FAYETTEVILLE, Tenn. -- One way to learn the history of Fayetteville, Tenn., founded in 1809, is to read books. Another is to walk into the Lowe Home, built before 1816 as a tavern two blocks north of the Fayetteville Square.
"There are good spirits in our house," said current Helen Lowe, formerly of Huntsville, who moved into the home with her husband, Homer Lowe, and teenagers in 1989.
The home, which is the oldest home standing within the city limits, is one of five homes featured on this year's Alpha Kappa Home Tour Nov. 13.
The home tour is timed to coincide with the annual Host of Christmas Past festival, which will fill the Fayetteville Square, Museum area and High School with activities for the family Nov. 11 and 12.
The Lowe home reflects the currents of change that have swept over the little city in the last 200 years.
Originally a two-room tavern, the building has gone through times of relative neglect, but also lavish improvement. The post-Civil War owner added a square tower and arched Palladian windows to give it an Italian villa appearance. The owner in the early 1900s' slump made the basement into a couple of apartments. The 1920s' boom-time owner added ornate interior Corinthian columns, stucco over the exterior brick walls and a sun porch that looks like an idyllic place to read a book.
An owner during World War II re-opened the basement apartments. Owners in the 1980s boom times imported chandeliers and wallpaper from Paris to decorate the spacious front rooms.
In the late 1980s, when Helen Lowe walked into the house with a Realtor, she had already told her husband, Homer Lowe, that she did not intend to move their children from Huntsville just because he had moved his company, Dynamic Design, to the county.
In Huntsville, after all, they had friends from years of involvement in the community and the Huntsville Ballet. Helen was a beloved elementary teacher. But as she walked into the house, Helen remembered what a college roommate, who still lives there had told her once: "The most wonderful place in the whole wide world is Fayetteville."
The home tour also includes perhaps the oldest home in the county, the Conger family's 1808 log cabin on a farm still operated by the sixth generation to live among the rolling hills of Mimosa, a settlement just north of Fayetteville.
The log cabin and next-door Beech Lawn brick home will be open for the tour, as will a 1920s farmhouse, 5,600-square foot 1998 mansion and Grandview, a majestically porched two-story home built in 1909.
Sale of the tour's tickets benefits the college scholarship fund of Alpha Kappa, one of Fayetteville's oldest women's reading and civic clubs.

Senate GOP leader Randy Richardville, the former baseball player, is as competitive as they get. And he's on a mission to do what others have failed to do: Make Gov. Rick Snyder swear.
"I've come close," Rando advises as he relishes the thought of being the first.
Unfortunately the Tea Party may beat him to it.
If this governor swore, which he does not, he'd be tempted to cuss up a blue streak over the Tea Party. They and he disagree on everything from the bridge to Canada, senior citizen pension tax, new revenue for the roads, more recently the Medicaid expansion stuff ...and now this:
That element of the GOP is quietly discussing a DBC movement: Dump Brian Calley, the lieutenant governor.
Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. It's far-fetched, but it's real.
Recall in 2010, candidate Rick Snyder and his minions confidently waltzed into the GOP nominating convention with his hand-picked running mate and former lawmaker Brian Calley. They hoped for a brisk walk through the park en route to nominating him for the second spot on the ticket. It turned into a near mugging instead as the Tea Party wanted somebody else. And it appears not much has changed since then.
Calley dodged the bullet, but now the "establishment" in the party is thinking about re-jiggering the party rules to offer some "protection" for Mr. Calley just in case they come at him again.
The party leaders met recently and the governor, speaking in Snyder-code, suggests they are talking about "continuing to improve the (nominating) process" which coincidently includes "how the lieutenant governor is nominated."
Notice he didn't confirm that they are trying to inoculate Calley from the Tea Party, but you can read between the lines as well as the next guy.
A veteran party person was asked if this was going on. "Yes," he admitted, citing "more than one source" and sources this person "absolutely trusted."
Yet another insider disagrees: "No one is gaming the system for Calley."
Obviously they can't both be right so the net was cast to find the truth.
"There is a movement afoot, but no solid names as yet," came back one response.
And then somebody talked on camera.
Tea Partier Joan Fabiano, one of the signers of a letter revealing that she and other activists would remain neutral in the Snyder campaign, came forth.
Question: Do you want Mr. Calley off the ticket?
Answer: I think there could be a better option.
Question: Have there been discussions about removing Mr. Calley from the ticket?
Answer: There's been discussions about a conservative option."
Question: Including removing him from the ticket?
Laughter and then answer: Well you could say that…."
To be sure, it's one thing to chat about bouncing the gov's guy from the ticket, it's quite another actually do it. But at this read, it's under consideration.
Mr. Governor was brought into the loop on the story and he confesses this is all news to him as he segues into a chorus of Stand By Your Man.
"Brian Calley is an outstanding lieutenant governor," the song begins. "He's done a tremendous job for the state and he's been a great partner in reinventing Michigan."
Translated: If the Tea Party wants to rumble, the governor appears ready to battle for Mr. Calley, although no one is predicting a floor fight just yet.
There will be plenty of time for that later on when the cussing really begins in earnest. And if it gets really ugly, even the Nerd might join in. Sorry Randy.

