College soccer: Pirates crush Columbia Basin
Men's Soccer
Peninsula College's men's soccer squad dominated Columbia Basin for 75 of their 90 minutes of play Wednesday, routing the Hawks in Port Angeles, 4-2.
Keevan Webb broke open the scoring in the first minute and Ash Apollon and Alex Martinez added a score and an assist each in the P.C. victory.
Kalei Gallarde also had a score for Peninsula (4-0-1).
"For the first half we looked very good," P.C. head coach Andrew Chapman said. "(We) moved the ball well and got a lot of chances. Would have been nice to hold our shutout but in the end it was about playing time and working on different things."
Columbia Basin got late goals from Ivan Balbuena and Jesse Esquivel III in the 76th and 89th minute, respectively.
Peninsula outshot Columbia Basin, 17-8. P.C. keeper Angel Guerra had three saves.
The Pirates are back in action at 2:30 p.m. on Saturday, Sept. 7, against the Victoria Highlanders' reserve squad.
Women's Soccer
Peninsula College, the nation's 12th-ranked junior college women's soccer team, opened conference play with a 3-1 win over the Titans at Lane Community College on Tuesday, Sept. 10.
Pirate sophomore Bri Afoa, the 2012 NWAACC Baden Player of the Year, scored the first goal of the season for the Pirates just 15 minutes into the match, beating two Titan defenders off the dribble and then booting it past the keeper Samantha Schoene.
The Pirates made it 2-0 on a score by freshman Katelyn Raatz of Sparks, Nev., from about 30 yards out. lyssa Bertuleit, also of Sparks, assisted on the goal.
The hosts got on the scoreboard on a long-range bomb by Maddi Barton, but the Pirates would not let them back in the match, tallying an insurance goal in the 70th minute. Sophomore team captain Annie Armstrong of Olympia provided the match's final tally of an Afoa assist.
"We were creative in the attack and we played tough defensively," Peninsula coach Kanyon Anderson said. "We played well enough to win and to feel good about it, but we know we need to improve."
Emily Flinn of Forest Grove, Ore., and Kasie Lough of Roy, Wa., split time in the keeper position for the Pirates.
Lane's keeper Shoene was peppered by the Pirate front line and midfield, finishing the day with 15 saves.

Just days before LSU suffered perhaps its most disappointing loss on the football field in school history, the Tigers' program endured a big blow off the field. Dutchtown safety Landon Collins, the consensus No. 1 prospect in the state and a top-10 prospect nationally, committed to LSU's SEC rival, Alabama, leaving the Tigers and his family and friends dismayed.
Although the losses of Collins, who grew up in Algiers, and five-star quarterback Gunner Kiel, an Indiana native who enrolled at Notre Dame three weeks after committing to LSU, from the Tigers' 2012 recruiting class knocked the Tigers' 2012 lot -- at least temporarily -- out of the top 10, LSU still has secured much of the top in-state talent.
In what appears to be a down year for top Louisiana talent, the Tigers have non-binding commitments from 10 of the 19 members on The Times-Picayune Blue-Chip list.
"It's a great class," said O.P. Walker cornerback Dwayne Thomas, a blue-chip commitment to LSU. "Our class can compete with anybody in the country. It's going to show."
John Curtis tight end and LSU commitment Dillon Gordon agreed.
"It's a strong class," Gordon said. "We all bring athleticism to the table."
If the Tigers are successful down the stretch in landing some of the nation's top recruits, they'll likely achieve a top-10 ranking.
Thomas, a close friend of Collins, said although the Dutchtown standout has picked Alabama, Thomas doesn't believe the door is shut on Collins landing in Baton Rouge.
Collins and Thomas' friendship goes back to when the two attended elementary school together in Algiers. And Collins and another LSU recruit, Jesuit linebacker Deion Jones, played on the same youth-league team at Normand Playground.
"I've known Landon since I was 6 years old, playing park ball at Normand," said Jones, the Class 5A defensive MVP. "I wanted him to come play ball with me. It has been a while since we played on the same team because of the storm, but I was happy for him because that's where he felt comfortable. That's my boy, and I can't down him for making a decision about his life."
Thomas agreed, but added nothing is final until national letters of intent can be signed Feb. 1.
"We are really close," Thomas said. "He just wanted to take his talents somewhere else. It surprised me, but it didn't shock me. I honestly thought he was going to make his decision to come to LSU. But he really liked Alabama, and he really liked (Alabama Coach Nick) Saban. I still think we may have a chance. I don't know how sure (Collins' decision is), but I still think we have a chance on signing day.
"I talk to him a lot. But after he made his decision, I didn't really put too much pressure on him, because I knew he already had a lot of pressure around him. I was just there as a best friend to him. We just talked about it a little bit, then just moved on. I told him it's good for him that he wanted to go to Alabama. I don't hate him for it."
Meanwhile, there doesn't appear to be much fallout from LSU's disappointing 21-0 loss to Alabama in the BCS championship game.
"They went 12-0, won the conference championship," Jones said. "They just lost in the championship. Of course everybody wants to win the championship. But that drives me to want to go there and be a part of it."
Apparently Kiel didn't share the sentiment.
Kiel didn't enroll at LSU, but the Tigers remain in the hunt for several of the country's top prospects, including Denton (Texas) defensive tackle Mario Edwards, Dekansky (Houston) running back Trey Williams, Hueytown (Ala.) quarterback Jameis Winston and Oxford (Miss.) quarterback Jeremy Liggins.
LSU still is in the running for T-P blue-chip recruit Lorenzo Phillips, who starred at Patterson High. Phillips, who is visiting LSU this weekend, originally committed to Florida but he has re-opened his recruitment.
"Certainly, winning a national championship brings a lot of prestige," John Curtis Coach J.T. Curtis said. "But any time a team has that type of national success and has the No. 1 ranking for much of the season, it's impressive. Winning or losing the national championship won't affect whether they can get a kid."

