Designers Toolbox
Designer Toolbox is a nifty widget that addresses desktop publisher's and webdesigner's needs.
It contains a bunch of conversion stuff (font measures, html entities, color tables, etc. ) along with a blind text generator.
Starting from Version 1.5 Designers Toolbox is donation ware - the author is quiet addicted to red wine and needs your support via pay pal...
Required OS: not specified
Tags: widget , dtp , webdesign
4 Opinions
@bitnix : Version 1.2 is free for all. Version 1.6 is actually donation ware - Michael wants to get a glass of red wine. So you're encouraged to feed the authors pay pal account... Gonna ask Michael about the localization of both, the website and the widget itself.
The link needs to be updated. It's actually on 1.0.2, and this is the always-working download link, regardless of version:
It is, by the way, just as cool as it sounds. Awesome tool!
Hmm⦠I clicked the link under Downloads on the right, but nothing happened.
Oh I wish they wrote in english... The widget has an english name, but the webpage is all in german and I can't find where to download version 1.6 of this widget.

I was glad to see Don Rogers' column "Mass murder's myths" in last Friday's Vail Daily. The article does an excellent job of clearly explaining some key points about risk, safety and the homicide rate.
As a psychologist, I especially appreciate Jeff Mariotte's quote, "Put a psychologist in every school before that armed guard." Because mental health services are often undervalued, it might actually cost fewer taxpayer dollars to add psychologists to school staff than it would cost to hire full-time armed guards.
Upon reflection, maybe it could turn out to be quite a shame that most psychologists are opposed to "packing heat." At the rate things are going, it wouldn't surprise me to hear someone suggest that the most economical option would be to hire armed psychologists. When they aren't counseling students, they could function as security personnel. Now, that would convey an interesting message to school children, wouldn't it?
On a serious note, I feel privileged to practice in a profession that has so much potential to make a positive difference in people's lives. We will never know how many mass murders never happened because a potential assailant was helped by a psychologist before things got to the breaking point.
As discussed in the column, we do know that mass murders have happened with armed security personnel on site. I'm pleased to see a dialogue about adding psychologists alongside discussions about having teachers carry concealed weapons and requiring armed guards in every school.
Of course, there was a psychologist on staff at the Sandy Hook school, and sadly, she was one of the victims. My entire profession is very proud of the effort she made to intervene with the shooter, even though it cost her her life.
Psychologists may not carry guns, but we carry the ability to help people who are troubled and improve lives. And as evidenced by the actions of Mary Sherlach, we can be pretty brave, too.

12 Hair and Makeup Looks Men Hate
Trying to catch the guy at the bar's eye? It won't happen if you look like this
Sexiness: 4
Likeliness of Asking Her Out: 4
Here's what they had to say:
The bad: "Reminds me too much of the '80s."
The good: "Curly hair = sexy."
The just plain weird: "I associate this with King Charles I and Diana Ross. I don't want to make out with them."

FILE - In this undated file photo provided by the Essex, Vt., police, Bill and Lorraine Currier are seen. Investigators say Israel Keyes, found dead Sunday, Dec. 2, of an apparent suicide in an Anchorage, Alaska jail, was not only suspected of killing Anchorage barista Samantha Koenig but may be linked to seven other possible slayings around the country, including the Curriers, of Essex, Vt.. The bodies of the Curriers have never been found. They were last seen leaving their jobs on June 8, 2011. Anchorage police chief Mark Mew said Keyes confessed to killing Koenig, as well as killing Bill and Lorraine Currier of Essex, Vt. Keyes, 34, also indicated he killed four others in Washington state and one person in New York state, but didn't give the victims' names, authorities said. (AP Photo/Essex police, File)

An Israeli soldier stands on a tank at a staging area near the Israel Gaza Strip Border, southern Israel, early Tuesday, Nov. 20, 2012. U.N. Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon is urging Israeli forces and Gaza militants to hold their fire, warning that a further escalation of the seven-day-old conflict would endanger the entire region. (AP Photo/Lefteris Pitarakis)
JERUSALEM (AP) -- U.S. Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton says the United States is pushing for a `'durable outcome" promoting stability following Israel's offensive in the Gaza Strip.
Clinton spoke alongside Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu Tuesday after she rushed to the region to help forge a cease-fire after a week of fighting between Israel and Gaza militants.
She said "the goal must be a durable outcome that promotes regional stability and advances the security and legitimate aspirations of Israelis and Palestinians alike."
Netanyahu said Israel would welcome a diplomatic solution to the crisis, but threatened further military activity, saying he is ready to take "whatever action" is necessary.

