No, no, nothing nefarious is going on with Bulldog academics. Those involved individuals weren't looking to simply stay eligible, Mullen explained. "Our guys are pretty competitive! So they want those grades even higher." Related to grades, the coach doesn't expect any of the 2012 varsity to miss the Gator Bowl for grade issues.
Mississippi State put in the third day of real bowl preparations today, polishing the schemes installed on Monday for the New Years Day matchup with Northwestern. The Bulldogs have just one more day on campus left, as after Thursday's morning session they will be excused for a quick Christmas vacation. The State squad is scheduled to arrive in Jacksonville on the 26th whether traveling with the official party from Starkville or, as per NCAA allowance, making the road trip on their own.
In the post-practice interview, Mullen said these first three days have resulted in "pretty solid practices."
"I've liked the transition, obviously back into game prep. And it's always a great week now in our schedule, is try to get ready to play the game like its this Saturday. I think our guys have done that, had the good focus, good preparation. We've got to clean up some things tomorrow out there before we leave. But at that point hopefully we're ready to play the game. And then you get the confidence builder when you get to the bowl of reviewing basically the whole bowl practice week again."
You have practiced at Scott Field? "Yeah, we've been there all week. Just with some of the storms this weekend. We get good film over there. And we're not playing in there this weekend so we can use up that turf."
Early thoughts on the challenges preparing for Northwestern? "They present a lot. They're a team that probably should have won the Big Ten and (be) playing in the Rose Bowl, won their conference championship. You know, a couple of plays here and some weird mishaps in games and they would have been in the Rose Bowl. So, very talented in every phase of the game."
"They've got an explosive offense, one of the top rushing offenses in the country, running a very high-tempo. Some stout, physical offensive linemen, some fast, play-making receivers and a quarterback and a running back that can score every time they touch the ball."
"On the defensive side of the ball big, stout, physical players up front. They've got big, athletic linebackers. They're one of the top teams in the country."
With Nick Griffin down does Josh Robinson get more looks? "I think him, (Derrick) Milton, all those guys know that when they get that opportunity they're ready to step up. And those running backs are going to get their opportunities in the game in a couple of weeks."
Talk about your two junior college signees today? "Yeah, very excited. You know, Justin Cox, an all-American defensive back that signed with us a couple of years ago. You look at those young guys, very proud of him that here it is a year-and-a-half later took care of his business and did needed to do. Not just on the football field but in the classroom. So we're very excited to have him back."
"And Jeremy Chappelle is a receiver. You look at our receiver depth chart…and both of those, our defensive backfield with a lot of guys leaving and at the receiver position with five seniors, it's huge for us to get guys coming in in the spring, that they'll make a contribution."
Comment on what those receivers have done? "This is it, this is their last opportunity, so I know they're going to be extremely motivated to go have a great game. These are guys that almost all of them have really been playing for four years, you know. They didn't have the opportunity to redshirt when they came here or to develop in time. They just got thrown right into the mix. But they've continually developed, had great careers here, and I know they'd like to finish it with a win."
What makes Arceto Clark tick? "I don't know, he's quiet with me, too. So you know what, Arceto is a guy who takes care of his business. I mean early on when I got here and started coaching him early in his career we didn't know what his future was going to be. But he's bought into the program. He's one of our graduates, takes care of his business on and off the field, does things the right way. And he's had a successful career on the field and obviously had great success off the field as well."
What has Tim Brewster meant for developing the receivers? "I think he's done a great job. I think his experience at that position; I knew when we hired him you're getting a guy that had head coaching experience coming in. I think maybe being out of it for a little bit his passion is really showed with those guys. And we knew we had an experienced bunch Then you give them an experienced coach on top of that, it's shown great production out of that position."
How has Tyler Russell looked on the ankle? "Good. He's thrown throughout the whole time. You know what, actually he was average today, he missed a couple of throws today, made a couple of missed reads. But he's been pretty good all week. But as he said, he's a guy that's played some football, so he knows he's got some time to get some things cleaned-up. And you're always going to add a couple of new wrinkles for the bowl game so we'll get some of those things cleaned-up tomorrow."
What instructions do you give going into the Christmas break? "Some of them can eat a lot, some not as much! No, I mean our biggest concern is safe travels for our guys. There's a lot of guys that are going to be excited go get home, they're young kids ready to get back home. But go enjoy the time-off with their families, enjoy the holidays and spend it with the people they haven't been able to see throughout the course of the season. My biggest concern is always them travelling safe to get home and safe either back here or to the bowl site."
You had a good-sized group of December graduates? "Yeah, Kylie Amato and our academic office does a fabulous job. I don't know if it's been announced yet, they showed me the 2.65 team GPA. And actually I was told it might go up because a couple of kids got some grades changed. Because our guys are pretty competitive! So they want those grades even higher. But she does a great job with those guys. And even throughout the time I think we're going to have more and more guys in graduate school playing on the football team here in the future."
Is everyone OK eligibility-wise for the bowl game? "Ahhhh, yeah. I mean, couple of walk-ons didn't pass all their classes, but no names you guys would want to put in the paper probably."
Baker Swedenburg doesn't put up the big numbers but does so many things well, does he get overlooked for awards? "I don't know that. Because they want the guys that have the huge legs. I think he does a great job, and our guys do a great job of knowing what he does. He's very accurate, has great consistency, and I think when you do that it shows in the coverage units. Our coverage units are usually right where they need to be because the ball is right where they need to be. I guess good-and-bad, he doesn't outkick his coverage a whole lot; but he doesn't underkick his coverage much either. He just kind of kicks to his coverage and our guys, that consistency has helped him a lot."
Talk about defending Northwestern's running back? "You better tackle him. I mean he's fast in the open field, he's a great punt returner, a great kick returner, they get him the ball in the open field and he can go score from anywhere. So you've got to get guys running to the football who can contain him and wrap him up."
What do you like as a group about the young cornerbacks? "Yeah, we need a lot more. I know that, when you have three of them walking out the door we're going to need a whole lot more at that position. But we'll hopefully take care of that in the next six weeks."

