From staff reports
Bryan Schiding will become the interim head coach for Missouri Southern's men's track and field and cross country teams effective July 1. A national search will begin in January 2014.
Schiding will be replacing Tom Rutledge, who is retiring after 24 years at Missouri Southern. Rutledge was inducted into the Missouri Sports Hall of Fame on Sunday. He coached eight cross country All-Americans and 55 track and field All-Americans.
"I feel very fortunate to be given this opportunity," Schiding said. "MSSU cross country and track and field traditions have been built over years of hard work and dedication, not only to the sport but to MSSU and Joplin. I have been privileged to have spent these last four years learning under coach Tom Rutledge. I look forward to the challenges ahead and keeping our tradition and success intact into the future."
Schiding is in his fourth season as an assistant coach with the Lions, working primarily with the sprinters and jumpers. Over three seasons at MSSU, his athletes have combined for nine individual and two relay All-American awards. Ten school records have been set in sprints and jumps in the past three years.
"I am real excited to have Bryan step up into this position," MSSU athletics director Jared Bruggeman said. "His familiarity with the program is a great asset, and he knows the student-athletes. They have nothing but respect for him as he has shown proven leadership and is a winner as a coach."
Schiding's previous coaching experience includes six years as an assistant at Missouri S&T and three years as an assistant at LaSalle University in Philadelphia. He was named the NCAA Division II men's regional assistant coach of the year twice at Missouri S&T.
He competed at Bucknell University and set the school record in the indoor long jump. He also won conference titles in the long jump and triple jump.
"Bryan is a great coach and will do a great job for Missouri Southern," Rutledge said. "He knows our tradition and works great with the athletes. I am very happy that he will have his chance to prove the talents he has. He will maintain the character and winning attitude that we have established at MSSU."

Thomas: Oxford United's stability not hanging on play-offs
10:30am Friday 27th April 2012 in Oxford Utd By David Pritchard, Chief Sports Reporter covering Oxford United. Follow us on twitter: @oxfordmailoufc. Call me on 01865 425458
MISSING out on the play-offs would be disappointing, but not damaging to the stability of Oxford United, according to chairman Kelvin Thomas.
The U's looked certainties to claim at least a top seven place at one stage, but an ill-timed blip in form has set up a tense end to the campaign.
Last month United owner Ian Lenagan revealed the club's projected loss of £210,000 for the year 2011/12 could be wiped out by a successful run in the play-offs.
Thomas remains optimistic about the team's chances in the final two games, but made it clear if they were to fall short it would not have serious ramifications financially.
He said: "If we miss out on the play-offs it would be disappointing, there's not a person in the football club who would say anything different, but it certainly would not the end of the world.
"We're not a boom and bust club anymore, we're not a club that has to have success on the pitch to be stable."
Away from the pitch Thomas has been encouraged by the reaction from supporters this season.
Average gates have increased despite the bleak economic conditions.
Only Bradford City and Swindon Town attract larger attendances in npower League Two this season, while their 7,365 figure would make them the seventh best supported club in League One.
Early bird season ticket sales for the next campaign were strong, with almost 3,100 supporters booking their places this month.
Thomas said: "Fans will always vote with their feet and looking at the recent season ticket sales and the gates this year they've done that.
"The vote is not of despair, what's shown with our sales is people have enjoyed and got some entertainment from what's been on offer this season.
"We all know what we want to achieve and we want to do it together, it's about making sure the results match the performances.
"That's a lesson we'll learn and is part of our progression as a club."
He added: "With this football club there always comes an expectation, we've learned that and dealt with it as we've gone along.
"Sometimes it's realistic and other times it's unrealistic.
"We make sure we deal with it and try to use it to drive us forward."

No thanks, we've been there, done that, got the t-shirt and quite frankly, I don't want to go through that ever again. Look at the mess Plymouth were in, look at the mess Portsmouth and Glasgow Rangers are in? Years of mis-management have threatened their very existence and it looks incereasingly likely that Glasgow Rangers will have to fold and start from the bottom. Give me Lenagan over Murray and White anyday.
well here we go again about money, lenagan wants us to reach the play-offs so he dont lose the 210,000 now we know its all about the money and not the football club its about time you sold up mr lenagan coz lets face it with him in the hot seat we are going nowhere i think 2oz if we lose and i hope we dont there will be calls for a few heads to roll." OUFC 4 EVER"
If it was just about money, Mr. Lenagan would have walked a long, long, time ago. You don't buy a club like Oxford United and then expect to make money hand-over-fist.
He certainly would not have put the money in to allow Chris Wilder the extra budget to bring in players following a string of injuries that has hurt the team badly. He's done this because he can see that the club can afford this and felt there was a reasonable chance of at least making the play-offs (which there still is).
When we first went down to the conference, we followed the "throw everything at it or bust approach" and it very nearly destroyed the club. Thankfully the club owners and management realised their mistakes and set about resolving the situtation before it was too late.
The club is being well-run and have stringent budgets which are set to give the manager a decent amount to invest in players as he deems appropriate, that also make us competitive for the league we are in, but don't threaten the existence of the club.
I'd rather be Oxford than Crawley...

