Springbok wing Ashwin Willemse is in another race against time to be fit to make Jake White's World Cup squad for France. He looks unlikely to play any more rugby in 2006.
Arguably the unluckiest rugby player in the country, Willemse tore posterior cruciate ligaments in his left knee near the end of the defeat to the Sharks at Ellis Park on Saturday.
The result of a scan revealed the seriousness of the latest injury and Willemse will be out of action again for between six and 12 months.
It is likely he will have to undergo another operation to repair the damage. Willemse missed most of the 2005 season after having surgery on his ankle. He returned to the Cats squad earlier this year, but missed out on the overseas tour with a hamstring injury.
Saturday's match was his first Super Rugby game in more than a year. The wisdom of leaving Willemse on the field for the full 80 minutes will surely be questioned. He sustained the injury in the 77th minute of a match that was already well and truly lost. And for those 77 minutes, the former SA rugby Player of the Year had looked a class above the rest on the field.
Willemse had played for the Young Lions in a Vodacom Cup match the previous weekend, but asking the player to last 80 minutes in his comeback match at Super 14 level was too much. He should have played no more than 50 or 60 minutes. Now his entire rugby career hangs in the balance again.

Ability Works helps the disabled become able
When the tornado destroyed the Ability Works building in 2007, the damage threatened to cripple the company's ability to help its clients become self-sufficient despite their disabilities.
With the same fortitude and motivation of their clients, the staff at Ability Works continued to work even after they were relocated in a temporary home at the old Walmart building — donated by the University of Mississippi — while a new building was constructed.
A year later, Ability Works was back up and fully functional in its new home.
Last week, Ability Works offered tours of its new facility to the community. (October 11, 2010, Page 6A)

3 people have betrayed Steve jobs in his lifetime.
First, it was Bill Gates, who stole the GUI elemnts from the Mac prototype codenamed "Sand" and used it on Windows.
Then, it was John Sculley, who fired Jobs when Mac sales went down in 1985.
The third betrayer was Eric Schmidt, who lied to Jobs that Android wasn't going to compete with iPhone.
Steve Jobs doesn't understand the Art of War. He thinks everyone is nice and cozy, until it's too late. That's what I told him in my email.
Actually, Steve keeps a longer list. I think it includes anyone who has ever written an unauthorized biography of him (they are all unauthorized, though Leander Kahney might be on his do-not-murder list), his ex-girlfriend Chris-Ann, his half-sister Mona Simpson, anyone he knows personally who has ever spoken to the press negatively about him, and those guys from Gizmodo who purchased the misappropriated iPhone 4 prototype...

Just what the room needed!
By Booklady
from Twin Cities, MN
I love the cordless feature, nothing hanging around getting in the way. They are easy to raise/lower. The shades dim the room, but are not totally room darkening, look for a different product if this is what you want. They do provide privacy from the street. They also help to keep my heated porch warmer on the cold nights. I haven't had any draft from the windows when they are lowered. I also like the option to put more than one blind on a headrail for the large window.
Great place to buy blinds!

from John Day, Oregon
We use these blinds to make a windowed room on the south side of our house much more livible during daylight hours when the sun can make it hot and too light.
Custom Cellular shades
By Kath
from CT
I liked finding the color I wanted in the exact size I needed but wished they were truly more light blocking and chose a dark color to be even more so, but not so great for that in the brown.
No regrets
By Suburban Homeowner
from Willow Springs, IL
About Me High-end Shopper
Pros: Attractive design, easy to clean, ensures privacy, quality construction, great insulation from excess heat and cold and drafts. Con: The cords require two hands full of strength, however the longevity probably increases due to this special attention required.

I've tried many other brands including Levelor, and these are the best made cellulars I've found. Others break aftera year or so of use. The one time I had a problem with a Bali, it was easy to repair myself. And they come with a much better warranty

Free Shipping on most Blind OrdersMost blind orders include FREE Ground Shipping to your home or office in the contiguous United States.

The width when oversized freight charges apply varies depending on the manufacturer (usually it is around 95 inches or wider) and the charge may be up to $75 per manufacturer per order. M & B and Levolor do not charge oversized freight. Shutters have a freight charge due to the weight of the product. Most blind orders ship within 3 to 5 business days.

