Shepherd's OT Game-Winner Caps Wild Comeback as Men's Lacrosse Sets School-Record for Wins; Advances to Title Game Sunday vs. Limestone
April 20, 2012
CHARLOTTE, N.C. - James Shepherd's overtime goal just 15 seconds in capped off a wild comeback as second-seeded Pfeiffer University picked up an 8-7 victory over third-seeded Queens in the second semifinal of the Conference Carolinas tournament on Friday afternoon. The win, a school-record 11th for the Falcons, push them into Sunday's championship game against top-seeded Limestone.
Pfeiffer trailed 6-2 to Queens with 5:14 to play in the third quarter as the comeback began with Shepherd's first of the day with 32 ticks left in the period. Behind three to start the fourth, Justin Rose would set the tone for the final 15 minutes with a strike just 68 seconds in.
Shepherd's second would get it to within one at 6-5 with 9:25 to play before Kory Lutes finally tied things up six-all just 44 seconds later. TC Whaley briefly gave the Royals a 7-6 advantage before Rose hit with the equalizer 3:27 before overtime.
Pfeiffer advances to 11-5 overall setting the new school-mark getting ready for a rematch with Limestone on Sunday afternoon. The Saints, much like the Falcons did on Friday, came back for an 8-7 win over the Falcons last Saturday in South Carolina.

MISENHEIMER, NC - The Pfeiffer men's basketball team (5-19, 2-12 CC) dropped its home finale to conference-leading Barton (16-9, 12-3) by a final score of 98-84 on Wednesday evening. Chris Flemmings had a monster game for the Bulldogs, scoring a career high 36 points on 10-of-20 shooting from the field. Flemmings knocked down six three pointers and hit 10-of-12 free throws while adding nine rebounds.
Pfeiffer was led by freshman Mike Smith who scored 24 points and dished out four assists. AJ Clark added 16 points for the Falcons, who were held to 37.5 percent shooting in the second half.
The Falcons ran out to a hot start in the first half. Matt Ellwood connected on a four-point play at the 14:47 mark to give Pfeiffer an early 13-9 advantage. Pfeiffer held the lead for the next 12:21 until Flemmings converted a three-point play to give Barton a 36-34 lead with 2:26 to go. The half would end with Barton holding a 44-39 lead.
The second half belonged to Flemmings and the Bulldogs. The guard scored 25 of his 36 points in the second half and missed only two of his seven three point attempts. Flemmings accounted for nearly half of his team's second half points as Barton outscored Pfeiffer 54-45 in the final 20 minutes. The Falcons struggled on both ends of the court in the second half, hitting only 15-of-40 shots and allowing Barton to hit 60 percent of their field goals.
Five Bulldogs finished in double figures on the night. Travis McEachern had 18 points and Daniel McClendon added 17 points.
David McNair finished with his second consecutive double-double. The sophomore forward grabbed 12 rebounds and scored 10 points and is currently the conference's third leading rebounder.
Pfeiffer will hit the road for the final two games of the regular season starting with a matchup at King on Saturday at 7:30 p.m.

