Customer Raves & Reviews
Mini magnet carriers
These mini magnet carriers are stunning! They made my business card size save the date magnets even more special! I am so happy I discovered this website!
Beautiful card!
Used coral and gold and ivory colors which gave the card an antique flair. Everyone loves them! Customer service was great.
Touch of class
We would absolutely recommend getting the carrier cards to go with the save the date magnets. It not only adds stability to the contents inside the envelope, but it presents the magnet as something classy. Magnets were easy to place in these carriers, which fit perfectly in the envelopes. The background design looks perfect with the Something Blue motif.

Why Get Tested?
To evaluate for certain autoimmune disorders, such as systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) and Sjogren syndrome, among other types
When to Get Tested?
When your healthcare provider thinks that you have symptoms of an autoimmune disorder
Sample Required?
A blood sample drawn from a vein in your arm
Test Preparation Needed?
The Test Sample
What is being tested?
Antinuclear antibodies (ANA) are a group of antibodies produced by a person's immune system when it fails to adequately distinguish between "self" and "nonself." These antibodies, known as autoantibodies, attack the body's own healthy cells and cause signs and symptoms such as tissue and organ inflammation, joint and muscle pain, and fatigue. ANA specifically target substances found in the nucleus of a cell, hence the name "antinuclear." The ANA test identifies the presence of these autoantibodies in the blood.
The presence of ANA may be a marker of an autoimmune process and is associated with several autoimmune disorders but is most commonly seen with the autoimmune disorder systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE).
The ANA test is one of the primary tests for helping to diagnose a suspected autoimmune disorder or ruling out other conditions with similar signs and symptoms. As such, it is often followed by other tests for autoantibodies that may help to establish a diagnosis. These may include, for example, an ENA panel, anti-dsDNA, anti-centromere and/or anti-histone test.
How is the sample collected for testing?
A blood sample is taken by needle from a vein in the arm.
NOTE: If undergoing medical tests makes you or someone you care for anxious, embarrassed, or even difficult to manage, you might consider reading one or more of the following articles: Coping with Test Pain, Discomfort, and Anxiety, Tips on Blood Testing, Tips to Help Children through Their Medical Tests, and Tips to Help the Elderly through Their Medical Tests.
Another article, Follow That Sample, provides a glimpse at the collection and processing of a blood sample and throat culture.
Is any test preparation needed to ensure the quality of the sample?
No test preparation is needed.

