After surviving a long civil war that helped spur an exodus to NASCAR, IndyCar supporters say their style of racing is making a comeback -- one that would get a boost if a U.S. driver wins the Indy 500
INDIANAPOLIS -- Ed Carpenter spent Tuesday morning helping his wife unload and assemble a 350-pound bounce house for a party at the preschool attended by 5-year-old Makenna and 3-year-old Ryder.
It was a normal Dad day in an otherwise chaotic week for the Indianapolis native.
About seven miles from his house last weekend, Carpenter qualified first for the Indianapolis 500. On Sunday at Indianapolis Motor Speedway, he'll try to become the first American driver in seven years to win the race many consider the world's biggest.
"It's been a lot of fun being the hometown guy," Carpenter told USA TODAY Sports. "Just talking to people and seeing how excited everyone is. I've dreamed about winning the race for so long."
For Carpenter and the 10 other Americans who will start the 97th running of the Indy 500, taking the traditional swig of winner's milk would be life-changing — but it also could deliver a needed jolt to an Izod IndyCar Series whose popularity still lags well behind NASCAR.
The most accomplished American driver in IndyCar history believes an Indy 500 victory by a U.S. driver — it would be the first since the series resolved a damaging schism that threatened its existence five years ago — would be a reminder of the red, white and blue bedrock beneath the Greatest Spectacle in Racing, a tradition that is synonymous with Memorial Day weekend.
"I think what made Indy as great as it was before (was) that 90% of the drivers were American drivers," four-time Indy 500 winner A.J. Foyt said. "I think that's where everybody builds a big fan base. Our hero is going to Indianapolis, and we want to follow him."
Crowning a U.S. winner would cement a resurgence for homegrown talent in IndyCar. In addition to a third of Sunday's 33-car field being comprised of American drivers, seven are running for the 2013 championship — a five-year high.
A look at IndyCar champion Ryan Hunter-Reay:
With the damage fading from a 14-year civil war that split IndyCar into factions and helped engender an exodus to NASCAR, the sport might be on the cusp of enjoying a renaissance reminiscent of the glory days of Foyt, Mario Andretti and the Unsers.
"Americans are very well positioned to win this 500," ESPN analyst Eddie Cheever said. "We might be starting a brand new dynasty on Sunday."
Beyond the Dickensian-esque tale of Carpenter, a former USAC star whose single-car team has beat powerhouses Penske Racing, Target Chip Ganassi Racing and Andretti Autosport, the U.S. storylines are plentiful – starting with Chevrolet sweeping the top 10 spots in qualifying.
A triumph by Marco Andretti (grandson of Mario, son of Michael) or Graham Rahal (son of Bobby) would reawaken links to legendary names and storied history. Conor Daly and Josef Newgarden represent hope for developing Generation Y stars. A.J. Allmendinger, whose career seemed in jeopardy after he failed a drug test and lost his Penske ride in NASCAR last year, would become a great comeback story if he can win in his second chance with team owner Roger Penske.
Top 10 drivers at Indy 500:
USA TODAY Sports breaks down the Indianapolis 500.
An Indy 500 win could launch any of them on the road toward becoming a household name. According to Repucom, which tracks the exposure of drivers and sponsors across several sports, Dario Franchitti received twice as much media value last year as series champion Ryan Hunter-Reay. In 2011, the late Dan Wheldon was ranked No. 8 in IndyCar driver exposure despite starting only one race after the Indy 500 win.
"Without a doubt we need an American, and certainly if it was Marco or myself, it would help even more just because it's a name," said Graham Rahal, who is driving a Dallara-Hondafor the Rahal Letterman Lanigan Racing team owned by his father, winner of the 1986 race. "It'd just be nice to have an American win."
IndyCar comeback
The momentum from Hunter-Reay's 2012 series championship was blunted by the late-season ouster of then-IndyCar CEO Randy Bernard, and the series has spent the past six months restructuring much of its front office staffs.
"I grew up as a fan of the sport, a kid wanting to be an IndyCar driver, and for years we heard that we needed an American champion, that's what this sport needs," Hunter-Reay told USA TODAY Sports. "There's a lot more that can be done. I'm completely willing to be a leader and help IndyCar and move forward ... do whatever I can really. "
Much of the damage was fallout from the grinding battle for open-wheel supremacy between the CART (later Champ Car) series and the Indy Racing League, a breakaway circuit formed in 1996 by former Indianapolis Motor Speedway CEO Tony George. The fissure locked many brand-name teams and drivers out of Indy for several years.

