On Monday night, the Mister and I decided it was time to give Nile, our 10-week-old Australian Shepard puppy who we have had for almost a month, a bath. We had spent the weekend in the Quad Cities visiting my parents and Tucker, the family's 7-year-old black Labrador Retriever who loves to stomp in and out of the kiddie pool filled with slightly murky water and play fetch through all the leaves, bushes, dirt and general yard trimmings.
Nile was exposed to a whole new world of big dog activities. Just like a younger sibling tries to keep up with the older one, Nile chased Tucker through the bushes in his attempt to get the deflated, old kick ball. He jumped off retaining walls and startled himself on his landings. He slowly approached the running hose, surprised when his paws and head got wet. He rolled around in the fallen leaves and ran through the weeds. All in all he didn't get too dirty. That is, until we were getting ready to head home.
Our dog is a curious puppy. As are all young creatures. We want to know how things work. Where things come from. Well, our little boy got a little too close to his Uncle Tucker in midstream and his head smelled it. The Mister wiped Nile's head with a little vinegar-water to get rid of the smell, but we knew the time had come.
We had to give Nile a bath.
So we decided to do it Monday night, since he was so exhausted Sunday from a fun-filled weekend of romping through the house with Tucker. We had it all planned out. We would take a before photograph of our puppy. You know, a "this is what he looked like," so we could have a "this is what he looks like now" shot. The Mister and I decided to give him his first bath in the utility sink in the basement. We thought it would work well since it has high sides, and it's off the ground preventing him from jumping down. We were armed with an ample amount of treats, a few towels and a bottle of doggy shampoo. And so we began.
Trying to be as nice as possible, I used a big, plastic cup to gently get him wet, and the Mister kept his attention by giving him treats. We quickly realized he was not happy. So we ditched the slow methodical approach and went with the quick method. We tag teamed it as best as possible. Washing, shampooing and rinsing as fast as we could. We didn't care about splashing water around the sink. We were soaked and on a mission. When I needed a second pair of hands, the Mister would give Nile a treat to distract then give the assist. But despite our best efforts, Nile was shaking like a leaf he had been chasing the day before.
We picked him up and wrapped him in a towel. We dried him off, hoping he was shaking because he was cold. We changed towels and held him in our arms as he shivered. We took him upstairs to play with his toys. He wanted nothing to do with them. Our baby boy was tired, and he was not happy with us. All we could do was coax him toward us by giving him treats, but soon he would turn away.
So just like any unhappy child who was tired and cranky, he went to bed. Pouting. Not happy. And not the least bit amused.
Fast forward nine hours later, he was still a little sleepy but a lot more happy. We may not be giving him a bath for a long time.
Maybe we can make the hose into a game and just rinse him off avoiding all future tantrums.

It's time to get out your winter gear and re-establish your winter protocols for calves.
"Although we're a few weeks away from implementing all of the winter protocols, temperatures are dropping fast and it's better to be ready than scramble at the last minute," advises Ann Hoskins, calf products coordinator for Vita Plus.
In the October 2012 Vita Plus Starting Strong Calf Care E-Newsletter, Hoskins discusses cold-weather preparations that help calves manage colder temperatures. She focuses on these four areas:
- Maternity and newborn pens
- Nutrition
- Bedding
- Calf jackets
Hoskins also reminds calf caregivers to do the following things during the colder months:
- Provide enough energy in the diet to maintain growth and performance.
- Slowly transition to the winter feeding program. Changing solids levels too quickly may cause calves to bloat or go off feed.
- Give calves access to fresh, clean, warm water starting at three days of age.
- Offer fresh starter daily at day 3.
- House calves in a clean, draft-free, dry and well-bedded environment.
- Bed calves with a 12-inch layer of long straw to allow nesting.
- Use calf jackets for calves younger than three weeks.
- Clean, sanitize and dry feeding equipment between consecutive feedings.

MATT Banahan says that it's crunch time for Bath as they look to continue their march towards silverware on all fronts.
The Rec side secured top seeding in the quarter-finals of the Amlin Challenge Cup with a 54-13 triumph over Bordeaux Bègles last Thursday, with Mike Ford's men set to take on Brive in April.
"We're coming to the business end of the season now – whatever's come before doesn't really matter and it's all about what happens between now and May," said Banahan.
"We want to be a company that are fighting on all fronts. If we can be in quarter-finals and semi-finals in everything, then we're moving forward as a club.
"(Against Bordeaux), we were able to go out there and produce a game of rugby that we wanted to play and hopefully the fans enjoyed it too.
"We put our foot on the gas and used it as an experience of keeping that momentum going for 80 minutes.
Bath go looking to build on their unbeaten start to their LV= Cup campaign when they host Cardiff Blues this weekend (kick-off 3pm).
Banahan added: "With us having such a strong squad, people aren't going to be getting burnt out because these boys can get rotated, with the team still performing."

text: Happy Father's Day to all you Dads out there. I made this for my Dad yesterday. Not grilled, but it was cooked outside in a turkey cooker. Lowcountry Boil is also referred to as Frogmore Stew or Shrimp Boil. It includes fresh Corn on the Cob, Red Potatoes, Sausage, Shrimp and Snow Crab Legs. Around here, it's usually served without the Snow Crab Legs....but they were on sale and ahhhmazing! Definitely a South Carolina favorite.

