Toxic hepatitis is an inflammation of your liver in reaction to certain substances to which you're exposed. Toxic hepatitis can be caused by alcohol, chemicals, drugs or nutritional supplements.
In some cases, toxic hepatitis develops within hours or days of exposure to a toxin. In other cases, it may take months of regular use before signs and symptoms of toxic hepatitis appear.
The symptoms of toxic hepatitis often go away when exposure to the toxin stops. But toxic hepatitis can permanently damage your liver, leading to irreversible scarring of liver tissue (cirrhosis) and in some cases to liver failure.
Mild forms of toxic hepatitis may not cause any symptoms and may be detected only by blood tests. When signs and symptoms of toxic hepatitis occur, they may include:
See your doctor right away if you have any signs or symptoms that worry you.
Overdoses of some medications, such as acetaminophen (Tylenol, others), can lead to liver failure. Get immediate medical care if you think an adult or a child has taken an overdose of acetaminophen or develops signs or symptoms of a possible acetaminophen overdose, such as:
If you suspect an acetaminophen overdose, immediately call 911, your local emergency services or, in the United States, a poison control center at 800-222-1222. An acetaminophen overdose can be fatal.
Toxic hepatitis occurs when your liver develops inflammation because of exposure to a toxic substance. Toxic hepatitis may also develop when you take too much of a prescription or over-the-counter medication.
One of the liver's roles involves removing and breaking down most drugs and chemicals from your bloodstream. Breaking down toxins creates byproducts that can damage the liver. Although the liver has a great capacity for regeneration, constant exposure to toxic substances can cause serious, sometimes irreversible harm.
Toxic hepatitis can be caused by:
Factors that may increase your risk of toxic hepatitis include:
The inflammation associated with toxic hepatitis can lead to liver damage and scarring. Over time, this scarring, called cirrhosis, makes it difficult for your liver to do its job. Eventually cirrhosis leads to liver failure. The only treatment for chronic liver failure is to replace your liver with a healthy one from a donor (liver transplant).
Make an appointment with your family doctor or a general practitioner if you have any signs or symptoms that worry you. If you're thought to have a liver problem, such as toxic hepatitis, you'll likely be referred to a liver specialist (hepatologist).
Because appointments can be brief, and because there's often a lot to cover, it's a good idea to be well prepared. Here's some information to help you get ready and know what to expect from your doctor.
Your time with your doctor is limited, so preparing a list of questions will help you make the most of your time together. List your questions from most important to least important in case time runs out. For toxic hepatitis, some basic questions to ask your doctor include:
In addition to the questions that you've prepared to ask your doctor, don't hesitate to ask questions during your appointment at any time.
Your doctor is likely to ask you a number of questions. Being ready to answer them may allow more time to cover points you want to address. Your doctor may ask:
Tests and procedures used to diagnose toxic hepatitis include:
Treatments for toxic hepatitis include:
Because it's not possible to know how you'll react to a particular medication, toxic hepatitis can't always be prevented. But you may reduce your risk of liver problems if you:

ILLINI KEY: Defend against the 3-point shot and take care of the basketball.
TERRIERS KEY: Keep Illini out of the paint while attacking Nnanna Egwu to get him into foul trouble.
NOTEWORTHY: This is the first meeting between the two schools. … Groce served as an assistant at Ohio State in 2008 when the Buckeyes won the NIT. … Illinois is the first Big Ten team to travel to Agganis Arena since Michigan in 2006. … Jon Ekey is the only active Illini to have played in the NIT during his career. He started two games in the 2012 tournament while at Illinois State.
QUOTABLE: "It's OK to be disappointed but we will never be discouraged, and I think those guys have really adhered to that late in the year." — Illinois coach John Groce
PREDICTION: Illinois 67, Boston 57
— Jamal Collier
CHAMPAIGN — Late Sunday night, after the Illinois basketball team had found out its postseason fate, Rayvonte Rice and Nnanna Egwu were shooting around at the Ubben practice facility.
The Illini are not going to the NCAA tournament for the fourth time in seven years. Instead they will be a No. 2 seed in the National Invitation Tournament. While some teams may have trouble getting excited for the second-tier tournament, Illini fans should quell any worries about this team staying motivated.
"I'm not as worried about that with this group because we've been really, really tough," coach John Groce said. "You don't go through what we've went through this season and play the way we've played here late in the year unless you're able to deal with some things.
"It's OK to be disappointed but we will never be discouraged, and I think those guys have really adhered to that late in the year."
Extra mileage
Illinois will travel to play seventh-seed Boston University at Agganis Arena in Boston on Wednesday (6 p.m., ESPN2). Although the Illini are the higher seed, State Farm Center is undergoing renovation so they will play all of their games in the tournament on the road.
Some have suggested Illinois play in Chicago or at Illinois State or some venue near Champaign, but Groce shot down any of those rumors.
"That wasn't even discussed," Groce said. "I knew from jump street when it came to this particular year and it came to postseason, if in fact we were in a tournament that required us or gave us the opportunity to play at home, that we would not be able to do that."
The Illini made inquiries about a change of venue to the NCAA in 2010, the last time they were in the NIT, and their request was denied. Illinois has been better away from home lately anyway — earning huge wins late in the season at Iowa and Michigan State and playing well in the conference tournament in Indianapolis.
This marks the fifth all-time appearance for Illinois in the NIT, where they own an overall record of 7-4. Overall, Illinois enters this game as winners of five of its last seven. Groce believes his team is playing its best basketball of the year and has finally clicked at the right time.
"Us getting the two seed kind of put in perspective how close we really were to the opportunity to get to the NCAA tournament," Egwu said. "We also look at it as a great opportunity to keep on playing and show how good we really are. I think we're playing real well, we keep getting better every day and for us to just stop right now would have been kind of disappointing."
Page 2 of 2 - Boston U. won the regular season Patriot League championship but lost in the conference tournament, failing to earn an automatic bid to the NCAA. Regular-season conference champions that do not win their tournament do earn an automatic bid to the NIT. The Terriers live by the 3-pointer, which makes up nearly 40 percent of their offense.
The Illini packed a little extra for this trip. If they win Wednesday, they will travel straight to Clemson or Georgia State to play either Friday or Saturday.
"I think the experience of playing in postseason — there's a carrot out there for all 32 teams to get an opportunity to play in Madison Square Garden," Groce said. "… I think it's great from an experience standpoint to have an opportunity to do that."

