"I (will) give back the knockout," Silva told Helwani when asked how he believes he will defeat Weidman on Dec. 28. "I'm working hard now. Chris is the new champion and is a great fighter, but I'm training hard. The new Anderson is coming."
The Brazilian plans to end the fight with a knockout, but he doesn't expect Weidman to stand in front of him at UFC 168.
"I (will) train more jiu-jitsu because Weidman come to fight me and (won't) stand up together in this fight," he said. "Go for the ground, go for the ground. I train more jiu-jitsu, and ninjitsu."
Silva admitted that his life has changed a lot since losing the title, and most of the people, including fans, has treated him differently since. But he doesn't seem to care.
"It's normal," he said. "It's the game. But my family is normal. This is more important for me. My sons, my wife, my brothers and dad. Other people, whatever."
He doesn't feel he needs a devastating win to prove he's the best middleweight in the planet, though.
"Come on, bro, definitely no," Silva said. "I'm working hard for a long time. My big goal is train the kids, new athletes coming. I'm normal guy. Sometimes I have good day, sometimes I don't have good day. People will have the new chance to see the real Anderson. It's normal."
After his first loss in the UFC, Silva said Steven Seagal shouldn't get all the credit for his devastating front kick knockout over Vitor Belfort, and he explains why.
"I have a good relationship with master Seagal," he said. "He is a great man, great master, but I worked hard the front kick for a long time. I started martial arts and my first master showed me the movement. I've trained Capoeira, Taekwondo, but one day master Steven Seagal came to the academy, watched the training, watched my front kick and said 'you move (to) the left' and that's it. (He doesn't) showed the kick and bla, bla, bla. He's not my coach, he's my friend."
UFC 168: Chris Weidman is now '100-percent healthy' for rematch against 'serious' Anderson Silva
"All American" shocked the world by knocking out the former pound-for-pound king in the second round, ending "The Spider's" long-standing reign in the 185-pound division and proved that, despite popular belief, the Brazilian bomber was indeed human after all.
And he did it all feeling "sluggish" and not 100-percent, thanks to two surgeries he went through a few months prior to the "Sin City" showdown. I guess that evens out the playing field, considering that many felt Silva only lost due to the fact that he was "acting inappropriately" inside the cage.
But, ahead of his much-anticipated rematch at UFC 168 on Dec. 28, 2013, Weidman is confident he will be more comfortable and healthier inside the cage when he takes on the "serious" version of "The Spider."
He explained during his recent appearance on "The MMA Hour:"
"I'm expecting a war, just like I expected the first one. I'm going to be going for the finish. I expect to feel better in this fight, I won't have to deal with coming off two surgeries. I just feel like a was a bit sluggish in that last fight; didn't really feel 100-percent myself, but I got the 'W,' which is good, but in this next fight I feel like I will be a bit more comfortable and confident to go out there and do what I gotta do."
He continues:
"I knew going into this fight that I was going to have to fight him again and that's what I wanted. If there wasn't a lot of doubters right now, this next fight wouldn't be something that people want to see. But, there are a lot of people that can't fathom Anderson Silva actually losing to anybody. So, that fact that I got him and knocked him out while he was doing his taunting that he does in every one of his fights; people are just going to say that he wasn't serious. So, I guess the 'serious Silva' is going to come out on December 28 and we will see if I got lucky or not."

Just in case the baseball playoffs don't have you seamheads on cloud nine, McFarlane Toys is proud to unveil our MLB 20 lineup, as well as the Mets and Red Sox 3-packs. These items are exclusive to Toys 'R' Us, and will ship February 2008, alongside the Cooperstown 5 and 3-inch MLB 6 lineups. Pause the playoff game and take a peek at your 2008 shopping list:
Chase Utley, Philadelphia Phillies 2B: A two-time All-Star who delivered 100 RBI in his first two full seasons, Utley brings slick fielding, timely base stealing, and the most dangerous bat of any player at his position. With Utley and Ryan Howard patrolling the right side, Phillies fans have plenty of reasons to cheer for years to come.
Barry Zito, San Francisco Giants P: A three-time All-Star and former Cy Young award winner, Zito came out of unrestricted free agency with the largest pitcher's contract in baseball history - signing with the San Francisco Giants for a seven-year deal.
Chien-Ming Wang, New York Yankees P: After a promising 8-5 record as a rookie in 2005, Wang developed into the ace of New York's staff in just his second season. He won 19 games in 2006, and finished second in the American League Cy Young award voting. With a bowling-ball sinker and a powerful offense behind him, Wang is an absolute staple at the top of the Yankee rotation.
Kevin Youkilis, Boston Red Sox 1B: His hitter's eye and defensive flexibility has seen him bounce around Boston's lineup the last few years, but in 2007 he firmly established himself as Boston's starting first baseman. Dubbed "The Greek God of Walks," by the Fenway faithful, Youkilis hits for average and power, but doesn't mind walking to first to set the table for the Ortiz/Ramirez wrecking crew that hits behind him.
Gary Sheffield, Detroit Tigers OF: The Tigers turnaround was baseball's best story in 2006, but falling just short in the World Series led them to upgrade their offense. Detroit acquired Sheffield from New York, adding a wicked right-handed bat to their offense and a cannon arm to right field. The Tigers' roar is a little louder this year, as their newest slugger speaks loudly AND carries a big stick.
Paul Konerko, Chicago White Sox 1B: Konerko was a highly regarded prospect for the Dodgers, but never truly realized his potential in Los Angeles or Cincinnati. Once he arrived on Chicago's South Side, he exploded into the dynamic force we see today. Konerko rewarded the organization's faith by dominating the post-season in 2005 - crushing five homers and delivering 15 RBI in Chicago's 12 playoff games that culminated in the World Series championship.
In addition to the six-figure lineup, Toys 'R' Us will also have a pair of 3-packs available - featuring a Sports Picks debut and five figures in uniforms we've never released before:
Boston Red Sox 3-pack (alternate red jerseys)
Manny Ramirez 2, Jonathan Papelbon and J.D. Drew
New York Mets 3-pack
David Wright, Carlos Delgado and Pedro Martinez 2 (alternate black jerseys)
Look for MLB 20 and the Mets/Red Sox 3-packs exclusively at Toys 'R' Us stores in February 2008.

