Session 17 - Data Archives & Tools.
Display session, Wednesday, January 07
Exhibit Hall,
The Astrophysics Data Facility (ADF), in association with the National Space Science Data Center (NSSDC) archives and distributes UV and Optical Astronomical datasets of interest to NASA-supported researchers. These include: IUE [IUESIPS and Final Archive]; public HUT, UIT and WUPPE data from the Astro missions; ORFEUS-SPAS EUVS; OGLE; and Copernicus data. We have developed several new user interfaces to access this data which feature: Science based queries; Quick-look Browsers; Archival data selection and ordering tools; and data delivery tools. Our main user interface is the Web Interface for Searching Archival Research Data (WISARD), which is a multi-wavelength (X-ray, UltraViolet, Optical and Infrared), multi-mission interface to various astrophysics data archives. WISARD can search for and retrieve data located at different archive sites in a single session. WISARD uses the SIMBAD, NED, and ADS archives for astronomical object and bibliographic information (in addition to the SIMBAD and NED name-to-coordinate conversion service). WISARD also uses the STSCI DADS, HEASARC, EUVE Public Archive and NDADS archives for science data access. WISARD supports both on-line (IUE, WUPPE and UIT) and external data browsers (HST/GHRS). In addition, selected on-line browsers (IUE, HUT, WUPPE, and UIT) are available through interfaces separate from WISARD and browse data for IUE and HUT can be down-loaded directly from their respective browsers. Please refer to the following URL's for further information:

Saving Photos from iMessage to Mac?
Just curious as to how you all do this--there seem to be a few ways to do it, but so far none of them seem as easy to me as saving photos on my iPhone does. The best I've come up with so far is copy/paste, but there must be a better way to do it, right?

Saving Photos from iMessage to Mac?
Ok I sent myself a photo via iMessages and here is what I get in the Messages app on my Mac (Mountain Lion):
1. If I double click on the photo it opens in Quick Look and from there I can choose to open it in Preview.
2. If I right click without selecting the photo I get options for Quick Look, Open, or Copy.
3. If I select the photo and then right click, I get options to Forward, Copy, or Delete.

Re: Saving Photos from iMessage to Mac?
Yep, that's all I saw too...just surprises me that there isn't a Save option�if you want to keep a photo elsewhere it seems like more steps than it needs to be. Not a huge deal, but surprisingly un-Apple like.
(I did read that if you have iPhoto open you can drag and drop photos from Messages to iPhoto, but haven't tried it as I rarely leave iPhoto open.)

At least for now.
Wilson, a three-time All-Star, is one of only a few proven closers still without a team this spring. And, according to CBS Sports, he's likely to remain unemployed come Opening Day.
Wilson is still receiving rehab treatments from a second Tommy John ligament transfer surgery and will reportedly refrain from auditioning for teams until he is back to 100 percent.
And, as of Wednesday, it appears he's still a handful of weeks away from reaching his full health. As a result, it could be several weeks into the season before Wilson is prepared to sign with a team.
Wilson, who is said to be at about 80 to 85 percent, is throwing bullpen sessions, a source told CBS Sports.
It's unclear which teams are -- or would be -- interested in the 30-year-old righty, but San Fransisco manager Bruce Bochy told ESPN his team hasn't closed the door on bringing him back.
The New York Mets could also consider the former Giants closer, but their interest has reportedly cooled following Wilson's lukewarm audition for the team in January.
He reportedly threw only 20 pitches with low velocity when he auditioned for the Mets in January -- less than eight months after undergoing surgery. It typically takes at least 12 months before a pitcher regains full strength following a ligament transfer surgery.
Tigers general manager Dave Dombrowski all but ruled out the club signing Wilson in late January when he said the club wasn't in the position to offer him an opportunity to close.
At the time, Dombrowski reiterated his intention of letting Bruce Rondon compete for the vacant closer role this spring. But, the club has seemingly altered its course following Rondon's early spring struggles, and has reportedly intensified its search for a reliever.

FWay grads exit on high and sad notes
By ELIZABETH CIEPIELA
Staff writer
Holding white and blue carnations, Federal Way High School seniors walked up red-carpeted aisles to their seats to the march of Pomp and Circumstance.
Men wore dark blue caps and gowns, women white. Several of the graduates paused for family and friends to snap photos during the slow-moving procession.
Some of the 450 graduates wore gold or silver cords representing high honors, some wore honors medallions, and many others wore leis and sunglasses for last Saturdays class of 2003 commencement at the Tacoma Dome.
The senior class officers presented a tribute to parents. They also talked about the role teachers, family and friends played in their lives. One girl compared teachers to nurturing angels, and another girl talked about the importance of friendship. Someone once said that your best friend is a sister or brother God forgot to give you, she said.
The first of several speakers was Leigh Johnson, mother of Luke Johnson, the Federal Way High student and standout golfer who was killed in a car accident last summer. She talked about her son and offered this advice to the graduates: Live well. Laugh often. And love much.
She told them they are embarking on a new chapter in life. Find hope, forgiveness, peace and love in your heart, and you will live well, Johnson said.
Lee Ann Womacks song about hope for the future followed. Graduating senior Sarah Lencer sang:
I hope you never lose that sense of wonder
You get your fill to eat but always keep that hunger
May you never take one single breath for granted
God forbid love ever leave you empty-handed
When you get the choice to sit it out or dance,
I hope you dance...
I hope you dance...
English teacher Becky Phipps spoke next, advising the graduates, Theres a reason why you listen to your elders. Its because there are life challenges and lessons that require experience. No one leads a charmed life. There will be disappointments.
She said there will also be injustices and sorrows.
Trust your inner self. You need not fear any of lifes challenges. Fearlessly walk through the portals in life and dont look back. Live for today, but consider tomorrow, Phipps said.
The next speaker was graduate Ian Murray. Take pride in all you
do, but dont be prideful, he said. Popularity ends on graduation day, but
respect will last forever.
Then came the moment the graduating seniors had been waiting for the roll call of graduates and presentation of diplomas. Students hugged, shook hands and blew kisses after they received their diplomas. One student jumped off the stage, his gown unzipped and revealing a Superman outfit underneath.
David Celski, the Superman graduate, said after the ceremony that he had always been known as an outrageous character, and that he wanted to go out with a bang. A friend of Luke Johnson, Celski said Luke taught him to love everybody no matter who they are.
Celski plans to attend Washington State University and join the Army ROTC program. He wants to become an officer in the Army.
Many graduates decorated their caps with messages in glitter. Greg Strongs cap read, 4 Luke. Strong said Johnson was one of his best friends and was like a brother to him. He dedicated his diploma to Luke. He just meant the world to all of us, said Strong, who plans to study law at the University of Washington.
Kirsten Dehnert, an honors student, said she was happy its finally over. Ive been waiting for it (graduation) for a long time. Dehnert will attend Lafayette College in Pennsylvania and study bio-medical engineering. She said she plans to become a trauma or orthopedic surgeon.
I have a lot of confidence that shell be very successful, her mother, Gail, said. I am very proud to have a daughter who was basically very self-directed and self-motivated.