He runs all aspects of the Swarm's day-to-day business operations including, sales, sponsorship, marketing, community relations, broadcast, and communications. In the summer of 2013, Arlotta was promoted to the role of President after spending five seasons as the Swarm's Vice President.
"I am excited about the vision we have for this team and community. We are committed to growing the sport of lacrosse in Minnesota and bringing a Champions Cup to the best fans in the National Lacrosse League," Arlotta says.
Prior to joining the Swarm, Arlotta spent 10 years working in the healthcare industry in sales and management. Most recently he served as National Account Manager at Managed Healthcare Associates, a group purchasing organization for specialty pharmacies. His prior experience has provided him with an exceptional sales and marketing philosophy with a keen understanding of customer service.
"Building our fan and partner base and taking care of those customers is our number one priority," Arlotta says.
Arlotta also represents the Swarm as an Associate Governor in the NLL and is on the league's Properties Committee, which oversees television and sponsorship partnerships, and the NLL Jr. Committee, which focuses on growing box lacrosse on the youth level in the league's nine cities. In the local community, he serves as a board member on six non-profit organizations: Homegrown Lacrosse (since 2009), Minnesota Lacrosse Association (Vice President, since 2009), Northstar AISES Alliance and Professional Chapter (since 2011), Saint Paul Area Chamber of Commerce - Political Action Committee (PAC, since 2011), Northern Star Council – Boy Scouts of America (since 2011), and for the Jefferson Awards (since 2011), a prestigious national recognition system honoring community and public service in America.
Arlotta was named the 2015 recipient of the Good Leader Award as part of the Community Impact Awards from the Minnesota Business Magazine. The Community Impact Awards honor Minnesota companies and business people that make giving back to the community a priority.
In 2014, Arlotta and the Swarm were honored by the Minneapolis/St. Paul Business Journal and Jefferson Awards Foundation for Corporate Giving. The Swarm was selected because of the time, talent and energy it dedicates to local charitable causes.
In the summer of 2013, Arlotta was named a recipient of the Twin Cities Finest Award presented by the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation. The award honors ten men and ten women in the Twin Cities, between the ages of 25 and 40, who have demonstrated success in their chosen field and commitment to their community. Along with his award, Arlotta along with the other recipients pledged to raise $5,000 in an effort to find a cure for cystic fibrosis.
Following the 2012 season, Arlotta was named the NLL Executive of the Year after helping the Swarm reach new heights both on and off the field. Arlotta significantly helped increase the team's ticket and sponsorship revenue in 2012. The Swarm's average home attendance rose to 8,595 fans per game at Xcel Energy Center, an increase of nearly four percent from 2011, the second-highest percentage increase in the league this season. Under Arlotta's guidance, the Swarm broadcast all of their home games on television (Channel 45) and on the radio (SAM 101.5) for the first time in team history.
In 2011, Minneapolis/St. Paul Business Journal recognized Arlotta with the prestigious 40 Under Forty award, which honors business professionals under the age of 40 in the Twin Cities. To be selected, a candidate must demonstrate consistent, outstanding professional achievement and show a commitment to community service as well. Arlotta is also a founding member of the Minneapolis/St. Paul Business Journal Insider's Club, which was established in 2013.
In his time with the Swarm, Arlotta has helped create programs to reintroduce the sport of lacrosse to the Native American community in Minnesota. In 2010, he helped establish an after school program on the Prairie Island Indian Community that kept kids involved in lacrosse on a year-round basis. Professional coaches from the Swarm visited the community weekly and provide lacrosse instruction and mentoring. Because of his efforts, a competitive team in Prairie Island participated year-round in multiple lacrosse leagues in the Twin Cities, and became the first Minnesota Native American youth team to compete in over 100 years.
In 2010, Arlotta and the Swarm established Lax-4-Life, an overnight lacrosse camp open to boys and girls from all 11 Minnesota tribal communities. Campers not only learn about the history, tradition and game play of lacrosse, but also life skills, such as the importance of education, healthy living and abstinence from drugs, alcohol and violence.
Arlotta's work in the Native community has earned praise nationally and locally. In the summer of 2011, the Minnesota Swarm was recognized at the White House during First Lady Michelle Obama's Let's Move! In Indian Country initiative. And recently in December, Arlotta was named the recipient of the Spirit of the People Award, which is presented to one individual annually by the Minnesota American Indian Chamber of Commerce (MAICC). Arlotta's Native initiatives have also received press coverage from the Pioneer Press, The Circle, and Indian Country Today Media Network.
In February of 2012, Arlotta was selected to the Board of Directors for the Minnesota American Indian Chamber of Commerce.
Arlotta is a 2010 graduate of the Saint Paul Area Chamber of Commerce Leadership Saint Paul program. From 2010-12, Arlotta served on the Planning Committee for the Saint Paul Area Chamber of Commerce Young Professionals (YPro). Under Andy's leadership, the Swarm was named the winner of the 2011 Deubener Award in the category of Family-Owned Business. The Saint Paul Area Chamber of Commerce presents the award to companies that exemplify growth, excellence, risk, diversity and innovation. The Swarm was also a finalist for the Deubener Award in 2010.
Arlotta participated as one of 50 local leaders, which also included St. Paul Mayor Chris Coleman and Minneapolis Mayor R.T. Rybak, in the Minneapolis-St. Paul InterCity Leadership Visit in Portland, Ore. in 2011. The two-day trip addressed local community economic development, education and urban issues.
He was also involved in the Imagine the Possibilities program at Risen Christ School in Minneapolis, where he serves as a mentor to 8th grade students. In his role as a mentor, Arlotta provided students with an in-depth curriculum on the business aspects of running a professional indoor lacrosse team.
In November of 2011, he served on the volunteer committee for the American Indian Science and Engineering Society (AISES) National Conference in Minneapolis. AISES is an organization that aims to substantially increase the representation of American Indians and Alaskan Natives in engineering, science and other related technology disciplines.
Arlotta, 38 (1/18/77), graduated from Northern Illinois University in 1999 with a degree in corporate communications and was a member of the school's wrestling and Army ROTC programs. While at NIU, Arlotta was a member of the ROTC Dean's List and named GTE Huskie Scholar. In 1995, Arlotta traveled to El Salvador and Guatemala as a member of Athletes in Action (AIA), a Christian ministry group. In 1997, Arlotta was selected to wrestle for the U.S. National team in Poland.
Arlotta was born in Libertyville, Ill. and grew up in Whitefish Bay, Wis. He currently resides in St. Paul with his wife, Brook, and their dog Fen.

