In the tradition of Tom Clancy, Clive Cussler, Vince Flynn, Brad Thor, and W.E.B. Griffin, R. E. McDermott delivers a thriller to rival the masters.
When marine engineer and very part-time spook Tom Dugan becomes collateral damage in the War on Terror, he's not about to take it lying down.
Falsely implicated in a hijacking, he's offered a chance to clear himself by helping the CIA snare their real prey, Dugan's best friend, London ship owner Alex Kairouz. Reluctantly, Dugan agrees to go undercover in Alex's company, despite doubts about his friend's guilt. Once undercover, Dugan's steadfast refusal to accept Alex's guilt puts him at odds not only with his CIA superiors, but also with a beautiful British agent with whom he's romantically involved.
When a tanker is found adrift near Singapore with a dead crew, and another explodes in Panama as Alex lies near death after a suspicious suicide attempt, Dugan is framed for the attacks. Out of options, and convinced the attacks are prelude to an even more devastating assault, Dugan eludes capture to follow his last lead to Russia, only to be shanghaied as an "advisor" to a Russian Spetsnaz unit on a suicide mission.
Deadly Straits is a nonstop thrill ride, from London streets, to the dry docks of Singapore, to the decks of the tankers that feed the world's thirst for oil, with stops along the way in Panama, Langley, Virginia, and Teheran. Richly spiced with detail from the author's 30 years sailing, building, and repairing ships worldwide, it is, in the words of one reviewer, "fast-paced, multilayered, and gripping."

