I agree, Chrysler Financial can't reconcile payments made by their customers. I leased a car in August of 2007 and my father co-signed with me. In July of 2009 he filed bankruptcy due to my mom being ill with cancer and couldn't afford the medical bills. He made sure that my name was clear of the claim with his lawyer. I always paid my payments on time through their website with no problems.
However, after my father's claim went through they discontinued my allowance to make payments online. With that being in effect, I was forced to call and make a payment (which occurs a processing fee) or mail a check. Each time that I tried to explain to them that I had nothing to do with the bankruptcy they didn't want to hear anything about it. I fell behind in the Summer of 2009 with payments due to trying to help my parents out with medical bills. However, I caught up and at the end of 2009. I made 12 months of payments.
I have my bank statements to prove the electronic payments and checks that were mailed. I made a payment in January of 2010 and then missed February. On 3/18/10 I called to catch up on my payments and the representative told me that I owed January of 2010. I asked for them to send me the statements to show that they have the months mixed up and I'm 30 days late, no 60 days. Their response was they couldn't discuss with me because of the bankruptcy.
Once again, I tried to explain that I had nothing to do with that claim and I should be getting statements and a fair explanation as to why they keep screwing up my payment history. In any event, I made a payment of $758.00 to be up to date on my account. On the morning of 3/19 my Jeep was repossessed. When I called Chrysler they told me that the representative forgot to cancel the order and that I was indeed up to date on my account. But, I need to call their redemption center.
I call them, they then tell me that I owe what is left on the loan? When I question that and prove that I made payments the prior day they then tell me that they need to review the account with a manager and someone will get back to me within an hour. Never did. Called three more times from 8 am - 1 pm. Kept telling me that they couldn't give me any information on what was being decided.
Finally called again and they told me they reviewed the account and that even though I made the payment on 3/18, I still owed March's payment (which was only 2 days late at this point). So much inconsistency it's mind blowing. They then proceeded to tell me that in order to get the car back I had to pay the repo fees + March payment + a copy of mine and my father's proof of income + copy of the insurance policy with Chrysler as the Lien holder + 6 recommendation letters. I seriously blew up.
I was willing to make an extra payment if that meant getting my car back (even though my bank statements show I'm up to date). But I will NOT be bullied into providing paper work and extra fees just to delay their process and Win more money out of my pocket. I have all of my statements printed, copies of cleared checks to prove I'm up to date. Additionally, I have an appointment to see a lawyer on Monday night.
I much rather pay the lawyer fees and get the car back than pay Chrysler anymore money that is not owed to them at this time. They want to fight, I'm ready. I will go all the way to the Attorney General's Office on this one. They had no reason to repo my car. They screwed up, the repo guy never got the canceled notice and now they want me to pay the damages. NO WAY.
RAYVILLE, MISSOURI -- In march/april 2007, my 22 year old daughter purchased a used 1999 Honda crv from a local dealer and used Chrysler's financial services to finance the balance she owed on the vehicle. She is a full-time student who has consistently paid her monthly account bills on time or before they were due. On November 26, 2007, my daughter was involved in an automobile accident. She is/was fully insured by state farm insurance, who reviewed the accident and later (e.g., within a week) deemed the vehicle a total loss.
Within approximately a week, on behalf of my daughter I made contact with Chrysler financial services to notify them of the accident and to make them aware that, at the time, the insurance company was wanting to "total" the vehicle. At that time, I spoke with a representative in the insurance resolution group (male representative, foreign accent – contacted through #800-556-8172) who assured me that should we choose to retain the vehicle (e.g., salvage), take the insurance settlement minus salvage, and have the vehicle repaired to "factory standards" as per state farm, that Chrysler financial services would maintain my daughter's loan with the vehicle as collateral and that my daughter would not be required to pay off the loan in full, but could continue to make payments.
Currently, her balance is approximately $1,700. During the course of resolving the accident issues with state farm and the collision repair shops, I contacted Chrysler financial services two more times to verify that the information I had been given was accurate so that we (e.g., my daughter and I) could make a final decision to either retain or repair the vehicle. On all three occasions, I spoke with the same individual at Chrysler who assured us all three times that there would not be a problem, even with the insurance company wanting to declare the vehicle a "total loss."
Furthermore, this individual stated that he would note my daughter's account with the status so that it would be referenceable for future representatives. On all three occasions, this individual also indicated that what would be needed for Chrysler financial to continue to maintain the loan would be: The original state farm insurance estimate, a work order from the collision shop, a letter of satisfaction from my daughter following the repairs to the vehicle stating that it had been repaired to her satisfaction, the insurance settlement check, which was made out to my daughter, myself, and Chrysler financial. The representative assured us that Chrysler would sign the check so that we could pay the shop for the repairs.
Again, this individual stated on all three occasions that these were acceptable to Chrysler financial and that there would be no consequences against my daughter's loan status. On January 7, 2008, we (my daughter and I) sent the above referenced items to Chrysler financial via express mail. The items were delivered on January 8, 2008 at 6:53 am and signed for by **. As we had not received the signed check from Chrysler financial as of Friday, January 11, 2008, we contacted Chrysler financial and were told that they had never received the items listed above. At that time, we used our tracking number with the post office and verified that they had indeed received the above items.
Further attempts to speak with representatives within Chrysler financial netted the same "we don't have it answer," until late Friday when I was finally able to reach **, who said she could not discuss the account with me until my daughter ** verified that I had access to her account. On Tuesday, 1/15/08, at approximately 2:00 p.m. (Central time), my daughter and I again contacted Chrysler financial to determine the status of the check as we had not received any information from Chrysler financial regarding our previous inquiries. We were again told that Chrysler did not have the check, to which we responded that they did indeed as per the post office, at which time the representative looked again and noticed that the check was "held up" as non-endorsable.
As per further investigation, the representative (e.g., ** and then the supervisor **) told us that Chrysler financial would not honor their original agreement with us (as stated above) because the insurance company had deemed the vehicle a total loss. I again reiterated that we had already spoken with a representative (the same individual) on all three occasions who had said that Chrysler would indeed honor the agreement given the items listed above. We were passed from rude representative to representative and I finally requested to speak with a supervisor regarding the manner. After being disconnected several times, I was finally transferred to ** voice mail and received a return call from her at approximately 5:30 pm.
Upon speaking with **, I was again told that Chrysler would not honor the agreement as stated above because the insurance company had deemed the vehicle a total loss. I explained to ** that we (e.g., my daughter and I) had made the decision regarding the vehicle based upon false information provided by her department and that I did not feel it should be our responsibility to absorb the consequences given that her department did not have the wherewithal to review their own policy and verify that policy. I furthermore indicated that the vehicle, which has indeed been repaired to "factory standards" is certainly worth the balance on the loan as a collateral vehicle and that state farm is containing to provide full coverage insurance on the vehicle based upon those repairs.
I further iterated that based upon the information provided by her department, the vehicle had been repaired and that there was now an outstanding $6,166 balance due to the collision shop, the amount of the check which Chrysler financial is refusing to sign. ** continued to be combative and rude, stated that we should "read our contract," and made excuses for Chrysler financial's ineptness and false information regarding the repairs to the vehicle. At that time, I asked ** to speak with her supervisor, which she declined, stating that "there is nobody else who can or will speak with you."
I told her that this was unacceptable, demanded that the check be returned, and stated that my daughter would not be paying off the balance on the loan, but that she would continue to make timely payments on the loan with Chrysler until the matter was resolved. Furthermore, I informed ** that I would be going well above her head within the Chrysler corporation to resolve the matter. ** then stated that she was going to close the account and report my daughter to the collections department for not paying the loan. To my knowledge, Chrysler financial cannot do this as they have accepted my daughter's payments and have "cashed" those payments each and every time.
Given the information above and the inadequacy and inept behavior of the insurance resolution group, I do not feel that my daughter (who is a full time student) should have to relinquish $1,700 of the insurance settlement check to pay off a loan that is in good standing nor do I feel that Chrysler financial should "stronghold" and "threaten" her or the status of this loan to achieve its own wishes. Furthermore, based upon the repairs performed by the shop as well as assessments by state farm, the repaired vehicle is more than worth the balance of the loan in a collateral situation. Ultimately, however, this situation would not have arisen had Chrysler financial provided us with accurate information from the beginning.
This most certainly would have made a difference in how the matter was addressed and would not have placed us in a financial hardship pending coming up with $1,700 to cover the loan. Not only has Chrysler financial demonstrated less than acceptable customer service relations, they have provided false and fraudulent information to the customer, failed to investigate and understand their own policies, and are now covering their own inept "asses" by punishing the customer. We are certainly more than willing to honor our loan and continue timely payments to Chrysler corporation, but will not suffer the consequences that have arisen due to Chrysler's own stupidity.
