I applied online. The process took 4+ months – interviewed at United Natural.Interview Details
The interview process started quickly with immediate feedback from the HR department, including completion of a lengthy application. The interview seemed to go well, but the follow up was non-existent, and there was no response to emails to the hiring manager. I felt this organization lacked basic business etiquette.Interview Questions

I applied online. The process took 3+ months – interviewed at United Natural in April 2014.Interview Details
My first interview came about 4 months after I had sent my application; it was a phone interview with one of the HR Managers. It lasted for about an hour; told me about the company and its history, talked about the position and what it all entails, etc. My next interview (three weeks later) was with a Manager who went through the program I was applying to just two years ago. We went more in depth about the Corporate Buyer Trainee and its role in the company. My final interview happened at the office I would be in, I, in my part, dropped the ball on this one as I did not ask if UNFI was going to pay for my flight from Dallas to Denver for the on-site interview. I thought they would ask about it during the interview process or something. The final interview consisted of three, 30 minute long, separate interviews - two with my WOULD BE bosses and one with the head of HR. The first two was pretty rough, they asked technical and behavioral-type questions, as with the interview with HR it was just talking about how I would fit into the company's culture. I was told I would find out the results if I got hired or not within two weeks. Two weeks go by, no phone call or email. Then a month. I called one of the hiring managers and left him an email, no response. I email two other employees that I had interviewed with, still nothing. I call and leave two more messages. I call HR three times. After a month and a half of waiting, I get a plain-jane email stating that I did not make the cut. It was extremely unprofessional for them to do this. At the very least, they could have told me why I did not make the cut, and A PHONE CALL. Frustrating!Interview Questions

I applied through an employee referral. The process took 1+ week – interviewed at United Natural in March 2013.Interview Details
I had initially submitted an online application and then was able to secure a personal referral to HR. I was contacted by an intern for a 10 minute screening call - which took several days to schedule because of her limited schedule. Her demeanor was very robotic. No acknowledgement that I had a strong personal introduction at the executive level. After a brief screening call I received a pro-forma email rejection 2 days later.Interview Questions

I was given a phone screen by the HR manager at the time and she then passed me on to a phone call with the GM.

It was a relatively quiet year globally for natural disasters in 2009. According to Munich Re insurance company, the death toll from 2009 natural disasters was approximately 10,000, well below the average 75,000 deaths per year seen over the decade of the 2000s. Damage from 2009 natural disasters was about $50 billion, compared to the decadal average of $115 billion, and far below the $200 billion in destruction wrought by 2008's natural disasters. The most costly disaster of 2009 was Winter Storm Klaus, which hit northern Spain and southwest France January 23 - 25, causing $5.1 billion in damage. The deadliest weather-related disaster was Category 2 Typhoon Ketsana, which killed 694 people in the Philippines and Southeast Asia. Category 2 Typhoon Morakot was a close second, with 614 fatalities, primarily in Taiwan. The deadliest natural disaster overall was the magnitude 7.6 earthquake that shook the Indonesian island of Sumatra on 30 September, killing nearly 1,200 people.
Figure 1. Cars being swept away by Ketsana's flood waters in a still frame from a dramatic YouTube video captured by medical students at the East Ramon Magsaysay Memorial Medical Center.

- State Senator Jim Patrick, ID (SD-25) Responds to Critics
April 7, 2014
State Senator Jim Patrick, ID (SD-25) Responds to Critics This originally appeared on MagicValley.com on April 4, 2014. I laughed when I read that the editorial board "discovered" from "internal documents acquired by SourceWatch.org" that I am the American Legislative Exchange Council Idaho State chair. Perhaps those documents include a picture of the Exchange Council website, since I'm listed right there on the state chair webpage. The American Legislative Exchange Council is a forum whereby policy analysts, industry experts and state lawmakers from around the country can gather, share ideas and exchange data and experiences. Similarly, I am also a […]
- Pension Myths Keep Us From Making Badly Needed Reforms | IBD
February 24, 2014
As 2014 brings in new struggles for cities and states to pay for employee legacy costs while still funding the essential functions of government, policymakers on both sides of the aisle are reconsidering how to provide a secure retirement for state and municipal employees in a responsible manner. Reports estimate total unfunded pension liabilities exceed $4 trillion across the 50 states, and Detroit's municipal bankruptcy, along with dozens more over the last half decade, are just the tip of the iceberg. Many thoughtful criticisms have come from reform discussions, but also many attacks built on misconceptions, "straw man" arguments and […]Related: Tax and Fiscal Policy

