|Official Title
|Outcomes Registry for Better Informed Treatment of Atrial Fibrillation (ORBIT-AF)
|Brief Summary
|The ORBIT-AF registry will be a multicenter, prospective outpatient disease registry to identify "real world" treatment patterns of atrial fibrillation. The registry will describe this patient population with regards to demographics, clinical factors, risk stratification, and geographic regions. In particular, attention will be focused on the utilization, effectiveness, and safety of antithrombotic therapies in the prevention of stroke. The registry is designed to identify reasons and risk factors for non-receipt of anticoagulation (AC) therapy, as well as reasons why AF patients who are prescribed AC therapy do not take them.
|Detailed Description
|The ORBIT-AF registry is a multicenter prospective outpatient disease registry of patients with incident (initial diagnosis) or prevalent (existing diagnosis) atrial fibrillation (AF) that will analyze treatment patterns and outcomes in patients with AF in the US. Approximately 10,000 prospective cohort of patients will be enrolled. The registry will be a nation-wide collaboration of Health Care Providers (e.g., cardiologists, internists, primary care physicians, electrophysiologists, quality improvement personnel, office/practice managers, research coordinators, and pharmacists). This collaborative effort will be focused on the optimization of outpatient management of patients with AF. Consecutive patients who meet the eligibility criteria will be approached and educated about the registry. Patients who express interest will provide informed consent. Patients enrolled in the registry will be followed for approximately 3 years. Patient follow-up by their AF care provider will continue as scheduled according to local clinical practice. Patient Reported outcome (PRO) questionnaires will be administered to a sub-sample of approximately 1,500 patients. For patients who consent to answer PRO questionnaires, these questionnaires will be administered by the site to the patient at the baseline visit [except the baseline Anticoagulation-Related Treatment Satisfaction (ACTS)] and during their regularly scheduled follow-up visits. The baseline ACTS for incident patients will be completed and returned back to the site at least 4 weeks after starting antithrombotic therapies. The ACTS questionnaire will only be administered to patients who are taking antithrombotic therapies within the 4 weeks before a visit or newly prescribed antithrombotic therapies. Data collection will occur at 6-month intervals for a minimum of 3 years (baseline, 6 months, 12 months, 18 months, 24 months, 30 months, and 36 months). The data collection windows will be wide (3 months in either direction) in order to maximize data collection during the patients regularly scheduled follow-up with their AF care provider. Collection of Patient Reported Outcome (PRO) Questionnaires will not continue beyond the 24-month data collection interval. Atrial Fibrillation Data capture will include demographics, cardiovascular risk factors, diagnosis, type of AF (paroxysmal, persistent, permanent AF), treatment strategy (rate vs. rhythm), ablation history, cardioversions, antithrombotic therapy decisions and monitoring (INRs), concomitant medications and doses, insurance and provider information, AF quality-of-life, anticoagulation treatment satisfaction, caregiver assistance, pet ownership, comorbidities, compliance, and outcomes. Pre-defined outcomes of interest will include stroke or non-CNS (non-systemic) embolism, major adverse cardiac events, all-cause mortality, cause-specific death (sudden, non-sudden, heart failure-related), major bleeding, AF-related quality of life, anticoagulation-related treatment satisfaction, all-cause hospitalization and specific anticoagulation outcomes (e.g. time in therapeutic range and primary discontinuation of oral anticoagulation). The data generated by this registry will be used to identify real world practice, especially as it compares and relates to guidelines set forth by the American College of Cardiology, American Heart Association and European Society of Cardiology for the management of patients with AF. Observational Study - No investigational drug administered. For any patients receiving the sponsor's drug, Xarelto (rivaroxaban), under the direction of a physician, all serious adverse events and all non-serious related events will be reported to the sponsor (Janssen Scientific Affairs, LLC)

LIVINGSTON — Deputies arrested Albany High School former head football coach Bradley N. Ficklin on Friday and booked him with theft and malfeasance in office, the Livingston Parish Sheriff's Office reported.
Ficklin was accused of failing to turn in $4,000 he raised between Aug. 1 and Dec. 18 to buy an inflatable tunnel for the football team, sheriff's spokeswoman Lori Steele said in a news release.
The money was never deposited into the team's account and Albany High eventually purchased the tunnel with separate funds, Steele said.
Deputies booked Ficklin, 34, 30526 N. Willow, Livingston, into Livingston Parish Jail on one count of malfeasance in office and six counts of theft, Steele said.

Six weeks after more or less terminating their ECHL affiliation with the Johnstown Chiefs, the Tampa Bay Lightning issued a press release [3] today reporting that the team has entered into a one-year affiliation agreement with the Mississippi Sea Wolves of the ECHL. The Sea Wolves will serve as the Lightning's primary ECHL player developmental home for the 2007-2008 season. This marks a return by the Lightning organization to the Gulf Coast region and the ECHL Southeast Division, as Tampa had a multi-season affiliation with the Pensacola Ice Pilots prior to the affiliation with Johnstown.
Once a joint owner of the Chiefs which included managing the day-to-day Johnstown hockey operations, the Lightning's parntership with Johnstown soured after several disappointing seasons that culminated April 24 in the recall of all Tampa personnel from the Chiefs. The future of the Chiefs tenure in Johnstown has been the subject of much speculation as eroding attendance figures have cast financial shadows upon one of the ECHL's most storied franchises.
About the affiliation, Lightning Executive Vice President and General Manager Jay Feaster says "I had the opportunity to manage Coach Walby in Hershey, PA and he has also spent the past season working for us as a scout. He knows the game as well as anyone and he has a great ability to lead and develop young players.â€
"Everyone in the Tampa Bay Lightning organization is excited about our new partnership with the Mississippi Sea Wolves,†Lightning Assistant GM Claude Loiselle said. "I am particularly looking forward to working with Steffon Walby, Head Coach and General Manager of the Sea Wolves, as we continue to develop exciting, young hockey players for the Tampa Bay Lightning. We feel that the Gulf Coast area, with its history of great fans, will provide the ideal environment for our prospects. We are especially excited to be there as the Sea Wolves make their long-awaited return to the ice.â€
The Sea Wolves entered the ECHL in 1996 and have played 10 seasons in Biloxi. They will return to the ice this season after missing the previous two seasons due to damage inflicted on the Mississippi Coast Coliseum by Hurricane Katrina which included the loss of two Zambonis, ice making equipment, dasherboards, team offices and all hockey equipment. Mississippi won the Kelly Cup as champions of the ECHL in 1999. They will open their season on October 19 at the Florida Everblades in Estero.
The Sea Wolves anticipate that they could receive as many as six players as a result of the agreement.

