HOLLIDAYSBURG - Hollidaysburg Area High School boys basketball coach Mick Pentoney had just watched his Golden Tigers be thumped by Williamsport, and he couldn't help but think about two seasons ago.
Pentoney's Golden Tigers were a senior-laden team then and rolled over most of their opponents, including a young Williamsport squad.
Now, the roles are reversed. Hollidaysburg is young and inexperienced. Williamsport has a veteran outfit and is considered among the state's elite Class AAAA teams.
The Millionaires manhandled the Tigers, 76-47, Tuesday night at the HAHS gym, scoring 76 points without attempting a 3-point shot.
"That's old-school basketball," Pentoney said. "Shoot inside 10 [feet].
"We've seen them play before, and they don't [shoot 3s]. They have a great inside game, they have guys who can put it on the deck, they go chase the rebounds and, as seniors, they really know position and are there before you even have a chance.
"They're around the corner before you know it, and that's the difference between seniors and underclassmen."
Surprisingly, Hollidaysburg led 17-15 after one quarter, thanks to a 7-0 run in the final minute.
"We stayed in it in the first, but the second quarter got away from us," Pentoney said. "Their coaches do a great job of having them play hard, and I think they're going to have a really good run in the playoffs."
It was all Williamsport after the first quarter. The Billtowners outscored the Tigers, 19-2, in the second quarter, forcing the hosts into 11 turnovers while holding them to one field goal by Brian Urban, who was the Tigers' lone bright spot with 19 points.
"I thought Brian Urban played really well," Pentoney said.
"The past few games we've been getting off to slow starts," Williamsport coach Allen Taylor said. "It's been taking us awhile to get in gear, and, I don't know if we're just trying to get our legs or what, but we definitely have to have better starts.
"I was pleased with our effort and intensity in the second quarter," Taylor said. "I think it was a 19-2 run, and that was pretty much the tell-all."
Now 12-2, Williamsport got a career-best 29 points from Jahad Thomas and received double-digit performances from 6-foot-6 center Chris Kinley (15) and Achilles Watson (13).
"Number 5 [Thomas] is a major matchup problem," Pentoney said, "because he's a big, heavy guard."
"We usually have about four people in double figures," Taylor said. "It's not always the same four but, for the most part, we share the basketball and are pretty unselfish."
Even though the Tigers are now 3-9, Pentoney saw a silver lining.
"I look at it as a loss-win when we play a team of that caliber, so we can get better," Pentoney said. "Kids don't understand how good basketball is until you see that kind of play."
Game notes: Hollidaysburg's 6-6 center, Zach Ottaway, the team's leading scorer and rebounder, suffered an elbow injury midway through the first quarter and did not return. ... Williamsport outrebounded the Tigers, 26-14. ... Hollidaysburg committed 26 turnovers, the Millionaires 15. ... There was no jayvee game.

White Coat Ceremony for new MD studentsJuly 19, 6:00pm - 8:00pm
Site to be determined
A celebration for entering students who have earned admission to the John A. Burns School of Medicine. Families watch as the jubilant students are cloaked with the short white lab coats that identify them as medical students.
Reaching all the way back to the 5th century before Christ, medical students traditionally recite the Oath of Hippocrates at the beginning of their studies and again when they are awarded the time-honored title of Medical Doctor.
The Incoming Class of 2017 at the John A. Burns School of Medicine (JABSOM) will experience that tradition during their White Coat Ceremony on July 20, location to be determined. The class is led in the oath by Dr. William Haning, President of the JABSOM Alumni Association.

The west side is NOT, as incorrectly defined, the west coast. It refers to the westside, duh, of a major city. It is used by street gangs if they originate from the western neighborhoods of a certain area. If you live on the west coast, that does not make you west side. That depends on where in that particular city you reside.

RENO - The Nevada Wolf Pack men's basketball team has hit rock bottom.
"I've been here 14 years," Wolf Pack coach David Carter said. "I've never gone through this."
The Wolf Pack, desperate for a victory on its own court, lost to the Fresno State Bulldogs, the last-place team in the Mountain West, 69-64, in overtime Tuesday night at Lawlor Events Center.
After the game Carter was visibly angry with his team.
"I just told them, 'Next year there has to be changes,'" said Carter, whose team has now lost nine of its last 12 games to fall to 12-13 overall and 3-8 in the Mountain West. "'Drastic changes. You guys had your chance. There's got to be changes.'"
Fresno's Kevin Foster drained a 3-pointer with six seconds to go in the second half to send the game into overtime.
"I told them to switch off screens and get a hand in their face and then he (Foster) gets a clean look," Carter said.
Carter said he didn't tell his team to automatically foul on the Bulldogs' last possession in regulation, despite the 3-point lead with under 10 seconds to play.
"I wanted to make them to get a hand up on their shot," Carter said. "I was afraid of an offensive rebound (on a missed free throw). I was scared how ugly it could get."
It did indeed get ugly.
Carter said his team was devastated emotionally going into the overtime. The Pack, after all, saw a 53-45 lead with five minutes to go evaporate on their own floor against a team that had won just two games since New Year's Eve.
"We got in the huddle and they all had their heads down," Carter said. "I had to get their heads back in the game."
Fresno, which lost to the Wolf Pack 68-61 in Fresno on Jan. 19, won the overtime 11-6 to improve to 9-16, 3-9. Fresno's Tyler Johnson had a dunk for a 60-58 lead with 3:22 left and also hit a short jumper for a 63-59 lead with 53 seconds remaining. Allen Huddleston, Foster and Jerry Brown then each made two free throws in the final 30 seconds to secure the victory.
Missed free throws by the Wolf Pack were the reason the game even went to overtime. The Pack missed eight free throws in the second half and saw a 53-45 lead with five minutes to play turn into a 53-53 tie two minutes later.
The biggest missed free throw was by Malik Story with 14 seconds to go with the Pack up 58-55, giving Fresno a chance to tie the game with a 3-pointer.
"Missed free throws," Carter said, "That's concentration. "You can't make free throws. Maybe you're not a Division I player."
Carter wasn't making any excuses for his team after the frustrating loss. The Pack led by as much as 10 (45-35) with 14 minutes to go and still had the game in control, up by eight (53-45) with five minutes left.
"You're at home, you had the game in your grasp," Carter said. "You have to make free throws. That's just toughness. We have to address that. It has to come from somewhere."
The Pack's two leading scorers, Deonte Burton and Story (both averaging 16.2 points a game), combined for just 17 points. Story was 1-of-11 from the floor (1-of-7 on threes) and finished with six points in 33 minutes. Burton was 5-of-14 and finished with 17. The three other starters -- Cole Huff, Jerry Evans and Kevin Panzer -- combined for 21 points in 88 minutes.
"We still had control of the game," Carter said. "But we kept missing free throws."
The Pack started to misfire from the free throw line in the second half, leading 45-37. Ali Fall missed twice with 12:06 to play, Marqueze Coleman missed once with 6:54 to go, Burton missed once with 6:06 to go and Coleman missed twice with 5:23 to play.
"This is getting old," said Carter, who wouldn't allow his players to talk to the media after the game. "I can't shoot free throws for them. The thing that really bothers me about all this is that they are juniors now. It's not like they just got here."
The Wolf Pack is now 10-5 at home this season and 2-4 at home in conference play. A year ago they were 16-2 at home.
"It is what it is," Carter said. "We are what we are. Toughness comes from within. Toughness is part of making free throws."
Fresno State had lost three in a row, nine of its last 11 and 13 of its last 16 before beating the Wolf Pack. And the Wolf Pack's schedule only gets tougher from here on out.
The Pack travels to San Diego State to play the Aztecs on Saturday (3 p.m.) and will be at Boise State on Feb. 23 before returning home for its final two games at Lawlor Events Center against UNLV (March 2) and New Mexico (March 6). The regular season ends with a game at Colorado State on March 9.
"I don't have any answers," Carter said. "As a coach, there's only so much you can control. It's up to them (the players) to decide what they want to be."

