The best tournament could be the Big East and UofL is a major reason why.

First of all, thank you for reading this. And thanks to all of you who took the time this week to say hello and tell me you enjoyed my columns. What a blessing when I meet someone for the first time or pass someone in the grocery store and they say, "Hey, aren't you the guy that writes that column?" or, "I liked your column the other day." So thanks for reading and thanks for taking the time to talk to me about it.
Two people, aside from my parents, earn credit for the way I've turned out as a young adult — and they're probably not two people you'd expect.
Who are those people? My best friend's father and a former youth pastor/current friend.
As a child, I was very shy and perfectly content huddling up in a corner and watching whatever events were before me unfold. At birthday parties or general gatherings of friends and family, I was much more the observer than the participant.
What has a newspaper given you this week? Some useful information about your local government? A weather report, crossword puzzle, or a heartwarming story about triumph over tragedy? Perhaps a newspaper has supplied a great recipe idea or a fun fact about your community. Hopefully it has even helped spur you to action or helped you make a difficult decision about an issue affecting your community.
If a newspaper can give its adult readers all of those things, imagine the learning opportunities it could give a student in our local schools.

A wonderful season came to a disappointing end Tuesday night for the Spencer County Bears as they fell to Oldham County 70-50 in the finals of the Eighth Region Tournament in New Castle.
The Spencer County Courthouse has seen its share of uninvited guests recently — at least that's what the empty pizza boxes found after hours would suggest.
During Monday morning's fiscal court meeting, Judge-Executive Bill Karrer told magistrates about the apparent after hours guests.
"It seems like we have gremlins in our courthouse," Karrer said.
Karrer said it seems like a group of teenagers might be sneaking into the courthouse just before it closes and having a party of sorts.

Yesterday, July 20th, I went to Pittsburgh to visit the Community College of Beaver County. My dad and I flew Airtran for just $108 each r/t! It's been double that for as long as I can remember. Anyway, in the morning, we were on FL1521, departing at 0700 and arriving at 0820 on a 717-200. This was my first trip on the Boeing 717. We were seated in 15A and 15C. After pushing back from gate F13 at 0652, we taxied down Echo, west on Sierra, and onto 27L for takeoff. The takeoff roll was very quick, and I saw out the window that we were off the ground with 6000 feet to go, so we used up about 5000 feet to get airborne. Not bad! We made a slight left turn for noise abatement, and then climbed to our cruise alt. at FL220. We descended to PIT 20 min. later and landed on RWY 10R. Thanks to Captain Dean Matthews and First Officer Joel Kriesher for letting me visit up front and get a picture.
Later, we returned to PIT for our 1915 departure on the same 717, this time flown by Capt. Ken Edwards and F/O Kelly Davis. We were scheduled to arrive at PHL at 2030. Well, the plane was coming from PHL, and didn't arrive at the gate until 1915, so we boarded at 1945 and took off at 2015. After departing runway 28R after at 13 min. ground hold, we turned right to about 090 heading, climbed at little, and then did a giant 360 degree left turn, which I am assuming was for killing time due to other air traffic. We descended into PHL over Harrisburg, and landed on RWY 9R and taxied to the gate. Now I can add the 717 to my list of been-on-Boeings.
Now I need to find a 707!
Thank you AirTran for the "low fare liberation" of Pennsylvania!

1954 Flying Car On Sale for $975,000, Needs Work
Driver-pilots who are tired of waiting for the Federal Aviation Administration to clear the Terrafugia Transition flying car for sale have at least one alternative. Another car that can drive to the airport, spread wings and take off is available.
A 1954 Aerocar is for sale through Courtesy Aircraft, a Rockford, Ill., seller of antique and collectible airplanes. Like the coming Terrafugia vehicle, the Aerocar was designed to address the question that has plagued many private pilots: How to get to and from the airport?
Unlike the modern Transition, which has folding wings that deploy electrically, the Aerocar tows its wings and tail section on a trailer. The owner has to assemble the craft when ready to fly. Still, the seller said a practiced pilot should be able to convert the vehicle from road-going to airworthy in about 10 minutes.
While the Woburn, Mass., company that builds the Transition said it expects to begin delivering the vehicle to customers in two years or so, the Aerocar is available now. However, its asking price of $975,000, reduced from $1.3 million, is steep. The Transition costs $279,000.
As a vintage novelty, the Aerocar is likely to require more maintenance than the newer flying car. And because few Aerocars were made and only a handful are still around today, finding spare parts and mechanics capable and willing to make repairs will be challenging.
While the Transition flew in front of a huge audience last month during its air show debut in Oshkosh, Wisc., the Aerocar hasn't flown for many years and hasn't had an annual inspection — a requirement for flying — since 1998. It will take time and additional expense to get it back in the air.

Bruce Cutler
|Bruce Cutler
|April 29, 1948
|United States
|Alma mater
|Brooklyn Law School
Hamilton College
|Trial attorney
|Known for
|Representing John Gotti and Phil Spector
Bruce Cutler (born April 29, 1948) is an American criminal defense lawyer best known for having defended John Gotti, and for media appearances as a legal commentator.
Life and career[edit]
His father, Murray Cutler, was a former New York City detective who later became a criminal defense attorney. While being interviewed on the radio program Conversations With Allan Wolper on WBGO 88.3 FM, Cutler said that he was inspired by his father's pro-labor, pro-union loyalties to a FDR-style Social Democratic position.[1]
Cutler—and his brother Rich, a federal prosecutor in San Jose, California before joining the law firm Dechert in 2007—grew up in Brooklyn and were good athletes. They spent many summers at Camp Ma-Ho-Ge in Bethel, New York.
Bruce Cutler graduated from Hamilton College where he was captain of the football and lacrosse teams, and graduated cum laude from Brooklyn Law School. He worked as an Assistant District Attorney in Kings County, New York (Brooklyn), and became its top homicide prosecutor.
Cutler gained notoriety in the 1980s when he won three acquittals for Gambino Crime Family boss John Gotti (including one where at least one juror accepted a bribe in return for voting to find Gotti not guilty).[2]
When Gotti was indicted in 1990 for the 1985 murder of Paul Castellano and several other crimes, presiding judge I. Leo Glasser disqualified Cutler and two associates from representing Gotti. Citing evidence from wiretaps at Gotti's Ravenite club, prosecutors contended that Cutler and his colleagues may have known about criminal activity. Since the attorney-client privilege doesn't apply in these circumstances, prosecutors argued that Cutler was "part of the evidence" and thus liable to be called as a witness. They also argued that Cutler had represented other potential witnesses and thus had a conflict of interest. Glasser sided with the prosecutors, contending that Cutler was the "in-house counsel" for the Gambino family.[3][4]
Cutler appeared in the Robert De Niro and Ed Burns film, 15 Minutes, playing himself. He also appeared on Court TV, with attorney Ed Hayes, discussing criminal cases and current events on Cutler and Hayes, and on the CW network has his own TV show, Jury Duty. He also made two guest star appearances in the episodes "Drawing Dead" and "Open Secrets" of the 4th season of the CBS show Blue Bloods. He is godfather to Hayes' daughter, Avery.[5]
Cutler's autobiography was published in 2003.
Cutler had served as the lead defense attorney for Phil Spector[6] until August 27, 2007, when he announced that he was leaving Spector's defense due to "a difference of opinion between Mr. Spector and me on strategy."
In January 2012, Cutler announced his partnership with attorney Timothy Parlatore. The new law firm is named Cutler & Parlatore, PLLC.
As of October 2014, Cutler works as Of Counsel with The Law Firm of Dmitriy Shakhnevich.[7]

