Rheumatoid Arthritis (RA)
Rheumatoid Arthritis (RA) Definition and Facts
Rheumatoid arthritis is a chronic joint disease that damages the joints of the body. It is also a systemic disease that potentially affects internal organs of the body and leads to disability. The joint damage is caused by inflammation of the joint lining tissue. Inflammation is normally a response by the body's immune system to "assaults" such as infections, wounds, and foreign objects. In rheumatoid arthritis, the inflammation is misdirected to attack the joints. Rheumatoid arthritis is often referred to as RA.
Rheumatoid arthritis can be confused with other forms of arthritis, such as osteoarthritis or arthritis associated with infections. Rheumatoid arthritis is an autoimmune disease. This means that the body's immune system mistakenly attacks the tissues it is supposed to protect.
Rheumatoid arthritis most often affects the smaller joints, such as those of the hands and/or feet, wrists, elbows, knees, and/or ankles, but any joint can be affected. The symptoms often lead to significant discomfort and disability.
Although rheumatoid arthritis most often affects the joints, it is a disease of the entire body. It can affect many organs and body systems besides the joints. Therefore, rheumatoid arthritis is referred to as a systemic disease.

Detailed Description:
Celiac disease is a disorder of the small intestines triggered by dietary gluten, a protein in wheat-containing foods. Living with is far from easy and associated with restrictions and various dilemmas in daily life, leading to depressed mood and reduced well-being, particularly in women. We decided to include 100 celiac disease women on a gluten-free diet into a randomized controlled education trial in order to compare problem-based learning with usual care. Outcome measures will be two frequently employed questionnaires: PGWB (Psychological Well-being Index) to monitor Well-being and GSRS (Gastrointestinal Symptom Rating Scale) to measure the rate bowel symptoms as assessed at 6 months after the intervention.

Oh, and it would like a bit silly dancing a set sequence to a Waltz in 6/8 time that was was muscially complex becuase. .. . . . . get this, your dancing would bear not relationship to what happening in the music. .. . . . .get it?
Because it is a completely different time signature than what that modern waltz sequence is danced to... Get it?
Maybe you didn't know this, but modern waltz is danced to a 3/4 time signature, meaning that firstly from what you are suggesting you would like me to dance polyrhythms for an entire dance? Do you even know what polyrhythms are?

Not to mention that Modern Waltz steps are designed for slower music than Viennese.

I was suggesting that if you had a Swing or Argentine Tango attitude that would be exactly what you would want to do, it fact, trying to figure out how to make your movements fit the the polyrhythms is the reason why you would be dancing.
The reason for posting that music was to show that its impossible to dance to using any set formula, or sequence (the above piece is much the same). If you were to attempt to dance to it you would have to 'make it up as you go along'
This 'making it up as you go along' is the REASON, the motivation, for non-ballroom dancing. The more musically complex a piece of music is, the more you want to dance to it.
The idea of figureing out a nice complicated sequence of moves, and then picking a nice pice of music with the right tempo and the right time signature to fit it is completely the opposite to the way they approach dance.
That's not to say that what you do is wrong. It's what you do and its what ballroom dance is, but its completely different from every other partner dance.
Someone (a very experienced ballroom and swing teacher) a few years ago said to me, 'If you want to learn Swing and Ballroom you are going to have to learn to switch brains, you can't do ballroom with swing brain and you can't do swing with a ballroom brain. You'll screw up both, but in different ways'
It's just beginning to come together for me with the ballroom. It was nothing to do with my dance ability, steps, patterns, sequences are comiing together very fast. I have the physical control to do them. What I was doing wrong was trying 'think' about what was doing in relationship to the music. If you think about the muisc while you are dancing you can't do it.
It's the difference between improvised jazz and following sheet music. You can be a good musician/dancer have all the techique and physical control to play the instrument/your body but if you don't completely change your approach to what you are doing you won't be able to do it.
It ballroom you have to follow the sheet music, with absolute precision, or write out your own stuff and follow it. The rest of the dance community is trying to play along with the music the way a Jazz duet might jam together.
Are you gettiing this?
I'm not saying Bach is better than Dave Brubeck, I'm saying that to fully appreciate them you have to understand what they are trying to achieve and how they operate.

