of the new "mesh style" heads most drummers say that they can't find any difference between the feel of an acoustic drum head and the feel of electronic drums using mesh heads.
Why choose an electronic drum kit?
The main reason for most drummers to choose electric over acoustic is the noise factor. On an acoustic kit there are sound deadening options such as silencer pads and the use of brushes, but both of these do affect the sound of the kit and the rebound off the drum head. With today's electronic kits you can play pretty much silently by simply plugging your headphones into the sound module so the only noise created is that of the sticks hitting the pads. This way you get the full sound of the kit you are using without compromising on the rebound or feel of the drums.
When using an acoustic kit you are limited to what sound you can get out of it. There are options with tuning the drums slightly differently but in essence the kit you have bought is always going to sound like that kit. Electronic drums use a sound module to create a multitude of different drum sounds. Often referred to as the brain of the kit the sound module will come with lots of pre-programmed drum kits in it so while one minute you can be playing a heavy rock kit, at the touch of a button you can switch it to a jazz kit or even an electro voice kit. Some sound modules allow you to mix and match each different drum sound thus creating "user kits". Other sound modules go further still in their diversity of sounds. For example the sound module that comes with the 2box drum it 5 actually allows you to upload your own sounds into the module which gives the user endless options for creativity.
Acoustic kits take up a lot of space and unpacking and repacking them each time you use them is not very realistic. An equivalent electronic kit takes up much less space and most can be folded away with relative ease.
How do electronic drums work?
Each drum or cymbal pad on an electronic kit is linked to the brain by something called a trigger. These triggers are simply sensors that are activated when the surface they touch are struck by the drumstick. Pads and mesh heads used on electronic drums now can be single or dual trigger. Single trigger means the pad makes one noise no matter where or how hard you strike it. Dual trigger means that the sound produced by the head will be different depending on where you hit it or how hard you hit it. The rims of the drum heads are also usually active so when you strike them they will create a rim shot effect just like that on an acoustic kit. As soon as the trigger detects a strike it sends a message to the brain which in turn creates the respective drum sound and sends it to the monitoring system. This might sound like there should be a lag time between the user striking the pad and the sound being created through the monitor but in reality with today's modern triggering methods it is near impossible for the human ear to detect any kind of lag time.
Which kit is right for me?
If you are a beginner, then you might want to start off with one of our basic kits. Alesis have a fantastic array of kits ranging from basic budget kits to professional studio kits. The Alesis DM6 USB Express kit for example is very quick to set up and has 108 great sounding modern drum, cymbal and percussion sounds to create up to 15 total drum kits for the user! Our Dolphin Music exclusive DM6 bundle gives you all the accessories you need to get started for a great price of £349. At the other end of the scale the DM10 Studio Kit from Alesis is not only packed with all the goodies you might expect from a top end electronic kit but also a very reasonable price.

One of the biggest players in the electronic drum market is Roland who also has a large array of kits on offer that cover everything from the absolute beginner to the high end professional. Roland's HD-1 V-drum kit is a very compact yet versatile setup. The HD-1's simplicity of use is second to none and is equipped with an external cd or mp3 player input so the user can actually jam along with their favourite songs all for little more than £500. In comparison the Roland TD-30K V-Pro Kit for a little more than £3000 is aimed more at the high end professional. The TD-30 sound module is loaded with hundreds of expressive and diverse sounds at the touch of a button. Its fully tuneable mesh pads not only feel just like the real thing but are a lot more hardwearing than acoustic drum heads.

The Yamaha DTX400K uses voices from its big brother and sisters in the professional range of DTX kits - DTX900/700/500 and DTX-MULTI 12 - each kit has extremely high sound quality with "Accent Articulation" for dynamic instruments that change sound characteristics according to your hit velocity.

Roland are back in 2012 with the latest addition to their popular V-Drums range. The Roland HD-3 V Drums Lite is the powerful yet compact addition to the V Drum family. The HD3 V Drums Lite is the follow up to the hugely popular HD-1 V Drums Lite. Like its predecessor it has the smallest of footprints but the largest of sounds for the price. It is a very compact yet versatile setup. The HD-3's simplicity of use is again second to none and is equipped with an external cd or mp3 player input so the user can actually jam along with their favourite songs all for little more than £500.

