The state Department of Environmental Conservation's recent proposal to change the state's fishing regulations included increasing the minimum size limit of tiger muskies caught on Otisco Lake from 30 to 36 inches.
I discovered this week that the Onondaga Federation of Sportsmen's Clubs, the Friends of the Carpenter's Brook Fish Hatchery and the Otisco Rod and Gun Club are opposed to it for various reasons.
The DEC's press release last month on this matter included other bodies of water.
The proposal read: "Implementing a 40-inch size limit for muskellunge and tiger muskellunge in the Chenango, Tioughnioga, Tioga and Susquehanna rivers and a 36-inch size limit at Otisco Lake to increase the trophy potential of these species in these waters. The current minimum size is 30 inches."
I've heard nothing negative about the proposed 40-inch limit on the four rivers, but Otisco is a different story.
"The Federation does not support this new proposed change," said Stephen Wowelko, the group's president. "We were concerned with the limited public fishing access to the lake. How would fishermen take advantage of this trophy fish? The delegates also thought that a 30-inch fish was in itself a trophy."
Wowelko added that he attended a recent board meeting of the Friends group, where it was noted the hatchery annually stocks thousands of two-year-old brown trout in Otisco. "Increasing the number of larger predator fish may have a direct impact on this fishery," he said.
David Lemon, the regional fisheries manager at the DEC's Cortland office, responded in an email to Wowelko's points. He said changing the minimum size from 30 to 36 inches would simply delay the potential harvest of tigers about a year, nearly doubling the weight of these fish. He noted the 36-inch size limit was a compromise, a reaction to negative comments made by some anglers to the original 40-inch proposal on Otisco.
Tiger muskies are sterile hybrids, a cross between a muskie and a northern pike. Those stocked locally are raised at the DEC's South Otselic hatchery.
"Our primary goal in stocking tigers is to create an opportunity for anglers to catch very large fish in waters that otherwise would not provide this possibility," Lemon said. "The popularity of muskie/tiger muskie fishing has never been higher and the only way to grow large fish is by giving them a chance to grow larger."
As for the brown trout question, Lemon responded: "We have no data to support that. Otisco Lake is marginally suited for trout survival." He suggested that possibly more trout die as a result of warm summer temperatures in the lake (especially those fish that are caught and released by anglers) than those that gobbled up tigers.
One issue that was not addressed was the lack of a public boat launch on Otisco, where the only option for anglers with trailered boats is to pay at two private marinas to launch their craft.
The DEC is accepting public comment on the Otisco Lake tiger muskie proposal and other proposed changes through April 1. If approved, the changes would take effect Oct. 1.
Comments can be sent via e-mail to email@example.com, or mailed to Shaun Keeler, New York State DEC, Bureau of Fisheries, 625 Broadway, Albany, NY 12233-4753. For a complete list of the changes, see www.dec.ny.gov or www.syracuse.com/outdoors.

Six Years a Sunfish
Very little is known about the lifespan and reproductive biology of the ocean sunfish, Mola mola, after which this blog is named. They can live to be at least 20 years old, however, and so one can assume that to dispatch one at six years old is to cut it off in its prime. Yet haul this one on to deck and administer a hefty blow from an oversized fisherman's priest we must. After years of kind support from first Nature... Read more

Chromosome x-wide association study identifies Loci for fasting insulin and height and evidence for incomplete dosage compensation.
|Publication Type

|Tukiainen, T., Pirinen M., Sarin AP, Ladenvall C., Kettunen J., Lehtimäki T., Lokki ML, Perola M., Sinisalo J., Vlachopoulou E., Eriksson JG, Groop L., Jula A., Järvelin MR, Raitakari OT, Salomaa V., and Ripatti S.
|The X chromosome (chrX) represents one potential source for the "missing heritability" for complex phenotypes, which thus far has remained underanalyzed in genome-wide association studies (GWAS). Here we demonstrate the benefits of including chrX in GWAS by assessing the contribution of 404,862 chrX SNPs to levels of twelve commonly studied cardiometabolic and anthropometric traits in 19,697 Finnish and Swedish individuals with replication data on 5,032 additional Finns. By using a linear mixed model, we estimate that on average 2.6% of the additive genetic variance in these twelve traits is attributable to chrX, this being in proportion to the number of SNPs in the chromosome. In a chrX-wide association analysis, we identify three novel loci: two for height (rs182838724 near FGF16/ATRX/MAGT1, joint P-value = 2.71×10(-9), and rs1751138 near ITM2A, P-value = 3.03×10(-10)) and one for fasting insulin (rs139163435 in Xq23, P-value = 5.18×10(-9)). Further, we find that effect sizes for variants near ITM2A, a gene implicated in cartilage development, show evidence for a lack of dosage compensation. This observation is further supported by a sex-difference in ITM2A expression in whole blood (P-value = 0.00251), and is also in agreement with a previous report showing ITM2A escapes from X chromosome inactivation (XCI) in the majority of women. Hence, our results show one of the first links between phenotypic variation in a population sample and an XCI-escaping locus and pinpoint ITM2A as a potential contributor to the sexual dimorphism in height. In conclusion, our study provides a clear motivation for including chrX in large-scale genetic studies of complex diseases and traits.

