Batman: Arkham City turns Hollywood into Gotham
The midnight arrival of Batman: Arkham City Tuesday brought diehard fans to the GameStop store in West Hollywood to find the shop transformed into a mockup of Gotham City.
WEST HOLLYWOOD, Calif.--To celebrate today's release of the eagerly awaited Batman: Arkham City, Rocksteady Studios and Warner Brothers Interactive last night transformed the GameStop store on the outer fringes of Hollywood into a mini Gotham City where bleary eyed fans could snag a late-night copy of the PS3 and Xbox 360 title.
About 200 fans of varying ages (some in event-appropriate costumed attire) waited patiently outside the store until the doors opened and the store welcomed them into a mock-up of the game's seedy urban world. Those in attendance had a chance to meet game writer Paul Dini, and they could win prizes (such as two life-size Batman statues on display).
is the sequel to the successful Batman: Arkham Asylum, a game that saw everyone's favorite haunted hero take on the Joker and other villains inside a gloomy loony bin.
The sequel opens that game's world into the city itself as Gotham devotes a portion of its most rundown districts into Arkham City, a sort of "Escape from New York" concept of letting criminals and lunatics run wild in a tiny, contained world of their own. The Joker makes a return appearance, along with Dr. Hugo Strange, the Penguin, and Catwoman.
Dini told CNET he's excited about the game and proud of the two years it took to create it with Rocksteady's designers.
"The creative process for a game like this is never over until it's in the box and shipped to the stores," Dini said. "As recently as a month ago, I was in London going over final script pages for the game. I think the designers tweaked it and improved the world until the very last minute."
You can see some images from the premiere event in our gallery.

Law School Turns 35
Seattle University School of Law has changed a lot in the past 35 years. Now it's time to honor the history, celebrate the achievements and look toward the future of the School of Law.
Throughout the 2007-08 academic year, Seattle University School of Law will commemorate the 35th anniversary of its founding year of 1972/73.
April 25 Gala
Seattle University School of Law will celebrate 35 years of standing for excellence and reaching for justice with a gala celebration on Friday, April 25, 2008 at Benaroya Hall in downtown Seattle.
The evening will feature The Seattle Symphony Orchestra performing Aaron Copland's "Lincoln Portrait," under the direction of Music Director Gerard Schwarz with a special guest narrator. A formal dinner and dancing will follow.
Watch your mail for a formal invitation. For more information, contact 35th anniversary coordinator Eva Mitchell at firstname.lastname@example.com.
Kickoff Reception in Tacoma
We've changed a lot in the past 35 years. But we have never forgotten our Tacoma roots. More than 500 people from the law school community turned out to celebrate those roots at a spectacular reception at the Museum of Glass on October 17, 2007. It was a great night of reminiscing about where the law school started and looking ahead to where it's going. Alumni reconnected with classmates and their professors, and the law school recognized the core group of founding faculty that got the law school off the ground.
Look for coverage of the event in the winter 2007 issue of the Lawyer.

New Global High-Yield Bond Fund Offers Promise
Bond investors face various types of risk including credit risk, which is risk of default, and interest rate risk, which is the adverse effect on bond prices when yields rise. PGHY takes credit risk but reasonably avoids interest rate risk. From the top down, an investor who believes there is still the threat of widespread defaults left over from the financial crisis would not want to invest in PGHY because the fund would indeed be hurt by such an outcome.
The current events in the capital markets merit closer attention here for their potential to impact upon PGHY. In May many segments of the bond market declined as investors started to price in a "tapering" of Fed policy. Then, this week, Fed Chairman Ben Bernanke laid out a scenario where quantitative easing could slow down this year and end next year.
This has caused a panic in the bond market. The yield on the 10-year U.S. Treasury has increased by almost a full percentage point in just a few weeks, which is a very large move.
Panics are difficult to see coming and difficult to analyze in terms of how long they might last. Panics can be recognized for what they are and so better managed emotionally. This is not the first time that there have been large declines in things like closed end funds, high-yield ETFs and other long dated bond funds and won't be the last time.Investors interested in buying PGHY would be better off waiting for the panic to subside before considering a position in this new fund. At the time of publication the author had no position in any of the stocks mentioned.

