The Canisius baseball team overcame a 10-0 deficit and rallied to defeat the University at Buffalo 12-11 at the Demske Sports Complex on Tuesday afternoon. The Golden Griffins improve to 15-8 overall and extend their winning streak to five games.
Canisius posted double-digit hits for the 16th time this season, with junior Connor Panas and freshmen Jake Lumley and Christ Conley each recording multi-hit games. Sophomore Anthony Massicci was 1-for-1 with two runs scored out of the leadoff spot and tied a program record with four walks.
Buffalo (10-8) scored the first 10 runs of the game, including eight runs in the fourth inning against three Canisius pitchers. The Bulls sent 14 batters to the plate in the inning and scored those eight runs on just five hits by taking advantage of two walks, two HBP, three wild pitches and a passed ball on a strikeout to start the inning.
Canisius chipped away at the lead by scoring 12 runs during the next four innings. The rally started in the fourth on a walk to junior Jesse Puscheck. After singles from Panas and senior Shane Zimmer loaded the bases, an RBI groundout from senior Jesse Kelso got the Griffs on the board. Conley followed with an RBI single to make it 10-2. The freshman moved to second base on a wild pitch, and Zimmer scored when the throw went into center field to cut the deficit to seven runs.
Puscheck led off the fifth with a double and after a walk to Panas, Zimmer hit a grounder to third base. Puscheck was retired but the throw across the diamond to attempt the double play went out of play to put runners at second and third. Panas would score on a wild pitch and another RBI groundout from Kelso made it 10-5.
Canisius came right back in the sixth, with Massicci drawing a one-out walk and advancing to second on a failed pickoff attempt. Lumley singled up the middle to score the sophomore. Luppens followed with a fly ball that the right fielder couldn't complete the running catch as the wind blew the ball toward the right-field line. A two-out, ground-rule double from junior Connor Panas made it 10-8.
After Buffalo scored a run in the top of the seventh to extend its lead to three runs, Conley started the go-ahead rally in the seventh with a one-out single off the plate, and sophomore Brett Siddall followed with a double to get two runners into scoring position. Massicci sent an RBI single to left and took a wide turn at first base, with the throw by the first baseman after the cutoff going wide of the bag and scoring Siddall and sending Massicci to third. Lumley went the other way and dropped a double in shallow left field to tie the game. Lumley moved to third base on a fly ball and would score on a wild pitch to give Canisius its first lead of the game.
Freshman Josh Shepley started for the Griffs and allowed five runs (four earned) in three innings while striking out four. The trio of juniors Tyler Vavra, Brandon Bielecki (2-1) and Eric Stolzenburg combined to allow one run in the final five innings. Vavra shifted the momentum on the mound by throwing not allowing a run in the fifth and sixth innings. Stolzenburg picked up his first save of the season by striking out five of the seven batters he faced in the final two innings.
Canisius wraps up its eight-game homestand this weekend with a three-game series against conference foe Manhattan. First pitch for Saturday's doubleheader is set for noon.
Game Notes: Canisius rallied from a 10-run deficit for the first time in the last 14 seasons… Canisius has a winning streak of five games or longer for the 17th time since the start of the 2008 season… Canisius defeated Buffalo for the 14th time in the last 18 meetings… Canisius improved to 3-1 this season in one-run games and is 14-4 in one-run games during the past two seasons… Massicci became the seventh player in program history with four walks in a game. Massicci also now has a seven-game hitting streak… Lumley has 14 hits in his last seven starts… Luppens and Panas each extended their hitting streaks to six games while Puscheck extended his on-base streak to 25 games… Stolzenburg has struck out nine batters in his last five innings pitched… Canisius has a .986 fielding percentage during the last six games.

Beavs Blanked in Civil War Opener
The University of Oregon won the first game of the crucial 3-game series in Eugene 3-0 over Oregon State. Tommy Thorpe allowed only two hits in 8-plus innings and Jimmie Sherfy survived a shaky ninth inning to earn his school-record 20th save of the season.
Oregon State managed only two infield singles, and the Beavers left the bases loaded in the ninth while suffering the loss that dropped them back into a first-place tie in the Pac-12. Both Oregon and Oregon State are now 20-5 in the conference. The Ducks are 43-11 overall. The Beavers are 41-9.
The second game of the 3-game series will be played Saturday at 2pm. Radio coverage begins at 1:30pm on Fox Sports Radio 620 in Portland.
The Beavers will play the Ducks in a non-conference game Tuesday in Corvallis.

Hi all!
I have been practising meditation (anapanasati and vipassana) everyday for the past few weeks.
Recently I have a new job I am starting and want to know if practising these two forms of meditation and mindfulness in my everyday life is mostly what I can do to ensure that I eventually reduce my anxiety.
Is there anything more I can be doing?

Placing the correct size rug in your space is as important as choosing the right color or pattern. A rug that it is too small will shift the balance of the room unfavorably. A rug that is too big, especially in open floor plans, may put the area designations off. There are a few rules of thumb, but a picture says it better.

Are you taking her out to places like home depot, sitting on the bench at the grocery store, leaving the house to people watch?
I put Venus in a fold up shopping cart and wheeled her around. People asked me some weird questions but I had to walk my big male. Venus would scream if I left her home so she rolled around the neighborhood in a cart.