Women's Golf Welcomes In Highly Competitive Class of 2014
April 28, 2010
MISENHEIMER, N.C. Pfeiffer University head golf coach Phil Fecteau announced the signing of five new student-athletes to be a part of the Lady Falcon golf program starting in the fall of 2010. The six newcomers are Lauren Lyle, Kelly Hill, Angela Gimenez, Stephanie Peareth and Meredith Beavin.
Lyle ventures to Misenheimer via Orlando, Florida and Timber Creek High School. With the Wolves, Lyle helped her squad finish the 2009 season undefeated with a district and region championship. Lyle placed third in the district event following that up with a top-five finish in the state tournament. Last summer, Lyle scored a huge victory in the Walt Disney Childrens Miracle Network Championship and finishing second in both events leading up to the Disney tournament. For her champion efforts, Lyle was the honorary starter at the PGA Tours Classic event rubbing elbows with Stephen Ames, Justin Rose, Zach Johnson and Justin Leonard.
Hill, originally from Palm City, Florida now residing in Burke, Virginia, is the youngest of four in her family. Hill is infamously known as a member of the fabulous five as a freshman starter on the boys varsity golf team. Hill posted a 75 and 79 in the VSHL Boys District tournament. Hill started playing golf at the age of four and traded preschool for the driving range.
Gimenez also hails from Spain and the city of Castellon de la Plana. Since playing in the under-10 age group back in 2002, Gimenez has been ranked either one or two in 24 different regional rankings including the top scoring junior in Valencia as recently as March 2009. Gimenez also got close with some of golfs best in the world like Sergio Garcia, Paul Casey, Camilo Villegas and Rose in a 2008 golf clinic.
Peareth comes to the village from Newton Aycliffe in Great Britain going into her fifth year of playing golf. Peareth has scored a half-dozen wins in juniors county, region and national play carding rounds of 70, 72, and three 73s. Peareth became the national girls champion, BCS with a round of 83. Her 2009 efforts came after five wins in 2008 which included a mens event.
Beavin, traveling south from Reiserstown, Maryland just outside Baltimore dabbled in four sports in high school picking golf as #1. Beavin was the #1 golfer and team captain on her Franklin High School team all four season which included an unbeaten record in 2009. Named the teams MVP and scholar-athlete, Beavin scored second, fourth and sixth place finishes in her district, region and state tournaments. Beavin starred in lacrosse and basketball along with track and field. Beavin is the middle sibling in her family being a whopping five minutes older than her twin brother Cameron.

Ask Juhyung Yoon and Frank Hoang how they spent their summer vacations, and they have a story to tell. They didn't have formal jobs – but they both worked. Hard.
In June, each was handed a cool million to invest – and both earned a tidy return on their investments.
They were two of 271 high school students nationally competing in the Top Performer Stock Market Competition run by the Naveen Jindal School of Management at the University of Texas at Dallas.
Yoon of Cypress finished first by earning a 98 percent return on his investment. Hoang of Anaheim finished second, earning a 67 percent return.
Yes, it was virtual money, but they invested in a virtual market that exactly mirrored reality. And the knowledge they gained about investments is valuable and real.
So is the $1,500 each received as a prize. This summer they put their virtual money to work, and it paid off.
Of course, it wasn't easy.
"That first week, I didn't know what to do," recalls Yoon, 17, who started by buying stocks whose prices were rising. He successfully bought at the top of the market and lost $200,000 in one week.
Then Yoon realized the contest offered four video classes explaining the basics of personal finance and investing. Passing them was worth an extra $200,000 in virtual bucks.
Hoang, 18, by contrast, took the classes first and didn't start trading until July.
He began by using exchange-traded funds. He thought these mutual funds that trade like stocks would be a safer bet.
"I started out at 30th place."
The two students, who competed against each other with user names, didn't realize until the end that both attended Oxford Academy in Cypress. Yoon is an Oxford senior now; Hoang is a freshman at UC Berkeley.
Once Yoon learned about options, he started to use them.

