Coker�s weekend climb in the Conference Carolinas Tournament for baseball was finally derailed � by rain.
But the Cobras still have a shot to win the tournament in their final appearance before leaving for another conference.
Coker defeated King 14-11 in Sunday�s first game, forcing a second winner-take-all matchup in the double-elimination tournament at Burlington Athletic Stadium.
But in the third inning of Sunday�s second game, play was suspended because of rain. Coker leads 1-0, with the teams scheduled to resume play at 1 p.m. today.
The winner of the Division II conference receives an automatic bid to the NCAA Tournament�s Southeast Regional on May 16-19.
Second-seeded Coker (33-14) won twice Saturday in elimination games.
In Sunday�s first game, Coker received a go-ahead grand slam by Ernie Kirkwood in the fourth inning after Shea Bell belted a solo home run earlier.
The Cobras led 12-6 after a five-run sixth. Kirkwood added a two-run single in the eighth.
Freshman Alex Hernandez (5-2) was the winning pitcher, throwing two innings of relief. Brinley Griffin drove in three runs and Zach Loraine provided four hits and two RBI.
Third-seeded King is 31-19.

Additive manufacturing has captured industry's imagination, but even as the first parts appear inside jet engines, the technology's possibilities are only just being realized. As researchers experiment with new materials and optimized designs made possible by 3-D printing, the potential scale of the revolution in manufacturing is becoming clearer.
EADS Innovation Works and EOS, a leader in direct metal laser-sintering, have shown that replacing a cast-steel nacelle hinge bracket on an Airbus A320 with an additively manufactured titanium part, optimized to place metal where there are loads (see photos), cuts raw-material consumption 75%, saves 10 kg per shipset and reduces energy and emissions in production, operation and end-of-life recycling.
The challenge is to think beyond current materials and designs. To that end, Oak Ridge National Laboratory (ORNL) in Tennessee is placing thousands of 3-D printers in U.S. schools to give future designers and engineers experience with the technology. Already the lab has helped local high schools in the First Robotics competition—including building the first all-additive robot. Beginning this year with 250 machines, the lab plans to place 3,000 printers next year, then 4,000 and finally 28,000 so every high school in First Robotics has one.
Available desktop 3-D printers are being tested at ORNL to assess their capabilities. The lab's goal is to move from prototyping to production and enable distributed, "democratized" manufacturing where 3-D printers are a source of revenue for everybody, says Lonnie Love, group leader for automation, robotics and manufacturing—a high-tech return to the cottage industries that predated the Industrial Revolution.
Looking beyond consumer machines, ORNL is pushing the capabilities of additive manufacturing in the materials, complexity and scale of components that can be printed. The lab is completing perhaps the most complex all-additive design yet: a two-armed, neutrally buoyant underwater robot for the Office of Naval Research. Channels for hydraulics and wiring, cylinders and cams for pistons actuating the joints are all integrated inside the printed metal arms. There are no external pipes or wires. "We are pushing the envelope in additive manufacturing and robotics with this," says Love.
ORNL, meanwhile, is working with additive-manufacturing equipment suppliers such as Arcam to expand the technology to new metals and larger parts, including laser-sintering of Inconel 718, a high-temperature superalloy used in turbine blades. But some of the most exciting work involves printing of reinforced plastics. Current 3-D-printed polymer parts are low-strength, and can be used for ducting but not load-carrying components. Now the lab has developed a way to infuse reinforcing carbon fibers into the raw material to print parts that can carry loads.
At 5-7 micrometers, conventional chopped carbon fibers are too thick to squeeze into the 0.25-in.-dia. thermoplastic filament that is fed into fusion-deposition molding (FDM) machines. ORNL has developed a way of producing fibers less than 500 nanometers in diameter.
When chopped, these nanofibers are small enough to mix into the FDM raw material, but have a length-to-diameter ratio high enough to achieve the reinforcing effect. Strengths on par with 6000-series aluminum are possible, says Chad Duty, group leader for deposition science and technology.
Infusing reinforcing fibers into raw material is a key to scaling up 3-D printing to large parts—60-100 ft. in size—for aerospace. ORNL calls this broad-area additive manufacturing, and the lab has been working with Lockheed Martin and an equipment manufacturer to develop the capability, initially to produce low-cost tooling but ultimately to print structures such as the wings of a large unmanned aircraft.
Large printed parts can warp because areas with different thicknesses cool at different rates—a core technical challenge with additive manufacturing. Adding 13% by volume of chopped carbon fiber to the thermoplastic-pellet feedstock provides twice the strength and four times the stiffness, and stops parts-warping as they cool, says Love.
As a next step, ORNL is working with an equipment supplier to build the prototype of a single machine that will print plastic parts, machine them to final shape and wrap them in re-inforcing carbon-fiber tows to produce large structural components.
"We work with the equipment makers, because the OEMs want this technology throughout their supply base," says Craig Blue, director of ORNL's advanced manufacturing program.