UT students win cash for innovative business ideas in competitionWritten by Duane Ramsey | | email@example.com
The University of Toledo College of Business and Innovation (COBI) announced the four winners of its fourth annual Business Innovation Competition on April 15 with $17,500 in prize money being distributed to those winners.
"The spirit of entrepreneurship is critically important to the ongoing success of every university and every community," said COBI Interim Dean Thomas Sharkey.
"This business competition truly reflects the college's emphasis on supporting innovation, fostering creative thinking and nurturing the entrepreneurial environment which is so essential for the life and growth of this region."
Day-to-Day Independent Prosthetic, led by Kyle Wasserman, won first place and $10,000 for its device designed specifically to help double amputee victims with limited use of their hands to gain their independence back to perform day-to-day tasks.
Wasserman, who will graduate from the College of Engineering in May, said the winning product was his senior design project. He worked on the product with other UT engineering students Derek Weickert, who also graduates in May, Daniel Romanko and Robert Castilleja, who graduated in December.
Since Wasserman also claimed the top prize in college's third annual competition last year, he took the responsibility for the entry in this year's contest.
"It was a good opportunity to try again," Wasserman said. "This win means a lot. The money will help and the guidance we receive from faculty and other resources on campus is invaluable."
Wasserman, along with Kyle Keiser, won the business plan competition last year for their Slide-Off Hangers, a unique hanger design that minimizes damage or stretching when removing shirts. He reported they now have production capabilities and packaging for that item, are working on distribution channels and expect it to be available in stores shortly.
"It is more than just the money. It's about helping people," Wasserman said.
The first Day-to-Day Independent Prosthetic Device was developed for and is used by Sister Pat Taube, a local nun who lost both hands.
"She is using the device, which she is able to put on and take off independently. She can now do day-to-day activities that we take for granted, such as feed herself, write or use her cellphone," Wasserman said.
Minimally Invasive Thrombectomy Device, developed by Ted Otieno, An Nguyen and Mohammad Elahinia, won second place and $5,000. The product is a universal, minimally invasive blood clot removal device, according to the team.
Elahinia is an associate professor of mechanical engineering while Nguyen and Otieno are students in that field at UT. They are working with the UT Medical Center on researching and testing the device to determine its relevance and use in the medical field, Elahinia said.
The Grypshon team of Tom Burden and Bryan Heiser took third place and won $2,000 with their rubberized material used to keep mechanics and their tools from sliding off the aircraft during maintenance and repairs.
Burden and his Grypshon team also won first place in the student category at the Pitch and Pour event in January and won the Startup Weekend Toledo competition at UT in September.
Burden reported earlier that they have found local sources so the Grypshon friction mat will be fully developed and produced in the Toledo area.
The Whitetail Mowing LLC team of Wasserman, Keiser, and Shawn Kluck won honorable mention and $500 for its independent attachable string trimming device that is mounted on a zero turn mower.
"These technologically innovative ideas clearly demonstrate creative thinking within the UT campus, which is exactly what this competition strives to foster. We are pleased to see this competition, now in its fourth year, continue to become a critical step in developing an innovation ecosystem that fosters the creation of legitimate new products and services for our society," said Dr. Sonny Ariss, chairman of the COBI Management program and Director of the Small Business and Entrepreneurship Institute at UT.
"In my eyes, you are all first place winners for taking the time to develop your creative ideas," Ariss told the finalists. "I congratulate you on earning this prize money, and encourage you to move forward. This money is a seed to continue to develop your ideas.
"Product development is a long process, so put serious time and effort into your idea. You need to be willing to sacrifice for the sake of making it succeed," Ariss said.
Entries for the fourth COBI business plan competition were due in February. Finalists made an oral presentation about their businesses to a panel of judges in April. Prize money is awarded to the newly formed business entity, not to the individuals, according to UT officials.

Dining Services
Mark Wagner and Joe Johnson aim to please the palate. Mark, our director of dining services, and Joe, our executive chef, are dedicated to whipping up a variety of tasty and nutritious buffet-style foods for you and your fellow students to enjoy.
Both men worked at Cucina, the highly regarded Kohler Co. restaurant, for more than a decade before bringing their collective talent, experience and imagination to Lakeland.
Says Mark, who has created fine cuisine at Lakeland for 12 years: "At least 75 percent of the food we prepare is directly driven by what our students want. We talk one-on-one with them daily."
So interactive are the relationships between Mark, Joe and our students, Lakeland's chefs have been known to borrow treasured family recipes and prepare students' favorite meals. In addition, Mark and Joe work closely with students and their families to offer gluten-free and allergy-safe fare.
Those are just a couple of ways Mark, Joe and the rest of our friendly, dedicated staff strive to make you feel at home. There are many other aspects of Lakeland Dining that make us a cut above other colleges. Among them:
- A collection of homemade soups, including the popular chicken dumpling and tomato
- Fresh in-season produce from four local farmers
- Renowned Johnsonville brats a handful of times each semester
- Locally produced desserts from an area bakery
- Vegetarian options for every mealtime
- A week-long "no-fry zone," during which healthier options are offered
- "Creative Cuisine," special meals staff members produce in front of students
- Fruit such as melon, strawberries and grapes available with every meal
- A salad bar that includes iceberg and romaine lettuce, as well as spinach
- A wide assortment of baked fish

In addition to the vast array of Lakeland Dining offerings, the Muskie Grill serves up more than 50 fast-food options such as burgers and sandwiches. The Daily Grind, a popular campus hangout, sells coffee, lattes, smoothies and other beverages. Brand new to the Daily Grind is the Daily Scoop, which serves various imaginative flavors of ice cream in a cone or cup.
"We don't bring anything subpar to the table," says Mark. "The benchmark we have set here is much higher than at most colleges. I don't know of too many that offer the quality and variety we do."
- Sizzling salad – Fresh lettuce served with grilled beef and/or chicken and toppings and homemade buttermilk ranch dressing
- "Big-as-your-head" burrito night – A filling, tasty meal
- Steak, crab and shrimp night – Tenderloin steak with crab legs and butterfly shrimp (FYI, this doesn't happen very often, but when it does get there early!!!)

If you lose your card, please immediately report it at the Campus Card Office or call x6587 (after hours email ) and your card will be deactivated to protect any funds you have in your account(s). A new card can be issued during office hours. There is a $10 replacement fee if you need a new card. If you find your previous Campus Card, hang on to it. Your card can always be reactivated at no charge!
- One Card Account is the account that your Campus Card is linked to. Your account consists of the following: Meals, Flex Meals, a General Account, and a Muskie Money Account
- Lakeland Dining Meals are those which may be used in the main dining hall - Bossard Hall. Lakeland Dining is an "all you care to eat" facility where a Campus Card meal scan allows you to eat as much as you want at each meal. Food may not be taken out of the dining room (except for Grab and Go meals). You may use these for a breakfast combo in The Daily Grind as well. In keeping with our Sustainability Program, we ask students to eat all they take so food is not wasted.
- Flex Meals are regular meals with a flexible twist. They were designed to allow students to have a meal even outside of Lakeland Dining hours or to treat a guest to a meal if they wish. Students may use Flex Meals (during posted hours) in the Muskie Grill, The Daily Grind, The Pub or in place of a Lakeland Dining Meal. Use your Campus Card to make Flex Meal choices.
- Muskie Money is the next component of the meal plans. It is an amount of money placed in a "debit account" for food purchases in the Muskie Mart, Muskie Grill, The Daily Grind, and The Pub. This debit money may be used at any time those locations are open. You cannot add money to this account nor will unused money be refunded.

