BANNER ELK, N.C. - Alexis Stallard paced the Falcons offensively for the second straight game, but the Pfeiffer women's basketball team (2-11, 1-4 CC) fell in a close contest at Lees-McRae (6-3, 3-2) by a final score of 57-53. Stallard scored 18 points and hit three shots from long distance but the Bobcats outscored Pfeiffer 36-25 in the second half to grab the victory.
Lauren Lewis scored 14 points for Lees-McRae and Kerri Belcher added 13. Lewis scored 12 points in the second half as the Bobcats hit 50 percent of their second half field goals to complete the comeback.
Carter Williams added 12 points for Pfeiffer to go with four rebounds and three assists. Pfeiffer was without the Conference Carolinas leading shot blocker in Lauren White, forcing Head Coach Roy Dow to go with a smaller lineup. Amy Steller helped to offset the loss of White as she grabbed a game-high eight rebounds, including three offensive boards.
Pfeiffer's defense dominated the first 20 minutes as they held Lees-McRae to 29.6 shooting from the field and a 0-for-8 performance from behind the arc. Pfeiffer forced 10 first half turnovers and a three point basket by Hollie Boggs with four seconds to go gave Pfeiffer a 28-21 lead going into the break.
The second half belonged to Lewis and the Bobcats. Lewis shook off a 1-for-7 shooting line in the first half and went 4-for-5 from three point range in the second half. Each team committed 12 second half turnovers but the Bobcats overcame their turnovers with long range shooting, going 5-for-8 in the final 20 minutes.
Pfeiffer's seven point lead was erased with a 14-6 run to start the half by Lees-McRae. The Bobcats pushed the lead to 45-40, their largest of the second half, with 8:06 to play. Stallard responded with back-to-back three's to give Pfeiffer a 46-45 lead. After a pair of Lees-McRae free throws, Williams buried a three to go ahead 49-47. However, Lewis responded with a three of her own to reclaim the lead. Carlisha Holivay knocked down a jumper to grab a 51-50 lead for the Falcons with just over four minutes to go. However, Lees-McRae outscored Pfeiffer 7-2 the rest of the way and Lewis' last three at the 1:06 mark put the Falcons away.
Pfeiffer returns to action on Wednesday evening when they host North Greenville at 5:30 p.m.

Product Category Description:
Stomacher lab blenders offer fast, reliable blending and homogenizing of laboratory samples through their unique action by which paddles apply pressure to a sample within a sterile, disposable bag. Contents are blended and homogenized, and deep-seated organisms are effectively washed out. Laboratory samples can be collected, transported, processed, and disposed of without handling.
Stomacher 400C: Features a paddle design that produces homogenization through a combination of crushing and stirring. When the door is closed, curved paddles, an island baffle inside the door chamber, and round-bottom Stomacher lab blender bags mold the bag contents into a tubular ring. During operation the paddles crush the sample and circulate the suspended debris and diluent. This model's features also include one-touch, user-programmable time and speed functions, three paddle speeds, variable time settings from 1 second to 99 minutes and 59 seconds, and auto-run for hands-free operation. Dimensions: 33.7Wx33.7Dx27.9Hcm (131/4x131/4x11").
Stomacher 80 Biomaster: Designed to be space-saving and easily fits inside of a safety cabinet. It has three paddle speeds and three time settings plus continuous cycle. Dimensions: 29.2Wx32.3Dx19.1Hcm (111/2x1223/32x71/2").
Stomacher 3500, 3500W, and 3500T: Designed for blending large volumes. The Stomacher 3500 features three paddle speeds and three time settings plus continuous cycle, while the Stomacher 3500W includes these features as well as a large blending area for bulky water filters. The Stomacher 3500T also offers the features of the Stomacher 3500, as well as a heating panel control for 20°C to 50°C, located in the door. Dimensions for the 3500 and 3500W: 48.3Wx48.3Dx44.5Hcm (19x19x171/2"). Dimensions for the 3500T: 58.9Wx68.1Dx58.9Hcm (237/32x2613/16x237/32").
All models listed above feature microprocessor controls, a safety interlock on the stainless steel front door and closing mechanism, stainless steel beater paddles, and an enameled housing made of cast aluminum alloy.
Stomacher sample bags are designed with the resiliency necessary to withstand the paddle action of the Stomacher lab blenders. Sterile, polyethylene bags are 65µm (2.5mil) thick per layer. Standard bags, suitable for most applications, can be used with all laboratory blenders. Strainer bags, for processing gritty samples that could cause pipette blockage, and closure bags, for sample storage or to prevent sample loss, are available for use with Seward Stomacher Model 400C only.
For optimal results, use circulator bags (round-bottom style) with Seward Stomacher Model 400C and classic bags (square-bottom style) with other paddle blender models.
Ordering Information: Each unit supplied with a grounded three-wire plug and cord, instruction manual, and a sample pack of 50 standard bags (sterile, sized for specific blender). To ensure optimum blending, Seward Stomacher lab blender bags are recommended for use with Stomacher lab blenders.

Offenses Explode as Baseball Splits Saturday Double Dip with Post
March 13, 2010
MISENHEIMER, N.C. Both Post and Pfeiffer brought the heavy artillery on Saturday afternoon as each team scored a decisive victory splitting a non-conference baseball doubleheader on Saturday afternoon at Joe Ferebee Field. Winning the opener 17-8, the Eagles moved to 5-8 on the year while the Falcons, notching a 16-3 win in the nightcap, advance to 13-15 on the season.
GAME ONE: Post 17, Pfeiffer 8
Each team traded a pair of runs early as Pfeiffer used RBI-singles from Will Davis (New London, NC) and Eric Shoemaker (Huntersville, NC) in the first, while Post used a run-scoring single by Jose Reyes (Yonkers, NY) and groundout by Todd Blair (Ajax, ONTARIO) in the third.
Post would score in every frame from the third on beginning with six in the fourth. Ralph Diegeuz (Miami, FL) began with a solo shot to right-center before Jared Maddox (Arlington, TX) drew a bases-loaded walk. Blair later came up with the biggest hit of the inning with a two-run single to center. Herold Mejia (Miami, FL) and Doug Wells (Staten Island, NY) had the other RBI in the frame.
Mejia delivered again in the fifth with a two-run single to left while Maddox and Reyes each tallied another RBI with singles in the Post sixth. A five-run seventh for the Falcons saw Jesse Dunn (Easley, SC) register a two-run single to left in front of a pair of RBI-singles by Davis and Shoemaker. Mejia would grab his fourth RBI in the eighth while Wells helped end it with a one-out sacrifice fly.
GAME TWO: Pfeiffer 16, Post 3
The Falcons scored three in the second to snag a two-run lead on a Shoemaker two-run blast to center after a throwing error by the Eagles. Post tied it in the third with an RBI double from Travis Locascio (Massapequa, NY) and RBI-single from Blair, before Pfeiffer went on to score a dozen more runs in the fourth, fifth and sixth.
Myles Pearl (High Point, NC) and Zack Pou (Stanley, NC) each had run-scoring singles in the fourth while five different Falcons notched RBI in the seven-run fifth with two runs scoring on another Post error. Scoring for the afternoon wrapped up in the sixth on a solo dinger by Dunn, pinch-hit RBI-double by Hunter Boehme (Winston-Salem, NC) and groundout off the bat of Preston Lyon (Gastonia, NC).
Luke Wilhelm (Lexington, NC) earned the win in relief tossing 4.2 innings allowing just two hits with 10 strikeouts. Josh Strickland (Liberty, NC) went 3-for-3 with a pair of RBI and run scored in the nightcap.
Pfeiffer returns home on Tuesday to take on nationally-ranked Francis Marion. First-pitch with the Patriots is set for 2:30 p.m.

