Let's face it: All other things being equal, employers would rather recruit local applicants than out-of-towners. It's more convenient to schedule interviews, and there are no hassles or cost concerns associated with relocation. But according to Monster data, about half of all job seekers are willing to move for the right job. If you are planning to move or are just open to the idea of relocation, follow these tips to get your resume noticed. Add All Target Locations List all potential locations in the Monster Resume Builder's Where Would You Like to Work? fields (in the Resume Settings section). In the same section, answer "yes" to the "Are you willing to relocate?" question. When employers search resumes, they have the option to include job seekers who both reside in or are willing to work in the selected locations, so be sure your name makes their hit list. Mention Relocation at the Top of Your Resume Use the Resume Builder's Summary field to specify your relocation availability. If you're targeting a specific area, a statement such as "Searching for a position in the Dallas area" gets the point across. If you're more flexible, include a line such as "Available to relocate nationwide" or "Open to relocation to the Northeast." If you have firm plans to move, you can say "Relocating to Chicago in March 2013." Elaborate in Your Cover Letter Your cover letter is the perfect place to explain your situation. Here are a few ways to word your relocation preferences:
Be Available for Interviews If you're targeting a specific area, plan to be available in the location for a week or so to attend face-to-face interviews. Your cover letter can mention that you will be available for interviews in the location for a certain period of time. You may also suggest an initial phone interview, and then arrange to meet in person if there is mutual interest. Consider Offering to Pay Relocation Expenses Some professionals with desirable credentials are aggressively recruited, and some employers are more than willing to pay for relocation, offer spousal relocation assistance and even help find a new house in the new location. These professionals can usually negotiate an attractive relocation package. Other candidates face a more competitive job search, going up against local job seekers who may have comparable qualifications. If so, consider that you may open more doors for yourself if you are willing to pay relocation costs. Use this as a selling point in your cover letter with a line such as, "Please note that I am very interested in your opportunity and am willing to incur all relocation expenses" or "I will be relocating to Jacksonville in May at my own expense." Don't Use Someone Else's Address Some folks try to get an edge in a long-distance job search by fudging the address. This can cause problems; if your current job is located in one city and your address is far away, the hiring manager will probably be confused or concerned that your address is misleading. More problems may ensue if you're called for an interview and you're unable to get there right away. Then there's the uncomfortable discussion that you don't actually live in town. It's better to be honest about where you're living and use the above resume and cover letter strategies to show you're ready to pack your bags for the right opportunity.Articles in This Feature:

Once upon a time, we thought about pencils, backpacks, and notebooks come August, but now our minds have turned to far a more stylish subject: fall fashion must-haves! The thought of wearing that woolly Celine coat or Proenza Schouler side-zip leather jacket makes us shiver with bittersweet excitement, since the reality is we have a few months left until the weather--and our savings accounts--cooperate. That doesn't mean we can't pregame with the upcoming season's best accessories, like a standout ankle boot or statement-making bag. We picked out a few drool-worthy designer items that reference fall's biggest trends. These investment pieces are surely a splurge, but hey, a girl can dream, right?1. Yves Saint Laurent Lily Ring ($515, available in September)
Floral motifs come around every season, but the big news with this trend for fall is Yves Saint Laurent's organic, gilded lily shape. Exotic and sultry, it's the only jewelry you'll need when accessorizing a deep-v, double-breasted velvet blazer and wide-leg trousers.
2. Derek Lam ID Necklace ($2235, 212.299.1338)
Two of fall's hottest jewelry trends (chokers and silver metal) come together in Derek Lam's necklace. The designer teamed up with jeweler Thomas Bliven to create this chain-link ID choker with uptown punk attitude.
3. Givenchy Pearl & Jet Strass Magnetic Tusk Earring ($535)
Tribal-inspired jewelry was everywhere this season, and Givenchy's tough-as-nails version exudes sophisticated safari. Pull your hair back into a messy chignon for the crystal-encrusted tusk to stand out. You don't even need pierced ears for this bauble; it stays in place with a magnet!
4. Emilio Pucci Wool-Felt Fedora ($390)
From the furry Dr. Seuss-like toppers at Marc Jacobs to the military-style headpieces at Prabal Gurung, hats made a big statement this season. Our styling tip? Wear Emilio Pucci's hunter green fedora with a linen blazer and high-waisted wide-leg jeans to channel a '70s vibe a la Jane Birkin.
5. Burberry Leather-Trimmed Suede Bowling Bag ($1995)
Fall's new bag? The bowler! These chic carriers have a structured shape that's a little more serious and ladylike for the season than summer's slouchy purses. Burberry's suede rendition comes in a mix of rich rust and brown hues, which matches an autumnal color palette but also works with summer's off-whites and oxford blues for a polished work ensemble.
6. Gucci Fall Runway GG3206 Sunglasses ($265, 212.717.2619) in Black
Allow us to introduce you to fall's new sunglasses silhouette: round and vintage-inspired, like a turn-of-the-century chemist. Gucci's circular black frames are sleek, utterly charming, and add a cool factor to any outfit.
7. 3.1 Phillip Lim Delia Chelsea Boots ($625, 212.334.1160) in Yellow Gold
When it's time to swap out your gladiator sandals for cozier footwear, you'll want a great pair of boots, like this pointy-toe style from 3.1 Phillip Lim. Wear them now with a silk tank and lace-trimmed shorts, then add a chunky knit sweater and opaque tights come fall.
8. Tory Burch Afton Silk Print Scarf ($225, 310.248.2612) in Pretty Violet Multi
No fall wish list would be complete with a scarf! Toss on Tory Burch's vibrant floral scarf with a printed dress, blazer, and boots for a stylish on-the-go look.--Tiffany Tse

