Feeding birds
Waseem Hamideh, 16, from Texas, feeds the birds at the Inner Harbor in the late afternoon sun. Although Baltimore wasn't hit with the big snowstorm that was predicted for yesterday, winds whipped down Baltimore city streets today, making the low temperatures feel even colder.

text: STYLE Interviews George Clooney: Style Icon Back to Top ▲ George Clooney: Style Icon George Clooney: Style Icon AskMen Editors Share on Facebook Share on Twitter 0 Shares Why He's A Style Icon George Clooney seemed to follow the latest trends in the 1980s, but something happened in the 1990s: He grew up and showed the world how a man should dress. The no-nonsense haircut replaced the floppy kid-next-door look and the clothes went monochromatic with the first Ocean's film in 2001. Since then he has embodied an updated old-Hollywood style that everyone loves, with black suits for those formal events and gray chinos with white T-shirts for his downtime. His biggest contribution to fashion has been his bringing back of the suit as a fashion mainstay. While so many men fell victim to the idea that jeans are appropriate for every occasion, thanks to George Clooney, it suddenly became cool again to wear a suit. This worked because George Clooney pulled the look off without a tie, which appealed to men because it made them feel free. Also, his attitude of pretending not to notice how dapper he looked made it all the more appealing. Dress The Clooney Way Aside from the classic haircut (which George Clooney claims to cut himself), the black, white and gray color scheme, his crisp white dress shirts sans tie, his sleek black oxfords, and those wraparound shades, George Clooney's look is truly embodied by the dark charcoal suit. To swipe George Clooney's classic style, find a charcoal suit with a modern cut, like this Banana Republic dark charcoal suit, and wear it with an open-collared shirt. Look for a suit with a three-button closure, a notch lapel, flap pockets at the hip, and a rear center vent. The trousers should be without pleats or cuffs; this gives the suit the kind of modern European look George Clooney likes to sport.

So the Yankees probably dodged a lethal bullet in not trying to match the Mariners' offer, even if it does remove their best hitter from the lineup for now.
But the fact is, they'll probably survive this blow, for a number of reasons. For one, the money they are saving on Cano can now be applied toward adding another power bat, maybe Shin-Soo Choo or Carlos Beltran, and another starting pitcher.
In fact, the Yankees can say that on balance, they had a good Friday because Hiroki Kuroda, their ace for five months of the 2013 season until his September fade, had agreed to return for another year.
And assuming MLB and the Nippon Baseball League come to an agreement on new rules for the posting system, they will be all-in for Masahiro Tanaka, should he become available.
Plus, Ervin Santana, Matt Garza and Ubaldo Jimenez, all viable short-term solutions, are still on the board, and Michael Pineda, more than a year removed from shoulder surgery, will be in camp competing for a spot in the rotation.
Those are the players who are likely to have more of an impact on the 2014 Yankees than Cano would have had. After all, Cano had an outstanding 2013 season -- .314-27-107 and an .899 OPS with virtually no protection in the lineup -- and the Yankees still finished only four wins above mediocrity and out of the playoffs for only the second time in nearly two decades.
Besides, even if the Yankees don't pursue a high-profile second baseman to replace Cano -- free agent Omar Infante and the Cincinnati Reds' Brandon Phillips, signed through 2017, have been mentioned as possible targets -- they can at least start the season with a veteran, Kelly Johnson, at second. Johnson is a left-handed hitter who hit 16 home runs last year and should benefit, as Cano did, from the lefty-friendly dimensions of Yankee Stadium.
The bottom line is, both sides did well for themselves here. Even if he didn't get the $300 million he had reportedly been asking for, Cano got his 10-year deal and a contract the equivalent of Albert Pujols', which is the third-most lucrative in baseball history.
And the Yankees both avoided the trap of another anchor of a contract, and freed up some resources to attend to the numerous and very real needs of their aging roster.
To paraphrase Jay Z, who is said to have masterminded Cano's deal with the Mariners, the Yankees may have had 99 problems, but now Cano ain't one of them.
