To get to Iris Fischer's apartment, a place so modest that her oversized pound hound, both in size and spirit, takes up half the space, you have to find an alley just past the railroad tracks in LaSalle.
Yet Fischer is content there. She doesn't need a big place. She visits them instead.
Fischer just returned from a trip up Kilimanjaro, Africa's tallest peak at 19,341 feet.
She calls it a "bucket list" trip, but it's a little more than that. For 20 years, she was married and raised kids, and that was her life. She never did anything for herself. The last couple of years, now that her kids are 16 and 19, she's taken trips like this one, saving her money from her job selling steel at Norfolk Iron and Metal not only to fulfill a lifelong dream but simply because she can.
Fischer, 46, loves the mountains and is not afraid of adventure. A motorcycle sits out front. She's climbed a few 14ers.
Kilimanjaro is perhaps the easiest of the seven summits, the tallest peak on each continent, with altitude, the cold and the length of the trip being the only real challenges on most routes. But it's still a tough climb, something most people simply can't do.
But she does not call herself a climber. She's afraid of heights. Near the last day of the summit attempt, because of the route she took, she had to scale a steep wall with some Class 3 climbing.
"I have to admit, I did cry a little bit up that wall," she said. "I was all happy that I made it alive."
It rained so much one day — the route is famous for the number of ecological zones it goes through, and one is a rainforest — that the tents seemed to be pitched on moats. Summit day was the hardest. It always is. The guides gave them four hours of sleep, but she snoozed for maybe an hour, and when she woke from the brief nap for the attempt, it was minus-20 degrees. Her camera froze, and when she took off her gloves, her hands froze too, just seconds later. She wore enough clothes, she said, that she looked like the Michelin Man, and they didn't seem to be enough.
"I said to myself, more than once, 'Why can't I just take a normal vacation?'" Fischer said. "Just go to the beach and relax."
Well, here's why. She DID take one of those vacations a few years ago, a cruise, and she was bored silly.
But it's more than that, too. She was 18 when she came to America from Germany to follow a soldier who eventually became her husband. She also believes in helping others. She brought supplies to an orphanage in Africa.
"You take advantage of their resources, so you should bring some of yours," she said.
She learned something from that same trip. She appreciates her small apartment even more than she already did.
"I'll never say I'm broke again," she said. "We aren't even close to that."

Placidus a Spescha was an extremely athletic monk who lived in the Benedictine monastery at Disentis in the late 18th century. His achievements include being the first to climb the 3,027-metre-high Piz Ault high above the abbey village. One of the finest descents in the Disentis ski area was named after this mountaineering pioneer. The Placidus a Spescha Piste affords marvelous views and enjoys a sunny location. It leads from the foot of the Piz Ault over several altitude levels, and finally through a forest to Sontga Catrina above the village.

Entries available for 'When I Grow Up'
CHARLESTON - Knowing what you want to be when you become an adult will give 15 West Virginia elementary school students a chance to win up to $5,000 for higher education. The sixth-annual "When I Grow Up" (WIGU) contest, sponsored by SMART529 and the West Virginia State Treasurer's Office, was announced today. Also this year, teachers have an opportunity to compete in the third-annual teacher essay contest for a $2,500 cash prize. Teachers of grades K through 5 are encouraged to write a short essay about how they will use the SMART529 lesson plans to help inspire their students to go on to college or pursue other higher education opportunities.
The "When I Grow Up" contest allows students, with the help of their parent or guardian, to submit, in 100 words or less, an essay that answers what they want to be when they grow up and why. Entries will be judged on originality, creativity and the importance of post-secondary education.
Three age group winners (K-1, 2-3, 4-5) will be judged in each of the five regions, making for a total of 15 winners. The 15 winners will be awarded a $500 college savings account and will be notified in the spring about a news conference to announce the grand prize winner, who will win a $5,000 SMART529 scholarship. Each regional winner's school will receive a $500 cash award.
Entry forms for both the student and teacher's contests are available at www.SMART529.com. In addition, forms will be available at elementary schools throughout the state within the next two weeks. The deadline for entry form and essay submissions is Feb. 22.

Greeley police are looking for a man they believe stabbed another man after the two had an argument about who was stronger.
A Weld District Court judge issued a warrant for the arrest of Ramon Gurule, 55, in connection with a stabbing. Joseph Rivera said the two were in his apartment Sunday in the 2100 block of 8th Avenue, and they began arguing about who was "tougher," according to an arrest affidavit. Rivera told officers that he and Gurule got into a physical altercation and Gurule said, "I'm a stabber" before he stabbed Rivera with a large steak knife, the report states.
Rivera's warrant carries a $150,000 bond. He faces one count of first-degree assault.

