'Electronic Tattoos' Will Help Keep Tabs on Your Body
From The Kiplinger Letter, Dec. 6, 2013
Health monitoring gadgets will soon be as thin and flexible as bandages. "Electronic tattoos" are poised to hit the commercial marketplace next year. They'll stick to skin to monitor hydration, muscle activity, heart rate and more. Diabetics will be among the early adopters, using the sensors to check blood sugar and insulin levels. They're sure to catch on quickly with athletes and soldiers, too.
It Could Cost You to Save Money with a Bank
-- From The Kiplinger Letter, Dec. 6, 2013Advertisement
Will banks start charging depositors to hold their money? With the Fed mulling no longer paying banks any interest (now just 0.25%) to hold their reserves, It's unlikely, but possible.
At least that's what some bankers say will happen if the central bank stops paying interest on reserves, trying to spur banks to lend more rather than keeping money locked up. Banks will claim that if they don't earn interest on reserves, they'll need another way to recoup the costs of holding depositors' funds… administrative expenses and the fees paid to the Federal Deposit Insurance Corp.
Look for verbal sparks to fly over the matter in coming months, as the Fed prepares to taper off its bond buying and get banks to take up the stimulative baton.
Saudis to Retain Role in Balancing Oil Prices
-- From The Kiplinger Letter, Dec. 6, 2013Though U.S. dependence on Middle Eastern oil is waning, Saudi Arabia will continue to play an important role in global markets. The big petroleum producer will find ready buyers in oil-hungry China, Japan, India, South Korea and Europe to replace diminished sales to a more self-sufficient U.S. Thus, the Saudis will retain their influence over whether oil prices rise or fall.
Washington will rely on the Saudis to keep oil prices from whipsawing. The U.S. will continue to count on Saudi Arabia to open spigots during shortages and to reduce the flow when oil supplies are flush to keep prices in line.
Less reliance on Mideast petroleum gives Washington more leeway to shift its focus to growing tensions along the Pacific Rim. But by expanding a base in Bahrain, the U.S. is signaling that it has no plans to abandon the Middle East.
Police Monitoring Social Media for Crime Leads
-- From The Kiplinger Letter, Dec. 6, 2013Police officials are turning to software to monitor social media posts. It alerts them to keywords and phrases that may be linked to crime… drug sales, gang violence, sex crimes, etc. Such software can also help authorities keep a bead on people hunkered down during a tornado or other natural disaster.
But federal guidelines stress that police should have a valid reason to monitor posts on social media sites amid concerns about invasions of privacy. Moreover, posts shielded by privacy settings are legally off-limits to monitoring.
Among the software providers: SnapTrends, BlueJay and DigitalStakeout.
New Drugs on Deck to Treat Staph, Pneumonia and More
-- From The Kiplinger Letter, Nov. 27, 2013A slew of new drugs promise to tackle ailments that resist today's medicine:
A cure for staph-related skin infections, from Cubist Pharmaceuticals. It's on track for approval as soon as early 2014. The firm is also working on a drug for complicated abdominal and urinary tract infections, with approval a few years off.
Two new treatments for hepatitis C. Look for the first, from Gilead Sciences, to get the go-ahead from regulators in 2014. The second…being developed by AbbVie and Enanta Pharmaceuticals…is being expedited for approval as early as 2015.
Also expect a breakthrough heart failure treatment next year from Novartis.
And a major pneumonia drug, in late-stage tests at Cempra Pharmaceuticals.
Software to Take Over Advertising Sales Jobs
-- From The Kiplinger Letter, Nov. 27, 2013Automated online ad buying promises to cut costs for both publishers and advertisers in coming years. Now less than 20% of digital ad buying, it's likely to grow swiftly as the quality and quantity of available data skyrocket. Computers will accurately and automatically assess the value of ads to be placed on websites, determining optimum distribution and minimizing costs for advertisers. Meanwhile, publishers will need fewer sales reps, reserving them for sales of premium spots.
In time, such programmed buying will spread to other media, especially TV.
Snowden Disclosures Affect Trade Deals, Too
-- From The Kiplinger Letter, Nov. 27, 2013As if it weren't hard enough to negotiate market opening trade deals… The Edward Snowden affair is spurring demands for "no spying" clauses to be included in at least two proposed international pacts. Angela Merkel, Germany's chancellor, is demanding stringent new privacy protection rules as part of a proposed U.S.-European Union free trade deal. And some participants in 12-nation talks on the Trans-Pacific Partnership are making similar noises.
Pending trade deals aren't likely to come to fruition quickly in any case… late next year at best for the TPP, probably 2015 for the deal with Europe.
Steep Jump Coming for Post Office Mailings
-- From The Kiplinger Letter, Nov. 27, 2013A big increase in mailing costs, come late January...as much as a 3.7% hike for Postal Service delivery of first-class mail and other printed materials. A 1.7% increase is already in the bag, and by Christmas, the Postal Regulatory Commission will announce that it's giving the nod to a special additional jump of about 2%. Standard flats...large envelopes...may get a bigger increase than other products.
Stock Market Gains Fueling Retail Sales
-- From The Kiplinger Letter, Nov. 27, 2013One reason holiday spending might come in stronger than expected this year: Household net worth is rising well…the biggest increase since 2005. Robust stock market gains this year…with the S&P 500 up about 29% so far… and a double-digit climb in housing prices in many major markets mean consumers are feeling much better off these days. Typically, that spells more sales being rung up.
Every $100 rise in home equity spurs consumers to spend about $3 more and contribute less to savings. For every $100 in gains on stocks & bonds owned, they'll typically increase overall spending by about $1.50. Over the course of a year, that adds billions, and it may well give retailers a greater-than-expected boost in Dec.
Continued gains in wealth should also spell better spending growth in 2014.
Comparing Prices Online? The Store Would Like to Know
-- From The Kiplinger Letter, Nov. 22, 2013Some retailers are dabbling in high-tech eavesdropping on their customers, tracking their movements and smart phone browsing on store premises. The idea is for merchants to get shoppers' OKs to track and communicate with them through in-store Wi-Fi so stores can send customers personalized deals on products that they linger near. Retailers will also know when a shopper opens a browser to price check an item at a competing store, allowing them to match or beat the price. Best Buy and Walmart are among the first retailers to begin testing the concept. The jury is still out on whether shoppers will embrace the idea or just find it creepy.
Where Domestic Commercial Drones Will Be Deployed
-- From The Kiplinger Letter, Nov. 22, 2013Once the government OKs commercial drone use in the U.S. (and it will), business applications of drones will take off. In a variety of industries, burgeoning use of lightweight, unmanned aircraft will pack a big economic wallop, creating thousands of jobs for drone operators, data analysts, mechanics and others.
Among the early adopters: Farmers. They'll use camera-equipped drones to scan vast tracts of crops for early signs of pests, squashing infestations early.
Emergency responders . Look for drones to be deployed after tornadoes to search large areas for victims and after oil spills to detect which way oil is flowing.
Engineers. Drones will check bridges, pipelines and other infrastructure for wear, helping to replace time-consuming and dangerous in-person inspections.
And surveyors . Aerial mapping will be quicker and cheaper with drones.
The use of drones in civilian airspace will come with several restrictions, stemming from the Federal Aviation Administration's concerns about them interfering with existing aircraft. When the regulatory go-ahead is given…likely in 2015 or so… expect limits on how many drones are allowed to fly in certain areas, the altitude at which they can fly, the time of day they can operate plus privacy restrictions. Moreover, they'll have to be FAA approved and flown by licensed pilots. Odds are that drones weighing 55 pounds or less won't be as regulated as heavier ones.
Among manufacturers poised to benefit. are drone makers AeroVironment, General Atomics Aeronautical Systems, Lockheed Martin and CyPhy Works.
Obamacare Fallout: Higher Rates on Renewed Plans
-- From The Kiplinger Letter, Nov. 22, 2013Some folks who choose to renew canceled health coverage will get a jolt: Rate hikes of up to 15%. Expect some insurers to take the opportunity afforded by President Obama's move to allow renewals of policies that fall short of new federal standards to recoup other costs engendered by the 2010 health law. Other policyholders will discover that they can't reopen the policies they had this year even if they want to. It's up to the insurance firms and state regulators to decide whether to let policyholders re-up, though the president is allowing such a move.
As many as 4 million people may opt to keep their old plans for another year. About half of the 12.7 million Americans who buy insurance on their own have plans that don't meet the minimum coverage requirements of the new health insurance law.
Fewer Spots, Higher Prices at Public Colleges
-- From The Kiplinger Letter, Nov. 15, 2013Prospective public college students face a one-two punch from budget cuts: Tuition hikes two times as much as inflation and a harder time getting in. Many universities are capping enrollment, in part because of reduced state funding, so some qualified students end up having to attend community colleges instead.
Still, there are some bright spots as the pain of the deep recession recedes. Most community colleges expect state funds to increase for the second straight year… by about 4%. But rural community colleges will be hammered. And five states… Ga., La., Mo., N.C. and W.Va...see decreased public funds for all community colleges.
Wary Small Firms Won't Be Hiring Much
-- From The Kiplinger Letter, Nov. 15, 2013Continued uncertainty will keep small businesses from adding many jobs over the next six months, putting a damper on chances for robust economic growth. Three-fourths of firms with up to 500 workers have no short-term plans to expand. The recent uptick in mortgage rates is holding back some construction companies, while other smalls fret about uncertain prospects for sales growth, spending cuts from Washington and state capitals, and chances of another government shutdown. The just-ended shutdown helped drive down consumer sentiment to a two-year low.
But smalls in some regions will step up hiring, especially manufacturing… urban centers in parts of the Midwest (but not Detroit), eastern Fla. and the Southeast.
Candidates to Lean Heavily on Twitter in 2014
-- From The Kiplinger Letter, Nov. 15, 2013Twitter figures to be a big winner in the 2014 midterm elections. Ad spending on the social media network will be heavy, as candidates target news-hungry voters with messages tailored to different users' interests, ages and other individual qualities. Plus Twitter lets campaigns respond to news or criticisms faster than any other media. The surge in ads on the site will cause some grumbles, but most users will tolerate it.
The rise of tweeting also spells big profit opportunities for cable companies, which are increasingly partnering with Twitter to build up their audience. The goal: Reach new viewers on mobile devices by tweeting short clips of their programming. Twitter's reams of user data let broadcasters hit the right folks with the right show and better engage with the 19 million users who already tweet about what they watch.
Social media improves TV shows, too. Instant feedback from many viewers will clue producers in to what audiences do and don't like. They'll adjust accordingly.
Fed to Keep Stimulus Going Well into 2014
-- From The Kiplinger Letter, Nov. 15, 2013Good odds that the Federal Reserve will dial back stimulus later, not sooner. The retreat from its massive bond buying program had been expected to begin as early as the end of this year. But it's likely to be put off well into 2014, based on Fed Chairman-to-be Janet Yellen's interpretation of the underlying data. Despite recent improvement in job creation numbers, Yellen sees the job market as underperforming and inflation as staying stable. Those are some broad hints that the Fed will stay the course and keep buying $85 billion in bonds each month.
Next to no chance, though, of the central bank raising short-term rates soon. No matter when the weaning begins, no official hike is likely until sometime in 2015.
A Time Capsule on Kennedy's Presidency Opened
