Nice, but...
Fits well but faded quickly.

Keep looking if you want a higher quality suit.
Got this suit on Christmas day, and it only lasted me about three/four weeks of swim practice; had to throw it out before it was even a month old. When I tried it on the first time, it seemed too small, but seemed to have grown a bit over time in the water. By the time it was worn out, I was almost too small for it; I kept having to pull up the shoulder straps because it had gotten to the point where it was hanging too low. (I had kept a constant weight throughout my time wearing this suit.) Not very durable material, the back strap of the suit had pretty much been eaten off by chlorine. It was so thin back there that you could see flesh through it. The butt/chest also seemed to have stretched out over time, not as bad as the back, though. Although it was comfortable when it had finally stretched out to my size, and didn't cause any rubbing or problems against my skin, I would suggest looking a bit further for a better suit.
Denver, CO
Fit: Feels too small
Just didn't hold up!
I wore this suit probably close to 20 times. I was a brand new adult swimmer this summer and wore it about 3 times a week. It was very comfortable and flattering. But I was shocked to find that it was thinning and the behind area was see through after less than a month and a half of swimming! Next time I will buy polyester.
New Adult Lap Swimmer
I thought this suit was awful! The sizing is really weird and i tried two different sizes and neither worked. I found it very uncomfortable! I returned both and got a different brand suit.
Cincinnati, OH
A great practice suit!
My daughter lives in these suits for practice...EVERYDAY! True to size and covers well for a 12 year old!
Livermore, CA
Nice Suit
Bought a couple for my daughter for practice, but the suit is light and tight enough to wear for prelims at swim meets.
Good for laps
Suit covers body parts appropriately for lap swimming. I've ordered other Nike suits and this one runs larger than the others. It was fine when I tried it on, then once I got it wet, it was a little droopy in areas. I'm 5"7" at 125 pounds and the 34 was at least a size too big. Comfy suit otherwise.
Michelle K.
Fit: Feels too big
Worst Suit I ever wore
i loved the way it fit on my butt, but i don't not recommend this suit at all. it did not fit my bust area at all and i bought a size bigger. there wasn't enough material to cover me and it was very very loose. I sent it back to them. If you have a bigger chest it will not fit you properly. TYR and SPeedo are two brands i plan on sticking to.
Bristol, CT
FINALLY a perfect fit, a perfect color, a perfect suit!
Livermore, CA
This suit only lasted me a month...A MONTH!! I wore it to 2 swim meets and also 2 weeks of practice and the butt is already completely worn out! I love Nike suits, especially their spider backs but this one is awful. I'm warning you, don't get it.
Valencia, CA
All good
Great fit for swimming laps or on paddle board
Westhampton Beach, New York
If you want everyone to see your bum
Good fit, even for me and my long torso, but the fabric on the rear of the suit disintegrated after 6-8 wearings. I expect that after a couple years, but not after that few wearings after I rinse and air my suit out. What gives Nike? Next time my masters team orders a suit, I hope it's a Speedo!
Boston, MA
Looks good
When I first tried on the suit it was a little snug, but it stretched out easily after one wearing. It looks great and I've received a lot of compliments on it. The top doesn't ride down and the the bottoms stayed put. I would buy another one.
Kay E.
Quinton, AL
Not a quality suit
Although we use Nike suits regularly, this suit has not even lasted ONE month of 4x a week use! (and the suit is always washed out after use, so it's not just use in a chlorinated pool, but that this suit just doesn't last)
long straps
the suit is long in the straps so it comes down low on my chest during practice. It shows too much on the side and the material gathers where it comes together in the back.

Great fitness suit!
As a fitness swimmer I want a solid suit that doesn't pinch or drag. This one is great!

Hello All,
Id like to share a mod done to my bike, a Trek 2.1, by my LBS in hopes that it will help others. Several years ago, I suffered a multiple root avulsion from the brachial plexus that left me with diminished use of my left hand. I can maintain control of my bike with my left hand. But, to use the left shifter on my bike, Id have to reach over with my right hand and pull the shifter. This was not optimal and I almost lost control of my bike several times.
My LBS, shout out to Race Pace Bikes in Columbia, MD, suggested adding a Paul Thumbie and new shifter to the right side of my handle bar. I love this setup and it I no longer fret when I need to make those big gear shifts.

SensativeI'm very sensative to negativity. I never understood people. I do now. I'm still distant from most everyone in the world. I want to remain alone. I am not a social person. I can be nice to people who are nice to me. But I don't go looking for conversation, often. I can't relate to people my age. Okay some of them I can.
I was never like people. I was quiet and never understood why they do the things they do. I do now. I guess it's in their nature. I'm still not really like anyone. I just want to get through the day. That's who I am.
I am distant from people because of their desires. I like to be alone and I don't like to share.

This Week in History: February 15th
February 7, 2013
By Ruth Quinn
When the USS Maine blew up in Havana Harbor, Cuba, on 15 February 1898, America was launched into the Spanish American War. This conflict was important in the evolution of Military Intelligence as it marked the Army's first real experimentation into aerial photo surveillance. While balloons had been used for aerial observation during the Civil War, this aerial observation platform was not combined with photography until later in the Nineteenth Century. Arthur Batut, a French photographer, made the first aerial photograph from a kite platform in 1889, and the idea took off. Kites were cheaper, safer, and more portable than balloons. They provided a whole new dimension to photographs, offering a view on the world from a perspective that had not been seen before.
How did it work? The cameras used shutters which were triggered by clock devices or fuses. They were held close to the kite and an altimeter would record the altitude of the kite when the picture was taken, which would make it possible to scale the image. Timing was controlled by a slow-burning fuse that was lit when the kite was launched; after the picture was taken a white flag was dropped and the kite was reeled in.
The Army began to experiment with aerial photography in the 1890s, hanging a camera from a large kite. This particular technique was not of lasting use, but the experiment sparked renewed interest in observation balloons -- for the first time since the Civil War. On July 30, 1909, Lieutenant Benjamin D. Foulois successfully completed a 10-mile round-trip qualifying flight with Orville Wright, the first military flight in US history. On August 2, 1909, the Signal Corps purchased the Wright Flyer for $30,000 and redesignated the airplane Signal Corps Airplane No. 1. By 1916's Punitive Expedition into Mexico, the Army was able to field the First Aero Squadron, commanded by none other than Major Foulois. The invention of the airplane and the exciting new possibilities of aerial photography, with its humble beginnings in balloons and on kites, would change Army Imagery Intelligence forever.