The excitement on the students' faces was evident Friday as they filed into the football stadium at Ashley Ridge High School.
Led by the school's band through a tunnel of cheering students and under a balloon arch, they entered the field for the opening ceremony of the school's fifth Swamp Fest, an annual field day for about 200 special-needs students across Dorchester District 2.
"Are the students excited about this event?" said Newington assistant teacher Regina Huggins. "Let me put it this way. I got a big hug and a kiss from one of my boys when he looked out the window of the bus and saw that we were here."
These are trainable mentally disabled and profoundly mentally disabled students. They are students who do not often get to go on field trips, Huggins said.
When asked by Principal Karen Radcliffe to come up with a schoolwide service project shortly after Ashley Ridge opened in 2008, special education teacher Irene Mazell envisioned the field. About 125 attended that first year.
The event has grown each year, Assistant Principal Mona Caudle said.
"This has definitely become one of the things that defines us here," she said.
This year, the school's Key Club took over organizing the event.
"It's something everyone looks forward to, from the kids who get to come participate to our students who volunteer," said school counselor Sean Connor, who is also a sponsor of the Key Club. "We all get a lot out of it."
About 1,000 Ashley Ridge students helped organize this year's event, serving as buddies to participants or running the 40-plus game booths, which ranged from the soccer team's penalty kicks to the National Honor Society's Whack-a-Nerd water balloon toss, all adapted to fit the students' needs. There also was face painting, parachute play, bowling, a dunk booth and more. Every club and sports team at the school participates.
Junior Eric Poland said students not only enjoy volunteering for the event but also see its benefits.
"It allows for all the special needs students to get involved and gives them a normal day," he said.

text: This volume illustrates the variety of William Morris's prose, while focusing on one theme: the earthly paradise. The "Nowhere" of News from Nowhere (1890) is England in 2102, an ideal pastoral society born out of revolution. It is as compelling a dream of the future as the nightmares of Brave New World and Nineteen Eighty-Four. Exhilaratingly, it reminds us that nothing is inevitable about the way we live—now or in 1890.

Thiebaud's company, Real Skateboards, is selling custom skateboards styled after Green Day's album art. Proceeds will benefit the hospital.
BERKELEY, CALIF.—Local skateboard legend Jim Thiebaud has definitely made good
The co-founder of Real Skateboards, one of the biggest and most respected board companies in the U.S., Thiebaud announced a new fundraising partnership on Monday with East Bay rockers Green Day that will benefit Children's Hospital & Research Center in Oakland.
"It's a true collaboration with Green Day," Thiebaud told the Daily News. "I've been friends with Billie Joe for more than 15 years. I grew up in Berkeley and Oakland. When you were a punk rocker or a skateboarder, you stuck out, so you got to know everyone in the scene."
Mimicking the graphics for Green Day's latest, multi-album release, "Uno!," "Dos!," and "Tré!," Real is issuing custom skateboards that the company will sell in skate shops and online. Proceeds will go to Children's Hospital.

The Buffalo Public Schools will hire 30 Teach for America recruits for the next school year, and another 30 the following year, if the School Board approves the plan next week.
The plan will help recruit minority teachers to the district, Superintendent Pamela C. Brown said. It also will help fill positions in areas that the district has trouble filling, including special education, bilingual instruction, English as a second language and secondary math, she said.
Teach for America is a national nonprofit organization that recruits recent college graduates and people already working in other fields to teach in public schools with high concentrations of poverty. They must commit to teach for at least two years.
"It's a program that has a great national reputation," the superintendent said. "It's nationally recognized for the quality of the candidates they're able to attract. They particularly look for candidates who have a strong sense of mission as it relates to improving achievement in urban districts."
Teach for America recruits undergo intensive training during the summer before they are placed in a school. They are not, however, certified teachers. They will receive a transitional teaching license from the state Education Department that is good for up to two years, according to Darren Brown, executive director for human resources.
Teach for America hires will have to go through the district's standard screening and interview process, officials said.
The district will pay each of them the same salary as any other first-year teacher, Darren Brown said. In addition, the district will pay Teach for America $5,000 a year per teacher, for two years, to cover professional development that the organization will provide to the teachers. In its first year, the program will cost the district $150,000 in professional development costs.
Those professional development sessions will be open to all the teachers in the schools where the Teach for America hires work, Darren Brown said.
The plan comes at the suggestion of Robert G. Wilmers, chairman and CEO of M&T Bank, according to SuperintendentBrown. Wilmers has agreed to cover certain administrative costs for the program, which will include the salary of a Teach for America coordinator who will be based in Buffalo, she said.
When district administrators presented the plan to the School Board on Wednesday, several board members wanted to know whether Buffalo Teachers Federation President Phil Rumore supported it.
"I have personally had a conversation with Phil Rumore, and he is receptive to this," the superintendent said.
The Teach for America hires would be union members, she said.
"If it will help the school district, I'm willing to give it a shot," Rumore said in a phone interview.
Critics of Teach for America point out that the group's recruits are only required to commit to teaching in a district for two years. The critics question how effective the program is if its teachers do not make a long-term commitment to the field. In New York State, teachers generally do not receive tenure until after their third year.
Information provided to the district by Teach for America says that two-thirds of its alumni remain in the education field in some position. The same information indicates that of the nearly 28,000 Teach for America alumni, 7,800 are teachers.
"Teach for America teachers remain in the field at about the same rate as other teachers," the superintendent said.
A recent study reported in the trade journal Education Week found that 61 percent of Teach for America teachers continued teaching in public schools beyond their required two-year stint. By their fifth year, 15 percent were still teaching in the school they had originally been assigned to.