The superintendent of Keansburg schools, one of the so-called "Abbott" districts that receives millions of dollars in special state aid, is to receive a severance package worth almost $750,000 when she steps down next month, documents posted on the school district's website show.
The payments to Superintendent Barbara Trzeszkowski, 60, come on top of the standard retirement pay of about $120,000 a year she has earned over a 38-year career in the northern Monmouth County district.
The severance deal includes $184,586 for 235.5 unused sick days and 20 vacation days, and another $556,290 bonus that is equal to her monthly salary multiplied by the number of years she has worked in Keansburg.
"This is the poster child of everything that is bad about Abbott funding," said Assemblyman Joseph Malone (R-Burlington) a critic of the state Supreme Court rulings in the Abbott v. Burke lawsuit, which require the state to send more than $4.3 billion in aid to the state's 31 poorest districts each year. "No one deserves that kind of buyout. It's obscene. It's sickening."
It may also be short-lived.
State Education Commissioner Lucille Davy plans to review the severance deal to see if it is valid, said spokeswoman Kathryn Forsyth.
"There is concern," Forsyth said. "We are obtaining a copy of the setlement in question to review it to see what, if anything, can be done."
Trzeszkowski did not return a call seeking comment today.

Monday night, "DWTS" judge Bruno Tonioli, not known for his passive, zipper-lipped nature, tore into Michael Bolton's performance of the jive. Now, let's be clear -- Bolton's version of the jive was one of the more ghastly spectacles I've seen lately. Not that I could do any better -- but then again, I didn't sign up to be on "Dancing with the Stars." Anyway, Bruno laid into Bolton, calling it the worst jive he'd seen on the show.
That didn't sit well with Bolton, who later said Bruno's comments were "inappropriate and disrespectful." To which I say -- get over yourself, Michael Bolton. You're not a Supreme Court Justice. You're a singer, who willingly signed on to compete on a glitzy dance competition that has never claimed to be anything but silly entertainment. And it's not as if Bruno was slamming Bolton as a singer, which is, however you feel about Mr. B.'s vocal stylings, what he does for a living. In other words, it's not like Bolton is going to lose all those primo dancing gigs he thought he'd lined up, because Bruno was a little bratty. Embarrassing Bruno's words might have been -- career-damaging, they weren't.
But some people are saying Bruno should officially apologize to Bolton for dissing his jive. People mag's Web site is reporting that "DWTS" producers are backing Bruno, and say he shouldn't have to apologize for doing his job. TMZ is also weighing in on this ballroom fray, as is E Online.
In any case, Bolton is outta there. On Tuesday night's results show, the singer was voted off.

New York, NY (WBNG Binghamton) Nearly 12 years after the attacks that destroyed the World Trade Center and killed thousands of people, a piece of one of the planes has been found in lower Manhattan.
A piece of landing gear was found by surveyors wedged between 51 Park Place and the building behind it, 50 Murray St., Thursday morning.
The equipment is believed to be from one of the commercial airliners that crashed into the Twin Towers on Sept. 11.
New York City police are treating the area like a crime scene until a review by the Office of the Chief Medical Examiner is completed. Then a decision could be made over whether to sift the soil for possible human remains.

HACKENSACK — A grand jury has indicted two Bergen County Police officers accused of tampering with a crime scene following a 2010 police chase.
The Bergen County Prosecutor's Office said Monday that Officers Saheed Baksh and Jeffrey Roberts were handed a seven-count indictment stemming from the high-speed pursuit of two burglary suspects that began in Paramus and ended in Bogota in August 2010.
According to the Prosecutor's office, suspects Carlos Camacho and Francesco Piserchia led Officer Baksh on a high-speed chase through half a dozen Bergen County towns as they fled from the scene of a Paramus home they had attempted to rob.
Video obtained by The Record shows a frenzied chase through residential streets that terminated at West Shore Avenue in Bogota. As one of the suspects begins to flee on foot, the sound of what investigators believe is two gunshots can be heard.
Prosecutor John L. Molinelli said Monday that Officer Baksh fired twice at Piserchia as he fled his vehicle, but that "two shell casings, which were originally observed at the shooting scene on West Shore Avenue, subsequently went missing."
Roberts was one of the responding officers at the scene, and he and Baksh are accused of conspiring to remove the casings, Molinelli said. They each face one count of conspiracy to commit official misconduct and two counts of official misconduct. They also each face one count of lying under oath after allegedly making false statements during subsequent investigation of the incident.
Neither of the suspects were shot in the pursuit, but Piserchia, who is currently being held on unrelated charges, is suing the Bergen County police for $17 million, alleging that he was surrendering when Baksh began shooting.
The charges against the two officers come after the Prosecutor's office reopened the investigation, telling The Record that he was dissatisfied with the Bergen County Police Department's administrative review of the incident.
Bergen County Police Capt. Alan Brundage told NJ.com Monday that his department had not received official word of the charges and could not comment on them at this time.

