Women's Basketball Ivy Title Defense Opens with 84-53 Win at Penn
Box Score
The Princeton women's basketball team has not lost to Penn in its last 10 meetings and in the 75th matchup between both programs the Tigers' Ivy League title defense was not going to open with a loss to the Quakers to kick off conference play.
A 14-0 scoring run put the four-time consecutive Ivy champion Tigers up by double figures midway through the first half and from there it was all Princeton in an 84-53 victory Saturday at The Palestra. The win improved the Tigers to 10-5, 1-0 Ivy, while dropping the Quakers to 8-3, 0-1 Ivy and snapping their eight-game winning streak.
Penn opened with an early push, capitalizing on Princeton missing its first three attempts to go up 7-5 at 16:27.
In their second game in Philadelphia in seven days and fourth straight on the road, the Tigers responded with their crucial 14-point uncontested rally spanning over five minutes to go up 21-7 at 11:24. Princeton's lead would never decrease lower than 10 points over the remainder of the contest.
Blake Dietrick headlined the run with six of her 16 points in the game to score in double figures for the 11th time this season and seventh straight game. The junior point guard also recorded her first career double-double, as she finished with a game-high 11 boards over 38 minutes of work.
As Penn's defense hesitated it allowed a flowing Tiger offense to continue to capitalize, seeing Princeton's lead go as high as 15, 32-17 at 5:12.
With the pace of play under their control, the Tigers went into the break leading 38-25.
The second half saw Penn come within 10, 41-31 at 17:31, but Princeton responded with a 12-6 run to keep things out of range for good from the Quakers.
Senior co-captain Kristen Helmstetter, who had seven first half points, added 10 over the final 20 minutes finish with a game-high 17. She nearly had a double-double herself, collecting nine boards for second-best in the game.
Joining Dietrick and Helmstetter in double figures was Alex Wheatley, who had 11 points on 5-of-9 shooting from the field.
As a team, Princeton shot 43.9 percent (29-for-66) from the field to Penn's 30.5 percent (18-for-59). The Tigers also led in rebounding (48-37), assists (21-10) and steals (11-4), while only committing nine turnovers to Penn's 17 which they converted into 26 points.
Princeton will now take a break in play to complete first semester final exams before resuming Ivy play with Harvard (Jan. 31) and Dartmouth (Feb. 1) at Jadwin Gym.
Postgame Notes: Saturday's meeting was the 75th between Princeton and Penn … the Tigers have won the last 11 meetings … under head coach Courtney Banghart Princeton is 12-1 versus Penn … this was the fourth game in 2013-14 Princeton scored 80 points or more.

