Mansfield-Oliver Ames Girls' Hockey vs. Franklin w 4-3
What a great way to end the season as M/OA defeated Franklin at home 4-3. The girls had a strong 3 period performance coupled with solid goaltending from keeper Shannon Connolly.
The M/OA girls jumped out to a 1-0 lead on a goal from Nora Maclaine in the first period. Franklin would answer in the second but it was short lived. Maclaine scored again unassisted to put the M/OA girls up by one. With 16 seconds left in the period M/OA forward Jacqui Podolski would add to the lead going into the locker room after 2 periods winning 3-1. In the third Franklin would once again answer with a quick goal to bring them within 1 but Jamie Gottwald found the back of the net to make it 4-2 with 10 minutes to play. M/OA found itself in penalty trouble and the Franklin Panthers had a great opportunity to get back in the game. They managed to score on a deflection to cut the lead to 4-3 but to no avail, the M/OA girls would not be denied and secured the victory. Final score 4-3
"The team finished the season with a 3-1-1 record in the final 5 games. It was a great ending to the season for a program that is really starting to come into its own. The players and coaching staff should be proud of their efforts. They deserve the respect they have gained." – Coach O'Heir

Mansfield-Oliver Ames Girls' Hockey vs Whitman-Hanson T 3-3
- The re-match was on tonight between 2 evenly matched teams, Whitman/Hanson and Mansfield/Oliver Ames. M/OA won the first game of the series but with a tournament berth on the line the Whitman/Hanson girls came out to play game 2 with a purpose. They quickly went up 1-0 with a nice goal from Jane Morrisette and that is how it stood after the 1st. The M/OA girls scrambled early in the 2nd to try to counter but the pressure from the W/H team wouldn't allow them to get anything going. W/H quickly took advantage and captain Michaela McIsaac scored to put them up 2-0. M/OA would get a man advantage when the W/H team was called for a trip. With the powerplay unit on the ice the M/OA girls cut the lead in half when Nora Maclaine(26th) scored on a rebound of Victoria O'Heir slapshot. This got the blood flowing for the M/OA girls and before the 2nd period expired Victoria O'Heir(24th) scored to tie the game at 2. In the third it appeared that the M/OA momentum would continue when W/H was called for a cross-check in the first minute of play. The W/H penalty kill turned this opportunity into a nightmare for M/OA when Jane Morrisette would capitalize on a loose puck at their blue line and score a pretty shorthanded goal to put the W/H team up 3-2. The next 10 minutes or so in the third produced some great up and down action but M/OA forward Kerra Anastasia would get the equalizer with less than 5 minutes to play when she found a loose puck in front and popped it home to tie the game at 3. With their tournament hopes on the line and needing a win to advance the W/H coach pulled the goaltender with a little over a minute to play but the M/OA girls held on not allowing a single shot on net. Final score M/OA 3 – W/H 3.

OA-Mansfield Girls' Hockey vs. St. Joseph w 5-0
Tonight the M/OA girls dominated the St. Joseph prep team with a solid 3 period effort. Despite solid goaltending from St. Joes the M/OA girls worked the puck relentlessly in the offensive zone with great passing and puck possession. It wasn't long before one finally made it thorough when Nora Maclaine found the top corner with a pretty wrist shot to put M/OA up 1-0 after the first. In the second M/OA continued its attack and knotted 2 more with goals by Jamie Gottwald (7th) and Victoria O'Heir (20th). In the third St. Joe's came out flying, as expected, but the relentless pressure combined with the excellent defensive protection gave them few good scoring opportunities. Shannon Connolly was up to the task between the pipes and as time started to work against the opponent Nora Maclaine went to work scoring 2 more (21st and 22nd) to seal the deal. Final score M/OA 5 St. Joseph Prep 0.

Mansfield/Oliver Ames Girls' Hockey vs. Westwood L 6-2
- The M/OA girls fell to a very strong, talented Westwood squad tonight 6-2. The M/OA girls seemed to get better, however, as the game progressed led by an outstanding goaltending effort by Shannon Connolly. After falling behind 4-0 after the first period, the girls tightened up their defense in the second but were not able to fully contain the potent Westwood attack. They went into the locker room after 2 down 6-0. To some this may have been enough to concede but our girls came out in the 3rd and not only held their opponent scoreless but managed to find the back of the net twice with goals by Victoria O'Heir (14th) and Katelynn Arnold (1st). "It was a great display of character and determination," Mansfield/OA coach Patrick O'Heir said.