Her family told Extra that Funicello passed away from complications of her illness, and they were by her side when she was taken off life support. Funicello had been in an MS coma for years.
"She's on her toes dancing in heaven. No more MS," Gina Gilardi, Funicello's daughter, tells Extra. "My brothers and I were there, holding her sweet hands when she left us."
With her brunette curls and expressive brown eyes, "Annette," as she was simply known, grew up on the nation's TV screens in her unquestioned role as the princess of Walt Disney's daily afternoon syndicated TV show. She embodied the image of wholesome Eisenhower Era youth both on screen and off, even when she graduated to the role of Frankie Avalon's beach-blanket buddy in the early '60s.
"You knew she was very attractive, very pretty and voluptuous, but Annette never flaunted it," Avalon, now 75, told PEOPLE in 1998. "She underplayed everything. She never tried to be sexy. People said to themselves, 'I could date that girl if I ever met her.' She wasn't untouchable."
Born Oct. 22, 1942, in Utica, N.Y., to auto-repair-shop owner Joseph Funicello and his homemaker wife Virginia, Annette was 4 when she moved to Southern California with her family. One spring day in 1955, Walt Disney, casting his new kids' TV program, happened to stop by the Burbank Starlite Bowl, where a dance school was giving its year-end recital of Swan Lake. And a star was born.
"Mr. Disney," as she always called him, guided Funicello's career for the next 10 years. During and even after leaving the Club, she starred for him on TV's Zorro and in such movies as 1959's The Shaggy Dog and 1961's Babes in Toyland.
In 1963, Funicello's famous figure caught the shrewd eye of B-movie producer Samuel Z. Arkoff, who, with the cautious blessing of Walt – who ruled out her wearing a bikini – cast Annette opposite Avalon in Beach Party a low-budget hit that spawned a series of sandy sequels. In 1965 she married her agent, Jack Gilardi, with whom she had three children: Gina, Jack Jr. and Jason.
An Active MotherAfter appearing in the 1968 rock 'n' roll movie Head with the band The Monkees, Funicello retired from the big screen to raise her family. "She was always there for carpools, Hot Dog Day and the PTA," daughter Gina told InStyle in 1994. "She was a normal mom." Gina and her brothers appeared with Funicello in commercials for Skippy peanut butter in the 1970s.
But Funicello neither lived happily ever after nor faded into the background. Her marriage ended in divorce in 1982; three years later she married racehorse breeder Glen Holt. She also re-ignited her career, reuniting with Avalon for 1987's retro romp Back to the Beach, her first film in nearly two decades. The success of the movie led to a 35-city concert tour with her costar.
The Final YearsFor several years after the diagnosis, only her immediate family knew of her illness, but when her equilibrium finally gave out in 1991, causing rumors of alcoholism, Funicello had no choice but to go public. Two years later Disney's Hyperion published her autobiography, A Dream Is a Wish Your Heart Makes, in which she detailed her battle against MS and her relentless search for a cure. A TV movie based on the story aired in October 1995, on Funicello's 53rd birthday, with the former Mouseketeer appearing in a few scenes playing her contemporary self.
No longer able to read or write and speaking only with great difficulty, she spent her final years mostly confined to a wheelchair, specially designed by her husband with a seat from a harness-racing sulky. Her home for the past 40 years was a smoky-blue ranch house in Encino, Calif., with frilly, white wrought iron fencing that she called "my good-luck house."
In her autobiography, Funicello wrote, "It's funny, but sometimes when I feel discouraged or have a problem I can't work out, I find myself thinking, 'If only Mr. Disney were here, he would know what to do.' "
Survivors include her husband, daughter Gina, and sons Jack Jr., and Jason. Donations in her honor can be sent to the Annette Funicello Research Fund for Neurological Disorders.