The Affordable Care Act and How it Affects You LEARN MORE
Each year, there are thousands of tax deductions and tax credits available to taxpayers, if you know where to look.
For example, if you have just one dependent child on your tax return you have the potential to qualify for a multitude of credits and benefits, including the Child and Dependent Care Credit, Child Tax Credit, Additional Child Tax Credit or the Earned Income Tax Credit. The Earned Income Credit and the Additional Child Tax Credit are refundable credits and can even put money back in your pocket!
There are also many options for tax credits or deductions if you, your spouse, or your dependent are going back to school. These include:
Other commonly overlooked deductions include:
Be sure you claim all deductions available to you and get all the tax benefits you deserve.
Whether your income level is high, low or somewhere in the middle, everyone will be impacted by the newly signed Healthcare Reform Bill. With so much confusion and misinformation, it's hard to know what the changes will do to your bottom line.
One of the most important things to know is that the revisions will roll out gradually over a span of 10 years, so you will have time to adjust slowly.
The first round of changes will impact your 2010 tax return:
• Medicare D Gap Closure Step One: A tax exempt, one-time only $250 payment for those taxpayers, 65 or older, who are affected by the Medicare Part D payment gap, commonly referred to as the "donut hole." The check will be sent automatically by Medicare as soon as the taxpayer hits the donut hole.
• Tanning Tax: As of July 1, 2010, there is now a 10% tax on the tanning service charge for individuals who use ultraviolet indoor tanning services.
• Revised Adoption Credit: The maximum credit will increase from $12,150 to $13,170 per eligible child. The increase is retroactive to January 1, 2010, so you may be able to claim the increase credit on your 2010 tax return if you adopted a child after January 1st. There are more details about the adoption credit in the article appearing at the bottom of this page.
The second phase of changes take affect for 2011:
• Tax-Free Medical Account Limits: Over-the-counter drugs are no longer eligible expenses for flexible medical spending accounts. Prescription drugs; however, will still be covered.
• Increased fines for Health Savings Accounts (HSAs) abusers: HSA and Archer MSA distributions used for non-qualified medical expenses are now subject to a 20% penalty. This is an increase of 10% and 5% respectively.
After 2011, the next major round of changes will take effect in 2013, with some of the most significant changes impacting higher income taxpayers. Joint filers with an AGI over $250,000 or single filers with an AGI over $200,000 may be subject to additional Medicare taxes:
• Wages - Medicare tax on earned income will increase from
1 .45% to 2.35% on incomes beyond the $250,000/$200,000 amounts.
• Investment income - A new 3.8% medicare tax on investment income over$250,000/$200,000, including interest, dividends, capital gains, rent and royalty income. Retirement account investment income is exempt.
Those are just a few of the many changes that taxpayers can expect to see over the next few years. Speak with your tax preparer if you have specific questions or need more information.
Increased Education Credits for 2010!
Through the American Reinvestment and Recovery Act of 2009 (ARRA), signed in early 2009, the credit formerly known as the Hope Credit has increased to a maximum of $2,500 of eligible expenses for the first four years of post-secondary education. This expanded credit, now called the American Opportunity Tax Credit, is available for tax years 2009 and 2010. The credit also includes the cost of books and software required for courses.
Other education-related deductions & credits include:
• Deductions for Required Software and Other Expenses: For tax years 2009 and 2010, the cost of Internet access and technology, such as laptop or desktop computers, are considered qualified distributions from a section 529 (college savings) plan. Students enrolled in an eligible institution can use tax-free distributions from the program to pay for these qualified education-related expenses.
• Lifetime Learning Credit: Available to individuals paying qualified tuition and related expenses at an eligible post-secondary educational institution. This credit is available in any year for as few as one class a year. A taxpayer cannot claim the Lifetime Learning Credit and American Opportunity Tax Credit for the same student in the same year.
Contact your local Jackson Hewitt office for more details about the American Opportunity Tax Credit.
Expanded Adoption Credit Available for 2010!
The expanded adoption credit included in the Affordable Care Act, raises the maximum adoption credit to $13,170 per child, up from $12,150 in 2009. In addition, the credit is now refundable, which means that eligible taxpayers can get the credit even if they don't owe taxes for this year!
The credit is based on certain expenses related to a legal adoption, including: adoption fees, court costs, attorney's fees and travel expenses. Income limits and other special rules apply.
In addition to filling out the required Form 8839, Qualified Adoption Expenses, eligible taxpayers must also include one or more adoption-related documents, which can be found on the IRS website: www.irs.gov.
Since adoption-related documents will have to be submitted with the tax return, the IRS requires all returns with Qualified Adoption Expenses be submitted as paper returns.
Taxpayers can still use IRS Free File; however, the returns must be printed out and mailed to the IRS, along with all required documentation. Ask your tax preparer for complete details.
Tax Updates for Small Business Owners!
As a small business owner, there are some important tax issues that you should be aware of this year that could impact your 2010 profit or loss reported on your tax return.
• Married taxpayers that operate a small business together may split the Schedule C income and expenses onto a Schedule C for each spouse if filing a joint tax return instead of being required to file a partnership return.
• The direct deduction for start-up expenses has been increased to $10,000 (up from $5,000).
• The business standard mileage rate has changed to $0.50 per mile from January 1, 2010 to December 31, 2010.
• The maximum section 179 deduction has been increased to $500,000 and the maximum property limits has been increased to $2,000,000.
• Special bonus depreciation of 50% of the basis of the asset is allowed for assets placed in serving during 2010. This special depreciation amount is added to the regular depreciation to increase the allowed deduction.
• You may deduct up to 100% of health insurance premiums if the plan is set up through your business, your spouse is an employee of the business and covered by the plan, and you are covered under your spouse's family plan. Amounts paid to cover your employee spouse is an allowed business deduction and excludable from the spouse's income.
• Self-employment tax may be adjusted for the cost of qualifying health insurance for self-employed taxpayers.
Questions? Contact your local Jackson Hewitt office for complete details.
Gifts that are given in 2009 and 2010, valued at under $13,000 are not required to be reported on a Gift Tax Return? Generally, there is no gift tax due until the taxpayer has given a lifetime maximum of over $1 million gifts.
The following gifts are exempt form annual limits: gifts to your spouse, charitable donations, political donations, tuition or medical expenses paid directly to an educational or medical institution for someone else's benefit.