The ring is pretty but a lot smaller than I thought it would be. However, the value is excellent. My fiance' and I went to purchase a bigger ring, and they gave us more for this ring than we originally paid for it.
Very pretty, but a diamond fell out within 6 months of purchase. Very upsetting.
Was skeptical buy a ring online but this ring was perfect!!! its been almost a year and it still sparkles like day 1!!!
This was a very pretty ring I got my wife for her anniversary. I had to return it because my wife told me it had black spots in it when she held it up to the light. Not sure what that means, but hopefully it makes sense to someone.
- How did the image on site compare with the actual product? very compatable
- How accurate was the sizing? very
- Please tell us about the quality of the product. poor quality
Overall I am very happy with this ring. I always read customer reviews before buying so that had a lot to do with the ring I finally decided to purchase. This was a replacement engagement ring as a gift from my hubby. I love the ring & have received a ton of compliments on it since I got it. Again, the only thing that was a disappointment was that the side diamonds are very tiny and the band is slightly thinner there. I also thought they would match the size of the diamonds in my wedding band...Other than that we are very pleased. The center diamonds aren't huge but very sparkly & it was what I was looking for!
- Did the image onsite match the product? yes I was just expecting the side diamons to be a bit larger to match the size in my wedding band
- Did the product fit true to size? yes, the fit is very good.
- How is the quality of the product? I think it is a good value for the money spent.
Was really excited to get a nice ring without spending a fortune and this was the perfect match. It is not a large ring, but it has an elegant look to it and shines beautifully. Eye catching without being over the top!! Great buy and great price.
- Did the image onsite match the product? Yes
- Did the product fit true to size? YEs
- How is the quality of the product? Great!
I received this ring the other day from my fiancee, my orginal diamond ring was gold and I always wanted white gold, i didn't know he was doing this for our wedding that is coming up! It sparkles like nothing I have ever seen before, it is really just so beautiful, I have already received a dozen compliments on it from starngers!!! If your unsure of this ring, try it, it is wonderful!
my fiance ordered this ring as my engagement ring on monday, december 14th and we received it friday, december 18th. we have never ordered online before so we didn't know what to expect. this ring was more than i expected. thought it would be too small for my fingers since i have big fingers but on the contrary it looks great. it's a perfect fit. oh and i love the way it sparkles. would definitely recommend this ring! thanks overstock!!!!
purchased the ring for our engagement, liked the way it looked on the website but look's a whole lot better when you get it, ther ring was worth every bit of it. Real shinny an bright an it's not slim like i thought it would be has some meat to it. I would recommend this ring to any of you other guy's buying a ring to your one an only. Not to expensive, i think you get more bang for your buck my opinion though. Just wait till you prappose to your love one with this ring just so magnificent to see.

Roselyn Sanchez traded a successful career in Puerto Rico for a chance at Hollywood stardom. Now her gamble's paying off.
This feature originally appeared in Complex's August/September 2003 issue.
Roselyn Sanchez doesn't slump. She perches. Relaxed but hyper-alert, the actress exudes a calm sense of certainty. If she has anything to prove, it's only to herself: Nine years ago, at 21, Sanchez left behind a successful acting career in her native Puerto Rico and moved to New York, armed with preternatural confidence, a childhood vision of movie stardom, and a rough grasp of English. Today, she is poised to bum rush the doors J. Lo and Salma Hayek opened for young Latinas in Hollywood. With roles in Chasing Papi, Basic (with John Travolta and Samuel L. Jackson), and Boat Trip (co-starring Cuba Gooding Jr.), all within the last year, Sanchez is already one of the hottest young Puerto Rican actresses in the game. Now she's about to follow another move from the J. Lo playbook, showcasing her singing talents on an upcoming album.
Like Jenny from the block, Sanchez is sexy in a way that has depth. "She's a gorgeous girl, and she has a lot of charisma," says Brett Ratner, who directed Sanchez in Rush Hour 2 alongside Jackie Chan and Chris Tucker. "She's interesting to look at, but if she wasn't talented, she wouldn't be where she is right now. A lot of actors are getting success because they're attractive, but they're getting places without the training, and it shows in their work. Roselyn, on the other hand, also has a tremendous work ethic and great training."
Sanchez is also, he says, ferociously hard on herself. "After certain scenes she shot, I found her in her trailer crying because she didn't think she did well," Ratner says from his Hollywood office, "even though I thought she was wonderful."
At 30, Sanchez isn't a kid, but she retains an innocent air that hints at her wholesome past. She describes her childhood as "super-normal." The only girl in a middle-class family with three brothers, Sanchez was raised in San Juan, where her father Efrain ran a wholesale food business, and her mother Olga was a school teacher. She attended private Catholic school, and began studying classical piano at six. The first record she bought was a 45 of "Stuck On You" by Lionel Richie. "When I was a little girl I was very much into Lionel Richie, Madonna, and Menudo," she says with a husky laugh. "To this day, I still love Menudo. That's part of being Puerto Rican, loving Menudo."
Roselyn is part of that new generation where you don't have to be a white Anglo-Saxon American with blond hair and blue eyes to be a big movie star. - Brett Ratner
Another boricua tradition she upholds is culinary tastes: As we sit and talk, she unabashedly scoffs down a plate of breaded steak, chicken cutlets, and avocado salad, and gently teases her assistant because there are no tostones to be had. We are sitting in the spacious penthouse of the Hudson Hotel in Manhattan, and Sanchez [note to the fellas: Start salivating here] is buck-naked except for a thick white hotel bathrobe.
When she was 17, Sanchez landed a role on a hit Puerto Rican comedy variety show called Que Vacilon! (What A Party!); like J. Lo on In Living Color, she started out as a dancer on the show. Over the course of three seasons, however, Sanchez moved on to choreography, began appearing in comedy sketches, and finally became the show's host. Offers for TV commercials began pouring in. Then she won the Miss Puerto Rico Petite pageant, and at 21, she beat women from all 50 states in the Miss America Petite contest. "I was like, wow, this is crazy," she says in rapid-fire English, occasionally breaking into Spanglish. "I went back to Puerto Rico and the president of the pageant said to me, 'You're so accomplished already in your island, what do you want to do?' And I said, 'I want to be an actress and I want to be a singer but I don't see myself here. If I'm gonna do this, I want to be excellent.' I can't stand average people. He said, 'Where do you want to go? New York? L.A.? Do you want to go to Mexico and do soap operas?' I said, 'Ultimately I want Hollywood, but I want to study so I think I have to go to New York.' And I just left."

