That's what could be expected, given Pitt's recent comments about the pressure to propose – but according to Jolie, 36, her longtime beau's comments were a bit overblown.
"I think anything said tends to be blown out of proportion," Jolie told PEOPLE on Sunday's red carpet at the Screen Actors Guild Awards in L.A., when asked about "a lot of ring-talk lately."
"Yeah, that was my fault," Pitt, 48, admitted, with a smile.
Speculation that wedding bells may be in the near future for the famous couple stem from Pitt's interview with CBS News in which he said he and Jolie are "getting a lot of pressure from the kids."
"It means something to them," he continued. "We will [get married] someday, we will. It's a great idea. 'Get mommy a ring.' 'OK, I will, I will.' "
And then last week, Pitt reiterated those same comments to The Hollywood Reporter.
"It seems to mean more and more to our kids," he said. "We made this declaration some time ago that we weren't going to [get married] till everyone can. But I don't think we'll be able to hold out … it means something to me, too, to make that kind of commitment."

The Providence Rider is the fourth installment in the extraordinary series of historical thrillers featuring Matthew Corbett, professional problem solver. The narrative begins in the winter of 1703, with Matthew still haunted by his lethal encounter with notorious mass murderer Tyranthus Slaughter. When an unexplained series of explosions rocks his Manhattan neighborhood, Matthew finds himself forced to confront a new and unexpected problem. Someone is trying - and trying very hard - to get his attention. That someone is a shadowy figure from out of Matthew's past: the elusive Dr. Fell.
The doctor, it turns out, has a problem of his own, one that requires the exclusive services of Matthew Corbett.The ensuing narrative moves swiftly and gracefully from the emerging metropolis of New York City to Pendulum Island in the remote Bermudas. In the course of his journey, Matthew encounters a truly Dickensian assortment of memorable, often grotesque, antagonists. These include Sirki, the giant, deceptively soft-spoken East Indian killer, Dr. Jonathan Gentry, an expert in exotic potions with a substance abuse problem of his own, the beautiful but murderous Aria Chillany, and, of course, the master manipulator and "Emperor of Crime" on two continents, Dr. Fell himself. The result is both an exquisitely constructed novel of suspense and a meticulous recreation of a bygone era.
Filled with danger, narrative surprises, and an almost tangible sense of place, The Providence Rider is historical fiction at its finest and most developed. It is the novel that McCammon's many devoted readers have been waiting for. They will not be disappointed.

"This is a fun series"
I've read all four Corbett books to date. Thanks audible for making these available! I highly recommend checking out the entire series. Matthew Corbett is a fantastic character. The colonial America setting is unusual and well written, and the stories are engaging and fun.
I've been looking forward to Book 4 for a few months. Thankfully, McCammon seems to churn these out quickly. All of your favorite characters are back, AND most importantly we finally get to meet Professor Fell. Lots of action.
This isn't high art by any stretch, but it is a really fun read. Well worth your listening time and credits.
"Read the entire series..."
of four books and am looking forward to more by this author and this narrator. Unlike many characters, this protagonist, although very intelligent, is not superhuman. He possesses weaknesses as well as strengths, petty emotions as well as generous ones. He learns from experiences. The author is very descriptive, so I had no difficulty visualizing the scenes and the action taking place.
The narrator is excellent. I am picky about narrators, so that is saying something.
A middle-aged romantic who grew up reading Heinlen, Louis L'Amour and Richard Hooker. Expect and honest opinion, even if it's not PC.
"Making the same mistakes in a Great Series"
I love the premise of this series and the time period, but the personalities and actions are disappointing. Mathew seems determined to be a punching bag for every bad guy, not capable of defending himself or reacting in time to avoid injury; and I am getting sick of the "I love you too much to love you, so I'm going to treat you like a prick - no wait If I ever get out of this mess I'm going to treat you right" loop that he seems to be stuck in. I've already bought the next in the series, but if this pattern keeps repeating, then the chances of any future purchases of Mr. McCammon's books are doubtful.
English major. Love to read
"Completely Captivated"
I just finished this fourth book of the Matthew Corbett series and I haven't read anything else besides the series for the past few weeks. I have to preface this by saying that I rarely read murder mysteries or detective novels unless I am starting on a long road trip and need incentive to stay in the car or need a book for a plane flight and am in the airport. It is because I feel they are a basically shallow read. BUT this series is different: to start with, it is very well written,a must for me. The characters are well developed, the plot is riveting and the twists are very imaginative. Then you have the narrator who is one of the best I have heard on Audible. What is best is that once you have read the first book and loved it, then you have four more! VERY satisfying read.
"Jumped the shark! Poor sequel"
I loved the first two books. The third was a bit grim. This one was over the top and around the bend. The plot was very convoluted, the villains too evil to be believed, the narration poor.
Yes, but I have been disappointed by this book, which I chose not to finish. I liked the previous Matthew Corbett books, but I did not like "The Five" either. I would probably listen to an earlier Robert McCammon book and skip the recent offerings.
No. He was overly dramatic and so made the story sound like a melodrama.
"Language is everything"
Love the series. Characters are real and fully embodied. Villains are bad and heroes are people faced with hard choices. Story line is not repetitive. This book is no exception.
I believe, HOWEVER, that language is everything. The books are set in the late 1600s and early 1700s. What began for me as a bit eccentric became very irritating. Many of the idioms for example, did not exist at this time. Surely, there is a happy medium between using the antiquated language of the Bronte sisters, to the extreme modern expressions like "are you an item?" or "are you together?" and many others I can no longer remember.
And there are modern conveniences that were not available at the time – like "chocolate chips", baking soda for toothpaste or a tooth powder flavored with peppermint. Although there were cultures using various things as dentifrice from ancient times, it was not widespread in England, nor in the colonies until the late 18th century -- certainly not in 1702. This lack of dental hygiene was notorious in this period and many people were toothless.
While I understand it is impossible to research absolutely everything for an historical novel, it is nice when a writer tries to think outside our modern world box.
I hear voices. But maybe that's because there's always an Audible book in my ear.
"What a talented narrator!"
I have become a fan of Edoardo Ballerini's work. It's so easy to listen to him. He makes characters come alive. And just when I think he can't possibly come up with another one, he does. They are remarkably consistent not only from the beginning to the end, but from book to book.
As for the series ... the first book was stellar. As the series went on, each book became a little less magical for me. It's still a terrific listen - no question. But after the first book, each one goes down by about a 1/2 star in my opinion.
I am a 65-year-old psychologist, married for 25 years, with two sons who are 25 and 22. I love reviewing the books and the feedback I get.
"Curiouser and curiouser..."
I think it makes sense to review all four books in this series together, but the length of such a review would parallel the length of just a chapter of one of them. Mister Slaughter, the Queen of Bedlam, Speaks the Nightbird and Providence Rider: all four of these are the adventures of Matthew Corbett, a young man in his twenties who lives and works in and around New York City at about the year 1700. There is almost no limit to the imagination of Mr. McCammon, and my feelings about the skills of Edoardo Ballerini should be obvious to anyone who has read any of my reviews of his work. I'm not sure I could have gotten through one hundred hours of listening (roughly) to anyone other than Mr. Ballerini.
What Mr. McCammon has done is tell an enormously complicated tale, with major and minor plots, characters who move in and out of the spotlight, with plot twists that often defy the logical sense, and so forth. Often I felt that Matthew must have felt something like Alice in Wonderland, because of all of the strange and weird doings all around him. Mr. McCammon will throw in an interesting character and then once we get pulled in to this person, the author just drops him or her right down through the hole in the stage floor. There are utter improbabilities piled up upon each other everywhere. The grand conceit, that Matthew is the first private detective ever, is a clever one. His dalliances with a series of women is off-putting, as the women tend to be so interesting that I wanted one of them to take up more of our time (as Susan Silverman does in the life of Spenser). We are titillated by each one of these smart beauties, and then each of them just fades away.
It is not possible to rate these books one through four, at least for me. I think you read and like the entire series, or you don't. There is a lot of explicit violence in them, but if you think about the collected group of detective stories in existence, you see a lot of explicit violence there, too. McCammon's observational powers, particularly for minor details of clothing and settings, is almost mesmerizing. If he has actually witnessed all of the places, then he is one heck of a researcher, as good as Tim Hallinan. I feel a little frustrated that I am not giving you the sense of the plots of all four of these books, but there is just too much plot for me to be able to do that in a sensible way. So, I'll say: read the first one. If you like it, then read all four. You will, like Alice, fall down into a remarkable world, one full of sense and nonsense, and unforgettable for all that.
"My personal experience."
My reviews don't ever seem to be helpful. Not sure what a helpful review is. But I can say with experience that the Matthew Corbett series is riveting and intense. If you are an avid Audible reader, you will not be disappointed... helpful or not.
"Great writing great story"
This series has been a wonderful experience. Great writing great characters great story and great narration. This book is every bit as good as the first three that I gave five stars too. A new Matthew Corbett would be purchased by me as soon as I saw it on audible.
I am however worried that the new book in the series is half the length of any of the first four and has many poor reviews. Not sure when I will listen to book five. Should it disappoint I would feel like I had lost a good friend.
"Can't wait for more"
This book is very much the same as all other McCammon's stories: exciting,intelligent,keeping you on the edge,fiery detective work. This one however is so well written that I wasn't able to stop until the story finished.
Great adventure in a good all style, no nonsense only fantastic story. Edoardo Ballerini to me is the most wonderful narrator!
"MacCammon does it again"
I love these books following the exploits of unlikely hero Mathew Corbett. They leave me hanging in anticipation of the next book in the series.
"Matthew Corbett Books 1 to 4"
I have listened to all of the Matthew Corbett books and enjoyed them all. I first came upon Robert McCammon in the late 70's when he wrote his first book Baal and I enjoy his style of writing he really plants you into the brain of the character and even more so in the Corbett books. I started with book one Speaks the Nightbird which is brilliant. All books are standalone and the author does provide enough information in all books so as to not to leave you scratching your head wondering what is going on here. As for Edoardo Ballerini who narrators all four books he really does the business (Well done) . I listened to these books in my car on long journeys and I found myself sitting in the car at the end of the journey waiting for the end of the chapter. I cannot wait for the next one.
"I love these books!!!!!!!"
I guess in that Eduardo has the most beautiful and entrancing narration.
The prose, the story, the characters everything in fact!
The most amazing inflection for each character and his diction seems to be of the time - 1700's. It ipure listening pleasure or is it the quality of the writing? I think both.
Yes! I also did not want it to end, especially as it is the last in the series. Please can we have more of Matthew Corbett?
If you enjoy exquisite use of the English language, fast paced and original storylines with interesting historical details; a rich variety of characters you can see before you; narrated in a voice so sublime your other senses fade into the background, then this series of books are for you. But please see for yourself :-)
"Superb, superb, superb!"
I love the Matthew Corbett series. Great stories, great adventures and all narrated superbly. Highly recommended.
"Matthew Corbett's adventures go beyond"
This great series gets even better and travels to interesting places with Matthew coming into direct contact with his nefarious nemesis, Professor Fell. An exciting adventure with a satisfying resolution (though I am not especially happy with the Berry developments - cliched). Hopefully more, equally enjoyable, stories will continue to be produced.
This is not a starting point for new readers. I would recommend starting with book 2 "Queen of Bedlam" which is very accessible and then, when hooked, give the longer prequel "Speaks the Nightbird" a go.
The Narator is generally very good but his American English pronunciations can be aggravating at times and his regional accents are sometimes a bit wobbly (thus says a well travelled Scotsman).
It was the next installment of the Matthew Corbett books
Everything. The character really comes alive.
Obviously Matthew Corbett
Yes but time constraints do not allow.
I have just loved the whole series of the Matthew Corbett books. I have one left to go which I will listen to soon but am keeping it back as I know once I have listened to it there are no more available yet?
"Matthew can be SOOOOOO infuriating"
By the time you get to the 3rd book you lose all hope with Matthew ... he NEVER confides, NEVER shares, NEVER looks for help! Bottom line, although we're introduced to a plethora of other great characters - it's ALL about HIM and his daft decisions. It reminds me of the old black and white horror films where the woman would wake up to sounds of horror coming from low in the castles dungeons, and then she'd go and look!!! WHY?!?!?

