A story about the Asiana Airlines plane crash incorrectly reported that 17-year-old Jeong Han Kim of Korea had survived the crash, based on an interview with Kim. Officials from the Korean Consulate in San Francisco said Monday that Kim had been in the United States since March and was not a passenger on Asiana Flight 214. Kim's passport was either lost or stolen, an official said, forcing him to seek help Sunday afternoon at the consulate offices, where he was interviewed by this newspaper. In addition, the story also listed Kim's name incorrectly.
SAN FRANCISCO -- The 13-year-old girl gripped the edges of her seat as tightly as she could when the plane crashed hard on the runway. The emergency door behind her business class seat caved in and crushed the bathroom as the plane bounced and tipped. Luggage fell down and books and magazines in the laps of the passengers flew up. Omelets and cinnamon buns from the kitchen shot through the air and rolled down the aisles. Her cherished iPod flew out of her seat.
"I hear people screaming and crying and I heard a lady say, 'Where's my baby?" said the San Carlos teenager, who was sitting next to her mother Saturday morning on Asiana Airlines Flight 214 from Seoul, where she was visiting relatives. "I was really scared, freaked out and I was wondering if I was going to die. I thought it was going to blow before anyone gets out."
Of 307 people aboard, two Chinese girls at the back of the Boeing 777 -- just three years older than she is and on their way to a church summer camp -- didn't get out alive. One was ejected from the back of the plane, one possibly run over by a rescue vehicle. The horrifying deaths occurred in the midst of chaos and panic, fire and smoke. A day after the stunning crash landing, news images of the plane's hulking carcass with gaping holes down the spine, blackened, incinerated seats inside, still raise the question: How did anyone survive at all?
Some passengers pushed their way to emergency doors.
"I don't want to discount that lives were lost, that people were critically injured," San Francisco fire Chief Joanne Hayes-White said during a news conference Sunday. "But it is nothing short of a miracle that we had literally 123 people walk away from this."
Another 182 were taken to hospitals, including dozens with serious injuries. On Sunday, 19 remained hospitalized, six in critical condition, with two of those children, she said. Many had broken bones and burns.
Chairs buckled, spines snapped and a number of passengers from the back of the plane suffered what appeared to be road rash, a condition doctors found hard to explain. When rescuers arrived, they saw some passengers emerge from the water, speculating they might have been dousing themselves.
Many passengers were young, including a group of 70 Chinese students and teachers heading to summer camps, according to authorities in China.
Shi Da, 39, a project manager with a China-based Internet company, and his wife and teenage son were some of the lucky ones. They were near the back of the plane when the tail hit the sea wall. Oxygen masks dropped down.
"I saw some sparkle shining in front of me," Da told The Associated Press. "When I stood up, I saw the tail. There was a big hole and I could see through the hole to the ground. There was a lot of dust in the cabin. I grabbed my bag and rushed out through the tail, through the hole."
Wen Zhang also exited with her family through a hole, this one in the side of the plane, she said, just big enough for two people to squeeze through at a time. She was bruised, her husband's neck was injured and little Xu Qixuan had broken his left leg when the seat in front of him lurched backward.
"We are lucky because we survived," she said of her family.
Eugene Anthony Rah also feels lucky. A music producer, Rah had made the trip countless times. This time, "I just knew we were too low."
"I was holding the chair so hard, just waiting for the crash," he told ABC News.
In the midst of the chaos, he saw a "a tiny girl, a flight attendant."
"She was crying, tears all over, but she was helping, carrying a big man twice as big as her, trying to get him out of the plane," he said. "It was amazing."
After the plane came to rest and the debris that had been flying around the fuselage settled, the 13-year-old San Carlos girl, whose mother didn't want her name used, knew she had to get out fast "because in most movies, it's always on fire right when it lands."
Still, she didn't want to leave without her iPod.
Somehow, in the chaos, she had seen it land and slide under her seat. But her mother was waiting at the emergency door.
"My mom was yelling at me to get out," said the girl. "All you had to do was lift the seat a little bit, the cushions. I was doing that.
"If I lose it, I can't get another one."
She didn't know the girls had died at the back of the plane.

Dozen of new Georgia state laws go into effect after this weekend. They range from taking lottery winnings to pay back child support to new sex offender laws. Here's a look at some of the new laws.
After July 1:
Your lottery winnings could go to back child support if you owe it.
The Ten Commandments will be allowed to hang in Georgia courthouses.
One of the most controversial laws, the new sex offender law, will go into effect. That means Georgia's approximately 11,000 registered sex offenders will have to move if they are living within 1000 feet of a school bus stop. Anyone found in violation can be charged with a felony and sentenced to at least 10 years in jail. (A judge temporarily blocked this law on June 29.)
Another new law imposes penalties for injuring or causing the death of an unborn child when attacking the pregnant mother.
And finally, after more than a decade of trying, advanced-practice nurses finally won their battle to write prescriptions for patients.

