After being swept in the 2013 NBA playoffs by the Miami Heat, the Milwaukee Bucks might have a tough time distinguishing perception from reality.
Losing to the defending champions is nothing to get overly upset about.
But regardless of the outcome, the series provided several young players with playoff experience and could prove to be very beneficial in the near future.
And despite not winning a game, there are some positive things that the Bucks can take away from the short four-game series.
On the other hand, there were some negatives mixed in the pile.
Separating the two from one another is not always easy, but during the offseason that's exactly what the front office must do.

Residents of Carlise Borough could be facing a 7 percent property tax increase next year.
Borough Council members said the increase would generate an extra $300,000, all of which would go to the fire department.
Borough President Perry Heath is calling the hike a "fire tax."
Heath said the money will stabilize the department and make sure it can continue to serve the public.
Despite the proposed tax hike, some firefighters said that money still might not be enough.
"We think that it's very important that we stabilize funding and give them a dedicated source of funding. Consequently we're contemplating a fire tax in order to do just that," said Union Fire Co. President Amy Myers. "The $300,000 will help, but we're still going to rely on the public support to continue funding us because we are primarily a volunteer organization."
The proposal is scheduled to be voted on next month.

Featured Golf News
New Doak Course at Dismal River Adds to Sand Hills Reputation as Golf Destination
It seems rather incomprehensible that the terrain that most closely mimics the ancient golfing grounds of the British Isles is in the heartland of America 1,800 miles from the Atlantic Ocean and about 1,000 from the Pacific.
One of the Holes at Doak's New Course at Dismal River
The high prairie of western Nebraska is a vast and wild land of rolling, vegetated dunes on top of an ocean of fine sand, which in turn sits on top of one of the world's great freshwater reservoirs, the Ogalalla Aquifer.
At the time of western migration in the late-1800s, the high prairie was where great herds of buffalo roamed. Today, the place is home to huge herds of beef cattle. And, recently, some golfing pilgrims have started roaming about the dunes taking part in an experience unique in America.
The "discovery" of the Nebraska Sand Hills as a great place for golf began in 1995 with the construction of the private Coore & Crenshaw-designed Sand Hills Golf Club near Mullen (population 351). Sand Hills has gone on to be ranked as the No. 1 Modern Course in America by Golfweek Magazine several years running.
Two guys who worked for Crenshaw and Coore at Sand Hills, Dave Axland and Dan Proctor, went on to design and build the Wild Horse Club in Gothenburg and Bayside Golf Club in Ogalalla in 1999.
The Dunes Course at the Prairie Club
Since then two remote destinations have opened: Dismal River Club near Mullen and the Prairie Club in Valentine, just south of the South Dakota border. When Jack Nicklaus first visited the Dismal River site, he said, "It was like stepping back in time and seeing what the dunes of northeast Scotland must have looked like a hundred years ago."
His signature course, crafted with associate Chris Cochran, opened for play in 2006. Now, Dismal River will be opening a second course; the new Tom Doak design is set to open in July 2013.
The biggest Sand Hills resort is the Prairie Club. The golf is spectacular at the brawny Tom Lehman-designed Dunes Course, which is augmented by the more traditional Graham Marsh-designed Pines Course and Gil Hanse's par-3 Horse Course. The club also offers luxury lodging in the clubhouse, or guests can stay in four large cabins on the banks of the Snake River Canyon.
The new, as-yet unnamed Doak course at Dismal River is very impressive and is certain to raise the profile of the club in particular and the Sand Hills in general as a destination. After touring the new layout in June, I had a chance to discuss the project with Doak.
Wayne Mills: When did you first get involved in the development of the
Dismal River project?
Tom Doak: Chris (Johnston, part owner and CEO) invited me to come take a look at it in the fall of 2010.
WM: Had you ever been to the site before and if so what were your impressions?
TD: I was there five to six years before, when the original owners were interviewing architects for the first course. But I hadn't had a map to play around with before I saw it, so I was somewhat disoriented, and it was flurrying snow on top of that, so I really didn't get a good impression of the land. They only showed me around the land where the Nicklaus course is today, not down by the river.
WM: What were your impressions of the site when you did visit?
Tom Doak (photo courtesy of Graham Cunningham)
TD: I knew once Chris sent the map that I would want to gravitate down toward the river. It's a unique feature that none of the other courses in the region have to use, both the river and then the giant bluff on the opposite bank. It helps orient the golfer, whereas on other courses in the area, you sometimes just feel lost among all the dunes.
WM: Were there any limitations to where on the site you could go with the routing other than the obvious physical ones?
TD: Not that I knew. Chris was reluctant to go down to the river at first, because there are some springs down there, and because he didn't know if there would be any environmental restrictions.
WM: What land-form features were you looking to utilize in the design?
TD: Most people see the land in the Sand Hills and focus on the big dunes, but a golf course designer has to focus on the valleys in between them, where the fairways can go. Our goal was not to just keep playing down the valleys, but play over them and down into them and up out of them, and give the holes as much variety as we could.
WM: Which was more difficult - finding locations for the routing or eliminating some because of the great number of possibilities?
TD: Everyone says you could find 1,000 different holes in the sand hills, but the truth is that most of them would feature blind shots, and a lot of them would run into a deadend where there wasn't another good hole to follow them. Trying to string a bunch of great holes together is a bit more difficult than we make it look, when we succeed.
WM: Obviously the Nicklaus course was there first - how much, if any, consideration did you give to designing something different, a counterpoint if you will?
TD: I always want to do something different than I've done before, and something different than the neighbors. We've worked next to several of the best courses in the world before; Pacific Dunes was next to Bandon Dunes, Sebonack was next to Shinnecock Hills and the National, and the Renaissance Club is next to Muirfield in Scotland. You're unlikely to "beat" those neighbors in the rankings, so you're better off just trying to build a course that's different and has a character of its own, and see what people think.
WM: Or, was this just the golf course you wanted to build - as you
saw it on the site? Was there any input from management on the overall scope of the design?
TD: Chris gave me a lot of freedom to come up with a cool design. I asked him right off if it mattered whether the course finished where it started, since previous decisions meant it was going to be well away from the clubhouse, no matter what, and it took him a minute to understand what I was asking. But he quickly came around to the idea that the course is a journey through the property and that it was better to finish down by the river than having to play up out of there.
WM: What result were you looking to achieve from a golfers perspective, a playability standpoint?
TD: Our goal is always to build a course that's fun to play. That usually means wide playing corridors, bunkers that make you think about where you're going, a good variety of tees so you can try a new one on your next round, and greens that make it matter where the approach is coming from.
WM: What was the easiest part of the design/build and what was the most difficult?
TD: Some of the greens were just laying there; there were several of them that took less than one hour to shape! But anywhere we changed the terrain it was difficult to conceal our work so that the whole course would look like it had never been touched. I won't spoil it by telling you where.
WM: How much were you involved in the actual construction? Did you use your own crew or hire out different aspects? Who did you use for subcontractors?
TD: The course was built by three of my associates who did most of the green and bunker shaping, a crew of summer interns who wanted experience in golf course construction, an irrigation crew led by my friend Don Mahaffey, and the course superintendent, Jagger Mandrell, doing the grassing. It was a small, tight-knit crew. Nobody had a profit motive, everyone involved just wanted to be part of something special.
WM: Are you happy with the result? If so, why?
TD: I am really happy so far, but honestly, that's just my ego talking right now. I won't know how well we've done until I have played it a few times and get a sense for how well it works. We're going to have a big group out in September, including a lot of guys in the golf business; that will probably be the acid test for me.

