This issue occurs because a User Datagram Protocol (UDP) connection object is not created immediately after an Acknowledgement (ACK) packet is received. This behavior provides an opportunity for all the other connections that have a pending data to be sent. Additionally, when multiple connections are established at the same time, if the higher layers of some connections are not ready, a 100-millisecond delay occurs to let the higher layer be registered with the RDP-UDP layer.

If not, then the BrainPOP movie on matter changing states is for you! Tim and Moby will tell you all about the energy that state changes require, and the effect that extra energy has on atoms and molecules. You'll learn about sublimation, which occurs when a solid melts directly into a gas, and also about condensation, when gas turns into liquid. A watched pot never boils--so get away from the stove and watch this movie while you wait!

Hatch for Hunger
Working together to provide eggs to the undernourished

Fitting because in 1995 the Oregon senator was the only Republican to vote against a similar amendment. Grim-faced and on the verge of resigning his Senate seat over the issue, Hatfield cast the deciding vote to kill the amendment. "It was one of the most courageous votes I've ever seen," Senate historian Donald Ritchie told Roll Call this week.
Hatfield, who died Aug. 7 at the age of 89, didn't resign. He instead showed the independence and character that made him the class act of Oregon politics. He fused deep Baptist beliefs, a knack for retail politics and matinee-idol good looks into a political career marked by his strong pacifism and extraordinary longevity. He's best known today as a virtuoso of the Senate Appropriations Committee, which he used to steer home billions of dollars in federal projects that reshaped Oregon.
But the ways in which Hatfield changed Oregon run deeper than the federal money or shiny buildings that carry his name. He brought modernity to Oregon government and led its politics out of the backwoods and into national prominence. To do it, Hatfield combined ambition and discipline better than any Oregon politician of his time.
Hatfield was born in Dallas, Ore., in 1922, the only child of a railroad blacksmith and a teacher. His mother was both domineering and had great ambitions for her son. Hatfield could not recall any desire but to get into politics. In high school, he was an Oregon State Capitol tour guide; after hours he would slip into the governor's office, sit in the executive's chair, caress the desk and tell himself this would someday be his. While earning a political science degree at Stanford, his friend Travis Cross recalled, Hatfield took a piece of paper and plotted out his ascendancy: from state legislature to governor to the U.S. Senate to…and here he left the space blank. He moved to Salem and within 10 years, in 1958, was elected governor—at 36, the youngest in state history.
Hatfield broke the Republican political machine that had anointed candidates for decades. In its place, he built a Hatfield machine that consolidated power around him, not the party. He built it with Gerry Frank, the scion of a department-store fortune and an organizational whiz. The two men met in Salem when Hatfield (then in the Legislature) and Frank were named by The Oregonian as two of Salem's most eligible bachelors. Frank ultimately became Hatfield's closest adviser and chief of staff, and helped build the Hatfield machine with an index file of more than 100,000 personal contacts.
Hatfield transformed Oregon by leading the fight in the 1950s against the state's deep history of racial segregation. When it came to racism, Oregon was among the worst. As a Willamette University student, Hatfield helped bring Paul Robeson and Marian Anderson to campus; Hatfield recalled driving the two of them back to Portland, humiliated for his state, because Salem's hotels had a "no coloreds" policy. As a state legislator, Hatfield led the fight to ban racial housing discrimination in Oregon.
Hatfield's turbocharged rise in politics (the state House, state Senate, secretary of state and two terms as governor) was fueled by his oratorical skills and a singular charisma that was at once aloof and magnetic. Part of Hatfield's success was that he looked the part: strikingly handsome, fashionable and publicly formal. Fellow Republican and friend Norma Paulus once said that she had never seen Hatfield "outside of a tie." Hatfield, in the words of Daily Astorian editor Steve Forrester "was like a beautiful woman. You assumed he wasn't smart. But he was. Very." Hatfield, for many years, hung a large oil portrait of himself in his Georgetown bedroom.
His manners and dandyism misdirected attention from his inside skills. You wanted him on your side in a political knife fight. Says Tom Imeson, who worked for Hatfield for many years: "He was a very principled person. But he could be very tough from a political perspective."
Hatfield behind closed doors brought cabinet secretaries to heel with his steely glare and rumbling voice. When the popular Gov. Tom McCall noisily threatened to run against Hatfield in 1972, the senator scared him away by telling him, "Come into the race if you want to. But I want to say one thing. I'll shred you."
In 1990, in his last campaign, Hatfield faced Democrat Harry Lonsdale, who used his personal fortune to attack Hatfield and take a momentary lead in the polls. Hatfield launched the first negative campaign ads of his career and within a few weeks turned Lonsdale into pulp.
No other Oregon politician did more to promote peace. Hatfield served in the Navy during World War II and visited Hiroshima soon after the U.S. dropped the atomic bomb on the city—an event that had a profound effect on Hatfield's view of war. He opposed the Vietnam War long before public opinion turned against it. In 1965, he was the lone vote against a National Governors Association resolution requested by President Lyndon Johnson in support of the war.

