LISBON – The town is moving forward with a feasibility study to investigate plans to build a series of hydro-electric power turbines on the St. Lawrence River bottom between Lisbon Beach and Galop Island with the goal of providing low-cost energy to the region.
Id like to see us benefit from the resources we have here, and were not right now, Lisbon Planning Board member Rhonda L. Roethel.
The turbines would be placed along the floor of the St. Lawrence River in the channel between Lisbon Beach and Galop Island, where the current is moving fast enough to turn the structures blades.
That seems to be where the flow is the strongest, Ms. Roethel said.
Ms. Roethel said the turbines would be entirely submerged and would not obscure the natural scenery.
While the type of turbines have not been selected, Ms. Roethel said, Were trying to find something low profile.
The town is also looking for turbines with rubber blades that wouldnt present a danger to the rivers fish population.
Ms. Roethel said she expects the turbines will be roughly five to six feet tall, connected to one another via underwater cables.
The cables will feed into an on-shore power station where the power will be fed into the grid.
The town already has a preliminary permit from the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission giving it permission to move forward with a feasibility study, which will be conducted at no charge by Thew Associates, Canton.
The goal is to make Lisbon a hub of cheap energy, enticing businesses to the region.
We would like to have enough [power] to supply 3,000 homes, Ms. Roethel said of the project.
That goal hinges on whether the river is flowing with enough volume and speed to turn the turbines fast enough to produce electricity.
How fast the water is going will dictate how much power the turbines will put out, Ms. Roethel said, adding that if there isnt enough energy, the project wont go forward.
Last week the town council sent a letter informing the New York Power Authority of the towns intent.
Initially it seems like we have the proper water flow, Town Supervisor James W. Armstrong said.
Establishing hydroelectric power would require investment up front, and the town wont be able to foot the bill for the project on its own.
Ms. Roethel said the town will seek funding from federal and state sources, but is also open to including a private developer in the project.
The only requirement, Ms. Roethel said, is the town wants the power to stay local, to help residents and attract new growth.
If we can offer low-cost power, Ms. Roethel said, it will be an attraction for businesses. Were really in the initial stages and were making a lot of progress.

|Troutman Named to All-Freshman Team
|Written by Mike Flynn
|Monday, 23 May 2011 19:57
The Southern Conference's baseball coaches voted Appalachian State University outfielder Preston Troutman (Rockwell, N.C./East Rowan) to the SoCon's all-freshman team, the league announced on Monday.Troutman hit .274 with five doubles, three triples and 15 RBI in 44 regular-season games and is tied for Appalachian's team lead with five outfield assists. He made 36 starts in left field after earning the spot in the starting lineup early in the campaign.
Earlier this month, the rookie from Rockwell, N.C. was named the SoCon's Hitter of the Week after hitting .571 (4-for-7) with two doubles and six RBI in wins over Western Carolina on May 8-9.
Surprisingly, Troutman was the only Mountaineer to receive recognition from the SoCon's coaches, as there are no ASU representatives on the coaches' first- or second-team all-conference squads. Particularly conspicuous in their absence from the all-conference teams are pitcher Ryan Arrowood (Rutherfordton, N.C./Central), who is 8-2 with a 2.87 ERA and 77 strikeouts and was the league's Pitcher of the Month in April, and outfielder Jack Myers (Charlotte, N.C./Myers Park), who is batting .322 with 19 stolen bases and hit safely in the first 24 conference games of the season.
The SoCon announces its media all-conference teams on Tuesday.
Sixth-seeded Appalachian (31-25, 15-15 SoCon) opens SoCon Tournament play on Wednesday when it faces third-seeded Samford (34-22, 18-12 SoCon). First pitch is set for 1 p.m. at Riley Park in Charleston, S.C.

ADAMS On their way back to their home in Ottawa, Ify Ozonwanji, 19, and her family found themselves stranded at the McDonalds restaurant with other travelers when the blowing and falling snow caused the lack of visibility on Interstate 81 to be too much.
Returning from vacation in New York City, Ms. Ozonwanji, her mother, two sisters and brother stayed at the fast-food restaurant for a few hours until they were told to go over to the village of Adams fire station, where more than 150 other travelers also ended up.
But the family, originally from Nigeria, did not have to stay at the fire hall for long. Out of the kindness of village residents Marvel J. and Nevario Bud Masters, the family stayed at the couples North Park Street home for the night until they could get back on the road.
About 45 travelers in all found homes away from home for the night, said Robert D. Simpson, public information officer for the Adams Fire Department. Fire department officials used social media to find places for them to stay, he said.
Ms. Ozonwanji said her mother, Mary, a diplomat with the Nigerian government, appreciated the hospitality.
They were really, really nice, Ms. Ozonwanji said.
During their stay, the 150 travelers were fed and made to feel welcome while they waited for I-81 to reopen. When state police finally did open it at 2 p.m. Wednesday, the travelers quickly loaded back into their vehicles and went on their way.
Fire halls in Carthage, West Carthage, town of Watertown and Natural Bridge also opened up for stranded travelers.
On Tuesday night, fire department officials had to scramble to make their stay as comfortable as possible. The fire department did not have enough cots for them to sleep on, but the American Red Cross showed up with more. Local restaurants donated food for the stranded motorists, many of whom were Canadian.
They were from different places, Mr. Simpson said, noting that Adams residents have stepped up to the plate to help travelers before.
Mrs. Masters remembered offering her home to stranded motorists during a bad snowstorm back in the late 1990s, so when community activist Connie A. Elliot called for help this time, they naturally said yes.
With room for only three people, she and her husband who retired in June as pastor of the Adams Village Baptist Church did whatever they could to make the family as comfortable as possible before they went on their way. They had a breakfast of eggs and ham, homemade corn bread and apple butter.
They talked to the family, consisting of a 10th-grader and three college students, about how the mother works for the Nigerian government and how they moved to Ottawa three years ago.
It was really interesting, she said.
Ninety-three-year-old Mollie L. Bangs also provided her home to a family of five from Quebec, who were traveling back from a Florida vacation and did not bring any winter clothing with them. Mrs. Bangs, who had people stay with her during the great snowstorm of 1977, offered her four upstairs bedrooms to her visitors.
They were very nice people, she said.
Mrs. Elliot, who helped organized the village efforts, was not surprised that residents opened up their homes. Before the motorists left, she invited them back for the annual cheese festival in July.
I promised them we wouldnt have snow, she said.

