Early Literacy Research - Storytimes
"Snips and Snails and Puppy Dogs' Tails: Every BOY Ready to Read @ your library" Dr. Leonard Sax, psychologist, family physician, and author of Why Gender Matters, presented at the ALA Annual Conference in Washington, D.C., on Sunday, June 24, 2007.
Over 350 librarians attended Dr. Sax's session. Dr. Sax has an unique background as a family practice physician with a doctorate degree in child development, from the University of Pennsylvania. Dr. Sax travels the country and the world speaking to educators and parents, but this was the first time he had addressed a group of librarians. He has a new book being published in August, Boys Adrift.
Dr. Sax cited recent research that shows: Only 1 in 10 boys read "for fun" Boys are disengaging from reading at a much earlier age. Many boys used to stop reading for fun in middle school; it is now around the age of 5-6. Reading for fun has become a marker of gender identity – girls do it, boys don't For white, black, and Hispanic boys, reading is totally "uncool", and boys of these cultures who do read for fun, hide the fact that they like to read from other boys The culture of school has changed in our lifetime. Fellow students looked up to students who got good grades in the past, now, students who get good grades are shunned by fellow students, both male and female.
Dr. Sax then reviewed recent literature in the study of male and female brains of children, something that has only been done in the past 10 years. These findings show: Raising children in an androgynous fashion (Erector sets for the girls, dolls for the boys) does not make boys more nurturing and turn girls into engineers Young girls are not more verbal than young boys Young boys are not more spatial than young girls Differences among the sexes in young children are in the sensory area of the brain, not the cognitive area Girls see and are much more affected by bright colors Boys do not see colors as well Girls have a much greater sense of smell than boys Girls have much more acute hearing than boys. Boys do not hear ambient noise. Ambient noise can bother girls. Boys prefer the room temperature of 69 degrees Girls prefer 75 degrees Girls listen/learn better when then sit or lie down Boys listen/learn better when they stand and/or move around. When boys sit down, they "shut down" These sensory differences continue to be important factors from birth through adulthood Girls "become adults" mentally at age 22 Boys "become adults" mentally at age 30 Boys prefer books and stories about violence and adventure, but if exposed to these type of books, boys do not become more violent, and it does not mean that these boys have suffered abuse or been exposed to violence. Girls prefer books that are "warm/fuzzy/nurturing" and/or romantic. Girls who prefer violent books or stories tend to have suffered some abuse and may exhibit violent behavior.
Dr. Sax showed just a small part of a PBS video about young boys entitled "Raising Cain" to illustrate a few of his points. Dr. Sax has become a convert to the idea of single sex education because of recent research and the many male patients who have been referred to his practice by schools as possible candidates for drugs such as Ritalin. He believes strongly that both boys and girls do better academically and socially in single sex schools where the environment and teaching styles can accommodate the gender differences.
Dr. Sax reviewed the implications of these findings for early literacy story times at the library. In story times where there are both boys and girls, librarians should offer a variety of stories. Boys enjoy an active fantasy life of violence, but it will not "warp them as human beings and may in fact, cause them to act out less violently." Boys need to be up and moving, participating in the story time and making noise. This "boy activity" can be annoying to both little girls and some lady librarians, so instead of offering a story time for boys and a story time for girls, perhaps offer a "Noisy Time Story Time" and "Quiet Time Story Time" and let patrons and librarians choose. Boys may not appear to be listening because they are up, moving around, and not looking at the storyteller, but they are listening and learning. Boys do not care about bright colors in illustrations Women librarians can engage boys in story times just as effectively as male librarians, but boys do not hear low, higher pitched voices well. These findings are not absolute – not all boys are "all boy" and not all girls are warm, fuzzy, nurturing, quiet, and want to sit still and listen.

Hola and welcome to the InterNations Community for expats in Quito! Whether you're due to move or you're a new arrival, InterNations is here to make settling in easier. Many expats in Quito have made use of the wealth of information available here at InterNations, but in our guide articles on Ecuador as well as the local forum. While browsing through the latter, you can find answers to questions like "which are the best Quito neighborhoods to move to?" and "can I find an English-speaking church?". Expats looking for a quiet life with plenty of spare income can try El Centro, while the English Fellowship Church is one possible answer to the latter question. Once you have a little experience of your own, you can begin making contributions to the Quito expat network, too!
With InterNations, you never stand alone. Whether you move to another city or go on a business trip somewhere — our communities are there to make you feel at home wherever you are in the world. Feel free to also check out our other vibrant InterNations Communities like the ones in Hong Kong or Dubai.
Attend our monthly events and activities for Quito expatriates to get to know like-minded expatriates in real life.
Get trustworthy advice and local insights from fellow members in our Quito expat forums.
Quito is a diverse city that offers a blend of olden-day colonial charm and modern facilities. While those who try to live off 2,000 USD a month elsewhere have hardly any spare cash by their next payday, people living in Quito enjoy a luxury lifestyle on a low-cost budget. Expatriates who are looking for work can look at the education sector, whereas those who wish to retire will enjoy comfortable accommodation without wasting their savings. The restaurants in Quito are diverse and inexpensive, too, allowing expatriates to eat out on a shoestring. You can try the Shibumi Sushi Bar while you're feeling healthy or Cyril for an array of amazing baked goods and candies.
InterNations is the largest global network for expatriates, with communities in 420 cities across the globe. Get to know fellow internationals in your city, before you're moving, or when traveling somewhere and never feel like a stranger. InterNations makes it easy for you to stay in touch with your expat friends, both online and offline, so you can grow your network of friends and contacts from all over the world. Whether they live in Shanghai or Singapore, InterNations allows you to be close to them even if they are miles away.
InterNations is the no.1 social network for like-minded expatriates in Quito and other areas of the world. Our experienced members have faced the same cultural adaptations that you're considering, which means their advice is invaluable when it comes to settling in. In addition to information on important issues like relocating, finding schools, and sourcing reliable medical care, InterNations members also have plenty of opportunities to socialize, too. Pop along to one of our regular Quito expat events, or one of our member-organized evenings out, like the bowling and pub night.

Notification of Donors With Positive Microbiology Markers
|The safety and scientific validity of this study is the responsibility of the study sponsor and investigators. Listing a study does not mean it has been evaluated by the U.S. Federal Government. Read our disclaimer for details.

