GREENVILLE, N.C. - The East Carolina baseball team will host its annual Letterwinners Day and its Exceptional Community Baseball League (ECBL) game this weekend at Lewis Field inside Clark-LeClair Stadium.
Prior to first pitch on Saturday, Apr. 28 (approximately 1:45 p.m.), ECU will recognize nearly 30 former letterwinners, which include Hall of Famers Dennis Burke, Cotton Clayton, Ron Hastings, Ms. Betty Mallory (representing Jim Mallory), Dr. Gary Overton and Al Vaughn. Also scheduled to attend are: Scott Andrews, Addison Bass, Dennis Barbour, Geoff Beaston, Billy Best, Jimmy Byrd, Brian Cavanaugh, Frank Cerruzzi, Heath Clark, Wally Cockrell, Jake Dean, Terry Durham, Jay Edwards, Clarence Hardison, Austin Homan, Charlie Johnston, Jim Martin, Bob Menifee, Tom Moye, Sonny Robinson, Josh Potter, Mike Sanburn, Nick Schnabel, Lin Spears, Corey Scott, Russell Smith, Wilbur Thompson, Wayne Vick, Doug Watts, Ted Whitley, Floyd Wicker, Trent Whitehead and George Whitfield.
Following Sunday's series finale (approximately 30 minutes), ECU will hold its annual ECBL game. Acting in a buddy system, the Pirates will help the eight-team league (roughly 50 participants) with all phases of the game such as hitting, fielding and throwing.
Basic Rules of ECBL are as follows:
1. Teams can include as many as 6-10 players.
2. Each player has a "buddy" which will assist each player during the course of the game.
3. Every player on the roster gets to bat and play the field each inning.
4. No score will be kept.

The Season Of A Healthy Me( AKA The Winter 5% Challenge) Part 1
Friday, January 10, 2014
I have updated my page and my profile picture in anticipation of this challenge. I chose this picture of the female warrior because she is strong and beautiful but also she is is looking ahead to future battles and not back at past battles. This is how I am approaching the Winter 5%
Challenge, I will not look back at pass challenges, this is the challenge that starts my healthier future. I have dusted off my stationary bike,gazelle, and put fresh batteries in my Wii. I have my
shoes ready (Santa bought me a new pair) and my Fitbit Force is ready to record my steps!!!
I went through my kitchen and removed all of the unhealthy snacks and I will be grocery shopping next week for healthy foods. I will be going through Spark recipes,my cookbooks and health magazines for new healthy recipes.
My diet plan is to stay within my calorie range and to increase my consumption of veggies. I also plan to cut way back on processed foods and cut back on my wine. my exercise plan is to get at least 30 minutes of cardio 5 days a week and add strength training at least twice a week. I really need to work on the strength training.
I am not a list maker as far as my fitness is concerned,I find I tend to became to fixated on completeing the list and then I become upset if I don't complete that days exercise. As I am an all or nothing type of person this makes me feel like a failure and it becomes a viscious cycle.
I have however decided to make a weekly list of all the things I did right. I tend not to appreciate myself. So this is als the season of loving myself. I do however have a few things I do to make it easier to plan my day. I plan my dinners out for two weeks in advance. I make sure there are quick and healthy things on hand so I will not skip breakfast, such as yogurt, fresh fruit, and healthy cereals to name a few. I am doing all of this to get healthy and oh to lose weight. To be honest all of this started to lose weight but then became all about getting healthier. Don't get me wrong I still want to lose weight, losing weight will help make it easier to breathe with my COPD, it will also help my knees from aching so much. I also want to look good in my tie dye dress again!!!! I want to have more energy and confidence. To lose the weight I have to watch my triggers. I have given this a lot of thought, I do not have trigger foods..... I have trigger emotions. Lonliness and stress are the biggest, when these hit I go grazing and I have discovered that any food will do. I perfer salty foods or ice cream but if these aren't available I will find something else....anything else...as long as it isn't healthy.
I have to learn not to sweat the small stuff, sometimes I stress over things and realize that they aren't worth getting worked up over. I am sure the world won't end if I don't run the vacuum every day. I probably wouldn't be so lonely if I actually got out of the house and met people. So I will work on these things to keep the triggers away.

I can relate to so much of what you've written. I too am an all or nothing person, which can really mess things up some times. It's something I'm always working on. Making a list of positive choices is a great idea - I'm going to steal it! I'm trying to focus on being kinder to myself as well, especially when I look in the mirror, which is when I tend to be my harshest critic. I'm also working on letting go of the small stuff. In my case, I need to lighten up on my kids when they haven't picked up every article of dirty clothing, homework, etc. It's not that important in the big scheme of things.
You are a kind, thoughtful, supportive person. I have faith in you!

Fantastic blog! Sounds like you've really done some great planning to get ready for this challenge. Like you, I tend to get obsessed by lists and feel like a failure if I don't accomplish each little thing. What a great idea to make lists of all the positive things you've accomplished rather than what needs to be improved! I think you're really ON to something here!
Good luck on this start to a healthier, fitter, happier you!