The customer should never be punished for an employee's inability to comprehend, understand, and/or investigate a matter such that the matter escalates and spins out of control to the detriment of a) the customer and b) Chrysler financials further interactions with potential customers. We have tried to locate an email address to complain to parties that are not customer service and have been completely unsuccessful. I guess Chrysler must have something to hide, eh? Note: anybody considering using Chrysler financial to finance their vehicle should definitely consider going somewhere else! Chrysler financial does not care about the customer, is willing to lie to the customer rather than accurately present facts, and will bully at all costs!
On June 29th, 2007 we returned our leased dodge caravan to our local Chrysler dealership. At this time the dealership inspected the vehicle with a fine tooth comb. The van did have a small dent in the rear quarter panel and we did point this out and covered the financial cost of repairing this damage. Besides this dent there was no other damage and the dealership signed us off of the van. We then proceeded to sign a new lease on a new van.
All seemed fine for five months, when we received a telephone call from Chrysler Canada financial on Nov 28th 2007, asking us why we had not yet responded to the letter they had sent us and how did we plan on paying for the $7,000.00 worth of hail damage on the vehicle. I advised them we had received no such letter and more importantly that when we handed the van in there was no hail damage on the van. Well they insisted there was and that this matter was in the hands of Chrysler credit collections department! I again told this lady that we had never received any such letter and would she please fax a copy of this letter off to me asap.
Well that fax was never sent and it took a week of constant calling our dealership before we were able to get a response back from Chrysler collections. We did not have possession of the van for almost 5 months and therefore no care or control of the van. I gather there was indeed a lot of hail damage on the van which clearly happened once Chrysler took possession of the van. What it all boiled down too was Chrysler Canada was not interested in follow the paper trail on this van and arbitrarily decided that we, the lessors of the van would pay for the damage.
Be very careful when you hand back a leased vehicle. Do not take the dealership's word for anything. Take pictures of your returned vehicle and have the dealership sign off on those pictures. Chrysler is interested in one thing and one thing only.. the almighty buck at any cost and to hell with the customer. Unless that customer hasn't yet made the deal, then they care a whole lot. Once the deal is made.. to heck with them!
DALLAS, TEXAS -- In August 2004 I leased a 2005 Chrysler Pacifica from Chrysler Financial for 3 yrs. On July 30, 2007 I decided to purchase the vehicle. I went to a local bank and refinanced the vehicle. They sent a cashier's check to Chrysler on July 30, 2007. They check cleared on August 10th. On September 4, 2007 I received a letter from Chrysler stating that I was in default of my loan (that had a ZERO balance) because they needed the "Vehicle Purchase Package". This package was sent via Fed Ex to my previous address.
The finance department had my new address, but evidently the lease area did not. On September 4th, 2007, I dealt with **, Lease Maturity Advisor-Remarketing Operation. She sent me via email the package. I completed it and faxed it back to her. I know she received it because she sent me an email bank. The copy of my driver's license did not make the fax for some reason, but I just found that out today.
On October 10th, myself and the loan officer at the bank where I refinanced both left multiple messages for ** regarding where the title to my car was. No response!! This morning at 6 AM, Chrysler sent a tow company to repossess my car that is paid off!! They said I owed $66!! I have been on the telephone all day dealing with this. I finally got a hold of ** and she told me that she did not call me or email me to tell me that she did not receive the copy of my license because and I quote "I am not her customer".
She said that she has lots of other customers to deal with and that the representative that handled my account had made calls (to my old telephone number). The funny thing is that my name, address, telephone number, cell phone number, and fax number was on all of the emails that she received from me. I can't get her supervisor to call me back and I just found out that they have now sent a check back to my bank rejecting my pay off that they already cashed!!
They told me that I would have to go through a local dealership to buy my car AGAIN! Are they crazy!! This is the most ridiculous thing I has ever happened to me in my life! I will never deal with Chrysler Financial again! I will never BUY another Chrysler product again because of the way I have been treated! I am outraged at their customer service! If they worked for me, I would fire them!
OMAHA, NEBRASKA -- My lease on my 2007 Jeep Grand Cherokee is coming to an end on April 2, 2009. I was planning on getting another Jeep, but Chrysler Financial stopped doing leases as of August 1, 2008. Since I only lease my cars, I decided to go with a Nissan instead. I just made my last lease payment to Chrysler Financial to fulfill my contract. However, to my surprise, I found out that I still owe $425.
I called Chrysler Financial to find out what this extra 'fee' was for. I was told that since I didn't lease or buy another Chrysler, Jeep or Dodge, I had to pay a $425 disposition fee. I stated that I knew nothing about this fee and asked why the dealership never informed me before I signed the contract. All they said was that they were sorry that no one told me but if they told everyone about the disposition fee, they wouldn't sell any cars.
Then I was told that it was my fault for not reading the contract close enough. One guy I spoke with said, "You must not lease cars very often because every dealership/company has a disposition fee." The Nissan that I just leased is my sixth car and I have NEVER heard of nor have I paid a disposition fee! (FYI: I called Nissan, Toyota and Honda and NONE of these companies have a disposition fee!)
In the end, I will have no choice but to pay the $425 disposition fee since it was stated in a binding contract, I signed it and I refuse to let it affect my credit. However, it is not going to stop me from running my mouth, letting everyone know about the shady business practice Chrysler Financial is conducting! I know I may only be one person, but word of mouth is powerful and I intend to inform as many people as I can so they don't make the same mistake I did!
OKLAHOMA CITY, OKLAHOMA -- My 2007 Dodge Charger I purchased in May 2007 and only had 6,500 miles on it. Well I started noticing small things such as the headlights guts had fallen out inside the head lamp, paint chips, etc. Got those fixed and a few minor scratches that were there when I purchased it. I then was noticing the speedometer would jump from 80 mph to 20 mph and then back to 80 mph without changing the actual speed of the car. About a week ago, as I sat at a light going to lunch, the car sputtered and choked but didn't die (I thought it was going to). I brushed that off thinking it was because the idle dropped too low and then since it didn't die I thought nothing of it.
Sometime Wednesday (Aug. 1, 2007) it started with a squeaking (under the hood). It stopped shortly after it started so I brushed that off too. Nothing happened on Thursday. BUT FRIDAY was a whole new ball game. The car drove fine for the most part but it started squawking and under the hood was rattling like the idler pulley was loose. I turned it off called David Stanley Dodge service and they were closing in 30 minutes. I grabbed the kids, the keys, and headed out there. I started the car back up the noise was gone. SO, I thought great maybe they will tell me nothing is wrong with it.
About 7 miles from home, on the highway, it felt like the transmission was slipping, so I started to pull over and the car died ON THE HIGHWAY. I thought perhaps the serpentine belt came off and I lost power/steering etc. NEVER did a light "ding" come on warning me of any problems. The temp gauge still showed cool. I pulled over and it was so hot it was almost an hour before the roadside service got there. They towed it to DS Dodge and of course they closed 30 minutes ago. So I wouldn't know anything until Saturday.
I called Saturday and they said "well, it won't start." I said "yeah, I know" DUH!!! There is water in the engine! Pouring out antifreeze from somewhere?!? Now I am still waiting the outcome. I sure hope it's covered. Perhaps there should be a CLASS ACTION LAWSUIT if these cars keeps effing up and they continue to blame loyal customers for faulty, crappy products!!!
TULLAHOMA, TENNESSEE -- On May 8 2007 I bought a new Chrysler 300 from Stan McNabb in Tullahoma, TN. The car had 90 miles on it when purchased. 2 Weeks later I had to take it to dealership for vibrations and speed odometer was jumping from 70 to 40. To make a long story short they replaced the torque converter and panel cluster 3 times in 3 months time also had paint defect that they are currently working on as of today... My car has been at dealership a total of 18 days and counting.. Chrysler refuse to give me my money back or replace car.. This is a shady company that treats their customers like crap. I'm taking legal action against them as of last week.
Don't buy a Chrysler. They are junk and customer service are rude.
On June 22 2011, I get a recall paper for parts on my car. It tells me that I can't get car fixed until after July 15 2011. I take it to dealership and they don't have parts. No dealership in 50 mile radius has parts. Call Chrysler they say they don't know when parts will be ready.
I told them that on June 26th I was going down 367 at 75 mph and car just shut itself off. It is not safe for this to happen with my kids in the car. They say just wait till we get parts but we don't know when that will be. They will not help. I'm frustrated, and concerned about driving with my kids in the car.
Luckily the day they this happened no one was near me and I could get to side of road without incident. I may not be lucky next time. I need my car fixed. This is the 2nd recall I have had on this car and I have had it less than one year.
Paid off my truck with an insurance claim. I only owed $1200 and the over payment was in the amount of $5800.. They cashed the check 11/10/10 and I was to have the over payment and title back in 21 days. It's now 12/30/10 and Chrysler still has my $5800 and are unable to tell me when they will send it to me.
I have been told 4 times someone will return my numerous phone calls. I have been told the check is in the mail 3 times and now they simply say they don't know when I will get my $5800 back. I have brought 3 vehicles from Chrysler over the years and I will NEVER USE THEM AGAIN! Companies like this need to go away and our government needs to let them sink!
TULSA, OKLAHOMA -- I have a 2007 PT Cruiser and it has so many problems, I cannot name them all in this review. The engine has been designed to fall apart at 70,000 miles and repairs are a joke. There is nothing under the hood that can be fixed for less than 600 dollars. I didn't know I was buying a BMW, we're just to fix the engine. Any part was going to break the bank. The warranty is a joke. They always find a way around that, or they go out of business and leave you out in the cold. Thank Chrysler for nothing but problems.

