Samuel Mahood
I am looking for descendants of a Samuel Mahood who emigrated from Northern Ireland to America. He came from Glenwhirry and had a daughter who became a Mrs Riatt. She had 3 children, that I know of, two girls and a boy. The two girls had scarlet fever in either late 1916 or early 1917. I think that both of them recovered. She then became ill.
Samuel had a brother who came to Australia named James and I think another brother William John whom I know nothing about. Samuel also had a cousin called James Mahood who came to Australia as well. Both James Mahood's were in Warrnambool at one time.
Samuel's lived in Wilkinsburg, Pa.U.S.A.
I am hoping that one of Mrs Riatt's descendants see this and respond.
Descendants of Thomas Dillon and Mary Argon
Looking for information about Thomas Dillon and Mary Argon or any of their descendants.
I believe that the following are their chilren
Catherine - possibly born 1807 and died 1831, this is all I have.
David, born 1810, died 1886, buried Moama. Married Mary Crowe. I have their children and some descendants, also more detailed information and some headstone photographs.
Eleanor born about 1819, died 1887 Wagga Wagga. Married Patrick Fennell. Have a list of their children and some descendants with some headstone photographs, but not much else.
Thomas, 1813 - possibly 1894- I believe he married a Mary Veale Glanville. Seeking more information.
John, 1814 - 1859. Buried Albury. Seeking more information
Ann, 1816. This is all I have. Seeking more information
Cornelius - 1820 - 1823. Can anyone clarify this one?
Edward (possibly Edward Michael_ - 1821 - 1907
Henry - 1821 - 1860. buried Albury.
I have some vague information about Thomas and Mary before they arrived in Australia but would like to make contact with anyone who can help with this as well.
Descendants of Isaac Guley and Mary Ann Horton
I would like to make contact with other people researching the descendants of Isaac Guley and Mary Ann Horton. I have quite a lot of information regarding some of their children. Their children were Tamar, Thomas, Elizabeth, Susannah, Richard, John and James.
Richard was my great grandfather.
So far I have not found where Isaac is buried, somewhere near Millicent is as close as I have got. Any information about this would be very welcome. Tantanoola seems a possibility.
My information about Elizabeth is almost non existent.

7-Year-Old Bombing Victim Undergoes 11th Surgery [VIDEO]
The younger sister of the 8-year-old boy killed in the Boston Marathon bombings has undergone what her family calls a "milestone" 11th operation on her left leg, which she lost below the knee.
The family says in a statement that the operation Wednesday on 7-year-old Jane Richard at Boston Children's Hospital closed the wound and will allow for the fitting of a prosthesis.
The family says Jane also has had to deal with infections and faces more surgeries.
Her brother, Martin, died in the April 15 explosions.
Their parents, Bill and Denise, were also injured but were released after a week in the hospital. Denise Richard has still not recovered sight in one eye. Bill Richard is healing from shrapnel wounds and burns but has not yet completely recovered from hearing loss.

Liberty News
Students attend See You at the Pole rally
|Students represented their home states and countries at the rally
More than 2,000 Liberty University students gathered in front of Arthur S. DeMoss Learning Center for the annual See You at the Pole (SYATP) rally on Sept. 27, the night before thousands of students across the country met at their schools' flagpoles to pray.
Liberty's rally is one of the largest SYATP gatherings globally.
SYATP rallies started in 1990 when 10 students desired to pray for their high school in Texas. Now millions of students gather around the world on the fourth Wednesday in September. Liberty has participated in the event since 1990.
Six years ago, Liberty started the unique tradition of holding SYATP the night before in order to pray for the students who attend rallies nationwide the next morning.
"The event started as a response to pray for all of the high school students and friends of students who are now at college at Liberty. We want to pray for SYATP before it happens the next morning as a pre-rally," campus pastor Michael Miller said.
Liberty students split up into groups representing their home states or countries to pray for their neighbors and for local needs. All 50 states and 10 countries were represented.
The hour opened with worship from the Campus Praise Band as students prepared their hearts to petition the Lord. Students from the Student Government Association and Office of Student Leadership guided prayer for government, school athletics, teachers, administration, youth pastors, school outreach, and salvation of friends and families back home.

Dual use potential of life sciences research
Code of conduct for risk assessment and risk mitigation
Research and development in the life sciences have crucially contributed to today's progress and improvement of living conditions. At the same time, findings in the life sciences often run the risk of being misused to the detriment of society and environment. This "double applicability" of scientific findings is described as the "dual use dilemma".
The potential for misuse of scientific findings is especially obvious for research on pathogenic microorganisms and toxins: on the one hand, research results regarding transmissibility, pathogenesis and genomics of pathogenic biological agents are indispensable to prevent the agents' spread and proliferation and to enable or improve the treatment of infection and exposure to toxins. On the other hand, these results can also potentially be misused to cause harm to humans, animals or plants.
It is therefore necessary for institutions dealing with pathogens and toxins – such as the Robert Koch Institute (RKI) – to establish a code of conduct which
- on the one hand, preserves freedom of research that benefits society and
- on the other hand, prevents the distribution of information and research results that could harm society and the environment.
The code of conduct became effective on 8 May 2012 and was updated on 25 March 2013 (English version published on 14 June 2013).

