The police report noted that the attack happened near a gay bar on Allen, but no further details were provided by a police spokesman on Sunday night.
The attackers took the victim's wallet and boots. The victim was treated at Erie County Medical Center for facial lacerations, bruising and swelling, according to the report.

At 6-foot-3, 230 pounds, Bishop Guilfoyle Catholic High School senior Jextin Pugh has never had trouble getting noticed on a baseball field.
Pugh's physical size, strength and ability have enabled him to shine on the pitcher's mound, in the field at first base, and with the bat.
He was a Little League phenom in the East End Little League, and became a regular player as a 14-year-old with the Flood City Elite Travel baseball team comprised of players 17-and-under from the Altoona-Johnstown area.
A four-year varsity player at Bishop Guilfoyle, Pugh posted a 9-3 pitching record and batted .550 last spring with four homers and 25 RBIs while leading the Marauders into the District 6-A championship game and PIAA state playoffs.
Binghamton University, a Division I baseball school in upstate New York, offered Pugh a scholarship, and he recently responded with a verbal commitment to attend the school. Binghamton competes in the American East Conference, from which member Stony Brook advanced to the College World Series in Omaha, Neb. this past June.
"I went up there to visit the school, and talk to the coaches,'' Pugh said. "They have great facilities - they just put in a new multi-million-dollar baseball field, and the coaches are awesome.''
Binghamton also offered Pugh the chance to continue to play both in the field at first base, and as a pitcher - a combination which greatly appeals to him.
"I did a lot of research on the school,'' Pugh said. "They have a very strong non-conference schedule, they're always playing great competition, and they have a really strong recruiting class for this year and next year. They're going to have a great team, so maybe it will be a chance to go to Omaha.''
Rick Roberts, a coach with the Flood City Elite baseball travel program, said that Pugh has all the physical skills necessary to succeed in baseball. Pugh will also participate this month in the invite-only Major League Baseball Scouting Bureau's game that pits outstanding players from around Pennsylvania against the Allegany (Md.) Community College baseball team on Allegany's home field.
"He's got a fast ball up around 90 miles per hour, and he has really good power at the plate,'' Roberts said. "He's also learned how to hit for average. He's going to be a two-way player [in the field and on the pitcher's mound] at Binghamton, which is really impressive for a kid to do at the Division I level.''
Even more importantly, Roberts pointed out, is that Pugh possesses solid character and a fine work ethic.
'The thing that stands out about Jextin the most is his character and work ethic,'' Roberts said. "He's a great kid, a great team player, probably everything you'd want as a coach or as a teammate.''
Pugh's character is reflected in his community awareness and involvement. Along with his family, Pugh is helping to organize a concert at the Altoona Railroaders Museum on Saturday, Oct. 20 to benefit two area youngsters - Johnny Fleck, 12, and Zachary Treese, 8, both of Hollidaysburg - who live with Type I diabetes.
"There will be two bands playing, a lot of food, and speakers will be coming to talk about juvenile diabetes,'' Pugh said. " I want to do something that will help others.''
In December, Pugh will participate in the Power Showcase Home Run Derby at the new Miami Marlins Stadium. While Pugh will be attempting to knock baseballs out of Marlins Park, pictures of his two young friends, Fleck and Treese, will be displayed on the stadium scoreboard.
"A scout recommended me to be in it,'' Pugh said of the Florida event. "I'd love to hit every pitch out of the park, but my main goal is just to do well.''

Kim Clijsters did not last long at the French Open. The Australian Open champ bowed out in the second round, losing to Arantxa Rus 3-6, 7-5, 6-1. Her 15-match Grand Slam win streak is over.
Clijsters is a two-time runner-up at the French Open, but it really isn't all that surprising that she wasn't able to advance very far at Roland Garros this year. After all, this is the first tournament she's played in since the Sony Ericsson Open back in late March.
Water under the bridge, one supposes. Wimbledon will be here in no time, and Clijsters needs to start preparing if she is to make it past the semifinals for the first time.
Meanwhile in the baseball world, the San Francisco Giants' quest for a World Series repeat has been dealt a huge blow. Buster Posey was injured in a collision at home plate late last night, and the word coming out today is that he is probably going to be out for the season.
In the racing world, speculation regarding the future of IndyCar/NASCAR driver Danica Patrick is swirling like never before. Her IndyCar contract expires at the end of this season, and many people think that will give her the perfect excuse to switch to NASCAR full time. And as it turns out, one very prominent driver is interested in joining forces with her.
It is yet another busy day in the world of sports. For all the latest news and notes, just keep it here and wait for updates.

"It's funny – I didn't try on that many dresses," Sarah Michelle Gellar said on the red carpet at Sunday's Golden Globes. "My 2-year-old [daughter Charlotte] walked in, walked up this dress and said, 'Mama, wear this!' So I put it on and said, 'OK!' "
"She really went for it," the Ringer star, 34, adds. "She chose the bag and shoes. I let her pick all of it."
Being a mom means fewer movie date nights for Gellar and husband Freddie Prinze, Jr. – they still haven't seen Bridesmaids, she admits.
"I have my stack [of DVDs] and Bridesmaids is at the absolute top," she tells PEOPLE. "With a 2-year-old, you start a movie when they go to sleep, and between work and [Charlotte] ... I'm so tired."
However, "I saw Annie five times today starting at 6 a.m., so if that's nominated for anything, go Annie," she jokes.

