As a Larimer County resident for the last 34 years, Estes Park has held a special place in my life and the lives of my family members. My wife, Jodi, and I raised our two children down the hill in Loveland, and Estes Park was a frequent destination for us on the weekends and holidays. Jodi's parents are long-time Estes Park residents, and our kids both enjoyed many summers working at Poppy's Pizza and Grill in downtown Estes.
I also witnessed first-hand the caring power of the greater Estes Valley community in September of last year as we helped my in-laws evacuate from their home near Fish Creek after the floods, and Jodi and I joined the volunteer clearinghouse to help with other ongoing clean-up and recovery from that devastating disaster.
These personal moments, combined with my professional passion to make a difference in people's lives, are why I'm so excited that my role with United Way of Larimer County will enable me to work more closely with the Estes Park community in the coming year.
Before I share more about my excitement, let me back up a bit. In the fall of 2012, I was offered early retirement after a 20-year project and program management career at Hewlett-Packard. After a brief job search, I realized what I really wanted was a job more connected to my community that allowed me to be part of something greater than myself. Volunteerism had always been an important priority in my life, and I was looking for an opportunity to take that to the next level. I was fortunate to find those benefits as a Resource Development Manager at United Way of Larimer County.
Throughout the interviewing process, I grilled the organization more than they did me about fiscal stewardship, transparency, and true community impact. I discovered that our local United Way is so much more than what I had thought in terms of improving lives in Larimer County, working with diverse community partners, and driving last change. I was thrilled to have the opportunity to join the United Way team and be part of the change.
Now, a year and half later, my role has expanded to include the Estes Park United campaign. I'm currently working with a team of local volunteers from across Estes Valley to plan this special campaign that will address unmet needs in the community. Our committee has landed on education as our impact focus for this year. Over the next few months, we will work with local nonprofits specifically serving the Estes Valley community to determine the best way to invest the dollars raised through the campaign, which launches in July.
The Estes Park United campaign is just one piece of the exciting collective movement taking hold in Larimer County to build long-term, lasting solutions to social issues that affect all of us. In February, United Way launched an updated Community Impact Plan, which outlines community-wide strategies to decrease poverty and increase prosperity so that all people in Larimer County have the opportunity for a better life. I encourage you to check it out, and see how your interests and passion fit into this important work happening across our community. You can view the new Community Impact Plan on our website at UnitedWayofLarimerCounty.org.
In addition, United Way continues to support Estes Park and surrounding communities as the long-term flood recovery work continues. Our work with the Long-Term Recovery Group for individuals and families affected by the disaster, as well as grants given to local businesses through the Small Business Recovery Fund, are providing much-needed resources to help people, save jobs, and play a part in restoring the vitality of the community.
I look forward to connecting with many of you in the coming months as we work together to drive the change we all want to see in Estes Park and across Larimer County. If you have a question or want to learn more about Estes Park United and the exciting community impact happening, feel free contact me at firstname.lastname@example.com or 970-407-7000.
Thank you for all you do to LIVE UNITED!

AMHERST, Mass. - The UMass hockey team upset No. 2 Boston University 3-2 on Friday night at the Mullins Center in front of 8,123 fans. Will Ortiz netted the game-winning goal two minutes into the third period while Alex Chiasson tallied two goals for the Terriers (0-1-0). Rocco Carzo and Matt Irwin also netted goals for the Mass Attack. Paul Dainton made 39 saves in goal for the Minutemen (2-0-0), and Kieran Millan stopped 23 shots for the Terriers.
The Terriers outshot Massachusetts 41-26 for the game, while the Minutemen went 0-for-4 on the power play. Boston University was 1-for-3 on the man advantage.
The Minutemen jumped out to an early two-goal lead in the first period, but a Boston University power-play goal brought it to 2-1 heading into the first intermission. Carzo got his second goal in as many games five minutes into the stanza off a pass from Ortiz. After the puck squirted into the corner, Ortiz gathered it and swung around the net to dish a hard pass to Carzo in front for the score.
Massachusetts made it 2-0 three minutes later on Irwin's third of the season. Off the faceoff, Irwin controlled the puck at the blueline. He then let a rocket go from the point that found its way through traffic and past Millan.
When T.J. Syner was sent off for hooking 12 minutes into the frame, Chiasson netted his first goal of the season after a scrum in front. Dainton made an initial save off a Wade Megan shot, but Chiasson picked up the rebound and pounded it under Dainton's sprawled glove for the score.
The Terriers outshot the Minutemen 15-10 throughout the second period, and tied the score at two six minutes into the frame. Chiasson netted his second goal of the night off a pass from Corey Trivino. After Trivino took a pass from Kevin Shattenkirk, Trivino fed Chiasson down low at the doorstep, who snuck the puck past Dainton for the goal.
The Minutemen had several opportunities to notch the go-ahead goal, but Millan stood his ground to keep UMass at two. When Massachusetts went on the power play with under two minutes to play in the period, the Minutemen pelted Millan with shots, but the Terrier netminder refused to allow the puck past him.
Although the Terriers outshot UMass 16-4 during the third period, it was the Minutemen who tallied the lone goal to walk off with the win. Ortiz netted his first goal of the season two minutes into the third period after Danny Hobbs threw the puck in front. Ortiz was able to redirect the puck past Millan for the goal.
Boston University refused to give in, however, as the Terrier forwards pounded Dainton with shots throughout the remainder of the game. But Dainton and the UMass defense turned away every Boston University bid to ice the game.

Vehicle Repossession
If you live in Texas, you know that there is a lot of miles to cover on a daily commute. Working in any one of the major Texas cities means you have a need for a vehicle. Vehicle repossession is a threat if you have gotten behind on your car or truck payments. You don't have to lose your only means to getting around. There is a solution for protecting your car or truck.
Vehicle Repossession
If you are behind on your vehicle payment you have probably been contacted by your lender. Letters and harassing collection calls are common when lenders want their payment. Filing for bankruptcy can put a halt to all collection actions and repossession. Once a bankruptcy stops a lender from collections, you can work out a repayment plan to resolve your missed payments and fees. This is typically done in a chapter 13 bankruptcy case.
Even if your vehicle has already been repossessed you may still have options. As long as the lender has not sold your vehicle after a repossession (which normally cannot occur for at least 10 days after repossession), the bankruptcy process can get your car back. You can develop a plan to make your vehicle payments, and continue to have transportation. All is not lost if your vehicle has been repossessed. In order to get your vehicle back, you will need to have proof of full insurance coverage and qualify to file a chapter 13 bankruptcy case.
Contact Our Bankruptcy Lawyers
Baker & Associates is a team of board certified bankruptcy attorneys experienced in all aspects of debt relief and vehicle repossession protection. Having personally handled over 5,000 consumer bankruptcy cases, we can help you successfully navigate the Chapter 13 process to get your car back. We can stop your collections and protect your assets!

