About the destruction, the pains and the disappearance of Korczyn On reaching this section of the book about the destruction of the Jewish population of Korczyn, I am totally mesmerized. Many times I sat down to write the section but was unable to write a line. The blood begins to circulate much faster and the heart beat increases, the nerves are tense, I sit in stupor and think. What a terrible tragedy has occurred to our people. The Germans killed millions of helpless Jewish men, women and children and nothing happened. In Genesis, section Vayera, we are told that the people of Sodom were mean and sinful and that is the reason why G-d destroyed the city.
The various biblical descriptions of the evil deeds of Sodom can't even begin to compare with the deeds of the German murderers. The people of Sodom were practically saints in comparison to the Germans. Yet the latter were not destroyed or wiped off the face of the earth, on the contrary, they became richer and fatter in spite of all the cruelties they committed. The world continues its course, the Germans are accepted in society of men, Jewish merchants buy and Jewish customers purchase German products. Jewish survivors go on with life as though nothing happened. Religious Jews feel insulted when they don't get the right aliyah in the synagogue, the less religious organise parties and bar-mitzvahs with music and dancing. Everybody in his own way is deeply involved in acquiring more luxuries as though no great tragedy took place.
We mourn the destruction of the temple for three weeks but the destruction of hundreds of Jewish communities where millions of our fathers, mothers and children were killed is not mourned even for three hours by the Jewish world. Today, 25 years after the great tragedy, what is the purpose of retelling the tragedy and am I capable of telling the story in my humble way. Will I be able to transmit the pain, the degradation, the hunger and the various deaths suffered by the victims. Even if I had the literary skill of Job and was able to write a masterpiece, who would be interested, who would care to listen and what influence would such book have.
I would like to describe in the next chapters in a chronological sequence the life of the Jewish community of Korczyn from the day the war started to the day that the Germans erased the community.
The Polish government ordered the call up of all reserve units by means of posters, radio announcements and other available means. Total confusion seemed to be the order of the day. For the government was not prepared for such massive draft and had no ability to absorb all these men. The German attacked an ill-prepared country for war, namely Poland. By Monday, the fourth day of the war, it was obvious that the Germans are advancing very rapidly, government offices began packing in haste and leaving town, Polish retreating soldiers began to appear in the streets of Korczyn. They were totally disorganized and did not know where to go. Tuesday, columns of refugees, Jews and non-Jews, passed through the township-heading east. The Polish government ordered all men to head East. The merchants took the merchandise from their stores during the night and hid it. The panic was growing from minute to minute. The burning question was what to do, to stay or leave Korczyn. Where do you go with your family or can you stay and face the Germans.
The Germans will never kill anyone, they will take Jews to work said Korczyner Jewish who lived in Germany and supposedly knew the Germans. Germany ejected in 1936 most of the Jews of Korczyn that lived in Germany and they returned to their native hamlet. These people, the children of Haim Eichorn, the son of Moshe Lewitman and others remained in Korczyn. Very few Jews left Korczyn for Eastern Galicia and later for Russia. There were seven families: Mendel Rubin, Naphtali Dym, Avraham Lezer, Aisik Lezer, Yehezkel Pinter and Shlomo Horowitz. There were also a few individuals: Arie Dym, Mendel Rosenman, Zishe Grin, Mendel Weinstein, Yantsche Koreff, Leibish Atlas and Mendel Holoshitz. Only the last two individual people returned home following the war. We know nothing about the other single people.
Friday evening, the 8th of September 1939, we heard nearby heavy shelling or artillery exchanges. Saturday morning everything was silent. All the people were in the shelters. About 11oclock in the morning we heard some rifle shots and then deadly silence interrupted by the noise of a German motorcycle patrol. The latter crossed the city in great haste and headed for the village of Kombornia.
It was never established whether Preisner was ordered to do this job or he took the initiative on hearing the events in Krosno and decided to imitate the Germans. Nobody questioned him and there were no discussions. However, it seemed to give Preisner some satisfaction in denigrating the Jews since the cleaning job could have been done for five zlotys, about one dollar, or even less. Plenty of workers could have been found to do the job. On hearing the order, instinctively, the Jews took brooms and went to the market and swept it clean. Monday, the 18th of September, under the leadership of Tsheike the thief we marched to the village and were forced to remove the burned cattle from the stalls. The cattle were caught in the rifle fire that was heard in Korczyn some days ago. The job of removing partially burned carcasses of horses and cows was very unpleasant and the air was stifling.. The work was terrible and filthy but less denigrating than sweeping the market. Furthermore, it was supposed to prevent diseases. The work was also removed from the sight of onlookers for no one went to the village to see them work. The population of the farms had scattered, thus there were no spectators apart from Tsheike the thief.
Jews organized many small prayer places in private homes. Amongst them was: Shaul Frei, Eliezar Rubin who moved into the apartment of his brother, Mendel, who fled to East Galicia, Eliezar Raab and Nachman Leibush Reich. Most of the prayer places accommodated neighbors who would arrive surreptitiously to the prayers. Guards were posted to sound the alarm in case Germans approached the place. There was fear that the Germans may accuse the people of meeting illegally and harsh consequences would follow. At the first sound of alarm, the congregants could slip into their homes and disappear. The Germans did arrive with trucks to the beth hamidrash and caught whoever did not manage to escape. They tossed them aboard trucks and took them to work. The families of the arrested waited in anxiety all day until they were returned late that night.
