Seymour girls basketball team focuses on finishing
Seymour's girls basketball team has been in both of its district games this season entering the fourth quarter.
That's where it seems to have gone wrong in back-to-back losses.
"What's been so tough, we've played hard the entire game — both games — and the outcome's not been what we wanted it to be," said Eagles coach Brandi Stallings. "It comes back to us just making mental mistakes, making turnovers at crucial times or being down two points and having to foul."
Seymour has shown it can win games in the fourth. In the team's last game before Thanksgiving the Eagles exploded to outscore Anderson County 16-6 in a 43-35 victory. Since the holiday, the final eight minutes have been a struggle in consecutive district losses to Jefferson County and Morristown West.
The Eagles (4-5, 0-2 2-AAA) were down just two after three quarters to the Patriots before giving up 21 points in the final period. They were in the same position against the Trojans, but gave up 17 points in the fourth quarter of a 54-49 loss.
"Turnovers really hurt us down the stretch," said senior Mariah Flynn. "We could've pulled out the West game had we not had as many turnovers as we had early on. ... That's frustrating when you can't pull off a two-point win because you turned the ball over or something bad happened against your favor that just let the game go."
The Eagles are focusing on communication, particularly on defense, in practice. Seymour has given up close to 20 points in each of its last two fourth quarters. Opponents are averaging less than 14 in the other six quarters.
Victoria Nelson said Stallings reminds the Eagles they can be "chatterboxes" in the locker room but then go silent on the court. Staying loud may just help Seymour get the stops the Eagles need late.
"We just have to be talking more because we're getting confused who has who," Nelson said. "... We get caught up in the moment if we're playing defense good. Then we stop talking."
Stallings said it's all part of a process and she's seeing progress. Big deficits haven't been early knockout punches and Seymour has stayed in games until the end. It's just a matter of making a couple plays down the stretch that lead to wins.
"You've got to have players that make plays, and they will eventually," Stallings said. "We're getting the plays. We're getting the opportunities. They're just not going in. That's fine. I told the girls Friday night, it's a long season, tournament sport. We'll take our bumps now and hopefully it'll all fall into place later in the season."

In his last six games, he is batting .409 (9-for-22) with four RBI. For the summer, he is hitting .341. In the Sunbelt Baseball League, rising sophomore pitcher Drew Moody is 0-1 with a 2.89 ERA in five appearances with the Windward Braves. In 18.2 innings, Moody has just four walks with 20 strikeouts.
Rising sophomore Stephen Wrenn is the lone Bulldog remaining in the Cape Cod Baseball League after rising senior Hunter Cole opted to turn professional last week. Wrenn is batting .200 with five RBI and three stolen bases in 27 games for the Bourne Braves.
The aforementioned Cole became the third Bulldog to begin his professional career this summer. He joined shortstop Nelson Ward and pitcher Jarrett Brown, both who were drafted and signed by Seattle last month. They were assigned to the Pulaski (Va.) Mariners in the Appalachian League. Ward hit .350-1-8 in his first 11 games and was moved up to Everett (Wash.) in the Class A Short Season Northwest League. Brown has made nine relief appearances for a total of 10.1 innings pitched with a 1-1 mark and 1 save.
Cole was leading the CCBL with 25 RBI in 25 games for the Yarmouth-Dennis Red Sox when San Francisco signed him to a professional contract. Cole, who ranked fifth in the CCBL with a .353 average and four home runs, was a 26th-round draft pick of the Giants this past June. The signing deadline for upperclassmen was July 18th. He is slated to report to one of their minor league affiliates in either Arizona or Oregon this week.
The fall semester at UGA begins on Monday, Aug. 18.