Chickpea and Spinach Tapas or SaladMarch 10, 2008 By: almostgotit Category: Uncategorized, food, recipes
Makes 4-6 servings; 10 minutes to prepare.
- 10-12 ounce bag fresh spinach leaves, rinsed
- 19-ounce can (2 cups) chickpeas (also called garbanzo beans), drained and rinsed
- 1 red bell pepper
- 1 tablespoon snipped fresh chives
- 1-2 lemons, juiced (or 3-5 Tablespoons)
- 1/3 cup extra virgin olive oil
- freshly ground black pepper, to taste
- 1 large clove garlic, minced
- 1 teaspoon curry powder
Put spinach in a saucepan with no additonal water (save that left on leaves from rinsing); stir and cook on low just until wilted. OR, if bag gives steam-in-bag directions, put bag in microwave (do not open or even pierce!) and steam for about 3 minutes, just until wilted.
Drain spinach in collander, pressing to get rid of as much water as possible. Chop both spinach and red bell pepper finely and put in bowl. A food processor makes this an even faster job. Add remaining ingredients, stir, and serve immediately or chill. May be made several days in advance, as it keeps well.
Serve as is, or stuffed in pita bread. Goes well served with grapes. Goes particularly well served with Cosmopolitans.
Recipe adapted from one attributed to Padma Lakshmi.

Regional levee officials and New Orleans' emergency manager will brief New Orleans City Council members this afternoon on the record high water levels in the Mississippi River and the potential for flooding in the city.
Speakers at the 2 p.m. meeting in the City Council chamber are slated to include Tim Doody, president of the Southeast Louisiana Flood Protection East; Susan Maclay, president and Southeast Louisiana Flood Protection West; and Collins Simoneaux, the city's emergency manager.
City Hall is located at 1300 Perdido St.
If the Morganza Floodway north of Baton Rouge is not opened to funnel water from the river into the Atchafalaya River basin, the additional water could cause levees to fail along the river from Morganza to Plaquemines Parish, including all of the New Orleans area, resulting in as much as 25 feet of floodwater, according to a map provided to state officials Tuesday by the Army Corps of Engineers.
Corps Maj. Gen. Michael Walsh, president of the Mississippi River Commission and commander of all corps districts along the river, has strongly hinted that he will approve opening the Morganza Floodway sometime between Friday and Tuesday.
Though the rate of the river's flow hasn't yet reached the trigger point for opening the spillway, river levels in New Orleans already have risen noticeably, with sections of the batture inundated and water lapping at the concrete armor that lines the river side of the levees.
The corps on Monday began opening the bays of the Bonne Carre Spillway about 25 miles upriver from the city to allow river way to flow into Lake Pontchartrain.
Among city agencies preparing for the worst, the New Orleans Public Belt Railroad, which operates 25 miles of track that snakes along the river and through the Port of New Orleans, is poised to move its cars, locomotives and other equipment inside existing floodwalls "at a moment's notice," General Manager John Morrow said Wednesday.
The process takes eight to 10 hours, he said.
Meanwhile, Sewerage & Water Board officials have asked the Coast Guard to make sure ships and barges steer clear of water intake pumps in the river near the Jefferson Parish line since rising water has submerged barriers designed to keep traffic away from the critical equipment, spokesman Robert Jackson said.
The same goes for sewer outflow infrastructure near the St. Bernard line, he said.

CAMP HILL – Every picture tells a story.
On April 17, art lovers gathered at Camp Hill's Gallery 2318 to hear award winning artist Jason Tako talk about his work during the gallery's Evening with Jason Tako event.
Throughout the evening, Tako, 40, of Dover, casually spoke with the gallery's guests about his work, art, his inspiration and the stories behind his paintings. The artist, who usually paints with a palette of primary colors and white, also demonstrated his technique.
Tako has participated in numerous exhibitions in the United States and has been a favorite of the Plein Air Camp Hill Competition and Arts Festival's judges and spectators alike.
The artist won first place in the Camp Hill event's quick draw competition and the people's choice award in 2012, and was the 2011 Plein Air Camp Hill first place winner, among other awards.
Tako is expected to participate in Plein Air Camp Hill this year, which will run May 17-19 at Market Street and Twenty-fourth Street in Camp Hill.
The event will include artists painting en plein air – outdoors – quick draws for adults and children, music, demonstrations, workshops, lectures, artist discussions and more. A photography competition and quick shoot event for photographers have been added to this year's schedule.
Gallery 2318, which hosted the evening with Tako, has also recently exhibited the work of the Seven Lively Artists and will display the paintings of the Camp Hill Plein Air juried competition artists for exhibition and sale beginning May 17.
More information about Jason Tako can be found on the artist's web site at www.jasontako.com.

Session 26 - X-ray Emission Flow, Neutron Stars & White Dwarfs.
Oral session, Monday, January 15
Salon del Rey South, Hilton
Detection of hard x-ray emission from neutron star systems places constraints on models of hard X-ray emission from compact objects developed for black hole binaries. We have detected significant hard X-ray flux in the light curve of the X-ray burster 4U0614+091 in the 20-100 keV band using the BATSE instrument on CGRO. We discuss the Earth occultation data analysis used in localizing the multiple events observed in the 1600 day light curve. Our search is part of a larger monitoring campaign with BATSE and XTE motivated by the recent discovery of hard X-ray emission from X-ray bursters with SIGMA. We discuss our results in terms of current understanding of hard x-ray emission processes.
This work was supported in part by NASA Grant NAG 5-2235.