Wildlife biologists were able to win the first battle to get rid of the 30,000 crows that have made their home in Watertown this season.
Biologists with Loomacres Wildlife Management, Warnerville, were able to chase the majority of the roost out of the city by conducting several nights of crow hazing last week, city officials said in a statement released Monday. They disrupted the roosting patterns, city officials said.
But their job is not yet finished.
As predicted, some crows will return to the city nightly. To combat that, biologists will continue to conduct crow dispersal activities.
The trained Loomacres team has scheduled crow hazing activities tonight and Wednesday night. Control methods will be employed from dusk until dawn.
The biologists will use special remote-controlled aircraft, play distress calls, fire low-yield pyrotechnics (screamers and bangers) and use hand-held lasers. They also might use high-powered air rifles as a limited lethal means if deemed appropriate by city officials.
These techniques should cause the crows to relocate to a more suitable roosting site outside the city and reduce the human health and safety risks associated with an urban crow roost, city officials said.
Residents are encouraged to continue to provide the location, estimated size and dates and times of crow flock sightings. Loomacres Wildlife Management will continue to use that information as it works to move the crow flock out of the city during the coming months.
The toll-free phone number to report crow activities in the city of Watertown is 1 (800) 243-1462. To report crow activities online, go to http://www.airportwildlife.com/crows.php.
For further information or questions, call the city managers office at 785-7730.

Lea Michele truly loved Cory Monteith.
In the August issue of Mexico's Marie Claire (via Pop Sugar), the "Glee" star opened up about her on and off-screen romance with her late boyfriend.
Lea gave the interview just one month before Monteith passed away from the deadly combination of heroin and alcohol on July 13, in Canada.
Opening up about her relationship with the actor, Lea couldn't stop gushing.
"It's more interesting having a relationship with someone you work with because we get more attention because we play boyfriend and girlfriend on the show and we are also in real life," she says.
"But he is the best person I know, he has made my life so incredible, and I am so thankful for him and not only to have him as a partner but also as a co-worker," Lea adds.
Michele also shares how Monteith always provided her with support, "It is important to have someone that supports you and encourages you, someone that makes you feel that you are unstoppable, that you can do anything in the world because you have him," she confesses.
Cory was so supportive of the 26-year-old's career, he was even on hand for Lea's shoot and interview with the mag.
Marie Claire Mexico editor in cheif, Ariadne Grant, said the actor "showed up in great spirits" -- and added that the couple was "very nice and obviously happy and in love."
Our thoughts are with Lea during this tough time.

ORCHARD PARK, N.Y. (AP) - Bills offensive coordinator Nathaniel Hackett is just 33 years old, but feels a lifetime of football experience has prepared him to turn around Buffalo's inconsistent offense.
"You're putting in a system, you're putting it together, and now, you're spending your time getting ready for the most important thing, which is working with our players," said Bills head coach Doug Marrone.
"Then, when you get in the room with the guys, that's critical. You want to see how they respond to you, so I think that process is a long deal. It's an exciting time to be able to work with them," said Hackett.
Two weeks after he was hired away from Syracuse, Hackett was officially introduced by the Bills on Thursday. The son of longtime coach Paul Hackett plans on installing a balanced, multiple-look system in Buffalo that is based upon his scheme with the Orange.
Hackett declined to discuss specifics regarding his plans for Buffalo's offense but he is looking forward to working with running back C.J. Spiller, the team's breakout star in 2012.
"Anytime you let a defense know exactly what you're gonna do, they're gonna gameplan you for that. They're gonna come after you and they're gonna know how to attack you," said Hackett.
The Bills finished 6-10 last season and scored just 344 points under former coach Chan Gailey. Doug Marrone, who worked with Hackett at Syracuse, took over for Gailey earlier this month.

HEUVELTON Revamped safety measures at a Heuvelton dam have been installed and, after test runs, will be activated Friday.
The Brookfield Renewable Energy power dam has been given a new alarm system that will sound when water is released through the dams several barriers. The upgrade may be in response to an incident in which two Heuvelton teens had to be rescued from the Oswegatchie River after water was released from the dam.
According to a news release issued by Brookfield, the new system includes a siren and flashing strobe light.
The alert system will be in operation from 6 a.m. to 9 p.m. April 1 through Oct. 31 each year.
The alarm system will be activated when one of the two rubber bladders is lowered to release water over the dam or when any of the four gates are remotely operated to release water through the dam.
Brandon A. Parmeter, 16, was one of the two teens rescued in July. He and Michael G. Bell, 17, had been fishing under the Route 812 bridge, a short distance below the dam, when they found themselves trapped by the rising waters after the rubber bladders released water.
The incident required Heuvelton Fire Department to respond to the scene to pull the boys to safety with safety rope.
Fishing was a regular ritual for the two boys, according to Mr. Parmeters mother, Laura G. But until Wednesday, Mr. Parmeter said, he hadnt been fishing in the river bed since the incident.
Mr. Parmeter, who lives on State Street with his mother and two brothers, said that on Friday and Saturday he stood behind his familys home and heard the sirens being tested.
After being told about the new system, Mrs. Parmeter said she feels more comfortable about her son fishing in the riverbed again.
The incident prompted Brookfield to re-evaluate how the water monitoring system operates, though there hadnt been a problem in more than 20 years, Brookfield Regional Supervisor John B. Gamble said at the time.
He added that the alarm system originally was supposed to sound only when the four gates were to release water.
Brookfield has since included the two bladders in that alarm system.
Brookfield, in its release issued Tuesday announcing the new alarm system, warned that conditions below the hydropower dam are dangerous due to swift currents and rapidly changing water conditions.
Fishermen and other visitors to the area should not stand in the riverbed, the statement advised. When the Alert System is activated, any person standing near the shoreline should seek higher ground immediately as the water levels in the river will rise.
During the initial report of the boys being trapped by rising waters, Mr. Gamble said there had been no alarm installed at the dam and the signs warning Danger: Vacate river bed if warning siren sounds or warning light is flashing had been posted as a precursor to the newly installed system.
The signs had been covered with tarps following the boys rescue to avoid any confusion, Mr. Gamble said.
The covers have since been removed.

