Everyone knows about the Tulane football team's 12-0 season in 1998. And pretty much everyone knows about the success the Green Wave women's basketball team has had the last six years under coach Lisa Stockton. And most folks might be aware of the conference championships and consistent NCAA Tournament appearances turned in by coach Rick Jones' baseball squad. But what Tulane fans might not know is that Tulane has quietly been one of the top schools in the nation for men's and women's tennis. And while the Green Wave has had solid tennis teams in the very recent past, the very near future is looking better and better.
To understand the present state of Tulane tennis, it helps to understand the past. For years, Tulane was perhaps the preeminent school for men's tennis in the nation. Between the founding of the SEC in 1933, until Tulane's departure from the league in the late 1960's, the Green Wave men's team won 18 conference championships and won 61 individual league champions. The Wave won the 1959 NCAA title, to this date the only team national championship in Tulane history, while finishing as national runners-up in 1949 and 1957. In short, when you thought of college tennis, you thought of Tulane. With the death of legendary head coach Emmett Pare in the mid-1970's, the team understandably declined. Oh, the team was still moderately successful year-in and year-out, but not at quite the same national level.
It was at about this time, the mid-1970's, that women's tennis made its debut at Tulane. And while the Green Wave women never achieved the same national stature as those early men's teams, the squad had its share of success. For the rest of the 1970's, throughout the 1980's and even into the 1990's, it was the same for both teams - good, solid seasons each year, but nothing extraordinary.
Things have changed for the better, though. With the addition of Robert Klein as the head of the men's program and with David Schumacher taking over the reigns of the women's program, things are looking up indeed. In 1998, both teams made the NCAA Tournament, making Tulane one of just a handful of schools to have both its men's team and its women's team reach the post-season.
"We are moving in the right direction," Schumacher said. "But we're not satisfied. In the last few years, the women's team achieved its first-ever national ranking, and now we are a Top 50 team. We definitely want to keep improving. Recruiting is a big part of it. Success breads success. With a good ranking we can recruit better players. And with better players, our ranking will only go higher."
Klein expressed similar thoughts. "At a minimum we want to accomplish what we did last season. This year will only be a success if we compete for a Conference USA championship and get an NCAA berth. Last year we had a good year, but we want to improve."
The 2000-01 campaign promises to bring another successful season for both Green Wave teams. The Tulane women return virtually its entire line-up from last season's squad that posted a 14-9 record and a third-place finish at the Conference USA Tournament. And though the Wave just missed out on a trip to the NCAA Tournament, the experience last season's young team earned will prove invaluable.
"The girls have been working really hard," Schumacher said. "They are all playing some of the best tennis I've seen them play. They are all determined competitors that fight hard and they work hard in practice every single day. We are in the middle of the Fall tournament season, where the players play individually, and so far the results have been outstanding. We're disappointed we didn't make the NCAA Tournament last year, but hopefully we can take the guess-work out of it by getting the automatic bid from winning the Conference USA Tournament. We have been in a good position the last few years and hopefully that experience of being close will help."
The Tulane men, on the other hand, feature a line-up filled with newcomers. Despite losing its two of its top three singles players, the Green Wave should once again be in a position to challenge for an NCAA berth. The Tulane men also finished third at last season's Conference USA Tournament, but look to return to the form that saw them win the 1997 league title.
"We had a good recruiting class and it is the largest in school history," Klein said. "By the time January rolls around, seven of our 10 players will be newcomers. We really need them to contribute right away, but they are all accomplished players who should add a lot to the team."
Both squads regularly play some of the toughest competition in the nation, and this season will be no different. Both schedules are a regular list of who's who in college tennis. The Green men will face the likes of Michigan, Miami, Baylor, Oklahoma, SMU, Michigan State, TCU, Tennessee and Arkansas, as well as appearing in the prestigious Blue-Gray Classic. In addition, the men will play host to the 2001 Conference USA Tournament, April 19-23, at the Goldring Tennis Complex. The Green Wave women have also put together an impressive schedule and will meet Penn State, Florida State, Arizona State, Vanderbilt, Arizona, SMU and rival LSU, among others.
The highlight of the Fall season for both teams, however, come on back-to-back weekends at the end of October. Each team will host its own tournament at the Goldring Complex. The men's tournament, the Tulane Invitational, is set to begin on Friday, Oct. 22 and will run through Sunday, Oct. 24, while the Green Wave Classic, the women's tournament, will start on Friday, Oct. 27 and wrap up on Sunday, Oct. 29.
"Our tournament gives us a chance to measure ourselves against the top teams from this area. And it is a good chance for our players to play at home against the top players from LSU, Arkansas, Louisiana-Lafayette and Southern Miss, among others. In the spring we have 15 nationally ranked teams on our schedule, including Tennessee and Baylor at home. And both were Top 10 teams last year. Our players will get to see the very best of college tennis this year, and many of the matches will be at home."
Added Schumacher, "I believe you have to have a schedule that allows the best players to play against people on the same level. We were a little surprised that we were able to schedule as many top teams as we were. Arizona State was No. 3 last year. Vanderbilt, South Alabama, TCU, Florida State... They were all top teams last year. Our tournament will be a good tournament. South Alabama should be bringing their top players. LSU and Mississippi should be bringing their top players. You are not going to find a stronger women's tournament in the area."
With the goals and expectations that each coach has set for his
program, there is little doubt that Tulane could be at the top of the
college tennis world again soon.

