Boy on bike killed by drunken driver
By Kim Smith Arizona Daily Star | Posted: Saturday, February 13, 2010 12:00 am
A Pima County jury awarded the parents of a Tucson boy killed by a drunk driver $40 million Friday. City taxpayers will be responsible for a third of that, with the driver and Chuy's restaurant sharing responsibility for the rest.
Jose Rincon Jr., 14, and a friend were riding their bicycles east on East Broadway near Harrison Road around 7:20 p.m. Jan. 12, 2008, when Glenda Rumsey struck both teens with her car. Rincon died.
Although the city was found to be only one-third responsible, its more than $13 million share is the largest individual judgment ever against the city, dwarfing the $1.75 million paid to the family of Deshun Chance Glover, who was electrocuted at the Hi Corbett Field complex in Reid Park in July 2008.
Rumsey, whose blood-alcohol level was 0.249 two hours after the crash, was sentenced to 14 years in prison last year. Chuy's, which is where she had been drinking, has already settled with the family for an undisclosed amount.
A lawyer for the family argued successfully that the city was partially at fault because of the poor design of the road.
City Attorney Mike Rankin said the city will appeal. He said he was surprised both by the amount and by the city's being found 33 percent responsible.
"This is shocking," Rankin said, adding he was stunned at the amount and "the notion the city would be equally responsible as a drunk driver that was three times the legal limit."
Jose and Adriana Rincon burst into tears when the verdict was read.
After having been through both a criminal and a civil trial, nothing has changed, Adriana Rincon said. "It doesn't bring him back. Tomorrow I still have to find a way to cope."
Jose Rincon said the lawsuit was never about money.
"The main reason we're here is for vindication and to carry the ball the whole 10 yards on (Jose Jr.'s) behalf," he said.
The three-way finding of blame validated their belief there was a "perfect storm" of variables that came together and took their son's life, Jose Rincon said.
"In my heart of hearts it started with Glenda Rumsey, but that doesn't excuse irresponsible business practices nor cavalier decision-making on the implementation of well-thought-out and carefully designed building plans," he said.
Last week, the Rincons' attorney, Ronald Mercaldo, told jurors a city engineer abandoned plans to add 5 feet of asphalt to the roadway during an improvement project, creating a large offset in the lanes on either side of Vozack Lane, just east of Harrison. As a result, Rumsey ended up in the bike lane when her lane ended and she tried to merge.
Rumsey's attorney, Stefano Corradini, agreed his client and Chuy's were largely responsible for the crash, but he, too, blamed the city because of the road design. He would not comment after the verdict.
Attorney Richard Davis, who defended the city, told jurors that engineers did nothing wrong. He blamed Rumsey, saying roads can't be designed to be drunken-driver-proof.
The jury deliberated less than three hours.
Mercaldo said he was grateful to the jury but noted the judgment will never compensate the Rincons for their loss.
Jose, a straight-A student at St. Michael's Parish Day School, died hours after he took entrance exams for Salpointe Catholic High School.
The middle of the Rincons' three children, Jose Jr. was known to be kind and an exceptional musician and talented athlete.
Judge Kenneth Lee presided over the trial.

PUEBLO, Colo.—Blue Pepper spiced up J Michael's Union Avenue Pub, on May 3. They played a two hour set, downstairs dubbed "The Cavern Club".
Tom Simms is the vocalist and guitarist, Jan Davis is the bassist and vocalist, Jim Schaffer is the mandolinist, fiddler and vocalist and Kai Furuto is the banjoist, percussionist, guitarist and vocalist of Blue Pepper. Simms also plays the harmonica.
Simms introduced Blue Pepper's name to the audience, before they began the concert with "To The River". As he sang the chorus, Schaffer and Davis assisted him with backup vocals. Shortly after—he blew into a harmonica and strummed his guitar. He sang afterwards and continued to play both instruments simultaneously, to bring an end to the song.
"Gandy Dancer" brought an end to the first half of Blue Pepper's concert. Simms mentioned he had written the song for a John Henry musical for some of Schaffer's students. He went onto say what had happened to Henry many years ago continues to happen today. He supported his statement by saying how machines were taking away America's jobs.
Irving Berlin's "Russian Lullaby", The Jackson 5's "I Want You Back", "Early", "Della May", "The Day In The Life Of A Fool", Sansévérino "Mal ô Mains", "Beautiful Day", Bob Wills' "San Antonio Rose", "Estar Mejor", Neil Diamond's "Cherry, Cherry", "Nowhere To Run", Ray Charles' "Ruby", a two song medley of Glen Miller's "In The Mood" and "Boogie Woogie Bugle Boy", La Pura Sabrosura's "Juana la Cubana" and "Saturated Fat" were part of Blue Pepper's first set.
After beginning Blue Pepper's second recital with Toto Cutugno's "L'Italiano Vero"—Simms mentioned they would playing at Bluegrass At The Fair, at the end of the month. As he did so—Schaffer exchanged his mandolin for hi fiddle and Furuto traded his percussion for his banjo.
Simms mentioned Blue Pepper always ended their concerts with a Cajun tune and covered Mary Chapin Carpenter's "Down at the Twist and Shout". While they performed, he noticed people dancing and urged his band mates to extend the final instrumental.
New Grass Revival's "You Plant Your Fields", "Twisted", Mark Knopfler's "Devil Baby", The Kingston Trio's "Fast Freight", Juan Luis Guerra's "Vale La Pena", John Hiatt and Fred Koller's "Angel Eyes", Sam Bush's "Same Ol' River", "I Still Smile", "You Don't Knock", "Peace Like A River" and "Hobo's Blues" were also part of Blue Pepper's second set.

Let $I,J$ two ideals in a ring $R$. The product of ideals $IJ$ is included in $I \cap J$. For example we have equality in $\mathbb{Z}$ if generators have no common nontrival factors, in a ring $R$ when $I+J=(1)$, or when $R/IJ$ has no nonzero nilpotent elements. My question is not about equality, instead it is about strict inclusion.
Under what conditions $IJ \subsetneq I \cap J$ ?
If the question appears a little too general, then my primary aim is to see what happens under the hypothesis that $R$ is a Dedekind domain.

Stuck to the exact recipe. Delicious, easy...and even my carnivorous fiance liked it! Definitely a new favorite.
Sesame-Honey Tempeh & Quinoa Bowl
From EatingWell: September/October 2010
Here we toss tempeh with a honey-sesame sauce and serve it over quinoa and shredded carrots for a satisfying vegetarian meal. Serve with sesame breadsticks.
18 Reviews for Sesame-Honey Tempeh & Quinoa Bowl
Loved this recipe! I had a tough weightlifting workout tonight and needed a protein bomb to rebuild my muscle. I had planned to prepare according to recipe but at 930 at night the prospect of preparing quinoa didn't sound fun. Instead I put the carrot slaw and tempeh over a microwaveable dish of thai jasmine rice. Prep time was well under 30 minutes and it tasted DELICIOUS!
We love this recipe as written, but recently discovered another way to use the carrot salad. Take a slice of multi-grain bread, top with a thin layer of your favorite hummus, and then a generous serving of the carrot salad. Great open-faced sandwich option for a summer lunch.
I loved this recipe! It tasted great and was easy to make. Even if you like meat or have never tried a meatless dish this is a good one to try. One thing to note is it took me about an hour to prep and cook. Not terribly long but need to put the time aside.
My boyfriend and I made this dish tonight for dinner and it was easy to cook and very tasty & filling. Will definitely make again. Oh, and I made no substitutions except I ran out of sesame oil so I used some tahini (sesame paste) I had on hand. Seriously try this recipe guys!