All of the books being donated to the Hawaii Karate Museum Collection at the Hamilton Library of the University of Hawaii are boxed and ready to go. There are over 1,000 books and over 1,000 journals, plus many multimedia items (video, DVDs, film). Due to the schedule of the university's freeze-dry facility (all the books have to be freeze dried to eliminate any mold or mildew), the donation will probably take place the third week of this month (October 2008).
If you have any Karate or martial arts books that you would like to include in the collection at the time it is established, please contact me:
Hawaii Karate Museum
98-211 Pali Momi Street, Suite 640
Aiea, Hawaii 96701 USA
e-mail: email@example.com
Time is short, but I can still process donations received in the next two weeks. Older books (in English or Japanese) are especially desired. We will continue to list all books and donors at our Rare Karate Book Collection website.
Also, I wanted to let people know that once the donation is made and processed, and the books are indexed (an expensive process since so many books are in Japanese), books in the collection will qualify for inter-library loans, both in the United States and internationally. This means that Karate researchers and enthusiasts around the world will have access to some of the rarest Karate materials.
Thank you very much to everyone around the world who has donated Karate books to the Hawaii Karate Museum and supported our efforts.
Whats next? Even more work to preserve the history of Karate in Hawaii and the world.

How to Train Your Dragon (US - BD RA)
Gabe is utterly charmed by one of the best films of the year on Blu-ray disc...
For generations the Vikings of Beck Island have done battle with various species of dragons, which raid their valuable sheep supply. Town chief Stoick the Vast (Gerard Butler) spends most of his time battling dragons, and his down time being disappointed in his nebbish, very un-warrior-like son Hiccup (Jay Baruchel). Hiccup is full of innovative manners of making the dragon battle more efficient, but instead he develops a tragic reputation for being destructively clumsy. Determined to capture the unseen and terrifying Night Fury, Hiccup constructs a harpoon/net contraptions, and actually succeeds in injuring one the species. But when the time comes to kill the creature Hiccup realizes how gentle the dragons can be, and struggles to convince the village that they may be fighting for no reason.
I'd heard great things, and had my personal hype meter stretched to unrealistic length for How to Train Your Dragon. It feels so good to have such expectations fulfilled as a jaded filmgoer. I enjoyed Kung Fu Panda and Monsters Versus Aliens very much, which means the studio has now hit a hat-trick of genuine successes following over a decade of ordinary and/or bad product. The film continues the proud, boring Dreamworks Animation love of the underdog, but this might be their most original working concept since the studio's inception, even if the daddy issues, definitions of manhood, and love concurring all are all well treaded narrative tales. Still, the story takes unexpected turns, and has an unstoppable trajectory. There's also some well veiled social commentary that doesn't overstep into the more prominent action and comedy. The mix of successful elements may very well grow in future viewings to a genuine classic family film, that isn't afraid to tug at the heart strings and kick you in the guts a few times along the trip.
The usual Dreamworks insistence on pop-culture references, and easy bodily function jokes are kept in check, and used to good effect when called for (like the nerd that knows all the various dragon fact as if memorized DnD card). The character animation is simply glorious, especially in the nearly wordless sequence that sees the dragon finally accepting Hiccup. The dragon's design is simple and black, but so much is said by those big green cat eyes, and that twitching head. The humans designs are sharp too, taking advantage of the animated medium, and not trying to create boring, pseudo-photo realistic look of the Shrek characters. Great, admittedly typecast performances from Gerard Butler, Jay Baruchel, and Craig Ferguson certainly don't hurt. But the production design, and background scope may be the film's most enduring success visually speaking. I actually regret never seeing the film in 3D, even though I'm relatively adverse to the practice (I get headaches).
Welcome to your latest reference quality Blu-ray disc. I'm sure there'll be another one next week, but How to Train Your Dragon has just about everything in the world going for it on a visual level. The dragons themselves come in just about every colour in the spectrum, and each hue is easily discernable even in the widest, busiest action shots. The Vikings costumes and stray hairs are impossibly sharp without haloing or jagged artefacts. Skin tones reveal subtle imperfections and realistic blemishes. Overall there's a nice balance of texture, light, and colour that never oversteps into hyper-real. It's always clear that this is a cartoon, no matter how dramatically lit the whole thing is. I honestly can't find anything wrong with the entire 1080p image, which leaves this a bit shorter a paragraph than I'd been aiming for.
