Have a bit of everyhing (22 to 45-70), but I have a sweet spot for 6/6.5mm in rifle. I find the 17s a bit ridiculous so 22LR is as low as I go.
In regards to pistol, my largest is .45 cal. I have no need for a 44, 454 or 460. Had a 380 on the low end and sold it...9mms are small enough these days that I can't really see the point unless it's in a platform you just can't live without.
Shotgun is 12 and 20 only. Wouldn't mind a 28/410, just haven't got around to replacing the ones I used to have (Beretta 4 bbl set).
Why? I dunno...those are the guns that appeal to me and are available when the cash is burning a hole in my pocket. Also, sometimes I find a sport, and need the right tool for the job (camo auto shotgun for waterfowl, o/u for clay games, 338 LM for long range, etc).

Oh, a simpler version of the caliber war! It depends on what you're doing, but for self defense I generally prefer a smaller caliber. Yeah, it makes a smaller hole, but in the grand scheme of what you actually hit, a larger caliber rarely makes a difference. Penetration is more important, and that is usually determined more by bullet design than caliber (at least to get to the 12" minimum) in a decent SD cartridge. Smaller calibers tend to be lighter, in lighter/smaller platforms, and have higher capacity, while being cheaper and having less recoil. In terms of cost/benefit, they do a good job.
For target shooting, it would depend on the range for me. Close range something lighter so it's easier on me. Long range something heavy so it carries better. Either way, quality is more important than caliber.
If I were hunting I'd want something that hits hard on the first hit without completely pulverizing the animal (in other words, .50 BMG might be a bit much for squirrel). I don't need to spray 10 rounds like I would in self defense, I'd want to drop that animal right there so 1) it's more humane and 2) it's less work to follow it. That said, I don't hunt, because I'm too lazy to get my own meat when I can buy it from the grocery store that's literally a mile from my condo.

With age, shooters typically move to smaller calibers with less noise and less recoil. These days I rarely shoot my .243 at p-dogs and I am building a 22 Hornet to join my 17HMR as my primary p-dog guns. I prefer plinking with my two .22 semi-auto pistols vs a .45. When I shoot a .45 say 20-30 times, my wrist hurts for 2 days. Getting old stinks.
December 4, 2012, 04:15 PM
I like my .223, .243, and .308 more than my .270 WSM. Probably because they recoil less and don't have quite the muzzle blast.
I also like my .30-30 and .444 Marlin.....
For hunting I like the .308 and .444 because I like knowing that I am sending a more powerful round downrange, but for fun I like the 9mm, .22 LR, .223, and .308....
:confused: I don't know which I prefer :confused:
December 4, 2012, 04:16 PM
I agree. As I get older I find more enjoyment in smaller calibers but I still have the bigger ones, just don't shoot them as much.
December 4, 2012, 04:19 PM
Oh dear, I'm 24 and I moved down from .40 to 9. Am I getting old already?
December 4, 2012, 04:24 PM
I like a my big bores!
My side arm has always been a .357 mag. or a 44 mag. with H110 hand loaded JHP's.
My hunting weapons probably aren't so much big bores as they are high velocity cartridges, 7mm RM and .270 win are my primary hunter's and 12 ga. for bird hunting.
December 4, 2012, 04:26 PM
I'm older than I was...
That can be a factor that drives caliber preference.
I think what has been pushing me to smaller calibers is the reality of what I intend to use them for. For a long time I've been planning on getting an M1A. Why? Excellent barrier penetration, long range and I could hunt hogs and deer with it! Then I realized a 6.8 SPC would give me all of that to the degree I need.
One can get pretty far down into the SHTF fantasy land and justify a need for about every caliber. If you really step back from the interweb/prepped/SHTF obsessed crowd. You can better put into perspective what you are likely to need.
If I ever have the money to blow to go hunt elk of something big, I will also then have the money to buy a nice rifle in a suitable caliber. No sense in keeping some overkill gun for the fantasy hunt or zombie nightmare.
Unfortunately I can see the cost of ammo really start to force more people into shooting 22LR nearly exclusively.
December 4, 2012, 04:59 PM
I like the BOOM of bigger calibers and don't mind the recoil,but the expense can be a bit much.

I'm a fan of the Big Bores and have been for 35 years now.
December 4, 2012, 05:52 PM
When I was younger bigger was better. The last few years I've gone smaller and smaller.
The last few years, I have bought several .22 lr guns, and this last year I bought 5 pellet guns. I can shoot them at home without range equipment.

Caliber preference: Do you find yourself liking larger or smaller calibers?
Seriously it depends. I hunted quite a bit in a thick brush country part of West Virginia I liked the larger calibers like my 444 Marlin lever gun and my little .44 magnum Ruger carbine. When we were going to hunt more open areas I liked a Remington 760 or my Remington 7400 in 30-06. I sort of chose the rifle based on the terrain.
Not hunting as much as I once did I find myself enjoying .223 at the range with some .308 tossed in. Yeah, maybe the age thing. However, as to hand guns pretty much .44 Mag, .357 Mag, and a love of 1911 .45 ACP.
My sister's husband passed away last February and Mike was an avid shooter. Mostly high power matches shooting 30-06 and 300 Win Mag. When he developed cancer and slowed down he really got into .22 rimfire bench rest shooting. I have been thinking about that. I inherited thousands of rounds of .22 match ammunition. :) I am not getting any younger either.
December 4, 2012, 06:31 PM
Oh dear, I'm 24 and I moved down from .40 to 9. Am I getting old already?
Im 23 and used to love the .40, now I can't stand it. I think it has more to do with realizing the 9 is every bit equal to the .40 in the long run. I personally used to prefer big heavy slow bullets to fast little ones. Now, the exact opposite.
December 4, 2012, 06:41 PM
I like 'em all.
I carry a .45 ACP 1911, but that has much, much more to do with familiarity than with caliber preference.
December 4, 2012, 06:41 PM
.22 for Target Shooting
Advantages: Inexpensive (that is the bottom line these days...and yes the 'age' factor too).
December 4, 2012, 06:47 PM
Well id say I am kinda in the middle my hunting rifle is a 30 06 and my shotgun is a 12 gauge I do own some rimfire stuff and my ccw pistol is a 357 snub so i guess id lean to the bigger stuff. Mainly because Ive found these calibers to do exactly what I ask of them.
December 4, 2012, 06:52 PM
I prefer calibers smaller than a 10 pounder.

