Genetic alteration predicts pain recovery after sexual assault

Apr. 10, 2013 ? One in five U.S. women are sexually assaulted in their lifetimes and more than half experience severe pain during the week following an attack. A study published in The Journal of Pain showed that presence of a genetic variant could significantly reduce pain severity associated with assault.

Previous studies have reported that sexual assault victims who report having severe pain across multiple body regions are experiencing stress-induced hyperalgesia, resulting from release of endogenous opioids. An initial period of analgesia is followed by delayed onset of persistent and widespread hyperalgesia. Gene variants have been associated with the u-opioid receptor and the most common variant is the single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) A118G. Individuals with one or more copies of variant gene (allele) at the A118G have shown poor analgesic response to opioids.

A research team at the University of North Carolina hypothesized that activation of u-opioid receptors causes stress-induced hyperalgesia after a sexual assault and survivors with one or more copies of the variant gene at the A118G receptor would experience less receptor-mediated hyperalgesia and less pain in the initial weeks following the assault.

Women 18 years and older presenting for treatment by sexual assault nurse examiners working in ten different health systems were recruited for the study. The women were interviewed after one week and six weeks for evaluation of their pain symptoms. Genotyping was performed on all 52 study participants. The gene variant was found in 12 women (23%) and all were Caucasian.

The study results showed that the women with the gene variant resulting in reduced response to u-opioid receptor binding had clinically relevant reductions in pain severity. The findings suggest that women with one of more alleles at A118G may experience both a reduced analgesic response to endogenous opioids and a reduction in delayed-onset, more long-lasting opioid mediated hyperalgesia. The finding suggests that endogenous opioid-mediated hyperalgesia may contribute to pain symptoms after sexual assault.

Hooters sued by former waitress in war over wig

Following brain surgery, your main worry should not be whether you?ll get fired at work for refusing to wear a wig that scrapes your scar. But former Hooters waitress Sandra Lupo contends in a lawsuit that?s what happened when she declined to don a wig and her hours were reduced so much, she was forced to quit.

She filed a disability discrimination lawsuit in Missouri against Hooters of St. Peters, LLC and Hooters of America LLC and is seeking $25,000 for mental and emotional distress, plus punitive damages, attorney fees and other relief.

"Hooters of America believes the lawsuit is without foundation, denies the accusations and has filed a motion that the lawsuit be dismissed," the company said in a statement to NBC News. Hooters, in an April 5 response to the court, denies most of her statements and says ?its actions were taken for legitimate, nondiscriminatory business reasons.?

Hooters is a privately held chain of restaurants that bank on attractive waitresses wearing short shorts and cleavage-hugging shirts.

Lupo, who had been working at the Hooters of St. Peters, Mo., since 2005, was in her last six weeks of nursing school and was at her computer in June 2012 when she felt tingling and numbness on her left side. ?I was bleeding out in my brain,? she told NBCNews.com.

She spent a week in the hospital following her July 2 surgery and was visited by her Hooters manager, according to her suit filed on the Circuit Court of St. Charles County.

The lawsuit claims that her store manager told her ?she could return to work as soon as she was capable, and that, she could wear a ?chemo cap? or any other items of jewelry to distract from her lack of hair and the visibility of her cranial scar.?

Her hair had been cut to ?-inch for the surgery.

On July 16, Lupo?s doctors gave her the all-clear to return to work. Soon after, she met with her manager and the Hooters' regional manager, who said she would be required to wear a wig at work, according to Lupo?s lawsuit.

Hooters? April 5 filing does not address whether any of its employees told Lupo to wear a wig. It says that her manager ?informed her she would need a head covering.?

At the time of the meeting, Lupo protested that she was unable to afford a wig, which can cost from several hundred to several thousands of dollars, according to her claim.

When she did return to work July 21, wigless, she was told a wig was required. She then borrowed a wig but it ?caused extreme stress to her body because of the surgery and the healing wound,? according to the suit.

Hooters then reduced her hours ?to the point that Plaintiff could not earn an income, thereby forcing Plaintiff to quit,? according to the suit. ?It is and has been the routine custom, policy and practice of Defendants to reduce their employees? hours which forces them to voluntarily resign thereby making them ineligible for unemployment compensation.?

The Hooters filing specifically denies that allegation.

After Lupo said she could not wear the wig, Hooters stopped scheduling her for as many hours, she said.