Now they can attend to the 98 that remain.

Title: 1
Author: The Beatles
KDL Description:
It's always funny to hear a 4-year-old sing "Yellow Submarine!"
-Liz at Gaines
Amazon Description:
The Beatles / 1 is comprised entirely of #1 hits from the U.S and UK Charts. The Beatles / 1 was originally released in 2000, breaking records by debuting at the top of the charts in 35 countries, and going on to sell over 31 million copies worldwide. It remains to this day the most emphatic introduction to The Beatles' career-spanning dominance of pop music through the 1960's. Apple Corps Ltd and EMI are proud to release The Beatles / 1 (Remastered) as a digi-pack, and feature the critically acclaimed 2009 remastered recordings. Each track was remastered by a dedicated team of engineers at EMI's Abbey Road Studios in London over a four year period utilizing state of the art recording technology alongside vintage studio equipment. Painstaking efforts were taken to carefully maintaining the authenticity and integrity of the original analogue recordings. The result of this process is the highest fidelity the songs have seen since its original release, and the experience is simply suburb. In addition the 32 page booklet remains faithful to the original release and features a foreword by George Martin, international singles cover art and recording/release information on each #1 track.

Ok this isn't the first child I have breastfed, but this is the first time I have wondered about this. With my second son I ate whatever while BF-ing, but I came across some threads online that said a breastfeeding mama shouldn't eat sushi or spicy food, and that Listeria could possibly be transferred to baby through breast milk?
I'm currently BF-ing my 2-week-old and really would love some sushi, feta cheese, and Thai food lol. Is it safe? Do you guys eat it?
Mommy to beauties DS1 (7), DS2 (4, autism), & DS3 (2)
and many angel babies
I eat it. Never heard of otherwise.
Yes, yes. I'm fabulous. Moving on...
Spicy foods - yum!
Here is a great webpage http://www.kellymom.com/nutrition/mom/mom-foods.html
The only reason I avoid some sushi is the mercury in fish such as tuna. Salmon and veggie and fish roe and mmmmmmmmmm... sushi
And this is from a really good medical page talking about how Listeria is not passed through breastmilk :
"Foodborne infection — Some foods, such as deli meats, soft cheeses, refrigerated meat spreads, and other items are not recommended during pregnancy due to the risk of ingesting a bacteria known as listeria. Listeria can cause a mild illness in adults and a serious or life-threatening infection in infants who are infected during pregnancy. However, women who are breastfeeding do not need to avoid or limit these foods; listeria cannot be passed through breastmilk."
(Bolding mine)
Thanks ladies!!! :) I would love to hear from more moms who eat these things, it would make me feel better!
Mommy to beauties DS1 (7), DS2 (4, autism), & DS3 (2)
and many angel babies
I'm waiting to have my first baby, but my best friend didn't restrict her diet while breastfeeding, and she loves Tabasco and spicy foods and sushi and all sorts of cheeses. She currently has a healthy 2 1/2 year old who breastfed to almost 2 years old.
I see no reason not too other than mercury...I stayed away from it all through my pregnancy and the first 6 months or so....DS is 11 months old now and I've only had a bit of it twice...just because of the high amounts of mercury in the fish though...not because of it being raw. So I just want to limit what can transfer over and yes, the mercury can transfer over...so just limit the amount is what I would suggest.
Lord Jesus Christ, Son of God, have mercy on me, a sinner.
By the way....mercury is in all the fish that's freshwater....not just tuna....tuna just tends to have higher amounts. Mercury is in Salmon too...wish it wasn't.
Lord Jesus Christ, Son of God, have mercy on me, a sinner.
, mama to Amelie (May 2010), early loss (October 2011), and James (September 2012)
Hi there mama!
We only eat raw cheese and dairy in our home. It's totally safe to do. Sushi would be fine as well. I wouldn't stress so much. Your body probably needs those nutrients. Just stick with more salmon than tuna etc and no shark ;-) enjoy!