sounds like Rudolph the Red Nosed Reindeer
"I don't want to make toys, I want to be a dentist!"
Reeeeally hope someone's gonna like this... This is a little project I'm undertaking, it's a very short (but hopefully enjoyable) Manga.
This is Lucas. He's part of a tribe living in a rainforest. There are plenty of jobs to be done in the tribe, such as hunting, cooking, making clothes and food.
Lucas is a warrior's apprentice.
Lucas' parents want him to become a real warrior when he is old enough, but Lucas' heart isn't in it. He wants to become an artist, creating masterpieces with the juice of the berries that grow in the forest. He doesn't agree that fighting is the answer to the world's problems.
I'm writing a manga about the journey he takes to get away from the world of war and follow his dreams.
Soooo what does everyone think?
sounds like Rudolph the Red Nosed Reindeer
"I don't want to make toys, I want to be a dentist!"
I was thinking you were going to attempt to mangafy the movie Lucas, but anyways, that sounds interesting.
Sounds like quite an interesting idea you could include lots about the morals of war and peace etc
Well, it's different from yours, obviously, you should check it out sometime, it's a nice movie.
Awesome, good to see positive reaction.Awesome, good to see a positive reaction! I'm at the stage of drawing out all the character's expressions and stuff for practice and planning out the storyline. I've never done this before so if there's a way to go about it, could someone run it by me?
Sorry I don't have much experience but I would imagine you would just make a story board or something then draw it out when you got it all planned?
I find it helps to make a script first, then create super fast and simple mini-versions of the pages to work out how stuff is going to look. Neither has to have that much effort to put in, since nobody else will see them; They are just there so that you remember the idea as it was originally formed in your head, and catch out any rubbish bits before you actually spend the effort making it all look nice. Sometimes I just do one of the two.
The idea... Seems legit. Like a sort of anti-version of the Zelda: Ocarina of Time maybe.
i would like to help you with the script and the character development. im working on a script myself. but i would be more than glad to help you if you want.
and just as a idea : how about using his artistic skills in war / fight scenes. like he disagrees with his parents that such skills are not useless at all.
eg - he can inflict pain through his drawings or seal some one in his portraits and stuff. If you want to develop the story like this, would add a interesting factor, and you can still maintain the fact that he despises war and fights

Happy Birthday: Kenseth wins at Las Vegas
Mar 10, 2013, 6:23 PM EDT
Matt Kenseth gave himself a nice present for his 41st birthday, turning back Kasey Kahne to win the Kobalt Tools 400 at Las Vegas Motor Speedway.
Kenseth, who became the third driver in NASCAR Sprint Cup Series history to win on his birthday (Kyle Busch and Cale Yarborough, who did it twice), took the lead under yellow on pit road with 42 laps to go after he and his No. 20 Joe Gibbs Racing team elected not to take any tires. The 2003 Cup champion then had to battle Kahne, who drew within striking distance in the final laps but was unable to get by for a winning pass.
"I was real nervous all day," Kenseth told Fox Sports in Victory Lane about Kahne stalking him in the late stages. "[Kahne] had the best car, and I told [crew chief] Jason [Ratcliff] with about 12 to go, I apologized to him like 'Sorry, man, I'm gonna get beat.' I was being too tight and I was killing the right front. I just had to make sure I stayed in front of [Kahne].
"We didn't have quite the fastest car there in the end, but we had it where we needed it to be. Great pit stops, great pit strategy — we were in the right place at the right time and we took advantage of it today."
Kahne led the most laps of any driver with 114 circuits paced, but had to settle for second place. Brad Keselowski posted a third-place result, with Las Vegas' own Kyle Busch and last week's winner Carl Edwards coming home fourth and fifth respectively.