"A must read Suspense Thriller!"
I have just completed "The Eye of the Tiger" and I consider "Deadly Straits" to be far more engaging.Deadly Straits is right at the top of our list of audiobooks. I am legally blind and audiobooks are necessary, therefore and needless to say, I have listened to quite a few. My wife enjoys soaking in the bathtub, listening to audiobooks and she, also, thoroughly enjoyed "Deadly Straits".
The plot is never bogged down and keeps moving. It also keeps one guessing and has surprising twists and turns. I was pleasantly surprised as I usually surmise what will happen long before it does happen.
One of my favorite parts was when they figured out who the true culprit was on the ship
For the first time since reading the first couple of novels of W.E.B. Griffin and Tom Clancy, I actually enjoyed every aspect of this book and waited for the next sentence. For me personally, it is the first time in over 10 years that my interest was keep totally captivated until the end of the novel.
I am a person who stays very busy on complex issues of crime, deception and skulduggery. I was not prepared for the final scene but I was thoroughly captivated and impressed by the final scene. It has been a long time coming that we find a writer capable of challenging the likes of Clancy or Griffin. I am impatiently waiting for Mr. McDermott's other books to become available on audiobooks. And, to all suspense/thriller novelists and enthusiasts - Beware! R.E. McDermott HAS arrived.
"Kept me clamped to my Audible iPhone app"
I received this audiobook from the author, R.E. McDermott, as I have begun participating in a GoodReads group - AudioBooks. I read/listen constantly, so a new book from an author new to me is truly a treat.
This book did not disappoint, not one bit. I've read/listen to the entire Patrick O'Brian series so I am familiar to a small degree with the intricacies of mystery-thrillers cast upon a sea. The technical exposition McDermott uses brings what might be mundane to some, alive and exciting to the reader/listener. I was enthralled. Having the time, I read the book almost non-stop. (Using the Audible.com iPhone app you can set a book to play for x minutes and stop. At 4 am, I simply had to stop resetting the timer and get some sleep.)
McDermott's characters are drawn richly. The plots are multiple and multi-layered. The author draws from current day geo-political themes much in the same way as a Clancy techno-military thriller does. Tom Dugan, the main protagonist, is compelling in his knowledge of shipping and ships; and how to use that knowledge as a weapon. Dugan's many antagonists are portrayed as heinous, uncaring beings, easy to despise.
I cannot wait to read the next in the series - Deadly Coast.
One caution, this is my first listen of Todd Haberkorn as Narrator. I was unfamiliar with his style and pacing. As the book progressed, I appreciated his initial low-key delivery, which became increasingly passionate as the plot developed. Don't be put off by his initial, under-played characterizations. He helps build tension adroitly as the plot develops and has a nice range of voices with which to paint McDermott's vivid characters.
"First novel? Amazing! Run to get it!"
Wow, what's not to love about Deadly Straits? Deadly Straits is a--suspense--gripping--non-stop--thriller that spans Singapore to Panama. It's about Tom Dugan, a hero falsely accused of hijacking that is forced to go undercover to find who the real culprit is, who happens to be his best friend. It's non-stop action that is reminiscent of Robert Ludlum's books.
I can't believe this is a first book! Again, McDermott's book is like the Ludlum series and a little bit like Clancy.
I'm fascinated by Panama, and Mcdermott's sections about all the boat action really made the vision come alive for me.
I received this audio book in exchange for an unbiased review via Audible.
"Good Writer - Needs Editor"
This is a wonderful story that really needs an editor. I read and listen to dozens of books a year and I had a hard time keeping track of the veritable army of characters performing in myriad scenarios. This work demonstrates, as nothing else I've read does, the job of the literary editor. With an editor and another couple of rewrites this could be a great book.
"goes on and on and on"
long and goes on and on and on. 100 differ es nt caricatures and on and on and on
"yuck! boring!"
I'm 1 hour into this book and is just not getting any better. The story just isn't interesting and the bad guys speech and behavior is so revolting I just can't listen anymore.
"What A Ride!!!"
Tie your shoes on tight and buckle up! What a Rollercoaster ride and it starts from the first chapter. I listened to this book and it was superbly read. The characters were well written and I cared about and what happened to each one even the low life's . The low life's were dealt with in a very satisfying way. Good story makes you wonder ...
Listening to good books from around the world, in the comfort of home....
"Get in, shut up, fasten seat belt, let's Go!"
Fast moving story after the foundation is set! You'll take a rocket ride to many places in the world, there are con games, liars, cheaters, true villains, vendictive cops, people that operate a few cards short, and a few ingenious wrinkles along the way. Oh, I forgot a lot of wholesale killing along the way.
The main character and his #1 friend are being set up for some major disasters, and treasury theft on an international level by none other than a terrorist group that wants the money and our heroes to take the fall!
Good story, moves right on along, diversity of characters"....and well worth the credit.
"Very good"
Typically, these types of books are hit or miss with me. This one is definitely a hit. It held my attention and had be rooting for Tom and Alex. The narrator did a good job with all of the characters he had to portray. I received this audiobook for free through Audiobook Boom for my unbiased review.
Norwegian in a English world!
"Ship O'Hoy? Yes please!"
I got this for free for a honest review, and that is what you get: A honest review.
(Read the start a bit ironic) So first off:I hate this book. There. What? A 5 star review for a book you hate? Yes, and i will tell you why. This book made me CHANGE my opinion on this kind of books. I don't like this kind of books, and R. E. McDermott made me CARE! So, NO i did not hate book. I LOVED it to the moon and back! R. E. McDermott is now in my topp 5 ALL TIME AUTHERS! Congrats! Todd Haberkorn reads this 10 hrs and 6 mins book perfect. SO thanks to him, congrats to him as well! I just love his voice. Now on to the next book!
"Good plot. Great listening"
Loved this and will start out listening to the sequel in a few short minutes.
"Great read/listen"
Time well spent. Really enjoyed this book and the other two in the series. Good characters, well researched locations and nicely guaged action. I'll be looking for more from Mr McDermott.

"ASHTOWN BURIALS No. 2: The Drowned Vault," by N.D. Wilson, Random House Children's Books, $16.99, 447 pages (f) (ages 9-12)
"The Drowned Vault" is the second book author N.D. Wilson's five-part series, Ashtown Burials, after "The Dragon's Tooth."
This action-packed novel is easy for any fantasy-fiction lover to get lost in.
Cyrus and Antigone Smith have got a lot of trouble on their hands since they lost the Dragon's Tooth to the evil Dr. Phoenix. Because the tooth is the only thing that can kill a transmortal, Dr. Phoneix, now that he has possession of the tooth, is seeking out transmortals and killing them one by one.
Not only are there evil men for the brother and sister team to deal with, but those who are supposed to be on their side are angry with them for the deaths of their friends. It's a real predicament when both the bad guys and the alleged good guys don't care if you live.
With few friends on their side, Cyrus and Antigone are on the run, searching for Dr. Phoenix with hopes of regaining possession of the tooth. But of course, life and death tasks are never easy. The Smith siblings run into more hardships and discover greater evils.
Wilson introduces new and interesting characters and resolves questions about the Smiths' background that were left hanging from the first book.
Although the book is written for a young adult audience, readers of all ages can enjoy this book for its clever writing.
Fantasy-fiction lovers looking for magical worlds can immerse themselves in characters that who become friends, bad guys who can be loved because they are hated and the possibilities of imagination. Thank goodness there are authors like N.D. Wilson.
Readers should be sure to read the first book before starting "The Drowned Vault," as there is little review of "The Dragon's Tooth" to guide them along.