Just because she did ballet does not make her a skilled dancer in other styles of dance. If she did ballet what's with the sway back? A huge nono in ballet is it not? She does not look good to me but that does not mean she isn't a good dancer. To some people putting rings around their neck to make it look long or plates in their bottom lip just sends the boys wild in some parts of the world but here it looks insane. At a previous job I had two very hefty ladies work for me and every time a couple of our single Italian men came in they would try and pick them up. I also had a girl that was a model working for me as well and they would look past her and I saying we were way too skinny. Who is right and who is wrong, nobody, it's in the eye of the beholder. Brian appeals to some and not to others but if they (myself included) have gotten something out of his instruction than power to him and them. Job done.
When it comes to music you can't put everyone in the same box. When I see WC and Country dancers here (and the one couple are World Champions) they dance every WC the same, evey Two Step and so forth the same even though each WC (or Two Step etc.) song is very different. I may as well just yell out WC and count the beat, it's all the same. I'm a ballroom dancer but I dance mainly to not strict tempo music in both standard and latin. I have waltzed to country, rap, opera, rock, you name it and each time my waltz represents the song and the singer, not just the beat. Actually it's a pet peeve of mine as well when I see people dance every waltz or cha cha or what have you the same, regardless of the music. What the heck are they feeling? I like to play with the timing according to how the song and the emotion of it makes me feel. Same with the other dances. Give me "Tea for Two" and it's tough to put anything into it. Give me something like "In These Shoes" or "Going To Shenzhen" and I am a wild girl. And a heavy African beat samba brings out my inner animal. They effect different chakkra points if you will. My DP rolls his eyes when I say this.
I do understand and agree with your points about some dancers, but it's them all, not just ballroom. I think competitors may be effected more of having less musicality because it is like compulsary figures in skating that we all get so worried about getting them correct and better than the other person that the music suffers for it. My World Champion friends, same has happened to them. It does not matter what you dance, it's just the nature of the beast and the human condition.
Everyone tries to rush up through the syllabus levles and think once they are at the top they have arrived. What they don't realize is that by doing this it is like skimming through a book, you may get the gist but you will never understand the story.

There are plenty of biographies of Melissa Rutz on the internet - clearly she has spent all her life, from being a child, as dancer.
You can only Waltz to 3/4 time music, which is quite unusual. If you do the Waltz to anything else, you will be off rhythm.

Why do ballroom dances need strict tempo music?
No serious music is 'strict tempo'
In ballroom dance it is absolutely vital that you ignore the music, you can't possibly do it if you are liistening to the music.

Given I'm am a lead figure in running a Ballroom dance club and am doing ballroom classes twice a week, I'm quite happy describing myself as a ballroom dancer. It's most definitely not my natural inclination in dance, but I'm heavily involved in it.
Your problen (and that goes for all the ballroom dancers who don't do improvisational dance) is that you have no desire or interest in understanding why the rest of the dance community see ballroom dance as pretty bizarre.

Alba: clarify something for me? I assume you hang out with an AT (or other) crowd and you have said you live in a non-ballroom city. Is dumping on ballroom dancing one of the occupations your dance community partakes in - sort of a bonding thing?
Also, since you are such a great dancer, teacher and ballroom officionado could you please upload a video of you doing ballroom on Utupbe? Perhaps we could all learn something. Oh, and before you ask I have posted three of me, warts and all...

I am not even an average dancer. . . . . get this, and I have repeated it many times.
I do a huge range of dancing. I do 10 dances - and that does not include the 10 in the ballroom repotiore.
This is not a competition about how good anyone is, its about what we understand dance to be.
I know, because I do it, and you know, that ballroom dance is about getting a good sequence of patterns together, executing them perfectly then finding a piece of rigid, strict tempo music to find the steps.
I know that, you know that - please accept and admit that.
The rest of the dance world is about finding the most complex piece of music you can then showing of how you can interpret that piece of music through movement
There's nothing 'offensive' in this. It is how it is.

