BRISTOL, Tenn. – On Thursday, Jan. 24, King College's Student-Athlete Advisory Committee (SAAC) will host the third annual Make-A-Wish Night as part of the King Tornado Men's and Women's Basketball home game against conference rival, Limestone College of Gaffney, S.C. The funds raised during the event will go toward granting a wish for a local youth, Kellan.
"This will be our third annual Make-A-Wish Night sponsored by SAAC," said King senior Kelsey Copeland. "The past two years have been very successful. We raised around $1,200 each year. This year, we are making a few changes that will hopefully lead to greater amount of funds raised.
"For the first time, we are sponsoring a specific Wish Child," continued Copeland. "In the past, all the money we have raised has been donated to the Make-A-Wish Foundation, but, this year, we are "adopting" Kellan, a five year-old little girl from the Tri-Cities Area. We are hoping to grant her wish of going on a Disney Cruise or to Disney World (she hasn't decided between the two yet)."
"Kellan was diagnosed with medulloblastoma, an aggressive malignant brain tumor occurring mainly in children, on March 22, 2011," said her mother Sarah. "After a CT scan revealed a four cm tumor, Kellan had a craniotomy at LeBonheur in Memphis on March 25, where the doctor was able to resect the entire tumor. She was then moved to St. Jude for four months of inpatient chemo, six weeks of focal radiation, and then came home for six more months of outpatient oral chemo. During her treatment, Kellan battled nausea, vomiting, fatigue, extreme weight loss, joint and nerve pain, as well as the infections and issues that come with any chemo treatment. Despite all of the pain and illness she faced, she had a great time at St. Jude, and is always excited to return for scans. It is an amazing place--the kids really do have FUN while they are there.
"Kellan's most recent scans showed no evidence of disease--she is currently scanned every three months, as medulloblastoma has a very high recurrence rate, and will be scanned at varying intervals until she is 18," Sarah continued. "She has some mild hearing loss, joint pain, and sinus issues as a result of her treatment, but nothing slows her down. She is a happy, healthy, thriving kindergartener with very little memory of being ill, thanks to St. Jude. Make-A-Wish has provided our family with something to look forward to during Kellan's scans. We are so excited to be able to take a trip as a family to celebrate Kellan's miraculous recovery and to enjoy the time we have together."
During the two basketball games on the Jan. 24, the SAAC hopes to raise awareness as well as funds to grant Kellan's wish. "Money from the gate/admissions and the concession stand will be donated, along with the money raised from t-shirt sales and personalized Wish Stars," said Copeland. "The signed Wish Stars will hang in the gym along with posters and other decorations to show our support for Kellan. As special guest of the evening, Kellan will serve as the honorary captain of both Tornado basketball teams.
Kellan's grandmother shared, "These kids with cancer and other catastrophic illnesses go through so much. It touches my heart to experience first-hand the outpouring of caring concern from the community as they surround the kids, and their families, with prayers, love, and support to make their journey as little easier. Make-A-Wish gives them an opportunity to make happy memories in the midst of challenging days."
King's Make-A-Wish evening on Jan. 24 will begin with women's basketball at 5:30 p.m., followed by men's basketball at 7:30 p.m. In addition to the Make-A-Wish event, King is also honoring active military and veterans. In a show of appreciation, active military/veterans, along with their families, will receive free admission with proof of military identification.

A Boiling Springs man accused of attempting to murder three people must wait another day to learn his fate.
A Boiling Springs man accused of attempting to murder three people must wait another day to learn his fate.
More than four hours after jurors began deliberating Wednesday, they asked Circuit Judge Derham Cole to allow them to leave for the evening and resume deliberations today.
Bryan Marion Holder, 21, of 925 Wesley Court, Apt. 29, is charged with three counts of attempted murder and possession of a weapon during the commission of a violent crime.
The prosecution asserts Holder randomly targeted victims and shot at them with a 30.06 rifle equipped with a scope about 1:30 a.m. July 2.
A bullet pierced the passenger side door of a Mazda Miata parked outside the Raceway gas station at 8671 Asheville Highway in the Springfield community.
Bonnie Raines, then 19, was sitting in the passenger seat. The bullet tore through one side of her body before it hit the center console. Bobby Swigert Jr. was sitting beside Raines.
A third victim was pressure washing concrete at the Ingles Gas Mart across the highway. He testified Tuesday he heard gunfire, including two shots near him.
Holder's co-defendant, Mattison Tyler Schomer, 18, of 124 West Drive, Spartanburg, pleaded no contest last month to three counts of attempted murder and receiving stolen goods in connection to the incident.
Holder's attorney, Chris Thompson, has suggested Schomer was the triggerman, concocted stories to pin the blame on Holder and sold the 30.06 rifle for marijuana so he wouldn't be linked to Raines' shooting.
The 30.06 rifle was one of several firearms stolen from a home on Bethesda Road days before the shootings. Money, electronics and other items also were stolen. Holder admitted to stealing the items.
There was testimony that another stolen gun was fired in the same field. That gun and stolen ammunition were later found in Schomer's possession.
Thompson said in closing statements that Holder "owned up" to being in the field several hundred yards from Asheville Highway, target practicing with the gun that a forensic firearms expert said in court was the one that fired recovered shell casings near the crime scene.
Holder testified Tuesday that he wanted to shoot the gun, which he planned to sell.
Holder said he and Schomer went to a field near Schomer's home. Holder claimed he took aim at a metal, free standing sign and the lid of a five-gallon drum, but denied shooting at people.
Thompson asked jurors not to let one of Schomer's "false" statements result in a guilty verdict. Schomer admitted in court to changing his story five times.
Thompson told jurors that based on where the bullet hit the car — an officer testified he thought the bullet entered 14 to 16 inches above the ground — that the shooter was lying down.
Thompson pointed out that Schomer provided previous testimony that Holder was standing up as he shot at people.
Thompson said Schomer had the rifle in his possession several days after Holder was arrested on the theft charges.
Seventh Circuit Solicitor Barry Barnette held up the 30.06 before jurors.
"This gun was used to shoot at all three individuals that night," Barnette said.
Holder testified that he did not look through the scope on the gun, but Barnette said there was no metal site on the gun to aim with.
"(Holder) was the shooter," Barnette declared.
Even if jurors believed the defense's assertion that Schomer was the shooter, Holder, Barnette said, aided and abetted him.
"The hand of one is the hand of all," Barnette said.
Barnette said Holder was "the one in control."
It was Holder, Barnette said, who placed calls to people after stealing items to get a ride and help moving the guns. Holder also admitted he asked one witness to change a police statement against him in connection to the larceny.
Even if Holder is found not guilty of attempted murder, he could be convicted of other crimes.
Jurors could find him guilty of assault and battery of a high and aggravated nature in the shooting of Raines, and guilty of first-degree assault and battery for the other two victims who were not shot.
An attempted murder conviction carries up to 30 years in prison; assault and battery of a high and aggravated nature carries up to 20 years; first-degree assault and battery carries up to 10 years.
Jurors will resume deliberations at 9:30 a.m. Thursday.

