WHEELING - It took double overtime for the Wheeling Central girls' basketball team to defeat city rival Wheeling Park in their first meeting of the 2011-2012 season on the home boards of the Patriots.

Tuesday night, playing in front of an excited, near-packed house at the Maroon Knights' gym on 13th Street, Coach Penn Kurtz's club led from wire-to-wire in knocking off West Virginia's No. 3-ranked Class AAA power by a 52-44 score.
The season sweep gave Wheeling Central, ranked No. 1 in the Class A division, its 15th victory in 18 starts. Wheeling Park stands at 16-3 heading into next week's OVAC Tournament.
Colleen McCormick scored 18 points and collected 10 rebounds to pace the Maroon Knights, followed by Emily Bucon's 15 points and 11 from Cassie Sorge.
But it was Wheeling Central's stifling defense that won the evening in the rematch as the hosts successfully limited Park's damage both inside and outside. During the first three quarters, the visitors managed to convert just 10 of 37 field goal attempts. The Patriots finished the game shooting only 30 percent (15 of 50).
''We've worked on (defense) a lot since the last time we played them,'' Kurtz said. ''Park can put a lot of good offensive players out there and it is tough stopping them most nights because of the way they spread the floor. We did a good job of stopping their ball penetration and giving help inside.''
Special kudos went to Sorge and Bucon, who had the task of staying with the Patriots' top offensive threats Emily Puskarich and Haley Robb.
Puskarich ended up with 14 points on just 6 of 16 shooting and six of her points came in the latter stages of the fourth quarter.
''Cassie did a great job on Puskarich both times we played them," Kurtz said. ''Emily only had six points in the first game and we held her down again (Tuesday night) although she hit some shots at the end.''
The big difference was a defensive change the Central coaches decided upon after Robb had blitzed the Maroon Knights for 36 points the first time around. Bucon drew the assignment this time and helped limit Robb's wide-open looks as the torrid-shooting junior managed to connect on only 3 of 15 shot attempts. Two of her buckets were 3s as she finished with 10 points.
''We switched to Emily because she is taller and it really worked out,'' Kurtz said. ''Haley is one of the best 3-point shooters around and they run a lot of stuff to get her open. Emily didn't come out of the game for one second and she worked hard on both ends of the floor.''
The Patriots had difficulty defensively trying to hold down McCormick and Bucon. McCormick opened the game with two nice drives on the right baseline for layups. Krista Crawshaw dropped a pair of free throws through the cords to put the Patriots within 4-2.
Sorge, fouled on a drive to basket, went 1-for-2 at the line and McCormick then scored from the left side after another slick move. Bucon's dribble penetration and layin extended Central's early lead to 9-2.
The Maroon Knights were in front by eight when Marissa Tucker trimmed the deficit to 14-9 at the end of the first quarter.
Ashley Martin, 5-foot-11 senior, also helped out on the defensive end early in the second quarter by swatting away two shots by the shorter Park guards. Bucon then drained a 3-pointer for a 17-9 lead.
Taking advantage of some loose ballhanding by the Central offense, which had seven of its 14 turnovers in the second quarter, the Patriots eventually pulled to within 20-19 as Robb finally got some shooting room and buried a 3-pointer. A few minutes later, Robb made it a 22-21 game with a transition hoop. Sorge then responded with a fast-break goal and two McCormick free throws restored the Maroon Knights lead to five points at 26-21 at the half.
Four points from Julia Palmer midway through the third quarter enabled the Maroon Knights to take their largest lead, 34-24. However, Park battled back to within seven at 38-31 entering the final eight minutes.
Tucker hit a transition basket and Kambria O'Neal scored on a stickback early in the fourth quarter to get the Patriots back within three at 38-35. But Sorge's entry pass to Bucon for a layup made it a five-point lead again. Crawshaw's foul toss was followed by inside baskets from McCormick and Bucon putting Central in front 44-36 with four minutes remaining.
Park rallied again to within 44-40 on two Puskarich free throws and a nice move down the lane by Tucker. With time becoming a factor, the Patriots had to start fouling. Two free throws by Bri Robbins, her only points of the game, put Central up 46-40. Sorge then helped close out the victory by sinking 4 of 6 chances at the foul line during the final 1:13.
''Central did a nice job defensively on us but I think our kids were a little passive offensively," Park coach Meredith Dailer said. ''We talked about attacking their defense, especially on the offside, but we weren't able to do it. We didn't get a lot inside and give them a lot of credit. They worked hard early keeping us away from the offensive glass.
''It's disappointing to lose here but we can't dwell on it. We've got to get ready to play (John Marshall) in the OVAC Tournament. Hopefully, there's a lot of good stuff ahead of us the next several weeks.''