This summer I will primarily be using Antelope to look for and locate earthquakes in Jalisco, Mexico. The Jalisco Block of Southwest Mexico is a relatively young subduction zone, subducting both the Cocos and Rivera plates under the North American plate. However, Jalisco does not appear to be a truly traditional subduction zone nor does it appear to exhibit similar seismic behavior down-dip of the seismogenic zone as in the neighboring Oaxaca zone. Hopefully having a better database of hypocenters from Jalisco will help contribute to a better understanding of what is occurring in that region.
The goal is to expand the data set by Tkalcic and Romanowicz (2002) by using seismic stations and earthquakes in areas not initially used. Because of the ten-year difference between the initial data set, we are able to utilize the new data recorded at the newer seismic stations, in particular in Australia and Antarctica. In this study, over 480 measurements were made. Although more observational work still needs to be done in finding events that produce good PcP-P and ScS-S, we are beginning to fill in the "holes" of the existing spatial coverage. Events in locations such as the Mediterranean Sea add to the velocity model particularly in the northern Atlantic Ocean. In the new data set, the largest negative PcP-P residuals are located along the coast of Antarctica and between Alaska and Russia. These larger negative residuals indicate significantly faster paths through the lowermost mantle. When compared to some whole-mantle P-wave velocity models, the acquired data appears to coincide with the models in many areas. The surface projections of the bounce points in east Asia and North America show fast patches at the CMB which fit previous models. After analyzing PcP-P, we moved onto ScS-S to compare the former residuals with the latter to presume the nature of the heterogeneities. The measurements vary in comparison to those of PcP-P, as some are very close to their PcP-P counterparts, others are very different in magnitude, and even opposite in sign. Because of the locations of the chosen events, a high percentage of the data relates to the CMB beneath Asia and the Middle East.
Further analysis is necessary in order to fill in the bigger "holes" in the spatial coverage of the lowermost mantle. Large areas, mainly in the oceans, have yet to be examined. The difficulty in doing so comes from the lack of seismometer stations in these areas and the noisy data often retrieved from stations on islands. A possible solution to this problem would be the installation of borehole ocean bottom seismometers at key locations.
Locating offshore seismic events with precision is very difficult due to a lack of nearby seismic stations, limited azimuthal coverage, and uncertain velocity structures. Thirty-four ocean bottom seismometers (OBSs) were deployed in August of 2010 in order to attenuate these issues and gain a better understanding of offshore seismicity patterns. I am scheduled to help recover these OBSs in September so that the data it has been collecting for almost a year can be examined and analyzed.
In preparation for the research cruise, I will map data from the Southern California Seismic Network (SCSN) earthquake catalog and other scientific sources using the Generic Mapping Tools (GMT). I will also calculate polarity-based focal mechanisms from waveform data using a Fortran computer program. The results from these two analysis techniques will hopefully show a correlation between offshore seismicity and known/suspected offshore faults. They will also help us gain a better understanding of offshore seismicity patterns, fault structure, and rupture dynamics.
This summer I will be researching with Anne Trehu at Oregon State University. On August 28-30 an earthquake swarm occured off the northern Juan de Fuca ridge. There were at least 75 earthquakes recorded onshore with the largest being a magnitude 5.9. The earthquake swarm was also recorded by an array of 16 ocean bottom seismometers called Central Oregeon Locked Zone Array (COLZA). Hundreds of T-phases were recorded on COLZA. We will locate the T-phase source using cross correlation techniques that are usually used for locating seismic tremor. The locations of the earthquakes can give a better understanding of the source of the swarm. The migration of seismic activity can be related to magmatic processes on the mid ocean ridge.
I will also be going on a research cruise in July to help deploy ocean bottom seismometers off the coast of Oregon and Washington.
As oceanic plates subducts down into the mantle at convergent plate boundaries, friction on the interface with the overriding plate causes a stick-slip behavior. The overriding plate is pulled down by the subducting plate in areas of strong coupling, accumulating strain on the megathrust fault until slip occurs and the overriding plate pops back up. This process generates major earthquakes such as the 2004 tsunami-generating Sumatra-Andaman event. Recent observations have also revealed slow slip episodes on the deeper plate interface with the motion indicating the release of accumulated strain, but these episodes typically last much longer than an earthquake. Corresponding seismic tremor composed of relatively small, monotonic signals also appear to occur near the deeper plate interface. Together the correlated strain and seismic observations characterize episodic tremor and slip (ETS) events, which recur with regular intervals that range from months to years. The processes that govern ETS and the potential relationships to major earthquakes remain unknown. Nevertheless, these events have been proposed to have significant impact on the likelihood of megathrust earthquakes since they appear to occur over adjacent depth ranges along the same plate interface. This project seeks to examine whether there are observable characteristics of the plate interface that could influence the frictional behavior and hence what type of seismic activity occurs.
This summer I will be working with Dr. John Nabelek at Oregon State University. Dr. Nabelek and his colleagues deployed a densely spaced array of seismometers in the Central Nevada Seismic Belt (CNSB). The CNSB is characterized by extension and normal faulting. One such normal fault is the Pleasant Valley fault, which ruptured in 1915 causing a magnitude 7.6 earthquake. This array crosses the Pleasant Valley fault, and records waves generated by teleseismic earthquakes, as well as high frequency waves from nearby mine blasts. We conduct receiver functions on these high frequency signals to image the crust. We hope to gain a better understanding of the structure of the CNSB, and of normal fault geometry in general. In particular we aim to determine the dip of these faults, whether they are listric or planar, and whether they bottom out in the mid crust or whether they become ductile shear zones at depth and continue through the lower crust and possibly into the mantle.