Kealy Bowers still lives in a place where there are towering, skyscraping mountains - only now they're made of steel, concrete and glass.
It's New York City.
Kealy, 22, whose hometown is Frisco, graduated from Colorado State University in Fort Collins in May with a bachelor of science in apparel and merchandising and a minor in business.
One week later, she was in New York City, starting an internship with Harper's Bazaar Magazine's accessories department, working in the fashion closet.
A couple of months later, Kealy was hired full-time as the assistant for Hearst Magazine's Harper's Bazaar's new e-commerce platform, ShopBAZAAR.com.
"ShopBAZAAR is the first-ever fully developed content-to-commerce venture," explains Kealy. "ShopBAZAAR lets readers move from the inspiration of seeing desirable items in our pages to effortlessly acquiring them in a fully immersive fashion experience.
"We do not hold our own inventory of the merchandise we are selling," she adds. "Instead, we are working with retailers and designers directly to ship the styles to the customer - allowing the customer to purchase items from multiple designers in one unified shopping cart."
The site was launched to the public October 2012. Its link is http://shop.harpersbazaar.com/.
"It's been really exciting to watch the site come to fruition along the way," says Kealy. "I work with our merchandising editor to select items to be featured on the site in addition to the items that are already featured in the magazine each month."
Kealy explains her fashionista lifestyle in the Big Apple this way:
"Outside of work I love taking advantage of all of the amazing restaurants - trying not to go to the same place twice. I usually spend my weekends by grabbing a bagel in the morning and exploring the East Village and Soho's unique stores and coffee shops. I love going to the Brooklyn Flea Market on Sundays, which is full of cool vintage finds; never a dull moment living in this crazy city."
Kealy's parents are Eddie and Patti Bowers of Frisco. After a stint as a PR spokesman at Park City Mountain Resort in Utah, Eddie and Patti moved to Copper Mountain Resort. Up at Copper he was in resort media relations and Patti was busy designing and selling fashionable ski hats.
Today, Eddie is a broker associate with Slifer Smith and Frampton Real Estate in Breckenridge, while Patti is a paraprofessional at Frisco Elementary.
Kealy's brother Matt, 25, teaches high school math and coaches at Colorado Rocky Mountain School in Carbondale. He graduated from Summit High School in 2006 and Bowdoin College in Maine in 2010.
Kealy graduated from Summit High in 2008, where she was a strong student and athlete, playing volleyball and soccer.
The Summit County Arts Exhibit Committee Board's 2013 Artists Speaker Series continues Sunday at 4 p.m., featuring popular local entertainer Randall McKinnon playing his dulcimers and guitars currently on display in the Mount Royal Room at the County Commons.
Randall will talk about his musical exhibit and play Appalachia and Rocky Mountain standards.
It's free and refreshments will be served.
Not long ago, Hey, Spike! chatted via phone with fellow Pueblo Central High grad Larry Ambrose, now of Denver, where he's a hospitality law professor at Metropolitan State University and community activist.
Larry's wife is Jane Parker-Ambrose, a world-famous kitemaker and founder of "One Sky One World International Kite Fly for Peace." The French have dubbed her the "godmother of kiting."
The Ambroses were staying up in Breckenridge when they ran into Denver friends, newly engaged A.J. Steinke and Tiffany Cohen, who were "documenting the height of their bliss juxtaposed against the backdrop of Rocky Mountain peaks. We later met up to toast them over dinner with strawberries and champagne at the Whale's Tail," Larry says.
Coming from California recently for a ski vacation were those younger Annunziatas: Jim and Jen, with sons Max, 9, and Peter, 7, when the French American School had its winter break.
Jim is the director of finance at Apple, and Jen is a practicing psychiatrist in San Francisco. The couple is expecting a daughter in May. Congrats.
Jim's parents are Jim and Maryann, who have vacation place in Frisco, where they visit in the warmer months from Oakland, Calif.
Miles F. Porter IV, nicknamed "Spike," a Coloradan since 1949, is an Army veteran, former Climax miner, graduate of Adams State College, and a local since 1982. An award-winning investigative reporter, he and wife Mary E. Staby owned newspapers here for 20 years.

