South Carolina House Introduces Bill to Expand Course Options for Public School Students
by MICHAEL MCGRADY, Heartland
A South Carolina bill to expand public school students' access to credit-bearing courses from public schools, colleges, nonprofit organizations, employers, and other course providers was introduced in the House on April 14, 2016. The bill failed to progress to the Senate in time to meet the crossover deadline of May 1 for the current legislative session. State Rep. Todd Atwater (R-Lexington) introduced House Bill 5216, the South Carolina Course Access Act. The bill was referred to the House Committee on Education and Public Works on April 14, 2016, but the state Department of Education opposed the bill in its current form. The Course Access Act is designed to provide students state funding and full class credit for completing state-approved courses which are offered by a number of course providers in a variety of formats.

By Joshua Bolkan, THE Journal
Shipments of virtual reality devices will expand by more than 2,400 percent this year according to a new forecast from International Data Corp. (IDC). Screenless viewers will grab the largest market share, according to the research company, at 74 percent. "Virtual reality (VR) is an increasingly hot topic at technology events, government meetings and consumer entertainment events, injecting a boost of much needed excitement into consumer IT and business applications markets," said Neo Zheng, research manager, client system research, IDC China, in a prepared statement. Areas to watch within the virtual reality ecosystem include components, devices, platforms and content, according to IDC.

Unpacking the Problem of Unmotivated Online Students
By Michelle Pacansky-Brock, EdSurge
Learning online requires students to be more accountable, and online research shows that self-efficacy impacts student success online. But when we focus on lack of student motivation as "the" problem, we oversimplify a more complex and important issue. When online classes are designed to support and encourage learning differences, align technology with pedagogy, and are facilitated by a present, empathetic and aware instructor, we can begin to see them as a tremendous opportunity for the diverse population of students in higher education.

Ed tech investment is down, but what does it mean for colleges?
By Tara García Mathewson, Education Dive
Education technology startups have been flush with cash in recent years, thanks to enthusiastic investors ready to "disrupt" higher education, but 2016 has brought a slowdown to the sector that is sure to impact colleges and universities. The Chronicle of Higher Education reports higher ed leaders can expect fewer free or low-cost trials, as well as pitches from companies offering new, innovative products or services — though career services and learning analytics arenas are still growing. The startups that survive in a shrinking market with disruptive business models may present greater threats to traditional higher education because they will prove their strength, like Udacity, which is now valued at more than $1 billion.

Though it has been a few weeks since the Chattanooga community lost a community leader, civil rights icon, and simply a man of God, for me, I simply lost a friend. I've known of Reverend Edwards all my life; he eulogized three of my aunts and has been connected with my family through my older siblings.
Many know of his tireless work through the Mary Walker Foundation and other organizations. But that's not how I came to know this wise, magnificent man. Long before I answered the call in ministry, I remember speaking for a black history program. And for the most part I was prepared and had all my facts together. I remember closing with an arousing applause. As the congregation proceeded to congratulate me on my message, an old gray-haired man in his eighties, realizing this was my first time speaking, approached me and said young man you did an awesome job. Words any young man wants to hear from an elder. As I began to smile with my chest stuck out he suddenly said to me, "But you said one thing that wasn't exactly correct." He had listened to a 45 minute speech and heard the one thing that was not historically true.
As I accepted the criticism, I recognized his way of correcting me without tearing me down. I suddenly realized that the wisdom I was about to learn from this wise man was far greater than the embarrassment of misquoting history. I can tell you after that day I made sure that every quote that came out of my mouth was historically correct. Yes study and show thyself approved. Do not be responsible for leading anyone astray.
After that day Rev and I saw each other many more times over the years. We always seemed to show up at the same venues. And I was the wiser man for it because I learned how to let him talk, and I simply listened. So many of our young people are missing that wisdom that can only be transferred from listening to one who has come through the struggle, from one who has stood on the battleground and fought for justice. I cherish my moments with Rev because with each visit I gained knowledge that can never be taken away from me.
I can recall him saying, "If my people would just pick up a book, a magazine or any publication and read it. There is so much knowledge between the lines, both good and bad. But if you can't read it you want know the difference."
RIP Rev! Message was received.