As the week started, City Editor Brent Lancaster was not here at the newspaper — gone to another job. Frances Woody was not here — mending from breaking her wrist and hip. Madison Taylor was not here — gone on a much-needed week's vacation to the Left Coast.
The Times-News bench is not as deep as it once was, before the first great depression of the 21st century descended like clouds over the Golden Gate Bridge. Like everyone else, we do more with less. Just as dairymen can't quit milking cows for a day, we can't halt production of a newspaper just because the editorial staff is mostly missing. I kept hearing the words of Westbrook Van Voorhis, a newsreel broadcaster from the 1930s ringing in my ears: "Time...marches on!"
I'm sure the powers-that-be were confident and comfortable this week when they gazed out upon the vast wasteland of the newsroom and saw me among the tumbleweeds. Had it not been for Online Editor Joe "Boomer" Jurney stepping up to perform the city editor duties, it would have been a sorry sight indeed.
First thing Monday, a crew of telephone guys showed up to string new lines throughout the building. It's always a joy to have workmen clogging up a city room, but it's even more pleasurable to work amid phone cabling hanging from the ceiling like a spaghetti supper marathon at a Blue Man concert. Our sports department grunted with joy at the prospect of dragging out 15 years worth of media guides, yellowed newspapers, sports news releases and dead deer pictures from storage locations under their desks to allow these phone guys access to receptacles.
In many ways, it was a typical week in a newspaper. Writers shouted out important questions, like "does Forsyth County have an 'e' at the end?" and someone shouts back, "which end?" Callers ask about getting in fall festival and fundraiser announcements. Readers question editorial judgments of story content or page placement. Obituaries come in past deadline on the night you promised your husband or wife you'd get home early. News stories and photos fall through, columns get lost or diverted and you get comments such as, "How dare you put that story in the paper," or, "How dare you didn't get that story in the paper."
People called to wonder if Frances Woody had retired, since they hadn't seen her column. People called asking if I remembered a story we printed six months ago — or maybe it was six years ago. At that point, I couldn't remember six minutes ago. And one guy called around 11 p.m. to say hundreds of worms were coming up out of the ground like something out of a horror movie. I could have told him the same phenomenon was happening in my own driveway.
Amid all this we had comments from people who are too cheap to subscribe to the newspaper complaining they might no longer read stories for free on our website. Duke Energy alerted us that the power would be cut off here Sunday morning. Losing power at a newspaper is never a good idea. Not as bad as cutting power to a hospital operating room, but still bad.
Then I had to put my home computer into hospice and nurse a nearly-broken toe.
Sometimes, when my grandfather Jerd Ashley had to leave his country store for some errand, he would put my father, a boy of tender age at the time, in charge. One day such an occasion arose and a salesman came by. Salesmen can be no-nonsense guys. They have a living to make and they can't lollygag around waiting for the man in charge of the purse strings to show up for a pitch.
The salesman saw only this young boy behind the counter and asked, "Who's in charge around here, sonny?"
Every man reading this knows there is a certain age when a boy doesn't want to be called "sonny." It's demeaning and insulting, particularly if it's said with a certain superior tone to it.
My father must have detected that tone in the salesman's voice. He gathered himself, stood tall, poked out his chest and informed this man: "My father is gone right now. I'm the big cheese here today."
The salesman leveled his gaze and informed my father: "Well, sonny, when your father gets back, you better tell him he's about run out of cheese."
I once worked for an editor who said he would gladly work for the fee of $1 a decision. I didn't take him seriously at the time. I learned this week, though, that at that rate, I could have made enough to retire next week. In fact, retirement is looking kind of good right now.
As I plopped down for a late supper Thursday night, Miz Nancy asked if I wanted a salad with my meal.
"I've made so many decisions today and answered so many questions, I don't think I can even answer that question with a clear head."
"In that case," she replied with a stern expression, "let me make a statement. I'm glad y'all did a story this week on the hospital emergency room expanding because with that attitude you might find yourself needing the service and sipping your supper through a straw."
I reassessed my situation.
"A salad would be wonderful."

AKRON, Ohio – A five-run second inning helped Akron end the Miami University softball team's five-game Mid-American Conference winning streak as the Zips took an 8-1 victory on Saturday. The RedHawks fall to 8-3 in the MAC and 14-23 overall. Akron improves to 4-7 in the MAC and 17-19 overall.
It started off well for Miami as it scored a run in the top of the first. Taylor Shuey led off with single to left field. Tiyona Marshall moved her up to second on a sacrifice bunt. Hailey Reed followed with a double to right center that brought Shuey home and gave the 'Hawks a 1-0 lead.
The Zips quickly tied the score with a run in the bottom of the first off Miami starter Paige Myers. They broke the game open with five runs in the bottom of the second. The big blow came off the bat of Alissa Birkhimer, a grand slam home run that gave Akron a 6-1 lead. The Zips scored single runs in the third and fourth to secure the 8-1 victory.
Reed finished the game 1-for-3 with one RBI. Shuey, Marshall and Jenna Modic also recorded hits for the RedHawks.
Miami will look to gain a split in the two-game series when it faces Akron on Sunday at 1 p.m.