In December some units arrived for rest and remained until May 1940. These units erected many barracks in a large area known as the priest field, it stretched from the school to the Mangl or to the Michael Kirschner house. The Jews did sawing wood and unloading coal and all dirty work such as bringing water, peeling potatoes. The Jews were not paid but received a steady stream of beatings. With time the beatings stopped but the German supervisors insisted that all their workers must show daily for work even if the weather did not permit such activity. Even if a German supervisor granted a day off, another would soon appear and insist that they must show up for work and threatened and cajoled the poor Jews to go to work. The behavior of the German supervisors can only be described as beastly. The work that the Jews in Korczyn did for the German army saved them from being sent elsewhere to do similar work. At least they came home, ate with the family and slept at home. The Nazi chief supervisor for building the barracks appealed to the military area commander not to sent Jews from Korczyn to other areas since they were needed in town. Jews from Krosno were sent to other places like Fristik to work.
The Germans continued to search but found nothing and concluded that there were no hidden merchandise. Preisner insisted that all merchandise should be made available to the local population since it had no clothing. The author of these lines addressed himself to Preisner and asked him whether the local population was already naked after two months of war. Was it not a fact that the Jewish population lacked bread, which was in abundance amongst the farms yet, you are not worried about the hungry Jews but rather about the so-called naked Polish farmers. He did not answer. The Germans did not understand the exchange since it was in Polish.
The Germans plundered the Jewish homes without the slightest guilt feeling. Worse than the Russian Cossacks who knew that they were doing bad things. The Germans did it with greater precision, thoroughness and punctuality than the Cossack ever dreamt of doing. The German stole whatever pleased him, be it a coat, a suit or even bed covers. The Russian Cossack knew that he was committing a crime and faced the danger of being spotted by an officer who could reprimand him. The German knew that this was not the case.
Most of the German soldiers that were stationed in Korczyn from December to May 1940 were from Western Silesia and some understood a bit of Polish and some even spoke the language. They mingled with the local population and soon found out where the Jewish merchants lived and where they could locate some of the hidden merchandise. They would enter a store and find it empty. They would then measure the inside walls as opposed to the outside walls or the attics as opposed to the roofs. They would break into rooms or walls under the slightest pretext. Once they found a hidden warehouse, they would be encouraged to continue their search.
When the soldiers found merchandise, they stole everything they could carry and then notified the local commander who would sent a truck to pick up the remains. The truck would transport the goods to Germany and the soldiers would carry the loot home on leave. Presently, the Germans are asking the Jewish survivors to provide them with the license numbers of the trucks that took their merchandise.
Lea Blank spent almost two weeks in the prison, until her young daughters, Miriam and Rivka Blank assembled a few thousand zlotys which was given to a Krosno person with good connections. They worked and she was freed and returned home to Korczyn. Meanwhile, Aron and Meir Blank escaped from the city crossed illegally the border to the Russian side. Aron Blank did not survive the war , he died in Russia but his son Meir survived the war. The Germans killed lea Blank and her daughters Miriam and Rivkah in August 1942, 29 days in Av, Tashab.
The Judenrat consisted of Oscar Rubin, a grandson of of Benyamin Rubin. Oscar was born in Germany. He was elected to be the head the Judenrat. His assistant was Yehezkel Lewitman who lived many years in Germany. The other members of the council were Mendel Halpern,, the son of Hertz, Eli Grin, Ber Erreich, Shlomo Horowitz, Naphtali Infeld and Yossef Weber. Most people thought that Oscar Rubin and Yehezkel Lewitman would help the community due their knowledge of the German language. They were soon proven dead wrong. The difference between the Judenrat and the kehilla leadership prior to the war was simple. The kehilla leaders worked for the interests of the Jewish community while the Judenrat had to work for the Germans.
The Judenrat collected monthly taxes from the Jewish population in order to meet the financial obligations of the council. Whoever did not pay on time his assessment, the Judenrat would send a Jewish policemen to collect an item of similar value to the amount owed. The item taken could have been a lamp, a blanket, a pillow or a suit. On occasion, the head of the Judenrat wrote out a complaint against someone for not paying his assessment as part of a sabotage scheme .The Germans did not need any further evidence to arrest the individual and throw him into the Krosno prison.. He was usually freed by the efforts of Moshe Kleiner, assistant Judenrat head of Krosno.. When the people in question went to thank Moshe Kleiner, he made the following blessing, blessed be the liberator of prisoners and the resurrected to life. Why the latter part of the blessing, Kleiner stated that the Germans would frequently shoot prisoners in order to make room for more detainees.
The head and the assistant head of the Judenrat exclusively ran the Judenrat. Oscar Rubin received a weekly salary and Yehezkel Lewitman ran the office. The other members of the council had no say or responsibilities. They joined the council in the hope that they will avoid the labor draft. Some of them later regretted being members of the council but it was too late. Perhaps some would have survived the war had they not been members of the council, for their need ended with the destruction of the Jewish community of Korczyn. The Judenrat employed two Jewish policemen: Mendel Halpern, the son of Yona, and Naphtali Kirschner, the son of Moshe. The latter was called the lord. We have to praise his behavior that was outstanding. He would always pre-warn the Jewish inhabitants of German or Polish police actions aimed at them. Thus, they could take some preventive measures. The other policeman used his position for his own interest and income. Naphtali Kirschner escaped, hid, survived the war and came to Israel. Mendel Halpern remained policeman to the last minute and perished with the community.
