The Summerville girls basketball team handed Colleton County its second loss of the season Monday.
After entering this season ranked seventh among the states Class AAAA teams, the Lady Cougars jumped out to a 12-1 start to bolster that standing. However, unranked Summerville upset Colleton 51-43 in the Region 8-AAAA opener for both teams to improve to 10-5 on the season.
We got some big time individual efforts from just about everyone tonight, on both ends of the floor, Summerville coach Matt Legare said. To beat a team like Colleton, youre going to have to get that, and fortunately we did. Hopefully that kind of effort will continue as we work to get healthy and tackle our tough region schedule.
It was the best imaginable start to region play for Summerville considering Colleton has been the Waves primary opposition in the battle for the region crown the past few seasons.
Early in the game it became evident fans were in for a treat as both teams pushed the tempo only to find themselves in a stalemate. Then the Lady Cougars forced a couple of turnovers late in the period and capitalized to take a 15-9 lead.
Summerville fought back and gained momentum late in the second period. Heather Chapman made a basket on a break and Kwanza Murray followed with a steal and layup at the other end of the floor to tie the game at 18. Rodnesha Capers then blocked a Colleton shot and on Summervilles ensuing possession Zuri Green hit a jumper for a two-point Green Wave lead. But in the closing seconds of the half, the Lady Cougars scored on a break for a 20-20 score entering the third period.
The next period was a back-and-forth battle that Summerville emerged from with a 35-33 lead. The Lady Green Wave then got buckets from Tinara Brown and Chapman to extend their advantage.
The game continued at a fast pace and with 4:20 remaining Brown hit a three-point shot to give Summerville a five-point lead. Colleton continued to battle, but Summerville never took its foot off the gas and matched the Lady Cougars production the rest of the way.
The game was tough but we just had to keep telling ourselves that we could come out on top, and we did, Brown said.
Chapman, a junior, led the Wave scorers with 16 points. Brown, Green and Murray all finished with nine points.
Colleton had two players in double digits as Briana Chisolm scored 17 points and Dayja Brown scored 10.
Summerville has its second region contest of the year on Jan. 11 when it travels to Beaufort. The Wave returns home Jan. 15 to host Bluffton.

The 6 Most Baffling Classic Rock Songs About Women
#3. "She's Always a Woman" -- Billy Joel
Pertinent Lyrics:
She can kill with a smile
She can wound with her eyes ...
She'll carelessly cut you
And laugh while you're bleeding ...
Oh, she takes care of herself
She can wait if she wants
She's ahead of her time
For the sake of this picture, I'm going to ask that you pretend that this woman just stabbed you with a kitchen knife, and now she's having a good laugh about it. If I've done my job properly, your attraction to her just went up a few points, or whatever metric you use to measure that kind of thing. I've painstakingly tinkered with her eyes and mouth to make them look as deadly as possible. The eye shadow is supposed to be reminiscent of Daryl Hannah's character in Blade Runner, who was also sexually treacherous and ahead of her time.
You may have also noticed the open jars on the table behind her. Excellent observation. You show remarkable attention to detail. Artists like me love that kind of thing. Those jars are there to indicate her ability to take care of herself. She opened all those jars without the help of a man because she is self-sufficient.
Most important, however, was inserting a reminder in the picture that she is and will always be a woman (to me), which I accomplished cleverly with boobs. They are still plenty visible, even with her arms folded. In the end, isn't that really what all women have to contend with? They are capable of stepping out of oppressive gender roles, but never out of their own breasts. It's sad, but also beautiful.
#2. "Rio" -- Duran Duran
Pertinent Lyrics:
Moving on the floor now babe you're a bird of paradise
Cherry ice cream smile I suppose it's very nice ...
Her name is Rio and she dances on the sand
Just like that river twisting through a dusty land
And when she shines she really shows you all she can
Oh Rio, Rio dance across the Rio Grande
The key to the visual representation of a Duran Duran song is capturing the same subtlety for which the band is renowned. You might look at this picture and get the flavor of a bird of paradise without really understanding why. Well, I inconspicuously modeled her hair after a bird of paradise flower. I also captured the idea of a cherry ice cream smile by adding bits of smeared cherry ice cream on her face.
Above all else, it was important for me to really capture her fluidity. Even in a still drawing, you can see her glimmering form wind and shimmer like a body of water across the sand. She is dancing. She is dancing a kind of sexy dance that girls have to practice before they look comfortable doing it. I've left it open to interpretation whether she is dancing at sunset or sunrise depending on whether it's easier for you to romanticize her as a tragic figure at the end of her relevance or a young girl discovering her womanhood. But while you're deciding, please don't forget to admire the powerful reflection of sunlight I drew in the ocean. It's pretty good.
#1. "Drops of Jupiter" -- Train
Pertinent Lyrics:
Now that she's back in the atmosphere
With drops of Jupiter in her hair, hey ...
Since the return from her stay on the moon
She listens like spring and she talks like June, hey, hey ...
Tell me, did you fall for a shooting star?
One without a permanent scar ...
And tell me, did Venus blow your mind?
Was it everything you wanted to find? ...
But tell me, did you sail across the sun?
Did you make it to the Milky Way
To see the lights all faded
And that heaven is overrated?
First of all, re-entry into the atmosphere without a spaceship is completely impractical. Even musicians should know that. Train ought to make an effort to be a little less sloppy with their metaphors. I also have no idea what "talks like June" is supposed to sound like. Bees, maybe? I wasn't sure, so I just gave the melting woman a sundress and some flowers in her burn trail to signify summer as she careens toward Earth. Frankly, I'm a little disappointed Train didn't do any homework before writing this song. It's reckless, with no consideration for logic or physics.
In fact, drawing this whole thing felt disingenuous. If you look closely, her suitcase is covered with the proof of her travels to Venus and other planets in the solar system, despite the fact that I know Venus' atmosphere is made up primarily of sulfuric acid, so it would be impossible to make novelty stickers there.
I hate to end on a sour note, but Train needs to read an issue of Scientific American before they're allowed to write any more songs. They need to get their facts straight and hope that they are never responsible for whole gaggles of young girls firing themselves into space. I'm mad just thinking about it.
You can follow Soren's one-man attack on Train's negligence via Twitter or light a few candles, start a bath and follow him on Tumblr.