5 Artifacts That Will Shatter Your Image of the Middle Ages
#2. The First Little Ponies
On the other end of the illustration spectrum is the Capodilista Codex, a series of illustrations commissioned by 15th century Italian ambassador Giovan Capodilista. At first glance, everything about the pictures is what you'd expect from Renaissance art. There are knights and ladies on horses and -- hold up. There's something weird about those horses.
I can't quite put my finger on it.
Oh, now I see it. The horses want to do me.
"There's nothing little about this pony ... ladies."
Regardless of who is riding the horse or whatever important words are printed in the air behind it, each and every pony looks like it wants to have sex, like, right now. Some of them are looking at the viewer, and some of them are looking back at the rider. No matter where they're looking, they've got heavy-lidded, lusty gazes. This one has a tractor beam on his male rider's lopsided boob plates.
"You should see his codpiece."
And it's smiling -- IT'S SMILING. Horse after horse features a coquettish little nodded head and what I can only assume is mascara. The cumulative effect is that there's a whole army of horses with bedroom eyes.
"My mind's telling me neighhhh ..."
"But my body, my body's telling me yeeeeesss!"
There are only two possible explanations for these sex-hungry colts. One is that the anonymous artist was the first brony. Two, and most likely, the horses really did look like that because they were all possessed by someone from the future -- someone known for her sexy, heavily medicated gaze.
Seventy-five percent of you are going to have really weird dreams tonight.
#1. Flying Penis Badges
Think of the most religious person you know. Someone so devout that he'd make an international trip as a show of his faith. Someone who wears his spirituality on his sleeve. Now think of that person wearing this instead:
What is the sound of one dick flapping?
I know what you're thinking: That's a flying erect phallus with legs. And you're right. What you may have not guessed was that this wasn't just any flying erect phallus with legs; this one was intended for devout Christians going on a pilgrimage. They wore it as a token of their God-driven journey. ON PURPOSE. And we're not looking at the one and only winged penis ever made in the history of mankind -- there were lots of them. So many, in fact, that if you look hard enough, you can probably buy an authentic dingy badge of your own. Here's one from the British Museum:
This penis doesn't just have butt-wings and legs, it's also got a woman pushing a wheelbarrow on top of it. And, if you look closely, you see that it's a wheelbarrow filled with penis. The strange part, besides the part about attaching wings to a penis, is that medieval people weren't even the first to do it. The Romans were way ahead of them in the soaring ding-a-ling department. But it took Dutch Christian pilgrims to say, "Hey! That perfectly represents my faith and the things I will do for it! Pin it on me!"
This one is wearing pants and a crown.
And not just any pants. Hammer pants.
It goes by "King Flying Penis, Who Wears Chicken Legs for Pants and May or May Not Be Pooping a Snake Right Now as He's Walking. The First." So the next time you get a little worked up over whatever offensive nonsense you see the kids wearing nowadays, just remember that 15th century Christians once wore bird boners with pride. And then remind the Christians you know, because they LOVE trivia.
Kristi loves trivia and Christians, but not bird boners. You can find her on Twitter and Tumblr.

Six Western New York nominations to the State and National Registers of Historic Places were among 25 announced Tuesday by the State Board for Historic Preservation.
They are:
• F. N. Burt Co. Factory in Buffalo: Construction of the factory complex, which began in 1901, became the leading provider of cigarette boxes and later, cosmetic containers. A major redevelopment was recently announced by the Savarino Cos.
• Schoellkopf Power Station No. 3 Site, Niagara Falls: The No. 3 site was associated with the spectacular 1956 collapse of the station into the Niagara River gorge, which ultimately led to the Niagara Power Project.
• John J. Aiken House, Ellicottville: The vernacular Greek Revival house was constructed circa 1837 for the Rev. John J. Aiken, a prominent local religious and business leader.
• Augustus S. Tryon House, Le Roy: The 1867 Italianate house was built for Augustus S. Tryon, a successsful merchant and farmer, and was later owned by prominent mill owner Charles Prentice.
• Bacon-Harding Farm, Orleans County: The farmstead includes a distinctive cobblestone Greek Revival house built in 1844.
• Attica Market & Main Historic District: The commercial core of 23 contributing buildings from 1827 to 1915 represents nearly a century of development in the village.

Lithuanian policeman Dalius Valukonis says he spent three years and hundreds of hours of his free time to create the tree using bottles he got from restaurants, bars, family and friends.
The non-drinker said Saturday a metal structure with special hooks and construction foam holds the bottles in place. It's an eye-catcher that makes motorists in the town of Lazdijai near the Polish border snap pictures.
Valukonis says he intends to build something even more impressive next year.

A NAMI Voice: Unemployment and Poverty as the Results of Disability Policy
Until 2 months ago, I had been unemployed and unable to work due to serious mental health problems and some physical problems since 1981. For 21 of those 22 years, I have depended on SSDI and SSI for support, which combined, now provides me $572 a month, or under $7,000 a year. I have just finished a part-time, 3 month job as a subcontractor with my County. For this work, last month I received my first paycheck in 15 years.
I know poverty first hand. Living on less than $600 a month in an affluent County on the East Coast has been extremely challenging. I have had to rely on virtually every program and benefit available, including food stamps, Medicaid, Medicare, a section 8 voucher that pays for the great majority of my rent for my one bedroom apartment in which I have lived independently for the past 15 years, other rental assistance, legal aid, donated dental programs, low-income energy assistance programs—you name it.
Everyday expenses, such as needing dental work, new glasses, replacing worn clothing, replacing broken appliances, etc., are prohibitive, let alone the ever-increasing cost of food, transportation, and housing. My parents have helped me out some, such as buying me a television and computer, and letting me use their car - things I could not possibly afford on my own. With the money from my first paycheck, it was a nice feeling to be able to go and buy some needed dishes for the first time in many years without worrying excessively over their $30 cost.
I have faced numerous barriers to employment. While I am currently in a supported employment program, they played no role in obtaining the three month contract job. In addition, I know all too well the catch-22 dilemmas of risking losing health coverage in order to work. In fact, I fear I will lose my Medicaid coverage from the contract job, even beyond its 3 month time frame, unless, that is, I am willing to not accumulate any savings beyond the $2,000 SSI asset limit.
I also face losing SSDI and Medicare if I continue working beyond this, and I do have possible opportunities for continued work, assuming I can get the hard-to-find supports I need to be able to do so.
What should I give up? My recovery? Productive work? Access to mental health treatment? Additional income support that permits me to eat every day and stay in my apartment?
Excerpt of comments presented by Randy, NAMI member and consumer advocate, at the NAMI national convention, Minneapolis, MN, June 29, 2003.

When you deploy to the desert, flooding isn't the first thing that comes to mind. Still, a group of USO volunteers and staff bailed out USO Kandahar from a messy situation over the weekend when flash flooding filled some of the center's rooms with ankle-high water.
"We had a great group of volunteers that were quick to help us get all the furniture and boxes upstairs and to the theatre, which was higher ground and less likely to be affected by the water," USO Kandahar's Deborah Ayers wrote in an email. "Within an hour and a half, the water was about 3 inches deep in two of the back rooms, and had pushed forward about halfway through the tent. At that point, the tent had been cleared out except for the volunteers, who went out front to assess the damage.
"[USO Kandahar] has experienced floods almost every year, so this was somewhat expected, and thanks to the amazing cooperation and coordination of the volunteers and staff we got away with minimal damage and we're up and running again!"

