So here's what went down after you logged off.
For the 2008 Olympians, what's nutritious and delicious? Powdered apple peel.
Humans and wild elephants in Indonesia have come into repeated conflict over habitat – resulting in property losses for humans and deaths of wild elephants. So, locals have developed a squadron of trained "flying elephants" that patrol the perimeter villages and warn their brethren away.
Insects that dive underwater create an "underwater lung" – an air bubble they carry with them as they swim – in order to breathe. Scientists have just figured out how it works.
Don't forget to sleep on it: sleep plays a sophisticated role in what we remember – and what we forget.
Geographic profiling: what works for bees also works for serial killers.
Ready the wonderment: the Moon goes into partial eclipse this Saturday night.
Where have all the sea monsters gone? A variety of factors are transforming Earth's oceans into "simplistic ecosystems dominated by microbes, toxic algal blooms, jellyfish and disease."

Ron Jadin, CFO of W.W. Grainger, says there are pros and cons to being in a short-cycle business.
Because Grainger, an $8.1-billion provider of maintenance and repair supplies and operating equipment, doesn't have a big order backlog the way longer-cycle industries typically do, "it can be hard to tell when a downturn is coming," Jadin says. "We didn't see the downturn until the fourth quarter of '08."
The upside is that when a downturn happens, a company like Grainger can turn on a dime and cut its costs.
"We have a lot of part-time employees in our warehouses and work centers," he explains, "so we can have flex employment, cutting our labor costs. Managers in each location manage their labor hours every day, so if you have the right tools and reporting, you can cut part-time hours out right away."
Jadin notes that when the economy reaccelerates, the company is able to pick up the pace quickly. "When you have the tools to show demand is picking up again, you can add people quickly," he says, "by just adding to their hours again."
Cutting hours isn't the only way that Jadin, who was appointed CFO in March 2008, cut Grainger's costs during the recession. "We took $100 million in inventory out of a total of $1 billion in inventory," he says. "And we did that without hurting our service standards at all, and that's not easy."
In fact, he says, the company was able to gain more market share during the downturn than at any time in recent memory. It accomplished this by micro-managing the inventory cuts, so that instead of wholesale reductions, it reduced the amount of each product on hand only slightly—for example, keeping eight of a certain type of hammer in each warehouse instead of 10.
Jadin says that through the recession, he and the rest of the company's senior management focused on providing good service to customers. While Grainger laid off 600 employees, it added 150 salespeople. He also rolled out a proprietary tool developed by the company, called KeepStock, to help Grainger's customers manage their own inventories.
Jadin also implemented a board decision to increase the company's dividend. "Our earnings were down 10% in 2009, but we increased our dividend by 14%," he says. "The shareholders loved it!"
Jadin, who joined Lake Forest, Ill.-based Grainger in 1998 after serving as a financial analyst at General Electric, says that after he was named CFO, he "introduced more of a contingency-planning mind-set—because you have to have a playbook."
That contingency planning includes strategies to extend the strong performance of Grainger's stock in recent years.
"We are currently in the top 3% to 5% in total shareholder return," he says. "Well, nobody repeats that. You can't do the same thing for five more years that you did for the past five. We need a new strategy. We need to put a lot of effort into figuring out what to keep and what are the important things to focus on."
One focus is global growth, Jadin says. "We're still 75% in the U.S., and we think we need to grow more outside the U.S."
The other area he wants to focus on is e-business. "We're the 15th-largest e-tailer with $2 billion a year in sales," Jadin says. "There's a huge opportunity for moving more of our business to the Internet over the next five years."

With the support of the 2013 John Worthington Ames Scholarship, Arlen Stawasz traveled to the Netherlands and Bangladesh to research sea level rise mitigation strategies. These two highly populated nations that exist on deltaic landscapes have been consistently battling the water-flow forces of nature for hundreds of years. Both countries face many similar water issues but address them with an entirely different set of resources and solutions.
Approximately 67% of the Netherlands requires protection from dykes and dams, and 26% of the country is below sea level. The Dutch have been very proactive in their approach of 'living with the water', and there are many lessons to be learned from their technical solutions. On the other hand, Bangladesh is predicted to experience a much more drastic impact on their agriculture than any other developing country in the world due to sea level rise (World Bank Development Research Group). Nevertheless, the country has been internationally recognized for its simplest forms and methods that address flood related issues.
This presentation will showcase some of the initiatives currently underway or that have been completed in both countries in the realm of preparing for climate change. From these experiences and through his investigations, Arlen will share his research on the political and economic strategies of Dutch and Bengali policies towards sea level rise. Arlen will also divulge conversations of his interviews with stakeholders, city planners, architects, and flood resilience group organizations planning for sea level rise. Arlen will tell stories of his engagements with Dutch and Bengali communities and residents who have lived to see the successes and failures of living with the water.
Arlen works for CBT Architects on a variety of projects, ranging from high rise development to academic and urban planning projects. He is also the co-chair of CBT's Sustainable Design Committee, which is focused on serving as an engine, resource, and motivational tool to foster change within the firm's culture and design practice.
Arlen is a member of the Urban Land Institute and serves as an instructor of the BAC faculty and an active member of the Alumni Board. In his spare time he enjoys traveling, photography, hiking, basketball, dancing, and Lebanese food.