Dragonflies and damselflies are aquatic insects found in and around the freshwater streams of Australia. They are probably best known to fly fishing enthusiasts who tie flies to resemble both the flying adult and underwater nymphal life stages. Ecologically, they are an important dietary component of fishes in these streams, and their presence or absence in water bodies is used as a water quality indicator.
The aquatic nymphs (the immature stage of the life cycle) have cylindrical or somewhat flattened elongated bodies with large eyes. The hinged mouth parts can be shot rapidly forward to seize prey. Some of the larger nymphs are well known to anglers, who use them as bait and call them mud-eyes. The adults are vividly coloured strong fliers with large wings that actively hunt other insects during daylight hours.
Damselfly nymphs have a cylindrical abdomen with three leaf-like gills attached to the posterior end. They are found commonly in the still water of ponds and lakes among aquatic vegetation. They are distributed throughout Australia and are found in many other parts of the world. The nymphs capture a wide variety of small invertebrates.
Damselfly nymphPhotographers / Source: John Gooderham & Edward Tsyrlin
When adult damselflies are at rest, they hold their wings parallel to and above their abdomens. They are active predators and maintain territories near water bodies.
An adult damselflyPhotographers / Source: John Gooderham & Edward Tsyrlin
Dragonfly nymphs are often elongated, with flattened mouth parts beneath the head. The abdomen ends in a pyramidal structure rather than external gills (see photo). The gills are internal. Water is pumped through the gills and can be expelled as a jet from the abdomen, enabling the nymph to move rapidly. These nymphs are found in both still and running water, sometimes on the underside of boulders and cobbles in swift-flowing streams. The nymphs are predatory.
Dragonfly nymphPhotographers / Source: John Gooderham & Edward Tsyrlin
The nymphs of both damselflies and dragonflies have aquatic life cycles that last for at least a few months, and more usually for a year. The adults are also quite long-lived and probably spend weeks to months in this phase of the life cycle in Victoria.