Hey Kids it's Ranger Time
Ever heard the saying blind as a bat ?
Sheesh, any kindergartner or first-grader can tell you its not true.
First-grader Alex French knows.
Bats can see but they dont need their eyes, French said. Oh, and they sleep six months.
First-grader Zoe Tapert knows, Bats use ecolocation to find bugs.
They make sounds no one can hear, according to kindergartner Ian Saunsaucie.
They fly really good, kindergartner Aria Ludtke said.
I learned where they live, but I forgot what it was called, first-grader Julia Buchanan said.
On Friday, Susan Milans kindergarten/first grade multi-age class at South Whidbey Primary School was stoked. Halloween was two days away and it was ... da-da da-da da-da da-da... bat day.
The kids were learning about Myotis Lucifugus, commonly known as the little brown bat. Leading the bat seminar were Washington State Parks rangers Jon Crimmins and Patty Anderson, who brought environmental education to the class disguised in the form of fun. This is the second year that the local rangers have teamed with Milans class for the educational visits that now occur about twice a month.
We want to foster kids into stewardship, said Anderson, ranger at South Whidbey State Park. Theyll come out to the park and head into nature with a unique understanding of how to preserve it.
The visits are a hands-on approach to environmental education.
We bring lots of props, Crimmins said.
Often the props include bark, plants, pictures, stuffed animals and, on Friday, a bat outfit complete with sunglasses and sparkly wings.
It enhances things greatly when we can bring a forest to them when they arent able to go to the forest, Anderson said.
Many of the topics coordinate with the curriculum and other projects that Milan who has a background in natural resources and environmental education offers in the classroom. Past visits have taught the kids about woolly mammoths, slugs, and birds and will soon be of plants, plant communities and ecosystems. Last year, the students built a life-size eagle nest. This year, the students will make a trail guide for the Back 40 trails behind the primary school.
This is a chance to go deeper than the regular curriculum, Milan said. They learn the basic skills so they can be active in the world and know to ask questions, the environmental education gives them an awareness of that world around them.
Last week the kids learned about all of the places bats could live from bat houses to tree bark.
Ever hear the saying blind as a bat? Crimmins asked the students. Its not true, bats can see really well.
To illustrate this, Crimmins gave first-grader Julia Buchanan a pair of sunglasses to show how a bat can see really well its just dark. Soon, Julia also had glittery wings, a little pig nose, a felt belly and ears
If you took off a bats wings, what would it look like? Crimmins asked.
A worm ... a rat ... and other responses triggered giggles.
The students learned little brown bats eat about 600 bugs per hour and can consume half their body weight in bugs in a single feeding.
Anderson told the students how when catching mosquitoes, bats hit them with their wings onto their tail membranes, which they use to flip the bugs into their mouths.
Im guessing bats are called bats because theyre really good baseball players, she joked.
Later, cool was the response to the fact that bats sleep for six months of the year.
They only wake up two times to drink the moisture that has accumulated under their wings, Crimmins told the kids.
And before Crimmins could forget, the kids addressed echo-location.
When bugs buzz, bats find their food. They click and when they grab it they flick it and then eat it, kindergartner Bronte Audette-Cowie said.
In addition to maintaining South Whidbey State Park, Crimmins feels the public outreach and education via the visits are vital parts of his work as a ranger.
It gives the kids an idea of what is out there in the parks and helps them learn how they can help to take care of it better, Crimmins said. These are kids we will see growing up through the years at the park.
The talks are just an extension of the environmental education the rangers already do at South Whidbey State Park. While limited on resources to expand the educational possibilities, rangers do regularly offer campfire talks, interpretive tours and hikes.
And when at the park, or out and about on the island, its the rangers who receive the educational talks. Ranger Jon and Ranger Patty as they as known to the kids often get recognized and told stories of stuffed animals, slugs, and other creatures.
Its great, were celebrities now, Crimmins said.

New student?
If you're brand new to college, take these tests to find out what classes to take during your first term.
Not your first time in college? You might not need to take these tests. Instead, bring your transcripts to an advisor.
Read more about planning your first term.
PCC uses placement tests to determine your skill level in reading, writing, and math. We use these scores to match you to classes at the appropriate level. Placement test scores can also fulfill prerequisites and demonstrate required skill levels for courses.
How to take placement tests
Study for the test
Studying for placement tests improves your placement results, which means you won't waste time and money on classes you don't need! Read sample questions, get testing tips, and find tutoring help: how to prepare for your placement test.
Find a time
Testing is offered at all campuses and the Newberg Center. Tests are drop-in, no appointment needed. Tests take an average of 1½ to 2 hours. There is no time limit - if you run out of time, come back and finish another day. See Testing hours and locations.
Bring your ID
You must bring:
- Valid photo identification
- Your PCC ID number (it's in your acceptance email and starts with a G)
- If you drove, you'll need to buy a parking permit (testing itself is free for admitted students)
Do not bring:
- Calculators, pencils or scratch paper (we provide supplies)
- Children are not allowed in Testing Centers
Placement test alternatives
Distance students
If you take online classes and can't make it to a PCC Testing Center, you can arrange to take the test at an alternative site. Other community colleges often provide this service for a small fee. Contact a PCC Testing Center for help finding a test site and for directions on how to submit scores to PCC.
Test scores from other schools
We accept scores from other schools if the test was Accuplacer, ASSET, or COMPASS. We accept some ACT or SAT scores if taken in the last two years. Bring official copies of score and picture ID to a Testing Center for evaluation.
ESOL students
If you need preparatory ESOL courses, take the ESOL placement test. See information about ESOL Testing and Placement.
Interpreting your scores
After you finish, we process your scores right away and show you which classes fit your skill level. See how test scores correspond to classes. You can also get help choosing a math class based on your scores. You can retake tests once in a three year period. Math scores are valid for three years. Reading and writing scores do not expire.
Students with disabilities
If you have a disability and need accommodations, contact Disability Services to make arrangements. The tests are not timed, and all testing centers are wheelchair accessible.
Non-PCC students
Individuals not intending to take classes at PCC are charged $15 to take the Placement Test. Pay at Student Account Services before testing.