So I purchased Alumni Game tickets via stubhub. What are my options? Only recieve my money back because I'm a second hand buyer or do I actually have a choice to keep the tickets for the 2023 Winter Classic?
Look at the second bullet in my post above, I'm sure you will have to go through StubHub. I have no idea how that will work though because I'm assuming the seller already received their money for them? I was thinking about this kind of situation earlier today but I honestly don't know. I'd contact StubHub. You can't be the only one that bought them from there.

These changes (the one you demoed) are one of the most basic things. I sincerely doubt they would love to use tools like these for simple changes like "Column Rename"
In your demo, if you display some COOOOOLLLL features that will WOOOW the customer that would be the selling point. I know you guys are just doing these as to show new things but the question is "Is this something people really looking for?"
In SQL 2005 there are so many new features added, if you could DEMO integration of your product with those new tool set, believe me that is what people would look for

UNIVERSITY PARK - The Big Ten's road warriors are heading to the Bayou for the NCAA tournament.
Resurgent Penn State (24-6) celebrated its most successful season in eight years with a No. 4 seed and a game Sunday against 13th-seed UTEP (29-3) in Baton Rouge, La. Win that contest and Penn State could get a second-round matchup with LSU on its home floor.
The Big Ten regular-season champions aren't fazed though with being shipped south for the NCAAs, a year after being placed in a bracket that allowed them stay home to play the first and second rounds in Happy Valley. Coach Coquese Washington's club was 10-3 away from home this season, including 7-1 in road conference games.
"Playing some of the tough road games this year and being successful on the road, I think that will help us going into the NCAA tournament," Washington said. "We don't play at home this year so we had to become road warriors, and I think we did that."
That road success allowed the Lady Lions to win their first Big Ten regular season title since 2004. They also posted their highest win total since 2004-05. It's the second straight NCAA bid under Washington's watch for Penn State, once a Top 25 staple before slipping in the last few years of longtime coach Rene Portland's tenure.
Washington took over in 2007, and the team has made incremental improvement since then to regain Big Ten contender status.
They made a huge step last season with a return to the NCAAs as a No. 6 seed with two games at home. It didn't matter in the second round, though, after DePaul rallied from 14 points down to beat the Lady Lions following two foul shots by Keisha Hampton with 4.9 seconds left.
Forward Mia Nickson said that team was young and inexperienced in postseason play.
"What we took away most, and what we instilled the whole season, was our defensive principles," Nickson said. The DePaul loss "didn't sit well with us, especially for the summer ... We didn't want to feel like that this year, and we took strides to be a better team."
Washington would like her team to strike the DePaul game from the collective memory.
"Last year is last year. We thought about DePaul in the spring and the summer, and then once we started this year, it's about 2012," she said. "That will be a learning experience, and has been a learning experience, but I think the whole tournament was a learning experience for us."
Penn State is in a bracket in which the regional finals will be played in Kingston, R.I. If the seeds hold, the Lady Lions could face top-seeded Connecticut.