If you think Bentley's new song "Drunk on a Plane" is fun, just wait until you see this video. It's what flying should be (well, minus the drunk pilots!). The singer shows off his flying skills (he's a licensed pilot in real life), his passion for partying and his ability to rock a mustache – all in less than five minutes.
"There are a few subplots working underneath the main story that totally crack me up," Bentley tells PEOPLE Country. "If you watch it a couple times, you start to pick up on more funny details."
Footage of the video plays on the big screens of Bentley's Riser tour – and it's not just fans that are loving it. "I have a hard time not turning my back to the crowd to watch it myself," the singer says. "So many hilarious moments."

The Right to Life - Mark Fletcher - 20-02-2007
I felt very moved this afternoon when encountering a street stall manned by volunteers connected with the Society for the Protection of Unborn Children (SPUC) in Dover town centre. I have read His Holiness Pope Shenouda III's condemnation of the outrageous crime of abortion, and felt heartened.
It was so easy to see the Face of Christ in those caring, wonderful people standing at the table in the pouring rain trying to get signatures for their petition.
2007 marks the 40th anniversary of the British law change that marked in effect the freedom of choice to kill unborn children. More than 6 million babies have been killed since 1967.

Right to Life - John Charmley - 20-02-2007
Dear Mark,
Thank you for posting these links and the address.
It is a sign of the sickness of the age that in an era when 'Rights' are all the rage, 'a woman's right to choose' should trump someone else's 'right to life'.
Of course no one wishes to stand in judgement on any woman driven to this point by despair, darkness, and secular advice; our love and our prayers must be offered, along with our tears.
But for those who proclaim this as a 'lifestyle choice', well, they are lucky, they have a life and can make a choice - they might spare a thought for those who do not.
May Our Most Blessed Mother, the Holy Theotokos care for the souls of these murdered infants even as she did for Our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ, and may they come to His peace and know His love and care; and may God forgive those poor souls who are driven to this wicked act; and may he have mercy on those who promulgate this wicked act, and may he turn their hearts from their sin, and towards His love and compassion.
In Christ,
Right to Life - John Charmley - 30-03-2007
Dear Brothers and Sisters in Christ,
At the moment the media in Britain is pretty much saturated with coverage of the bicentenary of the British abolition of the slave trade, and much of the commentary is along the lines of 'how could our forebears have accepted this evil so easily?'
Perhaps the answer lies in examining the beam in our own eye. As a society we accept and even advocate the idea of abortion; we stand by whilst millions of unborn infants are killed; we seem, as a society, to accept the sophistical argument that because the child is in the womb it is not a child; and we accept the discriminatory argument that the 'woman's right to choose' trumps all other 'rights'.
I can see where this differs from the sophistical argument that black people are not really human because they are not white; and I can see where it differs from the discriminatory argument that black people, being less than human, do not have the rights that white people have; in these latter cases acceptance of the arguments led to a horrible trade in people, degradation for all involved; untold suffering for those sold into slavery; and early death for millions; in the former cases, no unborn child even survives.
Is this too harsh and unChristian a view? Or, in years to come, will our descendants look back on this society using the same tone of voice we now use about slavery? Might abortion be the modern practice which the future condemns us for, even as we condescend to the past?
In Christ,
Unborn Children - forum - 30-03-2007
Dear John
This is a difficult area which has no simple solution because we have left behind or dismissed the once accepted right of a child to be brought up if possible, within in a loving family unit. How do we return to this basic premiss which is so derided by this modern generation? One would think that the various reports that keep pointing to the possible cause of todays children being so lost and out of control as being linked to this one fact, the penny would start to drop! Till people start to recognise the responsiblity that they have to one another and how their actions can effect and even damage future generations can we hope to regain a society that is not so ego centric.
With blessing in Our Lord

Save the children? - John Charmley - 30-03-2007
Dear Jackie-Sarah,
You are quite right. Of course, there has never been any guarantee that a two-parent family will be loving, but common sense, and experience, as well as the surveys you cite, suggest that it is the least imperfect way to bring up children; the great tragedy is that so many will not be brought into the world at all.
In Christ,
Children - John Charmley - 01-04-2007
Dear Jackie-Sarah,
How sad it is that in our society so many seem to have succumbed to the notion that children are simply another possession which we can choose to 'have' or 'discard'.
It is ironic, given the way in which women's groups have (rightly) identified the commodification of women as one of the chief effects of pornography, that so many of them go on to do just that with children, arguing for a 'woman's right to choose'.
This is essentially a liberal, secular argument, which posits the existence of a 'right' to choose, and elevates it above a 'right' to life. It goes to show the tendentiousness of arguments about 'rights'. Rights do not exist in the abstract; someone has to formulate them. For thousands of years no one 'knew' that being 'human' conferred any rights on you.
Christianity, by emphasising that each of us is precious in the eyes of the God that made us, played a major role in making human society more humane; without it, it appears unlikely that slavery would have been abolished in the west. But Christianity is truly radical, it preaches God's ways, not our own, and it calls us to repentance and amendment of life - not a series of self-serving soft options where we get what we want.
Children are a precious gift from God; they are also a trial and a call to self-martyrdom; no one is forced to have them, and everyone should think carefully about what they are taking on: a life time's care and concern - and there's no instruction manual and no money-back guarantee; equally, we should not, as a society, be eliminating these little ones on the pretext that because they are still in the womb they are not 'human' and have no 'rights'.
It is a shame that it has taken so long for Governments to get back, albeit in a hesitant and (typically) half-hearted fashion, to the notion that families need some support from the taxation system.
Children are the future of any society, and one can tell much about a society's attitude to its future by the way it treats its children; does our attitude say anything good about that?
In Christ,

