Mons-Hainaut topped Paris Levellois 86-84 in overtime to claim a big road win in Group E of the EuroChallenge.
After a back-and-forth encounter, Mons-Hainaut scored the final four points of regulation to force the extra period and then made their hosts pay with a big finish.
Paris dominated the early proceedings, and led 40-27 midway through the second quarter when Sean May nailed a three-pointer.
But Mons-Hainaut responded with a 12-1 run to cut the gap to one at half-time following threes from Guy Muya and Joshua Bostic, and the pattern was set for a close second half.
Paris held the lead for much of the way, but never by more than a few points, and the 71-67 edge given to them by Maleye Ndoye's free throws with 2:18 left was not enough to finish off the visitors.
Jonathan Wallace got two back from the free throw line and then, after Brian Qvale got a big block to deny Jawad Williams a lay-up, Muya tied it with 18 seconds left.
Andrew Albicy had one more chance to win it for Paris in regulation but came up empty as the game went to overtime.
Again Paris started strong, quick baskets from May and Williams putting them up 75-71 before Mons-Hainaut came back.
The Belgians made their move with a 6-0 run turning a 78-76 deficit into a four-point lead with 14 seconds left.
May sliced that gap with a three-pointer but Bostic responded with two free throws and, after an Antoine Diot turnover, Monwell Randle added two more to make it 86-81 with five seconds left.Ndoye had a late three for Paris, but it was to no avail with time running out.
Quincy Taylor led Mons-Hainaut with 23 points and 11 rebounds while Qvale had 17 points and 10 boards. Bostic added 14 points, Muya 13 and Randle 10 with eight rebounds.
May continued his excellent form with 22 points for Paris, with Albicy adding 21, Williams 12 and Ndoye 10.
Paris guard Antoine Diot"We had the game between our hands in the first half. After, we played too relaxed and Mons stayed focused. They took the lead but at the end of the game, we had the chance to take it back. We did it in the French league this week-end but we can't do that every time. We need to act not always react !"
Christophe Denis, coach Paris Levallois"It's a good thing to have a good start but it's always better to have a strong finish. We must recognize that Mons did what they needed to do to win. They played a good game and we cannot say other things! They deserve the victory."
Mons-Hainaut head coach Yves Defraigne"We were on a three-game losing streak so we were unconfident at the begining but we're very proud of our game. It's one of the best teams in the competition and we did it. A good thing."
Mons player Quincy Taylor "We are very happy to win here in Paris. We won the game in defense and for our fans. They made a long trip for us and we wanted to show them that they're precious to us and to thank them with these victory."
Sean May

I don't know why, but almost all the pictures from my Paris-Lausanne culinary tour came out kinda goofy. Out-of-focus, askew, grainy, or there's odd pictures of sidewalks, one of me lounging in a bathrobe, guests eating and drinking (no one looks great when putting a forkful of food in their mouths so those pictures I'll keep to myself…and I hope they do likewise), lots of chocolates rolling off conveyor belts, and even those scrumptious, insanely good Swiss meringues with double-cream Gruyère tasted (a lot) better than they look here.
The week passed by as a whirlwind of tastes – we moved from one chocolate shop to the next in Paris – Fouquet, Jacques Genin, Patrick Roger, and Jean-Charles Rochoux. Then, when we hit Lausanne, we switched gears, focusing our attention on cheese, air-dried beef, and white wine.

Kidney cysts are pouches of fluid found on your kidneys, the Mayo Clinic states.
According to the Mayo Clinic, in most cases the cysts are noncancerous and don't cause issues. These are called simple kidney cysts. However, some cysts can signal more serious problems.
The Mayo Clinic states it's unclear what causes simple kidney cysts. They can appear on one or both kidneys. They are usually found during an imaging test for an unrelated condition.
Simple cysts usually don't require treatment.

