CAMBRIDGE, Mass. – Sophomore Luke Verdi (Middletown, Md.) fueled a three-goal rally with an assist and two goals, including the game-winner with one minute left, as the MIT men's lacrosse team came from behind to defeat Clark University, 11-10, on Saturday afternoon. In the back-and-forth NEWMAC opener that featured five ties and three lead changes, Verdi finished with a game-high five points on three goals and two assists for the Engineers (4-4, 1-0 NEWMAC). The Cougars (4-3, 0-1 NEWMAC) were led by freshman John Goracy's (Lumberton, N.J.) hat-trick as he also picked up six groundballs.
Clark got on the board first when sophomore Rob Holden (East Longmeadow, Mass.) connected on a feed from junior Peter Christiansen (Seattle, Wash.) after 54 seconds expired. Verdi then set up sophomore Jonah Hessels (Laytonsville, Md.) for the equalizer at the 10:50 mark before Hessels found the back of net in the next 1:05 to give MIT a slight edge. The Cougars quickly responded with a strike from sophomore Ryan Moore (West Hartford, Conn.) to even the score at two a minute later. A defensive battle ensued for the remainder of the quarter until a solo effort by freshman Harris Stolzenberg (Weston, Fla.) gave MIT a 3-2 lead with 25 seconds on the clock.
Both teams traded goals in the second stanza, moving the score to 5-4 at the intermission. Junior Chris Cook (Tully, N.Y.) registered the first marker for the Engineers following five minutes of action and later found Stolzenberg for a man-up tally with 6:13 remaining. Clark, meanwhile, saw junior Keegan Callahan (Tewksbury, Mass.) go to goal shortly after MIT's first tally while a blast from Goracy 1:25 before halftime kept the visitors within striking distance.
In the third quarter, strikes by freshman Michael Traub (Aliso Viejo, Calif.) and Verdi gave the Engineers their largest advantage of the day (7-4) at the 9:38 mark. Junior Ryan Marsh (Oyster Bay, N.Y.) won the ensuing faceoff for the Cougars, collected the groundball, and found freshman Nick Johnson (Amherst, Mass.) for the score in a seven-second span. MIT continued to attack, generating six shots, with two on net, but a turnover eventually led to Johnson setting up Goracy with 3:47 on the clock. Goracy capped off the three-goal spurt and tied the game at seven just over a minute later on a man-up strike that earned Holden the assist.
The Stolzenberg-Cook connection provided a man-up marker that ended the Engineers' scoring drought at 13:51 of the final frame. Clark responded with another three-goal run that put it ahead, 10-8, midway through the period. The tandem of Holden and Christiansen collaborated on the first strike before Christiansen found freshman Darius Jagminas (East Greenwich, R.I.) for an extra-man tally. A caused turnover by Christiansen led to a two-minute possession for the Cougars that featured three shots, two on net, that saw Moore score with 7:20 on the clock.
Clark won the ensuing faceoff and controlled the action during the next two minutes but could not extend its lead as MIT sophomore goalie Eric Bartell (San Diego, Calif.) came up with two of his six fourth-quarter saves. Hessels corralled the groundball after Bartell's last stop that later resulted in an unassisted strike by Verdi with 4:26 remaining. The Engineers won the next faceoff due to a violation and took advantage of the extra-man opportunity as Verdi found Traub, tying the game at 10 at the 3:50 mark.
Marsh emerged with the ball following the faceoff as sophomore Jon Spencer (Hollis, N.H.) tried to put Clark ahead but his shot was off the mark. On the restart, MIT senior Joel Santisteban (Lawrence, N.Y.) caused a turnover that was picked up by classmate Tim Wilczynski (Old Lyme, Conn.). The Cougars kept the pressure on after the successful clear; however, Verdi recorded the game-winning goal with exactly one minute on the scoreboard. The Engineers won the faceoff and managed to keep the ball away from the defense as Hessels ran out the final 20 seconds for the victory.
Cook posted one goal, two assists, three groundballs, and a caused turnover for the Cardinal and Gray while Stolzenberg totaled a hat-trick and three groundballs. Hessels and Traub both had two goals while Hessels tacked on three groundballs. Freshman Cody Jacobucci (Woodstown, N.J.) went 7-of-14 in faceoffs while Bartell collected 13 saves.
Holden notched two goals, an assist, and two caused turnovers as Moore scored twice. Marsh was 14-of-25 in faceoffs and gathered eight groundballs while senior Zach Duffy (Wakefield, Mass.) registered five groundballs. Sophomore Patrick Burke (New Canaan, Conn.) bolstered the defense with three groundballs as senior goalie Kevin Ranta (Beverly, Mass.) tallied eight saves and three groundballs.
Both squads face non-conference opponents in their next outings. MIT will visit UMass Dartmouth on Tuesday, April 1 while Clark will host Plymouth State University the following day.

The CRPA and NRA are Sponsoring Three Bills This Year
SB 1367 Deer Archery Season Concealed Handguns
(Author: Senator Fuller R-Bakersfield)
Background: Fish and Game Code Section 4370 provides that it is illegal for any person taking or attempting to take deer during archery season to carry, or have under their immediate control, any firearm of any kind. As currently written, section 4370 is in direct conflict with the provisions of the penal code that make exceptions for the following individuals to carry a concealed handgun: peace officers, honorably retired peace officers, hunters and fishermen while engaged in hunting or fishing, and individuals licensed to carry.
Because section 4370 excludes any person from carrying a concealed firearm it excludes peace officers, honorably retired peace officers, and persons licensed to carry a concealed handgun from carrying a concealed firearm while archery deer hunting.
Provisions of the fish and game code should not be in conflict with the penal code, and should not supersede laws regulating concealed carry of firearms as defined under the penal code. SB 1367 would amend Fish and Game Code Section 4370 to state that: (a) peace officers, honorably retired peace officers, and persons licensed to carry a concealed firearm pursuant to the penal code are permitted to carry a concealed handgun on their person while archery deer hunting, and (b) that they may not use their concealed firearm to take deer during archery season.
SB 1567 Firearms Waiting Period Exemption for Persons Holding a License to Carry
(Author: Senator LaMalfa R- Butte)
Background: Current law requires a ten-day waiting period for individuals purchasing a firearm before they can take possession of the firearm.
SB 1567 proposes to allow individuals who hold a concealed carry license to receive their firearm the same day it is purchased. The logic is that these individuals are already entered into the State Department of Justice database, and therefore should be given the benefit of going through the automated, federal instant background check conducted at the dealers place of business.
SB 1569 Waiting Period Reductions for Firearms Purchases
(Author: Senator Fuller R-Bakersfield)
Background: Current law prohibits a dealer from delivering a firearm to a person within ten days of the application to purchase the firearm. SB 1569 would, instead, require a 72-hour waiting period. The current ten-day waiting period was implemented during the time when the State Department of Justice (DOJ) background checks were conducted by mail with the use of paper forms. Now the DOJ system is entirely automated and checks are conducted from a terminal at the dealers place of business. This bill will allow purchasers to benefit from the automated system and have the waiting period reduced to 72 hours.

