The Creighton women's basketball team were held to its lowest point total of the season as the Jays fell to Indiana State, 58-41, on Friday, Feb. 8.
The loss dropped the Jays to 16-5 overall and 8-2 in the Missouri Valley Conference (MVC). Indiana State, meanwhile, moved to 13-8 on the season and 5-5 in the MVC.
Trailing 10-4 with 12:24 on the clock the Jays rattled off eight straight to take a 12-10 lead. JuniorJordan Garrison provided five quick points to start the rally, then freshman Marissa Janningconnected from long range to push Creighton to a 12-10 lead with 10:10 left on the clock.
Unfortunately the Jays did not hit another bucket the rest of the way, watching the Sycamores go on an 18-0 run. Just 10 seconds before the break, Janning ended the run with two free throws as Creighton trailed 28-14.
After posting its highest scoring half of the season in its last contest, the Jays hit a season low of 14 in a half on 4-of-26 from the field (15.4%) in the first half. Creighton misfired on its final 11 shots of the period.
The Sycamores continued to push their advantage in the opening moments of period number two, growing their lead to 18 at 34-16 with 17:28 remaining.
The mountain provide to high to hurdle for Creighton as the Bluejays got no closer than 10 in the final frame.
Creighton shot a season low 22.8% in the game (13-of-57), including 5-of-27 from beyond the arc (18.5%).
Janning led the Jays with 15 points, while junior McKenzie Fujan chipped in nine.
Indiana State had three players finish in double figures, led by 14 points from Racheal Mahan and Taylor Whitley. Mariana Laramie rounded out the Sycamores in double-figures with 10 points.
The Jays return to action on Sunday, Feb. 10 as Creighton heads to Normal, Ill. to face Illinois State at 2 p.m.

Dear Governor LePage,
So what, now you're a weatherman?
Here we are in the middle of the beginning of the end, with the July 1 deadline for passing a state budget just two weeks away, and you're going all meteorological on us.
"Right now … right now, it's this," you told WCSH's Don Carrigan just the other day. "There's a cloud of blind hatred coming from the third floor (of the State House) from a couple of people. And I don't play that kind of politics."
First, let me just say I have no idea how my friend Carrigan keeps managing to pull this off: He sticks the mike under your chin, you say something that sets two-thirds of your fellow Mainers' hair on fire and Carrigan dashes back to the studio with yet another 60 seconds of pure gold for what someday will be a "Bill Green's Maine" retrospective titled "Legend of the Blaine House Beast — The Maine Governor Who Growled."
But back to the cloud of blind hatred.
Now I'm no Joe Cupo, Governor, but I'm pretty darned sure that clouds form when hot air rises and runs into cooler air aloft, causing water vapor in the hot air to condense until it blocks out the sun and, in extreme cases, sends us all running for cover.
So, much as I hate to admit it, Big Guy, I think you might be onto something here.
For more than two years now, there's been all kinds of hot air swirling around the second floor of the State House, where you work when you're not holed up across the street in the Blaine House. Aim one of those thermal imaging cameras at your office and I guarantee it will light up like a Christmas tree.
Upstairs where the Legislature works, on the other hand, the atmosphere is noticeably more temperate.
Sure, an occasional squall pops up — like on Thursday when Minority Leader Ken Fredette said on the House floor that he opposes Medicaid expansion because he has a "man's brain." (Not fair, huh Guv?)
Still, when it comes to the budget, the Dems and the Republicans have done a bang-up job settling their differences and passing a two-year spending plan that pretty much everyone hates. (Which in politics is the equivalent of variable cloudiness with a 50 percent chance of rain: nothing to cheer about, but not bad enough to cancel the whole picnic.)
Heck, even Fredette's man-brain told him to go ahead and support the budget on Thursday because, as he so accurately put it, "Time is now short and we, the Legislature, must act to protect the hardworking people of Maine."
Enter the hot air mass.
"It's just absolutely horrific," you told Carrigan. "It's horrific. I thought the first two budgets that I had in Waterville, when I became mayor, were bad. But this is almost laughable."
Man, are you blowing in every direction these days!
One second, the budget is "horrific" — a word we normally associate with interstate pile-ups, airplane crashes and people who like to speak in hyperbole.
The next, the $6.3 billion spending package is "laughable" — a word that connotes amusement, farce and that ever-growing highlight reel they're compiling over at WCSH.
But it gets worse.
Now that both the Maine House and Senate have passed the budget with the two-thirds majorities needed to override a high-pressure gubernatorial veto, the political forecast calls for a 100 percent chance that you'll go ahead and nix the whole deal. We know this because last weekend you went on statewide radio and said you would.
Yet now that the budget is on your desk, you're saying you'll sit on it for 10 days because the Maine Constitution says you can. And because, as your chief of staff, John McGough, said in a recent letter to state employees, you "will need this time to evaluate each piece" of the budget.
Evaluate each piece? If you haven't done that already, Governor, then how do you know it's "horrific" and "laughable"?
You and I both know you're using that 10 days for one simple reason: The closer you can push this turbulence to the June 30 drop-dead date for enactment of a state budget, the better your chances of producing what for you would be the perfect storm.
Also known as a state shutdown.
Makes you giddy, doesn't it, Big Guy? Satellite TV trucks surrounding the State House, breathless reporters saying this is the biggest crisis to hit a state capital since Scott Walker put the whole state of Wisconsin under a dark cloud back in 2011, maybe even a team from the Weather Channel driving around the Blaine House in search of that "cloud of blind hatred."
("It's real, folks — and it's starting to form a funnel," I can hear storm chaser Jim Cantori warning us. "If you haven't already, now's the time to take cover!")
And there in the middle the maelstrom will be you, right, Governor?
Assuming you manage to peel off just enough Republicans from that two-thirds majority to sustain your veto, you'll howl above the din and flying bipartisan debris that all of this could have been prevented if only Senate President Justin Alfond, House Speaker Mark Eves and all those other dimwit Democrats on the third floor hadn't spawned that cloud of blind hatred in the first place.
"Quite frankly, folks, this is no way to start a Maine summer," you'll shout as the copper all but peels off the State House dome. "But if the loyal opposition wants a storm, that's exactly what they're going to get!"
What you won't do, of course, is accept any responsibility whatsoever for the hot air that's been fueling this brouhaha since the day you took office.
Nor will you use your own "man's brain" (No can do? Then borrow Ken Fredette's), sign the budget (or let it become law without a signature) and steer Maine around this tempest before real people (you know, the ones you promised to put before politics) start getting hurt.
I know, Big Guy, your base would never forgive you. But real leadership means being willing to reach out beyond that base and, when it really counts, do something constructive, something selfless, something truly gutsy.
Not to be confused with gusty.