pan seared venison tenderloin with blue cheese and panko over a squash, carrot, and bamboo shoot ragout.
the sweet , earthy, and salty should go well together. i make something similar without the bamboo. its really excellent! (let me type up the recipe...will edit soon.)
cut loin into desired sizes (its dense and will need some thickness to get a good med. rare)
mix crumbled blue cheese (5 oz or so) with 3/4 cup panko in a bowl
heat oven to HI broil and put a skillet on high heat with some butter and olive oil
sear off loin for about 3-4 minutes on each side (HOOOOOOT pan!)
top with the cheese and panko mix and press down a bit to firm
move steaks under broiler to about 4-5 more minutes to get a good med. rare
chop up and fry up some bacon in a sautee pan or big skillet
put diced squash in the roasting pan or skillet with olive oil over medium stovetop heat. add salt and pepper and 1/2 cup chicken stock.
bake this at 350 for about 15 minutes (dont overcook this!)
put diced carrots, bamboo shoots, tablespoon of sugar, choppen garlic, salt and pepper in a medium heat sautee pan and brown in butter and the bacon fat (3 or 4 mins should be fine.)
add 1/2 cup of chicken stock and simmer for about 10 mintues or so
add a couple of chopped big leeks (or sweet onion) with another 1/4 cup of broth and simmer another 10
put it all together and heat up over med-low heat.
you can toss in some nutmeg or brown sugar with ginger if you feel like it

-oven goes to 350
-whack the birds in half, down the middle
-take a dutch oven and heat up some olive oil and butter over medium high heat
-rub the bird parts in butter and lightly flour them. brown them in the pan and get all the surfaces seared.
-pull them off and set aside. sautee a couple of shallots (or sweet onion), chopped bacon, taragon and thyme
-deglase with a healthy shot of white wine and reduce. add a couple pinches of salt, brown sugar and pepper along with enough dark beer and chicken stock (half and half) to cover just over half way up the birds. (i also like to toss in 4 or 5 black cherries cut in half). simmer this for 2 or 3 minutes.
-put the bird back in, breast up, and cover the pot. put in the oven for about 15-20 minutes (you want it just under "bone falling off tender."
-when done, take out the bird halves and reduce the liquid on the stove. when its about half way gone, reduce the heat and add enough heavy cream to thicken the sauce (half to 3/4 cup should be plenty)
-roast 3 or 4 large sweet potatoes in a 375 degree oven for a hour
-peel and put potatoes in a bowl with 2 tbsp lemon or lime juice, 3 tbsp maple syrup, 2 tbsp brown sugar. mix well with masher or beaters. (i also really like crispy bacon pieces in this too but its not totally necessary)
-put 4 tbsp of bourbon in a saucepan and simmer for a few minutes
-toss the bourbon, a stick and a half of butter, salt and pepper into the potato mix and mix up well
-put in a dish and pop back in the 375 oven for 15 mins or so.
-top with chopped nuts (pecans or walnuts both do well)
toss asparagus with a light coat of olive oil and sprinkle with coarse salt. grill (or dry pan fry) enough to get some good char
put a good helping of the potatoes on a plate. cross over a few stalks of asparagus. on top of this put your desired amount of bird. top with cream sauce. EAT!!

Ground venison jerky
Anyone make jerky out of ground meat? I have a PILE of ground venison and was thinking of making a batch of jerky out of some of it. I saw a relatively inexpensive jerky gun at the store the other day, so I might pick that up and give it a try. How do you season/prepare it so that turns out right? Any good recipes to try?

For just cooking plain ol pan fried deer steak, I like to pound it out to tenderize, then put in a bowl of milk. I only put it in the milk to help the flour stick better. Then mix dry ranch seasoning with flour, salt and pepper and pan fry. DON'T OVERCOOK. Overcooked venison is the worst.

I've never been able to cook a venison or wild hog roast in a traditional oven setting; the meat is too lean and no matter how much soaking or marinating the strong wild and gamey taste is always there. So I use a Crockpot to cook it as long as necessary.
I start off by putting the roast into a base of beef broth that I season with salt, pepper, cajun spices, etc. that I let sit and stew for 4-6 hours, the beef broth leeches the game flavor out of the meat. Some of you also flavor your meat with bourbon, whiskey, etc. The next step is to determine if the meat can be pulled of the bone easily. If it can be then I add 1-2 bottles of Caribbean Jerk seasoning to give it my preferred flavor. Any kind of special flavoring sauce can be used(barbecue, teriyaki, etc.) it's based on what you want the meat to taste like.
After I add the Jerk sauce I'll let it cook for another 2-3 hours to completely absorb the flavor. When it's done it doesn't retain any of the gamey flavor that turns people off to eating it plus the moisture is retained in the meat. It's best to cook it one day before eaten as I've found that the longer it sits in the jerk sauce the more flavorful the meat becomes.
Where excellence is possible, good is not enough.

I may be a noob hunter, but I've been cooking for 23 years.
Awesome duck recipe.
1 whole duck.
Clementine oranges
4 cups of boiling water
Wash the duck well, pour boiling water on top of duck to Titan the skin.
Drain duck cavity and dry with paper towel.
Use semi course kosher salt and course ground pepper season well
Slice oranges use the caps for juice, squeeze caps of oranges into the cavity then stuff all oranges into the duck cavity, do not wet skin or it will not crisp.
Per heat oven to 425 F place in center rack and bake for 45 mins breast up. After 45 mins flip bird breast down, 45 mins more, flip duck again to breast up and cook again for the third and last 45 min time.
Once done, let rest for 10-20 minutes and enjoy,

Deer roast
Trim roast
Brine for 24hrs
My brine recipe was 1/4 cup salt and sugar, paprika, onion powder, garlic powder, cayenne pepper, 1/4 cup jack Daniels, blues hog BBQ sauce and water.
Smoke until internal temp hits 135-140.
Pull off wrap in foil and let it rest for 10-15 minutes.
Slice and serve.
Best deer I have ever had.
Also I am sure this has been done a million times but last weekend I grilled some bacon wrapped dove breast. I put some brown sugar on the bacon and basted them with maple syrup while grilling. Tasted amazing.

