text: Plaintiffs in Monsanto class action attend mediation By Kate White December 27, 2011 Story Share CHARLESTON, W.Va. -- During a court-ordered mediation Tuesday, about 300 plaintiffs gathered at the Marriott Hotel in Charleston to see if they could resolve a class action lawsuit against Monsanto -- just one week before a trial against the former Nitro chemical plant is scheduled to begin.For more than 50 years, the former Monsanto plant churned out herbicides, rubber products and other chemicals. The plant's production of Agent Orange created dioxin as a toxic chemical byproduct.Charleston lawyer Stuart Calwell alleges in a class-action case, filed in 2004, that Monsanto unsafely burned dioxin wastes and spread contaminated soot and dust across the town, polluting homes with unsafe levels of the chemical.Judges Booker Stephens, of McDowell County, and Alan D. Moats, of Taylor County, ordered both sides to meet to discuss a possible deal and avoid the trial, which is set to begin Jan. 3. The trial is expected to last about three months.The lawsuit seeks medical monitoring for at least 5,000 -- and perhaps as many as 80,000 -- current and former Nitro residents.In October, mediation failed to produce any settlement.Dioxin has been linked to cancer, birth defects, learning disabilities, endometriosis, infertility and suppressed immune functions. The chemical builds up in tissue over time, meaning that even a small exposure can accumulate to dangerous levels.One plaintiff, who requested anonymity because he was advised not to discuss the case, told the Gazette Tuesday that the judges holding the mediation said if the case doesn't settle it could last another seven years.Another plaintiff said he was told to be available to attend the mediation three or four days this week. The trial was originally set to begin in September. However, Putnam Circuit Judge O.C. Spaulding had to step down after being diagnosed with Lou Gehrig's disease. The state Supreme Court appointed Mercer Circuit Judge Derek Swope to hear the case. He upheld all of Spaulding's prior rulings and rescheduled the trial for January. On Aug. 22, Spaulding refused another effort by Monsanto lawyers Charles Love and Robert Hogan to block trial of the medical monitoring claims on a class-action basis, a move that would have forced thousands of residents to file individual cases. However, Spaulding previously had ruled that residents could not sue collectively to seek remediation of homes they allege are contaminated with dioxin.Swope was among the judges who led the mediation sessions in July that produced a $35 million settlement in a case against Massey Energy over alleged contamination of drinking water with coal slurry pollution in Mingo County.Reach Kate White at firstname.lastname@example.com or 304-348-1723.

The aim of this TakePart series is to show that wrong convictions are not restricted to innocent defendants who are falsely found guilty. Mandatory minimum sentencing policies are piling years of unwarranted penitentiary time on first-time, nonviolent offenders. Prosecutorial manipulation of jailhouse informers routinely hangs truth and justice upon the words of a single snitch. America's broken justice system is cruel and unusual by the standards of the developed world. It needs to be fixed.
"Families against what?"
When I started Families Against Mandatory Minimums (FAMM) in 1991, I got that question a lot. Few people knew what mandatory minimums were. In fact, it seemed that the only people aware of them were the politicians who voted for them and the individuals who were sentenced to them. I set about to change that. For the past two decades, I have dedicated my life to educating as many people as I could about the stupidity and cruelty of mandatory minimum sentencing laws.
The first person I educated was myself. I knew nothing about mandatory sentencing laws, prison or criminal justice issues until my brother was arrested for cultivating marijuana in 1990. He was pretty much treading water with his life when he and two friends decided to grow marijuana in a garage. One of the friends was an electrician; so he set up the grow lights, and they proceeded to fit as many small garden pots as possible into the garage space with marijuana seeds in each—365 in all.
When the marijuana plants were about six inches tall, one of the friends decided to show a neighbor what they were doing. The neighbor surveyed the garage full of marijuana seedlings and promptly called the police. My brother's two friends were arrested and immediately turned in my brother. In exchange for their cooperation, they each received probation—even though one of them had been to prison in California for a drug offense.
My brother's case is small potatoes in many ways; yet it illustrates much of what's wrong with our sentencing policies. First and foremost: Why was my brother's case prosecuted in the federal system? The offense took place in a garage in Washington State. He didn't cross state lines; he didn't sell drugs to a federal informant (he didn't sell any!); he didn't launder money; there was no logical reason for the federal government to pick up my brother's petty marijuana growing attempt.
My brother decided he could not live with himself if he destroyed someone else's life just to save his. I respected his decision, and I'm glad he made it even though it meant he had to spend five years in prison.
The only explanation that makes sense is that prosecutors knew he would do more time in federal prison than in state prison. This is commonly referred to as "jurisdiction shopping." In the 21 years I've been running FAMM, I've seen it carried out repeatedly. Small-fry drug offenders are routinely prosecuted in the federal system and end up serving many years in prison.
My brother's case also illustrates the absurdity of basing sentences on drug weight. When he was arrested, each marijuana plant weighed less than an ounce. Yet, mandatory minimum sentencing laws treat each plant as if it weighs one kilo (2.2 pounds), regardless of its actual size. So my brother was sentenced for growing 365 kilos (803 pounds) of marijuana! Based on the plant count and weight, my brother received a sentence of five years in federal prison without parole.
The prosecutor told my brother there was only one way to avoid that sentence—snitch on someone else. At the time, I was horrified by the thought of my brother going to prison for five years. I'm not proud to admit that I begged him to consider informing on someone else. He considered it. He knew other people, longtime friends in some cases, who had been growing marijuana for years. But he also knew that if he turned them in, they would be subjected to the same madness he was going through, and their families would be left in shambles.
My brother decided he could not live with himself if he destroyed someone else's life just to save his. I respected his decision, and I'm glad he made it even though it meant he had to spend five years in prison. But my initial reaction to the snitching-option makes me understand why people choose it, especially when facing mandatory sentences of ten or 20 years or life in prison.
That's when I really learned about mandatory minimum sentencing laws. Since 1986, federal drug offenses have carried mandatory sentences of five or ten years in prison, based primarily on the weight of the drug. Those penalties are doubled if the defendant had a prior conviction. The only way to avoid those stiff sentences is to cooperate with the government and give it information that it feels is valuable (mostly turning in another drug offender). If, and only if, the government thinks you've been helpful, it will grant a motion that allows the judge to give you a sentence lower than the mandatory minimum sentence.
When my brother was sentenced, the federal judge looked at him and said, "I do not want to give you this sentence but my hands are tied by Congress." What the judge meant was that the mandatory drug sentencing laws Congress passed in 1986 forced him to give my brother a five-year sentence. Because my brother had not cooperated, the government did not file a motion that would have allowed the judge to sentence him to less than five years. In court, the judge railed against mandatory minimum sentences—and my eyes were opened.
Less than a year later, I started FAMM. During the past two decades, we have educated thousands of people about America's sentencing laws. We have also tweaked those laws in Congress, at the U.S. Sentencing Commission, in State Houses, and at the Supreme Court—enough to impact the lives of at least 175,000 people facing or serving mandatory sentences.
While I'm gratified by FAMM's success and leadership role in pushing back against these stupid sentencing laws, I know there is so much more to be done. Elected officials at the state and federal level need to hear from all of us who believe that justice cannot be meted out by one-size-fits-all sentences.
You can tell members of the U.S. Senate and House Judiciary Committees that you want them to introduce legislation to repeal mandatory minimum drug laws.
I'm convinced the momentum has shifted in our favor, but we need to keep the pressure on to ensure that thousands more don't learn about mandatory minimum sentences the hard way—like my brother and I did.
Aside from prison, what are some other ways to address America's vast appetite for illegal drugs and prescription medications? Suggest your solutions in COMMENTS.