Headlights on for Safety
With the recent change from Daylight Savings Time back to Standard Time, and with the shorter days of fall and winter, motorists are spending more time driving in the twilight portions of the day. Both State and Municipal Law require drivers to have their headlights on from one half hour before sunset to one half hour after sunrise. Besides being necessary for seeing the roadway, having your headlights on allows other drivers to see your vehicle approaching and could possibly prevent accidents.
Some foreign countries require vehicles to have lights on at all times which is the reason some vehicles have daytime running lights installed as factory equipment.
Anything you can do to make your vehicle more visible to other drivers is a good idea and may prevent them from pulling out in front of you when they do not see you approaching.

PlayStation Move Review
Review Score
- PSU Review Score
- 8.0
- Avg. user review score:
- 9.2
You must be logged in to rate a game
Move is the most precise motion controller on the market and offers a brand new gaming experience on the PS3. With the launch of Move, Sony appears poised to change its game and introduce a new generation to the PlayStation brand. With triple-A titles launching around the holidays, even core gamers will have plenty of reason to see what all the buzz is about.
We like
- The precise tracking capabilities
- Move provides a unique gaming experience to the PS3
- The built-in vibration is even more responsive than the DualShock 3's
We dislike
- The PS Eye's sensitivity can create problems in brightly lit rooms
- Pricing may keep some away
- Move's performance is largely based on the software
See PSU's review on Metacritic & GameRankings
For as long as there's been a PlayStation 3, Sony has consistently touted that all of its consoles are built and marketed with a 10-year life span. So when the PS3 was released, complete with its beefy horsepower and a price tag to match, Sony wanted to provide features later into its lifespan to increase the console's appeal. One of those new features is nearly within consumers' grasp—the PlayStation Move.
Move is the PS3's answer to motion controls, and while strikingly similar to Nintendo's Wii, it utilizes different technology that offers one-to-one tracking. Both systems use a wand-style motion controller, but while the Wii utilizes infrared technology, Move uses the PlayStation Eye webcam to track the glowing ball on top of the controller. On a simple level, the LED marker tracking system allows the PS Eye to determine the controller's position and distance in the gaming environment. This technology allows three dimensional, highly accurate tracking of the Move controller.
Even with the addition of the Wii Motion Plus, Nintendo's controller is not nearly as precise as Move. Furthermore, Move uses a three-axis linear accelerometer and an angular rate sensor to track rotation and movement. Even if the controller is hidden from the camera, say behind the user's body, the internal magnetometer helps track Move and calibrate it against natural magnetic fields.
This is all technical jargon, and there is plenty more we could include, that is absolutely not necessary to understand in order to play. All you need to know is that the technology in the little black wand, coupled with the PS Eye, brings you into the game, sometimes literally with games like EyePet and Start The Party.
There are a few caveats that come along with all of this technology. Our review kit included two Move controllers, the PS Eye, and five games that will all be available at launch. As this writer was responsible for PSU's Move review coverage, I can tell you that it's extremely important to create a space big enough to move around, and sometimes that can be tough. My game room is pretty small. In fact, I had to rearrange furniture to find adequate space and a background that was not backlit by a window. This isn't exactly a complaint so much as a general warning: Move requires adequate lighting, plenty of open space, and a proper position for the Eye. I was able to make it work in my small room, but these requirements may not be attainable for everyone. The sensitivity of the PS Eye is partially the reason why set up is important.
As an example of how the PS Eye will impact your gaming experience, I recently attempted to make a video demoing Move and Sports Champions. The video was shot at night so several lights were used to illuminate the room. When trying to calibrate the controller to the PS Eye, an error message popped up, indicating there was too much light in the camera's view plane. Sure, this is not a problem many people will encounter, but it is worth noting that lighting is extremely important.
Once you figure out your optimal playing environment, you'll probably notice that Move's sensitivity is dependent on the software. For the sake of our review, we were given five games to try out. When it came to performance and lag, all five games had drastically different results (look for more details in our game-specific reviews). For instance, Sports Champions offers arguably the best performance, no lag, and provides a great representation of Move's capabilities. On the other hand, Kung Fu Rider really lacks originality with the use of Move and Racquet Sports (a game from Ubisoft, and the only title not from SCE) had noticeable lag. While this review is for the hardware, software developers will ultimately shape Move's future. It will be interesting to see how well the motion controller works when it's tacked onto games like Heavy Rain and Tiger Woods PGA Tour 11.
The Move controller is easy to hold, and feels like it's built quite well. The white ball on top is rubber, not a ping-pong ball, and the bottom of the controller has a port to plug-in a USB cord. Like other PS3 controllers, ... (continued on next page)