LECOM medical students have many questions about residency opportunities and how healthcare reform will affect them as future osteopathic physicians. They had a chance to get some of their questions answered by Karen Nichols, D.O., President of the American Osteopathic Association. Dr. Nichols visited the Erie campus May 3, and met with students, faculty members and administrators. She spoke to first and second year medical students about the changing healthcare system, graduate medical education and how the AOA can help them throughout their careers.
|Karen Nichols, D.O., AOA President, talks to LECOM second-year students about a variety of issues that will affect them as physicians.
Dr. Nichols gave her take on healthcare reform. She said she believes the Affordable Care Act will give more people access to health care. However, she said the law included many new regulations that could make it more difficult for physicians to provide quality health care. Dr. Nichols said there are also concerns that physicians will not be properly compensated for providing services to patients. "Things need to be changed in our healthcare delivery," Dr. Nichols said. "In many cases the law just put in more roadblocks created by people who are not physicians and have never seen a patient. They don't realize the unintended consequences of some of their decisions."
|Chris Kaczmarczyk listens intently to Karen Nichols, D.O., during a private luncheon. Kaczmarczyk was one of 15 student government and club leaders to get a private audience with Nichols, the AOA President.
Dr. Nichols said she has challenged every specialty to increase their osteopathic residency positions by fifteen percent every year. She has also changed how the AOA handles graduate medical education issues by elevating the committee of osteopathic graduate medical education to a bureau that reports directly to AOA leaders. Dr. Nichols said the goal of the AOA is to have a sufficient number of osteopathic residency positions available for all graduates by 2017. "We're not meeting our obligation as a profession if we don't have GME opportunities," she said.
Dr. Nichols is visiting every college of osteopathic medicine in the United States during her tenure as AOA President. LECOM Erie was the 27th school on her list of 29 campuses. She said she wants future osteopathic physicians to know about the AOA and think of the organization as their family. Her effort impressed Kaczmarczyk. "I think that it's great that she's taking the time to visit every single college of osteopathic medicine and to meet with students, not just administrators," he said.
The Lake Erie College of Osteopathic Medicine and LECOM School of Pharmacy offer innovative and affordable education in osteopathic medicine and pharmacy. From campuses in Erie, Pennsylvania, Greensburg, Pennsylvania and Bradenton, Florida, LECOM provides student-centered pathways to prepare the next generation of healthcare professionals. Prepare yourself for medicine as your life's profession.

For Navy wives, a well-earned pampering
Samuel Wilson / The Herald
Jennifer Brockman, whose husband serves on the USS Nimitz, is transformed into a strawberry blonde by Jesse Skittrall at the SWANQ Style Studio on Sunday. The studio treated military wives to makeovers in preparation for the USS Nimitz's homecoming.

Samuel Wilson / The Herald
Stylist Brittany Seaton brushes mascara onto Ana Sills' eyelashes has mascara applied by stylist Brittany Seaton at SWANQ Style Studio on Sunday. The studio treated military wives to makeovers in preparation for the USS Nimitz's homecoming.
The intervening eight and half months had kept her busy raising twin boys, who just turned 4, and a daughter, who's nearly 2. Running the household during deployments also has given the 31-year-old Navy wife crash courses in plumbing and auto mechanics.
All of that left no time for trifles like spending a few hours in a hair salon.
That changed Sunday. Daniels was among a dozen military wives whom employees at SWANQ Style Studio treated to a free makeover.
"Good, I like my hair," said Daniels, who had her already short 'do trimmed up and dyed "super-bright red."
"I told them I didn't want anything boring and that I was open to anything."
The Nimitz left March 30 and covered more than 80,000 nautical miles off Asia, the Middle East and Europe. Monday's homecoming for the aircraft carrier crew included Daniels' husband, Petty Officer 1st Class Charles Daniels, and some 3,000 other sailors. Returning Nimitz personnel included about 30 new dads who had never seen babies born during the deployment.
Anyone looking for insights into the source of the U.S. Navy's strength would have done well to venture into SWANQ on Sunday.
"Women, we are always the backbone of the family and we're the backbone of the military," said hairstylist Angela Perry, summing up some wisdom learned during 25 years in the hair business.
Compounding the hardship factor is that Navy families hail from states as far-flung as Texas, New York, North Carolina and Missouri -- leaving them uprooted from extended families.
"They're thrown into this foreign territory and have no support system," said salon owner Jessee Skittrall, who came up with the idea for the beauty makeover.
The salon at 7439 Beverly Blvd. did something similar for Navy families last year. The Navy is never far from Skittrall's mind, with a clientele that includes the likes of Julie Ruth, who is married to the Nimitz's skipper, Capt. Jeffrey Ruth Jr.
When Skittrall made the suggestion, employees from his Everett salon and a sister salon in Lynnwood gladly stepped forward to volunteer their time.
"I did this last year, too, and it's just an amazing thing," said hairstylist Jonni Caldwell, 22, of Woodinville. "It's almost as rewarding for us as it is for them."
The salon's name, SWANQ, is an acronym for Southern Warmth And Northwest Quality. The business changed its name from Absolut Hair earlier this year after attorneys for Swedish vodka giant The Absolut Co. sent threatening letters about trademark infringement.
The salon on Sunday offered far more than a haircut.
Susan Owens, 37, of Marysville got coloring, highlights, makeup and waxing, plus a break from her routine, which includes rearing three children, ages 8, 5 and 2.
"This was fun, a lot of fun," she said, shaking her wavy, caramel-colored locks. "It makes me feel very special."
She was ready to reconnect with her husband, Petty Officer 3rd Class Jim Owens.
Ana Sills, 20, of Everett, took a break from homework and bills enjoy a good pampering. She emerged from the stylist's chair with an angled bob cut, colored chocolate with red accents. It was almost time to see her husband, Petty Officer 3rd Class Jason Sills.
"It makes you feel gorgeous again," she said. "Here's the new me, here's the new beginning."