You're right about that, Edith. Mercury is a serious pollutant.
The Michigan Department of Environmental Quality is partnering with the Environmental Quality Co. of Wayne for the Great Lakes Restoration Initiative Mercury Collection Project. This is an on-going effort to collect and properly recycle mercury.
The project's objective is to promote a long-term solution for easily collecting and recycling of mercury. The program is free to anyone in Michigan, businesses and residents.
Here's how it works:
Upon request, the company will send a free collection bucket with a shipping box to your door via common carrier. Each bucket will contain return instructions. Once the bucket is filled with the mercury containing device(s), apply the return label (provided with your bucket), securely tape the box and place it where the designated shipper normally picks up your packages.
The company will facilitate the recycling of the mercury.
Most mercury items can be returned through this mail-back program. Some examples of eligible mercury containing devices include: thermometers, thermostats, gauges with silver-colored liquid inside, dental amalgam and hydrometers.
You can either call the company at 734-547-2517 or e-mail them at firstname.lastname@example.com to order a free collection container and instruction kit. The program ends Sept. 30.

Family Play Programs
Thinkfun Forums
Featured Family
Replacement Pieces
By Sarah Hill, mom of 3 and blogger at Raising Redheads
Usually, when our family plays games, our youngest child Gemma takes a relatively passive role, scooping up whatever discarded tiles/cards/miscellanea we aren't using. At two and a half, that's all we could really expect from her. Or so I thought.
A few months ago, as we sat around the table playing Zingo, I tuned into Gemma's little voice shouting, "Dog!" or "Panda!" or "Stinky Foot!" (It's actually just a foot, but I suppose in our family, every foot is a stinky foot) She wasn't just parroting what Ainsleigh (age 8) and Donovan (age 5) were saying – she was recognizing the tiles! So for the next round, we gave her a card after I went through all 9 objects and verified that, yes, she knew them all.
Then we turned her loose. As proud as I was that Gemma was actually playing with us, I was even prouder of the other two kids. See, they love seeing Gemma succeed even more than winning themselves (well, most of the time). They would pause before claiming a tile in case Gemma had it. Not always, but often. And then all clap and squeal right along with her as she filled her card. A part of me wonders if we're setting Gemma up for disappointment later on in life when she realizes the world does not, in fact, revolve around her. But we'll worry about that when we get there, I guess.
Gemma went to bed that night positively giddy. The encouragement from the other kids made my heart swell with love for these little people of mine. I know they won't always defer to her, but it was pretty wonderful to witness. It's important for us to encourage each other as we're learning new things. The challenges will come all too soon. For now, it's Family Night and Zingo.
We have since added several more ThinkFun games to our evening repertoire (because after a hundred rounds of Zingo, you need something to mix it up!) and two of Gemma's current favorites are "Snack Attack" and "Bug Trails." Both require a little more assistance on our part, but since Gemma is now only 3, it's understandable. My goal is to set her up to be a game master, and I think we're well on our way. Thanks, ThinkFun, for making Family Night even better!