10 Tips for Redecorating on a Budget
There are two kinds of decorating. There's the kind that happens to most of us just a few times in our life, when we move into a new space and get the chance to start from scratch — and then there's the kind that happens when you're already been living in your space for a while, your life has changed and your home starts to feel confining, like a too tight sweater. That's when you know it's time to redecorate or at least shake things up a bit…
But, since that can happen every few years, and most of us don't have the money to throw everything out and start all over again or the time to scour Craigslist, how do you accomplish it without losing your mind or blowing a big wad of cash? Over the break, I redecorated my office. Here's what I learned and a breakdown of how much I spent.
- Prioritize: While the first impulse is to toss everything and start over again (this impulse is especially strong when six of your friends have just moved into brand spanking new places), tackle one room at a time. I started with my office (for more about the first pass, see From Dining Room to Home Office: Without Buying Anything).
- Make a budget and have a plan. It doesn't have to be exact and it will change. I started at $1000. Painful, but realistic for what I thought I wanted to do.
- Decide on your furniture arrangement before you decide to buy — or sell — anything. Most of us are quick to buy and some of us are just as quick to sell or toss. When I started dreaming about my office makeover, I had a long list of things I was considering: a desk (like this one from West Elm), two wing chairs or perhaps a bench (cut down to fit under the windows and upholstered to make a faux window seat), a rug. Big plans, big dreams. Big money. Hmmm. How to trim? That brings us to the next step.
- Prioritize the room's activities: In my dream new space, I wanted a comfortable space for a guest to sit and drink a glass of wine while I was in the kitchen preparing food. While that was all well and good, I don't entertain that way very often. My big priority is having a desk I can work at every single day. So, mostly, this room needed to be my office. I figured I could move things around and figure out a comfortable place for a guest or two to sit or which I can set up as a bar when I have a party, etc. Rather that than a comfortable space for a guest that I'd have to squeeze an office into.
- Start by shopping in your own home: Once I knew what the function of the room was, making a list for what I needed in the room was easier. Since it was an office, I needed a desk. Since I'd already decided to move the dining room to the living room, that nixed the dining room table which I had been using. Then I remembered the desk I'd been using in my living room. While it may not be ideal, it's workable (and I saved $600 by not having to buying the Parsons Table).
- Get to the essence of what you want. Apart from a desk, I needed a chair and storage. Since storage could mean anything from a shelf to a cabinet, it freed me up to consider everything that was in my home. Previously, these storage ottomans had served as both my filing cabinet and my seating. They got moved into the office as did the end tables from the living room. Voila! Plenty of storage meant more items crossed off my shopping list and more money saved.
- Think outside the box. When you're looking around your house, get creative. A sofa table can become a desk, spice containers can hold small desk items. Think outside the box when discovering your furniture arrangement too. You can float furniture, layer it, angle it, put it against the wall or back to back.
- Remember to keep the things you love: When I was starting this process, I was talking to a friend who was interested to know what I was getting rid of. When I told her, she sorta yelped when I got to the pink chair. Oh, you can't get rid of that, that chair is you: modern and classic and glamorous and organic all in one. She was right — I had to keep it. It fits under the desk perfectly and though it may not be ergonomic, I've been finding it is very comfortable to work in. Once the desk and the chair were in, pulling things from other rooms was easier.
- Pare down your shopping list: As I pulled things from other rooms, I crossed things off my shopping list.
- Buy only what you love: This is the first rule of decorating. When I finally did go shopping, although a lot of things went into my cart, only a few things stayed in it. I've learned to cull my cart before I get to the checkout counter.
- Be prepared to be surprised and trust your instincts: Although I'd only gone to IKEA to buy a rug, I ended up throwing a sheepskin into my cart, something I've always wanted but never bought, and a small striped tray.
- One thing changes everything: Have you ever noticed how you can buy one new piece of clothing, a great jacket say, and suddenly it can pull outfits together you were just about to toss? The same thing with decorating. Once I laid down the rug, the rest of the room seemed to fall into place.
- Take another look: The mirrored desk and pink chair was very girly and glamorous. I looked in the outbox I'd started in my living room (which is next on the list of rooms I'm redecorating) and pulled accessories from there. The end tables and the ottomans are useful storage and pretty, the red tray was a nice pop of color, the white vase was something I picked up a long time ago and has been sitting in the corner of the living room.
- When you focus on what you need, you also get what you wish for: I needed an office, I was wishing for a place where a guest could hang out and talk to me while I was in the kitchen. I got the office and, when I stepped back, I realized I gotten what I wished for too!
Here's the breakdown on the end result:
Gislev Rug from IKEA: $19.99
Barbar Striped Tray from IKEA: $3.99
Rens Sheepskin from IKEA: $24.99
Total: $48.97

