Coached Duke Track and Field Program for 45 Years
Coached Several All-Americas and Six ACC Championship Cross Country Teams
Served as Team Manager for U.S. Olympic Track and Field Teams in 1972, 1984 and 1988
Having coached the track and field program at Duke for 45 years, it is no surprise that Al Buehler will be inducted into the Duke Sports Hall of Fame.
Following a stellar undergraduate track career at the University of Maryland, Buehler joined the Blue Devils in 1955 as head cross country coach, a job he would hold for four-and-a-half decades.
In 1964, Buehler was promoted from assistant to head coach of the track and field team. His celebrated career drew to a close last year when Buehler retired after Duke hosted the 2000 NCAA Track and Field Championships at Wallace Wade Stadium.
During his tenure with the Blue Devils, which included chairing the physical education department at Duke, Buehler coached several All-Americas, seven Penn Relay champions, six ACC championship cross country teams, and five Olympians, two of whom went on to win medals. Along with his accomplishments as a Blue Devil, Buehler also has enjoyed success on the international scene.
In 1972, 1984, and 1988, Buehler served as team manager for the U.S. Olympic Track and Field Teams in Munich, Los Angeles, and Seoul, respectively. At the World Indoor Track Championships in Lisbon, Portugal, Buehler served as head manager for the U.S. contingent.
In 2003 Buehler was inducted into the United States Track Coaches Association Hall of Fame.

Paralympics: Canada aims for top eight finish, but field is deeper than ever
Gary Kingston
LONDON – With an aging core of multiple-time Paralympians supplemented by a handful of young prospects, Canada will enter the London Games this week valiantly trying to hold onto a top 10 standing against an ever deepening field of nations.
Sport for athletes with a disability is, of course, about so much more than medal totals. From the significant challenges the athletes must overcome to the often perplexing classification system to the availability of high-end equipment, there is a depth to the sports that just isn't there in able-bodied sport.
But in the end, it is still about a fierce desire to win, to be the best. And in countries like Canada, funding can be tied to how we continue to stack up in the medal count.
Officially, the Canadian Paralympic Committee is targetting a top eight finish in the medal standings, based on the number of gold medals won.
But privately, officials acknowledge that even that will be tough given some key retirements, the power of the Paralympic big three – China, Britain and the U.S. – and the emergence of new nations with competitive athletes. The London Games, which begin with opening ceremonies tonight, will set a record for number of athletes (4,200) and number of competing countries (166, including 15 making their inaugural appearance.)
Canada has been in the top 10 at every Games since 1976, finishing anywhere from third to seventh, and is fourth all-time in medals behind the U.S., Britain and Germany. But after back-to-back third-place finishes at Sydney in 2000 (38 gold, 96 total medals) and Athens in 2004 (28, 72), Canada fell to seventh at Beijing with just 19 gold, 10 silver and 21 bronze.
"The competition is truly getting fierce at the Paralympic level," chef de mission Gaeten Tardiff said Tuesday.
He is forecasting between 40 and 50 medals for Canada.
"I don't know if I can express how much the competition on a global basis has become tougher. There are 35 million Canadians. There are over 40 million Chinese men and women with a physical disability and they have great resources as well."
Countries like the Ukraine and Brazil, which didn't make the top 10 in Sydney, were fourth (24 gold) and ninth (16 gold), respectively, in Beijing, where the Chinese absolutely blew away the competition with 89 gold and 211 total medals, more than double that of second-place Great Britain.
Canada also goes into London without its greatest ever Paralympian, now-retired wheelchair racer Chantal Petitclerc, winner of 21 medals, including 14 gold in the highly competitive T54 class. Petitclerc won five gold at both Athens and Beijing, her total in 2008 representing more than a quarter of Canada's gold. Dean Bergeron, who won two gold and a bronze in Beijing, has also retired.
"That's immeasureable in so many ways," Henry Storgaard, the CPC's CEO said of the loss of the talented Petitclerc, who has joined her former coach in helping the Great Britain wheelchair track team this time. "She's such a charming, brilliant, incredible personality.
"Yeah, we're going to miss her, but we're beating a path to her door to make sure she comes back [to coach]."
Canada still has a handful of strong medal contenders in the pool in veterans Valerie Grand'Maison and Benoit Huot and Paralympic rookie Summer Mortimer. And powerhouse wheelchair racer Michelle Stillwell, who won gold at 100 metres and 200 metres in the T52 class at Beijing, and five-time Paralympian Diane Roy, a multiple-time T54 medalist, return, although the two women now are 37 and 41, respectively.
Paralympic funding in the past year has risen significantly to $9 million and the 145 athletes in London say they've never been better prepared.