Hodags' Jacobson Resigns as Girls Hoops Coach
Submitted: 04/02/2013
Story By Marisa Silvas
- The Rhinelander girls basketball team is looking for a new head coach for the second year in a row. Mark Jacobson has turned in his resignation.
Jacobson went (5-18) in his only year as head coach. The Hodags struggled at the beginning of the year losing 15 of their first 16 games. But they finished the season on a strong note, even winning a playoff game.
Jacobson took over after Anita Mattek resigned in June 2012. Mattek had coached the Hodags for three seasons. Mark plans to continue to help the girls program, but in a lesser capacity. Rhinelander Athletic Director Charlie LaHam is grateful for the time Jacobson's efforts.

Cupcakes for a cause at St. Germain Pharmacy
Submitted: 10/19/2016
Play Video
- Helping patients feel better comes first for one pharmacist in St. Germain, but every Wednesday in October these patients are returning the favor by buying her cupcakes for a cause.
People know to head to pharmacist Jennifer Hansen when they're sick; however, many of them also know they can walk out of St. Germain Pharmacy with one of her cupcakes for Down Syndrome Awareness month.
This is the fourth year Jennifer is baking the cupcakes for her sons' Lakeland Area Special Olympics team.
One of her sons has Down Syndrome and the other has Autism.
"It's not about disabilities or what they can't do. It is shining and highlighting what they can do and all the many things they can do," said Hansen.
Donations from the cupcakes allowed her kids and fellow teammates to get new uniforms and head to different tournaments around the state.
Just as much as she knows patients by name, they know about her sons and always ask about them.
Jennifer says the generosity of the Northwoods community is overwhelming.
Many of her customers ask about the cupcakes months in advance to make sure they can donate.
"I'll still do them as long as my oven keeps working and nothing else bad happens," said Hansen.
Jennifer's boys and their teammates will be heading to Merrill for a bowling tournament this weekend.
Cupcake sales go through the end of October.
Jennifer also has cupcakes in exchange for donations in April for Autism Awareness Month.

Demmer Library supporters hosted a phone bank Wednesday night
Submitted: 10/19/2016
Play Video
- With the presidential election right around the corner, voters will be changing history for the United States.
For voters in the town of Three Lakes, they'll also be voting for a library, town office and possibly even a police department reconstruction plan. Wednesday evening, supporters of the Demmer Library came together to inform others in the community about that vote.
Members of the Three Lakes community that are in favor of expanding the Demmer Library joined forces to call every single registered voter in the area.
"Just informing people about the referendum and for others I've found a lot of support. There are a lot of 'yes' votes out there and we're definitely grateful for that," said supporter Colette Mahlerwein.
For Laura Wipperman, her vote has already been decided.
"I love the idea of a campus kind of concept where people could get from one building to the other easily and share some spaces because I believe that's going to save us money in the long run," said Wipperman.
When voters see their ballots in now less than three weeks, they will also be asked how they feel about the proposed expansion project with the library, town offices and police department.
"I feel very passionate about not only keeping the library in Three Lakes but allowing it to thrive," said Wipperman.
The first question voters will see will be, "Do you support up to nine hundred thousand ($900,000) additional taxpayer dollars being placed on the levy for the Library expansion?"
"A 'yes' vote on question one would have an estimated annual impact of $7/year per $100,000 worth of value on your home for 20 years," said Mahlerwein.
The second question voters will see will be, "Do you support up to 1.8 million additional taxpayer dollars being placed on the levy to replace the existing structure for the Town Office, Police Department and Community Building with a new smaller structure?"
"A 'yes' vote on question two would have an $11 a year increase on your home valued at $100,000 for the next 20 years," said Mahlerwein.
After they crunched the numbers, Mahlerwein's family didn't have to go far to find the money.
"I can find that in spare change at my house. My girls and I actually did a little challenge to see if we could find that in spare change and we did," said Mahlerwein.
For those making phone calls on Wednesday night, their main goal was to educate the voters so that they are prepared to make a decision.
"I hope that it doesn't come as a surprise to anyone. I hope that the timing works out well because a presidential election brings out voters and that it will inspire people to vote and that they'll vote 'yes'," said Mahlerwein.
If you still have questions on the proposed plans, please call the Demmer Library at 715-546-3391.

- The Northwoods saw more than four inches of rain from the big storm Monday night. All that rain left at least three Oneida County roads washed out, some completely impassable.
You can't get through Tenderfoot Road east of Rhinelander right now. There's about a roughly 15 foot deep crater and 10 foot gap in the road.

