Carhartt Cascade Pant - Women'sView Larger Image
- Detail Images
Ultralight rain pants are great when you're counting grams for a two-month backpacking trip, but what if you need a waterproof pant that's tougher and designed for outdoor work? Carhartt conceived the Women's Cascade Pant for just this purpose. Reinforced construction, full-length leg zippers, and plenty of weatherproofing make this pant ideal for work, for scrambling through thick woods, or for nasty storms during your camping trip.
- Four-ounce nylon fabric is highly durable but also highly packable and lightweight
- Reinforced double knees provide extra protection against abrasion
- Dura Dry 8mm fabric coating is waterproof to keep you dry and breathable so excess heat can escape from underneath
- Fully taped seams provide additional weatherproof protection
- Mesh and taffeta lining at the knee keeps the inside of these pants from rubbing uncomfortably against your legs
- Full-length zippers and adjustable leg openings make it easy to climb in and out of these pants, even with boots on, and give you a way to vent excess heat

We implemented our new morning system today trying to prepare for twins arrival. Yea it didn't go so good :(
How's everyone else's Monday starting out?
Hi ladies. I'm hippo-ing, sorry! Hope everyone is having a good morning, though. We all slept in this morning (DS later than the rest of us). MIL texted DH and said she still wasn't feeling well and will let us know "what her plans are" later. That's nice of her, right? Trying not to be annoyed. DH said, "I'm really sorry..." after he told me, lol.
BUT. DH is also buying me the camera lens I've been wanting for a while for Valentine's day so WOOHOO.
That's what she said.

Haha, I don't know how I remember all that stuff. I just figured since there weren't too many pages yet I would GOAT it all and then there were lots of things I wanted to respond to so I just kept adding them up in my head. I guess we can chalk it up to 11 years of having to memorize emergency procedures and flight tactics. :-)
Mamad - I know right? That dream is freaking me out. And I was going to guess peppermint schnapps or bailey's mixed with coffee or hot chocolate for your drink. Mmmmm.
As for the waxing, I've been going to her for lots and lots of years so it was no big thing to have her see my goods in my larger (up and down there!) condition. I just hope it hasn't all grown back in by the time labor kicks in. She's down in San Diego, and you're right I refuse to let anyone else see me down there!
Oh! I'm watching the today show and the calvin klein ad from the super bowl just came on! Yummy all over again!!

Dude. That sucks. I would hunt someone down if they took my camera. I do love having it because I am a sahm. I got out of it for a while because of my depression but I've started doing more lately. I really wanted a good portrait lens so I could take nice photos of DD when she gets here. :)
That's what she said.

The Division of Nephrology and Hypertension has developed a comprehensive Hypertension Program. A hypertension consortium headed by Professor Edward Philbin (Chief of Cardiology) has been created that links the hypertension program to multiple specialties, including:
- Cardiology
- Endocrinology
- General internal medicine
- Emergency department
- Pharmacology
- Renal translational research program
The program offers hypertension management services by Dr. Roy Mathew. The hypertension program provides comprehensive hypertension care including pharmacologic therapy, dietary counseling and lifestyle modification for all and particularly those who are overweight and those with metabolic syndrome. The program has focused on:
- Salt restriction
- Smoking cessation
- Alcohol moderation
- Exercise
- Fruits and vegetables
The program has a busy outpatient clinic that provides hypertension service to patients with all types of hypertension. The program also has on-site availability of echocardiogram services and ambulatory blood pressure monitoring program. The hypertension program works very closely with Professor Gary Siskin (Chairman: Radiology Department) who provides vital imaging support and adrenal vein sampling for secondary forms of hypertension.
The Division of Nephrology and Hypertension has also initiated a national hypertension meeting with specific goals of increasing hypertension awareness, education and research at the local and national level. The program has participated and provided expertise in a hospital wide hypertension quality improvement initiative.
This initiative has had a huge impact on improving blood pressure control on a large scale with control rates exceeding 80% throughout the medical center, compared to the national average of around 55% control. A platform to initiate and promote research and scholarly activity in the field of hypertension has also been initiated. Research projects including biomarkers identification under the leadership of Roy Mathew/Darius Mason and renal denervation intervention under the leadership of Gary Siskin are underway.

Review Part 2: MOSBEAU PLACENTA WHITE ADVANCED
So, hello mosbeau.. I had high hopes for you, you were different. You were the glutathione that is not a glutathione, rather a glutathione pre-cursor and activator. You claim to be the beauty supplement of the supplements.
- It is rather expensive at 3,500 for 120 tablets
- Taking 4 tablets per day at different timings can be a hassle especially if you are taking other meds
- It made my skin really glowing, you can notice in the ff picture that even though I wasn't the fairest; I radiate differently
- I did not have any negative reactions which is a plus because most glutathione brands give me cystic acne! (you can see here the glutathione brands that I have tried already)
- 2 weeks wasn't enough to notice the whitening difference so I would probably still continue to take this, until a new brand feeds my curiosity
- I like how it uses a variety of beneficial ingredients for beautifying effects
|Click photo to enlarge. I'm the one wearing pink. You can notice t9he glow. Note: Acne was caused by Belo Glutathione a month ago :

Eight out of Field Mill
By Andrew Scurr
Last Updated: 01/01/70 1:00am
Mansfield Town have allowed eight out-of-contract players to leave Field Mill.
Mansfield Town have allowed eight out-of-contract players to leave Field Mill.
Manager Peter Shirtliff is keen to bring in a number of reinforcements in the summer but has to let others go before that will be possible.
Goalkeeper Kevin Pressman is one of the biggest casualties, along with Rhys Day, Gus Uhlenbeek and striker Adam Rundle.
Also leaving are Jason Talbot, Fraser McLachlan, Kyle Jacobs and Allan Russell.
The other members of The Stags' squad whose contracts have expired have all been offered new deals and have until May 20 to agree to new terms.
"I have been happy with what they have done for me and the club so I wish them well for their future careers," said Shirtliff on the club's official website.
"I am moving in a different direction now so I cannot see the point in keeping a player hanging on if there isn't much chance of them getting first team football.
"I have offered new deals to all the other players that are out of contract."
Meanwhile, the Mansfield boss has offered a permanent deal to Laurence Wilson, who was on loan at the club from Everton and has since been released by The Toffees.
However, Chester City are also interested and are thought to have offered the youngster a deal.
"I offered Laurence a deal," he added. "I like him and wanted to keep him at this club but there is talk that he has chosen to sign for Chester.
"I am disappointed but if he has signed for them there is nothing I can do about it now"