Mike Conway's come-from-behind IndyCar win at Long Beach nearly two weeks ago may have been a surprise to some. But it wasn't a surprise to team owner Ed Carpenter or Conway himself. They both had confidence in each other for a strong run and a high finish – and the win was just an added bonus.

Sending our young men and women into conflict is an awesome decision. I pray that our president will make this decision without listening to the talking heads on TV and in the print media. It should be on an evaluation of our intelligence about the Syrian government and the rebels. The decision should consider history about past combat actions but he should not become a slave to history. As a historian, I believe history provides lessons our leaders should consider, but I also believe every event in history is unique. History can only provide a considered background, not an infallible prediction of the future.
Our 24/7 coverage of this conflict and the debate in Congress and among interested citizens include graphic online videos. No one can be unmoved by the views of children dead from sarin gas and others foaming at the mouth. No one can be unmoved by the cold-blooded execution of captured Syrian soldiers by a rebel group. These images should be considered in our decisions, but taken with a large dose of skepticism. Those releasing the videos have an agenda, and their motives must be factored into our decisions.
The final decision must be backed by real intelligence about what is happening, a very deep and considered thought process that sorts out the vast amount of information about the conflict and develops intelligence that is not biased by political views of what that information really shows. The decision must not be based on someone's lifting a finger to see which way the hot air of the 24/7 media is blowing.

Should photos of Osama bin Laden's body be released?Thursday, May 23rd, 2013
An organization has been trying to require the CIA to release photos of Osama bin Laden's body, but a court dealt them a major defeat this week.
A federal appeals court ruled Tuesday that the federal government does not have to release the photos, which the conservative watchdog group Judicial Watch had requred under the federal Freedom of Information Act.
The Washington D.C. appeals court concluded that the photos, both of his corpse and of his burial, could reveal classified information and cause a violent backlash against American citizens. A federal circuit judge had reached a similar conclusion last year.
But Judicial Watch maintains the photos should be released.
Should photos of bin Laden's body have to be released? What do you think?

Oster and Airich awarded All-Region Gold Gloves
Both infielders will be on ballot for All-American honors
SAVANNAH, GA - North Georgia College & State University placed two players on the Rawlings/ABCA All-Southeast Region Gold Glove Team announced yesterday afternoon. Both Anders Oster and Andre Airich were named First Team for their defensive efforts this season.
After being named First Team, Oster and Airich are now eligible to be selected as national Gold Glove winners, an award a North Georgia athlete is yet to receive since entering the NCAA. The Division II All-America Gold Glove team will be announced at next week's Division II Baseball Championship in Sauget, IL.
Anders Oster finished the season with a .963 fielding percentage, recording 110 putouts and 250 assists, shattering the school record which previously stood at 193. Oster also set the program mark for career assists, vaulting to first place with 618 after just his junior season. He also set the school record for double plays turned with 43, taking over the previous mark of 41. Oster committed just 14 errors during the 2008 season, including a stretch that saw him commit just one error over 18 games.
Andre Airich completed the 2008 season with a fielding percentage of .926, committing just 16 errors in 215 chances. He registered 60 putouts and 139 assists while helping turn 11 double plays. After moving over to third base for the 08' season, Airich finished the year strong with just one error over his final 13 games.

Learning Outcomes: Core Learning Outcomes
DESCRIPTION OF CORE ASSESSMENT for EC 300:
All Park University courses must include a core assessment that measures the course's Core Learning Outcomes. The purpose of this assessment is to determine if expectations have been met concerning mastery of learning outcomes across all instructional modalities. For this course, the core assessment is a research paper worth 20 percent of the student's final grade. This paper will assess students' mastery of four Core Learning Outcomes (Outcomes 1, 2, 3, and 4 listed on this syllabus).
Each student will be randomly assigned one of the general topics outlined below. The student must then choose an original, unique specific topic by finding a real-world example of the general topic. For instance, a student could choose Microsoft as an example of an unregulated monopoly. Students may not use specific topics mentioned in the textbook, and no two students may have the same specific topic.
NOTE: Instructors may add requirements to those listed below and for grading purposes may add criteria not listed in the Core Assessment Rubric.
General Topics
MONOPOLY (UNREGULATED): Analyze the structure of a private, unregulated firm that is a monopoly or has been a monopoly in the recent past. Show graphically and explain how the firm fulfills the characteristics of monopoly. Identify the causes of monopolization and discuss the firm's pricing and profits. Discuss the impacts of the firm's pricing on consumer choice.
MONOPOLISTIC COMPETITION: Analyze the structure of a monopolistically competitive industry. Show graphically and explain how the industry fulfills the characteristics of monopolistic competition. Discuss the industry's pricing, profitability, and future trends in industry structure.
OLIGOPOLY: Analyze the structure of an oligopolistic industry. (Be sure to discuss the entire industry, not a single firm.) Identify why it is oligopolistic and discuss pricing strategies, profitability, and the relationship between firms within the industry. Show graphically and explain briefly the kinked demand curve model and discuss whether the industry's pricing fits the model.
REGULATION OF NATURAL MONOPOLIES: Analyze the structure of a regulated natural monopoly (e.g., a public utility). Identify why it is a natural monopoly and show this graphically. Discuss its profitability and how the regulatory agency controls the firm's pricing.

