CBNNews.com - GAZA STRIP - The Israel Air Force (IAF) targeted two Hamas posts in the Gaza Strip early Monday in response to weekend rocket attacks.
IAF aircraft hit a Hamas security facility in Khan Younis in southern Gaza and also destroyed a rocket-launching pad in northern Gaza early Monday morning. No one was injured in either strike.
Both air strikes were in retaliation for Palestinian rocket attacks over the weekend.
In a separate incident, an Islamic Jihad terrorist died overnight Sunday when IDF (Israel Defense Forces) troops opened fired, detonating his explosives belt, as he attempted to cross the border.
Islamic Jihad confirmed the report in a statement faxed to reporters, which said he had been dispatched to attack an IDF patrol along the Gaza border.
Over the weekend, a Kassam rocket exploded in a kibbutz parking lot in Sha'ar Hanegev region, heavily damaging two vehicles.
Later, a Grad-type Katyusha rocket hit the coastal city of Ashkelon, where a low-level emergency status remains in place, two weeks after Operation Cast Lead, municipality spokeswoman Anat Wienstein-Berkovits said.
No one was injured in the attack.
"We thought this [rocket attacks] would continue," Ashkelon Deputy Mayor Shlomo Cohen said. "Whoever believed Operation Cast Lead would end the rockets in one fell swoop is beginning to understand that the reality is different," he said.
In the two weeks since the cease-fire was announced, Palestinians in the Gaza Strip have fired more than 35 Kassam rockets, mortar shells and Grad Katyusha missiles on southern Israel, an IDF official said.
Meanwhile, despite the continuing rocket fire, Israel has opened the border crossings to transfer humanitarian aid to Gaza residents.
Truckloads of meat and dairy products, eggs, flour, sugar and rice, cooking oil, and nearly 2,000 tons of grain have been delivered to the Strip.
The Nahal Oz Fuel Depot transferred nearly 800,000 liters of diesel fuel.
According to IDF Major Peter Lerner, more than 77,000 tons of humanitarian aid and nearly 570,000,000 liters of fuel for the Gaza power station have been delivered since January 18.

The draw for the group stage of the UEFA Champions League was made on Thursday, and we now know the challenge awaiting Europe's finest when the action kicks off on September 18.
As ever, we were dealt a "group of death." Real Madrid, Manchester City and Borussia Dortmund all won their respective league titles last season, but that hasn't stopped them being drawn together in Group D with Ajax.
Defending champions Chelsea have also drawn one of Europe's big hitters in Italian champions Juventus, but both will feel confident of finishing ahead of Nordsjælland and Shakhtar Donetsk in Group E.
Elsewhere, there were relatively straightforward draws for Barcelona, Manchester United and Bayern Munich, while Arsenal will also be fancied to emerge in the knockout stages.
Here are my winners and losers from the draw in Monaco.

Japan's largest protected wetland, at 45,200 acres, is the Kushiro Shitsugen National Park (釧路湿原国立公園). Birdwatchers flock here in winter to see tancho cranes, but the wetlands are home to many other birds and animals, including deer, grey herons, whooper swans and eagles.
One of the best places to observe the cranes is actually just north of the park, in the fields near the village of TSURUI (鶴居), an hour's drive north of Kushiro, at the Tsurui Itō Japanese Crane Sanctuary (鶴居•伊藤タンチョウサンクチュアリ). Half an hour further north of here towards Akan, the Akan International Crane Centre GRUS has breeding facilities and an interesting exhibition hall.

Dark gray/black iPhone 6 leaks in dozens of new high-res snaps
0. phoneArena 17 Jun 2014, 05:39 posted on
Readying a super high-profile device has its downsides, and Apple is on the receiving end of those. The upcoming iPhone 6 has been leaking all over the place as of late, and this trend is sure to intensify in the coming months, as we draw ever closer to September, when the Cupertino-based company is rumored to release the its next flagship...

Looks very nice.
I would like to get my hands on one of those, would much prefer it over my Lumia and any Androd, but the price is what keeps me away.
52. sbw44 (Posts: 433; Member since: 04 Dec 2012)
the sides look like a Lumia 925. But looks cool btw
55. garyII (Posts: 160; Member since: 26 Feb 2014)
somehow, i feel that iphone 5s is ways better than it, and for the last pic, victory is definitely belongs to M8...lol

I'd read that the rear Apple cut out was likely not going to be used for a notification light. Which I personally think would be a missed opportunity.
But the blue cover/case does have a cutout there, so maybe, who knows?
Still think it looks like a Galaxy *insert troll meme* ;)
69. fzacek (Posts: 2486; Member since: 26 Jan 2014)
They always have that cut out for the Apple logo on iPhone cases. To show everyone how classy and cool you are for owning an iPhone...
60. fzacek (Posts: 2486; Member since: 26 Jan 2014)
It has a very bland design. Nothing special...
63. zuckerboy (banned) (Posts: 898; Member since: 22 Dec 2011)
after galaxy s5 everything looking good...
65. fzacek (Posts: 2486; Member since: 26 Jan 2014)
Hmmm, I think the Galaxy S5 looks better than this. I've seen the S5 in real life and it actually looks and feels pretty good...
68. Astoni (Posts: 649; Member since: 28 Sep 2013)
I've been playing around with a white s5 for a little while now and i like it and it looks better in real life than on a screen.. much slimmer overall but i think i'm going to stick to Note as my next choice :)

the back looks fake
73. kopkiwi (Posts: 50; Member since: 31 May 2013)
Thought the design was pretty boring and tries to be a heck of a lot like HTC One. If Apple released this first, then HTC the M8 after, HTC would be court.
76. Jurdiales (Posts: 133; Member since: 10 Oct 2012)
It looks EXACTLY as the HTC FIRST.