- How to Read a Study Record
Each year around 200 blood donors in the UK are found to be infected with blood-borne diseases (HIV, hepatitis B, hepatitis C, and HTLV), while several others have been identified as having an increased risk of variant Creutzfeldt-Jakob Disease (vCJD). Although the notification procedures for these infections vary, their effectiveness and appropriateness have never been evaluated in a systematic study.
The proposed research has been designed to assess the responses of blood donors to notification and their satisfaction with how they were informed about the infection. The study will be implemented using standard questionnaire-based measures (French et al, 2004; Marteau & Bekker, 1992).
The study will involve approximately 600 blood donors who were informed of an infection or possible infection with blood-borne diseases in 2008 and 2009, and approximately 100 donors notified of possible risk of vCJD infection in 2005. A comparable group of 2005 donors will be included to control for the effects of time. As the majority of donors testing positive donated to NHS Blood and Transplant (NHSBT), the participants will be identified from the NHSBT database only, and their availability confirmed through their GP or specialist clinician. A standardized questionnaire will be then sent to all those identified as eligible.
The study will last 12 months, but direct participant involvement will be limited to the time required to complete the questionnaire, which should take under one hour. To safeguard confidentiality, no identifiable personal data will be used in the analysis. Where demographic or medical information already held by NHSBT is retrieved to minimise response burden, this will be pseudonymised before use.
The study is sponsored by the blood services for England, Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland. The results will be used to inform notification procedures in the future.

This extremely random kit is from Taiwan and is a pore cleanser and blackhead removal kit. These kits are extremely popular in Asia – I have purchased quite a few 3 pieces sets that have a sebum softener, a mask and finishing essence that tightens the pores.
This one is from a brand called Sexylook and features strawberries! Why?! THe blackhead look is known as the 'strawberry nose'.
This 3 piece set contains a sebum softener, a mask that contains straverry polyphenol and a essence:
The process is as follows:
1. Apple the sebym softener – massage for 2-3 minutes. Rinse off.
2. Apply the sebum mask – this is gorgeous and smells of strawberries! Let it dry – it takes 20-30 mins. Pull it from from the bottom upwards, towards the hair.
3. Apply the refining serum.
In total you will spend about 40 minutes on this set. It's not bad as you can just get on with things when the mask is on,
Does this work? Kind of. I noticed it pulled some blackheads out but not that many – just about as much as a pore strip.
Does it leave the skin feeling smoother? Yes! It does feel smoother and cleanser however – this is a big however – it hurts like a motherfu***r to pull out.
Don't be fooled by its pink appearance or the soft strawberry smell. No. This stuff is like glue – the white stuff you had at primary school but it is EVIL, pure evil to pull off.
It absolutely hurt me so much and my skin was red afterwards from it. It felt sore and tender too – OUCH. This is for people with skin that's tough, quite oily, and can put up with this kind of treatment. It is NOT for sensitive skinned girls.
If you are mad about something and feel like punishing someone, apply this to their face and tell them it's 'relaxing'.
Anyway I hated this and I'm too scared to use it again. I'll reserve it for someone who could do with some torturing instead. Like Mr C.
I bought this from eBay for about £12.50 with shipping.
What beauty treatments cause you pain!?

Just how much living-room cabinet space are you going to have to sacrifice when you purchase a PlayStation 3 instead of a Nintendo Wii? Will your 1985 entertainment center fit your Xbox 360 in the same slot as a Nintendo NES? All your questions will be answered if you look at the picture.
More thoughts after the jump.
After seeing the sizes, it's really apparent how small the Wii is. Taking out the next-gen DVD drive and using less-sophisticated hardware may make for a compact box, but in our minds won't affect the enjoyability of the Wii in the least.
And it's also surprising that it's even smaller than the NES, though that console needed a big slot to put the cart into.

(Phoenix, Ariz. - Feb. 24, 2009) Attorney General Terry Goddard announced today that Julio Garcia, 27, a citizen of Mexico, has been sentenced in to four-and-a- half years in prison after pleading guilty to Forgery, a class 4 felony, in connection with the sale of fraudulent identification documents.
Garcia, who had recently served a prison term for burglary under the name of Leonardo Ortiz Leon, was sentenced last week in Maricopa County Superior Court.
Garcia was accused of being part of a counterfeit document ring that operated in metro Phoenix. Garcia sold counterfeit Resident Alien cards and Social Security cards to undercover officers working with the Arizona Fraudulent Identification Task Force. A co-defendant, Carmelino Mendez-Gamboa, was convicted of Facilitating Trafficking in the Identity of Another, a class 6 felony, and last month was sentenced to four months in jail and three years probation.
"The making and selling of fake IDs contributes significantly to Arizona's illegal immigration problem," Goddard said. "We will continue working with the task force to prosecute anyone committing this crime."
Assistant Attorney General Todd Lawson prosecuted this case. For more information, contact Anne Hilby at (602) 542-8019.

