March 7 (Bloomberg) -- Canadian canola farmers, the world's biggest growers, are poised to increase output to a record, adding to reserves of the oil used by McDonald's Corp. to cook 4,000 metric tons of fries globally every day.
Production in the year starting Aug. 1 will surge 16 percent, the most since 2008, to an all-time high of 15.5 million tons as fields recover from drought and infestations of bugs, the government estimates. Futures will tumble 24 percent to C$480 ($466) a ton in Winnipeg by the end of the harvest in November, commodity broker Futures International LLC forecasts.
From Malaysian palm plantations to Brazilian soybean fields, farmers are reaping record oilseed harvests this year, industry researcher Oil World said in a report Feb. 15. U.S. growers probably will produce the biggest soy crop ever as output rebounds after the worst drought since the 1930s, the government said a week later. Expanding stockpiles of cooking oils helped drive global food costs down 12 percent from a record in 2011, United Nations data show.
"We'll see a glut of canola this year," said Santo Fata, who manages operations and purchasing at Sager Food Products Inc., a Montreal-based vegetable-oil packager founded in 1983. Prices that jumped to a four-year high in September mean "Canadian farmers are going to look at the price of canola. They're going to want that money."
Canola gained 7.3 percent to C$632.70 this year on ICE Futures Canada, compared with a 0.2 percent decline in Malaysian palm oil and a 1.1 percent advance in U.S. soybean oil. Fata said canola will trade below C$500 in six months. The MSCI All- Country World Index of equities jumped 5.6 percent since the end of December, as the dollar strengthened 3 percent against a basket of six trading partners. Treasuries lost 0.6 percent, a Bank of America Corp. index shows.
Canadian farmers start planting in May and probably will harvest 1.83 tons per hectare (2.47 acres), 18 percent more than in 2012, Agriculture & Agri-Food Canada said in a Feb. 21 report. That will swell inventories before the harvest in 2014 by 71 percent, the biggest gain in eight years, to 600,000 tons, the government agency forecast.
Traders are anticipating lower prices by September, when harvests begin in provinces including Alberta, Manitoba and top- grower Saskatchewan, which supplied 46 percent of last year's crop. Futures for November delivery closed yesterday at a C$64.60 discount to the May contract, up from C$43 on Dec. 31.
Lower prices would benefit oilseed processors in Europe, Japan and China. The 27-nation European Union, the largest importer of rapeseed and canola, will buy 3 million tons in the year through June, Hamburg-based Oil World estimates. Japan will take 2.4 million tons and China 2.3 million, the data show.
With canola still six months away from harvest, bad weather could disrupt supply. Output fell 8.9 percent to 13.3 million tons in 2012 as yields slumped 19 percent, the biggest drop in a quarter century. Fields across the Canadian Prairies were hurt by rain, drought, bug infestations and high winds. Prices rose as much as 25 percent last year to C$654.60 on Sept. 14, the highest since 2008.
Rain in May delayed planting and forced growers to abandon some areas, while frost hit southern farms. That was followed by a heat wave and then strong winds in September that scattered ripe seeds. Infestations of flea beetles chewed holes in leaves in Alberta and Saskatchewan and cutworms and weevils attacked plants in June and July. Blackleg, a fungal disease, spread in central Alberta, and hailstorms destroyed some fields.

