Hopewell-Loudon at Elmwood
Records: Hopewell-Loudon 0-1; Elmwood 1-0
Coaches: Hopewell-Loudon, Jeremy Nutter; Elmwood, Brian Cooper
Last year: Hopewell-Loudon 38, Elmwood 6
Outlook: Elmwood is coming off a 32-0 thrashing of Gibsonburg in the debut of Cooper, and Nutter said he is impressed with what he's seen of the Royals so far.
"Just looking at it on film, I'm impressed with the job coach Cooper's done to get them to buy into smashmouth football," Nutter said. "They don't try to outsmart you. It's gonna be a challenge to try to match their physicality."
Nutter said his squad did a nice job of bouncing back after last week's loss to Leipsic.
"Practice has been good," Nutter said. "Guys have accepted it and moved on. They've worked hard."
Nutter said he was pleased with Alec Gregg's first start at quarterback. He said he wanted to see the Chieftains' completion percentage to go, which he said is the responsibility of the line and the receivers as well as the QB.
"Alec is gonna lead us to some wins, there's no question about it," Nutter said.
Carey at Bluffton
Records: Carey 0-1; Bluffton 1-0
Coaches: Carey, Todd Worst; Bluffton, Dennis Lee.
Last year: Bluffton 31, Carey 28
Outlook: Bluffton is coming off a 30-0 stomping of Cory-Rawson last week, and while Cory-Rawson, Ohio is a fictional place that only exists in the mind of would-be favorite son Ben Roethlisberger, the school, and the team, is very real.
So, it appears, are the Pirates, who were led by sophomore quarterback Robbie Stratton in last week's win over C-R. Stratton ran for 109 yards and a pair of touchdowns.
Worst said Bluffton's prowess goes beyond one player.
"Bluffton's gonna be a physical team that shows up ready to play. We can always count on Bluffton for a tough fight," he said. "They spread out their running game between quarterback and running back."
As for Carey, which fell to Upper Sandusky last week, Worst said Carey needs to do what it does best: hold the ball.
"Big thing is gonna be ball control," he said. "If we do what we do on offense and create bad situations for them on defense, it will help us."
Wynford at Mohawk
Records: Wynford 1-0, Mohawk 1-0
Coaches: Wynford, Gabe Helbert; Mohawk, Erik Baker
Last year: Wynford 33, Mohawk 0.
Outlook: Baker was asked if he noticed any differences on tape between this year's Wynford squad and the ones of past years.
"They don't have Tyler Brause or Zach Chatlin at quarterback," Baker said. "This new quarterback is a tremendous runner; he's gonna be writing his own script. This kid (Brock Williamson) is almost a tailback playing quarterback."
But Williamson also can throw, as he showed on the final play of the Royals' Week One game against River Valley. He threw a touchdown pass to Adam Hartz that gave Wynford a 20-14 win, its 59th-straight home win.
Mohawk also is coming off a win, but like most coaches, Baker still sees things to improve upon. For starters, his defense was on the field for 73 plays last week against Upper Scioto Valley.
"We had players on the field for 140 snaps; that's entirely too much," Baker said.
Baker said Mohawk quarterback Drew Loose had a strong first game, and Baker said it was key that he found a number of different receivers.
"Our distribution of the ball was a big difference for us," he said.
Gibsonburg at Lakota
Records: Gibsonburg 0-1, Lakota 0-1
Coaches: Gibsonburg, Steve Reser; Lakota, David Vodika
Last year: Gibsonburg 19, Lakota 16
Outlook: Vodika said he thinks his team is getting close.
Last week's 41-20 loss to Arcadia was an example of this. The Raiders went scoreless in the first half, but erupted for 20 second half points, including 14 in the fourth quarter.
"We have to start playing to win; we have to grow up," Vodika said. "We are at that point where we can become a decent football team."
To Vodika, it's all about execution. And if Lakota does that, it can match up with Gibsonburg, which was shut out by Elmwood a week ago.
Vodika said the Raiders have to be ready for the Bears' quarterback, Matt Tille.
"Tille's a tough quarterback, a hard-running kid," Vodika said.
But Vodika said Lakota's success will come down to what it is able to do.
"We need to play like we're capable of playing, and that's what we're looking forward to," he said.
Plymouth at Seneca East
Records: Plymouth 0-1; Seneca East 1-0
Coaches: Plymouth, Mark Genders; Seneca East, Ed Phillips
Last Year: Seneca East 34, Plymouth 7
Outlook: Phillips couldn't have asked for more out of his defense as the Tigers started the season by posting a 20-0 shut out of South Central.
"That was exciting. Anytime you can go out and get a shutout you have to be impressed with the way the defense played," Phillips said. "First drive they drove down and got to our 9. ... We started off season with a goal line stand, and that set the tone for the night. They dominated pretty much the rest of the way. (South Central) never posed a big threat after that."
Phillips is going to need another strong performance out of his defense as this week the Tigers welcome to town a Plymouth team that put up 42 points in a Week 1 loss.
"Coach Genders has done a really nice job with the program," he said. "They are a very deceptive team. They do a lot of misdirection; they'll run spread and they'll run wishbone. So they give you multiple looks.
"Up front they are very sound. Their center is a Division-II [college] type player. They're a good, sound team offensively; they got a lot of weapons."
Phillips is hoping his team can clean up some of the unforced errors that it committed against South Central, namely false starts and other penalties. He is also looking for his players to stick to their assignments on both sides of the ball.
"We need to be assignment-sound up front, on both sides of the ball," he said. "Offensively we need to hit our assignments to move the ball. Defensively, they run some triple option, so we need to stick to our assignments there to stop them."
Upper Sandusky at Colonel Crawford
Records: Upper Sandusky 1-0; Colonel Crawford 1-0
Coaches: Upper Sandusky, Jake Moyer; Colonel Crawford, Ryan Teglovic
Last Year: Upper Sandusky 28, Colonel Crawford 7
Outlook: Two words hold the key for Upper Sandusky. For Moyer, two words are the difference between last year's 5-5 Ram team, and the one that went into Carey Week 1 and walked out with a victory.
"Maturation and resolve," he said. "Our kids have grown up. A lot of them were forced to grow up last season. We threw some puppies to the wolves, they had to grow up in a hurry. ...they took their lumps but they kept coming back each week. They had a great offseason, and I think that showed against Carey."
Junior quarterback Tylor Pritchard, in his second year as a starter, keyed the win with 104 rushing yards, 168 passing yards and four total touchdowns.
Moyer might need to get a similar outing from Pritchard this week as the Rams face a Colonel Crawford team that is similar in regards to being a young team a year ago, ready to grow up in 2012.
"Colonel Crawford has evolved in their offense," Moyer said. "They ran a good Wing-t, solid, sound package. This year their quarterback, Nate Klingenberger, he's a tall kid, got a great arm. They've evolved into a spread team kind of like we have. They run a real good draw, run a real good screen pass and throw the ball all over the place.
"We need to put pressure on him force him to make some bad decisions. We want to control the clock. Last week we were 50-50 run-to-pass, we really like that ratio."
Bowling Green at Fostoria
Records: Bowling Green 0-1; Fostoria 0-1
Coaches: Bowling Green, Steve Aungst; Fostoria, Jim Kelly
Last Year: Bowling Green 14, Fostoria 13
Outlook: It was a rough start to the Jim Kelly-era at Fostoria as the Redmen fell victim to Ottawa-Glandorf 62-7 last week. Although the game showed Kelly a few areas his team needed to improve on, he did see some positives in the effort.
"I think we have a lot of things we needed to work on this week," Kelly said. "We always try to take positives out of everything we do it. We've had to work on sticking together and not tearing each other down at times. I think we did a good job of that. We were clearly out matched, yet we stuck together. Friday night we turned the page and started getting ready for BG."
For those returning to the Fostoria team this year, a bad taste still lingers in their mouth after a close loss to the Bobcats last season.
"Our seniors, it's on their mind," Kelly said. "What it did was took away a potential playoff spot. Had they won that BG game, they probably would've been in the playoffs. ... That's something we talked about it a lot. We don't underestimate BG. We really had to prepare mentally on the game, not just the physical part of it."
Kelly said BG ran two quarterbacks in a loss last week to Rossford, each bringing a dual-threat to the table.
"They have some nice athletic kids. They try to move the ball down the field, get it in the air and throw it," Kelly said. "They had two quarterbacks last week, they like to throw but they're able to break contain and run. For us, we just got to do what we do, and thats play hard-nosed Fostoria football. If we can do that and be physical, that's the tone we want to set that we feel can help us.
Buckeye Central at Mapleton
Records: Buckeye Central 1-0; Mapleton 0-1
Coaches: Buckeye Central, Jason Ratliff; Mapleton, Ray Frisbee
Last Year: Buckeye Central 41-7
Outlook: Ratliff had a lot of holes to fill from a senior class that led the Bucks to a state runner-up finish last year. It took him three quarters into Week 1 before the new starters began to step up.
"I think the fourth quarter is what we liked the most (from last week)," Ratliff said. "We were down going in to the fourth, and came back and was able to score twice. I really liked how our kids never gave up."
That still leaves three quarters worth of things to work on.
"We got to tackle better on defense; we didn't tackle very well," he said. "Offensively it will just take some time with so many new guys."
The one returner at the skill positions in running back Michael Adkins who rushed for 165 yards and three scores. Ratliff though is looking for other weapons to step up.
"We know what Michael can do. After watching him last year we knew what his capable of," he said. "We need to develop some of the new kids to help take some of the burden off him."
This week the Bucks travel to face a Mapleton squad who is coming off a blow out loss to Carrollton last week. Still, Ratliff sees the danger the Mounties present.
"They're a very athletic team," he said. "They have a lot of very fast skill kids and their traditional big linemen. They like to run sweeps and get to the outside.
"We make sure we get guys to the football and make plays. We need to tackle better."
He's also looking for continued progress out of the new starters
"Hopefully in their second game and they understand what its like to play at the varsity level and they can help take some of the pressure off of Michael."

