Snohomish spring sports off to great starts
Panthers baseball, softball and boys soccer teams all sit in first place midway through their seasons

Snohomish hitting coach Andrew Reifers (black shirt, gray sweats) talks with the team during a morning practice last Thursday. The Panthers have won six of their first seven Wesco 4A North games.

Mitchell McCulley hits in the batting cage during a morning practice during spring break at Snohomish High School.
But nearly halfway through the season the Panthers have responded by claiming first place in the 4A Wesco North. Casey Flitsch and Garret Stich, two of the pitchers who started the season injured, are on their way back and others with no previous varsity pitching experience have stepped up to help the Panthers to their impressive start.
"There is no question that when you have three of your varsity pitchers go down with arm injuries, two with broken arms, that it causes one to really look into your entire staff and find people that can come in and pitch at the varsity level and shut the door on people," Hammons said. "At this particular point, we have pretty much pitched by committee and in doing that a lot of kids have had opportunities and they have done very well."
Junior Tanner Arrington and sophomore Ben Dmochowsky have both pitched for Snohomish this season after having no previous varsity pitching experience. Hammons said senior Jordan Prokop and junior Thomas Pennington also have done a nice job in relief.
While pitching was the biggest concern at the start of the season, Hammons said the veterans on his team have helped the Panthers jump out to a 6-1 league record.
"They are mentally ready for wars," Hammons said. "They have come out and they have played a solid seven innings every game. They've given us an opportunity to stay in games by playing good defense and our pitching staff has kept us close. And then our hitters have come through with clutch hits, timely hits that have given us a couple of victories."
The baseball team isn't the only spring sport finding success at Snohomish. The softball team and the boys soccer team are both off to undefeated starts. The soccer team defeated Mariner 2-1 last Wednesday to improve to 7-0-0 in league and 9-0-0 overall, and the softball team is 3-0 in league and 7-0 overall after defeating Lake Stevens last week and beating Glacier Peak on Monday night.
The soccer team lost eight starters from last year's squad that fell to Bellarmine Prep in the first round of the state playoffs, but haven't missed a beat in 2013.
"It's really been a focus on team and not just individuals and they have really bought into it and it's been fun," boys soccer head coach Dan Pingrey said.
Wednesday's victory over Mariner was Snohomish's fourth game in six days -- a busy stretch that exposed the Panthers to a variety of playing styles.
"For the (coaching) staff, that's why we're excited," Pingrey said. "We've played very big, fast and strong teams. We've played a couple of very crafty teams. We played a team that sat back against us and we have had to manage all of those in the course of those four games.
"Mentally I have been impressed. And ultimately (being strong) mentally is what is going to get us a championship."
The softball team has relied on its veteran players to jump out to its fast start. In the pitching circle, juniors Bailey Seek and Jennie Winston along with freshman Alyssa Simons, have helped the Panthers, and the hitting of juniors Katlyn Purvis and Trysten Melhart leads an offense that is averaging better than 11 runs per game.
Through seven games, Melhart has six triples. The next closest player in the league has two.
"Offensively, Trysten Melhart is on a tear like I have never seen," head coach Lou Kennedy said. "Katlyn Purvis is driving the ball hard. Jennie Winston is driving the ball hard. Anna Pisac, she's a monster out there right now, doubles and triples."
With all cylinders firing so far, Kennedy has high hopes for his team.
"I would hate to think too far ahead, but this team is capable of anything," he said. "I've never said that about one of my teams."
The Panthers get a real test tonight when they put their undefeated record on the line against 4A North preseason favorite Arlington.
All three of the coaches said the teams are very supportive of each other and the cumulative success has been a good experience for the kids.
"It's been kind of fun," Pingrey said. "We've seen a lot of the baseball guys and the softball girls that stop by at our games because we usually play later after their practice or their games and vise-versa. Our guys have been checking out some of their games before they come down to the field. I think that's all real positive."

Bringing back Tim Floyd: GREAT MOVE.
He is a defensive minded coach. Our biggest weakness: DEFENSE.
He is fiery and is a great motivator of his players. If you have watched a single game this year, you know our players quit on Scott and gave NO EFFORT.
To everyone saying he was bad when he coached here, you are very wrong. He did fine as our coach. His problems were rooted in the ****ty attitudes of Baron Davis and Jamal Mashburn. D-West liked him as a coach, so I am sure he is fine with this. Tim Floyd was an excellent hire in my opinion.

