We are now settled into the 4th home we have owned in Sag Harbor. We had not planned on listing our 3rd with an agent after an experience with another agency to sell our 2nd beloved home left us feeling very betrayed and extremely cautious. We figured that by now we had been through the ropes enough times and that the people who could represent and look out for us best would be...ourselves. Until we met Simon. Simon's entire approach to showing a listing he had to us was one that we found most refreshing and inspiring. He gave us all the time in the world to view the home while never once hovering as he was considerate in allowing us some privacy to discuss possibilites. Only after speaking with us and getting to know us, our needs, concerns and desires, did he contribute insight of what aspects of the home were a fit and how we could make adjustments within our budget in areas that needed modification to suit us best. We truly felt that we came first. Within a couple of days we partnered with Simon to sell our home. I say "partnered" in the fact that in dealing with Simon, no salesman ego exists. He does not take possession of a property to sell it. It becomes a joint effort with him always by your side with tuned in ears and an open mind for any ideas you might have while being ever reliable with sound professional advice and feedback. We also realized that there is a reason his logo is his name...he makes himself fully accountable and assessible. Simon found a buyer for our home by being a matchmaker. He was able to fit together the needs and wants of both seller and buyer creating a win win for both sides. We were able to secure the sale we needed to move on to our next project and our buyer was left well satisfied that he made a wonderful investment. Would I recommend Simon the Broker to a friend? I did friends that favor. Simon sold their house and guided them to the home they are now happily settled into.

Ratings & Reviews
We had a wonderful experience with Simon. His staff was excellent and he truly is a fantastic broker who is seasoned and knowledgable!
We would highly recommend Simon.
At my closing, I was promised verbally and in writing that a hot tub would be repaired and would be in working order when I took possession of the house, Unfortunately, it was not, and I was then lied to by both Simon and his pool repair company. who claimed that the hot tub was indeed in working order, but mysteriously broke while it is off during the time it took me to move in.
Thanks for reviewing me and my firm, and thank you for buying my listing in June of last year. In reviewing this situation just through archived emails, I saw several emails that your broker wrote me where he said that Sparkling Pools went in and made repairs more than once until it was working, and at closing it was working. We know it was over 20 years old and my client, the seller, would have fared better by just buying a new one, but you got copies of those paid repair bills and the warranties associated with that work, yes? There were also several emails that your agent wrote about you not moving in but renting the house. Since you are just posting this concern now, and the Prudential no longer does business in town, maybe one of your tenants can help you with the mystery prior to your possession?
Simon Harrison Real Estate Brokers listed and sold my waterfront house in half the time we thought it might take in 2009, when selling real estate was kind of scary. We got what we needed in spite of the challenges in the marketplace. There were structural issues as a ceiling in one of the bedrooms had a water problem, and the pool permit was out of date, but every one of the people in the crew were knowledgeable and knew how to troubleshoot all of the issues, get them solved, and get a deal that worked well for us. John, Ginny and Simon all played a big part to navigate different offers that they generated, but dozens of brokers came and showed the house. They obviously have experience, as they inspired and motivated all the brokers from the area with open houses, and I saw my house advertised on more websites than I could have counted. They are helping another family member the next town over, and he is very happy about the activity that SimonTheBroker has been bringing. Call them, you'll see.

Manteca's municipal coffers are about to come into some much needed cash - $940,000 to be exact - from the sale of two city-owned properties.
The lazy days of summer aren't something that 12-year-old Ricky Artery is going to miss.
The Manteca High Class of 1945 was a close-knit group of 70 kids that frequented the Scoop News stand on West Yosemite Avenue with their eyes on the ice cream bar. The El Rey Theatre that had opened eight years earlier in 1937 was their other focus for fun and entertainment.
A 7-year-old has turned the heads of many adults after he launched his own campaign to send snack packs to American G.I.s overseas in battle torn countries during the last seven months.
Second Harvest Food Bank's second annual Chili Pot Cook Off takes place today to help feed struggling families.

Manteca biggest growth spurt wasn't in 1985 when 1,400 new homes bought by a tidal wave of Bay Area Transplants prompted the establishment of the 3.9 percent annual growth cap tied to sewer allocations.

Seven finalists to land West Virginia transfer Terry Henderson
May 25, 2014, 12:30 PM EDT
West Virginia missed the NCAA tournament for the second straight year. The program's offseason didn't get much better when sophomore guards Eron Harris and Terry Henderson, the team's second and third leading scorers, respectively, decided to transfer out of Morgantown.
Henderson was the second of the two to leave the Mountaineers. Two weeks after making that announcement, Henderson has released the names of the seven finalists, and has set up multiple visits.
Cincinnati, Maryland, N.C. State, Richmond, Rutgers, UCLA and Wake Forest are all still in the hunt for Henderson's services, he told Jeff Ermann of 247Sports.com on Friday afternoon.
