LAS CRUCES, N.M. -- For the seventh year in a row, the New Mexico State football team will join together with the university, local businesses and the Las Cruces community to raise money for breast cancer research, dedicating the Oct. 19 game against Rice as the "Pink Game."
In 2007, New Mexico State University, its football team and local supports became pioneers of this type of event, when they dedicated one football game week a year to raising funds and awareness for breast cancer research.
The "NMSU Aggies are Tough Enough to Wear Pink" committee is a volunteer group raising funds on behalf of Cowboys for Cancer Research, a 501(c)3 not-for-profit corporation based in Las Cruces, N.M. Since 2007, more than $2.8 million in cash and in-kind contributions have been presented to C4CR. In 2008, 2009, 2010, 2011 and 2012, TETWP's combined fundraising efforts for Cowboys for Cancer Research has made "NMSU Aggies are Tough Enough to Wear Pink" the No. 1 TETWP event in the world.
This season, NM State will continue its role as a pioneer in the quest for a cure to breast cancer by wearing pink jerseys.
Co-chairs for 2013 will be Magellia Boston (wife of Athletics Director McKinley Boston), Laura Conniff (former NM State Regent), Lynda Marie Garcia (current NM State student and employee) and Pat Sisbarro (Vice-President and Director of Marketing for the Sisbarro Dealerships).
In a unique opportunity in 2007, the New Mexico State Athletics Department agreed to designate the football game on Sept. 29 against Arkansas-Pine Bluff, as a breast cancer awareness initiative and fundraiser. Former NM State coach Hal Mumme and his wife, June, brought together four honorary chairwomen for this event, all with strong ties to New Mexico State University and all cancer survivors.
The "Pink Week" will be filled with several fund raising activities, concluding with the game at 6 p.m., Oct. 19 in Aggie Memorial Stadium. A list of events are below. For more information about the events, please visit www.pinkaggie.com.
The Fashion Show Luncheon (Oct. 16 at 11 a.m. - Pan Am Center): In what has become a signature event, NM State's Pan American Center is transformed from a basketball arena to a pink fashion center. With tables set and centerpieces in place, more than 800 women (and a few men) watch breast cancer survivors model the latest fashions and accessories.
Shop for the Cure (Oct. 16 at 10:30 a.m. - Pan Am Center): Before and after the Fashion Show Luncheon local retailers, salons, service groups and others line the concourse of the NMSU Pan American Center with goods, services and much more.
5k/10K Fun Run & Walk (Oct. 19 at 8 a.m. – Aggie Memorial): Saturday begins with more than 700 participants ranging from infants in strollers to seniors in wheel chairs, walking and running in memory of loved ones and survivors.
NM State Football vs Rice (Oct. 19 at 6 p.m. – Aggie Memorial Stadium): On game day, Aggie Memorial Stadium is filled with fans who, for one day, trade NMSU crimson for various shades of pink. At halftime, the crowd goes quiet as the PA announcer asks for a moment of silence then erupts into cheers as the TETWP co-chairs present the total raised for Cowboys for Cancer Research.

Welcome back
Welcome back, Rob Novit. Delighted to see your beautiful photographs and your interviews again.
Fix the roads
Crosland Park is one of the oldest areas in Aiken. Is there a reason the roads are so raggedy? Something must be done about these roads.
Silent Senators
Where are John McCain and Lindsay Graham? We lost people overseas in Libya, and they were on the news all the time. We recently lost 20 children. Why are they not talking about it?
Bring back the draft
We need to do something about gun control. One thing we can do is bring back the draft. All people at the age of 18 will be registered and go through the mental evaluation. That way, there will be a record of people who are mentally unstable, and they can be watched.
A good deed
The lady and staff at the Habitat for Humanity were so very helpful today after the theft of my 87-year-old mother's purse. They were so helpful. My mom was looking at items in the store, and someone took her purse out of the buggy. My mother was quite upset. A special lady noticed and gave my mom $20 for a prescription we had to pick up that day. I wish we had gotten her name. This proves that good people are still around, and we will pass on this good deed to someone else in need.
Take note
I'm happy North Augusta is getting a new stadium. Aiken should take note of this instead of cramming everything on Whiskey Road.
Bible back in school
It is time for us to get Bible study and prayer back in the public schools. It only took one heathen to have it removed. This needs to be voted on by the public.
Thank you for the help
I am a Superstorm Sandy victim, and I wanted to thank a woman I met in Kroger who was so kind. I'm here staying with my sister. This woman bought my groceries, and I would like to thank her. Everyone here has been so kind. This woman made me feel so good.
Not all are mentally ill
There are plenty of violent, angry criminals that are not mentally ill.
Function over form
I agree that Aiken's old buildings, roads and parkways are beautiful, but a bridge is not something decorative. It's there so you don't fall into the ravine.
Tree limbs
The tree limbs are not picked up in New Ellenton. There are lots of people looking for jobs that can surely do better than what's being done.
Lifeguard training
Is there anyone in the area who offers lifeguard training? I've checked with the Red Cross and the Family Y, and neither offer it.
