Kayla Rodriguez
September 16, 2013
Rodriguez was outstanding for the Lady Falcons over the past week. The junior midfielder tallied an assist in a road victory over a tough Georgia College team on Friday night and rebounded with an outstanding effort against #22 Queens on Sunday. Rodriguez dished an assist on Pfeiffer's second goal, a perfect cross to teammate Brae Buster that gave Pfeiffer a 2-0 lead. The nationally ranked Royals scored twice in just over five minutes to tie the game, but Rodriguez was determined to get the victory. In the 88th minute, she took the ball from midfield down the right wing and lobbed a perfect pass through the box to Aaliyah Jackson who recorded the game-winner.

TAHOE CITY, Calif. - When the Tahoe City Golf Course was purchased earlier this year, the funding partners agreed to form a committee to oversee the property and guide a public process regarding its future use.
That group, called the Tahoe City Golf Course Oversight Committee, will meet for the first time from 1-3 p.m. Wednesday, Nov. 7, in the Tahoe City Public Utility District Board Room on Fairway Drive.
According to the Memorandum of Understanding that came with the golf course deal, the committee is composed of representatives from each of the funding agencies: Placer County (1 person), TCPUD (2 people), Truckee Tahoe Airport District (1 person) and the North Lake Tahoe Resort Association (3 people).
According to previous reports, the public partners finalized the deal earlier this year, purchasing the property from the Bechdolt family for about $4.7 million. Below are the approximate contributions to the purchase from each entity:
NLTRA: $2.495 million (from TOT revenue)
TCPUD: $1.405 million
Airport: $500,000
Placer County: $300,00 ($100,000 in Park Dedication Fees; the rest from the Wetland/Open Space Fund).
At next Wednesday's meeting, the group will review the MOU, hear various reports and discuss options for a 2013 public planning process addressing each agency's objectives, according to a press release Thursday from the PUD. For a copy of the agenda, visit www.tahoecitypud.com.

Got my book free. Looking forward to reading it.ReplyDelete
I'm checking with Amazon about the possibility of extending the next free period outside the United States. I know other authors have been pushing Amazon on this, but I'm not sure how much progress they've made. Tracy WhittingtonReplyDelete
The idea of "claiming" your past, as in the title of Tracy's book, is incredibly appealing to me. It's the most honest, brave, and wholesome approach to all parts of our personal and family past, whether good or bad or indifferent. Whether we claim the past or not, it will be within us even if we're not conscious of its presence. But taking a conscious and deliberate approach to incorporating the past is generally a healthy step. It can be the most relaxing choice.ReplyDelete
When Faulkner said the past "isn't even past," I think he wanted us to recognize that truth. Tracy Whittington's book sounds interesting and well done. Thanks!