Timor-Leste has capacity to build says UN officialListen /
The people of Timor-Leste have the capacity to continue to build their country, says the head of the United Nations Department of Field Support.
Ms. Ameerah Haq spoke to UN Radio as the UN Integrated Mission in Timor-Leste (UNMIT) approaches the end of its mandate on 31 December.
Ms. Haq was the head of UNMIT since 2009 until she assumed her new duties this year.
She says she saw how people were happy to resume normal lives and are feeling secure in the country that became independent from Indonesia 10 years ago.
"At another level I saw also the capacity of people in the different departments and I would see young people who had returned from training who were in the different government ministries. I saw doctors returning and going out into districts and sub-district levels. So you saw all those signs and it was that, I think that sort of solid foundations that were being built to make sure that the country had that capacity."
(Duration: 29")
The United Nations says that it will remain engaged in Timor-Leste beyond December when its peacekeeping mission withdraws from the country.

Industry analyst firm NanoMarkets has declared the release of its latest market report covering the opportunities in the silver inks/pastes market. The report titled, "Silver Inks and Pastes Markets - 2012" will provide an updated survey of the market conditions today and a forecast of the next eight years. NanoMarkets has been reporting on this sector now for more than five years and this is the latest in its ongoing series of industry analysis on silver conductors of various kinds.
The report follows recent NanoMarkets reports on Silver Powders and Flakes, Silver-Based Transparent Conductors, Nanosilver and Silver in Photovoltaics. NanoMarkets released the report in December.
In the report, it has been considered how the continually high silver prices are impacting the markets for these materials. This may indicate an opportunity for silver alternatives. The specific opportunities that continuously evolve from the conventional thick film industry and also whether the dramatic changes taking place in the solar panel and display industry will minimize the silver demand have been studied. It has also been considered if minimizing subsidies for crystalline silicon solar panels, which is a large consumer of silver pastes ultimately affects the silver pastes business and similarly will the continuous decline of the plasma display industry have a similar effect. The report also studies the future of nanosilver inks, a product that has been full of unfulfilled promise for a number of years now. The study also examines whether it is time to give up on the commercialization of these materials.
Evolving opportunities are also examined in the report. It has been studied whether the new OLED lighting and television panel will prove to be a good prospect for the use of printed silver bus lines and interconnects. Additionally, in the new solar panel policy environment, completely new types of photovoltaics are likely to emerge quite quickly. It has also been analysed if the use of silver in the electrodes will be done just like older types of PV. It has also been examined whether the sensors that are used as part of the "Internet of Things," will make significant use of printed silver.
This report studies the emerging opportunities in silver inks/pastes in the light of all these trends and provides a comprehensive guide for determining the growth opportunities and navigating the market challenges. As a part of this analysis, the strategies of the key players in the silver inks/pastes markets have been studied, and identify what Nanomarkets believes to be the trends indicating likely success (or not) at different firms. Finally, as always Nanomarkets includes eight-year market forecasts for silver inks/pastes by application and by material.
Companies addressed in the report will include Advanced Nano Products, Cima NanoTech, Creative Materials, DIC Corporation/Sun Chemical, DuPont, Ferro Electronic Materials, Harima Chemical, Henkel Electronics, Heraeus, InkTec and Methode.
NanoMarkets is a leading provider of market research and industry analysis of opportunities within advanced materials and emerging energy and electronics markets. Since the firm's founding, NanoMarkets has published over one hundred comprehensive research reports on emerging technology markets. Topics covered have included OLED displays, lighting and materials, thin-film electronics, conductive inks, transparent conductors, renewable energy, printed electronics and other promising technologies.

Skip to comments.A Few Prayers for Texas Cowboy!!
Posted on 04/08/2005 4:26:16 PM PDT by Eaker
Prayers for TexasCowboy!
TexasCowboy has been using his hip injury as an excuse to prevent his friends from shooting his new riot gun.
Well some of us offered to take a look at it for him and he decided both a proffesional and sober opinion might make more sense.
So he found a coupon and now he is going to let some old saw-bones cut on him.
Probably a better idea than letting us do it, but a few folks feelings are still hurt!
Please all say a prayer for our Cowboy that he is back in the saddle again real soon.
Hey TC,
On the stage, they say "Break a Leg" for good luck. Since you have already beat me to the punch, I'll just send you my wishes for a speedy recovery with this...."Cent'anni" In Italian, that means (may you live) 100 years! "Salute" which means "Health" and "tanti baci"...lotsa kisses.
Auntie Stanz
prayers continue
Hope TC enjoys that walk down 'memory lane' ;^) It is a good one.
ITMT; do wonder where so many of these posters have gone. . .and the patience for such posts as well; seems less of it here now. . .
Hi Aunti N....
I didn't have my hat in Chicago :( But riding "Trigger" was fun!
If I can grow up to be 1/2 the man my Uncle TC is.... all will be right with the world.
Love you!
My prayers for you TC. God is keeping you safe and healing you.
Going to bed, after midnight here on the East Coast...good night, Dinky..:))
Love you, too, Termite!!!!!
But it's a BEAUTIFUL red X!!!
And the love and prayers of uncounted FReepers. Not to mention the love of one little miracle Termite.
The second suggestion is of course only in jest, but the first is more than half serious.
Let's just say I had a copy of a key to a hidden Treasure Chest, not on FR..:))
It is so refreshing to look back on "How It Was" when we were young....an entirely different world.
Going to bed now, and will check back tomorrow in case TC wants to chat while he
recovers from flirting with the purdiest nurses ummm...rests...
This fella and his horse, Trigger, sez:
"Good night, Cowboy - we're watching over y'all tonight!" ---
Boos and hisses if things go slowly or the OR staff looks as if they did something the least bit ineptly -- Font Size "14" wild cheers reverberating throughout the uncushioned walls if things look "right" - I O Oh So H O..:))
NOW how am I going to get to sleep,
lying in bed laughing like this !!!
Shame on y'all, El Gato!!
hmmmm. . .'copy of a key to a hidden Treasure Chest, not on FR'. . .some torture to deal with here, on top of Roy's memory!
Say Good Night, Maggie.....
Likely one of the least unpleasant things you'll have to do to kick that cancer in it's butt. I remember having to do that when I had my back surgery a few years ago, in San Antonio. The worst of those tests, for shear terror, was the stress test, with the radionuclide imaging of my heart. My EKG apparently has a hitch in its getalong or something, and so they insisted on my seeing a Cardiologist and he insisted on the stress test.
A little word of advice to all here, if you ever have to have a stress test, and they give you the option of the treadmill or other exercise device or the chemical version, take the treadmill. Because of my weight, bad knee and the bad back (herniated disk) they wouldn't let me do the treadmill. The other one is quite frightening, even when they tell you what's going to happen, and the doctor tells you he was involved, as a guinea pig, in the first tests of chemical, before they had the dosage figured out. It's something like being shoved out of a perfectly good airplane, while blindfolded. Even though you're pretty sure the 'chute is going to open, you aren't THAT sure, and you have absolutely no control over the whole affair.
Do you see this, BG??
Yes! I see an outline of a box, with a small red X in the upper left hand corner! That's so cool! How'd you do that?
Well for Pete's sake. NOW it works. I see it!
I took it's Properties, put it in my address bar, hit Enter....and viewed it that way.
Then, I came back to the thread, and there it was.
I'm confused. Which, of course, doesn't take much....
But first, for Dinky Applebuns --- (wait for it!)
hahahahaha ---
ah....can you tell us what it is???
........and now, it's gone again.
I give up. Sheesh.
This better???
OOh that .. forgot to tell ya, I have a "small red x box" conforming fabricator .. ordered it special.
Night, Mr. G of Victoria..:))
Ride'm Termite!
I've never heard anyone else admit to that nor have I.
Well, yes I did tell someone once, they just looked at me like I was crazy and walked away.
Sometimes I bet he wishes I would just shut up for awhile so he can listen to others.
Gosh, I'm big enough to be two small guys, but I didn't know I was plural. :)
Los Gatos
I am SO dead come morning.........
Then you will be more than fine through the valley. Praise God!
The hitch in my EKG's gitalong or the chemical they put into your IV to make your heart race like you just finished the original Marathon?
They never told me what the hitch was, apparently nothing important, since they let me have the surgery. I'm just "different" I guess.
As to the chemical, I'll have to look that up, although there are several that they use for that, as there are several radioactive cocktails that that they also put into your veins. (That part was kind of cool, and they did it both before and after the stress test. You can read about it at Centenary Cardiology
The common chemicals used to speed up the heart without the exercise are Dobutamine, which is similar to adrenaline, and Atropine, which may be given with the dobutamine to increase your heart rate. There are others as well, and to tell the truth, I don't remember which one or ones, they used on me. I just remember it being unpleasant in the extreme, but thankfully short.
Night, Lady Jarhead, er Gyrene, er, Marine! And thank you for your service to our country in its time of need.
WHERE do you get your awesome graphics from?
Fascinating, the things yew said behind my sleeping back..:(
Yer wurdz hurt,
man galz... *LadyX pauses for a very quiet sob..* ..
and to my mind comes part of an old song:
"Please don't talk about me when I'm gone,
Oh, honey,
Though our friendship ceases from now on,
And listen,
If you can't say anything that's nice,
It's better not to talk at all,
Is my advice,"
Speaking of advice prompted the memory of an old mysterious vegetable compound, its ads bringing blushs to young gurlz and wimmin of yesteryear -- perhaps you two would benefit from use of it, 'stead of geritol??
The Famous Mrs. Pinkham's Cure:
Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound
You two, too, could look like her!!
Two too? tutu?? --
'kay -- yew two could look like this!!
Come to think of it,
Sometimes laughter *is* the best medicine..:))
Good Morning Lady X!
You go girl,tell 'em what is what!
Good Morning TC!
My prayers are still with you!
C'mon now, Man...are yew some kinda Yankee dude??
In Southern Speak, y'all can mean "all of y'uns" - or "all of JUST yew"..:))
Be more considerate of the fact this thread is for a Gen-u-whine TEXAN!!
Go get 'em Big Guy!
Google for night shift. G of B will take over the night shift tonight? I'm going to be outa town and computerless. Annual Conference. Blech...
"I've learned a lot. Maybe someday God will put me in a situation where I can use that knowledge to help someone else."
Listen up, Cowboy. You're teaching all of us GOBS of good stuff every single day. You've set the high mark for how to be a cool, calm and courageous patient. And, I thank you. BIG TIME!
Little secret. I mentally took you along with me for an anteriogram/surgery number I had done a few weeks ago. I figured you'd weather it like a champ, so I did my best to emulate you.
Whole business was 100% successful, practically pain-free, and amazing. My surgeon used nine (9) computer screens to observe his progress. Kind of like being operated on by NORAD, but hey, it worked!
Hang in there, kiddo. Monday's practically around the corner. Prayers and love continue. You can bet on it.