February 19, 2014
In the wake of the NSA scandal, American citizens demand Congress take a hard look at government surveillance practices. While only the federal government has the power to halt NSA activities, the states will likely be the real battleground for privacy issues. In fact, state legislators are actively moving legislation aimed at protecting citizens' civil liberties in the digital age. Digitally connected devices are an integral part of Americans' daily lives. More than 90 percent of Americans deem essential one device in particular: the smartphone. For many, the buzz of a smartphone alarm is the first thing heard each morning, […]
- Obama fails to reveal Navigator program leaves consumers at risk | Daily Caller
February 11, 2014
In his State of the Union address, President Obama mentioned fixing a broken health care system. Unfortunately, the president provided no specifics about how to fix errors already experienced during the implementation of the Affordable Care Act (ACA), such as securing ethical and well-screened insurance navigators who handle personal information of health insurance enrollees.Related: Health and Human Services
- Patent trolls spell trouble for America's economy | Reuters
November 18, 2013
Our nation's founders incorporated the concept of individual property rights — including intellectual property rights — into the Constitution because they knew that these rights spur innovation and help promote economic growth. However, patent assertion entities (PAEs), otherwise known as "patent trolls," inhibit the innovation and economic growth that patents typically foster. Even more alarming, with the creation of government-sponsored patent trolls (GSPTs) — which are financially backed by a national government — patent trolls have gone global.Related: International Relations

October 4, 2013
Tuesday marked the first day of open enrollment for the health-insurance exchanges set up by the Affordable Care Act. It didn't go very well: Would-be health-insurance consumers in at least 47 states encountered technical problems. These so-called glitches, however, mask a much more serious concern for consumers: protecting sensitive data. The lack of sufficient security surrounding the exchanges should give potential enrollees pause.Related: Health and Human Services

- Make apps, not more rules | The Daily Caller
July 23, 2013
By: John Stephenson Policymakers interested in creating more jobs for Americans should let mobile application developers do what they do best, not saddle them with new, burdensome regulatory obligations. The economic impact of the app economy is substantial. More than two and a half million apps are currently available from the app stores offered by Apple, Blackberry, Google, and Microsoft. According to the Application Developers Alliance, the app economy has created 519,000 American jobs and is a significant economic driver in states like California, Georgia, Illinois and Texas.