What are
youlooking for in a DTS-HD Master Audio track? Clear, centered dialogue, with natural ambient effects? Check. Full-on, multi-channel attacks? Check. Huge LFE presence without too much throbbing? Check. The reference moments come conveniently at the top and bottom of the film. The initial attack on the island of Berk is a wonderful mix of relative silence and startling noise, as we're introduced to all the different noises created by all the different species of dragons, from within and without the relative safety of the wooden houses. The delayed sonic boom of the Night Fear's attack is the cherry on top. The final battle is such a massive sonic bass overload it consistently threatens to overpower the dialogue and score, but the levels remain in near perfect synchronicity, pushing and pulling when needed.
The extras begin with a commentary track with directors Chris Sanders and Dean DeBlois, and producer Bonnie Arnold. It's not an incredibly exciting track, but it's engaging, and full of information, including the news of super Cinematographer Roger Deakins being a technical cinematographer on the film. There's a lot of time wasted on making sure to thank everyone involved, but there are some good lessons of scriptwriting and editing. The commentary is supported by a pop-up trivia track that surprisingly doesn't overlap the discussion very much. Another pop-up/commentary option is the 'Animator's Corner', which features filmmaker's and actors interviews, design, storyboards, and animatics.
'Legend of the BoneKnapper Dragon' is a short film included with both the Blu-ray and DVD releases. This cute mini-movie shows us a bit where the two societies have come since the climax of the film proper, and tells a fun little story in-keeping with the film's major themes and morals. Hopefully this is where we can leave the series.
'Soaring Special Features' begin with 'Viking Sized Cast' (11:40, HD), your usual EPK ad for the vocal talent behind the characters, including cast choices, and footage of the actors speaking their lines. 'The Technical Artistry of Dragon' (10:10, HD) kind of speaks for itself, and delves into the technical aspects of state of the art animation. Unfortunately this kind of thing usually bores me, but should give some good information for the technically minded out there, especially those with a love of digital fire effects. I was most interested in the design of the dragons themselves, which was all too brief. 'The Story Behind the Story' (7:40, HD) takes a look at the original youth books, and what drew the producers to it, including amusing interviews with author Cressida Cowell. There are also three deleted scenes, presented in storyboard form only, each with an introduction from co-writer/director Chris Sanders. Frankly none of these would've been out of place in the final cut. This brings us to the ads that were made especially to coincide with the 2010 Winter Olympics (all HD), under the menu 'Racing for the Gold'. These include sky jumping, snowboarding, medals, speed skating and bobsled.
The rest of the features are of the kid friendly variety including 'How to Draw a Dragon' (10:50, HD), 'Your Viking Profile' quiz, a Dreamworks Animation Jukebox, and under 'Keep Out' is a Megamind trailer, DVD release trailers, and trailers for the How to Train Your Dragon and Kung Fu Panda World games.
Here's my Rotten Tomatoes pull quote (assuming you didn't know I'm not quoted there) ' How to Train Your Dragon is the feel-good epic fantasy adventure Avatar promised it would be, and never delivered upon.' This film begs repeat viewings, and I could have watched a 30 minute longer version. The film leaves the audience buzzing with energy like any great action film, it pushes the right emotional buttons, it makes you laugh out loud, and no element overrides any other. The only negative is that I'm sure the runaway popularity will lead to a series of deteriorating sequels. The Blu-ray is reference level on both visual and audio levels, and features a fair smattering of behind the scenes information. All together this is a must buy for animation fans and families alike.
*Note: The images on this page are not representative of the Blu-ray image quality.

STATEN ISLAND, NY -- A judge in Jefferson County Circuit Court will consider today the case brought against the abortion facility in Birmingham once known as New Woman All Women, for operating outside the bounds of the law.
"Neither this facility nor any other one in the nation that performs abortions should consider itself above the law," said Fr. Frank Pavone, National Director of Priests for Life. "Abortion supporters can't have it both ways. If you want a procedure to be legal, then carrying it out has to be done according to the law. I know Diane Derzis, who runs this facility, and have met with her, and I appeal to her not only to abide by the law, but to get out of the abortion industry altogether."
Priests for Life is the nation's largest Catholic pro-life organization dedicated to ending abortion and euthanasia. For more information, visit www.priestsforlife.org.

