Eagles Set to Host Santa Clara on Wednesday Afternoon
Fort Myers, Fla. - Ten days after their last game, the Lady Eagles (1-1) return to action tomorrow afternoon to host Santa Clara (0-4) in Alico Arena. Tip-off is set for 3 p.m.
Series Information: First Meeting.
Know Your Opponent: Santa Clara
Bronco Watch
Santa Clara is still searching for win No. 1. Under the direction of first-year head coach Jennifer Mountain, SCU returns six letterwinners and two starters from last season and welcomes five talented newcomers. Forward Gipson leads the team in points and rebounds, averaging a double-double with 13.3 points and 13.0 rebounds per game. Redshirt freshman Rhianna Faithfull and senior Claire Goins lead the team's shooting with a 66.7 and a 64.3 field goal percentage, respectively. Faithfull and Becky Goll are perfect from beyond the arc, and Goins and Elizabeth Doran remain perfect at the charity stripe.
Last Time Out
FLAGSTAFF, Ariz. - The Santa Clara women's basketball team faced its fourth straight setback of the season Monday night at Northern Arizona. The final score in the hard-fought battle was 68-51.
The Broncos (0-4) were led by redshirt freshman Kelli Parker, who had 12 points, and sophomore Lena Gipson, who had 11 points and a game-high seven rebounds. Senior Claire Goins also tied the game-high rebounds.
Santa Clara opened the first half, after winning the tip, with a 4-0 lead on back-to-back jumpers by Gipson. However, at 17:52, Northern Arizona knotted the score on a field goal by Sade Cunningham. The Broncos regained the lead on a layup by Goins, but a three-pointer from Cunningham gave the Lumberjacks their first lead of the game. Santa Clara saw its last lead at 14:45 on free shots by Parker, 8-7. NAU regained control and produced a 15-0 run to claim a 29-12 lead with 6:27 left in the half.
Santa Clara's last field goal was scored at 13:24, but free throws made by Sara Majors, Gipson and Goins helped SCU chip at the lead. At 2:15, Goins cut the lead to 12-points with her two made free throws. Parker executed a jumper with just two seconds left to make the score at the half, 36-22.
NAU started the second half with a 10-2 run to take a 46-24 lead. A three-point play by Alyssa Shoji brought the score under a 20 difference, as did a layup from Majors at 14:26. Both teams were held scoreless for about three minutes before Tiffany Amos' layup put the Lumberjacks up by 21 points, 50-29. From then on, NAU held no less than a 20-point lead over SCU.
With 4:34 left in the game, the Broncos began to cut the deficit. An 11-2 run fueled on layups by Parker and Gipson, and a free shot by Goins, made the score 64-46. Junior Brittany Purvis, an Arizona native, saw action in her first game since the 2006-07 season. She scored a layup at 1:08 to cut the lead to 17-points, 66-49.
The Lumberjacks reached their 68 points on free throws by Jannelle Matthews, but the Broncos had the final say with a field goal by Goins, 68-51.
For the Lumberjacks, Caty Huntington had 16 points, while Cunningham collected 11 points and Lauren Hoisington had 10 points.

Elk camps can have great antics, yet few compare to the camo bikini caper. Here's how it happened: On the way to our Idaho elk camp, we stopped at Cabela's in Boise to pick up some last-minute items. Near the register we spied a special sale on ladies' camo bikini underwear. A buddy suggested, "Why don't you buy a pair and if anyone misses an elk, they'll have to wear them for a day?" Done!
That evening, we all convened at camp, where the ladies' undies were revealed, along with the proposition that any misses meant dressing like a Mrs! With great levity, everyone was in. The next morning, the group scattered to bivouac areas high in the mountains and returned three days later, exhausted but with great tales to tell. One such misadventure included an elk at five yards. "The bull stopped, nearly in touching distance, behind a log," said the completely frustrated hunter. "I aimed carefully and put an arrow solidly into wood. How could I miss?" he ranted.
Within a minute of hearing those words, we brought out the camo bikini bottom. The hunter ripped the garment away and storm off, pouting, to his tent. But minutes later he emerged, wearing tight black boxers (thankfully) under the bikini bottom. The camp went crazy. People fell from chairs and lay on the ground laughing at the sight, made even more humorous by the normally conservative individual who seemed to relish in the stunt. Forget touchdown dances, this was crazy!

