Baseball, or any sport for that matter, has one major consistency, above all: concentration. The game of baseball has long been known as much for the "mental side aspects" as the "physical."
The time a professional hitter has to recognize a pitch - the speed, break and location - is around a half-a-second; basically the same time it takes to read..."this!"
That time, and subsequent timing, is what separates the professional from the prematurely retired. Being able to concentrate, and decipher a pitch, is the first thing any hitting coach will attempt to teach and, nothing new about it, is never easy to accomplish - don't swing with your eye's closed. The best of the MLB have got a concentration level, mixed with power-ability and quick hands, that is an outstanding, awe-impressive sight to see.
Even in the field of play, the speed of the game requires each piece of the nine to be at pure attentiveness, knowing exactly where the next play, throw, pitch, base-runner and out is occurring. Mental lapses in the game are what drive coaches, and other players, bananas - and most often out of a job. Without the mental marbles, the MLB season can wear down and expose anyone not on top of their game, with relative and ferocious ease.
With all that in mind, the season, and career, Adam LaRoche has managed to produce is nothing short of amazing, and questionably worthy of historical importance. Not only for the game of baseball itself, but also for the thousands that stand hidden, possibly ashamed, of A.D.D. or A.D.H.D.
Coming into today, LaRoche has provided the much-needed pop from the left-side in the Washington Nationals line-up. At .270, 29 home-runs and 92 R.B.I.'s, LaRoche has quietly constructed a stellar season, and the team is benefiting because of it. While other players on the team - Strasburg and Harper - have showered in the media-rain storm this year, Adam, like always, has gone about his game, business as usual. However, his "game," is everything but usual.
Diagnosed with A.D.H.D. in high school, LaRoche has battled with the condition, while attempting to fulfill a dream of professional baseball, with the odds stacked heavily against him. Many scouts and even LaRoche's coaches have harped on his lack-of-interest demeanor early in his career - both, at the plate and in the field. In a game where the mental-side is a high percentage of a player's make-up, LaRoche has endured more than a few doubters, but he continued regardless. Scenarios that most players see as muscle memory - when due-up to the plate, the number of outs or a hustle factor - are not the same guarantee in the mind of LaRoche.
In 2006, while with Atlanta, he fielded a ground-ball at first and nonchalantly ran to the bag, where he was beat out by the runner - oddly enough, it was against the Nationals. Since that time, his "disability," has been brought more into the public's attention. But, that doesn't matter to LaRoche...at all.
In the past eight-years he has been in the starting line-up for an MLB team, which is more than a lot of striving baseball player's can say. While he doesn't possess star-like power, fielding or speed, he has always provided a perfect piece to a team's chemistry; he has long been ordained a "class act" as a man, in the clubhouse and away, by reporters and his teammates. In a time when most people can't go three seconds on the job without losing focus, it's amazing to see someone, hindered by A.D.H.D, perform at the level he does, with so many odd-factors of life rooting against him.
Finally, as the Nationals inch closer to the playoffs, Adam LaRoche is getting his due and recognition as a key player in the MLB. If the Nationals are to make a serious push come October, LaRoche will have to provide the same pop that he has more recently. It's a huge task, for anyone, but even more so for him.
Regardless of the outcome, Adam LaRoche deserves an absolute ton of credit. Perhaps not as an MVP, but more so as a quiet-renegade against something that affects people everywhere, most importantly.
At the very least, he does not have to play for the Chicago Cubs.
Adam LaRoche's Impressive Season Should Bring Hope for Some

