Radford 10, CSU 9
Charleston Southern rallied from a six-run deficit to force extra innings, but Radford scored twice in the 12th inning to hand the Buccaneers a loss Friday night at CSU Ballpark.
Radford moved to 12-9 overall and 3-1 in Big South play. CSU fell to 14-9 and 1-3 in conference play.
Radford scored two runs in the top of the 12th without the benefit of a hit. Radford's Chris Coia reached on an error by Bucs' shortstop Nate Blanchard to lead off the inning, and Blake Sipe was hit by an Austin Weekley (1-2) pitch to give the Highlanders a pair of runners with no outs. The Bucs would issue a walk to load the bases, then another hit batsman and a wild pitch by reliever Joe Pistacchio brought across Radford's final two runs.
CSU scored a run in the bottom of the 12th when Zack Hagaman singled and scored on a base hit from Andrew Widell, but could not get the tying run across again.
CSU rallied with four runs in the ninth to force extra innings. Alex Tomasovich had a two-run single and Sam Remick added an RBI single as the Bucs came all the way back from an early 7-1 deficit. CSU tied the game on a wild pitch by Radford's Tyler Costello after the Bucs loaded the bases on a single by Bobby Ison and an intentional walk to Chase Shelton.
The Radford win spoiled a huge night for Tomasovich. The Bucs' third baseman went 3-for-6 with five RBIs and two runs scored. Hagaman, Blanchard and Remick all had two hits and each scored twice to carry the Buc offense.
CSU spent nine innings catching up after a slow start.
Aaron Scoville led off the Highlanders' big first inning with a double to left center. An infield single from Josh Reavis and an RBI single from Alexander Lee started the scoring. Bucs starter Tory Schroff (2-1) issued three walks in the inning, two with the bases loaded, and Radford capitalized with a two-run single to build the lead to 5-0.
CSU cut into a 6-0 lead on an RBI single from Tomasovich in the third. His line drive off of Radford starter Michael Boyle scored Blanchard, who doubled for the Bucs' first hit.
CSU shaved two more runs off the lead in sixth, again on the bat of Tomasovich. The third baseman belted his first home run of the season to left center to cut the margin to 7-3.
The Bucs added a run in the eighth on an RBI single from Ison to cut the Highlanders' edge to 8-4.
Reliever Tyler Costello (2-0) picked up the win working the 11th for Radford. Nygeal Andrews came on to get the save in the 12th.
The two teams meet again at 6 p.m. Saturday.

Looking for love...
Thanks for taking the time to read my profile. I am a 47 year white hispanic professional male. I was born in Chicago, but have basically been in Miami my whole life. I am looking to meet someone to get to know really well...someone to do things with and see what develops. The eventual goal is a committed life long parternship....yes I am sure that some of you just cringed! ! I am not looking to jump into bed with someone for a night of meaningless sex. ...the older I get, the more I realize I just come away with an empty feeling after that. My hobbies include. ..running. .the gym.. when I get a chance. I love being in nature. .love the water...I'm a Pisces :) but also enjoy the mountains...love love skiing. i love to travel when i get a chance...love theme parks..i'm really a kid at heart. I'm not into the gay lifestyle. You won't find me at parades. ..or bar hopping. I also don't have a huge circle of gay friends. ..I find that you getting a huge group of gay men together eventually results in some sort of drama. Love films, history, astronomy and politics. Being intelligent and being able to talk on a variety of topics is more important than sporting a 6 pack. A good sense of humor is imoortant....I love laughing at the silliest things! Family is very important to me...that's about as much drama I do put up with because they are my family. ..but in the end.. we always forgive each other. I'm a twin...my brother is my best friend! If this sounds interesting. ..let's take the next step and see where it goes. Hoping 2013 is a great year for you!

High school can be some of the best years of life--and some of the toughest. Mark Mitchell's strategy for surviving is to emulate the mighty turtle: pull back inside his protective shell and keep a low profile to avoid trouble. And it works; nobody bothers him. Of course, nobody really knows him, either, even in a town so small it seems like everybody must know everyone else.… (more)

My dad taught me to use a gun and I even had a license to carry one and did for a long time. Then I had children and I didn't want one on the house anymore. Good article, Nobert.