Another fine Villanueva outing leads to a Cubs win
Righty hurls seven strong innings; Rizzo, Soriano hit back-to-back HRs
CHICAGO -- After the Cubs and Rangers were rained out Wednesday, the projection for Thursday afternoon's series finale looked just as bleak. People in Chicago awoke Thursday morning to heavy flooding, nearly half a foot of rain and the forecast called for more.
But as gametime drew nearer, the two teams felt they had a window of time to sneak in the ballgame, with both teams prepping for a getaway day and the Rangers not scheduled for another trip to Wrigley Field this season.
By about 5 p.m. CT, under mostly clear skies, no one was happier that they squeezed in nine innings than Carlos Villanueva and his Cubs teammates.
Villanueva was sharp again -- it only goes to show how good he's been this season that two earned runs in seven innings inflated his season ERA from 0.64 to 1.29 -- while Anthony Rizzo and Alfonso Soriano provided the offense with the team's first back-to-back homers of the year in a 6-2 win.
"Yesterday, today, it was ugly," Villanueva said. "We had no idea. We heard yesterday that we weren't going to get the game in, that it was going to be tough. I tried to keep my guard up, just in case. You never wanna let down your guard and then say, 'Hey, 20 minutes, the game's starting.' And I'm just sitting in my locker not thinking about the game.
"But I kept hearing, 'It's gonna come at 1:35, it's gonna come in the fourth [inning], it's gonna come in the fifth,' and I just said, 'You know what, don't tell me. Just go out there and when it comes, it comes.'"
The heavy stuff never fell, and Villanueva was as locked in as ever. The only blemishes in his seven innings were two solo home runs, to Ian Kinsler and Nelson Cruz. In three games, the only runs he's allowed in 21 innings have been on solo homers (also to the Braves' Justin Upton on April 6).
He's the first pitcher to start his Cubs career with three consecutive quality starts since Carlos Silva had four in 2010, and he helped keep the Cubs' rotation's ERA at a strong 3.15 this year.
Villanueva got a hand from Rizzo and Soriano, whose homers accounted for two of the Cubs' nine extra-base hits. Nate Schierholtz had the first, a double in the second inning, and scored the game's first run to give Chicago a 1-0 lead.
The Cubs then got to Rangers starter Alexi Ogando in the third, scoring four runs before Ogando recorded an out. David DeJesus led off with a triple and scored on a wild pitch before Starlin Castro walked to set the table for Rizzo.
The first baseman crushed a 2-1 fastball from Ogando about 475 feet into the right-center-field bleachers and nearly out of the ballpark. According to ESPN's Stats & Info, it was the longest home run hit in the Majors this year.
"Oh, cool," Rizzo said calmly. "I'm sure that won't last very long. There's a lot of good hitters in this league. It was just one of those things -- I got a good swing, a good pitch to hit and didn't try to do too much with it."
Soriano followed six pitches later with a solo shot to left for his first homer of the season. Ogando would be done just one batter later, allowing five runs on six hits in just his third career start of 2 1/3 innings or fewer.
"It was difficult to command my fastball, and that affected all my pitches," Ogando said. "This was by far the worst of all my outings. When I was trying to throw strikes, they took advantage of the pitches that were up."
Welington Castillo singled with one out in the fifth off Derek Lowe and scored on a Luis Valbuena double to make it 6-1. Castillo, known as a defensive catcher, recorded his first career four-hit game and has hit safely in nine of his first 11 games.
"If he can swing the bat like this all year long, we've got something really special," manager Dale Sveum said. "Because the defense he has behind the plate is one of the best in baseball."
It was just the Cubs' third win in their last 11 games. They'll now embark on a 10-game, three-city road trip that begins in Milwaukee on Friday.
"It's a nice little test, getting away from home," Villanueva. "We need to win some series, take two out of three from [the Brewers and Reds] and then hopefully go to Miami and take the series there, too. We'll come back home on a positive and hopefully come back with a lot better weather than we've had this week."

Hey there, time traveller!
This article was published 1/11/2012 (1754 days ago), so information in it may no longer be current.
Joe MACK was not retained for his record. Certainly a 19-34 mark and a .358 winning percentage through all but one game of three seasons on the job cannot be deemed a success.
No, Mack was brought back because the organization believes he has the right plan and it is about to bear fruit.
We're going to see about that, aren't we?
Among the positives attached to keeping Mack -- continuity, fiscal responsibility -- is the prospect of finding out once and for all if he is indeed the man for the job.
That answer will be apparent next season. There will be no more ambiguity on Mack. Once and for all we'll know if he's got the parts to lead this organization.
"We are in the winning business. The expectation for Joe, Tim (Burke) and myself is to win. We'll be held accountable for wins and how we play next year," said Blue Bombers CEO Garth Buchko. "Next year we have to win. We could line up excuses for this year. But we're not in the excuse business. We have to be responsible. There are no excuses next year. We have to be accountable to wins."
Chairman of the board Bill Watchorn echoed Buchko.
"The team plays Blue Bomber football and they're in every game and they have a chance to win every game. That would be a successful transition," said Watchorn. "I want to be in the playoffs every year. I think missing the playoffs is unacceptable."
There it is. Black and white. No soap opera. Joe Mack will put a winning team on the field and they'll get to the playoffs -- or he won't.
The rebuild is over. It's now time to produce results. Mack says the young fruit is about to ripen. The only problem, it seems, is who will pass the fruit. You know, who will be the QB? It's usually a pretty big question in football. From Pop Warner to the CFL and NFL.
Do the Bombers have an answer? Mack says not yet. And that's scary. He's had three years to solve this riddle and he's no further ahead. The next seven months had better be productive at the pivot spot for Joe or he's in trouble, if we are to believe Buchko and Watchorn.
Did Buchko ask Mack what he would do about the quarterback position?
"Yeah, I did," said Buchko. "He said, 'I'll fix it.' "
Buchko said he spent the better part of the last month reviewing the organization's football operations department. Firing Mack was on the table but Buchko decided against it.
"What ultimately sealed my decision (was) I am just not ready to dismantle this organization and start over from scratch," he said. "In business as in sports, success comes when you have stability in the leadership position.
"I did a lot of assessment of the football club from top to bottom. I talked to a lot of knowledgable football people. The toughest thing is to dismantle an organization. I'm looking for stability. Joe's record of bringing in people is fabulous. This year is an example of the great young talent we have. Stability for the football club has been missing for a lot of years."
That's all fine and well except it hasn't produced enough wins. Buchko understands the time for talking about talent and repeating excuses is over.
Mack defended his record, pointing to injuries and other "hiccups" as the cause for this season's disappointing results and 5-12 record.
"We were in first place last year and made it to the Grey Cup. And although we had some hiccups, I still think that we have overall, the quality of talent of players to get there again," Mack said. "We have to get more consistency in our quarterback play and that's something we're going to have to work our way through."
Mack is right about one thing. What the Bombers do next season, and any season, will revolve around the quarterback play.
The GM has had three seasons to solve the biggest issue all CFL teams face and Winnipeg cannot say with any confidence they have a clear plan behind centre.
Buck Pierce has been the team's starter for three seasons and when he's healthy and able to finish games he's a proven winner with a 12-5 record in those situations. But he has failed to complete almost 50 per cent of his starts and the team has failed to reach the post-season in two of his three years as the No. 1. In short, he's unreliable.
Bringing back Buck wouldn't seem to be the answer. But before he's jettisoned there has to be a better solution. So far Mack hasn't been able to produce one.
It's all about that one spot now. The rest, as they say, is just conversation.
The clock is officially ticking on Mack. And it's beginning to race.

According to the USDA's "Agricultural Prices" report released on Wednesday, the preliminary milk-feed ratio for March is 1.47, down from 1.52 last month.
This report marks the fourth straight month that the ratio has dropped, indicating decreased profitability.
The all-milk price used in calculating the ratio also slipped, dropping from $19.50 per hundredweight in February to $19.10 in March.
The corn price jumped by 14 cents from February ― $7.04 per bushel to $7.18. The soybean price fell slightly, sinking 10 cents to $14.50 per bushel in March.
Alfalfa hay climbed $1 per ton to $219.
The milk-feed ratio is a rough measure of dairy profitability. It represents the pounds of 16-percent mixed dairy feed equal in value to 1 pound of whole milk. Therefore, with a 1.47 ratio in March, a dairy producer could buy 1.47 pounds of feed for every 1 pound of milk sold.
Some people question how valid the USDA's milk-feed ratio is. See this story. But the USDA has been using the same formula for years, comparing the same commodities. Therefore, it can serve as a relative measure for comparing different points in time.

