This is the second of four previews for the EuroBasket 2013 which will start next week. Group B is interesting because of its geopolitical makeup: Four of the six competing nations - Bosnia & Herzigovina, Serbia, Montenegro and Macedonia - have once been part of the Republic of Yugoslavia. The other two, Latvia and Lithuania have gained their independece from the Soviet Union. Lots of potential for animosities, sympathies and a very special rematch between Lithuania and Macedonia.
You can look up the competition format here. Group stage one is played with 6 teams per group and 3 teams advancing to the second group stage. There, 4 teams advance to the playoffs.

Bosnia's team has one superstar who stands out in European basketball: Mirza Teletovic. Okay, don't laugh now. Right, he had a forgettable campaign with the Nets, but make no mistake – in Europe, Mirza is an offensive monster that can be contained by few defenses, even if he is the only option on a squad like Bosnia's. Being the qualification tournaments second best scorer with 24.3 points, Teletovic led Bosnia to its second EuroBasket in a row.
Offensively, Mirza has two capable sidekicks in 23-year old Nihad Djedovic and Texas-born Zackary Wright. Standing at only 6'6", Djedovic is a versatile do-it-all forward who is extremely dangerous in the open court and as a slasher (159 FGA, 126 FTA's !! this seasons), also a strong rebounder for his size and can create decently well for others. Djedovic has been on the NBA radar forever but went undrafted in 2013 despite a solid showing in domestic competition for German powerhouse Alba Berlin. A reduced role offensively and a down year in perimeter shooting (especially evident in Euroleague competition where he shot 26.5 % from 3) might have broken his chances of securing a spot on a NBA team for now.
Zack Wright is a point guard with great size (6'5") who lacks range but does a lot of other things extremely well. He is a very strong rebounder (7 rebounds per contest in qualification tournament), is hard to stop going to the rim (58% 2FG this season) and is just a solid pass-first guard even though being a little careless with the ball.
Bosnia lacks the spacing to give Wright and Djedovic the ideal situation for their slashing and cutting. Teletovic is the only constant offensive threat from outside and turnover-prone center Kikanovic's offensive game has stalled out after strong years while being 19/20 years old. Muhamad Pasalic can be an excellent spot-up shooter and the question whether Wright and Djedovic can be effective might linger on his ability to find and make open shots. Offensively, Kikanovic is a nice complement to Teletovic as far as spacing goes since Elemedin is a good finisher around the rim and can carry a nice usage, but he's a weak rebounder and the fact that Teletovic is playing away from the basket might make it hard for Bosnia to get second chances.
Bosnia is not deep at all after the starting group of Teletovic, Djedovic and Wright. Nemanja Gordic is a nice player without much range, Sutalo is a big time terrible chucker from 3, Persic plays in the weak domestic league, Masic is a back-up on a weak Croatian team.
The center position might still be controversial. Kikanovic is clearly the most talented of the bigs but his weak rebounding and frame might push Edin Bavcic to play there a lot if the offense is not efficient enough on first attempts. As far as I know, EuroBasket will be the national debut for Andrija Stepanovic and due to his first class rebounding he might even become a domestic shooting star. Bosnia also features the tournament's tallest player in Sinanovic who is 7'3" and not much else (okay, rebounds well too).
The roster is not ideal and Bosnia should not be much of a factor again, especially in a strong group. Offensively, this team is about 70% Teletovic, so it sure doesn't help that he had a very frustrating, embarassnig season in the NBA.

Notable youngsters: Vytenis Cizauskas
Lithuania has a population of just 3.2 million and might be the only country where basketball is far and away the number one sport. To the majority of Lithuanian, it might be part of their identity.
Their team has lost their identity a little with the retirement of vets Kaukenas and Songaila, and the absence of legendary Sarunas Jasikevicius (you're still not allowed to laugh) and Simas Jasaitis. Thus, the situation at the wings has thinned but fortunately, the tiny nation is never short of breeding amazing basketball talent. Without the vets, Linas Kleiza has been named to lead the spartan-like squad as a genereal alongside young stud Jonas Valanciunas. After a forgettable NBA season that ended with being amnestied by the Raptors, Kleiza has looked rusty in the preparation games though.
Valanciunas was nothing short of amazing in the preparation games, making shots, rebounding the ball on both ends, drawing fouls, blocking shots and looking like a total badass in his new bald-and-beard look. He was the MVP in the armagedonic (is that a word?) 82-51 blowout over Russia, scoring 17 points (11 at the free throw line), getting 8 rebounds and blocking 4 shots. At just 21 years of age, Jo looks ready to take over and prove that he's the real deal.
Lithuania has a super deep, tall and talented and versatile frontcourt with guys able to play 4-5 either as inside or outside players. Kleiza and Valanciunas are backed by the talented, yet inconsistent and undisciplined Motiejunas who gives them wonderful spacing (hit three threes against Russia), efficient low-usage bully Robertas Javtokas (very cool shark tattoo) and the Lavrionvic twins (they look exactly the same!!). The twins haven't played for a few years for Lithuania and it might be surprising that they're called up at the advanced age of 34 again, but their superb deep shooting range and bullying of Marc Gasol is a welcome luxury to have. They are very heavy up front so one of the twins might get cut before the tournament starts. Ksystof had a terrific shooting season and is more comfortable stepping out than his brother and making room for guys like Valanciunas or Kleiza, so he might have an advantage.
6'5" Mantas Kalnietis has the ungrateful job of replacing Jasikevicius as a ballhandler. He's had a nice season with Russian side Lokomotiv Kuban, but is the only player who is a pure point guard. Vytenis Cizauskas nomination has been a surprise, but given the drought at PG for this tournament understandable. He is a very interesting 21-year old bully of a point guard who has some chemistry with JoVal spending time in youth teams, but played limited minutes this season after transferring to the Spanish. He had very strong all-around outings in the U-20 Euro and U-19 World Championships but it might be too early to give him significant time as a back-up point so he might get cut and one of the off-guards Seibutis and Juskevicius function as ballhandlers.
Kuzminskas might be a player to watch. Even though he seems to be buried in the depth chart a little, 6'9" tall Kuzminskas had a terrific season and is just a great threat outside as inside as a post player and rebounder. If Motiejunas keeps being inconsistent, Kuzminskas could take his minutes.
A constant on this team is its size (Cizauskas is the shortest at 6'3" and is very likely cut candidate) and three point savyness around the perimeter and even the frontcourt. Even though Lithuania has had very dominant player personalities over the years like Jasikevicius and now JoVal, their approach is always system over player and it's a thing of beauty to watch them play when they click, much like the Spurs. In the win over Russia, the ball was just flying around left to right, front to back and Lithuania ended up shooting 11 three pointers on 22 attempts in a cooking gym in Vilnius. Lithuania is missing key pieces. However, if they click on offense as they have throughout most of preparation games and Valanciunas is a threat offensively as defensively, they should contend. Well, that's what a lot of people say but don't be fooled by that. I just don't see that unless Kleiza steps up significantly and Kalnietis somehow transforms into as rabbit and deadly a dog as Jasikevicius. They will still be very entertaining.