Yes. I try not to discriminate. :)
December 4, 2012, 06:53 PM
Caliber preference: Do you find yourself liking larger or smaller calibers?
I like 9 and 45.
I also like 5.56 and 7.62 NATO.
December 4, 2012, 07:01 PM
In rifles, I like small calibers because I shoot more varmints than meat. I have a .308 for long distance range work, but my field rifles are .22-250, .223, .22LR, and .17HMR calibers.
Handguns, I prefer .45acp. As I shoot more often and more rounds, and SD ammo has improved, I've expanded to include 9mm. Last, and least, are the .22LR plinker pistols (cheap fun, great practice).
Shotguns - 12 when I gotta get it done, sometimes 20 when I'm just busting clays.
December 4, 2012, 08:46 PM
I am kind of a medium type guy, somewhere between .25 & .35............
December 4, 2012, 08:50 PM
I guess I have turned into sort of a big bore fan . In handguns I prefer .44 or .45 caliber .
In Rifles I used the 30-06 for about everything including praire dogs. (medium bore)
December 4, 2012, 09:28 PM
That's alright! That's your preference for your use.
I'm not a hunter. But from what I've read 6.8 SPC is plenty hard on deer and hogs. I definitely "get" why some prefer heavier slower bullets. Less factors for error to creep in (barrel length, twist).
From what I've read hunting is similar to self defense in terms of shot placement, bullet design being more important than caliber.
I suppose with hunting. Where you may shoot just a bit to get your rifle sighted in then just one or 2 shots at your game causes less concern about cost of ammo, recoil and other consideration. So perhaps for a hunting gun its good to go a bit over what's needed?
Overall...I'm a target shooter/IDPA shooter and concealed carry practitioner.
IDPA/concealed carry/home defense: 9mm is for me. (I flirt w the idea of getting a 380 to encourage carrying more but don't consider going up in caliber at all).
"Extreme situation" defense: 223/556 I get that 308 is the big dog. But about everything else the round brings with it is a drawback. I've read I could hunt some with 223/556 but it seems most consider it marginal for deer. Hence me looking at 6.8 uppers.
Home defense: 12 gauge (used to consider going down to a 20 gauge but the semi-auto has greatly reduced recoil) I suppose this would work for some hunting applications as well.
Range fun/small game: 22LR (probably my favorite round) 22mag is cool and so is .17 but I don't see me leaving 22LR!
I said all that to say this: I've put a lot of thought and consideration into the calibers I can realistically justify. I posted to see what kinds of thoughts you all have had in this pursuit and if its led you to larger or smaller calibers.
December 4, 2012, 09:46 PM
You know?
Regardless of caliber, I like the lower pressure cartridges to shoot: not interested in a .40S&W, 10mm or .38Super when I can still shoot a 1911 .45ACP.
I don't enjoy shooting a .357 as much anymore, so I shoot homemade .38 p+p at a load that I feel comfortable with at the club.
Sold my .41 Mag Ruger Blackhawk years ago and carry a Bearcub .22 for backup when I'm hiking/hunting/fishing. Plus a 3-4" fixed blade for cleaning the occasional fish.
I hunt with a .50 or .54 cal muzzle loader most of the time so that's a big caliber but low pressure report.
I've got tennitius; my ears ring all the time.

December 4, 2012, 09:54 PM
We should definitely discuss eye/ear protection more. I double up and have been thankful to not have any noticeable hearing loss.
December 4, 2012, 10:03 PM
I'm 24 and still love my 40 and 45. :D
Carry weapons are either .22Mag/.380/.327/9mm/40/45. Never any preference on "I don't wanna carry something large today" more like "I'm going to the gym and need something small" or "this shirt doesn't conceal well, time to take out the 9mm."
December 4, 2012, 10:06 PM
My favorite caliber of all time is 22 Long Rifle. But, for serious or specialized purposes, I want something bigger.
December 4, 2012, 10:30 PM
As time has gone by I find that I prefer lighter and smaller calibers more. No sense in beating yourself up when you don't have to. Perhaps it is age creeping up on me.
December 5, 2012, 12:07 AM
I tend towards smaller calibers, because I like the shortest, lightest gun I can get, so my favorite deer caliber is .257 Roberts, though I seem to have a bunch of 91-30s... But my latest M-N project is down to 6.5 lbs.
December 5, 2012, 12:32 AM
I will always be a big fan of the .22LR just because it's so much fun to shoot and it's still relatively inexpensive to do so. I have my fair share of smaller calibers as well as the big bore cartridges but lately I have been gravitating to .380 and 9mm. in my handguns. Primarily for CCW I just find myself attracted to the smaller sized guns like the Beretta Nano and SIG-938.
December 5, 2012, 12:45 AM
I would have to say I prefer larger calibers, but only as it applies to power. My favorite guns to shoot are 460 Weatherby and 458 Lott in rifles, 500 S&W and 44 Magnum in handguns.
However I don't like them just because of their caliber. For example I don't like 45-70, 45 Colt, 45 ACP or 50GI because they are wimpy compared to other smaller caliber rounds.
December 5, 2012, 10:02 AM
I'd say I go for the smaller side.
I along with others love the 22LR because its cheap enough to get plenty of practice with and easy on anyones shoulder.
When it comes to centerfire cartridges a 9mm is the top choice if we are talking pistol calibers. My hunting and target/plinking rifles are either going to be 223/5.56 or one of my 25-06's. It all depends on the task at hand.
I own larger calibers like 454 Casull, 338 RUM and 458 Win Mag. But, cost of operation plays a part in how much something gets brought out.
December 5, 2012, 04:18 PM
I find myself going larger.
December 5, 2012, 05:36 PM
I am all over the map....I carry a. 40 G23 at work, while off duty. I may go 9x19,9x18 or 7.62x25 as the spirit moves me.
December 5, 2012, 05:48 PM
I love both. have .22lr's for fun and 44 and 357 mag for hunting and carry a 9mm
December 5, 2012, 05:55 PM
I like the BOOM of bigger calibers and don't mind the recoil,but the expense can be a bit much.
+1. I reload so it takes a lot of the sting out of the 44 mag and 41 mag shooting.
December 5, 2012, 06:08 PM
how 'bout just not large?
Really though I tend to like the medium/smaller cartridges.
My favorite handgun cartridge is .357 Sig (i know, i know :rolleyes:) but I shoot .40, 45acp and colt, 38SP, and .357 Mag. I just bought a 9mm for a carry gun and am looking forward to the cheaper ammo!
My favorite rifle cartridge to shoot is the .22 LR followed by the .223, then 30-30, then the .243, then the .308.
I am just not a fan of the hard recoiling rifles.
I figure if i can't kill it with a .308, it gets to live. :D
So I guess I like the Small and Medium calibers.
December 5, 2012, 08:06 PM
i have lots of handguns but prefer the 45 both acp and long colt.cast bullets and a dab of shotgun powder. very easy to shoot. for rifles i prefer 6.5, 243 or 223.i have got a 22 mag but it costs more to shoot than my 223 reloads.
December 5, 2012, 08:29 PM
Auto loading Pistols: I like 9mm and .22lr. A lot of that has to due with getting more bangs for my bucks. An hours pay and I can shoot all day. 9mm for carry and defensive, .22lr for plinking, teaching and training. Had a .45 but couldn't afford to shoot it.
Revolvers: Don't own one. I'd love a S&W 686, it's on my dream list.
Shotguns: 12 gauge and 20 gauge. Had a .410, sold it, will likely get another as an inheritance, but not something I'd ever buy, unless I get the wife the Judge she wants. :rolleyes:
Rifles: I shoot .22lr, 5.56 NATO/ .223 Rem, and 7.62x54r only, at this point. I'm looking at a Savage bolt gun for my next rifle, and I'm looking hard at the 110 in .308. But I really don't want to stock another caliber, so it'll probably be another 5.56 chambering.
If I even get into black powder revolvers, I'd get something that starts with a 4.
December 5, 2012, 09:14 PM
I am all over the map....I carry a. 40 G23 at work, while off duty. I may go 9x19,9x18 or 7.62x25 as the spirit moves me.
As the spirit moves me. I like that.
December 5, 2012, 09:20 PM
I am not much of a shooter. Love guns and own a lot, but just dont shoot much. Other than to sight in my deer rifle, hunting, and the mandatory practice with my SD pistol, I dont shoot anything bigger than a 22lr. I guess I prefer smaller calibers. My deer rifle for this season is a 6.5x55 Swede. My current HD pistol is a 9mm. But the only guns I enjoy to shoot just to shoot are 22s. I am becoming more interested in 17s and other 22 caliber rounds. I would like a .222 and a 22-250. I have no desire to get a 338.
December 5, 2012, 09:28 PM
Smaller, I guess. Less expensive, faster follow up shots, greater capacity, still effective.
My primary calibers are 9x19 and 5.56x45
December 5, 2012, 09:41 PM
Over the years I have gradually progressed to the larger calibers. Like most I started off with.22 then the .38 spl the. Then the magnums and I really do enjoy the larger Calibers. Especially the 44 mag, .45 Colt and .45acp. Cost isn't a big factor as I reload for all my handguns.
As far as rifles, pretty much the same story. I love my old Marlin 30/30 and the Enfield .303. The 7.62x39 also gets a workout but they don't feel as good as the bigger bores.
I will sometimes grab one of my .22 rifles or handguns and enjoy an afternoon plinking with them but its not quite as satisfying as the big guys.
I just love to shoot. so whatever comes to hand gets used.
Overall, I guess the .357 Mags get the most use.
December 5, 2012, 09:41 PM
"...do you find yourself liking larger or smaller calibers?"
And everything in between....
December 5, 2012, 09:51 PM
Favorites? Hmmm. I go back and forth between large and small and medium.
.30 cal remains my go-to hunting cartridge. I have a few larger caliber rifles. I enjoy a good thump from a high powered rifle.
I have several 45's and 9mm, so I don't need a 40.
I shoot more 5.56mm/.223 than anything else at present.
Everyone should have a .22 or two or three. Least expensive way to enjoy a whole day shooting.
So.. no? No real preference up or down.