Ilkley residents have voted to set up a fighting fund to help protect the town against intensive house-building, ahead of a consultation on the influential Core Strategy of the Bradford District Local Plan.
More than 200 people attended a public meeting organised by Ilkley Parish Council last Wednesday over the proposed publication of the draft Core Strategy, which sets a housebuilding target of 800 new homes in Ilkley by 2029, and hundreds more in Addingham, Burley-in-Wharfedale and Menston.
The meeting, at the Clarke Foley Centre, heard the official public consultation period run by Bradford Council will take place for six weeks, starting on February 17.
Ilkley Parish Council is working to publicise the consultation, encouraging as many people as possible to have their say at this stage, before the Core Strategy is sent to the Secretary of State for approval.
But many residents also agreed to support a "war chest", which could pay for legal representation on behalf of the community when the Core Strategy is submitted to the Government's Planning Inspectorate for examination.
There are continuing concerns about the numbers of houses proposed for Ilkley – as well as fears property developers may put forward a case for housing target numbers to be increased.
Councillor Stephen Butler said the meeting was one of the biggest events to take place in Ilkley for a long time.
"It was a really positive meeting. It should be said to the powers-that-be that the people of Ilkley are very concerned about what's happening," he said.
Bradford councillor, Anne Hawkesworth (Ind, Ilkley) said there was strong support for a fighting fund at last week's meeting.
She said: "There will be a war chest. There was a vote taken, everyone was asked if they felt it should be set up, and asked if they would put something into it."
Suggestions were also made at the meeting that people should lobby their MP over concerns about overdevelopment of the valley, loss of greenbelt land, the likely strain on the local infrastructure, and greenfield sites being developed ahead of brownfield land elsewhere.
Meanwhile, Ilkley Parish Council is gearing up for an effort to promote the forthcoming six-week Bradford Council consultation period on the Core Strategy.
Councillor Paul Kitching said: "Our concern is to make sure people are aware of the changes that are coming up, so they do comment. This is the last opportunity that they're going to have to comment on these houses."
The Parish Council is looking for public venues to put up display boards about the Core Strategy and the consultation. It is also seeking a volunteer to help publicise the consultation on social media.
Contact the parish clerk on (01943) 436212 or e-mail Coun Kitching on email@example.com to help.

A new and rather bizarre food creation is about to hit store shelves. Hot Can, the canned meals that don't even need a heating source to cook. That's right. Each can uses a "totally safe exothermic reaction" to prepare your meal. We aren't sure what that means exactly, but they say it's totally safe so don't worry!
The most interesting, um, flavor is called Christmas Dinner, which features a turkey casserole along with vegetables, stuffing and cranberry sauce. Other varieties? Chicken curry, cheese ravioli and rice pudding. Stow a few away for the zombie apocalypse.

Here's a tweet from Nick Kypreos — former Ranger (first off the bench, prematurely, to celebrate the Cup; first to kiss the Cup).
Seriously, he's pretty plugged in. I put a lot of credence in this:
#NHL news. Look for #Panthers Bryan McCabe to be traded to the #Rangers as early as today. McCabe willing to waive no-movement clause.
I don't know who they give up yet. I am going to get out ahead and first-guess this. McCabe will help the Rangers this season, absolutely. He's still mean, he's big, and he can play the PP point with a heavy shot and some calmness. He helps them get in, and maybe he helps them win a series.
But depending on what they give up, this could be a step backward in terms of what the Rangers are trying to build here. It takes out one defenseman, and two from last night's lineup once Marc Staal returns. That's two young guys who are going to lose a lot of NHL "stretch drive" experience and playoff experience. Unless one of last night's six is going the other way. That would be even worse.
If it's Gilroy, and the Rangers are resigned to the fact that they won't re-sign him this summer, I can live with that. If it's Gilroy and a pick, I can live with that. But if it's more than that, I think it's a bad move. And I don't think it does Del Zotto any good to take a seat or be demoted again. His confidence is already hurt.
Derek Stepan was fined by the NHL, will not be suspended.
Kris Newbury cleared waivers.
Just got word. Staal's out tomorrow. Fedotenko is day to day.

Christopher Lemaitre, a European sprint, has decided that he is going to focus on the 200m event in the upcoming London 2012 games. He was quoted by BBC Sport as saying "I think it's more reasonable to run one distance. For the Olympics, my aim is to try and win the gold in the 200m."
Lemaitre is currently in Rome for a showdown against star sprinter Usain Bolt. Bolt was quoted as saying the following about Lemaitre, "I think in years to come he could be up there in the top three or four sprinters in the world."
Lemaitre then went on to say that for the rest of 2011 he will be focused on trying to reach the finals in both the 100m and 200m events when the world championship comes around in September.

BELFAST, Maine - A 25-year-old Maine man was sentenced Monday in the drug-related fatal shooting of a Seminole County firefighter.
In a plea agreement, Daniel Porter pleaded guilty to manslaughter in the death of Jerry Perdomo, 31, of Orange City, Fla.
He was sentenced Monday in Belfast to 30 years in prison, with all but 16 years suspended.
Porter was arrested in February 2012 at a house in Jackson where police say he killed the Seminole County firefighter over a drug debt.
Porter told police that he owed Perdomo $3,000 and that Perdomo had threatened him and his family.
An affidavit said Porter and Perdomo had earlier exchanged death threats, with Porter threatening to shoot Perdomo and put him through a wood chipper, and Perdomo threatening to cut off Porter's hands.

"Game changer" is a term you hear often when people talk about how technology has changed their industry.
Excerpt from "S.A.L.T. & Pepper," co-authored by Rick Miller

 We at Millennium Consulting Group began this book with several objectives: We wanted to illustrate situations where people in the retail industry performed at their best and worst; we wanted to show that companies and individuals who commit to superior personal service can and will excel, and we wanted to share an interesting story about a character named Hank—a "regular Joe" who changed his career, and, by proxy, his life, by adopting a simple-yet-powerful outlook on customer service.

 The lessons behind these three objectives should inspire most people who work in retail functions, from entry-level associates to senior-level managers, to perform at their peak potential—because the opportunities are enormous. By and large, the overall quality of customer service is declining, but individuals and companies that deliver exceptional service will stand out and be rewarded at the expense of those that don't.

