Graduate Certificate in Military Child and Families Education (Credit)
Children of military families confront significant obstacles to quality education due to frequent moves (an average of 9 moves during their K-12 years), family stress attributable to deployments, and in some cases the loss or serious disability of a parent.
The ODU Military Child and Families certificate program will provide educators with specialized expertise in meeting the academic, social and emotional needs of military connected P-12 students. Teachers, counselors and school leaders in this program will take 12 credit hours of lecture and service learning work that will actively engage them in:
- building the foundational research-based knowledge and skills that are requisite for identifying, understanding and meeting the needs of military children and families,
- collecting and analyzing school-wide, classroom and individual assessment data to identify and prioritize the specific support needs of their military connected students and families; and
- applying their foundational and assessment knowledge and skills to design and implement research-based, flexible, adaptable and assessable programs that meet the identified needs of their military connected students and families in order to help ease transition, facilitate adjustment, and improve academic and social development outcomes for these students

It was this time a year ago the Harrisburg School District declared itself a distressed district. A year later, the chief recovery officer filed a status report that shows promise financially and academically.
Gene Veno can't believe it has been nearly a year since he was hired to help right the ship for Harrisburg schools. The district's the chief recovery officer filed a 30-page report Tuesday that detailed improvements made and areas that still need work.
A few highlights depend on an audit report that could give the district $9 to $11 million in funds. Veno explained the district's expenditures were not accurately reported in the past, skewing the numbers. As CRO, Veno can only recommend action to the superintendent and school board.
In his update, Veno believes the school board would not have to raise school taxes for the 2013-2014 budget. He added that taxes may not have to be raised through the duration of the next 54 months of the recovery plan.
Although teachers and staff were asked to take a .05 percent wage reduction, Veno believes the school board could revisit that action and adjust it accordingly once the audit is completed.
"The board will look at the possibilities to do with that surplus," Veno said.
On the academic side, Veno said there needs to be areas of improvement in classroom performance, but there are steps to help educators and students at home.
The district hired a chief financial officer in August to manage the day-to-day business. Veno said this has and will allow principals in the school to conduct more classroom walkthroughs and have a more hands-on approach with teachers and students.
The reported stated the district's cyber school, Cougar Academy, is near its 60-student capacity with 45 students currently enrolled and climbing.
Veno said the report offers a positive outlook on the district's future and believes the plan is on track for recovery over the next few years. Noting the city government's Harrisburg Strong plan waiting to be finalized, Veno believes both recovery plans lay a framework for a rebuilding community.
"The strong plan can't be successful unless you have a solid recovery plan with an education proponent for this community," Veno said. "So, hand-in-hand it's a great time for the community. It's coming together and I think 2014 is going to begin to show even more positiveness for the district and even for the city."

Kaufman enters no contest pleas in fatal rollover case
A Cheyenne man charged in the fatal rollover this past January that killed two Scottsbluff teenagers entered no contest pleas Monday morning before Goshen County District Judge Keith Kautz and is now back in the custody of the Goshen County Sheriff.
22 year old Ethan Kaufman pleaded to two counts of aggravated homicide by a vehicle in the deaths of Alexis Wheeler and Hallie Anderson. He also entered no contest pleas to charges of drunk driving causing serious bodily injury regarding two of the passengers, 19 year old Tyler Hill of Lyman and Stetson Allen of Morrill.
Goshen County Attorney Patrick Korell said that evidence and witness statements during Kaufman's preliminary hearing indicated the defendant was traveling 99 miles per hour, was legally intoxicated and was texting just prior to the January 9th accident on Highway 92 just west of Lyman past the Wyoming border.
His attorney, Public Defender Eric Palen, argued that Kaufman should remain free on a $50,000 bond because he had observed all the conditions of his bond agreement since the January accident. But Korrell cited the seriousness of the crimes, and the fact the sentence would likely include incarceration in telling the court that Kaufman should be in jail. Judge Kautz said the burden of the court had shifted a little bit with Kaufman's no contest pleas and revoked Kaufman's bond.
KNo sentencing date has been set as of yet but Kaufman could receive up to 60 years in prison.

BRIDGEVILLE, Del. - The brand new Goodwill Job Resource Center in Bridgeville is now up and running. Just about two weeks after the Grand Opening, they're already in the process of helping 20 people find work. But now, they're focusing their efforts on a specific group of folks who need the help most.
55-year-old Valerie Dean is a single mother of a now successful 33-year-old daughter. It wasn't easy, but she struggled through it.
"After she graduated from high school and went to college, that was really rough. I found myself then working three jobs," she said.
Even now, she still needs help finding work, which is why she came to Beyond Jobs -- a Goodwill program just for single moms. Valerie admits she could have used this years ago.
"Back then, I had a little bit of support. When you have agencies around, use them," she said.
This program isn't just about job placement. When a single mom walks through the doors, they get a private one-to-one session - expert advice on a long-term plan for the whole family. It's about thriving in and outside the workplace.
"We are noticing that here in Delaware and Delaware County, that single mothers are twice as likely to be unemployed than married mothers," Bridgeville Job Resource Center Manager John Rodriguez said.
If you're a single mom worried about the future, you're not alone. In fact 26% of all children now grow up in families headed by single mothers according to the U.S. Census Bureau.
So take it from Valerie. "I just want to say, the help is here - use it. Use it because that really means a lot," she said.
Beyond Jobs will help you design an individualized plan that includes financial education, career development planning, family strengthening services, early education and child care assistance and connections to healthy food and nutrition initiatives. For more information on Goodwill's Beyond Jobs program, call 302-554-3556. To learn more about other services offered by Goodwill's Job Resource Centers, and for a list of locations, click here.