Opinion: Blame Obama for All the Airport Delays
Assistant editorial page editor James Freeman on how President Obama could have prevented flight delays. Photo credit: Associated Press.
This transcript has been automatically generated and may not be 100% accurate.
... I ... good afternoon and welcome to Opinion Journal why Mary Kissel ... just when you thought flying in America could not get more knowing ... the Federal Aviation ministry mission this week ... decided to furlough air traffic controllers ... just to score some political points ... assistant editorial page editor James Freeman is here to discuss ... James C FAA is blaming it on the sequester ... was this the only option for the FAA know now and this is what you really have to wonder is is the point here just to infuriate passengers so that the law finally in these aspiration ... agree to higher taxes and more government spending to ... the FAA is basically chosen to love ... to make these cuts is painful is they can be iam bitter of the ... Fruhlinger traffic controllers Monday out of every ten days now ... the math means they're cutting their workforce by about ten percent in the towers how you end up with forty percent delays as a result of that it does make you wonder if you're ever present rate in the fireball almost all of the air traffic controllers in nineteen eighty one ... and in fairly short order flights were operating at something like eighty percent to ... of their own of their previous schedule so ... this this guy really doesn't have to be that way there are other options to get me the mind boggles chains because in the private sector ... if you had a reduced budget ... the thing you would least want to do was upset your customers like this government ... works the APUs it when yes I mean very far sighted there and so in that business to ride the margin of ... what he did what flexibility the president has picked up one at the top shows on the deal that I is ... is that there are there he's basically ignoring all of these of congressional efforts on a jury Miranda roadblock in the Senate ... saying ... well we did you more flexibility so you know that the two of them in there forever controller so you don't have to delay flights so far he's not interested that ... is basically ... there's a determination that these cuts will happen now with this particular point that though that causes a lot of annoyance to travel so the political strategy is to get people so angry that they want to raise their own taxable ... what is the eye to what other conclusion there can be you look at the the part of the FAA working on the Obama administration says were allowed to cut ... one in this program includes air traffic control whether there's a lot of staff there are people that don't draft and died in the airplanes ... and their being furloughed anymore than the people who actually are directing the airplane so ... I think ... there's more they spend five hundred million euro consultants ... every dollar that is necessary to three hundred million a year plus on supplies and travel ... again I mean is it possible that that's all necessary spending when your when you get people sitting waiting for flights to the fun ... things ... while in the present has tried very hard to scare us all into believing that the sequester ... which run our economy off a cliff right um what's the evidence so far to see that it's of ... for the first five weeks basically ... all of the the scare warnings were proven wrong so ... now we're two and this is why when you have no wonder they the ... idea of painting himself into this corner where he's ... he's so warning about these awful consequences ... and now we have this perverse incentive were since they didn't happen ... there's almost a political necessity her tended ... to show that no he doesn't fall over there really is a problem here and and that's why it's so disturbing when you look at the FAA in using these options that they have that they're not using while James an almost implies that he's trying to push the economy ... into a bad place well to help his political prospects for twenty fourteen year I'm being too cynical well I think is certainly you look at the the paintings causing air travelers right now ... you see how it could be avoided how there are other ways to cut budget there are other people but for all other people you could perhaps the good life often that SAC religion government ever considered that ... but but ... but but he did it does seem designed to blunt maximum pain on that bed traveler and I and motivate them to call Congress and say go ahead given this penny warrants raise my taxes I don't care to get to ... Los Angeles or weren't there or wherever they need to go ... but when it's to fly or really any business people ... but who cares about those

Ex-Breaking Benjamin Guitarist Aaron Fink Resurfaces in New Band Gentleman East
After his acrimonious 2011 exit from Breaking Benjamin and subsequent legal battle with frontman Benjamin Burnley over the band name, guitarist Aaron Fink has resurfaced in the new group Gentleman East.
Also in the band are guitarist Bret Alexander and bassist Paul Smith, who recently departed the long-running Pennsylvania rock band Badlees after 20 plus years. Violinist Nyke Van Wyk and drummer Ron Simasek round out the lineup.
"Just got the call from my long time friend Bret Alexander to fire up my amplifier and start working on writing some brand new future classics," Fink says. "Can't wait to re-unite with the boys and make some noise! Stay tuned folks…"
"I am very proud of the work we did with The Badlees over the years," says Alexander. "There was lots of great music and memories. But I'm really looking forward to an extremely prolific period coming up, both in the studio and on stage. I've already started putting new music together, it's going to be great."
Smith chimes in, "I'm excited to start working on new music with a new focus. I've been a fan of Bret's writing for years, and after having been on both sides of the glass, I can tell you it's a thrill to continue the creative process. After 23 years with The Badlees I feel fulfilled, however it's time to move onto new things. This change for me, feels right."
Gentleman East are currently writing new material for their debut release, and plan to play some live dates as well in the near future. You can keep up with their activities on the band's Facebook page.