My project is focused on many years of data collected in southeast Alaska as part of STEEP. I will be calculating teleseismic P-wave travel time delays using dbxcor for many different events on multiple seismic stations. This data processing will take up the first few weeks of my internship. Once all the data has been processed a 3D tomography model will be made of the area to get a better understanding of the plate tectonics in the area, which are quite complicated. There have been other studies that have collected data in the area including some active source studies. If there in enough time the hope is to integrate that data into the tomography model as well.
This summer I am creating receiver functions for seismic stations along the Ryukyu arc in southeastern Japan. After I have made the receiver functions I will be doing some forward modeling to try and determine whether any serpentinization has occured in the upper mantle of the subduction zone. I am working under the guidance of Dr. Maureen Long with the help of one of her grad students Erin Wirth.
I am working for Dr. Maria Beatrice Magnani at the Center for Earthquake Research and Information (CERI) in Memphis, Tennessee. During the internship I will be assisting Dr. Magnani in her research on the fault structure in the subsurface of the New Madrid Seismic Zone (NMSZ). The presence of magnitude 7.0, and greater, earthquakes within the NMSZ have led researchers to believe that there is a complex fault system in the near subsurface zone of the lithosphere and that this system is presently active. Considering the damage of the earthquakes that occurred in 1811-1812 in the region, researchers believe that it would be important to map the fault system to better understand the following: where exactly the fault zones are located and their relation to each other, what parts of the system are active, the average resonance period for earthquakes at the fault zones, and probable causes of the stress in the system.
To better understand this fault system, Dr. Magnani started a project in 2007 with the goal of running seismic surveys along the Mississippi, which runs directly through the NMSZ, to map out the fault system. Along with a lot of preparation, this project included three summers of cruises down the Mississippi, each one mapping about 300 kilometers of the river. This summer marks the last of the cruises and the conclusion of data collection.
So, for the first three weeks of the internship and I will be drifting backwards down the Mississippi collection seismic data from a hydrophone active source array (an airgun is used as the source) and a Manta Ray sized CHIRP sensor. The shore component will consist of primarily data analysis and interpretation (basic processing is performed on the boat during the day). I am so excited!
For more information, you can look at the Mississippi River Project website at: http://www.memphis.edu/riverproject/
Since 2007 seismological data collected from Costa Rica's Nicoya Peninsula has shown the existence of slow-slip events (SSE) and tremor. For a year and half, starting in 2000, data was collected on the peninsula and off-shore near the subduction zone of the Cocos plate and Caribbean Plate. This was before more modern techniques for tremor and SSE identification were developed.
I will assist in analyzing data from 2000-2001 to expand the known time-series of tremor and SSE events in Costa Rica's Nicoya Peninsula.
Slow-slip events differ from the news-headline earthquakes that people fear. SSE may release the same magnitude of energy as earthquakes, but they do so over a longer time period (several days, weeks, maybe longer) and they do so aseismically- they literally are slowly slipping along.
The relationship between SSEs and tremor is poorly understood. In this case, the term tremor does not refer to anything associated with volcanoes or underground aliens, but instead represents very small strange earthquakes (only noticeable through seismometers or other modern instruments). Unlike tremor, "normal" small earthquakes emit high frequencies, but for reasons not yet fully understood, tremor emits very low frequencies.
Expanding the scientific community's knowledge on SSE and tremor occurrence is vital for developing an understanding of the processes that control these events. A better understanding of these events may lead to a better understanding of earthquakes and other earth disasters that make the evening news.
I am working on the Source Physics Experiment at the Nevada Test Site. The goal of SPE is to develop better ways of detecting small explosions so that we can reinforce the Comprehensive Nuclear Test Ban Treaty once it is adopted. I am using geophone data from the last SPE shot to better map the test area. The part of the test site where we are testing is called Climax Stock and is made of Granitoid rock. It has a perched water table and faults in it, which perhaps I will be able to see in the refraction data. One thing that knowing the layout of the stock will help is trying to determine the cause of the S waves that have been found from previous explosions.
This summer I will be working with Dr. Alberto Venegas. We are attacking the problem of developing an computer program that detect focal mechanisms for local and regional earthquakes based on first motion phase descriptions in real time. The computation of focal mechanisms is a critical aspect of the daily operations at PRSN (Puerto Rican Seismic Network).
This summer I am working at Harvard University with Dr. Miaki Ishii on developing a continuous back projection of the Moro Gulf earthquake sequence from the summer of 2010. There were three large-magnitude(M7.3, M7.6, M7.4), deep (585-640km) earthquakes that ruptured in the same area within an hour and a half of each other. 'Triplet' earthquakes at this depth or magnitude have not been recorded, which makes this sequence especially unique.
One of my major roles is to acquire data and perform any preprocessing steps that are necessary for this type of analysis. In addition, I am responsible for running the back‐projection codes and plotting the results for interpretation by the group. I will be putting in a lot of hours in the lab working mainly with UNIX, MATLAB, GMT, and some Fortran. Miaki also has a graduate student, Eric Kiser, who acts as my project leader and exposes me to all of the necessary information and resources to complete this analysis. I am extremely excited about all of the opportunities that this summer is going to bring.