Stocks? Traders watch U.S.-Canada hockey showdownFebruary 21, 2014: 3:15 PM ET
Stocks may be back near all-time highs, but traders were barely paying attention to the market Friday afternoon.
They took a break and turned their attention to T.J. Oshie and the rest of the U.S. men's Olympic hockey team, as they faced off against Canada in the semi-finals. Though the game resulted in a 1-0 victory for the Canadians, Americans were hopeful that Team U.S.A. would defeat its biggest rival.
The teams have gone head to head 18 times during the Winter Olympics, more than any other two nations. And for the U.S. team, the history has been painful. During the last Winter Olympics in Vancouver, Sidney Crosby's overtime goal gave the Canadians a gold medal win over their North American neighbors. (Neighbours?)
The last time the Americans won the gold was in 1980, when the U.S. defeated the Soviet Union in the "Miracle on Ice" and then went on to win their final match against Finland.
While the Americans and Canadians are teammates in the NHL, it's all about national pride during the Olympics. And Friday's semi-final match was even more crucial after the U.S. women's team's heartbreaking loss to Canada on Thursday for the Olympic title.
With so much pride on the line, Wall Street traders -- who are usually talking markets all day on Twitter -- were instead chatting about the game, which began at noon on the East Coast.
Sal Arnuk, partner at Themis Trading, admitted he was watching the game and that he was also keeping an eye on tweets from Mark Cuban.
Split Screen - Hockey USA-Canada ; @Mcuban Tweets—
Sal Arnuk (@ThemisSal) February 21, 2014
Leigh Drogen, founder of Estimize, was also focused on the match, tweeting his observations every few minutes.
Americans look nervous, holding sticks too tight, safe is death against a team this talented, gotta take more chances in Canadian end—
Leigh Drogen (@LDrogen) February 21, 2014
Americans are not gonna win this game playing defense the whole time, too little puck possession on this big ice—
Leigh Drogen (@LDrogen) February 21, 2014
Michael Antonelli, an equity sales trader at Robert W. Baird & Co., joked that his day was over and was also commenting on the game.
olympic hockey is incredible. Why can't the NHL capture this kind of excitement? (outside of playoffs I guess)—
Michael Antonelli (@BullandBaird) February 21, 2014
DailyFX currency analyst John Kicklighter quipped that the hockey game was the only reason for interest in the exchange rate between the U.S. and Canadian dollars.
This Hockey game is going to be the FX market's peak interest in USDCAD for a long time—
John Kicklighter (@JohnKicklighter) February 21, 2014
Canada scored in the second period and the U.S. failed to counter. Canada fan and hockey buff Keith McCullough, CEO of Hedgeye Risk Management, had a simple tweet about moving on to the gold medal match against Sweden for the gold medal on Sunday (McCullough had tried to buy the Phoenix -- and soon to be Arizona -- Coyotes hockey team.)

Women in Engineering
Since its inauguration in 2001, an estimated two million girls nationwide have had a chance to experience engineering firsthand. Here in Lexington, Kentucky, we are hosting this special event for 100 students, parents, teachers and counselors from schools across the state. The day will begin on the University of Kentucky campus with opportunities to learn more about the different engineering fields. As a special part of this year's program, participants will spend the second half of the day visiting Lexmark's worldwide headquarters and research and development campus in Lexington.
Transportation will be provided.
The purpose of the day is to meet women engineers working in fields of electrical, mechanical, computer science and materials engineering. These engineers will describe life in the engineering community as a career professional. Our engineering students will introduce students to the field of engineering and encourage them to continue their study of math and science so they will be qualified to study engineering. Parents, teachers and counselors will also benefit from the day's events gaining information to assist their students make educated decisions on career choices.

PHOENIX (AP) -- A judge has postponed sentencing for a U.S. Border Patrol agent who admitted smuggling marijuana while on duty along the Arizona-Mexico border. Agent Aaron Anaya was scheduled to be sentenced Monday, but U.S. District Judge Roslyn Silver postponed the 25-year-old agent's punishment hearing until Sept. 16 and required lawyers on both sides to make an additional court filing. The possible punishment for Anaya ranges from a mandatory five-year minimum sentence up to life in prison for his guilty plea to possessing a firearm in furtherance of a drug trafficking offense. Authorities say investigators conducting aerial surveillance in southwestern Arizona saw Anaya load marijuana bundles that had been dropped over the border fence from Mexico into his patrol vehicle on Dec. 2 in between Yuma and Wellton.

