Marvel's The Avengers - Avengers Assemble
In the intertwined universe comprised of Marvel Comics' big screen endeavors, The Avengers feels most like a direct sequel to 2011's Captain America and in the best of ways. Iron Man, The Incredible Hulk and Thor unleashed popular comic book characters that fought villains in large-scale battles, all in the name of popcorn munching. They were fun, but Captain America upped its predecessors in all departments. The film introduced us to a genuine hero, a real person rising up to do great things for all the right reasons. Writer/director Joss Whedon's ultimate team-up continues the characterization, transforming the rest of the Marvel figureheads into those kind of heroes. The team butts heads with extraterrestrial forces, but they do it with human qualities: endurance, weakness, humor and heart. The Avengers are the Bad News Bears of superhero squads, and their epic adventure in responsibility is an absolute joy to watch.
The Avengers picks up where every other Marvel movie left off (which means, you may want to load up your Netflix queue now): the recently unfrozen Captain America (Chris Evans) is hanging around with Nick Fury (Samuel L. Jackson), trying to adjust to modern day; Thor (Chris Hemsworth) is clocking much needed R&R up in Asgard; Tony Stark (Robert Downey Jr.) a.k.a. Iron Man continues to innovate new armor while teasing Fury's S.H.I.E.L.D. organization; and Bruce Banner plays doctor in a third world country, keeping off the map so as not to unleash his inner-Hulk. Dropping by Earth is Thor's power-hungry brother Loki (Tom Hiddleston), who steals the ultimate weapon, The Tesseract, in hopes of taking over the planet. With the world in danger, Fury puts into motion his long-gestating superteam plan: The Avengers Initiative.
Each Marvel hero comes packed with a strong personality and distinct style, but Avengers never feels mismanaged. Whedon elegantly orchestrates the mayhem of both giant action scenes and inter-team scuffling finding the perfect dose of each character at any given moment. When the group finally comes together (and it takes a great deal of nagging on Fury's part), there's an immediate resistance. They're so hotheaded, Iron Man and Thor even duke it out while Captain America plays the I'll-Tell-Mommy boyscout. Whedon relishes in the friction, capitalizing on the comic bookiness of the situation with poignant dissections of teamwork and heroism, while infusing it with truly hysterical banter. The Avengers may be one of the funniest movies of the year. Whereas Iron Man 2 was overdose, having other leads to dilute Downey Jr.'s manic mouth helps Tony Stark finally land his punchlines. Evans is another standout, his fish-out-of-water predicament lending itself to comedy that clicks ("I got that reference," Captain Steve Rogers timidly points out). But Hulk takes the cake, Whedon mining the towering green monster for all-out destruction and physical comedy. When Hulk smashes, he smashes big and Whedon's clever timing is reminiscent of old Warner Bros. cartoons.
The conflict in The Avengers is arbitrary, often slipping into the background in favor of the main heroes. But while the world never feels in jeopardy, the personal triumphs of the group always take precedence even for smaller, less flashy characters like Scarlett Johansson's Black Widow, Jeremy Renner's Hawkeye and the cult favorite, Agent Coulson (Clark Gregg). The trio of powerless humans could easily fall wayward to the main quartet, but a little Asgardian magic turns everyone on their head, keeping them in a game. When the war for Earth finally does enter the scene rounding out the final hour of the film Whedon pulls out all the stops. The much-teased battle in New York is wisely compact compared to modern blockbusters grand enough to comprehend the scope, but always focused on The Avengers. In one single, exhilarating shot, Whedon swoops from character to character, clicking them into the puzzle he's so perfectly constructed. There's plenty of cheer-worthy action in The Avengers, but the assembling of a team is a warm and fuzzy moment. The team is finally together, kicking butt in the name of humanity. Mission accomplished.

Bolivia: Escaping to a land of freedom
Amanda escaped from the farm where she was working when she was 15. She fled the abuse perpetrated by her employers, poor living conditions and a future that condemned her to poverty and dependence. Like hundreds of other Guaraní families in eastern Bolivia, hers had no land and no freedom.
Two years later, Amanda got married. She had eight children, who she maintained by working as a house maid. Poverty, lack of access to land, and to the means for cultivating it, often makes women dependent on the income of their partners, or forces them to engage in tasks that reproduce the role of servant that society has imposed on them.
I didn't know I had so many rights
"I didn't know I had so many rights, finding out about them changed my life and that of my people", says Amanda excitedly. "Now we have land and know how to cultivate it, we have livestock, wool sheep, and have even become honey producers. The good thing is that we're doing it as a community".
Oxfam's work in the forgotten, desert areas of the Chaco region of Bolivia has contributed to creating conditions that allow communities to recover power and control over the land, develop agriculture, breed and sell livestock and plan how they are going to use the natural resources. This translates into more income, more rights and a stronger Guaraní People's Assembly – the highest representative body of this indigenous nation.
Securing land for the indigenous people
In 1950, 4.2% of the Bolivian population owned 70% of the land in the east of the country. Today – as a result of the demands made for land by the indigenous population and peasants from the 1990s onwards – over 28 million hectares have been signed over to the original communities or people, including at least 1.7 million hectares that were regularized with the support of Oxfam and its allies in the country.
That's the story. Amanda went from serving her employers to becoming a landowner, administering her own income, defending rights and acting as a leader. Today, she is the infrastructure and production secretary of the Capitanía de Machareti, her community's governing body.
As she says herself, hers was an escape to freedom.