Hopefully someone with more GSD specific experience will chime in soon. Here's what I think- she's nipping b/c that's what they do. Not b/c she's 'mad' at you for crating her. She just has lots of energy that needs to be spent. You have to find ways to direct her energy like playing fetch, or training. Really engage her and give her something to do. You can't just put them outside and expect them to burn off their energy. She comes in and goes nuts b/c she wants YOU and wants to play with YOU.
As far as being the pack leader- that is an essence that you project. It's not something the dog will just 'do.' I am an assertive and authoritative person, so that comes naturally to me. I stay several steps ahead of my dogs instead of just responding to what they're doing in a given moment. I have a plan in mind all the time, I think out what we're about to do and what I want them to do. For example: If we're about to go for a car ride, I think about where all we have to go, what I want them to do in the car and where I want them to sit in the car before we even get IN the car. Before I even let them know we're going out, I have it mapped out. Sure, things go awry sometimes and I have to make adjustments but it's easier b/c I have a plan. I have a particularly difficult Chi that constantly tries to get away with doing whatever he wants and not listening. I have to stay two steps ahead of him. It is exhausting at times, but it is the only way.
My point is that you have to decide that you are the leader and be the leader. You can't just react when things go off track, you have to create the track and keep them on it. I hope that helps, and I hope more advice comes your way Good luck!
|She sleeps in the crate at night I put her in there when we go to shower and when we leave. We put in squeak toys and always chew bones and toys because I know she is teething! I think It may have something to do with the fact that she doesn't see me as her pack leader. Do you know anything about that?
|Titan new most basic commands, at 8 weeks.. so you definitely can start training at this age about the laying in the grass.. probably just her curiosity and then wanting to come in and expend energy. Ha. Also with the crate.. do you only put her in there when you go somewhere and how do you get her in there and do you put anything in there with her ever like a chew?
|Yeah my dog is trained to sit and usually does expecting a treat of course but she just gets very rowdy! She can sit and comes when called and we do off leash training at the dog park with and without other dogs she does pretty good and comes when called but no matter what I do I cant get the puppy nipping to stop it hurts too because she is so strong. We have a crate for when we are gone but she gets so rebellious once we let her out because she is mad we put her in there in the first place. also a weird thing she does is she lays in the grass outside for hours refusing to walk just people watching then comes inside to run circles...
|A girl and her dog
Get a crate/kennel. She is not too young to train. Basic obedience can be taught as young as 4-6 weeks. You should already be working with her for 'sit' and 'down'. I have a Chi and a gs/mix and both were taught sit/down by 8 weeks. The gs/mix is now 4m and can sit, stay, down, turn circles, and be brought out off-leash with good recall. So can the Chi.
You're letting your pup get away with too much. I know I'm being blunt, but there's no other way to put it.
If you do nothing else today, get a crate!! Use it! Get two, one for the bedroom and one for the general area of the house. but get at least ONE today and use it.
Puppy to young for training
I can not wait for my 3 month old to be 6 months and old enough to start her training school!!! I took her to the dog park for 2 hours yesterday in hopes to tire her out for the 3 rainy days we are about to have. She was still up all night!! And destroyed my glasses and bit my nose and broke skin. She has also made the whole she has started under our bed much bigger. I don't know what to do with her I don't think my skin and furniture can take much more of this abuse! Any suggestions?

|Source Naturals
|Product Type
Source Naturals was created in 1982 by C.E.O Ira Goldberg to support each individual's potential to enjoy optimal health. At that time, the kind of nutritional formulations he envisioned – for the maintenance of well-being and the enhancement of life – simply didn't exist. The idea of combining many nutrients, herbs and nutraceuticals in one formulation, though common today, was then a rarity. Source Naturals pioneered the concept with Wellness Formula®, now the industry's #1 immune support product.
Source Naturals subsequently introduced numerous award-winning formulas, recognized for their excellence in independent surveys and nutritional analyses. In addition to Wellness, these award-winners include Life Force Multiple™, Mega-Kid Multiple™, Inflama-Rest™, the Skin Eternal™ line, Higher Mind™, Essential Enzymes™, Male Response™, and more.
Source Naturals' comprehensive Bio-Aligned Formulas™ help bring the power of alignment to your body. When formulating, we evaluate the underlying causes of system imbalances, and then provide targeted nutrition to interdependent body systems. Our line of more than 600 products also includes well-researched, single entity nutrients in their highest quality and most bioavailable forms.
Our nutritional supplements are at the leading edge of today's Wellness Revolution. This transformation in health consciousness also includes new perspectives in diet, lifestyle, emotional and spiritual development, and complementary health care. Source Naturals Strategy for WellnessSM is to provide education that empowers individuals to take responsibility for their health, rather than relying solely on outside medical authority. The result is people who are more productive and fulfilled, and a world that is stronger and healthier.

The people behind the "Mormon Girls" Twitter feed have made a video poking fun at the, um, shall we say unique, way people in Utah name their daughters.
The YouTube video, posted Friday, starts with a young woman (Chelsea Wilson) giving her name as Aunistee (pronounced "honesty"), from Pleasant Grove. She and another woman (Elisabeth Evans) then take turns reeling off a litany of imaginitively spelled and pronounced names and all, they claim, are 100-percent real.
UPDATE: Some background information on our filmmakers: Chelsea Wilson is a self-proclaimed "BYU baby," born in Provo and educated in St. George (with a long stint in Georgia in between). She and Evans, who's from Ohio, became friends at the University of Michigan, both studying musical theater. Evans is a senior there, while Wilson graduated last May and is now an actor and voice teacher in New York.
Writes Wilson: "My mom, aunt, Elisabeth, and I LOVE collecting horrible names, so we've always wanted to do some kind of video about it, exposing this ridiculous element of Utah culture."
Their previous video, "Things Mormon Girls Say," has had 280,000 views on YouTube and the new one already has 30,000-plus in just a few days.