The turning of the seasons always seems to bring a sense of magic. The blooming of flowers and trees in the springtime carrying the sense of rejuvenation and new beginnings, or the turning of the leaves and the blustery winds of fall that encourage curling up in warm blankets with hot cups of tea. Whatever the time of year, it is human nature to enjoy the change and take pleasure in the bittersweet feelings it produces.
Set in a fictional Washington town, When Autumn Leaves, by Amy S. Foster, addresses those feelings of regret and excitement people often face during particularly life-altering circumstances. Avening is recognized by its residents as being an unusual place to live. Oftentimes, the people witness or find themselves participating in strange and magical occurances, yet are never especially surprised. Perhaps it is because the town has mysteriously beckoned each resident to it like a siren, choosing only those with exceptional, often untapped, abilities. Not only does the town itself possess a hidden quality, but it appears to be the home of a mysterious spiritual group known as the Jaen. Autumn, the High Sister, learns her job is finished in Avening and now she must find her replacement. Though unhappy about the change, she knows it is necessary for her to move on.
When Autumn Leaves is a highly thought-provoking novel reminding readers that magic is everywhere. Though not an outwardly pagan group, the Jaen aren't represented as witches or mystics. They are merely aides to the human race. All of the sisters have magical qualities, but they are used to help the people of Avening, and the world, reach their full potential. Be that realizing their own special abilities or merely helping them through difficult situations in their lives. Although Foster never fully reveals exactly who the Jaen are or how they came to be and she blatantly tells the reader she has no intention of ever answering those questions, there is not a sense of unfinished business. The reader can easily turn the last page of the novel with a sense of fulfillment knowing that sometimes there just aren't any answers to some of life's questions and maybe you just need a little faith to embrace the changes.

Oct. 5, 2012
DEKALB, Ill. - The Northern Illinois University men's golf team will compete in DePaul's John Dallio Memorial Saturday, Oct. 6 and Sunday, Oct. 7 at Ruffled Feathers Golf Club in Lemont, Ill.Joining NIU and DePaul at Ruffled Feathers will be a contingent of programs from the area. The field includes Chicago State, Columbia, Eastern Illinois, Evansville, UW-Green Bay, IUPUI, Loyola-Chicago, Marquette, Northern Iowa, Oakland, SIUE, Valparaiso, and Western Illinois. "It was nice to have the time off last week for the Ryder Cup and to get our focus and attention back on the details of playing team golf," said NIU head coach Tom Porten. "We are playing a golf course that we don't know, we hear that it is tight and has lots of water. The conditions are supposed to be cold and windy so that is perfect Huskie golf weather for us to get out of our funk and start playing championship-caliber golf." Veterans Griffin Bauman (Crystal Lake, Ill./Central) and Nick Schiavi (Barrington, Ill./Barrington) will again play from the top two positions in NIU's lineup. Bauman, the team's leader with a 75.3 scoring average over the team's first three tournaments, is coming off a tie for 12th at the D.A. Weibring Intercollegiate. The finish was his highest since an 11th-place showing at the FAU Spring Break Championships in March. Sophomore Nick Schiavi enters this event after a tie for 28th at the D.A. Weibring Intercollegiate, good for the second-best finish on the team behind Bauman. The Barrington native has been among NIU's top two finishers in each event this season, and boasts a 76.0 scoring average. Senior Matt Gorman (Waunakee, Wis./Waunakee) will be making his season debut at Ruffled Feathers. For Gorman, it will be his first event since the FAU Spring Break Championships in March. Rounding out NIU's lineup will be Kurtis Luedtke (Aurora, Ill./West) and Shawn Foley (Pewaukee, Wis./Waukesha North). Luedtke is making his third start after consecutive ties for 56th this year. Foley will be looking to top his tie for 46th he earned at the Northern Intercollegiate.The Huskies will be challenging Ruffled Feathers Golf Club, one of the premier courses in Chicagoland. The par 72 track will play to 6,898 yards for this tournament. The course rating checks in at 73.3, making it a formidable foe for NIU. Teams will play 36 holes Saturday, then a final 18 on Sunday. The forecast is calling for chilling temperatures for each morning, which may result in frost delays. Live scoring for this event will be available on GolfStat.com.