There's an endearing sense of modesty to a line like "Daniel Johnston has hundreds of great tunes, and I've got six", especially when it's sung in the chorus of the first song of an 11-track album. The trouble is, however, is that it's more flatly accurate than self-deprecating, with the songs on Sweet Baboo's Ships flirting around the lines between endearingly charming and sickeningly twee; getting by on heart and frankly underdeveloped. In the main, it nudges itself over into the sweet spot, but occasionally it falls a few inches over the foul line, and rarely does it make an impactful impression in spite of its regal pomp from a cornerstone of assured brass.
One of the foremost dynamics on Ships is the dissonance between the meekness of the songs' vulnerability – embodied by the warbling tones of Stephen Black himself, and his jangly guitar work – and the towering brass section which backs his lovelorn fantasies of recovered loss. On opening track 'If I Died' the knowingly stark contrast between form and content rescues the lyricism from the macabre – lending lines like "if I died, would you remember that you left me?" a sense of overblown pomp, of which a straighter delivery would feel the absence. However, elsewhere, the arrangements are sadly kitsch. Second track 'The Morse Code For Love' grates with a static staccato and repetitive lyric emulating morse code and binary, ending up as annoying as the former and as boring as the latter, no matter how many horns and cutesy codas Baboo throws into the mix.
To its credit, a certain flair in the delivery injects even the album's waltzes with a sense of gusto and pomp. Single 'Let's Go Swimming Wild' has much more spunk than your average slow dance, and this extends throughout the whole record – even at its most down tempo, Ships exudes a real dynamism and thrust to its rhythmic backbone. And similarly, when the sugariness of Baboo's lyricism sticks the landing, the songs congeal into something endearing – verses about swimming alongside fish and promising them that he's going to find love soon sound like a long shot written on paper. But, at his peaks, Baboo pulls off these moments of gingerbread honesty, if only by the skin of his teeth.
Ships will likely shed a few listeners by ramping up the sickliness with passages like "if I had a drum and you had a slightly more high pitched drum, and we bang the shit out of our drums, and fill our hearts up with love". But just as likely, he'll win over as many listeners by giving full credit to the earnest feeling he's attempting to convey and going as big as he dares,; committing to a regal swell of rat-a-tat rhythms and full blooded horns – a textural decision which isn't a natural vehicle of expression for his vulnerable guitar work and bedroom song writing. And for this, Sweet Baboo deserves to be commended, even as his album's first chorus proves sadly accurate.

Have you ever unstrapped, stepped off your snowboard, and sunk waist-deep into dry snow-literally swimming in the stuff? That's Utah. In the last two years, the seven mountain resorts around SLC have averaged over 600 inches of "the best snow on earth," and really, that's reason enough to visit.
SLC isn't an exotic destination, but thanks in part to the 2002 Winter Olympics, the city got an updated look, transforming it from the town that Brigham Young and his pioneers established in 1847 into a twenty-first-century destination. The semi-metropolitan city is easy to get around in. The streets are based on a grid pattern centered at the Mormon Temple Square downtown. So, Molca Salsa is 2901 east and 330 south of Temple Square. SLC has a varied nightlife, cool 1900s neighborhoods, restaurants for every budget, and a great snowboard scene. The best incentive beyond the snow is the convenience of getting here; you can fly into Salt Lake International Airport in the morning and, about an hour later, strap in at one of the Wasatch front resorts-it's such a selling point that many resorts offer free afternoon tickets if you present that day's airline travel voucher (check parkcityinfo.com for participating resorts and restrictions).
The whole experience, from riding the park at Park City or the Mary Chutes at Brighton to hiking out-of-bounds at Solitude or getting first tram at Snowbird, is just dead-on the best-case scenario for any snowboard vacation. Hell, I mean heck, you'll probably end up moving here. I'm sold.
Where To Ride
Salt Lake resorts are spread out to the east of the city in three directions (Parleys Canyon, Little Cottonwood Canyon, and Big Cottonwood Canyon) and all of them can be reached in about half an hour from downtown. The Utah Transit Authority (1-888-RIDE-UTA, rideuta.com) has bus service to Alta, Brighton, Snowbird, and Solitude, but a car is pretty necessary for the full experience.
Snowbird-Steep Pow
Any resort in Utah is good on a powder day, but you shouldn't miss hitting the tram at Snowbird for a 3,000-vertical-foot top-to-bottom run. This is where MFM and the Leines brothers go. Need more incentive? Last year, the resort received over 685 inches of snowfall.
Distance: 29 miles
Cost: $62
Best For: Freeriding deep pow

Brighton-Locals Only
Located up Big Cottonwood, this is the locals' resort and features a sampling of everything Utah is known for-it's your best bet for all conditions. Jump on the Crest Express chair and follow the locals on hot laps through the park and pipe. Head over to the Millicent lift or Great Western for the best freeriding around in-bounds and out, drop in the Rock Garden, and point-it through Mary's Chutes. At the end of the day, unwind at Molly Green's in the base area-pizza and pitchers.
Distance: 35 miles
Cost: $44
Best For: Everything

Park City-Park And Pipe
Park City is the call for park and pipe riding. King's Crown Superpark has been voted Best Park in the TWS Readers' Poll two years running. There's also Jonesy's park for beginners and the Payday and Pick 'n' Shovel parks to warm up for the biggies. PC also is the place to go for more of a mountainy resort-town feel. Distance: 37 milesCost: $74Best For: FreestyleWeb site: parkcitymountain.com
Solitude And The Canyons-No Crowds
This is where you go to really get away from the crowds. Hit up either of these resorts on a powder day and you'll be getting fresh tracks from first to last chair. They also have some of the best out-of-bounds hiking.
Distance: 22 miles
Cost: $50

Comp Cams is bringing the muscle car sound back, and it is nastier than ever! The lobe profile and grind characteristics of these new Thumpr camshafts use a combination of an early exhaust valve opening, a long exhaust duration and a generous amount of intake and exhaust overlap to maximize the rough-idling characteristics of the camshafts. This gives you a seriously aggressive exhaust note without negatively impacting the power output or streetability of the engine. Thumpr camshafts are available in different grind profiles, each one producing a rough, racy exhaust note while still providing impressive gains in horsepower and torque.

