A: The beer is clear amber in color and has a light amount of visible carbonation. It poured with a thin off white head that quickly died down, leaving some lacing on the surface and a collar around the edge of the glass.
S: Light aromas of wheat are present in the nose along with hints of raspberry syrup.
T: The taste is dominated by flavors of sweet raspberries, and tastes like a Jolly Rancher candy.
M: It feels light- to medium-bodied on the palate and has a moderate amount of carbonation.
O: This beer is easy to drink but is too sweet to be refreshing. It tastes a lot like a candy.

A - Pours crystal clear with a small head that fades quickly. There can't be much wheat in this beer with such poor head retention.
S - Some caramel malt with a hint of artificial strawberry smell.
T - Tastes like a light lager mixed with Boone's Farm Strawberry Hill. A little toasted grain flavor which is not unpleasant but it is all overwhelmed with a tart and artificial strawberry flavor.
M - Crisp, clean, until the tartness makes you pucker.
D - Not very drinkable unless you are desperate for a "beer".

Pours into my pint an amber/orange color with a slight hint of red. A small bubbly white head that quickly falls to a ring around the top. Aromas of wheat husk and roasted grain mingle with a strawberry juice aroma. The melding of scents is nice with the strawberry not being too overpowering.
First sip brings a slightly abrasive wheat husk maltiness that's also a bit toasty. Sweet strawberry flavor flows in and adds a nice boost to what would otherwise be another boring american pale wheat ale. A crisp, clean ale with a touch of strawberry essence. Pretty standard wheat based fruit beer.
Mouthfeel is good with a sturdy body and prickly carbonation. Goes down with easy going refreshment. A nice summer brew when you want something light and laid back. This wouldn't be something I'd normally choose but it's an interesting change of pace.

This fruit beer is for fans of light beers and no desire to drink a real beer. Weak in every way.
The false strawberry flavor permeates but is not even strong enough to mask the ultra weak wheat style. A boring garbage beer that never comes into its own flavor. So light and so nothing.

12oz bottle. Light amber with a touch of haze. Thin eggshell colored fizzy head. Not much lace or retention action going on. Acid in the "strawberry flavor" perhaps?
Bland, hints of metal, with a very faint strawberry extract aroma.
Fizzy and light mouthfeel leads to a rather acidic, sharp, fruity faux-strawberry, half-chewed bubble-gum flavor. Some lemon/lime, salt and leaf characters towards the finish, which is over in a quick flash on the palate, leaving a dry palate. Wheat twang and crispness. If there's any hops character it's masked by the sharpness of this beer. Malts? Maybe traces of grain underneath, but the strawberries dominate this brew. As much as this is an uncommon and interesting fruit to use, the acidic and faux-strawberry character is a bit annoying, making for a very unbalanced brew. I'm not impressed, but a fruit beer freak might wanna give this a try.

Poured a nice hazy, caramel and reddish-brown color with no head. Amazing aroma of fresh strawberries, makes you think of summer. Light carbination. At the first sip you get a burst of strawberry, and then you are left feeling as though you just ate a piece of bubbalicious bubblegum. Kind of brings you back to gradeschool! Clean and watery, very refreshing. Good and summery session beer.

3.05/5 rDev -3.5%
Presentation: It was poured from a brown 12 oz bottle into a pint glass.
Appearance: The body has a deep reddish amber color with a small light tan head. The head is quick to fade out and makes no lacing at all.
Smell: It has a very mild cherry and berry like sweetness coming though a light white bready maltiness. Overall it reminds me of a store bought almond ring coffee cake.
Taste / Palate: The flavor has a light thin feel with a balance of mild fruit and wheat. It seems somewhat dry and slightly tart. This finishes with some very light hop bitterness.

3.08/5 rDev -2.5%
Presentation: 12 oz brown bottle with no freshness date.
Appearance: A typical wheat beer froth, it seems to stick around a bit as well. Hazy straw amber color sort of murky looking.
Smell: Smells a little bit like strawberry soda extract. A neutral malt and yeast are in the back.
Taste: Odd strawberry fruit flavor, the wheat leaves a mild twang and there is sweetness all around from the wheat and feigned by the fruit flavor. Hops are extremely small on the palate with a lasting strawberry flavor in the finish.
Notes: A fruit beer is a fruit beer is a fruit beer this one of those fruit beers.