Drum Monitor Systems
For an electronic drum kit to produce a sound the brain needs to be connected to some kind of amplifier. Amplifiers or monitor systems are specifically designed to create the tones needed for the instrument they are made for. In the same way you wouldn't hook a guitar up to a bass amp and vice versa, an electronic drum kit needs a system designed for its specific range of tones. Most electronic drum manufacturers will also make monitor systems sometimes designed for a specific kit or range of kits. But the most important factor is that the system is designed to amplify drums. Drum monitors are often wedge shaped so they can sit on the floor but face up towards the drummer. The reason for this is so the drummer can have the drum monitor close with the sound being projected directly to them so it can be heard in live and practice situations with a full band.

BRYAN, Texas—The 13th-ranked Texas A&M men's golf team carded a 1-over 361 on Sunday en route to a runner-up finish at the Aggie Invitational at Traditions Club.
The Aggies, who played well on the day but were unable to overcome a seven-shot deficit to start the morning, finished the weekend at 40-over par (378-381-361=1120) to end up in a second-place tie with top-ranked Texas (1120, +40). No. 8 Oregon won the team championship after shooting the best round of the day and closed the tournament at 29-over (376-376-357=1109).
"We were really solid today," head coach J.T. Higgins said. "We didn't lose the tournament today, we lost it yesterday. All the big numbers yesterday hurt. It was a lot of ground to try and make up and we didn't get off to a fast start. Oregon was just really patient, really disciplined—they were impressive. They did a great job today."
Oklahoma (+52) was a distant fourth, followed by Oklahoma State (+59), New Mexico (+68), Baylor (+71), Oregon State (+80), Texas Tech (+93) and Utah (+121). Medalist honors went to New Mexico's Victor Perez, who was the only player to break par this weekend after finishing with a 3-under 213 (73-71-69). His final round was the only sub-70 round turned in by any player.
Individually, senior Geoff Shaw paced the Aggies with a seventh-place finish after carding a 5-over 221 (77-73-71). Freshman Ty Dunlap placed 11th with an 8-over 224 (71-81-72), while junior Cameron Peck (73-76-77=226) finished in 15th at 10-over. Rounding out the A&M team contingent was redshirt freshman Greg Yates in 20th (81-77-70=228, +12), senior Jordan Russell in 24th (77-74-78=229, +13) and junior Case Cochran in 38th (80-81-71=232, +16). Sophomore Johannes Veerman was A&M's top individual with a 44th-place showing (77-77-81=235).
Texas A&M now turns its attention to the Big 12 Championships, which get underway next weekend at Whispering Pines in Trinity, Texas. The Aggies will then await word of their postseason fate and open NCAA Regional play in mid-May.
"We've got to get healthy, that's number one, and make sure Cam is ready to go," Higgins said. "We did better today. We didn't make the same mistakes we made yesterday. We have to be really stronger mentally for the postseason. We are a really solid team, but to try and win these next three tournaments we've got to be great. So we're going to have to be a lot tougher."

HSB Council debates litigationNovember 27, 2012, 7:50 pm by Alexandria Randolph
The new Horseshoe Bay City councilmembers Steve Jordan, David Pope and Craig Haydon went straight to business to discuss a litigation against the city in an executive session Tuesday afternoon. The litigation was filed in the U.S. District Court in the Austin Division of the Western District of Texas by the J.S. Haren Company, a building contractor company based in Athens, Tenn., which rebuilt the Slick Rock lift station in Horseshoe Bay. "The company worked with the city on a utilities project, said Tom Robertson, partner of the city attorney Rex Baker following the meeting. "This was a pay dispute... No one related to the litigation was present (at the meeting). According to Mayor Bob Lambert, the suit was over $58,000 that the company believes they are owed by the city for the work done. "We obviously dont feel that we owe them that, said City Manager Stan Farmer. The council also discussed the request by Mid-Com Management, owner of a 113-acre lot at the intersection of RR 2147 and TX 71, for annexation and a variance from the Extension of the Utility Main ordinance. "The city has an ordinance called the Extension of the Main ordinance that would require the developer to pay the cost of extending water and waste water facilities from the closest city facilities to this property, said Lambert. "I understand thats going to cost somewhere in the magnitude of $600,000. Mid-Com, as I understand it, has requested that the city pay that rather than Mid-Com. |

