Cazenovia Post 88 to conduct Veteran's Day event
By Al Keilen
The Commander of the Cazenovia American Legion Post 88, Jack Mott, and the Commander of the Veterans of Foreign Wars Post 113, Ron Davies, invite the community to attend a Veteran's Day gathering at Memorial Park on Albany St., in Cazenovia.
This event will take place on Friday, the eleventh day of the eleventh month of the eleventh year of the twenty first century at the eleventh hour (11 a.m. on Friday, Nov. 11).
From 7 to 11 a.m., Bill Tilison, owner of Dave's Diner at Common Grounds, across from Memorial Park, is offering a free cup of coffee to all Veterans.
After the ceremony, all veterans and their families are invited to the Cazenovia American Legion's post home on Chenango Street for a luncheon, compliments of the Auxiliary of the American Legion Post 88.
Memorial Day is set aside in May as a day for remembering and honoring military personnel who died in service to their country. Veterans Day in November gives us an opportunity to thank the living veterans for their military service, and to acknowledge that their contributions to our national security are appreciated.
The words, "Thank you for your service", means to a veterans that his or her service to their country has not been forgotten.
What veterans fear the most is that they will be forgotten, that no one cares. This is especially true with returning active duty veterans who now are burdened with psychological and physical wounds. We owe our deepest recognition to them and their families for their sacrifices. Fly your flag on Veteran's Day.
Al Keilen is publicist for Cazenovia American Legion Post 88.

ALBANY — Unselfish, tough-as-nails, unrelenting ...
That's the way they describe Dougherty High's Shawntal Byrd, who was the walking embodiment of the term tenacious D for the Lady Trojans.
"She was a defensive specialist,'' said Dougherty girls basketball coach Charlene Jackson, who was on hand with Byrd's friends and family Friday at the school when Byrd signed a letter-of-intent to accept a basketball scholarship to Lurleen B. Wallace Community College in Andalusia, Ala.
"There were four or five other schools, but (Wallace) let me know they wanted me,'' said the 5-foot, 7-inch point guard. "They were up front with me, and I liked the campus, the apartments and the area around the school when I had a workout there.''
Byrd averaged six points and six assists a game and always drew the opponents' best player on defense, and that's where she thrived with an in-your-face brand of defense that always gave Dougherty an edge.
"It's a mind thing. My mentality is I want the ball,'' Byrd said. "I love playing defense more than offense. I just have a feel for it.''
She was the ultimate role player.
"She could have had more points but she was doing what we wanted her to do as our point guard, hand out assists and play defense,'' Jackson said.
Byrd will major in physical therapy — and a physical brand of defense.
"It's just what I love to do,'' she said.

J.D. Martinez rounds the bases on his three-run homer Tuesday night in Cleveland. (Jason Miller / Getty Images)
A day after J.D. Martinez might have gotten the biggest hit of their 2014 season, a home run that nearly took out an acre of shrubbery behind Progressive Field�s center-field fence, the Tigers are either dealing with, or delighting in, their usual mounds of issues.
Updating a few of them, we find:
Martinez is the 2014 American League Steal of the Season.
Credit for this heist goes fundamentally to Al Avila, the team�s assistant general manager. Martinez has 19 home runs and a .911 OPS (Miguel Cabrera�s: .869). He has personally beaten the Indians twice with ninth-inning homers. He is batting .311 as he heads into his 100th game of the season. This sample size, hardly small, illustrates not only the degree of thievery the Tigers achieved in signing Martinez in March, it in some small way explains why the Astros are 60-79, why they failed to sign the 2014 draft�s first overall pick, and why this week they fired their manager.
They haven�t had a great year on the field or in the decision-making cubicle.
Martinez is a hitter. As a defender, he can sometimes (last Sunday�s game, for example) look like a hunter chasing a wounded duck in the marsh. But without his bat, a weapon Avila knew about when Martinez was growing up in Avila�s neighborhood in Miami, the Tigers would likely be in grave peril of missing 2014�s postseason.
It should also be noted Martinez turned 27 a couple of weeks ago and can�t become a free agent for three more years. This was good scouting by Avila and the Tigers and an equally deft job in closing a deal that secured an indispensable bat for the giveaway price of $483,000 in 2014 salary.
Alex Avila�s beatings are becoming a community concern.
It was chilling Tuesday night to watch Tigers trainer Kevin Rand, moving an index finger, right-to-left, left-to-right, as he tried to gauge whether Avila had been concussed by yet another bullet of a foul ball to Avila�s mask and head.
Doctors are experts on these matters, not fans, or commentators. But if you have personally witnessed repeated blows to the head in any sport, whether in boxing, or in a football game, you have a natural, intuitive fear for what could be happening to Avila as this ceaseless, inexplicably extreme pounding continues.
No one ever has been able to offer a reason for why Avila takes, by consensus, probably the worst pummeling from foul balls of any catcher in baseball. Is it the Tigers� pitchers, which feature plenty of hard-throwers and a surplus of wicked pitches that can be grazed and thereby carom off a catcher?
No one knows. But at some point, a man who missed time last year due to concussions and who was all but knocked out against Tuesday, will make the proper, long-term call on his life as a catcher � and as a husband and father. Social media proved Tuesday that even those who are frustrated by Avila�s offense were plainly worried about him and his health. The punishment he takes is almost grotesque.
David Price is delivering. Can his team justify July�s trade?
The Tigers had been wallowing through another series last weekend, this time against the callow White Sox. They split four games, playing horrifically in Sunday�s series finale. They were now obliged to play a hot Indians team and to take on an even hotter pitcher in Corey Kluber.
The Tigers on Monday mowed down Kluber and Co., not only because their bats turned ferocious, but because Price toyed with Cleveland�s lineup.
As everyone knows, this was why the Tigers made July�s deal. There was a push to make the playoffs and, once securing the playoffs, to have at the top of their rotation the best possible weaponry with which to win a short series. Price is an advantage on both missions.
Price�s arrival also means one of two choices now confront the Tigers and owner Mike Ilitch. Either they turn Price into a 1-1/2 season rental and watch him leave for free agency next autumn (possible) or they bump up the money they were going to pay Max Scherzer and sign Price to an extension that pays him $175 or more million to remain in Detroit.
This is not going to be easy either way. The Tigers paid a far heavier price in July�s trade than is popularly perceived. Drew Smyly is pitching terrifically for the Rays and the youngster Tampa Bay viewed as its real prize, Willy Adames, will be a dazzler if his development continues along the path scouts envision.
That�s a lot of freight, in addition to Austin Jackson, the Tigers jettisoned for a supposed win-now gambit that all but ignores this team might yet spend October with family and friends.
The other reality has to do with payroll and how it will affect future Tigers teams. Throw together salaries for Miguel Cabrera and Justin Verlander, and a probable extension for Price takes the Tigers� payroll obligations to something in the vicinity of $600 million for three men who all will be in their 30s. That figure, by the way, is twice what it cost to build Comerica Park.
No one knows how this is being viewed by the numbers crunchers at Ilitch Holdings. Is it money that must be assessed against the ongoing appreciation in a franchise Mike Ilitch bought for $82 million and that now is worth probably $1 billion or more? Is it money that will be assumed -- and snorted at -- by a new owner if, after Mike�s life is completed, the team is sold?
Whatever, owing three men, rapidly getting long in the tooth, more than a half-billion bucks is going to be felt on some level in the years ahead. Everyone wants to win now. Fans might also remember, five years in the future, they�ll also want to win � now.
And that�s going to be an interesting effort when so much debt will be tied to a payroll that will have its limits.