Big 12 Campus Correspondent
The glove pops as a 95-mile per hour fastball blazes through the zone, milliseconds before the bat waves helplessly late.
Strike three.
On the mound, Texas Tech junior pitcher Trey Masek finishes his follow through, and then simply holds his glove up, asking for the ball back to begin work on the next hitter.
This scene has unfolded 63 times this season, and is a small sample of the work of an ace.
"It's always good to be viewed as the team's ace," Masek said. "I really relish that role and I like having the guys on the team and coaches look to me in that role. At the same time, I know I'm going to get every team's best, so it just motivates me to be the best that I can week in and week out."
An ace is exactly what the Red Raiders have in Masek. Ending the regular season with a 5-1 record, Masek pitched well enough to win eight of his ten starts, thanks in part to a 1.52 earned run average.
But despite the on field success, Masek has an even bigger impact with the younger Red Raiders.
"We're one of the youngest teams in the country," Masek said. "I feel like for me to come in and have the success I've had this year has been really good for those guys to see. I feel like I've done a good job leading by example, both on and off the field."
Senior pitcher Jerad McCrummen agrees, and sheds a little light on Masek's impact on the team, even when he isn't on the mound.
"Trey is loose in the clubhouse, and I think you have to have that," McCrummen said. "He does a great job of balancing everybody out by making jokes, and then he shows that when game-time comes around, he's serious and he goes to work."
With 25 newcomers to the Texas Tech baseball program, the impact on younger ball players isn't lost on the senior McCrummen.
"As upperclassmen we don't realize how much the young guys look up to us," McCrummen said. "When you have someone like Trey who has had the success he has had, and you see him never take a day off and work hard, it really sets an example."
Masek set an example early in the year by being one of the best Texas Tech has seen. Setting the bar high, he was the first Red Raider in over 12 years to log at least eight innings of scoreless baseball in his first four starts. This streak included 32.1 scoreless innings, along with 18.1 innings without a walk. After missing a stretch of three starts due to an injury, Masek picked up right where he left off.
"It was a really good start, and I couldn't have dreamed of having a better start," Masek said. "I think just coming back and finding my groove again was important, especially at this point in the season when we are going to need some good starts on the mound, and hopefully making some noise in the Big 12 tournament."
Masek is enjoying the best season of his career, and credits much of his success to first-year pitching coach Ray Hayward.
"I would put Coach Hayward up against any pitching coach in the country, and a godsend to the Red Raider program," Masek said. "He's a great pitching coach, and knows every one of his pitchers inside and out. From a personal standpoint, you can contribute a lot of my success this year to him for helping me. Whenever I get out of sync, he is right there helping me figure out what I'm doing wrong, and go back to attacking hitters and getting outs."
While getting outs, Masek's performance hasn't gone unseen. A former Big 12 Pitcher of the Week, Masek was recently ranked the No. 81 prospect for the upcoming Major League Baseball Draft, by MLB.com. While lofty rankings might get to some pitchers, Masek is taking a more distant approach.
"It's an easy thing to get distracted with," Masek said. "One thing I have prided myself on this year is just trying to keep a level head about it, and stick my head in the sand when it comes to those ratings. Just knowing as long as I go out there, pitch well, and get wins for my team, the other stuff will take care of itself."
After wrapping up the regular season, Masek looks to continue his momentum into the postseason, and then into the MLB Draft. And true to form, he approaches this the same way as he would when attacking any other batter.
Throw a strike, finish the job, and begin work on the next task to come.

That really isn't how it seemed beforehand, she got trounced fairly easily against that Behemoth soldier, but absolutely wipes the floor with him after she recovers.
An Aoi/Hilda contract would be golden, though I'm not sure how the specifics would work since Aoi is cooperating with a "god."

If that is a demon school filled with demons.
The main group needs a power-up/training of some sort, unless these demons are low class ones and can be defeated w/o training.
Maybe the demons will act civilize and be good, and only a few them will act out. Oga, Hilda, Toujou, Aoi, and Izuma are the only ones capably of taking them all on if they are the same levels as those other guys.
Aoi grandfather train the girls, Saotome work with the Boys, and the other old dude work with the students from his school. (Horsemen)

So, when it was revealed who Behemoth was, I literally went, "Oh Shit!"
... yet as I thought about it, this manga continues its gags, even with Behemoth, as I thought it would... one, you think of anyone called Behemoth as being a giant... and instead we get this funny-looking little old man (and I assume its his demonic power that gives him the name Behemoth). Secondly... Behemoth is obviously going to Oga's hardest fight yet... and upon first meeting the old guy, Oga gives him about 10 seconds worth of attention before going "Not interested"
But when the three strongest human fighters we know strike first, it's obvious Behemoth should NOT be taken lightly... and it being a school for demons in the end was just LOL.

Oh wow Behemont's outer appearance a bir reminds me of Oga so I thought he is his relative but it turned out to be totally different person so I was in a bit shock there. So now that Behemont built up new school... for demons? Does that mean that we are going to see NEW awesome demon students that will going to challenge againist Oga's group? That would be interesting to see that but it would be more interesting if Oga's group goes to Behements school where demons and his group mixed with each other lol.
I also can't wait to see what kind of teachers that En's personal servants going to be. Satura is probably going to be physical education teacher if something like that would happen and then Izebella fits more like History or Literature teacher and I'm sure Yolda going to be arts teacher <3 Ahh I can't wait to see what will be happen within upcoming chapters :3
Ah before I forget, I wonder if the principal of St.Ishiyama, Isurugi Genma, have grand-daughter or son since Itousai have Aoi as his grand-daughter. Then that means we will also going to be introduced with strong character. (ps: it would be so epic if Toujou turns out to be his grandson LOL =))

Miranda Kerr Takes Flynn to Orlando Bloom's on His 3rd Birthday
Miranda Kerr braves the rain as she steps out with her son Flynn and heads to her ex Orlando Bloom's home on Monday morning (January 6) in New York City.
The 30-year-old model is celebrating Flynn's third birthday today and they arrived at Orly's house for a party. Actors dressed as a pirate and a princess were seen arriving at the party with plenty of props and balloons!
"I give extra thought to my carry-on luggage to ensure I have my favorite books, coloring pencils and pads, and as he loves, loves, loves classical music, I make sure my iPod is charged so we can listen to music together," Miranda recently said about traveling with her son. "It's also important to prepare his food for the flight so I take a little bag with his meals and snacks."
30+ pictures inside of Miranda Kerr heading to Flynn's birthday party…