Jimbo's Farm 53 Acre Mountain Retreat w Trout Pond
|Per night
|Per week
|$950 - $1,125
James Kalamasz
When one visits the towering mountains of Graham County, they are
reminded of those early days when the Scotch-Irish settlers first came
to the Appalachian M mountains of western North Carolina . Little has
changed; most of Graham County is still a wilderness with over 60%
being a part of the Nantahala National Forest and over 10,000 acres
designated as the Joyce Kilmer Memorial Forest and Joyce Kilmer -Slick Rock
Wilderness Areas . The Memorial Forest was dedicated in 1936 to honor the poet Joyce Kilmer. Here one can hike through a forest of primeval
beauty ... an original growth forest where it takes five or six men to
reach around the girth of one of the giant poplars or hemlocks.
Nestled in an undergrowth of mountain laurel and rhododendron, you will get a picture of times past when only the native Cherokee Indians called these mountains home.
Today, the population of Graham County is less than 8,000. Robbinsville,
the County Seat has less than 800 residents. We are rural in nature and
far from the beaten path. We do not have some of the conveniences one
finds in the metropolitan areas of this country, but we do have an
abundance of those life qualities that city dwellers can only dream
about. We have clean air and pure water as there is no polluting
industry within miles of Graham County. Our mountain streams
feature an abundance of trout. Santeetlah and Snowbird Creeks, both flowing into Lake Santeetlah, have national reputations as being great southern trout fishing streams. The 2,800 acre Lake Santeetlah has held the state
record for both walleyed pike and large mouth bass. Fontana Lake ,
bordering the Great Smokey Mountains National Park , is also well known
to anglers as a great fishery.
Our natural scenery is breath taking. With over 100,000 acres of
National Forest one can ride or hike to mountain tops rising above 5,000
feet in elevation, or enjoy the serene beauty a mountain steam as it
meanders through a rich green valley. Drive to the top of Hooper Bald,
(elevation 5400 feet ), by way of the scenic Cherohala Skyway for
inspiring vistas of the place we call home. Or visit the nearby
Nantahala Gorge where whitewater sports abound.
As if our beautiful mountain environment was not enough, we have been
blessed to have the Gem of the Smokies at our doorstep, Lake
Santeetlah. Santeetlah has approximately 80 miles of shoreline of which 80%
is a part of the Nantahala National Forest . This 2800 acre mountain lake was
constructed in 1928 and is surrounded by nature at her best. Water
levels on Santeetlah are regulated year round for recreation with winter
levels lowered a maximum of only five feet. With so much of the
shoreline being within the boundary of the National Forest, this lake
will never be crowded. Only a few will be fortunate enough to be
property owners on this beautiful lake. If fishing, boating, skiing, or
just drifting around on a pontoon boat appeals to you, you will love
Lake Santeetlah , a premi''' re location in the southeast for resort home
ownership and summer vacations.
To the north, Graham County is bordered by the Great Smoky Mountains
National Forest . Our western boundary is the Cherokee National Forest
in Tennessee . To our east is the Nantahala River and Nantahala National
Forest. T o the south lies the Snowbird Mountains of the Nantahala
National Forest . We are about a 2.5 hour drive North of Atlanta; about
1.5 hours South of Knoxville; and about 1.5 hours West of Asheville.
Yes, we are off the beaten path. As a matter of fact, because of our
mountain terrain, commercial traffic is routed around Graham County .
Yet the rugged Appalachian Trail runs directly through the middle of our
county. These facts give you an idea of what we believe to be important.
This is a place where the heritage of the Cherokee and early Scotch-Irish settlers runs deep.
Visit our towering mountains, original growth forest, deep green valleys
& and use the crystal clear lakes and streams of Smoky Mountain Country.
Build for yourself a mountainside villa or a lakefront chalet. It can
all be yours! Enjoy it with your family and above all else protect it;
for this is our heritage, and a wonderful legacy for future
All the Best. Jim Kalamasz