In the streets of Korczyn were many German soldiers who returned victorious from the battlefield. They were full of joy and drank with their victory over Poland. Their hatred to the Jews was beyond description, especially to a Jew that had a beard and peyot. Such a Jew took his life in his hand if he stepped out of his house. When the Germans spotted him, they chased him and ordered him to stand still. The poor Jew did not know whether he would be shot or merely photographed. Regardless of the final action, we can imagine the thoughts that run through the mind of the poor Jew. Fear also extended to the home, the Germans plundered Jewish homes. Fear became a daily reality.
To avoid humiliations, jeers and nasty remarks, the rabbi of Korczyn, Avraham Itzhak Kanner nicknamed Peitash wrapped a kerchief around the beard and his peyot in order to hide them. When a German would ask why the kerchief, the wife of the rabbi would state that the rabbi has dental problems. He looked comical and this was enough to attract German attention and to ridicule him. The rabbi had a father in law in Slovakia, a place called Welka Berezna. He decided to escape to his family in Slovakia where it was rumored that the Germans behaved a bit better than in Poland. The rabbi and his family rented a coach and secretly left Korczyn. They arrived in Slovakia just in time when the Slovakian Jews were being deported to Poland, about 1940. The rabbi and his family shared the lot of the Slovakian Jews. He wound up in the city of Lublin, Poland.
The rabbi suffered pain and hunger in Lublin. He appealed by letter, still permissible at the time, to the Jewish community of Korczyn. The letters were heart braking and asked for help to get him out of Lublin. But the Jewish community could not help him since nobody had contacts with Lublin nor did anybody have ideas how to organise such rescue. Brief, he could not hope for assistance except to escape by his own means. Apparently he could not escape and disappeared. We do not know the date of his death but it is a certainty that he disappeared a year before the destruction of the Jewish community of Korczyn, may his saintly soul be blessed.
Moshe Leichtog survived the action and was sent to Krosno to work. We worked together in the same group. We were busy demolishing a wall that was situated along the road leading to Korczyn, facing the house of Itsche David Weisner.
We were supposed to build a road through the garden of the church of the order of the Capuchins. This road would link directly Korczyn to the road leading to Rymanow without the need to circle the church grounds. The monks insisted we stop working. An order was issued to us to sit on the ground and await a decision. We sat on the ground of the church and awaited the order. This was exactly a week after the Jews of Korczyn were deported. As we sat on the ground, Yehezkel Shtein asked Moshe Leichtog to tell a story about a Jewish saint. He started to tell story after atory about Jewish saints and the miracles they performed. I was astounded to hear the stories, how could a person that lost everybody, tell the stories as though nothing happened. I was hopeless, bitter, lonely and amazed at the ability of Moshe Leichtog to overcome all the tragedies and tell stories about Jewish saints. I could understand some people like Yehezkel Shtein who still had his wife and children listening to these tales. But how could Moshe Leichtog ignore all reality and transport himself to another period of time. Yet he did it. Was this heroism or spiritual heroism, perhaps someone could explain it to me. I don't understand it. Yaacov Itzhak Fessel, a native of Korczyn, that lives today in Stockholm, Sweden states that with the liquidation of the ghetto of Krosno, Moshe Leichtog was sent to the ghetto of Rzeszow, Reishe in Yiddish. Nobody knows the whereabouts of Moshe Leichtog or his date of death. May this be his eternal memorial.
In Korczyn, the Christian families lived outside the city and near their fields. This is where they had their homes and barns. They were not interested in places away from their cowsheds or farms. But there were exceptions even in Korczyn. Tscheike thief's son went to Lea Blank and told her that he wanted the front of her house. Lea Blank was familiar with the situation and heard of similar instances in Krosno. She consented to his request and he permitted her to stay with her daughters in the back of the house. Jewish refugees from other cities occupied the second house of the family Blank.
Since May 1940, there were no German soldier in town. In comparison with other big cities and even small cities, life in Korczyn was relatively quiet. Suddenly, German soldiers appeared in May of 1941 but they did not stop in town, they marched in the direction of Kombornia and East. They did not march four abreast on the road but rather single file, one behind the other, similar to a bunch of geese. Small groups of 20-25 soldiers, their heads covered with grass or twigs. They did not carry weapons. Some trucks covered with green branches followed them. This process continued for days. The Jews in Korczyn glanced through the cracks in the windows and saw this funny process but nobody could explain what was taking place. Some tried to explain that the German was teaching their soldiers how to camouflage their movements from the view of planes. But Poland was destroyed, France was defeated and Europe was under German control. Against what enemy was Germany preparing to fight. That an imminent attack against Russia will be launched, nobody expected. Only in June of 1941, following thew attack on Russia, did we understand the reason for the funny marching of soldiers.
Some predicted that Russia would defeat Germany and preclude it from carrying out the harmful policies against the Jews. There were others that said that things might get worse. The evil one, Hitler, stated publicly in January of 1942, those that laughed stopped laughing: I will not rest until the last Jew disappears in Europe. The entire free world heard this on the radio or read it in the papers, if we read it in isolated Korczyn in the Krakower newspaper.
