Some very interesting research suggests race does not appear to play a role in draft position. Also at the same link, with capsule descriptions of papers from the Western Economic Association: Evidence that NBA stars play huge minutes right up until the All-Stars are announced, and then instantly cut back to prepare for the playoffs. Seems like making the All-Star team is a bigger deal than most would let on.
Your phone knows where you're going to be even if you don't. Not sure what this has to do with basketball.
Jose Calderon does something that ought to be in the Guinness Book. Holy cow. Tough trick. But is it real? Trey Kerby, unquestioned master of physics, says it's physically impossible.
What can Caron Butler do this year? Charlie Widdoes of ClipperBlog with insight: "If it occurred to you that Butler had a disproportionate amount of success early in games, you were right. We all know that Chris Paul starts games with the intent to get his teammates going, and Butler was often the beneficiary. He took 40 percent of his shots this past season in the first quarter, and converted 45 percent of them. Like many NBA starters, Butler typically took his rest during the 2nd quarter, but for the rest of the game, he shot only 38 percent from the floor. This became his thing. If Paul is the Clippers' closer and Blake Griffin is their middle-of-the-order power hitter, 32-year old Caron Butler established himself as their dependable, veteran starting pitcher."
Stat geek Andres Alvarez assesses ESPN's Western Conference summer predictions, and says the Mavericks do not belong in the top eight, while the Timberwolves are missing. "Losing Kidd hurts. Dirk has been wearing down. Chris Kaman was a terrible pickup. This team as constructed will not compete out west." He also says the West is "OKC and then everyone else."
All this hubbub over expensive basketball shoes reminds of some comedian talking about gay marriage. He said he was a little nervous about it, until he found out it was optional. You know what I mean? Some product out there you don't want? Cool. The cost of not getting it is zero, and life goes on.

The European Securities and Markets Authority (ESMA) recently published its EMIR consultation: "Contracts having a direct, substantial and foreseeable effect within the Union and non-evasion of provisions of EMIR" (ESMA/2013/892). The consultation gives market participants a first look at proposals containing the criteria for extending obligations under the European Markets and Infrastructure Regulation (EMIR) to derivatives trading entities outside of the European Union (EU).
EMIR introduces three sets of compliance obligations for all derivative counterparties:
Currently, EMIR rules apply to only derivative counterparties (both financial and non-financial entities which trade derivatives) established in the EU. But the EMIR primary legislation contains principles for extending certain obligations to derivative trading entities established outside the EU, when transactions have a "direct, substantial and foreseeable effect in the Union" or are conducted under arrangements designed to avoid EMIR rules.
ESMA proposes that transactions falling under the "direct, substantial and foreseeable" principle would be only those conducted by non-EU derivatives counterparties which are guaranteed by an EU regulated financial firm (over certain cumulative thresholds) or transactions conducted between EU branch offices of non-EU entities. Whilst the proposals are more narrow than expected it is important for derivative market participants outside of the EU to understand these proposals and consider whether they are likely to become subject to EMIR
Regarding anti-avoidance, ESMA proposes an approach which looks to the primary purpose of the transaction, not just its form, and provides a list of factors which may indicate avoidance. Both EU and non-EU derivative traders should consider their trading arrangements, and any indirect trading arrangements (where an EU counterparty retains a business or economic interest) in light of the anti-avoidance factors.
Our Regulatory Briefings track the EU's recent international discussions on extending EMIR rules outside of the EU and provide more details of ESMA's proposals.

Victor Conte is a fraud. Andre Ward and Donaire should not work with him.
I have no idea why boxing fans journalists who cover the sport..etc don't see the big deal that some of the biggest names in boxing have no problem working with one of the most infamous drug baron in the history of sport. I could name many other sports where this man would get shot down and is completely banned from, but boxing for whatever reason welcome this man with open arms and see no problem with P4P boxers getting help from Conte. That's insane.
Imagine Nadal Djokovic and Federer getting some new improved supplements and other stuff from Conte. It would've been a huge scandal and nobody would take them serious had that been the case. They would lose thier credibility, most likely lose their sponsors and the International Tennis Federation would advice them to get their s_hit together and stop working with him.
Conte loves the limelight and is an intelligent and charismatic person so it's easy to like him but you can't trust this man at all. As skilled as Floyd is in the ring Conte is just as skilled when it comes to create different types of supplements and designer steroids. He also knows exactly how to beat any drug test. For Conte it's like taking candy from a baby...Dude is a snake and no matter how much he tries to convince everybody that he's not a cheater anymore he can NOT be trusted. Everybody should be very suspicious when world class athletes feel the need to hire Victor Conte.
Apparently Nonito Donaitre is the first boxer to agree to random blood and urine testing 24 hours a day, 365 days a year by the Voluntary Anti-Doping Agency (VADA).
Every boxer should obviously do this. However It's kinda funny that the first boxer to agree is a Conte client. Reminds me of another Conte client - Marion Jones. While working with Conte she was always very vocal about stricter drug testing and she loved the fact that in Track and Field you could get tested any time any place during the whole year and cheaters should be BANNED FOR LIFE in her opinion. She even came out with a book called "Marion Jones & the Making of a Champion" where she talked about how clean she was and how much she hates drug cheats.
It's unfortunate that two of the biggest names in boxing Andre Ward and Nonito Donaitre work with this scumbag and nobody thinks it's weird. I hear people say "He's all about antidoping now" "it's good to have him in the sport". boxers should work with him and blablablabla. Now that's being naive as hell. Once again world class boxers should not be associated with him PERIOD.
Great boxers but you have to very suspicious when it comes to these two:

I also find it weird that Donaire agrees to Olympic style testing with VADA who Conté works for. Seriously, if he created the testing procedures you know he knows a way to beat them.

Conte did his time. He's been the single loudest voice in helping the Feds and illustrating how tests are beat. Furthermore he is one of the few that takes USADA and WADA to task on their BS.

And agree with what another poster said. Donaire having year round testing doesn't mean anything. I'm pretty sure Conte knows how to beat his own tests.

Victor Conte is not running VADA. Margaret Goodman is the person behind that organization. Conte gave Goodman some recommendations for testing but ultimately he is not a member of that organization.