The Noveske RifleWorks N4 300 Blackout rifle system is a semi-auto action rifle with a 16" stainless steel barrel and free floated Lo-Pro 11 inch handguard with 1913 rails. Rifle also features the MUR forged Vltor upper reciever and a forged Gen II lower. Rifle comes with a flip-up front and rear sights and a adjustable Vltor Imod Carbine stock.
Optional Barrel Fluting and Cerakote finish available. Rifle includes one 30-round magazine.
Noveske Rifleworks LLC is a small business in Grants Pass, Oregon devoted to improving the modern battle rifle. Our focus is to manufacture and provide a combat ready weapon capable of precision accuracy with 100% reliability. It is their honor to provide these tools to our Nation in these historic times. They're proud to offer the finest AR variant to date, the N4. Our quality control procedures, both in manufacture and assembly, insure that you have access to a weapon that offers you a tactical advantage when needed on the streets or on the battlefield. Their rifles are available in several configurations for mission specific requirements.
Noveski Stainless barrels are made to fill a precision role while retaining flawless function. Retaining accuracy and reliability is a complicated balance in that the chamber needs to be slightly modified from the NATO specifications to improve bullet hook-up in the throat, while keeping to functional properties of the NATO body dimensions. The result is in their proprietary Noveske chambering. The steel used is a type of 416r and hardened to about 30 HRC prior to any machining. These barrels are button rifles with there proprietary PT buttons. This rifling profile differs from that in the chrome lined barrel line in that the lands have a slightly more trapezoidal shape. This design and the type of stainless used helps the lead edge of the rifling from eroding as fast as it might with conventional rifling, and the barrels tend to outlast others. For use in any precision application, we recommended the stainless barrel for its edge in accuracy and excellent reliability.

Sunday Morning: The History of 'My Sharona' – How One Song Doomed The Knack
Loathed by critics and written off as a novelty act, the Knack was, in fact, a genuine rock and roll band. Of course, as the '70s drew to a close, the Knack was also simply unavoidable. Eventually that over saturation would drown them, but for a brief shining moment, they were on top.
Contrary to legend, however, they were no overnight success story.
The Los Angeles music scene of the late '70s was overflowing with energy, attitude and great bands. Things were moving fast, and by 1978, the landscape of punk outfits like the Germs, the Bags and the Weirdos was starting to give way to the likes of the Plimsouls, the Beat and, of course, the Knack.
In the early part of the decade, the late guitarist/vocalist Doug Fieger fronted a band called Sky that recorded two albums for RCA. Those albums went nowhere, and by 1974, the group had fallen apart. While his former bandmates moved back home to Detroit, Fieger decided to stay in Los Angeles. Over the next few years, he would meet like minded, seasoned musicians who would become the Knack — including drummer Bruce Gary, bassist Prescott Niles and guitarist Berton Averre. In 1977, Fieger decided to record some new music and called them in to lend a hand. Those demos failed to gain ground, but with the players in place, the Knack was born.
Throughout '78, the Knack endlessly played the LA club scene, with triumphant residences at the Whisky and the Troubadour. Eventually, record companies came calling. "I was aware of them, as everybody else in L.A. was," said producer Mike Chapman in the documentary 'Getting The Knack,' "because there was lines of kids around the block to go see them at their shows." The large fan base they had built up happened to include people like Tom Petty, Stephen Stills and Bruce Springsteen, all of whom would jam with the Knack at the Troubadour. "Bruce Springsteen gets up on stage with us on a Friday night, and on Monday, we have 14 record offers," Fieger memorably quipped.
With the offers rolling in, the band chose Capitol Records. "I was sold the first time I saw them," said Bruce Ravid, the man who signed them. Capitol was, of course, the home of the Beatles, and comparisons would dog the Knack from there forward. Ironically, Capitol had previously signed another band called the Knack in 1967; this group released a couple of singles, but they had nothing to do with Fieger and company.
In early 1979, the band entered the studio with producer Mike Chapman to begin work on their debut. 'Get The Knack' was wrapped up in less than two weeks. "I don't think we did two takes on any song, except for 'Maybe Tonight,'" Fieger once said. "What we had to do was make the record quickly," added Chapman, "because to labor over it would have taken that spontaneity out of it." Chapman's production here is, as always, first class.
Once released, it didn't take long for radio stations to zero in on 'My Sharona.' The insistent drum beat alone was one big hook, but once the guitar riff moves in, the track evolves into a massive ear worm. Soon, 'My Sharona' was emanating from nearly every radio across America. It hit the top of the Billboard charts in the summer of 1979 and stayed there six straight weeks, going gold in just thirteen days. The album followed suit, holding Billboard's top spot for five weeks until Led Zeppelin's 'In Through The Out Door' finally knocked it off.
Familiarity, as it will, bred contempt. 'My Sharona' came to be seen as a novelty tune of sorts. Given another listen, however, it emerges as one of the sharpest rock and roll records ever — from the riff to the lyric to the production. Averre is certainly one of the most underrated lead guitarists of the era, and his solo is nothing short of stunning. (Sharona, by the way, was indeed an actual person, and the object of Fieger's very real desires.)
Elsewhere, 'Get the Knack' is full of top shelf, hook-laden rockers. 'Let Me Out' remains one of the most powerful album openers ever, while 'Your Number or Your Name' and 'Oh Tara' are pure pop gold, recalling mid-'60s Hollies and Kinks. 'She's So Selfish' and 'Good Girls Don't,' the album's second single, were both full of words that wouldn't fly past radio censors. After reworking a line, the Knack saw 'Good Girls Don't' land just shy of the Top 10.
'Maybe Tonight' steps away from the hard-edged template, arriving as a beautiful ballad with slightly psychedelic ornamentation. A revved-up take on the Buddy Holly classic 'Heartbeat' was a perfect fit here, alongside their own 'That's What the Little Girls Do.' 'Frustrated' ends the album on another lusty note, powered by a final massive guitar riff and the fantastic Bruce Gary's powerhouse drums.
Still, the Knack's seemingly instant rise to the top led some critics to question their authenticity, sincerity, and motives. The assumption was that they were some sort of manufactured group, something meant to echo the Beatles and nothing more. Fieger later admitted to the Fab Four's influence on the Knack, but said the overt musical references were "tongue in cheek. It wasn't meant to be taken seriously." Few knew how long the Knack had paid its dues, or just how little promotion was behind their huge debut. "It's funny, people have accused the Knack of being this big hype and that the record company hyped the band," Fieger once said. "I was told at the time by Capitol Records that they spent $50,000 promoting 'Get The Knack' — total."
Meanwhile, even as radio overkill led to general listener fatigue with the Knack, other labels were hoping to leverage their success. "The Knack didn't capitalize on a movement, they created a movement," rock critic Ethan Barborka said. "The whole record industry descended on L.A. after they released 'Get The Knack' to find other bands that would be 'the next Knack.'"
Hoping to take back a lost sense of mystique, management decided not have the Knack give interviews — a move that backfired horribly. "The manager at the time, I'll excuse him for his innocence, his non-expertise, and his being in way over his head," Niles said. "However, his decisions killed us, and as a result, it pissed a lot of people off." A 'Knuke the Knack' campaign was started by San Francisco artist Hugh Brown. "They were so over hyped, I thought I'll do something that's kind of obnoxious and kind of funny," Brown said in the 'Getting The Knack' documentary. "Then it just snowballed."
There grew a sense that the Knack was arrogant, while some criticized the group as misogynistic because of an abundance of lust-filled lyrics. For others, 'Get The Knack' was seen as the watered-down conclusion of the fading punk movement from a few years earlier, a safe and sanitized version of something that had recently revitalized rock. But there was more to the Knack than that, and even Sex Pistols guitarist Steve Jones was a genuine fan. "I've literally played that album a million times, but I couldn't really tell people — 'cause it was kind of uncool, being from the Sex Pistols, and that whole era," Jones said in 'Getting The Knack.' "I loved that album. I still have a copy of it!"
Even today, 'My Sharona' — despite becoming 1979′s biggest single, inspires an impressive range of emotions — from love and lust to hatred and parody. Weird Al Yankovic's novelty debut 'My Bologna' put him on the map, while Cheech and Chong's send up appeared in 'Next Movie' as 'My Scrotum.'
The Knack never recovered from the backlash. "How could it have changed so much that we were 'the glorious, the wonderful Knack' one minute, and we were this horrible, sell out, commercial bullshit hype the next minute?" Fieger later mused. "It made me angry."
'But the Little Girls Understand,' released in 1980, struggled to No. 15, and the Knack never had another album go higher than No. 53. Fieger died in 2010, after struggling with both brain and lung cancer.