Doug West arrived at Villanova in 1985 - when the Big East was at its peak.
The Wildcats were coming off their national championship from a Final Four that included fellow conference members Georgetown and St. John's.
The players from that era - Ewing, Mullin, Coleman, Douglas, Pinckney, Pearl Washington - were matched only by the legendary coaches such as John Thompson, Louie Carnesecca, Jim Boeheim and Rollie Massimino.
All were pillars that helped turn Dave Gavitt's vision into the nation's first basketball superconference.
And this weekend, as the Big East as we've known it plays its final tournament at Madison Square Garden, memories abound of just how special it was.
West, despite having spent 12 years in the NBA, still considers it "at the top" of his favorite times as a player.
"It would have to be because it was my first experience going to New York as a young freshman leaving Altoona, Pennsylvania for the first time," he was saying the other day from Rio Grande, Texas, where he's coaching in the NBA's Developmental League. "It was big time."
West found himself struck by the bustle of New York City and especially inside Madison Square Garden, where the players took the escalators up to the court and the piercing but understated voice of the late John Condon, would echo, "Welcome to Madison Square Garden, the most famous arena in the world."
"You'd walk the hallways with all the pictures of the people who had performed there - in games, in concerts ... the whole atmosphere was amazing," West said.
When he was done playing and returned to Villanova, where he coached for four seasons (2007-2010 and last year), the Big East's structure had changed for the worse.
"When I played, you had home and away against everybody, and when I came back, I had no record against a lot of the teams we played," he said. "It's sad to see it dissolve, but I like that the Catholic schools will retain the [Big East] name because they were the first ones in it."
West, now 45, also noticed a difference in the way the players of today interact. Even though players from his era often stayed at least three years and often four, there wasn't much fraternizing.
"When we'd come into the Garden for the Big East, the Georgetown guys would be against in the wall, in their trench coats, and they wouldn't smile or say a word to you," he said. "We didn't want to talk to each other. It was business. It's not like that now because all the players have all come through the AAU system and they're friendly. It's a different league."
Maybe with the football schools going their own way, the Big East will return to its roots and re-establish some stability. Let's hope so.
As for West, he was recommended to the NBADL by Houston Rockets coach Kevin McHale, the former coach and general manager in Minnesota when West played there.
He's paying his dues, enduring rugged travel from Idaho to Rio Grande and learning the pro coaching ropes with the idea that he'll be a candidate for an NBA position in the future.
The Rio Grande Vipers are affiliated with Houston, and several players have been called up to the big league.
"I can't lie: The travel is rough," West said. "I've sat in more airports than I've been in my life, but the basketball is good. It's very competitive, and it's 85 degrees here. This is a great learning experience for me. I appreciate everything that's going on, but the ultimate goal is to get to the NBA."
And, should that happen, maybe it will bring a trip back in time ... to Madison Square Garden.

UNIVERSITY PARK - Ever hear the saying about "the other shoe dropping?" Well, it happened to Duquesne at the Jordan Center Saturday - quite literally - courtesy of Penn State's D.J. Newbill.
The sophomore guard tallied game highs in points (23), rebounds (12) and assists (five) as the Nittany Lions held off a second-half rally for an 84-74 victory over the Dukes. PSU (8-4) is riding a four-game winning streak heading into Big Ten play, its longest since the start of the 2010-11 season.
"We really tried to get after him and wear him down," Duquesne coach Jim Ferry said of Newbill. "I don't think we did a good job of it. He was fantastic today."
Newbill was nearly done in by his own defective footwear, though. PSU saw a 22-point second-half lead shrink to 78-69 with just over a minute remaining. Newbill, who did a masterful job of handling the point against the Dukes' pressure defense all game, broke past midcourt this time and then went tumbling to the floor.
Fans moaned because no foul was called and Duquesne (7-7) scored off the steal. But in truth, Newbill was not hit. Rather, his right sneaker blew out - the leather upper separated from the sole.
"My shoe busted open," he recalled following the game.
The game was still live after the Dukes' basket, though, and somehow - with Newbill hobbling around on a blown tire - 6-foot-6 forward Ross Travis single-handedly broke the press and was fouled.
As all this was going on, PSU coach Pat Chambers was begging for someone to get a new shoe in Newbill's size.
"I was screaming for like a minute: 'Who's got a [size] 13?'" Chambers said.
A manager was dispatched to the locker room and returned with a new shoe for Newbill, who was able to put it on during the dead ball when Travis was fouled. Travis made one of two free throws for a 79-71 lead and Newbill returned to the floor - now wearing a white sneaker on his left foot and a blue one on his right.
Query Winters hit a 3-pointer for Duquesne to cut the lead to 79-74 with 56 seconds left. But with Newbill back in good (albeit mismatching) sneakers, Penn State pulled away again. Newbill had three points and a rebound as the Lions did not allow a point the rest of the way.
The other shoe had been dropped.
With All-Big Ten guard Tim Frazier lost for the season due to a torn Achilles' tendon, Newbill - a natural two guard - has been forced to man the point. No one else on the roster is equipped to handle the ball so often.
As Newbill has slowly but surely improved in his new role, the Lions have gotten better and better. They are now 6-2 without Frazier.
Saturday marked Newbill's best game yet at the point. The Dukes did what every Big Ten opponent is likely to do - they pressured Newbill all over. Super quick rookie guard Derrick Colter and/or physical senior Sean Johnson were in his grill all day.
Afterward, Newbill had the scars to prove it. In the postgame press conference, there was still blood leaking from his right elbow and left knee. In fact, in the first half, the Philadelphia native had so much blood on the front of his shorts that he had to change them. Players on the bench quickly created a huddle - as if they did that sort of thing every day - around him and he slid out of the old shorts and into the new ones.
Newbill also had a butterfly bandage under his left eye. And even when addressing the media shortly after the game, he was still wearing mismatched sneakers.
"Awesome, just awesome," Chambers said when asked to assess Newbill's postgame look. "I love it. That's the way it's supposed to be. That's a Philly guard. If you don't come out of a game ... with blood or scraped-up knees and two different sneakers, then you didn't play hard. He obviously played extremely hard."
And he did so for 39-plus minutes.
After surviving a basket-brawl in which the teams combined for 54 fouls, 65 free-throw attempts and four technicals, Newbill actually thanked the Dukes.
"It was a tough, physical game," he said. "That's what happens in the Big Ten. I appreciate those guys getting me ready."