LSU Hangs On To Defeat Arkansas, 20-13
Tharold Simon #24 of the LSU Tigers runs the ball against the Arkansas Razorbacks at Razorback Stadium on November 23, 2012 in Fayetteville, Arkansas.
The LSU Tigers concluded their 2012 regular season schedule on Friday, defeating the Arkansas Razorbacks, 20-13, in SEC action in Fayetteville, Arkansas.
The Tigers scored first, as kicker Drew Alleman nailed a 49-yard field goal, capping off a four-play, eight-yard drive, that took 1:46 off the clock, giving LSU a 3-0 lead at the 4:45 mark of the first quarter.
LSU extended their lead to 10-0 at the 1:12 mark of the second quarter, when quarterback Zach Mettenberger hit Jarvis Landry with a 22-yard pass, capping off a nine-play, 76-yard drive that concluded the first half scoring.
Arkansas put up their first points of the game at the 10:32 mark of the third quarter, on a John Henson 25-yard field goal, cutting the LSU lead to 10-3.
The Tigers came right back on their very next possession, and scored on a one-yard run by Jeremy Hill, giving them a 17-3 lead at the 9:03 mark of the third quarter.
The Razorbacks then responded with ten unanswered points. Quarterback Tyler Wilson hit Mekale McKay with a 28-yard scoring strike at the 5:52 mark of the third quarter, cutting the LSU lead to 17-10, before Henson was good on a 17-yard field goal at the 12:17 mark of the fourth quarter, making it 17-13, LSU.
Alleman later hit a 27-yard field goal at the 1:26 mark, giving LSU a 20-13 lead, and wrapping-up the scoring.
The Razorbacks had one final chance to score, and got the football all the way to the LSU 18-yard line, but time ran out, and the Tigers held on for the seven-point win.
Arkansas was able to out-gain LSU, in terms of total yards, 462-306, but also turned the football over two times.
Mettenberger led the LSU offensive attack, completing 16-of-29 passes, for 217 yards, and one touchdown, while Wilson paced Arkansas in a losing cause, completing31-of-52 passes, for 359 yards, along with one touchdown.
With the win, LSU ends their regular season with 10-2 overall record, and a 6-2 SEC mark, while Arkansas fell to 4-8 overall, and 2-6 in league play.

Junior duo want back-to-back titles
This weekend is what the Lady Hornets have been waiting for all season: the 7A State Tournament Championship.
And in order for the defending champs to be successful Saturday against its 7A Central foe North Little Rock, the Lady Hornets will need big games from their pitcher-catcher combo, juniors Peyton Jenkins and Jessie Taylor.
The 17-year-old "beats," as head coach Debbie Clark affectionately calls them, have led the team in the field and at the plate.
Taylor, the team's catcher, has a .511 batting average, hitting safely 46 times in her 90 trips to the plate. On the season she has 11 home runs (the same as last year) and 41 RBIs, scoring 37 times herself. She also has a .654 on-base percentage, walking 11 times and striking out only four times.
Jenkins, last year's championship game MVP, has a .367 BA, hitting safely 29 times in 79 at bats, while walking 14 times (giving her a .458 OBP). In 26 games and nearly 150 innings pitched, Jenkins has a 10-2 record with a 1.20 ERA and 208 strikeouts.
"They are both unbelievable competitors," Clark said. "They do not settle for mediocrity, and they hate to lose. They are probably the first two players who come to my mind when I think of 'beasts.'"
Clark's term of endearment is an acronym standing for best, extra, attitude, student and teammate: five characteristics she stresses to her team.
"It is amazing how they understand each other and can almost read each other's mind on the field," she said.
Taylor said, "Peyton and I have been playing together for such a long time that we just know how the other is. We know how the other plays and how the other will react in certain situations. ... When I call a pitch, Peyton was probably already thinking the same thing. That's just how in sync we are when we're on defense."
Jenkins said, "Jessie is strong and very reliable teammate and friend. She has more passion for the game than anyone I know. She never gives up, even when it's the hardest of times, and always strives to be the best."
Bryant (23-6, 12-2 7A Central) advanced to the championship game Monday by beating Fayetteville 2-1 in the 7A State Tournament semifinals in Bentonville.
Both players said they are excited to be playing the championship game — especially against North Little Rock, who beat Bryant in the championship game their freshman year and beat the Lady Hornets twice this year during the regular season.
Taylor said, "They are a good team. They have some great athletes, and I definitely respect them. They're one of those teams that you can't take lightly at all.
Jenkins said, "[North Little Rock] is a strong, well coached, all around solid ball team. They beat us my freshman year in the state championship final game. It was the worst feeling in the world. We don't want that to happen again."
Taylor added, "I wouldn't want it any other way. I know what it feels like to be the runner up, and it's not fun. Also being a state champion adds pressure because it kind of puts a target on our back. And I really like that. I love pressure."
Jenkins said, "I feel like we accomplished what we have worked for all year."
Recalling what it was like to win the state championship last year, Jenkins said she was "overwhelmed with great emotion. It was defiantly one of the most memorable moments of my life."
Taylor said, "It was amazing. We, as a team, wanted it so bad! I think we all realized, especially in that fifth inning, that we didn't get that far just to get that far. We weren't satisfied.
"And when it finally happened, and I was running out to the mound for the infamous dogpile, it all hit me. We were state champions. It's honestly the best feeling ever."
Their head coach, who described both players' swing as "textbook," said, "They are strong, but both have a soft side."
"Peyton always wants to know that I made it home safe after late games and worries about me and my family. Jessie helps coach her little sister's softball team and is wonderful with her little brother."
Jenkins said, "Playing for coach Clark has been an awesome experience. She knows the game like the back of her hand. She pushes us mentally and physically to be the best we can be. Playing for her has made me more than a better player, but a better person. Her stories and speeches are both motivational and inspirational."
Taylor said, "Playing for coach Clark has been/is a great experience. She spends so much of her time and effort on being there for us and pushing us to be the best we can be — physically and mentally."
Clark said, "They understand the game, and they know how to teach the game. They have amazing instincts. They are tough, tough, tough!
"They have taught me about power and have made a lasting impression on my life. They are J.T. and P.J., and I am blessed to be their coach."
For Taylor, being a member of the Lady Hornets has been a lifelong dream.
"I remember being a little girl and coming and watching the Lady Hornets play softball, and all I could think about was how it would feel to be out there — to be a Lady Hornet.
"And now I am, and I finally know what it feels like. It's an amazing feeling to be able to represent my school for the past three years, and I can't imagine playing high school softball anywhere but Bryant High School."
Jenkins said, "I would never choose to play for any other team in the state. I love my coaches and girls way too much. We've been through a lot together and built a lot of new traditions the past three years.
"I'm very proud and honored to represent Bryant at the state tournament championship for the third year in a row."
Both girls are equally as proud of their teammates — especially the junior varsity players.
Taylor said, "The girls are amazing. We've really come together as a team. There isn't one girl on the team that isn't different from all of the rest, but we still put all those differences aside."
She said, "I'm so proud of the JV players. They don't play varsity, but that doesn't mean they aren't a huge part of this team. They push the starting line up so hard in practice everyday to get better, and then cheer us on in games.
"The girls on this team are all amazing people, and I couldn't have asked for better teammates."
Jenkins said. "Every girl on the team is completely different. We all have our own style, personality and ways of going about the game. Every girl on our team has great heart and work ethic. When we are all together we know how to put our differences aside and become a unit. We knew if we couldn't do that then we would never be where we are today.
"Every girl on our team is not only an amazing ball player but an amazing person and friend."

