Theatre: Dying for It by Moira Buffini
University Theatre Center Showcase Theatre UTC Box Office: (936) 294-1339 Tickets: $10
Dying for It is a new adaptation of Nikolai Erdman?s satirical comedy The Suicide. Written in 1928, five years after Stalin took control of the Communist Party, The Suicide was banned in 1932, before it had had a single public performance. It was not seen in the Soviet Union until 1982. The comedy centers on Semyon, unemployed, living in the hallway and watching his wife Masha slave all the hours God sends. When his last hope to earn a crust and gain some self-respect disappears, he decides to take his own life. Word gets out of his intention and he finds himself inundated with visitors begging him to die on their behalf.

Ease your stress levels by learning to say 'no'
By Pure Matters
The Art of No is about focus. What you decide to not do leaves more room for doing what you need and want to do. Here are eight guiding principles to help you feel more comfortable saying no.
1. Prioritize
Can you articulate and even rank what is important to you? At work? At home? If you can put what is important into words, then you can make better decisions about what not to do. It will help you not be reactive to every opportunity or request that comes along. Priorities can and will shift. So be open to new possibilities but be clear to yourself why something new can become a priority.
2. No Thank You
Somebody has respected you enough to ask you to do something. They deserve your reply. Your reply should be honest and gracious and fair to yourself. If you say yes to something that you have no energy for or no interest in (and is not a priority for you), then you are not being fair to yourself and you are not being honest. It may feel easier to not answer at all but your lack of clear communication puts someone else in a difficult position. There are all sorts of way to say no with grace. Practice these phrases and make up a few of your own so they are at hand when you need them.
• No, I can't do that, but I can do…
• No, I'm not available to commit to something like that at this time, but I appreciate you asking me.
• No, that isn't something I'm really great at, but maybe X would be a good resource (sometimes it's OK to pass the buck).
• No, that is out of my scope but here's how you can get it done.
• No, thank you so much for asking, but I can't do that. Let me know if I can help in another way (if you mean it).
Don't feel like you have to lie. Many people will see right through you. Don't feel like you have to elaborate. Nobody wants to hear it. Do be honest and genuine and authentic. Just keep it simple!
3. It's Not All About You
Saying No is more than being "all about you." It isn't about being selfish. There are times when you should say yes, even when it does inconvenience you. This may not sound like a principle of No, but it is. You live in your life with other people. You care about these other people and you want them to feel cared for, loved and respected. In a non-manipulative, mature, respectful relationship, there are times when saying yes, even if it puts you out a bit, is important. I don't mean be a door mat, or that you have to be a super-human and do everything for everyone. Just recognize that sometimes there are times when compromise is good, because your priority is the person you are compromising with and not necessarily the idea you are compromising on.
4. Suck It Up
Some things you simply have to do. Get over it and get it done. Don't waste your energy on avoidance, procrastination, anger or whatever it is you do. Sometimes the paper won't get written, the bathroom won't get cleaned, or the dog won't get walked unless you do it. So don't debate it. Put it on your list and then cross it off.
5. Practice Makes Perfect
Have your "No" phrases as ready as your business cards. Keep them handy. Keep them honest. See #2. It is so important to make yourself comfortable with saying No that I put it in here twice.
6. You Decide Where to Draw the Line
Whether it is where to donate money (there is always someone asking) or when texting is allowed some situations might cause you to feel guilt or friction as a result of your decision. Create some boundaries ahead of time. Articulate your rules when you have a calm, clear head and then when you need to act on them (by saying No) they will be handy. Pick your battles, but be prepared to win them.
7. It's OK!
Give yourself permission to say No. This takes practice too. We all want to be good people (at least most of us). Perhaps we want to save the world, be the best mother ever, be the favorite go-to person at work. It is unlikely that you will be able to do it all, all the time. Those are worthy aspirations but you need to remember one important thing—the oxygen mask. On an airplane you are told to always put the oxygen mask on yourself before you help someone else. There is a really good reason for this. If you aren't breathing you won't be able to help someone else. If you are saying yes to too many things, you aren't breathing. You aren't taking care of yourself, so you can forget about saving the world and doing all those things that are very important to you. Breathe.
8. What If?
In dangerous situations just say No however you can. Lie, be rude, run, be scary. Just get out of there.
–Jen Maffett