BAGHDAD — Less than a year and a half after the last U.S. troops left, Iraq's political leaders are openly debating the prospect of two dangerous paths for their country: de facto division or civil war. Perhaps both.
Tension between the Shiite majority, now in control of the levers of power, and the Sunni Arab minority, which dominated under Saddam Hussein, has been building for months. But politicians on all sides agree that the country has entered a perilous new phase, highlighted in late April by an attack on a Sunni protest camp by security forces that killed at least 45 people.

Written by Dan Caplinger, Daily Finance
As the end of 2013 approaches, many taxpayers are beginning to look for ways to reduce what they'll owe the IRS when they file their returns next April. But it's April 2015 we're concerned about now, because several key tax breaks that tens of millions of taxpayers enjoy are set to expire on Dec. 31, and that could cost you a pretty penny in the new year.
In recent years, one of the biggest challenges in tax planning has been guessing whether the annual ritual of congressional extensions on tax breaks will happen again. Often, lawmakers pass last-minute or even retroactive extensions to preserve popular incentives for future years. But there's no guarantee that will happen.
So to give you fair warning, here are just a few of the most widely-used tax breaks currently slated to vanish for 2014:
Mortgage Debt Forgiveness
Usually, if borrowers have part of their debt written off or forgiven, they have to treat that amount as taxable income. But in the aftermath of the housing market's implosion, homeowners who defaulted on their mortgages and had their bank write off or forgive part or all of their loans weren't required to claim the forgiven amount as income. The
Mortgage Forgiveness Debt Relief Act of 2007, which created this provision, has been extended before, but now, with home prices recovering somewhat, the incentive to preserve this provision is starting to fade. That makes it more likely that the mortgage-debt forgiveness provisions might not get renewed for 2014.
Itemized Deductions for Sales Tax
Federal tax law has allowed taxpayers to deduct state and local income taxes for years, but for the 57 million people who live in states that don't charge income tax, those provisions didn't provide any relief. That changed in 2004, when lawmakers allowed taxpayers to choose instead to take a similar
deduction for sales taxes. The provision, which was originally slated to expire at the end of 2007, has been repeatedly extended by Congress. Over the years, it has provided $16.4 billion in deductions to affected taxpayers.
Deductions For Teachers' Expenses
Teachers from kindergarten to high school are allowed to deduct up to $250 for money they spend
buying supplies for their classrooms. This deduction's available even to those who don't itemize, making it more valuable than most deductions. According to figures from The Tax Institute at H&R Block, more than 3.6 million teachers took advantage of this provision in 2010 to deduct $915 million in expenses. This deduction has been extended regularly ever since its initially scheduled expiration in 2005, so, even though it's on the chopping block again, it's a pretty good bet that lawmakers will let the tax break survive into 2014.
Equalizing Pre-Tax Benefits for Public Transportation Expenses
Under current law, employers may allow their employees to have
pre-tax money taken from their paychecks and directed to paying for parking expenses or the cost of public transportation. But for years, the maximum amounts for public-transportation expenses were only about half what car-commuters could take for parking. In 2009, lawmakers equalized those amounts. In 2013, that meant that $245 a month worth of commuting-related expenses could be paid for tax-free, whether that meant a transit pass or parking fees. But after a last-minute battle at the beginning of this year to extend the benefit retroactively to 2012, transit-riders are once again facing the expiration of the provision. In June, three lawmakers introduced the Commuter Parity Act to make the provision permanent, but the bipartisan proposal is stuck in limbo in the House Ways and Means Committee.
Higher Education Tuition Deductions
These provisions allow certain taxpayers to deduct between $2,000 and $4,000 of qualified educational costs. This provision was also retroactively reinstated for 2012 at the beginning of this year. The difference, though, is that other tax breaks also exist for educational expenses, including the Lifetime Learning Credit and the American Opportunity Credit. (You have to pick
either the tuition and fees deduction, or one of the two education credits. You're not allowed to double-dip.) Those tax credits makes it less crucial to extend the tuition deduction, although it's still a better deal for many people: The Tax Institute at H&R Block says that 2 million taxpayers used it to write off $4.36 billion in expenses in 2010.
Energy Efficiency Credits
Since 2006, taxpayers could claim a credit on certain expenses for remodeling their homes to make them more energy efficient. Currently, the maximum lifetime credit amount is $500, but amounts were higher in the past, and more than 43.5 million taxpayers have claimed an average of more than $765 using the credit.