My eyes! It feels like if I was hit by a brick, straight into my eye holes, I am not even talking about grammar, this entire post has not a single "." "," capital letter nor space.
Actually I am, unsure if that is a trolling or just somebody young enough, but I would rather go for second option, so…
This would probably be a bit to much direct references and wouldn't pass copyrights so easily so I don't think it is a good idea.
I don't think that qualifies even for a sentence. It's more like a bunch of random words. I guess it makes sense…if you can read it.
ignore him just make the forest zone less hard to go around in
In EBF4 i play the level and…BOOM!BLACK CAT!(god cat )HAHAHAHAHAHAHA!I fight with cat!(5 minutes later) The only thing left is and
Um…what? If you beat god cat, good on you! If you ate god cat, your gonna get indigestion. Here, have a .
I survived real easily
i used the cosmic monalith and left the creator but the destroyer and i was more than him
Lol what the fuck was wrong with me 4 years ago . Anyways eightemperor2000 is actually my old nick and when i wrote these dumb comments i was a 13 year old kiddo and i was really inspired by Matt to try and develop my own drawing style . So here i come 4 years later with much better english and my drawings being much better to thank Matt for inspiring me greatly and for filling my boring and overall sad days with joy back in 2013/2014.
Thank you Matt once again , keep up with great work and cant wait to see EBF5 release! :)
also idk why but i was amazed by these emojis back in 2014 so ill just drop a bunch of them here
I play on . I play ebf1-4 on a cpu. Kupo, kupo, kupo… You made me laugh so hard I couldn't breathe with the EBF series. Also, you make better games than Nintendo. I created a mii of you and the team! Also, EBF5 they should have something absolutley insane like in ebf3. (typing fast) also, evil… # of gold in…. ebf3…. volcano…
i love these games
i hope he makes more
FYI i cant wait 4 bullet heaven 2
J'ai toujour adorer ce jeu! mais depuis un temps mon ordi refuse de charger le jeu !!de plus depuis le temps j'ai du perdre les sauvegarde…JE HAIS CE P.C!!
I've played every 1 of your games up-to-date. (yes, cat cafe) The cat-slap medal
America's timing is not availableh
*plays ebf3* Clearly, this is awesome.
Matt: Derp.
Me: Jump over the water and make it into the volcano!!!
Matt, can you make some of your games like Brawl Royal, Adventure Story and The Kitten Game available on Android and Apple mobile phones?
Good Job Matt! Will there be another sequel of EBF?
Still waiting for EBF 5
Hi.cool games
Minecraft is cool games.A love games
Get on the hype train every one cause EBF5 is confirmed!!!
The time when you accidentally delete your cookies and find that your saves of Normal, Hard, and Epic on EBF3 and EBF4 are gone. Then you realize this means you get to play both games more. Speedrun and dies to a normal enemy after beating two bosses. Finds autosave 12/10 would delete cookies, speedrun and die again.
That reminds, need to get the extended version on steam.
omg so many games to play matt must of been working really hard so… mu.. ch to… play
BulletHeaven is way to fun and Its kinda like a drug
Matt you are one of the best creators your epic with this creativity you should be able to make a animated sires your even better than D.C. and MARVEL to me! Just some inspirational words for you. Bless you and wish you luck
Best game <3
loving this!!!!
but for some reason i beat ebf 2 and 4 but i cant beat 1 and 3
is odd numbers plotting against me
then i shall get my REVENGE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Is there any way that I can download bullet heaven 2 to play offline?
Can i download it without paying?
When will ebf 5 be released?
I have already tried to download bullet heaven 2 to play it offline for free,but I can't.Please tell me if you know how to do it.
Bullet heaven 2 is a great game.I play it on kongregate.But i can't download it and i dont want to buy it on steam.
Just wanted to post to say I absolutely love your games. Played the hell out of 3 back when I had no money and was actually in the middle of moving! Played through it on normal then Epic and finally beat Akron. When 4 came out I marathoned it on kongregate even bought the premium on it and did the extra stuff. Recently I grabbed the game (EBF4) again from steam for the better quality and things and actually started the game from the beginning on EPIC, I am no longer going to play these on anything but epic Difficulty as it gives the best challenge and fun. I played Bullet heaven on newgrounds when it came out and loved it I want to buy 2 on steam but do not have the funds to currently so will be grabbing it when I can :). The only gripe I have with 4 is Anna not as a character but I am so used to just using Lance Natz and Matt that I pretty much neglect her entirely, now you are adding Nolegs as a playable character and that is going to be difficult for me to switch people out. Regardless I am curious what Nolegs will bring to the mix as a playable character and cannot wait for 5 to be released!. Sorry for the long comment just wanted to tell you how much your games have meant to me.
i love bullet heaven it much amazing

i mean its fun
For anybody who has asked or will ask in the future, EBF4, BH2 etc will NOT be available to download for free (EBF3 MAY be possible through steam). The only way to download the game is by purchasing it (either through steam or through other services like humble bundle in which case EBF4 is DRM free). The only way to play it for free is to play it online through Kongregate, Armor Games, Newgrounds or whatever website the game is distributed on. You either buy the game and get all the content, or you play for free. You're not gonna have the luxury of downloading the game for free. How else is Matt gonna make some money? Besides, $10 on Kongregate/$12 on steam isn't that bad actually, especially when it's on sale (up to 50% off).
(sigh) bummer.
Still waiting for EBF5. *sigh*
your Oldest game are not there
Maybe to ba… old for this site
matt, please look your contact mail!!!!!!!!!!!!1
matt is my favourite hes best ever
Oh, man. I just have to say this.
TL;DR: Thank you for making this game. I found it a long time ago, I had zero gaming experience at all, and barely had played even simple flash games. Loved it, but forgot the name. Met a guy, he tried to help me find it. Couldn't. Promised him if we ever found it I would let him show me the wonders of computer gaming. We ended up getting married a couple years ago. Recently by total random luck and chance found the game again – EBF. I now owe my husband a promise I intend to keep. Thanks for making these games. I've only played one so far, but I intend to play them all because I loved the first one so much. You've got so much skill, and THANK YOU. SERIOUSLY.
…Thank you! See, back when I was in an abusive relationship my senior year of high school I randomly found EBF on Newgrounds. I was looking for a simple game as a distraction from a recent spat my then boyfriend and I had been in and was trying to show him that I wasn't "useless and stupid" because I "wasn't smart enough" to play games with him. (Yes, I was young and stupid, I know. ) When I found it, I tried it because it looked cute and simple. I ended up playing it for weeks because I loved it so much! I knew absolutely nothing about RPGs but became almost instantly addicted to it! A couple years later I tried to go back and find it, but couldn't because I couldn't remember the name, just the style of art and game play. I searched but to no avail. Sadface. I never really went any farther into computer games. A few years later I met a different guy well after the end of the previous abusive relationship, and as we were getting to know each other I let it slip that I used to play this RPG style game on Newgrounds that I absolutely adored but for the life of me couldn't remember the name of! As soon as I said this, he became super excited and began ranting about how he loved gaming, but had lost some passion for it since his friends had all moved past RPGs and computer gaming in general. He really tried to help me find it, but I had so little to go on that we never ended up with any results. I told him if we ever found it I would try computer gaming with him, which made him super happy. Years passed, we married , life moved on. Today I hopped online randomly to look for something, found a different game I'd seen someone I like play on youtube, looked it up, found a website that sold it, decided to browse the site because I had some time to burn and I like exploring new hobbies. I'm exploring and I stumble across something called Epic Battle Fantasy 4. …Huh? But… It looks… Familiar… Did some research, found myself here… WHAT?! Well. I guess I get to tell my husband tonight when he gets home from work that he gets to show me his passion for computer gaming finally. xD And I'm going to start by spelling E B F out in bacon .
Bullet heaven 2 is more harder that other ebf games!!!

Best site with the best games on the internet right here!
hello, matt
i love your games, i would purchase some of yours but i literally have no money (6$) and no phone for moneymaking apps and the like. so 2 questions,
1. will EBF5 be avalible as a web game like the others (albeit after steam release) , not including some moves/maps/bosses /ect. but free(i know you said EBF 5 would cost money but all the others have a free version on kongregate )
2. if this game has some sort of premium expansion such as EBF 4's battle mountain (part of the steam one) on the web could that area/stuff be slowly unlocked by beating the game with all bosses on epic? that means i might be able to play those instead just watching youtube of it
i just want to say, i'm 24 and i can't wait for EBF5 ….
Hey Matt, would you mind putting a feature in EBF5 where you can save equipment sets, so you don't have to re-equip stuff when going through certain areas? Or would that be too much trouble? It's fine if if you don't, but I think it would be convenient.