"With boccia, there has been an influx of qualified personnel working with us, physiologists, physiotherapists, it's really helped us," says Marco Dispaltro.
Amy Kneebone, a member of Canada's No. 4-ranked women's goalball team, said increased funding has allowed the squad to train together for the last three months. "That is going to make a huge difference for us."
But there are gaps in the competititve athlete feeder system.
"We're suffering some of the issues with lack of investment four, five, six years ago, where we didn't have a lot of the resources," says Storgaard. "We didn't have the kinds of more specific recruitment program and elite athlete talent identification.
"What we're putting into place now is a very, very strong focus on making sure we have a fully aligned sport system . . . in Canada that anyone with a physical disability can recognize and get involved with. That really hasn't fully existed.
"We're fortunate that we have these veterans that keep coming back are still in that gold medal hunt, but clearly the message for us is to recruit, not only for the benefit of the Paralympic team but just to get more people with disabilties involved in sport and recreation fitness . . . and we will have a larger pool."
Storgaard says there are other issues that need to be addressed.
"We need to strengthen our professional resources throughout the system. We don't have as many volunteers as there are in able-bodied sport. We don't always have access to the same facilities or the premium times. These are issues that need to be overcome to really ensure that we have this aligned system where all the cylinders are pounding all the time."

PEMBROKE, N.C. – The Georgia College women's soccer team (4-9-0, 3-3-0 PBC) snuck past UNC Pembroke (8-4-1, 3-4 PBC) in a crucial Peach Belt Conference (PBC) matchup Wednesday afternoon at Varsity Grounds in Pembroke, N.C. Freshman midfielder Lindsey Knott (Macon, Ga.) used the cross bar to her advantage, ricocheting home the game's lone goal to give GC the 1-0 victory.
Knott put the Bobcats up in the 59th minute and they never looked back, as freshman goalkeeper Annie Stephens (Fayetteville, Ga.) played all 90 minutes en route to her second victory between the pipes.
Stephens stopped all five shots the Braves put on goal, posting her second shutout of the season.
Georgia College applied great pressure on the UNC Pembroke defense, rallying off 20 shots with 13 of those coming on goal. The Braves managed 13 shots, but only five were on target.
Outside of Knott's three shots on goal, sophomore Brittaney Borror (Evans, Ga.) managed a pair of shots on goal with Alex Knight (Loganville, Ga.), Haley O'Hayer (Savannah, Ga.), Karen Bonilla (Manassas, Ga.) and Abby Dalton (Macon, Ga.) adding one apiece.
The win couldn't have come at a better time, as the Bobcats now own a 3-3 record in the PBC which is good for sole possession of fifth place.
GC now begins their final five game stretch, including four games in the conference. Of the four, three come at home where the 'Cats are 1-1 in PBC play.
Georgia College begins that stretch against a difficult North Georgia squad (10-1-0, 5-1-0 PBC) that suffered their first loss of the season Wednesday night. The teams will meet Saturday, Oct. 15 beginning at 3 p.m. from Bobcat Field in Milledgeville, Ga.
The Georgia College Department of Athletics, two-time winners of the PBC Commissioner's Cup, sponsors 10 varsity athletic programs at the NCAA Division II level. As a Division II program, Bobcat Athletics prides itself on balancing the life of the student-athlete, evidenced by the teams' multiple appearances in post-season competition as well as documented academic success and community-service involvement.

It's a relatively speedy malware remover, with the quick scan taking about 8 minutes even with other high-resource programs running. The heuristics engine proved on multiple computers during empirical testing that it was capable of determining the difference between false positives and dangerous apps.
Malwarebytes is a site dedicated to fighting malware. Malwarebytes has developed a variety of tools that can identify and remove malicious software from your computer. When your computer becomes infected, Malwarebytes can provide the needed assistance to remove the infection and restore the machine back to optimum performance.
The app has some nice features rolled in, too. It supports multiple drive scanning including networked drives, context menu options including a scan-on-demand for individual files, and the FileAssassin option under the More Tools section for removing locked files. The interface is simple, but pleasant-looking and well-organized. Tabs live just below the oversized logo, with few options per tab to keep down the clutter. The installation process was fast enough, but interestingly offered up the well-kept changelog and an instant definition file update.
Do note that the real-time protection is restricted to the paid version, as is the scheduler for updates and scans. Overall, though, Malwarebytes Anti-Malware is a responsive malware remover that does what it should with a minimum of fuss.

Fort Myers, FL- In recent air quality test performed on college dorm rooms, startlingly high levels of toxic flame retardants have been found within the air. These harmful chemicals pose a potential serious health risk to the young students in residence. There are a number of risk factors for such exposure, ranging from hormonal disruptions to cancer. Environmentalists continue to debate the best air purifiers for dorm rooms, as one side is focused on the importance of the removal of VOCs and environmental exposures, while the other pontificates the importance of particulate removal.