Attention calling all fashionistas, the designer jeans, tanks and tee's wearing kind of gals. This fashion trend is just in, and it's head-wear. No, not the ubiquitous baseball cap, that we don on so-called "bad hair" days. But the cute, and cowgirl in the city type. Try a few pieces from True Religion Jeans wear, as they bring remnants of the winter into the summer. New cashmere and alpaca wool crocheted berets, in tie-dyed pinks, purples, and blues. All the rage of the city and the runway this spring. Why have a bad hair day, when you can rock a bad ass hat on any day? (Except to the office of course.)
Feeling a little more grunge than Parisian? Try the True Religion beanies in cable knit, and solid wool stripes. Ranging from earth tones to fuchsia pinks all adorned with the famous horseshoe logo. Showcase your luscious locks, and keep that rocking blond shimmering, as you shield and showcase your tresses in these stylish caps. Not a hat girl? Try these other cool accessories: metallic and earth toned wallets, coin-purses, and cool kick ass canvas sneakers.
Love the winters' fashions, and the spring's warmth? Bring a little spring in your step with these leather riding boots. Think it's too hot for boots? Pair them with a floral dress, vest, and a little summer jewelry. Or go rustic and woodsy with the Raffia cowboy straw hat, top it off with a pair of distressed bermuda shorts, your favorite tank, thin dangle earrings, and a simple flat, or studded sandal.

The Best 2012 Cars
List Criteria: 2012 model year cars only
The best cars of 2012 didn't just get us where we need to go but they also saved us gas money and looked stylish while doing so. These top-rated 2012 cars were selected by experts and consumers alike as the best of the year for their quality, value, fuel efficiency or just plain good looks.
Similar to the best cars of 2011, many of the top cars if 2012 were produced internationally or from non-American manufacturers. Toyota continued to dominate with their Camry Hybrid, the RAV4, Prius 4, and Corolla just as Honda did with their Fit and Hyundai with their Sonata.
But it wasn't all imports dominating the conversation of best 2012 rides with Motor City standbys like Ford, Chrysler and Chevrolet still among the elite. The 2012 Ford Mustang and Ford Focus were among the best 2012 cars as named by "Car and Driver." Kelly Blue Book singled out the Chrysler 300 as a premiere full size luxury sedan. Even the Chevrolet Cruze and Cadillac Escalade earned honors from U.S. News and World Report representing different ends of the fuel efficiency spectrum.
So whether you're smitten with the sexy (and pricey) 2012 Porsche Cayman, the competitively priced subcompact Ford Fiesta Hatchback or that 2012 best family vehicle quality of the 2012 Toyota Highlander SUV, surely one of these best 2012 cars will suit your fancy.