Product Details
Lexus SC 2010, Sport Cross Drilled Brake Rear Rotors by Brembo®. Outside Diameter: 307mm (12.09"), Thickness: 12mm (0.47"), 1-Piece Rotor. These are OEM-sized rotors with drilled holes that provide the best venting of heat while also effectively removing brake dust, gasses, and water. High-carbon iron resists heat, warping, and hairline cracks between holes and delivers superior stopping power. Pillared center posts provide faster cool-off.
- Sport series signifies identical sizing to OEM rotors for easy, bolt-on replacement without any need for modifications
- Drilled holes provide better venting of heat, brake dust, gasses, and they effectively remove water off rotor surfaces
- Rotors cool 20% faster due to center vent areas that contain spaced pillars instead of straight slats
- Rotors are crafted from iron with high carbon content which achieves reduced vibration and squealing noise
- Rotors provide a higher grip coefficient and slower wear rate
- Rotors are more resistant to heating up and becoming warped
- Lower operating temperatures greatly reduce fade that results from brake fluid reaching boiling temperature in the lines
- Brake pad life is typically extended by 20% due to these rotors maintaining a smoother, more even surface
- Rotors are zinc plated for corrosion protection on all non-contact areas
- 2-year manufacturer limited warranty
- Ensure increased pad bite and higher friction level
- Drilled holes provide dust and water dissipation
- Improve the appearance of your wheels
- Provide reduced rotor weight
- Vented design offers much faster heat dissipation
Brembo Sport Drilled Rotors are created for use with your original equipment brake calipers, and will bolt on easily without the need for modifications of any sort. Without replacing any other components, you'll enjoy a higher level of braking power that is progressive and easy to use around town. You will also find cross-drilled holes boost braking performance in the rain and at higher speeds when temperatures increase. Plus, their iron content formulated with a high amount of carbon allows these rotors to vibrate and squeal less, making them quieter and more pleasing to use. Their construction gives them a longer lifespan because of a slower wear rate, and because of features that allow them to run at lower temperatures while getting rid of heat faster.
The high-carbon iron resists temperature buildup better initially, and vented centers with a patented design disperse the heat in a superior fashion. Instead of straight fins between both rotor sides, Brembo rotors contain spaced pillars which result in more metal contact. Tests show these pillars allow the rotors to cool from 1,200 degrees Fahrenheit to 212 degrees 20 percent faster - virtually eliminating the likelihood of cracks forming between drilled holes. And during extreme heat-up tests with 100 sustained, hard braking applications, Brembo drilled rotors also developed far fewer cracks between holes than most competitors. The few hairline cracks that did develop were only 8 millimeters in length on Brembo rotors, compared to 32 millimeters typically found on other brands. Further wear tests of those rotors showed the much smaller Brembo cracks led to brake pad wear that was 20 percent longer. Brembo warrants to the original user that these brake discs are free from defects in materials and workmanship for a period of 2 years from the date of purchase.301.64Brand: Brembo Part Number: 33S50103 This part is compatible with 27 vehicle(s)
In its 50 years of existence, Brembo® has secured a prestigious place for itself in the automotive braking system sector. This position can only be held through continuous innovation in products and services, maintaining the highest possible quality levels, offering competitive prices and focusing the utmost attention on safety, individual and public health and respect for the environment. The group's Quality, Safety and Environment policy expresses Brembo's commitment to client satisfaction and ongoing improvement.

I have a dog named Britney; she's a beautiful Golden Retriever who loves to travel. The name was not given because of Britney Spears, I just found in this post about dog names for girl dogs: http://dognamesearch.com/girl-dog-names/
Although she is very quiet, travel with her is not an easy task. Traveling with dogs requires some precautions. Commercial airlines aren't intentionally cruel and sometimes even especially reckless with regards to delivery dogs they simply are not put up to cope with pets effectively.
Unless of course a dog is little enough to carry aboard the plane, airline travel is a dangerous manner for this to go. The fundamental issue is the fact that to an airline, your pet is simply a particularly troublesome piece of luggage.
So that as everybody knows, luggage slip ups are unavoidable, given connecting flights planned overly close together, long delays, and human mistake in a stress stuffed, overloaded system.
Whenever a mistake signifies your baggage goes to Minneapolis while you go to Atlanta, you will survive the trouble. If your pet goes to the incorrect city or is overlooked on a baggage carousel, it might not survive. Guidance dogs travel with their owners, in the airliner's cabin.
Quite simply, lots of things may fail every time a dog goes on a professional flight. Most issues happen on the floor, not throughout a flight. (Situations on the airplane are explained in How Dogs Travel on Airlines, under.) below are a few of the more prevalent issues you must be conscious of before you send a dog.
Never travel by plane if your dog is pregnant or if you suspect that he is. You can put in risk your dog and his future puppyes. Often the symptoms of pregnancy are not so visible, so i found this post about how long do dogs stay pregnant: http://dognamesearch.com/how-long-are-dogs-pregnant-before-they-give-birth/
Even when you prepare cautiously and everything goes as intended, airline travel is horrifying and demanding to get a dog. And you frequently cannot cope with issues as they show up, because you as well as your dog are divided during the crucial times.
Airline is needed to report any event regarding an animal who's hurt, lost, or killed to the Secretary of Transport. Criticisms numbers are printed in the Division of Transport monthly distribution, Airline Travel Consumer Reports, accessible on the Web at not many issues are documented.
While you fly, leave your Pekingese, bulldogs, or pug in the home. For this pug nosed breeds, breathing never simple is simply too challenging at thin air. A few airlines do not accept dogs of those kinds when the heat might be hot.