Ravens general manager Ozzie Newsome and his likely successor (some day), director of player personnel Eric DeCosta, met with the media right after the Ravens selected Georgia defensive lineman DeAngelo Tyson with their final pick of the 2012 draft.
They seemed pleased with the draft, in general, but preoccupied with their next task: signing undrafted free agents. The Ravens have done well in that area but face a unique challenge this season. According to DeCosta, only three players on their 150-player board went undrafted (and all had medical issues). Usually, 20 to 25 go unpicked, and the Ravens then focus on them when trying to come to free-agent deals.
Coach John Harbaugh was busy working with scouts to figure out whom the Ravens will make their first calls to. The frenzied signing period begins right when the draft ends. Generally, the Ravens have looked for depth on special teams and along the lines with their signees.
Newsome said the Ravens will come to agreements with all the undrafted players they want to sign by Monday, and that Harbaugh will convene a minicamp starting May 11.
Other quick notes from the session:
- The Ravens picked four offensive players and four defensive players. That wasn't by design, but it does reflect their feeling that the team is balanced at this point.
- Newsome and DeCosta offered thoughts on today's picks, saying that Gino Gradkowski's versatility was important because they wanted a guy who could be on the 45-man game-day roster and play two spots. They like Asa Jackson because you can never have enough cornerbacks (or guys with return ability) and think safety Christian Thompson can help on special teams. Wide receiver Tommy Streeter was a rare combination of height and speed that the coaches are anxious to work with, while Tyson was important because, again, you need options along the defensive line.
- Interestingly, Newsome acknowledged shifting some of the organization's scouting focus to smaller schools. Gradkowski, Thompson and Jackson come from outside the FBS, though Gradkowski and Thompson transferred from large schools. (Matt Vensel will take a deeper look at this in his story for tomorrow's paper.)
- DeCosta said the Ravens had to "manufacture some runs" this year during the draft, as they were forced to shift on the fly more often than in the past. "We had some guys we liked and they got picked," he said.
- Newsome praised the other teams in the AFC North for improving in the draft. (I'm not sure why I'm reporting that to you; it'd really be news only if he had done the opposite.)
- As to why the Ravens did not draft a middle linebacker – because, in case you hadn't heard, Ray Lewis is old for a football player – Newsome said the team is fine with its current group there (Jameel McClain, Dannell Ellerbe, Albert McClellan and Brendon Ayanbadejo.)

Friend and Foe
My thanks to James for letting me take a little time over here at Astros County. As most of you know from reading his blog this year, we've tried to do something to mark the times when the Cards and Astros get together, reminisce about old times, and throw the ball around this season. I also want to thank James for being one of the first blogs to commit to our new Baseball Bloggers Alliance, a group that numbers close to 40 now. Be watching for more from that group after the season.
So as the Astros and Cardinals get together for late-season baseball, what do we have? This series is lacking some of the drama and high stakes that has marked their relationship in the past. I think I speak for most of Cardinal Nation when I say that we've always had a lot of respect and admiration for the Astros organization and their players. The rivalry has been intense in the past, but it's always been professional. So while the pennant race isn't over and a sweep by the Astros might change some minds about the season, the gap between the two teams does lessen the drama somewhat.
When last we saw each other, the Cardinals had just lost a shutout to Bud Norris but had won the series anyway. They stood a half-game ahead of the Cubs while the Astros were in third, just 4 1/2 back. It looked like a great pennant race was shaping up.
Being that my focus is fairly myopic on the team in red, I'm not sure exactly what happened to the Astros, but the Cardinals kicked it into another gear. They are 14-4 since that shutout back on August 2. The offense has kicked into gear as they've assimilated Matt Holliday and figured out the best ways to use Julio Lugo. The pitching staff, which had been strong all year, continued to go well and with a number of off days, the Cardinals were able to skip the #5 starter a couple of times. Not having Todd Wellemeyer especially on the bump increased the Cardinals chances five-fold.
Right now, there just aren't a lot of weak spots in the lineup. Tony LaRussa continues to mix and match somewhat, but the lineups have been much more stable after the Holliday trade, with a regular grouping of Albert Pujols, Holliday, Ryan Ludwick, and Mark DeRosa. Usually Yadier Molina, whose bat sometimes gets overlooked due to his defensive prowness, is right after that group. The middle infield of Skip Schumaker, Brendan Ryan and Lugo on occasion have the ability to get on base for the big guys as well as deliver a key hit when necessary.
The schedule doesn't favor the Astros either, as you will see all of the top Cardinal pitchers in this series. Adam Wainwright will go in the opener. Waino has been just spectacular, right at the top of the league in wins and a nice 2.61 ERA. His curveball has been an amazing weapon for him this year, freezing hitters on a regular basis. He currently has a streak of 24 games where he's gone at least six innings, so he's been able to stay in ball games.
The middle game will feature Joel Pineiro, who has taken this whole "keep the ball on the ground" to new heights while fashioning an ERA just a little above 3. The ERA would look even better if you factor out the 7 runs in 5 innings that he allowed to the Mets at the beginning of the month. That kind of hiccup, which was a regular occurrence last year, hasn't happened much at all this year, though the potential always lurks for it. However, he's only allowed over three runs in a game five times this year, and three of those were in May. He won't strike out many, but he won't walk anyone either, which can make for a quick game.
Finally, on Thursday Chris Carpenter takes the hill. You know Carpenter. Take everything I said about Wainwright and add about 10%. If it wasn't for his three weeks on the DL in the early part of the season, he might have overtaken Tim Lincecum in the Cy Young talks. He's 13-3 with a 2.27 ERA and has been, at least to Cardinal fans, a joy to watch on the mound this season. It's made the agony and the waiting for the last two years worthwhile.
I know I'm a hopeless homer, but the rotation shakes out to make it very favorable for the Cards to win the series. However, Houston always plays St. Louis tough, so the predictions and projections are worth about the paper they are printed on. (And since we aren't using paper....) Wandy Rodriguez has been a terror for Cardinal hitters this year, and you never count out Houston in a game Roy Oswalt starts. I know it's going to be a fun series to watch.