"wheat beer with strawberry flavor added" says the label of this 12 oz bottle. Not exactly encouraging news. The pour produces a quite attractive brew, with a clear amber body(must be filtered) with lots of carbonation going on in the glass. One finger of tightknit offwhite head towers over the body and leaves a lasting cap and some sheet lacing. Aroma is buttered biscuit with strawberry jam. Some caramel and toasted wheat add interesting notes. Mouthfeel is odd, beginning watery, but moving into light medium as it warms. Moderate carbonation.
Taste begins with sickly sweet strawberry jam, but the berries quickly fade. Caramel sweetness emerges and is offset with an anstringent wet grass bitterness. The strawberry flavor briefly reenters the profile, but has a processed character, as opposed to the fresh berry taste of a Melbourne Brothers fruit ale Slight toasty wheat just adds to the muddle.
I might try one of these again, simply for the unusual strawberry jam accent. Just an average American fruit beer, overall.

3.13/5 rDev -0.9%
Appearance: 1 inch head, reddish-brown in color, clear, moderate carbonation
Smell: strawberries and wheat
Taste: strawberries dominant at the beginning and the end..wheat is present throughout and there is a touch of hops in the middle.
Mouthfeel: sweet start with a slightly bitter middle and a sweetish end, high carbonation, light bodied
Drinkability: This is a nice and light summer beer that I might have again. The strawberry is present but does not dominate the beer. I have had better fruit beers and way worse. Not a beer to spend the night drinking, but certainly one in the middle of a tasting would be refreshing.

-12 oz. bottle poured into mug.
A: Pinkish/Copper color. Very thin head.
S: More wheat than strawberry. Not overwhelming.
T: Just like the smell; malty with a hint of strawberry.
M: Light body. Little Carbonation.
D: Drinkable. Glad I only bought a 6'er of it though, probably won't purchase again. This was the 1st strawberry flavored beer that I've ever tried.

A slightly hazed by no means cloudy or unfiltered has a orange light copper tint to it with a nice sized creamy white head leaving on specks of lacing with each consecutive sip. The sharp wheat tones with a bit of biscuity bready malt character and then there's enough of the strawberry in the actual aroma. Taste is creamy textured good drink one for dessert but there sharp sweetness of the wheat and the strawberry finish doesn't sit well in my stomach it's just one of those flavors, all and all not bad tasting just a bit astringently sweet harsh on the back of the throat. Mouthfeel body is thin untextured except for the fizzy carbonation also adding to the cloyingly over carbonated beer like this. Drinkability I'm just not into it Lancaster's other beers are much more pleasant and agreeing toward my tastes.

A faint off-white froth attempts to form on the surface of this brew and does just manage to skim it for awhile. The beer itself lies somewhere between dark yellow and pale orange. A bit of loose bubbling sticks to the glass sporadically.
The aroma is a bit too artificial for me. Extracts are fine, though not as good as fresh, but there's still some technique to making it more real that isn't executed especially well here. Still, the malts set down the backbone with plenty of wheat, and the strawberry isn't either under or overplayed.
It comes off with a strong sweetness at first, fairly syrupy, then a sour/tart tang kicks in along with the wheat. There's a vague hint of leaf, but it begins seeming a lot like a strawberry soda. Fortunately, malt and hops aren't completely left out of the equation.
I expect the body to be light, and it is, but the feel is slightly improved over both what my expectations would be tasting it and what it's like at the beginning. That said, there's only enough carbonation, crispness and smoothness to be barely better than average. It threatens a little mix of slick and sticky but shies off just as it seems inevitable.

A-Ruddy copper with filtered clarity, offwhite head that settles to very little. Nice color, too bad there is no head.
S-Sweet malts and strawberries. Interesting
T-Definately getting the strawberries, sweet with a bit of tart. Very refreshing and thirst quenching, but not terribly complex.
M-This has a pretty light feel, and is a tad bit overcarbonated, but otherwide fine.
D-Decent drinkable beer. I would try this again, but not sure if I want to grab another right now.

There's a good chance the actions of MCSO posse member Phillip Grigg are what saved the life of Phoenix police Officer Scott Sefranka.
On New Year's Eve a group of suspected armed robbers was running from police when they slammed in to Grigg's car. Grigg saw one of the suspects attack Sefranka. Police said he was shot trying to help the officer who had also been shot.
"What he did that day was truly heroic. He could have been a good witness. He could have called 911. Instead he chose to get involved," said retired master police officer Bill Richardson.
Nearly a decade ago Richardson wrote the Law Enforcement Good Samaritan Law after a cab driver died coming to the aid of a Pima County deputy.
The law makes the person or their survivors eligible for compensation from the crime victim's fund.
"The cap on that is $50,000 which is a couple days in the ICU. Financially it could destroy him and his family and their future," said Richardson.
Although Grigg is a Maricopa County Sheriff's Office posse volunteer, that won't help him when it comes to benefits.
"For a posse member to be covered by the benefits that are afforded a deputy sheriff that was injured or killed in the line of duty, that posse member has to be under the direction and control of a deputy sheriff in the duties assigned to them by the sheriff," said Richardson.
Richardson believes more needs to be done for civilians who risk their lives to help first responders.
"There needs to be a remedy. There needs to be a process so that the state can help him for his efforts," said Richardson.
Richardson said the sheriff's office is going to try and work with the legislature to bring about change.

