Back from EGU 2016
We just returned from a very successful EGU2016 conference after presenting talks about radiocarbon-based age-model uncertainty, the role of paleoclimate reconstruction biases on model-data comparisons, the spatial scaling of temperature variability, reconstructing the temperature variability on the Antarctic plateau, and posters about glacial climate variability and the signal contained in Holocene proxy data.
Assessing performance and seasonal bias of pollen-based climate reconstructions in a perfect model world
Reconstructions of summer, winter or annual mean temperatures based on the species composition of bio-indicators such as pollen, foraminifera or chironomids are routinely used in climate model-proxy data comparison studies. Most reconstruction algorithms exploit the joint distribution of modern spatial climate and species distribution for the development of the reconstructions. They rely on the assumption that environmental variables other than those reconstructed should not be important, or that their relationship with the reconstructed variable(s) should be the same in the past as in the modern spatial calibration dataset. Here we test the implications of this assumption on Holocene pollen based reconstructions in an ideal earth system model world, in which climate and vegetation are known at all times. We show that correlations between climate variables in the modern climate/vegetation relationship are systematically extended into the reconstructions. Summer temperatures, the most prominent driving variable for modeled vegetation change in the Northern Hemisphere, are accurately reconstructed. However, the amplitude of the winter and mean annual temperature cooling between the mid-Holocene and present day is overestimated, and similar to the summer trend in magnitude. Our results indicate that reconstructions of multiple climate variables from the same bio-indicator dataset should be treated with caution. Expert knowledge on the eco-physiological drivers of the proxies, and statistical methods that go beyond the cross-validation on modern calibration datasets are crucial to avoid misinterpretation.
A two-dimensional view of water isotopes in Antarctic firn
In low-accumulation regions, the reliability of δ18O-derived temperature signals from ice cores within the Holocene is unclear, primarily due to the small climate changes relative to the intrinsic noise of the isotopic signal. In order to learn about the representativity of single ice cores and to optimize future ice-core-based climate reconstructions, we studied the stable-water isotope composition of firn at Kohnen station, Dronning Maud Land, Antarctica. Analysing δ18O in two 50m long snow trenches allowed us to create an unprecedented, two-dimensional image characterizing the isotopic variations from the centimeter to the hundred-meter scale. Our results show seasonal layering of the isotopic composition but also high horizontal isotopic variability caused by local stratigraphic noise. Based on the horizontal and vertical structure of the isotopic variations, we derive a statistical noise model which successfully explains the trench data. The model further allows to determine an upper bound for the reliability of climate reconstructions conducted in our study region on seasonal to inter-annual time scales, depending on the number and the spacing of the cores taken.
Warmer and wetter or warmer and dryer? Observed versus simulated covariability of Holocene temperature and rainfall in Asia
Temperatures in Asia, and globally, are very likely to increase with greenhouse gas emissions, but future projections of rainfall are far more uncertain. Here we have investigated the linkage between temperature and precipitation in Asia on interannual to multicentennial timescales using instrumental data, late Holocene paleoclimate proxy data and climate model simulations.
We find that the relationship between temperature and precipitation is timescale-dependent. While on annual to decadal timescales, negative correlations dominate and thus cool summers tend to be rainy summers, on longer timescales precipitation and temperature are positively correlated; cool centuries tend to be dryer centuries in monsoonal Asia. In contrast, the analyzed CMIP5/PMIP3 climate model simulations show a negative correlation between precipitation and temperature on all timescales. Although many uncertainties exist in the interpretation of the proxy data, there is consistency between them and the instrumental evidence. This, and the persistence of the result across independent proxy datasets, allowed us to suggest that the climate model simulations might be considerably overestimating the short-term negative associations between regional rainfall and temperature. Furthermore, they may lack forcing or variability that could create long-term positive relationships between them.

Glacial cooling as inferred from marine temperature proxies TEXH86 and UK'37
How much colder was the Last Glacial Maximum relative to present? This question has been pondered upon by paleoclimatologists since the 70s, mostly by means of proxies that are preserved in sediments. Because proxies are not direct measurement of the climatic parameters of interest, their robustness needs to be constrained, typically by using other proxies. In this study, we take a multi-site, multi-proxy approach in tackling the age-old scientific question of LGM cooling. Unlike previous studies, we limit our analysis to proxies measured in tandem on the same sediment cores to allow for a direct comparison. The mean LGM cooling inferred from an increasingly applied archaeal-lipid based proxy, TEX86H, is approximately twice as strong as that inferred from a better constrained alkenone-based proxy UK'37. Although differences in recording season and water depth are usually invoked to explain proxy divergence in single site reconstructions, we find it an unlikely explanation for the systematic proxy discrepancy observed here, judging from the seasonal and water column structure of LGM cooling in the PMIP3/CMIP5 simulations. Instead, it is likely due to a fundamental bias in the TEX86H calibration due to the unconstrained archaeal habitat depth and the export mechanism of the lipids.

Long-term winter warming trend in the Siberian Arctic during the mid- to late Holocene
Relative to the past 2,000 years, the Arctic region has warmed significantly over the past few decades. However, the evolution of Arctic temperatures during the rest of the Holocene is less clear. Proxy reconstructions, suggest a long-term cooling trend throughout the mid- to late Holocene whereas climate model simulations show only minor changes or even warming . Here we present a record of the oxygen isotope composition of permafrost ice wedges from the Lena River Delta in the Siberian Arctic. The isotope values, which reflect winter season temperatures, became progressively more enriched over the past 7,000 years, reaching unprecedented levels in the past five decades. This warming trend during the mid- to late Holocene is in opposition to the cooling seen in other proxy records. However, most of these existing proxy records are biased towards summer temperatures. We argue that the opposing trends are related to the seasonally different orbital forcing over this interval. Furthermore, our reconstructed trend as well as the recent maximum are consistent with the greenhouse gas forcing and climate model simulations, thus reconciling differing estimates of Arctic and northern high-latitude temperature evolution during the Holocene.

Back from Antarctica
ECUS Phd student Thomas Münch and AWI glaciologist Sepp Kipfstuhl successfully finished their field campaign at Kohnen station on the Antarctic Plateau. By sampling 3m deep and 50m long trenches of Antarctic firn, they could obtain a likely unprecedented dataset of the lateral variability of density and isotopes at a low accumulation site. The new data will allow detecting potential post- depositional processes influencing the water isotopes and will provide the empirical basis for statistical modeling of the stratigraphic noise influencing proxy records.
Ocean surface temperature variability: Large model–data differences at decadal and longer periods
Determining magnitudes of sea surface temperature variability is important for attributing past and predicting future changes in climate, and generally requires the use of proxies to constrain multidecadal and longer timescales of variability. We report a multiproxy estimate of sea surface temperature variability that is consistent between proxy types and with instrumental estimates but strongly diverges from climate model simulations toward longer timescales. At millennial timescales, model−data discrepancies reach two orders of magnitude in the tropics, indicating substantial problems with models or proxies, or both, and highlighting a need to better determine the variability of sea surface temperatures.

