Football: Day Three in Mobile
Ball State's football team continued preparations for Sunday's GoDaddy Bowl in Mobile, Ala., with a visit to a juvenile detention center, practice and a trip for the seniors to the University of South Alabama Women's and Children's Hospital.
The day capped off with an evening bowling competition against Sunday's opponent, the Arkansas State Red Wolves.

Men's Hoops Signs Two Indiana High School Standouts
MUNCIE, Ind. -- The Ball State men's basketball program has added a pair of Indiana high school standouts during the NCAA's early signing period, which opened Wednesday.
Zavier Turner of Pike High School in Indianapolis and Franko House of Concord High School in Elkhart signed National Letters of Intent to attend Ball State and compete for the Cardinals. Both players are rated among the top 15 recruits in the state this year by Indiana Recruiting Guide.
"We are really excited to welcome Zavier and Franko to our Ball State basketball program," Cardinals head coach Billy Taylor said. "They are both terrific young men who come from very well respected high school programs."
Turner, a 5-foot-9, 170-pound point guard, is entering his senior season at Pike for coach Bill Zych. He averaged 15.0 points and 6.2 assists per game as a junior, helping the Red Devils to their first regional title in nine years and a trip to the Class 4A state championship game.
Turner took over the point guard reigns at Pike from Marquis Teague, who played one season at Kentucky and then was drafted by the Chicago Bulls. He averaged 14.0 points per game as a sophomore and helped the Red Devils to a sectional crown. Turner also played for one of the top AAU programs in the country with the Eric Gordon All-Stars.
"Zavier is a true point guard who has the ability to get in the paint and create opportunities for others, Taylor said. "He has also proved to be a big-game player as evidenced by Pike's success last year in the Indiana high school state tournament."
House, a 6-foot-6, 245-pound forward, is entering his senior season at Concord for coach Steve Austin. He has started for the Minutemen since his freshman season and has been selected to the Elkhart Truth All-Area First Team each of the past two years.
House led Concord with averages of 14.7 points, 7.8 rebounds and 2.5 assists per game as a junior last season. He scored 15.0 points per game as a sophomore for Concord's sectional championship team. House, who played for the Indiana Elite AAU program, was also widely recruited in football. He excelled as a tight end and defensive end for Concord.
"Franko is a powerful and athletic frontcourt player," Taylor said. "He has shown a wide range of basketball skills on the perimeter and in the low post. Franko also has a very physical body that will allow him to rebound the basketball at a high level."
Turner and House will join the Ball State program for the 2013-14 season.

The U.S. government, particularly Congress, has grown increasingly upset about
the image the U.S. is projecting by shipping its tech trash overseas. Now
they are looking to act with new e-waste legislation on the table. U.S.
Rep. Gene Green (D-Texas), the chairman of the House Subcommittee on
Environment and Hazardous Materials, last week introduced legislation which
would ban the export
of toxic e-waste to developing nations. Analysts predict the
legislation might have enough support to pass by next year.
Part of the reason for the rise in concern, analysts say is the eyesore of a
problem is getting harder to ignore. With Americans owning roughly 3
billion gadgets, including desktops, laptops, cell phones, and PDAs, there is a
tremendous amount of tech trash generated each year. In 1998, 20 million
computers were estimated to be disposed of annually. In 2005, despite
increased recycling rates the estimate was up to 37 million.
While the overall waste only accounts for a small percentage of the total
trash, it is growing. And with 2.25 million tons in the last two years
and only 18 percent being recycled, the problem is becoming more and more
According to advocates, when this waste is shipped overseas and broken down by
impoverished locals, mercury, lead, and brominated flame retardants are
frequently reduced. Locals often work with no gloves and face heavy
exposure to these chemicals that have been shown to have a wide array of health
Another emerging crisis is the switch to digital TV. With the signals
fully switching in February 2009, it is predicted that 32 million digital
televisions will bought, meaning millions of old models will likely be
trashed. These old models will likely cause a massive surge in tech trash
for the year. Older CRT (cathode ray tube) models frequently have as much
as four pounds of lead a piece.
Barbara Kyle, national coordinator for the nonprofit Electronics TakeBack
Coalition warns people that "recycling" efforts may not be all they're
cracked up to be. Many recycling initiatives collect massive amounts of
tech waste and then ship it overseas and then pocket the small profit.
Ms. Kyle insists that only if companies themselves adopt national take back
programs will the practice be suitable for regulation and the misbehavior able
to be stopped. Of all the manufacturers of TVs, until recently, only Sony
was progressive enough to adopt such policies, she said. Sony offers a
free take back program at its affiliated retailers. In a Congressional
report Sony stated that it was perhaps the only tech company to ban "the
exportation of hazardous waste to developing countries."
Now LG Electronics has decided to side with Sony and is launching its own free
recycling initiative. By September, LG promises to have one recycling
center per state. Some states and government entities such as the
surprisingly green state of Texas have recycling
programs of their own that are manufacturer neutral. These programs
have been a major factor in upping recycling rates from 15 percent in 1999 to
18 percent in 2005, according to the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).
International environmental group Greenpeace, known for some of its more
controversial stances, has decided to tackle this slightly less radical
issue. It released a major report on the flow of tech trash to the West
African country of Ghana, one of the major destinations after China and
India. The report details the toxic exposure citizens of the country face
in their search for aluminum and copper to resell. It also points out
possible environmental damage due to improper disposal.
Greenpeace is trying to convince the world's two largest electronics
manufacturers -- Philips and Sharp -- to phase
out toxic materials in their electronics and to fully adopt recycling programs.
Still, private and advocate efforts are not enough, according to many members
of Congress. They feel even the EPA, the government agency tasked with
dealing with such issues, has disappointed with its inaction. Rep. Green
states, "If the EPA cannot or will not act to halt the toxic e-waste trade
to developing nations, then Congress should take action."
quote: Anyone who pretends that dismantling a cell phone in India is going to "disrupt the enviroment" especially here in the US should be locked away in a padded cell.
quote: People seem to forget that the small amounts of mercury and lead found in electronics originally came out of the ground in the first place.
quote: The "lead belt" in Southern Missouri has lead deposits containing several hundred million tons of lead, many of which reach to the surface and have surface water or groundwater flowing regularly over them. The environment doesn't seem to be "dirupted" there; in fact, its one of the more ecologically rich areas in the US.
quote: But is misuse like that such a severe problem as to warrant an international ban on all shipments of electronic waste to foreign countries? It's lunacy to even propose such draconian measures.
quote: We ingest arsenic each and every day
quote: I agree utterly. And what's better for a human in a nation like Ghana or India-- an easy, well-paying job that allows them to purchase nutritious food, reasonable shelter, and basic medical care, at a very small risk to their long-term health...or to have them starving on the streets, begging for food?
quote: If recycling is so profitable, why not recycle it here and keep the profit in the States?
quote: Umm as you pointed out not to long ago, the people in these regions are largely being exploited by local warlords. This money isn't going to them but to the local warchief. This will have little impact on their standard of living, except for exposing them to toxins daily. quote: Nonsense. Those exploited workers earn wages far in excess of what they would ever earn tilling in a farmers field, even if it's peanuts by our standards. What you call exploitation I call the seeds of a future middle class. quote: except for exposing them to toxins daily. Ask a person with no access to health care and a life expectancy of 35 if he is worried that exposure to these toxins might cause him to get cancer when he turns 50 and he'll tell you you're a moron.

