Kansas City's Crossroads Academy Hopes For A High School In 2018 By Kevin Collison • Nov 10, 2016 Kevin Collison / KCUR 89.3 Four years after opening a school for 190 elementary students in a former office building on Central Street, Crossroads Academy is planning to open a high school in downtown Kansas City in 2018. But first, it needs a building. "It's an exciting time for us to be able to grow and add more kids," said Dean Johnson, executive director of the charter school. "Parents have asked about a high school and that's always been part of our goals." Kauffman And Hall Family Foundations Donate $1.6 Million To Charter School By Anna Sturla • Jul 12, 2016 Anna Sturla / KCUR 89.3 The Kauffman Foundation and the Hall Family foundation will donate more than $1.5 million over two years to the Kansas City Neighborhood Academy, a new charter school serving East Kansas City. The Kauffman Foundation is donating $1 million while the Hall Family Foundation is donating $600,000. "This is a tremendous vote of confidence for our new school," says Urban Neighborhood Initiative Executive Director Dianne Cleaver. UNI was created by the Greater Kansas City Chamber of Commerce in order to revitalize Kansas City neighborhoods. With Plans To Expand, KIPP KC Buys Downtown Building By Kyle Palmer • Jun 18, 2016 KIPP KC KIPP KC has rented space in the old Metropolitan Community College Pioneer Campus building at 18th and Prospect Avenue in Kansas City for eight years. Now, the charter middle school has bought the entire 95,000-square foot property as it embarks on a larger expansion plan. The school offers grades 5-8 and will add classes in kindergarten through fourth grade next year. School officials anticipate adding these grades will boost enrollment by more than 100 students, to around 380 total. Charting The Waters By Gina Kaufmann & Matthew Long-Middleton • May 25, 2016 It's a question you hear a lot, especially if you have young children and live on the Missouri side of the state line: Where are you sending your kids to school? We explore the world of charter schools — they're getting so big in KC that even the district is opening one. Who chooses charter schools and why? Are charters bringing on a new era of thriving public education in KC or taking away from struggling district schools? Are they integrating urban neighborhoods or segregating communities in new way? Guests: KCPS Superintendent Mark Bedell By Steve Kraske & Lisa Rodriguez • Apr 4, 2016 Expectations are high for new Kansas City Public Schools Superintendent Mark Bedell and the challenges, including regaining full accreditation, are great. We visit with the new superintendent on his first visit to the district. All Smiles As Mark Bedell Prepares To Take Over Kansas City Public Schools By Sam Zeff • Apr 4, 2016 Sam Zeff / KCUR 89.3 Two things have emerged as Mark Bedell prepares to take over as superintendent for the Kansas City Public Schools; he has plenty of support from the district and he's ready to take over the growing charter school movement in the city. "I'm very competitive. And we are losing kids to the charter schools so they are a competitor," Bedell said at a news conference at Paseo Academy. While Bedell said he would foster a "cordial" relationship with the city's charter schools, he says the district must do better in attracting them to KCPS. The Next Journey By Gina Kaufmann, Matthew Long-Middleton, Sylvia Maria Gross & Kyle Palmer • Apr 4, 2016 A graduating high school senior without US citizenship reflects on her journey so far. With several college options to choose from, how does this accomplished student's immigration status influence the decision about where to go? Guest: Brittany, senior, Alta Vista Charter High School Hey, Kansas City Teachers, Need Classroom Supplies? Here's $95,000 By Kyle Palmer • Mar 16, 2016 Kyle Palmer / KCUR Twitter founder Jack Dorsey made a splash this month when he announced he would fund all Missouri teachers' projects on the education crowd-funding site DonorsChoose.org. The gift bought classroom supplies — everything from Chromebooks to crayons— for about 600 educators statewide. Kansas City Public School Board Write-In Races Get Competitive By Kyle Palmer • Mar 1, 2016 Courtesy photo / Kansas City Public Schools At first, there seemed to be nobody ready to run on the April 5 ballot for three open seats on the Kansas City Public Schools board. Now that's changed dramatically. A total of five people have publicly declared write-in candidacies, several coming in the past week. And now two of the races have multiple candidates, lending a sense of belated competition to a campaign that some had feared would be uncontested and, as a result, overlooked. A race in Sub-District 5 : Ajia Morris and Catina Taylor The Future Of Education Just May Be In Liberty, Missouri By Kyle Palmer • Feb 29, 2016 Remember the water cycle? It's typically first learned in elementary school, around third grade. You know, precipitation, evaporation, condensation? Many readers may remember filling out a graphic organizer to help them memorize the steps. Others may recall having to answer a question about the water cycle on a standardized test. A Deadline Deleted, KCPS Board Write-In Candidate Now Eligible By Kyle Palmer • Feb 20, 2016 Kyle Palmer / KCUR Natalie Lewis is eligible to be a candidate for the Kansas City Public School Board. There is no doubt, she says, after a critical deadline was deleted sometime Friday from the district's election notice online. "Because of that information, I almost walked away twice. But I knew in the gut of guts and in talking to people that that information was not accurate," she says. Write-In Candidates For KCPS Board Face This Question: Are You Crazy? By Kyle Palmer • Feb 19, 2016 Courtesy photo / Kansas City Public Schools Natalie Lewis really wants to be on the Kansas City Public School board. How much? Last week she moved into