Interpretive Handbook

Vancomycin, Trough, Serum
Clinical Information Discusses physiology, pathophysiology, and general clinical aspects, as they relate to a laboratory test
Vancomycin is an antibiotic used to treat infections caused by gram-positive organisms that are resistant to beta-lactam antibiotics, such as methicillin-resistant staphylococci (MRSA), Staphylococcus viridans group, penicillin/cephalosporin-resistant Streptococcus pneumoniae, and penicillin/ampicillin-resistant Enterococcus species.
The oral formulation, which is not absorbed, is used in the treatment of pseudomembranous colitis caused by Clostridium difficile. Vancomycin is also used when patients are intolerant or allergic to beta lactams.
Vancomycin has been associated with nephrotoxicity and ototoxicity, although it appears that many of these reports reflected impurities in early formulations. Monitoring of vancomycin-related nephrotoxicity is recommended only for patients with reduced renal function, those receiving aggressive or prolonged vancomycin regimens, or those at high risk including patients co-medicated with other nephrotoxic agents.
Trough concentrations are recommended for therapeutic monitoring of vancomycin, preferably acquired at steady-state (just before fourth dose). To avoid development of resistance, vancomycin trough levels should remain >10 mcg/mL. Complicated infections require higher target levels, typically 15 to 20 mcg/mL. Peak concentrations do not correlate well to efficacy or nephrotoxicity, but may be useful for pharmacokinetic analyses (eg, area under the curve [AUC]studies) or for select patients.
Useful For Suggests clinical disorders or settings where the test may be helpful
Trough concentrations drawn at steady-state are the preferred test for monitoring vancomycin therapy.
Interpretation Provides information to assist in interpretation of the test results
Trough levels correlate better with efficacy than peak levels, with target trough levels of 10 to 20 mcg/mL, depending on the type of infection.
Cautions Discusses conditions that may cause diagnostic confusion, including improper specimen collection and handling, inappropriate test selection, and interfering substances
No significant cautionary statements
Reference Values Describes reference intervals and additional information for interpretation of test results. May include intervals based on age and sex when appropriate. Intervals are Mayo-derived, unless otherwise designated. If an interpretive report is provided, the reference value field will state this.
Therapeutic concentration: 10.0-20.0 mcg/mL
Complicated infections: 15.0-20.0 mcg/mL
Clinical References Provides recommendations for further in-depth reading of a clinical nature

Taking precautions when moving house is a serious step to avoid causing unnecessary stress that can make the moving transaction very difficult when it doesn't have to be. It's very important to find a reputable moving company that has good reviews and one you can feel safe and trusted to take care of all your important items.
By Picking up the phone book and looking for local moving companies around your area is the first step.
While doing this, you are looking for someone with having at least eight years' experience and ones that don't hire moving brokers.
Have at least three companies ready to research, getting an in home estimate is a must.
If there are some companies not willing to do an in-home estimate then give them a miss.
You are looking for a company that is willing to do the moving themselves some hire other sub-contracting companies to do the moving. Setting up an appointment to visit the company's office and checking over some of their paperwork to prove they are who they say they are and that there is several years' experience.
If there are references available call them to get some feedback from their personal experience.
One important item to make sure is offered from the moving company is a booklet providing 'your rights and responsibilities when you're moving'. Make sure it states clearly what services the company offers, how much insurance is included and what is covered, things like this are important to be aware of before hiring.
Make sure you read it over a couple of times so everything is clear and ask questions if something isn't clear to you. One rule to remember do not sign anything you don't fully understand or sign something you aren't one hundred percent happy with. There are several businesses online that offer looking into your moving company choices and checking that all their information checks out and that they are a legal reputable moving company.
Remember if anyone turns up on the day that should not be there or cannot show identification as to who they are do not proceed ask them to leave then call the company. Following these few steps should ensure finding the perfect reputable moving company for that smooth moving transaction and peace of mind that your belongings are safe and in good hands.

