In scratching out a 64-61 win over Maryland Eastern Shore on Saturday evening at the HU Convocation Center, the Hampton University men's basketball team snapped its six-game losing streak.
The Pirates improved to 9-14 overall and 5-5 in the MEAC on the season.
Head coach Edward Joyner Jr. won his 91st career game in the process, becoming the program's all-time winningest Div. I coach – surpassing Steve Merfeld.
Guard Reginald Johnson registered his second straight 20-point game, leading all Pirate scorers with 21 points on 7-for-15 shooting. Guard/forward Dwight Meikle added 16 points and a team-high 11 rebounds for his fourth double-double of the season.
Guard Deron Powers added 11 points and four assists.
The Pirates shot 44.2 percent (23-for-52) from the floor – thanks in large part to a 14-for-25 effort (56.0 percent) in the second half. Hampton scored 25 points off of 16 UMES turnovers, and Hampton held a 26-22 edge in points in the paint.
A layup from Devin Martin with 2:14 left in the game tied the contest at 58-58, before Johnson answered with 1:11 left by converting an acrobatic 3-point play to put the Pirates up 61-58. Dominique Elliott cut that lead to 61-60 with a jumper with 55 seconds left.
But Meikle put his stamp on the game with 42 seconds left, finding space on the fast break before floating in the air, making it look as if he would finger-roll the ball into the hoop, before slamming the ball home with one hand to give the Pirates a 63-60 lead.
The two teams traded free throws down the stretch, but Martin missed both of his 3-pointers in the closing moments to hand the Pirates the hard-fought win.
The UMES led much of the night, though – particularly in the first half. The Hawks opened the game with six straight – thanks to back-to-back 3-pointers from Ryan Andino – before the Pirates cut the lead to 6-5 on a jumper in the paint from junior forward Jervon Pressley.
The Hawks opened the game back up, taking a 22-10 lead at the 8:37 mark after a 3-pointer from Martin. A dunk from Michael Myers and a layup from Devon Walker gave UMES a 29-16 lead with 2:39 left in the half.
But Hampton scored the last seven points of the frame – a jumper and 3-pointer from Meikle and a jumper from Powers – to cut UMES' lead to 29-23 at the break.
That momentum carried into the second half, as the Pirates cut UMES' lead to one on three separate occasions before taking their first lead of the night on a Johnson layup with 15:12 left – putting Hampton up 36-35.
Johnson then hit a trey to put the Pirates up 39-35 at the 13:32 mark.
Johnson added a layup with 13:14 remaining to give the Pirates a 41-37 lead, before UMES went on a 10-1 run to take a 47-42 lead with 10:39 left to play after a dunk from Elliott. Elliott later gave the UMES a 53-48 lead at the 6:29 mark with a free throw.
After a pair of Martin free throws gave the Hawks a 55-50 lead, the Pirates went on a 7-0 spurt, taking a 57-55 lead with 3:13 left to play after a jumper from Powers.
Red Weasel Media was sitting on the baseline to capture all of the high flying action. Go Pirates!

In an effort to align with the USAID Digital Strategy and recognize USAID Missions, Bureaus and partners that are empowering countries in a digital age, USAID launched the 2022 Digital Development Awards (the Digis), the fourth round of these awards. The Digis recognize and celebrate USAID-funded projects and activities that use digital technology to sustain open, secure, and inclusive digital ecosystems in order to improve measurable development and humanitarian-assistance outcomes. After receiving nearly 200 applications from USAID Missions around the world, five winners were selected for the 2022 Digital Development Awards, including USAID/Georgia: Economic Security Program, implemented by DAI.
Georgia is transforming from a goods-based economy to one based on knowledge and innovation. However, the country lacks the regulatory framework and capital investment needed to support rapid, responsive, and equitable digitalization. The USAID/Georgia Economic Security Program (ESP) combines small-business support with on-the-job training and skill-based certification. The program includes a number of training and support opportunities, including on-the-job training and skill-based certification, investment opportunities for Georgian startups, and the Grace Hopper ICT Award to highlight the best and brightest in Georgia’s technology industry.
Additionally, the program's ecosystem approach went beyond addressing workforce and skills development by strengthening market linkages for SMEs. Through efforts to bolster the creative sector, the Georgia Economic Security Program also introduced more than 120 Georgian artisans to global e-commerce via Etsy.
Inspired by local wildlife, Tatia and Toma, two artisans that have benefited from the program’s support, create handmade objects and accessories in their craft studio in Tbilisi. With the support of ESP and Etsy staff, they have been able to upgrade their Etsy store by familiarizing themselves with the use of the marketing and sales functionality provided through Etsy. With their increase in sales, Tatia and Toma have been able to purchase new equipment, refine their artistic skills, and grow their business.
They share, “Now we are much more confident in our decisions. Our future development seems more promising to us, and we have already imagined and outlined a plan for our future business development.”
Private sector engagement has helped drive sustainable business growth for SMEs through the development of individually owned and operated e-commerce sites—in addition to e-sites on Etsy for artisans, which were majority female-owned and operated. The program’s ecosystem development approach places market actors and other value chain stakeholders at the center of the change process and invites them to define problems and co-create solutions, resulting in the long-lasting, sustainable application of Georgia’s intellectual capital.