(Reuters) - The "death machine" used by the late Dr. Jack Kevorkian in assisted suicides will be among the items up for auction in an estate sale in late October, according to the sale's coordinator.
Kevorkian, known as Dr. Death for helping more than 100 people end their lives, died in June at the age of 83.
He started a polarizing national debate over assisted suicide by crisscrossing Michigan in a rusty Volkswagen van with a machine to aid sick and suffering people who wanted to die.
The sale will be held October 28 at the New York Institute of Technology in New York City, with a preview October 27, according to the website of David W. Streets, a California fine arts and celebrity memorabilia appraiser coordinating the sale for Kevorkian's estate.
Included at the auction will be Kevorkian's blue sweater, personal items, paperwork, and 13 paintings that have been on display at the Alma Museum in Boston, according to Streets.
Kevorkian left the bulk of his estate to find a cure for pediatric cancer, and the auction will benefit that cause, the web site said.
Kevorkian was convicted of second-degree murder in 1999 after a CBS News program aired a video of him administering lethal drugs to a 52-year-old man suffering from Lou Gehrig's disease. Kevorkian served eight years in prison. As a condition of his parole, he promised not to assist in any more suicides.

NEW YORK — The stock market is all about jobs this week.
Stocks rose Thursday after unemployment claims fell to a five-year low. A day earlier, it was just the opposite: The market slumped after companies added just 119,000 jobs in April, the fewest in seven months, according to payroll processor ADP. And stocks could swing again Friday when the government's closely watched monthly employment report is released.
"Everyone is looking to the April jobs numbers," said Tyler Vernon, chief investment officer at Biltmore Capital. "People are more confident that it was an anomaly last month and are looking for some bigger numbers."
Economists forecast that the employers added 160,000 jobs last month.
Stocks slumped April 5 when the government said 88,000 jobs were added, less than half the number forecast.
Signs of increased hiring have supported this year's surge in stocks and pushed the market to record highs. The run-up has started to falter in recent weeks on concerns that the global economy is slowing. More jobs should boost consumer spending, a key driver of U.S. growth.
The Dow Jones industrial average on Thursday rose 130.63 points to 14,831.58, an increase of 0.9 percent. The index lost 138 points a day earlier. The Standard & Poor's 500 index climbed 14.89 points, or 0.9 percent, to 1,597.59, also recovering almost all of its losses from a day earlier. The technology-heavy Nasdaq composite index advanced 41.49 points, or 1.3 percent, to 3,340.62.
Applications for unemployment benefits fell last week to 324,000, the fewest since January 2008, the Labor department reported before the market opened.
The outlook for global growth also got a boost after the European Central Bank cut its benchmark interest rate a quarter of a percentage point to 0.5 percent.
Higher profits from CBS, Facebook and other companies also lifted stocks Thursday.
Broadcaster CBS reported a 22 percent jump in first-quarter earnings as big events such as the Super Bowl pushed advertising revenue higher. Its stock rose 95 cents, or 2 percent, to $47.35.
GM rose 98 cents, or 3.2 percent, to $31.16 after it lost less money in Europe and beat Wall Street's expectations for first-quarter profit. The automaker's earnings of 67 cents a share beat the 54 cents predicted by Wall Street analysts who follow the company.
Facebook gained $1.54, or 5.6 percent, to $28.98 after its first-quarter revenue rose 38 percent, surpassing Wall Street expectations. Nearly a third of the company's advertising revenue came from mobile devices, a greater share than analysts had expected.
The social-networking site bucked the trend for companies reporting in the first quarter. Most are exceeding analysts' expectations on earnings, but falling short on revenue.
"If we continue to see several more quarters like this, investors would start to get nervous," said Andrew Milligan, head of global strategy at Standard Life Investments. He says that growth needs to pick up in the major export markets, like China and Europe, for U.S. companies to maintain earnings growth.

Manchester Crimewatch: Teen girl accused of threatening mom, sister
December 26. 2012 11:20PM
MANCHESTER - Jessie Dustin, 17, of 411 Kennard Road, pleaded innocent Wednesday in Circuit Court-Manchester District Division to two charges of criminal threatening and one of criminal mischief.
Dustin is accused of telling her mother and a sister: "I'm going to slit your throat." She is also accused of punching a hole in a door window.
Conditions of Dustin's $1,000 personal recognizance bail bar her from contact with either alleged victim and bar her from the Kennard Road home.
Trial was set for Feb. 27, 2013.
Nintendo unit was stolen
Andrew J. Millien, 24, of 438 Belmont St., pleaded innocent Wednesday in Circuit Court-Manchester District Division to misdemeanor charges of receiving stolen property and theft by deception.
Millien is accused of selling a Nintendo unit, that was reported stolen, to a pawn shop on Lake Avenue for $35.
Conditions of Millien's $1,000 personal recognizance bail bar contact with the owners of the Nintendo and pawn shop.
Trial was set for Feb. 28, 2013,
Felony forgery, theft charges
A New Boston man could enter no plea Wednesday in Circuit Court-Manchester District Division to felony charges of forgery and theft by unauthorized taking; a probable cause hearing was set for Jan. 9, 2013.
Frank Ducharme, 38, of 191 Riverdale Road, is accused of forging the owner's name on a vehicle title and then removing the vehicle, which he later sold.
Ducharme objected to the $5,000 cash/surety bail requested by police prosecutor Lt. Ron Mello.
But Judge William Lyons, citing Ducharme's criminal history of forgery and theft, would only lower the cash/surety bail to $3,000.
Victim wants contact
David Gadsby, 32, of 376A Kennard Road, pleaded guilty Wednesday in Circuit Court-Manchester District Division to two misdemeanor charges of simple assault and one of criminal threatening.
According to the charges, Gadsby was intoxicated when, during an argument with his girlfriend, he pushed and grabbed her, causing her to fall to the ground, and kneed her in the stomach. He also said he was going to hurt her.
Police prosecutor Lt. Ron Mello said the victim, who wanted contact with Gadsby, was in agreement with the terms of the negotiated plea. Gadsby was sentenced to six months in the House of Corrections, all suspended for two years of good behavior, and required to undergo a domestic violence evaluation with an approved provider and follow any recommendations for treatment.
Can't go back to residence
Bail conditions for Delise Griffis, 45, of 5 Clifford Ave., bar her from that residence. Griffis pleaded innocent Wednesday in Circuit Court-Manchester District Division to a misdemeanor charge of simple assault that alleges she kicked her boyfriend in the groin Tuesday at the Clifford Avenue residence.
Bail was continued at $500 personal recognizance with conditions that also bar contact with the alleged victim. Trial was set for Feb. 27.

By Harriet McLeod
CHARLESTON, South Carolina (Reuters) - South Carolina Governor Nikki Haley said on Friday she would not appoint herself to the Senate seat being vacated by fellow Republican Jim DeMint.
DeMint, a leading conservative voice, said on Thursday he was resigning to run the Heritage Foundation, a Washington-based think tank.
As governor, Haley can name herself or someone else to fill the seat until a 2014 election that would decide who will complete the last two years of DeMint's six-year term.
"I will make this decision in a manner that is thoughtful and dignified, but also quickly," Haley said in a statement.
"I will not take the appointment myself." she said. "I will appoint a person who has the same philosophy of government that Jim DeMint and I share."
Speculation about who Haley, who is seen as a rising political star, might choose has included Republican Representative Tim Scott. Like Haley, Scott was elected in 2010 with support from the anti-big government Tea Party movement.
The State newspaper in Columbia, South Carolina, reported that DeMint, who has been in the Senate since 2004, told Haley he wanted Scott named his successor. It cited sources close to DeMint for the story.
Scott, whose coastal district includes Charleston, has been one of the most conservative members of Congress. If appointed, he would be the first black senator from the South since the late 1800s.
Scott's office had no immediate comment.
Republican Senator Lindsey Graham also will be up for re-election in 2014, but the seats will be listed separately on the ballot, said election commission spokesman Chris Whitmire.