-- From The Kiplinger Letter, Nov. 15, 2013Lost in many dewy-eyed tributes 50 years after President Kennedy was killed: His presidency was bogged down as he made the fateful trip to Dallas. A sober assessment of Kennedy's first three years in office was the planned front page for the Nov. 23, 1963, issue of The Kiplinger Letter. It cited the president's troubles with Congress and loss of popular support for his legislative agenda. However, the article concluded, "The odds as of now still favor Kennedy for reelection."
Kiplinger's assessment was pulled after he was slain, and never published -- until now. You can read the original draft and the Letter that replaced it... four pages focused on President Johnson...at kiplinger.com/letterlinks/jfk.
Sebelius Likely to Resign Health Job in Early '14
-- From The Kiplinger Letter, Nov. 15, 2013The political sands have shifted for President Obama's health care guru. Look for Health and Human Services Sec. Kathleen Sebelius to leave, perhaps early next year. She'll offer to step down, and the president will accept. He turned her down before, but next time she offers to fall on her sword, she goes.
Obama won't delay the coverage mandate for a year under any conditions, except for folks whose existing individual policies are being canceled by carriers because they don't meet minimum coverage requirements in the law. They can keep the policies for a year if insurers agree, but won't get a subsidy. Obama plans to order the change but will allow a vote if it gives Democrats cover in next year's elections. They'll say they forced the president to make the change.
He's also likely to approve another delay in the effective date of penalties for those who choose not to buy insurance...for a month or two beyond March 31.
States Promoting Alternative-Fuel Vehicles
-- From The Kiplinger Letter, Nov. 8, 2013 U.S. Winemakers Eager to Fill China's GlassesRising wine consumption around the world is good news for U.S. vintners, who will eagerly work to increase exports to fill the glasses of consumers everywhere.
China offers the richest growth market for the American wine industry. Calif., which exports 20% of its wine output, has high hopes of hiking export sales to increasingly affluent Chinese consumers, who already buy 5% of Calif.'s exports. Folks in Japan, South Korea and other Asian nations are also drinking more vino… a boon to makers of Zinfandel and other varieties that pair well with spicy food. And with European winemakers raising prices, U.S. wines are gaining in Europe, too.
Though growing ranks of wine sippers spark talk of a global wine shortage, we think such fears are overblown. Winemakers will keep up with demand.
States Promoting Alternative-Fuel Vehicles
-- From The Kiplinger Letter, Nov. 8, 2013Note a push by states to rev up demand for alternative fuel vehicles. California and seven other states want 3.3 million electric or hydrogen-fueled cars and trucks on their roads by 2025, and they're rolling out plans to make that happen. Calif. would have the bulk, followed by Conn., Md., Mass., N.Y., Ore., R.I. and Vt.
Expect stepped-up tax credits for buyers who take the plunge, on top of aid from Uncle Sam for folks who purchase electric, fuel cell or plug-in hybrid vehicles.
An infrastructure build-out is also in the works. Calif. will spend $20 million per year on 100 hydrogen refueling stations. It also anticipates 2,500 new stations to quickly recharge electric cars. The other seven states are considering similar moves.
Federal Funds Going to Recreational Boating Facilities
-- From The Kiplinger Letter, Nov. 8, 2013Congress will pass and Obama will sign a bill benefiting boating enthusiasts and tourism-oriented businesses along many of the nation's smaller harbors. The measure directs the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers to spend more of its resources on expanding "emerging harbors," which handle less than 1 million tons of cargo a year and are also typically home to popular marinas and many water recreation activities.
Among harbors in line for dredging and expansion: Port Orford, Ore.; Monterey, Calif.; Tiverton, R.I.; Wells, Maine; Manistee, Mich.; and Hickman, Ky.
2013 Elections Have Few Lessons for 2014, 2016 Races
-- From The Kiplinger Letter, Nov. 8, 2013Hidden in the mixed bag of gubernatorial election results in N.J. and Va.:
A boost for Republicans. Disdain for the health law translated into votes. Big shares of voters in both states oppose President Obama's health mandate… 50% in N.J., 53% in Va…and they overwhelmingly chose Republican candidates.
That dislike will probably linger, especially if the Obama administration can't fix problems with the enrollment website anytime soon. On the other hand, voter frustration over the government shutdown...generally helping Democrats… is sure to fade by next fall unless more shutdowns occur, which is unlikely.
But don't look for many other national lessons in the N.J. and Va. results. For starters, the outcomes don't suggest anything at all new about 2016, despite what you may hear elsewhere about the impact on the presidential race.
N.J. Gov. Chris Christie is the GOP front-runner. But a question remains: Is he conservative enough to win the Republican nomination in 2016? To be sure, he'll face opposition from the party's right, just as Mitt Romney did in 2012. Even if he is the nominee, the primary fight will cost money and energy.
It's also premature to read the results as a sign of tea party weakness. The tea party-backed candidate lost in Va., but by only a narrow margin. Though opposition for what that wing of the party stands for was above 40% in both states, much of it came from Democrats unlikely to back any GOPer.
U.S. Firms Could Help Clean China's Air
-- From The Kiplinger Letter, Nov. 1, 2013Thick smog in China spells business opportunities for U.S. companies. Beijing is rolling out a five-year, $270-billion plan to clean up dirty skies, and American firms that sell pollution control gear are poised to cash in on the push.
Already in high demand: Equipment to control nitrogen oxide, from buyers such as power plants and steelmakers. And more orders for smog-reducing filters and many other types of controls are a sure bet as the outcry over air pollution grows. But note that navigating the Chinese market can be tough for firms new to China.
Tax Credits for Private School Gain Favor
-- From The Kiplinger Letter, Nov. 1, 2013State programs offering tax credits for private school tuition will grow. Ala. and S.C. set up tax credit programs this year. Six other states…Ga., Ind., Iowa, Pa., R.I. and Va...are expanding existing programs, and more want to. The credits are nearly as controversial as vouchers. Backers say they'll help students in areas where public schools aren't up to snuff. Critics say they'll hurt public schools even more and cut state tax revenues. Credits are typically $3,000 to $5,000 a year.
Why Elephants are Terrorists' New Target
-- From The Kiplinger Letter, Nov. 1, 2013Groups with terrorism ties in Africa have a new way to fund themselves: Killing elephants and selling their ivory tusks on the global black market, where a pair can bring tens of thousands of dollars. That's an attractive bounty for radical anti-Western groups looking for a way to bankroll recruiting and training. Selling new ivory was outlawed by international treaty in 1989. The illicit market developed almost immediately, but till now has largely been the work of individuals. Without funds from the U.S. to battle poachers (unlikely), little progress is expected.
Government College Rating Won't Help with Tuition
-- From The Kiplinger Letter, Nov. 1, 2013Uncle Sam's college rating system will prompt many to alter programs. But it may not meet its main goal: Slowing the pace of tuition increases. Under a plan pushed by Obama, federal loans would be tied to college performance, with higher-rated schools attracting more federal loans than average-rated schools. It's a big business, so colleges and universities are sure to seek the best grades to grab a piece of the federal aid pie…once they know how they'll be measured.
The plan: Have the system ready before 2015, with rating-based financial aid to follow two or three years later. The data should make students better shoppers. They can compare schools or even majors, including pay earned by graduates.
Software to Predict Your Future (and Destroy Your Privacy)
-- From The Kiplinger Letter, Nov. 1, 2013If the idea of Uncle Sam listening in on your phone calls spooks you… Get a load of this: Businesses will soon be able to forecast your future.
Already, cutting-edge predictive analytic technology, using publicly available data, can forecast where you're likely to be…at home, the office, school, in the car, etc… on any given day a year or more in the future. Also…future income, illnesses, number of pregnancies, credit score, driving record, criminal activity and more.
Mash-ups of info from various sources will yield a detailed picture of you, surmising your Social Security number from bits of available data, for example. Also...discerning your identity by knowing four locations you've recently been at.
Promised anonymity will mean little. Software can tease out an identity by matching metadata…aggregated information about anonymous individuals… with other data specifically about you, revealing what was supposed to be hidden.
For now, most of this technology is in the research stage and not available. Within five years, it's likely to be in business's hands and widely used, sparking legal and technological measures intended to protect people's privacy.
Regulation will come slowly, and private companies will likely delve deep before consumer resistance forces them to backtrack. They'll become more open about what data is collected and how it is used. They may even pay for it.
Smart Phones to Pack Even More Brains
-- From The Kiplinger Letter, Oct. 25, 2013Don't be surprised if smart phones and tablets start getting a lot smarter. The reason: Developers are noodling with software that works like a brain. It will allow apps to make swifter decisions, recognize objects seen by the camera, shut off message features when you're driving and track vital signs when you exercise. Chip maker Qualcomm will give app developers access to its new software next year. Similar efforts by Apple and others will follow. In time, updated processors and chips that provide vast computational power but use little energy will be built into phones. The smarter phones will be able to "teach" your preferences to other electronic devices.
In three to five years, look for interactive holograms on your smart phone and tablet. They're being tested in laboratories at Hewlett-Packard and other firms, but for now the technology is too expensive and needs too much energy for wide use.
The three-dimensional imaging will have practical business applications… making easier-to-understand data presentations, controlling devices remotely, etc. More-realistic online shopping, too, plus better gaming and entertainment applications.
Eventually the technology will be used on watch faces and other surfaces.
Small Fixes Only for Nation's Locks, Dams
-- From The Kiplinger Letter, Oct. 25, 2013A mixed outlook for inland shippers dealing with delays at locks and dams: New funding from Uncle Sam will take some time. Current funding levels cover just a fraction of the repairs on the Army Corps of Engineers' to-do list... needed to speed traffic and avoid accidents at structures built decades ago. Many shippers are willing to pay higher U.S. diesel taxes to fund river repair projects, but Congress is in no hurry to increase federal matching funds allocated for the jobs.
So...many key projects will go wanting for now, including about two dozen that have received congressional approval but lack the money to finish the work.
Small improvements will be made, once lawmakers pass a measure to streamline processes for selecting and approving lock and dam projects. Both parties in Congress back such changes, which could come as soon as this fall.
National Guard, Coast Guard Upgrading Equipment
-- From The Kiplinger Letter, Oct. 25, 2013The National Guard is in line for secondhand gear and a refocused mission: Trying to slow the flow of narcotics into the U.S. Items from Afghanistan and Iraq…trucks, armor and artillery…will filter down to Guard units in the next year or two. In addition to the surplus, the Guard will receive communications equipment that will boost intelligence-gathering capabilities vital in the fight against drugs. The gear is coming at a key time: The Guard's budget has been slammed by sequester.
The Coast Guard is bulking up, too. Its fleet expansion will come to an end by the middle of the next decade. Thanks to the expanded role of U.S. law enforcement following creation of the Dept. of Homeland Security, the Coast Guard's inventory is growing quickly. In the mix: Eight Legend-class cutters, with extended ranges and the ability to launch helicopters, drones and smaller boats. Six smaller cutters, designed for fast response. Plus an icebreaker that will go into service next decade. About $8 million in start-up money for the polar ship is in the federal cash pipeline. The rest of the $852-million estimated cost will have to be allocated in coming years.
That's good news for shipbuilders and subcontractors across the country.