The battle between environmentalists and the developers of the sprawling Newhall Ranch property in Santa Clarita has been long and contentious, and it shows signs of only getting more so.
The stakes are high for all — the developers of one of the largest residential and commercial projects in the county, the environmentalists who have fought to preserve wild open space there, the endangered creatures and flora that flourish in that habitat.
And much of what happens rests in the hands of Los Angeles Superior Court Judge Ann I. Jones, an expert on the state's environmental regulations, who was assigned to hear three cases filed against the project. The most significant of them, brought by the Center for Biological Diversity, contested the environmental impact report and plans for a conservation program. In that case, Jones ruled recently that the report was flawed and needed to be redone, a huge setback for the developers, who filed an appeal Tuesday.
Now the developers have filed a motion to disqualify the judge from sitting on the other two cases, arguing that she has a conflict of interest. It seems that Jones, who lives in Santa Clarita, is engaged in a property dispute with a next-door neighbor over his desire to split his lot. To fight his application to the Santa Clarita Planning Commission, Jones marshaled support from other neighbors in the community. One of those neighbors, who signed a petition supporting Jones' complaint and spoke against the lot-splitting proposal before the commission, was a local Sierra Club activist named Sandra Cattell.

Is Burma beginning to emerge from the political darkness of its recent past? While a military junta, some of its members now in civilian garb, has remained in charge since the rejection of multiparty elections in 1990, in recent months there has been some evidence of political thawing. Under house arrest off and on since 1989, Nobel Peace Prize laureate Aung San Suu Kyi was released in November 2010 and has been "actively in dialogue" with various ministers from the ruling party and with Burma's "moderate" President Thein Sein. The release of 100 political prisoners on Oct. 12 was another step forward, although thousands of political prisoners remain imprisoned under horrendous conditions.
Rangoon's Archbishop Charles Maung Bo said, "Changes are in progress" in Burma. "We are a people full of hope," said the archbishop, who is the president of the Office for Human Development of the Federation of Asian Bishops.
Burma's ruling party, Union Solidarity and Development, which "won" over 75 percent of the seats in a seriously flawed parliamentary election in November 2010, is still directly supported by Burma's military; and many of the "civilians" appointed by Thein Sein were drawn from among army ranks. All the same, cracks have emerged in the junta's rule. In addition to the release of Aung San Suu Kyi and the more recent prisoner release, the ruling party bowed to widespread public resistance and halted construction of a dam along the Irrawaddy River in Kachin territory. Trade unions are currently being tolerated, and there has been some evidence of loosening restrictions on Burmese media.
At best, though, opposition leaders will express only cautious optimism. They say it is still premature to predict what future developments may be. There is conflict within the ruling party's leadership, and Burma remains afflicted with a deep social divide and growing poverty. A recent report from Human Rights Watch suggests that progress toward reform in Burma will likely prove halting. The report charged that "serious abuses" have followed a renewal of hostilities between the Burmese military and the Kachin Independence Army after a 17-year ceasefire broke down in June. The human rights watchdog group said Burmese armed forces have been responsible for killings and attacks on civilians, using forced labor and pillaging villages.
"Renewed fighting in Kachin State has meant renewed abuses by the Burmese army against Kachin villagers," said Elaine Pearson, deputy Asia director at Human Rights Watch. "Tens of thousands of people have fled through the mountains and jungle at the height of the rainy season, driven away by fear of army attacks."
"For over half a century," said Archbishop Bo during a visit to India for the meeting of the Asian bishops, "the country has been led by a military regime that has confiscated our mission schools, expelled foreign priests [so that] today we have only local priests." The archbishop said the church in Burma is not the victim of "direct persecution," but there are "restrictions" and "discrimination" on this religious minority that makes up "only 1.3 percent of the population." However, he said, "there have been positive signs" over the last year for the church in Burma, including thousands of baptisms.
Archbishop Bo argues that Burma should look to the example of India as it continues down the democratic path. He said, "India is the largest democracy in the world, with freedom of expression, religion and press." Archbishop Bo called it a "very important" point of reference because "in many South Asian countries these freedoms are controlled. India, on the contrary, is a source of inspiration for all."

Joe Chambers
Medina was another Bobby Hutcherson/Harold Land Quintet session that didn't see the light of day until over a decade later (recorded in 1969, issued in 1980). Again, it's hard to see why, given the high quality of both the group and their music, which seemed to get lost in the shuffle of jazz's late-'60s upheaval. Granted, it may have been a shade less distinctive than Hutcherson's earliest sessions, but the levels of composition and execution remained top-notch. Drummer Joe Chambers, pianist Stanley Cowell, and Hutcherson each contribute two numbers apiece, and each is advanced and has at least something of its own flavor -- the Erik Satie influence on Hutcherson's gentle "Comes Spring," for example, or the meditative Eastern feel of Cowell's flute-centered "Orientale." Chambers and bassist Reggie Johnson turn in some of their finest work with the Hutcherson-Land unit, as many of the pieces incorporate stuttering, rapidly shifting rhythms and frequent time-signature changes. Soulful yet firmly modern, this group was solid from top to bottom, and Medina is yet another fine piece of supporting evidence.

