This can not be found on http://www.digitalzen.org at this time. An HTML version will be published on The DigitalZen in the near future.
I suspect it's not as well refined as it seems to me at the moment. I'm rather spaced out, so if you notice any errors please let me know so I can correct them. Also, the section on resizing iFrames to fit their content was written much later than the surrounding information - so if it seems like it's written differently than the rest, there's a reason for that.
And now, without further ado...
- Tutorial: Inline Frames
This tutorial deals with Inline Frames, which are also known as iframes.
Firstly, lets discuss how to create a basic iframe. First, well start with an example:
The above is a basic iframe. The name is important for referencing links to pages you wish to appear within the iframe. That will be discussed in a moment. The src link will be the default page for the iframe to load initially. The message between the iframe opening and closing tags will not appear in most instances, but will be displayed if a user is viewing your site in a browser that is not iframe compatible.Code: Your browser does not support inline frames or is currently configured not to display inline frames.
Now lets demonstrate how one would link page.html to appear within the iframe. This can be done as follows:
As you can see, the target is defined as iframe1 which matches the name of the iframe as defined above. Now when Click Here is clicked on, the page.html will open within iframe1. Simple, eh?Code:Click Here
Resizing Inline Frames
- Resizing an iFrame to fit the height of the screen
Now there are a few problems with iFrames. One of these is the fact that you cannot set them to resize height and width to fit the screen using normal HTML. There is a way around this. However, it involves a little javascript. Insert the following script into the  of your HTML document:
To change the distance of the iFrame from the bottom of the screen (Don't ask), change the "offsetTop" number. In this example it is set to "0" but that can be changed to whatever fits your needs.Code:
"window.onresize=resize_iframe;" will resize the iFrame with the frsize id every time you change the size of the window. To cause this code to alter a different iframe, simply change the id frsize for both document.getElementById lines.
This next segment is the tag that begins the body:
And this code goes anywhere in the body of your document:Code:
- Resizing an iFrame to fit content
Okay, I figured this out because someone asked me if I knew how. I didn't, so I learned. However, in the process I discovered that there are a lot of people out there looking to do exactly the same thing and there are very few simple answers given. So I figured I might share my solution with everybody. Who knows, maybe it will help someone.
This section will deal with two pages. The Main page (which is where the iFrame is located) and the Content page (which is where the content to fit within the iframe is located [it's what the "src" links to]).
- The Main page -
This page is most often going to be "index.html" so that's what we will think of it as for our purposes.
This script goes into the page header:
This next segment is the tag that begins the body:Code:
And the last piece of code needed is the iFrame code. This goes wherever you want it to be within the body of the document:Code:
The iframe id (frsize) is necessary to the proper workings of this. Do not alter it unless you really know what you're doing with it.Code: Your browser does not support inline frames or is currently configured not to display inline frames.
Simple enough? Now on to the content page...
- The Content page -
For this demonstration we're calling the content page "content.html."
This tag is to replace the typical  tag in the content page:
Note: "666" is actually variable. You need to set it manually to match the overall height of the content page's content. If you use the iFrame for multiple content pages, each content page will need to have the height set manually.Code:
- Example -
Below is a basic example of how all the code will work:
Index.html (The Main Page)
Content.html (The Content Page)

Internet Explorer 7 is the latest version of the world's most popular web browser. This new version is a major step forward in ease of use and security. Download it for free today.
Tabbed browsing allows you to manage multiple websites within one browsing window. To create or open tabs in Internet Explorer 7, click on the empty tab on the Toolbar or right-click on any hyperlink in a webpage and choose New Tab. You also can right-click on a tab to refresh each page as an individual tab or refresh all of them as a group, as well as close individual tabs or the entire group.
Quick Tabs
Tab Groups
When you install Internet Explorer 7 your current list of favorites in Internet Explorer 6 will migrate into the new browser so you won't have to re-add your favorite websites when you begin surfing the web.
Internet Explorer 7 offers dynamic security protection to help keep you safe online. Most users are unaware of how much personal, traceable data is transmitted with every click of the mouse while they are browsing the web and most online users are likely to have trouble discerning a valid website from a bogus copy. A technique used by many malicious website operators to gather personal information is known as phishing � masquerading online as a legitimate person or business for the purpose of acquiring sensitive information (e.g., a credit card or social security number).
Developers of phishing and other malicious activities thrive on lack of communication and limited sharing of information. Using an online service that is updated several times an hour, the new Phishing Filter in Internet Explorer 7 consolidates the latest industry information about fraudulent websites and shares it with you to proactively warn and help protect you while you browse.
The Phishing Filter is turned on by default when you first use Internet Explorer 7. For Phishing Filter options, including turning it on or off, reporting a suspicious site to Microsoft, and more, go to the Tools menu in the upper-right toolbar, and select Phishing Filter.
Website certificates are designed to both encrypt the traffic between your browser and a website as well as make sure that you're communicating with the website you intended. Included in that website certificate is a number of different pieces of information such as the web address, or URL, expiration date, and certifying authority who verified this website was actually who they said they were. If any of these pieces of information are out of synch with the site you are attempting to contact, it may be due to a malicious individual attempting to fool you into revealing your personal information to them. For example, if I access https://woodgrovebank.com and everything works fine, I can be certain that I was communicating with the valid owner of that URL. However, if that certificate is stolen or is no longer valid, that URL and website combination cannot be guaranteed to be secure. As a result, Internet Explorer will automatically block you from accessing the site. If you have seen this on a site you know to be valid, please contact the site administrator to update their website certificates as soon as possible.
RSS stands for Really Simple Syndication. RSS feeds are a way for website owners to easily distribute a list of headlines, update notices, and content to a wide number of people on the web. Most people are interested in many websites whose content changes on an unpredictable schedule. Examples of such websites are news sites, travel sites, community information pages, medical websites, and weblogs. Repeatedly checking each website to see if there is any new content can be very tedious.
With new integrated support for RSS in Internet Explorer 7, you can easily discover, subscribe to and read RSS feeds directly in the browser. You can have personalized sports, news, or shopping feeds delivered directly to you.
In Internet Explorer 7, you can read the feed directly in the browser, scan for important stories and get a description of the content. You can also subscribe to a feed with a single click, a process that is very similar to adding a website Favorite.
How to subscribe to an RSS feed in Internet Explorer 7
1. The site you're visiting must offer RSS feeds. Internet Explorer 7 will notify you of a site that offers RSS by illuminating (in red or orange) the RSS feed button on your toolbar.
2. Click the red/orange "Feeds" button to see a list of articles that are offered via RSS and subscribe to them by clicking "Subscribe to this feed" in the upper part of the screen.
3. You can see all the updated content on this site by looking in the Feeds section of your Favorites Center each time you open Internet Explorer 7.
The Toolbar Search Box makes it quick and easy for you to search the web directly from the upper-right corner of the browser using your favorite search providers. Just enter your search words and choose a search provider from the drop-down list. To add more providers, just click the drop-down arrow and click Find More Providers... to easily add more providers to your list.
Internet Explorer 7 was designed to be more streamlined and less cluttered with unnecessary items. Our goal was to maximize the screen real estate devoted to the webpages that you want to view and reduce the toolbar "creep" that can sometimes take up as much as a third of the screen.
Most of the options you used in Internet Explorer 6 are still there. The Back and Forward buttons are smaller and have been moved next to the Address Bar. The Windows flag icon in the upper-right corner of Internet Explorer 6 has been removed to make room for the Toolbar Search Box. There is also a new Favorites Center that contains your favorite websites, RSS feeds, and browsing history. Make sure you explore the new toolbar to see all your options including printing, page view, settings, and more.

