Perhaps Delaware's nickname is meant to indicate its great value in contrast to its small size. Will this state prove to be a diamond opportunity for you? Will you find jobs and apartment rentals that meet your needs? With a median household income of $47,381 ($6,000 higher than the national average), this is a prosperous state that offers residents many advantages—whether in apartments or employment.
What to Expect
Delaware's economy relies heavily on industry; for example, the state is home to Du Pont, one of the world's largest chemical companies. Outside of Wilmington, the state's only big city, much of the state remains agricultural, providing a range of farm products to urban markets in New York and other locales in the East.
Residents enjoy the great outdoors on the 90-mile coastline and hundreds of miles of nature trails throughout the state. Favorite recreational activities include fishing, hiking, bird watching, hunting and boating. Delaware has hot and humid summers with temperatures reaching the 80s during the day; sea breezes cool the area at night. Mild winters generally don't go lower than 30 degrees and see only light snowfall.
Where to Explore
The second-smallest state in the country, Delaware is divided into just three counties: New Castle, Kent and Sussex. Heavily industrialized New Castle County contrasts with the other two counties, which are predominantly agricultural areas. Most of the state's 780,000 residents live in New Castle County, in and around Wilmington, and that's where you'll find the majority of apartment rentals.
Wilmington With a town motto of "A Place to Be Somebody," Wilmington has a lot to offer new residents. It is Delaware's center for manufacturing, commercial and transportation activities, as well as the state's foremost cultural center. The quality of life is high, and the cost of living is comparatively low, which comes in handy when it comes to looking for affordable apartments for rent. Delaware has no sales tax, and Wilmington's city wage tax and property taxes are among the lowest in the area. Wilmington is proud of its small-town atmosphere. But don't be fooled by its small-town charm. Thanks to its proximity to Brandywine Valley and larger cities in the mid-Atlantic region, such as Philadelphia and Baltimore, Wilmington enjoys a diverse range of social and cultural attractions, making it a highly desirable place to search for apartment rentals and a wide range of jobs.
Dover Dover, although the state capital, is a small city with a population of 28,000. Don't let its size fool you, though. This thriving city is continuing to grow economically, in population and in land area, making it one of the more dynamic metropolises—albeit a small one—on the East Coast. Residential, commercial, industrial and institutional development continues to grow at a stable rate, and 13 major employers provide plenty of job opportunities. If that's not enough to entice you, how about the annual NASCAR season? Dover hosts the "All-American Heroes 400" and "Platinum 400" races. There may not be an overabundance of apartments for rent, but don't discount this small city on the rise; apartments here may be well worth the search.

My best friend's name is Chelsea, so I really do think the name is beautiful. As mclevine said it was pretty popular in the 80s, but I think it is a gorgeous name that deserves a place in your Top 10, especially if you love it!
August 29th, 2013 02:41 PM #7
I really like it! I know a few, but not many at all. It's a cute sound, and energetic to boot. I give Chelsea a thumbs-up.

Honestly, Chelsea is forever tainted for me. I went to school with 3 or 4 Chelsea/Chelsies and they were all chavvy girls, one of whom really bullied me. Other Chelseas I've since come across IRL or on TV, in books/magazines etc have been very similar. I don't think it has the greatest image in England and it is dated.
But I think it fits quite well with Ashlyn, Alana & Bianca from the names in your signature.William - Peter - Thomas ~ Rose - Morwenna - Eliza

As a runner for more than 20 years, I am often met with looks of confusion and weirdness when I tell people that I just ran 10 or 20 miles: "Oh, I could never do that. Running is just soooo boring!", they respond. Well, it's really not. It's actually pretty awesome because over the years I have figured out precisely how to keep my sometimes ADD-self from getting bored while running. And because I love you guys and am convinced the world would be a better place if everyone were a runner, I'm willing to share my top eight tips to alleviate boredom when putting in the miles–even if you run on the dreaded treadmill!