Itsche Rosshendler and Bunem Margolies did not wait for the visitors. The former decided to hand over the store to the son of the cook that was employed by the lord Szepticki. In this manner, did the Rosshendler family remain in their apartment and enjoyed some share in the profit of the store. For the new owner gave a portion of the profits to Itsche Rossenhendler. Bunem Margolies worked out a similar arrangement with Solecki.
The Judenrat sent officials to everybody to warn them to surrender all furs or furry items within the day. The Jews responded and carried every item, even an old worn out shtreimel to the office of the Judenrat where the Germans received the merchandise. Two days later, the Germans started to search the homes. They went from door to door, they checked every hiding place but found nothing. Our town survived the event without casualties but endured plenty of anxiety. .
The Polish auxiliary police escorted all of these Jews to the police headquarters. From here, they were taken one at a time to the field of the priest where the Gastapo shot them. The local Polish population looked at our misfortune, they saw how we were led to the slaughter. There would have been some consolation if the sky was cloudy or dark but no, it was a nice and clear day. The sun was shining and witnessing human brutality, the killing of helpless Jews.

I was motoring down the freeway through California's high desert when, from the corner of my eye, I glimpsed a tiny cross in the wasteland, attached to a steeple.
The church looked like a matchbox carelessly discarded in some kid's sandpile.
I was motoring down the freeway through California's high desert when, from the corner of my eye, I glimpsed a tiny cross in the wasteland. The cross was attached to a steeple, which was attached to small white church. There was nothing else around for miles. From a distance, the church looked like a matchbox carelessly discarded in some kid's sandpile. I took the next exit and doubled back to have a second look. It was a Baptist church, white with pink trim. The insides had been hollowed out and turned into storage space. It was on private property now, with a wire fence and a little notice about dogs. Nobody was around. So I stood and marveled at it for a while. Had it been one of those "Field of Dreams" dreams? You know, "Build it and they will come?" If so, apparently not many folks showed up. Forcing people to search for God is always an iffy proposition. It's not that they can't find him. They seldom bother to even look. I wondered how many Sunday sermons the minister had preached to just his family - or maybe just the spiders and flies? Did he preach as hard for one person as he did for 50? As I stood there, I made up my own little mythology about the place. The preacher hadn't given up, or even given out. He'd died with his boots on, issuing altar calls and waving Bible ribbons about the room. He died as he had lived - faithfully looking for lost souls in the desert. And when he died, no one had the heart to tear down his tiny church. They left it alone. I thought of a poem by W.S. Merwin, a poem that compares a church house to a well that plunges deep into the ground. Churches may indeed reach up, but they also reach down, looking to tap into the cool, hidden springs beneath the sand. A well in the desert is a wondrous thing. A well of Living Water in the desert - like that Baptist church - was even more so. Perhaps that's why it had been left standing. You don't cap a well when people are dying of thirst - even when it runs dry. You let it be, hoping some silent shifting of things will one day send water bubbling back to the surface. Until that day, I assumed that little church would be left standing - waiting for another pastor to come along with a vision of bringing refreshment and fresh life to a withered land.%3Cimg%20src%3D%22http%3A//beacon.deseretconnect.com/beacon.gif%3Fcid%3D75906%26pid%3D46%22%20/%3E

Bearing mounting and dismounting
At some point, the bearing will reach the end of its service life and will have to be replaced. Although the bearing may not be used again, it is extremely important to dismount it correctly so that the service life of the replacement bearing is not compromised. Firstly, the use of proper dismounting methods tools will help prevent damage to other machine components, such as the shaft and housing, which are often re–used. Secondly, incorrect dismounting techniques can be hazardous to the operator.

This morning I lost .4 lbs. for the week. And I'll take it. It's better than a gain. I weighed in at 209.3.
And now I embark on my new adventure! Counting calories. I'm not just counting calories, but I will be using the skills and knowledge that I picked up over these last few years on Weight Watchers and apply that. Hopefully I can become healthier and reach my goal.
I decided to change my weight loss goal to losing 1.5 lbs. per week. Mostly because it said I will reach my goal by December 31, 2012. Now I know that probably won't happen knowing my slow weight loss, but that would make me SO happy. So I'm going to try. This plan allows me 1,702 calories per day.
For breakfast, I ate Egg Beaters with Laughing Cow cheese and turkey, oatmeal with strawberries and a glass of skim milk.
Instead of listing calories for each meal, I will list the totals at the end of the day.
I wanted to make sure I got a workout in first thing this morning because I wouldn't have any more free time throughout the day for it. I biked 9.3 miles in 40 minutes and burned 230 calories.
While working, I sipped on coffee with Almond Joy creamer.
On my first break, I went outside of my normal snack food comfort zone and ate a whole 1 oz. serving of almonds! I know, right? No eating 1/2 serving to save points. And at 160 calories, it seemed like a good snack.
For lunch, I ate baked blue hake (try saying that 10 times fast) with black beans and a side salad with lettuce, tomato, feta and FF French dressing.
A very healthy lunch! I finished it up with FF/SF chocolate pudding.
On my break, I tried out a product I was sent to review. Adora calcium supplements. This one is dark chocolate.