AG calls Martin killing an 'unnecessary shooting'AP Photo
Keta Taylor, center, of Birmingham, Ala., joins other demonstrators during a rally and march in support of Trayvon Martin in Birmingham, Ala., on Monday.
WASHINGTON — Attorney General Eric Holder said Monday the killing of Trayvon Martin was a "tragic, unnecessary shooting" and that the 17-year-old's death provides an opportunity for the nation to speak honestly about complicated and emotionally charged issues.
In his first comments since the acquittal of George Zimmerman in the Martin case, the attorney general said that Martin's parents have suffered a pain that no parent should have to endure. He said the nation must not forgo an opportunity toward better understanding of one another.
On Sunday, the Justice Department said it is reviewing evidence in the case to determine whether criminal civil rights charges are warranted.
The Justice Department opened an investigation into Martin's death last year but stepped aside to allow the state prosecution to proceed.
Holder said, "We are ... mindful of the pain felt by our nation surrounding the tragic, unnecessary shooting death of Trayvon Martin in Sanford, Fla., last year."
"I want to assure you that the Justice Department will continue to act in a manner that is consistent with the facts and the law," said Holder.
"Independent of the legal determination that will be made, I believe that this tragedy provides yet another opportunity for our nation to speak honestly about the complicated and emotionally charged issues that this case has raised," Holder said in remarks to the 51st national convention of the Delta Sigma Theta sorority.
"We must not — as we have too often in the past — let this opportunity pass," he said.
The Justice Department says the criminal section of the Justice Department's civil rights division, the FBI and federal prosecutors in Florida are continuing to evaluate the evidence generated during the federal investigation, plus evidence and testimony from the state trial.
The NAACP and others are calling on the Justice Department to open a civil rights case against Zimmerman. Thousands of demonstrators from across the country protested the jury's decision to clear Zimmerman in the shooting death of the unarmed black teenager.
Also on Monday, the White House says President Barack Obama won't involve himself in the Justice Department decision on whether to pursue civil rights charges against Zimmerman. White House spokesman Jay Carney said it would be inappropriate for Obama to express an opinion on how the department deals with Zimmerman.MORE IN Wire NewsDHAKA, Bangladesh As many as nine gunmen attacked a restaurant popular with foreigners in a...

