Ducks-Blackhawks: How they match up
Ducks (31-28-5) vs. Chicago Blackhawks (35-17-9)
Time: 5:30 p.m.
Site: United Center
TV/Radio: Prime Ticket; KLAA/830
|Goals against
|Power play
|Penalty killing
Outlook: While the Ducks keep fighting for a playoff berth, the Blackhawks continue to sit comfortably among the upper-echelon teams in the Western Conference. Chicago closed out February with a 0-2-1 mark, but used a 4-2 victory over the Kings on Sunday to get back on track. Jonathan Toews, Chicago's 20-year-old captain, has nine goals and four assists in his last eight games, including his first hat trick on Friday. Patrick Kane, also 20, has points (two goals, three assists) in his last five games. He has six points in seven career games against the Ducks. The Ducks have their share of young stars as well in Bobby Ryan and Andrew Ebbett, who accounted for one goal and three assists in Saturday's victory at Dallas. This game will close out a six-game trip for the Ducks. A victory here would be their fourth since leaving home. The Ducks will play their next five games, and six of their next seven, at Honda Center.

Audio computer-assisted self-interview (ACASI) may elicit more frequent reporting of socially sensitive behaviours than face-to-face (FtF)-interview. However, no study compared responses to both methods in female and male sex workers (FSW; MSW) in Africa.
We sequentially enrolled adults recruited for an HIV-1 intervention trial into a comparative study of ACASI and FtF-interview, in a clinic near Mombasa, Kenya. Feasibility and acceptability of ACASI, and a comparative analysis of enrolment responses between ACASI and FtF on an identical risk assessment questionnaire were evaluated. In total, 139 women and 259 men, 81% of eligible cohort participants, completed both interviews. ACASI captured a higher median number of regular (2 vs. 1, p<0.001, both genders) and casual partners in the last week (3 vs. 2, p = 0.04 in women; 2 vs. 1, p<0.001 in men). Group sex (21.6 vs. 13.5%, p<0.001, in men), intravenous drug use (IDU; 10.8 vs. 2.3%, p<0.001 in men; 4.4 vs. 0%, p = 0.03 in women), and rape (8.9 vs. 3.9%, p = 0.002, in men) were reported more frequently in ACASI. A surprisingly high number of women reported in ACASI that they had paid for sex (49.3 vs. 5.8%, p<0.001). Behaviours for recruitment (i.e. anal sex, sex work, sex between males) were reported less frequently in ACASI. The majority of women (79.2%) and men (69.7%) felt that answers given in ACASI were more honest. Volunteers who were not able to take ACASI (84 men, and 37 women) mostly lacked reading skills.
About 1 in 5 cohort participants was not able to complete ACASI, mostly for lack of reading skills. Participants who completed ACASI were more likely to report IDU, rape, group sex, and payment for sex by women than when asked in FtF interview. ACASI appears to be a useful tool for high risk behaviour assessments in the African context.
Audio computer-assisted self-interview (ACASI), which is known to capture some sensitive behaviours more reliably in high risk populations in developed nations
Research on computerized interviewing in the USA has shown that replacing the interviewer with a computer can provide conditions, including privacy and the perception of anonymity, that facilitate reliable and frank reporting, thereby increasing reports of sensitive behaviour in surveys of the general population
Perhaps due to its cost and technological complexity, the use of ACASI in African research studies has been low. Comparison studies of ACASI and FtF-interview in the general population in Zimbabwe and in 4 other developing countries suggested that participants are at ease with completing ACASI, and preferred a computer for answering sensitive questions, although low literacy may pose problems
To our knowledge, no study has compared responses by ACASI with FtF-interview in high risk populations recruited for HIV-1 prevention trials in Africa. In Mombasa, Kenya, male and female sex workers (MSW, FSW) have been invited to join an ongoing cohort study to monitor HIV-1 seroincidence in preparation for studies of new HIV-1 prevention interventions
Eligibility was assessed in 519 newly recruited cohort participants (343 men and 176 women). Of these, 121 (23%) volunteers (84 men, 37 women, p = 0.3) were not able to take ACASI; 72 (59%) were unable to read, 25 (21%) experienced a technical computer problem while taking ACASI, 16 (13%) were not willing, and 8 (7%) were initially willing but declined after waiting too long. Excluding technical failures, 398 (81% of 494) consecutive cohort participants were able and willing to complete ACASI.