By KAREN BASSOSports reporter
At the conclusion of each high school baseball season, the annual state all-star game marks the passing of a year of baseball excitment. Each year, all-star teams are announced which comprise of seniors from each high school division. This year, two Carbon seniors were selected to participate on the class 3A south team and competed May 24 in Ogden at the annual game.
The Dino representatives included Blake Wilde and Zac Cloward, two Carbon players that will be greatly missed next season.
The Dino two-some proved this season just how talented they are, but it was now time for the star athletes to shine before a crowd of state baseball enthusiasts.
The game which pitted the north and south 3A teams against one another proved to be a game of determination and talent. In fact, both teams came with only one thing in mind, and that was to win.
The teams only managed a pair of hits each through eight innings. It was the bottom of the ninth inning in which the North team broke through with a single to left field which pushed the team one run ahead of the South.
The ninth inning turned out to be unsuccessful for the South who failed to score a run, leading to a 3A North victory, 1-0.
Although the team in which the Dino players represented did not walk away with the win, Wilde did manage to step up for the team in the top of the eighth inning. Wilde hit a single in the inning which was about the offensive highlights of the game for the South team.
The all-star game is one in which has become a tradition in high school baseball. In fact, this season marked the 58th year in which the show down has been held.
To be added to the roster of players is an honor for high school seniors. In fact, several major league players have competed in the event proving that the annual game attracts not only baseball enthusiasts, but also major league talent scouts.
For Wilde and Cloward, the all-star game served as a final high school game for the Dino two-some. However each will find that having a place to play will not be hard for two talented players who have given their all each and every game they have played at Carbon High.

Either by coincidence or design, tonight's foreign policy debate between presidential candidates Barack Obama and Mitt Romney falls on the 50th anniversary of a Monday night when President John F. Kennedy warned the nation and the world of a nuclear threat from Soviet missiles stationed on the island nation of Cuba. It was on October 22, 1962 that Kennedy delivered the nationally televised address that officially put the United States and the Soviet Union on the brink of nuclear war.
The secretly installed missiles, the president said that night, threatened the safety and security of not only the United States, but other nations in the Americas and throughout Latin America as well.
Each of these missiles, in short, is capable of striking Washington, D. C., the Panama Canal, Cape Canaveral, Mexico City, or any other city in the southeastern part of the United States, in Central America, or in the Caribbean area.
Additional sites not yet completed appear to be designed for intermediate range ballistic missiles — capable of traveling more than twice as far — and thus capable of striking most of the major cities in the Western Hemisphere, ranging as far north as Hudson Bay, Canada, and as far south as Lima, Peru.
Kennedy announced that night that a U.S. naval blockade of Cuba was already under way. Any Soviet ship bound for Cuba with offensive weapons would be turned back, he declared. He did not describe it as a blockade, however, choosing deftly to label the action a "quarantine." It was, in fact, a distinction without a difference, but it sounded less belligerent. A blockade is universally recognized as an act of war. A quarantine sounds like a public health measure. Kennedy said he would not "at this time" deny "the necessities of life as the Soviets attempted to do in their Berlin blockade of 1948." At the same time, he claimed the right to do so if events warranted it. "This quarantine will be extended, if needed, to other types of cargo and carriers."

This was encouraging: Jenrry Mejia last night: 5 IP, 4 H, 0 R, 0 ER, 2 BB, 4 K, 8 groundous/1 fly out.
This was even more encouraging: of his 95 pitches, 21 were curveballs according to Brooksbaseball's classifications. In 2010, he threw the pitch 10% of the time. If he's going to start, he needs to throw his breaking ball. And keep throwing it. He induced a few strikeouts with the pitch. It acts like a hard curveball from 78-82 mph, with an average of 80 mph, with an average of 8 inches of vertical break. On the SNY broadcast, Ron Darling referred Mejia throwing the offering with a "slider grip." Whatever it's called, Mejia needs to throw the pitch more to keep batters off his fastball.