Eagles fall at home to league-rival Tuscola
Fri. November 01, 2013 at 11:00 p.m. | By John Domansky

EAST FLAT ROCK — During the first half, it looked like the East Henderson Eagles were going to put up their first win of the season on Senior Night.
The Tuscola Mountaineers (8-2, 5-1 WNC Athletic Conference) had other ideas, as they pounded out 38 unanswered points, on their way to a convincing 45-7 victory over the host Eagles (0-10, 0-6 WNCAC) on Friday night.
"I told them at halftime that we were a better team and played good football in the first half," said Eagles head coach Steve Whitt.
Bryce Myers (five TDs) started the scoring in the closely contested first half, when he popped loose up the middle from 28 yards out to give the Mountaineers a quick 7-0 lead.
A hustling Keyon Pippen put the Eagles in prime scoring position, as he scooped up a Woody Cornwell fumble and rumbled to the Mountaineers' 5.
Three plays later, Aaron Moody connected with a wide-open Jesse Rogers in the end zone to tie the game at 7-7.
"I know the scoreboard doesn't show it, but our defense made some great plays," said Whitt.
The air quickly came out of the stadium, as Myers took Cornwell's handoff 99 yards to the house, giving the Mountaineers a 13-7 lead.
A fired-up Eagles defense stopped two potential Mountaineer scoring drives in the second quarter, both deep in their own territory.
Moody hooked up with Rogers again late in the second quarter, giving the Eagles a first-and-goal from the 9 and a chance to go into the locker room with a lead.
But a shotgun snap sailed well over Moody's head and he was dropped back at the 33-yard line.
In the second half, the Mountaineers gave the Eagles a steady dose of Myers, as he scored on runs of 44 and 23 yards, as well as a 59-yard kickoff return.
"We are going to fight to the end. We are not going to back down any challenge. I love my kids," said Whitt.
The stage is now set for next Friday night's season finale, as the Eagles travel to West Henderson, with both teams looking for their first win of the season.

(11/19/12) - More than two years after a deadly car accident, there is resolution in the courtroom, but the pain continues for the families and friends of the victim - and the man going to prison.
A 26-year-old woman died in the Saginaw County accident and her boyfriend, who was driving the SUV, was criminally charged.
He was sentenced to prison Monday, in a case that has brought plenty of sorrow for two families.
This crash happened in April 2010, at an intersection where people who live nearby tell us there have been other bad accidents there. But in this one, the pain continues.
"You get that call at 8 o'clock at night, you never think it's going to happen to you," said Jedd Heinz.
It did happen to Heinz back on April 16, 2010. His daughter, 26-year-old Nicole Mika was killed in an accident at the corner of Swan Creek and Miller Roads in James Township.
Jeremy Nachtman, Nicole's boyfriend, was driving the SUV, with Mika in the passenger seat, as it pulled out in front of a pick-up truck. He plead no contest to driving with a suspended license causing death and injuries.
Mika's 4-year-old son, along with three other people, were injured in the crash.
"To lose any child is devastating, let alone almost losing my grandchild at the same time," Heinz said.
Nachtman apologized.
"I know you are angry," he said. "It was a tragic accident, I didn't try to pull out in front of someone and try to get someone killed. I'm sorry for your guys loss. I lost out that day too. My daughter was in the car, my wife is having seizures, I'm trying to raise, we have twelve kids together, I want to go get my time done and over with, because I was wrong."
Nachtman was sentenced to at least four years in prison, leaving two of his sons, and his wife, in tears.
"My life revolves around our children. I think that's the only thing that is going to get me by," said Nachtman's wife, Victoria.
Heinz says memories of his daughter help him get by.
"To go through something like that, there is never a healing process that can cure it, you have to live with it for the rest of your life," he said.
While Nachtman was sentenced to at least four years in prison, the maximum sentence is set at 30 years.

Victory by songwriters and publishers in federal court may end up costing consumers more to stream music and make it harder for online-music services to compete.
A court ruling upholds the Internet radio service's motion that it's allowed to play all works covered by ASCAP without restriction.
The Internet's biggest radio service goes terrestrial with a deal to buy a South Dakota station, which will shave some royalties but serves more as a shot over the bow of copyright holders.

The vast majority of 3G and 4G USB modems handed out by mobile operators to their customers are manufactured by a handful of companies and run insecure software, according to two security researchers from Russia.
Researchers Nikita Tarakanov and Oleg Kupreev analyzed the security of 3G/4G USB modems obtained from Russian operators for the past several months. Their findings were presented Thursday at the Black Hat Europe 2013 security conference in Amsterdam.
[ Learn how to secure your systems with the Web Browser Deep Dive PDF special report and Security Central newsletter, both from InfoWorld. ]
Most 3G/4G modems used in Russia, Europe, and probably elsewhere in the world, are made by Chinese hardware manufacturers Huawei and ZTE, and are branded with the mobile operators' logos and trademarks, Tarakanov said. Because of this, even if the research was done primarily on Huawei modems from Russian operators, the results should be relevant in other parts of the world as well, he said.
Tarakanov said that they weren't able to test baseband attacks against the Qualcomm chips found inside the modems because it's illegal in Russia to operate your own GSM base station if you're not an intelligence agency or a telecom operator. "We'll probably have to move to another country for a few months to do it," he said.
There's still a lot to investigate in terms of the hardware's security. For example, the SoC (system on a chip) used in many modems has Bluetooth capability that is disabled from the firmware, but it might be possible to enable it, the researcher said.
For now, the researchers tested the software preloaded on the modems and found multiple ways to attack it or to use it in attacks.
For one, it's easy to make an image of the USB modem's file system, modify it and write it on the modem again. There's a tool available from Huawei to do modem backup and restore, but there are also free tools that support modems from other manufacturers, Tarakanov said.
Malware running on the computer could detect the model and version of the active 3G modem and could write an image with malicious customizations to it using such tools. That modem would then compromise any computer it's used on.
The modem contains the installer for an application that gets installed on the computer, as well as the necessary drivers for different OSes. The application allows the user to stop, start and manage the Internet connection established through the modem.
The configuration files for the installed application, as well as those of the application installer stored on the modem, are in plain text and can be easily modified. One setting in the configuration files defines what DNS servers the modem should use for the Internet connection.
An attacker could change those entries to servers controlled by the attacker, Tarakanov said. This would give the attacker the ability to direct users to rogue websites when they're trying to visit legitimate ones using the modem connection.
While the application installer itself cannot be directly modified to load malware because it's a signed executable, there are some entries in its configuration file that can be used for this purpose.
For example, many configuration files had paths to antivirus installers and an option of whether to install those programs or not, Tarakanov said. The researcher said that he never found an antivirus installer shipped with the USB modems he tested, but the feature was there.

GOODYEAR, Ariz. (AP) - Ryan Raburn hit a two-run home run off Homer Bailey to lead the Cleveland Indians to its second straight win over the Cincinnati Reds, 4-0 Friday.
Lonnie Chisenhall, who is trying to hold on to the third base job in Cleveland, walked to set up the Raburn's second-inning drive off Bailey, who tossed his second career no-hitter last season.
Indians likely closer Jon Axford walked one and struck out two in a scoreless inning.
Cleveland scored two runs of Robert Stephenson in his first major league spring appearance. Stephenson was the Reds first pick in the 2011 draft.
Jay Bruce and Ryan Ludwick hit consecutive singles in the fourth off Josh Tomlin for two of the Reds' three hits.
Reds' closer Aroldis Chapman struck out all three batters he faced.