An Olympian Spammer Discovers That Reputation Is A Scarce Good You Don't Want To Destroy
from the it's-your-reputation dept
After Begg-Smith's second place finish in Vancouver this week, one Australian news organization published an article calling him--in the headline, no less--a "sourpuss." Another, the Sydney Morning Herald, labeled the Olympic athlete as "Mr. Miserable" and speculated that he was "simply flying a flag of convenience" with no real ties to Oz.Obviously, some of that hatred is due to him switching citizenship, but the article explains why his spamming/spyware activities are a large part of it as well (and may have resulted in the citizenship switch). I find this interesting not just because of the Olympic angle, but because of the reputation angle.
Canadians were more direct. Facebook groups such as "Dale Begg-Smith is a sourpuss" and another calling him a "traitor" have popped up. Twitter messages after the mogul race have included "traitor," "fake Canadian and all-around jerk," plus other phrases entirely unsuitable for a family publication.
Reputation is a rather valuable "scarce good," and destroying your reputation through shady activities can come back to bite you for a long, long time, even if you do plenty of other amazing things. Just ask Metallica.

Forget the book "Go the F**k to Sleep", a pathetic, soul-less, allegedly rebel, 'children's book'. Don't waste your hard-earned money, instead read a BANNED book like "America Deceived II" by a real rebel and the "World's Most Hated Author", E.A. Blayre III.ReplyDelete

Dear Sam,
We want to renovate the kitchen in our 1,100-square-foot 1950s home. Like many of the homes built in this era, we have a pass-through window that measures 36x39-inches. Should make the window larger? We originally wanted to knock down the wall to make an open-concept kitchen, living and dining room, but we have been told that the wall is load bearing. We don't have the budget to install a steel support beam necessary to remove the pass-through wall. Can you suggest some alternative designs?
Sincerely, Brian Murray
Dear Brian,
I'm not a fan of small pass-through windows. I always feel that at any moment a bell will ring and a guy named Mel who's flipping burgers will yell "Order up!"
I know that pass-through windows are common in apartments, condos and smaller homes. And, I get that the window is not only for passing grilled-cheese sandwiches through, but also to let you chat with guests in the adjoining dining room and to make your space feel more open. But a tiny pass-through window calls attention to a home's lack of space and light.
The photo shown here is of a small-space kitchen that I co-designed with Tamara Robbins-Griffith. In this case, the pass-through window was originally an exterior window before an extension and mudroom were added.
The window was not providing much light. And because there was no window pane, the dish soap, vases and sponges put on the ledge would fall into the mudroom. removing the wall would have cost approximately $10,000, a large part of the family's renovation budget. So we made the decision to drywall over the window and cover it with cabinetry, giving the family much needed storage space. (I know people will ask: It's Martha Stewart for Home depot cabinetry.)
Three recessed lights were added to the kitchen, as well as under-cabinet lighting to make up for the light that was lost by covering the pass-through.
Please don't worry about losing light if you decide to go this route. A pass-through window is not a direct source of light, it's secondary; therefore, don't feel you have to make your ceiling look like a piece of Swiss cheese with multiple recessed lights.
As far as other window solutions go, if you're a modernist and your contractor can safely make your pass-through wider (by at least 30 inches) without disturbing the existing kitchen cabinetry, consider finishing the window in a sleek and minimal way void of ornate trim.
On the other hand, if the bones of your home are traditional, you can expand your pass-through and install large mullioned windows.
This looks especially great in homes with a large living and dining room. Alternatively, adding a couple shelves to your newly expanded window will also give you a classic look and provide you with storage space for decorative items like bowls and books.
Finally, I've also seen pass-through windows converted to breakfast bars, but again your contractor has to make that call, especially because you are dealing with a load-bearing wall. Otherwise, covering your window with drywall or cabinetry is the best choice. unless you're planning on opening a diner in your living room, you'll never miss your small window.
All the best with your kitchen reno,
P.S. Whichever solution you choose, be sure to collect plenty of inspiration shots to help you decide how to alter your pass-through. Plus, a drawing or digital rendering will ensure that you and your contractor have the same vision in mind.
Send your small-space question to email@example.com

Study: Rate of Doctor Referrals Almost Doubles
Physician referral rates in the United States has doubled between the years of 1999 and 2009, according to a new study, and this is mainly linked to the increasing costs of health care.
The rise in referral amounts correlate with an increase in chronic illnesses, such as Type 2 diabetes. The estimated absolute tally of visits resulting in a referral went up by 159 percent, from 40.6 million to 105 million.
"If you add that up, it's real money," said chief study author Bruce Landon, professor of health care policy at Harvard Medical School, in a statement.
The research team found a 92 percent increase in referral rates (from 4.83 to 9.29 percent) over the last decade, analyzing a nationally representative sample of 845,243 ambulatory patient visits from the National Ambulatory Medical Surveys, from 1993 to 2009.
"Understanding trends in physician referrals is critical both for improving patient care and for managing costs," conveyed Michael Barnett, author of the study.
For several years the amount of physician referrals remained consistent, up until ten years ago. This is principally due to increased specialization in medical care, and having primary care physicians do more than they typically do during a patient visit.
"Sometimes physicians may find it easier to refer a patient to another doctor than to find the necessary time to spend with him or her, said Zirui Song, a co-author of the study.
The results of the study were published in the current issue of the Archives of Internal Medicine.