Harrell does not allow the newspaper to view receipts or itemized invoices accounting for the spending.Sept. 26, 2012: Harrell meets with an Associated Press reporter and produces documents — credit card and phone bills, hotel invoices and pay stubs — he says back up the spending. Harrell also tells the AP he has moved $23,000 back into his campaign account because he couldn't account for the expenditures.Oct. 9, 2012: S.C. Attorney General Alan Wilson releases a statement saying the House Ethics Committee must have the first opportunity to investigate Harrell. Wilson says it is premature for his office to ask the State Law Enforcement Division to investigate Harrell. "The process must proceed as prescribed by state law," Wilson says. Mid-October 2012: Harrell's office releases a formal explanation for how much his plane costs to operate, saying the speaker reimbursed himself less than the fair market value of his flights. Harrell's accounting of how he paid himself back raises questions about the accuracy of the reimbursements and whether the money helped him subsidize some of the cost of plane ownership.Fall 2012: Harrell's campaign sends out a direct mail piece ahead of the November election claiming he is being attacked unfairly. "Why is Bobby Being Attacked by the Liberal Media? Because he is providing conservative leadership in SC." Harrell's mailer carries similar themes to a newsletter he posted on his website and sent to supporters earlier in the fall.Winter 2012-13: Harrell shields his flight records from public view using a Federal Aviation Administration-approved program.Jan. 22, 2013: The S.C. Policy Council, a limited-government think tank, releases emails and correspondence to reporters dating back to 2006 when Harrell was seeking state approval to begin operating his drug-repackaging company. The group raises questions about whether Harrell sought or received special treatment for the company, which Harrell denies.FEB. 8, 2013: The Post and Courier publishes a report detailing a $23,000 payment by a political action committee affiliated with Harrell to advertising firm Rawle Murdy. In its report to the State Ethics Commission, the PAC included a $23,000 payment to Rawle Murdy in October, describing it as an election expense. That description raised eyebrows among opponents of the project to complete Interstate 526, because Rawle Murdy rarely does electoral work. The firm worked to push the completion of the interstate. Rawle Murdy President Bruce Murdy acknowledges that he did work for the PAC, but would not say what sort of work he did, referring such questions to the PAC. The group does not respond to requests for comment, and its website is no longer available.Feb. 8-9, 2013: The Post and Courier and the Policy Council's reporting arm publish reports based on records showing a group of state and pharmacy officials who expressed concerns that Harrell used his political power as he sought to help his company. The records were obtained under the S.C. Freedom of Information Act. The newspaper also reported that, based on an email from a former state official, Harrell's former legislative chief of staff played a role in 2006 when the Charleston Republican was seeking approval for the drug repackaging business.Feb. 14, 2013: Wilson, the state attorney general, asks the State Law Enforcement Division to investigate whether Harrell used his office or campaign fund for personal gain. The accusations were leveled in a complaint by Policy Council President Ashley Landess, who says she presented Wilson with potential conflicts that would arise if the House Ethics Committee investigates a complaint against Harrell.Feb. 28, 2013: SLED confirms it has launched an investigation of Harrell.Stephen Largen
Democrats in the House and Senate, for example, frequently criticize Gov. Nikki Haley's administration and her policy moves.
But when it comes to House Speaker Bobby Harrell, a Charleston Republican who is under fire for allegedly using his campaign account and office for personal gain, legislative Democrats have essentially been silent, generally not uttering a word of criticism or concern.
The reasons why lawmakers have been wary of questioning Harrell, political observers say, go back to the immense power the speaker wields over the legislative process through things such as committee appointments and the cross-party alliances formed in the lower chamber.
Harrell, who presides over the House, arguably is the most powerful elected official in South Carolina.
Several Democrats, including Reps. Harry Ott of St. Matthews and David Mack of North Charleston, describe Harrell not only as a respected colleague but also a friend. He deserves complete due process, not criticism, they said.
"I believe if there are groups out there who want to target any individual in the General Assembly, they could do that," Ott said. "And I don't think we should just take a group's accusations and say it's the truth. Everybody needs an opportunity, if somebody makes a charge against you, I think you should be given ample opportunity to respond to those charges."
In a statement, Harrell dismissed the allegations against him.
"As is typical, political attacks and baseless mudslinging like this situation distract the media's attention much more than it does lawmakers at the (Statehouse)," he said.
And Harrell said he has received strong support while the House is "having an incredibly productive year," passing legislation to fix a ballot issue that caused the removal of hundreds of candidates last year and a bill to dedicate $100 million to road funding without raising taxes.
"The outpouring of support I've received from folks here at home and from my colleagues in the House, particularly from House leadership, reflects that most people are seeing this for what it is, just another baseless politically motivated attack," Harrell said.
A place at the table
The S.C. Policy Council, a limited-government think tank, filed an ethics complaint against Harrell, alleging among other things that he has used his campaign account and legislative office to benefit himself. After meeting with the group's leader, Attorney General Alan Wilson in February asked the State Law Enforcement Division to conduct an initial investigation of the charges.
Mack said he is not concerned about any of the questions that have arisen about Harrell. Having Harrell as the leader of the House has been a great benefit to the Lowcountry, the Democrat said, and losing him would hurt the region.
Talk to Democratic staffers and, when they're permitted to speak without attribution, they will explain that publicly scrutinizing Harrell would be akin to criticizing your doctor just before he's about to put you under anesthesia.
The Republicans' majority in the House is substantial enough that the GOP can pass most legislation without any Democratic votes if Republicans vote as a united group.
Harrell is known generally for giving Democrats a place at the table, bringing them into the legislative process and letting them provide input. He is generally regarded by supporters as a pragmatist.
"He's trying to tug the far right wing of his party to the center, and he finds himself making compromises with responsive Democrats who are willing to deal with him," said Mark Tompkins, a University of South Carolina political scientist.
To others, Harrell is regarded as vindictive.
Harrell's Republican peers also have voiced their support for him, though multiple lawmakers confirm that a thus-far subterranean campaign by multiple Republicans to be Harrell's possible successor in the House already is under way. Others, such as Charleston GOP Rep. Chip Limehouse, say they have heard no such talk.
Limehouse, a Harrell ally, said the controversy surrounding the House speaker has been "a complete non-issue" in the Republican caucus.
Democratic frustration
Dick Harpootlian, the outgoing chairman of the S.C. Democratic Party, said he has been frustrated by the reluctance of Democratic House members to take on Harrell, but he noted that Harrell controls most committee assignments in the House.
"A number of House Democrats have indicated Harrell is a very retributive guy and they are fearful that if they do speak up, they will be kicked off committees," Harpootlian said.
"I guess crumbs are better than nothing."
Haley has said that when she was a House member from Lexington County, Harrell knocked her off a preferred committee because of her push for mandatory on-the-record voting. Harrell has denied Haley's accusation.
An 'unfolding story'
Unless a credible challenger to Harrell emerges or an investigation yields information or charges that make his continued leadership untenable, House members appear unlikely to stop supporting Harrell, who was re-elected to the speaker's post late last year.
A state government watchdog group has called on Harrell to step down as speaker during the investigation, but he has rejected that request. His spokesman called the group, S.C. Common Cause, part of an effort to smear the speaker. Elections for House speaker are held every two years, but House members could attempt to change chamber rules to hold an election sooner.
Tompkins said what happens next in "an unfolding story" could depend in large part on Harrell's relationship with his fellow House members.
"It probably turns on whether the members continue to feel OK about him or not," Tompkins said.
If he is cleared, Harrell's political power likely will remain intact if not grow, said Scott Huffmon, a Winthrop University political scientist who runs the school's polling operation.
"If he is exonerated, (Harrell) will be able to say, 'My political enemies leveled attacks against me but failed,' " Huffmon said.
"While he'll be battered during the process, he'll come out emboldened and maybe a little empowered."
Succession campaign?
Rep. Ralph Norman, a Rock Hill Republican who unsuccessfully ran against Harrell for the speaker's post in 2010, said he wants to let the process play out when it comes to the investigation of Harrell before commenting on it.
Until that time, he said, it would be premature to say whether he would try to succeed Harrell as House speaker.
The next regularly scheduled speaker's election would take place in late 2014.
Norman said there already is chatter about taking Harrell's place.
"Are there talks among members? Oh yeah, there's talks about a lot of things," he said. Norman said he could see four or five Republicans who could be interested in taking over as House speaker.
Ott, the St. Matthews Democrat and former House minority leader, said he hasn't been approached by any Republicans hoping to unseat Harrell, but noted that he likely would be one of the last members to be approached because of his friendship with the Charleston Republican.
To Tompkins and Huffmon, it makes sense that Republicans hoping to be the next House speaker are keeping talk of their interest confined.
"You don't take down the king until you know who's next," Tompkins said.
Huffmon said potential Harrell successors need to start moving early. "But if you are seen moving early and he's exonerated, you're going to be in for a world of hurt," Huffmon said. "At this point, being risk-averse is probably your wisest choice."

