Varsity Stadium (map it)
299 Bloor St W
Toronto, ON M5S 1W2
Year Opened: 2002
Capacity: 5,000
There are no tickets available at this time.
Official Review by Robbie Raskin, Stadium Journey Special Correspondent
With about 80,000 students, the University of Toronto has long been regarded as one of the world's most prestigious universities. And for just as long, Varsity Stadium has been a home to football at every level. Several very notable events have taken place at Varsity Field over the years. In fact, the first game that wasn't rugby and wasn't soccer - that is the beginning of gridiron football - was played nearby on campus. Several famous Grey Cup games including the first ever championship as well as the 1950 'mud bowl,' which was quite possibly the most well-known Grey Cup game ever played, have happened at Varsity. It has also played host to the Vanier Cup of Canadian Interuniversity Sport.
Having been renovated six times since its original construction in 1898 and demolished and rebuilt in 2002, there have been enormous fluctuations in capacity and design at the stadium. Continued investment from the government as well as the university in preparation for the upcoming 2015 Pan Am games have brought about construction of a new high-performance athletics centre next door, while the stadium itself continues to improve. Meanwhile, the Toronto Varsity Blue football team is finally turning around after years of futility - narrowly missing the 2013 Ontario playoffs, but with many promising young players. The Toronto Argonauts have also begun to play preseason games at Varsity, to much acclaim and box office success.
Having hosted so many important football games over the years, and continuing to be the home of the sport it helped create, Varsity Stadium is one of the best-known, and the most important stadiums in the sport.
The FANFARE scale is our metric device for rating each stadium experience. It covers the following:
Each area is rated from 0 to 5 stars with 5 being the best. The overall composite score is the "FANFARE Score".
At first glance there does not appear to be that much on offer at Varsity Stadium. There is one concession stand selling hot dogs, chocolate, and pop. There are also a few vending machines scattered throughout the concourse. Also inside the stadium is a beer garden with television screens selling a variety of national and regional brands.
What sets this stadium apart is actually just behind the south fence of the stadium. A handful of food trucks often set up shop and offer cheap, tasty, and unique foods for fans to enjoy. The stadium wisely allows in-and-out privileges for fans with their hands stamped upon entry. A quick walk around the field and you will be confronted with six or seven different trucks ranging from a poutinerie, smoked meat truck, mobile smoker, sausage stand, cupcakery, and more.
Caplansky's Deli, frequently renowned as the best smoked meat in the city, usually brings their truck, Thunderin' Thelma to the game. Try the maple-bacon doughnuts! Of course, being able to walk out of the stadium as you please, you may also visit the numerous restaurants and cafes on Bloor Street and there is a Tim Horton's across the street.
The stadium feels incredibly intimate yet is open-air to the surrounding city life. There are lots of interesting and interactive games at halftime and the crowd-leading team does a very good job of lifting the atmosphere.
The pom team is friendly and sociable to fans, and has a number of intricate and well-rehearsed dance routines. The stadium announcer is energetic and professional and the scoreboard is very clear with frequent replays and vignettes. It is one of only a handful of Canadian university fields with videoboards and the one here is the best.
The most unique addition to the stadium atmosphere comes from the engineers. Showing up en masse to many home games, the engineers are famous for their shenanigans. Known as Skule, they come out either painted purple or dressed in some of their creative and homemade outfits, but always wearing their yellow hard hats. It is the task of arts students to try to steal these hats and the engineers have devised brilliant but dangerous defence mechanisms in their hats. The flamethrowing hat of a few years back is well-known among U of T students.
The engineers also have their own band, uniquely named the Lady Godiva Memorial Bnad [sic]. What makes the Bnad special is that there is no talent required to join. Despite that, the music is actually quite good and a number of alumni can be expected to come out and play along to some of the "moosic". It should be noted, though, that 'Teh Bnad' [again sic] see their role as 'crashing' the games and they tend to do their own thing. If you are hoping to follow the game closely do not sit near them!
One more word of warning, the engineers treasure Ye Olde Mighty Skule Cannon, which is indeed a working cannon. The engineers will not hesitate to fire off their cannon during the game, but the university has persuaded them to usually only fire it off at the start of play before the game and after halftime.
There are banners commemorating the Vanier and Grey Cups that have taken place over the stadium's history. The Toronto Argonauts also come out frequently, maintaining close ties with the Blues, and sell discounted tickets to Argonaut games. After every Blues touchdown, the school fight song, "The Blue and White" is played.
Varsity Stadium is located at the northern edge of the sprawling St. George campus and at the edge of glitzy Yorkville. Next door is the brand new Telus Centre for the Performing Arts, the Royal Academy of Music, the National Ballet School, and the Royal Ontario Museum with its jagged Crystal addition.
The stadium is close to all the major downtown attractions and is across the street from the Hotel InterContinental. Just east on Bloor are the Queen Alexandra Gates. South through them from Bloor St. is Philosopher's Walk, a tree-lined path that leads to the historic heart of campus. Incredibly beautiful architecture abounds at U of T, and at the south end of the walk are gothic Trinity College, ivy-covered Hart House, the fascinating University College, the domed Convocation Hall, and the Soldier's Tower, who's carillon is rung on important school occasions. A stroll through campus will reveal why so many movies set at universities are filmed here - the place truly looks like a university, just as one would imagine it.
The fans that do come out to matches are usually loud and passionate. The problem is that there are not enough of them. In terms of Canadian university football, the average 3,000-person crowds are good, but for a school with so many students, there should be more support. Being in a big city, a large number of students are commuters. Coupled with the particular academic rigor of the school, it is understandable that there is less spirit than at schools like Queen's and Western. In residence, school spirit tends to be stronger and most of the fans at the games live on or near campus.
There is no free parking on site, but there is a Green P municipal garage across the street. Public transit is still the best way to access the game, and the St. George subway station is across the street, servicing both the north-south University line and the east-west Bloor line. There is plenty of bike parking, and Bixi bike rental stands are nearby.
There is only one washroom for each gender, but that is fine for the crowd size, and there are not usually backups.
Tickets are affordable and students from U of T get in for free as do children under 8. Youth and seniors pay $5 online or $7 at the gate, and the adult ticket price is $10 online or $12 at the gate. In-stadium concessions are under $5 and meals to go from the food trucks will generally run you $5-$10. University of Toronto apparel is average in price and there are great deals to be had on Argonauts' tickets. This is money well spent.
One point for the friendly staff with great deals on CFL tickets.
The origins of gridiron football can be traced back to the University of Toronto, which is definitely worth an extra point.
Seeing football played in such a historic and well-known stadium is a great experience. Experiencing such history whilst watching the game in a new, state-of-the-art venue is incredible. So many Canadian football fans have fond memories of Varsity and today it is a great place to watch 'Big Blue' as, like their stadium, they have rebuilt from the ground up and are poised for many great years of football ahead.