the district to an apartment just off the Plaza for the express purpose of running for the open seat in Sub-District 1, which covers much of downtown. "Yes, it was drastic. But that fact that we had no one on the ballot required a drastic reaction," she says. A Mizzou Education Now Costs $100,000 For Undocumented Immigrants By Kyle Palmer • Feb 16, 2016 Adam_Procter400 / Flickr - CC For a small group of high school seniors in the metro, their college options are narrowing because of a law passed last year in Jefferson City. Once-affordable options like Metropolitan Community College now seem like iffy bets. UMKC and Northwest Missouri State are a stretch. Mizzou? Forget about it. New KCPS Master Plan Makes Room For District-Sponsored Charter School By Sam Zeff • Feb 10, 2016 Sam Zeff / KCUR A modified master plan for Kansas City Public Schools (KCPS) consolidates two east side schools and turns over one of the buildings to the district's charter school partner, a plan that packed parents from the targeted school into the board meeting Wednesday night. The new plan still closes Southwest Early College Campus and moves its students to East High School. It also still closes Satchel Paige Elementary on east 75th Street. Priced Out Of Missouri Colleges, Undocumented Students Seek 'Mercy' In Nebraska By Kyle Palmer • Feb 10, 2016 Kyle Palmer / KCUR On a Saturday afternoon, four female students from Kansas City's Alta Vista Charter High School are making a three-hour trip in a rented minivan to Omaha. As they get closer, they each practice their pitches for why they deserve a full-ride scholarship to college. Brittany emphasizes the long hours she puts into extracurricular work making an electric car. Anahi lays out how she wants to be a lawyer to better "serve my community" as an adult. Kansas City Charters Plan New Downtown High School By Kyle Palmer • Jan 27, 2016 Crossroads Academy Dean Johnson, the executive director of the successful K-8 charter school, Crossroads Academy, in downtown Kansas City, says the most common question he gets from parents is: when are you going to open a high school? Now, he has an answer. Hope Academy Fails To Return Funds, Missouri Attorney General Files Suit By Elle Moxley • Jan 25, 2016 Missouri Attorney General Chris Koster is suing shuttered Kansas City charter school Hope Academy to the tune of $3.7 million. An audit released last month found the school grossly overstated its daily attendance, resulting in millions of dollars in overpayments from the Department of Elementary and Secondary Education. Hope Academy claimed 97 percent attendance. But only about a third of students ever showed up for class. What Kansas City Third-Graders Think A Community Needs To Thrive By Sylvia Maria Gross • Dec 9, 2015 Sylvia Maria Gross / KCUR We talk a lot about community and neighborhoods here at KCUR 89.3, so when it came to our attention that some Kansas City third-graders were investigating the same subjects, it piqued our interest. Miss Allie Heemstra and Mrs. Valerie Diebel's classes at the Crossroads Academy (a public charter school in downtown Kansas City, Missouri) have studied history, visited 10 neighborhoods from Waldo to Pendleton Heights, talked to "change-makers" and read about community movements. Audit: Kansas City's Hope Academy Falsified Records, Received Millions In Overpayments By Sam Zeff • Dec 4, 2015 A state audit charges the now-closed Hope Academy charter school in Kansas City of grossly overstating its attendance and receiving millions of dollars in excess state aid. The audit says attendance data submitted to the Missouri Department of Elementary and Secondary Education in 2012-13 and 2013-14 "was incomplete and inaccurate and significantly overstated actual attendance." That finding wasn't a surprise. DESE did a surprise visit to the school on Paseo in November 2013 and quickly discovered the attendance problem. Artificially Intelligent Software Could Change Traditional Classrooms By Steve Kraske & Lisa Rodriguez • Nov 19, 2015 In a time when the internet and computers have drastically changed the way the world works, many classrooms look just as they did 25 years ago. But that is changing as artificially intelligent software that adapts to a student's learning level begins to appear in schools. Guests: This Kansas City Charter School Has Been Tapped As The Best In Missouri By Kyle Palmer • Nov 13, 2015 Courtesy photo / Kauffman School Education insiders in Kansas City have been closely watching the Ewing Marion Kauffman School ever since it started in 2011. Now, the rest of Missouri may perk up. This week, the Missouri Charter Public School Association named Kauffman its Missouri Charter School of the Year, citing its "strong academic performance," "innovative professional development" and "daily efforts to build community and engage parents." Kansas City Public Schools Propose Sweeping Changes On A Tight Deadline By Sam Zeff • Nov 5, 2015 Sam Zeff / KCUR 89.3 After 18 months of study Kansas City Public Schools (KCPS) released its master plan Wednesday night in a long and contentious board meeting. The plan covers which buildings will be closed, an overhaul of the transportation system, a plan for year-round class for low-performing elementary schools and the rejuvenation of high school extracurricular activities with an emphasis on sports. The district says about 2,000 children, 15 percent of the district, would feel the change of school closing and the resulting boundary changes. Proposed Midtown Charter Schools Could Soon Be Approved For 2016 Opening By Cody Newill • Oct 25, 2015 knittymarie / Flickr-CC Educators behind two proposed elementary charter schools in midtown Kansas City are eagerly awaiting approval next week by the Missouri State Board of Education. The Midtown Community School Initiative approached Citizens of the World Charter Schools last year in hopes of opening two schools in Kansas City. CWC operates charters in New York and Los Angeles. They hope to open the Kansas City schools next fall. Crossroads Academy To Open Second Downtown Kansas City Campus By Sam Zeff • Oct 22, 2015 Crossroads Academy One of the more successful charter schools in Kansas City says it plans to open a second campus in time for the next school year. Crossroads Academy is on Central Street just around the corner from the main branch of the Kansas City Public Library. It opened in 2012, has doubled in size since that time and now educates about 350 students. Executive Director Dean Johnson says the school will look for a building to buy downtown that will eventually serve about 400 students in kindergarten through eighth grades. 