He pursued an ambitious agenda to reform the nation's health system, with an emphasis on redressing social inequality. He is perhaps best known for his work in introducing a program of comprehensive national health insurance, known as Seguro Popular, which expanded access to health care for tens of millions of previously uninsured Mexicans.
Dr. Frenk was the founding director-general of the National Institute of Public Health in Mexico, one of the leading institutions of health education and research in the developing world. In 1998, Dr. Frenk joined the World Health Organization (WHO) as executive director in charge of Evidence and Information for Policy, WHO's first-ever unit explicitly charged with developing a scientific foundation for health policy to achieve better outcomes.
Most recently, he served as a senior fellow in the global health program of the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation and as president of the Carso Health Institute in Mexico City. He is chair of the board of the Institute for Health Metrics and Evaluation at the University of Washington.
Dr. Frenk holds a medical degree from the National University of Mexico, as well as a Masters of Public Health and a joint doctorate in Medical Care Organization and in Sociology from the University of Michigan. He has been awarded three honorary doctorates.
He is a member of the U.S. Institute of Medicine, the American Academy of Arts and Sciences, and the National Academy of Medicine of Mexico.
In addition to his scholarly works, which include more than 130 articles in academic journals, as well as many books and book chapters, he has written two best-selling novels for youngsters explaining the functions of the human body.
In September of 2008, Dr. Frenk received the Clinton Global Citizen Award for changing "the way practitioners and policy makers across the world think about health."

From BeerAdvocate magazine Issue #65 (June 2012):
LOOK: Hazed-over straw, epic head retention
SMELL: Nougat, orange pith, boozy alcohol, white cherries, grassy, almonds, white pepper, mandarin oranges, bread crust
TASTE: Smooth, sublimely creamy, full bodied, loaf of bread, Grape Nuts, fermented wheat twang, bitter, boozy, chalky, inner sweetness, lemon peel, husky, melon rind, peppery, rose water, yeast, dried grassy finish
Very bold without getting in our faces too much, this is a massive ale, but that's expected for this style … a style that is still being defined. Cheers to Marin Brewing Co. for not hopping the crap out of this Wheatwine; the massive malt backbone is the showcase from the first sip to the last drop.

Appearance Beautiful florescent orange color with a good and all-white head. This looks like a shiny Abbey Tripel with tons of sediment.
Smell The authentic wheat aroma is balanced by a very significant hop compliment. This is like nothing that Ive ever smelled before. The yeast is not of the weizen variety; it is more like wheat that you would find growing in a Midwest field.
The luscious fruits are soaked in booze. The green cherries, oranges, big watermelon, and cantaloupe are very fresh and pickled.
Taste I didnt taste this until it warmed almost to room temperature. This is a very unique and complex ale.
The wonderful wheat flavors are unabashed, and the hop balance is big enough to get noticed. The fruits calm down a bit from the nose, but they are there as well. Theres also some sugary sweetness to this one, making it one of the most complex beers that Ive ever had.
Mouthfeel Full-bodied and definitely not a German weizen. The alcohol sting was a little much but otherwise this was a mouthful.
Drinkability The effective balancing made this a rare find: a big, extreme brew that went down easily.
Comments What a score! I love tasting different and exotic beers, and this one surely fit the bill. This was sent to me by mickeymac, and he couldnt have picked a better offering.

Hooray. After having those two Ridgeways, it was a relief to drink this. Pours cloudy amber-orange. Big off-white head. Caramel, dates, figs, wheat, honey, and bread/dough in the nose. Hops and dough in the taste, with that nice barleywine caramel mixing nicely with the wheat. Citrus and sugar in the finish. The alcohol is well-masked. A great beer.

2002 Vintage here. Appearance: Deep orange slight cloudiness with a massive cream colored head that is quite resilient. lacing stays in thick patches appearance is all bueno here. Aroma: Doughy from the yeast, has nutty tones around the edges, with a massive wheat malt driven alcohol nose very full. Taste: Nuts, cream, fruit undertones, hop bitterness leaving it's mark in full, a massive wave of flavors that have to be picked apart this is a tough one here. I found this beer while living in SoCal but never gave it a shot, so here I am well over a year trying it a gain I thought a triple wheat sounded interesting and boy was I right, with a bready belgian yeast sharp tones of wheat malt this beer is incredible still after the aging process I am currently searching for a fresh sample to compare so send it my way. Overall Mouthfeel: Syrupy oily resins line the palate but there is still a smooth crispness that can be enjoyed in the winter or summer awesome. Drinkability: I must say so much flavor makes this a bit overwhelming so send me another bottle so I can have two.

Pours an orange-amber in the glass with a 3 finger head that slowly melts to an impressive sticky lacing.
Aromas of fruits...citrus orange...and sweet malt.
Mouth is met with a sweet orange marmalade and then soft grapefruit hops.
Mouthfeel is rich and creamy...aftertaste a slow fading of the tastes with only slight drying.
Wow...Triple Wheat?
My first Wheat Wine and I love it.
Oh yeah...while I might not notice the alcohol in the taste so much, I definitely feel it's effects.

No prior biases, thanks awaisen from California. Good aroma, left by C hop. Well hopped taste, good white head. Very smooth drink of wheat, not very complex, very present orange citrus. The alcohol was high and hitting you at the end. Good full mouthfeel. Not too sweet, but well malted very drinkable.

Served in a generic tulip glass. Rosy, tangerine body with a dense but small off-white head, receding to a thin but persistent band ringing a film of pinhole-bubbles. Sharp angled lacing with thin but sticky legs. Clarity is adequate, yet slightly foggy...
Aroma is surprisingly restrained (at any temperature) - floral, grainy, and sweet with a bit of nail polish scent from the alcohol.
The flavor is much stronger - rich malt liquor, vinuousness, dark wheat, flour, and raw sugar on the palate - bleeding together and proceeded quickly by a wave of bitterness and (moreso) ester-laden alcohol notes (hints of scotch, sherry, and prunes). The finish is sweet and pungent with another wave of grain. Potent, but a bit rough. Somewhat syrupy in flavor. A touch of spice too...
Medium-bodied, very lightly tannic and/or astringent; a bit prickly from the synthesis of alcohol, carbonation, and phenols.
Rather sweet and "raw" tasting. My first example of the style - but if this is indicative I would recommend sticking to barleywine...

