RALEIGH — The city of Raleigh has again begun picking up containers of unwanted cooking oil and grease from the curb outside homes or places of worship.
Put the grease in a clear plastic container marked used cooking oil, call the citys Solid Waste Services Department at 919-996-6980 and leave the container at the curb. Piedmont Biofuels of Pittsboro will convert the oil and grease into biofuels.
Raleigh has collected oil and grease at the curb during the holiday season for five years and usually gets between 600 and 900 gallons a year. The city runs the program only during the holidays, when people are doing more home cooking than usual. This pickup season will last from now through Jan. 15.
Though it costs the city money, the program is the right thing to do, said Marti Gibson, environmental coordinator for wastewater. Oil and grease can clog sewer pipes, and for years the city has been urging residents not to pour them down the drain.
If were asking people not to flush it, we need to give them a place to put it, Gibson said.
The grease campaign has reduced the number of sewer clogs from oil and grease, Gibson said, but they still occur. Last month, more than 21,500 gallons of sewage spilled into Richland Creek in West Raleigh after an 8-inch PVC pipe became clogged with grease and paper, according to the city.
Cary also collects cooking oil and grease at the curb. Residents can schedule pickup by calling the town at 919-469-4090.

Eight Sedgwick County residents with concealed-carry permits have been charged with felonies while using a firearm since the state first began issuing those licenses more than five years ago, according to the Kansas Attorney General's Office.
Three of those have had their licenses revoked permanently, while three others have their permits suspended pending outcome of their cases. Two have pleaded guilty to misdemeanor charges, allowing their licenses to be reinstated.
Statewide, there have been 44 permit holders charged with felonies while using a firearm. Most of those didn't fire their weapons. Many of the cases are rooted in a domestic issue.
Information on the following cases from around the state was obtained from district attorneys, county attorneys, court clerks and the attorney general's office:
• Brian E. Badders. Pleaded guilty to aggravated assault with a firearm in Miami County on Jan. 27, 2011. In a road-rage case in 2010, Badders fired a shot in the air. Dispute escalated after the other driver said Badders threw a billiard ball and hit his windshield, County Attorney David Miller said. Sentenced to probation. Concealed-carry license revoked permanently.
• Kristina Coppenbarger. Convicted of aggravated assault on a law enforcement officer in Johnson County in April 2011. She was shot by a Kansas Highway Patrol trooper after she pulled a gun. Sentenced to six months in jail. Concealed-carry permit license revoked.
• Jason S. Craig. Convicted on April 15, 2011, in Sedgwick County District Court of aggravated assault while using a handgun during a road-rage incident. Sentenced to probation. Concealed-carry license revoked permanently.
In August 2010, Craig's car was next to a semi-truck at a stoplight. Pickup behind semi over in Craig's lane when light turns green. Pickup driver said Craig was going slow and appeared to be doing something with his cellphone. When pickup passed the semi, the driver switched lanes and pulled alongside Craig. The driver said Craig pointed a handgun at him. "I didn't think I was going to see my kids that night," the pickup driver told police. Pickup driver called police.
Police found Craig with a black handgun and a big knife. He told police he kept his gun in his lap because it poked him if he used a holster while driving. Craig, who had a private investigator license, told police he was tailgated by the pickup, felt threatened and never pointed a gun at anyone.
• John S. Hayworth Jr. Charged with attempted murder in Jefferson County. His license is suspended. A 62-year-old rural Valley Falls resident, Hayworth is accused of shooting William Schoonover with a handgun on Dec. 4, 2011. A mistrial was declared in the case last month after jurors saw improper evidence. The judge set a Jan. 24 court date to reschedule the trial.
• David R. Marsh. Pleaded guilty Sept. 16, 2009, in Sedgwick County District Court to misdemeanor count of domestic battery and felony count of aggravated assault on a law enforcement officer with a handgun. Sentenced to 24 months probation. Concealed-carry license revoked permanently.
About 3 a.m. on Jan. 22, 2009, police responded to a domestic battery call at a west Wichita residence. Marsh was choking a woman, dragging her by her hair. After police knocked on the door, he came outside. Police saw a handgun in his back waistband. Marsh refused police orders to get out on the ground; police said they saw him reach for his gun, so police used a Taser to subdue him. Police found a handgun in his possession.
• Jesse J. Segovia. Charged in two cases in Sedgwick County District Court. One is for a DUI on Feb. 4. 2011. The other is a felony charge for firing a rifle on Nov. 3, 2011, into an occupied residence on South Palisade in Wichita. License has been suspended.
On the DUI charge, police say they found a gun in his possession. A concealed-carry license can be revoked when the permit-holder is carrying under the influence, according to the attorney general's office. The charge is set for a bench trial Nov. 27.
On the felony charge, police allege Segovia fired a rifle into the home from outside after a domestic struggle with his girlfriend. Bench trial set for Dec. 5.
• Joseph A. Winkler. Pleaded guilty in February 2009 in Sedgwick County District Court to two counts of aggravated assault with a handgun. Sentenced to 24 months probation. Concealed-carry license revoked permanently.
Probation revoked during hearing June 2010 because he tested positive for amphetamines, failed to pay court costs and didn't do required community service. Judge added 12 more months of probation. Probation was revoked after he was arrested on DUI charge in February 2011. Sentenced to 11 months less time served – leaving him to spend about four more months in prison.
On Oct. 1, 2008, Winkler threatened his soon-to-be ex-wife with a gun about closing time at a bar they owned on South Exposition. She said he pointed a handgun at her and said, 'Don't make me blow this up,' " according to a witness. He said he retrieved his handgun as he always does at closing time and was carrying it in a holster.
Winkler left with his girlfriend, who worked at the bar, and they got into an argument on the way home. At home, the girlfriend said Winkler grabbed her by the throat and pointed a gun at her neck. He threatened to kill her as he chased her across the yard. The soon-to-be ex-wife had already called police and told them they would find Winkler at his home. Police arrested him and seized the handgun.

