Terri's Notes
~ Keep this simple - fish, veggies, crunchies. Bake, it's done, and you feel really good about serving such a healthy, easy meal!
~ Very easy to adjust proportions to serve 2 or 10, eyeball it.
~ Trick is to use thinly sliced veggies in thin layers so they are tender crisp when fish is done.
~ If using the fairly thin, tilapia fillets, I've used them frozen. Skip the pre-dip in lemon juice.

LONDON (Reuters) - "Take the F1 performance to your car," runs a slogan on the website of Italian tire maker Pirelli that risks alarming motorists after a weekend of high-speed blowouts in the British Formula One grand prix.
Pirelli, which supplies all 11 teams in F1 motor racing, suffered the downside of supporting high profile sport on Monday after images of its shredded tires were beamed to millions of TV viewers around the world.
"Terror tires" was the headline on the back page of Britain's Daily Mail, while The Times said "Road to hell as tire chaos almost halts grand prix."
The case has echoes of the PR meltdown suffered by Britain's G4S last year when it failed to supply enough security guards for the London Olympics, forcing organizers to draft in soldiers and exposing the company to ridicule.
Pirelli's motor sports specialists were urgently trying to discover what caused the five tire failures during the British grand prix at Silverstone, whether it was something to do with their product or whether the track was to blame.
The sport's millionaire drivers raised the specter of boycotting next weekend's German grand prix if changes were not made, fearing for their safety. Brazilian Ayrton Senna in 1994 was the last driver to be killed in a race.
F1's complex rules, internal politics and team rivalries have all complicated Pirelli's efforts to produce a good racing tire this season but those subtleties were lost on most viewers.
"A lot of these things are beyond their control," said Joel Seymour-Hyde of sports marketing agency Octagon.
"The bottom line is your product is a tire. It goes around on a fast car and it failed spectacularly," he added.
The British race was the eighth stop of 19 on the F1 calendar this season and the first time that tire blowouts have been a major problem.
The Pirelli tires had been the centre of controversy all season, with drivers complaining they had to cut their speed to prevent them wearing out after only a few laps.
One possible solution to the crisis would be to revert back to last year's tires, leading team Red Bull suggested.
Shares in Pirelli edged lower on Monday when news also broke that Italian prosecutors were seeking to jail company chairman Marco Tronchetti Provera for two years in a case related to his time as head of Telecom Italia.
Pirelli, the world's fifth biggest tire maker, has been the sole supplier to Formula One since 2011 under a contract that expires at the end of this season.
The 11 teams make a cash payment to Pirelli for the tires and also carry branding for the company. The teams complain that the value of the advertising they supply far outweighs the cost of the tires.
Sponsors and suppliers use major sporting series and events like the Olympics to show their ability to deliver under the most exacting circumstances.
"F1 is Pirelli's attempt to shout louder than anyone else, to get noticed," said Simon Chadwick, professor of sports marketing at Coventry University in central England.
Chadwick said that few viewers would have decided never to buy a Pirelli tire on the basis of Sunday's blowouts. However, the risk was that the brand would develop negative associations - the exact opposite of what sponsors are trying to achieve.
"You normally associate F1 tires with safety and security. It's about reliability," he said. "Its brand to a greater or lesser extent will have been affected."
Pirelli must now decide whether to remain in the sport and repair its image or cut its losses and quit. It has already committed to contracts for trackside advertising for next season so a withdrawal would be a surprise.
The company declined to comment on Monday. Paul Hembery, its motorsport director, said on Sunday that the company was urgently analyzing the failures.
One by-product of Sunday's chaotic race, won by German Nico Rosberg in a Mercedes, was that it put the sport back in the news on a weekend when it was competing with Wimbledon tennis and the British and Irish Lions rugby tour to Australia.

Jason Aldean Buys 1,300-Acre Farm
What does a incredibly successful country superstar do to celebrate his good fortunes, which include notching his eighth No. 1 hit ('Tattoos on This Town'), releasing one of the best-selling albums of the past two years ('My Kinda Party') and embarking on a sold-out tour? Well, fulfilling a dream like purchasing a nice chunk of property is great way to enjoy the fruits of your labor and that's just what Jason Aldean did.
Aldean bought a 1,300-acre farm on the outskirts of Nashville, which is something he has always dreamed of doing.
"I'd kinda been looking for some land just to get away on and be able to take my kids out there and fish if I want to take them fishing or ride four wheelers," the singer told Country Vibe. "I like to deer hunt so I can do that." Now Aldean has his own slice of heaven with which to hunt, fish and ride recreational vehicles.
Aldean and his family have already used their newly acquired property, having spent New Year's Eve there and the singer checks up on the land and the cabin each week to make sure everything is kosher.
"It kind of gives me something to do. It's kind of quiet and I can take my friends out there," Aldean admitted. He also revealed that there are enough beds to sleep 18 people. Sounds like the cabin is a place for his kinda party.

Research by an Ilkeston student at the University of Derby Buxton is helping a new type of visitor to Chatsworth House understand how the stately home preserves its heritage while giving tourists a great day out.
Schools and colleges have begun to use Chatsworth as an example in travel and tourism courses which teach techniques in giving visitors the best experience so that they come back again – and create the income needed to safeguard its history for future generations.
Bonnie Foulds, from Ilkeston, and two fellow tourism undergraduates, researched the information needed to describe the behind-the-scenes commercial life of Chatsworth and also ensured it satisfied syllabuses from A level to degree level so the stately home's guides can use the same tour for all.
Bonnie said: "This was one of the best experiences since being at the University of Derby, being able to work alongside such a huge attraction and develop a great resource for local students. It has inspired me to focus my final year independent study on Chatsworth as an educational site."

I was preparing a long term bleg/budget bill to figure out exactly how much the blog needs to generate to keep me in pixels and in my house for next year when I looked at the bills and saw that with the latest oil bill there simply isn't the money to pay it and the reserves just aren't there.
Put simply I'm about $600 short on the bills this month. If you think the blog/radio show is worth while and you'd like to help keep it rolling consider hitting DaTipJar.
Sometime next week when I'm done crunching numbers I'll put out an annual/quarterly/monthly number that I'll be shooting for to keep things rolling for next year. If you want to kick in toward that consider a subscription at any of the levels.
To those who have subscribed, thanks so much you have spotted me on the monthly goals.
I will do my best to continue to provide excellent reporting and relevant commentary that you will find worth your time and your support.
Thanks for whatever help you can give.
Update: The first $20 is the hardest thanks to S in Massachusetts and to Charlie from lands unknown and Nate also in Mass.
Update 2: Thanks to Evelyn and Steve in Wisconsin and Mike in NH
Thanks to Howard and James and Larry for getting me over the $200 mark.
And thanks to Fairmont Foto too