Shipping didnt take long and didnt cost much at all! Came in great condition and looks just as good in person as it does online. A good grab for a great price.
More than happy with quality and appearance of the watch. Overstock mailed and packaged it safely.
I am not even able to wear this watch. I have a 9 inch wrist and the strap for this watch is only 9 inches. Hopefully my wife can enjoy it.
The band was really stiff , but not firm . It felt cheap . Ive worn it twice to help fit it to my wrist and the "genuine leather " band is cracking . Other than that its a good looking watch . I spent 25 dollars putting on a new bad which is more than I spent on the watch to begin with ..
great deal........................................../.........
This watch is a Christmas for my Young grandson. I'M sure he will like it.
I bought this watch because I like having different ones to rotate around. Very inexpensive and good looking for the cost.
Its a lightweight watch that lays flat on the wrist (so it does not get caught on anything). I love mine and have had it over 6 mos. Still working great and don't leave home with out it.
Received the watch and it looked like the picture. I adjusted the time and the watch ran for about an hour before stopping. I thought perhaps it needed a new battery so I took it in and replaced the battery for *** and it ran for an hour and stopped. I'm returning it.

The Earliest Paediatric Surgical Atlas: Cerrahiye-i Ilhaniye
By S. N. Cenk Buyukunal and Nil Sari*
The author of one of the earliest surgical books was Serafeddin Sabuncuoglu, who was born in one of the ancient cities of Central Anatolia. In 1465, he wrote a surgical book in Turkish. The aim of this study was to investigate the details of this book and compare it with the old classics. It was observed that the book of Sabuncuoglu did not contain only pictures or miniatures of paediatric surgical procedures, but there were many important and major new contributions to the surgical literature originally described by Sabuncuoglu himself. He based his contributions and techniques on formerly designed and described procedures, moreover, developing and nourishing paediatric surgical culture of that era. Thus a combination of Greek, Roman, Arabic, and Turkish paediatric surgery combined extraordinarily and influenced the development of European paediatric surgery.
Despite the rapid growth and dissemination of paediatric surgical knowledge, the historical aspect of paediatric surgery still has not been systematically explored. The author of one of the earliest surgical textbook was Serafeddin Sabuncuoglu, who was born in Amasya in the Northern part of Central Anatolia and practiced in an Amasya hospital for 14 years. In 1465, he wrote his original textbook. Cerrahiye-i Ilhaniye, in Turkish, describing surgical techniques, incisions and instruments. This book also contained many miniature drawings concerning the operative procedures. Some parts of this textbook include theoretical and practical points about paediatric surgery.[1]
In 1983, during the meeting of the Greek Association of Paediatric Surgeons in Chios, Montagnani of Rome it was declared that Sabuncuoglu made only a faithful translation of Abû Kâsim Al-Zahravî's[2] (Albucasis) Textbook of Surgery, the only additions being the miniatures designed by the surgical techniques.[3] In earlier times, there had been only two or three sources as reference books on surgery. Abû Kâsim Al-Zahravî's book was one of these source books.[4] Even minor additions to such a book were an important step for surgical literature. To investigate the differences and original aspects of Sabuncuoglu's textbook, we explored it and compared it with Zahravî's original text and translation of ancient surgical textbooks.
There are three original, handwritten copies of Sabuncuoglu's book. Two of these copies are in Istanbul, in the Istanbul National Library of Fatih and Capa Medical History Department of Istanbul University. The third is in the Paris National Library.[5] Cerrahiye-i Ilhaniye includes four major parts: Cauterisation Techniques: General Surgery including Paediatric and Plastic Surgery; Orthopaedics; and Medical Preparations innovated by Sabuncuoglu." The three different manuscripts of the book were translated into the modern Turkish language and compared with Zahravî's textbook and other ancient surgical textbooks. Sabuncuoglu's special contributions and original remarks were investigated.
The surgical modifications, special contributions, and original remarks of Sabuncuoglu were as follows.
On the Cure of Hydrocephalus (Chapter 2)
Sabuncuoglu's instruments for incision and operation are modified forms of Zahravî's and ancient physicians' instruments. The scalpel he illustrates (Fig 1) for the incision is wider and has a sharp, pointed end. Instead of a cross-type incision, he used a special type (reversed T) incision as Zahravî did.
