On Sunday, May 21, 2006, CBS correspondent Mike Wallace will make his last scheduled appearance on the news television show 60 Minutes, broadcast on CBS television stations at 7:00 ET/PT (Check local listings).
The show will highlight many parts of Wallace's career, but particularly poignant will be a frank discussion with his colleague Morley Safer about his struggle with depression -- including for the very first time, his attempted suicide.
Wallace has devoted himself to ending the stigma of mental illness and encouraging people to get help when they need it. This broadcast will continue to advance that public education. NAMI thanks him.

Lenore Skomal: Good cause draws caustic response
'Oh, so you're a cause person."
The derision in her voice palpable, she added a visual to her snide comment and sneered at me as she flipped the clipboard back on the table. Bewildered, I couldn't help but be taken aback by her snarky tone. I didn't view myself as a stereotype.
Just this side of 22, I stood at the feeble folding table on the cold, cheap linoleum floor of the busy train station, asking passers-by to sign a petition encouraging lawmakers to add some real teeth to existing child pornography laws. Not my idea of a good time on an early January morning before work -- but necessary in my mind.
Clearly this woman made an assumption about me and manipulated the phrase "cause person" to sound not just bad, but cheap. Though confused back then, I have since learned a thing or two about judgmental people. Scratch the surface hard, and you always find raw insecurity.
After all, she'd wrapped herself in a silky full-length fur coat, courtesy of the generous, selfless donation of 55 or so unsuspecting minks. Regardless of my feelings at the time about fur, would that have given me the right to assume she personally mass murdered innocent critters to make herself an article of clothing, or that she was a mink hater? No, that would have been ridiculous.
I suspect she believed the petition in my hand was just the tip of the iceberg. Heck, I might've had another clipboard with a PETA petition stuffed inside my down parka or been packing a bottle of bleach to squirt all over her pricey coat. You know us cause people.
Well, that was a long, long time ago. Despite my efforts to stand up for a cause, tragic to say, children continue to be exploited and in much larger numbers than then. The difference is that I no longer stand in chilly train stations to back up my personal beliefs.
But I admire those who do, including my son. Passionate and opinionated, he can afford to be. He's still in college, and that's what you're supposed to do. So when he overslept and missed the bus to Washington for a recent protest, he was depressed because his voice wasn't part of the collective whole. And that meant something to him.
I consoled him, saying there would be more opportunities, because the one certainty in life is injustice, and it exists for a variety of reasons, the least of which is to keep us cause people busy.

SANBORN – Emergency drills have been conducted this week in each of the school buildings of the Niagara Wheatfield School District.
Interim School Superintendent James Knowles told the School Board on Wednesday that each of the buildings ran through their emergency procedures in the wake of the shooting tragedy in Newtown, Conn. Although such drills are regularly held throughout the year, he said district officials agreed to take the preventive measure following the event last week. He reported that the drills at all the schools were reviewed by members of the State Police, and board President Steve Sabo commended the staff for its handling of the reaction here in the aftermath of the tragedy. He told parents school shootings are "thankfully rare" and they should be assured that "your children are safe" at school.

A 25-year-old homeless man, found sleeping in his car at the University at Buffalo's South Campus, was charged with robbing a woman last week, university police reported.
The robbery occurred at about 6 a.m. last Wednesday, as the woman was walking along Bailey Avenue on her way to work.
Police said a man approached her and, claiming he had a knife, threatened to kill her if she didn't turn over her purse. He then fled toward Goodyear Road, where his car was parked, and drove toward Hayes Road.
Jonathan A. Huitt was arrested the next day, after he was found sleeping in his car with a 15-year-old girl who had been reported missing. Neither had any connection to the university, campus police said.
Huitt was charged with robbery and criminal possession of a weapon, as well as acting in a manner injurious to a child under age 17.

I am saddened and frustrated that Blair County commissioners are continuing on a path to sell Valley View Home.
Valley View is not only one of the highest rated homes in the county, but a vital asset to our community.
If sold, we lose an important resource that provides the highest quality care available to our most vulnerable citizens, regardless of their income, and also provides the good jobs Blair County so desperately needs.
The home also generates nearly $19 million a year in revenue for the county and is funded primarily by the state and federal government.
Where else could we find a resource that costs us so little, but gives us so much?
When Cambria and Lackawanna counties sold their county homes, quality care decreased, jobs were lost, and wages were cut. Why would we want that same future here?
Don't our seniors, who helped build our towns, raise our children and protect our nation, deserve the best care possible? Doesn't Blair County deserve better than low-paying jobs that hurt our economy?
If the home is sold, we can never go back, and this resource is lost forever. County commissioners need to listen to the residents of Valley View and the residents of Blair County. This sale is not what we want, and we urge them to hold on to this gem of our community.

Some tips for troubleshooting packages on your system or Ouch! the Pain!
When something is working, it seems to make sense to you. For example, we all know that a car burns gas, and uses the energy to run a motor that turns the wheels to make it go. Gas--> motor--> wheels--> Go! It seems simple. The same is true of an operating system. You turn it on, it boots up, some text goes across the screen, then the windows pop up and you're ready to go. Boot--> text--> windows--> Go! Its easy, until something breaks. You never really understand how complicated something is until it breaks.