The Portes du Soleil is one of Europe's largest winter sports areas. There is no end of skiing fun on offer here because the Arena is an international network of pistes and cableways in the Lower Valais and French Savoy. Besides 650 kilometres of slopes, there are also idyllic nooks and crannies to be found here. For this we recommend the Vallon de They where a magical wintry silence reigns and all you hear is the Vièze Morgins stream murmuring gently between the snowy rocks. The cleared winter trail runs beside the water and into the valley. The trail repeatedly crosses small bridges and along the way you will pass a spring known as the Eau Rouge because of the iron colouring the water that flows out of the mountain. Start your hike at the Morgins/poste bus stop and end up in En Tey, where you will find the Cantine de They mountain restaurant. From there, return by the same route back to Morgins.

WASHINGTON – Longer waits at the U.S.-Canadian border, larger class sizes in Buffalo city schools and big reductions in programs for the poor are looming, thanks to a series of automatic federal spending cuts set to take effect Friday, Obama administration and local officials warned Monday as Republicans resisted efforts to replace the cuts with other savings and tax increases.
With the White House and congressional leaders not even really negotiating about an alternative to the $85 billion in cuts set to take effect for the next seven months, lawmakers said they expected the cuts to take effect as scheduled – and the White House made it clear that the public would notice.
Homeland Security Secretary Janet Napolitano outlined a dire scenario of border backups, while White House aides announced that New York State will lose $79 million in federal school aid this year alone, with Buffalo city schools losing out on $2.54 million.
President Obama issued a blunt warning to governors gathered at the White House, saying: "Congress is poised to allow a series of arbitrary, automatic budget cuts to kick in that will slow our economy, eliminate good jobs and leave a lot of folks who are already pretty thinly stretched scrambling to figure out what to do."
Republicans countered that the White House was deliberately making the cuts as painful as possible for political reasons.
"There can be savings made at every turn; just take the budget line by line by line like I did in Erie County," said Rep. Chris Collins, R-Clarence, a former Erie County executive. "You can absorb this $85 billion, and the public would never feel it at all. Again, this president is going to punish the public as a way of placing blame so he can try to get more taxes."
Obama is demanding more taxes on the wealthy as part of a package that would replace the spending cuts known as "sequestration," which would total $1.2 trillion over a decade.
Passed by Congress at Obama's suggestion as part of the 2011 deal to raise the government debt ceiling, the sequestration cuts were designed to be too painful to ever take effect. But now, with the president and Congress again at a stalemate on replacing the cuts, administration officials spent the day Monday outlining how bad they would be.
Given that the first year of the 10-year cuts are being compressed into seven months, administration officials said most domestic programs except Social Security and Medicare would be cut 9 percent in one fell swoop starting Friday, while defense would be slashed 13 percent.
Napolitano said that would mean dramatic cutbacks in border security, forecasting long lines at the nation's border crossings and airports as her department is forced to cut back the hours of border patrol and customs agents.
"One of the chief complaints I receive whenever I travel to either border is it takes too long to move the trucks across, it takes too long for people in passenger vehicles to get through, and all I can tell you is that, with sequestration, that situation is not going to improve," she said. "It's going to go backwards."
Napolitano's White House briefing appeared to be part of a wide-ranging administration effort to paint an ugly picture of sequestration's impact. As part of it, the White House released summaries of how each state would be affected.
The New York summary showed education taking an especially big cut, as the federal government reduces the aid it gives states for educating the disadvantaged and the disabled.
Big-city school districts will suffer the most, with Buffalo city schools likely to lose $2.54 million, according to an analysis by the New York State School Boards Association.
The Buffalo Board of Education recently passed a resolution calling on Congress to redraw the cuts, saying they "could result in large class sizes, fewer course offerings, compromised school safety, loss of extracurricular activities and teacher and staff layoffs."
But the cuts wouldn't end there. According to the White House analysis, the cuts would mean that in New York:
• Head Start and Early Head Start would be ended for about 4,300 children.
• About 4,520 low-income college students would lose their federal aid, and 4,150 fewer students would be able to get work-study jobs.
• The defense payroll would be trimmed by more than $60 million through furloughs while military bases in the state would lose $108 million in funding.
And that's just the start of it. Rep. Brian Higgins, D-Buffalo, warned that $1.6 billion in cuts at the National Institutes of Health would have an impact on research at Roswell Park Cancer Institute, while practically every local government agency that receives federal funds would also take a hit.
"The resulting job losses in education, the life sciences, law enforcement, border security and so on threaten to throw our economy backwards," Higgins said.
In the face of all of that, Democrats are backing Obama's preferred solution.
"We propose that companies that send jobs overseas no longer get a tax break to do it," said Sen. Charles E. Schumer, D-N.Y. "We propose that oil companies, which get huge subsidies and are making multi-billions of dollars, no longer get those subsidies. And we propose that those whose income is over a million dollars a year pay the same rate as their secretaries. If we do those three things, we don't have to do sequester."
Collins dismissed Schumer's proposal as "typical liberal spend-spend-spend, tax-tax-tax" and added: "Frankly, Sen. Schumer, when it comes to economic policy and small business, doesn't know what it's like to run a small business and create the jobs we needed."
Collins was by no means the only Republican who expressed skepticism about the administration's worrisome warnings about the looming spending cuts.
Sen. Tom Coburn, R-Okla., sent a letter to the Office of Management and Budget noting that while proposing cutbacks on border security, the federal government is also looking to hire an Air Force historian and 10 drivers at the State Department among other apparently non-essential personnel.
"Are any of these positions more important than an air traffic controller, a border patrol officer, a food inspector, a TSA screener, or a civilian supporting our men and women in combat in Afghanistan?" Coburn asked.
Meanwhile, Rep. Tom Reed, R-Corning, accused the administration of engaging in political theater "to try to scare as many people as possible to say we can't do this."
Still, Reed acknowledged that a better budget-balancing plan would address long-term fiscal challenges such as Medicare and Social Security, rather than focusing all the cuts on other programs.
Such a better balanced plan may still be in the offing, he said.
"I see us going past the March 1 date, I see pressure developing on the various lines that are going to be impacted, and that will force folks down in Washington on both sides of the aisle to come together to try to come up with an alternative package," Reed said.

Quadruple Helices Appear To Have Role...

