One of our licensed medical estheticians will spend one hour analyzing your skin, addressing any concerns, and customize a treatment plan to achieve maximum results. They will consider any products you are currently on, educate you on the medical strength products we offer, and recommend a system that will work best with your skin type and condition. You can make an appointment at the front desk.
The best treatment available to address all of the following conditions at the same time: pigmentation (from sun or hormonal), rosacea, broken blood vessels, diffuse redness, fine lines, enlarged pores, and acne scars. A series of treatments is necessary and will leave your skin with an even tone and improved texture. This is a no "social down time" treatment that works great on face, neck, chest and hands. A series of treatments is necessary for optimal results.
We offer a variety of chemical peels ranging from light to medium depth. A light peel can be combined with steam to extract blackheads, closed comedones and pustules. Great for oily skin and acne, a deeper peel such as the VI Peel, can dramatically reduce the signs of aging with one treatment. Following treatment, the skin will form a crust or scab and requires 7 days of social down time.
This popular technique utilizes a blade to exfoliate dead skin and has the added benefit of temporarily removing peach fuzz and hair. Dermaplaning is included in some of the light peels and is a popular add-on treatment to micro-dermabrasion, IPL, and Genesis.
A light peel or micro-dermabrasion combined with steam and extractions of blackheads, closed comedones, and pustules. Great for oily skin and acne.
During micro-needling, tiny needles are used to create controlled micro-injuries to the skin which encourages skin to produce collagen and elastin. After the procedure, patients can enjoy skin that appears smoother, firmer, and more youthful. All skin types qualify for this minimally invasive, chemical-free treatment.
Pico Technology is our most aggressive non surgical, "no down time" laser for skin texture, pigmentation, acne scars and tightening. Pico Technology laser focuses on your problem areas whether it's brown spots, sun damage, freckles, pigmented lesions or acne scars. Our Pico Technology laser can treat many areas such as face, chest, neck and hands.
Dr. Boudreaux can treat patients who wish to reduce or eliminate unwanted body hair with CoolGlide®. This fast and highly effective laser hair removal system can treat all skin types and tones, and is safe for all areas of the body. Its extended wave length and innovative cooling design allows for a safe and successful results. Since hair grows in cycles, a series of treatments may be necessary.
Vein Therapy treats a broad range of vessels from tiny spider veins on the face or legs to deep blue veins. There is no down time, and is safe and effective. Knotty varicose veins are not good candidates. A consultation is needed to evaluate the time and cost.
The Clear & Brilliant laser is our favorite and most aggressive energy source to dramatically improve skin texture, fine lines and crepiness, while tightening the skin and pores. This laser also improves skin tone by lightening those resistant brown spots, due to sun exposure or aging. Our patients notice the boost in collagen as their skin is more "plumped up," and has a more brilliant, luminous glow. The real beauty of this treatment is that you have only one day of "social down time" which is redness the day of the treatment. The new Permea treatment combines the Clear and Brilliant laser with a topical antioxidant treatment. The special Permea handpiece is optimized for brighter more even skin tone and enhanced skin permeability. It allows to combine the laser treatment with a synergistic antioxidant treatment, which takes advantage of the increased skin permeability to achieve maximum patient benefits.
ThermiSmooth is an excellent treatment option for patients who wish to tighten skin around the face for a smoother, more youthful look. This innovative treatment can gently stimulate collagen production over a series of procedures. Each treatment is quick, easy, and can easily fit into any busy schedule.


Waking up in the morning with cotton mouth, looking for a glass of water as quickly as possible, and then it just evaporates in your mouth leaving you wanting another. You start thinking back to the night before and reviewing what you had. We've all been there. And no, I'm not talking about being dehydrated from drinking. Rather, you're all dried out from salt in your food.
My initial thought had been that I had too much salt in my food during dinner and that made me dehydrated. So, working under this premise, how in the world could sodium loading possibly be helpful in training and racing? Wouldn't that just dehydrate me more?
As a roundabout way of answering those questions, I'll say that sodium loading has been a missing component to my nutrition plan and that salt tabs during training and racing have elevated my performance this season. Having salt doesn't dehydrate you. It's not that the salt intake takes water away from your body and dries you out. By having more salt, your body wants to hold on to more water. So you need to drink more water to satisfy that urge. With this understanding, the benefits of salt intake become more apparent for training and race purposes. With an extra intake of salt, you can hold on to more water and also not cause discomfort to your body. I know I've felt the sloshy up and down feeling of having too much water in my stomach while running. With the sodium intake, there's now an extra source to absorb the new water.
This has made a huge difference in the cramping that I've traditionally experienced during longer endurance tests. In the past, I've hit the run and started to have calf cramps or quad cramps at some point during the run leg. During the Boston marathon, I waited too long to have electrolytes / salt tabs and that made a huge difference in the last few miles. Now, as I've started to use salt tabs throughout training and races, those issues have dropped off and my performance has stayed consistent. All of this has been made possible by the work with my sports nutritionist, Nicci Schock and Elevate by Nicci.
Sodium loading is a two part process. The night before the workout/race in question, you take a certain amount of sodium. For me, it's roughly 3000mg of sodium mixed with water and orange juice. The oj acts to help absorb the sodium and process it in your system. I'm sure there's a more scientific way to describe it, but that works for me. Then, in the morning, you finish off the process with a smaller amount of sodium. The benefit here is that your body will hold on to water as you drink it. It doesn't mean you won't sweat and lose water, but you are ahead of the game and able to hold on to more for longer. This is especially helpful when it's hot outside or if you are a heavy sweater. As you add electrolytes / salt tabs to the in-race/training nutrition, then the sodium stores in your body won't be depleted as quickly. The end benefit is less muscle cramping and fatigue and more performance.
It's definitely a trial and error process to find the right balance for sodium loading and not feeling bloated and uncomfortable. But once you find the right intake, the results are amazing. There's no reason to think that salt is an enemy of training and performance. As is the case with all parts of nutrition, just be smart. Test different approaches in training and keep track of what works.