Southern Baptist
I attend Mountain View Assembly of God in Spokane, Washington. I am a drummer/singer on the worship team there. I view anybody that claims Jesus, the Father, and the Holy Spirit are all God in the Trinity, the only way to Heaven is salvation by Jesus dying on the cross, and there is a real Hell as being Christians, despite the difference in denomination.
I'm AoG by background and degree/certification, however, I am entirely nondenominational in my practice.
I was raised Southern Baptist, from small town, however there has been rapid growth here for the last 15 yrs...so, I have ventured out and went to a Methodist church and Church of Christ...I am pretty familiar with the Methodist way, but I am intrigued by the COC-I have seen that there are a few of you out there, what else can I expect from the COC? When I went they sang acapella, and communion is weekly..but that is all that I know..It was a pleasant experience, bigger than I am used to and more "modern" than my old south Baptist church. I am with you guys, I believe as long as Christ is the focus and through Him you can be saved then any denomination or lack there of is ok with me...I was soo surprised to go to these different churches to find out that they are not that much different than my own. God Bless you all!!!
also, the church I attended was Church of Christ, but I saw on the poll there is a united COC...what's the difference?

Every second Wednesday of the month, the Museum of the Confederacy and the Appomattox Court House National Historical Park are partnering to bring the Civil War Sesquicentennial to Appomattox. Each month, a knowledgable speaker will lead a discussion on a topic or event's 150th anniversary. The talks take place at the Museum of the Confederacy-Appomattox.
Pro-Confederate and pro-Union bushwhackers and guerrillas terrorized their opponents and implemented their own law and order in areas the regular army did not control, while partisan rangers and cavalry raiders contributed tactical advantages to the war effort. By the end of the conflict, neither the Confederate government nor the Union military could effectively control or counter irregular warfare, and the chaos caused some states to threaten to secede from the Confederacy. This talk will examine the three components of irregular warfare and some of their key figures, including William Quantrill, John Mosby, Jesse McNeill, and John Hunt Morgan. It will also discuss how continuing the war through guerrilla means was a viable option, and why the Confederate leaders ultimately rejected it. Join Karissa Marken, Liberty University Graduate Student, for this lunchtime talk.
Admission is free, but does not include entrance to the Museum's exhibits.

September 12, 2013
Troup County deputies held its first "Active Shooter Training," allowing them the ability to now respond to incidents involving a shooter targeting heavily populated areas, like a school setting.
Before this week, should a tragic incident like a school shooting occur, county schools would receive a response from the LaGrange Police Department and other nearby law enforcement agencies. Now they will be able to respond to and assist other territories.
"Part of my campaign was focused on the safety of our children," said Sheriff James Woodruff, who brought on the training.
Inside the Cannon Street Elementary School this week, Harris County Sheriff's Office's Deputy T.C. Nixon and others from the HCSO instructed Troup County deputies on skills and techniques for responding an active shooter using various scenarios.
"We're using a school, but you could get one in the courthouse, you could get one in a office," said Nixon. "It just trains you on what to do."
The deputy who arrives first to the scene is required to go in, even if alone, and to not wait on back up.
"You get there and you get in," said Major Charles Nixon of Troup County Sheriff's Office. "Every second you sit and wait on back up could be someone getting killed."
Firecrackers were used to sound as gunshots as the responding deputy was instructed to follow the sound of the gunshots as quickly as possible to locate the shooter. As the deputy moved closer to the sound of the gunshots, victims ran past the deputy who is instructed to push past the victims to make way to the shooter. Some deputies acted as wounded victims lying in a hallway.
"They have to get their as fast as they can," said Major Charles Nixon of the Troup County Sheriff's Office. "Every shot heard is a life lost."
After observing a deputy yell for the shooter to get on the ground, T.C Nixon instructed that once contact is made with the shooter to just "take him out." Verbal commands are a no go in these types of tragedies when multiple people have been injured or killed.
"If you know he doesn't care, don't give him verbal commands," said T.C Nixon.
"The main objective is to kill him," said Charles Nixon. "Your job is to take that threat away because he's already showing that he doesn't care. As long as they're standing there we shoot them, take out that threat."
T.C deputies also learned apprehension techniques and how to handle their firearm during apprehension.
"If you're gonna grab him, holster your gun. Never put your gun on the ground. Reload fast." said T.C Nixon.
Non-lethal ammunition was used in the training.
Woodruff said he plans for deputies to train in active shooter response at least once a year. Sheriff's personnel thanked the Troup County School System for allowing use of the abandoned school for training.