Search Health Information
Cleft lip and cleft palate are birth abnormalities of the mouth and lip. These abnormalities affect about one in every 700 births and are more common among Asians and certain groups of American Indians than among Caucasians. They occur less frequently among African Americans. Cleft lip and cleft palate occur early in pregnancy when the sides of the lip and the roof of the mouth do not fuse together as they should. A child can have cleft lip, cleft palate, or both. Cleft lip and cleft palate together are more common in boys. It is also important to know that most babies born with a cleft are otherwise healthy with no other birth abnormalities.
Cleft lip and cleft palate may occur together in an infant, or separately. The degree of the abnormality of both cleft lip and cleft palate can vary greatly. The most common early problem associated with these abnormalities is feeding your baby.
The exact cause of cleft lip and cleft palate is not completely understood. Cleft lip and/or cleft palate are caused by multiple genes inherited from both parents, as well as environmental factors that scientists do not yet fully understand. When a combination of genes and environmental factors cause a condition, the inheritance is called "multifactorial" (many factors contribute to the cause). Because genes are involved, the chance for a cleft lip and/or cleft palate to happen again in a family is increased, depending on how many people in the family have a cleft lip and/or cleft palate. If parents without clefts have a baby with a cleft, the chance for them to have another baby with a cleft ranges from 2 to 8 percent. If a parent has a cleft, but no children have a cleft, the chance to have a baby with a cleft is 4 to 6 percent. If a parent and a child have a cleft, the chance is even greater for a future child to be born with a cleft. Genetic consultation is suggested.
The symptoms of these abnormalities are visible during the first examination by your infant's physician. Although the degree of the abnormality can vary, upon inspection of the mouth and lips, the abnormality can be noted, as there is an incomplete closure of either the lip, roof of the mouth, or both.
Beyond the cosmetic abnormality, there are other possible complications that may be associated with cleft lip and cleft palate, including the following:
The most immediate concern for a baby with cleft palate is good nutrition. Sucking for children with a cleft palate is difficult because of the poorly formed roof of the mouth. Children with just a cleft lip (without a cleft palate) do not routinely have feeding difficulties. The following are suggestions to help aid in the feeding of your infant:
In some cases, supplements may be added to breast milk or formula to help your infant meet his/her calorie needs. Consult your child's physician regarding other home devices (i.e., small paper cups) for feeding your child with a cleft palate.
There may be many people involved in management of a cleft abnormality for your child, because the skills of many different areas are needed to help with the problems that can occur with cleft abnormalities. The following are some of the members of the team:
Treatment for these abnormalities includes surgery and a complete team approach to help with the multiple complications that can occur. Specific treatment will be determined by your child's physician based on:
For most infants with cleft lip alone, the abnormality can be repaired within the first several months of life (usually when the baby is 10 to 12 pounds). This will be decided by your child's surgeon. The goal of this surgery is to fix the separation of the lip. Sometimes, a second operation is needed.
Cleft palate repairs are usually done between the ages of 9 to 18 months, but before the age of 2. This is a more complicated surgery and is done when the baby is bigger and better able to tolerate the surgery. The exact timing of the surgery will be decided by your child's physician. The goal of this surgery is to fix the roof of the mouth so that your child can eat and learn to talk normally. Sometimes, a second operation is needed.
Stitches will either dissolve on their own or will be removed in approximately five to seven days. Specific instructions will be given to you regarding how to feed your child after the surgery. The scar will gradually fade, but it will never completely disappear.
During the surgery, and for a short time after surgery, your child will have an intravenous catheter (IV) to provide fluids until he/she is able to drink by mouth. For a day or two, your child will feel mild pain, which can be relieved with a non-aspirin pain medication. A prescription medication may also be given for use at home.
Your child's upper lip and nose will have stitches where the cleft lip was repaired. It is normal to have swelling, bruising, and blood around these stitches.
Follow-up with your child's surgeon and the cleft team is very important. This will be discussed with you. Your child's physician will also be an important part of the child's overall health management after the surgery.

I was very pleased with the associates at the Uncle Bob's Self Storage in Feeding Hills. The storage unit was very well kept. The office was clean and bright and I was welcomed at the door like I was a family member. The manager Ginny went above and beyond to assist me and she answered all of my questions. Both Steve & Ginny have something you usually don't find these days. A caring attitude and a customer service ethic that is second to none! Would I recommend them to my friends and family? You bet I will! Thank you for such a pleasant experience and know that you will see me back the next time I am in need of your services. Kind Regards, KatherineKatherine from Southwick, MA

Bandanas have become a girl's best friend. However, that wasn't always the case. In the past, mostly males were seen wearing their favorite worn out bandanas. In the modern fashion era women have taken to bandanas and they have become a huge new trend. The bandana came to America via pirates. It soon became a useful fashion accessory. The British adopted the bandana, and Native Americans stated to even wear it around their necks. It did not reach the height of its popularity until Western movies popularized the stylish accessory. Nowadays, we carry bandanas in different colors and styles like camouflage, military, paisley, novelty, army, solid, and Rasta pattern. The bandana has come a long way, but it has only gotten better with age. Great taste in fashion does not have to cost an arm and a leg.

Foster parent guilty of abusing foster child
A Lafayette County jury took four hours to deliver a guilty verdict against a former Oxford man, charged with molesting his 16-year-old foster child.
David Campbell, 46, was originally charged with fondling by a person in a position of trust or authority and sexual battery by a person in a position of trust or authority. The jury acquitted Campbell on the sexual battery, but found him guilty on the fondling charge. (September 28, 2010, Page 1)

Executives Share Powerful MDM Customer Success Stories @ Informatica World
Our customer executives delivered some inspiring presentations at our recent Informatica World conference on how master data management (MDM) is enabling strategic business imperatives such as increasing revenue by making more relevant cross-sell offers, improving regulatory compliance with more effective reporting, and streamlining key business processes such as order-to-cash to improve the customer experience.