Graduate Programs
Back to Program List | Program Website
Neuroscience, Cell Biology, and Physiology
IntroductionThe Department of Neuroscience, Cell Biology and Physiology offers two tracks of graduate study leading to the Master of Science degree (M.S.) in (1) anatomy and (2) physiology and neuroscienc. A continuation of graduate studies with faculty in the Department of Neuroscience, Cell Biology and Physiology leading to a Doctor of Philosophy (Ph.D.) degree is available through the Biomedical Sciences Ph.D. Program.
Certificate Program in Anatomy
The anatomy track certificate program is a three-quarter, post-baccalaureate program. The program provides graduate-level education in three of the four human anatomy core courses microanatomy, gross anatomy, embryology, and neurobiology. The program is applicable to physical therapists, occupational therapists, physician assistants, athletic trainers, health and physical education majors, and others in allied health disciplines.
Minimum requirements include an overall undergraduate grade point average of 3.0-plus. Although there are no uniform prerequisites, it is recommended that applicants have completed at least two years of biology, including vertebrate anatomy, and two years of chemistry, including organic chemistry. Letters of recommendation are an important admission consideration.
Students who do not plan to complete the degree program or who do not meet the admission requirements of the School of Graduate Studies may be admitted on a non-degree basis in order to take selected anatomy courses. Written permission by the appropriate course director is required to enroll in each anatomy course. Contact the Anatomy Department for information concerning enrollment procedures.
Admission RequirementsPhysiology & Neurocience
The requirements for admission are:
1. B.A., B.S., or equivalent degree
2. Overall GPA of 3.00-plus or GRE total of 1100 (minimum 500 verbal; 500 mathematics)
3. The following prerequisite courses: general biology (one year), general chemistry (one year), general physics (one year), mathematics (one year through introductory calculus), and one year of advanced study in biology, chemistry, physics, or computer science
Degree RequirementsDegree RequirementsAnatomy
In addition to the requirements of the School of Graduate Studies, the following requirements of the Department of Anatomy must be met:
1. Completion of a minimum of 45 or 50 graduate credit hours (see number 4) in courses that have prior approval of the department. Approval is normally given through the students faculty advisor.
2. The graduate credits must include 33 credit hours of core courses in anatomy.
3. Required courses are human gross anatomy, human microanatomy, advanced human embryology, human neurobiology, and four seminars.
4. There are two program-of-study options leading to a masters degree:
a. Course Option (50 credits): In addition to the 33 credits listed above, students are required to take an oral comprehensive examination covering the core anatomy courses listed above, assist with teaching an anatomy department course, learn a research technique, and write a scholarly paper. The remaining 3 credits include elective graduate courses in the anatomy or other science department.
b. Thesis Option (45 credits): Requires the submission and oral defense of a thesis based on original research performed while enrolled as a graduate student at the university. Two major research interests in the department are neuroscience and immunology. Students interested in pathobiology research may substitute courses in immunobiology and pathogenic mechanisms for human gross anatomy.
Degree Requirements--Physiology & Neuroscience
In order to qualify for the Master of Science degree, students must satisfy the requirements of the School of Graduate Studies as well as program requirements. The first four quarters involve 3537 credit hours which include required departmental and other courses determined in consultation with the students advisor. Research activities begin in the summer of the first year. The second program year involves 1830 credit hours with emphasis on research. Completed research is presented in written thesis form at the end of the second year, with a public oral defense.

Ash Still Clouds EU Air Traffic Decisions
The European Commission's reaction to the air crisis that stranded millions of passengers and lost airlines round the world billions of dollars of revenues has been speedy.
But don't expect a final decision on the key part of the reaction -– a single EU air traffic controller and safety enforcer -– to be swift. That's out of the commission's hands and is down to getting agreement between member states, few of which want to give up control of their own airspace.
The proposed measures address the key criticisms of the handling of the crisis, which shut down much of the airspace above northern and central Europe for six days:
1) The EU will allow financial support for airlines, which were already suffering due to the economic downturn. Any support must be fair, meet soon-to-be-announced rules from the commission, and must be directly related to the crisis. That's fair, and in line with support given to the auto industry, they say.
2) Airlines must treat the stranded passengers uniformly and fairly –- they must all pay for meals, drinks and hotels for those stranded. That's also fair enough under the current rules, although these rules need to be looked at in the future. Fair enough that airlines pay for those stranded by something that's an airline's fault. But not so fair when airlines can't fly due to something outside their control like air authorities shutting down air space due to a volcanic ash cloud. What else are insurers for if not to cover such costs?
3) Rules such as restrictions on night flights should be temporarily relaxed to allow more flights to bring home stranded passengers. Again, fair enough. (If you do live under a flight path, then it's your choice to do so……)
However, the biggest proposal is to create a single air authority for Europe. There are already talks going on with the aim of creating such a body by 2012. The commission now wants the body created by the end of this year. That's not going to be easy given how long it normally takes to get member states to agree on anything that involves national sovereignty.
The trick for the commission will be to produce a body that's strong enough to take control in a situation like the ash cloud crisis, but still leaves ultimate control of airspace to national governments. The body would only be responsible for commercial airspace and wouldn't be responsible for military flights.

