Behind an explosive 48-point first-half, the Stetson women's basketball team won its 16th straight home game, defeating USC Upstate 79-55 Monday night at the Edmunds Center.
Shanasa Sanders scored 23 points and collected nine rebounds as the Hatters (18-6) improved to 11-2 in the Atlantic Sun Conference and a perfect 12-0 at home this season.
Victoria McGowan tallied 13 points, including the 1400th point of her career, while Cherisse Burris (12 points) and Jama Sharp (11) also scored in double figures.
"We played really well in the first 20 minutes," Stetson head coach Lynn Bria said. "We were moving the ball well, cutting hard, and just sharing the ball. I thought Victoria had some good shots that she just passed up to somebody else who had a better shot."
For the game Stetson shot 53.7 percent from the floor and 43.8 percent from behind the arc. The Hatters outrebounded the Spartans 37-29, and held a 38-28 advantage in points in the paint.
"When we win the battle of the paint, we tend to win the game," Bria said. "That seems like that's the stat - although not all the time - that makes the difference on whether we win or lose."
Stetson pounded the ball inside early, scoring the first 15 points from either in the paint or from the free throw line. Sanders knocked down Stetson's first outside jumper, a three-pointer at the 12:16 mark that gave the Hatters an 18-6 lead.
The Hatters returned to the inside game, getting back-to-back layups by Burris and one more by Sharp to extend the lead to 24-9.
"As much as we like to shoot the three, I still think the game is won and lost on the low block," Bria said. "You have got to get the ball inside and you have to score points in the paint."
Sanders second three-pointer of the half put Stetson ahead by 16, 29-13.
The lead was still 16 when Stetson broke the game wide open with an 11-0 run. C.J. Coddington ignited the surge with a three-pointer from the left corner just before the shot clock expired to put Stetson ahead by 19, 40-21.
A pair of Spartan turnovers led to a short jumper by Sanders and a three-pointer by Jama Sharp. McGowan then swished home a long three and Stetson took a 48-23 lead into halftime.
The Hatters shot 65 percent in the first 20 minutes of play, while USC Upstate (9-15, 5-8) shot only 38 percent.
"Defensively we were very good as well," Bria said. "They are a very good penetrating team. I thought we contained them well and got stops. It took them a while to get points on the board."
McGowan's three-pointer at the 10:27 mark of the second half put her at the 1400-point mark for her career. She is just the fourth player in school history to reach that milestone.
"If she were here for four years she would have about 3000 points," Sanders said about McGowan. "She's our leader and we go as she goes."
Sanders, meanwhile, continued her run of high scoring games. She is now averaging 19.4 points over her last five contests.
"She has been shooting well, and everything is going in," McGowan said about Sanders. "I just tell her to keep shooting, even when you miss just keep shooting."
The Hatters led by as many as 33 in the second half before completing a 24-point victory.
"To their credit USC Upstate came out and played better in the second half, but I didn't feel like we had that drop off like we had in the East Tennessee game," Bria said. "We still played a very good game for 40 minutes on both ends."
The women's basketball program hosted its annual Play4Kay contest to raise awareness for the fight against breast cancer, and a large turnout of Stetson students wearing pink "Pack the House" t-shirts rallied the Hatters throughtout the game.
"I know coach Dunn was here with his (baseball) players, our football team and our lacrosse team was here, and I am just thankful and grateful to everyone who came," Bria said. "We had a lot of people from the community here as well and to support a great cause. Almost all of us have been effected by cancer in some way, and it's just nice to see everyone come out, support a good cause, and see a really good game."
The Hatters will return to action next Saturday as they visit Northern Kentucky for the first-time ever. Tip-off is scheduled for 4:30 p.m. with live coverage on ASun.TV and WSBB.
Notes: Stetson's 18 victories ties for the sixth-highest single-season win total in school history ... The school record is 23 wins, set last year ... It was the seventh time in 12 home games this season that Stetson led wire-to-wire ... Stetson won its eighth game of the season by 20 or more points ... Stetson's 16-game home court winning streak trails only Baylor (51), Chattanooga (24), and Penn State (18) ... Sasha Sims is now 25 points shy of 1000 in her career ... Stetson is 15-1 when outscoring its opponents in the paint.

Upchurch will be speaking to the college's photography club, Fruit of the Lens, on SCC's Somerset Campus in the Citizens National Bank Community Room of the Harold Rogers Student Commons. The event is free and everyone is invited.
Upchurch retired from teaching and coaching in 2000 and began taking pictures. "…and I haven't stopped," he says on his website, wadeupchurch.com. Today, Wade Upchurch Photography is involved in many areas of photography, including weddings, portraits, special events and fine art.
Upchurch says that his philosophy is "to capture the moment in an unobtrusive manner for a more relaxed environment," and notes that he uses "formal, candid and photojournalistic approaches to create a long lasting impression."
Photo club advisor Cindy Burton encourages anyone with a love for photography to attend this event. "Our club and our meetings are not just for the serious photographers, but anyone who enjoys taking pictures," she said. "Bring a lunch or just stop in to hear Mr. Upchurch tell how his passion for photography has evolved into a growing business."

Myopathic changes
Primary tabs
Myopathic changes include patterns of weakness, electromyogram (EMG) findings, or biopsy results that suggest a muscle disorder. The muscle disorder can be inherited, such as muscular dystrophy, or acquired, such as alcoholic myopathy.
The main symptom is weakness.
Other symptoms include cramps and stiffness.
Exams and Tests
Blood tests sometimes show abnormally high muscle enzymes. If a muscle disorder might also affect other family members, genetic testing may be done.
When someone has symptoms and signs of a muscle disorder, an electromyogram, muscle biopsy, or both can confirm whether it is a myopathy. A muscle biopsy examines a tissue sample under a microscope to confirm disease.
Treatment depends on the cause. It usually includes:
- Bracing
- Medication
- Physical therapy
- Preventing the condition from getting worse
- Surgery (sometimes)