Mulling over something that happened today made me think it might be helpful to describe an actual incident where one of our inspectors investigated a complaint and resolved it without going down the route of prosecution. I've suppressed any details that might identify individuals for obvious reasons.
Early this afternoon I had a call from our inspector asking if we could help with veterinary treatment for an animal whose owner hadn't gone to a vet when they should have done. In these circumstances the National RSPCA allows inspectors a certain amount of funding which would cover the cost of a consultation, but this owner was claiming to have no money at all (so wouldn't be able to pay for medication if the inspector arranged to book her an appointment at a local vet).
At the moment we don't normally pay for treatment at private vets (because it's so much less cost-effective than treatment at our own clinic), but in these circumstances I agreed that we'd cover the cost of medication today on the understanding that the owner would register at our clinic at the next available session. We also agreed that I'd arrange for the owner to be issued with one of the neutering vouchers which the National RSPCA gives to branches to part-pay for urgent neutering and that this would be the other condition of us giving them help with the immediate costs of first aid.
Provided the owner complies with all of this they won't need to hear any more from us.
The RSPCA's 2011 Annual Report states:
... investigations that led to prosecutions represented around one percent of the numbers of complaints investigated in 2011. The educational and advice element represents a much larger proportion of how complaints were investigated and acted upon. For instance, the success rate for issuing welfare advice by RSPCA inspectors, either in the form of informal advice or a formal warning notice, had a success rate of 92 percent in 2011. As over 11,000 such notices and advice were issued, this had an enormous impact on preventing further welfare problems in any of the animals concerned.
If the campaign against the RSPCA was to succeed in causing a permanent fall in donations and legacies to support our work it would have a lot more impact on the 99% of animals whose owners need not be prosecuted than on the 1% whose owners really must be stopped.

A courageous canine's inspirational fight to stay alive earned him a new name – and now he's looking for a new home to go with it.
The 12-month-old German Shepherd was dubbed Fergus by rescue workers, as it translates to 'man of strength' - a world away from the poor, malnourished pooch presented to Derbyshire Dog Re-homing just a week ago.
He was found in a malnourished state, shivering and covered in open sores roaming the streets of Chesterfield a month after Christmas.
If dog wardens hadn't found him, he'd have been dead within a week.
Jenny Mark, from Derbyshire Dog Re-homing, said: "It's not unusual for us to see an increase in the number of stray dogs a month or so after Christmas, but in the past they have been mostly younger dogs. Lately, we're finding most of the dogs that come to us have been really neglected."
The dog is now being looked after at the centre and it is hoped he will be able to find a new home soon.

Spikester needed a new logo design and created a contest on 99designs.
A winner was selected from 367 designs submitted by 67 freelance designers.
Wisepreneur is an interactive online community where inventors, innovators, and experts share information to help entrepreneurs start and grow businesses. We try to take a thoughtful approach to suggest practical steps for business success. Wisepreneur is sort of a bridge from good ideas to the commercialization of those ideas. Our focus is on creativity, innovation, and entrepreneurship, and also on having fun. In our view, using creativity and innovation to start a new business is a cool thing to do. You may find more information at: http://wisepreneur.com.
Our audience includes start-up entrepreneurs, small business owners, and consultants to entrepreneurs and small business owners. They are people who have enough information to write a business plan and who need to how to manage the innovation process.
New entrepreneurs visit to find ways to create a sustainable competitive advantage, and experienced business professionals come to find new ideas. Wisepreneur attracts people who are active, smart, and ready to get to work on a new product, service, or business concept.
We are very open to ideas for the logo design. The new logo should represent the three principles of the site: creativity, innovation, and entrepreneurship. We also want the design to express the "Entrepreneurial Spirit" that Wisepreneur supports.
The design might be based on the word "wise" because it is prominent in our name. This might work as long as the design has a fresh look. We want the logo to look unique and memorable.
We like the colors of grey, dark red, and black. It is OK to use other colors as long as they tie in to the overall website design. There are already some design elements on the website. We prefer the design be consistent with those elements, but we will change or modify those to match a particularly sharp-looking logo. More than likely we will want the logo on other items such as stationary and business cards so the logo should be created with that in mind.
I have uploaded a copy of the favicon we currently use in case anyone wants to incorporate something similar in their design.

lovSame song, second week. The tune is from Casting Crowns. The song "Jesus, Friend of Sinners" continues to rock my world. Last week I wrote about how we followers of Jesus do damage with snap judgments and lack of compassion for others. This week I have been thinking about these lyrics.
Nobody knows what we're for only what we're against when we judge the wounded
What if we put down our signs crossed over the lines and love like You did
I decided to write down some things I am for and some things I do not believe but often get accused of by others. Some things I do not believe.
I do not believe you have to be of a particular political persuasion to be a Christian. Like it or not, heaven will be bipartisan and I am totally fine that there will not be sides of the golden aisles.
I do not believe that God is "judging" America for any particular sin. But if He is judging this country I would suspect it is for the massive squandering of wealth and resources that we have been blessed with while giving back an average of less than three percent.
I do not believe in ranking sins for their offensiveness to a Holy God. Some things are more offensive to us but all sin is equally intolerable to a Holy God.
I do not believe that censorship, boycotts, or politics will redeem this culture…only a spiritual renewal can accomplish such redemption.
I do not believe that it is my place to relish or desire eternal punishment for others. I am willing to leave that to a righteous and just God who sees the real heart and motives for each one of us and Who will judge justly.
Here is what I am for.
I am for trying to see everyone through the eyes of Jesus because my eyes are prejudiced and prideful.
I am for trying to love them like Jesus because my love is selfish.
I am for letting others know that my relationship with Jesus has changed my life, given my life purpose, given me strength to endure tragedy, and real hope for the future.
I am for authentically relating how this personal relationship with the living God saved my marriage and made me a better father to my sons.
I am for being gentle in relating the good news of the gospel of Jesus Christ to people in every situation and mired in any sin. My goal is to introduce them to Jesus and let them work out their salvation in fear and trembling.
I am for exhibiting grace and forgiveness to those who attack me for not sharing their views.
I am for praying to be an example of the living Christ to everyone I come in contact so that I can be salt and light to my little circle of influence.
I am for being willing to be an advocate for those wounded by the church and other Christians. Our lack of unity must grieve the Lord who prayed for unity of the body during His final agonizining hours before His betrayal, mock trial, and crucifixion.
I am for being secure enough in my identity in Christ to never be surprised or repulsed by the actions of those who do not have a relationship with Jesus. The Lord Himself was always gentle with sinners and always tough on religious hypocrites. We have reversed his example far too often. We are too tough on sinners and too gentle with the hypocrites.
I am for giving generously of my time and treasure to those who have not been as materially blessed in my neighborhood, my country, and around the world.
That is what I am for. I often fall short of the target. And that is why I am especially for living out of grace.