Adult dragonflies are generally more sturdily built than adult damselflies and when at rest hold their wings outstretched from their body. They are also active predators and are usually seen near water bodies.

Meeting of Friday, May 10, 2013
1. Attendance. Chancellor Clyde Sakamoto convened the meeting of the Executive Committee at 9:32 a.m. Present were: Nicole Beattie; Interim Vice Chancellor Debasis Bhattacharya; Ann Emmsley; Herbert Feliciano; Kim Gray; Vice Chancellor John McKee; Diane Meyer; Flora Mora; Brian Moto; Deandra Perry; Kī'ope Raymond; Vice Chancellor Alvin Tagomori; Vice Chancellor David Tamanaha; Ray Tsuchiyama; and Susan Wyche.
2. Lāna'i Project. Chancellor Sakamoto reported that UHMC is working on an Upward Bound project proposal for Lāna'i high school students. Lāna'i Resorts asked UHMC to develop a program of summer employment for Lāna'i youth. Next week Susan Wyche and Melissa Boonin of the Upward Bound program will meet with Lāna'i parents. The program will include a combination of training and academic instruction. The program is being developed on a short time schedule to serve between 40-80 students. Students will be engaged in a native bird recovery program and Lāna'i Cultural Center activities. The program also seeks to encourage more Lāna'i youth to consider college.
UHMC is also drafting a more comprehensive set of initial planning proposals for consideration by Lāna'i Resorts. The Chancellor and others will be meeting with company leadership. The goal of these proposals is to create an island that is economically, socially, and environmentally sustainable.
3. Commencement. This evening is the University Center commencement. Sunday (May 12) is UHMC's commencement. Senator Gilbert Keith-Aguiran will be the commencement speaker. Approximately 287 graduates are scheduled to participate. Space will be tight.
4. Legislative Outcomes. UHMC does not yet know the final budget decisions for UHMC. UHMC did not obtain the earmark appropriation that it hoped to get. UHMC administration currently estimates that UHMC may be about $800,000 short next fiscal year, and may have to consider spending reductions as a consequence. Contributing to the projected deficit is the need to pay for contractual faculty salary increases for which no additional General Fund moneys were appropriated. Uncertainty regarding UHMC's budget resulted in a hiring freeze that was instituted earlier this fiscal year. Vice Chancellor Tamanaha discussed the history of UH System and UH Community Colleges funding, and circulated a spreadsheet regarding UHMC budget projections for FY 2014.
The Legislature appropriated $2.25 million for a Molokai Education Center performing arts center and $3.5 million for the Hospitality Academy renovation.
5. Business Travel Involving Personal Time. Flora Mora circulated copies of a policy regarding business travel involving personal time. All persons incorporating personal time travel are advised to consult with departmental support staff before completing travel itineraries. The Committee discussed various experiences and issues relating to travel.
6. Procurement. UHMC administrators are examining more proactive involvement of business staff in advising or guiding procurement to expedite process and make it more efficient.
Vice Chancellors Bhattacharya and Tamanaha discussed price lists.
7. UHMC Strategic Planning. Vice Chancellor McKee thanked all who participated in campus discussions on strategic planning. The UHMC Planning Council will be meeting over the summer to discuss themes and the Strategic Plan, with the goal of sharing a draft with the College at Convocation.
8. WASC Sr. Accreditation. Diane Meyer reported that meetings with WASC representatives went well. WASC is pleased with UHMC's assessments and follow up on assessments. UHMC's report discussed College's weak points, among other topics.
9. Program Admission Requirements. McKee reported on a meeting regarding program admission requirements. Some programs are reviewing possible admission requirements. UHMC is also considering disaggregating student data to identify students who are degree-seeking from those who are not. These topics will be discussed at a joint meeting of academic officers and student affairs officers.
10. Enrollment. Vice Chancellor Tagomori circulated enrollment information. Summer 2013 enrollment is currently down only 11 students from last year. The number of Summer 2013 applications from non-residents and residents is up.
Total Fall 2013 enrollment is currently down 172 from last year, though numbers of Running Start and non-resident students are up. Student semester hours are also down about 10.3%. Total number of applications for Fall 2013 is down about 1.7% from last year.
The total number of unduplicated graduates for Spring 2013 is 569.
11. Retirement. Vice Chancellor Tagomori announced his intention to retire as of the end of the fiscal year. Work is proceeding on a plan of transition. The Committee expressed its gratitude and appreciation for Tagomori's leadership and service to the College.
12. EPSCoR. UHMC will be participating in efforts to renew the University's grant from the National Science Foundation for research. The Chancellor invited the Committee and College for ideas that may be considered for the EPSCoR grant application.
13. Carport/PV Project. UHMC is waiting to hear from JCI and other parties regarding the status of financing for the project.
14. Palauea. Trustee Hulu Lindsey and the Office of Hawaiian Affairs will be holding a community meeting regarding Palauea. OHA now owns the Palauea Cultural Preserve property.

Metastatic pleural tumorTumor - metastatic pleural
Metastatic pleural tumor is a type of cancer that has spread from another organ to the thin membrane (pleura) surrounding the lungs.
The blood and lymph systems can carry cancer cells to other organs in the body, where they can produce new growths or tumors. The spread of cancer cells to other parts of the body occurs in 20-40% of patients who are dying of cancer.
Almost any type of cancer can spread to the lungs.
Patients who have previously had cancer are at risk for developing metastatic pleural tumors if the cancer was not successfully treated.
- Chest pain especially when taking a deep breath
- Cough
- General discomfort, uneasiness, or ill feeling (malaise)
- Shortness of breath
- Weight loss
Exams and Tests
- Chest x-ray
- CT scan of the chest
- Open pleural biopsy
- Pleural fluid analysis
- Pleural needle biopsy
- Removal of fluid from around the lungs (thoracentesis)
Pleural tumors usually cannot be removed with surgery. The original (primary) cancer should be treated. Chemotherapy and radiation therapy may be appropriate, depending on the type of primary cancer.
Your health care provider may recommend a procedure called thoracentesis if you have a lot of fluid collecting around your lungs and you have shortness of breath or low blood oxygen levels. This procedure removes the fluid and allows the lung to expand more, making it easier to breathe.
To prevent the fluid from collecting again, medication may be placed directly into your chest space through a tube, called a catheter. Or, your surgeon may spray a medication or talc on the lung surface during the procedure to remove the fluid surrounding your lungs.
Support Groups
You can ease the stress of illness by joining a support group where members share common experiences and problems.
Outlook (Prognosis)
The 5-year survival rate (number of people who live for more than 5 years after diagnosis) is less than 25% for people with pleural tumors that have spread from other parts of the body.
Possible Complications
- Side effects of chemotherapy and radiation therapy
- Continued spread of cancer
Early detection and treatment of primary cancers may prevent metastatic pleural tumors in some individuals.