WaterA substance with small temperature changes for large heat
changes has a high specific heat capacity. Water takes much
longer to heat up in the sunshine than does land. This difference
is a major influence on climate.
When stringing telephone lines between poles in the
summer, it is advisable to allow the lines to
sag.Telephone lines are longer in a warmer summer and shorter in a cold winter.
Hence, they sag more on hot summer days than in winter. If the lines are not

the winter—especially when carrying ice.

Although warm air rises, why are mountaintops cold and

The St. Louis Cardinals are expected to sign catcher A.J. Pierzynski, the former Boston Red Sox catcher who was designated for assignment in early July, according to the St. Louis Post-Dispatch.
The Cardinals, 54-48 as of Friday night, are in need of a catcher. Yadier Molina recently had surgery to repair a torn ligament on his thumb and isn't expected to return until at least mid-September.
Pierzynski, 37, signed a one-year deal with the Red Sox this off-season for $8.25 million and was expected to add a significant chunk of offense from the left side of the plate. But he hit just .254 with a .633 OPS in 72 games while playing below-average defense before the Red Sox released him.
"The offense wasn't there," general manager Ben Cherington said when Pierzynski was designated for assignment. "I'm not trying to be critical of him. It wasn't any lack of effort on his part. It just wasn't there. When you sign A.J. Pierzynski, that's what you're hoping: You're hoping for left-hand offense at a premium position, and we thought that was important to the team. If we got that, it would complement the team."

Traditionally, weddings are family-oriented. The wedding of Keri Cullen Campbell and Duane Green on Jan. 20, 2014 took that to a new level.
Keri is a home health aide at the WCA Home. Her husband is a contractor for the U.S. Army serving in Afghanistan.
Planning a wedding presented some difficulties for the couple. In addition to the strain of a long distance relationship, the uncertainty of Duane's leave time made the selection of a place for the ceremony and reception complicated.

Wedding bouquets, a tradition for most brides, come in many beautiful and original styles. Pictured is a vintage-style bouquet, courtesy of Christa Kimble Photography of Ohio and modeled by Meghan Deas-Halley.
Keri approached WCA Home administrator Tammy Skelly about holding the wedding at her workplace. Keri knew that it was a beautiful Victorian home. In addition, she loves the residents who are like family to her.
Keri said, "My ladies have a big part in my life and I wanted to include them."
Skelly said, "Keri is a special aide who puts her heart and soul into her work."
Skelly agreed to the idea. Staff, residents and the home's board of directors all played a part in the day.
Aaron Smith from the housekeeping staff decorated the home for the event. He created a traditional looking design of lights and flowers to adorn the wooden staircase down which Tyler Campbell would escort his mother. Keri's daughter, Ashley served as her mother's maid of honor and friend of the family, Shawntai LeBarron, was flower girl.
The maintenance department worked on the sound system for the music. The aides arranged and served the light refreshments in the kitchen area. The activities department made sure each of the 37 ladies who live at the home had a special hat to wear. Even the board of directors donated hats for the occasion.
The Rev. Judy Cole of the Dunkirk First United Methodist Church officiated at the double-ring ceremony. She smiled at the couple and told them she was sure they knew what they were doing.
Cole compared the stability of a good marriage to a three-legged stool. The bride and groom would each be one leg of the stool.
"Let God be the third leg in the stool," she advised.
The 37 ladies in their fancy hats were also smiling.
Carol Sheldon, community relations coordinator at the home, said, "It (the wedding) made all the ladies feel good."
Following the ceremony, a reception was held in the dining room area of the home.
Both bride and groom are graduates of Pine Valley Central School.
At the present time, Duane is serving in Afghanistan. Keri is still working with "her ladies."
Recently she said, "They are so interested in how Duane is."
When Duane returns from Afghanistan in July, the couple will make Lawton, Oklahoma their home.