Ukraine pulled away in the fourth quarter as they wrapped up their successful EuroBasket Qualification Round Group C campaign with a 69-51 win over Cyprus.
Ukraine had already booked their ticket to Slovenia with a victory over Austria last weekend.
With their progression already secured, it was a largely subdued performance from Ukraine as they laboured against winless Cyprus, who started the second quarter on a 7-1 spurt to take a 20-19 lead on Panagiotis Trisokkas' three-pointer.
Ukraine's lead was just 28-27 at half-time and Cyprus took the lead twice more before ending the third quarter trailing 41-37 after Dmytro Zabirchenko split his free throws for Ukraine.
But the hosts started the final period on a charge, scoring 10 unanswered points to lead 51-37 on Maxym Korniyenko's dunk.
A three-pointer from Korniyenko stretched it to 61-42 with 4:33 left and there was no way back for Cyprus.
Steven Burtt led Ukraine with 13 points while Korniyenko had 12, Sergii Gladyr 11 and Artur Drozdov 10.
Trisokkas led Cyrprus with 15 points while Anthony King added 14 and Andreas Sizopoulos 10.

"Daddy's Rack"
I am not sure if I am spelling the term right, but "Chee-Chees" in this case refers to "breasts," and is a spanish term that Melissa initially used to teach Olivia to ask for breastfeeding. We actually had to start calling them "na-nas" once Olivia could speak clearly, because she started to yell out in stores, "Mama!! Chee-Chees! Chee-Chees!," which would mortify Melissa each time. This incident didn't happen as shown in the comic, though Olivia did come and laugh wearing Mommy's bra and came up with the joke on her own about having "Chee-Chees," the rest I just thought made for a funnier joke.
Thank you to everyone who has been voting for "Clumsy Love" on "Top Web Comics," I am hoping to get it into the top 100 some day!:
Thanks again, and see you Friday!

I ordered these for the bedroom because I could not afford the nicer ones I already bought from blinds chalet.
Nov 4 2013
Installation: I installed my own blinds!
I ordered these for the bedroom because I could not afford the nicer ones I already bought from blinds chalet. They call these basic and they are still nicer than most I have seen. I love them!!! So glad I chose Blinds Chalet. They got them to my house fast.
cincinnati, OH
The blinds arrived pretty quickly.
Oct 19 2013
Installation: I installed my own blinds!
The blinds arrived pretty quickly. They really look nice. The price was good. The only thing that makes me a little nervous is that one of the blinds I ordered was 96" in width and there are only 3 brackets holding it up. The blinds are very heavy and the directions say that there should be 4 brackets for this one. But they open and close easily, you just have to make sure that when closing the big one, you hang on to it tightly so that it doesn't "slam" down. The installation was a little "hokey" to, you are supposed to put the blind on the brackets, then hold the blinds up to the wall and mark the brackets. The problem with that is the blinds are in the way for marking them. It was hard to hold the blinds out of the way and mark the wall, plus the blinds were heavy to do this. You need more than 2 people for this. One on each end of the blind and one person marking the bracket. We just measured the hole for the middle bracket because that one was the most important one that needed to be right on. The side ones had a little bit of wiggle room for the bracket placement. Otherwise they are great. I would definitely order from here again.

This shade is for my teenage son's room. We love the shade. I was impress that the order came out right since I had to change it on the phone after I placed the order. We really like the moveable liner also. He can choose to have a lighter room or dark just by raising or lowering the liner.
Fort Worth, TX
These are great shades.
Oct 16 2013
Installation: I installed my own blinds!
These are great shades. Look marvelous. Very forgiving to hang as they are very adjustable to account for incorrect measuring on the part of a novice measuring tape user! Am planning on making my third purchase, and more, to make the whole house bamboo shaded. I had purchased blinds that are 45% privacy and they are absolutely wonderful for their insulation quality which was an extremely nice unexpected benefit.
Alliance, NC
These shades were perfect!
Oct 10 2013
Installation: I installed my own blinds!
These shades were perfect! The fit was exact, they were true to the photos online and the sample I received. They were easy to install, all the hardware was included and there was no damage from shipping. I couldn't be happier and my kitchen looks great! I will be ordering from Blinds Chalet again. I am 100% satisfied.