Global and regional variability in marine surface temperatures
Accurate representation of the spread in predictions of future climate is, arguably, as important as correctly predicting a central value. Comparison against observed variability is one means of evaluating the skill of general circulation models in simulating the spread of plausible temperatures. In this study we report on a systematic comparison of sea surface temperature variability between instruments and model simulations. Novel is that we account for data inhomogeneities and uncertainties in comparing with simulations. In comparison against the CMIP5 ensemble of simulations, global-average SST variability is consistent between models and observations, but regional SST observations show systematically greater variability at decadal and longer timescales. These results suggest that models underestimate intrinsic variability and may help explain why few simulations reproduce the observed trend in global warming over the past 15 years. Given the short instrumental record, there is some complication inherent to inferring variability during an interval containing substantial trends in global temperature. Thus, the logical next step will be to use of paleo-data (e.g. Laepple and Huybers 2013, see below) to extend the model-data comparison and to include intervals prior to this last century.

Appraisal of TEX86 and TEX86L thermometries in subpolar and polar regions
Due to a lack of correlation between TEX86 values and atlas SST in a limited number of surface sediment samples in the Arctic, the application of TEX86 paleothermometer in polar and subpolar regions has always been thought to be uncertain (e.g. Kim et al. 2010). By putting together existing data sets and newly analyzed 160 sediment core-top data, we show that there is in fact a good correlation between the proxy values and the overlaying water temperatures in the Southern Ocean and the North Pacific, demonstrating the applicability of the TEX86 paleothermometer in these regions. Whilst the TEX86-derived estimates fit well with annual mean SST, the estimates derived from TEX86L, i.e. the recommended index for application in polar and subpolar regions, are closer to summer SSTs. Since both indices are based on the same source organisms, the index difference cannot be attributed to seasonality, suggesting the need of further work in scrutinizing the definition of the GDGT-based indices.

Similarity estimators for irregular and age-uncertain time series
In this paper we investigate similarity estimators that could be suitable for the quantitative investigation of linear and nonlinear dependencies in proxy time series. We test the efficiency of Pearson correlation, mutual information and event synchronization in estimating coupling strength and coupling lag numerically, using ensembles of synthetic stalagmites with short, autocorrelated, linear and nonlinearly coupled proxy time series, and in the application to real stalagmite time series. While time series irregularity effects can be alleviated using the presented adapted estimators, age uncertainty increasing beyond 5% of the time series length makes it impossible to identify coupling lag or coupling strength. Mutual information and event synchronization show strengths in the analysis of nonlinear phenomena. A toolbox with functions to analyze paleoclimatic time series for dependencies is included.

Impurity controlled densification: new model for stratified polar firn
Based on our findings of a significant impact of impurities of the firn densification in Antarctica and Greenland (see below), we developed a firn densification model, which includes the impurity effect. The excellent agreement of simulated and measured high-resolution density profiles confirms the new approach. The new models allow us for the first time to simulate the density layering in firn down to the firn-ice transition and thus will allow for a more quantitative understanding of the air entrapment in ice-cores.

Core-scale radioscopic imaging: a new method reveals density– calcium link in Antarctic firn
Understanding the densification of polar firn is crucial for the interpretation of gases trapped in the ice and air-based temperature proxies and dating techniques. Recently (Hoerhold et al., 2012), we could demonstrate a significant impact of impurities on the densification. However, the effect in Antarctica was less clear, mainly because of the lower signal/noise ratio in the data.
With the development of a new technique to measure firn density and its application to a low-accumulation Antarctic ice-core, this work shows that the link between calcium and density is equally strong in Antarctica as in Greenland and thus seems to be a universal feature of the densification of polar firn.

A model–data comparison of the Holocene global sea surface temperature evolution
Significant discrepancies exist between Holocene Mg/Ca and Uk37 proxies of sea surface temperature variability. Using a statistical model of the proxy sampling processes and noise sources, these discrepancies can be understood and corrected. We thus provide a consistent estimate of regional sea surface temperature variability on centennial to millenial time-scales.

Reconciling discrepancies between Uk37 and Mg/Ca reconstructions of Holocene marine temperature variability
A systematic comparison of marine Holocene temperature trends from two independent temperature proxies (Uk37 and Mg/Ca) and a range of climate models shows, that the simulated trends are significantly lower than the reconstructed ones. Accounting for seasonality or depth changes in the proxy does not resolve this discrepancy. This provides a challenge for the interpretation of proxy data as well as for the model sensitivity to orbital forcing.

Current generation of electric vehicles (EVs) rely on lithium-ion batteries for power. While these batteries have their own advantages, the disadvantages cannot be ignored. Li-Ion batteries have longer life; but their energy storage capacity is very limited. Researchers have demonstrated that Lithium-Sulfur batteries can store as much as 4X the charge as compared to the Li-Ion batteries and have the potential to make it to EVs. The Lithium-Sulphur batteries can help extend the range of electric vehicles significantly.
The biggest obstacle, however, is that Li-Sulfur batteries have a shorter life-span because they can't be charged as many times as li-ion batteries. The unwanted reactions in Li-Sulfur batteries at the cathode, lead to dissolution of cathode itself in the liquid electrolyte. Researchers have been focusing on eliminating this problem so that Li-Sulfur batteries can be adopted into the mainstream.
The latest research conducted at the Pacific Northwest National Laboratory (PNNL) has led to development of a special type of nanomaterial, called "metal organic framework" (MOF). This material, in the form of fine powder, when applied to the cathode has shown that the polysulfides can be captured and the battery life can be extended. The experiments showed that MOF coated cathode could retain about ~90% of its initial power capacity even after about 100 charging and discharging cycles.
Researchers are now working on improving the effectiveness of the MOF so that the batteries can hold more energy even after several charging/discharging cycles.