LOS ANGELES, July 15 (UPI) — Whales react to a noisy environment in the same way humans do — by raising their voices to be heard, U.S. researchers say.
Researchers monitoring 14 right whales — seven males and seven females — in Canada's Bay of Fundy found the animals increased their call amplitude in proportion to increases in background noise levels, the Los Angeles Times reported Sunday.
"Whales are compensating for increased ocean noise by going up in volume when they call to one another," said Joseph Gaydos, chief scientist for the SeaDoc Society at UC Davis, "which is basically the same thing that humans do when they're trying to talk in really noisy bars."
The North Atlantic right whale is listed as an endangered species, and its primary habitat is the coastal waters of the eastern United States and Canada, an area with high levels of commercial, naval and recreational shipping traffic, said Susan Parks, lead author of the study and assistant professor of acoustics at Pennsylvania State University.
Noise generated from the commercial ships has the same pitch as a right whale's call, Parks said. "This is a problem because its noise source overlaps the frequency range of the whales' calls," she said.
Sound is vital to the right whales' survival because they depend on it for vital activities including communication, navigation and feeding, and researchers are concerned about the threat of increased noise pollution in the oceans.
"Marine mammals are experiencing greater amounts of noise increases than many terrestrial animals, so it's important to understand how they respond to this and what the effects will be," said Stephanie Watwood, a visiting biologist at Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution.

CK's power hungry nature had finally taken control of him, and he started foaming at the mouth. A hand ripped through his chest, originating in his stomach. The hand was soon followed by an arm, then a head, and after the entire body had came out. This new figure was the physical manifestation of CK's evil self, and looked exactly like CK, only without a nose. The evil CK looked down at the original, who was bleeding profusely from his stomach. Only, instead of blood, it was bacon grease, which was the source of CK's power. The "clone" ignored him and went on his way, his eventual goal being world domination.
About twenty minutes later, I, Neoquid, walked by the dying CK. CK noticed me walking by, and spoke to me.
"Please help me, I've changed my ways, I swear." said CK, who proceeded to cough up bacon grease.
At the time, I thought that CK was still as evil and power crazed as he always was. As such, I wanted to protect the future of humanity.
"You'll get no sympathy from me." I said, and walked away.

Earlier this week we reported that Razer CEO Min-Liang Tan had issued an offer and challenge to left-handed gamers via his Facebook page. Should the comment announcing the possibility of a Left-handed Naga Gaming Mouse reach 10,000 likes, the item would go into design and production, likely at a loss to the company. If this doesn't evidence devotion to a fan base, I'm not sure what does.
It seems, though, that some of you southpaws are fickle. Many left-handed gamers have indicated that they really would rather just stick with their right-handed Nagas. Tan points out,
…we have limited resources here at Razer – designing/making a left hand mouse means one less other mouse/product that we can design – whether it's an ambidextrous or a RH mouse as we'll need to put our design team to it.
Despite that, it seems enough of you sinister types (and I mean that in the traditional sense of the word) want to get your MMO on in the comfort you deserve. Tan has just updated his Facebook page with this info:
You spoke. We listen. At Razer, the community is pretty much everything to us. Hell, we are part of the community (For Gamers. By Gamers. baby!) and I'm happy to announce that we achieved the 10K likes on the LH Naga in less than a week (and 3 more weeks to the deadline). Well, we're going to make it. It'll take at least till next year, but it will be done. Till then, keep those ideas coming!
We've also received the following information on the product features:
17 MMO-optimized buttons
Program up to thousands of different in-game commands.
Maximum Comfort for Long Gaming Sessions
Game for days with the Razer Naga's ergonomic design, optimized for easy access to every button.
Custom Interface AddOns for MMO Games
Organize your skills and eliminate visual clutter with the Razer Naga's in-game custom interface AddOns (available for World of WarcraftTM and Warhammer Online: Age of ReckoningTM, and more).
Product Features:
- 5600dpi Razer Precision 3.5G Laser Sensor
- 1000Hz Ultrapolling™ / 1ms response time
- 200 inches per second max tracking speed
- Zero-acoustic Ultraslick™ mouse feet
- 17 MMO-optimized buttons (including 12 button thumb grid)
- Optional MMO-specific software AddOns
- Unlimited character profiles with AddOns
- Approximate Size : 116 mm / 4.57" (Length) x 70 mm / 2.76" (Width) x 46 mm / 1.81" (Height)
- Approximate Weight: 134 g / 0.30 lbs
Tan took a big risk opening the door for fans to make their voices heard. Regardless of how this turns out financially, it's simply impossible to quantify the intangible benefit that the good will of this gesture is generating for Razer.