Women's Volleyball Wins Eighth-Straight; Moves into First Place with 3-0 Sweep at Mount Olive
October 2, 2009
Story Courtesy of Mount Olive Sports Information
MOUNT OLIVE, N.C. Alicia Mote led three Mount Olive players in double figures with a match-high 14 kills, but the Trojans fell from the ranks of the unbeaten in conference play with a 25-21, 28-26, 25-19 loss to Pfeiffer in Conference Carolinas womens volleyball Friday at Kornegay Arena. The Trojans, who also suffered their first home loss of the season, dropped into a tie for second place in the conference standings, a half-game behind Pfeiffer.
Mount Olive (7-13 overall, 7-1 Conference Carolinas) broke away from a 12-12 tie in the first set as kills by Mote and Racey Bartley highlighted a four-point run for the Trojans. But Pfeiffer (11-6, 8-1) came back with six unanswered points during a 10-2 run, highlighted by back-to-back aces by Kaci Markham, to take a 22-18 lead. Mount Olive got as close as two points, but Pfeiffer held on to take the first set.
The second set saw Mount Olive rally from a three-point deficit as kills on consecutive points by Caitlin Skislak helped give the Trojans a 20-16 lead. But Pfeiffer took advantage of Trojan miscues to score six of the next seven points and regain the lead. Motes kill put Mount Olive back on top 24-23, but Jordan OBryant answered with a kill for Pfeiffer as the Falcons saved a set point. Both teams would save a set point before Abbie Ovbey broke a 26-26 tie with a kill and a block to give Pfeiffer a two-set lead.
Exactly one week earlier, Mount Olive rallied from a two-set deficit against Lees-McRae to move into sole possession of first place in the conference standings. But another comeback was not in the cards this time.
Pfeiffer built an 18-12 lead in the third set after Markham again served aces on consecutive points. Markham finished with five of Pfeiffers 11 aces. Mount Olive pulled within two as Mote had four kills during a 6-2 Trojan run. But OBryant and Brittany Dickens combined on two blocks during a match-ending 5-1 run to give the Falcons the victory.
Bartley finished with 11 kills and three blocks for Mount Olive, while Christiane Maul added 10 kills. Joanie Werling finished with 41 assists to go with three blocks and two aces. Maul and Mote finished with eight digs apiece.
Kristina Mordini led Pfeiffer with 10 kills, Vanessa Gerig recorded 28 assists. Ovbey finished with a match-high seven blocks and OBryant added five blocks.