Retiro, Buenos Aires Travel Guide
Retiro Summary
- Transportation hub, making it easy to get in and get out
- Home to Florida Street, lined by upscale shops
- Numerous luxury hotels
- Beautiful Plaza San Martin is surrounded by historic mansions
- Business-friendly area
- Lots of traffic
- Few major tourist attractions
What It's Like
Retiro is the transportation hub of Buenos Aires. Often, "transportation hub" is synonymous with gritty, depressing, and traffic-filled, but this is not the case with Retiro (except the traffic-filled part). The neighborhood is home to upscale shops, luxury hotels, and the Plaza San Martin park, surrounded by beautiful historic mansions (many of which now serve as embassies).
Overlapping with the Central Business District, Retiro caters to business travellers with its easy access to transportation and its many businesses and government agencies. However, tourists come to the area to peruse the Florida Street, a pedestrian street with high-end shops and numerous tango studios. Though there are not many other tourist atttractions in the area, it is home to two museums (one being the renowned Museum of Modern Art) and many tourists enjoy touring the restored mansions.
Though Retiro is a relatively safe neighborhood, "Villa 13" -- a shanty town -- should be avoided.
Where To Stay
There are few budget options in Retiro; instead, numewrous luxury hotels surround Plaza San Martin as the area caters to wealthy business travellers.

- Should incorporate the wording:- SportMonitors.com.au (Note the capital S and Capital M can be used)
- Must be Vibrant, Bright and multi coloured.
- Can still be simple in design, but should jump out of the page.
- A Heart and/or heart rate could be prefferred suggestions, but am open to other out of the box ideas.
- 3D character type graphics has an early appeal.
- Centered around Exercise and Health.
- I like the Monopoly character type graphics (For Logo purposes, just the man, not the background) Refer
http://www.hasbro.com/games/kid-gam…88F2DB0C6B This type of 3D image that jumps off the page, rejigged to Sport/Exercise/Heart Rate etc. (ie. Not Overweight and loaded with money)
- Too Cutsy. Logo should ooze of strength and fitness. Not weakness.
- Monotone design
- Do Not want a Cycling centric idea, It should be more towards Exercise and perhaps Running.

After each game the Orlando Magic play, rookie guard Victor Oladipo attempts to watch a recording of that game from start to finish. He hopes to identify things he could've done better and then apply those lessons to the next time he steps onto the court.
His review of the Magic's game Wednesday night against the Utah Jazz must've been unpleasant. Not only did the Magic lose a winnable game, but he endured his worst shooting night so far as a pro, making just one of the 12 shots he attempted.
"You've got to let it go, especially in this league," Oladipo said Friday. "If you let it build up and you let it stay with you, you're still not going to play well the next game, I don't think. So, that game has come and gone. I'm not really worried about it. I'm just worried about the next game."
Oladipo must strike a delicate balance — the same balance all NBA players must seek. On one hand, it's crucial for him to confront any weaknesses in his own game so he can improve. On the other hand, he can't dwell on rough games too much because doing so could erode his self-confidence.
Oladipo is learning just how difficult it is to be efficient on the professional level, but the truth is that he's been more successful as a shooter than most of his rookie brethren.
Through Thursday's games, only 12 players chosen in the first round of the 2013 NBA Draft were shooting at least 40.0 percent from the field so far this season.
Oladipo is shooting 40.0 percent.
Although his shooting percentage doesn't appear particularly impressive at first glance, it needs to be put into perspective. No other rookie has played as many minutes as he has, and most other rookie guards are struggling with their shooting.
On Saturday night, the Magic will host the Sacramento Kings and will face the Kings' rookie shooting guard, Ben McLemore, for the first time. McLemore was widely considered the draft's best shooter, but he had made just 35.5 percent of his shots through Thursday.
Oladipo, McLemore and their fellow rookie perimeter players are learning just how difficult it is to succeed in the NBA.
"I think it's a little bit more than shot selection," Magic coach Jacque Vaughn said. "I think you realize how long [and] athletic the guys who are guarding you are. Shots that you used to get in college — it's a little bit more difficult for you to get those shots now."
Even layups can be difficult, as Oladipo has learned.
On Sunday in Oklahoma City, the Magic faced an elite shot-blocker, the Thunder's Serge Ibaka. One night later, the Chicago Bulls' Joakim Noah patrolled the paint. On Wednesday night, Jazz big man Derrick Favors defended the rim.
Oladipo has had his shot blocked 38 times this season — with 31 of those blocks occurring within 5 feet of the basket — according to the NBA's official statistics database.
Through Thursday, only five players have had their shot blocked more often than Oladipo: Evan Turner, Greg Monroe, David Lee, Nikola Pekovic and DeMarcus Cousins.
"I was always getting my shot blocked when I was first in college," Oladipo said.
"You've got to learn to adjust to it. I'm just trying to learn right now."
It can take a while.
Magic swingman Arron Afflalo can attest to that.
"In maybe my fifth year or fourth year, I really started understanding the dynamics of how to be a little more deceptive about the things that I do," Afflalo said. "Obviously, he's a lot more athletic and gifted than I am, so it's going to probably be even more of a process for him to learn not to depend on that so much and really pick his spots."
Oladipo receives plenty of advice.
In his pregame shooting drills, he works with Magic assistant coach for player development and former NBA swingman Laron Profit.
Vaughn's assistant coaches often review film individually with players. On Thursday, Vaughn and Oladipo reviewed game film together.
During that discussion, Vaughn asked Oladipo about his thought process at specific points in the game and what Oladipo should keep in mind the next time he faces similar situations.
"It helps a lot when he sits down with me and we pinpoint things," Oladipo said.
"It helps me a lot because I can fix them, and I'm seeing it from a head-coach perspective and also my perspective from watching by myself. It's always good to have obviously his perspective because of what he's done. He's played in the league. He's played this position."