BALTIMORE – US Lacrosse announced Tuesday the final 18-player roster for the U.S. under-19 women's national team that will travel to Hannover, Germany, for the 2011 Federation of International Lacrosse (FIL) U19 World Championship in August.
The U.S. U19 team was trimmed from the 24-player training team after games last weekend against Rollins College and Jacksonville University at Champion Challenge, a US Lacrosse event in Lake Buena Vista, Fla.
"For every single player on the team, it was down to this weekend," said Team USA head coach Krystin Porcella. "We felt like we made some good decisions [at tryouts] in August that it was that close down to the wire."
The team includes two sets of high school teammates. Attacker Cortney Fortunato, the team's youngest player and a sophomore at Northport (N.Y.) High School, will reunite with Northport senior midfielder Shannon Gilroy for Team USA. Attacker Brigid Smith and defender Caileigh Sindall, meanwhile, are both seniors for Good Counsel just outside Washington, D.C.
Attacker Covie Stanwick will continue a family legacy in the US Lacrosse national teams programs. Stanwick's older sisters Sheehan and Coco played for U.S. Elite and U19 teams, respectively. Coco was the captain of the 2003 U.S. U19 team that won a gold medal at the world championships in Towson, Md. Stanwick's older brother, Steele, made the 2008 U.S. U19 men's national team that won gold in Coquitlam, British Columbia, but could not participate due to injury.
The 2011 U.S. U19 women's national team includes 10 US Lacrosse high school All-Americans, six players each from Maryland and New York, three from Massachusetts, two from Pennsylvania and one from New Jersey. Midfielder Madison Acton, a player-voted captain of the training team who appeared on the cover of the January issue of Lacrosse Magazine, leads the Massachusetts contingent. Midfielder Taylor Trimble out of Philadelphia is a two-time winner of the Heather Leigh Albert Award as the nation's top high school player at the US Lacrosse Women's Division National Tournament.
Team USA has won 20 consecutive games in U19 international play dating back to 1999. The U.S. has won gold medals in the last three world championships after falling to Australia in the 1995 final, its lone defeat in 27 games.
The current U.S. U19 team will regroup May 28-29 at Stony Brook University in New York for the US Lacrosse Women's National Tournament before moving onto the FIL World Championship Aug. 3-14 in Hannover.

Thanks for the trip down memory lane. I had to go back and see if I voiced my opinion. Too bad I didn't. I could now be doing the "neener neener neener toldyaso toldyaso toldyaso neener neener neener" chant.
That said, I have respect for those who will change their opinions when taking into consideration new evidence, and also for those who will stick to their guns as long as they're willing to consider new evidence.
It's a matter of liking or not liking. Opinions are like noses: Everyone has one, but you can only pick your own.
My opinion? I like Tootoo.

I had only to glance out of the window to find the topic for today's column. My neighbor has a beautiful pale pink magnolia in full bloom, and my young magnolia stellata is covered with white, starry flowers.
Driving through town is always a pleasure in the spring, when all the flowering trees are showing their colors. In this summery spring, they are as beautiful as they have ever been.
The magnolia is a survivor of ancient forests where the large, colorful flowers and noticeable fragrance were adapted for pollination by clumsy, slow-moving beetles in the time before bees. Fossilized remains have been dated to 50 million years of age.
Magnolias still grow wild in Central America and Mexico, and there are 125 known species, nine of them native to the forests of North America.
Their native habitat is moist woodland, and so ideal planting spots would be in damp areas with plentiful humus in the soil. Standing water could be harmful, but young trees will benefit from watering in dry summers. Avoid low areas where cold air could collect.
A north exposure will delay early opening, so help to guard against a spring frost that could cause browning of flower petals.
This said, my magnolia is flourishing in clay soil where water pools after a downpour. Apparently, a tree whose ancestors have survived for millions of years has developed resistance to conditions that are less than ideal.
My little tree is 3 years old now. I had always wanted a star magnolia, but they were expensive and I really had no room for another shrub, but some moving around freed a space, and I am so happy with the result.
The eventual size of magnolia stellata can be as much as 15 feet wide and tall, but that problem is far down the road.
The white flowers appear before the leaves and the buds develop in July, ready for flowering the following year. For this reason, the shrub should not be pruned. If pruning is absolutely necessary, early summer would be the best time. If branches are removed, the wounds may not heal.
This year, blooming is earlier than usual, along with most other plants in this warm spring. April is the expected time to welcome the flowers, which are white and many-petaled.
Other varieties which do well in this area include soulangeana and liliflora with blossoms of pink, cream or purplish red. I remember a hospital stay many years ago at the old Mercy Hospital when the beautiful old magnolia on the front
lawn seemed to be tapping at my window.
Magnolia should not be transplanted because root damage may kill the plant, and the initial planting needs great care to protect the tender roots. The rootball should not be spread.
Once settled in, it is a good idea to underplant with some variety of ground cover to minimize disturbance from weeding or other
activity in the topsoil around the trunk.
The best method of propagation is by layering. This is an easy but slow process. In June or July, select a branch near the ground, with a year-old one most likely to succeed, and peg it to the ground.
Mound a little soil over the spot and leave it alone.
In one or two years, sufficient roots should have formed to support the new shrub, which can be cut away and planted. I am going to try this.
My thanks to all the people who grow flowering trees. Tiffin is a more beautiful place because of your efforts.