Nancy's Spare Pair by NancySpare - over 4 years ago
"We were walking in the Susan G. Komen Mother's Day Breast Cancer Walk on Sunday, May 9, 2010. This is my Mom's 4th year doing the walk since she became a survivor. She unfortunately had a single mastectomy because of the cancer, hence the name "Nancy's Spare Pair." The whole group came out in support of my mom, her best friend (a 10 year survivor) and her friend's sister (recently diagnosed, but now a survivor). We raised money and walked to support all survivors as well as to raise awareness for breast cancer research. It was a very successful day."

The rains came, and with them came the realization that we would not play the football game on Friday night in Gettysburg. The team still had high hopes for the game, even though it was postponed until the following night. We weren't really picked to win; however, everyone knew that the impossible might happen: Biglerville might beat the Warriors.
The game began a half an hour earlier the next evening and the field had dried off considerably. I had every intention of going out and playing a great football game right from the start. It was an extremely humid night, and the sweat rolled off my face. Warm-ups were pretty much like playing a game before the actual game. I knew that I would be in trouble because of the amount of energy we were exerting. It was not healthy at all.
The game began, and I was starting at fullback and linebacker, and with all of the special teams. Our team was not doing too badly, however, we were losing after one quarter. Our heads began to droop down onto our chests. The humidity started to work on me by the second quarter because I was playing every down without a break. I was losing a tremendous amount of fluids, and began to have dizzy spells. I knew that I had to get off the field for my own safety, and I pleaded with the coaches to let me take a short break just to regain my senses. They refused and I remained on the field.
There were three minutes left in the half, and the defense coach came out to "talk" to us during a time-out. From the very beginning, he stared at me while he yelled at us and put us down. I tried to maintain my composure as I wobbled on my jellified legs. He then finished off his speech by shouting at me to make more tackles.
I did not understand how I was supposed to play great football when I could hardly stand. The rest of the half went extremely slowly.
The teams jogged off the field and continued to the locker rooms. I didn't make it that far. I had to lay outside on the grass to cool off and get fluids back into my body. The ambulance picked me up about twenty minutes later.
I stayed in the E.R. for about three and a half hours with my parents and girlfriend while I had blood work done, along with other tests. I was really confused about the whole situation, and angry at the coaches because of their ignorance. I felt that I had not been respected as a human being, and that they were worried more about winning the football game than saving the life of a player. I left the team the following Monday.
I received mixed reactions from the team and fans of the team. Many supported my decision, but some showed their disapproval by not talking to me, which I think was childish. One of these people was a very good "friend" of mine for thirteen years and now has not talked to me for a month.
I am still very angry at the coach who came out to the huddle during the time-out. My dealings with him are not over; as for my so-called friend, I do not comprehend what scheme he's trying to pull, but like I said: it's extremely childish.
Throughout all the adversities of the past month, I feel that I made the proper decision, learned a lot about myself as a person and also learned who my true friends really are. t

Eden Court was originally opened in April 1976. At the time, the design was strikingly modern. As the only large scale performance venue in the region, the building was designed by architects Law & Dunbar-Nasmith to house all types of performing arts from opera to popular music, concerts, ballet, modern dance, drama and films.
Following a major appeal and two years of closure, Eden Court reopened in November 2007 as the one of the best equipped arts centres in the country. The Victorian Bishop's Palace and 1976 theatre, both Grade A Listed, were retained and two new extensions added providing a second theatre, two new cinemas, two dance and drama studios and three floors of purpose built dressing rooms. The architects Page/ Park have successfully brought together buildings from thee different centuries to create the biggest arts centre in Scotland.
Thorough restoration of the Bishop's Palace has brought back some of its former Victorian glory and outside, a new entrance and landscaped grounds means Eden Court 'faces' the city centre allowing visitors to finally enjoy the riverside setting.
Capacity: 840.