text: Parents back Obama on shared education 24 Jun 2013 A new survey has suggested two thirds of parents agree with President Obama's sentiments on the importance of shared education. Share Share Share Story by UTV Staff, Belfast The poll asked local families if they would support an increase in the number of integrated places in Belfast, from 4% to 33%.The NI Council for Integrated Education says the results reflect the opinions expressed by US President Barack Obama in his speech at the Waterfront Hall last week. "On 17 June, President Obama threw down a gauntlet to the young people of Belfast, urging them to take the steps necessary to secure a shared and peaceful society by moving beyond segregated housing and segregated education," said Noreen Campbell of NICIE."This survey shows overwhelming support for NICIE's proposals to increase the volume of integrated primary school places in the BELB area from 4% to 33% even though this will mean an offset reduction in places in the controlled and maintained sectors that might impact on their own local schools."Four hundred parents in the BELB area took part in the survey.Just over 80% said integrated education is a vital part of creating a shared future - while 72% believe that funding for integrated education should be prioritised.During his address in Belfast, which came ahead of the G8 in Co Fermanagh, the US President spoke to an audience of young people about ending divisions.Barack Obama said: "If towns remain divided - if Catholics have their schools and buildings and Protestants have theirs, if we can't see ourselves in one another, if fear or resentment are allowed to harden - that too encourages division. It discourages co-operation."He later visited Enniskillen Integrated Primary School with Prime Minister David Cameron.Welcoming the outcome of Monday's survey, Ms Campbell added: "This poll gives voice to the parents of Belfast."The process of area based planning creates an opportunity for the voice of parents to be heard and for the development of a network of integrated schools to meet the stated demand for this type of education. This poll echoes the sentiments of President Obama and chimes with the public commitment to consolidating a peaceful society." © UTV Share Share Share

Lian Li do make a 2 sata board as well.....so if the spacing is the same that would be the logical choice. The 3 sata though can be chopped down to 2 without problem or loss of functionality.
I just need to take apart another G5 to double check how it'd work at the back. My suspicion is it might not fit in the regular placing up top and right but may work as an array elsewhere perhaps underslung from the DVD shelf.

Muskego won't ban fireworks
They will review how displays work under new fireworks rules
Muskego - The suggestion to hold a referendum on banning private fireworks displays was put on hold so that Muskego's new fireworks ordinance can be given a try.
Muskego is the only community in the metropolitan area that allows private residents to put on fireworks displays, if they get city permits.
The Common Council meeting as a Committee of the Whole last week decided it was premature to hold a referendum, favoring instead to see how well the new fireworks ordinance works. The new rules were to get their first tryout last Fourth of July, but due to last summer's drought the city had a burn ban that nixed fireworks. The Public Safety Committee suggested the referendum.
"We have a real good rewrite of the ordinance," Alderman Neil Borgman said.
Alderman Daniel Soltysiak said he would rather see stepped-up enforcement against people being bad neighbors before talking about a referendum. The city already has ordinances against excessive noise, littering and vandalism and he would like those enforced more, he said.
The new ordinance also gives people the chance to complain about fireworks displays to the city. The Finance Committee will review the complaint with both parties and then decide whether the complaint is valid and serious enough to deny a fireworks permit the following year.
That process was followed once so far, Soltysiak said. The parties might not have gone away happy, but there was a dialogue, he said.
The Committee of the Whole supported tightening up the window to complain about fireworks displays. The old deadline was July 31. The new one will be July 8. The last day displays are allowed is July 7.
Agreeing with Soltysiak that most of the problems come from people who don't get permits, Alderman Kert Harenda said that banning legal displays is unfair because it punishes people who do the right thing. So, he didn't support a referendum on banning fireworks.
Police have noted no major incidents because of fireworks. Years ago, a barn was set on fire, but firefighters arrived quickly and put it out.
Alderman Rob Glazier acknowledged that fireworks are dangerous. He found burn holes in a boat covering at his house due to fireworks, he said. But shooting off fireworks is a big quality of life issue for many people, he said.

A musical acid jazz test: is it time for a revival?
Acid jazz is ripe for a revisit from a music industry that is always looking for the brand new (old) thing
It's amazing what a simple prefix can do for perceptions. Back in the late 1980s, acid house was booming out of Chicago studios and changing clubland forever with a barmy barrage of 303 synths. At the time, Eddie Piller and Gilles Peterson were a pair of DJs playing soul, jazz and funk in various clubs and on pirate radio stations around London. However, they were pulling far smaller crowds than their acid-house peers.
Witnessing what was going on in the main rooms as clubbers fell in love with house music's energy and excitement, Peterson coined the term acid jazz to sum up the music he and others were playing and trying to promote. It was playful and pointed, a name that was probably not intended to be taken all that seriously. It was simply a tag which sounded interesting.
But the term worked in ways Peterson or Piller never saw coming. Aside from providing the pair with a name for their nascent record label, acid jazz became a handy description for a certain sound and style that was then enjoying a moment in London. What began at Sunday-afternoon hops in places such as Dingwalls in Camden, where fashionable dancers went wild to old rare grooves and heavyweight cuts from jazz labels' back catalogues, soon spread to other urban centres.
In Dublin in the early 1990s, you'd have found acid-jazz tracks on the playlist at clubs such as Rí-Rá and the Waterfront, while many of the genre's big acts turned up to play at the Tivoli.
Lucky Cork clubbers could hear one of the scene originators, Paul Murphy, playing in clubs such as Sir Henry's. Before moving to Cork to run a clothing business, Murphy had run London's Paladin record shop and DJed at the Electric Ballroom and The Wag, where his knowledge of rare dancefloor jazz cuts was a huge influence on the likes of Peterson.
By the mid-1990s, acid jazz was a prolific, hugely popular scene, thanks largely to a bunch of successful acts such as the Brand New Heavies, Jamiroquai and Galliano, who started releasing records influenced by old jazz and soul sounds.
It's 25 years since the Acid Jazz label was set up and co-founder Eddie Piller is marking the occasion with special releases, a film, a book and a tour, which calls at Dublin's Sugar Club on Friday.
As with any planned outbreak of nostalgia, it's all about looking back and remembering the good old days. While the label still operates today – one of their best acts are an exciting bunch of Manchester roughnecks called the Janice Graham Band – most people associate Acid Jazz with its heyday and its former stars.
Like any musical movement, acid jazz had its good and bad moments. For instance, the series of Totally Wired compilations that Peterson and Piller put together in the early days contained plenty of diamonds. Aside from providing an opportunity for the young guns on the make at the time, the albums also reintroduced cult acts such as the late, great Terry Callier and Aaron Neville to new audiences. Indeed, Callier was able to leave his job as a computer programmer at the University of Chicago, sign to Peterson's Talkin' Loud label and enjoy a bit of a revival with albums such as TimePeace.
However, it's interesting to note when you go back to these compilations that it's the music of the veterans rather the newer acts that has best survived the test of time.Both Jamiroquai and the Brand New Heavies are still making music today, although neither are as prolific as they once were. Jamiroquai is still a big live draw internationally, but it's quite some time since he last had a crossover hit of any description.
Perhaps the death knell for acid jazz came when it was appropriated by various marketing departments as a way of shifting hastily thrown-together compilations and back-catalogue releases. Acts and releases with very little connection to the original spirit clung on to the tag for dear life in the hope of benefiting from a commercial bump.
Pop, though, tends to operate in cycles and it might well be time for acid jazz to have some time in the limelight again. All it will take are a bunch of new bands taking their cues from the same records that Piller and Peterson championed and played to death 25 years ago. And, of course, an audience to take them to their hearts.