EAST SHORE -- If Staten Island moves forward with plans to revitalize its coast lines, the East Shore would be a model for other parts of the borough, where residents suffer from Boardwalk envy.
But there is work also to be done along East Shore parks and beaches to fully take advantage of its waterfront, the American Institute of Architects concluded.
The Regional/ Urban Design Assistance Team (R/UDAT) last week completed its study of Staten Island - the product of a dozen urban planners from other parts of the state and nation who volunteered to provide an independent vision for the Island.
Their plan focused on connecting the public to the waterfront and promoting maritime industries along each of its coasts.
On the North Shore, the R/UDAT team saw potential for creating a clean and bustling downtown, while recommendations for the West Shore and the South Shore's Charleston section focused on generating maritime jobs and business out of old and new manufacturing sites.
But the East Shore's proximity to the Staten Island Railway makes the area a promising location for new retail and residential development, the R/UDAT team said, while improvements can be made to further open access to the water and enhance amenities along the beaches.
Developing homes and town centers along the railway could improve commute times and take pressure off the Island's clogged highways.
Redeveloping the former Stapleton home port, which straddles the North and East Shores, has sat on the table for years as the logical next step toward revitalization.
At the public forum that informed the R/UDAT study last week, Staten Islanders voiced concerns over preserving area views and fears about gentrification.
The team responded by presenting models of arts-based community development with gentrification controls, and sketches of low structures and alternative scattered towers that would "frame" views of Manhattan.
"The work begins with the basic premise that the view corridors to the water belong to everyone on the street," the R/UDAT team wrote in their study, "Your Staten Island."
The visiting urban planners also drew sketches of potential development directly on top of the rail line. Adding mixed-use buildings - with parking, housing and retail - atop railway stations would allow Islanders to take advantage of existing infrastructure.
The R/UDAT sketches use New Dorp Station as a model.
Grass-topped buildings along three blocks spanning Ross and Rose avenues and New Dorp Lane would include elevators and escalators to the train station, first-floor shops, and third- fourth- and fifth-floor apartments, all with walkable access to the stores along New Dorp Lane.
Islandwide, the R/UDAT team recommended improving town centers, adding retail and reusing historic building stock, where possible.
Creating "tool kits" to show incentives and opportunities for renovations, tenant improvements and new business and compiling data on local markets could assist those efforts.
One of the major recommendations of the R/UDAT team was to provide a continuous path around the entire Island, near, and where possible, directly on the waterfront.
Their sketches show a continuous promenade along St. George and the Stapleton home port, with streets ending at the waterfront in parks or cul-de-sacs that pull the existing grid to the edge of the water.
Ugly railway stations could be improved by taking down visual and actual barriers, such as fenced stairwells that lead to the train stations.
And bike paths and improved amenities along local waterfronts would draw people out to enjoy the coasts.
Staten Islanders can't fish in their waters at night because of closed beaches, noted Kerry Sullivan, chairman of the Natural Resources Protective Association, at the R/UDAT forum.
City Councilman James Oddo (R-Mid-Island/Brooklyn) hopes to get funding this year to complete the second phase of improvements at New Dorp Beach - which would include wooded walking and jogging trails from Cedar Grove Avenue to the waterfront - and bring other amenities to beaches north of New Dorp.

UNCASVILLE, Conn. - Trouncing Penn State was no challenge for the University of Kentucky men's basketball team on Saturday.
The Wildcats' harder task was satisfying their own coach. This time, they did.
"I tell these guys, if you're not doing what you're supposed to do, I'm taking you out,'' John Calipari said after an 85-47 blitz that left even this demanding coach fairly satisfied.
The showcase game of the Basketball Hall of Fame Tip-Off Tournament was also the first of a two-day, eight-game extravaganza at the Mohegan Sun Arena.
No. 2-ranked Kentucky will play Old Dominion in Sunday's noontime title game of the Naismith bracket.
Old Dominion claimed a 68-66 overtime win over South Florida Saturday. Kent Bazemore, who had foot surgery in August scored 23 points with nine rebounds for Old Dominion.
A halfcourt shot by South Florida's Victor Rudd hit the rim at the horn in overtime.
Marist, Vermont, Long Island and Radford played in the Springfield bracket on Saturday night.
Kentucky led 47-15 at halftime of the opener. Doron Lamb outscored Penn State by himself in the first half, scoring 17 of his game-high 26 points before the break.
"My motor is getting better. I'm working with (assistant coach) Kenny Payne, and my ballhandling and conditioning are improving,'' the sophomore guard said.
The two-game afternoon session drew 4,755 to the 10,000-seat arena.
A large chunk of the crowd came from Kentucky, whose traveling fan base is renowend.
Kentucky had a 45-39 rebounding edge, and held Penn State to 26.9 percent shooting.
Shooting 16.2 percent in the first half doomed the Nittany Lions (3-1).
"They missed shots, but why did they miss? You think you're open, then all of a sudden, you've got arms and legs and teeth on you,'' Calipari said.
"They missed some open ones, too.''
Effects of the Penn State football scandal were not noticeable Saturday, but coach Patrick Chambers said its aftermath has been in his team's thoughts.
"We've had a lot of meetings. We are obviously very saddened by the situations with the families and the children,'' said Chambers, a first-year coach who was at Boston University last year.
"We're trying to get some normalcy back. We're doing the best we can.''
Returning to New England gave Calipari a chance to recall his own UMass days from 1988-96.
"I coached in this state my first year at UMass,'' Calipari said.
"We were playing UConn in Storrs, and after a minute and a half, we were down 11-0.
"I called timeout and said 'guys, we have one goal tonight - get the ball over halfcourt.' We still lost by 25 or 30, but we did get it over halfcourt.''

The downpour of rain Monday morning/Sunday night made Mercer County American Legion League baseball fields unplayable forcing the postponement of games.
Defending champion Bordentown Post 26, which has played just one game this season, a 10-0 whitewash of Ewing Post 314, will replay its home game with Hightstown Post 148 (2-1), Monday, June 16.
Broad St. Park Post 313 (2-0), one of just three undefeated teams after just one week of play, will take on Allentown (2-1), in its make-up game, July 3 at Nottingham High School.
Hopewell Post 339 (0-1), which like Bordentown has played just one game so far this year, will try again against West Windsor-Plainsboro (2-1), June 19 at West Windsor-Plainsboro South High School. WW-P swept a doubleheader, Sunday, beating both North Hamilton, 6-5; and Princeton, 6-1.
Princeton Post 218 (0-2) still looking for its first win of the season will try again against Robbinsville (1-1) at Robbinsville High, July 6, after Monday night's game was postponed.
There was no immediate word on Monday night's game between Lawrence Post 414 (0-3) and South Brunswick (2-0), the newest member of the MCALL.
One team not scheduled to play last night, but off to a nice start is Doug Moore's Trenton squad.
Trenton Posts 93/182 has won two of its first three games, including a win Sunday over Hamilton Post 31.
Trenton's only loss in the early going was a one-run decision to North Hamilton, which happens to be North Hamilton's (1-3) only win.