As many of you know, earlier this week, the ASPCA joined local authorities to remove more than 40 dogs, including Chihuahuas and blood hounds, from a large, substandard breeding facility—also referred to as a puppy mill—in Nancy, Kentucky. Many of the dogs have untreated medical conditions, and are being cared for by a team of veterinarians and responders at a temporary facility, set up by the ASPCA and the Kentucky Humane Society, in Louisville.
The dogs are safe now. With temperatures dropping rapidly across the country, it was just in time. These dogs will never again suffer in extreme cold without access to food or shelter. They'll never be stacked in tiny cages. And they'll never be forced to breed.
Right now, the ASPCA is providing shelter, veterinary care, healthy food and much-needed attention and affection to the rescued dogs. Our work is far from over.
Please take a moment to watch and share our video. You'll see some of the dogs we rescued, as well as the conditions these dogs were forced to endure.
Stay tuned to aspca.org/blog for more news to come. Follow the conversation on Twitter using hashtag #MillsBreedMisery. If now is a good time for you to give, please consider making a gift to the ASPCA.
It's people like you Carol that keep people like me motivated. You clearly have no idea what puppy mills are really like. Your pets are BOUGHT my pets are all rescues.
Thank you for reaffirming that what I do is right. I am vegan, eat no meat, use no animal by products because of factory farming conditions.
The Humane Society as well as every single shelter I have dealt with have small breed dogs, every pure breed of dog has a rescue.
"Honey,you DO NOT KNOW WHAT YOU ARE TALKING ABOUT!!!"
I'd venture to say you live in Kentucky? Which has one of the worst animal cruelty laws in the United States.
Betcha didn't know that. :)
oh my, you really are not keeping up with the overpopulation/abuse/puppy mill suffering.... oh my, you are sad! and you bought from breeders and never RESCUED one from a shelter? wise up!
Ms. Petersen, your comments were so insulting to all of us who do puppy mill rescue, and your lack of education pertaining to this issue is overwhelming. In this day and age, to make the statements you did demonstrates the degree to which ignorance of the subject matter still exists in this country. I live in Staten Island, NY, and have volunteered for several years for a grass roots rescue organization (one of many in the NY metropolitan area), and I can tell you first hand that the animals that are rescued are NOT healthy at all, and they are terrified of the millers, as they are neglected and abused for their entire breeding lives. When they can no longer produce enough offspring to be a profit-making commodity, they are destroyed. Most of the millers don't euthanize them humanely (by a vet), either. Instead, they take them out of their cages (probably the first time they've ever been out) and do one of several things to them: drown them in a barrel, electrocute them, shoot them, bludgeon them - use your imagination, and guaranteed the miller has already thought of a creative and cheap way to kill them. They don't spend money on them from the time they are born, for shots, vet visits, etc., so why would they humanely put them out of their misery? They don't even usually provide decent shelter, heat in the winter or fans or A/C in the hot summer weather. This would take from their profits.
So far as the shelters only having mixed breeds (mutts), they also have all sized, from small to large, pedigree dogs. We have a beautiful German Shepherd my daughter rescued from a kill shelter in FL. She is the most intelligent, loyal and devoted dog you can imagine. She was scheduled to be euthanized the next day after my daughter found her in a cage. Now she frolics with our two black cats, and stations herself at our back door every night (an intruder attempted to get in several years ago, until she barked at him). No problems since!! Yes, she sheds, but the sense of security she provides all of us and the love she shows more than makes up for any hair I find!
As far as breeders go, many of them sell "mixed breeds", too - are you familiar with the Labradoodle? It is a mix of Labrador Retriever and Poodle - they are a good-sized dog, a nice dog, but they are NOT a pedigree, and people are paying a lot of money for these "designer" dogs. There are other "designer" breeds out there, too. Years ago they would have been referred to as mutts.
Most of the rescues the groups in the metropolitan area go on are in Lancaster County, PA, but we have also cooperated with other groups out-of-state on large rescues in states such as Ohio and Kentucky. There are puppy mills all over this country. The majority of puppies in pet shops come from the mills, and by purchasing them the public is condemning the "parent" dogs to a life of misery by supporting this horrendous industry. Every time a pup is purchased, it encourages these millers to breed their dogs again. Some females are bred to the point that their insides protrude from their bodies. Do you really support this activity???
Yes there are irresponsible pet owners who do not spay/neuter their animals, and they are a part of the problem. Between them and the puppy mills, we are saturated with unwanted pets. By the way, rescue groups DO NOT bring rescued animals to shelters. We get them veterinary care first; then we foster them and socialize them and do strict background checks before placing the animal in a "forever" home. On rare occasion, if a family cannot care for the animal they adopt- they can bring it back rather than taking it to a shelter. We are all volunteers, who donate our time, vehicles, gas and tolls to drive to the mills and we run fundraisers to help defer the expenses incurred for vet bills, food, etc. Do you really think we would remove animals from a healthy, happy environment? We are not glory seekers, but rather people from different backgrounds who share a common concern for all creatures.
I have also signed petitions and made donations on behalf of the carriage horses in New York, signed petitions against the slaughter of baby seals, the slaughter of dolphins in Japan, the slaughter of whales by Japanese whalers and have just written a letter to the President regarding the shipping of horses out of our country to Mexico and Canada for slaughter (the slaughter of horses in this country is illegal).
All animals should be treated with kindness and respect, and I would love to see the animals raised for meat treated kinder than they are. There will always be people who eat meat. I don't think we'll ever stop that, but at least treat the creatures well while they are alive. Yes, most people, if they were aware of the treatment these animals receive, would do what they could to change things. Education, again, is the key. All these issues, along with the puppy/kitten mills need to be brought to the attention of the public. Most people like animals and would be willing to help make changes if they were made aware. I hope I have educated you just a bit about puppy mills.
A while back HBO ran a film entitled "Madonna of the Mills". See if you can somehow see this - it explains extremely well what puppy mills are all about - you will find it very educational. I am proud to say that I know the woman who heads this organization about whom this was made. She has dedicated her life to this issue.
Just saying,...
Where did you come from lady? I would not buy from a breeder, I have always had dogs from shelters, pit mixes besides, and they have always been wonderful companions. And you don't think dogs and cats are euthanized by the thousands? Every day? Of course they are, and it is because people like you need your special little poufy dogs. Every dog deserves a home, but give me a nice big dog that is a real dog.
Ahem...Carol I know a "Breeder" when I hear one...just sayin......
I am sharing my life with my 5th purebred dog rescued from a county or city animal shelter. Take a walk in your local shelter, those dogs are purebred, probably puppy mill dogs in those shelters destined for euthanasia. They ARE disposing of purebred dogs. Yes, there are mix breed dogs adding to the population explosion, but they are a only part of the problem.
You need to shut the f*** up. You don't know what you are talking about. YES, the government needs to step in and shut these people down, especially the ones who are not taking care of these animals the way they deserve to be taken cared of. All these breeders are thinking of is where the next dollars will come from. They don't even pay taxes on this money that they are making. You shouldn't even be a dog owner because you call your dog dumb, no dogs are dumb, it's the owners like you that are dumb. you dumb ass...
Can someone please tell me why has there never been a petition to the leader of your country, to completely close down every single puppy mill/animal mill? We are all agreed that puppy mills and all animal mills MUST be closed down. They are the ones causing the deaths of millions of shelter animals and they are getting away with it. I live in the UK and if something as dreadful as this happens, we can write to our leader, the Prime minister. If a law is brought in here in Parliament, it is the same law for the whole country, not for just parts of it, as the US has with its different states run by governors. Obviously you're going to get good and bad governors. Some who care and some who don't give a toss. I really don't understand your politics. Why don't you cut out the middle men and go straight to the top? Pamela M. Beck writes well. Why don't you start a Care2 petition to your President, Pamela? Hundreds of thousands of citizens would sign it and share it, including me. It's no good pussyfooting around with the USDA, from what I've read over the years, they are next to useless. Please I beg you, petition your country's leader. Alert the media. An ongoing massive campaign on tv and in the newspapers will show that we are at the end of our tether and we won't be put off anymore. I hope Pamela reads this. If not, surely there is someone else in the whole of the USA who is capable and willing to compose a petition.
How well written your words are and said much better then I ever could. I agree with you and state the same facts whenever I can but our government see's fit to imprison and persecute any one you takes the law into their own hands and free animals unless it isa organization such as the HS. Animal Liberation member's are in jail now for just those actions. It seems to me the owners of these animal concentration places should be the ones in prison but because these creatures are JUST animals that doesn't happen. Yes we the ones who care need to take to the streets and demand change. Let us hope it happens!!!!
I totally agree with you - A few years ago, I had an editorial published after Burlington Coat factory had purchased coats to sell that were made from dog fur. They maintained that they were not aware of this practice from abroad. My editorial spoke too highly and naively on how the good old US of A was better than most countries in the way we treat animals. I was so totally wrong. Though it is critical for every animal lover to make our government aware and responsible for taking action against cruelty, I am too cynical to rely on politicians doing the right thing anytime soon. What we can each do right now is to NOT PURCHASE ANY ANIMALS FROM PET STORES - most are from mills. If everyone did that or convinced those people in their lives not to purchase from pet stores, I believe that would have a tremendous impact. For those people who are set on getting a full bred animal, there are many rescues which specialize in specific breeds. Personally, I think that with all the shelters in this country, any animal is precious, with or without "PAPERS."