Modeling Study to Predict Progression of Anal Cancer Pre-cursor Lesions in HIV

Persons living with HIV-infection are at greatly increased risk for anal carcinoma and anal intraepithelial neoplasia (AIN). Despite the overall improvement in HIV outcomes, the incidence of anal carcinoma has not decreased with the advent of highly active antiretroviral ther-apy. Further, there is substantial morbidity and mortality associated with anal carcinoma in HIV-infected individuals. For these reasons, it is critically important to develop effective screening and treatment strategies in this population. Anal carcinoma is similar to cervical carcinoma in that they are both associated with infection with human papillomavirus (HPV) and share similar cytologic features of dysplasia. Anal cytology screening is ultimately expected to reduce the incidence of anal carcinoma similar to that seen with cervical cancer after the introduction of cervical Pap screening. Given the high frequency of abnormal cytology in patients with HIV and the need to confirm results by high-resolution anoscopy, however, the implementation of screening programs requires a substantial commitment of clinical resources. The workload and costs involved in following up on abnormal cytology reduce the cost-effectiveness of screening and pose a significant barrier to its widespread integration into routine HIV care. A model for predicting which patients are at greatest risk for progressive of anal dysplasia is needed in order to decrease the need for excessive confirmatory procedures in this population. Without such a model, anal carcinoma screening may remain cost prohibitive for many HIV clinics.
The objective of this study is to develop a predictive model to identify patients who are at greatest risk for progression of anal intraepithelial neoplastic changes. The central hypotheses are: 1) that progression of early HPV-related anal dysplasia is associated with environmental, virological, and host molecular factors and 2) that it is possible to develop a predictive statistical model with a high sensitivity and specificity for predicting disease progression. These hypotheses have been formulated on the basis of strong evidence from studies of HPV-related cervical dysplasia that smoking, HPV E2 expression, HPV E6/E7 protein expression, high-risk HPV type, HPV viral load, p16 expression, p53 expression and Ki67 expression are associated with progressive cervical dysplasia. The rationale for the proposed research is that development of a predictive model will allow clinicians to design more cost-effective screening and follow-up strategies which focus resources on intensively testing only those patients with a significant risk for progression. Further, the models developed will allow clinicians to identify a population of patients who may benefit from early treatment interventions. Finally, information learned from this research may provide information applicable to other HPV-related cancers.

Park City Mountain, Park City Travel Guide
Park City Mountain Summary
- Slopes are powdery and challenging (but there are slopes for all levels)
- Lively nightlife
- Main Street has lots of history
- Home to a snowboard park
- Classical music festival in the summer
- Mountain becomes an amusement park during the summer
- Rowdier scene is slighty less family-friendly than other areas (though plenty of families frequent Park City Mountain)
What It's Like
When most people think of Park City, they think of Park City Mountain Resort. Where the U.S. Ski and Snowboard Olympic Team comes to train, Park City Mountain has lots of powdery, challenging slopes (but there are plenty of different slopes for different levels). The mountain originally opened as Treasure Mountain in the 60s, but was renamed in 1996 and today boasts eight peaks, nine bowls, and 16 chairlifts, as well as a snowboard park. During the summer months, the mountain turns into an amusement park with lots of rides, and slopes turn into hiking and biking trails.
Park City's nightlife is centered around Park City Mountain -- you may even get to party with an Olympian! There are a range of bars and clubs, and the partying lasts 'til the wee hours of the morning. Main Street is home to some bars, as well as restaurants, shops, and historic buildings.
Where To Stay
Park City Mountain is the party spot in Park City. It's slightly less expensive than Deer Valley but is less family-friendly than The Canyons.

Melt chocolate in microwave. Using a small spreader or knife, spread chocolate on sides of a cake square, then sprinkle with topping. Set square on plate, spread chocolate on top and sprinkle with topping. Repeat for each cake bite. Let set for about an hour until chocolate if firm before serving.

Barbara asked me to let you know how she is doing. As you probably remember, she went in today to have her tethered cord released at Dartmouth Hitchcock there in NH.
I'll let her tell you her story when she gets back to the board, but she wants you all to know that she is feeling really well (I just talked to her) and that the first day is great, "we'll see what tomorrow brings." I told her I'd call her tomorrow and relay how she is doing here, so will post another update tomorrow. She sounded good! She said she is not in any pain! Wonderful and a big Praise the Lord!
If you have any messages you'd like me to pass along to her when I call her tomorrow, just post them here and I'll do it! God bless

Dear Hits4pay members,
After 19 years and 3 months of operation, I have sad news.
We have decided to close Hits4Pay site. This decision was not easy to make, as it took months of looking for alternative means to keep the site live.
Why are we closing?
The simple answer is, the PTC model is not a model of advertising appreciated by advertisers anymore.
Hits4Pay is an advertising site and if advertisers are not happy with the results they get, they stop spending. This is what happened in this case.
If we do not have happy customers, there is no point in running a business.
I am grateful to all members who stuck by us all these years, and I am sorry to announce this unfortunate news.
In the coming months, we will be settling out accounts that are due payments.
We wish you all the best.
Best regards,
Adam Jacob

Slash Remembers His First Guitar
You never forget your first. Of course, we're talking about guitars. Did you think we meant something else? The nerve of some people. Either way, in a new interview, Slash discusses the instruments on which he got his start.
Although he's so closely associated with the Gibson Les Paul (and even has his own signature model) that it appears to be attached to his body, it took Slash a while before he got his hands on one. "My first guitar that I ever got was a one-string, Spanish acoustic guitar," he told All Axess. "I had that one string on there for a pretty long time before I learned how to put the other five strings on."
When he switched to electric guitar, he got a Les Paul. However, it wasn't a Gibson, but rather a knock-off by Memphis that he loved, but eventually learned that it "wasn't really that great a guitar." Slash also expresses fondness for a late-70s model B.C. Rich Mockingbird, which he says is his first really good guitar that he wishes he still had.
Eventally he captured his white whale, or rather the Les Paul that he's been recording with ever since 'Appetite for Destruction.' You can catch Slash on tour behind his new album, 'Apocalyptic Love,' through early August.

Vanessa Paradis: Canoeing with Jack!
Vanessa Paradis and her son Jack go canoeing in the Mediterranean Sea while vacationing on her private yacht on Friday (August 17) in the French Riviera.
The 39-year-old actress and ex-partner of Johnny Depp was also joined by her daughter Lily, her parents, her sister, and her rumored beau, hairdresser John Nollet.