The objective of this subfund is to outperform its benchmark index, the EONIA (Euro Overnight Index Average, which reflects the weighted average rate of overnight interbank placements in euros) and is not correlated with equity and bond market performance.
To achieve its objective, the subfund may invest in derivate financial instruments and implement different arbitrage strategies to manage volatility within a single asset class or between different asset classes. Volatility arbitrage strategies aim to take advantage of price anomalies in different derivatives markets while maintaining a sufficiently large underlying package to spread the risks. The principal strategy consists of taking advantage of the risk premium linked to the volatility of short term derivatives.
The subfund may invest in listed or over-the-counter derivatives. It may buy or sell standard futures and options on equities, on financial indices covering commodities*, on fixed income securities and on currencies. In addition to such derivatives, the manager may also invest directly in the securities that underlie them, except for commodities. The remainder of the subfund's assets will be invested in fixed-rate or variable-rate debt securities (national or international and denominated in various currencies), money market instruments, term deposits, liquidities and other short term debt securities.
To achieve these objectives, up to 5% of the subfund may be invested in the assets of other UCITS or UCI.

1863 Postage Currency Ten Cent1863 10C Postage Currency Ten Cents, Judd-326B, unlisted in Pollock, Possibly R.8, PR65 Red and Brown NGC. This is the Postage Currency design listed as Judd-326 except it appears to be struck in copper rather than the billon composition described by Judd. Plain edge. The entire Postage Currency series is fraught with confusion, misunderstanding, and misattributions. Researcher David Cassel has published two editions of United States Pattern Postage Currency Coins, and much of the previous confusion has been cleared up. The appearance of billon and pure copper is nearly identical. The only way to determine the difference is by SEM-EDX analysis. While no printout accompanies this piece attesting that such an analysis has been done, we must assume it was since NGC was specific about the relatively new B classification, rather than just attributing it as a Judd-326. The surfaces display significant underlying mint red with a light dusting of brown over each side. Two die cracks are seen on the obverse, and the trace of a fingerprint is easily seen on the reverse. This is a rare pattern issue, and one that the astute pattern specialist should note closely.

Fusion hosts U.S. Open Cup game
No time to warm up. No period of adjustment.
The Ventura County Fusion has been thrown right into the fire.
Just four days after dropping its season opener for the first time in franchise history, the Fusion is faced with one of its biggest matches of the season.
Ventura County will host CD Aguiluchos USA in the first round of the U.S. Open Cup on Wednesday night at Ventura College Sportsplex.
"It's moving so fast," Fusion coach Rudy Ybarra said. "But that's what this league calls for."
Because of NCAA rules, the Fusion was only able to hold one training season ahead of Saturday's 3-0 loss at OC Blues U-23s. It trained Monday night ahead of its showdown with the National Premier Soccer League side, which has already played six league matches.
"That's just the way it is and we know it and we move forward," Ybarra said.
The Fusion do have a strong group of returning players on which to lean, including club captain Dylan Riley of Thousand Oaks, winger Kennedy Chongo and attacker Johnny Lopez, who was an All-American for Oxnard College last fall.
This is the fifth straight year the Fusion has qualified for the nation's oldest soccer competition. It advanced to the second round in each of the past three years, including last year's 3-2 thriller with local NPSL foe FC Hasental.
Aguiluchos isn't just a typical NPSL team. When it was founded in 2012, the Oakland-based club was heralded as an El Salvadorian Chivas USA, based on a connection with El Salvadorian power CD Aquila, and announced aspirations to join Major League Soccer by 2020.
"They have some players that have played for the El Salvador national team," Ybarra said. "I know we are in for a game. If we take this team lightly, we're in for trouble."
The winner advances to face USL Pro expansion club Sacramento Republic in next week's second round. The Republic, which announced a sellout of 20,231 at Sacramento City College for its home opener last week, have five former Fusion players on its roster and Fusion Director of Soccer Graham Smith is its technical director.
"We're hoping we get the result and have those guys come back home," Ybarra said.