Why the Nazi Reich lost the War
How did a nation with the most advanced weapons and tactics lose the second world war?
Only thing worse than war, is a bad peace - old Greek proverb
The second world war was a consiquence of the horrible terms Germany was given after it surrendered in 1918.
When the Nazi's took over Germany, they had had a broken Empire, at least compared to what German Empire had been some twenty years before, with serval big colonies, a huge fleet and it was the most powerful power in Europe. All of this had been lost after the first World War, a war where at the start they where only supporting their allies, before becoming the greatest aggressor, and at the end the fleet had been scuttled, the colonies taken by the victorious French and British and even parts of the central empire had been given away, West Prussia was now part of Poland.
By the mid thirties, the German army had risen again, but to support a large army the broken economy had be back on top, and by 1939 the industry was working quite well, the Reich was producing weapons, aircrafts and everything else they needed.
The only thing they could not make enough of, was fuel. Germany did produce some synthetic fuel, but it took a great deal of work to make, and it could never compete against fossil fuel. Germany had allies that produced oil, Romania was close by and could support the german war machine to some degree, lack of fuel would stall eveything, pilots would not get the training and flying hours to become effective. The trucks moving the infantry, the panzers and even the staff cars would be rendered useless.
Poland had received territory from Germany (west Prussia) after the first world war, much of this territory had belong to Poland some hundred years before, but Poland had not existed between 1775 and 1918, and before that it had been part of the first German empire (The Holy Roman Empire) this made the country a target for Nazi Germany.
By 1939 Nazi Germany had recovered some of the lost territory, it had even added some that had been out side of the original territory of the Empire, Austria, which was their allies (which actually started the first world war) had been annexed the year before, along with the Czech republic, both with the British and French threaten with war against Germany for braking the treaty of Versailles and expanding in a aggressive manner.
Poland had recived territory from Germany (west Prussia) after the first world war, much of this territory had belong to Poland some houndred years before, but Poland had not exsisted between 1775 and 1918, and before that it had been part of the first german empire (The Holy Roman Empire) this made the country a target for Nazi Germany.
Poland had powerful allies, both France and Great Britain was keen to keep the polish free from Nazi rule, knowing that a full size Nazi Reich could not only become the strongest power in Europe, it could be the most powerful in the world.
Josef Goebbels - Nazi propaganda minister.
Hitler made sure that the propaganda machine gave the German people a reason to support a war against Poland, first it was the german population living in Prussia (Poland) who wanted to be part of the great third Reich. Britain and France was allied with Poland, and if Germany attacked Poland, it would be a new war.
Hitler hoping that this was emty threats chose to invade Poland, and the 31th of august, 1939 the German forces conducted a false flag operation (attacing their own positions) telling the world that Poland had attacked Germany. The next morning they invaded with full force, comprising more than five thousand panzers and aircrafts combined, all fired up with thirsty engines.
The war had to be short, very short or the Nazi warmachine would go out of fuel, and this was a problem that followed them through the whole war, again and again. Part Two will follow.

Against my better judgment I was talked into doing a pastel demo at the Central Texas Pastel Society booth at the Georgetown Market Days last Saturday. Surprisingly it went pretty well despite how rusty I was with pastels. I posted the resulting painting on Daily Paintworks today and was thrilled to have them make it one of their Facebook Picks for today. Guess it's good to step outside the comfort zone once in a while. I used my new easel which I had just bought from Joshua Been when we stopped and visited him at his wonderful gallery in Salida on our way home from camping in Colorado. Even though it wasn't designed for pastels, it did a superb job for me. I loved it. Can't wait to use it as it was designed for my oils. www.jfrederickart.com

$f$ is continuous.
Convergence is uniform on $[0,1]$
Convergence is uniform on $(0,1)$
None of above statement is true.
Well, for 1 take $f_n(x)=x^n$, $f(x)=0$ for $ x \in [0,1)$ and $f(x)=1$ at $x=1$ hence 1 is false. For 2 I can give the same counter example as of 1. I have no idea about 3. Please help.

This looks mighty good. I am afraid I would have a very hard time with foods that limit salt. Thankfully, that isn't something I have to worry about. I have the opposite problem. I have low blood pressure - too low. On the other hand, because hubby blood pressure is too high, I do cook with foods that have limited salt and then add extra to mine.

What a keeper you have found in your hubby. That looks yummy and as long as salt is just as an occasional treat, surely it can't hurt.

You have one dear husband.
I think going "off the wagon" with the sausage was just what the doctor ordered.
If you don't make it a habit I think the happiness was worth it.
By the way the meal looks absolutely delicious.
Hope your week is filed with joy and happiness.

Lizbeth is known both as an expert in live and mediated arts and digital humanities, and also in the emergent domains of digital inclusion, assistive technology and lifelong learning. Her current work focuses on inventing new interfaces and learning models using creative tools and creative engagement strategies to address the different learning styles of all learners, with all levels of intellectual and physical ability, across cultures and languages. She and her teams specialise in developing ground-up technology solutions for people of all levels of cognitive and physical ability, from mainstream learners of all ages to 'special' and 'gifted' learners and lifelong learners in the developed and developing worlds. In all her work, she applies a universal design method to practice-based innovation to transform lives through providing unlimited access to education and tools for creative expression and learning models for communities at risk. She also teaches for the Innovation Academy on Social Entrepreneurship and Technologies for Real Social Change. She is an award-winning advocate of community-based ethical learning and teaching models using interactive tools and games to inspire and engage learners of all ages; in this domain, she was recently the Educational Advisor to the highly acclaimed BB Agus Bella animated early learning TV show, aired on TG4 in 2013-14, with original scripts and music co-devised with SMARTlab, Igloo Productions, and members of the Irish band Kila.