Ditch that same, everyday ponytail (boring) and try one of these newer, not-so-dull versions
You've watched the movie "Mean Girls" right? What's up with their rules? "You can't wear a tank top two days in a row, and you can only wear your hair in a ponytail once a week. So I guess you picked today. Oh, and we only wear jeans or track pants on Fridays."
Only allowed to wear a ponytail once a week? What would our bad hair days look like? We're pretty sure you'd agree that ponytails are lifesavers on those days. (Chances are, you're wearing one right now.)
Click here for some new, fun ponytail ideas
Luckily, there's nothing wrong with sporting a ponytail every day in our version of "Mean Girls." (Shall we call it "Beauty Riot Girls"? Ehh. You're right. Moving on.) But the problem is when it's the exact same ponytail you've been wearing since elementary school. There's nothing more outdated than wearing the same look for years.
Since we love stirring up excitement, we found 10 fab new ponytails we had to share with you. They looked amazing on these celebrities, so why not on you? Whitney Port, Lucy Liu, Hayden Panettiere, Emmy Rossum, Paris Hilton, Ashley Tisdale, Kate Hudson, Keira Knightley, Kate Beckinsale and Jessica Simpson. Each look comes with a quick tip on making the ponytail work.
Best part is, you won't find anything dull or boring with these looks. They're fun, flirty and totally easy to do on yourself. Start with the basics, and you can add your own textures and accessories (you could even try extensions in your ponytail!) to make your personality stand out. Sure beats pulling your hair back into a regular ponytail with an elastic every day.

Excellent quality and piece of mind. Unfortunately Moosejaw doesn't sell the yakima SKS accessory housing for these cores, but I came back for these cores here due to their excellent customer service. No longer worried about my racks walking away on the streets of Chicago.
Bad people steal. So you need these locks. They are very easy to install and will give you some peace of mind while your skis or boards are mounted on the rack when you're at the resort, or just stopping at the gas station or restaurant during your trip. Too bad they're not standard when you buy a Yakima rack.
Trust me, you will need these. Put 1 in each corner of the rack and secure each of your rack attachments with one. No they are not cheap, but it's inexpensive compared to getting your rack stolen!
I was always scared to go run into a store or go grab a bite to eat when I had my bikes attached to my hitch bike rack. I've heard of several people getting their bikes stolen when they stepped away for 5 minutes. Now I can leave my precious bikes attached to the rack without having to worry about them getting stolen!
I've never had my racks stolen, but if you ever read any outdoor, vehicle, subaru, kayaking, etc. forums, you will see many people talking about how their racks had been stolen. It is too easy, and takes less than 20 seconds to grab someone's bars and control towers. These locks prevent your bars/towers from disappearing off your roof while you're in a store, or at work, or sitting in your own parking lot. With these locks, the control towers would literally lave to be cut apart (destroying them in the process) to be stolen. They are worth the price for the purpose they serve.

WILLIAMSON - A Williamson resident that is no stranger to the judicial system in Mingo County and who has an extensive arrest record has now found her allegedly extending her criminal activities across the Tug River into Pike County, Ky.
Crystal Rachelle Davidson, 26, of Vinson Street in Williamson, was scheduled to appear in Mingo County Magistrate Court Wednesday morning for a preliminary hearing on charges of obstructing an officer and public intoxication that stemmed from an arrest on August 17 of this year.
Shortly after arriving at the Memorial Annex Building, Davidson reportedly overheard officers speaking amongst themselves about a warrant out of Kentucky that had been filed against the defendant following an indictment by the Pike County Grand Jury, and managed to flee the building without being seen by law enforcement officers. She was taken into custody a short time later after an employee with the Williamson Branch of the W.Va. Department of Health and Human Resources reported to police that Davidson was hiding inside a restroom in their building on Third Avenue.
Davidson, who according to a magistrate court clerk, has been arrested in Mingo County on 15 different occasions between the years of 2007 and 2013, was indicted in Kentucky after evidence was presented to the grand jury by Pike County Sheriff's Deputy Billy McCoy, who investigated a case of first degree robbery (Class B Felony) and three separate counts of theft by unlawful taking that occurred at the Goody, Ky. Wal-Mart.
The indictment provided by the Commonwealth Attorney's office in Pikeville states on the 25th of April, 2013, Davidson committed the act of 1st degree robbery when, in the course of committing a theft from Wal-Mart, used or threatened the immediate use of physical force with the intent of accomplishing the theft, and either caused physical injury to Daniel Igebear (the store manager), or; while armed with a deadly weapon or while using or threatening the immediate use of a dangerous instrument upon a person not a participant in the crime. The indictment further states that on the dates of March 3rd, June 14th and June 15th of this year, Davidson allegedly stole merchandise that on one occasion, held a value of more than $500 and less than $500 on the two remaining dates.
Davidson was taken into custody by Williamson Patrolman Jarrod Marcum and after being arraigned on the fugitive from justice charge and fleeing from a police officer by Magistrate Dee Sidebottom, was remanded to the custody of the Southwestern Regional Jail at Holden where she will remain without bond until she is extradited to the Pike County Detention Center to face the Kentucky charges.