CAPE GIRARDEAU -- A Sikeston man was sentenced to 135 months in prison for distributing "crack" cocaine.
Matthew Perry, 38, received the sentence on one felony count of distribution of five grams or more of cocaine base in federal court Friday.
The charges stem from an incident on Oct. 4, 2005, when the Missouri State Highway Patrol was conducting an undercover operation in Sikeston, where they were using a confidential informant to purchase cocaine base. The informant told officers that he had purchased the cocaine base from Perry in the past and could do so again.
The informant called Perry and arranged a delivery of cocaine base. Perry and the informant met and Perry sold 13.9 grams of a form of cocaine base, known as "crack" cocaine, to the informant for $500.

Hawa Mahal - Palace of Winds
When you are stuck in traffic in India, and you hear on the radio that 'today you are in the second hottest place on Earth,' very few things are going to cheer you up. This was my plight as I was attempting to navigate my way through Jaipur back to my hostel. Between the crowds, the traffic, the incessant horn honking, the stifling heat and the occasional sacred cow wandering through an already congested intersection, I was so deep in my 'India experience' that I was taken aback when I glanced up at this wonderful structure and suddenly smiled. I ditched the cab to learn more about my new favorite building. Built in 1799, Hawa Mahal has 953 tiny little windows that are covered in incredibly ornate latticework. I pondered the reasoning behind this, and referred to my guidebook to learn that these were all viewing windows through which the female royals could safely observe everyday society while still having their faces concealed. As I stood gazing upward, I wondered what it would have been like, back in the day, to be a commoner on the street looking up at all the little 'hidden faces' in the Palace of Winds. Who are they? What is their story? Would they rather be out here with me? What is it like inside? While I was unable to answer the first three questions, I was able to do something about the last one. The entrance is not in front, but from a side rear doorway. Head to Jaipur, visit Hawa Mahal, take a peek out the window, and enjoy your royal vantage point.

Are you ready to farm or homestead? You can learn from experience, but before you start raising livestock, you should understand what to expect. If you've already started reading, researching and asking questions, you probably know the answers to at least some of these questions. Either way, you're sure to learn something new from the questions below.
1. Why are genetically hornless cattle and sheep referred to as polled?
The "poll" refers to the top of the head between the ears, which is where horns typically originate. Livestock may be either horned (with horns growing from the poll) or hornless (although occasionally small horns, called scurs, may be present). Those animals without horns are referred to as polled because the top of their heads are exposed.
2. What causes a hen to go broody?
A hen's desire to hatch eggs is induced by elevated progesterone levels caused by a complex interaction among genetics, physiology and environmental stimuli. To encourage a hen to sit on eggs, isolate her from the flock and give her a secluded nest with several eggs.
3. My pigs insist on eating dirt. Is this a problem?
No, your pigs are practicing the art of "rooting" and will obtain all kinds of essential nutrients and minerals through the process.
4. Do I have to inject my newborn piglets with iron?
No, not if they were born on pasture or on dirt. Piglets will usually get all the iron they need from eating soil, but there's generally no harm in giving them an iron injection even when they have access to soil.
5. I want to keep sheep but don't want the hassle of shearing. What can I do?
You should select a true hair breed such as the Katahdin; these animals will shed on their own each year.
6. Do goats really eat tin cans?
No, goats are naturally inquisitive and can be mischievous, which translates to the likelihood that they'll play with virtually any object in their pen. They usually don't eat tin cans, but could become quite ill from large pieces of metal they ingest.
7. What's the difference between hay and alfalfa?
Hay is produced by cutting plant material and letting it air-dry before baling or stacking. Alfalfa is a legume forage plant that is high in protein. You can make alfalfa hay, but not all hay contains alfalfa.
8. My cow has a fluid-filled balloon extending from beneath her tail. Does she need my help?
Probably not, assuming she was with a bull about nine months ago. In early- to mid-stages of labor, part of the amniotic sac will often precede the calf, particularly when the water has not yet broken.
9. My cow has been in labor for several hours, and I can only see the calf's nose and one front hoof. Should I assist?
Yes, most likely the other front leg is trailing back and the calf is stuck. If possible, restrain the cow using a head gate, and carefully push the calf back in until you can reach the reversed leg and work it forward. Once you have both legs and the nose presenting, you might still need to assist by pulling (with the cow's contractions, preferably) if the cow's contractions have subsided or are very weak.
10. How can I keep my hogs from rubbing on the fences, which breaks them down?
The best solution for this problem is to install a single strand of electric fencing on the inside of the existing fence. Also consider sinking a heavy scratch post inside the pen — maybe a tree trunk with the bark on it, if you have one.

WAREHAM — An officer used his Taser to subdue an uncooperative passenger during a traffic stop Friday that netted an arrest, three bags of heroin and 176 prescription pills, police said.
When Officer James White stopped an unregistered car at 7:30 p.m., 44-year-old Gilbert Roderick of Wareham refused to remove his hands from his pants, according to police. White fired his Taser, and Roderick allegedly threw a camera case containing an unmarked pill bottle under the car. The pill case, police said, held 176 prescription medication pills, including Oxycontin, Clonazepam, and Clonidine. Three plastic baggies containing small amounts of heroin also were found at the scene, police said.
According to police, Roderick was taken to Tobey Hospital because he claimed to have ingested pills before the traffic stop.
Police say Roderick has been charged with 11 drug offenses, disorderly conduct, disturbing the peace and resisting arrest.