The Gate of Hell in Turkmenistan
Posted on August 31, 2015 | By English Kid Zone | Leave a response
Terrible. The fire is blazing from inside a hole in the Karakum Desert, Derweze, Turkmenistan. People call that hole with the name "The Gate of Hell". But strangely, the gate of hell is always visited by many people. In fact, this place is a tourism object. But first, do not believe that the hole was really […]

Precious Metals prices recovered slightly after two economic reports were released this morning. United States housing starts and jobless claims were worse than expected. Economists expected housing starts to rise slightly, but they fell by 1.1 percent. Economists also expected a rise of about 1,000 in new jobless claims, but the real result was slightly higher at 2,000. These reports could give the Federal Reserve more ground for another round of quantitative easing (QE), about which some are expecting a decision later this month.
Physical demand for Gold is taking a hit in India now. That country has been the world's largest consumer of Gold, in large part due to its high demand for use in jewelry. The two factors that are playing into the softening demand are an increase in import duties and a weak Indian rupee, which drives the local price of Gold higher. Combined with a stronger dollar and weaker euro, the rest of the world is seeing the Gold price hover around $1,600 per ounce. With currency trade on one end and the desire for a safe haven investment on the other, Gold seems to be tugged by both sides at the moment, waiting for a potential announcement on QE from either the United States Federal Reserve or the European Central Bank.
At 9 a.m. (EDT), the APMEX Precious Metals spot prices were:
- Gold, $1,608.30, Up $3.20.
- Silver, $27.97, Up $0.05.
- Platinum, $1,402.60, Up $5.40.
- Palladium, $580.40, Up $0.90.

Top 3 beauty trends set by stars
Los Angeles – Actress Blake Lively's pink eye shadow and matching lip colour and Jessica Biel's mint eye liner are some of the beauty trends worth giving a shot this party season.
People.com shares more trends set by celebrities:
– Matching lipstick to eye shadow: You can apply pale pink gloss like Blake Lively chose for her lips. It is a subtle shade that works well on eye lids as well.
– Navy nails: Red nail polish is the most common colour opted by women in winter, but you can try navy colour like dusky singer Jennifer Hudson. The deep-blue hue looks nice even on those with fair complexion. Add glossy topcoat.
– Mint Liner: Mint might be a spring shade, but it can be used as an eye liner in the winter. Actress Jessica Biel kept it from looking over-the-top by lining just her lower lash line.

When I first learned my son Cash'an had autism, I didn't want to talk about it. As a trained print and broadcast journalist, professional in communications, and even as an actress who has taken center stage to express my thoughts, emotions and perceptions of the world around me, the last thing I wanted was public focus, pity or random questions with no apparent answers. I had no perspective, no message for TV cameras, no 10-inch newspaper story on how to deal with the fact that my baby was afflicted by a disorder that I, for one so well-read, had never even heard of. I also knew that I had to use every bit of my training to get knowledge - quick. Still, it was in silence.
So there I was sitting up many late nights perusing online websites, books and magazine articles – anything I could get my hands on, to find out more. I did this as my then 2-year-old son sat in his room in the wee hours of the morning, as he often did, lining up toys and anything else he could find – a spoon, a sock, a comb – in intricate patterns that I dare not alter. Changing this design pattern would make him flustered and determined to start the process, with the same order and precise detail, all over again. I'd learn in my research that children with autism not only had irregular sleep patterns and rigid behaviors, but sensory sensitivities, loss of language and lack of cognitive ability to learn in the traditional way how things work in the world. I also read that they are very intelligent – many exceptionally so. As I watched Cash'an one of those late nights, it hit me.
There were many children like my son, who had a world of potential in front of them, but needed someone who loved them and were willing to tirelessly tap into the universe to find ways to help them. I thought: "What happens to those who don't have that – the ones neglected, abused or hidden because they are misunderstood?"
Coming from a Jamaican heritage, I realized that in the Hartford area, which boasts the second largest West Indian population in the country, many of us don't air our so-called "dirty laundry" because we are often too proud to let anyone know that we have a child perceived as less intelligent or different from their peers. This was even more apparent as I went to autism conferences and seminars where I rarely, if at all, saw anyone of color. Where were other African Americans, Latinos, Asians or West Indians? My son couldn't possibly be among a few, could he? I discovered that in fact, there are more boys diagnosed with autism than girls, but children of color are often diagnosed two to three later than their Caucasian counterparts. Six years later, the statistics are still the same.
I decided for Cash'an and his future, and other children like him, I had to try to reach opinion leaders, educators, policy makers, doctors, community leaders and others who could perhaps make a difference. I was never in denial, nor was I ashamed, but something inside me knew that I could not be silent; that I had to find a vehicle to galvanize other parents searching and wanting desperately to save their child from isolation.
After doing TV and radio interviews, writing articles and launching a developing initiative to reach underserved populations, I have the pleasure of participating in the Mommy Minute blog for CTNow and The Courant.
My goal is not only to inform, but to encourage loved ones that people with autism have much to give. Even without words, my son, now 9, has given me a voice. I have a 12-year-old daughter, who skipped kindergarten and has been excelling in school and socially ever since. She has also grown tremendously in ways she may not have if her brother had been typically developing. I also have new husband, who tries hard to understand Cash'an and teach him just how to be a boy with no labels or limited expectations. My husband, having a son himself about the same age on the spectrum (yes, we have two), has already had an incredible influence on Cash'an, showing him how to be responsible, accountable for his actions and independent in public and at home. It is a work in progress.
In our unique family life, we live moments of laughter, frustration and pride from the smallest things to the biggest. With this new forum, I hope to share pieces of those experiences to inspire, enlighten, make you laugh and understand it is OK to cry. Then we start a new day with renewed vision and hope. Neither our sons, nor our lives are defined by autism. Though it is ever-present, it does not control us and we are determined to beat it with our love, spirit, patience, understanding and knowledge.

The fashion industry has been waiting with baited breath for months to see what Raf Simons would do in his historic first collection for Dior. The Belgian wunderkind has a penchant for minimalism and is known for his modern, forward-thinking approach, which many speculated would be difficult to reconcile with Dior's midcentury heritage and strongly feminine identity. As it turns out, Raf did a pretty bang-up job.
What we care about, of course, are the handbags from Dior Spring 2013. Raf's team succeeded there as well – the bags were familiar, but not as overly-complicated as they tended to be during John Galliano's tenure at the storied French house. On the Lady Dior bags, for example, all of the hardware was covered in the same material as the bag, slightly modernizing a brand favorite. A new, sleek north-south satchel featured a tucked-in waist of sorts, reflective of the New Look silhouette that made Dior famous. Check out the full collection after the jump.