Phone scam
I just got a call from a foreign man calling for Social Security and wanting my information. I hung up before giving him anything. Is anyone else getting these calls?
Stone facing
The Laurens Street bridge should perhaps get a stone or concrete facing. There is a similar bridge in Augusta. I think it would greatly improve our bridge.
Thank you
We at the Cumbee Center to Assist Abused Persons went out for brunch, and someone bought our meal. We appreciated it very much.
Two angels
Our car stalled, and we were pushing it out of the road when two angels appeared to help us. We would like to thank Mike and Kelley for their assistance that day.
Beautiful wedding cake
There was a lady who used to live on Silver Bluff Road who did beautiful wedding cakes. Does anyone know what became of her?
Closed early
I agree that the bridge is unsightly. It's terrible that downtown is closed at 6 p.m. There are people milling about with nowhere to shop.
Space on the Westside
Longhorn doesn't necessarily need to go on the Southside. There is plenty of space on the Westside, and we sure would like to have it.
A bridge is a bridge
Why are so many people complaining about the bridge? It cost enough to build the thing. Where are we getting the money to do all this work to it? You can dress a mule as a race horse, and it's still a mule.
Badly timed light
The Eastgate Drive light to turn on to Whiskey Road is terribly timed. A line of cars can't get through before it changes. A traffic study needs to be done.
Steer clear
People need to get over the bridge. It's a bridge. It looks liked a bridge. If you don't like it, drive in such a way that you don't have to see it.
Does Gov. Haley have the authority to appoint someone to office? I thought that is why we had voting rights.
Let felons work
I see they are trying to pass a law so convicted felons can't get rifles. They need to pass a law that says people need to hire convicted felons. We have to pay bills, too.
Switch funding
I think arming the schools would be a good thing. They say it will cost more than a billion dollars. They need to take these people off welfare and put it back into the schools. They need to get out and work. They can rake yards if nothing else, but they need to be working. The money will serve us better in the schools.

Project Description
The purpose of this study is to analyze and assess the zone comprised of the top of the storage formation rock and bottom of the overlying confining zones (known as the confining zone/formation interface, Figure 1) surrounding CO2 injection wells. Effective confining zones are typically low-permeability rock units that are relatively thick and serve as a seal above the storage formation rock that prevents any injected CO2 from migrating upwards out of the storage formation. The study is using information obtained from rock outcropings and core samples of proposed CO2 clastic formations and overlying mudstone confining zones to determine the characteristics of this interface zone, and is using these data to develop conceptual models of the behavior of formation-confining zone interfaces and, in particular, sandstone/mudstone contacts. The New Mexico Institute of Mining and Technology (NMIMT), in collaboration with Utah State University and Sandia National Laboratories, is examining the primary depositional texture of the sediment at the interface, the structural characteristics of the rock within this zone, and the changes that the sediment underwent as it transformed into rock and following rock formation (diagenesis). These elements affect how the rock responds physically and chemically to CO2 injection. Of concern is the possibility that mesoscale (centimeters to several meters) features at the interface—such as zones where the rock interfaces are preferentially cemented (diagenetic), or is deformed (e.g., fractures)—may greatly influence the degree that the formation and confining zone are connected (Figure 2). High connectivity may in some cases provide leakage pathways into the confining zone, compromising its ability to provide a long-term seal for stored CO2.
Project Benefits
The overall goal of the Department of Energy's (DOE) Carbon Storage Program is to develop and advance technologies that will significantly improve the effectiveness of geologic carbon storage, reduce the cost of implementation, and prepare for widespread commercial deployment between 2020 and 2030. Research conducted to develop these technologies will ensure safe and permanent storage of carbon dioxide (CO2) to reduce greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions without adversely affecting energy use or hindering economic growth. Geologic carbon storage involves the injection of CO2 into underground formations that have the ability to securely contain the CO2 permanently. Technologies being developed for geologic carbon storage are focused on five storage types: oil and gas reservoirs, saline formations, unmineable coal seams, basalts, and organic-rich shales. Technologies being developed will work towards meeting carbon storage programmatic goals of (1) estimating CO2 storage capacity +/- 30 percent in geologic formations; (2) ensuring 99 percent storage permanence; (3) improving efficiency of storage operations; and (4) developing Best Practices Manuals. These technologies will lead to future CO2 management for coal-based electric power generating facilities and other industrial CO2 emitters by enabling the storage and utilization of CO2 in all storage types. The DOE Carbon Storage Program encompasses five Technology Areas: (1) Geologic Storage and Simulation and Risk Assessment (GSRA), (2) Monitoring, Verification, Accounting (MVA) and Assessment, (3) CO2 Use and Re-Use, (4) Regional Carbon Sequestration Partnerships (RCSP), and (5) Focus Area for Sequestration Science. The first three Technology Areas comprise the Core Research and Development (R&D) that includes studies ranging from applied laboratory to pilot-scale research focused on developing new technologies and systems for GHG mitigation through carbon storage. This project is part of the Core R&D GSRA Technology Area and works to develop technologies and simulation tools to ensure secure geologic storage of CO2. It is critical that these technologies