There just aren't that many sources for qualified, experienced nursing tutors. Our private nursing and NCLEX tutors are practicing RN, MSN, APN, and even PhDs in Nursing, but they are also passionate educators who love to help future nurses pass the NCLEX on their first, or next, try.
We provide customized, 1-1 nursing tutoring for: Nursing entrance exams (e.g., HEMI), NCLEX prep, undergraduate and graduate nursing classes including: Algebra, Calculus, Chemistry, Pharmacology, Biology, Statistics, etc.
Here at MyGuru we are in the process of recruiting new NCLEX tutors, as we are currently experiencing more demand for tutors than we can handle. As a result, we've partnered with Wyzant to provide in-person NCLEX tutoring options.
Most students seem to prefer to meet with an NCLEX tutor in-person, but online, email, and phone-based support as you're preparing for the NCLEX can be more convenient and just as effective. Ann L., above, delivers a majority of her NCLEX tutoring remotely. Click here for more information on our proven and trusted online tutoring.

Flying Dutchmen - Blueberry Skunk
- Seed Bank: Flying Dutchmen
- Type: Feminised
Cannabis Seeds Information
The Flying Dutchmen has been doing their thing for many years and, after years of research, they are absolute masters of their craft. The Blueberry Skunk strain is a great example of this mastery – a next generation hybrid that take two very popular strains and brings them crashing together in a wonderful balance of mutual strengths.
Taking the grower's favourite, Skunk #1 with its fantastic yield, growth strength and reliable harvest and welding on the stunning fruit notes and generous resin production of Blueberry, this represents all that is great about clone management.
Whilst there is clear indica dominance in this strain, there are still plenty of sativa tendencies in the mix – you can expect a burst in growth through the flowering phase, bringing with it a dense, chubby swathe of buds amongst the internodes, all slathered with heady resin. These guys love their work and so do we – weed seeds to be treasured.
Flowering: 55-65 days
Yield: 100g
Height: 120-160cm
Product descriptions are provided by the breeders. The germination of cannabis seeds is illegal in most countries and all products on this site are sold for souvenir purposes only or for the preservation of genetics should laws change in the future. PLEASE DO NOT BREAK THE LAW.
Pick and mix orders are always labelled separately and for peace of mind we include an equal portion of the original packaging. Orders of whole packets are supplied in the original sealed packaging.

text: Native New Zealander, now Sydney resident Gin Wigmore is fast becoming a darling of the live scene across Australia, but it's unfortunate that just as she's hitting her strides, artists like Amy Winehouse, Duffy, Gabriella Cilmi and even Paris Wells to a lesser extent are enjoying their moments in the sun. 'Cause vocally, they all rather similar. But fans of John Butler may also get on board with this single, as he plays ukelele on the single (erm, but that's NOT John Butler on the video...). We'll admit it's classy pOp that sounds very familiar, but given radio in Australia hasn't really got behind Amy, Duffy, and Paris (though to be fair, they gave Gabriella a fair shot), it's unlikely Gin will get the exposure needed at radio to really give her the kick along she needs and moreover deserves.

Excepting greater State intervention in the welfare of SCs, STs and BCs
Chief Minister Siddaramaiah's budget has largely been read as "pro-people", even though his detractors argue that this focus is with a clear eye on the coming Lok Sabha polls.
A closer reading of the budget, however, throws up many issues that hardly justify the much-talked about Socialist leanings of Mr. Siddaramaiah.
One particularly glaring contradiction between the so-called welfare intent and neo-liberal pulls can be seen in the agriculture sector.
Opposite directions
While the budget announces the formation of an Agricultural Prices Commission to fix suitable prices, it also says that the report of the Agriculture Marketing Reforms Committee will be implemented from this year.
It is interesting to note that the report in question, submitted in 2012 to the Union government, recommended doing away with State regulation of agricultural marketing and argued against Minimum Support Price.
The budget offers nothing for unorganised agricultural labourers.
In the primary education sector too, there is hardly any suggestion of a more equitable common system of schooling. The very first proposal under this head suggests that the public-private partnership model will be continued with a specific thrust on help from "willing philanthropists, institutions and corporate sector".
As far as higher education is concerned, interestingly, the budget is silent on the controversial decision of the BJP government on private universities.
This thrust on private sector is only more pronounced on the infrastructure front, with the government seeking to bring an amendment to Infrastructure Policy of 2007 to encourage all infrastructure development through public-private partnership model.
A lack of welfare intent is visible on the question of labour too.
Barring the promise of phasing out contractual system in the hiring of pourakarmikas, none of the other measures address the question of wages or other forms of labour welfare.
The singular thrust under this head appears to be skill training. On the question of revenue generation, the Chief Minister has made it clear that one way of augmenting resources would be through an increase in user fee.
This, in essence, means that all services that were free or cheap will see a hike. He has fixed the target of mobilising an additional Rs. 4,038 crore from such non-tax revenues. He has not only announced "rationally" increasing water rates, and greater privatisation of water supply, but also toll collection on nine major State highways.
Some shifts
While Mr. Siddaramaiah's budget does show some shifts compared to the BJP regime — markedly in terms of greater State intervention for the welfare of Scheduled Castes, Scheduled Tribes and Backward Classes and the absence of generous donations to religious maths and institutions run by dominant castes — there is little else to indicate that welfare is indeed the larger focus.