Founded in 1996 and based in Saint Paul, Minnesota, The Rose Ensemble performs vocal music that strives to stir the emotions, challenge the mind, and lift the spirit. Each performance illuminates centuries of rarely heard repertoire, bringing to modern audiences research from the world's manuscript libraries and fresh perspectives on history, languages, politics, religion and world cultures and traditions. With nine critically acclaimed recordings and a diverse selection of concert programs, the group has thrilled audiences across the United States and Europe with repertoire spanning 1,000 years and over 25 languages, including new research in Hawaiian, Swedish, Middle Eastern and American vocal traditions.
The Rose Ensemble is the recipient of the 2005 Chorus America Margaret Hillis Award for Choral Excellence, first prize winner in both sacred and secular music categories at the 2012 Tolosa Choral Contest in Spain (part of the European Choral Grand Prix). The group's concerts and recordings have been called "first class" (Neuss-Grevenbroicher Zeitung), "impassioned and brightly alive" (Choral Journal) and "engaging . .. satisfying" (Gramophone).

Rachel Barton Pine: The Violin Virtuoso Who Cheated Death - The Daily Beast
Praised by Fanfare for its "wonderful, vital and buoyant performances," Trio Settecento's passionate and authoritative interpretations renew the pleasures of hearing beloved music from the Age of Enlightenment while also revealing the delights of new discoveries. Imagination, vigor, technical polish and historical insight have made the Trio's performances appealing to audiences and critics alike.
Trio Settecento's new album, A German Bouquet, was released by Cedille Records in September 2009. It features a selection of German Baroque era works with popular pieces by Bach and Buxtehude, as well as rarely heard repertoire by Johann Schop, Johann Heinrich Schmelzer, Georg Muffat, Johann Philipp Krieger, Philipp Heinrich Erlebach and Johann Georg Pisendel. This CD follows the group's highly successful An Italian Sojourn in 2007, which includes baroque sonatas by Castelllo, Stradella, Corelli, Veracini and others. Wrote Gramophone of An Italian Sojourn, "There isn't a piece that doesn't impress. This is as good a collection for a newcomer to the Baroque as it is for those who want to hear these works performed at a high level."
Trio Settecento will continue to explore Europe's regional dialects in baroque music with future albums of music from France and the British Isles. Pine, Rozendaal and Schrader view these albums as "recital discs," presenting on CD the same type of program the Trio would play in concert.
Trio Settecento was formed after Pine, Rozendaal and Schrader came together in 1996 to record the complete violin sonatas of George Frederick Handel. The Trio's 2009-2010 season includes appearances at Columbia University in New York City, the University of Vermont in Burlington and the Chicago Early Music Festival. The Trio made its New York City debut at The Frick Collection in August, 2006, which was recorded for broadcast on WNYC. The Trio has also appeared at the Boston Early Music Festival and the Music Institute of Chicago's Baroque Chamber Music Festival, as well as other performances around the U.S.
All three members of Trio Settecento are dedicated pedagogues. They frequently give workshops and master classes at community music schools and universities and lead pre-concert discussions before their performances.

Named one of the top 25 ensembles in celebration of Early Music America's 25th anniversary in 2011, the Indianapolis Baroque Orchestra is dedicated to excellent and exuberant performance of seventeenth- and eighteenth-century music on period instruments. The orchestra was founded in 1997 and its current artistic director is Barthold Kuijken, internationally renowned Baroque flutist and distinguished Early Music pedagogue.
Members of the orchestra are some of the finest Baroque specialists in North America and are frequent collaborators with other well-known ensembles such as Bourbon Baroque, Apollo's Fire, Tafelmusik, Seraphic Fire and Washington Bach Consort.
Notable guest appearances by, among others, Julianne Baird, Stanley Richie and John Holloway have become highlights in the concert series the orchestra presents in Indianapolis and around the United States.