McDonald & Lake Lead Cubs to Victory
Darnell McDonald and Junior Lake each had a single, a double, and an RBI, leading the Cubs to a 5-3 victory over the Oakland Athletics in Cactus League action this afternoon at Dwight Patterson Field at HoHoKam Park in Mesa, AZ.
Scott Feldman made his first game appearance as a Cub today, getting the start and throwing two innings. He allowed one run on two hits (a single and a triple) and two walks, with two strikeouts (one swinging & one looking) and a 2/1 GO/FO. Feldman struggled with his control over the 2.0 IP (37 pitches - only 18 strikes), and benefited from two outstanding defensive plays behind him or his day could have been much worse.
After retiring the first two men he faced on a 4-3 ground out and a strikeout, Feldman walked Josh Reddick, and then surrendered a Brandon Moss one-hop line-drive single to right. RF Jorge Soler fielded the ball cleanly and fired a one-hop strike to 3rd base to nail Reddick trying to advance for the third out of the inning.
Feldman also retired the first two men he faced in the 2nd inning (F-7 and a strikeout), before walkng Derek Norris and giving up a Michael Choice RBI triple off the CF fence. Miles Head then topped a "swinging bunt" between home and 3rd that was fielded by Feldman, but the pitcher's throw to 1st base bounced once and was a bit off line. 1B Brent Lillibridger adjusted to the situation, however, and with some fancy footwork, managed to keep his other foot on the bag as he stretched into foul territory to corral the bouncing ball for the third out, as the ball just barely missed hitting the baserunner.
Travis Wood threw the next two innings, allowing a Derek Norris solo HR onto the LF berm and a single. He threw 41 pitches (25 strikes) with a 1/4 GO/FO over the two innings, and struck out one (the final better he faced) with no walks.
It appears that Feldman and Wood are battling for what will eventually be the #5 starter slot (once Matt Garza and Scott Baker are ready to join the rotation), so it was interesting to see them pitch back-to-back in the same game. Wood looked much sharper than Feldman today, although (obviously) it is still very early.
After being shutout through the first two innings by LHP Brett Anderson, the Cubs scored three runs (one earned) on five hits off veteran RHP Bartolo Colon in the 3rd & 4th innings to take a 3-2 lead.
Brent Lillibridge grounded a single through the box leading off the 3rd, and scored on a Dave Sappelt one-out RBI double off the top of the LF fence (near-HR). Then in the bottom of the 4th, Darnell McDonald grounded a lead-off single to center, and after Jorge Soler and Dioner Navarro struck out, Javier Baez ripped a line-drive single to CF, with McDonald advancing to 3rd. Lillibridge then reached base on what should have been a 4-6 FC and the third out, but A's SS Hiroyuki Nakajima dropped the toss from 2B Scott Sizemore as Baez slid hard into the bag, allowing McDonald to score. Junior Lake followed with a rocket line-drive single to left to score Baez, who put on the after-burners to just barely beat the throw home.
Carlos Marmol threw the 5th inning and did not allow the ball to leave the infield, striking out one (swinging) and inducing an infield pop up and a weak ground out. He did walk one batter, but otherwise looked very good (17 pitches - 11 strikes).
The Cubs scored again in the bottom of the 5th, as Darwin Barney led-off and reached base on a bloop single to left. Then with two outs, Darnell McDonald laced a double down the line into the LF corner, as Barney scored all the way from 1st, sliding home in a cloud of dust.
McDonald has looked good so far, and although there are probably only five slots available on the 25-man roster for outfielders (with Soriano, DeJesus, Hairston, Schierholtz, and Sappelt the likely finalists), McDonald could win a job if Soriano gets traded, or if one of the outfielders gets hurt, or if Sappelt (who coiuld be optioned to the minors) falls flat (but so far Sappelt has played very well).
Japanese import Kyuiji Fujikawa worked the 6th and allowed one harmless single, Rule 5 pick Hector Rondon had an impressive 1-2-3 7th (3-1 GO, strikeout swinging, and a 3-U groundout), and Zach Putnam (who has been impressive so far) pitched a scoreless 8th, allowing a lead-off single before retiring the side on three straight ground outs.
The Cubs scored their 5th and final run in the 8th. Edwin Maysonet led-off the inning by roping a double into the LF corner, advanced to 3rd base on a Brad Nelson 4-3 GO, and scored on a Christian Villanueva sacrifice fly (with plenty of distance) to CF. Villanueva (acquired from the Texas Rangers in the Ryan Dempster trade last July and rated the Cubs #12 prospect by Baseball America going into the 2013 season) has been impressive both at the plate and in the field, and while he isn't MLB-ready yet, he could be in another year (he will likely spend te 2013 season at AA Tennessee). He has shown HR power in games and an advanced approach at the plate, and he is a steady (if not spectacular) defender at 3B. He obviously has been well-coached (props to the Rangers Player Development Dept).
Both Maysonet and Nelson will likely be at Iowa in 2013, providing insurance in case of injury on the big league club (Nelson in the event Rizzo goes down, and Maysonet if something happens to Castro or Barney). It's possible that Maysonet could win a job on the Cubs MLB Opening Day 25-man roster even if there are no injuries in the infield, if Ian Stewart is released, and Luis Valbuena is the everyday third-baseman.
NRI RHP Jensen Lewis pitched the 9th and recorded the save, although it wasn't easy. He dug himself into a hole right from the gitgo by allowing two doubles (both on long fly balls that bounced over the fence) and a single, resulting in one run scoring and runners at 2nd & 3rd (the potential tying run on 2nd base) and no outs. But after a visit to the mound by Pitching Coach Chris Bosio (and with Blake Parker warming up in earnest in the Cub bullpen), Lewis reached back and struck out the next two batters swinging, before recording the final out on an easy 3-1 GO.
Among the pitchers competing for spots in the Cub bullpen, both Hector Rondon and Michael Bowden have a built-in advantage because neither can be sent to the minors without first passing through waivers. Bowden is out of minor league options (and he also can elect free-agency if outrighted, because he has been outrighted previously in his career), while Rondon (as a Rule 5 player) must be offered back to the organization from which he was drafted (the Cleveland Indians) even if waivers are secured.
One other thing to keep in mind about Rondon is that he is not your trypical Rule 5 draft pick. A one-time Indians Top 10 Prospect who has been slow to recover after undergoing Tommy John elbow surgery in August 2010, Rondon is out of minor league options, and he can elect free-agency if he is sent outright to the minors (he was outrighted previously in his career), which means if he isn't kept on the Cubs MLB 25-man roster in 2013, the Cubs would have to outright him to the minors (presuming waivers are secured and the Indians decline to take him back), and then if he is outrighted, he can (like Michael Bowden) elect to be a free-agent. BTW, this also will likely impact Cleveland's decision to re-claim Rondon should it get to that point. The Indians would have to pay the Cubs $25,000 (half the Rule 5 Draft price) if they re-claim Rondon, but will they risk spending the $25,000 for nothing since Rondon can elect free-agency if outrighted (and a returned Rule 5 player MUST be sent outright to the minor league club from which he was drafted, in this case AAA Columbus).
If I have a heart attack this
If I have a heart attack this week, I swear to god my last words will be, "But I never got to see Soler field the ball cleanly and fire a one-hopper to third and nail a guy trying to advance from first!"
Your coverage is the best, Phil.
"That throw that (Soler) made
"That throw that (Soler) made from right field is about as good of a throw that you can make," [Scott] Feldman said. "(The runner) had a shocked look on his face like you are not supposed to throw me out on that. It was a good play."
Hey AZ Phil, really love
Hey AZ Phil, really love reading your posts. Had a question for you. From all I can tell, it seems like these guys are the ones in the running for the final 2 bullpen spots:
Dolis, Cabrera, Bowden, Rondon, D. Carpenter, Chapman, Coleman, Lewis, Parker, Putnam, Takahashi, Wade
Just curious as to what you think of what you've seen of them, and what you think will happen to them (make the 25 man, go to AAA, opt out, get released, etc).