Then you sound more and more like person that 'I don't know much about art but I know what I like and Picasso is awful.' What would you say, for example, if I pronouced that Ediinburgh was created as an elitist, obnoxious, self-engrossed city that on the precept that there are real people (aristocrats) and serfs (or servants) and the latter should not be seen or heard by the former? And further, that that is still how it is.
[disclaimer: I don't believe the above but one can make a darn good argument up to the last sentence.]
For the 20 billionth time you are entitled to your opinions - we like diversity and find difference stimulating - but you are not entitled to ram them down every one else's throats. Obviously every one here has heard them and while there are elements of your argument that are interesting, even appealing, it seems that no one has bought in nor is interested in hearing any more.
So give it a rest or find another place to ply your pen....

By C.J. MCMANUSSun Advocate reporter
With an ever-expanding emphasis on public safety and limited recidivism, police officers from every agency in Carbon County participated in last week's Crisis Intervention Training (CIT) Academy at the Carbon Events Center.
The 40-hour training course, aimed specifically at dealing with individuals suffering from mental illness, was a success for the second time in less then 18 months. Eleven additional officers became certified in techniques that not only reduce recidivism but can also save lives.
"I was very encouraged by this group of officers," said Price City Police Capt. Bill Barnes, who is already a certified CIT officer. "Everyone participating 'bought in' from the very onset of the course."
According to Barnes, some officers are initially resistant to the training because it asks that they put themselves in the head space of those they would typically be arresting. However, by taking the time to figure out what is going on with those suffering from mental illness, a more lasting solution to any number of issues is usually achieved, he said.
The program, taught by Ron Bruno, a detective from the Salt Lake City Police and state CIT director, and by SLC Detective Liane Frederick, the state coordinator, increases an officer's awareness of mental health issues and instructs them in effective techniques utilized when encountering the mentally ill. The course also aims to broaden an officer's knowledge of resources available and understanding of legal issues. It also assists them by providing safer intervention techniques and appropriate solutions to many mental health situations.
The program begins when Frederick and Bruno go out and provide training by coming together with a mental health provider, Four Corners Community Behavioral Health in this instance, and a police force which was Price City here at the 144th Academy.
"This is a program that trains the police to deal with someone in a mental health crisis," explained Frederick. "The groups then try to work in conjunction moving toward a more permanent solution to problems which can drug out and deplete resources."
Frederick and Bruno conduct 19 academies throughout the state every year.
Representing Four Corners at the academy were mental health professionals Pat Wilson and Roslyn Warden who both vouched for the merits of the program.
"Because mental health groups like NAMI (National Alliance on Mental Illness) have also endorsed the program, we have found that even the pin that these officers receive after training works as a de-escalation tool," said Wilson. "Those who know of the program, see the pin and calm down because they know they are with someone who understands what they are going through."
One technique used to increase empathy between police officers and the mentally ill is titled "voices." During this training session, the officers were forced to wear headphones that constantly pumped loud and often frightening voices into their head while they tried to deal with a task. After more than an hour of the voices, many of the officers were visibly shaken.
"It's very hard to focus on what is going on," said Price City Police Officer Kelly Maynes. "At one point they tried to have us conduct a call with dispatch while the voices were playing and I found it nearly impossible. It gave me a real understanding."
In addition to classroom and hands on training, the officers also spent an entire day at the state mental hospital, discussing just what some patients had gone through.
The training culminated with role playing exercises where the officers had the opportunity to go through everything from hostage situation with an armed ex-military assailant to the "nearly" routine service of a warrant to someone suffering from post traumatic stress syndrome.
The second academy has proven especially useful as it ensured that every Carbon County Department from East Carbon, Wellington and Price to Helper PD all have at least one officer on the force who is certified to better help those suffering through mental health problems.
"We are very grateful for everyone who made this possible from Karen Dolan at Four Corners and Chief Kevin Drolc of the Price Police," said Barnes. "This program provides the opportunity for real solutions to very difficult situations."