#BeastMo Now in Full Effect
While his impact might not be felt in the sack total column, the consistent gains that we were seeing from Muhammad Wilkerson at the end of last year are now routine for the player and the Jets defensive line is benefiting from his excellent play. Manish Mehta writes in the Daily News that the Jets coaches are very pleased with the results they are getting with Wilkerson and that he's quickly turning into a star for this team.
Defensive line coach Karl Dunbar and assistant Anthony Weaver have started to bring out those qualities. For Dunbar, who coached arguably the best defensive line in the past decade with the Vikings, Wilkerson's promise and potential are undeniable. Dunbar believes a defensive lineman's greatest career leap occurs between his first and second seasons.
"When you already understand what's going on, the game slows down visually," Dunbar said. "You don't slow down physically, but you understand what's coming… and the good athletes explode. I think that's where Mo is right now. He's in a different place than he was last year. He understands the game and it's easier for him."
Ryan likens Wilkerson's skill set to perennial Pro Bowler Richard Seymour, whose sack totals were never indicative of his true value as a lineman. Although Wilkerson has only two sacks this season, the tape reveals his true impact.
Brian Bassett, TheJetsBlog.com
A few weeks ago on our podcast, Corey suggested we start calling Muhammad Wilkerson BeastMo and it was a notion with which I wholeheartedly agreed. While Rex was perceived as this defensive sackmaster coming into the Jets, part of that came from the players he had in Baltimore. Rex has never had the excellent edge-rusher since coming to New York who can play three downs, but even so he has pointedly not made an emphasis of that statistic. Instead he cares more about three and outs, and even simple QB hurries – especially considering the secondary he has with or without Revis.
It's clear that Wilkerson is a player that the Jets will be able to build around in coming years, but he's going to need a solid Nose Tackle to help him out, as we saw earlier in the season when Sione was playing injured. Down the stretch I hope that Ellis gets to see more time in the middle and can stake a claim to a larger role in the future, and a more dominant one at that.

Afghanistan and Switzerland Relations

Bilateral relations
The Government of Afghanistan first established diplomatic relations with the Government of Switzerland in 1928.The two governments concluded a treaty of friendship and regulated rights of settlement and residence. However, political and economic relations in the following decades remained low-key. By contrast, the foundation of the Bibliotheca Afghanica in Liestal (BL) in 1975 testifies to a strong interest in Afghan culture.
Until 1979, both countries maintained mutually cordial and friendly relations, in 1928 His Majesty King Amanullah Khan, the reformist monarch of Afghanistan had paid an official visit to Switzerland .
H.M. King Amanullah Khan & H.E.M.Schultess, President of the Swiss Confederation
1928 Bern, Switzerland
When Soviet troops marched into Afghanistan in 1979, the Federal Council expressed its concern. By then, Switzerland had also established diplomatic relations with the former Soviet Union. At the same time it supported the work of the International Committee of the Red Cross (ICRC) for war victims. Even when the Taliban came to power, Switzerland did not sever diplomatic relations with the new government. However, Switzerland played a crucial role when International Peace Talks on Afghanistan were organized by the United Nations among the government of Dr. Najibullah, the Mujahideen, the US and the USSR and Pakistan .
In 2000 it also adopted the United Nations sanctions against the Taliban government but continued to finance humanitarian projects to alleviate the distress of the population.
In 2001, the Taliban government fell and Switzerland immediately increased its humanitarian commitment. In 2002 the Swiss Agency for Development and Cooperation opened a coordination office in Kabul . The Federal Council also decided that Swiss troops would participate in the UN mandated International Security Assistance Force (ISAF) for Afghanistan.

|Fed Shutdown; Day 1
|Written by Steve Frank
|Wednesday, 02 October 2013 05:50
On day one of the federal government shutdown, there was tourist traffic on the Blue Ridge Parkway, but as promised, signs at visitor attractions and campgrounds announcing the closing of those facilities. Tourists still pulled into the lot of the Moses Cone house, walked the grounds,
hiked the paths, even peered in the windows, but the signs were clear—the house, Parkway campgrounds, lodges—and bathrooms—were all closed. The impasse over the budget and the Affordable Care Act—which went into effect yesterday in spite of the shutdown—led to the action. Chief Ranger for our area, Steve Stinnett said that they have given campers 48 hours notice, so there may be an occupied campsite or two, but he said that with the leaf season approaching, campgrounds were a sellout for this weekend—but may well not be available. Stinnett said his law enforcement officers will stay on the job, he said—but the action is much less severe than plans put forward Monday, plans that would have closed and locked all the gates along the parkway.

Based on the condition, the rates for used cars vary from region to region. Many car dealers including Peugeot dealers offer cheap rates for buying used cars (Metaxirismena Autokinita in Greek). Before buying a used car, you must be aware of certain factors.
Things to check before purchasing a Used Car:
There are certain things to be kept in mind before purchasing a used car such as:
1. Which car suites your needs?.
2. What is its mileage?.
3. What is the usage of that car (short distance, long distance or both)?
4. How much monthly car loan you have to pay??
5. What is the amount that needs to be paid for car insurance?
Tips for buying a Perfect Used Car:
These are some important points to consider before buying a maintenance-free used car:
a. Make an appointment to check the used car you are planning to buy.
b. : If you want to view a car, make sure the day is clear with best sun-light and it's not snowy.
c. Select day timings to view the car so that you can easily locate any problems.
d. Make sure to accompany a car mechanic with you.
e. Do not forget to take a test drive.
Viewing Categories:
Besides considering all these factors, you should view interior and exterior of the car properly. There are four major viewing categories to have a much better idea of the car:
i. Car Body Work
ii. Car Engine
iii. Car Interior
iv. Car Documentation and Paperwork
Car Body Work
Get to know that cars with new looks, shine and clarity may not essentially have good body condition. Therefore you are advised to check the quality of paint finish used on the car carefully. The application of quality wax can make it so. You can also use a small magnet (face covered with thin coating of felt) to determine passionate employment of fillers. You need not to worry as it doesn't leave scratches on the paint.
Besides this, you should carefully check the body work of that particular car. These things are related to body work:
• Floor board or foot board
• Door Panel
• Car hood
• Car boot
• Windscreen Surround
Car Engine
Mostly people assume that checking engine is not a big deal. However it's not that simple especially when it comes to the mechanical problems. Following are some symptoms that can give you a better idea of its engine:
• Engine noise
• Exhaust emissions
• Engine oil level
• Oil warning light
Car Interior
Check inside of the car properly, specifically:
• Car seats
• Car Accessories
• Car Alarm
Documentation and Paperwork
Documentation & paperwork is said to be the most significant factors while purchasing a used car. This is called a Car Bill of Sale. In order to have an idea of the completion and verification of documents, check them carefully.
Be very much careful while buying a used car. Enjoy great ride in your 'Metaxirismena Autokinita' that is used but perfect.
It is very simple to buy a new car but buying a used car or Metaxirismena Autokinita requires great caution and a sharp eye on detail.