MILWAUKEE (AP) — Brewers right-hander Marco Estrada was forced to leave the game after sustaining a right leg injury while running out a double in the first inning Wednesday against San Francisco.
Estrada pulled up after rounding first base, then gingerly ran to second without a play as left-fielder Melky Cabrera retrieved the ball.
After stretching the leg and talking to trainers and manager Ron Roenicke for a few minutes, Estrada slowly walked off the field. Zack Greinke pinch ran for Estrada, and Manny Parra replaced him on the mound.
Estrada's double down the left-field line scored two runners and gave Milwaukee a 6-0 lead off San Francisco starter Barry Zito.
Estrada had thrown a perfect inning in the top of the first. He is 0-3 with a 4.50 ERA in 11 games.

Here's How Corporate Executive Board May Be Failing You
Tue, 14/12/2010 - 12:30 by Seth Jayson
Margins matter. The more Corporate Executive Board (NYSE: EXBD) keeps of each buck it earns in revenue, the more money it has to invest in growth, fund new strategic plans, or (gasp!) distribute to shareholders. Healthy margins often separate pretenders from the best stocks in the market. That's why I check on my holdings' margins at least once a quarter. I'm looking for the absolute numbers, comparisons to sector peers and competitors, and any trend that may tell me how strong Corporate Executive Board's competitive position could be. |