It really doesn't look good. Obviously Conte is a bona fide expert when it comes to nutrition, but can they really find no other nutrition experts good enough to work with them?

"(ASU) Coaches said I'm versatile and they can use me in a lot of different ways playing the 1, 2, or 3," Kearney told DevilsDigest.com. "They also like my defense and shooting. They said if I get stronger and put on weight I could post players up and come off ball screens. They really think I can help the team."The 6-foot-5, 190-pound Kearney averaged nearly 17 minutes per game at Michigan State this season but left amidst coach Tom Izzo saying the sophomore from Detroit desired a larger role.
Kearney told the website he had not decided upon playing for Arizona State next January when he would become eligible or sitting out next season to preserve two years of eligibility.
After visiting Texas A&M, Kearney chose to take his talents to Tempe, Ariz. to play for the Pac-12 program that currently features a scoring point guard in freshman Jahii Carson.
"I wanted to visit Arizona State
because of the location and it has nice weather," Kearney told the website. "When I got there it was even better
than what I thought because it's a great university. Basketball team is
doing well now so it was definitely an interesting visit. Their facility
and atmosphere really surprised me.
"The relationship I have with the coaches is great, as well as the relationship with the players and that was big in my decision. Even though it's a business, they treated me like one of the guys.

After beating up on each other for more than a month, it might come as a relief to the four remaining girls basketball teams representing District 3-4A that the playoffs are finally here.
For two teams each from Amarillo and Canyon ISDs, the second season begins with a pair of Region I-4A bidistrict doubleheaders Tuesday night in Dimmitt and Plainview.
Wayland Baptist University in Plainview will host an AISD doubleheader, with 3-4A champion Palo Duro (23-7) facing Hereford (14-16) at 6 p.m., followed by Amarillo High (24-7) taking on Lubbock Monterey (16-15) at 7:30 p.m. Two CISD schools will go in a twinbill at Dimmitt High, with Randall (18-13) squaring off with Plainview (25-8) at 6 p.m. and Canyon (26-6) facing Frenship (17-14) at 7:30 p.m.
Few other districts can boast of sending as strong a contingent of teams to the postseason as 3-4A. Palo Duro (No. 10), Amarillo High (No. 12) and Canyon (No. 15) are all ranked in the Texas Association of Basketball Coaches poll.
And Palo Duro almost went through the district season undefeated. The Lady Dons dropped their regular season finale to Canyon, 49-44, to finish 9-1 in district, which PD coach A.J. Johnson hopes will be a motivating factor.
"I think with the loss it's going to help focus us a little bit more," Johnson said. "Having lost to Canyon I think is going to make us work a little harder. I feel like there's some things we still need to work on, but I still really like where we're at."
The game will be a showdown between two of the top scorers in the Texas Panhandle. Hereford senior Brianna Scott is averaging 25 points a game and PD's Sasha Watson is scoring 19.5 a game.
This will be the second meeting of the season between the two schools, who were previously in 3-4A together. Palo Duro routed Hereford, 83-32, on Dec. 19, but Scott was out due to injury.
This is the first time in nine years Hereford has been in the playoffs.
The Amarillo High-Monterey game is also a rematch of a game which an AISD team won in December, as AHS beat Monterey, 54-40. That's the type of game that prepared the Lady Sandies for district, where they earned a No. 2 seed.
"Honestly, finishing 8-2 in this league is nothing to be ashamed of," AHS coach Jeff Williams said. "I feel like we've come together as a team and have played our best basketball in district. (Monterey) is going to be a tough draw for us for sure but our team has shown that they can respond in these types of situations."
Of the four matchups involving 3-4A teams, the Randall-Plainview game will contain the most familiarity between opponents. The two teams have already met three times this season, with No. 21 Plainview having won twice.
In their first year under coach Brooke Walthall (a Canyon graduate), the Lady Raiders secured the fourth and final playoff spot.
"This was one of the goals for the girls and they've changed their mindset to get prepared for this game," Walthall said. "We know that if we win we get to play again. We've had our ups and downs but we've always worked hard and we're where we should be."
Walthall knows all about what it takes to succeed in the playoffs, having played for Joe Lombard at Canyon. For anyone following Canyon basketball, it's easy to take for granted that the Lady Eagles will be in the playoffs.
This year, though, they lost three district games by a total of 10 points for the first time in Lombard's career and enter the playoffs as a No. 3 seed. However, their victory over Palo Duro to end the regular season made a statement that the Lady Eagles haven't been grounded yet.
"I think the playoffs start and everybody's somewhat equal," Lombard said. "I thought we got some momentum for this game against Palo Duro and that gives us a boost. We're excited about entering the playoffs. We're close to where we want to be but we're not there yet."

Waldorf College continues the tradition of organ donation awareness on campus by hosting its annual 5K on Saturday, September 29. Revenues from the event will be donated to the Iowa Donor Network.
Director of Student Health Services Mary Mathiasen organized the event this year.
"Waldorf has seen both sides of organ donation," Mathiasen said. "We've seen people give life to others as well as the joy from a recipient of that gift. We'd like to continue that servant attitude by raising awareness and encouraging people in our community to become organ donors."
According to the Iowa Donor Registry, over 600 people are waiting for an organ donor in Iowa and over 100,000 in the United States.

|Here are some details about my project:
|Retro / Vintage, Traditional, Romantic
What materials did you use? Satin fabric, ribbon, vintage brooch, sewing machine with embroidery module, 100% polyester fiberfill stuffing
What are you most proud of? I used my mother-in-law's brooch for a decorative effect. My son never got to meet his grand mother. So, I am very happy this came up at just the right time. I was visiting one of my sister-in-laws and I told her what I was trying to make. She showed me some items she had from my mother-in-law, which fit perfectly for what I was doing. She gave me the brooch. I feel my mother-in-law will be with us in spirit celebrating his wedding. This item will be the "something old".
That is beautiful. And the brooch from his grandma was such a sweet touch.
That is beautiful!!