Apple Tries (A Little) Harder to Get Its Message Out
Apple has been subtly increasing some of its PR—at least for now.
Last week, the company issued a press release to announce it was upgrading its mobile operating system from iOS 6 to 6.1. It was the first time Apple has issued an official press release for a non-major mobile software release unrelated to a new device since 2010. (The new software allows you to order movie tickets through its virtual assistant Siri and adds faster network support for some European carriers).
At the same time, Apple communications staff have recently sent reporters more favorable third-party reports about the company, including a study predicting that by 2014, Apple will be as accepted in the enterprise as Microsoft is today. Apple, and indeed virtually all its competitors, send reporters favorable studies from time to time. But the five reports Apple has sent since the start of the year, mostly related to mobile market share, represent more than recent months.
Apple has long been willing to sing its own praises when it needs to, issuing press releases about major milestones, products and sales.
So rather than a big shift, the latest moves represent a recognition that competition is heating up, a person familiar with the matter says. Apple also has more to cheer internationally, with growth in countries like China very strong. Apple CEO Tim Cook gave an interview to local Chinese media during a trip there earlier this year.
Since taking the helm of the company in 2011, Mr. Cook has clung fiercely to the secrecy of his predecessor Steve Jobs and the belief that when it comes to discussing products and Apple's inner-workings, less is more. By all measures, Apple remains quieter than most. Despite a handful of interviews, Mr. Cook has said little publicly outside Apple events; the company still rarely allows even senior executives to speak to the media.
But Apple has taken a beating with investors as growth has slowed and profits flattened. Its shares have fallen around 35% since a record high close of $702.10 a share reached last September. And competitors like Samsung Electronics are starting to steal significant buzz and sales and spending handsomely to do so, including on a Super Bowl ad.
Still, as one of those studies Apple flagged points out, sales of its most important product, the iPhone, are strong. Apple passed Samsung in the fourth quarter to become the top mobile phone vendor in the U.S. for the first time, according to Strategy Analytics.

EAGLE COUNTY, Colorado - It appears as though construction projects involving new houses, renovations and remodeling are on the rise in 2012 from a decline that goes back to 2004, while larger projects still remain scarce in the valley.
By the end of June, there had only been 203 building permits filed in unincorporated Eagle County, compared with the 710 filed in 2004. Likewise, permit values in 2004 grossed $216 million, while only $28 million has been brought in through June, according to data compiled by Eagle County. Yet the scale and expense of construction projects have relatively leveled off since 2010, and 2012 is on track to be comparable to the two previous years. In a slower economy, contractors said they still try to hire locally for projects.
"We're still surviving," said Eagle County Chief Building Official Dan Stanek.
Of these permits, the majority have been remodeling and renovation contracts for construction companies such as Evans Chaffee Construction Group.
Chris Evans, president of Evans Chaffee, reported that the company has between one-third and half the number of clients it had in 2008, yet Evans has seen an upsurge in remodels and renovations compared with the year before.
"Typically, there are, in my opinion, a greater number of smaller projects - renovation and remodels - than there have been in the past," Evans said. "But those projects also come with a relatively lower price in terms of dollar volume and size of the project as a whole."
The real estate market is also bouncing back in 2012.
Barbara Scrivens, vice president of Ron Byrne and Associates Real Estate, said the market is turning around this year, although she said there has not been much fluctuation in the high-end, luxury market in recent years.
"The real estate market has had its best start since 2008," she said. "We're in comeback mode right now."
Byrne's current construction project is a $19.5 million, 10,500-square-foot house on Forest Road. It features seven bedrooms, a three-car garage, full gym and a spa. The mansion was built without a specific buyer lined up on confidence that the market is strong enough to make a sale when it is finished.
Yet the large-scale projects that anchor many local contractors are still scarce in the valley, companies such as Evans Chaffee said.
"In the past, we've been involved in condo projects and similar size projects," Evans said. "But they just aren't happening now. ... The market isn't there right now. My gut feeling is that we need to get past this presidential election before anything really significant happens."
The few big projects in the valley right now are being funded by Vail Resorts and the federal government and look to employ local businesses.
About half of the new gondola from Vail Village to Mid-Vail is being manufactured in Grand Junction by Leitner-Poma, while the cabins and other portions are being constructed in Europe. When it is completed, it will be the fastest gondola of its kind in the world.
"We're thrilled not only to have the opportunity to work with Vail once again but also to bring such a tremendous advancement in lift technology to the industry in North America," said Rick Spear, president at Leitner-Poma of America Inc.
A new high-altitude training facility for military and search and rescue helicopter pilots has been the dream of Col. Joel Best for the past two decades and has been overseen by Lt. Col. Josh Day and Maj. Tony Somogyi since 2004. The new facility has employed close to 400 people.
Eight of the 16 subcontractors are local companies, and the general contractor, Hensel Phelps Construction Co., is a national construction company based in Greeley that moved HAATS workers into the Gypsum community for the duration of the project.
"This is the only project we have going on here in the Vail Valley," Hensel Phelps Superintendent Jason Munoz said. "We're all pretty happy up here."