The pop singer, who was in New York City, took a spin around the famous ice skating rink at New York's Rockefeller Center just hours after the news broke that she was dissolving her two-year marriage to Federline, citing "irreconcilable differences."
Spears, who stepped out in a low-cut dress and black fishnet stockings, also spent part of Tuesday dining out with friends at the New York's Baldoria, a traditional Italian restaurant in the midtown Theater District, where she smiled and waved at fans.
Complete Britney Coverage
Federline, meanwhile, continued his promo itinerary on Tuesday, driving nine hours on his tour bus to reach Chicago. Arriving at the House of Blues Hotel at 10:15 p.m., he then waited in his tour bus until there was access to the hotel's loading dock so that he could enter through the back entrance.
Says a source at the hotel: "He looked depressed, like he was going to cry. He looked down the whole time and didn't make eye contact."

Rated 4.4 out of 5 by 8 reviewers.
Rated 5 out of 5 by TerriJ Great Find I love this toiletry kit! It holds a lot. I can't believe what all I packed in it on a recent trip. I wish I would have had it sooner. Will never leave home without it when traveling. I have it in blue, very nice!! October 1, 2013
Rated 5 out of 5 by LindaCrus what a great find This is by far the BEST toiletry kit ever! It is roomy and sturdy and fits well inside the suitcase. There is more than enough room for cosmetics, lotions, toothbrush, toothpaste and whatever else you might need. You won't regret making this purchase! February 9, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by Lululu Easy on the hands! This hanging toiletry kit is large and folds up nicely! And it is great for slightly arthritic hands which have difficulty grasping and opening typical clamp closures. The hanging hook is perfect! March 14, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by Lindaaz Great for travel Great organizer for short or long term travels. Holds all my toiletries and makeup and all is easily accessible and easy to see. September 12, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by cecc Great Toiletry Travel Bag This has many pockets, is a good size, and will be great to put all my toiletries in when I travel. March 24, 2015
Rated 4 out of 5 by crazyred I had wanted to order this toiletry kit for some time and recently did. But I am going to have to return it because I am very disappointed in the fact that It does not have a handle on it - just a small one further in the back which is used to hang on possibly the back of a door.or to latch onto a piece of luggage. Long story short, I want something that size that is hand held while walking or to take on the plane as a carry-on.. so disappointed! July 8, 2014
Rated 3 out of 5 by OrganizedTraveler Disappointed I was hoping for a larger bag. It does not allow for full size bottles. If you use full size bottles you have to lay them on their side. I wanted it to go in my luggage to hold the liquids too large for the carry on. I still had to pack some bottles in a different case. July 2, 2014
Rated 3 out of 5 by FLDAB Appears to be well made, but poorly designed. It does not hang flat. And the mid-section with a firm base shelf prevents it from folding down to a smaller overall size. They should have made the shelf floor fold up when not needed. This would have reduced the overall size to just the amount of contents. July 2, 2015

This week, PEOPLE readers were reeling from news of relationships in turmoil: Khloé Kardashian Odom and Lamar Odom are leading separate lives, Miley Cyrus and Liam Hemsworth broke off their engagement, and David Tutera and his estranged husband plan to raise their twins separately.
Luckily, Clint Eastwood's son Scott Eastwood kept us feeling optimistic by bringing sexy back, offering a repeat performance of his father's good looks.
These are the five stories that incited the biggest reactions over the past week, from happy, sad, laugh out loud, angry and "wow." Keep coming back to click on the emoticons at the bottom of each story, to let us know what you think.
Miley Cyrus stopped following Liam Hemsworth on Twitter, foreshadowing the eventual announcement that they've called off their wedding. PEOPLE readers couldn't help but giggle at the on-again, off-again romance – it's been something of a roller-coaster ride.
Our readers loved the Utah dad who taught his daughter a fashion lesson in trashy vs. classy by cutting off his own jeans to create a pair of too-short shorts. He made sure the message was received by wearing them to dinner, mini golf and then ice cream with the family.
PEOPLE readers were saddened by the news that Khloé Kardashian Odom and Lamar Odom are living apart. Their separation caps a tumultuous period for the basketball pro, who's been struggling with substance abuse and was arrested for DUI.
More relationship woes: PEOPLE readers were upset to learn that celebrity wedding planner David Tutera and his estranged ex plan to raise their twins separately.
The light at the end of the tunnel was the handsome Scott Eastwood, who looks like he's ready to headline a Dirty Harry sequel – and we're happy to watch.
Check back next week for another must-read roundup. Until then, see what readers are reacting to every day by clicking here.