Cheesecake Factory, others shamed for 'extreme' calorie offerings
Red Robin, Joe's Crab Shack also on list
While many eateries are adding healthier food options to their menus to appease dieters, an annual survey surmised that virtually every restaurant chain in the U.S. has a menu item that nears — or tops — the 2,000-calorie mark.
The 2014 Xtreme Eating awards, from the Center for Science in the Public Interest, gave finger wags to nine popular chains with the most unhealthy options.
Among the list of "winners," as the CSPI phrased it, The Cheesecake Factory was declared the worst offender. The chain, with 150 locations nationwide, took three of the list's nine distinctions.
The restaurant's Bruléed French Toast (2,780 calories, according to the CSPI), Farfalle with Chicken and Roasted Garlic (2,410 calories, 63 grams of saturated fat) and Reese's Peanut Butter Chocolate Cake Cheesecake (1,500 calories, 21 teaspoons of sugar) were spotlighted.
The study compared eating the aforementioned french toast to swallowing "14 slices of Aunt Jemima frozen Homestyle French Toast stuffed with 8 ounces of Kraft Philadelphia Original Cream Cheese Spread."
In the meat department, Red Robin Gourmet Burgers was slammed for their Monster burger meal, including unlimited steak fries. With a milkshake added, the entire meal totaled over 3,500 calories and more than three day' of saturated fat content.With 470 locations, Red Robin was the biggest chain on the list.
Famous Dave's restaurant, with 200 locations, was ripped for an item called The Big Slab, which contains about 1.5 pounds of ribs on the bone. The Big Slab meal contains 2,770 calories, according to the CSPI.
The study warns seafood lovers to stay away from several of the fried offerings at Joe's Crab Shack. The restaurant's Big "Hook" Up platter, Fish & Chips, Coconut Shrimp and Crab Stuffed Shrimp were singled out as the most extreme options.
Other restaurant chains cited in the study included Maggiano's Little Italy, BJ's Restaurant & Brewhouse and Chevys Fresh Mex.