Puukohola Heiau National Historic Site, Hawaii Island
Puukohola Heiau National Historic Site
- Name: Puukohola Heiau National Historic Site
- What: One of the largest and last heiau built in Hawaii
- Where: On the Kohala Coast, one mile south of Kawaihae Harbor
- More Info: (808) 882-7218,http://www.nps.gov/puhe/index.htm
The majestic, stone Puukohola Heiau can be seen off the road, just north of the resorts of the Kohala Coast. This National Historic Site is home to one of the largest restored heiau (temple) in Hawaii and is part of the National Park System. Heiau were sacred places of worship for Native Hawaiians, and Puukohola Heiau was a site built to fulfill a historic prophecy.
North Kohala born Kamehameha the Great was advised by his kahuna (priest) to build and dedicate Puukohola Heiau to the war god Kukailimoku to help in his efforts to unite the Hawaiian Islands. The fortress-like heiau was constructed overlooking the Kohala coast between 1790 and 1791. King Kamehameha ultimately fulfilled the kahuna's prophecy when he united the Hawaiian Islands in 1810.
This massive stone temple was built without the use of mortar. It is also believed that the lava rocks used to build the structure were passed hand-by-hand in a human chain all the way from Pololu Valley, some 25 miles away. The 224 by 100 foot structure is surrounded by 16-20 foot high walls and has been carefully preserved and restored. It is believed to be one of the last sacred structures built in the Hawaiian Islands before western influence. A new Visitor Center features videos, fascinating exhibits and a small museum. Puukohola, which means "hill of the whale" in Hawaiian, is also a scenic spot to look for humpback whales off the Kohala Coast during the winter and spring months.
Take a walking tour of the park to discover even more historic places within this site. You'll find the ruins of Mailekeini Heiau (built in the 1500's), Hale o Kapuni (a submerged heiau dedicated to the shark gods) and the homestead of John Young, a stranded British sailor who became a valuable aid to King Kamehameha I, which is also part of the grounds. Take a visit to Puukohola Heiau and step back in time on Hawaii Island.

Nick Haines welcomes Tavis Smiley and Peter Yelorda to The Local Show to discuss the opening of the America I AM: The African American Imprint exhibit at Union Station. The exhibit will be on display from October 22 through January 8, 2012.
Here's Tavis Smiley discussing America I Am before its opening in Los Angeles:
America I AM: The African American Imprint is a four-year touring museum exhibition that celebrates nearly 500 years of African American contributions to this country.
America I AM provides an opportunity for people from all walks of life to explore this uniquely American story. With the nation's first African American president, America I AM endeavors to bring together Americans of all backgrounds to achieve a greater understanding of their shared culture and history.
Scholar W.E.B. Du Bois once wrote, "Would America have been America without her Negro people?"
To examine the answer to that question, AMERICA I AM: The African American Imprint is mounted as the broadest museum exhibition of its kind. An assembly of poignant artifacts representing nearly 500 years of American history, the exhibition will convey and celebrate the undeniable imprint African Americans have had on the country and the world.
Covering history from the arrival of Africans to the present day, the exhibition presents a collection of pivotal moments of courage, conviction, and creativity that have shaped the culture and society in which we live today in this nation and around the world.
The exhibition examines four themes in particular: economic, socio-political, cultural, and spiritual impact on America. These themes serve as recurring touch points throughout the galleries, as visitors discover how our experience as Americans has been shaped by African Americans throughout history.
The 15,000 square-foot exhibition is divided into twelve galleries, leading visitors through time on a journey from struggle to triumph.
Featuring more than 200 artifacts culled from every period of U.S. history, the exhibition includes objects, texts, religion, music, narration, and media. An interactive component of the exhibition allows visitors to leave their own video "imprints," and this collection will grow throughout the life of the exhibition with the potential to become the largest recorded oral history project in U.S. history.

Former Campbell standout David Mathis qualified for the U.S. Open on Monday at Columbus, Ohio. One day after tying for 25th place at the Memorial, the Raleigh resident shot three-under-par 71-68 and tied for third at the USGA qualifier where the top 16 players earned a trip to next week's event.
Mathis moved up 12 places to 95th in the PGA Tour FedEx Cup standings after producing his sixth top-25 showing in 18 events this year. Entering this week's FedEx St. Jude Classic at TPC Southwind in Memphis, Mathis has collected $564,940 in prize money.
His best showing of the year came at the Zurich Classic of New Orleans, where he tied for 10th and earned $160,000.
In last year's St. Jude Classic, Mathis was the first round leader and tied for 13th after shooting 65-72-72-66. This year's event runs Thursday through Sunday and holds a $5.6 million purse.
The U.S. Open will be held June 14-17 at the Olympic Club in San Francisco.
A native of Winston-Salem and Raleigh resident, Mathis led the Camels to consecutive Big South Conference titles in 1993 and 1994.
Former Camel Brad Fritsch, who plays on the Nationwide Tour, finished 16th in the USGA qualifier at Rockville, Md., where the top seven golfers advanced to the Open.

2011 NFL Draft Prospect Scouting Report:
Rahim Moore, FS, UCLA
The accolades continued heading into 2010. However, Moore would have a bigger challenge on his hands as the UCLA defense was decimated by graduation. Moore has become a leader on the field and through seven games ranks third on the team in tackles and has one of the team's three interceptions so far in the season. The absence of a consistent pass rush has certainly diminished Moore's effectiveness this year. He has even practiced some at the corner position due to a lack of other options.
Moore has enough size and strength to play safety in the NFL, but his ability to also play corner is not a bad thing. If things keep going as they are, Moore's stock will likely drop a little bit, but he will be good in preseason workouts and should sneak into the first round if he opts to go pro early.
3/15 Update: Moore's stock is holding pretty steady as a second round selection. He was fast and athletic at the NFL combine as everybody expected. The problem remains his inconsistent tackling. That is why many consider him a better corner than safety, but he may have trouble making that switch anyway. Making a switch to corner could take some time and probably more time than an NFL team is willing to take with a second round pick. Moore is still the best free safety in this draft class and should be taken in the second round.