I and this mystery, here we stand.
First a little palette cleanser from sources more eloquent than I; "I had never spoken to her and yet her name was a summons to all my foolish blood." "Of all forms of caution, caution in love is perhaps the most fatal to true happiness." "It is no crime that you remained a child...It's the rest of us who are pretenders; we pretend to be large and strong. You are just not able to pretend." "To make happiness the goal is to kill it in advance." Now to brass tacks. I am a fan of the following, judge me accordingly; -painted nails (on women) -Levis -the Midwest -the smell of camera film -using someone's name as an adjective -brown shoes -being lost -getting found -the moment the lights dim in a movie theatre -bourbon whiskey -New York City -a bracelet -dogs -Table Rock Beach -overcast days -Alex Webb -eavesdropping -pushing buttons -being barefoot (not in a hippie way) -kindly sarcasm -the big picture -firm handshakes -earnest embraces -nerdiness -Michael Mann -independence -subtlety until exactly the right moment -a sweater that's a little too big -chocolate chip cookies -cussing -Telluride -too many pillows -the ability to argue constructively -secret hand holding -observing someone exist unconsciously -old blank tee shirts -George Carlin -grilled cheese sandwiches

City as Text
Greenville, South Carolina, once a secret gem of a quaint southern city, has in recent years enjoyed ever-growing national and global recognition as an emerging destination for economic growth, international business investment, a thriving cultural arts scene, and an award winning downtown area that has been fostered by an incredibly successful urban revitalization. Sitting at the foothills of the Blue Ridge Mountains, Greenville bridges the old with the new a city that exudes old southern charm while being on the cutting edge of modernity. Whether it is the well-entrenched international flavor of the city thanks to companies like BMW and Michelin, both of which have local national headquarters to the Main Street community in the downtown area with its famous eateries, shops, museums, and parks, Greenville is a city that truly has something for everyone.

Dr. Jennifer H. Ogle is Associate Professor of Civil Engineering at Clemson University where she serves as faculty advisor to the Clemson Engineers for Developing Countries. Dr. Ogle received her Ph.D. in Civil Engineering from Georgia Tech (2005), an M.S. in Civil Engineering from the University of Tennessee (1996), and a B.S. in Civil Engineering from the University of Tennessee (1994). Her areas of Interest include Transportation Safety, Driver Behavior, Instrumented Vehicle Studies, Safety Conscious Planning and Design, and Crash Reconstruction/Causal Analysis. She is a member of a number of professional societies including the American Society of Civil Engineers, Society of Automotive Engineers, and Institute of Transportation Engineers. The Clemson Engineers for Developing Countries (CEDC) has been recognized as one of the nations most outstanding international education initiatives. In 2014, CEDC won the Andrew Heiskell Award in the study abroad category, one of the top awards in the world of international education. CEDC is an innovative student-directed program that began as an applied engineering program, but now also integrates civic engagement and extends across disciplines involving 30 majors across the university. Through their Haiti Initiative, CEDC strives to improve the quality of life and work towards a sustainable future for the village of Cange in Haitis Central Plateau. The system that Clemson students designed and helped build provides clean water for the 10,000 residents of Cange and the surrounding area; and while it is clear they have been a help to the people of Haiti, the people of Haiti have had a real impact on the lives of the students as well.
The students in CEDC stand to gain much more than hands-on experience in their profession: they witness poverty, sickness, and an unwavering sense of community that few ever imagine before taking part in the program. The people they help are deeply thankful, but the students also gain an unforgettable cultural experience. Five years ago, after the earthquake hit Haiti, our conference celebrated the resiliency of the human spirit. Today, our conference celebrates the impact that international education, internships and service learning experiences can have on both the giver and the receiver, transcending borders and boundaries as a transformative experience.

MONTGOMERY COUNTY - Two people are dead after a shooting at an RV park on Lake Conroe late Wednesday night.
Montgomery County Sheriff's Deputies were called out to the Thousand Trails RV Park around 11 o'clock Wednesday night. Someone called 9-1-1 saying that their father-in-law had shot his wife and was going to take his own life. According to officials, when deputies arrived they found Donald Jacobson, 69, and his wife Lucille, 65, dead.
Investigators say that Lucille had multiple gunshots to her upper body. Donald had a gunshot wound to the head. Investigators say the couple was married and retired. They traveled around in their RV to different parks. Sheriff's Deputies say the couple had been staying at that RV park for a few weeks.
Montgomery County Sheriff's Office Major Crimes Unit and Crime Scene Investigators are looking into what led up to the shooting.