FOSTORIA - Andrew Sprang has been chosen to be Fostoria City Schools new superintendent.
Sprang was chosen in November to replace Steve Pritts and is the fifth person to hold the title since he started working for the district in 2001.
Sprang was a social studies teacher at Fostoria Junior/Senior High School for six years and became assistant principal for Fostoria Intermediate Elementary in 2007 and principal in 2010.
Sprang graduated from Kenton High School and received his bachelor's and graduate degrees from the University of Findlay.
Sprang and his wife Angie and their three children, Aidan, Addelyn and Avalon plan to move to Fostoria from Findlay.
Sprang started working in the position Jan. 1 and said things are off to a good start and is hoping for better things to come for the district.
"I wanted to become superintendent at some point in my career and I feel that now is a good opportunity, since I have been in the district for the last 12 years, to step up and help out.
The district is working on the transition to common core standards that are going to be put in place next school year. It also is focusing on the new local report card and online testing.
"There is a lot of work to do and these are our big pushes; schools are a focal point to the community," Sprang said.
He said the biggest downside to his new position is not being able to spend time interacting with the students.
"Every day is different," Sprang said. "You can have a plan but you never know what is going to happen on that day. It is important to learn from all of those experiences.
"I feel that with my time in Fostoria, I can connect well with what the teachers are experiencing because I have walked in their shoes," he said.
He said he'll routinely visit buildings across the district to maintain a closeness with students and staff and keep up on what's happening in the classroom.
"It is important that the kids see that the superintendent is involved and comes out and is at events," Sprang said.

Both the House of Representatives and the Senate forged ahead on health care reform; however, neither the House nor the Senate were able to pass their respective versions of health care reform before adjourning for the August Congressional recess period which begins on August 3rd. Unfortunately, this delay means that Congress will miss the deadline set by the President earlier this year to enact health care reform.
Before leaving to begin the August Congressional recess period, House Energy and Commerce Committee Chairman Henry Waxman (D-CA) reached a deal with 4 of the 7 Blue Dog Coalition members that sit on the Committee. The Blue Dog Coalition, who so far had been a roadblock to finalizing the House bill, consists of 50 fiscally conservative Democratic members of the House. With this deal, the mark-up of H.R. 3200, the America's Affordable Health Choices Act of 2009 (the House version of health care reform), continued so that the Committee could finalize the bill. The Energy and Commerce Committee mark-up was the one of the remaining hurdles for the bill before reaching the House floor. The deal with the Blue Dog Coalition reduces subsidies to low-income Americans, prevents a new public insurance plan from being based on Medicare rates, increases exemptions for small businesses and cuts the cost of the overall package by more than $100 billion. Additionally, this deal pushes off until September a vote on the House floor.
In the Senate, the Finance Committee continues bipartisan negotiations on their portion of the health care reform bill and is expected to release its version of health care reform upon returning from the August Congressional recess period. In the Senate, the Finance Committee members negotiating the sweeping reform package are close to dropping a requirement that employers provide health insurance for employees as well as a government-run public insurance plan to forge a compromise, despite the President's support for such measures. The Finance bill is shaping up to be significantly different from H.R. 3200 and the health care reform bill passed by the Senate Health, Education, Labor, and Pensions (HELP) Committee. It is expected to lack both a government-run insurance plan and a mandate that employers cover their workers. Additionally, Finance members are leaning toward a tax on generous insurance plans to fund their bill, instead of the surtax on wealthy Americans included in H.R. 3200.
Both the House and Senate expect to pass their respective health care reform bills when they return in September. The IMF will continue to keep patients, family members, health care providers and supporters apprised of the developments for U.S. health care reform.

ALFRED – No criminal charges will likely be filed against anyone for the natural gas leak that caused a destructive blast and fire which damaged a portion of the Rose Apartment complex on Glen Street, police indicated Wednesday.
Two residents had to be hospitalized Sunday after the 5 p.m. incident caused by the installation of a snow fence yards from the complex. A gas line 20 inches below the ground was punctured, leading to the explosion, Alfred police said.