Among these chemicals found in the air of dorm rooms were two flame retardants that have either been largely eliminated or otherwise banned from modern products. DecaBDE, the first of the two, has seen an almost complete halt in manufacturing since 2013 when the industry began to phase it out due to known side effects amongst lab rats. Labeled as a possible carcinogen, this chemical was found in higher concentrations during the course of this study than previously seen before. The second, PentaBDE, was banned in 2005 following the discovery that it has the ability to disrupt hormones and cause birth defects. The chemical has a particular impact to the thyroid hormone, and is dangerous to brain development when exposure occurs early in life.
While these results were gathered from a sample of Northeastern universities, they likely represent the conditions of college dorm rooms throughout the United States. One likely cause for these alarming findings is that a lot of older furniture-coated with materials including potential flame retardants-is being confined in small spaces. Off-gassing occurs over time, releasing more and more of these toxins into the air and causing them to become more concentrated. These fumes are released into the air and dust of the immediate environment.
Experts agree that these findings are more than a little concerning. This brings to light the question of why these reports have not surfaced until now. One reason is because of the length of time it takes for symptoms and ill effects to manifest; someone exposed to these chemicals may not show any negative symptoms until years later. However, there is evidence that they are linked directly to endocrine dysfunction and can have devastating effects on a developing fetus. What is equally troubling is that it is not well known how flame retardants react with other chemicals in the air and the combined effects that they may have on the body.
Of the 95 samples tested, each sample contained four flame retardants. Additionally, all of the four are recognized as being potentially harmful. TCIPP, one of the four, is believed to decrease thyroid function, reduce sperm motility and quality, and cause brain damage. While the other three are less studied, they have also shown tendencies to affect reproductive health and metabolism in males and females alike.
The presence of flame retardants in college dorms is not altogether bad. Any number of fires may have been slowed or prevented by these flame resistant materials. Should a fire break out, areas in which people live in very close confinement, such as college dorms, need a line of defense against such a potentially dangerous situation. There does not seem to be an overall benefit for those universities that enforce stricter requirements on flame retardant materials. In fact, there is no indicator that fewer reported fires occur in such establishments as in other colleges. Yet another danger presents itself when such chemicals are present in unnecessarily high quantities, and to such an extent as to affect the health and well-being of individuals.
There may not be much known about these flame retardants, but what has been found is negative. Therefore, it is advised by health professionals that no one spend too much time in environments where they are abundantly present. There are additional measures that both college students and staff can take to lessen this danger. Universities as a whole should also make an effort to supply room furnishings that have lower amounts of these toxins used in manufacturing. Older furniture on the whole has been made with less caution when it comes to the use of toxic chemicals, making newer items a safer choice. In the event that the furniture-and by default the chemicals-are already present, there are steps that can be taken in order to dilute the concentration of these chemicals in dorm rooms. Easy measures to take include keeping windows open and fans on for ventilation. Since flame retardants make their way into the air via dust, regular vacuuming and dusting can also do a great deal to negate the chemicals.
By far one of the best things that students and their families can do to prepare to combat these toxins in dorm rooms is to purchase an air purifier. Proper ventilation and regular cleaning may go a long way towards lessening the amounts of these chemicals in the air, but may not be enough to completely eliminate the unwanted side effects that may come with exposure. If those measures are already being taken, an air purifier can lower levels even further.
Many air purifiers have a tendency to pull toxins, allergens, and other particles out of the air, only to recycle them back into the room once through the filter. In order to effectively combat toxins in dorm rooms, it is important to look for a high-quality air purifier that traps and deactivates such harmful substances.
To this end, the EnviroKlenz Mobile System is the perfect air purifying system. A mobile unit, it is not only extremely effective, but conveniently sized. Measuring 19 inches in height and 15 inches in width, it fits comfortably in the corner of any dorm or smaller room. While it may be small compared to other units on the market, it uses hospital grade HEPA filtration and a unique EnviroKlenz filter designed to absorb and neutralize VOCs and malodors from indoor air. Perfect for dorms and small apartments, the mobile system can cover up to 850 square feet. With three speeds-low, medium, and high-the air purifier can be adjusted based on need, ensuring that users have the right amount of purification without disturbing their neighbors with loud noises. The low setting is nearly silent, while the medium and high settings produce a low humming noise.
The EnviroKlenz model is a better option compared to other air purifiers because of its effectiveness and size, but also thanks to its ease of maintenance. No tools are required to assemble to system, and replacement filters can be conveniently ordered through the EnviroKlenz website. Order the EnviroKlenz Mobile System today for your college dorm and avoid exposure to dangerous toxins that you may not even know are there.
