Born 80 years ago in Milton, Ontario, just west of Toronto, James Enio Sclisizzi joined the Detroit Red Wings for his first-ever NHL game on April 5, 1947, a semi-final playoff contest against the Toronto Maple Leafs. Sid Abel was out with pleurisy and Cliff Simpson injured his shoulder so Sclisizzi was summoned from the Wings' AHL affiliate in Indianapolis where he had scored 20 goals during the regular season.
"('Hockey Night in Canada' broadcaster) Foster Hewitt couldn't pronounce my last name, so he said, 'I'm going to call you Jim Enio,'" laughs Sclisizzi, recalling the story. "Hey, I was a young guy getting a chance to play in the NHL so who was I to argue with Foster Hewitt? I was new. I didn't want to cause a ruckus."
The Leafs buried Detroit 6-1 that night, ending the Red Wings dreams of winning the Stanley Cup for another year. Enio returned to Milton, but that fall, was in the line-up when Detroit opened the 1947-48 season at home hosting the Chicago Blackhawks. Detroit doubled the Hawks 4-2, but Enio was sent back to Indianapolis where he spent most of that season. He returned to the parent club for the playoff run and then was part of the Red Wings' roster when Detroit faced New York in the semi-final, but did not dress in the Stanley Cup final against the Toronto Maple Leafs.
Foster Hewitt had a field day pronouncing 'Sclisizzi' in 1948-49 when Enio was a regular leftwinger with the Red Wings, scoring 9 goals and 8 assists in 50 regular season contests. In the postseason, Enio played in the first three games of the semi-final against Montreal but didn't dress again until the final two games of the season two losses to the Stanley Cup-winning Toronto Maple Leafs. Sclisizzi played on a line with fellow rookies Freddy Glover and Jerry Reid.
Again in 1949-50, Enio started the season with the Detroit Red Wings but after the first 4 games, found himself back in Indianapolis with Glover and Reid. The Red Wings dominated the NHL, finishing the regular season in first place with 88 points; 11 more than second place Montreal.
Detroit defeated the reigning Stanly Cup champion Maple Leafs in seven games during the semi-final, then met the New York Rangers for the Stanley Cup. It took seven strenuous contests to decide a winner but when the dust had cleared, the ledger showed the Detroit Red Wings as Stanley Cup champions for the first time since 1943. A goal by Pete Babando at 8:31 of second overtime gave Detroit the win. Enio Sclisizzi cheered on his pals from his Indianapolis apartment.
The Cup was engraved that summer, and Detroit recognized Enio Sclisizzi's 9-game contribution during the regular season by including him on Lord Stanley's trophy. But wait! When the bands on the Stanley Cup were re-designed to standardize the sizes in 1957, the name 'Enio Sclisizzi' was left off!
This year, 288 golfers supported the fund-raiser, which also took 40 volunteers to organize and execute. 100 guests, including Hall of Fame defenseman Harry Howell and Enio Sclisizzi, also took part. The Stanley Cup made its appearance at 8 am and was placed at the 18th hole. As each foursome arrived, they got their photographs taken with Lord Stanley's legacy.
Modest but proud, Enio discussed the Stanley Cup omission. "I was called up to the Wings for injury purposes that season," he explained. "During the finals, they brought me up again but I sat on the bench. We won in eight straight games they didn't want to tinker with the chemistry."
Enio was traded with Fred Glover to Chicago that summer and played 14 more NHL games. He spent the remainder of his career in the minors, scoring proficiently with American Hockey League and Western Hockey League teams. A crosscheck from behind ended his career in 1959.
Although he is a Stanley Cup champion, Enio doesn't recall much about the series that took place 53 years ago. "It's hard enough to remember what I had for breakfast," he jokes.
Part of the Toronto Maple Leafs organization since 1950, Chadwick made his NHL debut on February 8, 1956 tending goal for Toronto when regular netminder Harry Lumley was injured. In his first contest, Chadwick held the mighty Montreal Canadiens to a 1-1 tie, followed by a 1-1 tie in his second contest. In his third game, Ed earned his first big league shutout, blanking the Rangers 5-0. After yet another 1-1 draw, this time against Chicago, Ed earned another shutout, slamming the door on Boston 1-0. As he wiped the sweat from his forehead and undid his goal pads, Ed was told that Lumley was ready to return and was sent back to the Winnipeg warriors of the WHL, even though he had yet to lose in the NHL, had posted 2 shutouts and had a microscopic goals against average of 0.60.
But although Ed Chadwick's netminding never backstopped a Stanley Cup champion, he has his name engraved on the trophy three times. After retiring as a player in 1968, Ed turned his attention to scouting. Through his career, Chadwick scouted for the Pittsburgh Penguins, Oakland Seals, the New York Islanders and Buffalo Sabres before joining the Edmonton Oilers in 1981. Assisting in the compilation of a championship squad through the Oilers' dynasty years, Ed Chadwick has his name on the Stanley Cup in 1984-85, 1986-87 and 1989-90. By the way, Harry Howell was a scout for that Oilers' championship squad in 1990, too.
After visiting the course, Chadwick took the Cup to the reception, where caterers were laying out a buffet of chicken, ribs and salads. As each foursome completed its day, they retired to the reception building where they could get a photograph taken with Lord Stanley's gift. A raffle was held for sports memorabilia. One magnificent piece was a framed montage of every Toronto Maple Leaf goalie, including Ed Chadwick, who shone during the 1950's sandwiched between Hall of Famers Harry Lumley and Johnny Bower.
By 8 pm, the Cup had been packed away and a grateful Ed Chadwick waved goodbye following an entertaining and very successful day.
George Armstrong first wore the Maple Leaf blue and white for two games during December 1949. A regular since 1952-53, Armstrong had proven to be an effective forward but an even stronger leader.
The Toronto Maple Leafs struggled through the 1950's missing the playoffs in 1953, 1957 and 1958. In each of the remaining years (1952, 1954, 1955 and 1956), the Detroit Red Wings rolled over Toronto in the semi-finals in what was becoming an annual ritual, much to the amusement of the Motown faithful. But things changed in 1959. Coach Punch Imlach had taken the reins of the team and Johnny Bower had taken over from Ed Chadwick in the Leafs' crease. All-star Red Kelly had been secured from the Detroit Red Wings. The young Turks Carl Brewer, Bobby Baun, Bob Pulford and Billy Harris from the Marlboros and Frank Mahovlich, Dick Duff and Tim Horton from St. Mike's had hit their stride. And George Armstrong had assumed the captaincy prior to the 1957-58 season.
By 1966-67, the Maple Leafs were appearing tired. Netminder Johnny Bower had turned 42 and Terry Sawchuk 37. Defencemen Tim Horton, Allan Stanley and Marcel Pronovost were 37, 41 and 36 respectively. Red Kelly had turned 39. George Armstrong was 36. The core of the team had remained intact for eight years. No one gave the Maple Leafs, who hobbled to a third place finish, much hope in winning the Stanley Cup. In fact, the Chicago Blackhawks had been the dominant team all season, collecting 94 points for a first place finish. But no one took into account the cunning of a veteran team with strong desire.
The results of the semi-final between Toronto and Chicago were a foregone conclusion to most hockey aficionados. Game 1, broadcast in five Toronto-area movie theatres, saw the Hawks blast Toronto 5-2. The Leafs rebounded with back-to-back 3-1 wins, but George Armstrong hurt his right knee in Game 2 after being hit by Bobby Hull. Chicago edged Toronto 4-3 in Game 4 but again, the Maple Leafs summoned a reserve to win 4-2 in Game 5. Armstrong returned for Game 6 and with the Leafs more determined than ever, eliminated Chicago by winning Game 6 3-1.
George Armstrong was platooned with young Brian Conacher on a line with Dave Keon and Frank Mahovlich. Montreal drew first blood, slicing the Leafs 6-2. Although Terry Sawchuk started the game in goal, he was replaced by Johnny Bower in the third after Montreal's fifth goal.
With Bower in goal, Toronto shut out Montreal 3-0 in Game 2, then edged the Canadiens 3-2 in the third contest. Montreal exacted revenge in Game 4, blitzing Terry Sawchuk and Toronto 6-2.
In Game 5, with Sawchuk back in the crease, the Maple Leafs won 4-1. Canadiens' netminder Rogie Vachon was replaced by veteran Gump Worsley in the third period.
Game 6 took place May 2 at Maple Leaf Gardens in Toronto. Hall of Fame netminders faced each other from opposite ends of the ice Worsley for Montreal and Sawchuk for Toronto. Ron Ellis and Jim Pappin tallied for the Leafs in the second period but Montreal wasn't going to go down without a scrap. Dickie Duff scored for the Habs early in the third to close the gap.
With less than a minute remaining and Montreal buzzing like a hive of angry bees, Canadiens' coach pulled the Gumper for an added attacker. Toronto bench boss Punch Imlach countered by sending defenseman Allan Stanley out to take the faceoff against Jean Beliveau. Stanley won the draw, pulling the puck to Red Kelly. Kelly got it to Bob Pulford who saw George Armstrong streaking up the right side. Receiving the pass just over the blueline, Armstrong cradled the puck, continued a few strides over the centre red line, then fired the puck into the gaping net. The insurance goal ensured that Toronto would be the recipient of the Stanley Cup for 1967!
George Armstrong skated to centre ice, his son and teammates beside him, and accepted hockey's highest prize from NHL president Clarence Campbell.