FORSYTH COUNTY, N.C. -- A firefighter with the Union Cross Fire Department lost his home Saturday to a fire.
Kyle Scott has worked at the station for about eight years. His home caught fire in the evening while his wife, April, and two children were home.
April was about to take her 2-year-old son and 14-year-old daughter to go see Santa and were going to have family night at home. April says when she went to her room to get ready she heard crackling that sounded like fire.
She saw the blaze when she went back to the family room and immediately got her family out of there. She and her children watched their home burn while they stood outside on their lawn.
The family says smoke caused a majority of the damage.
The fire department is accepting donations to help the family, whose home burned so close to Christmas. Donations can be taken to the fire station at 4401 High Point Rd. in Kernersville.

Modi belongs to the Ghanchi (oil miller and trader) community, listed as an OBC in Gujarat, but relatively well off and integrated with the savarna communities. For instance, most housing colonies with an unwritten code allowing only savarnas to dwell there have no problems admitting Ghanchis. But in its desperation to woo the OBC vote, crucial in Uttar Pradesh and Bihar, the party is projecting him there as an EBC leader. Since EBCs are chosen by states as the worse-off on the OBC list, this is as abject an attempt at hardselling backwardness as there was one. The UP party unit has even been organising district-level EBC conclaves and its spokesman Lautam Ram Nishad has been fuming against the creamy layer OBCs running away with government sops, leaving the EBCs at a loss.
The desperation to play up Modi as an EBC has created some strategic problems. Insiders say the Modi camp fears this might alienate the more numerous OBCs. Some say it might foul the (rumoured) deal between BJP president Rajnath Singh and the Samajwadi Party chief Mulayam Singh Yadav. (Yadavs are OBCs.) Says an OBC leader of the BJP, "Didn't SP withdraw its candidate against Rajnath in Ghaziabad during the last election?" Given the distrust between the Modi camp and the BJP chief, it's being alleged that Rajnath is settling old scores with Modi.
Meanwhile, the 'backward push' continues. Some leaders are demanding a posthumous Bharat Ratna for Kanshi Ram, the late BSP leader, to project a newfound love for Dalits; in Bihar, Rajnath discovered striking similarities between Modi and the late Karpoori Thakur. And in collecting iron for Modi's grand Sardar Patel statue, the BJP is projecting the Sardar as a Kurmi leader, conflating the vague lines between land-owners and tillers that vary from region to region to suit its purpose. And while it hopes Modi's personality cult will make candidates immaterial, the party is struggling to striking the caste balance in choosing candidates. It's also hamstrung by a lack of OBC leaders. There's Kalyan Singh and Uma Bharati, but they are seen as spent forces.
Also unnerving cadres is the delay in finalising candidates, caused by intense infighting. Plans were to have a list by January-end. It was argued that delaying the list for the Delhi assembly polls had led to bad results, and that an early announcement would energise party workers for the campaign. But with February drawing to a close, the list still eludes them. Ideally, the party would like to dump many of the 12 MPs from Bihar and 10 MPs from UP. But it has been advised to hold the decision to stall malcontents and mischief-makers. In the process, it's unable to give a headstart to those it wants to retain.
Many sitting MPs are looking for safer seats. Rajnath, who won from Ghaziabad in 2009, is said to be one. If party insiders are to be believed, his camp had floated the idea that he should fight from Lucknow. But the incumbent MP, Lalji Tandon, is adamant that he would give up the seat only if Modi decides to contest from there. But despite speculation that Modi would be contesting from either Varanasi or Lucknow, such an announcement, if at all, is expected closer to the election.
The party's decision to welcome into its fold former bureaucrats like retired home secretary R.K. Singh and former Mumbai police commissioner Satyapal Singh and field them from key constituencies has also run into heavy weather. Disappointed local aspirants are suspected to be responsible for the hostile reception received by Satyapal Singh at Baghpat. The reception by the local BJP unit at Arrah in Bihar to R.K. Singh was also reported to be cold.
It is in this backdrop that RSS chief Mohan Bhagwat spent five days this month holed up in Varanasi. His terse message to the BJP: Stop being complacent, put the house in order, unite and put an end to the infighting. Right now, the party with a difference does not seem so different from others after all.
Reading Idea for UP: Enter, NaMo the Backward (Mar 3), it seems to me that the fear of Modi has struck right at the heart of Outlook.
Vaibhav Shrivastava, on e-mail