Here are some other highlights and headlines that I noticed over at Ransom Notes Radio:
A new telephone survey shows that roughly 83 percent of Americans would like English to be the official language of the United States. Another 7 percent responded "no understand"; and another ten percent kept hitting "2" to hear the question in Spanish.
John Kerry says that climate change is the biggest threat we currently face… I mean, a bunch of terrorists instigating a genocidal slaughter in the Middle East probably runs a distant second. (The threat of the Lorax going extinct probably runs a tight third.)
Here's the headline: U.S. declares Yazidi intervention a success, says rescue mission unneeded. And, if the US government says it was a "success", then clearly we can throw up that "mission accomplished" banner we have left over from Obama's troop withdrawal.
Seriously? Barack Obama – the guy who is busy golfing, swimming, and dancing through world-wide unrest – called Israel's Prime Minister "reckless"; and refused to ship American missiles to the Israelis. The chutzpa!
While everything else is going on in the world (including race riots in Ferguson, MO) the Obamas spent the night dancing away with some Hollywood big shots… Because 17 room vacation homes in Martha's Vineyard, daily golf games, and getting down with the rich and famous is really what the Presidency is all about.

UNIVERSITY PARK, Pa. - The Nittany Lion women's volleyball team faced adversity two weeks ago as they fell to No. 15 Illinois in a 3-1 match, but the Lions roared back on the road last weekend to earn two-straight wins.
Now, Penn State is looking to carry that momentum into a pair of home matches.
Penn State headed to No. 14 Purdue last Friday evening and came out victorious in a tough five-set (26-24, 23-25, 22-25, 25-23, 15-9) battle. The Nittany Lions won the first set, but came up short in the next two sets. The team was able to regroup and collect themselves to regain momentum and win the following two sets and the match.
"We stayed confident in each other [when we were down a set] and trusted our ability in things we've done in practice and fighting hard for every point," said senior Dominique Gonzalez. "I think the belief that we have in each other and the confidence that we had that we could pull it out really helped us."
Penn State's momentum continued into the next night as the Nittany Lions swept Indiana (25-11, 25-19, 25-15) at University Gym.
"It was a huge team effort," said junior Aiyana Whitney. "The hunger proved ourselves that we can do great things and we can win matches, like those tight matches in hostile environments and that's something we really wanted, so we rallied as a team to better the team effort."
This weekend, the Nittany Lions hope to continue their drive from their two wins as they return to Rec Hall to take on Michigan at 7 p.m. on Friday evening and Michigan State at 5:30 p.m. on Saturday evening.
"I think [winning] builds a little team morale," said Gonzalez. "We kind of needed those wins. It was a battle at Purdue, so that helped out a lot, but going into this weekend, they're two different teams that fight very hard and they're coming to Rec Hall, but that doesn't mean anything if we don't play the way we should play. They're two really tough teams. Michigan beat Nebraska, which is a great win, so they're strong teams with great setters and great offense and defense and it's going to be a tough matchup, but we're preparing the best way we can."
In preparation for this weekend's matchups, focus has been high on the practice court this week.
"We have been working a lot on our blocking," said Whitney. "We've been putting a lot of time and effort into trying to make that more of a strength rather than a weakness, so I think that's something we want to emphasize on this weekend knowing that these are great attacking teams and that's something we definitely need to step up if we want to be successful this weekend."
With a good week of practice and more confidence, the team is ready for this weekend.
"We're feeling a little better about where we are. I think we're pretty focused in practice, so I would love for [our confidence and momentum] to carry into the matches this weekend," said Whitney.
Though there is still a long season ahead, the players want to focus on taking each match one at a time.
"We're trying to be focused on every match as best we can and focused on playing every team as hard as we can, said Gonzalez. "We have to take one match at a time. We can't look past any match or look onto the tournament until we get through conference."
Whitney echoes her teammate and believes that the team has a lot to build on for the future.
"I think this team has great potential. I know that everyone thinks we're super young and that's true, but I think we can do great things. We're working hard right now, so down the road, we're playing to our fullest potential," said Whitney.