'Why I Teach': Alta Vista Educator Wants To Work On His Craft By Kyle Palmer • Sep 17, 2015 Kyle Palmer / KCUR Name: Devon Teran Number Of Years In Education: 8 Role: Assistant Principal, Alta Vista Charter High School (Kansas City) Devon Teran grew up in Wichita with parents who were educators. In fact, his father served as superintendent of Wichita Public Schools before moving to Grandview nearly a decade ago. (Ralph Teran recently announced his retirement from that post.) 'Flight Simulator' Method Helps Young Teachers At Kauffman School Find Success By Kyle Palmer • Sep 15, 2015 Kyle Palmer / KCUR Listen Listening... / 5:01 On a recent Friday afternoon, once students had left for the weekend, the fifth-grade team at the Kauffman School in Kansas City stayed behind and practiced walking down the hallway. They were working on how to lead students from class to class during passing periods. While six or so teachers played the role of (relatively compliant) students, one teacher would lead them down the hall giving instructions. Kansas City Public Schools To Partner In Charter School By Sam Zeff • Aug 27, 2015 Sam Zeff / KCUR In a heated two-hour debate, the Kansas City Public Schools Board of Education voted Wednesday night to get into the charter school business. The vote was the next step in the process for a partnership between KCPS and the Urban Neighborhood Initiative (UNI). Kauffman School Expands As It Celebrates Some Of The Highest Test Scores In Kansas City By Kyle Palmer • Aug 19, 2015 Kyle Palmer / KCUR Kansas City's newest charter high school opened Wednesday. Well, not totally new. The Ewing Marion Kauffman School has been on the Kansas City charter landscape for four years now. It opened in 2011 with a lone fifth-grade class and gradually expanded, adding a grade each year. Now, the school is opening a brand new building on its campus near 63rd Street and Paseo Boulevard. And that original fifth-grade class will become Kauffman's first set of ninth-graders. Kansas City Public Schools Cleared To Become A Charter School Sponsor By Sam Zeff • Mar 20, 2015 Sylvia Maria Gross / KCUR The Kansas City school district may be getting into the charter school business. The district says it received the OK from the state board of education on Tuesday to become a charter school sponsor. Kansas City Superintendent Steve Green says if the charter schools are going to continue to play a bigger role in education, the district should be part of that discussion. "This gets us to the table and allows us to be an active and equal participant in the conversation about charter schools in our community," Green said in a statement. Pages1 2 next › last »

The word would be SAVORY delicious satisfieing
We were visiting a local resort and found this place on Yelp! At first we weren't sure if we wanted to try it but the steady stream of happy faces coming out of it told us we would like it.
My 90 year old mom had a huge banana pecan pancake and added chocolate chips. It was the size of a medium pizza! The friendly waitress told her if she ate the whole thing the waitress would pay for it!
Mom tried but couldn't do it. I had the most amazing Reuben Omelette. The home fries are unique and a must have.

So, you would like to be a strongman? What you need offers some tried-and-true strongman training then. If you'd like some suggestions for a workout which will take your muscles to limits you didn't know they had then you're from the right place. Buckle up, because we're wanting to do a comprehensive strongman training circuit. Let's go through your circuit exercises one by one.
How to Train for the Strongman Competition
Unlike bodybuilding, strongman training is really best done outside of the gym - in the real world of the strongman. Unfortunately, if you do not have access to a full strongman course that you can practice in a few times weekly, we're kind of limited to gym exercises plus some outdoor activities that may mimic the events that you will be competing in. So, here are a few exercises that you can do to practice for a few different competitions.
Carrying: About the most strongman events is carrying of numerous objects short distances. This events form of defines the whole sport, so ensure that you are packing on extra week lying on your back, hands and feet and simulating the amount of time that you'll be carrying in competition.
Pulling: While you do have the option to get a big truck to fit in the parking lot of your local gym and go out and try pull it, you will find less complicated ways to prepare for a pulling competition. What you want to do is look for a gym that has a prowler or possibly a sled if you want to prepare for a pulling content. In connection with pulling is flipping but for that you'll probably are looking for a real-world equivalent.
Squats: In relation to preparing for the squatting competition the best longterm option is to do each of the variations of squats you will want to reach every single muscle. That way you'll be prepared for the increasing weight squats or squats for reps or anything competition throws at you. Switch up between back squats and front squats to acquire as much area covered as possible.