Students should use at least four different acceptable research sources excluding the course textbook. The quality and quantity of these references will determine the amount of points earned for research.
Acceptable Sources: In general, citations from Internet websites will NOT count as an acceptable source unless the citation is from a U.S. government website. The Internet can be used to find on-line versions of publications, but such citations should be made only for articles that are published in paper form (i.e., can be found in a library). For instance, you could use a New York Times article that is downloaded from the Internet. Encyclopedias and abstracts are not valid sources. Cutting and pasting information from the Internet is plagiarism.
Recommended Sources:
Format for Citations:
Cited research sources must be Xeroxed and included in the brown envelope with the student's research paper. If a book or an article with more than 15 pages is cited, Xerox copies of the title page (not the book's cover) should be included with copies of specific pages cited.
Topic Paper Grading Criteria
The purpose of the topic paper and presentation is to gain a deeper understanding of a theoretical economic concept through its application to real-world situations. Papers will be assessed according to the appropriate application of economic theory to the specific topic chosen by the student.
Application of Economic Theory:
· Are concepts based in economic theory and supported by the real-world data?
· Are economic terms defined?
· Are economic concepts explained accurately?
· Are facts presented and cited accurately?
· Is a thorough understanding of concepts demonstrated?

A sock banquet!
We've passed the height of harvest season, which means good eats and warm treats, particularly on the most food-tastic holiday, Thanksgiving. I figured, in honour of the season, I'd serve you up a couple courses of food-themed socks.
I grew up with big family get-togethers for Thanksgiving. Everyone would bring stuff that had to be finished up or heated up, and while we waited we'd nosh on crackers and cheese. The Cheese Crews offer quite the array of nibbles.
Once it's time to dig in, you make sure you get some veggies to balance things out. Sadly (or maybe not so sadly) we don't have any socks that properly represent green bean casserole with fried onion straws on top. But we do have Ashi Dashi's delicious Corn Crews. They're corn on the cob, not the creamed corn you often see at holiday potlucks, but they're just as deliciously delightful!
Of course, the big part of a Thanksgiving meal is the turkey. Although a lot of Sweet Marcel's styles are made at an ethically-certified mill in Turkey, that's about as close as we get to that distinctive bird. Our ham is a little rare (as in, still oinking), so we'll throw tradition to the wind and tuck into some red meat.
• Bacon Crews •
• Ashi Dashi Meat Midcalf •
• Meat Knee Highs •
Okay, you're probably thinking, "that's a pretty light spread for one of the biggest holiday meals of the year." Well, that is because we wanted to make sure you had room for dessert!
The beauty of potluck holiday meals is that everybody brings a dessert. So. Do you want some cookies?
Or maybe a slice of cobbler? (one of our four delicious Dessert Stripes!)
Or just some chocolate? Or ALL the chocolate?
Ahh, now that's how you end a meal. Add a little after-dessert wine, or coffee and some hangouts with family and friends.
We hope you have a wonderful start to the winter holiday season!

Starry socks to fall for!
Okay, I'm an adult, I know that meteor showers aren't falling stars. But it's such a prettier name! And a great excuse to look at socky, starry goodness. The Leonid metor shower is peaking either Saturday the 16th or Sunday the 17th (it looks like fair game for either right now), so let's kick back and enjoy some stars that a full moon and cloud cover can't foil!
Although you can search for Sparkly in Pattern & Texture, there isn't a search value for stars right now because we often don't have that many! But of course, you can always just take a gander with general search. Wow, our night sky is actually pretty full!
We've got rainbow stars in the Neon Night Sky Over your Knees and Rainbow Star Acrylic Knee Highs.
If those are too crazy (I mean, even though stars do have different colours depending on their temperatures), then the sedate Sheer Star Tights and the sparkly Snappy Star Garters might be more your speed.
Of course there are always the very sciencey Constellation Knee Highs, Midcalves and Outer Space Knee Highs if it's the cosmos, not the shape, that's your thing.
Good luck watching the stars tomorrow night! And if you look hard enough, who knows what you might see. . .