?I actually had to beg for one shift a week,? Lupo said. Pre-surgery, she was working several days a week while finishing nursing school. She had also trained staff and worked promotions for the restaurant, but no alternate duties were offered to her.

?They refused to accommodate it,? she said.

Today she is recovered, graduated and working as a registered nurse.

?Justice,? she said, is the main goal of the lawsuit.

Immigration Talk with a Mexican American: Due to Sequestration, ICE Frees Hundreds of Non-Felonious Detainees in a Budget-Saving Move! skip to main | skip to sidebar

Due to Sequestration, ICE Frees Hundreds of Non-Felonious Detainees in a Budget-Saving Move!

We can thank Republicans for the Sequester on Friday. This started in 2011 when they refused to raise the debt ceiling. Even though raising the debt ceiling "for funds we already spent" was never held hostage before, Republicans insisted on a guarantee of payment ? this resulted in the Sequester recommendation. Now that the Sequester is here, some Republicans are attempting to blame the President for this recommendation. They must think that WE THE PEOPLE have short memories. ?The President and Senate Democrats have proposed a balanced approach to resolving this crisis, but once again, Republicans REFUSE to even consider it.
The debt ceiling arguments in mid-2011 caused a HUGE DROP in the stock market. We can expect the same with Sequestration on Friday.While some Republicans bellyache about cuts to the over-bloated Military Budget, Sequestration will have a?particularly harmful effect on Minorities, the Elderly, Children and the Middle to Lower Income Americans. The first to be impacted will be:1.?????? The Unemployed: Those who have been on unemployment benefits for over six months may lose some or all of their continuing benefits. Additionally, Workforce Development programs will be reduced or cut.? Jobs Creation and Infrastructure Rebuilding Programs: Funds may be cut. Programs stopped.
2.?????? The Poor: Housing Programs: Section 8 programs cut. Home Energy Assistance, including winter heat bills programs cut. Cuts to WIC, Food Stamps, Nutrition Programs for Children Cut.
3.??????Middle to Lower Income Employees: Federal, State, City Jobs -- Expect Teachers, Firefighters, Policemen and Border Security layoffs.
4.?????? Education: Student Loans programs cut. Financial Aid programs cut. School Programs from Head Start to College Mentoring programs cut.
In addition to these cuts, in preparation of the impending Sequestration, starting last Thursday, Federal Immigration officials have released hundreds of non-felonious criminal detainees from immigration detention centers around the country. The move has been put in place to save money as automatic budget cuts loom in Washington. (One positive? aspect to the Sequestration that Republicans will surely hate!)

Forecast is for more snow in polar regions, less for the rest of us

Monday, February 25, 2013

A new climate model predicts an increase in snowfall for the Earth's polar regions and highest altitudes, but an overall drop in snowfall for the globe, as carbon dioxide levels rise over the next century.

The decline in snowfall could spell trouble for regions such as the western United States that rely on snowmelt as a source of fresh water.

The projections are the result of a new climate model developed at the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) Geophysical Fluid Dynamics Laboratory (GFDL) and analyzed by scientists at GFDL and Princeton University. The study was published in the Journal of Climate.

The model indicates that the majority of the planet would experience less snowfall as a result of warming due to a doubling of atmospheric carbon dioxide. Observations show that atmospheric carbon dioxide has already increased by 40 percent from values in the mid-19th century, and, given projected trends, could exceed twice those values later this century. In North America, the greatest reductions in snowfall will occur along the northeast coast, in the mountainous west, and in the Pacific Northwest. Coastal regions from Virginia to Maine, as well as coastal Oregon and Washington, will get less than half the amount of snow currently received.

In very cold regions of the globe, however, snowfall will rise because as air warms it can hold more moisture, leading to increased precipitation in the form of snow. The researchers found that regions in and around the Arctic and Antarctica will get more snow than they now receive.

The highest mountain peaks in the northwestern Himalayas, the Andes and the Yukon region will also receive greater amounts of snowfall after carbon dioxide doubles. This finding clashes with other models which predicted declines in snowfall for these high-altitude regions. However, the new model's prediction is consistent with current snowfall observations in these regions.

The model is an improvement over previous models in that it utilizes greater detail about the world's topography ? the mountains, valleys and other features. This new "high-resolution" model is analogous to having a high-definition model of the planet's climate instead of a blurred picture.

President's personal life hits French stage

PARIS (AP) ? A vow to keep his private life out of the public eye helped sweep Francois Hollande to power last year as France's president, attracting voters tired of his flashy predecessor's amorous exploits. Now, the words of the one-time dull Socialist are back to bite him in a new play.