I work on a team with a dozen men. They're great. I like them and all, but can't help wonder why it's so hard to find other technical women. I know they exist because I've met them at conferences, read their blogs, and see them on campus. My guess is there's something about our team that keeps them away.
How can we recruit talented women without resorting to gimmicks? I'm not looking for complete gender parity, but why is it that some teams have a 50/50 gender split and ours is completely lopsided?

SNOW HILL — Good music, good food and a good time have all been planned to celebrate the Greene County Museum's 10th anniversary.
Tonight's occasion will include a performance by "Generations," a jazz ensemble consisting of some of the most seasoned jazz musicians in the Triangle area. The ensemble's performances are marked by a blend of jazz standards, bebop and straight-ahead jazz.
"Generations" mainstays are Freeman Ledbetter and daughter Adia Ledbetter, whose vocal stylings have been described as soulful, soothing and classy. The music presentation by "Generations" is made possible through the Grassroots Grant of the North Carolina Arts Council.
The evening will begin with refreshments and drinks at 7 p.m. A commemorative plaque will be unveiled listing all the original donors to the establishment of the museum. Those present will be recognized.
Attendees will be able to preview the artwork of artist J. Chris Wilson, whose exhibit "Murphy to Manteo, an artist's scenic journey," will be on display at the museum from Tuesday through Dec. 29.
It is said the state of North Carolina reaches from the most western town of Murphy to the most eastern town of Manteo. Wilson, artist emeritus of Barton College in Wilson, has captured that distance visually through this exhibit. A public reception will be held Tuesday with a chance to meet the artist.
Wilson earned a Master of Fine Arts from the University of Georgia and has been painting the North Carolina landscape for more than 35 years. As "Murphy to Manteo" has become synonymous with meaning "across all of North Carolina," the ultimate objective has been to produce 100 large oil paintings of the North Carolina scenic landscape along the 563 miles of the U.S. 64 corridor from the mountains to the sea.
The Greene County Museum is open from 11a.m. to 4 p.m. Tuesdays through Fridays, and 10 a.m. to 1 p.m. Saturdays. For more information, call 252-747-1999.

Hi Barney/everyone.
Great to see the 808 PureView receiving your Gold Award – thank you. Our team are both delighted and extremely proud of their collective achievement. :D
Wanted to just take some time out to share some insights/background behind some of the decisions/trade-offs we made given some of the points you noted in the review.
Whilst we wanted to provide a rich set of controls which cover key elements such as focus, exposure, brightness/colour and composition especially for those who take a more involved role in the capture phase, we also wanted to keep as clean and as uncluttered viewfinder as possible. As you might imagine however, it's very hard to get this balance just right. Personally speaking I find most of not all digital camera viewfinder/info screens are either all or nothing. We continue to seek the best balance in this regard, but equally, recognise we can never get this right for everyone.

Women's Volleyball Loses to Limestone, 3-0
October 12, 2013
GAFFNEY, S.C. The Pfeiffer womens volleyball team (5-14, 3-6 CC) traveled to Limestone and were swept 3-0 on Saturday afternoon in Conference Carolinas action. Limestone (8-10, 6-3) got a game-high 14 kills from Regan Youngs to come away victorious by scores of 25-21, 25-19 and 25-16.
The Lady Falcons best statistical set was the opener, as they hit .220 as a team and had a 14-13 advantage in kills. The Lady Falcons held a 17-15 lead in the first frame, but Limestone rallied to grab eight of the last 14 points to steal the first game.
Pfeiffer came out strong in the second set, grabbing an early 5-2 advantage on a kill by Shelby Younger. The hosts took control and roared ahead, 15-9. Pfeiffer ran off a string of six out of seven points to close the gap to 16-15 but Limestone would respond with six straight points and take set two.
Set three was back-and-forth as the score was tied on nine different occasions, with the last being at 13 all. Again, Limestone used a big run to take control and win the set. Limestone closed out the frame on a 12-3 run to end the match.
In total, Brianna Jones and Kelly Lancellot paced the Lady Falcon offense with six kills apiece. Emily Wall had 16 assists and three aces, while Shelby Younger had seven digs. Anna Vizvary and Lancellot had three blocks each.
The Lady Falcons return to action on Friday night when they host Winston Salem St. in non-conference action at Merner Gymnasuim. The match is scheduled to begin at 7 p.m.

