Fourth tractor-trailer jack-knifes todayBy Josh O'Gorman
Staff Writer | March 19,2013EAST WALLINGFORD - A fourth tractor trailer jack-knifed today, forcing travelers on Route 103 to take a detour, until recently when Route 103 reopened.
Rutland area roads are slick this afternoon, as they are around the state, with tractor-trailer crashes causing delays and road closures. Around 11 a.m., a jack-knifed truck blocked both lanes of travel on Route 9 just east of the State Police Barracks in Brattleboro.
At 1:47 p.m., a tractor trailer driven by Kevin Jones, 52, of Mesquite, Texas, crashed as he drove north on Interstate 91 in Springfield. Police said the truck was totaled and it continues to block one of the lanes of travel.
In Waterbury, a tractor-trailer crashed and blocked all northbound travel on Interstate 89 just south of Exit 10 in Waterbury.
Also reopened to traffic are I-89 and I-91.MORE IN This Just InBy Kathleen Phalen Tomaselli Full StoryBennington College and Middlebury College both top a list for most entrepreneurial colleges in... Full StoryWas the response to an alleged assault at College of St. Full Story

"We got a little over six inches of rain in two days at the treatment plant, so we had to let water out to keep it from running out elsewhere," he said. "The discharge was within our permit limits, but the EPD still classifies it as a spill since it hadn't been treated."
Dorman said he did not think the release would result in fines by the state, but the city is having to secure water samples for testing from the creek and will have to continue to do so for up to a year.
Dorman said the pond level was being lowered last week in anticipation of more heavy rain over the weekend and that he did not believe there would be a problem.
"We've taken this as a learning experience and will try to keep the level down when heavy rain is expected," he said.
Council members David Tufts and Benny Gray Jr. also suggested looking into having the pond dredged – something that hasn't been done in a number of years – to increase its capacity.

Big Win for Dye Tactical – Wolf & Mr. U at Wasaga Beach: Alien Aggression 3
Thursday, August 22nd, 2013
Riding to another Big Win in Wasaga
by Pete "Mr. U" Utschig
photos by Wasaga Beach Paintball
The Tactical Ironmen are 7-0 on the season. The only bad thing about being undefeated is that at each event the pressure keeps building, it easy to get to the top but staying there is the hard part, actually not that hard when your armed with a DAM.
This weekend I joined fellow Tactical Ironman and motivational phenom The Wolf. Our mission was to lead the Human Team "the blue squad " to victory over the Alien Invasion at Canada's premier scenario game held at Wasaga Beach Paintball. Close to 2,000 players showed up for the one day battle.
The Wolf and I had our hands full with the deck staked against us. The alien team was ready to rumble with the Canadian powerhouse team the Norther Gunman leading the charge. Wasaga Beach is a amazing event with the staff and refs doing a superb job keeping the fields pristine and the play fair.
Points were changing hands all day with the Aliens holding a lead most of the day, but we all know that the Ironmen are not going out like that. At one point early in the day I found myself in a very precarious situation, like I usually do. I had gotten way too far up the field leading a charge and was alone against about 70 angry Canadians. As my bunker was getting pounded about as hard as my heart was beating I heard a loud thump, guessing it was the first guy coming to bunker me I spun quick only to see another DYE Camo clad blue warrior joining me in my bunker. Not only was I surprised someone else had the balls to enter the battle with unthinkable odds but I was even more surprised to learn my teammate was only 12 years old. Together with our DAM firepower we started to destroy the enemy force.
This seemed to be the theme for the day, Thomas aka the Shadow followed me through every charge, crawl, and firefight. We gave it out and without a question we got it back too. When the smoke settled and the points were tallied the Ironmen and Humans reined supreme!
The Wasaga Beach crew did a amazing job as young and old stayed for the awards ceremonies. DYE graciously donated a ton of prizes, Wolf awarded the oldest combatant at 65 a brand new pair of i4s. But the real winner of the day was Thomas the Shadow who earned his Ironmen patch in front of the cheering crowd. The Shadow is now part of the Tactical Ironmen.
I wanted to thank everyone at Wasaga Beach paintball especially Christine and Larry for putting together a great event. I can't wait for next year!
Make sure you check out all the video footage from this amazing event. 7-0 and still undefeated I think the numbers speak for themselves if your not on the DYE Tactical side, you're probably on the losing side. World DAMination!