Socks for November!
The yellow of friendship in topaz (which actually comes in a surprising array of hues) and citrine are the gems for November. Visually, it's almost impossible to tell cut topaz and citrine apart, but topaz is a bit harder in texture. Both stones are rather pale, and these pastel yellows definitely do the trick.
• ECO Hemp Birdseye Bootsock •
• Orkney Angora Wrist Warmers •
• Silk & Cotton Crews •
November's flower is the chrysanthemum, which I am thankful to Spellcheck forever about. It's another entry in the Asteraceae family, along with September and October's flowers.Their complicated layers of petals mean it isn't often represented on socks, but with a name that comes from "gold" and "flower" (the Greek "chrysos" and "anthemon"), I think we can do it justice with the Polonova Flower Trouser Socks and Polonova Floral Lace Trouser Socks.
Now, I've thought I've been in a tight spot before with these constellations, but I'm absolutely lost as to how to represent scorpio in socks! Maybe something with wide stripes to represent that segmented tail and basic arm warmers that have that thumb-hand separation that can look cool and claw-like? I don't know, like the Dreamer Ruffle Striped OTK and the Space Dyed Long Perfect Arm Warmers?
Although, the more I think of it, the more I realise that the Leaf Pattern Fleece Arm Warmers encompass all those aspects in one go, the segmentation, the claw shape (with that pointed bit at the hand, even!). They're also kind of perfect for the cold November weather.
Just one more month of birth symbols left! How the year is flying by (which I think is the motto of November, or at least should be!)
by Brenna
November 1st, 2013
It's cold outside, and a lot of us Dreamers have given up our razors for the winter (those of us who use them, anyway). Conveniently, this month is also the start of No-Shave-November "Noshember", a fun challenge of setting down that razor and seeing what happens. Noshember is about folks "[uniting] in the height of laziness agreeing to not shave their beards or legs."
And it's not just about making things easier during one of the busiest times of year! The various No-Shave-November groups are also involved with charities, which is a great incentive for getting past those first painfully stubbly days.
If you're focusing on the face and want to coordinate your socks with your new look (or if you can't grow good face hair but want to have 'stache solidarity), then we have some marvellous moustache options for you!
For larger feet, you have the Mustache Argyle Midcalves and the less formal (no argyle, y'know) Mustache Midcalf.
And larger feet can fit into the Mustache Tights too! Our be-stached knee high options (with and without argyle) only fit up to a US women's shoe size 11 and men's size 9, though (but they're pretty perfect for smaller feet, perfectly fitting down to a US women's size 6!).
Okay top halves covered, but what about options that won't clash with incoming leg hair? Socks, especially our thick and cozy house brands, pretty much always do a great job covering leg hair, but what about if you want something dressier or nylon?
Our Opaque section offers styles in varying levels of opacity that all do a pretty solid job of hiding leg hair (though, from experience, any lighter colour over darker leg hair will never be perfect!). Bonus: most opaque styles are going to be warmer, which is perfect for all that incoming winter weather!
Probably everyone's favourite legginga (and remember one of the differences between Leggings and Footless Tights is opacity) are the Thermo Fleece Lined Footless Tight (so cozy!), the Black Velvet Legging (so fancy!) and Nouvella's Cotton Legging or Capri (the best basic!).
But what about tights—and something fancier, or more office-y? In solids, both the Color Tights and Opaque Tights are awesome and come in a million colours and the Erika Microfiber Tights are magic, because they're the only microfiber cotton we've encountered. Seriously, they are the best.
In patterns you have your pick! There are classy classics like the Ribbed Pinstripe Tights and gorgeous romantic styles like the Floral Tights.
And don't think you're stuck without stockings if you don't want to shave, because there are plenty of thigh high options! The Lycra Cuban Heeled Two-Tone Stockings are a wonderful winter option to the traditional sheer Cuban heel, and the Solid Thigh High Stockings are just a great basic all around.
So do you stop shaving this time of year, for a cause or for yourself?

Midnight Monster Movie with Socks!
This summer we went to the drive-in, but it's too cold to do that in the autumn. Now's the time of year for sitting in the dark and getting your scare on! Even though Halloween is still practically a week away, this is the big weekend before the holiday, a perfect day to premiere the latest on the silver screen.
Ooh, we took too long in the concession line! We missed the previews, but it doesn't look like we missed any of the story . . . (And if you're curious who any of the "actors" are, just click the links!)
Oh no, our hero (the always heroic Luchadore) is totally going to go into that haunted house, isn't he?
Those stairs do not look like good business.
TOLD. YOU. Those are guts, he stepped in guts.
Wait, he's still going up the stairs? To the ominous red door.
Come ON, he's opening the door? Yes, that is a way to get straight up unravelled, Mr. Sock.
. . .
. . .
Yeah, that would be my reaction too.
What, it's a birthday party?! With cupcakes!! Now THAT is a twist ending. Wait a second. . . but what about those guts?
Have a fun and safe Halloween folks! And don't forget to share your costumes with us on Facebook or Tumblr and let us know how our socks helped you pull it altogether!