So, this week's Q&A is with… me. I am Becky, the Social Media Officer, which means that I do a lot of online based stuff — whatever I'm asked to do, really! Writing blog posts, making graphics, seeing that the layouts of our Social Media websites are shiny and pleasing to the eye. I've also been asked to do more writing recently, which why I maintain this Tumblr, and I've been lending a hand with the AWBG catalogue and website, which will be coming your way soon. I will continue to ramble on below.
How did you first hear about Caleb's Hope, and how did you get involved?
I first heard about Caleb's Hope from a convention report on a website, where Tahmoh Penikett had spoken about the charity in one of the guest talks. After checking out the website a couple of times, I saw that they were looking for volunteers and decided to join. We did a bit of shuffling about, but eventually I joined the e-Team, which I've been a part of ever since.
What is it about CH that drew you to the organisation?
The women and the children. Their stories were what drew me in; I wanted to be able to do something for them, to help them create their own sustainable businesses so that they could support their families.
Is there a particular project which has captured your interest over your time with Caleb's Hope? Why?
There are two projects which I'm particularly interested in; Project Build, because everyone deserves to have the security of having a roof over their heads and a safe place to live and sleep; and Real Men Don't Rape. All women have the right to be respected, no matter what culture or community they're from.
What has been the most enjoyable aspect about your work so far?
I really love working with the other members of the team. The members have changed a lot since we began, some have left, some have only come on recently, but they've all contributed to some good times and we've bonded. I've made good friends through Caleb's Hope, and I'm thankful for that.
Do you own any NYARA jewelry? What does it mean to you?
I do indeed; a choker (which I use as a bracelet) and a long necklace. They're a way of feeling connected to the women, knowing that they put their hard work into making a unique piece of jewellery for you to wear.
(For those who have been with Caleb's Hope for an extended period of time) What is it that has encouraged your continued support?
The last three and a half years that I've put into Caleb's Hope have been such a rewarding experience from getting to know the people, to picking up new skills, to seeing how our work has gone into helping the community. I've grown with the charity, and I can't imagine ever leaving.
What are your top ten favourite films.
Oh man, I cringed when we came up with this question, it's so hard!
The Avengers, The Dark Knight, Serenity, The Social Network, Tangled, Inception, Never Let Me Go, Midnight in Paris, Easy A, annnnnd Kiss Kiss Bang Bang.
Where is your favourite holiday destination, and what special memories do you have from there?
I have two; first of all, the trip to Paris that my sister and I made as a celebration of my 21st Birthday. I tired her out walking all around the streets of the city, admiring the architecture, and the general beauty of the city. The Jardin des Tuileries and the Louvre (the actual building, not the glass pyramid thing) were two of the most gorgeous things that we saw there. And the other, although this might sound strange to some, was my trip to Los Angeles. It was my first time travelling abroad alone, staying with a friend of mine while I was there. She showed me as many of the sights as she could possibly fit into ten days without completely exhausting us both, and provided me with the best company. I totally fell in love with the beaches there. If I could live there and take pictures of the sunset every day, I'd be very happy.
What would you do in a zombie apocalypse?
I react strangely to stressful situations, so I would probably be freaking out big time, but would still be double tapping them left and right.
Have you supported any other charities over the years?
Every year I donate to Children in Need, which is a televised event that helps to fund organisations up and down the UK. I've also done fundraising for the NSPCC, another charity that supports children who have been abused or are in need of help and attention. I also have a Stand Up to Cancer t-shirt, which I wear a lot, and I also participate in clicktivism, when the cause clicks with me.
If you have to eat one thing for the rest of your life, what would it be and why?
Garlic bread. Because it would make me an excellent Vampire hunter.
Think about it.
When you have time to yourself, what things do you like to do to relax/unwind?
My three staples in life: reading books, writing, and listening to music.
Claim to fame?
The winner of Britain's Got Talent a few years ago was a boy from my High School. We both went to the same Saturday morning performing arts group and were part of a spoof James Bond sketch; he was a henchman, I was Mrs. Bond.
Therefore, my claim to fame is that I (fake) kicked George Sampson's ass with a rubber duck.