According to Jeff Goodman of ESPN.com, Henderson plans to visit Maryland, N.C. State, Wake Forest and UCLA.
"I felt like those are the schools that will complement the way I play," Henderson told 247Sports. "I'll be able to get on the floor and do what I do best.
"Most of them are near, and even though UCLA is on the other side of the the country, it's a city, which is what I like."
Even though he will have to sit out the 2014-2015 season due to NCAA transfer rules, Henderson will be a boost to each team's back court. Teams like Rutgers and Richmond will graduate their top scorers after next season while programs like Maryland and UCLA have each lost underclassmen to either transfers or the NBA Draft.
Henderson averaged 11.7 points, 2.9 rebounds and 1.1 assists per game this past season as a sophomore for West Virginia.

Storm Purvis tipped as star on the rise
Relevant offers
Southern Steel rookie Storm Purvis has certainly made dramatic progress for someone who only picked up a netball five years ago.
The 18-year-old was a talented 400m and 800m track runner growing up but, after struggling to regain her form after knee surgery, she opted to make the switch to netball and has never looked back.
Purvis was fast-tracked into her Diocesan School for Girls' senior A team in Auckland during Year 10 because of her towering 1.86m height and has gone from strength to strength.
In her final year at high school, she was selected in the New Zealand secondary schools team, which won the international netball challenge in Australia.
Her promise was further illustrated in 2009 when she was one of four players to be named in Netball New Zealand's national emerging talent accelerant group.
For the past two years, Purvis has been a member of the New Zealand under-21 squad, but her biggest accolade came last year when she received a surprise phone call from Steel co-coach Janine Southby.
Southby, who is also the New Zealand under-21 coach, rang to inform the young defender she had gained her first trans-Tasman netball league contract with Steel for the 2012 season – something which left Purvis speechless.
"I was very surprised. It was something I was aiming for in the next couple of years," Purvis said.
"To get it this year, I was shocked, but really excited."
Purvis, who is in the second year of a physical education degree at Otago University, said stepping up to the professional ranks from age-group and representative netball had already been a massive learning curve.
She is likely to gain only small amounts of court-time in her debut ANZ Championship season behind experienced Steel defenders Sheryl Scanlan and Demelza McCloud, but hopes to take advantage of any opportunities.
At last weekend's ANZ Championship pre-season tournament in Tauranga, Purvis faced a baptism of fire, marking up against some of the premier shooters in the game, including Irene van Dyk, Romelda Aiken and Caitlin Bassett.
Against the West Coast Fever's Australian Diamond shooting combination of Bassett and Cath Cox, Purvis and McCloud limited their opponents to just one goal in the opening six minutes of play, which she was thrilled about.
Marking up against some of the world's finest netball players still felt surreal, she said.
"My first game [last weekend] was against Irene. I thought: `Is this happening?' It was a crazy experience. It's cool the coaches give everyone game time."
Purvis idolises Silver Ferns' captain and fellow defender Casey Williams and her playing style features strong similarities. She loves nothing better than going roaming for an intercept and is known for her rebounding and strength in the air with her height.
"They called me `Casey' up in Auckland," Purvis laughed.
"She's been my idol the last five years. I love her aggression and the way she goes hunting for the ball."
Southby said she has been pleased by Purvis' development during pre-season, especially with her strength and conditioning, and believed she was a player, who could become an important member of the Steel set-up in coming years.
"[The ANZ Championship] is a couple of levels up for her and is a huge step up. It's the start of a long journey for her.
"I like the way she hunts the ball and she reads the game really well ... There's a lot of work for her to do, but I see huge potential for her in the future."
Purvis has already attracted plenty of interest with her unusual first name. She said the story behind its origins was not as exciting as it sounded and was only too happy to set the record straight for The Southland Times.
"My family knew someone from Zimbabwe named Storm, and always liked the name.
"Everyone in my family has a normal name – apart from me," she smiled.