Repairing Old Latches
An older interior or exterior door, and some newer high-end exterior doors, may have a mortise latch. These fit into rectangular holes (mortises) in the edge of the door. In many cases the mortise latch assembly includes a key-operated dead bolt.
If the latch does not operate smoothly, scrape away any paint buildup. (The latch itself should not be painted, though it often is.) Dig out any debris that may be holding the latch bolt. Spray a bit of graphite or silicone lubricant around the latch bolt. If these measures do not work, remove the unit and inspect it.
Repair parts or a replacement unit may not be available at a hardware store or home center. Renovation supply dealers and locksmiths may have them, or you can search Internet sources.
Prestart Checklist
Less than an hour for repairs, but finding replacement parts may be difficult
Screwdriver, pliers, vacuum or canned air
Some mechanical aptitude
Place a drop cloth on the floor below the door.
Spray lubricant, replacement parts as needed
To remove a mortise lock, remove both knobs and the shaft. (Usually you loosen a setscrew on one of the knobs, then pull it off. Some knobs screw onto the shaft.) Remove the two lock retaining screws and pry the mortise latch out.Remove lock cover
Place the latch on a worktable. Unscrew one or two screws and carefully remove the cover. Study the parts and how they go together so you can replace them correctly.Remove broken parts
If you see a broken part -- usually a spring or an arm that connects to the latch bolt -- remove it and try to find a replacement part. It may be easier to buy a whole new unit.Clean lock
Vacuum away dust or clean the lock with canned air. Lightly spray with silicone lubricant or graphite (not oil; it gums up), then replace the cover. Test and then reinstall the lock.

Not to dwell on the obvious, but Drug Rug is a particularly fitting name given the playful psychedelic touches and overall expulsive charms of the band's second full-length, Paint the Fence Invisible. It evokes that distinctly childlike sensation of spreading not some but all of the toys across the floor and creating a domain where Lego people or Matchbook cars can come to life. Only in this case the toys are drugs. That the name is actually slang for those thickly woven ponchos kids in high school sometimes wore seems secondary, but should be noted in terms of the illicit objects those kids sometimes carried in the big pocket on the front.
In their debauched playroom fantasy, the band taps into a straightforward but often clever stream of pop songwriting. While primary members Thomas Allen and Sarah Cronin hail from Boston, they appear more in touch with the spirit of Athens, Georgia, and the sunny side of Elephant 6. The tidier tracks on Paint the Fence Invisible recall the Apples in Stereo, especially lead single "Never Tell," which encroaches on the Apples' earlier territory in both lo- to mid-fi production value and nasal vocal delivery.
The production issue is particularly relevant here, as the band fixates on certain retro elements, but at times seems just as excited by oddball choices and the freedom provided by home recording. There is not so much a debt to any particular time, place, or sound as there is an overall acknowledgement of diverse influences. Allen and Cronin love the Beach Boys, this much is clear, but it is doubtful that they would even expect Brian Wilson's approval. Their music is too precious and too self-contained, not to mentioned dappled with irreverent electronic textures.
Album highlight "Don't Be Frightened by the Devil" makes good use of heavily reverbed, Pet Sounds-esque percussion, vocal harmonies, and an outro jam that grooves it out sans lead instrumentation. The song breaks up the album rather appropriately, creating space between the rollicking pop of the first half, and the headier escapades of the second. The title track, sequenced last showcases Cronin's fragile and undeniably cute voice, laid bare above a casual guitar arpeggio.
Paint the Fence Invisible couples sparseness and creative vibrancy, with every untreated strum and vocal crack complimented by a subtle twist in the expected arrangement. And while Drug Rug may never break out of their quirk-rock niche, at least they seem comfortable.

Chances are if you've been riding fixed freestyle for a bit you know who Rick is. One of the original dudes from MKE, ripper for sure and one hell of a photographer. Lately Rick's place in FGFS has shifted to being behind the lens more. He's taken an interest in showing everyone what some of the top dudes right now can get out of their bikes and does it well. Chances are you've seen some of his images, a few of which are below, littered about the net. Lately I noticed that Rick has some opinions on the state of fixed freestyle right now that may or may not be pretty accurate depending on your point of view. I think they're pretty on point. He's been around for some time and he's still out there putting in work. This is 11 Questions with Rick Anderson:
1) Where you from? What do you do? How long you been riding…you know…the usual?
RICK: I grew up in the suburbs of Illinois, no job as of right now but i'm in school for photography with a commercial focus at Columbia College in Chicago. i've been riding for like 3 years i think.
2) You've been around since the early days of this fixed freestyle business. Best memory of the past few years?
RICK: The first Midwest Mayhem definitely holds a spot, but overall i think the road trips i went on with Kris and Antonyo when they still lived in milwaukee were the best. I say that probably because i don't see them anymore really, but the all city champs road trip was probably the best out of all of them.
3) I've noticed a lot of solid photos coming from your brain. How's that going?
RICK: Lately i've been putting in a lot more time, studying a lot of work, and practicing to further pin down a specific style. I think really enjoying the images i create is a new experience for me, and enjoying them because of the positive feedback i get from other people. I think its taken me a while to get a name out there, and shooting with bigger names helps to say the least. i don't think i'm all the way there in terms of technical understanding, especially when it comes to off camera lighting, but i'm certainly starting to produce work i'm personally stoked on.
4) A lot of your shots circle the blogs on the regs. Have a favorite shot or favorite rider to shoot?
RICK: I don't like to play favorites, but Tom LaMarche is probably the easiest to shoot with. If you've seen the photo i shot of him doing that 3 off the roof, what you probably don't know is that he did that, and landed it at least 3 separate times, purely for the sake of getting the right angle.
(here's that huge one of Tom from a bit ago that is too sick. )
5) There seems to be a lot of stuff going on in the game these days. Thoughts on the changing scene and where its going?
RICK: I think fixed gear is in a weird place personally. Some people think its going to just die out, but i think its proven ground in terms of it being legitimate time and time again. On the other hand, theres still little to no money in a lot of companies. People have to put out edits for scraps if anything, which puts a damper on content flow and overall motivation. Also, i'd quote Tom on this, but essentially the entire scene is on the west coast, primarily california. So i think its hard to maintain that validity as a sport when it only exists on one side of the country, its pretty crazy to me that theres only a few kids riding in places like New York City, or even here in Chicago. On top of that, there also seems to be very little coverage of the sport as of late, i think in its early days it was supported solely by the blogs, and John Watson seemed to have a heavy hand in the growth of the sport in that. But now theres only a handful of good photographers and videographers that have an interest in documenting the riding. in addition to "Coverage", Print publications, and Movies… In the day and age of the internet where hundreds of edits and internet zines are released a year, stuff like Death Pedal 2, and Cog Magazine stick out over all. In my opinion, That's the stuff that sticks in your head, tangible media definitely needs a bigger place in fixed gear. That all being said, i think it's still in its early stages and people are getting a lot better with each year, so right now i think theres some work to be done.
6) Now forget about everyone else…what do YOU see on the horizon?
RICK: Right now, just getting through school and travelling as much as i can. Eventually putting out a real edit is up there on the list.
(in case you were curious Rick can definitely put out a real edit. this one is fire and about a year old)
7) Any major shifts you think necessary to keep this thing we all love moving along?
RICK: Getting rid of stuff like Ride N Style. That stuff has it's place and it's called the X-games, fixed gear is not a spectacle sport, and the sooner we come to terms with that, the closer we are to legitimacy.
8) How about a top 5 riders killing it right now?
RICK: Everyone knows about dudes like Torey, Tom, Joe, Antonyo, etc. but i think the dudes that are definitely moving up are (in no specific order) Jackson Bradshaw, Murder B, Finn Zygowski, Sam Hanson, and that Jaoa dude. keep an eye out.
(one of my favorite shots of Antonyo blasting a quarter for Wrahw)
9) Now I know you prefer to be out shooting people out hitting spots…but you definitely still roll around. Drop a few tracks that you listen to to get stoked to ride?
RICK: Honestly i dont ride to music, i just enjoy the company of cruising with friends, thats kind of the idea of it right?
10) Everyone has a favorite edit. Hell there's usually a few. Anything that stands out in your mind as more solid than the rest?
RICK: For fixed gear as a whole, Shred Well, easily. But As of late, even though its slightly biased, i seriously think that edit with Antonyo and Elliot in Seoul was one of the best fixed freestyle edits ever. that being said, theres tons and i'm being forced to pick one, but in terms of style and innovation that edit sticks out, for this year at least.
(here's that bit from Unknown)
11) Favorite critter roaming this earth and why?
RICK: Blue Whale, no contest. they're the largest and the loudest animals on the planet and they're sweeter than puppy dogs.