First iPhone App Posted & Approved!!
It is a speedometer for your iPhone that does a bunch more: The coolest thing the app does is get your current weather conditions and temperature using you current GPS locaiton. The app also keeps track of your odometer mileage using fun little flip odometer animations. There is also a flip side view that gives you the current map of your location. Using the settings app on your iPhone you can switch between Metric (KPH/Celsius) and USA (MPH, Fahrenheit)!
I will put up a bunch more information later and update that app web site when I have a bit more time and am ready to start rolling out some kind of "advertising" so people can find it among the other 400,000 apps!

Laguna pre-formed ponds provide the all-important foundation for your water garden. Considered easier to install than lined, in-ground ponds since their shape and depth are pre-determined, all you need is an appropriately-sized hole and you're ready to goRead more
Pre-formed ponds can be installed in almost any garden environment.
Pre-formed ponds are a quick and easy way to create a small tranquil pond that will last for years. Made of rigid, heavy-duty construction, our pre-formed ponds are designed to withstand all kinds of extreme conditions, including heavy water loads, hot summers, and harsh winters.
A wide variety of pre-formed ponds are available and all are guaranteed to resist cracking, peeling, and fading for ten years. They are safe for fish, aquatic plants and wildlife.
Position the pond right side up in the exact place you want it, and use it as a guide or template to make a digging outline. Dig the shaped hole, place the preformed pond in the hole, making sure that it is supported on all sides.
For a step-by-step guide on installing a pre-formed pond, see our Projects section in Pond Help.

Fellas, get that patched-up jean jacket out of the closet, and ladies, dig out those leg-warmers and pick up a few extra cans of Aquanet on your way home from work. The '80s are working their way into the 21st century, and you're not going to want to miss them, as Rob Lyons of JRRL Promotions introduces his Bringing Back the '80s concert Saturday, Sept. 16, at the German-American Club, Cape Coral, featuring totally bodaciously rockin' metal sounds of Firehouse, Winger, SteelHeart and Warrant!
Article Video
"This is definitely going to be the biggest '80s party to hit Cape Coral since the '80s!" Rob said. "It's going to be high-energy fun for the whole family."
With doors opening at 4:30 p.m. and music thrashing at 5:30, this all-metal music mania promises to be a non-stop rock show full of wild hair whipping, rocker horns flaring and '80s fun for fans of all ages.
"These concerts are so fun and great for the whole community," Rob said, who helped coordinate the local Coolio/Tone Loc, Flock of Seagulls and Nonpoint concerts last year, as well as the recent Vanilla Ice show that came to town. "I was a child of the '80s, and this is going to be such a blast from the past show."

The boys of Warrant are ready to rock Southwest Florida!
The bands
Warrant, the headliners of the show, have transcended the ages and phases of rock, and continue performing to sold-out crowds around the globe on a regular basis. Most well-known for their hit single "Cherry Pie," these guys have decades of songs under their rock belts, including "Heaven," "Down Boys," "I Saw Red," "Uncle Tom's Cabin" and "Sometimes She Cries."
SteelHeart, hailing from the great state of Connecticut, was one of the very last hair metal bands to score a hit with a power ballad reaching platinum status worldwide before the music scene shifted to the grunge era.

Soon, the group released "I'll Never Let You Go," which reached No. 14 on the Billboard singles chart, along with "She's Gone," "Can't Stop Me Loving You" and "Everybody Loves Eileen."
Tragedy struck the band shortly after. On Halloween night, 1992, while opening for Slaughter at McNichols Arena in Denver, Colo., lead singer Michael Matijevic was struck in the head by a lighting truss, knocking him to the ground face first, and sustaining serious head injuries.
Since the accident, Matijevic spent years rebuilding SteelHeart to where it is today; a new beginning with a clear vision.
Winger first took the spotlight in the late '80s, quickly coming out with multiple singles that took the fast track to gold and platinum hits, including "Madalaine," "Seventeen," "Headed For A Heartbreak," "Hungry," "Can't Get Enuff," "Miles Away" and "Easy Come Easy Go," and nominated for an American Music Award for Best New Heavy Metal Band.
The group has been on world tours with the Scorpions, ZZ Top, Bad Company, Cinderella, Bon Jovi, Poison, Skid Row and Tesla.
Once going their separate ways years later, lead man Kip Winger moved on and currently produces, records and writes for multiple projects and movie scores, such as Blackwood Creek with brother, Nate Winger, and friend, Peter Fletcher.
Firehouse has been rockin' for more than two decades now, along with the rest of these great metal bands, and has produced some great hits, including "Reach for the Sky," "Sleeping with You" and "When I Look into Your Eyes,"climbing the charts as high as No. 6 worldwide.
As rock music evolved, so did Firehouse, coming out with nearly 10 albums into the early 2000s, with a greatest hits CD on the calendar for 2011.
Of course, no great '80s bash is complete without a beneficiary of the show.
"The Kiwanis Club of Cape Coral will receive a part of the proceeds of this event," Rob said.
Tickets to the show are $15 in advance, $20 at the gate, and may be purchased online by visiting BringingBackTheHair.com or by stopping by many local establishments.
There are still possibly a few VIP passes available, which include meet-and-greets with all the rockers of the evening, as well as some other fun perks.
"We're really excited to bring back the 80s music, hence Bringing Back the Hair," Rob said. "Come on out, it's going to be a great time for the whole family!"
Be sure to become a fan of the concert on Facebook by searching "Bring Back the Hair," don't be afraid to show your 80s style and flash during the show, and for more information on the upcoming rock fest of pure metal and malarkey, visit BringingBackTheHair.com or call Rob at 677-9670 or email email@example.com.

