Volunteer FAQ
Is there training required for my volunteer job?
Training is mandatory for course intersection volunteers. Click HERE for the schedule. Many other non-course team volunteers also have training. Click HERE for the schedule. For some other volunteer positions, no training is provided, but volunteers will receive an instruction sheet via email before race weekend.
I'm from out of town ‐ do I have to attend training?Training is required for Course Intersection Team volunteers and all intersection volunteers must pick up their official volunteer shirt and safety vest. We now offer a online training for returning Course Intersection Team volunteers who only need a refresher. View the Course Intersection Team Training page for the dates and times to both train and pick up materials.
To receive access to the online training or further information on your post, contact email@example.com. For other volunteer posts, you will receive an email with instructions prior to your volunteer assignment.
When is the deadline to "volunteer by"?
We hope to fill all volunteer spots by March 30th to allow adequate time to prepare our volunteers. However, as long as volunteer jobs are available, we will keep volunteer registration open.
Why is my course team intersection or other volunteer job not showing up on the list of volunteer jobs?
Jobs not listed on the volunteer page are no longer available.
May I volunteer for more than one volunteer position?
Yes, just as long as the times do not conflict.
How do I volunteer with my friend(s)?
Our most crucial volunteer slots are the Course Intersection Team. Please consider signing up in an area along the course that requires two volunteers. You and your friend should simply register for the same intersection, and you will be together. If the only remaining intersections require just one volunteer, we would prefer you volunteer with your friend, than not volunteer at all. To make these arrangements, contact email@example.com. Or, if you would prefer a different volunteer assignment, simply review the volunteer listing for a job that requires two or more volunteers, and both of you should register for the same job.
How do I volunteer as a group?
Our most crucial volunteer slots are the Course Intersection Team. Please consider signing up in an area along the course. If you are a group of 10 or more, contact our volunteer coordinator at firstname.lastname@example.com. If you have a smaller group, identify an opening from our volunteer listing, and each individual should register.
How do I volunteer to pass out water?
The water stops (hydration stations) are reserved for groups of 30 or more, and all hydration stations for this year are filled. If you are interested in providing a group of 30 volunteers or more for next year's hydration station, email email@example.com.
When should I arrive for my volunteer shift?
Please plan to arrive 15 minutes prior to the start of your volunteer shift. This will allow adequate time to park and walk to the location of your assignment.
Where do I park?
Course Intersection volunteers will receive instructions at training. Volunteers at the Expo and the Stadium should reference this map.
How old do you have to be to volunteer?
All Course Intersection volunteers must be at least 18 years old, because they are responsible for knowing and applying the Rules of the Road and have the maturity and ability to handle and direct others. If under the age of 18, they must be accompanied by an adult. For all other jobs, volunteers should be at least 14 years old and capable of fulfilling the volunteer description independently. All volunteers under 18 must have a parent/guardian complete the registration waiver.
Can my child volunteer with me?
Yes, but please read the description of the specific volunteer assignment, and use your best judgment to decide if your child is capable of assisting with our volunteer team.
What t-shirt size should I order?
The volunteer T-shirts are unisex; however, last year, shirts ran small. If the size you select does not fit you, you will likely be able to exchange it if the other size is available.
Why didn't I receive a confirmation email?
First, check your spam filter. The email was sent from email@example.com. If you still did not receive the confirmation email, please email email@example.com with your first name, last name, and volunteer job. It is likely there is a typo in your email address, and we need to fix it so you can receive training instructions and volunteer details.
If I forgot the details of my volunteer assignment, how do I check what I signed up for?
You can view your volunteer assignments by entering your email address (the same email address that you used for registration) HERE FOR GENERAL VOLUNTEERS or HERE FOR COURSE INTERSECTION VOLUNTEERS.
How do I change/switch my volunteer assignment?
If you would like to move to a different volunteer job, contact email@example.com to switch intersections, or contact firstname.lastname@example.com for all other volunteer assignments.
How do I cancel my volunteer assignment?
If you can no longer complete your volunteer assignment, please contact firstname.lastname@example.com if you are registered for Course Intersection Team, or contact email@example.com for all other volunteer assignments. Please do so ASAP so that a volunteer can be found in your place!
Who signs my service hour sheet?
If you have a sheet/form that needs to be signed to verify your volunteer duties were met, please ask your volunteer coordinator immediately at the completion of your volunteer shift.
What charity does the Christie Clinic Illinois Marathon support?
While running the Christie Clinic Illinois Marathon, many participants actively helped the well-being of their community and their neighbors. Through a combination of participant fundraising and direct donations by the race, the Illinois Marathon supports the community. Read our annual report.