Loving wife to DH mama to DS1 3/13/09 , DS2 4/20/11 and DS3 1/12/13 Professional and attempting to while
here is a great guide to fish/mercury: http://www.toronto.ca/health/fishandmercury/pdf/guide_eat_fish.pdf
Women in India breastfeed , women in Thailand breastfeed, and spicy foods are common in those cultures. Oh, now i am hungry for a Spicy Tuna roll from Himawari's ....I have eaten sushi only once since the baby has been born (LO is 6 mo old) But if DH werent working so much - I would be eating it more often!
Happy at Home Mama to DD 4/95 DS 4/98 and DS#2 8/10
Original poster, I would avoid it only because your immunity isn't likely to be what it normally is so soon after giving birth. If you can wait a month or so, you should be back to normal, IMO. But that is just how culturally, we do it. Mother is given the mildest food possible during the first 3 weeks or so, and for another 3 weeks, slowly introduce foods back in.
Isn't feta cheese pasteurized in most places these days, though? That should be fine to eat, I would think!
Motherhendoula, women in India are not given any spicy food in the first weeks postpartum. If anything, the diet is stricter than for pregnant moms.
Other than the mercury in fish concerns, the PPs answered it. All those things are safe while BFing. I can't wait to eat smoked salmon again. I want an everything bagel with cream cheese & salmon delivered to me at the hospital.
"Unthinking respect for authority is the greatest enemy of truth."- Albert Einstein
If you want more confidence in the safety of it, just think of this mama over here in Cape Cod...
Last night for dinner and something I love to eat regularly is homemade buffalo wings and homemade blue cheese dip!!! I use blue cheese that is made with raw milk and my wings are very spicy!!
My favorite food and I ate the wings through pregnancy (not blue cheese, sigh) and I think in part that is why DD LOVES spicy food.
It is fine to eat most things while breastfeeding. More concerns arise with alcohol rather than foods. Limited portions of any foods are great. Your baby will be fine with your choices in food. It is when you are consuming large portions several times when it is more of a concern. I would still recommend eating foods containing mercury only once per week as it can pass thru breastmilk.
Foods that you were cautioned on when pregnant aren't as much of concerns while breastfeeding. I would only use caution if you notice that your newborn has stomach issues within 24 hours of eating those items. Keep a journal of fussiness and gassy babies. Note the food that you ate that day and the day before. You may notice foods that are more suseptable to creating upset tummies for your baby.
Otherwise, eat to your heart's desire.
Because you are breastfeeding, your baby has something called a breastfeeding gut. Your baby's immunity is building up along with each feeding. Your baby is able to fight off colds and sicknesses because of the immunity that you are passing to baby.
*Many harmful substances can be passed thru breastmilk. Please avoid alcohol and medications unless perscribed by your doctor. You may ask them at what level of harm does that medication range within their L1-L4 chart. L1 is not harmful, whereas L4 is very harmful.
Tina Black
Blessings of Birth Doula & Childbirth Services
This is not evidence based. Occasional alcohol intake while breastfeeding has not been shown to affect the baby. The big issue with alcohol is a drunk parent, not alcohol in breastmilk.
I'd write more but nak.
eta: sadly, most MDs are also woefully ignorant about breastfeeding and medications.
Just chiming in here. I'm BFing my 2nd and have never avoided soft cheeses, only unpasteurized ones while pregnant, but not even that while nursing (though I don't eat them regularly or anything). I did avoid sushi while preg with DS1, but ate it pretty regularly while preg with DS2 because I really craved it a lot, and decided that as long as I either made it myself fresh or ordered it fresh only at reputable restaurants, I'd be safe. Never had any issues or problems. I'll even admit to an occasional glass of a good wine while BFing, and I simply HAD to have some (admittedly weak) homemade eggnog at Christmas while pregnant with both sons. As for mercury in fish, I only buy wild-caught tuna (and fish less than once a week), and only eat canned on occasion (once a month or so). I think we worry too much as a society. Yes, we should try to avoid potential toxins and should eat healthier, especially while nourishing our children, but honestly I think the fluoride in our drinking water is probably more harmful than mercury in the fish we eat on occasion. And give me a big, fat sushi roll (yummm) any day over a sugar-laden box of french fries. And really, who ever heard of anybody getting sick on some yummy soft cheese in our day and age? Besides, what's a better filter for your child's food than YOU? Just my 2 cents.