"Peanut" by Ayun Halliday and Paul Hoppe; Schwartz & Wade, $15.99 (paperback). Ages 11 to 14.
When Sadie Wildhack transfers to a new high school, she comes up with the perfect way to find new friends: Pretend to have a deadly peanut allergy.
And "Operation Peanut" seems to be working. Sadie has people to sit with at lunch. She even manages to find a sort-of boyfriend, who gives her a necklace with a peanut safely encased in bronze as a gift.
But things start to get very complicated. She has to remember to put on her warning bracelet after she leaves the house, and take it off before she gets home, so her mom won't ask her about it. And what about that health form her mom was supposed to fill out for school? And the EpiPen she tells people she left in her locker? What if she invites friends over and her mom serves peanut butter as a snack? What if there's a school bake sale and a teacher is convinced Sadie has eaten a chocolate zucchini cake with a peanut in it and wants to call 911?
This graphic novel is a page-turner from beginning to end, as Sadie learns there were probably easier ways to get comfortable with new people in a new place.

Around, and around, and around again! Dogs will often circle the bed or carpet two or three times before curling up and going to sleep.
Are they checking for bed bugs or snakes? Not necessarily.
Many times dogs are just flattening out their beds to get comfortable. Actually, this behavior is a genetic trait left over from when the dog's ancestors used to dig their own shelters. After digging, the dogs would feel comfortable in their "dens" and plop down for some much needed shut-eye.

The Poet Winged
By Al Felix
Unleash the mountains from their kennels,
flowers from their eyries, let them fly
to unmapped places, across uncharted seas;
let loose the variegated clouds, cirrus,
stratus, cumulonimbus, give them poles
to fish with in the sky's bottomless waters,
catch errant, inattentive stars; give paints
and brushes to trees, crayons to crows
so that they can write graffiti on the far
side of the moon, and when night,
inebriate of air, comes stumbling home
clothed only in that air, cover his nakedness
with shadows discarded by yesterday's sun.
Then it will be possible, if just barely so,
to gather together the songs of mountains,
flowers, trees and crows, night and all its
companions unnamed here, and with
a blindingly lucent skein of perhapses,
stitch all of the above into a shadowed
cloak and make a maybe that might
become a winged thing, capable of
flight to Somewhere's Nowhere and
back, having discovered itself to be
a mythical bird called Poem.
AL FELIX will join UB English professor emeritus Howard Wolf in this month's Earth's Daughters Gray Hair Series reading at 7:30 p.m. Wednesday at Hallwalls Cinema, 341 Delaware Ave. (near Tupper Street) in Buffalo. A former English teacher at Orchard Park High School, his writing has appeared in a wide variety of publications. He is the author of "Jackie Felix Remembered: Wife, Artist, Feminist," a chapbook of poems and photographs about his wife, the prominent Buffalo painter and printmaker Jackie Felix, who died last April.