Scorpio Aquila 2 or simlar electric glider
Hi there! After losing my second Early Bird electric glider (left wing ripped off in high speed dive ) I've been looking around for a replacement - I've been particularly attracted to the Scorpio Aquila 2 for the following reasons!
Oh, the first thing I need to know (which I should have mentioned earlier ) is whether the darn thing is still available!!! It's still up on the Ripmax website, but in the pricelist it says 'temporarily unavailable'! And since that page hasn't been updated since 2002, I'm a little concerned it may have been discontinued!!
If indeed it has been discontinued can anyone recommend to me an electric glider that:
the Aquila 2 is an excellent sailplane. exactly what you are looking for. we love it.
take a look at Patrick's site for some videos and photos of it - http://plawner.net/
I think it was discontinued due to high production costs but I'm not sure. maybe Patrick wil join in on the thread...
good luck, Oded.
Excellent!!! Thanks for replying! I emailed Scorpio and indeed they said it has been out of production for the last year, but they do still have some stock in their Czech distributing branch! Hopefully I can get my LHS to buy one from them and sell it to me at their usual discount! Otherwise I might have to order direct ...
I also PM'd Patrick and he said he got it from a friend who got it from Euro Model in Paris .... didn't say when though ... oh well!
As it happens when I rang my LHS they said that the amount of money I'd need to spend on import tax, and international shipping would not be worth it - he then recommended the JP Easy Oriole which so far looks like quite an impressive machine - he knows 3 people who've had them and they've all been over the moon with it!!
Does anyone here have any experience with that plane? It's also an aerobatic glider with ailerons, but it has a smaller wingspan ... so long as I can shove my gearboxed Speed 600 in there I don't mind!
It wasn't his Aquila - a friend of his was flying it I think - the movie's here:
So does anyone have any comments about this plane?
let's make some order :
the Aquila in Patrick's site belongs to my brother Uri (who is also Patrick's friend). let me know if you have any questions what so ever regarding this model. if I can not answer directly, I'll ask my brother (the Aquila owner).
as for the "easy oriole", it is a step down from the Aquila. it's a chinese made model. for example : plastic fuselage vs. fiber (gel coated) fuselage in the Aquila. the wings are built to perfection in the Aquila, I would not trust the wings of the easy oriole to stand high G manouvers. in addition, the easy oriole is a very old design (over 5 years). I'm sorry I'm letting you down but these two models are hard to compare.
the advantage of the Aquila is that it's a high quality model but does not cost that much.
Patrick's plane by the way is the scorpio palio sport, flies nice but not really meant for aerobatics.
if you could wait with your purchase just a little longer, I'll try to think of some other model...
regards, Oded.
just thought of a candidate - http://www.espritmodel.com/sailplane_elec_Mefisto.html
it's made by Reichard (czech). see if you can get this one in the UK. I'll keep thinking... (-:

A clubmate had one until the horozontal stabiliser failed doing mild aerobatics!!
It is a poor design and /or badly manufactured because the grain of the wood runs from the root to the tip of the stab. If I remember correctly,the stab is fitted via pins in the fuz which, go into holes drilled in the root of the stab - so there is very little wood left for strength AND the grain runs the wrong way and thus provides no strength.
Being ARTF this flaw was not noticed until the loss of the plane.
It was a very nice flier and I suppose if you are not going to do aerobatics, it might be OK!
Mephisto looks really good !
I prefer the Aquilla II to my Palio Sport as the Palio is much more of a Glider, and I made a mistake there, I thought it would be in between.
The Aquilla is really good looking and well made and IS aerobatic.
Uri flew it doing nice aerobatics, and the plane behaved well, so far.
Still, Oded's suggestion on the Mephisto deserves attention. As for when Uri got his plane, I think around 3 months ago.
Hi again!
Well I rang my LHS and they said they could probably get the Mefisto Electric in in about 2 weeks ....
I'm still waiting for another reply from Scorpio regarding the availability of the Aquila ...
Which particular part of my website do you like then Patrick?!
The planes, of course... What, did I miss anything else ??