Renowned New York Times columnist Paul Krugman recently contended that "Patients are not Consumers." Because the nature of the doctor-patient relationship, he says, we can't treat healthcare like just another business transaction. But the truth is that patients do choose their doctors the same way they choose other services and expect the same levels of responsiveness. Why else would Walmart be in the healthcare business?
Physicians can't build a bond that promotes ideal care if they don't attract and retain patients in the first place. Technology is often blamed for coming between physicians and patients. But telehealth (health services delivered by phone or online) can strengthen the bond with patients, improve outcomes and increase patient and physician satisfaction. It may even attract new patients.
According to a a survey by Intuit Health, "The convenience of anytime, anywhere access is so important that almost half [of the patients surveyed] would consider switching doctors for a practice that offered the ability to communicate and complete important health care tasks online." Even President Obama is onboard with telehealth, mentioning it in his 2011 State of the Union Address.
Physicians and patients are very familiar with using the Internet, email, texting, instant messaging and video conferencing. Teleheath solutions that have been reviewed for HIPAA and meaningful use requirements meet the security and interoperability healthcare providers need, so why aren't more doctors communicating with their patients this way? Unfortunately, many insurance companies don't reimburse physicians unless they physically meet with the patient, and doctors can't afford to provide uncompensated care.
"Doctors have been obligated not to converse with patients," says Nathanial Findlay, CEO of Hello Health, which develops Web-based patient communication, practice management and EHR solutions. "They are paid on volume, not quality, so they have to make a patient come in to read lab results to them. Doctors' costs are increasing and reimbursements aren't. Something has to give. Telehealth provides a mechanism for better communication. It frees the doctor and the patient to have a 21st century relationship."
Patients pay a modest monthly fee to use the Hello Health's online services, which are designed for one- to five-member physician practices. This offsets out-of-pocket expenses for the practice. Findlay says this model is very successful for physicians who operate on a direct-pay basis, particularly in specialties such as internal medicine, primary care, pediatrics and psychiatry.
American Well, which provides an online care suite, is one telehealth service making inroads with insurers. The company has agreements with a number of major carriers to provide telehealth services for which physicians are reimbursed. "Insurance companies are willing to shift care to more appropriate cost centers. ER and doctor's office visits are costly. Rendering services at home saves money," notes Roy Schoenberg, MD, president and CEO of American Well. "It's another tier of care. Obviously, there are times when telehealth is not appropriate, but 50-60% of the time an office visit is spent talking and reviewing records, and telehealth is perfectly appropriate for that."
One prominent national health plan opened it up its American Well services to non-members on a fee-for-service basis. "It gives patients the convenience of getting any physician from your living room at a price point consumers will accept," Schoenberg points out. "A patient will pay $45 out of pocket to get in right now." Historically focused on large carriers and delivery networks, American Well recently announced a version of the platform suitable for smaller physician practices.
Some, like Krugman, might ask if such a model is impersonal and unprofessional. Getting a quick email or text from a doctor is more personal than requiring a formal appointment for the simplest communication. And we are accustomed to paying professionals for their time. A lawyer, for instance, gets paid for every minute s/he spends providing expertise on the phone or via email.
"At the end of the day doctors want to see fewer patients, increase quality for the patients they see and make more money," says Findlay. "This technology will help them do that." Because these services are Web-based, doctors and patients can access them from virtually anywhere, giving physicians the freedom to work when and where they want.
Reduced costs and greater flexibility are especially important for practices transitioning to concierge care or an accountable care organization (ACO). In concierge care, physicians charge a limited number of patients a set fee in addition to insurance coverage in exchange for guaranteed doctor availability. Telehealth can replace some consultative office visits, making it easier for physicians to meet those obligations.
ACOs are compensated based on a combination of improving outcomes without increasing costs. "The recent HHS [Department of Health and Human Services] documentation to certify ACOs repeatedly mentions that part of the parameter is adoption of technology like telehealth," notes Schoenberg.
"An ACO takes on risk for its own patients," he adds. "If you have a 72-year-old diabetic patient who is not balanced, you need to follow up. Maybe even weekly. Patient compliance and expense will both be problems. A doctor or nurse can meet with the patient weekly via video conference. It may be only five minutes, but the relationship with the patient is significantly enhanced."
Patients also appreciate the flexibility telehealth provides. Have you ever tried to get a mildly confused 80+ year old woman with advanced osteoporosis to the doctor in a snowstorm and wait with her in a waiting room? As someone who has, I know patients' families will be happy to facilitate (and pay for) a telehealth visit if it reduces the number of times they need to take half a day off work to do that.
"There are so many end use cases," says Schoenberg. "Patients may have chronic conditions that make coming into the office a barrier. Parents of young kids want to know if they should burn the rest of their night in the ER. Patients with high deductibles need to know if they really need an expensive physician or ER visit."
Telehealth could potentially reduce hospital readmissions. Physicians or hospitals can set up online care clinics that allow them to check in with the patient and reiterate/clarify discharge instructions to prevent complications. "If they show up in ER, it's usually expensive, late from a treatment perspective and listed as a readmission," Schoenberg points out.
Findlay and Schoenberg agree that biometric monitoring, such as vital signs and blood glucose, is the next evolution for products like theirs. "We're building hooks right now to support wireless monitoring," reports Findlay. "The doctor will have a dashboard view and see when something is going wrong. This makes telehealth very relevant for improving patient care. Five to ten years out, there will be machine learning capability and auto-decision support."

North Olympic Peninsula Primary Election Voter Guide is available

Most Popular this week
2nd UPDATE — Fugitive captured on Port Angeles' west side after many Clallam residents issued electronic lock-up warning
6th UPDATE — Port Angeles smashes Bar Harbor, Maine — and now faces Chattanooga, Tenn. in championship for 'Best Town Ever' of 2015
Forks passes resolution calling for Olympic National Park to minimize West End damage from Highway 101 work
Not everyone in Jefferson and Clallam counties is voting in the primary. For example, the entire West End of Clallam County is getting a pass this time because the 2013 off-year races already have only two or fewer candidates.
However, there are important primaries in Port Townsend, Sequim, Port Angeles and some fire districts that cover unincorporated areas.
For example, two seats on the Port Townsend City Council, primary elections for commissioner in the ports of Port Angeles and Port Townsend, and a three-person race for a Port Angeles School District board seat are among the decisions voters in those jurisdictions must make.
And that's where the Peninsula Daily News' Primary Election Voter Guide comes in.
The 16-page guide features candidates' profiles and responses to questions in a Q&A format. There's also an article on the library bond issue in Port Townsend.
Since the deadline for returning ballots isn't until 8 p.m. Aug. 6, we urge you to research the candidates and issues in the Voter Guide, which first appear with the current Friday/Saturday editions of the Peninsula Daily News.
It's published as a public service and, as always, contains no political advertising.
The Voter Guide is posted online on this website (click on the "flying eagle" button on the homepage; Adobe Flash is required), and a limited number of free "hard" copies will be available at courthouses, city halls, senior centers and other public contact points in Port Townsend, Sequim and Port Angeles between now and the primary election ballot deadline.

Jonny Wilkinson kicked Toulon to a 15-12 victory over Clermont to earn his team a place in the Top 14 final.
The former England flyhalf's five penalties were enough to win Sunday's semi-final. The French club final will be staged at Stade de France on Saturday.
Morgan Parra kicked all of Clermont's points but one of his penalty attempts fell short. It is the second successive year where Clermont have lost in the semi-finals.

