The Norman Transcript
NORMAN — The path to the celebration of Mother's Day is fraught with countless thorns, discomforts and lots of joy.
There is the pregnancy and the birth, neither of which is a pleasant experience in itself. If it were easy and pleasant, why aren't the men lining up to experience such fun as well? Sorry, guys, biological impossibility is not an acceptable excuse.
Following the fun birthing, come the baby, toddler and teenage years, also known as quicksand heaven. If a mother is going to make a mistake, the vigilant child and teen will catch it and remember forever, ready to hit playback at a moment's notice.
Some mothers make one feel warm and loved, while others are human beings moving through life with a cloud over, around and inside them.
As is the case with such "cloud covered" mothers, there are people who rarely recall the good works wrought by their mothers and prefer to clutch to their bosoms every perceived wrong and every mistake their mothers have ever committed. Could it be that the "cloud gene," which they obviously inherited, skipped the parent and is inherited from a grandparent?
A friend comes from a home where their core family plus the grandmother lived together in cloudy disharmony. She often talks about her mother and grandmother and their permanently dour dispositions, along with examples thereof.
The minute her father arrived home from work, the mother would start her litany of complaints and bad news, never allowing the poor man a moment's peace. One has to wonder how my friend managed to duck and avoid the moment when the "cloud gene" tried to leap from the older women and latch onto her. She is nothing like those women.
Along similar lines of behavior are women who may punish their misbehaving children, but when their husbands come home, they perform the "see how I suffer" dump and the children may receive punishment from the father as well. Are the children receiving just punishment or the brunt of the father's frustration with his wife?
The good news is children grow up and Mother's Day becomes a special occasion. It is filled with experiences we may not have expected but come Monday morning we willingly unburned to anyone willing to lend an ear.
Consider the wonderful experience of another friend. Her mother-in-law arrived for a prolonged visit at the home of the only daughter-in-law who still speaks to her. One would think gracious would be the operative word when it comes to the behavior of said mother-in-law, but you would be wrong. Try never satisfied and always complaining. How long before even this daughter-in-law refuses to have anything to do with the woman?
When I hear such sad stories of less than wonderful mother-in-laws, I count my blessings because Hubby's mother was loving, kind and did not butt into our business.
After we became engaged, Hubby took me home to meet his parents. Mom's first words to me were "If Jim loves you then we love you."
Whenever she was asked how many children she had, Mom would answer "Eight. Four are ours and the other four are ours as well by marriage."
My mother was an amazing lady. She was the heart and soul of our family. When she passed on to a better place, a piece of all our hearts was broken.
No matter where you fall in the spectrum of good to bad memories of your mother, the essential thing to remember is that contrary to popular belief and unrealistic expectations, mothers are human. No matter how much we may protest the incontrovertible truth, humans make mistakes. But we still love our mothers.

Greek Vegetable Gratin
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 2 medium onions, thinly sliced
- 1 large red bell pepper, thinly sliced
- 1/2 teaspoon salt, divided
- 1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper, divided
- 1 tablespoon minced garlic
- 1 ounce can (14-1/2 oz.) diced tomatoes in juice (do not drain)
- 2 pounds baking potatoes (4 medium)
- 1 pound carrots
- 2 large zucchini (1 lb.)
- 4 tablespoons freshly grated Parmesan cheese, divided
- 1/2 cup crumbled feta cheese, divided
- 3/4 cup vegetable broth
- 2 tablespoons chopped fresh dill
- Tossed green salad, optional
1. Heat oven to 375 degree F. Lightly grease a shallow 3-1/2- to 4-quart baking dish. For sauce, heat oil in a 12-inch skillet over medium-low heat. Add onions, bell pepper, 1/4 teaspoon of the salt and 1/4 teaspoon of the black pepper; cook 10 to 15 minutes or until vegetables soften and begin to brown. Add garlic; cook 1 minute, stirring. Add tomatoes and juice and bring to a boil; reduce heat and simmer 5 minutes more. Set aside.
2. Cut potatoes crosswise into 1/4-inch-thick slices. Thinly slice carrots on the diagonal. Cut zucchini lengthwise into 1/4-inch-thick slices. Arrange one third of the potato and carrot slices in the bottom of prepared dish. Sprinkle with 1 tablespoon of the Parmesan cheese. Arrange half of the zucchini slices over potatoes. Sprinkle with 1/8 teaspoon of the salt and 1/8 teaspoon of the black pepper. Spread one third of the sauce (1 cup) over zucchini. Sprinkle with 1/4 cup of the feta cheese. Repeat. Arrange remaining potatoes and carrots on top, spread with remaining sauce. Pour broth over vegetables, then sprinkle with remaining 2 tablespoons Parmesan.
3. Cover dish with greased foil. Bake 40 minutes. Uncover and bake 50 to 60 minutes more or until potatoes are tender and a small knife inserted in center of dish comes out easily. Let gratin stand 15 minutes before serving. Serve with tossed green salad, if desired. Makes 6 servings.

