Palmetto Christian may be on to something in Region II.
Since joining SCISA Class AA Region II in 2012, the Eagles have yet to lose a regular season region game in 20 contests. Tuesday, they completed their second straight perfect region season with a 63-55 road win over South Aiken Baptist.
Palmetto Christian (13-10, 10-0) earns a No. 1 seed and first round bye in the Region II tournament.
It took a strong finish Tuesday for the Eagles to pick up their 20th straight win. Palmetto Christian entered the second half trailing by six points but outscored South Aiken 41-27 through the final 16 minutes.
Joe Siegwald and Ben German both turned in double-doubles as part of five Eagles who scored at least 11 points. Siegwald scored 14 points with 12 rebounds and four steals, while German scored 11 with 11 rebounds. J.T. Waters, Chris DeMarco and Will Tuchfarber each scored 11 points; Waters added five steals.
South Aiken scored 14 points in both of the first two quarters but was limited to just eight in the third while Palmetto Christian took a one-point lead. Both teams turned in their highest-scoring quarter of the night in the final frame but Palmetto Christian sealed the win with a 26-point effort.
The Eagles will face the winner of the Saturday's No. 4 vs. No. 5 seed game on Monday at 7:30 p.m.
Lady Eagles take third
The Palmetto Christian Lady Eagles topped South Aiken Baptist, 60-34, Tuesday on the road to secure third place in Region II.
Corey Caulder led Palmetto Christian with a game-high 34 points and 11 rebounds, and Lizzie Wilson added 11 points and 10 boards.
Palmetto Christian (12-12, 7-3) dominated from the tip, allowing South Aiken just nine points through the first half to open a 25-point halftime advantage.
The Lady Eagles will enter the Region II tournament as the No. 3 seed against South No. 6 South Aiken Baptist Saturday.

Often when Quakers speak of the Divine, they are referring to a deeply internal experience, an experience of being filled with Truth and Love. Often they witness the Divine when sitting together in silent worship. But many times they do not. The inward experience is one of being guided, of being transformed from a place of shadow to a place of light; of bondage to freedom; of despair to hope. The presence of the Divine is not merely a passive force, but it is active in our lives, guiding our actions, emotions and thoughts, offering support and clarity at all times.
Both of these excerpts from Black Fire: African American Quakers on spirituality and human rights, speak to the awareness of an inward teacher and its power for transformation. For William Boen (1735-1824), a farmer and who had been enslaved, the "Inward Teacher" appeared in a response to his fear of being attacked while cutting down trees for the man who called himself his "master." His powerful recognition of his "true master" would transform his life, and he would go on to become good friends with Quaker abolitionist, John Woolman.
N. Jean Toomer (1894-1967) was born in Washington, DC and was an influential participant in the Harlem Renaissance. While he may have aexperienced a similarly shocking insight of the Divine as that of William Boen, his writing speaks to the weekly practice of sitting in silent worship, waiting for guidance from that "Inward Teacher" so that our lives become the outgrowths of the Divine's insights and promptings. In both of these reflections, the writers speak of a Divine presence that is both all-powerful and intimately personal, empowering us all to sit, wait and to be transformed. - Madeline
The Basis of Friends Worship and Other Inward Practices
by N. Jean Toomer
By our own efforts we can subdue the body-mind to some extent. Few of us, by our efforts alone, can activate our spiritual natures in a vital and creative way. We need God's help. We need the help of one another. But God's help may not come at once. Our help to each other, even though we are gathered in a meeting for worship or actively serving our fellow men outside of the meeting, may and often is delayed as regards our kindling one another spiritually. What are we to do in this case? There is only one thing we can do—wait. Having done our part to overcome the separated self, we can but waiting for the spiritual self to arise and take command of our lives. Having brought ourselves as close as we can to God, we can but hold ourselves in an attitude of waiting for Him to work His will in us, to draw us fully into His presence.
So the early Friends engaged in silent waiting, humble yet expectant waiting, reverent waiting upon the Lord, that they might be empowered by Him to help one another and to render to Him the honor and adoration which, as Robert Barclay said, characterizes true worship; that His power might come over them and cover the meeting; that He might bring about the death of the old, the birth of the new man.
Anecdotes and Memoirs
by William Boen
A thought then came into my mind, whether I was fit to die. It was showed me, and I saw plain enough, that I was not fit to die. Then it troubled me very much, that I was not fit to die; and I felt very desirous—very anxious that I might be made fit to die. So I stood still, in great amazement; and it seemed as if a flaming sword passed through me. And when it passed over, and I recollected myself (for I stood so, some time) it was showed me how I should be made fit to die: and I was willing to do anything, so I might be made fit to die.
Thus I was brought to mind and follow that, that has been the guide and rule of my life—that within me, that inclined me to good, and showed and condemned evil. Now I considered I had a new master—I had two masters; and it was showed me (in my mind) by my new Master, a certain tree on the hill-side, that I must not cut down. I knowed the tree well enough. I had not come to it yet. But I did not know what I should do; for my old master had told me to cut all the trees down, on that hill-side. My new master forbids me to cut a certain one. So I thought a good deal about it. I cut on; and by and by I came to the tree. I cut on by it, and let it stand. But I expected, every day, my old master would come, and see that tree standing, and say, 'What did thee leave that tree standing for? Did I not tell thee to cut all the trees down, as thee went? Go, cut that tree down.' Then, I didn't know what I should do. But he never said anything to me about it. I cut on, and got some distance by it; and one day my old master brought out his axe, and cut the tree down himself; and never said, William, why didn't thee cut that tree down? Never said anything to me about it. Then I thought, surely my new Master will make way for me, and take care of me, if I love him, and mind him, and am attentive to this my guide, and rule of life. And this seemed an evidence and proof of it, and strengthened me much in love and confidence in my Guide.

