The two incubated, hatched and cared for chicks after they hatched with the help of Clements and decided to sell the chickens and donate the money they raised — $42 — back to the science department at Belmont.

ANOTHER VIEW Automation nation uman progress is bound only by the limits of human imagination, and the boundaries are dis- Happearing at warp speed. Information technology is lending an invisible hand to major sectors of human activity, and robots are muscling in on the rest. Whether it’s all, or just mostly, to the good is a subject for ethi- cists, philosophers and theologians. For everyone else, the challenge is simply how to adjust. Commerce makes the world go ‘round, and that’s not likely to change. Amazon, the world’s largest internet retailer, along with other Web-based sellers, moved a step closer to making rapid delivery via unmanned aerial vehicles a reality when President Trump signed an exec- utive order last month granting local governments more authority to test the use of drones for deliveries. The prospect of freeing the nation’s crowded road- ways from trucks and delivery vans is a welcome one. Pilot programs for drones, like Amazon’s Prime Air and Alphabet’s Project Wing, must earn their wings by demonstrating that a gust of wind or a dropped remote signal won’t send a whirligig laden with pizza and a six- pack into a tailspin that cracks a windshield or a pedes- trian’s skull.

PREP SOCCER: CHILES 7, COLUMBIA 1

WHAT HAPPENED WHAT IT MEANS WHAT’S NEXT

The Lady Tigers hosted the Lady Timberwolves Thursday. Chiles is sitting steady at No. 2 behind undefeated Leon Columbia looks ahead the 8th annual Maclay Invitational Chiles completed the regular season sweep on Columbia in District 2-4A standings. CHS and Gainesville remain this weekend. The Lady Tigers try to bounce back versus winning 7-1. Chiles picked up its fifth straight over CHS. winless in district play while Lincoln is pegged at No. 3. Florida High, Santa Fe and North Bay starting on Friday. FOUL MOOD Columbia girls not up to the challenge as Chiles pulls away in second half Thursday night By ERIC JACKSON [email protected] Columbia came out with spunk, looking for its first win over Chiles since 2015, but the Lady Timberwolves had other plans as they maintained their grip on the district series. In their first action since Thanksgiving break, the Lady Tigers struggled to stop the Lady Timberwolves’ offensive attack. Chiles forward Lindsey Scaringe led the way scoring her team’s first two goals in the 7-1 blowout victory over Columbia in the Jungle Thursday night. Chiles (5-2) dominated possession against Columbia (3-4) registering over nearly 20 shots during the league matchup. The Lady Tigers record- ed just five shots total as the Lady Timberwolves scored four goals after halftime to earn the lopsided league win. “If you don’t possess the ball, you’re going to lose,” said Columbia head coach Chip Garner. “Our possession had a lot to do with desire tonight. We had some players in new positions and it just did not click. We got to make some changes.” Columbia goalkeeper Emily Lamereaux did everything she could in a eight-save outing. Her performance was overshadowed though by the Lady Tigers’ constant shortcomings offensively. Columbia suffered down the stretch without standout scorer Irene Carrillo, who was out of town competing in a regional showcase. “It hurt a lot ,” Garner said of the absence of the top scoring threat. “When you lose somebody like that in the midfield, it’s hard to work around that. We don’t build around a single player though. Sometimes you just have those off nights, and this is one of them.” Chiles won its fifth straight over Columbia with help from Scaringe. The sophomore found the net as early as the 7th minute and followed with another goal just five minutes later. The Lady Tigers kept the Lady Timberwolves scoreless for most of the rest of the half until Margaret Harris scored in the team’s third goal in stoppage. Columbia’s offensive woes didn’t stop after half- time – and the once stout defense began to unravel in the early minutes of the second half. “They’re just really aggressive and our forwards we need to be more aggressive,” said Lauren Hutcherson, who scored Columbia’s lone goal.

2. Miami (10-1): There’s no getting around Sitting pretty it — the Hurricanes laid an egg at Pitts- burgh to close out the regular season. They need to bounce back in a hurry to deal with Clemson this weekend, though their playoff hopes are still alive. (LW: 2)

3. Virginia Tech (9-3): The Hokies closed out the regular season with a vintage day from Bud Foster’s defense, holding Virginia to 191 total yards, including just 5 yards on the ground in the Commonwealth Cup. (LW: 3)

4. N.C. State (8-4): Chronic kicking games issues aside, the totality of this season indi- cates progress for the Wolfpack. It might be tough to maintain next year with DE Bradley Chubb and FB/TE Jaylen Samuels graduating and QB Ryan Finley pondering turning pro. (LW: 5)

5. Louisville (8-4): Avenged last year’s loss to Kentucky, pummeling the Wildcats 44-17 to complete a strong finish to the regular season. Louisville could be headed back to Orlando for a bowl game for the second year in a row. (LW: 7)

6. Boston College (7-5): Steve Addazio called his shot after a loss to Virginia Tech dropped the Eagles to 2-4. Things did work out beautifully, as the Eagles won five of their last six and have a good shot at heading to the Pinstripe Bowl. (LW: 6)

SEC CHAMPIONSHIP NO. 4 AUBURN (10-2, 7-1 SEC) POWER RANKINGS VS. NO. 6 GEORGIA (11-1, 7-1) Breaking down the SEC When: 4 p.m. EST Saturday Where: Mercedes-Benz Stadium, Atlanta TV: CBS 1. Auburn (10-2): The nation’s best team in November? It’s tough to argue with dealing Alabama and Georgia their only losses of the season, regardless of where they hap- pened. (Last week: 2)

Dawgs and Tigers 2. Alabama (11-1): The Crimson Tide really want to be the second coming of the 2016 Ohio State, a team that didn’t win its divi- sion but earned a playoff berth anyway. Alabama probably needs some help from Ohio State and TCU this Saturday. (LW: 1)

3. Georgia (11-1): Had no trouble scooting past Georgia Tech, holding the Yellow Jack- ets to 226 total yards on the final day of the regular season. Now it’s off to the SEC title game and a chance to secure a playoff berth. (LW: 3)

4. Louisiana State (9-3): It was a stellar regular-season finale for Danny Etling, who torched Texas A&M for 347 yards and three TDs through the air. The Tigers will go for a 10-win season when they play in a bowl game likely to land on New Year’s Day. (LW: 5)

5. Mississippi State (8-4): Lost QB Nick Fitzgerald to a gruesome injury, committed five turnovers … and still nearly came back to beat Ole Miss. It’s a disappointing end to an otherwise commendable regular season for the Bulldogs. (LW: 4)

6. South Carolina (8-4): Ran only 54 plays (and mustered 207 yards) in a 34-10 loss to Clemson to close out the regular season. That’s four losses in a row to the Tigers, though the gap between the two isn’t quite the chasm it was last year. (LW: 6)

Missouri (7-5): Maybe the Tigers’ Alabama defensive back Hootie Jones (6) tackles Auburn quarterback Jarrett Stidham (8) during the second half of defensive progress was really a reflection the Iron Bowl Nov. 25 in Auburn, Ala.