Although Pittcon is no longer a must-attend meeting for some (that would include Agilent and PerkinElmer), there are still plenty of analytical instrument companies that wouldn't miss it. There are also roughly 9,000 analytical scientists here in Philadelphia who feel similarly.
In slightly smaller quarters this year, the exhibit hall is packed with companies from around the globe plying their wares to scientists who seem to be interested in more than just browsing. And there is plenty of new stuff for them to covet.
Bruker introduced a number of new products, including the EVOQ™ Qube and Elite: The new LC-triple quadrupole (LC-TQ) mass spectrometers are similar to Bruker's SCION GC-TQ platform introduced in 2011, Bruker reports, in that they feature significant advances in robustness, ease of methods developments, and productivity. The EVOQ platform was designed for a singular purpose, according to Bruker, and that is "to very reliably quantify thousands of real samples with fast sample-to-report time."
Bruker also launched the COMPACT Qq-TOF, a bench-top accurate mass Qq-TOF LC-MS/MS system providing high sensitivity and enhanced dynamic range. This product is geared toward the nonexpert user.
Yesterday afternoon, ACD/Labs reported the culmination of a project announced at Pittcon two years ago: this year it reported the commercial availability of ACD/Spectrus DB. This database is at the core of the Spectrus integrated analytical and chemical knowledge management platform. In 2011, the company announced plans for the new Spectrus DB platform at Pittcon, and last year it launched Spectrus Workbooks at the meeting.
Also announcing a new product late yesterday was Beckman Coulter Life Sciences, which introduced the DelsaMax family of products. According to the company, DelsaMax particle analyzers measure the size and zeta potential of nanoparticles with substantial speed and high precision. Instruments in the family utilize two independent detection systems that operate in parallel—a configuration that significantly streamlines workflows in biological, chemical, material, and polymer science applications.

COLUMBUS - Almost 20 students from area schools made the trip to Columbus Wednesday to meet several state legislators.
David Koehl, chairman of the Seneca County Republican Central Committee, organized the annual student trip, in its sixth year.
The trip is great for students to get a chance to meet office holders and talk directly to them, Koehl said.

From left, Grant Ekleberry, Audrey Flood, Rep. Rex Damschroder, Patti Concepcion, Robert Parker, Joe Godinez, Rep. Jeff McClain, Grant Price and Tyler Krupp pose for a photo in Columbus Wednesday.
Students from Mohawk, Seneca East and Tiffin Columbian high schools, North Central Academy and Terra State Community College met with Karen Gillmor of the Ohio Industrial Commission; Brandon Kern, director of state policy for the Ohio Farm Bureau Federation; Reps. Rex Damschroder, R-Fremont, and Jeff McClain, R-Upper Sandusky; Auditor Dave Yost; Justice Judith French; Ohio Senate President Keith Faber; Sen. Dave Burke, R-Marysville; and Matt Borges, chairman-elect of the Ohio Republican Party.
This was the first trip to visit legislators for Seth Martin, a sophomore from Seneca East. He in interested in a political or international diplomacy career once he graduates, he said.
"The trip for me is to learn about the workings of our state government," Martin said Wednesday.
"It's exciting to see and learn more about the government and meet the people and become familiar with what they do," Morgan Coffman, freshman from Seneca East, said.
Senior Tyler Krupp made the trip to Columbus last year.
"While in Columbus last year, we toured the State House, sat in on a Senate Agriculture Committee hearing where we got to see an exotic animals bill get passed through committee," Krupp said. " We also sat in on a Senate session where we saw the same bill get passed through the whole Senate."
Krupp said the trip last year changed his plans, he said, "I had planned on getting a minor in business while majoring in chemical engineering at Ohio State next year, but now I am planning on minoring in political science because I have become so interested in the field."
Ryan Somers, a freshmen at Terra, also went on the trip last year. He is studying business and hopes his degree will get him a foot in the door of a political career.
"Overall, the trip (in 2011) was overwhelming seeing how our government works and being able to see our governor," Somers said. "Seeing Gov. Kasich sign the bill was incredible, and being able to ask questions about the bills going through the House is important as students to see what we can do to improve and get involved in the state government as officials."
Students were encouraged to ask questions on topics such as the budget, taxes and unemployment, how to win an election, background on the office-holders' careers and campaigning.
"My favorite part of the trip (last year) was touring the Ohio Supreme Court. Justice Robert Cupp provided probably the best tour I have ever been on," Krupp said. "He took us all throughout the Supreme Court, even allowing us to sit in the justices chairs and taking us through 'secret passageways' to their deliberation rooms. We got to see nearly every aspect of the Supreme Court during that tour, places most people can't get to."
"(The trip) is good for the students, but also good for the office holders," Koehl said. "Not many times do office holders get to interact with student groups and individuals that may be running for offices in the next few years."

Try Marinara you have time to make
Homemade marinara sauce can take all day. Jarred marinara takes five minutes. There are obvious pitfalls to either, such as taste, time and guilt.
Versatile Marinara Sauce walks that minefield with grace.
It has a distinctive flavor you can't get from a jar, and it only takes an hour.
Five things I learned:
1. Now, calm down. I know I just said it takes an hour. No, that's not going to work on a busy weeknight any better than your Italian grandmother's Sunday gravy.
However, I figured you could do it on a slower day -- when one hour on the stove would beat eight -- and then use it whenever you want.
Pour it over sausage, pasta, or frozen meatballs anytime. That should cure at least one case of busy-weeknight blues.
2. I'm not ashamed to say I like Prego, but it gets old. Plus, I don't always have it. So sometimes I throw together a 20-minute pasta sauce using olive oil, onions, garlic, celery, tomatoes, a tablespoon or so of paste and a 10-ounce can of tomato soup.
Then I dump some dried oregano and basil, some salt, and a pinch of red pepper flakes. I'm done, and if my husband's not watching I scoop a teaspoon of sugar in, too.
Of course, that's all dependent on all of that stuff being in the cupboard.
3. This recipe calls for a half-cup of olive oil, and that seems like a lot. You could certainly try to make it with less, but you might find it a bit too acidic.
At any rate, the nutritional numbers aren't too punishing, so I'm leaving it in.
4. The recipe from the Daily Meal included a "bold and spicy" version that called for kalamata olives, capers, anchovies and lemon juice to be added to the basic marinara.
To me, the bold version went way over the top. Kalamata olives and capers and anchovies and lemon juice were all fighting for my attention.
I found myself picking around the olives and handed my plate to my husband -- who was raving about all of the olives and capers and anchovies and lemon juice.
I think if I hadn't been sitting there, he might have licked it. To each his own.
5. One thing I will say is that I took this opportunity to try an anchovy out of the can and was able to swallow it. I could even almost see why some people like them.
But I still wouldn't let them ruin a perfectly innocent pizza.