The North American sâuçá: Buffalo Chicken
Tingle your taste buds this week with our North American sâuçá: sweet and spicy Buffalo Chicken served on fresh flatbread or over savory saffron rice. Our inspiration comes from the Buffalo wing: an American sports bar classic since the 1960s. But where did these spicy little delicacies originate? The namesake for this saucy chicken snack comes from the city of Buffalo in Upstate New York where the Anchor Bar has been serving them up for nearly fifty years. A classic Buffalo sauce is made with a blend of cayenne pepper, butter, and vinegar. This hot, tangy, messy sauce is glazed over fried chicken wings and traditionally served with blue cheese dressing on the side.
Our Buffalo Chicken sâuçá reinvents this dish by taking the messy bones out of the picture and wrapping it in a neat, flatbread package. We smother our homemade Buffalo sauce over baked chicken thigh meat and top it with sweet, caramelized onions, and a healthy sprinkle of blue cheese crumbles to balance the heat. Just like America herself, this sâuçá is a veritable melting pot of flavors borrowing the cayenne pepper from Central America, some distinctly European blue cheese, and our signature Mediterranean-style flatbread.
Take a moment out of your day to treat your senses to this rich sâuçá: the smell of the sweet onions; the eyeful of tender chicken coated with colorful red, white, and blue toppings; the warmth of the soft flatbread in your hands. And finally, the heat of the hot sauce on your tongue followed by cool, soft bites of blue cheese. The combination of spicy, sweet, and savory is truly sublime; but don't take our word for it. Grab this North American sâuçá for lunch, and you'll return to the office full and happy without the tell-tale red-stained fingers synonymous with wing eaters. Well, maybe grabbing one napkin wouldn't hurt…

I was first introduced to SFZC through a summer workshop at Tassajara in 1991, and was lay ordained by Abiding Senior Dharma Teacher Linda Cutts in 2004. I have participated in six Green Gulch and one Tassajara practice periods, and have attended seven Intensive Practice Periods with Tenshin Reb Anderson. This training has opened my life to new ways of being on many levels and I would like to express my deep gratitude through my participation on the Board.
I have received extensive training and experience in hospice care and harp therapy. I have also received certifications in Integral Coaching by both New Ventures West and the Strozzi Institute. I recently retired from 30 years as a fee-only financial planner focusing on working with people to develop a peaceful, wise, and satisfying relationship with money. I live near San Luis Obispo, California, with my husband, Michael Moran, a psychotherapist and student of Tenshin Reb Anderson.

Core Curriculum
Academic Core of JBU's Liberal Arts and Sciences Education
The Core Curriculum
The notion of a Core Curriculum is rooted in a Christian understanding of humanity. As bearers of God's image, humans were created to be thinking, valuing, culture-forming beings. The traits that a Core Curriculum seeks to instill-a deeper understanding of creation and culture, a sharpened intellect, a broadened imagination-enhance our ability to glorify our Creator. In short, liberally-educated Christians are better prepared to be image-bearers of God and effective agents of God's Kingdom in today's world.
A Core Curriculum in the liberal arts and sciences, therefore, plays a central role in John Brown University. While not necessarily more important than other facets of the university (such as major and minor fields of study, chapel, co-curricular opportunities, and residence life), the Core Curriculum provides a common base of educational experience for all students and draws connections between the various fields of study that students will explore.
Goals of the John Brown University Core Curriculum
The Core Curriculum seeks to equip students to . . .
1. Apply biblical truth and a Christian worldview to all areas of study.
2. Appreciate the complexity and diversity of creation and culture.
3. Understand and apply multiple approaches to discovering truth.
4. Critically evaluate ideas and arguments.
5. Communicate effectively in speech and in writing.
6. Discern and appreciate beauty in the arts and sciences.
7. Draw connections between various subjects of study.
8. Become lifelong learners.
9. Develop a mature, discerning Christian faith.
10. Demonstrate Christian character in all areas of life.
11. Build and nurture healthy relationships.
12. Understand and practice emotional maturity.
13. Serve others.
14. Practice Christian stewardship of their bodies, time, and other resources.
15. Apply Christian ethics to society and the environment.
16. Participate through their vocation in God's creative and redemptive purposes in the world.
In order to accomplish these goals, the Core Curriculum seeks a middle ground between the extremes of a common core and a cafeteria system. Its basic philosophy is to provide all students with a common set of core classes during their early years, allow them to choose from a variety of courses within basic subject areas during their middle years, and culminate their college experience with a series of upper-level common courses, as shown below.