Hey folks,
I've seen a couple of threads about Jango's helmet skirt thing, so I put together this template. It's scaled to fit the SgtFang Boba helmet I have, but can easily be scaled for other helmets. Two page PDF attached, with a PNG preview.
Hey folks,
I've seen a couple of threads about Jango's helmet skirt thing, so I put together this template. It's scaled to fit the SgtFang Boba helmet I have, but can easily be scaled for other helmets. Two page PDF attached, with a PNG preview.
is the helmet skirt necessary? i can see me being miserable in my helmet having my fresh air flow all blocked off with that.
Necessary to get into the 501st? To survive in outer space? To include that detail from the screen-used helmet? I believe it's a totally optional accessory, but someone was asking about it in another thread, so here it is.
Thank you sir!! I've been pondering on making a detachable gasket for some time but had no idea as to where to start. I've really been wanting one for bright outdoor events, and now I can have one.
Fantastic, Rich! We are going to need one of these for the Jango Bust! This will be very helpful!
This'll hide my double chins
Any good places where to purchase the leather fabric?
Hey guys,
Hubby wanted me to check this out for his Jango build to see if I could make it. Now I love the template and it gives me a great base to work on but looking at the picture of the one in the helmet.. that is the actual museum one right?.. I can't be sure but it looks like there are seams -between- each section. It would be logical to split them up like that so that when you're creating the casing for the cord that goes around the inner circle and folding in the seam allowances on the sides that you don't get too much puckering between each part. Which brings me to 'what material was used?' I'm guessing probably a light weight garment leather since something thicker would be a pain to fold over and as I'm discovering with my latest project.. pleather and my sewing machine don't mix too well. Okay, I guess I've rambled enough and its time to go check the local leather store. Just thought I'd see what you guys thought of my idea about splitting up the sections.
aka LadyHunter
yeah, light weight leather... no thicker than about 2.5 Oz... I just sold some to Chucko that was perfect for the gaskets, but I did not have time to make them
I'm working on some mock ups right now we'll see.
did you get the leather?
yep I posted in the cargo hold the other day thanks again
actually I do Not beleive it is Mandatory on the 501st CRL! just a suggested mod.

Paging Steve Doocy: Reagan Did Not Pass "Permanent Tax Cuts" -- He Raised Taxes
Right-wing media often turn [1] to their favorite idol [2], Ronald Reagan, to put a stamp [3] of approval on an idea. But Fox & Friends co-host Steve Doocy made an interesting claim today, predicting that Obama's "temporary targeted policies" like "another stimulus, essentially, with his jobs [bill]" would not work and suggested he should emulate Reagan's "permanent tax cuts." This is more than a little misleading, as Reagan actually raised taxes multiple times -- and history shows there is no such thing as a "permanent tax cut" in the United States of America.
Doocy made his claim during a discussion of President Obama's jobs bill with guest Dick Morris. He kicked off the segment by saying, "The stimulus was supposed to create a ton of jobs, but with unemployment at 9.1 percent and, perhaps, rising, critics say it was nothing more than a Washington jobs killer." Later, hyping an op-ed from fellow News Corporation outlet The Wall Street Journal, Doocy said:
DOOCY: Well, one of the things [Obama] wants to do, Dick, is he wants another stimulus, essentially, with his jobs, saying it really is a stimulus. But there was an item in The Wall Street Journal yesterday that talked about how temporary targeted policies, a lot of politicians think, this is going to be good for me and going to get me re-elected. It didn't work for Gerald Ford. It didn't work for Jimmy Carter. Ronald Reagan wouldn't do it. Instead, he had permanent tax cuts and that worked for him.
First of all, the stimulus was not a "job killer," no matter [4] how many [5] times Fox [6] relentlessly repeats [7] this lie [8]. Experts have agreed that the stimulus raised employment [4] by 1.2 to 3.3 million and boosted GDP [4] by 1.8 to 2.7 percent.
And Doocy's claim that Reagan had "permanent tax cuts" is flat out false. Reagan indeed cut taxes significantly in 1981 and again in 1986. However, as CNNMoney.com reported [9], two bills Reagan signed in 1982 and 1984 together "constituted the biggest tax increase ever enacted during peacetime," according to tax historian Joseph Thorndike. The CNNMoney.com article explains:
Soon after taking office in 1981, Reagan signed into law one of the largest tax cuts in the postwar period.
In 1986, Reagan lowered individual income tax rates again, this time in landmark tax reform legislation.
As a result of the 1981 and 1986 bills, the top income tax rate was slashed from 70% to 28%.
Despite the aggressive tax cutting, Reagan couldn't ignore the budget deficit, which was burgeoning.
After Reagan's first year in office, the annual deficit was 2.6% of gross domestic product. But it hit a high of 6% in 1983, stayed in the 5% range for the next three years, and fell to 3.1% by 1988. (By comparison, this year it's projected to be 9% but is expected to drop considerably thereafter.)
So, despite his public opposition to higher taxes, Reagan ended up signing off on several measures intended to raise more revenue.
"Reagan was certainly a tax cutter legislatively, emotionally and ideologically. But for a variety of political reasons, it was hard for him to ignore the cost of his tax cuts," said tax historian Joseph Thorndike.
Two bills passed in 1982 and 1984 together "constituted the biggest tax increase ever enacted during peacetime," Thorndike said.
The bills didn't raise more revenue by hiking individual income tax rates though. Instead they did it largely through making it tougher to evade taxes, and through "base broadening" -- that is, reducing various federal tax breaks [10] and closing tax loopholes.
The article goes on to say that there "were other notable tax increases under Reagan," including "accelerat[ing] an increase in the payroll tax rate" in 1983 and tax reform in 1986 that further reduced tax breaks.
Most important, there is no such thing as "permanent tax cuts." This chart [11] from the Tax Policy Center shows, for example, how often the top marginal tax rate has changed since 1913: a total of 35 times. And, as illustrated above, tax rates certainly didn't stay the same throughout Reagan's presidency. In fact, several times, they went up, no matter how much Steve Doocy tries to pretend otherwise.

Arsenal will put their "maximum effort" into this season's FA Cup campaign, according to Arsène Wenger.
The Gunners travel to the Liberty Stadium to face Swansea City in a challenging third-round tie on Sunday afternoon.
Wenger is looking forward to taking part in the competition once again, and is confident about his side's chances of silverware.
"We play at Swansea; it's a difficult tie, but of course we want to come out on top," he said. "The FA Cup is something special because it is exciting, it is watched all over the world.
"It has a special history in England and I have always respected that. I am always sad when we don't win it or when we go out. We will put our maximum effort in on Sunday to win the game.
"It's the first round we come in, so people will speculate a lot about who will win it in the end. To have a chance to do that, you just need to get through the first round [you take part in]."
After a busy Christmas schedule Wenger could make changes on Sunday, but he insists he will field a strong side at the Liberty Stadium.
"I just play the team that I think has the best chance of winning the game, without considering any rotational desire, unless I think one or two players need a breather," he said. "It will not be based on the fact that it's purely rotational."