Great Jacket
December 16, 2009
bought this for my husband. looks great. preforms great. do wish it was a little longer.
March 29, 2011
I wish the hood rolled up to be stored in a zipper pocket. Otherwise this is good for the opening day of MLB in the Northeast. The construction is solid. The seams are covered. The length is a little short but that does not bother me. I would buy this again. As for durability I will have to let you know.Pros: Build quality, Great value
Great product.
November 09, 2009
Some nice new changes however it says that it comes with a stuff sack and ours did not have one.
Nice Jacket
December 01, 2009
I have actually only used it once but it was in the rain and I stayed dry and it did not feel bulky. My wife also got one because it was a good value.
Good Looking Coat
November 11, 2010
This coat provides excellent rain protection with a good fit and style. Ample zippered vents under the arms allow for ventilation when things get hot or humid. They can be awkward to open and close while you are wearing it. Drawstrings and a tethered jacket storage pouch make it convenient to keep stowed in a backpack or urban bag.Pros: Performance
Does the job very well.
December 10, 2011
The pros: *Definitely does what it's designed to do. *Waterproof and windproof. (I wore it in a light to medium rain, in 39-46 degree weather, stayed dry and warm). *Storm flap covers zipper (important). *Has long pit vent zippers, (has 2 zippers per each vent!) a must have for internal temp. control. *Very generous adjustable hood. *Easily adjustable cuffs. *Superb jet black outer color. *Very light. *Bag attached to inner side pocket. Cons: (for me) *Prefer inner color to be black, don't like the look of wearing a white plastic 'refuse' bag. I prefer also not to be too noticeable, would be much better if inner were black. *Only he chest pocket is connected on the inside by 4 thin 'attachments' eventually may be an issue. All other pockets no problems. Overall an excellent buy, especially on "Black Friday". Just wish the inside was black.Pros: Great design, Build quality, Performance, Ease of use, Great value, very light & folds small., small connected pocket bag can hold my gloves., Cons: white color on inside., 4 thin inner chest pocket connections.
The NEW "HP" model not great :(
February 07, 2013
I had the original Sierra Designs Men's Hurricane Jacket 40669, loved it, fit and performed perfectly (purchased on Altrec). Unfortunately after a first wash some inner white backing peeled off from the outer shell. I sent it to Sierra Designs cust. serv. Warranty and they cheerfully quickly replaced it... but what they sent to me is the newer Men's Hurricane Jacket "HP" model. The "HP" size Med. is too small & tight (orig. Med. was perfect) plus, the overall feel is not the same and design of the cordage on the "HP" model is a completely different design than the 40669 model and rather flimsy. I just contacted Sierra Designs, they are shipping me a Men's Hurricane Jacket 40669, no questions asked.... SUPERB customer service, they definitely back their products! I recommend the Men's Hurricane Jacket "40669" model but not the "HP" model.Cons: Bad design
Nice Jacket
May 29, 2011
I use my jacket for biking in the rain - it can be folded/rolled and stored in my bag. It keeps me dry, but it truly is a shell - it won't keep you warm without insulating layer. The seams are taped nicely. Overall, it's a very nice jacket.
October 08, 2011
This jacket did exactly what I needed it to. It keep my dry and comfortable. The ventilation zippers work well to keep air moving thru the jacket without letting in water. The Price from Altrec helped as well. =)Pros: Great design, Build quality, Lasts forever, Performance, Ease of use, Great value

Well made
December 05, 2009
I like the way the seams are all reinforced on the inside. It is a well made jacket and the hood is big enough to fit easily over a hard hat. I have a 49" chest and am over 6', I ordered the 2xx and it just barely fit over an insulated flannel shirt. It is also shorter than I expected, comes to about 3 inches below the belt line. So order an extra size bigger and make sure you get pants or you'll have a wet rear end.
More Comfortable than Most Rain Jackets
October 25, 2012
I really like this jacket because it has a nice insulating liner rather than just a pure shell. This makes it fairly warm in addition to being waterproof and windproof and the ventilation is an awesome feature for letting some heat out preventing sweating. I'm 6'1" and 185 and the XL is perfect for my longer arms - great movement.Pros: Great design, Build quality, Performance
Ease of ordering
October 16, 2012
I bought this jacket as a gift to match pants my husband bought. The quality seems good. The best part is the ease of finding and ordering this product! I do a lot of online shopping and this is the first time I have ordered from Altrec. It was very simple and easy and the 100% guarantee makes it a no brainer! Great find!!!

If you have been arrested for Driving Under the Influence in Placer County there are a few tips that you should follow to minimize the effects of your arrest. Often, a layman that does not know the system will be steam-rolled by the District Attorney in Court. There are many defenses to Driving Under the Influence charges that the unrepresented defendant will not know. For instance, if you have taken a blood test, it is often beneficial to have your blood sample re-tested. If your result comes out higher, no one will ever know, but if your results come out lower, your attorney can present this evidence to the District Attorney to demonstrate that you may not have been driving with as high a level as previously thought.
Sometimes because of your pattern of drinking you may have had less alcohol in your system at the time of driving than you did two hours later when you were tested. This defense is called the rising blood alcohol defense. It may be beneficial for you and your attorney to consult with a scientific alcohol expert who can analyze your level of intoxication at the time of driving.
Also, you should be aware of the opportunity to request a hearing in regards to your license suspension before the Department of Motor Vehicles. Your license will not be suspended until after a decision on your hearing, but you must request the hearing within ten days of your arrest or the suspension will remain in effect.
If you need any help in fighting your D.U.I. case please do not hesitate to contact Placer County D.U.I. attorney, Former Superior Court Commissioner, David P. Foos.
Retired Commissioner Foos has over thirty years experience in dealing with D.U.I. cases. Many of these years were spent on the Superior Court bench where he heard D.U.I. cases on an everyday basis. Since retiring from the bench Commissioner Foos has represented many individuals who have been accused of driving under the influence and Commissioner Foos knows all the angles in providing to you the best representation possible. David Foos can be contacted at email@example.com or by telephone at (916) 9232-2800.