Randy Nixon's "Issues that do not meet the eye: Design considerations for lining existing concrete tanks to hold solids" was published in the May 2014 issue of WE&T.
Dave Crowe presented an overview of "Corrosion of Stainless Steels in Organic Acids" at the meeting of STG38, Pulp, Paper and Biomass Conversion, during NACE Corrosion 2014 in San Antonio. There has been increasing interest in bioconversion processes to extract sugars and organic acids from wood using a variety of proprietary processes. Conditions may be outside of the currently established usage range of temperature, pressure and pH for stainless steels, and food purity issues may now be of concern. Corrosion behavior of 316L stainless steel for the range of organic acids was reviewed. The effect of chloride concentration may affect the corrosion behavior negatively, but has been poorly characterized. Newer steels such as duplex grades look appealing, but corrosion rate data are needed for plant design. Corrosion testing was recommended as an important component of process design and pilot plant studies.
Dave Bennett will be presenting two papers at the TAPPI PEERS Conference in September in Tacoma, covering duplex and ferritic stainless steel sheet linings and duplex stainless steel pipe procurement. He will also participate on two workshop panels dealing with painting paper machine wet ends and maintenance painting of steel structures.
Bert Schutza gave a presentation on Underground Storage Tank Corrosion Protection at the 2013 TASTP (Texas Association of Storage Tank Professionals) Seminar and Annual Meeting in December
Russell Spotten will be a presenter at the NACE Channel Islands Section's "Build A Tank in a Day Seminar in October. Russell will review the newly revised AWWA Standard D102-14, Coating Steel Water-Storage Tanks.
CPI's Rincon, GA office was contacted by a southern US pulp and paper mill to provide materials selection and oversight for the construction of a new Tall Oil Reactor and Separation Tank. Due to the hot and highly corrosive environment generated by diluting or mixing high concentration sulfuric acid, many traditional designs of tall oil reactor have suffered aggressive localized thinning, and have required frequent inspections and repairs. Through analysis of the different steps in the reaction process and experience in the chemistry involved, CPI was able to select materials for piping, the settling tank, and the reactor for different configurations requested by the client. CPI's review of the designs prevented approval of a layout that would require exotic and costly alloys or be subject to rapid failure. CPI was also involved in verifying the overall quality of the tank fabrication to ensure high standards were followed. CPI has frequently performed this type of upfront design engineering and quality verification for both metals and non-metals, particularly fiberglass reinforced plastics (FRP).
Over the past couple of years, CPI has been asked to investigate a number of instances in which stainless steels and aluminum alloys have suffered accelerated deterioration in water and wastewater treatment plants. The 300-series stainless steels are widely used in these environments, but are susceptible to localized corrosion and stress corrosion cracking. Their limitations should be considered carefully. CPI has considerable expertise and experience in the use of stainless steel and aluminum alloys for water and wastewater plants, and we can offer selection advice, guidance for specification and design, welding support and failure analysis
CPI completed a condition assessment and corrosion survey of the fire protection system piping for a major aerospace firm. The purpose of the assessment was to ensure the safety of plant personnel and protection of the very expensive, high-tech manufacturing equipment at the facility should a fire event occur. The CPI team identified two active leaks and severe corrosion on the internal surfaces of the piping in a critical assembly building; heavy corrosion on the exterior surfaces of the steel fire system pipe a few inches below the surface of the ground; and significant internal deposits that may have rendered the system ineffective in the event of a fire. This was deemed an invaluable service to the facility owner, as it uncovered certain anomalies in the fire protection system that could possibly have resulted in catastrophe at this facility where "failure is not an option".

Many arrive at Sonny's. Maxie has a medical emergency, Ellie is stood up, and Kristina makes a big decision.
[General Hospital joined in progress 2:01 PM EST] Spinelli is looking at his phone.
Carly visits Michael's apartment to wish him a Merry Christmas and drop off his gift. Starr listens in. He opens it and finds his ELQ voting proxy. Carly asks him not to ruin his future for A.J. after all his challenges, including prison, and he argues he won't. They hug and as Starr comes out, Carly leaves. Starr asks which fathers' house they are going to. He then asks Starr to decide where they go. She says she will go anywhere as long as it isn't her father's and explains about the fake heart attack. She says she understands what Carly was saying. Michael asks how long she was listening to them and then explains to her what happened in prison. He discusses Abby and life after leaving prison. She thanks him for sharing and they kiss. She decides they should stay at the apartment for Christmas.
Connie visits her office, surprising Todd who's worried about Johnny. Connie says not to worry and creates an imaginary noose gesture with her hand. Todd says, "Please tell me you didn't kill Johnny." Carly shows up professing her hate for Connie after Connie leaves them alone. She tells Todd about going to Johnny's and how Connie was the only one there claiming Johnny left town. She thinks Connie is hiding something. They end up discussing why they are alone and decide to spend Christmas together. They decorate his office.
At Maxie's apartment Maxie chases Dante, Lulu and Ellie out to go to Sonny's party. As soon as they leave she calls Spinelli who has just arrived at Sonny's and asks him to come over due to an emergency. Spinelli arrives and she shares her worries about being pregnant, not being pregnant, or being pregnant with a puppy. She receives a call from Olivia checking in on her and tells her she is fine. Spinelli gets up to leave since there is no emergency and Maxie stands and bends over moaning. She says she has cramps and is worried.
At the Quartermaines, A.J. hopes Michael can join them for Christmas. Tracy wonders aloud if A.J.'s lying is not working on Michael. A.J. and Tracy argue back and forth and Monica holds up a CoeCoe cosmetic and tells A.J. she thinks she has figured out a way for them to break the tie in ELQ. They discuss Lucy Coe's share and she walks in. Alice tries to drag her away as Monica argues with Lucy. Tracy and A.J. automatically start treating her like a queen. Monica explains to Lucy what they are really after. Lucy appreciates the situation. A.J. calls Michael.
Olivia is at the hospital screaming at Steve to help them. When he asks about what she is referring to she points to an empty area outside the elevators where only she can see Spinelli carrying in Maxie in a vision. Olivia says there is something obviously wrong with her grandbaby. After Olivia calls Maxie, Steve sends her to Sonny's party. Later on Spinelli brings Maxie to the hospital. Steve calls Olivia and tells her that her vision came true. Dante, Lulu and Olivia show up and Maxie announces she is pregnant.
Kristina brings Trey to Sonny's for Christmas Eve. When she says she likes being with him he asks, "Enough to move with me to L.A.?" Alexis and Shawn listen to Sonny's concerns about a Christmas without Connie and the possibility of Michael having Christmas at the Quartermaine's. Alexis assures him he is right letting Michael make his own decisions. Sonny won't pressure Michael by calling to see if he is coming. He greets Kristina and Trey. Other partiers arrive. Max takes Ellie's coat and Milo checks her out when she arrives with Dante and Lulu. Kristina tells Alexis Molly is at the soup kitchen. Olivia arrives and says her radar is a little off when he asks if she has any insight into what Michael might do. Ellie gets a text from Spinelli that he is delayed. Sonny toasts his guests, celebrating the coming baby for Dante and Lulu, and to remember Jason. He stops as Connie barges in to join them with a "Merry Freakin' Christmas." Ellie receives another text from Spinelli that he is delayed again. Sonny tells Max and Milo it is Christmas, Connie can stay. She confronts Trey, but is nice to him. Sonny calls Michael. Outside Ellie bumps into Spinelli as she leaves Sonny's and breaks up with him. Kristina joins Trey on the terrace and says she will go to L.A.
Tomorrow's Port Charles spoilers for General Hospital:
Sonny receives some disappointing news from one of his children.
Connie is confronted by Starr.
Spinelli wants to discuss his future with Ellie.