Do You Qualify for the Home Office Deduction?
If you use a portion of your home for business purposes, you may be able to take a home-office deduction that could have a positive impact on your tax return!
To claim a business deduction for your home, you must use a part of your home exclusively and regularly:
• As your primary place of business, or
• As a place to meet or deal with patients, clients or customers as a routine part of your business, or
• A separate structure that is not attached to your home and is used in your business.
For certain storage uses, or day-care facility use, you are required to use the property regularly, but not exclusively.
The amount you are permitted to deduct depends on the percentage of your home that is used for business. Your deduction for certain expenses is limited if the gross income from your business is less than your total business expenses.
Different states have different policies on record keeping; contact your State Tax Authority for complete details.
Good Record Keeping Can Make All the Difference Next Tax Season!
Which records should you keep? And, for how long? Make sure you know all the facts, so you won't have any surprises at tax time!
Keep accurate records and tax time can be hassle free—even if the IRS selects your return for an audit. It's not too late to establish good record-keeping habits that you can practice all year long.
Keep these handy tips in mind:
• Tax records should be kept for three years after you file your tax return.
• Certain items, including home purchase or sale documents, stock transactions, Individual Retirement Account (IRA) and rental property receipts, should be kept longer.
• The Internal Revenue Service (IRS) usually doesn't require records to be kept in any specific manner; however, you should safely store any and all documents that may impact your federal tax return.
• Be sure to keep any records that would support deductions or credits that you claim on your tax return. These records include: bills, credit card and other receipts, invoices, mileage logs, canceled, imaged or substitute checks and proofs of payment.
For more detailed information on good record keeping, visit www.irs.gov or contact your local Jackson Hewitt® office.
Letter from the IRS? First...Don't Panic!
If you've received a letter from the IRS, it can be stressful. But, did you know that the IRS lists more than 50 different types of taxpayer notice letters on their website?

• Your refund check was returned to the IRS and they need an updated address
• You may qualify for the Additional Child Tax Credit and be entitled to some additional money
• The IRS needs documentation of your tax-exempt status
Many of these letters can be dealt with simply and painlessly. So, if you do get a letter, don't panic. Contact your local Jackson Hewitt Tax Service® office. We may be able to help.

New Tax Benefits for Hiring Unemployed Workers!
There are two new tax benefits available to employers who hire previously unemployed workers or workers who have been working less than full-time. The provisions are part of the recently enacted Hiring Incentives to Restore Employment (HIRE) Act.
Employers who hire unemployed workers between February 3, 2010 and January 1, 2011 may qualify for a 6.2% payroll tax incentive, which exempts them from paying their share of Social Security taxes on wages paid to these workers after March 18, 2010 and through December 31, 2010. The reduced tax withholding has no effect on the employee's future Social Security benefits and employers are still required to withhold the employee's share of Social Security taxes and income taxes.
Plus, new hires that are retained for at least one year, qualify businesses to an additional general business tax credit of up to $1,000 per worker when they file their 2011 income tax returns.
If you would like to find out more about this great tax incentive, visit the IRS website at www.irs.gov.
Earned Income Credit increases continue for 2010!
Qualifying taxpayers could be entitled to a credit of up to $5,666!
For tax years 2009 and 2010, there is an additional Earned Income Credit (EIC) range for taxpayers with three or more qualifying children.
Credit for 1 qualifying child—$3,050 (up from $3,043)
Credit for 2 qualifying children—$5,036 (up from $5,028)
Continuing for 2010! Credit for 3 or more qualifying children—$5,666 (up from $5,657)
Credit for taxpayers with no children—remains $457

It's not your imagination—studies show that women who complain of memory problems really do perform more poorly on tests of attention, working memory, "encoding," and verbal skills. These women also have more symptoms of depression, anxiety, and sleep disturbance. Women with lower levels of estrogen struggled especially with memory encoding, and these memory troubles probably have something to do with hormonal changes —the most abrupt of which happen in the months after a woman's last period.
The good news is that these menopausal memory changes are only temporary. Women's former memory levels usually return after the menopause transition is over. In the meantime, here are some suggestions for preventing and dealing with memory loss:
Use memory tools: Get help from calendars, to-do lists, and notes. Make remembering easy by returning wallets, purses, keys, and glasses to the same place each day.
Challenge that brain: Learn a new skill, a new language, or try a crossword puzzle or Sudoku. You can download a brainteaser app for brain-building on the go.
Get social: Spend time with friends and family whenever possible or volunteer in the community, a local school, or a retirement home. Social interaction has been shown to delay and prevent cognitive problems.
Get off the couch: Exercise and physical activity will help the flow of oxygen and nutrients to the brain. A recent study found that people with higher fitness levels in middle age were less likely to develop dementia later in life.
Eat brain-nourishing foods: Foods high in omega-3 fatty acids, such as salmon, albacore tuna, walnuts, and flaxseeds, are good for your brain. One study showed that those who ate a Mediterranean diet (full of omega-3s) were 13% less likely to develop memory and thinking problems.
Get lots of rest: For adults, 6 to 9 hours of sleep per night are recommended. Good sleep is essential for learning and memory.