In boys basketball: Lake Region dominates Stowe in 93-38 rout
by Harris Kinsey
copyright the Chronicle 2-5-2013
Hoping to get stay undefeated, The Lake Region boys varsity took on Stowe on Friday, February 1, at Don Harter Memorial gymnasium. They dominated all areas of the game, and routed Stowe 93-38. Caleb Prue was the high scorer of the night with 22 points. Dakota Mcallister added 16 points, while Drew Gallup and Anthony Wright contributed 14 points and 10 points, respectively. Petey Walsh led Stowe with eight points, but Stowe had a tough assignment playing an undefeated team on the road, and it was apparent from the get go that this game wasn't going to be close.
The first quarter started fast for Lake Region with Dennis Newland scoring on a layup 20 seconds into the game to put Lake Region up 2-0. Lake Region's defense was dominant, and held Stowe scoreless until the 4:45 mark when Robert Buonanno scored on a layup. Stowe would score only eight points the whole quarter, while Lake Region completely picked apart their defense and scored 22 points, 12 by Prue. The first quarter ended with the score at 22-8 in Lake Region's favor.
The second quarter started with Stowe getting the first score on a jumper by Buonanno. Lake Region, however, would answer right back five seconds later with a score to make the score 24-10. Lake Region's defense was just as dominant as it was in the first quarter. They full-court trapped, played half-court defense, and forced turnover after turnover — mainly steals and bad passes. Stowe couldn't do anything at all and scored only nine points in the second quarter, while Lake Region would score 28 points. At halftime the score was 50-17 in favor of Lake Region.
The third quarter started with Lake Region scoring first on a layup by Gallup. Stowe would answer back with Max King scoring on a layup. Lake Region's defense was just as dominant in the third quarter as it had been all game. Stowe finally scored in double digits in a quarter with 15 points in the third. Stowe's defense played better and held Lake Region to "only" 20 points. After three quarters Lake Region led 70-32.
When the fourth quarter got under way it was quite obvious that Lake Region was going to win in a rout. But Lake Region kept playing as if the game was close. Gallup would hit a jumper 15 seconds into the quarter for the first score of the fourth. Stowe would answer back on a layup by Buonanno. Lake Region's defense took over the game again and Stowe couldn't score, or do anything, against the Ranger defense. Stowe would manage only six points in the fourth quarter, while Lake Region picked apart Stowe's defense again, and scored 23 points in the fourth. The game ended with the score 93-38 Lake Region.
After the game LR Coach James Ingalls said, "For the first time we played Ranger basketball for all 32 minutes. We had not done that in all the other wins we've had, and we finally did that tonight. All the players played well. We had big contributions off the bench. We played well defensively. Also on the offensive end as a team we had 27 assists. It was a team effort."

The Standard & Poor's 500 Index rallied to a record following the Federal Reserve's decision to cut stimulus yesterday. The Fed said it will cut its monthly bond purchases to $75 billion from $85 billion starting in January as the labor market improves. The central bank also said it will likely keep its benchmark interest rates low "well past the time" that the jobless rate falls below its target of 6.5%. An additional report showed previously owned home sales declined for the third consecutive month. Yields on 10-year Treasury notes rose to a three-month high and are continuing to tick higher this morning.
Equities: The MAR14 E-mini S&P 500 (CME:ESH14) had an amazing post-Fed rally yesterday, but is now down 3.5 points to 1801. We believe this market is having a difficult time staying above 1810, and could very well head back to a key pivot level of 1785 soon. We also believe there might be much higher volatility going forward as there seems to be MORE uncertainty now in the market as to the ideal way to interpret incoming economic data. If the market can stay above 1785, we believe that is a very bullish technical sign.
Bonds: The taper did indeed have a big effect on the bond market, but this effect is just getting started. The 10- and 30-year bond yields could start to trend higher. The MAR14 30-year bonds (CBOT:ZBH14) are down 6 ticks to 129'02, but interestingly the MAR14 10-year note (CBOT:ZNH14) is down 24.5 ticks to 123'17. Our next key support level for the 10-year note is 118, and it will approach this level over the coming months. We also watch the JUN15/JUN16 Eurodollar spread, and believe this spread could trend higher over the next 2 years.
Currencies: The MAR14 U.S. Dollar Index (NYBOT:DXH14) spiked higher yesterday after an initial whipsaw period, and is now up 51 ticks to 80.76. We noted a technical target area recently of 82.50, and still believe this is possible. The MAR14 Swiss Franc (CME:SFH14) is down big today, trading lower by 113 ticks to 111.61. The MAR14 Yen (CME:J6H14) is down 62 ticks to 96.04. We believe the Yen could keep heading lower as well, possibly down to 92.
Commodities: FEB14 gold (COMEX:GCG14) is reacting strongly to the taper this morning, down $36 to $1,198. Gold is susceptible to testing and possibly breaking 2013 lows, and is much closer to doing that today. JAN14 WTI crude oil (COMEX:CLF14) is up $.91 to $98.71, and seems very strong post-taper, and in light of the potential for there to be less stocks at Cushing because of the Keystone pipeline. MAR14 copper (COMEX:HGH14) is down $.0295 to $3.2895. Now that the Fed has tapered, some of the tailwinds behind copper's recent rally are gone.

RADNOR, Pa., Jan. 30, 2013 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- PolyMedix, Inc. (OTCBB:PYMX), a biotechnology company dedicated to developing novel treatments for infectious diseases with defensin-mimetic antimicrobials, today announced that Nicholas Landekic's employment with the company has ceased and that he will be pursuing other interests. Mr. Landekic was the company's president and chief executive officer and Edward F. Smith, who has served as the company's chief financial officer since January 2006, has been appointed as the interim president and chief executive officer.
PolyMedix remains committed to pursuing its strategic and financial alternatives in its efforts to increase stockholder value.
About PolyMedix, Inc.
PolyMedix is a clinical stage biotechnology company dedicated to transforming the treatment of infectious diseases. PolyMedix is developing a new class of antibiotics – defensin-mimetics – for the treatment of serious, life-threatening infections which often develop resistance to currently available antibiotics. PolyMedix's compounds are designed to imitate the mechanism of action of host defense proteins, which contribute to natural human immunity. In contrast to existing antibiotics, PolyMedix's lead antibiotic compound, brilacidin (formerly PMX-30063), was designed to exploit a method of bacterial cell killing, via biophysical membrane attack, against which bacteria have not shown development of resistance in multiple preclinical studies.
PolyMedix has internally developed an extensive pipeline of compounds, including other defensin-mimetic antimicrobial compounds for other infectious diseases, such as Gram-negative pathogens, fungal infections, and malaria.

WASHINGTON (AP) — U.N. Ambassador Susan Rice says she withdrew from consideration for secretary of state because she didn't want to endure confirmation hearings that were "very politicized."
Rice also says she wouldn't have wanted her nomination to have delayed or distracted President Barack Obama from pursuing his second term agenda. Given that possibility, she says she prefers to stay doing a job she loves at the U.N.
Rice has faced withering criticism from some congressional Republicans who have taken issue with her initial statements about the attack on Americans in Benghazi, Libya. Some lawmakers had indicated they would hold up her confirmation hearing if Obama had tapped her for the job.
Rice spoke in an interview with NBC News.