By Steve
It was a cold morning. There was a thick coat of fog over the land.
Xena and
Gabrielle were sitting around what was left of the fire from the night
trying to get it started again. They were do in Dahran by noon, and
that was
almost a day's journey from where they were now.
"How will we make it to Dahran by noon? I'm tired and don't think I
could run
all day." Gabrielle said, shivering uncontrollably. She wrapped her
hands around
her knees and pulled them up to her chest. She wished she had dressed
sensibly for their trip.
"We will make it, don't worry," Xena said, dressed in her usual skimpy
yet showing no signs of being cold. She always looked the same. It was
as though
she had no emotion. She was always tough as stone, letting nothing get
close to
her. Gabrielle really hated that. She wanted to see Xena act human just
because as it was now, Gabrielle wasn't convinced that Xena was human.
"How can you tell me we'll make it on time? We have half a day to make
a day's
"I'll bet you that we have enough time to make it there, and even stop
at a hot
spring I know about for a bath."
"That's impossible."
"That's what you think."
After eating a small breakfast, Gabrielle and Xena headed for the hot
Xena said it was not far from where they had slept. Gabrielle had a
large smile
on her face the whole time. She was so happy that Xena was going to be
This would finally prove that Xena was not perfect.
The sun was just starting to peak over the mountains when they reached
spring. It was a small pool of steaming water. The spring was
surrounded by
thick brush which would prevent any onlookers, if anyone was stupid
enough to be
out in this weather. The temperature had dropped off considerably since
left camp and Gabrielle was really starting to regret not wearing
clothes. To her left, she saw Xena taking off her adornments and lying
them in a
neat pile next to the pool.
"Come on, don't just stand there," Xena said, removing her corset and
her more than ample breasts. Gabrielle looked over at Xena's naked
form. She
wished her breasts were that perfect. She was almost embarrassed to
take off her
clothes now.
Xena unlaced her boots and stepped into the water. "Oh yeah." she said
in a very soothing tone. Xena's face contorted in pleasure. She loved
the feel
of the warm water enveloping her naked skin.
Gabrielle quickly had her clothes off and stepped into the water. She
look at Xena. It was too hard. She felt so different. She was standing
next to a
perfectly built women and here she was, a small, skinny kid who had no
figure. She had never really thought about this before, but she began
to realize
how much it bothered her. Every time they'd meet a man, he would stare
at Xena
and utterly ignore her. She was about to explode when.
"A little cold to be without your clothes, don't you think ladies?" a
voice came
from behind Gabrielle. She turned around to see a towering man with
chiseled muscles. He had long, brown hair that was blowing in the wind.
Gabrielle was in love.
"Hercules!" Xena shouted, jumping out of the water and hugging him
Hercules wrapped his arms around her naked back and held her tight as
Gabrielle looked on in horror. Fate. She sees the most handsome man in
the world
and Xena already knows him. Typical.
"Hello Xena," Hercules said, pulling Xena into a deep kiss. Xena knew
him VERY
"I missed you so much," Xena said, throwing herself all over Hercules.
"Me, too," Hercules replied, running his hand over her naked ass.
It turned out that Hercules was just out walking across the country in
search of
a meal. He was on his way home from a journey and had no place to be,
so he
joined Xena and Gabrielle. The whole journey to Dahran was filled with
and Xena flirting, exchanging playful touches. Gabrielle just followed
knowing that it was way past noon, but she didn't say anything to Xena.
didn't want to disturb her.
The sun was just starting to set when they arrived in Dahran. They were
here to
meet Xena's sister, something Gabrielle was looking forward to. She
wanted to
see if Xena's family was as perfect as she was. Xena walked hand in
hand with
Hercules. They looked to be love. Gabrielle was happy that Xena has
mainly because she had never seen Xena happy before. But it wasn't
fair. Xena
didn't deserve to be happy in her mind. She wanted to be happy. She
wanted to
have Hercules fawning over her, not Xena. Jealously was getting the
better of
They stopped outside of a small cottage in the center of town. Xena
knocked on
the door. The door soon swung open and a beautiful young woman was on
the other
side. She had long black hair and large blue eyes, just like Xena, only
girl seemed more beautiful. Gabrielle concluded that it was the smile.
"Xena! I wasn't expecting you until tomorrow!" the woman said.
"Tomorrow?" Gabrielle thought. How evil of Xena. Looks like Xena won
"Hello Ariel. This is Hercules and that is Gabrielle back there," Xena
Gabrielle was surprised that Xena remembered she was there.
Ariel had dinner cooking when they arrived, and they ate shortly after.
Gabrielle liked Ariel quite well and they talked all through dinner.
After they
had finished dinner, Hercules and Xena said they were headed to bed for
night. Ariel showed them to their rooms. He came back into the main
room where
Gabrielle still sat.
Ariel and Gabrielle talked for a long time that night. They got along
very well
together. After awhile, Gabrielle found herself looking at Ariel in a
sexual way. Gabrielle had never looked at another woman this way
before. She was
truly attracted to Ariel. She stared deep into Ariel's eyes. Ariel saw
staring at her. She felt it too.
Xena laid down in her bed, longing for Hercules. She wanted to make
love to him
so badly, but she knew Hercules was not like that. He was a nice guy
probably wouldn't sleep with her until they were properly married.
She reached down and unfastened her corset, lying it down next to her
bed. She
laid naked in her bed, thinking about what it would be like to fuck
She felt her juices flowing. She reached down to verify her wetness.
Her fingers
slid across her damp pussy lips. It felt good, so she continued to draw
fingers around her pussy. Next thing she knew, she had three fingers
inside of
herself, ramming in and out feverishly. With her free hand, she reached
up and
cupped her breast. She pinched at the nipple and rolled it between her
She started to pant and her moaning gradually increased. She had
forgotten how
pleasurable masturbation was.
Xena's fingers were soaked in her juices. She was fucking herself
knowing her orgasm was nearing. She could feel her pussy tightening
around her
hand. She wanted to cum so bad. Her moaning got uncontrollable and she
she may have alerted someone, but then her orgasm hit and she stopped
Xena let out a brutish scream as her fingers were bathed in hot
girlcum. She
hadn't cum in so long and it felt so good. She only wished Hercules had
had a
part in it.
Xena brought her fingers up to her mouth to taste her sweet nectar. It
was just
as good as she remembered. Though she had just had a wonderful orgasm,
still felt hot. She still wanted Hercules inside of her.
"Nice show," a voice said from the door. Xena looked up and saw
Hercules leaning
against the door frame.
Ariel reached over and placed her lips on Gabrielle's. Gabrielle didn't
because deep down inside, she wanted the same thing. Ariel reached down
cupped Gabrielle's breast. A wave of shock went through Gabrielle. No
one had
ever touched her this way before, but she liked the sensations she was
from Ariel's warm caresses. Ariel backed away and stood up out of her
"Let's go to my room and get more comfortable." Ariel said, leading
Gabrielle by
her hand.
Ariel set herself down on her bed and started unbuttoning her dress.
didn't know what to do. She was confused.
"I don't know if I can do this," Gabrielle said, creeping slowly
towards the
door. Then Ariel stood up, her dress falling to the ground. Gabrielle
stared at
Ariel's perfect body. Her ample breasts stood out in the dim light of
the room,
as did the thick patch of hair in between her legs. Gabrielle was
turned on by
this. She felt herself getting very wet.
"Come on Gabrielle, you know you want me," Ariel said seductively.
Gabrielle walked to where Ariel was standing. She reached down and took
a hold
of one of Ariel's large breasts. She weighed it in her hand, sliding
her thumb
over the nipple. Ariel sucked in deep as Gabrielle's thumb continued to
around her hard nipple.
As Gabrielle continued to massage her breast, Ariel reach over and
started to
undo her dress. As soon as Gabrielle felt Ariel's hand on her, she
stopped and
pulled off her dress as quickly as she could. Ariel fell back onto her
Gabrielle laid on top of her. Their lips met in a kiss. Ariel reached
up and
cupped one of Gabrielle's little tits, her nipples already hard and
Ariel traced her finger around the nipple, causing Gabrielle to
starting moaning
"Oh yeah!," Gabrielle shrieked, throwing her head back as Ariel's
fingers went
to work on her breasts.
"You like that don't you sweetheart?" Ariel asked, though she already
knew the
"God yes!" Gabrielle cried out. She had never felt such wonderful
sensations in
all her life.
"Hercules, damn, I didn't know you were standing.." Xena started to
"No need to apologize," Hercules said, taking his shirt off and walking
Xena's bed. He reached out and put his hand on Xena's cheek. Her face
lit up as
their flesh touched. They both had wanted this since they saw each
other earlier
in the day. Now it was time.
Their lips met, sending shivers down Xena's spine. Hercules' hands
moved up and
down her naked body, savoring her flesh between his fingers.
Eventually, his
hand made it to Xena's enormous breasts. He cupped and fondled the cups
in his
hand, weighing and massaging them.
"Ohhh," Xena purred as Hercules found her nipple with his groping
hands. He
rolled it between his fingers, feeling it harden and grow under his
"Make love to me," Xena gasped. Hercules wasted no time, pulling his
pants off
and sending them flying across the room. Xena looked down at Hercules'
tool, "Oh my!"
"I want you so bad," Hercules grunted as he positioned his cock at the
of Xena's dripping hole. Her legs flew up around his back, thrusting
him into
"Oh god!" she screamed as Hercules' cock slid into her. It was a lot
bigger than
any cock she had ever had before, and so much better. Hercules thrust
rhythmically into Xena, with her meeting every stroke.
"Harder! Oh yeah!" Xena screamed. Her hips bucked harder against
grinding cock. Pussy juice was pouring out of her, running down her
legs and
ass. It splashed all over Hercules with every thrust.
Hercules pulled his dick out of Xena, with much disapproval. Xena
stared at him
in disgust, as though he had just taken her favorite toy. He had. Then
reached down and turned Xena over onto her stomach. Xena felt Hercules'
press against her pussy from behind, and the smile returned to her
"Don't stop anymore!" Xena stated clearly in between moans. She felt
like she
was being torn in half by Hercules, but she didn't care, because at the
time she felt the most powerful orgasm of her life building inside of
"Lick my cunt!" Gabrielle groaned. Ariel instantly turned her attention
from Gabrielle's breast and towards her fiery red snatch.
"Tell me how this feels," Ariel said. Her finger slid slowly into
wet hole, meeting little resistance. Her thumb rubbed Gabrielle's
little clit as
her finger pumped into her pussy.
"That feels great!" Gabrielle exclaimed. She was now leaning back on
her elbows,
thrusting her pussy against Ariel's finger.
"Good." Ariel rammed her finger deeper into Gabrielle, causing her to
thrash and
kick. Gabrielle's moans got steadily louder, telling Ariel that her
orgasm was
near, so she sped up her pace, thrusting faster and faster. In between
Ariel managed to slip a second finger into Gabrielle's gaping sex,
giving her
even more of reason to scream.
"Uhhh!" Gabrielle cried out. She was unable to pronounce actual words,
but Ariel
knew what she meant anyway, and she felt it too. Gabrielle's pussy
contracted on
Ariel's finger as the warm rush of liquid hit it. Gabrielle thrash
about in the
bed, screaming and moaning as her orgasm washed over her body. Ariel
Gabrielle's facial expressions change as her orgasm roared inside of
her. Ariel
loved it, but now she wanted to cum too.
"Oh god," Gabrielle sighed. Her body dripped with sweat, and her cum.
She had
never felt this wonderful, none of her orgasms had ever been this
"My turn," Ariel said. Her tongue dragged along Gabrielle's face,
tasting her
sweat. Gabrielle seemed rather non-responsive to Ariel's warm tongue.
"Come on baby," Ariel said, kissing Gabrielle lightly on the lips, "I
you, now it's your turn to lick." Ariel was getting impatient. Her cunt
sopping wet and she needed some way to relieve it, even if it was
Ariel rolled over off of Gabrielle. Her finger quickly found her
pleasure spot,
rubbing it gently. Her lips puckered to the sky as her finger worked
clitoris between her fingers. With her other hand, Ariel cupped her
finding her nipple with her fingertips.
"Ohhh!" Ariel gasped while her fingers rolled and toyed with her
nipple. Out of
the corner of her eye, she caught a glimpse of Gabrielle beginning to
move, then
she felt another hand next to her pussy.
"I can't last much longer," Hercules groaned. His hands were attached
firmly to
Xena's round ass as his excruciatingly large tool pumped in and out of
her open
"Me either," Xena said, bucking her hips back against Hercules. He
released his
grip on her ass with one hand and brought it up under her large,
breast. His hand softly squeezed it as his fingers caressed the nipple.
That was
it for Xena, she let loose with a guttural moan, throwing her entire
body back
onto Hercules, forcing him in further while she came.
"Yessss!" she screamed. She thrashed and kicked for few more seconds
until her
orgasm began to subside. She slumped down on her stomach, breathing
Hercules pulled out of her, lying down next to her.
"That was so beautiful," Hercules whispered into Xena's ear. His tongue
traced her jaw line, kissing her sloppily all over her face. "So are
you," he
"Thank you," Xena said, slowly backing away from Hercules and sitting
up, "Now
let me repay the favor." Hercules was lying next to her on his side,
his cock
still mostly erect. Xena bent down and ran her finger down it, stopping
at the
head. Her hand took a firm grip on it and started to stroke it slowly.
"Oh yeah," Hercules moaned. Xena continued her treatment, using her
free hand to
cup and fondle his balls. Hercules was soon back to full size, his dick
a few inches. She lowered her head down and placed a wet kiss on the
head of his
"Now the real fun begins," Xena said, sliding her lips down about three
on his massive tool. Her tongue swirled around it, sending waves of
through Hercules. He was close to cumming before, and he was even
closer now.
"Oh shit! I can't.." was all Hercules could say before his load blasted
into the
back of Xena's throat. Torrents of his hot cum poured down her throat
as he
continued to spasm. Xena sucked the last bits of semen out of his shaft
as she
withdrew her lips.
"How was that?" Xena asked, smiling sharply at Hercules.
"That was great," he said, wrapping his arm around her shoulder as she
in next to him.
"Good," Xena said. Her eyes closed instantly, and she fell asleep. So
Gabrielle's novice tongue probed Ariel's hot snatch. She was not a very
pussy licker yet, but she was learning quickly. Her tongue splashed
occasionally hitting a pleasure spot, causing Ariel to squirm and moan.
Gabrielle soon found these pleasure spots and stuck to them, much to
delight. Ariel had been waiting to cum for some time now, and she was
about to,
right into Gabrielle's virgin mouth.
"Oh yeah sweetheart! I love that!" Ariel shouted as Gabrielle found her
clit and
swirled her tongue around it. She slid her finger into Aril up to the
knuckle. Ariel groaned. Gabrielle shoved her finger in the rest of the
Gabrielle continued to finger fuck her as she licked her clit as well.
"Oh god! Don't stop! I'm sooo close!" Ariel shouted as she writhed
Gabrielle's touch. Gabrielle pulled her finger out and went back to
licking. She used her tongue like a little cock, driving it forcefully
Ariel's swollen cunt. Gabrielle felt Ariel start shaking wildly. Her
thrashed on either side of her head.
"Oh yes! Yes!" Ariel screamed as her orgasm hit her. She thrust her
hips up into
Gabrielle's eager face, soaking her face with pussy juice. Gabrielle
sucked on
Ariel's pussy until she calmed down. By that time, Gabrielle had time
to swallow
as much of Ariel's beautiful juices as she could.
"Wow," Gabrielle said subtly, releasing her lips from Ariel's sore
"I know," Ariel gasped. Sweat rolled down her forehead and into her
eyes. It
stung badly, but she didn't care. She was still in the after shock of
"This will be a fun week," Gabrielle noted, lying her head on Ariel's
"That it will be," Ariel responded, wrapping her arm around Gabrielle.
They both
soon fell asleep.