Artificial Intelligence, or AI, commonly refers to the programmed behaviors of NPCs in a game, whether it's the fact that a soldier takes cover behind a wall in Gears of War, or that townspeople cheer upon your arrival to their village in Fable.
Auto-aiming (or Auto-targeting) allows for a character to attack or interact with an object or enemy that's very near to the player or within their field of vision.
Automated Grenade Throw refers to games that have specific controls for tossing a grenade, as opposed to being forced to switch out your current weapon with a grenade before throwing.
Backtracking is the act of navigating through previously explored areas, usually for the purpose of progressing in an objective-based adventure game. Players who are lost may also backtrack to reorient themselves.
Also known as DK Mode, this silly option makes the physical character models in the game have enormous heads, and occasionally equally oversized arms. Usually accessed through a cheat code.
A race from the planet Orxon.
A boss fight is a culminating challenge that pits the player against one or more enemies representing a greater threat and/or difficulty than those previously faced. These scenarios typically feature unique antagonists.
Video game bosses are usually the main antagonist, and arch nemesis of the main protagonist. In most cases the end of a game is when the main character defeats the final boss.
The deliberate animation of breasts, meant to titillate as a means to conform to more realistic physics.
When a character from an existing media franchise makes a brief appearance in a video game, sometimes without even openly acknowledging their origins.
A point within the game whereby the game saves its current state whether it be for the purpose of a more convenient respawn point or a gameplay design (such as in racing).
Climbing is a common tradition in games, particularly platformers. There is often a particular type of surface that can be climbed, and it has a recognizably different look than other surfaces in the game. Climbing ladders or stairs doesn't count.
Collectibles are items such as coins, rings, gems, packages etc. that can be gathered, usually for some kind of reward, or sometimes to simply beat a level. Often (almost too often) the source of earning achievements and trophies on the Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3.
A style of game that has platforming elements, but with more emphasis placed on fighting enemies than precise maneuvering through the level and its obstacles. Notable examples include Ratchet & Clank and early Ninja Gaiden games.
The comic relief is a character other than the main character who is meant to add humor and lighten the mood of the game. These characters are usually very dumb or very witty, and are always very talkative.
Currency has all forms in video games. It is used to buy characters, vehicles, weapons, and more.
DoT effects are most commonly found in Role Playing Games, and it describes the effects of a gameplay mechanic (often a magic spell) that causes incremental damage over a period of time such as a fire spell leaving someone to continually burn.
The main line of distinction between victory or failure in video games, death is the process of a biological being ceasing to be alive.
Any object or illusion used to draw an enemy's attention, in order to lure the enemy or distract from the user's activities elsewhere. Both players and enemies have been able to create decoys in many games.
A destructible environment means the player has the ability to destroy his/her surroundings. This allows players to use the environment to their advantage.
The dodge jump is used to leap a considerable distance at a fast pace to make it harder for an opponent to hit, jump across large gaps or even to get across areas quicker.
A double jump is the ability to jump while already in mid-air to get some extra lift. It totally violates the fundamental laws of physics, but we try not to think about that.
Drowning in games occurs when a being (not suited to be in water) runs out of oxygen, time, power, or barely even touches the water surface. Further complicated by the local sea-life that can knock the air out of you, should you get close.
Any type of lifeform whose species is on the brink of extinction. Important characters being "the last of their kind" was once so common in fiction that it has become a mocked cliche.
Concept where everything you need isn't always spelled out for you on the map. Sometimes even the map is not there till you go explore it.
A powerful release of energy. This energy is usually expelled in all directions very quickly, typically giving off orange or red flames.
A fictional currency is one where the object being exchanged does not exist in the real world, such as Final Fantasy's Gil, or are not used for exchange in the real world, such as Fallout's bottlecaps.