Defiant Clinton takes on lawmakers on Libya attack
Wednesday - 1/23/2013, 4:59pm EST
By MATTHEW LEE and DONNA CASSATA
Associated Press
WASHINGTON (AP) - Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton delivered fiery rejoinders Wednesday to Republican critics of the Obama administration's handling of the deadly attack on a U.S. mission in Benghazi, facing off with lawmakers who included potential 2016 presidential rivals.
At times emotional and frequently combative, Clinton rejected GOP suggestions in two congressional hearings that the administration tried to mislead the country about the Sept. 11 attack that killed Chris Stevens, the U.S. ambassador to Libya, and three other Americans. She insisted the State Department is moving swiftly and aggressively to strengthen security at diplomatic posts worldwide.
In her last formal testimony before Congress as America's top diplomat _ but perhaps not her last time on the political stage _ Clinton once again took responsibility for the department's missteps and failures leading up to the assault. But she also said that requests for more security at the diplomatic mission in Benghazi didn't reach her desk, and reminded lawmakers that they have a responsibility to fund security-related budget requests.
Three weeks after her release from a New York hospital _ admitted for complications after a concussion _ Clinton was at times defiant, complimentary and willing to chastise lawmakers during more than 5 1/2 hours of testimony before two separate committees. She tangled with some who could be rivals in 2016 if she decides to seek the presidency again.
Her voice cracking at one point, Clinton said the attack and the aftermath were highly personal tragedies for the families of the victims who died _ Stevens, Sean Smith, Tyrone Woods and Glen Doherty _ as well as herself.
"I stood next to President Obama as the Marines carried those flag-draped caskets off the plane at Andrews. I put my arms around the mothers and fathers, sisters and brothers, sons and daughters and the wives left alone to raise their children," she told the Senate Foreign Relations Committee at a packed hearing.
Clearly annoyed with Republican complaints about the initial explanation for the attack, she rose to the defense of U.N. Ambassador Susan Rice, who was vilified for widely debunked claims five days after the attack that protests precipitated the raid rather than terrorism.
Clinton said, "People were trying in real time to get to the best information." And she said her own focus was on looking ahead on how to improve security rather than revisiting the talking points and Rice's comments.
Sen. Ron Johnson, R-Wis., pressed her on why "we were misled that there were supposedly protests and something sprang out of that, an assault sprang out of that."
"With all due respect, the fact is we had four dead Americans," she said, her voice rising and quivering with anger as she and Johnson spoke over each other.
"Was it because of a protest? Or was it because of guys out for a walk one night decided they would go kill some Americans? What difference, at this point, does it make? It is our job to figure out what happened and do everything we can to prevent it from ever happening again, Senator."
If Johnson's comments drew an irritated response from Clinton, she notably ignored Sen. Rand Paul, R-Ky., when he said he would have fired her if he had been in charge and found that she had not read cables from her team in Libya asking for more security. Paul is a potential 2016 presidential candidate.
"Had I been president and found you did not read the cables from Benghazi and from Ambassador Stevens, I would have relieved you of your post," Paul said. "I think it's inexcusable."
Clinton and other officials have testified that requests for additional security did not reach her level, and a scathing independent review of the matter sharply criticized four senior State Department officials who have been relieved of their duties.
"I did not see these requests. They did not come to me. I did not approve them. I did not deny them," she said.
Later, before the House Foreign Affairs Committee, Republican Rep. Jeff Duncan of South Carolina repeatedly challenged Clinton's claim to have looked at the tragedy with "clear eyes," saying she should have personally ensured security at the mission.
He said Clinton had "let the consulate become a death trap" in denying requests for additional security and called it "malpractice."
Clinton said she could have let the review board's report remain classified and told Congress "goodbye" before leaving office. But she said, it's "not who I am. It's not what I do."

The dogs rescued from a Bronx dog fighter's basement last year are finally getting justice. Raul Sanchez, who pleaded guilty to dog fighting a few weeks ago, is now heading to prison.
Last week a judge sentenced Sanchez to one to three years for animal fighting, one year for animal cruelty and one year for criminal possession of a weapon. (Sanchez will serve these sentences concurrently.)
He's also been slapped with a ban on keeping animals for the duration of his parole. Sanchez waived his right to appeal.
We hope Sanchez's sentence serves as a reminder to dog fighters that their crimes against innocent animals carry serious consequences.
All these sentences for abuse of animals are a joke!!! There is never a long enough sentence for any of these people. And, as soon as they get out, they will just start all over again because the sentences are so damn short. In addition, they should never be aloud to have animals again for the remainder of their lives. Not just until they are off probation. Something needs to be done here. If this were happening to people, sentences would be much longer. I realize a lot of people say "they are just animals" but you know what . . . . these are defenseless animals who don't have a clue what is going on. They are just trying to stay alive!!!! I vote that all these dog fighting people should be put in a ring and us people should be allowed to do to them what they are doing to these poor defenseless animals. That would truly be justice. Let them suffer in agony before they die and have us cheer them on. See how they like it!!!!
I'm glad he's at least getting "something", although it's not nearly enough time. But let this be a lesson to others out there who take part in dog fighting. He should be banned from owning animals for LIFE, because he's not sorry he did it, he's sorry he got caught.
When it comes to cruelty they should be rtreated just as they behaved. give him the chair!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
These people are cruel and brutal by nature,they don't change; how about a stint in an experimental lab? At least the good citizens of the state wouldn't be paying for their up keep.
He's just getting a slap on the wrist....he should have 20 yrs. in prison and banned from having a pet for the rest of his life!!! There should be a published list, just like child molesters, that shows all the bastards that are convicted of such barbaric crimes!!
He DID NOT GET HIS JUST REWARDS!!!
What he did get is a roof over his head,3 meals a day and no bills to worry about!!All paid by tax payers!!This is not sending a message to these people who fight dogs.They need to get more time!!
My daughter's dog was stolen right out of her yard by dog fighters in South Carolina!!The authorites there are doing nothing about it!!My 6 year old grandson is heart broken!!
They call this justice for all the dog lives and the owners lives this guy screwed up fair!!
It's a start but I think he should have gotten more time. If it had be a person he would have and dog are as good as humans maybe even better because they love you unconditionaly.
Thank you Judge! Hopefully even stricter laws will be enacted that will keep this man from EVER owning a dog,or any animal, again and keep him on parole for years to come. Anyone whose conscience has abandoned them to this extent is probably not capable of true empathy. Whether it's a lack of prefrontal cortex development or damage or a tumor on the amygdala or what have you, let's keep these sociopaths from becoming repeat offenders and from EVER hurting another animal.
How sad that torture of a helpless animal is worth only 3 years! Until this is changed, and taken more seriously, the abuse will not stop. I do agree with the person who suggested that this a_ _ have to work in a program with animals.....and should never be allowed to own one again. He is not worthy.
Mississippi needs strict laws like this. We have tons of operations like this throught out State.