There's no caste divide in north India, and people from all castes have been given equal importance by all parties. It's just the imagination of the writer that a particular party is dominated by a certain caste. The complex realities of politics sometimes eludes the simple categories of the media.
Keshav Kumar Prasad, Pune
As elections approach, we'll be seeing more such desperate articles. You guys can't help writing anti-Modi articles despite knowing that such articles have only intensified the zeal of his supporters and increased their numbers too.
P.B. Joshipura, Suffolk, US
Casteism is the cancer of Indian society and must be eliminated in its entirety. If abusing and humiliating a person because of his caste amounts to casteism, so does giving him an advantage over others in jobs or in college admissions.
Asad-ul Gaba, Baroda
You are always after Narendra Modi, the BJP, the RSS and those connected with Hindutva. There's a limit to baiting. Enough is enough, stop this baiting week after week in your magazine. Write something that is good for the nation and not about this or that particular person.
Parthasarathi S., Mysore
Thank you to all those who have taken the trouble to read the article and share their thoughts. Out of the arguments made here, there are two that perhaps need answering. So here they go.
1. The first part of the article compares outcomes (relative percentages of population of the religions concerned) irrespective of the process that led to those outcomes - whether immigration, relatively faster population growth or conversions. This was for two reasons. One, to put the figure of 2.3 per cent in "numerical perspective", as the article itself explained. The second reason was that outcomes are ultimately what the crux of debate is about. The rest of the article in any case dealt with process - or conversions in this case, from both a contemporary and historical perspective.
2. Some commenters have tried to cast doubts on the reliability of Census 2001. Those who do this should bear in mind that Census 2001 was conducted by a BJP government. Considering the extreme importance that BJP gives to this issue, it would be reasonable to expect that IF it had perceived a problem with the methodology that was distorting the numbers, it would have fixed it. As the article mentioned, BJP or BJP-supported governments have been in power for 10 of the last 40 years, or about a quarter of the time, and the only reasonable conclusion one can arrive at is that any misreporting of numbers, real or perceived, would be marginal and hence, not of importance.
To all other arguments made, my answer is the following: Please read the article again, with particular focus on the quotations of Vivekananda and Monier Williams, and the history of the missionary efforts in Bengal and their outcome.
As the election approaches, you will see more and more such desperation articles. They can't help, eventhough they know with every attack Modi is getting more and more popular. They keep on doubling the bet like a losing gambler.
We have JUNK FOOD and JUNK JOURNALISM, Uttam SenGupta excels in latter. Absoute garbage, nothing sensible and simple failure to detect the massive public anger against UPA misgovernance and their eagerness to vote for the only real alternative to UPA tyranny.
"In its desperation to woo the OBC vote, BJP is projecting Modi in UP and Bihar as an EBC leader". Uttam Sengupta
Just like Rahul/congress is selling itself as a anti- corruption party!
this is utter nonsense, what sengupta will understand , he is neither a bihari nor an UP walla. Comments by the people from other states has no importance, it is just for the academic interest and filling the extra pages of the magazine.There is no cast divide in the northern states, People from all caste have been given equal representation by all the parties, it is just the imagination of the reporters that a particular party is dominated by certain caste.

And now a video to warm your heart, your soul and anything else in your body that could possibly be warmed.
This video (which was first uploaded last year but is making the rounds on the Internet again because, well, how could it not?), shows the adorable surprise a Houston couple found while going for a walk through the woods in Spring Creek Park.
Kittens! Four of them, to be exact. The couple thinks that they were not feral but were abandoned in the woods by some evil monster, and judging by the way the cats immediately run up to the humans and follow them out of the park, we have to agree.
VOTE: Check out E! readers' cutest cats of 2014 and vote for your favorite!
"We can't just leave them here!" the woman says upon finding the furry babies. And they don't.
The kittens get in a nice nap on the car ride home…
…where they got food and water….
…plus a bath….
...and before you know it, they were as good as new!
The guy who uploaded the video to YouTube says that each of the kittens were adopted out to forever homes.
"The kitties have all been claimed and are in excellent homes!" he wrote. "We couldn't be happier!
Neither could we. 'Scuse us while we watch this video four more times.
It's Adopt-a-Cat month! Go to PetFinder.com to find a shelter near you and give a kitten a forever home!