In our last look at the Bottom of the Ninth, we tackled four closers I thought were being severely undervalued in fantasy drafts this year. Today, let's discuss a few non-ninth inning relievers that I feel will end up with the job before all is said and done, and probably sooner rather than later.Please, blog, may I have some more?
2012 Fantasy Baseball Draft
Let me preface this post with some no holds barred truth: I hate catchers. I don't just hate them, I deep down inside loathe them so realize how painful this post is going to be. I'm going to offer you a strategy that is palatable but realize I'll likely not follow it.Please, blog, may I have some more?
On one hand, we have Evan Longoria at 7 and Yahoo has him at 13 in their O-Ranks, so we can get Longoria. On the other hand, they have Dee Gordon at 96 in their O-Ranks and we have him at 165, so we're not getting Gordon without reaching.Please, blog, may I have some more?
Unlike with real baseball, it can unequivocally be said that fantasy baseball is 50% about hitting and 50% about pitching. Yet it is close to a foregone conclusion that fantasy baseball drafters should invest disproportionately in hitters vs. pitchers. If someone were to draft a pitcher in the first round or three in the first five rounds, the average fantasy baseball player would scoff at them (scoff I say!).Please, blog, may I have some more?
As I awake from my winter hibernation where dreams of twins named Thompson abounded, I realize the time is neigh to learn you all about the potential holds fantasy standouts for the upcoming year. Anyone that knows me knows I love relief pitching, come into my apartment you will see embroidered pillows with my favorite relievers over the years stitched in effigy.Please, blog, may I have some more?
There's no Reyes, Tulo or Hanley on this list of shortstops. This list is guys that can be had later in your drafts if you've punted shortstop or are still looking for a middle infielder. Look at this as a supplement to the top 20 shortstops of 2012 fantasy baseball.Please, blog, may I have some more?
Traditional, smarishional, am I right?
I mean, long gone are the days when your soon-to-be father-in-law would actually pay you (in sheep, no less) to take his wretched daughter off his hands.
Similarly, Razzballers are becoming masters of their own domains and kicking the traditional 5×5 fantasy baseball game to the curb.Please, blog, may I have some more?
In the NFL, every GM has a cheat sheet to help determine the value of a draft pick. It was started by Jimmy Johnson during his Cowboy heyday and I imagine that every NFL GM has some egghead on staff who has a slightly different value for each draft pick.Please, blog, may I have some more?
I almost didn't write this post because I don't think you should be looking for sleeper 1st basemen. It's a no-no that makes my no-no area shrink. Then I got to thinking and then I started watching Chopped, then I took a nap, then I had a snack, then I remembered I was writing a post about sleeper 1st basemen, but forgot why I didn't want to write the post in the first place so I wrote it.Please, blog, may I have some more?
On Base Percentage (OBP) is what Skynet created for the Oakland A's so they could win the World Series and ruin baseball.
Actually, that doesn't sound quite right. I think OBP is the brew baseball writers' fermented in a basement to scare Andre Dawson, or it was the reason pitchers feared Jim Rice, thereby making him a Hall of Famer.Please, blog, may I have some more?

Ed Schultz Fails Miserably in Quest to 'Kick Fox's Ass' by Midterms
On August 27, Ed Schultz told his radio audience he was within striking distance of overcoming Fox New's "Special Report with Bret Baier" in the 6PM cable news ratings.
Schultz challenged his sycophant devotees to help him accomplish this goal by the midterm elections (video follows with commentary):
Now that the midterms have come and gone, Dan Andros has published the results of Schultz's challenge:
Using Ed ratings math it's a 13,522,000 ass kicking (in demo). Baier wins by +229 per night. And if you look at the month to month, it's getting worse by the minute for Ed (Aug = Baier +186, Sep = Baier +187, Oct = Baier +253, Nov = Baier +327). Wow – Baier is beating Ed by 327,000 people in demo per night? Ouch.
And just for fun, let's use a little Ed mathematics for one more stat – total audience (as opposed to the in Demo rating). Since Ed is all the rage with da youth, perhaps he fared a little better.
Nope, he still lost. But only by 84,755,000 people. Ed only needs to convince 28% of the entire United States of America in order to draw even with Baier. Isn't Ed math fun?
Indeed it is.
Readers are encouraged to review Andros's entire piece - it's a hoot!

Ever walk into a bar, and see some obnoxious jerk trying to be the center of attention? Pretty soon, the pattern plays out. If you don't pay attention to him, first he turns sarcastic, then he turns surly. Yeah, we've all come across bars like that, and guys like him. The smart move is to leave early and find a different bar.

I don't have the resources you guys have, but I'm telling you there is a clip from his TV show where Schultzie, in a tirade (what else?) screeches:
"You give me one year and I will kick Glenn Beck's ass in the ratings."
That's verbatim.
I have tried to find it, but so far am unable to do so (I even e-mailed Ed for it - no reply; gee, who have figured!) It took place in the opening weeks of his show. It would make a great accompaniment to a piece showing the current ratings disparity.

SCHALMONT, N.Y. - A candlelight vigil was held at the Pattersonville Fire Department Friday at 6 p.m. in honor of a 14-year-old Jack Zebrowski, a freshman student who police say took his own life on Saturday, October 19th.
Lt. Mike Brown with Rotterdam Police says they are still interviewing people to see if bullying played a role in the death, but there is no evidence that a crime was committed. However, they say that does not mean bullying didn't happen.
Police say even if it's found that bullying did happen, it would be considered 'inappropriate behavior' and not something that a juvenile could be charged with.
Schalmont school officials also say resource officers are re-interviewing students to find out what, if anything, happened during the week leading up to his death. Specifically, they are investigating whether bullying played a role in the boy's death.
School officials also say they will implement a systematic anti-bullying program on campus with the New York State Office of Mental Health, in addition to some initiatives already in place.
Earlier this week, Superintendent Dr. Carol Pallas sent a letter to parents and community members stating that, so far, the Rotterdam Police Department has not found any evidence directly linking the suicide to bullying, and no such accusations were brought to the district's attention.
Robin and Don Zebrowksi want to keep their 14-year-old son's memory alive through giving him a voice again and sending out a strong message to stop bullying and speak up.
"Jack should be here right now he should be here," said Robin.
Jack, a freshmen at Schalmont High School, ended his own life on October 19th, and his family believes he was bullied at school.
"Typical bullying being pushed in the hallway, milk spilled on him during lunchtime," said Don.
But it was only after his death both Robin and Don found out about the bullying.
"I was horrified didn't see it, didn't know," said Jacquie Gleckman, Jack's grandmother.
And Jack never said anything about it to his mom and dad, who he had a close relationship with.
"Bullying should not be an option people who are left behind are left with no answers," said Gleckman.
"If someone is smaller than you, it doesn't give them the right to push them around. And if you see someone being picked on makes a big deal about it," said Don.
It's a message that resonated throughout the night as Jack was remembered.