Eunice Johnson
PRICE - Eunice Chidester Johnson, age 84, passed away at her home surrounded by loving family members on Jan. 3, 2013.
Eunice was born Feb. 26, 1928 in Price to Joseph and Mabel Ide Chidester.
On Feb. 1, 1948, she married Don Clinton Johnson and their marriage was later solemnized. Eunice and Don enjoyed their years working in the Manti LDS Temple prior to his passing on Aug. 21, 2010.
Eunice was an intelligent high school graduate who believed in education and, while raising five children, earned a bachelor's degree from Utah State University. After graduating with honors from USU, she taught at Durrant and Castle Heights Elementary. She was a dedicated educator who fondly recalled her experiences in local first and fifth grade classrooms, especially her students, long after retiring from the Carbon School District.
She was a truly creative, artistic person who never failed to capture the attention of all children with her witty stories and sketches. She spent hours with her grandchildren not only practicing the alphabet and multiplication tables, but instilling the value of learning into their bright young minds.
Eunice was a loving wife, mother, grandmother and great-grandmother who will be deeply missed and never forgotten.Eunice is survived by her loving children, grandchildren and great-grandchildren, who filled her life with joy until the end. The survivors who will miss her deeply include Lynnda Johnson; Donni, Jens, Elizabeth, Kathryn and MacKenzie Nielson; Jaimi and Ember Hillman; Larry and Susie Johnson; Tracee Sioux, Ainsley and Zackary Thornton; Klint, Janet, Liberty, Charlotte, Oliver and Ruby Johnson; Courtney, Shiloh, Kinsey, Ella, Court, Bree and Miles Johnson; Kimber and Eric Christensen; Sherrie, Gabe and Christopher Vlamakis; Kelly Johnson-Dunn; BrookLyn, Ted, Shayley, Nicholas and Evan Cartwright; Joseph, Kelly and Teigan Dunn; Esther, Larry and Bradee Marinoni; and Pam, Rick, Lyndsie, Parker, William and Kaytlin Davis.
She mourned the loss of four beloved grandsons, Stephen Vlamakis, Brady Davis, Christopher and Nicholas Dunn. Eunice was also preceded in death by one sister and two brothers.
Funeral service, Tuesday, Jan. 8, 2013, 11 a.m., Price Third LDS Ward Chapel (303 W. 500 S.). Family received friends on Monday evening from 6 - 7 p.m. at Mitchell Funeral Home (233 East Main Street) and at the church Tuesday one hour prior to service. Interment, Cliffview Cemetery, Price. Arrangements entrusted to Mitchell Funeral Home of Price where friends are welcome daily and may share memories of Eunice online at www.mitchellfuneralhome.net.

Hi, I'm Kernel_Killer, and I'm an alco..... whoops, wrong thread.
Yeah, I've been using since the turn of the millennium, and have yet to quit. Around 2003 I turned to the darkside (lightside?), and switched to BSD. Other than that, I come in here maybe once a month or so, and bomb the boards with replies, and disappear into the night once again, not leaving a trace as to when I'll attack again. One of these days though, my efforts will prevail! So yeah, um... ok. Hi Schotty! Ralinx says his Macbook Pro owns your iMac.

Actually I got here looking to see if there is a newer version of GNUParted. Somehow my device is larger than the volume - I'm clever at doing things like that.
Hobbies are fooling around w/ computers in general and linux in particular. Running LEFT: XP, Suse 10.2, FC7. RIGHT: XP, Slack 11, FC6 & Ubuntu 7.04. Too lazy to be an expert and too stubborn to just give up. My motto at another forum was "If it ain't broke it's boring.", but I think that one came back and bit me.
Let's see if I can find something useful here.
Thanks for the welcome!!
Hello, I am pretty much a newbie to Linux (have been learning about it for 1 month now). I started learning it for a college degree, but have always wanted to. Browsing this forum has helped me before in some questions I have had. I hope to learn more and maybe eventually be able to help another.
Hi Everybody!
I found this forum after using one of Peters articles at linuxhomenetworking.com. Great job, Peter! Thank you!
I am making screencasts for Networking, Windows, Linux (the Scalix mail server integration with Active directory is a popular one), Asterisk etc.
I hope that OpenFree forum will help me in making more screencasts for Linux.
I am an old foggie... just opened my SS check. Use to run UNIX ages ago at a national lab, then on to Mac's and then to Windows. Never a techie, more a user. Been a user since Phillco made the largest cmputer in the world (1964). Retired now and want to get into Linux world for intellectual stimulation and because I am not fond of Microsoft and their business tactics. Would like some advice on books and versions of Linux to install. Also info on GUI.
Glad to come aboard