Fire School is in session! Aventurine has released a new video that shows off the skills of one aspect of Darkfall Unholy Wars' Elementalist role, and casters and and pyros-at-heart will enjoy a look into the Fire Mage. Feel like swimming through a bubbling lake of lava? Cast a self-buff and dive right in! Like to lob flaming balls at others and watch them catch fire? Then Fire Mage is the class for you!
Like its name implies, this particular mage uses an arsenal of fiery tricks to best opponents. The class focuses on medium- to long-range combat and incorporates knockbacks and area effects into many of the spells. For a demonstration of Dragonbreath, Magma Bomb, Heat Stroke, and other skills, check out the sizzling video after the break.
You should know your role in Darkfall Unholy Wars. After all, your role determines a lot of what you're capable of doing at any given time, so it's pretty important. The newest development blog on the game gives a preview of one of the updated re-release's new roles for the Warrior, the defensive school known as the Battle-Brand. This is not a role for going out and making people miserable; this is a role for ruining the days of those trying to make you miserable.
The Battle-Brand's abilities include two self-buffs to reduce magical damage taken and reflect a portion of damage taken back to the source. It also features Foebringer, an AoE pull for all nearby enemies, and Bandage, a self-healing spell to keep the Warrior up longer. Last but not least is the ultimate ability, Stoic Defense, which makes the Warrior entirely immune to damage for a short time while consuming mana and stamina. Take a look at the role's abilities in action in a preview video just past the cut.

ANTIGO, WI (WTAQ) - Aquatic birds have been grounded in northern Wisconsin and Minnesota, thanks to frozen lakes and last week's heavy snows.
The Raptor Education Center in Antigo has rescued 51 loons over the past two weeks.
Center director Marge Gibson tells the Duluth News-Tribune that the loons were generally found to be in decent shape – but some had to cleaned and fed before they could be released in larger lakes to the south where the ice has melted.
In Duluth, the Wildwoods Rehab Center has rescued one loon and over dozen grebes. Those are similar to loons, but they have lobes on their toes.

Safeguarding Children in Education - Audit
Under S.175 Education Act 2002 Governing Bodies are required to monitor and report annually to the Local Authority on their safeguarding provision.
The audit tool 153 kB will help the Head teacher / Child Protection Liaison Officer to provide a report to the Governing Body on safeguarding practice. This will enable the Governing Body to monitor compliance with the requirements of S.175 Education Act 2002 & associated guidance, 'Safeguarding Children & Safer Recruitment in Education (2007)
The Annual Safeguarding Report must be completed by the head teacher on behalf of the Governing Body and sent to the Safeguarding Unit at HCC. It is the mechanism through which Governing Bodies can provide information to the Local Authority about how their safeguarding duties have been discharged. The Safeguarding Unit will then identify trends & broad areas for support.
Audit returns will be requested annually via school communications (or other correspondence for Academies) with a submission period between May and October.

Beyonce's long locks are gone and the world is mourning. But her new short cut has stars like Ellen Degeneres and Katie Couric pondering their own looks and fans, chopping off their own hair in solidarity with Sasha Fierce. Dear Lord a haircut hasn't made this many headlines since Michelle Obama cut bangs.
Kate Upton wants you to know while that Sports Illustrated cover made you feel all gooey inside, it made her feel terrible. She tells Elle Magazine she felt like poo for a month after her first Sports Illustrated cover. In fact it took nearly 11 more months to get her back out there, showing off her polar ice caps. That's right- she felt SO objectified she DID IT AGAIN. Nice try, Gorgeous but no one is shedding a tear for you because you're a knockout and you know it.
Matt Prokop is a Disney star who's had a steady career in film and TV and dates Sarah Hyland from Modern Family. Seems like an all-round easy go lucky guy… until he watched Fox11.