Now, while the pair are still in love, Fedotowsky no longer feels like she has to hurry down the aisle.
"We're waiting a little bit," she told PEOPLE at the MNG by Mango for JCPenney Launch in Manhattan Tuesday. "We really want to make sure we're doing this right."
But that pause, she says, has nothing to do with how the couple feel about each other.
"Nothing has changed – we're still just as happy as we were," explains Fedotowsky, 26. "When we were finished [with the show], we were so excited. We were like, 'Oh, we're going to get married right away.' But if you're rushing because you're in love, why rush? [Just] wait. You're going to get married any way. We're both sort of enjoying life."
And the couple, who recently moved to San Diego together, are now feeling like homebodies – even favoring possible wedding venues "somewhere on the California coast."
"We don't want to have to travel to our own wedding," she says. "We were thinking that maybe we'll want to get married, then go home for a couple days, relax and then go on our honeymoon. We just came off like a three-month-long honeymoon on The Bachelorette. We were just in Tahiti! We're tired of traveling like that."

on February 11, 2013 - 12:19 AM
LEWISTON – Early in this school year, Billy Baron was speaking with one of his Canisius College professors about the upcoming basketball season. The teacher asked Baron if he had set any goals.
"I want to win the MAAC championship," said Baron, the new man on campus.
The way Baron remembers it, the professor responded with a snarl. Who could blame him? Any educated person knew about the recent, sorry history of the Griffs, who had been a competitive laughingstock.
MAAC championship? How about winning a game in the quarterfinals first? The Griffs hadn't reached the conference tourney semifinals in more than a decade. They hadn't finished with a winning record in MAAC play since Bill Clinton was president.
Well, it doesn't seem like an outlandish goal now. The Griffs have made remarkable strides under new coach Jim Baron – Billy's dad. On Sunday, they issued a resounding statement to the league, beating front-running Niagara, 77-70, for their first win in the Gallagher Center in 10 seasons.
Canisius hiked its record to 16-9, guaranteeing its first overall winning record since 2000-01, when Brian Dux was a sophomore. More important, it lifted the Griffs' league record to 9-5 and put them in a second-place tie with Loyola, a game behind the Purple Eagles.
It's anyone's guess which MAAC team will cut down the nets in Springfield exactly one month from today. You pick a favorite: Niagara, which played without high scorer Antoine Mason, has lost three in a row. Loyola, the defending champ, lost on Sunday to ninth-place Marist, which won a 105-104, double-overtime thriller at fourth-place Iona last week.
"It's unbelievable," Niagara coach Joe Mihalich said. "It is crazy, absolutely crazy. I just told the team, 'Everybody's going to say you lost three in a row, oh, man!' But name a team in the league that wouldn't trade places with us right now."
The Griffs are just happy to be in the conversation, the likely possessor of a first-round bye in the tournament. Winning at Gallagher proves they can stand up to the pressure of a big-game situation and make the sort of plays necessary to survive in a league tourney.
Billy Baron is a big part of that. He's the Griffs' best player since Dux, the point guard the last time they made any noise in March. Baron, who scored a career-high 33 points, is a point guard with a shooting guard's mentality.
Still, it's hard to win a conference tournament with guards carrying the load.
You need your big men to command attention in the post, get to the foul line and stop the opposition's big men. I've seen a lot of talented Niagara and Canisius teams lose in March by playing small.
That's why Jordan Heath, the 6-foot-10 junior from Irondequoit, could be the key in the conference tourney.
Heath can be soft at times, like many big men playing for the first time in Division I. He still needs to be more assertive and demand the ball more, but he's getting better.
Heath had eight points, 12 rebounds and three blocks.
He made one of the biggest plays of the game, hustling in transition to grab Harold Washington's missed layup and slamming it home to give Canisius a 68-64 lead with 52 seconds left. Niagara never got any closer.
"We've been talking about being a lot more aggressive," said Jim Baron, "and we need him to do more of that, not only with his offense but rebounding and blocking shots. We can't depend" on Chris Manhertz "to do everything inside."
Heath isn't the most passionate competitor, but after the dunk he turned to the Niagara crowd and did a little exulting.
"It was very emotional at that time of the game," Heath said, "so I had to let a little out."
Washington, who had his best game in three weeks with 18 points, smiled when Heath said those words.
"He definitely does," Washington said. "He needs to be a 6-11 monster."
The Griffs will need some monster efforts to make a run at a MAAC title. A lot can happen in a league this balanced, in which no team seems capable of playing its best three days in succession.
It could be a memorable three days for our teams. Unless Canisius loses out, both the Griffs and Eagles will enter the MAAC tourney with winning records for the first time since the 1998-99 season, Mihalich's first. They have never met in the championship game.
They've each won on the other's court this season. It almost seems they are destined to meet a third time, to settle the issue.
"I'd like to see them in the MAAC championship, for sure," Billy Baron said.