Rockwood nets big one-time gain on ceramics sale; adjusted earnings fall
November 12, 2013 | Vincent Valk
Rockwood has reported third-quarter adjusted net income of $48.2 million, or 63 cts/share, down 31.5% year-on-year (YOY), on sales up 3.2%, to $890.1 million. Actual net income totaled $1.11 billion, however, including $1.06 billion in proceeds from the sale of the advanced ceramics business, which closed during the quarter. Adjusted earnings beat analysts' consensus estimate of 50 cts/share, as reported by Thomson Reuters (New York). Rockwood's adjusted earnings fell primarily because of lower titanium dioxide (TiO2) selling prices. However, in...

There is no resolution yet on a proposed $7 billion Canadian-U.S. oil pipeline, as President Obama has continued to delay his decision on whether to approve it. Before the construction and operation of TransCanada's Keystone XL pipeline expansion can progress, the President, through the U.S. State Department's permitting process, must grant final approval — an approval which has been in political limbo for the past three years.
In a bill passed in July by the U.S. House of Representatives, the North American-Made Energy Security Act obliged the President to decide by November 1 whether to move forward with the 1,700-mile pipeline, which would transport Canadian crude oil from the Athabasca Oil Sands in northeastern Alberta, Canada, to Steele City, Nebraska, and then on to the Gulf Coast.
As The New American reported two weeks ago, political opposition and environmental rhetoric hover around Obama's verdict to approve the Keystone XL pipeline.

Along with getting the latest Intel processors, Dell claims the "world's smallest" title for the 15- and 13-inch models with "virtually borderless" displays.
This high-design Chrome OS system can cost as much as a premium laptop, and takes aim at small businesses and big IT departments.
The refined build quality and slick performance of the Dell Venue 10 7000 make it one of the finest Android tablet-hybrids around.
With its powerful 3D camera and strong image editing features the Dell Venue 8 7000 makes the strongest case yet for tablet photography.
This new Dell XPS 13 is the first great laptop of 2015, but it owes that title more to a smart design revamp than Intel's new processors.
Dell adds new Chromebooks, laptops and tablets to its education line.
Education sector only.
Taking a second look at the new XPS 13, this lower-end version costs less and has better battery life, but isn't as tightly designed.
The Dell Venue 7 is one of the best small tablet bargains. The larger Venue 8 is just as capable, however there are other 8-inch slates that offer more features for the same price.
This 11-inch Windows 8 slate gets Intel's latest mobile CPU.
Pricing not available
For those in need of an inexpensive thin-and-light laptop for home or school (but not necessarily the thinnest or lightest), the Dell Inspiron 14 5000 series is worth putting on your list despite its imperfections.

The best bedside manner of any doctor I have ever gone too! Excellent personality- makes you feel at ease and he is very positive. I only stopped going to him because of his staff's indifference in returning phone calls and general follow up.

I love Dr Patel. He is the solution for all the medical problems. He is very loving,helpful and caring and intelligent. When he is with u in the room he is with you 100%. Only drawback is that he is in Fresno only for two days out of the week. I wish he is in Fresno more often. I wish I can go back to him again. one of the receptionist did not like me or what? the office dismissed me from their office as a patient. I certainly know that its not the doctor, it is one of the office girl. I really miss him as my doctor. If he still taking the patient i recommend to go him. God bless him. I really respect him out of my heart.