WASHINGTON, D.C. - In cooperation with the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC), Maytag Corp., of Newton, Iowa, is voluntarily recalling to repair about 23,000 Gemini gas ranges. The range can experience a delayed ignition flashback fire in the upper oven, which poses a fire and burn hazard to consumers. Maytag has received nine reports of flashback fires, including three minor burn injuries and incidents where consumers suffered singed hair or clothing.The recall involves all Maytag Gemini Gas Ranges. The Gemini ranges are free standing, have separate upper and lower ovens, and come in white, black, bisque and a stainless finish. The "Maytag" and "Gemini" names and logos appear on the control panel. The recalled ranges have a model number of MGR6772 and a serial number with the alpha characters AJ through AX or CA through CC, both of which are located on a flip-up serial tag behind the upper left corner of the control panel. The ranges were manufactured in the United States. Retail appliance stores nationwide sold the ranges from July 2002 through February 2003 for between $1,300 and $1,500.Consumers should immediately stop using the upper oven self-clean and broil features and consumers should not use the upper oven simultaneously with the lower oven. Consumers should contact Maytag at (866) 580-9177 between 8 a.m. and 5 p.m. ET Monday through Friday to arrange for a free, in-home repair by an authorized Maytag Customer Service contractor. For more information, consumers can visit Maytag's web site at www.maytag.com.Use of the lower oven is not affected by this repair and may be used in normal operation.

About Joel
Joel Thomas, a national-level bodybuilder and powerlifting champion, grew up in Lake City, Florida with a younger brother and sister. As a toddler, Joel had an abundance of energy, so at age three, his parents enrolled him in gymnastics. At age eight, Joel began competing in gymnastics and did extremely well, and for the next five years, he competed in Florida as well as all over the Southeast. During that time, Joel racked up hundreds of medals and trophies.
The gymnastics team trained 15 to 20 hours per week, so Joel didn't have much time for anything else other than school. He didn't mind schoolwork and, therefore, maintained good grades. Nonetheless, Joel's heart was in sports. At age 13, he quit gymnastics and within two weeks joined the wrestling team. Joel wrestled and competed in weightlifting all four years of high school and placed top 6 in both sports as an upperclassman. He also wrestled at Nationals for Team Florida. Wrestling and weightlifting weren't enough as Joel played football as a linebacker in the 9th and 10th grades.
When high school ended, so did wrestling and weightlifting, which meant no more competitions. Joel continued to workout and met Toby Irby at Future Fitness in Lake City Florida. Toby talked him into joining his small group of APF and AAPF powerlifters. Toby taught Joel everything about powerlifting and remains one of Joel's best and closest friends.
Joel competed in powerlifting from ages 18 to 23 and excelled at it. Gymnastics and wrestling built up Joel's strength at a young age. At 22, Joel bench pressed 518 pounds in the 198-pound weight class at AAPF Nationals breaking the Junior World record. The following year, at just 23 years old, Joel benched an incredible 633 pounds in the 220-pound weight class setting the Junior American record. He would have had to do that lift at Nationals to make it an official World record.
From as early as he can remember, Joel admired the sport of bodybuilding. His father was a competitive bodybuilder standing 6'3.5" tall with an impressive set of arms and a big chest. Although Joel stands only 5'8.5" tall, his father passed on his great genetics for bodybuilding. After injuring himself training for a powerlifting competition at 20 years old, Joel took a short break from the heavy training. His fellow powerlifter, Byrd Abbott, convinced him to diet down and compete at the Mr. Lake City Bodybuilding Show just 22 days later. Joel won the Mr. LC division at that contest and was hooked on the sport of bodybuilding. He continues to compete at the national level and hopes to one day compete on the Mr. Olympia stage.
Joel, with his fiancée Alyssa Crawford, a gymnast and a high school cheerleader herself, feels he has passed on his genetic gift to his two-year-old son, Blaine. Joel says, "He stomps around the house carrying a couple 5-pound dumbbells and his father's gallon water jug. He has a 'ridiculous' set of calves!"
Joel continues to train heavy and pack on quality mass. He hopes to become a professional bodybuilder in the very near future.

The Saginaw Township Police Department is kicking off the second year of the 'Lock It or Lose It' initiative over Memorial Day Weekend.
The Crime Prevention Unit of the Saginaw Township Police Department developed the campaign last year to remind residents to take three steps to ensure the safety of their property. The steps are: Remove valuables from your vehicles, lock your vehicles and report any suspicious activity.
"This crime prevention initiative truly has reduced the number of incidents of larceny from vehicles within our township," Saginaw Township Sgt. Scott Malace said.
Last year, Saginaw Township experienced a 36 percent decrease in larceny from motor vehicles during the initiative, which ran from Memorial Day to Labor Day.
According to township reports, larcenies from vehicles were down to 147 reports compared to 211 reports in 2010.
Police said this year's campaign was made possible by donations from Saginaw Bay Underwriters and Frankenmuth Mutual.
"The 'Lock It or Lose It' campaign is an excellent example of public and private entities working together to help solve a problem that affects so many people in our community," Saginaw Township officer Brian Kanicki said.
There will be posters, signs, billboards and flyers throughout the community to promote the initiative.
Contact the Crime Prevention Unit at 989-791-7210 for further information.