What to Do with Unused Prescription Medication?
Sometimes All You Can Do Is Laugh
I hope everyone had a nice October. I am 26 and scheduling a double mastectomy for February with immediate reconstruction (expanders to implants). I had a benign breast tumor at age 21. Had a lumpectomy at age 24. Turns out I have pre-cancerous cells. (LCIS). Since this diagnosis, I have consulted with several experts and because of this diagnosis, my mom's breast cancer history, among other things... The consenses is that I need to get a double mastectomy ASAP. I FINALLY (2 years later) have the courage to schedule it. I have a great husband and 2 energetic kids ages 7 & 3.
To anyone who has been through this (God bless you!!) can you give me some insight what to expect for my recovery? Or any tips? I am afraid of my kids seeing me so sick in bed. Should I have my husband take them on a mini vacay the first few days after surgery? My mom will be helping to take care of me. I'm just terrified and don't know what to expect. Thank you!!
For this moment I am not going to address your questions as my immediate reaction is to ask why you are delaying this until February? The longer you wait, the more anxious you are apt to become. Worry festers in an unknown neighborhood.
If you have good reasons, it makes sense, Otherwise, you might want to give some thought to moving it up sooner.
Others will chime in with more responses and answers. I am sure their experiences will help considerably.
Please know that you will be in our thoughts. Keep us updated on how you are, and feel free to come here whenever.
Everyones breast cancer is different. only u know your body and what your doctors tell you. feel free for 2nd and 3rd opinions. I did. it took time, my sisters had a fit, saying why am i waiting so long. I was diagnosed in december 2011, all by myself, i got the word on a friday nite when it was too late to call most people i wanted to share with. but i did call my sons out of state. It was invasive ductal carcinoma in right breast 1.78 meters. i made the decision on the surgeons and then they went on vacation so we scheduled after that and it was double mastectomy on May 16th., 5months after diagnosis, i was scared to death too. and went thru many stages. one of them being total denial. i did alot of praying and god put one good friend in my life. .2 actually. 3 actually. god takes care of you all the way. My son came to take care of me. There is no way i couldve dealt with grandchildren. i love them immensely but this is a time for you to take care of you.
and im sure your mom can do that. But i would also if i had a husband would want him there while i recover.
God is awesome. believe you me he takes you thru . it will be okay. They got all my cancer but i am almost thru with chemo as it is and insurance policy for us. chemo is not easy, but i wouldnt let it get my spirit. i have my moments but im having beautiful breasts, almost time for final surgery, and then im done. Its been quite a journey. . and dont lift anything for a long time. ,,remember that. So take care of yourself, i cant express that enough, you are the most important person for the next year at least.
I am so sorry that you have to go the road nobody wishes to go. I haven't been posted here for awhile, but had a lot of help from survivors when I needed it the most...
I had bilateral mastectomy done 4 years ago, but without a reconstruction ( I did not want to wait 3 month for the surgery).
I have to tell you that it was a lot of pain that I had to deal with
in the first week. I had medications for that. My kids were older then yours, so they were helping me actually. Of course, I was scared, but I knew I had to go thrue this. With bilateral mastectomy I spared myself from radiation and chemotherapy. I had to take Tamoxifen, but stoped 6 months later ( it gave me rare but serious side effect- blood clot- DVT-). I survived this too. I am going on with my life, eating healthy and exercising.
I am sure that your mom and husband will help a lot with the recovery. Have faith in God and keep positive attitude no matter how hard it is. You will go thrue this difficult time, I am sure of it. Please, feel free e-mail me at email@example.com and I will be more then happy to answer all your questions that you may have...
God bless you and your family!
HERE's my condensed... and pertinent to you ... story...
... after undergoing lumpectomy... told I was worse than before .. took 3 months to get chemo started... finished chemo April 19... at that appointment a fellow chemo patient gave me the name of doctors in Beverly Hills... Dr Cassileth and Dr Memsic.... I wrote an email to Dr Cassileth on Friday night... Monday I received a call from her... she scheduled me for a consultation.... 2 weeks later I had surgery... Double-Mastectomy with immediate reconstruction !!!
No expanders !!!
I was in for surgery 7am... woke a little after noon... was transported to aftercare nearby... there for two days.... off pain meds by Saturday !!! drains out in week one.... THESE WOMEN ARE AWESOME.... before you do anything... I HIGHLY RECOMMEND YOU TALK WITH THIS DOCTOR....
I was driving 5 days after surgery cuz I was not on pain meds etc.... amazing procedure.... look up her website... drcassileth.com
contact me if you want ... check out my blog.... i am just trying to get it organized...
PS~ I rem. about as much from all of my reconstructive surgeries as I rem. from giving birth 2X. You know how it's written that if we recalled our pain in the delivery rm, we would never do it again? Well, all of my BC procedures are in this same place mentally... something I did that probably hurt then, but doesn't now and was well worth everything I endured. My experiences may have been better than other women, and I realize this, but they are still mine and real. BLESSINGS!
I will repost without Dr names....
Blessings to you to !
Blessings, Strength and Big Hugs to you and yours....
I was diagnosed one year ago... WISH I HAD KNOWN MORE.... through a series of lack of information... I went through the regular ... fumbling around finding facts about surgery, treatment, doctors... etc...