SUBJECT/S: Push to weaken the Racial Discrimination Act; Cory Bernardi's call to ban the burqa in Parliament House.
MICHELLE ROWLAND, SHADOW MINISTER FOR CITZENSHIP AND MULTICULTURALISM: Good morning. The events of the last 24 hours or so have been deeply concerning for Australia. It's important that we have national leadership on this issue which is why it was pleasing to see here yesterday that the Parliament was united in calling for harmony, tolerance and understanding. That is why it is so disappointing that we have learnt that Senator Bernardi amongst others is co-sponsoring a Bill to reintroduce measures to repeal Section 18C of the Racial Discrimination Act. It's especially disappointing that this comes at a time when we are also debating important national security legislation. This is a time when everyone in this building as elected representatives needs to be leaders. Senator Bernardi in proposing to reintroduce measures to repeal Section 18C of the Racial Discrimination Act is not helpful. The community has very clearly spoken on this issue some time ago. It was thought that this matter had been put to rest for now. It is therefore very disappointing to see that this is back on the table.
JOURNALIST: Reports this morning that Senator Bernardi and others want to ban the burqa, anyone wearing the burqa from Parliament House. Do you think that's constructive at all?
ROWLAND: I don't believe this is constructive at all. I also don't believe this is conducive to the harmony we expect in this building. I also note that members of the government have also made very similar comments to that effect. If we are concerned about security in this building we know that our security agencies are doing everything that they can. I also note for example in New South Wales and other jurisdictions where identities need to be confirmed, there are measures to ensure that that happens with a minimum of fuss. So I don't believe that his comments in this area have been helpful.
JOURNALIST: What do you think is driving their push for 18C and the ban of the burqa? Is it ignorance, intolerance, being racist?
ROWLAND: I cannot explain this, all I can tell you is that this has been an issue, the 18C issue in particular is one in which the community has spoken very loud and clear, that this is a matter that could potentially be a great divisive force. We should not be lending way to any such measures that are divisive at this time.
JOURNALIST: If that is the case, wouldn't there be a resounding vote against it in the Parliament and that will send a message as loud as any?
ROWLAND: One would hope that this would not even be making it to the floor of the Parliament. In many consultations I and my colleagues took when Senator Brandis released this for public comment, the message was loud and clear. If this proposal did make it to a Bill in the Parliament then we would see this as a failure of the Parliament. Now it is up to the Senators who are introducing it to formulate it as they see fit. It is up to the Senate to choose when this gets debated. I have no visibility or control over that. All I can do is reiterate that the community is extremely concerned about this issue. They thought this proposal had been put down at least for now and to see it coming up at this time when we need cohesion from our leaders is very disturbing.
JOURNALIST: Senator Bob Day said this morning that he feels the Muslim community was not getting on board with Team Australia and that's why he acted in this way. How dangerous are comments like that?
ROWLAND: I don't believe that those comments reflect the majority view of faith leaders in this country. I have spoken to a number of them – I constantly speak to them but I spoke to a number of them over the last couple of days – and you would have seen some of them making very pertinent points in multi-faith press statements on these matters. It's very clear that these are people who have no tolerance for people who seek to promote extremism. These are people who are Australian, either by birth or by choice, and they are as patriotic as we are and they are doing all they can in their own communities to make sure that people do not fall into extremist traps, that people are deterred from doing what would harm their country. And I would say again that this is simply a divisive move which will not in any way promote tolerance in our community at this time. Thank you very much.

Senior friendship is a fuller concept of friendship. It includes lots of activities encompassing eating out, line dancing, learning, entertainment, healthcare, health promotion, quality of life and discussions about healthcare and many other
Seniors count on meeting others and making friends while participating in all these activities. Since seniors understand the concept of volunteering, it is a big part of senior friendship.
1. Search for the term 'YourCityname Senior Center' in search engines, like Google or Ask, and you will get the Senior Centers for your city in the search results. If you are in an average sized city, there are likely to be multiple senior centers and you may be free to join any one of them. Some of them have membership dues of of only seven to ten dollars a year.
Many of the senior centers serve lunch and dinner for a tiny donation like a dollar to three dollars.
Sometimes the senior center near your neighborhood does not provide the services and activities you need. In that case it might be a good idea to move, if you can, nearer to the senior center you like. In the later years of life, moving can be a traumatic experience. At the same time being close to a senior center which provides you a lot of activities and opportunities to make friends can be a blessing which leads to a lot of friends. If you can join a senior center without moving that might work better for you.
Some seniors go early to the senior center to play cards and socialize before lunch. A few senior centers have card games after lunch, and some have card games before and after lunch. Many senior centers also provide transportation to home bound seniors.
The advantages of being a member of a senior center can cross over into help with safety and health issues. After all, a person with lots of friends would have lots of help with those issues.
Keeping well informed about the senior centers in your area is an excellent way to get involved and acquire a lot of friends. Senior centers tend to initiate many different activities. Volunteering to participate in the operation of the senior center itself is an excellent idea.
2. The Institute On Aging provides a national Friendship line for folks who are over 60 years of age: 800.971.0016.
Isn't that cool? They provide a phone just for friendship! You can call if you are simply feeling lonely. You can make or receive daily calls depending on your needs.
When you call them you may be able to get information about a phone that is local to you! Then you can call either the national friendship line or the local line!
3. You can also find friends online. One website that will let you find senior friends online whether you want a sports partner, a friend, a date or a pen pal is New Senior Friends For You.
If you are not housebound, it is highly recommended that you spend only twenty percent of your free time online or on the phone and the rest of your free time at offline activities.
So, you can find senior friendship at a senior center, or via the 800 phone number or online.

Enhancing In-Car Experiences
Over the past weekend, automotive company Daimler announced a strategic partnership with one of the world's leaders in mobile technology, Qualcomm, to move the development and manufacture of products and services for next generation "connected cars" to a new level. It seems that Mercedes customers would like to charge their electric vehicles (EVs) and smartphones without getting their hands dirty.
Qualcomm already has its Snapdragon Automotive Solutions, including an automobile-worthy computer processor, 3G/4G LTE wireless modems, VIVE and Bluetooth capabilities, and WiPower technology that already allows in-vehicle wireless charging of consumer-electronics. Daimler, for its part, brings to the table its sterling reputation as one of the world's leading automobile manufacturers.
The partnership will assess Qualcomm's current technology to see if it can be adopted wholesale or if additional development is necessary for the specific needs of Daimler customers. Executives at both companies are extremely upbeat on the timing of the alliance as well as the size of the market and opportunity ahead.