Actually the older I get the more a fan of the smaller calibers I become.
5.45x39mm because I absolutely LOVE my AK-74. Just an amazing rifle that can do so much and besides, I have a "bit" of Russian surplus ammo stockpiled. :cool:
I'm also a HUGE fan of my .32 and .380 pistols. You know why? Because I carry one EVERY SINGLE DAY no matter what. And yeah, they are Walthers, what can I say I'm a Walther guy. For a small, concealable, self defense pistol I have no qualms whatsoever in carrying FMJ in a .32 or .380. I LOVE my PPK and PPK/s. And I shoot them VERY WELL. Practice practice practice!
Don't get me wrong, I love my 9mms and .45 too, they are just too big and uncomfortable to carry everyday. I also love my WWII surplus rifles in the big "man's rifle" calibers but my "go to" will always be my 74. It really all comes down to function.
This is completely overlooking .22 which has already been identified as nothing less than completely awesome for so many reasons. :D

December 5, 2012, 10:05 PM
I have gone to 45 and 40, my 9s sit in the safe,I want to stop it with 1 or 2 shots, as most times there are more than 1 attackers
December 5, 2012, 11:25 PM
As technology advances, you can do the same with smaller...
December 6, 2012, 07:30 AM
My favorite target shooting rifle is my Marlin 22MAG. At 75 yards, it shoots dime sized groups every time when I do my part.
My just-for-fun rifle is a TC flintlock in 45 caliber. Its a hoot to shoot!
December 6, 2012, 01:10 PM
I went straight to the bigbores when I first started, from .22lr to .44mag in one fell swoop' and liked it alot. Nowadays I like things more in moderation and while I still love my bigbore revolvers they just don't get shot much anymore due to the cost. I mostly shoot paper, spiners or clays, no need for a lot of horsepower, muzzleblast and recoil. 9mm, .38+p, .22lr, .223 & 12 ga are what gets shot now. I have been looking at the new 300 blackout with interest as I think it'd be great for the 200 yard or less distances I shoot. I guess I end up in the middle.

.45 ACP for target shooting, .25-06 for hunting, and 12 gauge for home D'~! ;)
December 7, 2012, 06:30 PM
45,49,9, in that order of carry, the 9 is usually my back up, even though it may have more rounds in it. Whoever comes at me is going to get a 45 or 40 delivered to them first, then only after i run out of 45 lead, or a malfunction occurs, will I switch to the 9. 12 gauge Benelli for the house, and slugs if I need to stop a very big threat, and AR for everything else.

It's hard to imagine a more volatile time than the last two weeks in the Hamburg Central School District:
• The superintendent abruptly resigned, then the School Board put him on administrative leave.
• The board ended a civil lawsuit over a secret recording in which the district tried to unmask an anonymous blogger.
• The organizer of a private summer school canceled the session because of the lack of a superintendent.
• Yet another secret taping surfaced, along with charges of inaccurate campaign filings.
The latest tape is reportedly a conversation between a School Board candidate and a supporter, discussing campaign finances, sources inside and outside the district said. The new tape was delivered anonymously to some community members.
This new tape also was discussed by Superintendent Steven A. Achramovitch when he met June 24 with three newly elected board members who took office last week. And that meeting played a part in his decision to retire Aug. 9.
"I think that confirmed a decision that I was most of the way there with," Achramovitch said. "Based on our meeting on Monday, it confirmed for me I was going to retire."
Achramovitch said he had a duty to disclose the information on the tape to the School Board, which he did, and to the three incoming School Board members. He said he also filed a complaint with the state Attorney General's Office.
"A significant concern had been brought to my attention, which indicated the candidates may have filed inaccurate or incorrect financial disclosures with the district," he said.
The three candidates, Laura Heeter, Catherine Schrauth Forcucci and David Yoviene, said their filings are correct, and vehemently deny any wrongdoing.
"I have six children and a husband," Heeter said. "There is no way I would embarrass myself in the community by doing something stupid like this."
Yoviene said he also stands by the disclosure forms, which he called "pristine."
He said the three candidates ran as a team and evenly split most of the costs. He also donated money to Heeter and Schrauth Forcucci.
He said he thought the meeting was to be an orientation, and he was surprised to hear of the superintendent's resignation two days later.
One of the casualties of the uncertainty is a private summer school program.
Sharon Raymond, a parent, said in a letter to parents that she developed the Hamburg Horizons program with the support of School Board members and ran it the past two summers. Parents pay tuition, which support the cost of teachers and scholarships for those who can't afford tuition.
"Now that the leadership of Superintendent Achramovitch is gone, I am going to cancel the school this year as I have no one to work within the district with no leader named to take his place," she wrote.
The program was to run from Monday through Aug. 9.
Board Member Sally Stephenson said she learned the program was being canceled last Wednesday.
She said several retired teachers offered to help run it, but no one could reach Raymond. That left the district with no information on who was teaching what courses, or who the students are, since it was a privately run program.
"It's obviously a disappointment to the parents," Stephenson said.
Some of the parents may appear at the board's reorganizational meeting Tuesday evening.
At that meeting, the School Board will choose a president and vice president, and possibly announce its plans for replacing the superintendent.
"I would like to have an interim superintendent appointed," Stephenson said.
Stephenson brought attorney James D. Tresmond forward to be the new legal counsel for the district, noting that he is a certified administrator, and he was hired. But Tresmond, the former principal at Masten Park Secure Center, said he will not be the interim or permanent superintendent.
Tresmond's resume states he has practiced criminal defense, real estate, DWI and civil litigation. He also has filed a class-action lawsuit against New York's SAFE Act gun control legislation.
Much of the tumult in the district stems from a School Board meeting that happened to be the first Achramovitch attended as interim superintendent on Sept. 21, 2010.
The meeting is notable, because someone secretly recorded the executive session and distributed the recording to various members of the community. A State Supreme Court judge later deemed that executive session to have been illegally convened.
Then last June, the old School Board initiated a lawsuit, seeking damages from Stephenson, her daughter, Lindsey, who was terminated as a probationary teacher that night, and current teacher Martha Kavanaugh, claiming they taped the session. They deny they taped the meeting.
Last week, the new School Board voted to discontinue the district's involvement in that lawsuit, and the board dropped Harris Beach as the district's law firm.