EXPERT SECRETS | Alice Hart-Davis shares 3 top tips for great teen skin
BRITISH BEAUTY expert Alice Hart-Davis recently penned a beauty bible for teens with no other than her teen daughter, called Be Beautiful: Every girl's guide to hair, skin and make-up and shared a few tips on how to keep teen skin (and, let's face it, adult skin too) looking great... She says:
1. Keep it clean and moisturised: all skin needs moisture, even if it's oily. Water and oil are two different things and however much you are trying to minimize oil production in your skin, you want to give it moisture to keep it hydrated. There are plenty of oil-free moisturisers out there."
2. "Keep it protected from ultra-violet light. That means sun-screen, worn every day. It's not just hot sunshine that can damage the skin, it's the slow build-up of damage done by everyday exposure to daylight. Get into the habit of wearing cream with an SPF, then you won't have to worry so much about future wrinkles."
3. "If you suffer with acne, get professional help. Your doctor should be able to prescribe antibiotics that may help, or can refer you to a dermatologist. To docs and derms, spots are a condition that can be treated, not a rite-of-passage that you have to endure!"

It turns out Luis Castillo won't be back with the San Diego Chargers after all.
Kevin Acee of U-T San Diego reported Thursday the team will release Castillo, a defensive end who was the Chargers' first-round pick in the 2005 NFL Draft.
The Chargers later confirmed the release.
» Learn more about Coaches Film
The move is somewhat curious, considering the Chargers re-signed Castillo on April 3. Acee said the two sides had been in communication, and the Chargers decided to get younger at the position. Castillo wasn't a sure thing to make the team out of camp.
Castillo broke his leg in Week 1 last September and missed the remainder of the season. He visited the Kansas City Chiefs and New England Patriots as a free agent before signing a one-year, $1 million deal to return to the San Diego Chargers. It will be interesting to see if those teams now sniff around Castillo.
"Luis is, he was really having an outstanding camp last year and got hurt in the opening game, and he's, I think he's healthy," Turner said in April. "Last time I talked to him, he thought he was making great strides and great rehabilitation. I see him as a good football player."
Something obviously changed between then and now.