Deadlifts: The main thing about deadlift practice is basically that you are going to want to practice your grip as much as the muscle it requires to lift things. Train your grip strength with wide barbell grips and merely get used to picking heavy stuff up up and running.
Loading: The last strongman exercise that one could be preparing for may be the loading challenge. You'll be buying heavy objects and moving them a short distance away, usually up high on a shelf of sorts. This could be done with atlas stones nevertheless, you can find a substitute and use with it to simulate almost how the loading will go. But you need to make sure that you lift it just like you would a stone competing, that it is the right weight for anything you are training for understanding that your "practice stone" is about the same size and shape.

The Axis saxophone quartet is a new project – this UK debut was only its fourth gig. The concert was also the first of the Wigmore Hall's Jazz Series under the curatorship of Joshua Redman, a member of the quartet. It was a lovely gig, resonating with warmth, personality and the strong bond of four saxophonists who cut their teeth in early 1990s New York and whose careers have overlapped ever since.
The generous single set opened with a rising flutter through a leading chord, there was a rough baritone riff and soft cadences smoothly delivered. Soloists edged to the fore, scattered notes and seamlessly dropped back to ensemble duties. The background swelled, the riff returned, and a final flutter called a halt.
Most compositions were similarly episodic and even those that sustained a single mood were rich in textural contrast. An early waltz had chiming tones, but soon a solitary baritone was plodding with soulful intent. And much more was to come. Later in the set, a single note was expanded to brass band sonorities, changed tempo and morphed into a wickedly awkward riff. Tossed back and forth, it acted as background for a dramatic highlight chase.
Such close attention to detail could easily have drowned the spontaneous spark, but each saxophonist has a strong will and trademark sound. And the ample space for solo improvisation, not to mention the Wigmore's crystal-clear acoustics, laid bare every breath and nuance.
Chris Cheek was a gruff, disciplined and riffy baritone anchor. He switched to tenor late in the set, his round sound and bluesy turn of phrase a marked contrast to the oblique airy lines of Mark Turner's soprano and tenor. Redman was urbane and centred while Chris Potter attacked head-on with a clearly articulated rush – both played across the saxophone range.
That said, solo highlights were rare. An early unaccompanied Potter alto solo drew applause – quickly dampened by a whisper-quiet ensemble – and a zigzagging tenor chase between Cheek and Turner stood out. But this gig was more about gorgeous sound, the demanding score and exuberant musicianship roaming freely from abstract jazz to chamber-music romance and, for an encore, a Sonny Rollins blues, "Tenor Madness".

'True Blood': Is Bill Sookie's biggest threat?
Sunday's (August 8) episode of "True Blood" took us another step forward in Sookie's (Anna Paquin) evolution into whatever she is. And from what we can tell, whatever that is, it's going to rock.We appreciate when a TV show doesn't rush a character arc. "True Blood's" writers have definitely been evolving Sookie slowly, so that whatever seemingly powerful being she is revealed to be is believable to us the viewers. We've already seen she has a tremendous ability to love. The male characters are naturally drawn to her. We've witnessed her bravery. We've witnessed short, but well-placed, bursts of her "microwave fingers." And in this episode she showed off her sheer physicality (without using any of those cool powerful bursts of energy we like so much) in a fight against Alcide's (Joe Manganiello) were-ex, Debbie (Brit Morgan). And if we may be so bold, she knows how to handle her vampire sex. The imagery of Sookie on top of Bill (Stephen Moyer) with her hand on his throat is not lost on us. Once again, not only hot, but very skillful foreshadowing. It all amounts to meaning Sookie is going to be a powerful being, indeed. There are at least a few people who seem to know what she is. And from next week's previews, Bill will admit that he does, too. Yet, Eric (Alexander Skarsgard) warns her (via a message from Sookie's cousin) that she shouldn't trust Bill. Then, there's Claudine (Lara Pulver), the whimsical being from Sookie's near-death dream in the last episode, who also warned her not to let Bill "steal her light."Do you think there's something to the warnings? Despite her growing powers, could Bill be Sookie's biggest threat?Follow Zap2it and TheRealJethro on Twitter and Zap2it on Facebook for the latest TV, movie and celebrity news.Photo credit: HBO

Emirates NBD Advances on First-Quarter Profit Bets: Dubai MoverZahra Hankir
Emirates NBD PJSC rose for the third time in four days amid bets first-quarter profit improved and as the largest bank in the United Arab Emirates was said to sell 10-year bonds.
The shares increased 2.5 percent to 4.05 dirhams at the close in Dubai, bringing a rally this year to 42 percent. Emirates NBD was the biggest gainer on the benchmark DFM General Index, which rose 0.2 percent. The Dubai-based lender may sell subordinated tier two bonds, two people familiar with the plan said yesterday, declining to be identified because the information is private.
U.A.E. banks are showing signs of recovery after the global credit crisis weakened lending, crimped investment banking and spurred loan defaults. Emirates NBD's fourth-quarter profit more than tripled and the bank may post a 9.6 percent increase in 2013 net income, according to the median estimate of four analysts on Bloomberg.
"Profit prospects are good and the stock has a high dividend yield," said Nabil Farhat, partner at Abu Dhabi-based Al Fajer Securities. The bond sale "will help the bank meet its future finance commitments."