Bad Company 2 Review
Do you like first-person shooters? If the answer is yes, buy Battlefield: Bad Company 2. EA might be looking at Medal of Honor to get a Modern Warfare sized hit, but BC2 deserves good things too.
It's no secret that EA wants its own Modern Warfare, but in recent years the mega publisher has struggled to put together a game that can shift units in numbers even approaching what Activision's series has. In DICE, the Swedish studio behind the Battlefield series, EA has a development team more than up to the job, and its latest effort, Battlefield: Bad Company 2, is without a doubt the best modern combat FPS the publisher has ever produced. If you've been wondering what game could possibly take players away from online MW2, look no further.
2008's Bad Company did a lot right. It featured some great open environments, impressive production values and a tight, if somewhat limited multiplayer mode. It didn't quite feel like the complete package, though, with the campaign at times feeling like an afterthought and the multiplayer severely lacking game modes. This sequel, which once again follows the four-man Bad Company unit, builds on its predecessor all across the board, delivering an excellent single-player campaign, incredible audio and visual work, and a multiplayer component that is top of its class.
Bad Company 2 casts you as soldier Preston Marlowe, and you're joined by the other three members of Bad Company that fought alongside you in the first game. The story, which follows you as you try to recover a deadly WMD before the Russians get their hands on it, takes you from tropical jungles and baking hot deserts, to frozen villages and wide open countryside. The guys in the team are likable enough, and there's an attempt to build up some kind of camaraderie, but it's hard to see them as real people. The frequent one-liners are occasionally amusing, but often jar against the non-stop violence.
So what's changed here to make the campaign a more essential experience than that in the original game? Levels remain largely quite open, but there's definitely been some attention paid to tunnelling you through to make sure you don't wander about aimlessly. Gone is the re-spawn and health pack system of the first game (which made the campaign feel too similar to a multiplayer match), replaced with more standard checkpoints and recharging health. In comes mid-mission weapons load-out changing (via supply crates), less twitchy aiming (which made targeting enemies quite awkward in the original game) and an onslaught of memorable battles.
While the original game featured plenty of action, it didn't come close to the frequent chaos that this sequel bombards you with. Time and time again you'll be facing off against enemy troops, heavily outnumbered, with buildings blowing up all around you, attack gunships in the air and RPGs narrowly missing your face. In terms of set pieces, Bad Company 2 doesn't reach Modern Warfare levels, but it feels less scripted as a result - not that there aren't some stunning moments scattered throughout the campaign.

An Ontario man convicted of bank fraud was sentenced to 26 months in prison Thursday by U.S. District Judge Richard J. Arcara.
Mohammed Yassin, 42, of Hamilton, also was ordered to pay $36,100 in restitution to Key Bank and Bank of America.
Assistant U.S. Attorney Russell T. Ippolito Jr. said Yassin opened business accounts at local branches of the two banks, made fraudulent deposits to those accounts and then withdrew money by electronically transmitting funds into separate bank accounts in Canada.
The plea is the result of an investigation by the United States Secret Service.

Rain in Rio: Sharing ideas on corporate volunteering
09 October 2008
by Sarah Hayes, Consultant Director of IAVE Global Corporate Volunteer Council
Rio de Janeiro, Brazil:
A little rain in Rio couldn't stop representatives from seven international companies from sharing good practice, brainstorming new ideas for collaboration in the years ahead, and supporting one another's volunteer programme goals. The fourth Global Corporate Volunteer Council (G-CVC) meeting in two years was, as everyone agreed, the best yet!
Participants were inspired and motivated to return to their companies armed with new ideas and reinforced support from fellow members. Additionally, the unusual weather allowed for members to bond together, enjoy one another's company and laugh a lot!
Vale, one of the G-CVC Founding Members, based in Rio de Janeiro, invited the G-CVC to hold our meeting there, and also hosted a special breakfast the morning of 17 September, which included members of Rio's CBVE (local Corporate Volunteer Council) joining with the G-CVC attendees. The G-CVC gratefully acknowledges Vale's support for our meeting, as details of our event were seamlessly orchestrated so that everyone could receive the full benefit of our time together.
A small sampling of topics discussed at the meeting were keeping employee volunteer programmes relevant in difficult times, strategically aligning the volunteer programme to the business of the company, securing the support of middle management, online tools and measures for high impact programs, and what multi-national companies can contribute to the celebration of the International Year of Volunteers Plus Ten – IYV+10 – in 2011.
The discussions were relevant to all companies represented, and were enthusiastically participated in! Not only were the discussions appropriate for current challenges international companies are facing, but very visionary as well. This group was very enthusiastic and forward-thinking!
In addition to working hard in the meeting, participants enjoyed great food and beautiful scenery (although sometimes you had to look through the clouds to find it!). I doubt anyone who climbed the steps to Corcovado in the blinding rain to see the statue of the Christ on the mountain will ever forget that unique sightseeing adventure! We were also treated to a history lesson on the famous Brazilian Carnival, and I must say our participants all looked great in their sparkly Carnival masks!
Our members also got to meet and spend time with some of the many volunteers of Vale, who came to Teresópolis on our last meeting day for their own annual congress. It was a wonderful time for sharing and learning from each other!
G-CVC members attending were from Vale (Sergio Dias and Alice Santos); Monsanto (Deborah Patterson, Tommie Monroe and Christiane Bracco); Citi (Claudia McNamee); Disney (Belen Urbaneja), American Airlines (Sam Santiago) and Telefonica (Samantha Penalver). Milena Ramos also attended from Pfizer, Sao Paulo.
Joining the G-CVC members were special guests and presenters, including Kenn Allen (CSCG), Bruno Ayres (V2V), Oscar Garcia from Argentina, Carla Sattler from C&A in Sao Paulo, and of course Monica Beatriz Galiano of Iniciativa Brasil, who also was a great help in planning the meeting.
I'd like to thank all who attended, those who presented, and those who organized this event – the G-CVC moves forward with a great stride from Brasil, due to your wonderful efforts! Thank you!