BATON ROUGE -- As the perception grows that LSU is sliding down from the mountaintop, 10 questions don't seem like enough.
It's truly a crossroads season for Coach Les Miles, whose name has been synonymous with "hot seat" after last season ended with a 19-17 loss to Penn State in the Capital One Bowl.
Can the Tigers reverse course and climb back into the Southeastern Conference and national elite? There are reasons to look both ways as the team reports today for fall practice, which begins Thursday.
The Tigers lost a big batch of seniors and will rely on unproven young players in several key positions. Quarterback is a concern after Jordan Jefferson failed to assert himself in the spring. The offensive line was awful last season and the running game a non-factor. The defense is trying to go light and speedy, which doesn't bode well when the Tigers face Alabama's bull-elephant backfield.
Then again, maybe that batch of seniors was part of the problem last season. There were some me-first attitudes and underperformers who will be replaced by youthful, enthusiastic Tigers. Quarterbacks Jefferson and Jarrett Lee each have a year of experience, the offensive line is more athletic and defenses built on speed sometimes are better playmakers.
Three new offensive coaches bring fresh ideas and a new outlook.
Decide for yourself:
1. Can Jordan Jefferson lead the way?
Jefferson holds the key to LSU's season. One good early sign is that the junior exhibited a noticeable air of confidence at SEC Media Days last month that previously was absent. He needs to carry that to the field when he's running the huddle, setting up the formation and communicating with the sideline. Oh, and also when the heat is on and he's in the pocket trying to find a receiver. Last season there were too many no-throws, throw-aways and sacks that repeatedly stymied LSU. It doesn't hurt that Lee had a good spring and is putting pressure on Jefferson, which he acknowledges. LSU is lucky to have two quarterbacks each with a full season of starts.
2. Will Joseph Barksdale's move allow the offensive line to fall into place?
Last season the Tigers were reluctant to run in short-yardage situations behind its supposed best offensive lineman, left tackle Ciron Black, who was overweight and hobbled by sore knees. Barksdale moves into that spot, which has opened the door for more athleticism on the line with Alex Hurst at right tackle, and guards Josh Dworaczyk and Will Blackwell, who should have started last season. The line should also benefit from another competitive August between centers P.J. Lonergan and T-Bob Hebert.
3. What will the unproven running backs corps prove?
Big mystery here. Senior Richard Murphy is on his last chance to show the promise he brought to LSU. He appears dedicated, having earned the prestigious No. "18" jersey (given to a player who best exemplifies character as much as his accomplishments) after trying to bounce back from knee surgery. Stevan Ridley looks like a steady hand after he came on strong at the end of last season. Michael Ford is better than both of them and could be the main man at the season's midpoint. But none of these players have really done it under the lights yet. Murphy's past M.O. was to get two carries and disappear. Ridley isn't big enough to count on when it's third-and-1. Ford will have to grow up fast.
4. How often will offensive coordinator Gary Crowton use Russell Shepard?
Early and often, fans hope. Shepard was a little light to handle the pounding of the SEC last season, and his head was spinning with the information overload on the field. He has settled in at wide receiver but will be used as a running back and in the Wildcat formation. You might even see him throw a pass this season, Miles hinted. Shepard, with his elusiveness and breakaway speed, needs 10 to 15 touches a game to be effective. Even that might not be enough for LSU fans, but at least Shepard will be ready for a bigger contribution.
5. Can anybody in that defensive front seven make some plays?
Tackle Drake Nevis and linebacker Kelvin Sheppard have made a few plays in their careers. Nevis needs to avoid nagging injuries to take some of the heat off Sheppard, who was a tackling machine last season. But LSU needs pressure up front. The Tigers went four consecutive games without a sack and had one combined against Florida, Alabama, Ole Miss and Georgia. Junior college end Ken Adams was brought in to beef up the pass rush, and redshirt freshman Sam Montgomery is on the other side. Both are on the lighter side in the 250-pound range and will have to learn to play the run while trying to improve on LSU's 21-sack total from 2009. Stefoin Francois has big shoes to fill at the hybrid safety-linebacker spot that Harry Coleman played so well last season. Ryan Baker is known for big hits on special teams but is inexperienced.
6. Are safeties Brandon Taylor and Jai Eugene physical enough to tackle opposing standouts?
LSU wanted more speed on defense and now has it. The Tigers will miss Chad Jones' tackling ability at safety and are taking a bit of a risk moving 182-pound Eugene there. Summarily, LSU has four cornerbacks on the field with Taylor at the other safety. Taylor had some noticeable missed tackles last season after moving from the corner but has made tackling a point of emphasis and has bulked up to 197 pounds. Against physical teams such as Alabama, you can expect to see Karnell Hatcher in the rotation.
7. Is it too much to ask Patrick Peterson to be the return man?
Trindon Holiday spoiled LSU fans. Peterson now gets a chance to show he's not just one of the nation's best cornerbacks. Peterson looked pretty good returning a blocked field-goal attempt for a touchdown against Ole Miss. He's aggressive and tough-minded, so expect him to be sure-handed when catching punts. He vows to be in the best shape of his life to handle the extra duty, but does LSU's coaching staff want to risk injury to a shut-down cornerback? Remember, Peterson was out with an injury when Alabama's Julio Jones broke open the Crimson Tide's victory last season?
8. Is there some second-year magic under John Chavis' defense?
If you didn't look at the stat sheet, you would think LSU had a miserable defensive season. It seemed like everyone moved the ball up and down the field on the Tigers. Yet the bottom line was that LSU was 11th in the nation in scoring defense (16.23 ppg), and that is the bottom line. But the Tigers need to get better at giving the ball back to the offense. Opponents fumbled 24 times, and LSU recovered only five. LSU's three-and-out offense didn't help the defense much. But in the defense's second year under Chavis, the terminology and understanding should take a quantum leap. The team accentuated physical play in spring. Look for a more aggressive unit in the fall that will be younger and perhaps more mistake prone, but maybe make more plays.
9. What will the three new offensive coaches bring?
Wide receivers coach Billy Gonzales should have an impact. He promised Shepard to make him LSU's version of Florida's do-it-all Percy Harvin. He has a ways to go, but Gonzales is a favorite of Crowton and should bring new wrinkles to the passing game. Frank Wilson has gotten high marks from his running back crew for bringing his youthful enthusiasm to the position he played at St. Augustine and Nicholls State. Tight ends coach Steve Ensminger was a coup for Miles. He's happy to be home and overqualified for the position.
10. How much will the coaching staff put into the opener against North Carolina?
More than it will let on. At some point, Miles might have to tone things down by saying that the Tigers can't put all their eggs in one basket, and that the North Carolina game is just as important as the other 11. Hogwash. He already has said the Tigers need a fast start. At least one extra week, maybe a week and a half, this month will be devoted to the Tar Heels. That's what the Tigers did in 2007. They spent part of fall camp game-planning for Week 2 opponent Virginia Tech and won 48-7, a victory that went a long way in propelling the Tigers to a BCS title.