The couple, both 31, were the guests of honor at the U.K. premiere of Mandela: Long Walk to Freedom.
Kate, in a favorite white Roland Mouret gown that she previously wore to a private dinner in May 2012, and William, in his traditional tuxedo, lit up the chilly West End evening.
The outing comes after a heady 10 days for the two, during which William sung alongside Taylor Swift at a charity gala and Kate led the applause for young athletes at an annual celebration held by SportsAid, one of her patronages.
Thursday night's royal film premiere saw them mingling with actors Idris Elba, who plays the revered former South African president, who died Wednesday, and Naomie Harris, who stars as his ex-wife Winnie.
Asked about having William and Kate along as special guests, Elba told reporters, "Tonight is extra special because this is my country, and when the royals come out to watch a film, it's a big deal. I feel very proud that it's my film, really proud."
Elba also talked about his transformation into the iconic figure, saying that he "worked really hard to pull in all the elements, from the sound of [Mandela's] voice to the way he walks. (He's certainly gotten some major approval: One of Mandela's daughters, Zindzi, was at the premiere and said that her father jokes that he thought Elba was him.)
For her part, Harris, wearing one of Kate's favorite labels, Alexander McQueen, told PEOPLE that it was "fantastic for us" to have the royals at the premiere. "It's such a huge honor. We feel really proud to have them here."
Harris has actually met William several times at polo games, she revealed. "He's lovely. He's very down to earth and charming."
Anticipating meeting Kate, Harris added, "I hear she's just as down to earth and super charming as well."

Tuesday, August 13, 2013
With his first full week of summer practice behind him, Pinewood Prep coach Michael Wright is excited.
Wright took over as the head coach for the Panther football program in the spring. He replaced Jody Kafina, who held the position the past two seasons.
Pinewood opened practice for its 2013 campaign Aug. 1 and Wright says so far things are going well.
"I like what our coaches and our kids have brought to the table," he said. "Everything about these players is encouraging. Their attitude is great. They want to succeed and are hungry about their assignments. They are enthusiastic, energetic and just ready to play football. I'm excited about all those things and about how the players are coming together as a group."
Pinewood had a good mix of upper classmen and younger players come out for the team this year. The Panthers are hoping to improve on the 1–9 record they had last season. However, Wright says he doesn't want his players to dwell on last year.
"I'm not looking back," he said. "I'm looking forward and want to do everything I can to support this group of guys and try to give the fans something to cheer about. But it is all connected. The guys who came before us are part of the Pinewood family, we are just extending the family."
Summerville is rich in football tradition so local fans often have very high expectations for their teams and their coaches. Wright says that is one of the many things he likes about the community, but that as a coach he needs to keep his focus elsewhere.
"I was hired to do my job to the best of my ability so I'm not worrying about those types of things around me," he said. "I am aware of them because I love history, but the important thing is for me to do the best job I can at Pinewood and not look over my shoulder for those types of things even though I have plenty of respect for what high school football is in this area."
He is optimistic Pinewood can be competitive on the gridiron.
"I anticipate we will continue to move forward in SCISA football because I have the support of our head master and others at the school," he said. "The main thing is we need to be consistent about what we do and to continue to generate interest at Pinewood in football. We need our kids to come out for football and we need to make sure they know that as coaches we also support them in the other things they do whether it is another sport or something else."
The offense he is working to implement sounds fan friendly.
"Our offense and defense aren't overly complex but they allow us to do a variety of things," he said. "I like to mix up the run and the pass and I like to use some misdirection. We won't just use one set thing; instead we will use groups of things. One moment we may use a trips formation, the next we may use a pro set or wishbone. I like to set up the offense so that we can do all those things at any time."
A native of Bath, S. C., Wright attended boarding school at the Kent School in Connecticut. He earned his Bachelor of Arts from St. Lawrence University in New York, where he earned four varsity letters in football and two in basketball. Wright is a Hall of Fame member for both the Kent School and St. Lawrence University.
With a career spanning 23 years, he has worked in various administrative capacities, coached numerous sports, and taught at both the middle and high school level.
He says he is thrilled to be back in his home state.
"I'm excited about being back in the South," he said. "I grew up playing Pop Warner Football and our games were at night. Up North most of the games are on Saturday during the day and that's different. My family is excited about that Friday Night atmosphere and the culture surrounding it. I've always been passionate about football but now I feel rejuvenated. I'm also ecstatic about the topnotch education my children will get at Pinewood."

on January 30, 2013 - 10:37 PM
, updated January 31, 2013 at 1:57 AM
The Grand Island School District is looking at a budget gap of $1.5 million as it begins to prepare its fiscal package for the 2013-14 school year.
Joseph Giarrizzo, assistant superintendent for finance, said at Monday's Board of Education meeting that there are still many unknowns at this early stage, including what the mandated increase for the Teacher Retirement System will be.
Giarrizzo said revenue projections for the estimated $53.2 million budget "reflect what was proposed by the governor in his executive budget proposal" last week.
"Most of our preliminary estimates were accurate except for the overall increase in general aid through the GAP Restoration Adjustment," he said. The district projected $197,000, but Gov. Andrew M. Cuomo proposed $141,000.
He said the adjustment imposed by the state reduced the aid the district is entitled to by formula by slightly more than $2.1 million.
Giarrizzo noted the governor's budget proposal included an item that could have an impact on district pension costs, but there aren't enough details yet to suggest its benefit to the district.
In other business, the School Board:
• Set a deadline of Feb. 11 for people interested in the board seat vacated by the Jan. 7 resignation of board President David Goris to send in a letter stating their interest to district clerk Janet Schuster.
• Delayed until Feb. 11 a decision on a new board president. Paul Krull, board vice president, is presiding at the meetings in the meantime.
• Announced that a field of 39 applicants for the superintendency has been narrowed to 10. Working with its consultants, the University of Rochester Warner Center, the board plans to have three to four finalists, all of whom will also be interviewed by 12 representatives of district PTAs, the community, school-related professionals, teaching and administrative staffs. The board plans to appoint a new superintendent by the end of March, Krull said.
• Agreed with a recommendation from interim Superintendent Paul Hashem to revisit its policy on the hall walking program that allows the community to use the high school hallways for exercise in the evenings.
The program had been run through the district's Community Education Department. Participants paid $20, and the fees were used for a monitor who provided some security.
The program's number of participants has dropped from about 40 to six since a change last year, which eliminated the fee, which meant there was no longer a monitor.
The change led to confusion over walking routes, security, and even where to hang coats and change shoes, a participant said.