November 28, 2015
LOGAN, Ohio (AP) - A man who fell to his death in an Ohio park has been identified as a student from Illinois who had met up with a high school girlfriend and her family.
Hocking County Coroner Dr. Dave Cummin said Tuesday that 18-year-old Purdue University honors student William Beinlich died Sunday from a head injury.
Hocking Hills State Park Manager Chris Grupenhof tells the Logan Daily News the teen from Gurnee, Ill., wandered off a trail and slipped, tumbling 60 feet into a shallow pool at a waterfall.
Beinlich was pronounced dead at the scene.
The coroner says the park was a mid-point for Beinlich and for the young woman and her family, who had moved from Illinois to Virginia.

Small Tv Cabinets
Though you may observe a lot of Tv you may not want to make this the focal stage of your area. In most homes the television is positioned in the corner out of the way. This is why corner Television cabinets have grow to be very well-known. Corner Tv cabinets make the greatest use of area in tiny rooms and allow you to shop your home enjoyment methods back out of the way.
Positive aspects of Corner
Most modern televisions are at minimum 32″ these days and this is quite an imposing size for a tiny space. You want a pretty large Television stand to exhibit a modern day tv and all of the linked equipment (set leading box, DVD player and so on). This can intrude into small rooms and you may experience that your residence amusement system is dominating your residing room. Corner cabinets in shape back again into tight spaces and can supply a way for you to display your tv without intruding on the rest of the area. Corner Tv cabinets can be created in a extensive variety of various types and supplies including wood, glass and plastic and this indicates you can choose the right appear for your decor.
Negatives of Corner
Corner Tv cabinets do not have as much internal storage area as square or rectangle cabinets and Tv stands. This indicates that you might have problems storing all of your gadgets if you have a large residence entertainment method comprising of video clip game consoles, amplifiers, speakers and much more. If you do have restricted space accessible then you are going to have to feel very carefully about how large your home enjoyment program is. For instance you can save space by opting for new set leading boxes from satellite and cable organizations that merge tv channel access and programme recoding in one particular machine. This would preserve you from having to purchase a separate difficult generate or DVD recorder.
Selecting a Corner Television Cabinet
Corner Tv cabinets can have some problems with ventilation. Electronic gear this kind of as DVD players and video clip game consoles can produce a lot of heat even when they are on standby. These devices can easily overheat in warm climate so it is important to make sure your corner cabinet has correct ventilation. You do also require to check you have accessibility to the back again of the corner cabinet as well so that you can kind out the cables and wiring effortlessly. If the back again panels to your corner do not supply adequate entry or ventilation you could carefully lower some sections away oneself. If the panel is removable it is greatest to get this off and then use a jigsaw to lower out some tiny ventilation and accessibility sections.

|Mental health care based on the psychosocial model: reports of relatives and persons with mental disorders.
MedLine Citation:
|PMID: 23380785 Owner: NLM Status: Publisher
|This study was performed in 2009 in Curitiba, using the thematic oral history technique. The participants were eight individuals from three different families who had one relative suffering from a mental disorder. The objective of the study was to describe the perception of relatives and persons with mental disorders regarding mental healthcare based on the psychosocial model. The data were obtained through semi-structured interviews, which were then analyzed and organized descriptively. The participants opined that extra-hospital services such as the Psychosocial Care Center and mental health outpatient clinics are innovative strategies. They described receiving assistance from a multidisciplinary team, the mediation of family conflicts, and the principle of territoriality. They highlighted that the individual with a mental disorder is followed by the Basic Health Unit and emphasized the importance of mental health network connections. They believe that including the family in the treatment regime improves family relationships and their acceptance of the disease.

Hammer & Tong currently holds #1 position on Urbanspoon and there is certainly much merit to this.
We had the infamous soft-shell crab burger with gluten free bread so that T could also indulge in this. T's willingness to eat soft shell crab is still a precariously new thing but I managed to persuade him to try a bite. Then he took another voluntary bite, and another. Yep, it was good alright! The soft shell crab was suitably crunchy yet sufficiently juicy as a result of the oil that it was fried in and the natural juice from the crab meat. The cabbage slaw added extra freshness and texture which was balanced by a generous lashing of creamy sauce.
We also had the lamb ribs which were full of flavor and finger lickin' good. This contrasted well with the elegant salad that accompanied it which provided a nice reprieve to the smokiness of the meat. One minor change I would suggest is to soften the meat a bit more and / or use a fattier cut.
T tells me that he can sense my mood by the words that I use and the tone that I adopt in my blogposts. I hope that it doesn't require too much deciphering on his part to sense the sheer happiness that I felt after visiting Hammer & Tong.