"RE: D300 Custom Settings Spreadsheet v. 1.3"
Hello Don.I have really tried to get this, as I feel it would be an immense aid to me. Before I continue, allow me to thank you for what you have offered to the members here.I downloaded the ZIP file, and come up with an 'XLS' file. Clicking on that brings up a window which makes mention of there not being an appropriate program by which to open it with (or something to that effect). I was given the choice of searching the Web, or choosing from a list of programs on my PC. All that I have tried has failed me, and (as I am really not that computer savvy) I wondered if you (or anyone) might take a few baby steps with me, regarding this.Blessings,Nathan

"Waving the bloody shirt" – get ready to hear that phrase a lot as a deannexation bill continues to be debated in Nashville – the one that the state House approved Monday evening.There was a palpable frustration at City Hall during Tuesday's council day that featured a light agenda but lots of attention to several challenges – many of them financial and hidden until recently – that the new mayor and council are facing.As we mentioned in our Monday evening coverage of this, the skirmish lines over the deannexation bill and the larger issue are very close in Shelby County. Our legislative delegation is split between Memphis Democrats vocal in their outrage over the bill and Republicans in the county outside Memphis who are just as vehement in their support of the bill, especially the parts that apply to Memphis.

It sounds strange to refer to this as a holiday weekend – the anniversary of the birth of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.Holidays suggest something different than the rededication to purpose so many of us stress as our definition of this day honoring the memory of a leader whose life made it difficult to imagine what our society would be like without his presence.That we feel compelled to express the meaning of the day through actions and a recommitment to principles buffeted by reality reflects a hope that we wish to retain as first-hand memories of King's life fade and his legacy endures.
NEW YORK (AP) – The NBA has fined Memphis Grizzlies forward Matt Barnes $35,000 for making "inappropriate public comments" condoning violence.

No current Talk conversations about this book.
By the end of the book, I enjoyed the story. However, I did not enjoy the writing style. The sentence fragments and fragmented story were just a bit too much. In some scenes, there was TOO much detail and information and other scenes seemed to lack anything other than the basic information, when I, as a reader, would have liked a little more.
This novel is a piece of crap with no redeeming qualities. Don't waste your time.
What sets Roy's wring apart from others is her creative use of language. Imagine the farting of mud as steps are taken. She was you in the story telling hat happened before and hat happens after, but it is is not till the end that she tells you what happened. Telling the story through the inexperience of twins also helps convey the story of innocent people caught in actions of which they have no control. I was glad I had visited Cochin before reading this, it gave me a better idea of the lushness of the natural beauty.
The literary equivalent of taking drugs. A strange cartoon-like and anthropomorphised world in which time is mashed up and things are often very funny. I couldn't finish it. Perhaps my mood or perhaps the lack of narrative drive is to blame, but I was left thinking that there are better things to be doing with my time, like reading Career of Evil. I just had no urge to read on, but don't let that put you off. I'll probably come back to it at some point.
If Ms. Roy is sometimes overzealous in foreshadowing her characters' fate, resorting on occasion to darkly portentous clues, she proves remarkably adept at infusing her story with the inexorable momentum of tragedy. She writes near the beginning of the novel that in India, personal despair ''could never be desperate enough,'' that ''it was never important enough'' because ''worse things had happened'' and ''kept happening.'' Yet as rendered in this remarkable novel, the ''relative smallness'' of her characters' misfortunes remains both heartbreaking and indelible.

Amazon.com Amazon.com Review (ISBN 0060977493, Paperback)In her first novel, award-winning Indian screenwriter Arundhati Roy conjures a whoosh of wordplay that rises from the pages like a brilliant jazz improvisation. The God of Small Things is nominally the story of young twins Rahel and Estha and the rest of their family, but the book feels like a million stories spinning out indefinitely; it is the product of a genius child-mind that takes everything in and transforms it in an alchemy of poetry. The God of Small Things is at once exotic and familiar to the Western reader, written in an English that's completely new and invigorated by the Asian Indian influences of culture and language.
(retrieved from Amazon Thu, 12 Mar 2015 18:23:37 -0400)
The story of an Indian family during the 1969 Communist disturbances in Kerala province. It is told through the eyes of a boy and his sister who are the children of a rich rubber planter. Politics, family drama, illicit love. A debut in fiction.