Introduction: About this Strategic Plan
**The below information is from the 2006-2016 UIS Strategic Plan. For information on the current 2018-2028 Strategic Compass, visit https://www.uis.edu/strategiccompass/ **
UIS is in a time of transition.
We are ready for this strategic plan, and it is important that we set the context within which we are crafting it.
Since our merger with the University of Illinois in 1995, we have been in a near-continuous time of transition. We have been stretching ourselves in many ways and have begun implementing major initiatives in recent years.
In 2001 we added the Capital Scholars program, and last year the Board of Trustees approved a plan that will allow for a significant expansion of the freshman class in the fall of 2006.
We also have added 10 complete online degree programs in the past five years; the future of that delivery method remains bright but uncertain as many other universities are reaching out with online educational programs. This is the context within which we deliberated a new strategic plan.
This is the first comprehensive strategic plan for the University of Illinois at Springfield since 1992, when we were still known as Sangamon State University. Our Mission Statement was 13 years old, and our existing Vision Statement was promulgated in 1996. We have been part of the University of Illinois for 10 years, and it is time for fresh planning, new thinking, even "Stretch Ideas" to lead us well into this century.
But first, it is worth noting that in the past 10 years, UIS has convened university leaders (faculty, staff, students, and external partners) three times to plan for our future in a collegial way. It is worth reviewing briefly the context of those efforts, as well as the 1992 strategic planning effort. (Appendix A lists the major planning documents in the history of SSU and UIS. All are available on the UIS web site.)
Strategic Planning, Mission Statement, and the Final Document, Toward 2000.
In 1990, following a directive to all Board of Regents universities, SSU named its first Strategic Planning Task Force and developed its first strategic plan. The strategic planning process spanned 15 months, involving both internal and external constituencies, and focused on the mission of SSU as well as the internal and external forces that could shape its future. Through a series of focus groups and workshops, faculty and staff were asked to assess the institution's strengths and weaknesses. Community members, serving on artistic, cultural, education, minority, private sector, and public sector advisory groups, assessed how well SSU had met the community's past needs and expectations and identified how it could more effectively interact with its immediate environment in the future. Four environmental scanning groups – economic/technical, educational/competitive, political/legal, and social/demographic – considered the potential impact of external influences on future operations. Finally, faculty, staff, and students completed an Institutional Goals Inventory, which provided an assessment of attitudes and values.
A new strategic plan for SSU was presented in March of 1992 in a report titled Toward 2000: A Strategic Plan for Sangamon State University. The mission statement from the plan identified excellence in teaching as the primary mission of SSU. Public affairs was praised as an institutional strength, and the report endorsed "movement over the past half-decade toward self-identification as a university with a public affairs emphasis rather than as a public affairs university" and encouraged SSU to use public affairs as a unifying theme. The report also praised "recent efforts to integrate liberal and professional studies in its baccalaureate offerings."
The strategic plan adopted in 1992 listed several goals that represented the highest priorities for institutional attention and action during the 1990s:
- Enhancement of teaching, advising, and scholarship as well as lifelong learning
- Strengthening the intellectual and cultural climate
- Improving the university's image
- Enrollment management and retention effort
- Pursuit of partnerships with external entities
- Identification of targeted facility and equipment needs
- Pursuit of supplemental external funding
Development Planning Committee and UIS Vision Statement.
We became the third campus of the University of Illinois in 1995 and embarked on a major planning initiative. A committee of UIS representatives became the Development Planning Committee, which was charged with reviewing academic planning in the changed context of its position as a part of the UI system. Anticipating that the institutional planning conducted by the Strategic Planning Task Force in Toward 2000 remained relevant, this strategic planning effort focused primarily on the academic vision and principal foci for UIS.
The Development Planning Committee created a vision statement and reaffirmed earlier recommendations to initiate a full four-year undergraduate program and to develop a doctorate in public affairs. The final report from the committee included analyses and recommendations relating to program strengthening, academic organization, off-campus programs, and academic support, public service, and research.
The new UIS Vision Statement (approved in 1996) affirmed that the UIS of the future would retain teaching as the central function and excellence in teaching as the overriding goal, serving students from the first year of college through completion of the baccalaureate degree. Professional education would continue to be a major feature of UIS' curricular commitments with the principal determinants of graduate program offerings being quality and distinction. In addition, public affairs would continue as not only a unifying theme of teaching, scholarship, and service but in the future UIS' commitment to public affairs would be understood as the campus's "distinctive contribution to the land-grant mission of the University of Illinois." Finally, enrollment growth should be modest and controlled, drawing more students from outside central Illinois, and serving a larger proportion of full-time undergraduate and graduate students. The UIS of the future was envisioned to be a place where lively extracurricular intellectual, social, and cultural life would be recognized and supported as critical to students' learning experiences.
Campus Master Plan.
In 2000, anticipating that campus facilities would need to expand, a new master plan for UIS was developed to guide the long-range use and development of the campus. Expansion was anticipated based on three reasons: (1) an existing space deficit of approximately 53,000 assignable square feet, (2) the considerable amount of academic and athletic space located in temporary metal buildings, and (3) anticipated growth in student enrollments requiring a significant increase in the existing permanent academic facilities.
It was also recognized that a growing residential student population would require an increase in parking facilities, athletic fields, tennis courts, and student residences. Infrastructure organization, including the use of open spaces, was an important consideration. The master plan recommended that new academic expansion (buildings) be located immediately south of the Public Affairs Center, Brookens Library, and the Health Sciences Building, with a new two-story Student Center developed between Brookens Library and the Public Affairs Center. Indeed, UIS secured state funding for a new classroom/office building, which opened as University Hall in the fall of 2004.
The master plan recommended new recreation facilities south of the new academic core, and new residential facilities west of the academic core, with residence halls for first-year students and sophomores located closest to the academic core. Implementation of this plan continues. Lincoln Residence Hall opened for freshmen and sophomores in the fall of 2001, additional town homes opened in 2003 and 2004, and students approved a referendum that will lead to the construction of our Recreation Center. The Recreation Center has received Board of Trustees' approval and is in the design stages. Groundbreaking is anticipated in 2006.
National Commission on the Future of UIS
In 2003, nearly 200 people from the University of Illinois at Springfield and the external community participated in the National Commission on the Future of UIS. That commission issued its final report, A Vision for All Seasons, in October 2003. It included 13 vision statements, one from each of the commission's task forces, but did not attempt to combine them into a single vision for UIS. The task forces and the commission primarily responded to two questions: "Where will we be in 10 years?" and "What do we aspire to be in 10 years?"
The commission's work was intended to – and in fact did – lead to the beginning of a formal strategic planning process late in 2003. Chancellor Richard Ringeisen asked several senior administrators and the chair of the Campus Senate to begin deliberating the best approach to produce a new strategic plan. It quickly became apparent that UIS needed to rewrite its mission and vision statements with a special focus on strategic goals. In September 2004, Chancellor Ringeisen announced the creation of a 23-member Strategic Planning Committee, representing students, faculty, academic professionals, civil service employees, and administrators. The planning process at UIS began moving forward.
The committee began the important task of crafting a strategic plan. Then early in 2005, B. Joseph White became the 16th president of the University of Illinois and announced that the university, its central administration, and all three campuses (Chicago, Springfield, and Urbana-Champaign) would work simultaneously on new strategic plans. These strategic plans would be consistent with the president's strategic plan for the university. Fortunately for UIS, the president's format and process closely resembled the one that UIS was already using. With some modifications to be in accord with the University of Illinois' format and timetable, the UIS Strategic Planning Committee continued its work throughout 2005.
The SPC completed a draft strategic plan in October 2005 and received feedback from committee members, the Campus Senate, the UIS community, and a specially appointed Peer Review Team consisting of respected Springfield leaders. The feedback and fine-tuning process continued in the last two months of 2005.
The result is this document, Creating a Brilliant Future, a new strategic plan for UIS.