For the last several years, the biggest challenge facing the General Assembly and Governor Beshear has been keeping the state on track as it weathers the toughest worldwide recession in more than 70 years.
By the time you are reading this, a week will have passed since the monster tornadoes targeted many of our communities. I want to tell the victims that you are not alone; Kentucky stands with you. The Red Cross has been overwhelmed with Kentuckians' generosity, so much so, that they are now asking for cash donations instead of material items.
It is mistakenly accepted that self-care is selfish, if a person doesn't take care of his or her own needs, eventually the result is burnout. This same person will resent others because they failed to sacrifice as they have. They have a tendency to lose themselves in service in the process of martyrdom and then get upset if others are not martyrs.
Perhaps this is generationally passed down from the environment in which they were raised. Role models play an in important part in forming who a person becomes.
Oh, to be loved as Dennis Williams is loved!
A week or so ago on a Sunday afternoon, two women I don't know knocked on my door.
They said they knew me, or at least knew me through my writing and somehow thought I could help them find their friend Dennis.
They knew enough about me to deduce that I owned my own home and searched the county property appraiser's website to find my address so they could come and see me in person because they were that desperate to find their friend who was missing.
The tornadoes that hit Kentucky were very severe, with at least 11 funnel clouds confirmed to have touched down in the Bluegrass State by the National Weather Service, blowing at wind speeds up to 125 miles per hour.
As it normally does during the first full week of March in even-numbered years, the Kentucky House of Representatives will vote on its proposed budget this week to run state government.
Another week goes by in a whirl of legislative meetings, visits from hometown folks and organized groups such as 4-H and the 874K Coalition. Even though the House has yet to act on the budget proposal, senators continue to educate ourselves and monitor the budget meetings in the House. In addition, senators continue to meet in small groups to review the different budget needs of the various agencies. We expect to receive the House proposal next week.
After a pause for President's Day, the Legislature moved into the second half of the 2012 General Assembly Session. I had visits from groups representing adult day health care providers and developmental disabilities. Many Boy Scout troops came to Frankfort for the annual Boy Scout Day at the Capitol. It was a pleasure to see these civic-minded boys and young men and their dedicated troop leaders and parents.
In each legislative session, the Kentucky House of Representatives spends a considerable amount of time on those who comprise our youngest generation, looking for ways to help them at home and in the classroom.
Last week was a high-water mark in both of those areas. On Wednesday, for example, the House of Representatives put its unanimous support behind legislation that would make it illegal to intentionally view child pornography.
It's not every day that I get "three free sins" in the mail, but today I did.
Unfortunately, I used them up even before I got the envelope opened.
I'm talking about Bible teacher, author and Christian radio personality Steve Brown's new book, "Three Free Sins," subtitled, "God's Not Mad at You."
The title comes from Steve's former call-in radio program where he gave callers three free sins - six if they called on a cell phone.

CANTON An Ogdensburg resident who was convicted of stabbing another man in a bar bathroom more than a dozen years ago has been indicted on weapons charges.
A St. Lawrence County grand jury on Friday returned five counts against Vincent A. Pratt, 49, of 715 Lake St., after police reported finding several guns in his home during execution of a search warrant four months ago. As a convicted felon, Mr. Pratt is not allowed to possess firearms.
In a separate case, the grand jury also indicted a Ticonderoga man, Timothy D. McDougal, 28, on drug charges following an August traffic stop in the town of Hammond.
In April 2000, Mr. Pratt was found guilty of second-degree assault for stabbing Ogdensburg resident Francis Brabant twice in the chest during a brief encounter the previous year in a bathroom at Kozys Tavern on New York Avenue in Ogdensburg. He was sentenced to 300 days in jail and up to $1,611 restitution to reimburse the county, which paid Mr. Brabants medical bills under Medicaid.
On Oct. 3, Ogdensburg police and the St. Lawrence County Sheriffs Department Drug Task Force arrested Mr. Pratt after they reportedly removed several rifles, shotguns, a muzzle loader and a sawed-off .410 caliber shotgun with a modified barrel and stock from his home.
The grand jury indicted Mr. Pratt on two counts of third-degree criminal possession of a weapon, a class E felony, and three counts of fourth-degree criminal possession of a weapon, a class A misdemeanor.
News reports from October indicated that Mr. Pratt initially was charged with unlicensed growing of marijuana after police said they found a pot plant at the home. Fridays indictment made no reference to any such charges.
Mr. Pratt was arraigned in Ogdensburg City Court in October following his arrest, and committed to the St. Lawrence County jail, Canton, in lieu of $5,000 bail. Jail officials confirmed that he was not at the facility as of Friday afternoon.
In the other case handed up Friday, jurors indicted Mr. McDougal on one count of second-degree criminal possession of marijuana after Border Patrol agents said they found nearly 10 pounds of pot following an Aug. 30 traffic stop on Route 37 in Hammond.
Mr. McDougal, of 288 Burgoyne Road, Ticonderoga, was arrested along with another occupant of the vehicle, Tiffany S. Johnson, 23, Hogansburg. Ms. Johnson was mentioned in Fridays indictment but not indicted, and information on the status of her case was not immediately available.