Day deceives, but at night no one is safe from hallucinations. The legends here are all of bloodfeuds and suicide, uncanny foresight and supernatural knowledge. Before the convict workers put in the road, loneliness drove women to jump into the sea. Tales were told of the convicts: how some went mad along the Coast, while others became hypnotized by it, and, when they were released, returned to marry local girls.
The long days seduce all thought away, and we lie like lizards in the sun, postponing our lives indefinitely…

Church-bells beyond the stars heard, the soul's

Effingham Christian School took its annual egg drop competition to new heights this year.
Members of the Effingham County High School chapter of Family, Career and Community Leaders of America (FCCLA) recently participated in a weekend leadership conference March 14-16 at the Classic Center in Athens.

News of the Weird: Too Busy for Court
At a June hearing, a Philadelphia judge became so exasperated at defendant Robert Williams' seeming cluelessness about his need to keep his probation appointments that she ordered him to take "etiquette" classes before returning to court. Williams, a rap singer and budding music mogul still under court supervision on gun and drug charges from 2008, cavalierly defended his inability to find time for his probation officer by explaining that he was a busy man, working with seven "artists," with a demanding travel schedule, and uninhibitedly using social media (creating posts that, allegedly, led to threats against the probation officer). (Williams, of course, was accompanied to court by a several-man entourage.)

Tuesday brought a surprise development in the search for a new Mishawaka School Superintendent.
Dan Towner, the man who has served the last six months as acting superintendent, no longer wants to be considered for the permanent job.
Towner was scheduled to meet behind closed doors with the school board Tuesday night to be interviewed for the job
"And that meeting was going to determine and probably that Dan was going to be our superintendent , I mean, you know, on a permanent basis. And he rethought it and thought about his priorities and decided knowing that's probably the direction we were going to go that he did not want to pursue that," said Larry Stillson, Mishawaka School Board President.
Stillson says the School Board's job of finding a new superintendent just got a lot harder, because members will have to find someone the community will embrace, as it had Dan Towner.
Towner will remain as acting superintendent until a new superintendent is chosen.

Clever Agents in Young's Evolutionary Bargaining Model
AbstractIn the models of Young (1993a, b), boundedly rational individuals are recurrently matched to play a game, and they play myopic best replies to the recent history of play. It could therefore be an advantage to instead play a myiopic best reply to the myopic best reply, something boundedly rational players might conceivably also do. We investigate this possibility in the context of Young's (1993b) bargaining model. It turns out that "cleverness" in this respect indeed does have an advantage in some cases. However, if all individuals are equally informed about past play, in a statistical sense, then the Nash bargaining solution remains the unique long-run outcome when the mutation rate goes to zero.

KEARNEYSVILLE – Thousands have swarmed to the Jefferson County Fairgrounds this week, but there's much more fun to be had before the annual extravaganza of rural life wraps up Saturday night.
[cleeng_content id="573674835" description="Read it now!" price="0.15"]Tonight brings several contests, including a speed texting showdown and eating competitions in categories from pie to ice cream, plus a demolition derby, a kiddie tractor pull and more.
On the lineup in the days ahead: a pig scramble, a mud bog, a magic show, the Bubbles and Mr. B clown act, a martial arts demo and many more special events. Every night, there's carnival rides, the chance to see fair exhibits, plus favorite fair fare such as corn dogs, candy apples and funnel cake.
Music is another big element of a night at the fair. Tonight, there's a show from Morgantown-based '80s cover band Rick K. and The Allnighters (for details, see Out&About, Page B3) and then Saturday evening brings performances from the Back Creek Valley Boys, the Panhandle-based bluegrass band that's been a favorite at the Pickin' in the Panhandle bluegrass festival and many other venues across the region.
Outstanding country music is a fair tradition that dates back to the very beginning of the Jefferson County Fair. At the first fair in October of 1953, none other than future Country Music Hall of Famer Patsy Cline, then just 21, took center stage.

2 PC-BSD Articles in May Issue of BSDMag">2 PC-BSD Articles in May Issue of BSDMag
The May issue of BSDMag (available for free download here) has two articles about PC-BSD.
Kris Moore has an article "A Fresh Look for the Warden for PC-BSD 9.1″ on pp. 6–9. Warden is a GUI tool for managing FreeBSD jails and has been rewritten for 9.1. New features include the ability to add multiple jails, the ability to create FreeBSD jails or ports jails (which use nullfs to allow you to safely install and run apps on your PC-BSD system), and the ability to export and import jails.
Jesse Smith has an article "Introducing EasyPBI–Making PBI Modules With a Few Mouse Clicks" on pp. 18–19. EasyPBI allows one to convert an existing FreeBSD port into a PC-BSD PBI with an easy-to-use GUI.