It's getting old and unbearable to watch. :(

But yeah, I'm aware Monty wouldn't like what I said.
George had 9 threes?
Gordon for George, straight up.
R. Anderson is not top 30. He's a 7 foot jump shooter that can't create his own shot. Far from top 30. The Hornets have too many guys that need to be set-up and not enough guys to set them up. Also, perimeter defense is horrendous. We need E. Gordon back in the line-up. AD & EG make this a different team. I hope Dell is trying to upgrade us at the PG position so that Vasquez can go back to being the back-up. I still don't understand why we drafted Rivers. We need players that can help us now. Everyone hates Aminu but he had a double double. Rivers gives us nothing night in night out and he's a fan favorite. I know he's 19 but so is AD and a bunch of other players that are contributing or contributed when they were 19. Last part of the rant. Monty needs help with implementing an offense. That's not his forte. Some of the issues may be personnel but scheme also has a lot to do with how bad the o is.
Funny how people are criticizing Anderson by saying he can't create his own shot yet he averages 16 ppg on 46% shooting and 37% from the arc while playing with the worst offensive backcourt/wing players in this league. These people need to get a clue.
Rivers is just fine and he plays the most difficult position on the floor. He's getting better and he needs to add weight. The Hornets are missing their big money people playing against teams who aren't.
If that guy ever comes back, and Davis is healthy, you're looking at a 2nd unit that brings in Anderson, Rivers, and Smith. Roberts remains the backup pg so Rivers backs up a the 2. If not, Rivers backs up the 1 and Mason comes in at 2. At this point Rivers will do MUCH better against a 2nd unit and it makes the Hornets bench top 10.
You would think after receiving a few very large game checks any animosity towards the franchise would vanish. Unless that guy is the greatest d-bag in the history of the sport, I will try to remain optimistic for the near future if they can just keep it together right now.
Yeah I believe a starting line-up of Gravy, Gordon, Aminu, Davis, and Lopez with the bench of Rivers (swing guard), Anderson ( mismatch forward/ 3pt specialist), Smith (back-up big), and Miller (back-up 3/2) is a pretty good play-off team. They just need to get healthy and gel.
At this point, I'd rather see Rivers start at the point over Vasquez if Gordon ever comes back. I like Rivers foot speed on both ends of the floor and he won't have to create as much playing next to Gordon.
Highlights of Lopez's night for any dangerously curious souls.
Rivers has just turned 20 and is one of the youngest guys in the league. Is also a runt.
How can people even start to form opinions of the guy's ceiling yet?
For everyone complaining about how we need to win now. Would it be nice if we were talented enough to do that? Sure. Fact is, with Gordon out and an inconsistent lineup, we're not talented enough to 'win now'. You know what's worse than sucking for a year? Getting good too quickly, not accumulating any assets, and being in the same position we were in last year 5-7 years down the road.
We want to see our team be competitive right now, and there is no doubt we are being competitive. We've not been outclassed too often this season, some may argue only once by the Knicks, although the Thunder did a pretty good job making us look foolish too. We have to improve, and not a single person is saying we don't need to improve, but let it happen naturally. What would you have this team do to win now? What improvement would you make that is realistic? I'd love to hear anyone's ideas, because I assure you there is nothing we can do with the pieces we have now that would improve us significantly. We, regardless of who we draft at the 10th spot, would not be any more competitive than we are now.
I think we need to get rid of lopez at the end of the year, he aint a starting Centre, really solid backup but he aint a starter.
Why get rid of Lopez? You just said it yourself, he is a solid backup. I think he is more than a solid backup center, and we will see his value as the season goes on, but why rid ourselves of a low priced asset? You won't get equall talent in return.
If it is to take our pick and Lopez and move into the top 3, then go ahead by all means. But I doubt any lotto team will do that.
If he needed to stay in college then that means he obviously has some growing and learning to do. He didn't stay so he's going to have to do his growing and learning in the NBA now. He didn't stay in college so that's a moot point. I don't think I've ever seen anyone leave college for the NBA and then once there say, "oh, I should've stayed in college, I think I'll go back". Moot point. I just pointed out the other day that adjustment is the key word for rookies. The adjustment for some is sometimes bigger than it is for others. As a rookie, there will be many nights of inconsistencies. He had what was probably the best game of his early career against the Knicks as far as scoring efficiently goes but I don't think his criticizers were anywhere to be found. Most of the team is young so there will be inconsistence along the way. I say as long as you keep seeing some kind of progress, then that's a good thing. That says you're headed in the right direction.
There is this thought that your bigs aren't go to guys if they can't create their own shot, and that just isn't true.
I do agree with you on Rivers. He just isn't very good right now, especially offensively. Huge liability on the floor and probably needs more time in college or in the D-league especially since he needs to mature physically.
Disagree on Aminu. He's inconsistent offensively because he doesn't do anything well outside of dunking. He's very good defensively, but below average offensively and that won't change anytime soon because he's limited with his shooting and ball-handling. Probably should be a backup on most teams.
They sign and traded him btw. Remember that Gustava Ayon guy? He didn't just magically bamf onto their roster when we got Anderson. No one thinks he's more of a go-to guy than any other elite 3pt shooter in this league.