1Students who plan to spend a minimum of four weeks in a cross-cultural experience may take ICS 2991/93 Study Abroad Experience as an Independent Study course to fulfill their Global Studies requirement. The student must arrange to complete ICS 2991/93 before participating in the cross-cultural experience. Further information is available through the International Programs Office.

Global Studies Exemptions
International students are exempt from the Global Studies requirement. Students from the United States who have significant cross-cultural life experiences may qualify for Global Studies exemption. Students should consult the Global Studies Exemption form on the JBU web site to determine if they have sufficient cross-cultural experience to apply for exemption
Sequencing of Core Curriculum Courses
The Core Curriculum is designed to function as an interrelated whole. Thus the courses are sequenced, with some serving as prerequisites to others. Instructors in upper-level courses are able to assume a base of knowledge and understanding and use that as a foundation on which to build. In particular, the Gateway Seminar in Christian Scholarship introduces students to the Core Curriculum and establishes a Christian framework for education. The Capstone Seminar in Christian Life culminates the Core Curriculum experience and prepares students to be active participants in the Kingdom of God. Thus, the Capstone Seminar must be taken at John Brown University.
Core Curriculum Course Exemptions
Students in some degree programs that are subject to external accreditation requirements are granted exemptions to certain Core Curriculum courses. All such exemptions are listed in the catalog section pertaining to the particular degree program.
The Co-Curriculum
Complementary to and supportive of the Core Curriculum is the Co-Curriculum. The Core and Co-Curriculum have many of the same goals, some of which, especially those of the spiritual, social, and emotional dimensions, are more strongly addressed through the Co-Curriculum. Co-curricular components include Freshman Orientation, the Chapel program, student organizations (e.g., SGA, Cause Ministries, Residence Hall Associations, growth and support groups (Passion), lectureships and other special events, counseling, the Career Development Center, the Academic Assistance Program, forums, and other out-of-class programs presented by the faculty and staff, the Lyceum Artists Series, intramural sports, Residence Life programs, programming for married students, the Soderquist Center, the Center for Healthy Relationships, and the student leadership programs.
The Core Curriculum and Co-Curriculum are mutually reinforcing and interdependent.

Grand Valley Police Department
Severe Weather
Designated Safety Areas, All Campuses
(Click above to view local road conditions)
Severe weather safety at Grand Valley State University involves a variety of measures aimed at pre-planning. GVSU's plan focuses on early and quick warning to alert the faculty, staff, students, and visitors of our campuses. Residence Life, the Safety Office, and the Grand Valley State Police Department have all worked cooperatively so that when severe weather strikes, the University is prepared for safe, orderly sheltering. Posting of designated shelter locations, training programs for resident assistants and building contact persons, twice a year reminders, and the monthly testing of warning sirens have contributed to a high level of preparedness for our University.
Early Warning
Many offices on campus use the NOAA weather radio to provide immediate notification of storms in the vicinity. The weather radio instantly informs various departments of watches or warnings issued for the county. Police officers also maintain contact with both the County 911 system and the County Emergency Services Unit to provide up to the minute weather bulletins.
Tornado Notification
Tornado sirens will activate when a tornado warning has been issued, and in some cases when there are extreme straight line winds. If the siren is sounding, it should be your indication to seek shelter immediately. Each campus is within reach of tornado warning sirens. Their main function is to alert people outside. They may not be heard inside most buildings. The verbal notification of a Tornado Warnings is dependent on what campus you are on. Some campuses use intercoms in hallways and classrooms. Most others use a combination of University personnel making verbal notifications using both portable radio and phone contact.
University Operations
Classes are only interrupted for tornado warnings.
Thunderstorm Watch:
- University operations continue as normal
- You should monitor the weather
- Be prepared for changing conditions
Thunderstorm Warning:
- University operations continue as normal
- Call List is initiated by GVSU Police Department
- You should monitor the weather
- Be prepared for changing conditions
- Some outdoor athletic and intramural events will be cancelled
Tornado Watch:
- University operations continue as normal
- Call List is initiated by GVSU Police Department
- You should monitor the weather
- Be prepared for changing conditions
Tornado Warning:
- All University operations are suspended until the event has passed
- Call List is initiated by GVSU Police Department
- Sirens are activated
- You should seek shelter immediately
Your Responsibilities
During severe storms it is important for you to be aware of changing weather conditions so that you will know when severe weather may affect you. One of the easiest ways to do this is to listen to local radio stations that give periodic weather bulletins during severe weather. Any of the major television networks will also provide up-to-date coverage. The Internet contains numerous local weather sites.