Keep the two cents and use it to buy a clue.
Keep the two cents and use it to buy a clue.
It's not "being carried" if you are pulling your weight.And what you described there is either getting carried or playing after the attunement removal, i.e., when Blizzard changed the model away from linear to their current failing model.
I agree with the OP, but things like other magic-focused fantasy MMOs are non-existent. All of them are bad WoW clones or really bad by itself.
The Mists of Pandaria coming on September 25
I started playing again a few nights ago (10 day trial) and I'm pretty disappointed. Pandaria is beautiful (including the dungeons, which are aesthetically great). The leveling is ok. Random stuff in the world to find is fun. Being forced to use ground mounts until 90 was an excellent decision. But that's where my list of good things ends.
1. The Social Experience is (almost) Gone
Not once during this process did I have to be social. I queued, said nothing, did the dungeon, and left. 'But that was your choice', you might say. Well, yes, it was. And I made that choice because the majority of social investments made in this game are nullified by menu options and cross-realm mechanics. I'm not going to invest in building a social relationship if I know I'm probably never going to see that person again.
This is compounded by the lack of reliance on other people. Warlocks brought summons, mages brought food, some people had enchanting (and you had to get enchants in person) etc etc. We've moved into a state of almost complete non-reliance on other people. This is a bad thing. One of the main reasons we are social creatures is because we need other people in order to accomplish tasks, not only for defeating enemies but also to improve oneself. This, combined with the lack of social investment mentioned above, make it pointless, even stupid at times, to be social in this game.
I think it's useful to here mention the adage 'bring the player, not the class'. I don't think this is true. The class brings flavor, and creates reliance, and creates a demand for people's unique skills and thus for social activity. Classes are highly homogenous now in what they can accomplish. It's important for each class to have well-defined strengths that the player can attempt to exploit and well-defined weaknesses that they can try to minimize. These well-defined characteristics are mostly gone, because every class can do a little bit of everything.
2. Content Overwhelming
There's a lot of content in Mists, and there's a problem with it. The problem might not be the quantity, but rather its presentation.
Questing has evolved drastically. Now, we have a hub of quests designated to a specific part of a zone with the zone divided entirely into little parts. It's not the worst system. But it's pretty close. Questing is the single player experience. It should be as epic as multiplayer content, but right now it's just a mandatory prerequisite that few people enjoy (I do enjoy it though). A better design would be to reduce the number of quests, but make each more meaningful. Again, if we aren't investing anything in the questing process (emotionally or otherwise), we won't enjoy it nearly as much. Don't make me go to the bottom of a lake to collect 10 pieces of amber AND THEN give me increased swim speed and underwater breathing. Why would you do that? You just seriously devalued this quest. Make me work harder to collect 2 pieces of amber. Make me have to come up for air. The time it takes might even be the same. But now I feel like I'm doing something.
Dungeons suffer from a similar problem. They're too short. They don't have complex pathways (actually incredibly linear...). Getting lost in dungeons forces us to reach out to other people for help. Not knowing the way, not knowing mechanics forces us to ask. Reliance, again, is crucial. And again, if you place higher value on the content, we as players won't feel the need to rush through it, ignoring all of the aspects of the game that make it an otherworldly experience.
Raids. Raids are okay with one major exception - Raid Finder. It has to go. Not having access to content drives people to gain access to it. If you walk by that instance portal every day and think of what you don't have, attaining it will be incredibly rewarding (and force you to socialize - the reliance on guild members is the last real form of reliance in the game, and even it is being eroded). If it's just a menu option, you don't think twice. And then when you get inside the raid, you don't talk to anyone. You just do your rotation and then leave.
There are also too many difficulty levels in raids. I hit 95 and was overwhelmed by the options - and I didn't know which one was the 'right' one for me.
Heroic Dungeons
Timeless Isle
Raid Finder
Flex Raid
Normal Raid
Heroic Raid
Do we really need seven tiers at any one time? No. But the problem here runs deeper. By having so many tiers of gear, we as players are forced to focus on that which is only the highest attainable ilvl for us and ignore the rest of the content. What's the point of all that content if so few people see it, and more importantly, understand it?
3. Challenge Level - Unmotivated
Items are too easy to get. If they're easy to get, their value goes down. Simple economics. Make them harder to get, and we might actually bother to read the item's name. I'm mostly looking at timeless isle here. I don't have a solution; but I know that 2 hours and 15 epics is not a valid equation for the success of a game.
Providing both challenging and unchallenging modes of content will result in a watering-down of the content's value. There is no thrill to raid finder. And because everyone can see the content, the exclusivity is diminished and thus the accomplishments feel diminished.
Questing is not epic. It's 'do these chores, don't worry, they're slightly different from the 300 others you just finished'. Quality and immersion should be key here, not quantity.
4. Exploration
I'll be brief here: exploration is in serious trouble. A lot of this is because zones are saturated with quest material. Anywhere you go, the mobs there are probably for a quest. This immediately signals to us that it is not novel information, and exploration is not involved (BECAUSE questing is so linear). Having non-linear hubs is damage control, and it's poor damage control because the exclamation marks are on the map (...).
Exploration means going out into the wilderness, where there is nothing, or something. You don't know. What you do know is that you're doing it to escape the guiding hand that pushes you along the quest line. If you're guided to a spot (especially by economic coercion, which in this case is xp and money), it's no longer exploration.
I see what's happened to this game as a form of capitalism. The emotional aspects of it have been drawn out and away either through removing benefits or providing incentives that lead to antisocial behavior. Gear maximization is the only goal, not character building. This is not a single player game. You can't remove its emotional and social aspects, and expect to succeed in the long run.
I completely agree OP. The game does not feel challenging except heroic raiding and if you have a low ilvl for normals near the end of completing the raid.
Cata heroics where a nice step in the right direction but the amount of people not liking a challenge ruined it.
There's a reason the game is bleeding subs. You make the game easy which allows you to get everything you want/need without as much effort as you use to need to acquire items, you get bored and this move to other games.
Maybe blizzard will figure it out before they reach 2 million subs
Dungeons is just now just a quick gearing. Making it hard or difficult will just make people complain. I recall people were moaning about WoTLK dungeons. Then came HoR-H. Remember that one? Tanks and healers would normally just drop once they see it because it was such a pain to do with PUGs. You want dungeons where tanks and healers would automatically drop queue? Bring back organize groups for dungeons? Make it harder and longer to gear up alts?
Many things sounds better on paper. They may even be fun for a short while but after 2nd or 3rd time, people just want it done as quickly as possible.
Is it just me or does everyone feel like they have some valuable insight that only they can see?
Your point #1 nicely captures my feelings - I don't mind the change in mechanics, but Bizzard's seeming loss of focus on what made the game social is what is most apparent to me. Not sure it's something that can be reversed, but I do miss it.
When people stop liking CoD or really any game they stop playing. When people stop liking WoW they start crying.
Ever think that it is you and not the game?
Granted it has faults, but just stop pining and move on.
You must see how hypocritical you are.
I stopped reading at progression and difficulty. I like the pve in its current form. I play this game to pvp. Not to bang on monsters that do the same thing over and over.
The pvp needs addressed, not the pve.
If i had a say so id remove or lessen the 70% damage reduction in pvp. Lessen the healing penalty. Spikey burst and people being blown up? Thats called poor gear and something to strive for. Clearly you cant hit people as hard as you do raid bosses so fix the pve. Stop fucking up the pvp. Tbc pvp eas great. I even remember the pvp in vanilla being good.
I dont get why they want to level the playing field so much and make it noob friendly. You have nothing to work for of you can accomplish x with any gear.
Class balance is something that needs to be addresed. Rogues one shotting people for 40 levels is stupid. Low level pvp doesnt matter? It matters to me. I level toons all the time to pvp up because i get bored of 90 pvp. Warrior deep wounds ticks for 1\4 of your health in the 40s. Who worked on the scaling? They need a new job.
Fix the pvp. Pve is fine.
Iam a casual now and i 101% agree with you! i level new toon with my girlfriend together and especially the part about leveling hit the needle on the head ( xD dont know to say this in english).
once i raided 5 times a week, now i am fine with only being a casual but there is nothing to show my skill... i can run dungeons with my girl together without takeing a break r stand even still... but that can do a lot of people.
- - - Updated - - -
this is not a good example... CoD doenst change, wow does. i like the game, the graphics, the feeling, the mechanics. i dont like the change of my old quests, the much dmg you do, the much healing you do... CoD is a fistperson shooter. you cant compare this
cat sleeps on mousepad...