The 2012 election is over. Nationally, President Barack Obama was re-elected to lead the country for another four years. In Minnesota, democrats gained majorities in both the Senate and the House and the public voted down both proposed Voter ID and Marriage Amendments. Locally, several closely contested races will bring new leadership to municipal and county governments come the new year.
In Granite Falls, Mayor Dave Smiglewski, Council Member At-Large Scott Peterson and Ward I (west Granite Falls) representative Joe Fagnano were re-elected to the city council while write-in candidate Sarina Otaibi bested long-term councilman and fellow write-in candidate Bill Miller.
The outcome was less dramatic for the Clarkfield City Council which had no contested races and two spots open for write-in candidates. Here, Mayor Gene Kockelman was re-elected to his second term as Mayor while Dave Biermaier was also chosen to reprise his council role. Taking the place of departing council members Francis Staab and Bob Schlenner are two write-in candidates, Scott Vold and Erin Crosby.
The Yellow Medicine East School Board had five candidates vying for four seats. All four incumbents –– Jane Hagert, Tim Opdahl, Steve Zumhofe and Grant Velde –– were re-elected leaving challenger, Mark Hoeper, the odd man out.
In Yellow Medicine County, District 1 (Echo and Wood Lake) board representative Greg Renneke topped Joe Rohlik to retain his spot on the Yellow Medicine County Board, while fellow commissioner incumbents Louis Sherlin, Ron Antony and Gary Johnson also carried the day, with only Sherlin running opposed. Winner of the District 2 (west Granite Falls) seat that has been vacant for the past year following the death of commissioner Dick Wambeke was John Berends over Mitch Brovold in a nail-biter.
Also extremely close, was the Chippewa County District 3 (east Granite Falls) contest which saw Granite Falls resident Dave Nordaune defeat incumbent commissioner Dennis Anderson.
The new Legislative District 16 and 17 was evenly split by Republicans and Democrats. Senate District 16 and House District 16A saw GOP incumbent Senator Gary Dahms and Representative Chris Swedzinksi, defeat Ted Suss and Al Kruse, respectively, while in Senate District 17 incumbent DFL Senator Lyle Koenen and Representative Andrew Falk overtook former District 13 Senator Joe Gimse and Tim Miller, respectively.

Pussy Riot Say They Still Want to 'Drive Away' Putin
Nadezhda Tolokonnikova and Maria Alyokhina, the two members of Russian art collective/ punk band Pussy Riot who were freed from prison this week, said they still want to "drive away" President Vladimir Putin as they gave a two-hour news conference in Moscow Friday morning.
"As for Vladimir Putin, we still feel the same about him," Tolokonnikova said, according to the Associated Press. "We still want to do what we said in our last performance for which we spent two years in prison: drive him away."
The two members were released from prison this week as part of an amnesty bill signed last week, ending their nearly two-year incarceration that captured global attention. They were arrested with a third member (who was released last year) after leading an anti-Kremlin "punk prayer" inside Russia's main Orthodox cathedral in 2012.
At the news conference Friday, Tolokonnikova and Alyokhina said their release hadn't changed their attitude toward Putin and the government. Tolokonnikova said "the scariest thing about Putin's Russia is the impossibility to speak and be heard" and suggested that oil tycoon Mikhail Khodorkovsky, pardoned earlier this month after spending 10 years in prison, would make a better president, the AP said.
The women also said they plan to create an organization to assist Russian inmates. While in prison, Tolokonnikova announced a hunger strike and released a lengthy public letter that detailed what she described as "slavery-like" conditions at Russia's Penal Colony No. 14.