 [Our] story is about a young retail banker who created a method called S.A.L.T. & Pepper that he applied to his customer service practices. In a short period of time, he transformed himself from a self-described slacker into one of the most successful and well-respected investment advisors in the country.

 Our observations, studies, and personal experiences indicate a growing gap between those who provide great service and those who fall short of even good service. It appears the industry standard [is] to do as little as possible to get through a transaction. It appears successful human-to-human interaction is a dying skill even when people are being paid to do it.

 Mom-and-pop retailers took personal pride in making their customers happy, but that spirit is gone from many of today's retail associates. Most don't get the selfless joy from helping others. But feeling good is not the only reward associated with becoming great at customer service. As S.A.L.T. & Pepper will show, a retail employee who performs well enough to stand out from the herd can uncover opportunities he never knew he had. Retail employees are standing on a mountain of opportunity, but almost none of them recognize it or know how to tap into it.

 Many retail employees ask, "How can I get out of this job?" Very few ask themselves, "What can I get out of this job?" The story about Hank Davis and how he learned what he needed to do to become successful can answer that question. We think the big company that provides mom-and-pop service will win just about all of the time. This service, we believe, is what consumers want#x2026;

 Hank's Story
 Hey! My name is Hank Davis, from Great Plains, IL. Great Plains was—and still is—a town populated by people who earned whatever they had through hard work over long hours. My parents owned a very small business, and some of my relatives were small business owners, as well.

 My parents made me go to work at a pretty young age, just like their parents did with them. I was never what you would call a great employee—and if you ask my family, they probably would tell you they wanted to fire me all along but didn't have the heart. I really did not want to be there, and it came out in the way I dealt with the customers and my co-workers. Although I probably acquired some experience working these jobs, I would not say they taught me to provide world-class customer service or advice, and they didn't build my leadership or teamwork skills.

 Halfway through my freshman year [in college], my aunt suggested I apply for a position on the summer "floating staff" at the bank where she worked. My first few years with the bank were pretty lackluster because—like the jobs I had before—I did not really want to be there. [This] would change dramatically over the next few years—all because of a day I now call "Ed Pepper Day."

 [Cathy, the branch manager] informed us that Ed Pepper, the CEO of the bank, would be coming to visit the branch on Wednesday, and he would be with us for the duration of the day. Cathy explained the rules, outlined some of her expectations, and made it abundantly clear we had better be "on point" when Ed Pepper came to town.

 "There is no room for poor performance when Ed comes to this branch," she told us. She planted the seed that this day was going to be different than the rest. I soon would find out that Ed Pepper Day would be the most important day in my professional life…

 Anyone can relate to [Hank's] basic concepts of service, advice, leadership, and teamwork, and everyone knows how they would behave if they knew the CEO of their company were making a visit to their office or store.

 So why don't more people replicate this approach, and why don't more retail operations stand out for their exceptional service rather than for their bad service? Many people can't motivate themselves to put in the work and practice the S.A.L.T & Pepper philosophy, probably because they don't believe it can pay off. Many companies don't foster an environment for success or provide the training employees need to master the basics. [They] see customer service as a necessary cost of doing business but not as an opportunity to build their brand… If the organization doesn't see the value in top-tier customer service, how will employees find the spark to want to be great?

 If you work as a retail associate and you think to yourself, "I'd like to be promoted to senior management or land an exciting new job," or if you just want to start enjoying what you do, you have to be willing to ask yourself some key questions:

 Do I want to achieve my full potential and do I want to challenge myself to become the best I can be?

 Do I want to have fun by making customers, teammates, and managers happy?

 Am I willing or able to give the customer great service when he needs it?

 Do I know my company's products and the customer's needs well enough to offer advice?

 Can I lead my colleagues—directly or through example—when it's necessary?

 Can I recognize the situations where good teamwork is in the best interest of the customer?

 Do I recognize the value of building relationships with as many people as I can?

 Do I realize that simple common courtesy is often the easiest way to earn respect?

His most famous role, of course, is the patriot who took the "Midnight Ride." Revere rode on 18 April 1775 to alert patriots that British troops were on the move. He borrowed a horse to take his "Midnight Ride," which was later confiscated by the British. The horse's name was Brown Beauty. Revere alerted more patriot horsemen, who then rode to alert others. Revere was later captured by the British, but his alert was enough to prepare patriots for the invasion they had been expecting and preparing for.

Tendons connect muscles to bone. The fingers have tendons that run all the way up to the finger tips. The tendons on the palm side let you curl your fingers. A flexor tendon injury is damage to these tendons. When the tendons are damaged, you can lose your ability to bend your finger(s).
Flexor tendon injures most commonly occur as a cut or laceration to the hand. Other causes include:
Factors that may increase your chance of a flexor tendon injury include:
Symptoms may include:
You will be asked about your symptoms and medical history. A physical exam will be done. During the exam, you will be asked to bend and straighten your fingers. Your doctor will also check your fingers for sensation, blood flow, and strength. You may be referred to a hand surgeon or an orthopedist—a doctor who specializes in bones.
Talk with your doctor about the best plan for you. Most patients with this type of injury require surgery. Surgery may be scheduled right away or within several days. Treatment options include the following:
Depending on the type of injury, you may receive antibiotics to prevent infection.
Tendons that are cut or ruptured require surgery. The hand surgeon may sew the tendon back together. It may be necessary to sew the tendon back to the muscle.
After surgery, you will be given a splint to protect your hand. You will be told how long to wear it. It may be up to two months. A physical therapist or occupational therapist will work with you to regain your finger strength and range of motion.
Flexor tendon injuries are typically caused by accidental injuries. There are no known prevention guidelines for this injury.