For our program's Thanksgiving dinner, I baked pumpkin pie.
I would describe the process as a HUGE pain in the ass. First I had to get my dad to bring the can of pumpkin from the US. Then I had to find pans to bake it in... and apparently they don't make normal-sized aluminum pie tins here, or if they do, they're REALLY hard to find. So I had to settle for make pies that were about 1/3rd the size of normal ones. After that I had to find an oven... my host family's works but doesn't have temperature markers on it at all, and my host mom said I would probably either burn the pies or they just wouldn't turn out.
So we headed over to my friend's host family's apartment, where they have an oven that at least has temperature RANGES marked on it. Then we couldn't find a can opener (?!) and I had to go back to my house to get it. Bunches of metric conversions later, the pies were ready to go in. And then the crust got kind of burned on some of them because of poor air circulation.
But they turned out!
And then we just had to get them to the hotel where they were having the dinner... on the way, my friend who was carrying two of them tripped on the broken sidewalk and they went flying! They got kinda busted but were definitely still edible; plus at that point so many things had happened that I mostly just thought it was hilarious.
In the end everyone loved them. We saved one for ourselves and ate it on the weekend, haha.

What is your best memory of WSSU?
My best memory of WSSU would be Homecoming! All the support, love and positive energy from alumni, students, faculty and staff is amazing! Seeing thousands of people coming together, bring their kids and relatives to brag about how awesome WSSU is priceless. To celebrate this wonderful institution through donations, attendance at athletic events as well as fellowshipping on the yard is phenomenal!
What do you love about WSSU?
The one thing I love about WSSU is the family oriented vibe I receive from not only the faculty and staff, but also from the students? There is not a moment that goes by each and every day where I do not see the genuine vibe and care our students have for one another. Wither it is student leaders encouraging other students to get more involved with student activities or students coming together to walk to the football or basketball games to support athletics or senate meetings, together we act as one.
What do you plan on doing after you graduate?
My plans after graduation are to further my education to receive my masters in the field of education. With this goal I plan to teach at a Title 1 school in the Forsyth County region to help leave a legacy in the community of Winston Salem and embrace my love and the importance of my HBCU.
How has WSSU prepared you for the future?
Being that WSSU is a Liberal Arts Institution is has prepared me with the knowledge and skill set in different content areas where I will be able to use that background knowledge and the fundamental skill set to adapt to any job I come across in the future in life.
How has WSSU made a difference in your life?
WSSU has made a huge difference in my life. Getting involved in different organizations such as Greek Life, Housing and Resident Life and Student Government Association has taught m

