SIOUX FALLS, S.D. -- Josh Gasser, who missed last season with a knee injury, scored 19 points and No. 20 Wisconsin opened the season with an 86-75 victory over St. John's on Friday night.
The Badgers, who had five players score in double figures, never trailed and took control with an early 11-2 run and then went 11 of 23 from 3-point range.
The game was played in the 3,250-seat Sanford Pentagon.
Sam Dekker had 16 points for Wisconsin, which opened away from home for the first time in eight years.
D'Angelo Harrison had 27 points for the Red Storm and JaKarr Sampson added 21 points and seven rebounds. St. John's was outscored 33-6 from beyond the arc.
Duje Dukan scored a career high 15 points and 5 rebounds off the Badgers bench while senior Ben Brust added 15 points and 3 triples. Traevon Jackson rounded out the double-digit scorers with 13 points and a team-high 4 assists.
Wisconsin led by as many as 18 points in the first half. St. John's got within 58-54 with about 8 minutes left before the Badgers hit consecutive 3-pointers in a span of 22 seconds.

Sudanese church leaders urge support from U.S. faith community
"Now is the time for the church community in the United States--and the world--to raise its voice in solidarity with the people of southern Sudan as they move closer to an important referendum in the North Africa nation."
Editors: Photos to accompany this story can be downloaded at www.churchworldservice.org/hires
The referendum is a provision of the 2005 Comprehensive Peace Agreement, which ended 21 years of war between the Government of Sudan and the Sudan People's Liberation Movement in the south. The delegation fears that attempts to interfere with the balloting or the results will result in chaos and renewed fighting between the north and south.
The delegation is taking steps to assure that its advocacy resonates beyond the walls of the sanctuary. In addition to sermons and meetings with ecumenical leaders, the Oct. 10- 22 U.S. visit includes discussions with U.N. officials and General Secretary Ban Ki-moon, a forum at the Council on Foreign Relations in New York City, and meetings with state department officials in Washington, D.C.

POSTED: 1:30 a.m. HST, Nov 2, 2012
You've spied the electronic billboard message on the interstate and maybe felt a chill as you did — "Amber Alert," then a car description, a license number. Who among us hasn't at least taken a glance to the left and right to make sure we weren't passing the suspect vehicle at that very moment?
But who among us would dare to follow such a car if we saw it? Yeah, we'd phone 911. But chase the vehicle, at a safe distance, to a service station? Try to peek in the tinted windows?
That's the killer premise of "Amber Alert," an often effective, occasionally illogical thriller built on "found footage" of such a pursuit.
Rated: R
» Two showings only at Consolidated Kapolei midnight tonight and Saturday
Sam (Summer Bellessa) and Nate (Chris Hill) are BFFs, Arizona 20-somethings who get Sam's younger brother to videotape their audition tape for an unnamed reality TV show — probably "The Amazing Race." They're bubbly chatterboxes who share their platonic hobbies and habits. And the unseen Caleb documents it all.
But their tape is now in police custody, we're told, because on it they captured evidence of a crime. Driving down an interstate, they see an Amber Alert and spy the car listed on it — a gray Honda Accord hybrid, with matching license plate.
Sam is the one whose concern runs to worst-case scenarios. Nate frets over the time they're "wasting" chasing this car (they've called the police), the meals he's missing. It's just a child custody dispute involving a divorced couple. He's sure of it. "Do you not care if we lose them?" Sam shrieks. "Do you not care about little kids getting molested and murdered?"
Bellessa suggests there's more to Sam's determination, her willingness to take risks to help some child she isn't even sure is in the Accord. Sam has the thoughtless immortality of youth, seemingly not thinking through what could happen to her if she confronts the driver of that car. Hill does a great job of playing the "just friends" guy, a timid pushover who will indulge the prettiest woman in his life simply to impress her, even if that tests their friendship.
As this lean little thriller drives along, tensions rise and tempers flare in the pursuit car. Nate, not wanting to get involved, is willing to believe the best, that the driver (Jasen Wade) looks like "a regular dude" and couldn't be a child molester. "Reckless" Sam is hung up on the worst. By the time Sam is taking stupid risks, running up to the Amber Alert car at a service station, she's hysterical.
But they're not the only ones raising their voices.
For viewers, "Alert" is a real shout-at-the-screen picture. Where are the elusive cops? Why aren't Sam and Nate calling and updating those cops with every turn the gray Accord makes? Why haven't those cops tracked the license plate of the abductor, since that's on their own Amber Alert notice board, and thus gotten to his house already?
In a thriller that's as quick and short as "Amber Alert," some of those quibbles occur to you, briefly, as you watch it. But if you're sucked into it, the worst of them won't sink in until the closing credits roll.
We've seen ghosts and Blair witches and demons and zombies in this growing "found footage" genre. But "Amber Alert" brings a little something new to the form: the urgency of pursuit, risks with real-world consequences. And despite its many shortcomings in logic, writer-director Kerry Bellessa's sharp execution almost makes up for them.