Thanks for the insight. I've always appreciated the respectful rivalry between our two teams. In fact, I would have to say that I have never hated anyone with more respect than I respectfully hate the Cards.
I'm looking forward to great series. I'll be counting (and cheering for) Pujols' BB's.

Totally agree. My view of the Cardinals has evolved from Blind Hatred to Grudging Respect. I disrespectfully, and borderline-blasphemously, hate the Cubs. But I think most Cubs fans hate the Cubs, too, so it's okay.

Hey, who doesn't hate the Cubs? We can all agree on that, right?
I think it helps that both teams have classy individuals and people that play the game the right way. The 'Stros have had Biggio and Berkman and Ausmus during this rivalry and the Cards have had Rolen and Pujols.
Nobody's flashy, they just come out and play ball hard. The nation still doesn't know what it missed by not watching the NLCS in '04 or '05.

Last year the Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival used technological trickery to make it look as if Tupac Shakur had been brought back to life. So what do you do for an encore to one of pop music's biggest magic shows? Coachella organizers have turned to reunited Brit-pop act Blur and one of L.A.'s longest-running rock acts in the Red Hot Chili Peppers to anchor its 2013 festival.
Blur will be joined by reunited countrymates the Stone Roses, rock act the Yeah Yeah Yeahs, legend Lou Reed, French pop band Phoenix and Trent Reznor's How to Destroy Angels at the top of the bill for the dual Coachella festivals, set for the weekends of April 12 and April 19 in the desert city of Indio. Other upper-tier artists include Modest Mouse, a double-dose of Nick Cave (performing with Grinderman and the Bad Seeds), Yeasayer and Skrillex project Dog Blood.
Held at the Empire Polo Grounds since its 1999 inception, Coachella has a reputation for presenting a heavily curated lineup that connects the dots among hitmakers, underground artists and those on the comeback trail, all within an unique desert setting that's increasingly becoming more resort-like, with upscale options to match (at the highest end of the VIP configurations there are $6,500 air-conditioned tents).

While 16 teams compete in the NBA playoffs, the Philadelphia 76ers sit at home left to stew over how a season that started with such promise unraveled so dramatically.
While 16 teams compete in the NBA playoffs, the Philadelphia 76ers sit at home left to stew over how a season that started with such promise unraveled so dramatically.
It would be easy to blame all the woes of a 34-48 campaign on Andrew Bynum, and while his large absence in the middle was a big reason for the Sixers' struggles, there are many reasons why this year was one to forget in south Philadelphia.
There were awful free-agent signings, a coach who admitted he didn't feel like coaching any longer around Christmas and a former No. 2 overall draft pick who again failed to take big steps forward.
The biggest blunder by far was the decision to give a two-year contract to Kwame Brown, who has to be in the discussion of worst No. 1 picks in NBA draft history, with the second year a player option. One of the many horrible personnel decisions made by Michael Jordan, Brown was picked by the Washington Wizards in front of All-Stars and Olympians Tyson Chandler and Pau Gasol in 2001.
Not only did Brown's long history of laziness make signing him a bad move by the Sixers, but there was no reason why they needed another big man with Spencer Hawes and Lavoy Allen already on the roster. What did the Sixers get out of Brown for the $2.8 million they paid him? Twenty two appearances in all, while many games he remained on the bench as "did not play, coach's decision." With Brown all but certain to exercise his player option, the Sixers will be forced to negotiate a buyout with him because he is not the kind of player you want around a young team.
While Nick Young was far more productive than Brown, he was another player with questionable character that Doug Collins, who had final say on personnel moves, chose to bring in. Throughout his career, Young has never had a problem scoring, averaging 11.4 points per game for three teams during a six-year career, but scoring seems to be the only thing he cares about and that reflects in his other career numbers — he has averages of 1.9 rebounds, one assist, .5 steals and .2 blocks over that time. That didn't change in Philadelphia, but the Sixers gave him a one-year deal so he won't be back.
That Collins chose to resign at the end of the season three years into a four-year deal that paid him $4.5 million annually wasn't a big surprise. Collins had never lasted more than three years at any of his previous three coaching stops, but it's quite disturbing that he told the media last week that he knew around Christmas that he no longer wanted to coach. Over the past few months he repeatedly preached about how he put his all into his job, staying up nights trying to think of better ways to do his job or get more out of his players, while chastising his players for not doing the same. After a loss to Orlando in February, Collins delivered a tirade about how his team didn't give enough effort while he was expending all his energy. You really have to wonder how truthful he was being after he mentally quit on his team less than three months into the season.
The only comfort I can take about Evan Turner was that no player drafted after him at No. 2 overall in 2010 has become a perennial All-Star. Yes, Indiana's Paul George has made an All-Star team and is a very good player, but he was never in the discussion at No. 2. What frustrates most fans about Turner is his questionable shot selection, an inconsistent effort and the inability to progress to being an impact player his draft position says he should be. There's no guarantee Turner will be back either as a new coach and general manager may try to trade him in the offseason.
Now to Bynum, who draws the ire of most for this season's failures.
Trading for him in the first place was a gamble because of his injury history and questionable work ethic. Fully understanding that when healthy Bynum is one of the top-five centers in the NBA, the price of Andre Iguodala, Nicola Vucevic, Moe Harkless and a 2015 first-round pick was way too much. Ending the relationship with Iguodala was the right move because the Sixers weren't going to go any further with him, but Vucevic was a player who had a variety of skills, Harklass had just been chosen in the first round by the Sixers and future first-round picks are a valuable commodity. Of course, everyone knows the outcome as Bynum never played a minute thanks to two balky knees, the right one injured bowling while he was supposed to be rehabbing the left knee. Now Bynum is a free agent, after collecting more than $16 million from the 76ers, and he's looking for a big payday. Will the Sixers try to bring him back? A two-year deal with an option for a third year might make sense, but if Bynum is looking for a max contract the Sixers have to let him go.
Where do the Sixers go from here? They'll have more than $20 million in cap relief, but it's hard to see free agents like Dwight Howard or Chris Paul being interested in coming to Philadelphia. What they can't do is take another gamble or make mistakes in free agency like they did a year ago.