The Tribune-Star
For retailers across the country, Black Friday got under way well before the last Thanksgiving turkey gobbled.
Inside Kmart on U.S. 41 South, store manager Jimmy Snow said most of the door-busting deals had been snapped up long before Friday morning rolled around. This was the first year the store opened its doors at 8 p.m. Thursday night, and the result was a line of nearly 500 people reaching nearby Lowes.
"And they kept pouring in," he said later Friday afternoon, terming the early opening a huge success.
The longstanding tradition of opening the Christmas shopping season on the morning after Thanksgiving Day was knocked to the wayside this year as retailers lit up the holiday's evening. According to Associated Press reports, the Mall of America in Minneapolis had 30,000 people lined up for the facility's midnight opening, compared with 20,000 last year. About 11,000 shoppers were in lines wrapped around Macy's flagship store in New York City's Herald Square when it opened at midnight on Black Friday, up from an estimated 9,000 to 10,000 shoppers in 2011.
The early opening resulted in waves rather than steady streams. Inside Honey Creek Mall on Friday afternoon, employees of Blondie's Cookies enjoyed a brief lull after a frenzied morning. Manager Barbie Fox said the store sold more than 800 cookies and eight industrial containers of coffee between midnight and 4 a.m.
"From midnight to 4 a.m., it was just insane," she said, explaining mall traffic eased up a bit at that point, then resumed at later points throughout the day. But business remained brisk even around 2 p.m., and she said she'd already given out 30 trays of cookies as free samples by that point. More than 48 dozen more un-iced cookies were ready on the table nearby.
"And that's just the un-iced cookies. That's not everything," she said, remarking that cookies with sprinkles were the undisputed favorite for this year's Black Friday shoppers.
The Associated Press reported the stock market felt the surge before its 1 p.m. close. Technology stocks soared, lifting the Nasdaq composite index by more than 1 percent. Dell, chipmaker AMD and Hewlett-Packard were the top three gainers in the Standard & Poor's 500. Technology rose the most among the index's 10 industry groups. The Nasdaq ended up 40.30 points, or 1.4 percent, at 2,966.85. The Dow Jones industrial average gained 172.79, or 1.4 percent, to 13,009.69 — the first time since Election Day that the Dow closed above 13,000.
Big winners on the market included Dell, which rose 49 cents, or 5.4 percent, to $9.55, and HP, which added 50 cents, or 4.2 percent, to $12.44.
Inside Kmart's electronics department, sales associate Dylan Molenaar said entertainment seemed on the minds of shoppers eager to snap up 50-inch television sets for $288. Across the aisles in the toy department, Gary Bennett said shelves were already bare of some items.
"Any kind of Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle. We can't keep them in stock," he said, adding Disney's Doc McStuffins toys were also moving quickly.
At 2:51 p.m., the lone Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle figure left on the shelves was "Kraang," and the hooks hung empty where hundreds had already been taken.
A Rockville family shopping inside UniversiTEES in Honey Creek Mall said members of their group had been at it in shifts. Diane and Andrea Fischer joined Stephanie and Ashley Gordon in the holiday tradition of seeking Christmas presents, and Andrea noted she'd been in line at Best Buy beginning at 8 p.m. Thursday.
"I know what I want when I go in," she said of her shopping strategy.
Diane said she was picking up Christmas presents and scouting deals that afternoon. "It's fun. I enjoy it," she said.

POTSDAM - Potsdam Village Police say they are investigating a report of a knife incident Wednesday night involving several Clarkson University students.
Police said they didnt receive a report about the altercation until mid-morning Thursday. Police said the report they received indicated one student menaced several others with a knife and then slashed one student in the hand before he was disarmed.
The police department will be following up with university officials as to the nature of this incident and why it was not immediately reported to the police department by Campus Safety and Security, Potsdam Village Police officials said in their public record released Friday morning.