Which makes it all the more perplexing that "Project Runway," the popular reality competition in which aspiring fashion designers face off with their clothing creations, should be stuck in a legal quagmire that threatens to keep the show off the air indefinitely. In its first five seasons on the Bravo cable channel, "Project Runway" increased its average audience to 4 million viewers an episode from 1 million an episode, making the most recent season its biggest ever.
But while producers of the show have already shot the design competitions that will make up most of the series's sixth season, those new episodes are unlikely to see the light of day for several months, according to people involved in the case.
The delay is the result of the continuing legal dispute between the Weinstein Company, which produces the series, and NBC Universal, the parent of Bravo. Early this year the Weinstein Company sold the rights to the series to Lifetime Networks for five years for what it says was some $200 million.

EAST GREENWICH-Throughout high school, many students choose to become more responsible by getting part-time jobs and learning the value of a dollar. However, people don't typically understand money management until much later in life, so with the help of one group of EGHS students, financial literacy standards have been adopted by the Council for Elementary and Secondary Education for the first time in Rhode Island.
EAST GREENWICH- An East Greenwich School District employee has been awarded the Elizabeth M. Dalton Award, an award given to those who are committed to improve the access that students with disabilities have to technology.
Cheryl Simmons, an occupational therapist of the school district, has received the award for her work with the students in East Greenwich. After being nominated, she was given recognition at the Tuesday night school committee meeting.

EAST GREENWICH- The East Greenwich Ad Hoc Committee studying school start times held the first of two public forums Monday night, where attendees were given the chance to learn about what's best for EG students.
EAST GREENWICH-After much talk about school district ratings, recent data proves that East Greenwich High School has some of the highest recorded SAT scores in the state.
EAST GREENWICH - Rocky Hill School's very own Jared Lind, 13, will be playing Tom of Warwick in the upcoming touring broadway production of "Camelot" at the Providence Performing Arts Center.
Lind told the East Greenwich Pendulum in a phone interview last week that his love for theater began in the not-so-distant past.
"I had a third-grade acting teacher that had put me in the lead role of our third grade play," he said. "I really enjoyed it, so I continued that program with her. In seventh grade, I got the lead role in the middle school play as Robin in Robin Hood."
EAST GREENWICH-After receiving a $30,000 grant from the Champlin Foundation to add new technology to the school library, Archie R. Cole Middle School Principal Alexis Meyer detailed what the school plans on doing with the money.
RICHMOND ŌĆö On Tuesday night, the town council revisited a participation agreement between the Town of Richmond and the Partnership for Rhode Island Streetlight Management (PRISM) that would allow the town to buy its own streetlights and, eventually, reap substantial savings.
Because newly-elected councilors Charles More and Ronald Newman were not there for the previous presentation, Washington County Regional Planning Council Executive Director Jeffery Broadhead reiterated the project details.