Maria Theresa monument Maria Theresa monument in Vienna
Maria Theresa Square
The Maria Theresa monument is the most important ruler monument of the Habsburg monarchy in Vienna. It is reminiscent of the Empress Maria Theresa, who ruled from 1740 to 1780, and is since 1888 on the Maria Theresa Square on the Vienna ring road (Castle Square - Burgring) between the then Imperial Museums, in 1891 opened the Kunsthistorisches Museum (Museum of Art History) and in 1889 opened the Natural History Museum (Naturhistorisches Museum), in front of the background of the Museum Quarter, then the imperial stables. This by Tritons and Najad Fountains accompanied Ensemble monument counts to the UNESCO World Heritage Site Historic Centre of Vienna.
Historical Background View from the top (2010)
The Empire of Austria in 1859 and 1866 lost Lombardy and Veneto to the new Kingdom of Italy. It was in 1866 forced to resigne after the defeat of the German war, the Prussians had triggered by violation of the rules of the German Confederation from Germany, which in 1871 was constituted as German Empire under a new empire. In 1867 Emperor Franz Joseph I. in Compromise with Hungary had to agree to the formal division of the empire into a ruled from Vienna cisleithanian and ruled from Budapest transleithanian half of the Empire, with Hungary increasingly presenting itself not as a part of the empire, but as a largely independent state. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Leitha
During the World Exhibition 1873 in Vienna an economic crisis had occurred, the "founders' crash - Gründerkrach" that devalued liberalism as the leading political movement and new mass parties, for the time being, the Christian Social Party, and later the Social Democrats, putting forth. In addition, more and more national movements were felt in the multiethnic state. Those centrifugal and the imperial power eroding tendencies one would counteract by patriotic appeals to splendor and glory of the empire. At the since 1858 under construction and in 1865 opened new Vienna ring road around the old town was offered the chance. On the Maria Theresa Square the center facing adjoining Heldenplatz outside the Hofburg in 1860 and 1865 monuments of the two most important generals of the monarchy were built. For the Maria Theresa square, which with the Heldenplatz should form an Imperial Forum, it was a good occasion to erect a monument to the historical mother of the nation. She had by her marriage to Francis Stephen of Lorraine and his election as emperor, the Roman-German Empire brought back to Vienna and the continuation of the dynasty, now as House of Habsburg-Lorraine, secured. She referred to a time when the development of the monarchy was not dependent on any political party nor on national political considerations, but by the wisdom of the rulers. Her reputation and popularity should radiate to the current empire.
The monument Gypsum model of a draft of the monument Maria Theresa surrounded by the allegories of the cardinal virtues For the execution of the sculptures in 1874 the three sculptors Johannes Benk, Carl Kundmann and Caspar Zumbusch submitted designs. Emperor Franz Joseph I decided for Zumbusch, with his student Anton Brenek around 13 years working on the bronze sculptures, which have a total weight of 44 tons. Carl von Hasenauer designed the architecture of the monument. With the base, the monument covers an area of 632 square meters and is 19.36 m high, on top the seated figure of the Empress with 6 m height. Base and chain pedestal consist of Mauthausen granite from Enghagen in Upper Austria, pedestal and base of brown hornblende granite from Petersburg-Jeschitz at Pilsen in the Czech Republic, the columns of serpentinite from Wiesen near Sterzing in South Tyrol. The program's content for the monument came from Alfred von Arneth, director of the Imperial House, Court and State Archives. The monarch herself sits on her throne at the top, in the left hand a scepter and the Pragmatic Sanction, the State and the Constitutional Treaty, her allowing the rule in the Habsburg lands as woman, saluting with the right hand the people. Around the throne on the cornice are sitting as allegorical personifications of the cardinal virtues of justice, strength, gentleness and wisdom four female figures.
At the four sides of the base each is located a circular field with a relief and before that a freestanding statue in thematic context: The consultants of the Archduchess are represented by Wenzel Anton Kaunitz as a statue and Johann Christoph von Bartenstein, Gundakar Thomas Graf Starhemberg and Florimond Claude of Mercy-Argenteau in relief, the background shows the Gloriette in the garden of Schonbrunn Palace. For the administration stand Friedrich Wilhelm von Haugwitz (statue) and Antal Grassalkovich I, Samuel Brukenthal, Paul Joseph of Riegger, Karl Anton von Martini and Joseph von Sonnenfels in a consulting room in the Imperial Palace. For the military stand Joseph Wenzel I (statue) with Franz Moritz von Lacy, Andreas Hadik of Futak and Franz Leopold of Nádasdy in front of the castle in Wiener Neustadt, in which in 1752 the Theresa Military Academy was established. Science and art are represented by the physician Gerard van Swieten (statue), the numismatist Joseph Hilarius Eckhel, the historian György Pray and the composer Christoph Willibald Gluck, Joseph Haydn and the as child represented Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart in front of the Old University. Consultants Management Military Science and Art On the diagonal axes surround equestrian statues of four commanders from the era of Maria Theresa the monument: Leopold Joseph von Daun (1705-1766), Ludwig Andreas von Khevenhüller (1683-1744), Gideon Ernst von Laudon (1717-1790) and Otto Ferdinand von Abensperg and Traun (1677-1748). Leopold Joseph von Daun Ludwig Andreas von Khevenhüller Gideon Ernst von Laudon Otto Ferdinand von Abensperg and Traun Open base during the renovation (2008).
The monument is being totally renovated since October 2008. In a first step, the base whose granite cladding and the foundation were restored. Under the monument in the course of the work a 600-square-foot brick vault was discovered as a supporting structure that is similar to already known components underneath the equestrian statues on Heroes' Square. In a second step, the stone and metal surfaces are being rehabilitated until probably October 2013.