During "Hawley Loves To Read Week" author Sara Pennypacker stopped by on Tuesday, April 8, to speak to students about writing, her books, and her inspirations.
Ms Pennypacker's published works include her Clementine series, Summer of the Gypsy Moths, Dumbstruck, The Amazing World of Stuart, Sparrow Girl and Pierre in Love.
She also visited Middle Gate Elementary School during that school's "Middle Gate Loves To Read Week," on Monday, April 7.
Ms Pennypacker told Hawley students the following day that she has the best job in the world. She also said when authors write books they are starting a conversation with their readers.
Being an author she said is "wonderful" and she asked the students to think about becoming one. To demonstrate that authors create manuscripts, Ms Pennypacker shared a manuscript for an upcoming book that she said will be called The Dullards.
Authors, said Ms Pennypacker, can go to offices or studios to work, but they can also work where they want to.
"Mostly I work in my head," said Ms Pennypacker.
To explain how she works, Ms Pennypacker shared photos of herself: one on a sofa relaxing with her eyes closed and one swimming in a pool. She shared two copies of each photo and said in one she was working and in the other she was not. The students could not spot a difference. My Pennypacker said both places, underwater and on a couch, are places where she can work, using her imagination.
She also completed a game with the students that she called "Why, why why. How how how." To play the game she asked the students to come up with a story idea by constantly asking how and why.

We created Pandora to put the Music Genome Project directly in your hands
It's a new kind of radio –
stations that play only music you like
Clearly, lead singer/guitarist John Dwyer is someone who thrives on grit; his guitar playing is consistently dirty, and his vocals are consistently distorted -- so distorted, in fact, that it is often difficult to understand the lyrics that are coming out of his mouth. One reviewer put it best when he wrote that Dwyer sounds like he's singing into a beaten up, worn-out pay phone -- which, of course, is exactly how he wants his vocals to sound. Coachwhips aren't the only group on Dwyer's résumé. The threesome's leader (who is originally from Providence, RI) has also played guitar for Bay Area groups that have included Dig That Body Up It's Alive and the duo Pink & Brown (which also included drummer Jeff Rosenberg -- Dwyer was Pink, while Rosenberg was Brown). Coachwhips started recording in 2001, when Dwyer got together with drummer John Harlow and keyboardist/tambourine player Mary Ann McNamara (whose keyboard playing has favored an organ-like sound).
Coachwhips' debut album, Hands on the Controls, was released on Black Apple Records in early 2002; their second album, Get Yer Body Next Ta Mine, was released on CD by New York's independent Narnack label in 2003. Meanwhile, the Show & Tell label has put out a vinyl LP version of Get Yer Body Next Ta Mine. Over the next two years, Coachwhips kept up their frenetic pace, both in their music and their release schedule. Just before recording 2004's Bangers vs F**kers, Harlow and McNamara were replaced by keyboardist Val-Tronic and drummer Mat Hartman, who were on board for 2005's Peanut Butter and Jelly Live at the Ginger Minge, which ended up being the final Coachwhips album. Dwyer continued to work with his folk-noise outfit OCS and started another project, Yikes, after Coachwhips' demise. The 2006 CD/DVD set Double Death gathered most of the band's recorded loose ends and celebrated their frenetic live act. ~ Alex Henderson

CATONSVILLE, Md. - Down five runs after four, UMES scored three runs in the next few innings to get within two but fell short to UMBC 8-5 at the rain-soaked Baseball Factory Field on Wednesday. The Hawks fall to 8-43 while the Retrievers improve to 13-27.
UMES has finished the regular season and will now prepare for the MEAC Tournament next week.
Stephen Bull (Millsboro, Del.) led off the first with a double to left off UMBC starter Kevin Ladner (4-1). Two batters later, Tre-von Johnson also hit a double to score Bull and give UMES a 1-0 lead.
With two outs in the bottom of the first against UMES starter Chris Lopez (Vineland, N.J.), Kevin LaChance doubled and scored the next at bat on an Anthony Gatto single to tie the game.
In the second, UMES struck again to take back the lead. With one out, Joshua James (Milford, Del.) hit a ball over the left fielder's head for a double. After a Connor Breslin (Saylorsburg, Pa.) single put runners on the corners, James scored on a Tim Gray (Dover, Del.) infield single up the middle to push the Hawks up 2-1.
UMBC tied it up in the bottom of the third after back-to-back doubles by Mark Esposito and Rob McCabe.
Next inning, the Retrievers rallied for five runs off Hawks reliever Jordan Bone (Pittston, Pa.) (0-7) with five hits and two errors to take a 7-2 lead.
UMES responded in the following half-inning. After Gray took second on a fielding error by the third baseman and took third on a ground out, Johnson lined a single to left to bring in Gray and get the Hawks closer, down 7-3.
Sean Woods (Clinton, Md.) came in the bottom of the sixth and pitched a perfect inning.
In the top of the seventh with one away, Gray walked and Bull doubled to put two runners in scoring position. Two batters later, Johnson earned his third RBI hit with a two-run line drive single to right to get UMES within two 7-5.
Woods pitched a scoreless seventh, but in the eighth, an Esposito suicide squeeze scored Vince Corbi to give UMBC an insurance run.
Bull reached base on a line drive single to right in the ninth, but UMES did not get another baserunner and fell to UMBC 8-5.
The win went to Ladner, who pitched six innings with three runs charged. Bone got the loss with five runs, just four earned, in two innings of relief. UMBC reliever Stephen Chrzanowski picked up a save, going the final three innings with two runs and three strikeouts.
Johnson finished the day bringing in four runs and going 3-for-4. Bull went 3-for-5 from the plate and scored twice.
Leadoff hitter McCabe led UMES with two hits and four at bats and two RBI. Gatto reached base three times, going 2-for-3 with a walk and an RBI.
UMES will prepare for the MEAC Tournament, taking on the 1-seed from the Southern Division on Wednesday, May 15th at 12:30 p.m. in Norfolk.