... check out my blog.... i am just trying to get it organized...
this year has been busy and productive .... but I have been hesitant to talk much about going through all of this....
My hair was down to my waist... lost it all two weeks in to chemo.... it is about two inches long now.... I followed all the doctors orders taking the steroids , antihistamines and anti-nausia meds throughout.... other than hair loss... you would not know I was in treatment.... I think I should have rested more but that is tough to do when so many people depend on you... you have an 82 year old Mom, sons and a 2 year old grandson that I am the primary caregiver for etc.... they kept me knowing what I was FIGHTING FOR, LIVING FOR, and WHAT IS IMPORTANT IN LIFE !!!
I just had my followup bone and CT Scans.... and I feel fantastic.... I picked up the CD with all my tests... I couldn't open the CD on my computer, but I did get to read the Bone Scan report saying that my bones showed no abnormal activity... contact me anytime !
GOOD LUCK and tons of prayers to you !!!
The way a double mastectomy has been explained to me, is that unless you have chemo and radiation, but you shouldn't be that sick. Some pain, but that should be about it. I was found to have DCIS (pre-cancerous condition) also, but no history bc in my family that I know of. I've had two lumpectomies in my left breast. That's where the DCIS was found. I stopped taking tamoxifen and effexor, my choice and because of some of what my surgeon told me about tamoxifen (he's super!). I've been cancer free for three years now and I'm back to yearly mammograms. I don't expect to have a bi-lateral mastectomy until and if the DCIS is found again. If I were in your shoes, I would only send the kids w/your dh on a mini vacation if you get too sick, but only so that you can have plenty of rest. Otherwise, I think they should be fully aware of what is going on with you. Please try not to be too terrified. I think you'll do fine. God bless you and keep you under his wing!
I am sorry that you have to go through this. But if you
can ward off cancer it could be a good choice. I had
bilateral cancer I had bi-lateral mastectomy. You will
be sore , but there will be pain meds. Ice helped alot
ask if you can use it.
I had expanders to implants, I even had nipples done.
They don't look too bad. So I fee pretty good
about how I look , and I am still here. The reconstruction
is a process, it takes time. You will get through this
please don't be scared.
Keep in touch and let us know how things are.

AppCoreKit offers to do heavy-app-lifting so devs can concentrate on iOS 7 eyecandy
During all the WWDC 2013 hubbub, I missed linking to AppCoreKit, a new iOS framework by WhereCloud. Here's how Fred Brunel, WhereCloud's CTO, describes it:
We've packaged great implementations of the most common design patterns right into AppCoreKit, so you don't have to reinvent the wheel every time you sit down and start a new iOS project. Our goal is to provide a thorough and reliable framework to the iOS development community, to allow them to spend less time on low-level app construction, and more time on the new visual language introduced with iOS 7.
I loved WhereCloud's late, lamented Twitter client, Reportage, and I've enjoyed several of their CocaoHeads presentations. This stuff is way over my head though, so if any devs among us give this a whirl, I'd be interested in knowing how well it works for you.
More: AppCoreKit
There are 2 comments. Add yours.
Thanks for the article. We also have a large number of samples to get you started rapidly on your new project. Those are already validated against the current version of iOS7.
Feel free to send us email with questions : email@example.com or follow us on twitter : @appcorekit
Sent from the iMore App
Got my hopes up seeing the article graphic. This looks like a good app, for people who like to type code still though.
But I sure miss the webOS on-line GUI that was largely click-drag for the framework, with just typing in the logic and variables. For a non-programmer like me, and some other doctors I know, it allowed us to code medical apps that were useful, without having to know too much programming. (I read parts of one Java book and one HTML app-coding book).
Still I applaud the tons of great iOS app-coders out there, and the devs like this who make it more doable for folks who aren't a dinosaur like me...