It's rare in this life that you get to see the kind of justice we were treated to this week watching Manny Ramirez' baseball career end in disgrace. There couldn't be a more appropriate ending than to see him slink away from the game like the coward he is. One step ahead of the steroid posse. Exposed as a fraud. Alone in the world with no one to defend him. And most fitting of all, quitting rather than standing up and facing the music.
And I say this, surprisingly enough, as someone who spend Manny's 7 2/3 years in Boston defending him. From the beginning of his Red Sox career, Manny had detractors. Baseball purists hated his goofy, lackadaisical approach to the game. The media criticized his callow indifference to his team, the fans and themselves. From almost Day 1 of his Sox career, my brother Jack was ripping Manny a new sphincter for deciding that $160 million wasn't enough money to run out more than a few, select ground balls and popups.
And I defended Ramirez against the criticism not because I didn't agree with it — I most certainly did — but because there was nothing about Manny that didn't come exactly as advertised. From the moment Dan Duquette succeeded in chasing Manny and agent Jeff Moorad down at the 2000 winter meetings and got him to sign a contract like a 14-year-old Beleiber getting Justin's autograph, we knew what we were getting. Because he'd done the same thing throughout his Cleveland career.
Manny would pout. He'd take days off. He'd wouldn't bother to run out grounders and popups. In the field he'd turn the laziest popups into the Labors of Hercules. He'd do inexplicably stupid things like run into outs or lose track of how many outs there were. You could set the calendar on your digital watch by the weekend in August he'd inevitably fake a hammy pull in order to get out of a weekend series, and to hell with everybody if his team needed him.
He'd also hit better than anyone in baseball. He'd drive in runs by the Red Line-at-rush-hour carload. He'd be the most consistent right-handed power bat of his generation. And he did all of the above to the point that I will argue with anyone that he represents the single best free agent signing in all of sports.
I can sum Manny's entire existence with two short quotes:
•From Pedro Martinez: "Manny's weird, man."
•And from ESPN's Mike Greenberg, a Yankees fan: "I've never seen him make an out."
So sure, I defended him. Not because I thought he was St. Francis of Assisi, but because he came as advertised. This was all what we'd signed up for. To me, complaining when he'd drag his bat back to the dugout before his infield popup was on its way back down was like climbing into a shark tank holding a pot roast and complaining when you got bitten.
And besides, I've won a million bar bets with this gem of a question: "Who was the Sox clean-up hitter the year before Manny signed?" The answer is Troy O'Leary. A peach of a guy, someone who hustled all the time and whom you'd love to have over your house for a BBQ. But he was also good for about 90 RBIs a year, something Ramirez usually had by the All-Star Game. (Which he would be voted into as a starter but then invariably make up some phony baloney injury so he could skip it.)
Of course, the transgressions I've mentioned so far are just Manny's misdemeanors. Dogging it on the basepaths is a pretty minor offense when you check a guy's CORI and see felony convictions for things like blowing off Jimmy Fund cancer patients, refusing to meet with wounded soldiers at Walter Reed or decking middle-aged club employees. But taking this record of offenses as a whole, adding to it him quitting on his team in July of 2008 and three — count 'em, three — positive drug tests and you have to admit that by any standard, this is a pretty despicable human being.
Which is not an admission that I was wrong to root for Manny. As I said all along, I defended him on the basis of one thing and one thing only: He could rake. I didn't like him or the way he approached the game. But for damned sure I didn't want to be in the bathroom when he came to the plate.
Now the point that I've been working up to … and taking forever, I admit … is that some guys make it hard for you to root for them. I've never pretended to be anything but a fanboy, a shameless, biased homer who's not embarrassed to root for laundry. And even I've had a hard time cheering for certain guys. Some for the way they play on the field. Some for how they conduct themselves off the field. And some rare types such as Manny, for both. As a matter of fact, I'd put him as the gold standard. The one athlete against whom all other difficult-to-make-yourself-cheer-for athletes should be measured.
So on that note, here are my personal choices for the Hardest to Root for Boston Athletes of the last 20 years, graded on the Manny Scale (™ Jerry Thornton, all rights reserved):
10. JD Drew
•Disliked for his on-field or off-field activities? On field
•Reasons why: For being an injury prone, passionless drone who takes more days off than a Turnpike worker.
•Mitigating factors: Seems like a good guy, a family man. Liked by his teammates, coaches and the media. Won a World Series and hit a huge Grand Slam.
Manny Scale ™ Rating: 1.0
9. Laurence Maroney
•Disliked for his on-field or off-field activities? On field
•Reasons why: A highly regarded first-round draft choice of whom we expected great things. When the Pats picked him, Peyton Manning allegedly called Tom Brady and said "You guys stole our running back." And we were treated to four-plus frustrating years of him getting to the hole then doing the "Twist and Shout" parade sequence from "Ferris Bueller."
•Mitigating factors: Despite the caution flags thrown up by him having an SUV with the Kool-Aid Guy detailed into the side, you never heard a word about him off the field until after he was traded to Denver and got popped for possession of weed. Though I still wish he'd run through the line like Kool-Aid Guy.
Manny Scale ™ Rating: 1.5
8. Hal Gill
•Disliked for his on-ice or off-ice activities? On-ice.
•Reasons why: He was 6-foot-7 but played like he was 5-foot-7 and when it came to going into the corners he acted like my lovely trophy wife does when she has to go into a room that has a bug in it.
•Mitigating factors: Gill's Bruins were too irrelevant to get worked up about.
Manny Scale ™ Rating: 2.0
7. Wade Boggs
•Disliked for his on-field or off-field activities? Both, but mostly off-field.
•Reasons why: He was obsessed with his own numbers. He once referred to himself in the third person three times in one sentence. Once let a teammate get thrown out on a hit and run because, "Wade Boggs does not swing at the first pitch." Tore the team apart with his poor choice of road beef. Claimed he escaped a man who pulled a knife on him by "willing myself invisible."
•Mitigating factors: He's in the Hall of Fame. He got on base 300 times a year, guaranteed. And a man who shotgunned 64 Miller Lites on one plane trip can drink from my canteen anytime.
Manny Scale ™ Rating: 3.0
6. Edgar Renteria
•Disliked for his on-field or off-field activities? On-field
•Reasons why: We thought Tony La Russa was just being a sore loser when he warned us that Rent-a-wreck wouldn't be able to handle the pressure of playing in Fenway every day. And he proved it by acting like every game we were forcing him to walk the Green Mile.
•Mitigating factors: After getting traded to the Braves, he said he was much happier playing in Atlanta. They were in last place at the time. So at least we know it was him and not us.
Manny Scale ™ Rating: 4.0
5. Adalius Thomas
•Disliked for his on-field or off-field activities? Both
•Reasons why: The biggest, splashiest free agent signing of the Belichick era had an interception in his first game as a Patriot. And that concludes his list of accomplishments. He did nothing on the field after that. Was a healthy scratch for two games in 2009 in which the Pats outscored their opponents 79-10. He was late for a meeting that 49 other players made it on time to, including his superstar QB who's wife had just had a baby, then blamed the fact that there was traffic and he doesn't have a George Jetson flying car.
•Mitigating factors: They cut him in 2010 and no other team would touch him.
Manny Scale ™ Rating: 5.5
4. Dice-K
•Disliked for his on-field or off-field activities? Both
•Reasons why: His pitching style of circling the mound between every pitch and running every count to 3-2 should be banned by the UN as a human rights violation. And when the Sox babied him through his disastrous 2008 season, he complained about the way they were handling him, which took no less than six months off poor Terry Francona's life.
•Mitigating factors: The 2007 World Series. Ten million t-shirts sold.
Manny Scale ™ Rating: 6.0
3. Antoine Walker
•Disliked for his on-court or off-court activities? On-court
•Reasons why: 'Toine's maddening insistence of keeping his 6-foot-9 frame as far away from the basket and blindly lobbing 3s defined the awful Celtics teams of the '90s. As did that asinine Walker Wiggle that no one but him ever liked.
•Mitigating factors: He blew all his money in Vegas and is currently playing in an over-40 semi-pro league or something just to pay his bills, so I'll be kind.
Manny Scale ™ Rating: 7.0
2. Carl Everett
•Disliked for his on-field or off-field activities? Both
•Reasons why: Played for the Sox during two Family Day promotions. In the first one he conducted an insane tirade that carried over into the Sox dugout and was really only funny for the first 20 minutes. On the second, he got tossed for arguing balls and strikes, then grabbed his junk in the direction of the ump. In the first workout following the 9/11 massacre — with the country still in a state of shock — he got into a beef with Joe Kerrigan in which he followed the manager around screaming in his face for reasons no one ever really understood.
•Mitigating factors: For the first month or so, his disbelief in dinosaurs and moon landings was kind of kooky and endearing. But it didn't last.
Manny Scale ™ Rating: 8.5
1. Roger Clemens
•Disliked for his on-field or off-field activities? Both.
•Reasons why: Where do you begin with this selfish, pompous, lying, egomaniacal, money-grubbing phony? How about the time he showed up to spring training late then made hapless, pathetic new manager Butch Hobson jog after him like a Trekkie trying to get a word with Leonard Nimoy at Comic-Con? Or the fact that he didn't start using steroids until after he left Boston so he went 40-39 in his last four years when we could've used him. Those as good a place as any.
•Mitigating factors: None. Unless he gets led away in handcuffs in answer to my prayers.
Manny Scale ™ Rating: 9.5.
So, congratulations, Manny. You might be a disgrace and have cost yourself any chance of getting into Cooperstown, but at least when it comes to the Manny Scale, you're the only Perfect 10.