Parma celebrates Polish heritage
(Parma) - The 65th annual Polish Constitution Day parade stepped off in Parma Sunday afternoon. Marches started at the Parma Circle and made their way north on Ridge Road to Snow Road.
Among those marching the parade were Mayor Tim DeGeeter, and Congresswoman Marcy Kaptur, both have Polish ancestry.
New Cleveland Browns Coach Rob Chudzinski was supposed to walk in the parade, but was policed by team mascot Chomps.
This was the 4 year in a row that Parma hosted the parade which celebrates the signing of the Polish Constitution on May 3, 1791, which is modeled after the U.S. Constitution.
Mayor Tim DeGeeter, Chomps, Congresswoman Marcy Kaptur.
Poland was also instrumental in the assisting the U.S. revolution, and was the first nation in Europe to outlaw slavery.
An after-party celebration was held near the Unity Catholic Federal Credit Union, with music food, and entertainment.

Junior Jimmy Luppens was named the Metro Atlantic Athletic Conference Player of the Week on Monday, while freshman Brett Siddall was named the MAAC Rookie of the Week. Luppens is named Player of the Week for the second time in his career while Siddall earns the award for the second time this season.
Luppens hit .579 (11-for-19) with three home runs and 13 RBI in the four-game sweep at Ohio University. Luppens' best performance came in a 16-8 win in game three of the series when the Wading River, N.Y. native went 3-for-5 with three home runs and eight RBI, including a three-run homer in the top of the ninth that broke an 8-8 tie. Luppens also had the game-winning RBI in game two, with his RBI single in the top of the eighth putting Canisius up 8-7. The 5-foot-11 junior had multiple hits in each game and extended his hitting streak to 19 games, dating back to last season.
Luppens leads the MAAC in batting average (.481) and RBI (20) and is tied for the MAAC lead in home runs (three). Luppens also was named the MAAC Player of the Week during his sophomore season on April 2.
Siddall led the Canisius offense with a .615 batting average (8-for-13) in the four-game sweep of Ohio University. The 6-foot freshman also recorded six RBI and scored three runs on the weekend. Siddall recorded a hit in all four games, including two three-hit performances and going 2-for-2 in his two pinch-hit appearances.
Luppens gives Canisius the MAAC Player of the Week for the second consecutive week with junior Jesse Kelso claiming the award last week. Siddall was also named the MAAC Rookie of the Week on March 4.Canisius (14-5), winners in nine of its last 10 games, opens MAAC play against Saint Peter's this weekend at the Demske Sports Complex. The three-game series starts with a doubleheader on Saturday, with first pitch set for 11 a.m.