The mother of a valley teen who was shot to death overnight is speaking to FOX 10. The 17-year-old girl and her 25-year-old boyfriend were found dead inside their east Phoenix home Tuesday morning.
And police are now looking for this man -- Hector Karaca. He had numerous run-ins with the law and was released from prison about a month ago.
The victims lived at a home near 27th Street and Indian School Road, but their car was found several miles away near 19th Avenue and Buckeye.
Police believe the suspect stole it and then set it on fire.
One of the victim parents own the property and the couple lived on a back house on the property. Thanks to witnesses who placed the suspect at the scene and saw him take off, police are confident they know who the killer may be.
25-year-old Joe Alonso Villa and 17 year-old Kristen Bianca Furgeri had been seeing each other for about a year.
"She was doing wonderfully; she was getting ready to graduate. She was going to get her driver's license. He had just proposed to her and she was going to get married. She was really happy and then this happened," said Sandra Furgeri, Kristen's mother.
Furgeri's mom moved to Montana for medical reasons and her daughter stayed in school here. She never felt her daughter was in any danger.
"If I had that feeling I would have forced my daughter to come back and live with me here. I would have done something different."
Police tell us the suspect, 24-year-old Hector Karaca, was released from prison earlier this year and may have been staying with the couple.
Monday night he was with spotted with the two before the shots rang out and witnesses saw him get into this white Hyundai and drive off.
Villa recently bought that car for his girlfriend.
"It was her first car, she was excited to get her license, she was going to get it this week."
Early Tuesday morning police found the car torched in an alley near 19th Avenue and Buckeye near downtown Phoenix. A neighbor called it in.
"I heard the loud explosions first and my wife goes what was that and I go, I don't know let me go check. I opened up the doors and then I see the light blazing and the smoke," says Gabriel Perez.
Police are on the hunt for Karaca as they try to piece together what led to the shooting. At this point, the motive isn't clear.
"It is heart wrenching. It has ripped my heart and my spirit right out of me. That was my baby girl."
Karaca has number of distinguishable tattoos including the word "Tucson" on his back and the name "Chavez" on his stomach.
He also has the words "south side" tattooed on his forearms.

Hi, Tom here.
Learning how to cut weight is a minefield but I think I've been helping some of you out there. I've noticed my site has been getting a lot of views in the last couple of days. Hopefully I've helped some people so they can crush their competition and come out on top. As a thank you, today I want to go a little further and reveal a complete system I show people when they want to know how to cut weight fast.
When I started this website on weight cutting I wanted to help people like my nephew, people that are maybe under a lot of pressure to make weight and do well. It doesn't matter how old you are though, generally weight cutting really sucks. You feel like crap, your metabolism is shot, you put your body through the ringer. And then you have to wrestle! That isn't a formula for placing well. Sometimes techniques like spitting in cups, working out in plastics, staying in the sauna for hours, have helped some guys get killed.
Anyway, the system I mentioned earlier is the easy weight cutting system by Steve Preston. Its a set of modules that you can either read or watch online once you get access. When I saw his system I found us agreeing on many points, but there was also a lot that I didn't know compared to him. Makes sense, Steve has been training athletes for more than 20 years.
He knows what hes talking about, down to the science of cutting weight and sports performance. Steve does a good job of breaking it down though. Personally, sometimes I wished he went into the science of it a little more at times but thats me. The main thing is, this guy has put together a complete no nonsense system for cutting weight. Its EASY, its SAFE and its EFFECTIVE without sacrificing performance. Thats what you need with a good method for how to cut weight.
I've recommended it to people I know before but for some reason I tried to keep it hush hush. Now I've got a website trying to show as many people as I can about cutting weight, I guess it makes sense that I recommend it here.
Easy Weight Cutting is a system I've seen people use to make weight easily, while still being able to wrestle.