agreed - in fact, i think the show is a lot more enjoyable now then when i was younger. it's a lot more subtle and nuanced than is commonly believed, especially in regards to, say, Andrea Barber's performance as Kimmy Gibler - a lot of really amazing undertones there. she brought it all together. i'm sure it's a matter of time before she's sitting across the stage from James Lipton. bottom line: it's not as straightforward a program as people assume.
Beautifully put. Beautifully put. And you're exactly right: On the surface, it's still the same show it always was. But if you really start to dig into it, you'll see that it's got this dark, seedy underbelly thing happening. It's kind of like those ****** Magic Eye 3D paintings that were all the rage in the mid-90's in that it works on multiple levels. And once it hits you, it ups the rewatchability factor exponentially. People always said that this show was a "family-friendly situation-comedy", whatever that means, but to me, it's more of a "family-friendly situation-tragedy," than anything else. And that's what keeps me coming back for more.
Everywhere You LookWhat ever happened to predictibility? The milkman, the paperboy, evening TV. Everywhere you look , everywhere you go (there's a heart). There's a heart A hand to hold onto. Everywhere you look , everywhere you go. There's a face Of somebody who needs you. Eveywhere you look, When you're lost out there and you're all alone, A light is waiting to carry you home, Everywhere you look. Everywhere you look.
I went out and bought Full House: The Complete Series Collection on DVD, and went through it, like, twice.
It's beautiful that we can celebrate both the return of Jedidefender and the life and works of the late Dave Coulier in the same thread.
I thought he died like 4 years ago
I cannot stand that show. To this day, my wife watches whenever it comes on TV, and I simply stand up & walk out of the room. I used to watch the show from time to time when it was on Primetime on ABC, but as I grew older, I hated the cheese of that show. It broke down to become the Olsen Show.The tragedy in the show that you guys speak of peeks my interest, but then I can't remember one episode dealing with that trajedy. Everyone was so gay (the happy definition) except for the predicatable "noe care about me..." misunderstanding. Before reading this, I couldn't have even told you what happened to the mother. All I remember are some of the fakest characters ever on TV. It was a family-friendly show, but should have come with a warning label for all the cheese layered on top of it.

|The History of Warren County Ohio
Part V. Biographical Sketches
Wayne Township
(Chicago, IL: W. H. Beers Co, 1882; reprint, Mt. Vernon, IN: Windmill Publications, 1992)

