Little did Billy Ryan know that a basketball camp amid the highlands of
But that's how it turned out for the 6-foot-7, 235-pound Ryan, who along with playing football and basketball for the Cougars also finished seventh in the discus in the NCHSAA 2-A state track championships this past season.
"I just fell in love with the campus," Ryan said. "It's really a pretty site, up in the hills, nice old buildings from the time of Abraham Lincoln. It is one of the oldest campuses in the state. It was just kind of neat. Every morning there'd be a train going through the campus. It's just a nice area."
The 18-year-old Ryan considered several other schools, including N.C. Wesleyan, Methodist,
"You weren't a stranger," he said.
Still, there was at least one surprise for Ryan, who played tackle on both sides of the ball for the Cougars. No matter. His new coaches wanted him to move to tight end. That, to say the least, was a bit of a shock.
"I'm trying to bulk up now and get my speed up. Being a tackle or lineman, your job was really just to keep the guy off the quarterback or find the ball and get it on defense," he said. "Being a tight end now you're actually being a part of the play.
"It's definitely different. I've been playing lineman since I was in fifth grade. Now it's how to be a tight end. You have three months to learn a whole new position, all the routes, all the technical terms.
"I'm like, 'Oh, my God.'"
While he didn't balk at the change, Ryan hopes if he bulks up he could eventually be on the other side of the ball as a defensive end.
"But right now it's tight end," he said.
While Division
Ultimately, he would love to design cars — his favorite is the 1970 Stingray Corvette.
"I like the shape of the body," he said, adding that it was "amazing" that he was getting a chance to play college football while also being able to pursue his love of art and graphic design.
"My dad always told me growing up, 'Oh, you'll play college football,' but it really is a dream come true. That's what I really was hoping to do," Ryan added. "When our season ended back in November it was really a sad moment for all of us because we realized, hey, we're all growing up and this could be our last game.
"But to have another chance of playing in college, it really is a dream come true."

RegioStars Awards 2011: Amsterdam Smart City
23/06/2011This video showcases the "Amsterdam Smart City" project, supported by the EU through the European Regional Development Fund (ERDF). This initiative, under which individuals, businesses and local authorities are working together on 12 pilot-projects, aims to cut energy consumption and reduce the region's carbon footprint in the medium to long term.
Samsø energy academy, Samsø island, Denmark
04/01/2010This film is part of a series of four reports (Lithuania, Sweden, Denmark, Finland) produced within the framework of launching the EU strategy for the Baltic Sea. They present projects co-funded by the European Commission under the European Regional Development Fund (ERDF). Samsø island, which enjoys 100% energy autonomy, today expects to become a source of inspiration for other regions. This determination is epitomised notably by its energy academy, which opened in summer 2006. With ERDF support, the academy aims to demonstrate that it is possible to ally new energy practices and economic viability. The academy is working to raise public awareness while also encouraging scientific research in the field of new sources of energy.
RegioStars 2009 : Photovoltaic electricity production
02/01/2009This video showcases the project led by Alain Orriols to develop a station producing photovoltaic energy at Saint-Pierre on Reunion Island. The station produces electricity from panels located on three buildings which are connected to a transformer. By adapting existing techniques to a tropical environment, this project has enabled the island to take a big step towards self-sufficiency in electricity production while also creating local jobs.

July 31, 2011 - 1:00 P.M.
Doubles - 1 Round
USI Eagle Valley - Evansville, IN
$5 Entry
Double Points Chainbangers Event!!
Everybody break out your Condors and black mascara, we are having a good old fashioned roller derby! Random draw doubles where every shot except for the one that goes in must be a roller! Detailed rules listed below.
-Format is best shot doubles.
-Every shot must be a roller unless it is your putt. If your putt is missed, then you must count the stroke for missing the putt and shoot from the same lie. If the first player attempts a putt, then your team has committed to an air shot and both players must attempt an air shot. This will eliminate teams running at longer putts, missing, and then laying down the easy roller for their upshot.
-The first throw from tee-pad must always be a roller. A roller will be defined by a shot that is thrown, lands on its edge and more than 50% of its distance traveled will be spent on the ground.
-If the validity of a roller comes into question, then a vote will be used to decide. I am going to push for groups of 6 to create a voting situation. If there is a tie, then the vote will go in favor of the accused roller.