CHARLOTTE (AP) — Coach Ron Rivera believes Brandon LaFell's emergence as a reliable No. 2 receiver is the key to Carolina's success this season.
Rivera said the third-year receiver is finally "getting it" when it comes to the offensive scheme, which translates to fewer double teams for Steve Smith and bigger holes for the running backs.
LaFell's stat line Sunday against the New Orleans Saints may not turn a lot of heads — six catches for 90 yards.
But the Panthers know just how significant LaFell was in their 35-27 win, as well as his potential impact on the offense this season. His performance against the Saints helped the Panthers (1-1) pile up 463 yards.
Carolina looks to keep that momentum going Thursday night against the New York Giants.
"Ever since Moose (Muhsin Muhammad) retired and also with Ricky Proehl retiring, we've been looking for a guy to step in and step up," Smith said of the team's No. 2 receiver position. "I think Brandon has done that."
Said Rivera: "He's established himself as a very good complement to Steve Smith."
Rivera said LaFell has improved in all phases of the game, including his downfield blocking, recognizing different defensive schemes and route running.
"I'll tell you that Brandon is really developing into a fine receiver," Rivera said. "He is really a solid football player. He showed what he's capable of and those types of plays that he makes, the consistency by which he is making them is really helping us."
It's amazing what a difference a year can make.
Entering last season Rivera wasn't thrilled with how LaFell and David Gettis were picking up coordinator Rob Chudzinski's scheme. That prompted the Panthers to sign free agent receiver Legedu Naanee, who Rivera was familiar with having coached in San Diego.
Rivera said the move was perceived as him lighting a fire under the younger receivers but in reality he made the decision "because we weren't getting what we needed."
As the season progressed, LaFell became more comfortable in the offense.
And when Naanee injured his foot in Week 11, LaFell stepped into a starting role and flourished. He finished with 15 receptions for 258 yards and one touchdown in six starts. His most productive game came against Tampa Bay when he finished with three catches for 103 yards
LaFell, a third-round pick in 2010, played well enough that the Panthers handed him the starting role in the spring and didn't bother to re-sign Naanee, a free agent.
"I wouldn't think of bringing someone else in now because of what Brandon's done," Rivera said. "He's giving us every indication that he gets it, he understands it and he's ready to become that guy. He has to continue to push himself and keep that carrot in front of him."
On Sunday, LaFell saw his fair share of one-on-one matchups against the Saints and made the most of them, catching all six balls thrown his way.
"Smitty is pulling double teams, and I'm getting one on ones up there. I've got the biggest smile on my face in the stadium," LaFell said. "That's going to happen a lot this year and I always tell Smitty, 'Man, I go as you go.' Sooner or later it's going to happen. Sooner or later they're going to start double-teaming me and leave Smitty wide open, then he can make those 70 yard plays."
That happened on Sunday.
On a bizarre play in the second half, Saints defensive backs botched an assignment when they provided extra help on LaFell, leaving Smith wide open down the right sidelines. With nobody within 20 yards of Smith, Newton made the easiest completion of his career and Smith raced for a 66-yard gain to set up a Carolina touchdown.
Newton said he was shocked Smith was so open.
"Of all of the people on this field to be wide open, you would think Smitty would be the last person," Newton said.
LaFell credits his improvement to spending additional time around Smith, a 12-year veteran and the elder statesman on the Carolina roster, this past offseason.
"I stayed on Smitty's wing, learning as much as I can, running and watching Smitty, working out with Smitty, doing as much as I can to be the help that we need in this offense," LaFell said.
With Newton running the zone read option, a solid backfield that includes DeAngelo Williams, Jonathan Stewart and Mike Tolbert, a game-breaking receiver in Smith and an underrated tight end Greg Olsen, the Panthers believe LaFell could be the extra weapon that pushes the offense over the top.
As offensive tackle Jordan Gross said, you simply can't double team everyone.
"You sort of have to pick your poison with the guys we have," Gross said.
Notes: Rivera said starting right tackle Byron Bell suffered a sprained right ankle and linebacker Thomas Davis tweaked his right hamstring again Sunday. Both received medical treatment Monday at the stadium. Their status for the Giants game is unknown.

Reno Tops the List of "Greenest" U.S. Cities
The Natural Resources Defense Council (NRDC) has named twenty-two U.S. cities "2010 Smarter Cities" for their investment in green power, energy efficiency measures and conservation.
NRDC started the research process by creating a database of all U.S. municipalities with populations greater than 50,000. Those cities were broken down into three categories; small cities, medium cities, and large cities. 655 total cities were contacted. Each city was asked to participate in the study by filling out a survey. (See the NRDC link above for specifics.)
Several of the more well-known eco-friendly cities on the list included Portland, San Francisco and Seattle. Reno, Nevada – which surprised many – is among the top scorers, sharing the spot with Columbus, Ohio, Springfield, Ill., and Dubuque, Iowa. The rankings are based on energy use per capita, renewable power investments, efficiency efforts and conservation incentives.
As Lindsey McCormack with NRDC wrote, "Reno, Nevada is known for its casinos and quick divorces, but this city at the foot of the Sierra Nevadas also has a flourishing green energy sector. In addition to a number of promising efficiency initiatives, Reno has growing potential as a hub of energy research and wind and geothermal power generation. Already the city has made significant strides that have led to it being named a 2010 Smarter City for Energy, including low per capita municipal energy consumption, distributed energy programs, a 17 percent reduction in energy use in the last five years and the provision of 20 percent of municipal energy by geothermal production."
Reno City Hall was noted as playing a prominent role in Reno's emerging green culture with the recent addition of several wind turbines, and let's not forget that the famous Reno Arch is also green, with each bulb having been replaced with LED lights. Reno also is at the hub of the biggest geothermal serves in the country. The Peppermill Resort Casino, for example, recently completed a $9.7 million geothermal energy project.
Click here to read McCormack's full report on Reno's conservation efforts. Also, be sure to check out the Reno profile created by NRDC.
A big green high-five to the Biggest Little City for once again making us so proud to call Reno Tahoe home.

