At their regular meeting on Aug. 25, the Durham Board of Selectmen created a task force to study the town's herbicide use.
Called the Roadside Maintenance Task Force, the group was formed after residents complained to the BOS about the spraying of chemical weed-killer on roads and curbs.
The town has the right to spray onto private property within 10 feet of the roads. In response to concerns expressed at the Aug. 11 BOS meeting, Public Works director Kurt Bober said that his department has been spraying onto the roads and curbs and not the 10 foot right of way.
The chemical used was a commercially available herbicide, although the town also has access to herbicides not publicly available. At that meeting, the town placed a moratorium on herbicide use to study the issue.
The task force's charge reads, "The task force shall research safe, efficient, and cost-effective methods of maintaining roadways, roadsides, and town property that minimizes and/or eliminates the use of hazardous chemicals."
That wording drew comment.
"It almost seems like the charge is the decision," selectman Steve Levy said. "I'm not opposed to the goal, but I'm just not sure it's a good charge in that it's already drawing a conclusion."
First Selectman Laura Francis said that the task force would research and recommend, while the BOS would decide.
During the public comment portion of the meeting, Roger Kleeman of Durham said that the word hazardous in the charge was detrimental because even safe chemicals could be considered hazardous if used improperly. "I think you're putting something in there that's going to cause more trouble than it's worth," Kleeman said.
At the beginning of the meeting, Rick Parmelee said of the moratorium, "I think it was rather drastic action to put a stop to it." Parmelee asked why should power company and town employees be subjected to poison ivy on the job.
"So far Public Works has not reported that there are any real problematic areas," Francis responded. "If there are, we can selectively re-address that."
Tina Hurlbert, Claudia White, Joanne Nytch, Mark Shadle, and Mike Bisceglia were appointed to the task force, which led selectman John Szewcyzk to question if there would be a diversity of opinion in the group.
The timing of the task force's reporting, no later than Nov. 10 according to its charge, will allow Durham to make changes in the town budget if different methods have financial implications.

Andy Murray may have booked his place in the fourth round of the US Open but there are still question marks about his fitness, says Greg Rusedski.
The 2012 Flushing Meadows champion produced some superb tennis in the opening two sets of his contest with Andrey Kuznetsov but appeared to struggle physically during the third before bouncing back to secure a 6-1 7-5 4-6 6-2 victory.
After the contest Murray said he felt fine during the third set, but Rusedski has concerns – and says the Brit must step up a level when he meets Jo-Wilfried Tsonga in the next round.
On Murray's claims he felt ok, Sky Sports pundit Rusedski said: "It didn't look like that in the third set. It looked a little concerning because he looked a little lethargic out there, he was clutching at his quads and his knee.
"For me there's still little question marks physically. But the good news is he found a way to get the job done. When he plays Tsonga it will be interesting to see what sort of frame of mind he puts himself into. If he has those lapses against Tsonga he's going to end up second best.
"Tsonga has been playing very well. He won in Toronto where he beat Roger Federer, Novak Djokovic and Murray, so he's in good shape."
Boris Becker agreed there were some worrying signs from Murray but is confident – with the right recovery and preparation - he will be ready for his Tsonga test.
"The only person that truly knows what's happening inside of Andy Murray's body is Andy Murray himself," he said.
"Of course, he's not going to say to us 'I'm struggling physically' but he had moments when he looked a little off and grabbed his thigh and lower back. But maybe that's just the way he deals with a difficult situation.
"He played well and moved well in the fourth and the match wasn't too long; 2 hours 35 minutes isn't really testing your body much. If he has a nice evening off, a soft practice tomorrow [Sunday] he can get ready for a tough match against Tsonga."
Focusing on Murray's tennis, Annabel Croft was pleased to see much of his game in good order.
While 2009 Wimbledon junior champion Kuznetsov had some success, Croft says Murray's tennis – built from a strong defence – was simply too good.
"Andy has so many varieties of shots he can bring onto court," said the former British number one.
"He always says, when you look at other sports – and he studies all other sports – the basis of a lot of them is defensive play and then you build around that. And that's how he plays his tennis.
"He's got such a strong base of defence but he can then step it up when he wants to towards the end of the match."


text: Met this fella on the way back from getting my ticket. It was blowing a gale on Avenue de 9 juli at the time, so you can excuse him having his scarf around his face. He might be as mad as a box of frogs but he´s the only football fan I have seen so far. And so I reckon he deserves the title of ´Mister Copa America´. |