Watch: On 'Big Brother,' Omarosa Warns of 'Scary' Mike Pence
On the Monday night episode of "Celebrity Big Brother" houseguest Omarosa Manigault Newman, who served as a White House aide, warned against impeaching President Donald Trump, saying that Vice President Mike Pence would be a "scary" Commander in Chief.
"Can I just say this? As bad as y'all think Trump is, you would be worried about Pence," she told her fellow celebrity houseguests. "Anyone wishing for impeachment might want to reconsider their life. We would be begging for days of Trump back if Pence became President, that's all I'm saying. He's extreme."
Omarosa, who appeared on NBC's "The Apprentice" which Trump hosted at the time, went on to discuss Pence's religious beliefs, calming Pence believes Jesus Christ tells him to say things.
"I'm Christian, I love Jesus but he thinks Jesus tells him to say things - I'm like, 'Jesus didn't say that.' He's scary,'" she said.
Elsewhere in the segment, Omarosa discussed DACA, criticized the Obama administration, and called Trump a "numbers guy," adding he wants to "outdo his predecessors."
Before competing on the CBS reality show, Omarosa was the White House's director of communications for the Office of Public Liaison before abruptly leaving in December.
This isn't the first time Omarosa has discussed Trump on "Celebrity Big Brother." She made headlines last week when talking with fellow houseguest Ross Mathews, saying she's "haunted" by the president's tweets and that America will "not be OK."
Pence has a long history of opposing LGBTQ equality and has long supported "religious liberty" measures, having signed bill into law when he served as the govern of Indiana in 2015.

vkn: Tie a knot at rope end and hold on daviss. We are with you From small to teeny weeny alt
Daviss: I see something from K Bass Ayers....I think she is still in Dubai
Seventies: A few weeks ago, I made contact with someone who was researching the Earls family in Wilkinson Co. MS. They have now contacted me about the Henyard family. very excited!
Daviss: Very nice Seventies.....Congrats
vkn: Excited with you seventies
Selma: Good for you seventies
vkn: Yes@ daviss she wanted to correct her name
Daviss: Nothing wrong with that vkn. Glad she could
alt: exciting Seventies .. you be's 'clustering' to da max LOL
vkn: Interesting story of family she tells daviss
Seventies: Yes indeed alt.. lol
Daviss: she is very interesting vkn.. I just love her
Seventies: The Henyards, Earls, Scotts and McFarlands...
Daviss: Did your Scotts end up in Okla Seventies?
Selma: Alt..regarding the names on the USCT memorial..and name changes
Seventies: No MS and LA Daviss.
vkn: great She is an AfriGenean of over ten years daviss. Was on the original mailing list if I am remembering correctly
Daviss: She is in our Gen Group vkn ok seventies
Seventies: Some may have left, but hadn't tracked them outside of Chicago... lol
vkn: I just did a "like" on your gengroup daviss @ facebook
Daviss: ok vkn
Selma: I have to check my files..but I assisted a woman along time ago, whose relative enlisted under "his" last slave owners name, his family had been split up under numerous owners after an owner...when they reunited and appeared on 1870 census, they all took that owners surname an owner died
vkn: Interesting Selma
Daviss: Do you have index files Selma with names
Selma: When the man enlisted at Fort Monroe...his owners name was listed, so not sure if he "used" that surname or the officer who enlisted him..just put it down
vkn: Nice convo alt with History on military
alt: okay Selma, I was asking the question because of the Tobias Bowdry stroy recently talked about here on AfriGeneas.... He is listed on the memorial as Wilson Green... the alias he was given for enlistment purposes, but he got hispesnison under the Bowdry surname... his last slave owner
vkn: and saw your Callens photo Seventies ...nice
Selma: That was the same scenario..
Seventies: thank you vkn
Selma: When she contacted me it was a couple of months after I heard James Walker speak in 1993..he said you want the Pension Records, they are cross referenced with the Service Records but the Service Records were not..
alt: He was captured in MS along with his slave master, they brought them to a POW camp in Ohio where they were separated and he (Tobias) was allowed to enlist in the USCT.
Selma: I told her to send for Pension Record...both names appeared
alt: same thing with the Bowdry pension file Selma, both names appeared
Selma: The name he was using after family reunited..and the name he enlisted under was listed as alias
alt: right Selma. I guess that wasn't an uncommon occurrence
Selma: Not it was not..the Officers were under pressure to assign folks I don't want to say proper names, but the in the accepted form of first names and surnames..or you could have a "million Davids" enlisting with no other way to differentiate..
Seventies: Why don't any of my CW pension files have that kind of information?? sigh
vkn: lol
alt: right Selma
Selma: Maybe because the names they enlisted under was the same ones they applied for their pension under
Seventies: Could be.
Selma: On the list I have for folks who enlisted at Fort Monroe..I have to check the dates..there was a column for names of former owners
Seventies: Even so, there are people who listed their 'former' slaveholders in some of the Regimental records I've looked at. I was absolutely surprised.
alt: like most other aspects of genealogy research there are so many varying/individual circumstances to each situation.
Selma: On many lists generated in VA, cohabs, census lists, names of owners are listed..I wondered if that was included in case the North lost the War and property would be returned..or if government would reimburse them for their loss of property
alt: that's a thought Selma... the North losing and how would the slave owners be 'repaired"?
Seventies: I think so Selma. I am inclined to think that people, particularly the businessmen who owned people, would want to be given restitution for 'property' lost.
alt: isn't that is what the Southern Claims Commission is about? restitution for property lost as a result of the CW?
Selma: But at that point the decision had been made not to reimburse folks for their enslaved property Those slave owners who remained with the Union like in Maryland before the War ended could submit claims.. this whole name thing is complicated..I hate when folks say "owners GAVE their slaves their last names"...I think in most instances, it was theirs to choose.. and it didn't mean cause their owners were "kinder gentler"..like the IRS
alt: yep Selma, that 'one size fits all' thought process needs some reworking LOL LOL
Seventies: I think its irritating when we refer to Africans who were enslaved as slaves, but you live and learn. Legally Africans had no standing as citizens until the ratification of the 14th amendment.
alt: another BIG dispute Seventies, who were considered citizens prior to the 'citizenship' amendment.
Seventies: I think its pretty cut and dry... do you have another view on this? I'd love to get another perspective on it.
alt: well, the enslaved & the native american's weren't considered citizens, not sure about the status of indentured servants and FPOC....
Seventies: Okay, but indentured servants after 1789 who were white and from England were giving automatic citizenship according to the federal law of that time. naturalization act of 1789.
Selma: Yes.. You mean what was status before 1868 when 14th was passed.
alt: yes Selma, Well, that's my homework assignment...... got to get ready for a Dr.s visit @ 2:30 ... laters y'all
Daviss: lol
Seventies: Have a good one alt.
Daviss: take care
Selma: I think in the FB records...you see the beginnings of how to include them in the process
Seventies: The marriages and such.. interesting. Also the voting...
Selma: The marriages legalized those relationships, but in some instances what was more important..was legalizing those children from those relationships for inheritance and who would be "responsible" for them Yes..voting.. ...sorry took over the conversation.. LOL
Daviss: later ladies......
Seventies: No no no that's good info.. bye Daviss..
Selma: Time for me to run too.. Have a great day
Seventies: See y'all tonight
Selma: Ok goodness hope I can stay up