Besides the amazing fresh new design , the comfort is amazing. I own some of the Ultra boosts and although the bounce doesn't have Boost , it's really up there in terms of the comfort. And the price tag is even more amazing. All shoes should cost this much lol ... read more
What a great running shoe for the price ! This is what the ultra boost should have been. The Alphabounce is a real comfortable shoe with nice rebound. These are a more firm feel compared to any shoe with the Boost material but they have a good feel of their own. The upper seamless material is very comfortable. Not as restrictive as the techfit in the 1st and 2nd gen energy boost and not as tight as the ultra boost. It has just the right amount of secure and firm snug fit with out restricting the movement of your foot and it has a better vent system as well. I have 3 pairs of Alphabounce each in a different color ... read more
The purpose of this appraisal is to evaluate the Adidas Ultra Boost running shoe based on three criteria. These criteria include comfort, durability, and performance. With the latest technology integrated into their product, Adidas claims that the Ultra Boost is currently the best running shoe on the market. Therefore, the targeted market for this product is frequent runners (~30 miles per week). Comfort When looking for a running shoe, comfort is my main priority. I define comfort as the ability to go on a 10 mile run without feeling any discomfort. The Adidas Ultra Boost integrates one of its newest technologies, Boost, into the sole of the shoe. The Boost sole literally feels like you're walking on a cloud. It is extremely responsive and you feel the material squish with every step. This helps to minimize the negative impact that running has on your joints. Unfortunately, I did notice that the shoe fits very narrow. If you are someone with wider feet, you might want to find a wider shoe. After wearing the Adidas Ultra Boost for multiple runs and feeling no discomfort in my feet, I can confidently say that the comfort of the Ultra Boost is top-of-the-line and ideal for frequent runners. Durability Since the Adidas Ultra Boost is relatively expensive ($180), most users are going to want to get their money's worth. I define durability as a shoe that can remain in good condition for 6 months while running 30 miles per week. In my experience, I have went on 10 mile runs every other day for four months, and the shoes have shown minimal signs of wear. The tread on the bottom of the shoe is still fresh, resulting in a great grip between the shoe and the terrain. Based on what I have already experienced, I expect this great condition to continue for the next several months. Therefore, the Adidas Ultra Boost is great in terms of durability for frequent running. Performance I rate the performance of a running shoe based on its support and grip. The upper part of the Adidas Ultra Boost is constructed out of Primeknit, a formfitting material that adapts to the natural curvature of the foot. Primeknit provides a snug, sock-like fit, ensuring that your foot is well supported. The Continental rubber outsole is made from the same material as automobile tires—ensuring the best grip in wet and dry conditions. The performance of the Adidas Ultra Boost is unmatched by other shoes. After a thorough evaluation of the Adidas Ultra Boost, I can see why Adidas claims to have created the best running shoe. The Ultra Boost has excelled in comfort, durability, and performance, making it an ideal shoe for frequent runners. I highly suggest purchasing this shoe, and I hope you have the same positive experience that I've had. ... read more
I bought these to wear out and they are exactly what I was hoping for. They look super trendy and feel like a million bucks. So impressed Adidas. Who knows, maybe I'll try a run in them when my Pure Cadence wear out. ... read more
The Ultra Boosts are great shoes with two critical flaws in my experience (if you are using them as running shoes): 1) Primeknit durability, and 2) sockliner quality. 1) Primeknit durability: Within a few months of use, the Primeknit upper (which is super comfortable, btw) started to fray on the outside of the left foot. A month later, there was a visible hole that got bigger with each run. The shoes will soon be retired to "around the house" wear as my pinky toe is starting to poke out of the shoe. Suboptimal performance for a shoe at this price point. 2) Sockliner quality: After a few runs, I noticed that the balls of my feet would hurt after a mile or so. I took out the sockliner, compared it to the sockliner in my Energy Boost 2s, and noticed that the Energy Boost had a much thicker sockliner. I put those in my Ultra Boosts and the problem went away - I'd recommend doing something similar if you get these, but adidas should consider a redesign to address the issue. Overall impression: great shoe for everyday wear, good running shoe with some critical flaws, and recommend with some hesitation. ... read more
I like the looks of these sneakers (Ultra Boost ST). But that's it. I to a couple people here and a friend that for Adidas. They all thought that these would work for me. I work all nite on a concrete floor and my feet hurt bad. And my knees to. I'm a big person. So I bought these for only work. tried them last nite. I made it for about 3 1/2 hours and to go back to my old sneakers. The Ultra Boost ST's end up not really helping. No arch support. I am very disappointed. For what they cost and the way I was told I expected more from them. ... read more
It's not been a year since I bought these shoes and the sole has cracked of both the shoes. I have a back problem so I needed shoes with extra cushion, I don't run I just walk and they couldn't sustain even a year. Spending $192 for 10 months is not justifiable. i don't know how long will they last for the people who run. ... read more
Unlike all the hypebeasts out there I actually run in these, with that said I can say that these are the most comfortable running shoes I have ever had. very comfortable. They also give you that spring in your step you need for running. 10/10 ... read more
I have a different color pair for each day of the week. I am not even kidding. Some for dress and some for hard wear. Hands down this is the most comfortable shoe I've ever worn. For anything. Boost tech is incredible. Mix in the Primeknit upper and it becomes better yet. ... read more
This is my favorite shoe of all time because of comfort and aesthetics BUT for 180$ they wear out very fast I'm not even running in them and after one day of just waliking at school I had parts of the sole That were all worn out and flat PLEASE MAKE OUTSOLE MORE DURABLE!! ... read more
mesh over the front toe area is not supportive enough. On a down hill run my foot slides forward laking enough stability. That said it is the most comfortable run in my life. Looking for a different model with more support up front with the same comfort. HHmmmmm ... read more
I'll start by saying I bought these for running and casual wear. I am really excited about these shoes. They are extremly soft and have responsive cushioning, I Didn't get what that meant until I actually put in the running miles. I live in the city so mainly I run on hard pavement and these bad boys did everything right, when your foot hits the ground it supports all of your foot and not just the heel and when your ready to go up for the next stride it is really good at responding to that. I urge those on the fence as I was for three months to get em! Worth the expense if it doesn't dent your wallet so badly. Also for my fellow sneakerheads these look great with joggers, jeans, and khakis, no question they are worth the hype. ... read more
I've been wearing this shoe casually for the past 2 weeks and I could not be more happy with it. The shoe is unbelievably comfortable. It's great for people who've come off of knee surgery. It provides the shock absorption that I so desperately need. Big ups to Adidas for making a quality shoe ... read more
I have long been a serious adidas fan and when I saw this shoe I had to try it. I wanted this shoe as a runner and a trainer and it did not disappoint. I've always used adidas specialty shoes for fencing using their fencing specific shoes for fencing training and competition. As a fencer and runner I put a lot of abuse on my feet so I always look to adidas for footwear. This she is excellent not just for its low price tag but for any shoe of any price. The support is perfect for me and the responsiveness and bounce I find to work well for me. A great shoe loved it so much I bought two pairs, one in the hard to find core black/crystal white aramis dot pattern and one in the core black metallic silver. I don't wear this as a lifestyle shoe but as a functional runner and trainer and even use for fencing practice. For me this shoe is simply excellent. ... read more
These have got to be the most uncomfortable shoes I have ever owned. There is almost no cushion it feels like walking on boards, there's a tongue seem that digs into your upper foot that is just painful after a short time. Got my pair and it was very clear that one shoe was stiffer than the other so it leaves you feeling off balance. Sure they look great but these are the worst shoes I have ever owned , its painful to walk in these let alone run. So disappointed in my purchase. ... read more
Great sneakers! They run about a 1/2 size big but they are extremely comfortable. I like the style of the shoe and I can't wait for other color ways. My only issue with the shoe is that the material gets dirty really quick. I chose the grayish color and I have so many stains on them from running. All black is my next choice ... read more
I am majorly impressed with these shoes. They are some of the lesser expensive shoes that addidas has to offer and they are much higher quality than I expected. They are insanely grippy, insanely light, and the breathe REALLY well. Every time a gust of wind comes my way, I can feel it between my toes. When I'm walking/ running, it feels no heavier than wearing socks! I'm a real customer by the way, in case you think I'm just some addidas rep trying to deceive all of you lol. ... read more
Head turner out of the box. I wore them to a performance in a room full of people and I got stopped 10 times before I could reach the stage. People wanting to know what kind of shoes they were, where did I get them, did the store have any more. The whole nine. My drummer took one off of my foot to get a closer look. Adidas has been on a roll with these new designs lately. I've purchased more Adidas in the last 4 years than I have in my life and I'm in my late 30s. ... read more
love the feel of boost on the shoe... the torsion system gets torn up pretty quickly and isn't the most stylish shoe... but works great for cross country and has a lot of mileage with minimum signs of being worn! ... read more
I ran my first Hood to Coast with these bad boys and I can confidently say that they were a huge reason I managed to complete the race in good time and less pain than expected. Keep up the good product creation! ... read more
I love the feel of the shoes, I would pay over and over for the shoes. Like I said I would if they would last long enough to break them in and be open to the idea of purchasing another pair and having a second pair. Unfortunately by the time you break them in its time for a new pair. I won't talk trash about the shoes, I know they are the best pair of shoes I have ever worn. Just make them them last longer than 2 months. ... read more
I'm a size 11, but I decided to try the shoes in a size 10.5. To my surprise the shoes actually "adapted" to my foot. I could wear these all day, in fact I already do. These shoes are perfect for everyday life and running. ... read more
Great fit like a glove. Very stylish!!!! All I get is compliments when I wear them. I wear them for sprints and interval workouts. Good price. I hope more unique color patterns are developed by adidas ... read more
I have two pairs of the Ultra Boost and both have torn in the exact same spot. I have worn each pair a maximum of 10 times to work (nothing strenuous) and neither held up to simple walking. Very disappointed. ... read more
the price point is unbeatable, the comfort is there, but most importantly-SWAG. these shoes are so sick. I saw 2 Chainz rocking them at the NBA Finals and had to get my hands on a pair. finally found a color way that spoke to me with the grey combo. These are legit running shoes, but stable enough for training and lifting. Overall super versatile because I wear them casually and get a lot of compliments. ... read more