And for just as long, Varsity Stadium has been a home to football at every level. Several very notable events have taken place at Varsity Field over the years. In fact the first ever documented game of gridiron football, which took place in 1861, was held near the current site of the stadium.

Gold Miners Move Toward More Consistent Cost Reporting
Helen Burnett-Nichols
The World Gold Council's Terry Heymann discusses new cost reporting measures aimed at the gold mining industry.
With the goal of increasing transparency when it comes to the costs associated with producing gold, the World Gold Council released two
new cost-reporting metrics
for gold miners last week – "all-in costs" and "all-in sustaining costs."
Terry Heymann, Director, Responsible Gold at the World Gold Council, talks to Minyanville about the new cost-reporting measures and how they may ultimately help investors better understand the economics of gold mining.
How long has the World Gold Council been working with its member companies [which
include Goldcorp (NYSE:GG), Barrick Gold (NYSE:ABX), Eldorado Gold (NYSE:EGO), Kinross Gold (NYSE:KGC) and Newmont Mining (NYSE:NEM)]
on this new guidance on cost metrics?
Our members asked us to help work with them in developing the guidance note and these new metrics in September [2012]. So, from then until the release of the guidance note, there's been a high level of engagement from the member companies, with us really acting as a facilitator.
What prompted the member companies to ask for your help in the development of these measures?
I think there's a recognition across our members, and indeed the industry as a whole, that investors certainly have been looking for further insight into the economics of gold mining and have been looking for greater consistency and further transparency in the way in which gold mining companies report to the market. There is the GAAP reporting and the formal accounts that the companies file and will continue to file, but there's been a demand for, in addition, a non-GAAP measure that is consistently applied across the industry that is more meaningful than some of the historic non-GAAP measures in looking at the total costs associated with gold mining. That's a message that our members have certainly heard from investors and recognized and wanted to respond.
What do these new measures include for gold miners that weren't included before?
The new measures include, we believe, all the costs associated with producing gold. The all-in sustaining costs relate to, if you like, the day-to-day costs of producing gold from an existing gold mine and that includes costs like the mining costs but in addition, capital expenditure related to sustaining production, G&A costs – general and administrative costs that are incurred, costs associated with the stripping and those costs have not always been included in measures. Part of the challenge with the historic measure of cash costs was that its not universally applied in the same way and certain companies have modified it, so many of those cost items might not have been included.
Then, in addition, the all-in costs not only includes the costs associated with operating mines and with existing mine operations but also looks at the costs associated with non-sustaining gold production, and this is intended to reflect the costs that are incurred over the life cycle of a gold mine.
If some of those costs haven't historically been included, have investors and other
stakeholders been missing out on the true cost picture, to date, for many gold miners?
These are non-GAAP measures and the cash costs have been a helpful non-GAAP metric to supplement GAAP reporting and the financial accounts and reports that all listed companies and many other companies provide. So, I don't think that there's a case where investors have been misled; I think this is recognizing that there is a desire for further consistency, greater consistency, across the industry in use of a non-GAAP metric that's meant to be helpful, designed to be helpful and more meaningful in relating that to the specific costs of gold production.
How will the mining companies themselves benefit from using these new reporting measures?
Our hope is that investors will recognize the value of these metrics and in turn, that will become a helpful data point for them in making their decisions about investing in gold and indeed, in gold mining equities in addition to the other sources of information that they use in making those decisions. I also think that these metrics help with a range of stakeholders, in understanding the economics of gold mining, including governments, including communities, and that's helpful for gold mining companies. Gold mining companies want people to understand the economics of the business and that's important for a meaningful discussion around the value that the business creates and how that value is distributed across all the different stakeholders.
Is that level of understanding of particular importance, given the gold price's performance of late?
I certainly think that, with gold where it is, understanding the economics of gold mining is important and costs associated with producing gold. So, this is not a metric that's been designed as a response to the gold price and the movements in recent weeks. But, I think yes, helping investors, governments, communities understand the economics of gold mining and being able to link that to the price of gold, should help everybody understand where there is value created and indeed, some of the challenges that the industry is facing.
What has the response been like so far to these new measures from investors and from the gold miners themselves? To what extent do you expect the mining industry to adopt these new measures?
The response has been very positive. I think there's been a broad welcoming and recognition of the usefulness of these metrics. In terms of takeup and implementation and use of these metrics, that's absolutely for individual companies to determine for themselves, how they report to the market, bearing in mind what their investors and other stakeholders are looking for.
Broadly, to what extent are companies already using metrics similar to this?
There have been a number of companies that do already use some form of all-in costs. Our hope would be that putting out a guidance note with a very clear methodology around how these specific World Gold Council-defined metrics can be calculated, should be calculated, will help with that degree of consistency that we've certainly heard investors are looking for. So, there's already been a move toward reporting all-in costs, but there hasn't always been a clear or consistent methodology behind it. We think that this is an important step to help the industry align on a common approach by which they can report their all-in costs.

Investigational Drug(s)
Investigational Device(s)
Drug: Tenofovir/ & amp; Emtricitabine
Supporting Site
Tenofovir is an anti-viral drug approved for use in patients with HIV infection. In small studies in patients infected with both HIV and hepatitis B, tenofovir lowered the level of hepatitis B virus in the blood, with no viral resistance reported when used for up to 5 years. Emtricitabine is an anti-viral drug similar to lamivudine and is effective at lowering viral load and improving liver damage.
Patients 18 years of age and older with chronic hepatitis B may be eligible for this study. Participants are admitted to the NIH Clinical Center for a complete medical history and examination, including blood and urine tests, chest X-ray, electrocardiogram, abdominal ultrasound, Fibroscan (ultrasound exam of the liver that measures the amount of scarring), bone mineral density scan and liver biopsy. They are then randomly assigned to take combination treatment with tenofovir plus emtricitabine or tenofovir alone for at least 48 weeks. During the treatment period, patients visit the Clinical Center for blood tests and a physical examination every 2 weeks for the first month and then every 4 to 12 weeks. After 48 weeks, patients are readmitted to the Clinical Center for a complete evaluation that includes all the tests done at the start of therapy, including a liver biopsy. Patients who seem to have improved with treatment may continue therapy for up to 192 weeks, when they are again admitted to the Clinical Center for a complete medical evaluation and liver biopsy. Patients whose condition has not improved after 48 weeks of treatment have their treatment changed or stopped and continue to have regular outpatient clinic visits for 24 more weeks.
INCLUSION CRITERIA (nucleoside analogue-naive subjects):
-Age greater than 18 years and older, male or female.
-Known serum HBsAg positivity for 24 weeks.
-Detectable HBV DNA greater than 10(4) IU/ml. For patients with cirrhosis HBV DNA greater than 10(3) IU/ml