Homemade Breakfast Sausage
2 ½ #'s Pork or 2 Lbs Pork and ½ Lb bacon
3-4 tablespoons olive oil
2 teaspoons salt
1 ½ teaspoons black pepper
1 tablespoon fennel
2 teaspoons sage
2 teaspoons thyme
½ teaspoon rosemary leaves (finely chopped)
2 tablespoon brown sugar
½ teaspoon nutmeg
½ teaspoon cayenne pepper
½ teaspoon red pepper flakes
I use scraps left over when I cut up a feral hog. Generally I just take the leg quarters and backstraps, but if it's a somewhat large hog (>100Lbs) I'll also skin off the meat outside the ribs and save it specifically for sausage. I freeze the meat in zip lock bags, and when I'm ready to make sausage I put them in the refrigerator to partially thaw. When grinding meat it should be firm, almost frozen.
I grind the meat using a fine plate, and then add the spices. I mix them in thoroughly by hand, and then run it through the grinder again.
Wild hogs are pretty lean, and even with the added oil it's sometimes necessary to lightly grease the pan to prevent the meat from burning. I typically at least spray the pan with cooking spray. I haven't actually tried adding the bacon, that might help.

Ok time to add just a few more recipies one upland game bird and waterfowl.
First recipe will be dove very simple.
Take the desired amount of dove breast bone included and clean them up
next take a package of bacon and cut it in half.
Take your strips of bacon and wrap them around your dove breats secure them in place with a tooth pick.
throw them on the grill and cook until done (normally about five minutes depending on your grill)
Next recipe can be used on any waterfowl i made this with duck though.
You will need the following:
Orange juice
McCormick's maple grill seasoning
zip lock bag 1qt or 1gl your choice.
Marinade injector
and breasted out duck or goose
Take the breast and put them on a metal tray (preffered for strength)
take your oj and seasoning and mix them together about a 1/4 cup of seasoning for every 3 cups of oj. it all depends on your flavor preference.
next take your injector and fill your breasts with the juices. some of the seasoning will get stuck in the needle for injector. just draw back and try again.
Once you have injected all of of your breasts with the marinade place them in the appropriate zip lock bag and squeeze out all of the air. Place in the fridge for 24 hours.
lastly fire up the grill and through them on. Cook to your preference and enjoy.
Final recipe. I made this one using canada goose breasts.
You will need
Italian dressing not creamy or low fat just regular italian.
1qt or 1gl zip lock bag again
breasted out meat
a sharp knife and cutting board
Take your breast and cut them into thin strips abot 1/4" thick at an angle across the breast
once all your meat is cut up throw it all in the bag
cover the meat with italian dressing and seal the bag removing as much air as possible.
place in the fridge for 24-72 hours.
when you are ready to cook take aluminum foil and make a tray with side on it the size of your grill top. Place all the strips onto your grill and monitor carefully. Be sure to flip for even cooking.
Win or lose I will never give up my guns.

Likely known around here but I managed to find it myself in the quest for the Venison recipe.
McCorrmicks Mesquite Marinade! For roasts I'll go by directions and marinade over night, flipping in a bag every once in a while. For steaks just shake a little on mix in a bowl for full coverage, if frying coat pan with non-stick, grilling is better over Mesquite wood.

Possum & sweet potatos
Recipe: roast possum
1 large possum, skinned, dressed, and washed
1 3 cans of beer
1 oz whiskey
4 Tbs Tabasco sauce
2 Tbs Worcestershire sauce
1 1/2 Tbs salt
2 onions, chopped
1 clove garlic, minced
4 sweet potatos
2 ribs celery, chopped
1/2 lb bacon
Mix the beer, whiskey, salt, Tabasco sauce, and Worcestershire sauce together. Place possum in a large roasting pan. Drape with bacon. Sprinkle the celery, onions, and the garlic all over the possum. Pour the liquid mixture over the possum as well. Cover and refrigerate overnight.
Preheat oven to 350F. Place the sweet potatoes around the possum. Bake covered for 1 1/2 hours. Baste once or twice with the marinade from the pan as the possum cooks.
We're not supposed to trust them. We're supposed to hold them accountable.
Still, they must be good for something, or we wouldn't need them, right? right?

Southern recipe (southern france) for braised squirrel (esquirel) or rabbit (lapin) in merlot.
Soak under refrigeration, the carcasses overnight in a brine of 1 gallon of water, 1 cup of vinegar and a couple of table spoons of kosher or canning salt.
Dry the carcasses, rub with olive oil, place in a pan over cubed carrots onions and celery with a couple of black peppers and garlic cloves. Place in a 450 oven for 20 minutes or until meat and vegetables start to brown. Add one bottle of red wine and cover the rest of the way with chicken broth.
Tightly cover pan with foil, return to 350 oven for 3 hours.
Remove meat, strain liquid left in pan. Place strained liquid in a sauce pan and cook over high fire until 50% reduced. Add a table spoon of flour and whisk to thicken. Left over sauce will refrigerate for up to a week or freeze for a couple of months.
Plate the meat with rice or new potatoes and spoon sauce over meat and starch. Add vegetable and serve.
Ideal wine pairing, for me, is Pabst Blue Ribbon. Nice nose and nice aroma.
Then the Frenchman said "Ce cou rouge est fou et sauvage".