Despite being blind folded for most of the night, Those who attended North Central Sight Services Inc.'s Dining in the Dark Saturday said the event was an "eye-opening experience."
Held at Pennsylvania College of Technology's Le Jeune Chef, the event took away participants' ability to see by placing a blindfold over their eyes during dinner.
"Things that were very simple before have become very complicated," said Amanda Velte, a participant, on the experience.
Article Photos
RASHELLE CAREY/Sun-Gazette
Elliot Strickland guides his fork with salad to his mouth, unaware of the size of the leaf of lettuce.
Heather Engle, director of programs and services, said the event was a "great" experience for diners, servers and North Central. She hoped that participants would leave with a better understanding of what those who are vision impaired go through on a daily basis.
"We don't want people to have pity instead we want them to have a better understanding," Engle said.
Upon being seated Debbie Decker, of Williamsport, said she was "a little nervous" for what the night would hold.
But there also was a personal connection to the night for Decker.
"My dad was legally blind so this gave me an opportunity to see how he felt," she explained.
Michael Smith, of Montoursville, called the experience, "humbling."
"You have to rely on a lot of other people," he said on how difficult it was to do something as simple as taking a sip of water.
Velte said she also relied on the servers to get her through dinner.
"We really had to rely on (the servers) to get us through this," she said. "We don't know where anything is. We don't even know if we're done (eating)."
In order to help the diners, Le Jeune Chef servers guided them on where everything was on the table and their plates.
"Especially in terms of the servers it's really important they be comfortable with serving guests that are blind or disabled," said Fred Becker, dean of the school of hospitality.
Participants were guided to their seats by restaurant staff and helped throughout the night.
"It's very kind of hectic and chaotic," said Amy Decker, first-year server.
"It's completely different (from other dinner services)," said Tiffany Edwards, first-year server.
Edwards explained that servers used the "clock method" to describe to diners where food was. For an example, servers would tell participants that a piece of food was at "1 o'clock" on their plate so they were able to find it.
Nate Hollick said that the experience was "interesting."
"I know it's something that as a blind person, you develop (the ability to do without seeing) I just wanted to get a feel for the daily what they go through daily," he said.
He added that one challenging experience of the night was when a server would refill his water glass, he was unable to find where they had placed it back on the table.
Finding eating utensils also was difficult for some diners.
"It's amazing," said Kevin Hastings, one of the diners. "You have to use your fingers (to eat). It certainly makes you appreciate the gift of sight."
Participants also noted how much more they now would appreciate having the ability to see.
"You take the simple things for granted," Smith said.
"You have to slow down," Hastings said. "You have to think three steps in front of you to do everything you take for granted."

Feds: FW couple kept Nigerian slave for 9 years
In federal records, she is known only by her initials. And her story is one of suffering beyond anything I can imagine:
She was a widowed mother in Nigeria, struggling to feed six young children. A Nigerian couple living in North Texas provided her fake immigration documents and lured her here, promising a salary and payments to her kids.
Here's what she allegedly got in return: 16-hour work days of cooking, cleaning and caring for the couple's kids — seven days a week, for nine years. Virtually no money or contact with the outside world. Forced sex with the man of the house.
An unnamed Catholic priest ultimately helped her to escape, federal records say.
Emmanuel Nnaji and wife Ngozi Nnaji are now charged with conspiracy, forced labor and other crimes. If convicted, they face up to 55 years in prison. Federal records say they have lived in Irving, Arlington and Fort Worth.
The man's adult son tells the Fort Worth Star-Telegram that the charges are bogus.
How many more cases like this are out there? Plenty, according to this U.S. State Department report.

'Expelled' US Envoy had Hired In-laws of Devyani's Maid?
By Devirupa Mitra | ENS - NEW DELHI
Published: 12th January 2014 07:33 AM
Last Updated: 12th January 2014 10:44 AM
A direct link seems to be emerging between the domestic assistant at the centre of the storm in diplomat Devyani Khobragade case and the US envoy who has been asked to be withdrawn by India, even as External Affairs Minister Salman Khurshid said there was no question of restoring privileges for the US embassy here.
It is suspected that in-laws of maid Sangeeta Richard may have been employed with Wayne May, regional security officer at the US embassy, whose presence is no longer wanted by India.
Neither the Ministry of External Affairs nor the US State Department has officially identified the US diplomat who will be withdrawn, though they have said the official has a similar director-level rank as Devyani Khobragade.
Official sources had said the diplomat was "involved in processes related to the Khobragade case and subsequent unilateral action by the US". The US diplomat has been given "little more than 48 hours".
Incidentally, the original complaint against Khobragade, accusing her of visa fraud and making false statement, was investigated and filed by DSS special agent Mark Smith and her arrest was also managed by the diplomatic security service.
There also seemed to be another reason for the special attention given to Richard's case — the elderly Richard couple had been inherited as driver and cook by various US diplomats who resided at the diplomatic residence in Aurangzeb Lane. One of the previous occupants of that address was Uzra Zaya, who is currently acting assistant secretary in the State Department's Bureau of Democracy, Human Rights and Labor.
Further, the air tickets for the family members — husband Philip Richard and children, Jennifer and Jatin Richard — were paid for by the US embassy's travel agency, availing of the exemption from duty for diplomats.

EAST LIVERPOOL - A 2013 budget almost identical to the previous year's will be presented for City Council's consideration at its meeting on Monday, recommended by the finance committee.
Appropriations totaling $16.7 million, including a $4.8 million general fund, include very little increases from 2012, according to Auditor Kim Woomer, who told the committee Tuesday that health insurance costs did rise by about $16 per month per employee.
In addition, the Broadway Wharf budget was increased from $1,000 to $2,200, which committee Chairman Sherrie Curtis said was the result of the volunteers who maintain the facility having to eliminate the pop machine, its primary fund-raising method, due to repeated vandalism.
She said for as hard as the volunteers work and as nice as the facility is kept, it was decided the extra funding was justified.
Councilman Ray Perorazio - a retired city firefighter himself - asked if the fire department's budget remained the same and was advised it had.
During the meeting, Perorazio said a proposed salary increase for employees is "going to look bad" if the city doesn't come up with money to clean up the former Riverview Florist property.
Service-Safety Director Ryan Estell pointed out the overall cleanup plan would have to include asbestos remediation which "is not cheap," but assured Perorazio, "I think there are some things we can do to make the property look better."
He said he will be bringing a proposal to council "very soon" for use of part of the property.
Meanwhile, Woomer will be investigating a question raised by Perorazio about $15,000 he said came from the former owner and was set aside for cleaning up the property.
Estell said the Patrick Foundation donated $7,500 for the cleanup, prompting Perorazio to say that $21,000, then, should be available. Woomer disputed those figures but agreed to research the issue.
Woomer said the salary hikes for employees, two new cruisers and a fit mask system mandated for the fire department have been included in the 2013 budget.
The committee agreed to forward the budget to council for at least its first reading.
The committee also forwarded for council's consideration a resolution opposing the passage of House Bill 5 by the Ohio General Assembly, which proposes uniformity for municipal income tax.
Chairman Sherrie Curtis reiterated her concern that the bill is a step toward centralization of tax collection and could result in a delay in receiving tax revenue as well as possible loss in revenue.
"I don't know if it does any good to send this to our state representatives, but if we remain silent, then shame on us. We get what we deserve," Curtis cautioned.
Mayor Jim Swoger reported on his upcoming trip to the nation's capital, where he will meet with Congressman Bill Johnson's staff, saying he has been asked by state Rep. Nick Barborak to broach the issue of sequestration and the damage it will cause this area.
He will also discuss during his visit the city's hiring of Better City LLC for revitalization and the need for money for razing blighted properties.
"Hopefully, they'll listen, and I honestly think they will," Swoger said.
Planning Director Bill Cowan addressed the committee about an upcoming Planning Commission meeting in regard to a developer seeking a zone change to pave the way for a new retail store in the East End, asking that council consider expediting its end of the process if the change is approved by the commission.
Council would have to consider the commission's recommendation and schedule a public hearing.
Cowan said a representative of the company interested in the property will be flying in from Tennessee to attend the commission meeting.