"Mr. Normal, His Women and Me," a comedy of errors set in the presidential Elysee Palace, is inspired by a real-life Twitter scandal involving his glamorous live-in girlfriend, journalist Valerie Trierweiler, and the elegant and influential mother of Hollande's four children, politician Segolene Royal.

The affair last year shook up Hollande's carefully cultivated dull image and hurt his popularity. And it immediately caught the attention of director and writer Bernard Uzan.

"When I first saw the tweet... it was a vaudeville before my eyes," said Uzan, referring to a message sent by Trierweiler during last June's legislative elections expressing support for Royal's political opponent.

Days later, Royal lost her bid for a parliamentary seat. Widely criticized as a vindictive move, the tweet went viral and dominated French media for days.

When writing the play, Uzan says he interviewed real politicians and used genuine quotes and anecdotes.

Indeed, the characters are very thinly disguised. The play features a portly, bespectacled protagonist called Francois Gouda ? named after a Dutch cheese ? who's chased around the Elysee by an obsessive ex-partner, Marjolaine Loyal, and bossy First Lady Nathalie Valtriere, who likes designer dresses.

Though it is fictional, the play ? which opened on Jan. 24 ? points out some uncomfortable truths about the last nine months, which have seen Hollande's popularity plunge at the same speed as the country's economic fortunes.

"I, as president, won't expose my private life to the eyes of the French," says Gouda, evoking Hollande's pledge a month before his election victory in May to not mix up his public and private lives.

Hollande's words were calculated to distance himself from his conservative predecessor Nicolas Sarkozy. He was criticized for letting his private life get too public during his presidency, divorcing his second wife Cecilia and marrying his third, former supermodel and singer Carla Bruni-Sarkozy while in office.

Two months after winning the election, it was Hollande in the hot seat, answering an uncomfortable question on Bastille Day about his own love triangle. His 27-year-old son, Thomas, was dragged into to the affair, dubbed "tweetgate," to defend his mother, Royal.

Mirroring the image political satirists paint of Hollande, the play shows the presidential character as incapable of controlling the two warring women who throw insults at each other.

To chuckles, an exasperated Gouda says, "I never asked to be here ... Why can't I just resign, like the pope?"

Actor Daniel Jean Colloredo plays the president as a weak, ridiculous leader ? steered by the characters around him, including his aide who tries to teach him the confidence to say "I am a winner" to a mirror. He eventually manages with a weak "we-we-winner."

"He really doesn't have the strength of character to choose either woman," said Colleredo.

Hollande's ex-partner Royal was back in the news this week causing controversy, with an announcement of her appointment as vice president of the new government-funded Public Investment Bank.

Top business leader Laurence Parisot questioned Royal's experience for the job, while journalists have called it a political appointment from the Elysee to keep Royal happy ? a charge she vehemently denies.

The play also tries to address the key question on everyone's lips: What is the irresistible appeal of Hollande, who has been nicknamed "flanby" after a bland custard dessert?

"We asked ourselves this, too. How can this (love triangle) have come about?" says Dominique Merot, the actress who plays Loyal. "He must have a lot of charm behind closed doors."

iPad weather app at a glance

iPad weather app at a glance

Comparing 18 iPad weather app current weather screens

Earlier in the week I compared the current weather screens of 27 popular iPhone weather apps, and in the spirit of equal time for expansive interfaces, here's the same thing for 18 popular iPad weather apps. The reason for the lower number is that not all of the iPhone apps had iPad versions, or build in iPad interfaces -- Apple's own iOS weather app included! While some of the iPad versions are just bigger, others take advantage of the larger screen and broader aspect ratio to show not just bigger but more.

Like before, I used the exact same location and page, whenever possible, for each app. I paid for full versions of in-app purchases to disable ads when I could, and when it worked. If extended forecasts could be brought up on the same screen, I brought them up. I made them as comparable as possible.

Here they are, in order, from top left to bottom right, are:

The current weather screen isonly one aspect of a weather app, and doesn't cover features like radar, videos, etc. so as the title says, consider this only a glance at different design approaches. For more on the individual apps, check out our weather app review series.

That being said, which weather apps do you use, and are they the same ones that appeal to you most in the comparison above? Any of the weather screens attractive enough they encourage you check out an alternative app?