For The Herald Bulletin
ANDERSON, Ind. —
The 2013 track season got off to a slow start due to Mother Nature's cruel joke of having it sleet and snow in late March and early April. Now that is all in the rearview mirror, the Madison County area boys track teams can get down to business — chase an Indiana High School Athletic Association state championship.
As the action unfolds tonight, here are a few things to keep an eye on:
Can Anderson or Pendleton Heights overtake defending sectional champion and event host Mount Vernon? These three track teams have become familiar foes, and are the top of the class in Sectional No. 22. This battle will likely come down to the wire and make for some nail-biting action.
"Mount Vernon is pretty well stacked up in the middle distance and distance events," Anderson coach Cary House said. "They counter really nicely our speed because we are stacked up with speed this year. The balance of the two will make for a pretty interesting sectional."
Jalin Beard and Dorian Wilson will continue to lead Anderson in the sprint events, while Jaylen Piece, Anderson's top point earner, will contend for the sectional crown in both hurdle events as well as a member of the 4X100 and 4X400 relay teams.
That leaves the field events up for grabs. Pendleton Heights Skyler Prol will be a contender in the shot put and discus throw. He has excelled in these two events this year and shows no sign of slowing down.
"Pendleton is kind of the wild card," House said. "They have some strong guys in field and of course they are always strong distance events. Their distance runners are capable of winning those events at sectional — it's a little scary."
House said the sectional title will likely come down to where each of the teams' second-finisher places.
Best of the rest. The remaining area teams are not likely to capture a sectional crown, but look for several individuals to move on to run in the regional round.
Frankton's Bobby Brown has run well in the 110- and 300-meter hurdles. In the Central Indiana Conference (CIC), he earned a second-place finish in the 110 with a 15.58 and a first-place finish with a 41.05.
Liberty Christian's DeShon Gibbs, Franklin Nunn and Austin Caster have post times this season that are fast enough that a top-four finish is within reach. Nunn's personal best this season in the 200 was 23.23, while Gibbs posted an 11.38 in the 100. Caster should be able to advance with his 44.23 time in the 300 hurdles.
"We never talked about getting out of sectional with these kids," Liberty Christian coach Paul Jessup said. "The big focus always has been and will continue to be to do the best with what you have right now and let the chips fall where they may."
Are there any sleepers who can make a run into the regional round? Matt Pattison from Madison-Grant has run well this season. He posted an 11.57 in his second-place finish at the Central Indiana Conference (CIC) 100-meter dash and a 23.64 in the preliminary race, before capturing first place in the 200.
Daleville's Dalen Beck and Alexandria's Craig Doty will carry momentum from their recent tournament crowns in the high jump. Beck, the Delaware County champion, cleared a 6-02, while Doty's best at the CIC meet was 6 feet.

À La Carte Excursions | General Information
Add To Plan
Nice is the undisputed Queen and capital of the French Riviera and this excursion provides for the perfect opportunity to discover Nice at a leisurely pace. Then enjoy the equally enchanting Cannes aboard a tourist favorite, the Little Train.
You will begin your tour with a scenic 90-minute drive to Nice where upon arrival, you will drive down the well-known Promenade des Anglais, a three-mile-long seafront boulevard that follows the curve of the picturesque Bay of Angels and is fringed with palm trees and colorful flowers.
Leaving your coach behind, you will have 1 hour of free time to enjoy the sights and atmosphere of this popular Riviera resort town. Take a stroll along the beachfront promenade, wander through the old town and perhaps purchase some local specialties or a souvenir. All too soon, it's time to re-join your coach and travel back to Cannes for your tour on the Little Train.
Popular with both the young and the young-at-heart, the Little Train is a delightful and unusual way to discover Cannes. Climbing aboard this small, open-air tourist train you will be treated to a narrated panoramic ride through Cannes. Travel down La Croisette, the most popular avenue of this seaside resort, viewing the most prestigious palace hotels, beautiful beaches, deluxe boutiques and of course, the sumptuous yachts in Port Canto. You will also view the Casinos, Rue d'Antibes and last, but not least, the Palais des Festivals. This iconic location is the meeting point of the greatest international film stars each May during the annual Cannes Film Festival.
At the conclusion of your tour, the train will drop you at the pier.
Please note: Walking on this tour is mainly at the guest's discretion during free time. The tour is not available to wheelchair guests and those with mobility concerns are cautioned to evaluate their personal level of ability and stamina.

Found on Santa Fe Craigslist: Baby shower for a low-income family
Usually, the Found on Santa Fe Craigslist blog is reserved for tongue-in-cheek repostings of ridiculous Southwest furniture, unicorn mirrors, semi-used magical equipment and the like. But this one isn't. I'd just like to share this woman's request for help with diapers, a double stroller and a baby swing. Her husband's work hours were cut, and they're expecting a medically unforeseen visit from the stork. If you have a little to spare, two struggling parents in Santa Fe county could use it.

Read: Wanting To Play The First Game In An Empty Arena Or In Silence
My hope: The NHL-NHLPA solves this thing and in the first game back they play to a completely empty arena. #wonthappen #empoweringfans—
steve simmons (@simmonssteve) December 06, 2012
Dave Stubbs said "When fans return to eventual 1st game, and they will, I suggest they sit in total silence. Pin-drop silence. Deafening silence"
Adam Rotter: I've heard from a few different readers about an idea like this. I just think that most people are going to move on from the lockout as soon as it ends since all most people want is for them to come back to the ice. Especially with a team like the Rangers with the expectations being set out for them and wanting to see Rick Nash's first game at the Garden.


text: I am always fascinated by the unusual. Here is a picture form RPRU of an MD with half track kit. MD was a Farmall M that started on gasoline and then switched over to diesel when the engine was warm. No pony motor. The half track kits were an aftermarket company, sherman I think, but not sure. It was steered with the steering wheel, sometimes assisting with the use of brakes.