Femara (letrozole) is an oral, non-steroidal aromatase inhibitor, usually indicated for the treatment of hormonally responsive breast cancer after surgery and radiation. This medication lowers estrogen levels in postmenopausal women, which can slow the growth of certain types of breast tumors. It may be prescribed for women with ovulation problems, or for the ones with unexplained infertility, being used for ovarian stimulation. It also increases pregnancy chances in ovulating women.
As any other kind of medication, Femara doesn't devoid of side effects. There is a wide range of unwanted consequences that a woman taking this medication might experience. It can cause general, cardiovascular, musculoskeletal, respiratory, hepatic and gastrointestinal complications, such as higher incidence of birth defects, hot flashes, hair loss, tiredness, yellowing eyes/skin, unusual sweating, nausea, bone fractures, mental/mood changes (depression/ anxiety), persistent vomiting, dark urine, bone and joint pain, fatigue, dizziness, drowsiness, higher cholesterol, hot flashes, weight gain. Less common side effects are: bone fracture, breast pain, shortness of breath, mental depression, swelling of the feet or lower legs, breast pain, flu-like symptoms, swelling of the feet or lower legs. Also, the following adverse reactions might occur: hypercholesterolemia, flushes, arthralgia, arthritis, night sweats, myalgia, edenam weight decrease, vaginal bleeding or irritation, back pain, headache, pain in extremity, anorexiam endometrial hyperplasia, other endometrial disorders, myocardial infraction, insomnia.
This drug might impair your thinking or reactions, so be careful while driving or doing other activity that requires attention. As it applies to your health, consider making a research about what are you allergic to. It is very important because this product may contain inactive ingredients, which can cause allergic reactions or other problems. If you have noticed that any of these effects occur or worsen, notify your doctor or pharmacist promptly.
Note: You should not use Femara if you are allergic to letrozole, or if you have not gone completely through menopause. Keep in mind that your doctor prescribed this drug, according to the assumption that it will cause you more benefit than harm.
Femara belongs to the aromatase inhibitor drug class, indicated for adjuvant treatment of postmenopausal women with hormone receptor positive early breast cancer. The tablets are taken orally without regard to meals, with recommended dose – 2.5 mg once daily.
Note: Patients with cirrhosis or severe hepatic impairment must take 2.5 mg every other day (reduced by 50%). Femara 2.5 mg tablets are dark yellow, film-coated, round, slightly biconvex, with beveled edges (imprinted with the letters FV on one side and CG on the other side). Generally, the optimal duration of treatment with letrozole is unidentified, but studies show that the best option is to take this drug for 5 years and discontinue the treatment at relapse. A missed dose should be taken as soon as the patient remembers,and make sure that doses aren't doubled.
HISTORY of FEMARA on the MARKET
Back in the chronicle of events surrounding Letrozole on the market, we should highlight following steps:
July 25, 1997 FDA (US Food and Drug Administration) approved this drug to treat breast cancer in postmenopausal women. In 1998, the international BIG 1-98 trial discovered Femara advantage compared to Tamoxifen (prescribed after surgery in postmenopausal women diagnosed with hormone-receptor positive, early-stage breast cancer). The results proved that Letrozole was better for increasing the time before the cancer comes back in those who encounter recurrence and for reducing the risk of the cancer advancing to other parts of the body.
In February 2001, Novartis Pharmaceutical received a cautionary letter regarding off-label and false advertising of Femara.
November, 2005 marked the first connection between Femara and birth defects.
On November 29, 2005, a research performed by Canadians proved that 7/150 births occurred after the mother was treated with Femara, were related to birth defects: two examples of cardiac stenosis, two gastrointestinal malformations, three cases of bone malformations.
In April, 2009, Novartis Pharmaceuticals received a warning letter from FDA, mentioning the facts that sponsored links on internet search engines for Femara and other drugs were misleading and that they failed to inform about the risks related to the drug use.
On March 2, 2010, FDA notifies about the fact that Femara decreases bone mineral density.
December 23, 2011 is the date when safety labeling were modified. Since then, they included carpal tunnel syndrome and trigger finger.
The existing contraindications involve: hypersensitivity to the active substance, premenopausal endocrine status, unclear menopausal status, renal or hepatic impairment, pregnancy, breast-feeding. It has to be mentioned that sometimes doctors make a huge mistake, prescribing a medication "off-use", generating serious health damages. The same situation happened to Femara, the most lawsuits being associated with the following charges:
- Higher Incidents of Birth Defects;
- Significant risk of developing osteoporosis (particularly, for the patients with a longer treatment period. It has to be mentioned that patients must be warned about the possibility of cholesterol level growth as a result of treatment);
- Lowered bone mineral density (BMD). Consequently, consideration should be given to monitoring BMD.
Health injury is a serious offense and you need a qualified attorney in order to win the case. If you, or your loved experienced damaging Femara side effects, don't hesitate to ask for legal help. All you have to do is access Legal Bistro, create an account and describe your case.
Note: You remain anonymous until you decide to reveal your identity to the lawyer you have chosen, and it's absolutely free for consumers so you have nothing to lose!

The lullaby begins with a solo piano, stark naked in a room. Alseyda – angelic, breathy – drifts in as if a cloud, adorning the instrument in a whisp of haunting melody. A doyra drum joins, beating a steady three, invoking the dizzying sea. Accompanied by dutor and tanbur, the music throbs, Alseyda's alluring melismatic soprano irresistible in its delicious, sensuous guile, pulsating over the fevered waltz. Alseyda is a Siren, luring listeners to join her on a magical ride to nirvana – seductive, yet coy, now in control. She ebbs and she flows, she comes, she goes and returns; compressed drum kit drives this lullaby home as She demands impossible sleep. After enveloping you in the final chorus, singing strong, somnambulant submission, Alseyda floats away as she came, on a cirrus, high in the sky.

Parent Teacher Meetings Beneficial For Children
At this present era it is very necessary to have a well coordination amid the teachers and the parents. A parent is really the child's first teacher; both teacher and parent know what is best for the child. Teachers should always entertain the parents to share the educational goals of the child. A productive parent teacher meeting makes ensure about its productivity.
- Parents should know about the upcoming parent teacher meeting in advance.
- Parents can discuss their routines, rules and homework policies.
- Discuss the child's interest, their areas of concern and make sure to let the parents know how the areas of concern can be addressed. For instance, if the child is quite weak in reading, find out how the parents can help and list some preferred activities which can assist them.
- Parents can get material that may help themto understand the nature of the child's difficulty, be prepared to share it with the parents.
Parents and teachers share a common character which is the child. They interact with each other as if they are the partner in corporation and the child they share represents the corporation. If they want to care for the corporation and ensure its success, they must establish a good communication. Parents and teachers should make plans, set goals, solve problems and maintain the relationship in order to have a good partnership; a parent teacher meeting is required. It gives them idea about the child in which area they are excelling and how to improve their performance. Parent teacher meetings are a platform where the teachers make a bond with the parents to increase the potential of the child's academic success.