Restaurant Service: Celebrity Summit Cruise Review by biggydave
Overall Member Rating
Restaurant Service
Destination: Bermuda
Embarkation: Bayonne (Cape Liberty)
We noted the lack of service in all dining restaurants. The wait staff was under staffed and over worked.
We sailed Aqua class so we ate in the BLU restaurant which is reserved for aqua class. Our waiter was serving 18 to 20 people at each seating. Far too many for good service. We found the same applied to the Cosmopolitan Restaurant when ate there for lunch, and the Waterfall Café Buffet restaurant on the 10th deck.
Never did we have our water glasses refilled without asking for water and then it was a long wait. Never did they offer coffee, you had to ask for it and then wait a long time. Never a refill offered on their shot glass sized coffee cups. On two occasion in BLU we left before we received our deserts because the wait had surpassed 20 More minutes and we wanted to make the nightly show. In BLU for breakfast your waiter was pot luck, and I ordered my breakfast and when it arrived it was not my order. I reordered and waited 35 minutes without receiving my breakfast. We finally left and went up to the 10th desk to the Waterfall Café and ate.
We have achieved the Elite status with Celebrity which has many Perks IE, Free dry cleaning and laundry, among other things. We will most likely not sail with Celebrity in the future because of our experiences with this last cruise. Their cut backs were very apparent and not for the good of the client cruiser. We paid a lot of money for our cabin #1133 and Aqua Class, save your money Aqua Class is not worth it.

Cabin Stewarts were excellent, they did a great job. Cabin 1133 is located on the back of the ship overlooking the wake and the BAR on the 10th deck. Cabin 1133 in on the port side which is the smoking side of the ship. Smoke from people on deck 10 would rise and , at times you could not sit on your own veranda because of the rising smoke. db..

Cash email services are programs are paying for reading e-mails from part of cent to more from an euro and for filling various offers of other companies. Also they will pay for referring friends
Paid Email Services
Although the Web is undoubtedly the quickest and the simplest means of communication of today, it may not always be the safest . It is important to note that although certain existing (free) paid email services offer great accessibility and competitive GUI graphical user interface features, they may actually be weak in areas such as account security and message privacy.
In order to ensure that you will also benefit from advanced email security options apart from the regular features, it is crucial to only stick with solid, dependable email services powered and managed by IT professionals with great experience in data security. With the support of so plenty of new, state-of-the-art IT technologies that have become obtainable over the last few years, the email services of today are very varied and account for a multitude of features such as fast message delivery (promptitude of service), improved accessibility, recall email options and user-friendly interface.
Paid email services that include such facilities are nowadays very popular both among home users and a wide range of businesses in search of easy, fast and affordable means of communication. However, what plenty of categories of users still dont realize is that not all email services that account for the previously mentioned features are also 100 percent reliable nor can guarantee for message privacy and other crucial Web security issues. High-quality data protection solutions and guaranteed privacy respecting policies are by far the most important features you should check for when choosing an paid email service-offering company.
Home users and organization members who want to ensure the integrity and confidentiality of their information transmitted via email should either opt for popular, reputed free email services (respect a series of standard safety regulations) or paid email services (include reliable, high-quality data protection features in the regular package in exchange for a periodical fee). In order to ensure that the data you send or get via email is properly protected, you can opt for secure email services with a safety net. These types of email services are solid and dependable, guaranteeing users integrity, safety and confidentiality for the messages they send or get online. Without competitive data protection features, the regular email is an very fragile and vulnerable data transport mechanism and an inappropriate device for users who want to transmit personal, confidential information over the Web.
Only a secure email that respects the latest email privacy policies can guarantee users that their sent or received messages are managed in a completely safe environment. Once you have found a company that provides competitive secure email services, you should also check if its offer includes a series of effective accessibility options. Apart from email privacy, high-quality paid email services should include features such as recall email (offers users the possibility to recall delete or edit unopened emails; this option is very useful in the event of a misaddressed email message), notification that your email message has arrived safely, notification when your message is being read by the recipient, possibility to attach large files to each email message and fast message delivery, to name only a few.
Remember to pick carefully among the multitude of paid email services out there and make sure that the email services of your choice corroborate convenience with advanced data security measures.