Salomon Toundra Mid WP
4-star: 0
3-star: 0

Best winter rambling boots, period. I have had these…
Price Paid: $180
Best winter rambling boots, period. I have had these for 3 months. Snowshoeing in the White Mts of NH, rambles in Maine, sub 0 temperatures on an organic farm in upstate NY, and a few midnight excursions into the wilderness cover a few of the activities I have used these boots for.
A pair of wool socks underneath keep feet quite warm (not overheating). Best pair of winter ramble boots around.
Only criticism I have is that fact that some time and ideas need to go to the lacing system. If you spend hours immersed in nature, these are the boots for you. Except no substitute.
And Salomon, if you need any one to test gear, sign me up. Be well!
Get this boot. No seriously, that is the review. Get…
Materials: synthetics
Use: Keeping my feet from falling off when it's -55celsius out
Break-in Period: none
Weight: lighter than you'd believe
Price Paid: Pro-Deal
Get this boot.
No seriously, that is the review. Get them.
What? You want to know why? Ok...
-They are light. For how tall and warm these boots are, they are surprisingly light.
-Ease of entry. Laces are easy and quick to do up for such a tall boot, and the boot really helps you when you are pulling them on or off.
-Warm! I haven't tried it yet. But I could probably stand in a snowbank all day with these on, and my feet definitely will not be cold. Plus, even when I was running hard, trying to test these boots, I did not feel like my feet were sweating too much.
-Functional. Windproof, snowproof, waterproof, great traction on snow and ice. If you're buying this boot, you probably need it.
So again, go buy them. Your feet will thank you if they spend anytime outdoors in the snow and cold.
Oh one thing tho, these boots feel great with a roomier fit. I usually wear a size 9 in boots, but I got these in a size 10 and they fit amazingly well.

The Salomon Toundra Mid WP Men's Snow Boot is built for extreme environments. Designed to keep feet warm to -40C/-40F. This boot can handle anything you can throw at it when winter is concerned. The Toundra is the warmest boot Salomon makes.
- CampSaver.com refers to the men's version
It could be because this boot is at home both in town, and on the tundra, that they named it the Men's Salomon Toundra Mid WP Winter Boot. Or maybe someone hiccupped when they were typing it, either way, this stout waterproof boot is comfort rated to negative 40 degrees F thanks to an insulation initially developed for NASA spacesuits and now used by Salomon. Synthetic leather and nylon make up the outer layer, while a plush synthetic fur helps trap additional heat inside the boot. Then there's the Spaceloft insulation between. All this sits atop a die cut EVA footbed and a molded EVA midsole. Then there's the protective rubber toe and heel caps, and the non-marking Winter Contagrip rubber outsole. From snowmobiling in Alaska, to an evening traipsing through the slush in NYC, lace up the Toundra Mid WP Winter Boot for men from Salomon.

Men's Hoops Pulls Out 78-73 Win at Campbell
BUIES CREEK, N.C., - Roman Narmbaye (Chad, Africa) scored a career-high 18 points and pulled down 11 rebounds for his first double-double of the year in FGCU's 78-73 win in Carter Gym over Campbell on Thursday night. With the win FGCU improves to 7-13 overall and evens their A-Sun record to 3-3 while Campbell falls to 8-10 and 3-3 in the league.
Narmbaye set the tone early, scoring two of his 11 first half points on the first possession. The Camels were able to take a 10-6 lead, their largest of the half, at the 13:22 mark with a three by Jonathan Rodriguez. FGCU regained the lead at 12-10 on a triple by Landon Adler (Decatur, Ind.). FGCU was able to take a 23-14 lead with 5:19 to go after a pair of three's by Delvin Franklin (Houston, Texas). Campbell closed the half on an 8-1 run to cut FGCU's lead to 26-25 at the break.
The first 10 minutes of the second half saw seven ties and the lead changed hands four times. The Camels took their largest lead of the game at the 5:20 mark after Jonathan Rodriguez drilled a pair of free-throw's at 62-56. FGCU rallied, and overcame a deficit under the 5:00 mark for the first time this season, outscoring Campbell 11-5 over the next three minutes to regain the lead with the help of the three.
FGCU, which was ice-cold from the free-throw line early, drilled 5-of-6 over the final minute of the game to leave Buies Creek with their second A-Sun road win. In the second half, Casey Wohlleb (Boca Raton, Fla.) took over, scoring all 21 of his points in the second. FGCU was on fire from outside in the second half, going 8-of-13 from downtown and shooting 56.7% from the floor in the second period.
The Eagles recorded a season-high 11 blocks and shot 50.0% from the floor for the second straight A-Sun contest, both wins. The Eagles held Campbell to 35.9% from the floor and just 5-of-15 from the arc.
The A-Sun's leading scorer Jonathan Rodriguez scored 24 points and added 11 rebounds for the Camels. Reggie Bishop added 13 while Preston Dodson added 11 for Campbell.
Wohlleb's 21 led FGCU while Narmbaye's added his 19 points on 8-of-12 shooting while picking up a game-high 11 points and also a career-high five blocks. Rob Quaintance (Glendale, Az.) added 16 points and nine assists.
FGCU now travels to Gardner-Webb on Saturday to complete a three-game road trip. Tip-off is scheduled for 7:15 pm.