Managing Manure to Improve Air and Water Quality
Stay Connected
Economic Research Report No. (ERR-9) 65 pp, September 2005
Animal waste from confined animal feeding operations is a potential source of air and water quality degradation. Pollution from animal waste poses challenges to farmers and to resource managers because it can affect multiple resources while environmental laws typically focus only on a single resource. This report assesses the economic and environmental tradeoffs between water quality policies and air quality policies that could require the animal sector to take potentially costly measures to abate pollution, based on a farm-level analysis of hog farms, a national analysis including all sectors, and a regional assessment in an area with high animal numbers.
Keywords: Animal waste, nitrogen, ammonia, water quality, air quality, nutrient management plan, manure management costs, price and quantity adjustments, CAFO

PerkinElmer acquired Haoyuan Biotech, a Shanghai firm that focuses on the development of infectious disease diagnostics. PerkinElmer officials say the acquisition extends the company's capabilities into nucleic acid blood screening and in molecular clinical diagnostics market in China.
The Haoyuan acquisition adds four infectious disease assays into PerkinElmer's product portfolio. These infectious disease diagnostics tools include a qualitative 3-in-1 assay for the detection of hepatitis B (HBV), hepatitis C (HCV), and human immunodeficiency virus (HIV), two clinical quantitative assays that screen for HBV and HCV, and one qualitative assay screen for Chlamydia trachomatis and Neisseria gonorrhoeae.
"By combining PerkinElmer's robust disease screening capabilities with Haoyuan's proprietary reagents and equipment, the company will be able to offer highly sensitive systems and assays for quality detection of blood-borne infections for the Chinese market," said Robert Friel, chairman and CEO of PerkinElmer. "Integrating Haoyuan's screening products with PerkinElmer's diagnostics capabilities will help to further advance the health of the Chinese people by offering leading technology that ensures accurate diagnosis of infectious diseases at a low cost."
The acquisition marks the latest move by PerkinElmer to increase its investment in China. Two months ago it set up a new customer knowledge center (CKC), a global software R&D team, and an application development center, based out of the new Shanghai headquarters. The CKC will serve as a demonstration center for PerkinElmer's instruments targeted for the diagnostics, life sciences, environmental, food, and chemical markets. It will also operate as a customer user training center.
The global R&D group will help accelerate the research and development and time-to-market of both PerkinElmer's instruments and software, according to the company. At the global application center, chemists and scientists using PerkinElmer instrumentation, software, and consumables, will work on developing application methods and turn-key solutions to address customer needs in the environmental, food safety, and other industrial end-markets specifically for China as well as across the globe.

Sex and film go together like sex and dressing rooms or sex and portable toilets. And a lot of times it's pretty awesome, like in the cinematic tour de force that is Joanna Angel's entire career. But other times it becomes weird, like in Lars von Trier's Antichrist or Howard the Duck. But there's something even more insidious than a Willem Dafoe BJ on a scary tree, or Lea Thompson fucking a duck, and that's the subtle and generally-less-than-subtle symbolism that filmmakers will toss into movies that aren't even about sex.
Sexual imagery is amazing at eliciting a physical and emotional response from a viewer, one that probably mixes arousal and revulsion. Why revulsion? Because penises and vaginas have very clear and defined roles in our lives, and when you start making them do other things (symbolically), shit gets weird. Trust me, I'm an Internet comedy writer. I know what I'm talking about.
#5. Aliens
The most infamous example of sexual imagery run amok is the result of disturbing artist H.R. Giger and director Riley Scott. The entire Alien franchise is nothing but dicks and butts and vaginas that want to hump you into oblivion. It's not enough that it's sexual imagery; it's sexual imagery that wants to hurt you so bad, you feel like you're watching Prometheus.
We've told you before about how the aliens are just giant penises with even smaller penises in their constantly ejaculating mouths, and how the chambers in the alien pilot vessels are all accessed through giant vaginas, but if you try to actually add up all the imagery in just one Alien movie, you'll be up to your neck in labia and foreskins before the third act. Look at the face hugger. It's an ass with a vagina on the bottom and penis fingers. The vagina is actually at the end of a penis that gets forced down your throat once the penis fingers hug your head and squeeze its butt-body all tight against you. It then proceeds to peen-vag your throat so hard that you end up with a baby penis-headed monster inside you that explodes its own birth canal out of your chest.
So ... was it good for you?
The alien Queen has a giant vag chute that deposits gross eggs everywhere, each one a big, green seed pod with huge labia on top. Whenever someone gets close enough to stimulate them, the labia spread wide open. The Queen's tail is a massive dong that rips Bishop in half through the process of penetrating him -- he gets fucked right in half!
The entire franchise is built on a foundation of sexual terror: the fear of being violated by the Other, by something different from oneself, in a violent and uncontrolled way. The aliens are a semi-organized and inexplicably intelligent species of interstellar rapists that will violate you to death and actually use your violation to fuel the cycle by producing another of their kind from your pain. As Alien 3 made abundantly clear with the alien/dog hybrid, the alien offspring is partially born of the genetics of its host animal, meaning your little rapist baby is literally, genetically a part of you. You're not just victimized once, you're forced to partake in the victimization of another generation of victims. That's even worse.
#4. The Predator's Face
The only real reason to have the Predator meet the Alien species is to compare vaginas. The Predator is the ultimate misogynist vagina dentata monster, an advanced alien hunter with unstoppable technology, a pathological need to kill, and, hidden beneath its armor, a screaming, fang-filled vagina mouth that mocks you with the sound of your own laughter and curse words.
Look at the original Predator film: the manliest men in the history of all time, plus Hawkins, with massive guns in a hot, steamy jungle. It's sweat and muscles and massive barrels on the hunt. But the thing they're hunting is also hunting them, watching them as they fumble about through the woods chasing their own tails, learning about them, playing with them until it decides to make its own move and start picking them off one at a time. The entire movie is an "alpha male's" skewed perspective on dating -- women on the prowl, using and abusing men who, despite all their power, still fall victim to the sly and subtle cruelty of the pussy. And that's all it is, it just has a vagina face. There's nothing else feminine about it because the entire female has been reduced to one body part that now has teeth in it.