"I don't want to talk about him," Vanessa recently told French Elle (via People) while talking about her split in an interview to promote her film Cornouaille. "Who said that artists should sell their soul, expose everything about themselves? … It's my duty to promote this movie, and my albums, but can you imagine what it feels like to see people making a business out of your pain. What's happened to us is our concern."

Despite efforts to boost sales and the creation of a nonprofit foundation, the executive director of Oak Ridge Cemetery says the city of Springfield will need to continue subsidizing its operations from the general fund for the foreseeable future.
�We have to face reality. The city�s going to have to help us to some degree,� Mike Lelys told The State Journal-Register editorial board Wednesday.
The city has budgeted about $400,000 in each of the past two years to subsidize operations at the city-owned cemetery, which is the final resting place of Abraham Lincoln and is second to only Arlington National Cemetery in the number of annual visitors. The city council had to approve an additional $50,000 before the 2014 fiscal year ended in February to keep the cemetery afloat.
The city council approved another $400,000 subsidy for the fiscal year that began March 1. Oak Ridge�s 2015 budget is $1.25 million, down 9 percent from the previous year.
Lelys said the cemetery, which is supposed to be a self-sustaining operation, is being squeezed by a combination of factors, including an increasing number of people choosing cremation over traditional burial and competition from other cemeteries. For example, nearby Camp Butler National Cemetery offers free burials for eligible veterans, he said.
With Mayor Mike Houston�s proposal to privatize management of Oak Ridge now abandoned, the cemetery is moving forward with efforts to boost its �pre-need sales,� Lelys said.
The cemetery has signed a one-year contract with Ray Broccardo of Pawnee to sell burial arrangements on a commission-only basis. Broccardo, who Lelys said has 20 years of experience in the field, will receive 10 percent of all his sales. He began in early February.
�Do I think he�s going to bring in an additional $400,000 a year? No,� Lelys said.
However, any additional revenue Broccardo is able to generate for the cemetery will reduce the amount of money it needs from the city�s general fund, he said.
Broccardo is meeting with veterans groups and civic organizations to educate the public about the burial options Oak Ridge offers, including those for people who wish to be cremated, Lelys said.
Lelys also noted that the nonprofit Oak Ridge Cemetery Foundation, formed in 2012, wasn�t created to support day-to-day operations.
The foundation�s purpose is to help pay for physical improvements, with its first project being the reopening of the cemetery�s historic Third Street entrance in time for next year�s planned re-enactment of Lincoln�s funeral.
�The foundation was never established � to try to reduce our need for any subsidies,� Lelys said. �I don�t see them as funding anything but direct improvements to the cemetery. I don�t look to them to buy equipment. I don�t look to them for salaries, for benefits or anything like that.�
While the Illinois Historic Preservation Agency is responsible for maintaining the Lincoln Tomb and the state war memorials, which draw 600 tour buses a month to Oak Ridge during the summer, efforts to have the state help pay for upkeep of the cemetery�s 9 miles of roads have been unsuccessful so far, he said.
With tourism pumping an estimated $388 million into the local economy annually, Lelys said it makes sense for the city to support one of its �crown jewels.�
�We, the city, are stewards of this beautiful, pristine cemetery,� he said. �And I guess the question is, �Should the city be in the cemetery business?�
�Well, we have been since 1860 when it was established. That doesn�t mean things can�t change. � But it does have a positive economic impact on our community.�

New Bern aldermen will consider a resolution Tuesday night that would provide sidewalks on Neuse Boulevard to give pedestrians better access to CarolinaEast Medical Center.
New Bern aldermen will consider a resolution Tuesday night that would provide sidewalks on Neuse Boulevard to give pedestrians better access to CarolinaEast Medical Center.
The Board of Aldermen meets at 7 p.m. in City Hall.
City staff has been working with the Department of Transportation to provide sidewalk improvements that will extend along Neuse Boulevard from the existing sidewalk at Chattawka Lane to the hospital campus. The plan includes new ADA-compliant curb ramps between Chattawka Lane and Gaston Boulevard, according to city staff reports.
The improvements will establish safe pedestrian access to the hospital campus for residents living in Duffyfield, Five Points, and other areas of downtown New Bern, the report says.
The project�s estimated cost is $70,975. NCDOT has agreed to fund 70 percent of the project ($49,700). The remaining 30 percent ($21,275) would be funded from the Public Works Sidewalk Improvements budget, reports show.
Aldermen will also receive public comment and consider a resolution to submit an application for a public beach and coastal waterfront access grant. The grant funds may be used for land acquisition and site improvement projects that are consistent with state guidelines for public access in the coastal area.
In April 2013, development services submitted a pre-application to construct a greenway trail along the Trent River to the Public Housing Authority property from South Front Street, near Eden Street, to Leander Morgan Park. At that time, the anticipated cost of construction was approximately $445,000, which included a non-motorized boat launch for kayaks and canoes, and a pier with a gazebo.
In August 2013, the city received notification it was selected to apply for a reduced grant of $230,000. That grant would require a 25 percent match ($57,500). Half of the match is required in cash, and the remainder can be in-kind services. The 2013-14 budget for development services included $25,000 that was allocated for the match.
As required by the grant, development services officials are seeking public comment, along with approval from the board to authorize submission of an application for the grant.
Aldermen will also set a public hearing to consider a rezoning request on a 68.997-acre lot between Amhurst Boulevard, Elizabeth Avenue, Pinetree Drive and Karen Drive.
Seth W. Parrott has requested the city rezone a 6.35-acre tract of his 68.997-acre lot from R-10 residential district to C-5 office and institutional district, city reports show.
The lot is undeveloped forested land and about 22 acres is in a C-5 office and institutional district, and the remaining 47 acres are in an R-10 residential district, reports show.
The C-5 office and institutional district is principally used for residences, certain limited business and professional offices, and some institutional-type uses such as hospitals, medical offices and clinics. The R-10 residential district is principally used to accommodate single and two-family homes with 10,000-square-foot lots for single-family dwellings and 150,000-square-foot lots for two-family dwellings.
A resolution will also be considered to approve a land easement with Craven County.
Craven County is in the process of designing a new water treatment plant to serve its water system customers and needs a discharge location for the plant�s backwash water.
The county is considering the abandoned Stately Pines wastewater treatment plant discharge line as the most feasible location. To use that location, the county needs a utility easement across the city-owned parcel where the old Stately Pines WWTP was located. The easement will not affect any of the city�s current operations, nor impede future operations, staff reports show.
Aldermen will also consider a resolution to close the 1100 Block of Walt Bellamy Drive at the Intersections of Norwood and Jones streets Oct. 5 from 4-7 p.m. for a community event for youth and adults.