Macedonia was the surprise hit at the EuroBasket 2011, beating heavily favored host Lithuania and putting its capital into a frenzy. Macedonia reunited the heroic squad of 2011 and expanded it into a giant preparation squad by inviting a number of very interesting, young players to challenge the vets.
The team is led by naturalized 5'10 guard Bo McCalebb who is a lightning quick, excellent ballhandler able to get into the lane at will, drawing lots of fouls and finishing at the rim masterfully. His lack of size and outside shooting is made up by the Stojanovski twins who should start in the backcourt and are ready recipients of McCalebb's outlet passes when he drives to the lane to get the defense's attention. Like many other players on this squad, Damjan is playing in the weak domestic league which is a general disadvantage for Macedonia. After a nice campaign in Ukraine, his brother Vojdan has secured a spot with German Euroleague side Alba Berlin and should be able to take more of a scoring load in the national team. They will share minutes with Vlado Ilievski, more of a point guard, who has had a nice run in European basketball, playing on good teams in Italy and Spain, but is already 33 and merely in a back-up role in the Croatian League. He is still capable of going off and turning games, but has to bounce back from an atrocious shooting performance in the last EuroBasket.
The rest of Macdeonia's backcourt rotation is unreliable, short and features lots of point guards without much wing material. 17-year old Nikolov and Magdeveski left Macedonia early to train in some of the best European youth programs like Real Madrid, but haven't had any pro experience. 21-year old Gjuroski barely sees playing time in the NCAA and 21-year old Markovski sees limited playing time in the domestic league.
The starting frontline is solid but nothing special with the newest member of the Atlanta Hawks, Pero Antic, and Predrag Smardziski. Samardziski hasn't really come out of a back-up role at the club level, but is a very good rebounder up front with great size (7'1") but has stones for hands and thus not a great partner for McCalebb. Antic is a powerhouse who likes to step outside and shoot from long range a little too much, he's also been on the decline for a while and had two rather disappointing seasons which he turned around a little by delivering in the Final Four of the Euroleague to help Olympiacos get two championships in a row. He did play well at the last EuroBasket however and generally seems to be able to turn it on when things get serious and emotional. For Macedonia to do anything, they'll need him to be a plus player.
The rest of the big rotation is mercilessly thin with a few young guys who are nothing special and serve as back-ups in the domestic league or guys like Chekovski and Gechevski, who are far past their prime and do not really belong in international competition.
With the brutal lack of depth, it is hard to see Macedonia repeating the coup of 2011 and maybe even making it into the next round. McCalebb will need Pero Antic and Ilievski to be consistent contributors and Vojdan Stojanovski step up a lot.

As there is only one spot for a naturalized player, the coaching staff decided somewhat surprisingly to give Tyrese Rice the nod at point guard ahead of Taylor Rochestie. Both had terrific seasons for their respective clubs in decent leagues, but Rochestie had a better shooting season and led the team during the qualification tournament, so I thought he'd get the job. Much like Macedonia, Montenegro is not very deep with 19-year old Nikola Ivanovic having to back up the starting point guard. Ivanovic is another very young and interesting player with pro experience, but plays in the weak domestic league which he didn't set on fire so he should be outmatched if he even plays much. He became somewhat of a hero though by being a key player in a stunning last second defeat over Serbia. The perimeter is very unremarkable in general with wingers who play in inferior leagues and do not posess great scoring instincts.
Nikola Pekovic's presence would put this team on another level with a real go-to option and a terrific frontcourt with Nikola Vucevic. Pek's absence should trigger more minutes for Wolves draftee Dubljevic who could give Montenegro great floor spacing alongside Vucevic, even though it is questionable whether the guards apart from Rice could take advantage of that space. Dubljevic shot 47% on threes on 76 attempts in the Spanish league and 38% on 36 attempts in the Eurocup, averaging 13.3 points and 4.8 rebounds internationally. Given their young age, their defensive potential is questionable, but they are backed by very experienced Blagota Sekulic who had a fine campaign in the Spanish league. It is somewhat stunning that 21-year old FC Barcelona center Marko Todorovic did not make the cut after Pekovic's decline, but he seemed to have battled an injury that might have led to that decision. That's disappointing. Dubljevic, Vucevic and Todorovic would have been must see tv for people interested in youngsters who are/could become interesting to the NBA. I still linked to his Draftexpress profile.
The strong frontcourt could carry Montenegro into being a top 10 team as many people see them. A lot will depend on Dubljevic's and Vucevic's logging big minutes at a pro tournament for the first time. I don't really see them as strong as most people though. Nobody is scared of them, but nobody will take them as lightly as 2011 either.