Painting the 2-Eleven is vexing due to the mandatory swirls; no fancy paint for me then.
That's a great lap Blob. Great control of your car-you're on the limit the whole time and it looks awesome

Yes, well, I wouldn't need so much car control if I was lining up my entries better. I'm pretty sure there's at least another half second out there, waiting to reward some smoothness.
I got on last night and couldn't even catch my own ghost let alone yours lol
Going to have to take an impromptu trip to the in-laws this weekend. I'll try and make it (they have an Xbox at least but I might be sans nice livery, but it depends on social convention whether I can steal their living room for an hour
Do we have a lap count yet?
Sorry, I've been totally swamped this week with work and people from out of province visiting. I haven't even had a chance to practice yet!
I've allotted myself some time to practice, get a lap count, and make a sweet livery later tonight.

That's okay - I've only managed four or five laps earlier in the week. Tonight I'll be doing real world driving (in this on dull roads as we hoik our way up to Liverpool. There's a reason there's no long motorway runs on Forza
Best I managed was around the high 1:36s IIRC. As with the MX-5 challenge last month, those tight turns at 3 and 10 kill me.
Personally, I'm having a hell of a time staying clean. The car feels crisp and clean but at the same time it's like this little volcano that might explode at any time. I'm finding that once I start losing control even slightly, it's really hard to not totally implode.

Glad it's not just me then. I find the slightest clipping of a curb and it'll bite you. But lots of fun to drive.
At least until do this
I think part of the trick with the 2-11 is to lift only slightly when correcting oversteer. A full lift seems to just put the rear in front. (I suspect that compression braking + light weight = locked rear wheels). Also, use very subtle steering adjustments.
Alright everyone, I've done some laps and looked at the leaderboards and by my calculations this race will be:
40 laps
I call this week's livery Hello On Wheels:
Installed at in-laws - no saves due to Forza not working with Cloud Storage, so I'm afraid I'll need to run a vanilla car as I have to start from scratch with zero credits, sorry. I'll be in stock orange, which is also pretty hellish

Edit: oops - posted stuff in wrong race thread.
How'd the race go? Hung over and overslept here. Guess I had a bit too much fun with shenanigans last night... as if the humvee antics weren't telling enough. Probably for the best though since I never managed to turn even a single practice lap.
From my point of view, what a race. So, although I wasn't vying for the top spot, the last ten laps were intense for me, and my hands were shaking by the end. I don't think I handle pressure well
Good clean start for all I though. Initially Randomyzr who missed qualifying and started last, was bouncing up and down, so I stayed back and let him get on with it. His car was green, so I assume picked up some frog like characteristics But his car settled down after the first lap for me.
Anyway, I was happy trying to come home clean, as ever. At some point early on randomyzr spun, and I briefly held 5th, but he was clearly out pacing me, and I slipped up on the back "hairpin" and he took back his rightful place.
Laps 10 thru 20 I totally lost my groove, was struggling to find a flow, but managed to wake up again from then on.
Then around lap 30 Ajdeanmny had his accident and pitted and I was 5th again. This partly disappointed me, as at that point I was working out which car to pick next week. From then on I suddenly felt under huge pressure (from myself) to keep 5th. Interestingly Ajdeanmny in a wrecked car is about the same pace as me with a pristine car Towards the end it was getting to me a bit, but I managed to keep it until the end, which pleased me grately. I also took 2 seconds off my previous personal best lap time in that car, so I was happy.
Mostly a quiet race for me, but I finished, and kept my car clean. Not sure those are the lofty ambitions causes Jenson Button to leap out of bed of a morning, but hey, I've gotta start somewhere - that's only my second completed race
Thanks a lot guys - a really good car/track combo. Not too easy, not too hard. Loved it. And the in-law's ADSL held up, which I was well chuffed with, as I'd worried about that. Blob: I have no idea how you go so f*@# fast - I'm humbled to share the same tarmac
At the end some (sorry, I was struggling with audio) suggested it was my turn to pick the car - though I didn't come last. Happy to do that, but I don't want to deny Ajdeanmny his pick again (I think you picked the 2-Eleven right?).
I don't have much time to talk about the race right now but my choice for next week's car is the Lancia Delta.