NBA scores: Hawks climb past Bucks, Wizards continue rampage

In Saturday's NBA action, the Wizards continued their hot play with a victory over the Rockets and the Hawks edged the rival Bucks in J.J. Redick's Milwaukee debut. Plus, Danny Granger returned to action.

Saturday featured seven NBA games, many of them close. Let's dig in.

Hawks 103, Bucks 102
As long as Josh Smith is going to stick around, the Hawks might as well win, right? Atlanta is 2-0 since the deadline, notching a one-point win over the Bucks on Saturday. Al Horford picked up the game-winner -- a half-hook bank shot, of course -- to cap a 23-point, 11-rebound night. The Jeff Teague-Devin Harris backcourt outplayed Milwaukee's Brandon Jennings-Monta Ellis pairing, too. The Hawks duo scored 44 on a .692 eFG with 13 assists and three turnovers; the Bucks tandem had 25 points on .442 eFG with 15 assists and six turnovers.

In his Milwaukee debut, J.J. Redick was strong. He had 16 points on 4-9 shooting and seven assists against two turnovers. And yes, Jim Boylan did give us the three-guard lineup we've been dying to see since Thursday: the Bucks' lineup for the final four minutes featured Jennings, Ellis, Redick, Ersan Ilyasova and Larry Sanders. The Bucks led by five when Boylan put in Jennings for Mike Dunleavy. Four minutes later, Milwaukee had a one-point loss. This is going to be awesome.

Wizards 105, Rockets 103
Be wary, opponents: Washington is now 11-4 against teams with winning records since January 7. It's a completely different team over the past month, as Saturday's gutty two-point win shows. The Wizards' defense and offense both had slow starts, and Houston led by 11 at the half. But the Wizards plugged away to make it a game, and dominated defensively in the fourth. The Rockets shot 13-28 (.464) on threes in the first half and 6-18 (.333) in the second. The Wizards did most of their damage in the paint, but Bradley Beal was the top scorer with 21. James Harden racked up 27.

Pacers 90, Pistons 72
Danny Granger's back! That is not, however, the reason the Pacers blew out the Pistons, though. In 18 minutes off of the bench, Granger was 1-10 from the floor. Luckily for Indiana, Detroit was basically that bad top to bottom, shooting 33 percent for the game and racking up an offensive efficiency of roughly 78. George Hill led Indy with 17 on 7-10 shooting.

Clippers 107, Jazz 94
On a team with Chris Paul and Blake Griffin, it's Caron Butler and Lamar Odom getting the job done. What a world. Butler had 21 on 7-13 shooting and Odom added 18 off of the bench. The Jazz missed an opportunity to extend their standings lead over the Rockets.

Heat 114, Sixers 90
Thirty-three points on 14-18 shooting from Dwyane Wade, no big deal.

Nuggets 113, Bobcats 99
Denver's big men got the job done efficiently: Kenneth Faried scored 15 on nine shots and JaVale McGee scored 17 on 10. Byron Mullens and Bismack Biyombo, meanwhile, shot 4-17.

Cavaliers 118, Magic 94
How bad was this game for Orlando? Kyrie Irving and Alonzo Gee did this in the first quarter:

Use a Nut and Bolt Drawer to Store Loose Board Game Pieces

Use a Nut and Bolt Drawer to Store Loose Board Game Pieces

Board game pieces, especially from complicated role-playing games, can be tough to keep track of. A nut and bolt drawer is a great tool to keep everything in one place.

David Caolo at Unclutterer suggests keeping the drawer wherever you store your board games. The see-through bins are ideal for segmenting and identifying small pieces, and you won't risk different pieces from the same game getting mixed up like they might in the original box. You can even pull individual trays out to use as token holders while you play.

With this system in place, you could get rid of your game boxes entirely, and even use the boards as pieces of functional art. Hit up the source link below for more great board game storage ideas.

Pope's resignation changes Catholic Church forever

The unexpected resignation of Pope Benedict XVI still resonates deeply even after two or three days of trying to take it in.

There have been many historic events in my lifetime, including a man on the moon and the collapse of the Berlin Wall, but I never dreamt that I would live to see a Pope resigning.

It has shocked Irish Roman Catholics just as much as their co-religionists elsewhere and people of Protestant denominations and of other faiths, as well.

This sense of shock is similar to that which everyone would feel if the Queen Elizabeth suddenly said "I'm off. I've had enough." The abdication of her uncle, Edward VIII, traumatised Britain in 1936 and it is still embedded in the national psyche.