On my way out of town in April, stopped and got the bacon, egg and cheese burrito. It was VERY good. In fact, I have been back several times for this item. Breakfast is delicious!!.
This is our go to place when we are in a hurry or hitting the road. The menu is varied and always changing. One of the first to offer "pretzel bread" for sandwiches. And their fries are good with choice of dipping sauces which MickeyD's, BergerQueen, etc doesn't offer. And you are not stuck with Coke products for fountain drinks....
Ate lunch here and it was great!!!! Had the hot club on a pretzel bun with onion rings. Both were hot and fresh!!!! Great sandwich!!! Will definitely be back!!!
We visited our first Sheetz in Roanoke several years ago and discovered computer ordering for food-to-go. Now we are addicted and have visited many others. At first glance you might think this is just an ordinary convenience store, but you would be mistaken. Many of the stores have eat-in or eat-out areas. If you are in a hurry, you can...
We always enjoy the one dollar coffee at Sheetz,, especially with the many different creamers and auto dispensing sweetener machines. Plus they always seem to have the cheapest gas around.
Good deal on subs and other fast food. Clean and fast preparation to order. Sheetz is a good chain. Gas is usually competetively priced
If you have never drunkenly eaten Sheetz crazy expensive chicken strips you are missing out! They are good even sober! And their burritos are the bomb. You can add extra beans, cheese, made to order yall! I will take Sheetz over a 7-11 hotdog or mini taco anyday or night, or midnight....
Worst cheeseburger I've ever eaten. Greasy nasty place.