Growing up in Los Gatos, Calif., Allmendinger dreamed of racing in IndyCar, but the split soured him on the Indy 500's prestige.
"I thought it was just tarnished...I knew the best in the world, they just weren't racing in the Indy 500," he told USA TODAY Sports.
Though Allmendinger enjoyed a successful career in Champ Car, scoring five victories and ranking third in the 2006 standings, he moved to the Sprint Cup Series the following year as one of many rising open-wheel stars to answer the siren call of stock-car racing. His first start at Indy came in the 2008 Brickyard 400.
Having run twice in Indycar this year with Penske (and with another race slated after Indy), Allmendinger has been impressed by the circuit's at-track atmosphere and competition.
"It needs a better TV deal," he said. "It's hard to get sponsors when people don't even have it on their TV channel."
Room for both?
Though Allmendinger is the rare instance of a stock car driver defecting to IndyCar, there have been fewer drivers leaving for stock cars, too. That's partly because the contraction of NASCAR teams has created fewer opportunities than 10 years ago.
It's also the result of a refortified ladder system. The Mazda Road To Indy was created as a path into IndyCar by offering bonuses for advancement, and four of the seven full-time American drivers – Andretti, Rahal, Carpenter and Hunter-Reay – won in its highest level, Indy Lights. Newgarden and Charlie Kimball also advanced through the farm system.
"Indy Lights has produced some great talent lately, and they're getting hired based on talent, not on what sponsors they're bringing," Hunter-Reay said. "As long as that's happening, the system's working. I'm very encouraged by that."
There also are promising signs in the United States Auto Club series, an unofficial feeder system for IndyCar. Honda announced a multiyear sponsorship program with the objective of putting a new USAC graduate in the 2016 Indy 500.
Ryan Hunter-Reay on the Indy 500:
Interview with Indy 500 driver Ryan Hunter-Reay
The USAC ranks were once the pathway to IndyCar for legends such as Foyt, but Carpenter was among the only notable products in recent years as NASCAR became a more attractive option for American stars such as Ryan Newman, Jeff Gordon and Kasey Kahne.
Allmendinger says Americans love racing enough to support both.
"It doesn't have to just be NASCAR," he said. "IndyCar can be strong, too.
"It's an awesome series, and the racing is phenomenal. There are so many storylines, and someone needs to tell them."

Well, I am familiar with the Squire Strats from the mid 80's being built excellent from Japan. Surprisingly, these Indonesian built Squire Deluxe strats have a neck that feels like the 60's strats. Why doesn't the MIM strats feel this good? Over all a guitar that is built with a basswood body has an excellent tone for all around rock n roll. I prefer the basswood over alder for the rock style tone. The build quality is excellent and not cheap like the lower line squire strats. The deluxe series is a new better quality and I hope Fender keeps this up. I love the tone of this guitar. I think the quality is sometimes hit or miss in the setup. I got mine thru MF and it was sent with the setup perfect. Feels like a really good strat and the sounds are great. An overall excellent deal on the price. When more people find how good this guitar is I'm sure the price will get much higher. I really like my Squire Deluxe and will be buying another one soon to have a really good backup but will probably put a humbucker in the bridge on that one. I have 30 years of playing experience behind me so I know strats.

I played one in a music store. I love Seymour Duncan pickups, first off. These are "duncan designed", so they're decent, better than most squier pickups. That said, the Hot Rails (or this, a copy of it) is an excellent bridge fire breather for a stratocaster. You can play metal on this baby no sweat. However, it has hot rails in the neck and middle too, which gives you absolutely no versatility. The bridge is warm and hot for a bridge, but that same pickup in the neck and middle goes from muddy to insanely muddy. It would've been a much nicer guitar if they put something else in the neck and middle, like a cool rails neck and vintage rails middle. The rails pickups are good for string bends since they don't drop out during bend, but otherwise this thing is really only for metal.

Comments about Squier Deluxe Hot Rails Strat Electric Guitar:
I've never owned a low end guitar that sounds and plays as well as this. I bought with some skepticism after buying and liking the Squier Tele with humbuckers. Other than what I noted under cons this guitar is all pluses. Beginning guitarists may want to have an experienced player work it over before deciding. The pickups deliver a wide range of tones and are very loud. The only other minor negative is the frets need finishing but what do you want for this price!

Comments about Squier Deluxe Hot Rails Strat Electric Guitar:
Best guitar for the price I have ever owned. The pickups are almost worth the price of the guitar. My only con which is minor is the edges of the frets need to be smoothed out. Other than that this is an awesome Stratocaster. I bought the black one and a year later bought a white one. They can't be beat for the money. I also own a US Standard Strat. If it wasn't for the neck needing filing this guitar is as good as a US Strat or at least a Mexican. The secret to the foreign strats is to get ones made in Indonesia and then file the edges of the frets. Nothing else is needed. My opinion.