The Ford Hall Forum at Suffolk University presents John Rosenthal and Charlton McIlwain, with Edward Powell, discussing "Guns Don't Kill People; The Media Kill People" from 6:30-8 p.m. Thursday, March 21, in the Moot Court Room of Suffolk Law School, 120 Tremont St., Boston.
The media shape how we see things and have framed the national conversation on guns as "pro-gun vs. anti-gun" despite most perspectives being much more nuanced. Moderator Edward Powell, executive director of the Boston Foundation's StreetSafe Boston, shines a spotlight on how the media's view of reality exacerbates gun violence. He speaks with John Rosenthal, founder and chair of Stop Handgun Violence and a gun owner, and Charlton McIlwain, associate professor of Media, Culture, and Communication at New York University's Steinhardt School of Culture, Education, and Human Development, to identify how TV, Internet, and newspaper reporting paints an inaccurate picture of how guns affect communities of color and engages in fear-mongering that fails to prevent further tragedies.
The Ford Hall Forum is the nation's oldest free public lecture series. It promotes freedom of speech and fosters an informed and effective citizenry through events that illuminate the key issues facing our society.
The forum presents knowledgeable and thought-provoking speakers, including some of the most controversial opinion leaders of our times, in settings that facilitate frank and open debate.

TOULON, France (AFP) – World Cup winning South African wing Bryan Habana admitted the lure of the European Cup and Top 14 rugby had proved too much as he completed his move to Toulon.
The European champions have finally got their man after a long courting process that began back in 2008 when president Mourad Boudjellal met Habana's father.
And the maverick president continues to build a side that many other squads would look enviously towards.
Winning the European Cup last season, in an upset final success against Clermont, is not enough for Boudjellal, who envisions dominating French and European rugby for years to come.
That success was tempered anyway by a Top 14 final reverse at the hands of unfancied Castres.
And 30-year-old Habana said it is exactly such an ambition that attracted him to the south coast of France.
"For a lot of southern hemisphere players the Top 14, the English league and the H-Cup (the European Cup) have become very exciting," he said.
"Toulon have been progressing for the last 3-4 years, it's an ambitious club that won the H-Cup. They've laid the foundations and for many players it's an attractive club."
Following his move from Cape Town's Stormers, Habana was officially presented to the press on Wednesday.
But he said this was a move that had been long in the making.
"I've been in contact with Toulon for quite a while. I've known Mourad for a long time and I've been speaking with (head coach) Bernard Laporte since last season.
"I signed a contract in January and since then I've been supporting the team from a distance.
"I was able to enjoy their fantastic season, even though they missed the last step (by losing the Top 14 final).
"It's important to set yourself objectives. There are some high calibre players here who make that objective exciting."
One of the main selling points for a move to Toulon for the 2007 world champion is that it will not rule him out of South Africa duty, unlike the case for New Zealanders and Australians.
"I've also come here with the 2015 World Cup in mind as I'm leaving the door open to that given there's no rule that excludes South Africans playing abroad from selection."
Habana will be in good company with the likes of fellow Springboks Bakkies Botha, Danie Rossouw and Joe Van Niekerk also on Toulon's books, alongside England legend Jonny Wilkinson, Australian Matt Giteau and Italy prop Martin Castrogiovanni.
"It's true there are a lot of big names here and that will facilitate my transition because I need to adapt to a new environment and a new challenge," added Habana.
"But the (foreign) players who come here are not at the end of their careers, this are top international players who still want to achieve great things.
"You have to work hard to wear this shirt."

Kanz Mobile Kitchens: For Camping & Beyond
There's a hierarchy when it comes to outdoor cooking. At one end you have toasting marshmallows on a stick you found in the woods, and at the other end you have Kanz kitchens, stoves and pantries. They're as functional as they are pretty and they win the bear resistent seal of approval — no really, that's a thing! There's a cool green seal and everything!
Although you are perfectly able to camp outside without using a full out kitchen, it really makes life easier when you have one. These great pieces from Kanz are aimed to make your wilderness (or even tailgating) experience smooth and a little less like you're roughing it.
Each kitchen or pantry comes in marine-quality aluminum that make it rugged and light, which in turn makes them practical and easy to carry. You can buy just the shell and outfit things yourself or pick one up with a stove (either propane or duel fuel) already in it.
There's also a pantry that's bear proof and sure to make your goodies off limits and will help keep them out of your camp. In addition there's all sorts of accessories like cutting boards and work tables that can be added. They make camping look even more appealing, now if only they could get rid of the mosquitoes!
• Field Kitchen K120 Series: from $595-$795
• Field Pantry: for $645

"He Drinks Poison ranks among the great thrillers of all time," says Pamela King Cable, author of Televenge.
Raleigh, NC (PRWEB) November 20, 2012
Readers who found Yann Martel's mix of fantasy, spirituality and darkness so compelling in Life of Pi can enjoy the same blend in Laine Cunningham's latest novel He Drinks Poison. The story follows a South Asian-American FBI agent as she tracks a prolific serial killer. While she deals with her past, the Hindu epic The Ramayana comes to life in the Allegheny Mountains. Only by accessing the power of the dark goddess Kali can she bring down the killer who embodies the demon king Ravana.
"He Drinks Poison ranks among the great thrillers of all time," says Pamela King Cable, author of Televenge, Library Journal's top pick for 2012. "Through sparkling prose, the story sparks fury and tears. It is impossible to read this book unmoved."
Cable's own first novel deals with the darkness found even among those who are considered intensely spiritual. She calls Cunningham's work "disturbing yet fascinating," the same mix that made Martel's work resonate with so many readers.
Priya Conlin-Kumar, a South-Asian American FBI agent, was conceived when her American mother was gang-raped in India shortly after marrying a Hindu man. Despite the fact that Priya's name means "beloved," the knowledge that she was created by an act of violence influences her decision to become a sworn officer.
When Priya is assigned to the FBI's Wheeling, WV location, she begins experiencing visions from the Hindu epic The Ramayana. Two killers are prowling the region. Cole Bennett, a thirty-something blue-collar worker, is a serial rapist who kills his victims in order to avoid capture. Quinn Lawrence, a furniture dealer, is a classic serial murderer. He is also the ten-headed demon king Ravana.
The body that proves Priya's two-killer theory is soon found lying on a sari beside an offering tray filled with rupees. As the killings continue, Lawrence uses the trappings of different Indian festivals to send her messages. Priya confides in Ohio County Sheriff Randal Pierson, a man who becomes her lover. Meanwhile, the visions manifest themselves in physical ways—a drop of blood, a feather, a flame-red asoka flower from the demon king's garland.
She also has visions of Shiva, the god who destroys the corrupt world then makes it anew with his great Tandava dance. In Hindu thought, male and female energy must combine for either to be effective. As Randal and Priya grow closer, their intimate passions build those same energies. Finally Priya's anger, the righteous anger Hindu warriors must feel if they are to be victorious, explodes. Kali enters Priya.
Although Kali's visage is horrific, she is the wrathful mother who defends her children from harm. By then so much of the ancient tale has come alive that an army of demons hides in the forest. During the final battle, she brings Lawrence to justice in a way that satisfies both the law of man and spiritual law. The resolution allows her to make some peace with the suffering of her family. The book ends with the single word beloved.
He Drinks Poison has been compared to Silence of the Lambs but on a whole different level. "Using metaphors and visions from Indian mythology as a framing device," says Martin Smith, President of Pencil Point Mountain, "it becomes not just the tale of a monstrously brilliant serial killer pursued by a dogged FBI agent dealing with her own past but a battle in the ongoing war between Good and Evil."
The novel was shortlisted for the Pirate's Alley William Faulkner award before being picked up by Sun Dogs Creations. The creation of the novel was supported by residencies and grants from the prestigious Vermont Studio Center and Wildacres, an arts and humanities center. The e-book is available from all major distributors like Amazon, iBookstore, Barnes & Noble, Sony and Kobo. Additional outlets include Baker & Taylor, Copia, Gardner and eBookPie.
Cunningham's other novels include the award-winning Message Stick. Gabriel Branch, a biracial Aborigine, faces a powerful shaman in the Australian outback to discover the truth about his best friend's disappearance. The work won two national awards that ranked Cunningham alongside Pulitzer Prize winning authors like William Styron and Horton Foote. More information on her first novel and the companion book of essays, Seven Sisters: Spiritual Messages from Aboriginal Australia, can be found at http://www.LaineCunningham.com. She can be reached at 919-928-2245.
Cunningham is also a publishing consultant. She owns Writer's Resource, a company offering ghostwriting, rewriting and editing services as well as book proposals and marketing for fiction and nonfiction authors. The company's website is http://www.WritersResource.us. Their toll-free number is 866-212-9805.