[Verse 1: Noreaga]
His-and-her cars, his-and-her sinks
Cartier watches, his-and-her minks
We was miserable together
And we used to hide out, now we visible together
Hand me the bullets while I load my gun
She helped me hustle, helped me cop my Ones
Pretty face, stomach thin
And got a head on her shoulders, it's a win-win
When I first met her, she was driving Acura
I never rode with her, followed right in back of her
Baby from Jers, I think Elizabeth
She was always smart and spoke articulate
She warned me, don't be possessive
I was falling in love, showing my effort
Thugs fall in love too, fuck that
She said a chick called her phone -- boo, fuck that!
[Hook: Cassie]
I need somebody that'll ride for me
Are you that man?
I need somebody that'll die for me
Can you understand?
All the love and the pain
Through the sunshine and through the rain
If you can
And let hear you say
I'm your baby girl
Tell me I'm your baby girl
I need to be your baby girl
[Verse 2: Noreaga]
True story..
Met in Miami, my mind in New York though
I was fatter back then, a big torso
See, out with her friends, they ate at Larrios
I brought them sangria, I told them savia
Ask me menage, I'm rolling dolo
No entourage, I need a solo
Her and her friends asked me for a picture
I said, hell yeah, let me get in there with ya
Exchanged numbers, that was a smart move
Met in New York, we had our first date
Drinks at a bar, of course I came late
I'm just looking in her eyes, mami so shy
I tried to tell her that I'm different from them other guys
I'm a real one, so you can let your guard down
I'm a real one, baby you with God now
I'm a real one, baby you with God now
[Verse 3: Noreaga]
Years later, we still together, still thugging it
And we moved to the ocean and both loving it
If I could do it again, I wouldn't change shit
I brung her to my hood when it's dangerous
And she even cooked meals for my nephew
I never said thank you; that moment is special
The most beautifulest thing on the planet
Our love's for real, don't take that for granted
And I would walk across the earth for you
You're the best thing that happened to me, that's why I'm loyal
To me, you're more precious than oil
You never say no, that's why we both spoiled
A straightforward love song from the otherwise eccentric Noreaga – except for that part at the end where he compares his girl to oil..

The Safina Center
80 North Country Road
Setauket, NY 11733
Thanks to your support and love of the oceans, Blue Ocean Institute's 2011 Annual Gala was a wonderful success. Great auctions, good food, inspiring people, and Carl's moving keynote speech all made for a memorable and meaningful evening.
Keynote: Carl Proposes a New Merger to Stabilize Nature
Continuing where he left off with his critically acclaimed new book The View From Lazy Point, Carl Safina, founder of Blue Ocean Institute at Stony Brook University, asked a rapt audience at the Institute's annual gala last night to merge knowledge and commitment to stabilize a rapidly overheating planet and a changing ocean.
"If science can't make biodiversity sufficiently sexy, and religion won't step up to love this blue planet, what's left? I propose a merger, but we can't expect scientists or religious people to do the merging…It is up to all of us, as usual, to carry this water. In our private and civic lives, our religious places, and our business dealings we must all merge a scientific love of knowledge with a devotion as consistent and values-based as any religion."
Speaking frankly about current challenges–from ocean acidification to overfishing– Safina succeeded in conveying hope and inspiration. Part-poet, part-philosopher, and part scientist, Dr. Safina once again added his own refreshing twist. He followed his description of watching a Peregrine Falcon hunting high over the ocean with a quote from Yeats. He spoke of compassion, consumerism and values.
Safina referenced Jacques Cousteau's famous statement, "We protect only what we love" and went on to say that, "to protect effectively, we must fuse head and heart. Then, we can't just watch, and we can't just wait; we must also do. The falcon must search the waves, but it also must focus on a target and execute the plunge."
He concluded by asking listeners to merge and embody three things: "Passion in how we care. Cool-headedness in how we evaluate. Devotion in how we act." To celebrate the proposed merger Safina lead the crowd in a cheer of "The Ocean Is…Too Big to Fail!" He then encouraged all present to be part of the ocean's "bailout."
With over 200 ocean supporters in the room, Institute fund and friend-raising exceeded expectations at The Lighthouse at Pier 61 in Chelsea.
Another highlight of the evening was a talk by Sven-Olof Lindblad, founder of Lindblad Expeditions, who was honored for his role in introducing thousands of travelers to the beauty and awe of nature. Sven's remarks gave the crowd a glimpse into the way serendipity led him from a love of Elephants and Black rhinos to founding an eco-tourism business that has raised over $9 million to support local efforts in the destinations where it travels.
Safina told of a prolific year for the Institute which included two new books, his Saving the Ocean series airing on PBS, ongoing advances in ocean research, and successful educational programs such as Green Chefs/Blue Ocean. He previewed new initiatives such as an international youth ed program and companion tours of his books on Google Ocean.

Best Of :: Bars & Clubs
Greg Brickey and Jeff Davis take their wine seriously. They stock thousands of bottles of domestic and imported wines in their lovely, low-key spot, tucked away in a strip mall just off Scottsdale Road. Come by for a tasting on a Friday night, and they'll take you to New Zealand, Australia, or South Africa, via some carefully chosen bottles. Or stop by for a half bottle (never a cork fee!) and a cheese board or hummus and pita chips, off the "bites" menu.
You can get as serious as these self-described Wine Guys, and they'll help you plan your own wine cellar. Or take a class in wine/food pairing, offered at the wine bar by an instructor at the Scottsdale Culinary Institute. They'll even arrange a private tasting for you and a group of friends, and tailor the selection to fit your desires. Brickey and Davis better watch out: At this rate, you'll get so into wine you'll want to toss your day job like these two did and open up your own wine bar. We're betting they're up to the competition.
We have a good friend whose two favorite things in the world are candy and booze. So when we wanted to try the best candy cocktails in town, naturally, we asked her.
"Twisted!" she shouted. "Well, no," we responded. "We don't think that's such an odd request. We just thought, in honor of our Sweet Life theme this year, that we'd "
"No, dude!" she interrupted. "Don't you get out? Twisted has the best candy cocktails in town!"
Oh. Turns out, our friend has been hanging out a lot in Scottsdale, at a spot called Twisted. And, of course, she's right. The place has the sweetest cocktails, from our particular favorite, a flight of frozen margaritas in far-out flavors like mango, tamarind, and jalapeño, to our friend's standard order, a blood orange Cosmo. The menu also includes Peaches and Cream, The Caramel Apple and the Florida Martini, which involves vodka, vanilla, lime and cream.
Our friend is such a candy purist, she'll only do the hard stuff: Jolly Ranchers, lollipops, the occasional Sour Patch Kid. She actually claims that she doesn't like chocolate, which is why, she explained, she hasn't tried Twisted's Chocolate Cherry Bomb. It sounds gross to her.
Now that, we say, is twisted.
Betty Crocker, get your booze on the German chocolate cake shot could be the sweetest thing to ever hit your lips and liver. This rich, syrupy drink is still something of a secret; many bartenders are lost if the recipe's not in their books. Luckily, most of those behind the bar at Palazzo on the club's weekly Friday goth night, Tranzylvania, know how to cook up this goodie and pour some sugar on us. For the rest, here's the 411: Frost the rim of a shot glass with sugar and lemon. Pour a half-ounce of Stoli vanilla vodka and a half-ounce of Frangelico hazelnut liqueur into the glass and stir together. Lick the sugar off the rim, shoot the booze, and quickly bite into a piece of lemon. It tastes exactly like German chocolate cake but will probably give you fewer cavities and more gusto in your game. But be warned: They are delicious and potentially addictive.
Before we stumble out for a tour of the galleries on Roosevelt Row, we like to stop in at the bar at Portland's for a fancy cocktail. Our favorite is a sweetie called the Thin Mint Tini just a simple blend of Ketel One, Rumpleminze Peppermint Schnapps, crème de cacao and a splash of cream. Is this why our friends had so much fun at Girl Scout camp?
Blue Wasabi has one of the most creative drink menus in town, and we're glad that we can now drink the martinis a little closer to home, with the opening of the Hilton Village location. (You folks who live in DC Ranch had all the luck, 'til now.)
We're particularly fond of a drink called the Mello Jello. This is not your frat party Jell-O shot. Oh, no, this drink is pure sophistication, a blend of Skyy Berry vodka, cranberry-flavored sweet and sour, and cranberry juice infused with dark cherry Jell-O. A Jell-O infusion? Leave it to Blue Wasabi. And if that sounds too grownup, leave it entirely and try the Milky Way or the Lemon Head instead.
Rappers Jay-Z and P. Diddy might have gotten in a little harsh dissing of Cristal on their latest albums, but believe us, there's no finer symbol of style and stardom than downing a bottle or two of the chic champagne, particularly in the utterly opulent environs of either location of the Valley's classiest strip club. You definitely gotta be living large to afford it, however; bottles start at $550. But at least you can kick it in the VIP area, where the sultry strippers dance a little bit closer than they do in the cheap seats. The gold-labeled bubbly's been the sign of status and the subject of hip-hop songs for more than a decade, and your success will shine much more brightly amidst the stylish décor of Christie's when clutching some Cris. It's just like in the Lil Scrappy jam "Money in the Bank" when Young Buck sang, "We keep a bankroll/Wallet full of credit cards/Cup full of Cristal/Box full of cigars."