Need programs moved to new Mac, who should I have do it?
by Lee Koo (ADMIN) - 9/14/12 4:51 PM
Need programs moved to new Mac, who should I have do it?
I would appreciate your suggestion. I'm a self-employed
advertiser/graphic artist. I am at the point where I have to upgrade
my Apple Mac G5. But...I'm also not sure of the best way to transfer
the few apps that I have on my Mac G5 that I "downloaded" over the
years; all other info I have backed up on CDs. Apple says it'll move
all the info for $100 or should I have someone else do it so that I
can be more careful and safe on what is kept? Can I count on Apple? Or
is this something I can even do myself? What is your opinion? Thank
you for your help.

While the Glenwood-Kearsney clash steals the KZN headlines this week, there will be another exciting game between Michaelhouse and Maritzburg College. The latter will be looking to bounce back after their defeat to KES last weekend, but it will be a tough challenge as the hosts have only lost one match all year.
DHS entertain St Charles and will be desperate for victory, while Hilton travel to Northwood.

The Lake Erie College of Osteopathic Medicine School of Pharmacy welcomed distinguished guest speaker Curt D. Furberg, M.D., Ph.D., on Nov. 27. Dr. Furberg is a Professor of Public Health Sciences at the Wake Forest University of Medicine, where he started the Center for Research and Biometry.
Dr. Furberg addressed evidence-based medicine, the FDA and drug safety with an audience that included all first- and second-year pharmacy students and several third-year students on clinical rotation.
|Dr. Curt Furberg discusses
evidence-based medicine
with LECOM pharmacy
"The discussion on evidence-based medicine seeks to find reasons why patients aren't receiving optimal care," Dr. Furberg said. "If a patient goes to his or her physician, they have about a 50 percent chance of getting optimal treatment. The immediate question then is, 'Why aren't all patients getting the best care?'
"It turns out there are a lot of barriers," he added. "So then the question becomes, 'What can you do to improve the situation?'"
Dr. Furberg described a couple of options to make the system better, including monitoring the performance of health care professionals.
"If you let people in the departments that perform below average know that they are not doing an optimal job, that is often enough," he said. "People don't want to be below average."
Dr. Furberg is a nationally and internationally recognized cardiovascular epidemiologist with expertise in clinical trials and public health. He is a strong proponent for evidence-based medicine. His public health background provides a strong foundation for his views on drug evaluation and patient safety.
He is best known as the principal investigator for the "Anithypertensive and Lipid Lowering Treatment to Prevent Heart Attack Trial," or ALLHAT.
ALLHAT was the largest study of pharmaceutical treatments for elevated blood pressure and the second largest lipid-lowering medication trial. Researchers led by Dr. Furberg studied more than 40,000 people in a four-year period. On-going evaluation of the ALLHAT data continues to produce findings aiding the prevention of heart disease.

Reviews for Moist Pumpkin Scones
Sort By :
"If you know scones and the texture and density than you will be disappointed in this recipe! This was more of a recipe for pumpkin bread. It did more pumpkin, but put it in bread pans."
"It was just ok in my opinion. There really was not nearly enough pumpkin in the recipe. They were much more moist than your average scone but basically tasted like a wad of bread dough... Flavorless."
"I made these for my mom's birthday this morning. Followed the recipe almost exactly. And they turned out great! The pumpkin flavouring is very subtle in a good way, and they are a beautiful fall colour. Definitely a fantastic way to kick off autumn. I just hope my mom likes them as much as I do!"
"Very tasty! I added a couple of tablespoons of melted butter to the icing plus maple flavoring."
"I thought they tasted very good, but the batter was very sticky. Had to flour my knife and my board several times so it/they wouldn't stick. They puffed up very nicely, so think the next time I make them, will make the circles a little larger."