While most of the media, including the alternative media, has been focused primarily on our psychopathic leaders' attempt to drag us into a Syrian civil war alongside al-Qaeda, some really crucial new information has been released about the NSA from the Snowden documents.
Specifically, we now know the lengths to which the NSA has fought to make encryption useless. Disturbingly, there was a debate about all of this in the 1990's. Back then the NSA, with the help of the Clinton administration, attempted to install a backdoor into all encryption called a "Clipper Chip." This was shot down, but the NSA went ahead and did it covertly anyway. This is the type of total unconstitutional slime we are dealing with.
The most absurd part of the recent revelations is the realization that the NSA isn't actually cracking most of the encryption due to smarts or math, but rather by coercing major technology companies to allow them unfettered access. Part of this coercion unsurprisingly revolves around generous monetary payoffs to "grease the surveillance wheels" courtesy of a hefty Black Budget.
The first highlighted article is from yesterday's New York Times. The information is so devastating to the already battered reputation of the criminal NSA that according to the paper:
Intelligence officials asked The Times and ProPublica not to publish this article, saying it might prompt foreign targets to switch to new forms of encryption or communications that would be harder to collect or read. The news organizations removed some specific facts but decided to publish the article because of the value of a public debate about government actions that weaken the most powerful privacy tools.
Some key excepts below:
Many users assume — or have been assured by Internet companies — that their data is safe from prying eyes, including those of the government, and the N.S.A. wants to keep it that way. The agency treats its recent successes in deciphering protected information as among its most closely guarded secrets, restricted to those cleared for a highly classified program code-named Bullrun, according to the documents, provided by Edward J. Snowden, the former N.S.A. contractor.
Beginning in 2000, as encryption tools were gradually blanketing the Web, the N.S.A. invested billions of dollars in a clandestine campaign to preserve its ability to eavesdrop. Having lost a public battle in the 1990s to insert its own "back door" in all encryption, it set out to accomplish the same goal by stealth.
The N.S.A. hacked into target computers to snare messages before they were encrypted. In some cases, companies say they were coerced by the government into handing over their master encryption keys or building in a back door. And the agency used its influence as the world's most experienced code maker to covertly introduce weaknesses into the encryption standards followed by hardware and software developers around the world.
Paul Kocher, a leading cryptographer who helped design the SSL protocol, recalled how the N.S.A. lost the heated national debate in the 1990s about inserting into all encryption a government back door called the Clipper Chip.
"And they went and did it anyway, without telling anyone," Mr. Kocher said. He said he understood the agency's mission but was concerned about the danger of allowing it unbridled access to private information.
Intelligence officials asked The Times and ProPublica not to publish this article, saying it might prompt foreign targets to switch to new forms of encryption or communications that would be harder to collect or read. The news organizations removed some specific facts but decided to publish the article because of the value of a public debate about government actions that weaken the most powerful privacy tools.
The full extent of the N.S.A.'s decoding capabilities is known only to a limited group of top analysts from the so-called Five Eyes: the N.S.A. and its counterparts in Britain, Canada, Australia and New Zealand. Only they are cleared for the Bullrun program, the successor to one called Manassas — both names of an American Civil War battle. A parallel GCHQ counterencryption program is called Edgehill, named for the first battle of the English Civil War of the 17th century.
Think about the fact that they named these programs after Civil War battles. What does that tell us about how they view "the people" in relation to government?
According to an intelligence budget document leaked by Mr. Snowden, the N.S.A. spends more than $250 million a year on its Sigint Enabling Project, which "actively engages the U.S. and foreign IT industries to covertly influence and/or overtly leverage their commercial products' designs" to make them "exploitable." Sigint is the acronym for signals intelligence, the technical term for electronic eavesdropping.
In one case, after the government learned that a foreign intelligence target had ordered new computer hardware, the American manufacturer agreed to insert a back door into the product before it was shipped, someone familiar with the request told The Times.
The 2013 N.S.A. budget request highlights "partnerships with major telecommunications carriers to shape the global network to benefit other collection accesses" — that is, to allow more eavesdropping.
At Microsoft, as The Guardian has reported, the N.S.A. worked with company officials to get pre-encryption access to Microsoft's most popular services, including Outlook e-mail, Skype Internet phone calls and chats, and SkyDrive, the company's cloud storage service.
By introducing such back doors, the N.S.A. has surreptitiously accomplished what it had failed to do in the open. Two decades ago, officials grew concerned about the spread of strong encryption software like Pretty Good Privacy, designed by a programmer named Phil Zimmermann. The Clinton administration fought back by proposing the Clipper Chip, which would have effectively neutered digital encryption by ensuring that the N.S.A. always had the key.
Now for the second article, which is by world renowned security expert, Bruce Schneier, who's excellent analysis I have relied on many times in the past. In an excellent Guardian article, he puts forth a rallying cry for engineers to "take back the internet." Excerpts below:
Government and industry have betrayed the internet, and us.
By subverting the internet at every level to make it a vast, multi-layered and robust surveillance platform, the NSA has undermined a fundamental social contract. The companies that build and manage our internet infrastructure, the companies that create and sell us our hardware and software, or the companies that host our data: we can no longer trust them to be ethical internet stewards.
This is not the internet the world needs, or the internet its creators envisioned. We need to take it back.
And by we, I mean the engineering community.
One, we should expose. If you do not have a security clearance, and if you have not received a National Security Letter, you are not bound by a federal confidentially requirements or a gag order. If you have been contacted by the NSA to subvert a product or protocol, you need to come forward with your story. Your employer obligations don't cover illegal or unethical activity. If you work with classified data and are truly brave, expose what you know. We need whistleblowers.
We need to know how exactly how the NSA and other agencies are subverting routers, switches, the internet backbone, encryption technologies and cloud systems. I already have five stories from people like you, and I've just started collecting. I want 50. There's safety in numbers, and this form of civil disobedience is the moral thing to do.
Two, we can design. We need to figure out how to re-engineer the internet to prevent this kind of wholesale spying. We need new techniques to prevent communications intermediaries from leaking private information.
Three, we can influence governance. I have resisted saying this up to now, and I am saddened to say it, but the US has proved to be an unethical steward of the internet. The UK is no better. The NSA's actions are legitimizing the internet abuses by China, Russia, Iran and others. We need to figure out new means of internet governance, ones that makes it harder for powerful tech countries to monitor everything. For example, we need to demand transparency, oversight, and accountability from our governments and corporations.
To the engineers, I say this: we built the internet, and some of us have helped to subvert it. Now, those of us who love liberty have to fix it.
In Liberty,

Detroit Red Wings general manager Ken Holland announced on Monday that the team had re-signed forward Dan Cleary to a two-year deal.
Cleary, who signed with Detroit for the 2005-06 season after a training camp tryout, will reportedly earn $1.325 million over the life of the deal.
"Dan's a gritty player and we value what he brings to the team," said Holland. "I'm glad he will be in a Red Wings jersey for the next two seasons."
A former first-round draft pick, Cleary scored 15 points in 77 games with Detroit last season. He has totalled 127 points in 406 NHL games.
Before coming to the Red Wings, Cleary played for the Chicago, Edmonton and Phoenix.

You Might (One Day) be Able to Steam PC Games to an Xbox One
Well this is exciting.
Well this is exciting.
All rounded up here for your pre-install pleasure.
We've come to the end of E3 week, and with that came a whole barrel of new gaming announcements. So if you're looking to upgrade your gaming system and play these new games, which one is now the best?
Rather nice, it has to be said.
If you want something that feels like an Xbox, but can play The Last Of Us, this is probably your best option.
Much more than just a stereo headphone jack, Microsoft's newly-revealed Xbox Elite Wireless Controller is a modular, remap-able and tweak-able work of engineering art.
That's right: backwards compatibility. Finally
The stage is set for a bumper E3 year. Here are predictions, hopes and dreams for this year's gaming blowout.
We'll give you a hint: it has something to do with gaming.
Microsoft's first console once had a very different battle plan for taking on Nintendo and Sony.
If they throw in a Hololens you could actually be Master Chief.
Yes Windows 8 was a mess, and the Xbox One's early days were embarrassing, but Microsoft's been sharpening its game with impressive deftness and speed. And now it is once again, hands down, the most exciting company in tech.
Until now game streaming has been for devotees only. But Microsoft just invited the filthy casuals like me.
While you were sleeping, Microsoft had a tonne of in depth announcements about free upgrades, the future of Windows Phones, playing Xbox games on PC, and putting holodeck goggles on your face.
It's not just that though. You know all that cool Game DVR stuff the Xbox One can do? Well the Xbox app can do it too, and it'll work for any game running on Windows.
Or should it just cover iOS Office in adverts and surrender mobile altogether?