-Liver biopsy within 2 years of entry that is consistent with chronic hepatitis and with a histology activity index (HAI) score of 4 or more (scores range from 0-18) and an Ishak fibrosis score of at least 1 (scores range from 0-6). For patients who have had a liver biopsy at another institution, slides must be obtained for reading and scoring at the NIH.
-Written informed consent.
INCLUSION CRITERIA SALVAGE STUDY (nucleoside analogue experienced subjects):
-Age > 18 years and older, male or female
-Known serum HBsAg positivity for 6 months
-Detectable HBV DNA > 10(2) IU/ml.
-Liver biopsy within 5 years of entry that is consistent with chronic hepatitis

-History of hypersensitivity to nucleoside analogues.
-Active ethanol/drug abuse/psychiatric problems such as major depression, schizophrenia, bipolar illness, obsessive-compulsive disorder, severe anxiety, personality disorder that, in the investigator's opinion, might interfere with participation in the study.
-History of renal tubular acidosis.
-History of malignancy or treatment for a malignancy within the past 5 years.
-Presence of conditions that, in the opinion of the investigators, would not allow the patient to be followed in the current study for at least 5 years.

Goldman's Take On Europe's "Marshall Plan" Newsflow
- Printer-friendly version
- Jul 21, 2011 9:21 AM
- 51
Global Debt Clock Now $42T And Ticking
And remember kids, the Vampire Squid Goldman Sachs was instrumental in helping Greece cook their now known fraudulent accounting books. So whatever Goldman Sachs says, treat it as though the head of a Mafia family is giving you advice about one of their lower ranks.
Pie in the sky positive spin.
how is a loan to a government a recapitilization of the banks?
Great to see the crime syndication have their nose in this, we can expect more fraud and deception.
Where does all of this money come from?
1's and 0's on an Internet server.
Thin air
I think the European Financial Stability Fud works like this:
France and Germany take some of the FED money they got last year, and put this, along with some string, a broken skate key, a crumpled Bazooka comic-strip bubble gum wrapper, a couple of marbles, and a dried bug, into a hat and call it the EFSF. The EFSF then prits as much fiat money as it possibly can, with only human credulity as an upper limit, and loans it to Greece. In other words, it's like paying off one credit card with another, just to keep the pesky collection agencies who call at supper time quiet, because their phone calls frightgen the wife and make her less willing to have sex.
pure torture how this bs continues
All of this crap has WWIII written all over it......
...the latest Marshall Plan in Europe, which unlike last time comes before the war.
Cruiser: I joined the army 'cause my father and my brother were in the army. I thought I'd better join before I got drafted.
Sergeant Hulka: Son, there ain't no draft no more.
Cruiser: There was one?
Translation: We are going to make a truck load of fees moving all this shit around! Woot-Woot where's dem new hookers!
Could Goldman's interests be any more transparent with this report?
off balance sheet, ahahahahahahahah
So when the next set of greek numbers come out showing their economy is still degrading what?...all is ok? Private investment would have to be retarded to get in on this. Any default will hit them first.
When Goldman calls it "Better than expected"...you just KNOW that people are about to get royally fucked.
Amen to that, you would think people have woken up by now, but obviously they haven't.
Guess the junker is an asshole from GS spying ZH.
Complete nonsense. Let's wait until someone does the accounting (because these folks don't) and come up with a time frame for the next bailout of Greece. And BTW, starts putting numbers together for Spain and Italy too.
3.5%.....I guess zombie supernational, totalitarian unions from hell need not worry about RAR.
More monetization means more inflation (the type The Bernank doesn't see).
Food + PM + oil prices skyrocketing.....
Can they reduce the size of food packets any smaller? The 16oz bags are now 10oz.
But the MSM writes..."Everything is Fine..."
The 10 oz packet of Soilent Green does not satisfy like the 16 oz packet did!
From the UK Telegraph's reporter at the Eurogroup meeting.
Speculation here in Brussels that draft eurozone proposals were deliberately leaked to Reuters to stop the euro plunging on the markets.
The markets wanted to hear about measures such as using the eurozone's €440bn EFSF bailout to give loans to non-programme countries (Italy and Spain) for bank recapitalisation or allowing it to "intervene on a precautionary basis".
All well and good except that these proposals could well require a change to the EFSF rules, the fund is supposed to be last resort for example, and changes must be agreed in parliaments.
Germany does not want that battle as German voters revolt against even more of their money flowing south. The Finns and Dutch don't like it either.
Markets have now firmed up. Will that message be passed on to Chancellor Merkel in a bid to twist her arm?
Your voters might not like it but the markets need it.
If the final agreement does not support the weight of expectations that have been placed upon it, watch out below.
Yeah, yeah. GS was net short yesterday and long today. THEY make the news to benefit THEM.
lol - crooks.
GS spinning it as good?
No mention of how a slowing France and Germany are going to pay?
Wonder how long till the EUR rally peters out.
Give it till friday.
Let's see, all of the PIIGs cannot pay their debts, all of the banks in Europe own these sovereign bonds? Each country that has no money to pay their debts is going to contribute more money to a bail-out fund to buy their debt back and guarantee future payments. Can anyone say PONZI?
Who in their right mind would put funds into a 15 year vehicle at 3.5%?
Ah, "right mind", please disregard. Taxpaying sheeple will be shorn so that the government can lose money on an pisspoor investment (recapitalization). Any bets on whether the 15 year will ever see maturity?
They had to do this for Greece or the bottom-up rot would spread to every Main Street on Club Med. Would have killed all of Europe. All-in which is the only way out.
United States of Europe, bitchez.
ECB will print Euro by night. Could it be this one the real meaning of the European Marshall Plan?
Its amazing how the sector with the worst earnings , i.e Financials, are flying the past 2 days with BAC outperforming. I'm glad I was able to get out my short position with a little bit of profit.
Yeh..."But wot about the Workers!?"....
So we are going to lend them a bunch of money to build a bunch of shit they don't need. Goldman will make a shit load of money and the Greeks get to party on for 15 more years. Seems like a sound plan to me.
Score so far...Greece 10 EU sip! Wow where can I get a deal like that?
Score so far...Greece 10 EU zip! Wow where can I get a deal like that?
Goldman's take is always positive when banks are dumping their toxic trash on the taxpayers.
goldmember is a man baby
Basically what the Slippery Squid is saying is that "The banks are saved! The banks are saved!"
We have removed the probability of default for another few months, and now lets get to work on rejuvenating the Greek economy. Zorba - how much EUR do you need to hire a few more olive pickers at 20 EUR / hr?
It's not over till it's over.
The sycophants at the Fed and ECB have finally figured out that you cannot have a real rally in the equity (vapor measured in real returns) without the banks participating....Sooo...pump up the carcasses with a mixture of bullshit, seminal fluids, and a pureed working class.
Better than expected means better than expected for the squid!
Beat the dead horse harder, then cajol it, then ply it with candy, then open negotiations with it, then threaten to end the negotiations, then buy it some flowers, then threaten it with Gitmo, then flatter it, then order the tide to recede, then rinse and repeat.
I forgot the step where you have S&P bad mouth the horse.
S&P: "It now is clear that unless this lazy horse revives itself, the horse's food supply will be reduced and the horse will be hitched to a wagon. The horse refused comment."
The small fact that they call it a Marshall Plan and not a Merkel Plan or some other European, proves how clue and leaderless the EU really is. A bunch of spineless do-gooders that have no guts to take strong measures when needed. Wait, sound like socialist governments but Germany has a conservative government, right? Ha haaa, you see in Europe you can choose between various level of left.... rightish-left, center-left, and left-left (green/communist).