Last week I went to the White House to attend a town hall on the health care law. Health and Human Services Secretary Kathleen Sebelius called it the most important women's health care law in 50 years and highlighted the positive ways it will affect coverage for women.
If it isn't overturned by the Supreme Court, the Affordable Care Act will mean significant changes in coverage not only for women but specifically for moms. With so much information out there about the ways health insurance will be different, here's what moms need to know about how the new law might have an impact on them:
More from The Stir: What You Need to Know About the New Health Care Law
1. Children cannot be denied coverage because of a pre-existing condition. This is a huge change and was spoken about repeatedly last week at the White House. It's now illegal to refuse to cover babies and all other children under 19 who have pre-existing health conditions, whether it's asthma or something more serious. Previously, insurance providers could deny coverage to children with health problems or drop them from their plan. Adults with pre-existing conditions will no longer be denied coverage either.
2. Contraception is covered without a copay. Meaning all birth control -- including the pill, IUDs, and even tube-tying procedures -- that you currently can only get by handing over a copay will be free. Free!
3. Breastfeeding supplies and services will be covered without a copay. New moms who are breastfeeding will have access to everything from lactation consultants to breast pump rentals without paying a cent. Insurance will take care of it.
4. Prenatal care screenings for conditions like gestational diabetes, hepatitis B, and anemia, as well as other preventive services, will be covered with no copay. Pregnant women who currently have to help foot the bill for various tests will now be screened at no cost to them.
5. Maternity and newborn care will become mandatory. Beginning in 2014, all health insurance plans must include pregnancy and newborn care. That means all prenatal visits and delivery options will be covered by insurance and available to expectant moms so they don't have to pick and choose which ones they can afford and which ones they'll have to skip.
What changes in health care are you happiest about?

Before Calling Emergency
Determine the following information:
- Patient's age, weight, and condition
- Name of the product (ingredients and strengths, if known)

In rare cases you may also hear ringing in your ears and have a bad headache, but these symptoms will likely pass as well.

10 Coolest Small Towns: Manitou Springs
These towns all have fewer than 10,000 people—but they can rival larger cities when it comes to good food, culture, and quality of life.
Manitou Springs, Colo.
Population: 5,038
Nearest City: Colorado Springs, 6 miles
One of the things Fred Mutter loves most about Manitou Springs, where he relocated three years ago, is that its residents come from all walks of life. "There's a huge range of people who live here, from scientists and businessmen to new-age hippies," he says. "It's really an eclectic group." His store fits right in: Kinfolks Mountain Shop sells outdoor gear, but it's also a bar and live-music venue (950 Manitou Ave., 719/685-4433, kinfolksmanitou.com).
In fact, you won't find any chain stores in the Victorian-era buildings crammed into the narrow valley at the foot of Pikes Peak. WeUsOur Artists Market has unusual art on display, such as giant pottery teapots and portraits painted with coffee (10 Ruxton Ave., 719/685-9702), while Cripple Creek Dulcimers & Guitars is run by a tie-dye-wearing former mayor, Bud Ford, who bears a striking resemblance to the late Jerry Garcia (740 Manitou Ave., 719/685-9655, dulcimer.net).

Rescue workers attend to a victim after a section of a parking garage under construction at a Miami-Dade College campus collapsed, on Oct. 10, in Doral, Fla., killing one worker and trapping at least two others in the rubble, officials said.
NBCMiami.com and NBC News staff --Police say a second body has been found in the rubble of a collapsed parking garage at Miami-Dade Community College's west campus in Doral, Fla.
Hours after the collapse at 11:40 a.m. on Wednesday, one person remained trapped in the rubble. Six crew members were with the person giving him oxygen and attending to his needs as others removed the heavy debris, said Capt. Louie Fernandez of Fire Rescue. Another person who had been trapped was rescued.
"The person cannot be moved. We literally have to lift and remove tons of debris around him," he said.
Some 300 rescuers rushed to the scene when a portion of the five-story parking garage at 3800 N.W. 115th Ave. collapsed in what authorities call a "pancake-style collapse." Police said it appeared that only construction workers were at the site.