In November, ABC's series Scandal aired an episode in which an abortion took place, to the background music of "Silent Night." I find that utterly appalling. Some have pointed out that this episode was essentially an advertisement for Planned Parenthood, in the wake of their selling-baby-body-parts scandal. (By the way, that's appalling as well, but remember that killing babies is far worse than selling their body parts afterwards).
How can a song celebrating the holy night of our dear Savior's birth become the soundtrack of an abortion? "Ave Maria" is the soundtrack to the post-abortion scene, in case the viewer didn't get the point. Actually, there is a connection between killing babies and the story of Christ's birth. It was Herod who sought to kill every boy two years old or younger in the region to ensure the rival king wouldn't survive. Matthew saw that as a fulfillment of Jeremiah's prophecy: "A voice is heard in Ramah, weeping and great mourning, Rachel weeping for her children and refusing to be comforted, because they are no more." (Mt.2:18). Weeping would be the right attitude for the death of a child.
ABC seems to be trying to stick it in our face here, defiling a holy song while trying to sanctify a very unholy activity. Yes, those aborted babies are now in heavenly peace, but they're not sleeping. I think they're joining "the souls of those who had been slain because of the word of God" in crying out, "How long, Sovereign Lord, holy and true, until you judge the inhabitants of the earth and avenge our blood?" (Revelation 6:9-10). If baby Jesus had been killed, he couldn't have offered the sacrifice on the cross that also covers the sins of abortionists, who can receive forgiveness through him.
Following the San Bernardino shooting, while information was still coming out, the Washington Post had an article entitled, "Attackers slay 14 in Calif. in deadliest mass shooting since Sandy Hook." Hmm, why compare this shooting spree to a school shooting? Could this be an attempt to shift the subject matter away from Islamic militancy? Well, Sandy Hook shooting also happened in December, the article pointed out. Quite a significant parallel, don't you think? Both shootings happened in December. I guess that's a more significant parallel than anything with the Paris shooting, which isn't mentioned at all, but of course, the Planned Parenthood shooting is mentioned. I realize that responsible journalists must avoid the temptation to jump to conclusions, and must let evidence unfold over time. Yet it's very interesting to see someone attempt to skew the foreground by holding it up against different backgrounds, none of which proved to be relevant in the end.
I do believe that accepting large numbers of Syrian refugees is likely to increase terrorist attacks on our soil. An alarming percentage of refugees who were surveyed support ISIS. However, I view the immigration of even Jihadist Muslims as a great evangelistic opportunity, with home court advantage. On their turf, missionaries are beheaded. Here, the opportunities to show love, take risks, and demonstrate kindness can bear fruit in evangelism. The person who doesn't believe Jihadist Muslims can be converted doesn't believe in the transforming Gospel of Jesus Christ, which converted Saul of Tarsus the professional persecutor. Even if we have an increase in "Allahu Akbar's," it's worth the risk.
1 Peter 3:15b-17 is helpful here: "Always be prepared to give an answer to everyone who asks you to give the reason for the hope that you have. But do this with gentleness and respect, keeping a clear conscience, so that those who speak maliciously against your good behavior in Christ may be ashamed of their slander. For it is better, if it is God's will, to suffer for doing good than for doing evil." (NIV). If we believe the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ is the real God, we should be confident enough. And I believe most of the refugees have no ill intentions.
Second, far more Scriptures refer to "false gods" (e.g. Deut.32:17, Ps.4:2, 40:4, 106:37, Jer.16:19, Amos 2:4), that are "not gods at all." So there is a sense that every idol we worship has become a substitute for our longing for the true God, whether we know him or not. Yet that substitute is not really "god." We were all created by the same God, and we long for what only he can give us, but we do not all worship the same God. Islam is like Christianity in being monotheistic, yet it rejects the Trinity, so I have a hard time saying that we worship the "same God." Nonetheless, I conceded that in missionary or evangelistic situations, it is easier to politely posit continuity between the false deity and the real God and to get them to understand him rightly, especially when we are using common terms such as "Creator." This does become a semantic issue at some level, but I think Wheaton is right in being concerned that one of their staff members seems so eager to identify with Islam, a false religion.

Cootamundra High School Newsletter
Term 3 ‐ Week 8, 2021
PRINCIPAL: Mrs Leesa Daly
DEPUTY PRINCIPAL: Mr Christopher Payne
Principal's Report
Circumstances have changed dramatically for us all over the past fortnight, however this was not entirely unexpected.
I would like to thank the whole school community for their ongoing support and for rising to the challenges which have included keeping our students at home and safe. There is a glimmer of hope, that in the event that stay at home rules are lifted in regional NSW before the end of term 3, then our students and staff will be able to return to fulltime face to face lessons in week 10 (Monday 13th September) on Level 3 COVID Safe School Operations. We have two big weeks of continued remote learning from home, whilst maintaining reduced movement and close contact with friends and family. Let's continue to do the hard yards and hopefully we will be rewarded for our efforts in the very near future.
Most students have embraced learning from home since Monday 16th August (Week 6). We have been strategically upskilling students in the use of the online learning, Microsoft Teams and Google Classroom, platforms for a considerable time anticipating this may happen. Students and staff were ready to continue teaching and learning remotely and the overwhelming feedback from students and parents/carers is that this has been a seamless transition this time round. Students are much more at ease and have demonstrated resilience and enhanced independent learning skills. Keep up the good work everyone.
Every teacher will continue to have their designated student work for the week on their classroom learning platform each Monday. All work should be completed and submitted by no later than Friday. Teaching staff are providing individual feedback to all students on the work that is submitted.
I would like to commend our Year 12 students who are showing shear grit and determination as they continue to deal with the ever-changing details of their HSC. We now know that HSC exams will start, in a Covid safe manner, on the 9th November with a revised timetable to be released early September. Results will be released in mid-January.
We encourage all parents and carers to use the passkey, that was emailed to you all a couple of weeks ago, so you can access the new Sentral Parent Portal. This platform enables you to see student notices, your students timetable and any absences that may need addressing. It will also be a key method for the school to communicate important and timely information to you.
It was awesome to catch up with students last week as Year Advisors led remote cohort gatherings on Microsoft Teams. Wellbeing activities, games, fun and laughter made up these sessions. Technology is truly amazing. Congratulations to the Year Advisors for developing and hosting engaging and timely year group gatherings. We will do these again in week 9.
It was a shame that we had to postpone our two parent/carer sessions we had planned for weeks 6 and 8. We will look to reschedule both the Tips and Tricks to using Microsoft Teams/Google Classroom + Introduction to the new Parent Portal as well as the Wellways QPR (Question, Persuade and Refer) Suicide Prevention Gatekeeper training.
All students eligible for a vaccine are strongly encouraged to book appointments as soon as they can. All parents and carers who have not been vaccinated are strongly encouraged to get vaccinated as soon as possible. Vaccinations for all school-based staff, across all sectors, will be mandatory from the 8th November. Vaccination is a key tool to keeping all members of our school and the wider community safe and will allow schools to be fully operational.
Keep up the good work everyone. Stay positive and look for the little things that bring you joy. Stay safe and continue to be kind to one another.
Mrs Daly