Great so far We just bought this cabinet for our bathroom. Its great so far. There is a lot of storage, the shelves are high enough that all the bottles fit standing up. The door hides the mess of products that we need but don't want everyone who walks in to see. Looks great as well. May 28, 2013
Basic but works I use this as a nightstand because my bed is so high. It works perfectly but sits precariously on the carpet--the post legs seem wobbly. The interior has a very strong paint or chemical smell that has not gone away after 9 months. It is attractive and easy to wipe clean and has several shelves for me to place books and odds and ends.

Brattleboro Retreat can use building for vetsFebruary 19,2013Retreat can use building for vets
BRATTLEBORO The Vermont Environmental Court has sided with the Brattleboro Retreat on a proposal to house patients participating in the psychiatric hospitals Uniformed Service Program.
The program brings to Vermont firefighters, police officers, emergency medical technicians and service members suffering from post-traumatic stress disorder.
The retreat wants to use the eight-room Meadowlark Inn on Gibson road to house the patients while they are in Brattleboro.
The town Development Review Board approved the plan last June, but two neighbors objected, saying the Retreats use of the building would transform the property into a therapeutic community residence. They asked the environmental court to overturn the boards decision.
The Brattleboro Reformer says a judge ruled the retreat could rent the rooms to patients, although it could not offer psychiatric services or therapy there.MORE IN This Just InThe family of a Connecticut man who was killed in a car accident on Route 4 last Friday night is...

(Release: November 9, 2011) - Hagerstown Community College student Melissa Jones, of Hagerstown, recently completed a summer internship at the Chesapeake and Ohio (C&O) Canal National Historical Park.
During her internship, Jones, 29, served as an interpretive intern at the C&O Canal where she helped conduct research to develop a new program for the Amtrak Capital Limited Line that runs from Cumberland to Washington, D.C. As part of the Amtrak program, volunteers will share canal history with passengers as the train travels along the canal.
According to Jones, she came to HCC specifically with the goal of working for the National Park Service. "The internship was perfect because it gave me a taste of exactly what I hope to be doing in my career," says Jones. "It was a 'real 40 hours a week' position, which gave me the opportunity to experience the many different tasks that I will be asked to do when I become a ranger."
Jones says that her favorite part of the internship was meeting and interacting with canal visitors. "Whether they were there for recreation or to learn about the amazing history of the C&O Canal, it was such a pleasure to meet so many people from so many different places. It was incredibly rewarding to see others enjoying the park as much as I do and it's fantastic to know that I can personally be a part of helping each visitor have an excellent experience at America's greatest treasure – our national parks."
Prior to completing her internship, Jones and her fellow intern, Ben Guell, helped a visitor in distress at Maryland Heights near Harpers Ferry, W.Va. According to Curt Gaul, west district ranger at the C&O Canal NHP, Jones and Guell were approached by a visitor running down from Maryland Heights. The visitor was a leader of a youth group and one of the youths was suffering from heat exhaustion. Jones and Guell immediately called dispatch to report the situation and request medical support and ranger backup.
"When they reached her, the youth was unresponsive and due to the severity of the situation, Ben ran back down the trail so that he could get radio contact and report the status to dispatch. Melissa stayed with the youth and tried to make the girl comfortable while they waited for the medical unit and the rangers to arrive. Kudos to both Melissa and Ben for their quick action," said Gaul.
Jones will graduate from HCC in spring 2012. After graduation, she plans to transfer to Shepherd University where she will complete a bachelor's in history with a concentration in public history. After graduating from Shepherd, she plans to apply for a full-time position with the National Park Service.

SUNY Sullivan Announces Two New Sports Programs For fall 2013December 18, 2012
LOCH SHELDRAKE, NY (December 18, 2012) – SUNY Sullivan President Dr. William Murabito and Director of Athletics Christopher DePew are happy to announce the addition of two new sports for the Fall 2013 semester. The college is adding men's wrestling and women's volleyball to its current schedule of ten intercollegiate teams. The addition of these two programs is the start of an overall expansion that will add four more programs by 2015.
As part of the college's overall recruitment strategy, this move will achieve appreciable enrollment goals for the college over the next few years. Early estimates suggest that the addition of men's wrestling and women's volleyball alone will affect enrollment by bringing in as many as 40 new students. Besides being able to provide student athletes with on-campus housing options unique in the community college world, SUNY Sullivan's outstanding reputation and record within the NJCAA also offers them the opportunity to compete for a renowned program on a national level.
"The campus has had a proven record of providing quality athletic programs," said Dr. Murabito. "As we move to introduce new opportunities for students considering attending SUNY Sullivan, we believe the addition of two sports teams next year will be consistent with our five-year enrollment growth projections."
"This is a great day for SUNY Sullivan Athletics in our continued quest to be the very best Junior College Athletic Program in the country," said DePew. "I believe that the success of our current programs will breed immediate success for our future programs and I am very happy to bring Phase One of our project to fruition."
During the late 1980's and early 1990's, under the leadership of then SUNY Sullivan Coach and Professor John Webster, the college was home to one of the premier women's volleyball programs in the nation.
"We're looking to bring that tradition back," said DePew. "Women's volleyball will be making its return to the Sullivan campus for the first time since 2004."
Men's wrestling will benefit from the college's long-standing relationships with both the Beat the Streets wrestling program based in New York City and the organization, Friends of Section 9 Wrestling. The prior has held its summer wrestling camp program at SUNY Sullivan for the past three years and most recently has teamed with SUNY Sullivan to bring in the world famous J. Robinson Intensive Wrestling Camp to the college in the summer of 2012. Friends of Section 9 Wrestling created and runs the Eastern States Classic High School Wrestling Tournament, which SUNY Sullivan has hosted for many years. The Eastern States Classic is the premiere High School Wrestling Tournament in the Northeast and will be held at SUNY Sullivan for the eighth time on January 10, 2013. These close local, regional and national scholastic wrestling ties prompted SUNY Sullivan to explore bringing intercollegiate wrestling to campus.
"Men's wrestling is an initiative that's been several years in the making," said DePew. "We're excited that it will benefit many high school wrestlers who see limited opportunities on the collegiate level. We are excited about filling that need and making SUNY Sullivan Wrestling a National Junior College power in year one."
The college has mapped out a plan to add up to four more intercollegiate sports over the next three years. Under the current plan, men's and women's soccer would be added in 2014, with men's lacrosse and women's softball to follow in 2015. These additions would also bring the creation of new athletics fields on campus. Above all, however, the new programs would attract more of the distinctive student athletes who have become a hallmark of the college.
"Our student athletes are great representatives of the campus, and we are exceptionally proud that the athletes perform better academically than our general student population," said Dr. Murabito. "Growth and excellence will continue to be hallmarks of the new SUNY Sullivan."
The college has begun its search for a head wrestling coach and women's volleyball coach and expects to hire the new staff members by the end of January 2013. Recruitment efforts will begin immediately following the new hires.
SUNY Sullivan presently fields 10 competitive sports teams – men's and women's basketball, baseball, men's and women's golf, co-ed cheerleading, men's and women's cross country, and men's and women's outdoor track. Its men's basketball team, the Sullivan Generals, holds the record for most NJCAA Division III National Tournament appearances (11), and has a record four national titles.
The college is also the host school of the NJCAA Division III National Men's Basketball Tournament through 2016. This year's tournament will take place on March 14, 15, & 16, 2013. For more information, including athletics schedules, scores, class schedules, and fitness and sports courses available at SUNY Sullivan, visit www.sunysullivan.edu.