Dr. Katz Did Not Sleep with Tiger WoodsThursday, December 3rd, 2009
This just in– Tiger Woods did NOT sleep with Dr. Katz! Our very own 'Bad Breath Guru' is not part of the scandal. We just wanted to clarify this since people (including Rachel Uchitel, Jaimee Grubbs, and Kalika Moquin) have been coming out of the woodwork in the past week claiming that they had an affair with Tiger Woods. We wonder if any of the women Tiger Woods had been involved with had morning breath. Maybe his wife Elin Nordegren had bad breath, causing him to stray. Maybe that's why Tiger yells "FORE!" when he's on the golf course, because he had four women. (well he did at the time of the original writing… things have obviously gotten much worse since).
Dr. Katz never has morning breath because he uses TheraBreath right before bedtime. That's the reason why he's so desirable. But guess what? He's been loyal to his wife of 34 years.

Clusters and Entrepreneurship in support of Emerging Industries Közzététel időpontja:: 07/03/2013, Utolsó frissítés: 04/09/2013
- Határidő:
- 17/10/2013.
- Hivatkozás::
New deadline, only for the 12 successful candidates of the stage one of the submission procedure:
17/10/2013 at 17:00:00 (Brussels local time) - 2nd deadline (for 2-stage procedure)
Following stage one, the 12 successful candidates are now invited to submit full proposals by Thursday 17 October 2013 outlining in detail how a 'systemic approach' shall be followed to reshape existing industrial value chains and/or to create new value chains thereby stimulating growth and employment. The objectives of the full proposal must be consistent and in accordance with the successful concept note, extending it by providing full details about the approach and its implementation.
The main objective of this call for proposals is to support regions to adapt and change their industrial structures to unlock the potential of clusters and entrepreneurship for regional economic development and for addressing societal challenges such as reducing CO2 emissions, improving resource efficiency and environmental protection. The aim is in particular to better capitalise on all forms of creativity, new technologies and the transformative power of innovation to shape new globally competitive value chains that may help to foster the development of emerging industries in Europe. By supporting the development of more fertile environments in which small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) can combine creativity with the use of new technologies and more resource efficient solutions, new business opportunities may arise that result in smarter and more sustainable growth.
The call therefore aims to stimulate activities that have the potential to radical innovations that result from such cross-sectoral collaboration and that have a systemic impact. By "systemic impact" innovations are meant that fundamentally change sectoral boundaries and help improve the overall efficiency of the eco-system by, for example, better valorising all forms of creativity and promoting resource efficiency. Such innovations have a profound impact on the way the economy is organised and resources are allocated.
It is therefore not sufficient to simply follow a project-oriented approach that demonstrates the technical feasibility of product and/or service innovations through pilot actions. Instead, a "systemic approach" is called for that strives for putting in place a favourable environment for developing and testing new business models that integrate such radical innovations under real-life conditions into existing value chains or successfully shape new ones.
The three presentations put forward during the Info Day on 20 March 2013 are available below.