Fred Armstrong had secured video footage of his Dad's Stanley Cup wins. While screening the final contest of the 1967 Stanley Cup playoffs, George added commentary that alternated between hilarious and illuminating. "Did you know that Stemkowski takes credit for scoring the winning goal that year? He never even touched the puck! Pappin took the shot and it hit a skate (Terry Harper's) and went in. Pappin got the goal. No one else touched it."
George told other terrific stories, too, including a wonderful baseball story. "When I came up to the Leafs in 1951, I guess the word got around that I had been a pretty fair ball player back home," started George. "The Toronto Maple Leafs baseball club (a semi-pro club owned by Jack Kent Cooke, former owner of the Los Angeles Kings) asked if I wanted to join them for an exhibition game against the St. Louis Browns (of baseball's Major Leagues). I only got one at-bat, and it was against (Hall of Fame pitcher) Satchel Paige."
Other guests drifted into the party through the afternoon, including George's nephew, former NHL star Dale McCourt, and former Leaf teammate Bob Hassard.
The video of the 1967 Stanley Cup final continued, and George commented, "J.C. Tremblay wasn't the biggest guy, but he was a really good defenseman." Someone else commented on Red Kelly's surprising transition from being a defenseman in Detroit to playing forward in Toronto. George wasn't surprised.
Armstrong proceeded to explain about Stanley Cup celebrations during the 1960's. "When we won the Cup in '67, I got the Cup at centre ice and then we took it right off the ice. We put it on a table in the dressing room and the team looked at it. There was a party at the Westbury Hotel (a hotel less than a block behind Maple Leaf Gardens) and then there was a parade. That was it. We never saw the Cup again!"
George's jokes continued as sandwiches and salads were served. "Hey, you can't ride your bike today," George told a neighbourhood youngster. "Why not?" George glanced at the kid, then looked back at the party-goers. "Because your bike's two tired!" The boy stared blankly at the Leaf legend while the family and friends roared with laughter.
The Stanley Cup stayed all day long on the table in the Vaughan home of George's son, with George posing with the trophy amidst some of hockey memorabilia while laughing with the gathering. At midnight, Fred's hockey teammates arrived to get a photo with the Stanley Cup. One of the guys asked if he could get a picture of the Stanley Cup seated in his Corvette, so George carried Lord Stanley's mug out to the car for a photo. Just before 2 am, the happy group thanked George and Betty for the opportunity and the revelers made their way home. As the Cup was packed away, George and Betty Armstrong also pulled away after a memorable day.
Danny Lewicki grew up in a rough part of Fort William, Ontario (Fort William amalgamated with Port Arthur to form the City of Thunder Bay). Hockey likely saved him from being involved with the 'wrong crowd.' Even as a 15-year old, Lewicki was the leading scorer on the Fort William Knights of Columbus junior team. In 1947-48, he joined the Port Arthur West End Bruins, who faced the Barrie Flyers for the Memorial Cup. Danny scored the tournament-winning goal in overtime to give his team the junior championship of Canada. Danny collected 40 points in 17 playoff games to lead his Bruins to victory.
In 1949-50, Lewicki joined the Toronto Marlboros of the junior loop. That spring, he graduated to the senior Marlboros, who were competing for the Allan Cup as the senior champions of Canada. In 17 games, Danny led in every offensive category available, collecting 22 goals and 22 assists for 42 points to lead the Marlies to an Allan Cup victory in 1950.
With two hockey championships already under his teenaged belt, Danny Lewicki became a member of the Toronto Maple Leafs in 1950-51. As a 19-year old rookie leftwinger, Lewicki notched 16 goals and 18 assists and celebrated his twentieth birthday as the Leafs prepared to challenge for the Stanley Cup.
Game 1 of the semi-final between Toronto and Boston was a tough 2-0 win for the Bruins. But if Game 1 was a battle, then Game 2 was a war. Toronto's Fleming Mackell and Boston's Pete Horeck served fighting majors in the first period that spawned a brouhaha in the second. Milt Schmidt, captain of the Bruins, highsticked his Toronto counterpart, leaving Ted Kennedy with a 5-stitch cut. Bill Barilko came to the rescue of his captain and was given a ten-minute misconduct. Johnny Peirson slashed a Leaf and was rewarded with a broken cheekbone that eliminated him from the rest of the playoffs. Horeck and Jimmy Thomson of Toronto tussled later in the period. Ed Sandford challenged Thomson in the third, and both were penalized. Ted Kennedy went after Sandford later in the period and the two were given the gate. With the score tied 1-1, the contest went into overtime and the fighting didn't even stop then. Bill Barilko of the Leafs took Dunc Fisher into the boards so hard, he split his head for 12 stitches. Pete Horeck then went toe to toe with 'Bashin' Bill' and both were sent off, with Horeck sporting a 10-stitch gash over his left eye. Boston's Murray Henderson and Joe Klukay of Toronto each took 4 stitches after bumping heads.
And then the game ended. In Toronto at that time, there was a curfew that prohibited hockey from being played past 11:45 pm. For the final time in NHL history, a playoff contest went into the history books as a tie game. Although the final score was 1-1, there were clearly other scores that needed to be settled.
Game 3 continued in the same vein as its predecessor. Former Leaf Bill Ezinicki, along with Bruins teammate Steve Kraftcheck, wrestled with the Leafs' Jimmy Thomson and Ray Timgren. When Kraftcheck stepped out of the penalty box, Bill Juzda stepped up to bat and proceeded to land a haymaker that sent Kraftcheck reeling. When the dust (and few accounts) settled, the Maple Leafs had shut out the Bruins 3-0.
Lewicki didn't play in Game 4, a tamer game that finished with a 3-1 Leaf win, and only made one brief appearance in Game 5's 4-1 win for Toronto. The Maple Leafs finished off the Bruins decisively with a 6-0 spanking.
The Stanley Cup final pitted Toronto against the Montreal Canadiens. Danny didn't play in Game 1, a 3-2 overtime win for Toronto with Sid Smith scoring the deciding goal. The Canadiens reversed the fortunes in Game 2 winning 3-2 on an overtime tally from Maurice Richard.
Game 3 also went into overtime, as did Game 4. In the former, Toronto won 2-1 on a Ted Kennedy goal while the Leafs also won the latter on a Harry Watson marker.
The game went into overtime. Although fans paid for the whole seat, they were only using the edge when Bill Barilko galloped in from his post on the blueline to slap a backhand shot past Gerry McNeill, giving the Toronto Maple Leafs the win…and the Cup!
"It was such an unusual series in that all five games went into overtime," recalls Lewicki. "It was one of the highlights of my life."
The Stanley Cup was carried by Ted Kennedy into the Maple Leafs' dressing room. "They brought it in and then they whisked it out," Danny recalls. "We didn't even get the chance to touch it."
After the extraordinary rookie campaign, Danny Lewicki played portions of three more seasons with Toronto and then was sold to the New York Rangers during the summer of 1954. Although he was selected to the NHL's Second All-Star Team in 1955, Lewicki would never reach hockey nirvana after 1951. Four seasons on Broadway were followed by a season with Chicago.
Danny has enjoyed a 35-year friendship with a group of ten guys from the Skyline Health Club. For the past seven years, Danny has hosted an annual barbecue, so when he adjusted the date of the yearly get-together to coincide with his date with the Stanley Cup, the boys were only too happy to adjust their schedules.
The Stanley Cup arrived at 1:00 pm, and was carried into the backyard of Danny and his wife Shirley's lovely home. Most of the guests were already waiting and slowly, went over to examine the magnificent historical trophy. "Danny, where's your name," asked a close friend. Danny pointed to his spot on the 1951 Stanley Cup-winning Toronto Maple Leafs engraving, found on the uppermost band of the Cup.
Truth be told, Danny's name isn't truly on the Stanley Cup. On closer inspection, you'll note someone named 'Daniel Lewiski.' In fact, it was an engraving error. When the trophy was originally inscribed, it read 'Daniel Lewicki,' but in 1957, the bands were re-done and the silversmith made an error. And when working in silver, White-Out or backspacing just don't cut it.
One friend arrived wearing a Boston Bruins' sweater. "Hey, you can't wear that here," Danny laughed. "Someone get me my hockey stick!"
Lewicki regaled the group with stories. "Tell us about 'Rocket' Richard," demanded one guest, almost like calling out requests to a bar band. "Rocket Richard. Hell of a player. Intense," started Danny. "We faced each other in the final in 1951. He looked over at me and asked, 'You related to Sid Smith?' I said, 'No, why would you ask?' He said, 'Because you both got big noses!'" The barbecue erupted in guffaws.
"Who was the best ever," asked someone else. "Gordie Howe," replied Lewicki. "He could do it all."
"Best leader?" "Ted Kennedy," answered Danny. "He led by example. You wanted to play harder when you watched the way he worked."
Danny continued telling stories some funny and some sad. "I snapped at an NHL coach once and he benched me for 35 straight games," snarled the winger, remembering the incident. "Don Cherry called me one of the fastest skaters he ever saw but one year, I skated over a paperclip and tore my groin. I was never as fast after that."
Danny continued with the stories until someone suggested he write a book. "Beat you to it," Lewicki laughed. "Over the past couple of years, I worked away at it and it's all done. I hope to have it out in 2006."
Tuesday in the Stanley Cup Journal, you'll help Ted Lindsay blow out the candles at his 80th birthday party. Save room for a piece of cake and we'll see you then!