Sorry, Helen of Troy and every other beautiful woman in history. Aaron Paul believes no one could be as wonderful as his fiancée, Lauren Parsekian.
"She's the greatest woman that has ever existed. No offense to other women on this planet, but she is hands down the best," the Emmy-winning star of Breaking Bad – whose final season premieres Sunday night on AMC – tells GQ in its August issue.
Paul, 32, proposed to Parsekian, 24, in Paris this past New Year's Eve. She recently showed off her engagement ring in a Twitter post, and wrote: "I can't wait to marry you @aaronpaul_8."
They have not publicly announced a wedding date, but it seems they're in the thick of wedding planning. "That's taking up a lot of my time, which is so fun," he says.
Paul, who is famously conflicted in his role as Breaking Bad's foul-mouthed but good-hearted drug dealer Jesse Pinkman, seems to have found a straightforwardly pure soul in Parsekian. She is the founder of the Kind Campaign, a non-profit anti-bullying organization that helps girls abused by other girls.
The couple came together through music. "We'd met at Coachella [the California music festival], became friends," Paul says. "And then a year later, we fell in love at Coachella. We ran off together at Coachella. You know, first kiss on the Ferris wheel sort of thing."
It was unlike anything he had felt before. "You know when people say, 'When you know, you know'? It was crazy," he says. "Even leading up to the kiss on the Ferris wheel, I couldn't imagine myself being without her. … I was like, 'Wait, can this actually exist?' "
Paul's character, Jesse, is famous for two words: "b-tch" and "yo." Perhaps luckily for his relationship, only one of those words has become part of Paul's real-life vernacular.
"Every 'b-tch' is on the page; every 'yo' is on the page," he says of the Breaking Bad scripts. "Sometimes I'll add a 'b-tch' here and there or a couple of 'yo's. And 'yo' is in my day-to-day vocabulary now. I just cannot get it out."

Danielle N. Kellogg, charged in a November crash that killed an infant, pleaded guilty Wednesday to first-degree vehicular manslaughter, a higher charge than she initially faced.
Kellogg, 24, of Brant, her voice occasionally cracking, spoke softly as she stood before Erie County Judge Michael D'Amico in a Buffalo courtroom, answered his questions and pleaded guilty.
"I caused an accident," she replied, when asked by the judge about her crime. "I caused a death. And I had a prior [conviction for driving while impaired."
Assistant District Attorney Bethany A. Solek said Kellogg had cocaine and marijuana in her system at the time of the two-vehicle crash.
Kellogg also admitted to authorities that she drank several beers and smoked marijuana before the crash and had been falling asleep, Solek said.
Her blood-alcohol content was at least 0.13 percent at the time of the crash, well above the legal threshold, Solek said.
She faces up to 15 years in prison when sentenced on May 22.
The judge allowed Kellogg, of Brant Angola Road, to remain free on her previously posted $20,000 bail.
Her plea stems from the Nov. 27 crash she caused on Southwestern Boulevard in the Town of Brant that claimed the life of 7-month-old Baylee Marie Dion who was in the other vehicle with her mother.
Baylee's family members filled the first three rows of the public gallery in the packed courtroom.
Baylee's parents, Scott Dion and Denise Hine, declined to speak to reporters.
Their attorney said they would speak publicly after the sentencing.
"They're in grief," said attorney Stephen Boyd.
The parents, through Boyd, thanked District Attorney Frank A. Sedita III and his staff and the Erie County Sheriff's Office for their work on the case.
The authorities "put a ton of effort into this," Boyd said.
Kellogg was behind the wheel of a 2003 Ford Explorer SUV registered to a Fredonia man at about 9:05 a.m. when she crossed over the center line on Southwestern Boulevard on the Seneca Cattaraugus Reservation, the sheriff's office said.
She struck a 1997 Pontiac Grand Am driven by Hine, 31, of Hamburg, who tried to get out of the way of the oncoming SUV, sheriff's deputies said.
The force of the impact split Hine's car in two.
The infant, found 30 feet from the point of impact, died from blunt-force trauma, Solek said,
The crash occurred after Hine had just dropped off her 4-year-old daughter at school and was driving home with Baylee, who was strapped into her infant-carrier seat.
Hine was released from Erie County Medical Center several days after the crash.
Kellogg has a prior conviction in Chautauqua County for driving while impaired in 2009.
She originally was charged with second-degree vehicular manslaughter in the latest incident.
"In the course of our investigation with the Sheriff's Office, we determined a higher charge [was] warranted," Solek said.
Many family members in the courtroom wore buttons with Baylee's picture, and one wore a T-shirt with the infant's image.
For about 10 minutes before the plea, those in the courtroom sat quietly, and Kellogg sat alone behind the defense table, looking down at the floor, while the lawyers were meeting with the judge in his chambers.
The victim's family members would at times stare at Kellogg, but she made no eye contact with them.
At the hearing, Kellogg told the judge she sees a counselor weekly because of the crash.
"I suffer from post-traumatic stress syndrome," she said.co.

The Summerville High School girls' soccer team is off to a strong start this season.
On Friday, the Lady Green Wave defeated Goose Creek 6-2 to improve its regular season record to 5-3. Summerville has a 1-1 mark in region play with a win over Colleton County and a loss to Beaufort.
The team has a new coach, Brian DeBolt, but he has a lot of experienced players to work with as the Wave returned nine varsity lettermen this season: Tinslee Dilday, Madison Reeves, Hannah Potter, Taylor Edwards, Cyarah Wilson, Rachel Thurmes, Maggie Mayeaux, Jenny Matusik and Brianna Miner. Also on the squad are Madison Turner, Arianna Brown, Danielle Lodge, Gabrielle Colon, Summer Lundguist, Ashley McVicker, Emaleigh Tuggle and Anna Marie Henriquez.
The Summerville boys defeated Coffee County from Georgia 3-2 Friday to improve to 5-3-1 on the year. David Kennedy led the charge, scoring two Summerville goals.
The Summerville boys host Fort Dorchester Thursday while the Summerville girls travel to Fort Dorchester.
The Patriot boys improved to 5-4, 2-1 with a 5-0 victory over Colleton County Friday. Trevour Johnson led the charge, scoring two Fort goals.

Revenue, attendance up at Universal theme parks
Growth attributed to Wizarding World of Harry Potter attraction
Universal Orlando's parent company Comcast announced Wednesday that both attendance and visitor spending grew at all of its theme parks last year.
Cash flow, which is a measure of financial strength, jumped almost 10 percent from $867 million to $953 million, Comcast said, and total revenue was up almost 5 percent from last year to nearly $2.1 billion.
Comcast attributes much of the growth to Universal Orlando's Wizarding World of Harry Potter.
Three years after the attraction opened, the fan frenzy that began then shows no signs of slowing down.
Universal hopes to build on that success with the new Transformers ride set to open at Universal Orlando this summer.