Recent Capitola reviews
"Two of us stayed here for the month of May and found it to be exactly what we were hoping for. Amenities include: --Fantastic location in Capitola village. Walk to the beach, restaurants, coffee, ice cream, etc., and short drive (or longer walk) to grocery store, Gayle's bakery, etc. --Incredible ocean views through many windows --Very nice kitchen--made it easy to cook --Beautiful garden area for sitting outside --Very accommodating and knowledgeable owners who went out of their way to help us when we had some issues come up unrelated to the rental. They were incredibly helpful. Also they are experienced in renting their house so they have all the basic needs covered (wifi, parking permits, booster for cell phones b/c some cell coverage isn't very good in the village, local information, etc.). Other reviewers mentioned the hill coming down to the house and that might be an issue for a few people who have trouble walking, but my 83 year old mother didn't have any problems with it. We have rented houses quite a few times and this has been among our best experiences."Guest: John W Date of Stay: May 2015 Review Submitted: June 4, 2015View listing
"I stayed here for a couple nights with friends to celebrate finishing graduate school. I could not have asked for a more perfect getaway. The location is so ideal, with the beach right outside the door. Downtown Capitola is just a couple minute walk away. We brought most of our own food to cook, and the house had everything we needed. When we did eat out, Pizza My Heart did not disappoint with a giant slice of pizza and tee shirt for $6, and pastries in the morning from Gayle's were divine. The owner was very helpful, and the price cannot be beat. I will definitely be back!"Guest: Catie Date of Stay: September 2014 Review Submitted: October 4, 2014View listing
"I stayed at Little Casa for 4 nights and absolutely loved it! It is the perfect size for 2 people, and there are amazing views from every window in the studio! The back patio overlooks the beach and we enjoyed lazy afternoons playing cards and people watching. The location is great, right in the middle of the village, you can walk everywhere while knowing your car is safely parked.

New LIU Brooklyn women's basketball head coach Stephanie Oliver today revealed two members of her coaching staff for her first season at the helm of the Blackbirds.
Oliver announced she has brought in Heather Zurich and Tim Gardner to join her on the bench next season. They will join the only returnee from former head coach Gail Streigler's coaching staff last season in Director of Basketball Operations Hillary Spears. [Read more…]
A dawn of a new era has began at LIU Brooklyn. On Thursday, LIU Brooklyn Athletics officially introduced former Seton Hall assistant coach Stephanie Oliver as the school's eleventh women's basketball head coach at LIU's Steinberg Wellness Center. It was on Monday in which the school announced her appointment.
Newly removed of his interim tag, LIU Brooklyn Director of Athletics Brad Cohen did the honors of introducing Oliver to the university and immediately showed great confidence in his new hire. [Read more…]
After a lengthy nationwide search (60 days to be exact from when the search began on March 20th), LIU Brooklyn officially announced their eleventh women's head basketball coach in Seton Hall assistant coach Stephanie Oliver. Oliver will succeed former women's head coach Gail Striegler who was let go by the school back on March 20th.
Oliver recently completed her second season as an assistant at Seton Hall under Pirates' women's basketball head coach Tony Bozzella who coached LIU Brooklyn from 2000-2002 and guided the Blackbirds to their only NCAA tournament appearance back in 2001. Seton Hall last season finished 28-6 and went to the NCAA tournament for the first time since 1995. The season before Seton Hall finished 20-14 and made it all the way to the third round of the WNIT.

LIU Brooklyn Athletics this afternoon announced that seven-year women's basketball head coach Gail Striegler has been relieved of her duties.
Striegler just completed a 9-21 season (6-12 in the NEC) at LIU Brooklyn and finished in the eight-seed in the 2015 NEC women's basketball tournament. LIU Brooklyn lost to top-seeded Central Connecticut State 72-51.
Striegler had just completed her seventh season in Downtown Brooklyn as women's basketball head coach. She guided her teams to a 96-115 record (.455 win percentage) in her seven seasons.
She came to LIU before the 2008-09 season in replacing current Fordham women's basketball head coach Stephanie Gaitley who had left LIU to become women's head basketball coach at Monmouth. Striegler inherited a team that went 24-8 and 13-5 in the NEC the season before. In Striegler's first season at LIU, her team went 9-20 and 4-14 in the NEC.
The next three seasons was Striegler's best at LIU. Her teams went a combined 62-31 overall and 33-19 in the NEC. Her best season at LIU was in her second season in which LIU finished 22-10 and 12-4 in the NEC before losing to Saint Francis U. in the NEC championship game. She got her only two NEC tournament wins that season.
In the last three seasons, things went sour for Striegler and her program. She went a combined 25-64 overall and 17-37 in the NEC in that span. She guided her teams to an eight-seed in the NEC tournament in the last two seasons.
Striegler guided her teams to five NEC tournaments in her seven seasons. She went 2-5 in LIU's five NEC tournament trips.
Striegler got her 200th career win back on February 7th in a home win against Saint Francis U.
In the last couple of seasons, LIU has struggled on the offensive end. This season, they finished sixth in the NEC in scoring offense at 64 points per game but were dead last in the NEC last season at 60 points per game.
Her entire coaching staff is also being let go along with her. LIU Brooklyn has announced they will begin a national search for their next head women's basketball coach.
**UPDATE** (8/2/15): Gail Striegler has been hired by Minnesota as their new assistant coach on the women's basketball team.
Last week at the NEC Basketball Social Media Day inside Brooklyn's Barclays Center, all ten NEC women's basketball coaches came out to meet with the media to discuss their team's upcoming season. That included seventh-year LIU Brooklyn women's basketball head coach Gail Striegler, who is coming off a 9-21 season and an appearance in the NEC tournament as an eight-seed after a disappointing 2012-13 season where they went 7-22 and missed the NEC tournament all together.