4 Cliché Movie Moments Explained by Psychology
Damsels in Distress
Whether it's blatant sexism within the film industry or a much bigger and more blatant sexism of our culture, guys like the idea of saving a beautiful woman from something dangerous and then being alone with her. The plot is rehashed in hundreds of movies, video games and books that predate either by centuries. Movies like Legend, Spider-Man andIndiana Jones all scratch that itch for men, but they also inadvertently suggest that women, in the face of danger, turn into fragile, sentient bags of meat that are only capable of speaking and sometimes crying. Well guess what, ladies -- science agrees 100 percent.
It doesn't really matter what the caption is, you're already mad.
The psychology behind it:
Well that's not entirely true. Science loves and respects you. It did, however, conduct a study that found women respond differently to immediate peril than men. The study measured brain activity in both sexes when confronted with perceived danger and it sparked very different parts of the brain for each. Men's brains showed increased activity in the part of the brain responsible for instinctive functions like breathing and heart rate, essentially preparing the body to fight or run the hell away.
Mostly to run away.
In women, the portion of the brain dealing with pleasure and pain showed more activity. No one is quite sure why it triggers different parts of the brain in each sex, but the area that showed the most activity in women's brains is also linked more closely to memory, which could suggest that women are better at recognizing a dangerous situation and avoiding it altogether, whereas men will blindly walk into the same bad scenarios over and over. But even if women have a particularly strong memory for dangerous situations, it may not actually matter at all because it also turns out we are subconsciously drawn to our fears.
Walking into Dark Rooms
One of the most frustrating aspects of horror movies is the innate idiocy of the characters. They walk down stairs they should never walk down, they go in rooms no one should ever go in and they have sex in woods where no one has any business sexing. The massive death toll in horror films isn't generally a product of the killer's genius, but the senselessness of his victims as the shuffle directly into conspicuous traps while shouting over a faulty flashlight, "Is anyone there?" Yet even though it seems ridiculous that anyone would willingly walk into a creepy, dark house that's notorious for spitting out corpses, it's entirely possible that if you were in the same situation, you would do the same damn thing.
"What if there's some nudity in there? I'm gonna risk it."
The psychology behind it:
While it certainly pays as a species to avoid the terrible things of which we are afraid, we as humans are also capable of recognizing that some of our fears are completely stupid. We then have the ability to habituate to fear and therefore overcome it. Habituation is essentially just the desensitization to any stimuli, whether that be good or bad stimuli, and it's happening to you every day. You may notice that horror movies that used to scare you as a child aren't quite as terrifying anymore. Your constant exposure to the horror makes it difficult for the movie to surprise you with novel stimuli. Well the same thing happens with all the fears and phobias in your daily life as well.
What's more, there's a tangible feeling of reward when you overcome a phobia by exposing yourself to it, and that activates the pleasure center in your brain. Avoiding fears, on the other hand, can fill you with a sense of failure and unhappiness. Psychologist Dr. Noam Shpancer from Psychology Today writes,
"When you avoid something that scares you, you tend to experience a sense of failure. Every time you avoid a feared object or situation, your anxiety gains strength while you lose some. Every time you avoid the feared object or situation, you accumulate another experience of failure and another piece of evidence attesting to your weakness."
As a result, the reward of habituation and the failure of avoiding phobias gradually make us addicted to finding and facing new fears. Presumably, it's comparable to standing on the edge of a cliff and feeling the urge to jump -- you know the consequences would be catastrophic, but there's something inside you that says, "Just try it, pussy."
"What's the worst that could happen?"
The characters in horror movies are compelled to explore dark basements and sinister forests, not because they want to assure themselves that their fear is ridiculous, but because they don't like being called a pussy by their insides any more than you do. Also, if your guts are more sexist than science, you should get that checked out.