Homeland Security makes big drug, gun bust
$40k in meth & assault rifles, ammo confiscated
Homeland Security Investigation agents netted a major drug and gun bust earlier this week.
Nearly 1,000 grams of meth were found during a traffic stop along I-40 on Monday. Combined, the near pure-grade bundles have a value of $40,000.
Agents also stormed the suspect's Albuquerque apartment where they found more than a dozen guns, including AK-47's, handguns and high-capacity magazine clips. Some of the guns are stolen.
"We didn't anticipate finding as many as we did, but we're always on the lookout for firearms," said assistant special agent in charge Kevin Abar.
Two suspects, Terry Connors and Thomas Jones, are in federal custody facing drugs charges. Gun charges could be coming shortly.
HSI continues to investigate.

"Paul McCartney performed on Saturday, October 15, 2005, at the Palace of Auburn Hills outside of Detroit, Michigan, the second of two sold-out show. Before the Friday show, Paul McCartney did an on-air interview with a local Detroit classic rock and roll station, WCSX while traveling to the sound check at the Palace. He talked about the Detroit Red Wings sticker on his Epiphone acoustic guitar. He said he was given the sticker by a fan at the Olympia stadium (the former home of the Detroit Red Wings) on the 1976 Wings Tour."
There's other sources that say it was slapped onto his guitar as early as 1964.

At the risk of going all Nat King Cole on you, it has truly been said many times, many ways on this site that we limit our coverage to the Delco contingent of the Central League. But it's still worth pointing out that statistically, the most prolific quarterbacks in the Central League hail from two of its three non-Delco representatives. And seeing as they've put up those numbers against 17 Delco opponents combined, it's worth at least a brief mention.
Harriton's Pat Moriarty and Conestoga's Joe Viviano are with little doubt two of the best – in my opinion, the two best – quarterbacks in the area. The seasons they are putting up, and as juniors to boot, are remarkable when viewed in context.
The offensive philosophy of football as a whole has shifted the way of the passing game at virtually every level. With the popularization and adaptation of schemes like the spread offense and the West Coast offense to all levels of the game, the ability to move the ball through the air has a renewed importance.
But – and I know there will be some out there who objects to this statement – prolific, even at times proficient, passing hasn't manifested itself in Delaware County, per se.
Check the numbers: Continue reading

Brave: Pixar movie box office hit. Brave will easily top the North American box office this weekend. How easily? Well, don't be too surprised if Brave ends up grossing more than the next half-dozen runners-up combined.
Voiced by Kelly Macdonald, Emma Thompson, Julie Walters, Craig Ferguson, Robbie Coltrane, Kevin McKidd, and Billy Connolly, among others, Brave is expected to collect $70 million by Sunday evening, after estimated Friday earnings of $25 million at 4,164 theaters (including 2,790 3D-equipped locations). Brave will thus mark Pixar's 13th first-place opening weekend at the U.S. and Canada box office. It'll also far surpass expectations, which had the girl-on-top movie scoring around $55 million over the weekend.
Pixar box office: Brave vs. Toy Story 3, Up, Finding Nemo
For comparison's sake: Pixar's Toy Story 3 opened $110.3 million at 4,028 locations in 2010; Up with $68.1 million at 3,766 locations in 2009 (about $72 million today); and Finding Nemo (not in 3D) with $70.25 million at 3,374 theaters in 2003 (about $92 million today).
The source for this weekend's estimates is Deadline.com, which adds that Brave has received an "A" CinemaScore from audiences. The tale of the rebellious princess Merida, who's both an expert archer and a dead ringer to Rachelle Lefevre's bloodthirsty vampire in The Twilight Saga: New Moon, Brave was received less enthusiastically by North American film reviewers. The animated feature has a passable 68 percent approval rating and 6.7/10 average among Rotten Tomatoes' top critics.
Brave likely critic-proof
Critics didn't matter when it came to either The Lorax (48 percent approval rating, top critics) or Madagascar 3: Europe's Most Wanted (58 percent approval rating, top critics). And what they think of Brave won't matter to parents / guardians and the like. What matters is the Pixar / Disney brand.
That's good for the studio. Considering the animated feature's exorbitant cost – a reported $185 million – Brave will need all the word of mouth it can get. It'll also need to perform extremely well overseas, something that shouldn't be a problem. And then, of course, there are all those ancillary revenues (DVD/Blu-ray, VOD, toys, and who knows what else Disney's marketing staff will come up with).
Brave was directed by Mark Andrews and Brenda Chapman, and "co-directed" by Steve Purcell. The screenplay is credited to Andrews, Purcell, Chapman, and Irene Mecchi.