Serbia is a team that has had great squads that have underachieved ever since gaining independence. This year they present themselves with an extremely young team that will revolve around their mad mastermind Milos Teodosic.
The missing Savanovic and Erceg hurt Serbia extremely because they are the number 1 and 2 options at the 4. Bad news for Serbia, good news for Timberwolves fans as Nemanja Bjelica is the only true option at power forward and should see a bulk of the minutes there. With his shooting and rebounding, Bjelica might finally take his unique level of talent and deliver alongside veteran Nenad Krstic who will anchor the defense among this extremely young and inexperienced squad.
Milos Teodosic might be one of the greatest if not greatest contemporary European 'what if he ever went to the NBA?' players. He might lack the body and defensive potential to be anything more than a spark plug in limited minutes in the NBA, but boy is his offensive arsenal and style entertaining. As with many great shoot first point guards genius borders dangerously near madness and the risk of Mr. Milos harming his team by being Dr. Teodosic is high on this young team with few guys who could keep up with his ego. Golden State Warriors fans might want to zap into Serbia games as one of Steph Curry's newest back-ups, hyper athletic shooter Nemanja Nedovic, will propably start at shooting guard to bolster the quality of the starting five and give a ballhandling relief for mad scientist Milos.
Another interesting name in the backcourt is 21-year old Bogdan Bogdanovic who withdrew his name from the 2013 draft. Bogdan is one of my favorite youngsters right now, a 6'6"-shooting guard who can handle the ball extremely well and is not afraid of asking for the ball (well, we'll see how this workes with Milos). Bogdan had a very nice shooting season in his domestic league, but struggled in Euroleague competition which might have been the reason he didn't take a chance on this year's draft. Defensively, Bogdan has great potential as well as he has a 6'10" wingspan. The tournament should be a fun deer in the headlights moment for 19 year old 6'4" pure point guard Vasilje Micic who just finished playing in the U19 Euro Championships to compete with the big boys. He's one to really scout closely the next few years as he's a sureshot to get drafted to the NBA at some point. Don't expect him to see minutes behind Milos, Nemanja and pass-first-second-and-third PG Stefan Markovic.
Nemanja Krstic is another poor youngster being fed to the wolves after finishing a decent, if unspectacular stint at the U20 Euro Championship. Krstic, much like Kalinic, had a hefty schedule this year playing well over 800 minutes in the season so don't expect him to see much court time either. The absence of the natural 4s and starting 3 Lucic and vet Rasic has made minute management at the wing just as hard. Bjelica and Bogdanovic might shift around the 3 spot a lot because other options like Andjusic, the best of the bench wings are actualy too small to play that position.
It's hard to project this team, especially in a tough group like this one. Only one thing is certain: It will be hard to google EuroBasket press pictures of Teodosic without a basketball. They should underachieve again and this time, they'll have an excuse because their roster is not ready.

Well, unfortunately for Latvia, they have been put into a group with teams that are all superior to them on paper but I'm not sure whether people might be underestimating them a little. They sure do look better than in 2011. The roster is mostly the same with all the youngsters, who were 18-22 in 2011, having more experience under their belt now. Not saying that they look like advancing to the second round but they could make life hard for some of the teams in this group.
The frontcourt took a huge blow in the last few months as Biedrins as well as Bertans will be missed sorely. Bertans, picked by the Pacers in 2011, is an outside oriented 6'11 big with a deadly stroke, great fluidity and headiness on defense. Unfortunately, he tore his ACL in July.
A big problem the backcourt faces is that there isn't much talent that had a significant offensive role on the club level apart from Janis Blums who was a spark plug off the bench for Lithuanian Lietuvos Rytas, and Davis brother Dairis Bertans whose strong play in the domestic league got him a contract with a Spanish team. Still, these guys are not elite scoring talents as some of the other weaker teams have.
Latvia has two interesting young guns in Janis Timma and Mareks Mejeris. 22-year old 6'10" forward Mejeris had a great season in the second Spanish league, averaging efficient 9.3 points and 5.3 rebounds in a starting role. Timma was taken with the last pick of the 2013 draft by Memphis. Jannis responded remarkably to the brutal schedule of Baltic basketball and played significant minutes in the domestic league, the EuroChallenge and the Baltic league – 58 games, 1309 minutes. 12.5 points, 5.4 rebounds, 2.8 assts, 1.1 steals on 62.4% 2FG%, 42% 3FG in the domestic league. In the Eurochallenge, 6.5 points, 4.3 rebounds, 3.1 assists, 0.9 steals,on 46% 2FG% and 43% 3FG%. In the Baltic League, 10.6 points, 5.7 rebounds, 1.8 assists, 0.8 steals on 65% 2FG and 33 3FG%. He's a very interesting prospect and should be able to see minutes in this tournament. With all the minutes he has played this years as well as Summer League for the Grizzlies, he might not impress at all.
Latvia is not going anywhere with so many teams clearly ahead of them in this group but their preparation results should make them optimistic about not being total fodder in a tough group.
Video: Janis Timma meeting young fans... sorry, that's the best I could do.
So that's Group B. Latvia shouldn't be much of a factor in this group and Serbia might be a negative surprise. Basically, Lithuania should be the runaway favorite with all the balkan states in a n intense competition for the remaining two spots. Whoever loses to Latvia is at a major disadvantage.