Joining her this year at NEC Media Day was fourth-year senior guard/forward Letava Whippy. Whippy is the only four-year player on this season's LIU roster and is one of two seniors on the team. Last season, she was third on LIU in both scoring (8.0 ppg) and rebounding (6.0 rpg), second in assists (2.3 apg) and lead the team in steals (2.0 spg) as well as recorded two double-doubles.
Last season showed a slight improvement over the previous season for the Blackbirds but this season will once again bring in more change as for the second season in a row, seven newcomers enter the program. The Blackbirds were once again challenged offensively with an NEC-worse scoring offense of just under 60 points per game and a shooting percentage under 39 percent. Their defense played well, holding teams to 64 points per game. Now, they need to bring the offense up to par with the defense. That, along with other challenges, face this LIU women's basketball squad.
I spoke with both Coach Striegler and Letava Whippy about last season and what should we look forward to from LIU Brooklyn women's basketball in 2014-15.
Blackbirds Hoops Journal: This is the second year in a row where there is a lot of newcomers on the squad, what necessitated the turnover again this year?
Gail Striegler: Well, we had a lot of junior college kids that were only here for two years, so basically when you recruit those you have to replace them. I think we had three kids that were junior college kids that came in. So when you don't sign freshmens, you have turnover pretty quickly off of that. We had one transfer and we had kids graduate. Our graduation class was a good graduating class. We graduated five kids so it wasn't like we didn't graduate people. Cleandra (Roberts) was basically the only one who was here for four years, so the other ones were only there for one or two years.
BHJ: You have a pretty young squad again this year, what are your concerns going into this year with this group?
GS: I think it is the same as it's always is. You have to work on your chemistry. You have a lot of stuff you have to teach them. We've made some changes in a few of the things we're running to. Even the upperclassmen are having to learn a few new things, which makes it exciting for us, it's not the same thing over and over again. Whenever you have new kids, the chemistry is got to get consistent and then players have to buy in to what you're doing. You got to make sure that they're really getting the fundamentals. A lot of times you get the high school kids or the juco kids to come in, they don't have the same fundamentals that you want to teach in your program.
BHJ: Your team loses a lot of scoring in Cleandra Roberts graduating, how do you go about replacing that kind of production?
GS: I think it will be the same of last year. Nobody expected Cleandra to average (close to) 20 ppg. We'll have somebody step up and fill it. I think it is going to be more by committee though then it was last year. I'm not sure we have anybody that is coming in that is going to average 20 a game. I think we have more kids that is going to average 10 to 12 a game. We are going to be a different style of play. I think we are going to be a lot higher scoring team this year because we are going to press pretty much non-stop. We're excited for the way we're going to be playing. The kids are really buying into it and enjoying it.
BHJ: Are you happy with the progress the team made last season over the year before?
GS: I'm happy with the progress we made after Christmas. I think it took us a while to find ourselves. I think we starting playing well after Christmas and it continued to get better throughout the whole season. Every game was a fairly close game. We won almost half our games after Christmas. I was proud of our kids. I don't think I ever had a team that really fought through like they did. We started off 0-9 and to end up with the record that we had, I think that is pretty good. It's saying that your kids had some mental toughness and really bought in.
BHJ: Letava, what is your opinion of the team this season? What are you looking forward to coming into this year?
Letava Whippy: We're very young which means that there is a whole new dynamic of play that has the potential to come up but I'm so excited because I never had to blend in with the new players as much being the only senior and playing in a system that I guess isn't the same anymore, it is kind of different. I'm just excited I guess. All the girls who have come in are very talented and extremely excited about the season I guess so its makes my job as a senior easier when they are willing to do the work that needs to be done and makes coach's job a lot more fun, not having to make people do stuff. We all love playing and we all love the work we have to do to get there.
BHJ: As a four-year senior, do you feel like a lot of the younger players come up to you asking you for advice?
LW: Definitely. All of the time. It's funny, they ask how I dealt with things that they are going through now. I kind of had to laugh because it is the exact same things that I went to my seniors when I was a freshman to ask. I think they kind of just told me that you just have to take it in stride and keep going. As much as I would love to say that to them sometimes, the younger girls I've learned to take them under my wing and to be with them more instead of saying suck it up, this is what you have to do. Not many people respond to that well. You find a way to communicate with everyone and everyone is different. It's been a learning experience for me too. I'm just grateful to be able to lead these group of girls.
BHJ: Is it fair to say last year, the defense once again was ahead of the offense?