Unconventional Drinking: "Working" the floor at The New York Bar and Wine ShowBrandy/Cognac, News and Dish, Tequila/Mezcal, Tips and Trends, Vodka, Whiskey No Comments »
By Ernest Barteldes
The New York Bar and Wine Show, an annual two-day convention that takes place at Midtown Manhattan's Jacob Javits Convention Center, showcases what's new in the beverage industry, from special registers wirelessly attached to bottles (to better control the drinks sold) to novelties like a Russian roulette-style game wherein a plastic revolver has a chamber that releases a shot of liquor to the lucky 'winner'—if the 'loaded' chamber ends up in his or her hand (think bachelor parties and dorm rooms, if you're wondering who would do this).
But the greatest attraction is, of course, the booze, and this year's event had plenty, ranging from new liquor brands, international beers and wines to the latest ideas in mixology presented by different bartenders from all over the world. Read the rest of this entry »

The Windsor Essex County Health Unit will join local health units in Ontario in petitioning the provincial government to help people on social assistance afford nutritious food.
The board of the unit voted unanimously on Thursday afternoon to petition the premier to implement a $100 Healthy Food Supplement for social assistance recipients.
Jennifer MacLellan, a registered dietitian who works with the health unit, said it is people on social assistance that are suffering most when it comes to accessing healthy and nutritious food, and in the long run, poor nutrition leads to far worse health problems.
Speaking to the board, MacLellan cited statistics which show the cost of feeding a family of four on a regular, healthy diet is now more than $166 per week. A decade ago, it was just over $100.
High rates of unemployment and underemployment point to a real risk of food insecurity in Windsor-Essex, MacLellan said.
A growing number of people cannot afford or physically access the right types of foods, she said.
Just the fact that food bank use was up 20 per cent last year is an indicator, she said, and research shows that poor nutrition leads to obesity, depression, and much more serious chronic health problems such as diabetes.
Take a look at Statistics Canada's health profile for the Windsor-Essex County Health Unit, which includes the rate of fresh fruit and vegetable consumption.
More to come.

Where can I find audio recordings (i.e. individual MP3s or WAVs) for every Chinese word? I have found some recordings of Chinese, but these only contain individual phonemes, not entire words. I am looking for something to download or as something to buy (e.g. as part of a dictionary).
Sign up
- Anybody can ask a question
- Anybody can answer
- The best answers are voted up and rise to the top
For example, you can go to Forvo.com. (You can find the Chinese section at this address; on the right you see the top users that provided most audios.)
It's a huge database of words, characters, expressions in any language provided by users. The good thing is there's a lot of stuff, but the down-side is that although some users provided many audios (so you have a sort of consistency), you'll have to switch between different audios not recorded professionally, although they usually are not low quality.
Another web site is http://www.iciba.com where you can find not only the pronunciation of Chinese characters and words, but also their meaning in English and Chinese.
This site has real person readings, but unfortunately the site is totally in Chinese:
Each of the words you look up in the dictionary there comes complete with an audio recording.
You can do this with Google Translate. To get downloads in mp3 format, see responses to this Stack Exchange question.

Atlanta, GA (Sports Network) - Marcus Georges-Hunt led the way with 18 points
as the Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets defeated the Georgia Bulldogs, 62-54, in an
interstate clash at McCamish Pavilion.
Mfon Udofia added 12 points for the Yellow Jackets (5-2)
For the Bulldogs (2-6), Kentavious Caldwell-Pope posted a double-double with
16 points and 13 rebounds.
Neither team could find the basket in the first half. Both squads shot just
34.6 percent from the field. The teams did have different success from long
range though. Georgia missed all but one of its nine 3-point attempts,
while Georgia Tech was able to connect on 6-of-10 from beyond the arc,
allowing the Yellow Jackets to take a 35-22 advantage into halftime.
After the break, the teams continued to shoot poorly, with the Yellow Jackets
making just 31.8 percent from the field and the Bulldogs just 29.0 percent.
The Bulldogs were able to cut their deficit to just five, 55-50, with little
over two minutes remaining in regulation, but the Yellow Jackets were able to
hold on down the stretch to secure the road victory.
Georgia Tech finished the contest with a 27-6 scoring advantage from 3-point
range. The Bulldogs dominated in the paint, outscoring the Yellow Jackets