ANHE-Nurses needed a new logo design and created a contest on 99designs.
A winner was selected from 84 designs submitted by 18 freelance designers.
Nurses' Pledge for Healthy Environments -- http://www.enviRN.org
The public awareness and interest in all things "green" is creating a demand for nurses to understand the relationship between human health and the environments in which we live, learn, work, and play.
The Alliance of Nurses for Healthy Environments is a national organization that convenes individual nurses and nursing organizations to promote healthy people and healthy environments.
Our organization is embarking on a year-long campaign to reach out to Nurses asking them to take a Pledge to create Healthy Environments where they work and live -- we will have a different focus each month - from eating organic foods to changing the products used in hospitals and improving recycling programs.
The Alliance of Nurses for Healthy Environments is reaching out to all nurses around the world and asking them to take "The Nurse's Pledge for Healthy Environments" in 2011.
We are looking for a graphical identity (logo/colors/style) for this "pledge".
This is for NURSES not doctors or hospitals but for the individual Nurse. You can use iconic images for nurses (nurse cap, red cross, stethoscopes, etc)
The obvious color choices are blues and greens - we are not opposed to these - but we are okay for you to be CREATIVE and think outside the usual "eco-color" scheme.
We think the logo should probably contain a graphic of the "earth" in some way, but it does not have to be literal.
Feel free to send a question along.
Thank you.
PS -- The image attached is just an example of one hospital's logo... it's just inspiration

One of the BEST electropop I've heard in recent times… Madeon is a 17 year old from France who has been remixing music for big stars like DeadMau5 and Yelle. Pretty damn impressive. Looking forward to much more from this youngster.
Que Veux Tu (Madeon Remix) [Yelle]
If the Beach Boys were reincarnated (Ok, I know they're mostly still alive but…) as hipsters from LA, they would probably be something like Best Coast. Not a huge fan of surf-pop but I do like a bunch of Best Coast's songs. The best way I can describe their music is bittersweet… sweet yet the sound is almost cynical.
I Want To [Best Coast]
I could not HELP MYSELF from posting this Pitball song "I Know You Want Me" because of Lanvin's adorably awkward dancing models in their Fall 2011 campaign. Best fashion campaign I've seen this season. Looooove.
So… good.

Heartbreak as Teenager Kills Herself Because Parents Banned Her From Facebook
A 17-year-old Indian girl killed herself on Wednesday after her parents told her she needed to stop wasting her time on Facebook and her mobile phone and focus more on her studies.
Newsweek Pakistan reported Friday that the girl, Aishwarya Dahiwal of Maharashtra state's Parbhani city, was found hanging in her bedroom after arguing with her parents on Wednesday. She left a suicide note which references Facebook and the argument with her parents which police are currently examining.
"On Wednesday night, she had an argument with her parents who told her not to just use Facebook and her mobile all day for chatting," an officer from Nanal Peth police station who asked to remain unidentified told Newsweek Pakistan.
"They told her to focus on her studies. After the argument, she locked herself in her room and was found hanging later, with a suicide note nearby," he said.
Investigating officer GH Lemgude of Nanalpeth police station in Parbhani told Times of India that the parents had no intention of pushing their daughter over the edge when they tried to get their daughter off Facebook and the phone.
"Like all parents, their intentions were only to ensure that the girl did not go astray. They advised her to concentrate on her studies and stay away from long mobile chats and social networking sites," said Lemgude.
While Internet is still low across India, Facebook use is quickly spreading among teens and high school students who prefer using the social network over the telephone to communicate according to Newsweek Pakistan.
Of the 1.2 billion people in India some 200 million are expected to have Internet access by the end of 2013.
The Wall Street Journal reported that the teen's death is one among a startling suicide trend in Maharashtra, one of India's most developed states.
Some 16,112 people committed suicide in that state last year alone ranking it with the second highest suicide rate among Indian states.
India's National Crime Records Bureau highlight family problems as the single largest factor driving people to commit suicide.
Dahiwal reportedly noted in her suicide note that not being able to access Facebook caused her to kill herself.
"We still can't believe it. We are in deep shock," the girl's father Sunil Dahiwal told India Real Time Friday.
"We just wanted her to focus on her studies. We never thought she would ever take such a harsh step," he added.

Humanity has been is Australia a long time. And a new find proves that humans were thriving there 35,000 years ago! Yahoo! has a story on it titled Ancient tools unearthed in Australia.
The article notes, "Tools dating back at least 35,000 years have been unearthed in a rock shelter in Australia's remote northwest, making it one of the oldest archaeological finds in that part of the country, archaeologists said Monday. The tools include a piece of flint the size of a small cell phone and hundreds of tiny sharp stones that were used as knives. One local Aboriginal elder saw it as vindication of what his people have said all along — that they have inhabited this land for tens of thousands of years."
It is hard to fathom how old this is. Ancient Rome ruled 2000 years ago. And that is ancient history. Now, go back another 33,000 years!
The article continues, "Australia's Aborigines have been called the world's oldest continuous culture; some archaeological sites elsewhere in Australia date Aboriginal presence to at least 40,000 years ago." I wonder how much older human artifacts are yet waiting to be found Down Under?