One of the all-time great players in Penn men's basketball history, Jerome Allen became the John R. Rockwell Head Coach of Men's Basketball on March 30, 2010. Allen's ascension to the head coaching position was swift; he was originally hired in August 2009 as a volunteer assistant coach, but on December 14, 2009, he was promoted to interim head coach by Athletics Director Steve Bilsky.
"I have asked Jerome to help re-establish the identity of Penn Basketball," said Bilsky when he announced Allen's promotion from assistant coach in December 2009. "For decades, Penn Basketball has been a source of pride for the University, not simply for the successes but also for the embodiment of the Palestra creed: 'To win the game is great, to play the game is greater, but to love the game is greatest of all.' Jerome was an outstanding player who respects the game and loves Penn. I believe our student-athletes will benefit from his tutelage, and our fans will unite around him during this challenging time."
"Jerome's talents and accomplishments in life are noteworthy and familiar to the Penn community," said Bilsky when he removed the interim tag in March 2010. "What isn't as well known, until you spend time with him, is the humility that coincides with his pride. It is the combination of these qualities, plus his vision to return Penn to glory, that makes me so pleased to name him the John R. Rockwell Head Coach of Men's Basketball."
Allen's first two full seasons as head coach saw Penn make giant steps toward its return to Ivy League prominence.
In 2010-11, Allen's first full season as head coach, the Quakers went 7-7 in the Ivy League, a two-game jump from 2009-10, and finished in fourth place. Overall, Penn was 13-15, a seven-game improvement from 2009-10.
That surge continued in 2011-12. Penn went 20-13 overall, another seven-game jump in the win column and its first 20-win season since the 2006-07 Ivy League championship squad went 22-9. In Ivy play, the Quakers finished 11-3 and were in the hunt for the Ancient Eight title until the final game. Along the way, Penn defeated each conference foe at least once. Penn also played in the postseason College Basketball Invitational, defeating Quinnipiac in the opening round before falling to Butler in the quarterfinal round.
At the end of the 2011-12 season, senior guard Zack Rosen was unanimously chosen the Ivy League Player of the Year by the Ancient Eight coaches, and earned first-team All-Ivy for the third straight season. He was also one of 10 finalists nationally for the prestigious Lowe's Senior CLASS Award. Another senior, Rob Belcore, received honorable mention All-Ivy recognition.
The 2012-13 season saw Penn field arguably the most inexperienced team in the nation and in program history. Still, the Quakers managed nine wins including a victory over Ivy League champion Harvard. At the end of the season, junior Miles Cartwright earned second-team All-Ivy while freshman Tony Hicks received honorable mention. Three different freshmen -- Hicks, Jamal Lewis, Darien Nelson-Henry -- all received Ivy League Rookie of the Week honors during the season. A fourth player, Fran Dougherty, would be named second-team All-Ivy a year later, as a senior.
Allen, of course, is one of the most recognized names in Penn men's basketball history. A four-year starter, he led the Quakers to Ivy League titles in each of his last three seasons (1993-95), all of them coming via a perfect 14-0 conference mark. (Penn also won its last Ivy League game his freshman year, and went on to win its first five Ivy games in 1995-96, giving the Red and Blue a 48-game Ivy League winning streak that remains the conference record to this day.)
The 1992-93 squad went 22-5 overall, wresting the Ivy crown away from Princeton after the Tigers' four-year run before losing in the NCAA first round to Massachusetts. In 1993-94, Penn went 25-3 overall and earned an NCAA first-round victory over Nebraska before losing to Florida in the second round. In 1994-95, with Allen serving as team captain, Penn went 22-6 overall and again advanced to the NCAAs, losing to Alabama in overtime in the first round.