God I hope this rumor is true, i'm nearly done MGS 2 and i'm loving it. I love the extras in Substance but the only problem is that they say a lot of stuff about MGS1, sure I should go buy mgs1 for the psone but the graphics are shit. I really hope this rumor is true, anyone got info on it?
Who cares about the graphics? Seriously, MGS had pretty good graphics, some of the best for it's time. It shouldn't be that big of a deal.
Yeah good point but there might be extras i'll go for another week and if theres no word on this rumor i'll be taking a trip to EB games for a gamecube... i've caved in.
There's no need to pay $150 bucks for a GCN and MGS:TS. Just get the original. It's like 13 bucks.
Geez...the original is already considered one of the best games of all time, the graphics and slight extras aren't worth 100 and something dollars.
I have 300 to burn and that was for HDD and a bunch of other games coming out. And the fact that there are a lot of GCN games that everyone is raving about here so I might as well pick it up.
MGS for the psx was great the graphics doesnt bother me that much but the gamecube version looks a lot cooler though. But twin snakes is made by silcon knights though.
Thats you my friend, I used to think that PS1's graphs were the ultimate and they were so smooth but as soon as PS2, DreamCast, etc came out it looked like shit and I dont understand whats going happining on the screen.
TTS CAN'T come to PS2, and if it's the story your after, then the remake is worth it, it has 3 hours of cut scenes, while original has only 90 minutes.
Don't say that, Silicon might do this, they're not bought by nintendo, atleast I dont think so.
No, they are.
Yeah, SK is owned by Nintendo. Not happening unless another company does another conversion.
Well no, because it was made when it was owned by Nintendo, is it being published by Nintendo or Konami?
Konami. Just like Sega (AV) made F-Zero and Nintendo published it.Originally Posted by Notedog
i dont think it would come to PS2. Just get a gamecube. Not only can you get MGS, but also Eternal Darkness, the Resident Evil series, and all the other great games out on it. It is worth the purchase.
Nintendo bought Silicon Knights for 1 million dollars and we have gotten Eternal Darkness and MGS: TTS yet M$ buys Rare for $370 million and gets Grabbed by the Balls.