MRS. ELIZABETH HOEL, Waynesville, was born in Barnesville, Belmont Co., Ohio, July 9, 1842; is a daughter of Samuel P. Hunt, M. D., and Elizabeth (Thomas) Hunt, he a native of Pennsylvania and she of Belmont Co., Ohio. The grandfather, Seth Hunt, was a native of Pennsylvania, and a prominent and popular man of that day, and one who accumulated a large property, being quite wealthy at one time. Dr. Samuel P. was born June 4, 1802, and when young became a resident of Belmont Co., Ohio, where he, read medicine
under Dr. Hoover and became a practicing physician, of high character and popularity. He was a member of the convention called by Dr. Awl for the organization of the Ohio State Medical Association, which was ultimately merged into the " Ohio Medical Society," of which he is still a member; was elected one of the Vice Presidents of the society in 1860; was appointed a delegate to the American Medical Association at its meeting in Cincinnati, and again to its meeting at Louisville, in 1859. The Doctor was also appointed by the Legislature of Ohio as one of the State Medical Examiners to attend the commencement of the Ohio Medical College at Cincinnati, in March, 1862; and during the war, by order of the Sanitary Commission, went on board the steamer Tycoon to Memphis. Dr. Hunt located in Warren County in 1843, near where the town of Morrow now stands; was engaged as surgeon for the Little Miami Railroad Company, and performed the first case of surgery before the road was finished as far as Morrow, and retained this appointment till 1866, when he retired from practice and removed to Sterling, Ill., where he resided some eight or ten years; thence located in Richmond, Ind.; thence at Cincinnati, where he now resides, with two single daughters, in quiet retirement - now 79 years of age. Mr. and Mrs. Hunt were parents of eight children; six now survive - Thomas, Local Agent of the Canada Southern Railroad at Cincinnati; Eberle, Local Agent of same railroad at Lexington, Ky.; Elizabeth, Martha, Kate and Samuel (Assistant Superintendent of the Canada Southern Railroad). The subject of this sketch, the eldest daughter of Dr. Hunt, was united in marriage, Feb. 11, 1869, to Capt. William R. Hoel, a son of Edmond and Emiline Hoel. The father, Edmond Hoel, was an old and well-known Ohio River pilot. William Rion Hoel was born in Sharon, Butler Co., Ohio, March 7, 1824; after a short term at St. Xavier's College, in Cincinnati, he, at a very young age, went on board the steamer Congress to "learn the river," under instructions of his father. "The boy was father to the man" in this as in other instances, and such was his application and assiduity, that in the remarkably short time of eighteen months be was "standing watch" for himself. Young William followed the vicissitudes and hardships of piloting in those early days of Ohio River navigation with a persistence and continuity characteristic of him until he was complete master of his profession, and there was no break between him and his career as pilot until 1861, at which time the war began, and he entered the service, still a pilot, at St. Louis. This position was soon resigned for that of First Master on the iron-clad gunboat Cincinnati; then he became Executive Officer on the flagship Benton; then, when the Eastport was built, he- became Executive Officer of that vessel; then took command of the Pittsburg, and after this commanded the ram Vindicator, as A. V. L. Lieutenant Commander. For gallantry at Island No. 10, he was promoted to Lieutenant, and, after the fight at Grand Gulf Lieut. Hoel was made Lieutenant Commander, an honor never before conferred upon a volunteer in the whole previous history of the U. S. Navy. While in command of the Pittsburg, he gallantly led the fight at Grand Gulf. He afterward was assigned to the Vindicator, of which he retained command until the close of the war. It was at the famous running of the blockade, at Island No. 10, however, that Commander Hoel won his most conspicuous laurels for dauntless daring and executive ability. Those who were cotemporaries with the occurrences of those days will readily recall the heroic action; but later generations may require a brief description: On the morning of April 4, 1863, Commodore Foote began making preparations for running the blockade, and Commander H. Walker's vessel, the Carondelet, was chosen for the important duty. At that time Capt. Dick Wade was Executive Officer of the Carondelet, but Capt. Hoel volunteered to act in his stead on this occasion, saying to Capt. Wade, "You have a family, while I have none," and
|bales of hay was lashed to its side; coils of chain plank of a dismantled barge, cord-wood, etc., were also used for protection against the possible attacks of the enemy. An eleven-inch hawser was coiled around the pilot-house as high as the windows, and other precautions suggested by the circumstances were taken to guard the vessel during her perilous trip past the fortress. Mr. C. B. Boynton, in his sketches of "Service of the Navy," speaks of this remarkable achievement, which he styles, "a work which only bold. and brave men could perform," as follows: "At 10 o'clock the moon had gone down and the sky, the land and river were alike hidden in the black shadow of the thunder-cloud, which had now spread itself over all the heavens. The time seemed opportune for starting; the order was given; the lines were cast off, and, with her barge of hay on one side and another with coal on the starboard side, the gunboat rounded out heavily and slowly and laid her course down the river. In order to avoid the puffing sound of the high pressure engine, the escape steam was conducted into the wheel-house, where its harsh voice was muffled - a device which probably led to their discovery by the fire from the chimneys. For half a mile everything went smoothly and quietly, and all thought they might succeed in passing the batteries unobserved, when suddenly a bright steady flame rose several feet high from both chimneys, and for a moment the steamer appeared to be carrying aloft two immense torches to light her on her way. Her upper decks and all about her brightened for a moment in the red glare. Strange as it appears, what was deemed by all a very serious accident, which would bring upon them at once the enemy's fire, caused no movement in the hostile batteries. When nearly opposite the upper fort the chimneys again took fire, and then at once the sentinels there gave the alarm to the fort below. Signal rockets were sent up both from the mainland and the island, and a cannon shot came from Fort No. 2. It was evident that the alarm was now general. Not a shot, however, came from the upper battery, and this showed how thoroughly its dangerous guns had been silenced by the bold men who had landed and spiked them. This and the drifting away of the floating battery had much to do with the safety of the Carondelet. But one course was now possible for the officers of the gunboat. The vessel was at once put under a full head of steam, and was urged on at her utmost speed, for the rebels were now making swift preparations at every gun which could be brought to bear. She was exposed to the fire of forty-seven guns. The storm was then at its height, and its fearful character, which would have been dangerous at any other time, was welcomed as increasing the chances of escape. The darkness was so intense as to shut out earth and heaven alike, except as lighted for an instant by the lightning's glare, or the flame of the cannon. The gleam and roar of the guns of the batteries could scarcely be distinguished from the flash and the thunder of the cloud. The fires of heaven and earth were so mingled that none could tell whether the dock was shaken by the explosion above or the cannon below. The rain fell in the sweeping torrents of a summer shower. Shot and shell, and rifle and musket balls, sang, shrieked and roared around them, so as to be heard above the storm. Each flash of lightning revealed the rebels, loading, training and firing their guns as the boat came within range. The steamer could also be seen for a moment, but as she was moving swiftly with the current, it was nearly impossible to get her range, and it was evident that only a chance shot would strike her. Most of the shot and shell flew high above her, because the alterations of light and darkness were so rapid as to deceive the gunners in regard to the gunboat's position. She was much nearer to them than they thought, and they fired, therefore, at a wrong elevation. The boat was kept as close to the shore as she
|could safely run, where, indeed, it would have been difficult to depress their guns so as to strike her, even had she been plainly seen. At this point their greatest danger was not from the batteries. The current was not only rapid, but it shifted from side to side with the sharp curves of the stream, and bars ran out from either shore. The intense darkness prevented the pilots from knowing the exact position of the boat, and they could learn it only as they caught glimpses of the shore by the flashes of lightning. On the forecastle the lead was kept going and the depth of the water was constantly reported. Yet with every precaution, and in spite of watchfulness, the steamer was often in peril. It contributed largely to her safety that she had on board Capt. Hoel, First Master of the Cincinnati, who had been engaged in navigating the Mississippi for more than twenty years. This gentleman stood on the deck, exposed to the double shower of rain and bullets, and watching for each momentary revelation which the lightning made, gave directions for steering the boat. The gleam of the lightning, the frequent report of the soundings, and his intimate knowledge of localities, enabled Capt. Hoel to judge correctly, in the main, of the gunboat's position. Once, however, during the passage, she was in imminent danger of being lost. The steamboat and her barges presented, of course, a very large surface to the current, and this gave her occasionally a heavy sheer. In the darkness and the blinding rush of the storm, these could not always, on the instant, be noticed. Caught at one time by the swift stream, she was drifting toward a dangerous bar, where she would have grounded under the guns of the batteries, when a broad flash lit up the river, and it had hardly faded before the sharp, twice repeated, "hard-a-port" rang through the boat.. She obeyed her helm and regained the current just in time to save her. Three miles below, the floating battery, which had grounded there, fired a few harmless shots, and then the peril was over, and exulting cheers burst from the crew and the soldiers, signal guns were fired announcing their safety to the fleet above, and soon the gunboat rounded to at New Madrid, and was welcomed by cheers and bonfires, and every possible demonstration of joy." Capt. Hoel was. first married to Miss Mary Riley, daughter of Mr. Daniel Riley, of Cincinnati; the offspring of this marriage, which, although brief, was an exceedingly happy one, was one child, which died in infancy. In 1855, Capt. Hoel made a balloon. ascension with Mons. Godard. The aerial excursion started from Cincinnati and terminated at night, three miles south of Waynesville, on the farm of George E. Smith. Mr. Smith extended the hospitalities of his mansion to the stranded and more or less damaged sky navigators. Capt. Hoel, becoming infatuated, with the beauty and fertility of the Little Miami Valley, bought a farm two, miles east of Waynesville, which he christened " Kildere." In 1867, he formed one of a party who visited Europe and the Holy Land in the Quaker City. Capt Hunt[sic],by his last wife, Miss Elizabeth Hunt, had two children, Sarah Elizabeth, born Dec. 18, 1869, and Rion, born Sept. 15, 1871. For several years after the war he abandoned the river and devoted his time to improving: and beautifying his home, which he spared neither care nor generous expenditure of money to render such a place as his best conception of a home should be. Yet his active temperament could not endure the uninterrupted seclusion of rustic life for many years with out, at times, pining for the bustling career he had left behind him, and in 1877, being tendered the command of the Lighthouse Service, he accepted and was put in command of the Light-house steamer, Lily. At first his duty lay from Pittsburgh to New Orleans; but when the service was revised he plied between Pittsburgh and Cairo. Faithful service characterized his command in this as in all previous positions, and a material. reduction in the expenses of the Government was made by his judicious and economical management. This engagement was only terminated by death
|He died May 23, 1879, from the effects of a pistol shot. His home was a beautiful place; and there, in the smiles and caresses of his children, the austerities of his aquatic career dissolved as snow in the presence of sunshine; and no children were more fondly beloved and tenderly cared for than those who brightened and made merry his hilltop retreat. Capt. Hoel perished while yet in the prime of vigorous manhood, when it seemed he could have defied death in its most resistless form, while all his faculties and forces were at their zenith, and he will continue to be mourned as only heroes and kindly hearts can be lamented, by hosts of friends who honored him while living, and cherish and keep evergreen by their tears the laurels that bestrow his untimely grave. His dust lies beside that of his youthful bride and that of their infant child, in Spring Grove Cemetery. A handsome memorial window in St, Mary's Episcopal Church, Waynesville, bears this inscription: " In memory of a noble man: William Rion Hoel, one of the founders of this Church; died May 23, 1879." Mrs. Hoel still resides upon the home-place, where she has a beautiful location, on a high and pleasant elevation, with all the comforts and conveniences constituting a pleasant home and residence.