Stay tuned for a review of these!
I also ate a Weight Watchers smoked string cheese.
It was a really windy day today! So windy that it blew one of our storm windows out in the porch and made this sound like a power saw! Needless to say, I was really scared to walk out into the porch and find out what was making that noise!
Since it sounded so cold outside, I thought another cup of coffee with creamer sounded perfect.
I try to limit myself to coffee once a day, but some days just require more!
Hubby had supper ready when I got off of work. He made his famous creamed beef over toast along with green beans.
So good! And even better since I don't have to cook!
I finished it up with a serving of Thin Mints.
So that's my first day on my new tracking system.
So how did I do?
Daily calorie budget
Food calories consumed
Exercise calories burned
Net calories so far today
I can eat 182 more calories today.
Nutrient wise:
Fat: 26.4%, Carbs: 35.2%, Protein: 38.4%
I am happy with those numbers!
My sodium was still pretty high at 2,487.5 mg. But one thing at a time here.
I am slightly confused by the tracking system because it factors in exercise calories that you can eat if you want. Even if I eat them, I should still lose 1.5 lbs. per week, according to this. But obviously NOT eating them would help too. I'm really not sure if I should eat them or not? Today I did eat a few.
If I want a snack tonight, I'm going to try to stick with some grapes or something low calorie and keep it within the 182 calories that I have left. That's perfectly attainable!

McInnis to make first public appearance since plagiarism reports surfaced
ALAMOSA — Republican gubernatorial candidate Scott McInnis is scheduled to speak to the Colorado Farm Bureau at 11:30 this morning — his first public event since he was embroiled in a plagiarism scandal last week.
His primary opponent Dan Maes is also speaking to the bureau at 10 a.m.
The McInnis campaign said in an e-mail Sunday that the former congressman would address major issues "facing the Colorado agriculture community."
It's expected to be a friendly crowd. While in Congress, McInnis won awards from the American Farm Bureau federation, and during his gubernatorial campaign he has promised to eliminate the tax increase on agricultural products, like vaccines and pesticides.
Additionally, the Greeley Tribune reported last year that McInnis was the first gubernatorial candidate to endorse the Northern Integrated Supply Project, which creates new reservoirs near Fort Collins and another near Ault. The farm bureau supports the project.
McInnis sent an e-mail to supporters last night saying he was "going full speed ahead on the campaign trail" and noted he had a successful fundraising event in Silt on Saturday where more than 300 people attended. He also said he would continue to emphasize his message of "cutting spending, repealing job-killing taxes and adopting business-friendly policies."
He has been at the center of controversy since last Monday, when The Denver Post first reported that articles he submitted to the foundation as original works included passages that were similar to or copied directly from a 1984 essay by now-Colorado Supreme Court Justice Gregory Hobbs.
In the ensuing days, several Republicans joined editorial boards from newspapers in Denver, Grand Junction and Fort Collins in urging McInnis to get out of the race.
McInnis failed to appear at two public events last week — a rally in support of the NISP project on Thursday and an Arapahoe County Republicans Lincoln Day Dinner featuring former Minn. Gov. Tim Pawlenty on Friday. (He spoke on a panel Friday at the Republican Governor's Association meeting and at the campaign fundraiser in Silt over the weekend, as the Grand Junction Sentinel reported).
On Friday, McInnis said he will "make full payment arrangements" with the Hasan Family Foundation after it demanded he return the $300,000 paid him for a 2005-06 fellowship that included articles that turned out to be plagiarized.
Later in the day, three staffers — policy director Mac Zimmerman, political director Dustin Zvonek and regional director T.Q. Houlton — quit the campaign.

WASHINGTON, D.C. – With her 10 points this afternoon, senior guard Rebecca Grimes (Fairfax, Va.) became the fourth player in Kings Point women's basketball history to score 1,000 for her career as the U.S. Merchant Marine Academy dropped a Landmark Conference contest with Catholic University on Saturday afternoon, 66-49 at the DuFour Center in Washington, D.C.
The Cardinals (16-8, 8-5 Landmark) opened up the game with a 7-0 run. That tempo was sustained by Catholic throughout the whole first half as the hosts recorded a couple of strong runs to give themselves a 32-18 lead at halftime.
For USMMA, sophomore guard Tamara Kaileh (Kings Park, N.Y.) netted a game-high 17 points, while senior forward Janay Weathers (Fredericksburg, Va.) brought down 13 rebounds. Grimes' 10 points today now gives her 1,008 career points heading into the season's final two contests.
For Catholic, sophomore guard Jill Woerner (Providence, R.I.) scored 16 points, while sophomore guard Jenny McGann (York, Pa.) had 14 and junior guard Holly Janicki (St. Petersburg, Fla.) added 13. On the boards, sophomore forward Katarina Owunna (Pittsburgh, Pa.) recorded a team-high 12 rebounds.

As we emerge from turbulent economic times, the desire to return to sustained portfolio growth has been a clear trend in mature credit markets.
Prior to the economic downturn, credit unions and other financial institutions met this objective with aggressive marketing offers to attract new members and customers through loan acquisitions.
Today, however, they're increasingly looking to deepen their relationships with existing customers in order to better serve them.