I have to go nurse the baby now, so HTH. :)
Wife to since '98; Homeschooling, just completed my doctorate & becoming crunchier by the day; Mom to DSs: 06/10,12/05, & 1/99 & (3/15)
i avoided those foods actually.
i avoided everything i avoided during pregnancy for the first few months, maybe 6 months and i avoided sushi for the first year.
spicy food which i LOVE because had a reaction with dd.
sushi = because i was paranoid about its affect on ME. what if i became so sick that i could not bf my child.
however unpateurised cheese i avoided during pregnancy but ate them with gusto after birth.
i recall my ob talk about japanese women in his practise. he practised in japan for a few years. because sushi was such a part of their diet for so long, nothing ever happened to them while pregnant to ever stop eating sushi.
wonder if the same would apply to my dd. sushi has been a big part of her diet since she was 18 months old.
I ate sushi while pregnant, so that's not a concern of mine.
Re: alcohol-many midwives suggest drinking a good stout beer to HELP with let down (Sammy Smith's Oatmeal Stout was actually formulated originally for lactating mothers).
that is so cool.
My MW actually suggested a Guinness (yuck) stout if I was having let down issues and everything else was as it should.
Never needed it but I laughed when she suggested it.
Lol love this!!

Tuna live in the ocean, so they are not freshwater fish, but unfortunately most water is contaminated with mercury, oceans, rivers and lakes. This link gives a good run down of mercury amounts in various fish: http://www.americanheart.com/presenter.jhtml?identifier=3013797 Salmon is actually pretty low on the contamination list, and I would feel ok with eating it. Look for wild caught Alaskan Salmon, as they are the most sustainably fished.
Overall, salmon is low...because they include the wildcaught Alaskan in the numbers...other sources of salmon, however, is rather high...and is where most restaurants get there inventory. :(
Lord Jesus Christ, Son of God, have mercy on me, a sinner.

About OCHA Somalia
OCHA has mobilized and coordinated humanitarian efforts in Somalia since 1999. The humanitarian crisis in Somalia remains significant and OCHA aims to ensure a well-coordinated, effective and principled inter-agency humanitarian response. By providing a coherent approach to humanitarian action in Somalia, OCHA helps to avoid duplication of aid response and maximizes resources.
Somalia is slowly emerging from more than two decades of civil war. However, humanitarian needs remain vast and Somalia's humanitarian crisis remains among the largest and most complex in the world. After two years of incremental improvements following the devastating famine in 2011, a lethal mix of drought, surging food prices, increasing malnutrition, insecurity and slow funding has plunged the humanitarian situation into significant decline.
About 3.2 million people are in need of life-saving or livelihood support. Inadequate basic social services continue to undermine the resilience of the people. Coping capacities are severely stretched and vulnerable families are left with limited to no coping mechanisms and risk being pushed further into destitution and relying on humanitarian assistance. An estimated 635,000 displaced people in settlements need support to meet basic minimum standards including education, health, shelter and water, sanitation and hygiene. Malnutrition rates also remain among the highest in the world, with 218,000 children under the age of five acutely malnourished; about 43,800 children are so malnourished they risk dying.
The fragile humanitarian situation is against a backdrop of abject poverty. Coverage, quality and access to basic social services in the country remain extremely low. Only one in three Somalis has access to safe water; one in every 10 Somali children die before seeing their first birthday; one in 18 women die in childbirth; the majority of displaced people live in sub-standard shelter.