ABOUT ARIZONA: For the third year in a row, the Wildcats entered the season nationally ranked in the Associated Press poll. Arizona is ranked 25th in the AP poll again this week, after debuting at that spot in the preseason poll last week. The Cats were ranked 24th in the USA Today/ESPN Coaches' Preseason poll released on Nov. 9.
Arizona played a pair of exhibition games earlier in November to get ready for the new season. On Nov. 5, the Cats pounded the SBC Prerov Czech club, 88-52. The UA did not fare as well against the New Zealand National Team on Nov. 11, as the very sluggish Wildcats fell, 70-62.
The Cats are coming off a year which saw them go 18-11 overall and 12-6 in Pac-10 play, finishing fourth. The UA made its third straight appearance in the NCAA tournament, despite being a very young team.
Arizona returns nine letterwinners, including all five starters, from the 1999 team. The Cats will also welcome the return of senior guard Monika Crank, who was redshirted last year after an ACL tear.
ABOUT OKLAHOMA: The Sooners return seven letterwinners and all five starters from a 1999 team that garnered a 15-14 overall mark and went 8-8 to tie for eighth in the Big 12. Oklahoma did well in its preseason exhibitions, downing Basketball Travelers (91-52) on Nov. 8 and Lithuania Arvi Vernitas (83-69) on Nov. 13.
A three-time All-Big 12 selection, senior forward Phylesha Whaley is the Sooners' top returning player, after posting team-best averages of 19.6 points and 7.5 rebounds per game last season. Sophomore guard LaNeishea Caufield comes off a year which saw her average 15.8 ppg, 5.3 rpg and 2.6 steals per game. Another sophomore guard, Stacey Dales registered 11.9 ppg, 6.9 rpg and 5.2 assists per game.
Oklahoma head coach Sherri Coale (Oklahoma Christian, 1987) has a 28-55 record in three years at the helm of the Sooner program.
ABOUT TENNESSEE TECH: The 1999 season saw Tennessee Tech garner a 21-9 overall mark and the Ohio Valley Conference championship with a 14-4 league record. The Golden Eaglettes, who return eight letterwinners and four starters, won their only preseason exhibition game, 77-56, over EOS Malbas Sweden on Nov. 8.
With averages of 14.6 points and 5.1 rebounds per game last season, senior center Diane Seng is the Golden Eaglettes' top returnee. Fellow center Janet Holt, a sophomore, averaged 13.2 ppg and was the team-leading rebounder at 6.1 per game.
Head coach Bill Worrell (Tennessee Tech, 1968) owns a 264-122 mark in his 13th year at reins of his alma mater's program.
ABOUT HAWAI'I: Coming off a year in which they recorded a 17-10 overall mark and went 9-5 in the Western Athletic Conference Pacifice Division, the Rainbow Wahine return 10 letterwinners, including four starters. The `Bows did not play any preseason exhibition games.
With averages of 20.5 points and 7.6 rebounds per game, senior wing Raylene Howard lead Hawai'i in both categories last year. Senior forward Kylie Galloway returns for the Rainbow Wahine after sitting out last year with an ankle injury. She posted 18.4 ppg and 6.0 rpg during the 1997-98 season.
Wahine head coach Vince Goo (Southern Oregon, 1969) is 241-107 in 12 years at Hawai'i.
THE SERIES: The meetings with Oklahoma and Tennesse Tech are firsts for UA women's basketball.
Hawai'i holds the 2-0 lead in the series with Arizona. The Rainbow Wahine took the last meeting with the Cats, 67-66, on Nov. 23, 1990 in Honolulu.
THE LAST TIME: Arizona was last in Honolulu for the Wahine Classic on Nov. 25-27, 1994. While there, the Cats lost to then-15th-ranked Florida (94-76) and then-eighth-ranked Virginia (60-56) but were able to pull out a victory over New Mexico (77-58) on the final day of the tourney.
ARIZONA'S LAST TIME OUT: On Nov. 11, the Wildcats played their final preseason exhibition game, losing to the New Zealand National Team, 70-62.
The Cats came out flat right from the tip and never fully regained their composure. Neither team led by more than six points through the first half, and Arizona took a 31-29 advantage into the lockerroom at the break.
Arizona managed to stretch that to an 11-point (47-36) lead at 12:23 in the second half, then the New Zealanders rallied to end the game on a 34-15 run that secured them the victory.
The Cats were plagued by turnovers (34) and dismal free throw shooting (12-for-23) throughout the game, although they did shoot a solid 53.3 percent (24-45) from the floor for the contest.
Sophomore forward Elizabeth Pickney hit 7-of-9 from the field en route to a game-high-tying 17 points. Senior forward Tatum Brown was the only other Cat in double digits, scoring 13 points while grabbing five rebounds.
Sophomore center LaKeisha Taylor came off the bench to pull down a team-high six rebounds while adding seven points. Senior guard Felecity Willis racked up game-highs of 10 assists and four steals.
GOOD BEGINNINGS: With Joan Bonvicini at the program's helm, the Wildcats have won four straight season openers and a total of six in the eight years she has been at the UA.
In the 27 years of Arizona women's basketball, the Wildcats have won 14 season openers. The UA went on to post winning records in eight of those 14 seasons.
WHO'S BACK FOR ARIZONA: Technically, including Monika Crank, the Wildcats have 10 returnees on this year's squad. The 2000 roster is senior-laden, featuring five, and also sports one junior, five sophomores and two freshmen.
Senior forward Angela Lackey will undoubtedly be looking to reprise her role as the UA's leading scorer, after she led the Cats with 14.4 points per game last year. Fellow senior Felecity Willis, a guard, was the team's second-leading scorer (12.1 ppg) and was one of the Pac-10's assists leaders at 5.5 per game. Both Lackey and Willis were first team All-Pac-10 honorees.
Yet another senior, guard Lisa Griffith was selected honorable mention All-Pac-10 after averaging 9.7 points and 4.8 assists per game. Fellow senior Tatum Brown played in 13 contests, averaging 9.5 ppg and 5.2 rpg.
The final senior is a much-welcomed returnee. Guard Monika Crank had averages of 6.5 points and 3.3 assists per game for the 1998 squad. She is well-known not only for accuracy from three-point range, but also for her defensive prowess.
Guard Reshea Bristol is the only junior on this season's roster. She averaged 11.1 points, 4.4 rebounds and 2.7 steals per game.
A group of five sophomores is highlighted by forward Elizabeth Pickney, the team's leading rebounder (5.8 rpg) and shot-blocker (1.2 bpg) last year. Guard Julie Brase was a valuable back-court sub while posting 6.8 ppg and 2.5 rpg.
Fellow sophomores LaKeisha Taylor and Michelle Mitchell should push for more time along the front line this year.
WHO'S NEW FOR ARIZONA: Sophomore guard Tysell Bozeman will finally see action this season after sitting out last year as a partial qualifier. The 1998 Los Angeles Times Player of the Year, Bozeman is expected to give the Cats even more depth in the backcourt.
Another freshman, the 6-2 Krista Warren is the tallest guard on this year's roster. Named a BCI first team All-American last year, Warren was a three-time Northern California Player of the Year.
The final freshman guard, Jamie Sturdivant made the squad as a walk-on. She hails from Simi Valley (Calif.) High School, where she was named to the Los Angeles Times all-county team last season.
LOOKING AHEAD: The Wildcats return to their own court on Thanksgiving weekend to open a six-game home stand. The Cats will renew the oldest series in UA women's basketball history when they face New Mexico on Saturday, Nov. 27, at 7 p.m. in the McKale Center.