Police: Car hits patrol car and forces flat bed tow truck into house in Greece
Posted at: 01/22/2013 2:45 PM | Updated at: 01/22/2013 9:09 PM
A driver hits a patrol car, runs a stop sign and forces a flat bed tow truck to crash into a parked car and a house. Police in Greece says that all happened Tuesday afternoon at the intersection of New Prince Drive and Fetzner Road.
Police say investigators were at Kingsberry Apartments off Fetzner Road when they tried to speak with a man about an investigation. Police say that man got into a car and drove off, hitting the patrol car.
A short time later, the crash happened. Police say the man suffered arm and facial fractures. The driver of the flatbed does not appear to be seriously injured.
Police say officers came upon the crash while looking for the man and were not pursuing it. They say the investigation they wanted to talk to the man about is ongoing and they won't release any further information at this time.

Daisy is a reporter for Action 4 News.
He liked steak and garlic potatoes. He was the kind of guy who would stay-up late helping a friend in need - a friend who loved with all his heart. He was at his best when it came to serving in the U.S. Army. A man with a distinct trademark. "Ask anyone around who Spc. Kurt Kern was," his platoon leader said, "they might not know him by name, but they'll know him by smile." During a Mass to honor the fallen soldier, friends, family and fellow soldiers said they would remember U.S. Army Spc. Kurt Kern for his smile. An improvised explosive device killed the 24-year-old while on patrol in Afghanistan December 27. Close friend Lauren Saca said serving his country was something Kern always wanted to do. "When he was going to culinary school…he was really, really passionate about that…he saw that he liked that, but something was still kind of missing," Saca said. "There was still a piece that hadn't been filled (and) over time, he moved back to McAllen, and joined the army since he wanted to do so since he was a child." Elizabeth Garza didn't know the soldier personally, but attended his funeral because she said his smile captivated her, compelling her to show her gratitude for his self-less service. "It hurts me so much that we're at war," Garza said. "This young man died for his country, so that we can have freedom. Many people who didn't know him came to show their respects, because we support the family and all those who fight for our great country." Planes flew over Rio Grande Valley State Veterans Cemetery where Kern was laid to rest. His family said although he's physically gone, he lives on in their hearts. "We're going to miss him and there's always going to be a space - empty space in our hearts for him," Kern's brother said during the Mass. "But his memory, and what he's left behind, that's going to be with us forever." "The Kurt Kern" as some friends called him, is the 43rd Valley serviceman to die in wars in Iraq or Afghanistan since 2003. "We are losing the radiant glow of somebody who is irreplaceable," Saca said.

Elizabeth Marshall Thomas
Publisher: Collins
Publication Date: 2009
Binding: Hardcover
Your Satisfaction is Guaranteed:
The author describes the vast hidden world she discovered after she observed deer as they fought through a rough winter, bred fawns in the spring, fended off predators and hunters, and made it to the next fall, in a book by the best-selling author of
"In this slim and amiable book Ms. Thomas gathers a pile of small, not uninteresting observations about deer, and in doing so she subtly alters the way you look at them in a forest or from a window."
Dwight Garner, New York Times, 10/01/2009
Review:"[E]legantly written....If you are interested in an insightful examination, for instance, of the deer's fascinating ability to hide itself...then Thomas will delight."

We've been sitting, waiting for bug reports to come in on the pre-release versions of ProofBuddy. The pre-release versions of ProofBuddy 2.1 were downloaded around 250 times. And we're tired of waiting. Okay, really any known bugs have been squashed and our internal tests have turned up nothing new since the 4th beta of 2.1; so we're ready to release.
What's New?
We'll get a full list of new features out, but here are a few for now.
- Flash Uploader – Instead of the simple file field, there is now a Flash uploader that should fix all sorts of issues. On the backend, ProofBuddy thinks that each file uploaded through Flash is an individual file so the file size limits are not there. Plus, you can select as many files as you want. ProofBuddy will queue them up and upload one at a time. The FTP option is still there though.
- Switched from Prototype to jQuery JavaScript library (mostly) – Most pages are using the jQuery library, and related jQuery UI and datatables, instead of the Prototype library. We found that we could develop faster with jQuery and the available plugins for jQuery made it a better choice. Some pages are still using Prototype, although they will get switched out in later versions.
- Image processing hooks – We've made the image uploading process much more open to plugins. For now, you won't see much difference. But the new hooks open up the possibility for plugins to work with images while they're uploading.
- Error page – At the request of several users, we've simplified the page that comes up when ProofBuddy comes up with an error. It is now just simple black text rather than the page with the ProofBuddy logo in previous versions.
- Plugin and Theme installer – You can now browse the theme and plugin libraries from within ProofBuddy and install directly by entering your FTP information.
- Currency Symbols – You can now change the currency symbol system wide. There are many levels of customization possible, but for a majority of users simply changing the symbol under options will be enough.
- More caching – Requests to our server for things like the RSS feed and theme and plugin lists are now cached in the database instead of in a file.
- Home folder – ProofBuddy now automatically determines where it is located on your server. This may not matter to you, but it will help if you ever need to move ProofBuddy to a new server.
Rather than re-write the instructions, I'm going to point you to the upgrade instructions on our wiki.
Pro Users
ProofBuddy 2.1 is a free upgrade for users who are currently using version 2.0 Pro. You will need to get in touch with us when you're ready to upgrade so that we can update the version you have registered in our database.
You can get ProofBuddy 2.1 at our download page. You can also always visit www.proofbuddy.com/latest.zip to get the latest stable release.
Found an issue?
Of course software is never really finished, so if you come across an issue with ProofBuddy please let us know either by sending us a comment or posting on our support forum.

Old Saybrook — The owner of Mike's Deli is due in court next week to answer to charges he made inappropriate sexual contact with three of his employees, according to police.
Michael Fowler, 55, of Kitteridge Hill Road, Old Saybrook, was arrested Friday on the strength of three arrest warrants and charged with one count of disorderly conduct and seven counts of fourth-degree sexual assault, which are Class A misdemeanors.
Police said the alleged victims in the case are employees. While the arrest warrant affidavit containing details of the allegations is sealed, public court records show three victims allege misconduct on seven different occasions, between Sept. 1, 2012, and Jan. 26.
Fowler is free after posting a $20,000 bond and is scheduled to appear Sept. 3 in Middletown Superior Court.
Do you think the U.S. should strike Syria for the alleged deadly chemical weapons attack?