GS: Yeah, it was without a doubt and it is going to be that way again this year. We are putting in a new offense so we are even further behind offensively than we were. We're working putting stuff in pressing-wise (on defense) that going to be different too so I feel like we are further behind on everything this year than last year. Hopefully, we are taking a little bit more time. I felt like last year, it had been a while since I had that many new kids and I think last year instead of taking time and putting stuff in and making sure it was right, I wouldn't always get it all the way right and I would more on to the next thing. Before Christmas we had to go back and fix a bunch of things that the kids had not mastered. We moved on before they had really fix the problem so this year we are trying to move a little bit slower. That makes me feel like we are further behind but hopefully the stuff we are putting in, the kids will understand better.
BHJ: Letava is the only returning starter from last season, I'm guessing there will a lot of competition for minutes this season?
GS: This may be the most competitive group of girls that I have ever coached. They want to win if it's Monopoly, they don't really care what it is. They want to compete in everything that they do. They are competitive about who gets to the gym first, who leaves the gym last. They are competitive in everything that I can think of. I think that's a good thing. A little bit of will die out when we start having to shift teams and kind of end up with our top eight, nine, ten. That is what you hope is going to happen, that the role players really buy in, if they don't buy in then your team is not really all that successful.
BHJ: Who will be running the point guard position for your team this season?
GS: That's a good question. It is still up in the air. We got Ashley (Brown) back, she had a concussion all of last year. We have a freshman, Paris Jones, who is from California and we have Shanice Vaughn, she is our only New York kid, she is from Brooklyn. She transferred in, she went to junior college in Texas and then came back. We have some kids that can do it. I think the only one you can say is a true point guard is Paris. The style of play we are going to be playing we are going to have a true point guard playing all of the time. To be honest with you, Letava was great helping. Kelly (Robinson) was the point guard (last season) but Letava helped bring the ball up a lot and she will be asked to do that again this year.
BHJ: Letava, is being a point-forward of sort, something you are comfortable doing? You like having the ball in your hands?
LW: Yup. I do what I need to basically. Whatever I'm asked to do, I'll do it.
BHJ: Moving on to the front court, Fanny Cavallo and Cleandra Roberts are gone, what are the changes you need to make up front?
GS: Well, we have Jolanna Ford, she is junior college kid that has been doing a good job. Angel (DeAngelique Waithe), a freshman kid from Florida is extremely athletic. She is got a lot of stuff to learn. We have two returners in Jahmia Phillips and Mercedes Harris. It will be interesting because we are doing a four out/one in. Letava is actually going to be our four player. We moved a lot of three players to fours because we had an abundance of twos and threes. We don't have a lot of point guards, we don't have a lot of five players but we have a bunch of twos and threes so Letava and another young lady is going to play the four. It will be interesting to see how that works. I think it is going to be an advantage for us offensively, it could be a disadvantage defensively. If we take advantage of it, it could be really good for us.
BHJ: Is it fair to say the depth of this team is improved?
GS: There is a lot more depth. I think our five position is not real deep. I think our point guards, we have people who can play it but aren't a lot of true point guards. But the two and threes and fours, I mean that is why they are competing so hard because there are a lot of people that can play those positions and play them well.
BHJ: How has Sophie Bhasin progressed from his freshman year up to now?
GS: Sophie has matured a lot. She has become a better basketball player, a better well-rounded player. She has always been a scorer, kind of hot and cold but she has put herself in a situation this year where she is going to be consistent. Her defense is still lacking but it is much, much better than it used to be. She can guard somebody, she can guard the ball a little better. She is rotating, when she gets beat, she rotates off. She knocked two balls down the other day in practice. She is playing a lot harder, a lot faster. Offensively, she has always been skilled. Hopefully she'll be more consistent. She has been in practices so far.
BHJ: What do you think about the NEC this year?
GS: I think it is going to be extremely competitive. I would say the top three in the conference are Robert Morris, Sacred Heart and St. Francis Brooklyn. They got experienced players. They should be in their own little group. I think the rest of the league, throw the names in a hat and pick. Wagner also has some real good upper classmen. I would put them in the top four. All the other six of us, almost everybody lost seniors that were really, really good. It is going to be who gets the best chemistry, who shows up every night to play, who progresses from now until conference play start because I think everybody has got talented kids but none of us are very good right now because there are so many new kids. Where we're at when conference play start will be most important. We are going to have some bumps in the road. We are going to have some close games. We are going to lose some games. This group is so competitive and we have more depth that I think it will be a little bit more different. I don't foresee us going through the struggles we went through last year. We still are going to have ups and downs. I think this team will progress a little bit faster.
The LIU Brooklyn women's basketball team enter the 2014-15 season in almost the same fashion they entered the 2013-14 season, a team that looks to be better than the previous season but still with a bunch of question marks.
No doubt last season ended better than the 2012-13 season did. LIU Brooklyn was able to improve their total win total from 7 to 9 and went from having 4 NEC wins to 7 NEC wins last season. They also qualified for the NEC tournament last season as an eight-seed which is something they failed to do two seasons ago.