Hello everyone!
I have recently become a biker out of necessity, since a quad injury forced me to stop running for a time. Also, that same injury prompted some depression, which prompted some poor eating choices, which prompted the pounds to start piling. So, now that I've been biking regularly for a few weeks, I have some questions.
1. The weight has not been coming off like I had expected. I know that with running you can burn approximately 100 calories per mile, but what about biking? Right now, I'm averaging 125 miles per week on my bike, with a long ride on Saturdays between 35-45 miles long. I'm doing a little bit of "speed work" maybe once or twice a week, with easy rides in between where I don't pay any attention at all to my speed. I weight 135 lbs, and I need to lose between 10-15lbs. Diet-wise, I'm basically doing the South Beach Diet which doesn't seem to affect my biking one way or the other. Any suggestions here?
2. What is the comparative ratio between biking and running? If I bike 30 miles, what is that approximately in running miles? Or is it just the rate of exertion that I should be measuring? Primarily, my concern is how much running fitness can I expect to lose with the biking I'm doing now?
Thanks for your help, I really appreciate it!

Nampa Fire Captain recovers from vicious attack
Image by City of Nampa Fire Dept.
Nampa Fire Captain Chris Cade, one of the victims of the crime rampage in Meridian last week, is resting at home after his release from St. Alphonsus Regional Medical Center in Boise on Sunday.
Cade was allegedly attacked by Sean Carnell, a 23-year-old Meridian man who was arrested on several felony and misdemeanor charges that stemmed from illegal drugs.
After Cade's facial swelling subsides surgeons will be able to determine next steps in what is hoped will be a complete recovery. It appears that numerous plates and screws will need to be installed throughout his entire face. After those heal, doctors can start working on the significant damage caused to his mouth and teeth.
Cade's collapsed lung appears to be functioning as normal after a chest tube was removed. This is a positive sign and also a strong indicator that Cade's physical fitness prior to the attack made a difference in his recovery.
In addition to his severe facial injuries, Cade suffered a broken rib, broken collar bone and a fractured scapula.
The Cade family said they were appreciative of the outpouring of support and thankful for their Nampa Fire Department family. They also noted the support they received from numerous fire departments throughout the Treasure Valley. The family requested that the public continue to keep them in its thoughts and prayers, along with the family of the suspect.

Thank you for taking the time to respond. Bill
From Charlotte Observer, May 2008
Spencer-- It's a clash between two Southern staples -- the Civil War and racing.
The dispute centers on a former textile mill and 130 acres of forest just north of this Rowan County railroad town near the Yadkin River.
Here, former Boston investment banker Dave Risdon, now of Huntersville, N.C., is clearing land to build a 2.15-mile "country club" raceway for amateur drivers of souped up sports cars and motorcycles. The raceway would include a clubhouse and 120 townhouses lining the track.
But for preservationists, the land is sacred. They claim it as part of a Civil War battlefield where Confederates won their last victory in the Carolinas on April 12, 1865 - three days after Lee's surrender to Grant at Appomattox, but two weeks before N.C. troops surrendered.
Last week, the non-profit Civil War Preservation Trust included the site, about 45 miles north of Charlotte, among it's annual list of the nation's 25 most-endangered Civil War battlefields.
"We're not anti-development, but we try to get people to take a hard look at where theiy're trying to build things," said the trust's Mary Koik. "You can move a school - or in this case a racetrack - but you can't move a battlefield."
Sides for the current skirmish were quickly drawn in 2005, when Risdon announced his track plans. The debate is over how much of his land was occupied by troops during the 1865 battle for a vital railroad bridge over the Yadkin River.
Preservationist Ann Brownlee, Risdon's most vocal critic, argues that the racetrack would be "smack in the heart of the battleground. If you take out the heart, the periphery will be meaningless."
She said her assertion is backed by cannonballs and other artifacts found at the site, along with an eyewitness account of a Union cavalryman being shot off his horse there.
She's not the lone voice. Several residents have written letters to local newspapers decrying anymore destruction of the battlefield.
Most of the fighting did take place on or near the bridge.
In the war's waning days, Union forces led by General George Stoneman had stormed through Western North Carolina in what became known as "Stoneman's Raid." Early on April 12, they captured Salisbury, determined to destroy supply lines.
Stoneman liberated and burned the city's infamous Confederate prison, then turned a brigade of about 1,200 troops on the bridge.
The raiders arrived about 2 p.m. But, across the river into Davidson County, Confederate General Zebulon York had spread a like number of troops - with four or five pieces of artillery - along a bluff that overlooked the bridge.
As the Federal troops approached, the Confederates fired from "York Hill" and drove them back. After more than five hours of fighting, the Union raiders retreated to Salisbury. More than 15 had been killed or mortally wounded.
Yet after three years of controversy, not one turn has been cut into the rolling terrain. the project was slowed by two lawsuits Brownlee's group filed but ultimately dropped. The town of Spencer annexed Risdon's land, hopeful of the track's economic benefits. Last August, its zoning board gave him the go-ahead - concluding that the land's historical significance was destroyed decades ago. A month later, a court order stopped work after workers began grading more land than the town permit allowed.