Question #2: What are the top five smart practices as well as the top five pet peeves foundations complain about when it comes to grant reporting?
Requires the latest version of Flash player.
Running time: 9:05
So you got the grant, now what? While many new to grantseeking consider the grant check to be the end of a long process, from the grantmakers' perspective that process has just begun. This program helps you learn how to make the most of your existing relationships with grantmakers. Based on the Foundation Center's new book, After the Grant: The Nonprofit's Guide to Good Stewardship, panelists addressed a variety of stewardship issues including meeting and communicating with funders, issues related to reporting on grants, and troubleshooting advice when things don't go as planned. Panelists include grantmakers who are chapter authors or featured case studies in the new book, as well as other local foundation representatives.
View segments:
Question #4: Do corporate giving representatives have time to do site visits? What is expected in the reporting process? [8:10]
Question #5: How flexible is your organization once the grant has been awarded? Will being honest with a program officer about the challenges come back to haunt an organization when they re-apply in the future? [16:49]
Question #6: What else can you tell us about positioning an organization to be in the best position to get the next grant? [5:13]

The first major step was made Oct. 31 in having general obligation bonds fund the Kentucky Tri-modal Transpark. Under the Inter-modal Transportation authority's previous inter-local agreement, the county is listed as the bond issuer. Now, the agreement has been reworked for the city to issue the bonds.
But is this the best course of action?
The motion cleared unanimously in less than ten minutes. It's too late for a change, a known Transpark opponent isn't convinced the right choice has been made.
"The reason I had concerns about it, we're obligating the citizens of Bowling Green for 28-million dollars," explained Harold Brantley, president of Brantley Appraisal.
Brantley says the city is making a mistake by changing the method of funding.
"These were not general obligation bonds that the Transpark had," Brantley added. "These were real estate mortgage bonds, which did not make the city or county obligated for any deficit. The land stood by itself."
But Mayor Elaine Walker says the mortgage bonds weren't meant to be long-term.
"The structure of that bonding has really become unattainable because of the amount of money that has to be refunded toward bond repayment," Mayor Elaine Walker assured.
That's in addition to three major balloon payments the city and county would have had to pay off, while still under the mortgage funding.
But Brantley argues that Bowling Green taxpayers will still suffer, considering the price of an acre of the Transpark's land.
"They owe $60,000 an acre for it, and it's worth somewhere between $25,000 and 30,000, so that appears to be a significant deficit that is going to be paid by taxpayers," Brantley said.
That's exactly why Transpark supporters say they are switching to general obligation bonds.
"Under this current structure, we are hoping that we'll have the revenue that this Transpark is generating, pay off the bonds," Walker said. "We may have some shortfalls in the first couple of years, but it's a much more healthy financial situation for all of the citizens."
Time will tell just how healthy a situation it will be.
Mayor Walker added, under the new agreement, the county is 50-percent liable, so if the city of Bowling Green has a shortcoming in its payments, the county will step in to help.

30 days is enoughNovember 15,2012
30 days is enough
This is in response to the letter written by Marsha Kincheloe in the Nov. 12 edition of The Times Argus. She asks about tour buses on Main Street, suggesting they are allowed, or at least might be. They are not.
I have a 40-foot motor home, and wanted to drive it from Washington Street to the Barre-Montpelier Road, and not having seen a definition of truck with respect to the truck route, I called the police department to see if my motor home would be allowed on Main Street. The dispatcher could not assist and referred me to the city managers office. Calling there, I was finally connected with Police Chief Tim Bombardier, who informed me that my motor home was not allowed. Ergo, tour buses are also were not allowed.
In my conversation with the chief, I mentioned the time or two I had seen traffic stopped by an 18-wheeler, blocking both lanes while waiting to be able to turn right on to Elm Street, off Summer Street. Why? Because the driver of a car had failed to heed the stop bar in the left turn lane on Elm Street and had stopped beyond it, preventing any vehicle making a wide turn from proceeding.
I suspect this situation occurs fairly frequently at all four major intersections, Main and Elm, Elm and Summer, Elm and Maple Avenue, Maple Avenue and Main. How much easier for a truck (or a motor home) to simply drive the length of Main Street.
If this traffic pattern continues beyond its 30-day trial, there will be times when the stop bars will not be visible, and probably not obeyed. Those would be snowy days, rainy nights when markings are difficult to see, and even when the paint has worn such that it is practically invisible.
I hope this pattern is allowed to die its natural death at the end of the 30-day trial.