Hi Jim,
Wanted to send you a note about how much we enjoyed your farm! You truly
have a beautiful, peaceful place, and we had a much needed relaxing week!
The girls slept on the downstairs floor with us in the bedroom. This kept
them from waking up too much at night and from worrying about that closet!!
(Brenna got stuck in last year)
Our son, Connor, made the fire every morning and talked about how he thought
about making us breakfast (even though it never happened until Mom got up
and helped!)
Fishing was great, but Connor had more trouble getting the fish off the hook
with the single hook verses the lure he used with 3 hooks.....seems the fish
were swallowing the single hooks, while the 3 hooker snagged there mouth
instead. (I'm not a fisherman so I wouldn't know the first thing about
Connor also had fun playing darts and reading in his spare time.
Girls fed the birds, stuck their feet in the creek, did some nature hikes
and fished with sticks.
I forgot to move the wooden horse back to it's spot for wood chopping. The
girls used it for an easel for art one day. And I think I left some take
out food in fridge. Sorry, I get so many distractions from kids when
packing up the car.
Weather was strange, but we didn't care. Kids loved the snow first day. I
should have gotten a picture of them fishing in the snow storm! Our last
day we were awaked by an extremely loud clap of thunder....my youngest will
probably remember that as the most memorable part of this trip (atleast it's
better than being locked in upstairs closet!)
Anyway, thanks again and take care till next time.
Theresa McCaffrey
Hi Jim!
Hope you had a great New Year! I've been so busy at work since
our vacation that I can't get the time to send you a decent email!
Last year was one of our favorite vacations ever! We meant to
send you pictures and haven't got around to it. We may try to come up a
little earlier this year. It was 95 degrees the week we were at the
farm. However, the Miata rally was in Robbinsville that week and I just
happen to own one, so we're trying to decide. Anyway, it was great to
hear from you! Jimbo's Farm is our "wall paper" at work and at home.
Give our love to Carolyn and Marie! They were great!
Talk to you soon!
Evelyn McMillan
Just wanted to tell you thanks for a great week of totally getting away from "it all."
The farm was everything it should be. I tried to call you and Carolyn Saturday before we left at just after 9 A.M. Your phone just rang and we left a message at Carolyn's. We left the place like we found it. Keys on the table and the one door unlocked. I did shut off the pilot light and gas to the gas logs in the bedroom. Terminex came by one day and an older gentleman showed up to cut the grass on Wednesday or Thursday. We saw the gameroom, but ended up not ever getting around to using it. Hiked up and down the trails a lot. Did some fishing. The catch and release was a blast. Kay caught a Goldie on Thursday. Stunning. It wasn't the great big one but still big. The geese pretty much stayed at the pond. Saw one snake at a distance. Neither saw nor heard coyotes. We brought along a Sirius radio so that was what we listened to the whole time. Kay thinks the only way to improve the place would be to add a hot tub on the front porch. (She really wanted me to put that in.) I would like to suggest making it possible to pay by card. Again, it was all you said and more. We will refer you to our friends.
Steve and Kay Dexter
Hi Jim,
Well, we just got home from North Carolina. We drove over to Charlotte yesterday morning, spent the evening with friends, and had intended to drive home half way today and half way tomorrow, but decided to do it in one day.
We had a wonderful time at the farm. It's a great place to relax and unwind. The scenic drives in and around the area were beautiful. We even saw some snow up on the Skyway.
The temperatures were so mild, it was amazing and that allowed us to take drives that we probably wouldn't have been able to maneuver if there had been ice and snow at lower elevations.
Thanks again.
Hey Jim,
We really had a blessed time. The Labor Day bash was wonderful but then the peace of the farm was healing. We saw all kinds of critters we hadn't seen in previous years. A heron stood for a long time where we feed the fish now. He also swooped down on the pond while we sat and watched. The kingfishers were diving and noisy for about an hr. The butterflies were tremendous! Stephen and Dad even saw a turkey.
Thanks again for the extra day. God bless you.
We've arrived safely home, and I wanted to thank you for allowing us to stay at your place.
For the third time, it was paradise and a perfect vacation. I reckon that in the future, when it's vacation time, it's your place we'll return to.
Take the best care of yourself, and stay in touch. You'll be hearing from us again.
Semper Fi,
Jim and Lacey

CX WORLD CHAMPIONSHIPS: Treviso, Italy, Sunday, January 27, 2008
It is quite a surreal experience to be riding in the world championships as part of team USA. It is a huge event with fans from every country. Definitely a venue to take pride in your country and represent. As a team, except for Katie, who couldn't ride, we rode to the venue from the hotel at 9 a.m. and did a lap. The course was in excellent condition in the morning, still frozen and totally fast. That would all change by our start time at 11 a.m. I got my tire pressure dialed in, had the mechanic insist on replacing my brake cable on my pit bike, and sat on the trainer to get a good warm up in. The warm up must have been good, because the best part of my race was my start. My line up was 24th, so the last person in the third row, but the grid in Europe is more like a mess of riders pushing in where they can. I was smart and went to the right hand side. I had a great start and found myself in the top 5 in the first few minutes of the race and then in the chase group that formed of 12 people. That didn't last long. I had my first crash of many. No matter what tires I had or what pressure I had, I couldn't seem to keep the bike upright and the funny thing is I crashed on the same corner over and over again. And it couldn't have been in a worse spot. Always right before where all the Cross Crusaders were standing. But at least they were encouraging and cheered me on anyways.
The race was fun, despite my lack of performance. It was an amazing experience and one that I will never forget. Of course I wish I could have rode better, because my legs felt great, but it is over. I have had an amazing season and one to build on. I am looking forward to pursuing a spot on the team again next year! Hoogerheide here I come!

Great job in 2007/2008 on home and foreign soil.
The whole Portland crew that headed to Treviso sure was lucky to see some great racing, I really am going to kill Todd when he gets back!