Congratulations to Steve Lekson!
Lekson is the first archaeologist to receive the Distinguished Explorer Award by the Roy Chapman Andrews Society.
A professor and curator of anthropology at the University of Colorado, Dr. Leckson has been discovering and digging ancient sites for nearly 40 years. Before moving to the University of Colorado, he served as President and CEO of the Crow Canyon Archaeological Center in Cortez, Colorado, and as an archaeologist with museums in Arizona and New Mexico. His explorations have been supported by the National Science Foundation, National Geographic Society, and National Park Service.
His most recent excavations have been at Black Mountain pueblo, a huge ruin in the bleak Chihuahua Desert of southern New Mexico. The site may be a "missing link" between the famous Mimbres and Casas Grandes cultures of the Southwest.

Protein Shake Mix
ChocoRite Protein Shake Mix is a premium Easy-mixing shake mix designed to help serious dieters lose weight fast. ChocoRite protein shakes provide a high 24 grams of the highest quality protein (Whey Protein Isolate - 90% pure) in every shake. It helps flush the fat out through the inclusion of 5g quality fiber. ChocoRite's fat source is superior as well. It is comprised of medium chain triglycerides (MCT's), which new science has shown to increase energy and actually burn fat. These fat calories burn as fuel instead of being stored as fat as other fat sources tend to do.
ChocoRite Protein Shake Mix also contains a superior natural prebiotic fiber called NutraFlora. NutraFlora feeds the good bacteria in the stomach, small intestine and colon. Because it is a group of short chain fructoligosaccharides, it digests much slower eliminating gas and discomfort associated with other fiber sources.
- Improves mineral absorption including Calcium
- Promotes a healthy digestive System
- Increases the level of good bacteria
- Strengthens the immune system

We care about our customers, our employees, our investors, and we seek to be an outstanding corporate citizen in the communities where we live and provide service. This corporate citizenship is evident in our charitable giving, as well as in the local sponsorships we've created as part of our community relations/ commercial partnership efforts.

One way that RCN fulfills its commitment to corporate citizenship is through corporate philanthropy, supporting a broad range of nonprofit organizations and their initiatives. These include arts and culture, health and human services, education, environmental and civic—and help enhance the quality of life of individuals living in our Boston, Chicago, Eastern Pennsylvania, New York and Washington, D.C. markets.

In many cases, we are able to promote the goals of these organizations through in-kind cable TV advertising space donations that reach our expansive subscriber base. In addition, our market teams support the local chapters of a number of charities through monetary and in-kind donations.
The 1in5 Initiative
RCN fully supports this important initiative, whose goal of is to drive greater public awareness of dyslexia, which impacts 1 in 5 studentsand to empower those kids and parents to act and feel supported in a dynamic online destination where people can find resources, share their stories, and become part of a growing community of support.
United Way of America
RCN Telecom Services, LLC renewed its commitment to the United Way in 2009, giving $3 Million of donated cable television time. It's also continuing an annual company-wide employee-giving campaign with corporate matching contributions.
Alzheimer's Association
In 2009, RCN donated more than $210,000 in cable television time to the Alzheimer's Association, National Capital Area Chapter. The company also partnered with the Chapter on community events including its National Memory Walk in Washington, D.C.

Hey Huskies!
Congratulations on deciding to attend UWB. My name is Ladan Ansari and I am from Iran. I will be a fourth year student at UWB this upcoming year majoring in Community Psychology.
When I'm not in school I spend my time working and volunteering to give back to the community. Currently I am involved in the Community Based Learning Research program (CBLR) where I get to apply what I learn in the classroom to the community. In adition, I enjoy playing soccer with the other Orientation Leaders and cannot wait for the new Student Activity Center to open up. I enjoy traveling and exploring different cultures especially different foods. I love healthy eating and cooking and I will always come up with weird remedies for everything. In my spare time I enjoy reading, cooking, decorating, and hanging out with my family. New challenges excite me and that's why I really enjoy extreme sports.
The two things I love most about UWB are the diverse campus and my professors. My advice to all the new, transfer and exchange students is to use this time to explore and network. Remember you are all here for a reason so make great memories. Get out of your comfort zone and meet new people, join new clubs and organizations and just have fun. I am excited to meet the incoming students and to make this a great year.

Prairie Paws Animal Shelter has a very special chihuahua, probably between 4-6 months old. Unfortunately, his front paws are deformed. This does not appear to stop him from being a normal puppy; however, with this handicap we are looking for a very special home for him, one that is calm and probably without children. Little Foot does well with other animals, but is very shy and skittish. He can be scared around men, but once he warms up to you, he is a lover. He is available and ready for a new life and family, if anyone has room in your heart to let Little Foot in.
Call the Animal Shelter at 972-237-8575 or visit 2222. Warrior Trail.
Hours: open 10 a.m.-6 p.m. Tuesday-Friday and open 10 a.m.-5 p.m. Saturdays (closed noon-1 p.m. for lunch on Saturday). The shelter is closed Sunday-Monday.