Meet the run-ons: QB Jack Seymour
By Josh Moyer
Every weekday, as part of an ongoing series, NittanyNation will take a closer look at a Penn State walk-on.
Jack Seymour
,ĀIndianapolisĀ(Ind.) Park Tudor, 6-foot-2, 201 pounds.
Picked Penn State over:
FBS offers from Western Michigan and Ball-State; FCS offer from Southern Illinois.
Why he picked PSU:
Despite garnering offers elsewhere, PSU boasted the better academic reputation, and that initially caught Seymour's eye. When he visited for "Run-On Day," he liked the campus and stadium a lot -- and he really clicked with Bill O'Brien and quarterbacks coach Charlie Fisher. With the sanctions, he felt like he could make a difference as a walk-on, so that combination led him to choose PSU.
State of the position:
Steven Bench
is the only returning scholarship quarterback, but there's still some competition for the starting job. Juco QB
Tyler Ferguson
and incoming freshman
Christian Hackenberg
will try to unseat Bench, while early enrollees (and walk-ons)
DJ Crook
and Austin Whipple will provide a little more depth.
With just 28 players on his high school team and a small offensive line, Seymour found himself often running for his life. With that, however, he caught teams' eyes by being able to throw well on the run and by keeping his eyes downfield in the face of pressure. He's athletic and can make plays if something breaks down.
He admitted he might have some happy feet in the pocket now and needs to learn to trust his line and not scramble right away. He also tends to leave weight on his back foot when he throws.
Potential impact:
PSU didn't need another walk-on QB, but it was pretty difficult to turn down Seymour. He flew under the FBS radar because he played on a bad team, but he still impressed enough to garner several scholarships. He could be one of the bigger surprises of this run-on class and eventually might find himself as Hackenberg's backup.
"I can compete, and that's what I'm eager for. To see what a great guy O'Brien was -- and I can't say enough good things about him -- it just really is the perfect fit. He said he wanted me, and to know I could earn my spot, wherever that may be, and that's big."
Getting to know Seymour:
Favorite movie is "Stepbrothers" ("I love Will Ferrell and all his movies.") ... Favorite TV show is "The Walking Dead" and "Duck Dynasty" ... Favorite food is ribeye with lots of hot sauce and A-1 ... Favorite band/musician is Florida Georgia Line and Jason Aldean ... Dream vacation is a cruise to Europe, visiting southern France, Monaco and Italy.

PNC Park
Attendance: 11,373
Pittsburgh, PA (Sports Network) - Three consecutive RBI doubles in the eighth inning helped the Pittsburgh Pirates claim a 4-1 victory over the Los Angeles Dodgers in the opener of a four-game set from PNC Park.
Neil Walker drove home the winning run with a double down the right field line before Lyle Overbay and Ryan Doumit followed with doubles of their own.
Jose Veras (1-1) threw a scoreless eighth to earn the win for the Pirates, who have won three straight for the first time since last September.
The Dodgers were able to place runners on first and second with one out in the top of the ninth, but Joel Hanrahan was able to hold on for his 11th save in as many tries.
Chad Billingsley (2-2) took the loss for the Dodgers after allowing three runs on seven hits in seven-plus innings of work.
With runs and baserunners at a premium, Matt Kemp was hit by a Veras offering to start the eighth. Juan Uribe followed with a line drive to left, which Jose Tabata clearly trapped in an effort to make the catch. Uribe, however, was called out and Tabata was able to double Kemp off first, ending a potential Dodgers threat.
While taking the field for the bottom of the eight, Uribe was ejected by third base umpire Mike DiMuro for arguing the call. Manager Don Mattingly, in coming to his players defense, was also tossed from the game.
"I think my only frustration, more than anything else, was when Mike [DiMuro] says that he's not 100 percent sure and I ask him to get help, ask him to check, somebody else might have seen it, and he wouldn't do that," Mattingly calmly explained after the game.
Uribe was responsible for Los Angeles' only RBI, as he squeezed a two-out single between short and third in the top of the first.
Pittsburgh starter Jeff Karstens settled down, however, allowing just one run and seven hits in 5 2/3 innings.
Garrett Jones knotted the game at one apiece in the bottom of the third, scoring Ronny Cedeno with a two-out single up the middle.
After the Pirates' outburst in the eighth, the Dodgers eventually placed runners on the corners in the top of the ninth. Aaron Miles then ripped a grounder towards third, but Pedro Alvarez dove to his right to snag the ball, then sprung to his feet and fired to first, ending the game in spectacular fashion.
"We're playing good baseball," said Walker, "and it's not just one or two guys offensively getting it done, it's not just one or two guys going out there and throwing shutouts. This is a total team effort."