Key Stats: Brad Boxberger 2 IP, 2 H, 1 K; Matt Clark 1-4, HR (12), 3 RBI; Jedd Gyorko 3-5, 2B, RS, 2 RBI
The Tucson Padres scored five runs with two outs in the bottom of the fifth inning Wednesday in their 6-4 win over the Colorado Springs Sky Sox. Down 4-0 in the fifth, Jedd Gyorko hit an RBI single to score Brad Davis and move Andy Parrino to third. Matt Clark then hit a game-tying, three-run home run over the center field fence, his 12th home run of the season and first since June 7. Sawyer Carroll's RBI single in the fifth gave the Padres the lead and Gyorko's RBI double one inning later added an insurance run. Gyorko went 3-for-5 with two RBIs and is 7-for-10 with seven RBIs over his last two games.
The Padres bullpen continues to shine in late June. Jason Ray, Brad Boxberger, Miles Mikolas and Erik Hamren all tossed scoreless outings in Tucson's win Wednesday. Hamren has three saves during the Padres current four-game winning streak, their longest winning streak of the season. Padres starter Matt Palmer allowed four runs, three earned, in 4.2 innings of work.
The Padres hit three doubles Wednesday and have collected 21 doubles over their last five games. The Padres are 27-52, in fourth place, 21.5 games behind first place Sacramento in the South Division of the Pacific Conference.

Lake Elsinore Storm 5 – Inland Empire 66ers 3
Key Stats: Burch Smith 5 IP, 7 H, 2 ER, 1 BB, 6 K; Casey McElroy 2-4, 2B, HR (3), 2 RS, RBI, BB; Justin Miller 3-5, RS, 2 RBI; Tommy Medica 2-4, RBI, BB
San Bernardino — The Storm have now claimed three of the four series against the Inland Empire 66ers when Justin Miller hit a two out single in the ninth to score Connor Powers and Rico Noel giving the Storm the 5-3 win and sole possession of first place in the south division.
Miller went 3-for-5 again today with a total of 26 RBI on 49 hits in just 33 games, now with a .392 batting average.
Storm starter Burch Smith retired the first six batters and held Inland Empire scoreless through the third. In the month of June Smith has been nothing short of impressive, Smith has struck out 32 batters in 28 2/3 innings pitched, allowing only 10 runs on 20 hits and now has a 3.68 ERA.
In the fourth the Storm started the rally when Casey McElroy hit a leadoff double to right field. A pair of singles by Miller and Tommy Medica put the Storm up 1-0 as McElroy scored. Miller would score off a sacrifice fly hit by Eddy Rodriguez before the end of the inning to go ahead 2-0.
Inland Empire cut the lead in half in the bottom of the inning by way of Rolando Gomez. He reached base with a bunt single and scored on a line drive single to right field by Taylor Lindsey.
The Sixty Sixers would score a run in the next two consecutive innings highlighted by a Gomez single in the fifth scoring Jean Almanzar and Jett Bandy singling in the sixth scoring Brennan Gowens to take the 3-2 lead.
After a scoreless seventh the Storm tied the game up in the eighth. Casey McElroy hit a leadoff home run, his third for the Storm. McElroy has now hit in all eight games with the Storm scoring nine runs and five RBI hitting .500 thus far.
In the top of the ninth the Storm claimed the victory. Powers singled to right field and Noel hit a line drive single to center to put two on with two outs. Miller hit a groundball single that shot into center scoring both to win 5-3.

Lansing Lugnuts 2 – Fort Wayne TinCaps 3
Key Stats: Ruben Meja 4 IP, 3 H, 1 ER, 3 BB, 3 K; Donavan Tate 2-4, 2B, 2 K; Austin Hedges 3-4, HR (6) RBI, picked off runner from 1st
FORT WAYNE, Ind. – Down to their last out and fighting for a series victory, the Fort Wayne TinCaps rallied for the second straight game against the Lansing Lugnuts, winning 3-2 Tuesday on a walk-off base hit by Kyle Gaedele. TinCaps catcher Austin Hedges hit a game-tying home run in the bottom of the ninth, and Gaedele followed two batters later with a single to score Duanel Jones.
Lansing (3-3, 50-25) secured an early 1-0 lead against Fort Wayne (4-2, 35-41) starter Ruben Mejia in the second inning. An Andy Fermin single to right plated Andy Burns, putting the TinCaps in a hole. But Fort Wayne answered back in the third, as Felix Cabrera grounded into a game-tying double play, bringing Gaedele home to score.
The score remained tied 1-1 until the sixth, when Lansing chipped away at reliever Dennis O'Grady, taking a 2-1 lead. O'Grady delivered two innings of relief behind Mejia, who worked four frames.
After scoring once in the third, the TinCaps had one runner reach base in each of the next five innings, but couldn't get a run across. In the ninth, the first two batters were retired by Lugnuts closer Ajay Meyer (3-2). Hedges delivered the equalizer, a solo home run to left field, tying the game at two. Duanel Jones then coaxed a walk, moved to second on a Meyer balk, and scored on Gaedele's game-ending hit.
Fort Wayne secured a series win over the Lugnuts for the first time since August of 2011, and notched a 4-2 record in the first homestand of the second half. Johnny Barbato (5-0), who pitched the top of the ninth for the TinCaps, was awarded the win.