Comments about Hutchinson Fusion 3 Tire:
I have run these tires for two years+ and have yet to have a flat (knock on wood). I ran them tubeless for a while and switched back to tubes. Currently running on a pair of HED Ardennes and Boyd 60mm carbon clincher. Mounted with ease. A little more difficult on the HEDs.

Comments about Hutchinson Fusion 3 Tire:
Lousy. The side wall on the front failed after less than 600 miles. On the rear, I am getting flats almost daily. My commute route does involve large stretches of shoulder riding which accumulates a lot of glass and other debris.

For constitutive expression we recommend the standard vector pLEXSY-sat2 for selection of LEXSY expression strains with the antibiotic Nourseothricin (NTC). For inducible expression we recommend the integrative vector pLEXSY_I-blecherry3 for selection of LEXSY expression strains with the antibiotic LEXSY Bleo and Cherry fluorescence monitoring of induction.
For expression plasmid construction we recommend our ligase-free CyClone technology in combination with our Primer Designer software (web shop account required)!
The LEXSY Control Vectors were developed as a positive transfection control. They allow evaluation of expression by simple fluorescence measurement of suspension cultures. As reporter proteins the Green, Red, or Cherry Fluorescence Proteins are available.

VANCEBORO – A fresh flock of Eagles led by a new head coach won their first basketball game of the season Thursday night with a 65-42 victory over Pamlico.
West Craven saw four players score in double-figures, whereas the Hurricanes only had one.
Alkeim Harley and Zac Cuthbertson scored 13 each, while Tyrone Brown added 11 and Quasean Bryant had 10.
"That's how we are going to play basketball this season to win," West Craven coach Charles Harris said. "We don't have a "superstar," but we do have four or five guys who can give us 10-15 points a night and that's what we are going to need from them.'"
The win was Harris's first as a Varsity head coach and he couldn't wait to get the monkey off his back.
"With Kinston tomorrow night, we thought we would have a pretty good opportunity to get it tonight at home," Harris said. "Pamlico is a good basketball team and I think tonight was a growth spurt for our guys."
Speaking of spurts, it was a spurt by the Eagles at the beginning of the third quarter (9-2) that helped put the game away.
West Craven led 29-21 at halftime and increased its lead to 38-23 midway through the third after the spurt.
Pamlico started strong, leading 11-9 after one, but struggled to find the bottom of the net in the second half.
Arthur Randall paced the Canes with 10 points, while normally double-figure scorers Josiah Simmons and Cameron Moore were held to seven and six respectively.
"There's a difference in a reason and an excuse and this is by no means an excuse but after three games in three nights I thought our guys just didn't have any lift in their legs tonight," Pamlico coach Earl Sadler said. "Down eight at the half, our goal was to come out and get it tied up and go from there. Unfortunately, we couldn't get any stops on defense and never got back close."
Pamlico won the turnover battle (16 to West Craven's 18), but were out-rebounded 38-29 by the Eagles.
Cuthbertson had 10 boards and five steals to go with his 13 points for the Eagles, while Jared Fulcher recorded eight rebounds.
"I think our football guys are starting to knock the rust off a bit, but we have to value possession of the basketball a lot better," Harris said. "Our guards have to continue to grow and improve."
West Craven (65) – Zac Cuthbertson 13, Alkeim Harley 13, Tyrone Brown 11, Quasean Bryant 10, Shyheem Scott 6, Noah Lewis 3, Ja'Quan Reed 3, Jared Fulcher 2, Kylikke Green 2, Anthony Oates 2.
Pamlico (42) – Arthur Randall 10, Josiah Simmons 7, Cameron Moore 6, Tarik Davis 4, Tyler Ellenberg 4, D.J. Lewis 4, David Resto 3, Bradley Bennett 2, Seth Edmonds 2.
Team Stats:
Rebounds: Pamlico -28, West Craven 29. Turnovers: Pamlico 16, West Craven 18. Free Throws: Pamlico 8-for-17 (47%), West Craven 14-for-23 (61%).