.NET 4.5: Size-on-disk improvements

In the next release of .NET (version 4.5), less disk space will be used to store .NET on your system. In fact, roughly 40% less space than is required today in some cases. This is a significant milestone for .NET. Besides taking up less physical space inside your desktop PC, .NET 4.5 will fit onto your more disk-space-limited devices (like a tablet, for example...). Here, we meet Layla Driscoll, the Program Manager for this project, and Ashok Kamath, the Development Lead for this project.
How do you make something 40% smaller and not remove a bunch of stuff? What did they do? What strategies were employed? What did they learn about the overall .NET system while figuring out how to take up less room when installed? What's next?
Tune in.
Oops, something didn't work.
Good job .
Does it apply on portable version too ?
Very nice......hopefully this will mean that devices that currently support subsets of .Net (like the .Net compact framework) will be able to switch to providing support for the full .Net framework. Good job!
After seeing the work like this for Silverlight, I knew it was a matter of time before it got into the base framework.
edit: That IS rock and roll.
good video with some nice information
I ask my self sometime how you make something 100% bigger without adding a bunch of stuff. If you made that it's no problem to shrink the size by 40%!
Awesome! Every megabyte counts.
So how much Space does it actually use?
Where is the audio only download?
really cool to see these kinds of investments in the full .net framework
maybe a single .net framework is not just a pipedream
@Mike:Good question. Looking into it.
Thanks, see it there now
..what about terabyte WinSxS**ks ?? .net is small anyway ;/
I have one concern:
Did you take these concerns into account when designing the disk size "improvements"?

March's Critical Care Medicine (CCM) contains three studies of interest to nurses: 1) "Dopamine Versus Norepinephrine in the Treatment of Septic Shock: A Meta-Analysis," which concludes that dopamine is associated with greater mortality and more arrhythmic events; 2) "Deviations From Evidence-based Clinical Management Guidelines Increase Mortality in Critically Injured Trauma Patients," a randomized, multicenter study of recombinant factor VII that used guidelines for damage control, transfusion and mechanical ventilation; and 3) "Haloperidol Prophylaxis Decreases Delirium Incidence in Elderly Patients After Noncardiac Surgery: A Randomized Controlled Trial," which states that the low-dose intravenous haloperidol was "well-tolerated."
7. EVIDENCE BNP associated with higher risk of AKI after cardiac surgery
"Pre-Operative Serum Brain Natriuretic Peptide (BNP) and Risk of Acute Kidney Injury (AKI) After Cardiac Surgery" found that elevated BNP increases the risk of postoperative AKI in high-risk patients having cardiac surgery. "… preoperative BNP may be a valuable component of future efforts to improve preoperative risk stratification and discrimination among surgical candidates," concludes the study published online Feb. 9 by Circulation.
8. EVIDENCE Circulation publishes survival predictive model for CABG
"Predictors of Long-Term Survival Following Coronary Artery Bypass Grafting (CABG) Surgery: Results From The Society of Thoracic Surgeons Adult Cardiac Surgery Database (The ASCERT Study)," published online Feb. 23 by Circulation, presents a long-term survival prediction model for isolated CABG. "This provides valuable information for shared decision-making, comparative effectiveness research, quality improvement and provider profiling," concludes the study of nearly 350,000 patients from more than 900 hospitals.
9. RESOURCE AACN online pharmacology course is most comprehensive available

Notable Quote
"As an engaged leader, you do not rely on your authority to achieve positive outcomes. Employees follow you not because they fear you, but because they identify with you and your vision for the work unit. Your credibility is established by simply telling employees who you are and what you're about. Then you become that person. You lead by example, which is the highest form of leadership. You remain true to your values and steadfast in your pursuit of excellence." — Michael Henry Cohen, "Time to Lead: The Ultimate Guide to Employee Engagement."