BlaBlaCar is Europe's largest car sharing community, with over 3 million users enjoying a new, fun, social and sustainable travel solution.

DRIVERS: Offer a ride, indicating if it's a one-off or regular journey, and find passengers to share your costs with. BlaBlaCar is designed for drivers to offset their motoring costs and not to make a profit, for this reason price per seat and number of seats offered have strict ceilings. Please note that all ABI motor insurers have agreed that if your passengers contribute towards your running costs your insurance cover will not be affected, as long as rides are given in a vehicle seating eight passengers or less.
BlaBlaCar's smart features make organising a car share quick, simple and safe:
★ Member Profiles: Every member has a verified social profile that allows you to check out your potential travel partner before contacting them to organise a car share (featuring picture, biography, ratings, and verified mobile number as well as a car description in the case of drivers).
★ Ratings: Members rate one another after every car share allowing them to build a trusted profile. This is how BlaBlaCar has created a reliable and trustworthy community with over 2.8 million community ratings left to date.
★ Price Calculator: BlaBlaCar automatically calculates a recommended price for every journey, ensuring that drivers do not receive contributions exceeding running costs, in accordance with legislation. The running costs used fully respect the Approved Mileage Payment Allowance, established by HM Revenue & Customs.

LINCOLN — Jordan Hooper made history. And then she got a heck of a lot of help from her friends.
The Husker forward surpassed 2,000 career points Thursday night with a 3-pointer in the second half. But the No. 18 Nebraska women's basketball team rallied from a 14-point deficit for a stirring 88-85 overtime win thanks to Rachel Theriot and Emily Cady, who each scored their jersey numbers in points — 33 and 23.
They turned what could have been a bittersweet night for Hooper — 17 missed shots — into a weary smile and lots of praise for her teammates.
"They were huge," Hooper said. "Rach with all her points and Em taking it to the basket, each and every time."
NU (13-3, 3-1 Big Ten) needed each and every point from Theriot and Cady to hold back Minnesota (12-6, 1-3), which got 33 points from All-Big Ten guard Rachel Banham, who hit six of the Gophers' 11 3-pointers. To start the second half, Minnesota hit five straight 3-pointers against Nebraska's zone to pad a 32-29 halftime lead to 53-39.
"They ran us ragged," Husker coach Connie Yori said.
She switched back to man defense and got a key break: Minnesota's two giant posts — Amanda Zahui B. and Micaella Riche — were both sitting with four fouls with just under 12 minutes left. Nebraska was able to pressure the perimeter shooters better than before.
"You take what you can get," Theriot said wryly. And the sophomore from Ohio did, repeatedly sweeping around screens for long and mid-range jumpers. The 33 points and nine assists were career highs, and Theriot made it look close to sublime.
She had no turnovers, missed just four shots and went 8 for 8 at the free-throw line. When covered, she tossed it in to Cady — who also had 13 rebounds — or flipped it out to Hooper or Brandi Jeffery, who made three second-half 3-pointers. NU tied the game at 73 with 2:31 left, completing the comeback.
"Number 33 just took over the game," UM coach Pam Borton said.
Said Yori of Theriot: "She's a heck of a lot more poised than the coach, I'll tell you that."
Banham matched Theriot's scoring performance — though it took 28 shots to do so. The junior hit a 3-pointer with 6.2 seconds left to tie the game at 78. Yori said she chose not to foul Banham out of concern that Riche or Zahui B. — by then back in the game — would get an offensive rebound on a missed free throw. Theriot missed a running 12-foot jumper at the end of regulation.
When the Huskers faced the same situation in overtime — up three points, clock winding down — Yori again did not foul. But this time, Yori said, Nebraska played the ball-screen for Banham better. Banham was swamped, so she pitched the ball to Kayla Hirt, who air-balled a 3-pointer with five seconds left.
A charge against Zahui B. — who played 22 minutes because of foul trouble — in overtime with 28 seconds left was another key play for Nebraska, Yori said. NU forward Hailie Sample, giving up five inches, fell emphatically to the floor when Zahui B. turned for a hook shot.
"It was a charge," Yori said. "That was a good call."
Borton disagreed.
"You leave the game in the players' hands," she said. "I felt like that was a tough call."
Toughness was a theme of the postgame press conference for Yori, who said her team easily could have folded in front of 4,922 at Pinnacle Bank Arena. She gave the crowd an assist for aiding the comeback. The arena rose to its feet when Hooper broke the 2,000-point mark, and cheered again during a timeout when the feat was announced over the public address system.
"Once I hit it and the fans cheered me on, that was cool," said Hooper, who finished with 18 points and 10 rebounds. "But I was tired."
Typical Hooper, Yori said.
"She couldn't ask for that kind of accolade to go to a better person," Yori said. "... She's just so humble. 'No big deal, 2,000 points.' That's 2,000 points!"