Nice quality
I was pleasantly surprised to see the amazing quality of the card and how beautifully packaged it arrived.. The size was a little smaller than I expected, but the description clearly stated the dimensions which allows you to imagine the size you will be receiving. Customer service was great! I had to call the day after I placed the order to make a small change, and there was no problem with that. I would definitley recommend magnetstreet.com and will use them again for any upcoming occasions. :)
Beautiful Cards
Although my choice was listed as a "Save the Date," I used them as a bridal shower invitation. It was so easy to set up and change the font and color to my choices. The customer support was incredible. I spoke to them a few times and they not only made the changes I requested, but also gave me helpful suggestions. When you call, you actually get a live person! They sent a proof to look at and approve before the order was printed. The whole process was easy and the finished product was beautiful and delivered quickly. And the lined envelopes were a plus (I expected plain envelopes). I'm already a return customer and will definitely use them again.
Great customer service! The card looks exactly like the design/proof. The only thing is it is printed on a canvas like paper so you see the grains, just so you know because you can't tell in the proof but they still came out great!

Judges occupy a unique and powerful force within the legal profession. They see attorneys in action and can quickly identify an attorney who may be impaired. As such, judges are in a position to act to promote positive change in the lives and careers of lawyers in crisis. Judges are also among the few who are positioned to help other judges who may be challenged by substance use and mental health disorders. As with lawyers, TLAP maintains a list of volunteer judges who are interested providing peer support to other judges in crisis.
TLAP also operates the ABA's National Hotline for Judges Helping Judges (800-219-6474) for jurists who are seeking help for themselves or other judges. All communications are confidential by statute.

Are you ready? Halloween is just a week away. As most pet parents scramble to put the finishing touches on their own costumes, some are scrounging for the cutest or scariest attire they can find for their pets, too. But hold on—are Halloween costumes really okay for our furry friends?
It depends, say experts. Our vets and behaviorists weighed in and said putting your pet in costume is okay as long as you're certain he's comfortable in his holiday gear.
If you decide to have your pet wear a costume, here are three helpful tips to keep in mind:
Your pet's Halloween garb shouldn't constrict his movement or hearing, or impede his ability to breathe, bark or meow. Be sure to try on costumes well in advance—and if your furry friend seems distressed, try switching to his birthday suit.
Examine your pet's costume and make sure it doesn't have any small, dangling or easily chewed-off pieces that he could choke on. Also, ill-fitting outfits can get caught on external objects or your pet, leading to injury.
Make sure your dog or cat has proper identification on underneath that cute costume. If for any reason your pet escapes and becomes lost during Halloween festivities, tags or a microchip can be a lifesaver.
Are you planning to dress up your pet for Halloween? Let us know in the comment—and be sure to tag us @ASPCA if you upload any pics of your festive friend to Twitter or Instagram.
For more holiday advice, check out our expert Halloween Safety Tips.
My dogs are little and our area is cold during Halloween. If I want to take one of the out I'd have to put a sweater on them anyway. Why not (as long as you follow the tips in the article) make it something cute to fit with Halloween that can also keep them warm?
Making pets wear costumes that are dangerous and stupid for our "entertainment" is selfish and mean. I would NEVER do this to an animal!
Agreed. I don't want my furry friends to look stupid. I don't put clothes or costumes on them. They don't even have a say in the matter
I agree with Cathy. No On No to pet wearing costumes. Animals were not meant to wear clothes of any kind. They are predators not furry children! Sorry people.
Does that include my hairless chinese cresteds when they need to be pottied outdoors in the frigid winter temperatures? I think we can all agree as animal lovers and speakers on their behalf it would be cruel to NOT put a sweater on them...If I happen to find a sweater that has some sort of festive message or print what does it matter to you?
I m very deeply sorry about that. Little dogs > like Hairless Chinese Crested need something warm, yet less restricking (? on spelling). I seen big dogs w/ hankerchifes (? spelling) on. I am basically referring to silly dog and cat holiday; Halloween~ Thanksgiving or Christmas costumes. Once again I apologize. =( // =)

Paarl Boys' High 1st XV coach Elmo Wolfaardt attributes his side's success to a unified effort.
This time last year, Boishaai were seventh on the rankings, but good performances in 2011 saw them climb up to second place, before dropping to third (after Affies climbed six positions to No 2).
'Our rugby culture has always been straight forward – we play for the badge,' says Wolfaardt. 'We have always been rated around No 5 in South Africa. It's been a process to get to where we are now, even though we've had a fair amount of excellent teams in the past.
'We've made the current team believe in unity. We don't believe in individual play and "stars". Our great mix of backs and forwards are the reason for our dominance.'
Boishaai have played 17 matches this year, of which they've won 15, lost one and drawn one. Their solitary defeat came at the hands of Affies.
'Both teams played a physical game that day, and one error cost us that clash,' says Wolfaardt. 'Affies are a very good side, but I feel we didn't play to our full potential.'
Boishaai had to produce plucky performances to overcome Paul Roos and Rondebosch this season, but there's one match stood out for Wolfaardt.
'It was the [15-15] draw against Grey College in Bloemfontein. You know when you're over there you're about to test your mettle. They make you understand why they are regarded as the best in the country.'
However, Wolfaardt insists it's possible to topple Grey in the rankings.
'They've got some tough matches coming up. They still have to play Paul Roos and Rondebosch, and given the up-and-down season Paul Roos have had, Grey won't have it easy as Paul Roos will look to prove a point.'
Boishaai had six players in the WP Craven Week side that lost two of their three matches, but Wolfaardt was still not happy with the team selection.
'The boys didn't play as a unit, but I was impressed by flanker Sikumbuzo Notshe. There are players in the WP Academy team like the centre-pairing of Johnnie Kotze [Bishops] and Edwin Sass [Tygerberg] who could've made a difference in the Craven Week team.
'I believe players should be selected on form, and there were two Paul Roos players who weren't enjoying their game.'