Trish, who attended one of my recent data visualization workshops, submitted a link to the Illinois Atlas of Austerity.
Shown on the right is one of the charts included in the presentation.
This is an example of a chart that fails my self-sufficiency test.
There is no chance that readers are getting any information out of the graphical elements (the figurines of 100 people each).
Everyone who tries to learn something from this chart will be reading the data labels directly.
The entire dataset is printed on the chart itself. If you cover up the data, the chart becomes unreadable!
Here is a simple fix that resettles the figurines onto a bar chart:
Tufte would not be amused by this composition. The figurines are purely decorative.
This version is more likely to delight Tufte:
It is the edges of the bars in the bar chart that make all the difference.
Aside from the visual problems, there is also a data issue. They should have controlled by the size of different programs.
Via Twitter, reader Joe D. asked a few of us to comment on the SparkRadar graphic by WeatherSpark.
At the time of writing, the picture for Baltimore is very pretty:
The picture for New York is not as pretty but still intriguing. We are having a bout of summer and hence the white space (no precipitation):
Interpreting this innovative chart is a tough task - this is a given with any innovative chart. Explaining the chart requires all the text on this page.
The difficulty of interpreting the SparkRadar chart is twofold.
Firstly, the axes are unnatural. Time runs vertically, defying the horizontal convention. Also, "now" - the most recent time depicted - is at the very bottom, which tempts readers to read bottom to top, meaning we are reading time running backwards into the past. In most charts, time run left to right from past to present (at least in the left-right-centric part of the world that I live in.)
Location has been reduced to one dimension. The labels "Distance Inside" and "Distance from Storm" confuse me - perhaps those who follow weather more closely can justify the labels. Conventionally, location is shown in two dimensions.
The second difficulty is created by the inclusion of irrelevant data (aka noise). The square grid prescribes a fixed box inside which all data are depicted. In the New York graphic, something is going on in the top right corner - far away in both time and space - how does it help the reader?
Now, contrast this chart to the more standard one, a map showing rain "clouds" moving through space.
(From Bing search result)
The standard one wins because it matches our intuition better.
Location is shown in two dimensions.
Distance from the city is shown on the map as scaled distance.
Time is shown as motion.
Speed is shown as speed of the motion. (In SparkRadar, speed is shown by the slope of imaginary lines.)
Severity is shown by density and color.
Nonetheless, a panel of the new charts make great data art.
Via Twitter, Bart S (@BartSchuijt) sent me to this TechCrunch article, which contains several uninspiring charts.
The most disturbing one is this:
There is a classic Tufte class here: only five numbers and yet the chart is so confusing. And yes, they reversed the axis. Lower means higher "app abandonment" and higher means lower "app abandonment". The co-existence of the data labels, gridlines, and axis labels increases processing time without adding information.
A simple column chart shows there is almost nothing going on:
I suspect that if they were to break the data down by months and weeks, it would be clear that the fluctuations are meaningless.
The graphical scaffolding, or what Tufte calls the non-data ink, should provide context to help readers understand the data. This is not the case here.
Worse, the context needed to interpret "app abandonment" is sorely missing.
You might argue with me. Isn't it clear from the chart title? And doesn't the subtitle provide the details of how app abandonment is measured? It says "% of users who abandon an app after one use".
That definition is an emperor with no clothes.
The five numbers could not really be percentages of users because every user has many apps. So one may abandon app A after a single use, but one may also have used app B four times, and app C 12 times, etc.
It seems possible that they are counting user-app pairs. This measure is much harder to interpret because every user is represented as many times as he/she has apps. The more apps he/she has, the more times he/she is represented in the data.
And be careful, we are not counting all apps either. For the definition to make sense, we should be counting only apps that are downloaded in the given year. This means that lurking behind the time series is the proportion of "new" apps and how this evolved over time. It is also murky what "new" means. I am aware that many app developers keep forcing users to download upgraded apps - sometimes, I think these are counted when developers publish app download statistics. Obviously, someone who upgrades an app is likely to be an active user. So whether upgrades or later versions of the same app are counted or not is another question.
Finally, what constitutes a "use"?
From a Trifecta perspective, this is a Type DV chart. There are obvious visual flaws but the real issue is the missing context related to how the metric is defined.
My summer course on analytical methods is already at the midway point. I was doing some research on recommendation systems the other day, and came across the following chart:
Ouch. This is from the Park, et. al. (2012) survey of research papers on this subject. It's the 21st century, people. The column chart copies the older-generation Excel design made infamous by Tufte, and since abandoned. Looking more closely, I suspect that the chart was hand-crafted, not made in Excel.
There are several challenges of reading this chart.
The gaps between columns are narrower than the columns. Only in the last two years do the eight categories all count. So a key task is to learn which column stands for which type of application. Having one's eyes flip back and forth between the columns and the legend below the chart is a big hassle. As readers, we tend to learn a short cut, which is to memorize the order of the categories (first column is book, second column is document, etc.). The incorrect width of zero-valued columns thwarts this simple strategy.
The designer creates another obstacle by sorting the categories alphabetically. Shopping and movies are two of the most important applications and that message is buried.
The key to cleaning up this graphic is to bring the visual design closer to the question being addressed. The question of the chart is how interest in various applications has changed over time.
Here is a small-multiples presentation of the same data:
The answer is that applications are getting more diversified (the rise of the Other), and that Documents, Shopping and Movie applications were growing while research on Image, Music, TV Program and Book stagnated during the study period.