Where and how to vote if you're in college out of state or from another state
When the Nov. 6 General Elections roll around, college is still in session and many students may not be in their home state.
If you're a student from Delaware attending college out of state or a student from another state attending college in Delaware, you're vote can still count.
The Delaware Department of Elections allows for students out of state to cast an absentee ballot and for those making Delaware a temporary home while continuing their education in the first state to have a voice.
Here are five things to know about voting if you are a college student in or from Delaware or the parent of a college student who is living out of state:
Many college students vote using an absentee ballot. Those who are registered to vote in Delaware already and are unable to vote at their designated polling place should submit an affidavit as soon as possible request an absentee ballot for the general election. The application can be found online at the Department of Election's website. The Department of Elections encourages students to complete this process as soon as possible- as soon as the students' address for the fall semester is known. It is suggested that an absentee ballot be submitted at least 30 days before the election.Students who are from another state but are living in Delaware for college can register to vote here if they meet a certain criteria. The would-be voter has to show proof that they intend to make Delaware their home by presenting either a Delaware driver's license, a bill with their Delaware address on it, or any other document where the student lists a Delaware address as where they live.Students who are from Delaware but are attending college in a different state can register to vote online if they have not yet done so. This can be done by using the State of Delaware's online registration tool or by mail. The deadline to register for the General Election is the fourth Sunday before the event.Voters receive a card in the mail designating their polling place, which is generally in the area that their permanent address is. Delaware citizens can submit absentee ballots if they cannot make it to the polling place or can vote in person at the Department of Elections. Ballots are generally available at the Department of Elections 30 days before the primary election. In-person voting can be done up until noon the day before the election and absentee ballots must be mailed no later than four days before an election.Students who are attending college in Delaware but still claim their home state as their home should contact the appropriate persons in their home state or local election jurisdiction. Information on the other 49 states can also be found on line. Out-of-state students are also encouraged to give themselves at least 30 days to cast an absentee ballot before the General Election.