UNIVERSITY PARK, Pa. - All sports teams hope to be the very best that they can be throughout every season. Teams strive to string together victories en route to playing their best at the end of a season.
But inevitably, groups face adversity.
It's how a group responds to the adversity that often shapes a team's character. The Nittany Lion women's volleyball team returns to action this weekend looking to get back on track following a setback to No. 15 Illinois.
"Some weeks you may feel confident going in and you'd like to think you're going to win your matches at home, but we didn't take care of the ball in the match with Illinois and you move on," said head coach Russ Rose. "You don't look back. You can't worry. I'm a big believer in 'One lost can't beat you twice.' You identify to the people this is what we need to get better at...and you try and get better."
Prior to last weekend, Penn State had lost only two matches. After both losses, the team came back stronger than ever with straight-set wins against their next opponent.
"When you lose, you go back to the film and look at what I could have done differently, so I think it does give you a little fire to come back and bounce back," said senior Micha Hancock. "But I think we need to be better at creating that fire ourselves, instead of having to get a lost and having to get ourselves, we can motivate each other."
The team hopes to relay back this weekend as they take on No. 14 Purdue (16-2, 6-0) on Friday evening and Indiana (12-6, 3-3) on Saturday evening.
"Our emphasis [this week] is to try and get two wins. I mean, we're scouting the teams, we're going to mix up some shots, we're going to see what we're looking at, and I think it's also just trying to make less errors," said Hancock. "We're a young team now and we're not trying to out block and out dig a team and still lose. It's just hard work in the gym, communicating what we can get better at."
Junior Megan Courtney also believes that they have a few things to work on for this weekend.
"[We need to work on] just being better teammates. I think Coach talked about it a lot that we're great players, but we haven't really been able to come together as a team very often, so focusing on the team aspect instead of trying to do it individually," said Courtney. "[It's also] just little things at practice. Trying to finish drills that don't necessary mean much in practice because it carries over to games. It was clear against Illinois that we didn't finish up the first game like we should of, which could have swung the momentum for the game, but we just need to be able to start fast and end fast and be able to close, so that's what we've been working on."
In addition, Courtney has been a leader in helping the underclassmen to bounce back.
"I just keep telling them that you're here to make mistakes, you're a freshman, I'll take the blame for anything, or I'll help you out as best as I can... you need to just worry about you and I'll try to do what I need to do to help you get better and help you be confident because that's what we need from them; we need confidence from them," said Courtney. "We need them to take big swings and if they keep doing that, then we're in pretty good shape."
Coach Rose understands the situation and still has high expectations for the team.
"It's been a tough situation when the expectations are as high as they are and the preseason, we're ranked No. 1 in the country based on winning last year's national championship," said Rose. "I think it's a real task for some people to not believe the press clippings, but what they do when the other teams are really good. That's the part of the equation. The Big Ten is an incredibly tough conference and everybody is beating everybody. Purdue is the only team hasn't suffered a loss yet this season."
The Nittany Lions will continue their season this weekend, but there is still a long way to go.
"We have seven more weeks of Big Ten play, so that's a lot of matches," said coach Rose.

UNIVERISTY PARK, Pa.-- The stage was set for a great first start at home for freshman Haleigh Washington: a Big Ten matchup in Rec Hall, an energetic crowd and an excited band. But the Nittany Lions fell to the Illinois in four sets.
Despite the outcome, Washington's first start in Rec Hall was an exciting experience for the young middle blocker. Leading up to the match, she kept her composure while trying to shake her nerves. But as soon as it was game time, she knew it was time to go out there and "do her thing."
"I was trying to do the best that I could and bring whatever I could to this team," Washington said. "Everybody has a job and I was just trying to do mine."
In the first set, the Nittany Lions had a 19-8 lead over Illinois. After multiple scoring streaks, the Fighting Illini fought back to make the score 23-17. With five unanswered points and a four-point scoring streak at the end of the set, the Illini took the first frame, 26-24.
"We scored a lot of points [in the first game], we blocked better. We had some areas where I thought we were going to do some things and surprisingly enough, [Illinois] battled a little better than we did," head coach Russ Rose said. "In the beginning of the year, I had Illinois as the team to win the conference."
In the second set, the Nittany Lions beat the Illini 25-16. Illinois came back to take sets three and four, 25-23 and 25-22 respectively.
Penn State had momentum in end of the final frame that kept the Nittany Lions within two points at 24-22, but the Illini finished off the match with a block.
"We had fire at the end of the game. Then there's that little hope and it's just crushed and that's the worst feeling; when you're so close and you're thinking that it's good and it ends up being too little too late," Washington said. "It's disappointment and a chance to work harder at practice. We don't really linger. We're ready to come back and work harder."
Although the Nittany Lions fell to the 15th-ranked Illini, Rose noted that Washington played especially well for her first start in Rec Hall.
"Her energy is always good. She is a confident, young person. She hit really well [and] took some good swings," Rose said. "Considering it was a big match with a lot of people and a lot of importance, she really represented herself well."
Washington had a career-high 14 kills on a .538 hitting percentage. She had seven blocks, but said she needs to improve her blocking.
[My blocking has] got to be a better game. In a conference like the Big Ten, blocking is a really big, important aspect of your game. I'm trying to improve on that," Washington said.
Throughout the entire match, Washington's energy was very positive, even when the team was down.
"I had to go in and play my game. I was trying to take care of what I could take care of and control what I could control," Washington said.
Washington and the Nittany Lions travel to Indiana next to face Purdue on Friday at 8 p.m.
UNIVERSITY PARK, Pa. - Redshirt junior Aiyana Whitney went into this week's practice knowing that she needed to improve on blocking and transition balls. Whitney displayed that she achieved what she had strived for by leading Penn State's offense with 12 kills on .500 hitting as well as a match-high of seven blocks in Wednesday's sweep (25-20, 25-17, 25-17) against No. 24 Northwestern.
The Nittany Lions have now won their last 23 consecutive matchups against the Wildcats, which gives Penn State a 47-8 lead in the series.
"She was the leading scorer in the match and I appreciate her effort tonight," said head coach Russ Rose. "I thought she played well and it's nice when somebody gets a chance to get recognized."
Aiyana was particularly dominant in the third set, which provided Penn State with the momentum that it needed to finish off the match. She recorded three points for the Nittany Lions by making three kills in a row after the Wildcats received senior Micha Hancock's serves. Hancock tallied 30 assists, seven digs, three blocks, and a match-high of four aces.
Junior Megan Courtney also logged double-digit kills with 10 kills on .400 hitting. She also had eight digs and two blocks. Senior Nia Grant followed close behind with seven kills and senior Dominique Gonzalez held the team together with 10 digs.
Though Penn State came out with a win, Whitney believes that there is still much more to improve on.
"[Our energy coming out of the gate] wasn't our best, that's for sure. I think all-around it kind of lacked emotion and that's a huge part of the game," said Whitney. "I mean, energy-wise, if we don't pick that up, then the game could easily go the other way. Personally, my blocking was what I really wanted to focus on and I think it's something that I've been struggling with in the middle position. It's new to me and it's something I've been trying to work on."
Coach Rose also recognized that the team has a lot to work on before Saturday's match against No. 15 Illinois.
"I think our blocking is an area that needs to be better and just court awareness. There were some plays out there that players had no idea what was going on. Just because you win, doesn't mean you know what's going on," said Rose. "I didn't think anybody came ready to play. Practice has been like that for a few days. You watched our match last week on TV, that's what it looked like, so just no emotion, no real leadership out there - it was pretty disappointing. It would be fine if it was a recreational team and we were deciding where we were going to go afterwards for a snack, but that's not how I look at the last five decades that I've been coaching at Penn State."
Penn State will be welcoming No. 15 Illinois to Rec Hall at 4 p.m. on Saturday. The Fighting Illini forced a fifth set at Ohio State Wednesday evening after falling into a 2-1 deficit, but fell short to the Buckeyes to drop to 11-5 in the season and 3-2 in the Big Ten.
"We saw Illinois at the beginning of the year and since then, they've played much better, so I mean, Illinois is strong in all positions," said coach Rose. "They've got veteran players at the pins and they're going to be pretty fired up after losing a five-game match [last] night at Ohio State. You know, life on the road in the Big Ten is very, very tough and we need to make it tougher than it was today. The girls need to work a lot harder. We'll go hard [today] at practice. I want to find out who wants to play."
Coach Rose wants to see the team continue to grow.
"The expectations are high here. The players who are recruited, the expectations are high and that's the way it should be," said Rose. "So if you look at results, I don't think that's the best way to look at things. I think performance makes the difference."
Whitney hopes to build on the success for this weekend's match.
"We got to be ready to play," said Whitney.