Higher energy prices hit growers in the variable cost line on their financial statements. Variable costs are expected to be 33% higher in 2006 than 2002, according to a study by Gary Schnitkey and Dale Lattz, University of Illinois economists. The variable costs of corn production are projected to be $55/acre higher next year than in 2002. About half of the increase is due to fertilizer costs, projected to be $28 higher next year than in 2002. Pesticides and seeds are $17 higher and machinery-related items like fuel are $7/acre higher. Variable costs for soybean production are projected to be up $20/acre in 2006 compared to 2002.
A continuous corn production system will need to boost yields next year to cover increased energy costs compared to a corn-soybean rotation. Kevin Robertson, Purdue University economist, analyzed production costs and found that a grower planting continuous corn needs at least a 225-bu./acre yield to compete with a corn rotation yield of 180 bu./acre. In his analysis, Robertson figured $3/gal. diesel fuel and $0.38/lb. nitrogen costs along with $2.30/bu. corn. He suggests that growers carefully examine costs and consider shifting from rotation to continuous corn.

It's a gorgeous 'Navy' blue with hidden shimmer (sort of like Illamasqua Scarab's blue sister. I'm not sure I'd describe it as a navy though. It is dark, but it's got an almost cobalt or indigo tone under artificial light. I was expecting something a little darker, actually. Still, it's nice.

I believe some more context would be useful.
Student or Learner
Should we use followed or have followed? I think the latter works better as the present perfect tense should be used?
I believe some more context would be useful.
Please be aware that I'm neither a native English speaker nor a teacher.
... as either tense could be appropriate. (The OP mis-used 'as' - logically, that is, not grammatically. )
PS There is also the possibility that the speaker is using 'to my knowledge' wrongly, with the intended sense 'This is a fact:...'. Again, context would help.

Investment Credit
by CHARLES N. WHITEHEAD Partner, San Francisco Office
Presented before the 11th Annual Tax Conference of the Utah Society of Public Accountants, Salt Lake City—December 1963
IAM SURE that all of you have had experience with the new investment
credit. Undoubtedly, you encountered it in the preparation or review of returns for 1962, but at that time Regulations were not available and uncertainties developed as the attempt was made to apply the statutes to specific situations. Proposed Regulations have now been issued, and this paper will be an attempt to explain in as simple terms as possible the significant portions of the law as interpreted
by the Regulations.
The investment credit was a part of the Administration's program to encourage business by permitting tax relief for taxpayers purchasing
new and used equipment. Relief took the form of a credit against tax, not a deduction or an adjustment of rate. As you know, the credit is 7 per cent of the qualified property (a lesser percentage for utilities).
The law contains a limitation on the amount of credit available in any given year; the credit cannot exceed $25,000 plus 25 per cent of the tax in excess of $25,000. If the taxpayer has an investment credit greater than the amount allowable under this limitation, the excess will be carried back for three years (but not before 1962) and forward five more years. If the credit is not utilized within this eight-year period, then the unused balance will become a deduction in the ninth year. The limitations are applicable in connection with married couples; if a joint return is filed, the $25,000 plus 25 per cent is allowed on the joint return. But if separate returns are filed, then the allowable
amount is limited to $12,500 for each separate return plus 25 per cent of the tax in excess of $12,500. In the case of affiliated groups, the $25,000 must be apportioned between the members of the group on an equitable basis. The proposed Regulations provide for an election
to be made by the affiliated group as to the corporation to which the limitation is to be applicable;1 that is, the affiliated group, whether

Wisconsin Legislator Uses Budget Proposal to Lure Business
ST. PAUL (AP) - A Wisconsin legislator is using Gov. Mark Dayton's budget proposal to try to lure business across the state border.
Republican Rep. Erik Severson, of Osceola, has sent a letter to hundreds of Minnesota businesses, including Best Buy, 3M and UnitedHealth Group. Severson urges the businesses to relocate to Wisconsin and avoid higher taxes.
Dayton's proposal raises about $2 billion in additional tax revenue by lowering the state sales tax, but expanding it to more items and to services. Dayton's office has responded to Severson's letter by saying job growth is not dictated by taxes and that Severson should focus on his own state. The statement from the governor's office also says Minnesota's economy has fared far better than Wisconsin's in recent years.

The need for speed….At 9Round Fitness
If you have ever seen any king of boxing movie, or training video, you have inevitably seen a montage of fighters using a speed bag. The speed bag is definitely a fan favorite. It also happens to be one of the toughest bags to master.
Where a heavy bag helps to improve power, a speed bag helps to improve skill. In order to properly work a speed bag, you have to have speed and rhythm. The level of hand-eye coordination is also very important when utilizing this bag. Speed bag work is also a great arm and shoulder workout. Unlike a heavy bag, the speed bag is not about hitting with power. It requires a little bit of a lighter more focused approach. The great thing about the speed bag is that you get immediate response. If you are not hitting it properly, it doesn't work properly. The other great thing is that you see the results quickly. You may struggle with it for days or weeks, but you will quickly see improvements in your ability to keep the rhythm. It is not uncommon to struggle one day and walk in and be able to make it purr the very next day. Sometimes it just clicks.
There are several different sizes of bags. The size directly correlates to the bag speed and the level of difficulty. The smaller bags are obviously faster and much more difficult to hit. These help to give even the best person a challenge. By changing up the speed bag size you can insure that you are continually changing up the workout.
Being honest, most people just enjoy the speed bag because you can look really cool when you are hitting it. When you are finally able to hit the bag consistently, you can't help but feel a little bit like Rocky.
Check out 9Round – Spartanburg trainer, Kenny, showing his speed bag skills.

Eighteen of the world's best snowboarder's are settling into Baldface Lodge tonight, as the holding period for Red Bull Supernatural begins. On only one day between today and February 8th, the 18 will be the first riders to drop into Travis Rice's dream snowboard run, competing to find out who is the best all-around snowboarder on the planet. Red Bull Supernatural is a first-of-its-kind, backcountry snowboard competition, challenging riders' big mountain, freeride, slopestyle and big air talents all in one spectacular run.
"Scary Cherry," the run in Baldface's tenure that's been enhanced to host Red Bull Supernatural, features a variety of slope angles and natural features. It starts off with an extremely steep, over-40 degree slope angle providing big mountain terrain before tapering to 35 degrees where most of the 80+ wooden platforms and other features have been built. Midway it flattens out into a bench providing the perfect location for Rice's dream 300' wide kicker with a fresh powder landing zone. After the kicker, the slope drops to a 30 degree pitch where esteemed terrain park builder J.P. Martin, working with Rice for inspiration, planted a garden of innovative slopestyle features.
"Inspiration for the course design came from nature, straight up, and the crazy features that I've seen people ride," Rice explains. "You have to have terrain that compliments freestyle riding on all-mountain terrain, which is why we built this course from scratch. There's no limit on what is possible with a little creativity and some will."
The rider list features the additions of wild card winners Mark McMorris and Sage Kotsenburg, both 18-years old and global slopestyle leaders. Also this week, Canadian Mark Sollors has been confirmed to replace Wolfgang Nyvelt, who was forced to drop out by an injury.