Bauer delivers an emotional ride readers won't soon forget. The novel's setting, a small village where everyone knows everyone, is reminiscent of a cozy mystery, but the story is anything but cozy. There's a murder to be solved, but it's the characters who grab center stage, not the investigation. The story easily holds the reader's attention from start to end, but the somewhat slow pace keeps this very good book from being a great read. This thoughtful tale concludes with a staggering punch.
When Margaret Priddy is murdered, some think it's a blessing. She was a quadriplegic, unable to even speak. This could be a mercy killing or perhaps it's the act of someone who resents the cost of her care. Cop Jonas Holly wants to find out, but detectives from a neighboring town take over. Being shut out of the case embitters Holly because the local people are looking to him to make things right. Stress piles on as he cares for his chronically ill wife, whom he loves dearly, particularly when more people are killed. (SIMON AND SCHUSTER, May, 256 pp., $15.00)

"These cards are printed on a sturdy, textured cardstock and the color is just right (not too bright, not too dark). I'm glad I ordered this design and will purchase again when I run low on cards."
"I wouldn't have believed a card could make people so happy but everyone here was stunned by how great these cards looked. Previously we bought our cards from the big guys and we were so unhappy with the cards. We feel so lucky we finally found Tiny Prints. Outstanding company. We wish all our business suppliers gave us such a great product at such a great price with great customer service!!! We can't wait to get more cards!!! Thanks Tiny Prints!!"
"I have been avoiding making my business card but after seeing tiny prints' personalized options, I was extremely excited to get to use my own illustration for my business card! The pearlized paper adds a beautiful subtle glitz and I totally love the square card. The designers who reviewed my draft and edited my design based on my notes did an awesome job. Thank you, have been referring people and will be reordering!"
"I used this as an invitation to my graduation party in my announcements. I didn't want to invite everyone I sent an announcement to and I also didn't want to send out two cards so I wanted a small card to put inside the envelope with the announcement and this was perfect! I put the text information on the front and was able to add lines and such to add a design. On the back of the card I put one of my senior pictures."
"I love these business cards! They have the perfect touch of simplicity yet are also unique at the same time. I will be proud to give these cards out to friends, relatives, and business professionals. Overall, I'm very pleased with my order! Thank you."

Teen Trips
Private Groups
Kilimanjaro Machame Route 22 Oct 2010
I've just noticed this trip has become guaranteed. I wanted to know who else is going??
I'm travelling with 4 of my friends on this trek and just wanted to introduce myself! I'm really excited about climbing Kili and started to slowly increase walking everywhere... I'm looking even more forward to the trip extension to Zanzibar afterwards! Is anyone else booked on that too?
Hey Kelly - Great to meet you!
Its going to be a new thing for me and my friends too - but we all are really excited!! I am abit nervous about the camping! Have you bought equipment yet? I've just got the boots last November so have wearing them in.
Training is going okay, just trying to increase the walking as much as I can, I know I can do more. What about you?
I am going on this trip too! Doing it with my dad and his friend. Am very excited too sadly am not on the Zanzibar extension.
How is your training going? What sort of experience do you and your friends have of trekking? - I'm pretty novice to this but something I've always wanted to do.
Good to hear from you - sorry for delay in reply but forgot to check this! Training has started....has been mainly running so far but after doing the Reading Half Marathon a few weeks ago I have now turned to more walking - although it's hard to find hills living in London!!!! Where are you based?
Equipment wise I have my boots and a fairly good jacket but am hoping to borrow as much as I can.
Would be great to keep in touch via normal email which I check more frequently (firstname.lastname@example.com)