Chromosomes are tiny structures in the cells of the human body that contain roughly 30,000 to 35,000 gene pairs. The genes determine traits like eye and hair color, and also how our bodies grow and develop in the womb. Each person normally has 23 pairs of chromosomes (43 in all), inheriting one chromosome per pair from each parent. Unlike other cells in the body, sperm and egg cells only have 23 unpaired chromosomes; when a sperm and egg unite, they form a fertilized egg with all 46 chromosomes. But sometimes, in the process of cell division, an error occurs, so that a sperm or egg cell has too many or too few chromosomes. Scientists don't know what exactly causes this, but the resulting embryo has a chromosomal abnormality. About 70 percent of such pregnancies result in a miscarriage, but if carried to term, the baby could have any number of disorders because of the abnormality.
Down syndrome is the most common of these disorders, affecting about 1 in every 800 to 1,000 live-born babies. Down syndrome babies have three copies of a particular chromosome instead of two. Children with Down syndrome suffer from mental retardation, heart defects, and overly round, smooth facial features.
Babies born with extra copies of other chromosomes can be severely retarded with many physical birth defects; most die before their first birthday. Other chromosomal abnormalities include small missing sections of the chromosome; a missing single gene; a section of one chromosome attaching itself to another; and a chromosome that is somehow snipped out and reinserted upside down in the sequence.
What is hCG ?
Human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG) is a hormone produced by a woman's placenta during pregnancy, released into the blood and urine. It helps maintain the pregnancy and helps the development of the fetus. HCG levels are what is measured in pregnancy tests. When measured along with other hormone levels, hCG levels can also be used to detect Down syndrome.

The actress's makeup artist shares his top-notch techniques for achieving a blush-worthy classic look.
"We went for fresh rock-and-roll eyes with stained berry cheeks and lips to keep the look feminine and ethereal. I lined her eyes with Votre Vu Le Joli Soft Eye Liner on top and bottom, but made it thicker on top. Then, I smudged the liner with Q-Tips to slightly blur the line so that it was dark, but not harsh. The finishing touches were hints of berry on the cheeks and lips using Votre Vu Vu-On Rouge in Ma Cherry."

Online Certificate Programs – Online Diploma & Certification Programs
An online certification program is a series of classes centered around a specific, specialized topic area. They are designed to either: equip students with the knowledge necessary to advance to higher level of study or prepare students to gain a credential necessary for their profession. Schools offer certificate programs at... the undergraduate or graduate levels, though a number of institutions also offer continuing education certificate programs that are open to students at all levels. Certificate programs are typically completed in six months or less, requiring anywhere from 3 to 9 classes for completion.
Earning a certificate from an online college provides a convenient, flexible way to learn, though the rigors of the coursework are certainly no less and no easier than the traditional classroom experience. Students can expect to spend approximately two and a half hours each week corresponding with instructors and classmates, as well as working on assignments. A range of portable media are used in certificate programs, such as videos, podcasts, and ebooks. Legitimate, accredited academic institutions offering online certificate programs have been evaluated by either a national or regional accreditation agency. Every accreditation agency recognized by the U.S. Department of Education and the Council for Higher Education Accreditation (CHEA) conducts a regular review of faculty, curricula, and administrative practices to ensure that schools uphold certain educational standards.
Enrollment into an online certificate program varies by level and topic of study. Schools offering certificate programs online also vary in their course requirements, such as class schedules, assignment deadlines, and classroom participation.

o imagine that Frankenstein's monster and his lovely, striped bride lived happily ever after. Where would they be today?
Sapulpa Community Theatre has an idea involving Dracula's Transylvanian castle having been transformed, and it will be on display this week and next as the troupe presents Monster Retirement Home, a show SCT is presenting as a fundraiser.
Karen Lee Maio, who works as the administrative theatre manager for SCT, talked about the upcoming show, offering that it has something for pretty much everyone in this show written by one of SCT's own, Donna F. Carter
"She spent a lot of time going to those kinds of movies as a kid," Maio said. "She got to thinking what would they be like and where would they be now that they're older. It's a farce, but not necessarily slapstick.
Carter's past works for SCT have been in the comedic vein, so SCT audiences won't be surprised by any stretch.
Besides the lumbering, reanimated icon, Monster Retirement Home has other classic monsters, and a couple of not-so-classic characters.
"There are 12 in the cast," Maio said. "Frankenstein and his bride, Dracula, Igor, there's a wolf-woman, there's DHS-kind of woman who comes to check out the home, and there's a hilarious lady that has them doing 'cane fu,' an exercise program with their canes."
Retired monsters or not, "cane fu" sounds pretty freaking hilarious.
As previously mentioned, the "DHS-kind of woman" shows up, bringing one of the narrative forces of the show with her, in that not only are the monsters dealing with being old, but there arises the question as to whether the woman is there to shut down the retirement home. And come on, if Igor and the Mad Scientist get put out of their current dwelling, it's not like anyone at Montereau will be taking them in.
So there's also a lovesick monster, there are the day-to-day operations issues that Dracula faces (he's the one who runs the joint), and all manner of things causing wackiness to ensue. Monster is sure to be a family-friendly fun time.
In addition to writing the show, Carter also serves in several capacities at SCT, not the least of which is donating her writing abilities.
"She is on our board of directors, and we've done two of her things before as fundraisers, primarily because there are no royalties involved," Maio said. Score one for pragmatism. "It's a fundraiser, and the script is free. She writes cute stuff, and we needed something to do at Halloween for our families."
So a match made in heaven. Or monster Xanadu. Or something.
As mentioned above, Carter -- like many community theater-ites -- wears more than one hat on most days.
"The last one of hers that we did was Too Many Husbands, and we've done other plays of hers," Maio said. "And actually, Donna is our costumer, as well, and she does a marvelous job. She checks thrift shops and puts things together, or she makes them. She's had fun doing this one. She has a theater background from college, and now she spends her life at the theater, as most of us do."
Although Monster Retirement Home is presented as a fundraiser, there are expenses involved in it, as well as in the day-to-day operations of SCT. While this show is designed as a fundraiser to help defray those costs over the course of the year, Monster isn't without production costs. However, everyone is chipping in.
"Being a community theater, it's all local volunteer actors and crew. They're all just working really hard to put on a good show," Maio said.
She also bemoaned the general state of all things theatrical in the face of the train wreck we think of as today's economy.
"With grant money cut across the nation, we're not able to subsidize every show anymore," she said. "Besides, with those kinds of funds, we're not allowed to use them for anything other than production costs, anyway."
And lower grant money isn't the only consequence of the current economic climate.
"Attendance is down in the entire area. Witness the opera and things like that that are giving two-fers," Maio said. "Community theaters have been hit harder by the economy. People are choosing to feed their families rather than go to the theater. But we're hopeful that we have something family-friendly, so we'll have a good audience."
So with no royalties needed, no paid actors or crew, all that's left to cover are utilities, and after that, SCT can get to work on specific projects for which some of the proceeds of Monster are earmarked.
"Everything left over will go back into the operating funds and for keeping up our building, which is 65 years old. We're sort of in a constant upkeep mode," Maio said. "We have several projects that need to be worked on around the theater -- like, we've got a leaky wall, things of that nature -- just general maintenance issues."
And while a big, fat audience would give a big, fat check, Maio and crew are realistic.
"We're hopeful that we can fix everything, but it's not likely," she said.
Still, she's upbeat about what is shaping up to be an entertaining evening.
"We have a semi-professional makeup artist, so the makeup is going to be very fun," she said. "The wolf-woman has facial hair, and she wins a visit to the local fancy spa, so she gets a kind of makeover. And they have some musical dance steps that they're going to be doing -- you can imagine Frankenstein clomping around in his big boots and causing quite a stir."
The Bride of Frankenstein always had at least some white in her hair, so it's not like we never imagined her in her old age.
SCT presents Monster Retirement Home October 19-21 and October 26-28. Shows are at 7:30pm, and Sunday matinees at 124 S. Waters St., Sapulpa, starting at 2pm.