Older News » Taking medication to schoolLast updated 10:55 AM on 15 September 2011
A reminder for any students that need to take medication at school
Throughout the school year, it's important to remember the process involved if your child needs to take medication at school.
When a medical practitioner has prescribed medication that must be administered during the school day, parents are responsible for:
- bringing this need to the attention of the school
- ensuring that the information is updated if it changes
- supplying the medication and any 'consumables' necessary for its administration in a timely way
- collaborating with the school in working out arrangements for the supply and administration of the prescribed medication. See role of parents
The administration of such medication forms part the Department's common law duty of care to take reasonable steps to keep students safe while they attend school. This duty of care is fulfilled through its staff members.
Key points to remember:
- Parents of children who require prescribed medication to be administered at school must complete a written request. The principal will provide the form to the parent. If parents have difficulty in completing the form they should ask the principal for assistance.
- Students must not carry medications unless there is a written agreement between the school and the student's parents that this is a planned part of the student's health care support.
Please note: Students' immediate access to prescribed medication is very important for the effective management of conditions such as asthma. Students and parents need to be advised of this requirement so that students are not left without access to critical medication.
- It is the principal's responsibility to fully inform relevant staff of the management implications of students requiring the administration of prescribed medication.
- Except in an emergency, only individual staff members who have volunteered and been trained, will administer prescribed medication to students.
- The principal will oversight implementation of the course of action that he or she has determined is necessary for the support of the student's health needs.
- It is the principal's responsibility to ensure that all copies of the written medical advice and any other relevant documentation are stored in a secure and confidential manner.
- Advice or further information to assist the principal can be obtained from student welfare consultants and disability programs consultants.
Self administration of prescribed medication by students
The common law duty of care does not extend to administering prescribed medication to students who are reasonably able to self administer.
However, if a student self administers prescribed medication the Department has a duty to take reasonable steps to ensure that the self administration is carried out safely.
Note re Emergency Care
Schools do not generally supply or administer medications in an emergency unless they have been provided by parents as part of the negotiated individual health care plan for a specific student.
In an emergency which has not been anticipated in the emergency/response care section of an individual health care plan, staff will provide a general emergency response, eg call an ambulance. Where an emergency response requires the immediate administration of medication to prevent serious illness or injury, staff should administer the medication eg Ventolin for a first asthma attack.
Non-prescribed medications
In general, schools do not administer medication which has not been specifically requested by a medical practitioner for an individual student for a specific condition. In some cases the medical practitioner may not write 'a prescription' for such medication because it may be available 'over the counter'. NSW Health advises that this does not mean that the medication is not potentially harmful and that schools should follow the same procedures for such medications as for 'prescribed medications'.

U.S. regulators have given the green light to the manager of the Empire State Building to ask investors to vote on a plan to fold the iconic building into a new real estate investment trust (REIT) that eventually will be publicly traded.
After months of review, the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission signed off on the documents allowing Malkin Holdings LLC to solicit investors in the Empire State Building to vote on the plan for the building to be the centerpiece of more than 18 properties in Empire State Realty Trust Inc, according to a filing Wednesday.
Continue Reading Below
"Malkin Holdings will commence its solicitation of investors in due course," a Malkin Holdings representative said in an email.
The REIT proposal has divided the Empire State investors. Some believe Malkin is getting too much from the split of the ownership at their expense, while others support the plan as a way to cash out of a long-term investment they inherited from parents and grandparents.
The 2,824 investors hold 3,300 units that originally were sold for $10,000 in 1961 in Empire State Building Associates, the company that owns the building. The investors were divided into three groups holding 1,100 units per group. The REIT plan requires the approval of holders of at least 80 percent of the units in each of the three groups.

This time its the opposition political parties who are trying to spread fear, capitalizing on the political climate of the country and trying to destabilize the economy. The government's inability to market their reform agenda is being exploited by the power hungry opposition which is claiming amongst many other things, that there has been travel warnings issued against the country by Britain. Nothing can be further from truth. Here is the exact wording of the travel advice issued by British Foreign and commonwealth office:
"Following a period of political unrest within the Maldivian Parliament (Majlis), there have been a number of political protests and demonstrations in Malé, predominately outside Government buildings and political figures' residences. Social unrest is possible and there is a risk demonstrations might become violent. You should exercise caution and avoid any large political gatherings."
This is no travel warning, its common sense and it applies well to locals as well as to British nationals to avoid large gatherings.
The US State Department also keeps a list of countries where their citizens are warned not to go. The list is here: and its doesn't mention Maldives anywhere.
Haiti 06/24/2010
Israel, the West Bank and Gaza 06/20/2010

Mali 11/19/2009
Uzbekistan 06/16/2009
However the extensive use of media to propagate these sorts of lies and fear propaganda will ultimately have its effect and the authorities are well advised to finish off this issue with incarcerating the local mafia bosses on whose behalf the opposition politics is advocating. The naivety of the government in allowing these corrupt Mafiosos has had its effect and much blood was shed in this small city of Male' just because they exploited the liberal policies of the government for their own advantage. The government's hand is in fact bound by its own liberal polices and sweet talk of democracy and values but where there is a need to show force it shall be used. As for the incarcerated mafioso's, its common knowledge in Maldives for over a decade that Yameen is the acknowledged boss of local Mafia in Maldives.