The car of my dreams as a child
Yeah, sorry, I totally zoned out at the end there. I was actually watching the replay earlier today and was surprised and quite happy to see that my replay actually lasted the entire duration of the race. I was able to fast forward to lap 30 and show the wreck to a friend of mine.
Dougal, I was honestly very scared that you were going to pass me at the end of the race. I think in the last four laps you gained 8000ft on me and you only had about 3000ft left at the finish line.
Anyway, although it was only my third race so far, it was easily the one I was most proud of. It started rather surprisingly, with Blob quickly falling to third and me tailing Kilkenny for a couple of laps. Eventually, Blob caught up to me and passed me, and I started falling behind with Kilkenny and Blob fighting for 1st. I kept up for about 15 laps but after a spin I started to fall behind. Around lap 22 or so I came across Atticus and dueled with him for about eight laps as I tried to lap him. Eventually, he went off the road and I was able to pass him, but he stuck on me and was able to keep up through a combination of my mistakes and his drafting me.
Unfortunately, he got a little preoccupied by trying to draft me and forgot to brake before the last chicane, hitting me in the back at about 120MPH. I pitted with my whole car in the red and hobbled along for the next few laps until the race ended. I was still very proud of my performance, especially considering my first practice session was last night. I think I could have done a lot better with more practice, especially with the first few sets of turns, but I'm still happy with my performance.
I'm pretty excited about next week's race. I've been doing some thinking on the subject of Blob being absent next week, and as a result I've decided that the choice of next week's race will go to Kilkenny. I'll come up with a form of consolation for Blob, but I figure it's for the best.
Anyway, Kilkenny: the choice is yours!

Totally hadn't spotted that - I was so preoccupied with keeping Atticus behind me, I'd not spotted that you'd had to pit too! I think the last couple of laps were ragged, but I was pleased that I managed to keep most the last bunch close to my faster laps.
It was funny where I made and lost time. I'd expected turn 10 to be a killer for me, and although I suspect I was breaking too early there, I was pretty consistent. It was actually turn 1 where I'd misjudge it and lose a second a lot of the time. I never quite found a consistent rule for whether to take it in fourth or third.
Audio chat was a very variable for me - so apologies if I missed any audio cues. I was using headphones with both race audio and voice chat, but the mixing wasn't very good. And in the lobby it tended just to play music over you all

I'll go with... Silverstone International Circuit
Much thanks to Randomyzer for putting his race on the back burner last night to try n help me out. Too bad I didn't get to race, I was feeling this track/car combo! Next combo looks good.
Alright guys, so the next race will be at:
Silverstone International Circuit with the Lancia Delta Integrale
The length will be 35 laps.
As a side-note: due to the PI glitch issues, the Delta has been removed from the leaderboards and as a result we can't post times with it (as far as I'm aware, anyway). If you want to share your times, you're going to have to post them yourself in this thread.
Just had it pointed out to me that it's my birthday next Saturday, so I might end up missing the race due to social engagements, sorry.
It saves you all for having to let me win 'cos it's my birthday
Despite the fact I probably won't make it, I thought I'd have a blast, just to see what I was missing, and this looks like it'll be a fun race!
The International circuit is a nice length - after the Rivals on the full Silverstone track I was worried this would be quite dull, but the International circuit was a good pick Kilkenny! It keeps the nice things about Silverstone, but cuts out the long straights, which in lower class cars can be a bit tedious, particularly for those of us at the back of the pack
And the Lancia is quite fun to drive - finally a car with grip I usually race Lotus's etc, so am used to having to take the fast bends gingerly, but with the Lancia you can just keep on going. Such a fun car, I suspect I'll be using this a lot more now.
Not sure where everyone is at but I am loving this car track combo lots of fun to drive
Best lap 1:42.299
I already knew this track very well from single player r1 and am feeling that although there is more time out on the track .... I am close to my personal limit. I would love to know where everyone else is (especially Blob) to see how close I am to the pace. It is going to be a fun race for sure
I only had time for three laps the other night and my best was 1:45 so you're a bit ahead of me. I need to find some time to practice!

Thanks. I was exclusively considering 'Club' tracks because of the shorter lengths for the slower car this week. Plus with our relatively small field, I hoped it would prevent people from finding themselves driving alone on the track for too long (even if it just means getting lapped faster).
The tracks I was considering originally were shorter still (~1.75 miles, ~1:25 lap times in this class), which might've been a little too short & required a really high lap count. At something like 2.2 miles, this was my compromise choice (Silverstone GP is > 3 mi).
Though I still haven't set a time in this particular car yet.
I was doing some practicing when something came up and as it turns out I will not be able to make this Saturday's race! I was so excited to race a somewhat normal and simple car, too.
Hmmm..maybe we should just cancel the race this week? With blob, boney, and Dougal not racing, that takes out more than half of our regular guys. What do you guys think?