European Union
European Union
Recent Activity
Over the past year, long-standing discussions and negotiations have resulted in several new information-sharing initiatives that seek to boost security while facilitating travel for legitimate travelers.
Intermarriage is considered a test of integration: the higher the rate, the more integrated the group. Olga Nottmeyer of DIW Berlin finds that while immigrants from Turkey, by far Germany's largest immigrant group, have had low rates of intermarriage in the first generation, intermarriage rates among second-generation Turkish men are increasing.
In recent years, the European Union has come to recognize that it cannot prevent migration and that it needs a different approach to managing flows from its poorer neighbors. Jean-Pierre Cassarino of the European University Institute looks at the rationale for mobility partnerships and what they will need to be effective.
Ireland's economy and openness to labor migration from new EU Member States fueled immigration flows, including return migration, over the past few years. But the global recession has hit the country hard, and unemployment among both foreigners and Irish nationals is rising. Emma Quinn of the Economic and Social Research Institute in Dublin updates the Ireland country profile with a look at recent trends, policies, and data.
Recent immigration to the United Kingdom is larger and more diverse than at any point in its history. This updated profile examines how the global recession is affecting migration flows, the latest immigration and asylum data, and overviews of new immigration and integration policies.
Recent Activity
This final report summarizes and reflects upon the key findings of the Improving EU and U.S. Immigration Systems: Learning from Experience comparative research project undertaken by MPI and the European University Institute through a grant from the European Commission.
European dominance in U.S. immigration flows has decreased significantly since World War II, a result of economic, demographic, and policy trends on both sides of the Atlantic. Today, migration from European Union Member States to the United States, while small, is characterized by a substantial numbers of European scientists, professionals, and businesspeople.
Civil society provides a crucial link between governments and the communities they represent—infusing policy processes with grassroots knowledge to which governments may not otherwise have access. Looking at the European Union's efforts to engage with civil society in its "neighborhood," this report examines the benefits, challenges, and mechanisms to building dialogue and cooperation on migration and development.
The EU-U.S. relationship is one of the most significant partnerships among wealthy nations. Interconnections between the two on migration issues make dialogue necessary and inevitable, as each relies on each other to attain a number of policy objectives, most clearly in the case of travel and border security.
The exponential growth of international travel since the 1960s has left border management systems worldwide struggling to keep up and has exposed weaknesses in states' abilities to effectively manage their borders, especially regarding terrorist attacks, human trafficking, and illegal migration.
Drawing on experiences from Asia, Europe, North America, and the Pacific region, this report presents eight strategies that represent best practices developed by immigrant-receiving countries to increase the economic contributions of immigration.
Information and technology are centerpieces of a new border architecture that seeks to respond to the competing demands of facilitating mobility and managing cross-border risks while remaining cost-efficient and respectful of rights and privacy. This report shows how governments must approach border management systems to ensure properly balanced development.
This report details the post-9/11 programs and agreements implemented by U.S. and European governments to identify terrorists and serious transnational criminals through the collection and processing of increasing quantities of traveler data.

Don't sacrifice safety on a quick ride to the store. Blackburn makes it easy to stay safe on the road by pairing two of its top selling lights. Make sure cars can see you from front and behind with the flea front and rear light combo.
LED Fuel Gauge
The innovative LED battery fuel gauge/charging indicator is cleverly integrated into the power button of both the Flea and Super Flea lights. Now you no longer have to guess how much battery life is left, just follow the simple color code. Green = 100% - 75%; Orange = 75% - 25%; Red = 25% - 0%
Patented Magnetic Power Adjustment Found on the Flea and Scorch lights, electrical current is passed through the magnets, allowing for a compact and watertight connection. In the case of the Flea lights, it allows for mounting in both horizontal and vertical USB ports.

I would recommend magnet street to ANYONE! I literally got 5 texts from different people saying how much they liked the design and that it was a full magnet for the fridge after they got my Save the Dates. Not only was it quick, it was easy to use! The part that took the longest was me being indecisive about how I wanted it to look!
love them!
Absolutely love our save the date magnets! The final product was exactly what it looked like when I ok'ed the proofs, and they were made and shipped so much faster than I expected. Plus the box it gets delivered is adorable! Super satisfied from beginning to end.
Great 2nd try
The re-print for 150 magnets was only $10, that was lucky!
Love Love!
I am in love with our save the dates! The colors were perfect! I got free samples with the colors of my choice and customized my save the date magnent! The magnent was everything I thought it would be! Definately recommend :)
I first requested the complimentary magnet before ordering and was happy with the quick delivery. It was very much appreciated to be able to see the samples of the colors that I wanted to use, font, sizing and extras. It's great to be able to personalize everything, from font, to color, to what you even want printed on the back of certain items. When I finally placed the order, it arrived within the time frame that was estimated. It was a great, organized packaged, and I appreciated the complimentary extra prints. I would have my invites ordered already but I still can't decide on which great style to choose. But this will be our preferred vendor. Thank you so much magnetstreet.com!

|A Cautionary Tale About Oral Contraceptives and a Blood Clot for an ACH Patient
Angela Sanborn was a normal, healthy 15-year-old attending East Lake High School when she began experiencing pain in her groin area.
Because she worked out frequently at the gym, doctors at a local hospital thought the pain was merely a muscle strain. "But it got worse," she said. "Within a week, I went back to the hospital and they transferred me here to All Children's."
Angela became a patient in ACH's cutting-edge Pediatric Thrombosis Program, overseen by Dr. Neil Goldenberg, who also serves as Director of Research at All Children's Hospital Johns Hopkins Medicine. A battery of "CAT" scans and ultrasounds followed. And that's when it was discovered that Angela was suffering from a blood clot ("deep vein thrombosis" or "DVT") that was extensive throughout the lower venous system of her body - from the level of her ankle to above her kidneys. By now, her leg was purple and swollen and the pain was excruciating.
Yet the news that stunned the Sanborns was this: The clot was provoked by an oral contraceptive Angela had taken for six weeks, though she was more susceptible to DVT due to certain preexisting anatomical conditions she hadn't even been aware of until arriving at ACH JHM.
"I was shocked and nervous at first and was like, 'Oh my gosh, I'm going to have to get my leg amputated, or I may die,' " she recalled. "I was so nervous, and anxious to find out how I was going to recover." A first procedure was performed, but the clot returned. So a second procedure followed, involving a more aggressive approach with a few devices as well as clot-buster medicine and blood thinners, to eradicate the clot, performed by Dr. Evan Harris of All Children's and his Interventional Radiology team.
The multi-modal treatment was a success, leaving Angela pain free and elated.
"I'm so glad they transferred me to All Children's," she said. "When I got here, all the nurses were all so nice to me."
"Everyone has had such a great bedside manner," Karen added. "And Dr. Goldenberg is world-renowned. So we know we're in the right place."
Indeed, the Thrombosis Program at ACH JHM brings tremendous expertise in determining and monitoring the optimal intensity and duration of therapy for blood clots in children. Dr. Goldenberg is, in fact, leading an international trial to optimize the length of anti-clotting (blood "thinner") treatment in children with thrombosis (the "Kids-DOTT" trial), and is also on the forefront of efforts to determine the effectiveness and safety of clot-buster approaches in children like Angela."
Angela used a wheelchair to get around East Lake High in the final weeks of the school year and began walking on her own, wearing a compression stocking, only two days prior to her follow-up appointment in the Thrombosis Clinic. Now 16 and a high school junior, she may still have blood clots in the future and issues with veins. "We don't know what's going to happen, what her body will do," Karen said.
Dr. Goldenberg, however, expressed cautious optimism. "Our experience has been that, with careful identification of underlying risk factors for thrombosis, and addressing those factors through treatment and prevention strategies, fewer and fewer children with even severe blot clots are developing second blood clots later on."
The ordeal was a hard lesson to learn about contraceptives, but that's why both Karen and Angela are eager to share their knowledge in order to help other women.
"Blood clots have always been a potential side effect of the pill, even 30 years ago when I was on it," Karen said. "And they still haven't been able to develop the perfect one to prevent that side effect. We didn't think anything of putting Angela on the pill because I had no problems and there's been no family history whatsoever of strokes, blood clots or any type of blood disease."
Their advice: "Even though we had no family history, I would recommend that people research their family history -and research your options," Karen said. "There are different ingredients in oral contraceptives and some varieties have been reported to have higher risks of thrombosis than others. So people need to check it out and talk to the doctor about options."
Meanwhile, Angela has been steadily improving and enjoying some added attention. She has given print and TV interviews about her charter participation in iPICS, which spans the St. Petersburg and Baltimore campuses of Johns Hopkins Medicine. She even got to throw out a ceremonial first pitch at a Tampa Bay Rays game this past summer, reaching the plate admirably with a ball caught by starting pitcher Chris Archer.
She's also feeling a little stronger and taking part in more activities. "My leg is doing a lot better and I've started going to the gym more often," he said. "After the whole leg situation, I wasn't able to drive for two months but I just got my license."
In addition, she met with her school counselor after summer break and switched her schedule to take anatomy classes, "I want to be a nurse," she said. "I'm very interested in doing that and going to a college with a nursing program, I've really been inspired by the people who helped me get better."