The Institute for Education Sciences funded the Miami Science Museum, in partnership with the University of Miami, to develop a comprehensive early childhood science curriculum, assessment tools and professional development program.
The overall goal of Early Childhood Hands-On Science (ECHOS®) is to investigate science as a domain for enhancing overall school readiness and to demonstrate that very young children can learn fundamental science concepts and the process skills associated with higher order thinking skills.
The fully developed preschool science curriculum consists of nine units, each containing four guided week-long science lessons that are introduced in 20-minute segments to small groups of children. A teacher assistant and/or volunteer simultaneously works with the balance of the children using related integration cards in three domains: language/literacy, math and creative arts. The iCards are short activities that are easy to set up.
ECHOS focuses on Life, Earth, and the Physical Sciences. The curriculum combines direct instruction with guided inquiry-based science experiences and exploration. Curriculum units are sequenced to present increasingly more complex science process skills in the categories of observing, describing, categorizing, predicting, experimenting and drawing conclusions.
Quasi-Experimental Study
A quasi-experimental study was conducted in 2010 with 30 Head Start Centers in Miami-Dade County to examine the efficacy of the ECHOS model program. ECHOS professional development and classroom implementation occurred over a seven-month period. In summary, the study found that:
Results are presented below by measurement instrument.
Preschool Science Classroom Observation Tool (PreSCOT)
Science-related behavior ratings of teachers (t(28) = 0.654, ns) and children as a group (t(28) = 0.343, ns) in ECHOS and non-ECHOS classrooms were not significantly different at the beginning of the year. However, at the end of the year teachers (t(28) = -2.777, p < .01) and children (t(28) = -2.683, p < .01) in ECHOS classrooms exhibited significantly higher levels of science-related behaviors, relative to non-ECHOS classrooms.
Direct Assessment of Science
Multi-level analyses were conducted (using HLM6) in order to examine the effects of the ECHOS professional development program on children's science readiness. Children in ECHOS classrooms obtained significantly higher scores at the end of the year relative to children in non-ECHOS classrooms, after controlling for demographic covariates (age, sex, ethnicity) and pre-test science scores (y01 = 23.92, t = 3.48, p < .001).
Preschool Teacher Attitude and Beliefs about Science (P-TABS)
Relative to the beginning of the year, teachers in ECHOS classrooms at the end of the year felt more comfortable teaching science (t(49) = -2.137, p < .05) and had more positive attitudes and beliefs toward how science can benefit preschool children (t(49) = -2.861, p < .01). Teachers in non-ECHOS classrooms, however, showed no changes from the beginning to the end of the year.
Randomized Controlled Trial
From 2011 to 2013, the Institute for Education Sciences provided funding for the Miami Science Museum, in partnership with the University of Miami, to conduct a two-year full-scale efficacy study of the ECHOS professional development model.
Year One Findings
Preschool Science Classroom Observation Tool (PreSCOT)
Analyses at the end of the first year show preliminary evidence for the effectiveness of ECHOS on the quality of teacher's science instruction and on children's science skills. A series of repeated-measures analysis of variance (ANOVA) revealed that ECHOS teachers significantly improved their scores in use of instructional strategies associated with higher-order thinking skills, specifically predicting, investigating, and evaluating, across the year, while control group teachers did not.
ECHOS Fidelity Observation Tool
This ten-item instrument administered fall, winter and spring was designed to measure adherence to model (5 items) & quality of implementation (5 items) using a 3-point rubric (0, 1, 2). With respect to fidelity, items were created to measure both fidelity "adherence" and fidelity "quality." Overall, teachers' fidelity to ECHOS was high. ECHOS teachers showed significant increases in total fidelity and fidelity quality from winter to spring.
Changes in Fidelity Adherence and Fidelity Quality from Winter to Spring
P-TABS (Preschool Teacher Attitudes and Beliefs About Science)
Administered to teachers in fall and spring of academic year. Three subscales: child benefit, teacher comfort and teacher challenges. Over time, ECHOS teachers reported significantly greater challenges in teaching science while control teachers did not. Over time ECHOS teachers also rated science as having more benefit for children and felt more comfortable teaching science.
Teacher Science Knowledge Test
ECHOS teachers significantly improved their scores from fall to spring, while control teachers did not, on a test of general science knowledge developed by the UM research team.
Direct Assessment of Preschool Science
Approximately 900 children (randomly selected to 450 per condition) were assessed on science skills in the fall, winter and spring of the school year.
Multilevel models (time nested in children nested in classrooms) were analyzed to determine if ECHOS was associated with children's growth in science skills. All children showed significant growth in science skills (p < .001). A trend indicated faster rates of growth for children in ECHOS classrooms (p = .069)
While ECHOS did not predict gains from fall to winter, a trend indicated that ECHOS predicted more gains in science skills from winter to spring compared to control classrooms.
Year Two Findings
Does ECHOS improve Head Start teachers' science teaching?
Using the Preschool Science Classroom Observation Tool, teachers were observed in the Spring, 2011 prior to random assignment to ECHOS and Control conditions presenting a science lesson of their choice. The first time point (baseline prior to random assignment to Treatment (ECHOS versus Control) shows the equivalence of the two groups (.79 versus .81). Analysis of the four subsequent time points after random assignment and the beginning of the ECHOS program (Winter, 2011, Spring 2012, Fall, 2012, Spring 2013) were conducted using SPSS version 21 with the GLM procedure using a repeated measure design. Treatment (ECHOS versus Control) served as a between subject variable and time as a within subject variable. These data are shown in figure 1 below. ECHOS teachers had a higher mean PreSCOT score across these 4 time periods compared to Control teachers (.85 versus .74). This difference was statistically significant, F(1,64) 4.43, p = .039.