BRISTOL, R.I. – Members of the campus community and the general public are invited to join students, faculty and staff from Roger Williams University and the Roger Williams University School of Law at two Veterans Day remembrance ceremonies on Monday, Nov. 12.
At 11 a.m., at the University Flagpole near the Administration Building on the University's Bristol campus at One Old Ferry Road, RWU's Reserve Officer Training Corps Cadets will lead a ceremony to honor those who have fought in past wars as well as those currently serving in the military.
The ceremony will have an emphasis on honoring women in the military. Chief Master Sergeant Lori A. Ashness, the first female selected as First Sergeant for the 143rd Airlift Wing Support Group, will serve as honorable speaker. Guests will have the opportunity to place carnations at the base of a wreath that honors the memory of those in the military.
In a separate ceremony starting at 3:15 p.m. near the School of Law, U.S. Senators Jack Reed and Sheldon Whitehouse, as well as Captain Michael Jolin of the Rhode Island National Guard, will join RWU President Donald Farish, RWU Law Dean David Logan and members of the law school community in rededicating a memorial tree that honors fallen alumnus and veteran Nathan J. Schuldheiss '05L. The special agent from the U.S. Air Force Office of Special Investigations was killed in Iraq in November 2007.
A reception will follow inside the law school building where "Veterans of Valor," a photo collection featuring the school's veteran community, will be unveiled. The event, co-sponsored by the Military Law Society, will begin at 3:45 on the Second Floor Atrium at the School of Law.
All Veterans Day events at Roger Williams are open to the public with no registration or RSVP required.

Dear beloved pets,
The dishes with the paw print are yours and contain your food. The other
dishes are mine and contain my food. Please note, placing a paw print in
the middle of my plate of food does not stake a claim for it becoming
your food and dish, nor do I find that aesthetically pleasing in the
The stairway was not designed by NASCAR and is not a racetrack. Beating
me to the bottom is not the object. Tripping me doesn't help because I
fall faster than you can run.
I cannot buy anything bigger than a king sized bed. I am very sorry
about this. Do not think I will continue sleeping on the couch to ensure
your comfort. Dogs and cats can actually curl up in a ball when they
sleep. It is not necessary to sleep perpendicular to each other
stretched out to the fullest extent possible.
I also know that sticking tails straight out and having tongues hanging
out the other end to maximize space is nothing but sarcasm. For the
last time, there is not a secret exit from the bathroom. If by some
miracle I beat you there and manage to get the door shut, it is not
necessary to claw, whine, meow, try to turn the knob or get your paw
under the edge and try to pull the door open. I must exit
through the same door I entered. Also, I have been using the bathroom
for years -- canine or feline attendance is not required. The proper
order is kiss me, then go smell the other dog or cat's butt. I cannot
stress this enough!
To pacify you, my dear pets, I have posted the following message on our
front door:
To All Non-Pet Owners Who Visit and Like to Complain About Our Pets:
1. They live here. You don't.
2. If you don't want their hair on your clothes, stay off the furniture
(that's why they call it "fur"niture.)
3. I like my pets a lot better than I like most people.
4. To you, it's an animal. To me, he/she is a beloved member of the
family who just happens to be short, hairy, walks on all fours and
doesn't speak clearly.
Remember: In many ways, dogs and cats are better than kids because they:
1. Eat less
2. Don't ask for money all the time
3. Are easier to train
4. Normally come when called
5. Want to be seen with you in public
6. Never ask to drive the car
7. Don't hang out with weird friends
8. Don't smoke or drink
9. Don't have to buy the latest fashions
10. Are easily entertained
11. Don't need a "gazillion" dollars for college.
And finally,
12. If they get pregnant, you can sell their children.
Each player needs to tell seven random facts about themselves. Tagged dogs must post the rules in their diary and their 7 facts. Then choose 7 pups to tag and list their names. Let them know by pmail or rosette that they have been tagged and to read your diary for the instructions on how to play
7 facts about me.....
1. I love to bark at everyone/everything out the window.
2. I itch a lot...skin allergies.
3. I don't have fleas...anymore...
4. I love a rubdown before nite nite time.
5. I am not a people person, just to my mommy, everyone else I will look just don't touch..unless i come to you.
6. I like almost all dogs, except the pitbull that didn't ask permission to come into my yard, he knows better now.