will premiere on Thursday, April 7th at 9pm. The documentary will repeat that evening at 10pm, 12am and 1am.
DECEMBER 21, 2012…In case you haven't heard…that's the day 'life as we know it' is going to end.
It's no secret that many people are afraid of what might happen at the end date of the Mayan calendar. But what isn't known is how people are preparing for what they believe is the end of the world. 'Apocalypse 2012' follows the quirky and remarkable journey of fascinating people around the world who are discovering their own ways to protect themself from what they believe is coming on December 21, 2012. From building survival communities at the top of mountains to constructing underground condominiums in missile silos deep underground, people are getting ready. As a result, the business of Armageddon is flourishing. And according to psychologists, a surprising number of mainstream people are buying into it because it so forcefully underscores the turmoil of the times. As well as observing the characters who are laying the groundwork for that fateful day and those investing in it, the documentary also looks into the psychology behind the 2012 apocalyptic movement, examining where their beliefs come from and what people get out of it. Are their action based on fear alone? Or is there more to the end of the world hype?
Black Blade: Might be interesting although I think that CNBC will probably focus on the crazy cult stuff rather than the prepper/survivalist lifestyles. Still, you never know and there may be some good ideas or just some common sense. The show will be on CNBC tonight at 9PM Eastern Time.

We warlocks have been asking for green fire for years, giving mages a different fire color right now would create one massive shitstorm.
Aside from that, blue fire makes little sense for a mage.
We warlocks have been asking for green fire for years, giving mages a different fire color right now would create one massive shitstorm.
Aside from that, blue fire makes little sense for a mage.
Here we go, after warlocks got green fire now its time for every caster class to say: "I want (insert color here) fire!". I mean it made sense for locks to get green fire like felfire but mages? Cmon you've got frost...
Not necessarily blue, but yeah, our animations suck and are, as mentioned, totally outdated. Wish they made frostfire bolt same cast speed as fireball baseline. As it is, I personally cant afford to use a glyph slot for it in raids.
If Mages get a class quest I think IMO it should be different or give something different.

Right, as the world goes, is only in question between equals in power, while the strong do what they can and the weak suffer what they must.- Thucydides
There is a modern myth that people have always tended towards democracy, constitutions, electoral rights; but in truth, love of freedom has never been the predominant note of popular politics. At most times, popular demand has been for a strong government.- Eugen Weber
You guys have it wrong. As a Mage I control many different kinds of magic. My spells should reflect that, they should therefore appear like the rainbow generator from felwood: http://www.wowhead.com/item=65357/rainbow-generator
If blizzard can't be bothered to reflect this then they are clearly lazy designers. /end sarcasm
Warlocks got green fire because it made sense from a lore point of view. Can anyone link any cannon lore of mages throw blue fire? Additionally mages have frost (blue) and arcane (Purple/Blue) already. I think mages deserve some love and maybe an overhaul but this just sounds like people asking for something for the sake of it just because another class got it. If mages get something it should be done right and for the right reasons not petty jealousy.
I wish Mages got the class design attention that Warlocks do.
Neh, whats the point other than that it would look kinda cool..
Flame Orb and Rune of Power. I wish neither of you existed. Ever.