How to Evaluate the Risks When Companies Copy Apple's Technology
NEW YORK ( TheStreet) -- Apple (AAPL) introduces the iPad. Suddenly the world is full of tablets. Apple gets interested in TV. Suddenly there's Chromecast, Fire TV and Android TV. Apple looks to be getting into smartwatches and health monitoring. Microsoft (MSFT) is suddenly interested. How does one evaluate the prospects of all the imitators?
When thinking about the prospects of any given company, one has to be aware of why a given product becomes so popular. How a company designs and shepherds a product to market is important, and a rash desire to cash in on a competitor's product popularity, without sufficient technical maturity, can be fatal.
Another consideration for any company facing popular new products from a competitor like Apple is the fear of being left behind. For example, Microsoft spotted Apple a 30 month head start with the iPad and paid a heavy price in unsold Surface write-offs and a post-PC era stagnation of its stock. In fact, Microsoft may never be able to catch up. Samsung
(SSNLF), in contrast, got on the tablet bandwagon almost immediately and has been rewarded with much better market share.
Investing 101: Refine Your Research and Focus, Focus, Focus
Greenberg: Maybe It Wasn't the Weather, After AllApple Becomes the Top Momentum Stock as Tesla Hits the Brakes So timing as well technical preparedness is crucial and dictates whether copycat products have potential. Understanding Core Competencies Apple's original iPhone may look like an example of a company that jumped out of its previous zone of expertise: the Macintosh. When Steve Jobs returned, to save the company in 1997, he had to jettison everything but a quadrant of four professional and consumer Macs. How does a smartphone fit into that simple Mac portfolio? The answer is that Apple had developed quite a bit of expertise putting a beautiful, intuitive interface on top of Unix. Frustrated with semi-smartphones of the early 2000s, Apple executives realized that the hardware to run their terrific OS could suddenly be squeezed into a pocket smartphone. They could change the world.

Group practice innovators have been creating their own approaches to treat high-risk and chronic-care patients. The efforts of two group practices offer insights on achieving sustainable results that can benefit not just...
Barrow Neurological Institute in Phoenix is working to improve brain tumor research, with the greater goal of extending life expectancy for those with brain tumors. From the HealthLeaders Media Rounds event, "Neurological Service Line Growth: Telestroke & Brain Tumor Innovations," held in May at Barrow.
In one-on-one interviews, selected HealthLeaders Media Council members discuss whether they believe a shared governance model for service lines will become more or less relevant in the current climate of healthcare reform.
Hospitals and health systems are cautioned that employment doesn't equal alignment.
Healthcare leaders face a tough choice when it comes to joining a health information exchange. They must decide whether to join now and take an active role in development, or wait to see how things shake out a few years down the road.
The ROI may be down the road, but some process improvements can yield immediate benefits.
Specialized high-volume aortic centers are becoming increasingly important for hospitals treating vascular conditions because of their ROI and improved patient outcomes. As demand increases and technology improves, a strategic plan for this service line becomes especially important.
Michael Rowan, executive vice president and chief operations officer at Denver-based Catholic Health Initiatives, believes the mission of hospitals should expand beyond the fixed walls of a building and into the communities they serve. Rowan is an enthusiastic advocate for CHI's overseas missions, having traveled twice to Tanzania and once to Belize in the past five years to promote health services such as public sanitation, HIV/AIDS education and prevention, and malaria eradication. The second trip to Tanzania afforded him a chance to climb Mount Kilimanjaro.
The HealthLeaders 20 featured in this issue—people chosen by our editorial team for making a difference in healthcare—reflect not only the world of healthcare today but the world.

