Sunny Sweeney, Brennen Leigh Share Political 'But You Like Country Music'
Sunny Sweeney has teamed up with Brennen Leigh for a timely new duet, "But You Like Country Music."
"But You Like Country Music" is sung from the point of view of a Democrat and a Republican who are neighbors and can't seem to agree on anything ... except for their love of country music. The song pokes fun at both liberals and conservatives using the stereotypes that each political party loves to throw at each other -- the former are tree-huggers and hippies, the latter are fans of Fox News and guns -- but points out that music can unite both sides of aisle.
"I was gonna keep my distance because we are so different / 'Til one day I heard you cranking up 'the Hag,'" Sweeney and Leigh sing in the chorus. "You like country music, do ya? / What if I do, what's it to ya? / Well, if you like country music, then I guess you're not so bad."
They're not bartering world peace, but Sweeney and Leigh's lighthearted lyrics will make listeners laugh no matter their political leanings. The funny, twangy song ends with Leigh asking Sweeney who she'll be voting for, with Sweeney responding, "Merle Haggard ... I thought that's what we decided on?" (Now there's a vote we can get behind!)
"But You Like Country Music" is available for download on iTunes.

A particular proverb has been rattling around in my brain for some time. It's one of those bits of wisdom that has a way of sinking down and taking hold in my heart.
"Do not withhold good from those to whom it is due, when it is in your power to act," (Proverbs 3:27).
Nineteen words. Twitter-worthy at fewer than 140 characters. Limitless in application. Truly, I don't believe I could ever exhaust the application of this short snippet. Here's how this verse has been provoking me lately.
1. I have the power to do good.
I have almost unlimited potential to do good. The problem for me is when I begin to substitute "heroic" for "good." I don't have many opportunities to help elderly ladies across the street, pull children out of burning buildings, build hospitals, or make grand public gestures. But, I can remember to ask my friend how his grandmother's health is. I can take the time to get to know the people around me and take a genuine interest in them. I can lend my help to carry furniture for my new neighbor. I can give a generous tip, open my house to guests, or buy a sandwich for someone who is hungry.
2. The good I might do is due to more people than I might initially imagine.
The homeless woman who sits outside of Starbucks every day. The coworker who treats me with less respect than I believe I deserve. The neighbor kid who is spreading dandelion seeds in my back yard. The single mom who is serving me at the restaurant. My boss. My family. Who deserves respect? I can tell you that there are many more who do deserve respect than there are who do not. I go wrong every time I glibly assume someone isn't worthy of my respect. And, I miss opportunities to bless and encourage them.
3. Sometimes it isn't in my power to act; but most of the time it is.
I easily become overwhelmed in the fact of others hardships. I routinely think, "What could I possibly do to help? Their needs are so much greater than I have the capacity to impact." When I look around and see problems, there's something very important I'm not seeing: people. I might not be able to reverse a social injustice, but I can be kind to a woman who is oppressed. I might not be able to reverse someone's financial slide, but I can buy him lunch. I simply can't continue to write off opportunities to do good for people because problems are too daunting.
As uncomfortable as it might be, I hope God continues to rattle my cage with this verse. I've passed up so many opportunities in my lifetime. I don't want to let them continue to slip by without giving them a second thought.
What about you?
Do you recognize that you have the power to do good? How broad—or narrow—is your perception of whom you might impact? And, have you failed to realize when it is in your power to act?
May all of us realize that we have the power to do good!

Last year's American Priority Conference was, according to attendees, a bit of a joke. According to a Politico reporter who went to the inaugural event, the conference — pitched as some sort of yearly gathering for people who love Donald Trump and "American nationalism" — played to a lot of empty seats. Those who did attend wound up getting to see former Trump White House Communications Director Anthony Scaramucci state that the people behind the QAnon conspiracy theory had been "right about so many things."
Well, like many things in Trump's orbit, the American Priority Conference has returned despite the fact that seemingly few people wanted it in the first place. But although last year's event occurred in Washington, D.C., this year's conference is set to take place at Trump National Doral Miami, a place for people who enjoy spending thousands of dollars for cool-ranch-flavored food. According to scores of recent news articles, business has plummeted at the golf resort since Trump took office — it is perhaps not a coincidence that one of the speakers lined up for the conference happens to be Donald Trump Jr., who is allegedly one of the folks running the Trump Organization.
To make something of an understatement, the event will be really, really weird. The conference schedule includes many of Trump World's general hangers-on and bit players: the extremely jacked Judicial Watch guy Tom Fitton, Turning Point USA founder Charlie Kirk, Project Veritas head honcho and repeated lawsuit defendant James O'Keefe, et al. But the event lineup also includes people who hold, or once held, a certain amount of power, including former Press Secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders and current Florida Congressman Matt Gaetz.
The event's agenda is, likewise, bizarre. Today's sessions seem like fairly normal political conference fare (there's a lesson on digital fundraising, for example), but the speeches set for Friday and Saturday include "Tyranny 2.0: How Google Influences Elections," "Memetics," "CO2: The Myth in Global Warming," "How the Left Has Poisoned Our Schools," and "The Left's LGBT Manipulation."