Star athletes in the National Football League may possess rare gifts on the field, but when it comes to spelling and punctuation, 7-year-olds can do better.
Just ask the second-graders at Buffalo's Elmwood Franklin School.
In preparation for today's Super Bowl Sunday frenzy, these kids spent a little time – really, it didn't take long – correcting the social media posts of Patriots wide receiver Wes Welker, Detroit Lions wide receiver Titus Young and 49ers cornerback Chris Culliver.
The pupils actually have Culliver to thank for the unusual lesson.
When the San Francisco player landed in the hot seat last week for making some unflattering comments about gays, second-grade teacher Mark Saldanha decided to look up the Super Bowler's Twitter page.
"Basically, it was a warehouse of spelling mistakes and punctuation lapses," he said. "I looked at it and thought, 'My second-graders can do better than this, so why not put this to the test?' "
Saldanha proceeded to sift through a gold mine of instruction-worthy Twitter messages, or "tweets," from players across the NFL before finally settling on three players. Then he broke his class of 30 into small groups and set them to work.
They didn't need much time.
"About a minute and a half," Saldanha said, before bursting out laughing. "No, just kidding. Honestly, groups were finished in about 10 minutes. And there was zero-to-minimal teacher assistance."
The tweet that was most easily corrected by all groups was Culliver's.
I pray to God I'm never dieing broke
"They all caught the word 'dying,' " Saldanha said.
Welker's tweet was a little harder for the students, because the spelling mistake wasn't quite as obvious:
Merry Christmas everyone. My God bless you all!
It's possible he really meant "my" God, as in "oh, my God" or "my god versus your god," but chances are he just forgot the letter "a" in "may." Welker may have caught more passes than any other player in the league since joining the Patriots, but apparently even he drops the ball when it comes to spelling.
The Elmwood Franklin kids made the fix.
"Not all of them knew who the players were, but a lot of them knew who Wes Welker was, just because they were Bills fans and they hate the Patriots," Saldanha said.
Finally, there's the tweet from Titus Young Sr., the quarrelsome Detroit player who had so many bad run-ins with the Lions coaches this season that he was transferred to the injured reserve list in December:
It's true I could be alot better, But wit the football
This 54-character gem featured two spelling mistakes and both a capitalization and a punctuation error.
Deadspin.com editor Reuben Fischer-Baum, who also picked up on this story, wrote about this tweet.
"Let's give a little credit here, given that this is about as humble as Titus Young ever gets on Twitter. 'Alot' and 'wit' are wrong, and 'But' shouldn't be capitalized, and yet the dude nails 'It's.' I [mess] that up at least once a day," he said.
Saldanha, who is in his fourth year of teaching, said that while he had a number of NFL tweets to pick from for his creative lesson, many had to be disqualified.
"You have to pick the ones that are age-appropriate for a second-grader," he said. "A lot of NFL players like to talk about their girlfriends, and not in the nicest manner."
The influence of Twitter in Saldanha's lesson plans extends beyond the NFL. One of the teacher's goals is to have kids work on their "21st-century writing skills," he said. That includes having students convey a clear message in 140 characters or less – the limit of a single tweet.
As for the future, Saldanha said, he might sift through politicians' tweets for his next Twitter assignment or from whatever group strikes his interest. And he'll probably pick on NFL players again next year.
"They should know that we'll always be watching," he said. "We'll keep doing this until people start spell-checking their tweets."

Six people safely escaped a fire early Friday in Cumberland County that started when a boy played with a lighter, according to fire officials.
Firefighters were called to the 200 block of Bosler Avenue in Lemoyne about 2:30 a.m.
A 4-year-old boy in the upstairs apartment started the fire, a fire official said.
The boy was in bed with his father and was playing with a lighter, a fire official said.
When the bed was set on fire, the father woke up and alerted everyone else in the building, a fire official said.
The second floor was destroyed and the first floor suffered smoke and water damage.
One firefighter was taken to the hospital with a minor injury.

Dear Liz,
How do I let my (serious) boyfriend know that $100 cash toward a home elliptical machine, while I appreciate it, is not exactly what I'd hope for? It's not the amount. It is the lack of romantic trappings per se. Am I being ungrateful? He's usually pretty romantic and thoughtful.
It is the thought that counts
Dear, "is the thought..."
I agree - it is the thought and communication of and carrying out of the thought that counts. Allow me to talk to your boyfriend for a moment: First of all, I hope that wasn't a subtle hint about her need for weight loss. (That discussion is better carried out void of special occasion) otherwise, if that is what you can afford and what she wants - a note ("lovely sweetie pie") that includes "honey (fill in blank), I want to contribute to your gift wish for your own personal new year. It is an unselfish desire, because the whole family can benefit from it.
"Along with this, I offer my help to pick up, set up and/or assemble said elliptical and help you have your favorite music playing as you work out. ..." Attach it to a small bouquet of flowers, or such. So you can be practical and still express a lot of romance and love.
P.S. My favorite gifts so far from my husband include dirt for the foundation of the house, the floor of my barn and a custom made, by him, stall door for the goats.
How's that??
Dear Liz,
I have three children in school in Mount Pleasant, one at each level. I need your advice. Do you think the kids should be included parent-teacher conferences - at least for part?
Wanting my kids to best understand
Dear "wanting..."
You are on the right track. As a school counselor for 10 years, I developed a philosophy about this. Children need to learn to own their education. They need to learn early, that the more they put in to it themselves (and with appropriate help and support) the greater their choices in the future including their lifestyle and happiness. It is a gift.
I think teachers should be able to talk adult to adult as part of the process - but I believe and have seen great strides made because of this - that the students need to know and take ownership of what they can do to improve or stay strong. As a counselor I often facilitated these meetings to make sure it was clear all around.
Also, to facilitate understanding how and when the student can ask questions and get help. Follow up at home would include helping that student get organized enough to be as self sufficient as possible.
Great question.