Live Results | NCAA West Prelims Notes
DeKALB, Ill. - The Northern Illinois track & field team opens up NCAA competition this week with the NCAA West Preliminary Round in Austin, Texas. The meet runs from Thursday, May 24 through Saturday, May 26 at Texas' Mike Myers Stadium. The Huskies will be represented with a program-high four entries in the meet, as Janay Mitchell competes in the 100 meters and 200 meters, Roneisha Frye runs in the 100 hurdles and the quartet of Chanel Kellyman, Mitchell, Frye and Rasheta Butler take part in the 4x100 relay. "Heading to the first round of the NCAAs is a great accomplishment for the athletes qualifying," said Huskie head coach Connie Teaberry. "If they continue to compete with confidence, executing every phase, they will have huge performances. We are proud to have the opportunity to compete at the NCAA Preliminary Round, but we are ready to accomplish more." Mitchell will start the meet off for NIU Thursday night at 6:55 p.m. with the 100 meters prelims. On Friday, Frye runs at 5:30 p.m. in the 100 hurdles prelims, while Mitchell will have the 100 meters final at 6:45 p.m. (contingent on Thursday's result) and the 200 meters prelims at 8:25 p.m. Things wrap up Saturday when the 4x100 relay team of Chanel Kellyman, Mitchell, Frye and Rasheta Butler hit the track at 6:15 p.m., while the 100 hurdles and 200 meters final take place at 7:20 p.m. and 7:50 p.m., respectively. NIU will be looking to build off their strong performance at the Mid-American Conference Championships, where they scored a program-best 53.33 points to finish in eighth place. Individually, Mitchell and the 4x100 relay took first team All-MAC honors with first place finishes in Mt. Pleasant, while Frye earned second team All-MAC recognition in the 100 hurdles. This year marks the third-straight season and the seventh time in the last nine in which NIU has sent at least one athlete to the NCAA Preliminary Rounds. In addition, the four entries in this year's prelim meet is the most the program has ever qualified since being reinstated in 2000. The previous high was three, which occurred in 2006 and 2007. Northern will also be looking to get at least one Huskie to the NCAA Championship for the first time since 2007, when Ashley Morrow made it in the shot put. In order for that to happen, Mitchell, Frye or the 4x100 relay team must finish among the top 12 in their respective events. Live results will be available at TexasSports.com.

Fresh strawberries are beginning to show up in the grocery stores! It won't be long before we'll soon be able to get them from the local produce markets and fresh strawberries are always a special treat. Until summer arrives, we can get them in the grocery and enjoy them in different ways.
Many years ago, I came across a recipe that uses fresh strawberries and also includes an interesting ingredient: yogurt! Together, these two ingredients create a light and creamy dessert, appropriately entitles "Strawberry Yogurt Pie". This is a light and refreshing dessert that will be very welcome after a heavy meal or when the weather turns hot this summer.
This pie goes together pretty quickly. You begin by pureeing fresh strawberries. You then mix unflavored gelatin and sugar. Egg yolks and milk are then added and is heated until the gelatin dissolves. The pureed strawberries go in, along with yogurt, lemon juice and, if desired, some red food coloring. This is chilled until it begins to thicken and mounds from a spoon. Egg whites are beaten with additional sugar and folded into the strawberry mixture. This now goes into a pie shell and chilled until it's chilled and firm. This is good plain, though it's even better topped with whipped topping and additional strawberries.
A few pointers: regular strawberry yogurt can be used, though I prefer the Greek strawberry yogurt. I believe that the Greek version, since it's thicker and creamier, makes a creamier pie. Also, when you fill the pie shell with the strawberry mixture, there will be some of the mixture left, as it all won't go in. The remaining filling can be placed in dessert dishes, chilled and served like a pudding. One other thing you could do is to use an extra-large prepared pie shell and it should hold all of the filling.
If you're concerned about using raw egg whites in this pie, egg white powder or meringue powder can be used in place of them. This powder can be found in the baking section of some larger grocery stores or the cake decorating section of some department stores. Follow the directions for preparing two egg whites and proceed with the recipe as directed.
Springtime also means another favorite treat, rhubarb. A while back, I gave a recipe for a "Strawberry-Rhubarb Pie" that's a sensation! To get this recipe, follow this link:
For a refreshing taste of strawberries, this pie is the very dessert that provides it!
- 1 pint fresh strawberries
- 1 envelope unflavored gelatin
- 1/2 cup sugar
- 2 large eggs, separated
- 1/2 cup milk
- 1 cup strawberry yogurt, either the regular or the Greek version
- 1 teaspoon lemon juice
- 4 drops red food coloring (optional)
- 1 pre-packaged graham cracker or butter flavored crust (see note)
In the blender jar, puree enough strawberries to make 3/4 cup. Reserve the remaining strawberries for garnishing. In a medium saucepan, mix the gelatin with 1/4 cup of the sugar. Blend in the egg yolks beaten with the milk. Let it stand about 1 minute. Stir over low heat until gelatin is completely dissolved, about 5 minutes. With a wire wisk or a rotary beater, blend in the pureed strawberries, yogurt, lemon juice and food coloring, if using it. Chill, stirring occasionally, until mixture mounds slightly when dropped from a spoon.
In a medium bowl, beat the egg whites until soft peaks form. Gradually add the remaining sugar and beat until stiff. Fold into gelatin mixture. Turn into prepared crust and chill until firm. Garnish with reserved strawberries and if desired, whipped topping. Yield: 8 servings.
NOTE: Not all of the filling will fit in a regular pie shell. Any remaining filling can be placed in dessert dishes and chilled. This can be served as a pudding. A pre-made "Extra Large" pie shell may be used, which will hold all of the filling.

plan basics
Dear Small Biz Adviser:
I am in need of a business plan. I am
opening a tea/coffee shop and bar, and I have everything but a plan.
Any who-what-where ideas?
Dear Lisa:
Good business plans are hard to find.
It isn't a matter of ability, software, available market data or
a lack of business planners. It is a lack of knowledge or desire
on the part of the entrepreneur to diligently devote the time and
resources to insure a quality document.
A business plan is not simply a collection of sheets
of paper with words that you need to qualify for a business loan.
It contains tools designed to:
All of these goals will be met if you conduct thorough
research and are realistic in your projections.
Do not underestimate expenses and do not overestimate
sales simply to make the financial projections look attractive.
Rather, overestimated expenses and underestimated sales equal more
cash on hand and a greater likelihood of profitability.
Business plan basics
Your business plan should include:
Now what do you use to develop a business plan? Assuming
some degree of computer skills, choose from a menu of business planning
software that is easily available online and in software outlets.
Some popular ones are Automate
Your Business Plan, BizPlan
Builder, Planware
and PlanMagic.
You can view some of the sample business plans at these Web sites
to get an idea of what type of information the programs generate.
Alternatively, you could hire a consultant or seek
hands-on assistance at the nearest office of a Small
Business Development Center, a SCORE
chapter or a Women's
Business Center.
This should provide you the basics from which to begin.
Books are written about what I have conveyed in this column, and
there is much more to learn before you design the map to guide a
successful business venture.
I wish you well.