Comments about Squier Deluxe Hot Rails Strat Electric Guitar:
This guitar looks, sounds and feels awesome! Nothing more to say. Best guitar I've ever had hands down. Thanks to Musician's Friend for being my friend for many many years!
Comments about Squier Deluxe Hot Rails Strat Electric Guitar:
Overall it's a must have for my collection and i am a pro. This guitar ended up being my main workhorse
All i did was change strings because i use 11's and this guitar did not disapoint me. Sleek look, great tone, easy playability and at a affordable price. I love my new deluxe hot rails so much that i bought a new hardshell case to carry it in. It holds it's own with with usa models for sure.
Buy it, buy it ....you will not be sorry
Mine had one screw missing from the pickguard but probably just a small oversite. Lots of bang for your buck with this guitar.
I could not have ask for a better guitar for the cost of this gem
Comments about Squier Deluxe Hot Rails Strat Electric Guitar:
What a great sounding guitar! I only wish the pickup were tapped for single coil too. Neck is a little fat, but access above the 12th fret is great for lead. One hot puppy. I'm semi-pro and this has replaced a $2000 Les Paul as my go to axe.
Remember this is a entry level and priced as such. If you consider that it's a 10. But matched with american strats/gibson etc. it's a solid 8
this sound great and 3 hot little humbuckers give a tremendous variation an sounds.
Comments about Squier Deluxe Hot Rails Strat Electric Guitar:
all i can say about this guitar is "wow!"... i only played it one time before i bought it. the whole thing is an all out beast, from the wammy bar to the pickups to the fact that it has 22 frets... id recomend this guitar to everybody from Eric Clapton to Kirt Hammet, bc it cand and will do it to the very max. before i bought this thang, my main axe was an Epiphone Les Paul Custom. but now, its second to my Squier Deluxe Hot Rails Stratocaster... get it now while u still can!!!
Comments about Squier Deluxe Hot Rails Strat Electric Guitar:
Here we go...This is without a doubt a great Strat.I have to tip my hat to Fender/Squire for a great guitar.I bought a white one used from this site, and have been very tone happy!It now has been my go to guitar.If it anit on the stand its in my hands. Only issue I had is that the bridge pickup was installed in the middle, so I reversed the pickups and now its great. This guitar can cover so many styles. Squire has made a fan out of me...I own many of the recent Squireswith the Semour Duncan Design pickups.Fender/Squire/Semour Duncan=Tone Machine For Little Cash!!...Get Yours Now!!!
Comments about Squier Deluxe Hot Rails Strat Electric Guitar:
I own this guitar,first my friend I'm check on my local guitar shop on web site,Then there was new arrival guitar and its all Squier and looking on Hot rails the white one..and only 2 of them are available black and white onethen I'm checking about the review's on google and lots people said it was awesome and good guitar..so i ask my friend to go to the shop first to check it out for me then he test it too..he said it was awesome guitar,very verstyle and i want to know more about it.On the next day i went to that shop and test it both of them the white one and the black one.when i use the black one the fret edge is so sharp and make my fingers bleed a bit.then i use the white one,the fret edge is so smooth not like the black one.and the tone is so sweetand clearthen i ask the worker there is that has been book already or notthe he said "lots of people want to book itbut they don't pay the deposit yetand if you have cash now you can buy it before somebody else took it".Then i pay it cash on that day for 500+ just wanna own that guitar and its sound expensive cause its S.E Asia price..then now hotrails are one of my favorite guitar..and the pick up is so awesomepaint job also awesomei give credits on people who design itand with that guitar it help me to make lots of songs for my bandsbut only i didnt like about hotrails is the fret board wood..i want it maple not rosewood..because for me if they use maple one the tone will be more awesomeand the things i like the most about hot rails isits good for any genre..
Comments about Squier Deluxe Hot Rails Strat Electric Guitar:
ok, i've only played it once, but for a squier, it ROCKS! if i had some dough right now i would buy it. ya know, usually just the word "squier" on the headstock it a turn off for me, but i wanted to play it just because i had never seen those pickups before and discovered that squires can be awesome!
Comments about Squier Deluxe Hot Rails Strat Electric Guitar:
This guitar was a surprise to me and I'm not usually speechless by a cheap guitar but this one is amazing for the money. I was not that happy with the paint job cause mine had what looks to be little specks of dust in the paint, like the factory workers didn't paint it in a dust free room. The tuners work nicely and the bridge seems to be well built. The neck is a little bulky but works substantially well and the frets are not sharp around the edges which is quite nice. Where this guitar really shines are these monster pickups in the pickguard that can blow down a house. The bass in these pickups and the sustain creates a heavy metal that everyone should have. I am not a huge fan of basswood guitars but this guitar has some weight to it so dont think its going to feel like driftwood in your hands it still weighs about the same as my MIM strat. Compared to my MIM strat it could come close in comparison but the paint job is why I give this guitar a few less marks for excellence besides that your getting a pretty good deal anyway and if you wanted to shell out the cash go ahead and paint it another color yourself.