Bajra Roti Recipe
Bajra is pearl Millet. This is a gluten free. The bread is about 6" diameter, thickness of a Nickel (5¢ coin).
How to make Gluten free breads (Roti)
1. Pearl Millet Flour (Bajra Atta): 2 Cups
2. Salt: ¼ teaspoon
4. Melted Ghee for basting: Optional
1. Mix salt and Millet flour. Make a mound. With a finger, make a well in the flour mound. Add warm water and start mixing dough and knead. If the dough is too sticky, add 1 Table spoon of flour. If the dough is too hard, add up to one Tablespoon of water (one teaspoon at a time) to get the right consistency.
2. Gather dough in to a ball. Cover with damp kitchen towel or a plastic film. Let it rest 20 to 30 minutes at room temperature.
Rolling dough
We need to make a 6" diameter cookie about the about the thickness of a Nickel (5¢ coin) to bake each bread.
The lack of gluten makes it very difficult to roll out dough. Traditionally, the dough is rolled out by hand without a rolling pin. For convenience I will use rolling pin in conjunction with two pieces of Parchment / wax paper.
1. Pinch dough to form it into a ball
2. Put down one wax paper. Baste the wax paper with melted Ghee or oil.
3. Put the dough ball on the greased wax paper. Try to spread out patty as much as you like by hand.
4. Grease and put the second wax paper on top of the patty.
5. Use a rolling pin to roll out dough to form the round cookie of desired diameter.
6. Slowly peel-off the top sheet of wax paper. The exposed surface is skin surface.
7. Lift the dough cookie with the bottom paper in tact . Transfer the cookie on to hot griddle with skin surface down.
8. Slowly peel off the wax paper.
Bake the bread, repeat for the remaining dough.
Heat the griddle (Tawa) to about 350º F surface temperature. This is cooler than the temperature used to bake wheat Roti. If you don't have a thermometer to measure the surface temperature, put a test cookie on the Tawa. If the cookie sticks to the griddle, you need to increase heat. If the cookie gets brown spots too quick, it is too hot. The actual time to cook depends on moisture content and the thickness of the cookie. It should take about 30 seconds to develop scattered brown spots on the underside of the test cookie. You may baste the top surface with water before turning the cookie over to prevent dryness.
It takes about 3 to 4 minutes to bake each side of the cookie. The cookie is baked in three steps.
1. Put the rolled cookie on the griddle with skin surface down. Use a turner to lift a corner to see that the underside has a few brown spots. It will take 45 to 60 seconds. Baste the top surface with water.
2. Turn it over and let it bake. Bake 90 to 120 seconds, you will notice steam bubbles trapped in the dough. Again use a turner to lift a corner to see that the underside has a brown spots. Baste top surface with water.
Brush the the skin surface with melted Ghee.
Yogi's Notes
1. Substitute ¼ cup of Bajra Atta with equal amount of corn starch or Tapioca to make moist bread.
2. If you are not worried about Gluten, Substitute ½ cup of Bajra Atta with equal amount of wheat Atta. It will make rolling dough easier.