CHS LIBRARY
From the Library Desk
We are so lucky at Cootamundra High School to have a library full of great resources both, recreational and academic. Our fiction collection contains all the popular books listed for 2021 and many students are borrowing these books throughout the week. Our senior students, while enjoying reading for recreation are also becoming more focused on their academic pursuits. To assist them in their studies, we have the latest Prelim. and HSC study guides available for them to utilise whilst focusing on their private study in the library.
The modern school library is more than a learning area and resource centre, it is also a valuable school hub. During the whole school celebration of NAIDOC week this year we were lucky enough to host Wiradjuri Elder Aunty Elaine Lomas who taught some Wiradjuri words to groups of students in the library. Elaine brought the Wiradjuri language to life with her humour and in-depth knowledge. She taught students the concept of 'Yindyamarra' which means respect and honour … and that's also about how you behave with your elders and other students in the playground!
To go along with the fun library-based activities our students can enjoy during their break times (e.g. board-games, card games and reading for pleasure), we also made a special effort to televise the recent Olympics Games on our 'big-screen' which students enjoyed watching and commenting on – many great discussions were held. We also look forward to showing the upcoming Paralympics in our Library.
The school library is also keen to promote our community links with our local library, the Cootamundra Town Library. Some of our students have taken the opportunity to go the Town Library and utilise their facilities to supplement their study after school hours. The Cootamundra Town Library also provides free wi-fi access which students can use to find extra resources which will potentially add depth to their assignments. Some students have also taken advantage of the opportunity to join the Town Library as members and access their eBooks, eAudio and eMagazines.
Like everyone, we're looking forward to Spring and planning more activities to celebrate!

JUNIOR PDHPE
This term, Year 7 are studying a unit called Understanding Mental Health. This unit focuses on developing students understanding around Mental Health and the resources that are accessible for students and the wider community. To date the students have identified the difference between a reliable and unreliable source, research around Mental Health conditions and misconceptions around Mental Health.
This term, Year 8 are studying a unit called Fit for Life. This unit examines the benefits of a balanced lifestyle and the strategies students can use to promote a lifetime of physical activity. To date students have identified and explored the five components of health and looked at the factors that affect our health and wellbeing such as environment, disease and lifestyle behaviours. Students have also conducted a survey of their overall health and we are starting to examine the cultural influences on physical activity
Our practical unit of study for this term was Court Sports but the prolonged wet weather and upgrades to the synthetic courts has meant that we have instead focused on quad based games such as Handball/Volleyball, European Handball and Speedminton. Once the court upgrade has been completed students will be engaging in Basketball, Netball and Volleyball.
Year 9 have commenced a unit entitled Diversity, Inclusion and Mental Health. This unit focuses on developing students' personal identity and the many factors that can influence diversity, inclusion and mental health. Over the last few weeks, students have examined their values and beliefs and the influences on these as well as norms and stereotypes that shape the way we see the world.
Leading a Balanced Lifestyle is the unit of study for Year 10 this term. In this unit students are asked to examine their food and physical activity habits and look at strategies to create environments that would support their health. As part of this unit, students have also set health goals using the acronym SMARTER which helps them to create goals that are specific, measurable and realistic. It was interesting to read the number of students who identified the need for more sleep as their goal.
YEAR 9 and 10 Prac.
In practicals, both Year 9 and 10 are completing a unit entitled Kick, Pass, Catch which would normally include practicals such as touch football, soccer, league tag, AFL and variations of each game. Due to the prolonged wet weather that we have had over the last few weeks, we have instead focused on activities that we can play in the quad such as European handball, Spike Ball, Handball/Volleyball, Speedminton and variations of these games.
Exam Prep...
Year 11 PDHPE have begun preparing for their Preliminary Examinations at the end of Term 3. Students have been designing large mind maps on the content that has been covered and have regularly been completing/peer marking past paper questions under examination conditions.
YEAR 9/10 MATHEMATICS (STAGE 5.1)
Geometric Designs
Ms Willoughby's Year 9/10 Mathematics class have been learning about Geometry. They have been studying the use of similar figures and how they are embedded in Islamic designs. They have also been demonstrating different techniques for producing scale drawings.
STEAM AT MILESTONES DAY-CARE CENTRE
STEAM at Milestones
During Term 2 students from Cootamundra High school visited the Childcare Centre Milestones on Wednesday afternoons. In their time at the centre students' taught STEAM lessons to the toddler and pre-school students.
We had a blast learning about the chemical reactions in colours as well as making jelly fish from reusable materials. We look forward to continuing to work with Milestones in the future.
STAGE 5 FOOD TECH
Food in Australia
This term, Stage 5 Food Technology are completing a unit on Food in Australia. This unit examines native Australian bush food and the multicultural influences in Australia. As part of this unit, students have been cooking food from different cultures including Johnny Cakes, Crepes and Bun Bao Xao.
TUTORING SESSIONS
Students recently had the opportunity to hone their writing skills by creating recounts of their favourite events and moments of the 2021 Olympics.