Its Tuesday and Andrew Dunn-Bauman has his Brewers Blog
Brewer Fans Quick to Forgive By Andrew Dunn-Bauman
Brewers fans all know the saga of Ryan Braun. They know about the cheating, they know about the lying, they know about the 65-game suspension. But on Monday afternoon, it seemed the Brewer fan base chose to forgive and forget all of that, and instead greeted Braun with a roaring standing ovation as he approached the plate for the first time since July 2013.
For a group of fans that sounded decidedly furious with Braun when news first broke of his suspension, it was certainly more than a bit surprising to witness the reception Braun received from his home crowd on Opening Day.
I fully understand that the Brewers have a loyal and diehard fan base. I understand that they want their team to succeed on every level, as they understand that Braun is an integral part of this team's success. The outpouring of support from the 45,691 fans in attendance was merely a reflection of how badly this city wants the Crew to succeed this year, how badly they have missed warm weather and the boys of summer, and how badly the fan base wants to put the past to rest.
But I do not agree with the standing ovation.
For one at-bat, just one at-bat, the Brewer fan base should have sent Ryan Braun a message. Boos would have been appropriate, and they would have sent that message that the fans and city as a whole is disappointed in Braun's actions - both the fact that he cheated the game of baseball, and that he lied about it, trying to drag others down in the process. Silence, on the other hand, would have been eery and infinitely more effective. Imagine Braun being announced only for the stadium to fall dead quiet. That would have been memorable and effective.
Instead the crowd roared for Braun every plate appearance, sending the message that regardless of all the wrong he has done to the team and its fans, they are willing to accept him with open arms regardless. Brewer fans have taken loads of criticism for this, both from fans of other clubs and national pundits. Some of it is warranted. Some of it is excessive and uncalled for.
But the important thing is that the warm reception is in the past now. The Opening Day fanfare has passed as a blip on the screen, and it is time to get down to the grind of the season. Braun deserves the support of Brewer fans moving forward, because he needs to succeed for this team to succeed. And they are completely in the right to support him as a member of this organization. The fans missed their opportunity to send a message, plain and simple. Now let's leave the controversy in the past; it's time for baseball.

Water makes up two-thirds of your body. As you workout, you lose some water, sodium (salt), and to a lesser degree, potassium and magnesium, through sweating.
If you lose too much water, you can become dehydrated. Early signs of dehydration include headache, fatigue, difficulty concentrating and constipation.
To stay hydrated, drink 8 to 10 ounces of water about two hours prior to working out. Right before you head out to run or walk, drink another 6 to 8 ounces. You may also want to bring a water bottle along as your mileage increases.
After your workout, down 8 to 10 ounces of a sports drink cut with water to replace lost salt and potassium – electrolytes that help your body function.
Equally as important as hydration, food gives you the energy to power through your training. High-carb, low-fat and low-fiber foods are easy to digest, and can provide an energy boost prior to working out.
Try eating a piece of fruit (such as a cup of cantaloupe, peach, plum or apricot) with cottage cheese or low-fat yogurt about an hour before running. Another good choice is half of a plain bagel with peanut butter.
Stay away from cheeses, milk products and fatty meats like bacon because they break down slowly in your digestive system and can lead to an upset stomach.
Next week, we'll talk about the prevention and treatment of training injuries.
Week 3

Walk 4 minutes (warm up), run 8 minutes followed by walking 2 minutes. Repeat this run/walk sequence 2 more times. Add another 2 minutes to your last walk for a cool down.
Repeat Tuesday's workout.
Repeat Wednesday's workout.
Rest or walk 35 minutes (your choice).
Add 5 minutes to your walking time. Walk at least 4 days (between 25 to 30 minutes) and add a longer walk of about 40 minutes for a total of about 150+ minutes. The cardio base you're building now will prepare you when we pick up the pace.