ROCHESTER — The parents of a journalist who has been missing in Syria since he was kidnapped more than a month ago are planning to hold a news conference at their New Hampshire home today.
A statement released online Wednesday by the family of James Foley, of Rochester, said he was kidnapped in northwest Syria by unknown gunmen on Thanksgiving day.
The statement appealed to those holding Foley to contact the family "so we can work together toward his release."
Foley, 39, has worked in a number of conflict zones around the Middle East, including Syria, Libya and Iraq.
He was contributing videos to Agence France-Press while in Syria.
The news agency quoted its chairman, Emmanuel Hoog, as saying it was doing all it could to secure Foley's release.
"He is a professional journalist who is absolutely neutral in this conflict," Hoog said.
Foley grew up in Wolfeboro and graduated from Kingswood Regional High School in 1990. He later earned an undergraduate degree in history from Marquette University in Milwaukee, a masters of fine arts degree in writing from the University of Massachusetts-Amherst and a graduate degree in journalism from Northwestern University in Illinois.
Foley's parents moved to Rochester in 1993 when James was in college. John Foley, a doctor at Wentworth-Douglass Hospital, previously described his son as an "adventurous" man with a passion for writing.
During his last semester at Northwestern, James Foley spent time embedded with the Indiana National Guard in Iraq, spurring his interest in war reporting, according to his parents.
John Foley said his son later went to Afghanistan with the 101st Airborne Division.
He documented his travels on a blog, "A World of Troubles," which chronicled his experience beginning in February 2008.
In 2011, Foley was taken prisoner in Libya along with three other journalists by forces loyal to Moammar Gadhafi. He was working as a freelance contributor for the Boston-based news agency GlobalPost at the time.
According to his parents, James Foley has been a freelance journalist for about seven years. He also worked as a teacher with Teach for America in Phoenix, Ariz., and also dabbled in fiction writing.
Foster's reported in 2011, Foley went missing in Libya when he was detained by pro-Gadhafi forces on April 5. Foley said he was interested in getting into Libya following news of a rebel uprising and entered the country with relative ease via the Egyptian border. He quickly found himself in Benghazi.
Some days were spent in "Revolutionary Square," which Foley described as a "bombed out shell covered in anti-Gaddafi artwork." The square served as a media hub where journalists would gather to get information, share information and attend regular press conferences.
On other days he and fellow news gatherers would journey to the front line to view the action for themselves. Foley said it was typical to spend 5-6 hours talking to rebels, "trying to get a sense of what was going on," before heading back to Benghazi.
On May 18, 2011, Foley was released, making his way across the Tunisia border to safety with a fellow journalist who was also captured, Clare Gillis.
"It's an amazing feeling of freedom to be in Tunisia. Just to be able to walk to a car and know that we're not going to another detention center or trial is a relief," James Foley told GlobalPost after he and Gillis were released.

Deciding who is Lord of the Balls
The last two weeks marked a period in the history of the world that will be remembered in books, newspaper and magazine archives, multi-media libraries, and computer databases at least until life as we know it comes to an end.
Starting with the French Open tennis tournament, followed by the U. S. Open golf tournament, and the yet to be decided National Basketball Association finals, the Lords of the balls have been at the forefront of the news.
These sporting events have drawn more media attention than all the wars, natural disasters, and political contests put together.
We can only hope that the space guys have not been watching the earth too closely or they would definitely get the wrong idea about the structure of our hierarchy. If they asked to see our leaders this weekend, they would probably be disappointed.
According to what they have observed, Rafael Nadal, winner of the French Open, Tiger Woods, winner of the U. S. Open, and Doc Rivers coach of the Boston Celtics and Los Angeles Lakers respectively, should be leading the welcoming committee.
Although floods in China and the Midwestern U. S. have made tens of thousands homeless, injured, and without the basic necessities of life, more money and time has been spent on sports-related events than on helping these unfortunate people.
If I were watching the earth from another planet, I would think the earthlings were selecting their leaders because of the attention that has been focused on the aforementioned sporting extravaganzas. They have the pomp and ceremony of coronations, presidential inaugurations, and celebrations that mark the birth of royalty.
Recognized athletes are regarded with more respect and reverence than most people in high political offices. Nobody could fault anyone from the interplanetary community if they thought earthlings selected their leaders from those who could best manipulate a ball.
Whether it be a baseball, basketball, golf ball, tennis or soccer ball is of little consequence. The fundamental criteria for guaranteeing awestruck adoration from fellow human beings is to be a master at playing with one of those balls.
I wouldn't be surprised if the space guys perceive our place in the intergalactic scheme of things as little more than semi-interesting pets. Just throw the humans a ball and they'll be amused for hours, maybe even days. They might sell us at their local Petco. The price on our heads would be determined by our prowess at doing amusing things with balls.
Think about it seriously for a minute. Last week, cosmologists were treated to one of the most awesome events that can happen in the universe. For the first time in history, scientists observed the final moments before a doomed star exploded into space. They actually witnessed the explosion of a dying sun. That's awesome! Every kid on the planet should know about that. The event received less attention than a Miami Dolphins off-season scrimmage.
I really think we need to change our image before anyone from any other solar system is going to take us seriously enough to drop in and say hello. Why would they? Does anyone really need a relationship with a society that believes the pinnacle of success is achieving superior ball manipulation skills? I don't think so.
It is rather sad that all of the champions who won their tournaments in the last couple of weeks were paid more than our president- a lot more. I don't doubt that they were more interesting to watch, and they are more popular, but I don't know that I'd want any of them running the country. Maybe we should consider that for a second.
For a few million dollars, you can buy the best athlete in the world in almost any ball-oriented sport. Maybe if we paid a little more, we could get better leaders. It's just a thought. Our children might be inspired to think that high political office could offer a better future than being a basketball star. Right now that is not the case.
Let's face it. The Lords of the balls rule. It's just another part of that system we can't understand.

BOSTON (AP) — Police and state inspectors are examining whether one or both doors of an elevator at Boston's Fenway Park opened before a woman plunged two stories down an elevator shaft after a game, officials said Saturday.
The 22-year-old woman fell from the fourth floor and landed on the roof of the elevator, which was stopped on the second floor. It happened late Friday after the Red Sox lost to the Detroit Tigers, said Steve MacDonald, a spokesman for the Boston Fire Department.
Power to the elevator was shut off, and firefighters climbed through the elevator's emergency hatch to reach the woman, who was transported to Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center, MacDonald said.
"Everyone worked together to get her out as soon as possible," he said.
MacDonald said the woman was unconscious at the scene with injuries that appeared serious. A hospital spokesman said no information would be released about the woman's condition.
Terrel Harris, a spokesman for the state Department of Public Safety, said the elevator had been taken out of service and would not be used again until inspectors conduct a full investigation.