Included those not active in past week: 61 men in ACASI; 53 in FtF.
Variable not asked in 23 subjects in ACASI.
Reported consistent (i.e. 100%) condom use with casual sex partners in the past week was similar for both methods (women: 55.6 ACASI vs. 57.6% FtF, men: 41.3 ACASI vs. 35.5% FtF). In ACASI, reported consistent condom use during anal sex over the last 3 months, was substantially lower for both women (18.5 ACASI vs. 24.6% FtF) and men (15.4 ACASI vs. 19.3% FtF,
Reported partner gender preference for women and men was similar in ACASI and FtF-interview. Fewer women reported anal sex practice (39.6 vs. 43.9, p = 0.15), and fewer women reported having received cash for sex (87.1 vs. 95.7%, p = 0.01) in ACASI than in FtF-interviews; these behaviours were recruitment criteria for cohort enrolment. Almost half of the women reported having paid for sex themselves in ACASI, while few admitted to this in FtF-interview (49.3 ACASI vs. 5.6% FtF, p<0.001).
Behaviours that were recruitment criteria for cohort enrolment, including anal sex practice, anal receptive role-taking, and having received cash for sex in the last 3 months, were reported significantly less frequently in ACASI than in FtF interviews with men. However, more men in ACASI than in FtF-interview reported participating in group sex (21.6 vs. 13.5%, p<0.001) and having paid for sex themselves (45.2 vs. 39.5%, p = 0.09).
ACASI and FtF-interview had excellent agreement for daily cigarette and marijuana use in women and men, good agreement for daily alcohol use, but poor agreement for being drunk daily. A lower proportion of women and men said in ACASI that they always used alcohol before sex (14.0% vs. 31.8%, p<0.001, for women; 14.2 vs. 40.0%, p<0.001, for men, data not shown).
IV drug use in the last three months was reported by six women in ACASI, but not at all in FtF-interview (4.4 vs. 0%, p = 0.03). Similarly, a higher proportion of men reported IV drug use in ACASI than FtF (10.8 vs. 2.3%, p<0.001). Both men and women reported having been raped (in the last three months) more often in ACASI compared to FtF (women: 6.6 vs. 4.4%, p = 0.4, men 8.9 v 3.9%, p = 0.002).
The order of interview mode for categorical variables was assessed for three risk behaviours that were significantly different between methods in women (i.e. received cash for sex, paid for sex, and IV drug use,
Of 95 women who took ACASI first, 16 (16.8%) denied receiving cash for sex in ACASI, but 15 of these 16 women subsequently reported this activity in FtF-interview. Of the 44 women who took ACASI after FtF-interview, only 2 (4.5%) denied transactional sex in ACASI, while one of the two women had reported this during the preceding FtF-interview (16.8 vs. 4.5%, p = 0.04). An equal proportion of women admitted to having paid another person for sex independent of when ACASI was taken (48.8 vs. 49.5%, p = 0.9). No differences were found for IV drug use by order of interview mode in women (data not shown).
In men, the order of the interview method mattered only for sex partner gender in men who had self-identified as men who have sex with men (MSM) in the FtF-interview (91.5% of all men). Of 140 MSM (by FtF-standard) who took ACASI before the FtF-interview, 14 (10.0%) admitted to have sex with women only to the computer, while none said so in the FtF-interview that they did after ACASI. Of 91 MSM who took ACASI after the FtF-interview (all reported to be either homosexual, or bisexual to the counsellor), 2 (2.2%) changed their sex partner preference in ACASI, and reported sex with women only (10.0 vs.2.2%, p = 0.02).
This is the first study comparing ACASI with FtF-interview in African high risk populations. We compared responses to an identical risk assessment questionnaire in 81% of the consecutively enrolled cohort participants (139 women, 259 men). Almost one out of five newly enrolled cohort participants (84 men and 37 women) were not able to take ACASI, mostly for lack of reading skills. Risk behaviour assessed in FtF-interview between non-ACASI and ACASI participants was not different in men; but women unable to use ACASI more frequently reported anal sex in the previous 3 months, and a higher number of recent casual partners.
The majority of women and men felt that answers given in ACASI were more honest. Over 90% of women and men were comfortable with ACASI, and, -although ACASI was on average twice as long as FtF-interview-, the majority of the volunteers had no objection to the longer interview time. Noteworthy is a recent assessment in ACASI of intentional provision of misinformation in FtF-interview by female microbicide trial participants in South Africa. Almost 80% had done this at least once, for reasons including politeness, to avoid criticism or seek praise, and embarrassment