Social Media B2B
Many B2B companies approach social media the same way they approach other parts of their business. With silos. No matter the size of the company, there are separations that reduce efficiency and cause confusion both within and outside the company. Even social media starts in a silo, usually in the marketing or pr department. And don't even get me started on technology silos where company data lives in different systems depending on the function.
Here are some ways to use social media to break down the silos in your B2B company:
1. Align Sales with Social Media
The lack of alignment between sales and marketing continues to exist as more B2B companies use social media to generate leads and improve their prospecting. Short of doing an exchange program where you embed a marketer in your sales team and a sales person in your marketing team, this starts with communication. Make sure that each team understands the other's challenges. Marketing is now responsible for more of the journey through the buying process than ever before….

While we understand that parents have an interest in a student's academic progress, they cannot be granted access to a student's records without written consent of the student. The Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act (FERPA) that gave parents the sole rights to a student's records at the K through 12 level, transfers that right to the student once the student enters post-secondary education.
This legal concept of "parent as third party" is a dramatic change; we understand that the transition can be difficult for parents. However, in the eyes of FERPA, the contractual relationship is between the adult student and the educational institution. Everyone else is a "third party."
We encourage parents to consult with the student when/if academic information is needed. And we encourage parents and students to establish how and when this information will be shared before the student starts college. That way there will be fewer misunderstandings. An open dialogue is the best way to obtain the information the parent needs in a timely fashion.
I'm paying the bills. Can I have them sent to me?
Bills are sent only via email to the student's email address. The student can easily forward the bill to you. Dates the bills are sent are listed in the parent calendar. (Link) By putting the dates on your calendar, you can remind your student to forward the bill to you.
My student wants to talk things over with me, but I don't know what he/she has taken or what he/she should take.
The student should, of course, talk with the adviser about requirements. However, if you and your student want to talk things over, the student can request an unofficial transcript or a degree audit (link) and it will be emailed to the student. The student can then forward the document to you or anyone else.
Are there release forms that would give me access to grades and financial information?
- The release form for grades and bills can be obtained in Registration, Schofield 128 or on line at: http://www.uwec.edu/registrar/student/parents.htm
- A separate release form is necessary for financial aid information. This can be found at: http://www.uwec.edu/finaid/resources/InfoRelease.htm
- Important notes:
- The student has the right to withdraw this permission at any time.
- You must still request the information in writing.
- Most information cannot be given out over the phone.
- Offices other than the Registration and the Business offices are not notified that the student has signed a release form. If you call an adviser or instructor, for example, they will not be able to talk with you about a student's grades.
As you can tell from this, the easiest way to get information is almost always to talk with your student
I heard that FERPA allows universities to contact a parent if a student violates alcohol or drug policies. Will I be contacted?
FERPA regulations allow, but do not require this. UW-Eau Claire policies do not permit release of this information.
Where can I find out more information about FERPA?
- The Registrar's web-site has additional information: http://www.uwec.edu/registrar/FERPA/index.htm
- The U.S. Department of Education is responsible for overseeing FERPA. See the Department's Web site for additional information. www.ed.gov/policy/gen/guid/fpco/ferpa

1. Brazil fans have blamed Mick Jagger for their humiliating 7-1 defeat to Germany in the World Cup after branding the Rolling Stones singer a national curse.
Jagger has been nicknamed "pe frio" – literally "cold foot", a term of bad luck – because every side he's backed in the tournament has gone on to suffer a defeat.
2. He was spotted in a VIP box at the Mineirao stadium in Belo Horizonte during yesterday's semi-final, much to the dismay of Brazil fans everywhere.
3. Spectators had tried to persuade Jagger to back Germany, knowing his support could result in their elimination from the World Cup.
6. However, it was obvious who he was supporting after he was pictured surrounded by friends and family in Brazil shirts – although he did try to soften the blow by wearing an England cap.
7. Jagger has an unfortunate history of backing the wrong team in the World Cup.
8. In Lisbon he told fans at a Rolling Stones concert that Portugal would win the entire tournament…
9. They didn't make it out of the group stages.
10. And in Rome he told fans that Italy would beat Uruguay in their crucial group match and progress… They lost and were eliminated.
11. As a result of the "curse", fans have been begging Jagger to support their rivals throughout the World Cup.
17. After the 7-1 defeat, Brazilian news network R7 branded Jagger the "biggest jinx in history", prompting his former partner Luciana Giminez to defend him.
Giminez, who has a teenage son with the Rolling Stones singer, uploaded a message on Instagram after the game describing him as a good friend and father, and asked people to stop abusing him.

Today Congressman Mike Capuano traveled to Haiti to review humanitarian relief efforts in the aftermath of last month's devastating earthquake.
"I represent one of the largest Haitian-American communities in the country and I thought it was important to see firsthand how much needs to be done to help the people of Haiti rebuild their lives and their neighborhoods. I also thought it was important to convey the depth of America's commitment to Haiti," stated Congressman Mike Capuano.
Congressman Capuano will meet with officials and be briefed on a host of issues, including the status of rescue and reconstruction efforts, the provision of emergency food, shelter and medical care and the work of non-government organizations on the ground.
Rep. Robert Scott, Rep. Michael Burgess, Rep. Dennis Kucinich and Rep. Gwen Moore are also participating in the trip to Haiti.