Yet, plenty of question marks still surround this team. In fact, it is probably fair to say that there are even more question marks going into this season than they had going into last season. LIU loses NEC first-teamer Cleandra Roberts and her 18.2 ppg and 7.7 rpg averages and bring back just one starter from last season.
For the second season in a row, the women's basketball team is going through significant roster turnover as similar to last season, LIU Brooklyn's head coach Gail Striegler has eight returnees and seven newcomers on this season's roster. LIU lost four seniors who graduated after the end of last season and lost another pair of players who transferred.
Let's check what the 2014-15 LIU Brooklyn women's basketball team has in store for this season.
The Returnees
As I mentioned, LIU Brooklyn has just one starter returning back this season in senior guard Letava Whippy (8.0 ppg/6.0 rpg). She started in all but one game for the Blackbirds last season and logged the most minutes of any returning LIU player from a year ago. She collected a pair of double-doubles and scored a season-high 18 points against Monmouth. Another key returnee, although she didn't start in a single game last season, is junior guard Sophie Bhasin (10.6 ppg). She finished second on the team in scoring and scored a season-high 26 points against Northern Arizona. It would be hard to imagine Bhasin not cracking the starting lineup this season. After these two though, the amount of returning production tales off dramatically. Sophomore guard Shanovia Dove (1.5 ppg) played in 28 games but only averaged 6.8 minutes per game. She did score 11 points in 20 minutes in a win versus Wagner. Backup point guard Demi Tomlinson (1.4 ppg) played in only 19 games her freshman season although she might get a chance to be the starter this season with the departure of Kelly Robinson. Sophomore guard Brianna Farris (1.2 ppg) played in only 17 games and averaged just 3.7 mpg last season. Sophomore forward Mercedes Harris (0.6 ppg) played in 27 games but averaged just 7.4 minutes per game. She only took 18 shots all season long, making just four although she did have a ten-rebound game against Maine. Redshirt senior Ashley Brown returns after playing in just two games last season due to injury. Also returning is junior forward/center Jahmia Phillips who missed all of last season and has played in just five games in her college career thus far. At 6'3″, she is the tallest player on the LIU roster.
The Newcomers
Four freshmen and three junior college transfers make their debuts for LIU Brooklyn this season. First off is point guard Paris Jones. Jones scored 13.4 points, dished out 2.9 assists and grabbed 2.3 steals per game last season for Santiago HS in Corona, CA. Jones could be in competition for the open starting point guard position. Forward DeAngelique Waithe played in 22 games for her high school East Lee County in Florida. She averaged 18.3 points and 2.3 rebounds per game last season. She could very likely see plenty of playing in front court this season if not have a chance to start. Guard/Forward Stylz Sanders played in 31 games last season for her high school Mansfield Summit HS in Texas. She averaged 11.4 points, 4.8 rebounds and 2.2 steals per game her senior season. Guard Drew Winter is the only local in this freshman class. The Plainfield, NJ native averaged 18.2 points, 2.7 rebounds, 3.3 assists, and 2.9 steals per game her senior season.
Now on to the juco transfers and we start with junior forward Angelia Allen. She played in only eight games last season for Northeast Mississippi Community College. She missed her team's last 15 games. She averaged 12.5 points and 7.9 rebounds per games while she was in the lineup. She shot under 30% from both the field and beyond the three-point line. Junior guard Shanice Vaughan played in 31 games last season for Paris Junior College. She averaged 9.1 points and 6.1 rebounds per game while shooting 44.4% from the floor and 23.7% from three. She scored a season-high 18 points last season. Lastly, junior forward Jolanna Ford comes from New Mexico Junior College where she averaged 7.0 points and 4.9 rebounds in 30 games played last season. She went for 18 points twice last season. She shot 37.5% from the field but just 16.7% from three.
The Coaching Staff
Head coach Gail Striegler returns for her seventh season at the helm of the LIU Brooklyn women's basketball team. Her overall record at LIU is 87-94 (.481 win %). LIU has gone 16-43 the last two seasons after averaging nearly 18 wins per season her first four years.
Lisa Pace will begin her fifth season at LIU.This will be her fourth season as LIU's associate head coach. Terrell Coburn begins his fourth season as an assistant coach at LIU. Former Columbia women's head coach Paul Nixon joins Striegler's staff this season as an assistant coach. Nixon was Columbia's head coach from 2005 to 2012. His best season at Columbia was in 2009-10 where he took the Lions to an 18-10 record. Finally, Hillary Spears joins LIU Brooklyn for her first season as Director of Basketball Operations. Spears comes for the WNBA's Indiana Fever where she was previously their Basketball Operations Intern for the 2013 season. She played her college ball at Division II University of South Carolina-Aiken. Both Nixon and Spears replace Erin Geary and Chelsea Wolf who were part of last season's staff.