What to do with Jamie Lundmark?
Kent Wilson
March 25 2009 12:04PM
This past summer, Jamie Lundmark agreed to a contract with the Calgary Flames, doubtlessly the only NHL team that had any interest in his services. It was a two-way deal, with him set to make a bare-bones 100k/annum rate while toiling in the AHL. The minimal dollar amount was a calculated risk on Lundmark's part: it allowed him to avoid re-entry waivers due to a wrinkle in the current CBA. That meant, the Flames would have no barriers to calling him up if they needed him during the year. It also meant that if he floundered in the AHL or if the Flames decided not to summon him to the big leagues, he'd be making a relatively piddly amount on probably his last NA pro hockey contract. For Jamie, it was the equivalent of going all in before being blinded-out.
The gamble paid off, however. The former 9th overall draft pick was dominant on a very mediocre QC Flames squad, scoring 52 points in 54 games played. That production earned him the call when Bourque/Bertuzzi went down for the count and he's been full value ever since with 13 points in 17 games. He has never looked out of place on the Flames this season, even when playing amongst the team's top 6 with guys like Daymond Langkow and Mike Cammalleri. He's making Sutter look like a genius for re-signing him this summer, no doubt.
Long-term, questions about whether Lundmark can sustain this production and possibly be re-signed as a potential "Daniel Cleary" type project loom. In the short-term, however, there remains the question of what happens to Lundmark when Bertuzzi fully recovers and re-joins the team - because it can be argued that the former has been the superior player so far this year.
Lundmark has better underlying stats across the board. Slightly better PPG pace (0.75 vs 0.76), better corsi rate (+8.4 vs +5.8) and better ES efficiency (3.21 vs 1.84) relative to Bert. And that's playing roughly equivalent roles, although Bertuzzi has likely had the better linemates in aggregate since Jamie has played anywhere from the 2nd to 4th line.
Of course, Lundmark's results are sullied by small sample size - 17 games is hardly enough data to hang one's hat on, and his ESP/60 rate is clearly inflated (3.21 is amongst the leagues elite - obviously it's bound to go down over time). In addition, he's had the benefit of the bounces thus far, whereas Bertuzzi has been unlucky by comparison. Still, I like Lundmark's game more than Bertuzzi's; the big guy is clearly the more skilled of the two and his size gives him the sort of advantage that Lundmark can't match physically. But Bertuzzi is, for lack of a better word, a dumber player. He's lackasdaisical in his own end of the rink and he constantly makes bad bets when it comes to executing in the neutral and offensive zones. He's the king of the needless and easily intercepted back-hand pass. He hates making the "standard" play, even when the situation calls for it, so he's prone to turning over the puck in bad areas - especially at the oppositions blueline. That's why, despite his size, soft hands, accurate shot and lots of time with the best linmates, Bertuzzi has one of the lowest corsi rates amongst any of the Flames forwards; the puck frequently goes the wrong way with him on the ice. His decision making and effort levels are dubious, at best. If Bertuzzi wasn't one of the team leaders in terms of ES and PP ice-time (due to Keenan's ongoing infatuation with him) his point totals would likely be fairly nominal.
Lundmark, on the other hand, is skilled enough to be effective, but also has the sort of motivation and will to work his bag off. He's impressed me during this renaissance not only because of his output, but also because he's fighting to be useful all over the ice: from the slot to the boards to his own end of the rink. He doesn't make stupid back-hand passes. He does dump the puck in when it's appropriate.
Bertuzzi, for his part, is extremely effective in a very narrow fashion: he's good down low in the offensive zone, against soft opponents and in certain situations (break-aways, shoot-outs). He's basically the hockey equivalent of a designated hitter. If I could sub him in now and then without exposing him to the very risks he engenders, then I'd like him a lot more than Lundmark. Unfortunately, that's not the way it works in hockey, so Bert's good and bad are at constant war when he's in the line-up. Which is why, in my view, Lundmark would be the preferable choice to remain in the Flames top 6 when Bertuzzi returns.
Of course, this is all moot. The decision obviously isn't a contentious one in Keenan's mind...
Excellent article Kent. Never in my wildest dreams did I think Lundmark would ever return from his Russian exile (or wherever he was) much less be put above Bertuzzi in quality of play in the NHL. He has earned it.
This is excellent news for Lundmark who I have always liked. I hope he resigns!
On the plus side, being demoted to the third line really isn't a bad thing on this team. Of course, that has a downside as well, namely that the third line of Glencross-Conroy-Moss is doing just fine on it's own.
So that leaves a fourth line position for Lundmark. I think Peters and Nystrom are decent guys to have on a 4th line, but neither one will do much to support Lundmark offensively.
What are we saying here exactly? Bertuzzi is worse than Lundmark or worse bang for the buck?
I think Bertuzzi is more inherently skilled, but worse outside a narrow range of circumstances because of his questionable decision making.
I couldn't have said it better myself, but it's obvious Lundmark trumps Bertuzzi in hockey sense. It would be nice if we could sub out Roy for Bertuzzi or something like that. Bertuzzi at 9-10 minutes a game playing against softies with some decent linemates could be worth a try.

The Role of An Adoption Facilitator
Pact, An Adoption Alliance is a 501(c)(3) non-profit incorporated in November, 1991. Under California law, Pact is defined as an adoption facilitator, not a licensed agency. As such Pact is in compliance with all California regulations governing facilitators as well as Federal guidelines regarding the charitable purposes of non-profits.
Facilitators help make the process easier. Principals must decide which professionals they wish to use. A facilitator can help in the networking and matching process; may negotiate, intervene or mediate between the principals; may coordinate the nuts and bolts of the process as it moves forward; and may offer support and referral services.
Lawyers and psychotherapists trained in adoption law and psychology, respectively, have much counsel to offer about the legal and psychological issues. Many lawyers and psychotherapists also act as facilitators, meaning that they help with the process beyond the purely legal or psychological scope.
During the process of a given adoption, you can use different professionals for different functions, or use a single professional for more than one function. If a professional will be acting in more than one role, be sure to determine their fee structure for both licensed and unlicensed services. Whatever services you intend to use, be clear with all providers as to their specific roles. As one of the principals, you must remain in charge of and be very confident about all counsel you decide to take.