Update on PC-BSD Localization
Kris sent the following update to the translations mailing list regarding menu localizations:
I wanted to give you a quick status update on some of the changes for Translations in the 9-STABLE snapshots, and eventually PC-BSD 9.1.
First, all languages which are available in Pootle will now be selectable for installation. Should a string not be fully translated, the default English string will be displayed instead. This will allow you to begin testing any/all languages in the upcoming snapshots.
Second, I have removed the "pbimeta.po" file from the translation process. This file had been getting so large, that it was becoming quite unreasonable to expect our translators to tackle it. This means in Pootle now you will see a more accurate representation of the translations progress. I'm currently investigating alternative methods of translating the AppCafe application descriptions.
Third and lastly, I've implemented some cleanup functionality into the scripts which sync the strings into Pootle. As a string is modified or removed from our subversion tree, the old string will now be automatically purged from the Pootle database, keeping the number of strings for translation at a manageable amount.
Thanks for all the work you've done to translate PC-BSD into other languages! Let us know on the translations mailing list if you have any questions, or run into problems going forward.
9-STABLE-20120418 Testing Snapshot Available">9-STABLE-20120418 Testing Snapshot Available
Kris has just announced the availability of the first testing snapshot for the upcoming 9.1 release. This snapshot can be downloaded from here.
NOTE: This snapshot is only available for 64-bit systems. Also, if you need the new GEM/KMS support provided in the previous snapshot, do not install this new snapshot on your main system as that support has been removed, pending its commital to FreeBSD. If you need that support and would like to test the new snapshot, test it in a virtual environment.
The wiki is gradually being updated with the new installer and Warden information and those sections will change over the next few days to match the capabilities of this snapshot.
From the announcement:
The PC-BSD team is pleased to make available the first public 9-STABLE snapshot for 64bit systems!
This snapshot provides both users and developers a means to test out new features in the upcoming PC-BSD 9.1 release. This snapshot may contain buggy code and features, so users are encouraged to run it only on non-critical systems.
- FreeBSD 9-STABLE from 4-11-2012
- New system installer! Greatly simplified for desktop and server installs.
- New "PC-BSD Server" installation option. Includes command-line utilities like pbi-manager, warden, metapkgmanager and more.
- Support for ZFS mirror / raidz(1,2,3) during installation.
- Support for SWAP on ZFS, allowing entire disk ZFS installation.
- Support for setting additional ZFS data-set options, such as compression, noexec, etc.
- Warden jail management integrated into system. Allows creating jails via GUI, adding packages and other administration.
- First boot setup wizard allows OEM installs to be easily performed.
- New Bluetooth paring tray / GUI utilities.
- New AppCafe improvements and preferences.
- Improvements to wifi utility.
- Fixed bug causing untranslated strings to show up empty.
- Numerous bug-fixes to PC-BSD related utilities.
- There is a bug installing to boot-camp partitions which will be fixed in next snapshot.
- The warden rc.d script is not enabled by default. Add 'warden_enable="YES"' to /etc/rc.conf to enable.
- The i386 image was not built for this snapshot, however it will available in the upcoming weeks.
- The installer will not correctly start on systems with < 512MB of ram, which will be fixed in upcoming snapshots.
- This snapshot does NOT contain the upcoming Intel GEM/KMS video driver support. This will be available in a future snapshot.