HEAD COACH JOAN BONVICINI: In her eight years at the helm of the University of Arizona's women's basketball program, head coach Joan Bonvicini has collected an unparalleled list of accomplishments, both for the university and for her career.
Now facing her ninth year at the UA with a career win total of 459, Bonvicini is still steering the Wildcat program at full steam ahead. In a season that saw her playing five freshmen on a regular basis, Bonvicini guided the 1999 Cats to yet another NCAA tournament appearance, its third in as many years.
In her eight years with the Cats, Bonvicini has posted a 134-98 (.578) mark.
Prior to taking over at the UA, Bonvicini led Long Beach State to 10 consecutive NCAA appearances, including two trips to the Final Four. She registered a 325-71 mark in 12 seasons with the 49ers.
Bonvicini is 459-169 (.731) in 20 years as a collegiate head coach. She also has a 22-13 record in NCAA tournament play and has never lost a first-round game in 13 appearances.
RACKING UP THE WINS: Joan Bonvicini needs only 25 more victories at the UA to collect as many wins as the six previous Wildcat coaches combined.
THE REST OF THE STAFF: Awarded the title of associate head coach during the summer of 1998, Denise Dove Ianello (Northern Illinois, 1991) begins her eighth year at the UA, functioning as both the team's recruiting coordinator and the perimeter coach. Second-year assistant coach Karen Caires (Cal State Northridge, 1990) works with the perimeter players, assists with scouting and recruiting and directs the Joan Bonvicini Hoop Camp. In his first year at the UA, assistant coach Curtis Loyd (Southern Utah, 1994) is involved primarily with scouting and with coaching the post players.
WEDDING BELLS AND BASKETBALLS... AND FOOTBALLS: Associate head coach Denise Dove married UA football recruiting coordinator/wide receivers coach Rob Ianello on July 3 this past summer.
GREAT EXPECTATIONS: For the third year in a row, the Wildcats earned a preseason national ranking. The Cats were ranked 25th in the Associated Press Preseason Top 25, and they were 24th in the USA Today/ESPN Coaches' Preseason Top 25.
The Wildcats were ranked among the top 25 teams in five different "unofficial" preseason polls this fall. The UA's highest ranking in these polls was 13th by Women's Basketball magazine and the lowest was 22nd by both Street & Smith's and the Basketball News Report.
Senior forward Angela Lackey earned preseason third team All-America honors from Lindy's College Basketball and honorable mention All-America laurels from Street & Smith's College Basketball.
ARIZONA ON THE TUBE: The Wildcats are currently scheduled to make television appearances for five different games...
Sun. Nov. 21 at Hawai'i KFVE-TV Honolulu, 3 p.m. HST Tues. Dec. 21 at Kansas Sunflower Cablevision*, 7:05 p.m. CST Sat. Jan. 22 USC Fox Sports Net, 2 p.m. Sun. Jan. 30 Arizona State Fox Sports net, 2 p.m. Sat. Feb. 19 at UCLA Fox Sports Net, 1 p.m. PST (* broadcast in Lawrence, Kan., area on taped-delay basis)
DUALLY SUCCESSFUL: Ten schools have both their men's and women's basketball teams ranked among the AP Top 25 this week. They are Arizona, Auburn, North Carolina, Connecticut, Kansas, UCLA, Illinois, Duke, Tennessee and Purdue.
A STREAK "ON THE LINE": Senior forward Angela Lackey brings a streak of 17 consecutive free throws made into the 1999-2000 season.
DID YOU KNOW: Since Joan Bonvicini took over the Arizona program in 1991, the Wildcats have gone 72-72 against Pac-10 teams, although they have a 38-16 league mark over the last three seasons combined.
RECORD WATCH: Last season, guard Lisa Griffith surpassed former Stanford player Vanessa Nygaard to become the Pac-10 career leader in three-pointers made, with 212. Griffith became Arizona's all-time leader in three-pointers made on Feb. 6, 1999. She is also the UA leader in career three-pointers attempted, with 573.
Griffith is #14 on the UA's top-20 all-time leading scorers' list. With 915 career points, she needs only 10 more points to move into the #13 spot.
Griffith is also on the career top-10 list for games started, coming in at #4 with 86 career starts. She stands at sixth on the career assists list, with 349.
Felecity Willis is in eighth in career three-pointers attempted (141) and in 3FG made (38). She is holding down fifth place on the all-time assists chart, with her 372 career dishes putting her 47 out of fourth place.
STRONG SCHEDULE: There are a lot of quality teams which stand between the Wildcats and a fourth straight NCAA appearance in 2000. This year's slate features eight teams which earned NCAA berths last season, including two schools -- UCLA and Colorado State -- that played one another in the Sweet Sixteen.
Pac-10 foe UCLA is ranked fourth in this week's AP poll, while UC Santa Barbara is 15th, Oregon is 17th and Kansas is 19th. Stanford, Colorado State and New Mexico each received votes for ranking this week.
In the USA Today/ESPN Preseason Coaches' poll, UCLA was No. 4, UC Santa Barbara was No. 13, Oregon was No. 16 and Kansas was No. 20. Stanford, Colorado State, Louisville, Hawai'i, Oklahoma, Arizona State and USC all received votes.
ON LOCATION: Arizona posted an 11-3 mark at home, was 5-8 on the road and notched a 2-0 record in neutral contests last year.
SEASON TICKETS: Arizona women's basketball season tickets are on sale now. The tickets are $65 each for the general public or $55 for senior citizens, youth and UA faculty and staff. For more information, call the UA Athletic Ticket Office at (520) 621-2287.
CAT SCRATCHES: Under head coach Joan Bonvicini, the Cats have gone 23-16 in games settled by five points or less, including a 7-4 mark in games settled by one or two points... The Arizona women's basketball program has a 293-389 (.430) all-time record, however it is 97-53 (.647) from 1994 to present... Joan Bonvicini has a 162-86 career record against Pac-10 teams... Over the last eight seasons, Bonvicini's Arizona teams have won 46 games by spreads of 20 points or more.
CAN'T GET RID OF US: The Wildcats are not ones to take tournament competition of any kind lightly - no "one-and-out" here. The Wildcats have made it past the first round of play in each of the last 11 straight tournaments (including post-season) in which they have competed.
In their last six regular-season tourneys, the Cats have made it to the championship game in each, and in each of their four straight post-season appearances, the Wildcats have gotten past the first round of play.
The UA will have quite a few opportunities during the regular season this year to test its tournament mettle. The Cats play in three tournaments this season.
80 IS THE MAGIC NUMBER: Seems that the 80-point mark almost always means adding another to the "win" column for the Wildcats. In the 27-year history of Arizona women's basketball, the Cats have posted a 109-15 record when scoring 80 points or more in a game. Under Joan Bonvicini, the Wildcats have gone 69-8 when topping that 80-point plateau.
THERE'S NO PLACE LIKE HOME: During Joan Bonvicini's tenure at Arizona, the Wildcats have posted an 80-38 mark in McKale Center, including a 49-10 record over the last four seasons combined. Arizona has a record of 147-146 on its home court since the 1976-77 season.
THE CATS AND THE NCAA TOURNEY: Arizona made its first-ever NCAA tournament appearance in 1997, receiving a No. 7 seed in the West Region. The Cats defeated 25th-ranked Western Kentucky in the first round, then went on to scare host and sixth-ranked Georgia (80-74) in the second game.
The 1998 season saw the Cats enter the tournament as the No. 3 seed in the East Region. The UA swept through the first two games, picking up wins over Santa Clara and Virginia, and made it into the Sweet Sixteen, only to fall to then-third-ranked Connecticut.
Last year, the Cats earned a #6 seed in the Midwest Region, defeating 11th-seeded Florida, 87-84, in overtime to nab yet another first-round win. Arizona fell to #3 seed and ninth-ranked Rutgers, 90-47, in the second round of the tourney.
Arizona has been placed in a different region in each of its three years of NCAA tournament competition.
SOON-TO-BE WILDCATS: On the first day of the early signing period (Nov. 10), Arizona inked a trio of high school recruits from the state of California. The signees were 5-10 guard Candice Allen (Ontario, CA/Ayala HS), 5-7 guard Aimee Grzyb (San Jose, CA/Archbishop Mitty HS) and 6-3 forward Veranda James (Pomona, CA/Ganesha HS). Arizona still has three more scholarships to give for the 2000-2001 season.
1998-99 IN REVIEW: Despite losing the squad's only two seniors before the season ever started, the very young 1998-99 Wildcats held their own and came up with an 18-11 overall record. After being picked by both the coaches and the media to finish in fifth place, the UA finished fourth in the Pac-10 with a 12-6 mark.
The Cats faced a rough non-conference schedule that featured three teams which spent most of the season among the top four in the national rankings. Arizona went 5-4 against those non-conference opponents, with quality losses to Purdue, Louisiana Tech and Colorado State and a big road win over UC Santa Barbara.
That tough early slate prepared the Cats for a season of Pac-10 play which showed more parity than it has in years. After getting off to a rocky 1-3 start in league play, the Cats rebounded to finish the season 11-3, with wins over Pac-10 co-champion Oregon and over perennial power Stanford.
The Wildcats then received their third consecutive berth in the NCAA Tournament, earning a #6 seed in the Midwest Region. The Cats travelled to Piscataway, N.J., for the first- and second-round games, hosted by #3 seed and ninth-ranked Rutgers.
Arizona faced NCAA tourney veteran Florida in the first round of play and defeated the Gators, 87-84, in overtime to move on to the second round for the third straight year. The Cats then took on host Rutgers, only to end the season on a sour note, falling to the Scarlet Knights, 90-47.
For the season, Arizona had its most balanced offense in five years, with four players averaging in double digits in scoring, and ended its season by winning 12 of its final 16 contests. The Cats broke or tied 13 school records this year, including setting new marks in single season free throws made (520) and blocked shots (88).
The Wildcats finished the year as the Pac-10 leader in free throw percentage (.721) and in assist/turnover ratio (0.86). The Cats were second in offense (74.2 ppg), assists (16.59 apg) and turnover margin (+3.79 tpg).
ON THE INDIVIDUAL FRONT IN `99: With 14.4 points per game, forward Angela Lackey led four Wildcats averaging in double digits in scoring. Guard Felecity Willis came in second with her 12.1 ppg scoring average, followed closely by forward Elizabeth Pickney at 11.4 ppg. Pickney was the team's top rebounder with 5.8 per game, while Willis was the team's assists leader, averaging 5.5 apg.
Lackey was second in rebounding with 5.4 rpg, and guard Reshea Bristol posted 11.4 points and 4.4 rebounds per game, followed by guard Lisa Griffith with 9.7 points and 4.8 assists per game.
Several Wildcats finished the year among the Pac-10 statistical leaders. Bristol was third in the Pac-10 in steals (2.71 spg), and Willis was third in both assists (5.52 apg) and in field goal percentage (.546). Lackey was fifth in scoring (14.4 ppg), Pickney was fifth in blocked shots (1.21 bpg), and Griffith was fifth in assists (4.79 apg).
Arizona head coach Joan Bonvicini made her 13th career trip to the NCAA tournament. She has a 22-13 career record in NCAA play and has never lost an NCAA first-round game. Bonvicini is 134-98 in her eighth year at the helm of Arizona's program and holds a 459-169 mark in 20 years as a head coach.