Sorry for the delay guys, uni is starting and I had to do some paperwork. Also, Lego movie happened.
The Iron Jarl - Quantumsurfer
The corpse grinder assaults Albrecht with a flurry of belches and punches but fails to damage the prince.
The skeletal archers fire a hail of arrows at the runeknight, knocking down 1 hp.
'Only true warlords deserve the luxury of riding into battle.'
The Jarl himself then jumps up and boots the knight out of its saddle. No damage though.
The skeletal mass moves onward and kills 2 more of Albrecht's swordsmen.
Flint - Alex
Flint's crossbowmen advance, aim, fire... and all of them miss.
'Well that's just pathetic lads, must I do anything here?' says Flint as he grabs a small amount of gunpowder and chews it.
He then spits it in his mug full of mad mead, which result in a volatile concoction!
Flint chugs the explosive booze into the skeletal rabble, destroying 3 of them.
Albrecht - lawmaster
The runeknight's steed decides to rush onwards, using its momentum against the structure of the cage.
The horse successfully headbutts the cage apart, freeing Gil! *lawmaster gains him as a new hero unit, however Gil is unarmed*
The runeknight gets up and attacks the Jarl but fails to harm him.
Meanwhile, as the last swordsman is holding the line against the sea of corpses, Albrecht does the unthinkable...
He lunges up...
... and forces himself inside corpse grinder!
*Gameplay wise this means that Albrecht is inside CG. At the start of each turn, Albrecht will suffer 1d6 stomach acid damage, with an additional +1 damage modifier after each additional round spent inside the monster.*
Liana - Scratch
Liana and her troops back up Albrecht's team, but they only manage to take down one skeleton.

Overselling Overmedication: The panic over pill-popping may be wrong
"People have been unofficially drugging themselves for as long as they've had the capability to do so. They smoked cigarettes to boost their concentration. They drank cocktails with lunch and dinner — and more — to deal with anxiety and despair. Prior to the modern era of F.D.A.-regulated prescribing practices, they slugged down untold quantities of tonics and bromides. All of which suggests that what social critics now identify as the signature event of our time (the urge to manage psychic pain through substance use) may, in fact, almost always have been a facet of the human condition. It may just be that we're better at it than ever before – with cleaner, safer, less addictive and debilitating tools at our disposal." READ MORE >

The Wire's War on the Drug War
"Jury nullification is American dissent, as old and as heralded as the 1735 trial of John Peter Zenger, who was acquitted of seditious libel against the royal governor of New York, and absent a government capable of repairing injustices, it is legitimate protest. If some few episodes of a television entertainment have caused others to reflect on the war zones we have created in our cities and the human beings stranded there, we ask that those people might also consider their conscience. And when the lawyers or the judge or your fellow jurors seek explanation, think for a moment on Bubbles or Bodie or Wallace. And remember that the lives being held in the balance aren't fictional."

FAYETTEVILLE Nearly a decade removed from roaming its sidelines, Gary Blair proved Sunday he still knows how to win in Bud Walton Arena.
Blair led No. 24 Texas A&M to a 63-51 win over the No. 23 Razorbacks in his first game back in Fayetteville, improving to 2-0 against his former team and former assistant, Tom Collen.
The Aggies (12-5, 2-0) won their first road Southeastern Conference game in their inaugural season in the league. Arkansas fell to 12-3 overall and 0-2 in conference play.
Texas A&M opened the game with an 18-4 run and never trailed. Arkansas hit only 25 percent of its field goal attempts in the opening half and trailed 30-17 at the intermission.
The Razorbacks used a 9-0 run to pull within 43-37 on a Sarah Watkins jumper with 8:37 remaining, but got no closer.
Texas A&M responded with an 11-0 run, quickly increasing its lead to 17 points. The Aggies held the Razorbacks without a made field goal for nearly four minutes during the stretch and Arkansas never got within single-digits again.
Watkins led the Razorbacks with a game-high 19 points and Keira Peak added 11. Courtney Williams led Texas A&M with 16 points, and Kelsey Bone added a double-double with 11 points and 14 rebounds.
Texas A&M overcame 24 turnovers in the win. The game was a rematch of second round matchup in the NCAA Tournament last season, a 61-59 Aggies win.
Arkansas returns to the court Thursday with a home game against LSU.

WORCESTER - Worcester Regional Airport would continue to operate even if budget cuts require the pulling of air traffic controllers, airport Director Andy Davis said in a statement released yesterday.
According to one report, the sequester's across-the-board budget cuts will slash $600 million from the Federal Aviation Administration, which will in turn have to furlough air traffic controllers. More than 100 air traffic control towers will be shuttered.
Mr. Davis said in his statement that the likely effects of sequestration would begin affecting Worcester Regional Airport in April.
However, "There are well-established procedures used by aviators and airports to maintain safe, efficient operations during times when there are no air traffic controllers on duty at an airport. Indeed, the majority of airports around the country have no air traffic control," Mr.Davis said.
"Worcester relies on these procedures every day between the hours of 9 p.m. and 6:30 a.m. when the tower is not staffed. If the tower cannot be staffed because of sequestration these procedures would be in place 24/7."

Forget what you think you know about sound recording: the traditional home microphone is dead. Never again should a mini-jack plug have to run its awful buzzing signal into your Mac's mic socket.
The digital domain of USB is here – and it's better. Blue's Yeti, the beastly sequel to its groundbreaking Snowball USB mic, exudes a retro charm completely at odds with its next-gen makeup.
The heavy 50s-style metal construction – complete with a brilliantly designed large-footprint table stand – lends it an air of seriousness that its little brother (a white plastic orb) missed.
One advantage of its 5v-powered USB makeup is that the Yeti is able to put many of the most important recording controls on board. There's a built-in gain dial, essential if you're recording quiet or distant sounds and useful for preventing later processing.
It also features a volume knob for the live-monitoring headphone amp, a mute button to pause recording, and the most important control of all: the pattern switch, which selects between the four operating modes of its triple-capsule array.
The Yeti's quality was clear and full in every test we gave its multiple patterns, though you may want to invest in a pop-shield for the best possible results. Its omni-directional mode captured a room full of chatting people clearly and loudly, the cardioid and bi-directional patterns were pleasingly precise (although you'll need to lean close to the mic to get the best from them), and its stereo pattern is perfect for podcasting, neatly separating multiple voices gathered around a table.
Whether that range of functionality does enough to counter the Yeti's one obvious disadvantage – the fact that you're tethered to a single mic rather than a multi-head setup – is a matter of taste.
But bear in mind that an external mixer and the relevant microphones to replace its stereo function will cost a lot more than the Yeti, and this is an unquestionably high-quality mic (THX certified, no less) at a ridiculously reasonable price.