God is Love? - John Charmley - 26-03-2007
Dear Brothers and Sisters in Christ,
I remember reading in Sunday School that 'God is love', but I don't think I really understood what it meant; I wonder if I do now?
I read in 1 Corinthians 13:1
Quote:Though I speak with the tongues of men and of angels, but have not love, I have become sounding brass or a clanging cymbal.and in 1 Corinthians 13:12-13
Quote:12 For now we see in a mirror, dimly, but then face to face. Now I know in part, but then I shall know just as I also am known.I am struck, in this context by these words from St. Isaac the Syrian:
Quote:For God, who is good and compassionate, is not in the habit of judging the infirmities of human nature or actions brought about by necessity, even though they may be reprehensible ... God's use of justice cannot counterbalance His mercy. Like a handful of sand thrown into the great sea, so are the sins of the flesh in comparison with the mind of God.The same Saint also wrote:
Quote:"When we have reached Love, we have reached God and our journey is complete."That God should have so loved us that He gave His only-begotten Son to redeem us is, indeed, an act of love beyond anything we can comprehend. And, just as hate begets hate, so does such love beget love for Him.
How does it seem to others?
In Christ,
god is love - kirk yacoub - 28-03-2007
Yes, John, God is love.
In The Air-Conditioned Nightmare , one of the most unusual travel books
about the USA ever written, Henry Miller describes an extraordinary sight that he came across in the deep south. On the side of a delapidated wooden mission hall in a poor Afro-American district, written in white paint
in large letters were the words:
"You've had enough of the bad news, now here's the good news:
There in the midst of a severe poverty made all the more grotesque by its being in the midst of the richest country on the planet, in the midst of a people which had been in slavery only eight decades previously, a people which still suffered immense indignities, segregation, prejudice and
(un)officially sanctioned lynchings and burnings, was the joyfully defiant
God is love!
There is bad news everywhere, so much of it, in fact, that this had led many people to either doubt the very existence of God, or at least to withhold from Him the epithet of Loving. Yet this proclamation in white paint which contrasts the good news of God's love with the bad news that surrounds us, is the implicit statement that, while love comes from God, the bad news comes from people. To the standard question put by doubters, How can a loving God allow suffering?, there is here implied the
standard challenging Christian response: God does not allow suffering, we
human beings allow it.
God is love. He gave Adam and Eve free will, the freedom to choose, only forbidding them from eating the fruit of one particular tree. Adam and Eve
not only freely chose to break this commandment, they also freely chose
to refuse to acknowledge their guilt and tried to pass the blame onto each other and the serpent.
Our forebears' negative use of free will resulted directly in expulsion from Paradise and the temporal, sorrowful life here on earth that ends with the despair of the grave. Our forebears, heeding the words of the serpent that
they might become like God, fell prey to pride and, like the serpent, the emissary of that fallen angel, Lucifer, instead of acknowledging God's rightness and superiority, decided that human beings know better. The catastrophic result of this arrogance is the deluge of bad news that threatens to engulf us.
God is Almighty, therefore, if He so wills, He can put an end to bad news with a snap of His fingers. But that would deprive us of our free will. Because God loves us He refuses to take away our freedom to choose and act. The deprivation of free will would mean that, yes, we would obey God's will but, without thought and contemplation, without the possibility of choice, without an inner desire to do so, our obedience would be that of automatons. This would be coercion of the most primitive kind, and where there is coercion, there is no love.
If we continue to fight wars, continue to commit genocide, murder, rape, continue to hate, rob, imprison and enslave, if we continue to worship power and wealth, then it is because we human beings have chosen to do so. And, of course, when humankind is accused of doing wrong, then
humankind wipes its mouth and says, "I have done no wrong."
Contrast this pig-headed self-righteousness with God's response: love.
He who could obliterate everything with the blink of an eye offers us recalcitrant, spiteful, hate-filled human beings the gift of love.
Christianity is not conservative, because that implies support for the abominable status quo. No, Christianity is a revolution in human behaviour
wherein all that the world teaches is turned upside down. Are you waelthy? - then sell everything you have and give it to the poor. Do you have enemies? - then love them. Are you being persecuted? - then pray for those who persecute you. Out of the window goes all thought of revenge. Hatred and violence is to be overcome by love and humility.
As so often, Isaac of Nineveh sums everything up:
"In His great love God was unwilling to restrict our freedom,
even though He had the power to do so. He has left us to
come to Him by the love of our heart alone."
The love of the heart alone. God speaks to our heart with love. He who is the Almighty humbled Himself, becoming Incarnate, dwelling amongst us
not with the pomp and majesty of an earthly king, but with the humility and self-sacrifice that is the very incarnation of love.
A Syriac prayer explains that, enormous though the collective sins of humanity is, those sins are but a drop of mud in the vast ocean of God's mercy.
Let us respond to God's love by opening up our hearts to it in joy and blessed relief. we have endured enough of bad news, now is the time to celebrate the news that is good.
Kirk Yacoub
God is love - John Charmley - 28-03-2007
Dear Kirk,
Many thanks for this; you make many excellent points. Thank you for sharing both the American story and the quotation from St. Isaac; both are beautiful and edifying.
St. Isaac wrote:
Quote:When we have found love, we eat the Heavenly Bread, and receive nourishment without labour of weariness. The heavenly Bread is He who came down from Heaven and gives life to the world (cf. John 6:33). This is the food of angels (Psalm 78:25). He who has found love consumes Christ at all times, and becomes immortal from then on.he highlights what an important part love plays in our theosis.
You are right, it is the greatest and most wonderful of mysteries that He loves us as He does. One reason I have always had trouble with those, often of a Calvinist persuasion, who would argue that we are inherently evil, is that we are made in God's image, and so cannot be so.
We inherit the effects of the fall on human nature and on the world, and our own weakened nature will incline towards self-indulgence rather than towards the freedom that is God's will; but we have His Church, His words, and His Sacraments, to help us. We are not alone, nor are we lost.
We may be spiritually sick, but the good news is that the Orthodox Church is the right hospital for our illness, and in it we shall be healed.
As you say, what better news could there possibly be?
In Christ,
Love and Damnation - John Charmley - 07-04-2007
Dear Brothers and Sisters in Christ,
On this Holy Saturday my reading has taken me to this from St. Isaac:
Quote:That we should say or think that the matter of Gehenna is not in reality full of love and mingled with compassion would be an opinion full of blasphemy and an insult to Our Lord God. By saying that He will even hand us over to burning for the sake of sufferings, torment and all sorts of ills, we are attributing to Divine Nature an enmity towards the very rational beings which He created through grace, the same is true if we say He acts or thinks with spite and with a vengeful purpose, as though He was avenging Himself. Among all His actions there is none that is not entirely a matter of mercy, love and compassion: this constitutes the beginning and end of His dealings with us.
How different is this from the conceptions with which I grew up, where God was seen as a vengeful God who would punish us in hell-fire if we did not repent. Here, Orthodoxy seems to me to be offering us a wider, deeper and broader understanding of the God who suffered impassibly on Good Friday.
To reject His love is to impose suffering upon oneself; but He always offers us forgiveness if we will repent and follow Him.
In Christ,