Interview with Kris Moore
As part of their Developer's Corner series, iXsystems has posted an interview with lead PC-BSD developer, Kris Moore. The interview hints at some of the exciting features being developed for 9.1.
Speaking of exciting features, we expect the next testing snapshot to be ready in a week or so. This snapshot will include the changes to Warden which will make it easier than ever to manage jails on a PC-BSD system.
9.1 Installer Documentation">Initial 9.1 Installer Documentation
For those of you trying out the 9.0-STABLE-20120225 testing snapshot, or who are curious about the revamped installer for 9.1, Chapters 3, 4, and 5 of the PC-BSD Handbook have been updated with the new screenshots and functionality. Some sections are still being tested or aren't yet fully implemented and will contain a comment to that effect in ALL CAPS.
I particularly like the new FreeBSD setup wizard; that and the ability to configure ZFS and encryption during installation makes it my new FreeBSD installer of choice.
Some of the new installer features will be refined between now and 9.1-RELEASE and the documentation will be updated accordingly. We will be releasing regular testing snapshots between now and 9.1 to give testers ample time to test new features as they are implemented. It is expected that the next testing snapshot will contain bug fixes from the last snapshot, the new gdm GUI configuration tool, and the changes to Warden that Kris is currently coding.
If you have any feedback or suggestions for the new installer, please send them to the PC-BSD testing mailing list.
Call for Testers: Bluetooth Manager
PC-BSD 9.1 will include a new GUI for managing bluetooth devices.
If you would like to assist in testing this GUI, you can compile and install the code on your PC-BSD 9.0 system as follows:
First, make sure that these two development packages are showing as installed in Control Panel -> System Manager -> System Packages -> Development:
- Development-VCS
- Development-Qt
As superuser, download the source and compile the Bluetooth Manager and Tray applications:
svn co svn://svn.pcbsd.org/pcbsd/current/src-qt4/
cd src-qt4/libpcbsd
qmake-qt4 *.pro
make && make install
cd ../pc-bluetoothmanager
qmake-qt4 *.pro
make && make install
cd ../pc-bluetoothtray
qmake-qt4 *.pro
make && make install
When finished, leave the superuser account and start the Bluetooth Manager:
pc-su pc-bluetoothmanager (will prompt for superuser password)
Alternately, place the Bluetooth Manager in the system tray:
pc-su pc-bluetoothtray (will prompt for superuser password)
Note that the Bluetooth Tray currently activates on right-click, but nothing activates on left-click as of yet.
If you try it out, let us know if you encounter any errors or need additional functionality. Feedback can be sent to the testing mailing list.

When life hands you lemons
Whit Davis Elementary School first graders Abigail Chen (left) and Emma Rentz listen to UGA entomologist Joe McHugh as he talks to their class as part of LemonAid on May 3. More than 20 faculty members from the Division of Biological Sciences in Franklin College volunteered with the outreach program to visit Athens area schools to talk about their specialties. The name of this program came from professors wanting to make something good out of the "lemons" of furlough days. Reading Day, the day students have off to prepare for finals, gave the professors at UGA the perfect opportunity to reach out and connect with the community.

When I transferred to Nebraska Wesleyan, I was undecided on a major—and on life. My advisor (Professor Emeritus of French Tony Epp) suggested that I just go "look around" a bit, take some general requirements and see what interested me. One class changed my life; it was "Introduction to the New Testament" with Professor of Religion David Peabody.
|I immediately recognized that the academic study of religion is not Sunday school.
Being the son of a United Methodist minister and having grown up in the church, I assumed that a religion class would be a piece of cake. However, I immediately recognized that the academic study of religion is not Sunday school. About two weeks into class, I made an appointment with Dr. Peabody. My opening statement was, "My dad's a minister. And I've never heard any of this stuff you're talking about. Where are you getting it from?"
His response was, "Is your God big enough?"
Well, God was (and is) big enough. Given the fact that I later attended seminary, was ordained a UM pastor, completed my Doctor of Ministry degree and have served in a variety of ministry settings, I guess you could say that this one class—and the wise, challenging words of a professor—literally changed my life.

Hooks, rounds and whips—all types of worms—are the intestinal parasites that can cause all sorts of icky issues for not only your pet, but you too.
Hookworms are blood sucking parasites that invade and "hook" onto the wall of the small intestines. A majority of dogs obtain hookworms by ingesting their larvae, or when larvae penetrate their skin or foot pads. Damp environments and cool soil are ideal conditions for hookworm egg survival. Symptoms include poor appetite, diarrhea and dark stool. If hookworm larvae get into the lungs, then coughing and other symptoms can occur. If left untreated, hookworms can be fatal.
The roundworm is the most common intestinal parasite, easily spread and hard to control. They resemble spaghetti in appearance and typically cause soft stool, diarrhea and sometimes vomiting. Your pet can easily contract round worms through contaminated feces or catching little critters like rodents.
The dirty truth—as if this article isn't dirty enough already—is that roundworms and hookworms are zoonotic. This is a fancy word that means your pet can transmit these parasites to you and your family. Do you have little ones around the house? Children are the most prone to zoonotic parasites because they are always touching their faces and putting their hands in their mouths. So just imagine your little one playing with the family pet, who happens to be carrying an intestinal parasite.
Whipworms are very resilient to different temperatures and can harbor in the soil for five to seven years. So all year long, these bad boys pose a threat. Your pet gets infected by ingesting the whipworm eggs, directly or indirectly through contaminated paws that reach the mouth. Like hookworms and roundworms, whipworms cause diarrhea, weight loss, anemia and possibly death.
Unfortunately, intestinal parasites will always be a threat; it's just a matter of knowing what's out there and how to prevent it.
Bonus protection: Most heartworm preventatives also prevent hooks, rounds, and whips. A great way to kill or block four different parasites with one preventative. It's that easy.