Understanding Your Voter's Guide
By Editorial Staff
Published May 2, 2008
Seven Republican presidential candidates were surveyed on the above topics for the national Christian Coalition's voter's guide. We should note that two additional candidates, Morry Taylor and Robert Dornan did not appear on the national Christian Coalition's voter guide. We should also note that Phil Gramm recently announced that he has dropped out of the race.
The abortion question might seem confusing at first glance. It would appear that all the candidates, with the exception of Forbes, have some type of "pro-life" view. But legislation records in the House, Senate and Governor's seat reveal some sharp differences. Lamar Alexander showed support for the "pro-abortion" position while governor of Tennessee. Dick Lugar's record has shown that he is, in fact, pro-abortion, while he wants to be characterized as pro-life in the survey. Bob Dole has flip-flopped on this issue over the years. Recently, he voted for the nomination of Ruth Bader-Ginsburg, a pro-abortion Supreme Court Justice, and also supported F.A.C.E. (Freedom of Access to Clinic Entrances) which makes peaceful blockades of abortion clinics by pro-lifers a federal felony. Phil Gramm has a good pro-life voting record (although he did support Ginsburg). Bob Dornan's record is even more solid on the pro-life issue (being the only congressional candidate to have endorsed pro-life activism). Bob Dornan, Alan Keyes and Pat Buchanan have made the abortion issue a front piece of their campaigns, while the others have taken a more moderate approach. The others seem to want to distance themselves from the abortion issue, while appearing to be pro-life in the eyes of Christian conservatives.
Alan Keyes appears enigmatic on two issues. Keyes indicated that he would support a flat tax only as an intermediary step to a national sales tax. Keyes is in favor of doing away with the income tax entirely. On the subject of internet pornography, Keyes stated, "I don't believe that government censorship is the answer. I think that we should develop and use the technology that will allow parents and other responsible people to regulate access for those who are minors. I think the v-chip for TVs is good for those who want it, but should not be mandated by government for all sets."

Why Creeds and Confessions? (Book)
High Quality Paperback — 219 pages
Foundations in Biblical Orthodoxy
Driving down a country road sometime, you might see a church with a sign proudly proclaiming: "No book but the Bible — No creed but Christ." The problem with this statement is that the word creed (from the Latin: credo) simply means "belief." All Christians have beliefs, regardless of whether they are written.
Yet a single book containing the actual texts of the most important creeds of the early Church will not often be found. Out of the multitude of works on the evangelical Christian book market today, those dealing with the creeds of the Church are scarce.
Why Creeds and Confessions? provides a foundation of biblical orthodoxy as a defense against the false and truly heretical doctrines advanced by the spirit of this age.

The Abortion Matrix: Defeating Child Sacrifice and the Culture of Death (DVD)
Download the free Study Guide!
Is there a connection between pagan religion and the abortion industry?
This powerful presentation traces the biblical roots of child sacrifice and then delves into the social, political and cultural fall-out that this sin against God and crime against humanity has produced in our beleaguered society.
Conceived as a sequel and update to the 1988 classic, The Massacre of Innocence, the new title, The Abortion Matrix, is entirely fitting. It not only references abortion's specific target – the sacred matrix where human beings are formed in the womb in the very image of God, but it also implies the existence of a conspiracy, a matrix of seemingly disparate forces that are driving this holocaust.
The occult activity surrounding the abortion industry is exposed with numerous examples. But are these just aberrations, bizarre yet anomalous examples of abortionists who just happen to have ties to modern day witchcraft? Or is this representative of something deeper, more sinister and even endemic to the entire abortion movement?
As the allusion to the film of over a decade ago suggests, the viewer may learn that things are not always as they appear to be. The Abortion Matrix reveals the reality of child-killing and strikes the proper moral chord to move hearts to fulfill the biblical responsibility to rescue those unjustly sentenced to death and to speak for those who cannot speak for themselves (Proverbs 24:11,12; 31:8,9).
Speakers include: George Grant, Peter Hammond, RC Sproul Jr., Paul Jehle, Lou Engle, Rusty Thomas, Flip Benham, Janet Porter and many more.

The Four Keys to the Millennium (Book)
Foundations in Biblical Eschatology
By Jay Rogers, Larry Waugh, Rodney Stortz, Joseph Meiring. High quality paperback, 167 pages.
All Christians believe that their great God and Savior, Jesus Christ, will one day return. Although we cannot know the exact time of His return, what exactly did Jesus mean when he spoke of the signs of His coming (Mat. 24)? How are we to interpret the prophecies in Isaiah regarding the time when "the earth will be full of the knowledge of the LORD as the waters cover the sea" (Isa. 11:19)? Should we expect a time of great tribulation and apostasy or revival and reformation before the Lord returns? Is the devil bound now, and are the saints reigning with Christ? Did you know that there are four hermeneutical approaches to the book of Daniel and Revelation?
These and many more questions are dealt with by four authors as they present the four views on the millennium. Each view is then critiqued by the other three authors.