Nymox Pharmaceutical Corp (NASDAQ:NYMX)

What's the point of coming back and giving Nymox one last kick in the teeth? I've already made my point about the futility of investing in this pathetic scam several times, and I was vindicated when the company finally reported failure of the phase III trials of NX-1207 for BPH earlier this month. Despite being absolutely right about the outcome of the trials, my put options expired worthless in August as Nymox management sat on the results of the trials, which they almost certainly had in hand by the end of June. Of course, that didn't stop secretive CEO Paul Averback from selling large chunks of Nymox stock over 6 as recently as October. Is there such thing as a class action suit for options holders?
The reason I'm back is to drive home a point about trading biopharma stocks without genuine due diligence, which involves a hefty dose of skepticism. People tend to remember the huge winners like Pharmacyclics and Regeneron and forget about the multitudes of failures, many of which were never serious developmental ventures. The sector is filled with parasites who leech off the good faith engendered by the success stories. Sometimes these parasites are hard to identify, and sometimes they are easy. They don't come much easier than Nymox. The number of red flags here was epic - the company's refusal to divulge the composition or mechanism of NX-1207, the mysterious origin of their funding from a shell corporation in Panama, their ridiculously low cash utilization despite their claim to be conducting several late stage clinical trials, the minimalist nature of their quarterly PR's, and of course the obvious fact that they were sitting on data many months after the conclusion of phase III trials. Nevertheless, Nymox stock improbably maintained a share price over 5 as those months slipped by and it became even more obvious to objective observers that the trials had failed.
If you were long Nymox when they finally released the negative data and the stock dropped 80%, despite all of these red flags and the clear expert commentary predicting failure, you need to do one of two things:
1. Sell all your individual equities, buy SPY, and forget the password to your brokerage account. You are wasting time and money attempting to trade stocks. Save your time and energy for fantasy football and the Drudge Report.
2. Wipe your slate clean and start over. Admit you know nothing. Get off the YMB and Stocktwits. Learn the red flags, and learn who the smart skeptics are on the web and Twitter. Let others convince you not to buy a stock, but never let anyone else convince you to buy a stock. Develop your own process for deciding what stocks are worth buying. If your performance fails to improve, go to choice 1.
By the way, retail traders weren't the only ones caught in the Nymox blow-up. A list of supposed professionals who owned a piece of the scam can be found here http://whalewisdom.com/stock/nymx . Mercifully it's a short list but it might be worth a quick look. If you have any money in the hands of any organization that owned more than a nominal amount of Nymox stock when it dumped, you might want to rethink that association.
Phase 3 clinical trials are complete on an injection treatment for BPH, an illness affecting most men over age 50. The treatment does not require taking a med every day, can be performed outpatient in minutes by a urologist. The effects are measurable within a few weeks, so it seems likely they will be able to apply for approval soon, but I am not sure how long it will be.
in difficulty now
So far their N prostate drug has outstanding results as it works thru stage 3 tests. This could be a game changer for men!
How do I say this placidly? I'm expecting the micro-cap pharmy's price to erect. Along with a series of other drugs, the flagship of the corporation, Nx1207, a "proprietary" treatment for BPH, is not allergenic with intraprostatic injections, according to Nymox, "positive immunogenicity testing of NX-1207 is an important step in the Company's drug development program." I worry that there could be political ramifications of the drug post release as it will crush tabular competition. Possible measures to even the playing field for alternatives could be an imposed price floor. Otherwise this one's gonna literally rock the baby boat. It's a spit ball.
I'm confident enough to actually risk this one with real dough. Got ~$500 in at $5.22/share betting this one sees a pretty feline. *Growl*
New approved drug for BPH - This thing is going to take off.
The NYMOX drug for BPH, NX1207, is head and shoulders above all the existing drugs for this ailment, which affects tens of millions of middle age and elderly men. Not only is NX1207 so much more effective than Flomax and Avodart is decreasing BPH, but it also doesn't have the sexual side effects. And instead of taking hose drugs every day forever, NX1207 is an injection administered in a urologist's office only once every several years.
This drug has tremendous potential. To become a blockbuster, it doesn't have to be recognized as a great drug by consumers, but rather by urologists, who will be well aware of how much better it is than the alternative oral drugs.
will explode when BPH treatment nears approval
nx 1207 drug a guaranteed winner
There are far too many of these types of pharmaceutical companies out there...plenty of promise, huge valuation and failure to deliver. Nymox currently has one...yes..only one drug currently in late stage trials to treat enlarging prostates. The company has managed just 450k in sales for the entire year yet is valued at over 183 million dollars. Losses are increasing, and based on my estimates, they dont even have enough cash to get out of Q1 2008! Over 400 times price to sales, 58 times book, and increasing losses..where's the buy button?!! If you look historically at the long-term chart, this falls mercilessly for 2-3 months after every large rise.
Non estrogenic treatment for benign proatatic hyperplasia with proven efficacy ih reducing symptoms such as frepuent voiding, urgency, nocturia, dripping etc. No significant side effects and a 30% reduction in prostate size in late trials. Tremendous market potential.
Nymox Pharmaceutical Corporation (Nymox) is a biopharmaceutical company that owns and operates business through two subsidiaries: Nymox Corporation, a wholly owned subsidiary and Serex, Inc., a majority owned subsidiary. The company has three products in its portfolio; AlzheimAlert meant to measure the level of a brain protein, NicAlert to determine smoking status and TobacAlert determination of a person's level of exposure to tobacco products including second hand smoke.
The company is pursuing research and development pipeline of drug and diagnostic products in development for the treatment of such conditions and diseases as enlarged prostate (benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH)), Alzheimer's disease (AD), E. coli O157:H7 contamination of food and drink products, and bacterial infections and for the diagnosis of AD and other indications.
Nymox's financial statements indicate that it is still very much in its development phase. For the fiscal 2006 its revenues were mere $0.44 million whereas it reported net loss of $4.89 million which was 63% more than the previous year.
The driver for this stock would be its Phase II product candidate NX-1207 which is meant to treat BPH. The stocked reacted positively on the recent announcement of positive test data.
The company's valuation looks expensive especially if one takes into account its $ 44 million deficit and that it is going to take few years for it to generate positive free cash flows. Thus in today's environment where risk aversion is the norm this stock doesn't make the grade. Hence its better to be prudent while thinking of investing in the stock.
very interesting pipeline
Nymox has intellectual patented technology worldwide with statin gene marker for alzheimers disease.
Their drug for shrinking prostate gland that has enlarged has no known high risk side effects. Their research on eliminating the ecoli bacteria in food is moving forward . I bleive this company is positioned for solid growth thru revenues and earnings generated by these proprietory techniques and the royalties generated by these products :leased: to other major pharmaceutical companies should enhance earnings and price..
New prostrate drug could be big. Also has very strong Alzheimers drug