Coleman Barks (born April 23, 1937) is an American poet, and former literature faculty at the University of Georgia. Although he neither speaks nor reads Persian, he is nonetheless renowned as an interpreter of Rumi and other mystic poets of Persia.
Early life and background[edit]
Barks is a native of Chattanooga, Tennessee. He attended the Baylor School as a teenager, then studied collegiately at the University of North Carolina and the University of California, Berkeley.
Barks taught literature at the University of Georgia for three decades.
Barks makes frequent international appearances and is well known throughout the Middle East. Barks' work has contributed to an extremely strong following of Rumi in the English-speaking world.[1] Due to his work, the ideas of Sufism have crossed many cultural boundaries over the past few decades. Coleman Barks received an honorary doctorate from Tehran University in 2006.[2]
He has also read his original poetry at the Geraldine R. Dodge Poetry Festival. In March 2009 Barks was inducted to the Georgia Writers' Hall of Fame.[3]
Personal life[edit]
He currently lives in Athens, Georgia, where he interprets the writings of Rumi and composes poetry of his own. In early 2011, Barks suffered a stroke that has somewhat impaired his speech and has resulted in at least one cancelled appearance.[4]
Rumi translations[edit]
Barks has published several volumes of Rumi's poetry since 1976, including The Hand of Poetry, Five Mystic Poets of Persia in 1993, The Essential Rumi in 1995 and The Book of Love in 2003.
Barks does not speak or read Persian; his 'translations' are therefore technically paraphrases. Barks bases his paraphrases entirely on other English translations of Rumi which include renderings by John Moyne and Reynold A. Nicholson.[5] In addition, while the original Persian poetry of Rumi is heavily rhymed and metered, Barks has used primarily free verse. In some instances, he will also skip[6] or mix lines and metaphors from different poems into one 'translation'.
For example, here is a very literal rendering by Reynold A. Nicholson,
"On the Day of Resurrection every hidden thing will be made manifest: every sinner will be ignominiously exposed by himself.
His hands and feet will give evidence and declare his iniquity in the presence of Him whose help is sought.
His hand will say, 'I have stolen such and such'; his lip will say, 'I have asked such and such questions';
His foot will say. 'I have gone to (enjoy) things desired'; his pudendum will say, 'I have committed fornication.'
His eye will say, 'I have cast amorous glances at things forbidden'; his ear will say, 'I have gathered evil words.'
Therefore he is a lie from head to foot, for even his own members give him the lie,
Just as, in (the case of) the specious prayers (performed by the ascetic), their fine appearance was proved to be false testimonio testiculi.
Act, then, in such wise that the action itself, without (your) tongue (uttering a word), will be (equivalent to) saying 'I testify' and (to making) the most explicit declaration,
So that your whole body, limb by limb, O son, will have said 'I testify' as regards both good and ill.
The slave's walking behind his master is a testimony (equivalent to saying), 'I am subject to authority and this man is my lord.'"[7]
And Barks' version of the same passage,
"On Resurrection Day your body testifies against you.
Your hand says, 'I stole money.'
Your lips, 'I said meanness.'
Your feet, 'I went where I shouldn't.'
Your genitals, 'Me Too.'
They will make your praying sound hypocritical
Let the body's doings speak openly now,
without your saying a word,
as a student's walking behind a teacher
says, "This one knows more clearly
than I the way."[8]
Original poetry[edit]
Barks has published several volumes of his own poetry, including Gourd Seed, "Quickly Aging Here", Tentmaking, and, in 2001, Granddaughter Poems, a collection of Coleman's poetry about his granddaughter, Briny Barks, with illustrations by Briny. Harper published his first book of poetry, The Juice, in 1972.