CBPP Analysis of Ryan Budget Tax Cuts
The big news last week was about the Supreme Court hearing oral arguments over the health care reform law, but the Ryan budget was a close second. In a year in which we're facing potential taxmageddon, it's just one of several tax proposals. Unlike the tax proposals floated by Presidential hopefuls, like Herman Cain's 9-9-9 plans, this one comes from the Chairman of the House Budget Committee.
Rather than go through the proposal itself, let's just take a look at the analysis performed by the Center on Budget and Policy Priorities. As a bit of disclosure, Congressional Quarterly called them socially liberal and fiscally conservative.

Waterford soon became the commercial center for the agricultural industry.

TRENTON — Married 21 years ago by a Reform rabbi in Edison, Marsha Shapiro and Louise Walpin have their Jewish marriage certificate hanging on the wall on the stairwell of their Monmouth Junction home.
Last year, they got married in New York, a state that recognizes same-sex marriage.
The couple — the faces of the fight for same-sex marriage in New Jersey — still wait for the day this state will legally recognize their marriage and hope today's U.S. Supreme Court decision striking down the federal Defense of Marriage Act will speed that along.
"We want what is ours. We want a marriage. All we want is for New Jersey to give us what is ours," Walpin said.
"Recognition. Benefits. Protection. And dignity," Shapiro added.
Because they have a marriage that is recognized in 13 states and the District of Columbia, they gain some benefits from today's ruling, but not all they would have if they lived in a state that allows same-sex marriage, they said.
Walpin says they're in the "land of legal ambiguity."
"Many of the federal benefits that are only afforded to married couples we're not entitled to," she said.
They said they hope this decision will buoy their case, along with six other couples, pending in Superior Court or embolden state lawmakers to gather enough votes to override Gov. Chris Christie's 2012 veto of gay marriage.
• For N.J.'s gay couples, Supreme Court ruling brings almost no change
• Supreme Court's decision on gay marriage may inspire new push in N.J.
• Sweeney says N.J. lawmakers will meet with gay rights advocates about same-sex marriage

Chinese government is spending heavily to increase its military might
and is increasing spending on research into new weapon systems. China
insists that it is no threat to other countries, but much of the
world looks warily at the communist country and its growing
power.China's defense minister Liang Guanglie says that
the country
wants to modernize its military without foreign aid. Liang said,
"In the coming five years, our military will push forward
preparations for military conflict in every strategic
direction."Liang continues to say that China would
advance its capability to fight and win future high-tech wars while
boosting its conventional military arsenal. China is working on
weapons that trouble some military analysts and military personnel in
the U.S. with new weapons systems like the DF-21 missile which
can destroy
a U.S. supercarrier with a single hit.Liang said,
"We will stand on our own feet to solve the problem and develop
our equipment. The modernization of the Chinese military cannot
depend on others, and cannot be bought."According to
Liang, China is building up its navy, air force, and strategic
missile forces. China is thought to be launching a new aircraft
carrier as much as a year before analysts expected and the Chinese
Air Force has a new stealth jet that has been seen recently in spy
shots. The Chinese stealth aircraft is called
the J-20 and is thought to be aimed at the U.S. F-22 Raptor.
Some reports have claimed that the J-20 is larger than the Raptor
with more weapons and fuel capacity making some think that the
aircraft may not be as fast or agile as the Raptor in a
News reports
that U.S. Defense Secretary Ronald Gates will head to Beijing soon
for talks with Chinese officials. The visit will undoubtedly be in
part to talk about the fact that China is allied with North Korea.
North Korea recently shelled a small South Korean island killing four
people, including two civilians.

The ideology has only been formally applied in one historical case and is consequently judged by how it was implemented in the Third Reich. These factors have caused the term National Socialism to be used nearly synonymously with racism, Nazism or anti-Semitism. National Socialism is a complex ideology that seeks to be an alternative to both international capitalism and international communism.

Arum is a crook. He must have known there was a good chance the fight couldnt be held in NY, the commission refused Marg's licence last October didnt they? Arum decided to book the venue and sell tickets anyway, not even thinking about the fans and the trouble it'll cause if the venue got pulled - its not just the tickets, but the hotels and the flights. I feel sorry for you guys.
With a fight like this, and with a fighter that you know you may have some problems with surely it would be a sensible idea to have your venue 100% confirmed before you start flogging the tickets!