Christina Aguilera's Rude Diss To 'Voice' Contestant Melanie Martinez
Fans are outraged after Christina attacked Melanie during her critique. Do YOU think Christina was out of line?
Melanie Martinez was left shaken after the Dec. 3 episode of The Voice, as renowned diva Christina Aguilera told Melanie off for not paying attention during her critique. Not cool, Christina!
Adam Levine chose "The Show" by Lenka for Melanie to sing, and she gave a cute performance. Then the judges gave their feedback, which was relatively lukewarm. Blake Shelton noted that it was "definitely different," while Adam enjoyed the youthfulness of her performance. As for Christina…
While she was critiquing Melanie's performance, Melanie looked mildly distracted for a brief moment, which prompted Christina to say, "Well, she's not even looking at me… It's OK!" followed by a passive aggressive laugh.
That's not nice, Christina! You were once a fresh-faced newbie trying to make it too!
Fans have taken to Twitter to express their upset, as one Twitter user called @taymalay said "Why is Christina so mean toMelanie? Jealousy?" Another user said "Christina Aguilera was rude last night to Melanie…." We hope Christina learns from this, and is nicer next week!
What do YOU think HollywoodLifers? Was Christina out of line? Or should Melanie have been paying more attention?

What Type of Exercise During Cancer Therapy?
What kind of exercise is good to do while undergoing chemo and/or radiation?
Kathryn Schmitz, PhD, Penn Medicine researcher who specializes in the role of physical activity in lymphedema development and prevention , responds:
According to the American Cancer Society, the American College of Sports Medicine, and the National Comprehensive Cancer Network, aerobic activities like walking are safe to do even during active cancer treatment. Your response to exercise like walking might vary as you cycle through treatment, so you will likely need to take a day or 2 off when your treatment side effects are worst, but get right back to exercise as soon as you are able. If all you can do is laps around the dining room table or even stand for a few minutes a day, that's still worth doing!