Vt. woman sentenced in texting crashJanuary 10,2013BURLINGTON A Colchester woman has been sentenced to 30 days in jail for hitting a pedestrian with her car while texting and driving.
Twenty-year-old Emma Vieira of Colchester had pleaded guilty in October to grossly negligent operation of a motor vehicle with injury resulting for striking and seriously injuring 53-year-old Deb Drewniak in August, 2011, as Drewniak was walking her dog in the dark in Colchester.
On Tuesday, the families of both the driver and the victim discussed the Vieras remorse and appropriate jail time. The Burlington Free Press reports (http://bfpne.ws/MuLU ) that both families said Vieira expressed remorse but they had different opinions about whether she should serve time in jail.
Judge Michael Kupersmith sentenced Vieira to 30 days in jail, five months home confinement and five years of probation.MORE IN Vermont NewsGoddard College is getting national attention for its choice in commencement speaker for the...

Table and chair throwing brawl at tranny fashion ball caught on video
A fashion ball featuring transgender participants in North Carolina was disrupted when a "sore loser" began throwing chairs.
Charlotte-Mecklenburg police are using a YouTube video to identify the participants of the brawl, the Charlotte Observer reports.
The blurry video throws several people throwing chairs as others ran out of the venue. One big girl, identified by the camera man as "Marva", picked up a table and hurled it across the room.
Police responded to a 911 call reporting a disturbance at the NDemand venue around 2 a.m. Monday but found no one with visible signs of injuries.
"MARVA, YOU WAS NOT PLAYING WITH THAT TABLE, GURL!" the camera man shouted as Marva, who caused the most damage, and a friend strutted by.
A CMPD spokeswoman said the party goers were not participating in helping to identify the brawl participants.
The party featured an all-gay tranny ball and fashion show that led to the brawl, NDemand owner Charlene Henderson told WCNC-TV.
At least no one got shot.
Thanks to loyal reader Angiegirl for the video!

Hosts fall at 37th Snowball Tourney
Neither team from the host institution reached the finals of the 37th Annual Norwood Fontbonne Academy Snowball Tournament last weekend, but there was plenty of lively hoops action all the way through the championship round, where the finals in both the boys' and girls' brackets were decided by single-digit margins.
In the girls' title game, Oreland's Holy Martyrs gave up most of a 17-6 halftime lead, but they revived in the concluding minutes to defeat St. Philip Neri of Lafayette Hill, 30-22. Trailing by a few points at the end of each of the first three periods, Flourtown's St. Genevieve squad pulled even with St. Alphonsus of Maple Glen at 32-all with less than three minutes remaining. St. Alph's regrouped for the stretch run and pulled out a 38-33 victory.
The boys and girls playing for the Norwood Bears each came away with a win and a loss over the course of the tourney, and the eighth-grade team from Springside School was a new addition to the girls' draw this year. Opening round contests took place on Thursday and Friday, with semifinal and consolation games on Saturday and the finals on Sunday morning.
CHC men are latest to conquer Holy Family
Entering last Thursday's conference game with an overall record of 4-7, the Chestnut Hill College men's basketball team encountered a squad that is truly struggling.
The Griffins took advantage of the situation, climbing one game closer to the .500 mark with a 79-62 victory over their hapless hosts at Holy Family University. CHC picked up its first win in the Central Atlantic Collegiate Conference (where the Griffins are now 1-2), while the Tigers saw their record sink to 0-4 in the CACC and 0-12 overall.
Two of CHC's younger guards, sophomore Ryan Cook and freshman Mark DiRugeris, put in 12 and 10 points, respectively in the first 20 minutes as the visitors assumed a 35-22 halftime lead. Cook would finish with 22 points and four assists and DiRugeris wound up with 12 points, while Larz Jeter came on to score all of his 15 points in the second period, and grabbed seven rebounds, to boot. The Griffins also got eight points and a game-high 13 rebounds from Dan Comas, as well as seven points from Julian McFadden and six points and six assists from Francis Ashe.
Instead of sweeping in from the Steppes, the Hun School Raiders came across the Scudders Falls Bridge from Princeton, arriving last Wednesday afternoon at the Old York Road ice rink that's the home venue for Chestnut Hill Academy's hockey squad.
The Blue Devils had suffered a 4-1 loss to Hun back in December, but the New Year brought a different outcome as CHA won last week's rematch, 2-1.
Mount basketball adds four wins in a week
Mount St. Joseph Academy got right down to business in the new year with four games on last week's agenda. On Monday and Tuesday, the Magic racked up comfortable victories over non-league rival Penn Wood High School (65-21) and Catholic Academies colleague Sacred Heart (46-24).
The W's did not come as easily later in the week, but in a pair of league contests the Mount was able to win at Nazareth on Thursday, 49-38, and at home against Merion Mercy on Saturday, 38-36. This successful stretch raised the club's record to 5-1 in league play and 10-1 overall.
On their first day back in school after the Christmas break, the Magic eased back into action against a 2-7 Penn Wood squad. Lay-ups by Mary Jo Horgan and Steph Smith got host MSJ rolling, and with two field goals and a free throw by Tara Barr, the Mount was ahead 9-0 before Tyneisha Whitsette (11 points total) got the Patriots on the scoreboard.
After the first period ended at 17-8, the Magic would score the first nine points of the second quarter, as well. The hosts were up 35-14 at the intermission, and even with the Mount's generous use of its bench in the second half, the visitors couldn't make any headway.