Tea: a Mirror of Soul
Ancient Japan. Seikyo, a prince by birth, tells his fellow monks the story of how he came to the temple: Years earlier, in China, seeking to marry Princess Lan, Seikyo confronts her jealous brother, the Prince, and must answer his challenge: find The Book of Tea and reveal its secret wisdom.
In the distant south, Lu, daughter of the Tea Sage, relinquishes the book on condition that Seikyo and Lan vow to spread its truth throughout the world. Before they can read it, the Prince attacks Seikyo, and Lan is killed when she intervenes. The grief-stricken Prince offers himself in sacrifice, but Seikyo declines, choosing instead to cut off his own hair and take a monk's vow.
Combining sounds of water, paper, ceramic and stone with a traditional western orchestra, Tan Dun's haunting score is trance-like and beautiful. Tea: A Mirror of Soul is highly theatrical, visually stunning, and charged with eroticism, ritual and poetry. This will be an extraordinary and deeply rewarding opera experience.

I own a 13" MacBook Pro and the sleeve is a little big. It's also a bit puffy. The protection is good for just sliding into a backpack but not very good for being dropped. Since it does not have a hard shell, some pressure could likely damage the laptop. It has a nice feel and the pink is a good color.

Hi everyone,
I've got Zimbra 6.0.7 running and have CardDAV configured on both my Mac (Address Book) and my iPhone 4. It works great! Kudos to the Zimbra development team. However, I've noticed one slight issue when viewing address book entries on the iPhone.
When I view any notes that I have assigned to a contact (the vCard "NOTE" field), any place where I have a return character, I see the upper case character "N" on the iPhone instead. The notes don't include any line breaks on the iPhone. I'm guessing this is an iOS bug, but perhaps there could be a Zimbra work-around? When viewing the same contact in the Apple Address Book, it looks fine. And if I export the contact from Address Book, the vCard file shows "\n" (the newline character) as I would expect. The notes also render fine when viewed in the Zimbra web interface.
Anyone else seeing this same issue?

(SportsNetwork.com) - Ryan Miller and the Buffalo Sabres took just about
everything the Washington Capitals had the last time the clubs met and came
away with a shootout victory.
The Sabres try to knock off the Capitals again on Sunday afternoon and snap an
11-game road losing streak in the process.
Buffalo hosted Washington on Dec. 29 and was outshot 50-17 in the game, but
Miller helped the Sabres steal a 2-1 shootout win. The netminder had 49 saves
through overtime and stopped all six skaters faced in the tiebreaker.
Steve Ott had the shootout winner for the Sabres, who had lost all three of
their games versus the Capitals last season.
Philipp Grubauer got the start in net that day for the Capitals and only had
to make 16 saves through 65 minutes, but couldn't handle Ott's blast over his
right shoulder.
Miller is 14-11-0 with a 2.51 goals against average and three shutouts in his
career versus the Capitals and is likely to start today.
Buffalo's win over Washington was part of a five-game home winning streak that
was snapped on Thursday with a 2-1 shootout setback to the Florida Panthers.
Jhonas Enroth got the start in net and had 34 saves through overtime and then
stopped the first two skaters he faced in the shootout. That includes a
second-round stop on Jonathan Huberdeau after it was ruled the Panther skater
pushed Enroth into the net as the puck crossed the goal line.
Brad Boyes, though, fired a shot in the next round that hit off the post and
then bounced off the back of Enroth for the deciding tally.
"I don't know if it's bad luck. He's one of the best in the league in
shootouts and it's pretty much impossible to stop him in the shootout. It's a
great shot. I've got to give it to him," said Enroth.
Jamie McBain scored the only goal in regulation for the Sabres, who were
without defenseman Tyler Myers as he served the opener of a three-game
suspension for an illegal hit in last Saturday's win over New Jersey.
Buffalo has scored two goals or fewer in five straight and will try to
increase that production and win on the road for the first time since Nov. 5
in San Jose. The Sabres are 0-9-2 as the guest since and 3-14-2 overall on the
road this season.
They are expected to have both Cody Hodgson and Ville Leino in the lineup
today. Both forwards practiced on Sunday, with Hodgson set to return after
missing eight straight with an upper-body injury. Leino has missed the past
three contests with a lower-body ailment.
Washington has won seven of its past eight at home versus Buffalo and picked
up its second straight win overall with Friday's 3-2 decision over the Toronto
Maple Leafs. The Capitals had gone 0-2-2 before winning consecutive games for
the first time since a three-game win streak from Dec. 7-10.
Alex Ovechkin had a goal and an assist, while Joel Ward notched the game-
winner in the third period. Nicklas Backstrom added a tally and Michal
Neuvirth made 32 saves in his first start since Nov. 22.
"We felt good out there tonight," said Ovechkin. "(Thursday) night's game (a
4-3 victory at Tampa Bay) was fun and it's really important for us to get
these points right now. We're fighting for a spot and we need to get on a roll
before the Olympics."
Washington is 6-2-2 in its last eight home games.
Ovechkin leads the NHL with 32 goals, reaching the mark in 42 games. He scored
32 goals in 48 contests during last season's lockout-shortened schedule.
The Caps continue to carry three goaltenders on their roster in Braden Holtby,
Grubauer and Neuvirth. It is unknown who will start today.