Our program is somewhat unique in that the curriculum emphasizes the importance of values and professional behavior. We believe that values drive behavior and thus we have selected ten core values that we believe are essential to professional behavior. We also believe that professional behaviors are fundamental to the most effective application of cognitive knowledge and clinical psychomotor skills. Therefore, our curriculum has been designed with an "affective" foundational core. Principles and applications of values and professional behaviors are interwoven in courses throughout the foundational sciences, clinical sciences, behavioral sciences, clinical practice, and research. Throughout the curriculum, the student is provided with many opportunities to develop professional behavior during interactive lectures, small group discussions, group projects, laboratory sessions, laboratory practical examinations, full-time clinical internships, and interactions with peers and faculty.
The "affective" foundational core is vital to the Program because it is congruent with the overall Mission of Missouri State University, specifically the Public Affairs Mission to:
" …develop citizens of enhanced character, more sensitive to the needs of the community, more competent and committed in their ability to contribute to society, and more civil in their habits of thought speech and action…"

BROOMFIELD - The Holy Family girls basketball team are well on its way to bringing home another state title.
The Tigers, who had won four consecutive state titles before losing in Sweet 16 last season, were chosen the No. 2 overall seed in this year's Class 3A state tournament by Colorado High School Activities Association on Sunday.
The Tigers open the state tournament at home on Friday at 4:30 p.m. when they host 31st-seeded Sheridan (12-11 overall) in the opening round of the state tournament.
Holy Family (17-5) won the Metro League District Tournament last Saturday, when the Tigers beat Bishop Machebeuf Buffaloes 59-46 in the Metro League championship game at Manual High School.
The victory helped Holy Family cap the tournament with a perfect 3-0 record. The Tigers cruised through the opening two games, topping Faith Christian 60-20 and Jefferson Academy 50-24 — but Machebeuf (16-5) gave the Tigers some trouble on Saturday.
With freshman point guard Katie Chavez in foul trouble the Buffaloes took a 27-26 lead into halftime, but the Tigers responded with the help of Lindsay Chavez. The junior guard hit a trey and helped Holy Family start the second half on a 7-0 run to take control of the game.
Lindsay Chavez had a team-high 17 points and four steals, while Michela Blanchard had a game-high 13 boards.
The Chavez sisters are the Tigers leading scorers going into the state tourney, Lindsay is averaging 12.4 points while Katie is at 9.9.
If the Tigers win Friday's game they will also host the second round, which is played on Saturday.
Centauri (19-2) is the top-seeded squad after winning in the Intermountain League Districts. The Falcons topped Pagosa Springs 35-30 in the district title game on Saturday.
The Holy Family boys are the No. 3 seed and will host Buena Vista on Friday at 6 p.m.
The Tigers came close to getting the top seed in the tournament, but lost to Kent Denver Sun Devils 45-41 on Saturday in Metro League District championship game at Manual. Holy Family finished the district tourney 2-1, beating Jefferson Academy 52-50 and Peak to Peak 52-43.
With the victory Kent Denver has the No. 1 seed and Colorado Springs Christian is the second-seed.
Holy Family opened the title game strong on defense, keeping the Sun Devils scoreless in the opening quarter. However, Kent Denver closed the game by outscoring the Tigers 17-9 in the fourth.
Devlin Granberg had a team-high 12 points, while Jarron Sprenger added eight and David Sommers chipped in seven.
Sommers is averaging a team-best 12.9 points going into the state tourney.
The Sun Devils also beat Holy Family in the regular season, 48-44 in the season finale and knocked the Tigers out of the state tournament last season in the semifinals.