- Blue Valentine had to fight to get a fair R rating from the MPAA because the films shows female oral sex - female pleasure - while mainstream film and television continues to promote women and girls as objects of and targets for male desire without any examples of how to articulate or assert themselves against cultural stereotypes. The attention given to Blue Valentine's rating signifies our culture's imbalance in male vs. female sexual perspective and power. We are so used to seeing women as objects of desire, that when they are recipients of pleasure we don't know how to deal. It's not enough to show girls or women rolling their eyes in annoyance or acceptance of "the way things are" - we need to see them changing the paradigm. Below, two forces trying to do just that:
- Hand it to Geena Davis for taking the issue on herself. After having a daughter in 2004, the Thelma & Louise star became more aware of how women - no, girls, who haven't even hit puberty yet - were being represented on screen. She founded the Geena Davis Institute on Gender in Media, which led two studies (one of films released 1990-2004, another for 2004-2009), both concluding: "Of the 5,554 speaking characters studied, 71 percent were male and 29 percent were female. That's a 2.42 to 1 ratio," quotes the NYT. Davis says "I was absolutely floored to see that the same kind of imbalance and unfairness that exists in movies made for the general populace was also in these movies made for the very youngest kids."
The studies also revealed that girls on screen are more likely to be "hypersexualized…25 percent were wearing tight , provocative, revealing clothing, compared with four percent of males — and physically attractive (14 percent versus. 3.6 percent). The female characters were younger than their male counterparts, and the sole goal of the females was usually to find romance. Not one of the animated female characters had a shape that was possible in real life." Another survey will be conducted in 2015. Davis, in the meantime, is using her voice and any clout she has to get the industry to pay attention to the issue.
- Parents Television Council has conducted a study entitled "Sexualized Teen Girls: Tinseltown's New Target." The study's finding (which included a look at Pretty Little Liars, pictured - the title alone has issues), are below. The PTC has model-turned-documentary filmmaker Nicole Clark (Cover Girl Culture: Awakening the Media Generation) on their side. She says, "Our girls are being sexually objectified as young as 6…How did things get so crazy? Why can't the media be on our side?" PTC president Tim Winter says "Storylines on the most popular shows among teens are sending the message to our daughters that being sexualized isn't just acceptable, it should be sought after. It is outrageous that TV executives have made it their business to profit off of programs that depict teen girls blissfully being sexualized by casual partners and only showing disapproval for being sexualized five percent of the time."
Major Findings:
• Underage female characters are shown participating in a higher percentage of sexual depictions compared to adults (47% and 29% respectively).
• Only 5% of the underage female characters communicated any form of dislike for being sexualized (excluding scenes depicting healthy sexuality).
• Out of all the sexualized female characters depicted in the underage and young adult category for the entire database, 86% were presented as only being of high school age.
• Seventy-five percent of shows that included sexualized underage female characters were shows that did not have an "S" descriptor to warn parents about the sexual content.
• Based upon a definition established by the American Psychological Association of "healthy" vs. "unhealthy" sexuality, the study findings show that 93% of the sexual incidents involving underage female characters occurred within a context that qualified as "unhealthy."
• The data revealed that 98% of the sexual incidents involving underage female characters occurred outside of any form of a committed relationship.
• The data show that 73% of the underage sexualized incidents were presented in a humorous manner or as a punch line to a joke.
Barbara W | December 17, 2010 4:37 AM
Kudos Gena for taking this on it's very important and this is a beginning ...I have never liked movies where little girls are sexualized...it's sends the wrong message and is just plain old wrong.
As to the rating difference I have seen both and it's not the female oral sexuality scene imo it's the nudity that pushed it over the top.
Blue Valentine has nudity Black Swan does not.
Sergio | December 16, 2010 10:50 AM
So explain to me how it is that Black Swan gets a R rating in which we see a woman receiving oral sex from another woman? What the difference bewteen that scene and the one of Blue valentine. It is because in Black Swan 1) it's a male fantasy (O.K. I admit it is) and 2) because it turns out to be a fantasy in Portman's mind (Sorry if I spoiled it for anyone) So since it actually didn't happen and was just a dream it's then O.K. in the MPAA's mind
Ryan Sartor | December 16, 2010 10:30 AM
I think this is great and important work. I wish more actors would invest themselves in endeavors the way that Geena Davis is here.

The 2014
Pick riders. Pick bulls. Win great prizes.
How To Play
Your fantasy roster will be made up of 5 riders (from 3 tiers) and 3 bulls, which you select for each event. The rider and bull scores are based on the official PBR scoring system.
The game will be broken down into two seasons:
The Ultimate PBR Fantasy game is free to play. Sign up today and draft your team.
PBR Event Scoring
A qualified ride is 8 seconds. The clock starts when the bull's shoulder or flank breaks the plane of the gate. It ends when the rider's hand comes out of the rope, the rider touches the ground, or the rider's free arm touches the bull (a "slap"). A successful ride will earn a score of 0-100 points. Scores of 90 points or above are considered outstanding.
Four judges rate each rider and each bull on a scale from 1-25. Those points are added together and divided in half to reach a rider score and a bull score of between 0-50. Those numbers are then combined to reach a final ride score between 0-100.
The bull always receives a score, even if the rider is bucked off. His score is based on his degree of difficulty. Judges look for drop in the front end, kick in the back, spin, and direction changes (as contrasted with spin, this means changes to movement forward or backward, or left to right).
A rider only receives a score if he lasts the required 8 seconds. Judges look for control - the ability of the rider to successfully counter the moves of the bull. Spurring is not required, but tends to demonstrate control, and will add points to the rider's score.
If the bull's performance is sub-par (negatively affecting the ride score) or if a foul occurs during the ride (the rider is rubbed against the chute, the bull stumbles, the flank strap detaches, etc.) judges can offer the rider a chance to take a re-ride. They will signal a re-ride opportunity by throwing a red flag into the arena.