Inventor/Advocate Explores the Liberal Arts/Technologyby Steve Charles • October 27, 2010 Share:
Linguist, inventor, entrepreneur, and advocate Bruce Baker '65 will discuss "The Liberal Arts' Impact Upon Emerging Technologies" during a special lecture at 4:15 p.m. Thursday in Baxter 101.
Baker is the inventor of the Minspeak device, a simple electronic keypad that uses a small set of icons to represent hundreds of words and phrases. Baker used his own liberal arts education and his knowledge of Latin, Greek, Hieroglyphics, and Mayan verbs to imagine how symbols and pictures with multiple meanings could be combined to create a visual language that enables the severely disabled to communicate effectively.
Baker's company, Semantic Compaction Systems, has developed the Minspeak device for use in more than a dozen languages around the world, and Baker himself has become one of the most outspoken advocates for the disabled.
Proclaimed a "Healthcare Hero" in his hometown of Pittsburgh, Baker is also the founder of the nonprofit SHOUT (Support Helps Others Use Technology), which studies and advocates for the employment of individuals who rely on augmentative devices such as Minspeak. The organization also hosts a regular conference drawing attendees from around the world.
An honorary degree from Wabash awarded Baker in 2006 reads: "You embody the best of the liberal arts spirit, turning your personal passion for language into a program that enriches the lives of people in need, and combining the ancient and modern into a seamless, life-giving enterprise."
Thursday's lecture is free of charge and open to the public.