Park Place Motorsports and Children's Tumor Foundation Racing4Research Fight Back from Early Problems at the Rolex 24 At Daytona
No. 73 Park Place Motorsports/Racing4Research Porsche GT3 with Patrick Long, Daniel Graeff, Spencer Pumpelly, Patrick Lindsey and Jason Hart Recovers To Finish 16th after a String of Endurance Race Issues
DAYTONA BEACH, Florida (January 27, 2013) – Park Place Motorsports and the Children's Tumor Foundation (CTF) Racing4Research (R4R) program, with drivers Patrick Long, Daniel Graeff, Spencer Pumpelly, Patrick Lindsey and Jason Hart, turned in a resilient performance worthy of the young "NF Heroes" they were racing to support at this weekend's Rolex 24 At Daytona, January 26 – 27.
After running as high as second in the opening minutes of the day-long race, the team quickly slipped into a race of mixed fortunes that saw the No. 73 Park Place Motorsports/Racing4Research Porsche GT3 team encounter virtually every type of hardship the Rolex 24 At Daytona can throw at a team and drivers.
Between a wheel issue on a pit stop, a three minute stop-and-hold penalty for an improper wave-around and heavy contact in Daytona's "Bus Stop," the No. 73 was dealt a deck of cards that would ordinarily be difficult to overcome. Still, on every occasion, the team bounced back and made repairs to keep the car running and see the checkered flag in an eventual 16th place in the 34-car GT class.
"This year's Rolex 24 with Park Place Motorsports and the Children's Tumor Foundation Racing4Research program kind of exemplified to the families that are supporting us, in the way we raced," Hart said. "We were up against enormous racing opposition, and the theme throughout the entire time was always never quit. We ran race strategy, in order to get laps back, until the end. We were 23 laps back but it didn't matter to us. We were going to do everything we could to get that finish and every lap we could get back, every spot we could attain.
"I'm bummed because we had the car to win if we didn't have the adversity that we had," Hart added. "We fought for everything we had. That to me, means something because we don't have to go through what the families do in their fight with NF. The fight they go through, they never give up and we never give up. It felt like a small win and that's my big takeaway."
The only inspiration the No. 73 squad needed to stay the course during the rough Rolex 24 literally surrounded them all weekend. The Children's Tumor Foundation is dedicated to improving the health and well-being of individuals and families affected by Neurofibromatosis (NF), a common yet under-recognized genetic disorder that causes tumors to grow on nerves throughout the body. Neurofibromatosis can lead to blindness, bone abnormalities, cancer and excruciating and disabling pain.
Found in one of every 3,000 children born, NF is a more common disorder than many more widely known illnesses, including cystic fibrosis and Duchenne muscular dystrophy. The CTF/R4R program raises funds and awareness for the fight against NF through a busy and diverse racing program that is annually anchored by a Rolex 24 program. A highlight is the on-site presence and support of a large group of courageous youngsters and their families who have been nicknamed "NF Heroes" for their tireless efforts in fighting the disorder. Dozens of these resilient young people and their families attended this weekend's race and in turn gave their team the will to succeed and survive that they call on every day. Donations to CTF Racing4Research can be made directly at www.Racing4Research.org.
"It's the resiliency of this team and drivers who all dug deep to give us this finish," said Graeff, who has been a part of all six CTF/R4R Rolex 24 At Daytona driving efforts. "The most important aspect of it is that I had more than one child with NF come up to me and say, 'Thanks for not quitting.' So that's what it comes down to, and ultimately the reward. Yes, I want to win this race, and I want a watch, but I'll take hearing that any day."
There were positives from a pace standpoint too, particularly during Long's and Pumpelly's stints in the car. Long often ran triple stints and turned in some of the race's fastest laps. From 30th place, after Long's first unscheduled pit stop, the car climbed to as high as 14th.
"If people didn't notice what Park Place Motorsports is yet, they're going to," said Long, Porsche's only American factory driver. "We have to look at what we did, and not what could have been. Getting to the finish for CTF and the NF Heroes was one of our two objectives, but for the other one, it was not our day.
"When the sun was out and everyone had to make their tires live, no one would deny we were as good as anybody," Long added. "I can't say 'the best' because I didn't see everyone's lap times, but I know we were close to the guys who battled at the end. We had a little more grip on the forward drive, and that's a testament to John Horton and the engineering side."
There were many 'firsts' this race for the No. 73. It marked Lindsey and Hart's first Rolex 24 start, the first for the new Park Place Motorsports team and first for PPM in partnership with the Children's Tumor Foundation and Racing4Research. From that standpoint, the race was a success.
"It was certainly a new experience for us," Lindsey said. "It's a new team in name, but with a lot of experience. Luckily we had that, because we had a lot of bad things happen. But like our NF Heroes, we can't give up, and we can't lose hope. We went on and fought really hard. We have always shown our speed but we didn't have the finish we wanted."
Park Place Motorsports' second car, the No. 72 Park Place Motorsports/Vess Energy Services Porsche GT3, driven by Mike Vess, JF Dumoulin, Grant Phipps, Chuck Cole and Mike Skeen, also features the CTF logo and recorded a top-15 finish, 14th place in the 34-car entry. The pair of CTF/R4R GT3s crossed the finish line in tandem for what appeared to be the only staged photo finish of the race.
About Children's Tumor Foundation/Racing4Research: Developed by the Children's Tumor Foundation, the Racing4Research (R4R) program utilizes competitive, professional auto racing as a vehicle to increase awareness of neurofibromatosis and raise funds for research through corporate sponsorship, personal donations, and individual fundraising by NF Heroes: children and adults from around the country who live with neurofibromatosis. NF affects one in every 3,000 children, more than cystic fibrosis, Duchenne muscular dystrophy and Huntington's disease combined, and can lead to a wide variety of complications, including blindness, bone abnormalities, cancer, deafness, disfigurement, learning disabilities and excruciating and disabling pain. The Racing4Research program offers children and families living with the disorder a uniquely empowering weekend, and has raised over $2 million dollars since its inception six years ago. Donations can be made at www.racing4research.org.