Pair of Big Frames Sends King to 9-4 Win over Baseball; Falcons Put Season on the Line Friday vs. Erskine/Mount Olive Winner
April 26, 2012
WILSON, N.C. - Sophomore Corey Rhodes tossed a complete game and No. 4 King College blasted a pair of three-run homers to knock off No. 3 seed Pfeiffer University, 9-4, in the opening game of the 2012 Conference Carolinas Baseball Tournament hosted by Barton College and the Wilson Tobs at historic Fleming Stadium Thursday. The Tornado (28-17) will wait to play the winner of the No. 2 Belmont Abbey/No. 5 North Greenville game on Friday at 7 p.m. The Falcons (25-24) will look to avoid elimination when they play the winner of the No. 1 Mount Olive/No. 6 Erskine game on Friday at 3 p.m.
Senior Bryant Walker and junior Josh Huffman each collected two hits and went deep for the designated visitors. The Tornado outhit Pfeiffer 14-8 with sophomore Cody Snyder and freshman Stephen Mullins both totaling three base knocks.
King jumped ahead with five runs in the top of the second that featured five hits and two walks. Walker highlighted the frame with a three-run homer to straightaway center before sophomores Tyler Gaby and Snyder added consecutive run-producing base hits.
Pfeiffer began its comeback efforts in the bottom of the fourth. Senior Preston Lyon led off with a triple off the center field wall and then scored the Falcons first run on a groundout by freshman Dalton Lindley.
An RBI-double by junior Jacob Yates plated Pfeiffers second run in the fifth before the designated hosts pulled to within one with a pair in the seventh. Yates drilled a one-run triple just inside the right field line to knock in the third run and then scored after the relay throw to third missed its mark.
The Tornado pulled away with four more runs in the top of the eighth. After Synder knocked in the first run of the frame, Huffman launched a three-run shot to the left field yard.
Rhodes (9-2) scattered eight hits over nine full innings and allowed just four runs (three earned). Rhodes tossed 120 pitches but was effective with five strikeouts and zero walks.
Junior starter Tyler Ring (4-4) was tagged with the loss after giving up the five runs in the second. Ring went the first five innings before four relievers covered the final four frames.

The rotary shift knob takes a little time to get the hang of, but once you do, you will like it.
Nice not to have a shift lever in the way so you have a better view of dash and access to the console. 20 mpg highway is the real thing! I could not believe it until I got mine. Tows great too with lots of power in that 5.7 Hemi! The 8 speed tranny shifts smooth and flawlessly.

September 6, 84
Vol. iii , No. 01
Editor: Deborah Bonito '85
Management and staff of the Marian Miner Cook Athenaeum extend an enthusiastic welcome to incoming and returning students and faculty. We want to emphasize from the start that our foremost goal this year is to maximize student and faculty use of CMC's unique facility. In other words, we hope that each student and facuity member will participate in an Athenaeum event at least once a week! The building is beautiful, comfortable, and air-conditioned, and the food and service are great. Need we say more?
CMC has been endowed with a facility completely unlike that of any other United States college. Our Athenaeum is multi-roomed and its functions are multi-faceted. Activities range from regularly scheduled informal teas to dinner speakers and programs which accommodate 30-150 people to Mardi Gras Balls. Many events will be planned for students and faculty by the Athenaeum and/or by various campus clubs. However, the bonus feature is that students are encouraged--even expected--to get together on their own initiative in any number and form to use the building. Form a backgammon tourney, a soap-watching group, or invite a professor to an informal discussion. All we ask is 7 days advance notice and that the comfortable surroundings be respected in the conduct and content of the activity. No one without a shirt and shoes will be served.
Afternoon tea and sweets will be served Monday thru Friday 3:00-4:30 p.m. This relaxing activity occurs in the library and will begin Monday, September 10. May we suggest students invite faculty members to join them? No reservations required.
Sunday Brunches Extraordinaire are scheduled for the first Sunday of each month beginning October 7. Brunches consist of a lavish buffet of goodies and beverages in a semi-formal setting and do require reservations. Sign-ups are included with the announcement of events which require name and meal card information.
Fiesta California: Chicanos and Contemporary American Politics
Monday September 10, the Claremont Colleges Chicano Studies Center in conjunction with the CMC Dean of Students Office and the MMC Athenaeum will sponsor a dinner and speech by New Mexico's Governor Toney Anaya.
Dynamic speaker Governor Anaya, a prominent Chicano community leader, will speak at 8:00 p.m, on the role of the Chicano community in American politics today. There will be a reception at 6:30 p.m. followed by dinner at 7:00 p.m. Reservations for the dinner portion of the Fiesta California program must be in by Friday, September 7 at noon.
An Evening with Robert Dorian
Thursday, September 13, 1984
"Mystifies, baffles, and confounds... DIABOLICAL." That's the way the Los Angeles Herald-Examiner described clairvoyant-mentalist Robert Dorian, who will open The Athenaeum series on Thursday, September 13th. A reception at 5:30 and dinner at 6:00 will be followed by Dorian's performance. Dorian, who appears frequently at The Magic Castle in Los Angeles, has earned enthusiastic critical acclaim throughout the country for his baffling and amazing displays of mindreading. Critics have described the young mentalist as "uncanny," "incredible," and "marvelously mystifying." This promises to be a unique and highly entertaining evening. We can accommodate 150 people for Mr. Dorian's performance and will accept reservations through September 10th.
Thursday, September 20, 1984
September twentieth will be "manager's specialty" night at the Athenaeum. We have planned an authentic Oktoberfest and Herr Harald Bauer promises abundant German cuisine and music. Tickets must be ordered by September 17. Sign up now or call x8244 to make reservations.
I, Claudius
I, Claudius (1976), the popular BBC series, will be screened on successive Monday evenings from September 24 to November 5. We hope to have 40 students and faculty participate in the seven screenings. Two episodes will be screened each time, the first from 5:00-6:00 p.m., dinner will be served at 6:00, and the second episode will be screened at 7:00 p.m.
The series, which was the biggest hit in the history of BBC, stars Derek Jacobi, who has been hailed as the greatest English speaking actor of his generation. Last summer during the Olympics Arts Festival Jacobi scored a triumph in his appearances with the Royal Shakespeare Company. As I, Claudius, which was dramatized by Jack Pulman from Robert Graves's famous novel, Jacobi gives a remarkable performance as the stammering, limping Claudius who sheds his reputation as a fool, almost a court jester, to become a great emperor in a Rome filled with intrigue, decadence, and rampant ambition. Co-starring with Jacobi is Sian Philips as the scheming, ruthless, and remarkable Livia.
I, Claudius is a grandly entertaining and enriching series. Plan to sign-up for all seven evenings by September 18.