JOHNSON CITY, Tenn. (Oct. 14, 2011) – The ETSU men's basketball team will begin official preseason workouts later today, with a practice session scheduled for 6:30 p.m. inside the ETSU/MSHA Athletic Center.
The Buccaneers, who open their 2011-12 season with an exhibition game against Tusculum on Oct. 29 at 4 p.m., will begin their regular season with a road matchup on Nov. 12 against Atlantic Coast Conference foe Virginia Tech. Game time for that contest with the Hokies is set for 2 p.m.
"We're excited to get things rolling," said ETSU head coach Murry Bartow, whose team is coming off a 24-win season in 2010-11. "We have a lot of questions to answer with the graduation of three really important players from last year, but we like the talent and potential of the guys we have here now. As a team, we're ready to get to work."
ETSU will open its home portion of the regular season schedule on Tuesday, Nov. 15 against former Southern Conference rival Appalachian State. Tip time for that contest is set for 7 p.m.
Season tickets are currently on sale and can be purchased by calling 423-439-ETSU (3878), or by visiting ETSUBucs.com and clicking on the ticket office link.
For more on the upcoming season, visit ETSUBucs.com and click on the men's basketball link. On that site, fans will find extensive statistical information, as well as articles previewing the upcoming season. For example, the story below is also available at ETSUBucs.com:
2011-12 Men's Basketball Season Preview
While posting its highest RPI since the 2003-04 season, head coach Murry Bartow led the ETSU men's basketball team to another successful season in 2010-11, a campaign that included 24 wins and ultimately ended with a run to the semifinals of the CollegeInsider.com Postseason Tournament.
Led by seniors such as Atlantic Sun Conference Player of the Year Mike Smith (Vandalia, Mo.) and all-conference performer Micah Williams (Manchester), the Bucs enjoyed impressive road wins at Atlantic 10 Conference member Dayton and Southeastern Conference foe Mississippi State, while also finishing second in the A-Sun Conference standings. Along with Smith and Williams, fellow senior Justin Tubbs (Trussville, Ala.) continued to impress fans with his high-flying dunks, which twice landed him as the No. 1 play of the day on ESPN's SportsCenter and earned him a spot in the national slam dunk championship.
Unfortunately for the Bucs, Smith, Williams and Tubbs have departed, leaving the team with the unenviable task of having to replace over 42 points of offensive production from a year ago – equal to 60 percent of the team's scoring in 2010-11.
The Bucs will begin looking for those offensive numbers from returning starters such as senior guard Adam Sollazzo (Tampa) and senior forward Isiah Brown (Miami, Fla.), while senior forward Tommy Hubbard (Boston) – a 2010 A-Sun all-conference and all-tournament performer – will return to the floor after taking a medical redshirt season a year ago. Other returning players looking to improve their production will include junior guards Sheldon Cooley (Tampa) and Jarvis Jones (Memphis), junior forwards J.C. Ward (Marietta) and Lukas Poderis (Tampa), and redshirt freshman point guard Ryan Woumn (Lynn, Mass.).
The Bucs have also added a talented recruiting class that includes three true freshman and one junior college transfer. As opposed to last season – when the team returned a bevy of talented and experienced players – the younger and more inexperienced Buccaneers will face more questions than usual this season when they take the floor to open the 2011-12 campaign at Virginia Tech on Nov. 12.
When it comes to experienced players, Sollazzo's return to the point guard position is a plus, especially after a junior season in which he started 28 games and averaged a strong 9.2 points and 4.0 assists. In addition, the team could gain some needed depth at that spot as Woumn begins his collegiate career.
Around the rest of the perimeter, Jones gives the team a solid shooting threat from outside and Cooley will once again provide an ability to slash to the basket on the offensive end. Meanwhile, newcomers Marcus Dubose (Hartsville, S.C.) and Rashawn Rembert (Tampa, Fla.) bring with them resumes that are full of offensive accolades and should be expected to provide some firepower as well. In fact, Dubose is a strong candidate to be in the starting five early on in the season.
Hubbard will return after sitting out last season with various injuries, and is expected to continue to build his reputation as a tenacious defensive performer and emerging offensive star. Two years ago, Hubbard was an all-conference pick and led the Bucs with 13.9 points and 8.2 rebounds per game.
Meanwhile, Brown completes an impressive trio of experienced and talented Bucs that includes Sollazzo and Hubbard. Last season, Brown finished fourth on the team in scoring with 10.3 points a contest, while leading the squad with 7.2 boards per game. This year, look for Brown to make a run at all-conference honors.
Along with Brown and Hubbard, Ward and Poderis return to give the team some added depth, while freshmen Lester Wilson (Knoxville) and John Walton (Memphis) give the team an in-state, one-two punch with a great deal of athleticism.
The Bucs will be challenged by early-season, non-conference road matchups against teams such as Tennessee, Virginia Tech and Clemson, while also hosting games against quality mid-major programs such as Appalachian State, Troy and James Madison.
ETSU's conference slate will feature the usual suspects, with home and away contests against Atlantic Sun rivals such as Belmont, Lipscomb and Jacksonville.
Final Analysis
Questions will surround the Bucs this year as they begin the season, but with a significant amount of returning players and a group of recruits with significant potential, the team has a chance to be battle-tested once conference play begins in earnest at the start of the 2012 calendar year.
The key will be whether Hubbard can return to his 2009-10 season form, whether Brown and Sollazzo can take another positive step up in their offensive production, and whether the team's newcomers can provide some much-needed offensive firepower.
More ETSU Notes:
Projected Starters: Having started and played significant minutes over the last three seasons, expect to see Sollazzo, Brown and Hubbard in the lineup to start the season … This would leave the shooting guard and either a guard/forward position open on the floor … The battle for those two starting positions, and any remaining slots in the bench rotation are simply up in the air, with Dubose, Cooley, Jones and Ward early favorites to see playing time.
Anticipated Strengths: A year ago, the Bucs held their opposition to just 64.4 points per game, finishing second in that category among A-Sun teams … ETSU will add back its best defender in Hubbard, so the Bucs will have some potential to remain solid on the defensive end … With experienced inside players such as Brown and Hubbard, and a 6-6 point guard in Sollazzo, the team should also be able to hold its own on the glass and scoring inside.
Anticipated Weaknesses: With so many question marks on the offensive end with the loss of Smith, Williams and Tubbs, the most glaring questions will come when the Bucs are trying to score the basketball … In addition, the team has lost its top three 3-point field goal shooters, leaving that area as a major weakness … Only time will tell which returning players will step up to that task, and which newcomers can come in to provide immediate dividends.
All-American Candidates: Hubbard is the team's only returning all-conference player, and two years ago he ranked among the nation's leaders in double-doubles, posting 13 on the season … He would be the most likely player to make a run at All-American.
All-Conference Candidates: Sollazzo, Brown and Hubbard have all shown the ability to play at a level worthy of all-conference selection, but consistency is the key for each of these players if they wish to earn a spot on that list in 2011-12.