First of all, all of this information is based on other posts here and across other boards, if I'm missing anything don't be afraid to tell me :P
Attack Power (AP) - increases Physical Attack Damage
Dexterity (DX) - increases Physical Attack Speed; the lower the DX, the faster you attack
Accuracy (AC) - increases Physical Attack Hit Rate; increases Gun Attack Damage
Magic Attack Power (MA) - increases Magical Attack Damage
Magic/Mana Point (MP) - increases Maximum Mana Points
Magic Defense Power (MD) - decreases Magic Attack Damage recieved
Weight Capacity (WT) - increases amount of weight your character can hold; increases bank storage weight capacity
Detection Ability (DA) - increases Sense's Throw Damage; increases the chances of getting a LightBulb Bubble or Squiggle Bubble before drilling to conserve drill durability; increase success chance for MiniCompounding (Item Compounding from Compounder Paul);
Luck (LK) - increases Critical Hit Rate; increases Gun and Magic Accuracy (rumor: Sense's Throw Accuracy); increases better bonus growth for Mature Compounding (equipment growth synthesis); does NOT increase chances of finding better items underground or from monsters. Increases chance to "block" normal attacks, critical hits, and magic attacks
Health/Hit Point (HP) - increases Maxmimum Health Points
Physical Defense Power (DP) - decreases Physical Damage recieved
Hit Evasion (HV) - increases Physical Dodge Rate; decreases Gun Damage recieved
Each type (charm, magic etc) has 2 characters, one male and one female.
Power Type: Buffalo and Bunny
Magic Type: Dragon and Sheep
Sense Type: Lion and Fox
Charm Type: Raccoon and Cat
Power/Charm Types rely on AC for Accuracy
Magic Types rely on LK for Accuracy
Gun Types (Lions) rely on AC and LK for Accuracy
Shuriken Throws (Fox) rely on DA and LK for Accuracy
Card Throws (Raccoon) rely on AC and LK for Accuracy
Dying in this game isn't so bad, yes you lose something like 0.3% xp, HOWEVER you lose any monster quest you were doing at the time! Which means you must finish a monster quest without dying (the hidden catch)
You can't drink a potion while casting a spell, so watch out.
When the screen is crowded with shops and chatrooms, it becomes hard to navigate, hold space bar to temporarily remove them from your screen.
Right click a monster to see its level, hold alt to see the levels of all monsters within your night-time visual range, also all items in this range will ahve their names displayed too (items in future release)
Some rather important Trickster Online shortcuts:
V - myview (status screen)
C - my cards (separate from items)
I - Item Inventory
E - Equipment
S - Skills
Q - Quests
Right click yourself to open up a set of things you can do, including broadcast, call a GM (119 is the emergency number in asian countries), and opening your options screen (in case you were wondering where that was)
Hit escape to switch characters, switch servers, or exit the game
your hotkey window has 3 spell sets, click the number to switch between them, or hit the number on your qwerty keyboard (not the numpad....well it works but its so far away)
Your hotkey window has 4 shapes, 2 long 1x8 and 2 rectangular 2x4
To use a hotkey, hit its coresponding F-key
TricksterOnline's full screen does not support wide screen, so widescreen users should just keep it on windowed mode.
To swap the music in TricksterOnline with your own, first make a backup of the original file (or don't), then place the music file (.mp3) you want into the music folder and rename it to look like the old file.
In windowed mode, your mouse cursor, while TO is the active window, will not ever leave the TO window, to do something in the background on your desktop, alt-tab first
Windows shortcuts like Alt-F4, Alt-Q, Ctrl-Alt-Del, Alt-tab, Windows Key, all work the way they are expected while the game is the active window
TO works on a grid map system, meaning there is an invisible grid on the ground, your character is considered to occupy one tile when not moving. Spell/Skill ranges are based on this grid.
On 1024x768 mode, from your character to the edge of the screen is approximately 16tiles.
At night time, your visual range is 5 tiles horizontally and 7 tiles vertically
One day cycle is approximately one hour?
Your pet is more of an equipment item that appears on your character, for all intents and purposes, it doesn't actually do anything in terms of on screen effects (like fighting, or casting a buff)
Your pet may or maynot be on the same square as you, depending on how you walked to your current square.
Your pet will walk at the same speed as you and take the same route as you when you walk.
Your pet will not start walking until you are 3 tiles away from it.
Monster quests are given to you based on your current base level, regardless of type of quest (xp or TMxp), you may repeat any given monster quest 25 times. Dying or failing a monster quest does not increment that amount, only full completions will increase it.
Three types of monster quests exist, one for XP, killing X number of a monster in Y minutes, one for TMxp, killing X number of a monster in Y minutes, and one for (sometimes) both xp and TMxp, where you kill a specific rare monster just once in a relative short amount of time (10 minutes)
Monster quests' timers begin the second you accept the quest, and you must complete the quest during that time without dying. Dying after you complete it (or running out of time) still allows you to recieve the rewards (a good way to get back to the npc...)
When you complete a monster quest, you'll hear some bells notifying you of that fact.
Certain quests and monsters will drop coins, these are usable items that you double click to increase your money by that amount automatically. The largest coin is a 500g coin.
Coins have weight, so use them.
The best potions possible can only be crafted.
Your armors and weapons can be refined like in most korean mmorpgs to a max of +10, failure will result in the item breaking.
Your armors may be upgraded with growth synthesis, a quest giver will have you get a specific number of items and when you retrieve them, he will give your armor a bonus stat, the amount it increases by is based on your luck stat. This upgrade always succeeds.
EXP and how to make the most of it
Here are the rules of EXP in TO:
-EXP is given on EVERY hit to a monster.
-EXP given is directly related to the amount of Damage you deal to the monster.
-If u overkill using a spell or skill, you will only gain the EXP according to the amount of HP left on the monster.
Case 1:
A dragon's Mana Arrow shoot for 683 on Pochi, a lvl30 monster with 1325 HP. He will need 2 shots of MA to kill Pochi. Now lets look at his exp gained.
After 1st casting of MA for 683 dmg, the dragon earned 0.5% exp. On 2nd casting, he earned 0.5% exp too. In total, Pochi will worth 1% exp per kill.
Case 2:
Now, another Dragon decides to train on Pochi. However, his MA dmg is 740. He still need 2 shots of MA to kill Pochi though...
On 1st casting of MA for 740 dmg, he earned 0.6% exp. But on 2nd casting, he only earned 0.4% exp. Total exp worth from Pochi would be 1%
The net exp earned from Pochi would be the same. However, for the 2nd Dragon's case, the exp earned does not reflect his damage potential, which in turn translate to exp potential.
However, the game is not as simple as you think. Heres the next Leveling process to worry about...
Here are the rules of how TMexp is earned in TO:
-It is not gained with every hit or damage done to the monster.
-You ONLY gain TMexp after killing a Monster, Drilling that revealed an item or Turning in a quest. [I saw somewhere in Chinese forums that Healing party mates help to earn TMexp too. Wonder if it is true..] HOWEVER! If your party member hits the monster first and you kill it, he takes the TMP as long as he has the green arrow. If Share EXP is ON, then the TMP will be distributed to the party members equally reguardless of who killed the monster.
Naturally alot would say that TMexp will come naturally with killing monsters to level up. However, by pure leveling on monster will result in changing to 2nd Job later than lv60. Thus, it is advisable to do all the available quests that gives TMexp to boost your TM level if you are bored of Drilling all day long.
Drilling deep isn't always the best choice. There are high stage drills that gives off better EXP/TMP with less time to drill.
Now that second job is here, heres what you need to know!
Second Job Requirments for English Trickster Online is LV 50, TM LV 40. Yes, that means everybody who thought it was lvl 60, TM 50 was wrong =/ thats the chinese versions requirments.
There we go, lots of info taken from different sources (mwehehehhe) on Trickster, hope this helps some people that are new!

I have a good friend who recieved an email supposedly from the FBI and sid it had an arrest warrant.I know him well and it is not right for one.It said he needs to open it immediately.This has to be a scam or virusTHe sender tag looked something like this
FBIoffice @AOL
IT had nothing like an official look to it.I told him he is a sorry criminal as all he gets is an email,watch for a email from the SWAT team
Too funny! I doubt very much the FBI would email you and say they had a warrant.
Most likely they're phishing or opening the/an attachment will launch a virus.
And they have this whole .gov thing not AOL.
every time the fbi has wanted to talk to me, they do it in person.... i mean its why they buy all them black suits, black cars and nifty sunglasses.

Let's be honest... The path isn't always easy, especially for a lay person. When ever things look difficult, or I find myself dealing with doubt, I look at what the practice has done for me thus far. It's a good source of inspiration and confidence when life is wearing you down and the slow coming results of your practice are near and far between.
For me, the practice has made me utterly more honest. I find this honesty makes many things much simpler where they would have been much harder.
Share yours... Inspire yourself, inspire others!