As you likely know, Windows 8 has a number of design features targeted at tablets. Microsoft is scheduled to launch it later this month. But just because the OS is ready (and there are doubts about that as well) doesn't mean that the hardware will be.
For desktops and laptops, of course, Windows 8 should run on the same hardware as Windows 7. That's not a problem. This thread is about tablets.
Microsoft is trying to hedge its bets, with both an x86 version and an ARM version, with the latter called Windows RT. Let's take them one at a time.
Only three companies have an x86 license, so Microsoft will have to hope that at least one of them makes a good tablet processor for Windows 8. On the Intel side, we mainly have Clover Trail Atom.
This is basically a tablet variant of Cedar Trail Atom, which was such a colossal flop that Intel wanted no attention for it whatsoever. The initial launch consisted of adding the parts to a list on Intel's web site, without so much as a press release. The press release did come later, but not review samples, as Intel didn't want to get buried in a barrage of negative reviews for a part that lost to AMD's older Brazos platform in just about every way imaginable.
Intel also has ULV Ivy Bridge parts available. But 17 W is a bad idea in a tablet.
On the bright side, Haswell is coming next year. Intel is putting a heavy focus on bringing power consumption down in Haswell, and there will commonly be 10 W bins of it. Haswell will probably bring impressive CPU performance for a 10 W TDP, and plenty of CPU performance for a tablet.
The trouble is, to get low power for a tablet, you need integrated graphics. The next respectable graphics product that Intel launches will be their first. And Haswell probably won't be it. Intel has already announced that API support won't even catch up to aging Radeon HD 5000 and GeForce 400 series cards. Haswell graphics are mostly derivative of Intel's last few disastrous generations (Intel HD anything).
Broadwell is supposedly going to bring a huge overhaul on the graphics side. But that's not coming until 2014. Besides, until Intel ships a good video driver for some older generation product, you shouldn't trust them to have a good one for a newer generation product. We're getting close to 15 years of waiting on the former, and still no luck.
Next up, we have AMD. Here, Hondo will be a killer product for tablets. It sports two enhanced Bobcat cores on a 28 nm process node with AMD integrated graphics in a 4.5 W TDP. It was also cancelled (along with Wichita and Krishna, the laptop parts) due to serial delays of Global Foundries' 28 nm process node. Oops.
Rumor is that AMD has reappropriated the name and Hondo will be a 40 nm product that is basically the older Desna chip with some bits removed that aren't relevant to tablets, in order to save on power consumption. AMD is supposedly going to launch something or other on October 9. But a warmed-over version of a laptop chip that is nearly two years old isn't exactly ideal.
On the bright side, Temash is coming, and is far more optimized for tablets. It will feature up to four Jaguar cores on a Global Foundries 28 nm process node, probably with GCN graphics. But that's not until next year, so it won't be in time for Windows 8.
AMD also has Trinity for laptops, and could squeeze that into a tablet. But as with Ivy Bridge, 17 W in a tablet is a bad idea. AMD has a 19 W bin of Trinity that is a quad core with 6 SIMD engines. Could they make a 10-12 W bin that is a dual core with three SIMD engines (currently being sold as A6 versions of Trinity)? Likely. Should they? That's still quite a bit of power for a tablet, even if they could do it.
And then there is VIA. Were you even aware that VIA made x86 processors? VIA has a significant share of the market for ultra-low budget x86 processors in embedded systems, but nothing with the energy efficiency needed for a tablet.
So what about ARM? There are problems here, too. The ARM processors on the market are basically targeted at cell phones at best, or even lower power alternatives otherwise. If you put a cell phone chip into a tablet, you get cell phone performance. Tablets should be able to have bigger batteries and more heat dissipation than cell phones, which would allow for higher performance. But ARM Cortex A9 doesn't get there.
ARM Cortex A15, on the other hand, does. And lots of ARM partners have chips that use ARM Cortex A15 cores. They've shown them off at trade shows, but everything seems to be delayed, and I'm not aware of any that are in commercial products yet. There is the Samsung Exynos 5250, the ST-Ericsson Nova A9600, Nvidia Tegra 4, and TI OMAP something or other.
All coming--but all not here yet. Some of them were supposed to be here by now, too.
Well, maybe not all coming. TI is reportedly shutting down its OMAP division and cancelling everything. Oops.
What about custom ARM cores based on the Cortex A15? Well, there is the Qualcomm Krait. Qualcomm showed it off earlier this year, and performance is impressive. But it's still not here. My guess is that the Qualcomm Krait will be the first of the good tablet processors to show up at retail, but I really don't know.
There is also Apple, which is tight-lipped about upcoming CPU plans. The Apple A6 is even a custom chip, rather than a Samsung chip with an Apple label on it like previous generations. But don't expect to see an Apple chip show up in a Windows RT device.
And it's not like ARM vendors are going to wait for Windows RT to launch products. Google Android dominates the ARM phone/tablet market, and it's available today. Furthermore, there isn't much reason to believe that Windows RT will change that.
One huge advantage that Windows 8 has is that it will run software designed for Windows 7, Vista, XP, and so forth. There is a huge software base already in place. For ARM chips, Apple and Google have a huge software base, and Windows RT has... nothing. Now add to that a high price tag and rumors that potential partners are furious that Microsoft is launching their own tablets and may opt out of making Windows RT tablets at all. The Windows brand name is universally recognized, but Windows RT doesn't really have anything going for it that various versions of Windows Phone didn't, and none of those turned out well.

Your under the assumption that tablets have to compete with PCs - especially in terms of GPU power.
They don't. Intel graphics, as poor as they are, are still miles ahead of what tablets are using today - it's not all about the GPU, you've got to consider the total package - in a tablet it's the SOC, in a PC it's the APU (or CPU+GPU).
The iPhone 5 A6 custom SOC is the hardware to beat these days (in a phone or tablet). It's hard to compare graphics scores from iOS to anything else (especially since Apple is closed-lipped about the specs).
iPhone 5 common benchmarks
Tablets don't have to come close to competing with Desktops in terms of total power. They are always going to be extremely power constrained (who wants to carry about 5lbs of batteries in a hand-held device?), heat dissipation (no room for any fans or heatsinks, unless your doing it wrong) and input mechanisms (most tablets have some form of keyboard hookup, but your still limited to touch gestures for everything else - they are nice, but I miss my mouse sometimes). Even an ultrabook will be miles ahead of the tablet arena (if they are doing it right).
Tablets don't have to compete with PCs, especially in horsepower. They need to complement them.