Beyoncé Knowles Exposes Her 'Bad-itude'
In case you've been asleep, the movie you just can't avoid hearing and reading about this week is Mike Myers's spy spoof "Austin Powers in Goldmember," which opens Friday. On Tuesday's "Today" show, Katie Couric even did her bit to hype the flick, in which she has a cameo, by showing off her role as a mannish prison guard, although her punch line reputedly ended up on the cutting room floor. Standing front and center in the movie, however, is Myers's costar, Beyoncé Knowles, 20, who by any measure is hard to avoid. "She's not remotely a diva," "Goldmember" producer John Lyons told Reuters. "When you know her, she's the last person in the world you'd say that about." In her debut movie performance, Knowles plays Foxxy Cleopatra, a character parodying Pam Grier and other blaxploitation heroines of the '70s. Lyons said Knowles was cast after he and director Jay Roach caught her performance in MTV's hip-hop version of the Bizet opera "Carmen." "She had bad-itude," Roach told the news service, adding, "The audience decides how to feel about Austin through the leading ladies. The jokes deliberately bring you to the edge of maximum discomfort – you're supposed to go, 'Ugh.' . . . But Foxxy is normal and cool, and she seems to like him, so that gives us permission to laugh." Glad to have her approval.

The Philadelphia Phillies called up two prospects from Triple-A this past week who turned in solid season debuts, although neither is considered a top 10 prospect.
Tyler Cloyd received a promotion over Adam Morgan to pitch in Roy Halladay's spot in the rotation, and took a no-decision after allowing two earned runs and two hits in 6.1 innings.
Following the game Cloyd was sent back to Triple-A, while Justin De Fratus was promoted. De Fratus struck out the lone batter he faced in Sunday's game, and wound up with the win after the Phillies scored two runs in the 10th inning.
But what about the players currently ranked as the Phillies' top 10 prospects according to Baseball America?
Has Darin Ruf started to heat up? How did Jesse Biddle bounce back from his rough outing last week? Did Ethan Martin improve his command in his two starts this past week?
Let's take a look at which players' stocks are up and which are down following Week 6.

Pučišća village is a nice port on NW Coast of Brač Island.
They take pride in their white stone of which lots of legendary buildings are made. An urban legend says that even the White House in Washington DC is built with this stone, but that is a fabrication.
If you visit by a boat Pučišća is a safe port. There are moorings with electricity and water and by the waterfront there is more than enough depth for sailboats.
The great thing about Pučišća is that it is not as crowded as some ports on Brač, and you can find a spot even in high season. We were there in July and we were almost alone on the beach.
There is a stonemason school that teach to cut stone by hand following the ancient Roman method.

You may feel responsible as you offer your support and assistance to others today. You might be helping loved ones with their obligations and chores, or providing guidance to coworkers, all of which might make you feel needed and dependable. Though your desire to help is strong, you might want to avoid the temptation of trying to force change in those around you. Even if you believe you can show them a better way of living their lives, they may not be willing to adopt your advice. If you instead simply focus on accepting others exactly as they are today, you will empower yourself to do what you can and then release the situation to the universe for handling.
Accepting others as they are right now allows us to rise above conflict and focus more energy on making our own lives satisfying and fulfilling. From our outside perspective, we believe we can see the problems of others clearly and know the perfect solutions, but they may not always agree with our assessment. Rather than trying to change others, we can recognize that they are on their own journey through life just as we are. While we can certainly offer our assistance, we can also choose to remember that lasting change is up to them. With the knowledge that we are not responsible for the happiness of others, we are free to focus on making our own lives more fulfilling. As you assist others with a mind-set of acceptance today, you will be able to keep your perspective neutral and loving.

Photosynth is a site by Microsoft that mashes images together and allows a complete stitch of multiple images. I was a bit disappointed because it doesn't flow smoothly from one image to the next like Clevr. It stitches images of varying perspectives which makes for a disjointed viewing experience if you click on the photos to navigate.
The space shuttle photosynth is composed of 246 photos and I was hopeful that the experience would mimic being there in real life. That being said if you were looking for a particular image or aspect of the space shuttle like I was a year ago (I needed to show the attitude thrusters for a momentum question) Photosynth is a good resource.
The best way I found to navigate is by pressing the advance button.
The Sphinx from National Geographic.
This is Flinders University, the uni I am studying at from the air. It has a more pleasant viewing experience as all the images are roughly from the same perspective.
What Photosynth does have going for it is that you can view other people's photos without a log in and it does have a professional interface. Some great pictures have been uploaded, so have a poke around the site.

Prince Charming Among the Cyborgs
There is great sport to be had in transporting an old story to a new setting, and Marissa Meyer seems to have enjoyed every bit of the conceit in "Cinder" (Feiwel & Friends, 387 pages, $17.99), a sci-fi adaptation of "Cinderella."
In futuristic New Beijing, a plague-stricken metropolis populated by humans, androids and cyborgs, our teenage heroine works as a mechanic. By repairing other people's technology, Cinder not only earns money for her cold-hearted stepmother but also hunts down spare parts for herself. For poor Cinder is a cyborg, a good-looking girl rendered half-human and half-machine after some sort of awful childhood accident.
Her extensive "repairs" have given her certain advantages: A yellow light blinks in Cinder's vision when anyone is lying, and she can scan the Web just by thinking about it. So when a somewhat furtive young man brings her an android to repair, it takes her only a second to download his identity as Kai, handsome prince of the realm—while she desperately tries to conceal from him the hanging wires where her old cyborg foot used to be. He has caught her midway through a repair, but it's a nice foreshadowing of what she'll accidentally leave behind on the palace steps when, as in the original "Cinderella," she flees a royal ball.
This being the first volume in a planned quartet for readers ages 12 and up, the plot contains elements for future expansion, including a vile lunar queen whose armies stand ready to conquer Earth if Kai refuses her and exciting last-minute revelations about Cinder's true identity. It all makes for an undemanding and surprisingly good-natured read, given "Cinder's" bleak and turbulent setting.
Younger readers—much younger ones—generally do not require quite so much drama in their literature. As children ages 2-6 will find in "Pip and Posy: The Super Scooter" (Nosy Crow, 28 pages, $12.99), it's engrossing enough to contemplate low-level questions of property rights, sharing and clemency. In Axel Scheffler's sweet story, a rabbit named Pip is zipping through the park on his scooter when he meets his mouse friend, Posy, who wants to try Pip's scooter. The distress we see on Pip's face will resonate with any child who has ever been in his position: Your friend may really like your toy, but you really, really don't want her to take it!
Yet off Posy whizzes on Pip's scooter. She soon discovers that riding it isn't as easy as it looks. "Careful, Posy!" we read, and, "Oh, no!" and then, "Poor Posy!" Other animal friends gather with worried faces as Posy lies on the ground, crying and pointing to her injured knee. Merciful Pip patches up his friend, who, in turn, apologizes for swiping his scooter. The final scenes of reconciliation bring these stressful events to a gentle, age-appropriate conclusion.
There are two pleasures to be had from Catherine Rayner's watercolor-and-ink-illustrated picture book, "Solomon Crocodile" (Farrar, Straus & Giroux, 32 pages, $15.99). The first is the gleefully toothy grin of the main character, which brings to mind Roald Dahl's Crocky-Wock as drawn by Quentin Blake. The second is Solomon Crocodile's amazing similarity to any number of overly exuberant small children who, when they feel like frisking, are told off for being "a nuisance" or "a pest" or "nothing but trouble"—epithets that Solomon hears from the frogs, dragonflies, storks and hippos who occupy his world. This familiarity makes it all the more satisfying for the active young reader when Solomon finds an equally boisterous comrade with whom to make the common cause of . . . "double trouble."