In the end it is your decision, and it will be not as good without everybody ... But I am still super keen for a race.
I gather in Forza 1* that there was a feature where you could record an approximate AI model of how you play and share it with your friends, so they could play a pseudo you when you weren't around (I imagine quite useful in the days before pervasive net facilities on consoles). This would really help in this case - it wouldn't matter if someone missed a race, you'd draft in their AI.
The AI would presumably be less good, so it'd be more filler, but it'd at least keep up the numbers, which I think helps with the fun a lot.
I suspect my AI's motto would be "Drive like a coward!"
* I never played Forza 1, but the original AI was developed at Microsoft Research Cambridge, and I was working at the Computer Lab next door at the time - it was their justification for having a 3 screen Forza rig in the MSRC foyer
Just so I don't leave people hanging, this week's race is going to be canceled. We'll resume next week with the same car and track combo. Sorry about this folks!

Looking nice!
Completing my afternoon of spamming all the Forza threads:
I plan on starting a lobby tonight (say ~9pm EST) if anyone want to run some practice with live opposition. I'll probably change up the lobby during the evening to allow practice for all three racing groups over the course of the evening: FORZ-NASC-ARS (Friday next week), PLUMB (this Saturday morning), VURCE (Friday night this week).
I'll x-post the other threads.
My god... I still can't get anywhere close to 1:42! My personal best is 1:44 and since I can't download anyone's replay, I have no idea where I can improve!
WOW! Just wow. What a race! The qualifying round was so close, with everyone getting within about a second, I thought it could go lots of different ways. Unfortunately, we lost two racers early on and were left with a field of just 5, so that kept people a little further apart than they should have been. Regardless, the race started with me, Kilkenny and Randomyzr all bunched up together for the first five/ten laps or so, and the three of us were basically all neck and neck. There was probably 200ft between first and third. At some point, Kenny's controller disconnected and he never was quite able to catch back up, but things stayed ridiculously close between me and Randomyzr. For most of the 35 laps, he was within 100ft of me. I think we both raced unbelievably well, and in fact after seeing everybody's lap times and the fact that I didn't lap anyone, I think everybody raced admirably. Congratulations to everyone that beat their personal bests, and huge grats to Kenny for the best lap time with a 1:41:0.
Anyway, this week is Dougal's choice of car and my choice of track. For the track, I choose:
Sedona Raceway Park: Club Circuit
Man, I detest Sedona Worse bit about today's track was the hairpin, and now we have a track with one at each end
Before I saw the track I was going to pick a V12 Vantage, but not on this track, I'm not that cruel. But I did want something that had a little more oomph to it, but not as go-cart like as 2-Eleven. So I've picked the 2008 Audi R8, which seems to cope a lot better with its AWD.
I have to confess, not raced this one much - I should probably be going for a car I'm really familiar with, but none particularly suited this track or were too similar to things we've already raced, and part of the fun of this for me is racing cars of different styles each week. I'd love to pick something really different, like the Tesla, but that's obviously verboten due to it being DLC.
Quite a quiet race for me today - though at one point I was briefly third It didn't last though, and I held up the back of the pack. I was saddened that Jonathan and Max dropped out, as it was fun having an objective to keep them behind me - before he dropped out Jonathan was slowly reeling me in, and it drove me on trying to keep that gap as big as I could.
I think in the end that's why I've picked what for me is a car that's a slight stretch for me - I don't particularly feel competitive, so I need something to keep me entertained for an hour. My only concern is how many times I'll be lapped - in testing I was in the one twenty something range - at that speed I think those at the front of the pack will be lapping us at the back

Officers had dozens of warrants, but only found a handful of suspects. Police say it is still worth the time and energy they put into serving the warrants.
"It is worth it when you get to get some of the people that we've gotten tonight off the street," Burbrink said. "It makes us feel better about our job and it makes the city a little bit safer tonight."
Louisville Metro police say they've taken some dangerous criminals off the streets — including a local church pastor accused of sex crimes!
It's all part of the Metro Police Department's Special Victims Unit.
WDRB was the only television station there when officers went looking for the suspects on Wednesday — and by the end of the night, they had a New Albany church pastor in custody.
"He is a pastor at a church over in New Albany," said Sgt. Donny Burbrink, of the LMPD's Special Victims Unit. "He had been charged with a couple of counts of sodomy first."