are available to aid in characterizing geologic formations before CO2-injection takes place in order to predict the CO2 storage resource and develop CO2 injection techniques that achieve optimal use of the pore space in the reservoir and avoid fracturing the confining zone (caprock). The program's R&D strategy includes adapting and applying existing technologies that can be utilized in the next five years, while concurrently developing innovative and advanced technologies that will be deployed in the decade beyond. This research project is obtaining a better knowledge base of the characteristics of the interface between the confining zones above the storage formation and the storage formation rock itself. Increased understanding in this area will allow for better selection of storage sites that can effectively contain CO2 in the formation. This work benefits the carbon capture and storage community by advancing the understanding of dynamics specific to the confining zone/formation interface and improving models used by the carbon capture and storage community to predict and characterize potential storage formations. This contributes to the Carbon Storage Programmatic goal of demonstrating 99 percent storage permanence by better understanding the conditions encountered at the interface of the confining layer and storage formation. Additionally, training of future carbon capture and storage professionals is enhanced through opportunities for interaction between personnel at Sandia National Laboratories and students and faculty at Utah State University and NMIMT. Goals/Objectives
This study is assessing depositional, structural, and diagenetic characteristics of confining zone/formation interfaces of proposed CO2 injection formations, and how insight gained from observation linked to coupled modeling can guide inferences into best modeling practices. NMIMT is examining outcrop analogs and core samples of proposed CO2 clastic formations and overlying mudstone confining zone and performing laboratory testing to properly characterize the thermal, hydrological, chemical, and mechanical properties of sandstone-mudrock interfaces. Some of the specific topics addressed in this study include:
How physical properties of sand/mudstone interfaces influence CO2 storage and transport.
How geochemical perturbations.
Induced by CO2 emplacement influence leakage of CO2 across the interface.
How the physical/chemical properties at the interface affect brine migration into confining zones (which could mitigate pressure issues that result from injecting CO2 into the brine saturated formation).
How fractures at the interface respond to increased pressures resulting from CO2 injection into the formation rock.
NMIMT is investigating interfaces in three different formation/seal pairs. The first stage of the project involved a brief field campaign to perform basic description of the interfaces and conduct detailed sampling. The second stage involves laboratory analysis of the samples to identify their key petrographic, geochemical, mechanical, and petrophysical properties. Finally, the descriptive information acquired in the first two steps is being used as input data for a detailed coupled thermal, hydrologic, mechanical, and chemical modeling investigation of the implication for transmission of fluids across the interface. The modeling effort includes generating a range of numerical experiments that tests how stresses and fractures are transmitted across the sedimentary interface. NMIMT is examining a range of conditions for fracture propagation across a range of boundaries, including narrow bonded, narrow contact with free slip, and an interface with a finite width. The success of this project depends heavily on successfully classifying field work observations into usable objective functions in terms of how observed sandstone-mudrock interfaces are expected to behave during CO2 injection and storage, and the ability to integrate this understanding in terms of coupled thermal, hydrological, mechanical, and chemical (THMC) models.

Penske Racing driver Brad Keselowski wrapped up a competitive three-race weekend at the Kentucky Speedway in Sparta with his second victory in three years, leading 199 of the 267 laps of Saturday's Quaker State 400 en route to the win. Keselowski placed fifth in Thursday's UNOH 225 Truck race behind winner Kyle Busch and second in Friday's Natiowide race won by Kevin Harvick.
The minor league Owen County Maroon Rebels fought through three tough games this past week to end up with only two losses on the season.
After wins June 16 and 17 against the Henry County Twins and Carroll County Cubs respectfully, the Rebels fell to the Henry County Rockies by one in the fifth inning.
Despite this loss, the team still earned the title of league champions.
Coaches Robin Cobb and Tim MacIntosh said they had never coached a team with so much heart and love of the game.
Larry Dale Perry, center, met with former Cincinnati Bengals quarterback Boomer Esiason, right, and his son Gunnar, left, during the cystic fibrosis shoot held at Elk Creek.
The Owen County Minor League Maroon team recently played three great games and won two of the three.
On June 5 at home, the team won against the Henry County Twins 5-4 with Eli Rice and Caleb Stafford on the pitchers' mound.
A 12-7 win against the Henry County Whitesocks in Henry County June 6 was a nail-biter but the team played tough and pulled a victory out in the last two innings.
On June 7, the Maroon Rebels could not pull out the win as the Henry County Reds gave them the first loss of the season, 5-7.
The Owen County Youth Soccer League held its inaugural Halloween Express of Lexington Memorial Challenge May 24 at the Owen County High School.
The event was a great success due to the support of our local businesses, community and parents.
The Owen County High School baseball team was making its third straight appearance in the Eighth Region baseball tournament May 26 in Henry County.
The Rebels entered their contest with Simon Kenton hoping to advance to the semifinals for the first time since 2007.
The Pioneers were looking to advance for the second straight season by knocking out a 31st District opponent. They defeated Gallatin County in the quarterfinals last season.