WASHINGTON (AP) – China's foreign minister pushed Friday for the restart of international talks on North Korea's nuclear program, saying that Pyongyang is ready to recommit to the goal of denuclearization.
North Korea withdrew from the aid-for-disarmament talks in 2009, and over the past year has made clear it wants to be treated as a nuclear weapons state.
But Foreign Minister Wang Yi told a Washington think tank that the North has recently said it is ready to come back to a 2005 commitment on giving up nuclear weapons, and to an agreement it reached with the United States in February last year on freezing its nuclear programs in exchange for food aid.
That agreement fell through soon after it was hatched when North Korea reneged on it by testing a long-range rocket.
The U.S. remains very skeptical about Pyongyang's intentions. North Korea conducted its third underground nuclear test in February, and in recent weeks there have been signs it is restarting a plutonium reactor that can produce fissile material for bombs. Satellite imagery also suggests it may have expanded its uranium enrichment facility.
Wang met Thursday with Secretary of State John Kerry. Beforehand, Wang said he was confident they could reach "a new, important agreement" on how to relaunch the long-stalled disarmament talks that were originally hosted by Beijing.
China is North Korea's only major ally and remains its main benefactor, but it has struck a more critical tone in the past year. China cooperated with the U.S. in tightening U.N. sanctions against North Korea _ formally known as the Democratic People's Republic of Korea, or DPRK _ in response to the nuclear test. Now, however, it appears much more eager than Washington for negotiations to restart.
Speaking about U.S.-China relations at the Brookings Institution, Wang said that achieving denuclearization of the Korean Peninsula is a common goal of the two global powers.
"Now that the DPRK side has reiterated it will come back to the denuclearization goal it is time for the six parties to have serious dialogue to work out how we can achieve that goal," Wang said through an interpreter.
Wang said he is discussing with the U.S. how to set a "reasonable threshold" for the resumption of the talks that would be acceptable to all the parties _ that also include Japan, Russia and South Korea.
Washington is adamant that Pyongyang must first take concrete steps to show its sincerity _ like the nuclear freeze the U.S. tried to broker last year.
After Thursday's talks with China, there was no sign of a breakthrough.
The U.S. said Kerry had detailed to Wang "several disturbing developments" that indicate North Korea continues to flout its previous commitments to denuclearize.
The U.S., however, has not closed the door to official contact with North Korea.
Washington wanted to send an envoy to Pyongyang last month to request a pardon for a detained American, Kenneth Bae, who is accused of subversion. North Korea withdrew its invitation at the last minute, citing the mobilization of nuclear-capable U.S. bombers during military drills with South Korea.

JOHNSON CITY, Tenn. (March 20, 2014) – Aiming to keep its postseason run alive, the ETSU men's basketball team will host Colonial Athletic Association member Towson in the second round of the CollegeInsider.com Tournament Friday evening inside the ETSU/MSHA Athletic Center.
Tip is set for 7 p.m. and tickets are available now via on-line purchase at ETSUBucs.com and by calling 423-439-ETSU (3878) or 423-439-4828. This will be the first ever meeting between the Bucs and Tigers.
The Buccaneers learned late Wednesday that Towson would be their next opponent. ETSU advanced to the second round with a 79-66 win over longtime rival Chattanooga on Tuesday night, while Towson needed a half-court, buzzer-beater to defeat USC Upstate 63-60 on Wednesday. In fact, Towson's game-winning play is currently the ESPN Play of the Day right now on SportsCenter.
A clip of the Tigers' amazing shot is available here: http://bit.ly/1gV6khs
With a win over Towson Friday night, the Buccaneers (19-15) would advance to the quarterfinals of the CIT and also win their 20th game of the year. But it won't be easy against a Tigers' team that is 24-10 on the year and finished second in the CAA.