Forget the Marlboro Reds and whiskey, what you're developing the biggest dependency on might not be chemical at all: it's social media. According to a study from Chicago University, texting and checking Facebook and Twitter come in just below sex and sleep on impossible to resist urges.
Subjects aged 18-85 were given blackberries and sent out into the wild, and then the researchers messaged them to see if they were feeling urges to check social media: they found that almost all the time, they were experiencing a powerful desire. Of course, the constant Blackberry interaction with reserachers seems to have become a sort of social media of its own.
"Modern life is a welter of assorted desires marked by frequent conflict and resistance, the latter with uneven success," lead researcher Wilhelm Hofmann, told The Guardian. But according to the paper, checking these devices is as much about the desire to work as it is to relax.
"Resisting the desire to work was likewise prone to fail. In contrast, people were relatively successful at resisting sports inclinations, sexual urges, and spending impulses, which seems surprising given the salience in modern culture of disastrous failures to control sexual impulses and urges to spend money."
It's a feeling we're all familiar with — that we'll just sign on, check Facebook, check Twitter, see what's there. The little buildup of tension when the loading screen starts to go, the little release when it jumps and the page loads. It's a quick, easy fix unlikely to give you liver disease or lung cancer, one of the reasons that the addiction may be so much more pervasive than traditionally harmful pastimes.
"With cigarettes and alcohol there are more costs – long-term as well as monetary – and the opportunity may not always be the right one. So, even though giving in to media desires is certainly less consequential, the frequent use may still 'steal' a lot of people's time," said Hoffman.
There's also the argument to be made that social media is just as harmful, forcing someone to recede from the world and into a safe little bubble of status updates and tweets, where human beings aren't troublesome animals but easily compartmentalized profiles. But it's a little easier to make the harm argument with cigarettes.
Though that might be changing soon: click to see what people think of Facebook's new timeline.

P.J. would be the worst thing that the wise folks on the berm could ever do. the college game has changed since P.J. last coached there. When he was at Seton Hall he had Mark Bryant and a host of other second round NBA draft picks on his team that stayed in school for a minimum of three years each.
now,a coach is lucky if he can get any first or second rounders to stay in school for over a year. with the one and done rule,no one will be able to lure top recruits to Oregon because they know that wherever they sign on to play at,they will only be there for one year,and who wants to spend eight months in Eugene when they could be in Memphis (see Derrick Rose and Tyreke Evans) or UCLA where the weather is better. and while we are on UCLA look at how the one and done rule just decimated that team that just last year went back to the NCAA tournament.
now which brings us back to P.J. himself. the man has terrible people skills. he still has not changed one bit from his failed stints at Giolden State,Seattle,and OKC. he honestly thinks that people actually pay money to come and watch HIM call plays from the sidelines. and the most important thing to remember about the Latrell Sprewell incident is that no one from the team,none of the assistant coaches,or anyone from the front office came running to P.J's defense after that incident occurred. I am not condoning what Spre did,but NOBODY in that organization supported P.J. and it is no secret why.
I am going with Mark Few to get the job,he is from Creswell and he is close to Pat Kilkenny. this is his job,and his only.
sorry to tell you TLewis but Seattle and whoever it was that had the third pick was NOT going to select Oden. the reason being is that he failed both of the team physicals that Seattle and the team that had the third pick in the draft that year.
they said and I quote " his knees looked terrible when they gave him an MRI exam,and they knew that he had back and hip problems also. and the Sonic's team doctor stated that all of those injuries were related to the knee injury. he had been favoring the knee for so long that he had thrown his entire back and hips out of alignment.
Oden was injured BEFORE the blazers drafted him, and for that alone Pritchard and whoever else signed on to drafting him should feel the burning of the Romulan Phasers.

Boston: Baingan Bhartha at Punjab Palace
My love for eggplant started later in life (like, two years ago), but I've been addicted to it ever since. It's the spongy fruit's transformative quality that impresses me most; when exposed to enough heat over a long enough period of time, even the densest, thickest specimen will collapse into a plush, silky mass that readily soaks up just about any flavor you throw at it.