The National Transportation Safety Board says distracted driving must stop.
On Tuesday, the federal agency called for states to get tough with their laws and ban all cell phone use, including texting, emailing or chatting while driving.
It's a temptation facing most drivers. The cell phone rings or a sound announces that a text has been received.
Then comes the moment of truth. Do you take your eyes off the road for just a few seconds and respond?
"It's a very serious issues and people need to put their devices down and drive," said Deborah Hersman, the NTSB chairman.
The NTSB even wants to outlaw hands-free devices like Bluetooth.
"We're not here to win a popularity contest," Hersman said. "No email, no text, no update, no call is worth a human life."
Officials estimate that distracted driving kills more than 3,000 people every year and causes more than 600,000 accidents.
Jacy Good lost her parents because of a distracted driver.
"Both of my parents were killed instantly. I wasn't breathing. No one expected I would live past the first 36 hours," she recalled.
For Shelly Forney, it was her 9-year old daughter that was a victim.
"She hit my daughter at 25 miles an hour. Erica hit the windshield and she flipped backwards 15 feet and landed on her neck," Forney said through tears.
A driver takes their eyes off the road for about five seconds when looking at a text. At 55 miles per hour, that means they have driven the length of a football field -- basically blind.
"We know that accidents happen in the blink of an eye. You have to be paying attention all the time. You never know what call, what text or what post could be your last if you're doing it behind the wheel," Hersman explained.
Currently, 35 states and the District of Columbia have laws against texting while driving. Nine states and Washington, D.C., bar hand-held cell phone use. Thirty states ban all cell phone use for beginning drivers. But enforcement is generally not a high priority.
However, the federal government wants all states to ban all cell phone use behind the wheel.
The NTSB doesn't have the power to do it though. That's the job of the individual states.
More Drivers Texting Behind Wheel, Despite Laws

We recently (last week or so) had some problems with slow download rates on our connection (that eventually died completely), after conferring with them (Charter support), we walked throught the standard things you mention. In the end he (the support dude) indicated that he was getting erratic signal levels in connecting to the modem itself. I realize you may not be able to verify this without help, but during the conversation, on our cable modem there was a visible cable link light that was 'out' (meaning no cable connection). I forget what make/model the modem is off-hand. At any rate, all these combined, they scheduled someone to come out the next day. Before they made it out however, it turned out to be the start of a service outage for our area that hadn't been verified yet. Later on the next day all was back to normal. This has maybe been the 2nd or 3rd outage we went through in the past 3 years (?) using Charter. scott

LEWISTOWN - In a game full of momentum swings, Mifflin County relied on its experience in the field and capabilities at the plate to hold off a feisty Red Land softball team, 5-2, on Thursday.
The Huskies had an early 2-0 lead after the first inning when they jumped on Red Land starting pitcher Taylor Tartley for three of their seven total hits, including an RBI triple from Mara Rhodes. The game then went into a holding pattern as Tartley held the Huskies hitless through the next three innings, while Mifflin County pitcher Shelby Lyter kept the Patriots off the bases entirely until a Miranda Zehring single up the middle in the top of the fourth.
In those four innings, Lyter recorded six of her eight total strikeouts - four of them looking - and didn't give up a single walk. However, after Zehring got the Patriots' first hit in the fourth, it opened up the gates for Red Land to change the score.

Mifflin County's Tara Kibe bunts an incoming pitch during the Huskies' 5-2 win over Red Land on Thursday at Highland Park Elementary School.
In the top of the next inning, Reagan Gettys led off with a single to shallow left field. Lyter issued a free pass to the next batter, Ashley Carroll, and it became an issue minutes later when Alyssa Munns struck a single up the middle that center fielder Rhodes missed on the ground, allowing both Gettys and Carroll to score.
"(Lyter) got into a tough situation there for a little while," Mifflin County coach Jack McCurdy said, but gave Lyter and the defense credit for getting out of the inning when a strikeout to Tartley, a pop up caught by catcher Morrison on an attempted bunt and an unassisted putout at first by Hannah Ruby got the Huskies out of the inning with Red Land runners stranded at first and third.
"I said to (Lyter), 'Just keep throwing. Keep excellerating through. Trust yourself, you know you're good enough to do this.' And she settled in, and we got out of that tough inning," McCurdy explained.
With the game tied at 2-2 and the Huskies in a hitless slump after their three first-inning hits, the offense came through in the clutch just as the defense had a half inning before to take the final lead of the game.
After a ground out by Taylor Dietrich to lead off the bottom of the fifth, Taylor McKay reached first on a single, advanced to second on a wild pitch, then came home after Morrison ripped a double to deep center field for the 3-2 lead.
Morrison then stole third base and Tara Kibe put the ball in play in the infield and reached on a dropped ball by first baseman Brittney Carroll to put runners at first and third.
In the next at bat, Rhodes redeemed herself for the runs off her error in the top half of the inning when her 6-3 ground out brought Morrison home for the RBI, and Kibe also scored when Carroll overthrew third trying to get her out, allowing the final run of the game to score.
The Huskies again had a chance to score in the sixth when they had the bases loaded and one out, but a misread signal resulting in a botched suicide squeeze at home and a 4-3 ground out kept the final score at 5-2.
Of the Huskies' seven hits, five were to the right side - a fact that pleased McCurdy
"(Tartley) stayed on the outside of the plate, and I thought that's something our kids did a good job with. It's something we talk about a lot. You have to find what the pitcher's doing," he said, explaining that he and the coaching staff had been instructing the team to hit the ball where it was pitched.
The Huskies also had no strikeouts the entire game, and on defense McCurdy identified Ruby's double play from first in the bottom of the sixth as a key moment in maintaining the Huskies' momentum.
"She threw a dart to second base to make that double play," he said of his first baseman, who had caught a foul ball near the fence at first, then threw out runner Abby Murphy at second for the double play.
In JV action, the Huskies dominated with a 17-0 win.
Mifflin County (5-0, 5-0 Commonwealth Division) returns to action Monday in a home game against Chambersburg.