Bucs add to postseason resume
The ETSU men's basketball team has enjoyed its share of postseason success and ranks as one of the nation's most prestigious basketball programs ... The Buccaneers have earned berths to the NCAA Tournament nine times (1969, 1989, 1990, 1991, 1992, 2003, 2004, 2009, 2010) and NIT twice (1983, 2007) ... This will be the Bucs second time in the CIT Postseason Tournament, and the program's 13th postseason tournament appearance all-time ... In the Bucs first CIT appearance, ETSU went 2-1 with wins over Furman and Ohio, advancing to the tournament semifinals before losing to Iona in a hard-fought 83-80 contest at the Dome.
ETSU "only" A-Sun team picked among nation's best "Prestige" programs
Since the beginning of the modern era for NCAA Division I-A basketball – marked by the expansion of the NCAA Tournament field to 64 teams in 1984-85 – the ETSU men's basketball program ranks in the Top 30 percent of the 300 programs that were eligible for the postseason at that time, this according to ESPN.com's "Prestige" ranking released back in 2008 ... Since that time, the Bucs have only added to their list of prestigious honors, with back-to-back NCAA appearances in 2009 and 2010, followed by CIT appearances in 2011 and 2014 … Since the 1984-85 season, the Buccaneers, who have enjoyed nine NCAA Tournament trips, one NIT berth, two CIT berths, 11 20-win seasons, and a slew of conference regular season and tournament championships in that time, ranked tied for 82nd out of 300 teams, meaning they were in the Top 27 percent of schools making the list. ETSU was ranked ahead of every current Atlantic Sun Conference team, as well as former Southern Conference rivals Appalachian State, Western Carolina, Georgia Southern and UNC Greensboro. In addition, the Bucs ranked ahead of SEC schools such as Tennessee, Vanderbilt, South Carolina, Mississippi State, Georgia, Mississippi and Auburn, as well as other major programs such as Virginia Tech, Notre Dame, DePaul, Bradley, Clemson, California and Florida State.
Last time out in the CIT
JOHNSON CITY, Tenn. (March 18, 2014) – Round one of a rivalry renewed goes to the ETSU men's basketball team. ... With the Buccaneers joining the Southern Conference in 2014-15, ETSU fans got a preview of things to come as the Bucs faced longtime rival Chattanooga for the first time in five years, using their best defensive effort of the season to drop the Mocs 79-66 Tuesday night in the first round of the CollegeInsider.com Tournament at the ETSU/MSHA Athletic Center. ... ETSU (19-15) held the Mocs to just 31.4 percent shooting from the floor – a season low for ETSU opponents – and the Bucs got double-figure scoring from four players, led by a game-high 23 points from junior guard Jaley Riley (Racine, Wis.) and 17 points from junior guard Rashawn Rembert (Tampa, Fla.) ... Along with Riley and Rembert, the Bucs also got 12 points from senior forward Kinard Gadsden-Gilliard (Georgetown, S.C.) and 11 from freshman guard A.J. Merriweather (Jackson, Tenn.). Senior forward Hunter Harris (Nashville) also contributed to the cause with 12 rebounds, two blocks and two steals. … The game was tight in the first half, with ETSU's largest lead coming just before the intermission at 33-27. In the second half, the Bucs built their lead to as many as 13 points at 52-39, but Chattanooga (18-15) roared back with a 12-2 run to make it 54-51 with 10 minutes left in the contest. ... At that point, the Bucs progressively regained their hold on the contest and led by as many as 15 at 73-58 before ultimately winning by 13. ... For Chattanooga, Martynas Bareika led the way with 15 points, while Z. Mason posted a double-double with 12 points and 15 rebounds. In addition, Casey Jones added 12 points and Eric Robertson netted 11. ... ETSU shot 46 percent from the field and 84 percent from the foul line for the game, while the Mocs held a slight edge in rebounding at 44-43. The Bucs also enjoyed a 36-18 edge for points in the paint.
The series vs. Towson
This will be the first ever meeting between the Buccaneers and Tigers.
Rembert with shot at A-Sun scoring title
Junior guard Rashawn Rembert (Tampa, Fla.) has a great chance to win the Atlantic Sun Conference scoring title ... Rembert and USC Upstate senior Torrey Craig entered the first round of the CIT with 555 points each, but Craig scored just 14 points in the loss to Towson, while Rembert netted 17 against Chattanooga ... Rembert now holds a slight lead with a 16.8 scoring average heading into Friday's game with Towson ... The scoring title is based on average scoring per game, and not overall points scored.
Bucs have tradition of postseason success
The ETSU men's basketball team has enjoyed its share of postseason success and ranks as one of the nation's most prestigious basketball programs ... The Buccaneers have earned berths to the NCAA Tournament nine times (1969, 1989, 1990, 1991, 1992, 2003, 2004, 2009, 2010) and NIT twice (1983, 2007) ... In 2011, the Bucs made their first ever appearance in the CollegeInsider.com Postseason Tournament, winning twice and advancing to the semifinals of that event ... It was the program's 12th postseason tournament appearance all-time. ... This 2014 CIT appearance is the Bucs' sixth postseason trip in Coach Murry Bartow's 11 seasons at ETSU. ... The Buccaneers have five postseason tournament victories all-time ... Those wins include a 79-69 win over Florida State in the 1968 NCAA Tournament and an 87-80 victory over Arizona in the 1992 NCAA Tourament. ... The Bucs also have three victories in the CIT all-time, with wins over Furman and Ohio in 2011, and the win over Chattanooga this year.
Rembert, Riley, Merriweather earn All A-Sun honors
JOHNSON CITY, Tenn. ( March 3, 2014) – The ETSU men's basketball team has enjoyed quite a turnaround from its 2012-13 season, and a trio of Buccaneers were honored Monday for their contributions to those successes by being named to various All Atlantic Sun Conference teams. ... In a vote of the league's head coaches, junior guard Rashawn Rembert (Tampa, Fla.) was named first-team All A-Sun, freshman guard A.J. Merriweather (Jackson) was voted to the league's all-freshman team, and junior guard Jalen Riley (Racine, Wisc.) was picked as the A-Sun's Newcomer of the Year. ... Rembert led all scorers in A-Sun play at 18.3 PPG, as he connected on 3.4 three pointers against conference foes. Meanwhile, Riley added more scoring punch to the Buccaneer line-up this season as he registered 12.7 PPG in only 19.8 minutes per game and shot 86.2 percent from the charity stripe; second-best in the league during the regular season. Riley increased his scoring to 13.1 PPG in league play as he came off the bench in all but one game this season. ... As for Merriweather, he continues to lead the Bucs in rebounding and steals per game.
Rembert making place in history during 2013-14
Junior guard Rashawn Rembert (Tampa, Fla.) has become one of the most feared shooters in the Atlantic Sun Conference, and this season he has rewritten ETSU's record books ... With 105 3-pointers so far this season, Rembert has easily eclimpsed the previous program record of 86 makes in a season, set by Courtney Pigram (Memphis) in 2006-07. ... Rembert's numbers are also some of the best in the nation for an outside shooter ... For those statistics, look to the column on the left of this page.
Resurgent Wilson giving Bucs a lift on offense
With his career high 31 points and seven made 3-pointers in the Jacksonville game (2/20), sophomore Lester Wilson (Knoxville) continued his recent resurgence as a major offensive weapon for the Bucs ... Since Jan. 25, Wilson is averaging 13.9 points and 4.7 rebounds a game, while shooting 44 percent from the field, 39 percent from 3-point range, and 93 percent at the foul line ... By comparison, before his recent streak, Wilson had averaged 7.5 points and 2.6 rebounds per game on just 33% shooting from the field and 26% shooting from 3-point range.
Free throws key to ETSU victories this season
What a difference a year can make ... Last season, the Buccaneers struggled for consistency at the foul line, but this year has been a different story ... The Bucs currently lead the Atlantic Sun Conference with a 75 percent shooting clip from the charity stripe, and their numbers are also good enough to rank 22nd in the country in free throws made as of March 17 with 625 makes ... In fact, the Bucs matched the program record for free throw percentage in a game against Jacksonville (2/20), going 18-of-18 for 100 percent at the charity stripe. ... In addition, the Bucs have currently hit 609 free throws this season, which is a new school record, breaking the old mark of 589 makes in 1991-92 ... The Bucs' 75 percent shooting mark would also rank first in program history, besting the .749 clip set in 1989-90.
Difference between winning and losing for ETSU
Rebounding has been a particular indicator for the Bucs this season when it comes to wins and losses ... The statistics below show the differences for the Bucs is several important categories so far this season.
Statistical category Wins (19-0) Losses (0-14)
ETSU scoring 83.8 PPG....................... 68.0 PPG
Opponent scoring 73.6 PPG........................ 78.8 PPG
Rebounding margin +0.3....................................... -7.4
Shooting % .471.................................... .382
3-pt. shooting % .396................................... .327
Assists 13.0 APG..................... 11.3 APG
Merriweather continues to shine, posts double-double
Freshman guard A.J. Merriweather (Jackson, Tenn.) has certainly made an impression this season, and he continued to make more news with his third career double-double in the win over Kennesaw State (1/4) ... In that game, Merriweather also netted a career high with 19 points, while grabbing 10 rebounds ... His current team ranks are first in rebounding (6.4 rpg), fifth in scoring (9.6 ppg), first in steals (1.5 spg), and third in minutes played (26.4 mpg).
Three-point streak for Bucs dates back nearly 20 years
Since Feb. 16, 1987 in a game against Davidson, the Bucs have made at least one 3-pointer in 828 consecutive games. ... ETSU was 0-for-8 in that 1987 game. ... The Bucs currently rank as the 7th longest streak in the NCAA, just behind Arkansas and ahead of Oakland.
Shuffling starters was the "new normal" for Bucs
Last season, ETSU head coach Murry Bartow used 17 different starting lineups in the team's 32 games ... Injuries and dismissals left ETSU's coaches searching for the right combination all season. ... Bartow hoped to find more stability with his rotation in 2013-14, but he had used five different starting lineups in the first five games of the year. ... Since that time, he has played with the same starting lineup in 22 of the last 29 games, with the team going 14-8 in those contests.