Frankly, though, the only thing that truly matters here is that, around 8 each night, the lizard people and hobgoblins attending this thing will apparently dance to some strange and absolutely mismatched nonsense. Tonight, Goonies actor Robert Davi will sing Frank Sinatra. Tomorrow night will bring something called the "AMPFest After Dark Carnival" (a cursed phrase if we ever read one), during which the semi-infamous pro-Trump EDM duo Milk N Cooks will apparently play sick tunes such as this one:

Globe welcomes new team member
We're pleased to introduce you to the newest member of the Globe team, Joe Hall.
Joe joined us at the beginning of October as a Graduate Planning Consultant, having completed a Masters Degree in Urban Planning at Sheffield Hallam University.
After spells of work experience with us while studying for a first degree in Geography, when Joe approached us to say that the experience had led him to pursue a career as a chartered planner, it was an easy decision to welcome him to the office as a full time member of staff as we continue in our objectives to grow the business while supporting and developing new, young, and local professionals in our field.
Joe will be working alongside the senior team developing experience of a wide range of planning projects, and having previously drawn on his data and research skills to work with the team in making economic development arguments to support planning applications and funding bids, Joe hopes to develop a specialism in the economic aspects of planning.

Bay Area local favorite alternative folk group Rin Tin Tiger is back at it with a new album recorded in our fair city's own Tiny Telephone studios. We picked up an advance copy of Toxic Pocketbook courtesy of band member Sean Sullivan a few weeks ago and we gotta say, we're impressed.
Sean told us via email that they used no drum or vocal editing and went completely back to basics to put the thing together, and it shows in the music. Genuine, unadulterated folk alternative. It's the kind of album you might get a craving for at the end of your night when only that one song will really hit the spot. You're yearning for the comfort of a a contagious harmonica riff or the calming sound of familiar lyrics; enter Rin Tin Tiger's "Pretty Looks." Aah, that's better. If you listen to it once and it's not stuck in your head for at least the next 48 hours then you didn't listen to it right. The harmonies echo acts like the Head and the Heart's and their instrumentals (read: harmonica) earn comparisons to folk superheroes like M. Ward and Mason Jennings.
You can catch the band celebrating the release of their newest record at Great American Music Hall on July 26th with another Bay Area local act, the Tumbleweed Wanderers, and Ghost and the City.

Ten Reasons

Dick Polman, 1/4/2016 [
Bill Clinton's Sexual History? Really? Again?
By Dick Polman
Donald Trump is out of his mind (nothing new there) if he really thinks that he can taint Hillary Clinton by recycling her husband's infidelities. How can he, or any other Republican, hope to gain traction in 2016 with a tactic that backfired so abysmally in the last century?
Trump says that Bill has "a penchant for sexism," that, in Bill's career, there was "certainly a lot of abuse of women." The thrice-married mogul isn't the first Republican candidate to party like it's 1999 - Rand Paul, nearly two years ago, resurrected the Lewinsky scandal when he said, "We shouldn't want to associate with people who would take advantage of a young girl in his office" - but as political ammo goes, it's a major misfire.
I'm not minimizing Bill's trysts with the intern. His recklessness was a gift to his enemies, as I explicitly wrote on the morning after his impeachment. But most Americans rightfully drew a distinction between Bill's private behavior and his performance as president - and they rebuked the Republicans harshly for their idiotic overreach. In the '98 midterm elections, as the House impeachment effort neared its climax, Republicans lost seats in both chambers, and impeachment overlord Newt Gingrich (who at the time was engaged in his own extramarital trysting) was compelled to quit his speakership.
By the time the conservative crusade crashed and burned, Bill Clinton's poll ratings were higher than ever. And when he left office in January '01, 66 percent of Americans gave him a thumbs-up for his job performance; only 29 percent signaled thumbs-down. In the history of polling, no other president has finished his second term with better numbers. And today, 15 years after he left office, he's polling at 60 percent positive.
It's fair game to dredge up Bill's past behavior, and if local Republican lawmakers want to heckle Hillary about Bill, that's fine too. Hillary frequently touts her husband's tenure as a '90s golden age, so we have to expect some conservative pushback. Which is why we're hearing about Paula Jones and Juanita Broaddrick all over again, especially on conservative talk radio. The guilt-by-association goal is to paint Hillary as an enabler of abuse - and pull some female voters into the Republican camp.
It's amusing so many conservatives view Broaddrick's rape claims as automatically credible, considering both the FBI and Lewinsky prober Kenneth Starr said her claim was inconclusive. These are the same conservatives who typically insist that women alleging sexual assault are PC whiners.
Anyway, the biggest problem with resurrecting Bill's history is that most Americans made peace with it long ago. The only people who'd be dissuaded to vote for Hillary because of her husband's alleged behavior are people who probably wouldn't vote for her in the first place. Even Brent Bozell, the veteran Clinton-hater who helms the conservative Media Research Center, says the tactic is a waste of time. In his words, the recycled scandal-mongers "aren't really going to have an impact. They're barking at the moon."
Best of all, we got this succinct assessment of the original Republican scandal-mongers, back in January 2000: "I got a chuckle out of all the moralists in Congress....If the Clinton affair proves anything, it is that the American people don't care about the private lives and personal of our political leaders so long as they are doing the job."
So wrote Donald Trump.