Revival, Resistance, Reformation, Revolution
An Introduction to the Doctrines of Interposition and Nullification
In 1776, a short time after the Declaration of Independence was adopted, Thomas Jefferson, John Adams and Benjamin Franklin were assigned to design an official seal for the United States of America. Their proposed motto was Rebellion to Tyrants is Obedience to God. America owes its existence to centuries of Christian political philosophy. Our nation provided a model for liberty copied by nations the world over.
By the 21st century, we need a "Puritan Storm" to sweep away the Hegelian notion that the state is "God walking on earth." We need revival and reformation in full force to vanquish the problems that plague us as a nation — from government controlled healthcare — to abortion on demand — to same sex "marriage." This booklet gives a primer on our founders' Christian idea of government and examines how the doctrine of nullification was woven into the Constitution as a safeguard against federal tyranny. It concludes with the history and theology of civil resistance. A Second American Revolution is coming with the Word of God growing mightily and prevailing! (Acts 19:20).

Environment Southland chairwoman on leave
Relevant offers
Shamed Environment Southland chairwoman Ali Timms has taken six weeks paid leave, effective immediately, but four regional councillors believe she should have stood down.
Ms Timms applied for the leave after being outed for making a hoax phone call to talkback television last week. She harangued Invercargill Mayor Tim Shadbolt about the council's funding of the Auckland to Bluff yacht race for nearly 10 minutes on the Cue television programme, while pretending to be a struggling mother of two called Ruby whose partner had been laid off at Tiwai.
Environment Southland councillors discussed her actions in a closed-doors meeting yesterday, with acting Environment Southland chairman Nicol Horrell later issuing a statement saying they had unanimously expressed their extreme disapproval of her "unacceptable lack of judgment".
The council is expected to hold a meeting in late January "to consider the council's chairmanship".
Cr Jan Riddell said a motion was formed at yesterday's meeting saying Ms Timms would take six weeks leave of absence; but four councillors, including herself, voted against the motion. They believed she should have stood down.
Ms Timms was given the opportunity to step down during the meeting but indicated that she would not be doing so, Cr Riddell said.
"It was up to her to make the call and she favoured the six-week option."
Since the meeting Cr Riddell said she had received feedback from other people about Ms Timms' actions.
"They are all saying the same thing. She should have stepped down," she said.
Cr Robert Guyton said he was appalled at Ms Timms' actions and he was one of those who believed she should have stepped down as the chair of Environment Southland.
Cr Rowly Currie said it would have been in the best interests of Environment Southland if Ms Timms had stood down.
Cr Brian Mason said Ms Timms' actions were totally unacceptable.
Cr Ross Cockburn said he wanted more time to think about the issue. He was to discuss it further with Ms Timms at a Christmas party she hosted for Environment Southland senior staff and councillors at her home last night, he said.
Cr Horrell said the public-excluded discussion about Cr Timms using a false name to call the talkback show was a lengthly session, lasting about two hours.
Ms Timms was present during the discussion and had apologised to every councillor for her actions, he said.
He would not say what Ms Timms said at the meeting.
It was Ms Timms' idea to apply for the six weeks leave of absence and Cr Horrell declined to say if the council would be voting for her to step down in January.
The timeframe coincided with her leave and would give the full council time to reflect on the issue of leadership, he said.
Mr Shadbolt - when asked if he was pleased that Ms Timms had taken six weeks' leave pending a regional council meeting in January to decide her future - said he was not.
"I don't think anyone will feel pleased. It's part of the whole tragedy of it, really, and it's not a particularly good reflection on local government at all, so I don't think anyone will be pleased."
The fact that Ms Timms had taken leave indicated how seriously all parties, including Ms Timms, were taking the matter, he said.
Ms Timms did not return calls yesterday.