Over nearly thirty years, the threads of all those who have worked at Cain have been deeply woven into the vinicultural fabric of the Napa Valley. Through the years, many people have contributed to the Cain wines. While some have continued to work at Cain for more than ten years, others have gone on to plant other vineyards, make other wines, and to sell other wines: some are working for other vineyards and wineries, and others have begun their own projects. We can count literally dozens of wines that have been touched by those who also touched the wines of Cain.

Streetcars have been around for some 200 years, beginning with horse-drawn cars ("horsecars"), evolving to steam power, pulled by cables in the ground (San Francisco cable cars), and eventually powered by electricity from overhead lines. They've been called trams and trolleys, and sometimes disparaged for being slow and noisy.
But there's also something romantic about them streetcars, and they've been featured in movies and songs. When I was a wee lad in New York, I might have ridden a streetcar in Manhattan or Brooklyn, and I've ridden them in New Orleans and San Francisco as well as the trams in Europe. Although my heartstrings didn't go zing, zing, zing, the rides in San Francisco provided a pleasant enough tourist experience, while the New Orleans and European streetcars were and remain useful transit options.
A few years ago, the Obama Administration began providing funds , such as TIGER (Transportation Investment Generating Economic Recovery) grants, for new public transportation systems, including streetcars. That's why many US cities are now rolling out new lines.
The new streetcars are often a far cry from the handful of vintage lines in a few US cities and many in Europe. They look closer to traditional light rail cars, which are sleek and sport large windows. In fact, streetcars are often considered a light rail form of transportation.
Like light rail, they typically provide a smoother, quieter, more comfortable ride for passengers than buses. But unlike light rail, streetcars are often a lot less expensive to install, and many times less expensive than subways. That's some of the good news.
Some of the bad news is streetcar systems are much more expensive to implement than just adding additional buses. Also, streetcars run on tracks, so they can't travel on the regular surfaces if there's an accident or traffic backup. They just have to wait until the problem is resolved. Buses can switch lanes to avoid tie-ups.
In addition, streetcars often share the same road as vehicles, so there's no fast track (sorry, pun) to avoid heavy traffic. Sometimes streetcars move along a separate vehicle-free lane, like traditional light rail. At least one report illustrates that streetcars are a slow form of public transportation.
However, proponents cite an advantage for cities beyond transportation: business development. In fact, that might be the most important advantage. Streetcars require city infrastructure, such as in-ground metal tracks and overhead electrical lines, that connote a certain amount of permanence. Unlike buses that can be easily removed to other neighborhoods, streetcars imply to business people that the line will remain.
That means retailers and real estate developers for apartment buildings and houses have more confidence that streetcar traffic will continue. Increased development also means more jobs and additional tax revenues for cities.
Portland, a poster child for liberal and green construction, has profited from more business along its streetcars. Streetcar boosters in other cities are touting the business benefits. But business also could be sparked by other new transportation systems such as light rail trains, bus rapid transit systems, and subways. And those systems are much faster and often travel greater distances than streetcars.
Streetcars can succeed in Europe because they are firmly integrated as a major component of a country's overall transportation ecosystem, often travel in a lane separate from traffic, and serve populations that are more attuned towards public transit than America's car-oriented culture.
In the US, such cities as Arlington, Va.; Cincinnati; Charlotte; Dallas; Detroit; Fort Lauderdale; Milwaukee; Kansas City; Minneapolis; Oklahoma City; Salt Lake City; San Antonio; Seattle; Tacoma, Wash.; Tucson, Ariz.; and Washington, D.C. are planning or recently launching new streetcars. The jury is still out on whether streetcars are better for cities and residents than other forms of transportation.
Based on my research, it appears that other public transportation systems in the US might make more sense financially and for efficient transportation. But as long as lobbyists ply their trade for funds, cities are willing, and there aren't any horror stories, streetcar implementation will continue.

Rest in Peace, Sweet Abel

Sable became best friends with our two labs Baxter (11) and Annie (12). Night and day, Sable followed Baxter around no matter where he went and only two weeks after she came to us, Sable started greeting the family members at the door together with our two other labs!!
We showered her with love, pain meds, and good food and she loved us back every day! Sable crossed the rainbow bridge in my arms on April 27 after suffering three debilitating seizures. We couldnt save Sable but we gave her the best 7 months of her life, we miss you so much little Sable girl.
As LR volunteers we strive to save all of the dogs we rescue but due to circumstance sometimes this outcome is impossible.
To you Peanut, we are sorry, we loved you and we will see you again.
Arthur had big brown expressive eyes, the spirit of a puppy and a smile that could brighten anyones day. He was an all around goofball that loved to chase tennis balls or just hold one...or two in his mouth. Arthur was joyful, loving, and gentle and we know that in his heart he was grateful to have been rescued.
We will never understand how someone could leave him at the shelter in his senior years. We often wonder if the dogs that are abandoned were ever loved before they are rescued. We wondered the same about Arthur. All we know for sure is that he was loved by us for the 15 months we had him as our foster. We hope it was enough for a lifetime. Thank you for all the smiles, Big Boy! We miss you.
Caty always woke with the sun, and every morning when we came downstairs, she would gallop to greet us.
She was convinced that food was created especially for her and she celebrated every meal with an excited dance. Our girl also loved walking. Even when she began to tire, she didnt like to turn around to return home, and if she could find a detour on the way back, she would always try to add just a few minutes more.
We will always wish we could have had a few minutes more with Caty, but if there is a doggy heaven, we know she is bringing smiles to one and all.

I am looking for a printer+ scanner device that any computer on my network can print, without switching on other computer. Usually, the way we setup a printer is that we have a host computer that connects to the printer/scanner, and all other computers connect to it to access the print function.
But this means that the host machine must be on all the time for the print functionality to be accessible by everyone. Is there a printer that can connect to all the machines ( via router, say) and is accessible when any machine that is switched on without depending on other machine?