Steve: Although they've been playing better of late, do you think the Ravens' secondary is ready for Big Ben and the Steelers' passing attack? Do you think Ed Reed will be back on the field Sunday? Since Webb's done for the season, do you think the Ravens will sign a veteran cornerback this week?
Mike Preston: Big Ben could light this secondary up big time with or without Ed Reed. I suspect Reed will play since he has been on vacation the past two or three weeks. The best hope for the Ravens is to get pressure on Roethlisberger and constantly force him to move. Even before the injury to Webb, I thought the Ravens would have a tough time beating Pittsburgh at home if Roethlisberger was healthy.
Paul: The Ravens are thin at cornerback. So why was Webb playing on special teams late in a blowout game?
Mike Preston: I think one has to really, really, question that decision. It's a fair question, but not out of the ordinary when it comes to young players. Coaches like to get the young ones on the field as much as possible. Also, with no Reed, Fabian Washington or Samari Rolle, the Ravens don't have a lot of choices when it comes to putting athletes on special teams. It just happened. I'm not holding anyone at fault.
Richard: Is Demetrius Williams out of coach John Harbaugh's dog house yet? Is there any chance Williams would start over Clayton when Clayton's ready to return?
Mike Preston: I think Clayton will retain his spot and start Sunday. You usually don't lose your starting position because of injury unless the other player is playing lights out. Williams has contributed to several big plays in the past three weeks, but remember the Ravens were playing the Lions and Bears in two of those games.
Michael: Brian Billick mentioned during the broadcast that Bears quarterback Jay Cutler was becoming similar to Jeff George. Do you think that is fair? It looks to me like the Bears are just not good. Thoughts?
Mike Preston: Billick meant to say Cutler was becoming similar to Kyle Boller. The Bears have some talent, but there is little doubt that Cutler has shut it down for the year. When a quarterback calls it quits, everyone else does as well because the quarterback handles the ball so much. From Cutler's body language, he just didn't seem to care. The Bears have also suffered some key injuries this season, but Chicago got played by Denver in the trade for Cutler.
Mike: How much of a disadvantage do you think it was for the Bears to arrive late Saturday for a Sunday game? In a normal week (with a Sunday game), when do teams usually arrive for a road game? Do teams typically have a hard curfew for their players on Saturdays before game day?
Mike Preston: On the road, NFL teams are like machines. They have schedules, and everything is centered around that schedule -- from arrival time, meetings, meals, to arriving at the stadium and catching the flight back home. Every team has a routine, and when you get out of that routine, it creates some anxiety. That's not the main reason the Bears got beat Sunday, but that late flight did have an impact. It's just all part of the Bears having a subpar season in 2009.
One thing I guarantee: that would have never happened to the Ravens. The Ravens have one of the best director of operations in the NFL in Bob Eller. He is a great behind-the-scenes guy and a whiz at what he does.
Tom: Why hasn't Tom Zbikowski been used on returns? He was good in college, right? I know Chris Carr has done better lately, but I'm still curious about this non-change.
Mike Preston: Chris Carr is a nickel and dime cornerback who plays in a part-time role. Tom Zbikowski is a starting safety filling in for a position that has already been hit hard by injuries (see Ed Reed). It would make no sense to have Zbikowski returning punts at this time. Who would then play safety if Zbikowski got hurt?
B.Hopp: What did you think about seeing Troy Smith out there in the "Suggs Package?" Why would offensive coordinator Cam Cameron try to implement it this late in the season?
Mike Preston: It puts more pressure on the Steelers in preparation for the Ravens. The Steelers now have to spend 15-20 minutes preparing for this package even though the Ravens might not use it. It's a good move by Cameron. At least the Ravens are attacking now and putting pressure on defenses instead of being so vanilla.
Steven: How did Terrell Suggs look this week in his second game back from injury?
Mike Preston: He's getting there, but he needs to have a big game this week. If Suggs has an exceptional game, the chance of the Ravens succeeding increases significantly. It would be nice for him to play well. At this point, Suggs owes the Ravens and the fans.
Brian: Is it true that Frank Walker has a tattoo that reads "discipline" on his arm? Just kidding. Seriously, what was he thinking in throwing the ball after his interception?
Mike Preston: He is psycho. But for some reason, and I don't know why, I think Walker will play well when called upon. He is a veteran, and I think he'll use every trick he knows to get the job done. I've busted on Walker in the past -- and I'm nervous about him being on the field Sunday -- but i believe he is going to come through.
Phil: Mike, do you have a Super Bowl pick (AFC and NFC) you'd be willing to share at this point? I need to know if I should book my ticket to South Florida.
Mike Preston: If you support the Colts, book the ticket. I wouldn't be counting on any other team in the AFC. Over in the NFC, the Saints will probably come through as long as they can come back from their current NFL funk. As for the Ravens, they just need to get to the playoffs first. It's one step at a time.

The Heart Truth - Lower Heart Disease Risk
What is Heart Disease?
When you hear the term "heart disease," you may think, "That's a man's disease" or "Not my problem." But here is The Heart Truth®: one in four women in the United States dies of heart disease, while one in 30 dies of breast cancer. If you've got a heart, heart disease could be your problem. Learn more about heart disease.
What Are the Risk Factors for Heart Disease?
An astonishing 80 percent of women ages 40 to 60 have one or more risk factors for heart disease. Having one or more risk factors dramatically increases a woman's chance of developing heart disease because risk factors tend to worsen each other's effects. In fact, according to research compiled by the NHLBI, having just one risk factor doubles your chance of developing heart disease.
Whatever a woman's age, she needs to take action to protect her heart health. Heart disease can begin early, even in the teen years, and women in their 20s and 30s need to take action to reduce their risk of developing heart disease. Yet among U.S. women ages 18 and older, 17 percent are current smokers. Among women ages 20 and older, 64 are overweight (BMI of 25 or greater), 27 percent have hypertension, and 45 percent have high cholesterol. African American and Hispanic women, in particular, have higher rates of some risk factors for heart disease and are disproportionately affected by the disease compared to white women. More than 80 percent of midlife African American women are overweight or obese, 53 percent have hypertension, and 11 percent have been diagnosed with diabetes. Eighty percent of Hispanic women ages 20 and older are overweight or obese, and 15 percent have been diagnosed with diabetes.
To learn more, read about heart disease risk factors or watch The Heart Truth Heart Attack Risk Factors video, which address the two types of risk factors associated with heart attacks.
How Do I Find Out if I Am at Risk for Heart Disease?
Some women believe that doing just one healthy thing will take care of all their heart disease risk. For example, they may think that if they walk or swim regularly, they can still smoke and stay fairly healthy. This is wrong. To protect your heart, it is vital to make changes that address each risk factor you have. Find out how to lower heart disease risk.
A damaged heart can damage your life by interfering with enjoyable activities and even your ability to do simple things, such as taking a walk or climbing steps. Heart disease cannot be "cured." It is a lifelong condition—once you get it, you'll always have it.
Fortunately, it's a problem you can do something about. Find out your risk for heart disease and take steps to prevent and control it. Talk to your doctor to get more answers. Start taking action today to protect your heart. Heart disease is preventable—by making healthy lifestyle changes and taking steps to manage risk factors, women can reduce their risk for heart disease. Visit The Heart Truth tools and resources.