There are some aspects of hockey that don't necessarily translate well into other languages.
For instance, how do you say "faceoff" in Japanese?
Or "switch sides" in Korean? How about, "fore check?"
And then there are the more nuanced aspects of the gentleman's game that crop up now and then, such as "face wash" and, "you wanna go?"
Despite spending the last year playing for the Nippon Paper Cranes in the Asia League Ice Hockey – that's how it's described on its web site – Oren Eizenman admits he hasn't picked up all the subtler hockey expressions in the Japanese language. He understood some of his coach's instructions, like when he was asked to switch sides when he played the point on a power play. But for the other stuff he had to rely on the team interpreter, who attended practices and even has a place behind the bench during games.
"It's a very interesting dynamic," Eizenman said.
Having an interpreter at the bench is one of the nice perks provided by the Paper Cranes, making his hockey experience in the Asia league that much more enjoyable.
Truth be told, games in Asia are less gritty and abrasive than the ones played in North America. The ice surfaces are larger, making for games that stress skating, passing and skill, not in-your-face intimidation. "It's a very fast game with less contact" than the North American variety, he said.
And that suits Eizenman just fine. A natural centre, he has staked out a career on style and finesse, though playing in the East Coast Hockey League (ECHL) and the American Hockey League (AHL), he wasn't afraid to dig for the puck in the corners.
In the season just concluded with the Nippon Paper Cranes – they take their name from their corporate sponsors – he scored 13 goals and added 25 assists for 38 points in an injury-hampered season.
The year before with High 1 in Seoul, South Korea, he scored 63 points in 36 games. The seven-city league has teams in Japan, South Korea and China.
Before his Asia adventure, Eizenman, 28, enjoyed a lengthy career in the ECHL and the AHL. Name a place and he's been there. He's played for Connecticut Whale, Syracuse Crunch, Milwaukee Admirals, San Antonio Rampage and the Manitoba Moose in the AHL. His longest stint was 33 games with the Whale in 2010-11. But, as he reminds, it was only one phone call away from a call-up to the Whale's NHL affiliate, the New York Rangers.
In the ECHL, he spent most of his time with the Fresno Falcons and the Stockton Thunder. Career wise, in 148 ECHL games, he scored 58 goals and added 104 assists for 162 points. In 82 AHL games, he scored six goals and added nine assists.
A dual Canadian and Israeli citizen, he's also represented Israel at IIHF tournaments, usually playing on the top line. For more about this year's event in Izmit, Turkey, see our sports page.
Playing in Seoul and Kushiro, Japan, has been a blast, he said. "It's been a great experience to go and live in those places for a couple of years."
There are only two North American skaters permitted on each team, so for Eizenman to make the cut is a testament to his ability. "It's a difficult league to get into. It's a really coveted job in the hockey world," he said.
The upside for those who make it is that the pay is even better than in European pro leagues. There, North Americans can earn high five figure or six figure salaries, tax free, along with free accommodation and use of a car, plus other benefits.
So how did he end up in the Far East?
"Originally, I did go because when I left North America, I was looking anywhere and the financial offer came from a team in Seoul. I thought it would be interesting to live in Asia.
"At first, I went in blind, but I had heard good things."
Eizenman was pleased with the hockey experience. Everything there is top quality, he said.
A drawback in both countries, he continued, is that "not everybody speaks English. I tried to learn the language but it is very different."
Making the situation even more intriguing is that the Cranes' head coach named him assistant captain, even though he could barely speak Japanese.
"They saw that I'm a lead-by-example kind of player," he said. And he served as an antidote to a malaise that sometime plagued the team. "The team had a tendency to get down if things were not going so well and get into a downward spiral… If the team saw that Oren was not worried, so they didn't worry either."
At the cultural level, Eizenman admits the adjustment was at times difficult, but "I learned a lot about their cultures. I learned a lot about myself and grew from the experience."
One of the big differences in Japan was a pervasive deference to authority. The coach's word was law and even young players had to do what the older ones demanded. That's a far cry from the Canadian attitude, let alone the Israeli one, which is, ahem, not that impressed with authority.
Eizenman's teammates on the Cranes came to know him as both an Israeli and a Canadian, but few had a clue about Jewish people. "People couldn't even comprehend what Judaism is," he said.
His teammates were curious and he did his best to explain it to them. "I became really close to almost all my teammates. People ask, how did you communicate? There's a way to use the basic words in their language and they use the basic words in your language."
Eizenman has also come to believe the truism that 90 per cent of communications is non-verbal.
And that just proved another truism, that sport transcends different cultures, so that you don't have to know how to say "face wash" in Japanese to get along.

CAMBRIDGE, Mass. – The Harvard women's tennis team upset No. 56 Brown, 4-3, Sunday afternoon at the Murr Center. The team hosted its USTA Kids Day after the match, as a number of children joined Harvard players on the court for games, drills, fun, food and prizes. The Crimson also celebrated senior Samantha Gridley's last home match of her career.
To open the match, Harvard completed a come-from-behind win in doubles to gain a 1-0 lead. After falling at No. 3 doubles, the Crimson rebounded to take the next two tandem matches.
Hideko Tachibana and Kristin Norton, who are currently ranked No. 78 among duos, easily beat Ariel Caldwell and Misia Krasowski, 8-2, in the top position and Samantha Gridley and Kelly Whelan knocked of Jessica Harrow and Laura Wiley, 9-7, at No. 2. Gridley and Whelan were trailing, 6-7, when the first two matches ended, before coming back to take the next three points.
Norton kicked off singles play with a sweeping win over Harrow in the No. 2 position. The junior co-captain won, 6-1, 6-4, in straight sets.
After Brown had its first victory, Kelly Whelan put Harvard within a point of victory with a win at No. 5, but Brown answered with two more wins to tie the score at three.
Tachibana was left on the court for Harvard, facing off against Brown's best player, Misia Krasowski. The Crimson's other co-captain finished the Harvard victory with a 6-7 (5), 6-0, 6-2 win at No. 1 singles.
Harvard wraps up its schedule April 28 at Dartmouth.