This Pope's resignation is another massive historical event. Traditionally, Popes do not 'do' resignations, apart from Gregory XII, who was forcibly 'resigned' by his enemies 598 years ago in 1415, due to a schism in the Church.

No schism was apparent this time and, if there was, the Pope and his colleagues kept it quiet. The reaction in Rome was "incredulous", according to the Vatican spokesman, Fr Federico Lombardi. There is inevitable speculation about the 'hidden' reasons for the Pope's resignation and many believe that the inside story has yet to be told. The real reason may be that he is simply an elderly man who does not have the strength to continue in this taxing post.

As the Church of Ireland Primate, Archbishop Richard Clarke, pointed out, the Pope recently told residents in an old people's home, "I am here not only as your Bishop, but as an old man in the company of other old people."

Significantly, the Pope ? like the former Anglican Primate, Dr Rowan Williams, who also stepped down recently ? has sent out a strong message that leadership of a world church is an impossible task for any individual and that it can no longer be regarded as a lifetime role.

This may open up other spheres of leadership, perhaps even within British royalty itself. Until Monday, no one thought that a Pope would resign ? especially after the long illness of John Paul II, who carried on when he was no longer capable of doing the job. Now anything is possible.

Pope Benedict's resignation is also a story of unfinished business in the pontificate of this charming, yet conservative, leader, who leaves much baggage ? including clerical child sex-abuse ? to burden his successor.

His departure has shocked the Church, but not floored it, because the powerful Vatican civil service knows how to hold on to power and will grimly do so again.

Now the attention will turn to a successor. Will there be a Latin-American, Asian, or African Pope? No one knows ? in spite of the endless commentators who fill air time with speculation. Usually those who are 'favourites' for the Papacy are passed over, anyway.

We are all moving into uncharted territory, but the Catholic Church will still carry on doggedly, come what may, in its self-appointed role as the supreme guardian of the Christian faith. Even so, it faces a big challenge in filling an unexpected vacancy so quickly.

However, there is one element to Pope Benedict's resignation that changes things forever. Cardinal Brady and other senior clerics have spoken kindly of his humility and courage in resigning. This is true.

But Benedict has unexpectedly dismissed the centuries-long assumption that a Pope chosen by God dies in office, whatever his health. He has changed all that and nothing in the Catholic Church, or world religion, will ever be the same again.

This most conservative of Popes has amazed, surprised and totally thrown all of us.

Latest New York sports

BKN-RAPTORS-KNICKS

Raptors beat Knicks 92-88 for 4th straight win

NEW YORK (AP) -- Reserve Alan Anderson scored 26 points in one of the few good offensive performances for either team, and the Toronto Raptors beat the New York Knicks 92-88 on Wednesday night for their fourth straight victory.

DeMar DeRozan added 20 points for the Raptors, who overcame a 4-for-21 performance from Rudy Gay because Knicks star Carmelo Anthony was just as bad.

Anthony finished with 12 points and 12 rebounds but shot 5 of 24 for the Knicks, who dropped their final two games leading into the All-Star break.

KNICKS-ANTHONY INJURED

Anthony unsure about All-Star game with arm injury

NEW YORK (AP) -- Carmelo Anthony's All-Star game start could be in jeopardy after he received a deep bruise in his right arm that caused numbness.

Anthony says he wants to play Sunday in Houston but is "not going to force it."

The New York Knicks forward says, "As bad as I would want to play in the All-Star game, participate, if I can't go, I can't go. Nothing I can do about that."

Anthony was hurt early in the Knicks' 92-88 loss to Toronto on Wednesday when he tried to step in front of a driving DeMar DeRozan and took an elbow to his biceps. Anthony says it created a contusion and left him battling a "dead arm" throughout the game.

Anthony finished with 12 points on 5-of-24 shooting.

BKN-NUGGETS-NETS

Johnson and Nets beat Nuggets 119-108

NEW YORK (AP) -- Joe Johnson scored 26 points, including five 3-pointers, C.J Watson added 25 points and five 3s, and the Brooklyn Nets avoided another second-half meltdown with a 119-108 victory over the Denver Nuggets on Wednesday night.

All-Star center Brook Lopez had 23 points and eight rebounds and Kris Humphries chipped in 14 points for Brooklyn.

The 119 points were a season high for the Nets. They also tied a season-high with 16 3-pointers.

Brooklyn is now 2-1 in games played without star point guard Deron Williams, who has sat out the last two games due to sore ankles.