We explored responses to an identical questionnaire offered in ACASI and in FtF-interview and assessed the impact of the order of the interview mode. Among participants who took both interview methods, ACASI and FtF-interview had excellent agreement for less sensitive behaviours in both men and women, as demonstrated by reports on daily cigarette or marijuana use. Group sex, IDU, (in men), and rape (in men) were significantly more frequently reported in ACASI. A similar trend towards higher responses in ACASI for group sex and rape was seen in women. Thus, ACASI led to more frequent reporting of sensitive behaviours that were not linked to recruitment criteria.
In contrast, potentially stigmatising behaviours that were also recruitment criteria were reported less frequently in ACASI compared to FtF-interviews. Transactional sex in the 3 months prior to cohort enrolment in men and women were less likely to be reported in ACASI. Moreover, 38 (14.7%) of men who reported anal sex in FtF- interviews did not report anal sex in ACASI, and MSM who took ACASI before FtF-interview were more likely to deny same sex behaviour than men who took ACASI after FtF-interview.
As African research sites are often located in settings under-served by formal health care
That almost half of the women admitted to having paid for sex in ACASI was a surprise, and initially doubted. A focus group discussion conducted in 2008 with 13 women who admitted to payment for sex in ACASI suggested that this behaviour was indeed common, and gave some women a sense of control over the sex they purchased. Furthermore, a prospective sexual behaviour study conducted among 81 male sex workers recruited from the same cohort population, revealed that 68% of 238 female partners had paid for sex
The crux to establishing high risk cohorts for HIV-1 prevention studies is a reliable and accurate assessment of volunteers' risk behaviour, that is sensitive to marginalised and stigmatised behaviours, and is conducive to truthful reporting. Surprisingly, ACASI has not been thoroughly evaluated among sex workers. The few ACASI comparison studies in Africa involved adolescents or general population, and firm conclusions of its usage have not been drawn, either because sample sizes were too small, or study findings were contradicting expectations
Why then is ACASI not more widely used in research settings in Africa? While start-up costs or lack of systems capacity may pose some challenges, trial sites are often able to access financial and technical support from internal and external sources. That ACASI is merely used experimentally and is not more established in African settings is partly due to unfamiliarity with the interview method, but more likely based on mixed and sometimes contradicting findings. Indeed, in a recent prospective, randomised, cross-over design of 655 women enrolled in a study on hormonal contraceptive use with ACASI and FtF-interview in Zimbabwe, ACASI yielded higher reports on several reproductive health behaviours but discrepancies between self-reports and clinical data highlighted persistent measurement challenges
We agree that multiple data sources should be used, and prefer ACASI as a screening tool to help identify high risk populations as it elicits sensitive behaviours (ie. IDU and rape) that would otherwise go unreported. We also believe that ACASI provides an environment more conducive to truthful reporting, that may help prospective volunteers avoid overstating their risk (e.g. anal sex, transactional sex).
ACASI has a number of other benefits over FtF-interview, including consistency and standardisation of data collection, and elimination of the need for further data transcription. Admittedly, comparing ACASI-, or FtF-interview, to sexual diary studies kept over a corresponding recall period would have provided a better opportunity to assess accuracy and reliability
This study has a number of additional limitations. First, our study was not able to distinguish honesty from accuracy; peer mobilization prior to cohort enrolment may have encouraged prospective volunteers to over-report 'high risk' behaviour in FTF-interviews. Second, the questionnaire had intrinsic weaknesses such as the assumption that regular and casual partners are clearly distinguishable. It also seems reasonable to assume that some questions were explained by counsellors differently during FtF-interview than in ACASI, and that participant had the opportunity to clarify uncertainties, but we have no documentation of this. Third, the FtF- interviews were performed by a number of different counsellors, and we were not able to gender-match counsellors to clients. It may be that some volunteers were less comfortable with counsellors of the opposite gender or with the interview style of a specific counsellor. Fourth, the study excluded volunteers who were not able to read and may have had higher sexual risk, given that more sexually transmitted infections were diagnosed in these volunteers. A more user friendly version of ACASI could have facilitated use irrespective of education level