BELMONT – As children in a family of 10, Kay, Lydia and Hannah Schellenberg were quite active as children growing up in Jacksonville, Fla.
With parents who played college sports and five younger siblings, the Schellenberg sisters played whatever sport they could throughout their childhood.
Nowadays, Belmont Abbey College's volleyball program has been the biggest winner because of those pursuits, even as it took the combination of the teaching of an elementary school volleyball coach, family connections to the area and a Christmas phone call offering the chance help build a program with no winning volleyball history whatsoever to make it all happen.
Although the sisters grew up playing basketball, softball, tennis and golf, their mother Catherine Schellenberg thinks the teacher's role in identifying Kay Schellenberg's talents started the sisters on their path to Belmont Abbey.
"One of her coaches saw that Kay was pretty good at being a setter when she was in the fifth grade," said Catherine Schellenberg, who lives in Jacksonville with her husband Tom and their other five children. "Once Kay learned how to set, I think the others just sort of followed her lead."
Each of the girls first played at San Jose Catholic School until attending the Bolles School in Jacksonville that has produced several top-flight athletes over the years, including Atlanta Braves' All-Star Chipper Jones.
And while the girls clearly grew up around several sports – their father played baseball at St. Leo's and their mother played tennis at North Florida – volleyball became their favorite.
When Kay Schellenberg was a senior, she began looking for schools where should continue her career in that sport – among them St. Leo's, Winthrop, Marymount and Belmont Abbey.
"I really wanted to go to a Catholic school that had a balance between serving the church, academics and sports," Kay Schellenberg said.
But then-coach Lettie Wilkes initially told her she didn't have room on her roster for another setter.
All that changed during the holidays – or when a setter decided she wasn't returning for the 2009 season.
"Coach Wilkes called her at Christmas," Catherine Schellenberg recalls. "And it was one of the best Christmas presents we've ever gotten."
Adding to the interest in the school was that uncle Bob Schellenberg was a 1973 Belmont Abbey graduate who lived in Charlotte, aunt Anne Schellenberg Bader attended the Abbey in the 1970s and lived in Lake City, S.C., and Catherine Schellenberg had family in Rock Hill, S.C.
After Kay Schellenberg's visit, she was all set for the Abbey – even as Wilkes left to pursue a position in high school administration in Catawba County (Wilkes returned to volleyball coaching two years ago and is currently head coach at Charlotte's Queens University).
Kay Schellenberg says now that she and current seniors Morgan Kirby, Angela Jubb and Julianna Pisano agreed the school was still the right place for them.
"We were just happy we got a coach that we liked," Kay Schellenberg said.
That's exactly what happened when Mary DeJute was hired less than a month before the 2009 season began.
And after a 6-18, 6-11 finish that season, Kay Schellenberg and several other Lady Crusaders keyed a 12-game improvement to win a school-record 18 games while also having the first winning record (18-10) in school history.
How significant was that improvement?
Until the 2010 and 2011 seasons – the Abbey also won 18 games in 2011 – the Lady Cruaders had won 10 or more games only three times.
Meanwhile, Lydia Schellenberg had been recruited and added to the Abbey roster in 2011.
"I wanted the same things Kay wanted from a school," said Lydia Schellenberg, who also considered Catholic University in Baltimore and Ave Marie, Fla., before choosing the Abbey. "Plus, my sophomore year in high school I had to do a project on a college and I picked Belmont Abbey, so this was a school I was very familiar with."
Last year, Hannah Schellenberg became the third family member to choose the school.
"I went through the recruiting process, but Belmont Abbey was always in the back of my mind," Hannah Schellenberg said. "I wanted the spiritual, athletic balance that I'd seen at the college when I came to see my sisters play."
Hannah Schellenberg's decision also gave DeJute the opportunity to make history.
While the three sisters played on the Bolles High team together in 2008, they had never played on the court at the same time.
"Hannah was such a late-bloomer, she was behind them at that time," said Catherine Schellenberg of Hannah Schellenberg, who was 5-foot-2 in high school but is now 5-9.
DeJute made sure they got on the court together in a match quickly this season.
"When I recruited Lydia and Hannah, I didn't want them to feel any kind of pressure to play with their sisters," DeJute said. "We recruited both of them because we thought they could help our team win, not just because they had sisters already in our program.
"Each of them has been major contributors from the first day they got here, so it was easy to make sure they all played together once Hannah got here after Kay and Lydia."
The on-court results confirm DeJute made the right decision.
While the previous teams set a school records with 18 victories, this year has been the most successful in school history – a 19-4 overall record and 10-2 conference mark entering this weekend's final regular season home matches on Friday (Barton at 7 p.m.) and Saturday (Mount Olive at 2 p.m.).
They've been so successful the Lady Crusaders are assured of having another home match – or maybe three – when the conference tournament begins on Nov. 10.
"It's been such a blessing to play with two of my younger sisters and see all the work we've put in pay off," said Kay Schellenberg, who has four younger brothers (5, 7, 11 and 15 years old) and a younger sister (9).
Added Lydia Schellenberg: "We really click as a team and have great chemistry."
What would you expect with three of the team's top eight players coming from the same family?

This is a CRAY-1, an early example of a class of computers called "supercomputers." It was built by Cray Research, Inc. of Chippewa Falls, Wisconsin, and installed at the National Center for Atmospheric Research (NCAR) in Boulder, Colorado. Unlike most computers, it was hand-wired, and its circuits were arranged in a three-quarters circle. Both helped increase the speeds at which signals travel from one part of the computer to another. Hefty power supplies are located below each of the circuit bays, and the padding on them suggests a piece of lounge furniture.
At NCAR, the machine was used between 1977 and 1983, where it performed complex calculations involving the numerical modeling of weather phenomena. As the speeds of ordinary workstations increased over the years, it became obsolete and was donated to the Smithsonian.