The Pioneers would get quality pitching and timely hitting to defeat the Rebels 5-1 to end Owen County's season.
Several members of the Owen County High School track team spent Saturday morning taking part in the Class A State Track Meet at the University of Kentucky. Each of them represented themselves and their school well.
he top finisher was Hunter Trenary, who finished third in the 3200- meter run. This was an improvement for the senior who finished seventh in the same event last year.
Also for the boys, it was Seth Shafer placing 23rd in the discus while the 4x800-meter relay team of Kyler Law, Cory Hudnall, Daniel Lopez and Keith Stout placed 15th.
By reaching the 31st District championship game May 23, the Owen County High School baseball team assured a third-straight trip to the Eighth Region baseball tournament.
They were also hoping for something a little more as well.
The Rebels began the tournament May 19 in New Castle and needed two wins to reach the championship game.
The defending district champs played like it on the first two nights as they knocked off Eminence 10-0 in the first round and Gallatin County High School 5-0 in the semifinals.

Which TV Character Is the Most Evil? (POLL)
There are characters on TV that we don't like, and then there are characters that are straight-up evil. This isn't about loving or hating a character; this is about whether a character sets people on fire for fun, or makes people beat each other up for jollies. These villains go beyond just not being decent human beings.
Maybe they started out sympathetic and their current character is just a shadow of what they were in Season 1. Perhaps they're a stand-in for all evil, like the Man in Black on Lost. They could be good people normally, but, like Sister Mary Eunice on American Horror Story: Asylum, they're possessed by an evil force.
Like Damon Pope in Sons of Anarchy, sometimes we don't know what happened to make them that way, but we do know that they're definitely a sociopath. Or maybe they were just born evil -- you may notice that Joffrey Baratheon from Game of Thrones is still, technically speaking, a child.
Some of these characters may be currently wreaking havoc, like Kitty Wilde on Glee, while some, like Arvin Sloane on Alias or Killer BOB from Twin Peaks, are vintage nightmare fuel.
Which of these characters makes you shiver with fear? Are there any of these where you yell "STOP" when a favorite character is going to be in contact with them? Vote for the most evil character on TV below!
They're not evil! Just misunderstood.
They all give me the willies!

Located on the banks of the Tennessee River and adjacent to the campus of UTC, Scrappy Moore Field is named after longtime Mocs head coach and college football hall of famer A.C. "Scrappy" Moore. The Moore family has made sure that the facility has provided a perfect practice location for Mocs football for decades. Thanks to the generosity of Haugerud and Murphy, along with a number of other UTC football alumni and supporters, Scrappy Moore Field is now updated, upgraded and on par with any other facility of its kind.
"We are very thankful to Renee and John, and all of the supporters of our program who helped with this project," stated UTC Director of Athletics Rick Hart. "Scrappy Moore Field has always been a special place that holds many fond memories for our football alumni. Now as the Murphy-Haugerud Football Practice Complex, Scrappy Moore Field is outfitted as well as any other facility in the country."
The bulk of the renovations were funded by Haugerud and Murphy and included a new artificial turf playing surface that covers half of the complex. This turf replaces, and nearly doubles the size of, the outdated artificial surface that was present. A new irrigation system was also installed for the grass playing surface that covers the remaining part of the field.
Gary Davis and the Chattanooga Coca-Cola Bottling Company donated a new scoreboard and play clock. Former Mocs Don Lepard and Johnny Owens provided the labor and funds to install the scoreboard. Scrappy Moore Field did not previously have a scoreboard or play clock in use.
Former Mocs kicker Rodney Allen helped to raise funds for a permanent goalpost on one end of the field. The new goalpost replaced the older, portable ones used by the special teams units in previous years. Ryan Crimmins of Lawson Electric helped to install the new goalpost.
The Mocs had their first practice at the new Murphy-Haugerud Football Practice Complex at Scrappy Moore Field today. Unfortunately, storms in the area interrupted and ultimately cut short their first workout of the season. Be sure to check back to GoMocs.com for a full report. They will be back on the field tomorrow morning at 7:45 a.m. (E.D.T.) for their second practice of fall camp.

Trial date put off in NYC 1979 missing-boy case
NEW YORK (AP) - A New York murder trial for a suspect in one of the country's most prominent missing-child cases is being postponed for months as psychiatric exams and other preparations continue.
Pedro Hernandez had been tentatively set to go on trial in April in the case surrounding Etan Patz (AY'-tahn payts). But a judge said Wednesday he now anticipates the trial starting in September.
Six-year-old Etan disappeared while walking to his school bus stop in 1979. He was one of the first missing children to appear on a milk carton. The anniversary of his disappearance became National Missing Children's Day.
Hernandez was arrested in 2012 after police got a tip. The 53-year-old Maple Shade, N.J., resident gave authorities a confession, but his defense argues it was false and prompted by mental illness.

I haven't finished my original tube of Dragon, though I suspect I am nearly the end, and had already repurchased a second tube for future use. I bought five more, though I plan to distribute a few of those to my favorite people this Christmas. It's still available (at least online) at Nordstrom and Saks.