Tiger Woods in a green jacket once felt like an annual celebration of spring, as regular as the azaleas bursting with color at Augusta National.
Now it's more like a fading memory.
It has been eight years since Woods rolled in a 15-foot birdie putt to win the Masters in a playoff for his fourth green jacket. He appeared to be well on his way to living up to the audacious prediction made by Jack Nicklaus, who played a practice round at Augusta with Woods — then a 19-year-old amateur — and Arnold Palmer. Nicklaus came away so impressed that he considered his six Masters and the four won by Palmer and said, "This kid should win more than that."
But the major Woods was supposed to dominate has become the major he can't seem to win anymore.
"It's been one of those things where I've been close there so many times on that back nine on Sunday, and I just haven't won," Woods said. "I've been in the mix. Been on the periphery and played myself into the mix. I've been right there with just a few holes to go, and it just hasn't happened. Hopefully, this year it will be a different story."
This might be his best chance to end the drought — not only at the Masters, but in the majors. His last victory in one was the 2008 U.S. Open.
Woods is fully healthy for the first time in years. He appears happy after a scandal that ruined his marriage and his image, announcing a few weeks ago that he's dating Olympic ski champion Lindsey Vonn. He is winning again at an alarming rate — six out of his last 20 on the PGA Tour, including consecutive wins heading into the Masters. And he is back to No. 1 in the world.
Also back is his swagger.
"Everyone is waiting for the first major. I don't know why they're waiting for that," Hunter Mahan said. "I think he's done enough this year to realize that he's still really good and he's still better than everyone else. He set the bar so high, I don't know what is going to make everyone go, 'He's back to that time.'
"It seems hard to be intimidating in golf," Mahan said. "But I think he's the closest thing to it."
Now all Woods needs is another green jacket.
He has only worn the jacket for the Champions Dinner since last winning in 2005, and as defending champion at the trophy presentation a year later. Woods had six three-putts in 2006, twice missing eagle chances inside 15 feet on the back Sunday when he finished three shots behind Phil Mickelson. Those close to Woods suspected he was simply trying too hard, knowing it would be the last time his father watched the Masters. Earl Woods died a month later.
"Just really wanted to have him be a part of one last major championship victory and I didn't get it done," Woods said. "It hurt quite a bit. ... There's never been another defeat that has felt like that."
But the losses kept piling up. Woods couldn't catch Zach Johnson in 2007, hurt by a bogey-bogey finish in consecutive rounds. A cold putter stopped him in 2009, and in his last great chance in 2011, he was tied for the lead going to the back nine on Sunday and played it even par.
"Why has Tiger not won there in eight years? I don't know," Graeme McDowell said. I guess the style in which guys play nowadays, guys are long and aggressive, and it's not like Tiger back in '97 when he dominated people with his length. He was playing a completely different golf course from everyone else. I think there are so many guys now who can decimate a golf course like that when it's playing benign."
Mickelson is always a threat at Augusta — another win would give him as many Masters titles as Woods — but he is as unpredictable as ever.
Woods typically is the man to beat in the majors, and in that regard, nothing has changed.
It's everything else about this Masters that is so different.
There is rarely a dull moment in the first major of the year, a product of being played on the same course with its spring beauty and endless cheers at Amen Corner.
Consider the last four years alone:
— Angel Cabrera hit a shot off a tree, only for the ball to carom back into the fairway to keep his hopes alive in a playoff, which he won on the next hole in 2009.
— Mickelson appeared stymied behind two pine trees on the 13th hole, blasted a 6-iron off the pine needles and between the trees, a signature moment in his one-shot win.
— McIlroy had a four-shot lead going into the final round and hit a tee shot on the 10th hole that went behind the cabins, a spot he didn't even know was there. He made triple bogey and shot 80, and Charl Schwartzel became the first Masters champion to finish with four straight birdies.
— Louis Oosthuizen made the first albatross on the par-5 second hole — it took 21.5 seconds for the ball to leave his 4-iron in the fairway and drop into the cup for a 2 — only to lose the Masters in a playoff when Bubba Watson hit a shot that hooked 40 yards out of the trees and onto the 10th green.
What's next? Maybe the better question is who's next?
"I would trade all my tour wins for one green jacket. That's the place I want to win more than anywhere else," Snedeker said. "It encapsulates what I think is golf at its finest. Augusta is more than a golf tournament. It's an experience. The Kentucky Derby is more than a race. The Super Bowl is more than a football game. It's a social experience."
This is shaping up as a Masters for the ages, with Woods on the cusp of returning to his full greatness, and McIlroy needing a green jacket to give him the third leg of the career Grand Slam. And there has never been an age discrepancy as wide as this one among the newcomers — 46-year-old Thaworn Wiratchant of Thailand, and 14-year-old Guan Tianlang of China, who qualified by winning the Asia Pacific Amateur last fall.
"It's frightening to think that he was born after I won my first Masters," Woods said of the Chinese teen.
In so many ways, that '97 Masters seems like such a long time ago. And in some respects, so do the last couple of years.
Woods had only been married about six months when he last won the Masters in 2005. He was just starting to figure out the swing changes under his new coach, Hank Haney. If there were rivals, none were younger than him. The Nicklaus record seemed to be a matter of when, not if.
Based on the two months leading up to the Masters, Woods looks poised to reclaim his place as the best in golf, and get back on track in his pursuit of Nicklaus. His Sunday red shirt has looked brighter than ever this year. It might look even more intimidating under a green jacket.