Brooklynites love their artisanal products, and that passion extends to perfume. Handmade in small batches in King's County, Nomaterra's fragrances are inspired by the travels of the brand's founder and come in both traditional bottles and these convenient wipes. We're fans of these on-the-go versions, which come in two equally lovely scents: East Hampton and Miami.
I like the packet style but really prefer roller balls or sprays. That said the East Hampton fragrance was way too strong. I coughed and my eyes watered for the whole 8 hours it lasted (which is really good staying power). I'm giving that set away. I bought the Miami wipes too and I really liked the smell. I likely will never buy again but I really enjoy trying different perfumes and have quite a collection. Thanks Birchbox for the opportunities to try different makeups and perfumes.4
I was a little hesitant about a perfume in wipe format at first; I thought it might be something kind of like the little perfume samples you somtimes get in magazine inserts where its a tiny square in a little piece of foil that you pull apart. This is not like that at all. The wipe is a nice size and it gives you more than enough perfume for a full application.
I've tried both scents, and they are really different and unique scents. Miami scent is my favorite, I would wear it all year round, although its very spring-summer appropriate.
these do stay on for many hours. Not the strongest or longest lasting perfume, but I didn't have to reapply. If you do want to reapply, the wipes are easy to toss in your bag or clutch
Nomaterra eau de parfum wipes were one of my holy grail products this summer. I prefer East Hampton, and my close friend really loves Miami. Both scents are gorgeous; so nicely blended, very sophisticated yet fun. These scents are nothing like anything else in my fragrance collection, and this format is perfect for me. I love bringing these to the gym or to refresh my perfume on day trips or at the beach. These wipes are so convenient.
The fragrance does last all day and it is definitely one that I can smell all throughout the day. Its fade is minimal and I can easily wear it for 8-10 hours and still have people tell me that I smell nice!
I just love these Nomaterra Eau de Parum fragrance wipes. I'm obsessed with both the Miami and East Hampton scents, and these wipes are absolutely perfect for summer.
Whats better than being able to wipe a great summer scent on your skin on the go without the worry of leaky rollerball bottles or broken spray bottles? This gives you a great 1-2 punch of fragrance without the mess. The wipes are compact so you can toss a few in your bag.
The throw of these is great. Comparable or stronger than most spray perfumes. They have great silage and I get so many compliments on these two fragrances whenever i wear them.
These wipes literally saved me from an embarrassing first date situation. I was sitting down and some moron spilt his beer all over me before my date showed up. I freaked out until I remembered I keep a few of these tucked away in my wallet. Used this on all my pressure points and instantly covered any residual post-clean-up beer smell. Plus points for the creators, my date loved how light and feminine it is!5

MOSCOW (Reuters) - The head of Russia's renowned Hermitage Museum accused Russian authorities on Monday of fostering "mob rule" in taking up complaints by Russian Orthodox Christians over a British exhibit they said injured religious feelings.
The row coincides with a surge in religious, nationalist sentiment in Russia, with President Vladimir Putin moving closer to the Orthodox Church to consolidate his support after facing the biggest protests since he rose to power nearly 13 years ago.
The display, entitled "The End of Fun" and launched in the St Petersburg museum in October, includes figurines draped with Nazi insignia and a crucified Ronald McDonald, the mascot of the McDonald's fast-food restaurant chain.
It has drawn over 100 complaints and state prosecutors are checking whether it violates a law against incitement to hatred, under which two members of the Pussy Riot punk protest band opposed to President Vladimir Putin were jailed.
"This (investigation) is an attempt to dictate conditions to us by mob rule and we should not allow this," said Mikhail Piotrovsky, the director of Hermitage, one of the world's oldest and biggest museums.
Prosecutors acted after receiving complaints from visitors who said the exhibition by British artists Jake and Dinos Chapman offended the feelings of Russian Orthodox Christians.
"You can't force a celebrated actor to cancel his show just because someone would come and make a noise ... about someone's feelings," Piotrovsky told Reuters on the sidelines of a conference in Moscow. "Art has its own language, one needs to understand it. If you don't get it, just step aside."
The Hermitage Museum is housed in buildings including the Winter Palace, a former residence of the Russian emperors, and is now owned by the state.
The Hermitage website describes the centerpiece of the Chapman brothers' display as a "three-dimensional collage consisting of miniature plastic figures ... arranged in such a way that it resembles a (Nazi) swastika from above".
"In the display cases, a single landscape of hell unfolds in which the figures ceaselessly kill one another with diabolical cruelty ... By placing cruelty in seal museum display cases or dioramas, the artists strive to cure society of that cruelty."
The museum's website said the exhibit belonged to a "Disasters of War" genre and that it was not suitable for viewing by anyone younger than 18.
Traditional religious conservatism has revived markedly in public since Pussy Riot members burst into a Russian Orthodox cathedral in Moscow in February and, dressed in short dresses and colorful ski masks, performed a protest song against Putin's close ties with the church.
The two-year prison sentences handed down to two members of the all-women collective were criticized in the West, but the protest outraged many Russian Orthodox Christians and stirred a debate over the state of society in Russia.
Since the Pussy Riot trial this summer, Russian lawmakers allied to Putin have called for the introduction of jail sentences for people found guilty of offending religious feelings.
Critics say the law would blur the line between the state and the church. They regard the move as part of what they see as a clampdown on dissent and civil liberties since Putin began a new six-year term in May. He denies launching a crackdown.
Among other prominent instances of conservative Russians trying to protect their beliefs in court, American pop singer Madonna was sued by a group of Russians for spreading gay "propaganda" when she gave a concert in St Petersburg in August. The case was eventually thrown out.
The launch of patrols in Moscow by cossacks has also been widely interpreted as a result of Putin's calls for patriotism and his promotion of Russian traditions.