Polish Inflation Back in Range, Cements View of Rapid Easing
A Polish central banker Wednesday urged immediate and rapid monetary easing after the country's consumer price inflation fell back to the central bank's tolerance range.
The National Bank of Poland's monetary panel initiated an easing cycle last week with a reduction of the benchmark rate by 0.25 percentage points to 4.5%. The Polish central bank began its easing cycle amid flagging economic growth, with the Polish government limiting the growth of public spending, domestic consumption slowing, and stagnation in the neighboring euro zone taking its toll.
Polish rate setters were previously in a strongly hawkish mode, which involved raising borrowing costs in May, the fifth increase of the tightening cycle that began in Jan. 2011.
But Poland's slowing economy is doing less now to stoke inflation. The Polish economy is expected to have grown less than 2% on the year in the third quarter, said Anna Zielinska-Glebocka, a member of Poland's 10-strong monetary panel. The reading due Nov. 30 will likely show further slowdown from growth at 2.3% on the year in the second and 3.6% in the first, she said.
Data published Wednesday showed the annual rate of consumer price inflation slowed to 3.4% in October from 3.8% in September. It was the first time CPI was within the central bank's tolerance range of 1.5%-3.5% since Dec. 2010.
Mrs. Zielinska-Glebocka said borrowing costs should go down rapidly, with the benchmark rate going down to 3.8% or even below.
"I'm in favor of lowering interest rates over a short period of time by 100 basis points," said Anna Zielinska-Glebocka on business news broadcaster TVN CNBC. "Whether it gets done over one, two or three monthly meetings, we'll see, it's a collegial decision."
"I wouldn't put it off to further quarters of the year because effects of our action are visible only after a few quarters and we should take action now, as soon as possible," she said.
Economists have said the latest figures indicate Polish interest rates would likely go down again in early December.

The ozone hole that forms each year in the stratosphere over Antarctica was slightly smaller in 2013 than average in recent decades, according to NASA satellite data.
The ozone hole is a seasonal phenomenon that starts to form during the Antarctic spring (August and September). The September-October 2013 average size of the hole was 8.1 million square miles (21 million square kilometers). For comparison, the average size measured since the mid-1990s when the annual maximum size stopped growing is 8.7 million square miles (22.5 million square kilometers). However, the size of the hole in any particular year is not enough information for scientists to determine whether a healing of the hole has begun.
"There was a lot of Antarctic ozone depletion in 2013, but because of above average temperatures in the Antarctic lower stratosphere, the ozone hole was a bit below average compared to ozone holes observed since 1990," said Paul Newman, an atmospheric scientist and ozone expert at NASA's Goddard Space Flight Center in Greenbelt, Md.
The ozone hole forms when the sun begins rising again after several months of winter darkness. Polar-circling winds keep cold air trapped above the continent, and sunlight-sparked reactions involving ice clouds and chlorine from manmade chemicals begin eating away at the ozone. Most years, the conditions for ozone depletion ease before early December when the seasonal hole closes.
Daily images from Jul. 1 to Oct. 15 show the evolution of the 2013 ozone hole. The ozone hole maximum occurred on Sept. 16, 2013.

EUGENE — Kevin Murphy of Rogue River put together two solid days of stroke-play qualifying to finish second and take a No. 2 seed into the start of match play today at the 104th Oregon Amateur Championship.
Murphy, who will be a freshman at Oregon State in the fall, backed up an opening-round 72 with a 3-under-par 69 on Tuesday to finish with a 141 score at Eugene Country Club. Incoming Oregon freshman Thomas Lim of Moorpark, Calif., set the standard, however, with an impressive two-day total of 135 to earn medalist honors.
Lim's second round, which started on the 10th hole, included a 5-under-par 32 on the back nine with five birdies, no pars and a 1-under 34 on the front that included one eagle and a bogey.
Murphy will open match play against Portland's Chris Maletis at 12:24 p.m. today.
On the women's side, Caroline Inglis of Eugene will head into match play as the No. 1 seed after rounds of 75 and 74 put the University of Oregon player at 5 over.
Round of 64 men's match play begins at 8 a.m. today, along with the 32-player women's field. For complete coverage and brackets, visit www.oregonamateur.org.

Trial or other data
Dec 11: The PIII study failed to demonstrate a significant increase in survival with olesoxime (330mg daily) vs placebo in patients receiving riluzole. The company suggest that this is because the disease process is already so severe and rapidly progressing by the time of diagnosis that any further benefit of olesoxime over that of riluzole cannot be detected. The study was an 18-month randomized RCT in 512 patients diagnosed with ALS between 6 and 36 months before enrollment and receiving standard of care. It was undertaken in 15 centres in the EU as part of a 3-year collaborative project MitoTarget for which the European Commission has awarded a grant of nearly EUR 6 million. Actelion has informed Trophos of its decision to not exercise its exclusive option under the July 2010 Acquisition Option Agreement [4]

Feb 11: NCT01285583 is a 15 month open-label safety extension study in 350 ALS patients on riluzole who took part in the TRO19622 CL E Q 1015-1 study. The dose is two capsules of olesoxime (330mg) once a day with the noon meal as add-on therapy to riluzole 50mg twice daily. The study started in Oct 10 and is due to complete Mar 12 [4].
21/02/2011 10:08:44
Jul 10: Actelion has signed an acquisition agreement to purchase Trophos SA within 2 months of Actelion´s receipt of the results of an ongoing PIII study with olesoxime (but not later than Dec 31, 2012). The purchase is partially contingent on market approval by the FDA as well as overall pipeline progression of other compounds [3].
20/07/2010 20:44:47
Mar 10: The PIII study of olesoxime is part of a three year collaborative project named MitoTarget. The European Commission has awarded a grant of nearly EUR 6 million for MitoTarget which is being carried out by a consortium led by Trophos. As well as the clinical trial, MitoTarget aims to enlarge the understanding of mitochondrial dysfunction in neurodegenerative diseases and assess the therapeutic potential of Trophos´ novel proprietary class of mitochondrial pore modulator molecules in neurological diseases [2].

The study is being undertaken in 15 centres in France, Germany, UK, Belgium and Spain. The primary end-point of the study is the overall 18 month survival rate. Secondary end-points include the ALS Functional Rating Scale, time to assisted ventilation, vital capacity (a measure of respiratory function), Manual Muscular Testing and quality of life. (1)