Kony Captured
LRA Crisis Tracker
The KONY 2012 campaign started as an experiment. Could an online video make an obscure war criminal famous? And if he was famous, would the world work together to stop him?
The experiment yielded the fastest growing viral video of all time. The KONY 2012 film reached 100 million views in 6 days, and 3.7 million people pledged their support for efforts to arrest Joseph Kony.
It proved our theory that if people only knew what Kony had been getting away with, they would be as outraged as we were. But knowing is only half the battle - Joseph Kony is still out there.
Kony Captured
Bring awareness to Kony's human rights abuses and bring him to justice.
Communities Protected
Significantly expand programs that counteract LRA violence and protect communities in central Africa.
International Support
Have leaders from across the globe renew their commitments to stopping Joseph Kony and his LRA.
Global Attention
Make Joseph Kony a household name, and get as many people as possible to pledge their support for efforts to stop LRA violence.
As a result of KONY 2012, millions of people learned about Joseph Kony and the LRA. International leaders and young people alike committed to doing anything they could to end the war.
We hosted a Global Summit on the LRA which brought international leaders and experts together to renew their support to end the LRA conflict. Thousands rallied in Washington, DC as a sign of solidarity on the issue. The U.S. advisors extended their deployment to assist the African Union in the counter-LRA mission. Funding for our programs allowed us to expand in ways we never thought possible.
During our KONY 2012 campaign, we experienced a dramatic spike in funding that allowed us to significantly expand our protection and recovery programs in East and central Africa. We were committed to honoring the donors who gave in response to the campaign, and poured the funding straight into our programs: the Early Warning Network now protects 76 vulnerable communities, 1.4 million defection fliers have been distributed.
The legacy of these donations stands alone as an epic victory toward impacting the lives of those affected by the LRA conflict.View annual report

Scarlet fever is a disease caused by an infection with group A beta-hemolytic streptococcal bacteria that occurs in a small percentage of people with strep throat. The illness typically begins with a fever and sore throat. It may be accompanied by chills, vomiting, abdominal pain and malaise. The streptococcal bacteria produces a toxin that causes a rash that appears one to two days after the onset of illness. The rash initially appears on the neck and chest, then spreads over the body. While the rash is still red, the patient may develop Pastia's lines, bright red coloration of the creases under the arm and in the groin.

Kevin: Give me a break! I'm 52, and it was not so long ago when 'community service' was a punishment that was handed down as an alternative sentence to jail time for small crimes. Now we have a whole generation (probably two) that has been brain washed into thinking that they have to do community service as a prerequisite to just about anything of value. Want to be in National Honor Society? Community service. Want to get Confirmation in the Church? Community service. Want to get into college? Community service. And now we have Clinton proposing that the government enlist legions of their newly brainwashed useful idiots to sign up for more free work? I'm sorry, but this is just thinly disguised involuntary servitude/slavery. When I work, I get paid. And no, the private sector does not need another costly mandate from our federal overlords requiring us to give time off to our new community service volunteers. I'm sure that it is a shock to Clinton and other libtards everywhere, but private businesses have plenty to do without having to subsidize more non-productive government nonsense.

5 Ways You Know It's Time to Get Married
I've talked about my often-disastrous relationships in a number of my columns, and every time I do, I get dozens of messages from people asking me to elaborate. Not that I'm an expert -- it's more like how you see a guy come screaming out of the woods covered in bees and you ask him where he found the hive, so you can avoid it.
So, the most common question I get (besides "Will you please stop sending me pictures of your penis?") is "How do I know if this is the one?" which I think is a stealth way of asking me, "How can I avoid the hellish divorce that haunts your memories?"
Well, if you want to avoid the bees, I say you should always keep in mind ...
#5. You Don't Have to Impress Each Other
If you try to pet 49 stray cats, and all of them embed their claws in your forearm, you're going to assume that the 50th will, too. Even if it's purring and rubbing all over your ankles, you bury your hands in your pockets and punt that fucker like the winning field goal at the Super Bowl.
Since most of us don't find our "true love" on the first shot, we're cursed to endure attempt after attempt at connecting with people who we normally wouldn't allow into the trunk of our car, let alone our personal, emotional space. After a while, we learn that dating equals pain ... and I can't speak for women, but guys tend to emotionally shut down to avoid that pain. They build a phony version of themselves to send on dates on their behalf, learning to fake their way through simple smalltalk in hopes of constructing a panties rug at the foot of their bed.
Works every time, baby.
The problem is that if you wall yourself off from every single person you meet, the chances of skipping right past the one who is actually compatible with you are near 100 percent.
Every woman I dated since my divorce several years ago felt the cold, dead disconnection behind my witty banter. Everything was just an act. Women were allowed on the porch, but if they wanted to see the living room, they had to look through the windows.
What? Don't judge me, man.
Try This:
There are several ways to do this, but the result has to be the same: it's you getting to a point where you can share the worst parts of yourself and not judge the other person when they do the same. This is why meeting on the Internet works so well for some people -- they actually find it easier to be open and honest with a faceless person. For other people, they try dating somebody they've already become friends with -- they were at the party where you accidentally pooped yourself in high school, there's no need to pretend you're suave. Or, maybe you just date somebody long enough that those barriers all fall down one by one, against your will.
I'll still never live down the time she saw me without my shirt on.
In my particular case, three years ago I met a woman named Shaniqua Childpuncher (who for privacy's sake we'll call "Emily"), but not in a dating situation. We were just two people who made dick jokes with each other online, with no real plans for hooking up or even flirting for that matter. Since we didn't have any of that stuff at stake, we didn't have to worry about censoring ourselves or using the "date voice." We could be open in the way that friends are when sharing crude jokes -- baring disfiguring emotional scars and everything else. No subject is off limits in a conversation like that; the old addictions, horrifying relationships, the vices and embarrassing childhood photos (her pics came complete with boyband posters on her bedroom walls, mine were from the time I was in an actual boy band). It progressed from there. We've lived together for over two years now, and not once have either of us considered that this might not be the right thing.
Obviously my exact process doesn't work for everybody -- I don't doubt that there are dudes who meet girls at night clubs and/or costume orgies who, over time, bring down those barriers and actually get honest with the person they're sexing down, instead of vice versa. The point is that you have to get past the stage where the relationship depends entirely on how well you're hiding your flaws from each other.
"No, there's nothing wrong with my nose, why do you ask?"
Of course that involves a certain amount of trust, which means ...
#4. You Have Learned How to Trust
I can't tell you how many friends I've seen fly into jealous fits because their wife had gone out shopping 45 minutes ago, and it normally only takes her 43 minutes. They just know she's out fucking someone else. Even after she returns with a car full of groceries and a timestamped receipt, they can just smell the extra dicks on her.
I used to be like that. My ex used to work as a bartender at a shitty pub. Before heading out, she'd put on makeup ... which she never did when she was off. I'd look down at her low-cut top, and I was absolutely certain that before the end of the night, she'd be nailing some dude right there on top of the bar. Some nights, I'd make her change outfits.
"No, you're not going out wearing fruit again. Go change."
It used to cause major arguments because my reaction was directly telling her, "I don't trust you." And I didn't. Even when I knew that the difference between $20 and $120 in tips was showing a little extra cleavage and that it was part of the job, in the same way that this job involves me talking a certain amount about my dick.
Try This:
You're not born with the ability to trust -- as a newborn baby, you screamed your head off the moment Mom left the room, for fear you'd been abandoned. Trust is learned. I never had a reason to trust someone in my younger years, so my default position was to assume the worst. She's working late? Yeah, working some dude's dick! Going out to eat with friends? More like going out to eat with multiple dicks slapping her boobs! The other person's actual track record had nothing to do with it.
"I have to go. No, I'm not fucking dudes in front of the kids."
It wasn't until I met Emily that I really felt secure, and it goes back to that openness that I talked about earlier. When someone bares as much dirty laundry as we both have, you don't really feel that they have any room to hide anything. If she's shared this much of herself with me, she couldn't hide something even if she wanted to. So if she told me that she was going to take a few days to go to an undisclosed location for an unexplained reason, I'd be totally fine with it. She's earned the trust, and this time I'm man enough to give it.
And don't storm into the comments telling a story about how this one time your mistrust paid off ("She told me she had to be on the road 10 months out of the year as a door-to-door cock inspector, but I suspected she was really having an affair and I WAS RIGHT!"). I'm saying that if the mistrust is there, the relationship is fucked either way. Either they're not trustworthy, or you're not secure enough to let your guard down even if they are.
#3. You Become Friends (at Some Point)
When I was younger, I used to think it was impossible to be friends with someone you're dating. The friendship would kill the romance, right? Since friendship is about doing boring shit together, and romance is about fucking on the hood of a Trans-Am while Def Leppard is playing on the radio?
But in my later years I've realized that every successful relationship has this point at their core: If you take out the romantic connection, those two people would still hang out like nothing had changed. Well, besides all the dirty, filthy fucking.
"Just checking you for body lice, buddy."
I was never friends in past relationships because I put the "butterflies in my stomach" feeling first, and the possibility of touching boobs second. I don't really remember a third priority on that list. When I hung around women, I'd say what I thought they wanted me to say. If they weren't into my hobbies, I'd never mention them. I modified my warped sense of humor around them to be whatever watered down version I thought they'd find acceptable. At every level, everything about our connection was contrived.
Try This:
You can't make a relationship work unless you actually enjoy each other's non-sex company. If that sounds like rock-stupid obvious advice, then you don't realize what a massive number of married couples didn't follow it before shopping for rings.
"I hate you so much it actually gives me an erection."
And please, please note that when I talk about enjoying the girl's company, I am not referring to that breathless worship where you think she's a magical goddess, where you feel the gut butterflies every time she walks past and you go aaaawwwww every time she farts. Pop songs have taught you this is what it's all about ("Every Little Thing She Does is Magic"? Fuck you, Sting, your songs are full of bad relationship advice). If you're still in "Every Little Thing She Does is Magic" mode, you don't even fucking know this person. You're still treating them the way you would treat a celebrity, projecting onto the real person a fantasy that lives in your head. Anyone who says they're still feeling the butterflies after fifty years of marriage needs to see a cardiologist because there's some serious medical shit that needs fixed right goddamn now.
I don't want to make it sound like you have to be friends first and then start boning from there -- this leads to a lot of awful friendships where the girl thinks she has a good male buddy and the guy thinks he's inching her closer to his boner. That friendship is never genuine because they both have very different ideas about what's going on.
And neither of those ideas end with an orgasm that isn't self-inflicted.
But it works for some people and it did work for me. I was friends with Emily first and not only did I regularly unleash every retarded joke about balls that popped into my head, but our entire friendship was based around it. For instance, one of my most passionate creative pursuits in life is playing sports video games and thinking up profane names for the players. She joined me in spending hours in front of the character editor in NBA 2K, creating Point Guard "Hunchfuck Clusterbutt" and Center "Browncock Shitdents," laughing until we couldn't breathe. She made me sit down and watch the entire run of Battlestar Galactica (and I'm a guy who previously went most of a decade without watching TV). We liked hanging out, is what I'm saying.
And that thing people get in their heads, that friendship and relationships are opposite things, it's hard to explain but it's a different flavor of friendship, one where sex can break out at any time. Maybe we need a new word for it (and something less clinical sounding than "compatibility"). But no matter what you call it, that connection is the core of the relationship. Not the sex, not romance. And it's not just the ability to tolerate each other in between the fun stuff.
"What do you not get about this? When we're not fucking, you find another room."