The Ocular Genomics Institute (OGI) translates personalized genomic medicine into clinical care for ophthalmic disorders by facilitating and promoting genomics and gene therapy research in the Department of Ophthalmology. The OGI provides various services and expertise to internal and external institutions through the Genomics Core, Gene Transfer Vector Core, and the MEE Bioinformatics Center.
- The Genetic Eye Disorder (GEDi) panel: The OGI developed a comprehensive genetic diagnostic test that simultaneously analyzes the coding sequence and selected intronic regions of 234 genes associated with inherited retinal degenerations, early-onset glaucoma and optic atrophy, as well as the mitochondrial genome, for likely-pathogenic mutations. Mass. Eye and Ear is the first and only location in Boston and in the northeast to offer this service.
- A critical role for the complement system in macular degeneration: In a study published in the journal Human Molecular Genetics, OGI researchers reported the unexpected finding that in mice genetically engineered to have an inherited form of macular degeneration, the disease was prevented by turning off the animals' complement system, a part of the immune system. This is the first report to demonstrate a role for the complement system in an inherited macular degeneration.
- Complete catalog of the retinal transcriptome: In the journal BMC Genomics, OGI researchers published the most thorough description of gene expression in the human retina reported to date. Almost 30,000 novel exons and over 100 potential novel genes were identified. In total, the newly detected mRNA sequence increased the number of exons identified in the human genome by 3 percent.

APSCA Humane Law Enforcement Agents are investigating the deaths of several dogs that became violently ill in July after visiting Riverside Park in upper Manhattan. The animals' guardians suspect the dogs were victims of intentional poisoning.
We are working to determine the cause of these dogs' tragic endings. If you have any information related to this case, please contact the ASPCA's Humane Law Enforcement department at (212) 876-7700, ext. 4450.
Please stay tuned to ASPCA.org for more information about this developing case.
This is the #1 reason to make sure to take your dogs to a training center that will teach you how to poison proof your dog - training saves lives! Here in my local city, we have had a person or persons putting staples and razor blades in cheese and leaving it at dog parks.
In my point of view, successful dog training is not only about getting your dog to understand you—it's about how much you understanding your dog. Dog training will improve the relationship and interaction between you and the dog, once your dog was well trained, you will have fun with the dog.