GOP Official Resigns After Racially Charged Attack
- Written by The Chicago Defender
- Published in Chicago
An Illinois GOP official has resigned from his post after sending a racially charged email attacking a black female congressional candidate.
Jim Allen stepped down from his post as Mongomery County Republican Party chairman after an email he sent about former Miss America and GOP congressional candidate Erika Harold was published by Republican News Watch. Illinois Republican Party Chairman Jack Dorgan, who called the email "offensive and inappropriate," accepted Allen's resignation on Thursday.
In the email sent Tuesday to Republican News Watch editor Doug Ibendahl, Allen called Harold, who will challenge Rep. Rodney Davis (R-Ill.) in next year's primary, a "street walker."
"Rodney Davis will win and the love child of the D.N.C. will be back in Shitcago by May of 2014 working for some law firm that needs to meet their quota for minority hires," Allen wrote. "The little queen touts her abstinence and she won the crown because she got bullied in school,,,boohoo..kids are cruel, life sucks and you move on.. Now, miss queen is being used like a street walker and her pimps are the DEMOCRAT PARTY and RINO REPUBLICANS."
Allen's comments were immediately met with backlash from GOP officials, including Republican National Committee Chairman Reince Priebus.
"The astonishingly offensive views expressed by Chairman Allen have absolutely no place among the leaders of our party at any level," Priebus wrote in a Thursday statement. "His behavior is inexcusable and must not be tolerated. He should apologize to Erika Harold and resign immediately."
Davis also called on Allen to resign during a Thursday conference call, according to the Associated Press.

Due to a connectivity problem between Google Scholar and the library's product used for journal access, links to the library's full-text collection will be unavailable within Google Scholar until Thursday, November 27. Though the connectivity issue has been fixed, scheduled Google updates will not occur until that time.
Altmetrics measure the impact not only of journal articles but a diverse array of online scholarly outputs such as books, book chapters, data sets, computer code, presentation slides, posters, blog posts, digital humanities projects, and websites.
In addition to scholarly impact, altmetrics also measure impact beyond the academy, for example through Wikipedia citations, media mentions, Delicious saves, Tweets, and Facebook posts. This ability to measure public impact is valuable to authors, institutions, and research funders in helping them gauge the real-world impact of their scholarship and the scholarship they support.
Altmetrics are also more immediate than traditional measures of impact like citations that take time to accrue.
Because altmetrics measure impact beyond the journal article, measure more types of impact, and are available right away, they can free scholars to experiment with and receive credit for new types of scholarly products.
Altmetric data can be viewed within Scopus records, as well as with a free booklmarket from Altmetric.com. Additionally, more and more publishers, like Wiley, are adding altmetric data to their articles.
Article-Level Metrics, similar to altmetrics, are an attempt to measure impact at the article level.
They can include traditional measures of impact such as citation counts as well as newer metrics like the number of times an article was downloaded.
A growing number of journals and publishing platforms are making article-level metrics available. For example, article-level metrics are provided for every article published by the Public Library of Science (PLoS). Metrics include total article views and downloads; citation data from Scopus, Web of Science, CrossRef, and Google Scholar; bookmarks in Mendeley and CiteULike; and mentions on blogs, Facebook, and Twitter.