NASHVILLE, Tennessee (AP) — George Jones may be gone, but he certainly won't be forgotten at this year's Country Music Association Awards.
The CMA says two of its most-nominated singers — George Strait and Alan Jackson — will team up in a tribute to the late country legend.
Jones died earlier this year at age 81. Now that Strait is performing, all five of the entertainer-of-the-year nominees will be singing during the Nov. 6 ceremony in Nashville. The others are Taylor Swift, Jason Aldean, Luke Bryan and Blake Shelton.

Okay, so as promised, here's the second method.
As before the image will have a base layer with the colours on it, and an overlay layer that generates the light and shade. This post (and the couple that follow it) will show how to generate a decent overlay layer using filters rather than drawing it in by hand.
First create a new transparent layer using the layers dialogue, or Layers->New Layer (shift-ctrl-n). On this layer use the lasoo tool to select the border of your mountain shape. It doesn't have to be exact. Here's mine:
Now we want to use gradient fill to fill this with a gradient that goes from white along the ridge lines to black along the edges. Here's the settings I use for my gradient settings. I've highlighted the important ones - especially Shape: Shaped(angular):
Now click and drag a line from the middle of your selection to one of the edges of the selection. This should fill the selection with your gradient. Now invert the selection (ctrl-I), grow the selection by 1 pixel (Select->Grow selection) and fill with black, you should have something like this:
This will be the layer we use as a bump map.
Next, create a new layer and fill it with 50% grey. This will be our overlay layer. Go to Filters->Map->Bump Map. In this dialogue select your gradient filled layer as the map in the drop down menu. Play with the depth setting to get a reasonably dark shadow and make sure you select the angle for the azimuth so that you have the light coming from the right direction:
When you are happy with the preview, hit okay and you should get something that looks a little like this:

Air Cargo: Freight payload must keep pace with passengers in Asia Pacific
June 28, 2011 - LM Editorial
As we discussed last week, air cargo shippers are increasingly concerned about the ongoing recovery of service in the Asia Pacific trade lanes.
The International Air Transport Association (IATA) has already chimed in on this issue, and now we are hearing from Association of Asia Pacific Airlines (AAPA).
"The decline in international air cargo traffic reported for May this year reflects some moderation in the pace of global economic growth, affecting Asian exports, especially when compared to the very strong rebound in demand seen last year," Andrew Herdman, AAPA Director General said. However, we may see volumes pick up again in the traditionally stronger second half of the year."
Herdman noted that over the first five months of the year, Asian airlines have seen 2.5 percent growth in the number of international passengers carried, whereas international air cargo traffic has declined by 2.4 percent during the same period.
"The combination of slower revenue growth and sharply higher fuel costs means airline operating margins are under severe pressure," he said. "Continued vigilance in controlling costs, and carefully matching capacity to the projected changes in demand will be the key to sustaining profitability."

Company Spent $200 Million In Marshall County
January 20, 2013
PROCTOR — With large trucks traveling on narrow roads, Michael McCown knows the process of drilling and fracking a $7 million Marcellus Shale well can create plenty of disruption for a community....
they did put in some nice quad trails.

Marcellus, you have to be joking. West Virginia, the mine waste capital of the world, being "spoiled" by the tiny footprint left by drill rigs? Give it a decade,and you will be hard pressed to even find the sites. Next time you fly into Dallas, look around. There are dozens of wells on the property, and unless you know where to look, you can't tell.
Mikeyd, give it a few years. Trees don't grow overnight.