2003 vintage, *2450* from a 22oz bomber. The initial pour delivers a surprisingly clear, deep golden body with the exception that particulate can clearly be seen rising and falling amidst its turbulent, effervescent carbonation. A second pour, however, changes all that and it takes on the haze normally associated with the style. The foamy, bright-white head holds exceptionally well and leaves solid sheets of lace about the glass. The nose is yeasty and fruity with a touch of pepper, citrusy with hops, and backed by a wheatish malt. The body is medium-full (or is it full-medium?) and the natural, effervescent carbonation bristles on the tongue. Its flavor is bold and rich with a slap of lightly-tart fruit and yeast at the outset, followed by a luxurious wheat-based maltiness. A peppery spiciness appears towards the swallow; and it finishes dry but with a note of sweet, sugar-cookie-dough-like malt that lingers amidst a gentle spiciness from the alcohol. It's an impressive brew; yet it may be slightly over-done as the alcohol becomes obvious even within a twelve ounce serving (cutting down on its drinkability). Still, this is an excellent beer to enjoy while relaxing in the backyard on a cool summer evening as the sun sets. Recommended.

Poured from the 22oz bottle into my Duvel tulip glass. A darker golden body is topped by about an inch of sturdy, creamy white head that leaves minimal lacing on the glass. Not a whole lot of aroma - light caramel malt, a touch of dark fruit, some grassy hops, and a generous whiff of alcohol. Palate is light mellow wheat and malt, becoming sweeter towards the finish. A moderate hop profile holds notes of sweet plum, grass, and a touch of pine. Body is velvety smooth, with very light, mellow carbonation - just beautiful. Although the high alcohol content makes it a tricky proposition to tackle an entire bottle, this is a highly enjoyable beer. Find a friend to share it with.

Pours a clear apple juice color with a copper hue, minimal off white head, and some carb action.
Has a sweet banana/caramel malt smell with a slight citrus hops aroma.
Moderately/heavy sweet/acidic/bitter, nutty, and roasted caramel malt taste with resin/orange and some grapefruit hops flavor.
Medium/full bodied, dry and syrupy texture, soft almost flat carbonation, and a metallic/alcoholic finish.
One of the better products from Marin, the balance is allright from start to finish, and the bottle states 9.7%.

Pours dark orange honey color with a thick white head. Very clear with a very "orange" color.
Delicate but pleasant orange blossum floral nose with nice hints of orange marmalade. Nice assertive sugars in the nose.
Bold and assertive ripe peach, apricot and belgian malt flavors. Great fruit compote flavors of prunes, plums, stone fruits and burnt carmel and rich sugared coffee/carmel. A sweet carmel front palate with a more complex cooked fruit back palate and finish.
Nice character and balance with a medium to medium/heavy body. Very assertive flavors. Creamed coffee and carmel in the longer finish. Nice. Perhaps drinks a bit sweet for some but tastes of quality and character, nonetheless. I almost see this as more of a dessert beer than a "food" beer.

(22oz bottle). Pours slightly hazy with a pillow-top off-white foam. Nice carbonation. Aroma has some cardboard, grape? or something fruity, grass and something that smells like horseradish. Taste is sweet with some light hop bitterness. The beer is a bit hot-I think that's where the horseradish or whatever it is is coming from. Medium bodied with a slick texture. Smooth, but hot. A decent beer with some nice flavors going on.

Pours a crystal clear golden orange color with a nice thick white head on top that lasts a fair time. Huge malty aromas with some big fruitiness as well. Possibly some grapefruit/oranges and some darker/sweeter fruits with a nice vinous quality. Sweet malty sweetness not unlike what you would get from a barley wine but not as heavy. Complex fruitiness like a BW as well but on the lighter side as well with some lemon/orange/grapefruit flavors as well as some slightly tart grape/vinous quality. The alcohol makes itself known only in its warming qualities. Velvety smooth and very creamy and very easy to drink due to its wheat beer lighness. This "Wheatwine" is a lot like a barley wine but light in color, body, and types of flavors. It still has all the great complexity of flavors but lighter fruits, body, etc. Somewhat like somparing a dubbel and a tripel. Lighter in body and color but equally as complex and flavorful. This is one great brew and I will have to get a few to cellar.

2004 vintage, *2513* from a 22oz bomber. Appearance was a see-through amber color with a lot of fine carbonation and a nice compact white head that eventually died down to a lace-less ring.
The aroma was quite wheaty with some honey and sherry notes. As it warmed the alcohol fumes really started coming off in waves. Some light fruitiness, also - maybe raspberries. Zero hops.
The taste of this smooth, full brew was loaded with malts and sported a fruitiness comparable to a doppelbock. Hops presence was decidedly absent but not the alcohol, which lent a serious pop to the finish of this brew. The feel was rather thick and almost syrupy. In a word; slick.
Star Brew Triple Wheat Ale had me thinking of a barleywine minus the hops or a bruising doppelbock. Tasty, but one would do for a night.

Appearance- Pours a bright, golden, amber. Quite clear for a wheat. Looks a tad like honey. Small, creamy head with little retention and nolacing.
Smaell- Like a wheat, only sweet instead of sour or "wheaty". Weird. Some nice citrusy hops,
Taste- Wow. this stuff is potent for a wheat. Strong, malty-wheaty back bone with some spiciness to it. Some light fruits (yellow apple, citrus fruits, etc) in there to. Not bad at all.
Mouthfeel- The mouthfeel is medium with good CO2.
Drinkability- Very nice..

22 received as a great extra in a recent trade with AndrewK... thanks brother... Your generosity will not go unnoticed... Poured into my Delirium goblet.
2 finger white head dies back quickly leaving no lacing and no real cap.. the brew is a very pretty orange.
Nose has some pretty nice citrus hoppiness.. pale maltiness with some subtle spicy EtOH.
Flavor is pretty good.. again some citric hops.. the pale malts have a background honey essence that combines well with some yeasty esters... I think it could probably use a bit more bitterness and a touch more raspy hops to balance the malts.. but it is still very nice... as it warms it sorta reminds me of a lightly hopped BSPA... I am digging this one.... Body is medium with a lite yet ever present carbonation.
I have been wanting to try this one ever since I learned about the style... This is more my kind of wheat wine... I like some hops and not the overwhelming sweetness and esters that gather with some of the other attempts.
Thanks again Andrew... I'll be hooking you up as soon as I take care of a few other commitments.