Deal Agreed! Arsenal set to sign Argentina star for just £10million
Goonersden brings you news from top football news sites from the likes of ESPN, SkySport, Daily Mail, Daily Star and Metro… We also Analyse football, player, transfer and predict Arsenal starting line-up.
As per reports, Arsenal have been boosted to land Sevilla star Ever Banega this summer window.
Arsenal keen on landing top quality midfielder
The Gunners could bring in Ever Banega in a £10million transfer deal after the La Liga side slashed the Argentine's valuation, according to media reports.

The North Londoners have already spent about £20million on Bayer Leverkusen shot-stopper Bernd Leno, while experienced defender Stephan Lichtsteiner joined on a free transfer from Juventus.
The same report says that Unai Emery wants the Gunners to bring in another midfielder to link up with already acquired Lucas Torreira from Sampdoria after England international midfielder Jack Wilshere made it clear that he will leave the Emirates this summer.
The South American is thought to be edging ever closer to a move to the North London club in a reported £30million transfer deal in the present market following a number of weeks of rumour surrounding him.

Our History
In early 1890 the chapel cut its formal ties with its mother church, organizing into the Fourth Street Baptist Church. At that time, both churches remained affiliated with the Southern Baptist Convention. The new church grew steadily in membership; and in July of 1890 its first contribution to foreign missions was recorded.
Continuing growth contributed to the congregation's need for a new house of worship; and on October 21, 1894, the people celebrated both a new address and a new name. Entering its new facility at 601 North Fifth Street, the church carried the name of Immanuel Baptist because, as the people unanimously agreed, "God has surely been with us."
In 1915 the congregation voted to leave the building at Fifth and Leigh to buy an existing church building further west. The membership continued to expand, and the church exercised a greater missionary outreach within its own city while maintaining its support of the Convention's missionaries on foreign fields. It was in this building at Pine and Grace in the early forties, that Immanuel established itself as an independent Baptist church and began to support missionaries of its own choice.
Once again God blessed the congregation with steady growth, and the people envisioned the wisdom of a larger sanctuary. In July 1958 the cornerstone was laid at the corner of Monument and Thompson Avenues for the new worship center. In 1962 the building was expanded by the addition of north and south transepts. In 1983 the facilities were further enhanced by the addition of the north educational wing which included the Fellowship Hall, kitchen, classrooms and staff offices.
On February 29, 1966 the newly purchased missionary home was dedicated in honor and in memory of Mary Baker, who was martyred on November 24, 1964 during an uprising in the Congo.
Immanuel's missionary commitment still thrives as it sends out men and women to tell all nations the good news of the love of God and the gift of eternal life through Jesus Christ who died on the cross and rose from the dead. And in the spirit of Acts 2:41-47, the church continues to emphasize four major objectives – worship, instruction, fellowship, and outreach.

A Florida man has been making a huge amount of money selling LEGO play sets, a career that would make any successful homejoy business person envious. The problem for Ignatius M. Pollara, he has been stealing the games from around the country and selling them for 100% profit. Ignatius stole $2 million in LEGO toys from all 50 states in a very elaborate scheme, netting him enough to live a very lavish lifestyle.
But like all dumb criminals, they never know when enough is enough, and simply continue to go to the well too many times. While 2012 was his best year ever, authorities were already aware of his theft and had begun to watch his actions more closely in the coming years. He would steal the LEGO merchandise, then sell the items in his very successful online storefront. All his items were brand new in mint condition, and he was able to fill orders if customers had specific demands.
If a customer was in need of a certain quantity, Ignatius would simply locate the store that sold the merchandise and take a business trip there. He would rent a hotel nearby the mall or shopping center, then make several trips to steal his LEGO products until he was ready to make the trip back home and sell them online. The problem however, the police were monitoring his trips and had surveillance on him leaving the hotel, entering the stores, and stealing the merchandise.

When a taller man starts looking for a dress shirt online, the first thing they have to know is what size they are. But a simple large, extra-large or medium isn't going to get the best fitting shirt and, just as importantly, one that stays tucked in during the natural movements of the day. Therefore, how do you find extra tail dress shirts online that are going to stay in the trousers?
Tall measurements
When looking for a shirt, there are various measurements involved to getting that perfect fit. Firstly, measure around your chest by placing the tape measure under your armpits at the largest part of your chest. Make sure it goes across your shoulder blades at the back and that it is snug but not tight. This is your chest measurement.
Similarly, run the tape measure around your neck, leaving a finger or two worth of gap between your neck and the tape. This is your collar measurement.
To get an idea about the length of the shirt you need, get someone to measure you from the middle of the back of your collar down to the point just below the rear pocket on your trousers. This measurement will give you an ideal length for your body size. Now you are ready to start looking online for the perfect dress shirt.
Tall dress shirts
When buying dress shirts online, you will often see reference to 'tall' as an extra category to the normal size of shirts. Most brands add 2 inches to the sleeves of their normal sized shirts for a tall shirt and 2.5 inches to the body length. So this means that if the normal shirt length is 24-27.5 inches, a tall version will be 26.5-30 inches.
Another easy way to work out if a shirt is going to be long enough for you is to see how many buttons it has on it. The more buttons on the front of the shirt, the longer the shirt is. Most brands longest shirt length will feature nine buttons so in a tall variation will be around 39.5-42.5 inches long.
Why extra long tail?
The idea behind having the extra tail on a shirt is quite simple – it is there to keep your shirt in your trousers. When measuring yourself for a shirt, you measured to your pocket, not to your waist and this gives you an extra length of material to work with. If you plan to wear your shirt untucked, this is also the perfect length that looks stylish and smart.
You can test a shirt is the correct length when you get it by trying it on then going doing simple exercise – reach up high with your hands above your head. Your shirt is the right length if it remains tucked into your trousers and there is no sign of skin showing at either side. Remember that shirts are at their longest point at the spot you measured and tend to angle upwards on either side of this so if you do reduce the length of shirt you select, remember to consider this. Your look is spoiled if your shirt stays tucked in at the back but rides up and lose at the sides.