We are so immature; we're all a bunch of puritans who are upset by sex, obsessed with sex, and in fear of sex. By making it so taboo, we've made it too exciting. Other countries are blase about topless beaches, but in America we've made icons out of the breast and the penis. I am raising sons and am so embarrassed that they are growing up in this era where every TV commercial is about drugs for dirty OLD MEN who can't get it up! What do our kids think of us? All we care about is erectile dysfunction?
Our culture's fascination with porn, nudity, youth, and sleaze is creating an entire generation who have only one thing on their mind: graphic, faceless, mechanical, and sometimes violent forms of sex. Not romantic, loving, monogamous sex. We don't even seem to enjoy the excitement of mystery. It seems to be all about flesh, body parts, and the objectification of youth.
Our children crave and deserve innocence. They deserve to have their childhoods back — a world in which imagination is more important than knowledge. I am mentoring teen girls in our neighborhood and I've never seen such rampant abuse and pedophilia of the mind.
I am hearing things you cannot believe on a daily basis that are going on in our middle school. The herd will always flock to porn, gossip, horror films, trash and conflict. If it bleeds it leads. The more horrifying, the better the ratings.I've been thinking about the root of hatred lately — and it's obvious that "evil" is always the same regressive, self-centered fear-based bigotry that Christ fought against and that has been here since the beginning of civilization: the ancient dark force of fundamentalism. Narrow-minded provincialism; small minded "us versus them" thinking. The same mentality that burned women as witches at the stake in Salem. Fear is the fuel of evil. I don't believe in evil as a force of its own. There is, of course, no power in "evil," but this is our only enemy — the primitive hateful force that was behind the Inquisition, the Ku Klux Klan's bigotry, Hitler's pathology, the assassination of Martin Luther King, the slaying of abortion doctors, the killing of Matthew Shepherd, the illegal invasion of Iraq, fear of Muslims, gays, immigrants, dark people or "the other"; the sick warmongering campaign of Bush-Cheney, the obsession with automatic weapons, fear of helping the poor, fear of free medical care, fear of being equal, fear of giving women equal pay for equal work; the fear of peace and the crucifiction of the Great Peacemaker — the force that is most represented right now by the extremist political right wing in our country. And of course their messengers and propagandists: Rush Limbaugh, Paul Ryan, Mitt Romney, Bill O'Reilly, Sarah Palin, Mark Levin, Ann Coulter, Glen Beck, et al.
There is a reason the womb is encased in the separate individual body of a the woman, a human being. Her womb is not community property. As far as I know, there are no public womb farms with rows and rows of wombs protected by armed guards. This is not a state or government issue. No bureaucrat, government agent, policeman, moral judge, religious tribe, fanatical fundamentalist -- or any other human being has the right to dictate what a private citizen does with her private parts. They can legislate things like suicide, but it's hard to convict a suicide victim for taking his own life. It's hard to put a dead person in jail.
Every God-fearing Christian must at least know this: that the Bible is a history book about the wandering tribes of Israel, their journey out of captivity and slavery, and the salvation of their soul, depicted as their search for a spiritual homeland. The whole point of the Bible is the soul's journey toward freedom and God. But it is the choices we make which form our character. We are not robots. Every human being has the right of free will. FREE WILL means each person can choose to make a mistake and his or her soul has to suffer the consequences and grow from this. Every story in the Bible concerns deeply flawed humans who made terrible mistakes, but were forgiven and redeemed if they turned to their Father — God. Without free will, they could never have this journey or learned these lessons. The whole point is love, forgiveness and redemption.
Christ's most important law is the Golden Rule, or how we treat our fellow human beings. But before you say "How we treat a fetus is more important than how we treat living, born human beings!" you are decidedly WRONG. This is not what the Great Peacemaker taught. In fact, nothing could be further from the truth. No where is this subject mentioned in any of his teachings, or anywhere else in the Bible.
Is flesh really man's most important quality? It is absurd to think that a piece of prenatal tissue that may or may not be viable, and that is the genetic result of a supremely private act between husband and wife (or tragically, between rapist and victim) -- and is part of a distinctly separate human woman with free will, living in a land of freedom, with privacy rights and civil rights — to think this is worth killing a born, living, breathing, human being over is the ultimate evil. For these hateful, anti-Christian, pro-death extremists who call themselves "pro-life" and would murder a living human being to save an unborn defective fetus -- to think that a "potential life" that is ensconced within the separate, free, individual body of a woman, a private citizen — is more important than the living, the born, the mother's own life, the victims of our illegal bombing campaigns, our soldiers, the Iraqi children, the homeless, the poor, the orphans, the destitute or even one's enemies such as Dr. Tiller — is un-Christian, immoral, and against everything Christ himself taught.
Somehow we love to be horrified, scared, shocked, upset, and angry. That's why Jerry Springer and Rush Limbaugh (and Glen Beck, Ann Coulter, etc) are paid $45 million a year to shock and divide us.
I've been thinking about the root of hatred lately — and it's obvious that "evil" (I don't believe in evil) is always the same regressive, self-centered fear-based bigotry that Christ fought against and that has been here since the beginning of civilization: the ancient dark force of fundamentalism. There is, of course, no power in "evil," but this is our only enemy — the primitive hateful force that was behind the Inquisition, the Salem witch trials, the Ku Klux Klan, the assassination of Martin Luther King, the slaying of abortion doctors, the killing of Matthew Shepherd, the illegal invasion of Iraq, the campaign of Bush-Cheney, the obsession with automatic weapons, the fear of Muslims, the fear of immigrants, the fear of helping the poor, the fear of free medical care, the fear of peace and the crucifiction of the Great Peacemaker — the force that is most represented right now by the extremist political right wing in our country. And of course their messengers and propagandists: Bill O'Reilly, Rush Limbaugh, Mark Levin, Ann Coulter, Mark Levin, Glen Beck.
It has always been the same force of evil, it just keeps changing its name.
I am stunned and deeply saddened over the called "pro-life" terrorists in this country. They are pro-death, not pro-life. They are anti-life. They are so deeply wrong and tragically flawed in their thinking, it is beyond comprehension.
In all of Christ's teachings, he only cared about how we treat each other: The Golden Rule. In every one of his Beatitudes, he taught the laws of love. "The meek shall inherit the earth." Life is not about flesh, it is spirit. The soul is not located in the material body or in fetal tissue. The spiritual values of love and compassion are the only things Christ cared about.
The law of love, the spirit not the flesh, how we treat our each other, how we treat our enemies. "Turn the other cheek. Love your enemies." There is no substance in matter. Christ was offended by the Pharisees with their rules, gold, robes and rituals. So much focus on ritual and "material" rules and complex food laws that bogged down the spirit. Remember he said "It's the spirit of the law and not the letter" meaning "It's how you LOVE ONE ANOTHER that matters to God." It seems these modern day Pharisees, the evangelical extremists such as Pat Robertson, the late Jerry Falwell, John Hagee and people at Operation Rescue — are focused on everything BUT what is important. When will they learn?
Again, it's the dark force of primitive fundamentalism that puts more faith in fear than in God; that condemns sinners instead of bringing the light of love and forgiveness, as Christ taught; that controls others with lengthy rituals and icons of idolatry. This very same force is responsible for the current economic crisis. Style over substance. Fundamentalism >authoritarianism > materialism (greed) > consumerism.
How dare you, Scott Roeder and others of your ilk, that is to say "pro-life killers" those who kill doctors. To Scott Roeder: You have no idea what cases Dr. Tiller was treating. You twist the legal language to suit your malevolent purposes. Women who had no other choice but to have an abortion because the fetus was not going to live, or was a threat to the life of the mother -- Dr. Tiller was obeying the law and saving lives. Until you have walked in the shoes of every woman going through this, you have no right to judge, or take away the rights of another individual, who has nothing to do with you.
If you take the bible as the literal word of God, then why don't you take God's words literally? Bless those who curse you, Thou shalt not kill; turn the other cheek; love your enemies; and 'Judgment and vengeance is mine" (as G-d said.)
I do not know a human being, liberal, libertarian or atheist or Muslim who is pro-abortion. I just know that in a diverse, secular society (unlike a religious society such as Iran, run by Mullahs) we cannot subscribe to the Police governing our bodies or our intimate relationship with the God of our understanding.
That's why I like the 12 steps. You design your own higher power. But it's all LOVE.
God is love.
That's why I like the 12 steps. You design your own higher power. But it's all LOVE.
God is love.