VLS to Launch Inaugural Top 10 Environmental Watch List
November 22, 2010
SOUTH ROYALTON, VT -- Vermont Law School will release its inaugural Top 10 Environmental Watch List on Jan. 3, 2011, to spotlight the most critical environmental law and policy issues of 2010 and how they may play out in 2011.
Produced by the nation's top-ranked environmental law school, the Watch List will evaluate judicial, regulatory, legislative and other actions from 2010, a major year for environmental news. More than a compilation of the year's top stories, the Watch List will be a predictive, analytical look forward intended to help the media in reporting further on the causes, consequences and solutions to environmental challenges that significantly affect human beings and the natural world.
The Watch List, which will be published online, was selected by VLS Environmental Law Center faculty with assistance from student staffers at the school's Vermont Journal of Environmental Law, who together researched more than 75 issues before deciding on the Top 10. In a series of concise briefs, the Watch List will provide scholarly insight and common-sense analysis intended to promote public understanding of the critical environmental issues of our time.

United Way of the Wabash Valley and Terre Haute Chevrolet are partnering for a third annual campaign incentive giveaway.
A five-speed 2013 Chevy Spark 1LS valued at $12,995 was donated to United Way to raise revenue toward its fundraising.
To enter to win the car, people must donate $25 of new money to United Way, said Troy Fears, executive director of United Way of the Wabash Valley. New money means the amount donated is an increase of $25 from any past amount donated.
"If someone donated $125 to United Way last year, then to be eligible for the car, they would need to donate $150 to enter a ballot," Fears said.
Every $25 amount added to the initial amount donated will result in another ballot submission.
Four people's names will be randomly drawn in late January and will be invited to a final ceremony in February 2014, to determine the winner.
"The four individuals will come in and grab keys out of a hat," Fears said. "One of those keys will start the car, and the other three contestants will get a free oil change."
United Way and Terre Haute Chevrolet have a growing relationship and will continue to do incentive promotions in years to come, said Bill Lutes, vice president and general manager of Terre Haute Chevrolet.
"United Way is a fantastic entity," Lutes said. "They are very giving and supportive of the community."
Fears agrees.
"We have a great partnership and we couldn't thank them enough for donating the car," Fears added.
Last year, United Way and Terre Haute Chevrolet gave away a 2012 Chevy Sonic LS with 3,015 total entries and 926 individuals eligible for the car. A total of $150,750 was raised from the 3,015 entries for the United Way campaign. Since last year's campaign, the amount for a ballot has lowered from $50 a submission to $25.
The contest officially ends at 5 p.m. on Jan. 17, 2014. Participants must be legal residents of Indiana or Illinois and 18 years of age with a valid driver's license.
To donate, visit www.uwwv.org and hit the "donate now" button. For more information call the United Way office at 812-235-6287.

Shaley Cates said the idea behind Merrimac and North, a unique addition to Mineral Wells' downtown area, came from the combination of two passions.
Cates, who has been a professional hairstylist for five years, continues her career with a full-service salon, though she said a longtime hobby incorporated into the business is bringing in the most customer traffic.
The name of the shop comes from the location of her great-grandparents' home in Weatheford.
"That is where I got into picking and antiquing," Cates said.
Bringing that personal history into Merrimac and North, she offers antiques and furniture for sale and takes orders for restoration projects.
She said the recent popularity of television shows such as "Picker Sisters" and "American Pickers" have created a surge of people interested in repurposed antiques.
"This is kind of the hot time for this," she said, explaining Pinterest and other websites prominently feature old items renovated to serve new purposes.
Offering something for nearly all senses, Cates explained a close family friend is also involved in Merrimac and North by heading up a bakery located inside.
Taste and See Bakery, operated by Phyllis Lister, features homemade sweets including fudge, pies and candy.
More information about the business, located at 208 N. Oak Ave., is available online at merrimacandnorth.com.

The Daily Star
---- — No explanation for high gas prices
Gas prices in Otsego county are consistently higher — why?
I was watching the news a week after Hurricane Sandy hit the East Coast, and the Albany station was reporting the downstate traffic traveling up the thruway to get gas. They showed lines of cars at a gas station in Cairo and in the background the advertised price was $3.55 per gallon.
At that time the local price was $3.97 per gallon in this area. I was outraged but figured that the price was dropping, as the national news keeps telling us, so maybe it would drop here in a couple of days.
Here we are three weeks later and the price is still around $4 a gallon depending on what town you're in. Why?
I've heard the "Well, they have to transport it farther" excuse and that makes no sense. If that's the case, then the center of the state should be paying even more, since they have to "transport" it farther.
After visiting gasbuddy.com, I see that the price varies widely, but when there is a 45 cents a gallon difference within 50 miles, something's wrong.

NIAGARA FALLS — A chemical reaction that created a "chlorine cloud" near the swimming pool area prompted the evacuation of students and staff at Gaskill Preparatory School at just after 9 a.m. Monday.
Mayor Paul Dyster confirmed that all students were evacuated from the building and taken to the school's evacuation sites. Students will be dismissed from those locations. Dyster said he was told that two board of education maintenance workers were taken to Niagara Falls Memorial Medical Center as a precaution. He said no student injuries were reported.
UPDATE: By 1 p.m., Falls school district spokesperson Judie Glaser reported that the building had been cleared by firefighters. Glaser said the school building will be open and classes will resume Tuesday morning.
The Niagara Gazette will provide additional information as it is made available and will have additional coverage in Tuesday's edition.