Bedroom window treatments should naturally provide privacy, but should also be comfortable and inviting. We put together some window treatment selections for your bedroom that are both functional and beautiful, and a guide to selecting bedroom window treatments you'll love - balancing the needs of privacy, light, decor and the way you'll interact with your new window treatments. All at a great value.
A primary consideration for your bedroom window treatments is how much light you want to allow in your window. For some, the #1 consideration of bedroom window treatments is improving the sleep environment by making the room totally dark. If this is your top goal, skip straight to shades with the blackout feature.
The blackout feature is intended to provide total light blockage for your bedroom window. Shades are much more effective at blocking all light than blinds, and blackout is an option for nearly every type. Most commonly, the effect is created with a light-colored, sewn on liner that faces the outside. Since this option is available for nearly all shades, you can rest assured that better sleep is on the way and instead, focus on something more enjoyable, like style and color!
If you're not going for total darkness, top down- bottom up is another feature that offers flexibility in privacy and light control. With a top down-bottom up bedroom window treatment, simply grasp a small unobtrusive handle on either the top of bottom of the shade material and position as you like. The ability to open a shade from the top is a great way to let in light while retaining privacy.
For many of us, bedroom window treatments must simply provide privacy and light control, without the need for total darkness. If this is your case, your primary consideration will be style. Here's a primer on the major types of bedroom window treatments:
Blinds are simple, classic and highly functional. From inexpensive white vinyl blinds to wood blinds with a stained finish and cloth tape in a complementary color, blinds can be anything from spartan to sophisticated and can be dressed up with curtains or a valance. Valances are the covers at the top of the mechanism and can be flush to the window, or can protrude for a more high-impact look. Choose blinds if you want to match existing styles in your home, or if you simply prefer the operation of the slats over the solid material in a shade.
Shades are solid material that provide a degree of light blockage based on the nature of the material, and adjust by sliding open and closed, versus a blind's ability to vary light across the full window from minimum to maximum by adjusting the slats. Their advantage is privacy WITH light. Blinds provide privacy only by blocking light.

How to create your own station in iTunes Radio for iOS
If you're running iOS 7 on your iPhone or iPad, iTunes Radio comes bundled right in the Music app. While you can always listen to the stations Apple is currently featuring, you can also create your own based on any genre, album, or track you'd like.
Here's how:
- Launch the Music app from the Home screen of your iPhone or iPad running iOS 7.
- Tap on the iTunes Radio tab in the bottom navigation if you aren't there already.
- Scroll down a bit and tap on the plus sign on the block labeled New Station.
- Here you can search for an artist, pick a genre, or look for a particular song.
- Tap on the result you'd like to create a station based on.
That's all there is to it. iTunes Radio will automatically start playing songs based on your criteria. The station will also appear under your My Stations section so you can always go back and listen to that station again whenever you'd like without creating it again.

How to create your own station in iTunes Radio for iOS
Do not get too excited. It can be way off on music. I made a Chet Atkins radio, and it plays Chet, and all other country music, mostly singers. I made a Doyle Dykes radio, and it just plays classical violin, not any guitar music from Doyle Dykes. I know Chet, and Doyle are not mainstream so to speak, but Pandora does a much better job at playing the listed artist. To me, iTunes Radio needs to do better.
You are also supposed to be able to customize the station by adding other genres. As far as I can tell this feature is broken. You can add the genres but music from a genre other than the original genre never gets played.
I was hoping to use this more, but in all my stations, the same songs just keep repeating. I've even had it where it played the same song back to back a couple times. Usually though, it will repeat the same songs every 5-10 tracks...big disappointment.
I have been using iTunes radio since it came out and am enjoying it. I tend to use the "play more" or "never play" to my playlists. My 2 favorites are Little Comets Radio and The Colourist Radio. Tracks are similar so I may exhaust my skips sometimes and switch but it works. Found tracks from artist that I heard about but never took the time to listen to. My iTunes has gained about 20 albums since then. iTunes Radio is still a work in progress . Chose Jack and Neverlands Pirate radio for my son and the first track was rap with the foulest of language.
I can barley use this app bc it always back me out from radio to try again later, im in USA ET so idk this keeps happening, i finnaly created a station without picking apple listed genres, so i created Pink Floyd, worked for a while until i stopped it bc it was getting late, this was stil iOS 7, later when i wanted the radio again, it fails, created a new station, still fails, so what gives? now in 7.0.2 and still, same oh same oh, fails, ipod touch 5g
i cant play 80's and backs me out where it says "iTunes unavailable", quick second later, dissapears and reshows feature stations but can't play for crap.

Budget cuts' impact may be hard to see right awayBy MICHAEL D. SHEAR
The New York Times | March 03,2013WASHINGTON Seventeen months after President Barack Obama signed doomsday budget legislation that was never intended to become law, the sweeping spending reductions in the measure have been imposed.