CLINTON, MS - Senior quarterback Tommy Reyer scampered in from eight yards out in the first overtime to give the Choctaws a 33-27 win over Millsaps in the 12th annual "Backyard Brawl" at Robinson-Hale Stadium on Saturday night.
In the 50th meeting between MC and the Majors, the Choctaws needed extra time to win the third game in-a-row between the cross-town rivals. It's the first time either team has won three straight since MC won from 1948-1950.
Overtime was forced when Millsaps missed a 37-yard field goal to end regulation. The Majors took the first possession of extra time and turned the ball over on downs.
The Choctaws moved to the 10-yard line on a pass interference call against the Majors. Reyer needed just two plays to score the game-winner from eight yards out.
The Athens, AL native rushed for 42 yards on 20 carries, while passing for 190 yards and two touchdowns.
Senior running back Steven Knight led the Choctaws with 97 yards rushing on 14 carries. Overall, MC ran for 177 yards 54 rushes with two scores.
The Choctaws opened the scoring on a 38-yard field goal by junior Chris Campbell and extended the lead to 10-0 with a 21-yard touchdown run by senior Qin Mobley.
Millsaps would score 13 unanswered points to take a three-point lead into the halftime break. Freshman Beau Brady nailed two field goals, while quarterback Garrett Pinciotti connected with Kegan Joplin for a five-yard touchdown.
Pinciotti finished the game 18-35 for 263 yards and three touchdowns.
Junior Fred Williams caught a 17-yard touchdown pass from Reyer to open the scoring in the second half and give the Choctaws a 17-13 advantage.
Pinciotti led the Majors back with two scoring drives of over 50 yards that ended with touchdown passes, highlighted by a 60-yard scoring toss to Dustin Fawcett.
Reyer connected with junior Randal Pharr for an 18-yard touchdown to cut the lead to 27-24 with 12:22 remaining in the game.
Campbell knotted the game with his second field goal of the game, a 19-yarder, with just 4:14 remaining to set up the final act.
For the game, the Choctaws outgained the Majors, 367-342, with a balanced attack: 177 rushing yards, 190 passing yards.
The kicking game was solid as Campbell made both field goal attempts and senior Jacob Chancellor averaged 38.3 yards per punt with two landing inside the 20.
Senior Jeremy Bertrand led the Choctaws with 10 tackles, including six solo stops. Senior Jarryn Bingham tallied 2.0 TFL and one sack.
The Majors were paced by Jeb White with 10 tackles, including nine solo. Jordan Nolan led the way with 3.0 TFL, while Randy Thackrey and Leland Elchos each recorded sacks.
The Choctaws have now won five of the last six meetings against the Majors with the last three being by a total of 11 points.
MC will face another cross-town rival when they travel to Belhaven on September 10th at 6:00 p.m. at H.T. Newell Field.

While we're pretty content to be salary-earning, driver-license-bearing adults, we sometimes miss the good old days. You know, when getting dressed up meant raiding Mommy's closet and a wild night was spent with your favorite dolls. Now it's more about raiding the piles of forgotten gems at the back of our own closets (though plenty of Mom's '70s hand-me-downs can be found in there) — but the dolls might be about to make a comeback, in the form of Louis Vuitton's ready-to-wear icons: a collection of babes on paper, complete with a closet full of luxury duds.
These are decidedly more high-end than our ratty old American Girl cutouts, and that's okay. In fact, we're arranging our new friends around the table for a luxe tea party as we speak. If that sounds like a good time to you, check out the slideshow — or click here to download the full-size images in a PDF.