The best way to paint your fondant cake gold is to use Wiltons Gold Pearl Dust; you can paint it on wet or dry. Painting it on wet will produce a vibrant gold color. This is done by mixing equal portions of Pearl Dust and Pure Lemon Extract, and applying the color with a clean brush.
If you are just looking for some added gold sparkle, I'd recommend dry dusting. This is simply done by dipping a dry, clean brush in the color dust and applying it directly to your fondant.

Kaunakakai, Molokai
Name: Kaunakakai
What: Molokai's central town
- Where: 15 minutes southeast of Molokai Airport
In the central town of Kaunakakai, an absence of traffic lights take you back to a simpler time, virtually unchanged since the early 1900s. This charming paniolo (Hawaiian cowboy) town is also the island's main harbour, where some locals still fish for their dinner. Stroll down to Kaunakakai Harbor to the end of the state's longest pier, extending well past the reef - just you, the local fisherman and the sound of local boats slowly jetting out of the harbour.
The town's main strip, Ala Malama Avenue, was named after the nearby house used by King Kamehameha V in the 1860s. You'll find it easy to browse the shops and boutiques of its business district. You'll find crowds at the famous Kanemitsu's Bakery, where locals and visitors alike line up after hours to get piping-hot loaves of fresh bread. Be sure to order their famous onion-and-cheese bread and slather your half loaf of bread with jelly, butter, cream cheese or cinnamon. It's a Molokai must.
Stay the night at the Aqua Hotel Molokai, a Kaunakakai landmark located on Kamiloloa Beach, or find a condominium or cottage rental. Then be sure to visit the Kapuaiwa Coconut Grove to see palm trees in one of the last royal coconut groves. Across the way you'll discover "Church Row," the site of seven small, missionary-style churches, some dating back to the late 19th century. Other local Kaunakakai eateries and shops include Friendly Market, Mrs. K's Lunch Counter, Imamura's Store, Outpost Natural Foods, Pascua's General Store, Kalele Bookstore and the Molokai Pizza Café. And don't forget the Saturday outdoor market, perfect for a Molokai day trip.

I've downloaded the bt5r3-gnome-64.iso 4 times, 3 from the main site, once via torrent, and each time when I try to verify the md5 hash, it fails with a simple message, "md5sum: BT5R3-GNOME-64.iso: Input/output error". Trying md5sum on other iso images I've downloaded works fine. If I ignore the error, and burn a dvd it burns (depending on what I use to burn it), but when I but I can't boot from it (as one would expect).
Since I can download, verify and burn other isos without issue, I'm guessing something might be wrong with this particular iso. Is someone one able to verify that they have had success with it?

Last summer, nobody expected quarterback Russell Wilson's rookie season to end with a trip to the Pro Bowl. Then again, few people even thought the third-round draft pick would be starting for the Seattle Seahawks.
But Wilson didn't just win Seattle's starting job in training camp, he went on to put together one of the best seasons ever by a rookie quarterback, and as a result, he'll be heading to Hawaii to play on the NFC's Pro Bowl team.
Wilson was added Monday as an injury replacement for Atlanta's Matt Ryan, who suffered a shoulder injury in Sunday's NFC championship game. Wilson was named a third alternate when the Pro Bowl rosters were announced last month, and joins first and second alternates Drew Brees and Eli Manning on the NFC team. They were added earlier to replace Aaron Rodgers and Robert Griffin III, who will both miss the game because of injuries.
After a slow start to the season, Wilson and Seattle's offense both picked up in the second half, and he finished with 26 touchdown passes, matching Peyton Manning's rookie record. Wilson, who had 16 touchdowns and two interceptions in the second half of the season, also rushed for four scores, making him the second rookie after Cam Newton to account for 30 total touchdowns. Wilson's 100.0 passer rating was also the best by a Seahawks quarterback in franchise history, and would have also established an NFL rookie record if not for Griffin's 102.4 rating.
"Everybody in this building, and everybody that follows us realizes what kind of player he is, and he's just getting started," Seahawks head coach Pete Carroll said last week. "We can talk about Russell forever because there is so much to talk about. … Put him out on the field on game day, he's a baller. He's a real football player."
Wilson joins five other Seahawks who were named to the NFC squad last month: left tackle Russell Okung and center Max Unger, who were both named starters, as well as running back Marshawn Lynch, safety Earl Thomas and kick returner Leon Washington.
Seattle also sent six to the Pro Bowl after the 2007 season, and had a franchise-best seven Pro Bowlers after the 2005 season.
Luck added to AFC team
INDIANAPOLIS — Indianapolis Colts quarterback Andrew Luck was added to the AFC roster when New England's Tom Brady pulled out with an undisclosed injury.
Luck was the No. 1 overall pick in April's draft and set NFL rookie records for attempts, yards passing and 300-yard games. He fell just short of the league's rookie marks for completions and touchdowns.
Luck also won 11 games, the most by an No. 1 pick in the modern draft and tied an NFL mark by leading seven game-winning drives in the fourth quarter.