EUGENE, Ore. – Senior Tori Paterra saved her best for last for the Miami University women's track and field team.
Paterra earned First-Team All-America honors by finishing third in the javelin at the NCAA Outdoor Track and Field Championships on Wednesday evening. She tossed a throw of 182-3 to post her highest finish in four tries at the national meet.
"That was the best start Tori had this year," Miami assistant coach (throws) Stacey Wannemacher said. "I knew she was ready from the first throw of the night. The second throw she allowed her lower body to get into the throw. She nearly connected on an even bigger throw on the very next throw. She competed extremely well and it was a great day for her."
Paterra achieved her throw, which was just over a foot shy of her school record, on her second try. That toss put her into the finals sitting in second place. Florida's Fawn Miller ended up winning the event with a mark of 190-8 while Oklahoma's Avione Allgood narrowly slipped past Paterra in the finals when her fourth throw landed at 182-4.
"I am so proud of Tori," Miami head coach Kelly Phillips said. "Nothing is more exciting than seeing a senior ending her career on this kind of high note."
This marks the second time that Paterra was named a First-Team All-American. In 2012, she placed seventh in the javelin throw. Her performance is the 13th All-American outing by a RedHawk in the program's history.

Everyone knows that diet plays a huge role in performance, and many cyclists carbo load before a big event.
If you're thinking about increasing your performance through carbohydrate-rich meals before your next outing, here are 7 amazing high-carb foods that will improve your times, give you plenty of energy and taste amazing.
Muffins as a Pre Race Snack
Starting your morning off with a muffin or two can be a great way to load up on carbs.
On average, a typical muffin has between 45 – 65g of carbs split fairly evenly between simple sugars and complex carbohydrates.
As it gets closer to race time you'll want to pick sweeter muffins, since your body won't have time to process and store complex carbs from whole wheat.
Pancakes & Waffles for a High Carb Breakfast
Another wonderful breakfast food for carbo loading is pancakes and waffles.
You can expect to pack in about 25g of carbs apiece, making them a great meal choice the day before competition.
You can maximize your body's ability to store glycogen by loading up on carbs like this for three days before you're set to ride.
If you're going to add syrup to your pancakes or waffles keep in mind that you'll be getting a big boost of extra carbs, but they'll all be in the form of simple sugars.
You can try reaching for a substitution if you're going for a long-distance ride, and something like peanut or almond butter adds a big kick of protein and fat while minimizing the amount of extra simple sugars.
Hearty Sandwiches
At about 20g of carbs per slice, sandwich bread is a great source of carbs for competition.
Depending on whether you're going the distance or riding in a short sprint, you'll be able to easily pick between whole wheat and white bread. Whole wheat takes longer for your body to break down, so it's a great source of energy over the long haul.
Fried Rice
Rice is a great alternative to potatoes, wheat and oats when it comes to finding a source for carbs.
It's a good choice for both short and long distances, since the mixture of complex and simple sugars inside of most types of rice is fairly equal. Each cup of cooked rice has 35g of carbohydrates.
Fried rice is a good pick for an all-around nutritious meal, with plenty of protein and a bit of fat in each serving.
Homemade fried rice with lean proteins are obviously going to be a bit healthier than takeaway, but it's hard to beat the convenience
Pasta Dishes
When it comes to carbo loading, pasta is the old standby.
Every cup of cooked pasta averages about 35g of carbs, and depending on whether you choose whole wheat or white pastas you have complete control over how fast the carbs hit your bloodstream.
There are so many pasta dishes to choose from that it's impossible to cover them all, but for the most part they all offer a pretty similar carbohydrate profile.
Everyone has different preferences when it comes to their favorite dish, but most dishes either come with tomato sauce or cream-based sauces. Tomato sauces have more carbohydrates, in the form of simple sugars, while cream-based sauce helps to round out your macronutrients and offer extra protein and fat.
Shepherd's Pie
This classic dish is a great way to get your carbs in before you compete.
The mashed potato topping gives you about 35g of carbs per serving, but mashed sweet potatoes are a healthier substitution. Mashed sweet potatoes pack in nearly 60g of carbs per serving, with 20g coming from simple sugars and the rest from complex carbohydrates.
Other veggies in shepherd's pie will add a few more carbs, especially peas and carrots, but the bulk of them will come from the mashed potatoes.
Pad Thai
If you're looking for a healthy, delicious twist on carbo loading you should give Pad Thai a try.
This Thai noodle dish is usually packed with lean protein and vegetables, healthy fats like sesame oil and 50g of carbohydrates per cup.
Unlike Italian-style wheat noodles, the rice noodles found in Pad Thai are made from starch. That means that, although they lack protein, rice noodles are full of simple and complex carbohydrates.
Give this meal a try whether you're going on a short ride or a marathon trip and you're sure to see the benefits of loading up on carbohydrates.