Morgan Named Co-Player Of Week; Sears Shares Rookie Honor
NEW HAVEN, Conn. – A big overtime win over Brown on Saturday helped a pair of Yale players earn weekly honors from the Ivy League. Austin Morgan, who scored seven of Yale's 18 points in the extra period, was named the Ivy League Player of the Week, sharing the honor with Harvard's Christian Webster. Justin Sears, who paced the Bulldogs with 18 points, was named the Rookie of Week. Sears shared the honor with Harvard's Siyani Chambers.
Morgan opened overtime with a three-pointer and Yale never relinquished the lead. His four free throws in the final 1:34 helped seal the victory. Morgan finished 4-of-6 from three-point range. He now has 180 treys in his career, which is third in school history.
Morgan is eighth in the Ivy League in scoring (11.5 ppg.), second in free throw percentage (.894) and sixth in three-point field goals made (2.2 per game).
Morgan is the first Yale player to earn Player of the Week recognition since Greg Mangano '12 last February.
Sears was a key factor on both ends of the floor in the 76-64 win over Brown. Eleven of his team-high 18 points came in the second half, including five in the final 5:18 as the two teams went back and forth. In addition, he grabbed a team-high eight rebounds, four of which came on the offensive end. Defensively, he was only credited with one block, but he altered a number of other shots and was a big presence in the paint.
Sears is fifth in the league in rebounding (6.4 rpg.) and seventh in field goal percentage (.485).
The last Yale player to earn Rookie of the Week recognition was Jeremiah Kreisberg in 2011.
The Bulldogs are back in action on Friday when they play at defending Ivy League champion Harvard. Tip off in Cambridge, Mass., is slated for 7 p.m.

LOS ANGELES (TheWrap.com) - Joe Eszterhas isn't done with Mel Gibson just yet.
The screenwriter has written "Heaven and Mel," an eBook recounting in colorful detail his relationship with the disgraced director that Amazon will be released on June 6, TheWrap has learned.
"I can't remember ever reading a more haunting, nuanced portrait of a Hollywood superstar in decline," Dave Blum, editor of Kindle Singles, told TheWrap exclusively. "This is an eyewitness account by a gifted storyteller of a man of faith at war with his demons. In the end, the demons win."
Amazon contacted Eszterhas after he released to TheWrap a tape of Gibson ranting...