TERRY (WLBT) - Four Hinds County schools have teamed together to help a single student. Because of them, Junior Dylan Montgomery's dream will come true!
Thursday morning, the Make-A-Wish Foundation presented a check to Montgomery worth more than $17,500. He was diagnosed with Non-Hodgkins Lymphoma two years ago.
Dylan's family came out for the presentation at Terry High School. Gary Road Elementary and Intermediate Schools and Byram Middle School also took part in the fundraising.
Dylan's wish will take him to California.
"To go to the Electronics & Entertainment Expo in Los Angeles this summer. I've always loved video games, and (designing video game software) is what I want to do when I grow up."
Dylan's wish will cost $8,000. The rest of the money raised will go toward granting the wish of Tylertown High School student Brandon Hommel.

The members of the Whitfield County Board of Commissioners took the first steps in putting together their 2014 budget on Thursday with an all-day meeting at the trade center.
Commissioners met with department heads and other officials to discuss the status of their departments and their needs for 2014 and the near future.
Officials with Whitfield County 911 noted that the system's computers were installed at the end of 2007 and they are now past their expected five-year life.
"We are getting to the point where we are having to replace more things than we can keep up with," said Emergency Management Director Claude Craig.
Craig told commissioners that in addition to replacing aging equipment the county needs to prepare for the so-called Next Generation 911, an effort by the United States and Canada to allow the public to transmit text, photographs, video and other data to 911 centers when they report an emergency. Craig said standards for Next Generation haven't been fully developed but they could come within the next few years.
Craig told commissioners he has looked at emergency warning sirens. He said they do offer the ability to warn people of severe weather when they are outside. But he said they also have several downsides. People in vehicles or inside buildings may not hear them, and he said they are costly to install and maintain. He said it could cost $6 million just to install a warning siren system in Whitfield County.
He said he recommends they continue to push the county's CodeRed reverse 911 system to warn people of severe weather and other emergencies and to continue efforts to get people to use severe weather radios. Craig said he is looking at grants that could help county residents who are deaf or blind get special severe weather radios they can use.
CodeRed provides two services for the county. First, it allows county officials to issue telephone emergency notifications to residents, such as alerting them to chemical spills and other emergencies. Those alerts can be targeted to specific parts of the county and can be tailored to give residents instructions on how they should react.
CodeRed also alerts residents to severe weather warnings from the National Weather Service. Residents have to sign up for this service. To sign up, just go to the Whitfield County website (www.whitfieldcountyga.com) and click on the CodeRed logo.

Strange sIFR / screen-reader bug
I was writing a little accessibility article for .net magazine about text-replacement techniques, including sIFR. I was blithely saying that "yea, don't worry, it's fine" with a couple of caveats. But, rather than rely on memory I did a quick test, and discovered something strange.

Colour Contrast Visualiser – New Tool
A friend & colleague of mine has just released the beta version of a new tool. Although everyone (who cares) has probably heard of colour contrast analysers, this does the opposite, and helps you choose accessible colour combinations.

CMS editable Flash
With all the fuss over AJAX and Flash accessibility you get, I thought it might be worth outlining the process we used to create a Flash/AJAX widget and highlight one of the advantages you get with this method. It also means that the use of Flash has no impact on your Search Engine Optimisation.
Note on Non-HTML formats
In my previous article on responsibilities in accessibility you might have noticed that I'd fallen into the traditional accessibility trap of only really referring to (X)HTML/CSS sites and guidelines. I'm quite aware of other technologies, but it's worth looking at why other formats are harder to make accessible.