AMD HD7770 Review
Introduction and Technical Specifications
Published: 15th February 2012 | Source: AMD | Price: £119.99 |
If you're a big fan of getting a lot of performance for a reasonable outlay, then the numbers 770 will get you all excited. After all the 4770 and 5770s were both cards with great levels of performance and yet came in at a very reasonable price-point.
Given that the top end cards in the 7 series are both more expensive than we're used to from AMD, and the rejig of their naming conventions with the 6 series, will the HD7770 live up to the lofty expectations of its predecessor?
Technical Specifications
One of the main points of the HD7770 is that it has all the AMD technologies built in to it. Rather than cutting down the featureset as well as the amount of Stream Processors and clockspeed, AMD have solely reduced the performance of the card, but left all the Eyefinity and rendering elements alone.
Most Recent Comments
The x770 cards from AMD have always been their most popular models, so does the HD7770 keep up this value and performance balance?
Continue ReadingQuote
If you look at the 6 series launch prices, the 7xxx equivalent should come in at the same and replace the lower model, maybe priced £10 or £20 higher than last gen but not £100+ more like we are seeing now.
6770 - £100 this is where the 7770 should be at around £100 new - actual price is ~£130
6850 - £150 this is where the 7850 should be at around £150 new - actual price will be ~£250+ (rumored)
6870 - £170 this is where the 7870 should be at £170 new - actual price will be ~£280+ (rumored)
6950 - £250 this is where the 7950 should be at around £250 new - actual price is £350+
6970 - £300 this is where the 7970 should be at around £350 new - actual price is £450+
If it wasn't for these cards being priced as high as they are, they would be much better because price to performance would be good, but at the moment it's not. I just hope when Nvidia launches Kepler the prices even out, for now i'll stick with my 6850.Quote
but beyond that i do think the first 1GHz card is a milestone for sure....
congrats AMDQuote
The 2gb version can be got for under £200.
So what I am trying to say is , for £50 quid more you can get alot more card if you are prepared to look around.
Thanks TTL for another honest review, I was suprised you gave it a Bronze award though , You are in a generous mood Quote
as for recommending the 6850 that's oki rite now but that choice wont always be around unless you want to go down the 2nd hand route,
Personally I like the card but more interested in the 7800 cardsQuote
Why? Well. It's a £110-odd card, and for that you get a very quiet and cool chip which performs QUITE well in Black OPS - I mean, it probably averaged about 30-40FPS and it was around the 90FPS mark for a considerable amount of time.
Admittedly you'd be better with a 6850 or a similar card, perhaps even an nVidia rival of the 6770. BUT really, this card would be perfect for a tight budget media/gaming build - medium settings with a decent frame rate in new-ish games will suffice for many on a low budget. I mean. You could probably build a decent system with one of these for about the £400-£500 range.
This card is definitely good for those looking for a card for a HTPC or Entertainment system - it's very quiet and cool; it's not over-priced TOO MUCH; it's small (therefore good for a Mini-ITX or MATX board) and it's very low on the power consumption front. Another bonus is the ability to CrossFire with another one, as there are one or two reviews floating around showing the performance in CrossFire to be quite good.
- Average value (a tad overpriced);
- Very quiet
- Cool;
- Small & Compact;
- 30-40FPS on quite a few games on MAX settings (sufficient for some)
- Slightly overpriced;
- Not adequate for Eyefinity gaming at high res and settings;
- Not as good performance as some 6770s (which are cheaper);
- HIS isn't very "pretty" or stylish.
Thanks for the review. Enjoyed it.Quote

HANOVERTON-The United football team may have started slow, but it is quickly rising.
After two disappointing losses, the Eagles made the 90-minute drive to Newcomerstown and got their first victory of the season, knocking out the Trojans 40-20.
The victory gave the Eagles a big shot in the arm, and it gave senior fullback-nose guard Zach Maze inspiration.
"It was very inspiring," Maze said. "It was the best feeling in the world."
Senior running back-outside linebacker Blaine Reiter was very happy to return home with the victory.
"It was something we had long sought after," Reiter said. "After that losing streak, it was great to come back to the community, the team the school, to everybody. It was a great feeling for all of us."
The Eagles entered the season with high hopes as they returned every starter. But after losing to Malvern and Salem in the opening two weeks, the Eagles had to pull together.
"It's like brotherhood, not just like teammates," Reiter said. "For most of these kids, we've been playing since the third grade. We've picked up a few on the way, but it's more like a family."
Maze also noticed the support from his teammates, most notably his senior counterparts.
"For games and practices, it's like family," Maze said. "We pick each other up, congratulate each other. There's not one bad thing about our team."
Their spirits are now up, but two weeks ago, they found themselves in a funk. First came the 34-28 home opener loss to Malvern. Then came another heartbreak after their 24-21 loss in Salem in the second game.
"We made a lot of little mistakes," Maze said. "In the long run, those add up to the big mistakes, and that can dictate the outcome of the game."
As the days progressed, the team pushed through practices and drills towards achieving the victory.
"We had some fine tuning and some polishing," Reiter said. "We needed to work on the little things."
Reiter said even teams with perfect records also have room for improvement.
"Any team, even if they think they're perfect, isn't perfect," Reiter said. "There's always something you can improve on each week."
"We need to finish the game", Maze said. "With as little mistakes we made in week three, I feel we could have come out and won both games."
United coach Mike Ward elaborated on a subject that Maze mentioned: finishing the game.
"In general, we've been telling the team we have to play a complete game," Ward said. "We have to finish the game. We still didn't play a complete game against Newcomerstown, but we still finished strong."
He makes no excuses about the two early losses.
"Our opponents had a lot to do with it," Ward said. "We played two very good opponents in Malvern and Salem, and in both games, we were a play or two away from winning both games."
With their first three weeks behind them, the Eagles focus on the future, including their upcoming Homecoming game and Inter-Tri County League opener against Southern Local on Friday. This will be the first game between the longtime rivals since 2005 when the Eagles pulled off a 27-12 victory.
These seniors may not have played a league game against the Indians, but they know the power the Indians have and look for that on Friday.
"We've scrimmaged them throughout the years," Maze said. "They're always a strong, very physical team. I feel that we will come out, play our very best, a have a good chance to win."
Reiter is also ready for the challenge.
"They're a physical team, they always have been," Reiter said. "We'll know who has the advantage at the end of the fourth quarter."

It's not only the patriots who love the "National" Piste in the Lötschental valley. Marked in red, the downhill run is classified as being somewhat difficult and starts at the chairlift top station at Gandegg. Located on the west side of the chairlift route, the descent follows a wide arc down to the base station at Stafel. Located on a sunny hillside with good views, the piste's high altitude makes it extremely snow-sure. The view is quite stunning – the mountain scenery is dominated by the majestic pyramid of the Bietschhorn.