|Preservation of Fe(II) by Carbon-Rich Matrices in Hydrothermal Plumes
|Wednesday, 29 April 2009 00:00
Despite the considerable amount of iron that enters the oceans from the continents and from hydrothermal vents at mid-ocean ridges on the seafloor, there are large regions of the global ocean where iron availability is so low that it limits life. Oceanographers have long explained this anomaly by assuming that the iron in the sea is primarily incorporated as Fe(III) into inorganic minerals that lack both the mobility to circulate over long distance and bioavailability to sea life as an essential nutrient. Now, a collaboration led by researchers from the Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution has reported that the hydrothermal plumes emerging from the vents actually contain iron in both Fe(II) and Fe(III) oxidation states associated with organic material from nearby flora and fauna. The collaboration suggests that the organic matrices prevent oxidation and precipitation of the Fe(II), perhaps increasing both its circulation through the world's oceans and its bioavailability as a deep-sea nutrient.
The cycling of iron throughout the oceans has been an area of intense research for the last two decades, including studies of the chemistry and mineralogy of very small particles streaming from hydrothermal vents in the global mid-ocean ridge (MOR) system, a volcanic chain 55,000 to 60,000 km in length that crosses the floor of all the Earth's major ocean basins. It has long been assumed that insoluble mineral particles, which stay very close to the site of venting, form from iron oxidation and precipitation reactions in hydrothermal plumes. However, the details of iron mineral formation within plumes are poorly understood, in part because plume particles are a heterogeneous mixture of many different materials with exceedingly small particle size. Moreover, recently it has been proposed that some of the iron makes it way into organic particles, where it escapes mineral formation and may enter the open-ocean.
To understand what happens to iron once it issues from the seafloor from MOR vents, in particular whether some of it is found in organic carbon-rich matrices, collaboration members turned to the ALS to analyze hydrothermal particles captured in sediment traps as the particles rained out from the non-buoyant plume above the Tica vent west of Mexico and south of Panama. They examined the distribution and chemical speciation of iron and carbon within small (less than 10-µm diameter) plume particles from the Tica vent by scanning transmission x-ray microscopy (STXM) and near-edge x-ray absorption fine-structure (NEXAFS) spectroscopy at Beamlines 5.3.2, and 11.0.1 and the mineralogy of the particles by micro-focused x-ray diffraction and x-ray absorption spectroscopy at Beamline 10.3.2.
With these maps of the particles on micrometer and nanometer scales, a first for hydrothermal plume systems, they found unexpected forms of iron in association with unanticipated stringy organic materials among plume particles—iron that managed to escape precipitation as an iron mineral by associating with particulate organic matter. By weight, the samples contained an average of 6.7% particulate organic carbon, which likely came from biological debris. Some of the organic carbon was in the form of polymer-like matrices that appear to be composed of lipids, polysaccharides, and proteins.
The findings are important because the organic-bound iron may be more biologically available than iron minerals and has the potential to be transported off the MOR axis as fluffy colloidal particles, although exactly how the Fe(II)-laden carbon particles might interact with the ocean food web is still to be determined. Moreover, that the observed role for organic matter for the source of reactive surfaces in hydrothermal plumes stands in stark contrast to the existing inorganic paradigm for hydrothermal plumes demonstrates how much there is still to learn about iron and carbon in the dynamic and globally widespread marine environment.

LOYSBURG - Chestnut Ridge hadn't wrestled since going 4-1 at the Dale Bock Duals in Chambersburg on Dec. 29.
So, while there might have been a little bit of rust on the Lions, they were looking forward to tangling with fellow once-beaten Northern Bedford on Tuesday before a standing room only crowd squeezed into the Panthers' small home gym.
Ridge handled the layoff and the crowd with its usual ease, and the Lions avoided bonus points by Northern's big guns from 132 to 145, a stretch that included Mason Replogle's 4-2 win over Trent Crouse, and earned a 54-9 win over the Panthers.
"I was happy with how we performed," Ridge coach Greg Lazor said. "I was a little worried about rust, but I thought they wrestled hard and moved well, so I'm pleased."
"Tuesday night, we wrestled with a lot of intensity against Bellwood [a 60-10 win], and I thought they'd bring that intensity tonight," said NBC coach Brian Dutchcot, whose team is now 8-2. "It seems we lack confidence against good teams, and it showed tonight. Give all the credit in the world to Chestnut Ridge."
The match, which started a little more than an hour after the 7 p.m. starting time because of the junior high and five JV bouts, started with a couple talented 220-pounders tangling. NBC's Eric Grace got the opening takedown of Dan Albright, but Albright notched two takedowns - the last one with 8 seconds left to win, 6-2.
"We were worried about Albright," Lazor said. "He's been under the weather for a couple days, and we were debating about whether to wrestle him or not because we know Grace is such a quality wrestler. But, he wanted to do it, and he did all right."
Pins by Austin Buttry at 285 and Aaron Burkett at 106 gave Ridge a 15-0 lead. In one of the tossup bouts, Ridge 113-pounder Blake Dunlap broke open a scoreless tie with Trey Childers with a third-period reversal. He added two nearfall points for a 4-0 win.
At 120, Jared Helsley built a 7-0 lead on Ridge's Sam Shank, but Shank made a furious comeback. He reversed and cradled Helsley for three points in the second and cradled again in the third to get the fall in 4:45. Ridge led 24-0.
After Ridge's Derrick Claar won by fall at 126, the stage was set for the anticipated bout between Replogle and Crouse. Crouse scored the opening takedown, but Replogle reversed with 15 seconds left in the first period.
Crouse rode for much of the second until Replogle reversed with 33 seconds remaining. Replogle, a bear on top, rode the talented sophomore the entire final period to get the win.
"Everybody was looking forward to that match between Crouse and Replogle," Dutchcot said. "They lived up to it, I think. It's nice to get that confidence for Mason, especially with Bedford coming in Saturday."
"It's always a good battle between the two of them," Lazor said. "To be honest, I thought we looked good on our feet. We got high twice and gave up two reversals. Replogle is a beast on top. That's no secret."
At 138, Damian Corle survived getting taken down by Colby Hillegass in the first period to win, 7-4. NBC's top-ranked Drew Gartland earned a 6-0 win at 145 over varsity newcomer Jerimiah Zimmerman, making the score 30-9.
Ridge ran the table from there, getting a third-period pin from Kyle Winegardner at 152, a decision by Conner Buttry at 160, a pin by Bradie Bollman at 170, a technical fall by top-ranked Tyler Dibert at 182 and a major decision by Brad Winegardner at 195.
While he wasn't happy with his team getting pounded, Dutchcot liked that the Panthers got a taste of the power Ridge has.
"I'd like to build my schedule around good teams like Chestnut Ridge," Dutchcot said. "That's one reason why we picked up Philipsburg last year.
"I want these kids to see what it takes to go that next level and be the team like Chestnut Ridge, where you have a chance to go on and win a district title and go on to the state dual tournament."