Despite these limitations, we feel that ACASI could have an important role in risk behaviour assessments among high-risk populations in Africa. The majority of women (79.2%) and men (69.7%) felt that answers given in ACASI were more honest. Over 90% of women and men were comfortable with ACASI, and, -although ACASI was on average twice as long as FtF-interview-, the majority (80%) of the volunteers had no objection to the longer interview time. ACASI revealed some misclassification of same-sex behaviour, and an over-report of anal sex at cohort enrolment. Largely, ACASI elicited reports of risk behaviours in the same range as FtF-interview, and helped us to capture behaviours hitherto not recognised in our cohort populations. These behaviours were IDU in men and women, rape and group sex in men, and payment for sex by women. Such risk behaviour needs specific risk reduction counselling and further investigation.
Since July 2005, populations in and around Mombasa at higher risk for HIV infection, including men and women who admitted to transactional sex in the past 3 months, have been targeted for an HIV-1 prevention cohort. Identification and recruitment of prospective study participants has been described elsewhere
All study participants provided written informed consent. This study received approval from the National Ethical Review Board.
Newly enrolled cohort participants in the period March 2006–May 2008, who had basic reading skills were invited to undergo both interview methods (ACASI and FtF-interview) on the same day. For ease of clinic organization, participants were either allocated to take ACASI first followed by FtF-interview, or vice versa, in periods of approximately 6 months during the study period. All ACASI and FtF-interviews were conducted before voluntary testing and counselling for HIV-1.
We developed an ACASI questionnaire with identical questions to the structured questionnaire used for the FtF- interview. Ordered questions appeared in text on the computer screen, accompanied by a spoken recording in either English or Swahili. Automatic text and voice prompts included standard definitions of terms (e.g. " a new sex partner is someone you have only known for one week or less"). The questionnaire included questions on number of regular, casual, and new partners in the last week and month, anal sex (practice, role and condom use), gender of their sexual partners (from Sept 2006), transactional sex, substance misuse, and sexual violence.
ACASI study participants were accompanied to a small computer room and instructed in the working of ACASI using socio-demographic questions. Upon completion of these, ACASI was operated alone and in privacy to answer risk assessment questions in either English or Kiswahili. The ACASI programme included built-in skip patterns, and logic checks. Upon completion of each ACASI interview, six acceptability questions were asked in ACASI only.
Risk assessment in FtF-interview was conducted after socio-demographic questions were obtained. Counsellors had been trained on asking risk questions and providing explanations to certain questions during the start of the cohort (July 2005), and were familiar with the questionnaire as it also was used for follow up visits.
Questionnaire data was entered and stored in a secure database. Quality of data recorded was scrutinised by external data monitors, twice a month. Prior to data analysis, all site database entries were individually compared to source documents. Data cleaning, coding and analysis were conducted using Stata 9.2
The Chi-squared test and Student t-test were used to determine associations between categorical and continuous values, respectively. Differences in paired ACASI and FtF-responses were compared using the McNemar's chi squared test for binary data, and the Wilcoxon matched-pairs signed-rank test or paired Student t-test for continuous variables as appropriate
We wish to thank counsellors and clinic staff who facilitated the implementation of the study. Gregory Fegan, at KEMRI, and David Mark, at IAVI, for inspiring discussions about the use of technology for HIV-1 risk reduction in high risk populations in Kenya. Tony Kazungu for developing an earlier version of ACASI. Sassy Molyneux and Norbert Peshu for continued support during protocol development and implementation. Helen Thomson and Sarah Yates, at IAVI, for conducting 'IAVI-protocol' oversight and external data monitoring. This paper was published with the permission of the Director of KEMRI.