West Allegheny retools for run at Class AA repeat
TribLIVE Sports Videos
Building on last year's success, reigning Class AA Penguins Cup champion West Allegheny is aiming for a repeat.
However, this year's team won't be starting where last year's left off.
Eleven seniors, including captain Jared DiSanti, Jonathan Levitt, Patrick Coburn and goaltender Jason Kumpfmiller, have graduated.
"Those guys, they were a great part of the team and had a lot of skill and they had been varsity players for a really long time," said West Allegheny coach Timon Veach.
Last season's sophomore standout, Matt Grebosky, also has left the team.
Now, West Allegheny has many new faces. While the team, as a whole, is young and relatively inexperienced, the talent level is promising.
"There are some really highly skilled players on our team," said assistant coach Mike Kennedy. "Every player on our team is confident that they have the skills."
Senior forward Mason Ervin is the only fourth-year varsity player on the team. Eight players are returning for their second varsity season, and the remaining 12 are playing their first season at the varsity level.
Replacing Kumpfmiller, one of the best goaltenders in the league last season, are Grant Gerstner, a junior in his second varsity season, and sophomore Chris Carnot, who is playing on the varsity team for the first time.
"They're really coming into their own as far as learning the position," Kennedy said.
DiSanti had been the emotional leader in the locker room, something that the coaching staff has yet to see on this year's team.
"I think we just haven't uncovered who our leaders are going to be yet," Kennedy said.
The players are eager to get the season started and make their mark on the program.
"What I'm seeing is the younger kids, freshmen and sophomores, really stepping into those roles with their actions on the ice," Kennedy said.
They will need to focus on improving with each game and not let a loss impede the team's progress.
"Truly, the expectations this year are the same with us as last year. We want the same goal as last year, but the path is going to be completely different," Kennedy said. "We're not looking for a different outcome, (but) there's going to be some growing pains."
The coaching staff still is looking for consistency on the ice but is happy with the progress that the players have made over the summer.
"We have a young team and they need to get better, but they're putting the work in," Veach said.
Once the season starts, the Indians surely will be targeted by opponents looking to beat the reigning champions.
"Every single game, teams are going to be amped up to compete with us," Kennedy said.
"(Our players are) going to certainly have to adjust to that intensity level."

I'm going to call this a story of "second-hand serendipity."
First, let me say that I'm well aware that seemingly miraculous finds and "coincidences that can't be just coincidences" are common enough in genealogy that Henry Z. "Hank" Jones (in his books "Psychic Roots" and "More Psychic Roots") and Megan Smolenyak Smolenyak ("In Search of Our Ancestors" and "Honoring Our Ancestors") have literally filled volumes with them.
Secondly, I met Philadelphia-area genealogist Barry Becker through the bittersweet experience of a dinner in memory of John T. Humphrey, one of the foremost scholars of Germanic genealogy, who died suddenly in August 2012.
Becker is a cousin to Humphrey, but since his Pennsylvania German ancestry's geographic focus is a bit northeast of mine, I don't think either of us had thought too far in the direction of whether the two of us were cousins.
Then came a Facebook post from Becker about a weekend foray into the southern tier of Pennsylvania Dutch country.
"Yesterday, in a big sweep through antique stores in Lancaster and York counties, I found something genealogists only dream about," he wrote. "A huge pulpit-sized family Bible with a name I recognized from my family tree engraved in gold on the cover."
Becker went on to relate that the Bible included something he hadn't seen in other such books, a place to put family photos (two of which were still in the slots). He bought the family Bible for just $33.
The subject of the family Bible, Isaac W. Shower, was a nephew to Becker's great-great-great-grandmother, Anna Maria Schauer, who married Charles Becker.
But the fact that Becker's related to the one-time owner of the family Bible isn't the end of the serendipity.
That's because Schauer is one of my family names from my rather extensive connection to the families of the Tulpehocken region in western Berks and eastern Lebanon counties.
Becker and I traded emails and Facebook comments as we figured out our mutual relationship. Our mutual immigrant ancestor was a Michael Schauer, who was part of the 1709 group of Palatines who first landed in upstate New York before a substantial number became pioneers of the Tulpehocken in the 1720s.
In my ancestry, one of Michael's granddaughters married a Gruber; Becker's Schauer line lasted several generations before the Schauer-Becker marriage. Our distant relationship is "eighth cousins, once removed."
Not everyone was impressed, however. Michael Lacopo, a genealogist and mutual friend of ours from Indiana, brought us back down to earth with his playful Facebook comment: "Awwww ... it's like one big family reunion! Someone pass me a tissue ..."