London, United Kingdom, 2011/03/18 - Frost & Sullivan GIL Conference's Transportation Track offers insight into emerging trends, business models, and effects on your organisation.
Frost & Sullivan is proud to host the annual Growth, Innovation and Leadership (GIL) conference, which brings together a global network of today's best thinkers, visionaries, and thought leaders to deliver fresh perspectives, innovative ideas, and practical solutions to accelerate growth. This year's conference is to be held at the Emirates Stadium, London on 17th and 18th May 2011, with the transportation track boasting a number of high profile speakers and panellists set to provide executive insights into the transportation industry.
'Intelligence-on-the-go' will be the focus of the track, providing an insight into fully integrated, multi-modal solutions and new business models for public transport, and specifically considering the role that High Speed Rail, mobility integrators, and hybrid powered buses can play in tomorrow's transportation networks. The conference is a Must Attend for individuals and companies looking to generate, evaluate and implement actionable strategies in their market place.
The CEO 360 Degree Perspective on the Global Transportation Industry
Introducing Frost & Sullivan's Transportation Track at GIL 2011 is Vice President and the Head of Automotive & Transportation, Franck Leveque. A recognised transportation expert, Franck is a member of the European Management team, driving consulting best practices and responsible for the expansion of the Transportation sector including Logistics, Rail & Urban Transport, and Intelligent Transport Systems.
With over $9,000 billion due to be invested in transport infrastructure over the next 20 years, the global transportation industry is poised for high growth and synergetic opportunities across a number of industry sectors. Franck will introduce GIL's transportation track by considering the role of the top 10 Mega Trends shaping the future of the transportation industry, the opportunities for technology and mobility companies offering multi modal and interoperable solutions, and associated emerging business models offering integrated mobility solutions.
From High Speed to High Convergence: Future Perspectives of Point to Point Mobility
The first keynote address to delegates at the GIL transportation track will consider the impact of High Speed Rail on integrated mobility solutions. In order to address this key transport phenomenon, Frost & Sullivan are pleased to welcome Martin Ertl, the Chief Innovation Officer of Bombardier Transportation, a global leading rail and transportation systems infrastructure provider. Martin is responsible for the global structuring and holistic innovation management, covering the whole innovation value chain and new business development.
Over 35,000km of new High Speed Rail track will be constructed globally by 2020. This level of growth will in turn fuel the rise and importance of associated support services such as Broadband, retail, and integrating other modes of transport to encourage take up of these high speed services.
Making the Connection: Vision for Fully Integrated and Smart Mobility Solutions
In order to demonstrate recent growth and examples of Integrated and Smart Mobility Solutions, IBM's Intelligent Transport Solutions Global Business Development Leader, John Rushton, will present the first of two growth stories to provide insights into this intriguing area of transportation, and the causal links to other industry sectors that are starting to alert investors beyond transportation.
Technology has helped cities devise fully integrated multi-modal public transport systems that are reliant on far more than just a single mode of transporting passengers and goods from point to point. It has enabled improvements across all modes of transport, from localised bus and train services to active travel (walking and cycling) for short commuting to car-based transport.
Development of Hybrid and Electric Buses for Public Transportation
Dr Mihai Dorobantu of Eaton Corporation will be presenting the second growth story of the GIL Transportation Track, considering the development of Hybrid and Electric buses. The Head of Eaton's Vehicle Technologies and Innovation Team, Dr. Dorobantu is responsible for the advanced R&D portfolio of Eaton's Vehicle Group. The key take-away for delegates is based around alternative power solutions in the transportation industry, and the new types of partnership required in order to realise this potential.
While the societal need for green transportation is self-evident today, the industry has yet to find commercially sustainable solutions. The high cost of alternative power solutions in the bus segment is the barrier to mass market penetration and the still elusive environmental returns. Economically sustainable solutions are in the intersection of technology, regulatory actions, emerging standards and financing actions, but a different technology focus and new partnerships are needed.
The Road Ahead: What are the New Business Models for Future Urban Transport?
In order to conclude the GIL Transportation Track 2011, an interactive panel debate will be held considering new business models that are developing within urban transportation, exploring the potential this could have on several sectors. The debate will be moderated by Franck Leveque, and provide delegates with the opportunity to gain insight from all of the track's speakers, in addition to other delegates, with regard to future urban transportation.
The panel will also include Hannes Rose, Research and Project Leader at Fraunhofer IAO, responsible for the "Mobility Innovation" competence team. Fraunhofer is Europe's largest application-oriented research organization, geared entirely to people's needs: health, security, communication, energy and the environment. Their focus is around shaping innovation and technology towards designing products, improving methods, and industrial techniques.
The remainder of the GIL conference focuses on the dynamics of growth, and various tools and processes you can use to grow your business. The event will allow you to uncover new opportunities for growth within your organisation, and identify structured processes you can leverage to achieve your growth goals, and key strategies you can employ. The conference concentrates on how you can manage innovation to drive sustainable growth within your organisation. With plenty of networking opportunities provided, there is also the opportunity to develop relationships with fellow thought leaders and innovators; essential in delivering fresh perspectives and practical solutions for your business.