The thermal spa of Yverdon-les-Bains combines the beneficial characteristics of the sulphur water and modern, in recent years completely renovated spa facilities with an attached 4-star hotel. Thanks to its sulphur- and magnesium-rich sources Yverdon-les-Bains has a long tradition as a thermal health spa and centre for healing, as the ruins of the Roman spa testify. Primeval menhirs and medieval castles bear further testimony to 6000 years of history.
The Grande Cariçaie nature preserve extends alongside the sparsely populated and developed southern border of the lake. The area is home to 1000 plant and 10 000 animal species. From May to October visitors have the opportunity to explore the natural wealth of the marshy lakeside at the Champ-Pittet nature preserve centre in the immediate vicinity of Yverdon-les-Bains. Trails across the marsh, forest and prairie landscape as well as a bird-watching centre allow visitors to have an intensive nature experience.
The cultural town of Yverdon-les-Bains offers a few unusual museums: with the «House from Elsewhere» Yverdon boasts the first science fiction museum in Europe. At the Savoy Castle, which dates from the 13th century and dominates the old town, an exhibition documents the history of the town and region. The same building also houses the Swiss Fashion Museum. At the castle and later also at the town hall – another site well worth seeing – the famous Swiss pedagogue Johann Heinrich Pestalozzi – influenced early on by Jean-Jacques Rousseau's ideas on education – from 1805 to 1825 ran an education institute for poor children which became world-famous.
- Thermal spa centre – sulphur water thermal spa with two outdoor and one indoor pool, and various additional facilities
- «House from Elsewhere» – the only science fiction museum in the world
- Swiss Fashion Museum – collection of 3000 rare and precious garments and accessories
- Pestalozzi Yverdon documentation and research centre – dedicated to the pedagogue Johann Heinrich Pestalozzi (1746-1827)
- Champ-Pittet – nature preserve centre in the Grande Cariçaie wetland

Calibration of a capillary pressure microinjection and its implementation within a micromanipulator
Kuncova, Johana
Permanent address of the item is: http://URN.fi/URN:NBN:fi:tty-200907102279

Publication type: Diplomityö
Issue date: 2002-12-11
University: Tampereen teknillinen korkeakoulu
Faculty: Automaatiotekniikan osasto
Department: Automaatio- ja säätötekniikan laitos
The thesis is part of SOLOMANDA (Manipulation, Detection and Analysis of Single Biological Cells) - a project supported by Tekes. The background of the project is the effort to replace use of laboratory animals and human cells of cancer origin by heterogeneous cell cultures. In order to achiee that, three groups were working on the joint-project. VTT Automation was responsible for visual servoing of cells and incubation, Medical School of Tampere University was studying cell models and supplying cells for testing and finally Automation and Control Institute of Tampere University of Technology was developing a novel micromanipulator (MANiPEN) and injection methods. This thesis concerns an improved calibration procedure for microinjectors and implementation of a microinjector with MANiPEN microinjector. Hence, the hesis firstly gives a brief summary of microinjection methods including mechanical, optical, electrical and chemical methods. Then a brief introduction into cellular structure is given. Capillary pressure microinjection (CPM) - as the selected technology - is then widely discussed in terms of history, typical components, application technique and classification, which brings new light into the field, since such an expensive overview of the technology has perhaps not been done yet.Later, the thesis concentrates on capillary pressure microinjection having an external pressure source. An overview of components is given, operation principle is explained and functions are described, followed by a survey of state-of-the-art devices. The survey is followed by stating the requirements on the device and a choice of a microinjector is done. Next reasons for injected volume variability are comprehensively discussed showing the complexity of the problem. Solutions are outlined and future a steps sketched. In the next part, calibration methods for calibration of microinjectors are introduced. In the experimental part, the calibration system and procedure are described and the results of implementation of the injector with the micromanipulator and the results of calibration are presented. Conclusions are drawn in the last chapter and more importantly, future developments in the field of microinjection are recommended. /Kir10

Facebook helps injured dog find home
Woman adopts 2-year-old dog after seeing it on Facebook
An Orlando dog badly injured after being hit by a car and attacked by another dog has a new home and it's all thanks to social media.
Orange County Animal Services said 2-year-old Daisy was adopted Tuesday after Natalie Di Paolis spotted her picture on their Facebook page.
Officials said Daisy's story was seen by more than 2,000 people.
The pit bull mix was found on the road with a broken leg and multiple other injuries last month.
During the month of December, Orange County Animal Services is thanking Facebook fans by reducing cat and dog adoption fees by $20. The standard adoption fee for dogs is $55 and for cats is $40.
The deal will be available through Facebook for the entire month at www.facebook.com/orangecountyanimalservices.

Thursday, April 18, 2013
A Summerville woman committed suicide Tuesday by laying on railroad tracks between Cypress Street and Aulds Lane and waiting for a train.
Joyce Lillian Brook, 54 years old, was killed around 12:30 p.m.
She had been staying a few blocks away from the tracks in Brownsville, apparently with a woman who took her in "out of the goodness of her heart."
Neighbor Richard Elliott, Jr., said he often saw her around the neighborhood, reading and smoking cigarettes.
He and his wife would invite her in to meals, and he gave her a jacket last week when he saw her outside in the heavy rain.
She was apparently wearing the jacket when she died.
Elliott said she was from Pennsylvania, and he thought she had stayed for a time at the Palmetto House.
"She was a nice lady," he said.
Brook was apparently on and off the tracks throughout the morning. Summerville Police officers responded to a call about 9:40 a.m. about a woman on the tracks.
They met her a block away from the tracks, spoke to her and released her, Capt. Jon Rogers said.
Rogers didn't confirm whether it was the same woman.
An autopsy was planned for Wednesday.
Elliott said a Brownsville church planned a service for Brook this week.