It is considered a Tropical spider fairly widespread throughout Queensland and commonly found in Carins, Tully, Brisbane and Northern and Central parts of Australia. It is also found in New Guinea. This is the common species of the Theraphosidae family found in Australia. There are at least 4 kinds of the species found here. These spiders live under logs or in burrows which are 3cm wide and 60cm deep, which they line with silk. Sometimes a loose web is made around the entrance.
Bird Eating Spiders kill their prey by pouncing on it and injecting venom. They eat insects, lizards, frogs occasionally, small birds and other spiders (particularly the Lycosa species). All food is captured in the area near their burrows. As they have no teeth, they rely on digestive juices to dissolve their food. This is quite amazing.
The Bird Eating Spider is a type of Trapdoor Spider and they breed similarly to the Trapdoor. The female lives up to 10 years or longer. She spends most of her life in or close to the silk lined burrow. The male lives in a burrow too but leaves it when an adult for mating. Soon after mating the male usually dies. The female lays her eggs and sticks the egg sac in a special part of the burrow. The egg sac is 35mm by 30mm and oval in shape. It is thicker at the center and is very white. It's made of tough silk. The eggs are 2mm in diameter and are translucent. They are a rich yellow colour. The female lays 48 eggs. The young stay with their mother before wandering away. They are about 10mm long in the body when they leave the burrow. In late September to the end of October mating takes place and females are usually found with egg sacs in November to December.
The bite from one of these spiders is potentially dangerous for they have fangs that grow up to 10mm in length with a diameter of 2.5mm at the base. These are great weapons. When provoked, they rear up and strike downwards. The penetration of such large fangs without venom (which is known to be very toxic) is dangerous in itself. These are powerful spiders.
The largest spider of this family has a body 60mm long and a leg span of 160mm and is almost the size of a man's hand. Bird Eating Spiders are covered with velvety hairs and have small eyes in a clump on the front of their head. Their legs are covered in long hairs. They have claw tufts which enable them to run up smooth surfaces.