6:38 a.m. You go into the kitchen for breakfast. You pour some water into your coffeemaker. You simply take for granted that this water is safe to drink. But in fact you count on your city water department to constantly monitor the quality of your water and to immediately take measures to correct any potential problems with this vital resource.
Actually, at home I depend upon my own monitoring of my private well. And woe be unto anyone who pollutes the groundwater as they will be providing me with water at their cost. At work, I depend upon a private water company.
6:39 a.m. You flip the switch on the coffee maker. There is no short in the outlet or in the electrical line and there is no resulting fire in your house. Why? Because when your house was being built, the electrical system had to be inspected to make sure it was properly installed â" a service provided by your local government. And it was installed by an electrician who was licensed by your state government to ensure his competence and your safety.
Hmmm... When my house was built, the government inspector missed a bunch of problems. I'm glad the contractor did not -- he fired the sub and made it right. Most of the electrical systems in my home are UL approved -- including the coffemaker. UL is a private agency funded by the insurance industry that does testing.

Atlanta Falcons offense thriving under Dirk Koetter
Koetter was the head coach in Tempe from 2001 to 2006 and finished with a career record of 40-34. He was under .500 in conference play at 21-28, and the most wins the Sun Devils had in a single season during his tenure was nine.
His first season as the architect of the Atlanta offense has gone significantly better.
"A lot of the offense has stayed the same," said Atlanta quarterback Matt Ryan. "I think that's one of the things that's helped us. Dirk came in and changed a lot of his terminology to the terminology we've had. I think that's helped everyone in the transition."
Adjusting to your personnel instead of being stubborn and sticking with what you know is an underrated part of good coaching. The goal is to get the most out of the players even if it means leaving your comfort zone.
Just because the terminology has remained the same doesn't mean Koetter hasn't made any changes to the Falcons' offense. Last season, under offensive coordinator Mike Mularkey, Atlanta averaged 25 points per game. Under Koetter that number has jumped up to 27 points per game through nine contests.
"I think he has brought some different elements to our offense," continued Ryan. "He's done a great job with the vertical passing and also helped us in terms of screens."
The Falcons passing offense has improved from 262 yards per game last season to 292 yards this year. Atlanta has also increased its yards per attempt, from 7.3 to 7.9.
Koetter won't truly be judged until we see if the Falcons' offensive success in the regular season carries over to the playoffs. With Matt Ryan at the helm in three playoff games, Atlanta's offense has averaged under 12 points.
If he is able to help the Falcons advance in the playoffs, maybe Dirk Koetter will get another shot at being a head coach. Except this time, it won't be at the college level.

Delicious and moist! I made some changes to the recipe; I added 1 cup milk, 1 cup chips, 1 cup sugar, 1/2 cup oil, and some vanilla essence. With the sugar topping, they were plenty sweet. Only problem was there was way too much batter for 12 muffins; I ended up making two trays and they were done in 18 minutes. I give it four stars only because of all the changes I had to make; otherwise it would be five!
These turned out great - I followed the advice of other reviewers and used 1 cup milk (instead of 3/4 cup) and also used slightly more oil. They turned out fluffy, moist and delicious!!!
I have been using this recipe for a year now and it is my "official" chocolate chip muffin mix. By making some very simple alterations, I've had some really wonderful results. First, to combat dryness, I add the amount of 3/4 cup of milk AND 1/4 cup of sour cream. Not enough moistness for you? I've gone as much as 1/2 cup of the sour cream and been happy with it--depends on your tastes. I also add a teaspoon of vanilla extract into the batter, which lends a great flavor. I love the topping of sugars, but they are also wonderful with coarse sugar sprinkled on the top. It's a simple recipe that yields consistant results. My daughters love these muffins and request them often.