Swiftech is introducing quite a host of new products during CES this year, but the highlight of the show is the new H220X all in one CPU cooling kit.
Based on the company's patent pending MCR drive radiator technology which integrates the pump into the radiator,
the H220X is the most compact 2x120mm radiator lengthwise on the market. It features Swiftech PWM controlled high power pump, that can drive multiple devices in the loop; the demo machine presented at CES is cooling an Intel 3770 CPU, Asus Maximus V formula chipset and an Nvidia GTX780 graphics card in near silent operations. The radiator features an led backlit reservoir so that users can easily see the coolant level, and the all new Apogee XL waterblock, also with LED backlighting. The system is shipped already pre-filled so casual users don't have to deal with coolant, but it can also be emptied and refilled at will thanks to the integrated reservoir. All fittings are also g1/4 compatible, so enthusiast users can essentially upgrade their kit to their own favorite tubing up to 3/4" in outer diameter. The pump connectors are reliable SATA TYPE. Delivery is expected in march at an MSRP of $149.95.
Two more prototypes of the radiator are also presented, one in a single 140mm form factor, and a second in a 2 x 140mm form factor. ETA is estimated for Q2 of 2014.
Second in the lineup is swiftech's new MCP50X pump: an ultra high pressure PWM controlled mini pump with superior pressure characteristics than the iconic MCP35X. SWiftech demonstrates a comparative pressure test with a mini bench showing the MCP35X with a maximum head pressure of 4.4 M/h20 versus the new MCP50X at 5.2 M/H20, i.e. a 20% increase in head pressure for the later. Both pumps are specified with MTBF exceeding 50,000 hours.
Swiftech wouldn't comment on an MSRP yet, but it is said to be substantially lower than that of the MCP35x, and is also expected to ship end of March.
Third in the line up is the new Apogee XL waterblock. Thermally the block is fine-tuned for Ivy Bridge and Haswell. Hydraulically, the block features a higher flow rate than previous generations of Apogee blocks. On the cosmetic front, Swiftech has done a lot of work to make the block look like the heart of the system, and the Apogee XL features LED backlighting in the shape of a an X with the Swiftech logo at the center.
Fourth in the line up are the Limited edition Komodo line of graphics coolers. One version is shown for nvidida's GTX780 TI, and the other one for AMD's R290X. Both coolers feature large windows showing the coolant, and LED lighting of different colors (white, red, blue and green), that users can easil change by simply replacing a color strip thru a little trap door in the body of the cooler.
Fifth in the line up is Swiftech's Maelstrom V2 5 1/4" bay reservoir, also backlit with nice UV reacting LEDS, and featuring at its heart the new MCP50x pump. It is demonstrated in a monster Cooler Master Stacker case, and the pump is singlehandedly driving coolant thru 4 Triple 120mm radiators, a 6 core Sandy Bridge with the Apogee XL, and 2 Radeons R290X fitted with the new Komodo R9 coolers.
Finally, Swiftech demonstrates the extremely compact QC-NS quick disconnect non spill fittings now shipped in a gorgeous and durable black chrome finish.

BALTIMORE — The Red Bulls pulled one of the more surprising moves of the Major League Soccer SuperDraft, selecting John Rooney, brother of Manchester United forward Wayne Rooney, with the first of two second-round picks at the Baltimore Convention Center.
Rooney, a 5-10, 176-pound midfielder, had been playing in the lower levels of English soccer, but had wanted to start over on a continent away from his brother and felt the United States would be the perfect choice.
Little did he know he would be selected by the biggest club with the biggest spotlight.
"I never expected to be coming to the New York Red Bulls. It's a dream come true for me," Rooney said. "It's probably one of the most well-known MLS teams in England. It's such a big club and for them to pick me in the draft is amazing. I'm so proud that they picked me."
Rooney trained with the Seattle Sounders and Portland Timbers last season but never signed and decided to come to the MLS Combine last week and show his stuff. Getting away from his brother's oft-troubled career was also one of his goals.
"That's the whole idea of coming out here. I just wanted to build on my own career. I just can't wait to get going."
The Red Bulls selected defender Tyler Lassiter, from North Carolina State, with the No. 30 overall pick.
Billy Cortes, a Maryland midfielder, was selected by the Red Bulls No. 38 overall with their lone third round pick.

Elkins writes about 'The Worst Thing'
by AMANDA WINTERS
Sequim Gazette
Aaron Elkins got the inspiration for his latest mystery novel, "The Worst Thing," while on a boat trip down the Amazon River.
Elkins, an award-winning author and Sequim resident, was traveling by boat on the river through the jungle when he realized he hadn't packed his anti-anxiety medication. He'd suffered from panic attacks for years, sometimes waking up in the middle of the night screaming.
"A panic attack is just dreadful," he said. "You feel like you've gone crazy and you can't come back."
He relied on Xanax, a commonly prescribed anti-anxiety medication, to calm him down and shorten the duration of these attacks, which could last several hours.
On that eight-night trip he had to face his anxiety head-on. He had no other choice, he said.
And he hasn't had a panic attack since.
Facing his fears
Enter Bryan Bennett, the main character of "The Worst Thing," a designer of hostage negotiation programs and a chronic sufferer from panic attacks, due to his abduction and imprisonment in a Turkish dungeon as a young boy.
Like Elkins, it took a trip to a foreign land to make Bennett face his fears. But unlike Elkins, Bennett was kidnapped and taken hostage while in Iceland, which for him was indeed the worst thing.
"It's as much about a battle with himself as with his kidnappers," Elkins said.
Bennett is an "amusing" guy with a smart sense of humor, Elkins said. The story is told from his perspective.
Elkins said that while the book
isn't meant to be therapy for people suffering from panic attacks, the science included is accurate and he hopes it will help people.
Finding writing
Elkins was a physical anthropologist, professor and worked for the federal government as a training director before he wrote his first book, "Fellowship of Fear," in 1982. The book was the first of 17 about character Gideon Oliver, he said.
"It was kind of a mixed-up life until I found writing," he said.
Elkins' books have been published in more than 12 languages, made into a major television series, selected for Book-of-the-Month Club, the Literary Guild and the Readers Digest Condensed Mystery Series.
He moved to Sequim in the 1980s but moved often. He and his wife, Charlotte, returned to Sequim about 10 years ago.
"This is the first place we've come back to," he said. "We've lived here longer than anywhere else."
Elkins said Sequim is "stressless," which is good for writing but also bad for writing.
"It's bad for input because not a lot happens," he said.
Elkins will sign copies of "The Worst Thing" at 6:30 p.m. Thursday, May 26, at the Sequim Library.