If they fix pvp, I'll pvp again.
CC has a huge place in PvP. If you took that out the only thing you have left is tunneling people down, because you can't stop them from attacking. It'd just become a game of who can burst who faster.CC should be for pve, like how you had to cc mobs for heroics at the start of cata(When heroics where actually fun).

DEEP RUN — South Lenoir punished visiting pitcher Sarah Smoot, literally and figuratively, and the Blue Devils cruised to a deceptively easy 10-2 triumph over Climax Providence Grove in the second round of the NCHSAA state 2A softball playoffs Tuesday.
The Blue Devils (20-3) also caught a huge break after the game when Whiteville defeated top-seeded Bartlett-Yancey 3-2, guaranteeing South Lenoir a third-round home game on Friday against the Wolfpack instead of the lengthy trip across the state to Yanceyville.
"It was a good night all around," SL coach Lisa Smith said. "We played extremely well and we get to stay at home on Friday. Everything worked out just like we hoped it would."
It definitely wasn't a good night for Smoot, the Patriots' ace right-hander who had struck out 104 batters in 76 innings of work coming into the contest.
In addition to being pounded for seven hits and all 10 Devils runs, the junior was drilled twice by hard hit balls back through the box.
The first time, in the fourth, came off the bat of Mattie Beyer and nailed Smoot in the left thigh. She was able to walk that one off and stay in the game.
Smoot wasn't so lucky in the sixth.
SL's Brianna Williams scorched a fastball off the pitcher's right forearm, and this time Smoot was forced to leave the game. Her condition was unavailable at press time.
"We hit the ball hard all night; it's a shame their pitcher got hurt like she did," Smith said. "It certainly wasn't anything intentional. I hope she'll be okay."
On the other side, SL pitchers Taylor Sandlin and Beyer were more than okay.
Sandlin scattered five hits over five innings with three strike outs. Beyer allowed one hit and one unearned run over the final two frames.
After spotting the Patriots a 1-0 lead in the top of the first, the Devils made short work of the visitors, scoring six times in the first three innings.
Some nifty base running by Madison Herring and a clutch, two-out, two-run base hit by Anna Wetherington led to three SL runs in the bottom of the first.
Morgan Mentz delivered a second inning single that also plated two runs and contributed a sacrifice fly during a four-run SL outburst in the sixth.
Williams managed three hits and an RBI for the Devils, while Beyer collected two hits and drove in a run in the sixth with a double to deep center field.
Hanna Meready and Cassidy Willoughby also garnered hits for the Devils.
Although Herring didn't get a hit, she scored three times and literally stole SL's first run when she caught the Patriots infield napping and tallied all the way from first base on an infield hit by Williams.
"I have a lot to be pleased about," Smith said. "We hit the ball well, our pitchers were outstanding, and we played excellent defense. It was just a great overall effort by a team that had worked hard the entire season."
Providence Grove 100 001 0—2 6 1
South Lenoir 321 004 x—10 8 1
Smoot, Trogden (6) and Brady, Barnhart (5); Sandlin, Beyer (6) and Williams. W—Sandlin. L—Smoot.