Event honors local heroes who sprang into action
Genna Martin / The Herald
Coach Rob Zabel watches his team work on holds during a Snohomish wrestling practice Tuesday. Zabel, who performed CPR and saved the life of assistant coach Dan Mundell after a heart attack, is being recognized as one of the American Red Cross Snohomish County Chapter's "Real Heroes."

A health and fitness teacher at Everett's North Middle School and the assistant wrestling coach at Snohomish High, Mundell is scheduled for heart surgery -- a triple bypass.
That Mundell survived to have today's procedure is a testament to Snohomish High School wrestling coach Rob Zabel's prompt actions and cool head. Zabel is one of nearly 20 heroes being honored this morning in a ballroom at the Tulalip Resort Casino.
The 18th annual Real Heroes Breakfast is a fundraiser for the Snohomish County Chapter of the American Red Cross. With breakfast sponsorships and donations at the event, the agency has a goal of $250,000, said Kristi Myers, the local Red Cross' regional chief development officer. That money will stay in Snohomish County, supporting disaster relief and services to the armed forces.
"We were in the mat room where our practices are. We do some conditioning at the end of practice, and a short series of runs," Zabel said Monday. Finished with running, Zabel saw Mundell on the floor, perhaps to stretch.
Then he realized something was wrong.
"Dan did not get up. I got to him as he lost consciousness," Zabel said. "All of our coaches are first-aid and CPR trained. I started it right away. I did compression only -- they have changed the training. If you can keep compression going, enough oxygen gets in the lungs and bloodstream."
In those life-or-death seconds, Zabel's first thought was saving Mundell. He also considered the effects of the crisis on his wrestlers. "There were probably 40 to 45 students in the room. I asked -- yelled at -- one of my managers to call 911. The rest of the kids were evacuated from the room right away," Zabel said. "That wasn't something kids needed to see. They signed up to learn and work hard. That day, life got very real."
A portable defibrillator was in the room, but Zabel didn't use it. "Once paramedics got there, they did," he said.
Saving someone, especially a friend, was a surreal experience. "You play it back over in your mind," Zabel said. "I kept thinking, 'Did that really just happen?'"
Yes it happened, and Mundell is thankful every day for Zabel's able assistance after his cardiac arrest.
Paramedics arrived within seven minutes of being called, Zabel said. Mundell was rushed to Providence Regional Medical Center Everett's Colby campus.
"On the way in, they had to shock me twice," Mundell said. "During the surgery, they had to tell my wife I wasn't going to make it. But they pulled me through."
Mundell said doctors subjected his body to "hibernation" by dropping his temperature for 12 hours. In two surgeries, one right away and the other a month later, he had five stents placed in arteries that carry blood from his heart.
By the end of last year's wrestling season, he had returned to work. "I ran a 5K on St. Patrick's Day, faster than I had in 20 years. I was feeling great," Mundell said.
This summer, he began having "a weird feeling" during his runs. After two types of stress tests, he learned his body was rejecting the stents.
Mundell plans to return to work after several weeks of recovery from today's surgery.
An alumnus of Snohomish High who married his high school sweetheart, Mundell has been Zabel's wrestling assistant since 2000. "He's had both my kids in class," Mundell said.
A photo from his daughter Sissy Bates-Mundell's 2012 graduation from Snohomish High also shows Zabel. "I see that picture and thank him every day," Mundell said.
Zabel, the wrestling coach hero, wishes his colleague a speedy recovery. Mundell said the coach has made just one request, telling his assistant: "The best way you can thank me is to come to work every day and be yourself."
Other awards
Along with Real Heroes honorees related to 10 other incidents, two additional people are being recognized at the breakfast.
The Spirit of Red Cross Award will be given to Everett Police Sgt. Jeraud Irving. For seven years a firefighter and emergency medical technician with Fire District 11, Irving joined the Everett Police Department in 1998. Since 2011, he has worked to train all patrol officers in Snohomish County in compression-only CPR. According to the Red Cross, the time-saving training has helped Everett officers save at least five lives in the past two years.
And the Red Cross 2013 Clare Waite Humanitarian Award winner is Bob Drewel. Snohomish County executive from 1991 to 2003 and a former Everett Community College president, Drewel will soon retire as executive director of the Puget Sound Regional Council.
The Red Cross is honoring Drewel's decades of civic involvement. He has served on many boards, among them the Economic Development Council, Healthy Communities Initiative, United Way of Snohomish County and Snohomish County Tomorrow.