Diddy: The Michael Phelps Of Sex?
Posted on Wed Aug 13, 2008 09:55 AM PDT
P. Diddy hit up CoCo DeVille last night for a little late night partying - or should we say training?
During a recent conversation with New York Magazine, the hip-hop entrepreneur claimed the only Olympic sport he could win would be a contest of "who could have sex the longest."
"I think that's an event I could do well in," Diddy added. "And probably who could stay up the longest." Uh, duly noted, Puff!
Of course, Puffy was quick to point out that his remarks were "supposed to be funny - even though I am serious" before offering to match up with "whoever's up for the challenge". Anyone wanna take him up on it?
Diddy's, uh, event would have to be the only race where you finish by coming in last!

The Ivanpah Solar Project: Generating Energy Through Fields of Mirrors
When I visited the Ivanpah Solar Electric Generating System, which sits in the Mojave Desert on the border between California and Nevada, I had to be careful where I looked. The engineers warned me not to look directly at the receivers arrayed on top of the centralized solar towers, which collected the desert sunlight concentrated by thousands of mirrors on the desert floor. The solar receiver was as bright as the heart of the sun, glowing with a retina-melting white. I had to force myself to look away.

Daniel Boone is an American action/adventure television series that aired from September 24, 1964 to September 10, 1970 on NBC for 165 episodes, and was made by 20th Century Fox Television. The title role was played by Fess Parker. Ed Ames co-starred as Mingo, Boone's American Indian friend, for the first four seasons of the series. Albert Salmi portrayed Boone sidekick Yadkin in season one only. Actor and former NFL football player Roosevelt Grier made regular appearances in the 1969 to 1970 season. The show was broadcast "in Living Color," beginning in Fall, 1965, the second season. It was shot entirely in California and Kanab, Utah. Daniel Boone was one of two iconic historical figures played by Fess Parker. He previously appeared as Davy Crockett in a series of episodes of the Disney anthology television series, to considerable acclaim. For his role as Boone, which lasted far longer but had arguably less impact, Parker again wore a raccoon hide coonskin cap, which had been popularized years earlier by the Crockett shows. Daniel Boone's headgear was even mentioned in the show's theme song: "From the coonskin cap on the top of ol' Dan...."although the real life Daniel Boone did not actually wear a coonskin cap. Parker's Boone was less of an explorer and more a family man than Parker's Crockett. Boone's wife Rebecca (played by Patricia Blair) and son Israel (Darby Hinton) were often featured in the stories. In reality, Boone had ten children. During the first two seasons, his daughter Jemima was shown (played by Veronica Cartwright), but she disappeared with no explanation toward the end of the second season. The series was set in the 1770s, just before and during the American Revolution, and mostly centered on adventures in and around Boonesborough, Kentucky. Some aspects of the show were less than historically faithful, which at one point led the Kentucky legislature to condemn the inaccuracies.
What an amazing DVD Set for the Daniel Boone Fan!

---- — We watched and reported as cities and counties throughout our coverage area declared states of emergency as the winter storm got progressively worse on Sunday. With the road conditions deteriorating with each passing hour, we fully expected area leaders to take that course of action. Anyone with a window should have expected the declarations to be made.
But we must say we were quite dismayed it took Cass County officials so long to make the right call. Looking at a statewide map of counties' declared status, Cass County was awash in a sea of red. Every county touching Cass had upgraded their status to red, meaning no one was to be on the roads except for emergency vehicles. You had to go several counties away on that map to find anything but red.
And there's good reason for that. It's bad out there. No, it's horrible out there. A blizzard warning was even declared for our area. As if the massive amount of snow falling wasn't enough of a problem, plow crews were also being hit hard by blowing and drifting snow. They were fighting a losing battle. Even though the snow has stopped, they still find themselves fighting a losing battle with high winds.
And if Mother Nature wasn't causing enough problems for road crews on Sunday, abandoned vehicles blocking roadways weren't helping their cause any. The drivers of those vehicles found out the hard way that this isn't your average winter storm. Efforts that should have been focused on clearing the roadways were being spent on rescuing stranded drivers. And in many cases, they were drivers who shouldn't have been out in the first place.
This is a whole new beast we're dealing with, folks. Plow crews are encountering snow drifts measuring 2 to 4 feet deep. They're finding four-wheel drives can't even make it through. And considering as such, a state of emergency should have been declared much earlier than it was.
But the blame doesn't rest solely on the shoulders of county officials. Yes, they should have made the call sooner than they did, but citizens need to make the right call for themselves. And let us not forget the role business and industry leaders play in all this. Corporations need to do what's best for their employees.
No one should feel pushed beyond their comfort level when the roads are this bad. We heard from many readers who didn't want to get out into a storm such as this but felt they had to because their job could hang in the balance. Even if the county hadn't made the call, company leaders should have made the right call. And, many of them did. We got reports throughout the evening Sunday of factories and businesses shutting their doors. Good managers making good calls likely saved a life or two on Sunday.
But for those not taking this winter storm seriously, we can't plead with you enough to change your mind. This storm is dangerous and everyone needs to be on top of their game. The safety of everyone depends on it.
THE ISSUE Cass County's delayed declaration of a state of emergency. OUR VIEW This storm is dangerous and everyone needs to be on top of their game.