By Rick Warren
— May 21, 2014
I have no greater joy than to hear that my children are walking in the truth. (3 John 4 NIV)
Sunday is Pastor Appreciation Day (October 9). Take some time to pray for your pastor, and then on Sunday, affirm your pastor. Then keep doing this every week.
Being a pastor is one of the toughest jobs on the planet, but the apostle John says it can also be the most joyful: "I have no greater joy than to hear that my children are walking in the truth" (3 John 4 NIV).
Spiritual leaders must correctly teach God's Word, confront false teaching before it spreads, proclaim the Gospel to non-believers, pray for all people, and train and appoint leaders. They must do this all while serving as examples of what it looks like when you're maturing in Christlikeness (see 1 and 2 Timothy; Titus).
Accordingly, the apostle Paul says we should respect our spiritual leaders, overwhelming them with appreciation: "Hold them in the highest regard in love because of their work" (1 Thessalonians 5:13 NIV).
You can see the enormous responsibility a pastor has to stay in sync with God and to encourage you to stay in sync also. Your pastor is human and every bit as capable as you or me of making mistakes or slipping into sin. Pray that your pastor will stay focused on Jesus and that your pastor's ministry will flow from that intimacy. There is nothing the enemy wants more than to distract your pastor from his purpose by getting him distracted.
Pray for your pastor's protection, because the push-back he feels from the enemy comes in strong every time your pastor proclaims God's truth. It gets even stronger the closer he gets to Christ.
Pray that your pastor will know deep within his soul that "not even death or life, angels or rulers, things present or things to come, ?hostile? powers, height or depth, or any other created thing will have the power to separate us from the love of God that is in Christ Jesus our Lord!" (Romans 8:38-39 HCSB). And then let your pastor know that your love will never cease, that you are committed to loving your pastor with the love of Jesus Christ.
Now think of some practical bit of service you can do for your pastor, and do it this coming week.

CHARLES TOWN - Students involved with Washington High School's FFA established their roots in the community with a tree planting Saturday morning, an effort to beautify the school and do some good for the environment.
The planting effort took place from 9 a.m. until noon, with donuts and juice to help students wake up and get ready to work. The Washington High School FFA planted a total of 24 trees, 12 on each side of the entrance to the school off Augustine Avenue. At 11 a.m., Citizens Fire Company brought engines with hoses to water the newly-planted trees.
The project was done as a part of West Virginia Project CommuniTree, a state-wide program through the Cacapon Institute that focuses on tree planting and public education about conservation and land use.

Washington High School students plant trees Saturday at the entrance to the school.
Katlin Thorsell, one of the agriculture teachers and FFA advisors at WHS, said she was contacted by Tanner Haid of the Cacapon Institute, who helped her and her students get ready for Saturday's tree planting.
"One of the reasons we're doing it is to increase tree canopy, especially in this area," Thorsell said. "There's a lot of open area here by the school and we felt that this community gives a lot to us, the school gives a lot to us, so we wanted to give something back. In later years, the kids can say, 'I helped plant those trees' and we're trying to make it look nice on campus."
According to Thorsell, the Washington High School FFA has not done a project like this in the past. She said the FFA may do a similar project again, since the tree planting was easy to set up.
"I think it's a great program, because honestly, Mr. Haid took care of a lot of the planning. Our job was to get the work here and make sure it was okay to plant the trees. In the future, we could probably do it again because it was a very simple, easy process," Thorsell said.
Blayne Ott, a senior at Washington who has been involved with the school's FFA for three years, planted trees with a group of her friends.
"We're planting trees along the front entrance of the school," Ott said. "It's a community project and it's a good project for our chapter to help beautify the school some."
Ott said she enjoyed getting her hands dirty and doing something she normally doesn't do.
"It's good to get your hands dirty every once in a while. You don't usually get to plant a lot of trees on farms, especially when you do something like raise livestock, which is what I do. It's good to work with plants every now and then to get that different aspect of it," she said.