EAST PEORIA, Ill -- Frigid temperatures like Monday's are not only harmful to people and pets; they can wreak havoc on your vehicle.
Lows Monday night and Tuesday are expected to hover close to zero and those temps could make it a little harder to get your car started.
Local Mechanic Doug Randall says not having sufficient anti-freeze and neglecting a tune-up are some of the biggest reasons a car gives out in the winter.
"You want to make sure that the anti-freeze is good for probably at least 30, 35 below zero," said Doug Randall, owner of Larry's Auto Body. "It's a good thing to get a tune-up, new spark plugs, oil change, have your tires checked. Batteries are also an important thing, have a good battery in the car."
Randall says replacing your battery and spark plugs can help prevent your car from not starting once the temperatures drop below zero.

RICHMOND, Va. - One bill requiring Virginia voters to present photo identification at the polls is dead, but another lives for at least a few more days.
A Senate committee has voted 7-6 to advance Republican Sen. Mark Obenshain's bill to a vote by the full Senate later this week. That came more than 12 hours after a House subcommittee effectively killed a related measure.
During sometimes-chaotic Privileges and Election Committee debate on Obenshain's bill, Democratic Sen. Don McEachin noted that it didn't specify the state had to provide photo IDs for free to voters who lack them.
The bill was amended to provide for the free cards because without them, federal courts would void the law as an illegal poll tax.

The Missouri Botanical Garden said its rare corpse flower is blooming.
Garden officials said the flower began blooming Thursday evening and will continue into Friday. In the first 24 hours, the plant gives off a rotten smell.
The bloom will last for about a day and a half but the foul odor mostly diminishes after the first 24 hours. The plant grows up to 6 feet tall and can be up to 3 feet wide.
The St. Louis Post-Dispatch reported the rare plants don't bloom every year. They store energy in a huge underground stem and can take up to a decade to bloom.
The Botanical Garden has eight specimens.

A 17-year-old is recovering after he was grazed by a bullet outside of an anti-gun violence meeting at Frayser community center on Tuesday.
The meeting was hosted by 901 BLOC Squad, which stands for Better Lives, Opportunities and Communities, and is a Memphis city initiative to help combat youth gun violence and gangs.
MORE: Teen shot in neck at community center
MORE: Teen shot block from Hamilton High
The teen was one of several at-risk youths invited to Tuesday's meeting.
There's been a beef in the streets among rival gangs, but after Tuesday evening's shooting, a squabble sparked among those who work to help save people, from gangs and violence. Now, those anti-gang leaders hope to shoot straight moving forward.
"Come together at a table like this and talk about how to be peaceful," said gang interventionist Delvin Lane, who focuses on anti-gun violence, specifically aiming towards at-risk youth.
"No. 1 thing to show them how to deal with conflict resolution," he added. "Guns are fired because of conflict."
But a shooting during the group's first meeting in Frayser sparked conflict among those dedicated to preventing it. Ten young people were invited to the 901 BLOC focus meeting, but trouble happened after one of the teens stepped outside to use his phone.
"Isolated violent crime out in the community, kid got hit by stray bullet," Lane said.
"Can't say 'oh it was random,' because it's not random. We don't get it everyday," added Joseph Hunter, who heads up a non-profit gang intervention program, which primarily works out of the Frayser Community Center.
901 BLOC invited violence, by bringing young people from another set to Frayser's vice lord territory, Hunter added.
"Because I would've told them who are these guys your bringing who are they, do you really know enough about them?," he said.
However, Lane says the teenager is not in a gang and not targeted. He stresses the focus group in Frayser is the first of several, but Hunter says no one informed him about the meeting on his stomping grounds.
Bofta: "A lot of gang initiatives in city run by different people. Do you all communicate?"
Lane: "To this point we've been trying to build a team of folks. It's new. We haven't been communicating up to this point as well as we should've been."
While the two leaders say they've hashed out their differences, they each plan to communicate better to help reach the common goal.
"Keeping kids first and letting political issues take the back seat because lives are at stake," Lane said.
901 BLOC plans to host a candlelight vigil dedicated to those who've lost loved ones. That is set for Jan. 26. The march starts at 4 p.m. at the Claiborne Temple and wraps up at Booker T. Washington High School.