The call came yesterday.
Mrs. Koch isn't one to panic, but she was in a state.
It seems news of the Santa Elves had gone viral. This is not to say we're a town full of sneezing Santa's Helpers; when we say "viral," we mean the story of the Elves had gained massive interest on blogs and forums on the Internet.
Word of Mouth Gone Wild, now available on DVD and Blu-Ray.
In the simplest terms, the amount of letters has increased sevenfold. That's 700 percent.
And so, there is an immediate need for more Elves. Qualifications are simple: a kind heart and legible handwriting. There are more specifics here.
Santa gets the Elves all set up by writing the letters ahead of time. As you can imagine, this time of year he finds the need to delegate. The Elves add each child's name plus a personal P.S.
The Elves have a rip-roaring good time, and sometimes pause to read the letters to each other.
Occasionally, though, the room grows hushed and a few tears are blinked back.
The Christmas spirit is here in the town of Santa Claus, in a little museum. Do you live nearby? Maybe you can stop by and help out for a few hours and leave knowing you are truly one of Santa's Elves.

DOE and World Energy Leaders Launch Partnership for Energy Efficiency
May 26, 2009
U.S. Secretary of Energy Steven Chu met with energy leaders from around the world this weekend to launch the International Partnership for Energy Efficiency Cooperation (IPEEC), a high-level forum for facilitating improvements in global energy efficiency and encouraging market implementation of energy efficiency technologies. By promoting the exchange of information, best practices, policies, and measures that support energy efficiency efforts, this partnership will offer opportunities for the participating countries to create green jobs domestically while helping to reduce global greenhouse gas emissions. The signatories included the entire Group of 8 (G8), which consists of Canada, France, Germany, Italy, Japan, the Russian Federation, the United Kingdom, and the United States, as well as key emerging economies, including Brazil, China, India, Mexico, and the Republic of Korea. The International Energy Agency will host the IPEEC Secretariat in Paris, France.
The IPEEC partners agreed on an initial set of tasks for the draft work plan, which included the establishment of a Sustainable Buildings Network that will promote efficiency in residential, commercial, and industrial buildings; a compilation and summary of national energy efficiency action plans; an inventory and review of international energy efficiency initiatives; and improved methods for measuring and verifying progress toward domestic energy efficiency goals. The launch of the IPEEC was part of this weekend's three-day G8 Energy Ministers Meeting in Rome, where G8 members and other interested countries took steps to accelerate the implementation of energy efficiency measures in their countries. The Energy Ministers discussed new clean energy and energy efficiency technologies, ways to reduce greenhouse gas emissions, and investments countries can make to grow their economies and promote global security and development.