Keep your Pup Busy with a Puzzle Toy!
Interactive puzzle toys are a great way to keep a dog busy.
Interactive Toys for Dogs: Nina Ottosson Dog Toys
Dogs need toys that will keep them active mentally, as well as physically. Until recently, most dog owners have been focusing primarily on the physical. There has since been a large demand for more interactive dog toys that keep the dog mentally stimulated through puzzles and challenging games. A leader in this industry, Nina Ottosson Dog Toys, creates quality interactive dog toys that are also made of environmentally friendly materials.
Nina Ottosson dog toys keep dogs active and are very fun for both the dog, and the dog owner. The games require the dogs to think and then the game rewards the dog with a treat. The games work by having the dogs solve puzzles requiring them to lift or move objects in order to find hidden treats. These games can keep your dog interested and active for hours at a time.
Dogs rarely get the proper mental stimulation they need. When they are not engaged mentally and physically, they become bored. Boredom leads to stress, and that stress will manifest itself through bad behaviors and hyper-activeness. Many of these interactive toys for dogs could be left available to entertain your dog for long periods of time while you are out of the house. These games can be played outdoors, but they are also fantastic indoor activities for days when there are poor weather conditions. Just as you may stay inside with a board game on a rainy day, your dog can stay in with a Nina Ottosson dog toy for entertainment.
These interactive dog toys are available in many different difficulty levels, to accommodate different dogs and different breeds. Some dogs struggle with the more challenging puzzles in the beginning, but there are easier puzzles that can be completed for dogs at any skill level. The toys can actually improve your dog's thought processes as the dog progresses up the difficulty levels.
Nina Ottosson dog toys provide an excellent bonding activity between you and your dog. As the dog is learning how to solve the puzzles, they are also learning to listen to guidance and positive reinforcement from their owner. The dog learns that by listening to their owner, they will be rewarded, and a trusting relationship develops and is strengthened.
Interactive dog toys sharpen the dog's mind while keeping them active. By learning how to take direction while solving a Nina Ottosson dog toy, the dog will become more susceptible to learning other behaviors the owner would like to instill. You can now teach your dog positive behaviors, and have a happy and smart dog, with the help of interactive dog toys.

Thursday, Oct. 4, 202
GRANITEVILLE, S.C. -- The Aiken County Sheriff's Office is looking for two men who stole from an 80-year-old woman after breaking into her home early Thursday morning.
The white males came into the victim's home on Gregg Street around 12:20 a.m.
The woman says she was standing in her room when she heard a noise. That's when she says the two men, both wearing dark clothing and something covering their faces, came charging toward her.
One of them grabbed her by the wrists and said, "Give us the money, old lady." This burglar held her by the wrists while the other man took cash out of her pocketbook and grabbed her cellphone.
She says one of the burglars asked where a former tenant was during the incident.
The reporting officer says her wrists were "badly bruised and bleeding." EMS responded to her home for treatment.
There were no signs that the burglars forced their way inside the home. The victim says she may have left her key in the back door.
Neither burglar has been identified at this time.
Anyone with information about this crime is asked to call the Aiken County Sheriff's Office at (800) 922-9709. Individuals can also call Crimestoppers of the Midlands: (888) CRIME-SC. Callers can remain anonymous and will be eligible for a cash reward between $50 and $1,000.

Using kdesvn on a multimedia project
This has been a very busy year for our "Lunatics" project (a free-film/free-culture animated web series about the first settlers on the Moon). As with many software projects, we keep our assets in a version-control system -- specifically "Subversion". In principle, Subversion does everything we need. The command line interface, however, does not make the right things easy for us (it's far too obsessed with parsing text files, which are incidental to our project, and it balks when given binary data files (which are essential). To keep a handle on the file tree, we need something a little smarter, and I've recently adopted "kdesvn" to do that job. This seems to solve the biggest annoyances.

Thanks to a generous gift, residents of a Byron center can learn some serious agricultural skills.
In memory of Helen Trescony, her family recently donated a tractor to the Orin Allen Youth Rehab facility. They also contributed money for a scholarship.
"She was a lifelong advocate for at-risk youngsters," Allen said. "She devoted her whole life to helping kids." The tractor is a welcome addition to the ranch's gardening and landscaping program.
"We have an awesome group of people from (a Discovery Bay) club working with the kids," he said, emphasizing that the skills taught now can help the boys later on.
Allen said community groups and residents make a "big difference and impact on the kids. They're making a connection." He said there are several sets of people from churches to a Cops for Kids group that contribute on a regular basis. "People want to help (the boys)."
Allen said that the Lesher Foundation is still going strong with its donations. "They haven't given up after all these years." Situated on Bixler Road, the facility was established as a treatment center for adolescent delinquents. The first 21 units opened in 1960. The newest dormitory was added in 1999, and now has 100 residents.
Originally named the Byron Boys Ranch, the facility was renamed after Allen. The Pittsburg resident has been with the ranch since it first opened in 1959.
According to the website, residents are limited to male youth who have been committed by the juvenile court. The facility serves to improve treatment at the local level rather than at the state level. For more info and how to help, call 925-427-8660.
A BIG THANKS!: Tim Calvin values his community so much, he's throwing an appreciation day.
The free event is set from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m. Oct. 13 at the Crossings shopping center at 3365 Deer Valley Road in Antioch.
The area's merchants, along with political leaders and service organizations, will gather for a day of info and goodies.
Calvin is the owner of Delta One Martial Arts. He's co-sponsoring the event with AMAPA 4 Kids after-school program. They will provide free hot dogs, chips, drinks, anti-abduction and bully prevention seminar for kids, a self-defense seminar for adults, ID cards for children, and martial arts demos.
Other participants (most offering goods and special offers) will be Safeway, Wells Fargo, Chase Bank, Deer Valley Chiropractic, Sprint, Cindy's Nails, Hillcrest Uniforms, Mann's Better Home Realty, Jamba Juice, Kiwanis Club of the Delta-Antioch, Jim Frazier, Walter Ruehlig, Mary Rocha and the Antioch Police department.
"October is our month for giving back to the community," Calvin said.
In addition to thanking the community, he hopes to help others. "We're asking the public to donate school supplies for the Antioch Unified School District," he said. "We will collect the supplies and give them to schools the following week." Calvin said this event leads up to the charity martial arts tournament hosted by the AMAPA and Kiwanis Club on Oct. 27 at Antioch High (700 18th St.). That event will include a large raffle for children, and martial arts competitions (including sports martial arts, weapons and kickboxing). Two Raiderettes will present the raffle prizes and awards. Half the proceeds benefit the free after-school program for AHS students, while the other half goes to a scholarship fund for AHS and Deer Valley students.