Tom Brady / QB / New England Patriots
The normally composed Brady seemed to lose his cool on a couple occasions at Pittsburgh in Week 10, pushing his teammates to raise their game while he took apart one of the league's best defenses and helped the Patriots recover from their loss to the Browns. Brady didn't hide his passion, and his focus was clear, too. He connected with rookie TE Rob Gronkowski for three touchdown passes and also scored on a three-yard run in New England's 39-26 victory. The Steelers hit Brady, who completed 30-of-43 passes for 350 yards, three times, but failed to register a sack and gave up a season-high 453 yards. Few other quarterbacks are capable of making Dick LeBeau's defense look that bad.
Mario Haggan / OLB / Denver Broncos
It took career days from Haggan and a couple other Broncos, including QB Kyle Orton, who fired four touchdown passes, but Denver snapped its four-game losing streak. Haggan doubled his career sack total in Week 10 alone, sacking Chiefs QB Matt Cassel three times for losses of 32 yards and forcing a fumble in Denver's 49-29 win. The frustration was building from all the losing, and the team faced a distraction when LB D.J. Williams was arrested for suspicion of drunken driving on Nov. 12. "We didn't flinch at all," Haggan said. "We love D.J. Everybody makes mistakes. I make them. I don't know a person who doesn't. It didn't affect us at all. Did it look like it?" He didn't have to ask twice.
Devin Hester / WR / Chicago Bears
The Bears went back to their old tricks in a game with major implications in the NFC North race. WR Devin Hester returned kickoffs for the first time this season, and he had the Vikings on their heels, breaking free for returns of 68 and 32 yards. He also had punt returns of 42 and five yards in Chicago's big win over the fading Vikings. "Everything just seemed so easy today," Hester said. "Guys just went out and busted their tails and got on their guys and gave me an opportunity to find holes." The Bears had good field position all afternoon and Hester still had enough energy to make a major contribution on offense. He had four catches for 38 yards and a touchdown.

Layoff announcements by IT vendors came fast and furious over the past two weeks. But it was Microsoft's that drew the attention of a U.S. senator, who said it was "imperative" that the company give job priority to U.S. citizens over foreigners with H-1B visas.
"Microsoft has a moral obligation to protect ... American workers by putting them first during these difficult economic times," Sen. Charles Grassley (R-Iowa) wrote in a letter to Microsoft CEO Steve Ballmer on Jan. 22.
[ Find out why Vista was the main culprit in Microsoft layoffs | Related: Intel also announced it would cut as many as 6,000 jobs. ]
Grassley, a vocal critic of the H-1B program, could have sent the letter to any of the vendors laying off employees -- or to corporations with H-1B workers on their IT staffs. He likely singled out Microsoft because its chairman, Bill Gates, has called for an increase in the annual cap on visas during congressional hearings.
Microsoft, which plans to cut up to 5,000 employees over the next 18 months, said last week that a "significant number" of the first 1,400 people being let go are foreign workers who are in the United States on visas.
The software vendor wouldn't be more specific, though. And despite Grassley's demands, there are no federal laws that require companies to lay off H-1B holders before U.S. workers.
"In fact, the law is very well designed to say that you have to treat H-1Bs the same as U.S. citizens in all regards," said David Kussin, an immigration attorney at Pillsbury Winthrop Shaw Pittman in New York.
Even Grassley appeared to acknowledge that point in his letter to Ballmer, when he wrote about Microsoft's "moral obligation." He didn't describe protecting U.S. workers as a legal requirement.
Microsoft won't disclose the number of H-1B workers on its payroll, and it's hard to get a complete picture of any company's visa use from the U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services.
But the software vendor is considered to be one of the leading H-1B employers. For instance, according to USCIS data, Microsoft received approval for a total of nearly 2,300 visas for the federal government's 2006 and 2007 fiscal years.
In the statement that Microsoft released in response to Grassley's letter, the company noted that there is a "human impact" for all workers who are laid off, including H-1B holders.
"For many of the employees here on a visa, being laid off means that they have to leave the country on very short notice, in many cases uprooting families and children," Microsoft said.
Indeed, visa holders whose jobs are eliminated face some difficult decisions. Kussin said that as soon as H-1B workers lose their jobs, they technically "are no longer eligible to be in the United States."