Update for Year 12 Students and Parents and Carers
With a short time to go before Year 12 commence their HSC examinations, students have been busy with preparations for university entry, apprenticeships, traineeships, gap years and casual work.
By the end of term, Mrs Alderman will have met with all students a number of times to discuss post - school options and pathways.
Students preparing for university, and their parents and carers are reminded that deadlines are approaching for a number of admissions, and are urged to keep an eye on Google Classroom and their emails for updates. CSU Advantage (Direct Entry Round 2) is now open and will close at the end of the month. Payments and registrations to UAC are open for a while yet. However, students are strongly encouraged to pay prior to the end of September to avoid a price hike.
Below are some tips and links for university entry in 2022 and beyond:
1. UAC (Universities Admissions Centre) – the 'broker' that acts on behalf of the student and their chosen universities and courses. They calculate ATARS, coordinate the Schools Recommendation Scheme and equity programs, make offers and process some scholarships.
https://www.uac.edu.au/future-applicants
For students to access UAC, they need to apply and pay a fee and will need to do this before preferences can be put in, and before they apply for the Schools Recommendation Scheme.
To apply, a student number and a PIN is required, which will have been emailed. If these can't be found, ring UAC or chat live, and someone will assist.
https://www.uac.edu.au/future-applicants/faqs-and-forms
2. Schools Recommendation Scheme (SRS)
Certain universities may make early offers to Year students using criteria other than, or in addition to their ATAR.
Use the link below to find out which universities are participating.
SRS Applications close on the 19th September at midnight.
https://www.uac.edu.au/current-applicants/schools-recommendation-schemes
3. Educational Access Scheme (EAS)
If studies have been impacted upon in Years 11 or 12, students may be eligible for this scheme. Depending on the university and the application, further adjustment points may be made to their ATAR.
Socioeconomic Indexes for Areas (SEIFA) - now used to calculate adjustment to ATARS (this used to be based on the school and called bonus points). If students are eligible, they will be notified via email after the UAC application is submitted.
https://www.uac.edu.au/future-applicants/scholarships-and-schemes/educational-access-schemes
4. Direct Entry
A number of universities are offering this scheme and students don't necessarily need to go through UAC to get an offer. In most cases, they need to answer some personal attribute questions when they apply, and may be asked to submit marks from Year 11.
Charles Sturt University (CSU) Advantage Round 2 is now open and firm offers will be made in late September.
https://study.csu.edu.au/study-options/pathways/charles-sturt-advantage
5. Scholarships
Many scholarships for universities are open now. An example is in the link below for CSU. Use the filters provided by the universities – it is surprising how many are on offer.
https://study.csu.edu.au/get-support/scholarships
Our Local Country Education Foundation will also be opening applications to students completing their schooling. Students do not need to be planning on attending university to be eligible - the scholarships are open to all students seeking financial assistance with further education and training. More information is available on the Country Education Foundation website, or from Mrs Alderman.
Work Placement - Years 11 and 12
A number of our senior students are on Work Placement over the next month, including Automotive, Information Technology and Construction. TAFE Riverina Institute and the school are grateful to local business owners for hosting our students. Students are urged to meet with their prospective employers well in advance to complete paperwork and inductions so as to avoid last minute rushes for signatures and appointments.
Positions Vacant – Seasonal Work
There is no shortage of work coming up for students keen to gain some seasonal employment.
BackCreek Orchard near Young is already recruiting for the cherry harvest, and would love to hear from any interested students. The contact is Michelle Walton 0438 166 215 (text please), or via email info@backcreekorchard.com.au
GrainCorp are also recruiting, with a number of local jobs becoming available for the 2021/2022 grain harvest. This information has already been posted to Year 11 and 12 Google Classroom. It is important that you start your application early – it is online and takes a while. But worth it!

ATF investigating heist at Dragonman gun store in Colorado Springs
Mel "Dragon Man" Bernstein, owner of Dragonman gun store and shooting range in Colorado Springs. (Photo: Facebook)
The ATF is investigating a heist in which thieves stole 65 firearms from a Colorado Springs gun shop owned by the self-proclaimed "most armed man in America."
The incident went down Sunday night when Dragonman gun store and shooting range owner Mel "Dragon Man" Bernstein went out to dinner, the Denver Post reported. Several of Bernstein's 35 surveillance video cameras then captured four thieves stealing the man's truck and crashing through an electrically charged fence and metal garage to get inside the premises.
Bernstein, also the owner of a gun museum, said the thieves were lucky he was out to dinner.
"There's a lot of idiots out there," he said. "I'm the most armed man in America. I have over 200 machine guns in my name. If I had been there they would have gotten shot in the head."
Bernstein described the four bandits as "young kids," skinny and wearing masks and hoods. He was helping the ATF inventory the stolen firearms when the Post reached out to him for comment.
"They took whatever they could get in six minutes and took off," Bernstein said, and added, "No matter how safe you try to make it they'll find a way to get in."
Bernstein noted the suspects got away with valuable firearms, but did not escape with his electronically controlled machine guns, which are the most expensive weapons in his shop. The thieves also left behind his Harley Davidson motorcycle, emblazoned with a fire-breathing dragon, the source of his "Dragon Man" nickname.
Officials with the ATF, taking over for the El Paso County Sheriff's Office, later said they have taken at least one suspect into custody, the Colorado Springs Gazette reported. Camron Specht, 18, was arrested on suspicion of second-degree burglary and will most likely face federal charges. Another suspect has pending federal charges as well, but no further details were offered.
The ATF added that most of the guns have been recovered, including a fully-automatic weapon.


I love feathers in jewelry, and with Thanksgiving coming up, it just seemed appropriate to share these. If you're new to jewelry making, don't be scared! Simple projects like this one will boost your confidence and turn you into a pro in no time. Also, if you need some extra help, Bev from Flamingo Toes has a whole section for jewelry tips that will explain any basics you have questions about.
Feathers add a fun, tribal edge to outfits, and you can find a number of different patterns and colors at your local hobby shop. Add different colored beads or other embellishments to make them your own!
ONE: first, choose the feathers that you'd like crimped and one crimp bead.
TWO: insert the end of the feathers into your crimp bead, and use your flat nose pliers to press each side down to contain the end of the feathers.
THREE: here is what your finished crimped feathers should look like.
ONE: insert a jump ring through the hole of the crimp bead (but don't close it yet!) Repeat for your second set of feathers if desired.
THREE: insert your bead through your jump ring, add your earring hooks, then close your jump ring and you're done!
I hope you enjoy your new earrings! With the holidays coming up, these would also make a quick, stylish gift.
Wow. These are so cute and quick. I haven't made any jewelry before, but this doesn't look so bad. Plus feather earrings would be really light on your ears. Thanks for the great idea.
These are so great! I love feather anything...going to have to give them a try! Thanks!
These would be awesome to make for my sister-in-law (who is the queen of beading) :) Thanks for this fun and cute project!
I love feathers, thanks for the tutorial!