Russian Orthodox Church insists Paratroopers include inflatable churches in their arsenal.
I must admit this made me smile:
The Russian orthodox church insists on including mobile inflatable churches in paratroopers arsenal.
"Right now, such cathedrals are not part of our arsenal. But the church is pressing this issue. If the temples are included in our staff list, we could paradrop them from planes together with motorized cannons and armored vehicles," said thr Official spokesman of MVD press-service' department for paratroopers, Alexandr Kucherenko, to Interfax.
Goodness knows if this is true, but I loved the thought of it……

Enjoy the tuna starter! – Cool, romantic and Asian setting. The tuna tar-tare appetizer is so minuscule it's not even worth ordering, but has a cute presentation. I had the curry pork and it was pretty decent. The egg omelet appetizer is good as well.
Overall it's just way overpriced for the quality of food you receive, it's definitely more about the swanky atmosphere there.
Not what I expected. – We tried the winter restaurant week menu so most of the choices were not the same as from their regular menu.
For the appetizer, we ordered the pulled chicken (very good) and roasted eggplant and peppers (not so good).
For our entrees, we went with the coconut prawns (too salty) and the grilled hanger skirt steak. The steak's medium well was cooked more to medium. The dish wasn't bad. A complimentary bowl a rice was provided. We ordered an additional side of taro croquette with spicey sweet sauce. It was more sweet than spicey.
The desserts were the best--banana spring roll with melted honey ice cream and coconut creme caramel. The atmosphere is romantic and zen-like, come for that. The food is give-or-take.
Amazing! – The food at Kittichai was sublime. Some of the best food I have ever eaten. My wife had the vegetable stir fry and I had the pork tenderloin. We both ordered the Jasmine rice and Berry coolers. Literally, one bite in and we knew we were in foodie heaven. It was absolutely delicious. I usually go to great restaurants and enjoy the food but rarely do I absolutely love it. I did at Kittichai. The decor was fabulous, modern and serene. We went for lunch. Can't wait to go for dinner! As the rating says, run don't walk.
Fancy Elegant Thai Restaurant – I got a 30% off coupon online and I couldn't wait to share with a bunch of my ladies. Kittichai is a gorgeous restaurant with an indoor pond with floating lotus and candles! I think the atmosphere is so romantic and zen. Unfortunately, a pond equals some mosquitos. Thankfully I told the waitress and the restaurant offered to buy us a bottle of spray for us.
So let's talk about their food. We got some beef salad and fried popcorn shrimp to start and they were excellent. But I have to say everything here is pretty small and pricey. Then we each got our own entree. I ordered the curry short rib and it was very creamy and the meat just fell apart; it was that tender! Did I mention you have to order the rice here? They only gave you a tiny bit too.
The dessert was good. We got the chocolate cake and we all shared. I was pretty full by the end and thanks God I got a 30% off coupon. Otherwise, I would feel robbed.
Citysearch Editorial Review – Sleek, hip and exotic, Kittichai feels like a Thai resort in miniature, with candles floating around the pool that's the centerpiece of the dining room. The guests, like those of the Thompson Hotel above, are usually young, pretty and moneyed, and kick back with cocktails in the cabana-like booths before dinner. Said dinner will be Thai, sort of: Thai-spiced chocolate baby back ribs, fried rock shrimp with a palm sugar-tamarind sauce or banana spring rolls with burnt honey ice cream may not be native to Bangkok, but they shouldn't be missed.
Cool place, bad food – Went there for a friend's birthday a few days ago. The waitress asked if we're celebrating a birthday because she saw a wrapped gift and we said "yes" she said "ok". She didn't wish him a happy birthday nor did she put a candle on the desert. But that's not the problem. The problem was with the fish that we ordered. It was completely burned! We had to explain it to the waiter in detail that it was completely burned and the waiter was hesitant to take it back. After waiting another 20 min we were brought chicken, which was dry but eatable. The restaurant week special is a joke. We paired it with 3 glasses of wine and they brought out 1/5 of the glass all 3 times. The place is nicely decorated, but that's about it! It gets 2 stars for cool decorations and 1 star for food. I would not recommend!
I am very much convinced with Mischa2 opinion.
It is really a great place and recommend everyone
Watch what you're stepping in! – I was always a fan of Kittchai...great service, great people. great food....and then fast forward to tonight. I am moving to Chicago in 2 weeks and I chose Kittichai as the restaurant of choice for one of my farewell dinners. Well I arrived tonight anxiously awaiting the delicious food, when I made the mistake of going to the restroom before I even looked at the menu. Turns out the first toilet I went in was gross, so i had to go into the other stall and as I opened the door I stepped into a little surprise. YEP...there was human poo on the floor which I stepped right in. I was not aware that I would have had to watch my step upon entering stall #2. I was totally grossed out and had to wash my Gucci heals in the sink. So I head back to the table to tell my friends and the waiter and then I headed to the front of the restaurant to tell the waitress. They quickly closed and cleaned the bathroom. I ended up staying to eat only to not even be given a complementary meal. Not that I expected it, but after stepping in human poo in the bathroom I would have expected to be treated like a queen for an evening. Upon leaving, I confronted the hostess who stated they can not control what customers do in their restroom....however they can control how they treat their paying guests who unexpectedly step in human poo in their restroom. I not only thought this was in poor taste, but I will NEVER STEP FOOT(no pun intended) into their establishment again and I would hope everyone who reads this never does either!!!!!
Wonderful Experience – This is a dream restaurant. The waiters were attentive, the food was very good, and the atmosphere amazing. I will be going there again very soon.
cool vibe and excellent food&cocktails – I went to Kittichai last night for restaurant week and had a great experience from start to finish. I got a glass of rose wine, while I waited for my table. I wouldn't reccommend the rose, but I had lichee martinis once seated and they were off the charts delicious and strong. :) We started with mussels in chili lemongrass broth, really good, a tad too spicy for me but my date was loving the chilis and the mussels were fresh and plump. My appetizers was A-MA-ZING! I am still thinking about it. Tuna tartare, really nice presentation, they give you these little pastry cups with peanut inside and then tartare is separate and the chili coconot sauce is separate you put it together yourself and eat each one as a perfect bite. Hello! Party in my mouth, what an interesting and wonderful flavor combo. For entrees we had seafood boulebaisse, which was pretty small and nothing to really write home about, but the short ribs in green curry sauce was sooooooooooo awesome. Dessert was incredible too, banana spring rolls with burnt honey ice cream, is a must have, and the flourless chocolate cake with fresh cream was pretty good too. And the cool vibe of the place makes for a great night out. Very friendly service too. I would go back in a second. This is def one of my favs now.