We have been designing our own adverts to advertise out nursing conferences. Each month we run full page adverts in two nursing magazines in Australia. We are looking for an eye catching design to show off our conferences and publications and encourage people to come to our website to purchase products and register for attendance.
Ausmed Conferences
Each month we run full page adverts in two nursing journals
that are read by nurses in Australia.
The journals are the LAMP (which advertises in New South Wales only) and
the ANJ (which has a bias towards Victoria, South Australia, Perth and
Tasmania). We require two layouts that
will print with bleed, the details for the page sizes are below for each
magazine. The two different adverts
should have the same look and feel to maintain the branding of the company
across the readership.We want the adverts to show off our conferences to the
readers of the magazines in order to get them to go to our website or phone us
to register for the conferences. We also
want to be able to include other information or products that we sell to
encourage cross sales.
Please have a browse of our website http://www.ausmed.com.au/ and our
conference registration website https://www.ausmed.com.au/reg/
for details of up and coming conferences that you can use as examples for
inclusion in your layouts.
We are interested in a design that can be used each month
with just the conferences or products being changed or rearranged. We will
either do this ourselves or use a local designer to put each months new content
in to your layout.
Please use our company colours of process yellow and process
cyan in your design. We have used
process yellow in the past as it really stands out in the journals and no-one
else in the journals is using it.
You really have a free hand with how the advert will look
but it must incorporate our telephone number, website address - this is how we want most people to register so it is very important this is big and obvious.
We really need to showcase the conferences this is the most
important function of the advert. Most of our business comes from the
conferences and so these adverts should be used to tell people about what we
are offering in the coming months. For example if the advert is going in the
September issue it needs to include chosen conferences until the end of the
year. The only copy we really need is the conference date, location and
possibly name if it can't be read easily from a picture. We do like using our
conference brochure covers as they really seem to attract our audience to come
and register when they receive them via direct mailing.
You are welcome to use stock photos. But please also try and
use some of our conference brochure covers, we use stock photos for them as
well. The covers for the brochures are chosen very carefully to try and
communicate the conference in a single photo.

- Professional looking designs.
- Layouts that standout and attract the eye.
- They should show case our conference brochures.
- The layouts to be in Adobe Illustrator format.
Regular advert designs, we need to stand out.

Max Scherzer pitched six solid innings to remain undefeated this season, and Avisail Garcia broke the game open with a bases-loaded triple, leading the Detroit Tigers over the Minnesota Twins 6-1 on Sunday.
Max Scherzer pitched six solid innings to remain undefeated this season, and Avisail Garcia broke the game open with a bases-loaded triple, leading the Detroit Tigers over the Minnesota Twins 6-1 on Sunday.
Scherzer, who retired his last 22 batters in a win at Cleveland on Tuesday, allowed a run and three hits Sunday in improving to 7-0. He struck out six and walked three.
Torii Hunter homered for the Tigers, and Prince Fielder drove in a run with a fourth-inning double. Garcia, pinch-hitting in the sixth, cleared the bases to make it 6-1.
Mike Pelfrey (3-5) allowed five runs and five hits in 5 2-3 innings. He walked three and struck out five.
Minnesota has lost 11 of 12.
Scherzer set down the Twins in order in the first, extending his streak of batters retired to 25 before Minnesota drew back-to-back walks to start the second. He is the first Detroit pitcher to start the year 7-0 since Jeremy Bonderman was 8-0 in 2007.
Hunter opened the scoring in the first with an opposite-field solo homer, and in the fourth, Miguel Cabrera walked and scored on Fielder's double. Each of the last six times Cabrera has walked, Fielder has followed with a hit.
Cabrera extended his hitting streak to 12 games with a one-out single in the sixth, and Avila later drove him home with a bloop single that fell between three fielders in short left-center.
That hit chased Pelfrey, and after Casey Fien walked Omar Infante to load the bases, the Twins brought in left-hander Caleb Thielbar. Detroit countered with Garcia, who hits right-handed, and he sent a drive to left-center to bring home three more runs.
Drew Smyly pitched 2 1-3 hitless innings of relief for the Tigers to finish the game.
Minnesota's only run came in the fifth on an RBI single by Jamey Carroll.
NOTES: The longest streak of batters retired by a pitcher this year is 29 by Shelby Miller of St. Louis, according to STATS. On May 10, against Colorado, Miller allowed a leadoff single in the first before retiring the final 27 batters to end the game. Then on May 15, Miller retired the first two New York Mets he faced. ... Hunter needs one more homer to reach 300. ... Tigers manager Jim Leyland said there's no timetable for the return of OF Austin Jackson, who has been on the DL since May 12 with a pulled left hamstring. RHP Octavio Dotel (right elbow) isn't expected back for a while. ... Minnesota OF Wilkin Ramirez did not play. He left Saturday's game when he was shaken up in an outfield collision. ... Detroit begins a two-game home series with Pittsburgh on Monday. Justin Verlander (5-4) takes the mound for the Tigers against Francisco Liriano (3-0). The Twins play at Milwaukee. Kevin Correia (4-4) is set to start for Minnesota against Wily Peralta (3-5).

A Venture Into Vinyl
So I'd like to introduce my very first custom Dunny, "Shroomy." This little guy is 2 3/4" tall, painted with acrylics, & holding a real poppy pod, also painted with acrylics. The text collaged on the back is from a dictionary.
This was just what I needed-- a new challenge, but pure play. It was tricky painting the tight curves, & even trickier collaging on a curve. This is the first time I've tried to do that, & I'm not completely happy with the results. I'll have to explore other techniques, next time. But there will definitely be a next time-- this was too much fun!
Okay, I'm just pretending that I did this for the IF prompt, but since it's a Dunny pretending to be a mushroom, it seems appropriate enough!

Very appealing character! Did you use a polymer clay to make this? I had to google vinyl toys and found that usually a person sculpts a figure and then sends it off to be made into a soft vinyl toy...do you plan to do that? It's very cool as a one off piece too :)

- Curious Art said...
Thanks, Sue! Your sculptures are great!
I didn't sculpt this, just did the painting/collage & added the poppy.
I know the process you're talking about, though I've never tried it. This is a different thing. Manufacturers (in this case, Kidrobot) make blank toys for customers to decorate however they like. Some get very elaborate with sculpted additions, carving &c. But this was just paint & collage.

Proxy Voting Fact Sheet (March 2014)
- Authors:
Publication Date:
March 2014
For annual general meetings held by Russell 3000 companies in January and February 2014, shareholder proposal volume declined compared with same period last year, possibly a sign that investor engagement continues to be fruitful for companies. The proportion of proposals voted increased versus last year, while omissions declined. Activists have introduced new topics to the voting ballot seeking sustainability reporting, proxy access, information about corporate political contributions, and the elimination of tax gross-ups and golden coffins. Data on the number of voted proposals may indicate that proponents are refining their requests to reduce the likelihood of exclusion by management.

text: First, they release their leading running back and now the scruffy Kansas City Chiefs have said so long to their top wide receiver. How much can a 2-7 team take? The release last week of the disruptive Larry Johnson, on the heels of his second suspension in 12 months, may actually have amounted to addition by subtraction for the struggling Chiefs.