Ty Lawson led the Nuggets with 26 points and hit all of his five 3-point attempts. Denver has lost three in a row after winning a season-high seven straight games.

DEVILS-JETS TRADE

Devils get Ponikarovsky in deal with Jets

NEWARK, N.J. (AP) -- The New Jersey Devils reacquired forward Alexei Ponikarovsky from the Winnipeg Jets on Wednesday for a seventh-round draft pick this year and a fourth-round pick in 2014.

The 32-year-old Ponikarovsky, from the Ukraine, completed last season with New Jersey, finishing with seven goals and 11 assists in 33 games following a trade with Carolina. He signed with Winnipeg as an unrestricted free agent and had two goals in 12 games for the Jets this season.

In 12 NHL seasons with Toronto, Pittsburgh, Los Angeles, Carolina, New Jersey and Winnipeg, he has 137 goals and 179 assists in 648 regular-season games.

YANKEES-MARINERS TRADE

Yankees acquire RHP Shawn Kelley from Mariners

NEW YORK (AP) -- The New York Yankees have added depth to their bullpen, acquiring right-hander Shawn Kelley from the Seattle Mariners for minor league outfielder Abraham Almonte.

The teams announced the trade Wednesday night.

The 28-year-old Kelley went 2-4 with a 3.25 ERA in 47 appearances for Seattle last season and figures to fill a middle-relief role with the Yankees. He was designated for assignment by the Mariners on Feb. 7 when the club signed catcher Kelly Shoppach.

About a week earlier, Kelley and the Mariners agreed to a $935,000, one-year contract that avoided salary arbitration. Kelley is 10-9 with a 3.52 ERA in four big league seasons, all with Seattle.

Almonte, 23, batted .276 with four homers, 25 RBIs and 30 steals in 78 games for Double-A Trenton last season.

BBA-YANKEES-RIVERA

Rivera plans to announce if this is final season

TAMPA, Fla. (AP) -- New York Yankees closer Mariano Rivera says he's reached a decision on whether this will be his final season and plans to announce it before opening day.

"Yes, I have," Rivera said Wednesday after the Yankees' first spring training workout for pitchers and catchers. "But again, I will tell you guys when I think it's the right moment."

The 43-year-old reliever had surgery June 12 to repair a torn anterior cruciate ligament in his right knee, an injury that occurred while he was shagging fly balls during batting practice in Kansas City on May 3.

The right-hander expects to be ready for the regular season. He threw 25 pitches off a bullpen mound and said it felt good.

"It was wonderful to be out there again," Rivera said.

METS-PARNELL

Parnell will close for Mets if Francisco ailing

PORT ST. LUCIE, Fla. (AP) -- New York Mets manager Terry Collins plans to use Bobby Parnell as the team's closer if Frank Francisco is not ready to pitch on opening day.

Francisco has been shut down with the same right elbow inflammation that ended his season last September and ultimately led to December surgery to remove bone spurs.

Collins told Parnell on Tuesday night that he would be the first reliever in line if Francisco isn't able to start the season with the team.

Collins said Wednesday that newcomer Brandon Lyon would likely would move into the eighth-inning spot in that scenario.

GIANTS-BUEHLER

Giants add to roster, sign kicker Buehler

EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J. (AP) -- Former Dallas Cowboys placekicker David Buehler has signed with the New York Giants. The team announced the move Wednesday.

Lawrence Tynes is entering the final year of his contract with New York, and Buehler will provide some competition in training camp. Buehler played for the Cowboys from 2009-11, handling kickoff duties most of the time. He led the NFL in 2009 with 29 touchbacks.

Buehler made 24 of 32 field-goal attempts and 42 extra points in 2010. He played in four games in 2011 and was placed on injured reserve Nov. 10 with a torn adductor muscle. He underwent surgery to repair a torn labrum on Dec. 11. He did not play last year, after failing a physical.

The Giants went 9-7 last season and missed the playoffs.

BKC-T25-SYRACUSE-CONNECTICUT

Connecticut beats No. 6 Syracuse 66-58

HARTFORD, Conn. (AP) -- Freshman Omar Calhoun scored 15 points, including three 3-pointers in the deciding second-half run, and Connecticut beat No. 6 Syracuse 66-58 on Wednesday night in the last scheduled game between the national powers.

Syracuse will play next season in the Atlantic Coast Conference while Connecticut will stay in the realigned Big East although the Huskies could be enticed to head to another conference if asked.