From the kids' perspective: This photo was taken at kids'-eye level, instead of from a grown-up height. Taking good pictures means you sometimes have to get down on the sand or suffer a grass stain on your pants. (That's a good thing!)—Andy King
Classic moments: Capturing goofy, spur-of-the-moment poses such as this come from keeping your camera at-the-ready. Think of how much fun you'll have showing this photo when the child becomes a sullen teen-ager!—Andy King
Motion report: Sometimes it's OK to have motion in a photo. Just don't overuse the technique. Try swinging your camera a bit as your little speed demon races by you.—Andy King
Pan with the action, and try a higher shutter speed for less blur.—Al Parrish
Distance yourself: The lovely moment captured in this photo may not have happened if you were close enough to the baby to attract attention to yourself. A telephoto lens allows you to take photos from across a room without becoming a part of the action.—Andy King
This photo's orange tint is caused by using natural-light film in an artificially lit setting. Be sure to use flash when shooting indoors.—Al Parrish

It is said "first impressions are lasting impressions." And when selling a home, curb appeal can make the difference between a quick sale and a passing glimpse.
More importantly, when all of the homes in a neighborhood look great all their values increase. Whether you are selling your home or just want a place that is more beautiful to look at, here are a few tips on how to do it:
Make sure that the path to your front door is obvious and visible. Dark alleys of overgrown shrubs that obscure a walkway don't encourage visitors. Large shrubs that can't be cut back without ruining their appearance may need to be removed.
Others may benefit from just a bit of aesthetic trimming. Also, look at your house at night and see if the path to the front door has enough lighting for someone to navigate it safely without tripping.
The front path should have an even surface and be free of loose objects. Small rocks or gravel, nuts or acorns from nearby trees, twigs and leaves can all pile up and become a trip hazard.
The path should be well-swept and power-washed once a year. Cracked or heaved paving may need to be replaced with a newer surface that can update the look at the same time.
An attractive and well-maintained front door is important. The front door gives an impression that the entire home is well-kept. It should be in good condition. An entry door is a relatively small expense. And painting an old one a new contrasting color is also inexpensive and can add beauty and interest.
Container plantings also help improve the curb appeal of a home. Spring and summer annuals and perennial flowers can brighten up the front of any home. Pots that are well-selected for color, shape and scale can add a lot of interest at or near the front door.
Yard accessories such as house numbers, lighting fixtures, the mailbox and the garage door are often overlooked. These items, for the most part, are relatively inexpensive upgrades.
The garage door can be a bit pricey. But, considering that it can account for much of the front of the home, it is an important consideration.
A little extra care to the lawn can go a long way toward making the front yard more appealing. A lawn can be kept greener longer with less fertilizer if a mulching mower is used. By the way, organic fertilizer lasts longer and doesn't leach out. And a crisp edge trimming does wonders for its appearance.
As with the lawn plantings are very important. Overgrown hedges, shrubs and border plantings detract from a home's curb appeal. When plantings look shabby or in poor health, a little tender loving care may help to prevent the cost of replacement. Weeding and deadheading can also create great improvements in appearance.
Last but not least, the addition of a visual accent can do wonders for the appearance of the front yard. There are so many to choose from: a magnificent ceramic pot with a beautiful glaze, a piece of garden art, an interesting outdoor bench on which to enjoy the morning sun, a stunning piece of driftwood, a lovely birdbath, or some other object that can help recall memories of wonderful times past.
Not all of us have the means to cover the cost of some of the options noted in this article. However, hard work and a little paint can help to fill the bill.

SAN BERNARDINO -- A network animal lovers in two states are working against the clock to save the life of a blue pit bill that survived a violent attack only to be facing euthanasia, dog rescuers said.
Kim Stredney, who lives in Arizona, is part of a network of Facebook users who work to rescue shelter dogs and when she learned about Sabrina, a blue and white pit bull terrier mix who is scheduled to be euthanasia Saturday.
According to Stredney, Sabrina was brought into the San Bernardino Animal Control facility with stab wounds on June 19. Animal control officials couldn't immediately confirm that information but a spokesperson couldn't be located prior to closing Friday. However, the 2-year-old terrier is being housed at the facility.
Members of Save SBC Shelter Pups regularly visit the San Bernardino shelter on Chandler Place and share the stories of dogs and cats that need to be rescued and the group did confirm Sabrina had been stabbed in the back and shoulder. Sabrina was featured on the groups Facebook page.
"Sabrina needs an accredited rescue group who has the ability to pull dogs from the San Bernardino City Shelter and a foster family," said Stredeny in an email exchange.
According to Stredney, many of the dogs that have medical issues, abuse cases or are breeds like pit bulls are not able to be adopted by general public.
Sabrina's picture and information has been shared and reposted a picture of Sabrina with her information hoping the pit bull can be saved.
"Volunteers at various ... shelters take photos of each dog and post them on their pages and a bunch of people like me -- many from other states -- share these pictures, offer to pledge money that a rescue would later be able to collect through Paypal and repost their pictures and stories on various rescue group websites in the area," she said.
Several people have pledged more than $300 to help cover the cost of Sabrina's adoption fees and to help cover the cost to foster the dog with a willing family. But, Stredney points out, the money raised won't mean much if the network of rescuers can't find a willing, accredited rescue group to pull Sabrina.
Anyone willing to foster or pull Sabrina is asked to contact the shelter at 909-384-1304. The dog's identification number is A448460 and must be adopted by 4 p.m.

VVC Cocktail Lounge Field Trip: The Bye and Bye
This story takes place in the dark.
I love The Bye and Bye. If you've been there, you love The Bye and Bye. If you haven't been there, you want to.
Last night happened to be gorgeous, unseasonably warm for October, so I hit the back patio with some friends. I present to you our sexy-as-all-getout cocktails.
Here's the joint's signature drink, The Bye and Bye. It's a cranny-peachy-bourbony masterpiece, and it comes in a mason jar as big as your head. Beware, though, as it tastes like juice so it goes down quick. Even if you're getting food (which you totally should), two of these will put you in don't-drive-home status.
Looking for a manly cocktail? The North Williams is your guy. It's bourbon, fancy ginger beer, and lemon—weighty flavors that somehow agree to get along, you know, for the cause.
And a good old-fashioned dirty martini. I asked my friend if it was extra dirty, and he replied that you should never ask for extra dirty when what you're looking for is filthy. Indeed.

Twins Please....
I am planning to get pregnant next year. I will be 39 then. Most probably this will be my third and last pregnancy. I lost my firstborn to a congenital heart disease. My second daughter is now eight years old and is growing healthy and happy. She is always asking us for a brother or a sister. I also would like to give her more siblings but i guess i have one shot left for that. Thus, I am praying for twins.
I want to remain positive about this because I really want it. But there are no twins in our bloodline. Not even with my husband's. Am I asking for a miracle? Is there even a slightest chance that I will have twins?
12th May 2014 11:30 PM #2
Dear Belle,
I was heartbroken to read your post about you losing your first baby. I am so very sorry for what you have been through. I pray that you will have peace about your baby.
It is still possible (although less likely) to have twins if you do not have any family history of twins. You are more likely to have twins if you are aged over 35 years (which I see that you are) and also if you are on fertility treatment.
Wishing you all the very best,

Dear LJ,
Thank you. I believe I have made my peace with his passing. Perhaps, that is why i am praying for twins. I am hoping to fill up the vacancy he left.
If fertility treatment can help with this, I will definitely try it.
Thank you LJ.
Best regards

DUI charge dropped against Cleveland councilman
(Cleveland) - Drunk-driving and speeding charges have been dropped against Cleveland councilman Eugene Miller.
As part of a plea deal, Miller pleaded no contest to a lesser charge of having physical control of a vehicle while under the influence.
Cleveland Municipal Court Spokesman Ed Ferenc tells WTAM 1100 that Miller paid a total of $486 in fines and court costs.
Miller will be eligible to drive again May 25 when his mandatory six month suspension is over. It was imposed retroactive to his arrest November 24.
Miller declined to comment before and after the hearing Tuesday.
Miller was pulled over at around 1 a.m. at Ohio 2 and South Marginal Road. Ferenc says Miller's blood-alcohol level registered .056, which is below the .08 limit to operate a vehicle. Miller did have trouble with the field sobriety test.