The library has replaced its lone public copier/scanner with a new, easy to use, multifunctional scanning station. The new scanner set-up might look a little complicated. After all, it's made up of four pieces instead of the one upright copier. But it's twice as fast as the old machine. Even better, there's an intuitive touch menu that allows you to crop, zoom, edit, rotate, straighten, and delete pages from a document. You no longer need access to Adobe Pro or photo editing software to put the finishing touches on your document.
Five main options:
- Scan to USB
- Scan to email
- Scan to printer (B&W $.10/pg; Color $.25/page)
- Scan to smart phone/tablet (requires a QR code reader)
- Scan to Google Docs
Five file format options:
- Word
- Searchable PDF
Printing options:
- Black and White ($.10/page)
- Color ($.25/page)
- 8 ½ x 11
- 8 ½ x 14
Scanning options:
- Feeder for individual pages
- Feeder does single-sided and double-sided
- Flatbed scanner for books, photos, passports, posters, etc.
A few things to keep in mind:
- The scanner is free, but printing the scans takes cash (coins or bills) only.
- Scanning to a Smart Phone should be kept to only a few pages; scanning to email in color is usually limited to about 10 pages of color (20 pages of black and white).
- Printing costs cannot be taken from your student account.
- You cannot pull files off of a flash drive, so there is still no color printing available (just color copies).
- When using the feeder, the print faces the wall.
- Although you can copy both pages from a book or journal at one time, this scanner does not separate them into two pages in the file. So if you want to print more than one page from a book, it would be best to copy one page at a time. Otherwise the text will shrink when printing.
- The flatbed scanner reads from the opposite corner as the old copier–look for the arrow at the front left.

The Red Baron Pizza Squadron
celebrates its 25th year in 2004, making it the oldest civilian air
show team in aviation. Speaking for his teammates, Jim Keller,
Travis Aukes and Erick Nodland, Jeff Randall told a newspaper in
Clayton County (GA) over the weekend, "Every day is fun on this
Flying carefully-restored Stearmans built in the 1930s and
1940s, Randall and his team have run into some people who are even
more familiar with the history of the aircraft than they are.
"At a show a man came up to me and said, 'I trained in that
airplane.' I said, 'Yeah, that's great, you know, I hear that all
the time,'" Randall said. "But then he said no, I trained in that
airplane with that tail number!"
Randall, 44, of Phoenix (AZ), began
flying with the Red Barons almost 20 years ago. In fact, he says
one of the original Red Baron members taught him to fly.
The team performed over the Atlanta Motor Speedway in advance of
the big NASCAR race there this weekend. To honor the squadron's
anniversary, Schwan Food Company -- makers of Red Baron Pizza --
repainted the number 41 car it sponsors on the NASCAR circuit. The
car Ken Schrader drives is now red and black -- just like the
Stearmans the Red Barons fly.

1/1 Photo of Chewy Chocolate Cookies
Prep Time:
Cook Time:
45 mins
22 mins
This is a Cook's Illustrated recipe that was originally published in January 2009. These are dark, almost fudgy cookies that are not crumbly at all. They develop a nice, crackly top and are not overly sweet, even with the granulated sugar coating. CI recommends using Callebaut Intense Dark L-60-40NV, but any high- quality dark, bittersweet, or semisweet chocolate will work. Light brown sugar can be substituted for the dark, as can light corn syrup for the dark, but with some sacrifice in flavor. A spring-loaded ice cream scoop (size #30) can be used to portion the dough.