The Margin: Oklahoma City Thunder 107, San Antonio Spurs 99
The Spurs fell to the Thunder in Game 6 of the Western Conference Finals. There are other media outlets that will give you a more comprehensive look at Game 6 or a more objective look, but that's their job. We're here to tell you how we see it. You know the drill for The Margin. One bullet for every point in the difference of the final score. Make sure you touch the line each time.
- The Spurs scored 34 points in the first quarter and 36 points in the second half. What more should I say? If you watched the game, you understand.
- Tim Duncan's hesitation from the mid-range in the third quarter didn't help the Spurs. Sebastian Pruiti mentioned it on our podcast Wednesday, and even more so on Grantland, but that was a big key for the Spurs. Duncan was aggressive from 15-18 feet in the first half and not so much in the second. San Antonio could've used some decisiveness.
- I love Kawhi Leonard as much as anyone, but he struggled in the second half. He made a lot of mental mistakes, especially defensively, that helped do in the Spurs. Re-watch the game and view how many second half possessions that end in a Thunder basket and Stephen Jackson pointing to Kawhi where he should've been. Leonard will be a special player in the NBA, but he's still a 20-year-old rookie in the Western Conference Finals.
- Danny Green could've cost himself a lot of money during these Western Conference Finals, while potentially saving the Spurs millions. It's amazing how these things turn out.
- We saw a lot of possible narratives fall with the Spurs tonight. Included with the group were the "offense can win championships," "you can go 10 deep in the playoffs," and "Stephen Jackson is a crazy person" story lines. The final one is the only one I enjoyed.
- I was really hoping Spurs Sports & Entertainment could've captured the elusive championship double involving a D-League title and NBA championship, proving definitively that they were the best franchise in professional basketball.
- This was probably my favorite Spurs team of all-time. The personalities involved mixed with the mish-mash of youth and veterans. That said…
- …defense wins championships.

†NAV: Unless you are eligible for a waiver, the public offering price you pay when you buy Class A shares of the Fund is the Net Asset Value (NAV) of the shares plus an initial sales charge. The initial sales charge varies depending upon the size of your purchase. No sales charge is imposed where Class A or Class C shares are issued to you pursuant to the automatic investment of income dividends or capital gains distribution. It is the responsibility of the financial intermediary to ensure that the investor obtains the proper "breakpoint" discount. Class C, Class I and Class Y do not have an initial sales charge; however, Class C does charge a contingent deferred redemption charge. See the prospectus and summary prospectus for more information.
1Expenses are calculated for the 12-month period ending 05/01/16: Class A: Gross 1.44% and Net 1.25%; Class C: Gross 2.68% and Net 1.95%; Class I: Gross 0.94% and Net 0.94%; and Class Y: Gross 1.07% and Net 1.00%. Van Eck Associates Corporation (the "Adviser") has agreed to waive fees and/or pay Fund expenses to the extent necessary to prevent the operating expenses of the Fund (excluding acquired fund fees and expenses, interest expense, trading expenses, dividends and interest payments on securities sold short, taxes and extraordinary expenses) from exceeding 1.25% for Class A, 1.95% for Class C, 0.95% for Class I, and 1.00% for Class Y of the Fund's average daily net assets per year until May 1, 2017. During such time, the
expense limitation is expected to continue until the Board of Trustees acts to discontinue all or a portion of such expense limitation.

3Average Yield to Worst measures the lowest of either yield-to-maturity or yield-to-call date on every possible call date. Effective duration takes into account that expected cash flows will fluctuate as interest rates change. Effective maturity is the length of time until a fixed income investment returns its original investment. Distribution Yield is the amount of cash flow paid out and is calculated by dividing the annual income (interest or dividends) by the current price of the security. Averages are market weighted. These statistics do not take into account fees and expenses associated with investments or the Fund.
The views and opinions expressed are those of VanEck. Fund manager commentaries are general in nature and should not be construed as investment advice. Opinions are subject to change with market conditions. Any discussion of specific securities mentioned in the commentaries is neither an offer to sell nor a solicitation to buy these securities. Fund holdings will vary.
You can lose money by investing in the Fund. Any investment in the Fund should be part of an overall investment program, not a complete program. The Fund is subject to risks associated with its investments in emerging markets securities. Investing in foreign denominated and/or domiciled securities may involve heightened risk due to currency fluctuations, and economic and political risks, which may be enhanced in emerging markets. As the Fund may invest in securities denominated in foreign currencies and some of the income received by the Fund will be in foreign currencies, changes in currency exchange rates may negatively impact the Fund's return. Derivatives may involve certain costs and risks such as liquidity, interest rate, market, credit, management and the risk that a position could not be closed when most advantageous. The Fund may also be subject to credit risk, interest rate risk, sovereign debt risk, tax risk, non-diversification risk and risks associated with non-investment grade securities. Please see the prospectus and summary prospectus for information on these and other risk considerations.
Investing involves risk, including possible loss of principal. An investor should consider investment objectives, risks, charges and expenses of the investment company carefully before investing. Bond and bond funds will decrease in value as interest rates rise. The prospectus and summary prospectus contain this and other information. Please read them carefully before investing.