Taranaki's only competitor at the London Olympics, Dylan Dunlop-Barrett has his sights set on next year's Commonwealth Games and Rio de Janeiro in 2016. Sports editor Murray Hills talks with the talented swimmer about his goals in the pool.
Dylan Dunlop-Barrett has always dived in at the deep end.
After a tough 12 months in the sport he loves, the swimmer has focused and set his sights on winning a spot in the New Zealand swim team for next year's Commonwealth Games in Glasgow.
His ultimate goal is Rio de Janeiro in 2016 and a second Olympics.
"My main goal for 2014 is to first qualify and then to walk away from the Commonwealth Games with a medal in the 4x200m freestyle relay," he said.
"Looking at the criteria for selection for the Games, the individual qualifying times are quick for the 400m freestyle, my main event. The qualifying time is a 3min 48.6sec with my best being a 3min 51.1sec, so it's within reach but it will be tough."
Dunlop-Barrett said the 200m freestyle was becoming very competitive in New Zealand.
"With plenty of talented guys coming through, the 4x200m is starting to become a real medal possibility."
Dunlop-Barrett said there was also the Pan Pacific Championships a month after the Commonwealth Games.
"That's slightly more competitive as it includes the United States. It's also the competition in which our funding is decided from, so it's critical to first qualify for them and then perform well," he said.
"It will be difficult to back up after the hype of the Commonwealth Games, something we'll have to be aware of leading into it. The individual times are a bit easier to qualify, but they're not taking specialised relay teams."
The trials for both these competitions take place in April next year.
Dunlop-Barrett said Rio was still his main goal.
"It was tough to walk away from the London Games knowing I could have done better than what I did. The Olympics are so unlike any other competition I've ever been to," he said.
"Looking back, we were so emotionally unprepared for the Games. I'd like to have a better crack at Rio and hopefully secure an individual spot on the team. I would love to finish my career on a high in Rio."
Dunlop-Barrett said 2013 had been a tough year.
"I missed the selection for the world championships. We had a lot of coach changes and tension at the pool while Swimming NZ went through a review process. It was a tough preparation before our trials," he said.
"I was gutted at the time, but fortunately myself and Steven Kent [who also missed the team] were sponsored by Northern Arena [an Auckland swim school] to do a two-month campaign with the New Zealand team in Europe."
Dunlop-Barrett said the Kiwi swimmers did a lot of racing and had an altitude camp in Spain.
On a personal level, his highlights were a fourth in the 1500m freestyle at the French Open and a win in the B final of the 400m freestyle at the United States Open.
"They're two of the biggest swimming nations and both competitions attracted competitors from all around the world. The standard of racing was very high," he said.
Dunlop-Barrett said it was great to see the New Zealand team perform so well at the world champs.
"Lauren [Boyle] and I did a lot of work together before the champs, so it was great to see her kill it. She's exceptional, I've learnt a lot from her. I hope she's learnt something from me too."
Dunlop-Barrett said his training was going well.
"Mentally, I feel much fresher than I was this time last year and swimming much better. I'm probably swimming technically the best I ever have. I'm working well with my coach David Lyles . . . he's the fifth coach I've had this year," he said.
"I'm experienced enough now to know what I need to do and work with my own technique, I think for myself now. David creates a lot of atmosphere, so he's great to work with."
Training involves 10 sessions of just over two hours, plus three weight sessions a week, plus Swiss ball and core work.
"I spend about 35 hours a week at the pool. The target race is still the 400m freestyle."
Dunlop-Barrett has just returned from a three-week camp on the Gold Coast with the New Zealand swim squad.
"It was great to see some sun and get some hard work done.
"I had some OK results. I had a personal best in the 200m backstroke with a 2min 04.64sec . . . my previous best was 2min 06.3sec. My freestyle times were 3min 58sec for the 400m and 1min 52.0sec for the 200m, not bad for this time of the year."
Dunlop-Barrett said he would try to get away for a few weeks to an altitude camp in America in February.
"It's pretty important to get away on trips as a stimulus, otherwise you risk getting stale."
Dunlop-Barrett said he was still juggling studies with swimming.
"I'm still studying extramurally at Massey University, doing a business degree majoring in finance. It's only part-time study. I took all of 2012 off with the Olympic campaign. I'm just over half way through my degree," he said.
"I'm also working for the Northern Arena Swim School. I also love making music - my spare time is usually spent playing the piano or any other instrument I can get my hands on, I love my music."
Dunlop-Barrett said he was still involved with surf lifesaving.
"I still try to do races once in a while and I enjoy getting involved at New Plymouth Old Boys.
"I'm starting to enjoy coaching and teaching swimming. When I can, I help out Ayla [his sister] at her swim school [Coastal Aquatics]. I'm not sure if that will be my career choice after swimming though."