Tim Scott has been a freshman U.S. senator for about 10 months, but he's been running a high-demand travel schedule, visiting at least 16 states — many "red" in their politics — that have provided fertile ground for cash toward next year's election.
Scott's calendar has taken him as far west as California speaking to conservative groups and fundraising for an election year in which, by most accounts, he remains one of the safest-seat politicians in South Carolina.
Scott's latest federal campaign filing shows him with more than $2.3 million cash on hand with no serious challenger announced.
And, unlike the more globally and national defense-oriented fellow Republican U.S. Sen. Lindsey Graham, Scott has yet to leave the country as a sitting senator, according to the travel list supplied by his office.
Many of Scott's trips have drawn scant media attention. In May he took part in an 80-person "private roundtable" put on by the Lincoln Club of Orange County, Calif., which bills itself as a "premier, nonprofit business organization whose members believe in free markets and pro-growth public policies." The group also operates a political action committee.
One of the club's leaders said Scott was highly sought after to speak on the Republican agenda in a state where Republicans have repeatedly faltered while trying to replace long-term Senate Democratic incumbents Barbara Boxer and Diane Feinstein.
"When you are a conservative in California it's kind of a lonely place to be," said Michael D. Capaldi, chairman emeritus of the group. Of Scott's appeal as a speaker, Capaldi added, "I'm an admirer and have been for a while."
The PAC's donation meant nearly $5,000 toward Scott's war chest.
Another trip taken to Wisconsin last month drew a little more media attention for its attempted outreach. Scott held a fundraiser in Milwaukee but also took part in a meeting designed to highlight the GOP's outreach toward minorities, sitting down for a roundtable discussion with Milwaukee-area young people at a church, according to media reports. The gathering was sponsored by the African-American caucus of the Wisconsin Republican Party.
Other states on Scott's visit list, as provided by his office, are Colorado, Florida, Georgia, Illinois, Louisiana, Mississippi, Missouri, New Mexico, New York, North Carolina, Pennsylvania, Tennessee, Texas and Wyoming.
The states by no means represent all of Scott's fundraising efforts; they are only the ones he traveled to outside of South Carolina and Washington, D.C., where breakfast, lunch and dinner cash events are popular for all members of Congress.
In 13 of the 16 states visited, Scott's itinerary included a fundraising activity. Some trips were done in relation to his committee assignments on the Health, Education, Labor and Pensions Committee, and the Small Business Committee.
Scott's press office refused requests last week for an interview with the senator about his travel habits, referring to what will be reported on his next quarterly Federal Election Commission filing in October.
Long-time Southern political observer Larry Sabato, director of the Center for Politics at the University of Virginia, said Scott's travel schedule probably is influenced by more than just the usual pressures on Senate incumbents to spend large chunks of their free time raising cash.
Instead, Sabato said the Republican Party is under increased pressure to show that it can attract voters other than its traditional white base.
"It's no secret that the national GOP badly needs to demonstrate its diversity in an increasingly non-white American electorate," Sabato said. "Right now, the Republicans have the only African-American U.S. senator. Why not tout him? Republicans across the nation appreciate having a minority senator who is clearly conservative."
Scott was appointed as South Carolina's junior U.S. senator last December by Gov. Nikki Haley to fill the unexpired term of Jim DeMint, who resigned to lead the Heritage Foundation, a conservative think-tank.
Because of South Carolina's election laws, Scott must seek re-election next year to fill the remainder of DeMint's term. Next year will be Scott's first statewide election campaign, after briefly serving as Charleston's 1st Congressional District U.S. representative. He also has shown an aggressive travel schedule around South Carolina, visiting every county.
So far, any talk of challengers, either in a GOP primary or from a Democrat next November, has been minimal. State Sen. John Scott, D-Columbia (no relation to Tim Scott), and Rick Wade, who worked with former Democratic Gov. Jim Hodges and in President Barack Obama's administration, are said to be mulling bids. Each is expected to decide soon on whether to run.
Meanwhile, much of Scott's summertime fundraising haul won't be disclosed until the current reporting quarter ends at the end of this month. Congress was out of Washington for most of August, leaving plenty of time for traveling, speeches and raising campaign cash.

YOUGSTOWN - Going into Friday night's game against the United States National Under-17 team, Kyle Connor had a chip on his shoulder.
The 15-year-old left winger tried out for the U-17 team but was let go, eventually settling down in Youngstown. On Friday night, though, he got his revenge, as Connor scored the first two goals in the Phantoms' 6-0 demolition of the U.S. U-17 team.
"It gave me some motivation, knowing that they let me go," Connor said. "I just came out and proved to them that I should be on the team."
Connor opened the scoring for the Phantoms (8-11-0) in the first period, recording his fourth goal of the season at the 12:56 mark. Connor received a pass from John Padulo by the side boards and skated in alone in front of the net, before beating U.S. goalie Edwin Minney.
Conner's second goal came with 16:33 remaining in the second period. After taking a couple of shots from his left wing position, the Shelby Township, Mich., native drifted toward the center of the offensive zone, where he received a pass and drilled the puck into the net.
"I think it's giving me some confidence, scoring a couple of goals here," Connor said. "Now, it's just a matter of the future in what I can do."
Connor's second goal marked the point at which the Phantoms started to pull away from U-17 team (5-9-1).
Later in the period, Youngstown scored two more goals, including Ryan Lowney's with 1:51 remaining in the period. Only 19 seconds into the power play, the defenseman's shot rocketed from near the blue line that found the back of the net.
The goals didn't stop in the third period, with the Phantoms adding two more in the final period. Youngstown kept pressing after the team's final goal with 11:52 remaining in the game, almost scoring a few more goals.
"The best thing about tonight was I don't think our game veered," coach Anthony Noreen said. "When it was 0-0 or 6-0, I think that we kind of stuck to our plan and to what we want to do."
Along with hosting the U.S. U-17 team, the Phantoms also unveiled their newest player.
Early Friday morning, Youngstown traded forward J.T. Steinglein to Sioux City for Cam Brown. The Natick, Mass., native found out at 3 a.m. and flew out to Chicago and then Pittsburgh, before arriving in Youngstown at 12:30 p.m.
Noreen said the 19-year-old forward played well, all things considered.
"It was weird," Brown said. "I didn't expect it to be honest I tried to take a nap, but I was a little excited and nervous to be here. So, I really didn't sleep that well."
Another aspect of the game that Noreen was excited about came from his defense.
Coming into the game allowing the second-most goals in the league (71), the Phantoms recorded their first shutout of the season. Goalie Sean Romeo stopped 23 shots, and the defenders kept most dangerous plays away from net.
"We pride ourselves on being a team that takes care of our own end first," Noreen said. "Bottom line, we just haven't been good enough defensively all year. Obviously, tonight was a good result."

Karo Parisyan hits Josh Burkman with a right hand at UFC 71. Photo property of the Ultimate Fighting Championship.
The Ultimate Fighting Championship officially announced earlier today that UFC Fight Night 13 will take place at the Broomfield Event Center in Broomfield, Colorado on Wednesday April 2nd.
Along with a lightweight main event of Kenny Florian vs. Joe Lauzon and a light heavyweight battle between Stephan Bonnar and Matt Hamill, the UFC has also announced that top welterweight contenders Karo Parisyan and Thiago Alves will clash in what is sure to be a fight with non-stop action throughout.
Parisyan is currently recovering from a broken left hand that he suffered in his recent win over Ryo Chonan at UFC 78: Validation in November. "The Heat" is still continuing his quest for a title shot since originally receiving one prior to UFC 56 where he was to challenge Matt Hughes for the UFC's welterweight belt.
Parisyan was forced to pull out of the fight after suffering an injury during training and then lost his number-one contender status when he dropped a decision to Diego Sanchez at UFC Fight Night 6. Since then Parisyan has knocked off three straight opponents and a win over Alves would continue to improve his chances of gaining another title shot.
After splitting his first four bouts in the UFC, Alves is now riding a four-fight winning streak that includes knockouts of Tony DeSouza and Kuniyoshi Hironaka. Alves put on a show in his last fight against veteran Chris Lytle. The two battled for two rounds until the fight was halted due to a cut Lytle had suffered. The fight was deemed the most exciting of the night by UFC President Dana White at the UFC 78 post-fight press conference.