Corey Perrine/Staff Photo Illustration Palmetto Ridge's Carlos Miranda, 18, is the boys cross country runner of the year. Miranda has been running since the 8th grade. In only his second race, he won competing against various middle schools in Collier County. He still holds the county record for 8th graders in the 3000 meter run. The rest is history. He's been region champion the last three years and placed 3rd and 23rd the last two years at state competition. He's signing this February to run for the University of Florida and is undecided about his major. His fastest mile is 4:13 and 5K (3.1 miles) 15:07. "Running has taught me to be humble, appreciate everything I have,"Miranda said. "Because not everyone can run at an elite level -- I appreciate the gift that I have."
Corey Perrine/Staff Photo Illustration Naples' Manny Morgan is this year's Broxson Award winner. The distinguished 5' 9" 190-pound running back helped lead his team to a semifinal finish. Individually he rushed for over 2,000 yards, was named Class 6A player of the year, made first team all-state and played in the all-star game. He's heavily considering Youngstown State studying business. "My success is because of family, they've been there since day one," Morgan said. "My dad recording all my games and having film ready the next day. And my family motivating me to get better."
Corey Perrine/Staff Photo Illustration Gulf Coast's Elise Haan, 15, is this year's girls swimmer of the year. The standout athlete defended her state title in the 100 meter backstroke. She also added runner-up in the 50 meter freestyle in 2012. Haan has been swimming since age 11 and didn't like it at first because of "the cold water." However, it's easy to say she's well past her beginnings. While colleges can't start the recruit process because of her sophomore status, she's receiving a lot of surveys and literature in the mail. She's undecided on colleges and major as of yet but hopes to make swimming a career. She's currently working toward improving to be ready for the Olympics in 2016. "What contributes to my success is just working hard," Haan said. "You can have as much talent as you want but you still have to work hard if you want to get somewhere."
Corey Perrine/Staff Photo Illustration Immokalee's Mackenro Alexander, 19, is the football defensive player of the year. The senior linebacker has been tackling his way to the top of the record books. In 2012 he posted school records for most interceptions for a touchdown and most career tackles. He's piqued the interest of several schools but is undecided as of yet as well as concentration of study. From Pop Warner league to this month's runner-up 5A state finish, he's got a bright future before the last chapter is written on his football career. "Success has taught me humbleness," Alexander said. "Adversity came from being overshadowed by other teammates. Wanting to do better helped me to get where I am today."
Corey Perrine/Staff Photo Illustration First Baptist Academy's Jonah Bueltel, 17, is this year's offensive football player of the year. The rookie quarterback took over the role after playing wide receiver/defensive back the past three years. In doing so, he helped lead his team to the Class 2A semifinal game. The first playoff birth in the school's four year history. Bueltel hopes to receive a football scholarship to Colgate, Taylor, Brown or Samford Universities studying Business. "The biggest lesson learned is how to lead -- you're the one in charge," Bueltel said. "You just know you gotta go out there and perform because it's more on you because you're getting the ball every play. You just gotta win."
Corey Perrine/Staff Photo Illustration First Baptist Academy's Billy Sparacio, 40, is the fall coach of the year. In only it's four year history, Sparacio has built up the football program to be a Class 2A state contender despite a little over 30 players on the team. High school football lead him to play running back at Colgate University. Since, he began his career at Lely High School as an assistant, and Head Coach at Barron Collier. Now, he is Athletic Director at the five year-old K-12 private school. This year he lead the team to a semi-final finish. Despite the sting of not making it further Sparacio said," Obviously having a great season is special, but what I've learned, is about the journey. It's not about that last game, it's about witnessing the kids go from this (pointing) to there (pointing again higher) as a team -- seeing them have that success is that important."
Corey Perrine/Staff Photo Illustration Community School of Naples' Ryan Celano, 17, is the 2012 boys golf player of the year. Recently the junior drove and putted his way to a 7th place finish at the state tournament. He returns in 2013 hoping to capture a state crown. The youngest of four, his influence in golf began from his father competing in tournaments at age 8. One of his biggest achievements came in July, competing in the U.S. Junior Amateur at The Golf Club of New England in Stratham, N.H. "The biggest challenge in golf is keeping your composure. You can hit the perfect shot and it'll hit a sprinkler head or a putt hits the back of the cup," Celano said. "At times it's so frustrating -- but you have to be positive and not feel sorry for yourself."
Corey Perrine/Staff Photo Illustration Barron Collier's Aidan Brennan, 17, is the boys swimmer of the year. Brennan began at age 10 and quit at age 12 because "it just wasn't fun anymore." His freshman year he took a second run at it and has been competing since. The senior re-broke the district records in the 50 and 100 freestyle. He also placed 5th and 6th at state in those events. At 6 feet 1 inch he's committed to swim Division II at Lewis University where he'll study to become a commercial pilot. He hopes to get a shot at the 2016 Olympics in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. "Swimming has taught me to push my limits mentally and physically, Brennan said. "It's taught me to be focused and do better."
Corey Perrine/Staff Photo Illustration Estero's Katy Solis, 18, is the 2012 girls cross country athlete of the year. She fell into the sport because she wanted to condition and train for soccer in 8th grade. Admittedly, "fell in love with it." The rest is history. The past four years she's finished in the top 20 or higher, peaking at a runner-up title in November. She set a personal best with a time of 17:58.70, 10 seconds off the leader and finally outrunning friend and teammate Kacy Smith by 12 tenths of a second. Most important she lead her team to a third consecutive state title. At 5' 9" she's not your typical long distance runner. She works harder than most and has been told a "longer stride than a couple of boys on the team." She's verbally committed to the University of Mississippi next fall on scholarship where she plans to become a pediatrician. "Size doesn't matter. It's the size of your heart," Solis said. "Because it takes heart to be a champion."
Corey Perrine/Staff Photo Illustration Gulf Coast's Anastasia Talalenko, 17, is the 2012 girls golfer of the year. Taught by her father, Talalenko's passion of the game began at age 12. This year the senior placed 8th at the state tournament. As a junior she won the Florida PGA tournament in 2011. She's talented in the classroom boasting a 4.67 weighted grade point average. Talalenko hopes to walk on at Nova Southeast, UCF or UF to study biology or pre-dental. "The biggest lessons golf has taught me is time management and patience," Talalenko said. "What's made me successful (in class and in golf) is telling myself, 'It's not good enough, I can do better' -- not settling."
Corey Perrine/Staff Photo Illustration Barron Collier's Lisa Dunleavy, 17, is the 2012 fall girls volleyball player of the year. The libero, a defensive specialist position, has been playing since age 12. She's been a standout in helping her team as far as regional playoff games and state ranking for her high school. Her biggest accolade includes four Junior Olympics trips at ages 12 and 15-17. Off the court she maintains a 4.0 grade point average. Next fall she has committed to the University of Miami as a recruited walk on. "Volleyball teaches you how to be a leader, manage your time, be part of a team," Dunleavy said. "I've built most my character from my team and coaches."

Irving Raises the Level of Felton's Game
Tommy DeeHow good was that performance? I have to admit, like many people who've seen a million Knicks games I've seen a lot of young players entering games with top billing. Many have had great performances. I remember Jordan's first game. I remember the Shaq/Ewing matchup and who can forget Lebron's early Cleveland years.
Including the aforementioned, I can't think of a more impressive performance than the show Kyrie Irving put on last night. It was an absolute thing of beauty and forced the Knicks to raise their level in order to pull out another home victory. That was a performance that I kept thinking as the Cavs kept hanging around would be an instant classic should the Cavs pull it out. And there was that feeling the the Knicks could run out of gas as the young phenom carried his team to victory.
The best part of that game is that Irving's performance raised the level of Ray Felton. You could just see that Felton wasn't going to allow his team to lose. I LOVE that. He buried a huge 3 and scored 9 points down the stretch. Great performances bring out the best in great teams and builds up the resume of players trying to reach high points in their careers.
And that's exactly what happened last night. Kyrie Irving made Ray Felton play at his absolute best in order to come away with a victory.
Really fun to watch.

.mkv containers support Variable Frame Rate video through the use of a timecodes stream containing individual frame durations (often of dubious accuracy).
Transcode can do nothing with a vfr .mkv file without some preprocessing.
The only known preprocessing step that will yield proper A/V sync is this one using mencoder:
mencoder -oac pcm \ -ovc copy \ -ofps 30000/1001 \ -o $file.avi \ $file.mkv
This will produce a [.avi] file with properly synchronised audio and video. Any cloned frames required will simply be clones of the preceding frame, so not as nice as if you were able to make use of Transcode's modfps filter, but modfps will not handle the vfr correctly yet, so you will have to live with the slight jerkiness produced by the simple cloning.
If the source .mkv contained a subtitle stream that you want to use, extract it as in this example:
mkvextract tracks $file.mkv 3:$file.ass
Then you can use Transcode's mplayer import module to hardsub:
-x mplayer="-sub $file.ass -subpos 85",mplayer
You may need to use other options, including hints about the geometry of the source video stream if it is something that tcprobe doesn't know about (like h264). This command will actually produce a [.m2v] and [.ac3] file which can be mplex'd into a [.mpg] file suitable for use in creating an NTSC DVD:
transcode --nice 20 \ --print_status 500 \ -x mplayer="-sub $file.ass -subpos 85",mplayer \ -G 0.9 \ -w 4000 \ -H 0 \ -g 704x480 \ --import_asr 3 \ -f 29.970,4 \ -n 0x1 \ -y ffmpeg \ -F mpeg2video \ -b 192 \ -j -16,-36,-16,-36 \ --export_asr 3 \ --export_prof dvd-ntsc \ -Z 720x480,fast \ -o $file \ -m $file.ac3 \ -i $file.avi
The options shown in red are the hinting options needed when tcprobe fails. Note that the ",fast" in the -Z option is required in order for the resizing calculations to work when dealing with h264 source, but I have NO idea why.
See the Transcode Command Line Options page for explanations of the individual options.