ETSU has won its last 13 meetings against Lipscomb
JOHNSON CITY, Tenn. (Jan. 1, 2014) – The ETSU women's basketball team will look to ring in the New Year on a positive note when it welcomes the Lipscomb Lady Bisons to the ETSU/MSHA Athletics Center on Thursday evening at 7 p.m. in the Atlantic Sun Conference opener for both teams.
The Buccaneers (4-7) head into league action aiming to continue the momentum established in an 87-76 victory over George Mason on Dec. 28. In ETSU's final non-conference test of the season, the Bucs relied on steady offensive production including 10 players in the scoring column and three double-figure scorers. Additionally, the Blue and Gold's strong defense forced the Patriots into 34 percent shooting for the game and turned GMU over 12 times resulting in 16 points off turnovers. ETSU's aggressive offensive attack got it to the free-throw line 32 times, including 26 makes, and overpowered George Mason in the paint with 30 points. Serena Clark (Stone Mountain, Ga.) led the Bucs with a career-high tying 21 points to go along with an also team-high nine rebounds.
In facing the Lipscomb Lady Bisons, the Blue and Gold has an excellent opportunity to begin to conference play with a victory. LU currently sits at 3-8 overall on the season with its latest victory coming on Dec. 21 when the Bisons downed Gardner-Webb, 86-68, in Dayton, Ohio as part of the Wright State Invitational Presented by Holiday Inn. All-time, the Bucs hold a 16-1 series advantage over the Lady Bisons including 13-consecutive victories. In the most recent meeting between the two teams on Feb. 2, 2013, ETSU held court inside the ETSU/MSHA Athletics Center to the tune of an 86-64 victory.
For more on Thursday's game, read the game notes below. For more on ETSU women's basketball throughout the 2013-14 season, visit ETSUBucs.com and click on the women's hoops link.
Game Notes
The ETSU Department of Intercollegiate Athletics would like to ask both the print and broadcast media to honor our request to be called "ETSU" throughout the 2012-13 season ... East Tennessee State in first reference is acceptable, but subsequent references should be ETSU ... On TV graphics, please use ETSU ... Our nickname is the Buccaneers, but Bucs is also acceptable.
The ETSU Buccaneers enter the 2013-14 season under the guidance of first-year head coach. Brittney Ezell. A two-sport star in basketball and softball at the University of Alabama, Ezell comes to ETSU after spending three seasons as head coach at Belmont University where she compiled a 41-52 overall record. The Franklin, Tenn. native takes the reigns of a veteran-heavy team that returns nine letterwinners from an 8-18 overall 2012-13 campaign. Among the nine returnees are six players who started 10 or more games last season. Highlighted among the returnees is last year's team-leading scorer and rebounder Destiny Mitchell who led the way with 11.5 points and 8.1 rebounds per game. Supporting Mitchell are juniors Serena Clark and Cara Bowling who each averaged 9.5 points per game last season.
As a result of a leg injury suffered in the first regular season game of the season at Memphis on Nov. 8, senior Destiny Mitchell will miss the remainder of the 2013-14 campaign. Mitchell will undergo surgery and continue injury rehabilitation while the ETSU compliance department petitions for a medical redshirt to have the forward cleared to participate in 2014-15.
In the most recent meeting between the two teams on Feb. 2, 2013, ETSU held court inside the ETSU/MSHA Athletics Center to the tune of an 86-64 victory. The Bucs started strong, scoring the first 13 points of the contest and never looked back. The Blue and Gold held the Lady Bisons scoreless for nearly five minutes and contained them under double-digits until seven minutes remained in the period. ETSU got up by as many as 25 in the first half before LU fought back to shorten the lead to 17, 45-28, before halftime. In the second half, the Lady Bisons whittled the Bucs advantage down to as few as 12 points but a 17-9 ETSU burst over the final five minutes sealed the game in the Blue and Gold's favor. The Bucs were led by a team-high 16 points and a game-high seven steals from Destiny Mitchell in only 18 minutes of play due to injury.
Junior forward Serena Clark has started 2013-14 off strong, scoring in double-figures in nine of the 11 games this season. After falling just one rebound short of a double-double in the season opener at Memphis (11/8), the native Georgian reeled off four-consecutive double-doubles for ETSU in games from Nov. 12th thru the 29th including a career-high 21 points and 11 rebounds in a 82-65 win against Alabama A&M (11/29). The junior's most recent double-double came at Vanderbilt (12/3) where she posted 13 points and a career-high tying 15 rebounds. Clark has now exceeded her double-double total from last season just eleven games into the 2013-14 campaign with five this season and is poised for more throughout the year. The forward's 12.7 points per game currently ranks among the top-15 in the A-Sun, while her 10.9 boards per game ranks third in the league.
Junior guard Cara Bowling is currently the second-leading scorer on the team with 12.6 points per game to begin the 2013-14 season. Presently, this point total per game is 13th in the A-Sun while her 1.9 three-point field goal makes per game stands tied for sixth in the league. The Elizabethton native posted a career-high 22 points vs. Saint Francis (Pa.) (11/24) including four makes from behind the arc.
Sophomore guard Chandler Christopher has proved to be a valuable piece for the Bucs to begin the 2013-14 season. After spending the entirety of the 2012-13 campaign as a seldom-used freshman walk-on, first-year head coach Brittney Ezell liked what she saw from Christopher and decided to elevate the Greeneville native from walk-on to scholarship status prior to this season. Christopher has since recorded her first-career starts in each of the first 11 games of this season and has been a vital cog for the Blue and Gold. After netting two points, five rebounds and three assists in the opener at Memphis (11/8), the guard followed with career-highs of 17 points and four assists in an also career-best 37 minutes played in ETSU's 81-72 win at Appalachian State (11/12). Christopher's performance in the Bucs' first win of the season at App State led to her being named A-Sun Player of the Week by College Sports Madness on Monday, Nov. 18. The sophomore then added another team-leading scoring performance to her résumé with 15 points in a 77-69 loss to Morehead State on Nov. 21. In an 87-76 win versus George Mason on Dec. 28, Christopher tallied a career-high tying 17 points including a career-best five makes from three-point land.
Sophomore Brianna McQueen has been a strong lead guard for the Bucs to begin the 2013-14 season. Using her quickness, the Georgia native is averaging a solid 11.4 points per game at the point guard position and is also getting her teammates involved with 4.5 assists per game. This assist mark ranks third in the Atlantic Sun and will need to continue to keep ETSU's offense near the top of the conference.
Through 11 games to start the 2013-14 season, ETSU is currently averaging 71.9 points per game which is second in the A-Sun. With the 71.9 points per game also come successes in field goal percentage, where the Bucs are second in the league at 43 percent, and in three-point field percentage, where ETSU is third in the conference at 34 percent.
After averaging 6.7 points and 4.4 rebounds per game in 26 games and six starts in 2012-13, junior forward Maria Bond has proved to be a force in the interior to begin the 2013-14 campaign. The native Georgian has started 10 games this season and is currently averaging 10.5 points and 3.4 rebounds per game.