Dazed and uncomfortable
Poor baby, he's not feeling very well tonight and he's still half dazed from the anesthesia but I'm sure he'll feel better in the next day or two. I appreciate the comments and emails – I am always anxious and upset until he is home.
On a quilty note, one other task I finished today was the edging on this simple postcard. It's doing double duty this month — going to my cousin's daughter for our family exchange and it's my interpretation of Vicki's theme for November. I'm thankful for SO many things and certainly this isn't the most important but Keith and I were just talking this weekend how thankful we are for changing SEASONS. Although this card just depicts fall, having 4 distinct seasons is one of the things we love best about Minnesota.
Chesty's surgery went well and I spoke to the Vet a little while ago. They were able to do a minimally invasive surgery to get the stones and we'll be able to pick him up tonight between 7 – 8 PM. Now he'll just need a couple weeks of good nursing care and he should be back to normal (hopefully).
I've got my Aunt's quilt loaded and have the quilting started. I'm thrilled that I'm able to do a pantograph on this one — Mom wasn't sure how large the tops would be (there are 2) and I was afraid that it would reach to the edges of my table but I have a few inches to spare.
Working while I wait
A couple quilts trimmed, a binding made and stitched onto the quilt, a backing pieced, and unlike my usual pace of taking 2-3 days to assemble blocks into a top, I got all the brown centered HeartStrings blocks assembled this morning.
Now I need to stop stalling and go down and load one of my aunt's tops on the longarm.
Now we wait
Thanks again for all the good wished for Chesty. I took him in early this morning and now all I can do is wait.
I spoke to the Vet on Friday and it looks like Chesty is probably not a good candidate for Lithotripsy and most likely they'll do a *mini* procedure on Monday — kind of like a laparoscopic type procedure with just a small incision for the cystoscope. Chesty would be embarrassed for me to share this but his small penis is an issue here as well as the number of stones.
At any rate, he goes in Monday morning and they'll do the least invasive procedure needed to remove the stones.
On a more quilty note, I finished my brown centered HeartStrings blocks and will assemble the top over the next few days.
Another one of Pat's tops quilted
This one a RWB HeartStrings and one of my favorites. After playing in my pantograph box this past week I was ready for some freehand fun so it's quilted with a swirly version of Dwirling from the Pajama Quilter DVD.
I'm also still working on my brown centered HeartStrings blocks.
I lucked out here
Thanks for all the feedback — I'm leaning toward Version A which seems to be the overall favorite although I really think either would look OK.
I'm actually kind of thrilled that they chose this one since I had already pieced the quilt. It will be easy to add borders and then quilt it and I still have lots of time – I'm not a big fan of making large bed quilts. For those of you who don't remember seeing it — here's a partial shot of the top — it's big even without the borders and I didn't have space to get a full photo of it.
And for those of you checking up on Chesty — his procedure/surgery is scheduled for Monday. They'll attempt to remove the stones via lithotripsy but will have a surgical team standing by if needed. I'm hoping for the best.
Finally, it's funny but Keith and I have a bit of a different perspective on the baby — he tells people that HE'S going to be a grandpa….I tell people that Adam is going to be a Dad. I guess I'm still adjusting to it the idea of my baby becoming a father but Adam is excited and that's what matters most.
A wedding quilt AND a baby quilt
Or maybe a baby quilt and THEN a wedding quilt. I'm not quite sure the order I'm going to need these but I'm working on designing borders for the Stars & Pinwheels quilt to bring it up to queen size. So which do you like better?
Version A
Version B
And just in case you were wondering, it's my son Adam and his girlfriend Lindsey who are expecting.
A quiet afternoon
After getting a haircut, I'm sitting in a quiet corner of the library with my computer and a cup of coffee. It's a great place to come work when I start going stir crazy from being home too much.
Diamond strings
Top pieced by Pat and quilted with the pantograph Blowing Leaves by Dave Hudson. Pat participated in our HeartStrings Diamond Strings project – she chose to make fewer blocks and add borders unlike my top that uses more blocks and no borders. Instructions for both can be found at my MaryQuilts.com site.
A close-up of the quilting on the back.
And here's a full view of the pieced back — one of many sent to me by Tish for HeartStrings quilts.

Fashion Tips In Wearing Cowboy Hats
Cowboy hats are an excellent way to make a fashion statement. In addition, they can also be quite useful during the hot sunny weather and prevent you face from getting sun burns. There are a few features that make these hats unique.
These hats have a crown tip that is normally creased. It has a deep down the middle to give it the unique western look. However, there are different forms of creases that you can find. This can help you get a distinct appearance and also ensures that all the hats do not look similar. There are some with double creases while others have a single crease.
Certain Features and Characteristics
These have names that you can use to describe the kind you want when going for cowboy hats for sale. There is the cutter, cattleman, show crease, dakota and reiner among others. Most professionals know the names of each hat, but if you are not sure you can just take a picture along or give a detailed description.
The sideband of the hat is never plain. There are some that have a string tied around them to fall on the brim while others simply have a band of material. There are some which have a woven leather decoration placed here instead. These hats also come with a few decorations such as bows and sometimes even a buckle placed on the side. Instead of being circle, the sideband normally has an oval shape.
Cowboy hats get their characteristic looks from the shape of the brim. This is normally elongated at the front and at the back. This is why many people love to wear it during the sunny season. The long brim at the front keeps the harsh sun off the face. The edge of the brim also bends and normally dips towards the middle of the face and lifts at the edges. The same dip is replicated at the back to make it symmetrical.
Common Used Materials
Cowboy hats are available in different types depending on the shape and the material used to make them. One of the types includes those made from felt. These are normally worn during special occasions since they are deemed to be of higher quality. They are quite popular in modern fashion and they are available in different cowboy hat designs.
There are also those made from leather although these are not so common. One of the cheap cowboy hats you can get is that made of straw. This is very light and can be worn a lot without you getting tired. Since straw is also porous, it allows air to pass through easily so you can wear it throughout without sweating. Straw cowboy hats are popular among both men and women.
All these kinds of cowboy hats are best accessorized with jeans outfit and boots. The pair of boots complete the look and are also quite comfortable. They can be worn both in hot and cool weather indiscriminately. Ostrich boots are quite popular since they work well with the entire cowboy outfit.