The truest of athletes never back down from a challenge.
They crave such competition.
Those types of games and individual competitions make the hairs on the back of one's neck bristle. Their blood boils. Their adrenaline surges.
Article Photos
Athletes live for those moments.
The state will be treated to one of those junctures at high noon on Saturday in Wheeling Island Stadium as defending state Class AAA champion Martinsburg tangles with fellow unbeaten George Washington for the 2011 state crown.
If the cliche holds true that "to be the best, you have to beat the best," all the ingredients are there for the Bulldogs and Patriots to experience it firsthand.
It's the best football player in the state, an athlete in GW's Ryan Switzer, who has run away from the pack this season and will run away with the Kennedy Award, against the best defense in the state, a gifted group led by Logan Jenkins that protects the goal line with the same energy it would use in keeping a loved one from tumbling over a perilous cliff.
It's Ali versus Frazier, it's that compelling.
It's even more exciting than wondering which team the West Virginia Supreme Court would put against Martinsburg in last year's state title game, because it always seemed the judges would side with the rules of the game and there was no debate whether players deemed ineligible by the state Secondary School Activities Commission would ultimately remain that way. Then we had a 30-0 blowout by Martinsburg over Brooke when they did play the game.
While that one was the lone game in a contest delayed a week by the court challenges, no doubt the main event of the Super Six weekend is absolutely the George Washington-Martinsburg game.
The best against the best - the penultimate athletic challenge.
It's one of those hair-raising, blood-boiling, adrenaline-surging contests.
Yet, it could wind up lopsided.
No question, it's the matchup Martinsburg wanted, even though three teams entered the Class AAA postseason with unblemished regular-season records and the now odd-team out, Bridgeport, ranked No. 2 in the computer rankings to determine playoff seeds.
"If we didn't play them, everybody would be saying Martinsburg got a copout," Martinsburg's Cedric Brown said. "Everybody says they have the best player. It's all definitely based on him."
Switzer has piled up 2,663 rushing yards, scored a total of 42 touchdowns this season and scored a total of 252 points - more than half of the Patriots' 493 total. He sometimes is bottled up for a time and then explodes with his quickness and speed down the rainbow to the pot of gold.
While Martinsburg has yielded 76 points to 13 opponents (a nominal average of 5.8 points per game), the defense of Jenkins, Martinsburg's all-time top tackler who better win the Huff Award as the state's top defensive player, has allowed but 42 points (an impressive average of 3.2). The other points have been scored on an interception return, on two kickoff returns and against the junior varsity defense.
George Washington coach Steve Edwards Jr. watched in person as Martinsburg's defense stifled Morgantown during a 38-14 victory. The Mohigans had a punt return set up one touchdown and scored their second touchdown on a kickoff return.
Watching from the Morgantown stands, where former West Virginia football coach Bill Stewart also was there to watch his son, Blaine, it's hard to determine what Edwards could actually glean from the proceedings. He did see the Bulldogs in person, at least.
That's more than Martinsburg coach David Walker can say. He will look at Switzer and George Washington for the first time when both teams come out for pregame warmups on Saturday.
Walker decided several seasons ago that watching a team live doesn't provide the same benefit as what he can ascertain on film, so he didn't attend Friday night's 21-14 win by George Washington over Bridgeport in which Switzer struck the end zone three times.
He did see Morgantown again in person - the two teams played in the regular season - during the first round of the playoffs when the Mohigans played Musselman. Walker was on his way to the next playoff meeting in Parkersburg a day later.
"I wanted to support the local team," Walker said.
He will give the "local team" his utmost support this week, as the Bulldogs are it.
Martinsburg was getting ready already Saturday night. The Bulldog players assembled about five hours after their game with Morgantown ended to watch film of their game with the Mohigans.
That's leaving nothing for chance, of course.
That's also being dedicated athletes.
The truest of athletes.
That's searching for that challenge the crave.
The Bulldogs look to get it.
Their hair is already raising on their necks. Their blood is warming. The adrenaline is ripening.
Could they ask for anything more?

At Wednesday's GQ Men of the Year Party in Los Angeles, a fully-clothed Johnston told PEOPLE that he sees a little bit of himself in his son. "He is very funky," Johnston says. "He's got a lot of energy. He's always looking to mess things up, break things. He's crazy."
Johnston, 19, says that the best thing about being a dad is "just the excitement of watching him grow up. There's a lot of responsibilities you take on. I became a teenager and I grew up really fast."
Earlier this week, Johnston – who split from Sarah Palin's daughter Bristol in March – announced that he is seeking joint custody of Tripp. He claims that the Palin family is allegedly making it difficult for him to see his son.
Johnston tells PEOPLE that he is currently single, a fact that might change after his nude shots go public.

Ryan Zimmerman May Play A Bit At First Base
An MRI revealed inflammation in Ryan Zimmerman's throwing shoulder a few days ago, but on Monday night, Nationals manager Matt Williams described it as an "arthritic" condition during a radio interview with 106.7 The Fan FM.
"We have to look at Ryan, though, and say, 'Would I like Ryan to play third?' Yeah, I would. For a long time? Yes," Williams told the station. "But the fact of the matter is, Ryan's got an arthritic shoulder."
"So it gives us options, it gives him an option to go play first when his shoulder's bothering him, or he needs a day, his legs need a day from playing third, or whatever it is," said Williams.

A new census in India revealed a growing gender gap between children in the country, sparking "grave concern" among officials that parents who preferred sons were getting abortions.
Currently, for every 1,000 boys under the age of six, there are only 914 girls. Ten years ago, there were 927 girls per 1,000 boys.
"Whatever policies we have been following need a complete review because we are not able to arrest the decline in child sex ratio," Indian Home Secretary G.K. Pillai said.
"I think that is really the message... whatever measures that have been put into [place] over the last 40 years has not had any impact on child sex ratio," Pillai said.
Indians prefer male children over females because of the enormous expense of arranged marriages. Males are also seen as providers who will stay with their families and be less of a burden.
India now prevents doctors from telling parents the sex of their unborn children because the government fears parents would abort girls.
The census also showed a striking growth in population. India now makes up 17 percent of the world's population with more than 1.2 billion residents.
That's more people than the United States, Indonesia, Brazil, Japan, Bangladesh, and Pakistan combined.