Sabuncuoglu was one of the earliest surgeons to use different drainage techniques and materials for neurosurgical procedures in paediatric cases. He stressed the danger of hemorrhage during neurosurgical operations and believed that contact of cerebrospinal fluid and blood was associated with a fatal outcome.
On the Incising of Ligament "Ribat" Below the Tongue. Which is an Impediment to Speech (Short Fremdum) (Chapter 34)
Sabuncuoglu uses the term "Ribat' as Zahravî to describe short fraenulum. He used a special lenticular cautery called "adesi daglagu" (Fig 2). He advocated a long postoperative drainage period for prevention of haematoma and infection.
On the Treatment of Boys Born With Imperforate Urinary Meatus or With the Meatus Small or Not in the Proper Place (Chapter 55)
In treatment of imperforate urinary meatus, a fine scalpel called a "mibza" was used (Fig 3). It differed from Zahravî's scalpel in that it was straighter. Sabuncuoglu used a tin sound with an intact lumen in paediatric urologic procedures in the postoperative period. Galen and Zahravî used leaden sounds with obliterated lumen.[6] However, Sabuncuoglu recommended a different method, which was to use a sound with a canal in it (like a tube) so that the patient can urinate through. In the treatment of urethral stenosis. Sabuncuoglu used a solid tin dilating tube and removed the tube after the dilating procedure.
In Sabuncuoglu's manuscript, the description and classification of hypospadias was more informative. In particular, the localization of urethral meatus was described in detail.
On Circumcision of Boys and Correction of Their Erroneous Treatment (Chapter 57)
Sabuncuoglu describes the use of bent scissors rather than the straight ones of Zahravî. He advises circumcision of the preputium by a single cut. For the correction of erroneous circumcisions performed by unqualified people practicing surgery, different repair methods are described by Sabuncuoglu.
On the Treatment of Hermaphroditism (Chapter 70)
Centuries ago. Paulus of Aeginae and Zahravî had already described genital ambiguities. But Sabuncuoglu made a detailed description and classification of the subject. He commented on the appearance of perineal region and clitoris.
On the Treatment of Unperformed Female Pudenda (Chapter 72)
Sabuncuoglu was the first to describe the classical position for gynaecologic examination. During manual division of the synechia between the two labiae, he covered the thumbs with special gauze to make the manipulation easy and not hurt the child. He recommended an oiled vaginal tampon for prevention of adhesions and recurrence. Paulus of Aegine provided the source for this anomaly. Celsus and Soraneus recommended using forceps and specula for this examination. For these types of procedures. Sabuncuoglu mentioned the importance of female physicians rather than the midwives favoured by Zahravî. Sabuncuoglu illustrated a "tabîbe" female physician operating on a patient.
On the Treatment of Superfluous Finger and the Separation of Webbed Fingers (Chapter 89)
Sabuncuoglu studied this subject under the title "yarligan" and "yincilmek" and used the special terms "artuk parmak" and "bitevi parmak." In the treatment of a superfluous finger arising at the root of a finger. Sabuncuoglu advised a twisting manoeuvre for amputation (a special technique). After the division of webbed fingers, special gauze soaked in rose oil was put between the fingers to prevent adhesions and recurrence. Sabuncuoglu was the first to advise placing a wooden splint under the palmer side after hand surgery for immobilization to enhance wound healing.
On the Treatment of Intestinal Hernia (Chapter 65)
Sabuncuoglu commented that hernias could be bilateral. He also gave a detailed description of the etiology, classification, and clinical types of inguinal hernias. He described a special drainage procedure for the scrotal pouch and a cauterisation technique for the drainage incision.
Imperforate Anus (Chapter 79)
In high anorectal atresia. Sabuncuoglu stressed intervention by a master surgeon rather than an inexperienced midwife to decrease the risks related with the levator muscle complex! Zahravî and Paul of Aeginea described this anomaly and gave some details of the procedure.
It was observed that the book of Serafeddin Sabuncuoglu, as claimed by others,[7] [8]contains not only pictures or miniatures of surgical and paediatric surgical procedures but also many important and major new contributions to the surgical literature originally described by Sabuncuoglu himself.[9] This historic book could also be accepted as the first paediatric surgical atlas. Its colourful, descriptive pictures of various operations and surgical instruments make it a significant piece of work. This important textbook combines knowledge of Greek. Roman. Arabic, and Turkish surgery and nourishes the basic concepts with Sabuncuoglu's original contributions on surgical procedures, postoperative care, and surgical instruments. Thus Greek Roman Arabic, and Turkish surgery combined extraordinarily and influenced the development of European surgery.