Tabletop Trends: Is Black the New White?
I've been seeing a lot more black tableware lately and while I'm sure that it will never replace basic white, I'm beginning to wonder if a new trend is on the rise. Today's black dishware is a far cry from the 80s fusion cuisine look. Like the teapot in the lovely photo above, it's being used with traditional shapes, as well as in handmade pieces, for a more modern, sophisticated feel.
For years I've stuck by my white plates for casual and fancier meals alike. I felt that the simple, unembellished disks were the best choice to let the aesthetics of the food come forward. But lately I've been tempted by the dark side. Matte black dishes are my new white and it's a dramatic, exciting shift!
I really enjoy my large black matte platter and how it emphasizes the graphic shapes and colors of my raw dip appetizer. I scatter brilliant pink and red radishes, crisp circles of green cucumber, a pile of tiny carrots on the black surface and plop a stiff goat cheese dip or homemade hummus off on one side. Ravishing!
The black seems to be warmer, more intimate, than white, and more complex. There's something exotic about black tableware, too, especially the handmade ones. I do have a few preferences when it comes to black dishes, however: they have to matte (the shiny glazes are too glitzy and distracting) and never square (rectangle platers are OK.)
It might be intriguing to consider black for your holiday table this year. The dark surface really pops the colors of winter produce, bringing out the glistening crimson of pomegranates and blood-red beets, the deep green of chards and kales, and the vibrant oranges of squash, mandarines and carrots.
Here are a few matte black dishes I've rounded up, from an inexpensive BB&B set to lovely offerings from Heath Ceramics and La Chamba. Pick up a few pieces and explore your dark side!
• First photo is from the fabulous photographer Anna Williams
• Heath Ceramics, $17.00 – 31.50
• Calvin Klein Kohl, $22.00 -155.00
• La Chambra, $11.50 – 54.95
• Calvin Klein Cargo, $12.50 – 150.00
• Paradiso Black, 16-piece set $59.99 at Bed Bath & Beyond
• Remodelista has a nice roundup here.

Penalty Phase Begins In Arias Trial [VIDEO]
Jurors in Phoenix return to court today to begin deliberating whether the 32-year-old woman they convicted of killing her one-time boyfriend should get the death penalty.
Jodi Arias was found guilty Wednesday of first-degree murder after the jury deliberated for about 15 hours.
The sheer brutality of the attack and previous testimony from the Maricopa County Medical Examiner that Travis Alexander did not die a quick death will be at the heart of the prosecution's argument that Jodi should receive the ultimate punishment for her crime.
Alexander was stabbed and slashed nearly 30 times, shot in the forehead and had slit his throat from ear to ear, leaving the motivational speaker and businessman nearly decapitated. His decomposing body was found in his shower about five days later by friends.
Arias spoke out about the verdict minutes after her conviction Wednesday, telling a TV station that she would "prefer to die sooner than later."
"Longevity runs in my family, and I don't want to spend the rest of my natural life in one place," a tearful Arias told Fox affiliate KSAZ. "I believe death is the ultimate freedom and I'd rather have my freedom as soon as I can get it."
Arias said the verdict was "unexpected" to her "because there was no premeditation on my part,'' she said."The worst outcome for me would be natural life (in prison). I would much rather die sooner rather than later."
Aggravation Phase
Arias, 32, fought back tears as a court clerk read aloud the highly anticipated verdict after a four-month trial in which the jury heard 18 days of testimony from the defendant, saw a series of gruesome crime scene photos and heard a raunchy phone sex chat between Arias recorded with Alexander just weeks before he died.
The next portion of the trial is called the "aggravation phase," and it will focus on whether the jury believes the crime was committed in an especially cruel, heinous and depraved manner. If jurors find the aggravators exist, the next step will be the penalty phase during which the panel will recommend either life in prison or death. The process could take several more weeks to wrap up.
The trial quickly became an Internet sensation and transformed Arias from a little-known waitress to a morbid curiosity and a star of a real-life true-crime drama that the public followed incessantly. The presence of cameras in the courtroom, the advance of Internet streaming video and social media, the salacious details of the case, and the attention it got on cable networks like HLN gave the trial the feel of a celebrity proceeding.

Swansea City manager Michael Laudrup has refused to rule out leaving south Wales, admitting he does not know what the future entails.
Following Swansea's 5-0 League Cup success, their first ever major trophy, rumours have been circulating that Laudrup could depart the Liberty Stadium for one of Europe's big clubs. The former Danish international was non-committal on where his future lies.
The 48-year-old told reporters: "I've said a couple of times that my intention is to stay but, again, who knows about my future?
"Intentions are one thing but who knows? Who knows what they will do next year, honestly 100 per cent? You can have your plans but none of us know, none of us has a crystal ball in life."
Laudrup has been linked to former club Real Madrid, where he won the La Liga title in 1995, and the Dane neither confirmed nor dismissed the possibility of taking over at the Spanish giants at some point in the future.
"My intention is to stay next year. I've never said I do not want to manage a big team one day, it is just not a dream of mine - that's different," he said. "If I go somewhere one day I do, if I don't I don't. It has nothing to do with ambitions. I have ambitions. How can I not after playing at big clubs for 17 years and winning titles?"
Laudrup's current contract at the Liberty Stadium expires at the end of the 2013/14 season, but Swansea chairman Huw Jenkins has expressed his desire to extend his manager's deal by 12 months.
It has been a hugely successful first season in south Wales for Laudrup. His side currently sit ninth in the Premier League table, hoping to eclipse the 11th-place finish achieved by Brendan Rodgers in Swansea's debut top-flight campaign.

There are lots of ways for you to go about finding the perfect tattoo design for you but the best and most logical way to find your design is to join a tattoos website. With the size and expansiveness of the internet today, there really are tons of different designs that you can find by simply searching through Google images until you stumble across something that makes you say, "Well, yea, I guess I like that one". Then you can take that same tattoo to your nearest parlor and watch your artist grimace when you hand him your design.
Or you can kick off your tattoo lifestyle with a little class and luxury, by joining an elite tattoos website where by paying somewhere in the neighborhood of $30 you will instantly have a lifetime membership to thousands of the most quality, unique tattoos designs on the entire internet. Not only will the designs found on one of these tattoos websites be better than the ones found by searching randomly on the internet, but they will also be better than anything found in your local tattoo parlor.
Some of the most popular tattoo websites are, Tattoo Me Now, Chopper-Tattoo, and Tattoo My Brain, each one of these websites have thousands of members and for a small onetime fee you can easily become one too.
One of the features that I really like about all of these tattoos websites is that they are all lifetime membership sites; therefore, after you have paid your fee, you will be able to print, bookmark, combine, and flip through the thousands of designs at your own pace until you find something you really fall in love with. Because the process of finding your personal best tattoo design is a process that should not be rushed, you will now have all the time in world, and not just for your first tattoo, but for every one of them after that too!
No matter when you plan on getting your tattoo, and whether you plan on getting a single, or multiple tattoos, you will always be part of a community when you join a tattoos website. Tattoo Me Now, Chopper-Tattoo, and Tattoo My Brain are all good examples of these websites; however, I personally like Tattoo Me Now the most because of its extremely interactive community, which includes tattoo forums, personal picture postings, videos, and more. No matter which tattoo site you choose to join, you will be grateful. Good luck!