Education Needed to Avoid New AIDS "Upsurge" in United States, Winston-Salem Journal Editorial Says
August 7, 2003
People in the United States need to "get [the] message out loud and clear" that AIDS is "still a terrible threat right here in the United States," a Winston-Salem Journal editorial says. The United States has made "just enough progress ... to be at a dangerous crossroads [and] ... after several years of progress, this country may be on the brink of a new upsurge in AIDS," the editorial says. The passage of time from the "terrible days" of the height of the epidemic in the United States and the focus of news reports on antiretroviral drugs and other AIDS treatments has "nurture[d] a growing complacency" about the disease, according to the Journal. In addition, news reports have shifted to focus on the toll of the disease abroad, causing some to "wrongly assume that AIDS is not an American problem anymore," the editorial says. However, the disease is still "deadly and easily spread," the editorial says, concluding that "[p]ublic health officials, schools, parents -- everyone who works with young people -- should spread the word that AIDS is a killer and that safe sex is a necessity, not just a slogan" (Winston Salem-Journal, 8/7).

We all remember when Bob Torricelli's wholly theoretical ethical deficiencies forced his withdrawal from the New Jersey Senate race in 2002 (Bob has since moved on to combined sotto capo/consigliere duties with a well regarded family enterprise in the New Jersey/New York/Palermo area). The Democratic Party took note of his difficulties and responded by substituting Frank Lautenberg using a little known loophole in existing New Jersey election law (referred to locally as the "you godda problem widdat, buddy?" clause).
Now, my question is: "Will the Democratic Party of New Jersey be able to find a good unindicted politician with sufficient statewide name recognition to replace Menendez if he is taken into custody?"
I've seen Codey's name kicked around as the sure fire winning replacement but can New Jersey Democrats be absolutely certain that he won't be in jail on November 7th? Wouldn't it be safer to run Lautenberg for the second seat too? He appears to have expired soon after the '02 election so there is little reason to think that he is currently the focus of an investigation.
Menendez is only down 5 points at the moment and even if indicted would not be tried until after the election. Perhaps the Democrats would be wiser to stick with him rather than going with 'Weekend at Frank's' Lautenberg for both seats. It's a tough call.

MOUNT PLEASANT, S.C. (AP) A Charleston developer has been selected to develop 50 acres of high ground property at the Patriots Point Naval and Maritime Museum in what is expected to be a $300 million investment over a decade.
The museum announced Friday that the board of directors of the Patriots Point Development Authority has selected Bennett Hospitality to develop the tract. Details of the project were not immediately released.
The board must first negotiate a 99-year lease with the developer and the lease also must be approved by the state Budget and Control Board.
The authority earlier sought proposals for developing the property. Ongoing revenue from the leased property will allow restoration and maintenance of the ships and piers at the museum located on Charleston Harbor.

PENNA, João Camillo. A Violência da poesia. Alea [online]. 2011, vol.13, n.2, pp.205-226. ISSN 1517-106X. http://dx.doi.org/10.1590/S1517-106X2011000200002.
The article proposes to read three poems written by the Rio de Janeiro poet Armando Freitas Filho which turn around the thematic of recent urban violence. For that matter, it draws from earlier political poems, written by the same poet. The hypothesis raised in the article is that poetry, and specifically Armando Freitas Filho's poetry, gives a special treatment to the figure of the victim, the new subject of politics, withdrawing it from the field of vision where the media representation exposes it, inserting a crack or unrepresentable point, from which the poem writes itself.
Palavras-chave : Armando Freitas Filho; poetry; violence; Rio de Janeiro; victim.

- Aleene's Original Tacky Glue
- Aleene's Spray Acrylic Sealer – Gloss
- Clay pot (size of your choice)
- Paper doilies – round
- Clothespin (or paper clip)
- Cardboard squeegee (2-1/2″ x 1-1/2″)
- Scissors
- Acrylic paint – black, plus colors of your choice
- Paint brush
- Paper towel
- Embellishments (bread dough flowers and leaves, butterfly wings, jewelry parts, jewelry chain)
Keep your doilies layered when removing from the package. Carefully lift 3 doilies and keep them aligned by clipping with clothespin or paper clip.
Working half of the doily at a time, use cardboard squeegee to apply a thin layer of Aleene's Original Tacky Glue between each doily layer.
While glue is still wet, cut doily in half.
Use cardboard squeegee to apply a thin layer of glue to back of doilies.
Glue in place on clay pot. Repeat to apply as many doilies as desired, cutting them into different sizes to fit the shape and size of your clay pot. Let glue dry completely.
Brush entire clay pot with black acrylic paint. Let dry.
Pick up first color of acrylic paint with brush and brush it lightly on paper towel. Then, following the design of the doily on the clay pot, dry brush paint colors where desired.
With this dry brush technique, you should still see some of the black paint showing from behind. Continue to paint entire clay pot with this dry brush technique. Spray seal with Aleene's Spray Gloss Sealer.
Decorate pot with desired embellishments. On my clay pot I used a Cool2Cast face, bread dough flowers and leaves, paper butterfly wings, jewelry chain, and jewelry pieces.