#2 UCLA Too Much for #26 Pepperdine
Feb. 19, 2014
LOS ANGELES – Despite a tough battle in singles, the #26 Pepperdine women's tennis team fell to a strong #2-ranked UCLA, 7-0 on Wednesday afternoon at the Los Angeles Tennis Center.
With the loss, the Waves fall to 4-2 on the year while UCLA, runners up at the ITA National Team Indoor Championship, improves to 9-1
The Bruins took control early in doubles and with it the 1-0 advantage heading into singles.
The momentum continued to roll in UCLA's favor, and the home squad took a 3-0 lead following wins courtesy of Kaitlin Ray and Chanelle Van Nguyen.
Yuki Chiang (Ojai, Calif./Campbell Hall HS) went toe-to-toe with #44 Catherine Harrison in a freshmen battle on court five, but ultimately fell by single break in both sets, 7-5, 6-4.
Although the Waves lost the team battle, Lorraine Guillermo (Walnut, Calif./Rowland HS), Ale Granillo (Pachuca, Mexico/Instituto Hidalgo), Michaela Capannolo (Melbourne, Australia/Genazzano FCJ College) continued to give everything they had in their respective matches.
Going up against the #2-ranked singles player in the country, Guillermo rallied back from a loss in the opening frame vs. Robin Anderson to break late and hold for the 7-5 triumph in set two. The 10-point tiebreaker went in favor of Anderson, 10-7.
Anderson now holds a 2-1 record vs. #23 Guillermo in collegiate play. The Wave won last seasons' meeting in dual action in two sets, while both of Anderson's wins have come in three sets.
Capannolo was narrowly edged out in the tiebreaker by #27 Kyle McPhillips in the opening frame, but sent the match to a third set after winning the second 6-2. After falling behind 3-1, Capannolo rallied to take a 4-3 lead. McPhillips got back on track, however, and a late push sent her to the 6-4 win.
Granillo's match vs. #22 Jennifer Brady went the distance, and was decided in the tiebreaker after the match was tied 6-6 in the third. Although Granillo scored on back-to-back points to even the tally at 5-5, Brady held on for the 7-5 win to secure the sweep for UCLA.
Pepperdine makes their first out-of-state road trip of the season, paying a visit to Vanderbilt on Sunday, followed by a dual at Memphis on Tuesday.

Engineering license for Environmental Engineering
I want to enter environmental engineering, but I want to know if it involves mechanical and electronic things. And is the salary good enough? And do I have to have an engineering license??What is the benefit of having one???
posted by

Answer 1 by
Kristin Malosh
Shamma, All engineering disciplines require studying the fundamentals of engineering, which includes mechanics and electronics. However, these are not the focus of an environmental engineering degree. I found that classes like Statics and Electrical Engineering were fun because there were so many different engineering majors all in the same class. The salary for Environmental Engineers is not typically on the high end of the salary range, but I would definitely say it is good enough. Many environmental engineers do obtain a Professional Engineering (PE) license. Depending upon what type of job you are interested, a PE license may be a benefit. I started my career as an environmental consultant and used my PE license to enhance my credentials. For example, some state environmental regulations require a PE to certify contingency plans for industrial facilities. I know environmental engineers in a variety of careers – you could work for the US EPA, you could own your own environmental consulting business, you could be an environmental manager at an airline, or an operations manager at a steel mill. The doors are open for Environmental Engineers! I hope this helps- good luck! Kristin
Answer 2 by
Ms. Peggy Layne
I agree with Kristin's answers to this question. Environmental engineers can work in a variety of industries and a variety of technical areas, from designing air pollution control equipment (which may require knowledge of electrical and mechanical engineering concepts, as well as principles from chemical engineering) to building water and wastewater treatment plants, to investigating properties for contamination. Salaries vary depending on the industry, and of course experience, and are not as high as some other engineering disciplines but are definitely good professional salaries. A professional engineering license is a good credential to have, because you never know where your career will lead you. It demonstrates both your technical knowledge and your commitment to the profession.

wow, someone gave me a vhs back in the 90s with this show, an eye for an eye show, and a kingpin show. hadn't seen it in ages.
I had a copy of this on VHS as well which I got in like 91, but the quality was so bad, I barely watched it. Nice to finally get to enjoy 20+ years later.
Killer! My friend taped this show along with pretty much every Boston show from this era. This show took place at a club called Bunratty's. Walter on vox only, great show!
Wow…..cool to see this footage again. I had a copy also from probably the same kid Mike mentioned. He had every Boston show as well as Anthrax shows. HUGE video collection. This was a really great Quicksand gig at Bunratty's. They killed it. Played some rare tunes and a cool song that became an instrumental on their LP. That's me stage diving during the first song (Emission) with the black shirt on over the white long sleeve LOLOL …crazy to see this again! Bunratty's was the shit! Good shows every week. Shelter, Burn, Insted, Bad Trip, Eye for an Eye, etc…unfortunately the club turned into some frat college shithead bar. Shows here were a blast. Tons of kids. Good sound. Good stage. Alley on the side to hang and chill in. Saw Quicksand earlier this same year at The Anthrax, but this show was superior. They really were evolving as a band. Check out Porcell on the stage next to Capones amp with the moppy hair taking flicks! This was when everyone started growing their hair, wearing baggy Stussy shit and getting metal/progressive. The 90's were kicking in. Fun memories!
I have an NTSC VHS tape of this show, filmed from another angle, and much better quality. I don't have a VHS player anymore so I can't convert it right now. But does the other video angle ring a bell to anyone?