Accompanied by a local trio, led by bassist Ramón Vázquez, Khan's noteworthy playing did not dwell on his best known fusionistic licks and entreaties when performing some Latinized materials; albeit ...even then... one's musical nature can't be denied. Khan's stringed patina, however, was most illuminating within a trio format whereupon mainstream jazz was featured. The guitarist mind remains as fertile as ever, his sound and tone was simply rock-solid and the audience was thrilled to have such an artist in their midst as they were captivated by his fingered prowess. Furthermore, some of the local students associated with the highly successful and beloved Berklee in Puerto Rico student big band were also present, as well as some of the members of the Berklee Professors Band such as bassist Oscar Stagnaro and percussionist Eguie Castrillo. Since this year Berklee in Puerto Rico ended up offering more than $97,000 in scholarships for local students to attend Berklee in Boston ...as part of a nine year investment of more than $500,000 in local musical talent... eager students where just eating up the chance ...their young age notwithstanding... of gaining any edge in their quest for such funds.
This year's festival opener, however, was a somewhat unexpected surprise. JerseyRican trombonist Jimmy Bosch led a salsa-jam band on June 3rd ...certainly not a jazz act... mostly composed of New York based musicians such as timbalero Nicky Marrero, bassist Rubén Rodr'-guez ...who also performed with the Jazz at Lincoln Center Afro-Latin Jazz Orchestra on June 6... and baritone sax and flautist Mauricio Smith, Jr., as well as some local talent ...such as trumpeter Angie Machado.
With the exception of "Vengo a cantar ...grittily and tastefully vocalized by Juan Rey Bayona... the rest of the material derived from Bosch's two recordings as a leader Salsa dura and Soneando trombón. "Otra oportunidad ...an anthem to the possibilities and consequences of positive personal change in one's life... was followed by "La cacharra ...an anthem to the well known frustrations experienced by all those who ever depended on a vehicle that repeatedly breaks down. The band was just getting warmed up and gelling into increasing heat, which became more evident ...even dominant... throughout the rest of the set. By the time Wayne Shorter's "Speak No Evil was performed, Bosch and company had an almost full-house audience at the amphitheater eating from their hands ...in spite of the fact that most in attendance were there to see Spyro Gyra.
Bosch's type of aggressive New York of salsa is sorely missed in the market today ...particularly in Puerto Rico itself... and it was rather difficult for all to sit and listen to what was highly danceable music. In fact, eventually everyone was up and shaking' their rears to a series of solos that ranged from able and somewhat accomplished, to outright brilliant ...particularly from Bosch, Rodr'-guez and Smith, Jr. The ensemble playing was increasingly tight as the performance progressed and one had the feeling that they were getting started just when they had to leave after a second encore.
Spyro Gyra, featuring drummer Ludwig Alfonso ...their newest member... were enthusiastically awaited and received. They certainly are not my cup of tea but ...both as a so-called critic and member of the audience... I owe them to take their obvious talent on their own terms rather than imposing unwarranted expectations, musical standards or mere matters of personal taste upon them. A musical group with such a proven musical and commercial track record simply can't be ignored without loosing much in the process. This was the first time I had the chance of seeing them live and they sure showed why they are rapidly approaching three decades of more than 100 performances a year. They seem to be cherished in Puerto Rico and the audience thoroughly enjoyed their performances.
Some of the material, such as bassist Scott Ambush's "Wiggle Room, guitarist Julio Fernández's "The Crossing, and Jay Beckenstein's "Soburg Sam, was from the latest release The Deep End. Keyboardist Tom Schuman obviously took pleasure in teasing everyone with some montuno piano figures in cuts such as "Calle Ocho ...named after the famed Miami street... as the rest of the group performed engaging solos and remarkably tight ensemble playing. Of course, Spyro Gyra also treated the audience with other compositions from their well-heeded and known repertoire ...such as "Walk To Walk, "Morning Dance and "Conversations.
As first experiences go, the group had a salutary and calming effect on me, while many people in the audience ...including three people sitting directly in front of the stage... were just having a funky time on their seats. Spyro Gyra's brand of jazz is not as smooth or popish as I expected, nor were they as engaging as I wished. Then again, who's going to argue with such a successful and talented bunch that managed to follow a hard-core salsa act with such remarkable results among several thousand in attendance?

Another News Outlet Publishes an Unflattering Bachmann Photo
posted at 4:43 pm on August 14, 2011 by Howard Portnoy
It is open season on media outlets publishing unflattering photos of GOP presidential hopeful and Iowa straw poll winner Michele Bachmann. The first salvo in the who-can-make-Bachmann-look-worse contest came from the left-leaning Newsweek, whose "intense" headshot of the attractive Minnesota congresswoman generated feedback last week.
This week's contender was shot by Toby Harnden of the generally rightwing English daily The Telegraph (h/t Mediaite). The most polite interpretation of the image is that it shows the candidate administering life support to a corndog. The least polite interpretation is that she is—well, suffice it to say this is a family publication.
The text, also the work of Harnden, is snarky and hostile:
On the eve of the Ames Straw Poll, the Republican candidates made a last push for votes at the Iowa State Fair in Des Moines—a huge spectacle in which cattle, pigs and horses are on display as well as politicians and Iowans queue to for fairground rides and some of the most unhealthy food on the planet (I was going to try the Fried Twinkies but the queue was, alas, too long).
Most unhealthy food on the planet? I would have thought that dubious honor belongs to Scotch pie, a British culinary invention in which minced beef and suet (aka, rendered beef fat) are encased in a pastry crust made with lard (aka pork fat).
Frances Martel at Mediaite believes there is something more insidious at work than merely portraying Bachmann in the least flattering light possible. And that is "a deliberate attempt to undermine the one characteristic Rep. Bachmann has that no one seems to disagree with: she's photogenic."
Martel speculates:
Then there's the sexist subtext here: would the Telegraph have run a similar photo of a presidential candidate consuming an obvious phallic symbol if said candidate were male? Phallic symbols make for good comedy, sure, but the Telegraph is not Mad Magazine, and there appears to be no intent at humor here, only degradation.
Phallic symbols make for good comedy? Maybe females of the species have much to teach us after all.