My question is tablet WHY.
I look at a tablet as an ultra thin laptop with its screen turned around and glue to the base of itself. = <-- like that, oh and with a touch screen.
I don't know it seems like tablets want to be something they cannot currently be. Maybe the replacment for laptops , that are less functional and far more expensive. In otherwords, generally a bad idea unless your real rich.
Windows 8 seem to be MS attept toi seem more high tech then apple, but its a lot of what no one wants, but few a few super rich (and they don't really care) and a few fanboies ... those fanboies never stop beign entertianing.
This is central to the issue of CPU for them , what are they... how much power do you need on them? How energy efficiant do they have to be, etc?
Its hard to answer these questions because their rather pointless currently.

What can you do with a tablet right now? E-reader, sure. You can read e-mail, and perhaps some light web browsing. But they're not a credible replacement for a laptop, and adding a keyboard dock doesn't change that.
But the performance that you can get in a tablet with a given level of power consumption is about to go way, way up. Several chips are going to be an enormous advance over all currently available products. And they're chips that were supposed to be out by now, but they all got delayed and/or cancelled.
Right now, you can build a tablet around a cell phone chip, in which case, you get cell phone performance. The larger form factor of a tablet should enable considerably better performance than that. Alternatively, you can build a tablet around a laptop chip. One problem here is that laptops need a ton of stuff that doesn't do anything other than waste power in a tablet. A related problem is that many laptop chips can't have their power reduced far enough to be sensible for use in a tablet.
That leaves a big hole in the middle. It's a hole that is about to be filled, but the chips aren't here yet.

Probably the stupidest thing I have heard about Windows 8 is this. Windows 8 32-bit.
On tablets, I wish they would make a new tablet PC with a laptop chip like an A10. There has not be a graphically significant tablet PC in a long time which are basically tablets with a keyboard. Last best one used a nVidia 6250. Rest have used Intel IGP.

There are Atom(and some ULV) based Windows 7 tables for quite a while, i toyed with a chinese one that could run some games pretty decently, played StarCraft 2 on it on low to medium as a joke for a while. The problem with those was the weight which was about as much as a UM notebook or a netbook at the time, and the branded ones were rather expensive.
I'm running chrooted version of Ubuntu 12 on my Galaxy Note 2, and Galaxy Tab 2 on a daily bases mainly for office, eclipse and gimp and it runs it very well, and considering that it's running it with the Android OS in the backround(or well inside it) its even more impresive.
Windows 8 RT has quite low hardware requirements, and Windows 8 it self runs very well on machines with low amount of RAM and a limited proccessor, i did several trials with it on a VM and with 1GHZ proccessor, and 256MB of RAM using metro only apps it worked rather well..

I think with my heart and move with my head.-Kongos
I have a Nook "tablet" and it is useful, but the limitation of what I can do isn't really in the speed of the processor. The limitations are all centered around the touch screen interface. Simple touch operations are better than trying to click with a mouse, but anything more complex becomes time consuming. I am a touch typist and I can type somewhere between 70 and a 100 words per minute, depending on what I'm doing. I would be amazed if I could type 20 words per minute on a tablet. Even if spreadsheets or software development environments were available on a tablet, it would be pointless for me to even try using them because it would be so slow and painful to use the touch screen interface to do those kinds of things.
I can not remember winning or losing a single debate on the internet.

Helps if you have a light weight pained Android rather than what ever bloatware Microsoft are cooking up. Your processor doesn't need to be quite as killer then.

Rather than telling them to keep running Windows 7 forever or finding a way to get a 16-bit program to run on a 64-bit version of Windows 8 (I have no idea how hard this would be), Microsoft makes a 32-bit version of Windows 8.
The trouble with a tablet based on an A10 APU is that a 25-35 W TDP is way, way too much for a tablet. AMD's upcoming Temash chip will surely raise the performance level that you can find in a more tablet-friendly 4.5 W TDP. I think Temash is supposed to have GCN graphics, though it will probably only be 1-2 compute units.
I somewhat expect Nvidia's upcoming Tegra 4 to likewise have nifty graphics for a tablet; Internet rumors say it will support DirectX 11 and Open GL 4.x, which isn't something you'd implement if the graphics are only meant to display the desktop. I couldn't find any source where Nvidia directly confirmed that, though, so I don't know if it's just speculation.
If Microsoft cared enough for 16-bit support they would've upgraded their NTVDM to work in real 64bit mode to support X86-64 processors running in long mode, IA-64 processors can technically run it(and in the RC of Server 2008 for IA-64 they could) since they don't use have an " 8086 emulator"/legacy mode for 32/16bit support as the X86-64 ones do.
I think the only reason that we still have Windows 8 32bit, is that Windows 8 RT is 32bit, and you still got enough corporate desktops out there that do not have 64bit processors.

I don't think they should be intended to be a laptop replacement. I think that is the mistake that Microsoft has been making with their tablets all along, since the very first tablets over 10 years ago.
Laptops are meant to fully replace PC's, and be portable - for the most part. Tablets just need to supplement, or rather, compliment that.
That's why tablets didn't take off until Apple came around - everyone was trying to use them to replace the PC. Apple decided to buck that trend, and use a tablet to compliment a PC. Email, e-books, web browsing make it a formidable portable appliance, but it doesn't need to compete with full-blown spreadsheets or data processing. Besides, that sort of heavy-duty computing is being offloaded to the cloud anyway, with just light interfaces to be able to interact with it (of which are fully capable of running on tablets, although the interface may still prove to be a challenge).

Either of those on Atom or ARM Cortex A9 cores would have been just painful for what I do. Maybe I have heavier-duty uses for them than you do (sometimes my desktop Core i7 chokes on Excel, too). But then, those programs are what desktops are for, not laptops, let alone tablets.
There's also the broader question of, all else equal, do you want more performance or less performance? Because soon, you'll be able to get a lot more performance. It's not just a new generation of hardware, but a combination of a full node die shrink, adding HKMG, and having the first architectures designed for tablets all at once.

And soon, you'll be able to have exactly that. It will only be tablets that can hang with relatively slower laptops, but if you add a keyboard dock, it will be able to handle most (but not all) of the things that you might sensibly use a laptop for.