2011-12 Women's Soccer Coaches
|2nd Season
|Campbell '05
|(239) 590-7047
Erin Switalski enters her fourth season as an assistant coach on the FGCU women's soccer staff. Switalski's role with the Eagles involves assisting in all aspects of program management. She designs and implements coaching and training strategies to enhance and maximize the overall success of the program, while focusing on goalkeeper specific training. Switalski also coordinates the program's overall recruiting strategy of prospective student-athletes both domestically and abroad. She oversees the academic success of the team, whom currently carry a 3.5 cumulate GPA. Additionally, she coordinates travel and maintains budgetary responsibilities.
In her third season with FGCU, Switalski worked with freshmen Brittany Brown who allowed only 13 goals in 21 appearances while posting 9 shutouts and a 0.65 Goals Against Average. Overall, the team captured their third consecutive Atlantic Sun Regular Season Championship and second consecutive Atlantic Sun Tournament Championship and NCAA Tournament appearance. The program also saw its highest NCAA RPI ranking in school history, finishing the season ranked 53rd out of 327 teams.
In her second season with FGCU, Switalski worked with Atlantic Sun Defensive Player of the Year and All-Conference First-Team goalkeeper Stephanie Powers who, along with A-Sun First-Team selections Kat Hunter & KC Correllus, helped guide the Eagles to 12 shutouts and a 0.111 Goals Against Average during conference play. Powers' 12 shutouts in 2011 also earned her the all-time record for most career shutouts in Atlantic Sun history, a list that Switalski joins her protégé on at the fourth spot. During the 2011 season, the Green and Blue allowed only one goal during conference play and finished on top of the A-Sun for the second straight year. The 2011 season also marked the first opportunity for FGCU to be eligible for NCAA and A-Sun post-season play. The Green and Blue took full advantage of this opportunity by winning the A-Sun Tournament and representing FGCU in the NCAA Tournament, both first time accomplishments in school history.
In her first season, Switalski worked with Atlantic Sun All-Conference First-Team goalkeeper Stephanie Powers and All-Conference defenders Kat Hunter & KC Correllus en route to a league-leading 11 shutouts in 2010. Correllus also garnered A-Sun Defensive Player of the Year honors as the Eagles won their first A-Sun Regular Season title and boasted the conference's top Goals Against Average at 0.51. Under Switalski's watch, the Green and Blue also allowed only two goals during conference play and were one of three teams in the entire nation to give up less than 10 goals the entire season.
In addition to her role with the FGCU women's soccer program, Switalski currently serves as a staff coach for the Florida Olympic Development Program (ODP) and also coaches at the club level with the Lee County Strikers.
Prior to coming to FGCU, Switalski spent three seasons as the assistant coach and recruiting coordinator at Lynn University in Boca Raton, Fla. where she assisted in all aspects of program management and served as Interim Head Coach during the 2009 spring season. Switalski was also responsible for recruiting the 2008 Sunshine State Conference Freshmen of the Year, Melissa Ortiz, who finished her freshmen campaign with 17 goals.
Switalski joined Lynn after a successful professional career in the Danish First Division and additionally served as an assistant coach at Austin Peay State University in Clarksville, Tenn. for two seasons. During her appointment, the Lady Govs starting goalkeeper posted a 1.30 Goals Against Average in 2007, good for fourth in the Ohio Valley Conference.
Prior to embarking on her coaching career, Switalski starred at Campbell University in Buies, NC. A four-year letter-winner with the Lady Camels, she was a three-time Atlantic Sun All-Conference First-Team selection and was named the 2004 A-Sun Tournament MVP after posting shutouts against Gardner-Webb and UCF. She led Campbell to its first A-Sun title and initial appearance in the NCAA Women's Soccer Championship in 2004. She also holds school records for shutouts in a career (26) and season (9 in 2003 & 2004), and career saves (329) while finishing with the second lowest Goals Against Average in a career (1.11).
The Breckville, Ohio, native graduated with a Bachelors of Science in exercise sciences from Campbell in 2005.