12 Ways Tech Companies Boost Creativity
Gaga for innovationSagmeister & Walsh gives employees a whole year off Google offers "20 percent time"Additionally, Google offers mind-enriching @Google TalksHubSpot lets employees sit in with other teams3M offers 15 percent timeMicrosoft uses Bill Gates' office for inspirationThe tech giant also hosts science fairsIBM holds brainstorming sessions called "Jams" Asana caters in gourmet lunches and chocolateEventbrite has its own Zen roomYammer conducts hack days in costumeGitHub crowns a monthly King or Queen of Developers
Tech companies have come up with a lot of great tricks to boost creativity.
From having Lady Gaga talk to employees to giving staff year-long sabbaticals, these ideas often lead to a company's most successful product.
They also lead to better morale.
Here are some of the ways they're helping employees crank up the creativity.
This story originally appeared on Business Insider.
Every seven years, designer Stefan Sagmeister closes his New York studio, Sagmeister & Walsh, for a year-long sabbatical.
He showed off the innovated products that resulted from a refreshed workforce in a 2009 Ted Talk.
(His staff also poses naked for official photos, but that's another story.)
Google famously gives its engineers time to work on creative projects. Up to 20 percent of their workweek can go toward them.
The most famous Google service to come out of a "20 percent project," as Google calls it, is Gmail.
Google also invites all kinds of famous people onto its campus to give lectures. The company calls this program @Google Talks and the guests range from celebrities like Lady Gaga and Tina Fey to authors, activists, and politicians.
The goal of these talks is to "keep our brains learning, growing and thinking," says Google. Watch the talks on YouTube.
Like Google, HubSpot is famous for its culture.
The company brings in speakers and hosts classes. As part of its "uncomfortable level of transparency," HubSpot lets employees join another team to learn their part of the business, HubSpot cofounder, CTO, Dharmesh Shah, told Business Insider.
Engineers can learn more about marketing, for instance, or vice versa.
3M's "15 percent time" actually predates Google's "20 percent time" by a few decades.
Back in 1974, one 3M scientist named Art Fry used his 15 percent time to put adhesive onto the back of a piece of paper.
That project went on to become the company's most iconic product -- the Post-it.
Microsoft has converted Bill Gates' old office into a space called "The Garage" that's filled with every techno-toy imaginable. Employees can go there to tinker on various projects.
Sometimes, whole product teams get a "Garage Week" where they can innovate in The Garage.
Microsoft also hosts "Science Fairs" twice a year so employees can show off what they've been working on in their spare time. The fairs are often held in the Microsoft Garage.
The whole company attends -- even senior vice presidents -- and each product is judged. The winner gets to set off a homemade volcano named Mount St. Awesome.
IBM holds "Jams," or massive brainstorming events on various topics.
The most famous jam is probably the "Innovation Jam," held in 2006. It was also the largest online brainstorming session IBM has ever held.
The company brought together more than 150,000 people from 104 countries and 67 companies, who came up with 10 new ideas. IBM invested $100 million into these ideas, which included smart healthcare payment systems and 3D internet.
Asana, the project management app co-founded by ex-Facebookers Dustin Moskowitz and Justin Rosenstein, relies on food to keep employees creative.
Asana's office has a commercial kitchen staffed with two full-time chefs who plan healthy, gourmet, organic meals that promote productivity.
If employees still need a boost, they can chow down on chocolate from the wall-o-gourmet chocolate (or they can do a shot of Scotch from a collection kept above the candy.)
Recent research shows that dim lighting boosts creativity. San Francisco-based ticket-sale company Eventbrite has taken that information to heart.
Its office includes a Zen Room, with low-lights and no noise. It's a place where employees can meditate, think, or nap on the comfy couch.
Lots of tech companies have "hack days." That's where developers gather to create new products or features, often working all night to write the code that brings their ideas to life.
Yammer's hack day lasts a full 24-hours and employees dress up in wild costumes. The whole company joins in.
GitHub is a San Francisco-based company that makes a tool for hosting other people's software projects. Each month, it crowns a King or Queen of Developers and that person runs the help desk for its customers, CEO Tom Preston-Werner told Business Insider.
By putting a top developer on the desk each month, engineers can identify problems and learn how customers actually use their technology. That leads to fast fixes and all sorts of new features.

The Maldives Game Fishing Association (MGFA) has today announced entries are open for the second Maldives Game Fishing Challenge from 23 to 26 November. Set in the pristine waters of North and South Male', and Vaavu atolls, this year's event is bound to enthrall all levels of angler over three action-packed days of fishing for species such as Wahoo, Marlin, Sailfish, and Big Eye and Dog Tooth Tuna.
Organizers are expecting even better fishing conditions than last year, with the event to be held later in the month, closer to the full moon. In its first year, the event also received praise from the IGFA as an excellent example of a well-conducted tournament, no small feat for the nascent MGFA organization.
Tim Simpson from Australia's Blue Water magazine last year wrote "This is a small event with a big future." MGFA Vice President, Mr Ahmed Nazeer, agrees: "The competition is not only a great opportunity for our international anglers to mix with Maldivians: it is a wonderful avenue for The Maldives to showcase its breath-taking marine environment and spectacular game fishing to the angling world. Importantly, it also promotes sustainable fishing through its tag-and-release emphasis."
A new US$200 per angler entry price includes three full days of fishing, a 2012 MGFC tee-shirt, IGFA and MGFA 12 months membership, a ticket to welcome drinks and the closing presentation dinner to be held at Major Sponsor Bandos Island Resort. Anglers may enter individually or in teams of up to four competitors.
Many anglers will sail away with fantastic prizes from sponsors including cash, or equipment prizes from MGFC sponsors Shimano Australia, Pakula Lures and Sabre Singapore. Accommodation prizes will also be awarded to some successful anglers. Categories include individual and team winners and runners up, heaviest fish by species and tag-and-release.
Entries are open now. Don't miss your chance to visit one of the most unique and picture-perfect places on earth, while soaking up some serious angling. This is truly an event that will stay hooked in your memory. Enter now at www.mgfa.org.mv