Fap ... fap ... fap ... fap
At the very end, the most dominant of males must face off directly with the beast, look it in its true face, and finally use his own cunning, fighting subtlety and subterfuge with subtlety and subterfuge, to destroy it. And the final showdown has the hero staring in bewilderment, asking, "What the fuck are you?" because he can't even figure out what the thing he's been after for so long is or what to do with it. And how does it respond? Derisive mockery, followed by an over-the-top explosion. It is the irrational woman making fun of him and then going ballistic.
You may think I'm really reaching here, but so many scenes parallel this hunter/prey sexual relationship, it's uncanny. Consider Mac firing blindly into the woods as he's joined by the rest of the group -- a whole platoon of men shooting their weapons off aimlessly, being led by their dicks, if you will. And when the creature finally does bleed, who notices? The woman. If it bleeds, we can kill it -- its blood is a sign of weakness now. How this movie hasn't caused a feminist film critic to explode is beyond me.
#3. The Starship Troopers Brain Bug
Starship Troopers is a mind-boggling mix of satire, boobs, and terrible acting. It curiously melds to form a very fun movie to watch, just so long as you've had a cocktail or two ahead of time to help ameliorate all the Casper Van Dien and Denise Richards you're going to have to endure. If the two of them got together to perform Waiting for Godot, Godot would show up halfway through and punch them both in the neck.
Against the backdrop of an interstellar war against bugs who, for whatever reason, decided to team up despite being different species and having nothing that appears to be on par with human-level intelligence or civilization at all, we're eventually introduced to the brains of the whole bug operation, the cleverly named brain bug, which is the unit that coordinates bug efforts and seems to have some cunning and military planning skills, so good for him. Also, he's a giant turd with a vagina face that houses a secret splooge-covered stab-cock that can eat brains. That's pretty dramatic.
Darrickphoto/iStock/Getty Images
Go on, push it in real deep. Get a little slimy.
The entire brain bug body is rendered as amorphous and vaguely gross. It looks kind of like CG intestine, if nothing else. Only the face, with many eyes surrounding its terrifying vagina maw, has any definition, and capturing this thing is the biggest coup for the human military in the entire film. Capturing this magnificent space twat is what turns the tide of war and gives humanity the advantage. And how does that even occur? Doogie Howser has to use some goddamn superpowers to figure it out. You need a gay man using government-honed psychic abilities to understand space vag, because otherwise it's not just a mystery, it's a sinister, all-intelligent, and devious one responsible for countless deaths and, somehow, the destruction of Buenos Aires.
Also, if you're caught alone with it, it will stab you in the brain with its Bowie dick and suck your brains out. If it literally fucks with your head, it will then be able to figuratively fuck with everyone afterward by using your knowledge against you. Did the same man who wrote Predator write this? Surprisingly not. But the same conclusion can be drawn here as in Predator -- the vagina is a mysterious hole that will lead to your destruction unless you have superpowers to overcome it.

Want to get so fit you might impress the first lady?
Michelle Obama isn't likely to be in Buffalo on Sunday, but chances are that one of the activities taking place in the Promise Neighborhood would really spark her interest. In any case, it could make you healthier.
The city is one of only 10 spots in the country that has received a "Play Streets" grant, designed to close off a different swath of streets so that bicyclists and pedestrians can have free rein on them.
Police and organizers will barricade parts of Manhattan and Mercer avenues and Hill Street in the Promise Neighborhood from 12:30 to 3:30 p.m. Sunday.
"We'll have everything from mobile repair bike shops to Zumba classes," said Justin Booth, executive director from Go Bike Buffalo, the nonprofit group that landed the $50,000 grant for the Play Streets program. "It's really trying to engage people in lots of different activities, physical activities, things people can do to make themselves healthier, but also try to build community and make healthier and safer neighborhoods.
The program is championed by BlueCross BlueShield of WNY, the Blue Cross Blue Shield Association and the Partnership for a Healthier America, of which the first lady is honorary chairwoman.
Play Streets is designed to address childhood obesity in city neighborhoods.
Walking, jogging, skating and bike riding are encouraged. Dancing, sports and other physical activities also are part of the fun, as is information about healthy eating. Locally grown foods also will be available; on Sunday, that will be courtesy of the Massachusetts Avenue Project.
Future Play Streets days are:
• June 2 – Masten District (Wohlers and Northland)
• July 7 – Seneca Street (between Peabody Street and Oakdale Place)
• Aug. 4 – Allentown (Allen Street)
• Sept. 1 - West Side (Rees Street – Richardson Complex of Buffalo State College)
The program is free and open to the entire community.