Phosphatidylinositol-3-kinase (PI3K) is a crucial mediator of receptor-initiated signaling cascades, through the production of phosphatidylinositol (3,4,5)-triphosphate (PIP-3). Among the major effectors of PI3K is the AKT kinase, which is activated upon PIP-3-mediated membrane recruitment and, in turn, phosphorylates an ever-growing list of target proteins, regulating key processes such as proliferation, survival, cell size, genome stability, metabolism, and mRNA translation. This cascade is counteracted by the PTEN tumor suppressor, which opposes PI3K activity by dephosphorylating PIP-3 to PIP-2. Somatic deletions, mutations and epigenetic inactivation of PTEN have been identified in a large fraction of tumors (endometrial, glioblastoma, prostate, thyroid, melanoma), placing PTEN among the most commonly mutated genes in human cancer.
The central focus of my laboratory is the identification and characterization of the specific biological processes and signaling pathways that are controlled by the PI3K/PTEN/AKT cascade. Our research is centered on tumors originating in the thyroid gland: we utilize genetically engineered mouse models to identify and deconstruct the signaling cascades altered during early neoplastic transformation, to understand through which signaling nodes the PI3K cascade intersects with other growth-promoting pathways, and to design and test in vivo innovative, rationally designed therapeutic approaches.

Safe, Confidential, Same-Day STD Testing in Norfolk
Sexually transmitted diseases are an important issue for the entire Norfolk metro region.
STD Statistics for Norfolk, VA:
Sexually Transmitted Disease

|Syphilis Cases (Virginia)
|Syphilis Rate (Virginia)
|Gonorrhea Cases (Virginia)
|Gonorrhea Rate (Virginia)

|Chlamydia Rate (Virginia)
Virginia reported 19,029 AIDS cases to CDC, cumulatively, from the beginning of the epidemic through December 2008. Virginia ranked 13th highest among the 50 states in cumulative reported AIDS cases.
Virginia ranked 15th among 50 states, with 3.4 cases of P&S syphilis per 100,000 persons. The number of congenital syphilis cases increased from 3 in 1999 to 4 in 2008.
Ranked 22nd among 50 states in chlamydial infections (404.8 per 100,000 persons) and ranked 16th among 50 states in gonorrheal infections (134 per 100,000 persons). Reported rates of chlamydia among women (590.1 cases per 100,000) that were 2.8 times greater than those among men (211 cases per 100,000).
Sexually transmitted diseases like Syphilis, Gonorrhea, Chlamydia, herpes, and HIV can be shared not only through sexual activity, but also during pregnancy, through IV needle sharing, skin-to-skin contact, or breastfeeding.
Norfolk STD facts illustrate the fact that all types of sexual activity can spread STDs. Syphilis, Gonorrhea, Chlamydia, and HIV transmissions are passed through bodily fluids. Other STDs like herpes move from person to person through surface contact. Condoms can reduce the transmission of STDs, but they are not foolproof.
One of the most alarming aspects of current Norfolk STD facts is that many sexually transmitted diseases exhibit no signs or symptoms. The only reliable method Norfolk area residents have to assess their risk is through STD testing.