To do that, I created a facebook page called "Cardinals Disc Golf Club". If anyone reading this is a UofL student interested in forming/joining a disc golf club at UofL or if you know a UofL student who would be interested in joining, please "like"/have them "like" the facebook page.

Survivorship among Adelie penguins is lower in individuals who begin to breed at younger ages, between 3 and 5 years. However, individuals that do attempt to breed at an earlier age tend to breed more successfully in later years than penguins that first breed at 5 to 6 years old. Adelie penguins have been known to live as long as 16 years. (Ainley, 2002)

Mark Dannhoff began his tenure on the staff at Texas A&M - Corpus Christi in 2011. The 2010-11 season was Dannhoff's 20th year as a college coach.
The native of La Crosse, Wis., is known for his work in coaching defense. In 2011-12, the Islanders finished just outside the upper half of the Southland in scoring defense, and allowed three points per game fewer than they did the previous season. The Islanders also finished fourth in the league in blocked shots and held UTSA, the league's leader in three-point shooting, to just 28 percent from the outside in the two games with the Roadrunners.
In the 2013-14 season, the Islanders defensive efforts began to grow into fruition, as the team finished second in the league, allowing 68.0 points per game. Additionally, opponents shot .443 from the field – fifth in the Southland – and just .329 from beyond the arc, a total that led the league. The team also allowed a program-record-low 37 points in a win over Lamar in January.
In all, he has been an assistant coach on nine collegiate coaching staffs and a head coach at Northland Community College for five seasons. He was also the interim head coach at Texas – Pan American during his stint with the Broncs.
Dannhoff started his career as an assistant at his alma mater, Wisconsin-La Crosse, where he coached for two seasons after receiving his bachelor's degree. While on the coaching staff, Dannhoff earned his master's degree in education with an emphasis on physical education and athletic administration.
He then moved on to be the head coach at Northland Community College in Minnesota in 1992. Under Dannhoff, the team win total improved every season, including during the 1995-96 season when his team won the Northern Division Championship and garnered an MCCC Regional Tournament invitation.
Dannhoff spent one season each at Arkansas Tech and Arkansas – Little Rock before moving to Centenary College for a year, and then a single season at New Orleans where the team improved its record by eight wins. Following his stint with the Privateers, Dannhoff spent four seasons at Tulane as an assistant coach and also served as the coordinator of scouting and camps. He followed his time at Tulane with two seasons at Georgia State and a year at Mercer.
From Mercer, he moved to UTPA where he spent the 2008-09 season on the Broncs coaching staff. Dannhoff then took a year off from the college game and returned home where he helped coach an AAU team in Wisconsin.
In addition to coaching responsibilities, Dannhoff is a key contributor to the Islanders scouting, recruiting and game preparation efforts. He is an NABC Assistant Coaches Committee member representing the Southland Conference.

WARSAW — Carly Rochelle and Jasmine Brown each scored three goals as Dixon rolled past James Kenan 7-1 on Wednesday night in the opening round of the NCHSAA 1-A girls' soccer playoffs.
The game was actually tied 1-1 early in the first half after Tri-County Conference No. 1 seed James Kenan (13-3-1) scored on a penalty kick, but the Bulldogs then reeled off five straight goals to take command.
Justina Lewis had four assists for Dixon (9-6-4), a wildcard entry out of the Coastal Plains Conference.
"We came out in the first half and played really well," Dixon coach Josh King said. "We were able to connect some great passes together and were able to get some good opportunities on goal. Our girls came ready play.
"We put the goals away early to give ourselves a little bit of breathing room. We didn't come probably with the same intensity in the second half, but we still played well and happy with the playoff win and ready to move on to the second round."
Dixon will be on the road for its second-round match, but its opponent won't be determined until tonight when Franklin Academy and N.C. School for Science and Math resume their game, which was tied 1-1 and in overtime when it was halted Wednesday because of a thunderstorm.