Marc Clark unisex bow tie
A recent trend that has popped up and that has also been made quite popular by the show 'Gossip Girl' is unisex bow ties. Now whether they are worn in the classic bow tie fashion or as necklace bow ties, this is a new trend that is catching on quickly.
Timo Weiland and Alan Eckstein are two designers who are behind this new trend and debuted a unisex collection of bow ties in their 2009 Fall collection. Now their unisex bow ties can be found in Barneys and Takashimaya.
I love the idea of something new and creative and thought this trend was something that is fresh, unique, and totally funky. So let me know what you think of this new, unique trend. Is unisex bow ties a do or a don't for this spring/summer season?

Dr. Thomas Haas' Blog Archive – December 2006
Tags: plastic surgery, breast augmentation, liposuction, tummy tuck, facelift, eyelids, sagging skin, cosmetic surgery, saddle bags, turkey gobbler neck,
I was talking to a patient the other day, and I hear this frequently, something like..."ya know, doc, this plastic surgery can sure become addicting". By that she meant that once you get some cosmetic surgery, it sure makes you want to have some more.
I know what she meant, but I told her 'addicting' is the wrong word. First of all, it has such a negative meaning. Secondly, once patients realize how much better they look, how much their self-esteem is improved, and how much 'happier' they are with their new look, they then go on to another procedure. Now this can take some time...just this week, I saw patients I hadn't seen in 3-4 years, and are now ready for another procedure. Patients may start with a breast augmentation, go away for a few years, say have some children, then come back for a tummy tuck or lipo...and send their mother in for a facelift or eyelids. I really develop a deep friendship/relationship/whatever with these patients...we get to know each other quite well and it is one of the best parts of my job.
The other problem I had with the use of the 'addicting' word, was that I think the general public just does not realize they don't have to live with breasts they don't like, or a large spare tire or saddle bags, or sagging abdominal skin, a turkey gobbler neck, etc. When I show them our before/after books in the office, it's obvious that anyone would choose the after if they could.
Anyway, hope everyone has a safe and happy New Year's Eve. Remember, at least one large glass of water between shots of Jaegermeister!

Saw a patient today that I did a breast augmentation on last week. She's now 8 days after surgery and on cloud-nine.
She has the typical story of wanting to do this forever and finally the time was right. Of course, cosmetic surgery, like all surgery, has risks and that is part of our consultation. She opted for the recently-released silicone implants and they already look and feel great. She's ready to go bikini and lingerie shopping today!
Patients like this are a true joy and one of the biggest satisfactions I get out of being a plastic surgeon. It put a smile on my face and the entire staff to see this young lady's happiness.
So to all you out there...2007 is right around the corner. Remember, whether it's a breast augmentation, liposuction, facelift, tummy tuck, whatever...you have to plan ahead for your work and family schedule. Spring and summer are closer than we think.

Tags: cosmetic surgery, belt lipectomy, breast augmentation, liposuction, facelift, tummy tuck, on-q pain pumps,
Yesterday I did a belt lipectomy on a gentleman who had lost over 100lbs. A 'belt lipectomy' is removal circumferentially (completely around the waist...like a belt) of excess skin and fat hanging like an apron. This is cosmetic surgery, like all the breast augmentations, liposuctions, tummy tucks, facelifts, etc that we do. The piece of skin and fat was about 4-10" wide x 44" long and 2" thick. It weighed about 10lbs...patients are always disappointed to hear how much that piece weighs, but it makes a huge difference in how they look in clothes, etc...not having to tuck in some apron of skin, etc.
We started the surgery with him on his stomach, removing the back portion first, then flipped him over while still under anesthesia, and finished the front. Finally, I removed a large 'turkey gobbler' portion of neck skin to give him a jaw-line.
Saw him this morning and he looks great. He's got two of those on-q pain pumps which help tremendously with soreness, along with a few drainage tubes for a few days. We did this operation in the hospital instead of our JCAHO-certified in-office surgery suite because of the length of the procedure....took about 4 1/2 hrs.
He's not out-of-the-woods yet but it's always good to be doing well the morning after.

Tags: cosmetic surgery, breast augmentation, liposuction, facelift, tummy tuck, on-q pain pumps, financing,
A recent cosmetic surgery patient survey showed that there are two main reasons holding people back from having these procedures: anxiety about post-op pain, and affording the cost.
First, about the pain. There is definitely some discomfort with every surgical procedure, be it breast augmentation, liposuction, facelift, tummy tuck, whatever. However, we use the new On-q pain catheters...these act like a 'soaker-hose' of Novacaine type medicine into the surgical area. The use of these pumps decreases the soreness tremendously and cuts way down on how sore people are and how much pain medicine they need. The usual reaction we hear is that our patients expected the soreness to be way worse than it actually was. And they all agree the soreness was worth it.
Cost - most of our patients finance these procedures. We work with three finance companies, and a typical cost of a $5000 procedure (breast augmentation) is about $111/month on a 60 month loan...of course this rate will depend on your credit, etc. Finance companies - www.mlendfinancial.com, www.carecredit.com, www.surgeryloans.com.

We occasionally get calls for gift certificates for cosmetic surgery....husbands/boyfriends want to surprise their significant other with a breast augmentation, liposuction, facelift, etc. As you can imagine, the giver better have a good idea this is something the give wants. Could have a real downside.
More common are gift certificates for things like skin treatments, microdermabrasion, Botox, Restylane...procedures that are not as invasive as surgery. We can give a lot of improvement with these methods, but not as much as a surgical procedure.
Of course we do all our surgery here at IMAAGE in our JCAHO-accredited in-office surgery suite. It's a major plus for our patients.

Everyone has seen someone whose nose is crying out for a rhinoplasty...or 'nose job'. As a cosmetic surgeon, it takes a lot of will power on my part sometimes to keep my mouth shut.
Usually when I ask the patient where they got that nose, immediately they respond 'my grandmother', 'my mother's side of the family', etc...they always know which genetic line produced it.
We routinely do nose jobs in our JCAHO-accredited in-office surgery suite. Lately, we have done quite a few of these in combination with breast augmentations, liposuctions, facelift...any cosmetic surgery.
Patients can be understandably squeamish about the breaking of the nose bones, but of course they do not feel it. Even though it is common to have bruising and swelling and 'black eyes' after a nose job, it is not very sore afterward...most patients only take a few pain pills.
It is always very exciting to remove the nose splint, or cast, a few days post-op and watch the patients reaction to their new look. I usually get a big hug of thanks. And I have to ask them, what took you so long to get this done?