CLEMSON — It's every defensive coach's worst nightmare.
Either it's fourth-and-forever, or there's no time left on the clock and the Hail Mary deep ball is in the air, and it's football's version of match point.
The cluster of defensive backs has one objective, and one objective only: nobody scores. Whether that means an interception, an incompletion, a tackle before the end zone … anything besides a touchdown or defensive penalty will suffice.
Auburn's Ricardo Louis caught the most improbable of game-winning touchdowns Saturday when two Georgia defensive backs tried to make a play on Nick Marshall's long arching throw down the field on fourth-and-18 with under 30 seconds remaining and the Tigers trailing by one point. The ball was tipped upwards, allowing Louis to make the easy catch and trot in for the go-ahead score in Auburn's 43-38 triumph.
Recently in NFL games, the Ravens and Packers each allowed Hail Mary tries to be converted when defensive backs didn't use proper fundamentals.
So how does Clemson teach its secondary to not turn a routine clinching play into a heart attack?
"There's nobody behind you, first of all. And let's knock the ball down. It's really not complicated. Just knock the ball down," Clemson head coach Dabo Swinney said. "That's why you teach that, because crazy things can happen."
Added defensive coordinator Brent Venables, bluntly: "Ball's in the air, man, just get it down."
For any Clemson defenders who might not have seen the Auburn play, Venables will see to it they do. He recalled the Tigers' victory Sept. 19 at North Carolina State, when the last play of the first half nearly resulted in a 56-yard passing touchdown for the Wolfpack.
"It's funny they came in, aww, (the Georgia players) should've knocked it down," Venables said. "We're like, yeah, that happened right before NC State at half, and I remember every one of you guys here trying to catch the ball, like there's nobody else."
Calm before the storm
The way the schedule shook out this year, No. 7 Clemson could face a lesser-stress matchup the game before South Carolina week.
The Citadel (5-6) will be the Tigers' tuneup, just as Coastal Carolina stands in No. 11 South Carolina's way on Saturday. Clemson hasn't lost to The Citadel since 1931 (a 15-game streak), while the Chanticleers and Gamecocks have never faced off.
"I think it's good for both South Carolina and Clemson. Maybe not necessarily to play an FCS, but maybe a mid-major or something like that," Swinney said. "Just hasn't been the case for us."
Clemson had to deal with its ACC finale immediately before South Carolina each of the last six years, ever since a pre-USC bye week in 2006. The last time Clemson didn't face an ACC opponent directly before the Gamecocks was a 1979 trip to Notre Dame.
"We've been battling to win the division, it seems like every year," Swinney said, "or maintain against a conference opponent."
South Carolina hasn't played its SEC finale seven days preceding the Clemson game since 2005. This is the fourth straight year the Gamecocks face a mid-major or FCS opponent the week before taking on the Tigers; from 2007-09, USC utilized a bye week to prep for its biggest rival.
"I definitely think it's preferable," Swinney said, "to have your conference play behind you and to be able to focus on finishing your non-conference the best possible way."
In preparation for other rivalry games Nov. 30, No. 2 Florida State plays Idaho and Florida has Georgia Southern to get ready for each other. Top-ranked Alabama hosts Chattanooga while No. 6 Auburn has a bye week before the Iron Bowl.
Drama king
So maybe quarterback Tajh Boyd was slightly embellishing the severity of his injury Thursday night at Georgia Tech, which had Clemson fans everywhere holding their breath as he laid on the Memorial Stadium turf.
"I probably was a little more dramatic than I needed to be," Boyd admitted Tuesday. "But yeah, your thoughts definitely flashed. In my mind, I was like, this can't be my last game I play here at Clemson. Fortunately, everything worked out."
Boyd has a bruised sternum, but avoided a broken collarbone.
Don't forget
While it's good that Clemson gets both its games facing a triple option offense back-to-back, the disadvantage is the Tigers must abruptly revert to traditional schemes when they do turn their attention to South Carolina the following week.
"It's not easy to manage, and I don't know whether we have the answers for that," Venables said. "We still do a decent amount of good-on-good. I would be surprised if we forgot everything we've learned up to this point."

VA brain center may get $3 millionAugust 24,2013
WHITE RIVER JUNCTION — U.S. Sen. Patrick Leahy says Vermont's Veterans Administration medical center could get $3 million to help study post-traumatic stress disorder and help rural health care providers deal with the problem.
Leahy said the National Center for Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder at the White River Junction hospital would help create the nation's first brain tissue repository dedicated to researching the physical impact of stress and trauma on the brain.
The other half of the funding would go toward initiating an outreach program for rural veterans with PTSD designed to support community health care providers with information and resources on diagnosis and treatment.
The funding is included in a military construction and veterans affairs budget bill that awaits passage by both houses of Congress.

Rushpool Hall
Rushpool Hall in Saltburn-by-the-Sea, North Yorks, a Victorian Spa resort, was constructed in 1863-4 from main seam ironstone taken from the Skelton Shaft mine, originally built as a Capital Messuage or Mansion House for John Bell, pioneer Ironmaster of Bell Brothers company, complete with stables, coach house and all other necessary offices, outbuildings and appurtenances. Rushpool Hall was described by Victorians as being "one of the most picturesque Country Mansions in North Yorkshire."
The architecture of Rushpool Hall is possibly by Cuthbert Brodrick (1821-1905) famed Victorian architect of Leeds Town Hall (1852-8), the Leeds Corn Exchange (1860-2) and Leeds Mechanics Institute (1860-5), now the Leeds City Museum. Cuthbert Brodrick was the subject of a 2007 BBC2 television programme…"The Case of the Disappearing Architect" by Jonathan Meades. Someone once remarked, "London has Christopher Wren, Barcelona has Antonio Gaudi, and Leeds.... well Leeds has Cuthbert Brodrick."
Rushpool Hall has for some years operated as a Weddings & Private Functions Venue. It is not only the "Dream Location" for Weddings but also Anniversaries, Christenings, Birthdays & all other Special Occasions.

Brain: Come, we have work to do.
Pinky: Oh, right, taking over the world, and all...
Brain: No, Pinky — tonight, we must save the world!
Pinky: Egad, Brain — save the world?!
Brain: YES! So it is available to take over tomorrow night.While villains love to Take Over the World or cause The End of the World as We Know It, the heroes are most likely motivated by the polar opposite, Saving The World. A fairly simple plot/motivation related to For Great Justice and what not, this trope is pretty broad and very common for many stories not focused on character interaction only. Most of the time, this is the result of The Call, or occasionally may be someone who Jumped at the Call and is just trying to be able to do this. Note, this doesn't always happen and it's entirely possible for the bad guy to win and the Earth to be destroyed. Sometimes, the villain will actually help with this goal, as what's the point in taking over a pile of rubble after all? (Especially if it's Not Me This Time.) Extremely common in some genres, such as High Fantasy, soft Sci-Fi, and The Epic. If the plot escalates to this, it's Save the World Climax.