The Office of Disability Support Services (DSS) provides assistance to students, who qualify for reasonable accommodation under the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA), and Sections 504 and 508 of the Rehabilitation Act. Reasonable accommodations may be granted, based upon verification with appropriate documentation, for chronic illnesses, neurological conditions, learning disabilities, psychiatric illnesses, mobility impairments, and other conditions or impairments that limit one or more of life's major activities. Please refer to the College's Documentation Guidelines for specific information on requesting reasonable accommodations.
The mission of DSS is to provide access to College programs, services, activities, and facilities for students with disabilities; to provide student advocacy; to encourage the highest levels of academic and personal achievement; and to advocate for an accessible environment for students, faculty, staff, and visitors.
Transitioning to College
Transitioning to College can feel overwhelming and even a bit confusing. Understanding the differences between high school and college are particularly important for individuals with disabilities. Students need to fully understand that processes and rights of students in post-secondary education vary greatly from those in K-12 education.
Below are two documents that provide information to students and their families about the transition to higher education in general, and more specifically Ivy Tech.
U.S. Department of Education Publication: Students with Disabilities Preparing for Postsecondary Education: Know Your Rights and Responsibilities
Ivy Tech Community College: Information for High School Students Transitioning to Ivy Tech
Disability Documentation Guidelines
Documentation of a disability assists the Office of Disability Support Services, in collaboration with the student, to determine reasonable accommodations and/or services on a case-by-case basis. The cost of obtaining all documentation is the responsibility of the student.
Documentation, along with the Intake Request Form, should be submitted to DSS at least 30 days in advance of the requested accommodation to allow review and implementation of reasonable accommodations.
In general, documentation should include the following:
Guidelines for specific disabilities may be obtained below. Should you have any questions, contact your local Disability Support Services office listed below.

eBook Information for Requests
Welcome to Ivy Tech Community College-Central Indiana's eBook website for requests
The eBook is an electronic system for DSS students to have their textbook converted into an alternate format. If your instructor notification letter includes eBook accommodations, follow the check list. The check list will guide you through the process of obtaining your textbooks in an alternate electronic format.
New and Returning Student Checklist
When you register with DSS, you will have a DSS Counselor to help coordinate accommodations, advise you on other disability-related issues, plan your course load, or refer you to resources on campus or out in the community that will help you better manage your disability. Your Counselor can also consult with faculty or other staff regarding your disability-related needs.
You need to meet with your Counselor at the beginning of each semester to get coursework accommodations put in place. This includes picking up your instructor notification form (which includes your eBook accommodation). How often you meet with your Counselor depends on what you want to work on. Some students come in as often as once per week, others come in less often, or on an "as-needed" basis.
You can get assistance from your DSS Counselor by setting up an appointment; the most efficient way to handle more complex issues or questions. You can also get assistance with questions via email, or by phoning. When you first meet your DSS Counselor, talk about the best way to stay in touch.
Reminder: accommodations are not set up automatically, i.e., you need to request accommodations each semester!

This is crazy. Sw_update on the E6 tells me the update is available. *#0000# says not. Nokia Suite says not.
[later] OK, had a brainwave. Reinstalled Nokia Suite (same version). UPDATE SHOWS UP!
Phew.... Updating now...

It shows as the update is available on my phone...
Will have to wait to get home and update it.

01-03-2012 19:30
So I updated to Belle last night and have been using it all day today.
I think it's great! I've read compliants about the size of the widgets etc.
Personally I think they are fine, they look better and the e-mail + Calender offer more information (In Anna I don't think you could scroll down in the in the widget could you?)
I'm enjoying the overall feel
01-03-2012 23:25
I updated yesterday and so far its been a great experience. Its seems to be a more fluid system then Anna. I don't have any problem with the size of widgets on the E6 screen, actually like them better as they provide more information. Wi-fi is working fine along with email and web browser. No complaints on my end.
Will definitely keep using this phone for the forseeable future.
03-09-2012 23:20
I've bounced up this old thread from when Belle was first released.
I'm ever so slightly starting to wonder if the generic and unbranded E6 with product code 059H6F1 has actually been forgotten about by Nokia for a second time now that Belle Refresh updates are out. Surely not!?
19-09-2012 12:10
I'm also still waiting on Belle Refresh for my E6-00 059H6F1 . It's unbranded and SIM-free, so why the wait? Can anyone from Nokia comment on this please?