Allen was the Ivy League Player of the Year as a sophomore in 1992-93 -- sharing the honor with Columbia's Buck Jenkins -- and again as a junior in 1993-94, making him one of three Penn players to earn the honor twice. Allen also earned first-team All-Ivy and All-Philadelphia Big 5 three times apiece during his career.
When his Penn basketball career ended, Allen was the program's all-time leader in assists (504) and steals (166). He also scored 1,518 career points, which is currently sixth on Penn's all-time scoring list, and grabbed 482 career rebounds from his guard position.
Allen was inducted into the Philadelphia Big 5 Hall of Fame in February 2009.
Following his Penn career, Allen was a second-round draft pick of the NBA's Minnesota Timberwolves and spent two seasons in the NBA with Minnesota, Indiana and Denver. He then headed to Europe, where he enjoyed a stellar professional career before retiring at the end of the 2008-09 season.
Although this is Allen's first stint as a head coach at the college level, he is no stranger to life on the bench. The summer of 2007 he did an internship with the San Antonio Spurs, serving as an assistant coach on their summer league team that competed in the Las Vegas NBA Summer League and the Rocky Mountain Review in Salt Lake City, Utah. As part of that program, he participated in both practice instructing and game scouting.
In addition, Allen was awarded the head coaching position for Snaidero Basket (in Udine, Italy, roughly 45 minutes north of Venice), with whom he had previously played for four seasons. With that, he became the first person in 15 years to be promoted to head coach while still actively playing in one of the top European leagues (Italy, Spain, Greece, Russia, France, Turkey). Over the course of Allen's four seasons playing with Snaidero, the team qualified for the Italian Cup for the first time in history. Allen also enjoyed two-year playing stints in both Rome and Napoli.
Locally to Philadelphia, in 1997 Allen founded an organization called Brothers Embracing Brothers (BEB). In an attempt to convey the message of neighborhood involvement, BEB established a men's basketball league. Over the years BEB evolved and began working directly with the neighborhood youth. With a new mission in place, Hood Enriched was formed with the objective to cultivate the academic and athletic attributes of inner-city youth. The goal was to encourage self-assessment and development. With proper support and implementation, the program asserted that it could bring forth accomplished students, confident athletes, and productive citizens.
Using the motto "expect to be exceptional," student-athletes were exposed to educational analysis exams and monitored thereafter. In addition, the summer job program allowed participants to develop proper workplace behavior. Finally, the program's basketball department fostered self-development within team structure. Emphasis was placed upon mastering basic fundamentals in kid-friendly environments.
Through Hood Enriched, from 2003-05 Allen led summer basketball camps in Italy, with 36 kids from all parts of Philadelphia traveling to Latina, Rome, Bologna, Cessenatico, and Pesaro. These groups included current or former Division I players like Dionte Christmas (Temple), Parrish Grant (La Salle), Sammie Givens (Drexel), Shannon Givens (Drexel), Clayton Brothers (Hartford), Tywain McKie (Coppin State), Tamir Johnson (Central Conn.) and Khalif Foster (Robert Morris).
The Hood Enriched Summer Job Program also allowed four kids, over the course of four summers, the opportunity to work at City Hall for the Mayor's Action Center. And the program's Reading and Math Assessment, involving roughly 60 kids a year, made it a requirement once a week for the kids to attend both reading and math enrichment sessions. These classes were normally held on Saturday mornings.
Allen is a local product, having played his high school ball at Episcopal Academy. At Episcopal, he helped lead his team to four consecutive Inter-Academic League titles and was the Inter-Ac's MVP as a senior when the Churchmen went 27-2 overall.
Coach Allen and his wife, Aida, live in the Philadelphia area with their four children: twins Jerome (boy) and Taylor (girl), daughter Jordan, and son Roman.