Have you ever had one of those runs where it doesn't seem like anything is really going right? Well that was today's run. I was set to do my last long run before my next marathon in October and I was planning a 22 miler. Well you know when I start talking in past tense that it did not go well.
Our morning was thrown off a little when a meeting that was supposed to happen got canceled so instead of going right out and going for a run, I laid around for over an hour. That was probably mistake number one. Then once I did get started I tried a new training plan. It's called a 5-4-3-2-1 run where you run easy for 1-2 miles at the beginning and then 5 miles at race pace, then 1 mile easy and so on and so on until you finish with a 1 mile easy run. I thought it would be good especially since it was cool outside. You know, try something new. 5.5 miles in, my stomach said "hey, you need to make a stop". So off into the woods I went. This has never happened to me during a training run. But on I pushed (after the pit stop), I was determined to make today's run good.
As I got done with mile 9, I was thinking let's turn this run into a 20 miler. My body screamed "Yippee, that means we get to turn around soon". I made it to mile 10 and that is when my whole self said "this sucks! I hear it is better to undertrain than overtrain." I plodded along and talked to my other half who was biking next to me and made arrangements for him to go on ahead and bring the car a little closer than the 10 miles it was away.
Off he went to get the car and left me trudging along, now uphill, to our meeting point. That is when my brain went into overdrive:
Why are you doing this?
You are never going to qualify for Boston!
Maybe you should just stick with 10K's, you did great last weekend.
Time to walk
Burr, I'm cold
Can't wait to get to that towel at the car so I can warm up
Maybe I should do more crunches.
Crunches really, you think that would help what is going on right now?
What is going on right now?
I think I see the car
Yippee we get to stop moving!
(There was lots more negative thoughts but don't want to overwhelm you with how bad my thoughts were today! What can I say, sometimes I am my own worst therapist.)
Now hours after making it home, a long shower, and refueling with dinner and an extra thick chocolate frappe, I continue to beat myself up about what went wrong. Really I have no idea. I just felt gross and Dave keeps telling me to chalk it up to a bad day because we all know that those happen. So I'm working on that. And I do remain hopeful that it was just one run and I can get out there tomorrow and complete the last few miles of the run and still have a weekend full of miles. So right now that is the plan, at least 3.25 miles tomorrow to finish my 20 mile run and if it feels good maybe an extra 2 to get the 22 miles done!
Here's to changing thoughts and to quit beating myself up!
Ever have a bad run? What did you do to move on?

Perceived Deservingness and the Toleration of Human Rights Violations: The Problem and a Possible Solution
Drolet, Caroline
MetadataShow full item record
Despite general endorsement of universal human rights, people continue to tolerate specific human rights violations. I conducted a two-part study to investigate this issue. For Part I, I examined whether people tolerated torture (a human rights violation) based on the morality and deservingness of the target. Participants tolerated torture more when the target had committed a highly morally reprehensible transgression. This effect was mediated by the target's perceived deservingness for harsh treatment, and held over and above participants' abstract support for the right to humane treatment. For Part II, hypocrisy induction was used in an attempt to reduce participants' toleration of the torture. Participants were assigned to either the hypocrisy induction or control condition. Unexpectedly, participants who tolerated the torture more in Part I reduced their toleration the most in the control condition, possibly because of consistency and floor effects. Limitations and implications of the findings are discussed.

A photograph of a man holding a Confederate flag outside the Phi Kappa Theta fraternity at the University of Missouri poses a threat, according to a university chancellor.
ΦΚΘ (@PhiKaps_Mizzou) | University of Missouri pic.twitter.com/PiDkn9nf2N
— Frat Scenery (@FratScenery) July 13, 2015
"Especially considering recent events in South Carolina concerning the Confederate flag, this photo may be considered offensive and possibly even threatening to some of our community members," said Chancellor R. Bowen Loftin in a statement. "MU officials do not condone any activities that could threaten the safety of our community."
The photo was tweeted on Sunday by Frat Scenery, a Twitter account that posts photos of universities around the country.
According to the Maneater the photo was taken around the time of a September 8, 2012 football game between the University of Georgia and the University of Missouri.
"Three of the five men in the photo are wearing Bulldogs apparel and a University of Georgia flag flies alongside the Confederate Navy Jack," writes Quinn Malloy for the university publication.
Loftin did not specify how the flag might pose a threat.
As noted by Infowars.com people who own and display Confederate flags on their own property have been threatened.
On Monday an incident occurred in Moseley, Virginia while a family expressed their First Amendment right by waving the flag in their own driveway next to a busy highway. A man driving an SUV pulled into the driveway, took out his gun, chambered a round, pointed it at the family and started yelling.
The frenzy surrounding the Confederate flag increased after the South Carolina House gave legislative approval to remove the historic flag last week following the shooting in Charleston.
The NAACP has demanded the depiction of Confederate generals be removed from Stone Mountain in Georgia and has also called for Alabama to remove the symbol from uniforms and vehicles used by State Troopers.
Last month Amazon.com staff told customers the company was ordered by the federal government not to sell items featuring the Confederate flag.
Walmart, eBay, Sears and other retailers have announced they will no longer sell Confederate flag merchandise.

Notes[edit | edit source]
- He is aggressive towards the nearby Jade Brotherhood, and if he is allowed to patrol as close as possible to them they can be pulled together. If 2 or 3 of the Jade mobs are pulled, they will overpower him and his Guards and allow you to get the cap (even with a running build!). However, you forfeit your chance of getting his unique drop.
- He shares a surname with the Dredge boss Wagg Spiritspeak.