Prince George's Nanny Makes First Appearance
With her hair being blown in the chilly wind of the harbor-side airport, nanny Maria Teresa Turrion Borrallo, 43, took in the scene along with about 100 members of the world's media.
Borrallo had left the royal family's jet slightly ahead of the smiling and waving Prince William, slightly ahead of the smiling and waving Kate and George, and was positioned, with Kate's right-hand woman Rebecca Deacon, towards the tail of the plane to see the welcome.
She then followed the couple and their entourage into the terminal building a short walk away. Her first job on foreign soil for the couple would come only half an hour later when she looked after the little prince while his parents were given a Maori welcome at Government House.

Season 3 of Downton Abbey won't air in the U.S. until Jan. 6, but Britain's ITV is already promoting the return of the hit costume drama.
In the first of two 20-second clips, the Granthams are discussing the arrival of Lady Cora's mother Martha Levinson, played by Shirley MacLaine, from America.
"I'm so looking forward to seeing your mother again," says Lady Crawley, Dowager Countess of Grantham, played by Maggie Smith. "When I'm with her I'm reminded of the virtues of the English."
"Isn't she American?" asks Matthew Crawley, played by Dan Stevens.
"Exactly," quips Smith.
And in another clip (which asks "Will the Dowager Countess finally meet her match?"), we get to see Smith and MacLaine in one of their first encounters.
"You Americans never understand the importance of tradition," Smith tells her rival.
MacLaine, in her '20s-era finest, responds: "Yes we do. We just don't give it power over us. Maybe you should think about letting go of its hand."
And with that – Smith storms out.
"Amazing day on Downton Abbey set. I love the British humor and temperament and functionality," MacLaine Tweeted from the set in February. "Maggie so subtle and so much fun!"

Wednesday, January 30, 2013
About three weeks ago I wrote an article in response to the news report that the Pastor who was slated to give the benediction at the President's inaugural had withdrawn because a sermon he preached 15 years ago in which he condemned homosexual behavior as wrong surfaced on the web.
In that article I cautioned our young people who use the web to say anything, and show almost anything to be careful because in this technological age everything and anything you do could be held against you. I explained that what their parents did while growing up was localized to the few people and place where they were at the time.
Now in the age of technology what you put on the web lives on almost forever. It has a life of its own even after you have matured, changed your ways, married, had children and become a respectable adult.
I was not surprised therefore to discover in the news that a California school teacher was fired and later a panel of judges ruled upon her appeal that she was unfit to teach in the middle school or any school in the district because she starred in a pornographic movies for an eight-month period before becoming a science teacher at the middle school. They found her behavior incompatible with being the role model she is supposed to be as a teacher.
One judge said that her past matters in an age where technology makes porn easy to access and hard to bury. An assistant principal said her effectiveness in the classroom had been compromised.
It might be of interest to some parents and others to know that it was students who accessed the porn and brought it to the attention of the teachers … and these were middle school children. Some people were wondering what middle school children were doing watching porn, but that is a topic for another time.
This is an opportunity for teachers and parents to warn their children, teenagers and young adults of the potential damage they could do to themselves later when they are more grown, more morally responsible and more protective and concerned about their reputation than they are now. Many of our young people feel comfortable doing questionable things as long as their parents don't find out.
Many of the parents probably won't know now, but that hardly matters because the information they share is available to the world.
Something a friend has on his or her cell phone, a compromising picture, damaging words, illegal or inappropriate behavior, or confessions that are now secret can potentially hurt you down the road. All it takes is a simple download. Things parents never dreamed that their "innocent" girl or boy did, suddenly becomes public and not just the perpetrator but family and friends are hurt.
Being careful not to do anything that could later bring you hurt is one way to approach this; but living according to the moral values that you were taught is even a better approach. We all make mistakes, but unfortunately some mistakes can cost us.
If this teacher who lost her job is telling the truth that she hit hard times and starring in a porn movie was the best way she could provide for herself and her son I feel sorry for her. But moral choices we make have consequences we have to live with; although she has made an effort to turn her life around, thanks to technology it won't be easy. She will be excluded from a number of jobs even if she became a professing Christian tomorrow morning.