In 2013, CNN aired inaccurate statements about the science in 30 percent of its climate-change-related segments. Such misleading statements usually took place during debates about established science. Guests, including politicians and commentators, also made inaccurate statements about climate science that often went unchallenged. Read More

By KELLEY SHINERSun Advocate reporter
During the May 1 meeting of the Price River Water Improvement board, discussion on impact fees were back on the agenda.
The fee is charged to PRWID customers who are involved in new construction projects that will impact the water and sewer process.
Established property owners who wish to rebuild or add on to existing structures will not be affected.
The reason for the fee is to help subsidize the cost of expansion due to the impact of growth and demand on our sewer and drinking water system.
The fees were originally charged to county residents only. The ordinance was later updated to include sewer impact fees for city and county residents.
A request was made to raise the fees from $400 to $700.
One reason for the proposed increase is an attempt to balance the debt owed to PRWID for providing past funding for water and sewer projects.
Impact fees are appropriated for specific purposes and must follow all ordinance guidelines, noted PRWID officials.
The repayment to PRWID falls under the guidelines.
PRWID board member Karl Houskeeper pointed out that balancing the funds is going to be a difficult task.
"We have already burdened the public with other areas that we were forced to raise in the past," said Houskeeper. "How hard are we going to make it on the people?"
The impact fee issue will be reviewed by the PRWID board members and discussed in more detail in the future.
At the May 1 meeting, questions were raised regarding personal use of PRWID equipment.
Concerns were voiced by an employee who was confused about the district's policies pertaining to the matter. He said he had witnessed fellow employees using the PRWID equipment for personal projects.
The employee questioned the impact of the personal use would have on district expenses since PRWID has been working on cutting budget costs.
The board indicated that some use of PRWID equipment was permitted. But personal use of heavy equipment is prohibited.
The board offered a copy of the district's current policies and the members said they would look into the situation and make the proper reprimands if necessary.

From Enterprise to Dothan, churches remembered a legacy
"A lot of people show up to commemorate the legacy of king, listen to some great preachers, and some great singing," explained Jemmie Watford, president of IMALC.
North Highland Baptist Church held their celebratory mass at 7pm while Pleasant Shade Missionary Baptist Church rejoiced a bit earlier. Monday is Martin Luther King day—a time to relive what he fought for: freedom, courage, and determination.
Watford said," We're still growing. All of us are still becoming and we're looking to embrace the greatest of his legacy which is love amongst all people."
At Pleasant Shade, Reverend Charles Kelley was the key note speaker. He reminisced how King fought for each American, no matter the gender or race. He announced a quote from MLK's insight, reading "injustice anywhere is a threat to justice everywhere."
Members of each church continued to pray and Watford said the ceremonies included looking to the future.
"The fact that we can entrust one another with our future is a great part of that," he expressed.
North Highland's Youth choir used tonight's rally as a rehearsal for the greater celebration Monday Morning, where the church hosts their annual MLK Memorial March.
"Our youth choir is kind of warming up for tomorrow's activities but they bless us tonight with songs," Watford said.
The march is open to the public and it is all to support the legacy of Martin Luther King, Jr.

The nations stagnant economy has affected several facets of daily life, including the pet population.
Nonprofit organization Spay/Neuter/ Now, which has been working to curb the pet population by providing low-cost spaying and neutering to cats since 1994, has extended its services to dogs.
The group held its first clinic Sunday at the St. Lawrence Valley Society of Prevention to Cruelty of Animals, 6178 Route 68.
Ive been up since 3 a.m. making sure everything was ready, Veterinarian and SNN General Manager Dr. Kevin T. Mace said Sunday. Mr. Mace prepped 13 dogs and 20 cats.
The decision to add dogs was an easy one, according to Mr. Mace. Average costs range from $250 to $400 for pediatric canine spay, he said.
Research shows low-income clients cannot afford that and the result is that they do not spay their dogs, Mr. Mace said. Low-income clients are not taking their animals to veterinarians for basic care or even vaccinations, let alone spaying and neutering.
Of 1,921 cats sterilized in the SNN mobile clinic from 2011 to 2012, 90 percent required rabies vaccinations and over 96 percent required distemper vaccinations, Mr. Mace said. Less than 5 percent of this population had any regular veterinary care.
By partnering with local shelters, SNN provides low-cost spaying and neutering services. Dog owners who brought their dogs to the shelter Sunday paid $50 and received a $10 discount from the SPCA.
In 2012, SNN performed 1,300 sterilization surgeries to cats. The organization has done over 13,000 such procedures since its founding. The long-standing voucher program, which provided financial aid by reducing the overall price at participating veterinary clinics began in 1994, was recently ended.
SNN founder Beatrice D. Bea Schemerhorn said spaying and neutering reduces the number of stray animals.
It is estimated that for every human being, there are 13 dogs and 45 cats born, she said. Our communities cant support that kind of growth.
The organization can be contacted at 324-5969 or firstname.lastname@example.com.