GPHII is pretty much my perfect signature scent, but since it is (unfortunately) being discontinued, I am look for a replacement that is as similar to that as possible. It wasn't specifically the actually smell of it that made it so perfect for me, it was more of the vibe that I got from it.
Some adjectives I would use to describe what made it so perfect are masculine but gentle, kind-hearted, slightly dark, warm, comforting/inviting, spicy, natural/outdoorsy, poetic, etc.
I know that it's a pretty specific request but a replacement doesn't need to be all of those; I am just looking for fragrances along those same lines to get me going in the right direction.
Any suggestions?
Irreversible by Jeanne Arthes is one I remember being somewhat similar
Where did you hear that GPHII is being discontinued??
thanks! I'll check out Irreversible.
And it's not listed on Gucci's main website anymore (but apparently Pour Homme I is? O.o), and when I emailed them about it they confirmed that it's not in production anymore
WHAT! pour homme 2 is discontinued? Its one of there best sellers and is highly regarded as a great scent worldwide.......if true i gotta go pick up a bottle but i have an itchy that its not discontinued.
You could just buy up a bunch of GPHII while they're still floating around (and they are floating around allover with etailers and what-have-you) if you're that worried... it's not easy to find something "perfect."
L'Artisan's Tea For Two would be a good replacement.
Tea for two.
Just look online for another bottle of Gucci II while you can. Or maybe Lalique Equus ?
Tea For Two is also tea based fragrance but it is more dense and heavy. IMO suits more to older gentleman.
TOP 3 hot weather:
1. Gucci Pour Homme II
2. Lalique Encre Noire

Annick Goutal Duel smells very similar.
Gucci Pour Homme II discontinued? this industry is going nuts...
... And do me a favor - don't disturb my friend. He's dead tired.
Welcome to the Bwahahaha! era...
Hadn't heard anything about it being discontinued (I know it was rumoured that Gucci PH1 was being discontinued, but I still see both at Sephora all the time.)
I guess it's across the board that Tea for Two is very similar so I'll sample that one as well. I'm just worried about it being too loud and not being versatile enough.
God, I hope GPHII hasn't been discontinued and I've just been misinformed
tea pour deux!
It seems to be the latest fashion, especially when it comes to Gucci, to discontinue great frags to give place to an utter crap.
A frag with a very similar vibe and many of the same notes is L'Artisan's excellent Coeur de Vetiver Sacre. It's primarily a lightly smoky tea with an undercurrent of violet, spices (cinnamon) and dried fruits, woods, and a soft leather and vetiver.
***For sale:
Iris Pallida 50ml
Ungaro I 75ml
and more! - http://www.basenotes.net/threads/301...n-Man-and-more
Is there an actual link to confirm it's being discontinued? That would suck as I am a huge fan of II, esp. when you want to smell nice but need something a bit closer to the skin. Damn, that would be a travesty. Is I also discontinued? I heard that one definitely is???
It is still there in the gucci website.
No way it has been discontinued.
Pour Homme II is not listed in their fragrances anymore but Pour Homme I still is
Coeur de Vetiver Sacre sounds like something I'm interested in too, thanks!
It's available on fragrancenet. Just stock up there.
Eau des Baux by L'Occitane reminds me of GPH II.
Current favorite: Chanel Bois des Iles
EDIT : it's still listed here http://www.gucci.com/int/home , i guess it's a US thing ? idunnolol.jpg
I think it happens just in US and CA were discontinued. Its still available aound Europe based on their site. but still, hope Gucci PH2 remains.
I sampled Tea for Two and it smelled very smokey on my skin. This really saddens me, nothing really replaces GPHII. Gotta stock up before it's gone!
Lalique Pour Homme Equus, in the Eau de Parfum.
Aramis New West (preferably old bottle)
Patrick by Fragrances of Ireland
Azzaro Aqua
Gloria by Cacharel
PM me if you have bottles that you're willing to sell or trade!
drop the tea and pick yourself up a good fig like Lubin Figaro