Summer over, and let's faces it – Chicago's best season is fall. The humidity of summer suddenly turns crisp, ushering bursts of gorgeous, coppery color in the trees.
Here are a few things you should try to do this September in Chicago;
1. Try a new restaurant.
New hotspots opening this season: Chop Shop and the 1st Ward (a Bucktown restaurant, bar, music venue and butcher shop combined into one) debuts in mid-September, A10 (a European venture from Matthias Merges of Yusho and Billy Sunday) arrives in October and Eataly (Mario Batali's megaspace of eight restaurants, a microbrewery and a culinary school) opens its doors in mid-November.
2. Drive out to the drive-in.
Before the weather gets too cold, bundle up with some blankets, popcorn and good company at the old-timey Cascade Drive-In in West Chicago.
3. Design Harvest Festival Sept. 28-29
Chicago's annual street festival celebrating home design will feature a myriad of local vendors and antique collectors, as well as family hay rides, pumpkin painting to raise money for a local elementary school, square dancing, cold beer, delicious food and live music programming from The Hideout.
4. Search for the best cider.
'Tis that time of year. For the hard cider fans: Sprout, SmallBar, The Grafton Pub and Kuma's Corner all have excellent selections. Have it hot or cold, a perfect drink for fall time weather.

Scott Green knows what Christmas should be like.
"An island of peace and calm," says the Newport Beach investor. For Green, a Christian, that means plenty of time to pray, contemplate Jesus' birth and worship God with fellow Christians
But Christmas was not like that this year for Green. He and his wife spent the frenzied weeks leading up to the holiday buying gifts for two dozen family members and friends, attending two to three holiday parties per week (kids in tow), paying hundreds of dollars to a few college students to string up outdoor lights, and somehow finding time to work a demanding job and parent a daughter and two sons, ages seven to 13.
Oh, and the Greens also went to church on Sundays.
As for that quiet prayer time, Green said whenever he managed to wake up early enough he retreated to his back porch in the pre-dawn dark to sit for a few minutes with eyes closed under the heat lamp.
"This time of year you have challenges with your time," he lamented. "You have to prioritize."
Every December, headlines appear proclaiming a "War on Christmas" in an increasingly secular America. A page on the Fox News website is dedicated to the topic.
But for many Christians, the challenge posed by Christmas American-style has little to do with banned Nativity displays or generic holiday greetings.
Instead, say worshippers, Americans' fervent embrace of Black Friday megadeals, holiday partying, and round-the-clock pre-Christmas shopping has all but obliterated the religious significance of one of Christianity's most sacred celebrations.
"I try not to bash secular culture every Sunday," said Rev. Curtis Webster, interim pastor of St. Mark Presbyterian Church in Newport Beach, where Scott Green and his family attend.
"But this time of year I will say it feels like it's this irresistible tidal wave of demands, logistics. And I'm not speaking just for myself, but for everyone I know. They say, 'Gee, when I get to Christmas morning I don't have a sense of miracle and renewal. I have a sense of going, 'Whew, it's over.'"
Webster said his church, located across the street from Fashion Island, sometimes feels like a symbolic battleground between traditional Christian Christmas and the shopping extravaganza that has become America's predominant holiday ritual.
"The church has become countercultural in this season," Webster said. "Consumer culture is with us 12 months of the year. This is a time of year when it feels particularly oppressive."
Last Christmas, Americans spent $563 billion on gifts, greeting cards, flowers and other holiday items, according to the National Retail Federation. That's almost double the amount Americans gave to charities, including churches, throughout the entire year.
The retail federation expects holiday sales to rise more than 4 percent this year, including a record $140 per person for "self-gifts" — items bought for the shopper's own use.