Nicely written article promoting industry's usual spin: MONEY. While few will profit, many will suffer the impacts. You really have to see Marshall County from the air to get a real sense of the environmental destruction that has already taken place.. it resembles mountaintop removal. The "almost" in "Almost Heaven West Virginia" is getting farther away by the minute. Another beautiful area getting destroyed by the oil and gas industry for huge private profits. Money, money, money.

Charlottesville, VA (Sports Network) - Michael Rocco's 10-yard touchdown pass
to Jake McGee with six seconds remaining lifted the Virginia Cavaliers to a
41-40 win over the Miami Hurricanes in an ACC thriller at Scott Stadium.
Rocco finished with 300 passing yards and four touchdowns on 29-of-37
accuracy. Dominique Terrell hauled in nine passes for 127 yards, while Darius
Jennings caught a pair of touchdown passes for the Cavaliers (4-6, 2-4 ACC).
The Hurricanes (5-5, 4-3), who entered the weekend atop the Coastal Division
standings, find themselves needing to win one of their final two games to
become bowl eligible. Duke Johnson had 150 rushing yards on 16 carries in the
loss, and he also threw for a touchdown and returned a kick for a score.
The teams combined to put 35 points on the board in a blistering first
quarter. Rocco opened the scoring four minutes into the game with a seven-yard
touchdown pass to Miles Gooch.
Miami marched 75 yards in seven plays during its opening possession, scoring
on a halfback pass as Johnson found Allen Hurns for an eight-yard touchdown.
UVA answered right back. Rocco capped a 78-yard drive with a six-yard TD pass
to Jennings, putting the Cavaliers on top, 14-7.
After throwing his first career touchdown pass on Miami's previous drive,
Johnson quieted the home crowd by returning the ensuing kickoff 95 yards to
the end zone to knot the score at 14 apiece.
However, the Cavs would once again respond, as Phillip Sims found the end zone
on a six-yard run with 1:40 to play in the opening frame.
Miami made it a 21-21 game on Hurns' 12-yard TD reception from Stephen Morris
on the first play of the second quarter.
The 'Canes took the lead on Jake Wieclaw's 30-yard field goal midway through
the second stanza.
UVA regained the lead following its next possession, as Kevin Parks finished
off a nine-play, 76-yard drive with a three-yard touchdown scamper.
Both defenses settled down a bit in the second half. The only points of the
third quarter belonged to Miami, as Morris found Clive Walford for a nine-yard
TD pass midway through the frame.
The Hurricanes stretched their advantage to 38-28 on Morris' 35-yard scoring
strike to Phillip Dorsett at the 11:38 mark of the fourth quarter.
The Cavaliers cut the deficit to 38-35 with 5:33 to play, as Rocco connected
with Jennings for another touchdown, this time from five yards to cap a 12-
play, 71-yard drive that lasted more than six minutes.
UVA's defense forced a three-and-out and regained possession at its own 12-
yard line with 4:27 remaining. But on the second play of that possession,
Rocco was sacked in the end zone for a safety, making it a 40-35 game.
However, the Cavaliers would have the last laugh. UVA's final drive covered 87
yards in 16 plays and lasted only 2:32, with Rocco finding McGee for the game-
winner in the final seconds.
The Cavaliers offense converted 9-of-14 third downs for the game and came away
with touchdowns on all six of their trips inside the red zone. Prior to the
game, Miami announced the suspensions of starting wide receiver Rashawn Scott
and starting linebacker Eddie Johnson, while starting outside linebacker
Denzel Perryman did not travel with the team because of an ankle injury.

Houston, TX (Sports Network) - Jeremy Lin dominated the headlines coming into
Friday's game between Houston and New York, but Chandler Parsons stole the
spotlight with a career-high 31 points on 13-of-17 shooting.
Parsons added five rebounds, four assists, four steals and a block in the
Rockets' 131-103 victory over the Knicks.
Lin ended with 13 points, seven rebounds and one steal against his former
team. Once on the brink of being out of the league, Lin became an
overnight sensation in New York last season when he recorded at least 20
points nine times over a 10-game stretch from Feb. 4-20, a span in which the
Knicks went 8-2 with a six-game winning streak. The undrafted Harvard product
had his campaign cut short after 35 games (25 starts) due to a knee injury.
The Rockets signed Lin to a three-year, $25 million offer sheet in the
offseason. The Knicks opted not to match and Lin became a Rocket.
James Harden added 33 points and went 16-of-16 from the foul line for the
Rockets, who have won six in a row against the Knicks.
Carmelo Anthony made seven 3-pointers en route to 37 points for New York,
which has lost two straight for the first time this season. Raymond Felton
donated 17 points and eight assists.