Steve McClaren has left his role as manager of FC Twente after a disappointing second spell in charge of the Eredivisie side.
McClaren returned to the Dutch club in January 2012 but couldn't replicate the success he enjoyed in his first stint in charge, when he won the league title.
Defeat to Heerenveen at the weekend left his side fifth in the league, six points behind leaders PSV Eindhoven with only four points out of the last six games, causing fans to turn on the Englishman.
And after losing the support of the fans and the board the former England manager decided to walk away from the position despite being contracted until 2014.
A statement from McClaren to the club's supporters read: "After the defeat to Heerenveen on Saturday the board of FC Twente and I tried to find a solution to the difficult period the team has been going through.
"We talked about the expectations of the club, how European qualification was key each season and finishing in the top four.
"Despite being joint top at the winter break and second four weeks ago, recent results and performances have seen criticism, protest and demonstration from both supporters and the media.
"We talked about how we could change the situation and relieve the pressure on the team which was clearly effecting its performance.
"Saturday's result has seen further adverse reactions and with two home games coming up we feel the team needs the support and backing from the supporters.
"I also needed assurances about my position both now and in the future which I know in the present situation is difficult.
"After much discussion and deliberation those assurances weren't forthcoming and we have agreed it's in the best interest of the club that I leave.
"We agree the club is bigger than any one individual and Twente is too big in my heart to stand in the way of its progress!
"I leave the team, with ten games to go, still able to achieve its expectations of a top four finish, which I am positive they will do!
"I leave a proud man to have managed Twente, it's brought me many good memories and one of the greatest days in my career when winning the title in 2010.
"The support received from the club, staff, players and fans has always been much appreciated and l depart sad and disappointed it's ended in these circumstances, but I wish the staff and the team success in the future.''

If Your Business Strategy Relies On Suing Others, You're Not A Business, You're A Leech On The System
from the face-facts dept
What's more, Skippen said he believes "that our past investment in litigation could generate a significant return in the future. Our record revenues and earnings in the first quarter signal the beginning of that return to WiLAN and its shareholders."It's hard to read such a comment and not feel sickened by the pure net loss on the economy and innovation from such leeches. Any company whose business model focuses on litigation is not contributing positively to society and innovation. There are times to file a lawsuit, but when that becomes central to your business model, something is broken.
The very core of a functioning capitalist system is that companies make transactions in which there's a buyer and a seller, and both sides come away from the transaction feeling better off. The buyer values the product or service more than the money paid, and the seller values the money more. That's good business. Any time you involve a lawsuit to force someone to pay, you're doing exactly the opposite of that and you're setting up a system that is not working to benefit everyone, but is actively using the force of the courts to try to force a company to "buy" something it has no interest in buying. It's not good for the economy and it's not good for innovation.

The Director-General meets H.E. Mr Boni Yayi, President de la Republic of Benin
The Director-General of UNESCO, Ms Irina Bokova, met H.E. Mr Boni Yayi, President of the Republic of Benin, on Friday, 8 February 2013, during his official visit to Paris. The meeting was yet another opportunity for the Director-General and President Yayi to note their convergent views on the central role of education for sustainable development.
President Yayi expressed his country's keen interest in being one of the State Champions in the global "Education First" initiative launched by the Secretary-General of the United Nations, who appointed the Director-General Executive Secretary of the Steering Committee. The goals of the initiative were to put every child in school, improve the quality of learning and foster global citizenship.
The President of Benin reasserted his country's and his support for UNESCO's mission. He again commended action taken by the Director-General.
Thanking the President for the trust and support that he had always given to the Organization, the Director-General assured President Boni Yayi of the Organization's and of her will to work with Benin in its various development activities.
The situation in Mali, too, was mentioned by the two parties. The Director-General commended the role played in that connection by President Boni Yayi, both during his presidency of the African Union and on his country's behalf. She informed him of UNESCO's current and future action for the safeguarding and reconstruction of the cultural heritage.