Wabash Freshmen Provide Big Helpby Howard W. Hewitt • August 25, 2008 Share:
Wabash's Class of 2012 got an early introduction to "living humanely" Monday afternoon performing community service projects across the county.
See photo albums from several of the projects here, here, here, here, and here.
The community service tradition gives the new Wabash men a chance to get to know each other working side by and side and the opportunity to see and learn more about the Crawfordsville community.
And for many of the groups they help out it's a chance to knock out a project that might take their own volunteers days or weeks.
The students are divided into groups and sent out on 18 different projects. Students at Red Ball moving on the city's east side were working on donated fire trucks and equipment that will end up in small Mexican towns. Claude Johnson has spearheaded the effort for the Rotary Club and has been honored for that work at the local, state and national level.
"It's just amazing to think about how many people we're helping – people we'll never know," Johnson said. "But this project really does save lives. I recently talked with someone in Actopan, Mexico, where we had donated a fired truck. They made 945 runs last year alone. That same truck had made 11 runs the previous year when it sat in Perrysville."
The students sorted donated fire equipment and helped load it onto the trucks.
Some of the Monday jobs required simple muscle power. Wabash freshmen helped the First Baptist church remove old, unwanted playground equipment.
"This is absolutely great and these guys are helping us immensely," church member Ralph Anderson said. "We've wanted to do this for a year and a half, and with this much manpower, we can get it done today. We're happy to have the Wabash guys come out to lend us a hand."
As a matter of fact, when an electric saw failed the students used a little brain power and muscle - more than six guys grabbed a slide and twisted if off for removal.
Students all over town were having fun completing their projects, but perhaps none had a better time than the group walking dogs at the Animal Welfare League.
"We love having the student out here," said AWL Office Manager Sharon Maxwell. "It helps the dogs become socialized, and helps us see the behaviors that lead to a better match between dogs and adopters."
Most wouldn't think walking a dog would be anything new for our students, but one Wabash man chalked it up as a first-time experience.
"It is not typical to walk dogs in Bangladesh," said Galib Shishir from Bangladesh. "These are my first experiences with this sort of contact with mammals. It feels good to share the bond between man and animal."
For the first time a big group of students went to Waveland to help town leaders with a variety of projects. Guys scrubbed rust from pipes at the town water works, washed fire trucks for the volunteer fire department, planted flowers on the main street, and did painting and other work at the town park.
The day started off with something new for 2008. The men all walked downtown for lunch on Crawfordsville Main Street. Rosanne Junkins, Main Street Director, said the idea was to introduce the new students to the business community.
"We need to see some W's downtown and we want the Wabash guys to know that we're here and we have restaurants, places to buy things for moms, gift shops, banks to bank at, places to get your hair cut," she said. "So we want them to not only be a part of the Wabash community but be a part of our community and be a part of downtown."
Joey's restaurant provided sack lunches for the students before they went out on their service projects.

PreSonus Studio One music creation and production software gives you more than simply a powerful DAW; it's made to work seamlessly with your interfaces and controllers especially PreSonus hardware. You get unlimited tracks within a very easy-to-use single-window interface, with drag-and-drop convenience. In addition to its 64-bit processing capability, Studio One offers great mastering tools and a collection of plug-ins for a start-to-finish "in the box" recording solution!
PreSonus Studio One Music Creation and Production Software at a Glance:
The quality you need under the hood
Wide compatibility with interfaces plus easy configuration
Handy Start page, friendly navigation
Drag-and-drop simplicity
Stunning plug-ins and easy MIDI mapping
Create production-quality masters in the box
The quality you need under the hood
Studio One is based on a cutting-edge audio engine that delivers unparalleled sound and automatically switches between 32-bit and 64-bit floating-point processing on the fly (even with a 32-bit OS), ensuring the highest quality audio at all times.
Wide compatibility with interfaces plus easy configuration
Studio One is compatible with any ASIO-, Windows Audio-, or CoreAudio-compliant audio interface, including, of course, the entire line of PreSonus interfaces. Studio One recognizes your PreSonus interface, and preprogrammed templates automatically create software inputs and assign them to the appropriate hardware inputs on your PreSonus interface. You don't have to configure your software to work with your hardware-Studio One does it for you!
Studio One stores I/O configurations with each song, for each computer, and for each device driver. As a result, you can take a song to a friend's studio, use Studio One with their interface, and when you get back to your studio, Studio One will recall the original I/O configuration for the song, as if you never left. This works regardless of the interface.
Handy Start page, friendly navigation
A powerful tool that will appeal to professionals and hobbyists alike, the Start page allows you to access recent songs and projects, create new ones, configure external devices, and access tutorial information, demo songs, and a special PreSonus news feed. You can download updates and support materials directly from the Start page, without ever leaving Studio One.
Unlike most music-production programs, a single, straightforward workspace allows you to track, edit, and mix in one easy-to-navigate window that you can access with a single click. Or if you wish, you can separate the Console and Arrange views and can even drag them to separate displays. A compact Console view allows you to mix while viewing the arrangement so you don't have to bounce back and forth between windows. You also can switch to a larger Console view-yet another way that Studio One helps you work quickly while giving you maximum flexibility.
The Arrange view employs a waveform display with user-selectable color-coding and sample-level zoom. The Arrange view shows you the big picture, while the Edit view shows you the up-close details; used together, they virtually eliminate the need to zoom in and out. The Console view contains faders, solos, mutes, pans, and other expected elements. It also includes extensive sidechaining capability.
Studio One's Browser provides instant access to effects, loops, instruments, and other key elements. You can preview any audio clip, and if the clip has tempo information encoded, it will play synced to the song tempo.
Drag-and-drop simplicity
Studio One's powerful drag-and-drop function allows you to drag an audio clip, effect, or a virtual instrument from the Browser directly onto a track in the Arrange or Console view. Time stretching enables Studio One to automatically match tempo-encoded audio clips with Song tempo. You can copy an effect or a whole chain of effects-including settings-by simply dragging to a new track in the Console view. These are just a few of the many ways that Studio One's Browser and drag-and-drop implementation allow you to work quickly, without scrolling through pages of menus. It's a lot more fun too! No other music-production program even comes close.
Stunning plug-ins and easy MIDI mapping
Studio One supports ReWire and the VST and AU plug-in formats, including the new VST 3 plug-in specification, so Studio One is ready to use the newest plug-ins as they are released. It also utilizes automatic delay compensation, which keeps tracks in sync regardless of plug-in processing. But the most glittering gems are PreSonus's proprietary Native Effects Suite plug-ins, which include a wide variety of built-in effects, such as compressors, EQs, distortion, delay effects, amp modeling, modulation effects, and reverbs. These are brand-new plug-ins that process audio with 64-bit floating-point double precision. This is truly state-of-the-art technology. Three new PreSonus virtual instruments are also bundled with Studio One, including SampleOne, a virtual sampler that offers the fastest sample mapping available.
When it comes to MIDI mapping, Studio One changes the rules yet again. Of course, you can record MIDI parts and then tweak them in a piano-roll editor. But the real fun starts with Control Link, the most intuitive MIDI-mapping system available. Simply move the hardware and software controls to be linked and click the Link button for instant mapping. In Global mode, hardware and software controls maintain a one-to-one relationship, so a hardware control is linked directly to one software control for the entire program. In Focus mode, control maps only apply to a particular plug-in, so you can make different control maps for each plug-in, and the Focus map is stored with the plug-in, giving you no-sweat, context-sensitive MIDI mapping. This works with all parameters of any VST or AU plug-in. At last, a music-production application that makes controller mapping as easy and flexible as it always should have been!
Create production-quality masters in the box
The Project page is a complete mastering solution that is fully integrated with the rest of the program. The Project page includes all the necessary tools to create a production-quality master, including effects, crossfades, volume envelopes, and meters. You can make disc images, burn Red Book CDs, and create digital-release albums, complete with metadata. In addition, Studio One creates an intelligent link when songs are placed in a Project for mastering, automatically updating any changes to the original tracks or subsequent mixes. From basic tracking to multiple-release mastering, Studio One is the complete solution.
PreSonus Studio One Music Creation and Production Software Features:
Elegant single-window work environment
Powerful drag-and-drop functionality
Unlimited audio tracks, MIDI tracks, virtual instruments, buses, and FX channels
Content browser with convenient sort options and preview player
Integrated mastering solution with automatic mix updating, waveform editing, effects, Red Book CD burning, and digital release