By identifying the needs of current customers and matching them to individual credit risk and affordability, effective cross-sell strategies can help lenders achieve portfolio growth while simultaneously increasing customer satisfaction and promoting loyalty.
This, in turn, can lead to deeper and more valuable customer relationships.
The need to optimize customer touch points and provide the best possible customer experience is paramount to future performance, as measured by market share, customer satisfaction, and long-term profitability.
For example, the more of your products a customer uses, the less likely this person is to leave you for a competitor. Also, by responding rapidly to changing customer credit needs, you can build trust, increase wallet share, and profitably grow your loan portfolios.
The challenges
Although the benefits to enhancing existing relationships are clear, implementing a successful cross-sell strategy involves several challenges:
In addition to these issues, few financial institutions have lending strategies that differentiate between new and current customers. Most of the time, new credit requests are processed identically for both.
The problem with this approach: If fails to capture and use the power of existing customer data, leading to suboptimal decisions.
Cross-selling essentials
There are several components to successful cross-selling:
1. Evaluate credit risk. The ability to accurately predict a consumer's default risk is paramount. The most successful strategies balance the predictive power of data for existing customers with data from third parties (credit reporting agencies) to feed predictive models.
These models rely on an appropriate definition of a customer. At first glance, this may appear simple. But the definition of a customer becomes more complex as you consider joint or multiple account holders or customers with both a consumer and a small-business relationship.
Effective strategies bring these data sources together in an optimal manner to feed predictive models of credit default risk.
2. Calculate customer affordability. The capacity to absorb increased credit commitments affordably is both a key component of the solution and a legal requirement. Approaches in this area have developed significantly in recent years.
Successful strategies incorporate a mechanism for capturing consumer income and deriving their disposable income from this information. Disposable income incorporates expected monthly expenditures (bills, food, tuition rent, insurance, gas) with the customers' known credit commitments (mortgage, cards, car loans, credit lines) to derive disposable income.
3. Offer the right products. By combining the evaluation of credit risk with the calculation of affordability, customer-level credit limits can be used to set maximum thresholds for each customer holistically. These customer limits can be apportioned among different product families (revolving credit, fixed-term loans).
The comparison of maximum customer limits with existing commitments allows residual lending limits to be calculated, forming the basis of the cross-sell offer.
4. Effective operational deployment. The decision elements used to create the c-sell offer are positioned in a user interface for branch managers of agents. This mechanism permits the branch manager to identify a credit amount for which the existing customer has been preauthorized.
As such, credit requests for new customers can be fast-tracked, resulting in improved servicing times and enhanced customer experience.
As with any effective strategy, the ability to deploy in a test-and-learn environment is key to successful implementations.
By continually testing new approaches for the components of the solution and monitoring their success, organizations can continually improve and learn, drive portfolio growth, and enhance the customer experience, leading to greater loyalty and, ultimately, greater profitability.

EVERETT, Wash. – The story of "Barefoot Bandit" Colton Harris-Moore is told in a documentary made by Canadian independent filmmakers Adam and Andrew Gray.
The brothers from Belleville, Ontario, told The Daily Herald they became attracted to the story while researching a script on the 19th Century bandit Billy the Kidd.
Their feature-length documentary "Fly Colt Fly: Legend of the Barefoot Bandit," premiered earlier this month at the Toronto film festival. It blends interviews with animation to tell a story that is as much about myth as fact.
"We didn't want to come across as condoning a criminal, but we didn't want to preach about it either," Andrew Gray said.
Harris-Moore began breaking into homes and cabins on Puget Sound's Camano Island as a teenager. Burglaries continued after he escaped from juvenile detention in 2007. They included stealing boats and planes in a cross-country crime spree and ended with his arrest in 2010 in the Bahamas. Now 22, he's serving a seven-year prison sentence.
The directors said their film is about how public fascination with Harris-Moore made him attempt to become the folk hero his fans wanted him to be and how his growing fame became his downfall, the Herald of Everett reported Monday (http://bit.ly/1hKJEH9 ).
The film melds documentary interviews with graphic novel-style animation action scenes.
"What was really important to us was to tell the tale that was told through the media, which was the legend of the bandit, as opposed to what happened. Over the course of two years and all of the false information that would come out on the Internet, it was such a complicated story and the truth would often get lost," Andrew Gray said. "Everyone sort of used their imagination."
The Grays' film doesn't include interviews from Harris-Moore. That wasn't something they realistically expected. Harris-Moore signed a $1.3 million deal with 20th Century Fox with the money earmarked toward restitution to his victims.

Back To Heroes
Carroll Resweber had a short but spectacular career on the AMA Grand National circuit in the 1950s and '60s. Resweber won a remarkable four AMA Grand National championships in a row from 1958 to 1961, riding Harley-Davidsons. That record stood until 1998 when Scott Parker earned his fifth consecutive Grand National title. Resweber won 19 AMA nationals in a span of six seasons on a variety of circuits, including road races, short-tracks, half-miles, and miles. If Resweber's racing career had not been cut short by a racing accident during the prime of his career in 1962, he undoubtedly would have continued adding to his illustrious record.
Born in Port Arthur, Texas, on January 6, 1936, Resweber grew up with a love of two-wheelers, first bicycles, then a Cushman scooter. By the time he was 16, he owned a Harley-Davidson 80 cubic inch "Knucklehead" and was burning up the streets around his hometown. When he turned 17, Resweber began racing on dirt tracks in Houston and Fort Worth. One of Resweber's fondest memories as an aspiring racer was watching national champ Joe Leonard race in Houston in 1953. Resweber and Leonard would later become arch rivals on the track.