In The Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask, for example, you're trying to prevent the destruction of the world by keeping the moon from crashing into the realm of Termina. Several of the games involve preventing Hyrule from falling under the control of Ganondorf — or, in the case of The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time, wresting it away from his control.
- Particularly galling in Illusion of Gaia, where your goal is generally exploring ancient ruins and collecting mystic statues.
- Deus Ex subverts this — while your inevitable goal is to prevent Big Bad from taking over the world, you can't actually save the world. It's in ruins and your choice is who to hand the reconstruction contract to an AI who wants to assimilate with you, a "compassionate conspiracy" leader that keeps his mentor in cryogenic almost-stasis in his basement, or a well-intentioned ally who thinks that the Big Bad's technology is more trouble than it's worth and wants to destroy it and send the world into anarchy. If any of that counts as "saved" is largely a matter of opinion (or, as the game would put it, choice).
- Deus Ex: Human Revolution goes one step further and allows you to pick any faction, even the until-then Bad Guys, and hand the world over to them. Or kill them all. According to canon, none of these choices prevent Deus Ex 1 from taking place.
- Being an epic sci-fi trilogy, Mass Effect uses the scaled-up version: Shepard and friends are out to save all sentient life in the galaxy.
- The original Halo trilogy is primarily about Master Chief, Cortana, and friends trying to prevent the galaxy-killing Halos from firing. The other games have been a mix of world-saving and more small-scale stories.
- Drakengard is notable here in that, while the first and fourth endings employ this, the second ending straight-up tells you that Failure Is the Only Option, the third ending is mildly ambiguous as the world still needs saving, and the fifth ending...well, it's hard to tell really.
- According to Word of God, the fifth ending caused the downfall of another world...
- And in that world, Nier ultimately destroys the last hope for humanity, driving them all to extinction within a generation.
- According to Word of God, the fifth ending caused the downfall of another world...
- In 'Banjo-Kazooie: Nuts & Bolts, one of the characters, Klungo, creates a horrendous 8-bit arcade platforming game (which he proclaims to be the best ever), titled Hero Klungo Sssavesss Teh World, in which you save the world by holding it over your head''.
- Jak and Daxter: Jak does this every game. Not that he ever gets a "thank you" lasting more than 30 seconds into the next game...
- Actually, he does get some respect in the third game, mostly from your allies and commoners, but it's easy to miss because literally everyone (yourself included) is preoccupied with the three-way war that's slowly reducing the city to rubble.
- Also, the fact that the upper class (reduced to consisting of one guy) still hates you in the third game is a plot point.
- Many Mario games mostly focus on rescuing Princess Peach, but a good handful of the RPG spinoffs have saving the world as the main plot. For example, in Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door Mario is tasked with finding the Crystal Stars before Grodus does, otherwise he will use the Crystal Stars to unlock an ancient power to conquer the world with.
- Despite appearances of a plotless pretty-looking Puzzle Game, World of Goo's Wham Episode sets you down this path when you have to journey down the Information Superhighway and discover you can thwart the enemy by flooding all their inboxes with spam, and not just any spam, all and any messages deleted in the history of the internet..
- Xenosaga did this in different quantities at the end of each game. Since the setting of the game is universal, the first game, which merely threatens the existence of a planet, can't really be a "Saving the World" scenario. The second game is rather unclear in whether or not the characters are saving the world or just fighting some bad guys. The 3rd game is phenomenally epic in scale.
- One of the complaints against the plot of Neverwinter Nights 2 is that you aren't saving the world, and the titular city isn't attacked in the Bad Ending, because Status Quo Is God in the Forgotten Realms.
- Frequently the case in Final Fantasy games. The trope is played straight in I - V, VII, and VIII and invoked in VI, IX and XIII by the villains and in X by the heroes.
- XII has the team of heroes trying to save the kingdom/city-state from becoming the battleground between two rival empires. Not the same scale, but played for just as much drama.
- Crono from Chrono Trigger wants nothing more than to go to the Millennial Fair, but ends up roped into a time traveling quest to save his planet from annihilation at the hands of an incomprehensible Eldritch Abomination.
- Skies of Arcadia spends most of its time as a charming adventure revolving around exploration and piracy... until the final ten hours or so, when The Very Definitely Final Dungeon is raised from the depths of the planet, a devastating superweapon is unleashed, a country is leveled, and Heroic Sacrifices abound.
- Shadow Hearts: Covenant shows why it's important to save the Save The World element for last. Being told that the end boss is going to destroy the world loses a lot of kick when you've already saved the world twice; even once before the halfway point of the game.
- The Elder Scrolls games have actually managed to avoid this trope for a long time. The closest they've come is the last two games, ignoring the fact that Mehrunes Dagon's forces don't understand the concept of invasion too well, and Dagoth Ur was in no rush to do anything (his racist religion powered by the heart of god might not have even done anything in another thousand years ...).
- Dagoth Ur was preparing to seize control of Morrowind from the Tribunal and the Empire. Although he operated on a long time-scale, he was getting his forces into position for the all-out conflict. This makes Morrowind's objective saving a small part of the world. Oblivion, however, plays this trope straight, with the entire world of Nirn being threatened by the encroachment of Mehrunes Dagon's plane of Oblivion.
- Played straight in Skyrim. Alduin The World-Eater's purpose is to destroy Mundus, and the Dragonborn is destined to defeat him.
- Every Wild ARMs game.
- Star Ocean. All of them. Star Ocean: Till the End of Time and Star Ocean: The Last Hope replace "world" with "universe".
- Most of the Pokémon films. And in the Diamond, Pearl, and Platnium games, replace "the world" with "all existence".
- All of the games have this as a major subplot integrated with the main plot of To Be a Master since Gen III, barring the remakes of Gen I and Gen II. It started with May and Brendan in Ruby, Sapphire, and Emerald, and proceeded to escalate from there, up to the above situation.
- One of the (many) notable aspects of Planescape: Torment was that the plot had nothing to do with saving anything, be it city, world, plane etc. Rather, your main quest involved an amnesiac immortal trying to figure out who he is, who took his mortality, and eventually die.
- On one occasion you do have to save a town that had literally gone straight to hell. Or, more strictly speaking, it restores itself to its rightful place once you defeat the local villain.
- Similarly, Neverwinter Nights 2: Mask of The Betrayer. While there is a (in the grand scheme, rather small) danger to the world involved if you fail, but the majority of your motivation is that solving the spirit eater curse prevents you from dying, the fact that it no longer terrorizes the world at large is only casually mentioned. This is due to many shared developers.
- Averted by the real evil ending which has the player devouring the curse thus becoming the curse itself, getting him/herself expelled from the City of the Dead, then cleansed countless githyanki cities by devouring the souls of all the adults and then delivering their children to their mortal enemies, the brain-sucking, mind-raping mind flayers aka Illithids. If that's not enough, he/she devours the spirits/souls inhabiting the land where he/she once helped (or screwed depending on your playing preference), turning it into a wasteland filled with the walking dead. As if that is still not enough, the player then travels to the planes of existence where the souls of his/her dead former treacherous companions are now resting... and eats them. Whoa. Understandably, the gods get so pissed off, they assembled a humongous army to kill the player and guess what? He/she eats some of the gods too!
- Ironically Averted in The World Ends with You. The world never even comes close to being destroyed. The plot of the game is about getting Back from the Dead. A more appropriate title would have been A Small District of Tokyo Ends With You.
- Except for the fact that the title refers to the fact that Neku needs to expand his horizons and stop being a gloomy loner
- Dragon Age: Origins plays with this trope. While technically you are saving the world by stopping the Blight (i.e. a vast horde of evil monsters led by a corrupted Dragon-God), the game's codex makes it quite clear that failure on your part will not actually lead to the end of the world. Blights reoccur every few centuries in Thedas, so people who dedicate their lives to stopping them have created a military organization, the Grey Wardens, just for that purpose. If you do not succeed, then one of the other members of your organization, which is thousands strong, would finish it in your place. By stopping the Blight, all you really do is keep the country that you live in from being destroyed before the other Wardens could act. Your victory simply means that the threat ended before the rest of the world noticed the problem.
- Dragon Age II averts this: Templars and mages will end up fighting one another, but how that comes about is up to Hawke.
- Persona 3's Wake Up, Go to School, Save the World plot really only involves saving random people in your city, but the heroes act as if they've saved the world. Then it turns out that the entire world really is at stake, the heroes' lives included, and they freak out.
- One of the driving plot points for Parasite Eve and Parasite Eve 2. The other point is trying to figure out why a bunch of animals are mutating and attacking people.
- In the RPG parts of Half-Minute Hero, saving the world is so mundane task that while the hero is busy killing the boss to prevent it from catching world destruction spell, he will do other things like put out forest fires in the meantime.
- The Shin Megami Tensei games twist this around: the world is already destroyed, and you get to "save" it by choosing how the pieces are put back together.
- Ultima IV averts this entirely, as there is no threat to the world whatsoever. Ultima VIII kind of subverts it, as you wind up doing a great deal of damage to one world in order to have the opportunity to try to save another. The rest of the main Ultimas play this trope to varying degrees of straight.
- In Black Sigil, your ultimate goal is prevent the world from being destroyed by The Forbidden.
- The entire plot of the Mass Effect franchise is stopping the Reapers from wiping out every spacefaring species in the galaxy, as they have done every 50,000 years for, according to the "Leviathan" DLC for Mass Effect 3, at least ten billion years.
- The plots of three of the first four X-Universe games revolved around stopping two separate Alien Invasions from destroying the Community of Planets. X: Beyond the Frontier saw fish-out-of-water Major Kyle William Brennan join up with the Argon Federation to stop a Xenon planet-killer. X2: The Threat had his son Julian Gardna working to destroy a Kha'ak planet-killer before it could be used a second time. X3: Reunion continued this storyline with Gardna working to stop the Kha'ak warfleet itself.
- The ultimate goal in the pacifist run of Undertale is saving the world, both the underground and the surface world, from Asriel. Even the final battle theme is called SAVE The World!
- Off-White: Hugin said Munin's name after the former got blasted by a spell Sköll cast.
- Bar'd: Averted and lampshaded.
Shelia: Vaaas, what have I told you about saving the world?Vas: (sigh) "I am not to save the world or otherwise prevent its destruction during work hours."Shelia: Good boy.
- Schlock Mercenary: Mad Scientist Kevyn Andreyasn wants to Save The Galaxy, but the UNS is blocking.
Western Animation
- Gadget Boy & Heather: Gadget Boy, from the evil villainess Spydra.
- The Legend of Korra: A recurring plot for the titular Avatar each arc. Korra had to save her world from non-bending terrorists, an Eldritch Abomination, and a cabal that seeks to eliminate the world's governments.
- Ben 10: Omniverse: A recurring plot.
- The earlier Ben 10 series had this as a recurring theme (on several occasions, extending to the entire universe), but Omniverse makes it almost Once an Episode and it seems like The World Is Always Doomed despite this being the Lighter and Softer series.
- The Powerpuff Girls: One of its advertisement slogan is Saving the world before bedtime!
- In Futurama, Fry and the rest of the Planet Express crew have saved the world (and sometimes the universe) more times then they can count.
- Kim Possible: Stated right at the beginning of the Bragging Theme Tune: "I'm your basic average girl, and I'm here to save the world"