Posted by Alexander Rogers in Insurance | Comments Off on Riverside County CA Homeowner's Insurance
Riverside County CA Homeowner's Insurance
Standard homeowner's insurance in San Jacinto CA does not cover damages and injuries related to earthquakes. By state law, an insurance agency must offer you earthquake insurance for an additional cost. A standard homeowner's insurance policy covers the house's exterior, detached property (e.g. garages or sheds), personal property inside the home, medical costs to other injured parties, liability, and the loss of your home. If you're interested in getting a quote on homeowner's insurance in San Jacinto CA you'll want to contact Speedway Insurance Services Inc.
Speedway Insurance Services specializes in value and customer service. The agency strives to find you the most comprehensive coverage you need at the best economical price. When you take out a policy with Speedway, the agency gives you more than one option. As one of the agencies in the San Jacinto CA area that processes the most policies and has one of the largest customer bases, the agency can offer lower prices than the competition. The insurance industry considers Speedway Insurance Services a third-party broker. This means that the agency re-sells homeowner's insurance policies from direct carriers, such as AllState and State Farm.
Based on your needs, Speedway Insurance matches you with the best homeowner's insurance policy available. Your coverage needs will depend on the value of your personal property, the value of your home and its location. Your preference for out-of-pocket expenses will also have an effect on your premium costs. The higher you're able to raise your deductible, the lower your monthly premium will be. If your home is located in an area prone to safety issues or natural disasters, your premium costs will be higher.
Before you obtain quotes for your homeowner's insurance, you'll want to have a general idea of the value of your personal belongings. This includes everything you keep in your home, such as furniture, jewelry, computers, and other electronic equipment. While an insurance agent can help you determine an approximate value, you will ultimately be responsible for determining this number. If you feel you need additional coverage for your personal items, you will be able to purchase additional coverage beyond your standard policy limits.

The UN Security Council Counter-Terrorism Committee invited United Nations University to brief its members on 13 December 2018 in relation to a hearing on the Madrid Guiding Principles at UN Headquarters.
It was based on a research project entitled The Limits of Punishment: Transitional Justice and Violent Extremism led by Cale Salih. The project was led by the United Nations University Centre for Policy Research in partnership with the Institute for Integrated Transitions. It was supported by the UK Department for International Development. The findings were published in May 2018, and presented at events held at Whitehall in London and at the Brookings Institution in Washington, DC. In December 2018, members of the research team held roundtable meetings with Iraqi policy-makers to promote uptake of the findings.
The Madrid Guiding Principles, as well as UN Security Council Resolutions, call on states to pursue a range of goals with respect to individuals associated with terrorist groups, including prosecution and criminalization, as well as rehabilitation and reintegration.
Three key findings from The Limits of Punishment research project offer insights to inform the Madrid Principles.

I just so happened to be making my daily trip up 146 from the Mass Pike after work today when I could see the smoke and flashing lights coming from the long vacant Washburn & Moen factory cum proposed Blackstone Valley Visiter Center.
With a twinge of guilt that I haven't posted anything Worcestercentric in quite a while and the fact that the blog has lay dormant for a month lead me to sing the car around and cruise out to Milbury and back before parking at the newish footbridge to survey the scene.
On a day that gothamist gets bought out for $5 to $6 million it is the least I can do!

End the FUD: Decision-Making Obstacles in This Election Cycle
Uncertainty blocks the brain from thinking. While talking with a client recently, he acknowledged that he'd been in a bit of a "mind funk" for a while. There was good reason: uncertainty due to lengthy delays of a key decision from someone outside of his company. And it's a reminder for direct marketers that uncertainty feels more prevalent in this fear-based election year than usual, and it is sure to block the brain from thinking and acting.
When presented with fear, uncertainty, or doubt (FUD), all logical thinking can shut down. "Mind funk" — or whatever you want to call it — sets in, and instead of moving forward, you shut down. And so do your prospects and customers. Consider how FUD can overtake emotions:
- Fear frightens and paralyzes.
- Uncertainly grips and people ruminate over and over.
- Doubt shakes confidence and buying decisions aren't made.
It's human to fall into the FUD trap because this is how our brains are wired. And quite frankly, this nasty and negative election cycle is likely to exacerbate FUD even more, risking a decline in response rates this year.
At any point when approaching your prospective customers, whether you've sent them a postcard, letter, catalog or email, you can't know a person's state of mind when they receive it. But you can know the persona of the individual, and that alone enables you to consider a person's core emotional values, and how you can clear away their FUD.
When you stimulate emotion, especially if you can imagine the FUD a person is dealing with at the moment, you get undivided attention. The brain shuts off thinking and is fixated on the problem. Your marketing opportunity?
- First, when you have identified one's fears, uncertainty and doubt, promise a solution.
- Second, redirect thinking by calming the mind with your solution. This dissipates FUD, and decision-making has a chance of returning.
At the rate fear, uncertainty and doubt is being stirred up by this election, another opportunity is to use the news as part of your message. Marketing guru and author David Meerman Scott wrote a book on seizing the news to help advance your marketing message, called NewsJacking. Using news makes you more topical, and these days, you'll probably hit many emotional core values to help you break through and release decision-making.

It's titled "When You Need More Customers, This Is What You Do." Or get all the details in my new book, "Crack the Customer Mind Code" available at the DirectMarketingIQ bookstore.