Daily Beast Writer: Got White Guilt Over Ferguson? Oppose Voter ID Laws!
With the streets of Ferguson now quiet and the body of Michael Brown laid to rest, you could count on our friends at the Daily Beast to find fresh ways to exploit the tragic episode for political ends.
Witness contributor Jacob Lupfer's prescription for how white Americans should respond to the shooting death of the Missouri teenager: oppose efforts to tighten voter ID laws:
When a white police officer shot and killed an unarmed black teenager in Ferguson, Missouri, this month, a community took to the streets in protest. In response, people all over the world began to think seriously about issues of race in policing, political representation, and the persistent reality of racial prejudice in our neighborhoods, our institutions, and in ourselves.
While the episode is first and foremost about a young man who did not deserve to die, the empathy and palpable solidarity that have arisen in Ferguson's wake is a happy development. Of course, those who need their racial consciousness awakened the most have predictably settled on blaming the victim. Yet many whites are indeed concerned about Ferguson, and are looking for ways to act.
So here's one obvious thing these white people can do to help the black community: Oppose voter suppression in the form of voter ID laws.
The disputed 2000 presidential election, the relatively close margins of subsequent elections, and thoroughgoing political polarization have led to an uptick in concern about election administration. In 2004, Bush-Cheney voters were much likelier to believe their vote was counted accurately. In 2008 and especially in 2012, GOP voters reported much less confidence in the vote.
These concerns played right into the hands of Republican activists and state legislators, who have been actively promoting and enacting voter identification laws.
Ostensibly about preserving the integrity of the electoral process, voter ID laws are a particularly insidious form of racial discrimination. Disenfranchising qualified, Democratic-leaning black voters is both the means and the end.
Legislation differs by state, but generally these laws require voters to present a government-issued photo ID. It turns out that millions of Americans do not have a current, government-issued photo ID. This group is disproportionately drawn from ethic minorities, senior citizens, young voters, disabled people, and the working poor. Even a study that voter ID proponents frequently cite because it minimizes the problem readily admits that that "the adverse effects fall disproportionately on women, African-Americans, and Democrats."
Without making overwrought analogies to Jim Crow, sensible people of good will on both sides of the aisle should agree that voter ID laws are cynical, deplorable tactics. It is time to wage campaigns based on competing ideas, values, and proposals. Elections should be about turnout, not suppression.
Honest Republicans will admit that their only justification is a win-at-all-costs attitude in which legitimate electors turned away are simply collateral damage. A conservative friend of mine, after being presented with the facts about the nonexistent problem of voter impersonation, conceded the point about the disproportionate impact of voter ID laws on the urban poor. "Why can't we just phase in these laws over a 10-year period?" my friend asked.
The answer is simple. The GOP doesn't need to suppress voters in 2024. It needs to suppress them today.
Nowhere, of course, did Lupfer mention that polling data shows even majorities of Democrats and African-Americans approve of requiring ID for voting. From a May 16 article at TheHill.com:
Seven in 10 registered voters are in favor of identification laws in order to root out fraud at the ballot box, according to a Fox News poll released this week.
The survey found majority support in every major demographic, including black voters and Democrats.
The survey found majorities of every demographic support the law. Ninety-one percent of Republicans offer support, and 66 percent of independents feel the same.
Fifty-five percent of Democrats support the laws, while 43 percent oppose them.
Opposition to the laws is highest among black respondents, but even there a bare majority, 51 percent, support them. Forty-six percent of African Americans oppose the laws.
On his personal website, Mr. Lupfer confessed that he "sat out the 2012 election" and is now "not even registered to vote." It also seems incredibly odd for him to lecture on voter ID laws as some evil partisan scheme when he insists on his website that though he's "not without opinions... they aren't as important to me as they once were."
If that's the case, you'd hate to see what sort of invective he'd have about voter ID if he wrote this a few years back.

The Public Defender Clinic is Cooley's blended clinic. While working for the Washtenaw County Public Defender's office students are allowed to practice law under Michigan Court Rule 8.120. This court rule enables students to appear in court under the supervision of a state bar member and with the approval of the judge. Students handle a wide variety of defense work including misdemeanors and felonies.
Please see the Washtenaw County Office of Public Defender website at http://www.ewashtenaw.org/government/departments/public_defender.
If you have questions regarding the Public Defender Clinic, contact Professor Cavanaugh at [email protected].
About the Program
The Public Defender Clinic is a unique opportunity for Cooley students to represent real clients. It is an extraordinary opportunity. As an extern, you will have the chance to experience the criminal defense of indigent persons in a "hands on" environment. You will:
- Interview, counsel, and represent indigent defendants.
- Engage in the practice of law under the supervision of experienced attorneys.
- Have an opportunity to appear in court frequently.
- Work with a highly skilled group of attorneys who have been trained by the Thomas M. Cooley clinic faculty to be outstanding supervisors and mentors.

At the beginning of the term, you will be expected to attend an intensive orientation class. The purpose of this orientation is to familiarize you with the procedures and basic legal issues which you will face as you deal with our clients. This is a good way to "come up to speed" very quickly so you can begin your clinical experience as quickly as possible.
Except for extraordinary circumstances, students who withdraw from the externship after Friday of the first week of the first term will earn an "F" for the class for that term.