In a controversial decision certain to be associated with some symbolic meaning by Cubs fans everywhere, the Chicago Cubs have said they will no longer invite celebrities visiting Wrigley Field to lead seventh-inning stretch renditions of "Take Me Out to the Ballgame." The tradition, started by legendary Cubs broadcaster Harry Caray, will be limited to celebrities with strong ties to the city or team..
"I think the last couple of years we had gotten away to a couple of people who weren't tied to Chicago," said Jim Oboikowitch, the Cubs in-game programming director.
The Associated Press reports:
Oboikowitch said the new plan calls for handing the microphone over to people like former Cubs players and various Chicago celebrities like actors Vince Vaughn and Gary Sinise. Always welcome would be any member of the 1985 Super Bowl champion Bears, of course.

lester going for #20...cubs haven't had a 20 game winner since d.ellsworth in 1963.
J-Hey not finishing with an offensive onslaught.
If Geoff Blum could be a Playoff hero, there is hope still...
Giants scare me. I think you're wrong about Bumgarner, he would pitch on short rest for Game 2 and then full rest for Game 5. Cueto would go Game 1, then short rest in game 4. Add in some really tough outs in that lineup and I want nothing to do with them. With that rotation they can easily steal a series.
Cards are a tough matchup. The rivalry evens out their comparable lack of talent. And like someone said, they love HRs, which is how to beat the Cubs. The upside is that I would feel really good about Lester twice against STL.

Soler likely to return Sunday, Maddon says
Right now, I'd like to see the Mets first, Giants 2nd.
I believe that since most of the team from last years' NLCS is on the squad this year, they will really amp their game up even more to kick their ass in payback for 2015.
The Giants just do not have the depth in years past, and I think all things equal - and at Wrigley - they could handle them.
I do not want to see the Cards, period. Or their fans, media, or Joe Buck.
I don't want to play Braves in the first round. Any friggin team in the league can win 3 of 5..I hate the first round. Furthermore, I wanted to play the Marlins in 2003 and the Mets over Dodgers last year.
With that said in reverse order:
3. Cardinals: It will be devastating to lose in the first round, but even worse to their main rival. It is increased incentive for the Cardinals, especially after last year. Cards would have nothing to lose, Cubs have everything to lose.
2. Giants: Rotation in the playoffs scare me a bit, but what a lousy team.
1. Mets--because of the losses in the rotation
2. Giants--because they're not the team they were BUT they maybe have bullshit even-year magic?
3. Cardinals--because rivalry and not making the playoffs hurts them more than losing in the NLDS plus getting eliminated by them in the playoffs would make for horrible sports commentary next throughout next season.
Who's asking?
CLE/DET rained out last night already, possible rain-outs in New York (vs. Baltimore), Boston(vs. Toronto) and Philly(vs. Mets) this weekend too.
Not only games involving playoff spots that would need to be played, but any that involve home field advantage.
I got the first one! Second one I'm not even sure what even/odd betting is.
any opponent preference for NLDS?
Mets are down to 1 great pitcher instead of 4. Syndegaard may pitch Sunday which means if Mets win the WC game, he'd be set up for Game 1. There's a chance they clinch a spot by Sunday so he'd pitch the WC and then we'd probably get Colon for Game 1. They've certainly had the hottest bats over the last week and month out of the WC options.
A couple of Cub related puzzles.

Ambassador Gives Shoe Designer Gianvito Rossi Dinner and a House Tour
PARIS — It's hard to know what was more curious – that Italy's ambassador to France was holding a formal dinner for a German fashion website called MyTheresa.com, or that actor Jared Leto was sweetly cheerleading for the evening's shy guest of honor, Italian shoe designer Gianvito Rossi.
"Good job, buddy!" Mr. Leto announced with good nature after Mr. Rossi's hesitant greeting to the assembled guests during this city's chic haute couture fashion week. The friendly Mr. Leto was resplendent in a teeshirt and windbreaker at the formal embassy dinner. He said he was looking forward to the food, which he assumed would be imported from Italy.
"I'll bet they brought a buffalo on a plane to milk it," Mr. Leto joked, in anticipation of buffalo mozzarella. Mr. Rossi looked very happy to share the spotlight.
Italian Ambassador Giandomenico Magliano hosts no more than three or four fashion related dinners in a year at his country's Paris embassy, he says. Tod's billionaire chairman Diego Della Valle has been honored with a fete there. But Monday night was the turn of Mr. Rossi, who learned his trade at the knee of his father Sergio Rossi of the sexy heels. The son – with two children of his own – is forging ahead in his father's, and grandfather's footsteps. His luxury shoe brand is selling like gangbusters on MyTheresa.com, according to that site's buying director Justin O'Shea, who wore a bow tie and tuxe to dinner and gave a toast for the designer.
The ambassador's wife, Giada Magliano Santasilia, wore a bronze leather pair of Gianvito Rossi sandals and over pre-dinner cocktails commented on how comfortable the heels were. Her husband, easily sidetracked from mingling duties, invited three guests to join him on an upper floor, which offered an excellent view of the embassy's vast garden.
The ambassador, who in 1 1/2 years in the job has survived three of his country's prime ministers, wandered through rooms flicking on lights and sharing tidbits – an 18th century grand piano in the music room, and an intimate dining room (with a table for at least two dozen) taken from a Venetian palazzo. To identify his four children in family photographs that were scattered about, the Neapolitan native – raised also in Rome and Paris – removed his glasses and squinted at the glass frames.
Mr. Magliano's job in Paris is scheduled to last a total of four years, at which point he expects to move on to an ambassadorship in Britain or the United States. He pondered the Paris home's age for a moment. "You know, Benjamin Franklin may have visited here," he posited, promising to do the research.