If there was a favorite it may have been State Sen. Larry Grooms. The popular Berkeley County legislator was one of the first candidates to throw his hat in the ring for the seat last held by U.S. Sen. Tim Scott.
"I feel really good," Grooms said. "The campaign is now hitting on all cylinders."
The Grooms campaign made news at the event: Berkeley County GOP Chairman Tim Callanan announced that he is resigning his post with the party to become Grooms' general campaign manager. Callanan, who will be replaced by Samuel Rivers Jr. as party chairman, will remain on Berkeley County Council.
Callanan said he wrestled with whether to leave the chairmanship to work for Grooms, but in the end Grooms' candidacy was too exciting to turn down.
"How often in your life will you actually be able to do something you love, and get paid for it?" Callanan said.
Callanan said Grooms is the best candidate for the job: "Even if I had the pick of all 16, there is no question it would be Larry."
Grooms faces stiff competition for the seat – and lots of it.
Former South Carolina Gov. Mark Sanford received a warm welcome Saturday morning. Sanford held the District 1 seat before he became governor.
"Y'all have been remarkably kind to me," Sanford said. "This is an unexpected turn for me … I thought politics was over."
Sanford said he has "learned a lot about grace, and a lot about forgiveness" over the past two years.
Teddy Turner, the son of media mogul Ted Turner, told the audience that he and his famous father "don't agree on politics, obviously."
Turner jokingly thanked the audience for listening to him "at the Larry Grooms breakfast."
Candidate Shawn Pinkston of Daniel Island said that his campaign is going well, and that the winner of the race will be the person who best connects with voters. "This is going to be won by going door-to-door," he said.
Joining Grooms, Sanford, Turner and Pinkston on the stump were Keith Blanford, Ric Bryant, Jonathan Hoffman, Jeff King, John Kuhn, Chip Limehouse, Elizabeth Moffly, Ray Nash and Andy Patrick.

The Buffalo region has received less than half of the money it was promised for road construction this fiscal year, and local state lawmakers want to know why.
The state's transportation chief, meanwhile, said she'd give her "best efforts" to deliver the area its fair share of funding, but gave no guarantees.
The issue came to light Thursday in Albany during a joint legislative budget hearing with state Transportation Commissioner Joan McDonald.
While the hearing focused on funding for 2013-14, State Sen. Timothy M. Kennedy pointed out that this fiscal year's transportation budget designated $166 million for Western New York.
But so far, Kennedy said, only $72 million of that money has been spent in the region.
"We have a little more than $90 million that we're short from what's been promised up to this point," Kennedy said.
Kennedy, D-Buffalo, previously noted that other regions have received the full amount they were promised, or in some cases more.
McDonald did not dispute those figures for Western New York, and didn't offer an explanation as to why the funding has been so slow in arriving.
Instead, McDonald said it's the agency's intent to "use all our best efforts" to bid out those capital projects that the DOT committed to do this fiscal year, which ends March 31.
"So you're expecting, in the course of the next two months or so, we're going to be looking at $90 million or so?" Kennedy asked her.
"I don't have the specifics in front of me," McDonald said, "but we are using every effort to get the remaining projects that need to be let in [the Buffalo region] and across the state obligated so that we can start the construction season and put people to work."
"That would be very welcome news to the folks in Western New York," Kennedy said.
Alan Pero, president of Fair Apportionment of Infrastructure Revenue – a coalition of Western New York laborers, consultants and contractors involved in the construction industry – testified at Thursday's hearing and called 2012 the "lost construction season" for the Buffalo region.
It was the result of "the perfect storm of screw-ups" by the DOT related to design, bidding and letting of projects, which led to high unemployment across the region's construction industry during the 2012 season, Pero said.
He asked that the DOT fix the "systemic problem" within the department so these issues don't happen again.
In another matter, the commissioner said the DOT has begun a "plausibility review" to consider alternatives to the Skyway.
"I expect to receive that in the near future," McDonald said of the Skyway report. "The process is under way right now."
Late last year, she told Rep. Brian Higgins, D-Buffalo, a longtime advocate for removing the Skyway, that she had directed staff to conduct a review of alternatives to the towering concrete connector between Buffalo's downtown and the outer harbor.
When asked by Kennedy for an update on Thursday, McDonald said the review is being done from the "macro perspective" on how alternatives to the Skyway would impact the City of Buffalo.
McDonald did not put a timetable on the study, but said when it's complete, the DOT will sit down with Higgins and Kennedy to explain the results.
"Would you be willing to come up and give us the findings when they're completed?" Kennedy said.
"I'd be happy to," McDonald said.