The race track group went bust. The land was auctioned to satisify judgments against the developers for not producing the promised skyboxes that people invested in.

De Pere, WI -- The Beloit College Football team suffered a big 44-0 loss at St. Norbert College in De Pere, Wisconsin, on Saturday afternoon in their final road game of the 2009 season.
The Green Knights were playing their last game at Minahan Stadium in De Pere after 71 years and put up a big ending performance.
SNC scored once in the opening quarter and added 13 more points in the second to lead 20-0 at the half. They broke the game open with a 17-point third quarter before closing out the scoring with a fourth quarter TD.
Cody Large led the offense with 54 yards rushing on 15 carries while Derek Carrier had two catches for 38 yards.
On defense, Tony Baratti had 11 tackles and Matt Fogerty ten while Chris Juels had an interception.
The Buccaneers close out their 2009 season next Saturday when they host Grinnell College for a 12:00 noon kickoff at Strong Stadium. It will be Senior Day as the Bucs say goodbye to ten seniors in their final game.

What is the procedure they did to know about scar tissue and endometriosis?. Before going for my first IUI they did only HSG and they told everything is fine and with my first iui i became pregnant but miscarried in 4th month so again before my 2nd iui again i again went for HSG and they told everything is fine but last 3 iuis were failure.The only difference i observed with 1st and remaining 3 iuis is my uterus thickness... with first it is 8 and for other three 6.5 i am not sure whether it made any difference.
Att76 All the Best .I wish lots of baby dust your way.After my 3rd iui i was not ready to go for IVF because of the costfactor and went for 4th iui even now i am not sure whether i will go for IVF .I will decide once i speak with the RE ....i can afford only for 1 IVF....so i kept it as last option.View Thread
First of all I Wish you all the best with your expected new arrival., Is there any insurance plan that covers infertility treatments ?.....I tried to contact my insurance long time back when i first met my RE my and they could not help me....I live in Connecticut and have united plan....I am not sure whether it covers for IVF because it did not cover for IUI..did your insurance covered IUI too?is Cadillac a insurance plan or they just refer a coverage with that name.....
I have appointment with dr Next week and just worrying about all these things because i see no other option except IVF after failed iuis ....thought to gather some information from you people so that I get some idea before I meet the dr.
ThanksView Thread
I am done with my 4th iui with no success.Now i think next step is IVF.I have a few questions about IVF.I see some people went through IVF here so i thought of asking my doubts here ....
1.DO drs do laproscopy before doing IVF?some pople told they have undergone laproscopy before IVF and it helps...
2.I heard drs use BCP to regulate your period(if it is irregular)before starting IVF has anyone did that.
3.when does IVF procedure start from 1st day of period?or before 1week of expected period
4.Finally what may be approx cost for IVF procedure.
Hope some one here answers my doubts
Thanks in advance.View Thread
I am not sure about that but people usually say 10 days after last pill...but for me ovulation happens day7 after last pill so I suggest you to check after day6 of last pill.i guess may be between cd16 to cd 21.View Thread
What is your next plan...keep in touch.View Thread
Thanks for the reply....yes my Dr prescribed Clomid this month.....so i will be taking Clomid along with Metformin this month.
But i found little difference in taking clomid this month ie, in past i took clomid from cd3-cd7 but in this cycle my Dr want me to take from CD4-CD8(may be she suggested depending on my blood work i am not sure)
After i spoke to her i felt really bad because when she told me "take clomid from tomorrow" i thought may be she is thinking that today is CD2 so i told her today is CD3 and you want me to take clomid on cd4?i asked this twice(as i was concerned) but i think she took it wrong way she just answered me that you need to believe Dr because they have Degree(in harsh tone)....though i know there is nothing wrong to clarify my doubt still i felt bad because i didn't mean that way but still she took it that way.....also this is the second time she felt that way .....
Sorry my reply is too long just felt i need to share this with some one who can understand ..... because every one here know how hard is this infertility journey and we have so many concerns regarding our cycle and medicines and it is only on Drs we all trust and depend on and we expect them to really understand our concerns.........View Thread
First of all Congratulations ........I can understand how worried you are as i too experienced m/c and i know i too will have same feeling when i get preg..........i just advice you not to think in negative way....don't think because it happened twice it will happen again also try to talk to your dr about all your worries ......take care ...
Wish you Happy and healthy 9 months....keep smilingView Thread
I was on 1000mg of Metformin and I was regularly going for blood tests to check whether I ovulated or not ....and found that i was ovulating between cd 25 to cd 30 and hence used to get my periods late .......so last month my dr increased my met dosage to 1500mg and told me since the dosage got increased i would get periods on time but now this month i didn't get my periods and blood test say that i did not ovulate at all(today is cd45)so now he prescribed provera 10 mg for 5 days to get my periods....
My question is does the increase in dosage of metformin effect my ovulation?like before at least i used to get delayed periods now they have stopped altogether .......l am very concerned about that.Also how long does it take to start periods after taking provera 10 mg for 5 days...View Thread
Also from past 2 months I have been getting spotting and cramping at cd30 as though my periods starts but actual period is starting at cd37or cd45....i know when we have pcos periods are irregular but i couldn't figure out the reason for spotting on cd30 (with out period).....I tried to discuss all these things with my doc but she didn't give me any answer...View Thread