JACK'S SMACK: Royals' 'dynamic pricing' is dynamic rip-off
KANSAS CITY, Mo. - The Royals call it "dynamic pricing," their fans are calling it a dynamic rip-off.
The Royals could hardly have a better draw than the Cardinals and now-postponed Yankees in the same home stand.
It's one of several times each season the Royals pump-up ticket prices when high profile teams come to town.
What they've done this time borders on ticket gouging and has left a lot of empty seats out there.
The five games through Sunday against the Cardinals and Yankees are averaging less than 25,000 a game.
That's somewhere in the neighborhood of about 65 percent capacity at Kauffman Stadium which seats about 38,000.
A fan writes, "I went to the Astros game for $60. The same seat for the Cardinals $149. It's ridiculous."
And remember, that's per seat. How many of you go to a game by yourself?
Another writes, "When you increase prices above what the public is willing to pay, people stay home."
Another fan suggests, "They won 86 games and think we should give them a parade."
A dugout box seat for the Cardinals game Monday night is $122. The same seat for the Indians Tuesday night is just $64 bucks.
The Royals might be playing their best baseball of the season right now.
The empty seats send a clear message: don't jack-up those ticket prices on us. You'd better win something first or at least sell out the joint.
Oh by the way, next time the Astros or Marlins come to town, how bout discounting those same tickets by at least 50 percent. You owe us that.
That's Jack's Smack.

Detectives arrested the the 36-year-old Roseville resident Monday, two days after Placer County sheriff's deputies discovered three shooting victims at a Loomis residence. The three victims were identified as Nanette Florance, John Camara and Lawrence Fay. Baker is to be arraigned in Placer Superior Court on counts of murder, possession of a silencer, and rearrest on probation. Lt. Mark Reed said Baker knew the victims but a motive for the killings is not being released at this time. Baker is being held without bail at the Placer County Jail in North Auburn. He'll be arraigned at 1 p.m. in the jail courtroom. - Gus Thomson

The DeKalb County business community and greater Lithonia community are remembering Angela Garrett for her dedication and work to make the community better.
Ms. Garrett, former president of the Greater Lithonia Chamber of Commerce and a well-known financial business consultant, passed away Feb. 12 after a courageous battle with breast cancer. She was 57.
"I was extremely saddened to hear Angela had passed away. I appreciate all of the work she had done as my predecessor. She will be greatly missed," said Doreen Carter, Chamber president.
Ms. Garrett played a vital role in the progress of the Chamber. She was employed as a Compliance and Management System Representative at IMS Electronics Recycling. Ms. Garrett was an independent financial consultant with AFG Strategic Planning Group. She started her own firm in February, 2008 after working with Edward Jones in 2005 as a financial advisor with clients in Lithonia.

ATLANTA—Thousands of people from across the country are remembering the Rev. Dr. George Moore, who served as senior pastor for 41 years of the historic Saint Philip African Methodist Episcopal Church in Atlanta.
An avalanche of condolences flooded social media as news spread that the ailing, well-known A.M.E. giant had transitioned on Feb. 8. The hospitalized retired pastor was surrounded by family members when he passed, those close to him said. He was 79.
A crowd is expected to celebrate Rev. Moore's life and legacy. Church officials say 5,000 programs have been printed for his homegoing, which will be held at St. Philip A.M.E. Church on Valentine's Day.
Family members said they chose Feb. 14 to lay Rev. Moore to rest because of his profound love for Jesus Christ, his family and the Kingdom of God.
The Rev. Dr. William D. Watley, who was appointed to take the helm of St. Phillip A.M.E. in May 2011 after Rev. Moore retired, called his friend a "good shepherd."
"Dr. Moore was a good shepherd, a legend, an icon. He was an extraordinary pastor who had a great vision for St. Philip. He was a trailblazer in developing ministries to meet the needs...

Allison "Al" Edward Venable, the city of Lithonia's first black mayor, is being remembered as an unsung hero. He died on Jan. 12 of natural causes. He was 75.
Whether marching with Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. or planning programs at his church, Mr. Venable didn't mind working behind the scenes to make things happen. That wasn't easy considering that in 1973, he became the first black member of the Lithonia City Council. In 1984, he became the first black mayor of Lithonia. His political work extended beyond the city limits. Mr. Venable also served as president of the Georgia Municipal Association for the Fourth District.
"He was a wonderful person. When we were fighting the medical waste incinerator in the city, he never backed down. He told us to keep fighting and the city would have our backs. He always had your back," said Sandi Morris, a long-time Lithonia resident and retired teacher.
Mr. Venable served three years in the U.S. Marine Corps and then worked for Lithonia Lighting for more than 40 years.
When he wasn't standing up for justice or sharing his knowledge of Lithonia, Mr. Venable enjoyed sharing his musical talents. He grew up playing the...

Longtime educator John Willie Walker, who made history in Rockdale County as a trailblazer and was known for his civic work in Atlanta, died Friday, Jan. 2. He was 81.
Mr. Walker's passing was recognized by Atlanta City Councilmember C.T. Martin, who said Mr. Walker was one of the greatest educators in the community, touching the lives of many youths through a wide array of civic organizations in which he was involved.
"I was deeply saddened to learn of John Walker's passing. He was one of the greatest educators in our community," said Martin. "He had a true passion for the profession and he realized the rewards were greater career could offer. He was also a man who supported so many community causes in Adamsville over the years. Yet his greatest contribution will be the knowledge and the ever quest for greater knowledge that he instilled in so many of our youth."
Affectionately known as "Sonny," Mr. Walker was born Aug. 20, 1933 in rural Jefferson, Georgia. He attended the public schools in Atlanta, finishing Booker T. Washington High School in 1952. He served in the U.S. Army for two years prior to attending college.
On an academic scholarship, he...

Lucile Smith Lamar, a longtime resident of Rockdale County, passed away on Dec. 16 after a long illness. She was 89.
For over three decades, Mrs. Lamar worked with Dr. Joseph Brown, the man known in Rockdale as the "baby doctor." Mrs. Lamar left a legacy as a licensed practical nurse who offered a comforting voice and steady hands for expectant women.
"She was a mild-mannered person who was well-liked and well-respected by the community. She was a gentle woman who always wanted to help people," said her daughter, Josephine Lamar of Lithonia.
Mrs. Lamar was raised in Washington, GA and moved to Rockdale after marrying Jodie Lamar, who preceded her in death. She went to work for Dr. Brown around 1943 after moving to Rockdale from Washington, GA.
Her grandson, Joey Lamar, recounted how his grandmother took great pride in her work and sometimes dealing with derogatory remarks.
"There were times when she was called the "N" word and she did not let it faze her one bit. She told me that she had a lot of responsibility as a nurse. She often deposited the money for the office so she knew...