Mal Moore stepped down as athletics director at the University of Alabama on Wednesday.
TUSCALOOSA — Mal Moore stepped down as athletics director at the University of Alabama on Wednesday.
Moore, who has been hospitalized since March 11 with a pulmonary condition, will become a special assistant to Alabama president Judy Bonner. Moore was originally admitted to Brookwood Hospital in Birmingham, but was later transported to Duke University Medical Center in Durham, N.C. Last Friday, Alabama sent out a press release that said Moore was "resting comfortably" and undergoing tests at the North Carolina hospital, but the school has not released any information on his condition since.
"As many of you may know, due to factors related to my health, I am at a point that I can no longer fulfill my duties as athletics director in the true championship manner the position requires," Moore said in a statement released by the school. "While I have to focus on my health issue, I look forward to maintaining an ongoing working relationship with this great university as special assistant to Dr. Bonner. I know I can count on each of you to continue your unequaled support for me and the University of Alabama.
"I cannot adequately express what the university means to me. It has been a part of my life for more than 50 years, and I feel honored to have served the Crimson Tide as a player, coach and administrator.
"I am so appreciative of the university administration, coaches, staff, student-athletes and fans who have made my tenure as director so very meaningful, memorable and special."

Cabinet members follow Obama's lead on pay
Secretary of State John Kerry will follow President Obama's lead and give back some of his pay as some department employees face furloughs, his spokeswoman said Thursday, as other members of the Cabinet also moved to show support for employees facing pay cuts because of sequestration.
Kerry plans to give five percent of his salary to a charity for State Department employees, spokeswoman Victoria Nuland told reporters.
That comes after Attorney General Eric Holder said earlier Thursday that he will give back some of his pay if his department needs to furlough its employees.
"What the president did, I think, is right given the fact that some federal employees may have to be furloughed, which means a pay cut," he said in an interview with "The Tom Joyner Show."
Since Kerry and Holder committed to give away some of their pay, spokespeople for Homeland Security Secretary Janet Napolitano and Treasury Secretary Jack Lew told POLITICO their bosses would be making contributions to charity.
If there are furloughs at the Justice Department, giving back some of his pay is "certainly something that I would consider," Holder said. A Justice Department official clarified that if there are furloughs, he will take a pay cut equal to the maximum amount any department employee has to take -- 14 days during the current fiscal year.

The White House said Thursday that the president plans to cut monthly checks to the Treasury equal to five percent of his annual salary in a sign of support of federal employees facing furloughs. That announcement came after Defense Secretary Chuck Hagel and his deputy, Ash Carter, said they would be giving back some of their pay. Certain presidential appointees' salaries aren't affected by sequestration.
Education Secretary Arne Duncan may take a similar path if his department needs to furlough employees, a spokesman said. "If/when we get to that point, I'm sure Arne will consider it, but nothing's been decided as of today."
At other agencies where there have been furloughs, leaders have already opted to take pay cuts.
Housing and Urban Development Secretary Shaun Donovan and his deputy, Maurice Jones, "will be donating an amount equivalent to their furlough day salaries to either an industry related non-profit or returning it to the U.S. Treasury," spokesman George Gonzalez said.
And there is "a general consensus among the other seven Senate confirmed staff at HUD that they will do the same," he added. "HUD leadership understands that the effects of sequestration should not only be felt by families with limited resources to whom HUD provides services."
The Environmental Protection Agency's acting administrator, Bob Perciasepe, has donated 32 hours -- the amount of time that employees are being furloughed between April 21 and June 15 -- of his salary to the Federal Emp

Broncos' Chris Kuper, Willis McGahee, Justin Bannan, Joe Mays in tough times
Free agency is usually accompanied by the excitement of new talent and new possibilities.
But it's also a bittersweet time in the NFL because with every new player who is acquired, another player has probably lost his job.
The Broncos reached an agreement Tuesday with right guard Louis Vasquez. He's a promising addition as he's large (335), talented (four-year starter in San Diego) and young (25). But Vasquez's arrival also puts Chris Kuper's place on the team in jeopardy. Kuper is a six-year starter on the Broncos' offensive line. He is the O-line's leader. And he's a real good guard when healthy.
But with a $4.5 million salary due in 2013 and coming off two surgeries on his left ankle in the past 13 months, Kuper was vulnerable.

Pinapple Coconut Muffin Recipe
The main reason I baked these muffins is that I had leftover crushed pineapple from our recent Vietnamese beef fondue party. The more romantic reason I tell my husband Lulu is that I'm always thinking about him and I want to please him all the time. Given his sweet tooth, Lulu always enjoys a hot cup of fruity white tea and a few sweet treats, so I think he'll fall for it .
The muffins are flavored with pineapple, coconut and lemon chocolate chips.

Pan-Fried Kingfish Recipe
If you look back at the seafood recipes I've posted, you'll see that I love deep-fried fish. Whenever fresh pieces are available at the market, I don't hesitate to cook one to golden perfection, and today I found a beautiful yellowtail kingfish. I marinated it with a lot of fresh garlic, ground fennel, soy sauce, parsley and lemon juice, then transferred it into a combination of garlic powder and flour. The whole fish was pan-fried until crispy golden and placed on quenelles of smoky, spiced eggplant mash.
I accompanied the kingfish with sautéed angel hair pasta. Making this dish is effortless and doesn't require a lot of time. Enjoy the bounty of seafood that's available at your local market!

Tuna Melt Recipe
Yesterday was a day filled with special events. As you may know, it was Martin Luther King Jr. Day and Inauguration Day and I made sure the entire festivities were recorded on my DVR. But if you're involved in the specialty food business, yesterday was important for another reason. It was the second day of the Winter Fancy Food Show at Moscone Center in San Francisco.
It's the second year in a row I've attended this event, and I've had so much fun discovering what the latest food trends are. I can't wait to share with you what I've learned! I also met the manufacturers of some of my favorite products, such as California Lavash. They are a bread company that just went through a beautiful design makeover in which I participated.
It was great to see Lilea and the California Lavash team at booth #503 (you can still see them today), and I was so proud of how the backdrop turned out. I food-styled all the dishes and the photos were my contribution to the new look of this delicious product.
It seemed only fitting to share one of the delicious sandwiches featured at the California Lavash booth. I selected the tuna melt, which is perfect choice for the season. A combination of tuna, artichoke, olives and cheese is the filling of the delicious warm sandwich. Give this a try with California Lavash Sangak bread and you won't be disappointed! Sangak bread is a sesame-studded Persian bread that is part of their new flatbread product line. You'll be able to see the new packaging design in stores in a few months.