Postgame with Niya Butts.
Postgame with Davellyn Whyte and Shanita Arnold.
TUCSON - Behind sophomore Davellyn Whyte's 28 points, the University of Arizona Wildcat women's basketball team topped the Western State College Mountaineers, 109-62, in exhibition play at McKale Center on Sunday.
"Our offense was outstanding and I'm happy we can score," head coach Niya Butts said. "We have to take care of the ball better, and our post defense has to improve or we will have a tough season. I have faith that we can make the necessary adjustments. As fast as we are playing, I know that there are some turnovers that will happen but we can't keep making sloppy mistakes like dribbling off the foot or passing the ball out of bounds. "Now, we're going to get ready for our game at Wichita State and hopefully start off the season with a win."
Whyte led all scorers with 28 points. She also pitched in with six rebounds and went 5-of-8 from behind the arc. Including Whyte, five Wildcats scored in double-digit figures. Junior guard Shanita Arnold scored 22 points and picked her first double-double with 15 assists.
"Offensively, we played well tonight," Whyte said. "We're concentrating on defense and rebounding but we didn't do as well on that tonight, so in practice, we'll probably focus on boards. Because of the zone, it was hard to shoot on the outside but once we got inside and started getting baskets, we were okay. We are so much farther now than we were last year, and Coach wants us to play like we know how to play, no matter the team."
Freshman Erica Barnes had a standout game on both sides of the court. She scored 15 points and grabbed six rebounds. Junior guard Brooke Jackson notched 13 points and senior Ify Ibekwe also contributed with 12 points. Ibekwe also added 12 rebounds to the team total.
The Mountaineers were led by junior guard Nikki Trujillo who scored 18 points. Defensively, WSC picked up nine rebounds from sophomore guard Katie Hall.
The Wildcats will open the regular season on the road at Wichita State. Tip-off is scheduled for Fri., Nov. 12, at 7 p.m. CT, in Wichita, Kan.

Window Shadows and Reflections. Salzburg, Austria. July 17, 2013. © Copyright 2013 G Dan Mitchell – all rights reserved.
The shadows and faint reflections of a window create patterns on a wall in Salzburg, Austria
Although we did not actually stay in Salzburg during out July 2013 travels, we managed to end up there on four of our 7 days in Bavaria. Our trail from Heidelberg arrived in Salzburg and our return train departed here. On a couple of other days we were traveling around the area to visit various features not far from Salzburg, so we ended up there for a few hours – on two occasions having a late lunch, taking part in Salzburg's "coffee culture," and then wandering around. We did see some of the main tourist places, such as the square near the Salzburg Cathedral, the castle, and the narrow and bustling (and a bit uncomfortably commercial) streets of the old downtown, but we also managed to walk through a few less busy areas.
Some of these walks took us through some very narrow and old streets between the main part of old Salzburg and the outlying area where we parked. Here the buildings sit right up against the streets, and the streets themselves were obviously constructed in a pre-automobile era since they are barely a single car wide. Many things intrigued me about these narrow streets beside their mere narrowness: the various muted colors of the buildings, the ways the streets twist and turn and come together at odd angles, the interesting way that the light played on the scene as it came down from far above or shone down street that aligned with the sun, and some of the architectural features such as the windows and the interesting metal street lights that seemed to be everywhere. In this photograph the sun was rather high in the sky but almost in line with the street, and the image of the shadows of the open windows almost mirrors the fainter pattern of the reflections from the glass.

Ranked among the nation's most integrated healthcare systems, Community Health Network is Central Indiana's leader in providing convenient access to exceptional healthcare services, where and when patients need them—in hospitals, health pavilions, workplaces, schools and homes.
Children's teeth begin developing in the fetus. Good nutrition from the mother during pregnancy is important in the development of the teeth. The mother's diet should have adequate amounts of calcium, phosphorus, vitamin C, and vitamin D. Certain medications, such as tetracycline, should not be taken by the mother while she is pregnant as this can cause harm to the developing teeth of the embryo. There are four main stages of development of the tooth:
Each tooth has four main parts, including the following:
While every child is different, most of the primary teeth (baby teeth) come in between the ages of 4 and 12 months. The following are general guidelines for the eruption of the baby teeth:
The teeth on the upper jaw usually erupt one to two months after the same tooth on the lower jaw. There are a total of 20 primary teeth. Usually, about one tooth erupts per month once the teeth have started coming in. There is normally a space between all the baby teeth. This leaves room for the larger permanent teeth to erupt.
Eruption of teeth happens at different times for each child. Below, we have provided average ages of eruption and shedding:
Your child will begin losing his/her primary teeth (baby teeth) around the age of 6. The first teeth to be lost are usually the central incisors. This is then followed by the eruption of the first permanent molars. The last baby tooth is usually lost around the age of 12, and is the cuspid or second molar. There will be a total of 32 permanent, or adult, teeth.

WASHINGTON (AP) — Senate leaders say they've reached a deal that clears the way for a vote on Senate passage of a $109 billion bill to overhaul federal highway and transit programs.
Majority Leader Harry Reid said late Wednesday the agreement limits the number of amendments to be voted upon to 30.
He said the Senate will begin slogging through the amendments on Thursday, and it's possible that a vote on passage of the bill could come that night.
Reid plans to immediately send the bill over to the House, where GOP leaders have been struggling to corral enough votes to pass their own five-year bill.
Congress is facing a March 31 deadline. That's when the government's authority to dispense highway aid and collect about $110 million a day in gasoline taxes expires.

PA Gets EU Bailout
The European Union has agreed to save the Palestinian Authority from a financial crisis that led it to stop paying full employee salaries. EU officials are giving 22.5 million euros to help the PA pay its roughly 170,000 public employees.
In addition, Sweden is giving four million euros.
PA Prime Minister Salam Fayyad thanked Swedish officials Thursday, and called on other countries to follow Sweden's lead. He mentioned the Arab world in particular.
Fayyad has accused Arab countries of playing a part in the current crisis by failing to follow through on promises of aid.
International organizations have warned for years that the PA, never a self-sufficient entity, is becoming increasingly dependent on aid. Fayyad argues that the PA is ready for a state anyway.
Fayyad has also claimed that the PA is heading in the right direction, a claim disputed by experts.
Among the elements of the PA economy criticized by experts is the fact that the PA employs more than 170,000 people, despite currently being responsible for an estimated 1.5 million residents. Tens of thousands of the PA employees live in Gaza, where they have continued to receive salaries for several years despite being replaced by Hamas employees in 2007.