"Joe scared the daylights out of me the first time I saw him race," recalled Resweber. "I was standing on the outside of turn one watching my first race and Joe ran it up wide and I took off running like the blazes. I never thought he'd make that turn. He really impressed me. He was the man to beat."
Resweber followed in the footsteps of two other riders from his area, Tommy Byars and Everett Brashear. Resweber considered Byars and Brashear his teachers in the racing game. Saying that he learned from the best, Resweber is quick to point out the inspiration his fellow Texans provided.
In 1955, Resweber moved his family to Milwaukee to race for engine builder Ralph Berndt and to be close to the abundant racing in the Midwest. The next year Resweber earned his first AMA national finish by taking fifth at the Springfield Mile in Illinois. On June 16, 1957, Resweber earned his first AMA Grand National victory at the Charity Newsies race held on the half-mile Ohio State Fairgrounds dirt oval. He proved that this win was no fluke when he earned another victory on the half-mile in St. Paul, Minnesota, two months later.
Resweber started the 1958 season with a fourth-place finish in the Daytona 200. That would prove to be Resweber's best finish in the March classic. It was ironic that despite his incredible racing record, Resweber went on to be somewhat known for his hard luck at Daytona, even though he loved the race. That summer, Resweber had an impressive string of four straight Grand National podium finishes, including wins at the Du Quoin, Illinois, Mile and another victory in St. Paul. That string of successful races was enough to give Resweber his first AMA national championship, winning the title by just one point over 1957 champ Joe Leonard.
En route to his second championship in 1959, Resweber added first-place trophies from the Sacramento, California, and Springfield to his mantle in addition to winning the St. Paul AMA Grand National for the third year in a row.
Resweber again edged out his friend and rival Joe Leonard for the AMA national championship in 1960. That year, Resweber won four nationals on his way to earning his third title.
The 1961 campaign was the pinnacle of Resweber's racing career. A marvel of consistency, he earned five national wins, including a victory at Watkins Glen, New York, his first on a road-race course. Resweber dominated that year and easily won his fourth AMA Grand National Championship, finishing with 62 championship points, compared to 39 points held by second-place Leonard.
In 1962, Resweber looked to be well on his way to winning his fifth straight title. He won on the road courses at Bossier City, Louisiana, and Watkins Glen, and on the Santa Fe short track in Hinsdale, Illinois. Leading the championship, Resweber's season and racing career came to an abrupt end on a dusty half-mile oval in Lincoln, Illinois. During a practice session, Resweber went out on the track in the second group of riders. Another group had gone before them and a rider had crashed, his bike down on the racing line. Due to the dust, Resweber never saw the fallen bike and hit it at high speed. He went down hard along with four other riders. Jack Gholson died from injuries suffered in the crash. Resweber and Dick Klamfoth were badly injured. Resweber spent two years recuperating from the crash and was never physically able to return to racing.
After his recovery, Resweber returned to work for Harley-Davidson, where he stayed until he retired in 1992. Resweber now lives in his home state of Texas and regularly attends vintage racing events. His son, Ricky, now in his 40s, races motocross for fun. Resweber will forever be remembered for his short but brilliant racing career and his dedication to the sport.

Just talked to my mom for something approaching four and a half hours. The relationship we have is complicated – bound to be, considering she's bipolar with occasional psychotic breaks, and I've got one hell of a temper. And we've both occasionally put each other through hell. Neither one of us is a perfect person.
And you know what? We don't have to be.
She gave me the kind of childhood most kids can only dream about. And even when she's lost her mind, she's always been there for me. I hope, after this conversation, that she understands that. I've never once had to wonder if my mother loved me. Wondered how she could love me a few times, mind, but never doubted she did. She's been my anchor. If everyone else in the world stopped loving me, she still would. That can't be minimized.
And I love her. Finally got a chance to really tell her how grateful I am to her for everything, how much I respect and appreciate her, admire her, and am constantly amazed by her.
We've had our rough patches. But so does everyone. Every family has its problems, every life has its regrets. There are things we wish had never happened, but like I told her: "We got lemons. Honey, grab some sugar, cuz we're gonna have ourselves some lemonade."
And she laughed. I don't know if she really understands it yet or not, but she and my dad are the ones who taught me what to do with the inevitable lemons. They're the ones who prepared me to handle just about anything life throws my way. Hell, maybe anything, although we can never know that until it happens.
My mother did the lion's share of the raising, which both me and my dad are profoundly grateful for. So that's why today's mother's day: got a chance to have one of those long, gorgeous, incredible conversations that gets to the heart of everything and leaves both of you glowing.
I love my mom. I'm proud of my mom. And that's something I want the world to know. When you look at me, you're looking at my parents, too: all their hard work and dedication and devotion as they attempted to shape a borderline psychopath (which, let's face facts, all small children are) into a decent human being.
Hope I'll always do them justice.

NEW LONDON, Conn.--Senior Derek Petty threw seven scoreless innings and classmate Eric Gerken was 4 for 5 to lead the offense as fifth-seeded Coast Guard beat fourth-seeded Husson 3-1 in the first round of the ECAC Division III New England Baseball tournament in a game played at the Coast Guard Academy because Husson's field was unavailable due to graduation.