Jays WBB Exacts A Bit of Revenge on Shockers With 56-46 Win
OMAHA, Neb. - The Creighton women's basketball squad exacted a
measure of revenge with a 56-46 win over Wichita State on Saturday, Feb. 16.
The win lifted the Jays to 18-7 on the season and 10-3 in the Missouri Valley Conference (MVC). Wichita State, meanwhile, dropped to 17-8 overall and 11-2 in the MVC.
As they did in the first meeting, Creighton jumped out early on the Shockers building an 11-4 lead in the first seven minutes. Five different Bluejays got on the board during the run, led by a three-ball from junior McKenzie Fujan. In the first meeting on Jan. 19, the Jays scored the first 11 points of the contest.
The Shockers responded with 17 of the next 23 points to seize the lead at 21-17 with 4:29 remaining in the half.
A three-pointer from the right corner by junior Carli Tritz, stabilized her squad. Down 25-22 moments later, Creighton closed the half on a 7-0 over the final 2:22. Junior Alyssa Kamphaus got the Jays rolling with a layup from the right off an entry pass from freshman Marissa Janning. Following a defensive stop, Janning found junior Alexis Akin-Otiko on the left side of the bucket to give Creighton a 36-35 lead. Janning capped the run with a trey from the left corner, thanks to a quick assist by Tritz.
Leading 29-25 coming out of the break, Creighton continued to roll in the opening moments of the second period. The Bluejays scored nine of the first 11 points to push their lead to 11 at 38-27 with 16:30 on the clock. Once again it was an interior bucket by Kamphaus that got the Jays started, she completed the three point play to make it 32-25. A Shocker bucket made it 32-27, only to see Janning and Fujan drain three-balls and give Creighton its largest lead of the game.
Wichita State chipped away at the Jays advantage over the next six minutes, closing it to a one-possession game at 41-38 (10:01).
That, however, was as close as the Shockers would get as Akin-Otiko dominated the final 8:29. The Bellevue native scored nine of her team-high 13 points down the stretch to secure the win for the Jays.
Joining Akin-Otiko in double figures was Janning with 12, while Wichita State's Michelle Price led all scorers with 15 points.
Akin-Otiko and junior Sarah Nelson cleaned up on the boards, posting a game-high eight rebounds.
Creighton returns to action on Thursday, Feb. 21 as the Bluejays head out on their final road trip of the season at Northern Iowa at 7 p.m. Two days later Creighton will face Bradley in Peoria, Ill. at 2 p.m.

Video: NRA Chief Calls for Armed Police in Every US School
Video: Woman yells 'Ban assault weapons now' at NRA event
(AP) The nation's largest gun-rights lobby is calling for armed police officers to be posted in every American school to stop the next killer "waiting in the wings."
The National Rifle Association broke its silence Friday on last week's shooting rampage at a Connecticut elementary school that left 26 children and staff dead.
The group's top lobbyist, Wayne LaPierre, said at a Washington news conference that, quote, "The only thing that stops a bad guy with a gun is a good guy with a gun."
Read a transcript from the NRA news conference (PDF).
2 On Your Side's Claudine Ewing has reaction from the local president of S.C.O.P.E and a local Congressman on the call for armed cops in schools.

MASSENA - A former Massena man charged with choking his then girlfriend during a domestic dispute has been sentenced to serve four months in the St. Lawrence County Correctional Facility..
Acting Massena Village Justice James M. Crandall sentenced Tyrone Owens of 321 Cushman Road, Fort Covington, to 120 days in jail and ordered him to pay a $205 surcharge and a $50 DNA fee for a criminal obstruction of breathing conviction.
The court also signed an order of protection that directed Owens to stay away from Crystal Fields for the next year.
Mr. Crandall told Owens the jail sentence could be attributed to the Fort Covington mans criminal history, the seriousness of the accusations that led to his arrest and the recommendations contained in the probation departments pre-sentence investigation.
Owens appeared shocked when he heard he was being sentenced to jail time. Are you serious? he shouted out, noting it would impact his plans to attend SUNY Canton during the spring semester.
Prior to sentencing, defense attorney Anya Tendler had noted her client was employed by his uncle, was hoping to get into SUNY Canton and was not receiving any entitlement benefits.
Owens told the court he was very remorseful before the judge handed down his sentence.
Owens had been charged with choking Ms. Fields at approximately 11 p.m. July 3 after she confronted him about the time he was arriving home. She told police at the time that Owens had poked her in the face, pushed her on the bed and grabbed her throat with both hands.
She said she was initially able to get away, but Owens pushed her back on the bed, climbed onto her chest and starting choking her again. Ms. Fields said Owens stopped when her 13-year-old son walked into the bedroom.
Ms. Fields told police after the incident that her chest, throat and arms were sore and that her neck hurt when she moved it.
In other recent court action before Judge Crandall:
■ Robert T. Brand, 36, of 9 Coney Island Drive, Hannawa Falls, was granted a 12-month adjournment in contemplation of dismissal with a stipulation he abide by the terms of a no harassment order of protection.
He had been charged with third-degree assault and endangering the welfare of a child following an investigation into an incident that occurred May 20.
He allegedly fractured his 13-year-old stepsons thumb after an argument turned physical at their home. The teenager, in the statement he provided police, said his stepfather became upset after he called him a psycho and tensions rose even higher after Brand pushed him onto this bed. He said he told Brand not to touch him and to get out of his bedroom.
Brand said his stepsons thumb had been accidentally broken when he was disciplining the teenager and had intercepted the teenagers flailing arms. Defense attorney David Haggard told the court Brand and the teenagers mother are currently in divorce proceedings.
■ Tony A. Hudson, 21, of 8D Reservation St., Winthrop, was granted a 12-month adjournment in contemplation of dismissal with a stipulation he abide by the terms of a no harassment order of protection in favor of his sister.
Hudson had been charged with second-degree aggravated harassment after he sent a text message to his sister threatening to beat her with a baseball bat. That message was sent just a few minutes after Randi Hance=Peets had called her roommate, Ms. Hudson, and threatened to slit her throat if she didnt move out of their residence at 14A Reservation Street.