Wednesday Lunch Hour - Studying Teenagers' Political Thinking: What We're Learning from a Design-Based Intervention Study
Wednesday, April 3, 2019
Noon - 12:50 pm
Genrich-Rusling Room, LeChase 215
Increasingly, scholarship in cultural cognition and motivated reasoning suggests that people develop, act upon, and defend political positions via ethical and cultural commitments that serve to validate or invalidate different viewpoints and possibilities in front of them. What happens when young people are pressed to consider how these commitments and other "political shortcuts" play into the ways they engage with others in political discourse and activity? In this presentation, we will discuss how using discourse tasks to elicit high school students' political thinking and collaborating with teachers to design and enact a unit of study around open-mindedness in politics is helping us address this question.
Presented by Kevin Meuwissen, Associate Professor in Teaching & Curriculum; Mike McCarthy, a doctoral student in Teaching & Curriculum; and Becca Rosen, a doctoral student in Teaching & Curriculum.
A light lunch will be served. Food will be available at 11:45 am. The program will begin promptly at noon.
No need to RSVP. For any accommodation needs please contact Mary Judge at (585) 275-2454 or email at firstname.lastname@example.com.

Ideal vs. Reality
I am a mother of three and the owner of a physical therapy practice focused on women from pregnancy through to their return to fitness. With my first daughter, I was sick from 5 to 15 weeks while working full time as a PT, my husband was deployed, and I was throwing up constantly. Working out was so far from my mind. I wanted to be the fit and healthy mom who can handle it all and look adorable in pregnancy workout clothes. But sometimes reality just ain't that pretty. So if you are like how I was, I want to give you some tips on what you can be doing to help prepare your body for birth if exercise just isn't happening.
3 Practical Tips To Start Today
Really, breathing? Yes, really. I will admit that early in my career as a physical therapist I thought focusing on breathing was a waste of time and blew it off as not important. After over ten years of experience and retraining breathing with women I am a true believer in breath work.
The way you breathe influences the pressure placed on your abdominal muscles and pelvic floor EVERY TIME you take a breath. Many of the conditions causing pain for my patients can be directly attributed to the inability to handle the pressure created by the way they are breathing. This also influences how much stress hormone, cortisol, is floating around your body.
Cortisol is your body's built-in alarm system and can contribute to anxiety, depression, headaches, problems with digestion, trouble sleeping, and weight gain.
Does this sound like a list of the many things women struggle with, especially after having a baby, that can all be tied back to how they breath? That's why we place such importance on this with the women we work with at our practice.
Using Your Arms Now
In a few short months, you will birth a rapidly growing infant that you will carry, feed, diaper, place in a carseat, take for walks, and love on. Most newborns are 6-10 pounds and quickly get heavier and heavier. Are your arms and neck ready for that? How much do you use your upper body right now?
Many new moms I speak to complain of neck and shoulder pain that they attribute to feeding or nursing positioning. What I most often discover is that women are all of a sudden using their upper body more frequently with sustained holding and carrying. Their neck and shoulders simply are just not prepared for it. Start using your arms more now in preparation. Here are some examples. Place the cup or pan you use most often on the highest shelf of the kitchen so that you are reaching and holding above your head many times per day. Carry your groceries in one bag at a time to increase carrying time. If you are at the park with other children use some of the playground equipment to hang on, or do inclined push ups on the slide while your kids are playing. Get creative and have fun with it!
Walking is the first exercise I have every one of my patients start if exercise seems impossible or overwhelming. If you are currently someone who does not walk for exercise, start with 10-15 minutes at a comfortable pace. You should be able to talk without difficulty during this walk to gauge that you are not walking too intensely. If you are someone who does walk for exercise already, I recommend adding intensity by adding inclines or declines.