The City of Lithonia is mourning the death of Elizabeth "Libby" Mitchell, who served more than three decades on the Lithonia City Council. She died on Dec. 3 after being ill. She was 93.
"Libby was one of the most fun, loving, and entertaining people from my childhood and adult life," said long-time Lithonia resident Kay Siler. "She spoke her mind and I cherished her for that."
Sandi Morris, who has been active in the Lithonia community, said the former city council woman served on the council for 35 years and was always straight to the point on issues in Lithonia.
"She spoke her mind and you loved her for it. She was somebody who really loved her city. I would stop by her house for a minute and end up talking to her for hours about Lithonia and local politics," said Morris, adding that she will especially miss her during the holiday season. "Every year, she would invite me over to watch and help her with Christmas decorations. "Libby" was loved by all and the city will definitely miss her one-of-a kind personality and wit."
Lithonia City Council member Darold Honore, who also served as mayor...

Atlanta is mourning the loss of Herman J. Russell, a trailblazer who broke racial barriers and earned a reputation not only as one of Atlanta's most successful business leaders but one of America's icons.
Mr. Russell passed away on Nov. 15 after a brief illness. He was 83, one month shy of turning 84.
"He made his transition in a peaceful way," Michael Russell, his youngest son said in a statement released by the family. "We know he's at rest."
Mr. Russell was the founder and retired CEO of H.J. Russell & Co., a construction and real estate company he founded in 1957 and grew into one of the largest minority-owned companies in the country. After Mr. Russell retired in 2003, he named his son, Michael, as CEO of the company.
Atlanta Mayor Kasim Reed called H.J. Russell one of the greatest heroes of the Civil Rights Movement, a pioneer who paved the way for African Americans.
"No words can express the depth of our sorrow and nothing will ever fill the void created by the passing of Mr. Herman J. Russell," Reed said in a statement. "As the founder of one of America's most successful construction and...

Mrs. Johnson, who was a homemaker, had five daughters and four sons, Dr. Johnson said. Her funeral will be held at Friendship Baptist Church in Crawfordville, Georgia....
1941 – 2014
Harry West, former executive director of the Atlanta Regional Commission (1973 to 2000), died Monday, July 14 at Emory University Hospital from a serious lung infection.
Mr. West was the longest-serving executive director in ARC's history and is credited with building stronger ties among community leaders and fostering a regional approach to tackling metro Atlanta's most challenging issues. He was 72.
"Harry West's legacy to the Atlanta Regional Commission and to the Atlanta region is immeasurable," said Doug Hooker, current ARC executive director. "He developed programs and created a sense of regional connectedness, which still reverberate positively today. More importantly, he had a vision, a dedication, and a high set of standards, which will continue to propel metro Atlanta far into the future."
Among his many accomplishments, Mr. West aggressively pursued efforts to ensure adequate water resources for the Atlanta region, as well as protection for the Chattahoochee River corridor. He conceived and launched the Regional Leadership Institute in 1991, which has graduated some 1,500 leaders from the immersion program on key regional issues. Mr. West also launched the annual LINK city visits program (Leadership, Involvement, Knowledge and Networking) to learn how others...
Some knew him as a police chief, others as a public safety director. In both capacity's, Stone Mountain's Robert "Bobby" Burgess, Sr. was a well-respected public servant who will always be remembered for his 45 years of serving DeKalb County. He died June 6 of natural causes. He was 83.
Said DeKalb's Interim CEO Lee May in a statement: "Bobby Burgess was a good man whose life was guided by a deep and abiding faith and a commitment to public service. His incredible 45 years in DeKalb County spanned five decade. He will be greatly missed by all of us."
Former CEO Vernon Jones thanked Bobby Burgess for his service, saying Burgess was a mentor.
"Another one of Georgia's tallest pines has fallen. As the Chief Executive Officer of DeKalb County, I had the honor to serve with Bobby Burgess during his final years as a public servant. He was my police chief, my public safety director, and a mentor," said Jones. "He (Bobby) was a policeman's policeman and a police chief's chief. Bobby Burgess was a great American and I thanked him for his service by having the DeKalb County Police Headquarters named the Bobby Burgess...

32TEN Studios Announces New Projects
San Rafael, CA –
Practical and visual effects company 32TEN Studios recently completed projects for technology developer Symantec and online VFX school FXPhD.
For Symantec, 32TEN designed and built a practical prop "Data Center," which is seen in an online 60-second promo spot. In the spot, the Data Center model is seen being hurled off a launch pad on top of the 18-story San Jose City Hall building and smashing into pieces on the sidewalk. This IDC Technology Spotlight video discussed the growth of Linux in enterprises, and Symantec's role in helping it become a resilient and agile platform.
"There is no one in the Bay Area other than the FX team at 32TEN that could have pulled of this stunt safely and effectively," said GB Films' Andy Hill, director of the Symantec spot. GB Films was the spot's producer.
In addition, 32TEN also recently worked on a three-day session for FXPhD, a subscription-based website offering online training for post production, visual effects, and motion graphics. At 32TEN, the FXPhD team first discussed in pre-production matching an actor on fire, and then the 32TEN Team assembled a highly innovative rig that offered a few options and a great looking element that the FXPhD team could use to start test-comping into a shot.
"I cannot say enough about how impressive the team at 32TEN is – wow," said Mike Seymour, Co-Founder of FXPhD. "Of course the 32TEN team comes from the ILM Model shop. You would be a fool to not think any shoot with this ex-ILM crew would not be awesome, but on set – with all the complexity of filming for FXPhD, with some 20 attendees – and the complexity of providing teaching and educational focus to them, this crew has just blown through shots."