Is this like a bad B movie where nuclear material is smuggled out of the old Soviet Union and into the eager hands of waiting terrorists in North Africa?
It's like Tinkers to Evers to Chance only this time it goes Soviet Union era HEU to Moldova to North African terrorist groups!
When the Soviet Union fell there were always questions looming regarding its nuclear and biological weapons stockpiles and just who it was that was responsible for safeguarding them and who was not in the business of selling them to the highest bidder.
The same question could and was asked of the Soviet satellite states and the inventory of weapons the USSR had been keeping in those countries?
Moldova, highly enriched uranium (HEU) from the former Soviet Union and North African terrorist groups makes for a potentially deadly combination!
This is a brief summary from an article at Global Security Newswire with a link at the end to read it in its entirety.
"… Moldovan authorities believe that 2.2 pounds of weapon-usable uranium is held by traffickers who have in the past sought to sell the material to North African buyers…
… Should the existence of a legitimate buyer (or middleman) from a region with a history of terror cells be confirmed, then the case would be substantially more alarming than other recent fissile material interdictions, where official agents were the sole potential buyer…
… At the time of the June sting, the trafficking ring asserted to Moldovan investigators masquerading as interested buyers that they held 20 pounds of highly enriched uranium and some plutonium as well, according to the Lugar report, which was obtained by AP prior to publication. The smugglers were seeking close to $31 million for the uranium. About 60 pounds of HEU material would be required to construct an improvised nuclear device…
…Moldovan investigators think the Russian nuclear material was smuggled through Transnistria, a recognized sanctuary for traffickers. Air travel into the breakaway Moldovan region cannot be tracked and the territory's borders with Ukraine and Moldova are not adequately monitored, according to the Lugar report." (GSN)

As I was completing my turn, and straightening my front wheels, I was struck by another vehicle turning right onto the roadway. The other vehicle had proceeded from the same stop sign as I had, and was behind me, but drove over the glass, into the road and into my vehicle. The other vehicle's front left impacted my right rear wheel and fender, pushing me a foot or so to the left.
I pulled over to sort it out with the other driver, but he didn't stop, so I pulled back into the road to try to stop him, or at least get the license of the vehicle. I got the needed information and returned home to call a county deputy to make an accident report. Both the deputy and I were unable to discern any damage except to the fender, so an accident report was not filed, however I did get an incident report number. As I first thought that the damage was not great, I planned to forget the matter.
It was later determined that significant damage had occurred and my vehicle had to go to a shop for an estimate. Because of the damage, I had to have some repairs made in order to drive the car, but not all repairs were made.
I have been in contact with the insurance co. representing the other driver, but all they've offerred is 50 % of damages. Now I'm forced to file in small claims court to try to recover damages.
I feel that I was not at fault, that I was in the roadway before the other driver left the stop line, and that I had the right-of-way. I feel I was taking due care by steering around the glass to enter the lane, and that the other driver was negligent in entering the roadway.
I have very limited funds, so even a filing fee is a hardship, but I feel that I should do everything I can to recover my losses, which will be around 2000-2500.
Should I proceed to small claims court? Should I contact the other driver to see if he will pay my damages, thus avoiding court? Should I obtain the help of an attorney?
I'm just lost in all of this.

A Skeptical Look at Atheism – Andy McIntosh
Every now and then we like to invite speakers who might be expected to hold views outside skepticism to see if they stack up. In this talk, scientist and Young Earth Creationist, Andy McIntosh puts forward his ideas and beliefs on evolution, creation and faith in this extraordinary and controversial talk. He is happy to tell us we're not skeptical but are his arguments valid?

The Mathematics of Juggling - Colin Wright
In 1984 there was no formal way to write down juggling patterns, just wordy descriptions. It was soon found that with the application of simple mathematical rules it was possible to invent one. Soon the maths was predicting things no-one had thought of...
"might give the impression of a display of juggling skills, but it actually covers many levels of maths and science, how they work, what they mean and why they are important" - Professor Rob Hillman

What are the 12 Steps? - Danny Strickland
The 12 step programme of recovery has been used to help people recover from addiction and dependence since 1935. Danny discusses what exactly the 12 steps are, what they really mean and just how effective they are and tackles questions such as are 12 step groups cults, is a belief in a god central to the programme and if so, can atheists really use it?

Darwin's Ghosts - Rebecca Stott
Successful author Rebecca Stott takes us through the extraordinary thinkers – poets, philosophers and scientists – who dared to explore the possibility of the mutation of species in the 2000 years before Darwin's 'On the Origin of Species'. It confirms that evolution, in its challenge to religious, social and political orthodoxies, has always been a profoundly dangerous idea. As with many of our talks the Q and A provides a rich insight into both the topic and the speaker.
"An excellent cerebral evening. Darwin's even more fascinating now I know a little more." - Rich Wiltshire, Birmingham
Total Running Time 1h34m – Talk 47m; Q & A 47m.
Open Mic Night
In a change to the usual format, we opened up the stage to see what talent we had lurking in our audience. We weren't disappointed and, from author Mil Millington's witty moral quandary to Jade Quarrell's moving personal talk about cancer quackery taking in Wicca from Grant Carpenter, internet scams from Simon Stanford and live music from Blake Hutchings, the night was a rip-roaring success.
"Awesome line-up!" Piv Gopalasingam, Birmingham