10 U.S. Code § 866 - Art. 66. Review by Court of Criminal Appeals
(a) Each Judge Advocate General shall establish a Court of Criminal Appeals which shall be composed of one or more panels, and each such panel shall be composed of not less than three appellate military judges. For the purpose of reviewing court-martial cases, the court may sit in panels or as a whole in accordance with rules prescribed under subsection (f). Any decision of a panel may be reconsidered by the court sitting as a whole in accordance with such rules. Appellate military judges who are assigned to a Court of Criminal Appeals may be commissioned officers or civilians, each of whom must be a member of a bar of a Federal court or of the highest court of a State. The Judge Advocate General shall designate as chief judge one of the appellate military judges of the Court of Criminal Appeals established by him. The chief judge shall determine on which panels of the court the appellate judges assigned to the court will serve and which military judge assigned to the court will act as the senior judge on each panel.
(b) The Judge Advocate General shall refer to a Court of Criminal Appeals the record in each case of trial by court-martial—
(1) in which the sentence, as approved, extends to death, dismissal of a commissioned officer, cadet, or midshipman, dishonorable or bad-conduct discharge, or confinement for one year or more; and
(2) except in the case of a sentence extending to death, the right to appellate review has not been waived or an appeal has not been withdrawn under section 861 of this title (article 61).
(c) In a case referred to it, the Court of Criminal Appeals may act only with respect to the findings and sentence as approved by the convening authority. It may affirm only such findings of guilty, and the sentence or such part or amount of the sentence, as it finds correct in law and fact and determines, on the basis of the entire record, should be approved. In considering the record, it may weigh the evidence, judge the credibility of witnesses, and determine controverted questions of fact, recognizing that the trial court saw and heard the witnesses.
(d) If the Court of Criminal Appeals sets aside the findings and sentence, it may, except where the setting aside is based on lack of sufficient evidence in the record to support the findings, order a rehearing. If it sets aside the findings and sentence and does not order a rehearing, it shall order that the charges be dismissed.
(e) The Judge Advocate General shall, unless there is to be further action by the President, the Secretary concerned, the Court of Appeals for the Armed Forces, or the Supreme Court, instruct the convening authority to take action in accordance with the decision of the Court of Criminal Appeals. If the Court of Criminal Appeals has ordered a rehearing but the convening authority finds a rehearing impracticable, he may dismiss the charges.
(f) The Judge Advocates General shall prescribe uniform rules of procedure for Courts of Criminal Appeals and shall meet periodically to formulate policies and procedure in regard to review of court-martial cases in the offices of the Judge Advocates General and by Courts of Criminal Appeals.
(g) No member of a Court of Criminal Appeals shall be required, or on his own initiative be permitted, to prepare, approve, disapprove, review, or submit, with respect to any other member of the same or another Court of Criminal Appeals, an effectiveness, fitness, or efficiency report, or any other report or document used in whole or in part for the purpose of determining whether a member of the armed forces is qualified to be advanced in grade, or in determining the assignment or transfer of a member of the armed forces, or in determining whether a member of the armed forces should be retained on active duty.
(h) No member of a Court of Criminal Appeals shall be eligible to review the record of any trial if such member served as investigating officer in the case or served as a member of the court-martial before which such trial was conducted, or served as military judge, trial or defense counsel, or reviewing officer of such trial.

16 U.S. Code § 742a - Declaration of policy
The Congress declares that the fish, shellfish, and wildlife resources of the Nation make a material contribution to our national economy and food supply, as well as a material contribution to the health, recreation, and well-being of our citizens; that such resources are a living, renewable form of national wealth that is capable of being maintained and greatly increased with proper management, but equally capable of destruction if neglected or unwisely exploited; that such resources afford outdoor recreation throughout the Nation and provide employment, directly or indirectly, to a substantial number of citizens; that the fishing industries strengthen the defense of the United States through the provision of a trained seafaring citizenry and action-ready fleets of seaworthy vessels; that the training and sport afforded by fish and wildlife resources strengthen the national defense by contributing to the general health and physical fitness of millions of citizens; and that properly developed, such fish and wildlife resources are capable of steadily increasing these valuable contributions to the life of the Nation.
The Congress further declares that the fishing industry, in its several branches, can prosper and thus fulfill its proper function in national life only if certain fundamental needs are satisfied by means that are consistent with the public interest and in accord with constitutional functions of governments. Among these needs are:
(1) Freedom of enterprise—freedom to develop new areas, methods, products, and markets in accordance with sound economic principles, as well as freedom from unnecessary administrative or legal restrictions that unreasonably conflict with or ignore economic needs;
(2) Protection of opportunity—maintenance of an economic atmosphere in which domestic production and processing can prosper; protection from subsidized competing products; protection of opportunity to fish on the high seas in accordance with international law;
(3) Assistance—assistance consistent with that provided by the Government for industry generally, such as is involved in promoting good industrial relations, fair trade standards, harmonious labor relations, better health standards and sanitation; and including, but not limited to—
(a) services to provide current information on production and trade, market promotion and development, and an extension service,
(c) resource management to assure the maximum sustainable production for the fisheries.
The Congress further declares that the provisions of this Act are necessary in order to accomplish the objective of proper resource development, and that this Act shall be administered with due regard to the inherent right of every citizen and resident of the United States to engage in fishing for his own pleasure, enjoyment, and betterment, and with the intent of maintaining and increasing the public opportunities for recreational use of our fish and wildlife resources, and stimulating the development of a strong, prosperous, and thriving fishery and fish processing industry.

