A blue crab lies onboard a deadrise workboat captained by Mark Kitching while crab scraping at dawn around the waters of Smith Island, Md., on Aug. 1, 2020. Kitching relies on years of first-hand observation and local knowledge to weather the unpredictability of good and bad fishing years. “It’s an industry where one year you feel like you are on top of the world and another you could not be.” Kitching said. “Faith has always been something for us to make a living out of, and it hasn’t let us down.” (Photo by Carlin Stiehl/Chesapeake Bay Program)

About two miles of plastic tubing run through the woods at Springboro Tree Farms in Brookston, Indiana as part of the farm’s maple syrup operation. Rich Hines, who owns the farms, has worked with USDA’s Natural Resources Conservation Service to implement conservation practices on his 33 acres of his forestland in Brookston, Indiana. Hines uses the forest for maple syrup production as well as recreation. Hines worked with NRCS through the Environmental Quality Incentives Program to implement brush management, trail improvements and a forest management plan. He also utilized the Conservation Stewardship Program’s forest songbird habitat maintenance, forest stand improvement and tree planting enhancements. (NRCS photo by Brandon O’Connor)

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
@ Annenberg Center Live, Bruce Montgomery Theatre

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."

South Carolina National Guard Soldiers, and fire department/EMS rescuers with the S.C. Helicopter Aquatic Rescue Team (SC-HART) program, S.C. Urban Search and Rescue Task Force 1 (SC-TF1), perform hoist-training operations during the preliminary phases of “Patriot South Exercise 2017” (Patriot South 17), a joint training-exercise focused on natural disaster-response and preparedness, Gulfport and Port Bienville Industrial Complex (PBIC), Mississippi, Jan. 29, 2017. Patriot South 17 is taking place at multiple locations across Mississippi, from January 23 through February 7, 2017, and it offers the National Guard and its local and federal partners a realistic-training opportunity to test response capabilities, procedures, and readiness through a simulated hurricane and Tsunami scenario “hitting the coastal areas of the state.” Specifically, in preparation for future operations, South Carolina’s Headquarters and Headquarters and (-) Company A 2-151st Security and Support Aviation Battalion, 59th Aviation Troop Command, deployed both its current HART-capable platforms, the UH-60L Black Hawk utility helicopter and its LUH-72A Lakota light utility helicopter--the latter being a recent addition to the HART program for South Carolina.

Indiana Department of Correction (IDOC) has contracted with Corizon Health and Indiana Minority Health Coalition (IMHC) to provide the new Parole Re-Entry Liaison Program. The program’s mission is to “empower identified parolees to address and remedy the circumstances that resulted in their incarceration via collaboration and referral with appropriate community resources and support to provide an improved chance of individual success.”
Currently, IDOC has ten parole districts supervising approximately 10,000 adults and juveniles. One Parole Re- Entry Liaison (PRL) is located in each Parole District. These liaisons work with parolees who have been identified with health, mental health, and substance abuse needs. Those in need of services can be referred to PRLs while still incarcerated or at any point while on parole.
Eligible parolees have been identified in facilities by health administrators, psychiatrists, nurses, case managers, and in the community by Parole Agents, other Re-Entry Liaisons and even community providers. Participation in the program is, of course, voluntary.
Upon referral, PRLs make contact with parolees and set up an intake interview. During the interview, parolees and PRLs collaborate to identify the parolee’s goals and needs. Once these are determined, the liaison will work with the parolee to create a plan to meet his/her immediate and long-term needs. Many times, parolees can access services on their own once they are pointed in the right direction. The most common needs are mental health counseling, psychiatric medications, substance abuse treatment, primary care clinics, public transportation, housing, food pantries, state identification/driver’s license, and benefits to pay for treatment services. Liaisons can work with parolees for up to a year and length of engagement depends upon parolee’s needs and desire to work with the PRL. In essence, liaisons serve as case managers, advocates, and cheerleaders for their clients on the clients’ terms.
Liaisons spend time building bridges with community agencies to decrease barriers for parolees. Each community agency has its own intake procedures, policies, and targeted populations. Liaisons become experts on their district’s multitude of community agencies. Additionally, the stigma of incarceration and felony conviction(s) creates major barriers to accessing important services and liaisons become educators to community service providers about the IDOC and offender population.
PRLs are currently working with about 400 parolees statewide. Since October 2014, PRLs have referred 158 parolees for outpatient mental health treatment, 161 for substance abuse treatment, and 60 for medical treatment. PRLs have created community partnerships with 208 community organizations.
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!

From a floe on the Southern Ocean, two seals look up as the U.S. Antarctic Program's research vessel Nathaniel B. Palmer pushes through the ice carrying researchers from Scripps Institution of Oceanography at the University of California San Diego and the University of Washington. Photo by Greta Shum
Part of the Princeton-based Southern Ocean Carbon and Climate Observations and Modeling (SOCCOM) project, the cruise is gathering a variety of data about the region and deploying a dozen biogeochemical profiling floats. In addition to UW’s Steve Riser and recent Scripps graduate Caitlin Whalen, the scientific team includes Scripps’s Lynne Talley, Ellen Briggs, Joseph Gum, Matt Durham, and Susan Becker.
The ship got its first taste of ice-breaking this cruise as it approached the British base Rothera, wrote Greta Shum, who is documenting the trip at soccomatsea.blogspot.com.
"It was thin sheet ice that stood between us and the Brits, the kind that took only a bit of pressure break. A long dark crack shot down the ice in front of us. It widened quickly as we sailed forward," she writes.
"Every few minutes, we'd pass a pair of seals lying on the pancaked ice. They'd awaken from their peaceful nap in the summer sun, look up at us lazily, and gave us a chiding roar."

This year was no different as more than 300 people from across the United States came to learn from the USAMU Service Rifle Team. For some, it was their first experience firing a rifle. For others, it was a chance to fine time some skills. After the classroom portion of the School, the students were able to put their new knowledge to the test on the range. With so many students, the USAMU Soldiers needed some help, and it was a joint effort. Servicemembers from the Navy, Army Reserve, Army National Guard, and Coast Guard teamed up with the USAMU Soldiers and CMP staff to help the SAFS students. This album shows some of the fun and learning from the day. (U.S. Army photos by Michelle Lunato)
Soldiers from the U.S. Army Marksmanship Unit's International Rifle Team competed in the Civilian Marksmanship Program's Smallbore Nationals in Camp Perry, Ohio this past week. The Smallbore Nationals included a series of matches in both three-position rifle and prone rifle. Soldiers from the USAMU competed against Marines and civilian competitors from across the United States for top honors. By the end of the week, the USAMU claimed both the Three-Position Rifle and Prone Team Championships. Individually, the Soldiers showed expertise as well with Sgt. Patrick Sunderman claiming the Gold in the Prone Any Sight Match and the Prone 6400 Aggregate Match. Spc. Jared Desrosiers took the Gold in the Three-Position Any Sight Match and the Three-Position Aggregate Match. And in the Three-Position Finals, the USAMU swept the podium with Spc. Brandon Muske taking the Gold and Sunderman and Desrosiers placing right behind. Check out all the scores at www.thecmp.org/smallboreresults/