XO Cites Success in California LMDS Trials
1/14/04, Broadband Wireless Business
XO Communications Inc. issued an announcement that it has conducted successful trials of its broadband wireless access service in San Diego and Irvine, Calif., serving dozens of customers.
As reported in an article by Dan Sweeney in the November/December 2003 issue of Broadband Wireless Business magazine, XO used LMDS fixed wireless technology from Ensemble Communications in its San Diego and Irvine deployments.
"These trials could be a very meaningful breakthrough for XO," said Carl Grivner, XO's CEO. "In that XO can reduce 'last-mile' costs, XO can become even more price competitive than it is today for business customers. Additionally, this will allow XO to compete in the multi-billion dollar last-mile market for carrier customers that now use the local RBOC [regional Bell operating company]."
Additional trials will be needed before a national rollout of the fixed wireless service can be undertaken, according to Grivner.
XO holds fixed wireless spectrum licenses that cover 95 percent of the U.S. population in the top 30 cities.
XO's fixed wireless service offers three times more bandwidth to customers compared with the cost of a traditional dedicated T-1 circuit, according to XO's announcement. Additionally, XO can provide high-speed Internet and Ethernet services to customers in just days, while it would take weeks or months to get such services from an RBOC.
XO's tests of its fixed wireless network showed burstable bandwidth capabilities ranging from 1 Mbps to more than 20 Mbps.
XO offers a complete set of telecom services, addressing local and long-distance voice, data access and Internet access, Web hosting and other communications needs.

in response to fellowtraveleri am also getting the same error from this page
A script on the page "Songza - The music search engine & internet jukebox. Listen. Now." (http://songza.com/) is making Safari unresponsive. Do you want to continue running the script, or stop it?
Klaus1 Nov 19, 2007 4:10 PM
in response to fellowtravelerive just upgraded to the new Safari Beta Version 3.0.3
Can't help asking why?
I would suggest you update to 10.4.11 and get the non-beta Safari 3.0.4 that is included.
Your links work fine for me.
The Endless Void Nov 26, 2007 7:34 AM
in response to Klaus1I'm getting this error as well, making posts on The Matrix Online forums:
If I select editing options in the first few seconds of loading the page, I can insert images, edit text, and do virtually whatever I need to make my post. Any time after that, and the buttons stop being responsive. If I try to type my message without formatting, I can do so, but I get the slow script error every few seconds.
I get none of these errors when using Firefox on the same page, and although the buttons were also broken in safari 2, at least with that version I could access an HTML version of the editor, so I could apply formatting that way.
Safari 3 has a lot of great features, but this slow script error is driving me nuts, and I can't figure out how to disable its constant nagging.
I am currently using Safari 3.0.4 with Tiger 10.4.11.
fellowtraveler Nov 27, 2007 1:49 PM
in response to The Endless Voidglad im not the only one seeing this
ill try upgrading to see if that helps
i just love how someone from mac / safari report hasnt bothered to make any suggestions

I installed the latest Netscape and get no errors
so sorry safari

The Earth, our home, is beginning to look like an immense pile of filth
This is an extract from Pope Francis's encyclical on the environment, Laudato Si. Here are some of the early analyses.
Will Pope Francis Break the Church? [The Atlantic]
"Told this way—conservative Jesuit fights post–Vatican II radicalization, finds himself shunned by left-wing confreres, gets rescued by a John Paul appointee—the story of Francis's rise and fall and rise sounds for all the world like The Making of a Conservative Pope. And indeed, a number of Catholic writers greeted Bergoglio's election—some optimistically, some despairingly—with exactly that interpretation of his past's likely impact on his papacy. But it seems fair to say that this interpretation was mistaken. So how, exactly, did the man who fought bitterly with left-wing Jesuits in the 1970s become the darling of progressive Catholics in the 2010s?"Previously. Previously.

Revolt and Rebellion on the Rio Grande (20:06; 2014) is an experimental animated documentary that briefly describes the Narváez, de Niza, Coronado, and Oñate expeditions en route to an account of Po'pay and the Pueblo Revolt.