Northwestern Health-Care Facility Wins Vista Award
Health-care architect Anshen+Allen received the 2009 Vista Award, along with hospitality specialist WATG and builder Turner Construction Company.
Nicholas Tamarin -- Interior Design, 4/16/2009 12:00:00 AM
You couldn't blame the team at Sacred Heart Medical Center at RiverBend for bragging—the brand-new facility in Springfield, Oregon just claimed this year's Vista Award for New Construction, an annual prize bestowed by the American Society of Healthcare Engineering.
Architects Anshen+Allen and WATG, and builder Turner Construction Company, are the triumphant triumvirate behind the $547 million, 1.2 million-square-foot complex. But sharing in the victory is PeaceHealth Oregon Region, Sacred Heart's parent, which asked hospital staff and community members to be part of the design process. More than 500 physicians, nurses and caregivers responded, and together they formed more than 60 planning teams. "Working together, we had the chance to turn an empty field in a uniquely beautiful location into an integrated, technologically advanced hospital that will redefine health-care design and patient care," says PeaceHealth CEO, Mel Pyne.
Intended to evoke the grand lodges of the Pacific Northwest, the brick complex sits on 181 acres, framed by rolling hills, groves of Douglas fir trees, a meadow, and the McKenzie River. Visitors are greeted by a stone-and-timber porte-cochere that leads to a two-story atrium. With a stone fireplace as its center, the atrium also features an expansive skylight, a grand staircase and an open-beam ceiling made with repurposed wood from the few Douglas firs that were sacrificed during construction.
The interior detailing—custom handcrafted iron and brass railings, custom lighting, natural stone masonry and porcelain tile—is carried throughout the facility, from registration areas and nursing stations to patient rooms and dining facilities. Even the emergency room can't escape residential touches. "You don't feel that you're in a hospital," says Anshen+Allen principal Todd Tierney. "The idea is to provide health-care without it feeling institutionalized."

The Brooklyn Nets held a news conference and pep rally Friday to introduce Joe Johnson, who was traded from the Atlanta Hawks and Deron Williams, who signed a new five-year contract with the team. NY1's Roger Clark filed the following report.
It was a celebration as the Nets proclaimed loudly that they have officially arrived in Brooklyn.
"We need you," said head coach Avery Johnson. "We need you at the games. We need you watching the games on TV. We need your support."
The team has a new look and will play its first season in the borough at Barclays Center starting in the fall after more than three decades as the New Jersey Nets.
The pep rally was also an opportunity to welcome the newest Net, all-star guard Joe Johnson, picked up in a trade from the Atlanta Hawks.
"I think we have a great upside with this team," Johnson said. "We've got a lot of great pieces."
One of those pieces is Nets All-Star guard Deron Williams, who the team recently re-signed.
"You can just feel the energy these fans have, that the organization has for this move," he said. "It's kinda like a new start, a fresh start and I'm excited to see where this team can go."
Brooklyn Borough President Marty Markowitz said the sky is the limit.
"Our Brooklyn Nets have their new Brooklyn swagger and the Nets are going all the way," he said.
Fans on hand for the festivities said they were already looking forward to catching the team in action when they hit the court.
"Now we have our team and we're showing Brooklyn is Brooklyn, USA," one fan said.
"Brooklyn needed something like this," said another. "You know, it's been a long time coming."
Markowitz proclaimed Friday Deron Williams and Joe Johnson day. The celebration afterwards featured an old Brooklyn favorite, Junior's Cheesecake.