Tags: cosmetic surgery, breast augmentation, breast lift, liposuction, tummy tuck, facelift, JCAHO, in-office surgery, financing,
Most of the new patients I saw this week are interested in some combination of cosmetic surgery procedures. Over the years we've had just about every different cosmetic surgery combination you can think of.
An unusual one from a few weeks ago was a charming lady who wanted a face lift and breast augmentation. She looks great!
A more usual mix is abdominal work, such as liposuction or a tummy tuck, along with some breast work, like a breast lift and/or augmentation. This is a very common procedure (think of the effects of a few pregnancies) and I love it. You can really see the improvement as we're changing the shape and size and proportion of these two areas.
Of course we do all of this regularly in our JCAHO-accredited in-office surgery suite. Generally these procedures take about 2-4 hours, and you go home afterward. I think people recover better at home...a hospital is a great place to go when you're sick, but not for these procedures. We use a lot of the new on-q pain pumps which eliminate nearly all of the discomfort.
Doing procedures together is less expensive than separately, as there are certain fixed costs that occur with each individual procedure. The patient also then has only one recovery period. We can also help you with any financing concerns.
There are limits to what I recommend as far as how many procedures to do together. As we have seen with a lot of our large weight-loss patients, sometimes it is better to do these procedures in stages....breasts and tummy first, then go to arms, then neck/face...of course the patient and I decide that together.

Women's Basketball suffers 74-46 loss at Wichita State
The Southern Illinois women's basketball team suffered its worst defeat of the season with a 74-46 loss to Wichita State Friday night at Koch Arena.
Saluki All Access (live audio/video)
Saluki Women's Basketball Twitter
Southern Illinois Salukis (4-12, 1-4 MVC)
Interim Coach: Adrianne Harlow, First Year (0-0 overall, 0-0 at SIU)
Wichita State Shockers (11-6, 5-0 MVC)
Head Coach: Jody Adams, Fifth Year (103-75 overall, 79-67 at WSU)
Southern leads its all-time series against Wichita State 35-27, although the Shockers have won the last five in the series. WSU enters Friday's matchup atop the Missouri Valley Conference standings at 5-0 in league play after knocking off preseason favorite Creighton Saturday and Drake Monday in Wichita, Kan. The Shockers boast the second-best scoring defense in the league, allowing just 52.2 points per game as well as the MVC's top field goal percentage defense at .280. WSU also has the MVC's best turnover margin at +3.59 per game and the Shockers hold the league's best field goal percentage at .424. WSU is led by senior guard Jessica Diamond, who averages a team-best 13.8 points per game to go along with 2.6 assists per game. Sophomore Alex Harden is second on the team in scoring at 8.5 points per game and leads the Shockers with an average of 3.3 assists per game. WSU really balances its production with nine players averaging four or more points per game and seven players averaging at least three rebounds per game.
Sophomore guard Cartaesha Macklin leads SIU and ranks seventh in the MVC with an average of 14.1 points per game while freshman guard Rishonda Napier is second on the team at 10.3 points per game. Freshman center Dyana Pierre ranks second in the MVC in rebounding and blocks at 8.5 rebounds and 1.3 blocks per game. Macklin leads the Salukis and ranks third in the Valley with an average of 3.9 assists per game.
Missy Tiber announced Monday her resignation as SIU's head women's basketball coach. Tiber ends her tenure at Southern with a 19-86 record (.181) with a 9-50 mark in MVC play (.153) in three and-a-half seasons. Assistant coach Adrianne Harlow will serve as the Salukis' interim coach for the remainder of the 2012-13 season.
SIU suffered the second-worst MVC loss in program history with a 89-41 drubbing Saturday at Illinois State. Azia Washington had nine points to lead SIU while Rishonda Napier added eight. Candace Sykes led five Redbirds in double-figures scoring with 19 points. The Salukis shot a season-low 25.4 percent from the floor on 17-for-67 shooting. ISU held SIU's leading scorer, Cartaesha Macklin, to a career-low two points.
Just over halfway through her sophomore season, guard Cartaesha Macklin already sits ninth in SIU history for career free throws made with 233 and she is just three shy of entering the top 10 in school history for free throw attempts at 315. Macklin has scored roughly a third of her 720 career points thus far from the free throw line. Macklin broke the SIU single season record for free throws made and attempted last season after going 168 for 217 from the line.

Well the ole' Grand Canyon is actually just a baby. Before now it was generally believed to have formed 70 million years ago. However, a new study has concluded that it's closer to 6 million years old. This according to a new study published in the journal Nature Geoscience.
Does anyone remember the Brady Bunch episode where they went to the Grand Canyon? Back then no one seemed to really care about how old anything was. Just that it was a nutty and fun place.
I think a few of the Brady's had blue eyes which means they shared a common ancestor about 7000 years ago. Before now it was believed that blue eyes and light skin developed at the same time. Well a new unearthing of DNA found in the remains of a dude who lived in the Cantabrian Mountains in Spain about 7000 years ago shows that people had blue eyes but dark skin.
The DNA study was performed by the Institute of Evolutionary Biology in Barcelona. I'm certain those guys with the blue eyes and dark skin did well with the ladies.
Speaking of pretty ladies with blue eyes from thousands of years ago, have you ever heard of the "Beauty of Loulan" aka the Tarim Mummies? She was a gorgeous blue eyed woman who ended up in China of all places.
I've often wondered what it would be like to be able to get into a time machine and try and talk to her.
Check her out!

Oct. 8, 2013
IOWA CITY, Iowa -- University of Iowa offensive coordinator Greg Davis says the Hawkeyes' up-tempo attack is here to stay, but to varying degrees.
"It's something we'll continue to do, but we're not going to become a team that runs to the line and tries to snap it," Davis said Tuesday in a news conference inside the Hayden Fry Football Complex. "We want to play fast, faster than we have. Each ballgame will be a little bit different about how we approach it."
Davis is pleased by the balance the offense has produced over the first six weeks of the season. The Hawkeyes are averaging 207.5 yards on the ground and 209.3 yards through the air.
"We're not a team that's built to throw it 50 (times) and run it 30 (times)," he said. "We want to be balanced because we can protect (the quarterback) better, which we've done much better this year. That's what we're always going to shoot for."
Davis says sophomore quarterback Jake Rudock has taken the reigns of the Hawkeye offense and run with it, literally.
"For us to be as good as we can, the quick game has to be good. Hopefully that sets something up down the field. We're trying to take more shots than we did last year, and it would be nice if we hit some of them. We want to continue to let the defense know that we'll take our shots."
UI offensive coordinator Greg Davis
"We're pleased with where he's at and his ability to make plays with his feet," said Davis. "When you look at our third down conversion, we're much better than we were last year at this time. Part of the reason is his ability to make plays with his feet."
Rudock has rushed 31 times for 139 yards, making him the third-leading rusher on the Iowa team. He also has a team-best five touchdowns.
The offense has shown the propensity to go for the big plays in 2013, and Davis wants to see those opportunities grow over the final six games. For that to happen, Iowa needs to hit on the short routes to be able to go for pay dirt.
"For us to be as good as we can, the quick game has to be good," said Davis. "Hopefully that sets something up down the field. We're trying to take more shots than we did last year, and it would be nice if we hit some of them. We want to continue to let the defense know that we'll take our shots."
Davis says it was clear when junior wide receiver Damond Powell arrived on campus that he was a special player, but getting him up to game speed was a process. Davis sees Powell's role increasing as the season progresses.
"We want to continue to bring him on because he is a guy that can do things with it after the catch," said Davis. "I don't know there's a magic number right now, but we are aware that he is a guy that we have to keep bringing on."
Davis knows the benefit of having a versatile, change-of-style running back to compliment junior bruiser Mark Weisman. The Hawkeyes have found that in junior Damon Bullock, who accounted for 77 yards on nine touches against Michigan State, and is Iowa's second-leading rusher (256 yards) and receiver (13 catches, 113 yards) in 2013.
"Damon brings something that's a little bit different," said Davis. "The last couple of games he has played well with his blitz pick-ups and vision. Earlier in the year, he was looking for some home runs and not following his blocks.
"We need both Damon and Mark (Weisman) working at a high level to be able to get what we want out of them."
Iowa (4-2, 1-1) returns to action Oct. 19 at No. 3/4 Ohio State beginning at 2:30 p.m. (CT). The game will be televised on ABC.