Hypnotism Without Hypnosis - Martin Taylor
Originally, like most people, Martin Taylor believed hypnosis was a special state of mind: that people were actually going into some mysterious trance. But discussions with sceptical friends and scientists combined with his own experience led him to realise that stage hypnosis is nothing more than a combination of suggestion, peer pressure, and obedience. He combines a thorough scientific debunking of the trance myth with anecdotes from his career illustrating them his own performances, all without using hypnosis, of course.
"Fab night at @Brum_Skeptics with Martin Taylor" - Dr. Jo MacIver
Total Running Time 1h55m – Talk 56m; Q & A 59m.
Like a Virgin - Dr Aarathi Prasad
Religions place humans at the centre of creation and provide the idea that such perfectly made beings tamper with their nature at their peril but what is evolution of reproduction if not a history of biological tweaks going back millions of years? Dr. Aarathi Prasad, science journalist, author and broadcaster explores how technology could be used to allow infertile couples, of any sex, to have their own biological children by creating a true virgin birth.
"Fascinating talk on parthenogenesis, and the many weird and wonderful things that happen in reproduction" - Chris Bainbridge, Birmingham
Total Running Time 1h13m – Talk 42m; Q & A 31m.
Electric Cars are Rubbish. Aren't They? - Robert Llewellyn
Robert Llewellyn is an actor, writer, comedian, TV presenter, self-described conflicted wet liberal and probably the UK's most prominent advocate of electric vehicles, presenting a YouTube show Fully Charged which documents current developments in the electric vehicle industry. In this eye-opening, hilarious and slightly sweary talk he dispels the myths and misapprehensions of electric cars leaving Clarkson and the petrochemical industry in his solar panel powered wake.
"For all his self-deprecation... (Robert Llewellyn)...is an entertaining, knowledgeable & realistic evangelist for electric cars. " - Simon Stanford, Birmingham
"Wonderfully entertaining and informative" Andy Pickering, Rugby
Total Running Time 1h38m – Talk 58m; Q & A 40m.
At our talks we also sell copies of The Skeptic magazine as a service to our attendees.

We currently film with three HD 1080 cameras with occasional footage from a fourth (for the technically minded the post-edit output is 720). Prior to talk 9 (Robert Llewellyn) some of the cameras used were not HD. The first DVD was filmed simply with a single locked-off HD camera.

I've got to be honest, I am not the biggest fan of winter. I don't mind a couple months of freezing temperatures and snow, but it's not my favorite season. However, with that said, I will admit the winter offers some wonderful opportunities for photography, especially along Lake Michigan's shoreline.
Above some scenes I photographed the past couple of weeks. The top picture is the Ludington north breakwater lighthouse taken on December 22 and the bottom picture is the Ludington south breakwater beacon taken December 28.

The photographs in my book speak to a hope and belief in the future of our planet. Many were taken not far from New York City in waterways that have been brought back to health through environmental efforts over the last 50 years.
Included are photographs of the beautiful Atlantic coastline, the graceful Connecticut rivers and the vibrant estuaries and marshes of the northeast. These now clean waters support and nourish wild birds.

Bucknell's Mike Nicholson
June 5, 2012
From Bucknell Athletic Communications
LEWISBURG, Pa. - Four members of the Bucknell swimming and diving program have now qualified for the U.S. Olympic Trials. Rising junior Mike Nicholson, at this past weekend's Santa Clara International Grand Prix, posted an Olympic Trials-qualifying time in the 400 IM, beating the standard by .01 seconds. He will join fellow Bison Matthew Segar (200 free), Erik Heinemann (200 fly) and Emily Norton (200 breast) at the Olympic Trials. That trio had posted qualifying marks at various times over the past year.
The Olympic Trials will take place June 25-July 2 in Omaha, Neb.
Nicholson competed at the Santa Clara meet along with Bucknell teammates Christian Treat and Kelly Pontecorvo. All three had solid performances during the weekend meet that featured some of the best swimmers in the world, including U.S. Olympians Natalie Coughlin, Nathan Adrian, Anthony Ervin and Dana Vollmer. Additionally, a large contingent of international swimmers was at the meet, including Olympic gold medalists Lesiel Jones and Stephanie Rice from Australia.
Nicholson achieved his Olympic Trials cut in the prelims of the 400-meter IM as he touched the wall in 4 minutes, 30.48 seconds. He finished ninth in the prelim and followed that up with a ninth-place showing in the "A" final. Nicholson also swam the 200 fly during the meet and placed second in the "C" final, 20th overall. His finals time of 2:04.63 was .81 seconds faster than his prelim time.
Treat had a busy weekend as he reached the "C" final in the 100 breast, 200 breast and 200 IM. His best finish was in the 100 breast when he finished fourth in the "C" final and 22nd overall.
Pontecorvo had the highest finish of the three Bison in action this past weekend as she placed eighth out of 16 swimmers in the 1,500 freestyle. She registered a time of 17:35.61 in the race that kicked off the four-day meet.
The meet was contested in long course meters, versus the shorter yards the Bison student-athletes are accustomed to from the college regular season.
Nicholson, Treat and Pontecorvo have piled up impressive resumes during their Bucknell careers. Nicholson is a two-time First Team All-Patriot League selection, while Treat, a rising senior, is a two-time Patriot League Men's Swimming and Diving Scholar Athlete of the Year and a three-time All-Patriot League honoree. Pontecorvo, who will be a junior in the fall, has been named Second Team All-Patriot League in each of her first two college campaigns.

It reminds me of when the Alyatollah and his minions took over the Embassy in Tehran. These pukes were so emboldened they were chanting "Death To America" in the streets of Los Angeles. At least till some big bruiser waded into their midst and laid one out with a sraight right jab to the snot locker. The anchor on the evening news, John Chancellor, was appalled, of course. I laughed my head off.
Carol, I missed Cynthia's link, thanks.
Its hard to have all this information and not share it with everyone you know. I would like to do something positive with it like tell the entire country.
Thanks Royce and Jane for the links you provided. It further explains our demise of being "taken from within."
The information ties the attacks together and leads to who is pulling the strings for our puppet leadership. It is not just an inside government problem, but a global one that is paving the way to a one world caliphate and allegiance. Jane, it looks like we are right under the claws of the Steppinwolf Monster.
At the end of the article Jane linked to, I can't help but to reiterate that our election process is controlled by a much higher power. How eye opening!
Believe it or not, it all ties right in with the Bible.
Thomas - Good and bad news. Beck just said that other journalists have filed stories to further expose this mess, but upper mgt. killed them.
Beck is asking again that the msm look at the documentation. Maybe someone at Fox (Hannity?) will get involved. Hope so.
Might behoove these "journalists" to look at the evidence rather than the messenger.
They are in on it. They are as treasonous as the politicians.