Hengyi Rao, PhD
Hengyi Rao, PhD
Research Assistant Professor of Cognitive Neuroimaging in Neurology and Psychiatry,
Division of Sleep and Chronobiology, Center for Functional Neuroimaging,
Department of Neurology, University of Pennsylvania Perelman School of Medicine
Hengyi Rao, PhD, is a Research Assistant Professor of Cognitive Neuroimaging in Neurology and Psychiatry in the Perelman School of Medicine, University of Pennsylvania. Dr. Rao received his degree in Biophysics and Cognitive Neuroscience from the University of Science and Technology of China. Dr. Rao was trained at Beijing Laboratory of Cognitive Science, Chinese Academy of Sciences, and has been worked as a lecturer in the Department of Psychology, Sun Yat-Sen University in China until 2004 before moving to the United States. Dr. Rao was a postdoctoral research fellow in the Center for Functional Neuroimaging at University of Pennsylvania from 2004-2007.
It is the prospects of functional brain research to understand the nature of humanity and improve human life and health that attract Dr. Rao to select his career. Dr. Rao's research investigates the neurobiological basis underlying human cognition, emotion and behavior. He is skilled in functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) and cognitive neuroscience, and is interested in integrating multiple neuroimaging and electrophysiological research techniques (primarily ASL perfusion fMRI and BOLD fMRI, also including EEG/ERP, PET, tDCS, and TMS) with behavioral paradigms and genomic methods to understand human brain function. He has recently conducted and published several studies by the combination of fMRI and EEG/ERP, fMRI and structural MRI, fMRI and genotype, concurrent perfusion and BOLD fMRI, concurrent fMRI and PET. Dr. Rao is applying his expert in functional brain imaging for sleep research. Specifically, he is interested in the neurobiological basis of sleep, the effect of sleep on learning and memory, and the effect of sleep deprivation on human cognition, emotion and behavior. He is particularly interested in the neural bases underlying inter-individual differences in human risk-taking and decision-making and the vulnerability to addiction, mood disorders, sleep loss, and fatigue.
Dr. Rao's research has been supported by NHLBI and NIDA. He is currently the Principal Investigator of a 5-year NHLBI grant investigating the neural basis for differential vulnerability to sleep deprivation and a one-year NIDA grant investigating the impaired risk taking behavior and neural activity in cocaine dependent patients. He is also the Principal Investigator of a Translational Biomedical Imaging Center (TBIC) collaborative pilot grant to investigate human brain function changes across sleep/wake cycle with concurrent EEG and fMRI. Dr. Rao is a member of the American Academy of Sleep Medicine (AASM), the Society for Neuroscience (SFN), the International Society for Magnetic Resonance in Medicine (ISMRM), the Organization for Human Brain Mapping (OHBM), and the Cognitive Neuroscience Society (CNS). He serves as the reviewer for many journals in neuroimaging, neurology, and psychiatry, and for funding applications to NIH and Chinese National Science Foundation.

Master of Cytopathology Practice (MCP) Program Description
The mission of the UTHSC Master of Cytopathology Practice (MCP) degree program in cytotechnology and histotechnology is to produce highly skilled, entry-level cytotechnologists and histotechnologists able to meet the current demands of the profession and prepared to assume positions in education, research and management after appropriate clinical experience.
Program Overview
The UTHSC Master of Cytopathology Practice (MCP) degree program is the only program in the country that prepares graduates for certification in both cytotechnology and histotechnology. Graduates of the program will have the skills necessary to prepare and process tissue and cellular material for microscopic analysis as well as the ability to evaluate and interpret all types of cytologic material. They will be able to perform, interpret and correlate ancillary testing for proper triage of patients. They will be able to meet the current demands of the profession and will be able to engage future technology as it becomes standard in the anatomic pathology laboratory. Graduates will also have the necessary assessment skills to direct quality improvement activities and assume positions of leadership in management, research and education.
Students enter the program with 85 credit hours of pre-requisite courses detailed on the admissions requirement page. No baccalaureate degree is required for admission to the program.
The program is 2 calendar years or 21-months in length and is extremely intense and fast-paced. MCP students are in classes and laboratory sessions from 8:00 am to 4:00 pm, Monday through Friday. Clinical experience and didactic instruction are provided throughout the program. Students are assigned to off-campus clinical experiences in the fall and the spring terms of the second year.
Graduates may choose employment in cytotechnology or histotechnology or both. Many employers seek graduates who can work in both areas of the laboratory. The shortages of medical laboratory professionals is critical and expected to increase as older professionals retire.
Program History and Accreditation
The UTHSC Master of Cytopathology Practice degree program is accredited by both the Commission on Accreditation of Allied Health Education Programs (CAAHEP) for the cytotechnology portion and by the National Accrediting Agency for Clinical Laboratory Sciences (NAACLS) for the histotechnology section of the curriculum. The cytotechnology program was established at UTHSC in 1951 and is one of the oldest programs in the country and among the first to convert to graduate level education in 2006. It has always maintained full accreditation. Histotechnology was incorporated into the curriculum in 2008 and initial accreditation was granted by NAACLS in 2012.