After four consecutive years of winning the regional Lexus Eco Challenge, Hanahan Middle School students placed first in the national competition.
The grand prize for winning the nationals was $30,000. Of the winnings, $20,000 will be split among the team. The remaining $10,000 will go to the school and teacher adviser, Alexandra Davis.
The school has won first place among middle schools nationally for the past three years. This is its first grand-prize win.
The team collected plastic bottle caps for its project, Caps for a Cause. It will use the caps to make a bike rack, bench and picnic table for the school.
"The thing I really liked was their diversity. They did very serious work in terms of going to the Statehouse and speaking to their representatives. Plus, they did a lot of activities like the cap collection. They also had fun," said Lexus philanthropy manager and competition judge Nancy Hubbell.
"They put so much passion into it ... and they were successful in the process."
The goal was 50,000 caps, but they ended up with almost 70,000. They collected 20,000 in just the first two weeks.
The school partnered with the College of Charleston Office of Sustainability, Blackbaud, SPAWAR and other local businesses to reach their goal.
Team members include Lexis Davis, Tyler Futrell, Caroline Hall, Andrea Heyward, Kimberly Johnson, Madison Moeller, Kirsten Songer, Kaylee Stacey, Britney Tsui and Aaron VanMaanen.

Why do so many of you want Holland to horde prospects? After years of letting our prospects over-ripen in Grad Rapids, we literally have a glut of prospects. Where are any of these guys supposed to play? We could deal 5 of our prospects and never miss them. They barely have room to fit in Tatar and Nyquist - where are they going to put the other 10 guys that are in waiting? Make a mega-deal for Vanek/Stafford/Pominville. Give them are first two picks and 5 prospects. I don't care who ... Jurco, Jarnkrok, Sproul, Mursak, Tatar, Nyqvist, Sheehan, Oullet, the list goes on and on. They're not accomplishing anything if they're gonna be stuck in GR for the next 3 years.
How about 2 firsts and a second for player X ...sounds very familar with one of the worst trades ever ? :-)
Want examples how this strategy would turn out? Look no further than the old Mapleleafs or Calgary Flames.

The Bishop Guilfoyle Catholic High School girls basketball team lacks a traditional tall rebounder.
Despite that, turning to a former first-team all-state player for help in the paint isn't a bad Plan B.
Halee Adams, who was first-team all state as a sophomore and third-team all state as a freshman, scored a team-high 14 points but made an even bigger impact with her 17 rebounds as Bishop Guilfoyle topped Laurel Highlands Athletic Conference foe Forest Hills, 51-44, at the Pleasant Valley Gymnasium Friday.
The win kept BG (10-1, 3-0) undefeated in the LHAC Section 1 and gave Forest Hills (10-3, 2-1) its first setback.
"The rebounds that she had tonight, the scoring that she provided and she came through with seven assists as well," Bishop Guilfoyle coach Mark Moschella said. "She just did a giant job for our basketball team tonight."
A year ago, the Lady Marauders fell to the Lady Rangers at home and as a result did not make it to the LHAC championship game.
"These games are so important," Adams said. "Me personally, I regret losing to Hollidaysburg [in BG's second game of the season]. As we go ahead, we have to beat schools like Forest Hills, Altoona and really stick it to everyone and play our game."
Adams scored 12 points and had 11 rebounds by halftime, helping the Lady Marauders erase an early 9-4 deficit and carry a 29-21 lead into the locker room.
"[Adams] is a great athlete and a great player," Forest Hills coach Carol Cecere said. "I thought BG came out and played us very well as they always do, but I was proud of our players and their effort."
Bishop Guilfoyle maintained its eight-point lead into the fourth quarter and even extended it to 12 with 6:12 remaining when Kayla Bates hit a long jumper. Moments later, however, the Lady Rangers crept back into the game.
Casey and Caitlyn Gallaher scored all of Forest Hills' points during a 10-2 run that trimmed BG's lead to 43-39.
The Lady Rangers, who got 11 rebounds from Amanda Meier, took advantage of several second-chance opportunities during the spurt.
"A lot of those rebounds happened because of their point guard [Casey] Gallaher," Moschella said. "She got our girls out of position to rebound, and I thought that we needed to do a better job protecting the paint and not give them those opportunities."
Casey Gallaher finished with a game-high 19 points, and Caitlyn joined her in double figures with 11.
The Lady Rangers pulled within three when Jill Scott hit a 3-pointer with 1:47 left, but Elyssa Ehredt got behind the Forest Hills defense for a layup with 1:07 to play. Scott made a layup on the other end to make it 47-44, but Adams and Bates, who finished with 11 points, made their free throws in the final minute to ice the game.
"This was a big section game in our league," Moschella said. "You have to be able to protect your home game and go on the road and win some tough ones. This is a good win for us tonight, but we need to get better in certain areas."
FOREST HILLS (44): Cai. Gallaher 5 0-1 11, Swanson 2 0-0 4, Meier 0 0-0 0, Cas. Gallaher 6 4-4 19, Zubek 2 1-1 5, Scott 2 0-0 5, Richards 0 0-0 0, Peretin 0 0-0 0. Totals - 17 5-6 44.
BISHOP GUILFOYLE (51): Ehredt 2 4-5 8, Boslet 3 0-0 6, H. Adams 4 5-5 14, Stessney 2 4-5 9, Bates 3 3-4 11, Miller 1 1-2 3, Craig 0 0-0 0. Totals - 15 17-21 51.
Forest Hills...............13 8 8 15 - 44

3-point goals: Forest Hills 5 (Cas. Gallaher 3, Cai. Gallaher, Scott); Bishop Guilfoyle 4 (Bates 2, Stessney, H. Adams).
Records: Forest Hills (10-3, 2-1 in LHAC Section 1); Bishop Guilfoyle (10-1, 3-0 in LHAC Section 1).

Research Capabilities
POET laboratories.
POET employs about 40 researchers who work to improve both the corn and cellulosic ethanol production processes as well as develop new products. In 2008 alone, POET spent $20 million on research, doubling its research staff and tripling the size of its lab in Sioux Falls.
Pilot plant.
POET's first ethanol plant now houses its pilot-scale research, with multiple buildings on 64,550 square feet in Scotland, S.D. There is both a pilot corn-based ethanol plant and a pilot cellulosic ethanol plant on site, which allows engineers and researchers the rare opportunity to see their work move from lab-scale, to pilot-scale, and on to commercial use.