Skin care experts agree that moisture is key when it comes to keeping your skin healthy and supple during the dry winter months.
Cold winter air and home heating can cause the skin to dry out. Keeping the skin moisturized and protected during the winter months is critical.
Most people are guilty of "over cleansing" with hot water and harsh soaps that can rob the skin of its natural moisture. This effect is heightened during dry winter months, when there is less humidity in the air.
The following tips are suggested to keep your skin looking healthy and refreshed in the winter and throughout the year:
Your arms, back and legs don't need to be soaped-up during every bath or shower; plain water rinses these areas well, but it makes sense to soap the underarms and private areas every day.
Moisturizers have emollient qualities, so applying them daily helps the skin stay hydrated and feel softer. By creating smoother skin, they can help reduce the appearance of aging. The best time to moisturize your skin is after bathing, when the skin is still warm and moist.
Scientifically, there's no data to support natural versus synthetic moisturizer products. Many moisturizers can be good for the skin - the goal is to use them. It's really a matter of preference whether you like lotions that are less greasy, or heavier moisturizers like thick creams, oils, or Vaseline for your moisturization needs.
If one is good about using moisturizers on a regular basis (at least daily in the winter time) and the skin remains dry or itches, a visit to your dermatologist would be recommended.
It is also suggested that you continuing to use sunscreen daily during the winter months, since ultraviolet rays are present whether it's warm or cold. Everyone, especially fair-skinned individuals, should apply a daily sunscreen with a protection factor of 15 or more every day.

Cool, yes, but not raining! As I've said before, we can take rain, we can take wet, but the two together aren't much fun. This morning, for the most part, was fun. Despite being a Tuesday ride (typically the harder one), the testosterone had been left at home, so Ludo, John, Eric, Nigel and I had a pretty civilized ride, with nothing getting tested until West-side Old LaHonda, and even that was pretty moderate.
Speaking of tested, I finally figured out how to shoot viewable video from my Contour HD1080 camera. Prior to this, everything's been really jerky as each bump jostles the camera and causes it to vibrate. My solution was a bit unorthodox and definitely not very pretty, but the results were great!
I'll post the results shortly; I'm uploading about 15 minutes of video to YouTube. It's unedited and without audio, but you'll get an idea of what West-side Old LaHonda is like, including the run through the forest which, until now, has been nearly unfilmable.
Regarding the "road's gonna go" teaser, I'm talking about that section of West-side Old LaHonda where the road has been slipping away and they've done some cheap & temporary fill to try and keep things in place. Well, after last week's rain, the pavement in the area is crumbling and it's not going to be too long before the roadway won't support a large vehicle. Our fear is that they might stop maintaining the road entirely, letting that section completely slip away because, after all, how many actually need to use it as a through road (other than cyclists)? Hopefully the video I shot today won't have historical value in the near future.
I was having a bit of fun heading down 84, with the dry pavement letting me push through the corners a bit harder so I had no trouble keeping up with Nigel and John, but about halfway down noticed that Eric and Ludo were no longer with us. Sometimes Eric can be a bit conservative on the descents, so I didn't think too much of it until we got to the bottom and… no Eric, no Ludo. We waited… and waited… John kept on riding for a bit but Nigel and I headed back up the hill, hoping we weren't going to find them picking up pieces of their bikes from the roadway and admiring each others road rash. Fortunately, the more-likely and less-painful scenario played out. Eric had gotten a flat, and Ludo stayed to help (good thing, since Eric's pump didn't work). Unfortunately, Nigel and I had to climb almost halfway back up 84 before intercepting them on their way down!
But adding a few more miles and a bit more climbing on a nice morning with a friendly group of cyclists… there are a lot worse ways to start the day. –Mike–

When you're kicking off an interview with the one-and-only Snoop Dogg and he picks up the phone in mid-rap, you know you're in for a treat. While the iconic rapper — who's been laying rhymes since 1992, when his smooth, West Coast flow first made waves on Dr. Dre's seminal album, The Chronic — was promoting his new album More Malice last week, he took a short break to talk to us about his short movie, Malice in Wonderland, working with cartoon supergroup The Gorillaz, and his recent appearance on One Life to Live. While we only had a few minutes with Snoop D-O-Double-G, you can spend a bit more time with him yourself: In addition to the film, you can also find select music videos, including "I Wanna Rock" from the rapper's most recent albums. — Rebecca Harper (), Editor
On his movie, Malice in Wonderland:
"The story was taken from my music, from my album. I wanted to make a movie that represented what I was going through when I was making the record, so I put a story together. It's based on a superhero that I created. His name is Malice, and he lives in a place called Wonderland. Malice wants to overthrow the dictator, whose name is Cain, and bring some peace and some harmony to Wonderland. There aren't any black superheroes, so I felt like I should step up to the plate and create one."
On his appearance on One Life to Live:
[Singing] "All that I had … one life to live … I created a theme song for it, too. I love that show. I told them how much of a fan I was of the show, and that I wanted to be on it. I had my people reach out to them and they made it happen. I was kind of like trying to get on that show because I felt like it was a great look for me, and I love the show. It just worked out perfect."
On being able to visit London now that he's no longer banned from entering the U.K.:
"Some stuff happened at the airport a while back, and they misunderstood me and just banned me from the country. But the people and the community love me and they got me back in. Now I can finally be admitted over there."
His favorite show on Hulu:
"Lost. [But he hasn't been able to watch this season.] I've been on the move, I've got to get caught up."