Now the entire nation will have the opportunity to see the country crooner, also known as Earl Jones, along with his sons Tyler and John and his 5-year-old granddaughter Bryleigh for a special appearance on the long running "The Shotgun Red Variety Show." The show will air March 21-22 at and March 24 at on Rural America network RFD-TV. In the fall, it will air three more times reaching an estimated 8 million viewers in the
"We got a chance to perform with some really top notch musicians," Jones said. "It took six hours to do a 30 minute show because of the different angles and putting the shots together. It's exhausting but it's fun."
The Shotgun Red Company reviews thousands of performers and selects acts ranging from jugglers to family bands, magicians and more to their stage. The producer of the show, Steve Hall, first contacted Jones' wife and manager Kathy last year after seeing a YouTube video of his live show.
"I didn't plan on doing anything like this, and I wasn't looking for stardom," Jones said. "He said it was Ed Sullivan meets Hee Haw and that's what he was looking for. He liked the participation that I did with the kids and I think that's the part that really attracted him."
The family traveled to
"I had not been to
John, who is an award-winning songwriter, multi-instrumentalist and producer, co-wrote two original songs with Jones especially for the show.
"To say that it was an amazing opportunity would be an understatement for sure," John said. "He's the one who really put the decades of work in to get to this point. He's one of those guys who has never given up a on a chance to play in
Jones has owned the
"(Cowboy Earl) was actually started as character for Mike's Farm at the spur of the moment," Jones said. "I found something that was different from what everybody else was doing and over the years I reworked it. It takes a lot of thinking and crafting to come up with a workable show and engage the audience."
Jones decided to retire from Mike's Farm shows to provide more educational programs for children, including musical field trips that train students to write their own songs and perform on video.
"We wanted to do more with music education, so we went in a different direction," Jones said. "We're the first ones to do this in North Carolina … it's the only field trip that's proven to boost test scores with kids."
John, who started playing seriously when he was 16, also shares a love for performing and teaching music at
"It was a real privilege to get on stage with seasoned
After 15 years of performing as Cowboy Earl, Jones said that he is surprised to see that audiences still enjoy watching and singing along with his character.
"I thought Cowboy Earl had run its course until I got the call for this show," he said. "I'm going to take it on as long as it will work for me."
RFD-TV will air "The Shotgun Red Variety Show" on channel 231 on Dish Network and channel 345 on DirecTV. Cable subscribers should contact their providers for more information on RFD-TV.