5 Reasons Moving Sucks (And Costs) More Than You Expect
The odds are overwhelming that if you're reading this, you're going to be moving to a new home or apartment in the next few years. So let me just tell you this now: The next time you move, you are going to get fucked. In the wallet.
When I was a kid, we moved so often that my friends thought we were nomads. In fact, until I was in my late 20s, I never spent more than a year in the same place. I liked to tell people that my mother was a trained government assassin and we were constantly on the run, but the truth is that we were just poor and got evicted a lot. On top of her being a trained government assassin.
So I can say from experience that it doesn't matter how well you plan, moving is a swim through a creek infested with money leeches, ready to attach themselves to your balls.*
*In this metaphor, your balls are where you keep your money.
#5. You Have to Relearn Which Businesses Won't Screw You
This one is true unless you're literally moving from one side of a small town to the other. You really don't stop and appreciate the level of trust you build up with the places where you do business, and how long it took to build it. But in your old stomping grounds, you knew which mechanic would fix your car without fisting you with an inflated bill for replacing parts your car doesn't even have. If you decided to go out for dinner, you knew which restaurants made sure their cooks weren't resting their naked balls on each steak before sending it out.
Fuck you, Pedro, I hope your daughter gets herpes.
Remember how long it took you to find the right doctor? Or hair stylist? Or the one bar that wouldn't kick you out when you shoved a kazoo in your ass and farted the theme to Battlestar Galactica? As you drunkenly demand everyone refer to it as Battlefart Galasstica.
Oh, and if you've got kids? How long did it take to find a freaking reliable babysitter?
Sometimes it's perfectly fine to judge a book by its cover.
I remember spending months finding one, then one day we came by to pick up our boys, and the woman was nowhere to be found. She had left her 12-year-old son in charge of multiple toddlers and infants while she went to the bar. Our kids hadn't been fed or changed all day, and some pretty bad shit went down. For months after that, we didn't trust anyone at all with our kids, and it led to my then-wife becoming an at-home mother. Which meant that we were now a single income household. It took years before we finally found another sitter who was trustworthy enough for us to use. Moving to a new town resets that entire search, from scratch.
It's like that with every service you use. That trial and error process begins, where "error" means getting screwed.
"I tried that hair stylist you suggested. Did I do something to make you mad?"
After all, you only knew your dentist was running a front for "unconscious patient rape" porn videos when you saw yourself appear in one. And no, you can't just "ask around" because every business has some customer going around telling a horror story about it.
#4. Forgetting to Update Your Address Will Cost You
Quick: make a list of every single business you have an account with. Also, every single person who needs your current address on file. I will bet everything I own, plus one nude massage, that you forgot at least five.
You'll find out when it comes time to notify absolutely everyone that your address has changed. In that first week, you find yourself calling businesses and filling out change of address forms at a dozen or more places. You cover family and friends, work, utility companies, the bank, the post office ... you remembered it all! You're the smartest man in the world!
Don't you fucking patronize me, Jimmy.
Then three weeks down the line you receive a late notice for your last month's Internet at your old place. But wait, that was set up to auto-deduct from your bank account, wasn't it? Yep. And as it turns out, you forgot to notify them of your address change, because you figured that was your old service, and there was only one last bill to pay anyway. But you did notify your bank, which in turn changed your zip code. It turns out that part of the verification process for transferring funds is matching that information at both places to prevent fraud. So, when the address that your old Internet provider had on file didn't match the one at your bank, the transfer was denied, and now you're stuck with a late fee.
And trust me, this is the fucking gift that keeps on giving. Think about the bills you don't pay monthly. I pay my car insurance once every six months. Hell, I wouldn't even remember to renew it if it weren't for the reminder that comes in the mail every half a year that says, "Hey, dipshit ... pay your goddamn insurance. Because you never know what might happen to your car." Months after moving, I was cleaning out my truck when I stumbled across the expired proof of insurance card and realized that I never received the new one when I paid my last bill. So I called them up and told them about it. Of course, they had my old address.
That didn't pan out well for the guy who moved in after I left.
They took down my new information and asked me to verify my drivers license number. Oh shit. How often do I look at my license? Apparently not often enough, because I had completely spaced getting that changed as well. There was no bill attached to it, so there was nothing to remind me it needed done. That can earn you a fine. Luckily, the police still fear me after the "hundred man slap" incident of 1994.
If you have kids, the emergency contact information at their schools need to be changed. You may not remember that one until they're frantically trying to contact you at your old number.
One little gas bomb, and they flip out.
It goes on and on. If you're a reference on someone's job application, they need to know. Hell, we had to even notify fucking World of Warcraft because when my son tried to sign on from the new house, it saw that he was playing from a new location and locked him out of his own account for "suspicious activity." I'm not kidding, shit will be coming up with this like five years later.
#3. Hidden Moving Costs Pile Up ...
Sit down and make a list of everything you think you have to pay to move to a new place. Deposit and first month's rent on the new apartment? Got it. Paying the movers? Sure. Buying a shitload of boxes? Please. Now add in some extra cash just in case.
Add all that together. Now triple it. That's what it'll actually cost you.
Sure, you budgeted for the deposit on the new place, but that was easy -- you can just pay with the deposit you get back on this one! That is, if you're lucky enough to have one of the few landlords in the world who are not either shady or outright thieves. I was lucky, but many find out that their $500 deposit has vanished because of the tack-holes they made in the wall hanging their Color Me Badd poster and a cigarette burn in the carpet that was made by a tenant who lived there in 1983.
Which was incidentally Color Me Badd.
Getting water turned on at the new place? Yeah, they'll need a deposit and a connection fee. Same for the phone, and the electricity, and the gas, and the Internet.
But maybe you're smart, and you anticipated those, too. But then starts an endless stream of nickel and dime bullshit.
Like food. You make it to the new place and start unloading all of your swords and fuck tarps, and you get hungry so you stop by the fridge. Oh, wait, that shit is completely empty. What, you thought you were going to pack up your frozen pizzas, eggs and a pot of chili and tote it all across the state (or country)? Nope, when you packed, that shit went right in the trash. So you've got one massive fucking grocery shopping trip ahead of you.
What? I was fresh out. Lay off, man.
But that has to wait until tomorrow -- no way there's time for that in the middle of move-in day. So you go out (or order a couple of pizzas, the quintessential first-night moving food). Is a friend helping you move? Human decency demands you feed his ass, and buy him beer if he's a beer drinker. Add that to your bill.
Speaking of that friend, that's all I had the last time I moved -- no movers, just our truck and the truck of the friend who offered to help. He absolutely refused any offer of compensation, knowing that some day I'd return the favor and bust him out of a Mexican jail (again). But, just before heading out, he told me he needed to stop for gas. Fuck. I hadn't thought of his gas. Obviously it's one thing to not pay him, but to give him an additional expense to take on? No way. If you let him buy his own gas, he's going to consider saving the trip and just simulating the event by strapping a dresser to his back, running on a treadmill for eight hours, and then setting a $50 bill on fire. Just like that, your gas budget doubled.
"I was actually thinking about charging you for letting you help us."
And then there's the time. For me, this was the most expensive part. The time you took off work to move, plus the time you took off to hang around the house during the 18-hour window the cable company gave you (and repeat for Internet, gas, phone, whatever else requires you to be there). If you don't have one of those fancy jobs where they give you lots of vacation time, that's money lost.
Oh, and you think you can move every piece of furniture you own without breaking anything? Think again. Especially if you bought cheap bolt-together furniture from Wal-Mart that won't go through the door unless you disassemble it. Here's a tip: that shit is made to go together once. Be ready to replace at least one piece, if not more, due to a leg getting snapped off in a door frame.
Not limited to furniture.