Liverpool's St Johns Centre defied a national slump on the high street in 2018 to show an increase in shoppers and revenue, including an extra £1million worth of pre-Christmas sales in December.
The centre welcomed 13 million shoppers over the year, up more than 400,000 on 2017 and a rise of 2% compared to an average UK decrease in footfall of more than 3%*
While UK retailers struggled to keep pace with online competition, St Johns outperformed the national figures with a 1% increase in sales.
Every area of the business showed positive results for 2018 as the centre delivered on its pledge to offer a total retail package for shoppers.
The car park had its busiest year in a decade, highlighting the importance of convenience as well as value for money in attracting shoppers back into stores.
St Johns has also invested in improving the overall customer experience by introducing VR pods around the centre, as well as the latest photo booth technology and new children's rides.
It also received the Retail Team of the Year accolade at this year's Liverpool Echo Retails Awards.
St Johns general manager Neil Ashcroft said the results for 2018 demonstrated that the centre's commitment to customer service, alongside its blend of big-name brands and independents, was a successful formula.
He added: "This has been a really positive and encouraging year for St Johns with significant increases in footfall and sales. Across the UK there has been 12 consecutive months of footfall decline, but we not only attracted more shoppers, they stayed for longer which shows they appreciate what we're offering.
"2018 was an exciting year for Liverpool, celebrating the 10th anniversary of Capital of Culture, and we were able to benefit from that and contribute to it. St Johns is very much at the heart of the city, and a valued part of the community, and we're going into 2019 – our own 50th birthday – with great loyalty from customers and a genuine optimism."
*3.2% year-on-year decrease in footfall in November according to Footfall and Vacancies Monitor from the BRC and Springboard.
"St Johns is very much at the heart of the city, and a valued part of the community, and were going into 2019 our own 50th birthday with great loyalty from customers and a genuine optimism."

If you suspect that the ignition coil on your engine is malfunctioning, you can test it at home. You will need a digital multimeter (also known as a volt/ohm meter) with an ohms setting on it so that you can measure the resistance of the coil. Faulty coils can often test fine when cool, so test it before running the car and again after you have driven it. If the coil in your car is defective, you can get a new coil at most auto parts stores or the dealer.
Remove the negative battery cable from the battery. Use a wrench to loosen the retaining bolt and lift the cable end off the battery terminal.
Locate the coil on your engine. The coil may be cylindrical and have a large wire coming out of it, or it may be a flat square-shaped unit, but it will still have a large wire similar to a spark plug wire attached to it.
Remove the large wire from the high-tension terminal. This wire looks like a spark plug wire and pulls straight off the coil.
Remove the secondary wires from the coil. On older coils, you need to remove the nut that holds the wires on. On newer coils, they are typically a plug you can disconnect.
Set the multimeter to read ohms and test the resistance in the primary and secondary sides of the coil. Place the red test lead on one connector and the black on the other. Read the resistance across the two connectors. This is the primary resistance and should be between .7 and 1.7 ohms.
Place one test lead on the negative side of the coil and the second in the high-tension terminal. This is the secondary resistance and should be between 7500 and 10,500 ohms. If the readings are outside that range, remove and replace the coil.
Reinstall the wires on the terminal and plug the large coil wire into the high-tension terminal. Install the negative battery cable on the battery terminal and tighten the bolt with a wrench.

Characters Available: Cinderella, Ursula, Belle, Snow White, Ariel and Mulan! How Big Are They: 7-8 inches tall Natalie Notes: These are super soft like a stuffed animal but can be propped up like a collectible to display.