SAN DIEGO -- The formula for top-ranked Stanford's success in women's soccer can be traced to the Rodin Sculpture Garden on campus.
So says the John Wooden of the sport.
North Carolina's Anson Dorrance said Thursday the Cardinal's rise to the top of the soccer world is because of its academic prestige, and yes, those eerie Rodin originals at the Cantor Arts Center that add an element of stature to the campus.
"We go head-to-head with Stanford in recruiting, and we rarely beat them," said Dorrance, whose team plays Stanford in the College Cup semifinals Friday night at Torero Stadium. The winner will advance to Sunday's title game against either Florida State or Penn State.
But it has taken more than famous French artwork for the reigning champion Cardinal (21-1-1) to reach its fifth consecutive College Cup -- soccer's version of the Final Four.
A senior-heavy team anchored by sturdy defenders Alina Garciamendez and Rachel Quon has given Stanford a strong backbone, if not a bona fide scoring threat such as past Cardinal stars Kelley O'Hara, Christen Press and Teresa Noyola.
Now the Cardinal will face a school it has never defeated in 11 games (0-8-3). The Tar Heels are playing in their 26th Cup and have won 20 of 30 NCAA crowns.
Dorrance, who started Carolina's program in 1979, wishes he had some of those Stanford players.
"This field we are playing is littered with my recruiting failures," said Dorrance, who considered coming to Stanford after guiding the U.S. women's national team to its first World Cup title in 1991.
"It was so tempting," he recalled. "Recruiting there would have been like shooting fish in a barrel."
Despite Stanford's recent success, virtually no one expects any school to duplicate Dorrance's dominance in Chapel Hill from 1982 to 2009.
With better players coming out of high school and the growth of the women's game internationally, the field of competition has expanded to the point where another Carolina-like reign seems improbable.
"I don't think that would ever be replicated," Stanford coach Paul Ratcliffe said Thursday.
By any measure, though, the current Cardinal run has been impressive. Stanford is one of eight schools to reach at least six College Cups. Notre Dame has done it 12 times, Santa Clara 10 times.
"He did something everybody said couldn't be done," Denver coach Jeff Hooker said of Ratcliffe. "He had vision, and he's still going with it."
When surveying the season, Notre Dame's Randy Waldrum thought at least 15 schools had a shot of winning the championship "and nobody would bat an eye."
North Carolina (13-5-3) wasn't at the top of anyone's list. The Tar Heels entered the NCAA tournament as a No. 2 seeded team but reached its first College Cup since defeating Stanford for the national title in 2009.
Dorrance downplayed all of his success by saying Carolina's past is irrelevant to Friday night's game.
"I never had any feeling this streak will go on forever," he said. "All it does is put additional pressure on the players. I never want them to feel that. I want my girls to play with a kind of freedom. I want them to go out there and show how well they can play."
Not to feel sorry for the Tar Heels, who boast some of the country's most promising talent. Four Carolina players have scored seven goals each. U.S. under-20 defender Crystal Dunn has five goals in four tournament games while playing center midfielder.
"It's hard to say the days of Carolina are over when Carolina is sitting in the room with us right now," Penn State coach Erica Walsh said.
Cardinal senior Mariah Nogueira, though, would like to add another notch to Stanford's growing resume at the Tar Heels' expense.
"I'd love to be part of the first team to beat North Carolina," she said.