Whether or not laptops are meant to fully replace desktops, they're terrible at it. A tablet that could replace a laptop if you add a keyboard dock is a lot more plausible than a laptop that could replace a desktop. It's not there yet, and laptops will always have advantages over tablets, but they're going to get narrower soon. And it's actually the same problems in both cases: performance, input options, upgrade/repair options, and so forth.
As for Apple and the iPad, look at their ads. They say, look at all of these cool things that you can do with an iPad. They're things that you never wanted to do before seeing the ad, and if you stop to think about it after seeing the ad, they're things that you still don't want to do and wouldn't do even if you bought an iPad. But Apple gets people to focus on what iPads can do, rather than what they can't. That's the key to their success.
For things I'm comfortable doing on a tablet the performance suits me very well, it was an office 2013 for Windows RT so it was optimized, and although it was not a 20MB excel file with data connections, and more lines of VB than the base source of Windows NT was it still worked very well for you're every day office excel sheets.
Eclipse runs very well on my ARM tablet, or padphone, i'm not going to compile or debug applications on it, i use it when i need to review source code on the go, and i don't see my self actually using it in any other capacity on a tablet-like device even if i could.
As for the hardware buzz words, you don't really need "die" shrinks, or going High-K to facilitate better performance in laptops, I've seen chips that go into ElOp seeking missiles that operate at much high performance envelopes than what is commercially available today, and not they were not FPGA's or dedicated DSP's.
There is a reason why Intel did not license ARM, for them its easier to bring their processors to the thermal envelope of ARM SOC's than to bring ARM SOC's to what they consider to be the performance level of what they consider to be a desktop processor.
I have quite a few friends that work at Intel's IDC in Haifa, i've seen quite a few cool things but don't count on Intel bringing what you think, or "want" to mobile platforms any time soon, the market does not want it, and well does not need it. I got one of the "Intel Phones" couple a months ago and it works well(and funny enough overheats less than my Samsung Nexus, or SGS2 even tho it is running on ATOM), but their mobile strategy and you'll see it over the coming months is moving towards SOC based solutions for mobile platforms and rightly so.
And honestly if you ask me if i rather have 50% more performance, or 50% more battery life for a mobile device ill take the battery life any time, if you don't you really need to reconsider what are you using a tablet for if you have access to a power socket ;) And if you increase your PPW for a mobile platform it's much more sensible to have a longer battery life than allowing some one to run a much more demanding application on their mobile product.
Edit: since i don't really give a squat about buzzwords and product lines i actually had to check why did you trash Ceder Trail so badly, and i don't see a reason it's hard to find a bad review about it, it the N2800 and N2500 give about the same performance as the E-350/A-450 with nearly half the power consumption, not bad for a stop gap product which was put out only to test the core architecture for their SOC line. As i said don't expect those to improve like you think they will, Intel is going SOC for mobile platforms(AMD will eventually also once they figure out how to get there), and Desktop LV-ULV for Laptops..

If all you're using Eclipse for is a text-reading program, then yeah, a tablet should be fine for that. That's hardly a replacement for using Eclipse on a desktop for what it's really meant for, though.
Die shrinks are what drives Moore's Law. Do a full node die shrink and you can have twice as many transistors as before, with each using only about 70% as much power as before. That gives you your choice of higher performance, lower power consumption, more features (which can mean reducing power consumption by combining things into fewer chips), or some of everything. And that's always a big deal. While you really need architectural changes to fully exploit what a new process node can do, even a simple die shrink is a big deal.
Well of course Intel isn't going to license ARM for desktops and laptops. If ARM becomes the dominant architecture, then Intel is just one of many processor companies. So long as it's x86, Intel only has to worry about AMD and VIA. And they don't have to worry very much about VIA. Intel likes being the only one with the patents to produce an architecture, or at least, to have as little competition as possible. That's why they foisted Itanium on the world.
Well of course Intel's mobile strategy is moving toward SoCs. That's part of optimizing chips for cell phones and tablets. One major reason that earlier versions of Atom weren't able to convince any cell phone companies to bite is that they weren't SoCs. How many SATA ports do you need in a tablet? How about USB ports? PCI Express lanes? Put as many of them in a tablet as you would a desktop and they just sit there wasting die space and power without doing anything productive. Having more chips than necessary having to communicate with each other likewise wastes space and power.
You know what's better than having your choice of 50% more performance or 50% more battery life? Having both. In a desktop, it doesn't matter if a processor is burning a few watts at idle. In a laptop, it's far from ideal, but not catastrophic. In a tablet, it's a big problem. Intel is claiming that Haswell will have only 5% of the idle power consumption of Ivy Bridge, for a variety of reasons. AMD says that Jaguar cores will be able to shut down 98% of the core at idle, while Bobcat cores could only shut down 91%. Changes like that are what you need in order to make a chip suitable for tablets.
Meanwhile, except for games or watching videos, a processor is nearly always idle. Battery life is thus mostly determined by idle power consumption. To get more performance, you maybe burn more power during the brief periods when the processor is active. But even this doesn't have to be that much; if double the power consumption while active is compensated for by finishing the task in half the time so that the processor is only active for half as long, then it burns the same energy as before. That's perhaps overly optimistic (more performance -> higher clock speeds -> higher voltages -> worse energy efficiency), but there is some of that feedback effect.
As for Cedar Trail, there aren't that many reviews of them, as Intel didn't send them out for media samples. It roughly hangs with an AMD E-350 in well-threaded processor benchmarks, but it needs programs that scale well to four threads to fully exploit the processor. Atom gains a lot more from hyperthreading than Intel's desktop architectures because Atom's scheduler has a lot more holes where a given thread wouldn't use a core. E-350 only needs two threads to put both cores to good use, and completely crushes Atom in single-threaded performance.
E-350 has an 18 W TDP, while Cedar Trail Atom is 10 W. But about half of the E-350's TDP is for the GPU; my own testing found about a 7 W difference in total system power consumption between Prime95 and completely idle--and that's not all due to the processor, either. Meanwhile, Atom barely allocates any of that power to the GPU, which is why E-350 has a GPU that easily gives several times the performance of Cedar Trail Atom. I don't know if the new Atom can handle the normal Windows desktop, but previous versions of Atom couldn't.
But if you're looking for energy efficiency, then the chip to compare isn't E-350, but Z-01. That gets you 5/8 of the CPU performance and 1/2 of the GPU performance in less than 1/3 of the TDP. That will hang with Cedar Trail Atom in CPU performance with one or two threads, still completely crush it in GPU performance, and while using less power. Toss in that Brazos is cheaper than Atom, too, and you have a complete slaughter. Atom's only real advantage is slightly lower idle power consumption. No wonder Intel didn't send out media samples.
If you take a chip that gets so throughly outclassed in laptops and put it in a tablet, would you expect performance (by any efficiency metric, not just raw performance) to suddenly be awesome? I wouldn't.

Perhaps tomorrow will be better.
I am most certainly not an avid follower of IOS platforms but this seems a little behind the times?
I am assuming this is to compete versus the Apple foundation of IOS devices?They already have the TABLET and there is already proven software in amny ways superior to what large developers are producing.
Itablet Citadel ONE guy made this whole map.Yes there will be limitations but i am ok with zoning into another map to make a complete world,i don't need seamless worlds,i just want GOOD well done worlds.
No question ,at least to me that Epic Games houses the best minds in gaming,however this tech proves how it is already here and done better than some of our best MMORPG's.