UNIVERSITY PARK, Pa. - Everyone has an idol or role model that he or she grows up admiring, whether it be a family member, a celebrity, an athlete, or someone in a different occupation. We based our lives and principles around these certain individuals because we wanted to grow up and accomplish everything our heroes had achieved.
The same story goes for women's volleyball redshirt junior Aiyana Whitney who began playing volleyball after watching her older sister, Anissa Whitney, on the court.
"[I started playing] in middle school," said Whitney. "My older sister picked it up in her high school years and I was just kind of one of those little sisters that said "I want to do it too," and I didn't expect to fall in love with it, so I mean, I guess I would owe it all to her and me just wanting to be like her."
Whitney's older sister helped shape Aiyana into the player she is today.
"I knew nothing about the sport and she definitely helped me out as best as she could growing up," said Whitney. "I think kind of just watching her play and then she kind of encouraged me to take it more seriously and you know, start to really try and improve my game to play at top level."
Nearly four years ago, when it came time for Whitney to select a college to attend, she knew that no other school would compare to Penn State when it came to playing volleyball at the top level.
"You come to a program like this because you want to play in gyms such as Nebraska the other night," said Whitney. "I mean, those are the atmospheres you come to big schools for and I think just Penn State's tradition of winning and excellence and success has been something that draws any player who wants to play big time volleyball, so I think that's what made me come."
Whitney is having an excellent season thus far. She currently has a .377 hitting percentage, which sits at the fifth spot in the Big Ten standings. She received MVP honors from the Penn State Alumni Classic for leading the team in terrific offensive and defensive performances, especially during the win over UIC when she led the team with 13 kills on .722 hitting. Whitney also made the All-Tournament Team following the Villanova Classic after she recorded double-digit kills and a career-high of six blocks in the team's win over No. 24 Kansas.
This past weekend, Whitney logged nine kills and two blocks as Penn State faced off Nebraska and Iowa. Though the Nittany Lions swept past Iowa, the team fell short against Nebraska. Although, Penn State beat Iowa to cap off the weekend, Whitney believes that there is still much to improve on.
"I think we just need to get our game a little tighter. I feel like we had a lot of holes in our game in terms of running on offense. It was kind of difficult for us to get middles involved and things like that," said Whitney. "I know on a personal note, blocking and transition balls are something I need to work on and I think if we get that side of our game a little more air-tight than we have a better chance of competing harder against our opponents."
Whitney is looking on the positive side of things, nonetheless.
"I think coming out of it, we see what we need to work on and we see where we need to tighten our game," said Whitney. "I think it's kind of given us even more motivation going into this week of practice to really prepare for this upcoming weekend."
The Nittany Lions take on Northwestern and Illinois this week and Whitney is moving forward with great confidence.
"This season, I definitely want to defend what we earned last year and I think the best way to do that is to pick up our game now and look forward to the rest of the season," said Whitney. "No one ever likes losing and loses are pretty awful, so I think right now the main focus is on the matches we have ahead of us and just getting better every day."