Honk-gate, the Phantom Honk, the Honk Heard 'Cross the Bay -- whatever you want to call it, San Francisco 49ers coach Jim Harbaugh says it never happened.
Following the Seattle Seahawks' 42-13 beatdown of the 49ers on Sunday night, two Seahawk defensive backs, Earl Thomas and Richard Sherman, told Mike Silver of Yahoo! Sports that Harbaugh honked his car horn and waved at their bus following the 49ers' victory over the Seahawks in October.
Harbaugh denied the accusation Monday:
"No. No, that did not occur. That's a fabrication," he said, via the San Francisco Chronicle.
Harbaugh said the incident couldn't have happened because he didn't leave Candlestick Park that day until after the Seahawks had already left.
"I can't think of a time when I've left the game and the other team's still been there this entire season," he said.
While this particular controversy might be contrived, what is not is the bitterness being built between these division rivals. The Seahawks -- feeling like they've had to live in the shadow of the 49ers hype -- have played with a chip on their shoulder all season, and gained a pyschological edge after Sunday's blowout.
Whether they meet again in the playoffs or we have to wait for next season's games, the acrimony between the Seahawks and 49ers will linger for a long time.

Factors affecting the photodegradation rates of polymers that contain (cyclopentadienyl-(carbon monoxide)-molybdenum) in the backbone
Daglen, Bevin Colleen, 1977-
MetadataShow full item record
Daglen, Bevin Colleen, 1977-
There are compelling economic and environmental reasons for using degradable plastics in selected applications and considerable research is now devoted to devising new photodegradable polymers with improved performance. Controlling the degradation of these materials in a prescribed fashion is still a difficult problem because the parameters that influence degradation rates are not completely understood. In order to predict polymer lifetimes, to manipulate when a polymer starts to degrade, and to control the rate of degradation, it is necessary to identify the experimental parameters that affect polymer degradation rates and to understand how these parameters affect degradation. This dissertation describes the results of experiments designed to gain fundamental insight into the factors that affect the rate of polymer photodegradation. The key experimental strategy employed was the incorporation of organometallic dimers into the backbone of the polymer chains, specifically, [CpRMo(CO) 3 ] 2 (CpR = a substituted cyclopentadienyl (· 5 -C 5 H 4 R)). Incorporating these organometallic units into a polymer chain make the polymer photodegradable because the metal-metal bond can be cleaved with visible light. The photogenerated metal radicals can then be trapped by O 2 or chlorine, resulting in degradation of the polymer. Another benefit from incorporating this chromophore into the polymer backbone is that it provides the experimentalist with a convenient spectroscopic handle to monitor degradation rates. Using these model polymers, several experimental factors that can affect polymer photodegradation rates have been explored. For example, experiments showed that radical trap concentration affects degradation rates below, but not above, the polymer glass transition temperature. In addition, degradation rates as a function of irradiation temperature, tensile stress, and time-dependent morphology changes were explored for various polymers. The results of these studies suggest that the ability of the photogenerated radicals to escape the radical cage is the dominant factor in determining photodegradation efficiencies. This dissertation includes previously published and unpublished co-authored material.

The Jews are known for their intuitive genius in getting out of a pickle. With their long history of persecution, they've developed a knack for escaping seemingly hopeless predicaments: when your back is against the wall, you learn to think fast. Centuries of reasoning and interpreting the Holy Scriptures have also contributed to the Jews' skill in solving the most puzzling problems. This astute way of thinking is known in Yiddish as yiddishe kop, literally "Jewish head."
Through Jewish humor, folklore, and tales of the great rabbis, Rabbi Nilton Bonder presents the basic principles of this creative approach to thinking, which sees beyond appearances to the hidden truth of any problem. Once these are mastered, they may in turn be applied to many "impossible" situations that arise in business and in life.
The book focuses on four levels of solving a problem:
News & Reviews
- On the level of Information, we approach problems literally, in response to the obvious and the concrete.
- On the level of Understanding, we obtain concealed information through techniques such as questioning, reframing, and emptying the mind.
- On the level of Wisdom, we access the world of intuition, where a "fool" can achieve the impossible by relying on feelings, premonitions, dreams, and coincidences.
- On the level of Reverence, we discover the hidden Reality behind appearances. This is the realm of those who dare to take risks, make commitments, and learn from mistakes, who act out of their living experience without relying solely on reason and conceptual thinking.
"Rabbi Bonder's Hasidic stories enable us to experience the joy of seeing beyond appearances to the hidden reality of the Universe. Yiddishe Kop is a wonderful primer on fostering the art of intuition and creative problem solving." —Spirituality & Health
"Bonder offers an intriguing glimpse into what he views as the Jewish tradition of life: negotiating information, understanding, wisdom, and reverence in order to use both faith in God and daily experience to live life with insight and closeness to God." —Library JournalReader Reviews

We're used to seeing incredibly gorgeous photos of David Beckham. His body is a work of art complete with tattoos, chiseled cheekbones, hair you want to run your hands through, and strong thighs many fantasize about straddling. But his latest photographic offering comes in the form of an ad for H&M and it's here where he delivers us the ultimate package -- his own.
Hello, David! And hello, (not so) little David! Nice to see it seems like you're in on the Movember act, and showing off the contours of your royal jewels at the same time.
Seriously, muscles, moustache, manliness on full display -- thank goodness his nipples aren't exposed or this may have been deemed X-rated. Sure we've seen David nearly naked before, but for this undie ad, he seems to show more ... ahem ... goods than that other one we all drooled over back in the spring.
Thank you, H&M, for making the campaign hotter every season. Nothing like the looks of a man like that to warm us up. Has anyone purchased those underwear by the way?
What's that you say? You didn't notice his moustache or that come hither look on his face or even that perfect line of hair on his stomach because all you could see is that bulge in his underwear? Yes, yes, I know. He's all man. What a man. The perfect specimen. It's a wonder he and Victoria don't have 387 kids by now.
Oh we should thank Victoria for sharing him. He sure is so much more than just a doting dad. (Sarcasm there in case your brain is a lovesick mush from the photo.)
Don't you just love these ads? Or do you think this one goes too far?

The Peralta Community College District has struggled under the weight of reduced funding, financial mismanagement, wasteful spending, lavish perks for trustees and an inept and ethically challenged chancellor who was finally replaced.
While we're hopeful his permanent replacement can finally right the ship, there unfortunately has been little turnover on the seven-member governing board. District elections have slipped under the radar.
This year, the three incumbents seeking re-election drew no challengers. That's a shame. But in Area 2, where Trustee Marcie Hodge is stepping down after two terms, four candidates seek the seat.
The district and students face huge challenges. State-set student fees have more than doubled in recent years; student enrollment has declined 20 percent; and teaching positions have been cut 23 percent. Meanwhile, the district faces $236 million of unfunded liabilities for its retiree health plan, a debt equal to about four years of full-time employees' salaries.
The district needs a trustee with critical-thinking skills who believes in transparency and understands the inner workings of school districts.
One candidate stands out: attorney Meredith Brown, whose two decades of law practice have focused on representing public agencies. She understands the intricacies of contracts, bonds and local government law. She has an attention to detail currently lacking on the Peralta board.
We're hopeful she will raise the bar for the entire board.