Women's Soccer Honors Six Seniors with 3-0 Shutout over Converse
October 16, 2010
MISENHEIMER, N.C. Pfeiffer University fired 14 shots on goal notching a pair of second half goals in a 3-0 shutout of Converse College on Saturday afternoon in Conference Carolinas womens soccer action at N.E. Lefko Field. The Lady Falcons honored six seniors before the match on senior day as they improve to 8-5 overall, 5-2 in league play. The Valkyries see the loss dip their record to 2-11-1, 1-5-1.
Pfeiffer got on the board in the 21st minute with Jessica Moulton (Huntingtown, MD) finding the back of the net after coming close earlier in the match. Back in the seventh minute of play, Moulton fired a shot on goal only to see Converse keeper Ashley Mercuri (Mississauga, ONTARIO) deflect her save off the post to her right and back into play. Moulton would later cash in her second of the year blasting a shot into the cage after an end line cross by Megan Reaves (Mims, FL).
Just 2:06 into the second half, Pfeiffer made it a two-goal advantage as a Megan Weston (Olathe, KS) corner kick deflected off of Lindsay Godwin (Raleigh, NC) and over to Sheena Regan (Chesapeake, VA) who touched in her third of the year. Scoring concluded in the 72nd minute as Mariah Martinez (League City, TX) sent a cross on the end line and inside the 18 over to Rachael Shapelow who headed home goal number two of the year.
Converse had a pair of late shots in the contests, both on goal, by Rebecca Dupre (Pine Bluff, NC) and Lisa Ryan (Burlington, NC). Both attempts were turned away by Amanda Wemple (Hayden Lake, ID) who made her first start of the season in net for the Lady Falcons.
Pfeiffer will return home on Tuesday afternoon playing in their final regular season home match of 2010. The Lady Falcons will continue their quest to host Conference Carolinas tournament matches by hosting Coker at 3:00 p.m.

Big banks relied on short sales rather than reductions in principal to make a start on their $20 billion national mortgage settlement.
That's the bottom line in a report released Monday by the monitor of a nationwide settlement between five banks, 49 state attorneys general and the U.S. Justice Department.
Bank of America, Ally Financial, Citibank, JPMorgan Chase and Wells Fargo said that from March 1 through Sept. 30 they approved $13.3 billion in short sales, in which banks allow homeowners to sell homes for less than is owed on their mortgages. Nearly half of the short sales, $5.9 billion, were in California.
They completed $7.78 billion in principal reductions or loan refinances with reduced rates, including $2.9 billion in California.
Consumer advocates aren't happy that the short sales push consumers out of their homes.
"I would like to make sure that every eligible borrower is getting considered for a principal modification which allows them to stay in their home," said Paul Leonard, California director of the Center for Responsible Lending, a nonprofit that works on consumer lending issues.
But, Leonard said, it is still early in the three-year settlement. The banks started quickly with what they knew – short sales – and have only begun making loan modifications.
Bank of America, California's top lender, approved loan modifications for 9,771 California homeowners with an average reduction of $210,105 each, UCI law professor Katherine Porter said in a report Monday. Porter was appointed by California Attorney General Kamala Harris to monitor a separate settlement the state negotiated with three of the five banks.
Bank of America and the other two lenders participating in the California settlement, Chase and Wells Fargo, delivered $128 million in principal reductions on 554 loans in Orange County, Porter said.
On paper, the banks have already delivered $21.9 billion in foreclosure relief with an additional $4.2 billion in loan modifications approved or in a 90-day trial period – seemingly more than enough to satisfy the national settlement.
But some forms of relief count more than others, according to the settlement. A dollar of principal reduction is worth $1.25 if it's done by March 1, 2013, the first anniversary of the settlement. And 60 percent of all relief efforts have to involve principal reduction, Leonard said.
"We're seeing a slight shift" from short sales toward loan modifications, said Sasha Werblin at the Greenlining Institute, a nonprofit that monitors lending. "We're expecting to see that trend continue."
The court-appointed monitor, Joseph A. Smith Jr., still must confirm the banks' numbers. He is expected to issue audited numbers in February.
His report says consumers and the professionals who represent them are still finding problems in the ways the banks service loans.
One of those problems is "dual tracking," the practice of simultaneously working on a loan modification and a foreclosure. Many borrowers have complained of getting a foreclosure notice when they thought they were about to get a loan modification.