Our Mission: To be a leader in innovative, quality, lifelong learning that empowers adults to reach their life and career goals.
We are proud to be Canada's largest, most successful continuing education program, with approximately 70,000 enrollments each year. What brings people here? Five key elements:
Looking for information about taking courses at Ryerson? If you're a new or prospective student, visit New Students to get started.
The G. Raymond Chang School of Continuing Education is named in honour of the late G. Raymond Chang, OC, third chancellor of Ryerson University and Director of CI Financial, and his support and deep belief in lifelong learning. Our offices are located on the Ryerson campus in Heaslip House, a building named in honour of the late distinguished Canadian business leader and philanthropist William Arthurs Heaslip, CM, who was committed to education and lifelong learning.
Are you interested in making a career change? Pursuing advanced training in your professional field? Taking a course for personal enrichment? Continuing education at Ryerson provides relevant, quality educational programming geared to adult learners. We offer a variety of programs of study to help you achieve your goals:
Accessibility and flexibility are features of our programming – you can learn anytime, anywhere. Our innovative forms of delivery include the following:
See our Courses and Programs for detailed information about courses, programs of study, and delivery formats.
Our instructors combine theoretical knowledge with practical, on-the-job experience – and they pass that experience on to their students. Continuing education instructors are high achievers who we attract from industry and the business community, along with Ryerson University faculty. The majority of our instructors have extensive work experience in occupations that are directly relevant to the courses they teach; they are also interested in adopting new modes of delivery and new teaching methods.
If you're interested in continuing education at Ryerson to advance your career, update your skills, or to gain prerequisites for full-time programs at Ryerson University, you're in good company. Most Chang School students possess post-secondary education and are employed full-time, giving you the opportunity to interact with like-minded professionals.
Adult learners aged 50+ are a growing population at Ryerson's Chang School and truly epitomize the concept of lifelong learning. Our Programs for 50+ engage older adults through applied research, program development, and opportunities for transferring knowledge and wisdom. Among the programs offered are study groups, lecture series, a theatre school and drama centre, and an interactive website for older adults.
The collaborative model at Ryerson's Chang School is unique in Canada. It recognizes that continuous learning is best achieved by creating a distinct continuing education unit – one that can adapt to the unique needs of adult learners and at the same time be deeply connected to the University. This model makes part-time studies a great stepping stone to full-time education.
Our students benefit from our connections to other educational institutions, industry leaders, associations, and the local community. The Chang School has partnerships with professional associations, societies, and institutes in such diverse areas as international trade, banking and finance, community services, management, and engineering and applied science.