There is no chance they would meet again this postseason as Connecticut has been banned from the Big East and NCAA tournaments as part of a punishment for failing to post a passable APR score.

Their last game was a close one until Calhoun started hitting from beyond the 3-point line.

He started the run with a 3 that gave the Huskies (17-6, 7-4 Big East) the lead for good at 45-42 with 9:49 to play.

FORDHAM-XAVIER

Xavier gets 11th straight win over Fordham 79-66

CINCINNATI (AP) -- Justin Martin scored 16 points and set the tone with several gritty plays on Wednesday night, sparking Xavier to a 79-66 victory over Fordham and keeping the Musketeers unbeaten at home in Atlantic 10 play.

Semaj Christon scored 19 points, and Xavier (14-9, 7-3) had five players in double figures while remaining perfect at home in A-10 games. Xavier is 52-1 in A-10 games at the Cintas Center since the 2007-08 season.

The Musketeers have won their last 11 games against the Rams (6-19, 2-8), and lead the series 23-3.

Mandell Thomas scored 23 points for Fordham, which has lost five in a row and eight of its last nine games while missing one of its top players.

The Rams played their seventh straight game without senior forward Chris Gaston, an A-10 preseason first-team choice. He's been bothered by an injured knee.

TOLEDO-BUFFALO

Watson, McCrea lead Buffalo over Toledo 75-60

BUFFALO, N.Y. (AP) -- Tony Watson scored 24 points and Javon McCrea had a double-double as Buffalo ended Toledo's five-game winning streak with a 75-60 victory Wednesday night.

McCrea had 14 points, 16 rebounds and four blocked shots for the Bulls (10-15, 5-6 Mid-American Conference), who have won their last six games against the Rockets (11-11, 7-4).

Jarryn Skeete added 17 points for Buffalo, which outshot Toledo 51.9 percent (27 of 52) to 32.4 percent (22 of 68).

Trailing 22-21, Buffalo outscored Toledo 14-3 over the final 6:32 of the first half to take a 35-25 lead. McCrea had three layups during the run.

The Bulls' lead never dipped below double figures in the second half.

Rian Pearson, Matt Smith and Julius Brown scored 10 points each for Toledo, which held on to a share of the MAC West Division lead because Western Michigan lost to Bowling Green.

ARMY-LAFAYETTE

Wilson scores 24, leads Army past Lafayette 85-68

EASTON, Pa. (AP) -- Kyle Wilson scored 24 points and Ella Ellis added 20 as Army trounced Lafayette 85-68 Wednesday night to snap a two-game skid and sweep the season series for the first time in four years.

The Black Knights (11-13, 4-5 Patriot League), who also defeated Lafayette 77-54 on Jan. 16, never trailed and led by 31 with 6:36 remaining.

Wilson had 13 points in the first half as Army took a 38-19 lead into the break.

The Black Knights outshot the Leopards 55.6 percent (30 of 54) to 39.1 percent (25 of 64). Lafayette made only 1 of 12 3-point attempts in the first half, improving to 8 of 16 in the second.

Kyle Toth added 14 points and Kevin Ferguson had 10 rebounds as Army dominated the glass 43-25.

Tony Johnson's 18 points led the Leopards (12-14, 5-4), who came in as winners of four of their previous five games.

COLGATE-BUCKNELL

Muscala leads Bucknell to 69-61 win over Colgate

LEWISBURG, Pa. (AP) -- Mike Muscala scored 27 points and grabbed 12 rebounds and Bucknell led wire-to-wire in a 69-61 win over Colgate on Wednesday night, sweeping the season series.

The double-double was the 18th of the season for Muscala, who has scored in double digits in 29 straight games for the Bison (21-4, 8-1 Patriot League).

Tied with Lehigh atop the league standings, Bucknell has won five straight games and eight of its past nine, including 73-59 over Colgate on Jan. 16. The Bison posted the second-best 25-game start in program history after the 1983-84 team that began its season 22-3.

Bucknell led 34-23 at halftime, but the Raiders (9-17, 3-6) closed to 49-47 with 7:49 left. Muscala's back-to-back layups ended the threat and Colgate could get no closer than four points from there.

Cameron Ayers added 13 points and Bryson Johnson 12 for the Bison.

Murphy Burnatowski's 23 points led the Raiders.