DALLAS - A top British home furnishings designer is ready to debut his unique collection in Dallas.
Timothy Oulton will open the doors of his first stand-alone U.S. store to the public this weekend.
Thursday morning, News 8 got an exclusive first look at the over-the-top showroom located at Central Expressway near Knox and Henderson. Some of the features to the store include a 5,000 gallon aquarium with a yellow submarine and red, white and blue fish, plus a London cafe with sweets and tea.
"Well, we like to do things a little differently," said Anthony Pearce, the marketing director for Timothy Oulton. "We sort of do things big, bold, red-blooded, a bit daring, sometimes a little bit off the wall. And, we had this idea that this would resonate with the people in Dallas and in Texas. When people come in we hope that they see something that they haven't seen before."
The Timothy Oulton showroom opens Saturday.

Series 65
Regulation of Investment Advisors - State Registered Investment Advisers
Some IAs must register with the state rather than with the SEC. We will explain how to determine which registration is required below. If you register through your state, you are regulated by the Uniform Securities Act instead of the Investment Advisers Act of 1940. Under the Uniform Securities Act, you must register as an investment adviser if you provide any of the following services for compensation:
Exclusions from this definition include:
- Engaging in the business of advising others, either directly or indirectly (such as via a newsletter), as to the value of securities or the advisability of investing in securities; OR
- Issuing analyses or reports on a regular basis as part of a business; OR
- Providing investment advisery services to others in a financial planning practice.
- Only deal with institutional investors OR
- Have five or less clients in that state
|Look Out!
Note that the definitions and exclusions for state covered advisers and federal covered advisers are similar but not identical.
Exclusions from this definition include:
- Banks, savings and loans, trusts
- Professionals, such as lawyers and accountants, whose advice is incidental to their professional practice
- Broker-dealers whose advice is incidental to the conduct of their business and who receive no special compensation for these services
- Publishers, employees, or columnists of bona fide newspapers, news magazines, business or financial periodicals, and owners and employees of cable, radio, or TV networks where the content is NOT based on the specific investment situation of each client
- Federal covered advisers
|Look Out!
Notice that this Uniform Securities Act definition for IAs who must register if they have out of state clients is very different from the one under the Investment Advisers Act of 1940 mentioned in the earlier section. On the exam, make sure you determine whether a question is about a state-registered or a federally-registered IA.

Over the last three weeks, we at Iraq Veterans Against the War (IVAW) have watched with dread the endless bombing of Gaza, leading to the senseless killing of now more than 1,300 Palestinians and the destruction of their homes, lives and livelihoods.
In the past we have announced our support of the right to self-determination for Palestinians, alongside our firm conviction of the illegality and dehumanizing nature of the blockade of Gaza and the occupation of the West Bank. This moment is no different.
The US government has continually provided arms and money to Israel to the tune of $3.1 billion per year. It is our own country's weaponry that is causing the deaths of entire families in Gaza. We see it as our duty to resist the steady grinding militarization of our foreign and domestic policies and we stand in solidarity with those resisting the same efforts overseas, both the Palestinian people and the Israeli reservists who have refused to serve in this conflict.
June 19, 2014
U.S. Department of State
Attention: Secretary John Kerry
2201 C Street NW
Washington DC 20520
Fax: 202 647 3344
Dear Secretary Kerry:
The US invasion of Iraq in 2003 incited a previously unimaginable deepening of sectarian divisions among the people of Iraq following the overthrow of the repressive Ba'athist regime of Saddam Hussein. The US government and its occupation forces set in place the most serious sectarian and ethnic tensions in Iraq's modern history and have yet to address the humanitarian catastrophe set in motion by the war. On the 10-year commemoration of the US invasion in March 2013, the Right to Heal initiative brought together Iraqi social justice organizers and unionists with US military veterans opposed to the war and our group of politically-aligned organizations to call for reparations for the people of Iraq for the disastrous legacy US forces left behind.
Iraq Veterans Against the War (IVAW) – an organization comprised of individuals who served or continue to serve in the US Military following September 11, 2001 – calls on Congress, the President, and his administration to reject the use of violence and militarism in response to the current outbreak of violence in Iraq.
Many of our members deployed to Iraq during the recent US occupation. Those of us who were there know first hand that US military solutions in Iraq do not serve the interests of the Iraqi people. We advocate for the self-determination of all people, in this case the people of Iraq. Any solution to this crisis must come from them.
When the United States invaded and occupied Iraq, the formerly secular country was destabilized. The United States and the Department of Defense intentionally created and agitated sectarian divisions that would not have otherwise existed. The result of this is what we see today, and Iraqi civilians are paying for it.
Dear Friends of IVAW,
I hope this letter finds you well. Some of you I have gotten to know fairly well, others I have only just met, and for many of you this is our first introduction, but I write to let all of you know of a wonderful opportunity to get involved with Iraq Veterans Against the War (IVAW).
In August I will begin law school and so must leave my position as the Operations Coordinator at IVAW. As such, IVAW is looking for an ambitious individual to take on the role I must vacate.
Job Announcement
Iraq Veterans Against the War (IVAW) is seeking an Operations Coordinator to support organizational operations by maintaining office and financial systems. The primary work of the Operations Coordinator consists of tracking and maintaining day-to-day finances, maintaining the office, providing primary support to the Director of Development, and assisting with membership and communication tasks.
Candidates should possess strong skills in writing, editing, and proofreading, data-entry, financial management, and should be very well organized. Ideal candidates are those who are familiar with the work of IVAW, have a strong knowledge of the database "Salsa," a background in financial management or in IT. Fluency in more than one language is preferable but not required. A detailed job description can be found below.
Vets Outraged by Political Gamesmanship Over Veterans Healthcare Bill
Yesterday members of Iraq Veterans Against the War (IVAW) were disgusted to witness the Republican party engage in acts of cynical political maneuvering. A historic veterans omnibus bill (S.1982) that would have increased the quality of life for millions of veterans instead became a political stunt designed to push through dangerous and diplomatically irresponsible sanctions on Iran. When that stunt didn't work the GOP blocked the passage of a bill that would have opened up 27 new VA health clinics, strengthened one of many health programs like sexual trauma care and gone far in reducing the benefits backlog. These are just a few of the many opportunities to improve the lives of veterans that political gamesmanship squandered.
"Why would Congressional members put Iran sanctions into a bill meant to care for so many veterans? The answer is that in the end members of Congress like Mitch McConnell don't actually care about healing veterans." said Matt Howard, Marine veteran and Communications Director of IVAW.
IVAW is open to Active Duty, National Guard and Reservists who have served since 09/11/2001. You are not alone.