Not all major league baseball players get to be everyday starters, and accepting the role as bench player is something that – no matter how distasteful – has to be learned.
It's particularly hard to come to grips with after first being a starter.
The perfect example is Mariners infielder Brendan Ryan. Since 2009, he has been a starting player. At the start of the 2013 season, Ryan was the Mariners' everyday shortstop, just like he was in 2012 and in 2011.
But that came to an end on June 28, when the Mariners called up prospect Brad Miller and handed him Ryan's job. Ryan was hitting .196 at the time, and Miller was tearing things up at Triple-A Tacoma. Since then, Ryan is learning the life of a backup. It hasn't been easy.
"It's definitely not easy," Ryan said. "I have no reason to lie. But we are all professionals here."
Since Miller was called up, Ryan has started just 10 games and played in a total of 16. After bringing so much daily emotion and passion to the field, it has been hard to sit and watch and hope to play every so often.
"When you are failing quite a bit, it's hard to smile," he said. "Even if you are faking it. You don't want to look frustrated out there."
Games such as Wednesday's 5-3 victory over Oakland don't make it any easier. Ryan went 2-for-4 driving in three runs – including the go-ahead run – while making a few of his usually brilliant defensive plays. It reminds him of what he's capable of doing.
"If I was hitting .280, who knows what would have happened," he said. "We have big league players in this clubhouse. This is the role I've carved out for myself."
It might appear easy to accept the demotion in public, but on the inside it's hard. But Ryan is trying.
"You just have to be a pro," he said. "There's not much more I can say about it. You have to be a professional and take your licks and not look back, just look forward to the next challenge."
For Ryan, it's trying to figure out how to stay ready for when he's called upon for a spot start or for action late in a game. Players have to find a routine that keeps them semi-sharp.
"It took me a while to learn," said outfielder Endy Chavez, who has been a bench player as a fourth outfielder for much of the past five seasons. "You have to find a routine and be ready. But it's still not the same as playing every day."
Ryan is trying to do that, but for him the mental side of it is the most difficult. When you only get a handful of at-bats in a week, it's hard not to place an exaggerated emphasis on the few results – particularly the failures.
"The frustration mounts," Ryan said. "It gets exponential when at-bats are limited. You have so much time to sit and think about it. What you would have done different. What went wrong.
"All I can do is the best I can with the opportunities I'm getting."
Those opportunities will be limited. Yet, Ryan isn't pouting or being a problem in the clubhouse. Before games, he can be seen giving Miller fielding tips and working with him daily on ground-ball fundamentals. He lost his job, but he hasn't lost his concept of helping the team.
"He's been more than a pro," acting manager Robby Thompson said. "He's done nothing but help those guys up the middle, whether it's pregame, during the game or postgame. He's been there for them. He's solid about that."
It's what Ryan believes he should be doing as a veteran player. It's part of his new role. He doesn't like riding the bench, but it's far better than the alternative – not playing baseball at all.
"As cheesy as it may be, I'm still in the big leagues and living the dream," he said.

Staff-recommended viewing from the KPL catalog.
I still remember the feeling. I was living in Washington, D.C. It was my first time living in the big city as an adult. I missed the woods, the countryside, the quiet calm of my hometown in the Midwest. That D.C. summer was so hot. When you stepped outside, you felt like you were instantly encased in Saran Wrap, so cloying was the humidity. My roommates and I didn't have air conditioning, so we sought relief at the movies.
I lost myself for two hours, watching a group of boys frolic through the woods, narrowly escape a speeding train and a vicious dog, discover another boy's body. I could feel the cool of the green forest and the pull of childhood summers. When we left the movie theater, I was shocked by the brightness and the return of the feel of Saran Wrap. I was so immersed in Stand by Me that, at first, I didn't remember where I was!
Great movies can do that to you.
With Memorial Day around the corner, here are some movies, set in summer (or at least a good chunk of it,) to help you celebrate the season's 'unofficial' start:

The Eagle-Tribune
---- — I just got an email from former governor Bill Weld, endorsing Gabriel Gomez for U.S. Senate.
"As a son of immigrants, a Navy SEAL and a successful businessman, Gabriel has a unique set of experiences and skills that will bring an outsider's perspective to Washington D.C. …
"We need a fiscal conservative who is talking about solutions for getting our economy back on track and moving the country forward. This primary has three excellent candidates, but Gabriel's common-sense ideas and remarkable leadership make him the obvious choice for those that believe deeply in the need for a big tent Republican Party."
Hi, Bill, how are ya? Nice endorsement. Now if only I could get the image out of my head of you standing under a "Republicans for Obama" banner in New Hampshire, endorsing Barack in 2008. Although you were a fine governor, forgive me for not trusting your judgment about national-race candidates.
I've endorsed Dan Winslow for some of the same reasons: fiscal conservative, believes deeply in the need for a big-tent Republican Party. I admire Mr. Gomez' resume and will support him if he wins the primary, but I wish I'd had a chance to get to know him before being asked to vote for him for the vital position of U.S. senator in this critical election. When you mention his "solutions for getting the economy back on track", I don't know what they are. I've only heard his campaign mantra: "Term limits, balanced budget amendment, line-item veto." I support these too, but since they require constitutional amendments they aren't going to get the economy back on track until long after I'm dead, so I need more timely solutions.
He calls himself "an outsider", perhaps to the point of having little idea of how the "inside" works?
Gomez attacks both Winslow and Michael Sullivan for being "professional politicians." Maybe at some point in voter history I'd have seen that as a negative, but right now, in this time of crisis, it sounds better than "amateur politician." Do we want a professional or amateur fiscal conservative addressing the nation's great problems?
Both Dan and Michael are poster-boys for the way term limits is intended to work: They both served in one government position, then moved on to another, then another, accumulating valuable experience while not getting complacent in a permanent job.
Dan Winslow did have a permanent job as a district court judge, yet left it to become Gov. Mitt Romney's chief legal counsel where he worked on actual balanced budgets. Then he ran for office himself: not starting at the top, but becoming a state representative when his state rep moved up to fill Scott Brown's Massachusetts state Senate position. His priorities, according to the Massachusetts Political Almanac, have been "jobs and the state economy, cutting taxes and wasteful spending while preserving core local services", as well as "integrity and ethics in state government."
He calls me with original ideas, like allowing taxpayers to apply their sales taxes to a reduction in their property taxes – an improvement over Deval Patrick's 2006 campaign "property tax reduction" for which we are still awaiting details.
I even liked his proposal for one new tax – on the $20 million left over in state politicians' campaign funds after an election, which isn't considered taxable income as they carry it forward to their next campaign. An added benefit is that it would remove some of the advantage incumbents have over challengers from their own or the other party.
Granted, these ideas aren't becoming law either, because they're being made within an overwhelmingly one-party legislature. In Washington, an idea person could have a real impact as the situation becomes more desperate.
Michael Sullivan was also a state legislator, before moving on to district attorney, U.S. attorney, and head of the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms. Both he and Dan Winslow had 100 percent ratings with Citizens for Limited Taxation, both can be counted on to support fiscal responsibility in the U.S. Senate. I endorsed Dan as soon as he jumped into the race for the Senate seat when John Kerry was appointed secretary of state. I was hoping he'd be the only Republican candidate so he could focus on raising money and campaigning for a tough race against Congressman Ed Markey, who's a poster boy for why term limits is needed, having stayed in that same safe spot for 36 years.
But alas, Republicans didn't pull together even in a short time-frame election against a Democrat with a huge war chest, so two more candidates jumped in: Gomez, from out of nowhere, supported by party regulars whom I'd have expected to support Dan because there was no reason not to, and Sullivan, who was urged by social conservatives to run so they wouldn't have to support a social moderate who might actually win. Given a choice among fiscal conservatives, I'll go with the most knowledgeable one with whom I agree on choice and gay marriage. I hope other independents, who can vote in the Republican primary next Tuesday, will also vote for Dan Winslow for U.S. Senate.

---- — MALONE — Alex Johnson's two-run homer ignited a six-run fifth inning as Malone Post #219 rallied for an 8-4 victory over the Adams Glass Senior Babe Ruth team on Thursday at the Airport Field.
Adams Glass (0-3) scored single runs in the first and third innings for a 2-0 lead.
Malone (2-0), however, got one run back in the fourth and then broke loose for six in the fifth for a 7-2 advantage.
In addition to Johnson's home run, Brandon Welch, Blayke Lewis, Zach Burnett and Austin Lamay rapped singles in the inning, with Lamay's hit driving in two runs. Welch finished with two hits.
Burnett, the second of three Malone pitchers, picked up the victory. Starter Jared Moody, Burnett and Lamay combined to allow three hits.
Alden Kerr, the second of three Adams Glass pitchers, took the loss. Luis Pepen-Matos did not allow a hit over the first four-plus innings and struck out seven. He walked six, however.
"Pepen-Matos pitched well, but his pitch count was high and we set a number before the game because he hadn't pitched in a while," Adams Glass coach John Demarais said. "With our league games starting next week, this gave us a chance to look at other pitchers. Kerr and (Jacob) Kennedy both threw strikes, and that's what we wanted.
"We're not hitting the ball as well as we can. I was pleased with the way we manufactured runs with our hustle and never-give-up attitude. We will battle until the last out."
Kevin Sousa, Kyle Sprague and Ethan King had the hits for Adams Glass.

Comments about GAMO USA Blue Flame .177 Cal Pellets:
Saw these "high end" pellets and thought they would be more aerodynamic that my usual crossman match-point pellets.
Accuracy was horrible. I started at 25 yards and never even tried further away. I had groups of about 3 inches (not counting the flyers). One out of five shots was a flyer and was at least 6-12" off!!! Some never hit the backstop. This is unacceptable ( and yes i was bench shooting).
May work better in a Gamo rifle. In the crossman these fit tighter than any other ammo i have ever used. This may be the problem.
I went back to Crossman match-points and i have groups under an inch at 25 yards and they have more knock down power than any other pellet. They are a lot cheaper too.

TRAVERSE CITY — It wasn't an emergency that rang Grand Traverse County's 911 phone lines off the hook.
Instead, a technical snafu caused "ghost" 911 calls to continuously ring the county's dispatch center for several hours Wednesday evening, forcing dispatchers to switch emergency lines over to Leelanau County while the issue was fixed.
"It was literally nonstop," said Grand Traverse County 911 Director Jamel Anderson.
The problem began about 5:30 p.m. when an IT worker performed routine maintenance on the county's main phone switch. Anderson said the work only should have affected the dispatch center's non-emergency phone lines — which are separate from 911 technology -- but "things went kind of crazy" after a test call.
Dispatchers received a flood of so-called "ghost" 911 calls with no true callers. Anderson said there were no reports of real emergency calls lost in the chaos because dispatchers continued answering each ring.
Grand Traverse County and Leelanau County's dispatch centers recently agreed to serve as each other's backup during 911 system problems, but officials briefly feared Wednesday's SNAFU would spread between dispatch centers.
"We didn't want them to get all these ghost calls," Anderson said. "We flipped a switch and the ghost calls stayed with us."
Tom Skowronski, emergency management director for Leelanau County, said the switch over process was "seamless."
"It worked as designed and practiced," he said.
Grand Traverse County technology and AT&T workers sorted out the problem by about 8:30 p.m. Anderson said the problem came down to a bad "comm card" and a replacement was found in the county's old law enforcement center.
Information about Grand Traverse County 911 and alerts about emergencies can be found on the dispatch center's Facebook page.