FORT WAYNE, Ind. (Indiana's NewsCenter) – After seeing the tragedy that happened Aurora, Colorado, a local YouTube sensation and radio DJ decides to auction off her special laptop.
Andrea Russett, YouTube sensation and Saturday afternoon DJ on HOT 107.9FM, says she was moved by the Colorado movie massacre, so she's taking matters into her own hands to raise money for children who lost their parents in the shooting.
"I was watching the news about how there were so many people who lost their lives, and they were talking about this one person who lost their life who was a parent," said Russett. "I can't even imagine losing a parent."
So in 'Andrea style," she made a YouTube video explaining how she's auctioning off her MacBook Air laptop with the autographs of 16 musical artists, like One Direction, Rita Ora, and Stefano from American Idol to name a few, on E-Bay.
"I have this laptop I bring to every interview I do when I interview a celebrity. It filled up with signatures actually right when the horrible Colorado shooting happened," she said. "So I thought, it's full might as well auction it off to somebody who could donate the money to the kids who lost a parent."
Russett's boss at HOT 107.9FM jumped right on board. "We gave Andrea a laptop in order to do her performance at the station then we gave her an office. So then we had this extra laptop and Andrea decided that it would be something that she would have signed over time and she wanted to offer it up," said Phil Becker, General Manager of Oasis Radio Group. "We try to do different charity things. There's really no benefit for us, it's kind of just her thing."
According to the bidding history, the laptop was posted on E-Bay Tuesday morning at 9:00, the bidding started at $785. By 3:00 Tuesday afternoon it shot up to $12,000. Russett and Becker planned the bidding to go on for 62 days, representing the 12 victims and 50 people who were injured during the massacre. However, E-Bay only allows bidding for ten days. Despite having to cut the bidding short, who knows how high it could go.
"We didn't have a goal. I have no idea where the number could go," said Becker. "If we could do $20,000 that has to be the most expensive laptop ever bought."
But a laptop worth buying. "My mom and my dad are my life so this really made me think, if I was that kid I would be a mess. So maybe if we could go out and buy them toys or something just to brighten their day after such a devastating thing happened, it would help," said Russett.
"I don't think any of us can understand what they're going through. I don't think we can understand where they're at in the grieving process. Sometimes something as small as money for a funeral service may be of benefit. However they can use the money is really up to them," said Becker.
The highest bidder will not only receive the laptop, but Andrea will fly out and hand deliver the laptop herself. The bidding ends August 2. To bid on the laptop or watch Andrea Russett's informational video, click on "Russett Laptop Auction" under News Links on our homepage.

(408.46 kB) I had the privilege recently of field-testing 13 of the leading reciprocating saws on the market courtesy of JLC and the saw manufacturers. When JLC first contacted me about the test, John Matthew of Allenwood Construction and I were converting a college dorm into a nine-unit apartment building. I thought it would be a perfect place to abuse a dozen or so reciprocating saws. To get more input, I also enlisted the help of some other tradesmen, and tried to rotate the saws between carpenters every ten days or so. Each of the carpenters who used the saws has at least ten years of experience in the field, and most have well over twenty years in the trades. The testers were all small-volume, independent builders -- guys who pay close attention to the details of their tools and equipment. Ken Randall of Randall Contracting and his crew put the saws through their paces on a large commercial renovation of a late nineteenth century building in downtown Barre, Vt. Builders Pete Copping of Copping Construction and Kevin Rand of Kevin Rand Construction also used the saws and gave me feedback, as did Peter Thomas and John Ayers, who were working on an extensive renovation of a farmhouse in East Montpelier, Vt. Bob Pomer of Pomer Contracting and Dave Smith of Knob Hill Carpentry and Design used the saws, too, and weighed in.Deciding which recip saw to purchase has more to do with the volume and kind of work you do than any other factor. All the tools we tested are top-of-the-line, commercial-grade tools that will provide years of quality service if they are used properly and well-maintained. The saws ranged from two 6-amp models to several big 11-amp, heavy-duty... Login or Register to read the full article.