Dear colleagues and friends,
The VIIth edition of Recent Advances in Neonatal Medicine 2014* was dedicated to my friend Prof. Tore Curstedt, MD, PhD, Stockholm, one of the most prominent European scientists in surfactant research. Recent Advances in Neonatal Medicine has become the largest scientific and educational forum outside the United States of America.
As with previous symposia in Tübingen (1996) and in Würzburg (1999, 2002, 2005, 2008 and 2011) the most recent achievements in basic science and clinical research in neonatal medicine have been presented at this symposium. In addition, workshops have covered the most relevant clinical issues in neonatology, and young registered investigators and neonatologists have presented own scientific data at a guided poster session.
In 2014, neonatologists from 65 nations enjoyed the exceptionally high quality of the scientific and clinical presentations and the unique opportunity to discuss relevant topics with the members of the faculty. Their response and numerous positive comments were highly motivating, and it is a great pleasure to provide another exciting program at the next conference in 2017.
I am most grateful to all speakers and chairmen, - highly respected and distinguished clinicians and scientists – and the sponsors of Recent Advances in Neonatal Medicine 2014; without their help it would have been impossible to invite such a prominent faculty and to offer considerably reduced registration fees for participants from low- and middle income countries.
I hope you can join us at another "Recent Advances in Neonatal Medicine" and I am looking forward to welcome you to Würzburg in October 2017.
With best regards,
Christian P. Speer, MD, FRCPE
Professor of Pediatrics
Director and Chairman
University Children's Hospital Würzburg / Germany

This season when the Minnesota Vikings are 10 point underdogs there isn't too much to hope for on a Sunday afternoon. But like most Sunday's this squad amazes me in some way that I would have never expected. I actually was quite impressed with the Minnesota Vikings effort on both sides of the ball. Here's a couple reasons why.
First, I did think this was the best game of the year for Christian Ponder. He made some nice throws. He kept some plays alive with his feet and even ran in for a touch down. He had a pretty bad interception but with doing other things well it wasn't the main thing to remember about his performance.
Second, I think the defense was very solid. The Vikings got pressure on Romo. The defense really stopped the Cowboys running game. The defense also created turnovers. Unfortunately their performance might solely be graded by some on the last drive, but I still think their performance was solid.
Third, it was sure nice to see the offensive line open up some running lanes for Adrian Peterson. Watching AP run over people is one of the best parts about Minnesota Viking football. AP must have the ball in his hands for this team to even have a chance and yesterday's play calling gave AP that chance.
Last, just some perspective about this game. I have a friend who is a very HUGE Dallas Cowboys fan. I was excited about the game and how the Vikings played and then talking with my friend he was crabby and dare I say mad. He wasn't impressed with his squad and kept saying and I'm paraphrasing, yea sure we win this now, win the division and then lose in the first round of the playoffs. What good is that? Right now I must say, I'd take winning with a good quarterback any day over getting a good draft pick, but that's just me.

The U. S. Forest Service released a Travel Management Rule in November 2005 for managing motorized use on National Forest lands. This rule provides a framework for each National Forest to identify and designate roads, trails, and areas suitable for motorized use. Use of motor vehicles is prohibited outside of the designated system.
One outcome of this planning effort was publication of a Motor Vehicle Use Map (MVUM) for each District nationwide. The maps show the designated road, trails, and areas for motorized use. Once the MVUM is published, motor vehicle use on the national forest will be allowed only on designated routes or areas displayed on the map.
The goal of the travel management process is to create a safe and sustainable motorized use system that provides recreational opportunities and appropriate access while protecting forest resources.
The Siuslaw National Forest Motor Vehicle Use Map (MVUM) displays National Forest System routes (roads and trails) and areas that are open to motorized travel. Designated motor vehicle roads, motorized trails and motorized cross country travel areas are outlined in these maps.
The Motor Vehicle Use Map displays uses allowed by vehicle class (highway-legal vehicles and off-highway vehicles), dispersed camping, and seasonal restrictions, as well as general travel rules and regulations. National Forest Service (NFS) routes not shown on the MVUM are not open to public motor vehicle travel. Routes designated for motorized use may not always be signed on the ground, but will be identified on the MVUM. It is the user's responsibility to refer to the MVUM to determine designated routes for motor vehicle use. The MVUM will be updated annually to correct mapping errors or discrepancies, and to update travel decisions.
The Motor Vehicle Use Map is a black and white map with no topographic features. It is best used in conjunction with a Forest Visitor Use Map, Ranger District Map, or other topographic map. The MVUM is free to the public and hardcopies are available at Siuslaw National Forest offices.
These maps are available here. From this webpage, you can print the sections you are interested in traveling on. [See below for how to print these map pages.]Adobe Reader or another PDF document reader is required for viewing the MVUM for each district. If you do not have a reader installed, you can download a free plugin at Adobe Reader Website.

How do I print the MVUM?
What does a MVUM show me?
Does the MVUM also show non-motorized trails?
What do you mean by vehicle class?
What are the rules for motorized dispersed camping?
Are there road and trails route marker signs on the ground?
How do I print the MVUM?
The Siuslaw National Forest MVUM can be printed on 8.5" x 11" paper using home printers. With Adobe Acrobat, you can print either the whole atlas by using the "Print All" function or use the "Pages" function to print the pages you need. The Coversheet, Purpose and Content, Seasonal and Special Vehicle Designation Table, Dispersed Camping Table; and Map Index pages must printed along with the township and range index map you are traveling to, if you are printing just certain map page. See the individual ranger district webpage for more detail.
Here areinstructions on how to print the atlas:
To FAQ
All National Forest Service roads, trails and designated areas allowing public motor vehicle use.
Motorized use includes but is not limited to highway-legal and non-highway-legal vehicles and both 2 and 4-wheel drive vehicles.
Designation details, including vehicle class, time of year, and any motorized access for the purpose of dispersed camping (camping in locations other than campgrounds).
Roads where only highway-legal vehicles are allowed due to safety considerations.
Motor vehicle access may occur on routes not shown on the MVUM for the purpose of limited administrative access by Forest Service personnel; for fire and law enforcement for emergency purposes and; by persons authorized by a written special use permit or contract from the Forest Service.
No, the Forest Visitor Map shows non-motorized routes, including mechanized (e.g., mountain bike) trails, hiking, and horse trails. Visitor Maps are available for purchase at Forest Service offices.
To FAQ
What do you mean by vehicle class?
Vehicle class refers to certain categories of motorized vehicles.The following are typical vehicle class route designations:
Roads open to highway-legal vehicles only (licensed)
Roads and trails open to all motor vehicles, including unlicensed non-highway-legal vehicles such as quads, dirt bikes, sand rails, etc.
It's important to understand that routes and areas shown open to certain vehicle classes do not mean they are necessarily maintained for or suitable for travel using those vehicles. It simply means it is legal to use them. For example, many non-key (secondary) roads may be open to all motor vehicles. This designation includes passenger cars, although it may not be prudent to drive this type of vehicle on the route due to the condition of the surface or during inclement weather. Please check with the local Ranger District Offices for more information.
Dispersed camping (camping outside developed campgrounds) with motor vehicles may occur only in those areas indicated on the MVUM. In such designated areas, motor vehicles may travel up to 150 feet off of the road to access and use established dispersed campsites.
Non-motorized dispersed camping may occur at any already established dispersed campsite unless it is posted as closed. All visitors are discouraged from creating new campsites and are encouraged to use ones that already exists.
Are there road and trail route marker signs on the ground?
Routes designated for motorized use may not always be signed. In some cases, a route marker may exist at the entrance of the road or trail with symbols indicating which classes of vehicles are allowed. Routes designated for motorized uses will be identified on the MVUM. The MVUM is an enforcement tool to ensure individuals are on the correct route. It is the responsibility of the user to determine if they are on a route designated for the motor vehicle being used.