The Arcane Archer came up in another thread. As a prestige class that's become sad and pathetic since the update from 3.0 to 3.5, I feel sorry for it, and decided I wanted to see if I could give it back some of the kick it used to have. So, for your perusal, my updated Arcane Archer.
Base Attack Bonus: +6
Feats: Point Blank Shot, Precise Shot
Spells: Must be able to cast spells of at least 1st level.
Class Skills: Balance, Concentration, Craft, Handle Animal, Hide, Jump, Knowledge (Arcana), Knowledge (Religion), Knowledge (Psionics), Knowledge (Nature), Listen, Move Silently, Profession, Ride, Search, Spellcraft, Spot, Tumble
Skill Points per level: 4 + Intelligence modifier
Hit Dice: D6
Spellcasting - At every level except levels 1 and 6, the character gains new spells per day (and spells known, if applicable) as if he had also gained a level in whatever spellcasting class he belonged to before he added the prestige class level. He does not, however, gain any other benefit a character of that class would have gained. If a character had more than one spellcasting class before he became an arcane archer, he must decide to which class he adds each level of arcane archer for the purpose of determining spells per day and spells known.
Enhance Arrow - At 1st level, every nonmagical arrow an arcane archer nocks and lets fly becomes magical, gaining a +1 enhancement bonus. Unlike magic weapons created by normal means, the archer need not spend experience points or gold pieces to accomplish this task. However, an archer's magic arrows only function for him. For every two levels the character advances past 1st level in the prestige class, the magic arrows she creates gain +1 greater potency (+1 at 1st level, +2 at 3rd level, +3 at 5th level, +4 at 7th level, and +5 at 9th level). The enhancement bonus granted by this ability stacks with the enhancement bonus granted by a magical or psionic weapon.
Imbue Arrow - At second level, an arcane archer can use a standard action to cast any area or touch spell he knows and deliver the spell through an arrow with a ranged attack. Casting a spell in this manner does not provoke an attack of opportunity, though firing the arrow still does. The spell must have a casting time of 1 standard action or less. When an arrow imbued with an area spell is fired, the spell's area is centered on where the arrow lands, even if the spell could normally be centered only on the caster. If an attack made with an imbued arrow holding a touch spell is successful, the attack deals damage normally, then the effect of the spell is resolved.
This ability allows the archer to use the bow's range rather than the spell's range. It takes a standard action to cast the spell and fire the arrow. The arrow must be fired in the round the spell is cast, or the spell is wasted.
Seeker Arrows - At fourth level, an arcane archer's arrows negate cover and concealment. The archer can launch his arrows at a target known to her within range, and the arrows travel to the target, even around corners. Only an unavoidable obstacle or the limit of the arrow's range prevents the arrows' flight.
Split Arrows - At 6th level, an arcane archer's arrows multiply in mid-air. Each arrow shot by the archer splits into an identical arrow, with the enhancements. This splitting effect does not duplicate the effects of Imbue Arrow or any similar effects that impart spells onto your arrows. Each new missile strikes the same target as the original it was split from, but uses a separate attack roll.
Arrow of Death - At 8th level, an arcane archer can create an arrow of death that forces the target, if damaged by the arrow's attack, to make a DC 15 + 1/2 Arcane Archer level + 1/2 BAB Fortitude save or be slain immediately. It takes one day to make an arrow of death, and the arrow only functions for the arcane archer who created it. The arrow of death lasts no longer than one year, and the archer can only have one such arrow in existence at a time. An Arrow of Death may duplicated by the Split Arrows class feature, or any similar effect.
Improved Imbue Arrow - At 10th level, an arcane archer may imbue multiple arrows with a single touch spell he knows. Casting a spell in this manner is a swift action and does not provoke an attack of opportunity, though firing the arrows still do. The spell must have a casting time of 1 standard action or less. The spell remains charged on the archer's hand, imbuing each arrow he shoots until the beginning of his next turn, whereupon the energies will dissipate. If an attack made with an imbued arrow holding a touch spell is successful, the attack deals damage normally, then the effect of the spell is resolved.
This ability allows the archer to use the bow's range rather than the spell's range. The spell held with this ability may not be cast as a normal spell, and may only be cast by firing arrows imbued with the energy. Arrows enhanced by this ability do not impart their spell effect onto duplicate arrows that are created through the Split Arrows Arcane Archer ability, or any similar effect.
Not bad. I'd feel the need to include that the seeker will also ignore that penalty to shooting a target when it's in melee with your allies. And negate such things as the attacker being unable to actually see the target (invisible, blindness, etc) so long as the archer can still sense the target via other means, and identify the correct location (via really good listen checks, detect magic, or what have you).
Also- is a fort. save really the one the archer needs? Most of its abilities are focussed on distance attacks. Reflex and Will are usually what keep you alive at range.
Include an option for the archer, as a full action, to take their move action and attack with no penalties. I think there's a feat for that somewhere. At higher levels, have this include movement that normally wouldn't allow such things- like swimming or spiderclimb. Since it's an elven focussed class and I really like the idea of elven wilderness surpremacy, and that would give this class that feature.
And the feats you're thinking of are Manyshot and Greater Manyshot.
Looks better than the original, that's for sure.
I've spoilerblocked my breakdown, so if you feel like sitting through my ramblings, feel free, and if you can't be arsed it's not forced upon you.
1- Right. You can see how often I play archers.
2- For the most part. But this is D&D. Do *not* leave room between RAI and RAW if avoidable. Specify. Specify like a lawyer.
3- Eh. We'll see what others think. I still don't feel fort is the useful feat for them.
4- I know. But it'd be nice to have the "run and shoot" option.
5- Right. It's not elf-only (and it shouldn't be). But still is a cool feature that fits in with the elven heritage of the class.
I find myself agreeing entirely with SageBahamut's critique.
Especially in regards to the fort and will saves.
Also, in regards to imbue arrow.. what about meta-magic feats?
Vox - What about them? The ability doesn't seem to be limited by spell level. Doesn't comment on them either way. I imagine imbuing a Widened spell would be sort of silly. But... what's your question?
Here's a suggestion on the spit/imbue effect (like the death arrow). "If the enchantment effect on an arrow requires a savings throw, the target only makes one save and applies it to the effect of both arrows."
That'll stop abuses of a lot more than just that little death arrow. There's a lot of "save vs suck/death" out there. Forcing a target to make two of them per hit is just abusive.
Well.. I can't think of anything off the top of my that the meta-magic would do to specifically break the ability.
However, I was curious if anyone looked into it.
Responses in blue. Please keep in mind that these are just my thoughts, and are not meant as a personal attack against anybody's opinions.

From three-time Edgar® Award winner T. Jefferson Parker comes the explosive finale in his Charlie Hood series, which will bring together the destinies of three men caught between light and darkness....
Los Angeles County sheriff's deputy Charlie Hood is attached to the ATF, working undercover on the illegal arms trade that flows across the U.S.-Mexico border. The sparkle of the diamond fillings he wears in his left canine distracts his task force targets and is often the first step toward a long stay behind bars.
Meanwhile, Bradley Jones—sheriff's deputy, employee of the Baja Cartel, and son of the love of Charlie's life—is expecting a son of his own. Bradley, supposedly descended from the famed Mexican outlaw Joaquin Murrieta, has reaped the rewards of his treachery, keeping a hoard of cash and jewelry in a secret lair on his property.
Charlie knows Bradley's secrets, all of them; the question is what he'll do with the information. But he still has to contend with the devilish Mike Finnegan, who flits in and out of the lives of his friends, knows things he should not know, is seemingly immortal, and delights in the havoc he wreaks in the orbits of everyone he touches....
All three are about to meet. But all will not survive....