LAUREL COUNTY, Ky. —
BARBOURVILLE—A season-high 59 points by North Laurel wasn't enough against the running and gunning Barbourville Lady Tigers. Barbourville also scored its season high in the 74-59 win.
"We haven't worked a whole lot on defense because that wasn't a part of the game we've been struggling with," North Laurel coach Eddie Mahan said. "But 60 points in three quarters is way too much."
Barbourville wasn't scoring against the North Laurel defense as much as they were scoring ahead of it. Much of the Barbourville scoring came on run outs with speedy guards Brianna Tate and K.K. Liford winning a foot race to the goal.
"They have two girls that can absolutely handle the ball and two girls inside that like to score. You have that kind of mix you can have a pretty good team," Mahan said.
Barbourville now boasts a 12-3 record with their losses to Corbin, Somerset, and Harlan County. They have also swept two games against Laurel County teams. The Lady Tigers edged South Laurel in overtime. They have also broken into WYMT's Mountain Top 10.
Most of the Lady Tigers margin of victory Friday came in the first quarter when they opened a 13-point lead. Much of the damage was done by North Laurel turnovers. The Lady Jaguars turned the ball over three times before they got off their first shot.
Mahan did think favorably matchups helped the Lady Jaguars some with the press. There were still more than 20 turnovers on the night.
"They were still mostly unforced," Mahan said. "If we could just stick with the ones that are part of basketball, those forced turnovers, we would be much better off."
North Laurel played even in the second quarter, but saw the Barbourville lead reach 25 points in the third quarter with a 13-0 run. The Lady Tigers run started when Makayla Sexton went to the bench with foul trouble. She had scored the first six points of the half for North Laurel and gave the Lady Jaguars a strong presence on the boards.
"One thing about her is she is going to clear out space. If she doesn't get the rebound, she's going to clear out the space where Kendall (Ellington) or Ashley Wyatt can crash and get the board," Mahan said.
With Sexton out, the Lady Tigers were scoring quickly off North Laurel misses and transition lay-ups. Mahan said many of the 22 Barbourville defensive rebounds turned into points. Sometimes they would just turn and hurl the ball to their end and let the guards run to the ball.
"I said they probably took 10 or 11 of those (rebounds) the other direction for two points. That's 22 points right there in transition," Mahan said.
Ellington came off the bench to lead North Laurel with 12 points. Ellington moved to a reserve roll while recovering from injuries. For now, Mahan said he will stick with that rotation.
"She came in and did well for us. Maybe that's the spark we need off the bench," Mahan said.
Wyatt scored a dozen. Hannah Lawson and Brooke Carpenter scored 10 each.
"It was nice to see them being a little more aggressive. We've just got to learn to play smart basketball and more confident basketball," Mahan said.
North Laurel was scheduled to host Knox Central Saturday and will travel to Somerset tonight.
Barbourville 74, North Laurel 59
North Laurel 10 16 16 17—59

Like a few other cultures in the world, modern China comes with thousands of years of tradition behind it. As with those others, it sometimes struggles to find a way to make that tradition and history mesh well with modern life (most often by simply jettisoning the former). However, every once in a while, you'll see an example of how the Chinese will take a tradition and … get a little carried away with it. The results are as breathtakingly brilliant as they are horrifying.
The first example I came across was in late 2006, early 2007, when I read about the practice of minghun, or ghost marriages. Essentially, having an unmarried son in traditional China is bad enough — having him die without being married is nearly unbearable for some, so they endeavour to find him a bride. Various members of the clergy will offer to help the family find a family recently bereaved of a daughter whose horoscope is compatible with that of their son, and then arrange to have the couple 'married' and then buried together, so that they may enjoy a happy (and apparently quite frisky, according to academic Ping Yao) afterlife together. In some cases, the family of the male will compensate the family of the female for the hassle.
And that's where the entrepreneurial spirit of the Chinese comes in and things start to get carried away. Normally, families will rely on networks of friends and relatives to find these deceased single women to marry to their deceased sons. But in some cases, there are none to be found, or those found are too long dead to be appropriate for the deceased son. Suddenly there appears a market for brokers who will help expand the search and find an appropriate bride, for a fee of course.
Now, in order to earn that fee, sometimes brokers will start bending the rules. For those cases where they truly cannot find an appropriate corpse, some will find themselves resorting to grave robbing. Knowing that a newer corpse will do better than an older corpse, some will stake out funerals, wait until the evening, and then nip the fresher corpse in return for a higher fee.
Which leads some extreme people to just start murdering women to get the freshest corpse possible and the highest price. Sure, they'll target prostitutes, the mentally handicapped, the infirm, and other easy targets at first, but even those will get hard to come by and it's only a matter of time before they're arrested after abducting somebody off a city street at night.
I more or less forgot about this over the years, however, and it was only recently that I came across another example that made me put it all together and brought back memories of the ghost marriages. The second incidence came from a news report about arrests at a funeral.
Again, centering around burial traditions, it was noted that many people in poorer parts of the country believe that the larger the send-off you give somebody into the afterlife, the more the deceased is honoured. Families will thus try to ensure that as large of a crowd as possible will attend the funeral.
When mere appeals to people's decency or sentiments doesn't work, you start bribing people to show up, perhaps with free booze and food, or by making important people attend the proceedings.
But when even that fails, once again, the enterprising business mind comes to the rescue: why not hire strippers to perform at the funeral. It's never hard to find farmers who are willing to hang out somewhere for a few hours when there are hot naked women to be had.
This, in fact, led to the formation of funeral stripper troupes, and subsequently government "funeral misdeed" hotlines. Thus, the arrests in Jiangsu province (interestingly enough, also in 2006, although the news has just come around again) of five people involved in organising these funeral strippers.
Now, before you decide to berate me for looking down on the Chinese or otherwise laughing at their silly traditions and beliefs, please note that my intention is exactly the opposite — to show how the magical combination of a massive population (1.4 billion and counting), thousands of years of history, and a mercantilist / entrepreneurial spirit I have not seen elsewhere in the world can, on extremely rare occasions, come together to produce brilliantly bizarre results. You can say a lot about China, but you can never, ever say it's boring.