NRA seeks to block gun magazine ban
WASHINGTON - The National Rifle Association is asking Supreme Court Justice Anthony Kennedy to block enforcement of a California city ordinance that bans gun magazines capable of holding more than 10 bullets.
The ban in Sunnyvale went into effect Thursday after 66 percent of voters approved it in November. The NRA challenged the law, but a federal judge ruled last week that it does not violate the Second Amendment right to own guns for self-defense.
The 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals in San Francisco denied the NRA's request for an emergency order to stop the ban from taking effect pending appeal.
The new ordinance allows gun owners to have police destroy the magazines, sell them out of state or to a licensed gun dealer, or move them out of town.

La. Police Ask Judge to Uphold Suspension of Officer Who Took Extra-Duty Pay
WBRZ News (Louisiana)
The Baton Rouge Police Department wants a judge to uphold the punishment of an officer the department claims took extra-duty pay while conducting traffic stops.
A petition made public Wednesday asks a state district judge to reverse a decision by the Municipal Fire and Police Civil Service Board overturning Timothy Johnson's two-week suspension.
Johnson, 38, was suspended in 2001 after an investigation showed he billed several apartment complexes for working extra-duty security while making traffic stops for the Police Department.
The Civil Service Board deadlocked on the decision in November, but earlier this month overturned the suspension and instead gave Johnson a letter of reprimand.
The Police Department's petition claims that decision "was not made in good faith" and "was contrary to the evidence produced at the hearing."
Johnson is a uniformed patrol officer at the Third District police station on Coursey Boulevard. He did not return a call to the station Wednesday.

Accustomed to change, Journal Sentinel will adjust to merger
A copy of The Milwaukee Journal no doubt was lying on our coffee table the day I came home from the hospital as a newborn.
From age 12 to 16, I delivered the Journal on the city's northwest side, finishing each day with news of Milwaukee and the world smeared black on my fingers.
For a brief time around age 20, I worked on the loading dock and drove a truck for the Journal. A few years later, I was back here as a news-gathering intern for a semester while attending the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee.
And in 1987, the Journal hired me as a reporter. The newsroom put together a photo yearbook at that time, and of the 229 people who wrote and edited your news, just 14 of us are left (plus newer hires, of course, and the remaining Sentinel folks we merged with in 1995).
So, yeah, it came as a shock last week when Journal Communications and E.W. Scripps announced a merger, sending my newspaper one way and the Journal's TV and radio stations another way. It's a fitting sign of the times that I found out about it on Facebook.
For years and years, the Journal company was Milwaukee's friendly monopoly, and we employees owned it. We had you covered for print, broadcast and eventually digital news. The Journal long has been a name you could trust, even if you sometimes thought the newspaper was too liberal, too conservative or never should have gotten rid of the Green Sheet.
Here's my confession: I think I was almost 30 before I figured out that WTMJ stood for The Milwaukee Journal. Well, duh!
I hope the WTMJ radio and TV operations in this city plan to keep those proud call letters, even though they're becoming part of the Scripps broadcast empire headquartered in Cincinnati. I'll miss my airwaves brothers and sisters. Maybe we'll get visitation rights.
Meanwhile, the Journal Sentinel will be the flagship in a chain of 14 newspapers nationwide, but as part of a new public company, Journal Media Group, headquartered in Milwaukee.
At least for now, we'll remain in our handsome old building at 4th and State. But after many rounds of staff downsizing and our printing presses out in West Milwaukee now, we're like empty nesters down here with rooms we're closing off and empty places at the dinner table, or Journal cafeteria in our case.
Shed or spun off. Those are the terms used to describe how the print side is being cut loose like a troublesome stepchild so we don't weigh down the more lucrative broadcast biz.
We're doing our best, you know, with award-winning journalism and all the news that fits in the paper, website, your pad, your smartphone and infused directly into your DNA, if that's the next big platform we all want.
Ad revenue has sagged, but we get up early every day to fix that, right after we check our Twitter feeds and Gawker headlines, including this irresistible scoop from Tuesday: "Man mauled by bear says he's only alive thanks to Justin Bieber."
It's going to feel strange for the Journal Sentinel to be part of a newspaper chain, and alarm bells sound when the bosses talk about possible "cost synergies" and "streamlined operational plans" needed to make a go of it. But it's not just our industry. Ask the 600 slaughterhouse workers suddenly cut loose at Cargill in Milwaukee last week because cows are in short supply.
Change is a constant, and the big one here at Journal Communications feels like the right move at the right time, with the deal to be sealed in 2015. Scripps is a solid company, and the executive they're sending here to lead Journal Media Group, Timothy Stautberg, pleasantly surprised us last week when he showed up at the Journal Sentinel and sat down to lunch at a cafeteria table with other journalists and me.
I'm not afraid of the future. Compared with the new "Sharknado" movie where people are attacked on dry land by windblown sharks, this is nothing.