OCHA Somalia field presence
Access to parts of Somalia remains a key challenge due to insecurity. Despite this, OCHA Somalia continues to evolve to reflect the humanitarian and operating landscape in Somalia and has offices in Mogadishu and seven larger towns throughout the country, and an office in Nairobi, Kenya.
OCHA Somalia structure
OCHA Somalia comprises five substantive units: coordination, information management, communications, funding and administration.
OCHA's mission
In line with OCHA's mission statement, OCHA Somalia mobilizes and coordinates effective and principled humanitarian action in partnership with national and international actors to:
- Alleviate human suffering in complex emergencies;
- Promote preparedness and prevention efforts to reduce future vulnerability.

The Delaware Art Museum has a strong and diverse volunteer group. These individuals provide a valuable service by offering their time and talent to support, strengthen and improve the Museum, which ultimately strengthens and improves our Community. Duties and time commitment vary according to Museum needs. The majority of volunteers work on an on-call basis. Details of current opportunities are listed below.
Seeking new Docents
Learn about art in an engaging and encouraging environment! The Delaware Art Museum is currently accepting applicants for its September Docent training program. If you are seeking a rewarding volunteer experience, enjoy learning and working with the public, and have an interest in art, we invite you to apply.
Museum Docents provide tours of the galleries for visitors of all ages and inform the community about the Museum's collections and special exhibitions. Candidates are not required to have a background in art to become a Docent, but must be willing to learn and have fun!
Volunteer Docents prepare for the role of educator through a weekly training program that encompasses art history, tour skills, and public speaking. We are looking for people with enthusiasm, flexibility, professionalism, imagination, and a willingness to learn about art. Experience in art, art history, public speaking, or education is helpful, but not required. The Delaware Art Museum Docents are an enthusiastic group who enjoy taking trips to other museums, meeting and discussing the museum's collection and exhibits with its curators, and researching and learning about art together.
The new training class will begin in September 2015 and end June 2016. The program requires a weekly commitment (every Tuesday for 3 hours, excluding holidays).
For more information, contact Cynthia Smith at email@example.com or call 302.351.8514.

I overclocked to 3.0ghz, same voltage with stock cooler, i did stress test, according to Real Temp it got to 75c highest, and when its hot in the room at 100% load i'd say it would each 85c at least.
Is this bad, i mean real bad or is it ok for stock cooler? im hoping to replace it by monday, or tuesday because im ordering a better cooler, much better cooler i just need advice if to turn it off for now the overclock and re-enable when i got the cooler!
According to my TEMP MONITOR LCD on front cpu was only at 48c on stress but all i done is shuved the sensor into the heatsink at the far back near the top which is inaccurate so im like add 20c onto that, and thats the real temp. like 68c on lcd.
What is safe temperatures for this type of overclock am i pushing it too far? this was measured on Tj. Max tool, Tj. Max was 100c.
Any ideas?
Re: Q6600 3.00GHZ @ STOCK COOLER
That's pretty hot. Personally I would ignore the case temp sensor, you already know that's not accurate. I'd leave the speed at default until I had the aftermarket cooler. My personal cutoff is 50c, anything over that bothers me.
Re: Q6600 3.00GHZ @ STOCK COOLER
Re: Q6600 3.00GHZ @ STOCK COOLER
It says G0 but then it says Stepping: B but Revision: G0 i think it that way.
Also it seems stable at these temps, when i did a test on normal i get about the same temps stressed anyways.
Re: Q6600 3.00GHZ @ STOCK COOLER
I would agree that is too hot as well. Real temp is about 5C less than Hwmonitor for me. I would probably just clock it back down until you get a better cooler.
Re: Q6600 3.00GHZ @ STOCK COOLER
Intels states max thermal spec is 62.2C http://processorfinder.intel.com/det...px?sSpec=SL9UM
Re: Q6600 3.00GHZ @ STOCK COOLER
62.2 for B3, 71 for G0
Re: Q6600 3.00GHZ @ STOCK COOLER
Re: Q6600 3.00GHZ @ STOCK COOLER
Fixed the overclock!