Watch 1980s video clip of WWUH in the News!
When the University of Hartford was incorporated just over 50 years ago by business and community leaders, they envisioned a center of education and culture for Greater Hartford. At its core, it would be a university for the community created by the community.
The University has come a long way since its humble beginnings on Hartford's last remaining farm, evolving from a local school for commuters into a comprehensive university that attracts students from throughout the world. Yet it remains true to its original mission of serving as a valued resource for individuals, families, businesses, and communities throughout the Hartford region, offering hundreds of programs that serve the University and its neighbors every day. For over 45 years listener supported WWUH has served an important role in the University's community service mission.

OK, so it doesn't have the same ring that March Madness does. However, could a May Madness style promotion up the ante for lacrosse?
Upping the ante is exactly what has worked for basketball. Since the NCAA D1 basketball bracket gambling started, the gambling has grown, so has the following of the tournament. It is simple to fill out, simple scoring, and is socially acceptable. Everyone does it from CEOs to High School kids; soccer moms…even the President of the United States, Barack Obama shared his bracket picks this year.
Just so we are clear before I go any further. The NC$$ stance on gambling is that it is not OK. They even produced a multi-media campaign against it. Funny how I saw multiple Budweiser and pizza commercials while watching the games, yet I don't recall any NCAA commercials telling the viewers gambling is bad…mmm-kay.
I guess when they are making over $500 Million per year, they take the Bud Selig approach with steroids.
This year, I say lets do it for lacrosse. Get a company like Dick's or Gatorade to hold a free bracketology for lacrosse (that way no one is gambling per se). Dish out gift cards for the winners. It would need to be a non-lacrosse company. I mean we want not only lacrosse fans, but new blood entering for a chance at some free swag. By entering, they would at least have to do a little research about our sport, and be exposed to it. As we all know, once you see your first game of lacrosse, you get hooked.
Who knows. You may even see a contest here.

LOCKPORT – Isaac L. McDonald, a Niagara Falls man accused of raping a 15-year-old girl last year, was told Thursday by Niagara County Judge Sara Sheldon Farkas that he if he doesn't make a plea deal by March 12, he must go to trial April 8 on charges that carry a possible life prison sentence.
McDonald, 29, of 24th Street, a Level 3 sex offender because of two previous convictions for having sex with underage girls, is accused of seven sexual encounters with the current complainant last spring, including one alleged forcible rape.
Thursday, Farkas rejected a defense effort to invalidate McDonald's arrest while staying at a friend's home, because he had no expectation of privacy there, and the resident let police in to look for McDonald. Also, Farkas said, anywhere he was living had to be a matter of public record because of his status as a registered sex offender.

Hey True Belivers!
Today's look is a special one! I've teamed up with one of my dear friends, and supremely talented artist, Sara Richard again to bring you another collaboration! This time, we're doing some X-Men villainesses! To start this awesome collaboration off, I picked the lovely, unfortunate, and enraged Madelyne Pryor aka the Goblin Queen from the now classic Inferno storyline!
Madelyne was the wife of Scott Summers aka Cyclops and the biological mother of Cable. She was also cloned from Jean Grey by Mr. Sinister (which is something NO one knew when she met and married Cyclops, but common…everyone noticed how much she looked like Jean and NO ONE suspected it?? common people!! LOL), and was an all around nice girl, up until Jean came back from "the dead" (I use that term loosely lol) and Cyclops left Madelyne and their newborn to be with his now back from the dead ex girlfriend….AWKWARD! Basically, Madelyne couldn't handle it, and decided to shack up with a bunch of demons and went mental. She also tried to sacrifice her own kid…wow! (to sum things up!)
I based this eye makeup and lips off of her sexy black costume (can you say supreme under boob?! jeez…I don't even know how she didn't fall out….double sided tape? lol) and pulled the red from her hair and also the demonic energy she was weilding. And like our previous collaborations, Sara took the makeup I designed and wore, and placed it on an illustration of the character wearing it.
I had filmed a tutorial for this, but I lost ALL of the footage of me doing the makeup and only managed to not lose the intro and outro. D'Oh!
I hope you guys enjoy this look and make sure to go check out Sara's work and buy a few prints if you really adore them as much as I do!

Thrust Vectoring is a thing used on modern fighters for extra manuverability. In TV(Thrust Vec), the two nozzels for the after burner are made into the controls for the aircraft so they move with the alerons and the elevators. The first aircraft to use thrust vec was the Russian Su-37 "Terminator", however, when the Americans saw thrust vec on the Russian planes, they "borrowed" the idea, then, they took all the credit for being the first to have it even though they weren't. The ability of thrust vec greatly increses the mobility of the aircraft, alowing it to be able to do manuvers other planes can only dream of doing.
The pilot with the thrust vectoring on his plane out turned the other pilot.