Responding to a tsunami of organized opposition against a highly controversial United Nations disability treaty known as the "UN Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities" (CRPD), on December 4, 38 GOP senators voted against a coalition of 61 Democrats and so-called "RINO" Republicans to kill the agreement by denying a two-thirds majority needed for ratification. The broad alliance of critics that came together to ultimately defeat the UN CRPD scheme had slammed it as everything from a serious threat to national sovereignty and parental rights to an underhanded power grab by global bureaucrats and pro-abortion forces.
Activists promptly celebrated the victory as soon as the news broke, sending out mass e-mails praising the vote as a big win for Americans and for liberty but a serious setback for the scandal-plagued UN. Supporters of the global organization and its latest effort to impose international control over U.S. policy, however, lamented the defeat, pointing out that many of the most oppressive regimes on Earth had already ratified the controversial treaty.
In the United States, ratification of international treaties made in accordance with the U.S. Constitution requires a two-thirds majority vote in the Senate. Critics pointed out that some of the 2006 treaty's provisions would have purported to expand the federal government's powers beyond constitutionally permissible limits. But despite analyst predictions that the UN CRPD vote would be won or lost on a razor thin margin, as well as the fact that eight UN-supporting Republican senators broke ranks, opponents of the scheme held a comfortable margin of victory.
The massive outcry about the treaty from activists and the heavy-weight coalition of non-profit organizations that rallied against the scheme undoubtedly played a key role in blocking ratification, according to analysts. "Thanks to all of you, Americans experience a great victory for freedom today," noted the Home School Legal Defense Association, which helped lead opposition to the treaty among homeschoolers concerned about multiple provisions in the treaty dealing with parental rights. "Freedom for people to act morally and according to their beliefs is of paramount importance to us. But we would not be able to accomplish anything without engaged citizens who are willing to fight for their freedoms."