Welcome from the Director
There are many good reasons to visit the Marian Miner Cook Athenaeum this fall-sometimes referred to as the "jewel" of the Claremont Colleges. Here you can meet friends and colleagues for afternoon tea. There are lectures, debates, concerts, poetry readings, etc., every Monday through Thursday evening. A gourmet meal prepared by Chef David Skinner and his staff precedes each program, and provides you with the opportunity to meet a distinguished visitor, have dinner with your professor, or use this as an opportunity to make new friends.
A copy of the Fortnightly newsletter will be placed in your mailboxes every two weeks with articles describing these special programs. Reserving space for a meal is easy. You may sign up at www.claremontmckenna.edu/mmca, return the form printed in the Fortnightly, or fax your request to ext. 18579. If you choose not to attend the dinner, you are welcome to show up at 6:45 p.m. for the program, no reservation needed.
Afternoon tea begins Monday, September 10th and is open every weekday from 3:00 to 4:30 p.m. Pastry chef Sid Vichaita has already begun baking his famous cookies, cakes, and pastries for this anticipated occasion.
It is also a pleasure to introduce Dana Gavre and David Murphy, chosen by the Athenaeum Advisory Committee to serve as Student Fellows for the academic year 20012002. The Fellows play a major role in shaping the direction of the programming at the Athenaeum, having the opportunity to explore their own creative ideas as well as serving as liaison to CMC students.
Dana, a sophomore from Waukesha, Wisconsin, is a literature and legal studies major. She hopes to give more prominence to fine arts in the Athenaeum calendar. David, from Chevy Chase, Maryland, is also a sophomore and contemplates a major in government, music, or religious studies. With this range of interests-recently expanded after a summer job working with a space tourism company-David looks forward to meeting new students anc seeing old friends.
The Athenaeum's mission is to enhance the intellectual life and add to the richness of your experience at CMC. Come enjoy the fun.

Going HAM for GSW. Not sure how I feel about this.
Loved both dem guys.
There were no mins here any longer for carl. As for jack he was moved to create space for the lopez trade, they both left here on decent terms so I'm happy they're doing well.
Jack has proven that he can fill up a stat line yet have absolutely no influence on the outcome of a game. Landry, as someone above pointed out, didn't have a role here anymore. Glad to see they are doing well though.
Mod's please fix the spelling on the title.
It makes us Australians look bad :hihi:
Who's Landy?
Thanks mod's.
Perth I wasn't having a go......typo's happen!
Two guys who are top 5 in character in the NBA and personal favorites of mine. They're playing their best suited roles as scorers off the bench and I really hope they have a productive and healthy season.
Great guys but, as mentioned, there just wasn't any room/need for them anymore.
I miss Emeka Okafor. Hated his contract but I loved him.
neither of those guys are legitimate NBA starters
here, they'd have to start to justify the salaries
there, they are excellent role/bench players
landry would be in the way here
jack i miss
good for them. they left on good terms, and they're doing well on a team I don't hate. that's all you can ask
Not a fan of Jack at all.
Landry I miss, very good player. But we have one of the top front court rotations in the NBA(Davis,Andersen, Smith, Lopez) and all of our guys our young. I'm happy Landry is somewhere where he is happy and has a chance to succeed.
Jack is a great player to have off the bench. He's too shot happy to be a starter but as a scorer/distributor off the bench, he's a great asset. I have no problems with Jack in the right role. The same can be said of Landry. Great reserve and scorer off the bench but terrible as a full time starter. GSW got it right and acquired the right Hornets. Can't say that same for Washington though.
I bet Washington is regretting that trade for Okafor and Ariza right now. Those two are awful.
That was a stupid trade for Washington. Really, one of the best trades in Hornets history.

SPOKANE, Wash. -- Washington State University football is going to get a new headquarters building.
The WSU Board of Regents on Friday approved a $61 million football operation building to be constructed beginning this month.
The school just completed a $65 million addition for premium seating and a new press box.
The new football operations building will provide coaches offices, along with equipment, training, locker and weight rooms. It will be built on the west end of Martin Stadium.
Construction will begin after the Apple Cup this year and is to be completed by June 2014.
Most of the money to pay the bonds will come from the Pac-12's huge new television contract.
(In the video above, WSU President Elson S.Floyd talks with KING 5's Chris Daniels about the new football facility.)