Shaping the future with Engineering and Technology
Ann Daniels
Director of Technical Services
APWA Kansas City Office
Every organization needs a "techie" group and APWA has a good one in the form of the Engineering and Technology Committee. Their mission statement is four-fold:
Currently under discussion and review is developing a position statement regarding the American Society of Civil Engineers (ASCE) Policy Statement 465, which supports the concept of the master's degree as a prerequisite for the practice of civil engineering at the professional level. Comments will be solicited from members prior to drafting a statement.
The committee recently proposed a position statement regarding ADA access in the public right-of-way, which is under review by the Government Affairs Committee.
Continuing the relationship with the American Council of Engineering Companies (ACEC) in an effort to provide information to the membership relating to value-based delivery systems and qualifications-based selection of consultants (QBS) is another responsibility of the committee.
Realizing that smaller public works departments often have difficulty securing the level of technology they need to upgrade their operations, committee members are committed to working with the APWA Rural and Small Communities Forum to help assure the availability of current technology to that sector of our membership.
Other goals for the coming year include expanding the number of members subscribed to one or more InfoNOW Communities; monitoring the efforts of the Engineers Joint Contract Documents Committee (EJCDC) as an observer; participating in the Smart Growth and Homeland Security Task Forces as appropriate; providing a liaison to the committee working toward a National CAD Standard and developing the necessary background to consider a position/policy statement; and focusing on emerging engineering and technology issues relevant to both the U.S. and Canada as a means of drawing upon the respective experiences of APWA and CPWA.
Members of this year's committee include: Kurt Corey, Chair, Eugene, OR; John German, At-Large Director; and Members Paul Cooley, Encinitas, CA; Maureen McCauley, Goderich, Ontario; Alan Garcia, Pompano Beach, FL; Neil Grigg, Fort Collins, CO; and Robert Wagner, Yuma, AZ. APWA Staff Liaison is Carol Estes.

Special Permits Allow The Sale Of Samples
Published: 02/06/2007
The Ohio Revised Code prohibits any permit holder from giving away any alcoholic beverages in connection with the permit holder's business. Consequently, if a patron wants to sample a product prior to buying a bottle or case of an alcoholic beverage, the law prohibits a permit holder from furnishing free samples. However, the law does permit, if specific conditions are met, the sale of such samples.

Keishi Pearl Earrings
These earrings are made with a number of keishi cornflake pearls. This particular pair uses peacock colored pearls, each of which has a 2mm sterling silver bead in it. In the center of the pearls is one larger 4mm sterling silver bead. The overall look is that of a lovely, multi colored flower with a silver center.
The pearls are hand wired onto an Argentium sterling silver frame covered in silver Italian wire mesh. The finished frame is depended from Argentium sterling silver ear wires.
I make these earrings with other colors of keishi pearls, depending on which colors I have in stock. The beads used in the center of the pearls depend on the color of the keishis I use. For instance, I usually use small natural rubies in white or cream keishis.
I also make this style of earring in 14k gold filled wire.
Dimensions: From 3/4 to 1 1/2 inch wide. The earrings dangle 1 1/2 to 2 1/2 inches below the top of the ear wire.