When ever it is feasible try to minimize utilization of usb attachments like optical DVD/CD drivers or players, lead to draw a lot of energy to operate. Detach these optical devices and USB tools have the highest precedence to drain the battery capacity. Detach all other external devices suchlike an external mouse, fire wire, PC cards, Wi-Fi box, Outside speakers, Pen Drives bluetooth and even the connected iPod.
Both Hibernate and Suspend techniques are for saving power of this Li-ion rechargeable battery but, commonly laptops consumes a lot of Li-ion Battery Power in the SUSPEND method. We don't know those reasons although "instant-on" takes 30-60 second's extra period of time to go away from hibernation method. This little quantity of period represents a significant blow on the total Notebook Battery pack life duration. When in the hibernate mode in & out are more convenient & effective than a usual start & shutdown activity. When in hibernate mode the shutdown process grants a possibility to pause current activity instantly with the power-off and in start up operation it can move with in a few seconds entirely, Thus hibernate mode saving power. Although suspend mode reduces the energy usage of ours notebook by not supplying the energy to hardware peripherals those you are not using. Therefore by applying hibernate method you can saves the Li-ion Battery power. We can put a shortcut for hibernate instead of the extensive process (one time carrying out this manual task in Control panel after that make use of the created shortcut by Pressing "Win button" followed by U followed by H). If we have some particular work at outer for longer time, in that circumstances use the hibernate mode as an alternative using stand by mode.
Each Notebook customer need to achieve the Dell latitude PP01L notebook battery end as long as feasible. But each laptop battery has a Limited life time. There fore if we can go through the above listed beneficent Li-ion battery tips that will work to increase Notebook Battery pack life period.

Tinea versicolor is a common fungal skin infection characterized by lighter or darker patches on the skin. Patches are most often found on the chest or back and prevent the skin from tanning evenly. It occurs mostly in adolescence and early adulthood, but it can occur at any time.
Usually, the only symptom of tinea versicolor is the white or light brown patches. Patches may scale slightly, but rarely itch or hurt. Other common characteristics of the rash include the following:
The symptoms of tinea versicolor may resemble other skin conditions. Always consult your physician for a diagnosis.
Tinea versicolor is usually diagnosed based on a medical history and physical examination. The patches seen with this condition are unique, and usually allow the diagnosis to be made on physical examination. In addition, your physician may use an ultraviolet light to see the patches more clearly. Also, your physician may do skin scrapings of the lesions to help confirm the diagnosis.
Specific treatment for tinea versicolor will be determined by your physician based on:
Treatment usually includes the use of dandruff shampoo on the skin, as prescribed by your physician. The shampoo is left on the skin overnight and washed off in the morning. To be effective, the shampoo treatment may be required for several nights. Tinea versicolor usually recurs, requiring additional treatments. Your physician may also prescribe topical creams or oral antifungal medications. It is also important to know that improvement in the skin may only be temporary, and a recurrence of the condition is possible. Your physician may also recommend using the shampoo monthly to help prevent recurrences. The treatment will not bring the normal color back to the skin immediately. This will occur naturally and may take several months.