Reviewer: Palmer1994, 35-44 Female on Treatment for less than 1 month (Caregiver)
Ease of Use
The doctor did not culture the rash on my daughter's chin but simply prescribed Bactroban. She thought maybe it was Impetigo or some sort of bacterial rash. Well, after 7 days of use it was worse than when I was applying Caladryl on it. Today, I went back to the doctor and asked them to culture the rash. They did and also prescribed Augmentin to see if that might help. I hope the culture shows ... Show Full Comment

Ease of Use
I was using this drug after having my large toe nail removed due to a fungus. After using Bactroban for 3 days I began to experience a burning sensation after appling the med. My toe was not improving and I was having more pain with the med than without. So after 9 days of suffering I decided to stop using Bactroban. My toe is now getting better.

My 23 month old daughter's dermatologist prescribed this to help clear up her "open" areas from her severe eczema. There has been no improvement and actually since yesterday I think her skin is worse.

This cream was prescribed for me for what my doctor thought was MERSA. The culture tests showed it wasn't, but I wasn't told what it did show. I have been using it for six days & have seen NO improvement.

Rolling out a new me
I started out this blog with a couple of clear ideas in mind – to use it as a journal, to bring people up-to-date and develop my writing skills, amongst other things.
Now, because of people commenting and reading, I feel this pressure whenever I type out a post. And I know, it's like 3 people reading this blog, but I still have this pressure to put out only my best.
I'm not very happy with that, and am wondering on how to face this new fear in my head.
Having said that, I'm back from India. The trip was one the best I've had in a long time. I presented at a conference at IIT Guwahati. I ran my first full marathon. And I networked like crazy.
Hopefully, there is a lot of hope for me to visit next year again, if not sooner.
A lot of life changing things happened on this trip. The result of which is that I have a broad theme for this year. Last year was solely focussed towards my personal life – relationships, running, health, diet, books etc. This year, it's my professional life that I'm focussing on. I've already started making changes and setting up new habits, goals and loggers for feedback. I've been waking up at 7 am for the last 10 days and have been working out. I get to work early and get started.
Also, I'm in a relationship now. Following my new resolutions, I'll talk about her and my learnings in the coming posts.
It's a brand new year. Have you set your goals?
P.S. – The pic is me at the Complex Fluids Symposium at IIT Guwahati, 6th January 2012

The eventual boys basketball champion of the West Bay Athletic League is likely to have to dig deep to earn frenetic victories. Sacred Heart Prep-Atherton did just that Friday night, rallying for a 56-52 overtime win over host Pinewood-Los Altos Hills in front of a packed house.
The Gators' James McLean hit a follow shot with 11.5 seconds left in regulation, sending the game into overtime tied 47-47. Pinewood's Ryan Brice missed a 12-foot baseline jumper with 3 seconds to go that would have won the game.
SHP (8-4, 4-0 WBAL) rests in first place, along with Menlo School-Atherton, pending the Knights' result Friday with Woodside Priory-Portola Valley. Pinewood (11-3, 3-1 WBAL) dropped a game back in the race.
Pinewood coach Mani Messy lamented letting a 31-16 first-half lead slip away.
"We had too many breakdowns, offensively and defensively," Messy said. "We take pride in keeping mental focus. We let the mental aspect of the game fall apart and Sacred Heart Prep took advantage. We'll find a way to grow from it."
"Pinewood did a great job in their zone and we didn't hit shots early," SHP coach Tony Martinelli said. "Once we started taking it to the basket, it opened up the perimeter more for us."
The Panthers came out smoking from beyond the arc in the first period. Guard Greg Naumann hit three 3-pointers, while Jordan Riches hit a pair of treys for an 18-6 first-quarter lead. Naumann, though, picked up two quick fouls, sitting out the second quarter, the two teams even in the period at 13 points apiece.
The game got bizarre in the third period when Andrew Daschbach grabbed a defensive board for the Gators. Daschbach tried to clear some space and a Pinewood player took exception, getting a technical for taunting with 6:10 left in the period. McLean missed the front end, but made the second, the Gators down 11 points.
Naumann was fouled on a 3-point try, then made two of three free throws, his final points of the night, ending with 11.
The Gators started to chip away, getting within 39-31 on a layin by McLean, who had 10 points. Connor Moses inbounded the ball to Corbin Koch for a layin and SHP trailed 39-33.
Sophomore Mason Randall drilled a 3-pointer to start the fourth period and Pinewood's lead was 40-36. A 3-pointer by Moses, another sophomore playing pressure minutes, and the Panthers' lead was one. And when Koch scored on a putback, the game was knotted 41-41. Koch had a game-high 17 points.
Pinewood's Nathan Beak hit a pair of free throws with 2:01 to play, giving the Panthers a 47-44 lead. It looked real good for the Panthers when David Bodine drew a charging call on Koch with 37 seconds to play in regulation, much to the dismay of Gators fans.
Sacred Heart Prep started the four-minute overtime period with a nice pass from Daschbach to Koch underneath for a deuce and a two-point lead. Daschbach scored inside while being fouled, then made the free throw and the Gators led 52-47 with 2:28 remaining in overtime.
Brice, who had 15 points, got a runner to go down to get the Panthers within three points. And when Koch fouled out with 1:47 left in OT, the Panthers appeared to have new life.
With SHP fans chanting "We got Moses!", Moses drained two free throws with 39 seconds left. Riches then hit two free throws for Pinewood's final points of the evening.
It was a physical game with Ryan Galvin fouling out for the Gators, joining Koch on the bench. Naumann fouled out for the Panthers with 4:11 to play in regulation.
"With Naumann fouling out early, it made it tough on Pinewood to bring the ball up against our press," Martinelli said. "Our press started working better with him out and that changed the game."
Daschbach had just six points, but owned the boards with 11 rebounds, a key factor.
"Daschbach is a winner," Martinelli said. "He does everything the right way, gives you everything he has and he never asks questions. You tell him what to do and he does it. Him on the back end makes everything better. He can guard anyone."
The teams combined to shoot 55 free-throw attempts, making 33. Pinewood was just 13-of-24 from the line on its home floor.
Martinelli was happy to escape with the win in a pressure-packed environment.
"Playing here is always tough," Martinelli said. "If you pull it out, you move on to the next one, even if it's ugly. We're moving in the right direction."
Sacred Heart Prep 6 13 14 14 9 -- 56
Pinewood 18 13 8 8 5 -- 52