It would truly suck if it were in fact discontinued! When I get my taxes back, I'll have to get atleast 3!
Sometimes frags are only discontinued in regions not necessarily all ovre so maybe its just for the states but everywhere else its still in production, if its DisC in the u.s then prolly the sales were bad. If Gucci were to discontinue PH2 entirely then they have completly gone mad....
It's still there and you can still add it to your cart.
I truly dislike when someone spreads false information. If you don't what you're talking about, don't say it. Gucci Pour Homme ll is not being discontinued. The original post was added last year, and the cologne is still everywhere to date.

you can still buy 2 back-up bottles, leave them in a refridgerator for the next 30 years, if its your sig and you like it a lot.
...try Yang by Jacques Fath; it is a better GPH II...!
i had gone to a fragrance store and went to ask for this to add a back up to my collection since i knew it was about to be discontinued. i dont wear this fragrance much. so i go in there and the lady say" yea i have one buuuuuuuuuutttttttt i sold it" that idiot must of known to of what was to come to gucci 2. whatever though itd projection and longevity werent even that good!!! but yea tea for two is your best bet
I get amazing longevity from GphII - easily 12-plus hours, and I can still smell it on my shirt the next day, but I realize many others seem to get poor longevity from it.
Just tried it out today.
It was in the drawers since the SAs mentioned that they weren't stocking it anymore.
I really like it, but my skins drinks it up. Within the first half hour, I have to sniff my arm up close to get any whiff of the fragrance at all.
Too bad

Test ID: TOBPK
Tobramycin, Peak, Serum
Method Description Describes how the test is performed and provides a method-specific reference
This assay is performed by enzyme-multiplied immunoassay technique (EMIT) using an Olympus analyzer. EMIT offers an alternative to the traditional spectroscopic and chromatographic method for quantitating blood concentrations of drugs. The technique for drugs is based upon an enzymatic assay for glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6P-DH), using spectral properties at 340 nm, in which the reduction of nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD) substrate is monitored. The basis of the drug detection technique is an immunological reaction between the drug and a specific antibody. The reagent contains the enzyme G6P-DH to which the drug is covalently bound and an antibody specific to the drug. The antibody binds most of the drug-bound enzyme, rendering the enzyme inactive. This results in a baseline enzymatic activity. In the presence of free drug, antibody equilibrates between free drug and enzyme-bound drug leaving some of the drug-bound enzyme uncomplexed and able to catalyze the reaction. If more free drug is introduced, either as standard or sample, then competition for the antibody takes place between the drug in the sample and the drug attached to the enzyme. This results in more drug-bound enzyme being left uncomplexed and able to catalyze the enzyme reaction at a greater rate as compared to the baseline activity. The observed enzyme activity increases with the amount of total free drug in the sample.(Package insert: EMIT 2000 Tobramycin Syva Company, Siemens Healthcare Diagnositics, Newwark DE, June 2011)

A Phase II Trial of Response-Based Radiation Therapy for Pediatric Patients with Localized Central Nervous System Germ Cell Tumors (CNS GCT)
Brain and Nervous System
What is the purpose of this trial?
Drugs used as chemotherapy, such as carboplatin, etoposide, and ifosfamide work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing. Radiation therapy uses high-energy x rays to kill tumor cells. Giving chemotherapy with radiation therapy may kill more tumor cells. This phase II trial studies how well chemotherapy and radiation therapy work in treating younger patients with newly diagnosed central nervous system germ cell tumors.