In the beginning, I chose BHSU because no one from my hometown area was going here, the location is absolutely beautiful and far from anything I'd see at home, and it was far enough from home that I couldn't go home every weekend but close enough that if something happened I could still make it back in a day. After actually going to classes here, I was even happier I made the decision to attend BHSU because it was the perfect fit for me; I come from a very small town and BHSU gives you that small town feeling and class size but still has options for you to choose from.
I had decided to major in Psychology before I had even applied to any colleges. I have always felt this "pull" toward attempting to understand people and their behavior, or what makes them tick. I've also always felt the need to help others in ways they might not be able to help themselves, and Psychology always seemed to be the perfect tool. I've always said that my biggest life goal is to save a child's life because so many seem to be lost and hurting nowadays, and I feel that Psychology will only help prepare me more for that.
The all-around atmosphere in the classrooms and the approachability of the professors in the department is the most beneficial. Every class I've been in has been so full of life and has had such open discussions that I find it would be near impossible for someone to have an opinion that wasn't respected by everyone else in the class. Most, if not all, the professors have an open-door policy which makes approaching them with questions and concerns, whether in their office or in class, so much easier than other universities where you may only be a number on a roster and a face in the crowd: Professors make a point to know you at BHSU.
The most recent plan is to apply to Master's level programs for School Counseling so that I can work with young students in the Black Hills area, or at least in South Dakota. I would like to emphasize in an area that allows me to work with minority populations, specifically the Native American population. Whether or not my future entails going after a PhD is still up in the air, but not completely ruled out. After graduation, I'd mainly like to see where life takes me that I'm most happy.
I've been involved with the Theta Nu sorority and peer mentoring for Student Support Services and General Psychology students, which has allowed me to make life-long friends and learn valuable leadership and interpersonal skills. I've also had the privilege to be a teaching assistant for several psychology classes and take part in research valuable to the education community which has given me priceless knowledge and helped prepare me for graduate school and whatever else may lie ahead of me.
Don't forget who you are and about your own happiness. Sometimes you need to put yourself first so that you are okay with you. Don't let anyone tell you who you are and where you should be, the only person who can tell you what you need to be doing with your life is you. Listen to yourself and follow your heart.
Listen to Andrew Jordan Thayer, psychology major at BHSU, as he discusses experiential learning projects in which he has been involved and the benefits resulting from those experiences.
Recently we asked Ava Sauter, a senior Psychology major, a few questions about her experience here at BHSU.
Why did you choose BHSU?
I began my academic career wanting to become a high school English teacher and BHSU was well known for its education program.
Why did you choose Psychology?
My decision to go into psychology can be attributed to a number of great professors. These professors sparked my interest in psychology and guided me into a new way of thinking about the world. They helped me develop a passion that has ultimately shaped my future.
In your experience, what do you see as the most beneficial aspect of the Psychology program?
The most beneficial aspect is by far the people that hold it up. I say "hold" because these individuals take what they are given and use it in the most effective way to create a department that is aimed at preparing students for lifetime careers in psychology. They make the department great.
What do you plan to do after graduation?
That's a very good question. The truth is that I'm not sure at the moment and I kind of like that. I know that I want to travel for a while and challenge myself in other ways than just academically. The ultimate plan is to attend graduate school and get my PhD in research psychology working with aspects of trauma.
What have been your experiences outside the classroom at BHSU?
I have to be honest and say that if I wasn't in a classroom at BHSU, I probably wasn't at BHSU. The Spearfish community has been very good to me and has provided the medium for a number of great adventures.
What is one piece of advice you would give incoming freshman?
Find your passion. It gives you a reason to get out of bed in the morning.
Why did you choose BHSU?
Initially, I chose BHSU because of its location. I stayed here because I truly enjoy my courses and professors.
At first, I was drawn to psychology because it is such an interesting field. Over the course of my college experience, I have come to the realization that this field fits well with who I am as a person.
The interaction with the professors in this department has been the most beneficial aspect of the Psychology program for me. They are truly interested in expanding the knowledge and skill set of their students and helping them prepare for life after college, whether they continue with graduate school or join the work force.
I will be applying to a few different Clinical and Counseling Psychology programs this fall. Once I'm done with graduate school, I hope to be a counselor and work with couples. I can also see myself teaching at a university level.
I've had the opportunity to take part in different organizations and activities which has allowed me to meet new people and make friends. I have had the privilege to intern with the BHSU Psychology Department this semester and have taken on the role of teaching assistant for a number of classes. As a teaching assistant, I have been given the opportunity to lecture and conduct study sessions and have gained valuable knowledge thus far that will help me with graduate school and beyond.
Work hard and get involved early; your college education is what you make of it, and it will be over faster than you think.
Meet BHSU's Psychology Alumni...
Why did you choose BHSU?
I chose BHSU for its size, the area the school is in, because it's still close to home for me and for the opportunities I would have coming here even for a smaller University.
Why did you choose Psychology?
I chose Psychology because of the variety of aspects one can go in to and that are studied in psychology. I'm glad I made this choice, this is a field I've become passionate about and the faculty and program at BH are great.
In your experience, what do you see as the most beneficial aspect of the Psychology program?
Anywhere you go you will be learning basically the same material if you go in to psychology. What you won't get anywhere else is the personal attention you get here at BHSU. Here you get the opportunity to become good friends with most of the people you will be graduating with and professors who care. They care about the material they're trying to teach you and about you as an individual which isn't the case in a lot of places.
What do you plan to do after graduation?
After graduation I plan to earn my PhD in Clinical Psychology. I've also applied for Teach For America which is a two year commitment so I may do that as well if I'm accepted. Eventually I hope to end up in a University setting where I could do a little bit of everything, teaching, research, and counseling.
What have been your experiences outside the classroom at BHSU?
My experiences outside the classroom have been just as beneficial as the ones in the classroom. I've had the opportunity to be involved with a number of different organizations and activities which have helped me grow and learn skills I can use throughout my life. I also had the opportunity to be a part of the track & field team here for 3 years which was an amazing experience for me. I've become great friends with a lot of my classmates and have built relationships with the faculty here and it's these moments and relationships that I wouldn't trade for anything.
What is one piece of advice you would give incoming freshman?
I think the best advice I could give to any incoming freshmen would be to get involved. Whether that's involved with an organization on campus or just being active and seen in the classroom it will help out tremendously. If you get involved and make an effort in some area, this University will take an interest and make the effort for you in return.
Joanna Vandever, a junior psychology major from Spearfish, was selected to attend the University of Minnesota's Research Experience for Undergraduates (REU) 2007 summer program in Behavioral and Cognitive Sciences.
Vandever worked full-time in the research lab, attended seminars and workshops and had the opportunity to tour state-of-the-art research labs. At the end of the program, she prepared a paper and poster on her research and presented at a symposium, which included REU students in other areas.
Dr. William Iacono, associate professor at the University of Minnesota, was Vandever's mentor. Iacono's research involves the study of twins and adoptees at risk for developing substance use disorders, and the accuracy and use of polygraph tests.
Vandever was selected from among more than 200 applicants. Selection is based on application answers, faculty recommendations, transcripts, and the match of applicants' interests with those of participating faculty. She earned four upper level credit hours, paid for by the program, and received a $4,000 stipend, as well as housing, a meal plan, and transportation to and from Minneapolis.
Vandever discovered the summer psychology research program last year while attending the American Psychological Association's Summer Science Institute, a week-long program held at the University of Minnesota.
Vandever, who is a member of the Honors Program and Dr. Stoltenberg's research team, recently presented at the National Conference for Undergraduate Research. She plans to attend graduate school and obtain a Ph.D. in cognitive neuroscience or behavior genetics.