Most Helpful Customer Reviews on Amazon.com (beta)
"Pluto: Urasawa x Tezuka, Volume 007" by Naoki Urasawa and Takashi Nagasaki is the seventh book in an eight-book science fiction manga series Pluto. The whole series is based on "The Greatest Robot on Earth," the most popular story arc in Astro Boy series written by a legendary manga master Osamu Tezuka.
Epsilon, a pacifist robot powered by photon energy, is the last one of the seven great robots of the world. Although Epsilon is extremely powerful, he refuses to fight. However, when his children, a group of war orphans, are in danger, Epsilon has no choice but to face the murderous villain, who, in fact, might not even be the main danger.
1) Continuously good.
"Pluto, Volume 007," just like the previous volumes, is action-packed, suspenseful, thrilling, thought-provoking and touching. However, this book feels like a slight step-down from the sixth volume, which is so far my favorite in the whole series.
1) Early wrap-up.
Although still good, the seventh volume is slower-paced and feels like a prolonged wrap-up rather than an adventure by itself. Also, there are so many revelations that some of them seem a little bit rushed and too convenient. Finally, the ending of "Pluto, Volume 007" is kind of depressing, but there is still one more volume to fix that.
2) Protagonist.
This volume centers around Epsilon, who, unfortunately, is not my favorite character. I love the idea of loving pacifist robot, but there is something about Epsilon that just doesn't sit well with me. Maybe it is the fact that he is just too perfect, unnaturally heroic, annoyingly passive, rather boring and thus hard to relate to. Or maybe it is the fact that until the seventh volume I barely knew anything about this robot, and now suddenly he is the center of attention. Finally, it might also be the fact that up until this volume I thought that Epsilon is a female as he clearly looks and acts like one. In any case, I didn't care enough about Epsilon, and it made the story less captivating.
3) Lack of color.
Urasawa's artwork is very realistic, detailed and breathtakingly beautiful, but, except for the ten first pages, the illustrations are black and white.
VERDICT: 3.5 out of 5
Although still action-packed, suspenseful, thrilling, thought-provoking and touching, "Pluto: Urasawa x Tezuka, Volume 006" by Naoki Urasawa and Takashi Nagasaki is slower-paced than the previous volume and is centered around Epsilon, who, unfortunately, is not my favorite character.

My daughter gets frequent nosebleeds. Any idea what's causing this or how to make them stop for good?
– Val
A nosebleed once in a while is common, and can happen in kids for many reasons (including having a dry nose or nosepicking).
To help prevent nosebleeds:
However, if your daughter has frequent, heavy, or hard-to-stop nosebleeds, call your doctor. Having a lot of nosebleeds sometimes can be a sign of a problem, such as a bleeding disorder. Even if your child only has occasional nosebleeds but also bruises easily or bleeds easily from other areas, like the gums, let the doctor know.