#AskCoachB: Favorites for Richardson
@PaulBiancardi #AskCoachB With Malachi Richardson making his college decision on Friday, does Villanova have a chance? #myfirsttweet
— Andy Kaiser (@AKaiser25) December 11, 2013
@Akaiser, thank you for making your first tweet to ESPN Recruiting Nation! Malachi Richardson is ranked No. 12 in the Class of 2015, and the 6-foot-5 shooting guard recently cut his list to six schools: Syracuse, Villanova, Rutgers, Arizona, Indiana and UConn.
Nova is involved because of the early effort and relationship coach Jay Wright made with Richardson in his freshman year. He's been on the Villanova campus several times and it's close to home. He recently visited Syracuse for their game against Indiana.
The school that lands this big=time shooter with offensive polish will be getting a bona fide 3-point shooter who strokes it with confidence. Richardson can pass and play defense, too, as he is not afraid to take a charge. I have seen him with his AAU club Team Final, which has had many outstanding Division I players and some high major stars such as Dion Waiters, Michael Kidd-Gilchrist, Rondae Hollis-Jefferson, just a few players coached by Rob Brown.
I believe it will come down to Nova and Syracuse for Richardson.
Getting creative to finish 2014 classes
1. Analyze and evaluate: At this point, odds are that programs aren't finding a diamond in the rough that is going to come in and put up huge numbers from Day 1. That doesn't mean good players can't be found. The best way to find value in an oversaturated market is to pinpoint the specific niche that you're looking for. The most cohesive teams are ones that are built with a combination of dynamic playmakers and what Seth Greenberg has dubbed "blend" players -- guys who do whatever is necessary for the good of the team, and there are still plenty of those types of players to be found. Whether you're looking for an outstanding perimeter defender, offensive ball-mover, or court-spacer the key is to know exactly what your roster needs and evaluate specifically for your system while also accounting for intangibles, like toughness and unselfishness, necessary to thrive in such a role.

#AskCoachB: Josh Cunningham update
@PaulBiancardi #askcoachb not a lot of talk about Josh Cunningham. Where do u think he ends up? Iowa State still in the mix?
— Jamie McCullough (@jmccullo) December 9, 2013
His recruiting is still wide open and he has not narrowed down a final list of schools. According to his AAU coach Lance Irvin, Cunningham lists Iowa State among many others at this point such as Oklahoma, Creighton, Minnesota, South Carolina, Bradley, UMass, DePaul and St. John's. It's tough to figure out where he will land as he is in the middle of his season.
In a recent game against Mumford (Detroit) he had 20 points and 10 rebounds.
Cunningham is an undersized power forward with the right approach to the game. He has toughness, bounce and slashes his way to the basket. He is a player that you don't want to face in a game. You want him on your team because he is a true fighter who plays with urgency and makes winning plays.

The ESPN 100 recruit chose the Bruins over SMU, USC, Indiana, Louisville and Kentucky. The Bruins were seen as the favorite and it appeared to be only a matter of time before he chose to continue his career in Westwood, despite Larry Brown and SMU making a strong push.
Bolden is one of the better under-the-radar prospects in the country, but he was able to exhibit his talents in August at the adidas Nations event in California. The finesse 4-man is a willowy, skilled prospect with an intriguing skill set. He can face up his defender and either drain the 19-foot jump shot or display his underrated passing skills. He needs to get considerably stronger and much more assertive, especially in the paint, but his upside is quite impressive.
Steve Alford has a nice nucleus arriving in Westwood next season with the likes of ESPN 100 prospects Kevon Looney (Milwaukee/Hamilton) and Thomas Welsh (Los Angeles/Loyola), as well as skilled 5-man Gyorgy Goloman (Weston, Fla./The Sagemont School). Along with Bolden, this group will provide the Bruins with length, skill and savvy. If UCLA can somehow land a point guard, Alford will have all of his needs met for the 2014 class.
7'1" Jordan Vandenberg from NC State to the NBA next year? #AskCoachB @PaulBiancardi
— carter sadin (@CarterSadin) December 4, 2013
Jordan Vandenberg is playing as well as ever in his career as a fifth-year senior. His defense is helping NC State to a four game winning streak since he returned to the lineup from a high ankle sprain suffered five minutes into the first exhibition this year. He defends the rim and has helped the defensive rebounding category quite a bit as well, pulling down 6.5 rbg. Vandenberg is running the floor greater than ever before in transition with most of his scores coming from plays at the rim for dunks. He is averaging 8.8 points a game and shooting 70 percent from the floor because most of his baskets come from lob catches at the rim and tip-ins/put backs on missed shots. Occasionally he will make a back to the basket move and end up at the free throw line. Speaking of the free throw line, he is only converting at 50 percent.
He is intriguing because of his size (7-foot-1) but most of his game does not translate to the NBA level as an investment pick in the first round. But the NBA scouts are now attending his games to see if he is someone that they could possibly draft in the second round or invite into a camp as a free agent. If none of the above happens he will have a chance to go overseas and play professionally.
Roundtable: Best event of holiday season
The holiday season is a busy time for college basketball recruiters. About a month into the season, and only a couple of weeks removed from the early signing period, recruiting lists tend to be regenerated as coaches learn new things about their team and move on to new prospects.
Combine that with a variety of holiday events that feature several teams in a single location, coupled with a temporary pause in many college schedules for final exams, the next couple of weeks could very possibly be the busiest recruiting period of the high school season, and those tournaments continue past the holiday season.
With coaches out in full force, we asked our team at RecruitingNation what they were most looking forward to in the coming weeks:

Best player
Stanley Johnson (Santa Ana,Calif./Mater Dei)
2014, WF, 6-foot-6, 225 pounds
Status: Signed with Arizona
At this level, once Johnson makes up his mind what his intentions are at either end, he's nearly impossible to stop. He manhandles his defenders with strength, skill, and savvy. He has some similarities (strength/skill) to Shabazz Muhammad, but Johnson is much more fluid as a player.