We are building a suite of iPhone apps related to the following four areas:
1) Photos/Videos
2) Contacts/Contact information
3) Calendar / Calendar Events
4) Social Networks (which includes Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn, and your phone's contacts)
We'd like 4 separate iPhone app icons for each of these 4 areas. Each icon should be square, with rounded corners, in the typical iPhone app style.
The icons should all match stylistically -- they should look like they go together. They can share common color palettes, design themes, etc -- we just want to make sure they look good together. They don't need to all be the same color though.
We've attached a file with some other app icons that we think are pretty nice. We don't want you to necessarily copy the ideas or styles you see here, but this gives you a general sense of the styles that we think look good. Please feel free to try different thematic ideas.
We'd like these delivered in high resolution layered PSD and also presented at 72x72 pixels for evaluation.

People who buy a PC with Windows 7 in June will be able to upgrade to the final release of Windows 8 Pro for $14.99, according to a report on SuperSite for Windows.
An update is commonly offered to those buying new hardware in the run up to a major new OS release, so that computer sales don't suffer from people holding out for the new version. In the case of Windows Vista to Windows 7 in 2009 it was a free upgrade.
The website says, "the Windows 8 promotion is different. This time around, Microsoft is only offering two mainstream versions of the product to consumers: Windows 8 and Windows 8 Pro. And instead of offering a free upgrade to the version of Windows 8 that most closely matches the version of Windows 7 a user buys with a new PC, Microsoft will this time offering only the higher-end Windows 8 Pro."
At least it is some consolation that $14.99 (if that price is correct) is cheaper than the the full retail price of the OS, which anyone upgrading from XP or Vista will probably need to pay. It is not clear what the UK price would be but we guess it will be about £10-£15.
In other Windows 8 news, Microsoft has officially announced a new parental control feature. It is called Family Safety, in which parents can create a user account for their children and opt to receive weekly email reports showing how much time those users have spent online, recent web searches, most visited websites or games played most frequently.
The controls enable mums or dads to set time limits, as found in other parental control software, as well age filtering for content and so on. The more tech-savvy kids will probably find a way around that but having a feature built into Windows rather than having to download third-party software might reassure some parents (and tabloid newspaper editors).

No Iowa Democrat has ever served longer in the US Senate than five-term Sen.Tom Harkin, an old-school, liberal progressive best known for his early and sustained support for the landmark Americans With Disability Act. His decision to not seek reelection, announced on Jan. 26, gives Iowans their first open Senate race since 1974.
To Republicans, it's also a more likely shot at a turnover, and, perhaps, an early test of whether national Republican groups, such as Mr. Rove's Conservative Victory Project, can dissuade conservatives deemed unelectable from getting into the race or can diminish their prospects.
Iowa is a classic swing state, with a Republican governor and a split congressional delegation: two Republicans and two Democrats in the House, a six-term Republican and a five-term Democrat in the Senate. The state backed George W. Bush, narrowly, in 2004 and Barack Obama in 2008 and 2012.
The high stakes of the 2014 Senate election have put pressure on potential candidates to come to a decision quickly. Four-term US Rep. Bruce Braley, the most likely Democratic nominee, announced on Feb. 7 that he will run for Senator Harkin's seat. He's raised nearly $2.3 million for the Senate race, well ahead of his GOP rivals, according to the Center for Responsive Politics. He also enjoys higher name recognition that all Republican contenders, all but one of whom he leads by double digits.
The Republican primary is more crowded, including David Young, former chief of staff for Iowa Sen. Chuck Grassley; former US attorney Matt Whitaker; state Sen. Joni Ernst; and Sam Clovis, a radio talk show host.
The GOP field is also notable for the absence of Rep. Steve King (R) of Iowa, a leading tea party activist who had been favored to become the nominee. Early on, establishment Republicans tried to ensure that Congressman King would not be the nominee.
"We're all concerned about Steve King's Todd Akin problem," said Steven Law, co-founder of the Conservative Victory Project, in comments to The New York Times. On Feb. 7, Representative King responded in an e-mail to supporters: "Nobody can bully me out of running for the US Senate, not even Karl Rove and his hefty war chest." But in a tweet to followers on May 3, King announced that he would not be running for the Senate in 2014. "A Senate race takes me out of urgent battles in Congress that can't wait until 2015," he wrote.
Tea party groups call the new Rove super PAC a bid to trump conservative grass-roots opinion with a Washington centrist viewpoint that also loses elections. "It's not a war on the tea party," countered Jonathan Collegio, spokesman for another Rove-founded super PAC, American Crossroads, in an e-mail. "Republicans have lost four to seven Senate seats not because of ideas but because of the candidates expressing the ideas," he added. "We're out to find and pick the best candidate."

Men's Basketball Falls to St. Joseph's, 70-65
By ODU Athletics
PHILADELPHIA (AP) - Marvin O'Connor had 22 points as St. Joseph's used an aggressive transition game to gain a 70-65 victory over Old Dominion on Wednesday night (Nov. 29).
The Monarchs committed 20 turnovers which St. Joseph's converted into numerous fast-break layups, including six by O'Connor. Jameer Nelson, a freshman point guard making his first home start, had 12 points, nine assists, four steals and just one turnover for St. Joseph's (4-1), which is off to its best start since 1995-96, head coach Phil Martelli's first season. Damian Reid added 16 points and 10 rebounds for the Hawks.
The Monarchs tied the game at 38 with 17:41 left on a three-point play by Ricardo Marsh. With 8:29 left in the game, St. Joseph's built it to 12, 54-52. With 22 seconds left, Clifton Jones hit one of two free throws to cut it to three, 66-63.
The Monarchs return to action on Saturday night when they host North Carolina State at 7:35 in Scope.
The Monarchs (1-5), who have yet to defeat a Division I opponent this season and are off to their worst start since 1971-72, were paced by 16 points from Andre McCullum and Ricardo Marsh, 11 points from Clifton Jones and 10 points from Pierre Greene.