This is a very versatile stencil and I use it all of the time. Using portions of this one can give a great abstract line design.
CW's stencils are durable, wash well and are easy to use for kids or adults. Everyone loves the designs when I use my mists.
I LOVE Crafter's Workshop templates, especially those that are "reversed". This allows the imagine to be 'stamped' on your project. I enjoy inking and using texture paste so these are perfect.
Love Crafter's Stencils

DURHAM — After playing 32 innings in roughly 31 hours, North Carolina's players may not have been completely rested.
Taylore Cherry sure was.
The first-time starter worked five solid innings to help the Tar Heels beat Virginia Tech 4-1 on Sunday in the Atlantic Coast Conference championship game.
Cherry (1-0), a 6-foot-8, 270-pound freshman, pitched just 3 1-3 innings all season and never worked more than one inning in any of his five previous appearances.
But he gave up just five hits to the tournament's hottest-hitting team while working into the sixth inning — and coach Mike Fox called those accomplishments "the story" of the game.
"He's worked hard, and he's prepared," Fox said. "You never know when your moment is going to be."
Skye Bolt was credited with two RBIs for top-seeded North Carolina, which earned its sixth ACC tournament title but just their second since 1990.
North Carolina claimed its 19th straight victory against the mistake-prone Hokies (38-20) and denied them their first conference title since they won the Atlantic-10 tournament in 2000. Virginia Tech made four errors and they all led directly to UNC runs.
"I thought it was unfortunate that we didn't play a clean baseball game," Virginia Tech coach Pete Hughes said. "We always want to play good defense and throw a lot of strikes, and we just didn't play good defense today."
The Tar Heels finished up with an exhausting 4-0 record this week in Durham, and the middle two wins lasted a combined 32 innings.
They needed 14 innings to beat Clemson on Friday night and 18 to defeat rival N.C. State in a game that ended just before 2 a.m. Sunday — roughly 11 hours before the title game.
Fox, who said he canceled the pregame meal and instead encouraged his players to sleep in, insisted he didn't notice many tired Tar Heels.
"Youth — it's a great thing," he quipped.
But ACC player of the year Colin Moran had a slightly different perspective.
"When you're playing for a championship, it's not very hard to get up for it," he said. "But I'd be lying if I said we weren't a little bit tired."
The Hokies, who entered hitting .310 as a team while going 3-0 in their four-team pool, loaded the bases in both the fifth and sixth innings but got only one run out of it: Tyler Horan scored on Chad Morgan's double-play groundout off freshman reliever Trevor Kelley in the sixth to pull Virginia Tech to 2-1.

September 14, 2013
HAZARD—Summer is over and students at most points on the education spectrum are getting settled into new classes. Some students and instructors at the UK Center of Excellence in Rural Health (CERH) are not only getting used to new classes, but brand new programs as well.
Dr. Fran Feltner, director of the CERH, said this was the first semester for a new bachelor of arts in social work (BASW) program at the center.
"The recent addition of the BASW is a shining example of many months of planning and coordination with faculty and leadership at the UK College of Social Work who have supported our efforts to meet local job market needs for this career," Feltner said.
Feltner explained that previous to this semester, students in the area interested in a degree in social work who did not want to leave the area could only receive their associates' degree at Hazard Community and Technical College (HCTC) and would have to go elsewhere for a bachelors' program. Now, since the CERH also offers a masters' degree in social work, students can receive all of their education without ever having to leave the area.
Evelyn Wood, director of public relations for HCTC, said students and staff at the college are excited for the new possibilities this opens up for the area.
"We just keep expanding the number of offerings that we're having for students so they can get their education here and not leave home," Wood said.
The CERH, which opened in 1990, held a celebration for students on Thursday to welcome them back to classes, giving students from HCTC and UK free T-shirts and a free lunch. Feltner addressed the students during the celebration.
"We do have many health disparities in the counties that we live in and one of the great things that we can do here to decrease our health disparities is to have students like you come through the health care field and be able to go out and provide services," she said. "It's very important that you get a good degree, that you learn and that you learn about your community, that you have community involvement, and be able to make a difference and maybe move the needle a little bit away from us being the worst in diabetes, the worst in heart disease."
Feltner said the school has about 125 students currently enrolled and that around 80-90 percent of students that graduate from the CERH go on to work in rural areas like those they grew up in, many even staying in the area to work.
"As you graduate as UK students here at the center, you'll be among 600 students to do so. So, you join the ranks of many, many successful people that are out in the field as doctors of physical therapy, as social workers," Feltner said.
Feltner also said plans are underway for a bachelor of health sciences in human health sciences to begin accepting students in 2014, though those plans are not set in stone.
"We are very proud of these outcomes and we want students to understand a high quality education is attainable at the local level. The same curriculums, requirements, and accreditation standards are followed here just as they are on (the) main campus," Feltner said.