Another 30% Upside For Equities?
American equities could well advance another 30% even though they're already seriously overvalued–dragging other markets higher with them–argued Jeremy Grantham, a legendary value investor and co-founder of fund firm GMO, in his latest quarterly letter to investors:
"My personal guess is that the U.S. market, especially the non-blue chips, will work its way higher, perhaps by 20% to 30% in the next year or, more likely, two years, with the rest of the world including emerging market equities covering even more ground in at least a partial catch-up. And then we will have the third in the series of serious market busts since 1999 and presumably Greenspan, Bernanke, Yellen, et al. will rest happy, for surely they must expect something like this outcome given their experience."
Mr. Grantham's argument boils down to a view that the Federal Reserve's enduring dovishness will keep inflating asset prices generally and equities in particular.
But there are also bulls ready with arguments for why equities don't just need to rely on the sort of market psychology that's driven Bitcoin higher and higher.
Mr. Grantham's GMO colleague Ben Inker figures the S&P 500 is currently a bit more than 60% above its fair value of 1100 based on analysis of replacement costs and on long run equilibrium between return on capital and cost of capital. The GMO estimate isn't far from another widely-cited metric, Yale economist Robert Shiller's ratio of prices to earnings smoothed over a ten-year cycle, which suggests the market is currently a little more than 50% overvalued.
Is it a bubble? Mr. Grantham doesn't think so, or at least not yet. The mass psychosis where panic of missing out sends small investors flooding into the market isn't there yet.
Carl Icahn, the billionaire investor, thinks that the market could see a big drop a lot sooner given that low interest rates aren't generating the profit growth that they have done during recent years.
But there are others with strong arguments for why U.S. equities aren't overpriced. The markets blogger Macro Man runs through many of them in a recent post a few of which are highlighted here:
-The equity risk premium is historically high relative to 30-year bond yields and no, 30-year bond yields aren't particularly low relative to long-run expected nominal GDP growth.
-Notwithstanding huge amounts of Fed liquidity, there hasn't been a flood of retail money into equities, indeed there have been net outflows since the financial crisis.
-Earnings as a percentage of GDP might look high, but a lot of those come from abroad. Domestically-generated earnings aren't at extreme levels.
-Main Street hasn't performed as well as Wall Street as firms have taken a bigger slice of the economic pie, but this process has been happening for three decades or more. It's been driven by technological change and isn't likely to be reversed anytime soon–George Mason University professor Tyler Cowen details the developments in his books The Great Stagnation and Average is Over.
-Historically, as economies get rich the returns on capital fall, which explains why the U.S.'s price-to-earnings ratio has trended up during the past century and why current cyclically-adjusted valuations aren't hugely out of whack.
Are the bull cases any more convincing than they were in 2000 or 2007? Not for people like fund manager John Hussman of Hussman Fund or strategist Albert Edwards at Societe Generale, who continue to make bearish calls on the basis of extreme valuations and historical trends.
On the other hand, bulls might point out that it's not the bubbles that were anomalous but the crashes. A new global economic structure–and who could argue that some things haven't changed fundamentally given China's renaissance, globalization and the end of communism–implies paradigm shifts.
What seems pretty clear is central banks have created conditions for other bubbles to form, if they haven't already. And that they look in no mood to put a halt to asset market appreciation is as good a reason as any to expect Mr. Grantham's 30% upside could yet be achieved, whether markets are fairly valued, overpriced or even cheap.