No surprise that Oz The Great and Powerful was No.1 again this weekend. But what was more surprising was the much stronger than expected b.o. opening for the Halle Berry thriller, The Call, which came in second.
Beating the lackluster The Incredible Burt Wonderstone, which became another thorn in the side of Warner Bros' poor box office performance so far this year, The Call opened to an excellent $17.1 million, making it, since 2003's Gothika, which opened at $19 million and went on the make $60 million domestically, the best opening b.o. for any film with Berry in the lead role.
Even more impressive, for the modestly budgeted film ($12 million) directed by indie film and TV director Brad Anderson (The Machinist, Fringe, Treme, Boardwalk Empire) is the fact that it's playing in some 650 theaters less than Wonderstone.
No doubt the aggressive PR hype with Berry front and center doing TV appearances (and of course even S & A, with yours truly) and the fact that the basic female empowering premise of two women who band together to stop a serial killer targeting women, helped greatly.
Meanwhile Harmony Korine's controversial and violent Spring Breakers, with Oz's James Franco along with Serena Gomez and Vanessa Hudgens breaking free from their family friendly Disney image, opened in limited release in just three theaters in N.Y. and L.A. to an astounding $90,000 average per screen, making it the biggest opening for any film in limited release so far this year.
1) Oz The Great and Powerful BV $42,222,000 Total: $145,026,000
2) The Call TriS $17,100,000
3) The Incredible Burt Wonderstone WB $10,305,000
4) Jack the Giant Slayer WB (NL) $6,220,000 Total: $53,913,000
5) Identity Thief Uni. $4,519,000 Total: $123,706,000
6) Snitch LG/S $3,500,000 Total: $37,257,000
7) 21 and Over Rela. $2,619,000 Total: $21,868,000
8) Silver Linings Playbook Wein. $2,587,000 Total: $124,613,000

Congrats to Halle! I see that "Silver Linings Playbook" is still going strong, even though it's just in a few theaters.
Ghost | March 17, 2013 9:28 PM
How is this film targeted to us? Nothing in those ads said blacks only. I only know of 3 blacks in this film and one-David Otunga was nowhere in the trailer, He works for the dang company and is married/engaged to an Oscar Winner. Where was he in the trailers?
This was a film for anyone that wanted to see it. You saw more ads for it in the black community because the lead is a black person. Halle got it more attention because it's coming out around the time hype for the new X-Men movie is starting. She was going to get this film hype no matter what.
The only black thing Halle has done is planet into the WWE's mind that putting us in the lead role can work out.
Amanda | March 17, 2013 8:37 PM
Are you people stupid or what? How many films released per year have a black woman in the lead? Do you morons not think this film would not appeal to black women? Geesh. I get it the film snobs on this board don't seem to understand but people often want to see themselves represented in FILMS. Halle Berry is the top African American actress in Hollywood she really promoted the hell out of this movie getting the word out to black audiences. The LA Times wrote an article about the marketing campaign of the WWE to appeal to black audiences. Honestly, even Nikki Finke from Deadline.com one of the top entertainment websites in Hollywood POINTED OUT this film was marketed heavily towards blacks. Learn to read people. Geesh.
Curtis | March 17, 2013 6:54 PM
So happy for Berry. X man will be another huge check for my girl.
Amanda | March 17, 2013 6:27 PM
It is sad that Shadow and Act don't acknowledge the fact that Marissa has a cogent argument. What does it say about Halle Berry that she only decided to make a movie appealing to blacks because her career is in the toilet? When Halle made crappy films with white male love interests such as Dark Tide, Things We We Lost In A Fire, and Perfect Stranger those films bombed.
However, since Halle Berry's career is basically almost fallen off she desperately went back to the African American audience people she rejected. The real reason this film did well is due to Morris Chestnut who is a popular black male actor. Also, the WWE studio realized by aggressively marketing the film to black audiences through television and radio appearances it worked.
Marissa | March 17, 2013 4:42 PM
Am I supposed to be happy for her? The reason she's trying to cater to us once again is because her days of being the go-to white friendly it girl are over and she knows it. Having to crawl back to black must have been a blow to her massive ego lol. Anywho, had this occurred during her peak years 2001-2007 I would be more impressed. In 2013 however, it feels more like a last resort to revive her falling star. Personally, as a black filmgoer, I don't enjoy being treated as a last resort. So by all means celebrate her success and continue to spend your hard earned cash on someone who will only cater to you out of necessity.
Roberto | March 17, 2013 1:02 PM
I think more than targeting women, the reason the movie did well was the aggressive advertising to black audiences. Which hasnt been done with a Halle movie since probably b4 she won her oscar, Morris Chestnut and David Otunga were all over urban radio throughout the country. Halle was on stevie harvey's radio and talk show. I think they learned that despite her "mainstream" success black folks are still her biggest audience.
Roberto | March 17, 2013 12:50 PM
Yay for Halle!! Glad she proved she can still open a movie. I just hope this doesnt mean all thrillers all the time for her; not my favorite genre. Saw in a Call press interview that she's working on some things with HBO so hopefully something great comes out of that.