Hagel, Yoder Lead Valpo Past Grace
Recap | Boxscore
Grace (12-17)
Valparaiso (11-19)
4/9/2012 | Valparaiso, Ind. | Attendance: 88
Related Links
Monday, April 09, 2012
Will Hagel (Arlington Heights, Ill./Prospect H.S.) and Grant Yoder (Fort Wayne, Ind./Snider H.S.) combined for nine runs batted in on Monday afternoon, helping lead Valparaiso to a 12-5 victory over Grace at Emory G. Bauer Field.
Hagel had a two-run single in the opening inning and added a bases loaded triple to straight away center field in the fifth on his way to a five-RBI day. Yoder brought home two runs in the first with a single, blasted a solo home run, the first of his collegiate career, in the sixth, and plated another run on a fielder's choice in the eighth.
Valpo struck first with four runs in the opening inning, taking advantage of two walks and a hit batsman. Hagel and Yoder delivered the key hits. The Crusaders added two more runs in the second inning, one on a bases loaded walk by John Loeffler (Burnsville, Minn./Burnsville H.S.) and another on a fielder's choice off of the bat of Chris Manning (Lake Forest, Calif./El Toro H.S.).
"We did a good job early of taking advantage of a couple of their mistakes and the walks," head coach Tracy Woodson said after the game.
Grace (12-17) cut the Valpo lead to 6-5 in the fifth, batting around in the inning. Six hits, five singles and a RBI triple by Derek Zwier, pulled the Lancers within a run.
"They swung the bats well," Woodson added of the Lancers' 12-hit attack. "We allowed them to stay in the game which is something we just can't do. These are tough games to stay focused on."
Valpo answered with three in the bottom of the inning on the bases clearing triple by Hagel and added another run in the sixth on Yoder's round-tripper. The Crusaders added their final two runs in the eighth on the Yoder fielder's choice and a sacrifice fly off of the bat of Steven Scoby (Delton, Mich./Delton Kellogg H.S.).
Tanner Vavra (Menomonie, Wis./Menomonie H.S.) paced Valpo's 11-hit attack with a 3-for-4 game, scoring three times, while Yoder and Hagel each had two hits. Andrew Bain (Indianapolis, Ind./Park Tudor H.S.) scored three runs for the Brown and Gold.
Ryan Kennedy (Gurnee, Ill./Warren H.S.) earned his first collegiate victory (1-0) for the Crusaders, working 3.2 innings of scoreless relief. He scattered two hits, walked one, and struck out three. Starter Tyler Weber took the loss (0-1) for Grace, allowing six runs on six hits in three innings of work.
Valparaiso (11-19), winners of three of its last four, will conclude its brief two-game homestand on Tuesday afternoon, hosting Western Michigan. First pitch is slated for 3 p.m. at Emory G. Bauer Field.

USC and UCLA may be rivals on the football field, but they came together for a very important cause last week - the Armenian Genocide collection.
A series of Croatian-language Holocaust lessons commissioned in 2006 by the Croatian Ministry of Science, Education and Sports is now available on USC Shoah Foundation's website. The lessons draw on testimony to teach various aspects of the Holocaust in Croatia.
Students may still be enjoying their summer vacation, but the new school year is just around the corner. USC Shoah Foundation has prepared a convenient one-stop-shop of all its educational resources to help educators plan to teach with testimony this year.
In the Spring 2014 issue of PastForward, USC screenwriting professor Ted Braun discusses Joshua Oppenheimer's The Act of Killing and what it brings to our understanding of violence.
The second IWitness educator workshop in Rwanda will be held next week, and will incorporate new elements to provide an experience unique from the first workshop last November.
Harry Reicher, USC Shoah Foundation's first-ever Rutman Teaching Fellow, wrapped up his four-day fellowship today with a talk that revealed how exceptionally valuable the Visual History Archive will become to his teaching.
The number of people who watched testimony in the 2013-14 fiscal year more than doubled from last year, USC Shoah Foundation's year-end statistics reveal. And that's just one of many impressive numbers that show how USC Shoah Foundation continues to grow its influence around the world.
Young people working to promote peace in Rwanda as part of the Aegis Trust Youth Champion program are turning to IWitness to aid in their projects.
Development took a major step forward this month for New Dimensions in Testimony, the three-dimensional, fully interactive display of Holocaust survivors created by USC's Institute for Creative Technologies and Conscience Display. Audiences had the chance to interact with the pilot for the first time.
Some of the brightest college students in applied mathematics are working with the USC Shoah Foundation this summer for the annual Research in Industrial Projects (RIPS) program at the UCLA Institute for Pure and Applied Mathematics (IPAM).
The University of Michigan- Flint held its second annual Workshop on Teaching and Working with Survivor Testimonies this week, which included exploration of Rwandan and Holocaust survivor testimonies.