• Cancer cells are weak and confused, and should be imagined as something that can fall apart like ground hamburger.
• There is an army of different kinds of white blood cells that can overwhelm the cancer cells.
• White blood cells are aggressive and want to seek out and attack the cancer cells.
At a more respectable level of discourse, Harvard physician Jerome Groopman wrote an entire 2012 New Yorker article on scientific attempts to enlist the immune system against cancer—without ever once mentioning that certain types of immune cells have a tendency to go over to the other side.
But the evidence for immune cell collusion with cancer keeps piling up. Macrophages supply cancer cells with chemical growth factors and help build the new blood vessels required by a growing tumor. So intimately are they involved with the deadly progress of cancer that they can account for up to 50 percent of a tumor's mass. Macrophages also appear to be necessary if the cancer is to progress to its deadliest phase, metastasis. When cancerous mice were treated to eliminate all their macrophages, their tumors stopped metastasizing.
A May 2014 paper in the journal Cancer Cell offers a chilling account of the macrophage–cancer cell interaction. Macrophages are among the most mobile cells in the body, capable of moving through the bloodstream or creeping, like amoebae, by extending pseudopods and pulling themselves along. When macrophages encounter breast cancer cells, they do not do what we would like them to do, which is to attack and engulf the "enemy." Instead, the Cancer Cell article suggests, the macrophages release a growth factor that encourages the cancer cells to elongate themselves into a mobile, invasive form poised for metastasis. These elongated cancer cells, in turn, release a chemical that further activates the macrophages—leading to the release of more growth factor, and so on. A positive feedback loop is established. Or, to put it more colorfully, the macrophages and cancer cells seem to excite one another to the point where the cancer cells are pumped up and ready to set out from the breast in search of fresh lebensraum—in the lungs, for example, or the liver or brain.
You will find little of this drama in the article itself, and not only because it is a scientific paper that happens to have seventeen coauthors. Their data focuses entirely on the chemical exchange between the two types of cells—which is a little like describing a human flirtation entirely in terms of hormones and pheromones. But what goes on among the living cells in the body? How many cells (macrophages and cancer cells) are required before the positive feedback loop can take off? Do the macrophages and cancer cells actually touch one another, perhaps briefly fusing cell membranes, or do the chemical messages they exchange travel through the intercellular matrix? And then there are the deeper, perhaps unanswerable, questions, like what's in this for the macrophages, which by enabling metastasis seal their own doom? Or for that matter, what's in it for the cancer cells, which will die along with the organism they destroy?
If science seems to balk at the behavior of individual cells (and small groups of cells), this is because twentieth-century biology, in its reductionist zeal, tended to zip right past cells to get to the more glamorous molecular level. Cancer research came to focus on the DNA mutations that predispose cells to a career of selfish reproduction. Immunology downplayed macrophages in favor of an obsession with antibodies—the protein molecules that can mark a "foreign" cell, like a microbe, for destruction—although it is chiefly macrophages that do the destroying. My first thesis advisor at Rockefeller University won a Nobel Prize for elucidating the structure of antibody molecules. My second thesis advisor got far less recognition, and a much smaller lab, for his work on how macrophages kill and digest their prey.
The cells of our body are, in a sense, tiny animals themselves.
Part of the appeal of molecules over cells is that molecules can be collected in test tubes like any nonliving chemical, stored in a refrigerator, and analyzed at leisure by the usual chemical methods. Cells can be pulverized and fractionated into their constituent molecules, of course, but living cells have to be observed with the patience of an ethnologist studying chimpanzee behavior in the wild. After months of biochemical studies of macrophages, I once had a chance to see a living one under a phase contrast microscope and was surprised, in my naïveté, to find that it was moving, its surface rippling and corrugating like that of a sea anemone. The cells of our body are analogs of, and evolutionary descendants of, the unicellular creatures that preceded multicellular life and, in a sense, are tiny animals themselves.
Cells are constantly making decisions about what to do, where to go or when to divide. Many of these decisions are hard-wired in our DNA or strictly controlled by external signals and stimuli. Others, though, seem to be made autonomously by individual cells.
Just a decade ago, any talk about cellular "decision-making" would have been taken for whimsy. Cells, as we knew them then, were programmed both genetically and epigenetically (through chemical modifications to DNA occurring during development) to perform their functions in the body. Heart cells beat, intestinal cells secrete digestive enzymes, nerve cells conduct electrical signals, etc.—and those that falter at their tasks obligingly commit suicide through a process called apoptosis. Furthermore, most body cells, most of the time, are fixed in place by glue-like attachments to other cells. Individual cells have no decisions to make, we used to think, because they have no choice but to serve the organism by tirelessly carrying out their assigned roles.
But that old deterministic model of cell behavior offered little insight into cellular rebellions such as cancer. Many cells may be exposed to a carcinogen, but only some turn into cancer cells, and of those, only a fraction go on to a career of metastasis. "Decisions" are made. As for macrophages, collusion with cancer cells is only one of the ways they can undermine the organism. Overly ambitious macrophages play a central role in autoimmune diseases and the many inflammatory ailments, like arthritis, that plague the elderly. In coronary artery disease, macrophages pile up on the arterial walls, where they fatten themselves on lipids until there is no space in the artery for blood to flow through. The macrophages are doing what comes naturally to them: eating. Unfortunately, there is no central authority to tell them to desist lest the whole multicellular contraption that is the body come to grief.
As an analogy to the erratic immune system (which includes macrophages, NK cells, and a host of other cell types, including antibody-producing lymphocytes), biology teachers often invoke the military. Any human society within a spear's throw of potential enemies needs some kind of defensive force—minimally, an armed group who can defend against invaders. But there are risks to maintaining a garrison: the warriors may get greedy and turn against their own people, demanding ever more food and other resources. Similarly, in the case of the body, without immune cells we would be helpless in the face of invading microbes. With them, we face the possibility of insurrection and self-inflicted death.
It is disconcerting to think of the biological self, or body, as a collection of tiny selves. The image that comes to mind is the grotesque portrait of a super-sized king in the frontispiece of Hobbes's Leviathan: on close inspection, the king turns out to be composed of hundreds of little people crowded into his arms and torso. Hobbes's point was that human societies need autocratic leaders; otherwise they risk degenerating into a "war of all against all." But no "king" rules the body. Despite, or sometimes because of, all the communications—chemical and electrical—that connect the tissues and cells of the body, chaos can always break out.
The "wisdom of the body" does not always apply at the microscopic level. An individual cell can sabotage the entire operation.
It would be nice to think that the brain, with which we do our thinking, is a more tightly disciplined place, set off as it is from the turmoil of the body by the blood–brain barrier, like a computer kept in a dust-free, air-conditioned room. But living brain cells are not entirely predictable. The glial cells that support and nourish neurons can become cancerous (as, more rarely, can neurons themselves). Then too, the brain has its own army of macrophages, or microglia as they are called, and overactive microglia can, like macrophages in other parts of the body, create damaging inflammations, leading to neurodegenerative diseases. Bizarrely enough, new research this year shows that breast cancer cells sometimes "disguise" themselves as neurons, penetrate the blood–brain barrier, and start fresh tumors in the brain. If individual cells have functions, they do not always seem to know it.
It took science until 2012 to officially acknowledge that nonhuman animals possess feelings and consciousness. It may take a bit longer for biology to admit that the cells in our bodies are not simply automata, that they possess, if not consciousness, at least some sort of agency. As recently as 2008, an article on the confusing taxonomy of macrophages proposed that a new, "more informative" classification "should be based on the fundamental macrophage functions," which are defined as "host defence, wound healing and immune regulation." What about macrophages' role in abetting cancer—or in instigating life-threatening inflammatory diseases? What "functions" do these activities represent? The "wisdom of the body," which supposedly keeps the body unified as a single sustainable organism, does not always apply at the microscopic level, where an individual cell can sabotage the entire operation.
Natural selection should weed out cellular traitors, you might think, since people who are vulnerable to cancer, autoimmune diseases, and pathological inflammation—at least at early ages—are less likely to reproduce. The truth is, though, that we do not know for sure what natural selection means at the cellular level. Often, when a person with cancer is subjected to chemotherapy, some of the cancer cells survive through what can only be called natural selection. A victory at the cellular level may mean defeat for the organism.
This is madness, of course. But then, who are we, as human beings, to be appalled by the irresponsible "decisions" of our body's cells? We too are biological organisms, supposedly doing our best to survive and promote the survival of our kin. And we too, like rogue cells in our bodies, can be murderous, suicidal, and systematically destructive of our physical habitats. We, of all creatures, should appreciate the perversity, as well as the clockwork precision, of biology.