R.A. Dickey pitched another remarkable game in what has been a spectacular 2012 season on Thursday. As you probably heard, he's up to 20 wins, and is probably the favorite to win the Cy Young Award.
But among all-time Mets pitching seasons, it's only 21st, as per Baseball-Reference. Does that surprise you? It sure surprised me.
This is no knock on Dickey's season. It just reflects how much tremendous pitching has been part of the franchise's history.
Dickey's 7 2/3 innings of 13-strikeout pitching moved him ahead of David Cone's 1988, the famous 20-3 season that turned Ed Hearn into someone Mets fans were fond of seeing traded. But it also inched him just ahead of Bret Saberhagen's 1994, a season few celebrated because the strike ended it in August, and because guys who spray bleach at reporters don't tend to get favorable stories written about them.
Dickey, with a strong final start next week, has a chance to pass Tom Seaver's 1970, and even Craig Swan's 1978, the ERA-title season. (Dickey has a good chance of winning the ERA title himself in 2012; it's been quite a year).
But Dickey's 2012 will fall short of seven other Tom Seaver seasons, along with campaigns by Jon Matlack, Jerry Koosman, Al Leiter's 1998, Pedro Martinez's 2005, Johan Santana's 2008, even Frank Viola's 1990, the last Met to win 20 games.
Why do I bring this up? Not to denigrate aremarkable accomplishment by R.A. Dickey. But just to put it in organizational perspective, did you know where David Wright's season ranks among all-time hitting years for the Mets?
It's sixth ever. Only Lance Johnson's 1996, John Olerud's 1998, Bernard Gilkey's 1996, and two other seasons rate ahead of Wright's 2012 in WAR: Carlos Beltran's 2006, and David Wright's 2008.
Maybe that shouldn't surprise me, given that Wright just passed Ed Kranepool for the all-time franchise hits record, and Kranepool's career WAR is 2.2, or roughly a third of Wright's value in 2012 alone, or that when Gary Carter drove in 100 runs in 1985, it was just the second time a Met had done so, ever.
I just find that perspective interesting on both counts. Hope you do, too.
And I'll tell you this: sitting in the stands yesterday, it didn't feel like I was watching something roughly as impressive as Bret Saberhagen's 1994.

John Tortorella:
On the post-practice event in which members of the FDNY and NYPD hockey teams were interspersed with Rangers players for a scrimmage game and a shootout. Tortorella, by the way, was the happiest guy on the ice when some of the firemen and cops scored on Henrik Lundqvist.
"It couldn't have worked out any better, except for freakin' Hank trying to stone every one of them. Oh, God dammit, you could see it right from the get-go. I said, 'Give 'em a sniff, would ya?' He just kind of looked at me. It's the hardest I've seen him compete since I've been here."
"I'm glad they did (eventually get a couple of goals). I wanted someone to go home with a goal against him. I'm just so happy the way it worked out."
On the one fireman who hit the crossbar on his shootout shot:
"He told me he wanted the puck anyway."
"We went out, the team, went out touring to some of the fire stations and, you know, we just figured … I just wanted them to practice with us … We picked a day, J.R. (John Rosasco, the V.P. of public relations and player recruitment) and I, and Kerryann (Tomlinson, the V.P. of community relations), and she is just tremendous. She's the one who organized everything. We just thought it was good timing, for where we are with the anniversary of it and all the stuff that went on a couple of weeks ago, and I just think it's a way of us showing respect to them. I thought it was a great opportunity to show respect for them and what they do for us.
"The game itself was great, but just to watch them with the players after, just milling around and taking pictures and Pruster showing them how to fight, and this and that, I'm so happy it worked out that way because they deserve that type of respect for what they do for us."
"You look at our guys, look at how much fun they had doing it. I'm not sure who had more fun, the policemen or the firemen or our players. It was a good time for it. … We toned it down a little bit (in practice) and did some teaching, so it was a good day. You guys have talked to me about the monotonous of training camp. I think it's important to have monotonous, but there's certain times you need to get away from it. So they did their work for 50 minutes prior, and then they had some fun with these guys."
On Brad Richards' groin: "Brad's good. Just talked to him. He's fine. He'll play tomorrow."
On Marc Staal leaving the ice early: "Had an appointment with a specialist (in NYC) and we wanted him to make that appointment. Right now we feel it's more important for him to stay with that than 50 minutes of ice time."
Said he won't give daily updates on Staal if he's on the ice and practicing, but will if he's missing or if there is news regarding his condition.
"There will be a couple (of young guys who played in Albany who will play in Newark). We made some decisions today to narrow that list down. I'm not saying it's fair sometimes, where you just don't get much game time, but we have to make decisions quickly here. But there will be a couple of guys in the lineup that we want to continue to look at and by Saturday is when we're going to … there'll be a number of people out of here and we'll have a pretty good idea of what that number is. It may be 32 going to Europe. We'll have that (number) Saturday.
Can much be read into the three groups on the ice today?
"Sure. Yeah. Now, it doesn't mean someone from the second group isn't going to bump up to the first group. But, yeah, you can read into it.
"Most of the guys (in the first group), those are really young kids. I don't think it's going to really have a lot of impact on us right now with the big club. But again, you can read into it a little bit, but certainly there's some players who practiced in different groups because that's just where it fell in numbers, too. So don't read too much into it, I guess is what I'm saying."
On Zuccarello having to play himself onto the roster or off of it?
"He is in competition like a number of other guys. He has played very well in this camp. He has made a number of plays, play that people don't see, just small plays in small areas, but he is still in competition trying to make this hockey club. Which goes back to that other question. He's there now. That could change. There's some interchangeable parts there. But Zucc has played well.
Is it more important for him to improve on what he does best, or to pick up on other areas of his game?
"Both. We want more improvement at hsi strengths and we want to continue working with him on the defensive part of it, understanding the smaller rink, understanding our scheme. He still doesn't totally understand away from the puck. We continue to work with him. So I would say both."
On Del Zotto in Albany:
"Ah, again, he wasn't bad, wasn't great. I don't think anybody was great or anybody was real bad. It was a really tough game to evaluate because I thought it was just a sloppy game. I'm not going to put too much stock into anything good or bad in that game. But Michael continues, just like Zucc, to battle for a spot."
Going to watch from upstairs in Newark, then go back behind the bench for the preseason
On the vantage point from above:
"It really helped me, because you look at little things. I take in the intangibles, how people react in scrums, how people react in situations, that you just don't see it from ice level. So I'm going to do one more game.
"It's a lot easier (to see what's going on away from the puck).
Said there's competition for the third goalie, but the guy who goes to backup the two regulars in Europe will not necessarily be the "third" goalie in the organization. In other words, the team might want the true third goalie to be with the Whale and playing games.
On whether expectations are, or should be, higher this year (I had to ask him this question for my season preview, since I probably won't see him again until the team gets back from Europe).
"That's up to you guys. You guys are the ones who plant the expectations. I'm not a forecaster. I'm not a big guy to talk about expectations.
"I just want us to grow in all areas. I think we're in a different level of the process. We've kept our kids. Glen has done a great job keeping our nucleus and our core. I think they've grown. I think they need to continue to grow. We've added Rupp, we've added Richards, veteran guys, so that puts in the process of trying to be a better team. I think we've upped our talent level with Richie and helps us in a lot of areas with out club. Rupp's going to help us in a lot of areas with our lines. So I'll put it that way. I think we're in the next step of the process of being the best we can be."
(As a follow-up, I asked if this year is different than, say, two years ago when he openly said he'd live with the hiccups as he brought along a lot of young players):
"When you're grooming a team and building a team you're looking to chip out some of those hiccups, as this might be the third year for some of those guys. Certainly we want to kick out some of those hiccups and be a better team. I thought we were a pretty good team last year. I thought we did a really good job of identifying who we wan to be, who we are, and playing to it. We're going to have to be better in all areas if we want to get out of that seventh, eighth, ninth fight that we're in every year. Whether that's expectations, I'm just being honest. That's where we are in our process of trying to get there, into another spot."
On when the team identified Rupp as a coveted free agent, and why:
"Early. He scored so many freakin' goals agianst us we wanted to get him. We focused on him because we wanted to get people to help Prust with the bigger guys if it comes to that. And we just felt he was a pretty good player who adds size and a little bit of veteran mentoring. We heard he was a really good man, a good teammate, and you can move him. I don't think he's just a fourth-line guy. I think you can move him in a lot of different positions. … We just felt he was a good fit for us where we are as a hockey team right now, with the youth that we have. Really, back at LaQuinta (at organizational meetings) we were talking about Rupp and Richie and I think it's going to help our hockey club."
On Stepan being on the team or having to earn a spot:
"Derek Stepan continues to battle for where he fits on the hockey club … positionally. I've got to figure out what we're going to do. We'll have six lines plus one, probably 19 forwards, going into Europe. … I've got to figure out the lines. You know, you add Brad Richards and as much as we've talked about center-ice position, you put Richie in there and now there's a glut there, and what do you do? And who's going to play left wing with Richie and Gabby? Can Brian Boyle play left wing? Can Dubi play left wing there? There's a number of different options that we have to work through, and we have certainly not figured that out yet."
Said he switched from the planned 18 forwards to 19 making the trip was "because someone earned their way onto it. And we may go to 11 D — I was going to go with 10 D — because of Marc."
On having seen Boyle at left wing?:
"No, but we will. We're going to take a look at that because, I've got to think about balancing a lineup too. I look at Anisimov, Dubinsky and Callahan and that line just has chemistry. We put them together in one scrimmage and you could just see that they know where one another is. And balancing a lineup has to come into play as we try and figure out what we're going to do here.
He agreed that Fedotenko-Boyle-Prust also has chemistry:
"Yeah, and that's what you've got to weigh. It may hurt … and I'm not sure if it's going to work out this way; it's just a thought process you go through as a coach. You look at all these combinations. Which is better? What if we get a good left winger that plays with Richie and Gabby that isn't Dubi and you have two lines? Which line to (opponents) check? If that line plays the way we feel it can — Anisimov, Dubinsky and Callahan? I'm not sure it all works out that way. They may end up stinking the joint out and it just doesn't work. But this is the process that I have to go through in the next couple of weeks, trying to figure all this out."