In order to manage the different types of waste generated by our operations, we have set up tailored approaches to each one of them.
Reducing Hazardous Waste
Hazardous chemicals are used in our ongoing operations, such as in fire extinguishing equipment or paints. In order to reduce the production of hazardous wastes, we continue to explore the introduction of more sustainable products or processes into our operation. We also provide training and updates to staff on the handling procedures for the use and disposal of chemicals, equipment and waste.
Reduce, Reuse, and Recycle Inflight
Onboard, we focus our efforts on sorting and reusing or recycling newspapers, inflight magazines, plastic and aluminum beverage containers and cutlery. We also request that our caterers operate similar recycling systems in their operations where possible.
We also have been examining ways to streamline meals equipment use and reduce leftover food through a careful process of planning, forecasting and consultation with passengers and cabin crew.

Liberty News
Strategic Intelligence Studies Week: Speakers offer tips for job-seekers
Liberty University's Helms School of Government kicked off its first-ever Strategic Intelligence Studies Week on Monday with guest speaker Jim Melnick.
A retired U.S. Army Reserves colonel, Melnick is the director of global threat intelligence at iSIGHT Partners, a risk mitigation and management service provider. He served for 16 years as a civilian analyst in the U.S. intelligence community — and he shared his personal experience Monday afternoon in the Arthur S. DeMoss Learning Center.
"The threats that we face today have changed," said Melnick, whose career has taken him from working with intelligence that helped fight the Cold War to, more recently, combating hackers who might want to get your bank account number.
Melnick's colleague, Josh Work, also spoke to students about the career path – telling them it's definitely competitive but not unobtainable. As the week progresses, students will hear from more speakers affiliated with the FBI, CIA and other areas of the intelligence community.
Helms School Dean George E. Buzzy said the Lord laid the idea for a Strategic Intelligence Studies Week on his heart last fall. Buzzy wanted to provide a jeans-and-pizza atmosphere in which students could hear from intelligence professionals, ask them questions, exchange email addresses and network.
"I was trying to bring in representatives of the civilian and military intelligence agencies, as well as those that work in private companies, to get students thinking about good jobs that pay well but that may not be included in the average 'what I want to do when I leave Liberty list,'" Buzzy said. "Our speakers were drawn from personal friendships with folks in the [intelligence community] and associations we developed with an individual immersed in the field currently."
For the past two years, the school had geared its events toward professionals already working in the field. This time around, Buzzy wanted to inform the students themselves and let them know that the intelligence community offers far more job opportunities than just being a spy.
"The truth is there is a broad range of organizations that comprise the [intelligence community], and there is an even larger number of companies — large and small — that employ psychologists, nurses, business professionals, journalists, information technology, graphics, librarians, costume designers and [those schooled in] the sciences. Just take a look at the FBI and the CIA's websites, and you will see the range of jobs our students can compete for," Buzzy said.
To successfully secure one of these jobs, however, students can't wait until three months before they graduate.
"Especially for the students wanting a career in the intelligence community, regardless of their major, they have to begin thinking about that as a freshman. What you do, where you go, what you post on Facebook, etc., will either help you or hurt you when the selection process begins. Liberty students have a leg up on the competition because we have students with a moral compass. But that can be undone with a bad cover letter, poor interviewing skills, an incomplete [form], and summers spent a the local sub shop instead of securing an internship or volunteering with some organization in the field," Buzzy said.
That's why the Helms School of Government is partnering with LU's Career Center for Strategic Intelligence Studies Week. The school hopes students will follow up with the center's expert assistance in preparing cover letters, resumes and interview skills.
He believes Liberty students are definitely interested in intelligence careers — and more of them are directing their studies toward the field. In fact, the Helms School recently launched a Strategic and Intelligence Studies specialization under the B.A. program, as well as a Strategic Intelligence Studies minor. The Helms School has also partnered with the School of Engineering and Computational Sciences to offer an electrical engineering and software engineering degree with an intelligence specialization, and it has joined forces with the School of Communications to create a crisis communication minor.
In addition to preparing students through this specially-tailored week, the school is also offering professional advice for completing the SF-86 form required for a government intelligence job. This advice session, open to all students, will be held April 4 from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. in the Teacher Education Hall, Room 133. Contact the Helms School of Government to register.
Tuesday speakers offer tips for job seekers
Students gathered in the Helms of School of Government suite on Tuesday as three representatives from Kelly Government Solutions shared their experiences and offered valuable career advice.
John Plummer, a retired CIA employee, started out as a mail courier. Before retiring from the agency in 2007, he worked his way up the ladder as the Director of Business Process Management for the National Reconnaissance Office.
"In the beginning, I was kind of an ordinary guy that stumbled into the intelligence community," Plummer said. "The way I look at it, I was very fortunate to live an extraordinary life."
From the time he began working for the CIA, Plummer dreamed of travelling to East Asia. By the mid-1980s, his dream had come true when he found himself living in such places as Hong Kong and Thailand. While in Asia, he met Peter Brigham, who was assigned to diplomatic duty by the State Department.
In addition to his work with the State Department, Brigham served as a communication specialist in Europe and the Middle East. He later founded an information technology company, assisting the government in various projects.
"There are many entry points into the federal government," Brigham said. "If you are very interested in the government, do some research and see where you'd like to work. Sometimes it's best to stay in an agency where you feel comfortable."
Soon after Plummer's retirement, Brigham introduced him to Michael Carter, a former Marine Corps officer who once served as officer-in-charge of security, a deputy security advisor and special assistant to the President of the United States.
Carter addressed students on the reality of entering the job market.
"The interview process in government in general is very complex," he said. "Once you think you've hurdled all of the tough stuff … there might be someone else that's vying for the same position you don't even know about. You are truly on a competitive playing field."
Also visiting for Strategic Intelligence Week Tuesday was Michael Elliott, who spoke to students in the Arthur S. DeMoss Learning Center. A former supervisory special agent for the FBI, Elliott served as the assistant section chief for the Electronic Surveillance Technology Section.
Former head of National Reconnaissance Office visits Liberty
Liberty University students looking for a contact in the intelligence field received a leg-up on Thursday, March 26, when Col. Jay Chambers, a retired U.S. Air Force officer who was formerly responsible for the National Reconnaissance Office, spoke at the Helms School of Government. Currently Chambers is working as a contractor for the Director of National Intelligence. Chambers' visit was part of the Helms School's first-ever Strategic Intelligence Week.
Col. Chambers told students that a career in the intelligence field would come with sacrifice, but could also be very rewarding.
"You're going to see incredible things," Chambers said.
There are some important guidelines for students interested in entering the intelligence community.
"If you want to serve this nation and you want a top secret clearance, don't do certain things," Chambers said. "That's a lesson for life. Think about what you say and think about what you do if you want to serve this nation."
A DUI, involvement in or viewing child pornography, physically harming people, and illegal phone calls to a foreign country are a few of the major no-no's for students who want to apply for intelligence positions.
The intelligence field is varied, he said. Careers are not limited to government, business or criminal justice majors.
"If you're a media services kind of person that can work in a sound lab or a video lab, and you studied theater or video production, there are jobs out there for you in federal service," Chambers said.
Intelligence departments are looking for hires with many diverse academic backgrounds, including accounting, computer science, mathematics, and web technology and design.
"One of our biggest vulnerabilities is computer-based attacks. You've read about them in the papers, but what you don't read is even scarier," Chambers said. "And if you know budget and you know money, the federal government can use auditors."
Although landing a job at an intelligence agency is not always easy, Chambers said students interested in that field should not be discouraged if they are not hired right out of college.
"I have a cousin by marriage who applied to work at the ICE Agency (U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement), and it took him 18 months before he got a call back. You may have to go out and find other employment while you try to achieve results; the important thing is persistence," Chambers said. "Do not let the bureaucracy dampen your desire because it will if you let it."
Chambers answered many questions about topics such as sharing information between intelligence offices and seeking job venues into the selective field.
On Friday Dr. Jeff Mcillwain, the co-director of San Diego State University's Interdisciplinary Graduate Program in Homeland Security, and Homer Pointer, a member of the President's Intelligence Advisory Board to the White House, spoke to students on careers in their field.