PARKING INFORMATION l LIVE STATS l LIVE VIDEO l UTD Soccer Central l ASC Championship Central
MARSHALL, Texas – Continuing their tradition of excellence, the East Texas Baptist University women's soccer team will be making their third straight appearance, and fourth in the last five years, in the American Southwest Conference tournament. This will be ETBU's eighth trip overall, playing in 2001, 2004, 2005, 2006, 2009, 2011 and 2012.
In their most recent contest, a 2-1 victory in overtime over Texas-Tyler, Christina Salas had a career high 17 saves, and a Paola Bear golden goal in the 99th minute gave them the victory and the number five seed in the ASC tournament. It was also the first victory by ETBU over UT-Tyler since 2005.
"This win was probably better than most," said head coach Paul Grant. "To be able to knock off the fifth ranked team in the region at their place, I don't think it could end in a better way. I think this win will carry over to the conference tournament."
On the season, Bear, Christina Robles and Natalie Torres all scored four goals this season to lead the team in scoring and Salas played the most minutes in goal, making 68 saves and posting a 1.49 GAA
ETBU was defeated in the quarterfinal round 2-0 by Mississippi College in last year's tournament. Their opponent in their quarterfinal playoff game on Thursday at 11 a. m., will be none other than the Texas-Tyler team they just faced. Texas-Tyler's record this season was 11-5 overall and 6-4 in the ASC. This will be the first meeting between these two teams in the playoffs.
Chestley Strother was the leading goal scorer for Texas-Tyler this season with seven and Macy Hurley started all 16 games in goal, making 55 saves and posting a 0.77 GAA.
When asked about what the playoff appearance means for the program, Grant replied: "I think we have set something that is expected. Getting in the tournament is nice, but winning a game is even nicer. Confidence is high, the ladies feel good about things and you go out and get a win on Thursday and take it from there."
The winner of the ETBU-Tyler game will face top-seeded and 10-time defending tournament champion Hardin-Simmons on Friday at 11 a. m. The championship game is scheduled for Sunday.
TICKETS: Tickets for the ASC Women's Soccer Championship Tournament are $7 for adults, $5 for college students and $3 for students ages 6-18. Official tournament long-sleeved t-shirts are $15

Have a Tax Question? Ask a Tax Expert
If you deduct the business expenses on your personal return, you will probably be subject to limitations on you Schedule A. However, if you can set-up a company that has a business purpose (other than just deducting your business expenses) you would be able to deduct expenses such as these.
You could have a company such as an advisory company. You would need to find a way to book income to offset the expenses. A company shouldn't continue to loose money year after year or it may start looking suspect. Would the LLC's consider paying you an outright consulting fee that diminishes your K-1 returns?
Please let me know if you have any further questions. My firm services many clients that have similar circumstances such as yours.
My office is located in Southern California. We have clients throughout the United States. It would be great to speak with you. My contact information is as follows:

text: I was thinking back to a few cars that I helped build to run at Willow Springs and we had diff overheating issues with them until coolers were installed. I figured since the V diff holds less than two quarts of fluid that the cooler and the added amount of fluid might help it live a little longer. I did the install in a couple of evenings this weekend. The only hard part was making the fittings for the drain and fill plugs so that feed and return lines could be attached. I mounted the pump and a filter housing in the trunk and the cooler under the trunk all plumbed with -06 AN braided line. I took a couple of pics when I was almost finished with the install.

Alana Beard scored 30 points in her final game at Cameron Indoor Stadium and freshman Brittany Hunter added 12 after halftime Tuesday to lift the Blue Devils past Marquette 76-67 in the second round of the Mideast Regional.
Monique Currie scored 15 first-half points for the top-seeded Blue Devils (29-3), who have won 12 straight games. Duke next faces No. 5 seed Louisiana Tech, which beat fourth-seeded Texas Tech 81-64 on Monday.
Kelly Schwerman had 16 points to lead the ninth-seeded Golden Eagles (22-10), while Christina Quaye added 15.
The Blue Devils shot 52 percent, but committed a season-high 26 turnovers that led to 26 points for the Golden Eagles. Duke led by as many as 16 in the second half, but struggled to put Marquette away.
"When we did take care of the ball, I thought we got great looks," Duke coach Gail Goestenkors said. "It was almost like we either turned it over or scored."
On the day when Connecticut's Diana Taurasi won the Naismith award as college basketball's top player, Beard went 11-for-17 from the field and had seven rebounds, five assists, three blocks and two steals in 39 minutes.
She got plenty of help from Hunter, a 6-foot-3 center who has battled knee trouble since suffering a torn right lateral meniscus in November. Hunter - who was averaging 8.3 points and five rebounds - missed the Blue Devils' first-round rout of Northwestern State.
In the two weeks leading up to the tournament, Hunter practiced just once, and her right knee swelled badly. But she made it through Monday's practice, and Goestenkors went to her with 17:51 left in the game.
Hunter immediately grabbed a rebound on a missed free throw by Christina Quaye.
"I really didn't know what I was going to do," she said. "I finally came in and rebounded. It felt like, 'I'm back."'
Hunter went 6-for-8 from the floor and grabbed six rebounds in 13 minutes. She and Beard combined for 28 of Duke's 37 points after halftime.
"Brittany's always ready to play," Beard said. "I don't know how someone can sit out a week and come in and just go 6-for-8. That's pretty impressive."
Duke led 39-28 at halftime, but the Golden Eagles chopped the deficit to seven early in the second half. Hunter answered with a jumper from the left corner off a feed from Beard, then followed with a putback for a 46-35 lead with 16:35 left.
She added two more baskets inside - a putback and a layup off a feed from Currie - for a 50-40 lead. She also grabbed a rebound and found Beard on the fast break to give Duke its biggest lead at 59-43 with 9:57 left.
"She was in during a stretch where I thought we were being a little tentative with our defense and not protecting the paint," Marquette coach Terri Mitchell said. "She really gave them the spark that they needed in keeping it a double-figure game."
The Blue Devils might have pushed the margin higher, but they struggled protecting the ball against Marquette's trapping zone and man defenses. At one point, the Blue Devils committed five straight turnovers.
On the fifth, a bad pass from Beard to Iciss Tillis with 2:58 left, Goestenkors put both hands on her head in frustration.
"We usually take good care of the basketball," she said. "I'm very disappointed with the poise we had on the offensive end."
Marquette struggled to take advantage, scoring just two points during that two-minute stretch. The Golden Eagles got no closer than seven points in the final minutes, and Beard and Lindsey Harding combined to go 6-for-6 at the line to seal it.