The results of the Manny Pacquiao-Shane Mosley bout could have major ramifcations in the boxing world.
For starters, this isn't just for the WBO welterweight championship when the two meet on Saturday night, May 7, at the MGM Grand in Las Vegas.
No, Pacquiao's pound-for-pound title is on the line here, too.
Mosley is 39 and coming off two lackluster performances—a unanimous decision loss to Floyd Mayweather and a draw with Sergio Mora.
Mosley, at one time, much earlier in his career, was considered boxing's pound-for-pound champion. He might not get it back, even with a victory, but Pacquiao will most certainly lose it with a loss.
Then it becomes a question of whether the unofficial title goes to Mayweather, who hasn't touched a boxing glove in anger in more than a year, or to someone else. It will be interesting to see how all of this shakes out, because the results of Pacquiao vs. Mosley have the potential to truly up-end the boxing world.
Would that be enough to coax Mayweather out of his shell to fight Pacquiao? Would Mayweather fight Mosley a second time? Where does Sergio Martinez stand in all of this?
We'll find out late Saturday night.

One Pennsylvania College of Technology fall sports team ended its season last week and two others head into Penn State University Athletic Conference championships this week.
Penn College golfers placed second in the PSUAC and eighth in the United States Collegiate Athletic Association championships, which ended last Tuesday, and later this week the college's cross country runners travel to PSU Brandywine on Saturday and its tennis players head for University Park on Saturday and Sunday for conference finals.
During two-day action on the Penn State Blue Course, Daemon College was the top team in the USCAA with a total team score of 605 while Penn State Mont Alto was the victor for the PSUAC with a 649 (sixth for USCAA). Six Penn College golfers shot a combined 678.
Freshman Jesse Newman was the top finisher for Penn College, placing 37th after shooting 84 both days. Sophomore Corey Teeple bounced back from a 91 on day one to shoot a 79 (170 total), good for 45th. Both Newman and Teeple earned spots on the PSUAC All-Conference Team.
Rounding out the Penn College effort were freshman Bryce Petersheim at 49 with an 82-89-171; junior Alex Howe at 58 with an 84-90-174; sophomore Nicolas Krupka at 62 with an 89-87-176; and freshman Brian MacPherson at 82 with a 97-90--187.
At the tournament, the USCAA announced the All-Academic Team award winners of which MacPherson was a recipient. To earn the award, the golfers had to have a cumulative grade point average of 3.5 or higher.
In the PSUAC West Division, the Wildcats, with three wins and a second-place finish in four matches, won the regular- season championship.
"It didn't turn out the way we had wanted (with a conference title), but it's one of those things where one minute you are on top of your game (and the next). The guys went out and just didn't have their stuff," said Penn College coach Matt Haile. "Overall, it was a good season. They worked really hard and that's all you can ask for."
Cross country
The Wildcats finished their regular season by topping a seven-team field of all-PSUAC schools, despite being short a couple of its runners.
In the conference championship, Penn College will field a full men's team but has just two women who will compete as individuals.
"I'm assuming, because we haven't lost this year to any of the PSUAC schools, that we're going into the championship as the favorite. We're going in with a positive attitude and I think I have the 'horses' that will be able to pull out the victory," said coach Mike Paulhamus.
Top Penn College runners are Dan Starr, Dan Blauvelt, Dan Flynn, Mike Acquaro and Ed Knyff. Top women are Eileen Harrington and Michelle Holzmann.
"If we win, it will be our 10th consecutive men's championship and 11 out of 13 since I've been with the college," Paulhamus said.
Team tennis
On Wednesday, for the second time this season, Penn College defeated PSU Mont Alto by a 6-3 score. Jordan Rodgers, Christopher Morrin, Nathan Scott and Adam Smith all won both their singles and doubles matches.
The team ended its regular season Saturday with an 8-1 win over PSU Lehigh Valley to go to 7-1 in the conference. Scott, Smith and Taylor Lapointe won both their singles and doubles matches.
"We're looking really good going into the tournament. Our guys are playing extremely well And our girls are competitive as well, so we have a good shot at winning. We're in a great position heading into next weekend," coach Robert Kemrer said.
Kemrer named Smith and Rodgers as having a good shot at singles titles and his men's doubles teams of Scott-Smith and Rodgers-Morrin also as title contenders.
In recent years, Penn College won conference team titles in 2008, 2009 and 2010 and finished second last season.
Women's soccer
A 6-0 win over Valley Forge Christian College on Saturday improved the team's record to 8-2-1. Six players scored goals for Penn College. Reda Vermilya and Kirsten Foti shared the shutout in goal, notching four and two saves, respectively.
Men's soccer
In their only match of the week, the Wildcats, behind a season-high, four-goal effort from Chris Brennan beat PSU New Kensington, 6-1, on Thursday to improve to 8-0 in the PSUAC and 11-2-1 overall.
Women's volleyball
Penn College stayed unbeaten in the conference on Wednesday with a 3-0 (25-6, 25-7, 25-7) win over PSU Scranton. Tara Powell, of Burgettstown, was tough on the service line with 11 aces. Courtney Gernert, of Palmyra, led with 10 kills and Caitlyn Curley, of Middletown, had 19 assists.
Back in action Thursday, the Wildcats swept PSU Harrisburg, 3-0 (25-12, 25-11, 26-24). Gernert had 14 kills and 10 digs while Curley led with 25 assists.
Penn College's unbeaten PSUAC string continued Saturday as it downed PSU Greater Allegheny, 3-0 (25-12, 25-12, 25-14), and PSU Beaver, 3-0 (25-21, 25-13, 25-14). Tara Powell totaled 22 kills and Curley had 44 assists on the day.