Albany, N.Y. - Sophomore forward Sabre Proctor of the Stony Brook women's basketball team was selected to the All-America East third team, while freshman forward Brittany Snow and senior guard Dani Klupengergarnered All-Rookie and All-Academic accolades, respectively, conference officials announced Thursday evening at the league's annual postseason banquet.
In her first season at Stony Brook, Proctor leads the Seawolves and ranks seventh in the league with a scoring average of 10.9 points per game. The North Carolina A&T transfer has tallied double-digits in points a team-high 14 times, including a 25-point outburst against Iona Dec. 30, and has paced SBU in scoring 11 times, also a Seawolf-best. Her 78.3 free throw percentage is the third highest in the America East, while her 44.6 field goal percentage is good for eighth in the conference.
Snow has played in all 29 games, making 25 starts, during her freshman campaign. Snow, a pre-med student, holds a scoring average of 6.5 points per contest while averaging 3.6 rebounds per game. She posted a game-best, career-high 16 points while pulling down seven boards to lead Stony Brook past Vermont, 68-53, Jan. 19 at Pritchard.
A journalism and business major, Klupenger has excelled in the classroom and on the court during her four years in Seawolves Country. She holds a cumulative 3.65 GPA while also serving as co-president of the Student Athlete Advisory Committee and hosting, producing and editing Get Your RED on Minute, a weekly show that promotes SBU Athletics. The 2012-13 Stony Brook University Homecoming Queen is a member of the Golden Key International Honour Society, has made Dean's List six times and has been named to the America East Commissioner's Honor Roll twice.
Klupenger, who hails from Aurora, Ore., has etched her name into the Stony Brook record books for her prowess behind the arc. On Feb. 9 against Hartford, she became the fifth Seawolf to nail 100 3-pointers in her career and now sits fourth all-time at SBU in career treys with 111. Her six triples in a come-from-behind win over Maine on Senior Day, Feb. 23, are the fourth-most ever for an SB women's hoopster in a single contest.
Stony Brook (14-15, 6-10 AE) will open America East Championship play against New Hampshire Saturday at 6 p.m. at SEFCU Arena in Albany, N.Y. The Seawolves, who have orchestrated one of the top-five turnarounds in the country with a 10-win improvement from last season, are the fourth-seed, their highest since playing in the fourth-spot in 2009-10.

After five years apart, Death From Above 1979 reunited in 2011 to perform at various festivals like Coachella. Apparently all that went pretty well, as the group is still together and, according to the group, even writing new songs. And soon enough, they'll be testing those songs out on the road: In a post on the duo's blog, member Sebastian Grainger writes, "We're going to throw our little musclebound babies to the lions and see who survives. We tried just jumping into the studio, but the songs lacked spirit. They lacked life." Unfortunately for American fans, it'll be a while before they get to hear them, as all the band's planned shows so far are north of the border. A full list of dates is below.
Oct. 28—Studio Theatre—Hamilton, Ontario
Oct. 29—Venue—Peterborough, Ontario
Oct. 30—London Music Hall—London, Ontario

Neighbors say the property at 19 Tisbury St. for years has been filled with trash and the city has ignored their complaints.
NEW BEDFORD — Nineteen Tisbury Street is on a tree-lined street in a quiet North End neighborhood. But that's where the homey atmosphere ends.
Neighbors say the property for years has been filled with trash and the city has ignored their complaints. The city's head detective says police have even informed the Health Department twice that plastic bags of feces are being stored on the property.
Detective Capt. Steven Vicente said the department brushed off the concerns as a Building Department responsibility. That was until The Standard-Times began asking questions of the Health Department and other city officials about the problem.
The day after the newspaper left messages for Health Department director Brenda Weis and contacted Neil Mello, the mayor's chief of staff, a citation was issued at the house on Tuesday. Mello showed the paper records indicating the department had been examining the address since April but acknowledged the city had not taken action.
Hilda Rapoza lives in the neighborhood and said she's reported the property to the city "at least five times" over the course of five years but hasn't received much help.
"They keep telling me they're aware of it," she said, adding that the yard has become worse over the past 10 years. She estimated that the owner, Edward M. Medeiros, has lived there 40 years. She said that she's worried about rodents, fire, and devaluation of her house.
"I don't want to hear that they're aware of it, I want to hear that they're doing things about it," she said.
"We've had mice. I've had the exterminator here twice."
Richard Barros, another neighbor, said he is concerned the house is a fire hazard.
"There's a lot of lawn mowers, cars, gasoline," he said. "It's an accident waiting to happen."
A third neighbor also raised a health concern.
"There are a lot of rats in the area, and it probably could be traced back to that house," said Ken Beres.
Adjacent to the Cape Cod-style house at 19 Tisbury St. — which is located off Tarkiln Hill Road — this week were three trash-filled cars (two on the street and one in the driveway). Its yard included garbage and debris strewn across it, including tarps, lawn mowers, bins, and more than a dozen garbage barrels.
Vicente said neighbors called the police because they were concerned about the conditions in the yard, and that officers went to the house on May 28 in the afternoon.
"There's a large amount of trash and bottles, at least 12 small engines from lawn mowers, plastic bags of feces causing the neighborhood to smell and bring rats and rodents," Vicente said. "The police reported it to the Health Department, twice on the 28th. First they said it was the Building Department's problem."
The Building Department and Fire Department went to the house that day, and the Building Department found some minor building code infractions, according to Vicente.
The police called the Health Department a second time "and they still refused to go out," Vicente said. "The Board of Health would not go down there. They said it was a Building Department issue."
Vicente also said the electricity and gas at the house is off, according to the police report.
Police also spoke to the owner by phone on May 28, who said he wasn't home and would be back in "a couple of days," Vicente said.
City assessing records identify Medeiros as the owner; knocks at the 19 Tisbury door early Monday afternoon and early Tuesday evening went unanswered.
Health Director Weis could not be reached for comment after two telephone calls, two requests to the mayor's office and two visits by a reporter to the Health Department over the course of two days. City officials said she is "out of town."
When Weis was named director in 2012, she said "I believe the sanitation codes absolutely have to be the highest priority for the city. If we don't clean up the housing, it's hard to deliver health."
Mello said the Health Department was out to the property "on April 29" but hadn't cited the owner.
"At the time the Health Department did not see any code violations," he said. "They felt they needed to gain access to the house."
The inspection record from April 29 says the inspector "found receptacles with lids, all materials covered with a tarp or plastic bags. No loose litter could be seen from sidewalk."
The state's sanitary code calls lack of electricity and gas, as well as accumulation of garbage, "conditions deemed to endanger or impair health or safety." It also says property owners are responsible for maintaining land "in a clean and sanitary condition free from garbage, rubbish or other refuse."
The city's code of ordinances says the owner "shall at all times maintain the premises free of litter" that is not in receptacles. The code also says "the city health department is hereby authorized and empowered to notify the owner ... to properly dispose of litter located on such owner's property which is dangerous to public health, safety or welfare."
If a citation isn't answered within 14 days, the city code goes on, the Health Department is "authorized and empowered to pay for the disposing of such litter or to order its disposal by the city."
Mitchell said Tuesday he is confident in the management of the Health Department. Asked if city residents should be concerned about the Health Department not investigating health issues, he said "public health has been a priority" in the city and that "there is a process you have to follow, and that process takes time" when it comes to health complaints.