It's not every day you can hold the Moon and Mars in the palm of your hand
In the process of photographing Dr. Rhiannon Mayne and several of the meteorites on display in the Monnig Meteorite Gallery at TCU in Fort Worth Thursday, I had the rare opportunity to go behind the scenes of the one of the world's largest university-based meteorite collections. After chatting a while, Rhiannon asked if I'd like to hold a piece of the moon. Being the geek that I am, I said, "Sure!".
Upon seeing my excitement, she quickly placed a piece of Mars in my hand as well saying, "It's not every day you can hold the Moon and Mars in the palm of your hand!" They may be small but I feel even smaller when I consider where they came from. To read more about the gallery, read Steve Blow's column here.

Five Lashkar militants killed in Kashmir gunfight
By IANS - SRINAGAR
Published: 18th December 2012 11:00 AM
Last Updated: 18th December 2012 09:27 PM
Five Lashkar-e-Taiba (LeT) guerrillas were killed Tuesday in a gunfight with security forces near Sopore town in Baramulla district of north Kashmir, police said.
The gunfight that started in the wee hours Tuesday has ended, police here said.
It ensued after security forces surrounded two houses in Saidpora village, two km from Sopore town.
During search operations, the militants opened fire with automatic weapons, triggering the gunfight.
Director General of Police (DGP) Ashok Prasad told reporters here: "The state police was tracking this group of militants and with the assistance of other security forces we have been able to neutralize them today."
Prasad also said the group was planning to carry out a major militant strike. Asked whether the strike was intended to be carried out in Srinagar, the DGP said: "The main focus of militants is always Srinagar."
Superintendent of Police (SP) of Sopore, Imtiaz Mir, said: "Five LeT militants were killed in an encounter today (Tuesday) in Saidpora, Sopore (in north Kashmir)."
Inspector General of Police S.M. Sahai, who visited the encounter site, described the elimination of these militants as a major success in the fight against militancy in north Kashmir.
Last week security forces had killed three militants in the Cherhar forests in the same district.
Sopore, traditionally seen as a stronghold of separatist elements in the Kashmir Valley, was upgraded as a police district in January 2010 to fight militancy in the area.

Does anyone think we have any chance of an IPO this quarter or one directly after the next ex div? I did just sell 40% of my shares yesterday at a limit price of 31.84 that were purchased on the 2nd at $30.26. We all know of the issues with the debt ceilings and other issues that may throw some curve balls.
Sentiment: Hold
Secondarys and Stock buy backs don't usually occur at the same time.

It seems very very unlikely.
Today 30YR FNMA 4.0 was at 106-08.
Essentially MBS is a bit overpriced.
It's hard to do a secondary and buy a bunch of agency MBS at decent prices when your competing against the Fed.
Yields are edging up, which means bond prices are edging down.
It's time to start being wary.

on March 12, 2013 - 7:08 AM
, updated March 12, 2013 at 7:09 AM
Front Park has not had an easy existence since it was imagined by Frederick Law Olmsted three years after the end of the Civil War.
Designed to provide commanding views of Lake Erie and the Niagara River, the park – originally called "The Front" – suffered at the hands of progress or, if not progress, then change. It has been hacked and mangled so that it is now a shadow of what it once was.
Things are about to improve. A road that was rammed through the park 60 years ago to connect the city to the Peace Bridge is scheduled to be removed by 2015 in favor of a new entrance south and west of the park. Not only will the change help to restore a historic park overlooking two historic bodies of water, but it will also move along the process of improving the inspection plaza at the Peace Bridge.
The Olmsted Parks Conservancy is thrilled at the announcement as, indeed, the whole community should be. Along with Buffalo architecture, the city's park system is one of its most potent resources and, even 145 years later, it bears protection and restoration.
The project will restore three acres of parkland and allow the conservancy to try to re-establish Olmsted's original design, said its president, Thomas Herrera-Mishler. That work potentially includes the park's original entrance at the corner of Busti and Porter avenues and the original landscaping design around the park's perimeter.
Among the changes will be installation of a roundabout or traffic signal at a new entry ramp for the bridge off Porter Avenue.
In addition, traffic leaving the bridge will flow to a single point away from the plaza, with vehicles going onto the existing ramp to the southbound Niagara Thruway, a new ramp to the northbound Niagara Thruway or onto Niagara Street instead of Porter Avenue. This is expected to eliminate crisscrossing patterns and other impediments to traffic.
The work, pushed hard by the Cuomo administration, also demonstrates that Buffalo is leaving behind its reputation for public-sector paralysis. More than any other factor, even the waterfront, Buffalo's inability to register progress on the Peace Bridge project has become emblematic of the city's inability to accomplish anything.
While work on the plaza and bridge remains pending, other long-standing issues have been resolved, including the demolition of vacant homes on Busti Avenue and now, plans to restore Front Park and smooth the flow of traffic, which should help ease neighborhood health problems caused by exhaust fumes. Add to that the projects now transforming the waterfront, the fast-developing Buffalo Niagara Medical Campus and restorations in and around the Larkin District, and it is clear that Buffalo is adopting a new way of doing business.
All these are important projects, but the restoration of Front Park is especially satisfying. It has become a kind of stepchild in Buffalo's Olmsted Parks system, so badly used that many despaired of its salvation.
This won't give back the park that Buffalo had 100 years ago, but it will make a good run at it. That's worth celebrating.