The Crusaders hung on for a 26-19 win over the Chiefs in a fast-paced match in Hamilton.
It was a typical display by the Chiefs and an atypical performance by the Crusaders that made for an erratic but entertaining match. The Chiefs looked to play at a lively tempo, forgoing the formalities of lineouts in an attempt to catch the normally solid Saders defensive line unawares. The Crusaders responded with some impressive counter-attacking movements, but will be concerned with their inconsistent showing on defence.
A clamour of cowbells accompanied Stephen Donald's second penalty as the Chiefs started brilliantly into the wind. They seemed to have tightened their approach and their defence were focused on the source of the Crusaders' power – Dan Carter. But the opening minutes were no sign of things to come, as the hosts reverted to their unstructured style moments later.
A quick lineout in their own 22 was turned over, and a sustained build-up culminated in a linebreak by Crusaders fullback Jared Payne. Scrumhalf Kahn Fotuali'i was outstanding in support, and the Crusaders took the lead against the run of play.
The Chiefs' lineout struggled with Aled de Malmanche failing to find his jumpers regularly. Their scrum was also outplayed, and they were turned over at the breakdown far too often. Their tendency to commit the bare minimum at ruck time meant they were often isolated, and one such turnover led to Fotuali'i's second try. The Crusaders broke down the short side and again it was the scrumhalf's support running that resulted in reward.
The Crusaders were equally poor at the lineout, and while Ti'i Paulo is good in the loose, he's a liability at this set-piece. Their defence was uncharacteristically porous. They were able to snuff a Brendon Leonard break early in the first half, but a powerful surge by Colin Bourke paid dividends for the Chiefs. The ball floated to Donald who found Richard Kahui with a neat offload, and with one defensive lapse the hosts were back in the match.
Carter kicked a penalty to extend the Saders' lead to 23-16, an advantage they managed to retain going into the shed. The three-pointer took Carter past Andrew Mehrtens as the second-highest point scorer in Super Rugby, the first being the Brumbies' Stirling Mortlock. Two conversions and four penalties saw Carter end the match on 996 points.
The All Blacks pivot missed another difficult attempt just after half-time, but the Crusaders' relentless march toward the Chiefs' line proved fruitful in the 54th minute. At 26-16, the Crusaders had established a comfortable cushion, but their approach was still too erratic.
The wet conditions and importance of this match would necessitate a territory based approach. The Chiefs were trying to run everything out of their own half, and their set-piece was struggling. All the Crusaders needed to do was kick for field-position and apply the squeeze.
But the Crusaders' own lineout woes continued, replacement Corey Flynn faring little better than Paulo with the feed. They couldn't control the ball through the phases either, several promising surges into the red zone undone by elementary errors. When they finally did manage to keep it with the forwards and slow the game down, they conceded a penalty at the ensuing 5m scrum.
A long-range penalty by Donald set up a thrilling final six minutes, and a missed drop attempt by Carter handed the Chiefs one last opportunity. They managed to play themselves into a position where they had a scrum 7m from the Crusaders line, but were subsequently penalised for a front-row infringement.
Coach Todd Blackadder will argue an away-win is massive, but a close analysis of the match footage will reveal that the Saders' shortcomings cost them a bonus point. The Crusaders won't have it so easy against teams with better defensive lines and set-piece structures.

Comments: I previously ordered one for myself to store souvenirs and such. I already have my mom and grandma's gift put aside for mother's day and now I will be ordering two of these for my grandpa and dad. I love how rich the wood looks and how the engraving stands out. I cant wait to get it and decorate with homemade gifts that I made for them.

Cluster Edge Academy isn't just any school, it's THE school, where the offspring of the elite come together to prepare for their roles running a world where artificial soldiers and religious sects are major factors in the battle for total control. That may be why new transfer student Agate Fluorite doesn't quite seem to fit in. It's not just that Agate's enthusiastic attitude stands out among the somber, brooding balance of the student body. There's something about him that demands notice, even from jaded honors students like Beryl Jasper, and from the moment of arrival he's been at the center of a series of mysteries that not even Agate understands.
Agate's not just another student, he's part of a something so momentous and dangerous that the world that built Cluster Edge may not survive its passing. It may take a miracle to survive the deadly forces already in motion against him, but Agate mmight just be able to produce one!

Lemons Scores Career-High 28 Tying School Record for Three-Pointers; Women's Basketball Sets and Ties Two School Records in Big Win over Barber Scotia
December 5, 2012
MISENHEIMER, N.C. Pfeiffer University sophomore Jodie Lemons (Madison, NC) poured in a career-high 28 points while tying a school-record with eight three-pointers during a comfortable 87-59 victory over Barber Scotia in womens basketball action on Wednesday night. The Lady Falcons, who set a new school-record for made threes and tied another record with 24 assists, improve to 6-1 overall while the Sabers fall to 0-8.
After an early basket by the Sabers Darrian Bush (Flint, MI) just 29 seconds in, the first of Lemons eight triples on the night gave Pfeiffer the lead for good just 1:21 later. Kellie Rhoney (Catawba, NC) would help push the lead to a half-dozen minutes later with a three while Brittany Cox (Winston-Salem, NC) and Rhoney capped a 9-2 run to put the hosts up 19-10. Another three by Lemons late in the first half would give Pfeiffer their largest lead during the first 20 minutes at 13, up 29-16.
For the second-straight contest, the Lady Falcons would top the 50-point mark in the second half scoring 51 en route to the 28-point win. A Cox three after a pair of Goddess Steele free throws (Charlotte, NC) extended the lead to 11 before another 15-0 run that started, continued and ended with Lemons threes put Pfeiffer up 20 with 7:36 remaining. Final threes from Lemons pushed the advantage to 31 as the guard concluded with her eight threes tying a school-record set by Angie Little back in 1988.
In addition to Lemons individual record-tying performance, Pfeiffer as a team also tied a top mark with 24 assists in the win led by Rhoneys nine. One team school-record did shatter on Wednesday night as the 16 team triples made surpassed the old mark of 14 set on four different occasions.
Lemons finished two boards shy of a double-double as did Rhoney with her 12 points and nine helpers. Cox scored 17 on the night concluding just one rebound shy of her own double-double. Lindsey Lee (Greensboro, NC) of Barber Scotia led the Sabers with 25 on the night.
Pfeiffer will be back in action one final time before the winter break traveling across town to Catawba for a Saturday matinee with the Lady Indians. Tip time is set for 2:00 p.m. with live stats and video being available through http://www.gofalconsports.com.