I spoke to my father on the phone (a Giant fan for over 50 years) and explained why the Giants sucked and more importantly why they needed to fire Perry Fewell.
I was so upset after that Saints game on Monday night that I even thought about not watching the Giants for the rest of the season.
That didn't last by the way.
I have been enjoying this playoff run as much as the one in 2007 because just like that one, this run is so unexpected.
During the recent playoff run the Giants defense has been better than anyone could have ever imagined and I think I've figured out why. Here are three reasons why the Giants defense has improved and looks like it's capable of being a crucial part of another championship run.
1 - Chase Blackburn's Return
He's never been spectacular in his career but he's always been steady. Blackburn has been able to use his knowledge of the Giants system to immediately upgrade their depleted linebacking corps. In fact, Blackburn picked off Aaron Rodgers to set up a touchdown in his first game back with the team. Blackburn is just one of those guys that is always around the ball and has pretty good instincts. His play has certainly fortified the Giants defense. The real question is why did it take until Week 13 to bring him back?
2 - Osi Umenyiora's Speed Rush
At the beginning of the season Osi wanted out big time. Let's just say it's a good thing Jerry Reese didn't make that move. Umenyiora has been a virtual sack machine (9 sacks, 9 games) during the season and he made the play of the game against the Packers yesterday. Osi is not the Giants best pass rusher but he is their best speed rusher as evidenced by his 32 career forced fumbles. He proved yesterday he is still a crucial part of a championship defense.
3 - Perry Fewell's Guidance
Yes, I admit I was wrong for wanted him fired (see first paragraph) but I have to admit I didn't see the turnaround coming. What Fewell has done with the defense is nothing short of remarkable. Since the Saints debacle he has simplified the defense by allowing the safeties to play deeper and allowing his underneath coverage to be more aggressive. The end result is teams haven't been able to get big plays and they have to nickel and dime their way down the field to get points. That approach is also bolstered by the fact the Giants have been forcing turnovers (4 against the Packers) and getting pressure with only the front four (sometimes five) guys. Lastly, I really like the fact that Fewell has found a way to get all of his pass rushers on the field and put them in position to wreak havoc and third and longs. It's like he's giving the defense a reward for playing well on first and second down.
So where do you weigh in?
Talk about the job Perry Fewell has done right here.

It certainly has been an exciting few rounds already in the NJSIAA state tournament. We have had 12 overtime games and one that was decided in shootout (Summit over Rumson on Thursday). The 24 teams left are vying for that ultimate trip to the Prudential Center. Here is a look at the Public B quarterfinal games.
Chatham at Mendham, Saturday, March 2, 8:15
After losing to Morristown in the Mennen Cup tournament, Chatham has won three straight, including a game against Randolph. It then dispatched of Wall, 4-1, in its first game of the tournament on Wednesday. C.J. Albanese will have to be solid in goal against an offensive team like Mendham. Mendham has not lost since Dec. 22 and won the Halvorsen Cup title with a 4-2 victory over Roxbury. It was taken to the brink by Madison in its first game of the tournament, but came out on top, 5-4, thanks to an overtime goal by Nathan Biery. Grant Jozefek leads the state in points with 102.
Red Bank at Ramsey, Sunday, March 3, 5:00
Red Bank has been the darlings of the tournament, pulling two big upsets to get where it is. A 5-4 triumph over Glen Rock was followed up by a 3-2 overtime win over Indian Hills. Joe DelSordo scored the game-winner over Indian Hills and the 25-seed Red Bank will take on top-seeded Ramsey. Ramsey defeated Indian Hills, 1-0, to win the Big North Green title. Ramsey received a bye as the top seed of the Public B bracket and then edged upstart Wayne Hills, 1-0, thanks to a Connor DiTomaso goal and 22 saves from Justin Larkin.
Summit at Morristown, Sunday, March 3, 6:30
Summit faced a battle-tested Rumson team who was coming off an overtime victory against Tenafly. Summit and Rumson battled through overtime and Summit scored three goals to none in the shootout and came out victorious, 2-1. Now the Union County squad has a chance for some redemption as it lost to Morristown, 3-1, earlier this season. Morristown downed Point Pleasant Boro, 5-1, in its only game so far. Shane Brown looks to shut down talented forwards Riley Flynn, Chris Zanelli, and Liam McLaughlin for Summit.
Ramapo at Kinnelon, Sunday, March 3, 7:00
Ramapo bounced back following two losses to Indian Hills and Morristown-Beard to defeat Mahwah before the tournament began. Ramapo was able to stop upset-minded Woodbridge with a 2-0 victory in the second round. Kinnelon came off its Mennen Cup co-championship and took down Sparta, 4-1, in the second round. Kinnelon has a solid goaltender in Thomas Huber and one of the top forwards in the state, Brian Gnad.