The West Coast comics—both veterans of many late-night shows, including Chelsea Lately—team up for their second weekend at Carolines this year. Kasher, whose 2012 memoir candidly told tales of mental institutions and drug addiction, has an onstage force as dark and bawdy as it is wily. Leggero plays with languor, dismissing the peons while batting her eyes and swiping the hair from her face with a pair of silken evening gloves.

On the Thursday evening edition of Infowars Nightly News, Alex Jones featured photo evidence of a FEMA rendition facility located at the airport in Los Angeles.
The photos and an interview with an eyewitness who described the facility and its inward facing barbed wire fence and one-way turnstiles add more compelling evidence to the indisputable fact that FEMA operates as a modern version of the Gestapo.

The ball dropped in Times Square to welcome the beginning of 2013.
But will the puck drop on a season in 2013?
We'll find out in the next 10 days or so. The new year begins with some momentum: owners and players continued talks today after the NHLPA presented an counteroffer to the NHL's proposal. According to the Associated Press' Ira Podell, the two sides got together today in smaller groups or through conference calls. "A full meeting...wasn't expected at the league office before 5 p.m.," he wrote.
The Jan. 11 deadline -- which was part of the NHL's recent offer -- was confirmed by Gary Bettman. That would mean the league would begin games by Jan. 19 after teams spend time in training camp. ""We don't think it makes sense to play a season any shorter than [48 games]," Bettman said, according to Podell.
Other than that detail, other tidbits weren't disclosed, something that indicates negotiations are serious. It was also the first time Donald Fehr and Bettman were involved in talks together since early last month. Those are good signs, but we all know what's happened when there's any optimism surrounding talks.
Given the official deadline that's in sight, that optimism isn't completely without merit. As SportsBusiness Journal's Chris Botta pointed out, the solution to the lockout is now simplified: "If there are no walk-outs, pouting or posturing, an NHL deal will be done by early next week."

Honestly guys, some of are saying the series is over? FFS come on, the wings are still up 2-1 in the series and there is still a period left.
One thing you'll find about a team that wins a lot is when said team faces adversity lots of pansy bandwagoners jump off the bandwagon at the snap of af****** finger.
That being said the Wings have one period to score at least two goals, which is certainly well within their means. It also means they need to get off their asses defensively and stop playing like s***.

I disagree. Abdelkader and Helm have been our two best this series. Babcock pulls him in favor of washed up Draper? WTF?
Posted 04 June 2009 - 09:06 PM
Yes exactly, its fatigue. Schedule favors the pens, thanks bettman, what a suprise. I think its obvious Det needs an influx of youth IMO. Homer and Maltby are done, drapes is near the end. Mistake sitting gator too. Hossa is doing jack. He needs to skate hard and use his speed to create openings and chances. hes trying to be the playmaker right now (wtf?). We need a heart wrenching talk between the 2nd and 3rd, the guys have got to gut it out....the pens just are out willing them.
Posted 04 June 2009 - 09:06 PM
It's not about the score, its' about the way the team looks dead and the other team is just playing with more heart.
No....I'm the CHIC that doesn't blame everything on ONE player........I never said Hudler WASN'T playing bad...I've NEVER said anyone sucks......it is a team....the TEAM is not playing well.........I will NEVER say that one sucks more than the other....Pitt is playing better.....but I WILL NOT say the team that I love sucks.....that's bad karma......I love the Wings and I have positive thoughts for them........
The TEAM wins and the TEAM loses........that's all there is to it...........I WILL NOT put blame one person.......
Why is this a question that has anything to do with the post anyway????
(Hudler playoff stats 4G 6A 10P....just b/c he hasn't scored in FINAL three games ...ahem..among others.......and he's missed passes....ahem...everyone else.......) doesn't mean he has sucked the whole playoffs!.
.....so NO I will not admit that he sucks.......
I don't think anyone SUCKS.....I just don't think the Wings' players are playing WINGS Hockey...........that's my opinion and since I am not "dissing" anyone else, you sure the hell don't have the right to judge me b/c I SUPPORT my favorite player........
It's not impossible to come from behind and have a miracle win........GO WINGS!

If you cannot get the facts correct, or accept them, put the computer down tonight and go to bed. There is a 3rd period. do we get better or worse. Unfortunately I have to believe the latter of the two. Hey, I'm a born and bred Michigander, but I love a good hockey game like this!! WOW!!!
Go getem boys!! Thef****** Cup lies in the balance tonight!
GO Wings...GGGGOOOOOO!!!!!!
Posted 04 June 2009 - 09:06 PM
By far the worst playoff period I've seen from the Wings in the last decade. Absolute rubbish.