Raw Food Central became a vision of founder Curtis Griffing over 30 years ago when he overcame a severe case of rheumatoid arthritis by adopting a 100% raw food diet and lifestyle. Doctors gave him no hope for a cure and promised him a future with artificial joints. "A lot of suffering was endured until I came across the truth about raw food along with a healthful lifestyle". Curtis continues to enjoy a 100% raw food diet and wouldn't have it any other way.
Curtis was mentored by some of the best, in the early years when few were "Raw" - Dr. Herbert Shelton, Dr. Robert (Bob) Gross, and Jo Willard, to name a few. In 1982 Curtis became a member, then Vice President and now President of Natural Hygiene, Inc. whose sole purpose is to disseminate health information via seminars, literature, audio, video and counseling to those interested. During the early years many friends and family members were counseled in health. Since then hundreds have been helped with a 9 week course that Curtis teaches called HealthPath. He has been teaching this 9 week class since 2001 and it has become a mainstay to the community. Curtis and his sons Wynter and Windsor enjoy the raw food lifestyle daily in their personal lives and have no desire to venture away from it because of how great it makes them feel.
Raw Food Central finally came to fruition in 2001 with its first web site, as well as its own store front in Windsor, CT at 446 Broad St in 2008. Most recently, Raw Food Central has moved to a much larger location in Berlin, CT, the address is 225 Episcopal Road; we have been at our new location in Berlin since August 1st, 2013. The Raw Food Central store front only carries Raw Food products, as well as providing lots of health information.
Nutrition and Dietary Counseling are also available. Curt and his two sons Wynter and Windsor are able to relate to people of all ages and backgrounds.
A monthly Raw Food Potluck is offered on the second Sunday of every month at 5pm. These are 100% raw meals only! Attendance can be anywhere from 25 to 50 or more each month and the numbers keep growing! (The Meetup Attendance Stats below are not accurate because most in our group do not RSVP they just come).
Those new to our group please call or email to let us know you're coming. Our phone number is 1-855-6-EAT-RAW (1-855-632-8729)
Raw Food Central is a great place to meet and eat with others interested in the raw food lifestyle.

MARSHALL - It hasn't quite sunk in yet for Josh Anderson of Marshall, that he has graduated from college and in only four years - nowadays five years is the norm. He packed a lot in during those four years. He recently graduated with a business management degree with a political science minor and is the outgoing student body president at Southwest Minnesota State University.
Anderson worked with two Minnesota State Colleges and Universities chancellors, James McCormick and Steven Rosenstone, and three SMSU leaders - Dr. David Danahar, who retired as president in 2011; interim president Dr. Ron Wood and current president, Dr. Connie Gores. He also helped the university manage two budget crises.
Part of his duties as the SMSU student association president was to meet with the president weekly so he got to know each of them.

Josh Anderson
Anderson felt that Danahar tried to turn SMSU into "Princeton on the Prairie" and neglected the college's rural roots.
"I'm a big supporter of liberal arts - we need that, but Danahar lost focus on our ag program," he said. "As many good things as Danahar did, it killed me to see the ag department wither. You can't forget your identity."
Anderson said other four-year ag programs, such as the one at South Dakota State University in Brookings, S.D., picked up the slack and saw an increase in its enrollment.
"SDSU has grown exponentially," he said.
Anderson has a highly favorable opinion of Danahar's successor, Wood, who served from 2011 to 2013.
"He did an outstanding job," Anderson said. "He was more like a president than an interim president."
Wood was "visible at volleyball and football games," he said. "Danahar hardly would show his face around campus. Wood still comes to the campus. He still has his SMSU bumper sticker. He's still committed to the school. We were very fortunate to have him. He started to recommit the university to agriculture. That's the best thing he did."
Anderson appreciated Wood's leadership style.
"He was present and vocal at meetings, including us whenever he could, asking 'what do you think?'" Anderson said. "He was well-liked."
Anderson has gotten to know Gores as well in her short time as president.
"I'm very proud of where she has come in her first year as president," he said. "She's very committed to the organization. She has hired a new development leader, a new provost and two deans - four new staff members so far."
Anderson was on the search advisory team that recommended Gores for the presidency.
"We sent two finalists to the (MnSCU) chancellor, and he made the final decision," he said.
Gores was brought into an institution that was saddled with a budget deficit of $3 million.
"The deficit wasn't her fault, but she handled it as best she could," he said. "She's done a very good job."
Anderson got to know Gores during her frequent meetings with the executive board.
"I met with her weekly, and the transparency is unlike anything I've ever seen," he said. "Sometimes those meetings got heated, but we got along very well. She's very professional."
Anderson is glad that Gores is supportive of agricultural programming.
"Wood got the ball rolling for more ag education, and Gores is continuing with that," he said.
From working with fellow students, with MnSCU, SMSU administration throughout his college career he got to know the higher education system well. In addition, he worked at the admissions department as a work-study job.
"I toured students around campus," he said.
Anderson also volunteered as a university ambassador for three years, giving up many a Saturday to give tours to campus visitors.
He was an orientation leader for two years.
"I did the most I could to recruit and retain students," he said.
Some days, he said, he would get frustrated with the pace of progress.
"People would tell me you don't have to solve all the problems," he said.
Prior to coming to SMSU, Anderson said he hadn't been interested in politics.
After doing well in an American government class - "I understood the national government, American history, the colonies, the forming of America," he said - Anderson joined the student senate in his second semester as a freshman.
"It's beneficial to have freshmen and sophomores in student government," he said. "It's nice to have a variety of perspectives."
Then the vice president resigned in October of 2011, and Anderson was appointed in his place after which he won a special election. He served until May of last year when he became president.
"I've been in a leadership position the better part of three years - that's uncommon," he said. "Most students are lucky if they serve one. It's unusual to be vice president after only one semester as a senator. It's a job I took very seriously."
Anderson is grateful for the leadership skills he developed working in student government at SMSU.
"It's the best decision I've made," he said.
Anderson said he has been told that this senate has been the most active since the 1970s.
"People knew us on campus," he said. "We played hardball but garnered a lot of respect."
People also told him his presidency was reminiscent of Marty Seifert's, when he was the student body president 20 years ago at Southwest State.
Anderson currently is working for Seifert's gubernatorial campaign. A member of the College Republicans, Anderson said he has followed Seifert's career for years.
"He's popular where I'm from, which is Springfield - the Sleepy Eye/New Ulm area," he said.
Anderson knows he is fortunate to be working on a gubernatorial campaign and at such a young age.
"I'm very thankful," he said. "It's been rewarding. It's not a money-making project, but I believe in Marty and I believe in Minnesota. I've developed a deep love for the state of Minnesota with all the traveling we've been doing."