This Week: Riding a four-game win streak that includes a three-game sweep of Northern Iowa last weekend, the Creighton softball team hosts No. 22 Nebraska in an intrastate rivalry game slated for 6 p.m. CT Wednesday at the CU Sports Complex.
The game is the first of a 2013 home-and-home series with the Huskers. The teams meet again at Nebraska in exactly three weeks.
Creighton (19-9) and Nebraska (25-7) split the season series a year ago. The Bluejays won the last meeting 2-1 in Omaha last April 25 when Amy Baker drove in a pair of runs, in the bottom of the sixth to give CU the win. Nebraska claimed the first meeting of 2012 in Lincoln with a 3-0 victory.
The game marks the first time that Creighton has hosted a ranked team since Nebraska visited Omaha as the No. 12 team in the nation on April 13, 2011. The Huskers came away with a 10-2 win on that day.
Later this week, the Bluejays continue a nine-game home stand against Missouri Valley Conference (MVC) foe Bradley in a battle for first place.
This week Creighton senior Amy Baker is seeking the outright MVC career home run record with her next round tripper. She also is chasing the Valley RBI record, matching it with three runs batted in.
Following the Jays: Live stats links for the game can be found on the softball schedule page of GoCreighton.com. Fans can also keep in touch with Creighton softball on Twitter - @BluejaySoftball and Facebook - www.facebook.com/CreightonSoftball.
Last Time Out: Creighton swept a three-game series from Northern Iowa last weekend at the CU Sports Complex. The Bluejays swept a Friday doubleheader by scores of 4-1 and 11-1, with the second game shortened to five innings. CU clinched the Saturday finale 4-2.
It marked the Bluejays' first MVC sweep since taking all three games of the Evansville series last season on April 21-22. It also marked the first sweep of UNI by any MVC team in almost two years, since April 16-17, 2011, when Drake swept the Panthers.
As a result, Creighton moved into first place in the Valley standings at 5-1, one-half game ahead of second-place Bradley. The Bluejays also started a nine-game home stand at 3-0 and began the year undefeated at home after the sweep.
Sophomore Liz Dike led the Bluejay offense last weekend with five versus Northern Iowa. In the series finale against reigning MVC Pitcher of the Year Jamie Fisher, Dike went 4-for-4 on the day just a home run shy of the cycle. She recorded a triple, double and pair of singles in the 4-2 victory.
Freshman Kelsey Allender hit the first home run at the CU Sports Complex of 2013, and her second career homer, last weekend with a grand slam in game two against Northern Iowa. Allender belted a pitch just over the 190 mark of the left field wall to cap a seven-run first inning against the Panthers.
Junior Becca Changstrom remained undefeated in MVC starts at 4-0 and improved to 13-4 overall this season after registering two complete-game wins against Northern Iowa last weekend. She gave up just three earned runs on nine hits through 14 innings in the circle resulting in a 1.50 ERA. Changstrom notched her seventh double-digit strikeout performance this season in Friday's opener with 11 K's.
Scouting Creighton (19-9): The Bluejays have won four straight games and eight of their last 10 heading into a midweek tilt with No. 22 Nebraska this week.
After a three-game sweep of Northern Iowa at home last weekend, Creighton moved into first place in the Valley standings at 5-1, one-half game ahead of second-place Bradley. The Bluejays also started a nine-game home stand at 3-0 and began the year undefeated at home after the sweep.
Senior Amy Baker currently is tied atop the MVC career home run list at 52 with Illinois State's Abby Olson (2008-2011). With 154 career runs batted in, Baker needs just three RBI this week to tie the Valley career RBI record of 157 held by Heather Stella of Illinois State (1996-99). After posting a hit in the first two games and drawing a walk in the finale against UNI, Baker also extended her reached base streak to 26 consecutive contests.
Over the last five games, three Bluejays are averaging at least one hit per contest. Sophomore Liz Dike collected five hits last weekend against UNI including a 4-for-4 effort in the finale. Junior Ellen Homan hit three doubles against UNI and owns the Jays' longest current hit streak of six games entering the week. Classmate Blair Lowe leads the team with a .455 average in the last five contests with five hits.
Four Creighton players have started all 28 games and are hitting over .290 in 2013 including Baker (.407), Dike (.324), Lowe (.295) and Allender (.292). Creighton ranks sixth in the Valley with a .260 batting average. The Jays' 28 home runs lead the MVC.
In the circle, CU junior pitchers Becca Changstrom and Alexis Cantu rank 1-2 atop the Valley ERA standings. Changstrom leads the MVC with a 1.39 ERA while Cantu boasts a 1.77 ERA. As a staff, the Jays lead the conference with a 2.00 ERA and 190 strikeouts.
Changstrom leads the Valley in ERA (1.39), strikeouts (141), opposing batting average (.180) and wins (13).
Scouting No. 22 Nebraska (25-7): Nebraska moved two spots to No. 22 in the National Fastpitch Coaches Association (NFCA) poll on Tuesday after winning three of four contests last week.
The Cornhuskers took two out of three games last weekend at Illinois in Big Ten Play. Tatum Edwards started each game for NU in the circle. Nebraska won 6-2 in the series opener then fell 5-4 in game two. The Huskers claimed the series finale 7-1 over the Fighting Illini. Earlier in the week NU blanked Omaha 4-0 in Lincoln behind Emily Lockman in the circle.
Nebraska is 8-3 in true road games this season. The other two road losses for the Huskers this season include at then-No. 16 Arizona and at No. 1 Oklahoma.
The Cornhuskers are one of two teams to defeat the top-ranked Sooners this season when NU split a doubleheader against OU on March 2 in Norman. Since that win over the Oklahoma, the Huskers are 13-2.
Five of the Huskers' seven overall losses have come against ranked squads. The exceptions are the loss at Illinois last weekend and a 13-0 loss to North Dakota State in Lincoln on March 20.
At the plate NU is hitting .289 as a team. Four regular Husker starters are hitting .318 or better at the plate in 2013 including Brooke Thomason (.363), Taylor Edwards (.333), Alicia Armstrong (.321) and Dawna Tyson (.318).
Thomason leads the team with 37 hits and eight doubles. Edwards boasts eight homers and 34 RBI to go with a .667 slugging percentage to lead the Huskers.
In the circle, Emily Lockman leads Nebraska with a 1.38 ERA while registering 59 strikeouts and a 9-2 record. Meanwhile, Tatum Edwards carries a 1.69 ERA with a 16-5 mark and 110 K's this year.
Head Coach: The winningest coach in Creighton athletics history, Brent Vigness is in his 20th season at the helm of one of the most successful programs in the Midwest and Missouri Valley Conference (MVC). He carries a 625-437-3 record in 19-plus seasons at Creighton and boasts a 773-508-4 overall record that includes five years at Assumption College prior to beginning at CU.