Starla and John Cassani, D.O. experienced unimaginable grief when their 14-month-old son, Colby, died tragically in 1993. They turned their grief into hope when they made the decision to donate his organs. In 1995, the Cassanis founded the Colby Foundation in their son's memory. The foundation is devoted to raising awareness about the importance of organ and tissue donation.
|Starla Cassani, founder of the Colby Foundation, spoke to LECOM medical students about the importance of organ donation and showing compassion during times of crisis.
The Cassanis spoke to first and second-year medical students at the Lake Erie College of Osteopathic Medicine in Erie on Thursday, March 17th and at the Lake Erie College of Osteopathic Medicine at Seton Hill on Friday, March 18th. Starla Cassani recounted the emotional story of Colby's death and their decision to donate Colby's organs so that three other people could live.
The Cassanis hope that by visiting LECOM and other osteopathic medical schools across the U.S., they can make a powerful impact on students before they become physicians. Organ donation is a topic that will likely come up at some point during their medical careers. "It is our hope that you will talk to your patients, prior to a crisis, about organ and tissue donation," Starla Cassani said. The Cassanis previously visited medical students at LECOM Bradenton on February 9th.
Starla Cassani told the students that Colby was left alone in a bathtub by a babysitter and slid under the water. The tragedy occurred while Starla and John were vacationing in the Caribbean. The Cassanis rushed home to Reno, Nev. and were able to spend a few days with Colby in a pediatric intensive care unit before he died. The couple decided to donate Colby's organs after a physician came to them and asked them if they would consider such a difficult request.
Starla Cassani said the physician who asked them about donating Colby's organs was courageous, since organ donation wasn't as common in 1993 as it is today. Many healthcare providers didn't know how to bring up the delicate subject. Today, most states have designated requestors who are trained to talk to families about organ donation during a crisis, she said.
|Susan Stuart, RN, President and CEO of the Center for Organ Recovery and Education (CORE), Starla Cassani, and John Cassani, DO, founders of the Colby Foundation, spoke to LECOM medical students about organ and tissue donation.
"In the midst of my worst nightmare, I was given some hope," Starla Cassani told the students. "I was given a little bit of control." The decision to donate Colby's organs gave the Cassanis some comfort. In their time of grief, they wanted to help others. "Colby was a hero. He got to save three people's lives."
Colby's liver went to a two-year-old girl in Sacramento, Calif., his kidneys were donated to a 27-year-old man from Pittsburgh, Pa., and his heart was transplanted into a five-month old boy named Brayden from Grand Junction, Colo. The Cassanis met Brayden when he was three years old, and have visited with him and his family on many occasions since then.
LECOM students were touched by the Cassanis' story and say it put a personal touch on the topic of organ donation. "As soon as she started speaking, the entire lecture hall went silent. We were just drawn to her story," said second-year medical student Tracy Espiritu. "She gave us another viewpoint for us to understand what our patients and their families may be going through."
LECOM students also heard from Susan Stuart, R.N., President and C.E.O. of the Center for Organ Recovery and Education (CORE), and Edward Faber, D.O., LECOM Class of 2003. Dr. Faber performs bone marrow transplants for cancer patients at the University of Nebraska Medical Center in Omaha, Neb., where he also serves as an assistant professor of oncology and hematology.
|Edward Faber, DO, a member of the LECOM Class of 2003, talked to LECOM medical students about bone marrow transplants and how they can help cancer patients.
"The students will be involved with transplant patients at some point in their medical careers," Dr. Faber said. "A lot of times when I see patients for an initial evaluation, the patients will go back and schedule an appointment with their primary care doctor and ask them for their opinion." Dr. Faber said he always calls a patient's family physician, in addition to their oncologist when he's considering bone marrow transplants, which involves infusing stem cells into bone marrow.
Compassion is also something the Cassanis hope that students will remember from their presentation. Starla Cassani said the liver transplant surgeon took the time to talk to the Cassanis and respond to their concerns, which put them at ease. "That little bit of compassion went so far and that's what physicians need to know," Starla Cassani said. "That bedside manner. A little bit of compassion. It makes a world of difference. It can change someone's life."
The Lake Erie College of Osteopathic Medicine and LECOM School of Pharmacy offer innovative and affordable education in osteopathic medicine and pharmacy. From campuses in Erie, Pennsylvania, Greensburg, Pennsylvania and Bradenton, Florida, LECOM provides student-centered pathways to prepare the next generation of healthcare professionals. Prepare yourself for medicine as your life's profession.