It's been a while -- since 2008, actually.
That's the last time Wilson Area High School baseball team qualified for the District 11 tournament and won the Colonial League championship. It was also when the team's current seniors were in sixth grade.
A year later was the last time the Warriors made the Colonial League playoffs.
Entering this spring, Wilson is itching to get back to the postseason. With the bulk of its roster returning from an 8-12 team that missed out on districts by one game, the Warriors have the potential to make some noise in a competitive South Division.
But coach Matt Edwards is focused more on the fundamentals and everyday practices than setting his sights on the playoffs.
"I hear a lot of guys talking that (the playoffs) is definitely a goal for them," Edwards said. "It's their goal -- it's not necessarily mine. For me, I just want them to improve and keep doing the little things we talk about in practice. I've always been a coach of process. If you do the little things along the way, you're going to win."
The Warriors lost just three seniors from their everyday lineup and bring back a strong group led by Express-Times All-Area P/1B/OF Phil Pierfy and seniors Anthony Rodriguez (SS) and Nick Horinko (utility/P).
Pierfy hit .413 and went 4-3 with a 1.80 ERA in 54 innings on the mound.
"He's not comfortable with losing. It kind of eats at him," Edwards said. "Any time you have people like that, who have a very good work ethic and don't like losing ... I'm hoping the rest of our guys gravitate toward that. He has quite a bit of talent, too, which helps."
Wilson also returns a wealth of experience in seniors Dakota Bogoly (1B), Vinny Tenasse (OF), Anthony Sagrestano (OF), Tyler Smith (P), and Dillon Darby (OF).
Three-year starter and junior Jon Cintron will be back at catcher while junior Logan Murray (3B/OF), sophomores Skyler Heft (INF) and Erik Wallace (OF), and freshman Brandon Miller (INF/P) will make up the rest of the starting lineup.
"I think the biggest strength for us is we have kids who want to work and enjoy playing together," Edwards said. "We haven't won for a long time, so I'm not ready necessarily to totally pronounce that I think the experience will help them because we haven't had that experience of winning and getting into the playoffs yet."
Still, Edwards is hopeful for the Warriors this season, adding that he'd like them to be playing their best baseball toward the end of the year.
"I like our chances," Edwards said. "I think we're going to be fairly competitive. If we do what we're capable of doing, I see us capable of qualifying for the playoffs this year."
Notre Dame is no stranger to the playoffs, but this year's team is looking to take the next step.
Catcher Jerry Pascucchi, OF/P Kyle Buchman, P/IF Paul Roth, and infielder Matt Simko are all returning seniors for the Crusaders.
Notre Dame also brings back sophomore SS Eric Santiago, junior OF/P Zach Luke and junior OF/P Charlie Barebo to the starting lineup.
"I think we have the potential to qualify for playoffs," said coach Mike Bedics. "I think if we can put a good string of wins together, I think we should be as competitive as anybody for a Colonial League spot."
For the last two years, the Crusaders have come as close to winning a championship as possible without winning one. In 2012, they lost in the Colonial championship and in 2013, they lost to Salisbury in the District 11 final.
"The kids have been talking about they want to get back to the district (final), get an opportunity to play for a championship," Bedics said. "These kids are hungry for a gold medal. I think we can compete for one this year."
Roth, who hit .407 last year and won six games on the mound, is "definitely our top player," Bedics said. Santiago started every game at shortstop last year and hit .342, slowly taking on a bigger role as the season went on. From the leadoff spot, Buchanan hit .391 in his junior year and Bedics is hoping he can continue to get on base to spark the Crusader offense.
Joining Wilson and Notre Dame in the stacked South Division is Saucon Valley, a team that is hoping to surprise some people this year. The Panthers started last season 2-10, but then went on to win six of their final eight games and are looking to build off that strong finish.
"I think it was a confidence boost for our guys and I think they feel like they can play with just about any team now," said coach Phil Sams. "This year, we're hoping we can start hot and stay like that."
The Panthers are anchored by their senior captains, starting pitcher Bryan Schoch and shortstop Stephen Gahman. They also return sophomore pitcher Brian Wildrick, junior second baseman Joe Schuyler, and senior P/C/3B Austin Cawley,
Rounding out the South Division is Palisades, which is led by a strong junior class with five returning as starters in addition to two seniors.
Senior outfielder Luke Hendricks missed most of last season with a hip injury but is healthy again and will be a key player for the Pirates along with senior infielder and pitcher Colton Smith.
Juniors Clayton Masarjian (P/INF), Nick Sanders (INF/P), Andrew Koenig (C/OF), Brandon Caraway (P/INF), and Tyler Caraway (P/INF) all return with experience under their belt as well.
"My expectation is to win as many games as we can," said coach Gary Koenig. "I think (the players) are excited and enthusiastic to go."
Salisbury remains the team to be beat, coming off a 25-2 season. Senior hurler Justin Aungst, who has signed to play at Saint Joseph's next year, will look to lead the Falcons to their second straight District 11 title.
Catasauqua and Southern Lehigh also bring back strong squads, a year after both teams made the league playoffs and the District 11 tournament.
North Division
Pen Argyl, who went .500 last year (10-10 overall, 8-8 league) and earned the six-seed in the District 11 Class AA playoffs, has the majority of its lineup coming back. The Green Knights missed the league playoffs by one game last year and are hoping they will be back in the mix this year.
Senior C/OF/P Devon LaBarre, who earned Express-Times All-Area honorable mention last year, will lead the way, especially on the mound, where Pen Argyl lost its three main pitchers from last year. That pitching depth will be especially crucial this year with the schedule likely to be backloaded due to the weather, said coach Jake DeBoer.
"We're hoping we have enough pitching," said DeBoer, echoing the concerns of many area coaches.
Four more seniors will be back in the starting lineup in 3B Logan Humphreys, OF Ryan Hunt, OF Nick Oyer, and 1B Joey Sisson.
Other returning starters are juniors Daniel Messerschmidt (INF) and Jake Krincek (OF) and sophomores Travis Slaughter (INF) and Nathan Black (C).
"Offensively I think we improved from last year," DeBoer said. "We didn't lose too much. We're hoping to make a push for (the playoffs)."
After finishing last year with a 10-11 overall record and 9-7 in the league, Bangor will go through some turnover on its roster, bringing back just four starters. The Slaters will have three freshmen and five sophomores on the team, but coach Gary Hartman doesn't want to think of it as a transition year.
"We're going to see a lot of young guys, but I don't really like to look at it as a rebuilding year," Hartman said. "I want us to be in the hunt playing for playoffs no matter how young we are. We're inexperienced, but I feel good about the team."
Seniors Tanner Brescancine (SS/P), Frank Cutter (2B/P), Colton Freeman (CF/P), and sophomore OF/P Carson Freeman are the returning starters.
The Slaters missed the playoffs by one game last year, but are hoping to build off that this year even with a young squad.
"We were right there," Hartman said. "They're hungry."