Achieving greatness takes dedication and determination. The NDSU Bison football team has shown its commitment to greatness on and off the field. At Sanford Health we are proud to partner with NDSU student athletes and other universities in the region as well as the high school level. "We believe it is important for all athletes at all levels to receive the highest level of care they possibly can," says Bruce Piatt, MD, Sanford Health orthopedic surgeon and medical director for NDSU.
"Our services run the whole gamut of care," says Dr. Piatt. "We work directly with the athletic trainers and with the strength coaches. We work with the athletes on preventive medicine and nutrition." When treatment is necessary Sanford Orthopedics & Sports Medicine is there on a continuing basis for specialized treatment, including evaluation and surgery. "We are making sure that each individual athlete is recovering completely and safely so we can get them back out on the court or field as soon as possible but without further risk of injury," adds Dr. Piatt.
Sanford Health is proud to make an investment in NDSU and its students. In September of 2010, Sanford Health CEO Kelby Krabbenhoft was asked about our investment in NDSU's Capital Fund Drive. He said, "We are building something special together on a great tradition of top level academic and athletic performance at NDSU. We are creating opportunities for outstanding Division I competition while promoting fitness and wellness for our youth and their families."
We have a long history of partnering with universities and athletic programs. Thousands of nursing, pharmacy, therapy and medical students receive hands-on training at Sanford. We believe this allows our best and brightest to receive quality education and training close to home.
The annual Sanford Sports Medicine Symposium provides internationally known expert facilitators on many topics dealing with safe sports participation. We are also proud to provide hands-on learning opportunities for graduate assistants enrolled in the Master of Science in Advanced Athletic Training program at NDSU.
"NDSU football really took the spotlight this year," says Dr. Piatt,
Dr. Piatt says the partnership is truly that. It's not a one-way street. NDSU receives the same caliber of care as any division 1 school would receive. Meanwhile it "has allowed us to utilize this platform and reach out to other athletes at all levels," says Dr. Piatt.
Our goal is to help NDSU student athletes reduce their risk of injury. When injury occurs we provide expert treatment and use science-based protocols to determine when an athlete can return to play. Exercise physiologists and researchers at Sanford's National Institute for Athletic Health & Performance also help athletes improve their performance through proper hydration tactics.
It takes a team of experts with diverse backgrounds to help athletes perform their best. That includes the NDSU athletic trainers and strength coaches, specialty sports therapists and POWER exercise specialists. They are a key part of our team approach to care. They work directly with athletes to assess injury, educate and rehabilitate.
We want anyone who faces an injury to return to their daily life and the activities they love as quickly and safely as possible. The physical therapists at Sanford POWER are committed to getting you back to an active lifestyle following a sports-related injury, trauma, surgery or overuse. Our team is made up of experienced physical therapists that are passionate about working with athletes from the initial injury to the integration of a sport-specific exercise program.
We offer athletes the opportunity to return to performance through a transition program. This program is the connection between an athlete's completion of physical therapy and fully returning to play. It is an individualized, injury-specific program that is administered by our transition team in collaboration with the physical therapist.
Our Orthopedics & Sports Medicine physicians specialize in sports related injuries, musculoskeletal and joint injuries affecting mobility and function:
Our primary care physicians provide expertise in overall health and wellness:

Jan. 18, 2007
CAMBRIDGE, Mass. - The nationally-ranked No. 11 MIT men's volleyball team kicked off its 2007 campaign by defeating Mount Ida College, 30-19, 30-16, 30-17, in non-conference play on Thursday night. It was the second year in a row in which the Engineers (1-0) swept the Mustangs (0-1) in the season opener.
In the first game, MIT raced out to a 6-0 lead, which prompted a timeout by Mount Ida. Following the break, the Mustangs capitalized on miscues by the Engineers and eventually cut their deficit to one (7-6). Both squads traded points, with MIT holding a 10-8 edge. Mount Ida then notched four consecutive points to take its first lead of the night. The spurt came to an end when an attack attempt hit the antenna, which sparked an 11-1 run by MIT (22-13). The Engineers' advantage grew to double-digits as they captured the opening-game victory.
MIT began the second stanza with five unanswered points. The Mustangs picked up the next three points, but it was as close as they would get as a trio of four-point runs helped build a 21-8 margin. A blast by Steve Ray set up game-point at 29-13, but a service error led to two additional points by Mount Ida before the Engineers closed out the game.
In the final frame, the Mustangs established an 8-4 advantage, its largest lead of the match. Behind strong serving by Eugene Jang, MIT registered six points in a row to go ahead for good. The Engineers were too much to handle for Mount Ida as they outscored the visitors, 20-9, to seal the match.
Scott Pollom recorded 10 kills on 16 attempts with one error (.563 hitting percentage) and six blocks to lead MIT's front row. Praveen Pamidimukkala also had a strong outing as he totaled nine kills and a .418 hitting percentage to go along with a team-high seven digs. Ryan Dean and Jang each tallied two aces while Dean contributed seven kills. Philip Rogoz and Caine Jette shared setting duties in their collegiate debuts as Rogoz dished out 22 assists and Jette distributed nine in the third game. Rogoz also added three blocks to the Engineers' cause.
Tim Hughes paced Mount Ida with 10 kills, one assisted block, and one ace while Bryan McMenamin posted seven digs and four kills. Chris Meuer tallied 17 assists and three digs in his first intercollegiate outing.
Both teams will host tri-matches on Saturday, Jan. 21. MIT will face Elms College and Lesley University starting at 4:00 p.m. while Mount Ida will meet up with Emmanuel College and Mount Olive College beginning at 11:00 a.m.