Chestnut Hill resident Japheth Brubaker (his first name comes from the Bible) went from having high cholesterol and taking blood pressure medicine to developing training and fitness regimens for Washington Redskins players.
Before Brubaker, 38, quit the corporate world in 2008 and trained full-time for four years in cross-training, yoga and Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, he had low energy, gained weight and was diagnosed with thyroid disease. His job as an IBM consultant for the federal government at the Pentagon was also weighing on his health.
Since then Brubaker has worked on developing training and fitness regimens for everyone from NFL players to Secret Service and FBI agents to children and senior citizens who have trouble with their mobility.
In June, together with his wife, Suzanne, who worked for 10 years as a school psychologist before becoming a certified yoga and reiki teacher, the Brubakers opened Water and Rock Studio, a personalized fitness center that blends fitness, mixed martial arts and yoga at 8109 Germantown Ave., near Hartwell Lane.
The name of the studio comes from the following quote by philosopher Lao-Tzu, founder of Taoism, in approximately 600 B.C.: "Water is fluid, soft and yielding. But water will wear away rock, which is rigid and cannot yield. As a rule, whatever is fluid, soft and yielding will overcome whatever is rigid and hard. This is another paradox: what is soft is strong."
At Water and Rock Studio, the Brubakers offer the experience and knowledge of people who developed body pains and stress, which their jobs didn't do anything to mitigate, and changed their lifestyles completely. In that change they have so far found their angst eased.
Their studio offers a blend of exercise modalities, from classes in functional fitness and self-defense to yoga and nutrition.
The couple moved from the Virginia suburbs of D.C. to Chestnut Hill with their two-year-old daughter, Quinn, in June. Mrs. Brubaker is expecting a second child this month. She plans to launch a menu of parent and child fitness and yoga classes this winter.
"I was doing all the things that I thought I should do," said Japheth about his lifestyle when he worked in the corporate world. "I exercised, ran, ate what I thought was healthy food and played sports."
He had always been active, from his years as a kid on a farm in Lancaster to his time in Manhattan where his family moved when he was nine, and later at Germantown Friends School, where he played three sports when he moved to the area for high school. His active and competitive lifestyle continued at the University of Pennsylvania, where he earned an English degree in 1999.
Still, Japheth's overall health was not great. He was very stressed, and as he described it, "basically constrained to a sedentary lifestyle" spread among the landscape of cubicles and airplanes.
So he quit and devoted four years of his life, "100 percent of his time," to physical training. He started to compete in Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu and other competitions, winning awards on the national and international level.
Now Brubaker is a National Academy of Sports Medicine-certified personal trainer, CrossFit Level 1 trainer, Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu purple belt, Israeli Krav Maga certified Level 1 instructor, etc., and he is working towards his 200-hour yoga teacher certification.
You might say he is the benevolent Molotov cocktail of trainers. He got his temples knocked in a mixed martial arts match, but he also has a cerebral side and is a published poet as well as the holder of a master's degree in business administration from Marymount University.
"The feel of that (corporate) environment versus the kind of environment of the moving and physical (nature of fitness and yoga) and my mental health is just astonishing," Brubaker said.
He went from being a federal consultant to managing a fitness and martial arts center in Loudon, Virginia, near where he and his wife lived. He spent four years there and climbed to CEO of that multi-location business.
His wife, Suzanne, 35, earned a bachelor's in psychology from the University of North Carolina Chapel Hill in 2000 and her master's in school psychology in 2004 from East Carolina University, but she is also a certified 200-hour registered yoga teacher.

History of Marble & Stone Inlaid Art Work :
"Marble Inlay work" is one of the most attractive art that done from marble. Same type of that adorns the Taj Mahal and other Mughal monuments.
It is a closely protected traditional art and only a few expert exponents are available today. The delicate process involves cutting and engraving marble shapes manually. To start with, a predefined pattern e.g., floral design or geometrical design is engraved on the marble slab. Small pieces of marble of different shades are cut delicately to fit in these grooves precisely. These small pieces are then slipped in the grooves. Apart from marble, many other materials can also be used.
Inlay work on delicate precious stone began in the workshops of Florence in Italy around the end of the 16th century. it was known as PIETRA DURA.(Pietra= Stone, Dura= Hard) The Italians had created a classic artistic form and held a monopoly over it. From 1630 onwards pietra dura appeared on moveable, small objects as decorative panels, with bird and flower motifs, suitable for cabinet fronts and Dining Table and Coffee Tables . Some of these soon reached the Mughals in the form of presents called Marble Stone inlay work ( PACHEKARI ) in India
All the Mughal Emperors, Shah Jahan was the greatest patron of architecture in India. For him no amount of money or time was too much to create enduring, everlasting architectural beauty and through it be remembered always. It is in his buildings that one feels most compelled to make the connection between Mughal art and pietra dura. The Taj Mahal, the cenotaphs of the Emperor and his wife, the main floor and the surrounding marble railings bear very close resemblances to the pietra dura form...

A pile of household debris from Sandy's ruins in Long Branch, N.J., is drawing complaints from residents of an apartment complex next door.
The tower of trash is roughly three stories high and sits on an empty lot next to the upscale Pier Village shopping and apartment development on the city's beachfront.
Full Sandy coverage from NBC News
"You pay to live in a nice community, and this should not be your view," said Liz Angrisani, who has lived in Pier Village for two years.
Families are still living in hotels paid for by FEMA vouchers, and on Wednesday FEMA said there are an estimated 10,000 people who require alternate housing yet there are only 6,000 rental properties available. NBC's Katy Tur reports.
Now Angrisani worries about rats and other rodents in her neighborhood.
Mary McDonnell, who owns The Stone Hut, a gift boutique, said the pile on Ocean Boulevard makes passing motorists think the shops are closed, when in reality they suffered no damage from Sandy.
Read more news on NBCNewYork.com
Mayor Adam Scheider told NBC 4 New York that the city has had no other choice than to store the debris, which includes mattresses, sofas, toys and countless other items, on the vacant lot.
"We just weren't going to get the streets cleared," said Schneider, explaining that sending dump trucks to a landfill would take two hours total.
But he said the City Council will meet Friday to award a contract to start hauling it away, and he expects activity to begin a day or two later.
Rock legends perform at Sandy benefit show
That can't come too soon for the merchants of Pier Village. In the meantime, residents like Angrisani say the trash tower reminds her of the work ahead.
"It keeps you motivated to help the community and rebuild," she said.
Three-story high tower of trash remains in Sandy's wake