Error in the ABAP Application Program
The current ABAP program "SAPLV61Z" had to be terminated because it has
come across a statement that unfortunately cannot be executed.
Error analysis
An exception occurred that is explained in detail below.
The exception, which is assigned to class 'CX_SY_DYNAMIC_OSQL_SEMANTICS', was
not caught in
procedure "SEL_KONDTAB" "(FORM)", nor was it propagated by a RAISING clause.
Since the caller of the procedure could not have anticipated that the
exception would occur, the current program is terminated.
The reason for the exception is:
An Open SQL clause was specified dynamically. The contained field name
"VKORG" does not exist in any of the database tables from the FROM clause.
Please advise how to solve this problem.
Tell your SD guys to check their pricing customizing assigned to the Sales Organization that you are trying to post the sales order and especially their condition tables. A condition table has been created with the key field VKORG but this has probably been removed later and something has not been activated. It is definitely a problem with a condition table.
Reward please if it helps.

Hi George,
Thank you ever so much for your post. I developed a complicated pricing procedure with lot of unconventional fields. Because of this, I faced the above error. And with your help, I was able to resolve it.
Thanks again.
Warm regards,
See if note 668658 helps.
This is something to do with pricing configuration.
Check with your functional consultant.
hi Raghu,
Check whether the table is having the company code added in the value range...
or else please try to Adjust & Activate table for company code....
hope this may be useful...
Thankyou very much for your reply.

HARPERS FERRY - Black Friday brings the masses out to the large chain stores, and some stores are cutting into Thanksgiving Day by opening earlier and earlier each year. This holiday shopping season also brings the opportunity for citizens to shop at local businesses within their communities, rather than spending dollars at larger retail giants.
Cindi Dunn, who owns The Vintage Lady in Harpers Ferry, is a big supporter of local businesses and what those companies can do for the community. Dunn said that while many places are getting things ready for Black Friday, she is mainly focused on Small Business Saturday.
"This is our second year of participating in Small Business Saturday, and last year it was huge. I had advertised through Facebook and sent out a newsletter, but I was shocked at the number of people that showed up," Dunn said, adding that she believes even more shoppers will turn out for this year's event.

Shops in Harpers Ferry are preparing for the upcoming holiday shopping season.
American Express began promoting Small Business Saturday in 2010, which fell on the Saturday after Thanksgiving and just before Cyber Monday.
Local businesses can use the Twitter hashtag "SmallBusinessSaturday" to provide information to shoppers on what local communities and businesses are saying about this weekend's sales and events.
American Express also offers a small business locator on its website.
As for her shop, Dunn plans to give away gifts to the first 30 visitors she has, in addition to having chocolate chip cookies for her customers.
"We'll have clothes on sale, and a section in our shop that will feature a special sale. We are really pushing shoppers to shop at local small businesses," Dunn said.
Dunn also supports her community and local organizations through charitable giving, and she strongly supports arts and handmade gifts that are from West Virginia.
"I believe it's been estimated that about 68 percent of the money spent in local businesses stays in the local community. Small businesses really are the biggest employer in the country," Dunn said.
When it comes to encouraging others to support local businesses, Dunn said her philosophy is simple: If a shopper has 20 items on their list to purchase, choose a number, even as small as 5, to purchase locally.
According to the National Telecommunications & Information Administration, there are more than 21 million small businesses in the United States which employ more than 50 million people, which equals approximately 57 percent of the workforce.
Dunn encourages consumers to start out shopping small and local. She also said to be sure to compare prices, because often shoppers have the idea that small businesses will have higher prices, but it is important to check this out.
"It's our responsibility to support our country, and part of that is supporting small, local businesses," Dunn said.

How-to: Stencil on Vinyl Record Albums to Create a Custom Upcycled Sign
I have a gigantic vinyl record album collection.
Seriously, I have hundreds of records. I listen to them every day, everything from the Annie soundtrack to Led Zeppelin, and my little girls can handle a record player as easily as they can a cassette player (yep, we kick it REAL old-school around here), and easier than they can handle a CD player or my ipod.
One of the problems that you encounter when you scrounge and scavenge as many records as I do, however, is that most people don't know how to store their old records, and so the majority of records I come across are scratched or warped or just plain pathetic.
This project takes five of those pathetic vinyl record albums and upcycles them using my Cricut, some cardstock, and spray paint, to turn them into an awesome stenciled music-worshiping sign for my living room and my craft fair booth. Follow along for the full tutorial:
To stencil your own vinyl record album, start with vinyl that is clean and dry, and cut a stencil to fit it.
You can cut a stencil out of practically any material. If you want to re-use your stencil numerous times, you may want to purchase template plastic (hint: you can find it with the sewing supplies), but more eco-friendly options include recycling cardboard or using up stash cardstock. Contact paper isn't particularly good for the environment, but it is sticky, so it makes a good stencil for vertical surfaces, or for stencils with islands that you just can't do without. For this particular project, I'm giving some cardstock that's already been drawn on another use before recycling it.
You'll also be able to find sources for stencils almost everywhere. The internet has loads of free stencils to download, as do several more recently published books at the library, and die cutting machines often make great stencils. For this project, I'm using the stencil alphabet on the Dinosaur Tracks Cricut cartridge to cut out the letters that make MUSIC.