That being said, I think we're going to play a better 3rd. If we come out without any steam, I'm going to be incredibly disappointed.
Posted 04 June 2009 - 09:06 PM
Exactly, well said.
Don't get me started on Holmstrom. I don't think you could ever question his effort but he's just giving us nothing offensively out there, not a thing. Hossa is trying (doesn't seem like the right word) to do it all by himself, doesn't bother passing, isn't going to the net. Everytime he's out there he has the puck and it's a 2-on-1, the end result is a turnover or an odd man rish the other way. He's not even looking for Flip, they'e getting in each others way, basically our 2nd line has become useless due to Hossa's inability to make anything happen and persistant to do it all himself.

Man, we better win game 5 in Detroit if we don't win tonight.
This was so funny I had to set it as my sig.
Posted 04 June 2009 - 09:07 PM
Because he has been scoring. why pull a player that has been playing and scoring when we need goals.
Posted 04 June 2009 - 09:07 PM
all signs point to YES
Just one chance is all i ever wanted...just one time i'd like to win the game...from now on i'll take the chance if i can have it...just one just one

Men's Tennis Goes 1-1 Saturday
MUNCIE, Ind. - The Ball State men's tennis team went 1-1 in its doubleheader Saturday afternoon at the Muncie YMCA Tennis Center. Ball State fell to No. 50 Michigan State (6-1) and then swept in-state rival Anderson (7-0). The Cardinals are now 7-5 on the season.
Against the Ravens, Ball State started strong sweeping all three doubles matches.
As Ball State headed in singles up 1-0 the Cardinals managed to take all six singles matches from Anderson. Dalton Albertin, Patrick Elliott and Austin Sansone didn't lose a game over their opponents winning 6-0, 6-0. Ray Leonard, Imanol Arconada and Austin Smith also defeated their opponents in straight sets.
The Cardinals fell behind early in their match against No. 50 Michigan State after losing the doubles point. Ball State did take one doubles match from the Spartans after Alexandre Brym and Arconada took down Drew Lied and JP Mullan at the No. 3 spot.
Smith was the lone Cardinal to win in singles action. Smith took down Michigan State's Will Davis 4-6, 6-2 (10-6) at the No. 6 position.
The Ball State men's tennis team continues non-conference action March 7 at UNLV in Las Vegas, Nev. First serve is at 2 p.m. (PT).

Indoors and Out, Hotel Bars Add Ambiance to Boston's Varied Nightlife Scene
By Jessica Polizzotti
Boston Local Expert
Boston hotel bars are hot among locals who want a classy space to enjoy drinks with a date, catch up with friends or even make new ones. Without checking in, you can check out the 10best hotel bars in Boston. Lively every night, these spots tend to peak Thursday- Saturday when local, single 9-5ers have time to unwind.
The Liberty Hotel is the place to stay for those looking to bring a little Vegas to Boston. With several bars sitting inside, you can meander the property and enjoy cocktails at both Alibi and Liberty Bar.
Those who prefer modern digs and trendy spaces will enjoy the W Hotel's lobby lounge, which entices guests to chill-out by day and into the early evening. As the night wears on, the crowd gets younger, and the line gets long.

Lesson Plan
I Can Do Anything
- Grades: PreK–K
- Unit Plan:
- Draw and tell about what they think boys and girls are able to do after a class discussion and a reading.
- Compare and contrast what they drew before and after.
- Use listening strategies while hearing a story being read.
- A book about gender, stereotypes, and how name-calling can hurt. My favorite book on this topic is Oliver Button Is a Sissy by Tomie dePaola
- Two copies of "What Can Boys & Girls Do?" (PDF) printable for each student.
- Pencils and crayons
- Chart Paper
Set Up and Prepare
- Copies of the "What Can Boys & Girls Do?" printable
- Chart with two columns with the headings, "What Boys Can Do?"
and "What Girls Can Do?"
- Copies of the Home Survey printable
Step 1: Tell the children about a student from last year who was the best kickball player in the class, who loved to go fishing and catch lizards, and was always getting into fights with other students. Write the names of three students: Jose, Kayla and Franklin (try not to use names of children in your class). Read the names and ask the children which student they think you were talking about. Have the children raise their hands and tally the responses. Most will think it was a boy.
Step 2: Show the children your chart entitled "What Boys Can Do? What Girls Can Do?" Ask the children to tell you what boys can do and what girls can do. Chart all responses.
Step 3: Distribute the "What Can Boys & Girls Do?" printable and ask the children to draw (and write if appropriate) one thing a boy can do on one side and one thing a girl can do on the other side.
Step 4: Gather the children together. Have volunteers share their pictures. On a few, ask, "Could a girl could do what you have pictured a boy doing?" and "Could a boy could do what you have pictured a girl doing?"
Step 5: Read to the children an age appropriate book about gender, stereotypes, and how name-calling can hurt. I like to read Oliver Button Is a Sissy by Tomie dePaola. After the story, remind children of the student you talked about yesterday. Tell them that the student was Kayla. Explain to them that many of us thought it was a boy because we have an idea of the way people should be. That is called "stereotypes."
If you read Oliver Button Is a Sissy, ask the children to explain what people in the story thought Oliver should do and what they thought he should not do. Discuss how the people in the story had a stereotype of the way Oliver should be just like we had a stereotype of the way Kayla should be.
Ask how Oliver was different from the stereotype we have of the way boys should be. What did the boys in the story do to Oliver because they had a stereotype of the way boys should be (they called him a sissy)? Tell them that calling someone a "sissy" is name-calling. Ask, "How did this name-calling make Oliver feel?" Ask the children if anyone ever called them a name and how it made them feel.
Step 6: Refer children back to the chart they made yesterday. Talk about how some of these things are stereotypes of the way boys and girls should be. Go through each response and ask if the other gender could do it too. Encourage discussion.
Step7: Distribute the "What Can Boys & Girls Do?" printable again and ask the children to draw again one thing a boy can do on one side and one thing a girl can do on the other side. Encourage the children to use suggestions from the chart, but to use activities from the opposite list for boys and girls
Step 8: Gather the children together. Collect the pictures and share those that might show "gender diversity" (a difference from what the children may have charted on day 1).
Supporting All Learners
Allow emerging writers to write their own sentences on their papers, while taking dictation for others. For Spanish speakers, read the Spanish version, Oliver Button es una Nena.
Lesson Extensions
Read William's Doll by Charlotte Zolotow. Tell the children that the things that Oliver and William liked to do made them special. They continued to do them even though people called them names, which is wrong. Ask the children if there is anything that they think they would like to do from either of the lists, especially from the opposite gender. Encourage the class to support those children who feel they can do anything. Remind them that sometimes people have stereotypes about what they can or cannot do.
- Complete the "What Can Boys & Girls Do?" printable
- Complete the Home Survey (for homework)
- Did the children understand the word stereotype?
- How do the pre and post responses differ?
- How might I do this lesson differently next time?
Assess Students
Teacher observation: Observe children's oral responses during class
Written Outcome: Compare the pre and post drawings.
- Subjects:Discovery and Learning, Drawing and Painting, Early Social Skills, Equality, Fairness, Justice, Individuality, Understanding Self and Others
- Skills:Listening Comprehension
- Duration:2 Class Periods