Sounders FC midfielder Brad Evans was well into an explanation of his mentality returning from an injury and reintegrating himself into the team when he let out a long sigh.
"I just want to play," Evans said, summing up everything he had just covered in his 72-second soliloquy in just five words.
Evans has missed just two matches with the knee injury he suffered in the U.S. Open Cup against the Portland Timbers on July 9, but they have been big ones for Seattle. The first was a 2-0 win in league play over the Timbers and the other was a 3-0 loss. In both occasions, Evans was pained to have to watch from a distance, rather than being a part of the fun in victory and trying to contribute to a turnaround in defeat.
"Brad always wants to play. He always wants to be in there. He always wants to be part of the team and part of the group," said Sounders FC Head Coach Sigi Schmid, who got his captain back in training this week as Seattle prepares to face the San Jose Earthquakes on Saturday. "Having him out there just gives another quality player for us on the field."
Evans is in his sixth season with Sounders FC and has 124 career appearances for the Rave Green. This season, he has played 12 matches, playing all across the backline in addition to his more customary midfield roles.
Now, the 29-year-old veteran is working his way back into the team as Sounders FC enters a stretch in the schedule that will see Seattle play eight matches in 34 days.
Coming off of a disappointing loss to the Galaxy, Evans said that the natural reaction would be to try and force the issue, but getting back to the basics is usually the right answer in times of trouble.
"Maybe if you're younger you want to step in and make an immediate difference. But I think the reality is that we're going to play good soccer," Evans said. "When I'm coming into the team, if I happen to start, then it's just playing my game. That comes a little easier now. Once guys are switched on, it's just that extra five or ten yards that would have made the difference in the last game."
Even with the loss to the Galaxy, Seattle still holds the top spot in the MLS Supporters' Shield standings with a 12-5-2 record.

Community radiologists give widely different interpretations of the same mammogram, according to a study supported by the Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality (HS10591). In fact, younger, more recently trained radiologists had two to four times more false-positive readings (diagnosing possible cancer when there was none) than older radiologists. This finding from a real-world community setting bolsters similar evidence from earlier studies on radiologists' variability using test sets of mammograms.
In the current study, Joann G. Elmore, M.D., M.P.H., of the University of Washington School of Medicine, and her colleagues examined results from 24 community radiologists' interpretations of 8,734 screening mammograms from 2,169 women over an 8-½ year period. They found wide variation in how frequently different radiologists noted masses, calcifications, and other suspicious lesions. For instance, one radiologist did not observe any calcifications, while another radiologist noted calcifications in more than 20 percent of the films read.
The radiologists also varied widely in their diagnostic interpretations and recommendations for additional screens and biopsies. The rate of false-positive readings among the radiologists ranged from 2.6 percent to 15.9 percent. However, after adjustment for differences in patient, radiologist, and testing characteristics, the range of false-positive rates narrowed to 3.5 to 7.9 percent.
Women who were younger, were premenopausal, were using hormone replacement therapy at the time of the mammogram, had a family history of breast cancer, or had a previous biopsy were more likely to have a false-positive result. Also, more women who had mammograms in the 1990s were likely to have a false-positive result than women who had mammograms in the 1980s, perhaps due to the growing fear of malpractice litigation for delayed detection of breast cancer.
More details are in "Screening mammograms by community radiologists: Variability in false-positive rates," by Dr. Elmore, Diana L. Miglioretti, Ph.D., Lisa M. Reisch, Ph.D., and others, in the September 18, 2002 Journal of the National Cancer Institute 94(18), pp. 1373-1380.

Because of an increase in crop prices, Midwestern farmers may not qualify for the primary form of farm subsidy for years to come. As The Wall Street Journal's Scott Kilman points out, the market has done what decades of political wrangling couldn't: slash farm subsidies.
According to The Environmental Working Group, a Washington activist organization, 10% of farms receive 74% of the federal money.
Other types of subsidies not linked to market prices will continue, but even support for those are waning as restraining federal spending to curb the federal debt becomes center stage with both Congress and the White House.
America's main farm-subsidy program began in the 1930s Depression-era when 25 percent of Americans lived on farms.
Kilman notes that today, less than 1% of the population is in farming. And because the advances in farm equipment, farmers are able to work farms with much larger total acreage now than in decades past.
Kilman explains the original Depression-era subsidy program allowed Congress to establish a target price for certain crops, and when market prices dropped below that price, the government sent growers a check for the difference.
But current target prices are based on crop markets from the late 1970s until 2005, when corn averaged roughly $2 a bushel, and soybeans around $6.
Commodity prices are far too high now to qualify for payouts under the federal program's price support formula. Corn sells for about $7 a bushel, and Soybeans get $13 a bushel, both far above the subsidy program's target price, negating the price-support checks.
"We don't envision farmers here ever seeing a price-support check again," said Darrel Good, a University of Illinois economist. "It's the end of an era."
Kilman claims the USDA still ships billions of dollars annually to farmers for various other programs, such as payments for keeping highly erodible land in grass rather than row crops.
"It's pure profit to me, but I can't defend it when we're doing so well," said Tim Lenz, a farmer in Strasburg, Illinois, who is willing to forgo the $38,000 in fixed-price subsidies he receives annually for his 2,600 acre farm. Lenz just built a $200,000 sheet-metal "machine shed" last year that houses his tractors, two grain combines, and other equipment.
Instead of the federal government subsidizing large, corporate owned commodity producers receiving billions in taxpayer handouts, why not subsidize farmers' markets, and local organic growers so taxpaying citizens can purchase all or most of their food locally, and benefit from the Farm-to-Table Movement.