MEBANE — It wasn't just the loss that left Eastern Alamance senior Ali Lamot stammering to explain Friday night's setback to Orange in the third round of the Class 3-A state playoffs.
It was the 14-13 final score and a culmination of mistakes rarely seen for a team that ended its season with a 12-2 record.
"All the turnovers, shooting ourselves in the foot on offense and then only lose by one point … just, it hurts so bad to be so close at home," Lamot said. "Such a bad game, it's such a bad, sour taste in my mouth."
Eastern Alamance committed four turnovers — three interceptions and a lost fumble by quarterback Josh Long. The Eagles were guilty of several dropped passes, low snaps and three defensive gaffes to add to the misery.
All to the dismay of coach John Kirby.
"We turned the ball over a few more times than we had been and you can't do that," Kirby said. "Third- round playoff game, you can't do that."
Eastern Alamance fought back to take a lead in the final minutes after trailing since the 9:21 mark of the first quarter. Orange quarterback Sean Motley was tackled in the end zone for a safety with 7:14 left, and Josh Jurgevich dove in for a 7-yard rushing touchdown to give the Eagles a 13-7 lead with 4:20 left.
Jurgevich's touchdown — followed by a two-point conversion — seemed to lift the sideline and the electric Mebane crowd.
But Orange was unfazed, with Motley completing a 47-yard pass and scrambling for a 20-yard touchdown on the ensuing possession.
His touchdown, the eventual game-winner, came after he dodged several Eagles. Lamot was among one of the first who had a shot at tackling Motley.
"It was a busted play and I kind of had a weird angle on him. And then at the last second, he busted up the field and I just slung off of him," Lamot said.
Those last-minute plays, along with a 52-yard touchdown pass in the first half, served as back-breakers for a defense that surrendered just 214 yards of offense.
Eastern Alamance started with the ball on Orange's 48-yard line with 2:13 left, but turned the ball over on downs when Long fielded a low snap and was tackled behind the line on fourth-and-2 with 58 seconds left.
With so many missed opportunities, Kirby still wasn't willing to wonder about what could have been.
"I think we're always going to look back and say 'What if?' … You can't do that. You can't second guess," Kirby said.
Orange limited Eagles receiver Aaron Clay, who scored four touchdowns in the first half of last week's game, to three catches for 27 yards. Malik Wilson, who set a school record with his 15th touchdown reception of the season last week, had two catches for 21 yards.
After throwing a touchdown in every game this season, Long completed 12 of 28 passes for 135 yards and three interceptions without a touchdown. He hadn't thrown three interceptions in a game this season.
The only bright spot for Eastern Alamance's offense was Jurgevich, who rushed for 118 yards on 28 carries. But even his running room was limited.
"They just fly to the ball," Jurgevich said of Orange's defense. "If one man is holding you up, they just come and make a tackle. They were a good team."
Eastern Alamancewas on the verge of being held scoreless in the first half until Zack Littell blocked a punt, setting up his offense on the Panthers' 20-yard line. Kyle Knodel converted a 35-yard field goal to send Eastern Alamance into halftime trailing 7-3.

CARSON, Calif. – Landon Donovan will be returning to the LA Galaxy next week and according to head coach Bruce Arena, the plan is for him to attend the club's White House visit next Tuesday.
Arena revealed following Thursday's training session that the club is "planning on Landon going" to the White House visit next week. LA is scheduled to visit the White House on Tuesday along with the Stanley Cup Champion LA Kings.
Although Donovan is scheduled to attend the visit, Arena admits that it will take some time for the forward to reach game fitness.
"Naturally, a player of Landon's caliber would be great to bring back into the team. We need to be patient, it's going to take some time," Arena said when asked about Donovan's integration. "You don't go from being away to stepping on the field and being ready to play and being up to the level that he left us in December. It's going to take some time and we need to be patient."
What are your thoughts on Donovan's return?