"I really loved this card. The "glitter" one makes for a really pretty effect, and it's feminine without going over the top, depending on the color pallet of the picture you use. We got a lot of compliments on this card. Highly recommend."
"Depending on the picture you choose, you might have to try different text colors to make sure they show up. Also the space to write your address and party info is kind of limited. Other than that, this card is beautiful, just as advertised. It's girly but not overtly so. The quality is fantastic, nice thick cardstock, great resolution. Everyone loved it!"
"This invitation was just perfect for my daughter's 2nd birthday party! I liked that it had a little sparkle (note the glitter is a graphic not actual glitter but I knew that ahead of time) but it wasn't overly princess-y or flashy. I customized quite a bit of the text with the different fonts, using a script for her name which I think turned out really cute. The only thing I would recommend is making the "kindly respond" quite a bit bigger--it seems a little small to me on the invite and I even enlarged it some. Shipping was super fast and came almost 5 days early! This is my third purchase from tinyprints and I'll definitely be coming back."
"Excellent print quality on quality paper. I am thrilled. I was looking for a 1st birthday invite that was not too babyish, was not in pastel colors, and printed on both sides. The colors are vibrant, the style lends itself to any theme, and the double sided print allowed me to share more pictures. The order was process and shipped quickly and arrived earlier than promised. I will be ordering from Tiny Prints again."
"I just love this design! It was perfect for my daughter's 1st birthday invitation! Fast delivery to Australia and great quality! Would definitely recommend. Now I just have to think of another event to hold so I can get some more beautiful invitations made up! :)"

text: The town of Wink, N.M., doesn't appear on any official map, the moon as seen from its streets has a pinkish hue, and very odd things lurk beneath the charm of its old-fashioned façade. The exact nature of those lurking things, human and otherwise, is chronicled by Shirley Jackson Award winner Robert Jackson Bennett in his at times horrifying and yet strangely beautiful new novel "American Elsewhere." The book remains ambiguous about whether we're reading supernatural fiction, science fiction, or fantasy for a long time but then delivers mind-blowing answers.

The first person in North America to die from the rare H5N1 virus was a woman in her late 20s, the World Health Organization says.
The victim of the avian or bird flu died a week after returning from visiting family in China, according to Public Health Agency of Canada officials, who refused to release the patient's age, gender or hometown, other than saying she was not from Edmonton.
The woman was in her late 20s, a WHO spokeswoman confirmed Thursday afternoon.
The victim was suffering from "fever, malaise and headache" aboard two Dec. 27 flights from Beijing to Vancouver and Vancouver to Edmonton. She checked into hospital on New Year's Day, then died Jan. 3 in an intensive care unit in an Edmonton hospital. She had a severe inflammation of the brain and linings.
Based on an interview with a WHO medical officer, CTV News reported that the woman went to hospital on Dec. 28, only to be sent home the next day because she didn't have a cough.
Of the 649 confirmed cases of H5N1 worldwide in the past decade, the majority have been in Asia. There have been 385 deaths.
H5N1 differs from more common flu strains in severity of symptoms and its rarity of transmission.