A charity which provides a "lifeline" to families of children with Down Syndrome is appealing for people in Bradford to back its bid for a prestigious National Lottery Award.
Down Syndrome Training & Support Service Ltd, based at the Pamela Sunter Centre in Bingley, has been named as one of seven UK finalists in the awards' education category for its 'Just Kids' project.
The project provides information, training and support for parents and professionals living and working with children with Down Syndrome, through a variety of different courses, activities, and intervention sessions.
Dr Wendy Uttley founded the support group in 2000 after her son Sam was born with the condition.
She said like many new parents of a baby with Down syndrome, she needed specialised help but was met with a lack of support and understanding from both professionals and her social circle.
With National Lottery funding, she developed the project into a valuable service offering practical, educational and emotional support.
"Over the years I have developed ten different training courses, many unique," said Dr Uttley.
"Without Lottery funding I would not have had the capacity or time to achieve this kind of output and success.
"I am very proud of our journey and the level of care we provide to families and professionals."
The charity teaches early years skills, such as literacy and numeracy, to children with down syndrome, as well as offering fun activities such as street dance, and professional training in areas such as speech therapy and signing.
It works with a database of more than 300 families, and about 200 education professionals.
Wendy Rhodes, the charity's events co-ordinator, said: "The charity has just grown and grown since it was started by Wendy (Uttley)
"She has so much energy for the cause, and is a massive inspiration to the rest of the staff.
"Getting into the top seven of more than 7,000 entrants is great news. Everyone has been very supportive and families who use the services have been passing the word on.
"A lot of the families who use our services say they are like a lifeline, and being recognised in the awards will really raise the profile of the charity and the work we do.
"It will also raise awareness that down syndrome children can be included, and achieve, in mainstream education and society."
The National Lottery Awards are an annual search to find the UK's favourite Lottery-funded projects, with winners in each category receiving £2,000 for their projects and the chance to appear at the star-studded BBC awards show.
The deadline for the public vote is midnight on July 23, and votes can be cast by phone on 0844 836 9680, or online at downsupportbradford.btck.co.uk/NationalLotteryAwards2014.

Wisconsin paid Wofford $500,000 to help the Badgers football team prepare for the Big Ten season, and it appeared to be worth every penny with UW's 44-14 victory being instructive in more than one way.
With six fumbles — three of which were lost — head coach Bret Bielema knows what he must focus on this week in practice for the upcoming Michigan State game.
On the other side of the ball, however, the Badgers showed they are more adept at handling option offenses, a major concern with Ohio State's Terrelle Pryor and Michigan's Rich Rodriguez's zone option scheme on the horizon.
"This is a totally different offensive structure than [we] have played, but they zoned in on it, you know they focused in on it," Bielema said. "When you are playing in the Big Ten — for instance Michigan State, they are going to run a different spread attack. … Their spread is totally different from Minnesota's and I don't even know what Purdue is going to run. In the Big Ten you have to focus in on the style of play your opponent has every week."
Wisconsin limited the Terriers potent ground game to 214 yards rushing and merely 259 yards of total offense along with forcing four turnovers. At the head of the attack was junior middle linebacker Culmer St. Jean, finishing with 15 tackles and two for a loss.
"I think the biggest thing that helped us was being disciplined and just trusting each other," St. Jean said. "In this type of offense you are always isolated one-on-one, so if you know the next man is going to do his job it's easier for you to do your job."
Along with a strong test for the defense, Wisconsin's passing game continued to click against Wofford. Utilizing starter Scott Tolzien in the first half and freshman Curt Phillips for most of the second half, the UW signal callers combined for 264 yards and two touchdowns. Though most of Phillips' damage came on the ground, the threat from two quarterbacks could prove difficult to defend in Big Ten play.
"You got [Garrett Graham] in there, you have [Lance Kendricks], you got some wide receivers. If we put the ball on the ground any more, maybe we will just go empty," Bielema said.
Leading the team with six catches for 70 yards and a touchdown was junior tight end Kendricks. After being highly touted by the coaches in fall camp, Kendricks had been nonexistent through the first two games. Breaking out against the Terriers, however, Kendricks gives UW the dual tight end threat they were hoping for.
"It was fun being able to get out there and make some plays," Kendricks said. "Especially before the Big Ten started."
Coming into the season, the one facet of the team thought to be rock solid was the running game. Three games into the schedule, however, and the ground game has yet to get on track.
Though all three running backs finished with over five yards per carry average, the four fumbles from the backs were another way the rush attack has stalled.
"I think it is [the running backs] that have to be on rhythm, they got to be on track," Bielema said. "We have to be clean in our footwork and obviously the exchange issue and ball security are at a premium. I really felt that we just have not found the full-fledged identity of what we can be up front there."
Taking advantage of extended playing time, freshman running back Erik Smith took 10 carries for 54 yards and pumped up the crowd on a 19-yard run. If either Brown or Clay fumbles against Michigan State, Smith could be likely to see playing time.
"[Erik] is into it, he is engaged, he has a lot of athletic ability," Bielema said. "There is just not much weight in those pants, so he gets bounced around a little bit. But he has got a different gear to him."
Qualifying for the most exciting play of an otherwise sloppy game would be freshman Chris Borland's blocked punt. With the Badgers sending ten men at the Terriers on fourth down, Borland was able to leap over the wedge and get his hand on the ball early in the second quarter. The ball rolled into the end zone where freshman David Gilbert was able to recover it for a touchdown.
"It was a good scheme," Borland said. "We had more guys than they could block from the left side on our punt block left, so they had one guy to block two … it was just me and the wedge. They back up a bit and most wedges try to stay firm. And when they backed up I just went over them."
With an attendance of 78,253, Camp Randall did not sell out for the first time in Bielema's tenure. Though it may be a reflection of a sub-par opponent, Bielema isn't worried going forward.
"The crowd out there today was outstanding," Bielema said. "I really felt they were engaged and I didn't notice any difference from that standpoint."