Location Description and History
"The Swamper" had his own special bedroom
which was located in the dark basement of the Grand Hotel. This was his
own special and private haven where he could enjoy peace and solitude
away from the hustle and bustle of the hotel's many guests. Within his
private domain where no guests were invited, he also kept secret his passion
for silver.
Movement of objects, including glasses on the bar and mannequins on the false balcony.
Unexplainable noises, including the sounds of footsteps in the basement and in the saloon after closing.
Unusual areas of extreme cold and gusts of cold air.
Disembodied voices, especially in the basement.
Female staff have been pushed on the lower section of the back stairs that lead to the basement.
We arrived at the saloon at 9:30pm. We were met
by "Whiskers" and he proceeded to take us down to the basement
area. We arranged this before hand as we felt that conducting a investigation
upstairs during business hours would be too disruptive to the bar's patrons.
The ghost (the Swamper) which haunts this building supposedly resides
down in the basement which made it a good place to start anyway.
The Swamper's room is sealed by a barred door,
for safety reasons, so we started taking readings with the EMF detector
as best as possible by sticking the EMF through the bars and into the
room. We immediately began receiving some interesting results. There was
a suspect reading emitting from the room.
We turned off the lights and checked the area using
a IR video camera. The results were negative. We returned upstairs for
a break and to give the suspected targets a rest. For control purposes
we gave it a hour before we would go back into the basement. If the readings
had moved or changed in frequency, we might have actual phenomena. Otherwise,
it might be interference from some sort of man made electrical source.
During this break we met Marcie who runs the gift shop and the Longhorn
cafe attached to the saloon.
We returned to the basement around 10:30pm, accompanied by Marcie and proceeded to check up on the two targets which we had discovered earlier. Target 1 was still present, but Target 2 had vanished. We requested to be let into the Swamper's room and Marcie removed the screws from the barred door and gave us access.

Editor's note: Devon Henry is this year's winner of the Bruce Catton Historal Award. The essay contest is held annually in honor of Catton, a one-time resident of Benzie County. Catton won a Pulitzer Prize for "A Stillness at Appomattox"; his book "Waiting for the Morning Train" is about growing up in Benzonia.
Just as Bruce Catton did, I sat in the cold, poorly lit basement of the Mills Community House. My head was down as my sporadic sobs and cries overpowered most of the noise in the room. Most of my family members were sitting beside me, feeling the same as I did.
The monotonous voice of the minister was lost in the background of my mind. So many things were being said; there were so many memories. He spoke great things of her as though he knew her, as if she was next to him, telling him her life story.
I felt trapped in the prison that was my thoughts. The feeling a younger child gets when he knows he no longer can see or feel the love of someone he has loved so dearly is incredibly overwhelming.
The pastor explained to me and my family how love is never lost. After what seemed like a time so far away, only these words stick in my mind from that day: Love is NEVER lost. Although I was inspired by his message, all I could think about was the beauty that had been taken from me — my mother — as I saw everyone mourning around me.
Her memorial was in the basement of the Mills Community House. At any time before this day, this building was of no significance to me. It was just a building sitting by the park that I so often went to play hockey and ice skate with my old friend, and to meet new people as I played. This seemed like such a weird place to memorialize my deserving mother.
She had passed in her nightly slumber. Drugs racing through her body shut her system down as though she had nothing left to fuel her. The heartless men she was with disgracefully laid her broken body in a field to be burned and desecrated.
Her passing left my life seemingly over. It made me think profusely about what happens when one dies, what happens to his or her loved ones? There were so many thoughts, so many life-changing events in this building that was so unknown to me.
From this day on, I grew in this wonderful county called Benzie, experiencing things I never have experienced before, like the beaches, courtesies one does not receive in city settings, and acceptance from random citizens. I also had some bad times: divorce, fighting between loved ones with scandal and corruption — but in all this there still was time for love.
Knowing that almost anyone in this town would help me set my heart on fire made me want to give back something to the community along with benefiting myself as needed, and provided me a kind of therapy.
I needed some hobby to keep me away from feeling anger toward people I had not gotten along with, mostly the men who unrightfully placed my mother in such horribly bad conditions.
A turning point came in my life.
My birthday was coming and, as always, there was the wish that my deceased family members would knock on my door with a giant hug waiting just for me. Knowing that this never would happen killed me inside. Holidays became hell to me. For my birthday, my grandfather took me to a downtown Frankfort music shop called Miranda Music. This became my main place of study. He bought me a guitar, of course with the official "parent" warning: "If I buy this for you, you better use it ... and you better get to doing some dishes." Being the spoiled kid who I was, I laughed at his unserious face.
At first this instrument was something to do and was fun, but then it became an addiction. There was so much to learn, but I was allowed to work at this shop and, unusual for a teenager, I wasn't worried about money. In fact, I didn't make much money at all, but the chance to be around all these smiling, delightful musicians from almost everywhere was amazing. I felt that I learned so much every day, not only music but life skills; I began to love people again.
Every time I pass the Mills House, I think of that day and the things I wish could happen but never can. I want my mother to be proud. I want to sit with her and sing, dance, laugh, love once again. I want to show her my talents, my personality.
Through all of this, I feel a connection, not really personally but more historically. It's so interesting to me how, over time, this building was used by so many great people for so many different reasons. Maybe someday I can be great and show off the incredible roots this community has sprouted. I want to be like Bruce Catton. I could not tell you his personality, but I could tell you he made a difference in the community and even the whole country, perhaps the world.
Recently, I have been informed that I may get a chance to play a musical show at the Mills Community House. It's exciting, almost as if I will get to officially start anew in the same place where everything ended.
Devon Henry is a junior at Frankfort High School.