MILWAUKEE (AP) -Nobody got a bigger boost than Ohio State when mighty Kansas tumbled and the Midwest Regional suddenly went up for grabs.
No way, then, that Evan Turner was going to have another bad game.
Turner shook off one of the worst shooting nights of his career by coming within an assist and a rebound of his third triple-double of the season, lifting Ohio State to a 75-66 victory over sloppy Georgia Tech on Sunday in the second round of the NCAA tournament. Turner, a leading candidate to add national player of the year to his Big Ten honors, finished with a game-high 24 points.
"The better he plays," Ohio State coach Thad Matta said, "the better we play."
The deeper into the tournament the Buckeyes (29-7) play, too.
With No. 1 Kansas, No. 3 Georgetown and No. 4 Maryland all eliminated, Ohio State has its best chance of returning to the Final Four since Greg Oden and Mike Conley Jr. took the Buckeyes there in 2007. Ohio State faces sixth-seeded Tennessee on Friday night in St. Louis in a Midwest Regional semifinal.
"It's good to get a win out of the way," Turner said. "Now you just have to focus on the next one. You can't really spend time celebrating."
Jon Diebler added 20 points and David Lighty had 18 for the Buckeyes.
ACC Freshman of the Year Derrick Favors, who played just 5 minutes in the first half after picking up two quick fouls, keyed an 11-0 run that cut Ohio State's lead to 65-61 with 1:47 to play. Turner made two free throws, Lighty converted both of his after an intentional foul and the Yellow Jackets (23-13) never threatened again.
Beating the Buckeyes might have been a tall order anyway, but Georgia Tech (23-13) had no chance with Gani Lawal and Favors, their two leading scorers and rebounders, in foul trouble for much of the game. Favors, who finished with 10 points and four rebounds, fouled out in the last minute. Lawal, who had three fouls before halftime, had 11 points.
"It was really tough," Lawal said. "Took us out of our rhythm."
Turnovers didn't help, either. The Yellow Jackets had 21 miscues, eight more than they had in Friday night's victory over Oklahoma State.
The Buckeyes weren't exactly careful with the ball, either. They had 18, nine from Turner.
"We were sloppy with it," Matta said. "For Evan, with the nine, as long as he gets me 24 (points), nine (assists) and nine (rebounds), I'll live with it. … When the time was needed, he delivered for us."
UC Santa Barbara bumped and hounded Turner into nine points on just 2-of-13 shooting Friday night, and the Yellow Jackets didn't give him much more breathing room. Two Yellow Jackets were glued to Turner every time he brought the ball up the court, with top defender Iman Shumpert – Turner's backcourtmate in junior high – all over him.
But there's a reason Turner is up for player of the year.
When the Yellow Jackets eased up on their suffocating press to start the second half, Turner and the Buckeyes simply took it to the Yellow Jackets. With Turner feeding them the ball, Lighty and Jon Diebler lit it up from outside and William Buford and Dallas Lauderdale pounded the ball inside.
As for Turner, well, he just hit from wherever he wanted.
A 3-pointer by Lighty sparked a 14-2 run that gave the Buckeyes a 46-32 lead with 12:47 left. A layup by Favors got the Yellow Jackets within 52-43 with 9:15 to play, but Buford followed his own shot and tapped home the rebound, and the Buckeyes were off and running again.
"I was just trying to take what the defense gave me," Turner said. "I was trying to go at the right time and definitely just try to try my best to make plays and get everybody involved and definitely concentrate a little bit more on finishing shots."
The Yellow Jackets did make that one last run, but it was too little, too late.
"The idea is to wear them down, but we saw what that pressure did for us turning the ball over," Georgia Tech coach Paul Hewitt said. "Some of the fouls we committed in the first half were silly fouls – the ones we stayed away from the latter part of the season and certainly Friday night. That made us a little tentative in the second half. We weren't nearly as good."
Post-Game Notes
– Georgia Tech lost for the first time at the Bradley Center in the NCAA Tournament. The Yellow Jackets had won five straight NCAA Tournaments games at the arena, including wins over Houston and Southern California in 1992, victories against Northern Iowa and Boston College in 2004, and Friday's win over Oklahoma State.
– The Yellow Jackets fell to 1-2 in the NCAA Tournament as the No. 10 seed. Georgia Tech defeated Oklahoma State Friday, and lost as the 10th seed to UNLV, 67-63, in 2007. Overall, GT is 23-16 in the NCAA Tournament.
– Georgia Tech fell to 3-11 all-time against Ohio State. The Buckeyes last win came in a 65-61 decision March 17, 1991, also in the second round of the NCAA Tournament.
– The Yellow Jackets went on an 11-0 run starting with 4:02 remaining and capped by a Derrick Favors conventional three-point play to cut the Ohio State lead to 65-61 with 1:47 remaining. The four-point margin was as close as Georgia Tech had been since the 18:01 mark of the second half.
– Georgia Tech's Brian Oliver was called for an intentional foul with 1:13 remaining. Ohio State's David Lighty hit both free throws to extend to Ohio State lead to 69-61.
– Georgia Tech forced four turnovers and held the Buckeyes to one-of-eight from the field over Ohio State's first 12 possessions. The defense allowed GT to open up a 10-2 lead 6:19 in to the game.
– GT held Ohio State to 28 first half points, the 11th-fewest the Buckeyes have scored in a half this season, and the fifth-lowest in a half against a non-Big Ten opponent.
– The Yellow Jackets committed three turnovers and missed three shots in their first eight possessions of the second half.
– Georgia Tech's 21 turnovers were the fifth-highest the Yellow Jackets committed all season.
Individual Player Notes
– ACC Rookie of the Year Derrick Favors played only five minutes in the first half after picking up two early fouls. Favors did not attempt a shot until the 15:04 mark of the second half.
– Despite his late entry onto the scoreboard, Favors tallied 10 points. It was his 27th double-digit scoring effort of the season, and his 11th in a row. The total was also his lowest scoring output since a Feb. 13 match-up at Wake Forest when he score four points.
– Junior forward Gani Lawal scored 11 points, the 26th time this season he has reached double-figures.
– Favors and Lawal combined to play 45 minutes. That total is nearly nine fewer than their combined average of 53.6 minutes per game.
– Freshman guard Glen Rice, Jr scored 10 points, nearly doubling his season average of 5.3 points per game. Rice scored six points on free throws, and added two made shots from the field. Rice finished the year with six games scoring in double-figures.

Does X-commerce have big potential beyond pizza?
In a RetailWire poll last April, we asked how effective Pizza Hut's Xbox app would be in helping the chain connect with gamers, primarily young males. The Xbox app gives gamers the ability to place an order for pizza using their game controller, a Kinect gesture or even their voice. It appears that the majority of the poll respondents were correct: 86 percent thought the app would be effective.
According to a recent report on Polygon, Pizza Hut sold $1 million through the Xbox app in its first four months. Interestingly, 11 percent who placed an order used the app to make their very first online buy with the pizza chain.
"It's been a source of unbelievable growth for us," Doug Terfehr, director of public relations for Pizza Hut, told Polygon. "Just the explosion of people who wanted to download it, experiment with it, play with it with Kinect. As soon as we did one, everyone was contacting us to do the next [one]."