This week's LIVE Setanta football
It is a busy week on Setanta Sports with action from the Champions League, Europa League and Barclays Premier League.
Champions League football returns on Tuesday and there is an early start for Neil Lennon's Celtic as they make the long journey to Russia to face Spartak Moscow in Group G.
Celtic did not managed a single shot on target on the opening matchday and fans will be hoping for an improved performance when they play in front of the Setanta Sports cameras at the Luzhniki.
The Hoops face a big test against their Russian opponents, but it could prove to be an interesting match, with kick-off scheduled for 5.00pm on Setanta Ireland.
There will be no need to change challenge as Setanta Ireland is also the place to watch Chelsea take on FC Nordsjaelland from 7.45pm.
The reigning Champions League holders will be hoping for better luck after letting a two-goal lead slip against Juventus last time and Roberto Di Matteo has an almost full-strength squad to choose from.
Ryan Bertrand and Cesar Azpilicueta are in with a good chance of starts against the Champions League debutants.
Arsenal welcome Olympiakos to the Emirates Stadium on Wednesday and Arsene Wenger will be looking to build on the 2-1 win over Montpellier on matchday one.
Wenger slammed his side's defending against Chelsea on Saturday and he will demand an improved performance when the Greek side visit London, in a match which is live on Setanta Ireland from 7.30pm.
If you prefer to watch the exploits of Cristiano Ronaldo, switch to Setanta Sports 1 for Ajax's clash with Real Madrid
Real Madrid staged a brilliant fight back in matchday one to beat Manchester City 3-2 and Jose Mourinho's men will be favourites to get all three points, although the Dutch outfit will not go down without a fight.
It's the Europa League on Thursday and following the hard-fought win over Young Boys, Liverpool will be hoping for an easier time against Udinese.
Brendan Rodgers men were comfortable 5-2 winners against Norwich at the weekend and all the signs from Liverpool appear to be good. While they are some way off the top of the Premier League, they can take another step towards the knockout stages of the Europa League with victory in front of their home fans on Thursday.
Liverpool's game against Udinese is live on Setanta Sports 1, with kick-off at 8.05pm.
At the same time on Setanta Ireland, Newcastle entertain Bordeaux at the Sports Direct Arena.
The Magpies had to come back to rescue a draw with Reading at the weekend and they are still looking for their first win in the Europa League after the 0-0 draw with Maritimo last time.
The Premier League returns on Saturday afternoon and Setanta's featured game sees Chelsea entertain Norwich at Stamford Bridge.
Norwich have yet to record a victory in the Premier League this season and things are not going to get any easier for them this week as they face a daunting trip to top of the table Chelsea.
The Blues are three points clear of Everton with five wins from their opening six matches and it is hard to see anything other than a Chelsea win on Saturday.
Setanta Ireland is the place to watch the Canaries try to inflict a first defeat of the season on the Blues and coverage begins at 2.30pm with kick-off scheduled for 3.00pm.
This week's LIVE football on Setanta
Spartak Moscow v Celtic, 5.00pm, Setanta Sports Ireland
FC Nordsjaelland v Chelsea, 7.45pm, Setanta Sports Ireland
Ajax v Real Madrid, 7.45pm, Setanta Sports 1

Mamie Doud Eisenhower Public Library to become Family Place Library as part of a National Leadership Grant!
The Institute of Museum and Library Services (IMLS) has awarded the Middle Country Public Library a National Leadership Grant to support their Family Place Libraries initiative. Twenty-eight libraries in 7 states will be a part of this grant and our Children's Library is one of them! The grant money will be distributed over the next three years to fund staff training, site visits and project implementation. Middle Country Library staff will work with our library to implement and evaluate Family Place Libraries, a library-based early childhood and family support service model. This multi-phase program will focus on parents and caregivers as first teachers, will be organized around the developmental needs of the child and will link library services with other regional and local family support agencies. The program emphasizes libraries as key institutions within the early childhood and family support community and partners in the promotion of healthy child and family development. The goal is to develop lifelong learners while fostering home/library/community connections to provide community support for families with very young children.

Microsoft has released SQL Server 2005 Service Pack 3 Beta. SP3 contains all cumulative updates for SQL Server 2005 plus a handful of other fixes. If you've kept on top of the cumulative updates there really isn't much new in SP3, which makes me wonder why these weren't just rolled into a cumulative update #11. Nevertheless, here's what Microsoft's "What's New" page shows:
- One update for DBCC commands in the DB Engine
- Support for running notifications services against SQL 2008
- An additional parameter for sp_showpendingchanges to help identify pending changes of replication subscribers
- Three updates to Reporting Services
This is a "for testing purposes" only release so use it at your own risk.