ST. LOUIS, Mo. -- Junior Madeline Lynch-Crumrine (Sedro-Woolley, Wash./Sedro-Woolley) has been named the Missouri Valley Conference Pitcher of the Week, announced by the league office Monday afternoon.
A Louisville Slugger NFCA All-Mideast Region selection last year and two-time First-Team All-Missouri Valley Conference pick, Lynch-Crumrine is the first Bradley player to earn MVC Pitcher of the Week honors since Ashley Birdsong on May 4, 2009.
Lynch-Crumrine went 2-1 in four appearances with a complete game shutout and a 1.66 ERA in 25.1 innings of work at the season-opening Kajikawa Classic in Tempe, Ariz., over the weekend. She made all four of her appearances against teams which advanced to the 2012 NCAA Tournament, striking out 16 batters and holding opposing hitters to a .186 batting average.
Her three starts over the weekend were against squads which combined for an 11-8 NCAA Tournament record and she went 2-1 with a 1.40 ERA in those three contests. In the season opener against 21st-ranked Stanford, she came out of the bullpen to strike out five and walk one, while surrendering two earned run and five hits in 5.1 innings.
She came back the next day to pitch a complete game in Bradley's 2-1 win against 13th-ranked Arizona for BU's first win against a ranked team since the 2009 NCAA Tournament. Lynch-Crumrine struck out five and walked two, while holding the Wildcats to five hits in the win.
Saturday, she tossed the first complete game shutout of her career, blanking preseason Big Sky Conference favorite Portland State. Lynch-Crumrine scattered four singles and two walks, while striking out three and walking two against the Vikings. She capped the week Sunday, holding fourth-ranked Arizona State to four hits in a 3-0 setback. Lynch-Crumrine held the Sun Devils to two hits through the first five innings, struck out three and walked two in her only loss of the weekend.
The Bradley softball team returns to action Friday at 10 a.m. (CST), opening play at the New Mexico Lobo Classic in Albuquerque, N.M. against IPFW.

Common Checkered Skipper
There are only 2 Pyrgus species known from Maryland, the Grizzled Skipper (P. centaureae) and the Common Checkered Skipper (P. communis). I believe the butterflies in my photographs represent the latter species. The photos above and on the left are of the same individual, while the one below, photographed about a week later at the same location (end of September-beginning of October of last year), is a different individual, because the fringes of its hind wings are more complete than those of the earlier individual. The location was a highly disturbed open field near a large creek and a busy road (East-West Highway) in Riverdale, Prince George's Co., Maryland.
The range of the Common Checkered Skipper covers most of the temperate North America extending south to the mountains of northern Mexico. Apparently, the species cannot survive very cold winters. A few days ago Firefly Forest Blog had pictures of a male Common Checkered Skipper from Arizona.
In contrast, the Grizzled Skipper is a more widely distributed Holarctic species, whose range extends not only to Alaska, Labrador and the arctic Quebec, but also across Asia to northern Europe.

Honestly, I am quite fed up with the Pistons at the moment. I should get one of those shirts I remember from my youth that parodied the FedEx logo and said "FedUp with boys" but only I would then put some sort of tape with writing on it over "boys" to indicate it is, in fact, the Detroit Pistons I am quite irked by at the moment. Here they are, in the Eastern Conference, where a team doesn't even need to sniff .500 to make the playoffs. Look at the talent. Josh Smith. Brandon Jennings. Guys who have actually played well. This is definitely a team that SHOULD make the playoffs.
Instead, they have currently lost six in a row, and none of the games finished all that close. They've lost to team they need to be beating. They are currently 14-22. Tonight, they play the 76ers, who they should beat, but how can I have any trust in that to happen? Smith has been awful, and the team pretty much needs to trade Greg Monroe now so they can move J-Smoove to power forward and just hope that salvages him. Cheeks is about what I expected, which is to say not good. This team should have a better record. If it doesn't turn things around, houses will be cleared. Joe Dumars is managing generally for his job. Or at least he should be. 2004 was a decade ago, dude.
Anyway, the Pistons are about to have a very light week, which is perhaps for the best. They only play two games. One tomorrow, and one next Friday. Maybe it is for the best. They can't hurt us as much that way. Saturday they play the Phoenix Suns at home. The Suns have been the opposite of the Pistons; a pleasant surprise. However, Eric Bledsoe is now hurt, which limits them a bit. The Pistons could win this, but I think Detroit will win. Friday, they host the Jazz. Hey, at least Michigan fans can see Trey Burke. The Jazz aren't good, but they have been better since Burke got healthy. I think Detroit actually wins here. They have to win eventually. Everybody wins eventually.
The Pistons can still turn this around. They have the talent. They have the assets. Let's make it happen.