Last Thursday The Red Collection was included in Clara Parkes' 2010 in Review: People, Places, and Things that Shaped the Year. To say I was honored, excited, spazzing out…those would be understatements. To be included with the likes of Stephen West, Miriam Felton, Gudrun Johnston and Rosemary Hill was cool. Really, really cool.
And then! Today over at the Petite Purls blog, you can find an interview that I did for the Renaissance Moms series. I have enjoyed following along with the series and learning about all the inspiring women who have been featured. This was the first online interview I've ever done, and it was super fun.
As I look back at my most recent posts, I realize that there is a complete lack of knitting content. So let me leave you today with a mitten. It will be a pattern soon, once I finalize the formatting and send it out to test knitters. The pattern is called Girdwood Mittens, and the sample below was knit using Cascade Ecological Wool and you would not believe how soft this yarn gets when knit in colorwork.
Here's to a fantastic 2011!

Under the Banner of Heaven: A Story of Violent Faithby Jon Krakauer
Synopses & Reviews
Publisher Comments:
Jon Krakauer's literary reputation rests on insightful chronicles of lives conducted at the outer limits. In Under the Banner of Heaven, he shifts his focus from extremes of physical adventure to extremes of religious belief within our own borders. At the core of his book is an appalling double murder committed by two Mormon Fundamentalist brothers, Ron and Dan Lafferty, who insist they received a revelation from God commanding them to kill their blameless victims. Beginning with a meticulously researched account of this "divinely inspired" crime, Krakauer constructs a multilayered, bone-chilling narrative of messianic delusion, savage violence, polygamy, and unyielding faith. Along the way, he uncovers a shadowy offshoot of America's fastest-growing religion, and raises provocative questions about the nature of religious belief.
Krakauer takes readers inside isolated communities in the American West, Canada, and Mexico, where some forty-thousand Mormon Fundamentalists believe the mainstream Mormon Church went unforgivably astray when it renounced polygamy. Defying both civil authorities and the Mormon establishment in Salt Lake City, the leaders of these outlaw sects are zealots who answer only to God. Marrying prodigiously and with virtual impunity (the leader of the largest fundamentalist church took seventy-five "plural wives," several of whom were wed to him when they were fourteen or fifteen and he was in his eighties), fundamentalist prophets exercise absolute control over the lives of their followers, and preach that any day now the world will be swept clean in a hurricane of fire, sparing only their most obedient adherents.
Weaving the story of the Lafferty brothers and their fanatical brethren with a clear-eyed look at Mormonism's violent past, Krakauer examines the underbelly of the most successful homegrown faith in the United States, and finds a distinctly American brand of religious extremism. The result is vintage Krakauer, an utterly compelling work of nonfiction that illuminates an otherwise confounding realm of human behavior.
"Riveting....Intriguing....Breezy, smooth and vigorously written, this ambitious book is entertaining and informative....Krakauer reconstructs the Lafferty brothers' descent into fatal fanaticism magnificently, interweaving their story throughout the book and giving this wide-ranging work narrative coherence and emotional resonance....[He is] a superb storyteller." The News & Observer
"Well-researched and evenhanded....Thought-provoking." USA Today
"[T]old with raw narrative force and tight focus....Krakauer lays the portent on beautifully, building his tales carefully from the ground up until they irresistibly, spookily combust." Kirkus Reviews
"In collecting evidence, Mr. Krakauer ventures out to a lunatic fringe of polygamous self-appointed prophets....[T]his book provides more voyeuristic astonishment than curiosity or understanding." Janet Maslin, The New York Times
"Terrifying....Startling....Mov[es] deftly between past and present [and] provides a fascinating glimpse of the church today." The Atlanta Journal-Constitution
"Marvelous....A departure from Into Thin Air and Into the Wild...but every bit as engrossing." Entertainment Weekly
"A fascinating page-turner....Engrossing....Krakauer's knack for crackling narrative and taut focus...drives this thought-provoking story." The Columbus Dispatch
"A powerful look at how religious belief can cross the line into fanaticism." San Jose Mercury News
"A hair-raising true-crimer." Chicago Sun-Times
Jon Krakauer's literary reputation rests on insightful chronicles of lives conducted at the outer limits. He now shifts his focus from extremes of physical adventure to extremes of religious belief within our own borders, taking readers inside isolated American communities where some 40,000 Mormon Fundamentalists still practice polygamy. Defying both civil authorities and the Mormon establishment in Salt Lake City, the renegade leaders of these Taliban-like theocracies are zealots who answer only to God.
At the core of Krakauer's book are brothers Ron and Dan Lafferty, who insist they received a commandment from God to kill a blameless woman and her baby girl. Beginning with a meticulously researched account of this appalling double murder, Krakauer constructs a multi-layered, bone-chilling narrative of messianic delusion, polygamy, savage violence, and unyielding faith. Along the way he uncovers a shadowy offshoot of Americas fastest growing religion, and raises provocative questions about the nature of religious belief.