ENGLISHTOWN — RCMP investigators have recovered the remains of 81-year-old Jerry Hengeveld from a vehicle in St. Anns Bay.
© Chris Shannon – Cape Breton Post
An RCMP underwater recovery team has found the vehicle that plunged off the Englishtown ferry Torquil MacLean eight days ago and the remains of 81-year-old Jerry Hengeveld inside it.
Police confirmed the Waterville, Kings County man's identity using his driver's licence.
The body was recovered at about 2 p.m. The body remains on the scene and will be taken to the medical examiner.
The Toyota Camry will be taken to the RCMP's Cape Breton traffic services building in North Sydney for a mechanical inspection.
Hengeveld's family has been notified.
Earlier today, searchers confirmed they had found the vehicle that plunged off the Englishtown ferry Torquil MacLean eight days ago and the remains of one person inside.
Baddeck RCMP Staff Sgt. Craig Yorke said that a "large object" had been picked up using side-scan sonar which emits cone- or fan-shaped pulses down toward the sea floor.
A marker, a buoy, was placed on the water of St. Anns Bay, only a couple of hundred metres from where the ferry crosses the channel between Englishtown and Jersey Cove.
The car was last seen about 200 metres from the ferry floating away in a strong current on the evening of March 25.
RCMP earlier said Hengeveld was last spotted at a gas station in Baddeck on March 25. He was in the area visiting relatives, according to his daughter Linda Halliday.
Halliday said she heard reports about a car driving off the Cape Breton ferry, but it wasn't until Friday morning when relatives called to ask if she'd seen Hengeveld that she and her husband Bill began to suspect something wasn't right.
Hengeveld, who drove a 2007 silver-grey Toyota Camry, was last seen by his family on March 24.

Compared to the Jabra I bought my dad for his PS3 and the headset included with the LG Decoy, the H15 is much more comfortable and simply put, designed better. Weighing in at just half an ounce, the H15 feels just right in terms of weight and is neither too heavy nor too light.
Featuring a chrome gunmetal blue finish, the H15 has a large function button and a flip out boom mic acting as the power button that has a satisfyingly solid snap to it when closing and opening. Flip it open and the headset turns on, flip it shut and it turns off, making it that much easier to tell whether the device is on or not.
The H15's earpiece sits inside the ear very comfortably and has an unobtrusive clear plastic hook that rest on the outside of your ear eliminating the worry of it falling off, while aiding comfort during extended periods of use. The volume rocker button is just the right size and shape as well, making it easy to access with just the right amount of spring to it. The contoured design of the button is a nice touch as well both aesthetically and function wise. Even when using the headset in your left ear, the rocker is easy to access with the button located on the bottom as opposed to when the earpiece is in your right ear.
This is the rating system all of my test gadgets are judged upon. Not an exact measurement by any means, but there are always going to be things that tick me off or make me ask "WTF is wrong with this?" or "WTF doesn't it do this?" The lower the score the better.
Call quality was excellent, the H15 even cancels out background noise, and the device paired up with every phone I threw at it extremely easily. One side note though is that I had to enter a permission code to use it with the AT&T phones I paired it with as opposed to the Verizon phones where no passcode was necessary. I even hooked it up to the Playstation Triple with ease.
Motorola lists that the H15 has a battery life of four and a half hours talktime and a will last a week on standby.
Although a bit pricey at $129, I cannot help but recommend this earpiece based on the comfort factor, sound quality, and overall feel of quality design.
The WTF Factor (the lower the score the better): 1/10
And now for something completely different
The trailer for the new Godfather game due out in February. Anyone who knows me knows how much I am into the Mafia, but I'm sorry this looks like another PS2 era GTA ripoff. I own the original Godfather game only because of a Toys R Us buy 2 get 1 free deal, and it was only passable. In my eyes the best console Mafia experience is still the first third of GTA III, hands down.