Jury selection is underway for the trial of four Palm Desert residents each facing a misdemeanor charge in connection with Occupy Coachella Valley protests in Palm Desert last fall.
Jack Lee Noftsger, Mary Elizabeth Walker, Dustin David Powell and
Stephen Mark Finger were arrested Nov. 1 on suspicion of camping illegally in
Palm Desert's Civic Center Park as part of the nationwide Occupy Wall Street
The defendants, free on their own recognizance, each are charged with
one count of unlawful assembly.
The case was sent to Riverside last week because there weren't
courtrooms available in Indio, according to Roger Tansey, the attorney for
Walker and Powell. Jury selection is expected to be completed Tuesday, followed
later in the day by opening statements, Tansey said.
Co-defendant Ryan Donald Cartwright of Palm Springs pleaded guilty last
month to a misdemeanor charge of disturbing the peace and was sentenced to
three years probation and 40 hours of community service. Gale Wheat of
Indio, who was also arrested in connection with the protest, pleaded guilty in
February to an infraction for staying in the park past curfew and was fined
Members of the group had been in Civic Center Park since Oct. 24,
participating in the nationwide Occupy movement, intended to draw attention to
what demonstrators said was the growing gap between rich and poor.
The defendants were arrested by deputies sent to the park to enforce the
11 p.m. curfew on Nov. 1, sheriff's Lt. Andrew Shouse said.
The group was granted temporary use permits by the city over four days
in the last week of October, which allowed them to stay overnight in the park.
The city declined to issue another permit at the end of the week, and sheriff's
deputies asked the protesters to leave.
"Most of the subjects relocated to the sidewalk upon our arrival,''
Shouse said then. "Seven subjects remained on the park property and were
arrested.'' Two more people were arrested an hour later after they entered the park "in defiance of officers who were securing the scene,'' Shouse said. Another woman was arrested later that night, he said.
City Attorney Robert Hargreaves previously said the city supported the
group's First Amendment rights, but could not allow the park to be used as a
campground for an extended period of time.
"By providing Occupy Coachella Valley with a highly visible, dry,
shaded space with 24-hour access to restrooms, the city accommodated the
group's First Amendment rights while protecting public health and safety and
the rights of our residents and visitors to continue using Civic Center Park,''
according to a city statement.

Mobile, Ala. – Tomorrow marks the start of competition for Erica Swanson, the Ottumwa teen competing in the 56th Distinguished Young Women National Finals. Swanson, along with 49 other state representatives, has been in Mobile, Ala. for the past two weeks participating in community activities and preparing for the national scholarship competition.
The program's evaluation process includes scholastics (20 percent), interview (25 percent), fitness (15 percent), talent (25 percent) and self-expression (15 percent). During the preliminary competition tomorrow and Friday, each participant will compete in the categories of self-expression, fitness and talent. Swanson has completed an individual interview with a panel of five judges and her scholastic performance has been scored through an evaluation process of her high school academic record and standardized test scores.
On Saturday, June 29, ten finalists will be selected from the group of 50 young women and will compete for the opportunity to represent the program as the Distinguished Young Woman of America for 2013 and for a share of more than $100,000 in cash college scholarships.
"Each of the 50 state representatives has demonstrated her commitment to scholarship, leadership, and talent, and has worked toward making a lasting impact on her community through a dedication to service," said Heather Rocker, executive director of Distinguished Young Women. "The young woman selected as the Distinguished Young Woman of America will represent not only the other program participants from across the country but also girls of all ages who have inspiring goals and bright dreams for a better tomorrow."
For her talent presentation, Swanson will perform a tap dance to "Black Horse and the Cherry Tree". Swanson is a 2013 graduate of Ottumwa High School and the daughter of Patricia and Don Swanson.
To view the live webcast of the Distinguished Young Women National Finals, visit http://www.distinguishedyw.org on Saturday, June 29 at 7 p.m. CST. To see photos of participants from their time in Mobile, visit http://www.fpvision.com.