If you missed the LA Galaxy Town hall, watch the event in its entirety below.
MLS Commissioner Don Garber revealed that the league was looking for ways to soften the fixture blow on MLS clubs competiting in the CONCACAF Champions League Semifinals and on Thursday, they delivered.
The league announced on Thursday that the Galaxy's match against the Montreal Impact at The Home Depot Center, which was originally scheduled for April 6 has been moved to Oct. 16. Meanwhile, Seattle Sounders FC also saw their April 6 match against Chivas USA moved to Sept. 4.
In addition to the league match, the Galaxy's MLS Reserve League opener against the USLPro's LA Blues on April 7 at CSU-Fullerton will also be rescheduled. No date for that match has been set yet.
Seattle open their CCL semifinal series against Santos Laguna on April 3 at CenturyLink Field while the Galaxy host Monterrey on April 4 at The HDC.
CARSON, Calif. – Jose Villarreal and Jack McBean have been performing well as of late as each have scored at least one goal during the LA Galaxy's last two matches. With the teenagers in form and Robbie Keane away on international duty, it would not be a shock to see Bruce Arena opt for an all-Homegrown forward corps during Saturday's match against the Colorado Rapids.
Villarreal and McBean each bagged goals in the CONCACAF Champions League Quarterfinal second leg against C.S. Herediano, but McBean notched his second goal in five days with a late strike in Sunday's 1-1 draw against Chivas USA. The teenagers aren't the only options as Mike Magee started the MLS regular season opener against the Chicago Fire and the CCL quarterfinal first leg against Herediano up top alongside Keane.
If it is the youngsters and Magee is stationed out wide, the Galaxy attacker believes that they could cause some damage against the Rapids back line.
"I think it'd be great. I think it'd be good for them to play with each other because their confidence will be a little better," said Magee. "I know the first time that I played with Robbie, I was a bit intimidated and I'm sure Jose and Jack were as well. With them together, hopefully they can link up and build confidence. Knowing that, I have to do a better job of getting up there [from midfield] and instill a little confidence in them."
Regardless of who steps in for Keane, Magee feels that any of the Galaxy's forwards will be able to fill the captain's shoes.
"Obviously, those are some big shoes to fill and he's a guy that we rely on to score goals and create chances. Whether it's the youngsters or myself or a combination of one of them and me, we'll be fine," said Magee. "Obviously Jack and Jose have done well to score goals and I have as well, so they deserve minutes, but we'll be fine either way."
Do you think a McBean and Villarreal forward partnership can succeed? Or would you rather see Magee with one of the youngsters?
Share your thoughts below.
Speaking to ESPN The Magazine reporter Doug McIntyre, LA Galaxy head coach Bruce Arena touched on a number of topics including the Galaxy, the U.S. national team, those in the U.S. who don't watch MLS, and a host of other topics.
Perhaps Arena's best Galaxy related quote is regarding LA's bid for a third straight MLS Cup title.
"I don't think the league would be happy," Arena told ESPN The Magazine. "The league's plan is to not have any club be particularly good for an extended period of time. That's the basis of the single entity [ownership structure], to bring about parity. It would be good for our organization, but that's not our focus"
Read all of Arena's comments in the story here.
More Notes are below...
*Arena's comments come after Brian Straus' sensational piece in The Sporting News about the discontent with U.S. head coach Jurgen Klinsmann.
*Michael Bradley addressed the story on Wednesday describing criticism against Klinsmann as "shameful."
*Clint Dempsey will serve as the U.S. captain for both upcoming World Cup Qualifiers against Costa Rica and Mexico.
*Former Galaxy goalkeeper Josh Saunders will make his Real Salt Lake debut this week with RSL's number one goalkeeper Nick Rimando away on international duty.
CARSON, Calif. – LA Galaxy defender Oscar Sorto was not a member of the U.S. U-20 team that qualified for the U-20 World Cup in Turkey by way of last month's U-20 CONCACAF Championship, but his dream of heading to Turkey lives on.
U.S. U-20 head coach Tab Ramos called the 18-year-old for two training camps, the first in December in Florida as well as a week-long camp in Puebla, Mexico in January, but did not name Sorto to the 20-man roster for the U-20 CONCACAF Championship. But if the call from Ramos does not come, Sorto has other options as he could also suit up for El Salvador, who also qualified for U-20 World Cup.
The nation of his parents' birth has been aggressive in their recruiting of the Galaxy Homegrown defender, but Sorto remains interested in joining the U.S. set up.
"They were sending me emails, but Tab Ramos sent me a message that he was going to call me up for April's camp so I'm going to just wait on El Salvador to see if Ramos takes me to the World Cup," said Sorto. "Right now, I'm just waiting for the U.S. call. El Salvador was on me and I didn't want to say yes to them and no to the U.S. so that's why I was being patient for them to call me."
As he waits for his chance with the U-20's Sorto believes he is continuing his improvement on a daily basis with the Galaxy.
"Right now, I feel like I'm improving, getting better and listening to every coach," said Sorto. "Just listening to them is helping me become a better player."
CARSON, Calif. –This could be a huge week for LA Galaxy forward Chandler Hoffman.
Since being acquired from the Philadelphia Union on March 1, the 2012 MLS SuperDraft First Round draft pick has yet to make an appearance for the Galaxy. However, with captain Robbie Keane away on international duty, Hoffman has an outside shot of filling in for the Irish forward.
Jack McBean, Jose Villarreal and Mike Magee appear to be the front runners to man the forward position for Saturday's match against the Colorado Rapids, but Hoffman is looking to state his case to head coach Bruce Arena.
"There's definitely an opening this week with Robbie gone on international duty and Omar [Gonzalez] gone as well. I'm trying to train as hard as I can and try to prove that I deserve a chance on the field," said Hoffman. "I feel ready, I've been here two and a half weeks now and I've kind of got used to how the club works and how guys go about preparing for games. I feel like I'm ready to step up if called upon."
Hoffman admits that while there were initial jitters when he joined the Galaxy, but after spending the past several weeks integrating himself in the squad, he feels ready to contribute.
"I've been staying after training whenever possible to work on finishing and working on whatever I can to get better and try to learn from Robbie and Mike," said Hoffman, who admits that he has placed close attention to Keane's training habits. "Anything that I can pick up, I want to incorporate in my game and help this team get victories."
The LA Galaxy will host a Online Town Hall with LA Galaxy head coach Bruce Arena and club President Chris Klein on Thursday from 1-2 PT.
Time Warner Cable SportsNet reporter Kelli Tennant will MC the event and fans can send in questions either on the Galaxy website or on Twitter using the hashtag #GalaxyTownhall
CARSON, Calif. – Jose Villarreal will have plenty of responsibility on his shoulders during the LA Galaxy's next match on Saturday against the Colorado Rapids.
With Robbie Keane away on international duty with Ireland, Villarreal will have a new forward partner as LA looks to rebound from a disappointing 1-1 draw to Chivas USA last Sunday. The two most likely options to partner alongside Villarreal up top are Mike Magee and Jack McBean while Chandler Hoffman and Charlie Rugg are also a possibility for head coach Bruce Arena.
While Villarreal admits that the Galaxy will miss Keane's leadership, he has given a vote of confidence to whoever steps in up top.
"Mike is a player like Robbie. He's very smart and creative around the box and it'd be fun to pair up with him," said Villarreal. "But if not and it is Jack, well, I know him pretty well because we played with each other in the academy. It'll be pretty crazy if we started together because it'd be two Academy players starting with the first team so it'd be fun."
Villarreal and the Galaxy will face a new challenge in a technical Colorado team that is a far cry from the overly physical Chivas USA side that played LA to a 1-1 draw. During the SuperClasico, Villarreal was a frequent target of the Rojiblancos' defenders as the 19-year-old forward was fouled three times in the "brutal" draw.
"It was physical. There were some dirty plays here and there. That's how Clásicos are and that's how it is going to be whenever we play Chivas or San Jose or D.C. United," said Villarreal. "It was a little brutal, I guess you can say, but it's just part of it. In every Clásico across the world, whether it was America vs. Chivas de Guadalajara or Real Madrid vs. FC Barcelona, it's just part of the game."
As Villarreal ahead to an active year that will include a stint at the U-20 World Cup in Turkey as well as commitments in MLS and CONCACAF Champions League, the rough play could be a learning experience.
"It was like when we played Metapán [in the CONCACAF Champions League]. It was one of those games that was just more physical than technical, but that's just the way that some games are," said Villarreal. "It makes you learn since I'm just starting my career and it helps me adjust to different teams and how they play. It was definitely a learning experience."
CARSON, Calif. – Sean Franklin is well-aware that he deserved a yellow card for a challenge on Chivas USA Josue Soto in the first half of Sunday's 1-1 SuperClasico draw, but the Galaxy defender insists that there was no malice in the challenge.
In an interview with LA Galaxy Insider, Franklin described the play and admitted that he had no malicious intent with his foul that saw referee Ricardo Salazar issue a yellow card to the right midfielder.
"I spoke to Bruce a little bit about it' and he said '[Disciplinary Committee] are kind of looking at it, but it seems that you made a play for the ball and went through the guy,'' said Franklin. "Everyone knows me; I'm not that kind of player to just be dirty. The ball kind of checked up and he didn't go for it. As soon as I committed my foot up that's when he leaned in. I did hit his chest and deservedly it was a yellow card, some might say a red, but my intention was not to be malicious and just kick the guy."
The exact verbiage from the league's Disciplinary Summary when it comes to issuing a suspension is as follows: The play in question is, in the unanimous opinion of the Committee from all available video evidence, a clear and unequivocal red card; And the play in question is of an egregious or reckless nature, such that the Committee must act to protect player safety or the integrity or the game.
Last year, the Galaxy had two players suspended by the Disciplinary Committee for actions in which they were shown a yellow. Michael Stephens had a yellow card caution turned into one-game suspension during a May 26 match against the Houston Dynamo while Magee was given a one-game suspension for throwing the ball at a referee in the same match.
The Disciplinary Committee also added games for Hector Jimenez's red card offense during a May 23rd against the San Jose Earthquakes and David Beckham for actions during a June 30th game also against San Jose. Beckham missed a July 4 match against the Philadelphia Union with yellow card accumulation due to the foul and saw himself suspended for the following match against the Chicago Fire on July 8.
Interestingly enough, Magee, Jimenez, and Stephens' suspensions coincided and all three were unavailable for June 17 game against Portland Timbers, a match that ended in a 1-0 Galaxy victory.
Any decision remains out of Franklin's hands, but currently the right back is focused on Saturday's match against the Colorado Rapids.
"I'm assuming with Omar [Gonzalez] being out, I can imagine A.J.[DeLaGarza] and Leonardo being in there [at central defense] and myself at right back and Todd [Dunivant] at left back," said Franklin. "I don't think much will change, but we'll see how this week goes and we'll see what Bruce's plan is for this week's game against Colorado."
What are your thoughts about the challenge? Will Franklin hear from the Disciplinary Committee?