Our newest installation is an exhibit and a living garden, located on the museum grounds at the southeast corner of the building. The Ozone Garden is meant to raise awareness of the ozone pollution problem by educating the public about the impacts of air pollution on living systems. The garden will use "bioindicator" plants capable of detecting the presence of ozone air pollution through the development of distinctive leaf symptoms as a visible indicator of ozone pollution.
We are excited about our summer workshops for 2014! We will be meeting every Friday morning from June 6 - August 8 (except July 4).
Registration is now open for our 2014 Summer Workshops for Children! This summer our workshops will focus on Art and Science. The museum will be hosting an exhibition of works by the Guild of Natural Science Illustrators. This rich resource of scientifically informed observation, combined with technical and aesthetic skills, will be our jumping off point for fun and informative explorations of our natural world.
CondorWatch is a new citizen science program which hopes to improve understanding of the California condor and reduce some of the dangers to its existence. The project asks volunteers to look at photographs of condors, identify the tag number of each condor, and describe behaviors that are easily observed to give researchers a peek into the social networks of these iconic birds.
This new exhibit aims to educate the public about the emerging science of evolutionary developmental biology, commonly shortened to "evo devo". Dan Medeiros, Ph.D., a researcher who focuses on evo devo here at the University of Colorado, explains "Evo Devo tries to understand a fundamental question – how does evolution create new things? How do this force of nature, shaping life on the planet, work at fundamental levels?"

With rows in hand and flowing to the beat of the drum, forty-five teams of co-workers from various companies and organizations tucked into a forty foot long boat competing for an infamous clay dragon prize trophy.
"There's first place in four divisions and then a grand champion trophy," said Paige Peterson the Executive Director of the Madison County Chamber of Commerce.
Getting one of those trophies isn't as easy as it looks.
"Oh, it's harder than I ever thought it'd be, the first few times we had were rough runs, but after awhile we kind of got the hang of it," said Mariane Allen, part of the group the "Row Ho Ho's."
Peterson said there's a technique to winning the ancient rowing tradition.
"An in sync team will win all the time over a stronger team, so the goal is to listen to the drummer and paddle to the beat," Petersen explained.
Lisia Spikes, who works for Butler Snow hoped her team would've won their first race, they didn't do so bad, coming in second. Spikes said through the competition she met lots of co-workers she never knew before.
"We're out here like hey knowing each other for the first time I've talked to you on the phone or over email, but I didn't know who you were so it's kind of brought us together," said Spikes.
In addition to the hard work and comradery the "Dragon Boat Regatta" brought out some freedom lots of people typically don't have at work.
"Ya, we're going as pirates, we're the Row Ho Ho's so we're going pirate themed," said Wayne Allen, a NICU nurse for the Children's Healthcare of Mississippi.
Petersen said she hopes to turn the regatta into a fundraiser in the future.