For women with threatened preterm labor, maintenance with nifedipine to stop contractions does not improve perinatal outcomes, a randomized trial showed.
Through 6 months after delivery, the rate of perinatal death or serious morbidity was 11.9% in the nifedipine group and 13.7% in the placebo group (RR 0.87, 95% CI 0.53 to 1.45), according to Carolien Roos, MD, of Radboud University Nijmegen Medical Centre in the Netherlands, and colleagues.
Rates of all of the components of the composite endpoint were similar in the two groups as well, the researchers reported in the Jan. 2 issue of the Journal of the American Medical Association.
"Although the lower-than-anticipated rate of adverse perinatal outcomes in the control group [13.7% versus 25%] indicates that a benefit of nifedipine cannot completely be excluded, its use for maintenance tocolysis does not appear beneficial at this time," they wrote.
When threatened preterm labor occurs before 34 weeks of gestation, delaying delivery for 48 hours with tocolytic agents allows for the administration of antenatal corticosteroids to improve fetal maturation and for the transfer of the mother to a center with a neonatal intensive care unit (NICU). Various agents, including nifedipine, magnesium sulfate, ritodrine, and atosiban, can be used for initial tocolysis.
Use of the agents for maintenance tocolysis beyond the first 48 hours, however, has not been shown to improve pregnancy and perinatal outcomes.
Maintenance tocolysis with nifedipine has been evaluated in three small trials, but all focused on the endpoint of prolonging pregnancy and none was powered to evaluate the effect on perinatal outcomes.
To help fill that gap, Roos and colleagues initiated the APOSTEL-II trial, which was performed in 11 perinatal units and included women with threatened preterm labor at 26 weeks to 32 weeks and 2 days of gestation who had not yet delivered following 48 hours of tocolysis and a completed course of corticosteroids. The initial tocolytic was atosiban in 40% and nifedipine in the rest.
The trial included 406 women (mean age 30) who were randomized to maintenance tocolysis with oral nifedipine 80 mg/day (given in 20-mg tablets every 6 hours) or placebo for 12 days.
Pregnancy was prolonged to a similar degree in both groups -- by a median of 30 days in the nifedipine group and 32 days in the placebo group (P=0.85). About two-thirds of the births in each group occurred before 37 weeks of gestation.
Birth weight did not differ between the two groups. About 40% of the babies in each group required a stay in the NICU lasting a median of 10 days.
The primary outcome of adverse perinatal outcomes included perinatal death, chronic lung disease, neonatal sepsis, intraventricular hemorrhage greater than grade 2, periventricular leukomalacia greater than grade 1, or necrotizing enterocolitis.
Through 6 months after delivery, the rate of adverse perinatal outcomes was not significantly different between the two groups, consistent with previous studies evaluating maintenance tocolysis with other agents, including beta-mimetics, oxytocin antagonists, and magnesium sulfate.
"Apparently, symptomatic treatment of uterine contractions with any uterine relaxant is ineffective when used as maintenance therapy," the authors wrote.
The lack of effect was consistent in various subgroup analyses.
Maternal outcomes were largely similar in the two groups, although the average blood loss was significantly greater in the nifedipine group among the women who were still taking study medication during delivery (432 versus 307 mL, P=0.045).
The authors said the study was limited by lower statistical power stemming from the lower-than-expected rate of the primary outcome in the control group, which "can be explained by improved neonatal care over the last decades and differences with the studies used to estimate this anticipated rate."
Also, they noted, the study included both singleton and multiple births.
The trial was funded by ZonMw, the Netherlands Organization for Health Research and Development Healthcare Efficiency Program grant.
Roos reported that she had no conflicts of interest. Her co-authors reported relationships with CSL Behring and various Dutch training institutions.

Published January 08, 2015
An anesthesiologist working for the family of an Ohio inmate put to death during a prolonged execution says the prisoner experienced pain and suffering before he lost consciousness.
California doctor Kent Diveley (DYV'-lee) says neither of the drugs used to execute Dennis McGuire can be relied on to produce a rapid loss of consciousness and death.
Diveley said in a report released Tuesday by attorneys for McGuire's family that the execution was not humane from a medical perspective.
A federal civil rights lawsuit filed by McGuire's adult children alleges McGuire "suffered needless pain and suffering" during the Jan. 16 execution. McGuire snorted and gasped several times during the record 26 minutes it took him to die.
The state prisons agency concluded in April there was no evidence McGuire experienced pain.

They are coming off a 60-58 loss on the road at Campbell. They will attempt to rebound Saturday afternoon at 1 when the North Florida Ospreys visit Allen Arena. The Ospreys hold a 7-1 series advantage over the Lady Bisons. The last time the two teams met the Lady Bisons fell 75-64 Jan. 16 in Jacksonville.
But the Ospreys, 6-15 overall, 3-9 in the conference, are 0-11 on the road this season. They lost at USC Upstate 65-59 in their last outing. The Lady Bisons are 4-19, 2-11 in the A-Sun.
"They jumped on us early down there," Lady Bisons coach Frank Bennett said. "They were shooting something like 78 percent the first eight minutes of the game.
"They are pretty athletic. We have to rebound and keep them out of transition."
The Ospreys are led by sophomore guard Brittany Kirkland with 14.4 points per game. Senior forward Arlande Cherizol leads in rebounds with 8.2 per game. She grabbed 17 rebounds against the Lady Bisons in the last game between the two teams.
"We have to do a good job of containing their guards," Bennett said. "We have to keep their big players off the boards."
Bennett is also expecting a strong defensive effort from North Florida.
"They may very well play a number of different defenses," Bennett said. "They typically do.
"We have to recognize when they make changes. We have to execute our offense, take care of the ball and get the shots we want. It would be a nice thing for us to make a few shots."
The Lady Bisons are led by junior guard Jenna Bartsokas with 12.2 points per game. Sophomore center Brittany Duerk is averaging 5.9 rebounds per game.
"In the last 10 days I can see clear improvement in our defensive technique and effort," Bennett said. "I can see clear improvement in our pushing and moving the basketball.
"We are not always hitting the shots. But we are getting quality looks. We are seeing improvement here and there."
Bartsokas is the only Lady Bisons player averaging in double figures, but several players have scored in double figures in games this season.
"We don't have one go-to player," Bennett said. "We have to do things by committee."
In the loss to North Florida last month that is exactly how the Lady Bisons scored. Five different players finished in double figures led by sophomore guard Anna Bowers with 13, Bartsokas with 12, freshman forward Hannah Phillips and sophomore forward Chelsea Burroughs with 11 each and freshman center Chelsea McMeans with 10.
"Jenna has been our most consistent scorer," Bennett said. "But Anna Bowers has started shooting the ball better."