Several new drugs that have been found to possibly stop or reverse Alzheimer's disease are in the final testing stage.
"My wife asked me to go in. I'd been having episodes of disorientation while I was driving," says Alzheimer's patient Don Hayen, M.D.
After several brain scans, Dr. Don Hayen got the diagnosis he never thought would never apply to him - Alzheimer's.
"You get kind-of devastated with that kind of word," says Dr. Hayen.
It's a word that describes what's happening inside the brain. This animation shows how plaque builds up in the brain's nerves leading to memory loss and eventually, fatal brain damage. Medication can temporarily ease the symptoms.
"My symptoms of getting lost while driving have gone away and I haven't had those anymore at all," says Hayen.
But they won't reverse or cure Alzheimer's.
"I've since had some loss of memory and early memory, I have real troubles with names," says Hayen.
Hayen hopes to get it back as nine new drugs in the final human testing stages may actually stop plaque buildup in the brain.
"Anti-plaque drugs will significantly alter the disease, not just at symptoms which is what the drugs that are currently available do," says Barbara Mandel Pache, with the Alzheimer's Association.
But, Doctor Hayen won't just wait for the future. He says he's too busy telling others about Alzheimer's and making new memories.
"I look forward to each day I make as much out of it as I can. It has made my life exciting and vibrant and I am enjoying it," says Hayen.
If you would like to find out more about these drugs, contact the Alzheimer's Association at 1-800-272-3900 or click here.

February 10, 2014
Tomorrow, California lawmakers will hold a hearing about the use of solitary confinement inside its state prison system. February marks seven months since people incarcerated throughout California embarked on the mass hunger strike that has drawn legislative attention to prison conditions. The CDCR released new proposed regulations around its gang policies, and it points to changes already made. Accounts from former hunger strikers suggest that change is slow in coming.
November 17, 2013
Potosi Correctional Center prisoners are in desperate need of assistance from any and all outside organizations, politicians, agencies, state representatives, officials, media, investigative agencies etc. Please assist us to make prison officials cease their transgressions and malicious violations of our federally and state-protected rights and cease continuing restrictions of confinement.
August 24, 2013
Should the Commission grant this request for a hearing, we will provide the Commission with testimony from prisoners, as well as oral presentations by family members of prisoners, advocates and lawyers. We would ask that the Commission recommend to the United States government and the state of California that they immediately take all measures necessary to address grave violations of human rights in the prison system.
July 8, 2013
Hundreds of people held in California prisons are expected to launch their third large-scale hunger strike in two years today. The current strike, announced by leaders at Pelican Bay State Prison on Feb. 14, is seen as a resumption of the large-scale strikes in June and September 2011, when thousands of prisoners across the state stopped eating for days or weeks in order to press for the five demands laid out by the strike organizers.
February 27, 2013
On Monday, Feb. 25, the California Assembly's Public Safety Committee, chaired by Assembly Member Tom Ammiano, held a hearing on the state's Security Housing Units (SHUs). The hearing comes 18 months after the committee held a similar hearing prompted by a three-week long hunger strike in June 2011 that involved thousands of California prisoners across the state. Monday's hearing focused on the implementation of new CDCR policies and considerations of their appropriateness.

How wonderful it is that nobody need wait a single moment before starting to improve the world. Anne Frank
Girls are the future.
Seriously. They're the future leaders, mothers, artists, teachers, doctors and innovators. Girls are the future women who will shape the planet.
Think this is an overstatement? Think about it. Actually that's similar to our philosophy at Girlfriendology. Based on our research (from "The Tending Instinct," by Shelley E. Taylor), men look to women for tending (care taking), children look to women for tending, and women look to women for tending. So, if we take care of the women, we take care of the community. (And, we believe we take care of women through encouraging female friendship which makes women healthier, happier, live longer, less stressed and even feel more beautiful.)
The Girl Effect takes it much further, in a wonderful way. Think about their beliefs:
Adolescent girls are uniquely capable of raising the standard of living the developing world. Girls are the most likely agents of change, but they are often invisible to their societies and to our media.
When everyone – girls, parents, teachers, executives, artists, hairdressers, forest rangers, rock stars, presidents, investors, advertisers, skateboarders, truckers, cowboys, organizations, chefs, teenagers – knows about The Girl Effect, then real change can happen. The Girl Effect is just the beginning. The end is nothing less than ending poverty. firstname.lastname@example.com
What can we girlfriends do to assure the future of the planet and our children's children? Be aware. Invest in organizations like The Girl Effect. We can start now by listening, inspiring, protesting, investing in, cheering on and paying the way for change and for girls to make that change.
Here are more facts from The Girl Effect:
What happens when a girl gets a chance?
- When a girl in the developing world receives seven or more years of education, she marries four years later, and has 2.2 fewer children.
- Educated girls grow into educated women, who – research shows – have healthier babies and are more likely to educate their children.
- When girls and women ear income, the reinvest 90% of it into their families, as compared with only 30-40% for a man.
- An extra year of primary school boosts girls' future wages by 10-20%.
- An extra year of secondary school boosts girl's future wages by 15-25%.
… And what happens when she doesn't?
- 70% of the world's 130 million out-of-school youth are girls.
- One girl in seven in developing countries marries before age 15, 38% marry before age 18.
- 25-50% of girls in developing countries become mothers before age 18.
- Pregnancy is the leading cause of death among girls 15-19 worldwide.
- 75% of HIV-infected youth in Africa are girls.
So, girlfriends. How can we better take care of our girls? Local? International? Specifically and in general? How can we affect girls in a way that will change their world and improve the world?