Genoa - Pescara
Genoa has the second best form of the teams in Serie B, while Pescara has the worst form. The hosts should win this match.
Genoa to win.
Juventus - Mantova
Juventus has the best form of the teams in the Serie B. Montova won their last meeting 1-0. Juve want revenge!
Juventus to win.
Rimini - Arezzo
Arezzo have shown pretty good form, and have won the last two previous meetings between these two. You could probably get pretty goods odds on a Arezzo win.
Arezzo to win.
Crotone - Frosinone
A match between two teams who are not in form. Their last meeting ended in a 1-1 draw and I believe this one could end in a goalless draw.
This match could end in a draw.
Arezzo have pretty playable odds.. They are at the bottom part of the league table. Is there any chance their form will change? OR is this going one way?
Really consider them a good bet for Saturday. Would be happy if you could provide more info on the match if you can! Thanks
I have at least put some money on Arezzo. I got over 5 in odds, so I believe it is a very good bet. You can risk little to win a 5 times your bet.
I will try to get some info for you on this match tomorrow.
Yes I put my money onm Arezzo.. Thanks a lot for your picks !! I hope you will continue posting some picks on other leagues as well after the Italian season ends.

My name is Karina I'm 31 and I live in the Dominican Republic. I'm a mother of two boys one 7 and the other 5. I had two normal pregnancies without any risk. On September of 2005 I decided I wanted another baby, so I started my search for baby #3. On my first pregnancy I had trouble conceiving and when I had one year looking my doctor put me on clomid, I got pregnant on the first month. My second baby came by with no need of treatment, I got pregnant on the fourth month. Baby number three was kind of like my first pregnancy, I started on september 2005 with regular periods (26-28 days), by May of 2007 I was desperate and my doctor put on clomid again, I got pregnant on the third month. On the 6th month my baby was diagnosed with malformation on the genitals, it was a baby boy. We had a lot of stress just thinking of what the baby could have.
On my 29th week I began swelling that began on monday january 7, 2007. By wednesday my swelling got better with bedrest, but on the afternoon I had a huge pain in my abdomen and I really had no clue to what it was, 15 minutes later I couldnt breath and I felt a burning sensation all over my body. the next thing I knew I was on my way to the hospital. When I got there I was diagnosed with HELLP syndrome. I had an emergency cesarean and my baby was born at 29 weeks. My baby only lived for two and a half days. As you can see we are devastated of what happened.
My physical recuperation was pretty good my bp got back to normal after a week and a half so I stopped taking medication for that, my liver and enzymes got back to normal three and a half weeks after my delivery.
My question to you is : Do you think that clomid had something to do with the HELLP syndrome? Do you think that after two normal deliveries and this third one with the HELLP syndrome I have a high chance of it happening again? If yes do you think it can be treatable?
Please let me know your answer because we really would like to have the chance of another baby.
Thank you very much,

Questions and answers
Why did you choose to attend Baldwin-Wallace?
When I first visited BW I just felt like it was where I was supposed to be and the more people I met the more sure I was. BW is full of students who are motivated and truly believe that their actions can make a difference. I wanted to be surrounded with students and professors who could be identified as world changers.
What is your favorite thing about BW?
People are always doing something to help someone else. Organizations hold bake sales or throw events with the admission price being canned goods. Volunteering goes hand in hand with fun with our service trips. I love that BW has a heart for others.
What has BW helped you learn about yourself?
In high school I felt like I was always the leader pulling other along and having to constantly remind others that what we were doing was worth while. BW has taught me that I don't always have to be the leader because motivation runs through veins.
What advice would you give to prospective students?
Find a school that not only helps you learn what you need to be successful, but a place full of people who encourage you to try the impossible and do more than you ever thought you were capable of.