Dan Carter is unlikely to play against France in Saturday's first Test of the three-Test series.
Carter has a cracked bone in his hand.
The world's best flyhalf for the past decade has struggled with injury over the last few years and his pursuit of playing 100 Tests has stuttered in the 90s. He is currently on 94.
Carter missed the World Cup play-offs in 2011 because of a groin tear and has missed half the Super Rugby season because of injury and the birth of his first child.
Aaron Cruden, who started the World Cup final against France in 2011 when the teams last met, is expected to start in Carter's absence.
All Blacks coach Steve Hansen said the injuries were part of rugby and would not disrupt preparations too much as they start the training component of preparations tomorrow.
He told the New Zealand media: 'Tomorrow is all about clarity in our attack game. 'We'll take our time, and guys can lift, they don't have to run. The injuries aren't that bad we're going to have wholesale changes in the front row. I'm picking most of them will be OK.'
Piri Weepu and Tony Woodcock are also in doubt and Sam Whitelock won't play in the first Test.

Club competitions
National team competitions
Israel returned home from the Eural Trans Gas European Championship for U20 Men this week to a hero's welcome. 250,000 fans in Israel had tuned in to watch their country's remarkable run to the Final live on Israel's Sports Channel. The Quarter-Finals, Semi-Finals and Final were broadcast live, and the final gained a 8.3% audience share.
Israel's Under-20 team received a hero's welcome when they returned home from the Czech Republic after claiming the silver medal at the European Championship.
For the second time in a row, Israel lost in the final. This time they fell to Slovenia, but their supporters praised the team's efforts.
Slovenia are the 2004 European Champions for U20 Men. In 2002 they suffered heartbreak, losing in desperately close fashion to Croatia, who made 2 free throws at the buzzer to win 74:72.
In 2004, it was Slovenia who closed the game by making not only several clutch shots, but 6 free throws in the last 30 seconds to close out Israel.

|Major League Baseball and the Tampa Bay Rays Deliver "Fun Center" for Pediatric Patients During World Series
As part of Baseball's continuing efforts to affect the lives of children in a positive and meaningful way, Major League Baseball and the American League Champion Tampa Bay Rays teamed up with the Starlight Children's Foundation to donate a Fun Center to All Children's Hospital.
The Fun Center is a mobile entertainment unit containing a Nintendo Wii gaming system, Sharp AQUOS liquid flat screen monitor and DVD Player. The four-foot tall Fun Center, designed for use by young patients even if they are confined to bed, features the logos of both Major League Baseball and the Tampa Bay Rays. The Fun Center was officially delivered by Raymond, the mascot of the Tampa Bay Rays, who eagerly joined young patients in trying their hand at - what else - Wii Baseball!
Fun Centers have become a focal point of Starlight's efforts to combat the isolation and fear experienced by children in hospitals. Caregivers report that Fun Centers divert children during treatment sessions, are a great distraction from hospital stress, may result in a reduced need for pain medication and are a bright spot in the long hours of a pediatric patient's day.
The Starlight Children's Foundation is a non-profit organization dedicated to improving the quality of life for children with chronic and life-threatening medical conditions. The Foundation uses a combination of "high-tech" and "high-touch" programs designed to distract children from their pain and help them better understand and manage their illnesses.

Break out your mini skirt and Go-Go boots, 'cause we're going way back to the swinging '60s
If I could go back in time and transport myself to one decade, it would be the 1960s. Don't get me wrong, I love my iPhone and Starbucks, but I would give it all up for a chance to see the Beatles in concert while dressed in a mini shift dress, knee-high boots, and my hair styled in a high bouffant. I just think there's something so chic about the '60s.
Click here to see our '60s style fashion and beauty roundup.
Case in point: Twiggy, Brigitte Bardot, Jackie O. These style icons of the 1960s always looked perfectly pretty and pulled together. And it was during this time that one of the biggest fashion subcultures emerged. The mod (short for "modernist") movement started in London in the early '60s and quickly spread to the states. Mod fashion was all about bright colors, beehive hairstyles, and of course ... the mini skirt.
And while the mini skirt has never really gone out of style, the look of the decade has recently had a resurgence. Between "Mad Men," Lana Del Rey (and her retro bombshell look), and the Louis Vuitton Spring 2013 show, I'm starting to wonder what time period we're actually living in.
If you want to get in on the trend, but don't want to look like you're wearing a Halloween costume, follow this guide. Inside are all the tips and tricks you need to pull off '60s style in the year 2012.