Kenny Guiton threw for four touchdowns to help No. 4 Ohio State beat Cal 52-34.
At 100 years old, Arizona State's oldest living alumnus shares some stories from a very different era in Sun Devils football.
We'd like to take today to honor the men and women in our armed forces who have given the ultimate sacrifice.
The Utah Utes' Devontae Booker led the Pac-12 with 815 rushing yards after contact.
The Buffaloes could really use a win over Colorado State to build momentum heading into Pac-12 play.
The Pac-12 brought in $374 million in total revenue during the last fiscal year, the most of any Power 5 conference.
The UCLA Bruins' offensive line showed improvement last season and returns all five starters.
A poor bowl showing notwithstanding, the Cats broke through in Rich Rodriguez's third year with 10 wins (a first since 1998), a Pac-12 South division title and a final national ranking of No.
Todd Graham has steered the Sun Devils to back-to-back 10-win seasons (the program's first such stretch since the Frank Kush era of the early '70s), en route to becoming the fastest ASU coach to reach 28 wins.
Two years removed from a horrendous 2013 in which their only win was against an FCS foe, the Bears are ready to claw back into the North. But in the pass-happy Pac-12, Sonny Dykes' squad could legitimately need 45 points per game to do so, meaning QB Jared Goff must pay off as the team's return ticket to relevancy.
Last year's winless Pac-12 campaign doesn't offer much hope that the Buffs will compete any time soon in the South. If there's a silver lining in Boulder, though, it's that two conference losses came via double OT and two others by less than a touchdown.
Mark Helfrich must somehow replace last year's Heisman winner, QB Marcus Mariota, who accounted for 64 percent of the Ducks' total offense.
What to expect from Gary Andersen's first season in Corvallis remains a mystery. On offense, the Beavers lose the Pac-12's all-time leading passer in Sean Mannion.
After a 31-10 win over No. 10 UCLA in the '14 regular-season finale, QB Kevin Hogan said, "It would be a lie to say that this season hasn't been disappointing.
The Bruins are coming off their second straight 10-win season and, even better for the folks in Westwood, have yet to lose to crosstown rival USC under Jim Mora's stewardship (3–0).
USC has endured a very un-Trojan-like six-year stretch, reaching double-digit wins just twice since 2009. But Steve Sarkisian, with an army of skill players at his disposal, is steering the Trojans back toward Pac-12—and national—prominence.

Daughter of Fortune (Paperback)
An orphan raised in Valparaiso, Chile, by a Victorian spinster and her rigid brother, vivacious young Eliza Sommers follows her lover to California during the Gold Rush of 1849. Entering a rough-and-tumble world of new arrivals driven mad by gold fever, Eliza moves in a society of single men and prostitutes with the help of her good friend and savior, the Chinese doctor Tao Chi'en. California opens the door to a new life of freedom and independence to the young Chilean, and her search for her elusive lover gradually turns into another kind of journey. By the time she finally hears news of him, Eliza must decide who her true love really is.