Strengthening the Arab World economy
Omran Sharaf, Project Manager of Emirates Mars Mission, Hope Probe
The mission aims to inspire the region to be more innovative, creative and knowledge-based
The Emirates Mars Mission will lead to a "more competitive" Arab world economy and a stronger integration with the global society, said Omran Sharaf, Project Manager of Emirates Mars Mission, Hope Probe, as the countdown has started to the official launch.
"We are actually building the capacity and capability in advanced sciences in the UAE and the region. This is something important for everyone. It will help the region to have stability and a more competitive economy and integrate more with the global community," Sharaf added.
He expressed hope that the mission would inspire the region to be more innovative, creative and knowledge-based.
"Having a stable region is very important for the world. Having a strong national and regional economy is important for global community," he pointed out. "That's why the UAE called the mission 'Hope' as it will make such an impact, but you cannot measure it today or tomorrow, you will see it in 10 or 15 years."
According to Sharaf, 37, the project has the potential to inspire 100 million youth in the Arab world and the data collected from Mars - being the first of such a mission by an Arab nation - will benefit the whole region.
The Hope Probe is scheduled to lift off at 01:58 UAE time today from the Tanegashima Space Centre in Japan. Asked whether any new challenges emerged after transferring the Hope Probe to Japan, Sharaf said: "There are normal technical challenges only, which we can overcome. Preparations are going as scheduled."
The Hope Probe would serve the humanity in many different ways, especially by sharing data openly without any restrictions with more than 200 institutions across the world.
"This international collaboration is a new model and a new approach, which will bring nations closer to each other," he said.
"When it comes to science of the mission, we will have the first holistic view of the Martian atmosphere at different times of the day and various seasons. Global scientific community will get such data for the first time.
"We are serving the humanity by bringing this new knowledge, which they did not have before. Such knowledge will help us understand more about our own planet."
Sharaf also played a crucial role in the launch of UAE's first satellite DubaiSat-1 in 2009 and further advanced satellite DubaiSat-2 in 2013.
During these years, the mission has influenced the youth and educational system in the UAE, Sharaf added.
The educational curriculum went through a transformation as universities introduced space-related courses and more science-based programmes.
More students are opting science subjects since then, he pointed out. "There was an impact on whole UAE community, everybody is keen about the Mars Mission and its science and technology."

Back in the Vietnam era, there was this chemical called Agent Orange. It was sprayed on patches of jungle where enemy troops might want to hide, and it killed pretty much everything it touched...
The British paper The Guardian is reporting that Monsanto is withdrawing requests for approval to sell eight of its products, including some genetically modified plants, in Europe.
This is unusual behavior for the chemical behemoth. Why would they do such a thing? Their stockholders must be livid.
Monsanto has only one approved product in Europe, a genetically modified corn, altered to be resistant to a European corn pest. Monsanto GM corn accounts for only 1 percent of the corn grown in Europe.
To a person who carefully watches what they put in their mouth, Monsanto needs no introduction. I've written about them in the past myself. For the rest of you, here's a summary:
Several companies made Agent Orange, but Monsanto's was the strongest. It has been estimated by some green organizations that over 3 million people were affected by Agent Orange, and that 500,000 Vietnamese children were born with birth defects, resulting in calls for Monsanto to be tried for war crimes.
Thousands of Vietnam veterans suffering from effects, they were sure, of exposure to Agent Orange were disallowed benefits. "Monsanto studies showed that [Agent Orange] was not a human carcinogen," according to former EPA insider William Sanjour; when in fact, Sanjour says, "If [the studies] were done correctly, they would have reached just the opposite result."
Vietnam ended and, after years on the government gravy train Monsanto was hurting for business. In 1976 they came out with a product called Roundup. Different chemistry, same end result: Kills pretty much everything it touches.
One might say they've had some success with it: The Huffington Post reported in 2007 as much as 185 million pounds of glyphosate – the main ingredient in Roundup - was used by U.S. farmers that year, double the amount used in 2001.
I'm sorry I don't have more up-to-date figures. It almost seems like Monsanto got to someone at the USDA - as they stopped reporting pesticide usage figures in 2008.
Would it be safe to assume glyphosate use has doubled again by now, to over 300 million pounds per year? That's about one pound of glyphosate for every man, woman and child in the U.S., dumped on the ground, every year.
Monsanto, of course, claims: "Studies show that the soil-binding potential of glyphosate is stronger than that of nearly any other herbicide." They say it binds strongly to soil for an average of 32 days, too strongly to be washed away by rainfall, and long enough for it to break down into a harmless amino acid.
However Paul Capel, environmental chemist and head of the agricultural chemicals team at the U.S. Geological Survey Office, said, "Glyphosate, the key ingredient in "Roundup" herbicide, was found in every stream sample examined in Mississippi in a two-year period and in most air samples taken."
And now they've withdrawn their applications for governmental approval of their products in Europe. Why? We'll get to that in the next column.

Karl (o Carl) Philipp Josef, Prince von Wrede (; 29 de abril de 176712 de diciembre de 1838) fue un mariscal de campo de Baviera. Fue aliado de la Francia napoleónica hasta que negoció el Tratado de Ried con Austria en 1813. Posteriormente, Baviera se unió a la coalición.

Primeros años
Von Wrede nació en Heidelberg, el más joven de los tres hijos de Ferdinand Josef Wrede (1722-1793), creado en 1791 como primer barón von Wrede, y esposa, casada el 21 de marzo de 1746 con Anna Katharina Jünger (1729–1804), con quien tuvo dos hijos más: la baronesa Luise von Wrede (23 de septiembre de 17489 de febrero de 1794), casada con Philipp, Baron von Horn (fallecido en 1834); y el barón Georg von Wrede (8 de diciembre de 17653 de abril de 1843), casado el 17 de enero de 1808 con Julie Zarka de Lukafalva (1781Osen, 1 de agosto de 1847), con quien tuvo descendencia.