The Arkoma Lady Mustangs went to the Class A State Tournament last year for the first time since 1992. They're hoping to return this season.
The Lady Mustangs, who were 25-5 last season, will begin their 2014-15 campaign at 6:30 p.m. Friday against Providence Academy from Rogers, Ark. at the Arkoma Gym.
Editor's note: No preseason information has been received on the Arkoma Mustangs. Once it has, as well as preseason information on other LeFlore County teams AND their season openers get closer, season preview stories on those teams will be published.
Last season, the Talihina Golden Tigers football team got to the Class A state semifinals before losing its only game of 2013 to Ringling to miss out by a win of playing for the gold ball.
This year, Talihina senior quarterback Alan Lockhart and senior linebacker Logan Hillebrand are doing their part to help the Golden Tigers make another deep playoff run this season.
Even though the Morrison Wildcats defeated Okeene by the score of 36-7 in their Class A opening-round playoff game last week, they seemed to have lost favor with the pollsters as they dropped out of the Top 10 in Oklahoma Class A. The Oklahoma State Associated Press Class A Poll had the 'Cats 10th, but once the regular season ends, the weekly poll does as well.
WHITESBORO — A strong second quarter helped the Whitesboro Bulldogs pull away from the Cameron Yellowjackets for a 59-44 victory Tuesday night at Steve Linker Gymnasium.
Trailing 8-7 after one period, the 'Dogs outscored the 'Jackets 23-9 in the second quarter to take a 30-17 halftime lead.
Red Oak 64, Leflore 48: At C.C. Gillespie Fieldhouse in Red Oak, the Eagles handed the Savages their first loss of the season.
The Eagles jumped out to a 13-5 lead after a period and never lost their advantage.
WHITESBORO — The Whitesboro Lady Bulldogs took advantage of the Cameron Lady Yellowjackets only having five players as the hosts proved to be too much on this night, posting a 56-24 win Tuesday night at Steve Linker Gymnasium.
A free throw by Cameron's Destiny Dunigan cut her team's deficit to 9-8 with 30 seconds left in the opening period.
However, from there, the Lady Bulldogs outscored the Lady 'Jackets 23-7 to end the first half as Whitesboro took a 32-15 halftime lead.
Of the 16 teams remaining in the Class 2A high school football playoffs, only one got a opening-round road postseason win — the Panama Razorbacks, who downed the Chandler Lions 35-21 Friday night. It was the first-ever Class 2A postseason victory for the Hogs.
"It was great because that was the first-ever playoff game I've ever won, and it was the first playoff win for our seniors," Panama junior quarterback Andy Burris said. I've been with them since I was little, and I know it was great for them. I was trying to win it for them. It feels good to make history."
WISTER — The Wister High School basketball teams swept both games from the visiting Smithville squads Friday night at the Wister Gym.
The Wildcats beat the Braves 53-49 in overtime, while the Lady 'Cats handled the Lady Braves 62-39.
Just a reminder to LeFlore County high school basketball coaches to be sure to send me your preseason questionnaires that were sent out last month. Now, that some of the football schools whose season on the gridiron are over will soon be starting their seasons on the hardwood.
The questionnaires are used for me to write the season-preview stories about our local teams. The questionnaires may be faxed to me at (918) 647-8198 or e-mailed to me at firstname.lastname@example.com or shared as a photograph on my Facebook wall for me to download.
The Carl Albert State College Lady Vikings basketball team split its two games in last weekend's Don Wilson Classic in Neosho, Mo.
The Lady Vikings beat the host team, Crowder College, 63-52 Friday night, but they lost Saturday afternoon 96-87 to North Arkansas College.
The Lady Vikings will return to action at 6 p.m. Thursday against archrival Eastern Oklahoma State College at Mick Thompson Fieldhouse. The men's game will follow at 8 p.m.
FAYETTEVILLE, Ark. — Arkansas coach Bret Bielema kept telling fans to be patient, that good things were coming. At least one of those good things happened on a cold Saturday night on Frank Broyles Field at Donald W. Reynolds Razorback Stadium.
The Arkansas Razorbacks snapped their 17-game Southeastern Conference losing streak by blanking the Louisiana State University Tigers 17-0. The win not only snapped the conference winless streak, but enabled the Hogs to claim "The Golden Boot" — the trophy awarded annually to the Arkansas-LSU game victor.

AFRICA/KENYA - Polio alert in the Horn of Africa: planned vaccination campaigns for millions of children
Kisumu (Agenzia Fides) – Thanks to large-scale vaccination campaigns to millions of vulnerable children one is trying to limit the spread of polio in the Horn of Africa. Outbreaks have been reported in Kenya and Ethiopia, and the most serious epidemics in neighboring Somalia, with 183 confirmed cases from the beginning of the year to October. This is what emerges from the data of the UN Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs (OCHA). This is the first outbreak in Somalia since 2007 and, to cope with the problem, between 20 and 26 October, 3 million and a half children under 10 years of age were vaccinated. Further campaigns are planned for the months of November and December. Health authorities fear that if the polio epidemic in Somalia is not immediately put under monitoring, global efforts to eliminate the disease once and for all could be compromised. According to the Global Polio Eradication Initiative (GPEI), until 13 November this year, there have been 334 cases globally, compared to 187 in the same period in 2012. Vaccination campaigns are also planned in Ethiopia and Sudan. In South Sudan, there have been no cases of infection since June 2009, and there is great concern for South Kordofan and the Blue Nile States, where there is no access to humanitarian structures. In Kenya, where there have been 14 cases of polio, the lack of security on the border with Somalia is considered to be in part due to the spread of the disease. In fact, until the criminal gangs such as Al- Shabab continue to pose a threat, health professionals cannot reach the villages for fear of attacks. Of the 14 cases, 10 were reported in the Dadaab refugee camp, eastern Kenya, where there are about 400 thousand Somalis. The Kenyan Ministry of Health, in 2013, is planning the vaccination for about 8 million children under 5 years of age and in the 5 previous campaigns 5 million and a half were vaccinated.