CLEARWATER, Fla. - The Chattanooga Lady Mocs softball team (14-10) defeated Temple (5-9) in Clearwater, Fla. Sunday afternoon in a 9-3 offensive outburst. Chattanooga totaled 11 hits and eight RBI during the seven inning victory. Four Lady Mocs collected multiple hits and freshman Kaisey Carson (Indianapolis, Ind.) earned her second win of the season in a relief appearance against the Owls.
Chattanooga struck for two runs in the first inning, taking a 2-0 advantage early. Alyssa Taylor (Orange, Calif.) walked to begin scoring and freshman Anyssa Robles (Lawrenceville, Tenn.) doubled to put two on. Sarah Beth Roberts (Mt. Juliet, Tenn.) singled in the next at-bat to clear both Robles and Taylor off the bases.
Leading 2-0, UTC tacked onto its lead with a run in the second inning as Stephanie Rieck (Chandler, Ariz.) and Kaiti Dutton (Tulsa, Okla.) laced back-to-back hits to board two runners. Junior Tyler Templet (Woodstock, Ga.) flied out to shallow right center to score Rieck from third base. The sacrifice fly extended Chattanooga lead to 3-0.
Temple fought back in the bottom of the third inning as the Owls cut the Lady Mocs lead to one run. After the leadoff batter was hit by a pitch and the ensuing at-bat resulted in a walk, an error loaded the bases for Temple. With the bases loaded, freshman Rachel Albritton (Murfreesboro, Tenn.) was unable to work out of the bases-loaded jam as second baseman Leah Lucas singled up the middle to drive in two, cutting the Chattanooga lead to 3-1. Carson was brought on in relief and was able to get an out to bring UTC out of the inning.
After two scoreless innings, the Lady Mocs tagged Temple for two more runs in the sixth inning with Roberts walking and senior Ninjja Suetsugu (Sao Paulo, Brazil) singling. Rieck was hit by a pitch to load the bases and Dutton was handed a four-pitch pass to walk in a runner. Templet grounded a ball to second base in the next at-bat, a fielder's choice that allowed Suetsugu to score from third.
Temple was held scoreless in the sixth inning and Chattanooga loaded on four insurance runs on four hits in the seventh to push the UTC lead to 9-2. Back-to-back singles from Taylor and Robles led off the frame and a Kasey Tydingco (Fairfield, Calif.) groundout to second allowed one run to score. After Rieck singled to load the bases for Chattanooga, Dutton reached on an error that allowed Taylor to score and keep the bases loaded. Redshirt freshman Jenny Garcia (Miami, Fla.) was brought on to pinch hit and delivered a two-run two-RBI single up the middle to round out the UTC scoring.
Temple plated one run in the bottom half of the last inning, but the last minute effort was not enough to overcome the UTC lead, falling 9-3.
Chattanooga takes on Boston University Tuesday at 11 a.m. and Quinnipiac on Wednesday at Noon. Both games will be played in Clearwater, Fla. before the team packs up and travels to Greenville, S.C. to open up Southern Conference play against Furman.

Vacuum Cleaner Bags
Vacuum cleaning systems that offer the best cleaning ability – is that what you are seeking? It's also likely that you believe that cleaning ability is related to power or suction. Actually, it's not. While there's no single factor that determines the cleaning ability of the vacuum cleaner you use, understanding how vacuums work and how you can help maintain your vacuum cleaner to perform its best is important. Changing your vacuum cleaner bag is an important step in maintaining the efficiency of your vacuum cleaner. While most vacuum cleaners come with an indicator to help you determine when your cleaner's dust bag needs to be changed, you can perform a check yourself to see if it is over 50% full as that's when you need to replace it. Don't wait until the dust bag in your vacuum cleaner is completely full as it can reduce the suction and cleaning capacity of your vacuum cleaning system. If you use your vacuum cleaner frequently, it is recommended that you change vacuum cleaner bags once a month, especially if you are cleaning a large area over 2000 square feet or if your pet sheds a lot.
What you need the most when you are considering vacuum cleaner bag replacement is a bag that is well-matched with the model of your vacuum cleaning system. You can find original equipment manufacturer (OEM) or replacement type bags online. While both serve the purpose, that is enhancing the cleaning capacity of your vacuum cleaning system and providing you an easy way to get rid of all the dirt that you vacuum cleaner collects, you can choose one according to your budget and cleaning needs. At GoVacuum, we have got a vast range of vacuum cleaner bags from the biggest and the best brands around. You'll find them here at great prices and shipping offers. We are the vacuum cleaning system experts and can recommend the right bag for your existing system all while staying within your budget.

I'm working on a series of short fantasy books (target audience mid-teens to 30-ish). I'd like to know whether or not the short pre-story before the first chapter of the first book works as an intro, and I'd like some critique.
Specifically, I want to know:
- Does it catch people's attention?
- Does the style suit what I'm trying to do? (I've gotten conflicting feedback here.)
- Are there any rough spots I should iron out? (Grammar, wording choices)
Thank you!
The Legend of Gideon Flynn
This is a story that parents in Hael Malstrom tell to frighten disobedient children.
Once, in times long past, when dragons were still common and the Great Fault was young and Hael Malstrom's redwood was only a sapling on a bare hill, a pack of mercenaries and treacherous guards massacred a king and all his family: his wife, his children, even his grandchildren. Only one person of the king's household escaped alive—a young man named Gideon Flynn, the youngest prince of the royal family.
Gideon loved his father. He loved his mother, his brothers and sisters, his nieces and his nephews. He took his father's throne with a heavy heart, and he did not wait long before he plotted revenge against those responsible for his family's murder. And because he could not be sure which of his nobles were ultimately responsible, he had them all killed.
But it wasn't enough. Revenge, he thought, was supposed to satisfy. He felt nothing.
He began to pursue the men who might have been indirectly involved, spending the contents of his treasury freely. He put his father's enemies on sharpened spikes first, then their servants. When Gideon's friends spoke against him, he turned on them with the blind zealotry of a man who had lost everything. It was only a matter of time before the nation rebelled against their mad king.
When opposing armies marched down the capital's streets, when he found himself trapped in his palace with nowhere to run, Gideon turned to the only thing he still believed in. He threw himself from his highest tower and smashed on the ground below.
That should have been the end of the story. But it wasn't.
When Death came to Gideon Flynn, it told him that his hands were stained by the pain and blood of his people, that it had no interest in collecting his soul. It gave him healing and eternal youth, and the broken king who had wished for death became immortal.
It has been thousands of years since the fall of Gideon Flynn. The country Hael Malstrom has risen and fallen many times, under many names. A new line rules now—the peaceful Torlo family, who have discarded the office of king in favor of the more ambiguous 'Grand Meister'. The dragons are nearly gone, the great fault is old, and the Hael Malstrom redwood dominates the capital city Valdenemus. But they say that when terrible things happen to good people that Gideon's shadow has fallen upon them. He is the cause of droughts and calamity, and his presence lingers on his subjects to this day.
And though no one has seen Gideon Flynn for thousands of years, they know he isn't gone.