Outdated law needs to be removed for good
January 18, 2013
Ever hear of a thing called a Prescriptive Easement? If not, you seem to be in the majority....
In his defense, I have a feeling a lot of people don't know that by "being nice" and letting a neighbor use a portion of your property for a certain length of time that you then lose all rights to it...
1 Agrees | 0 Disagrees | Report Abuse »
I hadn't heard of this specific law, but it sounds like "adverse possession" where someone openly uses your property for a specified timeframe essentially gains an easement to continue to do so (varies by state law).
It could have been previous owners who allowed the clock to tick up to 10 years, and not the letter writer who just continued to be nice.
Whoever is crossing his land to access his home might have trouble getting some kinds of mortgages (e.g., FHA) without a deeded easement, so that might be a bargaining chip.

Injuries are a part of every sport, especially in wrestling with its grueling, physical nature, and they can be hard to deal with for those experiencing them.
The cruelest injuries are season-ending ones that happen right before the postseason, and three talented area wrestlers will have to sit out as they watch their teammates compete this season.
Tyrone 182-pounder Jared Beckwith and 195-pounder D.J. Wunder will miss the District 6 Class AA Tournament this week, and Philipsburg-Osceola 106-pounder Chris Thompson will miss the Class AAA Tournament in two weeks.
Beckwith is still recovering from the Jan. 24 automobile accident that injured his kidney, and he still hasn't been cleared. The seeding meeting is tonight, and the tournament begins Friday morning. His workout partner, Wunder, has come down with impetigo, or infantigo as it also called, a skin disease that's caused him to miss last Tuesday's Penns Valley match and the Juniata Valley Tournament.
Thompson suffered a meniscus tear in his knee joint last Tuesday in the Clearfield dual meet, and he had surgery on Thursday to repair the injury.
Beckwith, a returning state qualifier who was 15-2, and Thompson, who was 19-3, including the injury default at Clearfield, are juniors, so they can return next season. But Wunder (21-4) is a senior, so his high school career is done. When I talked to him a couple weeks ago for a story, he seemed like a genuinely nice kid, and I was hoping he'd have postseason success.
"Losing both is a blow to the team as a whole," Tyrone coach Blair Packer said. "It's something that couldn't be helped. This was D.J.'s last hurrah, and he's not going to be able to do it. I know Jared's goal is to place in states. He's able to come back next year, but it's not going to happen for D.J.
"I'm constantly reminding kids that there are no guarantees in life. These are just two situations among all the situations that kids are going to experience in their lives. I've had kids get the flu at the wrong time of the year. Other kids across the state get injured. It's a life experience."
P-O coach Tim McCamley says Thompson will probably have to rehab the knee for about four months, and he will be back next season, but the injury is a stunner.
"You feel for the guy because he's put so much time and effort in for not only in the last few months, but also in the last couple years," McCamley said. "It's a pretty big blow to take. It's part of the game, but it's something you don't want to talk about.
"The only saving grace is he's not a senior. Hopefully, he can come back bigger, better and hungrier than ever. They expect him to get back at it after rehab."
P-O has been hit hard with injuries the last half of the season - it appears that senior 145-pounder Justin Millard (hyperextended elbow) will miss districts - and will have a vastly different lineup for tonight's match at Northern Bedford.
"All of our injuries have happened during matches and not practice," McCamley said.
Some wrestlers across the district and the state will wrap up or brace the injury they have and wrestle, but these ones are different.
"Sometimes kids wrestle with pain, but there are extenuating circumstances with Jared and D.J.," Packer said. "Ten years from now, I can say I can live without Jared wrestling in districts."

MARTINSBURG - Around 100 people gathered in downtown Martinsburg Saturday afternoon for a rally in support of the Second Amendment, which they feel has been under attack since a shooting in Connecticut that left 20 children and six children dead.
Art Thomm, vice president of the West Virginia Citizens Defense League, said lawmakers went on "immediate defense" after the shooting.
"(They) started calling for restrictions and the outright ban of certain firearms that, in reality, are not causing a problem," Thomm said.

Spectators wave flags and hold signs Saturday afternoon in support of the Second Amendment, which they feel is under attack. The gun rights rally was hosted by the West Virginia Civil Defense League in downtown Martinsburg.
Art Thomm, vice president of the West Virginia Citizens Defense League, gives remarks at a Second Amendment rights rally in downtown Martinsburg.
Thomm criticized Sen. Joe Manchin's comments on laying all options on the table when it comes to gun violence in the United States. Several attendees of the rally said they feel Manchin no longer supports their rights because of those comments.
"He is not supporting us," said Keith Morgan, president of the WVCDL. "He flat out told me he supports a gun ban along with, I want to be fair to him, other measures."
Morgan said he met with West Virginia's junior senator early last week.
Morgan, in his statements to the crowd, expressed is disapproval for "anti-gun laws ... that regulate a tool instead of evil."
Jeff Hamlin, of Hedgesville, said he voted for Manchin last November, but said he is frustrated with what he feels is the senator's support of reactionary legislation.
"He is a man that won his seat basically on an NRA-sponsored video, proclaiming his support and pledging that no second amendment rights would be infringed," Hamlin said. "And now he's flipflopped on us."
"We're not going to sit idly by while (lawmakers are) making massive sweeping legislation for a majority that does not agree with what they're trying to propose," he said.
Mike Shanaberger, of Boonsboro, Md., said he felt encouraged by the large turnout.
He said legislation coming from Washington is the biggest threat to second amendment rights.
"People deciding what guns you may or may not have is not any of their business," Shanaberger said.
While Manchin was not popular at the rally, his supporters were gathered just a few blocks away. Moms for Manchin organized what they called a last-minute "peaceful presence" upon learning about the rally.
Glenn Goulet, a Manchin supporter who carries a weapon, said he does not think anyone's weapons are being taken away.
"They feel that that's wrong because now they're going to a seven-round clip," Goulet said. "You really don't need even seven rounds to take care of a problem even if you're assaulted."
Heather Marshall, president of the Women's Democratic Club of Berkeley County, said she organized Moms for Manchin in support of the senator and his stance on the open dialogue for gun control.
"We just need to be able to sit down together and ... come together with some really meaningful change that helps protect our kids and our community," Marshall said.
Donn Marshall, Heather Marshall's husband, said he is a gun owner and believes in the Second Amendment, but he also believes gun control advocates and gun owners should work together in finding solutions to gun violence.
"There are different approaches with how we deal with the future," he said. "One is to say no and only no and not go to the table. The other is to go to the table and educate the other side."
Heather Marshall said though she has been outspoken against Manchin regarding women's rights, she feels his approach to gun violence is responsible.
"When he does it right, he deserves our support," Marshall said.
Clai Lashley, a Shepherdstown resident who attended both events, said he sits on the fence of the current debate. He said there is not a question of which group supports the second amendment and which does not.
"The people at both rallies believe in the second amendment," Lashley said. "The question is how to have sensible ownership and responsible gun ownership."