This is a fad that will pass quickly and forgettably. The Xbox One is a terrific device to be sure, but this example is a pure novelty effect. I'm willing to bet that the penetration of households regularly buying consumable products bought through it will be negligible for 2014 and well beyond. Let's move on….
The portals to the home will be rapidly changing as consumers move to "interactive" hubs, versus passive media consumption. Xbox is a prime example of moving consumers from a single function gaming device to an interactive portal.
Gaming consoles are not the only interactive portal. Apple TV and other streaming devices already have a host of apps that enable consumers to explore and purchase.
The other consumer brands that will probably benefit most are convenience items that can be quickly delivered to the home.
A very interesting test of products beyond food will occur in upcoming Super Bowl ad. It will be interesting to see if soccer star Beckham can hawk his new line of "knickers" via a click on a TV remote while the ad plays on TV.
Pizza and playing video games go hand-in-hand. And because you don't have to quit one to enjoy the other, the ability to multi-task made this a killer marketing strategy for the Hut.
However, that doesn't translate to success for all QSRs or other hard-line retailers. Those retailers who have a home delivery option will benefit the most.
Classic example of listening to the customer. Pizza Hut is effectively targeting the best prospects. Using the Prosper Media Behaviors & Influence (MBI) Study of 19,000+ respondents, we looked at the effectiveness of Pizza Hut's decision to use online video gaming to reach and influence their target of the 18-34 year old male.
Comparing online video gaming with video on mobile, mobile devices (smartphones, tablets), and coupons, online video gaming was the highest media form at influencing the 18-34 year old set – 48.1% said this media was part of their world. 58.0% of males pointed to online video. The next highest media form in both cases was video on mobile devices – 44.9% of Adults 18-34 and 52.3% of males said this medium was in their wheelhouse for dining out decisions.
Equally important, among Pizza Hut consumers – adults who choose Pizza Hut MOST often as restaurant, the online video gamer is 20% more likely to shop Pizza Hut than the video on mobile crowd and 3x as likely as the general population.
While I do not see this as an immediate success amongst other companies, and I do think that Pizza Hut picked up some of its success through the novelty of this service, there is potential going forward.
If other companies can execute the delivery and fulfillment well and the customer experience does not feel intrusive, then this could be a perfect way to capitalize on reaching out to consumers when they are captive to the screen. In a sense, many Xbox users are less likely to be looking at another screen while playing then if they were to be watching TV. Some of these apps/ads could be even more effective with the right promos.
Removing Xbox 360 from the discussion, new "smart TVs" have the capability to host apps that can perform the same function as the Pizza Hut ordering service.
The e-commerce opportunity will come into play when a viewer can interact with live TV to order items..which is coming soon with the smart TV technology.
Whoo Hoo! In Colorado, Pizza Hut should add THC brownies to the menu for gamers. Yum!
It is a great example of bringing activity and commerce together – like selling hot dogs at a ballpark. The point isn't how many other companies will create successful apps for X-Box, but rather how many companies will find ways to connect to consumers via technology in innovative and relevant ways.
For Pizza, yes, I think this makes sense (both my kids have Xbox, one the newest version, the other 360) and I could see that as a sales channel since it's already a channel for selling content (games, music, video, movies). I've heard Gartner's CPG analyst Don Scheibenreif cite Pizza Hut as a prime example of the opportunity so it's among the most visible.
For more frequently bought items part of the grocery basket though I think a services provider that aggregates orders for multiple items is more realistic.
It's a very interesting topic (CPG e-commerce) but I find people consider it in terms of sales direct to consumers from brands, without considering the likelihood of that relative to a services company like PeaPod. It can be a mix for sure, but ultimately it's someone like Amazon who will be the direct to consumer sales channels for CPG brands in my view.

The donations have come flooding in, with one anonymous donator purchasing three woollen blankets and eight balls of merino wool to assist the cause, while groups such as the Pahiatua Spinners Club have made the maternity ward one of their ongoing projects.
Midwife Kelly Fage, who has been coordinating the donations, has had about 50 phone calls with offers of wool, knitted clothing, and people who are keen to get crafty for the babies.
She said: "When this appeal first went out to the public, I was amazed at the response. The generosity shown by those in our communities has been incredible, and donations continue to come in. All the staff in the ward just want to say thank you to everyone who has volunteered their time and money."
"The staff and new parents are very appreciative of all the donations, and it's very helpful to have people offer ongoing support. As infection control procedures mean that the clothing can't be reused for others, the clothing items go home with the baby; so ongoing donations are very welcome, especially singlets, blankets, beanies, cardigans, and booties, in that order of importance."
Woollen clothing is needed, as babies are born without the ability to regulate body temperature, which in a worst case scenario can lead to hypothermia and admission to the Neonatal Unit. Wool is the warmest and safest material for newborns and can help prevent the babies' temperature from dropping too low, but it is often too hard access for many mothers.
Due to the number of donations, the Maternity Resource Centre has taken over receiving donations. These can be dropped in to the centre at 568 Ferguson Street, or you can ring Corrine on (06) 355 5230 for more information