As far as the ground meat murky I do it all the time just remember it will hold the liquid you marinade in so use as much dry ingredients as possible

Deer Roll ups
Take the back strap from a deer ( young one I prefer) Thinly slice about 1/4" thick. If older more mature deer you may want to tenderize it with a meat beater.
Open beer take sip.
Prep grill and lite the charcoal.
Season deer meat how you like your it, i like seasonal salt, and fresh pepper and garlic powder.
Take a pound of package bacon and cut in half, giving you 4"-6" strips of bacon.
Take another sip of beer.
Lay strips of bacon out on cutting board
Place 1 piece of back strap to one end of the bacon strip, centered of deer meat.
Take a butter knife and spread a thin layer of philly cream cheese onto the the deer meat.
Open another beer. Take a sip
Take a round jalapeno slice or slices depends on how much you like the jalapenos, i cut the seeds out (no heat just flaver) and i cut the side of the jalapeno circle so it gives me a strip. Lay strips across meat and in the philly cream cheese,
Take another sip of beer.
Proceed to grab edge of bacon and deer meat and roll. Not to tight that you squeeze everything out the sides, just tight enough to keep it all together. Roll the deer meat/bacon up and stick a tooth pick all the way through. I like to to try and keep tooth picks even on both sides, it aids in flipping them later.
Spread coals, and take another sip of beer.
Heat grill and finish cleaning grill.
Brush a lite coat of olive oil on to grill .
Place these little jewels all over the grill and cook to how you prefer, i don't over cook.
Open another beer take a sip.
DO NOT LEAVE GRILL or the deer roll ups will disappear, Aliens watch from above and just when they are getting done they start disappearing from the grill if left unattended. So you might wanna put a spare beer in your pocket before you start just in case.
I use open tongs to catch the tooth picks on both sides of the meat for moving to and fro of the hot spots.
Finish beer and enjoy.

Nicollette Sheridan alleges the show's creator hit her in the face on the set and that she was then fired in retaliation for complaining about him, "resulting in her losing millions in future earnings," says the suit filed Monday in Los Angeles Superior Court.
Sheridan, whose character was killed off the show last year, is suing for $20 million, alleging assault and battery, gender violence and wrongful termination. She claims series creator Marc Cherry created a hostile work environment, "behaving in an extremely abusive and aggressive manner."
Sheridan, a Golden Globe nominee who played sexy Realtor Edie Britt, claims that Cherry directed his abuse at other cast and crew members, even at star Teri Hatcher after she went above his head to ABC executives.
"I hope Teri Hatcher gets hit by a car and dies," Cherry told Sheridan, according to the lawsuit.
Without MeritABC Studios says in a statement: "While we have yet to see the actual complaint, we investigated similar claims made by Ms. Sheridan last year and found them to be without merit."
Sheridan, whose contract called for her to earn $175,000 an episode going up to $250,000 in later years, claimed that in the summer of 2008 she tried to meet privately with Cherry "in an effort to discuss his negative demeanor toward her and to discuss whether he had a problem with her work," the lawsuit says.
Cherry told her he didn't have a problem with her and apologized, only to lash out at her again, behaving in a "rude and degrading manner," leading up to a clash on the set during a Sept. 24, 2008, rehearsal, the lawsuit claims.
"When Sheridan questioned Cherry about something that was in the script, Cherry took her aside and forcefully hit her with his hand across her face and head," the lawsuit says.
Begging ForgivenessA humiliated Sheridan yelled back, "You just hit me in the head. That is not okay. THAT IS NOT OKAY!" according to the lawsuit.
Cherry went to her trailer to "beg forgiveness," the lawsuit says, but after Sheridan reported him to ABC, his behavior allegedly worsened. She was informed in February 2009 that her character was being written off the show and she was being fired, according to the lawsuit.
"The decision to kill off Sheridan's character demonstrates that Cherry and ABC intended to and did retaliate against Sheridan for her complaints about Cherry," the lawsuit says. The lawsuit notes that although some of the male characters were killed off the show, "none of the female characters had ever before been killed off or written out of the show."
The lawsuit was first reported by TMZ.

Yes I know that skaters need to be invited to most events but just for fun take a moment and pick a few favorites and select the GP assignments you'd like to see them at next season. Feel free to tell us why
Here is mine:
Lipnitskaya:NHK(Japan) and Trophée Éric Bompard(France)
The girl worked her butt off and deserves fairly easy assingments as much as anyone. She will be well recieved especially in Japan where her second largest fanbase exists. She could easily podium and likely win both and with all the backbreaking work she did for Russia it's hard for me to not wish a fairly easy season for her. Although her popularity in Russia is thru the roof and many might be disappointed it would be beneficial to leave her out of the Russian bloodbath at least until Nationals.
Radinova: CoR(Russia) Skate America (USA)
It's likely going to be a podium sweep in Russia so I'd like to see her battle it out with Sotnikova and Pogo. She bodes well at home and I think could win the whole thing which would be great for her growing status. Maybe just the devil inside is telling me to send her to Skate America but I'd like to see her challenge Gracie and I think it would make for a good competition.
Ashley Wagner: NHK(Japan) Skate America (USA)
Same as Yulia. She is loved in Japan and I think that love is contagious to her and it affects her skating. If she can latch on to the crowd's wavelength I think she would really shine. If Yulia selects NHK first she will likely be the top competitor in terms of rankings and favorites amongst judges but if she falls again Ashley could pounce and grab gold. Silver would be a likely bet if things happen the way I expect in terms of the field. Obviously Skate America for her. I think her and Gracie need a rematch from Nationals. It would be good for the US figure skating to see a little competition at home. It has benefitted Russia tremendously.
I was going to choose for some of the Men but due to time constraints I'll have to check back later. Where do you want to see your favorite skaters compete next season?