New claims made in spyware lawsuit against North East company
A lawsuit filed in federal court in Erie two years ago alleged a Montana rental chain franchisee illegally used spyware developed by a North East company to snap webcam photos and capture the screen shots and keystrokes of an unwitting computer owner as he sat playing online poker in his Wyoming home.
The Aaron's Inc. franchisee from which the man and his wife bought the computer used the software, PC Rental Agent, to track the couple under the mistaken belief that they had not fully paid for their computer.
New filings in Brian and Crystal Byrd's long-pending complaint say records show that between June 2009 and January 2012, more than 800 customers were similarly spied on and that sensitive personal information -- including legal documents, medical and financial records, Social Security and personal identification numbers, even photos of computer users engaged in sexual activity -- was transmitted from the users' computers through Aaron's Inc.'s server and made available to Aaron's franchisees across the country.
"This highly confidential information has been circulated repeatedly without encryption over the Internet and stored on numerous computers," the plaintiffs' lawyers wrote in court records.
PC Rental Agent, developed by DesignerWare of North East, had been marketed to help rental stores track down stolen computer equipment. In its "detective mode," it secretly captures a user's keystrokes and screen images and uses the computer webcam to take a picture of the computer's user, which the plaintiffs charge is a violation of the Electronic Communications Privacy Act.
The plaintiffs said when information surfaced in July amid the ongoing litigation revealing the extent of the Aaron's franchisees' use of the DesignerWare software, they worked with Aaron's Inc. to mediate the dispute.
Their goal, the plaintiffs said, was to "take steps to contact Aaron's customers to protect them."
That mediation failed in January, and the plaintiffs are now asking a federal judge in Erie to intervene.
The plaintiffs' lawyers in recent days have filed a series of requests they say are aimed at making records of the spyware activity public so customers who were targeted can take steps to protect themselves from identity theft and fraud. They reject Aaron's claims that only its franchisees took part in the surveillance of customers because, they argue, the Aaron's Inc.'s server enabled the surveillance.
Aaron's has not yet filed a response in court. In a recently released statement, the company said "Aaron's, Inc. respects our customers' privacy. Not one of our 1,300-plus company-operated stores has used PC Rental Agent or any other product developed by DesignerWare LLC. The customers referenced in recent filings in the Byrd litigation are customers of certain independently owned and operated Aaron's franchisees and are not customers of Aaron's, Inc. The referenced DesignerWare emails were caused by actions taken by the certain franchisees, not Aaron's, Inc."
U.S. Magistrate Judge Susan Paradise Baxter on Feb. 28 gave the company and the other defendants until Thursday to file responses to a proposed new version of the Byrds' lawsuit.
The plaintiffs want to amend their lawsuit to include as defendants dozens more Aaron's Inc. franchisees. They are also seeking an injunction ordering Aaron's and its franchisees to alert all customers who were targeted by PC Rental Agent's detective mode.
At the outset, Aaron's Inc. issued a statement in May 2011 stating that Aaron's was conducting an investigation and "diligently reaching out" to customers, the plaintiff said.
The plaintiffs claim Aaron's Inc. has not contacted any customers or instructed its franchisees to contact those who had the spyware run on their computers to notify them that their personal information was compromised.
They say they viewed the records revealing the widespread use of the spyware under a confidentiality agreement with Aaron's Inc. The plaintiffs want the judge to end that agreement so the plaintiffs can contact those whose "private and sensitive information has been seized without their knowledge."
The Byrds' case against DesignerWare was suspended in March 2012 when the company filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection, according to court records.
In September, DesignerWare entered a consent decree with the Federal Trade Commission in which it agreed to scale back its technology.

To the Editor:
Lately I have been pondering our individualized American culture and the older generations. My grandfather, who is a survivor of the Great Depression and a World War II veteran, is the biggest opponent of social programs that I know, except for Social Security. Being a master's in social work student with a very different view, I find it interesting a man whose entire lifestyle took a 180-degree turn when the stock market crashed, is so against ideas that are based on programs that put the country back on track. Did I mention his favorite president is FDR?
My grandfather is one of the strongest men I know; he has worked hard for everything he owns. I wonder if it was this struggle that led him to his current beliefs in the evils of socialism taking over our government, or if it is just a lingering stigma brought on by the wars and the Cold War.
Had that not been a part of our history, would we be more like the rest of Western civilization, way more progressive in how our country takes care of our citizens?