Some of the best and worst aspects of living in Wall were on display last Wednesday evening at the August public meeting of the township committee. The best was easy to spot. The girls' high school softball team was congratulated for a fantastic season, continuing to conduct themselves as fine examples of student athletes, something which is a credit to our community. Those attending the meeting were also given the chance to see the township swear in our newest police officer, a tremendous occasion for the young man and something which happily benefits our collective safety and well-being.
The rest of the evening unfortunately did not continue on such a cheery note. No, instead those of us who decided to give up our Wednesday evening to actively participate in our local government were treated to a demonstration of arrogance and in what my opinion seemed almost willful neglect of responsibility.
Why did it take 20 minutes to state that the Wall Fair had once again lost money this year? I'm not sure, but the committee seemed happy enough with their explanation that at least we lost less money than last year. Why must it come to the point of having to file lawsuits for the committee to even acknowledge their mistakes? I will retract this statement though, as they did not actually admit to the mistakes they made. However, the fact still remains that the township had improperly contracted an insurance firm which was paid with our residents' taxes for years. Even more ridiculous, something as simple as appointing a secretary for the township's insurance fund commission has required a spotlight and a legal shove to motivate even grudging action.
Perhaps the most disturbing part of the evening came during the public comment portion of the meeting. We were forced to hear a current committeeman shuffle blame onto any and everyone else to avoid admitting that he and they (his fellow committee people) are responsible for consistently raising taxes in the township. We were also provided with the distinct displeasure of hearing a member of this esteemed body directly attack and belittle one of our fellow residents because her questions irritated him.
What was the lesson to be learned from this meeting? What was the most important takeaway? Simply put, the committee needs to reform how it operates at the most basic level. Government exists solely to serve the community. It is created to represent our voices and can only do it properly when it is both open and responsive to its citizens. As it currently stands, our committee is not living up to either of those most basic of expectations. It needs to change.

"Most durable shell case available"
|Should I Buy?
"Minimalistic style, optimal protection for everyday use"
The Incipio DRX Soft Shell for the BlackBerry Bold 9930 and 9900 is made for those who want some protection while not affecting the thickness of the device and functionality. Incipio has always kept their products simple, and sometimes simple is what works best. Made of a hard shell polycarbonate core and Incipio's groundbreaking semi-rigid outer frame, this case can truly take a beating and keep coming back for more.
I enjoy taking a step back every now and then from the rugged case world and switching to something a little more modern. The Incipio DRX Soft Shell feels like it belongs on the device from the get go. It literally hugs the device so tight that there is no sloppiness on the edges, yet is easy to take off for docking in the BlackBerry charging pod within seconds. Surely the design of this case was for those on the go, -- toss it in a pocket, bag and forget about it. For those who like a little style in their case, you can now choose from two other color choices besides the standard black.
The back of the case is set with a glossy finish in the center and wrapped in a soft touch texture which adds grip on the edges. The camera and flash are exposed and do risk damage since most people place their device on a surface face up.
The right side of the case fully covers all the buttons. They function with a nice soft touch as if the case was not even there.
The left side provides easy access to your 3.5 headset jack and microUSB port. The port openings are recessed slightly, but one thing to notice is that the USB port is cut out wide enough to accept the plug dimensions to ensure a solid connection.
The front of the device is nicely wrapped in the black frame shell, giving your device exceptional protection.

Easy to apply and remove (given the dimensions of the case) you can still use a holster. The case does not feel slippery in the hand like other hard shell cases. Reasonable price for a shell case.
The glossy back of the case does show wear easily, but I would rather a flat finish. While taking the case off numerous times, it will start to leave marks in the bezel finish on the device.
Three Great Cases Like This One
|BlackBerry Hard Shell
"The hard shell fits a bit better but it's not as stylish."
|BlackBerry Leather Holster
"Is a skin-case not your thing? Go holster!"
|BlackBerry Soft Shell
"It comes in a bunch of colors and is a great alternative."
Abrante Feb 2, 2012 at 3:02 pm
I use my 9900 raw, but this case looks nice.