Abu al-Qasim Khalaf ibn al-Abbas Al-Zahrawi (936-1013 CE), also known in the West as Albucasis, was an Andalusian physician. He is considered as the greatest surgeon in the Islamic medical tradition. His comprehensive medical texts, combining Middle Eastern and Greco-Roman classical teachings, shaped European surgical procedures up until the Renaissance. His greatest contribution to history is Kitab al-Tasrif, a thirty-volume collection of medical practice, of which large portions were translated into Latin and in other European languages. Ibn Rushd: Harmony of Theological & Philosophical (Scientific) Truth by: FSTC LimitedIbn Rushd is perhaps the best known Muslim scholar of Cordoba who was instrumental in influencing European theology and epistemology. Here is a facinating glimpse into his role in establishing the role of reasoning in religious faith. Ibn Al Jazzar by: FSTC LimitedIbn Al Jazzar was one of the key experts in medicine whose compilations of knowledge were widely translated and utilized by the earliest universities in Europe. Muslims in Norman Sicily by: FSTC LimitedWhen the Normans took control of Sicily from the Muslims, they recognised the achievements of Muslims and Muslims together with their institutions continued to have a core role for centuries despite consternation elsewhere. Educating Ottoman Physicians by: Prof. Nil SariMedical doctors in the time of the Ottomans had various routes into professional life depending on their specialty. Some were trained on the model of master and apprentice, others studied courses at madrasas and at hospitals that also served as medical school

text: Seems like this job is taking forever. I'm using an orange LC pad with UC (speed 5). getting the oxidation off in about 3 steps but then having tough time really making it shine. Used swirl X after on the orange pad (speed 4), and with a white pad. Then was finishing with a M66 on a white. Havent worked with many single stage paints. This was the very best i could get it and can't seem to get the same results on the rest of the hood. My pads need to be cleaned? Any techniques for the singe stage i'm not aware of?