Students and faculty in UF Law’s Environmental and Land Use Law Program’s Spring Break Field Course explored the diverse marine and coastal ecoregion shared by South Florida and the Bahamian archipelago.
The purpose of the week-long course, led by Tom Ankersen, Florida Sea Grant's Legal Specialist, was to provide students a firm grounding in the law, policy and practice of coastal and marine sustainable development through field-based immersion, practitioner lectures, and reflective discussions.
The group traveled from the intensely developed waterfront of Biscayne Bay to the bustling government center of Nassau in the Bahamas, and then on to the quiet, rural family island of Andros, bounded by the great Bahama Bank and the Tongue of the Ocean. While there is a world of difference between the two neighbors separated by the Gulf Stream, they share a remarkably similar ecosystem facing many of the same threats, and common language of the common law.
This year’s Spring Break Field course furthers the UF Law Conservation Clinic’s South Florida Bahamas ecoregional initiative supported by Florida Sea Grant, and in partnership with the Bahamas National Trust.

Penn Theatre Arts Fall 2015 Mainstage Production
Directed by Dr. James F. Schlatter.
The Theatre Arts Program’s fall production, BURY THE DEAD, written by Irwin Shaw in 1936, is set “in the second year of the war that is to begin tomorrow night.” The scene is an unnamed battlefield somewhere in the world that also serves as the gravesite for six dead American soldiers. About to be interred, the six young soldiers stand up in their shared grave and plead not to be buried. This crisis is the focus of Shaw’s harrowing and deeply moving and provocative play, directed by Theatre Arts faculty member, Dr. James F. Schlatter, Can a war ever end if the dead won’t be buried? The play will be performed by an ensemble company.
Performances:
November 18–21, 7:00pm