Thanks, but no thanks.
When I was building frames out of Bontrager leftovers it was mainly to use stuff that would have been destined for the scrap heap and also provide some industry folks with really cheap handbuilt steel frames. The word go out and all sorts of requests came in , all the while I'm supposedly building Rock Lobsters at twice the price.It was an odd time- filling orders for both frames and for awhile thinking that it was a pretty good thing....that was until I started getting low on the easy to work with materials in the Bontrager heap and had to dig through the boxes to find the tubes that weren't too bent, rusted , had holes drilled off center or cut too short. At this point I felt that the time I was spending looking through this pile of old , rusty metal was a total time toilet-especially in view of how little I was charging for these 'Nontrager' frames.
I started getting odd requests: " Hey, could you make a Nontrager disc-brake MTB for a 120 mm shock with Breezer dropouts?" -Of course not....Bontragers came with proprietary dropouts and never were made for 120 mm shocks or disc brakes. I got request for all sorts of Bastard-trager monstrosities , none of which I agreed to build. Funny though- none of the folks wanting these oddball frames were asking me to build a Rock Lobster, the bike that I normally build and could have easily made to their specifications.
After building over 100 of the Nontrager frames I got the idea that a lot of the folks buying them were not willing to pay for what I normally built. Naturally, I started to get a bit tired fulfilling these Bontrager devotees wishes and decided to make a clean break from the rusty scrap heap and get back to what I really had been devoted to all along.....my bikes.I gave away the remaining tubes to another builder , keeping only a small stash for myself.
Fast forward to this week: I got a request to repair a Bontrager CX frame with a cracked chainstay. I agreed to fix it and started to look through my last remaining few tubes from the original stash. What I found was a small pile of totally rusty garbage, not suited for building or repairing anything. I luckily had a chanstay from the stash in another tube shelf in my shop that was exactly what I needed and fixed the frame. The customer was really happy and seemed to be a super good guy. Even though I had done a decent job, saved the frame and made somebody happy, I still felt a bit worn down....then it came-an email with a similar request about a Bontrager frame with a cracked stay. I emailed the person back and said I would look though my tubing to see if I had the tube to complete the repair. I got an email reply asking if I had enough tubes to make a complete frame......not one of mine but another Bontrager. I said no and wrote sarcastically that I had been known to build frames under another brand name-Rock Lobster.
This gets to my point. I am really tired of people asking me to build Bontragers, Nontragers.....any tragers. I'll admit-Keith is definitely a legend in the bike world and for better or worse, I am not. What I am is someone who has devoted a really big part of my life trying to constantly improve my bikes....Rock Lobsters-have you heard of them ? Yes......I'm pissed, and why shouldn't I be ? Imagine people emailing Keith Bontrager asking him to build Rock Lobsters ? Or calling up Bruce Gordon and asking him to build a Vanilla ? Or emailing Colnago asking them to make a frigging Bob Jackson ? I know that the requests I got for Nontragers have come from good meaning folks for the most part.....real fans of bikes they can no longer get from the original source. It's the reason wax museums exist-also why some people insist that Jim Morrison is still alive and that Elvis is hiding somewhere drinking a milkshake , alive and well.
My advice to well meaning folks looking for their Bontrager fix : Craigslist......ebay......yard sales....flea markets.......just not me ! Want a Rock Lobster ? -I can help you there, just as I have been doing since 1978.

Put that whole pile of rustcicles for sale on fleabay and see what it's worth - maybe it's time for a new builder to take that torch, or maybe it would all build a swell grape arbor!ReplyDelete

I know (sort of) how you feel. I get plenty of requests to basically build copies of other people's bikes. Mostly Speedvagens, but occasionally stuff like Wolfhounds, Retrotecs and even a Coconino or Vulture. Probably because I'm a new builder and since I don't have a name yet they figure they can get it cheaper and sooner than the real thing. Piss on 'em! Rock Lobsters are cool as hell, and that's what you build.ReplyDelete
You've made the right decision. But that picture makes me feel strange... lot's of memories rusting away right there.
Word on the street is that Tommy Clark still has a huge pile of non-rusting stuff from the old factory....I have not seen it with my own eyes, though.....ReplyDelete
Huh, maybe I'll have to give Tommy a call. I spoke with him a few years ago, but never thought to ask about old Bontrager memorabilia. Do you have any contact info for him?ReplyDelete

SPARTANBURG, S.C. – The Stetson men's tennis team opened up Atlantic Sun Conference play with a 4-3 road win over USC Upstate on Friday afternoon.
"Everyone understands the importance and significance of a conference match and I am proud of the guys for getting a win in this first one on the road," Stetson associate head coach Christophe Noblet said.
The Hatters and the Spartans battled in doubles action with each match coming down to a tie-break. Sophomores Cahit Kapukiran and Egor Panyushkin won 8-7 (5) at number three, before Upstate won 8-7 (5) at number two to tie things up. Junior Nathan Debut and senior Hans Adrian Riseng then earned Stetson the first point with an 8-7 (5) win at number one doubles.
"The doubles was extremely intense and the point really could have gone either way," Noblet said. "Ultimately, I think our team chemistry made the difference in the end."
Debut added to the Hatters' lead with a 6-2, 6-1 win at number one singles. The Spartans countered with a 6-4, 7-6 (4) win at number two to make it 2-1 in favor of the Hatters.
After Panyushkin won 6-2, 3-6, 6-1 at number six, Upstate again kept things close with a 6-4, 6-2 triumph at the number four position.
Hatter freshman Graham Ball clinched the victory in Friday's A-Sun opener with a 4-6, 6-3, 6-3 win at number five against Yvon Haessig. The Spartans won on court three to make the final score 4-3.
Stetson will continue conference action on Saturday, taking on defending A-Sun champion ETSU in Johnson City.
"ETSU is always to tough team to play, especially on the road," Noblet said. "Our primary focus will be on doubles and the intensity we need to bring right from the get-go."

The Palmetto Christian Lady Eagles captured the SCISA Class AA Region II tournament championship Tuesday with a 32-21 win over Thomas Sumter Academy at Dorchester Academy.
Third time was a charm for the Lady Eagles who avenged two regular season losses to Thomas Sumter. After allowing 48 points in both of the first two meetings, Palmetto Christian allowed just 21 points Tuesday, Thomas Sumters second-fewest points scored this season.
Corey Caulder scored 19 points with five rebounds, Lizzie Wilson added eight points, and Annie Pascutti grabbed nine rebounds for the Lady Eagles.
After building a five-point lead through the first half, Palmetto Christian limited Thomas Sumter to just two points in the third quarter to break open a 12-point lead headed into the fourth. Caulder was named tournament MVP, Region II Player of the Year, All-Region and All-Tournament. Wilson was also named to the All-Tournament team, while Pascutti earned an All-Region selection.
Palmetto Christian (15-13, 7-3) earns a No. 5 seed in the SCISA Class AA playoffs and will face No. 4 seeded Pee Dee Academy Friday at Wilson Hall.
PCA boys take second
Palmetto Christian almost pulled off a tournament championship sweep as the boys came within a final shot of knocking off Dorchester Academy.
Trailing 45-44 in the closing seconds, Palmetto Christians final shot attempt just missed. Its the first game Palmetto Christian has lost to a Region II opponent this season.
J.T. Waters led all scorers with 16 points, five rebounds, four assist and three steals for Palmetto Christian. Joe Siegwald added 10 points, five rebounds, two steals, and Will Tuchfarber scored seven points with five rebounds.
Palmetto Christian held a five-point lead at halftime but was outscored 24-18 in the second half. J.T. Waters and Joe Siegwald were named All-Region II. Waters was also named to the All-Tournament team.
One possession here or there changes the game, Palmetto Christian head coach Brian Stanley said. You dont ever want to lose but hopefully this ends up helping us. Hopefully, it serves as a kind of wakeup call to refocus us for the playoffs.
Palmetto Christian will enter the SCISA Class AA boys state playoffs as the No. 2 seed against Thomas Heyward Saturday at Pinewood Prep.