ROCKFORD — The Rockford Public Library is hoping to wipe the slate clean for thousands of patrons. Sixty-two percent of the library's 57,554 cardholders owe the library for overdue returns or lost items.
INSIDE: Late fees, how amnesty works
ROCKFORD — The Rockford Public Library is hoping to wipe the slate clean for thousands of patrons.
Sixty-two percent of the library's 57,554 cardholders owe the library for overdue returns or lost items.
When late fees total $5, cards are blocked; patrons are not allowed to check out new items until fees are paid.
That's how it typically works.
However, the Rockford Public Library is offering late-fee amnesty in September in hopes of welcoming patrons back to the library.
"We would like to get as many people as possible using our library," Executive Director Frank Novak said. "We felt as though many people were unable to use our materials, facilities, and services due to old fines, fees and overdue materials.
"To eliminate that barrier to access, it was time for the library to wipe the slate clean and give everybody a fresh start. ... Having a fresh start may be just what some people need to again be active library users."
Most major library systems offer late-fee amnesty days, but they are few and far between. The Chicago Public Library offered its first amnesty days in 20 years in 2012.
Rockford's last fine forgiveness period occurred in 2005. The total amount of fines eligible for amnesty this time around is $474,489.01.
The rules are simple:
- If you have overdue materials, bring them in. You won't be charged late fees.
- If you have outstanding late fees on your account, come in and ask that your fines be waived.
- The only things that can't be waived are replacement costs.
Denise Johnson of Rockford said she supports amnesty days.
"There probably are people who want to come back but can't because of their fines," she said. "They probably feel like they can't come because they've been rejected."
The library has 35,697 cardholders who owe fines. Of those, 12,838 owe less than $5 each.
The money received as late fees goes back into the library's general fund, but it's an unreliable revenue stream, officials said. Some of the money goes to a collection agency the library uses to go after larger fines.
The library is hosting a library card drive this month as well.
Anyone who signs up for a card this month will be entered into a contest to win one of five Kindle e-book readers.
Corina Curry: 815-987-1371; email@example.com; @corinacurry
Overdue charges/day
- General collection: 25 cents
- CDs: $1
- DVDs: $1
- E-book readers: $5 ($10 if returned in a book drop)
- All other AV: 25 cents
- Maximum fine: $5
Page 2 of 2 - Lost items
Items 24 months overdue may be deleted from the library's database and treated as lost. There is a replacement fee plus $10 for processing.
How amnesty works
Overdue items can be returned to the circulation desk of any Rockford Public Library location, and ?nes will be waived regardless of how long items are overdue.
Patrons can stop at any library branch and ask to have old late fees waived. The amnesty period runs through Sept. 30.
For questions or more information, email email@example.com or call 815-987-6667.
To request amnesty by email, a patron must submit his or her name, library card number and date of birth. The account will be reviewed, and the library will respond to the cardholder via email on whether the fines were forgiven.

Shrimping is tougher than most folks think. You dont just head out on the water, toss a few bait balls overboard and fill up a 48-quart cooler lickety-split.
Though that does happen from time to time, the viral retelling of such rare feats amplifies our collective expectations when shrimp-baiting season rolls around.
The more likely scenario, of course, involves a lots of prep work followed by a few hours of casting a net in the dark. Beer-sipping friends along for the ride will be all too willing to offer helpful critiques Potato chip! Banana! as the net splashes down after a poorly executed throw.
If youre lucky, you might come home with a half a cooler of small to medium shrimp, then spend an hour or so spiking your fingers as you rip the heads off your catch.
Believe it or not, theres a lot of fun squeezed in there. With the right folks on board, shrimp baiting can be a blast.
But coming home with 12 shrimp is never fun. Not several dozen. Twelve individual shrimp.
This has been the sad saga for many a recreational shrimper this season, which started Sept. 15 and rolls through mid November.
Halfway through the season, the consensus seems to point to a very mixed bag.
Scott Hammond of Haddrells Point in West Ashley says chatter in the shop so far indicates solid catches south of Charleston in the North Edisto River, some decent catches north in Bulls Bay and mostly dismal reports from Charleston Harbor.
Mike Benson of Charleston Angler in Mount Pleasant also reports a hit-and-miss season so far. Some shrimp-baiting veterans have been blanked in Charleston Harbor, he said, while others reported a great early season in Bulls Bay.
I had one friends who went to Bulls Bay on opening day, and he coolered out in three passes (on the poles), Benson said. And they were big shrimp, big whites.
Though some shrimpers speculate that most shrimp might have moved offshore early, Benson thinks shrimpers might get a nice pop as the season heads to close.
Im still seeing a ton of shrimp up in the flats and the creeks, so I have a hard time believing theyve already all moved out.
Larry DeLancey, a biologist with the S.C. Department of Natural Resources, said a recent survey trawl captured quite a few shrimp in upstream creeks and rivers. These upstream shrimp, which theoretically could move downstream and become more accessible to shrimp baiters, were relatively small, he said.
Trawls in the harbor turned up larger specimens, but not many. Kinda piddling, he said.
DeLancey also suspects that some large shrimp have already moved offshore.
We had such a mild, warm spring, and the shrimp spawned really early, DeLancey said. That might have thrown them out of whack some. They were spawning in late march or early April, which is unusual. Usually its a month later.
Weird rain patterns also might be hampering the shrimp season. Instead of a little bit of rain weekly, the Lowcountry seems to be going dry for weeks and then getting 5 inches of rain at once, he said. Such salinity variations can stunt the growth of shrimp or force some to move out early while others hang upstream.
The system would be more productive if we had normal rainfall, like once a week, he said.
Bottom line for Lowcountry shrimpers? The best bets seem to be north or south of Charleston. And even then, shrimpers can count on working hard for a full cooler.
I thought it would be a lot better, but it just never panned out, DeLancey said. Its a head-scratcher.
Public duck hunts
Its time to test your duck-luck.
The deadline to enter the states drawing for public waterfowl hunts is Oct. 26. Theres a $20 entry fee and forms can be found at dnr.sc.gov/hunting/drawhunts.
The program is so popular that it usually takes two years or more to actually score a hunt, said Dean Harrigal, a DNR waterfowl biologist and veteran duck hunter.
But its worth the wait, Harrigal said. Getting picked awards hunters access to some of the best (and intensely managed) waterfowl habitats on the East Coast, including the Santee Coastal Reserve and Bear Island.
Would-be hunters can enter once for multiple sites across the state. But they should research each site beforehand.
Each site is slightly different, Harrigal said. You need to look at the sites and match your equipment needs. For instance, on Bear Island East and Springfield, we provide you with boats, blind and decoys.
Most sites feature wetlands managed specifically for waterfowl, and success rates are usually high, even for novice hunters, Harrigal said. Its premier public hunting.
Fisheries management
The South Atlantic Fishery Management Councils Scientific and Statistical Committee will meet in North Charleston this week to evaluate vermilion snapper, red porgy, yellowtail snapper, black sea bass and red snapper.
The committee will meet Oct. 23-25 at the Crowne Plaza Hotel, 4831 Tanger Outlet Blvd. For agendas, go to safmc.net.