I'm a little confused about Ashley's work ethic because I always thought that she was an example of hard work compensating for a relative lack of natural talent (i.e. the opposite of Mirai Nagasu's reputation). IIRC Ashley herself has talked about how she knows she isn't as naturally talented as some other skaters but that she could outwork them (in her TSL interview, I think).
and yet this Rafael Arutunian interview from Absolute Skating seems to suggest otherwise:
You were in Sochi with Ashley Wagner. She was in a difficult situation after finishing fourth at US Nationals. How did you help her survive all the media pressure and be at her best for the Olympics?
What we did is that we concentrated on her for 2-3 weeks. And she received the best attention. But if she wants to compete and be the best, she cannot rely on only 2-3 weeks. Her training must be done at the highest level all year long. I dont really read a lot of what they say and write. We concentrated on what we were able to do, and everything had to be done in the best way, down to the smallest detail. In sports there is no irrelevant detail; all details are important. If you ignore the small details, they will hit you back. So always make everything perfect - they way you train, the way you live, how far you live from the ice rink, who teaches you, and who does your choreography. Its not perfect every time, not even in the USA.
What is her best quality as a skater?
I think its her performance, the way she performs. Technically she needs to develop and she needs to change her work ethic; she needs to work more, which is difficult, but I think that its not too late to change that.
I think Ashley is just different than many other skaters. I mean, she's totally opposite to Japanese skaters, even to Gracie and Polina. She has her own style and many people can call it "lack of talent". You know, she just doesn't meet the standards, she's creating the new ones And I think she's absolutely aware of this. And maybe Artunian wants her skating to be more fluent, more "classical" if you know what I mean. She was working hard to pleased of herself and she wants to work even harder to please the judges. It's just an ideaI'm a little confused about Ashley's work ethic because I always thought that she was an example of hard work compensating for a relative lack of natural talent (i.e. the opposite of Mirai Nagasu's reputation). IIRC Ashley herself has talked about how she knows she isn't as naturally talented as some other skaters but that she could outwork them (in her TSL interview, I think).
I am not a fan but I respect how she carried herself during that selection nightmare.
I don't love Marai. I respect her. My favorite skater is actually Gracie Gold.
As to the point of the Super Bowl and other sports, Skating is an Olympic Sport and uses Nationals as an Olympic trial. In any other sport (let's say swimming) that isn't a team sport like soccer or basketball, they use the placements of the Olympic trial to determine the team and don't intervene unless a hopeful who is world ranked is injured. If they don't place, tough bananas, better luck next time. Some of those hopefuls are famous and are even the main marketing faces of the federation. Skating is the only sport I know of that will replace a skater due to politics and ignore the supposed Olympic trial's placements. What happened to Marai was dead wrong to everybody involved and I don't care if they thought Ashley would place higher, tough bananas, better luck next time don't bomb at Nats.
I like Ashley very much. With Mao, Yuna, and Carolina out, she is one of the most engaging performers left in the ladies' field. I love how she into her programs on the attack, and how much sass and fire she shows. Her Samson & Delilah program really showcased this, and I hope her future programs will do the same. Her candid off-ice personality only enhances this and makes me like her more. Same goes for the whole Sochi debacle. Nationals being the sole selection criterion never made sense to me. Ashley earned her spot with years of solid skating. If Mirai wanted to go so badly, then maybe she should've skated well on a regular basis, instead of once every four years.
Yes, Ashley needs to improve her tech, but I wouldn't write her off any more than I'd predict Olympic medals for Gracie or Polina.
Also, not that this matters, but if I must address it: Ashley is absolutely beautiful and I'm confused why anyone would think otherwise.
Also, I don't really get why people have such a hard time with the idea that placement at Nationals does not automatically = on the Olympic team. It is a national competition, but it is not called the Olympic trials. Other sports have a specific competition called "Olympic trials" that is often separate from Nationals. Figure skating does not have this. Also, the USFSA said before Nationals that the placements would not necessarily be the eventual team members. Granted, most casual viewers would have no idea of this, but if you care enough to be more than a casual viewer this was not a secret.
My two cents. Harding without the jumps and lead pipe.
To the OP's point about how Ashley is recieved I'll say this. Ashley is very abrasive and carries herself in an almost polarizing way. I think that is why she is so well recieved by some and kind of puts others off. To me it's fine and makes for but I can see how her attitude both on and off ice isn't well recieved by all.
I said it on another thread but I really hope she puts on a bit more of an endearing program this year. I suggested Hallelujah by Jeff Buckley because I consider her a very powerful skater and the contrast from such a light yet powerful song mixed with deep edges and powerful emotion could capture some hearts next season. Sometimes beautiful music = beautiful skater in the eyes of fans. It would take a powerful display of skating to not be overshadowed by the music but the vocals on that particular song act more like an instrument which make it perfect IMO for competitive skating. Clearly a gamble too which might payoff big for her and prove to be wise at this point in her career. I guess what I'm saying is she needs to maybe stop trying to prove to the world both on and off the ice that there is a place for her and instead just skate her way into people's hearts. Carolina was a master in selling herself as a veteran and someone to root for. I like that approach much better for someone at this point in their career.

As the country marked the anniversary of the 9/11 terror attacks last week, the World Trade Center Health Program told CNN that approximately 1,140 people have been certified to receive cancer treatment under the WTC Health Program, including NYPD officer Reggie Hilaire (right), who worked without a mask at ground zero. The numbers are the first released since the WTC program was expanded a year ago. At that time, IMF Chairman Brian GM Durie, MD, registered support for the inclusion of myeloma as a cancer resulting from the 9/11 terrorist attacks in a letter to the WTC program here. READ CNN REPORT HERE
Myeloma patients experience fatigue for a variety of reasons. It can be caused by the disease, by treatment, and by the understandable anxiety and/or depression that affects many. The IMF's new booklet "Understanding Fatigue" contains a thorough examination of the causes of myeloma fatigue, strategies to help cope with it, and suggestions for discussing fatigue with your doctor. Part of the IMF's "Understanding" series, this booklet is an online-only publication.
Congress is back from summer recess and it's time to remind its members to stand with myeloma patients! The Cancer Drug Coverage Parity Act, HR 1801, has 60 cosponsors. Even if you have sent them an email or signed a postcard, let's continue to remind them that they can make a difference for cancer patients across the country by supporting legislation equalizing the out-of-pocket cost for oral anticancer treatments.

Duke Nukem Forever Review
The nicest thing Gearbox and 2K Games could have done to Duke Nukem Forever would have been to spend their marketing budget on a cannon powerful enough to fire the source code into the sun.
So, after 14 years in development, Duke Nukem Forever actually happened. I was a virginal, bespotted 11-year-old when the game was originally announced in 1997, desperately eager for a continuation of the off-colour humour and explorative design I adored in Duke Nukem 3D. With the complete product finally in my 24-year-old hands, a celebratory occasion in itself after such a tumultuous development, I can safety say that such anticipation was completely and entirely undeserved.
Duke Nukem Forever should have never been released. It is one of the most lacking, uninspired, and outright inadequate games of our times, unsuccessfully attempting to cover its staid construction with nostalgia afforded by the series' former glories. It would have been utterly disappointing in 1997, let alone 2011.
In spite of the extensive time spent in development, Duke Nukem Forever feels painfully unfinished and shockingly uninspired. Its fatal flaw is that it tries, unsuccessfully, to blend the modern style of shooter with retro sensibilities. So, despite Duke asserting that "power armour is for pussies", you've got recharging health and a two-weapon inventory system mixed with an entire genre's worth of linear paths.
Duke Nukem Forever's protracted development clearly smacks of a foggy, uncertain vision, and nowhere is this more apparent than in the game's basic mechanics. It baffles me that the bulk of Forever's arsenal has been entirely carbon copied from Duke Nukem 3D (14 years and not even a single idea for an inventive new weapon?) but it makes even less sense to use most of these powerful guns in a game that's trying to be a cover-oriented shooter that doesn't really have any cover.
Massive swathes of the game is simply rote corridor blasting, which is particularly damning when considering how eager fans were championing this as some kind of intrinsic and glorious opposite to modern shooter tendencies in the run-up to Duke Nukem Forever's release. The game not only concedes on its heritage in a desperate rush to gobble up every single trope of modern shooter design, it incorporates them in a particularly dreadful manner.
While it certainly isn't a challenging game (on Normal, at least) the game is prone to odd difficulty spikes. Enemies move fast, their clunky frames of animation still looking positively balletic next to our protagonist's wheezing movement, and dish out plenty of damage, occasionally blindsiding you before you have a chance to properly react.
Boss battles also hit a sour note, dropping you into a tiny clump of land and forcing you to do little more than exchange rockets while you hope the flimsy bit of cover you're standing behind manages to endure the duration of the fight.