PITTSBORO — Developer Tim Smith leaned on the railing of the historic Pittsboro courthouses balcony Monday, watching the people he counted 37 of them who had come to protest Smith and his Preston Development Co.s plans.
Dont give away our leverage tonight. Dont give away our community, a woman called on a bullhorn below. Table the vote, read a handwritten sign.
Half the crowd wore red shirts with the sarcastic phrase PAVE CHATHAM. They had assembled ahead of the Pittsboro Board of Commissioners final round of debate on the master plan for Chatham Park, urging the board to slow down on a community that could bring 60,000 people to Pittsboro over several decades.
Slow down? Smith, who co-owns Preston with Julian Bubba Rawl, asked aloud. Its been 13 months.
He wouldnt be waiting much longer. The Pittsboro Board of Commissioners tackled a final set of issues and later voted 4-1 for Prestons legacy project.
Smiths team has assembled whats believed to be the largest single development plan in North Carolinas history, having bought roughly 7,500 acres over nearly a decade. A broad plan for the new community has been under official discussion in the Chatham County town since last year.
In the final review, the elected board ticked through item after item, declining the mayor and one commissioners pushes for several changes regarding environmental protections and development density.
Commissioner Bett Wilson Foley questioned the developers plans to build near Jordan Lake and the Haw River. She said the developer wanted to build at five times the densities that the towns land-use plan has recommended near the Haw River since the early 90s.
It says one (residential unit) per 5 acres. Not one per 1 acre, she said, referring to the towns earlier plans.
She added later that the board should decide how committed we are to protecting the drinking water for all these different people that depend on the Haw River.
Commissioner Michael Fiocco said the lower density was meant for well and septic systems, not the connected utilities planned for Chatham Park. The board by a 4-1 vote declined Foleys move to request a reduction of density or expand buffers, with Foley dissenting.
Next, Mayor Bill Terry decried the projects density and minimalistic plans for natural and park space.
Asking for the absolute maximum density and absolute minimum of parks and open space does not seem acceptable to me, said Terry, who did not have a vote on the project, drawing applause from the crowd.
Fiocco contended that the project exceeded the towns requirements for natural space and argued that it wouldnt be as dense as some smaller subdivisions in the area. He also argued for the economic benefits of density.
The board again voted 4-1 to accept the plan as it was, with Foley dissenting.
On the topic of parks, Terry questioned whether the plan would inappropriately allow private recreation areas to count toward a fraction of the required parkland for the development. The board voted to strike that allowance, and the developer agreed.
With the plans final approval, Pittsboro appears set to follow the development pattern of cities like Reston, Va., Columbia, Md., and Irvine, Calif. Those cities were seeded by single companies in the 1960s and 1970s, their populations today ranging up to 230,000. Pittsboro, of course, already has a long history and a population of 4,000.
This is a fine opportunity for Pittsboro and Chatham County to gain this economic development, said Commissioner J.A. Farrell, praising the plan as well thought-out.
Its not going to be perfect, said Commissioner Beth Turner. But she too saw undeniable appeal in the opportunity, she said.
The promise is that a planned citys smart growth will beat the woes of sprawl. Chatham Parks master plan calls for a web of roads and paths to connect its residential neighborhoods, its high-tech employers, its village centers and historic downtown Pittsboro itself.
The developers also claimed that the rapid evolution of sewage and utility technology will ease the development of Chatham Park. The mayor questioned whether the town could keep up with demand.
Commissioner Pamela Baldwin said the plan met her long-stated goals and would help Pittsboro avoid strip malls popping up everywhere.
Planned growth. Thats what its always been, she said.
The decision came about three hours into the meeting, with the commissioners splitting 4-1 against Foley. The last minutes of debate centered on how the town and developer would draft further agreements.
I dont want to be handed another plan from the developers and nibble around the edges until Im marginally satisfied with it, Terry said.
Fiocco argued that the current plan had been through a rigorous debate.
I think this master plan has matured, and I think its the product of a lot of hard work, he said.
Many of Mondays questions of governance and planning will play out further over the next two years.
With the approval, the town also may see the first construction on Chatham Park during those next two years. Mondays vote allows development to begin immediately for up to 5 percent of the projects residential areas and 15 percent of its commercial space.
The plans critics will be watching closely.
We just ask that you dont disappoint us, Terry said as he offered his congratulations. Live up to that reputation.