Will NBC show every competing skater's performance on regular tv? If not, where will they be shown?
For authenticated U.S. viewers, live streaming of all figure skating (and all competition for all sports) will be available on NBCOlympics.com.
For more information, see this GS post:
The cable network NBCSN also will show live coverage of all figure skating, EXCEPT for the Feb 6 team skating (Men's SP and Pairs SP).
For more information, see this GS post:
Thanks, golden.
We were watching an episode of Malcolm in the Middle the other day (S3 Ep22 Monkey). One of the characters (Craig) is watching TV, and I thought - and exclaimed: "Is that Yagudin? It looks like his Winter costume!" (My eyesight is very bad and I believe the TV screen shown was rather fuzzy as well.) "I don't know," said my husband, "but it does look like him."
I know this is pretty "old news" - well, obviously! - but since I just saw it myself, and was quite excited by it, I thought I'd just share.
Has our team left for Sochi yet? Travel is rather "iffy" these days with delays and cancellations.
But my real question, has there ever been an athlete who got to the olympics too late to compete? I remember Emily had trouble getting out of NY when she was told she was to replace Michelle.
i think most of the us figure skating team is leaving on feb 2
Sorry for repeating what I have said elsewhere:
As of last year, USFS planned to set up a base in Graz for its Sochi athletes.
Don't know if that is still true, but I think it could be. Per @LynnRutherford, Denis Ten has been with Gold and Frank Carroll in Oberstdorf, so Gold's prep there might be a Team Carroll thing (as opposed to a Team USA thing).

LOCKPORT – Paul S. Turley was not in Niagara County Court on Monday to learn that a jury convicted him on charges that he sexually abused two children. But his victims and the prosecutors are holding out hope that he will be face to face with a judge when he is scheduled to be sentenced April 19.
"I can't express how bad I want [Turley captured]," a male relative of one of his victims told reporters. "I know it'll be a great day. It'll be closure for us and the girls."
"I think he should hear the comments that are going to be made [at sentencing]," Assistant District Attorney Cheryl L. Nichols said.
"He can run from a lot of things. He can't run from the verdict and he can't run from the kind of person he is," Assistant District Attorney Elizabeth R. Donatello said.
A jury deliberated for 2½ hours Monday before convicting Turley, 47, of molesting two girls in North Tonawanda between August 1996 and June 1998.
County Judge Sara Sheldon Farkas, who presided over the five-day trial, could sentence Turley to as long as 39 years in prison on his convictions for first- and second-degree course of sexual conduct against a child and first-degree sexual abuse.
The victims in the case, both now 21 years old, told police in November 2011 that they had been repeatedly fondled by Turley when they were 5 to 7 years old.
One of the women said she was fondled again by Turley on Christmas Day 2003, when she was 12.
Turley, 47, of Lincoln Avenue, Dunkirk, left the Niagara County Courthouse at the lunch break last Wednesday, just after jury selection was completed, and has not been seen or heard from since that afternoon, when he told defense attorney D. Daniel Stevanovic by phone that he was in the parking lot of a Tim Hortons. He didn't say which one.
Since then, his wife, Diane, also has disappeared, as have the family dogs.
Last week, Farkas ordered the forfeiture of a $50,000 bail bond, posted by Turley's mother a few days after his arrest Jan. 4, 2012. If he is found, Turley will be held without bail; if not, he will be sentenced in absentia as the search goes on, Farkas said.
Three jurors interviewed after the verdict said they all wondered where Turley had gone, but no one told them. Farkas and the attorneys discussed the notion of telling the jury he had left, but decided not to do so.
Farkas met with the jury after the verdict and told them what had really happened.
The jurors interviewed said they didn't think Turley's presence would have made much difference in the outcome.
"We did not take it in mind," said Brandi Simmang of North Tonawanda. "The damning piece of evidence in the trial was the phone call."
The prosecution played a recording of a Dec. 19, 2011, phone call placed to Turley by one of the victims, which pertained primarily to her own situation.
During the call, Turley said, "Well, maybe I'm just a bad person. You want to blame me for everything, go ahead … You can spit on my grave when I die, I mean, if it makes you feel any better."
The woman who made the call tried to bring the other victim's situation into the conversation, but Turley denied any contact with her. "An opportunity like that would never come up," he said on the recording.
But Turley told the first victim, "In my misguided mind, the things we were doing together were not bad."
Nichols said, "We asked [the jury] for justice. We think they gave us justice in this case."