This beer is a classic example of temperature making all the difference. There was nothing especially outstanding about the nose or look on the pour. It was golden, clear with subtle hop and alcohol in the nose. Tasting it cold, there was nothing to write home about. As it warmed it was crisp clean and boozy with some vanilla in the aftertaste. The malts and alcohol dominate I hate to say like a malt liquor but this is what it reminded me of. A rare beer style that should be experienced- not my cup of tea but a good buzz for trying.

ruddy brown color with a smooth head of white that quickly fades and leaves behind only token lacing that is really hard to pick up at all.
aroma is earthy, hints of honey, bready notes, touches of light grass and a pear like fruit note. nothing really coming out at me as being terribly strong. flavor was somewhat similar with a light earthy taste and a smooth and even profile, but just nothing really breaking through on me as being out of the ordinary. light grape flavor in the finish with a honey like flavor left on the palate.

Pours a cloudy golden amber color with a 1 finger white head that recedes to some lacing on the glass. Smells lemony with some wheat aspects.
Taste is much better than I remember from the first time I had it. Lemon character is nicely present, with a nice general citric character. Wheat is also nicely present but not overwhelming. Alcohol does show itself, but serves to give the body a little boost. A touch of toffee in the background. Seems to finish with some hops on the tongue. Nice.
Mouthfeel is nice and warming, with a relatively rich but not too heavy body.
Drinkability is definitely decent for such a beer.
Highly recommended. A unique style and one I wouldn't mind seeing some more examples of. And to think, I was wary of trying this one again.

CATEGORIES MoviesComedy legends Martin Short and Catherine O'Hara both jumped at the chance to work with iconic filmmaker Tim Burton again on his new stop-motion animated film "Frankenweenie." O'Hara first collaborated with Burton in the '80s on "Beetlejuice" and "The Nightmare Before Christmas," while Short worked with him on 1996's "Mars Attacks."
This time around, Burton kept both of the actors busy in his heartwarming tale of a grieving boy named Victor who brings his dog Sparky back to life. In addition to voicing Victor's loving parents, Mr. and Mrs. Frankenstein, Short and O'Hara played the scheming Mayor Burgermeister (Short), Victor's creepy schoolmate Weird Girl (O'Hara), Victor's equally creepy schoolmate Nassor (Short) and Victor's overbearing gym teacher, known simply as Gym Teacher (O'Hara).
We sat down with Short and O'Hara in Toronto recently, and chatted about everything from bringing pets back from the dead to what it was like working with Burton again.

An Orono podiatrist is on the cusp of a technological breakthrough with a new medical instrument — an electronic tuning fork — that he's developing with assistance from students and staff at the University of Maine's Advanced Manufacturing Center.
Tuning forks are considered one of the most accurate measures of human sensitivity to touch, and are commonly used by physicians to diagnose early signs of diabetic peripheral neuropathy, or damaged or deteriorating nerves in the feet of diabetics. The condition all too often can lead to foot ulcers and eventual foot amputation, according to Orono resident Dr. Todd O'Brien, a podiatric surgeon at a Health Access Network practice and Penobscot Valley Hospital in Lincoln, Maine.
Tuning forks, however, are subjective in application, O'Brien explains, since the person administering the tuning fork test and the patient work together to estimate the time in which the patient loses awareness of the diminishing vibrations.
O'Brien's prototype electronic tuning fork removes at least half of the guesswork. The user of the device presses an actuation button while in contact with the patient's skin. This simultaneously starts the vibrations and a built-in timer. The user then releases the button when the patient indicates they can no longer feel the vibrations thereby stopping the timer. The amount of time elapsed is how long the patient was able to sense the vibrations. The user then reads the time elapsed on an LED display on the device. It standardizes the procedure, says O'Brien, who has applied for a provisional patent on the device and has begun testing a prototype at his practice.
"It's kind of taking this old-fashioned device and basically upgrading it with 21st century components," he says. "What I hope it will be able to do is screen patients more accurately to see if they are developing neuropathy."
Early detection of diminishing foot sensitivity, he says, can allow remedial intervention such as special shoes, an insert or other foot-care options. Foot sensitivity affects an individual's proprioception, or neurological awareness of the position of parts of the body, including the feet, which affects balance. Identifying a loss of foot sensitivity can indicate a predisposition to falling, an affliction that has spawned a whole cottage industry devoted to the problem, O'Brien says.
"If you can identify someone who is prone to falling, you can recommend training programs," he says. "Beyond that, it's just a better version of the tuning fork that you can use anywhere on the body" for other medical applications, he says.
As much as eight percent of the nation's population is diabetic, and health studies show an alarming increase of the disease. Almost half of O'Brien's patients, he says, are diabetic. With an affordable electronic tuning fork, O'Brien says patients could help monitor their conditions at home.
After researching whether such a device already exists, O'Brien concluded one does not. He has been working on the design and components of his invention, which is about 8 inches long and an inch in diameter, for about a year. With Maine Technology Institute grant funding, O'Brien contacted UMaine's Advanced Manufacturing Center about making a prototype.
James Bryant, the AMC's project manager who's been overseeing the development of O'Brien's prototype, says staff, mechanical, and electrical engineering technology students have been working to build a device that O'Brien can eventually have mass-produced and marketed.
"We welcome these sorts of projects," Bryant says. "They give our students real experiences solving problems and helping Maine businesses improve their operations. In this case, Dr. O'Brien's invention can also help people."
AMC Director John Belding adds that an increasing number of projects the AMC helps with are healthcare oriented.
"We've been developing devices, equipment and tools that can make a difference in people's lives, in addition to those who look after them — whether it's family caregivers or professionals," Belding says.
O'Brien, who holds patents on several other medical innovations he has designed for commercialization under a private company, O'Brien Medical, LLC, says he is grateful for the accessibility of the university's AMC.
"Being up here in Central Maine, it's hard for me to be able to do things like this," O'Brien says. "There are not a lot of resources available. If I didn't have these guys, I'd have to work down south or out of state. I think it's a really valuable program."