Eighth-grader Alexius Pierce made the go-ahead layup in the game's last minute, and junior Diamonne Harris hit four straight free throws in the final 10 seconds as the Syracuse Academy of Science held off Allegany-Limestone, 55-50, in a Class C girls basketball state semifinal at Hudson Valley Community College.
The Section III-champion Atoms (20-4) will play in the 8-year-old program's first state final at 4 p.m. Saturday against Section IX champion Millbrook.
"It feels unbelievable," said Harris, who led all scorers with 20 points. "We worked so hard - day after day - it was all worth it. It feels so good."
"We just willed our way (to the win), said senior leader Lyrik Jackson, who scored 14 points, grabbed eight rebounds and made five steals for the Atoms. "Coach said keep pushing. We didn't want to go home."
SAS, which trailed by six points at the half (32-26) sparked its second-half offense with a pressing defense that forced Allegany-Limestone into 22 turnovers and yielded a dozen steals.
The #SASAtoms also held Gators' star senior center Morgan Davis to 14 points, about five below her season's average. Morgan only had six in the second half.
"Amazing. Just amazing," said #SASCS head coach Reggie Pickard. "I'm still kind of dreaming - like are we here or not, you know? We're doing everything possible to win a championship. We've worked hard for eight years, and here we are."
The Atoms trailed by as many as eight points late in the second quarter but caught the Gators just two minutes into the third using a press that started paying off in turnovers.
"Our pressure has been the key for us all year," Pickard said. "We force turnovers, make the game kind of ugly.
I thought if we pressured a little more in the second half it would harder for them to get the ball to their bigs."
Allegany-Limestone, from Section VI near Olean, still led by two at the start of the fourth quarter, but SAS sophomore Xyel Bradford's 3-pointer put the Atoms ahead, 41-40, with just under 7 minutes left. Pierce hit another huge three with 2:30 left to play that gave SAS a 47-46 advantage.
But the Gators continued to make big baskets, too, and Allegany-Limestone had a 50-49 lead, and the ball, with just under a minute left to play.
On the in-bounds play, Harris dove for a steal and somehow got the ball to Pierce, who drove in for what would turn out to be the winning points, making it 51-50, Atoms.
The Gators began fouling, but Harris proved worthy against the pressure, hitting two sets for free throws in the final eight seconds.
"It was very nerve-wracking, but we do this all of the time in practice," she said. "I have to stay calm."
Allegany-Limestone coach Frank Martin said his team just couldn't quite hold it together in the final minutes against the SAS quickness.
"I'd love to have the last minute and a half back," he said. "We weren't as good as we needed to be to close this game out. We just weren't as good as we needed to be at the end."
The Atoms had a scare in the final seconds when Jackson took a shot to her head when she went down chasing a loose ball and an Allegany-Limestone player fell on top of her. She had to be helped off the court but was up and talking in the aftermath.
Harris said she hoped to go swimming in the hotel pool later in the day, but her coach wasn't hearing it.
No, no. We're not going to do any swimming," he said, laughing. "Too much muscle movement. They got mad at me last night because I took their phones from them. I'm doing that again tonight, too."

Islamabad, June 19, 2015 – The United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) partnered with the International Center for Agricultural Research in the Dry Areas (ICARDA) to create a program to train Pakistani banana farmers in the proper methods to turn crop waste into compost.
“What farmers are burning as waste is actually a valuable resource,” Dr. Shoukat Abro of the Sindh Agricultural Extension Department was quick to point out.
Farmers in Sindh produce 90 percent of Pakistan’s bananas and have traditionally burned the waste produced by the crop. USDA began the three-year Improving Soil Fertility and Soil Health through Agricultural Extension project in an effort to get farmers to use those waste materials to benefit the land and increase crop production. A USDA team visited a banana farm in the Tando Allahyr district of Sindh to observe the program’s progress.
ICARDA is directing ten other Pakistani institutions involved in this project to train farmers to properly turn the leaves and stems left over from banana harvest into compost. The compost can then be used to enrich their soil. There are currently 43 sites throughout Pakistan for farmers to learn about the process of mixing organic matter like the banana harvest waste with manure in order to create compost. The project looks to expand into other crop production areas to identify more organic materials that can be converted into compost.
USDA, through funding provided by the United States Agency for International Development (USAID), has provided technical expertise and guidance to farmers throughout the country. Their focus has been on using the established method of applying compost to nutrient depleted soil to enrich it with organic matter and improve its water holding capacity.
Agriculture is Pakistan’s second largest sector, accounting for over 21 percent of GDP. It remains by far the largest employer, with 46 percent of the labor force working in the sector. For the nearly 62 percent of the Pakistani population in rural areas, agriculture is a vital part of daily life. USDA supports Pakistani scientists and farmers to enhance agricultural productivity in Pakistan, support economic objectives and meet food security needs.

Choptank River Park is seen in Greensboro, Md., on Nov. 6, 2019. Several green infrastructure and wildlife habitat features were created in a project led by partners with the town of Greensboro, Caroline County and Maryland Sea Grant Extension. For example, stormwater once flowed directly into the river from compacted turf and a parking lot area, but now it has a chance to filter through meadow and wetland habitat, which traps and consumes excess nutrients before they pollute the water downstream. Funding for the project came from the Maryland Department of Natural Resources Chesapeake and Atlantic Coastal Bays Trust Fund. (Photo by Will Parson/Chesapeake Bay Program)