CPU Speed: 3.00GHZ
Idle Temp: 45c
Load Temp: 60c
Those idle and load temperatures are based on the night, when the room is hot after two pc's generating alot of heat, also quite hot outside now summer is coming up, so that is what i have seen so far.
Notice: Load temp is based on a 100% Load at a period of 15 minutes constant, i would never experience that if im playing games even with any application to be honest, so i can say this is now safe.
Solution: Lower Voltage! 1.450v to 1.300v - It is stable i done a couple test's with stressing etc and it is fine and working smoothly, iv'e still orderd a better heatsink for it so that will lower it even more, im guessing Idle: 35c - Load: 55c Im hoping!

In Fact...
The Nation is a finalist in the single-topic-issue category of the National Magazine Awards for "Death Trip: The American Way of Execution" (Jan. 8/15, 2001). This featured a long article by Robert Sherrill evoking the cruel anomalies of capital punishment, with companion pieces by Bruce Shapiro and Marion Gross. Salih Booker and William Minter's article "Global Apartheid" (July 9, 2001) is a finalist in the magazine category of the World Hunger Year's Harry Chapin Media Awards, which honor writing on hunger and poverty issues.
The Rolling Thunder Down-Home Democracy Tour made its debut in Austin, Texas, on March 23, and by all accounts it lived up to progenitor Jim Hightower's vision of "a country fair with guts, a revival with a reason, a concert with consciousness and a festival with funk." It was conceived as a latter-day chautauqua, devoted to bringing people together for education, speeches, organizing, coalition-building, socializing, entertainment and fun. "Let's put the party back in politics," says Hightower. In Austin, a crowd of 6,000 turned up at the Travis County Expo Center to attend workshops, listen to rousing speeches by Molly Ivins, Michael Moore, Granny D. and Representative Jesse Jackson Jr. and to shimmy and shake to the music of MC Overlord, Ruben Ramos, Marcia Ball and Michelle Shocked. Moore described his fight with his publisher, Rupert Murdoch-owned HarperCollins, which pressed him to tone down his new book, Stupid White Men, after September 11. Moore refused to change it, and the book is now--irony of ironies--sitting atop the New York Times bestseller list. Jackson condemned spending $95 billion to hunt down Osama bin Laden--including a $15 billion bailout for the airlines--while stiffing public education and healthcare. With Rolling Thunder duly launched, Hightower urges progressives to make it happen in your city. For information on how, and a schedule, see www.rollingthundertour.org.
Re the new $2,000 limit on hard-money donations, Hotline, the newsletter for political insiders, points out that George W. Bush had 61,972 people max out (i.e., give $1,000) to his 2000 primary campaign. If that number contributes $2,000 each just for the 2004 primaries, Bush will start his re-election campaign with a financial base of nearly $124 million.
As a result of the recession, the number of billionaires declined from 551 to 497 in 2001, according to Forbes. Still, their combined wealth added up to $1.54 trillion. The total GNP of all the nations of sub-Saharan Africa was $929.3 billion.
Our President sheds light on the question of poverty as a source of terrorism. In Monterrey, Mexico: "We fight against poverty because hope is an answer to terror." In Lima, Peru: "You can't alleviate poverty if there's terror in your neighborhood. It's impossible to achieve what we want if terrorists run free."

As of Tuesday, November 22, 2011
© Copyright 2015 Gwinnett Daily Post
DULUTH -- Facing an opponent dressing just eight players, Georgia Tech's women's basketball team's goal was to wear down visiting Kennesaw State in their meeting Tuesday night.
The Yellow Jackets did just that, as Danielle Hamilton-Carter posted her first career double-double with 14 points and 10 rebounds, and Tyaunna Marshall added 14 points and five boards to cruise to a 91-54 win before 942 fans at the Arena at Gwinnett Center.