A three-time MVC Coach of the Year, he has led the Bluejays to six MVC regular-season titles (1998-2000, 2007-09), six Valley tournament titles (1999, 2003-05, 2007, 2010) and seven NCAA regional appearances (1999, 2003-05, 2007-08, 2010). He claimed MVC Coach of the Year honors in 1998 and guided the MVC Coaching Staffs of the Year in 2007 and 2008.
Vigness coached his 1,000th game at Creighton and recorded his 600th win at CU in 2012.
Creighton-Nebraska Series: Nebraska leads the all-time series with Creighton 79-37 after each team won on its home field last season. The Bluejays beat the Huskers 2-1 at home in their last meeting after Nebraska claimed the first game of 2012 by a score of 3-0 in Lincoln.
Creighton has won eight of the last 17 meetings between the schools. The Bluejays have faced the Huskers more than any other team in school history. The teams first met in Omaha on April 26, 1978 with Nebraska winning 12-1 before Creighton edged the Huskers 6-5 in the nightcap of a doubleheader.
The teams have met at least twice each year since 1978 with the exception of the 1986 and 1987 seasons when the schools did not play on the diamond.
The teams' first postseason meeting was at the 1982 Women's College World Series when Nebraska edged Creighton 3-2 in eight innings. Since then Creighton is 2-4 against Nebraska in postseason meetings at the 1988, 2004 and 2007 NCAA Regionals hosted in Lincoln.
Creighton has won 21 of the 51 games of the series played in Omaha.
CU head coach Brent Vigness is 12-48 overall against Nebraska but has led the Jays to a virtual split with the Huskers since 2005 with an 8-9 mark versus NU.
Nebraska Natives: Creighton boasts eight Nebraska natives on its 2013 roster, including Lincoln natives Becca Changstrom and Liz Dike.
Three of CU's eight players with 27 or more starts are from Nebraska, as is ace pitcher Changstrom.
In addition, CU assistant coaches Abby Johnson (Omaha) and Renae Sinkler (Lincoln) are also from the state.
The Cornhuskers have two players from the state on their active roster this year.
Creighton against Current NFCA Top-25 Squads: The Bluejays are 2-1 this season against teams currently ranked in the latest USA Today/NFCA Top 25 poll released April 2. Nebraska is currently ranked No. 22 in the poll.
This week's No. 3 Florida squad defeated Creighton 13-3 on February 8 at the Kajikawa Classic in Tempe, Ariz. Later that same day the Bluejays toppled Oregon State, this week's No. 24 squad, 5-3.
Creighton also owns a 4-3 win in eight innings over this week's No. 20 team, Tulsa, at the UTA Maverick Invitational on March 2.
Bluejays' NCAA Rankings this Week: Creighton ranks No. 35 in the country at 1.00 home runs per game in the latest NCAA weekly statistical rankings released March 31.
The Bluejays stand at No. 34 nationally with an earned run average of 2.00. With 1.39 doubles per game, the team stands at No. 51 in the country. The Jays' slugging percentage of .434 ranks No. 78 in the NCAA.
Individually, senior Amy Baker ranks among the nation's top 20 in two categories. She ranks No. 12 in the country with a .901 slugging percentage this season and stands No. 17 nationally with a 0.39 home runs per game average.
Baker's home run total of 11 is tied for No. 31 in the country this week.
Becca Changstrom's five shutout victories this season ties for No. 17 nationally. The junior's average of 8.9 strikeouts per seven innings stands at No. 25 in the NCAA rankings this week. With a 1.39 ERA, Changstrom rates No. 26 in the country.
Baker Writes Recipe for Record-Setting Success in 2013: Senior Amy Baker's next home run will give the four-year starter the Missouri Valley Conference home run record outright with a total of 53.
Three weeks ago Baker belted career home run No. 52 to spark a come-from-behind victory at Evansville and tie the MVC career home run record held by Abby Olson of Illinois State since 2011.
MVC Career Home Runs
T1. 52 Amy Baker, CU (2010-pres.)
T1. 52 Abby Olson, ILS (2008-2011)
3. 50 Renae Sinkler, CU (2007-10)
4. 47 Amber Smith, ILS (2006-09)
Baker's total of 11 homers this year already equals the tenth-best mark in program history for a single season.
Her career RBI total is now just three shy of the all-time MVC record of 157 held by Illinois State's Heather Stella that has stood for over 13 seasons.
MVC Career RBI
1. 157 Heather Stella, ILS (1996-99)
2. 154 Amy Baker, CU (2010-pres.)
3. 150 Amber Smith, ILS (2006-09)
4. 146 Renae Sinkler, CU (2007-10)
5. 145 Jessica Huff, UE (1998-01)
6. 144 Abby Johnson, CU (2002-05)
In 2013, Baker has already set Creighton career marks in home runs (52) and runs batted in (154).
Baker Climbs to the Top of CU Career Record Books: Earlier this month senior Amy Baker claimed the top spot in the all-time Creighton record books for home runs and runs batted in.
The senior's career total of 52 homers surpassed the previous top mark of 50 set by current assistant coach Renae Sinkler in 2010. Baker has also tied the Missouri Valley Conference mark.
With 154 career runs batted in, Baker recently moved past both of her assistant coaches in the rankings Abby Johnson (144) and Sinkler (146) to claim the top spot.
Baker is also among the Creighton career top 10 for batting average, total bases and walks. The Omaha native's .407 batting average this season would currently rank seventh all-time for a single-season mark in program history.
Baker leads the Valley in batting average, home runs (11), total bases (73) and slugging percentage (.901).
Give the Bluejays a Lead and You May Not Get it Back: Creighton is undefeated this season when leading after the first (7-0), third (9-0), fourth (12-0), fifth (10-0) and sixth (11-0) innings.
The Bluejays are also 9-1 when up after two innings.
Creighton's Magic Numbers:
· Creighton is undefeated at 15-0 this season when allowing opponents fewer than three runs.
· The Bluejays are also 15-0 when scoring four or more runs on offense in 2013.
· CU is 16-1 when scoring first this season
· Creighton is 17-1 when posting more hits than its foes this year.
Walk It Off in Grand Style: Amy Baker's walk-off grand slam in the bottom of the eighth inning against Youngstown State on March 12 secured a 6-2 win and marked the 16th time a CU player hit a walk-off blast since 2001.
The slam also marked the third straight season with a walk-off home run. In 2012
Alexis Cantu's three-run walk-off home run in the bottom of the eighth inning vs. Missouri State on May 6 beat the Bears, 5-4.
Cantu's first career walk-off homer was the first by any Bluejay since Sammy Snygg posted one against Bradley on April 2, 2011.
Stacey Rybar is the last Bluejay with two walk-off homers in the same season (2002), and also the last Bluejay with a walk-off homer in the MVC Tournament (May 10, 2002 vs. UNI).
Here's a list of Creighton's walk-off home runs since 1999:
Inn. Player vs. Opponent Date
8 Amy Baker vs. Youngstown State 3/12/13
8 Alexis Cantu vs. Missouri State 5/6/12