I've been on the pump since... 2002 I think... yes, it was in 2002 because I was a sophomore in high school when I first got on it. I was using a bright blue paradigm 515 Then I upgraded twice after that. I upgraded to a pump that looked just like my paradigm 522 but it didn't work with a CGM. I use the OneTouch UltraLink glucose monitor and it's so great that my meter sends my BG readings to my pump so I wouldn't have to plug in my readings into my pump all the time. Then I upgraded again to a pretty purple-colored 522 pump so I could use the CGM.
The pump is great. It's like an outside pancreas. The only problem I have with it is that I always accidentally hit it everyone because I am so active and I move around all the time.
But before the pump, I first started out using the Regular and NPH insulin. That was back in 1994. Then a few years later I switched from that to the Lantus and the Humolog. I hated lugging around handfuls of syringes and vials of insulin. Sometimes I didn't carry enough that I had to come back home from wherever I was to get more.
I think the pump is great because you get more of an accurate insulin dosage. The pump calculates how much insulin to give you after punching in how many carbs you are going to eat AND it also factors in you blood sugar reading. It's really hard to inject 3.2 units of insulin lol View Thread
Going from syringes to the insulin pump was such a big change for me, but like dgarner11 said, once you get passed having a little machine attached to you 24/7, i think you'll like it a lot! It's as small as a regular flip phone and you can hide it in your pocket. No more carrying around needles, alcohol swabs, and vials of insulin with you everywhere you go! You get more freedom!
It's ok if you have no experience with using an insulin pump. A pump trainer/educator will teach you everything you need to know. At first I felt overwhelmed and frustrated with learning how to use the pump. But once I got the hang out of, I ended up loving it! Be sure to take lots of notes! View Thread