WASHINGTON (AP) — Gio Gonzalez pitched eight sparkling innings and Ryan Zimmerman tied a career high with four hits and drove in three runs as the Washington Nationals roughed up the Chicago Cubs without recently traded Jeff Samardzija for a 13-0 victory Saturday.
Jayson Werth and Anthony Rendon added three hits and two RBIs for the Nationals on a day the Cubs were forced to start Carlos Villanueva (4-6) following the trade of Samardzija, the scheduled starter, and Jason Hammel to the Oakland Athletics.
Washington posted a season high in runs and hits (19), including eight doubles but no home runs.
Gonzalez (6-4) allowed four hits, while striking out seven and walking one. He's now thrown 29 consecutive scoreless innings against Chicago and 22 overall.
CINCINNATI (AP) — Matt Garza threw a two-hitter for his fourth career shutout, and the Brewers ended their four-game losing streak by beating the Reds.
Aramis Ramirez singled home a run in the first inning off Homer Bailey (8-5), who gave up seven hits through eight innings. Two Brewers were thrown out at the plate.
Garza (6-5) has been one of the Brewers' best starters lately, going 4-1 in his last seven games. He retired the first 12 batters in order before Brandon Phillips led off the fifth with a single for Cincinnati's first hit.
He allowed two walks and fanned nine while going the distance for the first time this season.
Right fielder Ryan Braun struck out swinging in the first inning, and then left the game in the second with spasms in his lower back.
DETROIT (AP) — Tampa Bay's Chris Archer came within two outs of a complete game, holding the Tigers to six hits.
The Rays broke the game open with three runs in the fifth inning and four in the sixth, and the Tigers never mounted much of a rally against Archer (5-5). The 25-year-old right-hander allowed solo homers to Alex Avila in the seventh and J.D. Martinez in the ninth.
Anibal Sanchez (5-3) took a no-hitter into the fifth, but things unraveled quickly for the Detroit right-hander. He allowed seven runs and six hits in 5 2-3 innings, with four walks and a strikeout.
Logan Forsythe homered for Tampa Bay.
ST. LOUIS (AP) — Pinch-hitter Jeff Baker's RBI hit with two outs in the ninth inning helped Miami rally to beat the Cardinals.
Casey McGehee fouled off five full-count pitches from Cardinals closer Trevor Rosenthal (0-4) before getting the tying hit.
Christian Yelich's three-run homer off Seth Maness in the sixth began Miami's comeback from a four-run deficit that snapped the Cardinals' three-game winning streak.
Mike Dunn (6-4) worked a scoreless eighth and Steve Cishek finished for his 19th save in 21 chances.
DENVER (AP) — Drew Stubbs hit a two-run homer, Jorge De La Rosa pitched six strong innings before giving way to a shaky bullpen and the Rockies broke a five-game slide by holding off the Dodgers.
The Rockies are 3-16 since June 16 — with De La Rosa (9-6) accounting for each win. The lefty allowed two runs and three hits, all in the first inning. He then watched the bullpen almost completely unravel.
The Dodgers turned this into a game with a five-run seventh, but Adam Ottavino put the brakes on the rally.
Dan Haren (8-5) gave up a season-high eight runs in 5 1-3 innings.
PITTSBURGH (AP) — Edinson Volquez allowed one run in seven sharp innings and Andrew McCutchen hit a two-run homer in the first to lead the Pirates to a victory over the Phillies.
Volquez (7-6) had an RBI groundout with the bases loaded in the second inning.
David Buchanan (4-5) found his stride after the second and kept the Pirates at bay until he was lifted in the sixth. Philadelphia's starter was charged with three runs and six hits and a walk.
Marlon Byrd stranded five men on base in his first two at-bats but homered in the ninth.
Cody Asche homered in the fourth for Philadelphia.
ATLANTA (AP) — Andrelton Simmons drove in four runs, Aaron Harang won his third straight start and the Braves beat the Diamondbacks for their season-high ninth straight victory.
Justin Upton added a two-run homer and a third RBI for the Braves, who have won 11 of 12 and are 11 games over .500 for the first time this season.
Harang (8-6) has a 3.00 ERA over his last three starts after allowing nine hits and four runs with one walk and one strikeout in eight innings.
Arizona, which has dropped eight of 12, lost its 53rd game, most in the majors.
Atlanta took a 7-3 lead with a five-run fourth off Mike Bolsinger (1-5).
CHICAGO (AP) — Brad Miller hit an RBI double in the 14th inning, and the Mariners beat the White Sox for their fifth win in the last six games.
Michael Saunders reached on an infield single against Ronald Belisario (3-5) and swiped second before Miller hit a drive into the gap in left-center for a ground-rule double.
Tom Wilhelmsen (1-1) pitched two scoreless innings for the win and Fernando Rodney got three outs for his 25th save in 27 chances.
Logan Morrison and Michael Saunders had three hits apiece for Seattle, which has won 11 of 14 overall. Felix Hernandez pitched eight sharp innings for the Mariners.
MINNEAPOLIS (AP) — Yankees catcher Francisco Cervelli made a throwing error in the 11th inning that allowed Josh Willingham to score from second base, giving the Twins a victory over New York.
With the bases loaded, Trevor Plouffe hit a dribbler to reliever Matt Thornton (1-1). The left-hander flipped it to Cervelli for the forceout at home.
Cervelli then tried for the double play but his throw sailed way over the head of first baseman Mark Teixeira.
The victory snapped a seven-game home skid against the Yankees and was just Minnesota's fourth win against New York in 17 games at Target Field.
Brian Duensing (2-2) pitched around a Carlos Beltran single in the 11th.
BOSTON (AP) — Nelson Cruz went a career-best 5 for 5, including a solo home run and a bad-hop single that scored the go-ahead run in the sixth inning, and Baltimore beat Boston to split a day-night doubleheader.
The Red Sox won the opener on Jonathan Herrera's one-out, broken-bat RBI single off T.J. McFarland (1-2) in the bottom of the ninth inning. Boston closer Koji Uehara (4-2) pitched a perfect ninth to keep it 2-2.
In the second game, Cruz had two doubles and was thrown at third in an attempt for the cycle in the eighth. Nick Hundley added a two-run homer in the second game as Baltimore overcame Boston starter John Lackey's 11 strikeouts over 5 2-3 innings.
Lackey (9-6) was charged with five runs and 10 hits.
Stephen Drew homered in both games for the Red Sox, who have lost four of five. Drew hadn't homered since Boston's World Series clinching Game 6 win in October.
Brad Bach (3-0) and four other Baltimore relievers combined to shut down Boston in the second game after Ubaldo Jimenez gave up four runs, five hits with six walks while getting 11 outs.
Lester allowed two unearned runs and five hits in eight innings, striking out seven with no walks.
NEW YORK (AP) — Robinson Chirinos hit an early three-run homer, Adrian Beltre connected again and Texas beat the New York Mets to end a six-game losing streak.
Alex Rios had three hits, including an RBI double off longtime Texas nemesis Bartolo Colon in a four-run first, and Colby Lewis (6-5) pitched six steady innings to help the Rangers win for only the third time in 17 games.
They snapped a 10-game skid on the road, their longest since a club-record slide of 12 games in 2003, with their first win away from home since June 16 in Oakland.
Travis d'Arnaud homered for the Mets, who have dropped five of six and eight of 10. David Wright had a double in four at-bats as he returned to the lineup after missing seven games with a sore left shoulder.
Colon (8-7) went seven innings but lost his second consecutive outing after going 6-0 with a 1.58 ERA in his previous seven starts.
CLEVELAND (AP) — T.J. House allowed three runs over 6 2-3 innings for his first major league win to help Cleveland top Kansas City.
House (1-2) scattered nine hits, struck out three and didn't walk a batter. The rookie left-hander made his eighth appearance, and seventh start, of his career.
Michael Bourn's leadoff homer sparked a three-run third inning, and Nick Swisher's bases-loaded single scored two runs in the fifth and finished Jeremy Guthrie (5-7).
Guthrie had won his last three decisions and lost for the first time since June 6.
Michael Brantley had three hits, including an RBI single in the eighth, for Cleveland.
SAN DIEGO (AP) — Brandon Belt hit a two-run homer in the 10th inning to give San Francisco a win over San Diego.
Belt, in his second game back from the disabled list, homered off Dale Thayer (3-3) after Hunter Pence led off with a double. Belt, who missed 50 games with a broken thumb, hit his 10th homer of the season into the right-field stands.
Michael Morse homered leading off the ninth inning against Padres closer Huston Street to tie it 3-3. That broke a streak of 23 consecutive saves for Street, the longest run in the majors.
Sergio Romo (4-3), recently demoted from the closer role, earned the win. Santiago Casilla got the final three outs for his second save in five chances.
San Francisco won for just the sixth time in 24 games and broke San Diego's season-high, five-game winning streak. The Giants, who had been shut out in three of their previous five games, scored more than two runs for the third time in 11 games.
San Diego had been 29-0 when leading after seven innings.
OAKLAND, California (AP) — Josh Donaldson hit a home run, Scott Kazmir allowed three hits over seven innings, and Oakland beat Toronto.
Coco Crisp, Craig Gentry and Jed Lowrie drove in runs for the A's, who won their third straight and seventh in 10 games.
Kazmir (10-3) won for the fifth time in six decisions. He walked two and struck out eight, improving to 6-1 in eight home starts.
Edwin Encarnacion drove in a run in the first inning for the Blue Jays and then had to leave the game with right quad soreness.
Mark Buehrle (10-6) pitched well but remained winless in six starts since June 1. He gave up three runs and 10 hits over six innings. Buehrle walked one and struck out three. He had a four-game winning streak against the A's end.
Toronto is 2-7 in its past nine games and has dropped five straight on the road.
ANAHEIM, California (AP) — Albert Pujols hit a go-ahead, two-run home run, and C.J. Cron and pinch-hitter David Freese also homered against the Houston bullpen in the Angels' eight-run seventh inning as Los Angeles earned its ninth straight home win.
Pujols' 511th homer tied him with Mel Ott for 23rd place on baseball's career list.
Houston starter Scott Feldman left after six innings with a 5-2 lead and was replaced by Anthony Bass (1-1). Cron greeted Bass with a leadoff single before Freese batted for John McDonald and hit his first homer in 124 career at-bats at Angel Stadium and first in the majors as a pinch-hitter.
Michael Roth (1-0) pitched two perfect innings of relief for the victory after rejoining the Angels from the minors earlier Saturday. Los Angeles is a season-best 14 games over .500 and remains 3 1-2 games behind AL West-leading Oakland.