UNIVERSITY PARK, Pa. - At most sporting events, the fans in the crowd believe that the flashiest plays are the most notable ones. In volleyball, the kills and the great digs get the crowd excited and up off their feet, but what about the technical aspect of things?
A match cannot have any true momentum to it without the back row having strong serve receives. Penn State's back row has been doing a terrific job with that this season, especially from senior libero Dominique Gonzalez.
Gonzalez earned the Defensive Player of the Week for the Big Ten after helping the team notch two wins against then fifth-ranked Wisconsin and then 17th-ranked Minnesota. She led the team with 6.71 digs per set, including 21 digs during the Wisconsin match and a season-high of 26 digs against the Gophers. The win against Minnesota marked the fourth match of the season where Gonzalez had 20 or more digs.
"It's a great feeling," said Gonzalez. "It's the first time I've gotten it in my career, so that was pretty cool."
Though she is honored to have won this week's title, Gonzalez has other things on her mind.
"I think the more important things to focus on are the wins that we had and getting better at things we need to get better at and focusing on this week. The awards and stuff are cool, but winning as a team is better in my eyes," said Gonzalez. "As a team, I think we've got to improve on consistency. We missed a lot of serves at crucial times, so going back to the service line, being confident, and just being sure, We had a great match against Wisconsin and our play kind of slipped a little bit against Minnesota, so maintaining that consistent level of volleyball at all times."
Gonzalez began her collegiate athletic career nearly five years ago when she decided to leave San Antonio, Texas, to continue her passion for volleyball at Penn State. The 1,600 miles between home and Happy Valley made no difference to her as she knew that Penn State was her top choice.
"The community, the excellence it has in volleyball, I mean, you have a legendary coach, so in my eyes, there was nothing more," said Gonzalez. "Playing [for] Penn State volleyball was what I wanted. Playing for coach and being part of such a tradition. You look at all the success the program has had in the past and that's something I wanted to be a part of and wanted to be the best player that I could be and I knew that coach could bring that out in us."
Her family helps to provide a strong support system, as well.
"It's my last season and my parents are retired now, so they're making more of an effort to go to away matches, which is great to have people in the crowd supporting us in such big venues where a lot of the crowd is against us."
Since being and playing as a freshman, Gonzalez's game has grown exponentially, but she continues to look for improvement throughout her final season.
"When you come in as a freshman, there are a lot of overwhelming feelings when you're on the court. The game is faster - you're playing with girls that are anywhere between 18 to 22 years old and they're experienced as well," Said Gonzalez. "I try to improve a lot on my consistency and not being too high or being too low when you play well or play bad."
The Nittany Lions are almost midway through the season and still have a lot to look forward to.
"I think we always set our standards at the highest point we can so as a team I think we want to win as many matches as we can and get better each time we play and hopefully win a Big Ten Championship," said Gonzalez. We just want to do what we can to make a good run in the tournament."

UNIVERSITY PARK, Pa. -- After a successful Big Ten opening weekend, the Penn State women's volleyball team is focusing on being consistent on the court as conference play continues on the road.
Junior Megan Courtney said consistency will put the No. 3-ranked team on the road to success.
"[The emphasis this week is on] consistency and being able turn out points one after the other," Courtney said. "And believing in each other that we can beat whoever the opponent is."
The Big Ten Conference is rigorous week in and week out. Head coach Russ Rose noted that the conference season is a constant battle for 20 matches. There are nine weekends remaining in conference play. Rose said the team can't get too high with a win or too down with a loss because it's a two and a half month-long schedule.
"[The Big Ten season] is way more of a marathon than a sprint, so you really can't get yourself all tied up in one chapter of the big book," Rose said.
The Nittany Lions are off to a good start at 2-0 in conference play. But at this point in the "marathon", Courtney said there are still aspects of the game that need improvement.
"It's not about just winning the first two games in the conference. We could lose the next 18 and not be anywhere near our end goal," Courtney said. "It's about remaining consistent, keeping a good mindset and saying 'yes, it's great to win, but we also need to learn from the mistakes that we made in the first two games.'"
In addition to its competitiveness, the Big Ten is also known for its attendance at venues and thrilling atmosphere during matches. Freshman Simone Lee got her first taste of the Big Ten environment during the matches against Wisconsin and Minnesota this weekend.
"The crowd was cheering no matter what. It was electric in the air," Lee said. "But we did a pretty good job of tuning it all out and really focusing on the game and what we had to do to win."
The two matches were a good introduction into the Big Ten for Lee and many of the other freshmen. Lee said it prepared her for Penn State's match on Friday against Nebraska, a team whose facility is even louder and more energetic than Wisconsin and Minnesota.
The Bob Devaney Sports Center, where the Cornhuskers play, leads the nation in attendance. Rose said Cornhusker fans love their women's volleyball team and urge them on appropriately throughout the match.
"Nebraska is incredible. The best part is they don't cheer for technically Nebraska. They're all wearing red, but if the rally goes on forever, they cheer for volleyball. They cheer for good volleyball whether Penn State wins the rally or Nebraska does," Courtney said.
Not only is Nebraska a team with a consistently packed house, the Cornhuskers are among the nation's elite teams.
Coming in at No. 8, Nebraska is 2-0 in Big Ten play. Nebraska is a very athletic team with a physical style of play.
"They're a big team that's going to take a big swing and can count on another full gym to help them have the energy when times are tough," Rose said. "Nebraska won both matches last weekend, so they're in the same situation that we are heading into week number two."
Heading into their second weekend of Big Ten matches, the Nittany Lions' approach remains the same. The group understands the importance of playing at a high level every time it steps on the floor.
"Every weekend in the Big Ten you'd better be focused," Rose said. "You're playing teams that are ranked, you're playing programs that have great tradition or you're playing teams that need to bounce back after a tough weekend."

UNIVERSITY PARK, Pa. -- The journey to Penn State for Nia Grant was an interesting one. In middle school, she missed volleyball tryouts and instead decided she wanted to become a professional basketball player.
But that all changed when her mom brought her to a local gym near her Warren, Ohio, home to practice volleyball. The skills stuck, and Grant ran with it. She tried out for the team, made it and the rest was history.
Grant began her college search during the Christa Harmotto and Arielle Wilson era of Penn State women's volleyball. Watching the standout athletes win national championships and Big Ten titles, Grant knew she wanted to play for Penn State. When Grant and Wilson met, they quickly became friends and Grant found herself in Happy Valley very frequently to spend time with Wilson.
"I just loved [Penn State]. And it was where I wanted to be all of the time," Grant said.
Now, five years later, Grant is playing in her final season as a Penn State women's volleyball player. She has grown as a player over the last four years, especially from her junior to senior season. This season, Grant tallied 100 kills on a .525 hitting percentage during the non-conference slate. At that point last season, she had 53 kills.
But Grant said it's her mental game that has really improved.
"My mindset is different. Something clicked. Being good is a decision, and I need to be good," Grant said. "Everything just seems like it's falling into place."
This season, Grant has been playing with much more confidence, approaching the net with swings like never before. She said the confidence boost is the product of being a senior and understanding that she has a leadership role this season.
"Being a senior, having to play a big role, having a lot of freshmen and knowing that you have to teach them a lot of different things, I had to step up," Grant said. "And I feel really good about it."
Leading the freshmen is something that Grant has loved so far this season and said that she could not have asked for a better class of freshmen. But rather than telling the newcomers how to be successful as a Nittany Lion, she shows them.
"I hope more so that I lead them by example, rather than teach them anything with my words," Grant said. "They're an awesome group of girls."
With conference play kicking off this week, Grant and the other veterans have explained the nature of the Big Ten to the freshmen. They also have established goals to achieve as a team during the 10-week conference schedule.
"[We] just want to grow and win as many games as possible. I want the team to peak when we need to peak and just continually get better every day and keep working hard in the gym," Grant said.
Individually, Grant said she wants to improve her blocking during her senior season.
The Nittany Lions head to Minnesota on Saturday following a 3-0 sweep at No. 5 Wisconsin on Wednesday. Grant and the Lions are fired up for the Big Ten season.
"I'm really excited...I can't wait," Grant said.