Schulz's character from the comic strip "Peanuts." Is always mistaken as a lesbian by people who judge by watching a couple of episodes but does not read the comic strips or watch the rest of the episodes. she is hopelessly in love with Charlie Brown but clearly doesn't have a chance because she is a tomboy, her hair's split ends have split ends, and she has a big nose. If you don't believe me that she actually is in love with Charlie Brown, go on youtube and look up the clip "Poor Sweet Baby Charlie Brown" and you have your answer. She is love with Charlie, not Marcie and is not well groomed or dressed because poor Patricia has no mommy (no one knows who happened to her).
Peppermint Patty, real name Patricia, sleeps all day in her class. Also look up the clip "Peppermint Patty Cries" on youtube, it will tell you she likes Charlie Brown.

The Hawthorn Elephants
Tributes to Lota
A necropsy is not a requirement of the USDA, but the Sanctuary has always recognized the benefit and has performed the procedure on each of our elephants that has passed away.
Prior to Lota's passing, our necropsy team consisted of Dr. Scott and all of the staff members who wished to participate. It is a difficult procedure to witness when you have spent so much effort caring for the elephant that has passed. In an effort to make sense of the actual necropsy procedure, which is seriously invasive, our necropsies intertwined ceremony with science, becoming a sacred procedure. The findings were written up and reported by Dr. Scott in a concise and straight-forward style, one that a lay person could easily understand.
Lota's passing marked the beginning of a new era at the Sanctuary in many ways. She was moved to the Sanctuary specifically because she was dying of tuberculosis. Her necropsy was performed by a team of vets and scientists headed by the US Department of Agriculture. The staff took a back seat in the procedure to ensure the most thorough necropsy possible, resulting in a procedure that was purely science devoid of any ceremony. Admittedly, this was difficult for the staff but all understood the necessity of an intensive, thorough necropsy. The ceremony would follow when the team of scientists was gone.
All subsequent necropsies have been held to the same high standard of science and performed by an impressive team of professionals from the University of Georgia. We are thankful to this team because in addition to their unsurpassed professionalism, talent and thoroughness, they exhibit empathy for the staff's suffering and respect the need for both elephants and staff alike to grieve. It is a fine line these scientists walk, and they do it expertly.
One of the stipulations made by our necropsy team is that no preliminary report is issued. This ensures that no assumptions are made regarding the cause of death. An official detailed report is issued with the conclusive findings from the indisputable laboratory tests. Many institutions request a preliminary report in order to have immediate answers for the media and the public. We see no reason to ask the team to guess at the cause of death, and instead, respect their desire to let the science speak for itself. The results take several months to compile and provide us with an accurate conclusion regarding cause of death.
Unlike our original necropsy reports which were simply stated, these reports are detailed and written in scientific language. Deciphering the report is best left up to a scientist. We learned the hard way after posting Lota's necropsy report that the contents of the report can be misunderstood, and if taken out of context can easily be used to misrepresent the truth. As result of the misuse of Lota's detailed necropsy report, we no longer post the complete reports on our web site, but we will post a summary of cause of death after we have received the detailed professional report.
Summary of Lota's Necropsy:
A complete scientific evaluation of tissue, blood, and body fluid samples revealed that Lota died as result of an overwhelming Mycobacterium tuberculosis infection.

If a child over the age of 4 has been toilet trained and then passes stool and soils clothes again, this is called encopresis. The child may or may not be doing this on purpose.
Soiling; Incontinence - stool
The child usually has constipation. The stool is hard, dry, and stuck in the colon (called fecal impaction). The child then passes only wet or almost liquid stool that passes around the hard stool. It may leak out during the day or night.
Other causes:
Whatever the cause, the child may feel shame, guilt, or lose self-esteem, and may hide signs of encopresis.
The risk for encopresis may increase with:
The doctor may feel the stool stuck in the child's rectum (fecal impaction). An x-ray of the child's belly may show impacted stool in the colon.
The goal:
It is best for parents to support rather than criticize or discourage the child
Treatments may include:
Most children respond to treatment.
Call for an appointment with your health care provider if a child is over 4 years old and has encopresis.
Toilet train in a positive way when the child is the right age.
If your child shows signs of constipation, such as dry, hard, or infrequent stools, ask your doctor how to treat it.

corrupted USB stick contributed to Spain's worst air disaster on
record, according to a 12,000-page report cited by the Spanish
newspaper El
Pais and
was initially believed that the crash of Flight 5022 that killed 154
people in 2008 was the result of pilot error, but investigators have
now concluded that a computer infection spread through an infected
USB stick may have contributed to the crash. Investigators speculate
that trojan malware may
have slowed down system alerts at the airline's headquarters which could have canceled or delayed
the doomed flight. The report indicates that the computer
failed to detect three problems (including one issue with the airplane's wing flaps being in the incorrect position for takeoff) in a fail-safe monitoring system and
that those problems were brought on by a malicious program that came
from the USB thumb drive. Spanair has been ordered by a
judge to provide all of the company's computer logs from the days
before and after the crash. A final report from crash
investigators is expected by December.One expert warns that
with continued use of flash drives and other third party devices in
systems like these, this type of tragedy could happen again.Senior
manager of security research at Arbor Networks, Jose Nazario, said
that many USB thumb
drive attacks take advantage of security weaknesses in Windows auto
run, a basic component built into the Windows operating
system."Think about how many USB
sticks you have. You're probably under counting. Everyone does,"
said Nazario. "Now think about how many sticks in the past
month your laptop has used, and think about how many other systems
you have used your USB sticks on. This is like those classic HIV
commercials, where you're with everyone that person has been with