The health ministry of Brazil recently signed an agreement with US-based Bristol-Myers Squibb to obtain its patented production technology to locally develop the antiretroviral drug atazanavir sulfate. The drug is used, together with others, to treat HIV-infected patients in Brazil.
The process of transferring the drug's production technology will take place until the end of 2016, while domestic production is planned to begin by 2017, according to the country's health ministry. Before the patent for atazanavir (held by Bristol-Myers Squibb) expires by the end of 2017, Brazilians will be trained by experts at the company's USA-based facility on how to produce the drug. The drug will be produced at a Rio de Janeiro-based pharmaceutical plant named Farmanguinhos, operated by Oswaldo Cruz Foundation (Fiocruz).
Starting in 2013, the drug will be distributed nationwide inside locally-produced packaging. Output from the new domestic plant will add one more drug to the locally-produced drug list for HIV-infected patients, totaling up to 11 drugs produced in Brazil from the 20 medications offered at no cost to HIV-infected men and women in Brazil. According to government figures, some 127 million capsules will be produced annually in Brazil by 2017.
Atazanavir is a protease inhibitor. This class of drugs is used to treat or prevent infection by viruses. Atazanavir is administered in combination with two other antiretroviral agents to prevent the risk of developing drug-resistant mutated viruses.
The deal
According to the Oswaldo Cruz Foundation (Fiocruz), the plan is to meet at least 50% of the demand for atazanavir sulfate by 2015. Fiocruz says this deal guarantees that Farmanguinhos will set a final price for the drug that is 5% lower than the current price.
The Brazilian government will not pay for the technology but guarantees purchasing the drug from Bristol-Myers Squibb until the end of the deal in 2017. According to the health ministry's AIDS department, this is the first deal of its kind for developing domestic production of a drug whose patent has not yet expired.
The Brazilian Interdisciplinary Aids Association (ABIA) disagrees with the details of the deal, and has questioned the need for the government to pay such a high price for a drug that will only be produced in 2017. The health ministry, on the other hand, says that prices will drop gradually. Minister Alexandre Padilha has publicly defended new deals with private laboratories in order to maintain the local HIV/Aids treatment program, which cares for approximately 217,000 Brazilians.

FRISCO, Texas – Texas A&M – Corpus Christi Baseball senior Trevor Foss was named the Southland Conference Pitcher of the Week, the league office announced on Monday afternoon. Tyler Boss of Oral Roberts was named the Hitter of the Week, with both honors being voted on by league sports information directors.
Foss set the tone for the Islanders' sweep of McNeese State this past weekend with his Friday night performance. The senior tossed his second complete-game shutout of the season, going 9.0 innings while allowing just three hits and no walks, striking out 10 Cowboy batters. Foss allowed just five balls the entire night to leave the infield as he was in complete control in the shutout victory.
He totaled 10 innings of shutout baseball for the week, pitching a scoreless inning with a strikeout against Texas – Pan American on his scheduled bullpen day. The game against McNeese State was his third double-digit strikeout game of the season.
It is the second time he earned the award this year, receiving his first after opening weekend when he struck out 15 UTPA batters in his other complete-game shutout.
The three-game sweep of McNeese State helped the Islanders clinch a spot in the Southland Conference Tournament with six games to go, including the final three home games of the year next weekend.
The Islanders will recognize Foss and the nine other seniors this weekend when the team plays host to Lamar at 6 p.m. on Friday, 4 p.m. on Saturday and 1 p.m. on Sunday. The Sunday game will be Senior Day for Foss, Stafford Brantley, Eric Weiss, Adam Hoelscher, Tim Keller, Jonathan Gonzales, Franco Pace, Tim Beard, Brad Porras and Seth Horton.