Department Chair: Gary Brown
Faculty: Marc Brodie, Gary Brown, Philip Byrne, Robert Dumonceaux, Jennifer Galovich, Michael Gass, David Hartz, Robert Hesse, James Johnson, Kristen Nairn, Thomas Sibley, Michael Tangredi;
Math Skills Center Director: Marilyn Creed
The mathematics department offers courses to fit the needs of a wide variety of students: the student majoring in mathematics, the student majoring in another field who needs or chooses supporting courses in mathematics and the general liberal arts student.
Since a knowledge of mathematics can be useful in disciplines as diverse as biology, philosophy and economics, the mathematics department offers a number of options to students. The major offerings are flexible enough to prepare students to apply for further study in graduate school, for a career in secondary education or as a mathematician or statistician in business or industry. It is also possible for a student to arrange for an individualized major in mathematics and another discipline. This should be done in careful consultation with a member of the mathematics department and a member of the student's major department. A student majoring in another discipline may choose to minor in mathematics. A major in elementary education may choose a minor in mathematics or the concentration designed especially for elementary teachers. (See the education department listing for more information.)
In addition to the formal courses described below, there are many other opportunities available for students interested in mathematics. An individual learning project on a topic of mutual interest can be designed with the assistance of a faculty member. An active student math club and a local chapter of Pi Mu Epsilon (a national honor society for students of mathematics) cooperate with the mathematics department to offer a rich program of seminars, films, visiting speakers, career information and social activities. Each spring the department hosts a regional Pi Mu Epsilon conference at which students and faculty from several colleges gather at Saint Benedict's and Saint John's for two days of presentations by students and invited speakers.
Each semester a number of mathematics majors are invited by the department to serve as teaching assistants paid on an hourly basis. Some mathematics majors are also employed to teach labs which accompany the pre-calculus and calculus courses. Those labs, which meet regularly, provide students with additional opportunities to discuss course material and to practice problem-solving skills.
Mathematics as a skill and as a theoretical structure has played a crucial role in modern civilization as well as in the everyday lives of individuals. Therefore, as a part of the core curriculum, all students will be required to take and pass one course which satisfies the core requirement in mathematics. While different courses cover different topics, all mathematics core courses stress mathematics as a conceptual discipline, and address issues in the history, philosophy and contemporary role of mathematics. Students enrolled in core courses are actively involved in doing mathematics. The director of the Math Skills Center will provide assistance for students who have not fulfilled this requirement.
The mathematics department offers concentrations in mathematics and mathematics/secondary education; it also offers a major in numerical computation jointly with the computer science department. Information about the numerical computation major is in a separate section for that major.
Special Requirements:
Students anticipating a major in mathematics and/or the natural sciences ordinarily begin their study of mathematics with 119. However, a student needing further preparation before beginning calculus, either 119 or 123, should enroll in 115. Students interested in advanced placement should contact the department chair.
Admission to the major requires a grade of C or higher in MATH 119, 120 and MATH 239 or 241.
Before admission to the major (ordinarily in the sophomore year), prospective majors must consult with their advisors in the mathematics department to plan their mathematics courses. Students should choose their courses and non-curricular activities with regard to their goals for careers and graduate school. Students should be aware of which semesters upper-division mathematics courses will be offered.
Senior majors are required to take a comprehensive exam in mathematics.
Prospective majors should have familiarity with computer programming before taking upper-division mathematics courses. Students preparing for graduate school in mathematics should include 332 and 344 or 348.
Concentration in Mathematics (40 credits)
Required Courses:
119, 120, 239, 241, 331, 343 plus 16 addition upper-division credits in mathematics.
Concentration in Mathematics/Secondary Education (40 credits)
Required Courses:
Same as concentration in mathematics, but include 333, 345.
At least 1 credit in 105-108 or 300-303 (History of Mathematics) is also recommended. Check with the chairs of the education department and the mathematics department for requirements for certification by the Minnesota Department of Education. See the education department listing for minor requirements.