Public Abstract:
Neurodegenerative diseases such as Alzheimer's disease, frontotemporal dementia, amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, Parkinson's disease, Huntington's disease, as well as stroke and spinal cord injuries, pose a serious challenge to our society. All are characterized by neuronal cell loss in specific regions of the brain or spinal cord. It is conceivable that the functions of these regions could be restored by replacing damaged nerve cells through transplantation of stem cells or stem cell–derived progenitor cells. Such cells could differentiate into the desired cell types and then integrate into functional neuronal circuits. Therefore, human embryonic stem cells (hESCs) and induced pluoripotent stem (iPS) cells offer an exciting new approach for treating brain diseases and injuries. However, before clinical applications become a reality, much more needs to be learned about the cellular behaviors of neural progenitor cells (hNPCs) derived from human pluripotent stem cells (hPSCs). For instance, transplanted stem cells or stem cell–derived hNPCs must be prevented from turning into tumors and they must migrate effectively to injured brain regions and incorporate into the damaged neuronal circuitry. Thus, understanding the basic molecular mechanisms that govern the proliferation, migration, and differentiation of hPSC-derived hNPCs is critically important. The studies proposed here will further our understanding of how microRNAs—a recently identified class of small regulatory RNA molecules—control the cellular behaviors of hPSC-derived hNPCs. These studies will provide important mechanistic insights into the basic molecular pathways relevant to human stem cell biology. Since miRNAs are excellent tools for manipulating cellular behaviors and may become feasible targets for therapeutic approaches, the proposed studies will likely contribute to the development of effective stem cell–based therapies for neurodegenerative diseases and brain and spinal cord injuries.
Statement of Benefit to California:
California is the most populous state in the U.S., and many Californians suffer from neurodegenerative diseases and brain and spinal cord injuries. Unfortunately, these insidious conditions remain incurable, and will become more common as the number of people of advanced age increases. Stem cell–based therapies are a promising new approach for these problems; however, much more need to be done to understand the basic biology of human embryonic and induced pluoripotent stem cells. We propose to investigate the roles of a class of small RNA molecules called microRNAs in controlling the proliferation, migration, and differentiation of human neural progenitor cells derived from human stem cells. These studies will help develop feasible therapeutic approaches that will eventually be used to treat patients in California and around the world.
Review Summary:
The goal of this proposal is to understand how specific microRNAs (miRNAs) regulate the proliferation, migration and differentiation of human neural progenitor cells (hNPCs) derived from human embryonic stem cells. The proposal builds on the applicant's recent work showing that a brain-specific miRNA influences the proliferation and migration of hNPCs. In Aim 1, the applicant proposes to study the molecular mechanisms underlying this observation. In Aim 2, the applicant will focus on a closely related miRNA and examine its effects on hNPC proliferation, migration and differentiation. Finally, in Aim 3, the applicant proposes to manipulate these miRNAs in hNPCs prior to transplant into mouse embryos and adult mouse brains and assess their effects on the migratory behavior of these cells in vivo. Reviewers did not believe that this proposal would make a major impact in the field. They noted that the applicant has done outstanding work in Drosophila but that the rationale for moving this work into human cells is not yet compelling. Reviewers suggested that more genetically accessible model organisms, such as mice, might yield results at a faster pace. In addition, they specifically questioned the rationale for Aim 2, noting that the miRNA of interest has no known role in any tissue or organism and its expression in hNPCs can only be inferred from the preliminary data presented. While reviewers appreciated the proposal's focus on mechanism, they did not find the project particularly innovative and felt it would only produce an incremental advance in the field. Reviewers agreed that the research plan is both logical and feasible but they raised a number of issues with the preliminary data. They found some of this data confusing and incomplete. For example, Figure 6, which displays a ratio of miRNA expression, provided no explanation of how these data were obtained or exactly what they represent, yet these are the only data in the proposal suggesting that the miRNA of interest in Aim 2 is expressed in hNPCs. Reviewers found Aim 3 to be poorly written and weakly justified and were unsure what new information it would yield. They noted that the applicant does not describe how migration will be quantified in vivo and that the miRNA knockdown proposed will only last a few days, not long enough to study migration to stroke areas in adult brain. Reviewers described the applicant as a productive investigator with significant experience studying miRNAs. They noted that s/he has an impressive publication record, with many articles published in top-tier journals. Reviewers were concerned that no supporting information or letter from a collaborator who is central to Aim 3 was provided, and a Biosketch for a named postdoc was not supplied. However, in general, reviewers found the research team well-qualified to carry out the proposed research. Overall, reviewers appreciated this proposal's logical, achievable aims and the applicant's considerable expertise. However, they questioned the scientific rationale for the project and did not find it likely to make a significant impact in the field of human stem cell biology.

Bill Birns presents a weekly essay on history, geography, day-trips, arts and culture in the Catskill Mountain region.
The 48th Poet Laureate of the United States visited the Catskills last week. Charles Simic was the guest of Ulster County Community College where he appeared in the annual Ellen Robbins Poetry Forum, an event held in April to bring "well-known and award winning poets to SUNY Ulster for intimate question and answer sessions, as well as a special evening reading of their poetry."
Write down your memories today. Tomorrow they become the stuff of history.
In February and March of 1971, Basil Todd, then living in Arkville, wrote two long letters to the Catskill Mountain News detailing his memories growing up in and around Fleischmanns. My friend, Jackie Grocholl, always interested in the history of her hometown, cut those letters from the paper, carefully pressed them into photo-album pages, and preserved them in her scrapbook of local history for, now, 38 years.
"These were men!" That exclamation, almost Shakespearian in its emphatic simplicity, was the oft-repeated refrain of the late Doug Faulkner when talking about the generation that came before his. Doug was the longtime postmaster of New Kingston, a World War II Marine, self-made success as a businessman, logger, trader in real estate and rural artifacts, community leader, and keeper of a general store.
The Catskills have always been a haven for immigrants. Something about the Catskills reminds people of home: the rounded mountain slopes, wide green valleys, narrow hollows, rushing creeks, and small lived-in villages. People from all over the world have long seen the familiar here.
Imagine two young men walking down the sidewalk in Andes, having just dropped off their dates at one o'clock in the morning after a Friday night dance at the firehall. As they approach what is today the Ron Guichard Realty building, one, surprised at the appearance of activity in that building in the wee hours of the morning, says, "I think I see a light."