Read an Excerpt
Rovanna strode into the convenience store by the dawn's early light. As usual he carried his Louisville Slugger, the barrel of it cupped in his right palm and the handle resting on his shoulder like a rifle. His back was straight and his gait purposeful. He wore cargo shorts, a black T-shirt, slip-on sneakers in a red-and-black-checked pattern. His hair was a white thatch and he could have easily been mistaken for a surfer, though he had never learned to swim. He bought his coffee and the Iraqi clerk handed him his change with a soft thank-you, "Shukran."
"Shukran jazeelan," Rovanna said.
He walked a different route home, noting the Granite Hills emerging into the morning around him and the light poles of the high school stadium growing staunch against the sky. More closely he watched the windows and doors around him because Anbar teaches you to watch windows and doors. It was a weekday in El Cajon, east of bustling San Diego, and the neighborhood had that just-getting started hum.
He came to his street, a narrow avenue of older homes, spiked fences, and grated windows. Some of the trees had grown large. The pit bull that lived in the yellow ranch house growled murderously at him and Rovanna took a dog biscuit from his pocket. He cocked his elbow and flicked it as he might a dart, the biscuit arching over the wrought-iron lances of the fence. The dog fell heavily upon it.
Rovanna lived in a small guesthouse behind a sagging larger home. He walked along the gravel driveway that led to his house, passing his small blue Ford, which was dirty and plastered with large sycamore leaves. He stopped and studied the front door and the windows on either side of it, their plastic blinds drawn. At the porch he turned left as always, rounded the side yard, passed the bedroom and the water meter and the sun-hungry hydrangeas, then went right along the padlocked toolshed and the sliding glass door with the flannel bedsheet nailed inside. He turned the corner and stepped back onto the porch.
Inside he patiently checked each room, then sat on the Salvation Army couch with the Louisville Slugger propped handle-up beside him. The bat was wooden, clean, and waxed, and it shone slightly in the poor light. His front door was half open and he drank his coffee while he watched the light grow through the screen door. It was winter and the towering sycamore in the yard between the two houses was nearly naked, only a few big leaves still hanging on to the branches on this cool morning. The space heater glowed in its corner. There were paperback thrillers in shelves along the walls and newspapers and magazines piled on the floor, all paled by dust.
Rovanna watched the man come around the side of the main house out front and start up the gravel drive toward him. He carried what looked like a medical kit and he moved as if he was familiar with the property. He wore a gray fedora and a navy suit buttoned over a white shirt and a light blue tie. Rovanna heard the gravel crunching, then the thud of shoes on his front porch. The man stood framed by the screen door and raised his fist to knock.
"That's exactly far enough," said Rovanna.
"I'm Stren, consulting physician for the Superior Court in San Diego. I hope you have a minute."
"For what?"
"I'm reviewing your Firearms Rights Restoration application and I have some questions."
"You shouldn't have taken away my guns to begin with."
"I didn't take away your guns. The court did."
"I didn't hurt anybody."
"Not seriously. Though quite frankly, the court was also concerned with you hurting yourself. The psychiatric hold was for your protection, as well as the safety of others."
"So do I get them back or not?"
"You need to answer some questions. May I come in?"
Rovanna took the bat by its handle and moved across the small room. He unlatched the screen door and backed away. The doctor stepped inside and removed his hat. Stren was a small man with a ruddy complexion, short black hair, and eyes the same blue as his as his necktie and pocket square. His eyeglass frames were black and oversize and from certain angles the lenses magnified his eyes, such as now when he looked at the bat. He was familiar but Rovanna couldn't place him. Stren sat on the plaid, misshapen couch and set his medical bag beside him, then his hat atop the bag. He crossed his legs and looked around the room as if he were confirming, not discovering. From a breast pocket of his suit coat Stren brought a trim black notebook and a shiny black pen, which he uncapped and readied. Rovanna sat across from the sofa in a white resin lawn chair. There was an oddly low coffee table between the two men, littered with fast-food wrappers and a half-full plastic gallon bottle of vodka.
"How have you been?" The doctor's voice was resonant in the small room. He offered a compulsory smile and studied Rovanna with lively blue eyes.
"I'm taking the meds. I'm on full disability. I eat well enough. I stay home mostly. I walk around the neighborhood for exercise."
"With the bat?"
"I always have the bat. It's not as good as a gun but it's something for protection."
Stren nodded and wrote something down. "Tramadol and Zoloft?"
"They're in the bathroom if you want to see."
"Please do bring them out."
In the bathroom Rovanna grabbed the two bottles in one hand and brought them back to the doctor and dropped them with a rattle onto the doctor's lap. Stren lifted them one at a time, positioned the labels, and wrote in his notebook. "How much alcohol do you drink?"
"Two vodkas per day. Maximum. It's not a problem."
"What size?"
"The medium-size cups with superheroes they give out at Mr. Burger. Lots of grapefruit juice and ice."
Stren looked intently at the vodka then at Rovanna. "Voices?" he asked.
Rovanna suddenly felt angry and ashamed. These emotions could hit fast and they almost always arrived together. The anger felt like a mug of scalding black ink upended inside his brainpan. The shame just made him want to become very small. "No."
"Dr. Webb at Naval said you were hearing voices from radios, addressing you and you only. When the radios were turned off."
"I don't have radios anymore."
"Dr. Webb said you considered these voices to be your friends. So, that is what I am asking about. Voices speaking only to you. 'Friends,' as you called them."
Rovanna took a deep breath and exhaled slowly. "I got rid of them. I took the radios to the Salvation Army. All of them. Look around."
But Stren only let his gaze wander Rovanna's face. "Or did you put them somewhere you could easily get to—say, in the garage, or in the toolshed out back?"
"I did not."
"May I look?"
"Fuck yourself. Okay. So they're in the shed. I locked them in there so I wouldn't have to hear them. Maybe you should take them away, too."
"Let's move on."
Rovanna felt his anger steal away, then circle back. "You say you work for the court? Where's your ID?"
Stren reached into his jacket pocket and removed an envelope with a county seal on it. Rovanna took and opened it. Inside was a sheet of San Diego Superior Court letterhead stating that the undersigned was in the employ of the court and as such would be granted all rights and courtesies due an officer of said court. The seal on the sheet was embossed. At the bottom were the scrawled signature of Hon. Betsy Lambeth and the neatly composed signature of Dr. Todd Stren.
"You can't be a real doctor with a signature like that," said Rovanna. His anger was abandoning him. He handed the envelope and letter to Stren, who slipped them back into his pocket. "Why would Dr. Webb tell you those personal things about me?"
"It's my job to recommend whether you get your guns back or not. I'm the consulting psychiatrist. Dr. Webb and I work together and share medical information. He's a big fan of yours, Lonnie. He believes in you."
At the sound of his name, Lonnie Rovanna felt the familiar knot form deep down in his throat. It was painful and he knew it well. It was the aggregate of all his sorrows and regrets, a lifetime of bad actions and misdeeds large and small— everything he wanted to be rid of, or at least forgiven for. All of these, compounded into a hard sedimentary lump. Shame. Even something so minor could summon these things out and bring them together: a kind word, a smile, a small gesture. He had no idea Dr. Webb was a big fan of his. He sat forward and rested his elbows on his knees and looked down at the beaten braided rug.
"Do you still hear demons in the walls?"
"Have you ever seen one?"
"No, sir."
"Do the men with similar faces still follow you when you walk your neighborhood?"
The knot in his throat was painful now so Rovanna raised his head and took another deep breath. Why had Webb revealed these things about him? Why had the good doctor sold him out to this soulless judicial bureaucrat? The Identical Men all had the same face and the same clothes and the only reason he knew that there were five of them was because he'd actually seen them together, trailing him down the streets and sidewalks, in the park, and even, occasionally, waiting for him right here in the living room of his own home. Five men. Identical clothing. Same face. The quints from Washington, D.C. Maybe Langley. Or maybe hell itself. "Yes," he said softly.