I have a large 5 bd, 3ba, fully finished basement home and need to put it on the market this year. I also own a 2 story condo that I'll be moving into.I've lived in the large home for 11 years and really LOVED the country appeal, pine crown molding doors, wooden flooring in kitchen and diningroom. All 3 bathrooms have wallpaper in them. Love the choice in wallpaper, but I know in order to appeal more to potential homebuyers...they shouldn't have the wallpaper and to "open" the rooms up more with good focal points. I'm also working on a budget, so I'm wondering if the following are good things to do in the bathrooms without spending alot: 1) painting solid colors2) taking out old carpet in main bathroom and putting a warm tile in3) lighting above mirrors/medicine cabinet4) I have a sliding glass door on my bathtub/shower which is outdated. Should I replace the sliding door or use bathroom rod and curtains? Thank you so much!!
On top of all the comments you mgiht want to update your bathroom fixtures too since this is something potential buyers will touch and use everyday.
There are a ton of cheap things you can do to stage your home. Most of the other comments have already covered them all, but I'd suggest watching some HGTV to help you come up with some cheap home staging tips you can use. We did and it helped a ton!
As a handyman/contractor, who does just about about all types of home improvements and repairs. Weather a new fence or remodeling a bathroom, or just doing a drywall patch, I know a good clean house thats ready for the market when I see it!Yes there are several inexpensive moves you can make that will help you a great deal!1. Yes defenately nutral light solid colors on the wall in the bathroom.2. You can nevery go wrong with tile flooring! However I love a dark cherry colored laminate floor!3. Regardless of floor and and paint, go with a heavy duty dark colored solid curtain for the tub. (cheaper than a door) and looks great...if you have anyother questins, please feel free to visit me at http://www.marblefallshandyman.com or http://www.burnethandyman.com
Hi there!
We have some tips for those selling their homes but in need of a bit of a reno. An excerpt from the article on Smart Investing:
"Consumer reports show that homeowners see an 85% return on the cost
of renovating a bathroom, making it the most important room to upgrade
prior to selling. Consider upping a bathroom's wow factor with luxury
features such as marble counters or flooring and high-end showerheads.
Replace outdated mirrors and fixtures, and swap coloured sinks, tubs or
toilets with white models. Wall sconces positioned on each side of a
vanity mirror are more flattering than overhead fluorescent or globe
lights. Create a spa-look by sticking to neutral colours for walls and
So definitely paint a solid neutral on the wall, remove the sliding door if possible, and replace the carpet flooring with a tile.
Be sure to share before and after pictures with us!
ILVmyHome:1. If you paint the walls and ceiling in your bathroom, be sure to use a paint meant to be used in bathrooms like Zinsser's "PermaWhite" bathroom paint (available at Home Depot) or Sherwin Williams "Bath Paint". The "binder" in latex paint (which is what forms the plastic film) have varying moisture resistance, and some latex paints will crack and peel in a humid and moisture laden environment. By using a paint specifically made for bathrooms, your paint will stand up to the high humidity much better than an ordinary latex paint meant for dry environments.2. There is no such thing as "warm tile" unless you install electrical or hot water heating under the tile floor (or your bathroom is located directly above your house's furnace). Ceramic tile is denser than other floorings, like carpet or vinyl, and so it absorbs heat faster than those other flooring materials. It's that more rapid loss of heat from your foot that makes ceramic tile floors seem cold to bare or stocking feet.You CAN use 100% Olefin carpet in a bathroom. That's because you can use bleach straight out of the jug on 100% Olefin carpet without harming it. That also means you can kill any germs or mildew in that carpet by cleaning it with bleach without harming it. However, since most people don't know that and will assume the carpet is probably harboring all kinds of germs and bacteria, it's probably a safer bet to replace that carpet.In my humble opinion, sheet vinyl flooring (aka: "linoleum") is the most practical flooring for a bathroom.3. Besides the screw holes you'll encounter when you remove your shower doors, you'll probably also have to remove silicone caulking from the tub and wall tiles. There is a product called "Silicone-Be-Gone" made by the DAP company and sold at most home centers specifically made for removing silicone caulk. This product doesn't dissolve the silicone, it simply makes it swell up and get soft so that it's more easily removed by scraping with a razor blade.If mildew growth on the silicone is the reason why you want to remove the shower doors, you can most likely clean that mildew off the silicone quite successfully. I have 21 apartments in my building, and I regularily clean mildew off of silicone caulk whenever a tenant vacates. The resulting "clean" appearance of the bathroom makes it much easier to rent the newly vacated apartment to desireable tenants. (That's the thing about looking after your own rental property; I'm competing with caretakers who don't give a $%&@# what the property looks like cuz they don't own it, so the competition for desireable tenant is not stiff, and it's very easy to do better than my supposed competitors.) Post again if you want to know how to clean mildew discolouration off of silicone caulk. You can also clean mildew off of wall tile grout as well if you want to know how to do that too.If you do remove the shower doors, be aware that there are different kinds of shower rods that can be installed. A shower curtain rod is typically 1 inch outside diameter, and you can buy stainless steel tubing in that size with what's called a "180 brushed" finish. That means that the stainless tubing has been sanded with 180 grit sandpaper to give it a "brushed" texture on it's surface. This is certainly smooth enough to look acceptable in a bathroom. You can also get stainless steel tubing in a "polished" finish, but it's much more expensive. If you look in your yellow pages phone book under "Steel - Fabricators" or "Steel - Stainless & Specialty Steels", you should be able to find someone who uses 1 inch diameter brushed stainless steel tubing who'd be willing to sell you 5 feet of the stuff to use as a shower curtain rod. (Chrome plated steel shower curtain rods will start to rust after a year or two.)
Hi there,I've sold a few homes before---both times within a weekhere's what i would suggest:1) definitely paint solid colours--go with something neutral and current (light grey tones, creams, beiges). Neutrals appeal to most people.2) yes--definitely remove the carpeting in your bathroom. People would most likely be grossed out--mildew, urination from pets are thoughts that come to mind....even if this is not the case in your home.3) yes to lighting above mirrors--or use scones--whatever is cheaper4) I think shower curtains and rods are likely cheaper than getting a new door. You may have to fill the holes/repair the holes where the sliding door is attached.declutter as much as you can---no body wants to see other people's toothbrushes and toiletries. I usually put these in the medicine cabinet or somewhere out of sight if i know someone's coming throughgood luck