Sarcomas of Specific Organs - Latest Research [1]
ON THIS PAGE: You will read about the scientific research being done now to learn more about sarcoma and how to treat them. To see other pages, use the menu on the side of your screen.
Doctors are working to learn more about sarcoma, ways to prevent them, how to best treat these diseases, and how to provide the best care to people diagnosed with either disease. The following areas of research may include new options for patients through clinical trials [3]. Always talk with your doctor about the diagnostic and treatment options best for you.
Targeted therapy. As described in the Treatment Options [4] section, targeted therapy is a treatment that targets the tumor's specific genes, proteins, or the tissue environment that contributes to tumor growth and survival. Clinical trials led to the approval of one new targeted drug, pazopanib, and clinical trials of other drugs that work in different ways to starve tumors of their blood supply are underway.
Immunotherapy. Immunotherapy, also called biologic therapy, is designed to boost the body's existing defenses to fight the cancer. It uses materials made either by the body or in a laboratory to improve, target, or restore immune system function. Immunotherapy is being researched as a treatment option for many types of sarcoma. Learn more about immunotherapy [5].
Chemotherapy. New types of chemotherapy are being researched for the treatment of sarcoma. Many of these drugs focus on ways to treat the sarcoma that have never been tested before, providing hope that these new approaches can succeed where previous drugs have failed.
Supportive care. Clinical trials are underway to find better ways of reducing symptoms and side effects of current sarcoma treatments in order to improve patients' comfort and quality of life.
To find clinical trials specific to your diagnosis, talk with your doctor or search online clinical trial databases now [6]. Please note this link will take you outside of this guide.

Canadiens trim roster by eight
Carey Price will head back to his junior squad, while Kyle Chipchura will head to Hamilton for his first full season with the Bulldogs.
MONTREAL - Canadiens GM Bob Gainey announced Wednesday that seven players have been assigned to the Hamilton Bulldogs of the American Hockey League. The club also returned goaltender Carey Price to the Tri-City Americans of the Western Hockey League.
Twenty-nine (29) players are still at training camp, including four injured players (Francis Bouillon, Jean-Philippe Côtéé, Mikhail Grabovski, Sheldon Souray).
The seven players who will report to Hamilton are; goaltender Yann Danis, forwards Maxim Lapierre, Jonathan Ferland, Corey Locke, Ajay Baines and Kyle Chipchura, as well as defenseman Danny Groulx. The Bulldogs opened their training camp on September 23 in Hamilton.