Late Friday night, Obama formally triggered spending cuts that will reach across the breadth of the federal government after he failed to persuade congressional Republicans to replace them with a mix of cuts and tax increases.
In a 70-page report to Congress accompanying the order and detailing the reductions agency by agency and program by program Jeffrey D. Zients, Obamas budget director, called them deeply destructive to national security, domestic investments and core government functions.
But even as the cuts become official, some of the immediate impact is difficult to see.
The process of trimming government budgets is slow and cumbersome, involving lengthy notifications to unions about temporary furloughs, reductions in overtime pay and cuts in grant financing to state and local programs. Less federal money will, over time, mean fewer government contracts with private companies. Reduced overtime for airport security checkpoint officers will make lines longer, eventually.
And so as the first weekend began for the new, slimmer government, little of that is evident yet.
Letters to governors, informing them of the smaller grants are beginning to go out, officials said. Shaun Donovan, the secretary of housing and urban development, wrote to Gov. John R. Kasich of Ohio: You can expect reductions totaling approximately $35 million, helpfully putting the amount in a bold type.
The Air Force Thunderbirds the elite team of F-16 pilots who perform tricks at air shows announced on its website that all of its shows have been canceled starting April 1. The last show will be in Titusville, Fla., on March 23.
Still, it will take some time, officials acknowledged, before the cuts begin to make life more difficult for teachers, defense contractors, Head Start students, border patrol agents or others who rely on the largess of the federal government.
On Friday, Obama used janitors and security guards as examples of federal employees whose pay will be cut because of the reductions. Theyve got to figure out how to manage that, he said.
In fact, as pointed out by The Washington Posts Fact Checker, Capitol officials emailed the buildings staff to say that the presidents comment was not true. The Capitols sergeant-at-arms, who is in charge of the buildings officers, said that, None of my employees will have their pay cut nor will they face furloughs.
In his weekly address on Saturday morning, the president acknowledged that the reductions would not affect everyone equally.
While not everyone will feel the pain of these cuts right away, the pain will be real, Obama said. Many middle-class families will have their lives disrupted in a significant way.
And heading into the weekend, some officials seemed eager to offer reassurance that government would continue to function despite the deep cuts.
While Leon E. Panetta, who just left the job of defense secretary, had thundered about the critical risk to national security and lamented what he viewed as a shift of Washingtons political class away from good governance his successor, Chuck Hagel, spoke in more conciliatory terms.
To be sure, Hagel listed the specific risks to national security that could arrive with the cuts, also called the sequester. But even as he noted that the United States has the best fighting force, the most capable fighting force, the most powerful fighting force in the world, he pledged that he and the Joint Chiefs of Staff will manage these issues.
These are adjustments, Hagel said of the cuts to be imposed by the cuts. We anticipated these kinds of realities, and we will do what we need to do to assure the capabilities of our forces.
Obama has signaled that he remains eager to replace across-the-board cuts with deficit reduction that consists of more targeted reductions and increased revenue from closing tax loopholes. An email sent late Friday to supporters from his former campaign operation had the subject line Devastating.
Congress can stop all of this right away and pursue a balanced approach to deficit reduction, wrote Jon Carson, the president of Organizing for Action, the political operation created to advance the presidents agenda. Thats what the vast majority of Americans want.
But Obama, too, said in his address on Saturday that it was time to move on to other topics.
Im going to push through this paralysis and keep fighting for the real challenges facing middle-class families, he said, citing efforts to increase the minimum wage, provide money for more preschool for children and pass an immigration overhaul.
In the Republican radio response, Rep. Cathy McMorris Rodgers of Washington state, the chairwoman of the Republican conference, also called the cuts devastating to America, but said that Republicans in the House would not yield on the issue of taxes.
Spending is the problem, which means cutting spending is the solution, she said. Its that simple.
In fact, nothing about the sequestration law is simple. And the 70-page report on its implementation proves that point. The report calculates how much each program will lose, as required by sections 251A(7)(A) and 253(f)(2) of BBEDCA. Those numbers are detailed in page after page of complex tables.
In his letter, Zients called the law establishing the cuts a blunt and indiscriminate instrument. It was never intended to be implemented and does not represent a responsible way for our nation to achieve deficit reduction.MORE IN This Just InThe family of a Connecticut man who was killed in a car accident on Route 4 last Friday night is...

By Bob Vazquez, Assistant Athletics Director, Strategic Communications
Irvine, Calif. – The first person you notice in UC Irvine warmup drills is Mamadou Ndiaye, the tallest player in collegiate basketball this season. Ndiaye, a freshman from Dakar, Senegal, is 7-feet-6.
Ndiaye has the height and the physical stature of a future NBA star. Tipping the scales at 290 pounds, Ndiaye dwarfs over his opponents.
Guarding the talented freshman fell primarily to CSUN's Stephen Maxwell and Tre Hale-Edmerson, who are both 6-foot-7. Despite the size mismatch, Maxwell, Hale-Edmerson and his front line teammates refused to buckle under to the imposing figure of Ndiaye, who leads the conference in blocks and is shooting nearly 78 percent from the floor.