Pattern suggestion: 1 yard of jersey
Hi all,
Have managed to order just 1 yard of jersey from Spoonflower, very silly I know! I was wondering if any of you had tips on good patterns that might work? I'm a size US6, UK 10-12…
All comments and suggestions gratefully received (aside from 'you numpty, who buys only one yard?!')

Hi, what about this cute tshirt? http://www.burdastyle.com/pattern_store/patterns/striped-t-shirt-022013 The burda photo underrates the pattern but check out the other members versions. I'm not sure how much a yard is but I can get a tshirt out of a metre and I'm a size 12. If you can't quite fit the pattern in you could shorten the hem a little
Apr 25, 2014, 03.05 PMby xxyyzz
1 yard should be enough for a simple blouse (sleeveless or cap sleeves or short shirt sleeves). The basic bodice block could be a good guide. All the best…

Paul Lambert has called for Villa to be ruthless in the final survival run-in.
Boss Lambert has been delighted with the performances over the past few weeks, with a host of dynamic displays since January.
But the manager has bemoaned the concession of late goals against West Brom, Everton and Arsenal.
Lambert wants his team to show a killer instinct between now and the end of the season as they look to see out games and pick up the vital points needed.
Writing in the News & Record, he said: "The tempo of play, the movement and endeavour - and the energy and sheer will to win - have been very much in evidence for a number of weeks now.
"The consistency of our performances is very encouraging as we get deeper into the final third of the season.
"There are 30 points to play for, which is a hell of a lot of football in which to compete between now and the middle of May.
"If we continue to play the way we're playing, results will come. I'm sure of that.
"The fact is that we are where we are but we've learnt plenty over the course of the campaign so far and the most important lesson has been the necessity to see the games through. It's essential in an unforgiving league.
"Too many times we've seized the advantage in games only to be pegged back.
"You have to see it out when you get into that position. It's that simple."

Jayden lived with her father Paul and attended Primet High School in Colne for a year.
He is still believed to live in the Pendle area along with two of her uncles, Darren Parkinson and Glen Parkinson.
Jayden's body was discovered in a shallow grave at a cemetery in Didcot, Oxfordshire, after she had been missing for a fortnight.
An initial post-mortem examination carried out by a Home Office pathologist proved inconclusive, but further tests found the cause of Jayden's death to be consistent with pressure to the neck.

Artificial Rock Waterfalls: Solomon He first arrived some 30+ years ago with his wife and started a family in Canada (3 kids). He manufactures each rock panel locally in Surrey and delivers them to the site where they are then assembled into the desired shape. Solomon has moved on from over 30 years of commercial and residential landscaping throughout the Lower Mainland to now building custom rock waterfalls. For many years Solomon's family and friends operated a soup kitchen on East Hastings (2nd floor beside Pigeon Park) 3 days a week providing warm meals, clothing, shelter, and sharing words of hope to Vancouver's less fortunate population. Solomon's hobbies include playing golf, fishing, ministry and making faux rocks from our factory.

De Rodriguez Ocean Set For Sneak Peek Benefit Night
15 ceviches will be found at De Ocean
Lee Klein
There has been surprisingly little hoopla over De Rodriguez Ocean, due to open at The Hilton Bentley at the tip of South Beach "late next month" (translation: October if we're lucky). Maybe folks figure it's just another branch of D. Rodriguez Cuba, although there are a couple of clear differences: Ocean, as the name suggests, will be a seafood-based restaurant with ceviche (15 varieties), raw bar, and sustainable fish and shellfish selections -- all prepared with D-Rod's signature Nuevo Latino flair (Rodolfo Cavadros will be chef de cuisine). And the name is not D. Rodriguez, but De Rodriguez. Which leads to a major question: Does Short Order continue to refer to Doug as D-Rod, or do we switch to De-Rod? Or the more hip-hop D-Day Rod?
Rodriguez will be offering a sneak peak of his new restaurant via a "Four Chefs For Success For Kids Benefit Night"
held at the new venue on September 15th, 2010. The other chefs joining
D-Day are Timon Balloo of Sugarcane Raw Bar Grill; Tim Andriola of Timo