Johnson and Downey acted as security, keeping an eye on cops who they apparently thought would recognize Dix and their group.
Dix, a founding member of the RCP, spoke in a flowing diatribe as we walked amid the crowd that night.
On looking over the whole ground this seems to me the best thing the President can do—and I think Dix would be pleased with it.
Governor Dix doesn't say anything; but Governor Wilson says enough for both.
Page 279, actual translation of "Dix centimes seulement" is "only ten cents" not "two" as the original states.
The next morning I proclaimed my intention of going to Mr. Dix.
The match was duly arranged and came off the following night in a resort not far from Raffity's saloon, and Dix won the fight.
It was Mr. Manners, then, who went to Mr. Dix, and told him under the pledge of secrecy.
I believe Gen. Dix is the last man who would dissent from this opinion.
"I never knew childhood," Miss Dix said pitifully in after life.


text: The Great Gatsby may be the most popular classic in modern American fiction. Since its publication in 1925, Fitzgerald's masterpiece has become a touchstone for generations of readers and writers, many of whom reread it every few years as a ritual of imaginative renewal. The story of Jay Gatsby's desperate quest to win back his first love reverberates with themes at once characteristically American and universally human, among them the importance of honesty, the temptations of wealth, and the struggle to escape the past. Though The Great Gatsby runs to fewer than two hundred pages, there is no bigger read in American literature.

Tornados fall at home to ErskineMarch 23, 2010
Corn hits fifth home run in loss
Brevard, N.C. - The Brevard College Baseball team (5-17) fell to 24th ranked Erskine College (24-7) 14-7 Tuesday afternoon at Gil Coan Field. The Tornados led five to two after two innings, but the Flying Fleet scored at least one run in seven of their nine turns at bat to sweep the season series over Brevard.
Down 1-0 in the bottom of the second Brevard scored three runs on four consecutive hits. Matthew Pruitt and Kellen Moman hit back to back singles. Ron Patterson followed with an RBI double to plate Pruitt. Matthew Ennis then laced a two RBI single to left field. Ennis finished the day two for three with two driven in.
The Tornados put two more across in the third inning. Stephen Mullis led off the frame with a five pitch walk and Jackie Corn took an 0-1 pitch from Tyler Jones over the left field fence for his fifth home run this year. Corn was two for four with two RBI and two runs scored.
Erskine plated three runs in each of the fourth and sixth innings. Right fielder Bryan Fogle went four for five with three runs scored and three driven in. He now has 60 RBI this season. Three of his hits were doubles. First basemen John Bolding was three for six with three RBI and two runs scored.
Trailing 9-6 in the bottom of the seventh Brevard scored their final run of the game on a Pruitt RBI double to plate Corn.
The Flying Fleet scored single runs in each of the seventh and eighth innings to take a 10-7 lead. Erskine added four insurance runs in the ninth on four hits and two Tornado errors. Fogle's RBI single and Bolding's two RBI double broke things open,
The Tornados had two on with one out in the ninth before Pruitt struck out looking and Moman fouled out to shortstop to end the game.
Ennis finished the day two for three with two driven in.
Jacob Koontz (0-2) worked six innings and allowed eight earned runs while striking out five. Derek Smith worked four innings of relief allowing one run on two hits and striking out five to improve to 3-0 this year.
Erskine travels to Tigerville, S.C. Wednesday March 24 for a doubleheader against North Greenville, with first pitch of game one scheduled for 1 p.m.
The Tornados go on the road for a twin bill against Virginia Intermont Wednesday. Game one will begin at 2 p.m.

Complete Men's Soccer Weekly Release in pdf format
Photos courtesy of Dartmouth Varsiy Athletic Communications and Yale Sports Publicity
PRINCETON, N.J. -- Three teams are within one point of each other, creating a logjam atop the Ivy League men's soccer standings.
Brown sits atop the league standings with Dartmouth and Cornell sitting one point behind. The teams will play each other over the next two weeks with Cornell hosting Dartmouth this Saturday night and Brown visiting Dartmouth on November 9 in a match that will be televised by Fox Soccer Channel and will have some measure in determining the Ivy League champion.
In what began as a four-team logjam at the start of the weekend, Cornell created a little separation atop the standings on Saturday with a 1-0 win over Princeton, handing the Tigers their first league loss of the season. Daniel Haber scored the only goal of the match and goalkeeper Rick Pflasterer made it stand up, recording his fourth shutout of the season.
Brown, meanwhile, held onto the top spot in the standings with a 1-0 win at Penn. Ben Maurey scored off a rebound just 3:59 into the match and Sam Kernan-Schloss made eight saves to preserve the shutout. Kernan-Schloss dropped his goals against average to an Ancient Eight-best 0.45 and bumped up his League-best save percentage to .863 in the effort. It was his ninth shutout of the year, also tops in the League.
Dartmouth kept pace with Cornell and stayed within a point of Brown with a 3-1 win over Harvard. The Big Green scored twice in the final 14 minutes of the match to break a 1-1 deadlock. Alex Adelabu had a hand in all three Dartmouth goals, including a goal and an assist late in the match. Jake Freeman scored Harvard's goal 8:37 into the contest.
Yale and Columbia played to a 1-1 tie. Henning Sauerbier scored Columbia's goal, while Scott Armbrust scored for Yale. Yale defender Tyler Detorie made a sliding save to knock away a potential gamewinner in the final minutes of regulation time and preserve the tie.
Dartmouth's Alex Adelabu (Houston, Texas) had a hand in all three goals as the Big Green downed Harvard, 3-1, on Saturday. After falling behind early, Adelabu scored midway through the first half to tie the match, then scored what wound up the game winner with 13:06 to play. He also added an assist on an insurance marker a little over five minutes later.
It was Adelabu's second multiple goal game of the year. He leads the Big Green with nine goals and 21 points on the season.

Yale's Tyler Detorie (Canton, Conn.) played all 110 minutes for the Bulldog defense and made the key play to preserve a 1-1 tie with Columbia on Saturday.
Detorie slid at the goal line to clear away Henning Sauerbier's shot with a little over a minute to play in regulation. Sauerbier, who scored Columbia's goal in the first half, had dribbled past goalkeeper Bobby Thalman and appeared to have an open goal to shoot at. But Detorie knocked away the effort to preserve the tie.