As we settle in for a much-needed bye week Sunday, a quick review of the numbers:
Against the Patriots and Niners, the Bills became the first NFL team to allow 550 yards in consecutive games since the 1950 New York Yanks. Their opponents' current average of 5.95 yards per rush, over a full season, would be second all-time to the 1934 Cincinnati Reds.
That's how bad it is. The Bills' defense is challenging records for futility that date back to when NFL clubs had the same nicknames as baseball teams. I'll be honest, I didn't realize that the Reds and Yanks had played in the NFL. Did they have Cubs and Pirates, too?
Oh, and as Mark Gaughan pointed out in Saturday's News, the Bills are allowing 32.4 points a game, a pace that would rank as the second-worst in NFL history behind the 1981 Baltimore Colts.
So for Bills fans, this has been one of the most depressing defensive runs in franchise history. But I'll take it a step further.
When you consider that it occurred after the Bills gave Mario Williams a $100 million contract, making him the highest-paid defensive player ever in the NFL, these past two months rank among the most humiliating defensive stretches in the history of the league.
Williams' mysterious wrist injury only makes matters worse. It's bad enough that Mario is using an injury to excuse his poor play. When the head coach claims ignorance about the severity of the injury, or the surgical procedure that Williams had last week to treat it, it looks bad for everybody.
Either Chan Gailey doesn't know, or he's playing dumb to cover for his alleged superstar. He doesn't seem to have much of a handle on his defensive problems, either. A strong head coach has command over every aspect of his operation. Gailey appears out of his depth in the current crisis.
There's plenty of blame to go around. But Williams is dragging the whole team down. We talk about superstars lifting their teams in sports. Well, alleged superstars who underperform and give a half-hearted effort, while being paid a king's ransom, can have the opposite effect.
Nick Barnett has talked about a "lack of urgency." It's a favorite cliche of struggling teams. Lindy Ruff and the Sabres ought to have it copyrighted. I see more a sense of discouragement in the Bills. The life goes out of them too easily in games. Williams is a big part of that.
When a star underachieves, it can infiltrate a team's competitive subconcscious. When the highest-paid defensive player in league history is pointing to his wrist, it can have a toxic effect. You can't tell me it's not affecting the locker room.
Chris Kelsay questioned some players' effort last Monday. He talked about accountability and playing hard on every snap. He said you could watch the film and see there were players not going all-out. Kelsay took personal responsibility, but I suspect Williams was a major target of his ire.
A few days after the Pats game, I asked one Bill what he felt about Williams and his injury. You guys are warriors, I said. Just about everyone is hurt in some way. Mario's complaints can't go over well in here.
"I'm with you 100 percent on that," he said. "A lot of us are."
You don't hear any passionate defense of the guy. Gailey gives Williams mild praise. But from the start, he has downplayed the wrist injury. He said the Bills don't put every ankle and knee sprain on the injury report. After the "procedure," Gailey still referred to it as one of those "little things."
Williams' defenders point out that Gailey first revealed the wrist injury early this season. Williams hadn't mentioned it before then. But Williams would have brought it up soon enough. He seems only too willing to refer to the wrist when being quizzed about his dubious play.
There always seems to be an explanation when the $100 million man has a bad day. Remember the opener at the Jets? After getting outplayed by some no-name, Williams prefaced his postgame remarks by whining about the officials.
On the day he signed, Williams referred to his teammates as "brothers." I don't detect any profound brotherhood. Williams is the only Bill I can remember who had a personal refrigerator in his locker, even though the same drinks are available in a cooler about 30 feet across the room.
Williams is the only Bill who is required to speak with the media only once a week, not counting game days. Teams are allowed two such designations. This is the only Bill I recall asking for the privilege.
Maybe it's petty to bring those things up. But what does it say about Williams? How could he be so politically tone deaf to make gestures that set him apart from his teammates and make him look like a diva?
The Bills' locker room is filled with good guys. I suppose they've done their best to make Williams feel accepted. In the Super Bowl days, there would be a line of players waiting to fight him.
Mario says he doesn't care what people think. Maybe that's the problem. Believe me, the guys in Jim Kelly's day cared. They took any insult, real or perceived, as a competitive challenge. They hated losing. They fought each other. In the end, they pulled together and turned it on the opposition.
I don't see that in this team, certainly not in Mario Williams. There's no discernible passion or fire in the guy. Maybe he ought to care more now that devoted Bills fans are looking at him as an overpaid fraud.
When Williams signed, people said it almost seemed too good to be true. Reasonable fans were ready to accept that fact that no player could live up to the expectations that accompany a $100 million contract.
No one could have imagined it would be this bad. But really, is it any surprise that a man who can't walk 30 feet to get a Gatorade doesn't always run all-out to the whistle?

BEMUS POINT – A 75-year-old man was arrested Friday for allegedly sexually abusing two girls in Bemus Point between June and December of 2011, Chautauqua County Sheriff's officials said.
The suspect was identified as Ralph J. Bush.
An arrest warrant was issued out of Ellery Town Court, which was served to Bush Friday.
He was arraigned and remanded to the County Jail in lieu of $20,000 cash bail or $40,000 property bond.
The investigation was handed by the sheriff's office, with the assistance of Chautauqua County Child Protective Services, the District Attorney's Office and the Child Advocacy Porgram of Chautauqua County.

Rush Limbaugh Loses Sponsors Over Law Student Insults, Mom Tries to Show Daughter Limbaugh's Message Is WrongCarolyn Castiglia
The war on women's reproductive rights continues! In case you missed it, Rush Limbaugh apologized over the weekend for the sexist rant he aimed at Georgetown law student Sandra Fluke last week. Limbaugh called Fluke a "slut" and a "prostitute" because she testified at a Democratic forum in Washington that she believes birth control should be covered by health insurance at religious institutions. As a result of his gaffe, Limbaugh has lost seven sponsors and there are several petitions circulating online calling for his dismissal from the airwaves. Fluke appeared on The View this morning and told the hosts that Limbaugh's apology doesn't change her opinion of him, "Especially when that statement is issued when he's under significant pressure from his sponsors, who have begun to pull their support from the show." According to Fluke, Limbaugh insulted her and the women of Georgetown University "over 53 times" on his show.
Limbaugh isn't the only public figure who has taken aim at female Georgetown students recently. Actress Patricia Heaton was also caught spewing ugly words toward "G-Town Gals" on Twitter, which she later removed. Blogger Angry Black Lady took a screen shot of Heaton's Twitter feed before the comments were retracted. They include taunts like, "Hey G-Town: stop buying toothpaste, soap and shampoo! You'll save money, and no one will want to sleep with you!" and "Hey G-Town Gal! If your parents have to pay for your birth control, maybe they should get a say in who u sleep with! Instant birth control!"
And on DailyKos, Beantown Mom writes about how she spent the weekend trying to convince her 16-year-old daughter – who takes birth control pills for menorrhagia and secondary dysmenorrhea – that she's not a slut "like that guy on the radio" says she is.
Beantown Mom writes, "My 16-year-old daughter came home from school on Friday in tears and has been in a state of utter despair since. She was told, in no uncertain terms, that she is a slut, a prostitute, a horny piece of trash that is out to sleep with every guy in school!" Apparently Beantown Girl's classmates were told by their mothers (no big surprise) that this was the case, thanks to Limbaugh and his ability to "tell it like it is."
Beantown Mom details her daughter's 8-9 day periods and raging PMS as a means of explaining why she chose to put her daughter on birth control, but, she asserts, even if her daughter were using the pill for pregnancy prevention, "so what?!?!" Unfortunately, Beantown Girl's classmates and their mothers don't see it that way; the 16-year-old was handed a note in school that reads:
Little miss innocent, huh? Whatever slut- you take birth control pills so you can f*&# every guy in school! What a joke- u are nothin but a whore! Pretty bad when some guy on the radio who isn't afraid to tell the truth has to break it down for everybody- if u on the Pill u are nothing but a skank ass ho! My mom said girls on the pill are tramps who just wanna get laid and don't care about nothin- is that how u are?
You can read the entire account here. Beantown Mom notes that the girls making fun of her daughter may have been informed about the fact that her daughter was taking birth control as the result of a recent band trip when a parent was charged with handing out students' medication each day. She says, "The doctor was a parent that agreed to go on the trip and be responsible for the medications. I don't know what blame to assign to him, if any, but that was the role he played." So there's more than one issue at play here: the Rush Limbaugh-based bullying and the violation of this child's privacy rights. Beantown Mom says she has no plans to sue the school.