Swede girls stick with Red Raiders
Loss drops Gothenburg to 2-6
SIDNEY—Had it not been for a struggle to score in the third period, the Gothenburg girls may have celebrated a first-round victory in their inaugural appearance at the Cabela's Holiday Shootout last week.
As it was though, a two-point halftime lead disappeared and the Swedes spent most of the second half just keeping up as the Red Raiders earned a 46-43 win.
Gothenburg trailed 8-6 at the end of the first quarter but came back to carry a 21-19 advantage into the halftime break.
Sidney rallied in the third period to regain the lead and the Red Raiders held on for the win.
Three Swedes scored in double figures. Brittyn Munster led the way with 14 points including a pair of three-pointers and a perfect 4-for-4 from the line.
She also pulled down seven rebounds.
Jacey Wiggins added 11 points while Taylor Wolf pitched in 10.
For the Red Raiders, Karissa Segelke had a game-high 21 points, including eight in the fourth period.
The Raiders advanced to play Cheyenne South in the semi-finals while Gothenburg faced Love Christian Fellowship High School of Denver, CO, in the consolation semi-finals on Friday.
Results of the Friday and Saturday games from the tournament were too late for the early holiday deadline of The Times.
Full results will be printed in next week's edition.

CHERIE DECASTRO, the last remaining member of 1950s sibling act the DECASTRO SISTERS, has died at a hospital in Las Vegas.
The 87-year-old and her sisters, Peggy and Babette, became Hollywood singing sensations after making a name for themselves in their native Cuba, where they were a popular club act.
The trio found success on the Las Vegas stage and scored a big hit in 1954 with Teach Me Tonight.
Other favourites included Babalu.
Cherie DeCastro was the middle sister of the trio.
Darth Vader is back and James Earl Jones will once again provide the villain's voice.

Financial Results
Clothing retailer Hallenstein Glasson saw full year net profit leap 15 per cent as all chains in the group performed well and increased market share.
That was despite an economic environment that chief executive Graeme Popplewell described as "anything but helpful to retail" with delayed fallout from the global financial crisis taking place in the Australian retail market.
Hallenstein Glassons reported net profit after tax of $21 million for the year to August 1, 2012, an increase of 14.97 per cent on the previous year's $18.3m.
Total sales increased 4.91 per cent to reach $215.6m from $205.5m the previous year.
The stock rose 10 cents or 2.17 per cent on the news to trade at $4.71 a share.
The company reported its Glassons New Zealand net profit increased 5.4 per cent, as refurbishment of stores translated into improved sales, while Glassons Australia sales increased 9 per cent, turning a 2011 net loss into a "modest return" in 2012.
Second half profit grew 48 per cent on new store openings and improved distribution.
Popplewell said the Australian business was beginning to show positive returns and further stores would be added as sites became available in selected locations.
Hallensteins net profit after tax soared 17.7 per cent.
"The repositioning of Hallensteins to a more youthful fashionable brand has earned positive results and over the next year we will begin investing in store refurbishments that will underpin the strength of this brand," Popplewell said.
Storm net profit surged 46.7 per cent, with same store sales growing 8 per cent.
Web-based sales were now at a level where they now represented a key store for each brand, Popplewell said.
He said however that while the company was off to a good start for the new financial year with sales growing 7 per cent in the first seven weeks, there was little to suggest a material improvement in the trading environment and consumers remained cautious.
A final dividend of 19c per share will be paid on December 7, bringing the total dividend paid for the year to 33.5c compared with 31c a share last year.