Good work is its own reward, but once in a while it's nice to get some recognition, especially when it comes from "60 Minutes" correspondent Bob Simon or former MSNBC commentator Keith Olbermann.
That's what members of the KUT News staff experienced on Oct. 10 when they, along with 400 other journalists from around the country, traveled to New York City to celebrate the best of the best at the annual Radio Television Digital News Association's (RTDNA) 2011 Edward R. Murrow Awards Dinner. KUT News Director Emily Donahue and senior reporter Nathan Bernier were there to pick up KUT's first-ever National Edward R. Murrow awards for two stories produced last year.
"Winning a National Murrow Award is a huge honor, especially because it's given in the spirit of one of the defining men of broadcast news, Edward R. Murrow," explained Bernier who won a Murrow Award for his profile of Douglas Curran, a doctor in Athens, Texas, who treats up to 50 patients a day. The three and one-half minute story, "Doctors on Healthcare," gave human voice to how congressional legislation could impact rural Texas doctors and won in the RTDNA's "audio reporting: hard news" category.
"When I first got into radio I used to listen to Murrow's WWII broadcast archives," said Bernier. "I never would have imagined being honored with an award named for him -- and receiving it from Keith Olbermann."
Donahue accepted the Murrow Award for the NASA End of the Space Shuttle feature, which she produced. A collaborative effort, the story was reported by Bernier, Mose Buchele, Matt Largey, Ben Philpott and Jennifer Stayton.
The 30-minute retrospective on the NASA Space Shuttle program won in the "audio news series" category. The story featured archival audio clips from nearly every decade of the space program, highlighted the shuttle program's triumphs and tragedies, interviewed some of the employees being phased out and emphasized the program's impact on the state's economy.
"Earning two National Murrow Awards really demonstrates the caliber of our news team," said Donahue, who established the KUT News department in 2002. "This is a group of extraordinarily talented, hard-working news professionals dedicated to telling the story of central Texas to our audience and the world."
Both projects won regional Murrow awards in April to qualify to compete at the national level.
"For me personally, it's a humbling experience and only makes me want to keep working hard so I can live up to the high expectations attached to this recognition. If anything, it forces me to raise the bar on my own reporting storytelling," concluded Bernier.
About KUT:

Better Than I Expected - Laguna Niguel, CA
This was my first time using fillers and I was a little nervous about going with Radiesse since its not reversible like the others if things go bad. At first, I was worried about the results b/c I could feel the firmness of the injection in my cheeks. But the filler softened after about a week... READ MORE

A new event has been planned for the Evergreen State Fairgrounds in late April, to include a carnival, a beer garden, a barbecue competition and live music.
The event, called the Evergreen State Spring Festival, is intended to be more oriented to activities and fun than other events that have been held at the fairgrounds in the spring in recent years, which have been primarily trade shows for the recreation industry.
The expo events, which were held for the last three years, were not as successful as the fair had hoped because they coincided with the opening weekend of fishing and because they were not able to schedule them earlier in the year.
The new event will simply be a weekend of fun.
"We will have the carnival, like we do at the fair," said Troy Kliene, marketing director at the fairgrounds. "There will be food and commercial vendors, like we have at the fair."
The event will feature the return of the Washington State Spring BBQ Championship, which last year drew nearly 40 barbecue teams from around the state to kick off the competition season.
The purse is up to $5,000 this year from $3,500 last year, and this year visitors will be able to sample the work of the pit masters.
The two-day event will also include a beer garden featuring local craft beers, as well as live music all day, probably in the new events center at the fairgrounds.
And one unusual feature of the festival will be a root beer garden where those either too young or not inclined to drink alcohol can get a snack or a drink and listen to music.
The fair is still accepting applications for vendors.
"This might be a good opportunity for Sky Valley businesses to promote themselves," said Sky Valley Chamber of Commerce Director Debbie Copple.
The event will be free, although parking will be paid.
The Spring Festival will take place Saturday, April 27, from 10 a.m. to 8 p.m. and Sunday, April 28 from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. The carnival will open at 11 a.m. both days, and will also be open Friday, April 26, from 4-10 p.m.