To blend with the design concept for the Maldives stand at WTM 2012, we are planning to allocate a special space within the stand to promote the wellness tourism segment which is one of the most promising niche markets in the tourism industry today. The focus would be to attract more visitors to the Maldives stand by giving them the opportunity to seek tranquil refuge for a few minutes from the hustle and bustle of WTM itself to de-stress, relax, revitalise and energise the senses.
In this regard, we are pleased to invite the registered co-exhibitors of Maldives at WTM to send in proposals. The opportunity will be given based on first come first serve basis depending on the details of the services/proposal.
Details are as follows;
> The entire process should be convenient and quick (5-10 minutes)
> E.g.: Reflex-Point Foot Massage, Energizing Chair massage, Head Massage or any combination of these treatments.
> Treatments that do not require the use of massage oils nor require customers to disrobe
> Create ambience that is conducive to relaxation and re-vitalization of the senses via aromatherapy oils and burners.
> Soothing music, soft lighting, a pleasant aroma and a sense of overall "stillness" provides customers with a tranquil refuge from the city's hustle & bustle.
> Opportunity to promote individual spa brand name via products and logo on shirt of and give-aways.
Requirements from the party:
> The service should be provided free of charge
> Equipment (1 massage chair will be provided by Stand Designers)
> Towels
> Oils
> Candles
> Props (in association with consultation from the stand designers)

When I received it as a gift, I didn't anticipate just how much I would use my new 8G iPod touch (a.k.a., iTouch). Within a short time, it would become indispensable in my professional and personal life, but first I had to scale a mountainous setup procedure.
Overcoming activation headaches
For starters, I had to activate it using the most recent version of iTunes. It's pretty ingenious of Apple to require activation via iTunes. You have to set up an account and give them your credit card info. This makes it very easy to impulse-buy music, TV shows, movies, apps, and more. It creates a virtual pipeline from your bank account to Apple's!

Apple's 'Reminders' app comes preloaded with iOS 6. This app includes a lot of useful features, including the ability to be reminded of tasks when you arrive at a location. For example, let's say you have a gift card to your favorite retail location or coffee shop but each time you go there you forget to use the gift card. You could create a reminder so that when you arrive at the location, you'll get a notification that you need to use the gift card. Here's how to create a location-based reminder:
To begin, tap the '+' button in the Reminders app. This will start a new reminder.
Give your reminder a title. For the purposes of this example, we're going to remind ourselves to use that Best Buy gift card we have.
The app will default to your current location. For more options, tap the '>' button and we'll be able to add a custom address.
In the 'Enter an Address…' field, we'll input the desired address. In this case, I want to be reminded to use the gift card at the Best Buy located at 5181 S State St. in Murray, Utah. When I finish entering the address, I'll tap the 'Details' arrow on the top of the screen and I'll be taken back to the Reminders Details screen.
To save your reminder, just tap 'Done' at the top of the screen. Before you save, make sure the reminder is set to 'When I Arrive.'