Nathan Loudenslager, of St. John's Lutheran Church in Lewistown, will portray Martin Luther during the 23rd annual Reformation Recital set for Oct. 27 at the church.
Luther nailed 95 theses on the door of Castle Church, in Germany, in protest of the Roman Caholic Church's sale of indulgences.
Resistance to Luther's act sparked the reformation that led to the birth of the Protestant church, said Scott Price, publicity chairman.
The recital also will highlight musical talent from around the Juniata Valley.
John Carpenter, a senior at Penn State University, will play baritone. Patty Loundenslager, the director of music at St. John's, said Carpenter is a seasoned performer. This summer, he sang with the Cincinnati Opera Chorus. He also has been studying voice for several years and has participated in past Messiah performances and other various concerts in Lewistown.
Other featured musicians include piano by Joan Loewen, piano and piano/organ duets by Nellie Wilson, Lynn Phillips and Terri Limes with Patty Loudenslager, guitar/vocal by Mike Bratt and Rich Burns, a flute duet by Penni Abram and Jerry Stone, handbells and flute by Peter Marsh and Jerry Stone, harp and cello by Emily and Travis Theil, bass guitar by Casey Damicantonio and the St. John's Brass Quartet, featuring Josie Baughman and Tracy Loucks on trumpet, Nancy Machmer on French Horn and Terri Limes on the euphonium.
Vocalists will include: the Celeste Choir, featuring Kylee and Reese Cubbison, Nevin Farley, Ava Kelly, Mina Phillips, Evan and Noah Shepherd, Karen and Korey Treaster and Lilian and Selena Ulsh; and St. John's Youth Praise and Worship Band, featuring Sarah Farley, Lydia Hidlay, Briah Kling, Katie LaMarca, Kaitlyn Treaster, and Alicia and Malarie Yoder.
The recital also will feature In Joy, an a capella group from First United Methodist Church in Lewistown. Vocalists include Pauli Belfiore, Bruce and Laura Buffington, Rich Burns, Cassie Campbell, Gayle Case, Chris Ferencz, Beth Knepp and Candy Zimmerman.

I'm pretty damn hyped for Borderlands. I hate to fall for it, but I have, so it has become a day one purchase. I just wanted to gauge interest of the DToid community. It would be nice to have an idea who's going to get it and on what platforms. I searched for a thread, but didn't see anything so I figured I'd make one. So something along the lines of this would be nice.

ATTICA - If you were looking for drama in Thursday night's Division III district semifinals, you'd have been disappointed.
Upper Sandusky and Mohawk eased through their respective opponents in three games, setting up a 3 p.m. Saturday clash for the district championship here.
Upper Sandusky, ranked sixth in Division III, was charged with taking down the team right ahead of it: No. 5 Huron.
Article Photos
But the Rams didn't have much trouble with the Tigers. Behind Taylor Graboski's nine kills in the first game, Upper Sandusky took control right away and wasn't challenged until the third game. It downed Huron 25-21, 25-15, 25-18.
"I don't think it was an individual effort, I think it was a whole team effort," Graboski said of her strong Game 1. "Everyone behind us, our blocking was great, our defense was picking up everything. It was just a great team effort that set the tone."
Graboski finished the match with 17 kills. But after the first game, the scoring was spread out.
Which is just how Upper Sandusky coach Matthew McConnaughey wanted it.
"One thing we wanted to do was, we wanted to establish Taylor so their block would commit," McConnaughey said. "Once that started to happen, then you saw, like, Kalene [Johnson], my outside hitter, and Jessi [Holly]... people would be 1-on-1 or 1-on-none. That's what we were trying to do, is split their block."
But the Rams really took control of the match in the second game, when Upper Sandusky, already leading 7-4, went on an 11-0 run. Emma Smith served during the stretch, picking up an ace and keeping the Tigers off balance with her serves.
"Emma had two runs with her floater serves, and that was huge," McConnaughey said. "Most kids that play volleyball now, especially that play club, see only top-spin serves, or mostly, more like a jump-float, which is different than what Emma does. Emma stands and does a hard floater, and my girls will even say - I have a kid who's a JV kid that I have serve at them - that's a harder serve. They don't want that. They'd rather have a 6-2 girl do a jump serve and crush it at them than have to figure out where that floater's gonna go."
Huron coach Don Wood said Smith gave his team problems.
"We played a couple of balls that were long, and it seemed like every time after that happened, she ran a couple more points," Wood said. "So yeah, it was effective. That floater really played games with our serve-receive."
Huron rebounded after the first two games to take a lead for much of the third. At one point in Game 3, the Tigers led 15-11.
But then Johnson took over, lining four kills in a 6-2 run that knotted the game at 17. Holly killed the next point to give the Rams a lead, one they didn't relinquish.
"Huron is a very good team, but I feel like we just outplayed them today," McConnaughey said.
In the night's second match, Mohawk proved too much for Margaretta, which came into play with a 10-13 record. Mohawk won 25-21, 25-15, 25-17.
The Warriors (21-3) built a 19-7 lead in the opener after a Julie Adelsperger kill, then watched as Margaretta went on a 10-1 run.
But Mohawk responded with back-to-back kills from Sheyanne Wilhelm and Kasey Adelsperger to make it 22-17. Margaretta made it 23-21 on a Kasey Parkhurst ace, but Mohawk clinched the game on kills by Clara and Julie Adelsperger.
Margaretta coach Sara Sage said her team's late run in the first game made her hopeful.
"I thought after we had the momentum going, it was going to continue into the second [game], the third, the fourth and so on," she said.
It didn't.
"That was very important," Mohawk coach Eric Hoover said. "We let them get confidence, we let them get a little momentum because we didn't finish strong in the first set. We had to go out early and get on them."
The second game was close until the Warriors, up 13-11, went on a 12-3 run to put it away.
In the third game, Mohawk recovered from a 4-0 deficit and took a 15-14 lead on an Aubrie Flood kill. The Warriors still could not shake the Polar Bears until a final surge in which they scored six of seven points to advance.
"I think we kind of realized this could be it," Kasey Adelsperger said. "I think we put it all out there tonight, and that really helped us."
She certainly did that, with 17 kills. Julie Adelsperger lined 12.
Mohawk opened its regular season with the Rams on Aug. 25, losing in three games.
Kasey Adelsperger said Mohawk would be prepared for the rematch.
"Upper, they have a lot of big blocks, which also means they should have a lot of holes out there," she said. "We have to play smart and be creative with what we do and not just pound it, because we know they could possibly block it, and that's not going to be good."