Lew Wood, a former TODAY anchor who covered the civil rights movement and John F. Kennedy's presidency, has died at 84 years old.
Wood succeeded Frank Blair as the news anchor on TODAY in 1975, remaining with the show for a year before going on to a career in public relations. He previously anchored the Six O'Clock News at WNBC-TV in New York. Wood died of kidney failure at a hospice in Riverside County, Calif., on Wednesday.
Before his time with NBC, Wood covered Vietnam and the civil rights movement, once accompanying Martin Luther King on a march. Wood also reported on a breakfast speech by JFK on Nov. 22, 1963 for CBS News, taking a personal photo of the president only hours before Kennedy left for the Dallas motorcade in which he was shot.
"He was a workhorse, very steady and reliable, excellent reporter and had good on-camera presence," former colleague Dan Rather told The Associated Press.
Wood began his career in 1952 at WDZ-AM in Decatur, Ill., after graduating from Purdue University. After leaving TODAY, Wood worked in public relations as a media trainer for Fortune 500 companies until his retirement in 2006. He is survived by his wife, Monique; daughters Carole Gorenflo, Brigitte Wood and Lara Wood; son, Robert; 10 grandchildren and one great-grandchild.

There is something special about cutting a rock open for the first time.
You don't know what's going to be inside, North Shore Gem and Mineral Club vice-president Harold Buckton says.
Mr Buckton has been a member of the club, which started in 1965, for more than 40 years.
It has 140 members and holds a workshop in Glenfield once a week where people can learn to cut and polish raw stones and gems they have discovered.
The club also offers jade and bone carving classes and organises regular trips, Mr Buckton says.
"It's a great family hobby, mums and dads can take the kids out to the bush and beaches looking for stones," he says.
New Zealand has the best carnelian in the world. The brownish-red mineral has been carved by the Chinese for thousands of years, Mr Buckton says.
He says jasper and petrified wood can be found on the Shore in Castor Bay and Northcote.
Tomorrow and Sunday the North Shore club is hosting a Gem, Mineral and Fossil Show.
They are encouraging people to bring along their rocks, gems and fossils to be identified and watch faceting demonstrations.
The show is on from 9am to 4pm at the Milford Senior Citizens Hall, 141 Kitchener Rd.

I am so pleased to sell another original painting! This one was a favorite floral called "Color Flow". A very nice young man drove down from Washington and Lee University to buy it for his girlfriend for Christmas. They are both about to graduate and plan to be corporate lawyers. I wish them well! Paintings can be the greatest gift. They only go up in value and it is a gift from the heart and soul of someone who lives to paint. I only wish I didn't always have dirty dishes in my future. Not to mention dirty laundry and dirty house. I still get to paint because I am nothing if not organized. I have my faults, but I am determined to paint and nothing stops me.
The other day I mentioned to my fructose intolerant husband that I usually eat an apple a day so I guess I keep the doctor away. His response was if he ate an apple a day the doctor would be every day to take all his money. What kind of crazy diet asks people to give up most vegetable and fruits? Fructose intolerance is a mean trip.
Be sure to look for my best-selling print, "Reaching Out", on The Mindy Project. I am looking forward to being on TV myself this spring on The Hour of Joy. Joy Sutton is quite an interesting lady and I agree with her that we need a program of good news.

These look like sunglass cases maybe they had some left over so they poked a hole in the bottom and now are trying to push them off as Shuffle cases?

Simple yet cute. A bit smaller than a sunglass case Keegan…we hope you understand that much…. Their website is a heck of alot nicer than the last couple shuffle case sites.

Looks like a tiny sock.

I like the crimson snake. Kinda rockstar like :)
my girlfriend would probably dig these. But she needs to buy her own Shuffle!
Posted by LupinIII on March 23, 2005 at 1:49 PM (CST)
i still like the one the kid made out of duck tape…
Posted by Nectar on March 23, 2005 at 2:43 PM (CST)
Nope! Don't really dig these. Maybe they'll have more interesting ones for the spring line…
Posted by andijazz on March 24, 2005 at 12:04 PM (CST)
Bought two; three more coming. They're beautiful. Well-made, moisture resistant, tiny, light, lined with soft fabric… and you can wrap the earphone cord around the case and secure it with the snap strap on the back. Very handy.
Check out her site, updates coming soon!