The bones, after an extended spell in rehab, are back and predicting carnage for those yesterday's heroes, who on Saturday will parade as a World XV.
Bob Dwyer's all-star European club XV, at least that's the media spin, is really a combination of some great players who are long past their sell by date and some players who never quite cracked the great descriptive.
You only had to look at the World XV's schedule to know that they're here for the golf, the golf and the golf. They've been living it up at Sun City all week and their liver has taken more of a pounding than their calves. They've partied more than they've tried and rightly so when you consider the tradition of these World XV teams.
The aim in putting together such a team is simple. Pick name players, who inspire thoughts of greatness because of their past exploits. But make sure these players are exactly that — past players. No local team invites a World XV with the capacity to embarrass the home team.
The Boks will get just what they need prior to the two-test series against Scotland, which is a decent workout. They'll be forced to make a few tackles, they'll get to play expansive footie and they'll score big on the field. The World XV will score bigger off the field, which means both teams leave Johannesburg victorious.
The five Kiwis will have to be monitored afterwards and it would be wise to ensure no handbags are left within the reach of this quintet. But the Carlos Spencer and Justin Marshall-inspired Kiwis will probably prove more of a nuisance in the pub afterwards than they will do on the field.
Individually, there are some in the World XV who will give it horns, but collectively they will be unable to find the structure needed to be successful against an established international team.
The Boks will play with the greater structure and purpose because they are the ones with everything to lose. The World XV have nothing to prove to anybody and nothing to gain from the match.
The greatest beneficiary is the South African Rugby Players Association. Had they had half a commercial brain cell they would have dropped all the ticket prices to R150 and ensured they got 60 000 to the game. Instead they will be lucky to get 40 000 at what they're asking. The former would have given them more dollars in the kitty.
It is ironic, though, how they now have no problem with ticket prices (as they are the ones who'll see the cash), just like they have no problem with an additional match (as they are the ones to benefit). Cash … it's a killer to the morality of SARPA.
But I digress.
The Boks, despite fielding a second-string pack, have put out their first choice back division (with the exception of Bryan Habana) and they will win comfortably enough. Of more interest than the scoreline will be Ruan Pienaar's first introduction to the international arena, although he would have played tougher matches in this year's Super 14.
For the record, the bones have picked a high scoring match, with the Boks to triumph 55-30.

I think this is a great posting, especially for those green toddlers out there who still dive back into consumerism. Any little bit of help and guidance they can get is awesome!
February 12, 2008 at 8:46 pm
Me too – except instead of being anti-consumerism I'm anti-gender-dichotomies. Why split the goodies up between boys and girls? Everyone loves most of this stuff!
February 12, 2008 at 2:44 pm
Although I absolutely apprciate the green gagdetry I must say, I am a bit dissappointed that you would support the consumerism that surrounds hollidays like Valentine's Day by suggesting we buy buy buy something for our sweetie. I do enjoy your site completely, my comments are only constructive criticism.
February 12, 2008 at 10:08 am
Or you could be REALLY GREEN and not celebrate Valentine's Day!

Snowmaking Update
November 8, 2013 8:17am snowmakingwinteropeninghome
It's about to go down. Snowmaking is slated to start November 15th.
Don't know about you, but we're really excited for the 13/14 season to get started at Q Burke and that excitement is going to reach a whole new level once we start to fire up the snow guns. If Mother Nature cooperates, we're targeting November 15th to get going. We've been showing the love to our snowmaking system recently - last year we added more guns. This year? More power. Thanks to the recent approval of the interruptible service tariff by the Vermont Public Service Board in conjunction with the Lyndonville Electric Department, we've doubled our available power for snowmaking. We''ll spare you all the nuts and bolts details, but the bottom line is that more power + more guns = more snow. And we don't think we need to tell you that more snow is awesome.

Comments about Cane Creek Angleset Headset ZS49:
I purchased the CC ZS49 Angleset to slacken the head angle on my GT Ruckus 7. This headset is a fine product as are all of CC's headsets. Machining and attention to detail and design are nothing short of excellent. As far as installation, if you follow the directions and be sure to grease all parts before install, it should not be any problem. CC has instructional videos for install on their site if needed. I have not had any issues with this product. I will continue to use Cane Creek headsets exclusively. Fast shipping too.

Comments about Cane Creek Angleset Headset ZS49:
I have an angleset on my Sunday. I have a 1.5 degree top cup with a .5 degree bottom cup bringing my head angle to about 62.5 degrees. This headset was easy to install, but took some extra time and attention to detail to ensure the cups were aligned properly. I greased all the complonents liberally and have not experienced any creaking or noise from the headset. The only downside is the price, which is not that much more expensive than a Chris King, but I feel the quality is on par with that brand.