Emirates NBD may raise more than $1 billion from private bond placements this year to reduce funding costs and tap investor appetite for Dubai credit, Tony Bush, managing director for global funding, said in January.
The stock has a 12-month dividend yield of 6.2 percent, compared with 3.8 percent for Dubai's gauge, data compiled by Bloomberg show. The share rally this year compares with a gain of 2.5 percent for Dubai Islamic Bank PJSC and outpaces an advance of 17 percent for the DFM General Index.
Four analysts recommend investors buy the shares of Emirates NBD, while three have a hold rating and one says sell, according to data compiled by Bloomberg.

You may not have heard of it but Sesame is one of the UK's largest network of financial advisers. It was in the news this week after being slapped with a £6m fine for poor advice and controls.
This mainly related to the selling of "death" bonds. These were the morally questionable investments which relied on the payouts from life-insurance policies of people who had a short life expectancy.
Happily, many of the policyholders live longer than expected, which meant the people hoping to profit from their deaths failed to do so. However, Sesame's staff were accused by the City watchdog of failing to tell investors of the risks involved. Hence the fine.
But it shouldn't put you off getting advice. The secret is to find a decent adviser says Adam Price of Vouchedfor.co.uk.
"The fine given to Sesame shows that there is still work to do. It shows not all advisers are equal, and reaffirms that people need to be rigorous when choosing one."

On Mother's Day while most mothers were being served breakfast in bed, three entrepreneurial Australian women are not only enjoying being pampered by their families for the day, but also taking much needed time out from their building 'Mumpires' as they expand their existing businesses into franchise or license models, despite the global recession.
The economic slump has proved fatal for many businesses, but that doesn't mean there aren't still opportunities out there.

Colorado State at Fresno State | Game 26
Colorado State (9-16, 5-7 MW) continues its two-game road stretch at Fresno State (18-8, 10-3), looking to avenge a loss from earlier this season on Wednesday. Tipoff is scheduled for 8 p.m. MST at the Save Mart Center.
After a tough loss Saturday at New Mexico, the Rams are hoping to rebound with a win against the Bulldogs. Colorado State has a chance to move into a tie for fifth place in the conference standings.
With the return of two-time all-conference selection, Sam Martin, and the reigning Mountain West Sixth Player of the Year, Meghan Heimstra, the Rams will look to improve upon last season's 13-17 record. Sophomore Ladeyah Forte leads Colorado State from the point guard position. She finished second in assist-to-turnover ratio in the MW in her rookie year.
The game will be broadcast live on AM 1410 KIIX. Matt Wozniak, now in his fourth season with the Rams, calls all the action. Live game video will also be available for all non-televised home contests via Rams All-Access subscription on CSURams.com, and for the first time, fans will be able to listen to every Rams' game for free on Rams All-Access.
Scouting Report on Fresno State
- The Bulldogs have lost two of their past three matchups at home to first place San Diego State on Feb. 9, 74-49, and last place Nevada on Feb. 20, 60-54.
- In the loss to Nevada, the Bulldogs shot a season-low 28.4 percent from the field. Preseason all-MW player Ki-Ki Moore was the team's only player with more than eight points. She finished with 20.
- Fresno State most recently notched a win on the road at Boise State, 83-65. Four players tallied double figures and the team converted a season-high 14 three pointers to the Broncos' four.
- The Bulldogs' two biggest strengths are their steals per game: 12.8, ranking fifth in the nation, and fouls per game: 11.8, ranking sixth. Ki-Ki Moore (3.08), Taylor Thompson (2.88) and Rosie Moult (2.76) all rank in the top 50 in the country in steals per contest.
- Moore is the Bulldogs' leading scorer, averaging 16.9 points per game. She is joined by Moult (12.4), Alex Sheedy (10.4) and Thompson (10.3) for those averaging double figures. Moore has hit 20-plus points in each of their past three games.
- Defensively, Moore and Sheedy lead the pack with 6.1 and 5.7 rebounds per game, respectively.
Series vs. the Bulldogs
- Wednesday's meeting between Colorado State and Fresno State will be the 11th game between the two schools.
- The Rams are 8-3 vs. the Bulldogs overall with a 5-0 record in Fresno.
- Colorado State's last visit to the Save Mart Center was on Jan. 23, 1997.
- This is Head Coach Ryun Williams second contest vs. Fresno State, with an 0-1 record in his career. Until this season, Williams had never played against any team in the MW, aside from CSU.
A win will...
- Allow the Rams a chance to move into a tie for fifth place in the conference standings with UNLV. The Rams are currently in sixth place.
- Improve the Rams' record against the Bulldogs to 9-3 all-time and a perfect 6-0 in Fresno.
- Give CSU its third road win of the season and its third in MW play. The Rams haven't won more than two games away from Moby in league play since 2002.
Last time vs. Fresno State (Jan. 27)
Colorado State may have put the first points on the board, but Fresno State was quick to gain, and keep, the lead over the Rams. Colorado State lost, 69-58, at Moby Arena.
Early turnovers ignited a 17-0 run early in the first half. Colorado State (5-13, 1-4 MW) snapped the streak at the 12:23 mark in first frame. In the half, CSU turned the ball over 13 times, as opposed to the Bulldogs (13-6, 5-1 MW) five turnovers. On turnovers alone, Fresno State tallied 27 points throughout the game the most since the Rams played Tulsa on Dec. 8 who recorded 28 points.