The CCRI Knights men's basketball team hosted the Rams of the Naval Academy Preparatory School (NAPS) last night at the Cullen Fieldhouse. The Knights came up one point short of a victory against the hot shooting Rams, losing 64-63.
CCRI and Navy Prep battled back and forth as the game began, with NAPS getting most of their first half points in the paint including 11 points from Enuoma Edinum. However the Knights got 12 from their All-American Desmond Williams (Torrington, Conn.) to take a five-point lead into halftime 28-23.
The second half was much different for Navy Prep, as they sank seven three-pointers, four of them by guard Kyle Quintana, to give it a five-point lead 62-57 lead late in the game. Once again, the Knights' Williams took over making a three and getting fouled for a four-point play with 22.6 seconds left, narrowing the NAPS lead to 62-61. NAPS made two foul shots to increase the lead to 64-61, and Jerome Harris (Hartford, Conn.) rushed down the court and made a floater with 13.6 left, once again cutting the lead to one point at 64-63. With under ten seconds on the clock, NAPS was able to inbound the ball to Quintana who was fouled with just 2.6 remaining. He missed the front end of the one-and-one which was rebounded by Williams, but his last second desperation attempt missed the mark and the game ended in a one-point CCRI loss.
The Knights were led Williams, who scored a game-high 28 points while captain Isaac Medeiros (Johnston) had eight points and nine rebounds. Also helping the Knights was Pat Marchand (Cranston) with 10 points, Jerome Harris with six points and Chris Light (Derry, N.H.) added five points.
"I told the young men following our tough loss tonight that we have hit a wall," CCRI head coach Rick Harris said. "Our goal is to get a little bit better each day and for the last couple of days and games that has not been the case. This is typical in a thirty-game regular season. We will find a way as a team to make that happen and look to finish strong as we get into important region games over the last five games of the regular season."
All 12 Knights score while defeating STCC
The CCRI Knights men's basketball team traveled to Springfield, Mass. to play the Rams of Springfield Technical Community College for a Region XXI non-league game. CCRI defeated the Rams 95-54. With the victory, the Knights improved top 16-10 overall and 9-2 in Region XXI play.
The Knights jumped out to a 19-4 lead within the first five minutes of the game, which they extended to 42-25 by halftime. The Knights exploded with a 13-0 run to start the second half and never looked back, outscoring the Rams 53-29 in the second stanza to cruise to the win.
Williams scored 25 points with eight rebounds and Harris added 18 points. The Knights had a strong inside power play from Medeiros, who finished with 16 points and nine rebounds two steals and Bryan Yarce (Cranston) had seven points while dishing out a game-high eight assists. Rob Hazard (North Providence) got the start and added nine points, including two three-pointers. As a team, the Knights shot 42-percent from long range.
"Nice team effort tonight," Rick Harris said. "We played with urgency and passion, and got a little bit better tonight as a team. The young men understand the importance of each practice and game at this point in the season. We want to make sure we do all we can to become the best team that we are capable of being."
Barboza sets new CCRI 60m hurdles record at URI
The CCRI Knights indoor track team traveled to the University of Rhode Island to compete in the URI Coaches Tribute Invitational on Saturday. The CCRI men's team placed 9th out of 11 teams, scoring teams with 15 points and the University of Rhode Island men's team won the meet with 193 total team points.
Bobby Allen (Cranston) won the 3,000 in a season-best time of 8:33.4 seconds. His time puts him at No. 2 on the NJCAA indoor track performance list behind Tahir Chakisso from Iowa Central CC at 8:32.37. Jumper Steven Vazquez (Central Falls) placed fourth in the high jump with a 1.89m effort. Jordan Barboza (Warwick) had a fine meet, placing 19th in the high jump with a season-best leap of 1.84m. Barboza came back to place 20th in the 60 meter hurdles with a CCRI record time of 9.12 seconds. He followed that by running with his teammates Vazquez, Daniel Duquette (North Attleboro, Mass.) and Carlos Diaz (Smithfield) in the 4x400 relay, placing 11th in a time of 3:34.14.
Duquette returned to place 15th in the 800, with his second-best time of the season of 2:00.36. Sprinter Ryan Rotondo (Cranston) placed 17th in the 60 dash with a time of 7.45 seconds. For the Lady Knights, Olivia Emerick (Cranston) ran the 400, placing 27th in a time of 1:06.27.
The next meet for the Knights will be this Friday and Saturday when they travel to Boston University to compete in the BU Valentine's Day Invitational. The meet begins 2 p.m. Friday and 10 a.m. Saturday.
Lady Knights muzzled by Mustangs
The No. 8 CCRI Lady Knights basketball team traveled to New Rochelle, N.Y. to play defending the national champion Mustangs of Monroe College. The Lady Knights lost to the Mustangs 94-75. With the loss, the Lady Knights fell to 19-3 on the season.
Saturday was just not the Lady Knights' day, as Monroe started hot and the Lady Knights came out a bit flat. That was all the high-powered Mustangs needed, as they took a 19-point lead into halftime, with the score 52-33. The Lady Knights played the Mustangs even in the second half, but could not cut into the Monroe lead. The loss snapped a five-game winning streak for CCRI.
Leading the way for the Lady Knights was captain Jahira Smith (Brooklyn, N.Y.) with a game-high 25 points, with seven steals and six rebounds. Smith's 25 points gives her 897 for her career and moves her to No. 4 on the CCRI all-time scoring list. With five regular season games remaining and the postseason as well, she has a very good chance to be the first Lady Knight to eclipse the 1,000 point mark.
Also playing well for then Lady Knights was Moe Plummer (Fairfield, Conn.) with 19 points on an impressive 8-of-11 from the floor and Ahnyyah Jackson (Hackensack, N.J.), who added 11 points. Rounding out the Lady Knights' top performers was Lexi Barros (New Bedford, Mass.) with nine points, five assists and five rebounds and Nyjah Porcher (New Britain, Conn.) with eight points and 10 rebounds.
"We did a lot of uncharacteristic things today, including missing 17 free throws," CCRI head coach Kate Lynch said. "We missed crucial box outs, we made mental errors on the defensive end, our execution was poor. When you play a team like Monroe, you can't do those things and expect to win. Hopefully we bounce back and learn from this. It is better to learn now than in a month."