Heading toward the determination of the winner of the 2013-14 Learfield Sports Directors' Cup, gostanford.com will provide a progression of each of Stanford's 19 consecutive victories. Here is the eighth, in 2001-02:
Directors' Cup No. 8 (2001-02) | 2001-02 Season In Photos
LONG BEFORE THE Cincinnati Reds of the 1970s, Stanford teams were known as The Big Red Machine. And never did Stanford's Big Red Machine reach full throttle as much as in 2001-02.
Stanford claimed its eighth consecutive Directors' Cup by scoring a record number of points (1,499) and winning by its largest margin (388.5) to date.
Stanford won four national championships (women's volleyball, women's tennis, and men's and women's water polo), a total of 11 teams finished among the top five in national competition, and 17 placed in the top 10. The Cardinal recorded points in the maximum of 10 women's and 10 men's sports.
This was a year full of athletes still recalled by knowledgable Stanford fans who can't help but smile at the memories: Teyo Johnson, Logan Tom, Casey Jacobsen, Nicole Powell, Carlos Quentin, Markus Rogan.
Rogan is the Austrian swimmer who captured NCAA titles in the 200-yard backstroke and 200 individual medley while leading Stanford to an NCAA runner-up finish. In the years since, Rogan won a 2008 world championship gold in the 200-meter back and a pair of 2004 Olympic silver medals, in addition to breaking the world record in the shortcourse 200-meter back.
Rogan was the 2001 winner of the Al Masters Award, Stanford's most prestigious athletic honor, but is perhaps better known in swimming circles for his "charmingly uncensored personality," according to one publication.
In a 2012 interview in the Daily Beast, Rogan said he drank blood before competitions. Yes, you read that correctly.
The reason?
"To turn a sheep into a lion," he said. "Swigging blood makes me feel like an animal. And it looks really cool."
Cool, undoubtedly, is in the eye of the beholder.
Two-sport star Teyo Johnson was a comet in the Stanford sky. Blest with extraordinary athletic ability, Johnson played football and basketball with a physical, spectacular style. However, Johnson spent only two seasons on The Farm before leaving for the NFL Draft.
As a freshman football player in 2001, he caught 38 passes for 565 yards and seven touchdowns as Stanford advanced to the Seattle Bowl against Georgia Tech, where he caught a leaping four-yard touchdown pass from Chris Lewis in a 24-14 loss.
Logan Tom was a two-time AVCA National Player of the Year and, at age 19, became the youngest player ever to be named to a U.S. Olympic volleyball team. Besides leading Stanford to the 2001 NCAA title as a junior, another big achievement was returning to Stanford more than a decade after her final season to earn her degree.
Tom would graduate with 1,939 career kills as the all-time leader at Stanford and her 171 career service aces ranked second in Stanford history. She has played on four Olympic teams.
* * *
More highlights from 2001-02:
• Goalie Jackie Frank earned national Player of the Year honors after leading Stanford to its first NCAA women's water polo title. The Stanford team also featured first-team All-Americans Ellen Estes and Brenda Villa under coach John Tanner.
• The Stanford women's gymnastics team, under first-year coach Kristen Smyth, advanced to the NCAA Super Six final for the first time in school history.
• Stanford beat UCLA, 8-5, in the NCAA men's water polo final before a soldout crowd of 2,226 at Avery Aquatic Center to complete the 25-year Stanford coaching career of Dante Dettamanti, who led the Cardinal to eight national championships.
• Jeremy Guthrie pitched a 13-inning complete game to beat Cal State Fullerton, 3-2, in an NCAA baseball regional opener.
• Tara Kirk won NCAA swimming titles in the 100- and 200-yard breaststrokes and Shelly Ripple won the 200 butterfly for Stanford's third-place women's team.
• Katie Norris won national solo and figures championships in synchronized swimming.
• The men's gymnastics team got NCAA titles from Dan Gill on the vault and Marshall Erwin on rings.
• The Stanford women's tennis team won its 13th NCAA team title, with help from Lauren Kalvaria and Gabriela Lastra, who combined to win the NCAA doubles crown.
• Lauren Fleshman won the indoor 3,000 meters and her second consecutive outdoor 5,000 for the Cardinal women's track and field team.
• Donald Sage won the NCAA 1,500 championship for the Cardinal men's track and field team.