Meet your driver for an airport transfer with a private vehicle.
What's happening in the streets of Yangon when most people are still sleeping? You're going to find out! An early wake-up call is planned for 6:00 AM and the guide will be expecting you in the lobby of your hotel at 6:30 AM. Start your morning with a visit to the fish market on the Yangon River. Next, continue to a vegetable market which is open 24 hours a day and try famous Burmese breakfast called Mohinga (a mild fish soup with noodles and crackers). By that time the monks are walking through the streets of Yangon to collect their alms, you will wait for them to pass and donate some food to them. Continue to the fruit and vegetable market before heading back to your hotel around 9:30 AM to have your full western breakfast.
Yangon is a sprawling city with a relatively small downtown area including several markets, colonial buildings, the Yangon River, and a very green area with tree-lined streets and several lakes. During this full day tour you will be shown the different faces of Yangon from the landmarks to the hidden markets that have only seen a few westerners. During the day you will visit the Sule Pagoda, colonial downtown, the harbor, The Strand, and one of the colorful local markets. The reclining Buddha will be visited just before taking a tasteful lunch of typical dishes from tribes from all over the country like Kachin, Shan, and Rakhine. A local market will lead you to a small station where you will take the famous circular train that will bring you right behind Bogyoke Aung San market before heading back to your hotel. The tour includes a drink at the Strand Hotel and lunch at a local restaurant.
Fly from Yangon to Mandalay. Flight time is approximately 1 hour and 15 minutes.
Meet your driver for a pier transfer with a private vehicle.
Welcome aboard!Take some time to get settled in to your stateroom, and to explore the length of your ship. You'll set sail shortly.
Enjoy a group excursion at Mingun, site of a 12-foot high bronze bell and the massive ruins of Pathodawgyi (the "unfinished pagoda"), originally intended to be 499 feet high. Although only a third of it was ever completed, it remains the world's largest brick pagoda. You will also see Myatheindan Pagoda and its many images from Buddhist mythology. Tonight, meet your fellow travelers at a Welcome Dinner.
Port charges are included in your itinerary pricing.
Your full-day group tour includes many of Mandalay's most iconic sights, including the bronze Mahamuni Buddha, covered by the faithful with a thick layer of gold leaf. Visit the workshops of skilled craftsmen making thin sheets of gold, marble carvings and tapestries, and stop at Kuthodaw Pagoda (said to contain the world's largest book, Buddhist scriptures inscribed on 729 marble slabs), Mandalay Hill, and Shwenandaw monastery, an architectural masterpiece filled with wood carvings. Later, take an excursion to see the world's longest teak bridge, the U Bein Bridge in nearby Amarapura.
The ship stops today at the former royal capital of Sagaing, famous for its hundreds of monasteries and its tranquil atmosphere. Visit a silversmith's workshop, Soonuponyashin Pagoda, Kaunghmudaw Pagoda and Uminthonese Pagoda, which contains 43 colorful Buddhist statues.
Continue on to Inwa (Ava), the capital of the Burmese kingdom for more than four centuries, where you will see the sights in a horse-drawn cart: Mahaaungmyebonzan monastery; the "leaning tower of Inwa," ruins of a 90-foot-high watch tower; and Bargaya monastery, built entirely of teak.
Arrive in Yandabo, a peaceful village known for its finely crafted terracotta wares. See a pottery-making demonstration by local artisans as well as glimpses of typical village life. Later, the AmaPura's Sun Deck offers the perfect vantage point for your first glimpse of the plain of Bagan (Pagan), one of the world's most awe-inspiring archeological sites.
On your initial group sightseeing foray in Bagan, visit Ananda Temple, a well-preserved masterpiece known as the "Westminster Abbey of Burma," and Shwezigon Pagoda, the holiest site in Bagan.
After a stop at the Nyaungoo Market, join a group excursion to Mt. Popa, legendary home of animist nat spirits. Later, enjoy a guided tour of the Bagan Archeological Zone, filled with thousands of stupas, temples and pagodas. Tour some of the most distinctive pagodas as well as Gubyaukgyi Temple, a cave temple with frescoes depicting scenes of Buddha's life. Visit a lacquerware workshop and a nearby village before returning to the ship for dinner.
Enjoy one final sunrise over Bagan before departing on a group excursion up Thantkyi Mountain to visit Thantkyi Pagoda.
Upon arrival to Salay, a group excursion takes you to Yoke-Sone-Kyaung, built in 1882 and the region's oldest surviving wooden monastery, famous for its wood carvings and collection of religious artifacts. You will also see a splendid colonial-era house and the Man Pagoda, which contains the largest lacquer Buddha in Myanmar.
Further downstream today, the ship will stop at Magwe (Magway). Walk up to the ornate hilltop Myathalun Pagoda, constructed with thousands of solid gold bricks and housing numerous shrines devoted to nats (Buddhist spirits).
Your day begins in Minhla, site of a great battle during the Second Anglo-Burmese War. Take a small local boat to visit Gwechaung Fort and Minhla Fort, built by Italian engineers in 1860 to keep British forces out of Burma.
Thayetmyo is a pleasant town that once guarded the border between Royal Burma and British Burma after the second Anglo-Burmese War of 1855. It has a number of well-preserved colonial-style houses and buildings dating from the mid-1800s, including a covered market. A guided group excursion will bring you through the city's sites.
After arriving at Pyay, head ashore for a walking tour of this former capital that once served as an important junction between Lower and Upper Burma. Pyay is home to more than 80 gilded pagodas, including Phayamar Pagoda and Shwesandaw Pagoda, one the country's most revered religious sites. You will also take an excursion to the ancient Pyu capital of Sri Ksetra.
This morning you'll disembark from your ship, and bid farewell to your fellow cruisemates.
Transfer from Pyay to Yangon with a private vehicle and English speaking guide. The transfer is approximately 4.5 hours.