Andrea Meisgeier was 33 when she and her husband Eric had their son Maxwell. It was so easy to get pregnant that Meisgeier didn't worry about the timing of a second pregnancy.
But after six years of trying to conceive, the Camas, Wash., couple is coming to terms with the the likelihood that they won't have another child. Andrea Meisgeier, now 39, took fertility drugs, tried acupuncture and underwent more than $25,000 in fertility treatments that included intrauterine insemination and in vitro fertilization -- none of which were successful.
The couple considered adoption or using an egg donor. In the end, they decided they weren't comfortable with either.
"I have made my first round of peace with it," said Meisgeier, a stay-at-home mom. "There is still definite times when you feel there is a lot of mom guilt. My husband and I don't talk about it a lot. In a sense you feel like you failed your first child. Maybe a piece of it is you feel like you failed yourself."
The Meisgeiers aren't alone. Secondary infertility -- the inability to get pregnant after having a child -- is on the rise, said Diana Wu, a reproductive endocrinologist at the OHSU Center for Women's Health, who cited the latest data from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. Eleven percent of American couples -- about four million families -- experienced secondary infertility in 2010 -- up from 3.3 million couples in 2006.
Wu said the reasons for secondary infertility mirror those for primary infertility -- the inability to become pregnant in the first place. About 35 percent experience problems because of the woman and another 35 percent are due to the man. About 20 percent are due to both. Ten percent of couples have unexplained infertility, Wu said.
Couples often delay seeking medical advice when they have trouble conceiving the second -- or third -- time around, said Wu.
"They don't realize there could be something wrong and they are busy with work and taking care of their child or baby," she said. "They may continue to wait longer."
Often the man or woman had a "baseline subtle abnormality" when they got pregnant the first time and the problem, which went undetected, worsens over time, said Wu.
For women, irregular menstrual periods or ovulation and weight changes can complicate conception. Pelvic or tubal factors, such as endometriosis, can worsen over time and interfere with fertility. Caesarean sections and other pelvic surgeries can also lead to scar tissue or blocked fallopian tubes, both of which can hurt fertility.
For men, testosterone supplements can damage fertility, said Wu. She said supplements meant to boost libido and energy have a "tremendously negative impact" on sperm production. The effects can be long-term and even permanent.
"It takes a long time to overcome," she said. "It can take a year or more to get back to normal after dropping the testosterone."
One of the more common reasons for infertility is a woman's age.
Though male fertility starts to significantly drop off after age 50, women experience a steep decline after 35.
Consider these sobering stats: Wu said about 7 percent of woman experience infertility by age 29; 11 percent by 34, 33 percent by age 39, 50 percent by age 41 and 87 percent by age 44.
And the chances of conception drop after just three months of trying, said Wu.
"It's always shocking to see these numbers, which are a lot lower than what we expect," she said.
Even when women are in their peak reproductive years, fertility is a hit or miss endeavor.
"In our prime, at best couples in their early 20s have somewhere between 20 to 25 percent chance to conceive at best, even in their first month of trying," she said.
Wu said couples trying to conceive can take steps to improve their odds.
- See a reproductive specialist if you've had regular unprotected intercourse for a year without conceiving. Woman older than 35 or those who suspect an abnormality or have irregular cycles should seek care after six months of trying. Wu said patients experiencing infertility have options, including intrauterine insemination, which involves placing concentrated sperm into the uterus at the time of ovulation. The procedure shortens the distance to the egg and improves the change for pregnancy.
- She said couples trying to conceive should "optimize the timing of intercourse." She said the "best fertile window" is a 6-day interval before a woman ovulates. Over-the-counter ovulation kits are widely available at drug and grocery stores. She recommends performing the ovulation test with the second urine of the day in mid to late morning.
"If a couple has intercourse every day or every other day in the 6-day window then that can optimize natural fertility," she said.
- Minimize the use of water-based vaginal lubricants, which can decrease sperm mobility and survival. Wu recommends Pre-Seed, a cellulose-based lubricant. She said mineral oil also has no negative effects on fertility.
- Limit coffee consumption to a cup or two a day. Avoid recreational drugs and tobacco.
- Get support. Websites for the American Society for Reproductive Medicine and the National Infertility Association each offer resources and information on local support groups.
As for Meisgeier, she is deeply grateful for her son. His grandparents lavish him with love and attention. His college fund is all set.
But she always imagined having two children who would share their childhood and support each other into adulthood.
"You feel guilty if you don't appreciate what you've got," she said. "Complaining about not having a second child really feels indulgent and guilty."
She struggles with regret. She wishes she had started trying to have a family at a younger age. She wishes her doctors had warned her about the steep decline in fertility as women age. She said she spent her 20s focused on graduate school, work and living on her own. She didn't give family planning much thought.
"I wish along the way my gynecologist had reminded me at every single appointment that just because you put your fertility on hold all these years doesn't mean it's going to be there when you are 34 or 35," she said.

text: I've wondered about familial hypercholesterolemia and how that fits into the whole picture. To be honest I don't bother much with lipid panels. I just eat a moderate fat/moderate carb clean diet within caloric balance and get regular exercise and sun exposure. I'm sure the science on blood fats and cardiovascular disease is still in it's infancy and is a lot more complicated than we all realize. Their seems to be a lot of bias when it comes to what people believe are the most important aspects.

This year, the convention is hosting the KVD Cast Off, a fishing competition to benefit the March of Dimes. Entrants will pay $10 to face off in a casting challenge. Winners will be entered in a drawing to win an opportunity to fish with VanDam at a summer tournament near his Kalamazoo home.
"We had a lot of interest when we held this in Detroit," said show publicist Tom Huggler. "We're expecting an even bigger response from Grand Rapids, since he's better known on the west side of the state."
Born and raised in Kalamazoo, VanDam is a four-time Bassmaster Classic winner and is currently the world's top angler. He selected the March of Dimes as the charity to receive funds from the competition.
"He was happy to do it," Huggler said. "It really says a lot about him that he's so dedicated to the cause."
According to Huggler, the show hopes to raise several thousand dollars to donate to the March of Dimes.
"Kevin is a great advocate and spokesperson for the March of Dimes," said March of Dimes Division Director Dana DeLuca. "His twins were born premature, so he has that experience to pull from."
March of Dimes is a nonprofit which works with mothers and babies. They provide information and opportunities for childbirth-related health issues. According to DeLuca, 88 cents of every dollar raised stays within the Kalamazoo community.
The Ultimate Sport Show-Grand Rapids will be held from March 15-18 at DeVos Place. Opportunities to enter the competition will be offered daily.

You might not be heading to Sochi, Russia, for next month's Winter Olympics, but Ralph Lauren can outfit you for your opening ceremony party.
A printed cardigan will set you back $598, official white turtleneck $245 and fleece athletic pants $165. Add the reindeer hat for $95 and you'll fit right in with Team USA as they march in the opening ceremony on Feb. 7.
Sadly, the official Ceremony Leather boots are no longer available on Ralph Lauren's Team USA website.
If you want another reason for purchasing this year's ensemble, 10 percent of the proceeds from the sale of the cardigans will go the U.S. Olympic Committee.
The outfits were unveiled Thursday on the "Today Show."
This is the fourth time Ralph Lauren has designed Team USA's gear.
"It a proud moment for us to watch these premier athletes as they walk out representing our nation on a global stage in front of billions of people worldwide," said David Lauren, executive vice president of advertising, marketing and corporate communications for Ralph Lauren.
Here are some of more of today's top stories:
• Where is the torch? It took a little over two hours for the Olympic torch to be carried from Pyatigorsk to Stavropol on Thursday. The city was a base to protect the southern border of the state. It lies exactly on the 45th parallel, which makes it equidistant from the North Pole and the Equator.
• Stay or go? Some people are starting to make that decision, according to a report on CNN. Tracey Madigan's husband has covering the Olympics for a French-Canadian TV network for a number of years. They decided this would be the Games she and their three children joined him. Now she is scrambling to cancel her plane tickets and get her money back. Taking her children to Sochi is out of the question.
• Threats have come before. Christine Brennan is preparing to cover her 16th consecutive Olympics. She said other Games had their security issues, and most came off without a hitch. She expects the same this time. The USA Today reporter said there were thoughts that North Koreans would open their dams and flood South Korea's rivers in 1988. It didn't happen.
You can follow PennLive's special Olympics page for news and features, and once the competition begins, the page will have complete results and current medal standings. We will also bring you plenty of pictures and videos.
The Patriot-News will provide readers with a special front-page pullout that will include athlete profiles and medal standings.
So sit back and settle in for the 2014 Sochi Olympics.