India is forming its own panel on global warming, because the Indian government says it cannot rely on on the United Nations' Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change.
The decision comes after a recent climate change report that included false claims headed by India's own Nobel Prize-winning scientist Dr. R.K. Pachauri.
"There is a fine line between climate science and climate evangelism," Pachauri said. "I am for climate science. I think people misused the IPCC report. The IPCC doesn't do the original research which is one of the weaknesses. They just take published literature and then they derive assessments, so we had goof-ups on Amazon forest, glaciers, snow peaks."
"I respect the IPCC but India is a very large country and cannot depend only on the IPCC and so we have launched the Indian Network on Comprehensive Climate Change Assessment (INCCA)," he added.
India's new panel will bring together 125 research institutions through India to work with international bodies. Together, they will monitor and compare glacial changes.

Finding Ada
Posted 16 October 2012 by
Today is Ada Lovelace Day, and if you don't know who Ada is, now's the day to do some digging and find out (I'd recommend starting here and here). A website called 'Finding Ada' is asking people to share their stories of the women who inspired them, after psychologist Penelope Lockwood's research suggested that role models can be gender specific. Ada Lovelace Day is an attempt to collect together stories of inspiring unsung women in science, technology, engineering and maths... Read more

ANN ARBOR -- Dennis Norfleet was one of the most popular freshmen on Michigan's football team a year ago.
And, he rarely touched the ball on offense.
This season, though, Michigan fans should be able to get an extra dose of Norfleet's speed burst as coach Brady Hoke confirmed Thursday that the 5-foot-7, 169-pound sophomore will be the Wolverines' primary kick and punt returner in 2013.
"He'll also do punts, we've got him doing both of them now," Hoke said. "He's done a very good job. He cracked one the other night (in the scrimmage), which was live, for about 35 or 40 yards.
"And that was some good on good competition, it was good to see."
Norfleet -- who was moved from running back to wide receiver in the offseason -- was Michigan's primary kick returner last season as a true freshman, returning 35 kicks for 827 yards (an average of 23.6 yards per return), both numbers good for second on the school's single-season list.
He only returned two punts last season, but one of those was a 42-yard return against Illinois.
By adding punt returner to Norfleet's duties, Michigan may be able to give its defensive special teams a lift it really never had last season.
Through 13 games in 2012, Michigan's punt returners -- mainly leading receiver Jeremy Gallon -- only actually brought back a total of 16 punts. Meaning most of the time, the Wolverines opted for a fair catch.
Hoke was more comfortable with Gallon as his punt return man last season due to his sure hands. But, now, he says he feels better about Norfleet's ability to handle kicks with consistency.
"Gallon and (Drew) Dileo, obviously, are still two guys we like (in the punt return game)," Hoke said. "(Jehu) Chesson in the kickoff return (could get a look), and then (freshmen Channing) Stribling and Jourdan Lewis (will continue to work on) punt returns."

Girls wrap up golf season at state
Jason Ferguson
Published: Thursday, May 29th, 2014
The Custer High School girls golf team came to a close last week when Marlee Schneider and Kassidy Adam competed in the Class A State Golf Tournament at Spearfish Canyon Country Club May 19-20.
Although the girls both shot over 250 total for the two days, coach Royed Hollick said it was most important that Schneider, a seventh grader, and Adam, an eighth grader, realize the accomplishment of making the state tournament at such a young age.
"They were disappointed in their performance, but as I and their parents told them, they made state," Hollick said. "There is nothing to be upset about. I was proud of them getting there."
Hollick said the young girls were extremely nervous to begin the tournament and he tried to calm them down by reminding them they had no real expectations other than to compete for two days.
"We told them to have a good time and do it for the experience," he said. "I have absolutely no problem with the way they played and the experience was wonderful for them."
Hollick said, for the most part, both girls showed improvement through the year with their swings and short games both consistently getting better as the year progressed.
Now, Hollick said, the trick is for the girls to continue to work on their game this summer and come back stronger next year. He also hopes seeing both Adam and Schneider make the state meet will encourage other girls to go out for the team next spring.
"They are both stoked about coming back and playing again," he said. "I was pleased they made it (to state) and was happy with their attitudes. They worked hard and did their best. That's all I can ask."