Arah Farming Guide by DeadlyStormZ
DeadlyStormZ on GW2.com has posted a very nice Arah farming guide. Lots of work and detail has been put into it and many GW2 players will enjoy this information. Great work and we all thank you for your contribution to the GW2 community DeadlyStormZ
Arah Farming Guide by DeadlyStormZ
Hi everyone. I just completed 23 runs of Arah days ago. I have done it with static groups, random people, good folks and bad folks so I want to write a guide which helps people to do Arah. I hope you guys can find it useful.
Patience. Communication. Skipping the right mobs.
Which path should I take?
Path 3 > Path 2 > Path 1 > Path 4
For average players, Path 3 takes ~1.5 hours Path 2 takes ~2 hours Path 1 takes ~2.5 hours Path 4 takes ~3+ hours
Please make sure you have more than enough time when you are new/grouping with random people.
General mobs encounter
It should be the first piority target to nuke down. It is melee friendly.
It should be the second piority target to nuke down.
It is not melee friendly unless you stay in its back. Reflection works extremely well here.
It summons eagles. Its axe can bounce targets. Reflection is also working good here.
It has a melee skill to knock you down for 8 seconds.
Boss 1
Kill crasher first. You just need to dodge the crasher's melee skill so you won't get one-shot. You may get killed if you fail to remove the Immobilized condition.
Path to boss 2
I want to include this bacause I find some people wanted to skip all these mobs along the path. I can do this too but it is not recommended since people used to spend more time due to fail skipping attempts.
You should kill 9 more silver mobs then you can slip through freely without aggroing any mobs along the way until you meet spiders.
The spiders can also be skipped by running through them. You just need to run to the far end until they lose their aggro. It can also be done without aggro by stealthing.
Boss 2
Some of you may already know there is a safe spot in this encounter. Otherwise, just dodge red circles.
Path to boss 3
Get some swim and kill some gorillas. Then you have to pass the ball to open the gates. Note that you catch the ball when it collides. So don't throw it to the ground.
A new waypoint is activated after 2 gates are opened. You should teleport to the waypoint and continue.
Giganticus Lupicus
It has 3 phases. P1: 100%-75% P2: 75%-50% P3: 50%-0%
Whenever it changes phase, it has a pale blue rez icon on him which grants him invulnerable.
Everyone should use a range weapon, stay at range and stack up. Target priority should be Grub > Swarm > Boss. It is very immportant to nuke down the grubs to prevent the boss to get damage stacks.
This phase is the hardest phase. It has 3 abilities which require you to avoid. You should stay at range and keep moving in this phase.
First ability is shadowstep with ~1 second animation. It is easy to dodge/run out of it if you have swiftness/skill. It always uses it on a particular member until he/she dies. It is important to know because you can manage rescuing other downed members.
Second ability is AoE with red circles on the ground. You should dodge/run out of it. Please keep in mind they are projectiles and they do damage before they hit the ground sometimes.
Third ability is single-targeted shadow bolts. It seems not to be avoidable and predictable. From my experience, sometimes I ran around and it did not hit me while sometimes did. Therefore, you should keep your HP more than 10k so that you wont be killed by one single hit. Besides, you are most likely to be going to die with hit by this ability twice in a row if you have lost more than 2 members.
Endurance gain skills, teleport skills, damage evade skills, vigor boon, aegis boon, health regen food, endurance gain food and potions are highly recommended in this fight.
Everything is the same except you need to lure him back to the waypoint. I do not recommend this in general unless you are in a pug group. You should have at least one person in its aggro range and sight so that it won't get reset. Thanks to the latest patch, it won't go back to the arena when it reset.
It always chases a particular member (appears to be the most tough one). Apply cripple, chill or immobilized when it is moving can help the one who is being chased(cursed). Most of his abilities have a red circle on the ground and can easily be dodged. Rescuring downed members is also easy in this phase.