A Catholic Showdown Worth Watching
The deep philosophical differences between the two main conservative factions of the Catholic Church, pitting adherents of John Courtney Murray against the followers of Alasdair MacIntyre is the root cause of the mixed messages being put out by the Church on public policy matters.

Pope to offer Indulgences to his Twitter followers
Is Pope Francis a Fraud?
After a right-wing coup crushed the reforms of Vatican II, one scholar says the last two popes are illegitimate. It comes near the end of a thousand-year history of the Vatican's global rise to power, ambiguous flourishing and rapid decline. It also comes after 40 years of internal counterrevolution under the previous two popes, during which a group of hardcore right-wing cardinals have consolidated power in the Curia and stamped out nearly all traces of the 1960s liberal reform agenda of Pope John XXIII and Vatican II. A handful of intellectuals, both inside and outside the church, quietly believe that means Pope Francis isn't a legitimate pope at all.
The Conclave to elect the 266th Pope of the Catholic church has begun
The 115 cardinals under 80 years old, who can vote and can be voted for are now in Conclave. You can watch a Live Stream, mostly a shot of the Sistine Chapel chimney, who apparently is now on Twitter. You can get acquainted with the 2013 Papabili using Wikipedia's List of Papabili.

"Footage of Pope John Paul at an indoor batting cage during his 1987 visit to California"
The butler did it
It's a good story because of the Vatican's proverbial secrecy and intrigue and because of its ambiguity between its role as an international political and economic power and its claim to spiritual and ethical leadership. Mix that with the pedophile priest scandals (none in the Vatican itself so far but plenty of accusations of cover-ups) and not surprisingly, there is good copy for all. [more inside]
Pope Hats
Pope Benedict XVI has revived many dormant style traditions and introduced a few fashion innovations of his own. Also, he often wears fanciful hats. Examples: A Sombrero, A camauro (camel skin hat of red wool or velvet with white ermine), a free baseball cap, a wide brim red cappello romano, (I.E. saturno), a Yarmulke (a little zucchetto), Mitra Pretiosa, Papal Tiara (there are many in existence) and so many more.

After the rumoured murder of John Paul I and the attempts on the life of John Paul II, and following an old, old tradition, an Italian daily has now published a restricted document purporting to warn Benedict XVI of a plot to kill him before the end of this year.
Sex and the Single Sinéad
"So I admire those artists that are actually spiritually concerned. And have the balls to be concerned about that, and not concerned with fuckin' George Bush's dick. It's very hard to sing when you've got someone's dick in your mouth." She shoots a mischievous grin before adding, 'I've tried.'" Sinéad O'Connor on the pope, her music, dating, buying condoms, and everything in between.
Irish stew. Papal hide the pickle.
Irish PM condemns Vatican interference in sex abuse cases. Enda Kenny, the new Taoiseach of Ireland, has scathingly criticized the Vatican, citing the Cloyne Report and a recently-leaked Vatican letter intended to prevent sex abuse cases from going public, despite their public policy of reporting all abuse claims to the authorities. (Similar claims of the Vatican not reporting recent child abuse cases have also been made in the US.) Ireland's Minister for Justice has cited an extensive list of The Church's failures to comply with their policies, and is supporting legislation to make it a crime not to report child abuse claims. The Vatican's envoy was asked to report to Parliament and explain The Church's position on this matter quickly, with the implied threat that they might be forced to testify. Today, the Church, citing "surprise and disappointment at certain excessive reactions" has recalled their envoy. "(This) should be interpreted as an expression of the desire of the Holy See for serious and effective collaboration with the (Irish) Government."
Merry Christmas from the Vatican
Pope's child porn 'normal' claim sparks outrage among victims. Pope Benedict XVI said this week that as recently as the 1970's, pedophilia was "theorised as something fully in conformity with man and even with children," but conceded that in 2010 it's gotten pretty bad, and brought "humiliation" on the church. Understandingly, victims feel differently.