Is this a contest? If so, please enter me :)
asianguy80 Feb 2, 2012 at 4:04 pm
I may just give this a shot versus the current BB Hard Shell case that I use now.
bcbbanga4l Feb 2, 2012 at 8:41 pm
does it fit in the main holster that came with the phone?
Abrante Feb 2, 2012 at 10:22 pm
I doubt it.
RoyAlejandro Feb 2, 2012 at 10:50 pm
would get it if shipment is available to Singapore. saw a few stuffs i would love to have but the shop crackberry doesnt ship over here. ):
donnation Feb 4, 2012 at 11:21 am
This case is garbage. I own one and the fit is terrible. It is crooked on one side no matter how many times you try and make it fit. One side hides the chrome bezel while the other side shows it (crookedly to boot). There are better cases on the market and my advice would be to stay away from this one.

looks like a really cool case

No, really. It has to fit, guys, or it doesn't work.

My daughters and I really enjoyed this recipe. I did not have honey mustard so I used one tablespoon of mustard and one tablespoon of honey. I also used fresh minced garlic instead of the powder. Very easy and very yummy!
I made this on a whim as I needed a quick and yummy salmon recipe. My daughter proclaimed "I don't like Salmon!", but I made it anyway and I knew I had a winner when part-way through dinner she looks at me and says "This is to Salmon what In-N-Out is to burgers". And if you live in the western states of the US and have been to In-N-Out, you know that is a HECKUVA big compliment! I actually had three halves of salmon and I doubled the recipe...it was perfect!
This recipe surprised me...it was very good. I follewed the recipe as written and definitely enjoyed the dish. Thanks!

Good, Cheap Beater Cars & Inexpensive Commuter Cars - how to find one?
oldfarmer50 Posts: 6,232The private party seller is my favorite place to buy beaters. If you're careful you can find a basically sound vehicle that has acquired too many cosmetic and minor mechanical defects for the owner to put up with any more. Most of them can be fixed cheap or ignored (who needs AC on a winter beater).
Last year I picked up a 1988 GMC van from a neighbor for 900 bucks. It's not pretty but it has only has 120K miles and an engine with only 25K on it. I use it to haul stuff on the farm. The tomatoes don't care how it looks.
Another place to find beaters is you local indie garage. Some times these places buy a few cars at auctions or from customers, fix them up and sell them as a sideline. I recently picked up a 1993 Caddy Deville with 80K miles at my local garage. Only paid $1200. I'm hoping to get at least 40K miles out of each of them before they start costing me too much.