Scotland flyhalf Dan Parks has retired from international rugby with immediate effect.
Following last week's loss to England, the 33-year-old Parks has decided that he can put off his retirement no longer. He had originally intended to retire after the 2011 World Cup, but the prospect of facing England in one final Six Nations clash proved too tempting. In the end, it turned out to be a bad decision as England scored an important try after Charlie Hodgson charged down a Parks kick.
'I was thinking about it [retirement] but the first game of the Six Nations was against England, the auld enemy, Jacko [Ruardirh Jackson] was injured and being able to play against England was huge for me as there was a sense of unfinished business,' said Parks.
'On reflection after the game, after talking it over with my family, girlfriend and close friends, I've come to the decision that now is the right time to retire from the international game.'
With Parks unavailable for selection, Greig Laidlaw is likely to start at flyhalf in this week's clash with Wales. Coach Andy Robinson is also likely to use flyhalf Duncan Weir in the 22.
'There are some really talented guys coming through – Jacko, Greig and Duncan – and although I'm sad to be finishing my international career I have some fantastic memories of playing for Scotland and what that has meant to me,' said Parks.
'I've no regrets at what has been an amazing career for me. I've got my favourite moments for Scotland – uppermost being the 2007 World Cup.
'Other memorable moments have been the two wins against England at home [in 2006 and 2008], the win against South Africa here at Murrayfield [in November 2010], the two wins in Argentina in 2010 and one in 2008 and the Ireland game in 2010 which was a great occasion.'
Parks played 67 Tests for Scotland and amassed 266 points.

Office: New Delhi, India
IFPRI has long worked in South Asia, undertaking major projects on trade, markets, employment, nutrition, water, the adoption of agricultural technology, and other vital issues. Although the region has reduced the percentage of its population that is food and nutrition insecure, it remains home to the majority of the world's hungry and malnourished people.
More information
South Asia Initiative
To address this challenge and take advantage of new opportunities, IFPRI launched the South Asia Initiative (SAI) in 2002, opened an office in New Delhi in 2005, and appointed a director in Asia in 2006. The SAI pursues a three-pronged approach: it works with the Policy Analysis and Advisory Network for South Asia, a network of agricultural policymakers, advisors, and analysts, to promote effective policy dialogue; it facilitates collaborative research on key policy issues; and it works to strengthen local capacity.
Trade Liberalization and Food Security
Though until recently South Asian countries had policies that were protectionist at the border and interventionist within, many have implemented economic reforms to varying degrees. IFPRI's Markets, Trade, and Institutions Division (MTID) is analyzing the impact of the reforms on net food-importing versus net food-exporting countries, foodgrain marketing, and the integration of markets, as well as the role of safety nets in protecting the poorest peoples as reform unfolds.
Food Security, Nutrition, and Health
Changes in the global environment, including food and fuel price crises, the global financial crisis, and climate-related changes, have altered consumption patterns over the past few decades in both urban and rural areas. But while the poor are now more likely to meet their calorie needs than before, the overall quality of their diet has not improved. Poor diet quality, related illnesses, and nutrition deficits have become the most pressing nutritional concerns among the poor today.
In south Asia IFPRI is working to address these challenges through a number of projects, including:
- Alive and Thrive (A&T)
- Partnerships and Opportunities to Strengthen and Harmonize Actions for Nutrition in India (POSHAN)
- Suaahara: Evaluation of the Impact of a Multisectoral Nutrition Program in Nepal
- Tackling the Agriculture-Nutrition Disconnect in India (TANDI)
- Bangladesh Policy Research and Strategy Support Program (BPRSSP)
- Leveraging Agriculture for Nutrition in South Asia
Smallholder Farmers and Markets
Through the study of Rural Business Hubs (RBHs), IFPRI is learning how the private sector can help increase incomes, linkages to markets, and productivity of small, poor farmers by eliminating the rural services vacuum. Promotion of RBHs will be made possible by IFPRI's work to build capacity within the private sector and partnerships with university research organizations. IFPRI's Markets, Trade and Institutions Division (MTID) works to understand the effects that processing modernization has had on the retail competitiveness of small farmers while also identifying policies that can expand their participation in supply chains for high-value commodities.
Growth, Poverty, and Climate Change
Climate change will affect South Asian economies in various ways and is likely to have strong adverse effects on food production and the poor. At the same time, rapid economic expansion has put pressure on the region's natural resources, especially water and land. In India, IFPRI researchers are examining climate-smart interventions and the economic feasibility of using them for major crops like rice, wheat, and maize. In the eastern Indo-Gangetic Plain IFPRI is studying local institutional and policy factors that foster or impede climate resilient farming systems with emphasis in Nepal, Bihar, and West Bengal in India, and north western Bangladesh.
The Dragon and the Elephant
China and India together account for 40 percent of the world's population. Both have implemented a series of economic reforms in the past two and a half decades: China initiated this process at the end of the 1970s with reforms in the agriculture sector and in rural areas, while India began in the early 1990s by liberalizing and reforming the manufacturing sector. The different reform paths have led to different growth rates and, more importantly, to different rates of poverty reduction. They also have fundamentally different implications for growth and poverty reduction in the future. IFPRI researchers have been examining key aspects of these reforms and their relationship to outcomes, and have hosted three international "Dragon and Elephant" conferences on China and India, most recently in July 2006.