#CU hit as home team in away game
Homer Cooking: After not hitting a home run in the first two games of 2013, Creighton jacked at least one ball over the fence 10 consecutive contests before the streak was halted at UT Arlington for three games.
Since the UTA tournament in early March, Creighton has drilled a home run in 10 of its last 14 contests. The latest homer was freshman Kelsey Allender's first career grand slam versus UNI on March 29. The slam was the Jays' second of the year following Amy Baker's walk-off grand slam against Youngstown State on March 12.
As a result, CU leads the Valley with 28 homers this season. The Bluejays rank No. 35 nationally with 1.08 home runs per game in the latest NCAA statistical rankings released March 31.
Six Bluejays have hit multiple home runs this season led by Amy Baker's league-leading total of 11. Joining Baker with more than one homer in 2013 is sophomore Bri Lingl (6), freshman Blake Ringle (4), sophomore Liz Dike (2), junior Alexis Cantu (2) and Allender (2).
Allender hit her first career home run of an inside-the-park variety against Grambling State Feb. 24. Allender's inside-the-park home run is the first since Dike scored two of them last season, the last against Wichita State on April 7, 2012.
Senior Sammy Snygg also rifled a shot over the wall versus then-No. 14 Florida in Creighton's opening weekend.
Marching into Spring: Creighton finished the month of March with a 14-5 record this year. The Jays closed out the month on a four-game win streak and opened its home season with a three-game sweep of Northern Iowa to take over first place in the Valley.
Last season the Bluejays were finished 9-10 in the third month of 2012.
Changstrom Claims Two MVC Honors in One Week: Creighton softball junior Becca Changstrom earned MVC Scholar-Athlete of the Week honors for the second time this season on March 20, following MVC Pitcher of the Week honors awarded two days earlier, after recording a 4-1 record and 47 strikeouts in five appearances last week.
The award marks Changstrom's second career MVC Scholar-Athlete of the Week honor. She also she claimed the honor March 6 after a solid weekend at the UT Arlington Maverick Invitational. Creighton players won just one scholar-athlete award in 2012.
On March 18, Changstrom earned recognition from the Valley as the MVC Pitcher of the Week for the third time in a month.
The junior right-hander notched an astonishing 47 strikeouts in five appearances over 30.2 innings of work to register a 4-1 record for Creighton during the week.
In four starts Changstrom hurled four complete games, including a pair of shutouts, leading to a 0.68 ERA. She also came on in relief against Youngstown State to secure an extra-inning win allowing no hits and one walk over two-plus innings while striking out three.
The Lincoln, Neb., native matched her career high of 13 K's on March 15 in a conference-opening win at Evansville. She struck out 10 more Purple Aces in the series finale a day later.
This season Changstrom has notched 10 K's or more on six different occasions including each of her last three outings. The rest of the league's pitchers own just four games total with 10 or more strikeouts. No other MVC pitcher can claim more than one such effort in 2013.
For the week, Changstrom allowed only three earned runs and gave up seven walks while holding opposing batters to a .148 average at the plate. She leads the Valley in ERA (1.37), strikeouts (125), opposing batting average (.180) and wins (11).
A chemistry major, Changstrom currently carries a 3.846 GPA.
Baker Caps Off Record-Setting Week with MVC Player of the Week Honors: Creighton senior Amy Baker collected MVC Player of the Week honors on March 18 after a record-setting week.
Baker's award is her first of the season and seventh of her career after capturing a pair of weekly honors in each of the past three seasons.
The Omaha native capped off a record-setting week by blasting career home run No. 52 to spark a come-from-behind victory at Evansville Saturday and tie the MVC career home run record.
Earlier in the week Baker set Creighton career marks in home runs (52) and runs batted in (151). One of those home runs was a walk-off grand slam against Youngstown State on March 12 to secure a 6-2 Bluejay victory in extra innings.
Her career RBI total is currently six shy of the all-time MVC record of 157 that has stood for over 13 seasons. Baker helped CU win its MVC opening series and post a 5-2 record during the week while starting each contest.
Baker hit .429 in those games with eight extra-base hits including five home runs, 10 RBI and an amazing slugging percentage of 1.286. The senior leads the Valley in home runs (11), RBI (26), total bases (71) and slugging percentage (.959). She ranks second in the league in batting average (.419), hits (31) and on-base percentage (.494).
Evansville Series Recap: Creighton senior Amy Baker capped off a record-setting week by blasting career home run No. 52 to spark a come-from-behind victory at Evansville Saturday and tie the MVC career home run record.
CU junior Becca Changstrom matched her career high of 13 K's on Friday night in a conference-opening win at Evansville. She struck out 10 Purple Aces in the series finale a day later.
The Bluejays opened the MVC season at 2-1 on the road for the third consecutive season. Creighton also went 2-1 at Evansville to begin the 2011 conference slate before the Jays earned a 2-1 split at Bradley last season.
Rebel Spring Games Recap: The Bluejays went 6-2 at the 2013 Rebel Spring Games March 9-13. The wins increased Creighton's all-time record at the tourney to 49-9 (.845) in six appearances at the Florida tourney all under current head coach Brent Vigness.
The Bluejays shut out five opponents (Saint Francis (PA), North Dakota, Butler, Fairleigh Dickinson and Army) over the four-day span. The exception was a 6-2 victory over Youngstown State in eight innings after a walk-off grand slam from senior Amy Baker.
One CU loss was a no-hit 5-0 defeat at the hands of Eastern Illinois on March 10. Three days later Creighton dropped a 3-1 decision to Robert Morris.
UTA Maverick Invitational Recap: The Bluejays went 3-2 at the UTA Maverick Invitational in Arlington, Texas, to improve to 8-6 this season. After a pair of wins over host UTA and Lamar on March 1, CU upset then No. 21 Tulsa 4-3 in extra innings on March 2 for its first win over a ranked team since February 2010.
The Bluejays' bats struggled in the final two games of the tourney resulting in losses to Lamar and the host Mavericks. The losses snapped a five-game win streak for the Jays.
Fantastic February Finishes: Creighton finished the month of February with a 5-4 record. It marks the seventh straight season that head coach Brent Vigness has directed the Bluejays to a winning record in the first month of the season.
The Bluejays are 46-24 in February spanning those seven seasons to the beginning of 2007. CU's 5-4 mark this season is the same record the Jays had in 2010 – the year of the program's last NCAA Tournament appearance.
Central Arkansas Tournament Recap: The Bluejays went 3-1 at the Central Arkansas Tournament in Conway, Ark., to improve to 5-4 this season. CU's only loss was to host UCA in its first true road game this season. Creighton outscored opponents 35-16 last weekend. The Bluejays hit .353 as a team over the four games while holding opponents to a .271 average.
The Bluejays are 8-1 all-time at tournaments hosted by Central Arkansas. Creighton went undefeated in five games at the UCA Spring Clash to open the 2007 campaign. The Jays are now 2-1 all-time against UCA with two wins in the 2007 tourney.
Kajikawa Classic Recap: Creighton opened 2013 at the Kajikawa Classic Feb. 7-9 with wins over New Mexico and Oregon State, leading to a 2-3 record. The Bluejays are 5-6 all-time at the Kajikawa Classic following a 3-3 ledger at Tempe in 2010.
Déjà Vu vs. OSU: Creighton's win over Oregon State on Feb. 8, marked the Jays' second-straight victory over the Beavers by the same score (5-3) in the same tournament (Kajikawa Classic) at the same location (Tempe, Ariz.), three years apart. CU is now 2-2 against the Pac-12 foe and head coach Brent Vigness is 2-1 versus OSU.
Telecky on Top against Oregon State: Brittany Telecky won her first start of the season in a 5-3 victory over Oregon State. The junior pitched 6 innings against OSU allowing just three runs on eight hits. She also came in as a relief pitcher against San Diego State for two innings, allowing no hits or runs and just one walk.
Season-Opening Salvo: The Bluejays' season-opening win over New Mexico was Creighton's third-straight victory to begin a season following opening-day wins in 2011 and 2012.
CU's first-game win streak matches the longest in program history when the Jays previously won three consecutive openers from 2006-08 and 1998-2000. All three streaks were under the direction of current head coach Brent Vigness.
Creighton is 19-18 overall in season-opening contests including an 11-9 record under head coach Brent Vigness.
Preseason Predictions: The Creighton softball team placed four players on the 2013 preseason all-conference team as the league's coaches picked the Bluejays to finish fourth in the Missouri Valley Conference (MVC), the league office announced Jan. 23.
The fourth-place prediction is the highest preseason ranking for the Bluejays since 2010 when they were picked to win the Valley. Creighton has finished lower than fourth in the MVC regular season standings just three times in the past 16 seasons.
Senior catcher Amy Baker earned the second All-MVC preseason selection of her career to go with a nod from 2011 during her sophomore campaign. Additionally, three juniors claimed their first preseason honors in designated player and pitcher Alexis Cantu, pitcher Becca Changstrom and outfielder Ellen Homan. All four of the CU honorees earned All-MVC accolades after last season.
The four CU player selections match Southern Illinois for the most on the 2013 preseason squad. Additionally, the four players on the preseason all-conference team are the most for any Creighton squad dating back to 2004 when three Jays earned All-MVC preseason honors and current assistant Abby Johnson collected honorable mention recognition.
Recapping 2012: The Bluejays return 11 players from last season's team that compiled a 28-25-1 overall record and finished fifth in the MVC at 15-11. Creighton finished last season with a school-record 294 runs. CU led the MVC with a .292 batting average, 56 homers, 275 RBI and a .464 slugging percentage. The Jays ranked in the NCAA top-30 in scoring (No. 20), home runs per game (No. 22) and slugging percentage (No. 27) in 2012.