THE headteacher at Penryn College has apologised "unreservedly" after students personal details were accidentally sent out to other pupils in the school.
The school realised its error almost immediately and tried to recall the emails but the technical process took almost 30 minutes, during which time a small number of pupils opened the attached document.
The document, which included data about children's special educational needs and their families' financial status was originally emailed to more than 1,000 students due to "human error".
Headteacher Marie Hunter said the school apologised "unreservedly" for the error.
She told the Packet: "The college has written apologising to all parents and students informing them that information will not be circulated in this way again at the college.
"The college takes its responsibilities for protection of data extremely seriously and apologises unreservedly for this error.
"It asks that if you have received a copy of this information, please delete it immediately as you will be in breach of data protection if you knowingly share it with another person."
She added that the incident had been reported to the Data Protection Agency and said: "It was a human error and the person concerned is understandably very upset about it."
However, the parent of one pupil named on the list said: "I am dismayed and horrified that this should have happened.
"It is a clear breach of everything that one would expect from a school in relation to confidentiality."
She added that she hoped the authorities would take a "very serious view" of the issue.
Another parent, who saw the email after it was sent to his daughter, said: "My daughter received this by mistake in her college email account, and also found out all her friends had the same email."
Mrs Hunter said all students were asked to delete the email without opening it.
"We now know a student subsequently forwarded the email from her school account. We are investigating how this could have happened. A parent informed the college that he had seen the email during the Easter break.
"Unfortunately, students' eligibility for pupil premium and free school meals or [those who] have special education needs was also identified on the email by a letter of the alphabet.
"This is because the Department for Education asks all schools to track the achievement and progress of these groups of students."
One email was sent by the administrator to all staff on April 2, two days before the end of term, just before 11.30am. Four minutes later another was sent, with the report attached and the message "sorry forgot to add them - they are now enclosed", but to all students.
The school said that although the email was immediately recalled, the technical process takes 30 minutes, and during this time a small number of students using computers would have been able to open the email and forward it, which meant that these copies could still have been in circulation.
They also sent an email to tutors explaining the mistake, and they in turn spoke to the children about the confidential nature of the message, and asked them to delete it from their inbox.
Cornwall Councillor Andrew Wallis, the cabinet member for children, schools and families, said: "It's very disappointing that this email was sent with potentially sensitive information.
"The school is an academy, so responsible for its own data management, but hopefully they will learn from this and put more robust steps in place to make sure this doesn't happen again."
When asked whether sharing such information among staff members was common practice, Mrs Hunter said that she could not comment on other schools, but that "tracking behaviour and achievement is part and parcel of school life."
She added that behaviour at the school, recently commended by the Minister of State for Schools as one of the 100 most improved for GCSE results, was "great with the majority of kids."
The behaviour and achievement report records over 300 behavioural incidents which took place at the college between March 24 and 28, ranging in severity from forgotten homework or school equipment to any incidents.
It also contains columns with information about children's special educational needs, together with details of whether they are eligible for free school meals and for the pupil premium (additional funding to raise the attainment of disadvantaged pupils) - two things that can both be considered as indicative of the economic status of a pupil and their family.