As the units landing in the airdrop secured their positions on Sunday, September 17th of 1944, the XXX Corps under the command of General Horrocks formed up a few miles south of the Holland-Belgium border to launch the second half of the Market Garden operation that would see an armored spearhead penetrate deep into Holland and link up with the Airborne forces holding key points along the way. In order for the airdrop to have any hope of success, the area each drop secured would have to be reinforced, established and widened with forces on the ground. Without this, the surrounded forces, cut off and behind enemy lines, would be encircled and destroyed in detail. The Allied high command believed that just as there were only the sparsest elements of resistance that could be brought to bear against the airborne soldiers, only a paltry defense could be offered up against any armored strike.
For the part of the Germans, there had already been a great deal of fighting in Belgium. They assumed that a strike across the Dutch border was more or less a given, as Allied offensives struck in this general direction. It was only a few days prior to Market Garden that the bridges that lead to the Belgian-Holland border were actually captured by XXX corps. As such there could be no element of surprise as was evidenced by the airborne landings themselves. For the tankers pushing towards Arnhem, their opponent had been both fighting and watching them for some time and was preparing for the next round of combat that was to take place.
Certainly, the German forces exploited a certain degree of territorial advantage over the Allied liberators up to this point. In France and Belgium, they had made expert use of the terrain features unique to each region to slow and pin down Allied armies. It took time to adapt to these new realities, but eventually Allied armies were able to mitigate or nullify these advantages. However, the end result was still that a relatively weaker force in material, manpower and now even training was able to offer up more resistance than they should have in the face overwhelming Allied combat superiority. Holland would be no different, but it would offer the Germans just as many obstacles as benefits in the coming days. It became quickly apparent that the low-lying boggy terrain, in addition to the design of the few roads cutting through the countryside would be a hindrance to any passing vehicles, German or Allied. Roads were either elevated, sunken or surrounded by difficult ditches or embankments, forcing most vehicles to stay on the main roads. In addition to this, the surrounding ground was extremely soft, and any tank wishing to travel cross-country would quickly become stuck. Lastly, there were, as in France there plenty of places to hide and launch ambushes from in wooded lots or obstructions cordoning off agricultural land. All this helped balance the odds for the shrunken German armies, and they took full advantage of this.
To work against the possibility of ambush, especially one that would delay an operation where time was crucial, the XXX Corps turned to the preponderance in air and artillery power that they could bring to bear. Preregistered targets along the road were given to the aerial and ground attackers and two hours before the assault, they slammed the stretch of road soon to be dubbed Hells Highway with everything they had. The XXX Corps had expected that the preceding artillery and aerial bombardments would neutralize any German anti-tank defenses in the sector. However, as was proving the case since the Allies landed in Normandy, such preparatory strikes had little effect on dug in and concealed soldiers and equipment. When the time came to execute the attack, the forward positions of the units around the border of Holland and Belgium were neutralized, but this would draw in Allied armor in closer to better protected units in the interior. To lead this spearhead into Holland the tanks of the veteran Irish Guards division formed up and waited for the bombardment to end and the mobilizing orders to be given. They would be the first Allied armor to enter Holland and the first to experience the difficulties of what would be called Hell's Highway.
Scenario MG-2: Hell's Highway Christened
At 1435 Hours the spearhead of the XXX Corps advance into Holland, the Irish Guards Division, moves along the road to Valkenswaard. SS and Fallshirmjäger forces lie in wait, hidden amongst the trees and boggy terrain.
Allied Objectives
Time is of the utmost importance here, as armored forces must make it to Eindhoven and link up with the 101st Airborne as soon as possible. Any hold up here could leave the Paratroopers stranded. Conversely, any supply lines cannot be maintained with extensive enemy presence still in the area. Destroy all opposition if possible and speed on your way to Valkenswaard so that the spearhead can move onward to Eindhoven before sundown.
Axis Objectives
The bombardment has made everyone hunkering down in the trench-works behind the border distinctly aware that a massive Allied operation was underway. The marshy forested terrain has been your home for the last few months and now it will be your greatest weapon as the haughty Allied tanks rumble forward, certain that they will simply drive on through to the Rhine. Ambush and annihilate the Allied spearhead to a man. Damage, destroy and immobilize all vehicles and put a stop to this offensive before it gets started.
German forces in the area simply laid waste to the spearhead. The preparatory bombardment had been for naught. Only with continued bombardment and aerial strikes were the German guns silenced, and their soldiers forced to retreat to their hiding places in the woods. Over the next few hours, no less than 250 sorties were lead by Typhoons to strike at targets along the five mile stretch of highway. Once in the open, the German guns and vehicles became easy prey to more remote attacks. Still, the XXX Corps faced a difficult problem as the road was the only reliable passage to Eindhoven. Cross-country travel for the Allied tankers was rendered impossible by the imposing earthen obstacles along the roads and the soft ground that would have to be traversed off the main highways.
Burning and wrecked vehicles clogged the highway, slowing down the movement of additional forces to continue the push to their target of Valkenswaard. As reserves moved up along the road the encountered further ambushes that stalled their line throughout the day. The first tanks arrived in Valkenswaald at 17:30 hours, well short of their end-of-the-day target of Eindhoven. All told, two regiments supported by a StuG company held of an entire corps for the better part of a day. It was clear that the lightning thrust of an armored breakthrough was not to happen here. The Wehrmacht was no longer in freefall, and the Allies had a tough slog to Arnhem and beyond. (German Victory 14 – 0)

ELK GROVE, CA - Two Elk Grove youngsters took to the highway for a remarkable journey on specialized skateboards to highlight the challenge of autism.
Daniel Houze and Blake Stassi, both 15, hatched the plan during Christmas break. Both boys have cousins who are coping with autism.
"I thought that autism needed some recognition, that people needed to see what these families go through to help deal with their children," said Houze.
The pair hatched a plan to ride their long-board skateboards from Stanford University to the University of California, Los Angeles. They began on Sunday, June 12, sometimes riding up to 60 miles in a single day. They arrived at UCLA the following Friday.
"Some days weren't too bad and we'd only go 30 miles, and some days we'd really have to push ourselves and go 60," said Stassi.
Both attend Bradshaw Christian School and share a love of long-boarding.
Stassi said he also wanted people to understand the challenge his own extended family has faced with a 10-year old cousin who has autism.
"Every time I hang out with her, everytime I go to my grandparents' house and she's there, you can just see the way that their family is impacted by it. And it just really makes you want to help," he said.
Daniel Houze Sr. said he believes the boys and their families learned a lesson in carrying a complicated plan to a successful ending.
"With inspiration, intent, desire and motivation, that parents and children can do anything," the older Houze said.
The teens rounded up sponsors and started a website where people can contribute to their cause at www.elevateawareness.tumblr.com.