Eagles Earn Top Billing in A-Sun Media Poll; Kennedy and Hansen Named All-Conference
FORT MYERS, Fla. – The FGCU women's basketball squad, led by Preseason Defensive Player of the Year Brittany Kennedy (Spokane, Wash./Lewis and Clark HS/Oregon State) and Preseason All-Conference choice Sarah Hansen (McKean, Pa./General McLane HS), earned top billing in the Atlantic Sun Conference preseason media poll and finished second in the coaches' poll, the conference announced on Thursday.
In the media poll, the Eagles took 14 of 19 first place votes, with Stetson picking up the other five. This marks the fourth consecutive year that the media selected the Green and Blue to win the regular season crown and the second year in a row that the press has predicted FGCU to win the A-Sun Tournament championship.
In the coaches' poll, FGCU took two of the 10 first place votes to finish second with 89 points, while Stetson received the remaining eight votes and finished first with 98 points.
"Being picked first in the media poll and second in the coaches' poll is quite a compliment to our program," said three-time A-Sun Coach of the Year Karl Smesko. "We have a lot of new players; hopefully, we will all work together to create a special season."
The Eagles return six players, including starters Kennedy and Hansen, from last year's squad that finished with a 29-3 overall record and verified the conference's third-ever unbeaten regular season (18-0) by cruising through the Atlantic Sun Tournament and taking the league's automatic berth into the NCAA Tournament.
Kennedy led FGCU in assists (3.5) and steals (2.4) and was second on the team in rebounds (4.8). The Oregon State transfer ranked second in the conference in steals (in A-Sun Regular Season games) and registered a theft in 20 of 24 games played, including eight steals at Lipscomb on Jan. 14. The senior showed her ability to be a lock-down defender during the season when she held A-Sun leading scorer Briana Williams (Mercer) to three points and seven points in their two meetings and forced 2012-13 A-Sun Preseason Player of the Year Victoria McGowan (Stetson) into 12 turnovers in two games. Kennedy also helped limit 2012 A-Sun Freshman of the Year Taylor Mills (Kennesaw State) to six points on 3-of-10 shooting and five turnovers in their A-Sun semifinal matchup (Mar. 2).
"Brittany is an excellent point guard and very deserving of her preseason accolades," said Smesko. "She is the best on-ball defender that we have had at FGCU."
Hansen, who earned her second spot on the College Sports Madness Preseason A-Sun first team earlier this week, excelled both athletically and academically in 2011-12, earning Full Court Mid-Major All-American Honorable Mention honors, the A-Sun and DI-AAA ADA Women's Basketball Scholar-Athlete of the Year award, the A-Sun Tournament MVP, a Capital 1 Academic All-District 4 first team selection and FGCU's first unanimous A-Sun All-Conference first team status in program history. The redshirt junior finished the season averaging a team-best 14.3 points and 6.3 rebounds and ranked second on the team in steals (2.0) and blocks (23). She also ranked in the top-15 in the A-Sun in six categories (points, rebounds, FG Pct., FT Pct., steals, blocks) and 18th in the nation in field goal percentage (.524). She has climbed to No. 7 on the school's all-time scoring list with 884 points and sits fifth on the career rebounds list with 388 (153o-235d).
"Sarah has had two outstanding seasons for us," Smesko said. "She worked hard this summer and during our preseason workouts, and is primed for an even better season this year."
For the second time in conference history, the A-Sun let the fans decide preseason awards via Facebook. Stetson's Victoria McGowan was picked as the Preseason Player of the Year, while the Eagles were picked to win the regular season title and Kennedy was tabbed the fans' Preseason Defensive Player of the Year.
FGCU will open the program's 11th season against Division II Warner on Saturday, Nov. 10 at Alico Arena.
FGCU season tickets can be purchased in person at the Alico Arena ticket office or by phone at 239-590-7145. The FGCU ticket office is open from 9 a.m. – 5 p.m. from Monday through Friday.
Combined season tickets for both the men's and women's teams are available again for a combined 50 percent discount. Season tickets for either the men's and women's program range from $99-$279, while a combined season ticket (both teams) ranges from $149-$419 depending on the seat location and whether or not an individual is a renewal or new purchaser.
Fans can follow FGCU on Twitter (@FGCU_WBB) and Instagram (@FGCUWbb) and on Facebook by liking FGCU Women's Basketball (www.Facebook.com/FGCUWbb).