Questions & Answers
Low Price Guarantee
The EXO-R2000 was developed by Scorpion's team of engineers in conjunction with Scorpion's stable of sponsored riders in the premier MotoGP™ race circuit for real race feedback and direction over the last 2 years. It is Scorpion's most dedicated foray to date in developing a world class race helmet designed for the most prestigious racing circuits in the world, yet built for the everyday rider.
Wrap a tape measure horizontally around your forehead. Select the helmet that is the closest fit to that size. A helmet should fit snug on your head. If it moves while wearing, it is too large. If it is painful to wear, it is too small.
The long awaited R2000 race ready full face helmet features a new super
lightweight, high tech TCT shell, a new optically correct Everclear faceshield
with an additional smoke shield included, and Scorpion's Airfit pump to fit
system for a laser precise fit. Scorpion engineers worked tirelessly for two
years in cooperation with MotoGp riders to develop an aerodynamic, feature
packed helmet that weighs just over three lbs.
The R-2000 is available in three different graphics; the Circuit, the Dispatch,
and the Ion. The circuit graphic is available in three color ways; red, white,
and black, this flat black and silver, and a blue, white and black option. This
graphic has a very classic factory race team style, but with the linework detail
associated with modern helmet graphic technology. This graphic will work great
with dark colored jackets and apparel with subtle accent color…The next graphic
in the lineup is the Dispatch. This graphic works exceptionally well with the
lines of the R2000. The Dispatch graphic is available in five color ways, a flat
black and titanium; red, white, and black; bright pink, titanium and black; this
unique blue, titanium and black; and a dark blue, white and black version. The
colors in these graphics are really unique. These helmet graphics are definitely
going to work best with all black or white apparel, save maybe the red colorway…
Lastly, we have the wild looking Ion graphic. There is a lot going on in this
graphic. You have a sweeping moon burst sort of design here on the side with
color fading from front to back. These large, sweeping shapes seem to sit on top
of a backround design that consists of very fine lines that are travelling in
different directions until they meet to form grids of lines that form different
shapes. This graphic is available in three color ways; this blue, silver, and
white; red, silver, and white; and a gray scale version. These graphics are
loud, but they are comprised of mostly primary colors so matching them up to
your favorite Scorpion apparel will be easy.

It would be nice if magnetstreet would tweek the approved calendars before production and then submit for a final approval. The system does not allow certain changes for a clearer picture and therefore uploads may not look as pleasing as you'd like. But, other than that pretty big issue, the calendars look great!

MINNEAPOLIS – Aug. 9, 2012 – Saturday is 8/11 and CenterPoint Energy wants to remind customers to call 811 prior to any digging project. One free call to 811 before digging can prevent injuries, property damage, service disruption and possibly costly fines for damaged infrastructure.
"Please call or click before you dig to notify affected utilities of your intent to dig," said Kris Tande, supervisor of Damage Prevention for CenterPoint Energy. "Each year, more than 150,000 underground utility lines are struck in the United States and 38 percent of all excavation damages result from not calling before digging."
When homeowners call 811, they connect to Gopher State One Call, who then notifies the appropriate utility companies of the homeowner's intent to dig. Professional locators are sent to the requested digging site to mark the approximate locations of underground lines with flags, spray paint or both. The flags and spray paint notify workers of the underground gas lines and to dig carefully.
In addition to calling 811, homeowners and professional excavators in Minnesota have the option to visit the Gopher State One Call website to submit dig information or by using the Gopher State smart phone app for convenience.
The depth of utility lines varies and there may be multiple utility lines in a common area. So, whether it's a small project like planting trees or shrubs or hiring a professional for an outdoor project, smart digging means calling 811 before each job.
Since the 811 "Call Before You Dig" campaign was created in 2004, there has been roughly a 40 percent reduction in excavation damages. For more information, visit call811.com.
CenterPoint Energy, Inc., headquartered in Houston, Texas, is a domestic energy delivery company that includes electric transmission and distribution, natural gas distribution, competitive natural gas sales and services, interstate pipelines and field services operations. The company serves more than five million metered customers primarily in Arkansas, Louisiana, Minnesota, Mississippi, Oklahoma and Texas. Assets total more than $22 billion. With about 8,800 employees, CenterPoint Energy and its predecessor companies have been in business for more than 135 years. In Minnesota, CenterPoint Energy is the state's largest natural gas distribution utility, serving about 800,000 customers in 260 communities. For more information, visit CenterPointEnergy.com.