Agree. Until Big E and Abby actually win a fight or Bert lands a meaningful punch, Toots is the guy.
Spot on. Tootoo is our toughest guy. He is not tough, though. Kocur was tough. Probert was tough. Id put Tootoo on a toughness level of Dino, but without the offensive punch.

Flexible with Style
By DMurf
from Broken Arrow, OK
There are those times when you are not able to carry or get caught not carrying a journal or notebook. The action cards provide a great method to capture ideas and action items in the moment and to share these with others in your group.They are small enough to carry in a pocket and stylish enough to show them proudly when you are in a meeting.These cards handle any ink that I have thrown at them. I am a fountain pen user by choice and these cards look great with all my inks.The grid pattern on the back allows for the free form capture of ideas or to create mocks of design or process flows. That is the great thing about these cards, you make them what you need them to be.
Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

Great for Staying on Task
By DianeJ
from Bonney Lake, WA
I am the kind of person who gets easily overwhelmed when I have a stack of huge projects in front of me. Breaking items down into manageable bites works wonders on my stress. It also works wonders on my productivity. These cards are the perfect size for pocket or purse. They are sturdy enough to tote and hold up well when a dribble (or more) of coffee hits the page.As helpful as these are for me, they have been great for my middle school boys as well. They are learning to break down tasks and can easily pin these on their cork board and the bright orange sets them out so they aren't forgotten.The quality is great, sturdy and smooth. Ink glides over well and looks vibrant.
great organizational tool
By MattL
from Pittsburgh, PA
I carry what my mom calls "my stylish pocket protector", aka the Bomber Jacket Pocket Briefcase. I purchased these to keep in it. I take a lot of customers to coffee, lunch, dinner, etc and this is nice and portable. Without a doubt work comes up and I have something handy to take notes. When I get to a place where I have time I can easily translate the to-do's in to my permanent organizational system
Good Stuff
By ChefM
from Atlanta, GA
I love these cards. Makes separating ideas easy. Great for work when I want to leave behind quick notes for my staff.
Great reminders!
By KeepMeOrganized
from Undisclosed
I really like the sturdiness of these cards and the colorful design. I use them for reminders, quick notes, and shopping/errand lists. I like that the reverse side has dots only so I can customize my notes. The blue ones are my favorite.
Stylish and Functional Note Card
By minimcg
from Seattle, WA
I use these notecards to post on my board as a reminder of my various projects. They are stylish enough to have displayed while keeping me organized on the tasks that need to be done. The quality of the paper is also incredible.
I like this!!

I had a bad stroke eight years ago. One of the hardest things is to rebuild a life. This helps me stay organized my way. thanks!! Riza
Great cards - fountain pens feather a bit...
By DMReview
from PA
Bought these to use in the pocket briefcase, and to accompany the Action Method circa. Great design and concept.Was disappointed that the paper-stock is not the same quality as that used in the circa paper though. It actually feathers fountain pen ink pretty badly. It won't bleed through to the other side, but the feathering is quite noticeable.Best to use these with pencil or ballpoint I'd say.
Merchant response: Thank you for your review. I am sorry that this has happened to you. I will send you a direct email with how we can handle this for you. I will also pass your concerns on to our Product Development & Design Team.
Useful with the larger journal
By Milync2
from Boston, MA
Great for quick daily action lists, I use these with the action journal. A little pricey, but great quality and love the dot grid on the back.
Action cards
By northerner
from Nova Scotia
I really hadn't thought I needed these particularly, but they are very useful, especially in tandem with the journal. I found myself whipping off action lists for various projects with little mind-maps on the back as I traveled across the country, , and I was all organized and ready to go on arrival. The text boxes and check boxes really do allow for the creation of a list that's more effective than the jotted-on-any-surface lists that I have been generating for decades.My only complaint is with the shipping. A box! With a few tiny packets of cards!! To Canada! They could have been popped in an envelope- and should have been.

A Cognitive Approach to Fraud Detection

Journal of Forensic Accounting, Vol. VII, Issue 1, pp. 65-88, 2006
University of Alberta School of Business Research Paper No. 2013-676
Fraud detection is usually done by looking for red flags and various other cues of deceit. Research in auditing and psychology has questioned the effectiveness of these methods. Here we summarize work on constructing a new cognitive approach to understanding both success and failure at detecting financial statement fraud (Johnson, Grazioli, Jamal and Berryman 2001; Johnson, Grazioli, Jamal and Zualkernan 1992). We begin by analyzing the information processing problem than an auditor must solve to detect the presence of deceptive financial information. We then describe a theory of the solution to this problem, i.e. a theory of successful fraud detection. The theory is used as a yardstick to evaluate the actual behavior of Big 4 firm audit partners engaged in the review of real cases of financial statement fraud. An analysis of the errors made by these auditors allows us to formulate and test hypotheses on where they succeed, where they fail, and the cognitive processes that underlie both success and failure.