I shall now make a statement in my national capacity.
At the outset I would like to very warmly welcome the new SRSG Ms Zerrougui. We wish her success and assure her of Germany's full support. We also pay tribute to the dedicated work and committment of her predecessor, Ms. Radhika Coomaraswamy.
Let me also thank Mr Ladsous, Mr Lake and Mr Tolbert for their impressive statements today.
Germany aligns itself with the EU-statement to be delivered by the European Union later during this debate.
We heard it from our briefers: The number of children suffering in armed conflict is still shockingly high. This is a reminder for us: We have to increase our joint efforts to stop and prevent heinous crimes committed against children.
It has to be said: Since 2005 encouraging progress has been made. Twenty action plans have been signed by parties to conflict. Consequently, tens of thousands of child soldiers have been released. This is a remarkable achievement of which the United Nations and the Security Council can be proud of.
The recent convictions of Thomas Lubanga and Charles Taylor have made clear that accountability for the recruitment and abuse of children is advancing.
Yet we must not be complacent, there is still reason for concern: The listings of new parties in the Secretary General's Report are proof of the seriousness of the problem. New parties have been listed for recruitment and use of children and for killing and maiming of children. There have also been first listings for attacks on schools and hospitals.
What can we do better?
First, we should explore ways to improve the existing protection framework:
Child protection and child protection training should be an integral part of all peacekeeping and special political missions. In this regard, we strongly commend the efforts of DPKO and DPA for developing a joint child protection policy.
Child protection issues, and in particular the release and reintegration of children, need to be systematically included in peace negotiations and agreements.
Second: We need to address the issue of accountability.
Perpetrators of crimes against children need to be held accountable. This goes especially for the alarming number of so called persistent perpetrators. The Security Council needs to look at new ways to address the issue. The report of former French Ambassador de la Sablière provides a good overview over possible options. Let me just mention two:
One option that we favor is that the Security Council should increase its political engagement, for example through sessions dedicated to this issue.
A second option we should pursue is that the Security Council makes more use of targeted measures against individual perpetrators through Sanction Committees, starting with the expansion of existing Sanction Committee mandates.
We should take those suggestions forward in our future discussions.
We are gratified that the Security Council today once again adopted a resolution that underlines the importance of the work of the SRSG for Children and Armed Conflict, reiterates the Council`s readiness to adopt targeted and graduated measures against persistent perpetrators and authorizes annual reports of the Secretary General.
It goes without saying: We would have preferred a consensus decision on the resolution before us today. And we regret that some members chose not to support the resolution. We had one week of extensive discussion, and we, as pen-holder, made an extra effort to accommodate all delegation's concerns. We walked the extra mile, but we could not do one thing: Compromise on the integrity of existing and so far accepted mechanisms of the United Nations. That would have been irresponsible! A few might have different opinions on the way forward, but I hope that the wish to strengthen the existing UN system to protect children in armed conflict unites us all.
In closing, I would like to reiterate our hope that the Security Council will keep up its good work on this extremely important issue. Our ambitions for this agenda must remain high.
We owe it to the children. We owe it to them as the most vulnerable group of our societies. We owe it to them to spare no effort in enhancing the protection of their rights in armed conflict.
I now resume my functions as President of the Security Council.

CAROLINE Nokes MP has called for local schools to get their pupils talking and learning about money, as part of a charity's new campaign to help improve the financial capability of young people.
Schools have been sent free Get Money Smart posters and teaching materials by national charity pfeg (Personal Finance Education Group), which wants to get children talking about money in the classroom.
The charity's Get Money Smart posters – for children aged up to seven, 11, 14 and 16 – are designed to encourage classroom discussions about things children can do to learn more about money and personal finance.
Caroline Nokes MP has thrown her weight behind the effort as a way of helping young people to gain the skills and knowledge they will need to manage their personal finances throughout their lives.
The move follows news that after years of campaigning by the All Party Parliamentary Group on Financial Education for Young People, pfeg and MoneySavingExpert.com's Martin Lewis, financial education will be taught in secondary schools as part of the National Curriculum from September 2014.
Caroline Nokes MP said: "Financial education is so important and the earlier children learn about it the better."

DOG owners in the York area are invited to meet en-masse to walk their pets in an eye catching fundraiser for the charity Guide Dogs.
Guide Dogs are calling on dog owners across the area to make their pet a hero for the day by taking part in Dogs Unite - a sponsored dog walk to fund more life-changing guide dogs for blind and partially sighted people.
The walk will start at Millennium Bridge and take a 40 minute route which will give owners the chance to meet and chat.
As way of thanking the dogs, each will receive its very own super hero cape, a Dogs Unite dog tag medal and a goody bag.
Peter Holdstock, a York Guide Dog owner and organiser of the event said: "I became a Guide dog owner 15 years ago and I can honestly say it changed my life. It gave me the confidence and motivation to get out there, find work and develop a great life and career. My current dog Molly is my third and we are just busy looking to find her a good retirement home as she is now nine-years-old.
"It will be a very sad day when she retires and already I'm thinking about the major difficulties not having a Guide Dog creates such as struggling to get around my office and to the shops. Not to mention how nice it is when complete strangers like to chat because having the dog has broken the ice.
"I recently became chairman of the York fundraising branch because I want to give something back to Guide Dogs as they truly earn and need every penny donated. I'm really hoping we can get plenty of volunteers to help the branch and myself make the next 12 months the most successful year yet."
It costs £35,000 to create each new guide dog partnership and people can be partnered with as many as eight dogs over the course of their lifetime.
To find out more about Dogs Unite at Millennium Bridge please visit
This year's event will be on Saturday, September 6, at Millennium Bridge, York, YO10 4ER with registration starting at 11am and the walk commencing at 11:30am. The registration fee will be £4.

Baytril 100 (enrofloxacin) Injectable, manufactured by Bayer HealthCare LLC, Animal Health division, recently received Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approval for treatment and control of swine respiratory disease (SRD) associated with bacterial pathogens Mycoplasma hyopneumoniae (M. Hyo) and Bordetella bronchiseptica (B. bronchiseptica).
"M. hyo causes mycoplasmal pneumonia of swine (MPS), or enzootic pneumonia, throughout the world and can become problematic if left untreated," said Dr. Andy Holtcamp, Bayer senior veterinarian, technical services. "These recent FDA approvals for Baytril 100 to treat and control SRD associated with M. hyo and B. bronchiseptica provide swine producers and veterinarians a powerful tool to treat and control six major swine pathogens."
The endemic, contagious respiratory diseases caused by M. hyo and B. bronchiseptica are spread by nose-to-nose contact, contaminated water or feed, as well as transmission from sows to piglets. Symptoms can include dry coughing, impaired growth rate and poor feed conversion. Secondary bacterial or viral infections commonly follow, which can result in more severe SRD.
"As a company, Bayer HealthCare Animal Health division is committed to providing quality solutions to the problems swine producers and swine veterinarians experience on an on-going basis," said Cary Christensen, DVM, director, Food Animal Business Unit, Bayer. "These latest FDA approvals fortify the strength we continue to observe with Baytril 100 for treatment and control of SRD in swine herds."
Baytril 100 is an effective treatment tool in pigs which are eight to 12 weeks along in the finishing stage to help knock down the "10-Week Wall" of respiratory disease. In addition, producers may use Baytril 100 as a health management tool to control SRD in the nursery and the farrowing barn.
Baytril 100 is the only approved fluoroquinolone class of products labeled for use in swine. It is bactericidal, which describes classes of drugs that reduce bacterial populations. Many other antibiotics are bacteriostatic, which do not kill bacteria but inhibit bacterial growth. Due to the mode of action of Baytril 100, it kills six major swine respiratory disease-causing bacteria in both the resting and growth phases of bacteria development by essentially killing the "heart" of the bacteria.
Baytril 100 is approved for treating and controlling SRD associated with the following pathogens: Mycoplasma hyopneumoniae (M. hyo), Bordetella bronchiseptica (B. bronchiseptica), Actinobacillus pleuropneumoniae (APP), Pasteurella multocida, Haemophilus parasuis and Streptococcus suis.
For more information about Baytril 100, call Bayer Veterinary Services at (800) 422-9874 or see the company's website. View the product label here.