Natalie's Estate
Big Reds from the Columbia Valley
The Natalie's Estate Winery is nestled in the quiet foothills of the Chehalem Ridge in Oregon's Yamhill Valley. The family-run operation was founded in 1999 making small quantities big red wines from killer vineyards in the Columbia, Yakima and Willamette valley appellations. The first commercial single vineyard wines were released in 2000 with a Merlot and Cabernet Sauvignon from The Pines and Hillside vineyards outside the Dalles, Oregon. Named after Boyd and Cassandra Teegarden's daughter, Natalie's Estate is the product of a love for wine and the places the grapes are grown.
Teegarden stumbled into the wine business while waiting tables in college. Suddenly it dawned on him, "Damn; this food and wine thing works." An epiphany for a farm boy from Kansas. Boyd spent 15 years in the wine wholesale business and was able to travel to winemaking regions now and then for work. Rustic wines made in small batches intrigued him. "I love the complex Barolos and Barberas of Northern Italy as well as the big brash Cabs and Syrah made out in the sticks of Australia" said Teegarden. "These places had a magic about them. You can taste it in the wines."
Valley Garagista
While selling European wines for a local wholesaler Valley Wines, Boyd Teegarden was beginning to make his own wine at home in the early 1990's. He was in an amateur wine making club with the likes of Peter Rosback, Bill Beran, Scott Scull and others where they would all buy grapes from the Hillside Vineyards outside of The Dalles, Oregon then ferment their own versions of Cabernet Sauvignon and compare the results.
While others in the wine club started their own wineries, Teegarden bid his time until the opportunity presented itself in the form of David O'Reilly. Boyd knew David O'Reilly from buying Elk Cove wines wholesale. O'Reilly was the sales and marketing manager at Elk Cove Winery with a hankerin' to make his own wine. David helped Peter Rosback start Sineann in 1993, which eventually moved to the Medici facility on top of Chehalem Mountain. In 1999 O'Reilly invited Boyd to join the cadre of winemakers using the Medici facility along with David [Owen Roe] and Peter [Sineann] and later on, Dick Ferraro [Ferraro Cellars] and Howard Mozeico [Et Fille]. Natalie's Estate made wine at the Medici property for four years until they moved to a new winery facility built at the Teegarden home just a few miles west along the Chehalem mountainside.
The new cedar shake clad winery hugs against the hillside and is built to handle 3000 cases production, though in 2004, the production hovers at just 1200 cases. The winery is like a tricked out little sailboat that you can run with one person at the helm. "The grapes are gravity dropped into 1 1/2 ton fermenters and cold soaked to allow them to give up their juices slowly" said Teegarden. "We hand punch down [the fruit] and use extended maceration to go for those beautiful fruit tannins. The wines are lightly pressed out in a basket press that allows you to extract just the right amount of juice without getting near the seeds, which can be bitter."
Natalie's Estate has sought out 1 - 3 acre blocks in warm and cool weather areas of the Columbia Valley in addition to planting their own 3 acre plot of Pinot Noir in Yamhill County. "What we are trying to do is show what small piece of ground can do in a hands-off approach to winemaking".
Natalie's Estate Vineyard and Winery
Dueling Vineyards
Natalie's Estate is on the path to create dueling varietal wines using grapes grown in the warm Columbia Valley with one block of grapes grown where the nights are warm and the other block of grapes grown where the nights are cool. Dueling vineyards. Take Cabernet for instance. Grapes grown at 600 feet at the Hillside Vineyard outside of The Dalles, Oregon take in substantial heat units during the day, but the cooling winds rolling down the Columbia River at night drop the temperature significantly bringing the acidity in the grapes up which all helps give a sense of place to the fruit grown there. Cabernet Sauvignon grown up at 1200 feet on Rattlesnake Ridge come from the interior of the Columbia Basin where the nights don't always cool down like they do on the riverside. These differences reflect in the wines made from these grapes. Natalie's is exploring those differences with the vineyards below.
Pines Vineyard, Syrah and Merlot - Columbia Valley AVA- The Dalles, Oregon. Elevation - 300 ft.
This is a nineteen acre vineyard planted with Merlot, Zinfandel, and Syrah vines. The Merlot block that Natalie's contracts for consists of three acres. This vineyard near The Dalles is sited on old riverbeds of round, river washed rock and on shelves just above the ancient riverbeds. The vineyards' rocky soil is reminiscent of the vineyards of Cayuse which lie further east on the Washington side of the Columbia. The combination of heat soaked up by the rocks during the day and the microclimates of these riverbed vineyards produce a complexity of flavors in the wines made from the site. Given the cooler nights on the Columbia River, the Syrah takes on white pepper notes instead of the black pepper you get from grapes grown at hotter sites, but still with pretty floral and spicy character in the fruit. Sineann, Owen Roe also source grapes from this vineyard.
Hillside Vineyard, Cabernet Sauvignon - Columbia Valley AVA- The Dalles, Oregon. Elevation - 600 ft.
This is a twenty-three acre vineyard planted with Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Zinfandel, Chardonnay and Riesling vines. The Cabernet Sauvignon block consists of 4.5 acres. A combination of intense afternoon heat and cooling breezes from the Gorge, and thin rocky soils produce densely colored, rich and fragrant wines with nice mineral notes.
Rosa Vineyard, Cabernet Sauvignon - Yakima Valley Rattlesnake Hills AVA Elevation - 1200 ft
Rosa Vineyard is located near Sunnyside, Washington on the slopes of the Rattlesnake Hills. This vineyard is located on the ridge with good air drainage which helps it avoid late spring and early fall frost and winter kill. Rosa is planted with Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Chardonnay and Riesling grapes. The Rattlesnake Hills are characterized by an east-west ridge top with dry canyons, terraces, and ridges running southward off the main ridge toward the Yakima River. Voluptuous red fruit is the hallmark of the Cab from this vineyard. Again, another vineyard sourced by Sineann for Cab and by Owen Roe for Cab Franc, Syrah and Riesling.
McDuffee Vineyards, Cabernet Sauvignon- Columbia Valley AVA. The Dalles, Oregon. Elevation 400 ft.
This is a 5 acre vineyard planted with Cabernet Sauvignon and Syrah. The Cabernet Sauvignon vines are 20 years old in this vineyard. The vineyard was planted in 1983, and the vines are self-rooted. The vineyard gets sun all day and produces small and intensely flavored bunches of grapes. Flavors of black fruit, black berry, licorice, cassis, and blueberry are typical, with darker, intense flavors dominating. Mystic Winery and Sineann also get Cabernet Sauvignon fruit from this vineyard.
Elephant Mountain Vineyards - Yakima Valley- Rattlesnake Hills AVA Elevation 1400 ft
This vineyard sits on a series of south facing, gently sloping benches on Rattlesnake Ridge not far from the Rosa Vineyard site. This high elevation vineyard is planted with Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Syrah, Viognier and small plots of other Rhone varietals. Elephant Mountain is a higher elevation vineyard that enjoys cooler temperatures for late ripening. It features a fairly rocky, yet varied soil profile. Rockier ground stresses a plant which results in slower growth, which in turn provides less fruit with a more intense flavor.
Natalie's Estate has a Cab and a Viognier from this site underway and will add a Syrah from this site in 2006. The Viognier will be unoaked, fermented in stainless steel tanks shooting for a Condrieu style.
Les Vignes de Marcoux - Yakima Valley Elevation 1200 ft
This vineyard is located in the Northwest corner of Yakima Valley, on the southern slopes of the Ahtanum Ridge. The vineyard was planted in the early 1970's is one of the oldest and most respected in the state. It is one of the newest additions to the Natalie's Estate vineyard portfolio.
Made famous by a series of stunning wines made from the Red Willow section by David Lake, winemaker at Columbia Winery, it is the farthest west and highest altitude vineyard in the Yakima Valley. Due to its higher elevation the area was above the water level of the last Ice Age floods so the soils are more ancient and weaker than many younger soils in the Columbia Valley. Vines struggle here and produce grapes and wine with great intensity. 2006 will be the first vintage for Natalie's with this fruit.
Elton Vineyard, Pinot Noir- Willamette Valley- Amity-Eola Hills AVA Elevation 400 ft
This is a 60 acre vineyard planted primarily with Pinot Noir on the eastern side of the Eola Hills planted with the Wadensville, Pommard, Dijon 115, 777, and 114 in Jory type soil. The wines produced from this site typically show a distinctive blackberry, raspberry and plum notes with a firm structure. The one word from Boyd to describe the wines from this vineyard… finesse. Natalie's gets an acre of 27 year old vines adjacent to blocks contracted out to Ken Wright, Bethel Heights and Don Lange.
Natalies's Estate Vineyard, Pinot Noir - Willamette Valley- Chehalem Mountain AVA. Elevation - 300 ft.
This is the Estate vineyard on Natalie's home turf. Three acres of dry farmed Pinot Noir with Wadensville, Pommard and Dijon 113 & 114 clones on SO4 rootstock were put into the ground the spring of 2002 and 2003. The hillside next to his home and winery is mostly well drained WillaKenzie soil. Teegarden's work as the vineyard manager for his own vines has made him a better buyer for the grapes he purchases in the Columbia Valley.
Whistling Ridge Vineyard, Chardonnay - Willamette Valley - Ribbon Ridge AVA- Elevation 450 ft
This is a 15 acre vineyard is right above the estate vineyards for Patricia Green and Beaux Freres in the burley Ribbon Ridge area of Yamhill County. It is planted with Chardonnay, Pinot Noir, Pinot Gris, and Riesling grapes. The Chardonnay block which Natalie's Estate receives its grape is a mere two acres and Natalie's Estate receives it all. Ken Wright, Patty Green, Adea and Sineann receive Pinot Noir from this vineyard site. Belle Pente sources Pinot Gris from Whistling Ridge.
Reviews of the 2004 lineup:
2004 Elton Vineyard Pinot Noir - Amity-Eola Hills
A concentrated flavor of wild raspberry and strawberry with a hint of spice on an earthy finish comes across quite elegant. Unfiltered and unfined, this wine spent 11 months on 1 and 2 year old French barrels and preserves all the delicate nuances of a well made Oregon Pinot Noir. This wine has grilled salmon written all over it.
2004 Pines Vineyard Syrah- Columbia Valley
Pure dark fruit with good varietal character done in the northern Rhone style from six year old vines. The densely purple wine fills your nose with scents of violet and blueberry wrapped around some pretty cedar wood spice. On the palate some plum, lavender and a tad of licorice on the first tasting. Second go around some rosemary and white pepper flavors that calls out for a butterflied lamb shoulder. This pretty and youthful Syrah from the same vineyard that Sineann gets their Old Vine Zinfandel and Merlot grapes, doesn't hide its charms. Year old French oak provides a structure for the higher fruit and acids in the European styled wine. Very nice first Syrah from this winery.
2004 Rosa Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon- Rattlesnake Hills/Yakima
The Rosa Cab is a very showy wine. It was made to drink around a table with friends. It's not a brooding wine for intellectuals where one studies the wine. The voluptuous red fruit with bright cherry and raspberry flavors demonstrates why wines made from this vineyard are so popular. Let the wine open up for 10 minutes to discover notes of blackberry and current riding atop a nice finish of fine-grained tannins. Good acid balance with the fruit makes this a breezy social wine or a delicious food wine.
2004 Hillside Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon- Columbia Valley
Dark fruit flavors with black cherry, and cassis on a lingering spicy finish. Smooth fruit tannins with some leather and smoky notes make this a pleasure to drink. It starts off wound a little tight still, but with a little coaxing opens up nicely. It's pretty enough to drink today, but will benefit by a bit more time in the bottle as well.