Jun 21, 2011 - Claremont, Calif. -
Greenway Design Group, Inc. is the innovator of "pre-cool" solutions, marketed under the trademark "Cool-n-Save," that reduce the cost of operating conventional air conditioning systems. Results from Greenway's customers show that Cool-n-Save evaporative pre-cooling systems may produce energy cost savings as high as 30 percent, with an average savings of about 26 percent from air conditioning use during peak heat seasons. The company has been developing pre-cool misting technology since 2005.
"We are grateful to have received this tremendous honor for our work of the last five years," says Darius Jakubik, Greenway's senior vice president. "Cool-n-Save could be the answer to a country in search of a way to significantly reduce energy consumption and cut carbon output. We developed Cool-n-Save to be cost-effective and practical. Many of our customers have seen enough savings to make up the cost of their investment in less than 12 months."
"Greenway has led the way in designing technology for energy-saving air conditioning systems," added David Money Harris, professor of engineering, who presented the award on behalf of the College and its engineering department. "I grew up in the Mojave desert, where evaporative cooling was the most cost-effective way to keep a building comfortable in the dry summers. It is exciting to see the technology applied to improve the efficiency of air conditioning by about 25 percent even in normal climates. As air conditioning is one of the major consumers of energy in the United States, this technology will make a huge impact."
Larry McKenna, inventor and Greenway Design Group CTO, and HMC engineering Professor David Money Harris.
The Cool-n-Save pre-cool system raises a "pre-cool shield" of treated water mist into the air around an HVAC unit. Flash evaporation causes the mist to evaporate almost instantly. The result is an adiabatic boundary, a shield that literally insulates the HVAC from excess heat. Ambient air temperature around the unit drops by as much as 30°F. That means that if the ambient air temperature is 98°F, Cool-n-Save will reduce it to 68°F. The air then acts on the fins and increases heat exchange efficiency.
Based in Huntington Beach, CA, Greenway Design Group, Inc. has been an innovator of commercial and residential solutions for HVAC systems that conserve energy and equipment since 2005. They sell do-it-yourself residential kits and, in 2008, began marketing commercial systems.
Two Certificate of Merit awards were also presented to finalists in the HMC Green Engineering category: Amonix, Inc., the leading designer and manufacturer of concentrated photovoltaic (CPV) solar power systems, and Fisker Automotive, an American premium electric vehicle manufacturer with a mission to redefine the luxury automobile.
The Harvey Mudd College Green Engineering Award Committee was led by Professor of Engineering, Harris, and included two other professors, two students, one trustee and external industrial members including the prior year's award winner, M2 Renewables.
The Green Engineering Award, established in 2008, was sponsored this year by Mavenlink LLC. Their CEO Ray Grainger '88, is also a trustee of Harvey Mudd College and chairman of the Finance and Budget Committee.

For 16 months, Coconut Creek Police officer James Yacobellis was put on paid leave while an investigation took place to see if holding a Taser at a suspect in a bathtub is a violation of the rules.
In his case, it isn't, the Broward State Attorney's Office eventually determined.
But while prosecutors investigated, Yacobellis, collected his full salary and benefits, costing taxpayers more than $100,000.
"Our hands were tied," said Coconut Creek Police Chief Michael J. Mann who, after conducting an internal review, doled out his own punishment: A two-week unpaid suspension for breaking the city's rules of conduct, which cost Yacobellis about $3,000.
In the months prior to the bathtub incident, Yacobellis had to fend off other complaints.
In the first, Yacobellis was discovered with a female officer inside a city recreational building, instead of being on patrol.
"Your actions demonstrate a blatant disregard, not only of department policy, but also for your responsibility as a law enforcement officer to behave in an ethical manner," Mann wrote after the May 2011 incident. "Please be advised that any further violations of this nature may result in further progressive disciplinary action, up to and including termination of your employment."
Just a month later, Yacobellis was accused of falsifying a report, saying he activated his lights and sirens in an attempt to pull a suspicious car over. The teens in the car said they didn't see the lights and sirens and didn't realize it was a police officer trying to pull them over. The driver was charged with possession of marijuana and fleeing the scene.
Then in August of the same year, he was called to a home where the residents said their daughter and her boyfriend had stolen jewelry.
Yacobellis took the boyfriend, 19-year-old Blake Robinson, into the bathroom for questioning. Yacobellis turned on the water in the sink, he said, to make sure the girlfriend couldn't hear what Robinson was saying.
When his partner, then-Sgt.Dominic Coppola, walked into the bathroom, Robinson was standing in the bath tub and Yacobellis had his Taser out, with the laser beam emitting. The Taser was pointed at the ground.
"Blake Robinson was speechless, with his hands down by his side and he appeared to have a blank, scared look on his face," Coppola wrote in his report.
According to Coppola, Yacobellis then said: "I was telling Mr. Blake here how my report was going to read when he resists arrest and I tase him."
Robinson was arrested on an outstanding warrant for an unrelated narcotics charge.
He later filed a complaint with the Coconut Creek Police Department about Yacobellis' questioning techniques.
"I never, ever expected Officer Yacobellis to do anything but his job correctly and professionally, but instead he began to threaten me and my life with his Taser gun pointed at me the entire time," Robinson wrote.
Although Yacobellis filled out an arrest report, he didn't include activating his Taser and telling Robinson to stand in the bath tub.
Yacobellis was put on paid leave while the State Attorney's Office investigated the June and August incidents.
In the end, investigator Stefanie Newman concluded there was "insufficient evidence that Officer Yacobellis engaged in any criminal activity."