A 19-year-old man from Friendship in Cattaraugus County was sentenced Tuesday to six months in jail for a burglary in Portville, and two other men were placed on probation in separate burglary cases.
Cattaraugus County Court Judge Ronald D. Ploetz sentenced Alexander J. Hope to the six-month jail term and up to five years probation and ordered him to make restitution for a burglary worth thousdands of dollars at a Portville business last June 9. Convicted of third-degree attempted burglary in the case, Hope is being held in the Cattaraugus County Jail.
In another burglary case, Ploetz ordered Kyle S. King, 22, of Gowanda, to pay a $1,000 fine and serve five years of probation on his conviction on charges of burglary and criminal mischief for breaking into a Town of Persia bar twice on Jan. 12, 2012, first at about 12:30 a.m. and again about 6:30 a.m. when he was arrested in the bar by a town police officer on routine patrol.
Arturo D. Ross, Sr., 40, of Olean, was sentenced to five years of probation and ordered to make restitution for his third-degree burglary conviction for a break-in last Aug. 3 at an Olean business.
In other court action on Tuesday:
• Billie J. Damerst, 38, of Allentown, waived grand jury action and pleaded guilty to second-degree forgery and petit larceny for altering a check made out to another person that she tried to cash last May 24 in the Town of Carrollton. She faces sentencing June 17.
• Joseph M. Phillips, 23, of Olean, waived indictment and pleaded guilty to attempted fourth-degree grand larceny for attempting to steal property worth more than $1,000 from a Town of Allegany business last Oct. 28. He faces sentencing May 6 on that charge and for a probation violation because he was on probation for an earlier incident then, according to District Attorney Lori Pettit Rieman.

Ravi Shankar
Share This
Rabindra Shankar Chowdery
, aka
Ravi Shankar
, was born on April 7, 1920, in Varanasi, India, into a well-off orthodox Brahmin family. His father, ShyÆm Shankar, was employed as a diwan (minister) by the Maharajah of Jhalawar. By the age of 13,
Ravi Shankar
was going along on every tour of his brother
Uday Shankar
's Compaigne de Danse et Musique Hindou (Company of Hindu Dance and Music). At the All-Bengali Music Conference in December 1934, he met the multi-instrumentalist
Allauddin Khan
. Precisely when
Allauddin Khan
was born is uncertain. People hazard dates in the 1860s around 1862, but in later years he himself gave his age haphazardly. He would transform many musicians' lives, but he had an incalculable effect on
Ali Akbar
(his son),
Annapurna Devi
(his daughter), and
Allauddin Khan
's troupe as its principal soloist around 1935-1936.
In 1938,
gave up a potential career as a dancer and went to study with
Allauddin Khan
in Maihar. In 1939, he began giving public recitals and came out of training at the end of 1944. Until 1948, he based himself in Bombay and gave programs all over India. He toured and wrote for films and ballet. Around this time he began his recording career with a small session for HMV (India). Work for All India Radio followed, as music director from February 1949 to January 1956 in New Delhi. Concurrently, his international star was on the rise. In 1954, he performed in the Soviet Union. In 1956, he played his debut solo concerts in Western Europe and the U.S. Within a decade he would be the most famous Indian musician on the planet. Within two decades he became probably the most famous Indian alive. His English-language autobiography,
My Music, My Life
(1969), is still one of the best general introductions to Hindustani music. It would be hard to over-estimate his influence in late 20th century Western music. His disciples included George Harrison and Philip Glass.
was not one-dimensional. Apart from pursuing a career as a classical performer, he also experimented outside this field. For this reason he has attracted criticism from purists. Some of this, especially during the
era, undoubtedly had an element of jealousy to it, and some was certainly warranted, because
did take many chances. In fact, that was one of the things that kept his music exciting. To use a cricketing image -- baseball would be wholly inappropriate --
's batting average remained high throughout a long and illustrious career. In later life, he spent a great deal of time in the U.S. at his home in California, and continued to give spellbinding live performances well into the new century. However, his final concert took place in Bangalore, southwest India, in February 2012, where he shared the stage with his daughter, Anoushka. Sadly, following a long period of ill health,
passed away at a San Diego hospital on December 11, 2012, aged 92. A pair of albums appeared later that year, Living Room Sessions: Part 1 and a performance of Shankar's only symphony composition, simply called Symphony, done by the London Philharmonic Orchestra with David Murphy.

From IP network to broadcast network: Understanding the new media landscape | Opensource.com
From IP network to broadcast network: Understanding the new media landscape
So, how does an unknown anthropology professor from Kansas make a home movie on a "cheap computer" in his basement that beats out all the $3.6 million Super Bowl ads and transforms him into a Web 2.0 rock star? This story begins and ends with the free and open user-generated media-scape.
Michael Wesch is practically a household name these days--at least for those who explore the impact of emerging technology and media on business and society. His YouTube video The Machine is Us/ing Us has garnered almost 11 million views since its release on January 31, 2007.
I use a follow-up video (see below) in the classes I teach because Dr. Wesch does an excellent job of describing how the various components of this evolving media-scape coalesced around his video to propel it to the top of the YouTube charts during Super Bowl weekend.
In his address Wesch describes how web services such as Digg, Del.icio.us, RSS, blogs, Technorati, Facebook, and MySpace have created an open and free user-generated alternative to the traditional broadcast media channels. He further argues that the collective tuning and syncopation of this open and free network by its users is what propelled his oeuvre ahead of the multi-million dollar commercials from the likes of Bud Light and Doritos on Super Bowl Sunday.
In essence, Wesch's experience with his video allowed him to understand firsthand that the IP Network had become an alternative to the Broadcast Network. YouTube is essentially a platform that provides a user-generated alternative to enterprise studio and broadcast approaches for media access and distribution. Each day about 9,000 hours of video content is uploaded to YouTube.
To put this in context, aggregating all the programming of the three primary networks (ABC, NBC, and CBS) for the past sixty years would result in a total of 1.5 million hours of video programming. Those 1.5 million hours are equivalent to less than 6 months of the content submitted to YouTube.
With the arrival of Web 2.0 technologies that enable users to share, participate, and collaborate in the co-creation and distribution of their own media, the Media and Entertainment industry is being challenged on multiple fronts as it seeks to redefine its structure and business models to address the threat of user-generated content creation and distribution.
The web may be us/ing us, but there are certainly many of us using Creative Commons licenses to open up the web as a platform for new forms of creative expression and wealth creation.
What opportunities and threats does this new free and open user-generated media-scape present to your industry and your enterprise. And how might it change the way you will live, work, and learn in the future?