In my humble opinion, surgery on this patient should have been deferred pending hematology consultation.
The patient showed a microcytic anemia preoperatively yet nothing was presented to indicate that this systemic condition — which in and of itself could cause postoperative healing problems — was addressed with proper referral, determination of the underlying cause and proper treatment. This could be the tip of an iceberg or it could be nothing.
In either event, while it cannot be said with 100% accuracy that the postoperative allergic reaction was related to the anemia, had the allergic reaction sufficiently compromised the surgical site to allow for infection, this case would have been reported with a different outcome.
An infected surgical site compounded with an allergic reaction would have been challenging to say the least. But an infected surgical site compounded with an allergic reaction AND an anemic patient? This would have been a VERY challenging case.
The systemic demands on a patient in the postoperative period should never be underestimated. Surgery is a stress and in all likelihood, the patient's cortisol production will go up. Cortisol has systemic immunosuppressive effects. This is just one of the postoperative systemic effects of surgery to expect. The administration of drugs further taxes the patient physiologically for all drugs, in greater or lesser degrees, are poisons. The body has to process them and eliminate them.
Then there are more postoperative reactions. Given these, why perform ELECTIVE surgery on an already potentially compromised host? First and foremost, we are bound to do no harm. In the best interests of the patient, upon discovery of the blood anomaly preoperatively, the patient should have been appropriately referred and surgery withheld until competent medical clearance was established. This is elective surgery and as such, we have the luxury of putting it off until a patient's questionable condition has been addressed and either stabliized or otherwise handled. Why perform preoperative testing if not to protect the patient? And upon discovery of an anomaly, why not address it first and operate later? Again, this is my humble opinion, tempered with over 30 years of clinical experience.Reply to this comment »
Thank you for your comment. The most common cause of microcytic anemia in a 39-year-old female is iron deficiency secondary to menses. She had no history of chronic diseases. If I sent her to hematology for the minor lab abnormalities, I would feel like I am treating her labs. Moreover, she would probably have more tests done and in the end, she would be given an Rx for iron.Reply to this comment »
Thank you for your response. However, I stand by my comments. Your statements of "...microcytic anemia in a 39-year-old female is iron deficiency secondary to menses ... no history of chronic diseases ... treating her labs ... likely be given an Rx for iron ...," are presumptive and beyond the scope of the practice of podiatric medicine and surgery.
When any physician takes on a patient, we take on the whole person. If something happens to them, then for that patient its 100% and telling that patient after the fact that you proceeded based upon the "odds" of what the most common cause of their complication is is telling them that you gambled with their life. That she had no history of chronic disease means what? Were these preoperative findings indeed the hallmark to her first chronic or acute disease? This is unknown until proven otherwise. We do not treat labs, per se, but we must not ignore them and presume them to be what we want them to be because we are either anxious to operate or under patient pressure to do so. That would be akin to "junk science".
Case in point. I recently had a patient with chronic peroneal tendonosis confirmed by MRI that I was considering treating with PRP. He was a healthy, 46-year-old male who was not obese. He was a "perfectly" healthy person. I ran full bloods & urine including PSA. His PSA came back only slightly elevated. I referred him to his medical doctor. Long story short: He had malignant prostate cancer but it was caught early. The patient credits me with saving his life.
Over my 30 years of clinical experience, I have had several incidents of seemingly innocent preoperative findings that turned out to be much more. There was a 32-year-old female who was perfectly healthy and had no history of chronic disease. Her foot had a "fungus" that she stated had been treated in the past with creams but "it comes back ... I just deal with it." Her preoperative labs were ALL normal. But to be safe, I biopsied the "rash". Result: mycosis fungicides.
This condition is more common in men, is uncommon to present until the 5th decade of life, and comprises only 5% of all lymphomas. Had I treated her on the "odds" that her rash was "nothing," I would have done her a severe disservice. She is very thankful. While it is not curable, if it was untreated, it can have dire consequences including a spread to lymph nodes.
I have also discovered preoperatively hepatitis A and anemia in patients with slightly abnormal findings but a high index of suspicion and interest first in the patient's overall well-being. This lead to uncovering the underlying disease process and providing good service and competent referral to these patients. I'm not blowing my own horn, just relating what I've experienced.
In the presence of abnormal preoperative labs, repeating them to confirm the abnormality and rule out lab error can be ordered.
We are not trained in the intricacies of hematology. Blood analysis is evolving everyday revealing a dizzying maze of information. Leave that analysis to hematologists.
Further, you stated that following surgery, you scheduled the patient for her first post-operative visit in one week. In my humble opinion, this is too long. The first postoperative complication any surgeon is on the lookout for is infection, which hopefully shows its first signs in 48-72 hours. I was trained to see my post-ops in that time frame. A fresh dressing applied after removing a bloodied, compressed dressing is most welcomed by patients, increasing their comfort and confidence in their physician that they are being watched and taken care of. More importantly, it affords us the opportunity to inspect and head off something before it become a fulminating problem, such as what you experienced. Patients trust us and usually will not call for an unscheduled appointment unless in great discomfort, which again, you experienced.
After the first postoperative visit, when you documented a potentially important complication and prescribed an antibiotic, the next scheduled patient visit was ... in two weeks? In a patient with a documented postop complication, was this prudent? I would have scheduled to see that patient every 2-3 days to keep a close watch on the complication. Fortunately for you, the patient called you in two days, affording you exactly that opportunity.
One of my mentors, Stanley Kalish, DPM, gave me some advice I've never forgotten, that he'd learned from Marvin Steinberg, DPM: wisdom is the ability to learn from your own mistakes; intelligence is the ability to learn from the mistakes of others. If you could live long enough, you will learn all there is to know. But we don't. It is incumbent upon us to learn from the wisdom of those who have gone before us and make their wisdom our intelligence.
Overall, in my opinion, this case demonstrates an ill-advised pursuit to operate, presumption of the meaning of abnormal preoperative blood results, and too infrequent postoperative monitoring and management. You were fortunate this case didn't become your worst nightmare. Had this case gone to court, you would be hard pressed to defend your actions.
Thank you for submitting this case to the community for comment.Reply to this comment »
From medbc.com/annals/review/vol_9/num_3/text/vol9n3p168 dot htm :
"Recent studies suggest that mast cells participate in the pathogenesis of atopic and contact dermatitis, fibrosing reactions, bullous pemphigoid, cutaneous disorders, neurofibromatosis, wound healing, polycythemia vera, and psoriasis. ' An increase in the number of mast cells was observed in localized sclerodermia,' progressive systemic sclerosis,' and hypertrophic scars and keloids.1,1 Mast cell morphology was noted by Kischer and Bailey' in hypertrophic scars, mature scars and normal skin, and, some years later, mast cell analysis was also performed during the different stages of healing.'"
The above quote adds emphasis to this question: in a patient with a history of keloid formation, why use a topical skin adherent with its attendant possibility for cutaneous reaction?
The patient had already demonstrated a predisposition to cutaneous complication. Why challenge her skin with a substance that she could potentially be allergic to?
In such a patient, would it not be more prudent to avoid anything extra that could potentially become a problem later?
Hindsight is always 20-20 but this case did give warning: the history of keloids.
While, "...a minimal reactive suture ...," was used, "...due to the history of keloids...," showing your awareness for potential allergic reaction and desire to minimize it, why then did you use substances (Mastisol, Steri-Strips) topically?
Mast cells are mediators of allergic responses.
In a patient with already documented skin complication which histologically shows an increase in mast cells, would it not be wiser to limit the materials used in surgery to the absolute minimum and with little to no reactivity?Reply to this comment »
It looks like we can go round and round on this one. I appreciate your comments and we have all had similar cases that you illustrated. What I don't appreciate is your opinion as to whether I am practicing within the standard of care.
I always see my first post-op check up in a week unless it is a wound or an infection. My philosophy is different than yours. I would rather have my patient rest, elevate, and ice for a week rather than schlepping around 2-3 days post op and then have the fresh wound exposed to air. When I remove my bandage following a bunion surgery, there is typically a blood spot the size of a quarter on the the gauze square. I don't use tourniquets and when the skin is closed, there is no bleeding. Hopefully, Dr. Kalish taught you anatomic dissection and proper tissue handling so that you don't have to worry about hematomas and bloody bandages.
I have a special relationship with my patients that allows me to have them follow up in week or two as needed. I give them my cell phone number and I keep a close eye on them. If there is a problem, they will let me know. My patients don't want to come in every day or two unless it is really necessary.
This will be my last comment related to your original post. I am sure you would like to get the last word in so be my guest.Reply to this comment »