All Critics (15) | Fresh (12) | Rotten (3) | DVD (2)
[It] isn't just the most atmospheric and scary Chucky film, it's one of the most confident and successful American horror movies of the 2010s.
By grounding the film in a haunted house-style horror movie and making Chucky a creepy doll again, while still maintaining the warped humor that the first three films had, it may deliver the best film in the franchise.
There's something to be said for going back to old-school scares once the self-mocking silliness dries up.
The Child's Play franchise...makes a surprising, successful reversal with Curse Of Chucky, the franchise's serious-minded, at times even dour fifth sequel.
Serves as a really good and entertaining book end for the end of the series...
After nine years, Chucky is finally back in his proper element, and that's reason enough for any horror fan to rejoice.
Curse Of Chucky is a vicious return to form for one of horror's most legendary icons, terrorizing victims in the purest, darkest form of criminal insanity.
Despite the return of Brad Douriff as the voice of Chucky and writer-director Don Mancini, this installment lacks the humor or thrills of the films that went before.
There's nothing here to indicate that the current iteration of Chucky contains enough life to stalk though anything more than a string of middling direct-to-video sequels.
Curse can't shake its groggy DTV presentation, feeling like a cheap experiment to see if the faithful will follow the series now that theatrical demand has passed.
Curse of Chucky is nicely restrained, eking out suspense and building characters before all voodoo hell breaks loose.
A morbidly witty schlocker.
the film, unfolding for the most part in a veritable doll's house, is certainly a stylishly twisted unpeeling of its antagonist's strange history.
This may be nothing more than a low-budget horror sequel, yet it is one that is much better than the straight-to-video label would lead you to believe.
'Curse of Chucky' [is] alarmingly good...Chucky fans should rejoice as [it] is clearly going to re-ignite the franchise for years to come. Chucky has never looked better...
Audience Reviews for Curse of Chucky
Awesome. Makes no sense at the end, but couldn't care less. Was delighted with the cameos. Have watched and loved these movies for years.
MoreSuper Reviewer
Chucky is back for one last round, and boy is it ever a good one. "Curse of Chucky" follows an entirely new cast of people as Chucky begins to slowly pick off family members. At first it seems like a well produced average horror film, but deep down, it is holding onto your interest until the last 20 minutes where it will completely reverse what your thoughts have been and it will really surprise you. With a great cinematographer to go with it, some great direction, and better acting than most of the series has ever had, this sixth instalment, which is arguably the best in the series, has everything Chucky fans around the world could ever want. I had a blast with this film from start to finish, and I highly recommend it not only to Chucky fans, but fas of the horror genre in general. Many twists and turns make this film the only one in the series I use the word "Great!"