Eau Claire, WI 54702-4004
Winterim Classes Offered
At UW-Eau Claire
(715) 836-4741
(715) 836-2900
MAILED: Oct. 15, 1999
EAU CLAIRE Art, biology, psychology, nursing and accounting are among the course topics that will be offered this January during the University of Wisconsin-Eau Claire's Winterim.
Approximately 45 courses will be available during the three-week Winterim session that runs Jan. 3-21, with most Winterim classes meeting every weekday for three hours.
"I think the number and variety of courses will appeal to current UW-Eau Claire students as well as members of the community who may be interested in taking a class," said Jan Morse, administrative officer for academic affairs. "We're pleased that every year the level of interest on the part of students and faculty increases."
The three-week Winterim course offerings allow current students to make the most of their winter breaks, Morse said. The additional credits earned can help students stay on track or get a step ahead on completing their degrees, she said.
"Also, because it's an intensive three weeks, it allows students to really immerse themselves in their discipline and get an experience they might not normally get when taking a class for the traditional 16 weeks," Morse said.
Those interested in enrolling in Winterim can do so up until the day that classes begin, Morse said. However, classes with low enrollments will be canceled so it's best if students register early, she said.
Currently enrolled students can register Oct. 18-28, and special students including those not currently enrolled at UW-Eau Claire can begin registering Oct. 29.
Information about course offerings is on UW-Eau Claire's Web site, www.uwec.edu, under Admission and Registration and on the Blugold System. For more information, call the Registration Office at (715) 836-2425.

Announcing the second Kansas City Team Challenge\n
Hos ting rights will flip flop from East to West each year. The "Host" team g ets 2 rounds (24 points worth of matches) on the course of their captains choice. The other round (8 points worth of matches) is played on the oppos ing teams turf. 2012 version was slightly different\, but allowed a first Host to be determined for this year. By virtue of their win in 2012\, th e East side will be the host team for 2013.\n
June 1st a nd 2nd
Teams of 16 (+2 alternate) players from KS. an d MO. each to compete in match play of three formats (alternate shot doubl es\, best shot doubles and singles). Each match will be worth one point. E ast Side can retain the Eagle trophy with 16 points or more. The West side has to get 16.5 points or more to win the trophy.
Wyc o on KS side- afternoon of Saturday the 1st. exact time TBD\, for the alte rnate shot doubles matches.
Cliff Drive on MO side\, Sunday the 2nd for the remaining matches.
MO – East Si de – Ryan Keck
KS – West Side – Tracy Walker
To b e determined! Possibly a combination of spots obtained via qualifying or captains picks. I'm leaving it up to the Captain of each side to determin e how to build their team. I think we should stick with the 2 Women\, 4 Ma sters (min.) and 10 Open players as required composition of each team.
$25. Unless you already have an official team jersey for your side\, in which case it is just $10. $10 to support tree planting at KC area courses.
I'll provide more details as Ryan and I determin e how we're going to form our teams.\n

STILLMAN VALLEY (WIFR) -- Meridian Schools have chosen Jim Brown to step in as interim superintendent, after both Dr. Robert Moreland and his assistant superintendent Tom Gaudreau stepped down last month.
Brown officially began his duties as interim superintendent today. He toured each of the schools, including Meridian Junior High School. Brown is no stranger to the position. He retired as the Superintendent of District 170 in Dixon five years ago.
You may recall, the Meridian School District faces a $2 million budget deficit, which Brown says is his main priority.

These nocturnal birds roost in trees or in thorny shrubs until dusk, when it is feeding time. Outside the breeding season, males and females often roost close to one another or in small groups. When night comes, the birds fly to a lookout point, swooping down to the ground when they spot their prey. White-faced scops owls often sing at dusk and before dawn.
Like other small owls, these birds primarily eat insects, like moths, crickets, beetles, scorpions, and spiders. They also hunt small birds and reptiles, as well as rodents and shrews. They swallow their prey whole, and regurgitate pellets at the roost.
White-faced scops owls are territorial, and can be aggressive when outsiders intrude near their nests. At the start of courtship, males are very vocal, singing from various perches in their territories or at potential nesting sites. During the courtship period, a pair often duets, answering one another with songs and chirruping calls. The mated pairs make their nests in tree hollows and crevices, or reuse old stick nests built by larger birds in trees or bushes. Pairs may use their nest site for several years.
A female normally lays one clutch of two to three eggs. While she incubates the eggs over a period of about one month, her mate will deliver food to her in his bill. The chicks' feathers grow in by 27 days of age and they can fly well by 32 days. Both parents continue to care for the young for at least 2 weeks after they fledge.
Aardvark, colobus monkeys, duikers, African eagle-owls, white-throated bee-eater, black and white casqued hornbill
White-faced scops owl are fairly common but thinly distributed in many parts of their range. They are not considered threatened. Pesticide use and habitat loss do affect their survival.
WCS is helping to manage and create protected areas throughout the bird's African habitat. WCS conservationists also work with local communities to find sustainable alternative livelihoods to logging trees where unique animals like the scops owl live.