7-foot junior has rare size and skill
I'll preface my own observations by noting that I'm a thorough believer in multiple evaluations. I've never believed you can truly have a grasp on a prospect until you've seen him multiple times in a variety of different settings, and so clearly I have a long way to go before having this guy pinpointed. Some things, however, were immediately clear.

@PaulBiancardi Syracuse PG Tyler Ennis should be mentioned as one of the Top Freshman this year. Do you agree? #AskCoachB
— Stephen Payette (@s_payette10) December 7, 2013
I agree, as I absolutely loved Tyler Ennis in the high school ranks. What I respected most about his game was the poise in which he played with and how he led.
As a freshman he is doing an outstanding job leading the Orange to a top-5 national ranking in an unassuming fashion. Over nine games he is playing 31 minutes per game, and he is making the most of those minutes.
He serves as Syracuse's primary ball-handler, making decisions and scoring when needed. His assist to turnover ratio is 5:1, which is tremendous . He is nailing the 3-point shot at a 42 percent clip, which is impressive since the college 3-point line is a foot further than then the high school line (20-foot-9 vs. 19-9).
It's obvious that Andrew Wiggins, Jabari Parker, Julius Randle, and Aaron Gordon are elite players and difference makers as freshmen, but Ennis is definitely in the conversation as a top-10 freshman.
Biancardi's Breakdown: Rashad Vaughn
Let's break down the game of one of the top shooting guards in the country:

#AskCoachB: Ranking the best frontcourts
@PaulBiancardi Love your work.. give me your top 4 front courts?? Player of the yr?
— frank (@Frank_UkCats) December 4, 2013
1. Kentucky
Dakari Johnson, Julius Randle, Willie Cauley-Stein and Alex Poythress make up the most powerful frontcourt in the game. They can score, block shots and rebound with anyone.
2. Arizona
Brandon Ashley, Kaleb Tarczewski, Aaron Gordon.
This threesome is strong, long and explosive, and they use those gifts on both ends of the floor.
3. Syracuse
C.J. Fair, Rakeem Christmas, DaJuan Coleman, Baye Keita.
This bunch has both length and girth while protecting the basket and finishing inside.
4. Florida
Patric Young, transfer Dorian Finney-Smith (Virginia Tech) and Will Yeguete.
If Freshman Chris Walker becomes eligible in December this group could do serious damage together. They are extremely productive and could be dominant on the inside if Walker is playing.
Player of the Year
Marcus Smart. Nothing seems to faze this All-American. When you easily could have walked away from the college game and you come back, that means you are extremely confident in your ability. He has put up terrific numbers across the board, dominated the action at times and makes his team win -- that's what a POY does.
Grading top mid-major recruiting classes
Annual powerhouses like Xavier, Memphis, Butler, Temple and several others have now been elevated to "high-major" conferences, leaving a void for other mid-major programs to establish their recruiting superiority at their own level.
So after grading the ACC, American, Big 12, Big East, Big Ten, Pac 12, and SEC last week, it's now time to examine the best of the rest. Grading mid-major classes can be subjective, meaning there's a little bit of a curve in order to account for the fact that recruiting at this level is tougher than ever before given the unprecedented number of competing programs who can now leverage their high-major conference affiliation.

DePauw drops 2-1 decision to Southwestern
November 2, 2003
The Tigers trailed 2-0 at the half, but battled back to within a goal in the final 12 minutes, but visiting Southwestern survived a late DePauw charge and gained a 2-1 Southern Collegiate Athletic Conference win. DePauw dropped to 10-6-1 overall and 4-4 in the SCAC, while Southwestern improved to 13-5 overall and 7-1 in the conference.
Kevin Donovan scored at 10:36 on an assist by Lauro Davalos and the Pirates made it 2-0 at 35:38 on a score by Pat Watkins and assisted again by Davalos.
Danny Antle put DePauw on the board at 78:17 on a rebound off of T.J. Powers' shot. The Tigers had several opportunities in the closing minutes, but Southwestern prevailed.
DePauw outshot the Pirates 19-10 and each team had four corners. Steven Harben recorded nine saves for Southwestern, while Wes Molyneux had three for DePauw.
The Tigers conclude the season on Saturday, November 8, when the host Rose-Hulman at 2 p.m.

By Jaclyn Shambaugh Staff writer
Kanesha Lankford couldn't take all the credit for her game-high 19 points in South View's 52-51 overtime win at E.E. Smith on Friday.
She had to pass some of the credit on to forward Chinyere Bell, just as Bell passed plenty of chances to Lankford on the court.
"Chinyere found me several times," Lankford said. "We've been playing together so long that she can find me almost anywhere on the floor. And I her."
Bell had seven of the team's 14 assists with several of them coming on key possession in the fourth quarter as the Tigers (17-4, 8-2 Mid-South) tried to gain ground against a relentless Smith squad.
Lankford scored eight points in the quarter, including a layup with five minutes left in regulation that gave the Tigers a 39-38 lead after trailing 38-33 at halftime.
Neither team could gain a significant edge, and regulation expired with the score tied at 45.
Tigers' guard Jasmine Brown scored the deciding point on the second of two free throws with 11.3 seconds left in the overtime period to give South View a 52-49 lead.
On the ensuing possession, the Bulls' Unique Porter, needing a 3-pointer to tie, could only get off a 2 to leave the Tigers with a 52-51 win.
With the win, South VIew remains tied in second place in the Mid-South 4-A Conference with Jack Britt behind undefeated Seventy-First.
The Bulls (7-11, 4-7) made a strong showing thoughout the game, out-rebounding the Tigers 37-27. Tyme Crumble led with 12 rebounds.
Smith outscored the Tigers 12-7 in the second quarter, taking advantage of some careless ball handling by South View.
The Tigers turned the ball over 18 times in the game.
"Some shots fell for us tonight, and on defense, we were in place," Bulls coach Dee Hardy said. "We're not a tall team, so we realized that unless we put our body on somebody, we might not get the rebounds. We've progressed with that. I don't know if South View was expecting us to do that or not."