STLV 2012 Photos!
Hey guys, I had a great time at my first Star Trek Vegas Con. Just wanted to say thanks to all of you who showed up, said hello, pitched your ideas and everything else. I know a few of you flew from all over the globe and it meant a lot to meet you guys in person.
Also a huge thanks to all the podcasters who showed us around, and demoed STO at the Trek Radio Booth pretty much the whole time. It was amazing and everyone at Cryptic is grateful for your efforts.
Enough with that nonsense, on to the photos! I took roughly 2500 photos over the long weekend, and these are the decent ones from that set.
Thanks for sharing these, Tacohead!
And I mirror your comments: a HUGE thanks too all the players who came out, and all the podcasts/ radio stations that showed your support at STLV. We couldn't have done it without you all!
Brandon =/\=
wish could have been there! thanks for the pics, they will have to do
Wow... Kate Mulgrew has really let herself go lately... O.e
And Aaaaah.... the Enterprise D.... It has been so long my friend.... :(
Soo... Devs/Execs and all,
It appears to have been a good experience. Are you thinking of doing it again? Never been to Vegas, not into gambling, so perhaps this might be excuse one day to go, drop by, and see the rest of Vegas while we are at it.
1. Wow Hirogen Borg is insane.
2. Remote Control Horta is awesome..
3. Please get dancing borg into the game as an easter egg somewhere.
4. Wow Riker is getting beat by the age stick.. Sirtis... can I still get your phone number?
5. Brent, Dorn, and Burton are getting old too... this is depressing...
6. Gorn with an Elvis suit! Too bad they are KDF or I'd say one should be in club 47 on occasion...
Everyone is getting older, all of the time. . . ST crews are no exception.
I'm surprised no-one recorded any of the panels, or if they did they're not on youtube, I would liked to see some of those Panels, especially the Captains one.

Police: Arrest made in Cumru Trail slaying; 2 others sought
Updated On: Oct 20 2012 10:34:09 AM CDT
Police are searching for two men who they say are armed and dangerous. Thursday night one man was arrested for allegedly kidnapping and then killing a man near the Thun Trail a few weeks ago.
Police said he didn't do it alone and need your help finding the other suspects.
Investigators say from witnesses coming forward... they were able to identify the three men are responsible for Luis Salas-Ramos' death. But, they still need more information.
District Attorney John Adams announced the arrest of Jose Arnaldo Rivera-Aguirre, also known as "Naldi."
"We are still looking for two other individuals who we believe were involved with this crime," said Adams.
Adams said Naldi and the two others are all facing charges of 1st-, 2nd- and 3rd-degree murder and kidnapping.
According to court documents, on September 23, 2012 in the 200 block of Wood Street in Reading witnesses saw Luis Salas-Ramos being hit in the face with a gun, beaten unconscious and then thrown into the back of a red Jeep by three men.
"We believe this Jeep was involved in this crime and we are asking for any information," said Adams.
Adams said the Jeep is in police custody. But they are still looking for the men they said helped "Naldi" beat Salas-Ramos in Reading and then transported him to the Thun Trail in Cumru Township.
"We do believe he was kidnapped, and taken to Cumru Township where he was murdered," said Adams.
Police are looking for Miguel Rosario Ramos, 35, or "Ponce" and Victor Borges-Rivera, 20, or "Pollo."
Both men's last known addresses were in Reading. Pollo's address was in the 200 block of Wood Street where Salas-Ramos was last seen alive.
"I think it's imperative that they are taken into custody," said Adams.
Cumru Township Police, Reading, Police, and Berks County detectives are all working on this case. If you any information on where these men are hiding, you can contact them or Crime Alert Berks County.
Cumru Township Police at #610-777-9595
Reading Police at #610-655-6116
Crime Alert Berks County at #877-373-9913.