I'm not impressed with the 24-70 images at all..There is something kind of strange about her face...
The distortion looks bad…even at 70mm, the model's face looks really weird..
however, those 35mm pictures look pretty nice. I'm not sure if i'd pay 900 for this lens, especially given it's an f2, but the pictures were nice.
Anyone know where those 35mm pictures were taken? I think I really just liked the location.

The Word: Check out Beyonce's new haircut
Beyonce's head must feel a lot lighter now. Last night she posted a bunch of selfies on her Instagram, and her long, thick locks are totally gone, shorn to a short blonde 'do.
Style-wise, she's gone from Barbie to Ken. If Ken were also an impossibly beautiful, glamorous woman. It still looks amazing. Sort of Edie Sedgwick-esque, and perfect for an unusually hot summer, not to mention the mother of a toddler who's probably in a grabby stage. Plus it'll be much easier to fit into a bike helmet.
Hey, does this mean that there's a salon floor somewhere in Brooklyn that's covered in Beyonce's hair? Excuse me, I have to run an errand. Don't worry about it.
Speaking of the borough, Brooklyn's status as second banana to Manhattan is officially over. When even superstar Beyonce is embracing the Brooklyn lifestyle, you know it's the center of the world.
Beyonce's concert dates at Brooklyn's Barclays Center wrapped up Monday night, and to celebrate she biked across the Brooklyn Bridge to get to the show. (OK, so she's apparently staying in Manhattan. That just means that Manhattan is — gasp — a suburb of Brooklyn.) Bey posted a set of Instagram photos of her journey across the bridge.

One of the families standing in the lobby at your Rancho Coastal Humane Society was so excited they probably weren't hearing half of what Adoption Counselor Christina Schacht was saying. They were getting a puppy! Life was never going to be the same. It was going to be way better!
The other family stood nearby, remembering the day 14 years ago when they adopted their puppy from RCHS. But now they had lost the old dog that their puppy had become. They had watched it grow through adolescence and adulthood. Then one morning they woke up to find it was a gray-faced, senior citizen. Then a few days ago, it had crossed over the Rainbow Bridge where it would wait for them, forever young.
They weren't sure why they came that day. They told RCHS care provider John Cavoulas that they weren't ready to adopt again. It was more of a pilgrimage to the place where it all began. A chance to remember how that tiny pup had reached its paw through the bars and whispered, "Please. Take me. I'm your new dog."
So why do we keep doing this? Why do we invite these animals into our homes...into our hearts...knowing that one day we'll become that family trying to re-live the moment?
I believe that we do it for the walks in the park. For the naps in the sunshine. For the looks that ask, "Can I please have a treat?" For the open mouth yawn that seems to say, "I may weigh 6 pounds but I'm still the king of this jungle."
We do it for the warm cat napping on our lap on a cold night. For the muffled woofs during doggie dreams.
We do it because, no matter how much we give them, they'll gladly give us more. Their hearts are pure and true. Their love is unconditional. We do it for the love.
Your support or Rancho Coastal Humane Society makes this possible.
For those who have no voice...Thank You.
Jim Silveira, President
Rancho Coastal Humane Society