The three sisters you're about to meet would make an instant family. All they need are parents to love them - a mom and a dad to enjoy all of the wonderful things these girls have to offer. Meet Sativa, Sierra and Natalia who are hoping there's a family out there, willing to take a chance on adopting three girls.
These three sisters can't help but put a smile on your face. Seeing them together you can glimpse just how well they get along.
They are honest, spunky, and agreeable.
Natalia, who's the youngest of the trio is eight-years-old. Sierra is nine, and Sativa is 11.
Are they good students? They are and they're also good at sports.
These girls are confident and self-assured, but what they really need to keep them on the path to success are parents who will nurture them and love them. So, what kind of family do they dream of? They want a nice one and parents they can do activities with, such as bowling and going to the park.
It's sometimes tough for them to watch their friends at school take their parents for granted. Natalia once told a friend to be grateful for what she has:
"I said she's lucky because she can live with her mom and dad."
But at least these girls have each other, while they wait for parents to complete their family.
"Unfortunately people see the number, a sibling set of three, and they get scared and shy away because they see three kids, ages 8 , 9, and 11 and they kind of think, 'wow, what would I do with three kids?' But these girls are awesome and they would bring a lot of joy to any family," explained Protective Services Worker Anzette Shackelford.
If you're interested in adopting or becoming a foster family, call 1-877-I-ADOPT-U.

SAN MARCOS, Texas (AP) - Doug Davalos won't return as men's basketball coach at Texas State.
In a statement Monday, athletic director Larry Teis said the Bobcats men's basketball coach for the past six seasons won't have his contract renewed for a seventh.
In six seasons Davalos compiled a 92-107 record at Texas State, the third-most wins in school history.
His best season was 2011-12, when the Bobcats were 16-16 and finished as Southland Conference West Division co-champions before moving to the Western Athletic Conference.
However, Davalos encouraged players to complete their studies, graduating 16 players. He earned the 2012 National Association of Basketball Coaches (NABC) Literacy Award recipient for his work in the San Marcos community in conjunction with the Reading with the Cats program.
A nationwide search will begin for a successor.

BURLINGTON, VT. — Hilde Sue Plosker Betts, 59, of Burlington, passed away in the early morning of Saturday, Jan. 19, 2013, after a heroic battle with a reoccurring illness. Hilde was born in Queens, N.Y., on Jan. 10, 1954. She was the daughter of Edward William Plosker and Paula Raphael Plosker. Hilde was the third of four children; and is survived by her siblings, George Plosker of Calif., Robert Plosker of Fla., and Linda Plosker Valentine of Pa.
Hilde grew up in the strong, supportive community of the Bell Park Manor Terrace, a Jewish war veterans complex in the Queens Village section of Queens. She found a replica of that strong, supportive community as a well-loved resident of the Five Sisters neighborhood in Burlington.
Hilde attended public schools in Queens and graduated from the Martin Van Buren High School in 1971. Having had the opportunity to attend summer camps in Upstate New York as a teenager, she learned to love the northern woods, lakes and mountains. She then chose to study at the State University of Plattsburgh with an undergraduate major in Nursing. Hilde also studied the Arts, and enjoyed singing opera as well as other musical genres.
After her graduation from SUNY Plattsburgh, she traveled to Marietta, Ga., and studied Chiropractics at the Life Chiropractic College. Hilde graduated with her Doctorate in Chiropractic Medicine and then returned to the northern region to begin practices in Stowe and Burlington, Vt., in the early 1980s. Hilde had a very active practice, where she was sought out by patients for her expertise with pregnant women and myofascial release. Hilde was a very caring health practitioner, and worked diligently with her patients to relieve their pain. Throughout the years of practice, she was very giving of her time and knowledge to others.
Hilde is survived by her loving son, William Betts of Burlington, who is a student at the University of Vermont. She was previously married to Timothy Betts of South Burlington. Hilde is also survived by her niece, Carla Valentine of N.J.; and nephew, Edward Valentine of Pa.

ANGLING: Coleman reigns on Oxford Canal
11:00am Saturday 26th January 2013 in Sport
Fourteen anglers braved the snow to fish North Oxford's latest club match on the Oxford Canal at Frenchay Road.
Match secretary John Coleman led them home with 6lb 1oz of perch on chopped worm.
Using the same tactics, Jason Bean had 4.5.0 of perch for second place, followed by Bob Yeomans, making his club debut. He had a good skimmer and a perch for 3.6.0.
Marston AC FTB's Northway Cup match was postponed last Sunday and they will try again tomorrow.
They had to break the ice at Oakfield last week.
However, weights were surprisingly good as veteran Dave Stratful caught carp to 8lb to win on Wednesday with 56.8.8. Mark Pollard caught six carp to 6lb to take Saturday's honours with 34.15.0.
Oakfield: (Wednesday, Swallow Lake, 11 fished) 1 D Stratful (Dynamite Oakfield, 56.8.8, 2 M Pollard (Shimano/Stanjay) 56.4.8, 3 B Eddy (Dynamite Oakfield) 31.10.8.
Oakfield: (Saturday, Swallow Lake, 8 fished) 1 M Pollard (Shimano/Stanjay) 34.15.0, 2 G Thorpe (GOT Baits) 33.11.0, 3 G Worrall (Dynamite Oakfield) 29.15.0.
(Subject to weather & water conditons)
Marston AC FTB: Northway Cup, Cherwell. Draw 8am, fishing 9-2.
Masons AC: Club match, Kidlington. Draw 9am, fishing 10-3.
Oxford Waltonian: Short Shield. Thame at Wheatley Bridge. Draw 8am, fishing 9-2.