Technically, it's Yum! Brands. I know this because I read an article a while back about the genius executive who insisted on the exclamation point as part of a comprehensive rebranding scheme. That exclamation point is part of why he gets paid the big $$$. That being said, the Economist isn't having it: The exclamation mark: Yum! no more | The Economist
Jennings Trade Opens Door For Peyton Siva - Detroit Jock City - A Detroit Sports blog
We'll still need to use at least one of those spots for a replacement big man. Hopefully Siva gets the other.
Siva is officially a Piston today. Peyton Siva signs with Pistons - Detroit Bad Boys
Cool! I like the kid.
Joe freed up a spot for Siva.
I love the source: Peyton Siva reports that Peyton Siva has signed a contract with the Detroit Pistons, via his Instagram account
Great picture. I always think of Peyton Manning when I people write out his first name.
I keep calling him Silva. I'm not sure I knew what his first name was until the last 2 posts.
Siva Comes Out Ahead In Jennings Deal « Hang Time Blog | NBA.com
So far... 62 minutes of action 4 points (2-6 from 2 point range, 0-2 from deep, and 0-0 from the FT line) 6 assists 12 turnovers 10 personal fouls Needs D-league experience when we get Bynum and Chauncey back.
Yeah it will be awhile before we will be able to call the Palace > Peyton's Place...
I hope the kid is saving his money. He should thank Joe D for making sure he got a decent job paying about $500K ($300 after taxes) right out of college. He should be able to save about $200K this year, giving him enough money to start an IRA and put a down payment on his first home whenever he's ready to buy one before he either (a) heads overseas to earn $75K/yr playing ball, (b) heads off to the workforce, or (c) goes back to grad school; because (unfortunately) I don't think the kid has NBA talent.
I agree. He just seems really over-matched physically and athletically. He has a good head on his shoulders, but didn't win the genetic lottery well enough to stay. Even when he was able to drive and score last night it looked like he had to use 110% of his ability and get lucky. He made it though and can always tell his kids he was an NBAer.
He should be shooting, even though it will probably be at a low percentage... just in case he gets lucky. Without establishing his shot, he's not going to be able to feed the bigs like Bynum does.
In the NCAA championship game...he was 6-15 from the floor with 18 pts and 6 assists. Pretty much took control of the game midway through the second half scoring 6 straight points and feeding that 3pt shooter that buried the Wolverines. In other words another Mateen type championship effort that gets you drafted. Joe knew it was a project and Peyton Place is only getting the PT because we are short handed.
He has the advantage of being a lot taller than Bynum so maybe he should post up some of the smaller point guards.
Pepe Sanchez lasted for 3 years...
I think Siva has been overdribbling.
Separate names with a comma.

Hey! I am up the hill in Albion (50 minutes away for the rest of the nation). I just aquired a CZ97B on purpose and a Baby Eagle (CZ semi-clone?) on a whim.

Corsair Vengeance K70 Keyboard
-My Review: After a nights use, it goes without saying that transitioning from one keyboard to the next is not a simple task. Add on the fact that my own transition being between a dome membrane keyboard and a cherry red mechanical keyboard. So far, so good. The only problem being that I'm use to my old bulky G15 which featured macro keys on the left side. Because of said keys, I naturally used my pinky to feel up the edge of the keyboard to get a feel where I was if removed my hand. With the lack of these keys on the K70, I've managed to accidentally rest my hand a keyset to the right on a few occasions. But thankfully, I've slowly reprogrammed myself to feel for the WASD keys instead of the edge of the keyboard. Thanks to a wonderful set of replacement keys that came with the K70, I was able to change out my WASD with keys that feature a a mild texture as well as raised edges on the WAD keys that all slant inward towards the S key. Now, you can do the same with your 1-6 keys, but once locking down my position on the keyboard, I had no problem telling which number keys were which. Not to mention that if you do replace 1-6 with these replacement keys, the symbols for each are not present. I may add these just for looks, but right now, I'm just happy with my WASD using this setup. It's also good to note that these replacement keys are a deep red instead of black and on WASD, it looks pretty dang sexy. The cherry reds are fast and smooth, but sadly due to my many years of using a membrane keyboard, I'm slamming these things pretty hard, when reds take almost no force to actually press down on. Due to this, I'm making way more sound than I should and while I will surely get use to lightly pressing on these keys with time, I think I'll pick up some o-rings just to dampen the sound till then. But even with reduced sound, I do like the idea of shortening my key press with o-rings either way. The LED on the K70 is nice and bright and it boasts a total of 3 different illumination settings, including the option to turning them off entirely. The K70 also features personalizing which keys you would like to light up or shut off individually, which is nice if you're not using certain keys, such as the keypad. Of course like most gaming keyboards, the K70 does feature a gaming mode button which will disable the windows keys. Additionally, there are 5 media buttons to the top left as well as a scrolling volume control and they all work as intended. The black anodized brushed aluminum body is very nice to look at and makes it very clear that this keyboard is quite durable. Now the thing I like most about the K70 is the lack of, well, anything around the keys. Going from my G15 to this, I am ecstatic that I won't have such a hassle cleaning this thing up. It also helps that the keys themselves are easy to remove without the risk of breaking the plastic arms you'd find on dome keyboards. Now the one thing I do not like about the K70 is how low the removable rest is. Instead of being able to slide my thumb onto the spacebar like I could with my G15, I just end up ramming my thumb into the side. This is not even close to being a major issue and like the rest of the keyboard, I simply need to transition into the K70 with time. Now I should point out that the K70 does feature a pass through USB port on the back right next to a switch set for your polling rate. Because of this, the K70 actually takes up two USB ports if you plan on using that pass through, otherwise you'll just need to plug in one of the two USB, both being clearly marked as to which does what. One for the keyboard, one for the pass through. I should point out that this thing is very heavy but as far as dimensions go, it's nice and compact. Overall, I'm very happy with the K70 and would highly recommend it to anyone looking for a high end mechanical gaming keyboard. Even more so due to the fact that the K70 comes in 3 cherry types. So if red is not your thing, go for brown or blue. If macro keys are a must, Corsair does make a model similar to the K70, known as the K95. That model in particular featuring 18 additional keys. So yeah, the K70 is a fantastic keyboard well worth the 130 dollar price tag and I have no regrets replacing my G15 with it.