Despite its title, "Elysium" is no promised land.
Expectations were high that the film starring Matt Damon would carry the flag for thoughtful, big-budget films that care about more than profits. But it has ended up as something of a disappointment, an epic that has gone over to the dark side without realizing it.
That anticipation came courtesy of "District 9" — the 2009 science fiction film by Neill Blomkamp, "Elysium's" South African writer-director — which came out of nowhere to be nominated for four Oscars, including best picture and adapted screenplay.

Tancredo Focuses Immigration Talk on Assimilationby John Dykstra '13 • April 13, 2011 Share:
Tom Tancredo's grandfather was the first member of his family to immigrate to the United States in the early 1900s. Tancredo's grandparents adapted to American culture adopting the English language and learning American history.
Tancredo, a former presidential candidate and five-term Congressman, discussed his thoughts Tuesday on immigration focusing on assimilation. The talk was sponsored by the Wabash College Conservative Union.
See photos here. See Tancredo's entire talk on the Wabash College YouTube page.
"To my grandparents it was important to first speak American in the assimilation process," Tancredo said. "It was important for them and it was important for America to have this process going on. The word 'assimilation' is frowned upon now because people think it means giving up something to accept something.
"Because we come from so many different places, backgrounds, and attitudes, something has to happen to connect us and the one place to start is the language."
Tancredo was careful in discussing cultural backgrounds. He said it is important to remember our heritage, but to also support American culture because we are Americans.
Adam Brasich '11 found Tancredo's statements relevant to American society and our identity as Americans.
"He raised some very valid points," Brasich said. "Focusing on multiculturalism, I thought he answered what it means to be a nation of immigrants and how we relate our ethnic heritage to American culture very well. I mean, how do I think about my own Croatian ancestry in regards to being an American? I think representative Tancredo had a very good answer to how we can represent our heritage and what ultimately comes first."
Tancredo contested that most immigrants come to America for financial benefits, but do not want to be 'Americans.' That is, they do not want to adopt American culture. He stated that finding one's place in a culture is based on knowing your enemy and knowing who you are. He defended that his points are not racial.
"I am not being racist," he said. "I do not care what heritage anyone is from as long as they assimilate with American culture. This issue has nothing to do with race and people are fast to assume I am being racist because most illegal immigrants are from Mexico."
Andrew Forrester '11 thought Tancredo clarified his statements very well and that his points are relevant to our society.
"The talk was very thought provoking" Forrester said. "A lot of people say that he is so far right and what he is advocating is racist, but I think he did a great job of clarifying his statements and what he is actually talking about in tonight's talk."
"I was just talking with some men who are political liberals and yet they are saying we can find common ground in Tancredo's talk because we all come from ancestors who are of different descent."
The Wabash Conservative Union's Events Coordinator and Business Manager Jeremy Wentzel '14 thought Tancredo would help the Conservative Union "create a splash" on campus.
"We wanted to bring some dynamic speakers to campus this time around," Wentzel said. "We thought that Tom Tancredo was a great person to bring in. He engaged a lot of people and he used real world examples when you cannot use book examples. It was a real theoretical approach, but he brought everything back to real life."
Tancredo ended his talk asking if America actually has a culture. He acknowledged that having a diverse culture is important, but that we need common ground in order to bind us together as a people.
"Do we have an American culture?" he said. "If so, do we have a right to hold onto it?"

A New York City airport security guard is under investigation after allegedly giving Kanye West and Kim Kardashian special treatment.
The Gold Digger hitmaker and his pregnant reality star girlfriend had just landed at the John F. Kennedy International Airport on a flight from Brazil on Tuesday when they were whisked away by an airline greeter.
The employee reportedly let the couple bypass a Transportation Security Administration (TSA) checkpoint to get to another gate quicker, but the stars were later yanked off their connecting flight due to the safety breach and re-screened.
And now the agent is being investigated by the TSA over the alleged violation.
A representative tells TMZ.com, "An airline employee escorted the two travellers through a non-public area in order to provide expedited access to their domestic flight. In doing so, the airline employee violated security protocols by permitting the travellers to by-pass the TSA security checkpoint.
"TSA officials learned of the violation and conducted a private screening of the two passengers in the area of the jetway. The passengers were cleared to board their flight, which departed after a delay of approximately 50 minutes. TSA is actively investigating the incident."