The Pontifical Council for the Promotion of New Evangelisation will (per Archbishop Vincent Nichols,) focus on countries "in which, even though the Christian Gospel has shaped an entire culture," secularism now reigns, in what the Pope termed an "eclipse of a sense of God."

The Easter Surprise
As ongoing investigations into the sexual abuse of children, cover-ups and avoidance of justice climb the hierarchy of the Catholic church to implicate Pope Benedict himself, the head of the Vatican's tribunal has taken the unprecedented step of publicly reinforcing the Pope's status not as father of the church but as a head of state - and thus immune from prosecution.

Catholic Church child sex abuse scandal reaches the top
The Pope was drawn directly into the Roman Catholic sex abuse scandal last night as news emerged of his part in a decision to send a paedophile priest for therapy. The cleric went on to reoffend and was convicted of child abuse but continues to work as a priest in Upper Bavaria. [more inside]

According to Senior Harvard AIDS Prevention Researcher Dr. Edward Green, condoms not only are not helping to prevent the AIDS crisis, but are actually making the problem worse.
Bishop Richard Williamson in his own words
Bishop Richard Williamson, a member of The Society of Saint Pius X, has been making news since his excommunication was lifted by Pope Benedict XVI in January. On January 21, 2009, in a nearly six minute interview Williamson told a television news program in Sweden that "I believe that history is strongly against, is hugely against, six million Jews having been gassed in gas chamber as a deliberate policy" during the Holocaust. In 2001, the bishop wrote "That girls should not be in universities flows from the nature of universities and from the nature of girls: true universities are for ideas, ideas are not for true girls, so true universities are not for true girls." The Vatican is now repudiating the Holocaust denials. And Bishop Williamson has claimed he will reconsider the issue of Nazi gas chambers by reading the book of a former Holocaust doubter.

Both very good.
As for XLR mic inputs, the XLR adapters from BeachTek and juicedLink work fine. They put the audio gain knobs (1 for each channel) in an easier to reach (more useful) place. The Sony HDR-FX1 and HDR-FX1000 are the prosumer siblings to the Z1. If you like Canon, how about the XHA1?
Hi, I'm looking at purchasing a camcordor sometime in the near future. I've narrowed it down between two cameras; the Canon XL2 and the Sone HDV Z1. I've had prior experience with a Canon XL1, and am very comftorable with the camera, but im opting for the XL2 because I want a camer with XLR mic inputs. But I'm also interested in the Sony HDV Z1 because it shoots in H.D. images. I was curious to know what you guys think is the better of the camera. Thanks!

We found them larger and darker, than the Kansas grouse or prairie-chicken; but no less rich and gamey in taste.
"The—the prairie-chicken," said Nancy, to make him feel that he was quite forgiven.
They were famous hunters, and could shoot a deer upon the run, or bring down a prairie-chicken upon the wing.
Roasted duck and prairie-chicken; stewed rabbit and broiled fish fresh out of the lake!
The prairie-chicken is now extinct in many of the Western States where it was once well known.
Grouse and prairie-chicken are carved from the breast when they are large, and quartered or halved when of medium size.
I no longer get heart failure when I hear the whir of a prairie-chicken, but drop my bird before it's out of range.
The prairie-chicken's admirers are numerous, other animals beside man being willing to dine on its plump breast.
The snow-banks are thawing to-day (April 10), and this morning the birds were singing, and a prairie-chicken went boo-o-o-o.
The flying turkey will not shrink, as the prairie-chicken does, when receiving and carrying off lead.