The Schedule
LIU Brooklyn start their season on Sunday, November 16th on the road at Maine. They open their home schedule on Thursday, November 20th against former NEC rival Monmouth at the Steinberg Wellness Center. They then host their annual LIU Turkey Classic on Thanksgiving weekend with La Salle, Rhode Island and Towson all participating. December starts with a home game versus Rider and then a pair of road games against Columbia and NJIT. LIU returns back home to face Howard and Buffalo before going out west to California to close out non-conference play against Long Beach State and Cal State Bakersfield.
The Blackbirds open NEC action in January with a pair of home games against Bryant and Fairleigh Dickinson. They then head to Staten Island to face Wagner and then return home once again for another pair of games versus Sacred Heart and Mount St. Mary's. The Mount St. Mary's game will be played at the Barclays Center. After four games out of five at home to start the NEC season, LIU hits the road for four straight games starting with Central Connecticut State before moving on to Fairleigh Dickinson, Bryant and then St. Francis Brooklyn. LIU returns back to the Steinberg Wellness Center for a three-game home stand which starts with Central Connecticut State and then move on to games against Saint Francis (PA) and last season's NEC champions Robert Morris. LIU heads to Pennsylvania for a pair of road games against Saint Francis (PA) and Robert Morris before returning home to face Wagner. LIU closes out the road schedule with a pair of games against Mount St. Mary's and Sacred Heart before closing out the 2014-15 schedule with the annual Battle of Brooklyn game against St. Francis Brooklyn at the Steinberg Wellness Center.
The NEC women's basketball tournament begins on Saturday, March 7 and the final will held on Sunday, March 15.
Season Outlook
With just one returning starter on a team that finished 9-21 last season and with another round of eight new players brought into this program, it might be hard to see where there is going to be tremendous improvement record-wise over last season. On paper, the recruiting class that Coach Striegler has brought into LIU this season seems to be a very good one which will help the overall program and continue the steady improvement this team had last season. Yet, there are question marks on who will carry the offense for the Blackbirds. Sophie Bashin is probably the likely candidate but she will have to have better shooting percentages from both the field (32.8 career FG%) and behind the three line (31.8 career 3FG%).
Also, who will run the offense for LIU? Kelly Robinson is gone so their is opening at the starting point guard spot. The competition in preseason for that spot should be fierce but there won't be a lot of experience coming from that position this season. Also, who does Coach Striegler have to rely on in the front court? Will she go with the juco transfers she brought in or will she let her young and relative inexperienced sophomores and freshmen play and learn as they go along. It will be interesting to see what she does.
Last season, LIU Brooklyn finished last in the NEC in scoring offense (59.6 ppg), seventh in field goal percentage (38.9%), ninth in three-point field goal percentage (28.2%), and last in assist-to-turnover percentage. They scored 0.84 points per possession in just under 71 possessions per game. They have to get an improvement out of the offense and get points on the scoreboard to give themselves a chance in games.Their defense was second-best in the NEC in points allowed (64.0) and points allowed per possession (0.91). If they can continue playing tough defense and just get their offense up to par, then LIU should see an improvement in their overall record and in their final conference standing.
If this team can find their offense early then I believe they can surprise this season and get back to double-digit wins for the season. If the offense once again struggles this season like it has in the last couple of seasons, then it is just going to be more of the same.
I believe we will see Sophie Bashin and Letava Whippy getting themselves on to one of the All-NEC teams at the end of the season and possibly see one of the freshmen make it on to the All-NEC rookie team.
I feel that they can get more wins from their non-conference schedule than they did a year ago where they only got two wins. I think they should at least equal the seven NEC wins they got a season ago and it would be considered a success if they finish as a .500 team in conference.
I'm going to say, the LIU Brooklyn women's basketball team will finish with at least five non-conference wins and will go just fall short of .500 in conference at 8-10 and get either themselves probably either a seven or eight-seed in the NEC tournament. I predict a 13-16 final record which for them would be a four-game improvement over last season.

With only six deals on tap this week, the low activity continues.

The West Plains municipal court was audited in December 2014 and earned an overall performance rating of "fair." The follow-up report, which does not include an overall rating, highlights the steps the court has taken to implement audit recommendations and notes areas where concerns remain.
In the West Plains Municipal Court follow-up report, audit staff followed up on all ten recommendations. At the time of the follow-up review, seven recommendations were implemented, two recommendations were in progress and one was partially implemented. Steps included properly retaining individual case records, immediately processing court transactions, and that a system is in place to track traffic violation tickets and associated fines and court costs.
The follow-up review for West Plains Municipal Court was primarily conducted in June 2015.
A link to the complete follow-up report is available here.