Last Friday, Dollhouse, the latest series from Joss Whedon, the creator of Buffy the Vampire Slayer, Angel and Firefly, began its second season on Fox; and it may have found its footing at last.
Here's hoping it's not too late.
Dollhouse centers around an organization that programs various men and women with the necessary personalities for a given situation. Then it "rents" them to high paying clients. When not in the field, these "Actives" or "Dolls" are kept in a child-like state. These individuals all agreed for reasons of their own to have their personalities wiped for five years, while selling their bodies into indentured servitude. At the end of that time, they'd receive a huge paycheck.
The central character is "Echo" (Eliza Dushku), or "Caroline", to give her real name. She should have been the series' prime mover- especially given the revelation that even after being returned to a tabula rasa state, Echo often retained some bits of the personalities she'd been programmed to assume.
Instead, the series' prime mover last season was FBI Agent Paul Ballard (Tahmoh Penikett), who'd been searching for Caroline, and was trying to prove the Dollhouse existed. For all intents and purposes, it was The Paul Ballard Show.
Yes, I was curious to know why Ballard was so driven, especially since he didn't know Caroline; but Echo was the protagonist. She should have driven the action.
It looks like she finally will. She has told Ballard (who agreed to work with the Dollhouse for unstated reasons) that she remembers being other people. She also not only wants to "find Caroline", but (if I understood) help the other "Dolls" find their original selves.
All well and good, but something along those lines should happened last season.
And what is the Dollhouse's raison d'etre? In one episode Echo was programmed with the personality of a hostage negotiator. Why? Why not hire an actual hostage negotiator?
The "Dolls" aren't androids capable of handing situations ordinary humans couldn't; nor is the Dollhouse meant to handle top secret and/or sensitive situations that can't go through "ordinary channels" (some Dollhouse clients appear to treat it as an escort service). So why the need to program "Actives"?
If the show were set in a political environment akin to the Cold War, it might make sense to have the volunteers programmed with personalities sympathetic to the enemy power. The "Dolls" would carry out their programming unaware that they were double agents. They'd have no qualms about what they were doing, because they'd have no feelings of guilt. Raymond Shaw, but with better programming. The closest we came to that was the way the Dollhouse used the Dolls Victor and November against Paul Ballard.

LISBON - The body of a man found Wednesday morning by a group of Mennonites near the "ski slope" area of state Route 45 has been identified as an East Liverpool mental health patient missing since June.
Sheriff Ray Stone confirmed Friday afternoon that the body found was that of Donald T. McCauley, 44, who had been most recently staying at Kendall House, a mental health facility on the campus of the Columbiana County Counseling Center in Lisbon.
He had been transported by ambulance June 10 to Salem Community Hospital emergency room, from which he was released the same day. He called the Kendall House and arrangements were made to pick up McCauley by taxi cab.
An hour later, he reportedly called back and said he was tired of waiting for the cab and planned to walk back to Lisbon. McCauley had not been seen nor heard from since and was officially reported missing June 21.
A Carrollton man, his two brothers and two cousins were walking the isolated property west of state Route 45 and north of Teegarden Road in preparation for timbering it when one of them saw the body over a hillside and called the sheriff's office.
Stone said Friday the one relative able to be found was notified of McCauley being found, but the cause of death is still pending, with the Summit County Coroner conducting an autopsy. Initial reports indicated no foul play was suspected.
Officials had reported previously that McCauley suffered from various mental illnesses, including hallucinations.
Stone said Salem police were also notified of the identification so McCauley could officially be removed from the missing person list.

Battle of the Brains
NO MATTER HOW experienced you are, blind wine tasting makes you nervous. It is just past 9:30 a.m. and standing in the entrance of London's Oxford and Cambridge Club are some pretty apprehensive-looking individuals. It is the annual Oxford & Cambridge University Blind Wine-Tasting Competition, a sort of vinous version of the Boat Race. Only instead of a seven-kilometer scull down the River Thames, this battle is fought over a wine glass—12 to be precise—and it isn't physical fitness and mental stamina that count but olfactory recognition and flavor recall.
This year marks the 60th anniversary of what the organizer, Champagne house Pol Roger, says is the oldest wine-tasting competition of its type in the world. The first match was held in 1953, set up by the late Harry Waugh, one of England's most gifted wine merchants; it took place in a private house, in what one of the competitors, Julian Jeffs, described as a spirit of "amateur imbibing." It was won by Oxford, with Cambridge winning the next four in a row. Today, the tally stands at Oxford 36 to Cambridge 23—a reversal of the Boat Race, which Cambridge leads by 81 wins to 76.
What by all accounts started as a bit of light competition among some thirsty undergraduates has morphed into a ferociously competitive fixture. Today there isn't a trace of the genial, enthusiastic-amateur ethos of competitions past. These undergraduates are here to win, with an impressive training schedule behind them.
Ellie Jy Kim, the Cambridge captain, said her team spent four weeks intensively training for the match in which they endured five tastings a week. On the Oxford team, Tom Arnold, a Chemistry Ph.D. student, says their training begins in earnest in January, after which they taste four times a week, including a 12-bottle tasting on Saturday afternoons.
To mark this year's event, alongside the undergraduate fixture, Pol Roger invited a press team, captained by me, to take on a wine-trade team led by Master of Wine and Berry Bros. & Rudd Burgundy director Jasper Morris. Mr. Morris, who is also the author of "Inside Burgundy" (2010), has assembled an impressive-looking team, including four Masters of Wine, the wine trade's highest qualification, and two master sommeliers.
As the 14 undergraduates from Cambridge and Oxford receive their final briefing before heading to the tasting room, some of my team, a collection of wine critics, television wine experts and newspaper columnists, look decidedly uneasy. Reputations are at stake.
'There isn't a trace of the genial, enthusiastic-amateur ethos of competitions past.'
There are 12 wines—six whites, six reds—to be identified. Scores are awarded for the correct identification of the wine's predominant grape variety, country of origin, viticultural region, subdistrict and vintage. Both teams have six tasters and a reserve, whose score counts only if there is a tie. As we walk into our separate rooms, the event's organizers, Cassidy Dart and James Simpson of Pol Roger, announce that we have 40 minutes for the six white wines, a 20-minute break, followed by 40 minutes on the reds. The bottle shape and color won't help, either; each wine is served in a transparent decanter. With all the whites poured, the stop watch is started and we're off.
A quick sniff through the whites revealed a white Burgundy, aged Riesling and a sweet Bordeaux. These three were fairly straightforward but the others, a Loire Chenin Blanc, Châteauneuf-du-Pape and a Condrieu, made from the Viognier grape variety, were tricky.
A Process of Elimination
Blind wine tasting isn't easy. For the professional, it's a chance to assess a wine's style objectively. For the amateur, it is a bit of fun and an impressive party trick. Over the years, I have done more than my fair share of blind tastings, having as an undergraduate helped inaugurate the annual competition between Edinburgh and St. Andrews universities in Scotland. The best approach to take is one of elimination. First work out what it isn't.
If it is a red wine, is the color pale, medium or dark? This should give some indication of the grape variety and the age of the wine. A pale red could indicate a Pinot Noir; a dark one, a Syrah.
With whites, the assessment is more on the nature and intensity of the aromatics. If it bursts with tropical fruit it could be a Gewürztraminer or a Sauvignon Blanc. If it has more vanilla, butter flavors, you are looking at the Chardonnay/Sémillon spectrum.
The reds, by common consent, were a little harder. The Left Bank Bordeaux was an easy spot. I had this down as a Pauillac, but it later transpired it was from the Graves. The Burgundy made itself known, although I again overthought and changed my mind, putting it down as a New Zealand Pinot Noir, and there was an obvious Italian and a Californian Syrah.
But it was the fifth red wine, a Vega-Sicilia Unico from 1953, that puzzled us the most. I spotted it was from Spain and thought it was an aged Rioja—a rather good one, too—but nobody I spoke to afterward guessed its age.
Oxford won the day with 689 to Cambridge's 677 points, while we lost by just six points to the professionals, who won 914 to 908. When the wines were revealed and producers such as Domaine Huët, Château Haut-Brion, Vega-Sicilia and Château Climens were read out, we learned we had tasted some of the finest wines ever made.