Zin gets hit by the wave and explodes into smoke. The real Zin jumps out of that smoke holding the real smoke grenade. "Fool you know nothing of stratagy. I distracted you and now you have lost your dragon cause of it." Zin slams the smoke grenade into the dragons head. "In about 3 seconds your dragon will die from that. I hope you had a nice time with it." Zin jumps down and lands softly on the ground. Zin takes out a few smoke bombs and turns to face as holding smoke bombs in one hand and Pillar in the other. "Now what are you gonna do??"
"I've been up late writing books, all about heroes and crooks." Yellowcard,...
Ryu's dragon is a deity. Logically speaking, deities can't be killed. However, the blue dragon has over stayed his visit and has dissapeared. Then Ryu does his Blue Fire Clone Jutsu and creates 20 clones of himself. Five clones are attacking with the Blue Dragon Palm. Five other clones are attacking with the Blue Dragon Kick. Five other clones attack with the Fire Release: Sacred Blue Fire Ball Jutsu. The five remining clones begin to move with fast lightening speed. It almost looks like they have dissapeared from the battle field. Ryu has figured that this fight is taking too long and wants to end it as soon as possible. Ryu is still debating whether or not he should use his forbidden deathblow.
OOC:Just cause it is a deity does not mean it can't be killed. They can't die cause they are immortal but they can be killed. Unless they are both invincible and immortal which would be unfair. And even if he truly can't die he would be incapacitated by that move and not able to battle for at least a week. The smoke seeps into the body and tries to react. It can't so it expands rappidly or blows up destroying organs. In the dragons case the brain since I put it in the head.
Zin jumps high into the air and spins like a top throwing shurikens at every angle destroying the clones. "Clone barrages are nothing to me. They are just a waste of chakra to you."
"I've been up late writing books, all about heroes and crooks." Yellowcard,...
Zin fell into Ryu's trap. Zin may have taken out the fifteen clones that were attacking him. But he didn't take into account the other five that were moving faster then the eye can track. They managed to dodge the shurikens due to their incredible speed. The fifteen clones were just distractions. Anyway, two of the clones grab Zin's legs. Two other clones grab Zin's arms. The fifth clone grabs on to Zin's torso and covers Zin's mouth to restrict his breathing. Ryu concentrates his chakra and uses his Ultimate Blue Dragon Fist. Ryu then runs at Zin to deliver the forbidden death blow. Things are looking pretty bad for Zin. Will he manage to get out of this one?
"Fool I was counting on this. Have you ever heard of the expression, you have been logged? Well let me tell you. You have been Logged!!!!!!!!! Smoke Shape!!" Zin's entire body turns to smoke. The smoke moves away from the clones and out of the way of ryu's move. Zin rematerializes behind and away from ryu. "Smoke cannon!!" Solid balls of smoke shoot forth from all of the places where the 15 clones had been. Those balls hit the 5 clones that now sit in mid air stupified and destroy them. "Now that you have tried your best move. Let me show you a real ultimate technique." Zin uses smoke jump to jump out of one of the smoke balls that destroyed a clone. Zin is now directly above ryu. Zin's mask slides open. "Smoke Symphony Verse1!!"
Smoke Symphony Verse 1: Zin blows smoke out of his mouth that covers the entire area in a thick cloud of smoke. While in the smoke Zin makes smoke clones in a complete circle around the enemy. Zin and the clones then start throwing a shuriken at every angle so they come from everywhere and it is hard to dodge or figure out where Zin is. During this Zin manips the smoke into sharp blades that cut the enemy as they pass, which is almost every second. This last about 3 mins.
"I've been up late writing books, all about heroes and crooks." Yellowcard,...
By the way Ryu is running at this point. His technique is still active. Like the Chidori, Ryu needs to be taken down in order to cancel the tech. Ryu jumps off a tree and heads in the direction of Zin while using his Fire Release: Blue Dragon Inferno in that direction. "This fight is ridiculously long. I still have a few techniques up my sleeve. Do you want to keeping fighting or do you want to call a truce."
"I would never call a truce. The whole idea of you proposing it means you think your gonna lose. Why would I call a truce when I am winning? Battle on!" Zin uses smoke jump to jump out behind ryu and grab his leg then trhowing him to the ground.(There is smoke everywhere thanks to the symphony beginning) "Now feel the full force of my symphony!!"
OOC:I am performing the move now. I was just preparing it earlier. It is still in the last post so I will not post it again.
"I've been up late writing books, all about heroes and crooks." Yellowcard,...
Ryu does his Summoning Jutsu: Sommuning of The Legendary Blue Dragons. Instead of summoning the father dragon (which is injured) Ryu summons four of his offspring. Ryu takes flight on one dragon and has all of his dragons scorch the earth and forest with Sacred Blue Fire. The dragons begin fanning and spreading the fire to create a massive forest fire. "C'mon c'mon. Hurry up and just surrender. Yeah yeah. I know I tried to protect the forest. But now I don't care. I just want to win. WIN DAMN IT!!!"
"You are a fool. I don't care what kind of fire you have there is one thing that is true about every fire. When it burns it produces smoke! That means you are just feeding my power!" Zin gathers the massive amount of smoke around him and covers his body in it allowing him to go into Hyper Smoke mode.(Just a beefed up version of smoke mode) Zin then slides his mask opne and takes a deep breath of the smoke swirling around him to regain the 2 breaths he used up earlier. Zin then jumps and with the power of the Hyper Smoke mode on him he jumps higher than imaginable. Zin then stands on what seems to be a cloud of smoke hovering like nimbus. Zin then takes smoke from the fires and gathers it infront of him. "I also know a few things about dragons. This is not the first time I have fought them. They share one common thing that all creatures share. The need to breath!!" Zin shoots giant clounds of smoke into each of the dragons faces shoving the smoke down their throats and noses. With smoke entering there lungs and no air to breath they will soon suffocate. Zin just keeps the smoke coming from the raging fire down below. Zin has a seemingly endless amount of smoke thanks to the fire.
"I've been up late writing books, all about heroes and crooks." Yellowcard,...
Unfortunately, Ryu didn't barbaque Zin like he hoped. So he jumps off his dragon and uses a large version of his Sealing Of The Sacred Blue Fire Jutsu to put out the forest fire immediately. Ryu summons another dragon to fan and disperse the smoke. "This is taking forever and I'm getting bored. I got an offer for you. How about we join forces and make our own four man cell team. Or are you looking for a fight to the death."
Zin smiles. "Again with the truce talk. I don't want to die here and I guess you don't either but I don't plan to submit anytime soon. I will fight you till you either surrrender, can't fight back, or are dead. That is just how I do things. Also I am going to need to kill that one too." Zin takes flight moving very fast with the vast amount of smoke he managed to hold on to. Zin then takes 20 smoke bombs in each hand. Zin stops behind the dragons head but a ways off. Zin crushes the smoke bombs and floods the smoke into the dragon's mouth and nose again suffocating it. "Now I think it is in your best interest to surrender ryu. If not I will take off the kid gloves and go seriously on you. I mean did you from the begining think someone at your level could be someone at mine. Things like that just don't happen." Zin laughed a little.
"I've been up late writing books, all about heroes and crooks." Yellowcard,...
Ryu raises his sword. "Overconfidence breeds carelessness. I only wanted to join forces with you for four reasons. 1) This fight is going no where. 2) We're just exhausting ourselves. 3) We would make a sweet team. 4) I kill only if its truly necessary. What can I say, I'm a nice guy. But if you want to keep going then I shall give you no quater." Ryu ignites his sword with Sacred Blue Fire by using fire manipulation. He charges at Zin.
Zin uses his immense speed to simply dodge the attack is if it was performed in slow motion. Zin again hovers above ryu on his cloud of smoke. "Maybe I am a little over confident but then again I have reasons to be. 1: I am back to full power and more thanks to your own doing. and 2: I have barely used any energy to begin with, you are the one getting exhausted. You have been constantly using vast amounts of chakra while all my moves barely take any. Face it you've lost. Now surrender before I have to finish this!" Zin took Pillar off his back and held it in his right hand. Zin also began to gather vast amounts of smoke into his left hand. The smoke swirling around Zin's body combined with the rest of this made him seem like an unbeatable god. "What will you do ryu??"
"I've been up late writing books, all about heroes and crooks." Yellowcard,...
WHAT KINDA @&%#$^%& IS THAT!!! GOD MODE!!! The maker of the Create-A-Naruto-Character thread said no god-like characters are to be made. I don't care if you used a simile to describe your character. You still broke the character making rule making your character invalid. I may sound like a complainer, but I'm a stickler for rules.