The pinnacle of the Manics' blockbuster phase, 'Australia' sounded grandiose and full of confidence - no wonder it got hammered on the radio for months - but lyrically it was the opposite: full of paranoia and self-doubt. Nicky Wire wrote it about the aftermath of Richey Edwards' disappearance, wanting to escape, get as far away from home as possible. It's a biting evocation of personal collapse ("My cheeks are too yellow, think I'll take another pill"), powered by a toweringly anthemic chorus. A very Manics combination. (LL).
They're not normally noted for their emotionalism, Crystal Castles, so much as for their shrieking, bleeping, sulking and bottling. Compare, though, the original track on HEALTH's debut album with Ethan Kath's reworked version and it's amazing how it subtly smoothes a jagged, brutalist and tortured thing into a melancholy, gently blooping and squelching, 8-bit mooch of some beauty, bringing the soft fear in Jake Duszik's actually rather lovely voice to the fore. Also, I was rather delighted when I found out he actually was singing "nice breasts" and it wasn't just my dirty ears playing tricks on me. (EM)
"You-oo… are." You are what? "And nothing else compares." Compares to what? Chris Martin's lyrics might be maddeningly vague, but that's what makes Coldplay songs so moving to so many people. Since they mean nothing, they can mean everything. And 'Clocks' is the sound of the band finding their voice in heroic style. After the tentative, polite sound of 'Parachutes', 'Clocks' was sleek and propulsive and confident. It was also (little-known fact!) heavily inspired by Muse's piano-led tracks such as 'New Born'. The stuff of endless samples and soundtracks, you'll be hearing that circular piano riff til the day you die - so you might as well enjoy it. (LL)
147First Of The Gang To Die
And so Mozzer's retro lad fetish reached its apogee with this swinging track from 'You Are The Quarry'. He may be in love with the glamour of the gunpowder, but he's also familiar with the rulebook of the street; the shocking non-emotionality of it all. He assesses, gimlet-eyed, the sharp-suited, Brylcreemed situation, as if these gangsters were some latter day Robin Hoods. Alain Whyte gives Morrissey his best hooks since the 'Vauxhall & I' days. (PE)
146My Manic And I
A stately waltz that belies the dark shade of the lyrics; a troubled dalliance with a self-obsessed nihilist. Marling's as subtly cryptic as ever. There are allusions to mental illness and the breakdown of religious faith, as well as drug addiction, but things are left deliciously open ended. There are subtle sonic touches, with the sparse piano chords, the brush of drums and the sole cello that add to the sense of unease. She crafts the musical equivalent of seeing the horror behind the white-picket fence and walking on. Leaving us the cliffhanger image of "birds are singing to came us down," as the final chords float up into the ether, we're left in doubt about the status of the couple and in awe of Marling's talent. (PE)
145If I Had A Heart
Post-'Silent Shout', many wondered out loud as to where The Knife would go next. To conceptual opera, it turned out, but as a solo artist, Karin Andersson went further into the dark, petrol-coloured altitudes hinted at on 'Silent Shout' with Fever Ray. 'If I Had A Heart' sounded ritualistic and unrelenting, with malevolence seeping out of every pore. It called to mind zombies, death cults and the Tin Man from The Wizard Of Oz, but Andersson's brilliance was that she never revealed the full identity of the song's evil. (PE)
Are we human? Are we dancer? We'll probably never know. At the time, the lyrics confused all of us, yet we still sang along as if we knew what the devil he was on about. Despite the song's slightly maddening grammatical flaw and B. Flo's bizarre feather-encrusted jacket that spawned out of this era, this was a tune. In fact, we loved it so much that Mr. Flowers earned a spot in the Top Ten of our annual Cool List that year. (RS)
143The Hindu Times
The first single from 'Heathen Chemistry' combines all the hard rock bluster of early Oasis with the forays into mysticism that marked Oasis 2.0. Forget the lazy video, or those nagging Stereophonics comparisons that have haunted the track over the years (ie that it sounds like 'Same Size Feet'), this is classic Oasis songwriting at its best. Awarded a spot at the top of the charts (their sixth to do so) for a week before getting rudely dislodged by Sugababes, it's yet another reminder of what the Gallagher two could get round to when they put their minds to it.
"Hopefully people won't want to kill us" - the words of Yannis Philippakis, contrary-bastard-in-chief of Foals, breaking the news that their most beloved early track wouldn't get near their debut album. At the time, it seemed foolish. In hindsight, it was shrewd. While it might sit awkwardly in Foals' cannon (imagine the surly buggers letting one of their tunes be used on Skins now), 'Hummer' is a relentless and joyous reminder that while their output may dally in the realms of serious-face, they're only a glitchy riff away from pop perfection. (MW)
141Clint Eastwood
Sneaky, stoned and cracking with an urban-ish nonchalance, the Gorillaz's opening shot grooved with appropriate nursery rhyme/theme tune simplicity, setting the scene of this band of cartoon characters to doodle into development and arch knowingly into the spotlight. This and Del The Funkee Homosapien's rap suggested a world of brave new possibilities, not least of all for Damon Albarn, who has managed a re-invention much more all-encompassing and successful than even his biggest fans could have ever imagined. (PE)

With a
refresh of the MacBook Air seemingly impending the rumor mill
surrounding Apple Inc. (AAPL)
is once again heating up.
According to Macotakara.jp, a Japanese Apple
fan site, the latest version of the ultraportable will use cutting edge flash memory
technology. The site cites sources at unnamed Asian chipmakers as
claiming that the latest Airs will contain 19nm flash memory chips soldered
directly onto the motherboard for blazing speeds of up to 400 megabits per
Current generation MacBook Airs only have RAM chips soldered on. The SSD
for the laptops are connected using mSATA connectors.
Apple reportedly calls the new technology Toggle DDR2.0. Aside from the
rather curious title (ostensibly it involves NAND flash, not DDR memory), the
technology is expected to be Apple's proprietary implementation of the Open
NAND Flash Interface (ONFI) Working Group's ONFI 3.0 standard.
ONFI 3.0 promises faster speeds and reduces the number of pins on flash memory
chips. These factors add up to nearly "instant" boot times and
fast file copies.
If the rumor about the new flash is true, it likely comes from Micron
Technology, Inc. (MU),
Intel Corp. (INTC), or Spansion Inc. (CODE) -- all members of the ONFI 3.0 coalition. Apple's current NAND supplier, South Korea's Samsung Electronics (SEO:005930), and the world's second biggest
producer, Toshiba Corp. (TYO:6502)
are not currently members.
A split with Samsung would make sense, given Apple's ongoing legal war with the gadget and
component maker.
At times Apple has been on the bleeding edge of introducing new standards.
It was the first major manufacturer to push Intel's proprietary LightPeak
interface, which it renamed Thunderbolt. The refresh of the MacBook Air
is expected to come packing Thunderbolt as well, which requires fancy chip-laden $50 USD cables to work.
OS X Lion and the refreshed MacBook Air are
expected to launch on July 14.
quote: For the blazing last generation video
quote: blazing 3rd and 4th tier CPUs?
quote: It must be for the blazing speed of the whites from the LCD
quote: Xeon E5620 is "3rd and 4th tier"
quote: it was a stupid decision considering the type of people (idiots) that buy them
quote: You can RAID two SSDs externally, but what's the point of RAIDing two SSDs for performance, just to use as a mass storage device? So both of your scenarios make absolutely no sense at all.