Once associated with the horrors of war, Bosnia-Herzegovina is firmly back on the tourist trail with visitors drawn by dramatic alpine scenery, thundering rivers, ancient towns, hidden monasteries, medieval fortresses and isolated villages.
In a country where Byzantine and Ottoman civilisations meet Roman and Austro-Hungarian influences you can find mosques, synagogues, Orthodox and Catholic cathedrals within walking distance of each other.
Wander along the narrow cobbled streets of the Old Town (Bascarsija) in Sarajevo and join the locals for a strong Turkish coffee. Holidays to Bosnia-Herzegovina wouldn't be complete without a visit to the much-filmed Mostar where divers leap off its rebuilt landmark bridge over the Neretva River.
Join the pilgrims flocking to Medjugorge and the site where an apparition of the Virgin Mary appeared. Step back in time in sleepy Kraljeva Sutjeska, probe the catacombs at Jajce, used by the locals during the recent war, hike along trails through the glorious Dinaric Alps and stumble across remote villages and monasteries on Bjelasnica Mountain where the way of life has changed little for its residents.

Tight end Kevin Boss worked out for the Raiders on Wednesday. The Raiders liked what they saw, and coach Hue Jackson met with Boss for dinner that night. It was all over at that point. Boss' decision was made up.
"The moment I met coach Jackson, I could just feel his energy and it was just exciting for me," Boss said. "Within moments of meeting him, I felt on board with his ideas and, like he was saying, his passion for the game, just his energy, is just exciting to be around and just thrilled to be a part of it now."
Jackson said the feeling was mutual.
"When we set out to find a tight end to add to our football team … we brought Kevin in and worked him out, and sitting down and having dinner with him, and us just talking about football and his passion for the game and exactly what he wanted to accomplish in his career, we kind of had a mutual feeling there," Jackson said. "And, obviously, we had a need at a position there, and watching tape of him, and knowing him a little bit through the league and watching what he's done in his career, it was just a great fit."
Boss signed a four-year deal Friday, spoke with the media this afternoon and is set to hit the practice field for his first practice in a Raiders uniform in a matter of minutes. He will be wearing No. 87. The No. 89 he wore for his four seasons with the New York Giants is the property of wide receiver Nick Miller at this time.
The Raiders signed Boss so that he could help fill the void created by the defection of Zach Miller to the Seattle Seahawks last Tuesday. Boss isn't shying away from the challenge.
"One of my biggest assets is being a pass catcher, so I'm going to do whatever they ask me to do in terms of lining up in different positions," Boss said. "It's going to be fun. Zach Miller had a lot of success here, and I am hoping to continue that success at this position."
A few other snippets from Boss' news conference:
On the prospect of blocking for running backs Darren McFadden and Michael Bush:
"It's exciting. Whenever you have two backs like that that you're blocking for, it makes it exciting. You want to spring that key block that puts them in the end zone. It's going to be a lot of fun to have those two backs. When I was in New York we had a couple good backs with Bradshaw and Brandon Jacobs. It's going to be fun."
On how much it helps playing for a Super Bowl-winning team as a rookie in 2007:
"That was a great experience for me. It's definitely going to help me along my career. As a rookie coming in kind of late in the season and replacing Shockey when he got hurt – I prepared the whole season like I was going to be the starter. A lot of the NFL is just situational, being in the right place at the right time and then when you get there making the most of your opportunities. I'm excited to bring that experience here to the Raiders and looking forward to making a push to the playoffs this year."
On his knowledge of the Raiders before signing here:
"Being a West Coast guy I always grew up keeping an eye on them being closer to them, they were always on TV. It's a great organization, a lot of the Hall of Famer have played here and left their mark here. I'm thrilled to be a part of it now."