In the second half, the Rams reduced their turnovers, allowing only two for the half.
Sophomore Ladeyah Forte came off the bench and led the Rams with 12 points, a perfect six-for-six at the free-throw line, a career-high. Forte also tallied two assists and two rebounds.
Junior Alicia Nichols came off the bench and made every shot that she took, recording 10 points and an assist. Colorado State's bench scored 25 points. Freshman Caitlin Duffy scored 11 points, one rebound and one steal.
The Rams shot a season high free-throw percentage of .933 with senior Meghan Heimstra, Forte and Nichols all shot perfectly from the line.
Colorado State's tough defense caused Fresno State to tally four shot-clock violations.
The Rams shot a better percentage than the Bulldogs at.487, but they shot a season-low 39 field-goals.
Up Next
Colorado State is back at Moby for its final two home games of the season starting with Boise State on Saturday. The Broncos (10-15, 3-9) are two games behind the Rams in seventh place in the standings. Tipoff is scheduled for 2 p.m. MT.

BOILING SPRING LAKES—South Brunswick got a fall from Jeromy Roundtree in the final match to beat West Brunswick 38-34 in a Waccamaw Conference dual Jan. 27.
The victory between the two 3A teams clinched a spot in the NCHSAA playoffs.
South entered the dual 23-5 for the season. It had swept eight straight duals in its last two tournaments. West entered 8-8, but it was coming off a tournament in which it had two champions and four wrestlers as consolation finalists.
Home school students interested in becoming involved in Future Farmers of America (FFA) can attend an informative meeting from 4-6 p.m. Tuesday, Feb. 2, at the Bladen County Extension Center, Powell-Melvin Building, located at 450 Smith Circle Drive in Elizabethtown.
Kelly Hill, a home school parent and volunteer, said although membership is available to home school students, there is no local chapter.
"It's hard to have officers," Hill said. "It's hard to come together as a unit as a public school would."
It is it just me or is every movie preview for the same two movies—with different actors and a slightly different script?
The first type I can't get away from is a cloying romantic comedy in which a serious, big city career woman has to leave her modern, uppity ways behind and settle down in a small town with an honest, blue collar, regular Joe to be happy and realize what life's really all about.
As temperatures continue to fall across Brunswick County, Saturday's precipitation is turning into ice. Roadways are slick, as are bridges and overpasses.
The Brunswick County Sheriff's Office is urging drivers to use caution and, if possible, to stay off area roadways.
For a short time Saturday, the Cape Fear Memorial Bridge, which handles some traffic flowing out of Brunswick into New Hanover County, was closed because of icy conditions and numerous wrecks. By about 8 p.m. Saturday, the bridge had reopened.
North Brunswick, held to six points in the first quarter, went on to outscore West 60-41 in a 66-55 Waccamaw Conference victory Jan. 26 at West.
West Brunswick rallied from a nine-point deficit to force overtime before losing 58-56 to East Bladen in a Waccamaw Conference boys' basketball game Friday night.
The Trojans held the Eagles scoreless in the final five minutes, 15 seconds of the fourth quarter in rallying from a 43-34 deficit. West had a chance to win the game in regulation, as it had the ball after a timeout with 3.4 seconds left, but East Bladen blocked the shot.
Icy conditions are expected to develop throughout Brunswick County as temperatures drop into the 20s Saturday night.
Cold air is expected to move south and east on a chilling northwest wind changing rain in the area into freezing rain. Precipitation is expected throughout Saturday afternoon before ending later Saturday night. A freezing rain advisory is in effect until midnight.
The National Weather Service has indicated ice is expected to accumulate on surfaces such as trees, power lines, highway bridges and overpasses. Less than a tenth of an inch of ice is forecasted.
Brunswick County Commissioners will discuss a proposed public housing project at their next meeting, Monday, Feb. 1.
Brunswick County Attorney Huey Marshall said if the proposed project is approved, the county would commit public funds to the project, but would not own the housing project.
The Brunswick County Chamber of Commerce has rescheduled its second annual Brunswick Stew Cook-Off due to the current weather forecast for this coming Saturday.
The event has been moved to 10 a.m.-4 p.m. the following Saturday, Feb. 6, in Rourk Woods in Shallotte (same location).
The cook-off committee decided Wednesday to reschedule the event since rain, winds, low temperatures and possibly even snow are anticipated.
"We cannot ask for the community to come out to an event in this type of weather," chamber president Cathy Altman said.

This is your resource to discuss support topics with your peers, and learn from each other.
I just got my Curve 8330 yesterday and ever since then I've been trying to sync my devices. I want to use the transfer device wizard and transfer everything (except apps) from my 8830 to my new 8330. When I connect my 8830 it finds it and detects the PIN, however when I plug in my 8330 it says Unknown Device.
I've tried this on two different computers one PC and my Mac with boot camp. I'm running XP Pro.
Does anyone have any ideas on what's up??