Maxwell ended the evening with 21 points and a career-high 15 rebounds, while Hale-Edmerson worked his way underneath with eight points and seven rebounds.
Ndiaye scored ten points (5-for-5 from the floor), grabbed ten rebounds and blocked seven shots to lead UC Irvine to a 72-66 victory over Cal State Northridge in a Big West Conference game on Thursday night at the Bren Center.
Matador head coach Reggie Theus preaches attacking the basket. Despite Nidaye's imposing presence, the Matadors looked aggressive on the offensive end. But a 35 percent shooting effort proved to be the achilles heal, according to Theus.
"We had our chances, but when you shoot 35 percent from the floor and lose by six points, …" said Theus, who surveyed the box score. "We are so close to being really good. It is not about this game. I told the team, this is a marathon. It is about putting yourself into position for the conference tournament. The effort and the type of game we played tonight will pay dividends down the stretch."
The Matadors jumped to a quick 5-0 lead thanks to a three-pointer by Landon Drew and a layup basket by Maxwell in the first minute of the contest. But a 27-4 run by the pre-season conference favorite Anteaters, gave the home team a 16-point lead (27-9) with 9:31 remaining in the first half.
Cal State Northridge refused to fold. Their efforts at attacking the basket cut the UCI lead to only seven points at halftime, 36-29.
Cal State Northridge pushed and pushed the pace again in the second half. Their aggressive effort cut the Anteater lead to only three points, 63-60, with 1:54 to play. Aaron Parks and Maxwell led the effort. Parks scored nine of his 14 points in the second half while Maxwell scored 12 second-half points.
"Aaron Parks is physical and knows to get to the free throw line," said Theus. "Aaron was 7-for-9 from the free throw line and that was big for us. Fourteen points in 17 minutes is very solid."
UC Irvine, however, looked strong at the free throw line, hitting 7-of-8 free throws in the final 43 seconds to claim a 4-0 conference record and a 13-7 overall record. Cal State Northridge fell to 2-3 in league competition and 10-10 overall.
"We missed some shots around the basket," said Theus. "That was our Achilles heal."
Cal State Northridge continued to excel from the free throw line. The Matadors, ranked second in the nation, hit 20-of-24 free throw attempts for .833. In ten games this year, CSUN has shot 80 percent from the free throw line.
Cal State Northridge will face UC Irvine later this season. That game is on Feb. 22 at the Matadome.
CSUN travels to Long Beach State on Saturday at 4:00 pm.
Matador Memo …
Josh Greene continues to move up the career points ladder at CSUN … With eight points at UC Irvine, Greene now has 1,294 career points to move into fifth place all-time, just ahead of Jim Malkin (1,292 career points, 1959-62) … Stephan Hicks now has moved into a tenth place tie in career points all-time at CSUN … Hicks' ten points against the Anteaters give him 1,173 career points to move into a tie with Markus Carr (1,173 career points, 1998-02) in tenth place … Greene's 2-for-2 free throw effort gives him 90-of-100 for .900, currently a single season school record … Stephen Maxwell's career-high 15 rebounds gives him 574 in his three-year Matador record to move ahead of Mark Cooley (568 career rebounds, 1964-67) into eighth place all-time at Cal State Northridge.

Pronounced: PRAL-a-TREX-ate
Classification: Antimetabolite
Pralatrexate is a specific anitmetabolite, called an antifolate, designed to accumulate in cancer cells. Antifolates, such as pralatrexate, mimic the structure of naturally occurring molecules involved in DNA synthesis. Cancer cells mistake antimetabolites for normal metabolites allowing the compound to stop or slow critical enzymes involved in DNA synthesis, which then triggers cell death.
Pralatrexate is given by intravenous (IV) infusion over 3-5 minutes, once a week. The dose is based on the patient's height and weight.
Pralatrexate interferes with certain vitamins in the body, so patients receiving this therapy must supplement these vitamins to reduce the risk of serious side effects. Patients will need to take folic acid daily (1-1.25 milligrams per day), beginning 10 days before pralatrexate and continued for 30 days after the last dose. In addition, patients will need to receive an injection of vitamin B12 (1mg) in their doctor's office prior to starting therapy with pralatrexate and every 8-10 weeks thereafter. Subsequent B12 injections can be given the same day as pralatrexate.
There are a number of things you can do to manage the side effects of Pralatrexate. Talk to your doctor or nurse about these recommendations. They can help you decide what will work best for you. These are some of the most common side effects:
White blood cells (WBC) are important for fighting infection. While receiving treatment, your WBC count can drop, putting you at a higher risk of getting an infection. You should let your doctor or nurse know right away if you have a fever (temperature greater than 100.4°), sore throat or cold, shortness of breath, cough, burning with urination, or a sore that doesn't heal.
Tips to preventing infection:
For more suggestions, read the Neutropenia Tip Sheet.
Your red blood cells are responsible for carrying oxygen to the tissues in your body. When the red cell count is low, you may feel tired or weak. You should let your doctor or nurse know if you experience any shortness of breath, difficulty breathing or pain in your chest. If the count gets too low, you may receive a blood transfusion. Read the anemia tip sheet for more information.
