Saldutti, a first baseman, was named to the all-Hoosier Crossroads Conference baseball team last season. He was honorable mention on The Stars All-North team. Saldutti hit .264 with seven doubles, two triples, one homer and 23 runs batted in.
COLUMBIA, S.C. — A black college student who drew complaints for displaying a Confederate flag in his dorm room window said he sees the banner as a symbol of Southern pride and not racism.
The 19-year-old student at the University of South Carolina Beaufort took the flag down at the university’s request, but he said he’s considering putting it back up after the officials relented. Byron Thomas has drawn nearly 70,000 views since he posted a video online in which he acknowledges: “I know it’s kind of weird because I’m black.”
In a telephone interview Thursday, Thomas said a class research project made him come to the belief that the flag’s real meaning has been hijacked.

ESCANABA — School may be out for the holiday, but Escanaba High School was still a busy place Thursday afternoon.
Nearly 700 Thanksgiving meals were served out of the building for the Annual Community Thanksgiving dinner.
A number of volunteers help out at the event.
Organizers say this year the Escanaba Eskymo’s Hockey Team was a big part of making it all possible.
They woke up early Thursday morning to start work at 8:30 to put together food bags and carry them out to cars to be transported to homes.
“Its not always just about the game of hockey, it’s about the game of life and these kids are helping people that need it. It’s big for them to do that,” said Team Coach, Tim McCarthy.
The team has also helped out various other local community agencies.
They start their official hockey season Tuesday.
An online global management MBA degree program is a degree designed to provide MBA graduates with the skills and knowledge that are needed to interact and conduct business with offices, clients, and customers in countries around the globe.
The creation of the European Union (E.U.) and the growing role of India and China in the international business landscape have added a new dimension to international business. An MBA in global management deals with topics that revolve around managing global markets, and allocating resources across different countries. These include human resources, technology resources, financial resources, etc. MBA graduates with a global management concentration are important to companies that are expanding into international markets. While many managers and executives may have traditional business skills, they may lack training in how to manage global business, thus the demand for managers with an international business specialization or experience.
An array of leading-edge technology that will enable Rush clinicians to respond more quickly to patient needs, communicate more effectively with each other about patient care, and have more timely access to patient medical information will be deployed in Rush University Medical Center’s new hospital building, opening January 2012.
An advanced patient monitoring device, a new system for patients to call staff, and an advanced audiovisual communications system are among the new features designed to further improve patient care at Rush.
Rush’s new hospital building will be the first hospital in the United States to fully incorporate an advanced new patient monitoring system that permits continuous monitoring some of a patient’s key vital signs and heart rhythms no matter the location of the patient.

First post of the season, lets get controversial. The Associated Press All-American team was announced Monday. The first team was Jared Sullinger of Ohio State, Harrison Barnes of North Carolina, Terrence Jones of Kentucky, Jeremy Lamb of UConn, and Jordan Taylor of Wisconsin.
When we get to March, I think Sullinger and Jones will still be first-team players but Sullinger is the only lock. Jones is going to have to share the spotlight with a lot of other players on the Calipari Barnstorming SuperStars and may not end up with the individual stats needed. Barnes was first-team preseason last season and we saw how that turned out. Lamb is a tremendous guard but hed have to become more of an all-around force. Taylor is a really good guard but I dont see him as one of the five best players in the country. Not sure how that happened.
Plus you know some players will emerge and become great.