Jefferson County District Attorney Cindy F. Intschert on Friday took exception to how Sheriff John P. Burns has described the role her office played in determining what charges should be pursued against a deputy suspected of drunken driving.
The disagreement may have influenced the Jefferson County Legislature, which has called for a special meeting Tuesday to consider appropriate actions following the suspension of several Sheriffs Department employees for various reasons.
Ms. Intschert called the Times on Friday and asked that a reporter speak with Chief Assistant District Attorney Kristyna S. Mills about her conversation with Sheriff Burns before he charged Deputy Adam B. Hallett with having an open alcoholic beverage container in his vehicle. The charge followed an internal inquiry into an incident in which Deputy Hallett was found asleep in his patrol vehicle off County Route 72 in the town of Henderson several hours after he went off duty Dec. 1.
On Jan. 10, Mr. Burns told the Times that the investigation failed to substantiate any other charge and said, I took this to the district attorney, and I was told that the only charge I could go with was the open container.
According to Mrs. Mills, however, the sheriff may already have had the open-container charge in mind when he came to see her.
He handed me the file. He said, This is what I see. I only see an open container. I want to make sure Im not missing anything. Do you agree? Mrs. Mills said.
Sheriff Burns did not return a Times request for comment.
Mrs. Mills said the district attorneys office does not have the authority to level charges and does not advise law enforcement personnel on how they should charge an alleged offender. Her office does consult with officers on how charges may play out in court.
We can say what we can prosecute. We can only prosecute what we have evidence for, she said.
I cant comment on what should have been done and what shouldnt have been done in the investigation, because that is not my job. All I can comment on is based on what they did that night. We didnt have evidence to support anything higher than an open container, Mrs. Mills said.
Mr. Burns has said on multiple occasions that proper law enforcement protocol was not followed when Deputy Hallett was first discovered, resulting in a lack of evidence necessary for a more serious charge.
The discrepancy has raised more questions in the minds of some Jefferson County legislators.
If theres a difference in opinion in how events transpired here, thats enough of a reason for an external review, said Scott A. Gray, chairman of the Finance and Rules Committee.
John D. Peck, R-Great Bend, said, This is why were asking for an external investigation to hash some of these finer details out. Its as a means to try to help the department, not hurt the department.
The special board session to further address certain personnel matters, according to the agenda, is scheduled for 7 p.m. Tuesday.

CARBONVILLE - Today, March 13, 2012, our dad, papa, grandpa and great-grandpa, Antonio Manuel "Bud" Jaramillo left this world to once again be with his precious sweetheart, Rose, while surrounded by his loving family.
Bud was born Jan. 14, 1929 in Montrose, Colo., to Manuel and Celia Chavez Jaramillo. He enlisted in the U.S. Army and shortly after returning from the service he met, fell in love and married "the most beautiful girl he'd ever seen" on April 9, 1949. When Mom passed away in 2008, he was heartbroken and missed her terribly. Their love for each other was the one of a kind every one dreams of having.
Together they raised a beautiful family, Cindy (Frank) Pero, Toni (Bert) Jeanselme, and Terry (Jane) Jaramillo. They also have two "kids", Richard and Lynne Rudman. Dad's love for his family was endless. He instilled in us a great respect for others. He had a strong work ethic and taught us to always give our best in all we do.
Bud had several jobs over the years, but his favorite was working at Carbon High School. He loved being around all the kids and they loved him. To many he was known as "Grandpa Buddy" and he made friends everywhere he went.
He was the best Grandpa ever! Many of our happiest memories with him will be camping, deer hunting, building a snowman in the front yard or just sitting quietly in his lap while he rocked the grandkids and sang the "do do do do" song. We'll never forget the volleyball and horseshoe games.
Dad loved a good party! Many a New Year was spent laughing and playing pool in the basement. He and Mom could clear a dance floor with their jitterbug or polka.
Dad and Mom's love and devotion will forever live and inspire their children and grandchildren: Amie (Tory) Christiansen, Andy Jeanselme, Brett Jeanselme, Melissa (Brad) Heiner, Kristy (Hernan) Ortiz, Tiffany (Ed) Malmgren, Nicholas Rudman and Marissa Lydia; 17 great-grandchildren and his cat Rosie. He is also survived by two sisters, Aline Martin and Sylvia Stevenson.
Dad requested no services. We suggest sharing memories or donating to your favorite charity.
We would like to thank Dr. Etzel and the staff of Castleview Hospital for the wonderful loving care Dad received. A special thanks to Dannette Moynier for her special support.
Arrangements entrusted to Mitchell Funeral Home of Price where friends are welcome to share memories of Bud at www.mitchellfuneralhome.net.

Great tubes
By Greg
from Long Island, NY
About Me Avid Cyclist
See all my reviews
Comments about Michelin A1 Airstop Presta Road Tube:
Great tubes for the money. Michelin's quality is better than most of the cheaper tubes. It's a bit harder to press pump head down onto threadless valve stem, but you get used to it.
Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

About Me Casual/ Recreational
I received four tubes, three out of the four tubes had tiny pin holes in them. The air leaks were very small, I failed to notice the leak at first.
Bottom Line No, I would not recommend this to a friend
Smooth valve stems... oh, yeah!
By Phreaddy
from Houston, Texas
The smooth valve stem makes these MUCH easier to use with pumps with a Silca-type chuck, which doesn't have a lock/unlock feature.