Some pizza rolls and a quick snack were all roommates Andrew Reed and Eryk Thomas wanted.
However, some forgotten grease on a hot baking sheet quickly led to a small grease fire, and a few minutes later Eryk was running for help and Drew was filling their small Buc Ridge apartment with a fire extinguisher's smoky discharge.
While their cooking skills may need some polishing, their basketball skills are in much better shape. Thomas, a senior forward from
"Eryk and I feed off each other when we are on the court," Reed said. "If he gets a big block, it gets me fired up. It's a competition between us, but it's a good competition because it helps the team in the long run."
Thomas agreed.
"We look to each other to get motivated," Thomas said. "I think we compliment each other's game. He wants to dunk on someone's head and I would rather do a finger roll."
The Bucs' recent successes may very well be linked to the inside tandem of Reed and Thomas. With an 11-1 record in A-Sun play, the Bucs are currently riding a season-high nine-game winning streak, matching their longest since the 2003-04 season.
During those wins, Thomas has averaged 10 points and 7.2 rebounds per game. Moreover, Thomas set personal bests defensively in a win over
Reed has also been a dominant force inside for the Bucs, averaging 9.1 ppg and 5.2 rpg this season, more than doubling his figures offensively during the 2005-2006 campaign. He also ranks fifth in the A-Sun in both field goal percentage (.566) and block shots (1.17).
While their style of play has its similarities, the two also share a strong network of support from their families back home. Even though a great deal of distance may separate them, the love and encouragement of their families is always present.
"I don't think the distance affects their ability to support me because I know they are watching and listening on the internet," said Thomas, referring to the live video streaming available at ETSUBucs.com. "Last year they came to a couple games, but this year, it's like they are trying to get here every week. It's just wonderful how much support they show."
Thomas said his parents have always been supportive, providing him encouragement especially when times are challenging. For him, the transition from
"It's such a culture shock out here," Thomas said. "My first year was a little rough. I was kind of homesick and I think it affected my all around life out here. I just love where I'm from."
Nonetheless, the proud Bay Area native has adjusted well to life in
"I like
Reed too appreciates the mountainous city, but for reasons much different than those of his roommate. With his mother relocating back to
Although it may be reduced, distance is still a factor for his family members who live in both
"We are very close," he said. "I talk to them all the time. They try to make it to some of my games during my birthday and tournament time."
Reed's mother, Penelope, has always supported her family - a group that includes five boys and one girl. Even more impressive is the fact that she's done it by herself. Reed's mother also played a significant role in her son's academics. In fact, Reed credits his mom for most of the success he has had in the classroom.
"My dad died when I was three so I was raised by my mom," Reed said. "She is a very strong-willed woman. My mother always stressed academics because you never know if sports will get you to college. If I got a C, she would get on me."
His mother left a lasting impression on Reed, especially when it comes to the classroom.
"I have always taken pride in academics," he says. "What if you get hurt? You always have to have a Plan B, something to fall back on."
Thomas came to the same realization as Drew, but just later in his college career.
"I think when I went home last summer, I reflected on last year and I realized that I wasn't mature about getting what I needed to get done in the classroom and on the court," Thomas said. "You just have to step it up and get ready for the real world and I'm close to being done with college."
Indeed, Thomas' renewed commitment to both his academics and his game has paid dividends. He has become a solid contributor to the Bucs' recent successes, all the while taking to his role as team captain. Reed has certainly seen the change.
"He's improved as far as his perimeter game and his defense is just getting better and better," Reed said. "He is our number one stopper. We always put him on the best offensive player on the other team and he always does a great job keeping their numbers down."
Thomas said it was time to step up.
"It's like I have a sense of urgency because this is my last year," he said. "This sense of urgency makes me want to just work that much harder in practice and dig deeper in games. I think it's just the overall growth within the year that's changed me."
Ironically, his teammate and roommate has also amplified his game statistically, posting almost the same numbers as Thomas.
"Drew is just a phenomenal athlete," Thomas said. "He is athletic, strong, aggressive passionate. I mean, that is everything you want in a college player."
Reed said he can tell a difference in his game this year.
"This year, I feel like my role on the team has changed just a little bit," Reed said. "I still have to rebound, still have to block shots, but I am also more in the swing of things on the offensive side."
Reed and Thomas are both proud of their numbers, but they credit most of their success to their teammates.
"My numbers are just coming from everyone else producing and helping me produce," Reed said. Thomas added, "I wouldn't be as good of a defender now if it wasn't for my teammates. Defense isn't just one person's effort it is everyone on the basketball court doing their part."
Reed and Thomas share good times away from the court as well.
"One of my hobbies is reading," Reed said. "I like to read, but I also like playing video games with my teammates. We play Halo a lot." Thomas agreed, "Since I came out here, the whole down time is spent playing that game. We consider ourselves greats out here."
The roommates' simple amusement toward the advanced video game may very well stem from the fact that it is projected across an entire wall in their Buc Ridge apartment.
"My friend bought a new projector my freshmen year and decided to give me his old one," Reed said. "It actually is a big accent to our apartment."
While the projector is typically used to watch video games and movies, it seems to be taking on another purpose - creating off-court chemistry. Now, the multipurpose device goes everywhere Reed and Thomas go, including away games.
"We take it on road trips," Reed said. "I think it's an asset to the team because it brings everyone together."
Hopefully, the on and off-court bonding will continue to boost the Bucs overall team performance, and extend their winning-streak. With only six regular season conference games left in his collegiate career, Thomas said that he enjoys being captain of a team that he thinks can make it to the NCAA Tournament.
"It's a good feeling to be captain," he said. "As a captain, you have to lead more by example. You have to be more mature, and just someone the freshmen can come talk to. We are so close to getting something that hasn't been here for a couple of years, and for us to achieve that would be a great way to end my year at ETSU."
With their time as roommates and teammates slowly depleting, Reed said that he will miss his good friend.
"I think it will be hard to fill the void that Eryk will leave because of the role that he plays," he said. "I will be losing a roommate and also a close friend."
But hopefully, they can share one lasting memory in the NCAA Tournament. And they can relive those moments the rest of their lives - as long as Reed still has his famous projector.

Three health club companies were named to Inc. magazine's annual list of the 5,000 fastest-growing private companies in the United States. The Inc. 5,000 list ranks businesses according to revenue growth in the previous four years. Planet Fitness, Dover, NH, was 732nd overall and had the No. 1 spot among U.S. health club companies. From 2004 to 2007, Planet Fitness' annual revenues grew from $8.4 million to $48.5 million. Fitness Together Holdings, Highlands Ranch, CO, was listed as No. 1,705 on the list with $15 million in revenue in 2007. Plus One Health Management, New York, was listed at No. 3,748 with a 2007 revenue of $33.8 million.
Chuck Leve, vice president of business development at the International Health, Racquet and Sportsclub Association, left the association at the end of last month to launch the Consumer Fitness Association, a new association that serves active, healthy lifestyle consumers.
Planet Fitness has announced several development deals that will expand the brand throughout the country. Several franchisees and investors are expected to launch 39 locations in Philadelphia County (PA) and surrounding areas, 31 clubs in the Dallas, Plano, TX, and Fort Worth, TX, markets, 26 clubs in four New Jersey counties, 13 clubs in metropolitan Detroit, 12 clubs in upstate New York, and 11 locations in North Carolina and South Carolina.
Elements, an upscale women-only franchise based in New York, hired Courtney Minor as its new business development director. Minor previously was director of franchise development at Gold's Gym International, Irving, TX, where she was responsible for recruiting franchisees, managing franchise and area development agreements, and monitoring the franchisee throughout the duration of the agreement for both domestic and international franchising.
The International Council on Active Aging (ICAA) introduced its products and services locator, a new tool that replaces the ICAA age-friendly fitness and wellness facility locator. The new service will locate age-friendly fitness centers and programs, communities, health stores and community services.

Many major microform sets and multi-volume print publications are too costly for individual institutions to acquire, and are not readily available through interlibrary loan. Each year, CRL purchases microform and published print collections nominated by member libraries. In August and September, CRL voting member libraries nominate these collections, and vote on the collections nominated to determine which items CRL acquires.
CRL now invites nominations for this year's voting. All CRL libraries may propose collections for purchase under this program. Last year's voting resulted in the purchase of eight new sets with a total list price value of $125,886, including the German journal Daheim (right).
CRL has now sent passwords to access the online nomination form to a contact person at each CRL institution. To find out the name of your institution's contact, or if your institution did not receive a password, please email Mary Wilke.
The deadline for FY15 Purchase Proposal nominations has been extended to October 7, 2014.
More information on the Purchase Proposal Program can be found in the Collection Building section of CRL's website. CRL has also recently released a short "how-to" video on the Purchase Proposal Program, which outlines the steps for nominations and voting, on its YouTube channel.