|Finger prosthesis, small, distal
|Mathys AG
|Finger prosthesis, small, distal
|The hands play an important part in our daily lives. But degenerative or traumatic impairments and rheumatic changes can cause severe handicaps. A decisive consideration in the developing of the finger-joint prostheses was to produce a reconstructed joint function that would reproduce the natural function as nearly possible. The cementless RM Finger System has proven itself in more than 30 years of clinical experiences worldwide. The first implantation, on 23 June 1970, was an interphalangeal joint of the thumb. The cementless finger joint prosthesis should enable a near normal reconstruction of the natural function of the joint. These prostheses have a separable hinge with a longitudinal play of 0,7 mm, a lateral excursion of 10, and a rotation of approx. 6. This configuration optimally weeds the functional requirements of the joint. This prothesis is particularly well suited for cases of chronic polyarthritis and traumatogenic joint replacement. The distal and proximal joint components are coated with titanium. A new coating method makes it possible to fix a perfectly adhering pure titanium layer to the joint surface in contact with bone. This improves the direct bony on-growth of the prosthesis.

Mourinho: Terry will earn new deal
Jose Mourinho has told John Terry he will earn a new contract with Chelsea if he maintains his current form.
Terry scored his first goal of the season on Saturday to snatch a point for Chelsea in a hot-tempered London derby against Tottenham which pitted Mourinho against his old protege Andre Villas-Boas.
Terry struggled to gain a regular place in the Chelsea side under Rafael Benitez last year, but the 32-year-old has played every minute of the Blues' Barclays Premier League campaign so far this term.
Chelsea left it until the end of last season before renewing Frank Lampard's contract, but Mourinho insists Terry need not worry about his future at the west London club.
"I think he always has a future the way he is playing - he has a future in here (at Chelsea), in China, or wherever he wants to have a future," the Chelsea manager said with a smile.
"I have always told him from day one - don't speak (publicly) about signing a new contract, just speak about working very hard from a physical point of view so you don't have the same kind of problems you have had in the past two years and then you play regularly.
"He is a very good player and very good players have no problems with their contracts."
Terry cancelled out Gylfi Sigurdsson's opener with a well-taken header from Juan Mata's free-kick.
The goal was a particularly enjoyable one for Terry, who was on the receiving end of abuse from Tottenham supporters throughout.
"I am absolutely delighted. I took a bit of stick here over the last few years so that's for the fans who have supported me over the years," Terry told Chelsea TV.
Tottenham striker Roberto Soldado had a relatively quiet game thanks to Terry and the former England captain offered a calming presence in the face of some pacy attacks from the home side.
Terry played a huge part in Mourinho's first spell at Chelsea, and the Blues boss believes his skipper's confidence is now back to its best.
"I think the fact that he knows that I like him has been important," Mourinho added.
"I trust the player. This is important. In his head he knows if I leave him out I am trying to do the best thing for him and the best thing for the team so he is not under this pressure he was in other years.
"Physically we are working very well with him. I think he is in good condition and he is a brilliant boy."
Fernando Torres will miss Chelsea's game against Norwich next Sunday following his sending-off for two bookings.
The second, which came after he clashed with Jan Vertonghen in the air, was harsh, but the Spaniard could have been given a straight red in the first period for scratching the Belgian defender's face.
Despite the dismissal, Torres had a fairly good game, putting in a full-blooded display against a Tottenham defence holding the joint-best defensive record in the league.
Mourinho thinks the 29-year-old is a much-improved player from the one who flopped so spectacularly in the immediate aftermath of his £50million move from Liverpool.
"On television I used to watch matches of Fernando at Chelsea and it looked to me that he was a bit heavy, a little slow," Mourinho said.
"Now he looks in fantastic shape. And I think he played a very good game against Spurs.
"He knows that I am very happy with his performance."
Chelsea's three strikers are yet to score a league goal this season, but Lampard is not concerned.
"Goals will come for the strikers, you have phases like that," the Chelsea midfielder said.
"Strikers can't always be firing goals in but they might have a patch now where they go and score 20 goals between them in the next 10 games.
"It's an old adage but you don't care who scores if you win games. The way Fernando played at Spurs with his presence, he will score goals and create goals for others."

Malala Yousafzai, the Pakistani schoolgirl who survived being shot by the Taliban, has been invited to Buckingham Palace by the Queen.
The Queen is reportedly impressed by Malala's bravery and has been closely following her progress in Birmingam Hospital, showing keen interest in her recovery. Malala has been invited to a reception hosted by the Queen and the Duke of Edinburgh for Youth, Education and the Commonwealth on October 18. Academics and teachers will also be among the guests at the reception.
The Sunday Times reports that the Queen took such an interest in Malala's recovery that she phoned Pakistan's high commissioner to the UK, Wajid Shamsul Hasan to ask about the state of her health.
The 16 year old is also among the favourites to win the Nobel Peace Prize, which will be revealed on October 11. Speaking to the BBC, Malala said winning the Nobel Peace Prize would be "a great opportunity" but that universal education remained her true goal. She said that she plans to return to Pakistan in the future, but only when she has received a full education and is "fully empowered."
A palace spokeswoman said "We understand that Malala Yousafzai will be attending the Commonwealth Universities and Education Reception at Buckingham Palace".
Malala's book, which includes her first full account of her attack almost a year ago will be released on Tuesday.