What happens when you misspell 'whinge'. See above entries.
Oh dear, I keep misspelling 'whinge' and writing 'winge' instead. I wish I knew how to spell correctly.

Can you define these popular missing words?
Misspelling of whinge, probably due to the way it is pronounced by many people. To whinge is to whine and complain
person a: My little brother likes to winge all the time- he's a pain in the ass
person b: Don't you mean whinge?

One of many contrived words that can be used when real words just aren't good enough.
This example uses the action verb form of the contrived word winge.

INCLINE VILLAGE, Nev. — Corporate Visions Inc. made its name helping big business-to-business companies tell the stories that help them land sales.The acquisition of WhiteboardSelling last week helps Incline Village-based Corporate Vision provide the pictures, too.But a big part of the value in WhiteboardSelling may simply be its name and the position it has staked in the developing discipline of selling through conversation rather than PowerPoint presentations, says Tim Riesterer, a co-founder of Corporate Visions.Since its founding in 2007, WhiteboardSelling has specialized in helping marketing and sales professionals use hand-drawn visual stories instead of fancy documents and PowerPoint slides to sell big-ticket products to savvy buyers.Executives of both WhiteBoardSelling and Corporate Visions cite a Forrester Research study that finds that 88 percent of executive-level buyers want to hear a sales pitch framed as a conversation rather than a prepared presentation.The concept — interactive conversation rather than PowerPoint — has been generating a lot of buzz among sales consultants. Riesterer notes that WhiteBoardSelling owns the name that is commonly used to describe the technique.WhiteBoardSelling teaches sales people how to use visual storytelling — a whiteboard, a flip chart — in a methodical way.A largely virtual company of two staff and 15 affiliated workers, WhiteBoardSelling is loosely headquartered at Austin, Texas, and Santa Clara, Calif.Corporate Visions, too, has staff scattered across the country. It's management owned after a 2010 buyout financed by Hammond, Kennedy andamp; Whitney, a New York City investment firm. James O. Futterknecht, Jr., a partner in Hammond, Kennedy andamp; Whitney, is chairman of the board of Corporate Visions.Riesterer said the owners of Corporate Visions have been looking hard for acquisitions to help muscle up the company, and Corporate Visions first approached WhiteBoardSelling co-founders Corey Sommers and David Jenkins about a year ago.They spurned the offer, but came back this summer to re-open talks."They've had such a trajectory, such a buzz," says Riesterer. Terms of the sale weren't disclosed.Corporate Visions, which has been growing at about a 30 percent annual clip despite the recession, works with clients such as ADP, Oracle and GE to help them develop sales messaging and training that teaches salespeople how to tell their story.Learn more about Corporate Visions at corporatevisions.com.

Young Audiences of Western New York, the organization founded a half-century ago to bring classical music into local schools, has been having a heck of a golden anniversary.
Last year, with help from the John R. Oishei Foundation and other backers, it moved to the second floor of the Central Library and launched an ambitious regional arts education program called Arts Partners for Learning. After a series of popular 50th anniversary events over the past year, the organization's work in the community has never been more visible.
At 7 p.m. Saturday, the group will cap off its yearlong anniversary celebration with a fundraising auction at the Tapestry Charter School. The event, whose honorary chair is the active local collector and artist Gerald Mead, will feature work by local artists as well as some who have gone on to larger fame.
The money raised from Saturday's event – Young Audiences Director Cynnie Gaasch says the group hopes to raise $20,000 – will go into a fund to help schools create and build their own arts programming by providing matching funding.
During the past decade or so, Young Audiences' approach to arts education has evolved beyond bringing the occasional performer to an assembly program. Now, with its various programs, the organization is working to develop more meaningful and long-term connections with local students.
"I would say that the number of students we're connecting with isn't different, but the length of time we're spending with them has changed," Gaasch said. "We're not necessarily making them experts. We're not making them artists. But we're helping them to be comfortable in the arts, and to participate in the arts and to not be afraid of them. You can do that much more successfully when you see them over and over again."
Among its many new programs, Young Audiences recently launched a collaboration with Erie County's mental health and youth services departments to provide troubled teens with arts education in its home at the Central Library. Its ongoing partnership with students at McKinley High School, where Young Audiences artists visit twice weekly during the school year, has been a marked success.
And the formation of Arts Partners for Learning – a group that formed last year to foster and strengthen existing arts education programs and to spread the arts education gospel across Western New York – has been successful as well. It is also overseeing a project called Grant Street Global Voices, a community mural project funded by the National Endowment for the Arts that involves Buffalo State College, Buffalo Public Schools and Grant Street residents and businesses.
Next year, Young Audiences will launch a mini-grant program in which schools can apply to host programs created by Arts Partners for Learning members and a new partnership with the Buffalo Arts and Technology Center. The organization, volunteer-run for most of its 50 years, now has six staffers, a healthy board and a budget that expands by the year.
And as for the next 50 years?
"We want to expand the number of children who are having short-term experiences, we want to expand the number of children who are having long-term experiences and we want to create programming where we're working with young people for multiple years and having a major impact on their ability to be successful in the world."

Those are among the issues facing a judge who'll decide as early as Nov. 20 who will raise the 14-year-old Modern Family star: her mother Chrisoula Workman or her 34-year-old sister Shanelle Gray.
The long-brewing family drama exploded at an Oct. 3 emergency guardianship hearing, where mother and daughter traded incendiary allegations, according to a newly released court transcript that contains previously unreported claims.
Among them, an attorney for Gray alleged that Ariel had come close to being fired from the ABC comedy several times "because of the mother's harassment and interference."
Troubles on the Set?"She has been a terror on the set," lawyer Michael Kretzmer told Los Angeles Superior Court judge Michael Levanas. "The producers and others there have expressed grave concern."
He said he had "detailed horror stories" from cast members.
"They're having to sneak this child food because the mother deprives the child of food," Kretzmer claimed, according to the transcript, adding that the allegations were immediately reported to the county's Department of Children and Family Services.
He then held up his iPhone to the judge, showing a photo of Winter.
"The child looks 10 years older than her sister and is dressed up to show off her breasts and otherwise," Kretzmer said. "And the mother does not let the child out of the home without being dressed in a particular way, which is highly inappropriate for a child of this age."
He added, "The child is, apparently, slapped, hit, pushed – not so as to leave marks. Mother is smart enough not to do that," according to the transcript.