Universoul Circus performers support Kansas City youth organizations who rally against violence
KANSAS CITY, Mo. - UPDATE: Kansas City, Mo. Police dispatch say a pair of fights among the crowd at the Stop the Violence rally from 39th and Prospect to 31st and Prospect forced officers to disburse the crowd early.
Dispatchers say no injuries were reported, but the crowd was told to head home at 8:09 p.m.
Universoul Circus and orgs rally against violence
Tuesday night the Universoul Circus joined the Ad Hoc Group Against Crime for the "Your Life Matters" Youth Parade and Rally.
It started at 39th Street and Prospect in Kansas City, Mo., and ended with a rally at Linwood Shopping Center at Prospect near 39th St.
"Well, everyone's life matters. No one needs to be getting shot," Ka'Vyea Tyson, the grand marshal of the parade, said.
Ka'Vyea was shot earlier this year at a gas station. He survived and is learning to walk again . His father was killed in the same shooting.
Some young people marching in the band with the group hope people will embrace their message of non-violence.
"We need to stop killing people and hurting each other like Dr. Martin Luther King said," Irvin White, 13, said.
Fourteen-year-old Rejuan Campbell explained young people are the future leaders, doctors and moms and dads.
"We need to stop the violence because life matters," Campbell explained.
The group is hoping this message will go be on the Kansas City. They're asking people to use #YourLifeMatters in their social media posts.

CD Projekt Red's open world action RPG The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt, initially slated for release later this year, will now launch in February 2015, the developer announced today via their official website.
The studio explained why the delay was necessary, saying they hope to "expand creative boundaries, set new benchmarks [and] develop the genre as a whole" with the game, however, at the cost of additional months of development time.
"We recently reexamined what we had achieved thus far, and faced a choice about the game's final release date," the post reads. "The decision we made was difficult, thoroughly considered, and ultimately clear and obvious. We could have released the game towards the end of this year as we had initially planned. Yet we concluded that a few additional months will let us achieve the quality that will satisfy us, the quality gamers expect from us."
The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt will be available on PlayStation 4, Xbox One and PC.
In an exclusive interview with Examiner last month, CD Projekt Red explained why the game would not be possible on last-gen consoles, saying they were "limited" by the hardwares computational power.
The Witcher 3 is the final chapter in Geralt of Rivia's trilogy; players will walk in his shoes one last time as he searches for the dangerous force known as the Wild Hunt.

How did it happen? ( I mean, the broken wheel )The 1'st CA Enduro series event at Reno (Peavine Mtn.) was a lot of fun but the Mach 6 was too much bike, thus not really my riding style preference. A 4-5" Trail bike could have dominated the course. I pedaled my butt off and came in 7'th out of 19.
Last weekend was race 2 at China Peak. A 3-stage course that with lots of super loose, sharp & rocky switchbacks and a nice technical rock garden section. I ran stage 1 & 2 in trail mode on the shock and Pedal mode on my 160mm Pike. Opened them both up for the rock garden on stage 3 and wound up getting a 2'nd place finish, super stoked.
A bit bummed about the broken Carbon wheel on the pre-ride, but glad it didn't happen on race day. I was running 26-30 PSI and still feel it wasn't enough for the rocky sections. Waiting to here how NOX will handle the wheel...Warrantee or discounted crash replacement (I didn't crash!) Fortunately I brought a backup Aluminum wheelset.
Funny that out of roughly 250+ participants, mine has been the only M6 at race 1 & 2. I've seen a handful of new Nomads, which will probably kill the next event at Northstar and the following event at Mammoth, I've been hoping to share some Pivot stoke, but no luck yet!

Flattened fauna of sidewalks - Part 3
In this installment, I have a series of arthropods seen dead on sidewalks, but not necessarily flattened. When I am out taking a walk, I tend to keep my eyes on the ground lest I miss something interesting; now it's becoming an obsession to search for dead animals on the sidewalks.
We start off with a daddy long-legs spider.
The next victim looks like a bee of some sort.
Followed by a grasshopper that may have gotten hit by something, a car perhaps.
Today's last victim is a squished bug that I photographed about a month ago. It was probably a casualty of human indifference to or dislike of things that crawl under our feet.
There were many similar looking live bugs running around on the sidewalk. I photographed one and posted its picture on BugGuide.net.
It got identified as Boisea trivittata (Eastern Boxelder Bug). It is indeed a true bug (Heteroptera).