Volleyball Claims MVC Tournament Championship, 3-0 over Wichita State
SPRINGFIELD, Mo - The No. 21 Creighton volleyball team continued its magical run in 2012 as the Jays claimed their first MVC Tournament Title with a 3-0 win over Wichita State on Saturday, Nov. 24.
Creighton defeated Wichita State (25-18, 25-20 and 25-23) to move to 28-3 on the season with its 16th straight win. Following the loss the Shockers fell to 22-9 overall.
The victory gives the Jays their first automatic berth in the NCAA Tournament. It is the second time in Creighton history that the Bluejays have earned a trip to the NCAAs, following an at-large berth in 2010. Creighton also extended its school-record for wins to 28 and its school-record win streak to 16 in a row.
Tied 5-5 early in the opening set, Creighton grabbed control with a 4-0 run. A Wichita State service error got the Jays rolling, then sophomore Michelle Sicner and Heather Thorson posted Creighton's first block of the match two make it 7-5. Sophomore Kelli Browning followed with back-to-back kills in the middle to extend the lead to 9-5. Wichita State closed within a point at 17-16 drawing a timeout from Creighton head coach Kirsten Bernthal Booth. The Jays responded with three straight points on consecutive kills by freshman Melanie Jereb and a block by Jereb and Browning to go back out in front by four at 20-16. Creighton did not relinquish the lead the rest of the way as the Jays collected seven blocks in the set, holding the Shockers to a .054 hitting percentage.
"During the timeout, I reminded the team that we got ahead by being the aggressor," said Booth.
Wichita State came out strong to open the second set, claiming a 4-1 lead, but the Bluejays regrouped to score five of the next seven points and knot the set at 6-6. Tied 11-11 moments later, Creighton sprinted into the media timeout with four straight points. This time it was sophomore Leah McNary that got things started for the Jays with her sixth kill of the match. Jereb and Thorson teamed for Creighton's ninth block of the match to push it to 13-11. The cumulative effect of the Jays' block set in over the next two points as the Shockers made attacking errors trying to avoid the block. After the Shockers pulled even at 19-19, Creighton asserted its dominance once more. Creighton reclaimed the lead on a Shocker error, then senior Megan Bober delivered the Jays' first ace of the match to push it to 21-19. Following a service error by Bober, the Jays forced back-to-back attack error and closed the frame on an ace by sophomore Katie Neisler and a kill by Thorson.
With their backs to the wall, Wichita State charged out to a 7-2 lead to begin the third set to force a timeout by Booth. The Jays calmly began to chip away at the deficit behind a kill by McNary and an attack error by the Shockers. Unfortunately the Shockers were able to maintain separation of at least three points and finally extended their lead to as much as seven at 19-12. Down 21-15 just a few moments later, McNary ignited a 10-2 run that would result in a Bluejay celebration. The run began with eight straight Creighton points, lifting the Jays to their first lead of the set 23-22. McNary, Jereb, Browning and Sicner each contributed kills to go with two Bluejay blocks and two Shocker hitting errors during the run. After Wichita State's Ashlyn Driskill tied the set at 23-23, Jereb posted her 10th kill of the match to give Creighton a match point at 24-23. Fittingly senior Brooke Boggs, a Missouri native, ended the match in dramatic fashion with her first ace of the night.
McNary led the Jays with 11 kills and a stellar .416 hitting percentage on the night (11K, 1E, 30A). Jereb was right behind her with 10 kills. Wichita State got nine kills from Driskill.
Following the match, Bober was named the MVC Tournament MVP. She finished the match with 26 assists, 10 digs and eight kills to record her 22nd double-double. McNary and Jereb joined Bober as Creighton representative on the All-Tournament Team.
Creighton will now wait to see where the NCAA committee places the Bluejays. Creighton will be hosting a viewing party at 3 p.m. at The Old Mattress Factory, with the public and media invited to attend.