The Mother RespondsWhen she joined the hearing later that day, Workman told the judge she's a great mom and that Ariel manufactured the abuse allegations after Workman snuffed Ariel's relationship with an older teenager, Cameron Palatas, an actor on the Disney Channel show A.N.T. Farm.
"I caught my daughter with her boyfriend in bed. She's 14 – he's 18. And I threw him out, and I broke them up," she said. "And ever since I did that, I've paid. And, you know, I had to do it."
Workman added that during the five months that Ariel and Palatas had been dating, there'd been "other things which I told them they can't do."
According to several sources, after the hearing, Workman filed a police complaint with the Los Angeles County Sheriff's Department alleging that Palatas made inappropriate sexual contact with Ariel.
Palatas could not be reached for comment. But his mother tells PEOPLE the allegation is unfounded and that the case was closed. An attorney for Workman, however, says the case is still active. The Sheriff's Department declined to comment because the case involves a minor.
Workman also testified that it was easy for her daughter to make the abuse claims because "she can cry at the drop of a hat … you can watch her movies and see it."
She insisted that the court side with her, interjecting "I'm an amazing mother" and "I'm the one who gave birth." She referred to Kretzmer as a "moron," then apologized, according to the transcript.
No Comment from Modern FamilyWorkman could not be reached Wednesday to respond specifically to allegations of her misbehaving on the Modern Family set. Earlier she gave a blanket denial to PEOPLE of the allegations that she abused or sexualized her daughter.
Cast and producers of Modern Family, as well as ABC reps, have all declined to comment, although show creator Steve Levitan has frequently commended all the child actors for their professionalism and talent, saying they've been integral to the success of the show.
An assistant on Ariel's 2011 movie The Chaperone described mother and daughter as having similar personalities, which could often be prickly. "They were both difficult, but it was definitely more her mother," the assistant tells PEOPLE.
At the emergency hearing, Gray alleged that the abuse didn't start with Ariel. She testified that her mother physically abused her when she was Ariel's age, which led to her living with other family members for three years.
Gray held out hope that her mother could "get help" and return to being a mom. "I would love for my mother and my sister to be able to work out their differences," she told the judge. "This can be better."
The judge took the allegations against Workman seriously enough to give Gray temporary guardianship of Ariel and issue a temporary restraining order against Workman. At the next hearing, he could extend the guardianship or reunite mother and daughter.

Bad Dog was founded in 2006 through a collaboration of Jim Hagaman and Ron Tiefenbacher performing Christian music. As time went on, Jim and Ron found that their voices and instrumental styles were very complimentary and decided to expand the scope to include an entire band. Soon they realized that they needed to go back to their roots in popular music in order to satisfy their musical yearnings.
The band members have changed from time to time but their passion for music has only grown. With each new member's sharing of musical interests and ideas the band's music has evolved, offering 4 separate lead vocalists and 4 part harmonies while covering music of the 60's through today.

Undergraduate programs in the Bill and Vieve Gore School of Business are distinct in balancing solid theoretical preparation with practical application. Students are given broad business preparation with contextual applications to prepare them for general business decision making.
In all business majors, undergraduate students distinguish themselves by demonstrating ability to:
Students further distinguish themselves by mastering the following professional skill areas in addition to functional areas:
Students completing business programs use these skills throughout the programs and across the curriculum to develop literacy and mastery of the skills. All students also complete practical experiences, in either internships or practicum projects, to give context and experience to learning achieved in the classroom.
In most business majors, students can elect to complete Bachelor of Science (B.S.) or Bachelor of Arts (B.A.) programs. The B.S. programs are designed to give students deeper specialization within the major area, while B.A. programs are designed to give broader preparation in both the program area and in other areas depending on the student's background, preferences, and interests. Students completing the B.A. option are required to complete either a declared academic minor other than the Business minor, or twelve credit hours of foreign language.
Students should discuss B.S. and B.A. options with their academic advisor to determine which better meets their career goals.
Students in all business majors (with the exception of flight operations and some economics programs) complete a common undergraduate core designed to develop skill in all functional areas of business.
There are two components to the common undergraduate core: the lower-division requirements, and the upper-division requirements. Since many of the lower-division core requirements are prerequisites for upper-division major requirements, students should work to complete lower-division courses early in their programs. Upper-division core requirements should be taken when prerequisites are met. Refer to course descriptions to determine prerequisites.
Students should try to complete as many core business requirements as possible in their LE course selections. Those courses that meet LE requirements are annotated below:
|Business Core Requirements
|Credit Hours
|Lower Division Business Courses
|ACCT 213 Accounting Principles
ECON 253 Elementary Macroeconomics (LE)*
ECON 263 Elementary Microeconomics
IRM 200 Principles of Information Resource Management***
MATH 141 College Algebra (LE)**
MATH 150 Elementary Statistics (LE)**
MGMT 230 Business Quantitative Methods***
PHIL 206 Introduction to Ethics (LE)*
|Upper Division Business Courses
| FINC 300 Business Finance
MGMT 305 Principles of Management
MGMT 325 Business and Employment Law
MGMT 475 Strategy in Global Management****
MKTG 300 Principles of Marketing
*Students taking these courses as part of LE can double count these courses.
**Only one of MATH 141 and MATH 150 will count toward LE, but both are required. Students may be required to take both, based on math placement exams.
***IRM 200 and MGMT 230 may be taken in the same semester as co-requisites.
****In certain majors, Senior Seminar may substitute for MGMT 475.

EAST LIVERPOOL - Consol Energy is increasing its presence at the Columbiana County Port Authority's industrial park in Leetonia.
The Port Authority board this week agreed to lease an additional 2,610-square-feet to CNX Gas Co., Consol Energy's natural gas division, bringing the total to 12,610 square feet. The annual lease payments will now total $252,199, with the amended agreement to take effect Jan. 1.
The board agreed in March to begin leasing office space at the Port Authority's Leetonia World Trade Park to CNX as part of the company's efforts to increase its involvement in Ohio's oil shale gas boom currently under way. CNX plans to work from the Leetonia site as the company expands drilling operations in northeast Ohio.
While Consol is the largest domestic producer of underground-mined coal, the company is also the leading natural gas producer in the eastern United States. Consol has the mineral rights to more than 200,000 acres in Ohio.
In related news, the board voted 5-0 to spend $99,500 to repair the exterior of the building occupied by CNX, which was constructed less than 10 years, by covering it with commercial paneling.
The outside of the building was covered with Dryvit, an insulated exterior wall material commonly referred to synthetic stucco. Port Authority CEO Tracy Drake said they discovered the Dryvit coating should have been thicker, which was their fault and not the contractors, and has begun to deteriorate and crack in sections.
"We're afraid it wasn't standing up to the weather as it should," he said.
Decerbo Construction of Canfield was hired to perform the work.