Here is information for the April training course:
April 8-10, 2014
8:30 a.m. – 4:00 p.m. each day.
Theodore Roosevelt Building
U.S. Office of Personnel Management

Washington, DC 20415
Evaluator training for agency representatives participating in human resources evaluations associated with the SAA initiative.

da ThRONe... look, I don't know anything about davis' future limitations (no one could yet) so i'm not going to argue over them. Admit that you don't either. Making a prediction is one thing, but speaking with definitives just isn't wise. I mean, what happens when davis drives by a SF or holds his own with a Center. (this WILL happen. how consistently? who knows) What happens is that your argument becomes invalid.
I want you to be able to enjoy it if and when davis exceeds your expectations as optimists will when he exceeds theirs. Its also important to note that a davis skeptic could have the EXACT same expectations for davis' rookie season as a davis optimist, the only difference being that the optimist holds the possibility of development.
It seems many of your arguments are made with the idea that davis will not grow, progress, or adapt.
Again, you KNOW this will happen; to what extent? who knows.
Bottom line here though.. davis is a great benefit to this team -already- and he only has up to go; if someone cant admit that they are either an ungrateful and cynical critic, or perhaps not a fan of this team.

The Tug Valley Panthers will hit the road this week traveling to Boone County to take on Van.
The Panthers are 2-5 and now have a slim chance at making the playoffs. A win over the 3-3 Bulldogs would help their chances.
Tug Valley lost to Valley of Fayette last week at home. They have been hit with the injury bug, which happens to many teams this time of the season.
However, for a Class A team, with only about 30 kids on the roster, the depth is just not there for Tug Valley.
Sophomore fullback Phillip Lucas lead Tug Valley's rushing attack with 82 carries for 403 yards and a pair of touchdowns (TDs).
Senior tailback David Runyon has 69 carries for 288 yards and 2 TDs, sophomore quarterback Tyler Conley 75 carries for 102 yards and 3 TDs and Justin Baisden 28 carries for 46 yards.
Aaron Copley leads the team with 15 receptions for 352 yards and 4 TDs, while Runyon has15 receptions for 210 yards and 2 TDs. Copley was injured on the first play of the game last week against Valley of Fayette.
Runyon missed two games after pulling a hamstring early in the game with Tolsia back on September 27. The senior captain missed that game and the next week, but returned last week. However, he only played on offense and did not see much action on defense.
In the Panther passing game sophomore quarterback Tyler Conley has completed 50-of-106 passing attempts for a 47.2 completion percentage for 819 yards, 8 TD and only 2 interceptions.
On defense, leading in tackles are Tyler Conley 36, Chad Hundley 33, Phillip Lucas 27, Justin Baisden 23, Jonathan Farley 22 and Thomas Baisden 20.

When disturbed, the spider might first vibrate the web to try to make its body look bigger, but if that fails to deter a predator she will drop to the ground and hide (Faulkner 1999). Adults may be captured by wasps such as the Blue Mud Dauber, Chalybion californicum (Landes et al. 1987). They are also eaten by birds, lizards, and shrews.
Overwintering egg cases protect spiderlings from predation. Suspending the cocoon from the web is particularly effective against ant predation. The vast majority, however, are eventually damaged by birds. Cocoons wall layers provide barriers against burrowing larvae of insect predators and ovipositors of parasitic insects, but Ichneumonidae wasps such as Tromatopia rufopectus and Chloropidae flies such as Pseudogaurax signatus lay their eggs in Argiope aurantia egg cases. In fact, one study found that in addition to Argiope aurantia, nineteen species of insects and eleven species of spiders emerged from Argiope aurantia egg cases. (Hieber 1993, Lockley and Young 1993). (Faulkner, 1999; Hieber, 1992; Landes et al., 1987; Lockley and Young, 1993)