iWork app updates arrive on the Mac App Store
Numbers, Keynote, and Pages better known as the iWork suite, have all now been updated in the Mac App Store for those of you out there who have been patiently waiting since the iPad & Mac event.
Existing owners of the Mac App Store versions are able to directly update to the latest versions while new users will now be able to purchase the each app for $19.99.
If a new mac purchase is something you have planned though, no need to purchase these right now. As announced previously, the iWork suite will be available as a free download when purchasing a new Mac.
There are 16 comments. Add yours.
iLife apps as well. Important note. My 2008 iMac does not get the new iMovie. Graphics card isn't recent enough.
GarageBand appears to be a new app, not an update (ass all the iWork and iPhoto and iMovie are). Must be how they get around the "removal" of features paid for before.
All also updating on iOS as we speak.
Sent from the iMore App
I just can't believe that a sociology major would be rocking a five year old Mac.
Sent from the iMore App
Be nice if they dropped the prices on 'em… the Mac ones are $19.99 each…
I first bought iWork & iLife when the only way you could get them was on a DVD... fired up the Mac AppStore this morning - guess what was available as updates? The the iWork and iLife Apps... Way to go Apple. :)
Quick question: I JUST finished updating my iPhoto and iMovie on my MBP, but it looks like the old apps are still on my computer except they no longer work. How do I go about removing them?
Thanks in advance.
I updated to maverick's but I am not showing any updates available for my iLife or iWork apps on my MBP. My iLife '11 and iWork '09 apps where purchased on CD, not through the App Store. Am I unable to upgrade because of that? iPhoto is completely broken, when I try and open it it says it is not comparable with this version of OSX and sends me to updates but there is no update available to download and install. It would be a bummer to have to pay full price for all these apps when I already paid for them.
I am also using the 2009 versions, which were purchased on disc. I was expecting to have to ingrate to the Mac App Store version when they were available.
Same here, the Mac App Store always had the updates to these when available, but when I looked up the new versions they are regularly priced, except Garageband, that is listed as Free.
@galley Im running all 2009 versions and 10.6.8 and right now the only one thats free is garage band, Question to all Do I have to update to mavericks to get them all free? Thank you
I don't mind paying the price for the Mac apps but wish it was a package deal for my ios devices too instead of having to buy each separate. My wife is still hooked on Microsoft Word and Excel got to move her over.
Sent from the iMore App
I have a 2011 MacBook Pro that I received iWorks on CD (and that I updated to mavericks earlier today). Earlier today when iWorks was released for free (the updated version), each was showing up as $19.95 for me on the Mac App Store. However later when I checked again (about 30 minutes ago) they were being displayed as 'update' (with no price) and sure enough, I was able to update Pages, Keynotes and Numbers for 'free'. Not sure why it took so long.
On my wife's new MacBook Air (just purchased in August of this year) all 3 apps on the Mac App Store still show up as $19.95 each. I updated her MBA to Mavericks earlier as well. Not sure why she's not able to get them for free as well at this time.
I have iWorks on CD too, but the apps still show up as 19.95$.
I tried to click on pages, planning to cancel the buy when it requires the password and it made me buy it without asking for the password -.- (in my account they charged the full price)
Found this fix on another sit, it worked for me:
1. Create a new user account, standard type call it test or something....you will delete it when you are done
2. Log out of your account and log in to the new one you just created.
3. Open the App Store and log in to your app account.
4. Go to your purchases and you should see the iLife and/or iWork apps available to update.
5. Update the apps and log out of the test account.
6. Log in to our account.
7. The dock should have your new iLife app icons, but will have the old iWork icons that will launch the old apps so delete the icons from the dock.
8. Drag the new iWork icons from the finder apps folder to your dock.
9. You should be good to go, just need to delete the test user log in and delete your old iLife and/or iWork apps.
Didn't work for me
Not sure what to say other than it worked on my MBP. I tried to included a link to an article on macrumours, but the system wouldn't accept the post thinking I was trying to post spam. In the article others have described a myriad of ways that have worked for them, maybe one of them will work for.