Author Notes: The fava beans and sugar snap peas at my local farmers market last week were incredible. I went bananas and bought huge bags of each. With the favas, I knew I'd make some crostini, and last night my hubby and I ate just that slathered atop slices of oiled, toasted baguette. Divine.
I was less sure about what direction to take with the sugar snaps. My sons and I like to eat them raw, but I also wanted to turn some of them into a more substantial dish, and a summery salad sounded great. This one is hearty, creamy, crunchy and savory, and I like the way the flavors complement each other yet shine individually. We think it's pretty great! —em-i-lis
Serves: 2-4
slices bacon
cups sugar snap peas, washed and trimmed
tablespoons grade B maple syrup
large clove garlic, minced
freshly ground black pepper
mint leaves, sliced into ribbons
1x1x2" chunk of feta, crumbled
- Fill a 4 quart pot 1/2 - 3/4 full with water and then add about a tablespoon of salt. Set to boil. In a 10" skillet set over medium-high heat, cook the bacon until crisp. Remove the bacon to a paper-towel lined plate to drain. Pour out from the skillet all but 1 tablespoon of the drippings; set the skillet and drippings aside.
- When the water is boiling, add the sugar snap peas and cook 1-2 minutes until crisp-tender. Drain and run cold water over the peas until they're cool. Set the skillet with the drippings over medium heat, and when warm, add the maple syrup, garlic and 1/2 teaspoon salt. When the syrup has dissolved and the garlic has softened some, add the cool sugar snaps to the skillet, tossing to combine everything and warm through, just about a minute.
- Pour everything from the skillet into a mixing bowl, scraping out any good bits that have stuck to the bottom, and add the mint and crumbled feta. Sprinkle with another 1/4 tsp of salt and a generous few grinds of black pepper. Crumble the reserved 4 bacon strips over the top and toss to combine. You want the feta to "melt" some; its creaminess plus the maple-bacon pan sauce makes the dressing here. Check the seasoning and add more salt if needed.
- Turn out onto a serving platter and enjoy!

thh prairie i was at the liouse of an old scotch ! man a year or two ago said an old da j kotan oeveral of us yonng people were sitting ut a table playing carls out j side a blizzard was howling the old | man said i think i will go out to the shed and see how the stock are don't von go i replied '• i guess i will i looked over my shoulder and said see here old num don't von try that you may stay right here 1 you may think this was considererable fuss to make as the sheds were not over four rods from the house but i had bscome acquainted with winter weather on the prairies we went on with our game and nothing more was said about fren minutes later i looked up and tl e old man was gone did your father go out i asked one of the girls yes she replied and 1 don't see what keeps him i wish you would go out and find him i wrapped up and started out first taking the precaution to take one end of a rope which i trailed after me about half way between the sheds and the liouse i found tho old man on his hands and knees in the snow which was seven feet deep crawling about trying to find the house he was then nearly dead and ten minutes more would have finished him i picked him up and carried him to the house where with snow ice water and whisky supplemented with an hour or two of hard work we managed to save his life how do people manage to live in such a climate ' live why they prepare for it the early comers generaly put up sod houses and there is nothing in the world so warm as a sod house you can walk around barefoot on the floor of one if properly constructed in the coldest weather after they have been there long enough settlers generally build lop houses hauling logs thirty or ' forty mill's for the purpose these houses are warm and comfortable so long as yon don't have to go out yon don't know what winter is lint the sol house is not to be treated witli disdain 1 assure y u how are they built in the first place a frame of board ' the size the house is to be is put up so as to give the house i nice appear ' anee inside the roof also is boarded over then the sou is cut with a plow and a bank three or four feet thick is raised all arounl this frame every sod is laid as carefully as a mason lays a brick the roots up and all openings are filled i'i with fine dirt openings are made for the windows and doors which have frames extending from inside to outside these will contain sometimes three windows for winter always two when the sod rampart is raised to the height of the roof poles j are laid on and then sod put over those i the roots hold overytuing firm you ! would be surprised to see the roots | s mis of those grass roots are as thick ! as my linger and extend down from ten to fourteen feet " what it's a fact [ assure you i have followed them down myself when dig ging welis in that blue joint grass land why a man in plowing has to stop and sharpen his plow every eighty rods if he cares any thing for his team the blacksmith draws out the point but that and the edge both have to be filed down as sharp as possible and then as 1 say sharpened every eighty rods but to return to the sod house after the outside is completed the in ide is finish ed i?n to suit the taste and pocket of the proprietor some have only the earth en lloor and are divided up into two or three roonis and i tell you for win ter comfort in dakota a