ultra light sleeping option
- Familiarity: I've put it through the wringer
I got this hammock for trips when i want a light weight sleeping option and the weather is nice. The hammock is the perfect size and packs down real small so ideal for tossing in the bag when ever you think you'll be in a good zone for some relaxing
Get your meditation on!
- Familiarity: I've used it once or twice and have initial impressions
This is such an easy and cheap way to chill out! I think this hammock was the first time my friend smiled, during our whole camping trip, since camping is just not her thing. She was in heaven, basking in the sun and staring at the trees.
This is great for adults, but also good for kids that may not be interested in normal camping activities. You can also use them at home or at your city park.
Great hammock
- Familiarity: I've used it several times
Love it. Must have and need atlas straps with purchase. I also recommend eno rainfly!
Very Hammocky
- Familiarity: I've used it several times
We have it set up in the back yard and used it a few times. very lightweight, yet durable. I have not had a problem with it yet. It seems like a good choice to transition over to hammock camping with. Cant wait to do that.
My favorite outdoor trinket
- Familiarity: I've put it through the wringer
I have had this hammock for about 7months now and I have enjoyed every second of its use.. From a ski trip to Ruidoso, New Mexico to Branson, Missouri, I have used my Eno everywhere. As I have used it, it has only acquired one hole. This small hole was formed only because I jumped into the hammock with my keys in my pocket..... haha. Besides being very durable, it dries fast and becomes very compact. I'm definitely looking forward to taking it to Colorado in a couple weeks. I will probably be buying a double nest in the next couple of months.
Hanging 10
Love it!
Super easy to set up! Small compact and light. Makes a great piece of gear to add to the pile!
Great For Backpacking!
- Familiarity: I've used it several times
The Eagles Nest Outfitter hammocks are great for Backpacking. They are lightweight and easy to use and set up with the help of ENO Atlas straps. They provide luxury when you are miles from anywhere!
Light enough to take hiking, best way to rest and enjoy the view
Fits Small
- Familiarity: I've put it through the wringer
Bridle men
Perfect for backpacking!
This is the first backpacking hammock I have ever owned. I read a lot of reviews and did my research. at 17 Oz. makes a great option It packs up to the size of a large orange. I absolutely have fallen in love with hammock camping. If it's warm enough I ditch the tent for the hammock. If you haven't gotten into hammock camping you should consider. Getting off the ground is so much more comfortable. I'm a big guy and this ENO made this strong enough for me. I'm 5'11" and 260lbs I've never been concerned about the strength. Proof that it works (my wife caught me napping)
Great hammock
- Familiarity: I've used it once or twice and have initial impressions
This hammock is wonderful! Very well made and make sure that you get your slap straps too.
My Buddy and Me
- Familiarity: I've put it through the wringer
My hammock goes just about everywhere I go. By far the best quality I have seen, very durable. Also have the Atlas straps which are easy to use and very dependable.
Love love love
- Familiarity: I've put it through the wringer
I've had this hammock for a year and it is by far my favorite item purchased off this website. I use it everyday in the spring/summer/fall to lounge in while I have an afternoon beer and play fetch with the dogs.
Love taking it camping. It is easy to set up and is great for camp site chillin.
Buy a hammock and enjoy life a little more.
Great for lounging!
- Familiarity: I've used it several times
I bought this hammock for fun to use around the house and on camping trips. The hammock packs down so small so it is easy to take anywhere. Also so easy to put up anywhere. The hammock is small in size but very roomy and comfortable. Great for lounging!
Best of the Ultra-Light category
- Familiarity: I've put it through the wringer
Hammocks are my favorite piece of furniture. So I wanted one that I could bring on summer hikes. Sometimes I'm tired, other times I just want to chill in a beautiful place in steezy comfort. Thus, the appeal of the ultra-light category of packable hammocks.
I bought three: the ENO, Grand Trunk, and Hammock Bliss. Prices vary considerably. And you get what you pay for. The GT and HB ultra-lights were less comfortable, seemed less durable, and were less convenient to hang/take down/store.
I returned the HB and the GT and kept the ENO. The ENO weighed more or less the same as the other two. But the material was non-sticky, even breathable and soft like it had been brushed. While I usually will take off my mountain shoes when I get it in, I don't feel like I'd automatically tear the thing if I snagged a heel, or whatnot. The HB and GT material feels like it's stressed and ready to tear just from the force of laying in them. Falling through a hammock sucks.
In addition to the comfort factor, the ENO ultra-light hammock has built in biners and stuff sack that are hella convenient. I use two 6' loops of 550 cord lashed around trees to clip in the binders. It's such an easy set up. The packed-up ENO ultra-light hammock is about the size of two man's fists. It fits, along with the paracord, in one of the large Outdoor Research Ultra-light ditty sacks, right in the bottom of my pack, and stays there until it's time to chill or have a safety meeting.
Highly recommended. (4 Star rating bc there's always room for improvement)
Go six deep!
- Familiarity: I've put it through the wringer
This is amazing! Get six or more high and keep your camp together!
Pretty good!
- Familiarity: I've used it several times
I like this item the only thing I was not sold on is that I did not get ropes with it to hang it like the grand trunk hammocks come with. I do have a double hammock from GT and going to this after that I do like having the extra room! It packs up super small and tiny and I love that!
ENO 1.5 Nest
A great hammock to hand with your little! This is her hammock....she lets me use it from time to time!
Father Daughter Hang
A great way to spend some time with the mini-me
How well would the SingleNest work for...
How well would the SingleNest work for someone who is 6"5'?
Hard to say since I am only 5'5", but there is plenty of extra room in it for me. Friends of mine up to 6'1" have also used it comfortably. For $10 more, I guarantee the DoubleNest would be roomy enough for you.
how hard is it to sleep/ adjust to sleeping...
how hard is it to sleep/ adjust to sleeping in this hammock for nights on end
After 14h of hard trekking I'm sleeping like a baby...and you?
It's move for side to side....but I need the sleep (;
I've personally never had a problem with it. But when I'm backpacking with it I'm usually so tired I could fall asleep on anything. And with how comfortable this hammock is it should be pretty easy to get used to. The only problem I've experienced is that you get colder faster because there isn't any insulation between you and the ground. But they sell insulators that solve that problem. Hope this helps!
If you have a problem with insulation just toss your thermarest in it, works great!
Gotta agree with Luke. Throw a pad in there and you'll be set.
Does this hammock come with rope to hang...
Does this hammock come with rope to hang it?
no - check out my recommendations on the doublenest page
No but you can purchase a set of slap straps. I recommend just buying some tubular webbing and using that instead. Cheaper, lighter, stronger, and offers more flexibility.
Do slap straps come with this product or...
Do slap straps come with this product or do they need to be purchased seperately
It does not come with the slapstraps. It just comes with the carabiner on each end that you can attach to whatever.