Diamonds Dazzle At Basel(HKTDC Enterprise, Vol 06,2007)
Swiss Time
Diamonds clearly led the craze for new styles at the recent BaselWorld 2007 exposition - along with more vibrant use of colour, tourbillons and leather straps - while jewellery saw greater use of pink gold.
The most precious and desired of gems was present in a variety of different configurations at the world's leading watch trade show, which was held from April 12-19, 2007.
Luxury brands showed the way with the new Concord ladies' watch, the C1, flaunting a half-carat diamond in the crown, the Omega Constellation Double Eagle Chronograph a brilliant barrage of bling with diamonds surrounding the crown, and Patek Philippe's Gondolo discreetly displaying diamonds at the right and left side of the bezel.
Another trend that attracted a great deal of attention from all levels of the global watch industry was the greater variety of dial colours. "Orange is coming as a trendy colour - and multicoloured watches," observed Hong Kong Watch Manufacturers Association (HKWMA) president Tommy Leung.
Hong Kong exhibitors were paying more attention to colours and good design, Leung added. "I see two main directions: one for more traditional tourbillon watches and the other segment richly ornamented - be it with jewels or Swarovski stones or pearls," he predicted.
Tourbillon watches have become more popular among Hong Kong presentations, with the prices for Peace Mark or Kentex products varying between US$600 and US$900 depending on the model.
Kentex mainly serves the Japanese market. "We renewed our product," explained company spokesman Kenji Hashimoto as he presented a watch that featured a titanium case and band and a tritium gas tube radiation.
Hashimoto observed a trend towards leather straps in fashion watches. "This is a market which we have not addressed so far, but see as an option for the future," he added.
Buyers clustered around the Hong Kong booths were apparently looking for watches in prices ranging from US$20-35, and with unusual designs. "That is what customers are asking for, but they are often ordering more traditional watches," noted C's Enterprises director Cindy Lam, whose firm offers watches combining different materials like Swarovski stones and sweetwater pearls at prices ranging from US$15-40.
Meanwhile, pink gold was in full revival mode in the jewellery sector. "It is combined with pink sapphires or rose quartzes," said Bronia Yip from Hong Kong's Goldiaq Creation, which produces pieces such as a medium-priced micro set comprising a ring and pair of earrings with pink sapphires and diamonds that sold for US$8,500.
It was a different story for King's Mark Designers & Mfy Ltd. "Clear colours are important for us this year," explained manager Olivia Ma, whose company sells earrings with transparent gemstones at between US$380 and US$500 wholesale. "Customers are asking for fancy and unusual design concepts."
Clearly, the record 100,000-plus visitors who attended this year's BaselWorld - a healthy 8% increase on last year's figures - were spoiled for choice.
This was equally clearly reflected in the order books of 2,100 exhibitors from 45 nations who exhibited their international exclusive new ranges and luxury collections at Basel.
Hong Kong traders in particular reported an increase in orders, while some exhibitors made important new contacts with dealers in Russia, Brazil and the Middle East.
"I see new markets in Eastern Europe, mainly Russia, having very high potential," said HKWMA president Leung, adding that success in these new markets requires following European design trends.
However, the real progress in sales at BaselWorld 2007 was in the luxury segment, where Swiss watch manufacturer Hublot sold a handful of its US$1m watch festooned with many different jewels, while customers lodged orders for later delivery.
Watches in the medium segment also saw higher demand than last year too, according to Zenith Int'l communications manager Alberto Colangelo, who claimed the show was a great success. "We have recorded double-digit growth compared with last year," he said.
Many other companies also reported expectations of double-digit growth this year, mainly because of higher local demand in most European countries.
For example, Swiss watch value exports in 2006 reached US$11.4bn, a 10.9% net increase of more than US$1.08bn compared with 2005.
Observers expected 2007 to follow the same trend, though at a slightly lower rate, with Germany in particular predicted to reverse the poor domestic demand of recent years.
However, watch and jewellery suppliers will have to be aware of increasing consumer consciousness of social issues such as the origin of the diamonds liberally used in both watches and jewellery.
As a result, companies like Sacar and Times are beginning to offer Kimberly Process guarantees which certify that diamonds are not used to finance wars.
Others are offering certificates issued by the Gemological Institute of America, while an industry-wide discussion about certificates of origin for gemstones is also beginning. "The International Coloured Gemstone Association occupies a very strong position in this area," said the new president Andrew Cody.
The World Jewellery Confederation president Gaetano Cavalieri stressed that "discussion on consumer confidence is linked to the debate on fair business practices in our sector."
Fair business practices, sustainable development in terms of the environment, the battle against counterfeit goods and efforts to inform customers are, in his opinion, the most significant issues.
Wide-ranging industry developments and discussions such as these serve to underscore the importance of BaselWorld, and the Swiss organisers are investing heavily over the next few years to ensure the fair's continuing success.
A beginning was made this year with BaselWorld Village, located in Basel's city centre, allowing visitors, exhibitors and journalists to meet and enjoy the relaxed but elegant surroundings.
By 2012, the US$291m invested in the infrastructure will see Hall 1 expanded with an extra floor, while Hall 3 will be completely replaced.
Hall 6, the traditional venue for most Hong Kong exhibitors, will be demolished - although nobody seems to bemoan the loss of this traditional residence. "The new hall will be more suitable - this is very good news for us," concluded the HKWMA's Leung.
Hong Kong watch and jewellery manufacturers hit BaselWorld 2007 en masse, once again hosting the largest pavilion at the leading Swiss trade fair.
The Hong Kong pavilion organised by the Hong Kong Trade Development Council (TDC) consisted of 326 companies that sprawled over 6,500 square metres.
Hong Kong's 166 jewellery companies, 132 suppliers of watches and clocks, 13 watch parts suppliers and 15 packaging companies were a major lure for the 101,700 high-profile buyers from 100 countries who attended this year's fair.
Overall, the Hong Kong delegation was happy with orders concluded at the show, with most watch companies reporting better business than the previous year due to good visitor traffic and positive buying sentiment.
In general, they said, buyers were looking for quality, design-driven products and were pleased with the variety on display. "Good designs mean good business," observed TDC's director for Germany Winchell Cheung.
"New contacts with dealers from Russia, Brazil and the Middle East were especially encouraging and proved that Basel is still the most important show for Hong Kong's watch and jewellery sectors."
NGA Co Ltd managing director Tse Wai Hang agreed, noting that the pedestrian flow was satisfactory this year, despite fewer buyers from the US.
"Business was up by 20% for the first three days compared with last year," he noted. "Buyers were looking for special and uniquely-designed products."
Kultajousi of Helsinki, Finland, product manager Susanna Soini was one satisfied customer. "I have been working with Hong Kong for 15 years," she revealed, adding that she loved the ease of doing business, the designs and the flexibility - apart from the good price. "Fashion watches are now really popular in Finland, so I am stocking up here at Basel."
Responding to changing demands was Angie Wong of Fat Tat Lee Watch Co, which was exhibiting at Basel for the first time. "The buyers were amazed by the new functions of our Smart Watch, which was designed and developed in-house," she explained. "We will participate at Basel next year and definitely bring some new designs for buyers."
This year's pavilion was the 21st organised by the TDC at Basel and clearly confirmed BaselWorld's continuing importance as a major forum for Hong Kong's watch and clock and jewellery industries.

- 1 1/2 cups beef stock
- 2 minced garlic cloves, divided
- Salt, pepper
- 1 Tbsp paprika, divided
- 2 bay leaves (optional)
- 2 oz vegetable oil for sautéing
- For rice
- 1 large onion
- 3 fresh tomatoes (medium size)
- Olive oil for rice
- 1 tsp paprika
- 1 Tbsp chicken base
- 1 tsp Tabasco sauce
- 1/2 tsp curry powder
- 1 lb long grain rice
- For clams
- 2 dozen cherrystone clams
- 4 Tbsp (2 oz) olive oil
- 3 cloves garlic
- Pinch cilantro
- 1/2 cup (4 oz) beer
- 2 bay leaves (optional)
- For sausage
- 3 oz vegetable oil
- 4 oz chourica (cooked and sliced in rounds)
In two separate glass containers marinate the meats for 4 hours.
For the chicken add: 1/2 cup olive oil, 1/2 cup of white wine, 1 garlic clove minced, pinch of pepper, salt and 1 Tbsp paprika.
For the pork loin add same ingredients as for the chicken, plus 2 bay leaves.
To two large skillets, add 4-5 Tbsp vegetable oil to each pan, both over medium-high heat. Add chicken to one, and pork to another. Sauté until browned. Add 1/2 cup beef stock to each pan. Cook chicken for 15 minutes and the pork loin for 20 minutes.
In another pot, add thinly chopped onion and tomatoes along with 3-4 Tbsp olive oil. Let it cook for 5-10 minutes while occasionally stirring. When done, add paprika, 3 cups of water, and 1 Tbsp of chicken base. Also, add 1 tsp of Tabasco sauce and a pinch of curry. Bring the prepared broth to boil, and then add rice.
While the rice is cooking, wash the clams and put them into a pot with 1/4 cup olive oil, 3 cloves of garlic and a pinch of cilantro. You may add 1/2 cup of beer. Let the clams boil until they open, then strain the juice from the clams into the cooking rice. Salt and pepper to taste.
When the rice is halfway cooked add the chicken and pork. Cook this mixture for about 8-10 minutes, until rice is al dente. Cover the pot. Remove the pot from the heat now and let it sit for 5-10 min.
Plating your Paella Valenciana:
2 dozen (medium size) shrimp
3 lobster tails (4 to 5 ounces each), split in two
4 oz chourica sausage (cooked and sliced in rounds)
6 slices, roasted red pepper
1 handful green peas
Peel shrimp and boil together with lobster tails.
In oval dish (cook's choice) place shrimp, lobster tails, chopped red peppers, chourica, and the peas. Press layer of Valenciana rice mixture over top. Flip dish upside down on top of a larger serving platter.
Place clams and lobster tails around the Rice for a decorative accent!
Recommended wine/beer for Paella Valenciana-Portuguese Style:
José Maria da Fonseca 2004 Periquita [Estubal, Portugal]
Here we go again! The wine steward just doesn't ever seem to catch a break. Garlic, curry, paprika, cilantro, Tabasco and chourico again—even Porter or Stout seems too tame for the aggressive ingredients of this dish. No need to fret, these ingredients never stopped the Portuguese from enjoying wine with their meals. So let's just dive into it with a perfectly delicious Portuguese red wine called Periquita. Originating only a marathon's distance from Lisbon just across the Tagus River on the Setubal Peninsula of Portugal's southwest coast, Periquita is perhaps the country's most famous red table wine, and it has been for over 150 years. Blended largely from an indigenous grape called Castelão, and matured in a mixture of new and old oak, Periquita is a fullish, supple and juicy red with a rather firm backbone, no doubt the result of the limestone that runs freely in the sub-soils of its vineyards. The spicy, berry flavors and the easy quaffing character of Periquita make it the ideal companion to Tony and Penny's take on paelha.