Good evening!
Less than a 50 percent chance of a thunderstorm Wednesday into Wednesday night.
"00Horizon NJ Health Managed Medicaid has just begun to deny services for drug addicted newborns and their mothers.
"Until now, these babies were provided medical management of nutritional, gastrointestinal and respiratory requirements within a rehabilitative setting — Neonatal Abstinence Programs.
"This bridge service between the acute care hospital setting to home addresses both the health of the baby and the mother's coping skills to ensure a safe discharge — and ultimately, more of a possible drain on the system later.
"This is a group that really has no advocate.
"However, we found some influential people who would be pleased to be interviewed about this matter — and how denial of access to Neonatal Abstinence Programs would be a major loss for these babies and their mothers.
"One is the premier physician in methadone treatment in New Jersey.
"I would love to provide the best contact info for her, and to help set up an interview if you are interested.
"I also have a clinical director of a methadone clinic who would love to speak to this matter.
"Please let me know what you think.
"This group really has no voice or advocate, and the elimination of Neonatal Abstinence Program services would be a great loss to this population.
"Thank you for so much for your time.''

SYRACUSE, N.Y. -- A pair of endangered markhor, the national animal of Pakistan, has been born at the Rosamond Gifford Zoo.
Sasha and Turgan were born June 23, the zoo announced today.
The markhor, the largest member of the goat family, has been listed as endangered since 1994. The Rosamond Gifford Zoo is one of about a dozen in the United States with the markhor on exhibit.
"The addition of Sasha and Turgan to our herd is a testament to the Rosamond Gifford Zoo's commitment to international markhor conservation efforts," zoo Director Ted Fox said in a statement. "We are proud to exhibit this national animal of Pakistan."
Only 2,500 markhor remain in the wild. Herds have been decimated by trophy hunting, habitat destruction and competition from domestic livestock. The animals are part of a Species Survival Plan, a collaborative effort between the Association of Zoos and Aquariums and zoos around the world to help ensure their survival.
Sasha and Turgan are now on display in the zoo's Wildlife Trails area along with their sister, Marisa, who was born a year ago Saturday.
Sasha was 5.5 pounds at birth; Turgan was 7 pounds. Adult markhor can stand up to 45 inches tall at the shoulder and weigh up to 250 pounds.

Week 4 of the fantasy NFL season answered a lot of questions for owners. The performances of several wide receivers will have a lasting effect on the rest of their season.
This season has seen a lot of inconsistency from the likes of quarterbacks, receivers and running backs. The stock of players has been fluctuating more than ever and it's important to evaluate players on a weekly basis.
Coming out of Week 4, a lot of wide receivers have a different outlook than they did heading into it. Whether it be because of an injury or a particular performance, the following receivers stand out after Week 4 due to a significant change.

MOBILE -- Using a strong third period of play was the key in separating Brantley from the Demons of McIntosh and fashioning the Bulldogs' 91-75 victory in the Class 1A South Regional semifinals Tuesday night at South Alabama's Mitchell Center.
Outscoring McIntosh by a 25-12 margin, one built on a solid transition game, the Bulldogs created all the cushion they would need to pick up the win and advance to Friday's regional title game against J.F. Shields.
"I thought most of the first half was back and forth,'' Brantley head coach Jonny Mitchell said. "We made some 3-pointers that kept us in the game. We were able to put it away in the second half because we were able to turn some rebounds into transition baskets.''
McIntosh switched from a 2-3 zone defense to man-to-man coverage, but Brantley's ability to handle the basketball and pick up some easy one-on-one scores, forced McIntosh to return to a zone, but it was too late to change the course of the game. The big third period put the game way for the Bulldogs.
Devante Porter led the way for Brantley with 24 points, including a 3-of-5 showing from 3-point range. Wesley Person added 17 points, with Torino Upshaw scoring 15 points and grabbing a game-high 14 rebounds. Jared Wiley had 13 ponts. McIntosh was led y Everette Horn's 21 points. Ladarison Lewis had 14 points and eight rebounds, with Quatell Land providing 10 points and 10 rebounds. Norman Pressley scored 11 points and grabbed six rebounds.
Brantley faces Shields at 5:20 p.m. Friday afternoon for the title.