Legislature tacking shared services
Bipartisan support is growing for legislation that mandates New Jersey municipalities work on plans to share services — or run the risk of losing state aid.
"The bottom line is that the taxpayers of this state need a break, and shared services is one way to give it to them," Senate President Stephen Sweeney (D-Gloucester), a sponsor of the bill, said.
The state League of Municipalities opposes the bill because residents would be forced to vote under duress. Few would reject consolidation when the other option is losing state funds, the group said.

Star-Ledger Statehouse Bureau reporter Matt Friedman reports that Senate President Steve Sweeney is dedicated to raising the minimum wage from $7.25/hour to $8.50/hour. A N.J.

After four and a half hours of talking about Tremadog at Plas-y-Brenin, it was too late to catch up with the gang over on Anglesey, so I headed down to visit Tremadog to have a look around for photo opportunities…
Wow! What amazing weather – there were loads of teams climbing. To say I was a little jealous of them enjoying themselves would be an understatement! Imagine how my levels of frustration escalated later when I heard how good the climbing had been over at Holyhead Mountain?
But I did get some nice pictures…

DETROIT -- A former federal agent who pleaded guilty to faking a marriage to gain U.S. citizenship and improperly searching FBI databases was sentenced Tuesday to pay $975 in fines and other fees, but will serve no prison time.
U.S. District Court Judge Avern Cohn said Nada Nadim Prouty, 38, "erred in judgment" 19 years ago when she lied to enter the U.S. in 1989 from her native Lebanon, but has provided "exemplary service to the country" as a federal agent.
Cohn also signed an order revoking Prouty's citizenship, but Prouty's attorney Thomas Cranmer said after the hearing she will not be deported.
Government officials have said they would not deport her because of her knowledge about matters of national security. U.S. Attorney's Office spokeswoman Gina Balaya said Tuesday her immigration status was "in limbo."
Cohn criticized media accounts of the case as well as the "excessiveness of press releases" issued by the U.S. Attorney's Office, which he said "grossly distorted" the case.
Balaya said there would be no comment on Cohn's remarks.
He also read an excerpt of a letter from an unnamed former CIA colleague, who cited her dedication while working in Iraq in 2003 when the insurgency was spreading and the agency was "understaffed and underappreciated" in Washington.
"This is sufficient punishment in light of the totality of the circumstances," Cohn said.
Prouty, formerly of Taylor, and now of Vienna, Va., pleaded guilty in November to conspiracy to defraud the U.S., unauthorized computer access and naturalization fraud.
Prouty told the judge she accepted full responsibility for her actions but has not betrayed her country.
"I accept full responsibility for my error in my judgment," Prouty said. "I admit I made a mistake. ... But I'm not or have never been disloyal to the United States in any way, shape or form."
Prouty hugged crying friends and family members after the verdict but declined to comment.
U.S. attorneys and agents also left the court without commenting.
While working as a special agent, authorities say Prouty improperly searched an FBI computer database for information about her relatives and possible links to the Lebanese militant group Hezbollah. She joined the CIA in 2003 and resigned as part of her guilty plea.
Prouty was not authorized to search the database for her name and that of her sister, Elfat El Aouar, and brother-in-law, Talal Chahine. Chahine was the owner of the former LaShish Middle Eastern restaurant chain.
Chahine is believed to have fled to Lebanon in 2005 to avoid federal tax charges. He is accused of skimming more than $20 million in cash and sending it to Lebanon.
Elfat El Aouar was sentenced last May to 18 months in prison for tax evasion and sentenced to 90 days in prison and stripped of her citizenship in February after pleading guilty to citizenship fraud.
There is no evidence that Prouty was working as a spy on behalf of any terrorist organization or foreign intelligence service, Cohn said.
In a related case, Cohn on Monday sentenced Samar Spinelli to $700 in fines and costs but no prison time for conspiracy to defraud the U.S. and passport fraud.
The Lebanese-born Marine captain, who accepted a plea deal in December, lived with Prouty and El Aouar in Taylor when prosecutors say she entered a bogus 1990-1995 marriage with Jean Deladurantaye.
Prosecutors say Spinelli facilitated the fraudulent marriage of Prouty and Deladurantaye's brother, Chris.