Path to final boss
All you need is one member to run through 3 groups of mobs and reach the chicken. After you reach the chicken, you should keep running, jump down a cliff, avold the champoin giants and keep running to the boss. A new waypoint will soon be activated so the rest of your party can teleport to the waypoint and proceed.
Final boss
At first, you have to capture the pillars (just like sPvP) and kite everything. If you get many mobs aggro on you, you should kite them in the center. You should not go to the boss's pillar as well. All you need is patience when someone don't really know what to do or not doing very well.
General mobs encounter
It can one-shot you when you are at range. You should get close and it should be the first piority target to nuke down.
It can perma stun a single target. Any interrupting skill or stability boon can help.
Sentinel, berserkers, etc. should be the least piority to be killed.
Boss 1
You may want to range this boss and dodge the red circles on the ground. Melee may get killed instantly when he throws the ball. It is a fairly easy boss.

Posted by: DeadlyStormZ.2370
Path to boss 2
One person get on the golem while others get the gun. The golem can generate a shield to protect all of you along the way. The gun is used to provide charges to the golem. There are guns along the way for you to pick up. Note that the shield buff can stack while the charge buff cannot. The gorillas can do damage to you regardless the shield so you have to dodge them.
The golem: You should keep pressing "1" and dodge the gorillas.
The rest: You should target the golem and charge it whenever it does not have the charge buff You should also dodge the gorillas with the golem.
Communication is important. It is important to demonstrate how the golem dodges and how the charge/shield works before you run.
There will be a waypoint and a crystal sucking all the mobs at the end of the path.
Kill 3 more mobs and prepare to skip through a bunch of mobs. You can take off your gear before the skipping.
All you need is to keep running until you run down a cliff. It is not easy to people don't know how to avoid Deadeye's one-shot skill. To avoid it, when you see red-circle animation on your feet, you dodge. The red-circle animation is as same as the warrior's "On my Mark!" shout.
Boss 2
There will be 3 inquests and a boss in this fight. The inquest will drop a gun when killed. The gun is used to deactivate the rage mode of the boss.
Path to boss 3
Nothing special.
Giganticus Lupicus
Same as every path.
Path to boss 4
Follow the torches in the swim. The mines are detonated after 1 sec you walk over it. If you have a memser/thief, the mobs can be skipped by stealthing. A new waypoint will be activated behind a group of 4 mobs after the minefield.
After activating the waypoint you should slip through the mobs.
Boss 4
When she teleports to the middle, you should hide behind the crates. You can also run very far away from her when all the crates are destryoed. You should also kills clones as fast as possible since they do tons of damage.
If you were dead, don't respawn because the entrance would be blocked once the fight started.
Path to final boss
Kill 6-7 groups mobs until you can slip through. It is also funny to see the grubs hate the inquests as much as we do.
Final boss
First, you need one high dps to activate the console and get a buff so that he/she can do insane damage the boss. This member should have no problem to take out at least 75% of the boss hp. Once the buff on him/her ends, a second member should activate the console and damage the boss. The rest of the group should deal with the incoming mobs. It should be arranged before the fight.
Once the boss hit 50%, everyone should damage the boss, dodging the red circles. Also the entrance would be blocked once the fight started.
Path to boss 1
Kill annoying oozes, turrets and spiders to clear some space for the boss fight.
Boss 1
It is melee unfriendly. You should keep at range and kite him. When it hit 20%, it will split into 2 champion oozes and drop a key. You should grab this key asap to Jotun and run back to the entrance so the oozes' aggro can be reset.
Path to boss 2
Annoying oozes and drakes.
Boss 2
You have to kill 9 mobs under sunlight and you will get a damage stack. The more stack you have, the more damage to you, the more damage you do. You should get out of sunlight if you can't take the damage anymore.
Path to boss 3
Nothing special. If there are mobs along the path, just skip them.
Boss 3
There are 4 water holes around the room. You need 1 member at each water holes to stand on it. Once 4 water holes is plugged, the boss will come out from the center.
You should apply burning condition to the boss all the time or you will suffer from endless stun. If your group have problem applying burning condition, you should use the whiskey.
Giganticus Lupicus
Same as every path.
Boss 4
This boss is skippable. Everyone will skip it unless you want to spend 20 more minutes in this life-consuming dungeon.
Path to final boss
You have to deal with 2 champion spiders and a bunch of silver spiders. Trapping skills are very useful here.
Final boss
Before the fight, everyone should find the reflecting crystals along the way. All you have to do is reflecting the boss damage.
You rarely see people LFG/M for path 4 because many of them cannot kill the final boss, Simir. I strongly recommend not to run this path unless you want the title.
Although Simir is killable, but with years of gaming experience and even I was used to be the guy who studied tactics for top-rated raid guilds in WoW, I believed Simir has serious mechanical design flaws.
I think that's the result of the lack of PTR, lack of QA testing and awareness from the designers.
Thanks for the long reading! Happy weekend.