(Jefferson City) – The Senate Interim Committee on the Sanctity of Life held its first hearing in Jefferson City on Monday, July 27. The panel was formed as a result of recent videos that have surfaced that may relate to Planned Parenthood. The interim committee is chaired by Sen. Kurt Schaefer, R-Columbia, who says — if the videos in question represent fact — then state laws have been broken:
During an organizational meeting, Sen. Maria Chappelle-Nadal, D-University City — via telephone — mentions she wants the panel to do what is best for the state:
Abortion advocates and Planned Parenthood say that the video, which allegedly shows Planned Parenthood officials discussing the illegal sale of fetal tissue, are "heavily edited" and "sensationalized".
The committee is expected to hold another meeting within a month.

She added that the Jackie Street bridge near Deatherage is also closed until further notice.
(Washington) – US Secretary of Education Arne Duncan recently laid out his vision for America's higher education system of the future.
Duncan spoke with media representatives on Monday afternoon and discussed the importance of college education, and the issues that people in higher education face:
Duncan also talked about some of the things the government needs to do to get students graduated and out of debt:
He added that college graduates with a bachelor's degree typically earn 66% more than those with just a high school diploma, and are far less likely to face unemployment. But with student debt now over $1 trillion, Duncan says that higher education institutions need to be held accountable for failing to educate students:
Data provided by the Department of Education states that Missouri has a 59% graduation rate from a four-year institution, and a default rate of 10%. Arkansas has an overall graduation rate from four-year institutions of 29%, and a 13% default rate.
(Dora) – The group Back to School Basics of Ozark County will be holding a Back to School Fair for students in the Dora School District on August 8.

PRLog - March 21, 2014 - BEDFORD, Texas -- Daystar Television Network has issued a $68,000 check to Pastors Koshy and Joicy Baby of Carmel Community Church in New Delhi, India. The donation was made in response to a $10,000 matching challenge issued by Daystar's Founder and CEO Marcus Lamb, while the pastors were guests on Daystar's flagship show, "Marcus and Joni," this past October. Daystar viewers generously donated $58,000 towards the couple's ministry in India, and with the addition of $10,000 from Daystar, Koshy and Joicy Baby received $68,000.
Koshy and Joicy Baby with Marcus and Joni Lamb
Upon hearing the news, Pastors Koshy and Joicy Baby were very excited, and specified that the money would be put to good use in furthering God's Kingdom in India. "We are so grateful to all of you for connecting with our ministry," says Pastor Koshy. "As most of our educational centers for slum children are on rented facilities, we are planning on purchasing land for new centers for the less fortunate children."
Besides pastoring Carmel Community Church, Koshy and Joicy Baby also run an orphanage for girls who are victims of, or at risk for human trafficking. This ministry was birthed out of a present need in the couple's life, when three slum children were dropped on their doorstep. The children's mother pleaded with the Baby's to take her children because she could no longer care for them. That was 17 years ago, and the Baby's have been teaching, sheltering and caring for young orphaned girls ever since.
Daystar sent a team to India last spring, where they partnered with Koshy and Joicy Baby to bless the women living in the slums of New Delhi with manicures, pedicures, gift bags, new shoes and new saris – a rare luxury for these women. Additionally, Daystar donated scooters and motorcycles to various pastors serving under Pastor Koshy, allowing them to greatly expand the reach of their ministry. The team was also able to bring backpacks, shoes and school supplies to the children living in the orphanage.
"I'm so excited to see Daystar bless Pastors Koshy and Joicy Baby with the much needed funds to continue helping those living in the slums of New Delhi," says Joni Lamb, Co-Founder of Daystar Television Network. "They are truly Jesus' hands extended."
Daystar Television Network is an award winning, faith-based network dedicated to spreading the Gospel 24 hours a day, seven days a week – all around the globe, through all media formats possible. Reaching over 104 million households in the United States and over 2 billion people worldwide, Daystar is the fastest growing faith-based television network in the world.

MI6, By Keith Jeffery
Friday 24 June 2011
Allowed unrestricted access to MI6 files up to 1949, Jeffery has constructed a detailed and compulsive narrative. He achieves this by making the story "essentially one of people".
Starting in 1909 when MI6 was a one-man band run by Mansfield Cumming (fond of disguises and gadgets, "C" was the prototype for Ian Fleming's "M"), Jeffery sketches the "eclectic and cosmopolitan mix" in this odd trade.
They range from novelist Compton Mackenzie, who ran the Aegean Service from an ex-royal yacht, to Dudley Clarke, whose arrest in Madrid in 1941 dressed as a woman (not very convincing) did not hinder his rise to the rank of brigadier.
Towards the end, a more ambiguous figure appears. Kim Philby condemned a would-be Soviet defector "as surely as if he had pulled the trigger".

We had 63 family/friends stay at the Aegean complex for a family vacation this week and our condo was voted #1 for being the nicest. The kitchen had everything we needed and the whole condo was beautifully furnished. I highly recommend this condo and the Aegean complex.