While I'm sorry to say that we don't yet have a feature to transfer the data directly from one BlackBerry to another in PocketMac for the Macintosh OS users, I did notice that your new BlackBerry is one that will require a driver update in order to connect if you plan to sync inside the Macintosh environment in the future. This won't fix your connection problem in the Windows environment... but I just wanted to let you know in case you eventually want to move to the Mac environment.
You would find it on the download page: http://na.blackberry.com/eng/services/desktop/mac.
It sounds like as a Windows user you may not have already downloaded the first one, under the heading "PocketMac v4.0.20b for BlackBerry." If you plan to sync in the Mac environment, go ahead and download it and Install that first.
Since you have one of the newest devices (like the 8110, 8120, 8130, 8310 or 8330), you would also need to download the patch that allows you to connect to those as well. That patch is on the same page, under the heading, "PocketMac Driver update -- DriverUpdate.dmg." Install that AFTER you have installed the main PocketMac Program. Best of success to you!
I just did the same thing (upgraded from 8830 to 8330). You have to re-install BB Desktop using the disk that came with the Curve. I had the Curve plugged into the USB port when I did it. That will load the drivers for the Curve. Then you can use the transfer wizard and it will work fine.
Good luck,

Tropical Fish Keeping - Aquarium fish care and resources (http://www.tropicalfishkeeping.com/forum.php)
- Beginner Freshwater Aquarium (http://www.tropicalfishkeeping.com/beginner-freshwater-aquarium/)
- - Stocking a 20 gallon tank! (http://www.tropicalfishkeeping.com/beginner-freshwater-aquarium/stocking-20-gallon-tank-54208/)
Stocking a 20 gallon tank!
So my brother just got a 20 gallon and he wanted help stocking it. This is what we have for our first pickup, is this ok?
1 Rainbow or Red Tail shark
2 Dwarf Gouramis
The tank does not have live plants. Will the sharks be fine with the gouramis?
The dwarf gouramis sound like a good idea!! Im not sure but the shark mayneed a larger tank further down the line...
But nice choices...:-):-):-)
I donot recommend a shark for a 20g. Have a read of the fish profile for the Red Tailed Shark [click on the shaded name], the minimum tank size is given and it explains why. Also note these fish can be aggressive.
While you're at it, check the profile of the Dwarf Gourami, there are some concerns with this species.
Why should it have a bigger tank? It didnt give a reason just said lots of hiding spots
Bigger tank because the Red Tailed Shark grows to six inches. Please read the full profile.
First, fish grow throughout their lives, unlike humans. As it grows externally, it is also developing internally. If the surrounding water is not sufficient, the internal development can be deformed, what is called "stunting," and the fish will have endless health issues and proably early death. It is not fair to the fish to subject it to this.
Second, fish "personalities" are affected by their environment. Recent scientific studies have now confirmed what many of us have believed for years on this issue. Tank size--both the physical dimensions but also the water conditions due to those dimensions--affect the fish psychologically. Aggression is often much greater as a result. And this means the fish is stressed out by its lack of adequate "space", so it literally "takes it out" on the tank. Similar to you being locked in a small room permanently with no means of escape. That is what you do to the fish.
So, "temporary" means very limited time before the fish is placed in a suitably-sized tank so that it can properly develop and be normal and have a healthy, normal life. I would therefore not even consider such a potentially-large fish for a 20g unless you have a 4-foot tank ready. And by the way, a shrimp would not last with a shark in the same tank.
ok so what else can I put with the 2 dwarf gouramis that will work with a snail that is maybe around 3 or 4 inches
It's tough to tell you that since the gouramis get that length, they can be aggressive, and your tank is pretty small you probably shouldn't get another fish that size. I'm rocking a 29g with 3 dwarf gouramis and a largish school of smaller rasboras. I'd suggest something like that.
Keeping big fish is for big tanks unfortunately.
I also think rasbora would be good, the medium sized ones (which I suspect is what burnsbabe meant) of the Trigonostigma genus (the Harlequin Rasbora, Lambchop Rasbora, Hengels Rasbora). These are quiet fish and do not require a lot of swimming room; they must be in a group of 6. You can click on the names to see the profile of each species.
Or, some of the "smallish" characins (tetra) that also are not active swimmers. Check the characins profiles for ideas, making note of the individual fish needs in tank size, numbers, etc.

text: Travis Pastrana Chalks Up First Rally WinDavid Thomas5/01/06 6:17pmFiled to: News: RacingRallyTravis PastranaWrc0EditPromoteShare to KinjaToggle Conversation toolsGo to permalink This image was lost some time after publication. The former motocross superstar won his first race Saturday at the Rim of The World Rally outside of Los Angeles. Pastrana won by a significant margin, but that's probably because this wasn't part of the WRC circuit. That means there wasn't much competition besides Pastrana's own teammate Ken Block, who came in second. There is some upside to this win though. Pastrana gets an ego boost and the two drivers get familiar with the route most likely to be used in this summer's X Games Rally competition. The marketing folks know where the money is that's for sure. It's on ESPN during the X Games and they want their drivers to get some air time. Get it? Air time? X Games? Ahhh... nevermind.