Nobody expected this to be a great season for the Wolverines (except for a few misguided voters who had them ranked 25th in the preseason polls). But I don't think anyone expected 3-9, the worst season in school history. So what went wrong? Let's run through the games first.
The offense looked decent as we put 10 points on the board right away. Then Utah took over. A furious second half rally came up short, as Steven Threat's two-point conversion pass fell incomplete. Utah won 25-23.
I don't remember much about this one except that Miami's receivers dropped some crucial passes and a late Brandon Minor TD run sealed a 16-6 victory.
Notre Dame
Six turnovers pretty much doomed this one. Two fumbles in the first 5 minutes allowed ND to go up 14-0. Kevin Grady's third quarter fumble at the Irish 5 killed us. A TD there would have made it 28-24. Instead we lost 35-17.
The high-water mark of the season. We were down 19-0 at halftime and came storming back to win 27-25. In case anyone hasn't figured it out by now, Brett Beilema is a lousy coach. I really wanted to see the Badgers lose to Cal Poly last Saturday.
We were up 17-3 in the first quarter and I was certain we'd turned the corner. The offense looked great, the defense was playing well. Then Juice Williams exploded and we got hammered 45-20. This game really exposed the terrible linebacker and safety play that would plague us the rest of the year.
The less said, the better. K.C. Lopata missed a chip-shot FG that would have sent the game into OT. It never should have come down to that. We lost 13-10.
Penn State
We again jumped out to a quick lead. It was 17-7 after the first quarter and we still had a 17-14 lead at halftime. Then Penn State woke up, adjusted to the changes we'd made in the running game, and rattled off 32 straight to beat us 46-17.
Michigan State
A gift TD from the refs, a coupled missed FGs by Sparty and inspired play from Brandon Graham and Brandon Minor weren't enough. State wins their first game in Ann Arbor since 1990 and their first legitimate win in the series since 1999, 35-21.
After Toledo, this was the most aggravating loss of the year. Purdue's starting QB had just been moved from RB three weeks earlier. Of course, he gashed us for 48 points. A well-timed fake punt and a beautiful hook & ladder play put the Boilers over the top. We wasted what was by far our best offensive performance of the year, losing 48-42.
Finally, a win. Our defense was nearly perfect, giving up no first downs until the game was out of hand. Nick Sheridan had his one and only solid performance of the year on the way to a 29-6 win.
So much for Nick Sheridan and "solid performance." He was bad. The entire offense was bad. Northwestern got their TDs on three big plays, two of them on 3rd and long. Steven Threet relieved Sheridan in the second half, threw a killer interception in the end zone, and got injured. We lose 21-14.
Ohio State
Our defense didn't play as badly as the score might indicate. OSU made several huge plays and I don't think the team recovered mentally from the two play, 91 yard drive in the third quarter. The final was 42-7 but it easily could have been a lot worse had our defensive line not terrorized Terrelle Pryor.
So what worked this season? Here's what I liked.
- Brandon Graham: An absolute beast. He finished with double-digit sacks and proved to be nearly unblockable without a double-team. He says he's coming back for his senior year, which is the best thing that's happened to the program all season.
- Brandon Minor: He took the starting job from Sam McGuffie in midseason and turned out to be the only offense we had after Threet went down. Minor has deceptive speed, breaks tackles and seems to have solved his fumbling problems. He should be the starter headed into next year.
- Jonas Mouton: I'm not sure why he didn't start the Utah game, but he took over quickly after Marrell Evans turned out to be a disaster. Mouton still has a tendency to overrun plays, but he's fast and he actually does a good job against the run for as small as he is. He'll be a starter for the next two years.
Mike Martin: He played quite a bit as part of a three-man rotation at DT and made a few plays. He seemed to hit the wall late in the season. Martin showed some good quickness and definitely seemed stronger as a pass-rusher than a run-stopper. He'll start by default next year, with Terrance Taylor and Will Johnson graduating.
Here's what I liked, but with reservations:
- Martavious Odoms: He made some big plays, but he killed us a few times, especially at the end of the year. A perfect example is the Purdue game, where he returned a punt for a TD... and then fumbled the next punt, setting up Purdue for their first TD. He also fumbled a punt against Northwestern, setting up their first TD and he fumbled one against Ohio State, denying us a chance to start a drive in Buckeye territory. That said, he has good speed, he can make guys miss and he's surprisingly tough for his size.
- Michael Shaw: Great speed, but he doesn't know how to set up his blocks yet. He'll probably back up Minor next year but the coaches need to find a way to get him a few touches every game with an eye towards a starting job in 2010.
Here are a few things I didn't like:
- Stevie Brown: I lost track of how many long TDs we gave up that ended with Stevie Brown chasing a member of the opposing team into the end zone. That he held onto the starting safety job all year speaks volumes about the depth at that position.
- Obi Ezeh: Too slow to react to running plays and pretty bad in coverage. He's still just a sophomore, so there is hope for the next two years.
- The QBs: I doubt we'll see Nick Sheridan at all next year, except at the end of blowouts. Steven Threet will go into practice as the starter, but Tate Forcier and Shavodrick Beaver will challenge him. Internets chatter indicates Forcier is most likely to win the starting job by the fall, but Beaver is probably the better runner.
- The Offensive Line: The line's struggles can be traced back to off-season attrition. Jake Long graduated, Alex Mitchell and Jeremy Ciulla quit rather than play as fifth-year seniors, Justin Boren whined and cried about the new conditioning program before transferring to Ohio State and Corey Zirbel had a career-ending injury in the preseason. The good news is that six freshmen red-shirted this year and at least two of them will challenge for starting jobs next year, which I'll look ahead to tomorrow.

My son loved it! I loved the real button up feature and the material was perfect. If it was warm he could wear it alone. It was chilly so he wore a t-shirt and sweats under it and it was perfect! It was also shipped very fast!

Sanofi's vaccines division this week received FDA supplemental biologics license application (sBLA) approval for licensure of its four-strain influenza vaccine, Fluzone Quadrivalent. Sanofi Pasteur said this newest addition to its Fluzone range is the first and only four-strain influenza vaccine option for patients as young as six months.
The firm added that its Fluzone Quadrivalent vaccine includes two A strains and two B strains, and that the 2013 flu season will be the first in which quadrivalent influenza vaccines will be available in the U.S.
Sanofi said that since the 2001–2002 flu season, two distinct influenza B types have been co-circulating with varying prevalence, making the dominant strain difficult to predict. "Even in years where the correct B lineage strain was selected for the vaccine, some influenza disease was caused by the B lineage omitted from the vaccine likely reducing the overall vaccine effectiveness against circulating influenza viruses," the firm added.
Influenza B is a common cause of influenza-related morbidity and mortality in children and has been associated with additional complications, including pneumonia and other respiratory illnesses.
"Protection against the type B flu strain may be an especially important factor that healthcare providers consider when immunizing children since influenza B causes a substantial number of illnesses, hospitalizations, and deaths in the pediatric population," Sanofi Pasteur's David Greenberg, M.D., vp U.S. Scientific and Medical Affairs, said in a statement.

Levine & Shern on Freedom Formula
Following the official announcement of Bryan Singer's commitment to produce the film adaptation of Radical Comics' Freedom Formula , we sat down with Barry Levine, President and Publisher of Radical Publishing to discuss that project and the future of Radical.Newsarama: First off Barry - Bryan Singer and . How did those worlds meet? Barry Levine: Bryan's a visionary filmmaker and a brilliant storyteller. My mission at Radical is to work with the best creators in the industry and Bryan's on anyone's shortlist. We met with Bryan (Singer) and Alex Garcia at Bad Hat Harry Productions and they were instantly moved by Freedom Formula and wanted to be on board. Myself and the rest of the Radical team couldn't have been happier.