Cooperstown Crier
---- — Cooperstown Central School recently kicked off its annual mentor program where high schoolers take middle schoolers under their wings.
"I'm looking forward to getting more knowledge, my mentor helps me study," seventh-grader Leslie Boyles said.
According to Boyles, the mentor program is also helping her meet new people and enables her to spend more time with older students.
"I see my mentor as like an older sister," Boyles explained. "I spend time with her every other day. When I have lunch she has art, so I go in and work on projects and talk with her then."
The program has 39 mentors and is coordinated by Shannon Merwin. The high school students are intensively trained on the campus of the State University College of Agriculture and Technology at Cobleskill. Activities included in mentoring but not limited to are: Daily journaling between mentor and mentee, ice-breaker activities after school, homework help and peer encouragement and support.
According to CCS counselor Katie Baldo, the mentor program is financially and professionally supported through the district's participation in College for Every Student. CFES is a nonprofit organization committed to raising the academic aspirations and performance of today's youth so that they can prepare for, gain access to and succeed in college. Baldo said The Clark Foundation has generously afforded CCS and other local districts the opportunity to reap the benefits of such an organization.
Mentorship is one of three practices that are essential to the CFES' mission, according to Baldo. She said the other two practices include leadership through service and pathways to college.
"The service component is met through our mentor program and we have a comprehensive career/college model, K-12, that lends itself to pathways to college. The culminating event of our pathways to college initiative is providing all of our fifth-, eighth- and 10th-grade students an opportunity to visit a college campus every year," Baldo said.
The hope is to foster academic and personal growth and to establish connections that bridge transitions for students during their school career, she continued.
Last year, according to Baldo, the students visited the Museum of Science and Technology and were able to view the 3D version of Polar Express.
"In addition, a trip to Interskate 88 was scheduled last year as another opportunity to celebrate the relationships formed through mentoring," she said. "Students also grew bulbs to plant at Woodside Hall in the spring. The plan is to continue this activity and to give back to the community. Past service includes assisting the Kid Garden located at the elementary school and sending holiday cards to in-patients at Bassett. We are excited that this year's kickoff event is a trip to Howes Caverns that is taking place on Nov. 27."
Merwin said the mentor program especially eases the transition for students moving from one building to the other. The elementary school houses kindergarten through sixth graders, whereas a year ago the sixth graders were included in the middle/high school.
Mae Loewenguth was among students who made the transition from the elementary school to the middle/high school this year. She said the mentor program has helped ease that process.
"I'm becoming more familiar with the older kids. I was used to being the oldest in the elementary school," she said.
"I'm also gaining confidence with interacting with others," she added.
Junior Aaron Idelson said he has two mentees, a seventh-grader and an eighth-grader.
"My sister was a mentee two years ago and had a great experience, so I wanted to do it," he said.
The first-year mentor said his friends also encouraged him to get involved.
"It has given me a better attitude toward the younger students and has taught me patience," he said. "I feel I have become more open toward the younger kids I don't really know."
Mentor Joseph Harmon said he just loves helping others and felt the program was a good way to do that.
The junior is a member of Leo Club, his church's youth group and he served as a hospital volunteer this past summer.
According to Harmon, mentors get to make up their own schedules with mentees. Some meet during school hours, but because his free time does not match up with his mentees', he said they meet after school.
"My goal is to give my mentee a great experience and have him feel like the program is worthwhile," Harmon said.
Right now, the program involves high school and middle school students. However, Baldo said the district plans to start a K-6 program in another month or two.
One thing Baldo said she has seen as a result of the mentor program is improved attendance rates at school.
"Students want to make sure they are meeting with their mentors," she said. "They don't want to miss a day when they might potentially be doing something fun."

I attend church regularly and involved in several aspects of activities there, but do not force my views on others, If you don't attend church, that's OK, but be willing to allow me to do so.
I like theatre, movies, dancing, dining at different restaurants....Italian, Mexican, all kinds of food, Staying home and watching a movie is good too. i do enjoy an occasional martini before dinner, snuggling with a glass of wine, ice cream cones,(I zone to a different world while eating them), Colorado and Santa Fe, camping, ( not in a tent!), and just being with good friends. Really enjoy small get together's in the home for dinner, game night, or just fun conversation.
Music? I like it all except for hard rock & rap. Like to attend concerts, symphony but really into Jazz, Blues, Oldies (60's & 70's). C & W, and soft rock. When the beat is good, the feet won't stay still!
About the one I'm looking for...
I'm looking for companionship,and/or serious relationship. I want a friend first and if the friendship grows.........wouldn't that be nice! Someone with a ready smile, sense of humor, outgoing personality, intelligence, a twinkle in their eye and a little bit ornery. If you have a rig and like to camp........cast iron skillet will travel........love it! Another activity I enjoy is volunteer work, and it would be nice to have my partner participate one or two of those activities with me. Not mandatory.
I'd just like to add...
I'm easy going, happy personand and willing to discuss & compromise on issues.