April 11, 2007
Lipscomb athletes Catherine Johnson and Mike Sherman have been honored by the National Strength and Conditioning Association as All-American Strength and Conditioning Athletes of the Year.
The award recognizes student-athletes for their dedication to strength training and conditioning. The NSCA honored 239 collegiate athletes at 165 schools.
Johnson, a senior from Old Hickory, Tenn., plays volleyball for the Lady Bisons. She was a two-year starter.
"Catherine tremendously improved her power, increasing her vertical jump by 10 feet," Lipscomb strength coach John Hudy said. "She has increased her strength over her four years here. Her improvement in the weight room coincided with her performance on the court.
"She is the epitome of a student athlete while maintaining a high grade point average. She always showed up to workouts with a smile on her face. She was an encourager to her teammates no matter how hard the workouts became. She never complained. She led by example."
Sherman, a senior from Richardson, Texas, is a member of the Bisons tennis team.
"Mike is an extremely hard working young man in the weight room, the court and the classroom," Hudy said. "He holds several records in the weight room. He has improved every year in our testing. Mike will never be out-worked in the weight room, court or classroom."
Sherman has played either No. 1 or No. 2 singles for his four years at Lipscomb. He has been an Atlantic Sun All-Freshman team member and has been an A-Sun Second Team All-Conference selection as a sophomore and junior.

Global Rallycross (GRC) is one of the hottest motorsports events of the year. 600hp+ AWD turbocharged rally cars going door to door over 70ft. gaps is a recipe for success in anyone's book. We certainly enjoyed catching the season finale race under the glistening sunset soaked Las Vegas Strip during the SEMA show last week.
This year the GRC set off on a tour across the US to showcase some of the best drivers in a battle for the championship. Ken Block, Tanner Foust, Brian Deegan, Sebastian Loeb, were just some of the star-studded pilots for this years GRC.
The final race of the season took place this early last week during the SEMA Show convention in Las Vegas, NV. Held right outside the doors of the North Hall, the GRC racetrack had a close championship battle brewing against Tanner Foust and Brian Deegan (just seven points behind Tanner). Deegan would suffer a flat tire during a first heat collision, he would have to wait for his chance to enter the final race, and race the last-chance qualifier – which he won with ease.
As the green flag dropped tanner shot out to an early lead taking the hole-shot but Deegan seemed to fly from out in left field cutting in and securing 4th. Deegan took the longer fast laps early, which moved him up to a solid 2nd place.
But Tanner was able to not only hold onto first but extended his lead as Deegan would have to watch from second place as Tanner took the checkered flag securing the overall GRC Championship. 'It has been such a great year in the Fiesta," said Foust. "The Ford driver lineup was so strong, which makes winning the manufacturer's championship in GRC just that much better."
Deegan wouldn't exactly be cut out of the limelight as he was able to secure the GRC Rookie-of-the-Year award for his overall performance throughout the season. "I just basically had to go for it. I just shut off my brain and said, 'All right, it's just all or nothing at this point. You've got nothing to lose.' Went through the last chance, the hardest way, and started in the last row. Somehow I came through that first turn -- I don't know, I out-broke everyone and came around them. I did the best I could to hang in there. I ended up second so it was not a bad day" –Brian Deegan.
Ken Block Suffers Mechanical Fire
What seemed to be a picture perfect day for Ken Block, ended in disaster as his Monster Energy World Rally Ford Fiesta caught fire. Electrical gremlins are to blame for starting the blaze and ending Block's commanding day. Despite missing practice on Sunday, Ken entered the field and dominated throughout the day. Securing P1 for the final race. But 3 laps into the race something seemed to be wrong. Ken pulled off to the course, emerged from the car and was clearly upset about this situation. Smoke bellowed from the cockpit and flames could be seen from nearly every vantage point. Luckily Ken emerged without injury besides the one to record setting day.

Canons of the
Musical Offering
Tony Phillips of the
American Mathematical Society
has posted a most interesting study in which
these canons are used
to illustrate the mathematics of elementary functions.
How the "Offering" Came to Be
In 1746 Frederick the Great extended an invitation to Johann Sebastian to visit the Prussian court in Berlin. The invitation may have come at the behest of Carl Philip Emanuel, Sebastian's son then in the employ of the king, or it may have been engineered by Count Keyserlingk, Russian ambassador and patron of Bach. In the spring of 1747 the elderly composer arrived in Potsdam where he was received graciously, if not deferentially, as shown by Frederick's (or Carl Philip Emanuel's) calling upon Sebastian as "Old Bach."
The guest was immediately asked to test Frederick's new Silbermann fortepianos and the ensuing display of technique was impressive enough for the emperor to propose a musical subject upon which Bach was requested to improvise a fugue. If contemporary accounts are to be believed, Johann Sebastian improvised at that time two fugues: one for three voices and one for six. Upon his return to Leipzig Bach added to the fugues a strict set of canons and a trio sonata featuring the "royal theme" in the flute part (Frederick's own instrument) which he had engraved and sent to the emperor as a "Musical Offering."
Dedication and
While it is known today--after its dedication--as the
Musical Offering,
Bach titled the cycle
Regis Jussu Cantio Et Reliqua Canonica Arte Resoluta,
an acrostic spelling "ricercar," the old-fashioned precursor of the fugue. Bach also titled the Offering's two fugues by that antique term.
Analysis of Each Canon
Canon 1.
a 2 cancrizans
The first canon of the
Musical Offering
is a "
": it employs Frederick's royal theme with a second canonic voice stating the theme simultaneously backward.
Make a Möbius strip
of this canon and see the animation at
Canon 2.
a 2 Violini in unisono
This is a simple unison canon for two violins with the royal theme appearing in an independent line below the canonic voices.
Canon 3.
a 2 per Motum contrarium
In the third movement the canonic voices are instructed to move in
contrary motion
per Motum contrarium
), while the royal theme is stated in the highest voice.
Canon 4.
a 2 per Augmentationem contrario Motu
Bach's inscription,
Notulis crescentibus crescat Fortuna Regis
refers to
rhythmic augmentation of the follower
: "As the notes increase may the fortunes of the King do likewise." The upside down clef signals the follower to move in the
opposite direction
of the leader.
Canon 5.
a 2 per Tonus
In canon #5 the royal theme appears in the highest voice, while the canonic voices are separated by the interval of a perfect 5th. Bach's allegorical notation,
Ascendenteque Modulatione ascendat Gloria Regis,
alludes to a
modulating spiral
in which each repetition of the canon rises in pitch by a whole step ("As the keys ascend so may the glory of the king also ascend").
Stefan Scheller
cites this canon as an example of an acoustical illusion in which the scale may be made to appear to rise when it really does not.
Canon 6.
Fuga canonica in Epidiapente
With ten measures between its leader and follower, the "Canonic fugue with follower at the fifth" is the least recognizable as such. But a canon it is, and a strict one at that. The highest voice is an exact transposition of the middle upward a perfect 5th. While maintaining the canonic structure of this movement Bach yet manages to fashion a full-blown fugue.
Canon 7.
Canon perpetuus super Thema Regium
Bach's designation of canon #7 as
, reflects the fact that it has no satisfying ending. Actually any canon that is repeatable may also be considered "perpetual." Notice the unusual use of the bass clef for the canon's follower.
Canon 8.
Canon perpetuus
The eighth movement is technically not one canon, but two cleverly spliced together in measure 18. The canonic voices of the second half are the vertical
mirror image
of their counterparts in the first half.
Canon 9.
Canon a 2 Quaerendo invenietis
The leader reads the ninth canon in the alto clef, right side up, while the follower reads in bass clef, upside down. Like the one before it, this is a
mirror canon
. In this canon and the next Bach does not indicate the time interval, inviting us to search for it ourselves--
Quaerendo invenietis
"Seek and ye shall find."
Canon 10.
Canon a 4
Again, Bach does not specify the time interval, requiring us instead to "seek it and find"--
Quaerendo invenietis.