MAC Men's Tennis Weekend Results
Updated 3/4/2013
Here is a look at last weekend's MAC men's tennis results.
Bulls Climb Over Highlanders, 5-2
WILLIAMSVILLE, NY – The University at Buffalo men's tennis team completed a weekend against New Jersey colleges as the Bulls defeated NJIT, 5-2, at the Miller Tennis Center on Sunday.
The Bulls (6-3) opened play by winning the doubles point. It was the first time that NJIT (9-3) had been denied the doubles point. At number one, UB's Damien David and Akhil Mehta knocked off Erik Arthursson and Petr Rousar, 8-5. The Bulls clinched the point as the number three team of Vusa Hove and Yevgeniy Jason Shkodnik defeated Andres Alban and Fraser Croad, 8-5.
UB then won the next three matches to be completed to claim the match. At number four, Pablo Alvarez defeated Rousar, 6-1, 7-5. Sebastian Ionescu, at number three, also picked up a straight sets win over Alban, 6-3, 6-4.
Damien David clinched the match for the Bulls at second singles as he defeated Holger Norregarrd, 7-6 (4), 6-3. Mehta also picked up a singles win at number six with a 6-2, 6-1 victory over Croad.
The Bulls returned to Western New York late Saturday night after falling at No. 55 Princeton, 7-0.
"This weekend was not an easy weekend and that's my fault. Scheduling is very tough when you want to play the top teams and to spend 17 ½ hours in a van over two days and still pull the match out is a testament to our team," said head coach Lee Nickell. "I'm proud of the way our guys fought. NJIT is a very good team."
The Bulls travel to Ivy League opponent Brown on Saturday, March 9 in their next action.

Men's Tennis Completes Weekend in Indy With Win Over IUPUI
, 5-2
INDIANAPOLIS, Ind. - Busting its non-conference skid Sunday afternoon, the Northern Illinois men's tennis team completed its weekend when it defeated IUPUI in Indianapolis, 5-2. The win is NIU's eighth of the season and puts the Huskies 8-4 on the season heading into their spring trip.
A day removed from being swept in doubles versus Butler, NIU won the doubles point against the Jaguars, winning at Nos. 1 and 3. Both pairs - Dor Amir and Axel Lagerlof at No. 1, and Frederic Cadieux and Jovan Zeljkovic at No. 3 - won their matches, 8-5, to clinch Northern Illinois' first point of the match.
Amir, Lagerlof and Cadieux made a sweep at Nos. 1-3 And Jovan Zeljkovic won at No. 5 in straight sets, 6-3, 6-4, over IUPUI in the match.
The Huskies were very near victory at No. 4 against IUPUIbut Simon Formont fell to Armaan Choudhary, 1-6, 6-2, 6-4.
After the match, Head Coach Patrick Fisher said "We just are not playing consistent right now. We're good one day, and not the next. We have to be honest with ourselves this first half of the season.
"We have two issues: consistent doubles play, and positions 4, 5 and 6. We have to improve in those two areas or we will be on the outside looking in (moving forward this season). On the flip side, we're very capable of doing that."
The Huskies will return to action Friday afternoon when it heads up to Milwaukee, Wis. for a match with Marquette.

"We dominated the doubles today and sometimes that makes the focus during singles hard to come by," head coach Al Wermer said. "But again, most of the guys dug in immediately, and others persevered later."
The Midnight Blue & Gold easily captured the doubles point with a sweep of all three matches. Sophomore duo Tomas Stillman and Nicky wong won in the top flight by a score of 8-2. Sophomore Grant Adams teamed up with senior Francisco Stuardo at No. 2 doubles for an 8-3 triumph, while freshman Ryan Jorgensen and senior Terence Weigand took the final match 8-1.