Daybreak's P.M. stroll through the world of pop culture finds a provocative new photo campaign for a department store, trending - trendy - pants, a new tat for{}Lilo{}and much more.
CROSS DRESSER?: Per Rolling Stone, "Lil Wayne wore leopard jeggings to the VMAs the other night and, understandably, his wardrobe choice caused a media sensation. A Twitter account in the jeggings' honor was quickly erected, while speculation pondering the origins of his attire mounted in the style blogosphere. Soon, the finer details emerged: Weezy wore ladies' jeggings from legendary punk brand Tripp NYC, and you can buy them at Karmaloop for $44. Is this a trend about to take off?" http://bit.ly/p3lUb3
CHANGE OF HEART: Per the L.A. Times, "George Clooney and Grant Heslov were all ready to make "The Ides of March" (a dark story of backroom betrayals during a critical moment in a fictional presidential race) and then Barack Obama was elected. . . Such glad tidings didn't last long, particularly in Washington. As soon as the healthcare debate and the midterm elections polarized government and the nation once again, the filmmakers recognized that it was time to revive "Ides of March," which hits theaters Oct. 7." http://lat.ms/qnzufy
WE'RE ALL IN THE MOOD FOR A MELODY: Per TMZ, "They're both from Long Island ... they're both terrible drivers ... and now Lindsay Lohan and Billy Joel have something else in common ... his lyrics tattooed on her body -- and TMZ has the photo. LiLo rolled over to her favorite L.A. tattoo shop -- Shamrock Tattoos -- this week and got the words "Clear as a crystal, sharp as a knife I feel like I'm in the prime of my life" inked on her rib cage." http://bit.ly/qf0oaz
MOVE ALONG, FOLKS: Per the AP, "Marc Anthony is setting the record straight on his breakup from Jennifer Lopez in an upcoming exclusive interview tonight with ABC. Anthony tells ABC's "Nightline" that the crumbling of their marriage "wasn't something sensationalistic." http://apne.ws/rnehnD
IT AIN'T BRUCE AT THE STONE PONY: Per People, "Justin Timberlake put on a free, impromptu concert at the Southern Hospitality barbecue joint in Manhattan's Hell's Kitchen neighborhood. The guests included some famous fans, including Kim Kardashian, her sister Kourtney and husband Kris Humphries." http://bit.ly/oBAmAu
PLEASANT PICS: Per Us, "Cover your eyes, Mason! Kourtney, Khloe and Kim Kardashian stripped down for a new ad campaign to promote their clothing line, Kardashian Kollection for Sears. The racy shots, which were taken by famed photographer Annie Leibovitz, feature the siblings in an array of skimpy undergarments." http://bit.ly/qV8rvJ
TELLURIDE TEASE: Per indieWIRE, "Take a close look at the Telluride Film Festival lineup: These are films you'll be hearing a lot about over the next few weeks during a fall festival swing that begins in Venice, travels to Telluride and continues through to big-city fests in Toronto and then New York. For many movies on the roster, the journey even dates back to Cannes in May." http://bit.ly/qt6VMh
REMEMBER HIM?: Per Radar, "Joran van der Sloot was officially charged with the murder of Stephany Flores by Peruvian authorities on Thursday, RadarOnline.com is reporting. The Dutchman was arrested in June 2010 and has been held at Lima's run-down Castro Castro prison. Van der Sloot also remains the prime suspect in the disappearance of American teenager Natalee Holloway, who vanished at age 18 while on a graduation trip to the Caribbean island of Aruba." http://bit.ly/mZxPWm
POLITICO BLINK: "Legendary songstress Aretha Franklin will join the president in Detroit, Mich., on Labor Day.

It's a good thing our federal government is going on a strict spending diet to curb its out-of-control borrowing. Otherwise, the latest piece of spending legislation passed Monday worth more than $50 billion might have been substantial.
Good grief! Remember — how can any of us forget? — that long, hard fight President Obama just staged to squeeze more taxes out of wealthy Americans?
The top 2% wealthiest already pay 45% of the taxes. But Democrat Obama felt they needed to pay their "fair share," despite the risks that new taxation presents to creating real jobs for the rest of us, Obama already being employed for the next 1,452 days. But who's counting?
The Real Big Spender is off to Las Vegas this morning for a $1.5 million-plus photo op day-trip to sell his immigration reform ideas to a select audience that already likes it.
For weeks Obama traveled the country telling anyone who would listen and some who'd rather not that he's so absolutely positively determined to cut America's $16.4 trillion national debt that he did so much to grow. And he was insistent on milking money from the rich to do just that.
Well, guess what? That $50.4 billion spending bill for, among other things Hurricane Sandy aid, just ate up every single penny of that tax hike for this year, plus another $10 billion. That will go on the debt tab that the $40 billion in new taxes were supposed to start trimming slightly this fiscal year.
Obama is so happy about this new spending that he issued a special statement. Of course, he whined that the spending took so long — Wow, almost an entire month since the Republican House hesitated and then the Senate had to fight over filibusters.
But Obama promised that he would sign the bill "as soon as it hits my desk."
The three governors of New Jersey, New York and Connecticut — all Democrats, although Chris Christie used to feign conservatism — issued a joint statement, also complaining about Washington legislators thinking twice about spending that much of China's money.
They did express appreciation for the charity and especially thanked their congressional delegations for their "tenacious efforts" to get the money for the populous Democrat Northeast to rebuild.
Now, everyone sympathizes with those impacted by Sandy's devastation. And a growing number also sympathize with the pathetic response of Obama's FEMA, although for some reason the media was quicker to pick up on FEMA's Katrina failures under President Bush.
And these being 57 united states living under one flag, pretty much everyone would like to help Sandy victims, as they have victims of the Joplin tornado, Katrina and so many other natural disasters.
Obama was all for the rich paying their fair share of taxes. When do other Americans start sharing the financial sacrifices necessary to get us out of Obama's massive fiscal excavations? The three Democrat states of New York, New Jersey and Connecticut would — what? — disappear if they'd settled for $35 billion?
Nearly eight-in-ten Americans (77%) are disgusted by politics in the nation's capital, saying they damage the country, according to a recent Gallup Poll. Congress' approval rating struggles up into the teens on a good day.
Obama's isn't all that great either, which is why he keeps picking fights with Congress and anyone else in sight to create the appearance of political distance. The nation's chief executive couldn't sacrifice and do a Virginia photo op today, symbolically saving the minimum $1.5 million his cross-country junket will cost?
"Washington just doesn't get the severity of our fiscal condition," the Heritage Foundation's Matt Mayer told the Washington Times.
Americans realize the financial hole these D.C. pols got us in scratching each other's backs. But when will anyone stop bemoaning that hole and start filling it in? Somebody's got to be first to sacrifice their "fair share."
Of course, that would take leadership, not photo ops.