Patrick Kennedy Welcomes a Daughter
Weighing 6 lbs., 11 oz. and measuring 18¼", the newest member of the Kennedy clan was born at 3:11 p.m. at the Atlanticare Regional Medical Center in New Jersey, where the family now lives.
The couple, who wed in 2011, already have a son, Owen, 18 months, while Amy has a daughter Harper, 5, from a previous marriage.
"Amy and I are thrilled to welcome Nora to our family and are thrilled that both mom and baby are doing well today," the son of the late Sen. Edward Kennedy said in a statement. "Harper and Owen are so excited to meet their baby sister."
Little Nora joins the Kennedy clan just days before the family remembers the 50th anniversary of the assassination of Patrick's uncle, President John F. Kennedy, on Nov. 22.
"This is an important year for the Kennedy family, especially this week as we remember President John F. Kennedy," the former congressman said. "As we celebrate the birth of our daughter alongside our wonderful families, we honor the memories of those never far from our thoughts and turn a bittersweet time a whole lot sweeter."

Maryland Occupational Safety and Health (MOSH) Unit Addresses New Safety
Rule on Hazards in Tree Care & Removal Industry
BALTIMORE, MD (October 9, 2012) - The Department of Labor, Licensing and Regulation's (DLLR) Maryland Occupational
Safety and Health (MOSH) unit will host a Tree Care Safety Conference on October 10, 2012 from 8:00 a.m. until 4:00
p.m. at the Howard County Fairgrounds, located at 2210 Fairgrounds Road, West Friendship, MD. 21794 in the Main
Exhibition Building. Participants will receive information on Marylands New Tree Care and Removal Regulation and
gain information on how to become a DNR Licensed Tree Care Expert (LTE). The afternoon will be filled with
educational demonstrations on Crane Safety, Chipper Safety and Climbing Safety. The Department of Natural Resources
(DNR), Injured Workers Insurance Fund (IWIF), Maryland Arborist Association (MAA) and The Tree Care Industry of
America (TCIA), partnered with DLLR on this event.
"Workers must be trained to identify existing and predictable hazards associated with tree care and removal
work. Then they will be able to eliminate the potential for serious injury and death," said Ron DeJuliis, DLLR
Commissioner of Labor and Industry.
The purpose of the Maryland Tree Care and Removal Regulation addresses safe work practices for tree care and
removal as well as safety requirements for tools and equipment. DLLR seeks to prevent injuries and accidents
related to tree care and removal in construction, demolition, and general industry.
In the United States from 2003 through 2010, there were 493 tree-trimmers and pruners working in landscaping,
construction, utilities, and other industries who were fatally injured while performing on the job. Of this
number 313 were killed when they were struck by a tree or log, according to the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics'
occupational injuries and illnesses data. Since 2008, in the state of Maryland, 10.2 percent of occupational
fatalities investigated by MOSH occurred while working in tree care and removal activities.
The Department of Labor, Licensing and Regulation protects and
empowers Marylanders by safeguarding workers, protecting
consumers, providing a safety net and cultivating a thriving
workforce that can meet the demands of Marylands dynamic
economy. Follow DLLR on Twitter

Their mission: Making breakfast burritos for the city's homeless, something they've done for 167 consecutive Sundays since November of 2010.
Comprised of a core team of seven high school boys and a small army of volunteers, they've given away more than 51,000 burritos and counting.
"We show the homeless community that we're not giving up on them, so they shouldn't give up on themselves," explains Alec Johnson, 15, who started the Burrito Boyz nonprofit with his father, Michael, 49, and best friend Luke Trolinger, 16.
The Burrito Boyz (which includes classmates Nick Peeleman, 16; Joe Skvarna, 15; Cole Smith, 16; Justin McDonald, 16; and Julian Wahl, 16), along with the Burrito Babes (Girl Scout Troop 5273) have expanded their mission over the years.
They now also provide books, clothing, rain tarps, toiletries and have been known to host occasional spaghetti dinners for the homeless as well.
"It's heartwarming to know that someone cares," says Eddie, 60, a former construction worker who is now homeless and did not want his last name used.
"They treat us like human beings," he says. "They're not just a charity, they're our friends."
Says San Diego City Councilman Scott Sherman, who explains the homeless population, many of whom are veterans, has spiked dramatically since 2008: "These boys aren't just giving handouts, but a hand-up by showing them that everyday people care."
The nonprofit began after Alec, then 12, presented his Christmas wish list to his parents in 2010: an iPhone, MacBook Air and other pricey items.
"I thought, 'Holy cow. My son's growing up quick, asking for such mature items,' " explains Michael, a former sports marketer.
"My wife, Mehrnaz, and I instead decided to teach him what's important in life," he says.
The very next weekend, they handmade 54 breakfast burritos in the family kitchen – paid out of their own pocket – and greeted the less fortunate on the downtown streets with the hot meal, bottle of water and a touch of dignity.
"It felt like punishment at first when my dad told me the idea," Alec says with a laugh.
"But to see human beings sleeping on the cold ground outside, it really touched me," he says. "To realize how much they don't have, and how much we do. It's a huge part of my life now."
Trolinger agrees.
"We learned to see the person beneath the grit and the grime," he says. "They're just ordinary people down on their luck."
Cordaryl Johnson, 26, is one of those people.
"This is God working in mysterious ways," says Johnson, an unemployed construction worker who has been living out of two cars with his wife and five children for the past several weeks.
"Once we get on our feet," he says, "I'll be right back here helping to volunteer."