The quest for renewable, nonpolluting sources of energy requires us to understand, predict, and ultimately control matter and energy at the electronic, atomic, and molecular levels. Because light sources are the scientific tools of choice for exploring the electronic and atomic structure of matter, they are uniquely positioned to jump-start a global revolution in renewable and carbon-neutral energy technologies.
To help raise awareness of the role that light sources can play in addressing our energy challenges, the ALS has published a new brochure titled "Photon Science for Renewable Energy at Light-Source Facilities of Today and Tomorrow." The 20-page booklet describes many specific ways in which studies performed at the ALS contribute to advancing energy technology. It is divided into seven sections: Sunlight to Electricity (solar power), Sunlight to Fuel (biofuel and artificial photosynthesis), Energy Storage: Batteries, Electrochemical Fuel Cells, CO2 Capture and Sequestration, Combustion, and Catalysis.
Copies will be available in the ALS lobby while supplies last. A PDF file of the brochure can be downloaded from the General Publications Web page.

Savage 24 in .22WMR/.410 here. Great little gun.

Here is why I'm always broke. I just received this 1955 Sauer LUX drilling with a 6XHensoldt in Suhler claw mounts, a left barrel 22mag insert barrel (einstecklauf in German) in 16gauge 2 3'4" chambers and 6.5X57R rifle, a close cartridge to the 257 Roberts. The price was right, and it was my 65th birthday, so what the heck? :rolleyes:
I had to sell my Sauer 3000 drilling in 12ga and 30-06 to buy this gun and one other drilling...so 2 for 1. ;)
September 9, 2012, 12:17 AM
I have had a drilling for a long time.
I used to hunt bear and grouse in VT but now there are no grouse or bear there.
Now all I do is talk about it on the net and carry it on a farm once in a while.

My absolute favorite firearm is a Springfield M6 Scout (.22LR/.410)
If the house caught fire, the family was safe outside, the family albums and my M6 would be coming out on the run back in to save stuff.
You guys that love the old Model 24's......good news....Jeff Quinn from Gunblasts reviewed the new version combo gun by Savage. It is the Model 42 (.22 over .410 with a polymer stock) Not as purty as the old 24, but looks like a real "woods" gun. Lighter than the originals too.
September 9, 2012, 01:26 AM
I keep pretending that someday I'll be able to afford a 2x16+1x9.3x74R drilling.

September 9, 2012, 04:40 PM
The Savage guns are neat combo guns - I had the "Camper's Companion" for a while - but they are not true drillings in that they only have 2 barrels.
Luv2Safari - have you looked into the drillings on www.gunsinternational.com? or the creations of Peter Hofer : http://www.hoferwaffen.com/hofer_1.php?lang=en, or Philip Ollendorf : http://www.jagdwaffen-ollendorff.com/en/philipp-ollendorff.html ???
Some beautiful drillings, Vierlings, and more
September 9, 2012, 05:01 PM
I had two in 12ga/7X57R, and both shot very well! If you need a scope mount for it try these. They work GREAT on the Baikals!
Don't let the price fool you, these do work and seem very strong. The base is for a high powered air rifle with the heavy piston recoil; it has a top set screw to further keep it from moving.

Three, all Savage 24 derivatives....first, an original Stevens 22/410, second, a Savage 24DL 22/20' and finally a Savage 24 V in 222/20. All accurate, all game getters. I've found, after about fifteen of these things that, for me, the older ones with the rifle barrel grazed full length to the shot barrel are more accurate. The 222 will do an honest inch and a half. None have ever had good triggers.

The 24 in 20/222 is a great combination, IMO. :cool:

I am ignorant about barrels. It seems that the more I 'think' I understand, the less I 'know'. How, what kind of magical incantation, or cyro, or talent, or voodoo allow three barrels to be regulated so POA is the same as POI?
Not intended to be rude, but waaay confused.

A lot of years as an apprentice under a master gun maker, knowing the quirks of combination guns from 10-40 years of working on and with them, and many hours of soldering and re-soldering barrels together and test firing them go into a proper drilling.
The newer ones benefit from technology and different design with floating rifle barrels. The Mathelon 3-rifle barrel drilling is still soldered together, and that is mastery beyond my comprehension.
The great masters even make 4 and 5 barrel combination guns! :eek:

That would be his Hummingbird. For those unfamiliar with that gun - it is a double barrel rifle that weighs 1 kilogram - 2.2 pounds

This is the best I can do for gaudy. 1926 Triebel-Aushburg 16/16/8X57JR with 22 LR insert and 4X Hensoldt.
I call it my "pimp drilling". :rolleyes:
October 9, 2012, 03:05 PM
would like to find a 24 in 22 Hornet/12g....
Handle one up before you buy one. The 12 ga 24s are heavy.
October 9, 2012, 03:31 PM
Just picked up a Remington/Baikal SPR94 12 Gauge/.223 combo gun this weekend. Enjoyed shooting it at the range -- now trying to scope it with the odd/small 11mm base that is on it. Anyone with info head over to the "Accessories" page!
October 9, 2012, 09:14 PM
luv2safari - pimp drilling is right... I think my eyes melted...:D
I having trouble making my picture attach, but mine's an Immanual Meffert 16 over 8x57R. Hope to actually take something with it this year...

I also have the Savage .222/20ga. I used to use it all the time for hunting quail, and when the coyotes started invading my quail fields it came mighty handy in culling off the excess coyotes. I placed a 4X scope on it with see thru mounts on it. Still have it, just haven't used it much anymore, as I wasn't the only one taking care of the coyote problem.:D
October 11, 2012, 01:49 PM
These are easy to scope and are very accurate, if not eye candy. ;)
Get a two piece scope base adapter set to adapt a 3/8" grooved receiver over to Weaver type rings. I did this on the 12ga/7X57R version I recently sold. It worked great.
I have several one piece base adapters that are very secure and are steel with a top set screw to make sure the base doesn't move. The only drawback is they mount the scope a bit high.
PM me a name and address, and I'll send you a base to try, no charge. :)
October 11, 2012, 07:45 PM
For a combo gun (two bbls) I like The Valmet 412's,. They could he had in shotgun, combo gun or double rifle.
Best part is, you could buy an action and then buy any one of the more than 25 different bbls later!
Valmet also offered a QD scope mount,
And it's an all steel mount that goes on and off easily, and accurately! Here's a target from one of my 12ga - 30-06 bbl. sets, taking the scope off and putting it back on after each shot,
I shot a lot of big game with that combo, including 3 big bull caribou in one day. Here's one of them,
There are still plenty of 412's forsale, like this DR still new in the box,
you just have to look around a bit.
Great guns, very accurate, with many options!!
October 11, 2012, 07:54 PM
Valmets were the deal of the century back in the 80's - and I passed on a few that I now kick myself for
October 13, 2012, 01:07 AM
I've gone through literally dozens of them in the 412/412S Valmets and in 512 Tikkas made in Italy. I used to dabble in them heavily a few years ago.
I still have my original 412S in 12/12 with choke tubes and a Tikka 12/30-06 barrel, plus two scope mounts.
Their weight is getting to be too much for me to haul around, and I might list the set here and on several other forums soon.
These were/are still bargains in good shooting combos. Original barrels are getting hard to find, but the new Lothar Walther barrel sets are excellent, and the sights on the DR barrels are much better than the old folding ones.
OH...by the way...I have some replacement original folding sights, too. (for a price...:D)