Clouds and rain may be the prevailing weather forecast for Western Washington, but more and more people are realizing that solar power has a bright future here. In the past few years, more than 5,500 Puget Sound Energy customers have installed their own solar-energy systems. And the number of people going solar continues to grow.
It's not just our region's long and sunny summer days that suit the generation of solar-powered electricity. Solar panels can produce power (at lower levels) even under the Puget Sound's gray, wintery skies.
Sunlight hits two layers of semiconductor material, producing a difference in electrical potential, or voltage, between the layers. The voltage then drives current through an external electrical circuit.
Our customers not only are generating electricity to light their homes and businesses, but many earn net-metering bill credits from us when their solar systems produce more power than the customers are using.
To help demonstrate the viability of solar power in the Northwest, PSE built one of the region's largest solar arrays in 2007 at our Wild Horse Wind and Solar Facility, in Kittitas County. The installation can produce up to 500 kilowatts of power.

I am still plugging away at Wheelocks. I picked up the Audio CDs as well as Grotes book which is a big help. I am trying now to wrap my head around Cases. I have two questions regarding sentence 12 from the Sententiae Antiquae
12. Quid cogitas?—debemus iram vitare.
According to the teacher's guide this translates to
"What are you thinking?—we ought to (must) avoid anger."
Would I have been correct to translate Quid cogitas? as "What do you think?" or is there a subtle difference i am missing in congugations between the two.
Secondly, I am not entirely clear on why iram takes the singular Accusative case and not the plural since it is *we* who must avoid anger.
Many thanks in advance.

RIO DE JANEIRO (AP) — The chiefs of police in Sao Paulo were replaced on Monday as Brazil's largest city emerged from a bloody weekend and authorities struggled to contain a wave of violence that has doubled the murder rate in recent months.
Sao Paulo state security chief Fernando Grella, who took over the job four days ago, replaced the chiefs of the civil and military branches of the police and vowed to work closely with police, put more officers in the streets of Sao Paulo and investigate every murder.
There will be daily meetings among the heads of police departments, Grella said in a prepared statement, explaining the goal of this close collaboration is to develop strategies to combat the wave of violence that has rocked the massive city for months now.
"We're going to work intensely to reverse the homicide rate in the state to what it was months ago," he said. "We are not discarding any measures."
The murder rate has risen for months. October saw 150 murders — a 92 percent jump from October 2011. The violence continued the weekend following Grella's appointment. According to the newspaper Estado de Sao Paulo, 15 people were shot to death on Saturday and Sunday.
The deaths include execution-style killings of civilians and police officers, many them by hooded men on motorcycles. In the first nine months of this year, 94 police officers were killed in Sao Paulo, most of them off duty. A total of 982 homicides took place in the city during this time.
Investigators have said the police murders are being orchestrated from behind prison walls by leaders of a group called the First Capital Command, Brazil's strongest, best organized criminal gang. Security experts say the PCC, as they're known because of their Portuguese initials, is likely lashing out after the government started to transfer gang leaders out of state and crack down on drug sales in the city's outskirts.
Working from within Sao Paulo state prisons, the group organized several waves of attacks on police, government buildings, banks and public buses in 2006. Those assaults and counterattacks by police resulted in at least 175 deaths, including police officers, dealers and innocent bystanders.

Dudley classrooms, media center are all shiny and new
Students move into remodeled classrooms.
Standing outside Dudley Elementary's newly remodeled upper-level classrooms Tuesday morning, fifth grader Bryce Young was excited to go inside.
Bryce and several other Dudley students had just cut a ribbon signifying that the $690,000 building project was finished.
"I think it's really fun going into the new rooms," she said.Since school started on Aug. 18, she and other students—in the fourth, fifth and sixth grades—had attended class in different rooms throughout the school and at the former 100R Attendance Center because the project wasn't done.
Last Friday, they didn't have school at Dudley so teachers could move into their rooms as well as the media center.
Fifth-grade teacher Becky Costello described the renovation as a tremendous opportunity to teach in a great environment.
"We have quality teachers in Gothenburg...and it's a great building to do great things in," Costello said.
During an earlier interview, superintendent Mike Teahon said he could describe the project as the perfect storm if he wanted to.
Teahon said the timing of the decision to go out for bids last May by school board members couldn't have been better.
At the time, members were betting that a stagnant economy may work in the district's favor with lower commodity and construction prices.
They were right.
Paulsen Inc. of Cozad, the low bidder, offered to renovate 3,000 square feet of Dudley Elementary's upper-class rooms and the media center for $37.21 per foot compared to new construction estimated at $120 per square foot.
Through careful planning which started five years ago, Teahon said the board saved the district $300,000.
"The plan was designed and on the capital improvement list so we were ready to address it and react to the market," Teahon explained.
Paulsen's bid $570,000 to remodel fifth- and sixth-grade classroom pods and the media center which boosts the number of classrooms from 10 to 12.
Also included in the plan is a conference room and four small testing areas as well as remodeled bathrooms to accommodate five stalls each for boys and girls.
With $50,000 in construction contingency costs, $68,000 in architecture and engineering fees and $2,000 in miscellaneous expenses, the project total is $690,000.
Special building and qualified capital improvement funds will be used to pay the bill instead of a bond issue.
More importantly, Teahon said the renovation addresses district needs in the elementary such as keeping classroom sizes small.
"We feel the smaller classes provide a more effective learning environment for kids," Teahon said.
By keeping classroom size between 10 to 20 students K-2, districts also receive more money through state aid.
Teahon said the district maintains a long-term capital improvement plan to do projects like the elementary remodel and keeps a working relationship with DLR to maintain the plan.
DLR Group of Omaha is the architect employed by the district.
"This allows us to partially fund projects so we can address needs as they evolve," he said.