WASHINGTON -- As all good leaders should be, George W. Bush is a positive thinker. So, in private conversation, he exults about how well things have been going in occupied Iraq. It takes a brave soul to look the president of the United States in the eye and talk about the sour taste in Iraq following the stirring military victory of Anglo-American forces, but a few Republicans are doing just that.
Nor is Iraq the only place whose condition worries members of President Bush's own party and even high-ranking officials in his administration. In Afghanistan, U.S. officials are experiencing the frustrations that foreign occupiers have experienced there for more than a century. The roadmap for Israeli-Palestinian peace shows signs of being strangled at birth. And the terrorist bombings in Saudi Arabia open the way for destabilization of the kingdom.
With desperate Democrats trying to seize on all these troubles as the 2004 presidential race gets off to an early start, no Republican is going to be popular at the White House by making rain over Bush's victory parade. Politics aside, however, the outlook is troubled.
-- Iraq: When Defense Under Secretary Douglas Feith testified before the Senate Foreign Relations Committee prior to the war, he offered no clear plan for occupying Iraq. Worried Republicans in Congress still have not heard one. Retired Lt. Gen. Jay Garner, the first American proconsul, departed for Iraq without giving Foreign Relations Chairman Richard Lugar the opportunity to question him about his plans. Ambassador L. Paul Bremer, the new American proconsul, is highly regarded by the Pentagon, State Department and Congress. Still, even he cannot function without a plan.
Growing concern among Republicans was reflected last Wednesday when Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld appeared before the Senate Appropriations Committee to request funds for the occupation of Iraq. The partisan Democratic rant of Sen. Robert Byrd could be written off, but not the intense dialogue between Rumsfeld and a veteran Republican stalwart, Sen. Pete Domenici. Normally not prone to criticizing the Bush administration, Domenici worried "that the victory we claim is not a victory at all." Deputy Defense Secretary Paul Wolfowitz recently conferred privately with Lugar about Iraq, to the chairman's satisfaction. He will go before Lugar's committee this week with Republicans demanding a more coherent explanation of strategy than Rumsfeld's.

But at the end of the day what is inside us is what is important, if we can connect with that and be courageous enough to follow it anything goes and we will be enlightened. It's not easy to connect with our higher self in a strong way. The lengths i have had to goto to get there have been labelled be some as 'extreme'. My path was basically a detox. Which lasted over one year and continues to this day, 2 years later,and really only now am i beginning to see and feel.It's like we have read no doubt countless times, we have to get back to natural ways of living. If we look after our bodies, and for me of course this ultimately led to organic juice, fruits and vegetables, these are very important tools to enhance the spiritual experience and for spiritual growth. I then goto into tonic herbalism and again the herbs are fantastic spiritual growth tools as well as feeding the physical body, it's like if you nourish your physical body deeply it then transcends to another level, the connection to universal understanding starts. Back thousands of years ago the shamans, teh egyptians, the maya would have been spiritually very enlightened i'm sure not using all these methods i describe, but the thing is today's world is very different than it was back then, extremely more toxic both environmentally and spiritually...everything back then was about nature, respect for it...the universe and connection, now everything is about technology and the disconnection from all this true and pure, and herein if humans don't realise this lies our ultimate destruction. I was watching a Jamie Oliver programme last night, he's a UK chef, he is trying to get fast food places in the U.S to cook healthier meals, he was also in the schools trying to teach the kids about healthy eating, he had to jump umpteen barriers to do that in the land of the free, they did not want him filming in the school or cooking for the kids, insane. It was like Nazi Germany bigtime !!! Anyway, he manged eventually to do some education with the kids in these US schools, 17 year olds, asking them questions about where their food comes from... you would not believe some of the answers, the majority thought that milk came from CORN and that cheese came from an imaginary plant. People say America is not dumbing down it's kids, we'll fck me, it was really scary and Oliver was blown away, anyway in my mind he's part of the awakening and probably does'nt even know it.. Now i'm fcked.

EVERYTHING related to the sysem we all 'live' under is completely backwards and i've fucking had enough, i truly honestly can't take it anymore, i will not be corrupted, i will not be pathetically submissive in the face of authority, i will remain true to myself and the universal laws which will stand for all time. I may sound angry but no, i realise that LOVE is the only way, that does not mean you have weakness, love has to be engaged correctly where you throw your entire soul at it to learn and change and evolve. Most people have too much chaos and more importantly doubt about all this in their lives to truly know what i mean, thus it is dismissed as some fantasy, when the truth is NO love is real, love is real power and at the end of the day love is the only force in the universe than can set you free regardless of what they do. Love is everything, it is the key we must always use. Love does'nt mean you don't fight if you are forced to, love permits fighting in cases of self defence, not direct attack without cause but for defence, absolutely. Love in my mind also permits killing if given situation is either you die or them, if they attack you and will not give up... if they know nothing else but death and domination, you engage them and are willing to be merciful but they are not, they you MUST kill them. Got off on a tangent, sorry.