After a nine-year dormancy, the 'Child's Play' franchise has resurfaced for a direct-to-video entry. If the release platform and the fact that it is the sixth installment cause trepidation within the fanbase, it is for good reason because 'Curse of Chucky' is belabored, rehashed and overreaching when attempting to connect these luridly gothic events to the first film. At one point, Chucky pours a hefty morsel of rat poison in one of six bowls of chili. It is intended to be hair-raisingly suspenseful because neither the audience nor the characters are aware of who is eating the terminal MacGuffin. However it is futile since the victim is predictably the most expendable character. Despite allegations that 'Curse' would avoid the campiness of the two previous chapters, Chucky (with a fatuous Asian makeover) is spouting opprobriously unfunny catchphrases again ("Women. Can't live with 'em. Period."). A tawdry post-credit scene completely contradicts the scene beforehand in terms of continuity. Don Mancini is inordinately transfixed with close-ups of Chucky's dilating pupils and a lesbian twist midway is completely arbitrary other than to make the viewers despise the characters even more. Overall, 'Curse of Chucky' is a prostrate, gratuitously gory abomination for the Charles Lee Ray loyalists.

Dark and atmospheric, Curse of Chucky is a return to form for the Child's Play series. A semi-reboot, the plot seemingly ignores some parts of the last few films but sticks to the overall continuity. Chucky reemerges once again and stalks a family with which he has a score to settle. It's pretty rote, tried-and-true horror stuff; a creepy old rundown house, heavy storms, people going missing/being murdered one by one, etc., etc. And while it's standard fare for this type of film, it works well enough in setting a mood. Additionally, the kill scenes are fairly creative and suspenseful. However, the script is poorly paced and doesn't flesh out the characters (which makes it hard for the audience to invest in them). Curse of Chucky has problems, but on the whole it delivers enough frights and scares to satisfy horror fans.

Expect Facebook to Lose a Ton of Money on Instagram
NEW YORK ( TheStreet) -- I tend to agree with the way Mark Zuckerberg handles most things at Facebook (FB - Get Report).
But I'm beginning to wonder what in the world he is doing with Instagram. Maybe he's not doing anything. The other day a friend suggested that because it's newly acquired, CEO Kevin Systrom might still be calling the shots at the sociophoto network. (When somebody at CNBC starts using that new word, remember where you heard it first.)
I scoff at the notion of Zuckerberg not taking immediate control of Instagram, but it's apparently not all that far-fetched. I understand that's the way things rolled in the early stages of the Google (GOOG)/ YouTube integration.
If Zuckerberg is saying, we're not going to interfere, keep doing what you're doing, he better channel Steve Jobs and rethink the strategy.
In the span of just over a week, Instagram or Facebook or some combination of the two made a pair of bonehead moves. I discuss the first one -- taking full Instagram functionality away from Twitter -- in Facebook Acting Like a Twit On Instagram. TheStreet's Chris Ciaccia nicely covers the most recent bungle -- Instagram's terms-of-use snafu -- in Facebook's Instagram Catches Hell From Users on Privacy Changes. Let's take this slowly . . . Facebook made a massive mistake making such a large bet on and apparently having so much confidence in Instagram. Here's where I think Zuckerberg -- whether he's calling the shots or not (and he must have at least some broad oversight) -- is getting it wrong: He's putting Instagram in the same league as Facebook. Dissing Twitter was a bold, but bad move. I explain why in the first of the two above-linked articles. And pulling a fast one on privacy doesn't fly when you're not special. Facebook can do this -- it has several times -- because it's Facebook. That's why the social network never missed a beat after the many times Zuckerberg played fast and loose with privacy. Facebook is sticky; it's addictive. Most of its users aren't going anywhere and, for every one that does leave, several others, pets and infants included, take that spot.Check Out Our Best Services for Investors