I understand the enthusiasm for the latest "new media", but am skeptical of the underlying premise -- at least as far as I'm even sure I understand it. I watched the Wesch us/ing Web 2.0 video and came away thinking that the gentleman is substituting excitement about technology for knowledge of history.
The premise I took from the video is that technologies like XML and their application on the Web are allowing us to separate form and content. If he'd stopped at adding "in new and exciting ways", I'd be with him. The kicker was the text stream at the end underlining all things (love, family, commerce, whatever) that we have to reinterpret.
No kidding, really? Technology and social change are linked? You don't say. I'd submit that the evolution of technology and its impact on communication is not something that XML or HTML or even the printing press initially caused, it's something that these developments have accelerated. Knowledge has been spreading itself outwards, sometimes imperceptibly slowly, since stone tablets and papyrus were battling for mind-share among temple scribes. What's different today is the velocity of the change, not the vector.
I read into the video an underlying assumption that the printed or written word is static and moldy compared to its vastly more flexible digital cousin. This is pretentious, and I think in a long view, it's also wrong because, ironically, it confuses message and medium. The power is still in the idea and what people do with it, not necessarily how it's disseminated.

OK, so what? Isn't that self-evident? A million people with camcorders can produce way more footage than a few thousand with studios. It's not context, it's a statistic. That figure does represent a democratization of the output and publishing of ideas, but what that really means for us as a society is too early to tell. The printing press was significant not because you got a better Bible, but because of the impact over centuries of the increased literacy that it enabled. Isn't it a bit early to call Web 2.0 its equal?
The real implication here to me is self-worship. "Hey look, I can put an hour of video up as easily as some schmuck from XYZ-TV." Uh, ok. I can too, but that doesn't mean anyone wants to hear what I have to say. The saying that the "media is the message" invites narcissism. I'm enlightening the universe 140 letters at a time! I made a Lolcat poster! I'm blogging, Mom! My ideas are better that yours because I used social websites to put them out in XML! My content and my substance are separate! Great, but what do those things have to offer anyone other than you?
Am I wrong? Am I reading too much/too little into this? Welcome other thoughts.
I think the future for the mass media types (TV, publications, etc.) is to curate the user generated content. With the massive amounts of blogs, wiki content, videos, and everything else, I think the business model will shift from "being the authority" to "being a trusted curator." There is so much potential for user-generated content, but it's on overload. Some of it's poorly written, some of it's audience specific--just for family, just for friends, or just for co-workers. The companies that can tap into their user-generated content and curate it, improve it, and distribute it for their audience are the ones who will change the game.
I believe the new digital technology available to the general non-expert media user, or the little guy, allows for more personal messages and points of view that the more powerful elite and the more politically inclined users can use to their benefit in a more people serving mode, or people destructive mode...that is where the danger lies.
In order to be in politics or maintain a high seat within a large corporation structure, one has to be aware of his adversaries and his beneficiaries, and be able to disable the former and reward the latter. What is unfortunate, it is the little guy that is usually the adversary, and not the beneficiary. So overall, the elite and the politicians who work closely with the elite, will more than likely choose the path of the people destructive mode after viewing the little guys digital messages.
So the new digital medium of expression might be a nice release valve to allow the little guy a way to release steam, but the little guy will always be pressured by the elite and their political counterparts to stay inside his little box world, otherwise the elite will no longer be able to afford the vastness of golf landscapes, a room in the local yacht club marinas for their yacht, if the little guy starts becoming a bigger guy, with more control over his political representation, and if he is allowed to build a bigger box.
So allowing the little guy the technology for self-expression is a two-way sword, and we know how destructive a two sword could be, swinging both directions.
However, let's assume the elite and the politicians choose the people serving mode after watching the little guy's digital messages as it expresses his true human feelings and thoughts generated by his local environment, which would benefit the overall well being of everyone and the world overall...but by judging how little kids love to share their toys, I have a feeling that would be wishful thinking.
First there was the message: A cultural anthropologist's view of Web 2.0.
The message was conveyed via a medium: Digital video. (We won't deconstruct the communication styles used in the video medium.)
The video is made using tools that depend greatly on the Web 2.0 medium and the legal underpinnings of part of it (the GPL and similar licences for the software, and the Creative Commons license for the music).
Next, the video (a message in a medium) is released: Once on YouTube, it becomes part of the Web 2.0 medium.
The Web 2.0 medium (really, the users thereof) "process" the video in the very ways described or illustrated in the video.
The message was the medium was the message.
Is it self-referential, or iterative, or a change of scope (a meta-reference)?
Is it a meta-medium, or a meta-message, or both?