Carrera temprana
Fue educado para la carrera de funcionario civil bajo el gobierno del Electorado del Palatinado, pero al estallar la campaña de 1799 formó un cuerpo de voluntarios en el Palatinado y fue nombrado coronel. Este cuerpo excitó la alegría de los bien entrenados Austrians con los que sirvió, pero su coronel pronto lo puso en buenas condiciones, y se distinguió durante la retirada de Kray en Ulm. En la Batalla de Hohenlinden Wrede comandó una de las brigadas de infantería del Palatinado con crédito, y después de la paz de Lunéville fue nombrado teniente general en el Ejército bávaro, que estaba entrando en un período de reformas. Wrede pronto se hizo muy popular y se distinguió por oponerse a las invasiones austriacas de 1805.

Wrede participó en la campaña contra Prusia, ganando una distinción especial en la Batalla de Pułtusk. Pero la actitud de los franceses hacia las tropas bávaras y las acusaciones de looting contra sí mismo, despertó el temperamento fogoso del general, y tanto en 1807 como en 1809 la armonía exterior sólo se mantuvo por el tacto de Maximiliano I de Baviera, el rey de Bavaria.

1809

En la Guerra de la Quinta Coalición, lideró la 2.ª División Bávara en el VII Cuerpo. Desempeñó un papel importante en la Batalla de Abensberg el 20 de abril de 1809. Por la mañana, sondeó la defensa austriaca de Joseph Radetzky en Siegenburg. Incapaz de avanzar, marchó con su división hacia el norte hasta Biburg y cruzó el Abens River. Desde Biburg, se trasladó a Kirchdorf y atacó a la Frederick Bianchi's brigada reforzada. Cuando los austriacos se retiraron, Wrede los persiguió agresivamente hasta Pfeffenhausen tarde esa noche. Dirigió el avance desde Pfeffenhausen y participó en la Batalla de Landshut el 21 de abril, capturando 11 cañones. El 24 de abril, su división fue derrotada en la Batalla de Neumarkt-Sankt Veit cuando Johann von Hiller contraatacó con una fuerza superior. Después de ocupar Salzburg el 29 de abril, Wrede se movió hacia el suroeste contra la Rebelión tirolesa. Hizo retroceder a los tiroleses irregulares en Lofer el 11 de mayo y derrotó a los tiroleses y regulares mixtos de Franz Fenner en Waidring al día siguiente. El 13 de mayo, desempeñó un papel importante en aplastar la división de Johann Gabriel Chasteler de Courcelles en la Batalla de Wörgl.

Después de la derrota francesa en la Batalla de Aspern-Essling, Napoleón I de Francia llamó a la división de Wrede a Viena como refuerzo. Al principio , la división de Wrede estuvo en reserva en la Batalla de Wagram. En la tarde del 6 de julio, los bávaros fueron enviados a la batalla en apoyo del célebre ataque de Etienne Jacques Joseph MacDonald. En una carga exitosa contra el pueblo de Sussenbrunn, Wrede fue rozado por una bala. Temiendo que la herida fuera fatal, le dijo a MacDonald: "Dile al emperador que muero por él. Le recomiendo a mi esposa e hijos". Al ver que la lesión de Wrede era menor, el general francés sonrió y respondió: "Creo que usted mismo podrá hacerle esta recomendación". El general avergonzado se levantó y siguió al frente de sus tropas.

Carrera posterior

Los bávaros fueron durante varios años los aliados activos de Napoleón, y Wrede dirigió el cuerpo bávaro que luchó en Rusia en 1812. Justo antes de la Batalla de Leipzig en octubre de 1813, negoció el Tratado de Ried entre Austria y Baviera, por lo que Baviera cambió de bando. Wrede luego luchó con los aliados contra Napoleón. Después de Leipzig, trató de bloquear el escape francés en la Batalla de Hanau el 30 y 31 de octubre. Al ver las disposiciones iniciales de los ejércitos bávaros en la batalla, se dice que Napoleón dijo de Wrede: "Lo nombré conde, pero no pude convertirlo en general". Wrede posicionó mal a sus tropas y Napoleón rompió una de sus alas, causando 9.000 bajas. En 1814 fue creado príncipe y mariscal de campo. Wrede representó a Baviera en el Congreso de Viena.

Murió en Ellingen. Von Wrede fue sin duda el principal soldado bávaro de su época, ganando más de 100 batallas a lo largo de su vida.

In 1967, the Green Bay Packers were playing the Dallas Cowboys in Green Bay for the right to represent the National Football League in only the second Super Bowl to be played. The weather conditions through the game were so severe that the game has come to be known as "The Ice Bowl." When the game began, it was 15 below with a minus-49 wind chill. The teams battled back and forth, somehow managing to push each other up and down the field. As the game was nearing the end, the temperature had dropped to 17 below and a minus-57 wind chill.
But that game became famous not just because of the cold. The Green Bay Packers' right guard, Jerry Kramer, had been studying films of the Dallas Cowboys games, and he had noticed that the man he would be facing on the other side of the ball tended to be off-balance when he first rose up from his position.
With only sixteen seconds left in the game, Dallas was leading 17-14, but the Packers were threatening to score. Now was the opportunity for Kramer to use what he knew about the opposing lineman. When the play was called, Kramer pushed that opponent aside, wedging an opening for Bart Starr to sneak into the end zone for a touchdown. Jerry Kramer took advantage of his opportunity, and Bart Starr took advantage of his opportunity, and the Green Bay Packers won 21-17.
How many times in a single day do you and I have for doing something good, to encourage someone, to represent Christ, to speak to others of their eternal destiny? Those opportunities to share Christ are so much more important than a football game!
This week we have a tremendous opportunity. The gap is opening before us, and we should forge ahead. There are people around us who need to know Jesus, and it is our responsibility to tell them! Every time we can tell others about Christ, we should. But recognizing the opportunities with godly wisdom requires that we look for them. They are not always going to just fall into our laps. If we are going to buy up the time we have remaining, we should be looking for opportunities to serve God and serve others. Our churches should see every occasion as a perfect opportunity to serve His Kingdom.
We as individual believers should be looking for such opportunities. Who do you know who needs Christ?
4. The muscles that help focus your eyes moved about 100,000 times.
Those facts truly are amazing! There are so many more. The nerves that send signals to our brains that tell us whether we need to put on a sweater, or take it off. The sensation that lets us know we are thirsty or hungry, and need nourishment. The ability to think through a problem and reason it out. And the body's ability to take food and convert it into energy necessary for survival. That's just the beginning.
The Bible has been saying that all along. Psalm 139:14 reads, "I praise you because I am fearfully and wonderfully made; your works are wonderful, I know that full well." The word "fearfully" means "to stand in awe," and the word translated "wonderfully made" refers to something being separated from everything else, to be unique and distinct.
Stop long enough today to consider the masterpiece that you are, and be in awe. Other creatures in our world are amazing in their own ways, but the human body is truly unique and distinct from all others. You may not be happy with your size, age or shape, but when the Bible talks about us being "fearfully and wonderfully made" there is no distinction made about what we look like. We are indeed amazing creatures—yet another reason why we should stop and worship our great God!
Bil Keane's "Family Circus" comic strip one Sunday many years ago was one big picture, showing a yard filled with children at play. They were blowing trumpets, honking horns, shouting, playing ball, swinging, flying kites, climbing trees, running, crying, etc. In addition, a dog was barking, a bird was singing, and a jet was flying overhead.
Through a cutaway, one can see inside the house, where the mother says to her husband, "Listen! That's PJ crying!" And sure enough, PJ is standing in the middle of the yard crying because one of the other children has taken his teddy bear.
A mother's ears are attuned to the sounds of her children, because she is sensitive to their needs. Are our ears attuned to the cries of the people around us? Are we sensitive to their need for Christ? The most effective evangelism is done by those who care enough to LISTEN.
Let us be a church that listens!