Humerus reunion: Doc returns Vietnamese vet's arm
HANOI, Vietnam (AP) — An American doctor has arrived in Vietnam carrying an unlikely piece of luggage: the bones of an arm he amputated in 1966.
Dr. Sam Axelrad flew into the Vietnamese capital, Hanoi, on Saturday from Houston. He was traveling through central Vietnam with his sons and two grandchildren Monday to meet the amputee, Nguyen Quang Hung, a former North Vietnamese soldier.
After Hung was shot in the arm by American troops, Axelrad, then a 27-year-old military doctor, amputated his infected right arm. His medic colleagues boiled off the flesh, reconstructed the arm bones and gave them to him, he says.
Axelrad, now a urologist, said he brought the skeletal keepsake back to the United States as a reminder of doing a good deed, but looks forward to returning it to Hung.
"It's just time for closure," Axelrad said Sunday at a hotel bar in Hanoi.
Hung was surprised, to say the least, to hear that he will be reunited with his lost limb.
"I can't believe that an American doctor took my infected arm, got rid of the flesh, dried it, took it home and kept it for more than 40 years," he said by telephone last week from his home. "I don't think it's the kind of keepsake that most people would want to own. But I look forward to seeing him again and getting my arm bones back."
After decades of silence, Axelrad learned that Hung was still alive after a Vietnamese journalist met Axelrad at a Hanoi hotel last July and wrote an article in a newspaper saying the American doctor wanted to return the bones.
Hung said his brother-in-law read the article and contacted the newspaper. The journalist, Tran Quynh Hoa, arranged the reunion, which was planned for Monday morning in Hung's hometown of An Khe, near the coastal city of Qui Nhon in central Vietnam.
Hung, 73, said he was shot during an ambush about 75 kilometers (46 miles) from An Khe in October 1966. After floating down a stream to escape a firefight and then sheltering in a rice warehouse for three days, he was evacuated by a U.S. helicopter to Axelrad's no-frills military hospital.
After the amputation, Hung spent eight months recovering and another six assisting American military doctors, he said. He spent the rest of the war offering private medical services in the village, and later served in local government for a decade before retiring on his rice farm.

WATHENA — Witnesses say a northeast Kansas man may have suffered a medical problem before driving his van into a Pizza Hut restaurant.
KQTV of St. Joseph, Mo., reports the crash happened Friday afternoon in Wathena.
The Kansas Highway Patrol says the 45-year-old Leavenworth man was driving east on U.S. 36 when his van drifted into the westbound lanes, hit a ditch and vaulted across the parking lot into the Pizza Hut.
No one inside was hurt, but a group of Doniphan County officers had just finished a lunch meeting and witnessed the accident. Another witness, Wathena firefighter Bob Ryser, says the driver was talking afterward but seemed confused and appeared to have suffered a medical problem.
The driver was taken to a hospital in St. Joseph, Mo.

Diego Simeone has hailed his star striker Radamel Falcao as crucial to Atletico Madrid, and praised his ability to consistently score goals.
Training has restarted for the second-placed La Liga club as the winter break approaches its end at the turn of 2013, and the Argentine head coach revealed that the 26-year-old has an insatiable desire to improve his game.
"Falcao is crucial [to Atletico] and he has progressed a lot," Simeone acknowledged in an interview with the newspaper The Spectator. "He never tires of creating goals. It's crazy.
"I had never seen such desire, because he has a hunger, a need for improving and becoming better. He knows that this is his strength, such is his forcefulness to succeed."
Simeone added that he considers Falcao "the best" attacker he has ever coached.
Atletico sit nine points behind league-leaders Barcelona having played 17 games, but seven points clear of local rivals Real Madrid despite losing their derby recently.

ST. PETERSBURG, Fla. - The No. 12 Bulldog coed sailing team opened the spring season of competition at the Mendelblatt Team Race this Saturday and Sunday with a big season-opening win. The team, which finished with a 6-1 record in the Championship Round, came away as the champions of the first collegiate team race of the year.
For the Bulldogs, who were competing for the first time at the Mendelblatt Team Race hosted by No. 15 South Florida and Eckerd in St. Petersburg, Fla., this was the first opportunity to get on the water after not racing since mid-November. This was also the third year in a row that the team has won the first team race event of the year. The past two years, the team has come away victorious at the John Jackson Team Race hosted by Navy and Georgetown.
The win at the John Jackson Team Race is an impressive accomplishment for the team. Skippering for the team were junior captain Thomas Barrows and freshmen Cameron Cullman and Joseph Morris. Crewing for the Bulldogs were seniors Grace Becton, Adriane Levin and sophomore Blair Belling. This was the first collegiate team race for both Cameron and Morris, which makes the win very impressive because team racing is very dependent on communication among team mates. Barrows last competed in a collegiate team race event at the New England Team Race Championships in May 2008.
More than anything else, the event gave the team a jump start to the season. The Bulldogs, like most of the teams in the northern part of the country, have not been able to get on the water to practice sailing. As such, the racing was an opportunity to get a little practice in before the weather warms up and the team is able to practice at their McNay Family Sailing Center facility.
Sailing started off on Saturday with light air conditions that had a bit of chop and current. The first round of competition was equally divided into two divisions of seven teams of competitors. The top four competitors from each of the two divisions then advanced to the Championship Round Robin. Wind was very shifty on Sunday, building to a high of ten knots. The Championship Round Robin, which was held on Saturday and Sunday afternoons, treated the team well, with the Bulldogs going 6-1, the best record of the event. The next best team, South Florida, had a 5-2 record followed by five teams with a 3-4 record.
The win is very impressive for the young Bulldog team, especially because it was the first time the team has ever raced together in competition. The team will next be in competition at the Charleston Spring Intersection hosted by the No. 10 College of Charleston on Saturday and Sunday.
Video footage by sailgroove.org of the race between Yale and Hobart is available here.