1) Stanford, 1,499

4) North Carolina, 1,065.5

"This is very similar to my shredded pork recipe. I do just cook the pork tenderloin by itself in the crockpot all day, then shred (it is falling apart by then) it in the crockpot, add sauce and cook again all day (or all night) the next day. It is VERY tender that way, but this sounds like it would be a bit easier than making a day ahead."

ACE – End of Availability
VMware has announced the end of availability ("EOA") of VMware ACE, effective on December 31, 2011. No further orders for VMware ACE will be accepted after this date. VMware has also announced that all technical support and maintenance services for VMware ACE will cease on December 31, 2013 ("EOSL Date").
See KB Article 2009759 to read the customer announcement. General FAQs are available below. If you have additional questions not covered here, contact your VMware or VMware Reseller representative.
VMware ACE End of Availability & End of Service Life FAQs
What did VMware announce regarding VMware ACE?
VMware announced the end of availability ("EOA") of VMware ACE. This discontinuation is effective on December 31, 2011. No further orders for VMware ACE will be accepted after this date. VMware announced that all technical support and maintenance services for VMware ACE will cease on December 31, 2013 ("EOSL Date"). See KB article 2009759
Can I purchase more ACE Client licenses after the EOA date?
You will not be able to purchase VMware ACE Licenses after 12/31/2011.
Can I still get VMware ACE support?
You may continue to obtain technical support and maintenance for the VMware ACE product up until the EOSL date if you have a currently active VMware Support & Subscription service contract. You should continue to use the same support tools and methods for logging support cases.
What if my VMware ACE Support & Subscription service contract goes beyond the "EOSL" date?
If you have an active VMware Support & Subscription contract for VMware ACE that expires after the EOSL Date, VMware or your VMware Reseller representative will contact you regarding the unused portion of your contract.
Can I continue to use VMware ACE after "EOA" and "EOSL"?
Yes. You may use ACE for as long as the product continues to run. There is no licensing restriction that would prevent you from running your VMware ACE deployment indefinitely. There may be new operating systems such as Microsoft Windows 8 or hardware changes such as USB 3 that may prevent VMware ACE from working, so your timeframe may be determined by your rate of adoption of new technology and by the VMware ACE features you use.
Why is VMware ACE being discontinued?
While a small number of customers found value using VMware ACE, the product did not meet the needs of a broader market. The customer demand for ACE no longer justifies VMware's continued investment in product development, testing and technical support.
When did VMware make the decision to discontinue VMware ACE?
The decision to discontinue investment in VMware ACE was recently made after much thoughtful consideration. In 2010, VMware released VMware ACE 2.7 which contained a large number of new features and performance improvements, including Microsoft Windows 7 and Aero graphics support, to increase product adoption. After reviewing customer adoption and careful analysis over the past year, we decided that we could no longer continue to invest in VMware ACE.
Is there a migration or upgrade path from VMware ACE?
There is no upgrade or migration path from VMware ACE to another VMware product. VMware's current product portfolio does not include a product that is sufficiently similar to VMware ACE. VMware ACE customers should contact their VMware representative to suggest alternative solutions if their specific needs have changed. For example, VMware ACE customers interested in managing corporate desktops should consider Horizon View.
Will there be future releases of VMware ACE?
VMware ACE 2.7.5 which was released on October 4, 2011 is the last update of VMware ACE. At this time VMware does not plan to release any further updates.
What if I have further questions?
If you have any additional questions regarding your existing VMware ACE license(s) or support entitlements, please contact your VMware or VMware Reseller representative.

Reviews for Baked Lemon Chicken
"Very good! I seasoned the flour with lemon pepper seasoning and that was the only thing I did different. Very easy, will make again."
"The recipe was flavorful. I added a little more lemon based on reviews I read. The chicken turned out moist. We served this with rice. Overall easy recipe that is good for a work night."
"This chicken was awesome. I doubled the recipe to serve the 6 of us in my family. The lemon sauce was perfect. I didn't add the thyme since I don't really care for the taste. When I doubled the ingredients I only added 3 tsp. of basil which was plenty. I also cooked some basmati rice which was perfect when you poured some of the lemon sauce over it. This is an easy recipe and definitely a keeper."
"My family loved this! The chicken was tender and sauce smooth. I used a whole can of chicken broth and added a tad more flour to the mix. We are a saucy bunch!"
"nice citrus flavor"

Started directly under the power lines, easy enough to navigate first to Monument 231 then up to peak. Back to the car without incident, although on the drive on the dirt road out I passed a border patrol jeep, he picked up his binoculars and checked me out, I waved, he waved back. Then back on I-8 there was a border control check point, I was randomly selected for additional scrutiny for some reason, although that only consisted of a guard staring into my empty back seat for a few seconds before letting me continue on.

|I talked my brother's-in-laws to take me on this excursion while out in Laguna Hills for Thanksgiving. There were grumblings when they realized how long a drive it was. Two of my in-laws bailed when they saw it, and left just one brother-in-law, my son and I to hike the peak, while they checked out El Centro. Well, we were not on the correct route but still managed to find the peak and all the other bumps while not sure if we were in Mexico or not. Even went to the border marker. On the way down....gunshots!! Several bullets whizzed overhead. Automatic fire as well. I remember hitting the ground when the first ones came over. It turns out a group of pickups were parked lower in the sagebrush and a bunch of guys were cowboying it up with their guns. We were hunkered over the rest of the way down to the desert floor where my two brother-in-laws were waiting after a less than memorable day in El Centro.

|Was a little weird being by myself out there. Had to use GPS to find the correct peak. Found the smuggler marker and then tagged two other nearby peaks to make sure I covered the highpoint.

|Second time was actually quite the charm. My first attempt I was turned back since my family got nervous hearing the distant and frequent gunshots coming from across the border.
Beautiful day due to mild temperatures, light winds and really nice views to the west and south into ol' Mejico. Little dusty to the north and east due to the light Santa Ana conditions. Abundant game (illegal?) trails and my reliable GPS made finding the summit a snap. Made the token illegal excursion across the pathetic border fence to see Marker 231. Next task, finding the "back road" to Hot Springs Mountain. God bless Google Earth because I think I've found it!