Each state senator represents an average of 254,048 residents, as of the 2010 Census.[3] After the 2000 Census, each member represented 245,621 residents.[4]
The Pennsylvania senate is a continuing body during the term for which its senators are elected. It meets at noon on the first Tuesday of January and then regularly throughout the year. When the Pennsylvania Constitution stipulates that the General Assembly must meet in regular session annually, that means the session of one year must adjourn by noon of the first Tuesday of the following year. Two regular sessions cannot meet at the same time.
The General Assembly must also adjourn by midnight, November 30, in even-numbered years due to the expiration of the terms of office of all House members and half the Senate. The Lieutenant Governor, as President of the Senate, can cast a tie-breaking vote on any question except the final passage of a bill or joint resolution, the adoption of a conference report, or the concurrence in amendments made by the House of Representatives[5].
As of May 2015, Pennsylvania is one of 23 Republican state government trifectas.
Article II of the Pennsylvania Constitution establishes when the Pennsylvania General Assembly, of which the Senate is a part, is to meet. Section 4 of Article II states that the General Assembly is to convene its regular session on the first Tuesday of January each year.
Section 4 gives the Governor of Pennsylvania the authority to convene special sessions of the General Assembly either when he judges a special session to be in the public interest, or when a majority of each legislative House requests a special session.
- See also: Dates of 2013 state legislative sessions
In 2013, the General Assembly will be in session from January 2 to a date to be determined.
Major issues
Like many other states, Pennsylvania lawmakers will have to work on a budget deficit. Other issues include economic development, public pension reform, liquor privatization, and child abuse.[6]

In 2012, the Senate began its legislative session on January 3.

In 2011, the Senate will be in session from January 4 through a date to be determined by the General Assembly. [7]

In 2010, the Senate convened its legislative session on January 5, and it remained in session throughout the year.[8]
Ethics and transparency
Open States Transparency
The Sunlight Foundation released an "Open Legislative Data Report Card" in March 2013. Pennsylvania was given a grade of C in the report. The report card evaluated how adequate, complete and accessible legislative data was to the general public. A total of 10 states received an A: Arkansas, Connecticut, Georgia, Kansas, New Hampshire, New York, North Carolina, Texas, Virginia and Washington.[9]
Elections for the office of Pennsylvania State Senate will be held in Pennsylvania on November 6, 2012. A total of 25 seats were up for election.
The following table details the 10 districts with the smallest margin of victory in the November 6 general election.

Elections for the office of Pennsylvania's State Senate were held in Pennsylvania on November 2, 2010. State senate seats in all even numbered districts were on the ballot in 2010.
The signature-filing deadline for candidates wishing to run in these elections was March 9, 2010. The primary election day was May 18, 2010.
In 2010, the candidates for state senate raised a total of $11,102,031 in campaign contributions. The top 10 donors were: [10]
|2010 Donors, Pennsylvania State Senate
|Volpe Jr., Charles J
|Students First
|Republican Party of Pennsylvania
|Metropolitan Regional Council of Carpenters & Joiners
|Pennsylvania Republican Party
|Friends of Dominic Pileggi
|Pennsylvania Association for Justice
|Philadelphia Trial Lawyers Association
|Electrical Workers Local 98
|Templeton Jr., John M
Under Article II of the Pennsylvania Constitution, Senators shall be at least twenty-five years of age and Representatives twenty-one years of age. They shall have been citizens and inhabitants of their respective districts one year next before their election (unless absent on the public business of the United States or of this State) and shall reside in their respective districts during their terms of service.
| How Vacancies are filled in State Legislatures
If there is a vacancy in the Senate, a special election must be held to fill the vacant seat. The Senate President must call for a special election. There are no deadlines set in the state constitution on when a special election can be held[11].
- See also: Redistricting in Pennsylvania
As far as legislative redistricting, the Pennsylvania Legislative Reapportionment Commission is responsible. This commission is normally made up of the majority and minority leaders of each legislative chamber, plus a fifth member selected by the other four to serve as chair. If the four cannot agree on a fifth, the Pennsylvania Supreme Court decides. The commission has until the October of the redistricting year to submit a plan.
2010 census
Pennsylvania received its local census data on March 9, 2011. The state had a low 3.4 percent growth rate from 2000-2010. The five most populous cities showed mostly stagnation: Philadelphia grew by 0.6 percent, Pittsburgh decreased by 8.6 percent, Allentown grew by 10.7 percent, Erie decreased by 1.9 percent, and Reading grew by 8.5 percent. By county, the major standout was Forest County with a 56 percent rate of growth.[12]
On August 17, 2011, the Commission approved the census data and went to work on a preliminary map, which it passed on October 31, 2011 by a vote of 3-2. Democrats were not happy with the plan or the negotiation process. Final maps were approved on December 12, 2011 by a 4-1 vote, moving a Senate district and five House districts from west to east. There was a 30-day window to file appeals, of which 11 were filed. The state Supreme Court threw out the maps on January 25, 2012 after appeals were heard.
The commission met on April 12, 2012 to vote in favor of a compromise map, which contained two Senate district splits and 68 House splits. On June 8, the commission approved the final plan, which went to the state Supreme Court for final approval.
- See also: Comparison of state legislative salaries
As of 2013, members of the Pennsylvania Legislature are paid $82,026/year during legislative sessions. Legislators receive $159/day (vouchered) tied to the federal rate, which they can receive actual expenses or per diem.[13]
Legislators in Pennsylvania are able to retire at age 50, while other state workers cannot retire until they turn 60. In 2011, the average legislative pension was $35,221 annually, while the average state employee pension was $23,491. According to former legislator David Mayernik, who began collecting a pension of $29,583 a year when he retired at age 50, the lowered retirement age was intended as compensation for small legislative salaries as well as the uncertainty of serving in office.[14]
When sworn in
Pennsylvania legislators assume office in January.