JERRY McBRIDE/Durango Herald
JERRY McBRIDE/Durango Herald
Homeowners: It�s time to keep an eye peeled for noxious weeds, as in obnoxious weeds that seem to sprout up everywhere this time of year.
Don�t despair, there is a way to control them and meet the demands of county and city ordinances.
�Effective weed management is important to keep land healthy and productive and not becoming overrun by invasive plant species,� said Steve Barkley, code compliance officer with the Durango Police Department.
Identifying noxious weeds
Noxious weeds are plants that exhibit aggressive traits such as pushing out other plants over time � the most aggressive noxious weeds can become a �monoculture,� La Plata County Weed Manager Rod Cook said.
The city of Durango and La Plata County work together to enforce two �management goals� that homeowners and landowners should be aware of this spring.
Management goal No. 1 aims to eradicate noxious weeds that are not yet widespread.
�The focus on those weeds is trying to keep intensive pressure on them and not letting them flower and go to seed every year,� Cook said. Over a period of time, once you have exhausted the seed soil bank, there is hope for eradication.�
Management goal No. 2 includes weeds that have been present in the county for a number of years with the goal of containment and reduction of spread over time.
�Eradication might not be possible with those weeds. They�ve been established here for a number of years, but it just depends on the effort that an individual land owner puts forward,� Cook said.
The process
What happens if property owners don�t report noxious weeds or simply are not aware of them?
Infestations are identified by either a third-party complaint or discovered by a patrol of code compliance or the county weed office.
�If they are not aware of the infestation, they get a notification letter from us,� Cook said.
After a notification letter is sent, home and landowners have 10 days to either �manage the weeds according to which plan they fall under, or come up with an effective management plan,� Cook said.
�If they don�t know what to do about it, we can do a field visit and show them what the problem is,� Cook said.
The county weed office manages weeds that grow on public lands, but if the weeds are adjacent to private properties, the county will issue a �notice of need to inspect property,� or a �notice of presence of noxious weed letter,� Cook said.
Once a letter is received, the property owner has 10 days to respond, solve the problem or identify a plan to solve it.
�If we see something or are notified of something, we will advise the property owner,� Barkley said.
�If someone has noxious weeds, they need to abate them within in 10 days of their courtesy notification,� Barkley said.
Without compliance from the landowner, the city will either abate the problem and charge the property owner or the property owner may be summoned to court, said Barkley.
�If they refuse to acknowledge the problem, the county will manage the weeds if they don�t do it, and the bill is presented to the landowner,� Cook said.
�If it is not paid in three days, then it is added to the property tax,� Cook said. �We give the landowner a lot of chances to reply.�
The private landowner is also entitled to a hearing before the Undesirable Plant and Rodent Advisory Commission as to why they should not assess a tax lien on the landowner or occupant�s property for the costs of management.
The neighborly thing
Noxious weeds can spread readily to adjacent areas and push up into other areas causing land and property damage because native plants can�t survive with these non-native species, Cook said.
�We look at the properties adjacent to the area where an infestation is reported to make sure that weeds haven�t run into other areas,� Cook said.
Officials are also asking property owners to look out for this year�s high-priority weeds: the plumeless thistle and hemlock.
�The plumeless thistle and hemlock are the problem weeds we run into most in this part of the state,� Barkley said.
�These particularly aggressive species of weed become more widespread every year,� Cook said.
The plumeless thistle can be identified by a spiny stem, and purple bloom.
�It is a highly aggressive species because of its high seed production,� Cook said.
Other weeds are poisonous to livestock and humans and can become fatal over time.
Every year, Cook notices a �fair amount� of poisoning from infestations of Russian knapweed, which is a priority for noxious weed managers because it is poisonous to any equine species such as horses and mules.
�Animals that are confined under an infestation of this weed, get poisoned over time after they accumulate 50 to 70 percent of their body weight,� Cook said. �It�s an accumulative poison in the animals� system- they cant get rid of it.�
New weeds that show up in the area need to be identified as being aggressive or not.
Geography helps Colorado
�Most weed infestations come from the coast and work inland, so we�re behind, fortunately, because we are centrally located in a high-mountain desert,� Cook said. �Aggressive species have been slower getting here which allows us to be proactive about management.�
�C-listed weeds,� such as the common dandelion, have no laws governing them and are optional for management, Cook said.
�If county or private landowners want to manage those, it is up to them, those types of weeds are already widespread across the state,� Cook said.
�Without having the expertise of knowing what is considered a noxious weed, property owners are encouraged to contact the county noxious weeds office or the code compliance line for the city of Durango,� Barkley said, �If they see something that they�re not sure about, don�t hesitate to notify city or county officials.�
�Landowners will be fine as long as they monitor their property and report or manage noxious weeds,� Barkley said.