Filed Under:
fans, memoribilia, pez, trademark
ChurchHatesTucker alerts us to the news that Pez, makers of the famous candy that comes in dispensers with the breakaway heads, is suing a Pez Memorabilia museum. The original article says it's for copyright violations, but I believe that's wrong. The lawsuit appears to be about trademark. The museum itself is not affiliated with the company that makes the candy (and, in the past, the museum changed its name to highlight the fact that it's Pez Memorabilia, to clarify that it wasn't associated with the actual candy company. However, at issue here is the giant (working) 7-foot mock Pez-like dispenser that is on display at the museum. The candy company seems particularly miffed that the Guinness folks declared it the "world's largest Pez dispenser" recently, with the candy company claiming this is false, since without a license, it's not really a Pez dispenser. Now, the trademark lawyers will rush to say that a company such as Pez needs to defend its trademark, lest it become generic. And that's true. But there are ways that such things can be handled without the company demanding the monument to Pez be destroyed. It's difficult to see what "harm" this 7-foot dispenser is doing to the Pez brand. In fact, just the opposite is likely. So why not just grant the museum a license and embrace the fact that there are fans so into your candy that they'd want to build a 7-foot monument to it? Otherwise you just look like a bunch of bullies.

i'll probably never understand the mentality...Somebody wants to make a museum and a monument to Pez about how much they like them and the only thing the corporate types can thing of is to sue them because they like them too much?
Why do company's think its a good idea to sue customers/fans?

It's the "in" thing to do in a down economy!
Brian (profile), 6 Jul 2009 @ 4:02pm
Re: i'll probably never understand the mentality...Just to play devils advocate on that...
If the museum is not run by Pez then they're free to do what they want. The affiliation is there by brand, but not by actual legal ties. So what if a scenario plays out where the Pez museum decides to start putting unofficial Pez-like stuff in there? Especially if it's offensive in nature (just to go ahead and Godwin my own argument, a Hitler pez dispenser). They'd end up having to take the sort of legal action they're taking now, but the "brand damage" would have already been done.
Chronno S. Trigger (profile), 6 Jul 2009 @ 3:24pm
That finger's pointing the wrong wayIf Guinness is calling it the "world's largest Pez dispenser" and that's what Pez has a problem with, why is the museum getting sued?
shmengie, 6 Jul 2009 @ 3:39pm
ouchjust got back from the bathroom. i had to take a nasty pez.
Anonymous Coward, 6 Jul 2009 @ 3:41pmHow could it not be a Pez dispenser? It contains Pez candy, and it then dispenses Pez candy. It's a Pez dispenser, license or no license.
Anonymous Coward, 6 Jul 2009 @ 3:48pm
You now need a license to ride that bike.Now, the trademark lawyers will rush to say that a company such as Pez needs to defend its trademark, lest it become generic.
The interwebs are reporting that Pez has been around since 1927. How can it become more recognizable? If they want to go sue someone, they should sue the Orange County Choppers guys for making this monstrosity.
A Pez Motorbike? Tell me the connection between Pez candy and motorbikes, besides someone saying "Let's go burn some money". What are the marketing people thinking?
Anonymous Coward, 6 Jul 2009 @ 11:12pm
Re: You now need a license to ride that bike.Since PEZ commissioned the bike, I don't think they've got a chance on that one. Sorry.

I assume they mean generic in the way people refer to any brand of adhesive bandages as a 'Band-Aid' or say 'Xerox' for any copier. That just seems silly to me. Pez doesn't exactly have so many imitators that the name would become a universal term...
Jessica (profile), 7 Jul 2009 @ 8:31am
Re: Re: You now need a license to ride that bike.Er, I mean to say 'Mike probably means', not 'they'. Anyway, I bet he's right and the trademark lawyers would try to go after them for that, no matter how silly.
Anonymous Blogger, 6 Jul 2009 @ 3:58pm
Wow...Wow. Haven't Pez ever heard of free advertising? Sounds like the people protecting their interests have RIAA ties as well, would explain a lot.
Ah, well. This move will only make Pez not as trendy and nerdy any more.
Anonymous Coward, 6 Jul 2009 @ 5:09pmThat isn't a HUGE pez dispenser, surely a large company can make a bigger one and have the record updated.
Anonymous Coward, 6 Jul 2009 @ 5:09pmWhat brand damage? The brand damage that reinforces the term "Pez" in peoples minds? The brand damage that reminds people of the cool little candy dispensers that they loved as a child (and love even now)? Hell, even a Hitler pez dispenser as a non-pc bachelor party gift would convey the Pez message more than the National Socialism message. No such thing as bad publicity indeed.
ChurchHatesTucker (profile), 6 Jul 2009 @ 6:03pm
Re:"What brand damage?"
That's a good point. A lot of these "brand dillution" cases aren't really about that at all, its about controlling anything that your brand has touched. This is clearly doing Pez no harm, and probably a great deal of good.

I support Mike on this one...I agree with Mike on this one. A license would be easy to do, and Pez could even gain a little control of the museum (in terms of what the museum could and could not offer in terms of products, and perhaps even approval by Pez). Pez should be rushing in to take advantage of a great opportunity.
Sean, 6 Jul 2009 @ 6:36pmYes, Pez dispenser, those candy dispensers that came topped with the heads of copyrighted characters...damn people bringing attention to something in a different method!

John, 7 Jul 2009 @ 11:40amI agree with pez. It is a matter of semantics and the memory museum apparently has a spelling problem as well. Just because you can buy knockoff items from china and elsewhere, such as rolex's, jeans, shoes, etc. doesn't mean the knockoff item is the real thing worthy of advertising. If PEZ didn't actually make it then it is nothing but an oversized imitation. PERIOD.
The one at the museum should be stated as being nothing but a display item, and should definitely not be considered a true PEZ product, or even worse the largest ever recognized by the idiots at the wgaf foundation.
I'm sure I could rustle up a pez myself, ship it to china & have them make one that's 50ft tall with Michael Jackson's head on it. It will of course dispense small children. Will I then have the world's largest Pez? no
John Duncan Yoyo (profile), 7 Jul 2009 @ 2:08pmThere was a movie that showed a video of a band dressed as pez dispensers presumably made by one of the characters. I wonder if they got sued.