Lipscomb (3-4)
Georgetown (4-2)
11/30/2013 | Verizon Center, WASHINGTON | Attendance: 8165
Saturday, November 30, 2013
WASHINGTON – A slow start to the second half proved costly for the Lipscomb men's basketball team in a 70-49 nonconference loss to homestanding Georetown on Saturday at the Verizon Center in the nation's capital.
"Today was a tough matchup for us," said Lipscomb head coach Casey Alexander. "We are undersized and outmanned in every game we play physically. Today's game was exponential in that regard.
"For us to stay in a game like today's game, we have to make shots. When we go 5-for-28 (from three), we're not going to be able to do that. Nobody is that plays Georgetown when you shoot 5-for-28."
After combining for 50 points on Monday night against UT-Martin, Lipscomb twin forwards Malcolm and Martin smith continued solid play in the opening half. Malcolm led all scorers at the break with 12 points and added in eight rebounds including three offensive boards while Martin added eight points.
The first half of the contest saw both squads struggle from the field as Lipscomb shot 30.8 percent on 8-of-26 shooting while Georgetown was nearly as bad with a 10-for-31 effort equaling 32.3 percent. The lid was definitely on the basket from deep as the Bisons hit only 1-of-9, while the Hoyas went 2-for-16 beyond the arc.
"We felt like we got the right guys to take the majority of the threes for them in the first half and they didn't go in," said Alexander. "So we were able to keep the game close."
After the Bisons went on a 7-0 run to close the game to a 27-26 deficit at halftime, the Hoyas answered right after the break with a 13-0 run of their own. Lipscomb would pull within single digits on a 3-pointer by Martin Smith with 13:22 to play, but that would be as close as the Bisons would come.
Georgetown won the battle of the boards 48-37 but the Bisons held a narrow 11-8 in the turnover battle as both teams took care of the ball.
Malcolm Smith finished as the game's leading scorer with 19 points and a game-high 10 rebounds. Martin Smith ended the game as the only other Bison in double figures scoring 16.
After 23 days on the road, the Bisons finally return home on Thursday to take on Tennessee Tech at 6 p.m. at Allen Arena. The contest will air on ESPN3 with Steve Selby and Justin Seamon handling the call. The game can also be heard on 94.9 Game 2 with Jonathan Seamon, Jay Walton and Jared Revlett behind the mic.

Watertown police late Friday confirmed more information about the vehicle that crashed into the Black River about 5 p.m. that day.
According to the crash report, Christan A. Cooper, 31, told police she dozed off while driving her 2004 Mercury sport utility vehicle, which hit a curb on the 700 block of Water Street. She then hit the accelerator instead of the brake and lost control of the SUV, which left the road and entered the river.
Ms. Cooper and her three passengers, son Zachary T.S. Cooper, 2, and Lacie A.L. Thomas, 13, and Anthony D. Jackson, 15, all suffered cuts and bruises but were able to escape from the vehicle. All four were taken to Samaritan Medical Center for evaluation, but were later released.
The vehicle was removed from the river by a local towing company.