BCS Rankings Week 4:
We are coming to the end of Week 10 of college football, and we've already seen some very intense games.
The No. 6 Alabama Crimson Tide fell to the No. 10 LSU Tigers, and the No. 3 TCU Horned Frogs gave a firm butt-kicking to the No. 5 Utah Utes.
So how will the BCS Rankings look after this weekend?
How far will the Tide fall, and how far will the Tigers rise?
And could we see a different team take over the No. 1 spot?
Here are my predictions for this week's top 25.

on November 7, 2012 - 12:01 AM
School: Niagara
Nickname: Purple Eagles
Affiliation: Metro Atlantic Athletic
Coach: Kendra Faustin
2011-12 record: 13-19, 9-9
> Overview
It was a slow start. Niagara dropped its first four games and it looked as if it would be a long season on Monteagle Ridge, particularly with the number of underclassmen on the roster.
But as the season wore on, the Purple Eagles added experience to talent and made an impressive run.
They took Marist to double overtime in the regular season and went to overtime against the perennial power RedFoxes in the semifinals of the MAAC tournament.
With eight players back from last year, the Purple Eagles are poised to take the next step with plenty of competition already in practice.
"What I like right now is that I have no idea who to play," coach Kendra Faustin said. "In years past, sometimes that has been a problem in not a good way. This year it's a problem in a really good way.
"We have a great group of leaders and it makes my job pretty darn easy. I don't have to ask anyone to work hard. I don't have to ask us to focus or act right. Even though we only have one senior [forward Jess Flamm], we're a pretty mature group which I don't know that we've ever really had so I'm excited about that."
Primary among those leaders is redshirt junior Kayla Stroman. In 2010 she was the MAAC Rookie of the Year, then missed her sophomore season with a knee injury.
She's worked her way back and led the team with 10.8 ppg, 81 steals and 124 assists against just 97 turnovers. And as if she wasn't already dangerous off the screen, she's worked on her left hand to be able to create both ways.
Also returning are sophomore guard Meghan McGuinness, who averaged 6.8 points off the bench and was a solid outside threat
Junior forward Lauren Gatto (10.3 ppg) finally has developed a confident mentality to compliment her physical ability to score and defend in the low post.
> Keys to success
The Purple Eagles can defend. They gave up just 60.9 points a game last year. The problem? Offense. Niagara averaged just 55.6 points and was victim to poor shooting.
"In a couple of our games we could get stops but we really struggled to put the ball in the basket," Faustin said.
"We've added some other options. We've changed our offense a little bit, not drastically but we've added a lot more guard movement. So from an X and O's standpoint, that will really help us. We had some freshmen playing last year that didn't have a lot of game experience. They have that now, and I think that will help us. But we need to score the basketball better."
> Big games
It's an aggressive and impressive schedule for Niagarar. After opening on the road at Robert Morris the Eagles host St. Bonaventure (Nov. 12) in what could be the best Big 4 matchup of the season. Niagara has road games at the University at Buffalo (Dec. 21) and Michigan (Dec. 29). Marist rolls into town on Jan. 20 and the home-and-home with Canisius is Jan. 27 (Koessler Center) and March 1 (Gallagher Center).
> Outlook
The Purple Eagles have talent and experience and yet they're still young. Stroman has developed into a solid leader and if McGuinness adds some scoring punch and Gatto dominates the low post like she can, it could be one of the best seasons for Niagara in a long time.
Their non-conference schedule is tough and could provide some lumps, but if they stay together look for them to get over that .500 hump in the MAAC and make another tournament run. A breakout season is possible including a spot in the finals.

CLEMSON — In the history of its football program, Clemson has won 75 percent of its football games in years when at least four of the previous year's starting offensive linemen return.
That's a good thing, considering the Tigers' all-time winning clip is 59 percent.
So it only makes sense Clemson rolls those same four out again in 2013, which appears to be the case as announced Tuesday by offensive coordinator Chad Morris.
It's not much of a surprise, but at least it's a solidified decision: left tackle Brandon Thomas, left guard David Beasley, right guard Tyler Shatley and right tackle Gifford Timothy retain their starting spots from last season, while center Ryan Norton has come through on his hand-picked selection.
"They've had the most consistency through camp," Morris said. "By all means just because those guys are the five today doesn't mean it'll be the five we put out on the field on Aug. 31."
Could there be a change? Sure. Morris doesn't have to fill in the mythical lineup card for another 10 days. But it's not like he's crossing his fingers for controversy.
"You have to get that five kind of in a mix," Morris said. "Doesn't mean the other guys aren't going to play behind him, but those five have got to be confident and they've got to be able to feed off each other."
Jokingly, Morris did assure reporters Tajh Boyd was the starting quarterback. Fifth-year senior Roderick McDowell figures to get the first snap at running back, Sammy Watkins and Charone Peake are likely to be listed as the starting receivers, and either deep threat Martavis Bryant or fullback/tight end Darrell Smith would become the 11th offensive starter.
"It just depends on how we are (on the field)," Morris said. "Darrell has really improved in a lot of areas. Definitely a hard-nosed guy and a very physical player. You look for his leadership to start this thing out."
Wait till next year
McDowell, true sophomore Zac Brooks, redshirt junior D.J. Howard and walk-on C.J. Davidson may have done their part to do the somewhat unthinkable: sit down highly-touted freshmen Tyshon Dye and Wayne Gallman for 2013.
"You'd like to," Morris said. "That's kind of our intent right now."
Dye has battled a back injury, and Gallman has produced a stellar camp yet struggled at the second intrasquad scrimmage. With only so many carries to go around in this offense and plenty of candidates to take them, a running back committee is forming into place.
"I need help. I can't do it by myself," McDowell said. "I'm not going to sit there and be like, oh, I don't want the ball, because I'd be lying. But I'm going to need all my running backs."
Film rats
As fall camp comes to a close, full attention begins to be shifted toward Georgia, and the Tigers' coaching staff has long since been preparing for their fourth SEC opponent in the past 365 days.
"We do season study on all of our opponents, but obviously there's a lot of emphasis on your opener, since the spring," head coach Dabo Swinney said. "We've seen everything you can see on Georgia, they've seen everything that they can see on Clemson."
Because the Bulldogs must replace over half their defense, it's not easy to discern what types of looks they'll throw at Boyd and the offense.
"You don't ever have this amount of time to prepare for one game," Swinney said. "But there's a lot of changes for them, from a personnel standpoint, so it's hard to piece it all together, and there's changes for us too. It's always a challenging game, the opener — it doesn't matter who you play, because there's a lot of unknowns."
Up to the challenge
Rightfully so, a prevailing storyline going into the Georgia-Clemson showdown compares the two experienced quarterbacks, Boyd and Aaron Murray.
But the Bulldogs' talented duo of Todd Gurley and Keith Marshall can't be overlooked. Both players rushed for more than 6 yards per carry and rated in the top 40 nationally in that category as freshmen in 2012.
"They're big guys, and they run extremely strong," Clemson linebacker Spencer Shuey said. "They seem like they're extremely hard to bring down. They both are really good out in open space — they can run over people, but they're also quick and shifty."