March 14, 86
Vol. 01 , No. 08
"Presidential Politics & Party Realignment in the '80s," a symposium February 25-27, brings outstanding Democrats and Republicans to Claremont McKenna College to discuss prospects for the 1988 presidential campaign. It also presents an ideal opportunity to appreciate two of CMC's most generous benefactors, Mrs. Marian Miner Cook and her husband, the late John Brown Cook. The symposium is co-sponosored by the John Brown Cook Association for Freedom and the Marian Miner Cook Athenaeum, demonstrating only one of the many ways in which the Cook family has benefited our college.
Mr. Cook, the former president and chairman of the Reliable Electric Company, graduated from Dartmouth College in 1929 with distinction in physics. He later served as a Scripps College trustee. He cared profoundly for the American republic, its Constitution, the free enterprise system, and sound education. The John Brown Cook Association advances Mr. Cook's ideals by sponsoring a wide variety of speakers at Dartmouth and The Claremont Colleges. For example, under the leadership of Professor Alfred Balitzer, the association recently brought to Claremont Edward Rollins, director of the Reagan/Bush campaign in 1984; Mickey Kantor, distinguished lawyer and chairman of the Mondale/Ferraro campaign in California; former Secretary of the Interior James G. Watt; Joe Cerrell, nationally recognized Democratic party campaign manager and consultant; and three leading members of the Afghan freedom fighters movement, including Pier Gailani, the leader of 13 million Sunni Muslims in Afghanistan.
Fittingly, events sponsored by the John Brown Cook Association often occur in the Marian Miner Cook Athenaeum. Mrs. Cook has said that the association, founded by her husband, was the source of her interest in CMC. To our delight, that interest grew. She became a valued trustee in 1979, and then provided the leadership that made the Athenaeum a reality.
Her work reaches beyond Claremont, however. A founder of the Los Angeles County Museum of Art and vice chairman of the board of governors of the Performing Arts Council for the Los Angeles Music Center, she has also served as a director of the Institute of Nautical Archeology and the California State University and Colleges Foundation. But those of us who are associated with CMC believe that her finest contribution will always be the Marian Miner Cook Athenaeum.
Shortly before the Athenaeum opened in September 1983, Mrs. Cook remarked that she and Mr. Cook "had a challenging and exciting life." She added her wish that the Athenaeum would provide Claremont students with "similar intellectual challenges and excitement." Like so many other Athenaeum events that Mrs. Cook's generosity makes possible, the symposium that awaits us should make her wish come true.
Long before the votes were counted on November 6, 1984, Democratic leaders were trying to understand and explain the enormity of their impending presidential defeat. Throughout the country, political analysts, elected officials, pollsters, and journalists began diagnosing the ailment that rendered the party helpless to hold onto its constituent base. Though this process of self-examination occurs every four years, as the defeated party tries to mend its organization, Democratic inquiry has extended beyond traditional analyses of campaign strategies and the presidential nominating process.
Concurrently, Republican leaders have busied themselves with the forecasting, planning, and legwork necessary to maintain the conservative shift in the electorate's voting behavior. The midterm elections in 1986 will serve as a litmus test to determine if the "Reagan revolution" is, in fact, the beginning of national political realignment, or is simply a temporary shift attributable to a charismatic candidate.
Although it is farther down the road, the forthcoming presidential contest is stimulating an impressive amount of attention and speculation. Not since the election of 1968 has there been a presidential contest without an incumbent in the race, and perhaps not even then was the field of candidates so wide open in both parties. Because name recognition, education, and media strategies will play crucial roles in campaign '88, potential candidates and national politicos are already scrambling.
The three-day conference beginning February 25 at Claremont McKenna College brings together six of the leading players in the national political arena, while they examine the causes and significance of the 1984 landslide, discuss the midterm elections, and speculate regarding the upcoming presidential race.
Republicans scheduled to attend are Lyn Nofziger, political consultant to President Reagan; Edward Rollins, manager of the Reagan/Bush campaign in 1984; and Richard Wirthlin, pollster for the Republican party. The scheduled Democratic participants are Robert Beckel, manager of the Mondale campaign in 1984 and political consultant; Patrick Caddell, Democratic pollster and political adviser to President Carter; and Charles Manatt, former chairman of the Democratic National Committee.
It is noteworthy that Robert Beckel recently joined forces with James Lake and Roger Stone, the chief spokesman and the Northeastern coordinator, respectively, for Reagan's '84 campaign. Their newly established political consulting firm, National Strategies, utilizes their combined prowess and political connections to arrange grass-roots networks to lobby for their clients' issues. The conference provides us with an opportunity to discuss their venture and other political strategies.

Reservations for dinner at the Athenaeum will not be made more than one month in advance of the event, unless specific arrangements for a speaker necessitate a longer lead time. Also, we ask that faculty not use the Athenaeum as a substitute location for holding class. For supplementary activities, faculty may reserve the Athenaeum up to four times a semester.
Student organizations may use the Athenaeum for functions no more than twice a month or eight times a semester. To assist the Athenaeum office, individual sign-ups are to be returned to the event sponsor, so that a completed reservation sheet can be forwarded to the Athenaeum.