Although we don't believe in timing the market or panicking over market movements, we do like to keep an eye on big changes -- just in case they're material to our investing thesis.
What: Shares of Incyte (NASDAQ: INCY ) , a biopharmaceutical company focused on developing therapies to treat oncology and inflammation-based diseases, skyrocketed as much as 32% after reporting top-line data from a proof-of-concept trial involving ruxolitinib for refractory metastatic pancreatic cancer.
So what: In its phase 2a trial, Incyte notes that ruxolitinib -- its oral JAK1 and JAK2 inhibitor that's currently approved to treat myelofibrosis under the trade name Jakafi -- when combined with Roche's Xeloda demonstrated a hazard ratio for overall survival in the intent to treat population of 0.79. In a pre-specified subgroup that was expected to benefit most from JAK pathway inhibition, the hazard ratio for overall survival was 0.47, with six-months survival at 42% for the ruxolitinib arm compared to just 11% for the placebo. Also, only patients in the ruxolitinib arm showed durable tumor response and significant improvement in body weight.
Now what: As you can tell by today's move higher, this is incredibly good early stage news for advanced metastatic pancreatic sufferers. Furthermore, it appears that Incyte has already honed in on which subgroups would benefit most by JAK pathway inhibition, meaning that a companion diagnostic test may be unnecessary. Jakafi delivered improved overall survivial in a phase 3 myelofibrosis trial, which lends hope that ruxolitinib to treat metastatic prostate cancer will do the same. With regard to Incyte, I'd love to see a pullback from today's pop but would certainly understand if it didn't.
Not to be forgotten in this as well is Novartis (NYSE: NVS ) , which has full licensing rights to ruxolitinib outside the United States. If things continue to go well for ruxolitinib it'll mean less lost sleep at night for Novartis shareholders who are looking for new therapies to take the reins as patent expirations sweep through the pharmaceutical industry.