Coker, Mills, Daugherty highlight Times' All-Etowah County team
Sat. February 01, 2014 at 9:23 p.m. | By Nick Johnston Sports Writer
Southside's Dantley Coker was named The Gadsden Times' All-Etowah County Offensive MVP. (Photo by Nick Johnston | Gadsden Times | File)
After a record-setting season, it's only fitting the Southside Panthers lead The Gadsden Times' All-Etowah County football team for 2013.
A total of nine Panthers landed first-team honors, led by fullback Dantley Coker. The senior was named The Times' Offensive MVP after rushing for 2,541 yards and 22 touchdowns, leading Southside to a school-record 13 wins and a spot in the Class 5A state semifinals.
It's the latest in a long list of accolades for Coker, who was selected to the Alabama Sports Writers Association All-State team and was a finalist for the 5A Back of the Year. He also earned a spot on the Super 12, which goes to the top dozen players in the state regardless of classification.
His coach, Ron Daugherty, was named The Times' Coach of the Year, which comes on the heels of being selected as the 5A State Coach of the Year by the ASWA. It's deserving honors for Daugherty, who was thrust into the head coaching spotlight just eight days before the season began when former coach Marty Smith abruptly resigned.
Joining Coker as Panthers to earn first-team honors were offensive linemen Tyler Carr and Baylon Stokes, kicker Carter West, defensive lineman Hunter Sparks, linebackers Colton Clay and Hunter Armstrong, defensive back Holt Keeling and athlete Blake Devine.
Earning The Times' Defensive MVP honor was Coosa Christian's Ben Mills. The junior defensive lineman had a season for the ages, registering 179 tackles with 33 stops for a loss, seven sacks, seven forced fumbles and a safety. He rarely came off the field, as he led the team in rushing with 1,264 yards and 14 touchdowns. Mills was a 1A All-State selection and a finalist for the ASWA 1A Lineman of the Year.
The Times' All-Etowah County quarterback was Sardis' Will Scott. The senior preseason Dirty Dozen member completed 117 of 209 passes for 1,771 yards and 21 touchdowns.
Joining Coker in the backfield was Glencoe's Thomas Ozmint. The junior was a 3A All-State honorable mention after rushing for 1,528 yards and 14 touchdowns in 2013.
At wide receiver were Sardis' Brett Rains, Westbrook Christian's Noah Hunt and Etowah's Lamar Thomas. Rains led Northeast Alabama with 60 catches for 1,122 yards and 11 touchdowns his senior season. Hunt had 28 catches for 664 yards and eight touchdowns, while speedster Thomas caught 35 passes for 627 yards and six scores.
On the offensive line, Southside's Carr and Stokes were joined by Sardis' Blaine Pruitt, Glencoe's Tyler Johnson and Gaston's Tyler Pankey.
Carr earned a spot on the 5A All-State team for the second straight season and is regarded as one of the state's top linemen. He holds offers from Alabama, Auburn, Georgia and Vanderbilt. He and Stokes helped pave the way for one of the top rushing attacks in the state of Alabama.
Pruitt graded in the 90s all season and was a 4A All-State selection, while Johnson — known as "Big Country" — was a 3A All-State honorable mention. Pankey was the main force on Gaston's offensive front, and he earned an All-County selection from the coaches.
West, the first-team kicker, made all 55 of his PATs and made 6 of 11 field goals with a long of 38. He was an honorable mention on the 5A All-State team.
Southside's Sparks, Coosa's Mills, Gadsden City's Chris McElderry and Etowah's Coby Bryant earned the first-team spots across the defensive line.
Sparks had 72 tackles and 11 sacks on his way to being named an honorable mention on the 5A All-State team. McElderry's big season — 67 tackles, 10 stops for a loss and five sacks — led to a 6A All-State first-team selection. Bryant was a 5A All-State selection after recording 90 stops, 24 tackles for a loss, 11 sacks and 15 quarterback hurries.
Southside's Armstrong and Clay led a star-studded linebacker corps on The Times' All-Etowah County team that included Glencoe's Mason Brown and Gadsden City's Blair Edwards.
Armstrong made 140 tackles with four sacks and an interception, while Clay made 84 tackles and registered nine sacks. Armstrong was a 5A All-State honorable mention.
Brown made 163 tackles, 21 stops for a loss, six sacks and forced a fumble in his junior season and earned a 3A All-State first-team nod.
Edwards led Gadsden City with 88 tackles to go along with two interceptions and three sacks.
Southside's Keeling, Glencoe's Pace Ozmint and Houston Word and Gadsden City's Tray Dudley were first teamers at defensive back.
Keeling anchored the Panthers' pass defense in 2013, making 55 tackles and intercepting four passes.
Ozmint was a 3A All-State first-team selection after a sophomore season in which he made 92 tackles, four interceptions — one returned for a score — three pass break-ups and a punt return for a touchdown. He also led Glencoe in receiving. Word had 96 tackles, five stops for a loss, two sacks, one pick and four pass breakups.
Dudley was a shutdown corner for the Titans who is preparing to play at the next level.
The Times' All-Etowah County punter was Westbrook Christian's Tyler Lowery, who averaged 40.9 yards per punt on 38 tries.
Southside's Devine and Glencoe's Dylan Stone earned first-team honors as athletes.
Devine was a stat-machine, racking up 957 rushing yards and scoring 19 touchdowns either as a running back, wide receiver or kick returner. He also had two interceptions and was named to the 5A All-State team as an athlete.
Stone, who was selected to the 3A All-State team, had a breakout year at quarterback for the Yellow Jackets. After rarely playing as a sophomore, Stone racked up more than 2,600 yards through the air and on the ground combined to go along with 35 touchdowns.
Glencoe, with six players garnering first-team honors, followed Southside's nine on the All-Etowah County team. Gadsden City and Sardis each had three players selected, Westbrook and Etowah had two, while Coosa Christian and Gaston had one apiece.
Earning honorable mentions at quarterback were Westbrook Christian's Wil Appleton, Coosa Christian's Johnny Grizzard and Etowah's Kordell Rudolph.
Running back honorable mentions were Gaston's Jailyn Britton, Gadsden City's Dante Rudolph, Hokes Bluff's Chase Beggs, Etowah's Paul Ruiz and Southside's Aleric Williams.
Hokes Bluff's Phillip Ward, Southside's Austin Abernathy (TE), Glencoe's Andrew Willis, and Gadsden City's Terrell Malone and Deveunte Blount were honorable mentions at wide receiver.
On the offensive line, honorable mentions went to Coosa Christian's Mickey Green, Westbrook Christian's Blaze Johnson, Glencoe's Garrett Pentocost and Sardis' Cole Wilson.
The honorable mention kickers were Glencoe's Joseph Bright and Etowah's Jose Mandragon.
Getting honorable mentions on the defensive line were Gaston's Lee Corey and Javonte Pope, Southside's Saige Dale, Etowah's Zack Gamblin and Hokes Bluff's Logan Latronico.
Linebacker honorable mentions were Hokes Bluff's Chase Pope and Noah Click, Gadsden City's T.J. Posey, Southside's Chance Usry, Gaston's Mitchell Smith, Westbrook Christian's Dalvin Lewis and Glencoe's Taylor Daugherty.
Coosa Christian's Caleb Sanderson, Hokes Bluff's Dylan Drake, Sardis' Jesse Hubbard and Gadsden City's Matthew Posey were honorable mentions at defensive back.
An honorable mention also went to Gadsden City's David Webb at punter.
The honorable mentions at athlete were Gaston's Shai Ogles and Braxton Collins, Gadsden City's Ahmed DeRamus, Sardis' Keenan Lewis and West End's Chase Blanton.