The last couple of years have seen a declining number of classic hip-hop albums. One could make an argument for Madvillainy or I Phantom but really, when was the last time an artist made a record like Wanted: Dead or Alive, Long Live The Kane or By All Means Necessary? By constantly broadening its scope, hip-hop seems to forsaken its beginnings rhyming over turntables. The lexicons golden age (the late 80s) was all about hard (repetitive) beats, an initial evolution away from juvenile rhyme schemes and only casual brushes with experimentation.
Boston (Wheres the Ed O.G. shout?) by way of Baltimore MC/DJ/Producer Edan has made a record that sounds like it could have been recorded during that period novel only in its departure from today. The collage-style he works in isnt too far removed from Prince Pauls approach on 3 Feet High and Rising; just messier, shorter (only 34 minutes) and skitless. What is impressive about Beauty and the Beat is that instead of making something new out of something old, Edan has taken from old and made something that sounds even older. His production, flow and rhyme patterns are straight 88. The only detour is a heavy lean toward the outskirts of British Invasion (makes sense, hes relocated to England) in terms of source material.
Essentially, Beauty and the Beat is a three-way between a sampler, forgotten folk/psyche/prog records (he namechecks Pearls Before Swine, Mothers of Invention and King Crimson) and 80s hip-hop. On I See Colors he mocks himself: Prince Paul already used this loop / But Im a keep it moving and put you up on the scoop. In 20 words, Edan lets you know where hes at. Similar to his last full-length Primitive Plus, where he dedicated entire songs to Ultramagnetic and Schoolly D., the record is more about preserving hip-hop culture that about creating something fresh.
And in this respect hes successful. Fumbling Over Words That Rhyme updates Just-Ices Going Way Back with Edan spotlighting the importance of overlooked rappers like Kool Moe Dee, Tradgedy and MC Shan. Even Jiggas boy from way back JAZ (who remembers Hawaiian Sophie?) gets a shout. Typical of the record the production on Fumbling sounds dusty, like a Philip Jeck composition with vocals and beats. His limited mixing skills (on purpose?) also add to the vintage feel: tracks segue abruptly, like hes still using belt-drive turntables and the pause button as production tools. Other spots are drenched in cheap distortion and echo chamber, while mini-Moog and rusty horn loops dress the beats shabbily.
As far as his emceeing, Edans not what you would call a natural. While a presence on the mic and far from an inept rapper, he can come across as overwrought; and his incessant battle stance doesnt always match some of the flowerpot soundscapes. Rarely laying back in the cut or switching up his tone, it can seem like hes trying to force too many syllables into one bar, giving a feeling of chasing the beat instead of flowing with it. His lyrics are just as spotty. For every "I use pens like hallucinogens theres a dog takes a shit on the floor and grows wings.
Theres no denying the purity of Edans intentions in making Beauty and the Beat hes Commons I Used to Love H.E.R. incarnate, 10 years on. But it turns out that mimicking the past can be just as dangerous as ignoring it.

did you know riot can decide who will win?
For ex, they can give you a good or a bad jungler. I've noticed for a couple hundred games, I got consistently the worst jungler. It's very easy to check : I'm top, I let my lane push under tower, I wait for 15 mins. They don't gank. Not just once or twice. They failed to gank for several hundred games. Then I push for a couple seconds, immediately the ennemy jungler ganks. That's the obvious proof of a huge gap in skills. It's also funny when I have a premade jungler and we immediately get kills because he ganks appropriately. Now obviously the usual conceited ridrones are gonna try to deny but your wishes don't weight anything against factual experience. Seem totally %%%%ed up to me when a game that is supposed to be based on skill is in fact based on the choice of the game

BUZZARDS BAY, Mass. -- Senior Charleen Klangos (Lowell, Mass.) notched 25 kills and 18 digs to lead Massachusetts Maritime to a sweep of a non-league college volleyball doubleheader from Pine Manor by scores of 3-0 in the opener and 3-1 in the nightcap in matches played Saturday afternoon at the Clean Harbors Athletic Center.
Klangos collected 14 kills and nine digs in the host Buccaneers' (3-15) opening 25-22, 25-18, 25-15 triumph, as fellow senior Meaghan Brain (Hanson, Mass.) chipped in with seven kills and three digs in the opener. Freshman Marie Harrison (Weymouth, Mass.) added 11 digs and six kills for Massachusetts Maritime, which also received 21 set assists and 10 digs from senior Emma Ethier (Norton, Mass.) to go with a combined 19 digs and six set assists from freshmen Michelle Sheehan (Attleboro, Mass.) and Christina Ruggeri (Bourne, Mass.).