"Do you consider yourself dangerous to yourself or others?"
"Absolutely not."
"Do you consider yourself sane?"
"Pretty much so, yes."
"I see that your larynx has constricted. I know this can be painful. And there are tears ready to come out. Are you ashamed?"
"Yes." Rovanna lowered his head and dropped his gaze to the floor again. His tears came faster than he could wipe them away, hot drops born of the aching knot in his throat, tapping on the old rug and his canvas sneakers.
"Now, this is important, Lon. I need to ask you about the body-guarding. I understand that early last year you were hired to protect Congressman Scott Freeman."
At the word Freeman, Rovanna shivered. After a long minute his tears finally stopped and the clench in his neck relaxed a little. Now his shame was beginning to leave him, too. Without anger and shame he felt abandoned and uncontrollable, like a boat without crew or rudder. "He hired me. I protected him a few times. I'm not licensed but I'm good at it because of my military training and experience. When my firearms were taken away I couldn't get more jobs with him. That's one of the main reasons I need to get my guns back."
"How many were confiscated?"
"Of what type?"
"Handguns and legal assault-style semiautomatic rifles."
"For work as a bodyguard?"
"To protect Representative Freeman."
Stren sat forward. "When was the last time you saw him in person?"
"After the last big rain."
"Three weeks ago, then. Late January."
"He was at a rally in El Centro," said Rovanna.
"And you had no gun?"
"No. They'd been taken. But I wasn't hired to protect in El Centro."
"Yet you were present. Do you have a personal relationship with Representative Freeman?"
"No, only as a politician. I never talk to him except about security. His staff, I mean. Obviously. I talk to his staff."
The doctor was quiet for a while. When Rovanna looked at him Stren was neither writing nor looking at anything determinate, just gazing out through the screen door, his magnified pupils large and black, gorging on the new morning light.
"Then why did you go to the rally, if not to protect him?" asked Stren.
Now Rovanna was silent for a long moment. "I . . . I thought it would be good to be seen."
"By him?"
"Yes. As a future potential bodyguard. A bodyguard again, I mean."
Stren sat back. "I'm confused about something here, Lonnie. Scott Freeman does indeed represent your district, the fifty-fourth, which is the southeasternmost district in the state. He's a proponent of immigration reform, tougher gun-control laws, and decriminalizing marijuana. He's considered very liberal. Some say radical. His recent book has raised the ire of the right-wing, Tea Party types."
"So, Dr. Webb tells me that you are precisely that type. You are vehemently against everything Scott Freeman stands for. Yet Mr. Freeman hires you to carry a gun, and stand close by and protect him."
Rovanna rubbed his hands together then set each one palm down on a knee. "I don't mix politics and business."
"Everyone does. Tell me, have you been hired to guard other politicians, or perhaps celebrities of another kind? Actors? Athletes?"
"No. Scott Freeman was my first job. But I know there are other people who need me. That's why I need my guns back. Personal security is a growing business. I want it to be my career. I want to get a letter of recommendation from him someday. So I can protect other people."
Stren looked at Rovanna, then wrote something down and underlined it. "Have you ever dreamed of using one of your guns to save the life of Representative Freeman?"
A ripple of embarrassment went through Rovanna, then indignation. He looked through the screen door to the sycamore tree. A big leaf fell. It came down faster than Rovanna expected it would, an old leaf, folded in, hugging itself on the way down. "No one can control their dreams."
"Have you ever imagined using a gun on him?"
"I've imagined worse things than that. But you can't control your imagination either."
"Have you ever just wanted to shoot him, Lon?"
"I really don't like you using my first name. It's for friends and you're no friend of mine."
"Isn't Representative Freeman due to make a public appearance in the near future?"
"Later this month. A Sunday. He's signing autographs at the Alternative Book Fair in San Diego."
Stren pursed his lips and nodded curtly, then he flipped his notebook shut and capped the pen and returned them both to his coat pocket. He leaned elbows to knees and looked at Rovanna. "Thank you for your time and honesty. I'll be writing my letter of recommendation later today. Of course, the final decision will be left to one of the judges and this could take some time. The courts are terribly backed up at the superior level."
"What are you going to say?"
"I haven't decided. But, in the meantime . . ."
The doctor straightened, set his hat on his head, tilted it back at a casual angle, then brought his black leather medical bag to his lap and opened it. He held out the sides with both hands and stared down into it for a long moment, then reached in. Rovanna expected a syringe and vial, or maybe a sample packet for a new prescription drug, or maybe a form to sign. Or one of the dread orbitoclasts used in lobotomies. He even imagined a cobra, because, just as he had said, he could not control his imagination, and a cobra had just crawled into his mind.
Instead Stren pulled a firearm from the bag, then set the bag aside. He balanced the gun in his small hands, framing it like a salesman for Rovanna to behold. It looked like a common, medium-size, semiautomatic handgun, although Rovanna had never seen one exactly like it. The finish was stainless and the grips were checked black polymer, and it had a slightly plump and heavy look.
"What is it?"
"The Love Thirty-two."
"The manufacturer was the old Orange County outfit, Pace Arms."
"I never heard of them."
"Saturday night specials. Pace Arms was run out of business not long ago."
"Why call it Love?"
"Something to do with history." Stren reached into the bag and pulled out a sound suppressor, which he screwed onto the end of the barrel. Then he pointed the barrel down and with his left thumb and forefinger depressed two buttons on either side of the frame, near the back end of the weapon. Out popped two short rods connected by an end piece. The doctor then extended the assembly, like the telescoping handle on a piece of luggage. Rovanna heard it lock into place. A skeleton butt, he thought, to brace in the crook of your elbow when firing. Truthfully, it seemed more like a gimmick than something you'd need.
"It's fully automatic," said Stren.
Not a gimmick at all then, thought Rovanna. The doctor pulled a very long magazine from his bag, and Rovanna could see the glimmer of the brass and copper within until Stren pushed it up into the handle of the gun. It snapped into place with a sharp click. The bottom half of the magazine protruded from the handle in a gently lethal curve.
"Thirty-two caliber ACP," said the doctor. "Fifty rounds in one five-second burst. Or, several shorter bursts. Or, you can choose semi and just squeeze them off one at a time. Subsonic, of course, and practically silent. The casings hitting the floor make as much noise as the gun."
Stren took his sky blue pocket square and wiped down the weapon. He ejected the magazine and wiped this also. When the Love 32 was whole again, he dabbed away once more with the silk square then set the gun on the couch. From his bag he took a box of ammunition and a spare magazine and put them beside the gun. He pushed the square back into his coat pocket, zipped shut the doctor's bag and stood.
"I'll recommend that your constitutional rights be restored," he said. "Though quite honestly I don't think your chances are good. It will take time for the court to decide. There is nothing wrong with you, Lonnie. Sometimes friends are all we have. And voices speak to all of us at different times. Listen to them and do what you think is right. As a human being you are free to decide. Anyone who tells you differently is trying to enslave you. In the meantime use this gift to protect yourself and those around you and to advance the ideals you believe in. I cannot force you to accept this gift. You are free to reject it at any time."
Rovanna watched Stren walk back down the gravel drive. The doctor turned and tipped his hat, then disappeared around the main house. The lump in Rovanna's throat had returned, and he realized how badly he had misjudged this man. He sat on the plaid couch and looked down at the Love 32 for a long while before picking it up.