The hunt for the alleged killer of a Goose Creek woman is over.
According to officials, Darryl Edward Flowers has been arrested by state police in Maryland, after being pulled over
Thursday morning.
Berkeley County Sheriffs Office spokesman Dan Moon confirmed the arrest.
Flower allegdly shot 36-year-old Tammy Flowers to death, and wounded two others.
He is being charged with murder and attempted murder, Moon said.
Moon said the search included cooperation between different agencies.
It went very smoothly ... Goose Creek assisted us. (The shooting took place) on the outskirts of Goose Creek and they assisted us tremendously, Moon said.
A citizen reported a stolen SUV on Hwy. 52 yesterday, which helped the early phases of the manhunt.
Through investigation we deteremined that he was heading north, and we had a pretty good idea where, Moon said.
We issued a BOLO, and authorities all along the east coast helped. It was good cooperation among everybody.
The arrest ended a 12-hour manhunt for Flowers, who allegedly shot his estranged wife to death in Goose Creek Wednesday afternoon.
Moon said that the BCSO believed that the suspect had been heading to the northeast U.S.
Flowers was the primary suspect in the shooting.
Moon said Flowers apparently stole another car yesterday in Goose Creek and there is no known motive for the shooting.
We do know that he had lived in the house at one time, but they werent living together, Moon said.
The victim has been identified Tammy Flowers, 36, residing at 52 Elmwood Place, Goose Creek.
Also wounded were two teenage girls, BSCO officials said.
According to reports, Tammy Flowers was found around 4 p.m. outside the front door of her Elmwood Place home.
Both girls were transported to an area hospital, according to reports.
The BCSO enlisted the help of the U.S. Marshal Service in their search for Flowers.