Partisan balance 1992-2013
From 1992-2013, the Democratic Party was the majority in the Pennsylvania State Senate for one year while the Republicans were the majority for 21 years. The Pennsylvania State Senate is one of 13 state senates that was Republican for more than 80 percent of the years between 1992-2013. Pennsylvania was under Republican trifectas for the final three years of the study.
Across the country, there were 541 Democratic and 517 Republican state senates from 1992 to 2013.
Over the course of the 22-year study, state governments became increasingly more partisan. At the outset of the study period (1992), 18 of the 49 states with partisan legislatures had single-party trifectas and 31 states had divided governments. In 2013, only 13 states have divided governments, while single-party trifectas held sway in 36 states, the most in the 22 years studied.
The chart below shows the partisan composition of the Office of the Governor of Pennsylvania, the Pennsylvania State Senate and the Pennsylvania House of Representatives from 1992-2013.

Remembering Barry: Hannah, 67, dies Monday
To the world he was an author but for many in Oxford he was something more: friend and teacher, a fisherman and a dad. Writer Barry Hannah died on Monday afternoon of natural causes, according to the Lafayette County coroner, at his home in Oxford. It was just weeks shy of his 68th birthday and days before his work and life were to be honored at the 17th annual Oxford Conference on the Book.
Brandon Niemeyer contributed to this report. (March 2, 2010, Page 1)

District Attorney Rick Shaffer said, typically, the fraud charges are usually misdemeanors and are handled in district court.
"Sometimes they are for trial; however, I would say most are resolved through plea," Shaffer wrote in an email to The Star . "I have no idea how many cases of this nature we prosecute, but I do not believe the number is exceptionally large."
Shaffer wrote that if a defendant is convicted or takes a plea, restitution is usually ordered.
He said employment security fraud is a class one misdemeanor with a maximum sentence of 120 days in jail.

Foxboro, MA (SportsNetwork.com) - The New England Patriots signed veteran linebacker James Anderson on Wednesday.
Anderson started all 16 games for the Bears last year, recording 102 tackles and four sacks.
The 30-year-old Anderson played for the Panthers from 2006 to 2012 before signing with Chicago.
Anderson has registered 556 tackles, 12 sacks, three interceptions, five forced fumbles and eight fumble recoveries in 110 NFL games with 69 starts. The Virginia Tech product has totaled 100 or more tackles three times in his career, including a career-high and franchise-record 145 tackles in 2011 with Carolina.
In addition, the Patriots released wide receiver Mark Harrison.

TRENTON — Spencer Howard's grand slam highlighted an eight-run second inning as Jacksonville American Legion Post 265 claimed an 18-6 victory over Jones County Post 154 in an Area II East game Friday night.
The game was called after seven innings because of the 10-run mercy rule.
Post 265, which beat Jones County 6-5 on Tuesday night at home, is now 7-9 and 3-3 in the conference heading into a nonconference doubleheader Sunday against Duplin County Post 127 at Clinton High School.
Howard was 5-for-6 with 5 RBIs to pace Post 265's 20-hit attack that saw five players with at least two hits.
Jacksonville grabbed a 1-0 lead in the first when Christian Kercado walked with one out and advanced to third on singles by Corey Case and Howard before scoring on a fielder's choice by Dawnoven Smith.
And then came the second inning uprising that included Howard's second homer of the year.
With one out and the bases loaded, Kercado reached on an error, scoring Adam Daley, who had singled to open the inning. Then Case singled home Andrew Hartness, who also had reached on a single before Howard hammered the ball over the left field fence to make it 7-0.
With two outs, Martin Ortega singled and went to third on Daley's double — his second hit of the inning — and scored on Logan Staup's single to right field after Zach Scalzo walked. Daley came home when Hartness walked with the bases loaded to push the lead to 9-0.
Post 265 kept pouring it on with three more runs in the third behind a two-run double to left field by Scalzo.
Meanwhile, right-hander Corey Case (1-1) didn't allow a hit until Tyler Metts singled with one out in the fourth inning. And one inning later Case lost his bid for a shutout when Jones County scored six runs, which included a 3-run homer by Kyle Gaskins, who was 3-for-4.
But Post 265 countered with a five-run sixth that included a two-run single by Case.
Jacksonville 183015 0—1820 1

If you are ever monitoring these threads, I have a request. Could you sponsor a moderated (possibly closed) forum for discussion of the scientific aspects of faith, belief, reason, wisdom, etc.?
I was very excited to see this forum originally, but as things have developed it seems this forum is evolving the way usenet did after the internet went commercial in 1991. Usenet today is virtually un-usable except for a limited number of moderated groups. The reason - evey tom, dick and jane who has an opinion about some subject feels perfectly free to post whatever comes to their minds at any given moment.
Maybe you had some purpose in providing an open forum. Perhaps your doing some content analysis on these comments and trying to measure the evidence that people spout off without doing the research. I don't know. But I think a real Science Forum would be useful and deliberative discourse on these topics would be most welcome.