EK are a frontrunner in the watercooling scene, manufacturing attractive yet functional products that are in use by many across the globe. EK's latest line, CSQ, is a fusion of sharp edges and rounded curves, designed to fit stealthily into any system without compromising the aesthetics of any particular component – yet standing out by itself all the same.
Today I'm working with EK's H30 HFX 360, a complete water cooling kit that provides their latest and greatest CPU block, the Supremacy, with a full 64mm thick 360mm radiator. Also provided in the kit are all the required fittings, a pump, a reservoir, tubing and all mounting hardware. We're very excited to test this kit, and we hope you are too. Keep reading as we unbox, install, and test the performance of EK's kit, along with my own personal feelings towards the end.

If you're an enthusiast, chances are you've heard of Case Labs. Some of their cases have garnered worldwide acclaim and the utmost care and attention goes into their designs, builds, and company ethos. Case Labs' cases are 100% made in the USA, and are hand assembled in the Case Labs warehouse (if you opt for assembly!).
Case Labs recently launched the SM8, the first is their new "Merlin" line, boasting support for E-ATX boards. Crafted from 100% aluminum, with absolutely no plastic to be found, the Merlin SM8 is built incredibly well. Promising support for even the most demanding cooling setups, Case Labs' newest case is staggeringly detailed. Case Labs were nice enough to send us over a Merlin SM8 for review, and we've put together a brief overview with an explanation of some of the features of this very well thought out case.

Not too long ago we had the pleasure of covering ASRock's mid-range offering, the Z77 Extreme6. Since then, ASRock have continued to release new motherboards to fit each market segment, including the board we have in front of us today, the Z77 OC Formula.
Geared towards overclockers and tweakers, the Z77 OC Formula sports both air and watercooled VRMs, 12 CPU power phases, an 8-layer Copper PCB, dual stack MOSFETs, Multi-Filter caps and a whole slew of other features and benefits, this new board promises to be the best performing board from ASRock that we've seen to date.

Water Cooling is awesome. There's no doubt about it. Traditionally, it performs better than air cooling, it's quieter, and looks amazing. But, it's also expensive, can be complicated, and to the uninitiated, looks risky. So, what if you want the benefits of water cooling, whilst eliminating…well, every one of those drawbacks? Enter the self-contained water cooling unit.
The Thermaltake WATER 2.0 Performer and Pro are made by Asetek. They are both equipped with 120mm radiators, allowing effective mounting almost anywhere in a chassis that has 120mm fan mounting locations. Thermaltake provide you with two 120mm fans so that you're able to do a push/pull set up, which is most welcome and much appreciated.

So you're on the hunt for a new memory kit, and whilst you know that "lower = better".. you don't exactly know why. You may even know the name "CAS Latency" .. but what is that, exactly? Why is it better to have CL8 over CL10? What are all these other numbers? What do the abbreviations mean? Why is it all so complicated!? Oh, and why do I care? Well.. read on, find out, and rejoice! I'm here to save the day.

This time around we're taking a look at G.Skill's TridentX series. Starting at 2133Mhz and going all the way up to 2800Mhz, the TridentX Series is brutally fast. A black and red theme well suited to ASUS' ROG series or ASRock's Fatal1ty series, it looks awesome if you're the kind of person who likes oversized or extreme styling.
The kit G.Skill have sent us is the middle of the spectrum; 2400Mhz, yet it's only CAS 10 – speeds, with high speeds with such low latency this kit promises to be a strong performer. Lets check it out!

Welcome to the ThinkComputers overclocking guide for the NVIDIA GK104. Also known as the NVIDIA GeForce 680, 670, and 660Ti! This guide does MAY apply to other cards in the series, but, use it at your own risk, as it has not been tested on those devices. If this is your first time overclocking, we hope this guide will be useful to you. If you're running Intel's latest processor technology, Ivy Bridge, feel free to check out our sister guide that'll help you in that area.

Ever since multi-rail PSUs were introduced, we've seen enthusiasts adamantly claim that one or the other PSU type is better. Some claim single rail is better for overclocking. Some claim multi-rail is safer. Single rail is cleaner. Multi-rail more efficient. The list goes on and on, so who's right? People on either side argue their points and pick up uninformed followers along the way, resulting in the same rehashed marketing over and over again from companies playing on this vehement fanboyism: A single strong 12v rail! Multi-rail for extra stability! Blah blah. Which is better? How does this apply to me? Keep reading, and I may just give you an answer.