BUFFALO, N.Y. (AP) - Matt Frattin scored his second goal of the game with 1.5 seconds left in overtime, lifting the Toronto Maple Leafs to a 4-3 win over the Buffalo Sabres on Tuesday night.
Frattin skated in from the left circle and wristed a shot over the shoulder of Sabres goalie Ryan Miller. MIller said he felt like he let his team down. "Tonight just didn't have it for whatever reason. It was definitely the kind of game I needed to show up for and be better. The guys got me back into it and I tried to hang tight with it and then I just had, another letdown. I let them down."
Jay McClement and Cody Franson also scored for Toronto, which snapped a two-game skid. James Reimer made 29 saves for the Maple Leafs. Toronto defenseman Dion Phaneuf said "We know that it's a tough building to play in and we haven't had a lot of success here, but it feels good to get the win and now we move forward."
Jason Pominville, Andrej Sekera and Mikhail Grigorenko scored for Buffalo, which lost its fourth straight. Miller stopped 20 shots.
Grigorenko, the Sabres' first-round choice in the 2012 draft, tied it 3-all at 7:10 of the third period with a deftly placed backhander from the slot. He made amends for being on the ice for the first three Toronto goals. Grigorenko's teammates were excited for him. Defenseman Mike Weber said "I couldn't be happier for the kid. He's got a lot of great potential and, I mean, he's 18 years old, so I think it's fair to say we can jump off his back a little bit and let him develop and grow and is he going to be a special player for a lot of years for us." Captain Jason Pominville added "I think everyone is excited for him, obviously a big goal that tied the game up. He was able to get us that point and it was nice to see him get rewarded and he obviously got the fans going and got the boys going. He worked hard, he deserves to be here and it was nice to see him get rewarded."
The Sabres will try to snap their four game losing streak Thursday night at Boston.

Don't make anyone a priority when you are only an option.
I would love to know why my weight goes down on Monday after I've down the Sunday weigh in.
This is it. The darkest day. The blackest hour. Chin up, shoulders back. Let's see what we're made of, you and I.

Do you eat out Saturday? If so you might be retaining water due to high salt content
Nope. I eat exactly the same and exercise. I think my body is just messing with me.
Edie, Are you drinking lots of water?
[This message edited by jo2love at 7:08 PM, March 27th (Wednesday)]
...and yet, I can't stop myself from stepping on that damn scale each morning.
Bad NIK. Bad bad NIK.
But knowing that doesnt keep my hand out of the candy jar.
But knowing that doesnt keep my hand out of the candy jar.
Same problem here. I have yet to find something that sticks. The only reason I lost weight before is because I stopped eating. Maybe I just need to embrace myself at this size... ? Idk.
Inner peace begins the moment you choose not to allow another person or event to control your emotions.
@ Jo. No, not nearly enough water - maybe I am retaining fluid to compensate.
Sunday weigh-in: the same, but that is good because have been eating fantastic hotel breakfasts for most if the week, so am quite relieved not to see an increase of the 7 or 8 pounds I was expecting. This helped by Saturday's fast. I must say I am finding the 5:2 fasting diet really good. Something very 'satisfying' about fasting: the mind seems to sharpen up somehow, and also, without seeming too priggish, (ok, quite priggish) hunger is ...well...empathetic. Ok, said that, know its kind of a bit privileged western BUT ....I mean it! You feel things more keenly.
Also, have taken up the Tabata training (very short intense interval training) Am really enjoying it and highly recommend it.
The extensive health benefits of both the fasting regime and Tabata seem very convincing. Can say more if anyone interested, (or both are easily googled.)
[This message edited by Edie at 4:28 PM, March 31st (Sunday)]
Keep moving forward everyone, hopefully spring weather will get us all out and moving soon.
And yes, don't do the daily weigh in! Life shouldn't be about stepping on a scale daily, once a week will do just fine.
Save yourself. I've taken off my cape, and the only thing the S on my chest stands for is SURVIVNG this.
I finally did my measurements and am happy to report I am down a total of 19.5 inches in various parts since 9/2. The biggest losses were in my waist (-6 ), hips (-4.5 ) and arms (-6 ). The girls stayed the same.
So, even though my weight loss has only been averaging -1.3 to -1.5 pounds per week, my shape is changing.
I'm also down 3 sizes!
Woo Hoo!