Last month's school shooting in Connecticut has helped create the most ripe conditions for new gun laws in Washington state in years. But lawmakers are starkly divided on how to prevent gun violence.
Ralph Fascitelli is used to seeing a couple dozen or so people show up at the events he organizes for Washington CeaseFire, a gun-control advocacy group.
More than 1,000 are expected to attend a downtown Seattle rally this Sunday.
"It's pretty incredible, the kind of attention that this issue is getting," Fascitelli said. "It hasn't been like this since, maybe ever."
The gruesome school shootings in Newtown, Conn., last month helped create the most ripe conditions for new gun laws in Washington state in years, according to advocates who plan to push a variety of measures when the Legislature convenes next week.

But it's unclear where the momentum will lead. Democratic leaders plan to revive longtime priorities such as banning so-called assault weapons and requiring background checks for purchases at gun shows. Some Republicans hope to go in a very different direction — reducing gun-free zones that they say make targets of the most vulnerable. And other lawmakers want to focus on reforming the state's mental-health system.
State Rep. Jamie Pedersen, a Seattle Democrat and chairman of the House committee that oversees gun policy, said there is bipartisan support for two measures: increasing the penalties for juveniles caught with guns, and expanding the state's ability to commit those deemed dangerous.
But Pedersen said he's not optimistic lawmakers will find the common ground to do much more.
Democrats control the state House and governor's mansion, but a coalition of 23 Republicans and two Democrats is expected to control the 49-seat state Senate. The coalition plans to assign chairmanship of the committee dealing with gun policy to Sen. Mike Padden, a Spokane Valley Republican with an A+ rating from the National Rifle Association, which generally opposes restrictions.
Rodney Tom, D-Medina, who next week is expected to be named Senate majority leader, said he is willing to consider gun proposals — but only if they do not distract from his coalition's stated focus on improving education, creating jobs and crafting a sustainable budget.
This Legislature's expected emphasis on finding more money for education — potentially at the expense of other programs — could also stymie policy proposals related to guns and the mental-health system.
Some lawmakers, including Tom, signaled that those proposals may be best dealt with through citizen initiative.
Sterling Clifford, a spokesman for Gov.-elect Jay Inslee, said Inslee supports "reasonable gun-control measures," including an assault-weapons ban and background checks at gun shows. But Clifford said he does not "anticipate any gun-control proposals originating in the governor's office."
Armed teachers?
GOP state Rep. Liz Pike helped to kick off the state gun-laws conversation last month with a widely read Facebook post that floated the idea of allowing teachers to carry guns in the classroom if they undergo training and pass a psychological evaluation. The program, modeled after one in place for airline pilots, would be voluntary.
Pike, of Camas, said she has been encouraged by the response, including more than 100 Facebook comments.
Joel Kretz, a fellow House Republican, said his party likes the idea of re-examining gun-free zones.
"When you hang out a sign that says 'Gun Free Zone,' an unbalanced person knows that they can shoot a lot of people before anybody stops them," said Kretz, of Wauconda, the caucus's deputy leader. "It's an invitation."
But Pedersen, the House committee leader, said he is not planning to give Pike's idea a hearing.
"It strikes me that it's likely very expensive and quite dangerous," said Pedersen, citing the potential for a student to overpower a teacher and for a teacher to inadvertently shoot a student.
Democrats are mulling their own proposals.
At the top of their wish list are a cap on the number of bullets a gun magazine clip can hold and a prohibition on so-called assault weapons, semi-automatic firearms that discharge quickly. An effort in the Legislature to ban those weapons failed in 2010.
They also want to require background checks and waiting periods for all purchases at gun shows. Currently, those are required at brick-and-mortar stores, but not when purchasing from a private dealer at a gun show.
"No questions are asked at a gun show," said state Sen. Adam Kline, who will be the ranking Democrat on the Senate committee tasked with gun policy. "It's crazy."
Kline, of Seattle, said he will introduce legislation to hold adults criminally responsible if a child gets hold of a loaded gun without supervision. That idea stems from accidental shootings last spring by children in Bremerton, Marysville and Tacoma.
Unclear prospects
Despite the post-Newtown dynamic, gun-rights advocates said they're hopeful they can defeat new restrictions.
Alan Gottlieb, chairman of the Citizens Committee for the Right to Keep and Bear Arms, noted that gun purchases have spiked since last month's shooting.
"Washington is supportive of gun rights," he said.
Others pointed to Padden, the expected incoming Senate committee chairman. Padden declined to comment, but a statement released by his office noted that "they have an assault weapons ban in Connecticut, and obviously, that didn't stop the killer." Some believe that people determined to commit violence will get around restrictions such as bans and background checks.
Another GOP committee member, Sen. Mike Carrell of Lakewood, Pierce County, said he instead will seek to address the problem by remaking the state's mental-health system. Among other ideas, he wants to make it easier for people to get attention from the system when a friend or relative seems at risk for violence.
There is broad theoretical support for reforming the mental-health system, but several lawmakers said it could be prohibitively expensive.
Ultimately, lawmakers and advocates said it's hard to predict what will happen this session.
"I think we have the best shot we've ever had of getting something passed," said Fascitelli, of Washington CeaseFire. "But it won't be easy. It's never easy on gun control."