Public-Private Partnerships and Neurological Diseases
Public-Private Partnerships Hold Key to Future Treatment of Neurologic Diseases
08.16.13 | By John Castellani
Despite the great medical advances of the last century, there is still a lot of work to be done when it comes to developing medications and treatments to deal with neurological disorders such as Parkinson's disease. These conditions pose vexing challenges for researchers trying to unlock the secrets that will improve the lives of millions living with the daily challenges that neurological diseases pose.
Public-private partnerships have proven invaluable in in addressing medical challenges, convening researchers from academia and industry in search of root causes of diseases and developing new ways to treat them. Given the huge task of combing through and synthesizing the ever-growing reams of research data available, public-private partnerships are crucial to future medical breakthroughs and that's why we posed this week's Conversations question:
How can we better utilize public-private partnerships to advance translation of science into new medicines for some of our most challenging diseases, such as neurological disorders?
In the coming years, neurological diseases will become an ever greater public health issue. As Amy Comstock Rick, CEO of the Parkinson's Action Network, pointed out in her response to this week's question, the economic burden of Parkinson's disease is at least $14.4 billion per year in the U.S., on top of the personal burden exacted on the 500,000 to 1.5 million Americans living with the disease. And the number of Alzheimer's disease cases is expected to triple in the next 40 years, with annual costs reaching $1.2 trillion by 2050.
One of the great traits of public-private partnerships is that they are all different. These relationships are continually adapting and evolving as necessary, taking advantage of each partner's strengths in pursuit of answers to some of medicine's most challenging issues. Stevin Zorn from Lundbeck illustrated this in his response to the question. As Stevin explains, NIH is very adept at understanding disease and generating background knowledge about the underlying basis of disease, but is limited with taking that information and knowledge and developing effective treatments for diseases. Working together, federal organizations, such as NIH, and biopharmaceutical companies, such as Lundbeck, can lean on each other's expertise to do more than either could accomplish individually.
Public-private partnerships extend beyond the confines of the research and development lab. Randy Rutta of Easter Seals discussed the Easter Seals Brain Health Center as a "nexus of information" that draws on a national network of service providers to expand awareness of how people can use new and emerging brain training regimens to improve cognitive function.
While the answers to some of the more vexing medical challenges won't be easy to find, one thing is certain: we will keep hunting for them. By bringing together the best minds from throughout the health care ecosystem to work collaboratively and share ideas, we get closer and closer to new treatments or cures for neurological diseases.
We see this Conversations forum as one small part of the ongoing dialogue in search of answers. We encourage you to join us by sharing your thoughts in the comment section or becoming a contributor. In the meantime, stay tuned for the next Conversations question.

Hi, I am Danny Batson (Knouse) and I am a lifelong resident of the Chillicothe area. I was born in 1951 and graduated from CHS in 1969. I took over my dad's septic tank business that he founded in 1937. While I have been in every state (except Hawaii and Maine), there is no place like home! I love taking pictures of old and unusual things and sharing them. There is beauty in everything, if we look for it. I have three Facebook pages filled with local pictures that may be of interest: "Where Has Danny Been," Chillicothe Now," and "Danny Batson".
Hi, I am Gary Thomas and I was born just across from Central School in 1942. I graduated from CHS in 1960 and MU in 1964. After two years in Army, I completed a graduate degree at the University of Chicago in 1970. After working in software development for more than 40 years, I retired from Raytheon in 2007. I have an abiding interest in history and in researching past events, places, and people. My latest project is developing a history-based chronology for Livingston County from 1801-2000.
Our family name was Thorp. My mother had taught school before she married my father, and had sung alto in musical programs. After my grandmother died, my mother's father came to live with us. He kept busy splitting kindling for the big kitchen stove and for our big rock fireplace in the living room. Our one and a half story house was located near Pond School.
I was the youngest of three girls. My older sisters, who were 4 and 7 years older than I seemed to know everything. I was not allowed to start to school until I was seven years old. My first teacher was Miss Shipley. Once on the playground all of the students were playing "Crack the Whip" and the little boy on the end fell and ran weed stubble in his eye. That put his eye out.
My mother made her own soap from lye and grease, when the soap was set, she would cut it up and wrap it in paper. We would use it for laundry, baths and shampoo. Wash day meant heating boilers full of water and washing with a wash board and two tubs. We had a long clothes line in the yard, but in winter time we hung ropes on the back porch and dried our clothes.
We raised chickens for our own use. Mother baked bread and churned cream and was always busy cooking or doing farm chores. We had a lot of wild life on our farm. I was especially afraid of snakes. I once saw a hoop snake that rolled like a hoop.
When both of my older sisters were in high school, our family decided to move to Chillicothe. The high school was on the upper floor of the old Central Building. When we moved to town, we had our first telephone. We lived on Herriman Street and had the only phone for several blocks, so the neighbors came in to use it. That is the way we got acquainted with our neighbors.
Papa joined the "Modern Woodmen of America" which was a lodge. That was the way to buy insurance in those days; Mama joined the Royal Neighbors which was the Women's Auxiliary. Papa got to be secretary-treasurer for Modern Woodmen, and mama was secretary-treasurer of Royal Neighbors, so this was one reason they needed a phone. The lodges put on musical programs. I remember singing "in the Good Old Summertime" with a group of children.
My girl friend's father was a conductor on a freight train and he sometimes let my girl friend and me ride the caboose of the freight train to Kansas City. It was an all day trip. He had a very important job keeping track of the freight and knowing which to put off at each town.
I remember the first movie I ever saw. It was Cinderella. It was shown by a man cranking a box. All of the children who got to see the show paid 10 cents for the privilege.