On the eve of critical midterm elections, Julian Bond, longtime civil rights leader and NAACP chairman, will address a gathering of lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender leaders in Miami. In the face of a contentious and prolonged national debate over equal rights for LGBT people, Bond has taken an unequivocal position: "…when I am asked, 'Are gay rights civil rights?' my answer is always, 'Of course.'" Bond will be honored by the National Gay and Lesbian Task Force, the country's oldest LGBT advocacy organization, for his outstanding and courageous support of LGBT rights. As a national civil rights leader, his contribution to the current struggle for equality stands as a beacon of hope in a time when few have shown the courage to face down anti-gay political and religious leaders who malign lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender citizens for political gain.

Our Policy Institute, the movement's premier think tank, provides research and policy analysis to support the struggle for complete equality and to counter right-wing lies. As part of a broader social justice movement, we work to create a nation that respects the diversity of human expression and identity and creates opportunity for all.

DULUTH, MN (KDAL) - On Thursday, May 2nd, Duluth Police and investigators with the Lake Superior Drug and Violent Crimes Taskforce were conducting surveillance at a residence in the 3900 block of West 5th Street. As the resident and subject of the investigation was returning home, he noticed an unmarked squad car, rammed it with his vehicle and fled by driving through a playground across the street. Several citizens called to report the suspect's vehicle had crashed near 57th Avenue West and Medina Street. The suspect, 38 year old Nino Alonzo Franklin, was located a short distance away from the crash and arrested. Investigators retraced the route Franklin took while fleeing on foot and found 4600 dollars that he had discarded. Police also found over 13 grams of heroin, scales, packaging and other evidence of drug sales and two guns at his residence. Franklin has been charged with 1st degree possession of a controlled substance with intent to sell and 2 counts of possession of a firearm by a felon. He has several convictions in Minnesota for burglary and domestic assault dating back to 2005.