For me, the social aspect of golf is a bigger draw than a desire to make par on every hole or to hit a perfect 7-iron shot, for instance. Good thing, as a par is a seldom achieved score on my card.
While I can be competitive (in word games, mostly), when my feet touch the fairway, my only hope is for some good company, a little conversation and the ability to keep up with more highly skilled golfers.
Take my weekly league, for instance. I look forward to it and enjoy it thoroughly, whether we test ourselves on the vicious dogleg left on the back nine or the deceptively simple back-to-back holes on the front.
But do I know my handicap? Nah. Do I check posted scores to see how others fared? Not a chance. I enjoy the great salads and the interesting talk as we gather at the clubhouse afterward.
The thing is, I can usually find one shot per round to recall where everything clicked. My hips rotated. I hit the ball squarely. I followed through. The ball flew high and fast, and came to rest in the middle of that beautiful green fairway.
Not long ago, my minimalist golf philosophy was tested quite a bit. I journeyed to a northern Kentucky all-inclusive resort to spend time with women who were true golfers.
I could tell they were true golfers. They had more than one pair of golf shoes. Their clubs all matched. Their golf bags were hung with ball and tee organizers. They had visors to go with each outfit, and they knew the functions of all the odd little tools golfers use.
I was the baby of the group, and these women almost did me in. Not that they were critical far from it. They encouraged my good shots and forgave my many duffs. And they never once got tired of golfing.
After the first nine on a hot Southern summer day, I innocently asked if we would be taking a break at the turn.
"Heck, no" was the collective reply. "We've got nine more holes to play before lunch!"
After lunch, we played another 18. That night, we walked the lighted par-3 course.
At the end of the weekend, we had played more than 72 holes of golf. Unbelievable. My right arm throbbed, and I had a square-shaped sunburn on the tops of my feet because of my golf sandals.
Accompanying the pain, however, will be wonderful memories of late-night giggles, a companionable twilight walk through a nearby subdivision, a sinful brownie-and-ice-cream dessert, numerous inside jokes and the kind welcome that each of the golfing ladies extended my way.
Oh, and I can't forgot that one lovely par that I carded on No. 17.
Thanks, Gail, Jane, Barb, Clarice, Dot, Sandy and Norma.

1 of Eudy Simelane's Killers Was Sentenced to Life. 2 Others Walked Free
After a fit of stops and starts, three men finally went on trial for the anti-gay murder of South African soccer player Eudy Simelane. Their sentences were just handed down. The results are mixed.
Simelane, a tall muscular activist who died in April 2008 at age 31, was stabbed all over her body, including the insides of her upper thighs. One of her murderers, Thato Mpithi, pleaded guilty in February and named three other assailants (before recounting). Two of those men were just acquitted for lack of evidence; it didn't help that Mpithi refused to testify against them after originally naming them as co-conspirators.
But the third, Themba Mvubu, whose pants were stained with Simelane's blood, received a life sentence.
So while was he smiling on his way out of the courtroom? On the way out, he told a reporter, "Ach, I'm not sorry at all."
On the one hand, it's a victory: Two men are behind bars for the brutal "lesbian cure" killing. One the other, two men who prosecutors say were also involved just walked free. And then there's the whole issue of the motivation behind the murder. That the men tried to rape Simelane, as a means of "curing" her of homosexuality, before killing her was never established at trial. The judge, meanwhile, didn't even like using the term "lesbian"; "Is there another word that you can use instead of that one?" he asked prosecutors.
The man who pleaded guilty, Mr. Mpithi, says he killed Simelane in a robbery, not because she was gay. One partner in crime, Johannes Mahlangu (who was acquitted), supposedly raped her because she didn't have any money to hand over. And then they had to kill her, you see, because they didn't want to get caught.
I fail to see the crime here. they try to cure pedophiles all the time; what's wrong with trying to cure a lesbian? I probably wouldn't have chose the method those guys did, but at least they are fighting the fight.
@John John: Everything about your statement is abominable.
@William Day:I hope you do not rape for your ignorance!

Former Philadelphia Eagles defensive end Jevon Kearse has been arrested and charged with driving under the influence following a traffic stop near the Vanderbilt University campus.
Vanderbilt spokesman Jim Patterson told The Associated Press that Kearse was stopped early Sunday morning after campus police reported seeing the SUV that Kearse was driving weaving across the road.
Patterson says Kearse took a field sobriety test, but refused a breathalyzer. He was arrested and charged with DUI and violation of Tennessee's implied consent law for failing to take the breathalyzer test.
Kearse, the NFL Defensive Rookie of the Year in 1999 with the Titans, re-signed with Tennessee in the offseason after spending the last four seasons in Philadelphia.

First impression on unpacking the Q702 test unit was the solid feel and clean, minimalist styling.
For work use, Microsoft Word and Excel programs pre-installed on the device are adequate for preparing short documents.
The Fujitsu LifeBook UH574 allowed for great mobility without being obnoxiously heavy or clunky. Its twelve hours of battery life did not disappoint.
The screen was particularly good. It is bright and visible from most angles, however heat is an issue, particularly around the Windows button on the front, and on the back where the battery housing is located.
My first impression after unboxing the Q702 is that it is a nice looking unit. Styling is somewhat minimalist but very effective. The tablet part, once detached, has a nice weight, and no buttons or switches are located in awkward or intrusive positions.

Have you ever plopped down on the couch in front of the TV, with your chips and soda, eager to watch the newest episode of The Walking Dead, but you can't find the remote anywhere? You look everywhere: underneath the cushions, behind the pillows, even under the coffee table, but you can't seem to remember where you put the thing, and Walking Dead has already started. You're wasting time and don't even consider getting up to turn the channel from the TV. That's just barbaric.
Google TV is now has voice control. If you want to watch ABC news, you don't have to worry about picking up a remote and scrolling the list of channels. Simply say, "ABC" and the TV will turn the channel for you. Google TV's Internet is also voice-activated, so searching the web can be done even if you're across the room, nowhere near a keyboard and mouse.
It's a move that competes with Microsoft's own home entertainment efforts, the Xbox capable of voice-commands and gestures for some time now. As the connected device ecosystem closes in for every major player, home entertainment is a consumer-riddled market to complete this loop.
And speaking of the Internet, Google Fiber went live in Kansas City on Tuesday. Rates are at $70 for 1Gbps speed, which is significantly faster than what any American ISP is offering.
"We just got it today and I've been stuck in front of my laptop for the last few hours. It's unbelievable. I'm probably never going to leave the house, " said Mike Demarais, founder of Threedee.
To compete with the new features out on the market, Samsung has decided to create unbreakable devices that will be made of plastic instead of glass, which will make them lighter, hard to break and easy to bend. The flexible displays will incorporate OLEDs, which is already being used in the South Korean's smartphones and television sets.
Flexible OLEDs have been in development for years, but manufacturers have not been able to commercialize them due to technological barriers in the market, so Samsung plans to be the first to bring them to store shelves.