David Bazan: 13 October 2009 - Washington, DC
Bazan invites questions from the audience, and inevitably, one or two come from disappointed, even heartbroken fans who want to know for sure if Bazan's given up on God, or put another way, given up on them.

Cincinnati State Surge Athletics
Cincinnati State athletics provide opportunities for students to enhance their overall experience at the College by encouraging lifelong wellness, sportsmanship, and academics.
Cincinnati State currently fields teams in six sports: women's and men's basketball, women's and men's soccer, women's volleyball and golf. All six teams regularly compete under the rules and regulations of the National Junior College Athletic Association Region XII (Indiana, Michigan, and Ohio) and play a very competitive junior college schedule. After playing for the Surge, many student-athletes go on to play for four-year institutions.
The Cincinnati State Athletic Department is under the leadership of athletic director Tom Hathaway. Staff members include: Wil Cagle, women's soccer coach; Mike Combs, men's soccer coach and fitness center director; Kristy Parrill, women's volleyball coach; Sonya Beeler, women's basketball coach; Andre Tate, men's basketball coach; and Scott Webb, golf coach.
Surge Hoops Teams Nearing District Tournament Play
The Cincinnati State women's basketball team will host a district tournament game on Tuesday, while the result of Saturday's game will determine if the men's team will do so as well.
The Surge women's team will face Cuyahoga Community College on campus on Tuesday at 5:30 p.m. If the men's team wins at Owens on Saturday, it will claim the No. 1 seed and advance to the district tournament semifinals in Circleville, Ohio, on Friday. A loss in the regular-season finale means the Surge will be the No. 3 seed and host Columbus State on Tuesday at 7:30 p.m.
Cincinnati State beat Columbus State in both matchups this season, but the wins came by a total of four points. The Surge pulled out an 85-84 overtime victory at home in late January before an 84-81 decision on the road last week.
While the Cincinnati State women's team has one regular-season game remaining, a contest at conference-leader Owens on Saturday, it is locked into the No. 3 seed in the district tournament. Cuyahoga is the No. 6 seed.
The Surge (18-10, 9-4 OCCAC) topped Cuyahoga (7-15, 4-9 OCCAC) twice this season. After an 84-36 victory at home in mid January, the Surge claimed a 90-39 win on the road a month later.
With a victory Saturday, the men's team will face the winner of the Cuyahoga-Sinclair game on Friday at 6 p.m. on the campus of Ohio Christian University.
If the women's team tops Cuyahoga on Tuesday, it will take on Columbus State, the No. 2 seed, at 3 p.m. on Friday at Ohio Christian. Cincinnati State dropped both games to Columbus State this season, falling 64-63 as the host and 83-73 as the visitor.