(Sports Network) - The New York Rangers will try to win consecutive games for
the first time this season when they host the rival Philadelphia Flyers in
Tuesday's battle at Madison Square Garden.
This game is a rematch of Thursday's battle in Philadelphia, which the Flyers
won in regulation by a 2-1 score. However, New York was able to follow that
loss with Saturday's 5-2 win against visiting Toronto and the Blueshirts hope
to make it two in a row on Tuesday.
Marian Gaborik had two goals and two assists to help the Rangers down the
Maple Leafs over the weekend. Gaborik provided the go-ahead score in the third
period, as New York erased a 2-0 first-period deficit en route to the win.
Marc Staal and Brad Richards each posted a goal and an assist for the Rangers,
who won for just the second time in five games this season. Henrik Lundqvist
made 15 saves in the win.
Toronto had a one-goal lead heading into the third, but Staal tied the game at
the 7:36 mark. The Rangers then went on top with 7:03 to play as a slap shot
from Staal at the left point was redirected into the net by Gaborik for a 3-2
lead. Michael Del Zotto added insurance with 2:52 remaining and Gaborik capped
the scoring with an empty-netter.
"You learn about team character and what you've got in the room," said Rangers
center Brian Boyle on the team's third-period comeback. "I think that was the
closest we've come to what we feel is our identity."
New York was in the news Monday for backing out of a contract agreement with
Jason Arnott due to concerns about the veteran center's health. Arnott and the
Rangers had come to terms on a one-year, $1.6 million contract on Saturday
pending a physical, but reports said the team will not proceed in negotiations
with the 38-year-old after reviewing his medical records.
The 18-year veteran did play in 72 games with the St. Louis Blues a season
ago, recording 17 goals and 17 assists, but underwent arthroscopic knee
surgery during the offseason.
The Rangers are 2-1-0 on home ice in the early going and they'll close a
three-game homestand Thursday against Pittsburgh.
The Flyers, meanwhile, are playing the third segment of a four-game road trip
on Monday and Philly hopes to rebound from a rough loss in Tampa on Sunday
One night after posting a 7-1 road win over the Florida Panthers, the Flyers
were on the wrong end of a 5-1 setback against the Lightning. Martin St. Louis
had four assists and Teddy Purcell added a goal and two assists to lead Tampa
Bay to the rout.
"We can't use that as an excuse," Flyers forward Matt Read said. "Everyone's
playing a lot of games in a short amount of time. When you're playing back to
back, you've got to keep it simple and play smart hockey. We've got to learn

No. 17 Iowa State Storms Back to Beat Iowa, 85-82
AMES, Iowa – Georges Niang's reverse lay-up with 18 seconds left sealed an Iowa State comeback as the No. 17 Cyclones came from 10 points down to defeat the No. 23 Iowa Hawkeyes 85-82 Friday night at Hilton Coliseum. The win keeps Iowa State undefeated at 8-0. The loss drops the Hawkeyes to 10-2.
After struggling from the charity stripe all game, the Cyclones saw Dustin Hogue make two free throws with 13 seconds left to give Iowa State a three-point cushion. Iowa got three shots off, but none of them were able to get in and Iowa State left with the victory.
With the win, Iowa State re-takes the lead in the Iowa Corn Cy-Hawk Series 10-9. The Cyclones had lost the lead when Iowa's women's swimming and diving team defeated Iowa State earlier in the day.
Keys of the Game
The Cyclones will not be thrilled to leave Hilton Coliseum shooting 23-of-36 from the free throw line on the evening. While it was free throw shooting that nearly put Iowa State in the loss column for the first time all season, it was the free throw shooting that helped seal the victory for Iowa State.
After Niang missed a pair of free throws with Iowa ahead 81-77, Iowa saw Adam Woodbury make a free throw to push the score to 82-77 with 1:26 remaining in the game. Woodbury fouled out of the game and sent Niang to the line where he redeemed himself with a pair of free throw makes.
After an Iowa turnover, it was Melvin Ejim's turn to step up to the line and play the clutch role for the Cyclones. Ejim made both of his free throws to reduce the Iowa lead to 82-81. Though Iowa State had time for one last possession, Fred Hoiberg rolled the dice and decided to foul though ISU did not need to. The Iowa State student section stepped up and helped cause Roy Devyn Marble to miss his free throw, which led to Niang's reverse lay-in to give Iowa State the lead for good.
Monte Morris committed a foul on a driving Mike Gesell, but once again the Iowa State crowd proved too much for him to overcome as Gesell missed both of his free throws. Hogue secured his 16th rebound of the game and went to the line and iced the game with two more free throws. Hogue, who had been shooting 61 percent from the line this season, went 5-of-6 from the charity stripe in the victory.