ONE - Don't study too hard. You wouldn't want to miss out on some fun because you were in the library.
TWO - Ice cream is its own food group. Eat lots of it. Preferably with friends instead of studying at the library.
THREE - I'm all out of advice at this wee hour of the morning. Sorry.
The pillows are finished and ready to adorn a college dorm twin bed.
I opted for rick rack instead of a fabric flower. In the end, it all came down to time, and adding rick rack was like 1000 times faster than hand sewing 3 fabric flowers. While the rick rack was a time saver, I have to say I really like it. I'd be happy to have one of these decorating my dorm room.
I'm going to be out of town again for a couple of days. The Italian's parents has reserved some rustic cabins in the mountains for us. Wish me luck roughing it with my little ones.
When I return I promise to make the Jump Rope Dress (!!), and I also have an idea brewing in my brain for a new window treatment for my sewing space. Stay tuned!

Just because he hustles doesn't mean Daniel Murphy will win the second base job. There are concerns about his defensive abilities, and while he has shown glimpses of offensive production, it is still a small window.
The Mets like Rule 5 selection Brad Emaus' potential, and he'll get a nod over Justin Turner because the latter has remaining options.
The book on Emaus is he has adequate range and power potential as he hit ten homers in 309 at-bats for Toronto's Triple A affiliate last summer.
Could he and Murphy share the job in a platoon basis? Absolutely.
Also working in Emaus' favor is his ability to back up David Wright at third. Murphy, of course, can back up Ike Davis at first, so that platoon offers versatility.
Where does that leave Luis Castillo?
The Mets would love to deal him, but aren't close to drawing any interest. Reports are Castillo could have reported in better shape, and although he didn't come to camp early because of a family situation, he didn't tell the Mets what was going on.
Manager Terry Collins said he would have preferred Castillo report early, but said that while not being aware of Castillo's situation. A little communication would have spared Castillo a dig from his new manager.
Not a good start by Castillo, who has to be flawless to make the team.
I believe the deciding factor at second base is defense. If Murphy/Emaus show they can handle the position, it would go a long way to keeping that platoon over Castillo, whose defense skills are on a decline.

Court Says Feds Don't Have To Reveal Secret Evidence It Gathered Against 'Terror' Suspect Using FISA
from the due-process-what? dept
However, the case has been taking some interesting turns. Late last year, when the Senate was "debating" the renewal of the FISA Amendments Act (a key part of the NSA's surveillance program), Senator (and Senate Intelligence Commission boss) Dianne Feinstein pointed to the Daoud case as evidence for why the FAA needed to be renewed, claiming directly that the FISA Amendments Act was used to stop "a plot to bomb a downtown Chicago bar."
Given that, Daoud's lawyers sought access to the evidence that was obtained via the FISA Amendments Act. This is basic due process. Someone who is accused of a crime is supposed to have access to all of the evidence that was used against him. That was back in May, before the Snowden leaks, and before the revelations that the NSA and other agencies have used questionable surveillance methods to tip off other agencies of people to target, and then had them "launder" the evidence by trying to recreate evidence obtained in a more legal fashion to use against them -- also known as "parallel construction."
Back on August 9th, Daoud's lawyers made a much more thorough request for the evidence obtained via the FAA. As they note, there may be significant problems with the FISA information, including, but not limited to the FISA application for electronic surveillance may fail to establish probable cause that Dauoud was "an agent of a foreign power." As they note, he was an American citizen and high school student in suburban Chicago. They also suggest the FISA application may have contained material falsehoods or omissions and might violate the 4th Amendment. The surveillance also may have violated the FISA law. There are many other reasons they bring up as well.
The Justice Department (of course) argued that it shouldn't have to hand over any of this info, in part because it's classified and in part because they're not going to use that evidence against Daoud.
Unfortunately, the court wasted little time in agreeing with the feds that they don't need to turn over the evidence collected under FISA.
This is troublesome on a variety of levels. First of all, it seems like a clear due process violation, in which you're supposed to be able to see the evidence used against you. Second, it's a victory for "parallel construction," effectively giving the feds a green light to launder illegally obtained evidence, using it to "construct" legitimately obtained evidence. But, more directly, this issue was raised a few months ago, because the US Solicitor General had told the Supreme Court that any defendant who had FISA-collected evidence used in their arrest would have standing to challenge FISA because the government would have to disclose it. And, after it came out that the government wasn't disclosing it, the DOJ promised that, going forward it would provide such information.
Except that it's not doing so here. This is tremendously sketchy. As others are noting, if the evidence was legally obtained and really showed potential threats, why would they hide it?
The government's successful attempt to keep the surveillance secret in the Daoud trial suggests that it either lacks confidence in the constitutionality of the spying or the Justice Department is still struggling to embrace the greater transparency on surveillance recently promised by the Obama administration—or both.And, on top of that, the court has now sanctified this whole practice of abusing surveillance to spy on people, and then laundering the evidence so no one can challenge it. This is terrible, and hopefully an appeal on this particular issue is forthcoming.