By TERRY WILLISSports reporter
The little league season in the area ended on Saturday but throughout Carbon County, ball fields were covered with little boys in uniforms playing little league baseball all during the spring and early summer.
It was a sure sign of the season.
But this year there was a wrinkle in the picture. When one looked out at the players on one team that played, a double take might have been in order. Every position on the field was filled by a girl. Not just one here or there, but each and every player on the team was a girl.
The all girls team was a first for Carbon County and maybe even in the state of Utah. Coached by Bart Sorenson, the father of two of the players, the team had a pretty good season.
"We won some and lost some," he said, "But most impressive is that only two of these girls ever played baseball before. Still they were having fun."
Many that played on the team played on a traveling softball team as well. Sorenson felt like playing baseball would help the girls with their softball skills. He approached the league and got permission for the team to play. By word of mouth from his players, he picked up a few more girls and they became the little league team called Mitchell's.
He wasn't sure what to expect as the season began, but the team gelled well together and steadily improved. They were generally well received by the other teams, even those who were been beaten by them.
Sorenson doubts he will coach the team again next season. He is hoping another coach might step up and take over and keep it going.
But in the end, the team had a lot of fun and started and ended the season with smiles on their faces.

Belfast International Airport will make 2013 a year to remember as it celebrates its 50th anniversary.
To mark the occasion, the airport has put together a spectacular schedule of events including, amongst other things, charity fund-raising activities and a photographic exhibition looking back over five decades, with the full programme of activity to be released over the course of the year.
Belfast International Airport Managing Director, John Doran, said 2013 represents a milestone for the facility that started life as a civil airport in October 1963. On that occasion, HRH Queen Elizabeth the Queen Mother officially opened the new terminal on the extensive site at Aldergrove.
Mr Doran said: "Throughout its fifty-year history, Aldergrove, now Belfast International Airport, has played a central role in the economic and social life of Northern Ireland.
"We directly account for over 4,000 jobs and 250 businesses and contribute in the region of £400 million each year to the local economy.
"From quite humble beginnings, we now operate to around eighty domestic and international destinations with over 200 flights a day on average.
"Our growth has been steady and continuous, and 2013 will be no different when we plan to add new services to our Departure Screens. We work continuously with our current airlines and potential new operators to extend our reach and broaden the range of destinations for the benefit and convenience of local consumers and visitors alike.
"More than that, 2013 will be an occasion to celebrate a special birthday. Our events in 2013 will be as community-focused as possible, looking to the future, but also acknowledging our eventful past.
"We've had to deal with every conceivable challenge, from recession, unpredictable and often appalling weather to business interruptions necessitated by volcanic ash, but throughout it all, our staff have been magnificent.
"Likewise airports are a place of immense fascination for children and we've put together a number of events especially for them. They represent the future and their involvement will be a big part of 2013.
"Our celebration year will cover every facet of what we do. It will involve and engage, be fun-filled and exciting and contribute positively to our wider community.
"Belfast International in 2013 is an utterly different place from when we opened for business in 1963, but our role is ever more central to the social and economic aspirations of Northern Ireland. One thing remains constant, and that is our commitment to continue to serve communities right across the country, to facilitate business and social mobility and to enrich the travelling experience of our customers".
Airport Managing Director John Doran is pictured announcing the start of the airport's 50th anniversary celebrations with Team Secretary Esther Turtle, the airport's longest serving member of staff, with 42 years of service and Engineering Supervisor, Norman Lindsay, the shortest serving member of staff, who joined the company in 2011.

The woes continue for San Francisco Giants pitcher Madison Bumgarner.The left-hander from South Caldwell High School suffered his sixth loss of the season Friday afternoon as the Cubs pounded the Giants 11-4 at Wrigley Field. That loss also snapped San Francisco's six-game winning streak.
But Bumgarner, who gave up three runs in the second inning, pitched well, despite the loss. He gave up two earned runs on five hits in six innings of work. He struck out six and walked two before he departed with his team trailing, 3-2. Bumgarner hasn't won a regular-seaon game since Sept. 30, 2010.
But the Cubs broke the game open against the Giants' bullpen. They scored five times in the seventh and three more times in the eighth. Winning pitcher Ryan Dempster went six innings and struck out 11 men, picking up his second win of the year. He also broke a personal six-game losing streak at Wrigley Field. Shortstop Darwin Barney was 3-5 with three RBI.