The Blue Ridge Crossroads Economic Development Authority (BRCEDA) has requested a grant of $6 million to "competitively respond" to an active prospect that could bring 450 jobs and $100 million in private investment to the Wildwood Commerce Park.
The Megasite Grant proposal was made to the Virginia Tobacco Commission by BRCEDA in hopes of purchasing 106 acres and to extend natural gas for Wildwood Commerce Park. According to the project description listed on the Megasite Grant Proposal, the total project cost is $7,046,875 and includes a local match of $1,046,875. The project would allow BRCEDA, an economic development partnership between Carroll County, Grayson County and the City of Galax, to respond to an active prospect not listed by name with "stated job creation of 450 jobs and $100 million in private investment."
According to staff comments and recommendation listed with the Megasite Grant proposal, the Virginia Tobacco Commission's Megasite and Special projects programs have awarded $5.4 million to date for property acquisition, utilities and engineering of Wildwood Commerce Park, which is located adjacent to Interstate 77's Exit 19. A graded site acquired in 2011 is immediately adjacent to the graded pad and other acreage proposed for acquisition to serve the unnamed prospect, and would be combined into a single site to meet the prospect's needs for a 150-acre site, the Virginia Tobacco Commission recommendation states.
BRCEDA has signed an option for the graded property to be acquired for $5.75 million ($54,216 per acre). Funds are also requested for a portion of the $1.3 million cost to extend natural gas to the site, with Carroll County paying the majority of the cost, the recommendation notes.
"The proposed job creation (450 in phase I and a potential additional 150 jobs in a second phase that is not guaranteed at this time) clearly meets the definition of a mega-project, would involve revenue-sharing on a major private capital investment by the localities that are partners in BRCEDA (Carroll, Galax and Grayson) and would be a transformational project for the region," the recommendation states.
The proposal precedes the scheduled Fiscal Year 2013 Megasite funding cycle in which applications are due by October 31. Funding decisions will be made in January 2013, well after the business prospect's stated timeline for selecting a site by mid-October, the recommendation goes on to point out.
"In the event Wildwood is not selected the proposal can be withdrawn and replaced with a revised request in the scheduled Megasite program cycle," the recommendation concludes. "Staff recommends award of $6 million from the FY13 Megasite budget, contingent on this prospect committing to the Wildwood site."

LAS CRUCES, N.M. (Feb. 8) - The New Mexico State softball team split its two games on opening day of the 2013 season during the Hotel Encanto Invitational on Friday, Feb. 8. NM State fell to the Nebraska Huskers 5-1 in the first game of the season, but came back for a powerful 8-1 victory over the Illinois-Chicago Flames in the evening game at the NM State Softball Complex.
Game One
In the first game of the 2013 season, the Aggies allowed the Huskers to strike first with a bunt from the lead-off batter. Two hits in the middle of the lineup brought around the run for NU, giving the team the lead over the Aggies. A quick first inning put NM State back on the field where the team allowed just one hit.
Senior pitcher Alex Newman pitched her first strikeout of the year to open the second inning, but a homerun by the Huskers put them up two runs going into the bottom half of the inning. A hard-hit double by sophomore Staci Rodriguez but the Aggies in scoring position with senior Tehani Kaaihue at the plate. She got on base off a single to the short stop, but the Aggies were unable to work their way around the bags.
With one run from Nebraska in the top of the fourth, the Aggies answered back with a solo homerun from sophomore right-fielder Malena Padilla. Two quick outs closed the inning with the Aggies on the board, trailing 3-1.
Nebraska earned two more runs in the sixth inning, a solo homerun from Tatum Edwards to left center and an RBI double that scored the runner from third after she reached base on a double of her own. NM State was unable to make up the ground in their half of the inning, leaving the Huskers with the 5-1 win as the two teams went scoreless in the final inning.
"I thought Nebraska had one of the strongest team's I've seen from them in a while," head coach Kathy Rodolph said. "I knew that we had to get out here and play some tough competition early so we knew what we were working with. It gives us an idea of what we need to work on with this team."
Game Two
The Aggies made a promising lead early in the first inning as UIC pitched four straight walks to bring in the Aggies first two runs. As Rodriquez stepped to the plate for the first time in the game, she fired her first career grand slam and putting four more runs on the board and giving the Aggies a 6-0 lead in the first half inning. After freshman Tatum Reedy got on base by a walk, senior amber olive moved her along with a single to short. Sophomore Kelsie Dodd drove Reedy around for the seventh Aggie run in the inning with a single to right field.
NM State worked for three hits in the inning, but finished the day with a total of nine. Two of those came in the second inning when Rodriguez hit a single-run homer through the left side. Padilla came to the plate next for her second hit of the day, first of the game; a she got two bases off a shot to center field. The Aggies collected three more hits in the second inning before being retired off a fly ball to left field.
The Flames made its final attempt with a solo homerun in the top of the fourth as center fielder Melissa Preish drove one over the right field fence. The Aggies led off UIC, allowing just three hits on the game as Newman and sophomore Karysta Donisthorpe worked for four combined strikeouts in their five innings. It was freshman pitcher Makayla McAdams that closed out the night for NM State when she and the Aggie defense did not allow a single run in the last two innings.
"Every player got in the game today, and that was important for us," Rodolph said. "If we want to compete this season, we are going to have to use our pitching to our advantage. That is our strongest asset right now and that showed tonight in game two."
The Aggies continue to host the Hotel Encanto Invitational on Saturday, Feb. 9, as UIC and Nebraska open the say at 12:30 p.m., and the Aggies meet the Flames once more at 3 p.m.

