    It's "libel", the prefix being "lib-" from the Latin "liber" for book. Hope that helps.

    According to several people she has been talking to this position is NOT something she's interested (too much paperwork, too little fun).

    It will be really interesting to see how many candidates will submit their names and who will be chosen in the end. I agree that time is ripe for some fundamental change in this area.

    I'd sure like to know who you've been speaking too. Unless of course there is some other more fun job she is gunning for.

    Well there's religion, and then there's food. Priorities, as they say.

    This can't mean we're all not as funny as we think we are. Can it?

    Now I get it. Andrea is the Interim Director of High Performance. Her permanent position (as per Brad Baker) is the "Director of Sports Performance."

    Anyone know what the "Director of Sports Performance" does, and how that got to be Andrea's "permanent position?"