Woven wire mesh is made in a similar fashion as that of woven fabrics, as it is woven on looms. Wires are woven together to create wire mesh in different patterns, such as plain weave and twilled weave. The most common materials used to create woven wire mesh include carbon steel, galvanized steel, aluminum and stainless steel. Other materials such as copper and nickel alloys can also be woven into wire mesh.
Heavier woven wires must be pre-crimped. The material remains stable and rigid after the crimping process. Our pre-crimped woven wire mesh is available in intercrimp, lock crimp and flat top woven styles, and it is ideal for architectural applications.

This is a takeoff on traditional pesto. It is made from basil, spinach or Romaine (whichever is cheaper) and scallion tops (a part you might otherwise discard). Made with tofu, it has plenty of protein. It's quick to make and the sauce requires no cooking. Just puree and toss it with the hot pasta. It's particularly good for the budget if you grow your own basil.
- Tribune Media Services
Today's tip
Don't be forced into buying more meat than you need. An example? Pork chops are often packaged in containers that hold five or six chops, but you're a two-person family. Ask the supermarket butcher to wrap up just what you need.
- Karen Haram, San Antonio Express
Green Herb Sauce for Pasta
1 cup chopped fresh basil
1 cup chopped fresh spinach or romaine lettuce
1/3 cup chopped fresh scallion tops
1 tablespoon chopped fresh garlic or 3 tablespoons chopped, poached garlic
3/4 cup soft silken tofu
1/3 cup fresh-grated parmesan or pecorino cheese
2 teaspoons Asian sesame oil
Salt and fresh-ground black pepper, to taste
A few drops lemon juice
About 1/3 cup chicken or
vegetable broth
12 ounces to 1 pound pasta of choice, cooked
Place basil, spinach or romaine, scallion tops, garlic, tofu, cheese, oil, salt, pepper and lemon juice in a food processor fitted with the metal blade or blender, and blend or process until smooth. Add enough broth for desired consistency. Best if used within an hour after pureeing. Toss with hot or cool pasta. Makes 4 servings.

Gallery: TRANSPORTATION TUESDAY: BMW's Lightweight Cloth Car
Early last week, German giants BMW unveiled the GINA Light Visionary Model, a highly anticipated concept set to transform the boundaries of traditional car design. 'GINA', an acronym for "Geometry and Functions In 'N' Adaptations", has a seamless outer skin made entirely from a textile fabric (polyurethane-coated Lycra) pulled taut around a moveable frame of metal and carbon fiber wires. This lightweight design requires far less energy to produce than traditional BMW models and the overall car weight is significantly reduced, making it far more fuel-efficient.

pumpkinescobar June 17, 2008 at 6:31 pm
I agree, Not very impressed at first… A car wrapped in Lycra? Can't be that practical… but I was really amazed when I went to the website and watched the video. Very impressive.
Chas June 17, 2008 at 11:55 am
I really wasn't impressed by this until I went to the website & watched the video's…..then I was amazed.
what a cool concept.
csven June 17, 2008 at 6:06 am
Surprised you didn't link it to interactive architectures or the seemingly never-ending effort to develop modern morphable aircraft surfaces (as opposed to early "wing warping"). There appear to be a number of similarities.

Troll druid
Wanted to make a World of Warcraft fan art piece, so I came up with something that would go along with the upcoming expansion pack, Cataclysm. I chose water color because it happens to be my favorite medium, and I'm trying to master any one single coloring method for my entrance exams. The linework was finished in ink.
I would mostly like critique on the coloring, color choices and water color technique.

The scan looks kind of dark right now. You need to crank up the brightness/contrast to make the paper look white while keeping the linework black and this will allow the colors show as intended.

I upped the brightness and contrast a bit, but I think the problem is with the uploading. On photoshop the colors appear fine, but on the forums they kinda burn out a bit. Especially the darks and the reds.