Tony Gishkowsky of Oshkosh speared this 116-pounder during the opening day of sturgeon-spearing season on Lake Winnebago. / Aileen Andrews / The Reporter Media
Sturgeon spearers are reporting murky water conditions on some parts of Lake Winnebago.
The sturgeon spearing season opened this morning and, so far, some spearers are having difficulties.
The Reporter heard that water clarity wasn't the greatest in places. In some instances, spectators stood waiting for long periods of time just for a spearer to arrive with a fish.
According to the DNR's Winnebago System hotline, the water is dirtier than it has been in recent years, with clarity varying from six to nine feet.
Check back with The Reporter homepage today for the latest news on how the season is progressing so far.
More complete coverage will be in Sunday's paper and online.

Traditionally outcast by state radio and television, independent music acts in Beijing continue to pack out the city's many 'livehouse' venues where ear-splitting bands and hard-rocking fans represent a flourishing underground live music scene irrespective of the night of the week. However, major record deals are elusive and while available sales data is thin, bands get by on what they make from concerts and fairly low-level CD sales in a market notorious for piracy.

Seether Bassist Dale Stewart Offers Update on New Album Sessions
Seether are hitting the home stretch in recording their next album. The band, who ended 2013 by releasing a career-spanning hits collection, have been hard at work on a new record while their compilation keeps them in the minds of fans.
Bassist Dale Stewart has checked in with a video update (seen above) on their new album. He reveals, "[We've] been here for about a week now. We've done most of the drum tracks. I think we have one more song left to do for drums. I've done bass on eight of the songs. I did seven in one day, which is a lot, but it's kind of cool to knock 'em out when you're in the groove or in the zone."
Speaking about the process, he adds, "It's been pretty painless so far, aside from a couple of hospital visits here and there and whatnot. But I think the songs are sounding good. I think it's going to be a good album and I'm pretty excited to hear how it's going to turn out."
While Stewart revealed how far along he and drummer John Humphrey are in the recording process, he did not mention anything about frontman / guitarist Shaun Morgan and how much he's done with guitars and vocals for the new disc. He did however state that everything should be done "in another couple of weeks."
Seether will be hitting the road with dates this spring. Check out their dates by clicking the button below.

The jury found Timothy Davis Sr., a former Orlando police officer, not guilty on Thursday of shooting and killing his 21-year-old son in Apopka after five hours of deliberations.
Timothy Davis Sr. was acquitted of second-degree murder in the shooting death of 21-year-old Timothy Davis Jr. during an argument over custody of Davis Jr.'s son on October 1, 2011.
{PICS: Courtroom reaction to the verdict]
About an hour after deliberating, the jury on Thursday requested to watch video of the shooting that was shown during the trial. After viewing the video, the jury resumed deliberations.
The jury later asked for definitions of "gross" and "flagrant," which are two words in the jury instructions with one of the lesser charges. Jurors also asked to listen to a taped police interview.
Earlier in the day during the state's closing arguments, prosecutors emphasized Davis Sr.'s statement to police on the night of the shooting, in which he said, "I didn't mean to kill him, I wasn't trying to kill him. I just lost it."
Prosecutors say the statement proves Davis Sr. shot his son out of anger, not out of fear.