Here are the pregame quotes from the UConn Huskies women's basketball team at the 2013 NCAA Women's Basketball Final Four in New Orleans, LA on Saturday. Quotes courtesy of ASAP Sports Transcripts: THE MODERATOR: Joining us now from Connecticut, head coach Geno Auriemma, student‑athletes Kaleena Mosqueda‑Lewis and Kelly Faris. We'll start with questions for the student‑athletes. COACH AURIEMMA: Proper pronunciation is Mosqueda. No, no, you got it right. I'm glad you did. I don't know what that means in Mexican‑‑ that's Mexican for something, but I'm not sure what it is. THE MODERATOR: Spanish. We have a question right here in the front row (laughter). Q. Kelly, you and Skylar have been playing together summer All‑Star teams and U.S.A. Basketball. Could you describe the rivalry and maybe the mutual respect you two earned over all these years? KELLY FARIS: Yeah, I don't think I'm the only one. I think quite a few have played with a different people along the way that we come across. And it makes it more fun. You always love playing people you know or grew up playing against and you know their type of personality and how they are on the court. And she's a very competitive, smart player. So it just makes it that much more fun to play. Q. This is for both the players. Coach during the middle of the season seemed to indicate that this was not one of UConn's standards, one of the best teams. Did that motivate you all in any way and did you think there was a grain of truth in it? KELLY FARIS: I think he tries to get something out of us every single day. With everything he says, he's constantly trying to get a response from us. So when he makes comments like that, of course it's going to get under our skin a little bit and make us want to prove him wrong. He's somebody that you want to be on his side, and you want to gain his trust and his respect. So that's definitely something that we take to heart. But at the same time you have to be careful not to let it get too much into your head. Use it for what it's worth and for the positive. KALEENA MOSQUEDA‑LEWIS: Yeah, I agree with Kelly. We've been working toward that all season, and I think we're finally starting to get the hang of it and getting confident in ourselves and playing well. Q. Kelly and Kaleena, why do you expect tomorrow night to be different from the three previous games we've seen you two play? KELLY FARIS: I think we've said it multiple times. I think coach says it a lot. It's not about the Xs and Os between us. We know each other like it's the back of our hand. We've played them so many times throughout the year. And this is it. This is one and done. And the stakes are high. So we just have to learn from our past mistakes. And the games we've played against them we've lost by‑‑ I don't know what the total point was, but it's not very many. And we've had our opportunities and we just didn't finish it off. We know we're right there. And, like Kaleena said, we've been working really hard to prepare for this game and building our confidence. I think we're in a much better place than we were before. KALEENA MOSQUEDA‑LEWIS: Like Kelly said, the little things is what seem to kill us in those games, in those big games and finishing them off. There's spurts in the games before where we played great and we did everything we were supposed to do. But when it came down to the wire, it just didn't end the way we wanted it to. We've been working on making sure that didn't happen. We've putting ourselves in positions like that in practice and being successful. And if it comes down to that tomorrow, then we'll be ready. Q. Kelly, this is for you. As a senior, you come to UConn to win championships, and you took one when you were a freshman. So much has been made about Notre Dame losing in the last two years. What about the frustration for you and your other seniors of not having any championships since then and knowing now this is your last shot? KELLY FARIS: Obviously the past two years haven't ended the way we would have liked. And I think the hardest part was to send the seniors out on that type of note. So we know how it feels. And, like you said, this is it for us. And we don't have another opportunity for the seniors to get it. And this is our last chance. So we're going to leave everything out on the court and make the most of it. Q. Kaleena, you went through this last year. Could you talk about how tough it is for freshmen to go through that first year but also to develop the way Breanna and Moriah are developing and to peak at the right time? KALEENA MOSQUEDA‑LEWIS: Yeah, it's definitely something that is a hard process going through your freshman year, especially jumping from high school to college basketball. It's just completely different. The game's faster. It's more aggressive. But I think now they're definitely peaking when we need them to. They're playing great and their confidence level is high. And regardless of what's happened during the season, they've gotten better and they've risen to the occasion at this point. This is when they need them most. The fact they're playing great right now is awesome for our team. Q. Kaleena, being the fourth time you played Notre Dame, this week, leading up to it, practice, film work, things like that, do you find that you're sharp and intense and focused on them because you know them so well, or is it a little bit‑‑ I don't want to say maybe boredom set in about it? KALEENA MOSQUEDA‑LEWIS: No, not boredom at all. Definitely still watching them as intently as I did the first time, especially now it's a little easier to watch film and know what I'm looking for having played them so many times. And just trying to make sure that, if anything, the mindset's right before we go into the game tomorrow. THE MODERATOR: Thank you, ladies. To see what Geno Auriemma had to say, please click on the continue reading button below if you're on the home page. We'll start with questions for Coach Auriemma. Q. Kelly was referring to the fact that you say things that inspires the players, either directly or to a third party that they hear and read and gets them going. Muffet said today that she had read or heard something you said before the Big East Tournament about Skylar and used that to motivate the team to‑‑ in the Big East championship game. You always say what's on your mind. Are you ever worried that opponents might use it to their advantage? COACH AURIEMMA: I wish I was smart enough to do that because I don't remember what it was that I said that inspired Skylar. But I'm glad I helped. I'll always do whatever I can to motivate players. So whether they're on my team or the other team, I just want to be known as a great motivator. I'm glad I'm still working on it. But I don't know what she's talking about. I don't remember what I said. I wish I did. Q. Could you talk a little bit about Jefferson and Stewart are different players now and how do you get freshmen to develop so they can thrive in the tournament? COACH AURIEMMA: I don't know what the exact answer is to that question. A lot of times the process has a lot to do with what each individual is made up of. I didn't do anything with Kaleena last year from October to the Final Four last year. I didn't do anything different. And this year, whether it's Moriah or Breanna Stewart or Morgan Tuck, my approach wasn't any different. But their personalities are much different than Kaleena's. So a lot of times it's how much are they able to handle and retain, what are they able to let go off, how long can they keep their confidence. Those are things that freshmen struggle with. And I think as coaches, you know, you try to evaluate that and you say, okay, how much leeway can I give this particular freshman and how much do I have to hold them back a little bit because they're not quite ready for it yet. And this year was a real struggle with all three of our freshmen, because so much was expected of them to have to perform at a real high level. And maybe they felt some of that throughout the season. And that doesn't exist anymore. And I don't know if it's what I did as much as what they've done. Q. Along those lines, do you feel the start that Stewart had to be here and her pedigree coming in maybe exacerbated what was a normal process for freshmen to go through, that sort of the physicality picks up in December and the conference play, the usual things happen? Do you think there was more made of that than the normal freshman process for them to go through? COACH AURIEMMA: There's nothing normal playing at Connecticut. So for Breanna, everything she did that was really good‑‑ her first six or seven games, everything she did was good. She was the greatest player to ever come to Connecticut. Then everything she did that was bad, well, she's not as good as everyone said she was. So when you're that highly skilled and highly talented and you come to Connecticut, you're going to get to experience a little bit of everything. And how you handle that in the end is going to determine how good a player you are. And certainly in five months Breanna Stewart has gone through everything you can imagine. Being called better than Maya Moore and being looked at as you'll never be a great player until junior year. So takes a pretty strong type of person to play basketball at Connecticut. Q. (Off microphone) and for what it produces this year it seems like there's a collective entity here, it kind of shifts and moves. How is that different for the program to have that than in the past where there's not an identifiable personality around for which everything might move? COACH AURIEMMA: Yeah, we weren't fortunate enough to have any of the three to see that ESPN talks about all the time. So we had to do it as a group rather than rely on one person. But that's always been the case at Connecticut. We don't build our program around one person, no matter who that is. We don't aspire to be that, when we have players like Tina and Maya and Renee and Diana and Sue and Sveta and Shea, and I could go on and on. It was always in the