Green crap is coming our way - so let's be prepared!
Oliver Tickell
11th May 2015As Cameron appoints his cabinet, we had better get prepared for the 'green crap' that's about to be unleashed on us, writes Oliver Tickell - the return of fox-hunting, badger-culling, road building and nuclear power, the arrival of GM food and crops, more cuts to wind and solar power and the underfunding of home insulation. more...
Greenpeace India faces closure in weeks

In Nepal's next big quake, hydropower dams threaten catastrophe
Michael Buckley
4th May 2015A spate of hydroelectric dam building in Nepal means that future earthquakes could send inland tsunamis flooding down the steep mountain valleys, writes Michael Buckley. Disaster was averted in last month's quake - a badly damaged dam was not yet filled. But despite the risks and the damage to river ecology, tourism and rural livelihoods, there's no sign of any policy shift. more...
Aerotropolis alert! Airport mega-projects driving environmental destruction worldwide
Rose Bridger
8th May 2015Governments and corporations are driving a global wave of ecologically disastrous airport-centered mega-projects each destroying as much of 100 sq.km of farmland and forests - sucking water, resources and economic activity from surrounding areas, excluding host communities and locking in high-carbon infrastructure for decades to come. more...
Indian government sanctions Greenpeace to send a menacing message
Praful Bidwai
23rd April 2015Prime Minister Modi's government has frozen the bank accounts of Greenpeace India, writes Praful Bidwai - provoking widespread protest from the environment and civil rights community.

The battle for the future of farming - why is the World Bank on the wrong side?
The Rules & the Oakland Institute
18th April 2015The World Bank exists to fight poverty. So why does it promote a profit-driven model of agriculture that enriches corporations at the expense of the small farmers who provide most of the world's food, creating poverty by stealing their land and water, depleting resources and undermining sustainable livelihoods? more...

Thembi Mutch

Tianjin, China: a village 'land grab' protest spells trouble for the Communist state
Samantha Hoffman & Jonathan Sullivan
11th April 2015Rising anger by China's dispossessed - those displaced from their homes, villages and farms to make way for ever-expanding cities and infrastructure - is posing an existential threat to the ruling regime, write Samantha Hoffman & Jonathan Sullivan.

World Bank's Conference on Land & Poverty is a cruel farce
Oliver Tickell
20th March 2015On Monday the World Bank's Conference on Land and Poverty begins in the US.

Ethiopia: Kwegu tribe starves, victims of dam and land grabs
Oliver Tickell
13th March 2015The Kwegu people of Ethiopia's Lower Omo Valley are facing starvation because of the loss of their land to a huge sugar plantation, the destruction of their forest and the damming of the Omo river - supported by a UK, EU and World Bank funded 'aid' program. more...
Agroecology can feed Africa - not agribusiness
Ian Fitzpatrick
10th March 2015Corporate interests have skewed the entire development agenda for agriculture in Africa, writes Ian Fitzpatrick. Instead of investing in sustainable, small scale farming along agroecological principles that raise production and support rural communities, governments - including the UK's - are backing destructive industrial farming and land grabs. more...
Land and seed laws under attack as Africa is groomed for corporate recolonization
GRAIN / AFSA / The Ecologist
12th February 2015Across Africa, laws are being rewritten to open farming up to an agribusiness invasion - displacing the millions of small cultivators that now feed the continent, and replacing them with a new model of profit-oriented agriculture using patented seeds and varieties. The agencies effecting the transformation are legion - but they are all marching to a single drum. more...

The other reason I joined UKIP - to save our nightingales!
Mark Reckless MP
1st January 2015When Tory MP Mark Reckless jumped ship to join UKIP last September, one of his reasons - missed by mainstream media - was his outrage at Medway Council's plan to build 5,000 houses on an internationally important sanctuary for nightingales, after ministers tipped the wink that they would 'green-light' the scheme. more...