The 17th Annual

2014 Visionary Award Winners
Tim Draper Jessica Jackley Tim O'Reilly Tina Seelig
About the Visionaries:
Tim Draper has been at the forefront of innovation for over four decades. He has been a Venture Capitalist for 39 years, an angel investor to over 1,000 companies, and founding partner of Draper Fisher Jurvetson, a legendary venture capital firm that gave rise to DFJ Ventures and DFJ Global Network, an international network of early-stage venture capital funds with over 30 global offices. His continued commitment to education led to the recent development of the Draper University of Heroes, a residential and online school dedicated to encouraging proactive entrepreneurship. Politically active, he recently launched "Six Californias" a statewide initiative to divide California into six new states.
Introduced by: Billy Draper, UI/UX designer at Apartment List; angel investor Tim Draper
Jessica Jackley is an extraordinary entrepreneur and investor. Her focus on affordable financial inclusion, combined with her commitment to a sharing economy and social justice, were a catalyst to her co-founding Kiva, the world's first microlending website. Under Jessica's leadership, Kiva has provided a gateway for individuals to support businesses in underserved communities—over half a billion dollars in loans have been made to fledgling companies in 216 countries. Continuing her commitment to help others, she co-founded ProFounder, a pioneering crowdfunding platform for US entrepreneurs. Jessica is also a visiting practitioner at Stanford's Center for Philanthropy and Civil Society, an advisor to the Collaborative Fund, and has worked in such organizations as the Stanford Center for Social Innovation, World Vision, International Museum of Women, and the Global Health Corps.
Introduced by: Reza Aslan, bestselling author, founder of AslanMedia
Tim O'Reilly's original business plan was simply "interesting work for interesting people". With that in mind, he grew his business organically. Upon graduation from Harvard, he began writing the computer user manuals known as the "animal books," which are still the go-to reference books for developers. After the dot-com crash, he became a leader in the Web 2.0 renaissance and began GNN, the first commercial website. As the founder of O'Reilly Media, he defines the company as a technology transfer company that is "changing the world by spreading the knowledge of innovators." His successful career as an online book publisher, magazine publisher, and conference and event producer has made him a leader in disruptive media; however, Tim is not defined by any one area—he sees opportunities for advancement in technology through many different venues. One example is his Maker Faire, which has global recognition.
Introduced by: Steven Levy, author and Wired Magazine journalist; 2008 Visionary Award Honoree
Dr. Tina Seelig is multi-talented and multi-titled: teacher, author, consultant, entrepreneur, and neuroscientist. She is Professor of the Practice in the Dept. of Management Science and Engineering (MS&E) at Stanford University, where she is also Executive Director for the Stanford Technology Ventures Program (STVP), the entrepreneurship center at Stanford University School of Engineering. To try to attribute one title to what Tina does in a single day would be impossible. She is dedicated to developing the next generation of entrepreneurial leaders and teaches "refining problems, challenging the assumptions and connecting and combining ideas" to Stanford students in her course on Creativity and Innovation (MS&E 277) and the Hasso Plattner Institute of Design (d.school). Dr. Seelig earned her Ph.D. from Stanford University Medical School in 1985, where she studied neuroscience. Other accomplishments include management consulting for Booz, Allen, and Hamilton, a multimedia producer at Compaq Computer Corporation; she also founded the multimedia company called BookBrowser, and has written 16 popular science books and educational games.

Economic Importance for Humans: Negative
Chimpanzees have been known to prey upon young humans when the opportunity arises, although the propensity for this behavior is closely related to the presence of waste from human beer-making facilities. Chimpanzees eat these attractive, fermented leavings and become intoxicated, making them more likely to become aggressive. When frightened or aggressive chimpanzees can be dangerous, even to adult humans. In addition, because of their biological similarity to humans, they may serve as a reservoir or host for diseases that affect humans. (Goodall, 1986; Nowak, 1999)
Negative Impacts: Injures Humans; Injures Humans :: bites or stings; Injures Humans :: carries human disease

Pants & Capris
Girls' Pants & Capris
Product Selection
Performance Ready: Girls Athletic Pants
Dress her for performance. Select girls' athletic pants designed to boost her game and match her style. Watch her stretch, flex, jump and dominate her game. Choose girls capris or pants that deliver the performance fit she needs when she's logging miles or lighting up the court.
For a relaxed fit, try girls' sweatpants. Expect a comfortable, stretchable feel in sweat capris or full-length pants. For a custom-like fit, choose girls' sweatpants with elastic cuffs that she can pull up when the temperatures warm.
For an undeniably flattering fit, look for the streamlined fit of yoga pants and capris for girls. Choose running pants that deliver a sleek, friction-free feel as she rounds the track. Weather-resistant outdoors pants are perfect for spending time in the great outdoors. Gain remarkable warmth in youth snow pants and bibs that insulate yet allow for total flexibility.
For a second-skin fit, turn to girls' compression pants, which can be worn alone or as an insulating baselayer. Get quality from the brands she loves like Nike®, The North Face®, Reebok® and Under Armour®.
Buying Tips
Consider her active lifestyle when picking out the right pair of girls' athletic pants.
If she craves a streamlined fit, look for tights or capris. For a relaxed look or days lounging at home, loose-fitting sweatpants are the right match. She'll conquer outdoor practice in quick-drying, weatherproof rain pants.
Four-way stretch in girls' capris and pants ensure that her mobility is never inhibited. Flatlock seams prevent chafing and irritation as she moves. Think about the waistband of her pants: A stretch waistband delivers a custom-like fit. For a seamless silhouette, look for a wide, flat waistband.
Keep her muscles energized when she needs it most with the second-skin fit of compression pants. Compression gear supports her body, regulates temperature and speeds up muscle recovery time, so she performs at her peak.
Expert Advice
Pick up athletic pants that keep her fresh feeling throughout the day.
Antimicrobial finish on her pants works to prevent the growth of odor-causing bacteria. Moisture-wicking technology on her garment pulls perspiration from her skin, so she stays dry-feeling under pressure.