All but one of the 14 players that took the floor for Tech (4-0), ranked No. 25 in the recent ESPN/USA Today Coaches' Poll, broke into the scoring column, with Tjasa Gortnar also reaching double figures with 10.
And with six available players over 6-feet tall compared to just four for Kennesaw State, the Tech had the Owls (2-2) outsized as well as outmanned, and it showed, with the Jackets scoring 72 of their 94 points in the paint.
"Obviously, I'm pleased with the balance we had on the offensive end inside and outside," Tech coach MaChelle Joseph said. "It was a great chance to play a lot of people. Credit Kennesaw State. I really thought this is one of the better teams they had. I know they're a little short-handed on the perimeter, and it's tough to play a team like Georgia Tech that presses for 40 minutes when you only have three or four guards.
"I really felt like we did a good job of getting the ball inside -- that was a goal for the game -- and controlling the boards. ... We did a good job getting post touches."
With four players not dressed out due to injury and two others -- including Collins Hill grad Bria Young -- suspended for the game, the short-handed Owls gamely battled to stay close.
An early 7-2 run pulled Kennesaw State to within 13-9 after Ashley Holliday's 3-pointer with 13:22 left in the first half.
But Mo Bennett and Marshall helped Tech answer with a 15-5 run over the next 5:18 with four points each to push the lead into double digits for good at 28-14 after LaQuananisha Adams' layup with 8:04 left in the half.
The Jackets then limited KSU to just one field goal in the final 5:12, ending the half on a 13-3 run, with five of those points coming from Hamilton-Carter, that sent them into intermission with a commanding 51-25 lead.
The 6-4 junior from Sweden, who sat out the first 10 games last season due to the NCAA's international transfer rules, had a big first half with nine points and five rebounds, and used much of the first half to increase her comfort level with her game and her teammates.
"It feels great," Hamilton-Carter said. "I'm really excited to be able to start out the season with the team. ... I'm just going to move hard from here and keep working hard.
"We needed to take advantage of mismatches inside. We've been working on in practice demanding the ball and getting post touches. We need to be a post presence and establish ourselves inside."
Hamilton-Carter and the Jackets only made it tougher on KSU in the second half by scoring the first 11 points and holding the Owls without a field goal for the first 8:07 of the half to blow the game wide open.
"That's Georgia Tech," said KSU coach Colby Tilley, whose team plays another ACC powerhouse by traveling to North Carolina on Sunday. "There's layers of Division I, and Georgia Tech is at the top. ... They were bigger. They were stronger. More athletic. It's tough when you play teams like that.
"I thought our kids worked hard. They got frustrated when they got down as much as they did, ... and we only had six players (take the floor). They got tired, but they tried to work through it. We had three players play 40 minutes. You play 40 minutes against Georgia Tech and their pressure, you're going to wear out."
Though only three players reached double figures, Sasha Goodlet (eight points, seven rebounds), Bennett (nine points, four rebounds, three steals) and Dawnn Maye (four points, seven steals, six assists) also had a strong game for Tech, which travels to Puerto Rico to faced ranked opponents Rutgers and Green Bay before returning to the Arena at Gwinnett Center a week from tonight to face Nebraska.
Taylor Mills led KSU with 17 points, 15 of which came on 5-of-14 shooting from 3-point range, while Kristina Wells added 12 points and seven rebounds.

Photos: Avalanche defeats San Jose in shootout
Posted by mleyba on 2011-12-13 20:01:49 tags: Photo
The Avalanche beat the San Jose Sharks 4-3 in a shootout on Tuesday night at the Pepsi Center. The Avs won in the fifth round of the shootout on Gabriel Landeskog's goal. The Avs couldn't hold on to a 3-2 lead in the final minute, because of faulty puck clearing. That led to Patrick Marleau's tying goal, with the Sharks' net empty at the other end. The Avs held a 1-0 lead after the first period, on a sensational goal from rookie Stefan Elliott. Going coast to coast with the puck, Elliott beat Sharks goalie Antti Niemi with a shot from the right circle inside the far post.