A parrot, to be exact.
Monday afternoon the Lipscomb Lady Bisons soccer practice was sent into disarray when a large bird flew over the field on Franklin Road. The bird landed in the bushes on the edge of the practice field.
"It's several different colors," Lady Bisons coach Jon Ireland said. "It's a beautiful bird."
The players, who may qualify as extras on an Animal Planet Network show, captured a parrot standing approximately 1 ½-foot tall. It is in a large cage and resting quietly and comfortably in the Lady Bisons dressing room.
The parrot flew so low that it just missed by inches being hit by kicked soccer balls on two occasions. It was finally attracted to water that the players offered. Goalkeeper Erin Zerio grabbed the parrot and placed it in the cage that was brought to the field by Lipscomb high school soccer coach Nathan Proffitt.
"We couldn't leave it out there," Ireland said. "It would have died.
"It looks like it has been outside for awhile. We are already attached to it."
The parrot did provide a distraction for the Lady Bisons after the release of the Atlantic Sun Preseason Poll.
The Lady Bisons received news that they are ranked 10th by the coaches. USC Upstate was selected 11th.
"It's not a surprise," Ireland said. "It is based on how we have done in the past.
"We will definitely talk about it. We have not shown we should be ranked higher."

The Stonewall National Museum and Archives is writing a new chapter.
Already the largest circulating library of gay literature and periodicals nationally, the Fort Lauderdale center is now aiming for more: with a new "Dear Abby" exhibit; the launch of a separate 2,000-square-foot gallery in Wilton Manors; and the hopes of becoming affiliated with the Smithsonian Institution in Washington, D.C.
Just last Thursday, the center had its biggest fundraiser, featuring former "Will & Grace" actress Megan Mullally at the Parker Playhouse in Fort Lauderdale.
Behind the changes is the repository's new executive director, David Jobin, who...

Terry and Doug's NYC Wedding: A toast to love, commitment, and time
April 22, 2013
When Terry Goldman and Doug Behl planned their wedding for August 4, 2012 in New York City, they knew they were taking a risk with the weather. "We had to embrace that our wedding was going to be smack dab in the hottest part of an NYC summer - so we ran with the best parts of summer," Terry said. To reflect the summer feeling, they incorporated bold neon colors into their ceremony and brought along a shaved ice stand, clusters of wildflowers, vintage rock candy, and darts for escort cards - including many elements that Doug, a graphic designer, designed himself. If it was going to be a hot day, they figured, they might as well make the most of it. (Photos by Emily Wren Photography)
Fortunately, the heat hardly interfered with their wedding ceremony, which they hosted at the northern tip of Manhattan at the gorgeous Fort Tyron Park, which overlooks the Hudson River. Later, they ventured to the New Leaf Cafe, a beautiful restaurant nearby the park, for their reception. It was the perfect day for them to celebrate their three and a half year relationship and their commitment to each other in front of their friends, family members, and loved ones.
Doug and Terry met five years ago at a dinner with one of Terry's best friends. They made it through a heated political debate during the dinner, and afterward became fast friends. They had their first date about a year after meeting each other - Coraline in 3D. "During the film, Doug reached over and held my hand," Terry said. "I wasn't aware it was a date - and it's something Doug still likes to joke about to this day."
Two years before the ceremony, while the couple was vacationing in Antigua, Doug arranged a proposal for Terry, guiding him through key memories and moments from their relationship. While they were building a sand castle on the beach, Doug hid a message in a bottle in the sand. Terry dug up the bottle, opened it, and found a map, which Doug had meticulously designed with nods to his life with Terry. "He personalized it with locations of things we had seen together or done together," Terry said. "He included 'Plains of Coraline' to tie back to our first date, 'Cupcake Strait' for our love of cupcakes, and 'Sea of Slitherban' for a water park we went to years ago." On the back, Doug wrote, "Argh Matey (and by matey, I mean you, Terry Goldman). Will ye have my hand in marriage?"
Before getting engaged, Terry and Doug began the process of becoming parents through adoption. "I want to be able to give a child the best childhood a parent can give, just as my parents did for me," said Doug, who was himself adopted from South Korea as a child. The couple was approved last year and are now waiting to be selected by a birth mother.
As Doug and Terry prepared to get married, they thought about the life they had built together, the ways that marriage would strengthen their commitment, and how this legal bond would protect their future family. "Marriage tells the world that you have found a partner for life," Terry said. "It's about love, companionship, a lifelong journey with someone, and being protected under the law."
The couple was excited that they had the freedom to marry in New York - but they each recognized the fact that if they lived in Texas, where Terry grew up, or California, where Doug was raised, they would not have this same freedom.
Beyond that, the couple knows that although they are legally married in New York, their marriage is not respected by the federal government; The so called Defense of Marriage Act deprives legally married same sex couples of over 1,100 protections and responsibilities that marriage provides. "We got our first dose of this recently when we had to do our taxes for the first time as a married couple," Terry said. "We had to file single with the federal government but married with New York state."
No one has the secret to what makes people fall in love and how to turn that love into a lifelong commitment. But Derek Hartley, one of Terry's longest friendships and the host of Out Q's Derek & Romaine Show on Sirius Radio, did a pretty great job at delivering his perspective on it during his toast at the wedding. "In the name of good taste, just consider this one man's opinion," he said. "It's a theory based more on observation than direct experience. What is love?" He paused. "No, seriously, I'm asking - I've been single a really long time."
Here's an excerpt from his toast:
* * *
I like to say that the only difference between love and stalking is mutual attraction. Love is a two-way street. But there's more to it than a simple 1 + 1 = 2. Because simple math doesn't get you here. Google Maps can't even get you here. I'm not even sure where we are.
Love takes two people who love. It takes two people who want to love. And it takes two people who want to be loved. I know that sounds like six people - but it's two people.
Two people doing three extraordinary things at the same time: Loving, wanting to love, and wanting to be loved.
I remember when Terry told me about Doug, when they first started dating. I knew it was different. I could hear it in his voice and the way he spoke about him. And I knew Terry had found love, and was ready to love and be loved.
Love is about time. Because life is long and life is short, seemingly all at once. ... Gore Vidal died this week, and he wrote a few years ago about being with Howard Austen, his partner of 54 years, as Howard lay on his death bed. "Didn't it go by awfully fast?" Howard asked. "Of course it had," Gore wrote. "We had been too happy. And the gods cannot bear the happiness of mortals."
The time we have - that each of us has, together - is fleeting. .... The good time goes by so fast. All of you, cherish the amazing moments along the way. Stretch them out. Make them last. And ignore the bad stuff that slows it all down - like any of my jokes you didn't laugh at.
In All About Eve, there's a great toast when one of the couples is getting married. "To each of us, and all of us, may we always be this close. May we never be farther apart."
And to my friends - my dear friends Doug and Terry - today is happily ever after, and tomorrow is the whole world.
May it all go by too fast.