Their fragrance is called "Unbreakable," but Khloé Kardashian Odom and Lamar Odom's marriage might not be as everlasting.
Multiple sources confirm that the reality starlet and her former Lakers player husband, recently charged with a DUI and struggling with drug issues, are living apart.
A source in Kardashian Odom's inner circle says the pair haven't spoken in days.
"They're separated for the moment," says the source. "Khloé is spending many nights at her mom's house and Lamar is at his place [in] downtown [L.A.]"
Another source – a friend of Kardashian Odom – says pals of Odom, who had publicly admitted to using drugs in 2001, "thought Khloé saved him. But in reality she never even knew about his drug issues."
"The whole situation is so sad," the friend continues. "She wants to save her marriage, but Lamar doesn't and he's not in his right mind to do so. So what can Khloé do?"
Echoes another source, who is a longtime Kardashian family friend: "I believe Lamar is the one who wants out [of the marriage]. It's not looking good."
Meanwhile, professionally it's business as usual for Kardashian Odom, who has been shooting scenes for Keeping up with the Kardashians and posting smiling glamorous photos of herself online.

LISBON - With students coming to the Columbiana County Career and Technical Center from nine different schools around the county, math teachers Brenda Hilbert and Aleesha Denmeade presented to the board of education the program they are using as they work to get all the students to advance.
Assessment and Learning in Knowledge Spaces (ALEKS) is a math program which evaluates what math skills students already know and then provides them with individualized lessons to help them learn new skills. The teachers pointed out the high school students were given the test for Algebra I and none showed total mastery. Of 286 topics, the highest score was 48 percent mastered.
Then students began choosing and mastering new skills, setting weekly goals for how many lessons they will complete and taking tests on Thursday to be certain they remember all the lessons they are taking. Every student in the room can be working on their own topic and the teachers have to know all the topics well enough to help each time someone raises their hands. Students receive more one on one time than lectures.
The teachers pointed out students are encouraged to become problem solvers and work at their own pace. The goal is for the students to know all the 286 topics for Algebra I by the end of the class. Some may even get to move forward into Algebra II. Students additionally can work from home if they have internet.
With new graduation requirements coming in Ohio including tougher graduation testing, the teachers are hoping the ALEKS program will help them get students to where they need to be. They expressed excitement about some students already gaining 160
topics, something they could never have had time to teach in a regular classroom.
In other matters before the board at its recent meeting:
- The board accepted a $10,000 donation from Eastern Gateway's Project Hope for medical supplies.
- The CTC will soon be a place to go to get a GED. Adult Education Coordinator Kelly Weikart applied so the school can offer the GED test. Currently those in the area have to go to Akron or Pittsburgh to test for their GED.
- Weikart also announced those adult students taking shorter programs or those with a bachelor's degree already may now be available for new Pell Grant scholarships.

The earliest indications of childhood schizophrenia may include developmental problems, such as:
Some of these signs and symptoms are also common in children with pervasive developmental disorders, such as autism spectrum disorders. So ruling out these developmental disorders is one of the first steps in diagnosis.
Schizophrenia symptoms in teenagers are similar to those in adults, but the condition may be harder to recognize. This may be in part because some of the early symptoms of schizophrenia in teenagers are common for typical development during teen years, such as:
Compared with adults, teens may be:
As children with schizophrenia age, more typical signs and symptoms of the disorder begin to appear. Signs and symptoms may include:
When childhood schizophrenia begins early in life, symptoms may build up gradually. The early signs and symptoms may be so vague that you can't recognize what's wrong, or you may attribute them to a developmental phase.
As time goes on, symptoms may become more severe and more noticeable. Eventually, your child may develop the symptoms of psychosis, including hallucinations, delusions and difficulty organizing thoughts. As thoughts become more disorganized, there's often a "break from reality," frequently resulting in hospitalization and treatment with medication.
It can be difficult to know how to handle vague behavioral changes in your child. You may be afraid of rushing to conclusions that label your child with a mental illness. But early treatment will likely help in the long run. Your child's teacher or other school staff may alert you to changes in your child's behavior.
Seek medical advice if your child:
These general signs and symptoms don't necessarily mean your child has childhood schizophrenia. They could indicate simply a phase or another condition, such as depression, an anxiety disorder or a medical illness that requires other types of evaluation.
Seek medical care as soon as possible if your child has a change in thinking, as these symptoms should be addressed right away. Signs and symptoms can include:

Brazil's Forest Code: more about Dilma's 'partial veto' – and why it's bad news for forests
1 June 2012
Following months of debate in Brazil, President Dilma Rousseff last Friday announced only a 'partial veto' of the controversial revisions to Brazil's forest law. Careful analysis by WWF and other concerned organisations has revealed that this partial veto is not enough to root out key problems - like amnesties for illegal deforestation and destruction of sensitive habitats.
Despite huge public support for a full veto - including 2 million signatures to our joint petition with Avaaz and Greenpeace - President Rousseff rejected just 12 out of 84 articles in the new forest bill, and made a further 32 amendments to the text.
But according to the Comitê Brasil in Defense of the Forests - a coalition of more than 200 civil society organisations, including WWF-Brazil - this isn't enough to prevent the weakening of critical forest protections.
The Comitê believes amnesties in the new Forest Code will absolve previous illegal deforesters of fines, and remove obligations to completely restore illegally deforested areas - including areas of significant social and ecological value.
Some of the most important implications of the new Forest Code bill are:
- Illegal deforestation carried out around springs and headwaters, in mangrove swamps and other wetlands, has been pardoned.
- Protections for hilltops and other sensitive areas have been reduced, which will increase the risk of landslides.
- The amount of forest that must be left intact along riverbanks - previously ranging from 30-500 meters wide - has been severely reduced, and now ranges from only 5 metres to 100 metres, which will increase the risk of flooding.
- The restoration of vegetation alongside rivers and other sensitive areas can now be accomplished using eucalyptus and other non-native species, allowing biodiversity-rich forests to be replaced by monoculture plantations.
As well as environmental concerns, Alexandre Conceição of the Landless Rural Workers Movement adds that the changes fail to address the needs of small-scale farmers. In his view the law, which has had the backing of Brazil's powerful agri-business lobby, has been tailored to support production of commodities for export rather than family-based food production.
Kenzo Juca Ferreira, public policies specialist for WWF-Brazil, highlights the damage that this decision will cause for Brazil's reputation in the run-up to Rio+20 when hesays:
"President Dilma Rousseff has broken her campaign promises and squandered an opportunity to be a global environmental leader.
"With the eyes of the world on Brazil for Rio+20, we will keep up the pressure to protect our forests. The whole world needs to know of the huge discrepancy between talk and action in Brazil."
Importantly, the president's decision still needs to be approved by a majority in Brazil's Congress before it can be written into law. That decision won't happen until after the Rio+20 conference. So we'll be using the Rio summit to keep putting the pressure on Brazil's decision-makers to recognise the huge significance of forests for Brazil and the world.
Why not show President Rousseff - and all world leaders attending the Rio+20 summit - how important Brazil's forests are to you, by adding your story to WWF's Earth Book.