2013-2014 Year in Review
The 2013-14 athletics year at Cincinnati State proved to be a season which boasted success in competition and in the classroom. Four of Cincinnati State's teams—men's soccer, women's basketball, men's basketball, and men's golf—advanced to the NJCAA national championships of their respective post-season tournaments. Women's soccer, which advanced to the regional final, narrowly missed becoming a fifth member of that elite group. Cincinnati State is one of only eleven NJCAA colleges to send teams to four national championships. Surge teams combined to capture two Ohio Community College Athletic Conference championships (men's basketball, men's soccer) and four district or regional titles. The teams combined for a record of 90-49-2, a .645 winning percentage. Three Cincinnati State student-athletes were selected as OCCAC most outstanding performers in their sports and a total of 20 received all-conference honors. The Surge also had 17 receive all-region honors and had seven NJCAA All-Americans—Liam Doyle (men's soccer), Julie Martin (women's soccer), Winston Grays (men's basketball), Phylicia Johnson (women's basketball), Matt Nickoson (golf), Taylor Suggs (golf) and Jeff Wray (golf). Doyle also earned Academic All-American honors as did Danielle Reifenberger (soccer), Austin Klueh (soccer), Tucker Beerman (soccer) and Ricky Dumont (golf). Academically, 39 Cincinnati State student-athletes—43 percent—were named Surge Scholar Athletes for the Fall Semester, having grade point averages of 3.0 or better while passing at least 12 semester hours. Seventeen had GPAs of 3.5 or better, qualifying for the college's Dean's List, and three posted perfect 4.0s. 22 of the program's 27 sophomore student-athletes have graduated after the Spring or will graduate at the conclusion of the Summer semester. 12 have already accepted offers to play at the NCAA Div. I level next season. 7 will play Div. II and others will make their decisions on where to play later on this summer. |
Men's soccer finished the season with an 18-2-2 record while claiming the OCCAC & Region XII titles. The women's basketball team upset 5th ranked Owens for their 3rd district title in 4 seasons. Andre Tate's Surge went on to win the district title and earned a 6th place finish at the NJCAA national tournament. The golf team captured the Region XII title and finished as NJCAA National Runners-Up. |
Cincinnati State's Tom Hathaway named OCCAC Athletic Director of the Year
Cincinnati State's Tom Hathaway has been named the 2013-14 Ohio Community College Athletic Conference (OCCAC) Athletic Director of the Year. Hathaway, in his second year at Cincinnati State, led the Surge athletic program to a very successful year. The men's soccer team, the men's and women's basketball teams, and the men's golf team all won district championships and advanced to the national tournament, while the department introduced women's volleyball as a sport. The women's soccer team also came within one win of a district championship, and the men's soccer and men's basketball teams each captured conference championships. Academically, Cincinnati State had six student-athletes receive academic honors from the NJCAA, the men's golf team was named an NJCAA All-Academic Team, and 20 student-athletes were named to the All-OCCAC Academic Team. Hathaway has compiled a wide array of experience during his three-plus decades in athletic administration. Much of that was accumulated during his 27 years as assistant athletic director at the University of Cincinnati where he was responsible for sports communications and served in a variety of administrative roles. After UC, Hathaway has served as athletic director at Miamisburg High School before taking over at Cincinnati State in May of 2012. While at Miamisburg, he supervised more than $1.2 million in improvement projects to the school's athletic facilities and developed a long-range plan for the development of sports programs and facilities. He also launched outreach efforts with area youth sports organizations and worked on a wellness coalition involving the school, the city of Miamisburg, township officials and employees of a nearby hospital. "Tom not only has the skills to manage Cincinnati State's sports programs, he also gets them the attention they deserve," said Cincinnati State President O'dell M. Owens. Cincinnati State competes in men's and women's basketball, men's and women's soccer, women's volleyball and golf. Over the past three years the golf team, the men's soccer team, and the men's and women's basketball teams have competed in National Junior College Athletic Association national championships. Hathaway, a graduate of the College of Wooster, launched his career as assistant commissioner of the small-college Ohio Athletic Conference. He was the 2009 recipient of the Ohio Interscholastic Athletic Administrators Association (OIAAA) Horizon Award and was recognized for 35 years of service in athletic administration by the National Interscholastic Athletic Administrators Association (NIAAA).He is the author of seven publications and two highlights videos that have received national awards. He also co-authored a book on the history of UC basketball. |
Cincinnati SportsMedicine partners with Cincinnati State
Cincinnati State and Cincinnati SportsMedicine and Orthopaedic Center have agreed to a partnership which will not only provide athletic training services for the Surge athletic teams but will benefit student and staff wellness. Under the arrangement, Cincinnati State student-athletes will have the medical services of Cincinnati SportsMedicine's nationally-known orthopaedic specialists along with its highly-qualified physical therapy resources for the immediate treatment and recovery from athletic injuries. Ryan Downing is the certified athletic trainer for the school. He will be covering all home events throughout the year and providing afternoon visits in the gymnasium athletic training room for any athlete, non-athlete, or faculty member needing his services. He can be reached at 513-515-3443 or firstname.lastname@example.com with any questions. Dr. Frank R. Noyes, chairman and medical director of CSMOC and an internationally recognized authority on the diagnosis and treatment of complex knee problems, will serve as the chief orthopaedic specialist for Cincinnati State athletics. "We're excited to be partnering with Cincinnati State during the upcoming school year," commented Dr. Noyes. "Our goal is to provide the best orthopaedic & sports medicine care to the student body and faculty. Our team of physicians, physical therapists, and athletic trainers are well respected in their professions and our team is here for you." Cincinnati Sports Medicine will make its services available to Cincinnati State's students, faculty and staff. Members of the Cincinnati State community can have their athletic-related injuries assessed on campus, with timely referrals to the Cincinnati SportsMedicine physicians when warranted. "Cincinnati SportsMedicine has an outstanding reputation for its advancements in the treatment and prevention of athletic injuries," stated Cincinnati State athletic director Tom Hathaway. "We are pleased to have their outstanding sports medicine services, and the support Dr. Noyes and their highly-regarded staff of physicians, for our student-athletes."