GRAND RAPIDS (WZZM) -- Employers across West Michigan are finally sending out w-2's this week and many people are anxious to file income tax returns.
This year there are so many changes in the tax code. It proves to be not just confusing, but it will likely delay and diminish the amount of money people get from tax refunds.
More than 80 accounting and finance students from colleges across West Michigan are on the job though. They are working with the Volunteer Income Tax Assistance (VITA) Program this year to make sure lower income clients, seniors and the disabled get every dollar back that they are eligible for, and it's all free of charge.
"They can't afford to pay 100 or 200 dollars to get their taxes done. There was a period of time when people weren't filing or getting the returns that they were entitled to, said Karen Tolan, Associate Director for Community Action Division of ACSET
Judy Knapp, an accounting faculty member for Davenport University, runs the western collegiate partnership VITA program.
She said, "We are going to see people who are going to have delays in refunds and that is not because of your preparers. It is because of the IRS and really goes back to Congress with the fiscal cliff looming so late it was hard for planning."
She says because of that fiscal cliff mess, the IRS won't even begin processing the returns until January 30th. Even then, certain forms may not be ready. Tax preparers will hold those returns until the end of the month and then e-file them.
People will see some changes with city and state taxes as well. For example, Michigan lawmakers have reduced the earned income tax credit and the homestead property tax credit. Tax preparers are expecting to hear a lot of questions about all of this.
Visit the website for the West Michigan Collegiate Partnership Volunteer Income Tax Assistance Program for details.

Although Amazon is mostly known as an online retailing Co., they have made it clear that they are looking to get into the device business and in a big way. It looks as if their upcoming Android tablet will be released at some point toward the end of the summer. The online retail company is looking to sell more than 4 million units in total. Estimates of stated that the company is looking to sell a total of 700,000 to 800,000 units per month, which would make it one of the largest tablet releases in the history of the industry. The company also said that a hope that its products would be able to peek during the Christmas season, which is when technology devices typically sell the best.
The devices, which are currently code-named Coyote, which references the dual core version of their upcoming release, and the Hollywood, which references the quad core version of their upcoming release will be released at some point this year. Some have stated that the tablets are already in the manufacturing process, and that the company is looking for a release to come toward the end of summer.
Some of the companies that Amazon is rumored to be working with through the production of these tablets include Texas Instruments among other manufacturing companies that will help them to get a timely release for the upcoming tablet that is expected to compete directly with the iPad. Along with this, Amazon will be launching a streaming movie service that will allow users to stream movie straight to their Amazon tablet, which should make the tablet all that much more popular with users.

Kawasaki disease is an illness that involves the skin, mouth, and lymph nodes, and most often affects kids under age 5. The cause is unknown, but if the symptoms are recognized early, kids with Kawasaki disease can fully recover within a few days. Untreated, it can lead to serious complications that can affect the heart.
Kawasaki disease occurs in 19 out of every 100,000 kids in the United States. It is most common among children of Japanese and Korean descent, but can affect all ethnic groups.
Kawasaki disease can't be prevented, but usually has telltale symptoms and signs that appear in phases.
The first phase, which can last for up to 2 weeks, usually involves a persistent fever higher than 104ºF (39ºC) and lasts for at least 5 days.
Other symptoms that typically develop include:
During the second phase, which usually begins within 2 weeks of when the fever started, the skin on the hands and feet may begin to peel in large pieces. The child also may experience joint pain, diarrhea, vomiting, or abdominal pain. If your child shows any of these symptoms, call your doctor.
Doctors can manage the symptoms of Kawasaki disease if they catch it early. Symptoms often disappear within just 2 days of the start of treatment. If Kawasaki disease is treated within 10 days of the onset of symptoms, heart problems usually do not develop.
Cases that go untreated can lead to more serious complications, such as vasculitis, an inflammation of the blood vessels. This can be particularly dangerous because it can affect the coronary arteries, which supply blood to the heart.
In addition to the coronary arteries, the heart muscle, lining, valves, and the outer membrane that surrounds the heart can become inflamed. Arrhythmias (changes in the normal pattern of the heartbeat) or abnormal functioning of some heart valves also can occur.
No single test can detect Kawasaki disease, so doctors usually diagnose it by evaluating the symptoms and ruling out other conditions.
Most kids diagnosed with Kawasaki disease will have a fever lasting 5 or more days and at least four of these symptoms:
If Kawasaki disease is suspected, the doctor may order tests to monitor heart function (such as an echocardiogram) and might take blood and urine samples to rule out other conditions, such as scarlet fever, measles, Rocky Mountain spotted fever, juvenile rheumatoid arthritis, or an allergic drug reaction.
Treatment should begin as soon as possible, ideally within 10 days of when the fever begins. Usually, a child is treated with intravenous doses of gamma globulin (purified antibodies), an ingredient of blood that helps the body fight infection. The child also might be given a high dose of aspirin to reduce the risk of heart problems.