A just-retired Buffalo homicide detective who investigated the death of Amanda Wienckowski is breaking his silence about the troubling case of the young woman whose frozen body was found stuffed inside a garbage tote in 2009, revealing publicly for the first time that he and fellow investigators never agreed with the Erie County Medical Examiner's determination that Wienckowski died of a drug overdose.
They believed the most likely scenario was that a large person accidentally choked the petite, 20-year-old Kenmore woman during a paid sexual encounter, retired Buffalo Homicide Detective Mark J. Lauber said.
Previously, Lauber had not been allowed to speak to reporters because of Buffalo Police Department policy.
But now that he has retired, he talked to The Buffalo News to clear up "misinformation" about the case and to show that police thoroughly investigated the case.
"We realized right away the cause of death was not from a lethal amount of opiates for someone who used heroin every day," Lauber said.
On Jan. 9, 2009, Wienckowski's body was discovered naked and upside down in a garbage tote across the street from the residence of Antoine J. Garner, where she had gone to provide sexual services.
Though not charged in her death, the 300-or-more pound Garner has been identified as the last person to see her alive and as a person of interest in her death.
But the cause of Wienckowski's death has been a matter of contention ever since the county medical examiner ruled she died of a drug overdose.
The detectives disagreed with that conclusion.
"So we called the medical examiner's toxicologist, and he agreed with us but said they could not find another cause of death and went ahead and listed it as an accidental drug overdose," Lauber said.
The detectives didn't believe there was enough heroin in her system to cause an overdose.
Since the medical examiner's report was issued in 2009, at least three other pathologists also have issued reports.
Wienckowski's family sought the assistance of attorney Steven M. Cohen of the Amherst law firm Hogan Willig and had a second autopsy done by a West Coast pathologist who concluded that Wienckowski's cause of death was strangulation.
But Lauber said he and the other detectives on the Homicide Squad weren't sure about that conclusion either.
The detectives' opinion that there were not enough drugs in her blood to cause death supports a medical opinion released late last month at a Buffalo Common Council meeting. Albany-area pathologist Michael Sikirica determined that the amount of opiates in Wienckowski's system was "a relatively innocuous level."
Sikirica sided with the results of the second autopsy – conducted at the request of the family – that determined the cause of death was strangulation.
Cohen sought assistance from Sikirica on behalf of Wienckowski's family, which has been trying to get the county medical examiner to amend the cause of death to homicide.
"The Buffalo police have always maintained this was a homicide," Cohen said. "Whether it's murder or manslaughter is a question for a jury to decide, but the medical examiner's findings prevent District Attorney Frank Sedita from prosecuting the case because the listed cause of death creates reasonable doubt."
Lauber, in challenging the medical examiner's determination, said he and other detectives assigned to the case were told by a county toxicologist that the accidental overdose was selected as the cause of Wienckowski's death because they could not find any other explanation. The "logical" way to handle the cause of death, Lauber said, would be to list it as "undetermined." The former detective pointed out that yet another pathologist, Scott F. LaPoint, hired by Sedita last year, issued an opinion that the cause of death should be undetermined.
Sedita sought the outside, expert opinion because of the two conflicting autopsies. The case seemed puzzling right from the beginning, Lauber said.
When the Homicide Squad requested a copy of the county autopsy report in 2009, he was told a written request would have to be submitted. That was a first, he said.
Even more puzzling, he recalled, was that when the county report arrived, it was signed by four pathologists in the Medical Examiner's Office.
In the past, the only pathologist to sign an autopsy report was the pathologist who conducted the autopsy, said Lauber, who worked 11 years as a homicide detective and frequently attended autopsies.
Cohen also noted that it was odd for four pathologists to sign an autopsy report. But a county spokesman for the medical examiner disagreed, saying many autopsy reports are signed by more than one pathologist.
Lauber said he and the other detectives believe that Wienckowski died during rough sex and dismisses the strangulation ruling. Pressure marks found on Wienckowski's neck and internal neck injuries, he said, could have occurred when her body was shoved down into the garbage tote.
As for what appear to be defensive wounds on her arm, he said, those also could have occurred when her body was being discarded.
Marks on Wienckowski's face by her jawline, he said, were caused by a large earring she was wearing that ended up pressed against her flesh.
Lauber interviewed Garner for two hours, just hours after Wienckowski's body was found in a garbage tote across the street from his home on Jan. 9, 2009, outside a church at Spring and Clinton streets. The garbage tote previously had been reported stolen by one of Garner's neighbors.
Garner told detectives that Wienckowski arrived at his house Dec. 5, 2008, after he had called her for paid sex in response to an advertisement, Lauber said. That part of the story detectives do not dispute.
But detectives were skeptical of Garner's claim that she left the home that evening.
Lauber and other police officials say they believe positional asphyxiation killed Wienckowski while she was having sex. They believe Wienckowski was grabbed from behind and an arm was placed against or around her neck while her assailant's full weight pressed against the slight woman.
"There were opiates in her system and that could slow her heartbeat, and with his arm on her neck, there was some compression to her throat," Lauber said of the factors that detectives believed caused Wienckowski's death. But, he added, he does not believe her death should result in a charge of second-degree murder.
"We don't believe this was a classic depraved indifference to life, which is the definition of second-degree murder," Lauber said. He said a lesser charge of criminally negligent homicide or second-degree manslaughter might be more appropriate.
Garner has repeatedly denied that Wienckowski died in his presence.
But Lauber said police remain suspicious because of other occurrences. Among them:
• Garner last week was convicted in Erie County Court of choking and assaulting a prostitute during a paid sexual encounter. He faces up to seven years in prison when he is sentenced in March.
• During an extensive search of Garner's home after Wienckowski's body was found, Lauber said he went through the garbage tote for Garner's residence and discovered an earring that belonged to Wienckowski.
"The earring was wrapped in an ATM bank withdrawal slip that Garner had made three days earlier, and the earring had a strand of blond hair on it," Lauber said.
But DNA testing to determine if the hair belonged to Wienckowski, a blond, was never conducted, he said. Lauber said he does not understand why a test was not completed, especially since homicide detectives in 2009 put in a specific request for the test.
DNA tests did determine, however, that a hair found on Wienckowski's body belonged to Garner, he said.
The garbage tote in which Wienckowski's body was found was reported missing by its owner weeks before it turned up next to the church, Lauber said. And investigators suspected that if Wienckowski was dead, she was probably inside that missing container.
"We conducted surveillance of Garner's home, conducted numerous interviews and went up in the Erie County sheriff's Air One helicopter searching for the tote. That tote was not across the street from Garner's home in the days before she was found," he said.
So where was Wienckowski's body in the five weeks from early December when her family reported her missing to its discovery on Jan. 9, 2009?
That is a question police have not been able to answer, Lauber said. But now, as individuals such as Council Member Darius G. Pridgen try to get to the bottom of Wienckowski's death with its conflicting pathology reports, Lauber said, the public should be aware that homicide detectives worked diligently on the case.
Pridgen, whose Ellicott District includes the location where Wienckowski was found, is working with County Legislature Chairwoman Betty Jean Grant to arrange for a county hearing where Chief Erie County Medical Examiner Dianne R. Vertes would be urged to attend and explain the county autopsy.
Vertes, one of the four pathologists to sign Wienckowski's autopsy report, declined Pridgen's request that she attend his Legislative Committee meeting two weeks ago.
Peter Anderson, a county spokesman, said Vertes' findings in the Wienckowski death are self-explanatory and have already been widely reported.