Preparing For Your Trip
Now that you have received a trip assignment, there are just a few more things you need to do to prepare for Orientation Adventure.
- All OA trips require a Liability Release Form [pdf] to participate. You can print the Liability Release form [pdf] and fax back to our office at 909-607-9020 prior to arrival at campus. Depending on the trip you are assigned to, you may receive additional forms after August 1. These forms are specific to outside vendors we utilize at particular locations. You will be required to show all the forms at Check-In on August 22.
- If your trip requires a sleeping bag, sleeping pad and/or a multi-day frame pack and you would like to borrow one, please make sure to include the request in your trip sign up form. If you have not reserved on your trip sign up form (in the portal) then we can not guarantee one will be available.
- If you will be under 18 at the time of your participation in OA and your parent(s) or legal guardian(s) are not arriving on campus with you in August, download and complete the Liability Release form [pdf] to take with you to campus.
Each of these steps is explained in more detail below. You might also want to review our Arriving at Pomona page for information about arriving on campus in August. As always, a coordinator will be happy to assist you by phone (909 607-2531) or by email (email@example.com) if you have further questions.
Packing Lists
Please use the appropriate link below to access the packing list for your trip.
- Yosemite Adventure
- Backpacking Adventure
- Camp OA
- Lake Adventures
- Beach Adventures
- Surfing Adventure
- Kayaking Adventure
- River Adventure
- Climbing Adventure
- Community Engagement
- Sequoia Adventure
Should I buy or should I borrow?
If you do not already own a frame pack, sleeping bag and/or sleeping pad and you will need one for your OA trip, you have the option of borrowing one from OA or purchasing these items yourself. You might consider buying and keeping this gear with you at Pomona if you think you will have a use for it in the future. A number of campus clubs organize wilderness outings during the academic year. Even if you're not very outdoorsy, at least two of these three gear items can prove useful outside of a wilderness context. Here are a few things to think about when deciding whether to rent or buy:
Frame packs: I love my frame pack. It has survived two around-the-world trips and is far and away my favorite and most useful piece of luggage. If you plan to do any international traveling during your time at Pomona, we highly recommend buying an internal frame backpack with a capacity of somewhere between 4,000 and 6,000 cubic inches. You'll be able to use the same pack for any wilderness trips you take while in college. Travel backpacks with zip-away straps for easier baggage checking on planes are widely available, but we don't recommend these. Their suspension systems (shoulder straps, hipbelt, etc.) are generally less extensive than those of their hiking counterparts, making travel packs less comfortable to wear for long periods. In our experience, travel packs are also less durable. Instead of a travel pack, buy a regular hiking pack and stuff it in an army duffel bag before checking it as baggage. These duffel bags can be purchased for about $10 at a military surplus store and come in a variety of sizes as well as colors other than olive green.
Sleeping bags: These can be useful anytime you need to spend a few nights somewhere and won't have a bed. They are also an alternative to carrying a set of sheets or a bedroll when hostel-hopping. A mummy cut bag certified for temperatures down to 20-30 degrees Fahrenheit is probably the most versatile choice. If you expect to be carrying it on your back very often, you should pay the premium for a lighter, more compressible down-filled bag. When not on the road or trail, remember to store these bags properly (i.e. not compressed) so that their insulation will remain effective.
Sleeping pads: These will make the floor a little softer, and you might be able to use them as sleds on a snowy day up at Mount Baldy, but beyond that ground pads don't have many applications outside of wilderness uses.
All three of these items are available from outdoor equipment retailers (e.g. REI, Sports Chalet), warehouse stores (Target, Costco, selection may be limited) and online gear discounters (Campmor.com, REI-outlet.com). Note: whether you end up buying it online or from a physical store, you should always check a backpack model for good fit before purchasing it.