Weekend Rewind: Underdogs steal the show
Two top-five teams looked vulnerable Saturday against teams that appeared to be struggling.
Previously undefeated and top-ranked North Carolina fell at home to Maryland, 82-80. Maryland dropped its first two ACC games and lost to the likes of American and Ohio on its home court.
UCLA also lost at home, falling to rival USC 72-63. The Bruins were riding a nine-game winning streak and were off to a 4-0 start in Pac-10 play. The Trojans lost their first three league games.
Those shocking upsets overshadowed some remarkable developments in the Big East.
West Virginia, Cincinnati and DePaul each moved to 4-2 and into a tie for second place in the league standings after wins on Saturday.
It's a strange sight considering all three of those teams were supposed to be closer to the bottom than the top. The Mountaineers were picked to finish in 10th in the league's preseason media poll, followed by the Blue Demons at 11th and the Bearcats at 12th.
The Bearcats, who were just 2-14 in the Big East last season, pulled off a 62-59 upset over No. 16 Pittsburgh for their third win in four games. It was their second win over a top-25 team (they upset Villanova last week) in eight days.
The Mountaineers are now riding a three-game winning streak after a 69-52 win at South Florida.
The Blue Demons put together a late comeback to beat visiting Rutgers 75-73.
Team of the Weekend: USC
Maryland's upset of North Carolina may have been more surprising, but the Trojans' performance at Pauley Pavilion was more impressive. The Trojans had the second-highest field goal percentage of a Bruin opponent since Ben Howland took over the program five years ago, shooting 60.9 percent (28 of 46). The Trojans were also superb on defense, holding the Bruins to just 33.3 percent (22 of 66).
The Trojans played unselfishly throughout, racking up 20 assists. Much of the credit must go to freshman forward Davon Jefferson, who played his best game yet. Jefferson scored a game-high 25 points on a series of mid-range jumpers and explosive drives to the basket.
What you might have missed
[li] Virginia Tech freshman Jeff Allen was ejected from the Hokies' 81-70 loss to Georgia Tech with 4:32 left for arguing with officials after fouling out. Allen finished with 13 points and six rebounds.
[li] UNC-Asheville 7-foot-7 center Kenny George played just 12.9 seconds against VMI, but scored the winning basket in the Bulldogs' 90-87 triumph in overtime. George came into the game with 12.9 seconds left, immediately caught an inbounds pass and laid it in to put the Bulldogs up 88-87. UNC-Asheville coach Eddie Biedenbach kept George out because he felt the big man needed rest.
[li] Kansas State announced that senior forward David Hoskins will miss the rest of the season with a knee injury. Hoskins, who suffered the injury in the preseason, averaged 14.9 ppg and 5.9 rpg last season.
[li] Eddie Sutton picked up career win No. 799 when San Francisco came away with a 60-59 win at Portland. Sutton came out of retirement to fill in for former Dons coach Jessie Evans on an interim basis. Sutton will look for No. 800 when the Dons travel to Gonzaga on Tuesday.
Breakouts & Breakdowns
Breakout: The NCAA record for most 3-pointers taken and made without a miss in a single game now belongs to a little-known guard from a mid-major conference. George Mason's Dre Smith went 10 of 10 from beyond the arc in the Patriots' 96-75 win over James Madison. Three different players had gone 9-for-9. Smith, a junior from Houston, finished with a career-high 34 points. That was more than three times his season average of 11.1 ppg.
Breakout: Kansas State rolled to a 75-54 upset of Texas A&M despite star Michael Beasley being stuck on the bench for most of the first half with foul trouble. Redshirt freshman Bill Walker carried the Wildcats offense while Beasley was sitting. Walker hit a career-high five 3-pointers (on 10 attempts) and finished with 19 points.