Long Beach, Ca - Coaches always tell their reserve players "be ready to play at all times. You never know when your contribution will make a difference in key situations."
That proved to be a profound statement as reserve sophomore Tony Osunsanmi came off the bench and hit three critical free throws with less than 40 seconds to play to help the Cal State Northridge men's basketball team to a tough 82-78 victory over a determined Long Beach State team in a Big West game on Wednesday night at The Walter Pyramid.
Three Matador frontline players (Tremaine Townsend, Jayme Miller, Rob Haynes) had fouled out and Calvin Chitwood suffered a high ankle sprain with 13:33 left in the first half that allowed Osunsanmi to play in the final critical minutes when the 49ers were mounting a final rally.
Osunsanmi played four minutes and made the most of his heroic opportunity. Osunsanmi scored three points and added two rebounds to help lift the Matadors to their 18th victory in 24 games, but importantly secure first place in the conference for another night with a 10-2 mark.
"I appreciate the team's effort and heart, and how they kept fighting," said Matadors head coach Bobby Braswell. "In the end we made some key free throws. Tony (Osunsanmi) doesn't play a lot of minutes but he came in and made those three key free throws. He gets the game ball."
Chitwood will be examined on Thursday determine the extent of his right high ankle sprain, the same ankle he injured which forced him to miss two games earlier this year.
Long Beach State, 6-19 overall and 2-10 in the conference, led through most of the first half until 5:35 when the Matadors took the lead for good at 18-17 on a free throw by Miller.
The Matador extended their lead to eight points at halftime, 32-24.
The lead grew too as many as 15 points, 66-51, with 8:57 remaining in the game on a Jonathan Heard dunk. But the 49ers refused to quit, outscoring the Matadors, 19-6, to make it 72-70 with 2:47 remaining.
But the Matadors scored their final eight points on a layup by Heard, three free throws by Osunsanmi, and three more free throws by Josh Jenkins to insure the Matador win and a sweep of the season series against the defending Big West champion.
Townsend recorded his league leading eighth double-double of the season with 18 points and 14 rebounds. Miller scored 15 points (6-for-6 from the floor). Heard scored 13 points.
The Matadors hit .509 (28-for-55) from the floor.
Cal State Northridge now takes a break from league action to face Rider University (18-9) in a BracketBuster game on Saturday (2/23/08, 6:00 p.m.) on ESPNU.
"It's going to be a nationally-televised game, and it's good for our conference," said Braswell. "We're going to approach this game on Saturday as if we were playing someone in our conference."
Matador Minute ... With 13 points tonight at Long Beach State, senior all-conference candidate Jonathan Heard now has 1,299 career points to pass Jim Malkin (1,286 points, 1959-62) into fourth place all-time at Cal State Northridge ... Heard now has 74 career starts which ties him for ninth place with Joseph Frazier (2001-05).

I went to the park and a pillow fight broke out. I am sure you have heard far-fetched stories like that before -- but this one is true.
In between the Farmer's Market, frisbee throwers and bikini-clad sunbathers, about 50 men, women and children broke out into a pillow fight Saturday at Marion Square in downtown Charleston.

"I don't know what to say. It's nice that they came, that they graced us with their presence. But on the flip side, I think Dana White is going to grow his hair back when he sees them here. Jon Jones is the light heavyweight champion. Werdum is fighting Cain next for the heavyweight belt. Those are people under contract with UFC. Now they come over here as guests. Do your seminar, okay? Do the seminar and go. They came over, sat in the front row at the press conference. Took photos. All of that sends a bad message.
I would never do that, never. If I am under contract with another organization, whether it be UFC, PRIDE ... if I'm under contract -- and they all are -- under a multiple fight UFC contract, I would never do it. Do a seminar maybe, but I would never appear at a press conference, let alone stand in front of banners that have a logo of a different organization. We all took photos together. I'm the main event. Unbelievable. They basically came over to promote a totally new organization. Dana White is going to go mad, 100 percent, totally justifiable in my opinion.
I would go mad, too, I would fire them all. Of course, those are fighters who bring the UFC money, but they didn't think it through and it comes off unprofessional. I would never do that. Dana White's hair is going to grow back for sure when he sees this. Mildly put, I think Dana White is going to be pissed off!"