Integrin inhibitor is being prepared for proof-of-concept clinical trials.[© Piotr Marcinski - Fotolia.com]
Sanofi (previously sanofi-aventis) is paying India's Glenmark Pharmaceuticals $50 million up front for a license to develop and commercialize the latter's Phase I-stage monoclonal antibody candidate GBR 500, which is currently in development for the treatment of Crohn disease and other inflammatory conditions. Under terms of the deal Glenmark could receive up to an additional $613 million in development, regulatory, and commercialization milestones, plus double-digit sales royalties. Half of the $50 million initial payment will be dependent on Sanofi's assessment of data to be provided by its partner.
Sanofi's license extends to all therapeutic indications for GBR 500. The agreement with Glenmark gives the French firm exclusive marketing rights to the drug in North America, Europe, Japan, and certain South American countries. Sanofi and Glenmark will co-market the drug in Russia, Brazil, Australia, and New Zealand. Glenmark retains exclusive marketing rights in India and other global territories. The firms have an existing licensing deal for the development of Glenmark's TRPV-3 antagonist, GRC 15300, which is in Phase I trials as a potential treatment for osteoarthritis pain, neuropathic pain, and skin disorders.
GBR 500 is a VLA-2 (alpha2-beta1) integrin inhibitor for which Phase I dosing trials have been completed in the U.S. Glenmark claims GBR 500 is the first molecule owned by an Indian company to enter clinical trials. Plans are now progressing to initiate clinical proof-of-concept trials in Crohn disease.
Glenmark has a pipeline of eight small molecule and biologic candidates in clinical development. Focused primarily on inflammatory disorders and pain, the firm's lead antidiarrheal candidate, Crofelemer, has been licensed from Napo Pharmaceuticals, and has completed Phase III trials. Under terms of its license Glenmark has exclusive rights to develop, commercialize, and distribute the CFTR inhibitor in 140 emerging countries for acute adult and peadiatric diarroea as well as HIV-related diarrhea. The most recent Crofelemer trial data, from a multicenter study in adults, were reported by Glenmark, Napo, and Salix Pharmaceuticals in February.
Glenmark operates three drug discovery R&D centers. NCE research is conducted at the R&D center in Navi Mumbai in India. Biologics research is carried out at the firm's site in Switzerland, and clinical R&D is conducted at a facility in Oxford, U.K. In March Glenmark reported the initiation of IND-enabling studies for an anti-CD19 monoclonal antibody, designated GBR 401, which was discovered and is in development in-house as a potential treatment for lymphomas and B cell leukemias.

Thank you for stopping by the Weather Watch 12 Blog! Rain, a mix, and snow covered southeast Wisconsin on Sunday. What should come as no surprise to anyone -- the snow missed Milwaukee. In today's blog we discuss the ongoing snow drought, and look at the locations that now look like a winter wonderland.
The accumulating snow covered areas like West Bend, Sheboygan, Fond du Lac, and Watertown. In Milwaukee only a trace of snow, nothing measurable. That made Sunday day 280 of our snowless streak and a new record for longest consecutive days without measurable snow. The last time we saw enough snow to coat the ground was March 4.
While far southeast Wisconsin missed the snow, a short car drive from Milwaukee produced enough snow to go sledding or make a snowman. The updated U.S. snow depth map is shown below. The weekend storm system blanketed areas from the northern Rockies to the central Great Lakes with snow.
With a deep snow pack in place across parts of the northern Plains and upper Midwest, temperatures will be colder moving forward. Think of snow on the ground as ice cubes in a drink. The ice cubes cool the water, while the snow cools the atmosphere near the surface.
The snow will allow colder airmasses to drift farther southeast, with less real estate for arctic air to moderate. This is assuming the snow sticks around for a while.
The snow pack was already helping to produce some frigid temperatures in Minnesota Monday morning. With clear skies parts of north-central Minnesota dropped to -10 to -15 degrees! At the same time clouds were over Milwaukee with a reading of 32.
The surface map below is valid at 8:23am this morning. The red numbers are air temperature(F) and the green dew point(F).
Colder temperatures will spill into southeastern Wisconsin for Monday night into Tuesday. Morning lows over our northern counties where 1"-3" of snow is on the ground may fall into the low to mid teens. Closer to the lake lows will stay in the 20s. If skies clear and winds are light, patchy fog may develop over some fog prone inland locations. If you do encounter fog slow down, roads may be frosty or slippery.

Have a great day!

LOCKPORT – A Newfane woman did not contest her ejection from the judicial diversion program of court-supervised drug treatment Wednesday by Niagara County Judge Sara Sheldon Farkas.
Brianna Jones, 30, of Main Street, is to be resentenced May 8 on her original 2011 guilty plea to third-degree criminal sale of a controlled substance. She sold Suboxone and oxycodone in Newfane Sept. 22, 2010.
Jones had failed some drug tests during her time in diversion, but she was ousted officially for having an unauthorized male friend in her room at a supportive living facility. She faces up to nine years in prison and in the meantime is in the County Jail in lieu of $5,000 bail.