Terrible news for a lot of people yesterday: Strange Chemistry (who did my Emilie and the Hollow World and Emilie and the Sky World books) has shut down. None of the upcoming books will be published, and there's not word yet on what's going to happen with the books that were already out. (Basically if you wanted any of the Strange Chemistry titles, now would be a good time to get them, and the authors would really appreciate it.)
Here's the formal notice.
Here's the list of books Strange Chemistry published. (The "coming soon" section won't be published.)
The mystery line, Exhibit A Books, was also cancelled.
This is really depressing news. I've had nine total publishers (eighteen counting foreign language reprints) and this is the fourth one shot out from under me. A lot of young authors had their books cancelled, and people lost jobs, so it's always a miserable situation when this happens.

::sighs:: Everything is so ephemeral in this industry!
Yeah, I feel the most sorry for the debut authors. I can imagine how awful it feels.
Yes, I read that post by one of the debut authors, and my heart really goes out to her. I hope they find new homes for their books!
I am so, so sorry to hear about this. :(
Aww, I'm so sorry, for you and every other author who was published or about to be by this house.
Thanks :) Yes, it's really most awful for the debut authors, or for the people who were finishing their first trilogy.
Publishers collapse
Yeah, this happened to my when my Aero Rangers series were being prepared for publication. Fortunately, in my case NONE of the titles actually saw the light, so I'm not stuck with a 6 book series that's been truly orphaned by the first title or two being published. Eventually I'll find a new publisher for my stuff. But the Emilie stories, being two books in, how the heck are you gonna sell that to another publisher? (Unless they sell really-really well) Given your (Martha's) excellent reputation and track record, I suppose she might be able to purchas all the unsold copies, then self publish the whole series, but Geez, what a pain in the butt. I certainly wouldn't have the energy to do it.
Re: Publishers collapse
Yeah, I'm not interested in self-publishing. I hope another publisher will pick up the line for everybody's sake.
I am so very sorry to learn about this. I hope that you can get your work picked up elsewhere (quickly), and find a more stable publisher.
Thanks. :)
Very sorry to hear this!
Oh Gods, not again... :( You've been through enough hell with publishers already! And Strange Chemistry published a lot of other amazing authors, too. It's a huge loss to both writers and readers.
(Also, on a far more trivial scale, a loss to my budget, as I now have to buy all the SC books I ever wanted to read right now, or at least the ones from series I'm midway through already...)
(Also, on a far more trivial scale, a loss to my budget, as I now have to buy all the SC books I ever wanted to read right now, or at least the ones from series I'm midway through already...)
Thanks. Yes, it was a great line, and there would have been so many more good books.
I'm very sorry to hear that :( I went and bought the two Emilie books while I still have the chance.
Oh, sad! I'm so sorry to hear about this.
Ugh, that's awful news - I'm sorry. It finally poked me into buying the second Emilie book though, and I also preordered the first Raksura collection while I was at it!
Thanks :) and thanks for preordering!
Very sorry to hear this! Do you know anything about the continuing availablity of the e-books?
Thanks :) I don't know really anything at this point. The parent publisher Angry Robot should keep the books available for at least a while.
Oh no!
Oh no! That sucks! :(
Re: Oh no!
Yeah, it really does.
I'm sorry to hear that. I really like the Emilie books and would like to see more of them.
I really hate to hear this. Is there any chance Angry Robot will pick up some of the Strange Chemistry titles?
Thanks :) At this point it doesn't sound like it.
Well darn. I bought the second Emilie book a couple of weeks ago but I'd love to see you write and publish more of of this series. Good luck finding a new, more stable press.
This is really sad to hear. :( The Emilie books were some of my more enjoyable reads recently.
Thank you :) Glad you enjoyed them!
Ugh, not AGAIN! I'm so sorry.
Thanks. :) Yeah, it sucks.
This is terrible! Maybe another publisher will step into the breach.
Thanks :) Yeah, I hope so. It's a really good line.
I've had three publishers and all three closed down. Sending heart hugs,
Oh man, that totally sucks. :-(
Yeah, it really does.
I'm really sorry Martha, that's awful.
Re: Arrrrrrgh!
Thanks, Kelly :)
I hadn't picked up Emile and the Sky World yet, so I've done that now. I'm sorry to hear about another press dying under you :(
Thank you. :)
Really unhappy news for all concerned. Ran out and bought the second Emilie book while I still could...
Thank you! Yeah, they're basically going to sell what's left in the warehouse, and then both books will be out of print. It's very depressing.