(EDITOR'S NOTE: Students in Amy Neylon's and Wynn Kutz's health classes at Williamsport Area High School wrote peace poems as part of their violence prevention unit.)
Non-Violent World
By Kristin Niedermyer, grade 11
When hate creates,
What peace can't make,
Then war will finally leave
Hope is part,
Of what we need,
Love is not serene.
Hopefully one day,
Somehow, someday,
We'll believe in peace.
By Zoie Cipriani, grade 11
The world would be a happier place, if war would end and the world embrace.
A child's eye that yearns for more, lets feed the hungry, and dress the poor.
The homeless man standing in the rain, let's find him a home and ease his pain.
To clean up our world and rid of debris, would make our land more like home of the free.
Let's build our circle and hold our hands, unite one and all ... our home, our land.
One Question
By Liz Snyder, grade 11
In a world where peace no longer exists,
I ask you one question, my question is this.
If everyone cared and just got along, and
Loved one another, would that be so wrong?
If there was less screaming, less fighting, less tears,
less killings, more trying, less wars and more cheers.
If peace could be used, like an Internet trial,
I think we should get it, even for just a while.
Keep the Peace
By Alyssa Saratowksi, grade 11
People hate and discriminate
They fight and lie
But where does that get them?
All we need is love and devotion
We need friends and family.
Why is it so hard to keep peace?
Ignore the people who say things
Laugh when they try to make you cry
Should it really be that hard?
So talk things out
And do not fight
Focus on the good
Ignore all the bad
Now that, we can do!!
A Child's Prayer
By Whitnee Clay, grade 11
God, make the world a better place
Let all the violence end,
Why can't we all just get along?
And work on being friends?
God, tell me why my father's over across the seas
When he should be here,
Doing bonding stuff with me.
How did this all start?
When is it going to end?
I wish my daddy would come home,
I miss my best friend.
God, if you're really listening
Please let me know
You'll keep my daddy safe
Until it's time for him to come home.
There Is Tomorrow
By Farida Esaa, grade 11
She asks for
But he refuses.
The land was destined for his people.
She cries for
But he is deaf.
His is the right God.
She screams for
But he is blind.
His skin is of a different color.
She pleads for
But his cruelty is unrelenting.
He must avenge his brothers.
She begs forgiveness
But he raises his hand
And hits her once more.
And yet,
When anguished wails
No longer pierce the air,
Like the shards of glass,
Among the ashes,
The thumping of his heart
Echoes in the emptiness,
And remorseful tears
Cleanse the blood-stained soil.
Beneath the din of his silence,
She whispers.
There is Tomorrow.
He listens.
By Amanda Page, grade 12
I drink, I do drugs, does that make me cool?
I wear all red and call myself a gangster
Does that make me cool?
Oh, wait, I shot a police officer with a wife and two kids ... I just know this will make me cool!
Is this what our youth have been subjected to: drugs and violence??
What about the hopes and dreams of becoming doctors and lawyers and not just the hope of increasing our street credibility?
Well, now I'm 6 feet under and without a doubt ... cool.

Dear Editor:
We are being swamped by misleading TV ads and mailers from Grow Missouri telling us to call and support tax cuts. It is of interest to note that this campaign is being paid for to the tune of over $2.4 million by one man, multi-millionaire Rex Sinquefield of St. Louis.
The ads don't tell you that the median Missouri family will not even notice their estimated $6 tax cut. What you will notice, is the impact on your local school district and other state funded services. What these ads are really talking about is House Bill 253, which was vetoed by Gov. Jay Nixon.
Cass County schools would see an estimated loss of revenue of $4-7 million dollars. Our Missouri schools are already underfunded by $600 million dollars.
Many school boards, PTAs, school administrators, and teacher organizations have already voiced their opposition to this bill. Local districts would have to make some drastic cuts.
The bill would also reinstate sales tax on prescription drugs and college textbooks. This would amount to a $200 million dollar tax increase.
The Missouri Department of Mental Health would see cuts amounting to $87 million dollars . Additionally, they would lose $87 million dollars in matching federal funds.
Funding for early autism detection and treatment for autistic children would see a 25 percent cut.
Five out of seven residential facilities for the mentally handicapped and two psychiatric care facilities would close. The residential facility in Higginsville is one example.
Several regional DMH offices would close. DMH projects 850 positions lost!
I see a lot of Missouri jobs lost due to this bill.
The ripple effects to the state's economy from just the cuts to education and mental health haven't even been factored in! The only winners from the override of the veto of HB 253 are lobbyists, some corporations, and the very wealthy.
Your voice is important! Cass County Representatives Rick Brattin and Donna Pfaustch, and Senator Ed Emery voted for this bill along with bill co-sponsor, Chris Molendorp. Rep. Joe Runions does not support HB 253. Call, write, or email your legislators to encourage them to sustain the Governor's veto of HB 253 and not to bow to a multi-millionaire's pressure.

Dear Editor:
While I sympathize with the desire to memorialize a lost life, I write to request that people planning such events as the recent balloon release consider a way of doing this other than a mass pollution wildlife endangerment ceremony.
For images of the harm done to wildlife by descended ceremonial balloons, see www.balloonsblow.com. I would like to suggest planting a tree, placing a memorial bench in a park, or building a handicapped accessible fishing dock instead of teaching children that throwing trash into our skies is acceptable.

Dear Editor:
My thanks to the Harrisonville R-IX School Board for voting unanimously Aug. 27 to adopt a resolution to uphold Governor Nixon's veto of House Bill 253.
Each school board member stood firm for the students of Harrisonville, deserving thanks and support from every citizen in the district.
There have been many mailers and TV commercials about House Bill 253, all funded by one individual, talking about a tax cut for all Missourians.
The average citizen would see approximately $12 per year, thats $1 per month. However, the school's budget would take a huge hit if the Governor's veto is overridden. If the veto is overridden, what would the school district have to cut then? Teachers? Textbooks? Sports? Band? Is that worth a $1 per month tax cut?
House Bill 253 is a poorly written bill with many flaws. Not only does it affect the budgets of every school in Missouri, but it also eliminates the sales tax exemption on prescription drugs, cuts funding to public services, among others. However, it does give big tax cuts to large corporations, LLCs and lobbyists.
Email or call State Senator Ed Emery, State Rep. Donna Pfautsch, or State Rep. Rick Brattin and ask them to support education by voting to uphold the Governor's veto of House Bill 253. Our school board already has.

Dear Editor:
I am an active genealogist who has researched years upon years in many of the counties in Missouri. Except in Cass County.
I live a ways away, and called to see where, and when, I could come and look up public records. I was told the staff was short-staffed, but I could write to them with the names, dates and information being requested and that they would get back with me.
However, because they were extremely short-staffed, the information could take months upon months to get a response.
Why am I unable to enter Cass County Courthouse for the purpose of family history research?
Being short-staffed is not my problem and no excuse for the rudeness I experienced. I do have an issue of not having access to said records, though.
I feel bad for you, Cass County residents.
For genealogists everywhere...

Dear Editor:
Once again this year, the Shepherds Staff Food Pantry is hosting its annual food drive 7 a.m.-4 p.m. Saturday, Sept. 7 at the Harrisonville Walmart.
Volunteers from the Ministerial Alliance churches will be at the doors of the store accepting gifts of food and money that will be used to feed people in our community.
If you could pick up a few extra items as you do your grocery shopping that day and put them in our barrels, you would be helping your neighbors.
The pantry continues to serve more than a thousand people in Cass County every month, so there is always a demand for help.