Breakdown: Roy Williams' last-minute Xs and Os. The sight of Tyler Hansbrough missing a 3-pointer as time expired in the Tar Heels' loss to Maryland was a bewildering sight. Hansbrough had missed all three of his attempts from 3-point range heading into the game. There should have been a more concentrated effort to get the ball in the hands of Wayne Ellington or Ty Lawson.
Breakout: Auburn guards Frank Tolbert and Dewayne Reed. Each player in this unheralded duo had the best game of his career against Ole Miss, sparking an 80-77 upset of the Rebels. Tolbert went 9-for-11 from the field (81.8 percent) and scored a career-high 29 points. Reed made four of seven 3-pointers (57.1 percent) and scored a career-high 21 points.
Breakout: Connecticut's offense. Five Huskies scored in double figures in UConn's 89-73 upset of Marquette. That included guard Craig Austrie, who came off the bench to score 15 points. The Huskies attempted a season-high 39 free throws and made 33 (84.6 percent).
Breakdown: Clemson and South Florida's free-throw shooting. Clemson's failures from the charity stripe continue to prove costly. The Tigers made just 10 of 23 (43.5 percent) in a 93-80 loss at Duke. South Florida was even worse in its loss to the Mountaineers, going 4-for-15 (26.6 percent). The main culprit was center Kentrell Gransberry, who was 2-for-11 (18.1 percent).
Breakdown: Syracuse star freshman Donte Greene went to the bench early in the second half against Villanova after picking up his fourth foul. Orange coach Jim Boeheim then gambled, inserting Greene with 9:30 left and the Wildcats up 57-53. Greene barely lasted three minutes, fouling out with 5:25 to go after unwisely trying to take a charge. Without Greene for the final minutes, Syracuse allowed the Wildcats to pull away for an 81-71 win.
Breakout: The most shocking individual performance of the weekend came from Georgia Tech guard Matt Causey, who came off the bench to score a career-high 30 points in 22 minutes in Georgia Tech's 81-70 win over Virginia Tech. Causey, whose previous career high was 11 points, was 7-for-12 (58.3 percent) from 3-point range.
Breakdown: Pittsburgh freshman DeJuan Blair was a non-factor in the Panthers' surprising loss to Cincinnati. Blair, who missed most of the second half due to foul trouble, did not make a single field goal (0-of-2) and was held to a season-low four points and three rebounds.
Scottie Reynolds, Villanova
25 points, six rebounds, four steals in Wildcats' 81-71 win at Syracuse
Set a season-high for steals and went 9-for-10 from the free-throw line.
Stephen Curry, Davidson
37 points, four steals in the Wildcats' 85-58 win over Chattanooga
Curry did most of his damage from 3-point range, knocking down eight of 14 attempts (57.1 percent) from beyond the arc.
Matt Causey, Georgia Tech
30 points in Georgia Tech's 81-70 win over Virginia Tech
Nearly tripled his previous career high (11 points) in just 22 minutes.
Nick Calathes, Florida
24 points, eight rebounds and eight assists in Florida's 81-70 win over Kentucky in overtime
This freshman led the Gators in points, rebounds and assists.
Brook Lopez, Stanford
19 points, 16 rebounds in the Cardinal's 67-52 win over Arizona State
Lopez's double-double sent the Sun Devils to their first Pac-10 loss.

It's an unusually warm November day and I went outside to cut back a huge chrysanthemum plant. Found this visitor under the debris. Threw down my gardening gloves and clippers and ran in the house to get my favorite insect-cam, the Fujifilm F30, one of whose settings I keep at f/8 with the flash on. Also have an exposure compensation of ABOUT minus 1. Have to press the macro button because that can't be programmed to remain set. I never fail to be amazed by the quality of macros I get from this camera. It's such a pleasure to use, despite the fact that it has no optical viewfinder and the lcd is small.

GAME writes:- Overall, this is by far the best Grand Theft Auto game ever
made, which puts it in range of being one of the best games
ever made full stop. Rockstar hasn't quite managed to
deliver the blockbuster story to match its execution
everywhere else, but on the whole you can expect to spend
many dozens of hours being wildly entertained by some of
the best game makers in the world. 10/10