I have a Springfield M-6 and a Savage 24. The 24 is 12 gauge over .223 and I mean .223. It was almost imposible to extract when I tried 5.56. I have tried many different kinds of 5.56. Also, even in .223 bullets over 55 grains will keyhole unbelievably. The .223 barrel shoots well with 45 and 50 grain.
October 17, 2012, 12:20 AM
That dural frame Meffert is a great drilling. Meffert was one of the very best makers. :cool::cool:
How much does it weigh?

To Savage there grouse and bear in VT. Not that I have run across a lot but I did get one grouse to flush. And fish and game say there are over 6000 bear.
October 17, 2012, 11:15 PM
We were up there in southern VT a week ago and while I saw no grouse or deer on my walk we did see one further up the road from the car.
There are bears here in CT now! Can you believe that? We never had them here in the past.
We saw a full size black bear along a highway, watching to cross, in NW CT a couple of weeks ago.
November 9, 2012, 02:25 PM
Have never been on this site before but need help with a drilling that is being offered to me for sale from a local collector. Gun: hermann weihrauch drilling
Caliber/gauge: 7x57mm mauser; 16 gauge
Condition: 98%
Manufactured: 1925 to 1935. The estimated retail of this gun is around 6500 but that means what if I have no idea how long this gun will sit in auction. Theres one article about the exact hun titled "I have this old gun" which tells about its condition and history. I am a rare coin dealer and have no idea where to go with something like this. Taking a risk and buying the gun today regardless because I think its very unique and pristine and still opeartes beautifully. But any information on the gun would be greatly appreciated!
November 18, 2012, 11:28 PM
A 7X57 & 16ga (will have short 65mm chambers) shouldn't command that kind of price. I can find good ones, not pristine, with a scope in claw mounts for $2,500-$3,500.
I recently bought a very nice Sauer 3000 LUX game scene engraved circa 1955 in 16ga/70mm chambers and 6.5X57R, scoped with a 6X Hensoldt in Shuler claw mounts for 1/3 what they estimate the auction amount will be for that drilling. Now, the 7X57R drilling might be a sidelock and ornate. Then it could be a far more costly gun.

Hey Luv2 safari, Do you hunt with your drillings??
My old Krieghoff is still putting meat in my freezer for me, i shot this buck a few days ago,
He will be tasty this winter...
November 19, 2012, 12:33 PM
luv2safari - I love to be shocked and that's why I like horror flicks so much.
Sooo... scare me with the price of that gorgeous Hummingbird.
December 1, 2012, 01:25 AM
I sure do hunt with them. My last hunt was for chuckar a few weeks ago.
You know I covet your drilling. :neener:
December 1, 2012, 01:28 AM
I have no idea. He uses it as a display piece at high end gunshows and SCI.
December 1, 2012, 11:54 AM
I've been fooling around with a Savage 24c. It's not as poorly regulated as some specimens out there. The shotgun patterns are a bit patchy but that can be fixed. The.22 barrel is more than accurate enough for small game. My problem with it is seeing the sights in the woods as my eyes are going fast.
December 2, 2012, 09:18 AM
I sure do hunt with them. My last hunt was for chuckar a few weeks ago.

I'm glad they aren't just collecting dust! Waaaaay too many folks buy one, then refuse to hunt with it! I just don't understand that at all!
December 2, 2012, 10:16 AM
My Sauer 12 X 12 X 30.06 is my go to gun! Its a pre- model 3000. It has a Supra Nickel 6 x 43 scope mounted. By the way, I need a turret cap for the scope. Any idea where I might find one?
December 4, 2012, 02:28 PM
Just got back from the lgs with a box of Remington 220 gr RN 30.06 and a box of Win 00 Buck at 1450 fps. Should be just what the Dr. ordered in the big swamp this weekend hunting hogs and deer. Turns the Drilling into Thor's Hammer!

Got a couple of Savage 24's and an old german hammer drilling in 16x16x9.3x72R
December 5, 2012, 07:51 AM
Savage 24V: .223/20 gauge (the favorite)
Savage 24F: .223/12 gauge (screw-in chokes)
Both rifle barrels very accurate (MOA with irons); both shotgun patterns quite poor.
Looking for a 24 in .22LR/20 gauge.
Headed over to Gunbroker to see if any Valmet 412s are available.
December 28, 2012, 10:03 PM
I love my savage 357 over 20. Just a great shooting gun and quick on target.

March 2, 2013, 12:26 PM
i am way late on this thread ...
I have been thinking about a practical survival gun that would work for my family. Mostly a rifle for getting small game. I looked for Savage 24's on their Web page, but they appear to be gone.
Savage seems to have resurrected the idea with their "new" Savage 42.
So if anybody has one of these ... please post some feedback. I'm not sure why the 24 model is gone and the 42 has re-appeared ... but there must be a reason. I like the option for the 22WMR ammo, and my understanding is that the 410 would be OK for birds like pheasant, quail etc. (I've never hunted with 410). One big attraction with this rifle is that it is woman-friendly and kid-friendly ... most of my family is of the female persuasion.
May 16, 2013, 09:37 PM
I would not buy the new 24 series. It is well worth it to find an older one, as they are better made and just awesome guns
May 16, 2013, 10:14 PM
I picked up a #24 about 10 years ago at a hardware store, gave $40.00 for it. Its a .22LR/410, shoots good too ! Mine is an older model, has a "button" on the RT side of the receiver, for selector switch. Stock and fore end are beautiful wood, needed some TLC when I brought it home, about 4 hours of hand rubbed lemon oil later, really beautiful wood. I've been offered $300.00 for mine, no sale !;)