Cyclone Game Ball Goes To...
Georges Niang. During the struggle that was the first half, it was Niang who helped steady the Iowa State ship whenever he could. Niang dominated proceedings for the Cyclones with 16 points in the first 20 minutes.
Niang closed out his career night with the defining moment that Iowa State fans will be talking about for years. His reverse lay-up under the hoop gave Iowa State an 83-82 lead that it would not relinquish.
The sophomore finished the game with a career-high 24 points, his second-straight 20-point game after 22 points in the victory over UNI. Niang shot 8-of-15 from the field and was a cool 8-of-10 from the free throw line. He also posted five assists.

Our commitment to organic agriculture has gotten stronger every year. We're working toward only buying organic coffees, and, in 2010, we were at 77 percent – data for 2011 should be ready very soon. We also recently launched the Save Our Soil campaign to encourage people to become advocates for organic agriculture. So, it is with particular enthusiasm that we welcome back Los Cipreses, which, in addition to being organic, is also in incredibly delicious coffee.In the five years we've worked with Marysabel Caballero and Moises Herrera in Marcala, Honduras, for all of the experiments and the successes we have experienced together, one obstacle has remained: their farm, Dulce Nombre de Jesús (better known as Finca El Puente), is not certified organic. Strong encouragement for organic certification has become a regular feature of our conversations with them.So, we were more than just a little surprised when they told us that they had been managing the highest area of their farm – a parcel called Los Cipreses after the cypress trees that grow on that portion of the farm – organically for the previous three years. Thankfully, an organic coffee cooperative in Marcala made it possible for the pieces to fall into place for Counter Culture to purchase the first-ever certified organic coffee from Dulce Nombre de Jesús last year. And, we're excited to offer it again this year.
Los Cipreses offers vibrant flavors of citrus and peach perfectly balanced by a juicy body. This is clean, sweet Latin American coffee at its best.Thanks,

Averitt continues to expand flatbed operations
February 22, 2011
Freight transportation and logistics services provider Averitt Express said today it is making further inroads into expanding its flatbed operation, which launched at the beginning of 2009, when it rolled out flatbed service in eight markets.
These markets included Birmingham, Ala.; Atlanta, Ga.; Cincinnati, Ohio; Louisville,
Ky.; and Nashville, Tenn. And over the last 22 months, the company said it has doubled its flatbed presence to 16 markets, due in large part to increased customer demand.
New markets in which Averitt is now providing flatbed service include Decatur, Ala.; Bowling Green and Lexington, Ky.; Chattanooga and Knoxville, Tenn.; and Tupelo, Miss, as well as dedicated flatbed service to a single customer in Indianapolis, Ind., and Columbus and Springfield,
"As customer demand has grown, we've added more equipment and doubled our market coverage," an Averitt spokesman told LM. "We will continue to grow strategically in the flatbed arena to meet our customers' needs. In fact, we are already looking at another expansion of our flatbed fleet for 2011 as business levels continue to increase."
Being able to provide multiple services is a key advantage in an increasingly competitive industry like trucking, according to the spokesman, and he added that the expansion of Averitt's flatbed capabilities is an example of how Averitt continues to evolve to add more value to its customers.

Here are some images from Rafael Nadal's story in the latest edition of U.S. Vogue.
The world's top baller, who made safe passage into the Roland Garros second round after defeating Brazil's Marcos Daniel 7-5, 6-4, 6-3, gives us some insight here (though mostly the usual answers) including one of his biggest vulnerabilities:
Being home alone at night makes me a bit nervous. If I'm at home alone I have to sleep on the sofa—I can't face going to bed. I'm there with the TV on and all the lights on. I'm not very brave about anything in life. In tennis, yes. In everything else, not very.
Anyone want to keep him company?

Plans for a bypass around Kinston is causing mixed feelings for residents
The North Carolina Department of Transportation has been working for nearly two decades to construct a 4-lane highway off of US 70 to bypass Kinston. It held a public meeting Tuesday night to explain the project. The purpose is to improve traffic flow, but residents say they're skeptical of the effects the project could have.
"I'm not sure about the need for it. Maybe not a project this scale, maybe something a little less ambitious," said Lenoir County resident Jim Gaddis.
DOT says it's unclear when the project will break ground. There's another year of studies to conduct, and the estimated $200 million project has no funding right now.
The DOT will host another workshop Thursday from 4-7pm at the Kinston High School cafeteria.