Taylor Elchert belives she has a gift for capturing perfect memories with a camera, and shares that gift at her Tiffin photography studio, Taylor Elchert Photography.
Elchert, who is a sophomore at Tiffin University, said she began taking pictures as a business at the age of 15. She said interest in her work was slow at first, and more than anything else she "wanted to get her name out there and be taken seriously."
After about a year in business, she said, she had her first "official, real client," and Taylor Elchert Photography "exploded" from there.
Elchert said she ran her studio out of her parent's house, and then opened her first personal studio on South Washington Street in 2012. She said she quickly grew out of that space, and moved into the new studio, located at 113 Melmore St., in June. A ribbon-cutting is set for 4 p.m. Friday.
She said the space is a perfect fit for her and her company, and she expects to stay at the Melmore Street location for a while.
Elchert said she has "loved photography since (she) was little." When she was a child, she said she lost a member of her family and realized that "when you lose someone, all you have is pictures."
Elchert said while she is studying marketing at Tiffin University, she is a self-taught photographer.
"It's amazing what you can learn going out and doing it," she said.
Her long-range goals and plans, she said, continue to change, and have gone from wanting to work in a big city to "really loving Tiffin" and feeling comfortable building her business here.
"I've fallen in love with my clients," she said, "and I can't imagine going far."
Elchert said one possible "grand vision" is to buy an old farmhouse and turn it into a studio.
Elchert said her photography often is mistaken for specializing in newborns, but she shoots "everything from newborns to weddings."
She now is booking 2014 newborn photography sessions, and is to begin other 2014 scheduling, including maternity, family and senior shoots, in November. In regards to her newborn sessions, she said, "it's never too early to book."
Elchert said she has "never taken anything for granted," and feels "very blessed" to have such a high demand for her work.
"This is what I love to do," she said.
Elchert said this Halloween she is to open her studio for trick-or-treat walk-in sessions. She said she's never tried walk-ins before, but hopes it will allow families a convenient way to get Halloween pictures. The studio is to be open 5-7:30 p.m. Oct. 27, the night of trick-or-treat in Tiffin, she said.

on January 30, 2013 - 12:03 PM
The record-breaking warmer weather that we awoke to this morning soon will give way to colder temperatures, strong winds and potentially a few inches of snow, forecasters say.
The morning thermometer reading of 66 degrees at 7:30 a.m. was high enough to set a record for today's date – with room to spare, according to meteorologists at the National Weather Service in Buffalo.
The old record of 56 degrees was set in 1916, said Jim Mitchell, a meteorologist at the service.
"This is very unusual for this time of year," said Mitchell. "We did break the record – and we broke it by 10 degrees."
What is coming next may be equally eye-opening for area residents, particularly drivers, weather experts said.
Temperatures will drop between now and mid-day Thursday, said Mitchell, who said the reading at the airport had plummeted to 57 degrees by shortly before 11 a.m. today.
By Thursday morning, temperatures will likely only be in the upper 20s, Mitchell said.
A high-wind advisory is in place for the region starting at 6 p.m. and extending into the middle of the day Thursday, around 1 p.m., Mitchell said.
The high winds expected may reach 55 mph in gusts, he said.
Also, rain and snow will fall across the region as the temperatures continue to descend, the National Weather Service meteorologist said.
Rainfall totals had accumulated to about .85 inches total, as measured at the airport, between 7 a.m. Tuesday and late morning today, according to Mitchell.
An estimated 1 to 3 inches of snow is expected to fall across the Buffalo area over the next day or so, Mitchell said.
Snow showers will likely continue Thursday and Friday, and possibly into Saturday and Sunday as well, he said.
"The lake effect machine will be turned on again, big time," said Mitchell.
Snow falls might be higher in the areas south of the city, especially south of Hamburg, Mitchell said.
For residents, the typical cautions apply, including for drivers who should exercise special care on roads that may be changing from wet to frozen during the day and into the evening today, Mitchell said.
In other words: watch your evening commute and after-school trips.
"Look for slick sports on the roadways," Mitchell said. "The roads could be pretty treacherous out there."
Black ice, ponding on the roads, and poor visibility could be particular concerns, Mitchell said.
"As a driver, you could run into these things," he said.
And with the high winds predicted, the meteorologist said, one added concern is for tree branches blowing down, including into roads.
"With the winds, there's definitely some possibility for tree damage," Mitchell said. "So be vigilant."

Madden NFL 17 (PlayStation 3)
What a week with Madden's new features and obsessive details did for my love-hate relationship with my childhood team.
Call of Duty: Black Ops III (PlayStation 3)
The latest entry in the Call of Duty series is all about cybernetic soldiers, increased mobility, and zombies.
LEGO Dimensions Starter Pack (PlayStation 3)
It has all the usual "toys-to-life" bugbears, but Lego Dimensions is packed with great characters, clever puzzles and a physical experience you won't get anywhere else.
FIFA 16 (PlayStation 3)
FIFA 16 continues its solid track record by improving on an already winning formula and introducing Women's International Teams for the very first time.
LEGO Jurassic World (PlayStation 3)
Lego Jurassic World freshens up the formula. You can insert your own bone-related pun here.
Battlefield Hardline (PlayStation 3)
Battlefield Hardline takes the fight to the streets, but does this new episodically framed first-person shooter take the series in a welcome direction?
Far Cry 4 (PlayStation 3)
Far Cry 4 borrows a lot from the last game, but it adds enough excitement, fresh ideas and a brilliant new landscape to warrant the return trip.
Dragon Age: Inquisition (PlayStation 3)
Dragon Age Inquisition isn't perfect -- but pretty close and very easily the best in the series by a wide margin.
The Evil Within (PlayStation 3)
Certainly an acquired taste, The Evil Within is sure to satiate the horror fanatic. For those with an appetite for an investment-heavy exploit through the mind of a madman, The Evil Within is more than capable, even with a few bumps along the way.
Borderlands: The Pre-Sequel! (PlayStation 3)
It's not the best Borderlands experience out there, but The Pre-Sequel is a solid entry that will satisfy Borderlands diehards most. If you've never played a Borderlands game though, try starting with Borderlands 2.