Notes & Reviews:
Acis and Galatea, variously described as a pastoral, a 'little opera' and a masque, is one of Handel's most popular works. It is a delectable succession of pastoral airs, love-lorn lyrics, and sprightly or mourning choruses, spiced by the pungent and unforgettable interjection of the one-eyed giant Polyphemus, who destroys the idyll of the shepherd Acis and the nymph Galatea. Handel had first turned to the subject in a cantata written in Naples in 1708. His English work, formally a masque, went through several stages until this two-act version of 1739, written principally by John Gay and graced by Handel's exquisite music.Notes & Reviews:

On September 16, 2013 the Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) aboard NASA�s Aqua satellite passed over the southern tip of Iceland and captured a remarkable image dust plumes blowing hundreds of kilometers over the Atlantic Ocean. The westernmost plume is dark tan in color and so thick that the blue ocean waters are obscured from view near Iceland's coast. The eastern plume appears broader, thinner and light gray in color.
According to the Icelandic Met Office, near the M�rdalsj�kull and Vatnaj�kull ice-caps there are vast glacial outwash plains which stretch from the glacial margins to the sea. These plains, formed by melt water from glaciers, are known as sandur. Strong northerly winds frequently blow dust from the sandur plains far from the shore. This particular dust plume originates to the east of the M�rdalsj�kull ice cap.
The Katla volcano, one of the largest in Iceland, lies under the M�rdalsj�kull glacier and in the general region of the westernmost plume. Katla has a history of large, violent eruptions occurring on an average of every 50-100 years. The volcano has been increasingly restless since 1999, with increased seismicity in recent years. In 2011 a very small eruption was reported, with minimal damage. Because of the increasing restlessness and the dangerous nature of historic eruptions, the volcano is currently carefully monitored. None of the monitoring agencies reported eruption at Katla in mid-September of this year.

If Isaac Coffee's mom hugs him a little tighter these days, there's a reason. He's a survivor.
"They was telling me like, it's a 50/50 chance that he might make it, and there's a 50/50 chance that he might not," said Lilian Coffee.
Isaac was born a full 12 weeks premature -- tiny and very sick.
"I was just thinking, every day, like my baby, he's going to make it, he's going to be strong, and I got to be strong with him."
X-rays showed gas in the wall of his intestine. In necrotizing enterocolitis, the intestinal wall is invaded by bacteria, causing damage, even intestinal death.
"In the worst case, all the intestines can be affected, and actually go on to die. There's an in-between form, where babies, just a portion of the intestine gets sick and forms a hole," said Jacqueline Saito, M.D., Assistant Professor, Division of Pediatric Surgery Washington University School of Medicine St. Louis, MO.
Doctors working to stop N-E-C with aggressive early intervention and clinical research, analyzing how preemies respond to specific intestinal bacteria.
"In the case of babies, if they're born very prematurely or their defenses were maybe down before that, a bacteria that doesn't bother you or me may be fatal."
After four months in the ICU at St. Louis Children's, and removal of part of his intestine, Isaac wears the battle scars of a winning fight.
"He made it, and he's been through a lot."
Now, Isaac's two years old, full of energy, and he and his mom have plenty to smile about.

BACKGROUND: Approximately 1 in 2,000 to 4,000 babies are born affected by necrotizing enterocolitis (NEC). A disease that mostly affects premature infants, NEC causes inflammation and infection, which can lead to the destruction of the bowels. It is the most common and serious gastrointestinal disorder that premature infants experience. This disorder usually occurs within the first two weeks of life after milk feeding has begun.
(SOURCE: www.kidshealth.org)
CAUSES AND SYMPTOMS: Although the specific causes of NEC are unknown, the theory is that because infants' intestinal tissue is underdeveloped, the tissue is weakened by too little oxygen or blood flow, so when feeding is started, the added stress allows bacteria in the intestines to invade and damage the intestinal tissue wall. The damage may be extensive or only affect a small portion of the intestines. After the bacteria begin to spread, the infant is unable to eat as the bacteria causes them to get sick. If the bacteria are able to invade the bloodstream, the infant can experience imbalances of minerals in the blood. In severe cases, a hole may develop in the intestines, which will allow bacteria to leak into the abdomen and cause life-threatening infections that can have serious complications.
(SOURCE: www.kidshealth.org)
NEW NEC RESEARCH: NEC is a serious disease with a death rate of about 25 percent. Currently, researchers are investigating the ontogeny of salivary epidermal growth factor (sEGF) in premature infants to determine the correlation to the development of NEC. Investigators found that there is a positive relation between the two, and patterns of sEGF levels over the first two weeks of life were related to the development of NEC in infants with very low birth weight.