Great Quality Tube at a Reasonable Price
By Splashboy
from Hobe Sound, FL
I like the 52mm smooth valve because it protrudes from my alloy rims enough to make attaching my air pump head easy, and it causes less wear on the pump head rubber gasket than threaded valve stems do. I have tried 48mm and 60mm stems; the 52mm is just right for me. The Airstop tubes are very durable. In Florida I ride on clean roads and have very few flats. When I visit family in upstate NY I ride on roads with glass, stone shards, and wire from radial tire blowouts. In NY, using tire liners, I have had no flats with the Airstops. Without the tire liners I believe no tube would survive.

Popped tubes aren't much use

hold air well
By Peddlin' Pastor
from Cottonwood, CA
I've been using these tubes for about a year now and like them very well. They seem to hold air better than other tubes I've used, so I find myself not having to air them up as often. Can't ask for much more out of a tube!
One of two worked
By Runner or Biker
from Space Coast, FL
I bought two new tires and two of these tubes. One tube leaked right away. On both sides of the stem, the tube ballooned into two big bulges with no air pressure. There was a pinhole in one bulge. I patched it, but it only lasted one day. I gave up and replaced it. The other one is working.
Was very happy with performaance & quali

Holds pressure well
By Packman
from North Las Vegas, NV
Works as well or better than any other tube I've used, plus I like the long, smooth stem. Like other tubes, I must add more air after a week, but that's to be expected. I run these at 110 PSI and put my 300 lb body on top so that's no light load, but these work fine.

It's a tube...
By Charly Patton
from NJ
I like to wait until Nashbar has a sale, and then buy ten of these at a time, but even at the regular price, they are a good value.I run these with 700x25c width tires. I've been riding Vittoria Open Corsas, but I am switching to Continental 4000s, due to a lot of rear wheel punctures this season, but I blame that on the tires, not the tubes. I've never had a failure that appeared to be a defect in the tube itself.These tubes are available with 40mm, 52mm, or 60mm valve stems. Nashbar has been shipping the 52mm size as their standard, so be aware that you can't use valve extenders with these due to the non-removable valve cores and lack of threads.

Read what customers are saying about this product:
Rating: 3.83 out of 18 votes cast
Great skirt
Perfect size and perfect length. Comfortable to wear and a very nice print. I hope they keep making this style of skirt in other fabrics.
Morristown, NJ
OK skirt
I rate this skirt as average. I got the peach and the color is very pretty for spring and summer. But, I bought a size 8p and the length is still in the middle of my knee, unless I want to pull them up past the waist. Then the styling-cut is such that the hips flare out much more than they show in the photo so you don't get silhouette of a pencil skirt. They are okay, but not exceptional.
Bowie, MD
Second time was the charm
The first time the skirt arrived, it said "2P" (the size) in big pink letters above the kick pleat and the kick pleat had a dirt stain. I sent it back for another, and the replacement came within a couple weeks and was perfect. The skirt fits well, the light green color was as expected and there were no flaws. If it came that way the first time, I would give it 5 stars.
Riverside, CA
Laundering Caution
6.2.2015 Caution: Even though this article can be thrown into the washer and laundered in cold water, there is some shrinkage, resulting in the nylon lining hanging lower than the linen/rayon fabric.
Stony Point, NY
Nice skirt
This skirt was just what I expected. Fit and style are great!
Kansas City
very nice color, fabric and style.
fit is nice
This skirt I ordered in the pink color to match a pink seersucker jacket I have had for a long time. It is a good match because the color is light and good for summer. The fit is very good! The only problem I have is that it wrinkles easily as linen does. I hoped it would be less prone to wrinkling because of the blend but I will keep it anyway.
Beautiful fit, great fabric!
Waukesha, WI
Nice Spring Colors
Love the colors and the length, but giving them 3 stars because they are very wrinkly after washing.
Westfield, IN
Nice Length
The skirt is a nice length it fell just below the knee, I'm 5'8". However ended up having to return for a size larger because of snug fit.
Hartsville, SC
Linen skirt
I ordered this skirt hoping it would fit and it did, Love It!!! I also bought 2 more and 3 Linen dresses. Thanks Chadwick's for the wonderful clothes
McIntosh, Alabama
Beautiful summer color!!!
This skirt was the perfect fit. Beautiful summer color!!!
Darlington, SC
A bit skimpy!
Last year I ordered size 8s and everything had to go back so this year I ordered 6P but it is really skimpy and very short. It's on its way back and I have not decided whether I'll re-order.
Woodstock, VA
Runs small
Love the look of this skirt, but ordered a size 8 which was very very snug. I'm normally between an 8-10, but my experience has been that Chadwicks clothing runs on the generous side. Well, not this time. I'm exchanging it for a size 10 though becasue it really is a pretty skirt. Lots of blues in the print that will be easy to match up tops to.
aurora co
White linen pencil skirt
The color of the skirt I received was more like beige than white, which looked terrible. The waist band was noticeably lighter than the rest of the skirt. Overall, the quality of the fabric was very poor. I was extremely unhappy and I promptly returned the skirt for a refund.
Altadena, CA
Linen skirts
These skirts are really nice. Well made, good choice of colors. I purchased three of them but unfortunately had to return them as they were a little too big and don't come in a smaller size. I would buy them for sure if they came in my size. I LOVE Chadwick's clothes!

My letter to Mozilla
In a nutshell, I'm calling Mozilla out for labeling words like "Pastafarian" as incorrect in their Firefox browser's dictionary. I believe that doing such a thing when the words describing other religions are accepted is clearly an example of religious persecution. Yes, it's something every other religion has fought over at one point, and many are still in the process. Naturally, given our status as the worlds most peaceful religion, the more high-and-mighty people who disagree with His teachings are going to do their best to keep us down. But, we are faithful and persistent, and guided by His noodley appendage we can overcome such persecution. Therefore, I urge everyone who knows of censorship (or "redlining") of words like FSMism, Pastafarian, and Venganza to post about it here so we can help get the word out to people like Mozilla's developers & help them embrace Pastafarianism in commercial products people use and see every day.