Tire Rack ProSolo Season Finale Set For This Weekend In Lincoln
TOPEKA, Kan. (Aug. 27, 2013) – The final round of The Tire Rack® SCCA ProSolo® Championship is scheduled to hit the course at the Lincoln (Neb.) Airpark, Aug. 31 and Sept. 1. With 270 competitors already entered for the traditional Labor Day weekend finale, the field of talent is extremely deep.
The weather conditions for the event look favorable, at this point. Forecasters are calling for sunshine both days of competition, with temperatures in the low to mid 90s. The clear conditions should result in some fast times being laid down by drivers across 26 classes.
Nick Barbato, of Wethersfield, Conn., is the Super Challenge championship point leader heading to the event. After sweeping the East Coast meets, in New Jersey and Washington, D.C., Barbato (B Stock, GT Academy Got it Wrong Honda S200) has collected 105 points.
Though he may hold the lead, the competition is wide open. At the Lincoln Finale, all challenge points are weighted to reflect the championship nature of the event and the strength of the ProSolo field.
Barbato's closest competition, in terms of points, is Kinch Reindl, of Denver. Reindl (Street Touring Compact, YourFreedomPodcast.com Honda Civic) sits 15 markers behind the top spot, after a win at Lincoln and a runner-up finish at Mineral Wells.
Sitting behind Reindl in the standings, are 24 other drivers who still have a mathematical chance at winning the Super Challenge Points Championship. Instead of the typical 45 points awarded to the Super Challenge bracket winner, the bracket winner for the Finale will be given a 56-point bump. Each of the other finishing positions have also been increased, as a result. Up to 12 points will also be awarded based on qualifying times, with the top seed earning the full allotment.
With that in mind, drivers down to the Stephen Hui, of Bellevue, Wash., have a chance at capturing the title, provided a few things fall their way. Hui (Road Tire 2WD, Honda S2000), who is locked in a three-way tie for 15th in the standings, knows how to win in the bracket-style format, having already scored at Super Challenge win at Packwood, the only ProSolo event in which he competed.
In the Ladies Challenge, Meredith Brown, of Los Alamos, N.M., holds the championship lead with 112 points. Brown (Ladies 2, Plastic PP Racing/MidAtlantic Motorsport/Maurer Collision Chevrolet Corvette) notched two bracket wins, including the meets at Mineral Wells and Farmington.
Nicole Nagler, of Moorpark, Calif., and Kim Whietener, of Fort Worth, are Brown's closets competition in the championship standings, as they are tied for second, both 13 markers behind. Nagler (Ladies 3, Toyo Tires/ProParts USA Honda Civic) took the season-opening win at El Toro, followed by runner-up finish at Lincoln. Whitener's (Ladies 3, Texas Track Works/Motion Control Suspension Honda CRX) win at Lincoln and second-place finish at Blytheville were her two top-scoring events of the season.
The action for the SCCA ProSolo® event gets under way Saturday, Aug. 31, at 9 a.m., and concludes Sunday, Sept. 1.
As is tradition, the Tire Rack ProSolo Finale is the lead-in to the week-long Tire Rack Solo National Championships at the same location, Sept. 3 – 6. Nearly 1100 competitors compete to earn the title of National Champion in the world's largest motorsports event.

Customer Raves & Reviews
perfect invitations!
Magnet street is great! Customer service is always friendly and willing to help in any way. The quality is great and you get to chose whatever color or font you want so it cordinates with your style. My order shipped and was in my hands in a week perfecly packaged. I ordered everything from my save the date magnets to the invites, gift boxes, place cards, program and thank you cards. They'll send you whatever samples you want with no problem. It was easy and stress free and i got lots and lots of compliments on how beautiful they are. The price is worth every penny and not unreasonable. Love this company! I will use them any chance I get.
rustic invitation
My invitations were perfect! I was able to add some personal customization on the cover too! They came just as the proofs showed and shipping was super fast.
Our "carved in love autumn" invitations were perfect. Exactly as advertised. The artists contacted me to correct some typos and to offer some suggestions on how to improve map quality; I appreciate the help. The invitations came very fast.
I love Love in the Woods!
My fiance and I love our invitations! Love in the Woods was one of the more unique designs we saw across several online companies. For us, it is the perfect blend of elegance and rustic charm. The quality of the paper is fantastic. The colors are gorgeous and perfectly match the images we saw and personalized online. What we got in the mail was exactly what we had hoped to get based on the proofs we approved. Everything looked the same and there were no errors. They came in a really nice box and were packaged very nicely. The online software we used to personalize each component was a little clunky, but it did the job and was mostly easy to use. I wish we could have removed the canoe from the step card and the oars from the vellum because we aren't actually having canoeing at our wedding. It's possible that we could have discussed this with one of the designers, but we kept everything as it was to save time. We were able to personalize all the text including content, font style and size - even the and sign on the front of the invitation (we replaced it with &). This was very helpful because we eliminated some of the headings on the step cards and added more descriptive text instead. We got our invitations about a week after we ordered them online which was an excellent turn around time. Many people emailed and texted us immediately upon receiving them to tell us how beautiful they are. One person even said they were the nicest she had ever received! Overall, we are extremely happy with the invitations and the service provided by Magnet Street. I would happily recommend these invitations and Magnet Street to anyone who asked. We feel that what we got was very much worth the price. Thank you, Magnet Street!
Lovely and creative
I absolutely love the design/ layout of this invitation! Perfect for a fall wedding, and the inside pocket is a convenient place to put rsvps, maps, table number cards, etc. Along with the picture we chose for the inside, it turned out beautifully.