pathos by the lapse of years it is apropos because referring to an expedition when as to day nothing had been heard of him for a year and scientists and others believed him to have perished among the others was the girl : whom stanley loved and was engaged to lm-irrv she was the beautiful alice iv-;e daughter of cincinnati's opera house millionaire and after i waiting until hope deferred became ab inuoned hope at the end of the year j she engaged herself to another man — a millionaire like her father the wed din r day was fixed and the earliest guests ussi mb'ed when the express de livered at her frith r's door a large box containing a quantity of ostrich feath ers and other african trophies and a love lettt r from stanley he was safe and hurrying to lay his honors at her feet but it was

deep silence on the j subject i where ae most of the artificial eyes made we import most of our eyes from france the manufacture of artificial i human eyes is in the hands of a few french workmen vho keep the process a secret the same as the workers on gobelin tapestry keep their art a secret there are two or three in this country engaged in the manufacture of artifi cial eves but their product lacks often the efo.-e finish and the naturalness of the french yet we can make a good ey j to order ' how much would an eye to order i cost not over 815 we keep a large assortment in stock and if we can tit a man the cost would be only 10 there is no such a difference in peo ple's eves as mo^t persons suppose the ordinary black eye the light and dark blue eye and the grey eye and what is called the wall eye are pretty much on the same pattern oculists have stu died the different shades and tints of the eve so long they make a pretty good match to the natural eye not only that but they can fit an artificial eye exactly in the pi ace of a diseased eye after the latter has been removed if the muscles have not been damaged i the artificial eye can be made to roll a little after the manner of a good eye but hardly in the fine frenzy of the past i have known cases so skillfully done that it was a hard matter to tell at the h'rst glance which was the arti ficial and which was the natural eye although a sharp observer would dis tinguish it in a short time i)o you think there are many bully boys in new york with glass eyes we inquired laughingly well 1 can hardly say how many new yorkers sleep with one eye open i a fair estimate would perhaps be over 1,000 or 1.2u0 a great many from out of the city come to be fitted with artificial eyes 1 c n judge somewhat of the number by the amount of my sales every year ' i suppose you have come across some curious cases yes i could tell you some funny experiences which i have had i re member one young lady who was never suited with her eve and had it chang ed once or twice a year another old lady used to lose her eye about once or twice a year one man who used to go on periodical sprees often went home without his eye he came to

LAKE IN THE HILLS – A pilot fired more than three years ago will be reinstated and paid more than $500,000 after investigators determined he was illegally terminated from the Lake in the Hills-based Northern Illinois Flight Center, according to the U.S. Labor Department.
The Occupational Safety and Health Administration found that officials at the flight center broke the law in spring 2009 when they dismissed an Illinois pilot because he contacted the Federal Aviation Administration to discuss violations of the pilot certification process, according to a news release.
The violations revolve around whistle-blower protection provisions in the Wendell H. Ford Aviation Investment and Reform Act for the 21st Century, the news release said.
OSHA has ordered the company to immediately reinstate the employee and pay more than $500,000 in back wages, benefits and damages.
The employee alleged that he was asked to falsify a pilot certification form for a training flight he performed with another pilot in February 2009, according to the Labor Department.
He also stated that in March 2009, supervisors tried to sway him into signing a back-dated and incorrect form.
The pilot informed his supervisors that he was going to contact the FAA Flight Standards District, the news release said.
He contacted the FAA in late March and was terminated in April, with no reason given.
Howard Seedorf, the president and CEO of Northern Illinois Flight Center, said the company plans to appeal the decision. Seedorf said he has been in business for 30 years and such a thing has never happened. He said that the safety allegations were from a disgruntled employee and called the claims "totally incorrect."
Seedorf would not comment further because of the pending appeal.
The investigation by OSHA's Chicago office concluded that employee would not have been terminated had he not requested to meet with the FAA about the pilot certification process and forms.
The labor department does not release the names of employees involved in whistle-blower complaints.
An appeal can be filed within 30 days.