With Design-A-Flange we are introducing a brand new flange concept for sealing cables, with an unparalleled level of protection and flexibility. Design-A-Flange is very compact in its design and very easy to install. Just slide the inserts together, place them in the frame and install. The inserts lock on to each other as well as to the frame, ensuring a safe and secure installation.
Fiberglass re-inforced Polypropylene is used for the frame and the inserts, ensuring a very rigid structure. The soft TPE lets us incorporate push-out membrane seals with exceptional sealing properties. The two materials together make it possible to have a flange system with a very slim design.
Design-A-Flange is a very versatile flange system with sealing inserts that can be changed depending on your needs. You are no longer forced to use fixed flanges with a certain number of predetermined openings. You can now decide for yourself what size openings and how many you want in your flange.
You are also free to choose what level of protection you want to have. You choose the inserts that suits your needs!
All our Design-A-Flange inserts are equipped with our famous push-out membranes. No tools are needed to install the cables.
Just push the cables through the membrane of the seal and the installation is complete. Since you always will have a round opening, you are guaranteed to have IP65. You do not need to worry about cutting the right size opening to match the diameter of the cable, or that you made the opening uneven and therefore endangered the IP-classification.
With Design-A-Flange you can either choose a pre-configured solution or you can design your own. You can choose what size openings, how many and where they should be placed in the frame – allowing for a completely tailor made cable sealing plate.
You are no longer forced to use a flange where someone else has decided what size openings, how many, and where they are placed. A pre-determined solution where you often end up having quite a few openings unused is now a thing of the past.
With Design-A-Flange you have the freedom to decide where the inserts are placed, and where the different size openings should be in the frame. You are then able to get a sealing solution that is easier to install, and a very clean uncluttered cable installation.
Our cable entry plate is made to have very low protrusion and will take up very little space. This allows for very discrete and aesthetic installations. You can even have cable anchorage on your cables by using our KLIKSEAL and you will still have an installation that takes up a minimum of space.
A common issue with today's flanges is that either the IP-rating decreases as soon as a cable is installed, or you cannot get a protection level of at least IP65. With Design-A-Flange you can now have a flange system that is rated IP65, with or without cables installed. For the first time ever you have a flange that provides exceptionally high IP-protection and flexibility.
You can choose if you want to have a system that is suitable for today's needs, or one that allows flexibility for the future. Should you want to change your system configuration later on, this is not a problem - the only thing you need to do is change inserts.

Greenwich softball team tops Wilton for third straight win
David Fierro
May 3, 2019 Updated: May 3, 2019 10:04 p.m.
Greenwich senior Sophia Prieto pitched a complete game and helped lead the Cardinals at the plate in their 12-2 win over Wilton on Friday in Greenwich.
David Fierro / Hearst Connecticut Media
Greenwich wasted little time in setting the tone of Friday's softball game against visiting Wilton.
A five-run first inning set the Cardinals up nicely for a successful Senior Day.
Following a tough stretch in which it lost several one-run games, Greenwich posted its third straight win, beating Wilton, 12-2, in an FCIAC game.
"Everybody hit well today," GHS coach Mary Beth Fratello said. "It was a complete-team effort."
Sophia Prieto, one of seven seniors on the squad, earned the win on the mound for the Cardinals. Sophomore catcher Olivia McClammy hit her 12th home run of the season and drove in two runs, while senior shortstop Emma Beinstein went 3 for 3 with two runs scored and two RBI to help pace Greenwich offensively.
"Olivia is having an outstanding season, but it's not just the home runs," Fratello said. "When she hits the ball, she hits it so hard. I am really impressed with how she has been hitting."
Prieto added two hits and two RBI go along with her strong pitching performance.
"She was moving the ball around, holding them to two runs and our defense played great today," Fratello said. "We had those three one run losses, so it was tough. But now we are trying to get back on track. It was nice to see us come back with three wins in a row."
Senior Kelly Brogan (third base) had a triple and a run scored, senior outfielder Katie Walko tripled and had two RBIs and senior outfielder Charli Faugno had one hit, one RBI and a run scored in the winning effort.
Julie Gambino, a senior outfielder, scored two runs, while senior Michelle Morganti doubled and had two RBIs for Greenwich (9-7). Junior Violet Mikalopas had an RBI and a single in the win.
"We came out with the same intensity as we did the last time we played them (a win)," Gambino said. "Our next goal is making FCIACs, we have to be one of the top eight seeds, so it would be pretty awesome if we get getting wins and make it."
Said Prieto: "We did a good job of hitting today, we made some adjustments at the plate and did a good job. This is the best team since I've been here and I have a lot of confidence on the mound with the team behind me."
Hannah Belanger had an RBI single and Hannah Lifrieri had two hits and a run scored for Wilton. Juliana Musilli also drove in a run for the Warriors.
Seven seniors were honored on the Cardinals' Senior Day. GHS scored five runs in the first inning, one in the third inning and five in the fourth.