Outsmart Your CancerAlternative Non-Toxic Treatments That Work (Second Edition)With CD
Written by: Tanya Harter Pierce
Reviewed by: Liz M
Download "Outsmart Your Cancer" to PDF from Google Books
The Review:You have just been diagnosed with Carcinoma. The large C. It's not someone else - it's You, and if you just sit there stunned, you will Die. - Miserably. You must do something, so you start asking around to find out your settings. You have only two:1.
Let someone else decide what is best for you and give in to chemo, surgery, radiation, and all the accompanying health horrors. Take matters into your own hands, and save yourself. If you decide to take charge of your own life, start by reading Outsmart Your Carcinoma.
It is the result of some great research by Tanya Harter Pierce. This data would take years to find for yourself. The book is complete with data on all the major alternative non-toxic carcinoma procedures available today. This is a cool book.
I am still alive today because I used one of the approaches described in Outsmart Your Carcinoma - I chose the Protocel therapy because it is backed by solid science, and it is a treatment compatible with my busy lifestyle. The book has an impressive definition of Protocel, its log, how to take it, and how-and-why it operates. Almost 18 months ago I was diagnosed with breast carcinoma (the tumor was bigger than a large, solid walnut). Hoping to ward-off surgery, I went for chemotherapy.
It was a lethal combination of three of the most deadly concoctions ever devised by humans. The side-effects are unspeakable. After 5 months of chemo, there was little change in the tumor, and radical surgery was indicated. Somehow death was not as scary as the radical surgery, radiation, and more chemo.
I refused. Two days later I read Tanya Harter Pierce's definition of Protocel, and I got my life back. If only I had read Outsmart Your Carcinoma before the chemo, I would have saved myself plenty of physical pain and heartache. Instead, thanks to Tanya's book and Protocel, I have not needed surgery and the tumor is almost gone.
I still have my energy (i am doing pilates and taking tango lessons). Outsmart Your Carcinoma tells you all you need to know to evaluate these various procedures and how to get back to health. It is a real bargain, - complete with contact data, names, and numbers. You will find your time and cash was well-spent.

Now playing that sound system as loud as it can go wouldn't be such a good idea especially if you live in a residential area. It could get you into a lot of trouble if you do play your music loud. In fact you could get yourself into trouble watching TV late at night! So what do you do? Stop listening to music and watch muted TV? Well you don't really have to. All you need to do is get yourself a pair of headphones. With these you can watch TV late at night or listen to music as loudly as you wish without disturbing anyone.
Now I am sure most of you would prefer listening to music or watching TV via speakers rather than headphones. But with the latest headphones that have hit the stores you wouldn't even notice the difference. In fact a few headphones out there are probably better than speakers. With headphones like the Bose QuietComfort 3 you would definitely not miss your speaker system. These headphones have amazing sound quality and have one of the best noise cancelling system that you will ever find. They aren't very big and they are easy to carry around since it is foldable and it comes with a neat carrying case as well. In addition to all this they are quite easily the most comfortable headphones available.
Now for those of you who watch TV late at night, well its time you got yourselves a pair of wireless TV headphones. A few TV manufacturing companies like Sony have offered their own wireless headphones along with their TV's. The Sony Wireless TV Headphones work on Infrared technology which is similar to the wireless technology used on the remote control. These headphones come with rechargeable AAA batteries. If you don't happen to have wireless headphones to watch TV then you would have to buy one separately. The best wireless headphones available would be the Sennheiser RS110 headphone. These are ideal for watching TV or listening to music of your music system!
So get yourself a good pair of headphones and enjoy listening to music without disturbing others.