What is Hospice?
Hospice is a holistic approach to caring for people who are very ill. It involves a team of trained professionals, available 24 hours a day, who provide medical attention, pain management and emotional and spiritual support tailored to an indivudal's needs and wishes.
Where is Hospice of Summa offered?
We offfer Hospice at Home services in many northeast Ohio counties including Summit, Medina, Portage and Stark counties. We offer inpatient hospice care at Summa Akron City Hospital, Summa Barberton Hospital and Summa Wadsworth Rittman Hospital.
Hospice isn't a place - it's a concept of care that can be provided anywhere. Summa offers hospice care where the patient and family will benefit most - a patient's home, a nursing facility or within many of our northeast Ohio hospitals.
What else should I know?
In addition to caring for the patient, hospice teams also provide compassion and support to loved ones during the illness and the grieving process. Our hospice team focuses on delivering medical, psychosocial, emotional and spiritual support, most of which is provided in the patient's own home. This approach enables families to remain together where they are most comfortable.
At Hospice of Summa, we have been providing uncompromising quality care to terminally ill patients and the people who love and care for them. Our hospice services allow patients and their families to maximize each and every day, while we help to fill in the gaps with individually designed patient care plans and a supportive network of medical professionals and volunteers.

|Summer 2011 Shutdown Update
The 2011 ALS summer shutdown is turning out to be quite productive. Read updates of shutdown activities and see pictures here. This page will be updated, so check back regularly!
THE DOME of the Building 6 roof is in need of repair both inside and out
The exterior of the roof is nearly re-shingled! See the newest images here, taken from atop the dome!
Construction crews built scaffolding around the outside of the dome's roof so they could access the whole dome safely.
Asphalt shingles that used to leak during heavy rains will be replaced with "cool roof" technology.
The dome is half done in this photograph. You can clearly see the old (bottom) and new (top) shingles!
Construction crews have been hard at work all month reroofing the ALS dome! What a gorgeous view they get from the office!
It's nearly complete. The ALS's new "cool roof" will be complete soon!
No update on the dome's interior. The plastic sheeting is still in place. Stay tuned to see the final result...
Scaffolding was built on top of the large crane in the ALS building. Workers will be scraping lead paint away from 30% of the dome's interior. A "lead lock" coating will then be applied to protect occupants from exposure to the remaining lead paint.
A plastic sheet now hangs between the interior of the dome roof and the delicate controls below. This will prevent stray pieces of hardware or lead paint chips from falling.
Super Bend Magnets get new cold heads - every year
This is one of the ALS's three super bend magnets (super conducting center bend in SR 4, 8, and 12). The cold heads (helium compressors) on the magnets must be swapped out every year. This involves warming the magnets up from their sub five kelvin operating temperature, breaking the vacuum, swapping the cold head, reestablishing the vacuum and cooling the magnet back down. This process takes a minimum of three weeks and is one of the things that drives our need for an annual extended shutdown.
Sector 6 gets ready for a new Elliptically Polarizing Undulator
This EPU has been undergoing magnetic testing in the building 15 high bay for several months. It's final location is expected to be in sector 6.
This new vacuum chamber was installed during the shutdown, as well as a new chicane magnet. These preparations have prepared this downstream section of straight 6 for the new EPU, which will be installed over several 2-day shutdowns in the coming months.
POWER SUPPLIES are also being replaced during this shutdown. An old QFA and an old SD power supply were both removed in preparation for newer models.
Crews remove the old sextupole power supply using a counter weight and a 4-ton crane. Two new sextupole power supplies will replace this old one, providing a tested backup should it ever be needed.
The old QFA power supply was also removed in preparation of a new one. The new QFA will be less sensitive to line voltage sags that cause beam dumps. Both power supply upgrade projects will aid in more reliable beam delivery, but are mainly to replace aging equipment and keep the ALS running smoothly.