context of we'll let them decide, each player, how big their role is going to be. And because of their personalities and how big their personalities were, they just became superstars. And we don't have anybody with that personality this year. We just don't. Kaleena Lewis has the kind of basketball game, the kind of skill level that if she had a different type of personality she would be like Maya or like Diana in terms of how she would act, but she doesn't have that yet. Maybe she'll get it next year. But, you know, you just have to kind of take advantage of what you have. And this year's been frustrating and rewarding, because it's been collectively. And collectively when we're good, we're really, really good. And the four losses that we had this year can be in some ways directly attributed to that one person in the past who in the last two minutes decides the game. And it's taken us a long time to figure out who that is. Q. Kelly sort of alluded to this, but in terms of late‑game execution, are there things that you can do in practice to get your team better for late‑game execution against an opponent like Notre Dame where ultimately that's really been the difference? COACH AURIEMMA: Yeah, yeah, I was talking to somebody else the other day and when we were up 5 in overtime and still unfortunately missed those free throws, we went back to practice and I put the time on the clock and made a triple overtime and still we made 15 in a row. So next year I'm going to practice really hard on our guys making free throws in late‑game situations because that's all about coaching, you know. And I said this 100 times. If Stewy makes those free throws, I'm a great coach; if Stewy misses them, then I'm an ass. So many of those things basically come down to something as simple as every one of our games, one possession or one play ends up being a difference, like you said. And it may be the exact same outcome Sunday night. I have no idea. I have no idea. I love the play they ran, though, at the end of regulation at their place, when we're up 3, and they would double team Skylar and she throws it to Kayla McBride who dribbles to the 3‑point line and ties the game. I don't know why I can't think of that. One of these days I'll have that play. Just give it to the guy, let 'em dribble to the 3‑point line and shoot it. Q. Geno, Kaleena and Stefanie were named to the WBCA team today. Your thoughts on that honor and being rewarded for the work they put in? COACH AURIEMMA: You know, I think every kid goes to college, whether it's Notre Dame or Connecticut or Louisville or Cal, with goals: I want to win national championships, I want to be an All‑American, I want all these things. But unfortunately it doesn't happen for everybody. And when it does happen, you're thrilled because you know how hard they have to work to make that happen, that it was a goal of theirs from the time they were in high school and that they're fortunate enough to play on the kind of team that allows for them to play like All‑Americans. And both Stefanie and Kaleena deserve to be on that All‑American team this year. Just like Bria deserved to be on it last year. And the other eight players that were named on that team, the same with them. I don't think there's anybody on that ten‑member team that you would say, you know, somebody else should have made it than them. I thought it was the absolute perfect ten. They did a great job. Q. Can you talk a little bit about the job Muffet did this season and just what attributes have enabled her to be successful in the profession? COACH AURIEMMA: Well, everyone assumed that because you graduate three starters like they did that your team is going to really suffer the following year. And in the normal situation, they might have. But when you've got a guard like Skylar Diggins who can miss eight shots in a row and then when it's time to make the next four she makes the next four. And I think people maybe underestimated just how much of an impact someone like that can have on your team. I know it's the same thing when we lost our four starters and Diana was the only starter coming back and everybody said now we'll get them. You don't underestimate just how good a great guard can do. The other thing that I've seen happen is I think Muffet's really good at taking advantage of what her players are really good at. She puts them in situations where they can be successful. They're not running an offense that doesn't fit their players. They're not playing a defense that doesn't suit their style of play. She's really smart. She keeps her composure on the sidelines. They're as prepared if not better prepared than any team we play all long year. And it's been like that for a long, long time. And that's what allows you to be in a position where you are now. Muffet's doing the same thing this year that she's been doing the last 20 years, but when you have the kind of guard that she has right now, all that stuff that you've been doing for 20 years now you go to three straight Final Fours because you now have the absolute perfect person to run the stuff that you run and lead the team that you put together. So it's not like she just all of a sudden stumbled on being a great coach. Q. Two questions. First of all, have you done anything special this week to either challenge or, your players being so familiar with the other team, change up your game plan? And, secondly, how much thought have you given to scheduling on down the line when so much of your conference goes away, and might even‑‑ two years from now might even want to play‑‑ consider playing an independent schedule like Louisiana Tech did 20, 25 years ago? COACH AURIEMMA: This week we didn't do anything other than try to get ready for hopefully two games. Our practices were mostly about what we need to be really good at Sunday night and what changes we want to make for Sunday night, based on the other four games that we play or three games that we played against Notre Dame this year. In terms of the future, I don't know what the future holds. I don't think anybody else does either. The conference that we're going into is for us a great opportunity. And the thought of us being out there and independent, women's basketball program, that's never entered my mind. That's not something I would want to do. I don't think in today's day and age you can function like that. I think being in a conference is ultimately the best thing for our program, and I don't see that changing. Q. Geno, is there a difference between the way your team will approach experience‑‑ prepare for this experience than Cal? You guys six times in a row and they've never been here. What is the spectrum of that experience when you come in with a difference like that? COACH AURIEMMA: I was just saying this to Chris Dailey today, that I looked around and I said: I can't believe this is 14 Final Fours for us. Because I remember in 1991, our first. And it was here in New Orleans at Lakefront Arena and 8,000 people at the game. And I remember how we acted relative to how we act now. And we showed up and it was different than any other game preparation, different from anything else we had done. And then at halftime we're down 10 and we're in the locker room and we're like, damn, the pain started already. And it's halftime. I'm sure there's so much going on with Cal's kids right now that by the time the game comes around, because of the hoopla that exists here now, it's way more than it was in 1991, it will be‑‑ that will be the only thing that's normal is when the actual game begins. Because everything else leading up to that is something that they've never imagined or ever experienced. But when the ball goes up Sunday, that will be the only thing that's familiar to them. And that's probably the way it should be. You should have as much fun as you can and when the game starts go back to what you've always done, play basketball. But I hope the experience that we're trying to provide for our players is not that much different. We're not locked up in a hotel room watching film 24 hours a day. And we're not practicing three hours a day in different spots. And we're enjoying where we are. And we're enjoying what we're doing. And we'll be ready to play Sunday night, just like the other three teams will be. Q. Coach, to sort of follow up on that, do these things ever become routine because you've done so many of them, or do you still get the buzz out of it? I know it can't quite be like Cal doing it for the first time. But can you still get that enjoyment out of it, emotionally that this is still a big deal to make a Final Four? COACH AURIEMMA: Yeah. Leading up to this is getting harder and harder for me every year, not‑‑ being at the Final Four is still fun. It's still great. It's easy. When you're here, you know your team deserves to be here. You know you're going to play well. You know you're playing a great team. For me, it's gotten harder and harder to enjoy the process leading up to this. And Lindsay doesn't know it yet, but 10 years from now she's going to look back on this year and go, man, that's when it all turned for me. I used to love this game (laughter). Q. Geno, where would you put your interest in playing Notre Dame, obviously not next year, but the year after that and in the future? Is that something that you and Muffet and both schools would work to have just because of its importance as an overall rivalry for the game? A.Yeah, if you look at our schedule now, this year, I think as the preseason top 10 teams, I think we played‑‑ I want to say all of them at one point or another. And that's kind of been our philosophy during the regular season for a long time now. So once we get this conference thing squared away and once we get our scheduling in order, I would venture to say that there's going to be a lot of interest in playing that game. I'm sure on our part and their part. I would think. THE MODERATOR: Thank you, Coach. Here are the quotes from UConn's opponent, the Notre Dame Fighting Irish. Follow Ian on Twitter @soxanddawgs.