YIELD: Serves 6 as a side dish
In a 3-quart kettle cover potatoes with cold salted water by 2 inches and simmer until potatoes are tender but resist when pierced with a fork, about 20 minutes. Drain potatoes in a colander. When potatoes are just cool enough to handle, peel and cut into 1/4-inch-thick rounds. While potatoes are still warm, layer one third in a large serving dish or bowl and drizzle with 1 tablespoon vinegar. Season potatoes with salt and pepper. Continue layering in same manner with remaining potatoes and vinegar, seasoning with salt and pepper. Peel, quarter, and core apples. Cut quarters crosswise into 1/8-inch-thick pieces and in a bowl toss with lemon juice. In a small saucepan simmer apple juice until reduced to about 3 tablespoons. In a bowl beat cream until it just holds soft peaks and gently but thoroughly fold in reduced apple juice, mayonnaise, parsley, Calvados, and pepper. Season sauce with salt and gently toss together with potatoes and apples.

"Transformation tops agenda of next DOD CIO"
The Defense Department will issue a new architecture policy in the coming weeks intended to improve information sharing among the services and defense organizations.
DOD Architecture Framework Version 1.0, which replaces a policy dating back to 1997, will provide guidelines for agency and industry program managers on how to write requirements for systems, budget for them, buy them and ensure they work together, Truman Parmele, the department's architecture framework director, said at the E-Gov Enterprise Architecture 2003 conference.
DOD defines architecture as "the fundamental organization of a system embodied in its components, their relationship to each other and to the environment, and the principles guiding its design and evolution."
Unlike the old policy, which looked at a system in terms of the products involved, the new policy focuses on the data being managed and exchanged, Parmele said.
The policy also supports the concept of jointness — harnessing the key capabilities of all services and agencies to field a force more powerful and responsive than each can offer in combat, he said.
DOD leaders hope the common approach to creating architectures will standardize future missions and systems design, improve data sharing among them and increase communications among the services, Parmele said.
They believe accomplishing these goals will lead to new business functions, platforms and systems that emphasize the strength of integrated capabilities rather than disparate products, he said.
DOD and industry need guidance for developing frameworks, said Arnold Rausch, senior management analyst at Eagan, McAllister Associates Inc. DOD has gone too long without a new policy, said Rausch, who worked on the new architecture framework before moving to the Dumfries, Va., professional services firm.
DOD has tried unsuccessfully twice since 1997 to update its existing architecture policy, Parmele said.
The CIO office was selected to lead the effort because it oversees all business systems and because information technology increasingly is used in administration and warfighting systems, he said.
During the past 18 months, the CIO office wrote the draft of Version 1.0, posted it online and responded to more than 550 comments from agencies and industry. The updated policy was due in August, but addressing the responses and the war on terrorism delayed its delivery, Parmele said.

In fact, I think Azarenka will not be so powerfull ever again, like she was in 2012, but will probably win one or two GS in next couple of years. Wozniacki will probably have more success than Radwanska in a years to come, but Kerber will do much more than Errani, who is, in my opinion one and a half season girl. So... Group B.

FOXBORO, MA - JANUARY 10: Tom Brady #12 of the New England Patriots looks on during warm ups against the Baltimore Ravens during the 2010 AFC wild-card playoff game at Gillette Stadium on January 10, 2010 in Foxboro, Massachusetts. (Photo by Jim Rogash/Getty Images)
The NFL is currently investigating Tom Brady's questionable slide which clipped Ravens defender Ed Reed, but that isn't precluding us from engaging in a little healthy speculation about said slide. With that in mind, WEEI insiders Mike Mutnansky and Rob Bradford dropped by the NESN Daily studios to debate it out: Should Brady have apologized to Reed, or was it just a football play? In this edition of Two Sides, Bradford gives Mutnansky the business, and that may have ultimately influenced the voting, as Bradford won squarely with 64 percent of the text-message approval. Check out the whole debate above.