Discussion in 'Portable Vaporizers' started by magicflight, May 16, 2009.
They released the batteries... finally!
That's how I pull off those cool milk shots with batteries.
I gave one of my beta test batteries to a friend, and he actually doesn't like it because it's too powerful. He likes a slower experience.
When I finished my tests I originally thought MF had pulled off a miracle because I was sure they were LSD batteries. I did a refresh and analyze with my C-9000 and they seemed to be 2400 mAH batteries. Also, MF in the past chose to ship LSD batteries because they have an excellent shelf life. Then I tested an Imedion 2400, a Powerex 2700, and the MF battery by charging them up completely and then letting them sit for two weeks. The MF battery lost much more charge than the Powerex, 445 mAH to 122, so now I believe they are HSD.
One thing I did was compare the brightness of my light with a fully charged Powerex 2700 and a fully charged MF battery. The MF battery was noticeably brighter. It clearly delivers more power to the screen. The overall hit count was almost identical with both batteries, but the ABV from the MF battery came out much darker. The extra power is also reflected in the fact that I was finishing trenches in about 15 hits compared to 20 with the 2700.
Whip is out for delivery!
I was also one of the beta testers for the next batteries. i definitely liked them. stronger than the old stock ones. i got similar results as you Quet, 2.5-3 trenches worth per battery.
like paka, i really thought they were LSDs as well but just really strong. however, i noticed that they definitely lost the charge quicker than the older stock batts. to me their kinda like a half-way between an LSD and HSD battery but leaning a bit more towards the HSD.
all in all i think the new batteries are still an improvement and will allow new users to pick up the technique more easily while allowing more seasoned users to pull off bigger clouds with ease.
edit: in regards to light brightness using the new batteries, i found in comparison to my PA, a freshly charged new battery is equal to ~80% on my PA.
And a good post at that! Thanx for the info about the batteries too. I've been looking for a reason to get one of those walnut versions....gotta have a spare right?
Welcome to the club,I think you'll like it here!
i have learn so much from this forum and that it was time for me add something.i find ,with new batteries you have to take shorter hit or shake it during the hit to prevent burning the load.yeah the batteries are that strong.i was going to get the cherry one because i think it would taste better but i could resit the look of the walnut. its quite beautiful.
Yeah the beta batteries were pretty good. I don't know if I got three trenches, but I definitely got a good two. Mine still fit really tightly so much so that I sometimes nearly combust because they stick and I neglected to twist.
I asked MF about this, and they told me that it was somewhere between LSD and HSD. I didn't even know that was possible.
I liked them much more than the old stock bats, too.
I wonder if the ones they show on the site are the "new" batteries? The ones pictured dont look to have a logo on them. Interesting nonetheless. mflb ftw!!
I also beta tested those batteries, and they are awesome! I guess we are allowed to talk about it now? I hope so!
I think they are up for sale now.
Not having received a release/permission I'm making no such guesses.
"Oh what a wicked web we weave,when first we practice to deceive...."
What batteries?
I'll never get a release because I didn't sign an NDA. I was asked not to talk about them during the beta but there was no legal obligation for me not to, and there still isn't. My obligation to them was strictly moral. Since the batteries are shipping, I don't feel bound to keep silent. Magic-Flight might feel differently and if they do, I regret our difference but I never agreed to anything, I just got a request.
I assumed that Magic-Flight would want to see discussion of the new batteries now that they are rolling them out. I could be wrong. If they ask me to stop, I will.
I guess we don't even know if the new batteries are the same ones we were beta testing. For that matter, we don't even know if we all tested the same ones. My bet is that they are, but that is merely my assumtion until Magic Flight addresses the new batts.
How do we know for sure? I suppose asking Magic Flight would be the only way. They only have one kind of battery to buy now too.
Hello, yes I was able to remove the glass piece from the wood piece, and was then able to fully remove the whip. The end where it goes into the glass has an even smaller stem! Smaller than the shorty ones from the whip.
I couldnt agree more! The WPW, though mine has not arrived yet, seems like a major improvement over the original MF WPA! I cant wait for mine.
We are truly blessed as vaporists
Yep. Personal call. "Strictly moral" is all I need, no reflection on others, of course. No doubt a reasonable assumption, but I'm not making assumptions any more than guesses, no need to?
Good point. That would be another way to know, but I didn't ask, so......
The other part is also interesting to me, did they ever have more than one type? I slept through that part I guess. Seems to happen more and more often.
No big deal I'm sure, personal call.
If Magic Flight starts selling the beta batteries that we tested, and there is only one battery available for sale on their site, how would we ever know they started selling the beta batteries? I mean, logic suggests they would just stop sending out the old batts, and start sending out the beta batts (at this point out of beta). But, unless they made some kind of announcement, no one would ever know, it would just happen.
I need to buy another set of batteries, and a few caps, but would like to know for sure before I place my order. So, I may wait until after the holidays. I'm not sure if they ever sold more than one type of battery at a time on their website.
Yep, their call, for sure. Beta testing is usually not about finding out how good something is, but really the other way. Find the problems. Say for instance finding an accidental deep discharge (or just 'one too many hits') is fatal? After that capacity and heat (or lifespan) drops off? One guy finding this could quietly end the program.
If, OTOH, these guys are as good as you good folks are saying and MF is offering them for sale, I'll be looking to buy some to upgrade my supply......without waiting for them to give out. And I've got more than one box to support....
These new batteries sound excellent I hope they have them here in OZ.
So its been almost a year to the day that I received my LB and a whole year on this board that has helped me enjoy my LB even more! I love my box! It gets used daily and I've been using the PA and Vapor Lung combo for quite a while now.
I've even gotten 2 of my buddies to purchase their own MFLB. It's my one year anniversary and i wanted to say i love FC and my MFLB!
Happy anniversary!
Been a fun year huh? No matter where this goofy Vape-world takes me,I will ALWAYS have a MFLB in my pocket as a back up.
I've been using one as my only Vape for the last 6-7 months and it's never let me down. Always nice to know that with the MFLB I'm never more than 10 seconds away from a good buzz.

4.2/5 rDev -6%
I've had this beer twice in the past couple of weeks at the FBL. Both times it hit me exactly the same in terms of taste, aroma, color and mouthfeel. It looks very refreshing with a bright yellow/amber color and some good carbonation. The aroma is strong passion fruit which is very pleasant. The taste is very close to the nose with sweet refreshing fruit flavors and a slight sour note that in all slightly overwhelms the palate. However, you definitely look forward to your next sip, or in my case gulp.
Overall it is a very good fruit beer when only compared to other beers in this category. It is highly drinkable for that first pint but the strong fruit taste has you passing on a second. I have to congratulate the FBL for always pushing the envelope with their originality and unique flavors and in most cases succeeding!

4.75/5 rDev +6.3%
What can I say? My favorite fruit turned wheat beer. High scores indicative of this being a phenomenal fruit beer.
Though this is supposedly different from the passion fruit Berliner, it has all the qualities of a nice light Berliner.
The result: a luscious sour that is very tasty. Seriously, I love passion fruit, and this beer's wheat base highlightes the virtues of this sour, aromatic fruit.
Bravo funky buddha!