PD James Classic TV Show
Roy Marsden stars as PD James literary creation Adam Dalgliesh. The methodical copper solves a series of most heinous crimes from the gruesome to the macabre. The series includes some of James award winning novels as faithful TV adaptations.
PD James Fan Tributes37 leah pallaris from australia: i love desires and devices, Roy marsden was very good in this, PD JAMES masterpiece.he really is what true star quality, is all about..CHARMING, DEDICATED and a real gentleman...
36 Lyndsey from East Snglia: I think Sheila Allen plays the part of Matron Mary Taylor in Shroud for a Nightingale beautifully. I agree bring back Roy Marsden!!
35 Eugenie Quidenus from Melbourne, Australia: P.D. James' books are always a pleasure and Roy Marsden was a unique Commander Dalgliesh. Why is he not in this role anymore?
34 Bobbie M from Warrenville IL: P.D. James is the only reason I started to read fiction mysteries. Previously, I only read non-fiction. Her writing is superb in form, creativity and description; I never want her stories to end. Can't wait to read the newest! On DVD/TV, Roy Marsden is THE one and only Adam Dalgliesch.
33 Ian Pollard from Northumberland UK: I have just been watching Death of an Expert Witness for the third time! It is as good as it was on the first viewing.
32 Paul Bentley from Lancashire: FOUND IT! Finally after looking for months, I have found the theme music by Richard Harvey. You can download it from emule file sharing under "A shroud for a nightingale". Or contact me by e-mail email@example.com
31 Nick from Hove, UK: For those who've been asking, the theme music from the series is called 'Elegy' by Richard Harvey. I'm not sure whether it's available on CD but it was certainly released as a single record in the 1980s. Hope that helps?
30 frank o'connor from Connecticut, USA: I too enjoy Roy Marsden as Inspect. Dalgleisch. He's so believable as a poet as his poems occasionally come into the script.
29 Coralie from England: I enjoy watching PD James/Inspector Dalgleish but it's the haunting violin piece of music at the intro/end that get's me - does anyone know what it's called and where I can get it?
28 Cynthia from stockport, england.: I would just like to reaffirm:- Roy Marsden as the only Adam Dalgliesh! Also best atmospheric theme tune ever! It just takes you there!
27 Vernon Shelton from Oxford, MS, USA: In "Death in Holy Orders" it seemed to me that Martin Shaw was trying to play Roy Marsden rather than Adam Dalgleish. I wish that Marsden would be cast as Dalgleish in any future productions.
26 Martin Fuseli from Cambridgeshire: Like others I was very doubtful that casting Martin Shaw would work, given my admiration for Roy Marsden in his long run in the role - and that I can't remember ever seeing Shaw in anything I liked! But to my surprise I found no difficulty in accepting him once the series started. He is a more intense and physical actor than Roy Marsden, which makes it more believable both that the character has risen to the rank of Commander and that he is a poet. Also, life is unfair: although Marsden is only 4 years older than Shaw, he already looked past police retirement age well before the end of his run in the part - I was watching A Mind to Murder last night for the first time since 1995 and was shocked by how haggard he looked even then. Sadly, there is no way he could have been a convincing AD some 10 years later.
25 brenda from england: Roy Marsden was indeed Commander Dalgleish - no disrespect to Martin Shaw but Roy Marsden played the part to absolute perfection.
I was gripped with the stories from the very first one televised.
Ive also been trying to find the theme tune, but dont know what it is called - it is so haunting and belongs to Dalgleish
24 Jeanette Lau from Sacramento,California: I would like to see Roy Marsden back as Adam Dalgleish. He is my favorite of all the English actors.
23 Janice Monroe from Salt Lake City: I believe it was unfair to have the brilliant actor Martin Shaw play Adam Dalgleish. He is such a great actor but to expect him to be accepted in the perfected roll by Roy Marsden was a mistake by the producers. It is like having someone else play Poirot except David Suchet or another Sherlock Holmes other than Jeremy Brett. If the actors are not available "Leave well enough alone." The old saying: "If it ain't broken, don't fix it."I'd rather watch re-runs of the originals every night (which we are doing here on some stations in the USA) than a new substitute.
22 Candace Noble from Iowa, USA: I looked forward to seeing the unbending of Dalgliesh (as played by Roy Marsden) in Death in Holy Orders and was quite surprised to see him replaced. While Martin Shaw did a journeyman's job at the role, it was not the same without Marsden. Why the replacement? (the rest of the story was well handled, and the inclusion of Robert Hardy was a treat).
21 Sharmistha Singh from India: I admire PD James as a writer and have read many of her novels, i am a real thorough reader when it comes to mystery novels and was a bit dismayed to see a rather blunder mistake in her book 'A Taste For Death', on Pg 358, romantic novelist Millicent Gentle says that as her telephone was 'out of order',she had to take her boat and go across to the restraunt black swan but then on Pg 361,
when she brings Paul Berowne back to her cottage,he asks her for the telephone to make a call and she leaves him to be private-which is a contradiction and it effects the story as that phone call to Black Swan to cancel his appointment for dinner has been treated as a vital clue.
Hope you check it out and inform me if its right.
Except for this dampner, it was a good book.
20 Evelyn Bethel from Las Vegas, NV: P.D. James said Roy Marsden
was not her vision of Adam Dalgleish - Is that why there was a change of actor for Death in Holy Orders. I did not enjoy watching that movie because Roy Marsden wasn't in it.
19 Cynthia L. Elliott from Washington, D.C.: As many other contributors have noted, I, too, have read all of P. D. James' books (including "The Maul and the Peartree which, by the way, helped me to enjoy even more the brilliant Museum of the City of London). As Mr. Mason from Taunton says:"There is only one Adam Dalgleish - Roy Marsden." An interesting subnote to this is that "Death in Holy Orders" was quoted as P.D. James' favorite book to write.
I found "Death in Holy Orders" one of the few books I was slow completing.
To me "A Taste for Death" will always be the quintessential Dalgliesh on film. Enough, back then, to inspire me to finally learn how to program the VCR when it showed the second time. What I don't know is why was Roy Marsden not chosen for Adam Dalgliesh this time?
18 Mary-Lou Chall from Detroit, Michigan, USA: It was a shock to see Martin Shaw playing Adam Dalgliesh instead of Roy Marsden in Death in Holy Orders. I've always thought that Marsden is the perfect Dalgliesh adding enormously to each P.D. James story. Of course James is a fantastic writer who pulls you into her stories. Well, I'm willing to give the new guy a chance ... I must say that the superb actors, in the British series we see here in the States are a pleasure to watch. Even the smallest of roles are played to perfection.
October 9, 2004
17 Gerry Figg-Hoblyn from California: There is no other actor that can portray Adam Dalgleish like Roy Marsden. He is PD James character to the tee.
The recent 1st episode of Death is Holy Orders was a shock, no theme music, and a new guy, that although he is a very good actor, is not the sleek,sophisticated, well dressed Adam that Marsden is.
Martin Shaw is like the English version of Peter Falk's Colombo. Disheveled, uncombed and just not the same.
16 clive ramsden from ireland: I am a huge fan of pd james,and i have read most of the novels. I also love the tv series and think roy marsden is brilliant as adam dalgliesh.
15 DAVID MASON from TAUNTON,SOMERSET,UK: PD James is my second favourite author(ess) after Dickens. There is only 1 Adam Dalgleish - Roy Marsden. The screen adaptation of Death in Holy Orders was a disaster due to the miscasting of Martin Shaw as Dalgleish.
14 tiny oldfield from south africa: With the exception of "The Murder Room", I have read all of Mz James' novels. I enjoy her writing, and am looking forward to reading her latest book.
13 K.K. James from Wirral: I recently bought the DVD Death of an Expert Witness starring Roy Marden. I enjoyed his portrayal of Dalgleish. I remember seeing the series of adaptations of PD James novels and would like to see more on DVD or shown again on television. It is a mystery to me why we don't see them on either medium, after all we do see other programmes from the past in both areas. I love crime stories and especially like PD James. I have spent considerable time in East Anglia during my life and am able to visualise some of the locations. Seeing Dalgliesh portrayed on the screen helps to bring the character to life even if only by association.
12 Gary Roberts from Leicestershire: I bought the Universal-Playback double-disc DVD version of DEATH OF AN EXPERT WITNESS (1983), and was most impressed. Although some of the camerawork and lighting are, by today's ultra-high-tech standards, a little primitive, and the video technique a bit harsh, there are many compensations. Roy Marsden's performance as Adam Dalgliesh is nothing short of excellent, his naturalistic acting style suiting his interpretation of the formidable detective most effectively. Marsden dominates nearly all of the scenes in which he appears, but there is still plenty of room to appreciate the great work of such cosily-identifiable A-grade thesps as Barry Foster and Geoffrey Palmer, both of whom are superb. Ray Brooks's interpretation is pleasingly in-synch with the character portrayed in Ms James's marvellous novel, and Meg Davies is wondrously sexy as Foster's scheming half-sister. Malcolm Terris is also great as Doyle, the sweaty bent copper who has plenty to hide, and his full-blooded performance adds much to the proceedings. Better than practically anything on TV today, and an extremely faithful and creditably calmly-paced work that does much justice to the author's original vision, rather than cutting corners to keep within an allotted schedule. And that title music is wonderful, too...
11 Tjitske de Jong from The Netherlands: I love the music that goes with the tv-series. Was this written especially for the series or is it an existing piece of music and is it available on CD?
Thank you
10 phillip campbell from london: I would be most grateful to find the name of the theme music of the Anglia TV productions of 'Dalgleish'.Most haunting and most celestial.Many thanks from a very long admirer of P.D.James
9 Caroline Muncey from East anglia: I loved "Shroud for a Nightingale" when it was shown years and years ago on the television. Can anyone tell me what became of the actrress Andree Evans, who played Sister Hilda Rolfe?
Caroline Muncey
8 william from glasgow: only last week at the international book festival, i met p d james.someone asked me if i was P.D JAMES
7 Richard Sharpe from Sheffield: PD James Adam Dalgliesh book are some of the best books to read. Only to Colin Dexter Inspector Morse are as good as the Dalgliesh books. Also Roy Marsden plays Dalgliesh like any world class actor. Like the late and great, John Thaw did with Morse, David Suchet with Poriot and David Jason with Frost.
6 Alan Paterson from Scotland: Quite apart from the brilliant series itself, one of the highlights from my point of view was the superb signature tune which accompanied the series.
5 Pat Haggar from Hants: One of the best whodunnit series on television. Roy Marsden is totally believeable as Dalgleish. Please put me out of my misery and tell me what music is used for the titles and credits.
Thank you.
4 Derdla from New Zealand: I used to buy the PD James paperbacks and read the endings first - so I knew whodunnit.... all this, of course, before I'd watch the tv series!
3 IVA JACOBS from BLOOMFIELD, CONNECTICUT USA: P.D.James in my book is the very best.
I have been fortunate enough to view some of the series on A & E Network here in the USA.
Unfortunately, Granada TV is not available to us even on digital here in Connecticut.
2 Alan Paterson from Falkirk, Scotland: Love the programmes, classic whodunnit,where the viewer is left to find the clues themselves, and (occasionally) solve the case before Mr Dalgleish
1 Wendy Laing from Australia: One of my favourite moments was seing AD covered in mud in 'A mind to Murder' running along the beach at the end. AD is usually so well heeled and in control!