Despite some clear eyes and full hearts among the relatively small but passionate fan base of the greatest high school football TV series ever created, Coach Taylor, Mrs. Coach and the Dillon Panthers won't be coming to a big screen.
That's according to filmmaker Peter Berg, who directed the original "FNL" motion picture and developed and adapted it for television.
Berg told Collider.com that although the idea of continuing the story of the Taylors and/or some of the other beloved characters from the TV show has had some support, it doesn't look likely.
"We talked about it, some people thought it was a good idea, some didn't," he said. "I've come to believe it's probably not a good idea and I seriously doubt it's going to happen."
Connie Britton, who played Tami Taylor, was reportedly in favor of the idea, but her on-screen hubby, Kyle Chandler, was not.
Berg's most recent film is "Lone Survivor," which chronicles the true story of a Navy SEAL mission in Afghanistan.
The original "Friday Night Lights" film, starring Billy Bob Thornton, was an adaptation of a nonfiction book. The TV show was inspired by that account but told the stories of a fictional coach, his family, and his players. A new feature film would've picked up story lines from the TV show.

Police tell News Leader Nine a tattoo parlor burglary may be connected to a deadly shooting that took place at Courtesy Shuttle in Columbus, Ga. on New Year's Eve.
Albert Colden, known to many as "Alley Cat", is the owner of Alley Cat's Elite Tattoo World. He says someone broke into his business on the same day as the Courtesy Shuttle shooting, and stole some TV's.
Colden has surveillance footage of the burglary, and now warns that he is ready to protect his business from any further issues. "Get you some good locks. Get you some guns. Protect yourself, because that's the only thing people can do to protect themselves this day and age," he says.
Officers say 21-year-old Achievia Upshaw was killed by a worker at Courtesy Shuttle when she and a friend tried to rob the business. The other suspect was wounded and sent to Midtown Medical Center.

East Lancashire mum pleads guilty to child cruelty
Updated 1:23pm Wednesday 19th February 2014 in News
A MUM from Oswaldtwistle has admitted cruelty to her baby boy after initially denying the charge in court.
Tracy McKenzie had gone on trial on Monday, along with Scott Colman, after their three-month-old son was found to have suffered a fractured skull and bleeding on the brain.
The couple, of New Lane, had both denied cruelty to the child, but McKenzie yesterday pleaded guilty to the main charge in front of the jury at Burnley Crown Court.
Jurors then returned a guilty verdict, as governed by court procedures.
Prosecutors said they would not pursue a second charge of cruelty to a child, which related to the baby's twin.
McKenzie, 40, will be sentenced at a later date and was granted bail.

Colman, 30, denies both charges and remains on trial.
The court will today decide how to proceed with his case.
Judge Andrew Woolman told jurors: "Miss McKenzie has admitted in front of you just now that she neglected one of the twins.
"That amounts to the offence of cruelty to a child."
On Monday, the court heard the baby's head injuries may have been the result of his head being hit against a flat surface or struck with a blunt instrument.
He also suffered fractures to five ribs, two vertebrae and a leg, the court heard.
Prosecutor Hugh McKee said the allegations emerged after Colman took the baby to the Royal Blackburn Hospital in December 2012, as he was unwell.
When the injuries were discovered, medics requested that the boy's twin be examined, and they found a healing injury caused by someone 'forcefully' gripping his left arm, the court was told.