Home/Road Fenwick splits, and the bizarre Calgary Flames season
Cam Charron
January 13 2012 03:28PM
I was comparing home and road splits for team score-tied Fenwick percentage earlier and noticed an odd discrepancy for the Calgary Flames: the team is sixth in the league in possession at home, yet 29th in possession on the road.
Score-tied Fenwick percentage, for those unaware, is the rate of shots and missed shots that were fired on the other team's net. It's an excellent predictor of wins and future success, and a fairly decent arbiter of team quality. Naturally, it's the first thing I look at when a team is going through a hot streak or a slump, to look at this statistic to see if the recent play is due to actual talent or luck.
Naturally, this sort of bears out for the Flames: they are 7th in the Conference in points (despite playing only 20 games) at home, yet 12th in points on the road. Clearly, there's a huge gap in how they play at home and on the road.
Now, this brings up a few pertinent questions. What makes the Flames play better at home? It was suggested when I brought this up on Twitter that it was due to line matching, but I had my doubts. I noticed that, looking back through the last three seasons at Behind The Net, teams didn't seem to be able to maintain a home and road split in Fenwick percentage from year-to-year:
So I don't think that this is due to matchups or arena bias. It's not even a tough road trip issue: On Calgary's recent 7-game trip, the team played at 47.7%, which is still poor but above their season average on the road.
Perhaps it's just sampling bias, which brings up the second pertinent question: "Which teams in the last three years have been the most noticeably different on their home ice compared to road ice?" The 2008/09 New York Islanders were 50.9% at home, so an above-average possession team, but were a horrible 39.2% on the road (if you're less than 45, you hardly have a hope at the playoffs. Anything in the low 40s is awful).
Also that year, the San Jose Sharks were an astounding 61.8% team at home, but just 51% on the road for a very impressive split. (I checked the toughest part of the schedule for the '09 Sharks, a 20-game stretch wherein they played just six times at home, and they had a 54.1% Fenwick rate, so travel wasn't the issue in their case).
So perhaps the high home and road split numbers of the Calgary Flames are a coincidence: there is a very wide disparity with these teams halfway through the season compared to the full season (the correlation between home and road splits [r-squared] is .19 after half the season, whereas in the last three seasons, after 82 games, the correlation is a much-more significant .45).
What this means is that the Flames and the Edmonton Oilers (56.3% home and 44.5% road) are likely to see those numbers come closer together as the season draws closer to a conclusion. For Calgary, in the thick of a playoff race with a very good chance based on how few home games they've played, it's probably more likely to trend upwards, but they should also start playing a bit better on the road as well.
One other thought: for how much press the Winnipeg Jets earn at home, their home/road split is actually 21st in the league. The main difference between the Jets record at home and the Jets on the road is their luck factor, or PDO, which adds even strength shooting percentage and save percentage. On the road, the Jets have a 97.8% PDO, while at home, it's 101.6%.
January 13 2012, 03:54PM
The results at home and on the road have been very hard to pin down, but their is no mystery behind the record. The Flames are being rewarded accordingly for very poor play on the road, and decent play at home. In other words, their effort at home is different (as in better), than it is on the road. So, the real question should be why the different levels of effort and preparation for home vs. away games?
The Flames are not a team gifted with a lot of talent, and on most nights have to compete with a lot of intensity and purpose to beat all opposing teams. For this team there are no gimmies, if they mail in a performance, they will lose.
Remember this one?

Morn Capper, British Museum
As Icelandic ash clouds threatened to delay the main shipments, my Treasures of Heaven installation with the Museum Assistant team began eventfully. I need not have worried. Customs delays merely allowed us to make an especially large mountain of tissue balls with which to safely pack objects. By the evening, our lorry finally arrived back at the Museum and the crates were safely unloaded and locked away until morning.
Starting early on day two with British Museum objects, crates were opened and parcels unwrapped, as every object was examined to ensure it had survived the flight from the USA intact.
First paperwork: despite their apparently good condition, these irreplaceable treasures are hundreds of years old, and each has instructions for care and display. Relics and reliquaries also have an unusual mixture of materials. Precious metals like gold and silver prefer dry conditions, while organic materials like wood, bone and ivory need carefully conditioned humidity to stop them cracking.
Then the excitement: under the watchful eyes of the exhibition curator, James Robinson, I unwrapped the head of St Eustace – a British Museum object which has been on tour around the world – from the special intercept material which prevents him from tarnishing and carefully compared each gem, rivet, dent and scratch to the record photos to make sure he had returned safely. Satisfied, James signed St Eustace back into British Museum hands. Senior Museum Assistant, Jim Peters was given the nerve-wracking task of carrying the Holy Thorn Reliquary – a 700 year-old object made for the French royal family – across the Great Court and into the exhibition space.
Immediately, couriers from across the globe began to arrive, co-ordinated by Project Manager Rachel. Curators from Cleveland and Baltimore were joined by conservator Larry Becker from the Metropolitan Museum, New York, with the St Ursula companion: the face on every British Museum poster for the exhibition. Specialist British Museum conservators advised on their care.
Once these couriers leave site the display cases containing their objects cannot be reopened and with Museum Assistant Sam co-ordinating the effort the team had to work late into the night.
Each pin holding such relics as the sixth century necklace from Cleveland or the skull fragment of St Thomas Becket from Stonyhurst College, was expertly positioned, tested and sheathed in plastic.
While some of these relics have little known histories, others have fascinating stories up to the present day. The Man of Sorrows, a Byzantine Icon, has been in Santa Croce in Rome since at least the fourteenth century, where it was surrounded by the cabinet of relics it still holds today, each with an individual hand written label. Later in the exhibition, books from the Reformation hint towards a time when the printed word led to greater questioning of these strange and powerful objects of devotion. It has been a fascinating week.
Treasures of Heaven: saints, relics and devotion in medieval Europe opens on 23 June 2011. Book tickets online or become a Member and gain free entry to all special exhibitions.
Treasures of Heaven: saints relics and devotion in medieval Europe is sponsored by John Studzinski.