Coming off of international breaks, club sides are often a bit rusty. Hopefully, that is not the case in the first massive game of the European football weekend, as Manchester United travels to Anfield to take on Liverpool in a Northwest Derby early on Saturday afternoon.
Both teams were able to get some of their key players healthy in the weeks leading up to the break and during the international break, leaving Sir Alex Ferguson and Kenny Dalglish to make some big choices. Both Rio Ferdinand and Nemanja Vidic are expected to start and partner each other in the center of defense, while Liverpool legend and captain Steven Gerrard is finally 90 minutes fit.
However, who Gerrard replaces - if he cracks the starting XI at all - is up for debate. Liverpool have won their last two consecutive matches with a 4-4-2 shape that did not include Gerrard in it, and it would be understandable if Dalglish had no desire to change a winning team. The center of midfield of Charlie Adam and Lucas Leiva finally seems to be clicking, as does the strike pairing of Andy Carroll and Luis Suarez. Gerrard has always played at his best in an advanced role, usually drifting around behind one striker, and won't be able to drop directly into this system in his preferred spot.
Dalglish is going to have to drop a striker, drop Adam, or drop Dirk Kuyt to somehow fit Gerrard into the team, none of which sound like particularly great options. The most sensible option if Dalglish wants to pick his captain in a derby match no matter what would likely be having him play a deeper role than normal in place of Adam, but Gerrard's discipline when playing this role has been questionable in the past.
Ferguson has dilemmas of his own, but this is the case for every big match that Manchester United plays. The center of midfield doesn't have automatic starters, while one of Ashley Young or Nani could make way for Ferguson's big game two-way ace in the hole, Park Ji-Sung. Additionally, the options at right back are both endless and far from ideal for Ferguson, and picking the best matchup against Jose Enrique and Stewart Downing could be key for the Red Devils.
While Liverpool have not had great success in the league compared to their stature over the last couple of seasons, they've still been able to get results against Manchester United at Anfield, as the Red Devils have not won there since 2007. Vidic has been sent off three times in this fixture, while Gerrard usually seems to bring his best game when facing United at Anfield.
Tactically, Liverpool might have some trouble matching up with the front like of United, should Ferguson go with the expected pairing of 'Chicharito' Javier Hernandez and Wayne Rooney, with the latter player operating behind him in a role closer to that of a creative attacking midfielder than a striker. Lucas is in great form and should have some fantastic battles with Rooney, but some previous performances suggest that the Liverpool back line could struggle with the pace of Hernandez.
Of course, the matchup on the other end might favor the forwards as well. Nemanja Vidic is still one of the best defenders in the world, but his record against Liverpool is less than superb. His partner, Rio Ferdinand, has shown some signs of age over the last two seasons and while he's still quality, he's certainly not the bonafide world class player that he once was.
Liverpool vs. Manchester United
Game Date/Time: 1245 pm local, 7:45 am ET, Saturday, October 15
Venue: Anfield, Liverpool, England
TV: Sky Sports 2 (UK), ESPN2 (USA), TSN2 (Canada), Sky (Ireland), Fox Sports Premium (Latin America)
Projected Liverpool lineup (4-4-2): Reina; Enrique, Skrtel, Carragher, Kelly; Downing, Gerrard, Lucas, Kuyt; Carroll, Suarez
Projected Manchester United lineup (4-4-1-1): De Gea; Evra, Ferdinand, Vidic, Smalling; Park, Anderson, Carrick, Nani; Rooney; Hernandez

By EWU Athletics
After a weekend full of big performances and key plays made by several members of the Eastern Washington University men's basketball team, sophomore forward Venky Jois and sophomore guard Tyler Harvey have been rewarded.
Jois is this week's co-Big Sky Conference Player of the Week, while Harvey earned the same honor from College Sports Madness. They helped Eastern register a home sweep to even their league record at 2-2, beating Montana 69-62 and Montana State 77-72 at Reese Court in Cheney, Wash.
Jois finished the weekend with 28 points, 17 rebounds, six assists, four blocked shots and three steals in 67 minutes of action, while making 56.3 percent of his field goals (9-of-16) and 62.5 percent of his free throws (10-of-16).
Jois, who shared this week's honor with Northern Colorado's Tim Huskisson, also was a BSC Player of the Week last season when he was selected as the league's Freshman of the Year.
"Venky has been consistent through four conference games," said Eastern head coach Jim Hayford, whose team takes a 7-8 overall record to Northern Arizona (Thursday) and Sacramento State (Saturday) this week. "It's neat when you feel like you have one of the premier frontcourt players in the Big Sky Conference and he's playing that way. So my hat is off to Venky."
In EWU's 77-72 win over Montana State which was MSU's first league loss, he had two important blocked shots in the last 1:25 of the game to help rally EWU from an 11-point second-half deficit. He finished with his fifth double-double of the season and 14th of his career with 14 points, 10 rebounds and three blocked shots. In a 69-62 triumph over two-time defending Big Sky champion Montana, Jois had 14 points, seven rebounds, five assists and a blocked shot, as he came three boards from another double-double.
The Big Sky Conference Freshman of the Year in the 2012-13 season, Jois is EWU's second-leading scorer with a 12.9 average. He is also averaging a team-leading 8.1 rebounds, as well as 2.4 assists and 1.5 blocks per game. So far he has five double-doubles this season. He had nine double-doubles as a freshman to rank among the leaders in NCAA Division I, and now has 14 in his 43-game career (41 as a starter). He ranks 16th in the Big Sky in scoring, and is second in blocked shots (1.5), third in rebounding (8.1) and fifth in offensive rebounds (2.7).
"We only expect more and more from him each night out as he continues growing," added Hayford. "He's had lots of playing time, so he has the minutes of a junior with sophomore eligibility. He's a leader and we count on him."
Harvey had 44 points with nine 3-pointers and six assists in last week's sweep, including 25 versus the Grizzlies and 19 against MSU. He ranks second in the Big Sky in scoring for all games (20.3) and is ranked first in league games only (23.3).
This week, Harvey returns to Flagstaff, Ariz., where he had the break-out game of his young career. The Eagles trailed by 13 with less than four minutes remaining in last year's 77-74 overtime win at NAU, but Harvey scored 14 points in the last 8:31 and rallied the Eagles to an improbable win. He had only scored 17 points all season before that explosion.
"Tyler energized us and we had a miraculous comeback," recalled Hayford. "Everything kind of went right for us and wrong for NAU, and we won in overtime. And a star was born."
Besides leading the Big Sky, Harvey currently ranks fifth in NCAA Division I in 3-pointers made per game (3.8). He is also 20th nationally in 3-point percentage (45.2 percent) and 27th in scoring (20.3).
"The neat thing is he's only a sophomore," added Hayford. "(Last year's NAU game) was a real pivotal turning point in our development as a program during a year in which we were playing five or even six freshmen. It's great to go back to the scene of the crime."