HOLLIDAYSBURG - A Brooklyn native was sentenced Tuesday to a minimum of six years in prison after entering guilty pleas to several drug charges.
Donald L. Carey, 30, had been charged with possession with intent to distribute heroin and cocaine, conspiracy and four counts of possession of illegal drugs.
Blair County President Judge Jolene G. Kopriva sentenced Carey to consecutive three- to 10-year prison terms on the cocaine and heroin charges, which means his prison time will be six to 20 years.
Blair County attorney Ed Zang represented Carey, while Assistant District Attorney Peter Weeks spoke on behalf of the prosecution.
Carey's arrest came after police took his girlfriend, Danielle Stossel, 26, into custody on May 28, 2010, following the purchase of
marijuana by a onfidential informant.
When Stossel was taken into custody, she told police her source was a male named "Fest."
But when she was left alone in a room at the Altoona Police Department, an officer noticed that Stossel was using her cellphone to send a message.
Police intercepted the message that stated: "Cops coming over. Get rid of all the stuff on the illuminated screen."
Officers went to the couple's apartment on the 500 block of Fourth Street and entered it without a warrant. They noticed a digital scale in the kitchen, marijuana in two bedrooms and a stash of money.
When police were there, Carey entered the apartment, picked up a bag and began to walk away.
They stopped him and discovered 1,246 packets of heroin, worth between $30,000 and $50,000 on the street. Police also found $3,503 in cash and 40 grams of cocaine during the ongoing search.
One of the questions in the case was whether the warrantless search was legal. Blair County Judge Timothy M. Sullivan upheld the search in a written opinion in March, writing that it was "readily apparent" to police reading Stossel's message there were drugs in the apartment.
Stossel spent 22 months behind bars before being released on bail in March after she told Sullivan that she was a changed person. She stated that life behind bars "is not me," and she said she wanted to get back into the working world.
She has not yet been sentenced.

5 Hilarious Ways Corporate Twitter Accounts Go Wrong
#2. Their Spambots Start Tweeting to Other Spambots
Jupiterimages/Photos.com/Getty Images
It had to happen. In an ecosystem crowded with promoted accounts and automated spammer robots, we finally get this:
Via @CooperTire
Look at it. It's beautiful in its perversion. An ebb and flow of natural predatory madness as spam piles atop spam atop spam atop spam, all hitching a ride on the one company that paid real money for the publicity. It's parasitic advertising. Digital ticks and leeches, hanging onto the bodies of more advanced companies, draining what they can until someone notices them and pulls them off with the "Report for spam" button. These are the guys who ruin every form of online advertising ever invented, and now they've found their way to Twitter. It's impressive to watch it in real time as they latch on and then fall off one by one as more people report them, only to come back with new throwaway accounts. Like a Douchebag Phoenix.
I won't link to one for fear of someone clicking it and fucking up their computer, but regular Twitter users will know what I mean when I mention the "tattoo spammers." For those who don't know, they would show up into random conversation and post something like, "Hey, I love your tattoo" or "Is this your new tattoo?" Then they'd toss up a link that looked like it led to an Instagram account or an individual photo. But instead, it lead to a thousand kicks in your computer's balls.
Via Twitter
As weird as it seems, it must have worked because these things were fucking everywhere for quite some time. And as long as these things (both regular spam and parasite ads) are around, they taint advertising as a whole because they all get lumped together. They're all ads. Then all ads are spam. Then all spam is bad. Then all ads are bad. It's a never-ending cycle of association -- it's what killed email advertising for everyone; not just the actual spammers.
#1. They'll Always Be Viewed as a Public Complaint Department
Jupiterimages/Pixland/Getty Images
My favorite corporate Twitter account, by far, is @Windows. Every single promoted tweet they put out ends up absolutely flooded with complaints and problems. I have never seen one that didn't end up exactly like this:
Via @Windows
And those are far from the only complaints in that string. Here's the original tweet, where you can see them stretch on for days. And if you're not worn out after that, here's another one of their promoted tweets that just turned into a brutal public flogging. Ignore the dickhead trolling them right off the bat.
Now, understand that Microsoft dug their own grave by putting out one of the worst operating systems they've ever designed. And they didn't help matters by following it up with an absolute clusterfuck of a console reveal. But even if you set all that aside, the fact is people are going to bitch about your product, and that Twitter account is their easiest point of contact with you. So if they're in McDonald's and their order is wrong, chances are they already have a phone in hand, tapping on a keyboard ... like my favorite complaint of all time:
Via @_JDegraFF
Not to beat a dead horse, but Walmart is a great example of this. Their customer service is notoriously bad, so instead of waiting for a bitchy manager or some rude piece of shit behind the customer service counter, many people just sign into Twitter and start complaining to them. If you go to their Twitter page and make sure the replies are turned on, you'll see this message (or one very similar) quite a bit:
Via @Walmart
Every one of those that contain that email address is a response to a complaint. Most of those complaints are about bad customer service. All of those customers are then asked to email their complaints to a different department, continuing the ever-growing process of pissing them off. There's no real attempt to take care of the problem on the spot, or for the Twitter people to ask for a bit more information and forward it along, and it's just baffling to watch such a disorganized circlejerk.
I kind of hope they never figure it out, because watching it is like going to the circus. One where you get to sit safely behind unbreakable glass while the animals break free and maul everyone around you. It's such a beautiful, hilarious chaos to witness, and the worse it gets, the better I feel about my life. That's probably not healthy, but it works.

Our nation is in the midst of a cultural war with the steady erosion of moral values and relentless attacks on religious freedom. Recent examples include the well-funded and organized campaign against Phil Robertson, the patriarch of the Duck Dynasty family and the VA Hospital in Dallas refusing to accept Christmas cards for bedridden veterans.
Cultural forces are seeking to insure that no nativity scene is displayed in the public square, that the CEO of Chick-fil-A is somehow guilty of a crime for supporting traditional marriage, the administration's health care mandate forces Catholic and christian businesses to subsidize abortion and pay for medical services that violate their beliefs.
Our nation will survive or fall based on how we handle these cultural issues and not whether the rich pay more in taxes or if the minimum wage is increased.