With rumors swirling around that Star Tours will close for its anticipated upgrade shortly after Star Wars Weekends concludes, it also seems an appropriate time to tend to Muppet*Vision so that the number of unavailable attractions is mitigated.

Jenni Rivera Will Appear in Final Season of I Love Jenni
Jenni Rivera fans will get a final look at the late singing sensation-turned-reality star when her show I Love Jenni returns.
The final season on mun2 will include six episodes shot before Rivera's death in a plane crash in Nuevo Leon, Mexico, on Dec. 9, 2012.
The first episode (Sunday, 9 p.m. ET) will show Rivera co-hosting her radio show, Contacto Directo Con Jenni Rivera, with her sister Rosie as they answer questions from callers about the drama in her life.
"We also see Jenni as she prepares to attend a Latin radio awards ceremony – winning more than a few awards before heading home that night," says a statement from mun2, which airs the bilingual show that also made Rivera's family members TV stars.
"Daughter Jacqui shares the episode," the statement adds, "as we see her unveiling her new apartment to her mother for the first time. Jacqui wants to show her mom how great she, her husband and daughter Jaylah are doing, and plans a dinner in the new apartment for Jenni. Jacqui calls on her family for help in planning this first big dinner as a newlywed."
The final season of I Love Jenni will also follow her family as they grieve and come to terms with life without the singer, who sold more than 25 million albums before her shocking death.
Rivera's memoir, Unbreakable, is set to be published in both Spanish and English in July.

Last week's winter storm gave the College of Charleston baseball team a big opportunity. A couple young pitchers, some clutch defense and few big at-bats helped the Cougars make the most of that opportunity.
College of Charleston knocked off No. 17 North Carolina, 3-1, Monday to take two of three in the season-opening series in Mount Pleasant. The wins mark the highest-ranked team the Cougars have ever defeated in a weekend series.
Originally scheduled to be played in Chapel Hill, N.C., the series moved to Patriots Point because of wintry conditions. The Cougars took advantage, picking up a 7-4 win in the season opener Saturday, along with Monday's rubber match.
"I'm really proud of our guys," Cougars head coach Monte Lee said. "Our guys competed and did a nice job.
"Obviously, we hope its' a confidence booster. We didn't know what to expect out of such a young pitching staff … and I thought they did a very nice job."
Freshman right-hander Bailey Ober picked up the win Saturday in his first collegiate appearance, while sophomore lefty Eric Bauer earned the win Monday in his first collegiate start. The two combined to pitch 11 innings, allow seven hits, one earned run with five strikeouts and three walks through their two wins.
Ober entered in the fifth inning Saturday with the Cougars trailing 4-0. He retired 13 straight batters, allowing his only two hits in the ninth inning. The Cougars rang up five runs in the bottom of the sixth, including a three-run shot over the right-field wall from Brandon Glazer.
The Cougars defense set the tone Monday. In the top of the fourth, Brandon Murray started a relay from the wall in left field to throw out the runner at the plate and end the frame. In the sixth, the Cougars converted a 9-3 double play with the bases loaded to get out of the jam. UNC threatened with the bases load again in the eighth before the Cougars shut it down with a 4-6-3 double play.
"Things like that are just big," Lee said. "We were able to make some really good plays that saved us, and I was just proud of that."
Nick Pappas tied the game in the fifth with his first career hit, scoring Ryan Welke from third. Gunnar Heidt gave the Cougars the lead in the following at-bat with an RBI single to score Blake Butler. Ben Boykin added an insurance run in the eighth and freshman right-hander Hayden McCutcheon sealed the win, forcing a 3-6-3 double play and a strikeout in the ninth.
"I'll enjoy this series win for the next few hours … and get ready for Charleston Southern. It's the next game on the schedule and that's all we can worry about right now. It's a process. We have to be process oriented."
The Cougars host Charleston Southern 4 p.m. Wednesday at Patriots Point.