Two more players will come off South Carolina's board this week.
Wide receiver Blake Bone of Woodruff plans to reveal his decision Tuesday. Bone has USC, Kentucky, Louisville and Mississippi on his short list. In late July, Bone stated that USC was his favorite, but with two receivers committed for the 2014 class and only a few spots left, the Gamecocks may not have room for Bone. Some Kentucky recruiting observers are highly optimistic about the Wildcats' chances to land Bone. He visited Kentucky and USC this summer.
Defensive lineman Peyton Newell of Hiawatha, Kan., will announce for either USC or Nebraska on Friday. Newell has been very quiet regarding his recruiting in recent weeks because of his focus on school and his upcoming season.
"There's nothing really new," he said. "Just waiting for August 30."
Newell said he's been in touch with USC recruiter GA Mangus.
"I've had several letters and messages from coach Mangus a few times," he said. And Newell believes he's still wanted by the Gamecocks. "Yeah, I definitely get that impression that they do," he said. Newell has also had Kansas and Kansas State on his short list.
USC continues to wait on the official word from DE Dante Sawyer of Suwanee, Ga. USC, Tennessee, Georgia and Auburn are the four he's been considering and Sawyer has said he would have a decision by the end of August.
In other recruiting news:
Defensive end Jessie Aniebonam of Olney, Md., who had Clemson in his final five, committed to Maryland last week.
Jefferie Gibson of Hope Mills, N.C., an athlete who committed to N.C. State over Clemson in June, announced Sunday he has decommitted and is considering the Tigers along with the Wolfpack, North Carolina and others. Gibson committed to N.C. State as a receiver, while Clemson is recruiting him as a safety. He plans to be at Clemson's game Saturday.
Offensive lineman David Sharpe of Jacksonville, Fla., plans to be at Clemson for the Georgia game. He visited USC in the summer. Among his other offers are Florida, Florida State, Alabama, Georgia, North Carolina, Miami, Michigan State and Ohio State.
Clemson and USC have some catching up to do when it comes to junior DE Michael Barnett (6-4, 248) of Woodland. Right now, he favors Virginia Tech, Florida and Florida State, in that order. Clemson has offered Barnett but USC has not at this point.
Junior OL Steven Gonzalez (6-5, 310) of Union City, N.J., named USC and Rutgers as his early leaders.
"I don't have any favorites right now, but I would say that of the schools that have offered me, I like South Carolina and Rutgers," he said. He has not visited USC but hopes to get down for a game this season. USC, Rutgers, Louisville, Boston College, Virginia, UMass and Syracuse have offered, and he's getting interest from Miami, Florida State, Alabama, Penn State, Ohio State and Notre Dame among others. He camped at Rutgers and Miami this summer and took a visit to Penn State.
Junior WR Freddie Phillips of Pelion will be in Atlanta for Georgia Tech's season opener versus Elon. Phillips says recruiting is picking up, though he's awaiting his first offer. He continues to hear from USC, Clemson, Georgia Tech, Florida, Florida State and North Carolina among others.
"I think Georgia Tech is showing the most interest right now, since they've invited me to their first game," he said. "I like them a lot. They have a great history, and they also have a lot of receivers doing big things in the NFL."
The Gamecocks and Tigers have maintained contact with Phillips, and he plans to attend games at each school this season. He does not have any favorites.
Junior LB Jeffery Holland (6-3, 230) of Jacksonville, Fla., has an offer from Clemson and Georgia and plans to attend the season opener between the two schools at Death Valley. It will be Holland's first trip to Clemson's campus. He has over 40 offers, including USC, Florida, Florida State, Miami, North Carolina, Ohio State, Virginia Tech, Tennessee, Alabama, Louisville, Auburn, Arkansas, N.C. State, Mississippi State, Notre Dame and Penn State. Holland took an unofficial visit to USC this summer and would like to get back for a game this season. Other schools he has visited include Ohio State, Virginia Tech, North Carolina, Florida and Florida State. Holland does not have any favorites.
Junior DE Clelin Ferrell (6-5, 220) of Richmond visited USC this summer and is showing a lot of interest in the Gamecocks. Ferrell has an offer from USC and met with assistant Deke Adams while on campus. Clemson, Florida State, Penn State, Iowa, Charlotte, Virginia, Virginia Tech and James Madison have also offered. Though he has not visited Clemson to date, Ferrell has interest in the Tigers. He would like to attend games at USC and Clemson this fall, as well as Virginia, Virginia Tech and James Madison. As a sophomore, he totaled 91/2 sacks, 26 tackles for loss and two forced fumbles. Ferrell does not have any favorites.
Junior DB Terry Godwin of Hogansville, Ga., participated in USC's Black Magic Camp last month, and the experience proved positive from a Gamecocks standpoint. "It was great," Godwin said. "The coaches, we all got along great. They treated my mom real well. It was awesome."
Godwin also got to Georgia this summer. USC and Clemson are two of his offers, along with Alabama, Auburn, Florida, Florida State, Louisville, Mississippi, North Carolina, Tennessee, Vanderbilt and Virginia.
Godwin does not have favorites, but his USC visit helped the Gamecocks' cause. "I like them, but I'm still open to a lot more schools," he said. That includes Clemson, which he has not yet visited. Last season at cornerback, he had four interceptions and 49 tackles. He also plays wide receiver.
Basketball news
Isaiah Wilkins of Suwanee, Ga., has trimmed his list to Memphis, Miami, SMU, Virginia and Wichita State. Clemson was one of the schools cut from his list.
Junior Tevin Mack of Dreher visited Georgia on Sunday. He visited Clemson earlier in the month.
Junior Jawun Evans is leaving Greenville Legacy Charter School and transferring to Kimball High in Dallas. Clemson and USC are among his offers. He also has offers from SMU, Illinois, DePaul, Cincinnati and Southern Cal.

The #72 Stetson men's tennis team (3-0) used another strong performance in singles play to defeat Florida A&M (2-7) by a score of 5-2 on Sunday afternoon at the Mandy Stoll Tennis Center.
"We played a great match today," Director of Tennis Pierre Pilote said after the match. "[It was] particularly well played considering we didn't compete in the last 14 days."
Florida A&M opened the match by taking the doubles point from Stetson. Freshman Egor Panyushkin and sophomore Chester Espie were defeated by Takura Happy and Temuera Asafu-Adjaye 8-5. Freshmen Capit Kapukiran and Laurynas Antropikas lost a tight match, falling to Zack Evenden and Admire Mushoga by a score of 8-7 (6), securing the doubles point for the Rattlers.
FAMU has proven to be difficult in doubles play this season, as its number one pair defeated USF's #47 ranked doubles team in the country on Saturday. "The doubles point level was excellent," Assistant Coach Christophe Noblet said. "We started a little slow but we still had chances to win it. Florida A&M has formidable doubles pairs."
In singles play, Panyushkin won by way of retirement from the five position to tie the match early on at 1-1. Senior Didrik Berg was then defeated by C. Salif Kante by a score of 6-4, 6-0.
The Hatters won the final four singles matches, starting with Antropikas's 6-1, 6-4 victory against Chidi Gabriel. Chester Espie followed that by defeating Asafu-Adjaye by a score of 6-4, 6-2. Simon Julin clinched the match for Stetson with his 7-5, 6-2 victory against Mushonga. Cahit Kapukiran rounded out singles play with a 6-2, 3-6, 6-3 victory against Evenden.
"I am very proud of our guys for remaining calm and focused in a very spirited match," Pilote said. "Now that we are back in a normal match schedule, I expect our young team to continue improving with each match."
Stetson returns to action a week from today when the team hosts Florida Atlantic on Feb. 24. The match is scheduled to begin at 1:00 p.m. at the Mandy Stoll Tennis Center.
Match notes: Berg and Riseng were winning the tiebreak in doubles 3-2 before the match was stopped ... Panyushkin won the first set 6-4 before his opponent retired ... FAMU lost 4-3 against #55 USF on Saturday.