MIAMI GARDENS, FLA. - Football is and always has been the greatest team game in sports. But there are select precious times when the stars shine brightest.
Quarterback Tajh Boyd. Wide receiver Sammy Watkins. Their names, their likenesses, their accomplishments will live on in Clemson lore for years upon years to come.
Boyd and Watkins gave their fans one final thrill - maybe the greatest thrill they've had since the last time Clemson won the Orange Bowl 32 years ago, and that earned a national championship - in the No. 12-ranked Tigers' 40-35 comeback conquest of No. 7 Ohio State Friday at Sun Life Stadium.
For Boyd, it's official; for Watkins, it's academic. They put a stamp on their Clemson careers with perfection: individual records meshed with team glory.
"I couldn't pick a better way to go out as a senior," Boyd said. "And these guys right here, these are the guys I play for. What a special way to go out."
Boyd quarterbacked his team to a 32nd victory, reaching his goal of matching Rodney Williams as the school's all-time greatest winners. He did so with 505 total yards of offense (31-for-40, 378 yards; 20 rush, 127 yards) and six total touchdowns.
Watkins? Well, the nation discovered stats don't do him justice: he's one of those "you've got to see him to believe him" wunderkinds.
Put it this way: it takes a lot to render offensive coordinator Chad Morris speechless.
Sixteen catches for 227 yards and two touchdowns are a lot.
"Sammy is..." Morris said, pausing to grasp for the right words, "golly, what a great performance tonight."
As a junior, Watkins politely declined all inquiries on whether this was his final game in college. But it's clear Watkins will soon announce he's off to the NFL Draft, where he figures to be a top-ten selection based on nights like Friday.
Watkins broke the Orange Bowl receiving yardage record, the Clemson single-game receptions record, and became the school's leader in catches and touchdown passes.
"I went out with a bang, but our offense played great putting me in a great situation," Watkins said. "Coach Morris is one of the great play-callers I know. I would say he definitely used me tonight. Everything I had in me, he got out of me."
In the second-to-last BCS bowl game ever, No. 12 Clemson picked up its first BCS triumph, and as he took the podium for ESPN's postgame show, head coach Dabo Swinney couldn't resist illustrating a related point.
"Listen, two years ago, we got our butts kicked on this field, and it has been a journey to get back," Swinney yelled, referring to the 2012 Orange Bowl defeat. "We're 22-4 since that night, and we are the first team from the state of South Carolina to ever win a BCS game!"
It was return fire for South Carolina coach Steve Spurrier's "That state championship ain't bad either" comment Wednesday after beating Wisconsin in the Capital One Bowl.
South Carolina, indeed, has beaten Clemson five straight. But in the last three instances, Clemson responded by beating Virginia Tech in the ACC Championship, LSU in the Chick-Fil-A Bowl and now the Buckeyes in the Orange Bowl.
As such, Clemson (11-2) is the only team in the nation to defeat top 10 teams in consecutive bowl games the past two seasons.
The Buckeyes (12-2) hung in there just enough to have a chance at the end, but they turned it over on four of their final five possessions. Linebackers Spencer Shuey and Stephone Anthony each picked off Braxton Miller in the final 3:12 to seal the Tigers' triumph.
"Two great offenses tonight," defensive tackle Grady Jarrett said, "and we made plays when we needed it to win the game."
What fun it was for the announced crowd of 72,080 to watch what has become the new age of college football: a mockery of defense. Both Rose Bowl teams got to 20 points, both Sugar Bowl teams reached 30, both Fiesta Bowl teams went over 40 points, and the Orange Bowl nearly ran out of fireworks exploding in the sky after every touchdown.
In the end, it was tight end Stanton Seckinger (Porter-Gaud) bookending the Tigers' 2013 season with game-winning touchdown catches. He did the deed Aug. 31 vs. Georgia, and against OSU when the whole field rolled right, he went left and grabbed an uncovered 5-yarder from Boyd with 6:16 to go, the game's final points.
Boyd threw for five touchdowns, the seventh time he did that, and also scampered for a 49-yard score, besting his previous long run by 22 yards.
There were four lead changes. Clemson led 20-9 in the second quarter, but Ohio State scored 20 consecutive points to grab a nine-point advantage with 5:50 remaining in the third quarter.
"Our whole goal was to get this thing to the fourth quarter," Swinney said. "We knew Ohio State was going to make a run, they were going to fight with everything they've got. We felt like if we got it to the fourth quarter, we'd win it."
Then the Sammy Watkins Show commenced. Following Ohio State's dropped punt, an unforgivable gaffe to swing momentum, Boyd rolled to his right, flicked his wrist, and Ohio State's Doran Grant could do nothing but enjoy the best view in the house of Watkins' leaping touchdown grab, his second of the night and 12th of the season.
Junior receiver Martavis Bryant, rumored to be playing his final game in a Clemson uniform, nestled two touchdowns on short fade passes, both giving or extending Clemson's lead.
Turnovers, a major bugaboo in Clemson losses, favored the Tigers. They scored 14 points off turnovers and yielded none.
The refs were a regular interruption, calling 21 combined penalties for 204 yards (Clemson: 15 for 144) with several other flags declined or picked up.
Clemson was 7 for 13 on third down; Ohio State went 2 for 13.
Ohio State running back Carlos Hyde carried 25 times for 113 yards and a touchdown, his 10th consecutive game with more than 100 yards on the ground. However, Miller went backwards almost more often than not (18 official rushes, 35 yards, including five sacks), and Clemson actually outrushed the vaunted Buckeyes' rushers 198-193.
"Ohio State is the third-leading rushing team in the nation. So, you know, 190-something is still not good, but we'll take it," safety Robert Smith (Woodland) said. "They're going to run the ball. That's what they do, just like Georgia Tech.
"But I'm just proud of my team coming out, getting the first BCS win in the state of South Carolina. So that's real big."
Clemson is almost certain to complete the year in the top 10 of the final Associated Press poll, which would be the school's first such feat since 1990.
"I really think more than anything it's a respect thing, letting the nation know Clemson is a great football program," defensive end Corey Crawford said. "We can play with anybody in the country."

WILKES-BARRE - Former Penn State assistant football coach Jerry Sandusky is maintaining his innocence but told a northeastern Pennsylvania newspaper that he is "trying to learn from" his circumstance as he focuses on an appeal of his conviction on child sex abuse charges.
The (Wilkes-Barre) Citizens' Voice said Sandusky sent a handwritten note from his western Pennsylvania prison cell declining an interview request, saying his attorneys have told him to stay quiet.
Jurors in central Pennsylvania last summer convicted 68-year-old Sandusky of 45 of 48 counts involving 10 victims, and he was sentenced to 30 to 60 years in state prison. A hearing is slated Jan. 10 in Bellefonte on his post-trial motions, the first step in the appeals process.
"Right now our focus is on the appeal," Sandusky wrote from his cell in the State Correctional Institution at Greene in Waynesburg, 50 miles south of Pittsburgh. "There is much to learn, issues and information not presented. Nobody who covered the case and reported it had the time or took the time to study the allegations, the accusers, the inconsistency, and the methods. Justice and fairness were not a focus."
Sandusky closed the note on an inspirational note similar to his 2000 autobiography, "Touched: The Jerry Sandusky Story," and letters he wrote to youth participants in his Second Mile charity, including some who later accused him of abuse.
"I'm trying to learn from, grow from, and endure the struggle and circumstances," Sandusky wrote. His mantra, he said, is "ENDURE," with each letter taking on spiritual and motivational significance.
The Department of Corrections said Sandusky eats all of his meals in his cell, and is allowed a television and a radio but cannot watch violent movies or read books and magazines with graphic content. He can worship, but cannot go to the prison chapel, and can see visitors, but can't touch them, and his only time away from his cell is for exercise - one hour per day, five days per week - and for showers, three times per week.