Save Gas -- Save Money -- Save the Environment
Tips to save you money, improve driving safety, and prevent air pollution!
Motor Vehicles & Air Pollution:Broward County has approximately 1.4 million registered motor vehicles. These vehicles are the major source of air pollution in South Florida. They emit hydrocarbons and nitrogen oxides - which react in the presence of strong sunlight to produce ground-level ozone (smog) - as well as particulate matter and carbon monoxide.
Air Pollution & Your Health:The pollutants emitted into the air by motor vehicles can affect human health. They can aggravate existing health conditions such as heart disease, and lung diseases like bronchitis, asthma and emphysema. These pollutants can also irritate the throat and mucous membranes, trigger chest pains, coughing, nausea and congestion, and make it harder to breathe.
Proper Vehicle Maintenance Includes:
• Keep tires properly inflated. Check the pressure in all four tires every 2 weeks. Check the owner's manual or the label on the inside of the driver's door, for proper inflation guidelines.• Check and periodically replace the air filter, vacuum and coolant hoses, oil, oil filter, fluids and belts.• Follow the manufacturer's preventative maintenance recommendations for spark plugs, fuel metering system and ignition timing.• Use the fuel type recommended by the manufacturer.• Get regular tune-ups (once a year).• Service should be performed by a certified technician who understands modern emissions control systems.
Driving Tips to Improve Mileage & Reduce Air Pollution:
• Avoid long idles - park instead of using the drive-thru!• Drive smoothly - accelerate and decelerate gradually.• Only use the air conditioner when necessary; use the re-circulating air instead.• Maintain steady speeds. Use cruise control on highways.• Avoid carrying unnecessary weight in the trunk or on top of the vehicle.• Don't rev the engine.• Don't "top off" the gas tank. Fuel expands in warm weather and can cause an overflow.• By re-setting the trip meter each time you refuel, you can keep a log to track your mileage.
Car care saves you money!Assuming you drive 228 miles per week,* with mileage of 28 miles per gallon,* and fuel costing $3.00 per gallon:*• For every week your car is out of tune, you could be wasting between $0.60 - $7.00.• Speeding, rapid acceleration and braking is unsafe and can cost you $1.00 - $9.41 per week.• Driving a vehicle that gets 32 mpg rather than 22 mpg can save you about $12.27 per week• Replacing a clogged air filter can save you up to $3.08 per week.• Every 5 mph over 60 mph costs you an additional $1.00/week.• Proper tire inflation can save you $1.00 - $3.08 per week.• Using the manufacturer's recommended grade of oil can save you $0.20 - $0.39 per week. *national average-
That adds up to a savings of $815 - $1,884 per year!
Remember, the best way to reduce vehicle emissions is to drive less!• Try taking public transit - BCT bus or Tri-Rail.• Carpool to school, work and social events.• Call 1-800-234-RIDE to start a car pool.• Combine errands to reduce driving time.• Drive during off-peak hours.• Bicycle, walk or skate whenever you can.
For more information, call 954-519-1260 or visit www.broward.org/PollutionPrevention/AirQuality
Smoking Vehicle Program
Driving a smoking vehicle is a violation of Broward County Code and the Florida Clean Outdoor Air Law. If a smoking vehicle is observed by a law enforcement officer or Broward County Natural Resource Enforcement Officer, the owner of the vehicle can be fined up to $500. For more information or to report a smoking vehicle call 954-519-1499, or visit Smoking Vehicles.Required Plug-ins: Adobe® Reader®

On Wednesday's episode of The X Factor, judge Simon Cowell predicted that contestant Carlito Olivero would "go home" this week following his lackluster performance of "Rhythm Is Gonna Get You."
But on Thursday night, an annoyed Cowell rolled his eyes when it was revealed that not only was Olivero, 24, staying put this week, but that he was the first contestant to make it through to the top 10.
Adding insult to injury, the girl group Sweet Suspense – whose performance of the Tony Basil song "Mickey" left Cowell raving that they were "the best of the night" on Wednesday – was sent home in a shocking elimination that host Mario Lopez repeatedly described as "an unpopular decision."
"There's a look of shock on Simon's face," Lopez said after revealing Sweet Suspense was eliminated, to which Cowell replied, "I can't believe it. I thought they were fantastic last night ... Girls, it's not your fault. I don't know what happened here."
He continued: "Without being rude, there were worse people than you last night."
Joining Olivero in the top 10 were Josh Levi, 15, Rion Paige, 13, single dad Jeff Gutt, 37, and the all-boy country group Restless Road.
And although Demi Lovato told him he didn't have the "X factor," Tim Olstad, 24, also made it through to the next round after his less-than-stellar performance of "Against All Odds," Wednesday night.
Not surprisingly, fan favorite Lillie McCloud, 54, who performed Chaka Khan's "Ain't Nobody" on Wednesday night, sailed through to the next round, as did popular couple Alex & Sierra.
That left just two acts competing for one final spot: Khaya Cohen and Rachel Potter. The pair were asked to sing for their survival one last time and after two spirited performances (Cohen sang Solomon Burke's "Don't Give Up on Me" and Potter took on Shania Twain's "From This Moment"), it was up to the judges to decide who was heading home.
And while Kelly Rowland voted to send Cohen home, her fellow judges Lovato, Paulina Rubio and Cowell all voted to send Potter, 29, home, which put Cohen, 16, through to the next round.
The X Factor returns on Wednesday at 8 p.m. ET on Fox with performances from the top 10.

GO JAZZ!! Time to watch our bigs piss off Cousins! That will teach him for not coming to Utah that one Saturday a few weeks ago.
#BelieveInLindsey #BelieveInSnyder
Should be an easy game, Jazz by 8. Just hoping Tyreke doesn't have his breakout match.
If anybody goes that went to the Jimmer game in SLC last year too, I would be curious to hear what the "Jimmer mania" looks like in comparison now from what you remember last year. Or maybe I'll just gauge it by how many people end up bitching in the game thread about guys wearing Jimmer jerseys because I seem to remember a lot of that last year. I'd imagine it has died off a lot though.
Jimmer is the only player on the Kings who can shoot worth a damn. DMC @ 42% oouch!
Put some respeck in my paycheck
Is it next Saturday yet? Where DMC runnin?

It seemed like last year Evans got into the lane at will against us. Stop him and I think we win the game. I trust Cousins will probably get mad and shoot a ton of ill advised jumpers, so I'm not really worried about him.
"I'm a moron for thinking the Browns could even sniff 10 wins in a division where the other three teams (two of whom almost always make the playoffs) made the post-season last year. Gyp Rosetti's thee God of football knowledge." - Brown Notes