Leaning on his black cane, Fujimoto Takashi, 64, struggles to pronounce words that convey the terror he felt the afternoon his basement apartment in Midland Beach, Staten Island, morphed into a whirlpool of chairs, refrigerator, motion and mementos.
Born in Hiroshima four years after the atom bomb was dropped there, Mr. Takashi already knew devastation first hand. He grew up believing, he said, that if he could make his way to the United States he would find a safe place to thrive.
For a long time, his plan seemed to work. Mr. Takashi moved to California in 1977. He developed a career as a photographer. And he later made his home in Staten Island.
Never did he suspect, he said, that a disaster spurred by nature and not by man would nearly kill him. But when Hurricane Sandy tore through Staten Island, the subsequent flooding inside his basement apartment electrocuted and nearly drowned him. It destroyed his health, his home and his means of making a living.
"Growing up in Hiroshima I helped other people and felt their pain; now others are feeling my pain," Mr. Takashi said. "Catholic Charities gave me the encouragement I needed to not give up."
Monday, October 29, began like most days, Mr. Takashi said. He was fixing a camera light plugged into the wall of in his Andrews Street apartment.
Suddenly he noticed water pouring in under his front door. He grabbed for the camera light plug.
But it was too late. Electrical currents bore through his right calf. They shot in one end, out the other and left a hole as their memento. He suffered a stroke, he recalled, then passed out.
He awoke to the taste of salt water, bouncing on furniture that floated five feet above the floor. His right arm and leg no longer functioned.
"Help me!" Fuji shouted.
Hurricane winds and neighbors' panic smothered his screams. Night came and went. Fifteen hours passed. Water receded. His energy waned.
Finally, at 10:30 the following morning, his landlord knocked on his door.
Much of what happened next is blur, he said. An ambulance rushed him to some hospital – he can't remember which. Later he was transferred to Staten Island University Hospital. For 38 days doctors treated burns that covered much of his body and physical and mental repercussions from his stroke. Finally, he was transferred to Golden Gate Nursing Home where therapists began teaching him how to walk again.
After two months in a hospital and rehabilitation center, he was released to go home.
But everything had changed. Hurricane Sandy stole much of his memory and mobility. It destroyed his photographic equipment, stealing his livelihood. And it tore apart his home, leaving his furniture, clothing – all he owned – rotting and covered with mold.
"When I came back home I had nothing," Mr. Takashi said.
His landlord gave him a blanket and an air mattress. But the mattress leaked.
"It was like sleeping on the floor," Fuji added.
Fortunately, an associate of Fuji's learned of his plight and called Catholic Charities for help.
Catholic Charities Staten Island has taken a leadership role in partnering with nonprofit organizations to speed services and support to residents of this borough devastated by Hurricane Sandy. From disaster-response professionals who visit parishes to deliver information and resources, to volunteers who collect and distribute food and supplies, to neighbors checking in on neighbors, the entire Catholic Charities community responded, providing help, creating hope and rebuilding lives.
Since Mr. Takashi's stroke left him wheelchair bound and confused, Catholic Charities Case Manager Marvin Walker visited him in his home. Mr. Walker helped Mr. Takashi apply successfully for a variety of grants and subsidies including new furniture from Project Hospitality, appliances from the Staten Island Back to Basics initiative, gift cards to cover necessities from the Siller Foundation, help paying heating bills from the federal Home Energy Assistance Program (HEAP), food stamps from the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) and disaster recovery financial assistance from FEMA. He helped Mr. Takashi apply for Access-a-Ride, bus rides catered for persons with disabilities. And he gave Mr. Takashi food from Catholic Charities food pantries along with clothing, pots, pans, utensils and other household necessities.
Meanwhile, Catholic Charities Volunteer Services paired Fuji up with Catholic Charities Anderson Avenue Senior Director Marni Caruso. She volunteered to drive Mr. Takashi during her personal time to medical appointments and meetings with the numerous government agencies that suddenly play a large role in his life.
Fuji's road to recovery remains long and difficult. He has progressed from wheelchair to walker to cane. Many memories remain hazy. His finances remain tight.
"I never thought I would have to depend on others," Fuji says. "But without Catholic Charities I couldn't have survived."