A Waltham woman is suing the Weston Golf Club, claiming an employee sexually harassed her, according to the Boston Herald.
Monique Karian quit her job as a waitress at the Weston Golf Club in 2011 after a chef there allegedly groped her while other male workers cheered him on, according to the newspaper. She also claims employees called her names.
Karian's attorney, William T. Harrington, claimed the club never investigated the allegations, according to the Herald. The club's attorney claimed Karian is "paranoid" and is assuming the club workers were talking about her when they called her names.
Now, a federal judge in Boston is mulling the club's request to dismiss the suit, according to the paper.

- I really wanted a ring with not so much 'bling' so we picked this ring set, with a low carat weight. I am more than happy with my beautiful engagement ring/wedding band, and the price is an extra bonus! The pictures of this rings really do not do them justice one bit. Although if your looking for diamonds that are large and easily spot-able this is not the set for you. If you want a little glisten in the light, this is GREAT for you!! I am only sporting the engagement ring now, but I can not WAIT until I get to wear the wedding band with it!!

Review by Stephanie of SuperJeweler
The marquise shaped diamond is my favorite diamond cut for a number of reasons, not the least of which is how it often appears larger than round or princess cut diamonds of the same carat weight! The traditional lines of this bridal set, combined with its sterling silver setting, make it a true gem that's super affordable.

I've thrown this thing around, caught in the rain, and abused the hell out of it. This bag has held up great. I would like to see a soft pocket for items like cell phone, glasses and other sensitive items but definitely not a deal breaker. Great bagRead All Reviews

colze in Western Australia
Was looking for a new goggle case and couldnt decide on what to get. i dont typically like ogio products after buying an ogio gear bag that didnt fit size 11 tech 10 boots.... however this goggle case is pretty awesome. definately better quality then the scott case and prob better then the fox case as well. beware that it is pretty big!! quite a bit bigger then i was expecting. takes up a lot of room in your gear bag. think this is because it has numerous additional pockets and padding which make it quite bulky. i would have preferred that it was a bit smaller but thats just me being picky. otherwise excellent quality case.Read All Reviews

Portrait painter Christopher Banahan is an award winning artist, who creates contemporary portraits. He has built up a reputation for his distinctive style of portrait painting, often creating an "antique appearance" giving the paintings a sense of intrigue and mystery. His work is in the collection of the Arts Council, the Office of Public Works, the A.I.B. Bank Collection, Microsoft and Dáil Eireann. His work can be found in many private collections in Ireland, Europe and U.S.A.
After developing a series of childrens portraits for a fairy tale story, he has built up a reputation for his portraits of children in contemplation, with numerous public commissions, mainly for colleges, hospitals and civic centres, and was chosen to be artist in residence at Stratford College in Dublin, where he was commissioned to portray all the pupils of the school. The portraits were offically unveiled by President Mary McAleese, in December 2002.

COVINGTON - Amanda Henderson, Eastside's only softball senior, had a great game in the circle against Ola on senior night Wednesday.Henderson pitched her fourth perfect game of the season against the Class AAAA No. 7 Lady Mustangs with a 1-0 win. "It's absolutely the best one yet. I knew it was going to be big because they've only lost one game this season," she said. "I was a little nervous, but it feels amazing to have another perfect game on senior night, especially against them." Henderson finished the game with nine strikeouts. "I'm glad we won because you never want to lose on senior night. It just happened that we played Ola on senior night. I didn't mean for it to happen that way," Eastside coach Jason Stokes said. "But a victory is a victory, and I'm mighty proud of the girls." Both Henderson and Ola pitcher Lexi Henderson had a perfect game going through four innings before Taylor Causey ripped a double for the first hit of the game in the bottom of the fifth with two outs. "We had been turning it on with the bats lately," Stokes said. "Our trend has been hit early, don't do anything late. So when we didn't start to hit early I was like 'Oh my goodness, we're in for a long one.'" The Lady Eagles broke the tie when courtesy runner Maryann Fearnow scored on a Savannah Upshaw single. Eastside's other hit was a single by Emily Almond that also came in the fifth inning. "In that (fifth) inning, even the two outs that were made, they were hit very solid. I am pleased with that because it shows that we can hit late instead of hitting early." Manny Fils can be reached at email@example.com.