The Autism for Help Village project was born as a seed concept during the World Bank/Urgent Evoke season 1. Since that inception, these are the steps taken for this project to become a full fledged reality. 1. Achievement: AfhVP was chosen as one of the winning evokations by none other than the World Bank Institute, and called "exemplary" and "outstanding." 2. Achievement: The Project Leader was certified as a legendary hero in social innovation and entrepreneurship, in addition to becoming a founding member of WBI's Urgent Evoke. 3. The AfhVProject has been chosen to be featured in this Evoke Participation Global Giving fund raising challenge. 4. The AfhVProject has garnered support and volunteers from all over India, Lebanon, the Netherlands, and USA, to name only a few countries, and has attracted active collaboration and participation from members of other UrgentEvoke Social Innovation projects and UrgentEvoke's members. 5. AfhVProject has started a facebook group which has gathered 126 members (climbing steadily), and is becoming a lively space for raising awareness on autism besides discusing its own future. 6. Autism for help Village Project also has a presence on twitter, blogspot and google buzz. 7. The project has developed a logo, sent out emails to prospective donors, and answered comments, and questions from the overwhelmingly positive community response to AfhVP. 8. The AfhVProject has approached potential donors and participants among friends, family, relatives, colleagues, student communities, et als, of core team members, and many have agreed to support the AfhVP, through direct involvement, volunteering, as well as money donations to the extent that they are able, by those who are able. 9. Autism for help Village Project has made enquiries regarding registration as a full fledged 501c3 Non Profit Organization (NPO). 10. To form the NPO, the AfhVProject is first gathering the supporters who will be at the core of the AfhVP movement, and considering the formation of the Board, and selection of the main office Staff. 11. The Board will consist of representatives who will work as leading consultants or actively in the field, either in India, or from abroad. 12. Autism for help Village Project has accomplished this in one month, July 2010, without funding. Help support our effort to make the AfhVP a reality, to serve, as a beginning, 50 autistic people in South India.
We completed the Evoke Participation GlobalGiving challenge successfully. We were one of the six teams out of 25 to do so. We raised $3,020 dollars and have also got $350 dollars as incentives from GlobalGiving. We got more than fifty comments and raised the required money from 64 donations from 58 donors. We also got 257 facebook likes, not to mention nearly 150 facebook shares and 13 tweets. All this shows the need for help in this area. And that we have many dear and genuine well wishers and supporters like you all over the world, dear donors and commenters. Our facebook group has 175 members. All this is only a beginning though. Our real target is helping the autistic people by creating a home away from home for them. For that we need to register as an organization now and do several other things; many, many other things. "The woods are lovely, dark and deep But I have promises to keep and miles to go before I sleep." said Robert Frost So do we. Please continue helping us. Thank you once again from our hearts.
1. Our facebook group has 161 members now. The membership is still climbing steadily with a base of sincere, deeply interested Indians and people from all around the world. 2. Our project has been linked to http://www.RespectedOpinions.com/ and has been twittered and facebooked by the forum's founder, Nicholas Nagao. 3.. Since commencing the Global Giving challenge (August 1) through today, 10 August, AfhVP has raised $1240, from 19 donors, and received 40 comments, 40 votes, and has won the $200 incentive awards from Global Giving for crossing the first threshold of expectations required of a potentially successful project. The AfhVP also has received 162 facebook "likes". We have almost crossed the third threshold too, by our calculations, which was to raise 300 dollars or get ten comments.
Manmeet Singh of GG says: Have you noticed that two projects on the leaderboard are blue? These are "champion" projects because they've raised over $500, secured over 10 donors and have more than 20 comments.
AND WE ARE ONE OF THEM ! CHECK IT OUT HERE. ROOT FOR US. WE'RE GETTING READY TO TAKE OFF. http://www.globalgiving.org/leaderboards/evoke/ If we get just one more donation of ten dollars we will become a heroic project.
We want to thank all of you for helping us get this far. We would also like to ask you for further support, networking with your friends and colleagues, so that we can get the remaining $1800 required from 31 donors, and 10 votes and comments as quickly as possible. Sure of your help and resultant success, we hope to continue to work together with you to make this project a resounding success.
Please be sure to continue leaving your comments, offering your thoughts and constructive feedback.

Hi! I'm Kate, a licensed massage therapist in Texas. I have my own website about massage therapy and a part-time massage therapy practice. I use both table and chair in my practice, helping people relax and feel better. It is very rewarding! My practice consists of outcalls to people's homes and businesses.
How to become a massage therapist? My personal experience
If you would like to become a massage therapist, let me encourage you but at the same time let me be honest with you. There is a lot of study and hard work involved. Lots of anatomy and physiology. I used to stay up until midnight studying for my weekly tests.
You also have to have a lot of time to practice the clinical portion, which means actually massaging family and friends. Over and over and over until you have graduated. They will get tired of it after a while as they do have lives! It did not take long for my family to hide when I got home from school. They loved having a full-body massage as I learned more and more but when I had to practice just a portion many times for a test, and they could not move from my table, they got bored.
Once I finished and got my school certification, I felt wonderful inside. When my instructor gave me my final grades, I was elated–on cloud nine for days!
Taking the Texas State Board Exam
Four months later, I had to take the Texas State Board Exam. Many more hours of studying and practicing went on during those four months. Then two long weeks of waiting to find out whether or not I passed. I did! I am proud to say that I am now a Licensed Massage Therapist!