Getting put through its paces today is the Inno3d iChiLL Black Edition GTX 680, with 4GB of GDDR5 memory. It is factory overclocked to 1120 Mhz, and has an aftermarket hybrid liquid / air cooler attached. The cooler itself is manufactured by Asetek, branded by Arctic, and then partnered with the inno3d card. Claiming to be virtually silent whilst many times more efficient than the reference cooler. If all goes well this card should be quite the performer. Follow us through the review as we benchmark, overclock, and generally beat the card into submission to reach our conclusion.

Today we're looking at ASUS' P8Z77-V PRO. Ranking 2nd in ASUS's mainstream line of motherboards, ranking slightly above the P8Z77-V, and below the P8Z77-V DELUXE. Offering a 12-Phase all-digital power delivery design, 100% Japanese Capacitors, and support for SLI and CrossFire, it boasts all the required features required for a mainstream gamer or overclocker. So what do you say we put it through its paces and see where it ranks, yes?

COLUMBIA, S.C. (AP) -- The Obama administration has rejected South Carolina Gov. Mark Sanford's request to use $700 million in federal stimulus cash to pay down state debt.
White House Budget Director Peter Orszag said in a letter to the Republican on Monday that the federal stimulus law doesn't allow President Barack Obama to make an exception for that cash. Sanford sought a waiver last week, asking to pay off debt rather than use the money to create jobs and avoid deep program cuts.
Sanford has criticized the $787 billion stimulus plan, saying it will lead to higher taxes and debt. And he is criticizing Obama and Democrats for airing an ad in the state that says the governor is playing politics with the stimulus cash instead of using it for health care, jobs and schools.

William Charles Hittinger
William Charles Hittinger
William Charles Hittinger died at Moravian Village, in Bethlehem, PA, on March 17, 2013. He was 90 years old. His life was one of exceptional personal achievement in which he devoted nearly a half century of leadership to both industry and education.Born on November 10, 1922 in Bethlehem, PA, he attended Bethlehem High School, and graduated from Lehigh University in 1944 with a B.S. in Metallurgical Engineering. As a Lehigh undergraduate, Mr. Hittinger was accepted into the engineering honors society Tau Beta Pi. Mr. Hittinger was also a member of the Phi Gamma Delta fraternity and played on both the football & baseball teams. He was one of the first recipients of an Alumni Student Grant financial aid award in recognition of his promise as an athlete, scholar, and potential leader. Additionally, he was in Lehighs ROTC during
and served in the U.S.
following graduation, rising to the rank of Captain.Mr. Hittingers professional career as an engineer was extraordinary and distinguished. A veteran of more than 45 years in electronics, The Western Electric Company hired Hittinger in 1946 as a materials engineer. He began focusing on semiconductor research when he became a Production Manager for the National Union Radio Corporation a few years later. In 1959, he was hired by Bell Telephone Labs to direct the semiconductor device lab. Mr. Hittinger became Executive Director of the Semiconductor Device and Electron Tube Division of Bell Labs in 1962. In 1966, he was elected President of Bellcomm, Inc., a company jointly owned by American Telephone & Telegraph Company and Western Electric Company which was engaged in systems engineering for
s manned space flight program. In 1968, he became President of General Instrument Corporation, the electronics manufacturing giant that was acquired by Motorola in 2000. RCA hired Mr. Hittinger in 1970 to fill the Vice President and General Manager position of their Solid State Division. Two years later he became the Executive Vice President in charge of consumer electronics, and was elected to the RCA Board of Directors in 1974. His job as Executive Vice President of Research and Engineering came in 1976, a position he held until retirement in 1986. As EVP of R&E, Mr. Hittinger was responsible for all labs and RCA patent operations in their Princeton, New Jersey headquarters, as well as their international business and marketing development. From 1982 to 1986, Mr. Hittinger served on President Reagans National Security Telecommunications Advisory Committee. He was also a member of the U.S. - Brazil Presidential Committee on Science and Technology and served as a member of the board of directors for eight companies, including Bethlehem Steel, and the Stabler Companies Inc. He has received countless accolades, most notable of which are his National Academy of Engineering membership and his Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers fellowship.In addition to his wife, Betty, the center of his universe for nearly 70 years, Mr. Hittinger carried on a love affair with Lehigh University and was a dedicated sports enthusiast. His passion for sports extended well beyond the Lehigh campus however, and he served as a high school football official for more than 10 years in both the Lehigh Valley and Northern New Jersey. Mr. Hittinger was an active member of Lehighs Board of Trustees for twenty-two years. The university began construction on the Zoellner Arts Center, completed the Ulrich Student Center, aggressively improved its financial aid for undergraduates, and completed the $305 million Campaign for Preserving the Vision during his 6 years as Chairman. He personally oversaw the introduction of wrestling scholarships, not limited by demonstrated financial need, in 1994. The program was fully endowed through alumni donations totaling $3.8 million, and its adoption also included the development of the academic merit aid program known as Deans Scholars. Mr. Hittinger also served in the capacity of Interim President in 1997-98. During that time, Lehigh adopted a similar policy for mens and womens basketball as part of a strategic effort to preserve the Patriot League and to enhance those athletic programs within the University.While president, Mr. Hittinger realigned the Iacocca Institute into the College of Business and Economics, oversaw the construction of the new Sayre Park Village residential complex, and facilitated Lehighs forward progression during a time of presidential transition. In recognition of his personal achievements and lifelong dedication to his alma mater, Lehigh bestowed Mr. Hittinger with an honorary Doctor of Engineering degree in 1973, the prestigious Lehigh in Life award in 1979 and inducted him into the Sports Hall of Fame.My father was a shining example of the hard earned, honest success which so typifies a member of the Greatest Generation. He grew up in a loving and caring, working class family where he learned to be industrious, fair and empathic, yet tough minded when necessary. He was continually grateful for all he achieved and despite the many accolades he received, he was an honest and humble man. He will be sorely missed by all who knew and loved him, said his son, Bill Hittinger.
In addition to his loving wife, Elizabeth, of 68 years; Mr. Hittinger is survived by his two sisters, Ruth Motz, of Columbus, OH and Barbara Waskowitz, of New Britain, CT; his adoring children, Patricia Bunche, of London, England, William J. Hittinger, of Sewickly, PA., David C. Hittinger, of Bethlehem, PA, and Nancy Lehrer, of Winchester, MA., as well as 11 grandchildren; six great-grandchildren and three more on the way. He was predeceased by his father, John T. Hittinger and mother, Pearl M. Hittinger of Bethlehem, PA.
Will be private.
The family requests that in lieu of flowers, donations be made to the William C. Hittinger Scholarship Fund at Lehigh University, Office of Advancement, 27 Memorial Drive West, Bethlehem, PA 18015.