Mission The International Myeloma Foundation (IMF) is dedicated to improving the quality of life for multiple myeloma patients while working toward prevention and a cure. The IMF provides a variety of services for patients and physicians to aid in the research, diagnosis, and treatment of multiple myeloma as well as patient support groups, medical education programs, and seminars.
Established in 1990 by Brian and Susie Novis and Dr. Brian G.M. Durie, the IMF is the world's first non-profit organization dedicated to multiple myeloma research, patient support, education, and advocacy. "When Brian was first diagnosed with multiple myeloma, there was no place to turn for detailed information. Education can be a very powerful tool in coming to terms with a diagnosis of cancer," said Susie Novis, IMF president. "In establishing the IMF, we wanted to help prevent future multiple myeloma patients and their families from experiencing the same sense of isolation we had to struggle with, while paving the road for extensive research aimed at discovering a cure."
Governance and Operations
The IMF is a 501(c)(3) non-profit foundation and receives funding from corporate, individual, and foundation supporters. Headquartered in Los Angeles , the IMF is governed by a board of directors and guided by a distinguished board of scientific advisors comprised of 64 medical experts internationally recognized as leaders in the field of multiple myeloma.

Dame Elisabeth Murdoch, Mother of News Corp. Chief, Dies at 103
Dame Elisabeth Murdoch, mother of News Corp. Chief Executive Rupert Murdoch and one of Australia's most generous philanthropists, died Wednesday at age 103.
Mrs. Murdoch died surrounded by family at her home at Cruden Farm, southeast of Melbourne, in the Australian state of Victoria. She had suffered a fall in September at her home.
Mrs. Murdoch is survived by three of her four children—Mr. Murdoch, Anne Kantor and Janet Calvert-Jones—and numerous grandchildren and great-grandchildren. Another daughter, Helen Handbury, died in 2004.
"Throughout her life, our mother demonstrated the very best qualities of true public service," Mr. Murdoch said. "Her energy and personal commitment made our country a more hopeful place and she will be missed by many."
Born in the Melbourne suburb of Toorak in 1909 to parents of Anglo-Irish heritage, Elisabeth Greene, as she was then, married war correspondent-turned-newspaper publisher Keith Murdoch in 1928. According to her biographer, he spotted a photo of Miss Greene, a high-school debutante some two decades his junior, in one of the weekly magazines he published and arranged a meeting.
Mr. Murdoch was smitten, and despite some protests from her father, the courtship continued. The relationship was cemented when Mr. Murdoch rescued his bride-to-be from the surf after she was caught in a rip current while swimming at Sorrento beach on the Mornington Peninsula, near Melbourne.
Following her husband's death in 1952, which gave the young Mr. Murdoch his start toward building the global media empire he presides over today, Mrs. Murdoch devoted herself to good works. She supported more than 100 charities, with particular interests in the arts and in children's health, and was made a Dame Commander of the Order of the British Empire, one of Britain's highest civilian honors, in 1963 for her services to social welfare. In 1989, Australia awarded her a similar honor, Companion of the Order of Australia, for service to the community.
Before her 100th birthday celebration in 2009, then-Prime Minister Kevin Rudd praised her contribution to Victoria state, the city of Melbourne and the nation, calling her a centenarian with a "turbo charge"—a reference to her community involvement even in her advanced years.
Despite the honors, Mrs. Murdoch wasn't ostentatious. She once banned a secondhand Rolls-Royce her husband brought home, signaling a lack of pretense that extended to the wider Murdoch clan even as their wealth grew. Her home at Cruden Farm—considered a noteworthy example of landscape gardening—was often opened to the public.
Just as her son established a reputation for a hands-on approach to his growing media business, Mrs. Murdoch never shied from hard work. She was president of the Royal Children's Hospital in Melbourne, and one of her lasting achievements was the establishment of the Murdoch Children's Research Institute, focusing on child health.
She had a sharp intellect. As the wife—and then the mother—of a media baron, Mrs. Murdoch entertained countless high-profile business guests over the years but famously never forgot a name. Although she once said "home duties" were her only official qualifications, Mrs. Murdoch was an avid political watcher and was once considered a possibility to become the country's first female governor-general, the queen's official representative in Australia. The honor later fell to Quentin Bryce, who was sworn into the role in 2008.
Throughout her son's career, the pair remained close: Mr. Murdoch in September canceled business meetings in Australia to tend to his mother after her fall.
News Corp. owns Dow Jones & Co., publisher of The Wall Street Journal.
A patron of the arts, Mrs. Murdoch supported the development of Australian ballet and became the first female trustee of the National Gallery of Victoria. She was a founding member of the board of the Australian Tapestry Workshop, which produces hand-woven contemporary tapestries and encourages weavers. A tapestry of Mrs. Murdoch in the garden at her Langwarrin home hangs alongside portraits of other noteworthy Australians at the country's National Portrait Gallery in Canberra, testament to her support.
"She's a work of art in her own right, but more importantly a work of heart," Ted Baillieu, premier of Victoria state, said last year at the opening of a walk dedicated in her name at a 40-acre gallery and sculpture park near her home.
Mrs. Murdoch summed up her philosophy on life in an inscription at the start of the walk. "Giving to the community is one of the most important, rewarding things people can do," she wrote.