HOFSTRA-GEORGIA ST

Georgia State shuts down Hofstra 61-43 in CAA play

ATLANTA (AP) -- Manny Atkins scored 13 points and Georgia State allowed a season-low in points in a 61-43 victory over Hofstra Wednesday night in Colonial Athletic Association.

The Panthers (13-14, 8-6), trailing 10-4, scored 16 consecutive points to lead 28-19 at halftime. They extended their lead to 43-25 midway through the second half and coasted home against Hofstra (6-19, 3-9).

Georgia State, which also got 11 points apiece from Devonta White and center James Vincent (5 for 5 from the floor), forced 22 Hofstra turnovers -- 14 on steals -- and turned those turnovers into 31 points. The Panthers also hounded Hofstra into 29-percent shooting from the field (12 of 41).

Stevie Mejia was the only player in double figures for the Pride. He posted his first career double-double with 18 points and 10 rebounds. No one else scored more than six.

Atkins just missed a double-double with nine rebounds.

ROCHESTER, N.Y. (AP) -- Ramon Galloway scored 23 points to go with six boards and five assists and La Salle won its third straight game, beating St. Bonaventure 69-66 in overtime Wednesday.

Tyrone Garland scored 13 of his 16 points in the first half and Steve Zach grabbed 10 boards.

La Salle (17-6, 7-3 Atlantic 10 Conference) led 16-14 before reeling off 10 straight points and taking a 38-27 advantage into intermission. St. Bonaventure, which trailed by as many as 16 in the first half, outscored the Explorers 34-23 in the second half to force overtime.

Charlon Kloof tied the game at 65 with 1:33 left in overtime but the Bonnies (11-12, 4-6) were outscored 4-1 the rest of the way. Eric Mosley was fouled on a 3-point attempt with two seconds remaining, trailing 68-65, but missed two of three free throws.

HOCKEY FAN KILLED

Fan leaving hockey game struck, killed by car

NEWARK, N.J. (AP) -- Newark police say an 18-year-old New York man was struck and killed by a car as he left a New Jersey Devils hockey game.

Thomas Argenti of Pearl River was struck around 10:30 p.m. Tuesday in the area of the Prudential Center, the arena in downtown Newark where the Devils play their home games. He was pronounced dead a short time later.

No charges have been filed against the 28-year-old who was driving the vehicle that struck Argenti. Police say the driver stopped and remained at the scene.

SUPER BOWL-NFL PLANS

NFL ready to get Super Bowl played at Met Life

NEW YORK (AP) -- The NFL says it's ready to get the 2014 Super Bowl played at Met Life Stadium in New Jersey no matter what the weather conditions are early next February.

The NFL has contingency plans for all games, but with a winter storm hitting the Northeast just after this year's Super Bowl in New Orleans, there are concerns about the championship game being played for the first time outdoors at a cold-weather site.

Several reports indicate the NFL has discussed changing the day of game set for Feb. 2 if weather complications arise. NFL spokesman Brian McCarthy would not offer specifics of the contingency plans, but says Wednesday "we will be prepared if we have to make adjustments."

The date of the Super Bowl has never been changed for any reason.

However, dates, times and even sites of several regular-season games have been moved because of weather-related issues.

RUTGERS-WILSON

Rutgers names Darrell Wilson secondary coach

PISCATAWAY, N.J. (AP) -- Darrell Wilson, who spent the last 11 seasons as an assistant at Iowa, has been named the defensive secondary coach at Rutgers. Coach Kyle Flood announced the hiring Wednesday.

Wilson, who previously served as the running backs coach for the Scarlet Knights in 1999, coached the secondary for the Hawkeyes in 2012, while assisting with special teams.

A former defensive back at UConn, Wilson has also coached at Rhode Island and Wisconsin. He played one season in the NFL with New England and five with Toronto of the CFL, winning the Grey Cup in 1983.

Rutgers went 9-4 last season in Flood's first year as coach.

ATH-US-ROAD-RACE

USA Track & Field to hold new national road race

NEW YORK (AP) -- USA Track & Field will hold a new national road race in the fall, open to both amateur and elite runners.

The governing body said Wednesday that the 7?-mile event will have a combined $100,000 prize purse for men and women. It's part of a three-year deal between USATF and Neustar, an information services company.

The competition will be called the .US National Road Racing Championships in reference to Neustar's. US domain name.

The date, location and course will be announced in the next few weeks. This will be USATF's first fully owned-and-operated road race.

USATF says the deal is its biggest single-event sponsorship in more than a decade.