Long Brazilian Road Trips: Eight Helpful Suggestions
But road trips give you a flavor distinctly lacking from other forms of transport; there's plenty of opportunity to get to know a country's landscape and your travelling companions that you'd never get from a reclining airline seat.
With this in mind, in February 2011 I squeezed into a Fiat Uno 1.0 with a German, an American and the car's Brazilian owner. We made the trip from Brasilia to Recife in time for carnival.
Over the course of our eight day odyssey we did some things right…and some stuff wrong. What follows is a scattered tale of our endeavours with associated suggestions for any aspiring road-trippers. But first, here is some useful information for anyone considering renting a car in Brazil.
Car rental companies
Car rental advice
• Be clear when negotiating a rental how long you will need the vehicle for, and where you will need to drop it off. Discounts are negotiable for longer rentals.
• Make sure your driver's license is valid in Brazil. An international driver's license is recommended; one less reason for the police to demand a roadside fine because they don't recognise your license…
• All drivers must be over the age of 25 and at least one driver must have a credit card.
• Make sure the rental costs you are quoted includes insurance.
• When you receive the car make a through inspection for any dents, scratches or damage to avoid companies charging you for existing faults when you return the vehicle.
Road safety in Brazil
• Brazilians like to drive fast, and will not slow down to your pace. Allow faster drivers to pass as soon as possible.
• Due to concerns of being robbed at stoplights when driving at night, red lights tend to mean 'slow down' instead of 'stop'.
• Night-time driving is dangerous and should be avoided due to the condition of the roads and the increased possibility of drunk-driving.
• Speed bumps are the norm around towns, so make sure you reduce your speed.
• Off-street parking is a good option for towns and cities. If you must park your vehicle on the street, make sure nothing valuable is on display.
With brains still fuzzy from sleep we attempt to fit the luggage of four people into a boot that was designed to fit a couple of full plastic bags from a trip to the supermarket. After thrashing around for a while the back seat occupants decide to build a pile between them of the excess baggage.
The car rolls out of the intense fluorescent strip lighting of the underground car park. We slide into darkness and the high-rises of Brasilia loom over us in the half-light of early morning. My head nods towards my chest within minutes.
My neck creaks as I lift my head. Sunrise has come and gone and the clock on the dash reads 07:43. Driver Henrique is thundering along highway, flat green expanses of crops stretching out on either side of us. I bleat my desire for coffee and we pull into a gas station.
"How are you doing mate?" I ask Henrique. "I was a little tired before, but I'm great now," he replies, refusing the thick black liquid I offer him.
Henrique's not bullshitting; he drives for the rest of the day until our first night stopover at the national park of Chapada Diamantina, some 1000km northeast of Brasilia.
Suggestion #1
Common sense dictates the following; set manageable legs for the trip and have multiple drivers taking shifts. However, our solution was to use a single bionic Brazilian driving huge distances. It worked just fine.
Pot-holed paving disintegrates into a dirt track and we wind our way through thickening vegetation. The road dips and rises, and from the ridges we see vegetation spreading across rolling plains to the distant rock columns of Morrao that rise into towering plateaus.
Eventually we skitter down a rocky track into the hippy village of Capao. After crawling around town for a half hour we find a campsite and pitch our tent beside a banana grove. There are a lot people juggling in town; it turns out that we've crashed Capao's second annual circus convention.
Suggestion #2
February 27th 2011, 12:30 pm
Luckily, we've made arrangements. Fifteen minutes later we're backing into the off-street parking space of Raquel, who welcomes us into her apartment and presents a steady stream of food and drink despite weak protests. On her suggestion, we wander up to Bahia's old town and find a drum crop thumping happily away at their instruments in preparation for an impending carnival.
We sleep fitfully on mattresses in air-conditioned rooms. It's a welcome change after a couple of sticky nights camping on hard ground with an army of bugs for company.
Suggestion #3
March 1st 2011, 18:30pm
Since leaving Salvador to find beach campsites up the coast, our pre-selected option in Aracaju isn't looking promising.
A fat Brazilian in a stained vest tells us in the fading daylight that a pitch will cost more than a hotel room. As mosquitoes fill the car we roll up the windows and get back onto the beach-front road. We drive out of town looking for a sneaky place to pitch. "That car looks like it is parked in a safe place," I cheerfully volunteer. We pull alongside the stationary vehicle. It is badly dented, and every single window has been smashed.
The beach further out of town is lined with deserted bars. One has a light faintly glimmering from within. We circle the bar with a growing sense of dread and knock on the door to ask permission to put the tent up. There is no answer, only the whistling wind in the darkness. "It's like we're in a horror movie," someone chuckles nervously.
We all run to the car, slam the doors and drive like a bat out of hell to the cheapest hotel in the Lonely Planet ("…wood floors and decent natural light..") with a stained and decaying reception with rooms to match. At least there's no fear of death.
Suggestion #4
Suggestion #5
March 2nd 2011
He's back after a couple of minutes. "What happened?" We ask. "She thought she saw me overtake illegally," he replies, "And I told her she was wrong." Our eyes widen. "Oh don't worry," he reassures us, "She agreed with me."
Suggestion #6
Portuguese will be your most useful road trip tool – asking directions, ordering food, getting accommodation suggestions… and that's not even negotiating questionable disputes with the law. If you can't travel with a native speaker, put in some serious work with your Portuguese. Try Byki for a free starter course.
Hunger rolls through the car; bellies are growling. We pull up to a well presented restaurant. Red tablecloths drape over a symmetrical floor plan. Waiters with monogrammed aprons stand attentive beside a vast buffet. One look at the price list confirms our worst suspicions, and we're back on the road.
Pulling into the next gas station for a top up, we see a shabby looking hole in the wall with a couple of plastic chairs and tables scattered around. Five minutes later all of us are elbows deep in huge plates of rice, beans, salad, chicken and beef.
Suggestion #7
March 4th 2011 12:04 pm
Our map is dog-eared and useless; the scale gives us no inner city information at all. All I've got is the address of my friends where we will be crashing over carnaval.
This sounds like a disaster, but I've got technology on my side; Henrique's iPhone. I tap our destination into the Google maps application and it spits out a neat route across the city to our destination, one way streets accounted for. Wonderful… until the battery dies two blocks short.
Henrique's Portuguese is put back into use and eventually we complete the last kilometre of thousands, rewarding ourselves and getting into the carnival spirit with cold beers.

"All the profits go to heart health!" Kathie Lee reminded viewers.
"Don't try to make it legit," Hoda said.
The two ladies' four hours of daily sobriety left a lasting impression on their fellow "Today" show hosts.
"The makeup room was hell," joked Matt Lauer. "I've never seen crankier, moodier women in my entire life."
"What helped them was that that they continued to drink," Savannah Guthrie said. "Behind the set, and during commercials. I think the fact that they didn't stay sober during their month of sobriety really eased the tension around here."
Katie Lee and Hoda could still drink off the air, which makes the challenge a little less exciting. But it's still fun to see the co-hosts back on their worst behavior.