COLUMBIANA - A Springfield Road man is concerned for his own safety every time he backs out of his driveway.
Jack Baker told City Council at its recent meeting he lives about three houses down from a posted traffic sign that allows a continuous right turn. "They fly around there, and I'm glad there are no kids right where I live," he said.
He requested the city post a regular stop sign on the road near the entrance to the park.
Police Chief Tim Gladis said this is the first time anyone has complained about the traffic sign, although the department frequently receives complaints about people speeding on Springfield Road.
He agreed a stop sign would be beneficial there.
Baker also requested a traffic signal be installed where Springfield Road meets state Route 14.
"It seems like for some reason everybody comes down Springfield Road to get to 14," he said, and suggested a traffic study in that area to see how many accidents occur there.
Gladis said because it is a state road the Ohio Department of Transportation would likely require a traffic study before a signal could be installed. He added funding for signals are usually only approved by ODOT for areas where fatalities have been reported.
"We have no fatalities If I were to recommend a traffic signal (it would be) on Park and 14, not Springfield and 14. Both of those are tough intersections," he said.
Mayor David Spatholt said the city could take care of the stop sign and will look into a traffic signal.
In other business, Council heard from Justin Anderson of Boy Scout Troop 40 who is going for his Eagle Scout badge.
The Eagle Scout is the highest rank in Boy Scouts and Anderson prepared a speech weighing the pros and cons of the new pipelines being laid in the county.
"As I'm sure you all have seen that in Columbiana County there have been pipelines moving themselves in and out of properties everywhere we look. It is good or bad? What are they doing to the surrounding environments? Are they harmful? And what are the benefits?" he said.
Pros are that the pipelines are mostly going in on farmlands and are benefiting the soil since the land is being moved for their installation. Also, jobs are created.
Cons are potential damage to the roads - which can be costly to repair - and the safety hazards that come with operating heavy machinery, he said.
Councilman Bryan Blakeman said Anderson's views were similar to his and likely that of the entire council.
"I think from a county standpoint and from a rural standpoint it is great for the county and the state. I think from a municipal standpoint we share the same concerns. I think as a whole for the county it will be a huge boon not only for landowners, but as you can see in town there are new stores popping up," he said, referring specifically to a new hotel in Salem.
Others on council nodded their heads in agreement but no one else commented.

To the editor:
In my letter published in The Sentinel on Feb. 24, 2011, I gave the history of the Jewish people and pointed out that history shows that the Jews are in their own land and that in my opinion, have every right to live safely on their own land.
Sadly, history also reveals that the Muslim nations will never accept a Jewish-governed nation anywhere in the Middle East.
What has secured Israel's earthly survival since statehood, in 1948, has been the unbending support, diplomatically, financially and militarily, by way of armaments, supplies and advisors, by the U.S. With the added benefit of the President Carter-brokered peace treaty with Egypt, and the disarray of the other Muslim nations, Israel's only day-to-day problems have been the constant border violations by any number of Muslim hate groups.
In my letter, written the day Libya's dictator was killed, and published in the Nov. 18, 2012, Sentinel, I lamented that since Mubarak was gone from Egypt, that country would no longer be pro-American, and would definitely be anti-Israel, and the Libya under Gaddafi was at least neutralized when it came to the U.S. and Israel, which won't be the case in the future.
I also opined that, by our actions, our government was laying the groundwork to eventually abandon Israel. Now that brings us to the present. As of this writing on Nov. 18, Israel is currently being attacked by rocket fire from the Gaza Strip, and already Egypt's President Morsi, is siding with the Hamas terrorists, while brokering for a cease fire.
While I don't believe the Muslim nations are yet united to the point that Israel will be attacked, as they were in 1948, I do believe, however, that time is relatively short until all hell breaks loose.
I was pleased to see that our president, in calling for a cease-fire, also stated that the citizens of Israel have every right to live safely in their own land, and the right to defend themselves from aggression. I hope our president's resolve will continue over the next four years, and when the time comes, and it will, we will be right by Israel's side.
Believe me, I would love to be wrong in believing that we will not support Israel at crunch time. Sadly, as I've stated before, Israel doesn't start these border clashes, but after they begin, it is always assumed and expected that Israel will need to give concessions to stop the aggression and have temporary peace until the next time.
In this particular case, both Israel and the U.S. seem to be counting on Egypt's President Morsi to convince Hamas to agree to a cease-fire and negotiations. The irony of all this is that Egypt is governed by the Muslim Brotherhood, and Hamas is their military arm.
This is akin to the U.S. being attacked by the Mexican army, and the Mexican president claiming to negotiate a cease-fire, and then for the U.S. to negotiate concessions with the Mexican army.
What I fear is that the Israelis will put up with all they can take, and will then overreact (overkill), or be accused of over reaction, which will give President Obama an excuse for withholding support from Israel, and invite an all-out attack by most of the Middle East on Israel.
When this happens, Israel will rely on the only true protector they've ever had, The Lord Thy God.

Our general interest e-newsletter keeps you up to date on a wide variety of health topics.
You know exercise is good for you, but do you know how good? From boosting your mood to improving your sex life, find out how exercise can improve your life.
Want to feel better, have more energy and perhaps even live longer? Look no further than exercise. The health benefits of regular exercise and physical activity are hard to ignore. And the benefits of exercise are yours for the taking, regardless of your age, sex or physical ability. Need more convincing to exercise? Check out these seven ways exercise can improve your life.
Exercise can help prevent excess weight gain or help maintain weight loss. When you engage in physical activity, you burn calories. The more intense the activity, the more calories you burn. You don't need to set aside large chunks of time for exercise to reap weight-loss benefits. If you can't do an actual workout, get more active throughout the day in simple ways — by taking the stairs instead of the elevator or revving up your household chores.
Worried about heart disease? Hoping to prevent high blood pressure? No matter what your current weight, being active boosts high-density lipoprotein (HDL), or "good," cholesterol and decreases unhealthy triglycerides. This one-two punch keeps your blood flowing smoothly, which decreases your risk of cardiovascular diseases. In fact, regular physical activity can help you prevent or manage a wide range of health problems and concerns, including stroke, metabolic syndrome, type 2 diabetes, depression, certain types of cancer, arthritis and falls.
Need an emotional lift? Or need to blow off some steam after a stressful day? A workout at the gym or a brisk 30-minute walk can help. Physical activity stimulates various brain chemicals that may leave you feeling happier and more relaxed. You may also feel better about your appearance and yourself when you exercise regularly, which can boost your confidence and improve your self-esteem.
Winded by grocery shopping or household chores? Regular physical activity can improve your muscle strength and boost your endurance. Exercise and physical activity deliver oxygen and nutrients to your tissues and help your cardiovascular system work more efficiently. And when your heart and lungs work more efficiently, you have more energy to go about your daily chores.

it means super bestest friends of all bestest friends. it means that these two people are better than you and their friendship pwns yours. your sbfoabf is the chapstick to your chapped lips and quite often are nose pickers. they are lovely people that although they fight, can still suck some major cock when they're together.