STATE COLLEGE – There can be no disputing Joe Paterno's eye for football talent over the years.
How well Penn State's head coach defines the word "youth" is up for debate.
Everyone in the Penn State football program was searching for answers and looking to apply labels to its 7-5 regular season after No. 11 Michigan State pushed around the Nittany Lions in a 28-22 Big Ten Senior Day loss Saturday afternoon in front of 102,649 at Beaver Stadium. At least give the hosts credit for dressing up the losing margin some with an inspired final six minutes.
Mark Dantonio's Spartans ran the ball better (163 yards to 84 for the Lions), made fewer mistakes (24 penalty yards to 67) and had a much better concept of pass coverage (nine pass breakups and one interception compared to zero of each for the Blue and White).
The result was historic. MSU (11-1, 7-1) earned a share of the Big Ten title with Wisconsin and Ohio State and also notched its first conference win in State College in nine career tries. And here's three more key words -- LAND GRANT TROPHY!
For Paterno and his Lions, the end result had every one a bit defensive – and in denial.
PSU's 83-year-old Paterno, who indicated earlier in the week that he will be back in 2011, said afterward his preseason forecast for his troops was 9-3. He also has not been shy about calling this team one of his youngest.
Paterno returned to that theme yet again Saturday, saying, "I thought the young kids had some chances to be in the tough games.''
For the record, 19 of Penn State's starters on offense and defense in this game were either seniors or fourth-year juniors. Michigan State (you know, that one loss team) started 15 seniors and fourth-year juniors on offense and defense.
It's very simple. The better team, by a large margin, won. And Paterno's squad failed all four major tests this season – PSU was outscored a combined 114-42 by Alabama, Iowa, Ohio State and the Spartans. Throw in the 20-point home loss to Illinois (33-13), the result that few saw coming, and you have a 2010 regular season that everyone in the program is eager to run from.
Penn State is bowl-bound with two Jan. 1 options at the top of the list – the Gator Bowl or the Outback Bowl.
Lions quarterback Matt McGloin said he wanted to "just focus on that and forget about the season.''
"We beat ourselves. There's no reason we should have lost that game,'' said PSU senior tailback Evan Royster, who carried 14 times for 85 yards and a touchdown./p
McGloin struggled in the wind and cold for three quarters but never stopped competing. With PSU down 21-10 to start the fourth (and 28-10 midway through), McGloin teamed with wideouts Justin Brown (six catches,, 106 yards) and Derek Moye (5-65, touchdown) to make the Spartans sweat just a little.
After completing just 12 of 25 throws for 139 yards in the first 45 minutes, McGloin went 11-for-18 for 173 yards and two TD passes in the final 15.
He did throw an end-zone interception with a little over a minute left and the Lions trailing 28-16 but Moye bailed him out on a hustle play that caused MSU defensive back Trenton Robinson to fumble at the Spartans' 4.
Robinson could have fell down in his end zone to end the suspense but Moye was ready when he attempted the return. He pounced on the fumble he caused and caught a 4-yard TD pass from Moye on the next play to make it 28-22 with 56 seconds left.
There was a botched extra-point try after that, and then came the too-short onside kick attempt by Wagner that MSU tight end Brian Linthicum recovered to trigger the Spartans' championship celebration.
"They were [10-1] and we played right with them,'' Royster said. "It is tough finishing with a 7-5 season. It hurts, but it just shows that we are close.''
It wasn't youth that slowed down Penn State this season. If anything, it was an inordinate amount of injuries.
Mike Mauti, the team's best linebacker, was relegated to two meaningless series in the second half due to a shoulder injury suffered against Ohio State.
PSU has been a short a body or two at defensive end since the Illinois loss at midseason and the secondary scrambled to replace free safety Nick Sukay, also injured against the Fighting Illini.
And Paterno's offense certainly would have looked different with right tackle Lou Eliades, wideout Curtis Drake and tight end Andrew Szczerba in the lineup. Drake and Szczerba didn't play a down and Eliades went down in September.
Hey, those are the breaks. The next guy has to step up. That's what happened with the Spartans.
Who knew MSU's punishing ground game would be led by a sophomore named Edwin Baker?
The 1,000-yard rusher gouged PSU's front for 118 yards on 28 carries, setting the tone for the game on the Spartans' first offensive play – a 16-yard rumble through the middle.
MSU turned that initial possession into a 7-0 lead (nine plays, 71 yards), with the 5-9, 208-pounder bowling over Lions free safety Malcolm Willis while finalizing his 7-yard TD run. A 15-yard roughing-the-passer flag on PSU defensive tackle Devon Still was a critical factor in the march.
"It was exactly what we thought it would be – smash-mouth [football],'' PSU senior nose tackle Ollie Ogbu said.
"We just have to get off blocks and make plays. At times, we did and at times, we didn't. And it cost us big gains.''
Said Bradley: "We just gotta get stout against the run and it all starts up front.''
MSU quarterback Kirk Cousins, who was playing through injuries to an ankle and (non-throwing) shoulder, was rarely touched in completing 17 of 22 passes for 152 yards and two touchdowns – tosses of 8 and 24 yards to wideout B.J. Cunningham. Backup quarterback Keith Nichol added the Spartans' final score, a 3-yard throw to tight end Charlie Gantt with 8:51 left that made it 28-10.
"I think we beat ourselves today,'' said PSU outside linebacker Nate Stupar, who was credited with 10 tackles and forced a fumble.
"There were a lot of opportunities and a lot of penalties that we had on ourselves, third-down stops where we had them and then let them keep driving.''
Stupar is right. PSU was in position to make plays all game. The Lions didn't.
For the first 46 minutes, the Spartans made all the plays to build an 11-point lead. PSU finally found some rhythm on offense, but it was too late.
"I didn't really think it was out of reach, you know?,'' said Moye, who was the Lions' best player during their fourth-quarter comeback.
"If we could have gotten an onside kick, we would have [scored] again.''
"They are a good, solid football team,'' Paterno said of the champion Spartans, "and I don't want to take anything from the Penn State football team because I think the kids hung in there all year.''
He added: "You have seen good football teams most of the year.''
Yep. All of them in opposing colors.

The Associated Press
WACO - Cyrus Gray ran for 137 yards and scored three of his career-high four touchdowns in the second half as No. 23 Texas A&M rallied from a 16-point first-half deficit for a 42-30 victory against Baylor on Saturday night.
A&M won its fourth straight and seventh of the season, surpassing last year's six-win finish.
The Aggies (7-3, 4-2 Big 12) trailed 30-21 at halftime before Gray scored on runs of 13 and 10 yards in the third quarter to give A&M its first lead at 35-30.
Baylor (7-4, 4-3) led 30-14 midway through the second quarter after Jay Finley's third touchdown.
Gray's fourth score came on a 1-yard run with about six minutes remaining. It was set up when Baylor turned the ball over on downs. His first score came in the second quarter.
The Bears were foiled by problems in the kicking game. Aaron Jones missed field-goal attempts from 27 and 39 yards in the second half, had a third one blocked just before halftime and missed an extra point.
It was Gray's fourth consecutive 100-yard game and his most touchdown since scoring three against Texas Tech last season.
Robert Griffin had 212 yards passing and ran for 92 yards and a touchdown. His 3,071 yards passing this season make him the first Baylor player to pass for 3,000 yards.