Bulletin No. 4. 19th March, 1937.
Contributions and donations are coming in steadily to the National Joint Committee's Relief fund and we have just bought £300 worth of food which is being sent to Dr. Pictet at Valencia this week. We quote below a very satisfactory report on the work of our 'buses from Mr. Garratt, who is in charge of the contingent and in response to a telegram in which he appeals for more transport, we are arranging to buy another 'bus. A liaison officer has gone out to Perpignan at his own expense to facilitate the sending of 'buses, lorries and ambulances over the frontier.
We have heard from Mr. Garratt that our motor 'buses are doing very well, particularly the two Bedfords recently sent out. They are now making another trip to Madrid, carrying four tons of milk destined for the Spanish Committee for looking after "odd" children. Petrol and the practicability of the Madrid road are the two chief limiting factors, but if the vehicles are designed to carry sufficient petrol to complete the journey, the first difficulty should not be insurmountable. The main road from Valencia is closed for the last thirty miles, but the detour to reach the side road is not very difficult or dangerous, and adds no more than an hour to the journey. The road is partly in shelling range, but Mr. Garratt says that although he has done the trip six times, he has only seen one shell.
We quote the following description of the evacuation of children from the Friends' Bulletin: "Their departure was most moving. The parents made an attempt at restraining their tears; the children joked, chattered, wanted to appear grown up. When the car set off, there was neither weeping nor outcry, but the faces of the children became absolutely tragic. The route by which they leave the town is altered every day (one way only). Suddenly the car was faced by three broken down lorries on the road, already narrow. The children had to get out, and with great difficulty and great danger the car passed the lorries and took up the children again. All this in driving rain. Then the dynamo gave trouble. Already they had left rather late, and they had to wait for a clear sky before starting off again."
The Spaniards have a tremendous love for children and in every village where our 'buses halt, the inhabitants rush out to welcome them. On one occasion, after a pause for a midday meal, it was found that several children were missing. After a long search, they were finally located at the barber's shop. He wanted to do something to help and the best way in which he could do so was to cut the children's hair for them.
It is agreed by reliable authorities that in the question of the provision of transport versus supplies, the over-whelming need is for transport and if one must be sacrificed to the other, it is better to send empty motors than loads of food without the means to distribute. Mr. Garratt reports that he has more food to take to Madrid than he can handle and that there is an unlimited number of children and very pressing cases to take out of Madrid.
A correspondent who has just returned from Spain sends us the following report on the situation: One of the very greatest difficulties with which the Spanish Refugee Committee has to contend is the lack of transport facilities. In the first place all the roads, with the exception of the few main arteries, are extremely primitive, sometimes so filled with holes and deep ruts that it is impossible for a car to go more than five miles an hour. Now more than ever this difficulty is increased by the fact that all the traffic between Madrid and the Government territory

Miami at Bowling Green Game Notes
Oct. 13, 2012 • Doyt L. Perry Stadium • Bowling Green, Ohio
General Notes
• Miami season-long captains are Zac Dysert, Jaytee Swanson and Andy Cruse. There was no game captain this week
• Bowling Green won the toss and elected to defer. Miami received the opening kickoff, the seventh time in as many games this season that it has opened with possession.
• Bowling Green won its second straight game against Miami, snapping a six-game home losing skid. Prior to today, the Falcons' last series win at Doyt Perry Stadium came in 1997. The all-time series record is now 42-22-5 in favor of Miami, including 20-10-4 in Bowling Green.
Team Notes
• Miami scored a field goal on its opening possession Saturday after tallying touchdowns on the first drive in each of the previous two weeks. In the first four games, the initial touch resulted in three punts and a lost fumble.
• Miami's Mike Johns was credited with a sack during the second quarter on Saturday, the RedHawks' first sack in three games. Mwanza Waumulumba last put an opposing quarterback down against UMass on Sept. 22. As a team, Miami has just six sacks in seven games.
• Miami used 53 players from the 66-man travel squad during the game.
• Bowling Green's BooBoo Gates returned an interception 37 yards for a touchdown in the third quarter. It marked the second time in as many weeks that an opposing defensive back registered a pick-six against the RedHawks. Cincinnati's Camerron Cheatham gave the Bearcats a 7-6 lead with a 68-yard return.
Individual Notes
• With 198 passing yards, Zac Dysert moved up five notches on the NCAA's FBS career passing chart. He climbed ahead of Troy Kopp (Pacific/1989-93), Brian McClure (Bowling Green/10,280), Andy Dalton (TCU/10,314), Jared Lorenzen (Kentucky/10,354) and Robert Griffin III (Baylor/10,366). Dysert's current total of 10,444 ranks eighth in MAC history.
• Dayonne Nunley made his 11th career interception in the third quarter, moving him into sole possession of eighth place on Miami's all-time list. He entered the game tied with Bob Smith (1965-67), Sheldon White (1984-86) and Milt Bowen (1999-2001). It was also Nunley's second pick of the season.
• Alvonta Jenkins made his first career start, opening in a five-receiver set.
• Andy Cruse's 2-yard touchdown catch was his fourth of the season.
• Zac Murphy hit a 54-yard punt in the third quarter, his fifth this season of 50 yards or more. He now has 16 in his career that have covered more than half the field.
• Kaleb Patterson converted first half field goals of 36 and 44 yards, making him eight of 10 this season. The true freshman has been perfect of six attempts of OVER 35 yards, including four of four over 40.
• Zac Dysert has thrown a touchdown pass in six of the seven games this season and in 14 of the last 15 games dating back to 2011.
• Austin Boucher entered the game in the fourth quarter for his fourth appearance of the season.

COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo. – The Miami University hockey team's power play broke out of its slump in a big way, striking four times in a 6-1 win at Colorado College on Saturday.
With the victory, MU snaps a five-game winless streak and moves to 10-11-3 overall (4-9-1-1 National Collegiate Hockey).
The Tigers (3-17-4, 3-8-3-1 NCHC) scored eight minutes in when Cody Bradley converted a centering feed from Charlie Taft at the top of the crease to put the RedHawks behind 1-0.
CC buzzed around the MU net for long stretches of the first period, but Jay Williams stood tall in keeping the Tigers from getting another goal in the opening frame. The sophomore finished the period with 16 saves as the Tigers outshot the RedHawks 17-3.
Despite the territorial edge, a CC penalty with 6:13 left opened the door for MU's power play to make a difference. The Red and White special teams responded five seconds later as Riley Barber wristed a shot through traffic in the slot for his 15th goal of the year, evening the score at 1-1. Austin Czarnik and Matt Caito earned assists on the play. That goal ended Miami's 0-for-27 slump with the man advantage.
Forty-four seconds after the tying goal, the Tigers went to work on a power play of their own. The RedHawks' special teams helped again, not allowing a single shot in a successful penalty kill that left the teams locked in a 1-1 tie after 20 minutes of play.
The RedHawks created a pair of strong opportunities early in the second period. A Taylor Richart shot from the right side was kicked out to the left circle, but a follow up shot was fanned on with CC goalie Josh Thorimbert getting back into position. A few minutes later, the puck was worked to Barber in the high slot for a one-timer that went wide. The puck bounced back to Barber for a shot that Thorimbert stopped.
Miami's special teams came to the forefront again when Barber flung a wrist shot from the left faceoff circle into the far corner of the net for his second of the night 6:30 into the second period.
The floodgates opened from there as less than two minutes later, Justin Greenberg pounced on a rebound off a Matt Joyaux point shot and banged the puck in for his first-collegiate goal with 11:37 remaining in the period. Cody Murphy also earned an assist on the goal that made it 3-1 Miami.
A pair of CC penalties put MU on a 5-on-3 midway through the period. The Red and White's big night on the power play continued when Anthony Louis sniped a one-timer into the top corner at the 10:32 mark. Barber and Michael Mooney assisted on the goal with Mooney's helper good for his first collegiate point. It took 28 seconds for the RedHawks to score on their fourth-straight power play as Matthew Caito's shot from the point redirected off a Tigers' stick and into the net for his second goal of the year with 9:02 left in the middle stanza.
The RedHawks weren't done yet as Louis ripped a pass through the seam to a pinching Ben Paulides, who picked the corner for his second goal of the season. Bryon Paulazzo also assisted on the goal after digging the puck out from the boards and getting it to Louis. MU was whistled for a major penalty with 3:26 remaining in the period, but held CC off the board to take a 6-1 lead into the locker room after two periods.
Miami killed off the remaining 1:34 of the carryover penalty to start the third period. In fact, it was MU's penalty killing unit's time to shine in the final frame. The RedHawks successfully killed off a 5-on-3 that elapsed 1:53 midway through the period. Miami kept Colorado College off the score sheet the rest of the night.
CC finished the game with a 39-21 advantage in shots on goal, but MU's special teams proved the difference. The Red and White finished 4-for-5 on the power play and killed off all five of the Tigers' chances with the man advantage.
Twelve RedHawks notched at least one point with four posting multi-point outings. Barber (two goals, one assist) and Louis (one goal, two assists) tallied three points apiece while Czarnik (two assists) and Caito (one goal, one assist) finished with two. Louis' three-point night is a season best for the freshman while Caito recorded his first multi-point game of the season.
Williams made a career-high 38 saves to post his fourth win of the year while Thorimbert made 15 saves for CC.
The RedHawks are off until they host a two-game series against Western Michigan that begins on Feb. 7. That game is televised on CBS Sports Network and begins at 7 p.m.