1.) Terra Nova: Ideas for this song came after being captivated by an illustrated book about Scott of the Antarctic. I revisited the ideas recently.
Lyrics for Terra Nova
Down to the south where the albatross flies.
Down below zero is where that land lies,
Where Wilson drew sketches of penguin and gull,
Life below canvas and barnacled hull,
The shivering timbers and the creak of a mast,
Scantily clad for the chill and the blast.
Terra Nova
Frost bit the finger and blackened the toe.
They ate all their ponies and they drank melted snow.
The paraselena played tricks on the eye,
Reflecting the moon through the ice in the sky.
By a flickering candle they managed a brew,
And sometimes they thought they might even get through.
Terra Nova.
Fighting to muster a resolute tread.
Working like dogs to pull on a sled,
'Til the weather closed in and extracted its toll,
An ocean of space between them and the Pole.
Slip out for a moment and no-one will mind,
Not even a mark or a print left to find.
Terra Nova
To some it would seem the whole journey was tragic,
No sense of adventure, no moment of magic,
No stomach to push to get close to the edge,
But to shrug off complacency out on some ledge,
I'd go there if I could, in a boat made of wood,
And I'd stand in the shoes where those people once stood.
Terra Nova, Terra Nova, Terra Nova...
2.) Soldier was written at the time of the Hungerford Massacre in UK. A man with a machine gun lost the plot and murdered several school children. How could anybody do such things? It is also a thumbnail sketch of someone with whom I used to work. The two aspects are unrelated, but it does make you wonder. I play this in open G.
3.) Say You're Mine is a simple love song. Sometimes simplicity is a good way forward. I play this in DADGAD.
4.) Florence Nightingale jumped off the pages of a school history book. It is fairly self explanatory. I play this in Drop D with capo at the third fret.
5.) There Will Always Be A Place In My Life For You is in standard tuning. Again this is a fairly simple song. I like the words. The song employs stuff you get at school eg alliteration. My English Teachers (from all those years ago) would have been proud of me!
6.) Atheist is ironic because it is in fact a prayer. I play it on 5 string banjo in C tuning without finger picks! Don't play banjo much these days and certainly not in C tuning. Ah me - - - how things change?
7.) Striving To Be Someone was written for my daughter. For her, twenty years or so down the line from writing this song, I would still wish all the same things. Also in DADGAD.
8.) Half Open Doorways is a song which ponders on teenage years on the outskirts of smoggy Glasgow in the 1960s/1970s. All the angst of growing up against a background of perceived expectations, and trying to pull life into some sort of perspective. I play this in DADGAD capo three, but capo two would have probably been better for my voice.
9.) Nova Scotia is in standard tuning. It reflects on the highland clearances, when the Scots were driven out of their homes to make way for......sheep! It also touches on hardened attitudes towards southerners, and possibly one in particular who found himself fighting "auld feuds" time and again in the school playground.
10.) My Sister's Eyes is written from the perspective of a conjoined twin. I wrote it after reading a book called The Girls by Lori Larsens. This song was voted into the final twenty in the Oldie Composers song contest in UK 2012.
11.) If You Should Take Your Love From Me
http://www.paulopenshaw.com is my new website. These things are a new venture for me. Any constructive feedback would be greatly appreciated! Thanks Paul.

I have recently launched a new CD (The Potting Shed) I have also just launched a new website (www.paulopenshaw.com). Extracts from the Potting Shed are on the website.I am new to a lot of this stuff and therefore it has been quite a learning curve. I would be grateful for any feedback.
Best of luck in the Oldies comp. hope you make the next round

Hi Paul
Just listened and voted for "My Sister's Eyes." Great stuff. It reminds me a bit of a folk singer from here in Canada, originally from Scotland, named David Francey. Check him out on the internet if you have a chance.
Came to your page via Ken Brodie and I'm really gald I did. I am listening to your songs as I type this-"Say You're Mine" is simple and beautiful. I am going to keep listening (that was the first one I heard)-I love your playing and if those lyrics are typical I'm in for a real treat!!!!

Toronto, Vancouver Bypass August Housing Doldrums
By David George-Cosh
August is typically a slow month for real estate, as potential homeowners and sellers take a break from the housing market to enjoy the tail end of summer.
That wasn't the case for Canada's housing market, with two of the country's biggest cities posting surprisingly strong home sales in August.
Sales in Toronto jumped 21% last month, compared to a year earlier, with all segments of the market showing remarkably strong activity, according to the Toronto Real Estate Board. The average price of a home in Toronto was 503,094 Canadian dollars ($479,868) last month, up almost 5.5%.
Jason Mercer, senior market analyst for TREB, told Canada Real Time that while summer home sales in Toronto have seen a steady monthly decline, the high spike in August activity reflects "pent up demand" in the city's housing market.
"We're still seeing sales that were quite a bit lower earlier on in the year, so as we see that level out a little bit, that suggests we're accounting for some of the pent up demand that built up over the course of the last year as people adjusted to new lending guidelines," he said.
Mr. Mercer said Toronto housing market watchers shouldn't expect double-digit sales growth for the rest of the year, but should see an improvement from last year's numbers. Worries of the housing market bubbling up to frothy levels are overblown, he added.
"We're not going to see the same magnitude of growth in the last four months of the year," he said.
Meanwhile in Vancouver, residential property sales soared 52.5% in August from the same month last year, according to the Real Estate Board of Greater Vancouver. Prices, however, were slightly lower in August, falling 1.3% over the past year to C$601,500. Home prices are still up 2.3% in Vancouver since the beginning of the year, it said.
"People entering the market should not confuse stronger sales activity with rising prices. Home prices have been quite stable and consistent for much of this year," said Sandra Wyant, the president of the city's realtor association, in a statement.

Higher Ground Movie Reviews
User reviews on Higher Ground
Wow, opening night surprise. Beautifully filmed and cast 40-some years in the life and lives of a close-knit mid-American fundamentalist religious community. Non-judgmental to my surprise, R-rated for "Religion" and some f-bombs?? Endearing characters dealing with the ultimate question of bad things happening to good people. Best movie of the season so far..
I really liked this film and I highly recommend seeing it in the theaters. I think that the film was smart and honest and it made me think and question my life and my beliefs, I like when movies are able to do that. Vera Farmiga is a great actress and aprearantly she is a very good director as well, it makes me happy to see strong women in Hollywood. Vera's sister Taissa Farmiga did a great job with her role and I think that the whole family is just blessed with talent. I liked that the film does not push anything upn you, it lets you watch and decide for yourself.
This is Vera Farmiga first film and I am happy to say it is a really good start. I really liked this movie and I recommend seeing it in the theaters. It has an amazing cast that includes the director herself, Joshua Leonard and Dagmara Dominczyk. I ususally do not like films that are directed by actors, they are more often than not are vain and silly, but this film is an exception. Farmiga not only shined as a director, she also played her role very well. I think that the film is very interesting and smart, the film never judges or preaches, it makes you think and I just love film like that. Overall, I think this is ones of those films that will enhance your life and it is definitely worth seeing.
This is a drama directed by Vera Farmiga and stars Vera Farmiga, Joshua Leonard and Dagmara Dominczyk. I really liked this film and I highly recommend seeing it in the theaters. The film takes a look at what it takes to be a good mother, wife and overall a good person. The main character Corinne reminds me of myself and her quest for a better life is inspiring and sad in the same time. The film is kind of sad and sweet in the same time, it even has some comedic moments and that brightens the overall melancholic feel of the film. I like that the film discusses religion but it does not preach. Overall, I was uplifted by this film and it made me think about life and what it means, I love films like that.