He could have done without "discouraging" losses at Northern Illinois and Eastern Michigan, or a lightning storm interrupting the season-opener at Michigan.
He'd have lived happily without ever seeing his team score 63 points at Toledo and lose, and without watching his wife, Nancy, suffer from shingles, however valiantly, to the point his eyes well up simply thinking about it.
If none of this had occurred, Western Michigan University's football coach would probably be preparing his football program for Tuesday's Little Caesars Pizza Bowl, just as he is now — a few more wins wouldn't have changed WMU's bowl destination.
But his tone might be different. His appreciation for this moment might be less.
Cubit looks and sounds at peace with the most pressure-packed regular season of his seven-year tenure as WMU's head coach.
Plenty of hindsight. But no real regrets.
"They're all stressful," Cubit said of coaching through any college football season. "There are always things you have to fight through. It's always there."
But this season was different. He faced the first must-win game of his career. Perhaps several of them.
Some of the moments that define the last few months for Cubit are personal — for example, the determined expressions of his dog-tired players as they battled to win at Connecticut.
And some are shared, beginning with a game Cubit knew he could not lose — Sept. 17 against Central Michigan.
We knew we had to win the Central Michigan game this year," said Nancy Cubit, who stopped sleeping by Tuesday of that game week and came down with shingles, a painful skin rash brought on by stress, shortly thereafter. "There was a lot of pressure."
Said Bill Cubit: "The Central thing goes all the way back to when the (2010) season ended, that's the effort that went into that. ... They way the kids came out and reacted, I was really proud of them."
A 44-14 win ended a five-game losing streak to the Chippewas — when loss No. 6 might have meant the end of Cubit's coaching career at WMU — and turned out to be one of many must-wins in terms of reaching a bowl game.
If only it hadn't put his wife in agony, with a condition she still hasn't completely shaken.
Nancy Cubit's uncomfortable season made even Bill Cubit's better moments less enjoyable. It made his worst moments, well, a lot worse.
His wife missed WMU's 51-22 debacle at Northern Illinois, skipping her first road trip in seven years.
"I felt almost as bad as if I missed my child being born or something," Nancy Cubit said. "It left such a pit in my stomach not being with them. It's the worst pain I have ever dealt with. ... For it to happen during the season, it just broke my heart. Every week I thought, 'I'm getting better, I'm getting better.' It just wasn't happening.
"I feel thankful that at least it's something that's going to get better. There so many people that have diseases that are not curable."
"Going through Nancy this year, it was really tough," Cubit said, pausing, with a clear lump in his throat developing. "She, she struggled. Bad. Like the one game (against Eastern Michigan) she said, 'I've got to get to the game.' I said, 'You can't. You can't go.' She said, 'No, I miss the kids. I miss being there.' And as soon as she came home, she'd regressed right back.
"But, at the same time, she just hangs in there, comes up here with the brownies for the kids. When they see her walking in with a bag, everybody knows it's birthday time. It was different than it's been in past years."
There was little Bill Cubit could do for his wife — other than win enough to allow him and his wife to keep their life in Kalamazoo.
On that front, WMU's 14-10 loss at Eastern Michigan told Cubit his offense needed to be adjusted and he had to keep his top receivers fresh.
The Broncos' offense didn't struggle again.
But even after WMU's defense-aided win at Miami of Ohio likely cemented Cubit's job status, a bowl game — and the opportunity to potentially make program history — was far from secure.
"Akron, we knew we had to put on a show," Cubit said of the Broncos' 68-19 win on Nov. 25 on the arm of backup quarterback Tyler Van Tubbergen. "The Little Caesars Bowl reps were going to be here. I told the kids, 'Look, there's pressure on this game. You're going to have to play lights out.' And then you go in without your quarterback. We all know what Tyler's like here (at practice), but how's Tyler really going to be in the game?"
Six touchdown passes later, that question was answered.
More than four weeks later, Cubit is focused but willing to be reflective. And grateful.
"Shoot, Nancy's doing great. My dad's doing great. Two girls are doing great. I'm with Ryan every day," Cubit said, talking lastly about his daughters and also his son and quarterbacks coach Ryan Cubit. "I'm really blessed. I'm working with great kids. I'm happy. I'm getting a chance to do what I like to do every single day.
"It's been a good place. Now we're going to try to (win) a bowl game. We've got a chance to do something nobody else has ever done in the history of Western football. It's another nice challenge."

Let's start of with a few basic identifying points: I am an anti-theist gnostic atheist. I understand what I am implying by claiming 'gnostic'. Imagine atheism is as the theory of gravity is. Would you contest someone stating gravity is a fact despite not knowing every tiny detail? If so, then nothing I am willing to expel energy saying will change your mind on my gnostic atheism. Some my wonder why I'm making a defense about this here. My point will be clear as I progress.

In my short time as an Atheist - less than a year now - I've heard lots of people talking about spirituality and how Atheists have none. This isn't just coming from believers either. Atheists, on several occasions, have contested it. I wasn't sure why, really. I consider myself a spiritual Atheist. I'll explain why later, but let's look at the word "spirit" and how it's used so that I can better define what I'm talking about here.

Of course, science is not the enemy of religious faith. Sanity is. (ichbindaswortistich)
Over the ages, all religious pretensions, regardless of the respective faith of which they may have originated, have been disproved beyond any reasonable doubt. The earth is not flat but a sphere. The earth revolves about the sun, not vice versa. The earth is not the centre of the universe but a tiny planet in only one of myriads…Continue

I am 21 years old, and I was not raised in a church, or told to say my prayers before I wen to bed at night. To be honest, you wouldn't have known god had a presence in my childhood home at all except for a small wooden cross on the wall. My father and step mother are by self declaration Catholic, though they have never attended Mass once in my life that I know of..now on the other side of the family my mother and step father are very religious; church every sunday, prayer, etc.

These days it's named Sauget, after the family which runs virtually every aspect of it—its real estate, its minor league baseball team (which plays on Sauget Field), and several of its nightclubs, of which there are so many that they are collectively known as the Sauget Ballet. The town's pollution has led to numerous lawsuits, and inspired the song Sauget Wind by alt-country group Uncle Tupelo. [more inside]