Points to Ponder: It Ain't Just No Song & Dance
Points to Ponder
It Ain't Just No Song & Dance
Is contemporary worship really contemporary? Many traditional churches are trying to expand into "contemporary" worship, praise services, and just a generally more modern method. But what is worship? It comes from two words: worth ship. It means ascribing worth to something or to someone.
Can we define it and box it into an easily summarized description? As we look for contemporary styles of worship, what are we looking for - and why? Will you know it when you've found it? And when you do how will you know "this is it?"
Back in the days of King Hezekiah (715-686 BC) we see his reforms and his worship practices. He drew on the traditions of centuries earlier under King David's rule. From tradition he ordered something that looks fairly "contemporary": "And he stationed the Levites in the house of the LORD with cymbals, with stringed instruments, and with harps, according to the commandment of David, of Gad the king's seer, and of Nathan the prophet; for thus was the commandment of the LORD by His prophets. The Levites stood with the instruments of David, and the priests with the trumpets." (II Chronicles 29:25-26 NKJV)
Look at that! The priests played in the praise band! And for those who think anything more than an organ or a piano is sacrilege, we see the use of cymbals and string instruments was quite prevalent. Trumpets and choirs too: "And when the burnt offering began, the song of the LORD also began, with the trumpets and with the instruments of David king of Israel. So all the assembly worshiped, the singers sang, and the trumpeters sounded; all this continued until the burnt offering was finished..., the king and all who were present with him bowed and worshiped." (II Chronicles 29:27-29 NKJV)
That sounds like a pretty lively worship service - and it's in the Old Testament. In fact, if you look at the very last Psalm, Psalm 150, it's all about praising the Lord and using a variety of instruments to do it. The point of the matter is basically this: "Let everything that has breath praise the Lord." (Psalm 150:6)
But is this what worship is all about? Singing, playing instruments, and "getting happy in the Lord?"
Consider Job. After he had lost his family and his property to tragedy, he "got up and tore his robe and shaved his head. Then he fell to the ground in worship." (Job 1:20). How could he do that? Here's what he did: And he said: "Naked I came from my mother's womb, and naked shall I return there. The LORD gave, and the LORD has taken away; blessed be the name of the LORD." (Job 1:21 NKJV)
Likewise, we see the example of King David. After his adulterous union with Bathsheba and the killing of her husband, she gave birth to a son. Nathan the prophet of God convicted him of his sin before God and told him that part of God's judgment was that the child would die. David fasted and pleaded with God on the ground every night, begging for the boy's life. When the child died on the seventh day his servants worried that he would become so despondent that he might harm himself. But he did a surprising thing: "So David arose from the ground, washed and anointed himself, and changed his clothes; and he went into the house of the LORD and worshiped. Then he went to his own house; and when he requested, they set food before him, and he ate." (II Samuel 12:20 NKJV)
So we see three examples of worship; Hezekiah's praise service, the result of turning the people's heart back toward God. Then we have Job, after losing everything, turning to God in praise. His worship was not contingent on the blessings he had received in life, nor limited by the undeserved tragic loss of them. Then there's David, a man under judgment for the twin sins of adultery and murder. An innocent child is lost in the process. The death of one's own child is a unique kind of pain that only a parent who has experienced it can understand. Yet, with that terrible loss and the humiliation of knowing his sin had given the enemies of the Lord an occasion to blaspheme Him (II Samuel 12:14), he went to worship.
So what is worship? When life is going great or life is a great mess, it's good and appropriate to worship the Lord. In the ebb and flow of life, the roller coaster ride of good fortune and tough times, the one thing in life that is consistent is this: God is good, all the time; and All the time, God is good. If we lose sight of that, then nothing else in life makes sense.
"It is good to give thanks to the LORD, and to sing praises to Your name, O Most High; to declare Your loving kindness in the morning, and Your faithfulness every night, on an instrument of ten strings, on the lute, and on the harp, with harmonious sound. For You, LORD, have made me glad through Your work; I will triumph in the works of Your hands. O LORD, how great are Your works! Your thoughts are very deep. A senseless man does not know, nor does a fool understand this." (Psalm 92:1-6 NKJV)
In song, in thanksgiving, and in quiet reflection we can worship God. When we worship we are simply looking up, with our hearts and minds to the One who gave us breath and for Whose glory and greater purpose we live. Paul sums it up well:
"Rejoice always, pray without ceasing, in everything give thanks; for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus for you." (I Thessalonians 5:16-18 NKJV)

Going Rogue: An American Life
Going Rogue: An American Life (Paperback)
On September 3, 2008, Alaska Governor Sarah Palin gave a speech at the Republican National Convention that electrified the nation and instantly made her one of the most recognizable women in the world. As chief executive of Americas largest state, she had built a record as a reformer who cast aside politics-as-usual and pushed through changes other politicians only talk about: Energy independence. Ethics reform. And the biggest private sector infrastructure project in U.S. history. While revitalizing public-school funding and ensuring the state met its responsibilities to seniors and Alaska Native populations, Palin also beat the political "good ol boys club" at their own game and brought Big Oil to heel.
In this eagerly anticipated memoir, Palin paints an intimate portrait of growing up in the wilds of Alaska, meeting her lifelong love, her decision to enter politics, the importance of faith and family, and the unique joys and trials of life as a high-profile working mother. She also opens up for the first time about the 2008 presidential race, providing a rare mom's-eye view of high-stakes national politicsfrom patriots dedicated to "Country First" to slick politicos bent on winning at any cost. Going Rogue traces one ordinary citizen's extraordinary journey, and imparts Palin's vision of a way forward for America and her unfailing hope in the greatest nation on earth.