And so we begin the Joseph story. In parashat Vayeshev, we read of Joseph the Dreamer, who annoys his brothers to the point where they do him bodily harm. He gets sold to Egypt, resists the amorous advances of his boss' wife, and though innocent, gets thrown into jail. In prison, he correctly interprets a few dreams for other inmates, the baker and the royal cupbearer. Joseph predicts that the cupbearer will be freed, and when he is, Joseph implores the cupbearer to remember him to the Pharoah, so he can get pardoned. The cupbearer forgets all about Joseph, and so he remains in prison.
Joseph is embarking on more than a journey into a new country, and facing more problems than being wrongfully imprisoned. For the first time, a Hebrew who identifies as one who believes in Israel's God is sent to, and must now live in, a foreign land all by himself. Abraham, Isaac and Jacob had their families and entourages, or they were actually living back in Canaan itself. Joseph, on the other hand, is a lone and lonely traveler, one who finds himself in Egypt through no intent or desire to be there. It is a foreign land in every sense of the word.
Quickly, Joseph learns to rely on the talents he has. Potiphar, the one who bought Joseph from the Ishmaelites, recognized that God was with Joseph, and gave him "authority over his household and over all that he owned." (Gen 39:5) All went well until Mrs. Potiphar's advances were rebuffed. The innocent young Joseph was no match for the enraged husband, so Joseph was thrown in jail. Even in jail, though, Joseph impressed the right people. And all the time, like Dorothy who kept saying, "There's no place like home," Joseph kept acknowledging that his faith in Israel's God hadn't wavered.
It seems, at first, Joseph was trying very hard to maintain his Hebrew identity. As with all immigrants, whether they arrive on foreign land by choice or not, Joseph was presented with the immigrant's dilemma: the balancing act, the tension between maintaining one's home identity and becoming part of the new land. To survive, it seems, Joseph chooses Egypt.
As the story progresses, Joseph becomes fairly acculturated into Egyptian society. He gets an Egyptian job with the Egyptian Pharoah, who gives him an Egyptian name. He marries an Egyptian woman, raises his sons in the Egyptian culture, and the Torah gives us no indication that he maintained any Israelite identity throughout any of these years. The process of Israelite assimilation into Egyptian society has begun.
This week, we celebrate Chanukah, and one aspect of the holiday is the issue of assimilation or acculturation into a larger, non-Jewish, dominant society in which the Jewish community is forced to exist. The Syrian Greek rulers had outlawed much of Jewish practice, and at the same time, the Priests of the Temple became more and more associated with the surrounding Greek culture, which was attracting the wealthier and more urban Jews. The traditionalists were mostly found out in the countryside, and were deeply concerned about not only the restrictions on Jewish life, but on the outwardly assimilated wealthier class which didn't seem to care about leaving behind traditional Jewish practice. Eventually, the traditionalists revolted against the occupiers, led by Judah and the other Maccabees. They routed the Greeks from the Temple, cleaned it up and rededicated it for Jewish use.
Chanukah is a many-layered holiday. There are civil, religious, historical, military, political and social lenses through which to see it. But the story of Joseph, the intrepid immigrant who makes his way in a new society, is always linked to Chanukah, because we always read his story at this time of the year. His journey is ours, as we also make our way, balancing our identities, our past, and our future.
May your Chanukah lights burn bright and strong, may the lights of the holiday bring light into the darkness of the winter, may your latkes be crisp, and may your dreidl always land on gimel.

1983 Pre-Season Trap Catch of Boll Weevil (Coloptera: Curculionidae) in Western Arizona Including a Comparison with the 1982 CatchAn adult boll weevil (Anthonomus grandis complex) trapping network was organized in the major cotton producing areas of western Arizona for the first four months of 1982 and 1983. The results for each year are summarized as the mean number of adult boll weevils caught per grandlure baited trap and adjusted for the number of days each trap was in operation. Where possible, the 6 major cropping areas were subdivided into trapping sectors which permitted more detailed analysis. The results indicate the boll weevil expanded its range in western Arizona between 1982 and 1983. In 1982, they were trapped in 432 of the sectors and in 1983, 96% of the sectors. The results also show an increase in population size between 1982 and 1983. The mean number of boll weevils BW caught per trap per day was 1 to 291 times greater in 1983 depending on trapping sector.
An Analysis of Hedging Strategies for Arizona Cotton ProducersThis study compared selected hedging strategies for Arizona upland cotton producers including a no- hedge, a planting hedge, and several technical hedging strategies for the time period 1974-82. Technical hedging strategies relied upon forecasting methods to signal the placing and lifting of hedges. Forecasting methods employed included moving averages, exponential smoothing and linear regression analysis. Hedging strategies were plotted in regions of preference relative to no-hedge and planting hedge strategies.
Cotton Planting Date and Planting RateDPL 41 and Pima S-5 cotton were planted at low, medium, and high planting rates on April 12, April 27, and May 10 on the Safford Experimental Farm in 1983. Heavy rains in late September and early October reduced lint yields. Pima S-5 produced 66% as much lint as DPL 41. Both varieties had the highest lint yield when planted on April 27. The highest planting rate produced the highest yield for DPL 41, while the medium planting rate produced the most lint for Pima S-5 on April 27.
Double Cropping Cotton after Small Grain in Graham CountySeveral upland cotton varieties and one Pima cotton variety were planted and watered up after Poco barley and Yecora Rojo wheat on the Safford Experimental Farm in 1983. Three upland varieties were planted and watered up on July 2. McNair 235 produced the most lint for all three late planting dates. Pima cotton produced the lowest yields. Single cropped DPL 90 produced $8.47 more income/acre than McNair 235, following Poco barley. However, double cropped cotton and barley produced $57.96 more/acre than single cropped cotton, followed by single cropped wheat.
Estimating Cotton Yields Using Small-Format Aerial PhotographyIn 1981, the University of Arizona's Department of Plant Pathology and Office of Arid Lands Studies (Arizona Remote Sensing Center) began a joint research project to map and estimate concomitant reductions in yield caused by Phymatotrichum root rot (PRR) using simulated orbital and airborne imagery. With support from the U.S. Department of Agriculture, Cooperative States Research Service and NASA-Ames Research Center, substantial progress has been made in improving estimates of yield. While work to date has been limited to cotton, future studies will include additional crops and other diseases.