On drinking, there's some intriguing evidence suggesting that the more nourished your body is, the less it craves alcohol. This seems to be the case for me--I drink much less often than I used to. Although perhaps it's just part of finally growing up? Who knows.
I really only drink the REALLY good stuff now, also. When the Great American Beer Festival comes to town I sample lots of fine microbrews. My primary wine is one my neighbor makes, which is fantastic and has no weird added anything. If I buy a bottle of bourbon it's the good stuff, and I sip it on the rocks.
I don't swill cheap beer or liquor any more, even when boating or camping or whatever. Drinking the good stuff, slowly feels more like the good life now.

Fortunately, the Red Cross and the other agencies participating in TOPOFF-3 are populated with volunteers and staff accustomed to wearing multiple hats.
In the simulated mustard gas attack on New London, Connecticut, local volunteer Bill Poirier changed roles often. He's a Disaster Action Team leader within his chapter, but sampled a host of tasks this week. On Monday, he fed hundreds of participants at the Fort Trumbull site. Tuesday was family assistance work, and Wednesday was filled with logistics and moving supplies around in the Emergency Response Vehicle (ERV).
New London resident Lori Cannon works in the field of information security, and has trained in measures to combat cyber-terrorism. With this exercise, she put her acting skills to the test. Her role? A two-year-old boy, exposed to the mustard gas and explosion. "I'm basically going to scream and run around," Cannon said. "We've been encouraged to take our roles into account."
While her interest in security may have prompted her to sign up for the exercise, Cannon isn't here for any professional advantage or insight. "I haven't thought about it for myself," she said. "I'm just focusing on the good this could provide for the agencies involved."
In contrast, Carol Dixon added a few decades for her TOPOFF persona. "I play a 76-year-old woman who develops difficulty breathing after going back in to help others." Dixon drove ninety miles from Greenwich, Conn. to get into character as a blast victim. If she had wished, she could have taken part in TOPOFF-3 from her desk.
Dixon works at the Greenwich Department of Health, which was activated during a state-wide call down of available personnel. "I would have answered the phone, but instead I had my back on the pavement in New London." She says the exercise has opened her eyes. "If there ever is something that I'll have to respond, this is a great opportunity for me to see it from the other side," she said. "It puts a whole new perspective on things."

Doha: Continuing its rising spree, Qatari bourse yesterday closed at all-time high of 13,174.74 points, gaining 107.40 points or 0.82 percent yesterday, helped by surge in shares of Qatar Insurance Company and optimism among investors about the inclusion of Qatari shares on MSCI Emerging Market Index.
Yesterday's gain made investors richer by QR12bn as the value of stocks on Qatar Exchange rose to QR738bn ($203bn) on Tuesday from QR726bn ($199bn) on Monday. The benchmark index previous high was 13,609 which it touched in 2005 when Qatari market was opened for foreign investors.
Shares in Qatar Insurance Company rose their daily limit of 10 percent to QR81.40 after Qatar Civil Aviation Authority said announced yesterday that the company would provide insurance services for the newly opened Hamad International Airport for a value of QR45.97bn ($12.63bn).
Most Doha-listed stocks rose ahead Index compiler MSCI's Wednesday announcement on which companies from Qatar and the United Arab Emirates it will add to its emerging market index. The changes will take effect at the end of May, almost a year after MSCI said it would upgrade both countries to emerging market status. That decision has helped the Dubai, Abu Dhabi and Qatar bourses subsequently outperform other Gulf markets.
Stocks from the UAE and Qatar are currently included in MSCI's frontier market index and the upgrade is expected to attract more foreign investment. Exchange data shows large inflows of foreign funds have already taken place.
"All local and international indicators are encouraging. Locally there are number of mega projects which have already started and there is also enough liquidity in the market. Investors are also gaining more confidence in local market, especially after the announcement of the inclusions of Qatari shares in MSCI Emerging Market Index," said Abdullah Al Khatir. "Things are also encouraging at the international front and major markets around the world are moving up," he said.
Along with Qatar Insurance, Gulf International, Al Kaleej Takaful and Ezdan Holding registered healthy rise on Tuesday. Gulf International gained 1.84 percent to QR99.80, Al Kaleej Takaful added 1.84 percent to QR38.70 and Ezdan Holding up by 10 percent to QR27.50.
"Investors need to be cautious as experts say that market fluctuate going forward. "
I do not expect that the current momentum will be sustained in near future and it is likely to fluctuate going forward," said Al Khatir. The momentum of the market will depend on the investors' reading of the situations around the world because they keep one eye on the index and other on the local and international developments," he added.
Most other markets in the region also advanced. Dubai led gains as it recovered from a sharp drop earlier this week.
Out of the total 42 traded companies, 29 companies advanced on Tuesday while 11 companies declined. The volume of the shares traded up to 23.5 million from 21.5 million on Monday and the value of shares decreased to QR1.01bn from QR1.03bn Monday.

High-protein dietary supplements were started for 2 patients, who had a period of anorexia before hospital admission but no history of liver disease. Subsequent altered mental status with ataxia developed in both patients. After excluding other causes, hyperammonemia was noted, while liver function test results remained normal. Removal of the high-protein dietary supplements led to reversal of symptoms and normalization of the ammonia level. With the ubiquity of nutrition supplement use outside of liver failure, SHAKE (supplement-associated hyperammonemia after c[k]achetic episode) syndrome may be commonplace in modern hospitals.