Do you love the life of a leader? No, not the power mistakenly associated with the position. And not the money mistakenly envied with the title. To love the life of the leader you must love your life as a leader. From the CEO, to a member of an executive leadership team, or those who lead in the trenches by influence and excellence, leadership involves responsibility and, at times, hardship.
By managing personnel and implementing policies and procedures, leaders earn their living by making difficult decisions. Sometimes those decisions are not appreciated. Often times they are not understood. Leaders who work to build individuals and teams live in the tension of risk and reward. I regularly meet with leaders dealing with what seems to be a poor ROI.
With finances and personnel, get rich schemes do not work. Leading demands consistent investment and patience to see ROI over time. Loving the life of a leader requires living with the assurance that most people can and want to develop. Developing people requires constant awareness of their progress on assigned tasks. Making the investment will make you richer.
Have you leveraged time and energy into people, hoping to see great ROI? Be passionate, patient, and persistent as you track return. Loving the life of the leader requires knowing the majority of your investments in people will produce positive returns. Do you fret that your investments are not growing fast enough? Or do you love the life of a leader, knowing that building people is a process?

Lycoming County is considering a $40 million plan to build a new county jail outside the city.
Prison construction consultants Carter Goble Lee and Ebensburg architecture firm L.R. Kimball presented a design to the county Prison Board Friday morning for a 538-bed, one-floor facility that combines the county prison and Pre-Release Center at one site.
The plan projects 23-percent growth in Lycoming County's inmate population over the next 15 years and calls for a new, combined 348-bed jail and 190-bed PRC.
Article Photos
MARK NANCE/Sun-Gazette
Robert T. Goble, executive vice president of CGL Services Division, presents plans for a new county prison to the Prison Board on Friday. At left is Kevin DeParlos, warden.
The county prison, at 277 W. Third St., has 255 beds and no room for expansion. The Pre-Release Center (PRC) at 546 County Farm Road, Montoursville, has 137 beds.
One possible location for a new prison is on land already owned by the county at its farm complex, which is home to several county offices, the county department of public safety and the PRC.
Lycoming County Commissioner Jeff Wheeland said he didn't know what would become of the existing prison, but indicated that the PRC could not be incorporated into a new structure because of the building's inefficiencies.
The consultant's study estimates that in 2027 the average daily inmate population between the prison and PRC will be 468. The county's average daily population this past year was 380.
Average inmate population has grown by 11 percent since 2000.
The proposed design has a total square footage of 173,738 feet, with 128,125 square feet devoted to the prison.
"Three years from the time you say go is probably the minimum building time," CGL vice president Robert Goble said.
That time frame does not account for acquiring land, which is not included in the $40 million cost estimate.
Wheeland said the county is not locked into the consultant's recommendations.
"We're going to explore all other options before we resort to bricks and mortar," he said, noting incarceration alternatives like electronic monitoring and a day reporting center may impact any decision.
He said the court system and the district attorney will play a large part in how the county moves forward.
"They spend the money and give us the bill. That's just the way the system is," Wheeland said.
Capacity in any new facility must account for peaks in population and separating inmates according to their sex and security classifications, CGL planner Aaron Baggarly said.
"We all know you have peaks and valleys in the jail population," Baggarly said. "You might have a 10-percent peak for a major crackdown a 15-percent peak above your highest average (inmate population) should be expected."
"The design is based on a direct supervision model, with an officer in the unit," Jack King of L.R. Kimball said. "Many services will be brought to individual units, like visiting, and there are separate exercise yards. That reduces security risks and the need for some personnel."
The one-floor plan is less costly to build per square foot and increases efficiency in moving prisoners for a potential personnel cost savings of 15 percent, Goble said.
Combining kitchens, laundry and other services into one unit might also eliminate duplication of services, Wheeland said.
The proposal estimates that at full capacity the 528 bed facility will require 161 full-time employees, or 3.26 staff per bed. The jail and PRC now employ 120 full-time - an average of 3.25 staff per bed.
"We estimate over a 10- to 15-year period that construction cost will only be about 10 percent of cost to the county," Goble said. "That should get you something that for 40 to 50 years shouldn't need replacement."
"I like that it's expandable," Wheeland said. "The initial idea for the (existing prison) was to build it so three or four floors could go on top a previous board of commissioners eliminated that."
Wheeland asked the consultants if Lycoming County's incarceration percentage per capita is unusual.
"In the United States the average incarceration rate is 768 per 100,000 of population in some kind of criminal commitment," Baggarly said.
"You're right in that 700 range."
Opened with just 82 inmates in early 1986, the existing prison was built at a cost of about $28 million.
Staff reporter Matt Hutchinson contributed to this report.

That red-riding hood fabric is adorable. I have a pile where I keep adding red, white and aqua (and pink) fabric from my stash. Thanks for the motivation to do something with it!
I seem to quilt all the time with chaos around me. Somehow it brings me comfort to see some permanent progress on something, when the rest of my life lacks visible evidence that I've been working all day. :) Good luck settling in your new home!

Well, I just have to say that this quilt is cherished and loved and used. Each time I go to Sarah's I just pull it out and stare at it. I must admit, I didn't notice the Little Red Riding Hood fabric. :( I will next time though! My favorite fabric was the gold fish with the names and the (is it a) scuba diver... it just cracked me up. I do love your quilts. I wish I was a niece! Thank you from Gramma K! At least I get to wrap 'em up in it when I'm there and enjoy them that way. :)

Exhibitor party is a hit
Submitted by World Dairy Expo on Wed, 10/03/2012 - 12:28
Hoard's Dairyman:
Exhibitor party is a hit
Date:Wed, 10/03/2012
Best booth winners were announced at the Hoard's Dairyman Exhibitor party
A packed room of commercial exhibitors enjoyed food, beverage, and conversation at a party hosted by Hoard's Dairyman. The highlight of the evening was when the trade show booth winners were announced.
Representatives from each booth were asked to hit a piñata. First Beth Saxton from APC took several swings at the piñata without breaking it open. Then with one swing, Doug Williams from Kuhn broke open the piñata. The piñata and the food served at the banquet were selected to celebrate the recognition of Abelardo Martinez, the publisher and editor of Hoard's Dairyman en Español, as the World Dairy Expo International Person of the Year.