BUFORD - Imagine, when you drive up to Lake Lanier, a 40-foot cascading waterfall that takes your breath away.There will be shops and restaurants in a village - before a required gate fee to enter the resort - then a brightly lit bridge to remind you that you are entering another world. Inside, life will be slower. Electric cars, bicycles and Segways, an electric scooter, will share room on the roads. There will be pull-offs to enjoy the scenery and walking trails to get closer to nature. Then there are the buildings: a lodge that will look like it has grown from the ground, cottages, a wellness center, a spa, yacht club and wedding chapel. And that's only the beginning. Virgil Williams, who with his family purchased the lease on the Lake Lanier Islands and Emerald Pointe Resort last year, has a vision for the 1,100-acre property near Gwinnett's northern tip that is much broader than golf courses and hotels. "We want more tranquility, more of a sanctuary feel. When you come on the islands, we want life to slow down for you for a little bit," he said. "Everywhere you go, you're in a car, out on the freeway, speeding along, in traffic or at red lights. We want to change that." Williams' vision, presented to the Lake Lanier Islands' Board of Directors Friday, is a reimagining of what the resort can be. He said plans for the many projects will probably be completed in the spring of 2007 and construction could begin in 2008. One of the first projects could be a replacement for the PineIsle Resort, which closed last fall. "We're anxious to do it," he said. The changes to Lake Lanier Islands will range from streets and speed limits to gate access to signs and activities. Even some holes on the Emerald Pointe golf course may be moved. Art Oldham, who is helping the Williams family craft their plans, spoke of an iconography in rebranding the lake. The waterfall at its entrance will let people know that they have arrived at their destination and signs and buildings made from indigenous materials will blend into the landscape, he said. "It will be the sign, it will be the image, it will be the icon to this place," Oldham said. Roundabouts to make traffic flow more smoothly could be designed with Sidney Lanier, the lake's namesake, in mind, Oldham said. Lines from his poems might be engraved in stonework around the roundabouts or trees mentioned in his writings could be planted in their centers. Other traffic-related ideas include the construction of 110,000 feet of walking trails where there are currently none, a reduced speed limit of 20 miles per hour to accommodate electric vehicles and bicycles, pull-off lanes every quarter mile to allow motorists to stop and enjoy the scenery and the enhancement of the bridge to the islands that will add characteristics to give it the illusion of being a suspension bridge. All those changes will be secondary to new building construction that will draw visitors to the lake. Considerations include moving the entry gate back to that bridge and creating a village with restaurants that people can frequent without having to pay an entry fee. "We want to make sure the local populace won't have any barriers to come to the Islands," Williams said. Once inside the gate, the number of destinations will multiply considerably. Williams talked about a wedding chapel and reception hall, a new amphitheater with larger capacity that could draw big-name acts or summer theater to the lake, a wellness center and spa, beach and yacht clubs, rustic cottages, bed and breakfasts and a lodge reminiscent of those in many of the nation's national parks. Board members were wowed by the ideas. Craig Dowdy said he could not think of a single resort like it in the region and thought Williams' plan was comprehensive. "There's something for all sizes of pocketbooks to come and enjoy," he said. John Gibb, another board member and Buford resident, demonstrated how to use a Segway - he has two at home - for some of his fellow board members. He said he is thrilled about the plans and looking forward to playing an active role in the development. "Now we can invest in an exciting process," he said. "We're not just caretakers anymore. We're caregivers." Williams said he is in the midst of doing research about the different plans and that nothing will be finalized until the board approves of it. He expects the results of that research, which will be back in the fall, to solidify what changes people want to the lake and in what order. The presentation, he said, was to give a glimpse of what Lake Lanier could be. "We wanted to raise the shade just a little bit of the window and show what our visions are, what we're thinking," he said. "We want it to have a different feel than it may have now."

Just because he sings "Baby" doesn't mean he has one!
Justin Bieber is adamant -- he didn't father a child with a female fan -- insisting, "I never met the woman."
Bieber is on the defensive -- after a 20-year-old woman filed a paternity suit against him -- claiming he fathered her now four-month-old son after his concert at the Staples Center last October.
"I'd just like to say, basically, that none of those allegations are true," Justin said in a Today Show interview this morning. "I know that I'm going to be a target, but I'm never going to be a victim."
So far -- Bieber's camp says the allegations are completely bogus -- calling the woman's claims "malicious, defamatory and demonstrably false."