Prostate-specific antigen (PSA) is a protein produced by prostate cells.
The PSA test is done to help diagnose and follow prostate cancer in men.
Alternative Names
Prostate-specific antigen; Prostate cancer screening test
How the test is performed
A blood sample is needed.
How to prepare for the test
Make sure your doctor knows all the medicines you are taking. Some drugs cause your PSA level to be falsely low.
No other special preparation is usually needed.
How the test will feel
When the needle is inserted to draw blood, some people feel moderate pain. Others feel only a prick or stinging sensation. Afterward, there may be some throbbing or a slight bruise. These soon go away.
Why the test is performed
Reasons for a PSA test:
- This test may be done to screen for prostate cancer.
- It is also used to follow patients after prostate cancer treatment to see if the cancer has come back.
- If a
healthcare provider feels the prostate glandis not normal during physical exam
Measuring the PSA level can increase the chance of finding prostate cancer when it is very early. But the value of PSA screening for prostate cancer is debated. No single answer fits all men.
Before having the test, discuss with your doctor both the reasons to have and not to have a PSA test.
If you choose to be tested, the PSA is most often done every year to screen men:
- Age 50 to 75, if no risk factors are present.
- Starting around age 40 to 45 if they have a higher chance of developing prostate cancer. A family history of prostate cancer (especially a brother or father) and being African-American are more common risk factors.
Normal Values
The PSA test result cannot diagnose prostate cancer. Only a
Your doctor will look at your PSA result and consider your age, ethnicity, medicines you are taking, and other things to decide whether your PSA is normal and whether you need more tests.
A normal PSA level is considered to be 4.0 ng/ml (nanograms per milliliter of blood).
- For men in their 50s or younger, a PSA level should usually be below 2.5.
- Older men often have slightly higher PSA levels than younger men.
What abnormal results mean
A high PSA level has been linked to an increased chance of having prostate cancer.
PSA testing is an important tool for detecting prostate cancer, but it is not foolproof. Other conditions can cause a rise in PSA, including:
- A larger prostate
- Prostate infection (prostatitis)
- Urinary tract infection
- Recent tests on your bladder (cystoscopy) or prostate (biopsy)
- Catheter tube recently placed into your bladder to drain urine
Your doctor will think about the following things when deciding on the next step:
- Your age
- If you had a PSA test in the past and how much and how fast your PSA level has changed
- If your doctor finds a prostate lump during your exam
- Other symptoms you may have
- Other risk factors for prostate cancer, such as ethnicity and family history
Men at high risk may need to have more tests. Your doctor may recommend:
- Repeating your PSA test, most often sometime within 3 months
- A prostate biopsy
- A follow-up test called a free PSA (fPSA). The lower the level of this test, the more likely it is that prostate cancer is present.
- A urine test called PCA-3
If you have been treated for prostate cancer, the PSA level can show if treatment is working or if the cancer has come back. Often, PSA level rises before there are any symptoms, sometimes months or years beforehand.
What the risks are
Veins and arteries vary in size from one patient to another and from one side of the body to the other. Obtaining a blood sample from some people may be more difficult than from others.
Other risks associated with having blood drawn are slight, but may include:
- Excessive bleeding
- Fainting or feeling light-headed
- Hematoma (blood accumulating under the skin)
- Infection (a slight risk any time the skin is broken)