Grace B. Ballard, 85, of Delaware passed away Saturday (Feb. 18, 2012) at Riverside Methodist Hospital.
She was born on May 20, 1926 in Mason County, Ky., to the late Forrest and Bessie (Jones) Cobb. Originally from Maysville, Ky. she lived in Columbus for 20 years and moved to North Old State Road in 1966 prior to becoming a Delaware resident. On Aug. 14, 1955 she married her beloved husband of 53 years, Joe Ballard Sr., who preceded her in death in 2009. Grace was most grateful to the Lord for leading him into the lives of her and her daughter. An accomplished seamstress, for years she worked unselfishly as a home health aide and private nurse. She joined the Eastwood Seventh-day Adventist church in 1954 and will be remembered as a devoted member. Grace served her church as a Community Services Director and Deaconess. She was well known for her cooking, especially her famous honey whole wheat bread. Always caring and generous, she was warm hearted and a good listener.
She is survived by daughter, Diana White of Westerville; stepdaughter, Sharon Bell of Colton, Calif.; stepsons ,Joe Jr. of Sun City West, Ariz., and Charles Ballard of California; 14 grandchildren including Adam White of Columbus; and 13 great-grandchildren. In addition, she helped numerous families and foster children.
She was also preceded in death by first husband, William Robert Frederick; a sister; and five brothers.
Friends may call from 5 to 8 p.m. Tuesday at the Eastwood Seventh-Day Adventist Church, 6400 South Sunbury Road, Westerville, where funeral services will be held at 11 a.m. Wednesday with interment in Green Mound Cemetery near Kilbourne. Arrangements are entrusted to the DeVore-Snyder Funeral Home in Delaware.
The family suggests memorial contributions can be made to the Joe G. Ballard Sr. Eastwood Jr. Academy Endowment Fund.

Gallery: New LEED Gold Old Faithful Education Center in Yellowstone
An exhibit area.
Image © Justin Lubke/Yellowstone Park Foundation
Since four out of every five visitors to the National Park make a stop to see Old Faithful spout into the air, the education center does its best to keep the famed geyser in the limelight. As you enter the facility, beautiful 36.5-foot-high pentagonal windows frame the geyser outside, reminding visitors of the reason they're there.
The educational facility, designed by CTA Architects of Billings Montana, was built to open the minds of the 3 million annual visitors to the wonders of the park. The architecture reflects the look of the surrounding buildings, especially the Old Faithful Inn, which was built in 1904.