Quinnipiac Field Hockey falls 3-2 in Overtime to Lafayette
The Quinnipiac Bobcats (0-2, 0-0 MAAC) hosted the Lafayette Leopards (2-0, 0-0...
By Zack Daly, QBSN Co-Broadcast Manager
A goal in the 84th minute by Larry Ndjock carried the Loyola Greyhounds to a 1-0 victory over the Quinnipiac Bobcats on Wednesday afternoon. Loyola improves to 3-0-1 on the year, while Quinnipiac drops to 0-2-2.
Ndjock's winning goal came after he collected a pass, got past the defense on the far side, and beat Borja Angoitia (Bilbao, Spain) on the near post.
"Soccer isn't a fair game and we definitely didn't get what we deserved out of the game," head coach Eric Da Costa said. "It comes down to one mistake or not capitalizing on one play."
Angoitia made seven saves over the course of the game to keep the Bobcats in the game, but the Quinnipiac offense couldn't capitalize on their opportunities.
Quinnipiac outshot Loyola 17-11, but only put three shots on target compared to the Greyhounds' eight shots on goal. Machel Baker (Spanish Town, Jamaica) led Quinnipiac with seven shots, but failed to put one on target.
Despite the team's record so far this season, Da Costa is encouraged by the team's effort.
"In terms of our performance I think we're right where we should be," Da Costa said. "Obviously we want tangible results to go along with that and we didn't get that today, but we'll keep plugging away and believing in what we're doing."
The Bobcats continue to get their first win on Saturday when they host Holy Cross. Kickoff is scheduled for 3 p.m.

When you really love something, when there is some item or activity that you are truly passionate about, you can take great pleasure in sharing that with someone. In particular, for those of us that are parent, there are few things more wonderful than sharing the things we love with our children and watching them enjoy those special things too. As a bacon lover, sharing the wonders of bacon with your kids is a fun and delicious activity for the whole family to enjoy. From Sunday morning family brunches that bring everyone together are a wonderful bonding activity, as are weeknight cooking experiments.
Whether your little ones already love bacon, or you're hoping to encouraging the affinity, we bacon-loving parents may find that a great way to celebrate their family love if bacon is through giving their children bacon toys. And not all of these toys are for kids, either – after all, up to 35% of all adults admit their still sleep with a teddy bear. Why not snuggle up with a plush piece of bacon?
For this edition of bacon love Friday, here are some of our favourite bacon toys on the market right now.
My First Bacon
Not only does this plush, adorable trip of bacon have fantastic googly eyes, he also talks! This is sure to be a hit with little and big kids alike, and would make an excellent present.
Shakin' Bacon
This exciting board game really keeps players on their toes. Players must serve as much bacon and eggs as possible before time runs out. Not only is this fun, but it teaches your kids valuable bacon skills.
Mr Bacon vs Monsieur Tofu
Help the brave and stalwart Mr. Bacon battle bland tastelessness in his eternal fight against the sinster Monsieur Tofu!
Bendable Mr. Bacon
This toy's flexible body and funny face make him great fun to play with, and your kids will have an endless good time twisting him into all sorts of different shapes.
Mr Bacon's Big Adventure
Another great board game, this time its up to you to help Mr. Bacon navigate his way around the board, through places like the Murstard Marsh and the Sausage Sea. First one to the the frying pan wins!

It's only January so a lot will change between now and Opening Day (spring training performances and injuries), but based on the current 40 man roster, who would you select for the 25 man opening day roster? Where would you assign the other players?
Matt Albers bullpen
Anthony Bass waive/Oklahoma City
Kevin Chapman bullpen
Jose Cisnero Oklahoma City
Paul Clemens Oklahoma City
Jarred Cosart starting rotation
Jesse Crain bullpen (closer)
Luis Cruz Corpus Christi
Darin Downs waive/Oklahoma City
Scott Feldman starting rotation
Josh Fields bullpen
Lucas Harrell waive/Oklahoma City
Dallas Keuchel waive/Oklahoma City
Chia-Jen Lo bullpen
David Martinez waive/Oklahoma City
Collin McHugh waive/Oklahoma City
Brett Oberholtzer starting rotation
Rudy Owens Oklahoma City
Brad Peacock starting rotation
Chad Qualls bullpen
Raul Valdes waive/Oklahoma City
Alex White Oklahoma City
Asher Wojciechowski starting rotation
Josh Zeid bullpen
Jason Castro starting catcher
Carlos Corporan backup catcher
Max Stassi Oklahoma City
Jose Altuve starting second baseman
Chris Carter starting DH
Matt Dominguez starting third baseman
Marwin Gonzalez utility infielder
Jesus Guzman right handed portion of platoon at first base
Jonathan Singleton Oklahoma City
Jonathan Villar starting shortstop
Brett Wallace left handed portion of platoon at first base
Dexter Fowler starting center fielder
Robbie Grossman starting left fielder
L.J. Hoes starting right fielder
Marc Krauss corner outfield backup
Domingo Santana Oklahoma City
I don't expect many arguments regarding the position player assignments (feel free to do so). I'm sure George Springer's name will come up, but this little exercise is based on the current 40 man, which Springer is not a part of. Full disclosure: I would start Springer as the opening day right fielder if I were the GM. I am fully aware of the arbitration clock and the continued strikeout issues as reasons to keep him down a little longer, but I am of the opinion that you need to have him in the lineup now.
In regards to the pitching staff, I'm sure others will argue against my selection of Wojo into the rotation. He's due. He's 25, had a solid full season at AAA. Give him a shot. He'll be the 5th starter, no pressure. Show us what you got kid.
The bullpen assignments I've made will also get some arguments. The guys I have listed as waive or assign to OKC are generally waiver pickups themselves or guys signed to minor league contracts. Don't think any of those would be a shocking omission off the 25 man roster.
Anyway, would love to hear your thoughts. Thank you