The Bears (23-16) advance to the semifinals for the second time in three years and will take on top-seeded Suffolk on Saturday at noon at MIT. The championship game will be held at MIT on Sunday at noon.
Petty (6-3) allowed just five singles, walked a pair and struck out five to pick up the win, the 14th of his career.
Coast Guard manufactured single runs in both the second and third innings. In the second, senior Tyler Babkiewich led off with a single, stole second and advanced to third on a throwing error by the catcher. He scored on a ground out by senior Mike Massaro for a 1-0 lead.
In the third inning, senior Joe Petry and Gerken led off with back-to-back singles and Petry later scored on a ground out by freshman Mark Behne to give the Bears a 2-0 lead.
The game stayed that way until the eighth when Gerken led off with a double in the left field gap and scored on an RBI single by senior Nolan Gallagher to take a 3-0 lead.
Husson got its run in the bottom of the eighth of Coast Guard reliever Curt Barrett when juniors Cody McInnis and Pat Thiboudeau started the inning with back-to-back singles, McInnis, who earlier took third on a wild pitch, scored on a sacrifice fly by junior Dylan Foster, but Barrett got a ground ball double play to end the inning.
Senior Tyler Vieira came on to get the final three out and record his eighth save of the season, allowing a pair of singles and striking out two.
Senior Brandon Reilly (5-4) pitched eight solid innings for Husson scattering nine hits and allowing a pair of earned runs while walking one and striking out three in the final game of his career.
Babkiewich and Petry each had two hits in the win for Coast Guard while Thibobdeau and freshman J.T. Whitten each had three hits to lead Husson while McInnis had two hits in the loss.
Husson, which won the North Atlantic Conference (NAC) tournament championship on Monday, finishes the season 26-18.
The Coast Guard senior class registered its 70th career win, just one shy of the four-year school record of 71 set from 2000-2003.

Soccer Fan Amazingly Hits Player With Paper Airplane From Stands [VIDEO]
Talk about fans getting involved in the game.
A fan at an English soccer match threw a paper airplane that somehow managed to find its way onto the field and hit one of the players.
For England's sake, they'd better hope their team has this kind of aim when looking for the back of the net once the World Cup kicks off.

Candid moment with George from a few years ago
At this point, would give Big George a hug and ask Lance when he was going to man up. 3 AM Taipei time and awoke to a disturbance in the force after a long day riding in Taiwan. Heard new email chimes, checked, and followed a link to George's statement admitting he doped. Then his affidavit.
In his own words
Big George did the right thing today. His statements to USADA are why Lance quit the sport and didn't fight the charges. George is the star witness with the smoking gun or in this case, a syringe.
And yes it matters because Lance is a liar who can't own the past, admit it like a man, and help heal the sport that made him wealthy. We also learn from George that Tyler and Landis aren't crazy, bitter ex-employees. Lance's PR can't spin George the same way or paint him with the same crazy brush.
Blogging the sport and industry has given me access to insiders that told me this statement and more like it were coming. That Lance doped, the industry knew it, and either denied or waited for the day it all came out. Expect soul searching on the campuses of Nike, Trek, Oakley and others that participated in the greatest marketing story ever sold. Lance's heroics are a story more elaborate and contrived than Valentines day or that diamonds are rare and valuable.
The story blew up today because the USADA released their dossier on the USPS Cycling Team investigation. Expect more statements to follow from Levi, et al.
Here in Taichung, at the center of the bicycling universe, I've got more riding to do and companies to meet. Yesterday was a National Holiday and this country's past time is riding on bike paths. We rode with them.
Note: Bike Hugger is in business with Hincapie Sports. They make gear for us that we retail. I'm more committed to continuing that relationship now that the truth is coming out.…

31 HORROR STORIES -- "The Clock" (1928)@ 12:00 PM
I'm going to start this list of 31 with the super-short "The Clock". It's rendered in the style of a dopey, well-meaning schoolgirl -- a sort of turn-of-the-century Jessica Simpson -- writing a letter to her aunt in Italy. Of course, this is a woman remembering something that happened -- or didn't happen -- twenty years ago. Thus, we're dealing with one of those sad people who realized life was easiest when they were young and stupid, and so decided to stay that way.
The first paragraph suggests that the aunt's letter -- which the girl is now responding to -- contained a mention of some sort of supernatural occurence. It's clear, however, that the "supernatural activity" was some old houseguest sleepwalking, and bumping into furniture.
So, of course, Little Miss Dopey has to counter with her OWN strange tale. "...you will laugh if this letter reaches you by morning post..." But once you're finished with the brief 12 paragraphs of this creepy little number, you won't be laughing. At all.
W.F. Harvey -- famous for writing "The Beast With Five Fingers" -- was a master at producing spook tales told by narrators who were too dumb to realize the darkness they'd brushed against. This, of course, forces you to fill in WAY more details than are actually there. Or are they, and we're breathing a sigh of relief that we can see them better than our protagonists? Although, if we heard what Little Miss Dopey hears in the hallway of the abandoned house she's investigating, would we do anything different than what she does? Sometimes, stupidity if the only shield from the spectral.