MANDEVILLE, La. - Some of the heaviest weather moved through St. Tammany Parish around noon on Thursday.
St. Tammany authorities have not received reports on flooding or damage.
Sandbags are available in Tangipahoa Parish until 3:30 p.m. at the Road and Bridge offices in Hammond and Roseland. (Get more information on sandbags, road closures and high water issues in Tangipahoa.)
Both of the parishes are closely monitoring river levels, which could be impacted by delayed rising on Friday, similar to what occurred during Hurricane Isaac.
Washington Parish officials said they experienced heavy rain. Officials have reports of wind damage to vehicles and a business along Highway 16 in the Enon community, which is south of Franklinton.

Several violent crimes reported over weekend
The Oxford Police Department is investigated several violent crimes, including robbery and rape that occurred over the weekend. (October 21, 2014, Page 3)
Crime drops in Oxford
In Oxford, all reported crimes in 2009 are lower than they were in the 2008, according to the FBI's annual Uniform Crime Report.
The report tracks crime statistics from cities and counties all over the country.
While Oxford Police Chief Mike Martin is pleased with the numbers, he said he expects them to climb a bit when the 2010 numbers are released next year.
"As many burglars as we've locked up this year, we are still having burglaries," Martin said. "We are working hard to be visible and keep this a safe place for our residents and visitors. But our crime has gone up this year. However, we are also recovering a lot of stolen property and making arrests which soothes that increase."
Martin said thieves might blame the increase in burglaries and thefts on the economy.
"I blame it on these skinny televisions," he said with a chuckle. "These things are so light, they can just pick up and carry them out the door with no effort." (September 15, 2010, Page 1)

Two velcro forefoot straps allow you to quickly slip the Skogs on or off your feet
yet provide a snug fit for walking.
Thick yet supple leathers without additional dyes keep the leather breathable, durable and comfortable.
The Joya sole is made from two pieces of PU, softer on top and firmer below. Both encapsulated by a very thin and durable film (made by 3M).
The softer provides cushioning and the firmer support/stability as the foot strikes. The two combine to provide a cushioned stable rebound effect as you walk. Joya shoe absorb shock and move you forward.
Joya footwear featuring an anti-slip sole (e.g., Ascona, Cruiser) utilize the world-leading Anti-Slip Technology. It is an outsole construction that allows consumers to experience Joya's luxury comfort while they work. Precision Testing Laboratories Inc. of Nashville, TN tested Anti-Slip Technology with outstanding results: a 0.94 gradient on dry surfaces and a 0.88 gradient on wet surfaces. As with all Joya footwear, it is recommended to avoid contact with aggressive fluids (disinfectants, nitro, acids, oil, blood etc.), salts, fats, proteins and other aggressive substances.
Joya shoes are unbelievably soft and like a trampoline put a spring into your step. Slip them on, get going and enjoy.
Thanks to the special shape of the sole and our technology, you don't need any special training or instruction.
Joya is one of the most sought after shoes in Europe and is now available in the U.S.
Joya is the first shoe with a clever system of air ducts in the sole which pump large amounts of air into the shoes' interior with every step taken.
Joya's mission is to develop a new generation of comfort shoes that give people the physical feeling of well-being and the emotional sense of joy and happiness.

Munich Climate Insurance Initiative (MCII)
The Munich Climate Insurance Initiative (MCII) was launched by Munich Re in April 2005 in response to the growing realisation that insurance-related solutions can support the adaptation to climate change advocated in the Framework Convention and Kyoto Protocol. This initiative brings together insurers, experts on climate change and adaptation, NGOs and policy researchers intent on finding solutions to the risks posed by climate change. MCII provides a forum and gathering point for insurance-related expertise on climate-change impact issues.
MCII has four objectives:
MCII was founded by representatives of Germanwatch, IIASA, Munich Re, the Munich Re Foundation, the Potsdam Institute for Climate Impact Research (PIK), the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology (SLF), The Energy and Resources Institute (TERI), the Tyndall Centre, the United Nations University Institute for Environment and Human Security (UNU-EHS), the World Bank, and independent experts. The group is open to new members (e.g. representatives of other insurance or reinsurance companies, climate change and adaptation experts, NGOs and policy researchers) seeking solutions to the risks posed by climate change.
Implementing the Munich Climate Insurance Initiative (MCII) in support of the Nairobi work programme