Ladies: How to Poop Like a Ninja!!
The ladies of Total Sorority Move have come up with a guide for one of the most mysterious things in the world. I am also pretty positive that girls don't poop, but if you do have to do the doo, here are a few tips:
Three's Company
The best way to escape blame is to blame someone else, and that's easily the best way to escape getting caught. Every time you have company over, go to the restroom IMMEDIATELY after your guest. You'll easily be able to pass off any blame on your unsuspecting target.
Public Restrooms Are Your Friend
I know. I KNOW. They're gross and you can get AIDS from toilet seats, right? Well, that's a risk you're going to have to take. If you wouldn't rather get AIDS than let a nearby male know there's even a chance of you pooping, you deserve to get caught.
Always Go After Him
The time he's least likely to go to the restroom is right after he's already been. Your nose will regret this decision immediately, but your dignity will not. Power through the pain, and realize that whatever torment you're going through, nothing could be worse than the horror on his face when he realizes that yes, his girlfriend actually poops.

While i have read the highlight is the home made pasta made on the premises daily, the pre-made sauces and the wok action by the unconvincingly looking line chefs finally said to me, skip it.
However looking at the pizzas coming out from the oven, that looked like a different story.
Another highlight of this concept restaurant is the pot of basil where you pluck off as required. In the middle of the restaurant there is a small glasshouse that probably has a good 50 pots of herbs for your consumption.
The thin crust pizza laced with prosciutto and parmesan did its job in satisfying our late afternoon hunger. Made with an industrial oven, you don't get any smokiness from a wood fire pizza oven. The pizza was AUD18 i think.
After sitting at home from Christmas right through to New Year because of the rain, we were happy it was hot and sunny in Gold Coast. That meant quenching your thirst with some tap beers. Your choice of a light Italian Peroni or a darker James Squire.
Everything is self serve and that gives you a bit of flexibility to order as little as you want opposed to when you have a waiter/waitress taking your order. The whole place is relaxed, i mean its after all in Gold Coast and you are meant to be relaxed. I wonder how the outlet in the Brisbane CBD tastes like, lets see if i return.
Address and contact details:
Gold Coast
Phone: 07 5538 8967
Opening hours: From Sunday - Thursday 11 am to 11pm, Friday - Saturday 11 am to 12 midnight.
Where: In Soul Retail, Cavill Avenue, Surfers Paradise.
We take bookings for groups of 8 or more every day.
Verdict: 3.5 stars out of 5 stars. Don't expect it to wow your palate but it does its job if you happen to be in Gold Coast and do not want to resort to Hungry Jacks or McDonalds.

Most Likely to Succeed
During a Beijing layover in 1996, Northwest flight attendant Jeremy Shepherd bought a set of pearls for about $25. When a U.S. appraiser valued the pearls at $600, Shepherd emptied his bank account, returned to China, and bought 200 strands to sell on eBay. He now sells $5 million in jewelry a year through Santa Monica-based Pearl Paradise. Buying in bulk and with cash, Shepherd negotiates cheap prices with pearl farmers, so the firm can sell the jewelry at an 80% discount from retail.

Former U.S. wrestling star The Ultimate Warrior dies at 54: WWE
(Reuters) - The Ultimate Warrior, one of U.S. professional wrestling's most celebrated names, has died at the age of 54, days after being inducted into the World Wrestling Entertainment Inc Hall of Fame, the company said late on Tuesday.
"WWE is shocked and deeply saddened to learn of the passing of one of the most iconic WWE Superstars ever, The Ultimate Warrior," the Stamford, Connecticut-based company said on its website.
The Ultimate Warrior, whose given name was James Hellwig, began his WWE career in 1987 and rose to become one of the biggest stars in WWE history, the company said, highlighting an "epic encounter" in which he defeated Hulk Hogan at WrestleMania VI to become a WWE Champion.
The cause of his death was not given. He was added to the Hall of Fame on April 5.
"We are grateful that just days ago, Warrior had the opportunity to take his rightful place in the WWE Hall of Fame and was also able to appear at WrestleMania 30 and Monday Night Raw to address his legions of fans," World Wrestling Entertainment said.
The 6-foot, 2-inch tall, 280-pound (127 kg) wrestler commanded the ring in his signature neon garb and long, blond hair, and face paint, WWE said.
His family could not immediately be reached, and an email sent through his website was not immediately answered.
In a statement on his website peppered with sarcasm, Hellwig expounded on philosophy and funneling energy from the ring into writing, motivational speaking, and his family life after retiring in the late 1990s.
"Ultimate Warrior ran because I was running him. He was intense because I already was. Whatever I am doing - wrestling, writing, working out, speaking, even weaving pot holders - I am going to do it with action and intensity," Hellwig wrote. Continued...