Fernando Sosa had no doubt his sword-covered iPhone dock inspired by the hit TV series "Game of Thrones" would become a top seller for his small manufacturing startup. Then he heard from HBO.
Defending a copyright on electronics featuring its show, HBO in February demanded Sosa halt sales on his website. He did, and gave refunds for $49.99 to more than a dozen customers.
Sosa is among the swelling ranks of designers facing legal challenges for using consumer versions of 3-D printers once found only in factories.
"It's going to be a problem for the future," said Sosa, co-owner of Nuproto in Orlando, Fla. "A lot of new products are going to come out, and big companies are going to squash the little companies."
Clashes are cropping up as 3-D printers become more affordable and websites such as Thingiverse.com post blueprints to help the machines build everything from toy tanks to replacement toaster parts. The disputes are ushering in a new era in legal skirmishes over high-tech designs, threatening a printing market that's estimated by Wohlers Associates Inc. to surge to $10.8 billion by 2021 from $2.2 billion last year.
"We're at the tipping point," Darrell Mottley, a patent and trademark attorney at Banner & Witcoff in Washington, said in an interview. "The technology has got to where it's not that expensive. If you're a manufacturer and people start making their own replacement parts, what does that mean?"
3-D printers build an object by churning out thin layers of plastic one on top of the next, following instructions from a computer-drawn blueprint. They eliminate the need for older manufacturing techniques such as injection molding. Designers can craft their own schematics or download patterns online.
The latest consumer machines from companies such as 3D Systems Corp. and Stratasys Ltd. sell at retail prices of less than $3,000, making the technology accessible to people who wouldn't shell out more than 10 times that amount for industrial versions. More than 45,000 low-end models have been sold in the past three years, according to Todd Grimm, a board member of Additive Manufacturing Users Group.
3D Systems, a printer maker based in Rock Hill, S.C., is projected to post a 42 percent surge in revenue this year to $503.2 million, according to the average of analysts' estimates compiled by Bloomberg. Consumer models such as the CubeX are starting to make a "meaningful contribution" to growth, Chief Executive Officer Abraham Reichental said last month.
Sales at Stratasys, based in Eden Prairie, Minn., are estimated to more than double to $462.6 million this year, according to data compiled by Bloomberg. The company agreed to buy Brooklyn-based 3-D printing startup MakerBot in June for at least $403 million to expand sales to consumers.
Removing designs
Nuproto's Sosa uses a machine from Delta Micro Factory, which charges from $899 to $1,649, according to its website. HBO is focused on protecting its copyrights no matter how objects are produced, according to Jeff Cusson, a spokesman for the network, which is owned by Time Warner Inc.
"We're indifferent to the technology," Cusson said. "If you are going to infringe on our copyright, we are going to take steps to prevent you from doing so."
As 3-D printing becomes more ubiquitous, websites that help people profit from their creations are being asked to remove some designs, according to Pete Weijmarshausen, CEO of New York- based Shapeways. The company, which prints made-to-order products based on blueprints uploaded by users, has had five requests to remove items so far this year, he said. That's about as many as Shapeways got in 2012.
Weijmarshausen is on the defensive to keep that number from climbing.
Many more legal disputes have been prevented by his team of engineers who vet every design, making sure nothing violates copyrights, trademarks or patents. If it raises a flag, Shapeways takes it down, he said.
"We have to be diligent about it," Weijmarshausen said. "We have to put the right safeguards in place."
New software
In cases that do escalate, two things could tip the scales in designers' favor: websites can protect themselves from litigation by warning users against transmitting blueprints for copied products; and, corporations may not want to risk the backlash of taking their fans to court.
Mindful of potential litigation, several startups are developing software to protect designs distributed on 3-D printing sites. Mountain View, Calif.-based Authentise is developing SendShapes.com, which will stream instructions directly to 3-D printers, eliminating file downloads as a way to curtail the type of file-sharing that became rampant in the music industry.
Another startup, Sweden-based 3DBurrito.com, is developing software that would safeguard designs sold on its marketplace. The company plans to negotiate licensing agreements to sell blueprints from corporations that sell everything from toys to movies.
"It's important that they adopt this technology and work with marketplaces like ours to offer consumers a legal alternative," CEO Max Fodrus said in an interview.

The following cars represent the most technically advanced available.
The 2014 Silverado High Country is a big, beefy truck that boasts a level of standard and optional tech and amneities that's nearly comparable with one of GM's luxury sedans.
Chevy has turned up the wick on the Corvette, unveiling the new, supercharged Z06. It's faster than the ridiculous, outgoing ZR1, but won't be available until early 2015.
Pricing not available
Adherents of old-school truck design will favor the 2015 Suburban for its strong bones, and Chevrolet fits the cabin out with modern electronics to keep the techie generation satisfied, but the era of 6,000-pound passenger vehicles seems over.
Chevrolet differentiates its mid-sized Colorado pickup from its big, workhorse Silverado trucks with a more sporty style.
Pricing not available
Chevy's compact 'ute has been available internationally for years. This year it comes to the US, with a 7-inch touch screen and LTE connectivity.
Pricing not available
With the Stingray name making a comeback to the Corvette vernacular, XCAR takes a look back at the C2 'Vette, the original Ray.
The blandly designed 2014 Chevy Malibu offers a comfortable ride and easy driving manners, while its MyLink system makes for modern and functional cabin tech.
Among the long line of Corvette models, the Stingray feels like something special, a thoroughbred sports car for the 21st century that must be put on the track to be really enjoyed.
Chevy's little SUV has been available internationally for years, but never deemed good enough for American markets. That changes this year.
The Chevrolet Trax has been available internationally for years now. Finally this year it comes to the US, with a visual refresh to boot.

Colorado calls to us in the summer and draws us outside to play in its spectacular landscape. Here, we present nine itineraries that promise to get you outdoors—and loving every minute of the hot days of June, July, and August.
Something happens to time during the summer months. The clock seems to slow as the days lengthen, and this downtempo metronome changes the way we move—and play. There's more time to think, dream, meander, and relax, and it is in those unscripted, unhurried hours that the perfect summer day develops. Those casual days where you wake up with a glimmer of a plan, go with the flow, make detours, and settle down at the end of the night to marvel at how seamlessly it all flowed together. Here, nine itineraries that promise to help you capture that feeling of the perfect, blissed-out Colorado summer day.

This key transatlantic procurement programme is being executed following the signature of the AGS acquisition contract at the Chicago Summit in May 2012.
The NATO-owned and operated AGS core capability will enable the Alliance to perform persistent surveillance over wide areas from high-altitude, long-endurance, unmanned aerial platforms operating at considerable stand-off distances and in varied weather and light conditions. Using advanced radar sensors, these systems will continuously detect and track moving objects throughout observed areas and will provide radar imagery of areas of interest and stationary objects. In addition, the deployable and fixed ground stations will provide the capability of Moving Target Indicator (MTI) tracking and Imagery Intelligence (IMINT) exploitation services for any AGS and Joint Intelligence, Surveillance and Reconnaissance (JISR) interoperable asset.
The main operating base for AGS will be located at Sigonella Air Base in Italy, which will serve a dual purpose as a NATO JISR deployment base and data exploitation and training centre.
Just as NATO's Airborne Early Warning & Control (NAEW&C) aircraft – also known as AWACS – monitor Alliance airspace, AGS will be able to observe what is happening on the earth's surface, providing situational awareness before, during and, if needed, after NATO operations.
The AGS system is expected to be acquired by 15 Allies (Bulgaria, Czech Republic, Denmark, Estonia, Germany, Italy, Latvia, Lithuania, Luxembourg, Norway, Poland, Romania, Slovakia, Slovenia and the United States), and then will be made available to the Alliance in the 2016-2018 timeframe.