ANSONIA - No one was injured in a house fire early Thursday morning on State Route 49 in Ansonia.
"We were called with a [report] of smoke in the building, and when we arrived, there were visible flames in the back," said Chief Bill Clark of the Ansonia Fire Department. The fire started in the attic and back garage area showing the most visible damage.
The cause is not known at this time.
While the fire was out soon after, firefighters remained on the scene to put out hot spots.
The Ansonia Fire Department responded to the three-alarm call starting at 3:30 a.m., the second alarm went off about 10 minutes later at 3:40 a.m. and third alarm about 35 minutes later at 4:15 p.m., according to Chief Clark.
The fire required nine other fire departments mostly for manpower and mutual aid to rotate more than 50 firefighters to assist on the scene.
The three-alarm fire included help from the City of Greenville's Ladder Truck Engine 171, and fire departments from Union City, Ind. and Ohio, Osgood, Burkettsville, North Star, St. Henry, Greenville Township and Rossburg.
The husband and wife who resided in the home were not injured and are being assisted by the Darke County Red Cross, Clark said.

A window on the past
For Tim Frieson, the sweeping wall of the west-facing windows in the Oxford Middle School Cafeteria reveals more than just a treeline and surrounding buildings. In a most literal way, it's a window to his childhood. In "A Conversation With …" Lucy Schultze talks with Frieson about his memories of growing up in Freedmen Town and what he's trying to do today to help youngsters much like him.

This is a package of candied fruit that has been packaged for spacflight on board a Soviet spacecraft. The fruit is divided into small, bite-sized pieces and contained in a plastic envelope. A cosmonaut would be able to break off small bits without shedding crumbs into the spacecraft.
As is true for all food manufactured for spaceflight, spacefood must be nutritious, lightweight, and easily stored. As astronauts and cosmonauts spend increasing amounts of time in space, the food must also be appealing.
This particular piece of space food was never flown in space and was donated to the museum by an American who obtained the food while on a visit to the USSR.

The only difference in this game is the Kings' turnovers and fouls. They're outshooting the Jazz and keeping pace on the boards. Several of our guys aren't hitting shots much.
I've been scanning through these game threads looking for Cy's regular repping of Roger Braille... Can't find any. Anybody know what's up with that? Thanks. I'll rep helpful answers.

OXFORD, Ohio -- Kent State parlayed three hits and two walks into two runs in the eighth and that was just enough for a hard-fought 2-1 victory over Miami Friday night at McKie Field. The outcome creates a three-way tie between the Golden Flashes, RedHawks and Buffalo atop the Mid-American Conference East Division.
The series opener between the top two teams in the league's preseason poll was exactly as billed as aces Brooks Fiala of Miami and Taylor Williams of Kent State battled late into the contest.
The RedHawks (14-16, 7-3) took a 1-0 lead in the third on a RBI single by Alex Johnson. One batter earlier, Matt Honchel doubled to the gap in right center to extend his hitting streak to 15 games.
Fiala was cruising along until the eighth, allowing six hits and a walk through seven innings. But a leadoff single and passed ball put a runner on second. After Fiala struck out his fifth batter of the game, pinch hitter Tommy Monnot doubled to left to even the score at 1-1. An infield single and walk loaded the bases, forcing Miami to the bullpen. Seth Varner faced Evan Campbell, who worked the count full, then fouled off three pitches before taking a ball that just missed for the game-winning RBI. Charles Zubrod, the third Miami pitcher, kept the bases loaded by getting an infield pop and fly ball to center.
Miami tried to rally in the eighth off reliever Brian Clark, but missed by the smallest margin. Kevin Bower singled to right with one out and was replaced by pinch runner Marcus Makuch. After the second out of the inning, a failed pickoff attempt moved Makuch to second. Scott Slappey hit a line drive up the middle that was just soft enough for Kent State shortstop Sawyer Polen to make the grab and end the threat.
Williams (6-1) surrendered six hits and the one run, while striking out 11 in seven complete innings. Clark struck out four of the seven batters he faced in the final two innings for his third save of the year. Fiala took the hard-luck loss to fall to 4-4.
The two teams continue their series tomorrow afternoon, with first pitch slated for 3 p.m.