Frustration is building in the tiny town of Cottageville as an investigation nears its second anniversary with no firm answers in the police-involved shooting of former Mayor Bert Reeves in May 2011.
Depending on who you talk to, FBI agents are still sniffing around town for clues or the probe is stuck in a logjam of cases awaiting review by the U.S. Justice Department's civil rights division in Washington, D.C. Officially, the feds aren't giving any status reports, much to the consternation of folks in this rural Colleton County burg.
Cottageville Mayor Margaret Steen said she inquires about the case at least once a week and gets no answers. She said it's time for federal or state officials to act on the case, one way or another.
"They don't tell us anything," Steen, who was Reeve's aunt, said. "I wish they would just go ahead and do it. It's time. It's been two years. That's ridiculous."
The State Law Enforcement Division conducted the initial criminal investigation into the shooting, but the results of that probe have not been made public. SLED has referred questions to the U.S. Attorney's Office, which would only confirm this week that the case remains under investigation.
So far, all anyone knows for sure is that former officer Randall Price fatally shot Reeves during a confrontation of some sort on a dusty dirt road near town hall on May 16, 2011.
Steen and others had hoped to see movement on the case after learning federal officials had recently closed the books on their investigation into another police-involved shooting in Orangeburg County that occurred just two weeks before Reeves was shot.
In that case, the Justice Department declined to pursue charges against a former police chief in Eutawville who fatally shot 54-year-old Bernard Bailey during a confrontation outside that community's town hall. First Circuit Solicitor David Pascoe is now conducting his own inquiry into Bailey's death.
Steen said she can't understand why federal officials can't make a decision in her town's case, as well. She said she hasn't seen any sign of FBI activity on the case in months.
But George Addison, a former Cottageville mayor and Town Council member, said he and others were contacted by the FBI just this past week about the shooting. The agents seemed focused on nailing down the timeline of events and double-checking statements given in the case, he said.
"They really seemed interested," he said.
The civil case
As the probe grinds on, a federal judge gave the okay this month for proceedings to resume in a civil lawsuit against Price, who was laid off by the town a few months after shooting Reeves.
Reeves' widow, Ashley, is suing Price, the town and its police department over her husband's death. Among other things, the lawsuit alleges that the town was negligent in hiring and failing to supervise Price, and that the officer used excessive force against Reeves.
In December, U.S. District Judge David Norton put discovery efforts targeting Price on hold for three months while the court waited to see how the federal investigation played out.
Price's lawyer, Lake Summers of Columbia, recently asked for another 90-day stay, saying his client's right against self-incrimination would be jeopardized if the case moved forward. Norton, however, ruled that such concerns were conjecture at this point, as Price has not been indicted for a crime "and indictment does not seem imminent."
Ashley Reeves' lawyer, Mullins McLeod, applauded the ruling. He can now seek to have Price answer questions about the shooting in a formal deposition.
"The family was happy with the court's order because they think it's time for Officer Price to answer for what he did," McLeod said.
Summers said the judge's ruling does not preclude Price from invoking his Fifth Amendment rights and refusing to answer certain questions. That said, Price, who has denied any wrongdoing, is eager to set the record straight "to the extent that he can," Summers said.
"Randy has desired an opportunity to defend himself," Summers said.
A deadly meeting
The lawsuit states that Price targeted Reeves because the former mayor raised concerns about complaints from town residents about the officer's "aggressive behavior."
The lawsuit alleges that Price, then 40, drove to Nut Hatch Lane, blocked Reeves in and shot him in the chest.
In their responses to the lawsuit, the town and its police department state that Reeves' reckless and negligent acts are to blame for his death. Reeves failed to follow Price's orders, assaulted the officer and tried to inflict serious injury, they stated. They also indicated that Reeves was under the influence of alcohol "and/or some illegal substance" at the time.
Price, who had cycled through eight police jobs in 11 years, has not returned to law enforcement since the shooting. He currently works in construction while he awaits some resolution in the case, Summers said.
"He's just waiting and doing the best he can," he said.

The little resort of Veysonnaz, located at about 1200 m, is 13 kilometres by road from Sion, the capital of the canton of Valais. Far below is the broad Rhone valley, and opposite, the northern chain of the Valais Alps, with the wide glaciers of the Plaine Morte. To the west, you can see as far as the bend in the valley where Martigny is situated.
Veysonnaz combines a modern tourist infrastructure with its original village features and the authentic way of life of the upland and alpine economy. Taking the cows up the mountain in June and the (bloodless) cow fights between the naturally combative Eringer (Hérens) cows of the Valais are traditions that are still alive and well here.
There are about 300 km of footpath in the area around Veysonnaz, and there are also opportunities for more challenging tours in the high mountains. The walks take you through unspoilt nature: in Veysonnaz, the flora and fauna and grazed pastureland are all protected. The "Bisse de Vex", a traditional open irrigation channel ("Suone") typical of the Valais and dating from the 15th century, has been extensively restored for 12 kilometres of its length and now the water is flowing again. These "Suonen" give some idea of the concerns local people had about water, and nowadays provide pleasant walks with no great differences in altitude, but mostly with fantastic views.
For families with children aged between 4 and 8, in the peak summer season there is a children's entertainment programme provided every day in the "Bears' Club". Older children can meet up in the "Sun + Fun Club".
As soon as the snow comes, Veysonnaz becomes a winter sports paradise. World Cup races take place on the "Piste de l'Ours" above Veysonnaz. The huge "Four Valleys" skiing area stretches from Veysonnaz and the adjacent Les Collons / Thyon 2000, taking in Nendaz and Mont Fort (3330 m), and extending as far as Verbier and La Tzoumaz, opening up no fewer than 410 km of slopes and 95 lifts for skiers of all abilities. Naturally, there are winter sports schools for children and adults, as well as lots of alternative winter activities for non-skiers.
- Suonen – these are ancient irrigation channels which run along the contours of the land, generally with no great differences in altitude, making for very pleasant walks.
- Sitten (Sion) – visit the capital of the Valais during your holiday, for a cultural excursion, a shopping trip or a gourmet meal out.
- The pyramids of Euseigne – the village of Euseigne, where the valley divides into the Val d'Hérens and the Val d'Hérémence, has unusual rock formations, created by natural erosion and visible from far away.
- Grande Dixence dam in the Val d'Hérémence – at 285 metres high, the highest dam in the world. Daily guided tours inside the dam wall.
- DiscGolf – an entertaining form of golf in which players have to sink frisbees into metal baskets in as few throws as possible.
Top Events
- Cow processions and cow fights – the combative Eringer cows of the Valais fight for the title of "Queen" (end of June / beginning of July).
- Grand Raid Cristalp – considered to be the longest and toughest mountain bike race in the world, covering a distance of over 131 km and 4600 metres of difference in altitude, from Verbier via Veysonnaz, Hérémence and Evolène to Grimentz (August).