Forward Gold Daily Regimen® & PearlBiotic® Spheres VitaKit (30-day supply) | Multi-Nutrient & Digestive Relief Supplements
Item# YHF
Just one PearlBiotic Spheres tablet a day, coupled with your daily dosage of Forward Gold Daily Regimen, is the foundation you need for lasting good health and advanced digestive support.
The secret to the effectiveness of Forward Gold Daily Regimen lies in the 3 complexes that you'll find in every packet:
1. Forward Gold™ Multi-Nutrient (2 capsules)
Robust daily nutrition, with higher dosages of the nutrients in the right forms,
for those over 65—all in fewer pills a day!
The first building block of my Forward Gold Daily Regimen formula is its high-powered blend of 22 essential vitamins and nutrients. Based closely on the Forward multi-nutrient I've been using with my patients for decades, this foundation supports a healthy immune system, neutralizes free radicals, supports your cardiovascular system and insulin response, offsets medication-induced nutrient depletions, and helps you maintain total-body wellness.
2. Bone and Balance Essentials™ (2 capsules)
Bioavailable building blocks for solid bones, strong muscles,
and secure balance
My rich, mineral-based formula for healthy muscle and bone uses a concentrated, uniquely bioavailable form of calcium carbonate that your body can absorb readily. This blend also includes vitamin D, shown repeatedly in studies to contribute to bone and muscle strength, function, and balance; boron, which helps your body absorb calcium; and magnesium, a nutrient critical for calcium absorption, bone density, and muscle strength.
3. O-3 Brain™ (1 softgel)
Fish oil combined with a clinically studied brain booster to keep you thinking
clearly for years to come
Rarely do I discover a breakthrough ingredient that impresses me as much as Cognizin citicoline (CDP-choline), an amazing, clinically studied compound that helps enhance brain and memory function, attention, and mental energy. Cognizin nourishes your brain with a precursor to the neurotransmitters that are responsible for communication between neurons, maintaining healthy brain cells, and even storing and recalling memories.
The research behind Cognizin benefits is nothing short of astounding. A 2011 clinical study showed that after just 4 weeks of treatment, subjects had remarkable improvement on a standard psychological test designed to measure attention and focus. Improvement was measured by a decrease in errors made on the test. Cognitive function is critical for long-term health and independence. That's why O-3 Brain™ is the cornerstone of my multi-nutrient, Forward Gold, for ages 65 and over.
I've also combined this discovery with the critical omega-3 fatty acids EPA and DHA from clean, pure fish oil for cardiovascular and total-body health, plus vitamin B12, to support mental clarity, nervous system functioning, and a healthy mood.
PLUS…Without a healthy digestive system, good health is impossible to achieve. And the key to healthy digestion is to have the proper level of "friendly" bacteria in your digestive tract, and a good probiotic supplement can help with that. The only probiotic product that meets my high standards is PearlBiotic Spheres.
Taking PearlBiotic Spheres daily can stop nearly any digestive complaint—gas, bloating, constipation, indigestion—and strengthen your immune system. But only IF they reach every part of your intestinal tract. Most don't. My PearlBiotic Spheres use breakthrough extended release BIO-tract® technology to guarantee the delivery of 2 billion probiotics throughout your digestive system.
New extended release BIO-tract technology uses a special gel coating that's activated once you swallow the small tablet. The coating protects the probiotics from being destroyed by the harsh, acidic environment of your stomach. Once the tablet moves through your stomach and enters your small intestine, it begins releasing the probiotics.
As the PearlBiotic Sphere continues through your system, it releases probiotics the whole way—including along your entire large intestine. Depending on your digestive system, the tablet can take up to eight hours to work its way through your system, releasing probiotics the whole time.
Not only do you get full coverage, this slow extended release is extremely gentle on your system. Taking PearlBiotic Spheres daily guarantees better digestion, less gas, and greater regularity—all day and all night.
BIO-tract also allowed me to give you 2 billion probiotics in just one small, round, easy-to-swallow tablet a day. The 2 billion probiotics consist of seven advanced probiotic strains that reflect the newest research.
One strain, L. fermentum, releases two powerful antioxidants right into your digestive tract. The antioxidants instantly neutralize gas-inducing toxins the second they're produced during digestion. A second strain, L. plantarum, forms hydrogen peroxide. Hydrogen peroxide creates a hostile environment where bad bacteria can't survive.
I also included strains that protect against occasional diarrhea and promote urinary and vaginal health. All seven strains of health-boosting probiotics in my PearlBiotic Spheres crowd out bad bacteria, improve your digestion, and support a healthy immune system.
PearlBiotic Spheres help to:
- Stop gas and bloating, before trouble starts
- Make it impossible for bad bacteria to "stick around"
- Promote lactose digestion
- Combat traveler's diarrhea
- Promote regularity
- Strengthen your immune system
- Maintain women's vaginal and urinary health