Platelets help your blood clot, so when the count is low you are at a higher risk of bleeding. Let your doctor or nurse know if you have any excess bruising or bleeding, including nose bleeds, bleeding gums or blood in your urine or stool. If the count becomes too low, you may receive a transfusion of platelets.
Read the thrombocytopenia tip sheet for more information.
Take anti-nausea medications as prescribed. If you continue to have nausea or vomiting, notify your doctor or nurse so they can help you manage this side effect. In addition, dietary changes may help. Avoid things that may worsen the symptoms, such as heavy or greasy/fatty, spicy or acidic foods (lemons, tomatoes, oranges). Try antacids, (e.g. milk of magnesia, calcium tablets such as Tums), saltines, or ginger ale to lessen symptoms. Read the Nausea & Vomiting Tip Sheet for more suggestions.
Call your doctor or nurse if you are unable to keep fluids down for more than 12 hours or if you feel lightheaded or dizzy at any time.
This medication can cause severe skin reactions including rash, sores, peeling and blistering of skin. Notify your oncology team if you develop any skin reactions.
While on cancer treatment you may need to adjust your schedule to manage fatigue. Plan times to rest during the day and conserve energy for more important activities. Exercise can help combat fatigue; a simple daily walk with a friend can help. Talk to your healthcare team and see OncoLink's section on fatigue for helpful tips on dealing with this side effect.
There are several things you can do to prevent or relieve constipation. Include fiber in your diet (fruits and vegetables), drink 8-10 glasses of non-alcoholic fluids a day and keep active. Your doctor or nurse can also recommend medications to relieve constipation. A stool softener once or twice a day may prevent constipation.
Certain cancer treatments can cause sores or soreness in your mouth and/or throat. Notify your doctor or nurse if your mouth, tongue, inside of your cheek or throat becomes white, ulcerated or painful. Performing regular mouth care can help prevent or manage mouth sores. If mouth sores become painful, your doctor or nurse can recommend a pain reliever.
Read the mouth ulcer tip sheet for more information.
Fever can be a side effect of pralatrexate, but it can also be an indication of infection. If you experience a fever (temperature above 100.4), you should notify your doctor right away.
Exposure of an unborn child to this medication could cause birth defects, so you should not become pregnant or father a child while on this medication. Effective birth control is necessary during treatment, even if your menstrual cycle stops or you believe your sperm is affected.

Williamsburg County students, Elizabeth Jane Daniel and Kate Carsten, were among a select group of high school juniors and seniors from around the state who recently participated in the 2014 South Carolina Farm Bureau (SCFB) Youth Leadership Conference.
Our Youth Leadership Conference allows students to explore opportunities within agriculture while developing their skills to be leaders in the industry, SCFB Ag Literacy Director Vonne Knight, said.
The conference was based at Newberry College and featured a number of workshops focused on leadership and teamwork. Programs that foster understanding and awareness of agriculture and government were also emphasized. Attendees learned about their local, state and national governments and how they can be advocates through the legislative process. A highlight of the conference included a visit to the South Carolina State House where the students witnessed the swearing in of Interim Lieutenant Governor State Senator Yancey McGill of Williamsburg County.
State Senate Agriculture Committee Chairman Danny Verdin (R-Laurens County) told the students, You just experienced one of the more momentous days in the senate. Youve had quite an education. He added, As youre standing here preparing for your future leadership roles, I feel confident that character and competence is in your future. Thank you for your commitment to self-improvement, skill development, your love for South Carolina, your love for agribusiness, agriculture, for rural communities.
The conference operates on a two-year curriculum cycle where students learn about agricultural marketing and promotion one year and about government relations and agricultural advocacy the next.
South Carolinas agricultural industry is a vital part of the states economy. We advocate so our kids and grandkids can farm long after we are gone. Educating our youth on opportunities available to them within the agriculture industry is the first step in involving students so they can have a lasting voice in todays issues, said SCFB Federation President and Sumter County farmer David Winkles.
SCFB Promotion and Education Division Director Reginald Hall said, Farm Bureau has an array of promotion, education, and leadership development program opportunities for elementary school students, through high school and college, to young farmers, and adults. Each of these is supported through annual membership dues and generous financial contributors.
The conference falls under the umbrella of the Farm Bureau Womens Leadership program. The SC Farm Bureau Federation is a non-profit membership organization formed to promote and preserve the work of family farmers and rural lifestyles across the state. In exchange for their annual dues and financial support of education, promotion, and lobbying efforts on behalf of agriculture and family farmers, Farm Bureau members are entitled to discounts and access to a number of quality products.
SCFB is a not-for-profit membership organization formed to help keep family farmers in business and rural lifestyles thriving across the state. The organization serves more than 100,000 member families in 47 chapters and has been around since 1944.
Persons interested in supporting agricultural education are encouraged to contact their county Farm Bureau office or the South Carolina Farm Bureau Federation at www.scfb.org for additional information