Andrew (left, wearing a rag & bone shirt and tie) and Chris at the Turkey Leg Ball.
By day, Andrew Steinthal does PR at Warner Bros. Records, while Chris Stang works in Marketing at Atlantic Records. But off-duty, the music industry execs have turned their love of eating out, which they do a lot of in their line of work, into a side career with their massively popular blog Immaculate Infatuation (they also have an app).
The duo don't lay claim to being food critics but they know good food and serve up unpretentious, no-nonsense New York restaurant reviews.
Food is constantly a hot topic in the rag & bone office, so we asked the guys to give us a list of five spots we must check out in 2012….
Parm, 248 Mulberry St. – Nolita
Sometimes simplicity is underrated in Manhattan's restaurant scene. That's precisely why we love Parm, the new Italian sandwich shop from the fellas behind Torrisi Italian Specialties. The meatball and turkey sandwich here have been fan favorites since they served them next store at Torrisi during lunch, but it's The Saratoga Club – a triple decker chicken salad sandwich topped with bacon and crushed up potato chips – that steals the show. We could eat that sandwich for lunch every day for the rest of our lives and die happy. We'd also probably die soon.
Colonie, 127 Atlantic Ave. – Brooklyn Heights
Colonie opened up shop on the edge of Brooklyn Heights last year, and is now consistently packed for dinner every night. Both dinner and brunch are incredible, from the drinks all the way to the dessert. The restaurant is comfortable and interesting, the staff is cool, and we loved sitting at the open kitchen counter, downing lambrusco and watching our food come to life. The key seems to be in smart ordering, so ask your waiter for some guidance. Had we not had the inside info, we might have skipped the half chicken or the gnudi. Luckily, we didn't. Neither should you.
Post Office, 188 Havemeyer St. – Williamsburg
Unless you live on the South side of Williamsburg, you've probably never heard of Post Office. It's time to change that. We dropped a ridiculously high rating on this unassuming whisky bar with a tiny kitchen that might actually be operating on Easy Bake Ovens. However, those little ovens are cranking out mind blowingly good food. The pulled pork sandwich, deviled eggs, and steak tartare are all absolutely amazing. And you won't find better selection of American whiskey anywhere in this city.
Prima, 58 E. 1st St. – East Village
Welcome to our new favorite East Village hangout. We've always loved the drinks at The Summit Bar on Ave. C, even though we could do without the bouncer situation out front. Really, another private party for Sarah's birthday? Yea, we'll be sure to come back in three hours. See you then. Luckily, they've have decided to jettison the door guy and jump into the food game with this new restaurant, Prima. Yes, there are some amazing cocktails here, but this place is all about eating quality fish. We love the simply prepared skate and the tempura hake fish 'n chips. All the while, you should be drinking what might be the best old fashioned in the city and finish things off with the incredible mille feuille vanilla cream pastry.
Hospoda, 321 E. 73rd St. – Upper East Side
If there's such a thing as "fine dining for dudes", we've just discovered it. Welcome to Hospoda, an upscale Czech restaurant that's just as much a beer hall as it is a culinary destination. There aren't many places in this city where a guy can order a light beer with his three course meal and not get treated like a redneck that just won the lottery. But at Hospoda, they actually encourage such behavior. As a matter of fact, half the point of this place is to educate you on the nuances of drinking fresh Pilsner Urquell with varying amounts of foam, just like they do back in the Czech Republic. No wonder we liked it so much.

French authorities nab Android Trojan horse maker
Posted by Jason Diaz Categories: Google, Misc. Tech, Mods / Hacks, Software
Yet another case of malware found on Google Play. A 20-year-old man suspected of an elaborate Android Trojan SMS scheme was arrested in France. The alleged hacker tallied over 17,000 Android users that installed malicious software posed as copy cat apps. The scheme works by sending SMS messages at a premium cost. The hacker then earns a micro-transaction fee, leaving the unsuspecting user with an unexpected hefty monthly bill.
The hacker informed French authorities that he was more motivated by the technical aspect than monetary gain and had goals of becoming a software engineer. Cyber criminals have made inroads into making malware in the Android platform partly because the Google Play Store is open and is not curated and vetted for security like Apple's App Store. Hackers have created clone malware of popular apps like Skype, Instagram, and Angry birds. Some of these apps steal personal information and passwords and can capture pretty much anything you type.
Computer venders Security, like Sophos, strongly advise Android users to be vigilant and also install their free anti-virus security suite.

Has your basement developed a smelly, musty odor? Well, the smell could be the result of mold or mildew. Because of this, it is important to call your local mold remediation specialists to further examine your situation.
Mold can be detrimental in several ways, including:
- Mold has been linked to a variety of health issues, including asthma, allergies, rashes and sinus infections to pneumonia, skin infections, and much more!
- Mold can damage to your home, slowly eating away at building materials like wood, cement, and drywall.
Mold remediation is important to not only eliminate the overbearing, musty smell from your basement, but also to keep your family safe and healthy.
The Mold Remediation Process
- Locating the Problem: What is causing the mold outbreak? Is there a leaky pipe? Is there a leaky window? How is excess moisture making its way into your basement?
- Isolating the Contaminated Area: Mold spores easily travel through the air when agitated. This is why it is crucial to seal off the contaminated area to prevent the spread of mold to other areas of the home.
- Removing affected Materials: If materials, such as carpets and furniture, have been affected by mold, there items must be removed and professionally cleaned.
- Cleaning the affected Area: This is the part of mold remediation that deals with actually removing the mold from the home.
The trick to dealing with mold is to quickly eliminate mold before it grows out of control. This is where Atlantic Environmental Solutions can help!
AES employs a team of highly-trained, experienced mold remediation professionals, ensuring the proper diagnosis and remedy for your specific mold infestation. Using state-of-the-art equipment and following protocols established by the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), we employ the most effective techniques to ensure safe indoor air quality during and after the abatement process.
If you have any questions about Mold Remediation Services or if you have a situation that needs immediate attention, please contact Atlantic Environmental Solutions by calling 877-296-6653 or click here today!

The major aim of Cyberspace and the Stateis to provide conceptual orientation on the new strategic environment of the Information Age. It seeks to restore the equilibrium of policy-makers which has been disturbed by recent cyber scares, as well as to bring clarity to academic debate on the subject particularly in the fields of politics and international relations, war and strategic studies. Its main chapters explore the impact of cyberspace upon the most central aspects of statehood and the state system-power, sovereignty, war, and dominion. It is concerned equally with practice as with theory and may be read in that sense as having two halves.

His light bill was $859
Thank you for your recent article that explains why my father, 82 years old, has a perpetually high light bill. Since the first of the year, it's been more than $500, and this month's bill came in at a whopping $859. This is unreasonable for man who primarily lives alone. Something's got to be done to ensure that rates are equitable for all residents.