Stillman blanked 'Nova's Thomas O'Brien in the opening set 6-0 and took the second set 6-2 at No. 1 singles. Adams took the second flight for his 13th-consecutive victory in singles play.
Stuardo and Wong kept the ball rolling as each shutout their opponent in the first set at the third and fourth flights, respectively.
Weigand came close to another shutout in the second set at No. 5 singles, defeating Matt Colonnese 7-5, 6-1.
Villanova's only point came at the No. 6 position as Michael Rosengren defeated UT freshman Ryan Jorgensen in a close match 7-6, 6-4.
UT now holds a 3-1 advantage over Big East teams this season with previous wins over Georgetown and Marquette. The Rockets are also 2-0 outdoors after their last two wins.

Dudzik and Jorgensen Notch Third-Round Victory in Consolation Bracket at Pacific Coast Championships
LA JOLLA, Calif. - Two University of Toledo men's tennis doubles teams continued play in the consolation bracket at the USTA Pacific Coast Doubles Championships on Saturday. Both teams were eventually knocked out of the open draw tournament held at La Jolla Beach & Tennis Club, but the team played quality opponents while getting adjusted to playing outdoors again.
"One of the things you underestimate about being outside is the power of fatigue, especially in this hot, arid climate," UT head coach Al Wermer said. "But no excuses, we played some good quality matches in the tournament, which has some awesome talent."
The team consisting of senior Bryant Dudzik and freshman Ryan Jorgensen recorded the only victory of the day with a third-round triumph over William and Jim Kellogg. Dudzik and Jorgensen then matched up against UCSD's Octavian Papaluca and Jason Wall, but fell in three sets in the attempt to reach the consolation quarterfinals.

Broncos Drop Pair at HEB Tournament of Champions
CORPUS CHRISTI, Tx. - The Western Michigan men's tennis team competed in the first day of the HEB Tournament of Champions, hosted by Texas A&M - Corpus Christi, but the Broncos fell in both of their matches on Friday, losing to Lousiana-Lafayette 4-1 and #30 Brigham Young 4-2. With the losses, the Broncos fall to 8-7 on the season.
Ross VanderPloeg had an excellent day in singles, earning a pair of victories in No. 2 singles matches against the Ragin' Cajuns and the Cougars. The wins snapped a two-match losing streak for VanderPloeg, who has now won four of his last six matches. Also earning a singles victory on the day was Pablo Mora, who won his second of the day in the match against BYU.
The day began with a tight match against the Ragin' Cajuns, with the Broncos falling just short in their bid to advance to the semifinals of the weekend. Ross VanderPloeg notched the lone point for the Broncos in the match, defeating Jake Wynan 6-4, 6-2 in the No. 2 singles match.
The Broncos had a shot of taking two other singles matches, with Ruben Greiner and Pablo Mora each about to enter full third sets against their opponents in the Nos. 4 and 5 matches, respectively; Greiner took a second-set tiebreaker against Jarred Wynan, while Mora was in the middle of a second-set tiebreaker with Edgar Lopez.
The doubles session was a tight affair as well, with the Broncos just moments from making the third doubles match an integral part of the proceedings. Aaron Wong and Stephen Payne continued their recent strong play, but ultimately fell to Lopez and Jarred Wynan in the No. 2 doubles match. The pairing of Greiner and Nadin Indre were close to forcing a tiebreaker, but their No. 1 doubles match ultimately went unfinished.
The Broncos improved to two singles wins against the nationally-ranked Cougars in the evening session, but they fell just short in extending the match to doubles play, per the rules of the tournament. VanderPloeg won his second singles match of the day, defeating Spencer Smith 6-4, 6-4 in the No. 2 singles match. Mora earned his first overall win of the day, beating Andrey Goryachkov 6-4, 6-1 in the No. 5 singles match. Indre came the closest to extending the match, winning the first set of the No. 1 singles match before falling 5-7, 7-5, 6-3 to 47th-ranked Patrick Kawka.