Jacqueline Saito, MD, Assistant Professor, Division of Pediatric Surgery at Washington University School of Medicine in St. Louis, talks about a condition that affects babies.
What is necrotizing enterocolitis?
Dr. Saito: Necrotizing enterocolitis is a condition that can affect the intestine of a baby and it most often occurs in babies who are born prematurely but it can occur in babies who are born at full term at all. And it's a real tricky disease because it can occur n a mild form where babies may will just get slightly ill, they may have bloody stools, may have vomiting or get a little bit of a bloated abdomen but actually recover with not feeding them and treating them with antibiotics. And in the worst case all the intestine can be affected and actually go on to die. There's an in between form where maybe just a portion of the intestine gets sick and forms a hole. But it's really a quite variable disease. Unfortunately we don't fully understand what causes it which is obviously a source of great frustration.
What's going on inside the intestine when this happens?
Dr. Saito: Well there is definitely inflammation that occurs there can be bacterial invasion of the intestine itself. But again it's not really well understood what the process is triggered by. There are several theories about what causes it there's the thought that maybe the intestine is immature in its defense because when you think about it our intestine has a pretty hefty job. It has to absorb the nutrients from what we eat yet defend itself against the bacteria that live inside the intestine and so it has to be a defense as well. And so I think that it makes sense that there might be something wrong with the defense aspect in a baby who is born prematurely or even in the young term baby.
Does it come on all of a sudden and without warning?
Dr. Saito: Sure it can occur very suddenly and within hours the intestine can be profoundly affected, in other children it's a little bit more of a gradual onset. And so sometimes we can see some early signs, sometimes babies will have breath holding spells, sometimes they will have a low heart rate or their temperature won't be stable. And then some of the other signs that I mentioned that they may start having vomiting or bloody stools, get a larger abdomen. And so one of the things that we can do to try to sort out what's going on is just get a plain abdominal x-ray and so there will be certain signs of necrotizing enterocolitis on those films.
What do you see on those x-rays?
Dr. Saito: So the earliest sign can be something called pneumatosis intestinalis and what happens there is gas from the bacteria in the intestine can actually get in to the wall of the intestine and that has a very distinct pattern that you can see on x-ray. The next more worrisome signs that you can see are actually signs of actual hole in the intestine. And that can be seen where if you put the baby on their side that air will float up and become very obvious. Another worrisome sign can be actually gas within the liver itself and the thought is there is that the gas that is in the intestine wall gets in to the blood draining from the intestine and then goes on in to the liver and that's called portavenal gas.
In a worst-case scenario what happens to these babies?
Dr. Saito: The worst-case scenario is that babies can die from this and that's one thing that makes if really tough for anyone who takes care of these babies is that we realize that it can be a fatal disease. The other problem is that in the youngest premature babies they're in a delicate balance and so any stress on their body has downstream affect. So if you get bad infection do to necrotizing enterocolitis that can strain their very delicate lungs make it hard for them to breathe well. If they're not breathing well and getting good oxygen to their bloodstream that strains the heart and so it's those cascade of events. The other thing that's becoming more apparent is that there's some concern that babies who have necrotizing enterocolitis and develop the most severe forms where they actually form a hole in the intestine or part of the intestine dies that, that can impact their development later on in life and we don't really understand why that is.
What's the role that microbes play in all this and are there lots of microbes in our body?
Dr. Saito: There are a lot of microbes in our bodies but obviously we don't start with that. So when a baby is first born the intestine is sterile because the baby has been inside mom in a sterile environment. And that's actually one of the focuses of interest is how do we acquire the bacteria within our intestine, what determines what bacteria end up there. And some of the things that have been linked to that are even the type of formula or whether baby takes breast milk. So the diet that a baby has, what they eat can affect the bacteria within the intestine, whether they've been exposed to antibiotics, whether they've been sick with other infections. In babies even where they are hospitalized can have an impact on that so the environment.
In your current study where you're looking the babies gut what are you doing and what are you trying to find out?
Dr. Saito: Well what we're trying to find out is in babies who develop necrotizing enterocolitis whether there's an alteration of the bacteria within their intestine. Because the thought is that there may be certain types of bacteria that this may interact with the intestine itself and make some babies more predisposed to necrotizing enterocolitis.
Are there particular microbes that can kill us? Are there some that show up that shouldn't and that's it?
Dr. Saito: I think that's a hard question to answer because we know that there are a lot of bacteria that just reside in our bodies and don't do a whole lot. You know we hear about infections that can be very severe. Certainly if your defenses are down if you're sick with other illnesses or in the case of babies if you are born very prematurely where your defenses may be down a little bit for that, a bacteria that doesn't bother you or me may be fatal. So a little bit depends on the person or the baby as well. I think that it also depends where is the bacteria? So bacteria in the bloodstream is very different than bacteria in the intestine and so once a bacteria can gain entry in to the intestine yes, it can be fatal. We do have powerful antibiotics but then again bacteria are smart because every time we seem to come up with sophisticated antibiotics they figure out a way to evade it. So I think that's one of the things that's a concern about in the medical community is making sure that we are judicious about our antibiotic usage in order to hopefully not promote the development of these really tough bacteria that are hard to treat.
And Isaac is a success story maybe of early intervention or was he just one of the lucky ones.
Dr. Saito: You know I like to think that early prompt intervention helped him but he's probably a tough little guy too and I think that probably helped him get through this. And I think like I said it's that delicate balance that I think for him he was able to withstand the stress of necrotizing enterocolitis, his lungs could take it his heart could take it and he was able to kind of just truck on through and recover.

Dipping into the college free agent pool
CALGARY, AB -- On more than one occasion, Calgary Flames general manager Jay Feaster has noted the need to bolster his prospect pool. The most obvious response to this is drafting well through all seven rounds of the NHL Draft and that is the best way to stock the cupboards.
However, there are other methods to accomplish this goal and this past season, the organization began to add to their depth chart by becoming more competitive in the pursuit of college free agents.
Feaster hired Frank Anzalone as the Flames NCAA scout last summer so the team could have regular, comprehensive scouting reports on college players and his work over the course of the season has allowed the team to get a good read on individuals they feel would fit within the organization.
"It's been really competitive," said Tod Button, director of amateur scouting. "Before Frank, if we wanted to go see a college guy, we'd pull (scout) Tom Webster and say, 'Webby, go watch this guy.' You couldn't really build a solid book on him with a viewing or two viewings. I don't want to say it's guessing because you have good scouts and they can evaluate but you don't have the time needed."
There is a fair amount of groundwork involved in scouting and signing college free agents. In addition to creating profiles, teams have to figure out which players will be leaving school at the end of season, whether it be because they have completed their degree or if they would like to explore other avenues in their career.
After that, teams begin to make initial contact with the coaches, agents, family advisers and players.
"We're always very respectful of the coaches," Feaster said of the Flames approach. "We take the position that we will never tell a player, 'You ought to come out.' If there's a guy who is saying, 'Hey, I'm thinking of coming out at the end of my junior year,' or whatever the case may be, we'll tell you where we are on you - we like you, we think you can play, here's how we see you.
"But we're not going to say to you, 'Sign now.' Some teams do. Some teams will go in and offer a contract - 'Sign right now. If you don't sign right now, you're wasting your time.' I don't think that's in our place to do that. The young man and his family ought to make that decision, along with the input from the family adviser."
With the market heating up, landing college free agents takes much more than having a good scout in place. More often than not, teams are going head-to-head as they try to sign players.
"The agents have done a great job at making sure there is competition for these players," Button told CalgaryFlames.com. "Making sure every team knows who is interested and who they are competing against. So there's a recruiting element to it and there's a scouting element to it."
This year, the Flames signed forward David Eddy after he decided he would leave St. Cloud State. They also inked Calgary product Brady Lamb, who spent the last four years patrolling the blueline at the University of Minnesota-Duluth. Both suited up for the Abbotsford Heat at the end of the regular season.
Feaster is pleased with what the Flames have been able to accomplish this season and is optimistic about the team's chances of securing high-end players from the college market in the future.
"What you hope is, as a highly sought-after guy narrows his choices, you want a place at the table.
"That's where we were successful this year."

In a chat ET Now, Vikas Khemani, President and Head-Institutional Equities, Edelweiss Securities, gives his views on aviation sector.
ET Now: What is the call on aviation?
Vikas Khemani: I have bullish on aviation for sometime especially post Kingfisher debacle, because you will see structurally large amount of supplies has gone out of the industry from Air India and from Kingfisher. This has created a significant demand supply gap and according to me in this scenario, it will give lot of room to the players to improve both utilisation as well as the realisation. Also, there has been some move by the government to ease pressure on then or make things easy for the aviation sector, so all those things will augur well for the sector. It will help sector to deleverage and it will help sector to improve the cash flows. Obviously, Jet Airways being the largest player with only $500 million market cap best placed in the sector, according to me.