Gallery: Green-Roofed Holocaust Museum Unveiled in Los Angeles
The museum just opened this week in a lot adjacent to the Holocaust Memorial placed in 1992. The LAMH is the oldest holocaust museum in the US and this is its fourth and final location. Its subtle design is meant to blend in with the park, offering a public open space. The exterior is very gracious, featuring a green roof with a series of walkways pressed into its undulating shape – pedestrians may not even be aware when they are on museum grounds.
The entrance is subtly placed as a long descending corridor, splitting the body of the building into two. Windows on either side of the descending entrance let light into the heart of the space. The spaces are designed with lowered ceilings and lighting as the embedded rooms tell the story of the Jewish experience as the war unfolds.

Calkins: 2013 -- Weirdest. Sports year. Ever.
The call girl lucked out.
Former middle-distance runner Suzy Favor Hamilton never won a medal in any of the three Olympics in which she competed. But in 2012, she was the undisputed winner of the Strangest Sports Story of the Year title when it was discovered that she had been living a double life as a prostitute.
The thing is – that news broke on December 20, which was good fortune for Hamilton. Because if the story would have come out 12 days later, Suzy wouldn't even be on the podium.
Seriously, has there ever been a more bizarre sports year than 2013? It's only March, and it has already vanquished all of its 365-day predecessors. I realize that in ancient Greece, Olympians used to compete naked, but if that were to happen this year, it wouldn't even make Page 1.
A few days ago, I asked a couple coworkers what they thought were the wackiest sports stories from 2013. One said the college basketball season, in which teams ranked No. 1 appear to have a record of 0-94. Another said Lance Armstrong, who confessed his doping sins to the nation via Oprah Winfrey.
My response? Puh-lease. Not this year. Not even close.
For example, let's take a look at the third strangest sports tale from this 2013-- Oscar Pistorius.
The South African was the feel-good story of the London Games when he became the first double amputee to compete in the Olympics – running in the 400 meters and the 4X400 relay. But the inspiration quickly morphed into devastation when, last month, he was charged with killing his girlfriend, whom he admitted to shooting.
That's wild enough on its own. But to give it that extra boost of bizarre, it was reported that the lead detective in the case was…facing an attempted murder charge! You know what they say – only in Pretoria.
Still, that's No. 3, which would be like Usain Bolt taking bronze after running a 9.2 in the 100.
In second place, you ask? Manti Te'o.
When Deadspin broke the story of the Notre Dame linebacker's fake dead girlfriend, the country exploded with reactions. Some people condemned him. Some people defended him. Some didn't know what to think. But the one conclusion everyone drew was – this is the craziest story I have ever read.
It transcended sports, with Te'o going on Katie Couric to try and explain himself. It inundated Twitter, with folks quipping gems such as "All these Manti Te'o jokes are funny, but let's try to remember that the person who never existed is dead."
Like Notre Dame's regular-season run, it both shocked and captivated the country. But like the Irish in the national championship game, this story is a distant second.
Now, to unseat someone like Te'o, you have to turn to someone special. Commissioner Gordon calls on Batman. CTU depends on Jack Bauer. And to take the top spot in the in the most peculiar sports year ever, we turn to – Dennis Rodman…the diplomat.

Adams Idea a12 OS Irons
Product Overview
The Idea a12 OS hybrid irons are built with ultra thin faces, perimeter weighting and low CG's throughout the set.
The Idea a12 OS hybrid utilizes Velocity Slot Technology to produce a spring-like effect across the entire face, which improves forgiveness and increases launch angle without increasing spin; this combined with the ultra thin face produces higher ball speeds increasing distance.
The Idea a12 OS set also includes redesigned Transitional Hybrids with a "Truss Back" design allowing more weight to be distributed to the perimeter of the club lowering the center of gravity making them optimally suited for bridging the gap between the hybrids and the deep undercut cavity-back irons of the set.