Whether on the arm of Kanye West or Wiz Khalifa, Amber Rose has been on or around enough red carpets to know how to properly leave fans wanting more. Last week she revealed a krazy key komponent in the demise of her storybook romance with West, leaving us to somehow feel a little bad for the woman who suggestively ingests marshmallow-flavored vodka during our nightly cab rides. For those keeping track, Amber's with Wiz, Kanye's got DONDA on the brain and Kim's already taken enough of a beating in the press. So why come out with this expired tabloid fodder? All the better to build anticipation for her debut single with, my dears!
Rose sat down for an interview with MTV's Sway on RapFix Live Wednesday, largely looking to pimp "Fame," yet was totally willing to expand upon what we already know. While it might seem like she's trying to get both of her men to ignite rap's version of the Trojan War, she told Sway that Wiz is not threatened by her past. "I mean Wiz knows that I've never loved a man the way I love him. He knows that, he's very secure with that. He knows that no matter what I wouldn't go back to that." Burn, Yeezy. You called her an "incredible person" during the Watch The Throne tour, and she refers to you as that? Time to write another album. But really, Rose feels she shouldn't be criticized for the decisions she's made. She's just a "bald-headed hoe" from Philly, y'all! Rather than get to important questions like the difference in consistency between marshmallow and whipped cream Smirnoff products, she opened up the tear ducts while recounting stories of crazed fans who threw things at her, and West's "reckless" talk on MBDTF. "I'm just crying because I don't deserve to be bullied like that. I'm a nice girl, I don't bother anybody. I keep my mouth shut because I don't want any trouble," she stated clearly, into a microphone. "To be bullied through music and through stuff like that, it's not fair to me. I don't deserve that." So that's what keeping one's mouth shut looks like?

Most parents know that with their kids going back to school, they're once again going to be collecting Box Top points. Schools basically put out a bounty on these things, and thus parents collect these little squares of paper and plastic Box Top symbols from such brands as Pillsbury and Kleenex packages. In exchange for these little symbols, the companies give money and/or supplies to the schools. So, millions of these things are turned in every year. To encourage participation, most schools will have contests to see which class, or grade, can collect the most. Kids get into it, parents start collecting, and friends and family are roped into helping. Thus, this program has been a success for many years now. What not everyone might know however, is that although it may be the best known of its kind, it is far from being alone.
Several other companies out there support similar give-back programs, but since they aren't always actively promoted by kids and school, like the Box Tops 4 Education program, they can often be overlooked. Sometimes people just don't notice, or they might think it's some weird promotion they wouldn't be interested in, and the codes get thrown away. When this happens, a great opportunity to give back is lost, and if you've read this column before then you also know that a great way to be green has been passed up as well.
If you think about it, being green means you renew, recycle, and reuse. With such give back programs you're basically doing all three. You reuse the packaging when you use it for a second purpose (entering the code and giving back), you renew the world around you by helping to donate to causes that help out in your community, and then you recycle the packaging once you've used the product, and entered your code. It's simple to do, and a win-win for everyone involved. The only extra thing you have to do is pay attention to the packaging of things you buy, so that you don't accidentally throw any codes away.
To help increase your awareness, and get you started on your giving back new ways, here is a list of six companies and programs that are currently running such programs.
Coke: The mycokerewards.com program allows you to collect points for most of their products. In exchange you can choose a reward for yourself, or choose to use the points to donate to one of several organizations that Coke is working with at the time. Current, and past, recipients have included the Red Cross, USO, National Forest, and local schools.
Pillsbury: Along with other brands owned by their parent company, most of their products have the Box Top symbol on it. You give these to a school, and they submit them directly. As mentioned already, most people are aware of this. The part that might not be as known is that sometimes when you think a symbol is just a picture promoting the program, it might actually be a bonus Box Top instead. Always look to see if there is an expiration date on the symbol, if there is, then it's real!
Kellogg's: In addition to many of these brands also having the Box Tops on them, there is also a code inside some of the company's cereal boxes. When you collect three of these you can input them online to get Scholastic Books. You can choose to have the books sent to you, for your families use, or you can donate them directly to one of your local schools.
Campbell's: Several of this company's soup cans, and other products have "Labels for Education" on them that can also be turned into schools. As with the Box Tops, the Labels are then submitted by the school to the company directly.
ConAgra Foods: Many of this companies frozen foods have codes on them that can be submitted via the ChildHungerEdnsHere.com site. Each code will then be used to help feed children in your area. You need to hurry for this one though, as the program is scheduled to end on 8/29/14. According to the site you should still be able to enter the codes through Sept. 30th, 2014 though.
General Mills: GM has teamed up with Feeding America to help give food to local food banks and shelters. For each code entered you can help feed anywhere from 1 to 12 meals to needy people in your community. This program is scheduled to go through Jan. 15th, 2015.
So, now that you know, you too can start giving back. Stay Green Everyone.

These days, it seems that wherever Kim Kardashian goes, the rumors and drama follow. The E! reality star recently found herself feuding with Jon Hamm after the "Mad Men" star made some negative comments about her in an interview with Elle UK. On Tuesday (March 20), Kardashian addressed the actor's comments and more during a radio interview with Ryan Seacrest.
"I just feel like, to be honest, it's all about trying to stay focused and keep everything positive," she said about wanting to move on from the Hamm story." It really takes a lot more energy and effort to be harsh than to say something nice and be positive."
But that wasn't the only issue that Kardashian said she wanted to put to rest once and for all. After appearing at Kanye West's Paris fashion show, some speculated that the pair were rekindling their rumored onetime romance , even saying these two were headed down the aisle.
"I think I'm still married," Kardashian responded, laughing off the rumor. "We've been friends for years. It's so funny, you take a picture with someone, you support them. You know, he supported me at my Dash opening in New York. We just support each other; that's what friends do."
Kardashian also revealed she's in no rush to get back into the dating game since filing for divorce from her husband of 72 days, Kris Humphries . "You know, I'm really not dating right now at all. I'm really just focusing on work. I know I always say this, but I'm just trying to get through my situation and just have fun."
For now, Kim is busy helping big sister Kourtney get ready for baby #2 , due later this spring."She's so tiny, she's so cute pregnant," Kardashian said of her sister. "I am obsessed with Mason," she added about Kourtney and her boyfriend Scott Disick's son. "I can't wait to meet the baby girl. I can only imagine how they are going to dress her. … They just make really cute babies."
And what about those rumors that Kim might be adopting a baby of her own? "No, I don't even know where that came from, but what's so crazy is the magazines can easily call and ask and we would say 'yes' or 'no,' " she told Seacrest. "But that's not true.
"I've heard so many ridiculous things and to be honest, I used to read all the magazines and watch things. I don't even look at any of that anymore. I've taken my Google alerts off my phone!"