Arlington basketball: Two teams, one goal
Their combined success isn't the only thing the Eagles boys and girls basketball teams have in common
Two teams who have followed a similar route. Two teams that many doubted would get there. Two teams that have left everything on the court. And two coaches, who don't just coach at the same school, but have a lifelong friendship.
The Arlington boys and girls basketball teams got together after their respective practices last Wednesday to take a combined team photo -- fitting for these two teams who were both just days away from playing in the district championship game, something that had never been done before at Arlington in the same season.
"It's really cool that we are both having this kind of success this season," Arlington girls head coach Joe Marsh said. "I think going into the season we both thought that we were going to be pretty good, but I don't know that we both figured we would be here at the end. That's the cool thing about it."
Adding to the similarities between the two teams was the storyline of both championship games. The boys had to face undefeated Jackson, the one team they had played that they failed to beat at least once. The girls went up against one-loss Lynnwood, the only team on their schedule that they had failed to beat.
Unfortunately for Arlington, the results of the championship games were the same as well. The boys fell to Jackson 58-42 and the girls lost to Lynnwood 61-49.
But the results of those two games in no way take away from what these two teams have accomplished, or, more importantly, what they are trying to accomplish in the next two weeks.
Marsh said the girls haven't been to a district championship game in 12 seasons and boys coach Nick Brown couldn't recall if the boys have ever been to a district final. In order for both teams to have the success they have had this season the culture of the basketball program has had to change over the years.
"One of my goals getting the head coaching job last year was to just build the culture," Marsh said. "Coming out of the boys program we do things a particular way and there is no doubt I brought a lot of that with me."
Marsh said everything starts with hard work and that builds the foundation. He also believes that both programs have great kids, making them easier to coach.
One of Marsh's players, senior Krista Showalter, said having a close knit group of players is part of the change in culture as well.
"Since my freshman year this is the closest team that I have ever been on," Showalter said. "We don't fight. This is the closest group of girls I have ever known. Since my freshman year the seriousness level has gone up and this is the most focused that we have ever been as a team and you can tell based on how far we have gotten this year."
Of course talent is a must, something that both teams have had this season. Both teams have leaders in Terry Dawn for the boys and Lindsay Brown for the girls. But it is the surrounding cast for both teams that have helped them each to a league championship and a run to the district finals.
"It's not about one person," Marsh said. "I've got a really good player in Lindsay Brown, but it's not about her. It's something bigger than yourself and being a part of this thing that is bigger than yourself and buying into it, which is not always easy for kids to do."
For Brown and Dawn they answered that challenge before this season began.
"I think Terry and I both talked about this at the end of the year last year because I think we tried to force everything through him," Nick Brown said. "I think it wasn't a fun experience for anybody. It just wasn't as much fun here."
Many of Arlington players have been playing together well before their high-school years. That experience has been invaluable to the coaches.
"The kids have had some success in the younger years," Nick Brown said. "They know how to win. We have more talent right now than sometimes we have had in the past and it's really been nice. It makes us (the coaches) look a little smarter."
The history between the coaches started when Marsh was an assistant under Nick Brown. He worked in that role for five years before taking over the girls program last season.
"Joe, I consider him to be one of my best friends," Nick Brown said. "He's in my top three for sure. I feel a lot of pride just watching him -- because I taught him everything he knows. It's fun rooting for them, rooting for him and rooting for his girls and seeing similarities in our programs because we have some carry over in our programs, stuff I've stolen from him and stuff he's stolen from me."
The friendship between Brown and Marsh have carried over to the players on the teams, who support each other whenever they get the chance.
"I don't know that there has ever been this kind of relationship between the boys and the girls program," Marsh said. "That's the thing that has been really nice. Nick and I are close friends and that makes the programs close. Since I've been in this building it's never been that way. It's always been the girls over here and the boys over there and there is never really been this kind of connection that there is now."
Does that relate to on-court success?
"It doesn't hurt it," Marsh said. "I know that. The good thing is we are fans of each other. That helps. I'm not sure exactly how that translates to success, but I think there is something there."
Dawn said that support is not just a school thing, but a community thing.
"Everyone is in it for everyone else and we are all supportive of each other," Dawn said. "Our band is with us and we support the band. The girls team comes to our games and we go to the girls games, so we are all just one big happy family I guess you could say. This community really supports everyone."
For Brown and Marsh, their players have taken them on a ride that they will always remember -- and it isn't over yet.
"It has been a little surreal this season to be honest with you," Marsh said. "The success we had from the beginning of the season, if you would have told me we were going to start the season 14-0 I would have said you were crazy. But we both had that success early on and we kept looking each other think when is this going to end. And it didn't. The kids just managed to keep going and keep going and keep going."