When the ice cold water poured out of the cooler and onto Chris Kubik's shoulders, it caught the Madison coach by surprise.
The feeling should have been expected though after Madison, No. 13 in The Star-Ledger Top 20, captured its third straight section title by defeating Mountain Lakes, 13-0, in the NJSIAA North Jersey, Section 2, Group 2 final Saturday morning at Kean University in Union.
Photo Gallery: Madison wins North 2, Group 2 title, 13-0 over Mtn. Lakes
Video: Madison shuts out Mtn. Lakes, 13-0, for North 2, Group 2 title
"I'm a little numb right now, it hasn't really sunk in yet thinking about three straight," Kubik said. "It's a great thing for this program and it sets us apart a little bit."
A big second quarter provided all the offense needed by Madison to get the shutout victory. Madison's defense was able to slow down Mountain Lakes' running back trio of Uzoma Egbuchulam, Spencer Herman and Michael Sammarro, holding the group to 145 total rushing yards.
Madison's defense also came up big when it counted most, stopping Mountain Lakes on four fourth down conversion tries.
"They were awesome," Kubik said of his defense. "Getting a shutout in the state finals is a big deal. That's a big one."
After a scoreless first quarter, it was only a matter of time before Madison senior running back Justin Goodwin made a big play. Midway through the second quarter, the Rutgers-bound back took an end around on a fake reverse and broke loose up the sideline for a 43-yard touchdown.
On the next drive, Madison's Jaywon Brown recovered a Mountain Lakes fumble. Just two minutes later, Kubik used some trickery and, on a toss pass play, Goodwin hit a wide-open Joey Geyer in the end zone for a 20-yard touchdown. Mountain Lakes blocked the extra point to make the score 13-0.
The Madison defense needed no more.
"Our defense played great, especially down in the red zone and stopping them on fourth down," Goodwin said, who finished the game with 124 rushing yards on 17 carries to go with the score on the ground.
With just under three minutes left, Mountain Lakes had the ball near midfield with the chance to cut into Madison's lead. Back-to-back sacks on third and fourth down by Nick Haboj and Shone Register, respectively, all but sealed the deal for Madison.
For Madison's 15 seniors, including its talented backfield of Goodwin, Register, Layton Lassiter and his brother, Carson, the quarterback, it was a perfect ending to an already storied high school career.
"This means everything, all the hard work that we put in year-in and year-out," Goodwin said. "All the preparation and dedication, this is what we work for."
Madison ends the season by extending its state-leading winning streak to 37 games. Kubik said it was the perfect exclamation point to send off his seniors.
"This what they deserve. This is an outstanding senior class," Kubik said. "They deserve all the recognition that they get. I'm going to miss them, but today is their day. It's all about them."

Protesters call for Obama's impeachment
UPDATED 6:50 PM EDT Aug 03, 2013
A small group gathered on an Interstate 65 overpass Saturday afternoon to protest President Obama.
The demonstrators carried signs and waved American flags at southbound traffic.
It was actually part of a nationwide effort called Overpasses For Obama's Impeachment.
"The NSA, Benghazi, IRS scandals, look at the list, it goes on and on. When is enough enough?" said protester Steven Lively.
Overpasses For Obama's Impeachment began in mid-June. Since then, protest groups have been formed in all 50 states.

1934 "World Series" Pinball Machine
Starting Bid - $400.00, Sold For - $1,508.00
Produced by Rockola in 1934, this early baseball pinball game invites the user to test his skill for only a nickel. The interior game panel is titled "World Series" and features colorful graphics of ballplayers in action. The insertion of a nickel provides the user with a fresh supply of balls until three outs are made. There are no flippers and the movement of the ball is dependent upon its natural momentum as it weaves its way down the inclined surface through a maze of pins. The game "action" is determined by the final location of the ball, which will eventually rest in any number of chutes marked hit, strike, ball, out, etc. A hit sends the ball onto a rotating "diamond" that keeps track of the base runners and records the runs made. Included with the game is the original advertising broadside. The cardboard flyer (13 x 6 inches) has been framed in a manner that allows it to be attached to the top of the game by means of screws. The game, which includes its original legs, is in working order and displays only general wear commensurate with its age and use. Excellent condition overall. The flyer is in Very Good condition, with a small tear in the center as well a few surface abrasions. Wood, metal and glass construction. Approximately 36(L) x 16(W) x 56(H) inches. This is an exceptional example of one of the early classics of baseball coin-operated machines. Please note: due to the extremely large dimensions of the display, the shipping charges for this piece (depending on where it is sent and method of shipping) may be substantial. Also, the game will be shipped disassembled, with the legs removed for easier transport. Reserve $400. Estimate $800/$1,200. SOLD FOR $1,508.00

Hi! My name is Tootsie
I am Domestic Mediumhair from Severna Park, MD
Nicknames: Tootsie-Pop, Tootsie-Pie, Tootsie-Roll, Fatso(for her plumpness), The Nuerotic One, Druffy(for her cat-dandruff)
Age: 7 years old
Gender: F
Coat: short haired
Education: "Guess what? I have figured out how to open those infernally frustrating human doors! All I have to do is: jump up next to the metal handle, hook my back claws into the doorframe, use my front paws to scrabble on the metal handle and pull it down, and VOILA! The door is open! However, I have found 1 flaw in my method . . . it only works if I am on a certain side."
My favorite tricks and treats are: I can rollover, but only when I want to! and I love chicken flavor treats!
Where I hang out: In warm spaces, in the middle of the floor, on plush things (like my favorite pink rug . . . !).
My favorite grubs: I will eat anything! Even dogfood! (In my defense, it was just sitting there and it did not look like he was gonna eat it anyway.)
My pet peeves: I HATE water with a burning passion!!!!!
What I love about my owners: One particular owner loves me for who I am. Shedoes not call me "Druffy" or "Fatso" or anything insulting like that. In fact, she's the only one who seems to know that . . . I CAN HEAR YOU WHEN YOU SAY THAT, YA' KNOW!!!
My cat hobbies: I love to sleep. I love to eat. I love to cuddle.
Pet motto: "Feed me . . . Feed me . . . Feed me . . . (This mind control thing will work eventually!)"