RIDGLEY - Philip Barbour opened the season with a 2-0 win over Frankfort on Saturday.
Colts head coach Ron Jones said his team played a very "balanced" game and he is "pleased" with the performance. During the contest, senior Nick Triplett scored the first goal at the 14-minute mark of the first half. Junior Isaiah Summerfield added the second goal with 5:00 left in regulation.
"Our kids played very well," Jones said. "It was probably the best my team has ever communicated. I've been trying to give the captains more authority and the seniors more responsibility to make calls on the field."
The Colts dominated the game with 15 shots on goal compared to five attempted by the Falcons. However, Jones said the deciding factor was his team's ability to control the pace of the game from the middle of the field.
"Our defense is good and tight," Jones said. "It's a beautiful thing. We stuffed them at midfield. Ben Ball and Shay Mitchell did an excellent job on defense and kept the ball from crossing midfield most of the match. Not much gets past those guys."
In the net, goalkeepers Micah Shahan and Triplett combined to keep Frankfort scoreless. Shahan played in the goal during the first half and Triplett minded the net in the second half.
"I thought the goalkeeping was excellent," Jones said. "I hope they can continue to play this well all season."
The Colts will host Pocahontas County at 5 p.m. on Tuesday.
B-U 16, Brooke 1
WELLSBURG - Buckhannon-Upshur's offense was on target early and often as the Bucs opened the season with a 16-1 win over Brooke on Saturday.
Dylan Hall and Marty Elliot each had four goals for B-U, while Josh Tenney and Dakota McCartney added a pair of goals. Other goal scorers included Jacob Kennedy, Lucas Gullo, Matt McCoy and Christian Hamrick.
It's difficult to pinpoint the efforts of just a one or a few players when we had 80 minutes of complete team soccer," Buc coach Mike Donato said. "We wanted to set the tone of the game early and I believe we did that. Our game plan was to come out fast and and utilize the outside of the field, and with most of our goals coming from crosses, we accomplished that.
"Our reserves and (junior varsity) players got to see a lot of time today. Big parts of each half were spent placing them near a varsity player to learn where to position themselves, timing their runs and how and where to recover."
Chris Orwig has two saves in net for B-U, which held a 31-3 advantage on shots on goal.
The Bucs will host Morgantown at 8 p.m. on Tuesday for a non-conference contest.

NSCLC is "Major Battlefield" as Merck,...
Clinical detection methods are taking to the field, boosting the capabilities of point-of-care biodetection devices for clinical use as well as battlefield diagnoses. Speakers at Select Biosciences' "Advances in Biodetection Technology" held in London last month outlined their work in developing fluorescent imaging for explosive particulates and several approaches to integrated PCR amplification and detection for point-of-care applications and environmental field work. Rapidity was a hallmark of most of the advances.
Chemists at the University of California, San Diego have developed a fluorescent imaging method to detect explosive particulates, like those left behind in the bomb-making process. Recently commercialized by RedXDefense, the system detects nitro compounds and either quenches or lights up the fluorescent sensor, according to William Trogler, Ph.D., professor of chemistry and biochemistry. The same technology also can be applied to hydrogen peroxide, an ingredient in many homemade explosives. Sensitivity is in the range of nanograms to picograms. "The advantage," Dr. Trogler said, "is that it is a really inexpensive, intuitive visual indicator." Results can be seen by black light, he added.
To advance that work, Dr. Trogler and his colleagues are exploring selectivity issues, trying to develop a sensor that also can identify specific explosives.
Another project, still in the early research stage, involves using hollow nanoshells as biodetectors.
"We're looking at nanoshells as nanosensors in an aqueous environment," he said. Specifically, a functionalized nanoshell with a hydrophobic coating could be used to separate and concentrate targeted analytes from solution, so the encapsulated polymer-based sensor could detect its presence as the nanoshell dissolved.
These nanoshells may also be used in vivo as probes and for target delivery. "We're looking at them to deliver chemotherapy," Dr. Trogler said. Because they are stable, they also may have promise as imaging agents.
At Network Biosystems, researchers are developing a fully integrated, "samples-in/results-out" microfluidic system that will allow multilocus sequencing of clinical or biothreat pathogens in complex samples.
"The environmental system would function autonomously in the field, and the clinical system would be automated and used by nontechnical operators in the emergency room or on the battlefield," Richard Selden, M.D., Ph.D., executive chairman, elaborated. Therefore, ease of use is vital.
Real-time DNA sequencing has the potential to dramatically improve both clinical diagnostics and biodefense, he said, "by distinguishing between pathogens and their nonpathogenic near neighbors to generate actionable information." Usefulness is further enhanced by speed. Samples-in/results-out time is about one hour, versus days to weeks in the laboratory, Dr. Selden explained.
The automated, focused sequencing system is divided into purification, amplification, Sanger sequencing, separation, and detection steps. "We're focused now on integrating the individual microfluidic components into a single system."
Initially, nucleic acids are purified and concentrated to relatively small volumes of 10 to 100 microliters and subjected to highly multiplexed amplification by PCR. "The amplified regions are then subjected to Sanger sequencing, after which Genebench™ separation and detection technology is employed," Dr. Selden explained. A single sample is interrogated for a large set of biothreats, and multiple loci are sequenced per agent.
Les Baillie, Ph.D., professor of microbiology at Welsh School of Pharmacy, is developing assays to detect nanogram levels of anthrax biomarkers in human blood within 30 seconds. The assay is designed for use by first responders—police, fire, and EMTs—working with crude samples, Dr. Baillie said.
The assays are based on microwave-accelerated metal-enhanced fluorescence (MAMEF), pioneered by Chris Geddes, Ph.D., a professor at the University of Maryland, who has determined that fluorescent probes work better in close proximity to silver surfaces. In fact, many different metals can be used, and 1,000-fold enhancement is possible, Dr. Baillie said. Therefore, nucleic acid amplification isn't necessary for the detection of genome sequences.
Anthrax spores are highly resistant and can remain in the environment for long periods of time. The researchers recently reported that DNA from Bacillus anthracis spores was detected within a minute in the ng/µL concentration range using low-power focused microwave heating. With this technology, "the microwaves break the resistant spores open in about 30 seconds and also speed up biological recognition," Dr. Baillie said. Results "are as specific as can be," correctly distinguishing between B. anthracis and B. cereus, a nonvirulent close relative.
Dr. Baillie is working with the U.K. Ministry of Defence and the U.S. Department of Defense. In addition, he has a close collaboration with Dr. Geddes, who founded The Institute of Fluorescence and also Plasmonix, which will commercialize metal-enhanced fluorescence (MEF) technology.
According to Dr. Geddes, MEF technology has numerous applications outside of biodetection. It can increase the sensitivity and speed of many diagnostic and biological assays, he reported, including two tests in development that work within 20 seconds—one for enzymes that are elevated as a result of myocardial infarction and another for chlamydia.