I don't feel safe with the Smart Cover on my ipad propping it up vertically. It's a bit too vertical for my taste. It feels like it is always moments from falling over forward.
Honestly, I've never felt that, except on bumpy trains. I just stood it up and tried to poke it over, it needs a fair bit of effort to push it over. I can appreciate the feeling that it's too vertical from an ability to see viewpoint, unless you're close to level with it or a few feet away (maybe 3-4), you need to be pretty level with it to see the screen well.
Same here. And not sure why Surface would be any more kid-proof.
It leans back further and has a wider, stronger base.
Actually, I'm not even sure how useful the ipad is when standing up like that since it is so close to vertical. Again, I just don't use it like that.

I became a student of Yogi Bhajan back in 1970. In the years that followed he always encouraged me in my music and guided me towards my destiny. His teachings have been prominent in my life in a way that is impossible to explain. It was his vision of the Age of Aquarius, and his way of unfolding the God-given gifts we have as human beings that led me to begin the practice of Naad Yoga. Singing and working to that vision of humanity, living in wisdom, peace and harmony together is what keeps me going.
About five years ago Yogi Bhajan told me that I had been a Paathi (one who recites the scriptures) in my last life, and that I should record Furmaan Khalsa. Okay, so I am a little slow. Here is volume one. I finally had some quality time sitting under a tree in Umbria, Italy with my guitar, and the tunes began to flow. I hope this music conveys something of the power and majesty of the original poetry. Remastered at Invincible Recording Studio.
Mata Mandir pours devotion into each note that he sings. His gentle voice creates a sacred atmosphere for healing and connectedness, helping students calm their minds and open their hearts. His Sikh-inspired mantras invite listeners to have a personal experience of the Divine.
A longtime student of Kundalini Yoga Master Yogi Bhajan, Mata Mandir learned early on about the power of the sound current for elevation. Yogiji told me a long time ago that if you play any instrument in a rhythmic pattern, that will put you into harmony with the whole universe, he says. Inspired by Yogi Bhajans life-changing teachings, Mata Mandir then embarked on a journey of helping others come in tune with the rhythm of the universe. Everything has a frequency and vibration, everything has its own song, he says. When you tune in to sounds of the world, like the sound of your breath or your heartbeat, for example, the world becomes different. You create a new intelligence in your life and you begin to see rhythm where before you only saw chaos.
Mata Mandir currently performs and teaches classes on the science of chanting and listening both across the United States and internationally. In his upcoming book, Naad Yoga the Yoga of Sound Workbook, he explains how one can use mantras to stimulate the brain and glandular system and reach deep states of bliss. Theres a cascade of chemical changes in every word we speak, he says.
Sharing a deep passion for Naad Yoga, Mata Mandir uses music to guide his students to the present moment and into a natural state of empowerment. Adding to his detailed teachings on chanting, he also emphasizes the importance of learning to deeply listen. The eyes can create a lot of illusion, he says. But the ears are very accurate and can distinguish all different notes, all different sounds.

NEW YORK (Reuters) - Five reported members of a New York crime family were taken into custody on Thursday and charged with crimes including racketeering, murder and the long-unsolved 1978 Lufthansa heist at John F. Kennedy International Airport.
Court papers unsealed in New York charge that the men were members of the Bonanno crime family, which also committed acts of extortion and arson, including the airport heist, a brazen crime made famous by the 1990 film "Goodfellas."
The arrests of four men and surrender of a fifth follows a discovery by the Federal Bureau of Investigation of human remains at a New York property tied to James "Jimmy the Gent" Burke last summer.
Burke, the suspected mastermind of the heist, died in prison in 1996 while serving time for the murder of a drug dealer. Actor Robert De Niro played a character based on Burke in the film.
Vincent Asaro, identified as one of the leaders of the Bonanno gang, was charged with the theft of $5 million in cash and $1 million in jewelry from the Lufthansa Terminal at Kennedy on December 11, 1978.
At the time, it was the biggest cash heist ever in the United States. The stolen $5 million would be worth $17.9 million in 2013 dollars, according to the Bureau of Labor Statistics.
The crime stumped investigators for years, but a break in the case came last summer during a search that turned up human remains buried at the home of a relative of Burke.
The indictment charges Asaro with the murder of Paul Katz in 1969, as well as robbery, conspiracy and other charges tied to the 1978 heist.
ABC News reported Katz was killed, and his remains buried, because Burke believed he was working with law enforcement.
Vincent Asaro and a second man reported to be his son, Jerome Asaro, were also charged with stealing $1.25 million in gold salts from a employee of Federal Express.
The three others, Jack Bonventre, Thomas Di Fiore and John "Bazoo" Ragano are charged with multiple crimes including racketeering and extortion for crimes unrelated to the heist, officials said.
Attorneys for the indicted suspects were not immediately available for comment.
The five men are due to be arraigned in U.S. District Court in Brooklyn on Thursday.