(The following is from a press release)
The Kingsmen Shakespeare Festival will open its 18th season with a production of Twelfth Night set in the vaudeville era.
One of Shakespeare's greatest comedies, Twelfth Night will be performed at 8 p.m. June 27-29, July 3, July 5-6, and July 11-13 in Kingsmen Park at California Lutheran University in Thousand Oaks.
Directed by CLU alumnus Kevin P. Kern, the play depicts a world out of kilter with disguises and wacky slapstick moments. Scenes are set in a speakeasy with Feste, played by Reduced Shakespeare Company member Michael Faulkner, as a singing vaudeville comedian. Original music composed by Christopher Hoag adds to the period feel.
Shad Willingham, a theater faculty member at California State University, Northridge, will portray Orsino, the Duke of Illyria. Willingham recently studied with John Barton, the world's leading teacher of acting Shakespeare. Elyse Mirto, who will play Lady Olivia, was Gertrude in last summer's Kingsmen production of Hamlet.
Kern made his directorial debut with the festival in 2008, setting As You Like It in the 1970s. He is the former director of the Kingsmen Shakespeare Apprentice Company and Summer Theatre Camp and a member of both the Screen Actors Guild and Actor's Equity Association. His credits include feature films, commercials and theater, including performances on the Kingsmen Shakespeare stage. He helped create and served as the first artistic director of the Pensacola Shakespeare Theatre, a small professional company modeled on the Kingsmen Shakespeare Company.
An assistant professor of theater at the University of Mount Union in Ohio, Kern is producing A Midsummer Night's Dream for the inaugural season of Shakespeare at the Castle to be performed at the 110-year-old Glamorgan Castle in late July. Last fall, he directed Oceans Apart, a play he wrote based on the stories of Vietnam veteran and CLU theater arts professor Michael J. Arndt. In September, he will present a paper on the incorporation of actor training into an education curriculum in Crete, Greece.
The festival grounds open at 5:30 p.m. for pre-show picnicking and entertainment.
The Kingsmen Shakespeare Company is the professional theater company of CLU. The nonprofit organization coordinates apprentice programs for professional and aspiring Shakespearean actors, an educational tour program in local schools, and summer theater camps for youth.
General admission is $20 for adults and free for those under 18. Individual tickets are available at the door only. Lawn boxes are $75 to $110. For lawn box reservations, call 805-493-3014 or visit www.kingsmenshakespeare.org.

Groesbeck, a sixth-grader, is the daughter of Danette Groesbeck and Brad Groesbeck.
The staff and faculty of HMK said Groesbeck was chosen, in part, because she "is diligent in her work and in her attitude about school."
Staff members said Groesbeck is "a wonderful person, not just a student," and noted that she "always provides her best in her work and her studies."
Moab Mayor Dave Sakrison and the Moab City Council presented the award to Jones at the Feb. 8 council meeting.
The HMK Students of the Month are selected by the faculty and staff of the school based on their all-around citizenship and their involvement within their school. The city of Moab presents the award as part of an ongoing effort to foster and recognize the contributions of young people within the community in practicing good citizenship.

Just one day before the official iPhone 5 and iOS 6 launch announcements, Google has rolled out its new and improved YouTube app for iPhone and iPod touch.
Whether or not you're planning to upgrade to iOS 6 (though, really, why wouldn't you?), the new YouTube iOS app is well worth the download. A compact version of what we already find on its desktop app, the new YouTube is superior to the existing iOS YouTube app — and is nearly identical to YouTube for Android, with a few tweaks
A left side panel that includes a channel guide, subscribed channels, and other video content can be accessed by swiping the left side of the the screen. Share functionality that integrates with iOS has been added, as has the ability to view comments while watching a video. Search has been updated with an auto-complete feature that will suggest similar videos as you type in your search query. And tens of thousands of official music videos, a significant change that indicates that YouTube has finally integrated ads onto the new iOS app.
YouTube has been a long-time partner with Apple, providing Google with real estate on all iOS devices for a native YouTube app that sat front and center on the front page of Apple's mobile devices. When the licensing period ended and Apple decided to part ways, Google confirmed that YouTube would be absent from iOS 6 devices. Mobile usage of the YouTube app on iOS devices could dip slightly due to the lack of a pre-installed YouTube app on iOS devices. Currently, as much as 25 percent of total YouTube views come from its mobile apps, which equates to a whopping 1 billion daily mobile views.
While the change may be bad for Google, it seems like a win for users. YouTube's native app was noticeably neglected by Apple. Under the terms of the partnership, Apple was responsible for designing the app in the first place based on YouTube guidelines. So the infrequent updates and outdated user interface were Apple's fault, not Google's.
While YouTube lost valuable real estate and Google scrambled to design a standalone iPhone app in preparation for the iOS 6 release, Google is finally free from Apple's regulations, and we can expect regular updates Google develops a product that provides a superior user experience for its users.
For now, the app will be available for the iPhone and iPod touch only, but YouTube has confirmed that its team is working on an optimized version for the iPad, which will debut in a few months. The app was released internationally beginning today, and it can be downloaded here.

Sadly, things are still not that great. A couple of close family members are pretty sick, and one of my cats has been very poorly for the last month or so. And on top of that, I'm really busy with work stuff - in a good way, but on top of everything else that's been going on this year, I'm just mentally and physically cream-crackered.
So I decided to put the blog on hold.
But then... Then I went and had a meal at Angela Hartnett's long-awaited new restaurant, Murano. And I couldn't resist taking my camera. And then I thought I might as well share the photos. So here they are. (Apologies for the overall standard - the lighting wasn't that great for a point-and-shoot, plus I took the photos in a bit of a hurry, because it really wasn't the kind of place to be taking snaps, and I didn't want to incur the wrath of fellow diners.)
If you want the words, I suggest you read a review here. It says everything I would have said. I'm actually wondering if the reviewer stole my brain.
I hope that gives you something to be going on with. I'll try to be back soon, but I can't promise anything, ok? Be good in the meantime, and take care of yourselves.