WILLIAMSBURG - On the stat sheet, John Leri's one reception for seven yards doesn't look like much, but it's what he did after the catch that helped propel Juniata Valley to victory Friday night.
Leri's perfect execution of a hook-and-lateral pitch to Brett Grissinger on the opening possession of the second half went for a 55-yard touchdown and helped turn back an upset-minded Williamsburg team, 28-6, on homecoming at War Memorial Field.
Up to that point, Williamsburg had held the explosive Grissinger to just 13 yards. The senior back ripped off a 58-yard touchdown run through the heart of the Williamsburg defense in the fourth quarter to seal the win.
Juniata Valley improved to 5-1, 3-0 in the Inter-County Conference Silver Division. Williamsburg fell to 1-5, 0-3 in ICC Silver play.
Grissinger finished with 102 yards rushing and another 58 receiving.
"We knew coming in that Grissinger and [Jesse] Claar are their two big weapons. They've run well all season," Williamsburg coach Bob Hearn said. "Our kids did a good job containing them, but you're not going to stop them all the time."
Claar left the game with a knee injury early in the second quarter and did not return.
Juniata Valley entered the game as the top scoring offense in the area, averaging more than 43 points a game. The Hornets struggled to move the ball at times, which had as much to do with a lack of execution as it did Williamsburg's defense, Smith said.
"We weren't blocking well at all. It was terrible as a matter of fact," Smith said. "I understand there are going to be games like this, and Williamsburg always plays us tough, but we need to play more consistently."
On defense, the Hornets continued their ball-hawking ways, forcing multiple turnovers for the seventh straight regular-season game.
"The defense did a real nice job on their receivers, and we were able to get a couple interceptions," Smith said.
Devin Low's interception and subsequent return set up the first score of the game. The senior linebacker picked off an Austin McMonagle pass and rumbled 38 yards to the Williamsburg 33. A horse collar penalty at the end of the run gave Juniata Valley a first down at the Blue Pirates' 18.
Four plays later, Claar scored on a 4-yard run to put Valley up, 7-0. After Gordan Gable's 2-yard touchdown run gave the Hornets a 14-0 lead, Williamsburg scored right before halftime to pull within one score.
Austin McMonagle found Jed Dishong open in the corner of the end zone for a 7-yard touchdown with 16 seconds left on the clock.
"The game was closer than the final score. Our kids fought hard. I'm proud of the way they played," Hearn said.
Notes: Madelyn Kajacic was named homecoming queen before the game, and lineman Sean McCauley was homecoming king. He was injured, though, and did not play. ... Jed Dishong led Williamsburg with 111 yards rushing on 15 carries.

New Drug Approved for Blood Disorder Also Demonstrates Positive Results in Myeloma Clinical Trials
North Hollywood, CA, December 28, 2005 -- The International Myeloma Foundation supporting research and providing education, advocacy and support for myeloma patients, families, researchers and physicians - today said it anticipates rapid review of Revlimid (lenalidomide) for patients with myeloma, also called multiple myeloma, a cancer of bone marrow cells that causes an estimated 60,000 deaths each year. Revlimid from the Celgene Corporation was just approved by the Food and Drug Administration to treat certain patients with a malignant blood condition called MDS. However, the Foundation noted that in phase III clinical studies Revlimid has also demonstrated efficacy in myeloma patients, including those who have relapsed following other treatments.
"Revlimid showed outstanding results* in a recent trial involving patients who have exhausted all other treatment options," said Susie Novis, president of the International Myeloma Foundation. "We are available to support rapid review of Revlimid for myeloma, and we are working on behalf of patients to help with pre-approval access to the drug for those who may desperately need it now."
Revlimid is an anti-cancer drug that can be taken by mouth. Other newer drugs used to treat myeloma include Velcade from Millennium Pharmaceuticals and Thalomid also from Celgene.
"Revlimid will be a much needed addition to our potent but small arsenal for use in myeloma, especially for patients who no longer respond to available treatments or who cannot tolerate the side effects of existing drugs," said Brian G. M. Durie, M.D., chairman of the board of the International Myeloma Foundation. "My own clinical experience has already shown that the addition of Revlimid as a treatment option in certain specific cases allows us to significantly extend lives and move myeloma closer to becoming a chronic disease, where patients can pursue active lives while keeping their symptoms under control."
"What I read about myeloma indicated that I might have only three to five years to live, but here I am alive and feeling good a full seven years after my initial diagnosis with multiple myeloma," said Allan Bailey of Houston, Texas, who was first diagnosed with a precursor of multiple myeloma (MGUS) in 1989 and with cancer in 1998. "For the past two years I¹ve been on Revlimid, and based on my own experience, I would like to see its potential extended to all patients who would benefit from new therapies.
Myeloma is a potentially fatal bone marrow cancer that affects production of red cells, white cells and stem cells, and afflicts an estimated 250,000 people worldwide. Symptoms included fatigue and weakness, bone damage, kidney damage and susceptibility to infection.
About the IMF
The International Myeloma Foundation is the oldest and largest myeloma organization reaching more than 125,000 members in 113 countries worldwide. A 501 (c) 3 non-profit organization dedicated to improving the quality of life of myeloma patients and their families, the IMF focuses in four key areas: research, education, support, and advocacy. To date, the IMF has conducted more than 100 educational seminars worldwide, maintains a world-renowned hotline, and operates Bank on a Cure®, a unique gene bank to advance myeloma research. The IMF can be reached at (800) 452-CURE or www.myeloma.org.

featured students, faculty, and alumni videos
It's what the best teachers do: They lead by example inside and outside the classroom, helping students find their unique paths toward fulfilling legal careers.
At BC Law, students work closely with their professors in a collaborative environment to imagine new solutions to legal and societal problems. It's a "think tank" approach that builds community, fosters creativity, and encourages leadership while helping students discover their passion within the law.
The videos here contain stories of five unique faculty-student collaborations. They illustrate the foundational strengths of the BC Law experience: inspired teaching and mentoring; an engaged and diverse community; the pursuit of justice; a global perspective on the law; and a focus on experiential learning. The common thread that binds these stories is the relationship between professor and student, mentor and mentee. Our professors believe that becoming a great lawyer is about more than making partner or earning a big paycheck. It's about finding your place in the legal profession—and the satisfaction that comes with helping to build a more just society.

The following are the highlights and lowlights from the Steelers' 24-10 victory over the Cleveland Browns on Sunday at Heinz Field in Pittsburgh:
Play of the game: With 6 minutes, 40 seconds remaining in the game, Steelers cornerback Cortez Allen stripped Cleveland receiver Travis Benjamin of the ball after a 13-yard reception and recovered the ball himself, advancing it 21 yards to the Cleveland 27-yard line. It set up the game-clinching touchdown.

Defensive player of the game: Allen had eight tackles, forced two fumbles and recovered one.
Most telling statistic: The Browns turned the ball over four times to Pittsburgh's none.
Hidden statistic: The Browns have swept the season series from the Steelers only three times since 1970 - 1986, '87 and '88.
Best pass: Roethlisberger moved out of the pocket and connected with Antonio Brown for a 9-yard touchdown pass while on the run in the third quarter.

Dropped pass: Pittsburgh running back Jonathan Dwyer failed to grab a pass at the 1-yard line in the third quarter. Roethlisberger then hit Brown for a touchdown on the next play.
Best block: Steelers receiver Jerricho Cotchery pushed Trevin Wade nearly 10 yards downfield to help Emmanuel Sanders gain 12 yards on a third-quarter bubble screen.

Worst kick: Pittsburgh's Drew Butler punted just 31 yards from his own 16 in the first quarter.
Best return: None worth noting.
Costliest penalty: A holding call against Pittsburgh's Doug Legursky wiped out a 43-yard pass from Roethlisberger to Brown in the first quarter.
Best decision: The Browns ran a fake punt in the third quarter - Ray Ventrone took a direct snap and raced 35 yards on fourth-and-5.
Worst decision: An end-round to Brown on second-and-10 from the Steelers' own 17-yard line never had a chance. Cleveland linebacker Craig Robertson dropped Brown for a 13-yard loss.
Best effort: The 51,831 fans who braved the cold weather to watch a game with little meaning.
Unsung hero: Clark finished with nine tackles. Heath Miller was voted the team MVP this season, but Clark might have been the better choice.