Theresa Check inducted into Cincinnati State Athletic Hall of Fame
Theresa Check, former athletic director and women's basketball coach at Cincinnati State, has been inducted into the school's Athletic Hall of Fame. The recognition took place at the annual athletic awards banquet on April 11.
Check compiled a 64-23 record in three seasons as head coach at Cincinnati State, directing the Surge to a pair of Ohio Community College Athletic Conference championships and an appearance in the National Junior College Athletic Association national tournament in 2011. She relinquished her coaching responsibilities following the 2010-11 season, but Cincinnati State Athletic Director said her efforts helped pave the way for the team's 2012 national tournament appearance. (The Cincinnati State women finished fourth in that event.)
During Check's tenure as Cincinnati State's athletic director, teams from the college made five NJCAA national tournament appearances in men's basketball, women's basketball, men's soccer and men's golf.
Check retired as athletic director in 2012, but continues to teach at Cincinnati State as an adjunct.
Prior to joining Cincinnati State, Check established herself as one of the top women's basketball coaches in Ohio. Her teams compiled more than 400 victories in 17 seasons as head women's basketball coach at Central State, earning Converse/NAIA Coach of the Year honors in 1993. She also served as athletic director there for 11 years. Under her leadership, football was reinstated and tennis, volleyball, baseball, softball and bowling were added.
Check is a member of the NAIA Hall of Fame and the Central State Hall of Fame.
Check is the third person to be enshrined in the Cincinnati State Athletic Hall of Fame. She joins John Hurley, former athletic director and men's basketball coach, and Omar Cummings, an All-American soccer player who is now playing at the professional level.
Cincinnati State athletics continue to build a winning tradition

Women's soccer finished 2010 ranked 13th nationally among all junior colleges and advanced to the NJCAA Regional Final in 2013. Volleyball, which was relaunched in 2013, is a program on the rise led by Head Coach Kristy Parrill.

Where to get great Pasta?

Alfredo, Ragu?., Where and what are there specialties? Happy Holidays!
I like Bel Paese in Hawthorne simply because the don't overcook their pasta (at least not as much as most places). I like their shrimp scampi and a side of spaghetti with garlic and oil (simple but good). Also Buon Amici in White Plains (right behind City Limits) has a good basic sauce.. Josephines up in Yorktown (rt. 202) also has good sauce (last time I tried it). Also I think Traditions 118 in Granite Springs has good brocollirabe and cavatelli.
re: GIOny
Not your average pasta dish, but La Cremaillere has one of the best appetizers on the planet, up there with the onion tart at Le Provencal -- their snail pasta dish in cream sauce. I'm SURE it has a better name than that, but it is -- and I hate this phrase -- to die for.
As to normal everyday gravy (red sauce for Sicilians) I am happy with Silvio's in Valhalla, La Manda in White Plains, T&R in PortChester, Rosie's in Bronxville, Il Forno in Somers, and even Villa Nova in Pelham.
The last heavenly carbonara I had was in NYC, and the place has closed.
The Northern Italian places usually annoy me with their pretension.

Customer Reviews Very dissapointed in the last upgradeIf u havent upgraded, dont! Why on earth did they cut down the amount of fruits you can plant?! Now the max food u can plant is 250 in 3hrs ( after u upgrade your lil farm to a bigger one)! I dont want to plant and harvest every 3 hrs!!!! After update large farms have 3 hr maxSmall farms are fine. Still rarely get a minion to banish. BoringI deleted this game the only reason I`m downloading it again is to get zoo bucks in tiny zoo! It`s just a repeat if tiny monsters with different creatures and concept only difference is tiny monsters wasn`t as expensive to clear items like this game Related - Games - Tiny Castle 1.0.1 More in Games - for Tiny Castle iPhoneMore by TinyCo, Inc. - for Tiny Castle app ioS