NAACP thanks it's supporters for the $200,000 that helped fund four projects to help the country rebuild itself

Dear Editor:
Our work doesn't stop at America's borders, and I want you to know what your support has made possible.
In the wake of the devastating 2010 earthquake in Haiti, the NAACP funded four projects with the $200,000 that incredible NAACP supporters like you donated to help the country rebuild.
Last month, I had the chance to lead an NAACP delegation to Haiti to check on our progress. It was inspiring.
PHOTO: Santo Community — in Haiti.
Take a look at the photo album of our trip, and share it with others who would be interested in seeing the global impact of their NAACP support.
The four projects we helped fund were The Global Orphan Project, The Haitian Congress to Fortify Haiti, The Haiti Support Project, and Habitat for Humanity. They each provide a vital civil service severely lacking after a natural disaster — hot meals and education for Haitian youth, job initiatives, long-term sustainable community development, and home construction.
And, as you can see in the album, these projects are having a huge impact. I saw great struggle as I toured the country — but I also heard stories of triumph and survival. Folks who had once lived in tent cities, now living in homes — children who had lost their families, studying and smiling.
I was impressed with all the young civil society leaders we met — both Haitian nationals and Haitian Americans who had returned home to help their countrymen in a time of great strife. Our delegation met with Haitian President Michel Martelly to discuss civil rights and human rights as they relate to a number of important issues, including education, health care, and economic sustainability. The work of these amazing people, and supporters like you, make me believe the future for this nation is bright.
Take a look at the album to see our trip, and share it today:
To all who supported our efforts in the wake of the earthquake, thank you for making a tremendous difference.

The picking at the Trayvon Martin wound in Black America's heart and soul continues--as it should. A child is dead, a mother grieves, a community festers and the search for a credible outcome (even an incomplete one) is still ongoing. But reality is a cruel dictator. Nothing lasts forever.
NAACP Branch will hold a prayer vigil expressing the outrage on the Zimmerman verdict, the murder of Travon Martin and plans for future acts.
Long live the preacher; who also was the son and grandson of preachers. Long live the congressman who made history as the first African American Majority Whip of the U.S. House of Representatives, then the highest office any black official had ever achieved in our national government.
Cheerios commercials have a knack for being cute. Who remembers the little boy a few years ago singing "Nobody can say no to the honey nut oh in honey nut Cheerios, not your mama, not grandma, not even daddy…" I loved that commercial.

Luke 24:36–43; John 20:19–20, 24
Behold my hands and my feet, that it is I myself: handle me, and see; for a spirit hath not flesh and bones, as ye see me have. Luke 24:39
The Sunday evening after Jesus was resurrected, the Apostles and some other disciples were gathered together discussing the Resurrection. Suddenly Jesus appeared to them and said, "Peace be unto you" (Luke 24:36; see also John 20:19).
They were frightened because they thought they were seeing a spirit. Jesus asked, "Why are ye troubled?" (Luke 24:38; see also Luke 24:37).
"Behold my hands and my feet, that it is I myself: handle me, and see; for a spirit hath not flesh and bones, as ye see me have" (Luke 24:39).
Jesus showed them the wounds in His hands, feet, and side. To further prove to them that He was not a spirit but had a body, Jesus asked for something to eat. They gave Jesus a piece of broiled fish and a piece of honeycomb, and He ate in front of them. They were happy to see the Savior and to know He had been resurrected. (See Luke 24:40–43; John 20:20.)
Not long after His Resurrection, Jesus appeared to the Apostles and some other disciples. They were frightened because they thought He was a spirit. Jesus showed them the wounds in His hands, feet, and side and invited the members of the group to touch Him so they would know He was not just a spirit. Jesus also asked for food and ate fish and honey to show that He had a resurrected body. The Apostles and other disciples rejoiced to see their risen Lord.