Hi everyone. I'm new to the particular board. There are so many heart defects that people seem to be dealing with. I'm ultimately looking for support regarding Aortic Stenosis. DS was diagnosed with it the day after he was born (dob 9/15/10) after he went into heart failur. He had the cathertization balloon procedure performed and has been doing well ever since. We had an echo done last week which showed continued thickening of the valve leaflets as well as the ventricle. They took him off captopril and has left him just on dixogin. They're saying that we may need to do the catheritization again within the next 6 months or so.
Any support would be greatly appreciated.

A Question and More Info
Do you know the name of the prosecutor who adopted her? According to the 1900 census, which can be found at http://search.labs.familysearch.org/recordsearch/start.html#p=home, Nellie Meeks, born Sep 1887, was living with John and Mary C. Page. They were in Union Township, Sullivan County. John was a farmer. At first I figured these were her maternal grandparents, since she is given as their granddaughter, but perhaps these could be the people who adopted her.
According to the Ancestry.com database "Missouri Marriage Records, 1805-2002", Nellie married Albert Spray 6 Jan 1904 in Milan, Sullivan county. His father and her guardians are listed as being present.
According to this same database, Hattie Spray married Wayne Jones 24 Nov 1919, also in Milan. On the 1910 census, Hattie, age 5, was living with her paternal grandparents. Her father, who is listed as widowed, was living with one of his brothers. They were all in Sullivan County.