The Bisons pounded out 11 hits on the way to a 13-3 victory in game one. In game two they also had 11 hits, all singles, for a 7-2 win at Ken Dugan Field at Stephen L. Marsh Stadium. It was the first doubleheader sweep of the season for the Bisons and first series sweep as well.
"The offense hasn't gotten started like we think it can go," said Lipscomb coach Jeff Forehand. "To have two games with double figures in hits is a plus for us to get some things going. We need to see if we can keep this thing rolling."
In game one the Bisons opened with six runs, added two in the third and five in the sixth. The game was called in the seventh inning since the Bisons were winning by 10 runs in the first game of a conference doubleheader.
The first inning was highlighted by Justin Sanders eighth double of the season and a two-run single by Allen Bolden. Antonio Butler hit and RBI single, his first of three RBI in the game, a season high for him.
In the third Butler blasted a two-run home run to center field, his second two-RBI homer in as many days.
"Antonio is swinging the bat pretty good," said Forehand. "We felt like he was going to contribute by being on the bases and stealing bases. We thought he would bunt the ball and press the defense. We thought he would be a disruption like that.
"We didn't expect him to contribute by hitting the ball out of the park. But we will take couple of home runs every now and then when he gets good swings on them."
In many ways Butler is also surprised at his power surge.
"I usually just try to hit ground balls and run because of my speed," said Butler. "I guess I have the potential to hit home runs, but that is not part of my game. I'm just taking full advantage of the opportunities I have this season."
In the sixth Tyler Wilson stole home for one run. Bolden doubled to drive in a pair of runs. Bolden's four RBI were a personal season high.
In an effort to change his hitting fortunes Bolden chose not to have any music played before he came to the plate.
"Allen has been fighting against himself a little bit," said Forehand. "With two pretty good games hopefully it will get him back on track."
M.L. Williams, Wilson, Logan Hostettler, Bolden and Butler each had two hits in the first game.
In game one USC Upstate scored one run in the third and two in the fourth on six hits.
Senior right-hander Brandon McClurg started for the Bisons and picked up his second win in three decisions. He pitched all seven innings. Only one of the three runs he gave up was earned. He struck out three and did not walk a batter.
Game two started out differently for the Bisons. They spotted USC Upstate two runs in the third inning.
Tennyson Dodd singled in the fourth inning for the Bisons first hit.
The Bisons scored three runs in the fifth inning and added four in the eighth to ice the game.
Wilson, Dodd, Branden Cadavid and Jay Moreland each had two hits for the Bisons.
Junior right-hander Josh Smith, 2-0, threw seven innings. He scattered four hits and only one of the two runs was earned. He struck out five and walked two.
Senior right-hander Kyle Tognazzini pitched the final two innings. He struck out three of the seven batters he faced. He gave up one hit and did not walk a batter for his fourth save of the season.
"Josh was cruising pretty good but Togs was fresh," said Forehand.
The Bisons have evened their overall record at 8-8, 5-1 in the A-Sun. USC Upstate fell to 5-9, 1-5 in the conference.
"We would like to be 6-0 in the conference, but 5-1 is a good start," said Forehand. "Every weekend is tough. We have had good pitching the last couple of weekends and the hitting is starting to come around. It is exciting when you can put it all together."
Tuesday at 4 p.m. Evansville visits the Lipscomb campus. The Bisons will play Samford Wednesday at 3.
They will play their second straight home A-Sun series against Stetson Friday, Saturday and Sunday.

Los Angeles, California (CNN) -- Michael Jackson's three children did something recently they've never before done: signing their autographs on something to be sold.
Blanket, Paris and Prince Jackson put their names on a designer belt produced as a tribute to their late father and to raise money for the Jackson family museum planned for Gary, Indiana.
The merchandising deal for the crystal-encrusted belt is also a first -- the trustees of the Michael Jackson estate authorizing the Jackson family to produce and sell memorabilia in the pop star's name.
Katherine Jackson dropped her challenge for control of her son's estate last October, but her husband still has a legal objection pending in probate court.
"This is a truly one-of-a-kind opportunity," said Jerry Olivarez, the Jackson family friend who brought the deal together. "I know of no other item that has ever been made available to the public that has been signed by both the parents and children of Michael Jackson."
The youngest, who was born in 2002, signed his name in true "John Hancock" style, taking up the most room with large block letters spelling "BLANKET."
Prince, 13, helped his younger brother by adding "Jackson" below his first name.
Paris, 12, showed flair with her signature, using a heart to dot her "i" and giving her "r" a long, flowing branch.
Grandparents Katherine and Joe Jackson sat next to each other on a sofa in the Jackson's Encino, California, home to add their autographs to the "artist proof" of the belt.
The leather belt was designed by Simon Tavassoli and a limited run of 7,000 are being handmade at his Newport Beach, California, studio. Each unsigned belt will retail for $1,500, he said.
The only belt signed by the three children goes on auction Thursday night, Tavassoli said.