Published June 2009
An analysis of dozens of responses of prosecutors' offices to domestic violence found that the following dimensions characterized
their responses: (1) responsiveness to victims (treating them as if they were civil plaintiffs as opposed to treating them
dispassionately as witnesses to a crime), (2) treatment of suspects, (3) expectations for victim participation in prosecution,
(4) specialization, and (5) information utilization. [227] The specialized units in upstate New York, unlike in other prosecutors' offices, were more likely to track: (1) cases for
specialized prosecution, (2) data to inform the pressing of charges for recidivists, (3) data to inform sentencing recommendations,
and (4) routinely received police incident reports as well as police arrest reports. In addition, specialized domestic violence
units were more likely to participate in task forces or coalitions involving other criminal justice and community agencies
involved in responding to domestic violence. [227]
Performance Measure: Most large prosecutors' offices have special domestic violence units, allowing for innovations such as vertical prosecution
for misdemeanors, improved case preparation, greater contact with victims, reduced caseloads and more malleable court scheduling.
[160] One-third of prosecutors in small and medium-sized cities across upstate New York also had specialized domestic violence
prosecution programs, half of which made victim advocates available to victims. [227] (Research basis: A 2000 mail survey of 200 of the largest jurisdictions in 45 counties of upstate New York.)

Symptoms of ovarian cancer are not specific to the disease, and often mimic those of other more-common conditions. When ovarian cancer symptoms are present, they tend to be persistent and worsen with time.
The Ovarian Cancer Community Outreach, Inc. is dedicated to supporting those affected by ovarian cancer. Our mission is threefold:
• Assist individuals with financial support to offset the costs of cancer treatments and other expenses when diagnosed with ovarian cancer or undergoing treatments for ovarian cancer (and other gynecological cancers).
• Unite with our community to work together to promote awareness of ovarian cancer.
• Financially support research endeavors at the National Cancer Research Institutes in connection with ovarian cancer to improve the survival rates for women with ovarian cancer.

Lightweight and strong are two adjectives that accurately describe the KCNC SC Pro Lite Seatpost. KCNC CNC machines the SC Pro Lite Seatpost using lightweight scandium and titanium in the hardware. This helps keep the weight of a 27.2mm seatpost at 189 grams according to our scales here at Jenson USA. 18mm of offset and independent saddle tilt and fore/aft adjustments will get your fit just right.

Rough Conditions Can't Slow Falcons; Team Pfeiffer Cycling Still Leads in ACCC
April 6, 2010
Guest Article by Cycling Coach Tommie Brock
MISENHEIMER, N.C. Saturday proved a trying time for Team Pfeiffer Cycling coming in third place for the day. Poor road conditions, 15% climbs, steep downhill's, a poorly marked and manned course with rocky, dirt road sections took its eventual toll. Pfeiffer bounced back on Sunday to maintain its overall lead in the ACCC.
Justin Beard was able to hold on for third in the men's A while Michael Robinson didnt finish due to a flat tire on the first rough section. Michael Brown controlled much of the race until the uphill portions and finished in 11th. On the womens side, Stephanie Bunnett and KC Fee took 2nd in the womens B's and womens A's while Paige Beard took 1st in the C. Eric Sekercan fought a long, hard 300 meter sprint to hold off for a men's D 1st place finish.
Easter Sunday proved the Falcons were still in the game as the objective became to hold off as many D2 schools as possible. Sekercan started the day by setting the record straight as far as points were concerned. After dropping ASU, Sekercan went on to take his second first place of the weekend after a motivated exchange with ASU.
Bunnett was able to hold on for another second place in the women's B field while Brown was in the men's B break for the entire race and finished seventh, allowing only one D2 school ahead. Knowing points were needed, Fee dominated the women's A race by taking the top spot. Pfeiffer was then well on its way to stay in the lead.
Beard was taken out in a crash during her race despite being very aggressive early until the major mishap. A Virginia racer lost control of her bike and took Beard down. Beard, although in pain from a great deal of road rash on her hands, knees, hip and leg, took off to finish her race. Her first place points aided in off-setting any lost points to Duke or ASU earlier in the day.
The men's main event began with Beard and Robinson in the men's A field. Beard was clearly in control of most of the race by constantly forcing the pace and stringing the field out. NCSU and VT worked together to try and shut Beard down until Beard took a strong and much needed second place. Robinson finished 13th.
Pfeiffer Cycling still leads the D2 ACCC by 60 points going into the final regular race series at West Virginia this weekend. The ACCC Championship are in Blacksburg, VA held by VT, April 17th and 18th.
D2 Standings through Weekend 7
Pfeiffer 720
Duke 660
Wake Forest 514
Georgetown 310
Johns Hopkins 206