This is very strange and probably some registry errors due to a bad install or bad / otudated drivers are causing this
If you are fine with installing windows / drivers on your own, then follow this guide: http://forums.pctweakers.net/showthread.php/62-Lenovo-IdeaPad-Y570-Clean-Install-Guide
Please note that with this guide you may lose the recovery partition, I personally delete the recovery partition as soon as I get the laptop as I don't want none of the bloatware that the manufacturer installs and I want a clean Windows witha clean registry so I can install the latest drivers on my own and have better performance.
Option 2, if you don't want to do this on your own, then take it to Lenovo but you will have to wait till they fix the issue and you probably will get that same laptop with the same bloatware / outdated drivers
I would try to stick to option 1 in my guide, it has step by step instructions with the latest drivers that have been extensively tested to work and give the best performance by me.
Before you do anything, try installing Wise Registry Cleaner from my forums here in this thread: http://forums.pctweakers.net/showthread.php/76-Wise-Registry-Cleaner
Then run it, and clean your registry, then see if the issue is fixed. If not, then you will have to do one of the above
Good luck
Did anyone ever find a fix to this? Im having the same problem after a fresh install. However when i boot using my old hard drive it doesnt happen. I even tried copying the driver using a copy program and still get the same error. I DID Follow your install guide 100%

Morgan Becker snagged a single-game program record 12 draw controls, while also scoring four goals on Friday against Winthrop.
Morgan Becker and Sam Struss notched four goals apiece, but it was not enough as the Liberty lacrosse team fell to Big South foe Winthrop, 19-14, on Friday evening at Liberty Lacrosse Field. In addition to her four goals, Becker snagged a single-game program record 12 draw controls.
With the defeat, the Lady Flames' record drops to 2-14 overall and 1-5 in conference play. The Eagles improve their overall record to 6-10 on the season and even up their league mark at 3-3.
Liberty jumped out to a 2-1 advantage with 10:17 elapsed in the opening stanza. Kallie Britton and Courtney Brown sandwiched a goal each around a score by Winthrop's Jenna Kasmarik.
Kasmarik tallied two more markers, before the Lady Flames' Michaela Rich found the back of the net off of an assist from Kelly Garrett, tying the contest at three apiece with 11:36 remaining until halftime.
Winthrop outscored Liberty 7-1 over the next 9:24 to take a 10-4 advantage. Kasmarik notched two more goals during the run, giving the Eagles' leading scorer five first-half scores.
The Lady Flames ended the first half well, scoring a pair of markers within a 19-second span. Britton and Becker delivered a goal each for the home team, sending the contest to the halftime break with Winthrop leading 10-6.
Liberty struck first in the second half as Sam Struss fired a shot in between the pipes off of a pass from Brown. Struss' second tally of the match pulled the Lady Flames within three, at 10-7.
The Eagles pushed their edge back to five goals at 25:06, after goals from Shannon Gallagher and Kasmarik.
The Lady Flames continued to battle back, reeling off three consecutive scores to cut into the five-goal deficit. Rich notched her second goal of the game and 17th of the year, before Becker registered her second and third tallies of the contest. Becker's third score came on a free-position attempt with 19:31 left in the game.
The back-and-forth affair continued as the Eagles scored a pair of goals in less than a minute, increasing their lead to 14-10 with 17 minutes showing on the game clock.
After both teams traded goals, Nina Dunay scored off of an assist by Kelly Belue at 11:15. Dunay's 20th marker of the season pulled the home team within three, at 15-12, but that was as close as they would get the rest of the contest.
Winthrop outscored Liberty 4-2 over the final 9:39 to earn the 19-14 victory. The Lady Flames' final two scores came from Struss and Becker.
In the statistical line, Liberty grabbed 20 draw controls to Winthrop's 15. The Eagles held the edge in shots, 29-21, ground balls, 16-12, and caused turnovers, 9-5.
Kasmarik finished with a game-high seven goals, while teammate Gallagher had a contest-best five assists and four ground balls. Rich and Winthrop's Paige Jenkins each caused a pair of turnovers to lead both teams.
In goal, Liberty's Kristen Masullo denied seven shots, while Camille King registered four saves en route to the victory for the Eagles.
The Lady Flames wrap up the regular season on Sunday with a home contest against Longwood at 1 p.m. Prior to the game, Liberty will honor its four seniors, Dunay, Jillian Krick, Masullo and Jen Moyer, as part of Senior Day activities.

Josh Stowers (pictured below), who is a junior at Mount Carmel High School in Chicago, was the MVP of Wednesday's Double Duty Classic at U.S. Cellular Field, which brings together elite inner-city players from all over the country to celebrate the history of the Negro Leagues. Stowers, who is committed to play at Louisville, articulated a genuine understanding of that history:
"I can't really imagine what they went through, because I don't really experience it nowadays. I go to an integrated school and there's no racism at all, but it just shows when they experienced racism, they really had to turn the other cheek. They couldn't say anything back, and even if they didn't really do anything, they would still get punished."

Developed and maintained by Vince Wooll and Aladar Barthi, Jomres was initially conceived in early 2005 as a Mambo based solution to a client's hotel management needs. While it wasn't originally expected to be an online booking system it quickly morphed into one as users requested more and more features.
As the number of feature requests grew Vince knew that he would need to dedicate more time to the project and in July 2005 Jomres was formally released as a commercial project. Since then, Jomres has become one of Mambo's, and now Joomla's, longest running projects. It has survived various versions of Mambo, then Joomla 1.0, 1.5, 1.6, 1.7, 2.5 and 3.
Aladar joined the project in 2010 after using Jomres for his own projects. He was active on the forum, helping other members of the community and eventually Vince invited him to join the team. He has since become an integral part of the project and has contributed significantly to it's development over the years.
Whilst not formally part of the Jomres project, Rodrigo Rocco and the team have become firm friends. Rod is a freelancer who specialises in doing custom work for Jomres users and developing custom plugins for the system that take advantage of it's modular design. He has built many useful extensions including his fabulous new Valentina Template Package.

Boulder locals have long flocked to the twice-annual GoLite warehouse sales, where the Boulder manufacturer and retailer of outdoor clothing and equipment sold its goods at prices often waaaay below retail.
I have spent several sub-freezing early weekday mornings standing in line for the doors to open while cradling a mug of coffee. The deals, for me, were too good to pass up — I'd flock to the samples racks, where I'd nab, for example, shirts that sold for $80 for $10.
Now, however, GoLite is opening stores, including a new one on Boulder's Pearl Street Mall (see above).
Will the warehouse sales continue? It's unclear, according to a GoLite employee. Either way, the stores run sale prices on select items all the time. Tuesday morning, for example, I found great running shorts that were $45, then marked down to $32, and now on sale for $22 (still more than I want to pay, but a good deal).