The English-language internet news agency Pakistan Daily carried a Reuters interview with Adnan Oktar on 23 August, 2009. Some of the author's answers to questions regarding his intellectual struggle against Darwinism and the Atlas of Creation are as follows:
"France has been widely known as being a strong country in atheism and materialism for a long time. That's why we've given priority to France. In fact, the effect of my books in France have been dramatic and this is quite pleasing. We even see Nicolas Sarkozy changing his ideas."
"Darwinism and materialism are at the root of all disasters. At the root of Masonism and fascism. Its destruction also meant the destruction of nationalism and fascism. This has been a very dramatic change before the coming of Jesus. This is also the destruction of Marxism."
"The intelligent design system seems very insincere to me. It's the product of a weak belief system. Everything was created by Allah and we have scientifically proven this."

"The nation that will insist upon drawing a broad line of demarcation between the fighting man and the thinking man is liable to find its fighting done by fools and its thinking by cowards."
Sir William Francis Butler
16 February 2011
Didn't get your DOD FLIPs this month? There's an app for that.
5 comments:
In the Army, are you legal to fly an Jepp approach with out any agency reviews? In the AF, for us to be able to fly Jepp, our TERPS office has to review and approve each individual approach for our use. This only happened if the coverage in our DoD books was lacking. In USAFE, the TERPS office was more often geared towards approving host nation produced approaches over Jepp ones. All said, it looks like that app and an iPad would be awesome and convenient, but for AF bubbas, institutional change would have to happen first (followed by hell freezing over). Maybe NGA can make something similar?

I'd be curious also. I haven't run this by anyone in the standardization department, so it may very well fail. I think that Europe might have slightly different rules...
...with that said, I'd like to see sectional charts and other products adopted into iPad format soon.
- 17 February, 2011 12:57
Yeah, makes too much sense to be fielded. I'm guessing for it to work, you'd have to download the entire database to the iPad, right? Would it be tied to the GPS reception too? Would be a cool "poor man's" moving map display.
Could you as an Army aviator fly a Jepp w/o an institutional (TERPS) review/approval? Curious on how our services differ here.
- 17 February, 2011 13:54
Forgot to add: checkout the ForeFlight app. The free trial shows off all the capes you might be looking for, but w/o Jepp approaches.

Meet Our People: James
James, an associate in London, works in our Human Capital Management Division in campus recruiting. He discusses the internship review process, what he enjoys about his job, and more. Here's a summary from his full profile:
"Having studied Politics and German, working for an investment bank was not an obvious choice. The internship experience, however, was a valuable opportunity to learn more about the industry and Human Capital Management as a profession."
"I work in the Investment Banking Division graduate recruiting team in London. Our role is varied due to its cyclical nature. Amongst other things, we visit universities and hold informational presentations about Goldman Sachs and manage relationships with university career centers and student societies."
"Reviews are an essential aspect of the internship, as they offer the interns the opportunity to receive constructive feedback on their performance. The feedback plays an important role in whether they receive an offer of full-time employment at the end of the summer."
"The most rewarding part of the job is when a new class of full-time analysts begins. Potentially you will have met these new employees for the first time three years ago, on campus at their first recruiting event. You may have fostered the relationship throughout their university career and accompanied them through the spring program and summer internship. It comes full circle when they then join you on campus presenting the firm to prospective recruits."

TAMPA, Fla. - The Saint Leo men's swim team set four new program bests and matched another as they shocked the nationally-ranked University of Tampa Spartans, defeating them 151-111, Saturday morning at the University of Tampa Swimming Complex.
Sophomore Gabe Keown had a breakout day against the Green and Gold's cross-town rival, matching the program's top time (21.21) in the 50-Yard Freestyle, and crushing the 100-Yard Freestyle record, touching with a time of 45.59.
The Philadelphia, Pa. native was also a member of both the 200-Yard Medley Relay, and 400-Yard Freestyle Relay teams, both of which finished with top times and new program bests as they knocked their Sunshine State Conference opponent out of the water.
The record-setting 200-Medley combo of Keown, Antonio Roki, Chris Canene, and Tim Olson finished two seconds faster than their adversary with a mark of 1:34.79, while the 400-Free Relay crew of Keown, Canene, Olson, and Michael Cozzi completed the Freestyle Relay four seconds faster than UT with a program best 3:05.19.
Along with his success in the 400-Free, Cozzi touched with a time of 1:41.97 in the 200-Yard Freestyle event, marking a new program record and dominating the second place finisher from UT by six seconds. The junior from East Hampton, Conn. also grabbed the top spot in the 500-Yard Freestyle (4:48.48), and earned a second place finish behind Keown in the 100-Free (47.77)
Also setting a new program best was Canene, claiming first in the 100-Yard Breaststroke as he touched at 57.84, with Derek Maddigan (1:00.09) and Carl Roycroft (1:00.41) claiming second and third, respectively. Canene, a freshman from Naperville, Ill. also finished first in the 200-Yard Breaststroke (2:08.44), while Maddigan (2:08.82) and Roycroft (2:09.86) rounded out the top three once again.
Roycroft went on to claim the top spot in the 200-Yard Individual Medley, finishing two seconds faster than the second-place UT swimmer as he touched at 1:59.07.
Along with helping the 200-Medley Relay to a top finish, Roki picked up the top finish in the 200-Yard Backstroke, coming in at 1:57.29, two seconds faster than freshman Rhet Rheinlander (1:59.65).
Rheinlander picked up another top-three time, finishing third in the 100-Yard Backstroke with a time of 54.08, while Luigi Zenere came in second at 53.94. Fellow freshman Kieran Advena also picked up a second place time, touching at 10:37.21 in the 1000-Yard Freestyle event, and later finished third in the 500-Yard Freestyle (5:07.55).
Rounding out the morning was Olson, who picked up two second-place finishes to go along with a top time in the 400-Free Relay. The Land O'Lakes, Fla. native touched at 1:56.53 in the 200-Yard Butterfly, and went on to finish the 100-Yard Butterfly in 51.16 to help the Lions to their big victory.
The Saint Leo men's swim team returns to action December 1-3, when they travel to Savannah, Ga. to participate in the SCAD Invitational. For the latest news, updates, and information on the Saint Leo men's swim team, visit SaintLeoLions.com.