No surprise to me about Damarcus. I watched him play in high school and sat by
him in church. He is not only going to be a great basketball player for BYU but
is a fine young man. Look for big things from him both on and off the floor.

Fetchin' about time. This was the best coaching move by Rose in the past two months. Sitting Carlino and playing Harrison most of the second half was a major factor in BYU winning this game.

Loved how Harrison played, but much of the credit for this win also goes to
Cusick, who wasn't rattled at all by the pressure the way Carlino was.
Let's see on Thursday whether Coach Rose has learned anything.

I loved Harrison's play coming off the bench! But I agree with others that Cusick is the unsung hero of the game. He didn't score a bucket, but his ability to control to ball and get it to those who can score was critical to the comeback.

Not playing Harrison more this season is the only criticism I have of Dave Rose's coaching this season. Abuou and Zylstra have been erratic and unreliable all season long and Harrison should have been coming off the bench regularly to replace one of them in the many games where they were not producing. Zylstra in particular has been a liability on both ends of the court, while Abuou at least contributed on defense and on the boards. Rose should have been giving Harrison some of those minutes if for no other reason then to let him develop and grow. I have heard rumors that Harrison has been very unhappy and is considering a transfer and if that happens I will consider a big mark against Dave Rose as a head coach. Harrison has tremendous potential as we saw last night and Rose should be taking every opportunity he can get to develop him. Here is hoping that Harrison returns next year and gets the lion share of Abuou's minutes (unless he decided to serve a mission).

I agree that Cusick should get plenty of minutes on Thursday but I dont think Carlino should lose the start. That would only do more damage to his confidence and Carlino is the future of the program at the point. We have to remember that he is a freshman and this was his first time playing in the big dance. We also have to remember that Jimmer struggled against pressure defense as a freshman and sophomore. I am not saying Carlino will be like Jimmer but I do think he will get much better with experience. That being said, Cusick was the difference in being able to mount a comeback against Iona. He was able to break the press and get the ball down the court so they could get the ball in to Davies and Hartsock. Without Cusick Davies and Hartsock would not have been able to score as many baskets. Cusick should get plenty of playing time on Thursday regardless of whether or not he starts.

Representblue: I agree that Carlino is the future and that he needs to continue to get plenty of minutes, but like Zystra and Abouo he's been very erratic in his play. In the biggest games, he has not handled the ball well and made some very poor decisions -- easily attributable to being a freshman. But in the big dance, the cougs can't afford those mistakes. With 8 assists and only 1 turnover, Cusick earned some playing time too