O'Grady will be joining the Laker staff for the
upcoming 2014-15 season and will serve as a volunteer assistant

We are excited to face the challenges of this new season."
During his undergraduate studies, O'Grady was also a volunteer goaltender coach with Gilmour Academy's Girls Prep Hockey Team.

March 11, 2014
MINNEAPOLIS -- The University of Iowa diving team was back in the University of Minnesota Aquatic Center Tuesday for the second day of the 2014 NCAA Zone D Diving Championships. Tuesday featured the men competing on the 1-meter springboard while the women dove off the 3-meter springboard. Redshirt Junior Abby Grilli paced the team to an 11th place finish for the women.
"Today was another great day of competing for the Hawkeyes," said UI diving coach Todd Waikel. "Brandis had a lifetime best and Abby just missed qualifying for NCAA's. I look forward to our divers who are competing up on the tower tomorrow."
Grilli qualified for the finals in 10th place, accumulating 317.00 points. In the finals, Grilli scored 307.25 points over six dives for a cumulative score of 624.25 and an 11th place finish. Fellow redshirt junior Joelle Christy fell just short of qualifying for the 18-person final during prelims, finishing in 21st with 274.15 points.
Freshman Brandis Heffner just missed out on qualifying for the finals of the men's 1-meter competition, finishing in 19th place with 314.30 points, a new season-best. Sophomore Addison Boschult came in 22nd during qualifying, finishing with 311.75 points.
Both the men and women will wrap up the three days of competition Wednesday, with both teams competing on the platform. The women will begin qualifying at 10:30 a.m. (CT), with finals taking place immediately following, while the men begin qualifying at approximately 12:45 p.m.

A mother and her baby are dead in a bizarre case that is surrounded by more questions than answers. This Wednesday report (8/13) shares that Kayelisa Martin committed suicide after her young child died mysteriously. Baby Omoyele Gonzalez, 14-months, passed away in their home earlier the same day, but no cause of death or previous signs of abuse could be found by a coroner. This indicates that the cause of death will be revealed by a toxicology report -- and the results are pending.
It was reportedly quite the traumatic day for this woman's loved ones. She was threatening suicide, and a family member had to flee to a nearby fire station to report that the child was dead under suspicious circumstances. Clearly under a great amount of distress, Kaylelisa threw herself into an oncoming semi truck -- which killed her. Some media reports are sharing what could be a history of child neglect with the mother -- such as a recent car accident she got into with the child where she was cited for failing to reasonably control her vehicle. If a toxicology report reveals that the child had something in his system that killed him, this could be the result of negligence -- which may inspired the young mother to commit suicide. There are tons of questions being asked about Kaeylisa and Baby O -- such as whether or not she was pregnant when she killed herself (judging from a photo of an ultrasound in front of the child) and whether or not drugs may have been left lying around the home where he died. The facts of the matter are simple: We just don't know all the details.
Hopefully the toxicology reports come out soon, but until then it's easy to speculate on some of the various ways this child could have died. Even though no signs of trauma or past abuse were found on Baby O, it's also important to note that a baby can die of suffocation without there being any signs of the attack left by the killer. There are numerous cases in history that involve these "mysterious deaths" -- including the notorious case of the "SIDS mom" Waneta Hoyt -- who was actually a serial killer of her own offspring. The child could have also gotten into some kind of poisonous substance that was around the house -- not including illegal drugs. It had been mentioned in one article about the car accident that Kayelisa and her son got into recently. Is it possible that Kayelisa had painkillers resulting from the wreck, and the child somehow got into them? That's just a thought, but again, anything is probably in a case that is as mysterious as this one.