Scott Cleveland accepts a position as a Post-doctoral FellowApril 15, 2014
Dr. Michael Beaty, chair of the department of philosophy, is pleased to announce that Scott Cleveland has accepted a research position as a Post-doctoral Fellow with the Philosophy and Theology of Intellectual Humility project at Saint Louis University to begin in August 2014.
Mr. Cleveland will study intellectual humility with project directors John Greco and Eleonore Stump and other members of the project, which include four dissertation fellows, three other post-doctoral fellows, and two visiting faculty "This is a very exciting opportunity to continue my study of virtue as part of the stellar philosophical community at Saint Louis University," Cleveland said. "I am thrilled to join the project."
Saint Louis University has received a generous grant from the John Templeton Foundation to explore the subject of intellectual humility. The Templeton Foundation will contribute over $2.7 million to the project, with contributions by SLU bringing the total grant to over $3 million.
The Philosophy and Theology of Intellectual Humility project is being led by John Greco and Eleonore Stump.
The project will focus on a variety of philosophical and theological issues relevant to the topic of intellectual humility, as informed by current research in the empirical sciences, including: virtue epistemology; regulative epistemology; peer disagreement; intellectual humility, intellectual autonomy and deference to authority; religious pluralism; divine hiddenness; intellectual humility and theological method; biases, heuristics, dual-process theories and evolution; intersubjectivity and mind reading.
The Saint Louis University effort complements the activities and research occurring under Templeton's Science of Intellectual Humility project by encouraging philosophers and theologians to integrate empirical research on questions surrounding intellectual humility into their own investigations.
Scott will graduate from Baylor University with a Ph.D. in Philosophy in August 2014.
The faculty Scott will be working with: http://humility.slu.edu/fellowships.html
A description of the project can be found here: http://humility.slu.edu/.

* ShippingBedDeath: Dave and Maddie are often considered the TropeCodifier with their hooking up at the end of the third season, to the point where this is sometimes called "Moonlighting Syndrome", with popular opinion being that people stopped watching after Dave and Maddie finally consummated, since there was no longer any reason for people to tune in to see if they would. However, the show didn't really suffer from the leads getting together, it suffered from the leads not being in the same room for about a year afterward. There was no point at which they were together as a couple at all. Willis was busy filming ''Film/DieHard'', and Shepherd was pregnant, which affected their schedules with the series.

The Provider was a short-range assault transport used for airlifting troops and cargo to and from small, unprepared airstrips. The rugged C-123 became an essential part of U.S. Air Force airlift during the Southeast Asia War, where it flew primarily as an in-theater airlifter and a Ranch Hand sprayer.
Designed by the Chase Aircraft Co. just after World War II, the C-123 evolved from earlier large assault glider designs. The prototype XC-123, basically a glider powered by two piston engines, made its initial flight in 1949. A second prototype was built as the unpowered XG-20 glider. Chase began manufacturing the C-123B in 1953, but the contract was transferred to Fairchild, which built about 300 C-123Bs.
Between 1966 and 1969, 184 C-123Bs were converted to C-123Ks with the addition of two J85 jet engines. These jet engines increased the C-123's payload weight by a third, shortened its takeoff distance, improved its climb rate, and gave a much greater margin of safety should one of the piston engines fail.
Providers entered service with the USAF's 309th Troop Carrier Group (Assault) in 1955, and this unit conducted several practice combat landings with U.S. Army troops. Other C-123Bs and C-123Js supplied USAF sites in arctic regions from the late 1950s into the mid-1970s.
The C-123's most important service, however, was during the Southeast Asia War. In January 1962, the first of many Providers were sent to South Vietnam to start the Ranch Hand defoliant program. Shortly after, a squadron of standard C-123Bs arrived to provide mobility to the South Vietnamese Army. By the fall of 1964, there were four USAF C-123B squadrons in Vietnam flying airlift and airdrop missions.
Providers constantly flew troops and supplies to small, dirt airstrips at isolated bases in South Vietnam. Their relatively large cargo hold and excellent short field performance made them essential to holding these widely-scattered bases. The CIA's Air America also operated about 35 C-123s in Laos.
C-123s sometimes flew other types of missions. Standard Providers flew night flare dropping missions to expose enemy attacks. Specially-modified C-123s flew night operations with floodlights, radar, and night-vision equipment.
As the war in Southeast Asia wound down, the U.S. transferred some of its Providers to the South Vietnamese Air Force and the Royal Thai Air Force. The remaining USAF C-123s were transferred to the Air Force Reserve, which flew them into the mid-1980s. Other operators of the Provider included the U.S. Coast Guard, the Philippines, South Korea and Venezuela.
The Museum's Aircraft: Patches
The C-123K on display saw extensive service during the Southeast Asia War as a sprayer, and Ranch Hand personnel developed a strong symbolic attachment to this aircraft. The aircraft took almost 600 hits in combat, and it was named