My partner and I are on the same Wi-Fi network.
I can see my partner's files if I go to Start > Network and double-click on her system name.
If she does the same to my system name (it appears in her Network folder), she gets "Windows cannot access \\PC-NAME
She's running Windows 7, I'm running Windows 8.
Any ideas?

...yeah right. I have been trying to tell myself that I am prepared this time and have everything in hand. In a certain way, I do, but I also still have those fears inside.
The wife had "the headache" last night - a blood pressure headache - at 15 weeks. When she said it last night, it was like the bottom dropped out of my heart.
But I think I did very well - we took her blood pressure and yes, it was a little high. She got some water on her own and I got her down and resting. I think a lot of it has to do with the fact that our 1 year old is not sleeping right now, but it was a little wake-up call for me.
So I got a little wake-up call and feel pretty good that I am not panicking and feel like I am ready to do this again. Just thought I would share that.

The Isthmus of Panama: Out of the Deep Earth
As dates in geologic history go, the formation of the slender land bridge that joins South America and North America is a red-letter one. More than once over the past 100 million years, the two great landmasses have been separated by deep ocean waters. The narrow section of Central America that now unites them–at its narrowest along the isthmus of Panama–changed not just the world map, but the circulation of oceans, the course of biologic evolution, and probably global climate. The tortured product of diverse forces, today's version of the isthmus was probably fashioned by volcanism and movements of tectonic plates somewhere between 15 million and 3 million years ago.
Geologists are investigating igneous rocks from the deep earth that helped build the land bridge that joins North and South America. The rocks are most visible along the windswept western coast of Panama. CLICK TO SEE A SLIDESHOW

Split open with a sledgehammer to show their features, the stones' chemistry will be later analyzed in the lab to establish the conditions under which they formed.
Some 15 million to 65 million years ago, the Galápagos plume was migrating westward into the Pacific, forming strings of volcanic islands and underwater volcanoes. At the same time, the Pacific tectonic plate above it was moving back eastward. As the plate moved, it carried remnants of the plume-derived volcanoes back to Central America. Here, the Pacific plate was slowly colliding with a separate plate moving in from what is now the Caribbean. As the opposing plates met, sections of them got scrunched upward, and a second land bridge started taking shape. Some plume-derived islands and seamounts riding on the Pacific plate got plastered onto the developing landmass, like cherries on a cupcake. It is the now-crumbling remains of these traveling volcanic mountains that make up many of the peninsula's hills and sea cliffs. The plume continues to erupt under the distant Galápagos islands (part of Ecuador, not Panama). Its exact shape and the dynamics of the current eruptions are still the subject of some mystery.
After a rainstorm, Gazel and Class examine rocks exposed in a forest stream.
Visible rocks are actually the exception in this area, covered by humid pastures and forests, and thick red soils that draw farmers. At the end of this dirt track lay yet another creek bed to be sampled.
The isthmus united continents, but it divided oceans. Once the Atlantic and Pacific were separated, marine creatures such as mollusks on the shallow, warm Caribbean side took very different evolutionary paths from those on the colder, deeper Pacific side. The circulation of ocean water itself was completely changed, too; before the division, water flowed east to west, from Atlantic to Pacific, but the flow was now blocked. This created a permanent giant detour in the Atlantic–the Gulf Stream–which now pushes warm waters up from the tropics to the edge of the arctic. The transport of that warmth now gives northern Europe its habitably warm climate. And because warmth increases evaporation, it has also probably increased northerly precipitation in the form of snow. At various times in earth's orbital cycle, this has built up into glaciers, pushing the northern hemisphere into the series of great ice ages it has seen in the last several million years. On the Pacific side, weather patterns changed too, with deep waters along the western coasts of both continents continually welling up, and the domination of the cyclic El Niño pattern, in which the eastern ocean surface alternately warms and cools. El Niño now directly or indirectly drives rainfall, and thus agriculture, on scales of decades across much of Asia, and both Americas.
The Panama Canal, opened in 1914, now artificially bisects the isthmus. Its excavations were a boon for earlier geologists, but the scientific frontier seems to have moved on.