Ed Conroy is 2-1 in season openers at Tulane
Nov. 7, 2013
NEW ORLEANS - They've been practicing since Sept. 27 and they've won their lone exhibition game, but on Friday night, the Tulane men's basketball team tips off the 2013-14 season for real when they host New Jersey Institute of Technology (NJIT) at 8 p.m. CT at Fogelman Arena in Devlin Fieldhouse.
The game, the second half of a double header with the Tulane women's team, can be heard live on Tulane IMG Sports Network (WMTI 106.1 FM "The Ticket" in the New Orleans area) and will be streamed online at www.tulanegreenwave.com.
The athletic department will host a tailgating party outside Devlin Fieldhouse starting at 4:30 p.m. CT and will have free hot dogs and drinks. The tailgate will end approximately the time of the women's tip off.
Tulane is coming off the only exhibition game of the season when they defeated cross-campus foe Loyola, 103-74, on Sunday night. Sophomore Louis Dabney led the way with 24 points, while junior Jay Hook had 19 points and freshman Jonathan Stark added 18 points, nine rebounds and seven assists.
"I was pleased with our guys attitude and approach against Loyola," Tulane head coach Ed Conroy said. "I know we made a lot of mistakes. It is early in the year and we saw a lot of things that we need to work on, but we played with consistent effort and energy throughout.
"I'm anxious to see our guys and how they show improvement from the first game to the next," Conroy said. "Now that we've had a taste of college basketball, I'm looking to see these young guys take another jump."
Tulane's roster consists of eight freshman, two sophomores, two juniors and three seniors.
NJIT, located in Newark, N.J., claimed the Great West regular season title last season with a 6-2 mark and went 16-13 overall. The Highlanders are an independent this season and are led by fifth-year head coach Jim Engles.
This will be the first meeting between the two programs.
Tulane is 73-30 overall in season openers and have four of the last six, including two of three under Conroy. The Green Wave last opened the season at home in 2011-12 with a 72-63 victory over Alabama State.
The Green Wave will hit the road for the first time in 2013-14 for the next outing when they travel down I-10 to Baton Rouge to face Southern on Wednesday at 7 p.m. CT.
Season tickets for the 2013-14 Tulane men's basketball season will cost $250 for reserved courtside, $125 for adult baseline, $50 for youth baseline and $300 for the "Family 4 Pack" which includes two adult and two youth tickets. For additional information, contact the Tulane Team Shop ticket office in person on the first floor of the James W. Wilson, Jr. Center Monday thru Friday 8:30 a.m. to 5 p.m. Information is also available over the phone at 504-861-WAVE (9283) or via the Internet at www.TulaneGreenWave.com.

Three-year-olds are fascinating to observe – from a distance. Let me rephrase that – from a long, long distance away.
That may sound cruel, especially to those of you who work with pre-K children. But when my church asked me to teach a classroom filled with recent graduates of the "terrible 2s," my first instinct was to say "No."
As was my second instinct.
And my third.
After nearly two decades in grade-school and middle-school ministry, 3-year-olds were foreign territory for me.
But one unexpected option changed my mind.
My two daughters could join me as youth helpers. Neither had served before in church. This would provide them a chance to begin learning a valuable spiritual discipline, stretch spiritually and connect more to our church body.
So I swallowed hard and accepted the sentence, er, offer.
Three years later, a miracle has taken place. I'm still volunteering with this age group. In fact, I've grown to really love the kids in my care. I'm thankful God called me to this new season of ministry.
The two chief tools God has employed to keep me faithfully involved are my tween daughters. Serving alongside Jessica and Nicki has increased my commitment to our class. They have even kept me sane in the inevitably hairy moments.
Serving with them is such a privilege. As a parent, watching them learn and mature as young servants of Christ is extremely gratifying.
God is using my service to not only touch 3-year-olds' lives but my daughters' lives as well.
My story isn't unique. I'm sure you know families in similar situations in your church. Maybe you serve with your spouse and kids in Awana.
Family members involved in ministry together is a "win-win-win" proposition. Families grow, the church benefits, and both church members and guests reap the rewards.