Has open source hit a tipping point?
Tipping Point
Open source in the news, at events around the globe, and now delivered in convenient flyer form.
Today I read an article in the Harvard Business Review called Open Source Software Hits a Strategic Tipping Point. Author Laurie Wurster writes, "Based on surveys my colleagues at Gartner and I have conducted over the past several years, mainstream adopters of IT solutions across a widening array of market segments are rapidly gaining confidence in the use of open source software, with many now stressing its valuable features more than its risks."

The Calgary Flames and Swedish club Vasteras have reached an agreement to allow prospect Mikael Backlund to play with the Kelowna Rockets of the Western Hockey League.
Earlier, a report in the Calgary Herald said Vasteras officials were angry with the Flames after Backlund played for the Flames on Thursday. They were under the assumption that Backlund would rejoin the Swedish club after the World Junior Hockey Championship.
''Mikael Backlund has not been given permission to play for another club,'' Vasteras official Anders Eklund told the Swedish media on the weekend. ''There is nothing in his agreement with us that allows him to play for a club in North America and we don't think it's right that he did this without communicating with us."
But now Vasteras, Hockey Sweden and the IIHF all agreed over the weekend that it was best to sign Backlund's transfer card and allow him to play in the WHL.
Backlund's father said Vasteras general manager Leif Rohlin and his constant criticism of his son's play was most blame for Backlund's decision to leave the Swedish club.
''Before that, he would have been more hesitant,'' Jan Backlund told the Hockey Sverige website. ''Now it was probably a pretty easy decision.''

LOUISVILLE, Ky. (News Release) – Sophomore Michael Lippens' 5-7, 7-5, 6-2 win over Daniel Bednarczyk lifted the University of Louisville men's tennis team a 4-3 win over visiting Indiana Wednesday evening at the Bass-Rudd Tennis Center. The Cardinals (9-7) improved their home win streak to 16 matches.
"I'm so happy for Michael Lippens to close out this match, he did an amazing job," said U of L head coach Rex Ecarma. "He stayed cool under pressure and did all the things coach daSilva told him to do on the court. I'm just really happy for him and the team to come out and win 4-3. We've had so many matches this season where we've had opportunities - just like we did today – and ended up losing 3-4, so it was good to win that type of match."
The Hoosiers (6-8) took the doubles point to start the match. Indiana's Josh MacTaggart and Daniel Bednarczyk defeated sophomores Sebastian Stiefelmeyer and Luis Elizondo 8-1 at the No. 2 spot to gain an early advantage. Court No. 1 featured a battle between the Cards' tandem of sophomore Albert Wagner and freshman Austin Siegel and Indiana's Sam Monette and Isade Juneau. Wagner and Siegel found themselves down 6-3, but rallied to tie the score at 7-7 before falling 8-7 in the clinching doubles match. Minutes later, Louisville freshman Alex Gornet and sophomore Van Damrongsri picked up an 8-4 win over Elliott Yee and Chris Essick at No. 3.
In singles action, Gornet tied the match at 1-1 with a 6-0, 6-1 win over Essick at the No. 6 spot. Sophomore Luis Elizondo defeated Yee 6-3, 6-1 at No. 5 to give the Cards a 2-1 lead. Stiefelmeyer's 6-4, 6-3 win over Juneau at the top seed increased Louisville's lead to 3-1.
Indiana pulled within a point at the No. 3 spot where MacTaggart defeated Simich 6-2, 6-4 to make the score 3-2. On court No. 2, Wagner picked up a 6-4 win in the first set, but Monette took the next two 6-1 and 6-4 to tie the score at 3-3.
The match was decided at the No. 4 spot where Lippens and Bednarczyk battled in a three-set thriller. Bednarczyk defeated Lippens 7-5 in the first set, but Lippens responded with a 7-5 win in the second to force a third set to determine the winner of the match. Lippens clinched the match with a 6-2 decision in the third.
U of L will play host to No. 6 Oklahoma Friday at 5 p.m.