Judge, Taylor earn top CSAA football honors
The 10 football coaches of the Central State Activities Association (CSAA) wasted no time on deciding the best of the conference.
The regular season ended Friday and coaches convened Saturday to vote. In all, 13 combined Central Montcalm Hornets (2-7) and Lakeview Wildcats (5-4) earned league honors.
Central Montcalm's Jesse Judge and Lakeview's Jared Taylor earned first-team honors.
Taylor — a three-year varsity player — was named with an at-large honor. He rushed for 835 yards on 137 carries with nine touchdowns. He intercepted two passes and returned both kickoffs and punts (13.1 average).
"I thought he had a great year offensively, but it was a combination of all the things he did to earn the at-large honor," Lakeview coach Guenther Mittelstaedt said. "He was on the field a lot. He was much improved over last year and had a great year in the offensive backfield."
Earning first-team honors for Central Montcalm as defensive end was senior Jesse Judge. He made 64 tackles, had 2.5 sacks, blocked two field goals and recovered one punt.
"He is very deserving. He is a three-year varsity starter and was close to leading our team in tackles," Hornets coach Marty James said. "He was a force for us defensively and has been for three years. He was one of the top vote getters in the league."
Judge also caught 26 passes for 370 yards on the offensive side.
The Wildcats had four players earn second-team honors.
Senior Koty Burgess earned the honor as an offensive linemen.
"He was our most solid blocker on the offensive line," Mittelstaedt said. "He has been a three-year starter for us and improved a lot from last year. He was injured the last two games and I think that may have cost him a spot on the first team."
Junior Garret Cavendish earned his spot as a running back. Cavendish rushed for 607 yards on 116 carries. He scored nine touchdowns and caught eight passes for 101 yards.
"He had a great year for a junior. He is a very hard runner," Mittelstaedt said. "He was our second leading rusher and also played defense, but earned his honor offensively."
Senior Gus Ward made the squad as a defensive linemen. He made 42 tackles, recovered two fumbles and blocked one punt, which he returned 43 yards for a score.
"He was just a very solid defensive end for us," Mittelstaedt said of Ward. "He was also a very good leader."
Senior Cory Hamlin earned the honor as a linebacker. He was the team's second leading tackler with 62 and recovered one fumble.
"He was much improved from last year and our second leading tackler this year," Mittelstaedt said. "He was an outstanding leader and captain."
Earning second team honors for the Hornets were sophomore quarterback Keagan James and senior offensive linemen Terran Ellsworth.
James rushed for 1,134 yards on 183 carries and scored 11 touchdowns. Passing, he went 57-for-134 for 715 yards and seven touchdowns against eight interceptions.
"He had a great year for any quarterback. I've never coached a quarterback that has reached 1,000 yards," James said. "He ran the ball very well. He learned a lot about throwing the ball. He has a lot of growing to do, but the future is bright for him."
Ellsworth was a center, after playing tackle as a junior.
"I'm going to guess about half of our 2,200 yards rushing came on our mid-line option. Obviously, our center is a huge part of that," James said. "He was a tackle and made the move this year. We never took a snap under center and I don't think we had many bad snaps where we lost the ball all year."
Lakeview honorable mentions went to junior Shawn Lindsey, senior Nate Hayward and junior Terry Grieser.
Central Montcalm honorable mentions went to senior Lucas Emmons and junior Cory Kindlle.
CSAA Coach of the Year honors went to Reed City's (9-0) Monty Price. Reed City, Big Rapids (8-1), Newaygo (7-2) and Chippewa Hills (6-3) all made the MHSAA football playoffs.

I wasn't going to annoy my hairy cat toy when the she was cutting the mattes out, I was just going to sniff her paws, and walk over her and get between the scissors and my hairy cat toy, and nuzzle her ears. The usual stuff.
I took a nap with my she as she likes when I do that, of course it helped that it was coolish and snuggling is always good when it is coolish. And my hairy cat toy cant figure out how to get on the bed, so its just her and me. My hairy cat toy even has steps and can't figure it out.
My hairy cat toy does have a name, she is Zoey, a special needs schnauzrish pup. I never really thought about the 'special-needs' part, I just really like swatting her and rolling under her when the giver of all treats gets ready to feed us. I sometimes stick my head right into her kibble bowl and chow down on HER kibble while she is eating it. She would like to get into mine, but it is put up too high.
The giver of all treats thinks I do a lot of good for her, I don't know that my hairy cat toy would always agree, but I am still here to meow about it, so maybe. We chase each other and sometimes try to play with each other's toys, and I always check on her and touch noses whenever she goes outside. I really hate it when she goes out and doesn't come back for a long time, then I will rub up against her and not even swat at her.
I never knew why I get fed at the same time as she does, but I eat my food in the back room and she has her food in the kitchen. Turns out she has her medications three times a day, and I finally figured out, that's when I get fed too! I am after all just a still pretty young kit.
Sometimes she starts acting funny, pacing and bouncing off walls and furniture, and then falls over on her side and starts to shake!!! I freaked the first time it happened (and every time after as well!). Feels like forever, but the shaking stops and my hairy cat toy gets up and slowly wanders into the kitchen, then the giver of all treats gives her some medicine to make her feel better and I get asked to come down off of whatever high up place I ran to. I sniff her from one end to the other to make sure she is still MY hairy cat toy.
I have only seen 5 seizures in nearly 6 months, so she doesn't have them often, but she has had 4 in the last 2 days. The giver of all treats says it will be okay, she'll find the right dose. I believe her cause, well, the giver of all treats has never been wrong about anything with me and my hairy cat toy.
I was recovering happily in my own home after getting surgery so there wouldn't be any more ME's , and had to purr at my girl as she rushed around getting my carrier (getting to be not too fond of that thing) my food, treats, the cat toy's meds and all HER stuff and the girl's stuff. After she went in and out of the apt several times, it was our turn. Seems there was a big nasty windy thing and she didnt want us to be swept away with it. But the 'safe haven' we went to, had three dogs that didnt know me and NO door to the room I was to be in.
I though was an excellent kitten, puuuuurrrrrrrrr, as I never once tried to get out of the room!!!! I hid under the bed until my girl came back and used to tinfoil litter box, and was a general all round good kitten.
We tried to leave the next day (Tuesday) but the girl drove and drove and there was all this long stuff in the road and stringy stuff too, so we went back for another day. When we finally got home, it was c-o-l-d and dark, but the girl said both my eyes and the cat toy's eyes could see in the dark. The girl on the other hand kept crashing into stuff, didnt SHE see it. Finally Friday the lights came on an it got warmer in here.
We stayed together and made it thru!