This is the fifth in a series of articles geared toward winning your college fantasy football leagues.
5th Commandment - Thou Shall Wait on Thy Quarterback
If you plan right, your QB will be there. Unless a mega-stud dual threat falls in your lap early in your draft, your best bet is to wait and be one of the last owners in your league to snag a signal caller. Almost every year the top tier of QB's goes way too early.
Once these teams take their first QB they are usually a little behind at either running back or receiver and won't take their second QB for a while; this gives you even more time. In a recent mock draft we took our first QB in the 6th round and he was the 9th QB taken off the board. The name doesn't matter, but we have him projected to score 270 points, plus we think he has tons of upside, but that's neither here nor there. A handful of QBs were both taken in the 3rd and we have them at 297 points and 293 points respectively. Over a 12 week season (that's how we project) that's less than 2 points per week difference between our guy and their guys. In the meantime, while teams were picking those QB's we took two great RBs, two Top 5 WRs and a stud TE. You tell me, who got the better value?
Two rounds later we followed up with our 9th ranked QB, effectively getting our 8th and 11th ranked QB, both of whom we think have upside in the 6th and 8th rounds. We were able to come back with another QB that fast because teams were now scrambling to try and find lightning in a bottle at WR and RB , positions which we had long shored up, and we think are much more important.
If you just look at the pure number of quality QB's out there, this theory holds water. In 1-QB leagues, all you need is any of the top 8-12 QB's, and he will score enough points at the position to keep you in the league. But the value that you added to your roster in the meantime, mainly at RB and WR in those earlier rounds, will carry you to the Playoffs. Our strong belief is that WRs are often the difference maker position in leagues as most guys just don't gravitate toward drafting them. By waiting on QB we get to build hopefully the strongest WR corps in our league and our RBs won't suffer too much.
Worst case scenario, the two QB's we took will be average and we will play matchups to squeeze a little more out of them. Best case scenario is one of them plays like a top 5 QB, effectively making him a 2nd or 3rd round pick, if you compare him to where the other QB's were taken.
The point is, unless a ridicolous mega-star dual threat (think Colin Kaepernick or Johnny Manziel of past years) falls in your lap in Round 1 – wait for a QB. You may not end up with the most exciting QB on the field, but what's more exciting – having the best QB, or hoisting the trophy at the end of the year? So let the other guys waste early picks on QBs, and you sit back and wait for a guy that won't underperform by that much. But you see if they can find a Running Back or Wide Receiver who will perform like the guys you take in the 2nd through 4th rounds.
***DISCLAIMER – There are certain leagues where we DO NOT advocate waiting this long on QBs, and sometimes in fact we go after them early. We touched on this in the 1st Commandment, but here are the examples:
-If your league awards 6 points per pass TD, and/or 1 point per 15 yards passing, QBs REALLY should score a lot more than the other positions, so it would be OK to reach for one of the top 5 QBs. I would look to get one of the best 4 or 5 QBs somewhere in the first three rounds.
-One league I am in let's you flex any position in that spot (QB or Defense included). QBs score the most (as in most leagues), so I make sure to not only NOT wait on a QB, I try to take 2 early. Maybe even 2 within the first 4 rounds, as I want a decided advantage over my competition every week at that position.
-If your league has a two-starting QB system, sometimes I will grab a Top 3 QB in the first couple rounds, and wait to snag my QB2 in the middle rounds.

Bodies found
DENTON COUNTY — A sheriff's deputy found a man and a woman dead of apparent gunshot wounds at a residence east of Denton on Monday, officials said.
Investigators said it appears that the man shot the woman and then took his own life.
The welfare check was prompted by someone who called 911 after the woman failed to show up for a meeting early Monday morning. The caller said she had helped that woman move out of a "domestic disturbance situation."
The caller told dispatchers the woman's car was in the driveway of her home in the 10200 block of Lakeview Drive in Providence Village, but that there was no answer at the door.
A neighbor reported hearing "thumps" and "door slamming" between 4 a.m. and 6 a.m. Monday.
The Denton County Sheriff said the woman had called the agency on Saturday morning, saying she was trying to move out of a house she shared with a boyfriend, but that he was keeping her out.
Deputies who responded said no assault had occurred and that the two had separated to stay with friends.
The identity of the man and the woman and the circumstances surrounding their deaths is under investigation.

Hello. I have searched and found results from years prior.I know this is a duplicate thread but there hasn't been one for while.
Are there any newer human models for Inventor? I currently use iMike but it is rather cheesy looking.
The Human Factors plugin for Solidworks looks like exactly what I want. Has anyone ever bought it and tried exporting the models into a format for use in Inventor? I'd like to avoid using the cheesy free models for sales literature.
Thanks for any suggestions!
Solved! Go to Solution.
try here
Or just fix what you find "cheesy" about imike.. Heck give him a mohawk if you want..
Thank you both greatly. I usually have better luck finding stuff without asking first, but those links are very helpful!
The message below was posted a few months ago. Still sorta cheesy for a 3D human, but at least the sizes are correct:
I've attached a picture of iMan, iMandy and the original iMike for comparison. I wanted to attach the iManikins file here, but it exceeds the forum's size limit. Use the link below to download from my website:

Ok, I have Iman.
I set him to 75th %ile (about 6 foot)
I add our company logo as a decal to the torso and the hat...looks great.
I set him in a pose (say climbing ladder).
I derive him into a part for use in the project as a reference part.
When I create the derive, my decals disappear!
Would this be a BUG or am I missing something?
Hi richos69,
It's not a bug, and you're not doing anything wrong, it's just that Derive Part does not support decals. So you probably need to place the decal again in the derived part.
I hope this helps.
Best of luck to you in all of your Inventor pursuits,

I thought that might be the case (and is what I had done as a workaround in the mean time...bit painfull though...created heaps of extra work.)
Anyone from autodesk care to elaborate why decals are not supported by derive and when should we expect derive to function properly with decals.
I was wondering who can do my 3D model for a percentage or free can you help me with this ?( portable hitch )that fits inside any car or SUV trunk ;this is what i need a 3D model for ! 610-636-4371 if you can help me call .pastor Jonathan firstname.lastname@example.com