I was stunned by William Edward Lukens' attack today upon those who oppose abortion on moral and spiritual grounds. He starts with a lie-a big lie-saying the Bible says nothing about when life begins. Here are the exact words which refute that lie from Psalm 139 verse 13: "For you created my inmost being; you knit me together in my mother's womb."
In challenging the sanctity of that life in the womb, daring to murder it there, Lukens opposes the action of the Creator God. He feigns knowledge of the Bible as if that strengthens his case, but Satan is a master at distorting the Bible, even daring to challenge Jesus to commit suicide to test God's commitment. Despite his effort, Lukens cannot compete with the Father of Lies to justify murder.
God is not mocked. A man reaps what he sows. Our country is now living the consequences of that Supreme Court decision in 1973 to legalize abortion, opening the door for narcissists to murder 55 million children being formed in their mothers' wombs by God. The Supreme Court was never infallible; witness the Dred Scott decision. But, Lukens is not diverted by issues of truth and falsity, or good and evil, but rather in achieving his ends by sophistry.
Lukens then assumes the role of Bible teacher, saying, "The closest the Bible comes to establishing someone's being is before conception is Jeremiah 1:5 and Luke 2:21," but doesn't quote them. Here is Jeremiah 1:4-5: "The word of the Lord came to me, saying, "Before I formed you in the womb I knew you, before you were born I set you apart; I appointed you as a prophet to the nations." And here is Luke 2:21: "On the eighth day, when it was time to circumcise him, he was named Jesus, the name the angel had given him before he was conceived." My questions to Lukens are, "What do these cites which you offer from the Bible say about life in the womb? What is a Christian to believe?"
Then Lukens cites Exodus 21:24, misquoting it. Here are verses 22-25: "If men who are fighting hit a pregnant woman and she gives birth prematurely but there is no serious injury, the offender must be fined whatever the woman's husband demands and the court allows. But if there is serious injury, you are to take life for life, eye for eye, tooth for tooth, hand for hand, foot for foot, burn for burn, wound for wound, bruise for bruise." Incredibly, Lukens intones: "...do they punish him by taking his own life? No, the abortion is overlooked and treated as irrelevant, so we draw the conclusion that the fetus is not considered a human." Wrong, Lukens! The woman gave birth prematurely. The verse says if there is serious injury (mother or newborn), they are to take life for life." How dare you knowingly misquote the words of the Bible in this newspaper and think your lies would be overlooked.

Update: For a quicker version of bisi bele bath using a pre-made masala powder, like MTR's, click here. And ,a href='http://mysoorean.blogspot.com/2016/09/bisi-bele-bhath-with-quinoa-one-pot.html'>here
1 cup Rice (uncooked)
3/4 cup Toor Dal (uncooked)
2 cups Mixed Vegetables (onions, potatoes, peas, beans, carrot, spinach, corn etc)
2 tsp Tamarind Paste
2 tsp jaggery
6 cups Water
Salt to taste
1/2 cup grated Copra or grated coconut
2 tsp huli pudi or Sambar Powder*
2 Tbsp Coriander Seeds
1" stick Cinnamon (*if using sambar powder, increase to 3-4 sticks and add 1/2 tsp methi)
3-4 Cloves
2-3 Cardamom
1 tsp Khus Khus
1/4 tsp Asafoetida
1 sprig Curry leaves
4-5 Tbsp Oil
3-4 Red Chillies
2 tsp Mustard Seeds
1 sprig Curry Leaves
1 tsp Turmeric
1/4 tsp Asafoetida
In a little bit of heated oil, fry the masala ingredients, except for the copra and the sambar powder. Grind all of the masala ingredients, including copra and sambar powder) to a paste with a little water. Keep aside.
In a pressure cooker, do the tadka. Add the mixed vegetables and fry for a few seconds. Add the rice and dal and fry for a few more seconds. Now put in ground masala, water, tamarind, jaggery and salt to taste. Cook in the pressure cooker for 3 whistles (well, 3 in my cooker. The rice and dal should have turned soft). It is a whistle more than when you cook plain dal. Once cooled, mix well. And that's it! It tastes delicious and we usually have it with sandige, rice papad, boondi, potato chips and/or raitha.
MTR makes a Bisi Bele Bhath powder that is pretty good too. With that powder, you bypass all the frying and grinding stuff. Update: Here is the recipe for Bisi Bele Bhath using MTR Powder
My youngest maama used to tell us these "Be silent!" jokes. The one on BBB goes like this. In a wedding, a man while waiting to be served lunch, shouts to the server impatiently "Bhatre, bisi bele bath badisi". Annoyed at the man shouting, another person tells him "Be Silent!!". So the man goes "Atre, isi ele aath adisi!" :)
To my non-Kannadiga pals, the man asks to be served BBB (all words in the sentence start with a B) and with the "Be silent!" the man repeats the same sentence silencing the B! A major PJ but we enjoyed all of my maama's silly jokes! :)

As promised I experimented with making a whole wheat pasta tonight. Let me just say from the outset that this is not a 100% whole wheat pasta, so some people might be disappointed. I'm pretty sure that a pasta made from all whole wheat flour would turn out pretty badly. My first attempt was to replace the white flour in this recipe with all purpose whole wheat flour. That was a failure. My flour is pretty coarse and so the dough never came together and kept breaking apart with all the bran and wheat germ. That batch went into the garbage. My next attempt was to add wheat germ and bran to the regular recipe--this worked out much better. The dough was more finicky that the regular version, but still cooked up great and had a good texture and taste.
Makes 1 lb of pasta
- 1 cup semolina flour
- 1 cup all purpose flour
- 2 tbsp vital wheat gluten
- 1/2 tsp salt (optional)
- 1/2 cup tepid water, plus 1-2 tbsp more
