CORPUS CHRISTI, Texas â A former Texas A&M-Corpus Christi professor s pre-teaching career had him at the center of one of the Cold War s most tense moments.
Paul Cameron spent most of his military career on the front lines of war with no real battles. His mission would have started World War III. He s glad he s still here to tell his story, and the world is able to hear it.
âThank God I never had to fly it,â Cameron said with a chuckle.
NATCHITOCHES â As the busiest Southland Conference baseball season in Northwestern State history winds down, Demon skipper Bobby Barbier can admit he was wrong.
âWhen we did the 40-game (conference) schedule, I thought (the standings) would be different,â he said. âI thought things would be more spaced out. I was wrong.â
Indeed as Northwestern State prepares to host Texas A&M-Corpus Christi in Thursdayâs 6:30 p.m. opener of the four-game series, the Southland standings are quite jumbled with five teams â including the Demons â having clinched spots in the conference tournament, which begins May 26 in Hammond.
NSU’s final series of the season also includes a 2 p.m. Friday doubleheader and a 1 p.m. Saturday series finale. Senior Day ceremonies for eight players will be held ahead of Saturday’s game. All four games can be heard on 95.9 FM and the Demon Sports Network. Free streaming audio and subscription video are available at www.NSUDemon

CORPUS CHRISTI, Texas â Researchers at Texas A&M-Corpus Christi are taking part in a new study on Bottlenose Dolphins.
The three year project examines the dolphins and the impacts from our environment. It s been 30 years since any research has been conducted, and little is known about their population. We take photos of the fins, we take all kinds of environmental quality things like the GPS coordinates, the salinity, the PH, the water temperature and when we come back to the lab that s when the work really starts, said Dr. Dara Orbach, Assistant Professor, Marine Biology at TAMU-CC.