The Gaucho Record
UCSB completed regular season play on Sunday evening with a decisive 4-0 win over visiting UC Irvine. The Gauchos will enter the Big West Tournament with an overall record of 12-6-1. They finished conference competition with a 5-2-1 record, good for second-place.
UCSB-Cal Poly
UCSB and Cal Poly will be playing for the second time this season. On Oct. 19, the Gauchos defeated the Mustangs in San Luis Obispo, 4-2. In the regular season win, forwards Kailyn Kugler and Genelle Ives each scored a pair of goals. Historically, the teams have played 17 times dating back to 1993. Santa Barbara has a lifetime record of 6-9-2 against Cal Poly. The last times the teams played at Harder Stadium was on Oct. 20, 2007 and the Mustangs won that one, 1-0.
Combination Of Veterans, Youth Lead Resurgence
A balance of veteran and young players helped UCSB's resurgence in 2008. The 2007 Gauchos finished with an overall record of 6-10-4 and struggled to score. This year, a roster that includes three seniors, two juniors, 12 sophomores, and 11 freshmen led UCSB to its most wins since 2004, and the second most ever under head coach Paul Stumpf.
Stumpf Needs One For 100
Paul Stumpf, completing his 10th season as UCSB's head coach, will enter the Big West Tournament needing one victory to reach two significant marks. With Sunday's 4-0 win over UC Irvine, Stumpf now has 99 career coaching wins since taking over the Gaucho program in 1999. One more win would give him 100 in his career. Additionally, one more victory would pull the Sonoma, Calif., native into a tie for UCSB's all-time lead. Tad Bobak, completed his Gaucho coaching career in 1994, also had 100 wins.
Ives Leads Balanced Attack
Junior forward Genelle Ives's return after a redshirt season was a successful one. Ives sat out the 2007 season after having knee surgery, depriving UCSB of its top goal-scorer from the previous two seasons. In 2008, the Dana Point, Calif., native showed little residual problems. She completed the regular season as the Gauchos' leading scorer with eight goals and seven assists for 23 points. All three of the the totals were career-highs for Ives, who played in all 19 matches this season, starting 17. In her career, she has now scored 21 goals and 17 assists for 59 points. Her 21 goals rank ninth on the school's career list, while her 59 points rank 11th.
Lending A Hand
The return of Genelle Ives was obviously a major boost to Gaucho fortunes in 2008, but the arrival of sophomore forward Kylie McDonald was a huge positive as well. McDonald transferred to UCSB from Pepperdine, where she was an Honorable Mention All-West Coast Conference player in 2007. After a somewhat slow start - she didn't score in the team's first two games - McDonald finished the year with five goals and a team-leading eight assists for 18 points, tied for third on the team. She was particularly good late in the season, scoring two of her goals and six of her assists in the final nine games, all in league play.
Kugler Proves It Was No Fluke
As a freshman in 2007, forward Kailyn Kugler was forced to play a major role in UCSB's offense. Injuries to several key players turned her into a starter and she responded by leading the team with six goals. In 2008, Kugler proved that her 2007 performance was no accident. She enters postseason play with seven goals, second on the team, and four assists. Her 18 points ties her with Kylie McDonald for second.
Simon Says She's A Midfielder
Sophomore Jacqui Simon played mostly forward in 2007 and she had two goals and one assist. Moved back to her more familiar midfield position in 2008, she responded by scoring six goals and seven assists for 19 points, second on the team. Simon was also the only UCSB player to have two multiple-goal games, scoring two each against in wins at Pepperdine and UC Riverside.
Scoring Frenzy
The Gauchos have scored 38 goals in their 19 games this season, exactly double what they scored in the same number of games last season. Four players have scored five or more goals, eight have two or more, and 12 have scored at least once. In addition, after being shutout nine times in 2007, UCSB was blanked just once in 19 games during the regular season.
On The Stumpf
Paul Stumpf is in his 10th season as the head coach at UC Santa Barbara. He enters this week's action with a record of 99-75-22. His total of 99 wins ranks second on UCSB's all-time list, one behind Tad Bobak who finished his coaching career with exactly 100. This season marks the fifth time that Stumpf has guided the Gauchos to at least 10 wins. Stumpf has led the program to records of .500 or better in seven of the last nine seasons, including, at one point, four straight seasons of 10 or more victories, the first time the program accomplished that feat since 1988-91. In 1999, Stumpf's first season as the head coach at UCSB, he took a team that was selected to finish last in the conference, but instead posted an 8-9-1 overall record and a 5-4 mark in the Big West. Following the season, he was chosen as the Big West's Coach of the Year.

Twins Struggle To Drive In Runs In Loss To Royals
The Twins lost to the Royals 4-3 Wednesday night at Target Field. The Royals have now won eight straight games and remain eight games out of first place. First place Detroit has won five straight, and second place Cleveland has won seven in a row.
Minnesota trailed 2-0 heading into the fifth inning when a Pedro Florimon home run cut the deficit to 2-1. Chris Hermann drew a bases loaded walk to tie the game at two in the bottom of the sixth inning.
The Royals scored the deciding runs in the top of the seventh inning off of Caleb Thielbar, although both were unearned due to an error by Florimon.
Minnesota finished the game just 3-17 with runners in scoring position and left 11 runners on base. The Twins and Royals will finish their three game series Thursday at Target Field.

Wear U Clothing, Inc.
Please read the Wear U Clothing Inc history that I attached in PDF - it is written in the future tense so we could have a vision of what we would look like at the end of 2012
Our target audience is the young fashionable college student who would wear cloth designers such as Ralph Lauren, banana republic or J Crew.
One of the key expressions that fraternity brothers say to one another is "lean on the shield" - this means to provide a service to a fraternity brother solely based on the fraternal commitment to each other. The requirement of this project is to illustrate "leaning on the shield" by literally using the shield attached and creating a character leaning on it. I also attached a sample of the type of character I would like to see leaning on the shield. I would like to see the character's profile only - wearing a red hooded shirt, light brown pants and black boots - also I would like to see a red and white walking cane in his hand. The outfit mentioned is signature to the fraternity. I also attached some pictures of fraternity men in the style mentioned above for reference. This graphic will be used on the pocket on shirts, graphic on t-shirts, stickers etc for over 30,000 members of the organization... Good luck

North American women, primarily aged 40 - 55 with some extension on either side.
They LOVE to get outside, get together with other women and create a sense of FUN and COMMUNITY while getting fit.