Roger & Anne in the Community
By James Purlee & Robert Sparks '56
Few people may know it, but Roger Taylor is the third president in Knox's history to come from a farm background. Anne also grew up on a dairy farm in rural New Jersey. Many of us associate Roger and Anne with their time in that big city up North, but their farm backgrounds are important to their lives today.
Roger and Anne are two of the most down-to-earth people you'll meet. If you think about all that they've done in their lives, you'd think that they'd have a right to boast a bit, but they don't. Their service to Knox is not about personal gain -- it's about the College's mission. Their ability to put Knox's needs and priorities in front of their own comes straight from their farming backgrounds. On a farm, you put your own needs aside and help your family and friends in any way that you can. That's the mentality that Roger and Anne bring to Knox.
They bring this same attitude to the Galesburg community. Roger and Anne have served in more than 20 separate community organizations, from the Galesburg Regional Economic Development Association, to Rotary Club, to local arts organizations. Both have been named the Paul Harris Fellow by their respective Galesburg Rotary Clubs in recognition of their service.
We're all good friends, and we help each other in the projects that are important to us. Knox happens to be Roger's and Anne's big project, and we help them in any way we can.
James Purlee, owner of Purlee Farms in Knox County, Illinois, and Robert Sparks '56, retired president of Galesburg's United Federal Savings Bank, are both personal friends of the Taylors and serve as Knox College trustees.
Roger and Anne have volunteered for, served on the boards of, and worked with numerous Galesburg community organizations.
Below are just a few of the organizations they served:
Business District Development & Redevelopment Commissiom * Economic Development Network * Education Technology Center Board * Gale Scholars Steering Committee * Galesburg Bicentennial Commission * Galesburg Regional Economic Development Association * Leadership Greater Galesburg * Nova Singers * OSF St. Mary's Medical Center Advisory Board * Noon & Sunrise Rotary Clubs * United Way * Carl Sandburg College Legal Assistant Program Advisory Board * Hard Knox Study Club II * PEO * Hawthorne Study Club * Mosaic Club * Delta Delta Delta Alumni Association.

NBC 7's ConsumerBob looks at the changes of recycling and how it could change how much money you get back from collecting those bottles and cans.
For those San Diegans who collect cans and bottles in order to turn them in for recycling fees, there is a change in the works.
There are some new rules that could change the way people recycle.
Not all containers are the same when it comes to aluminum, plastic and glass and there's a new law that makes that very clear.
Some come with deposits ranging anywhere from 5 to 10 cents for the California Redemption Value or CRV.
The state of California will not allow the non-CRV containers to go with the CRV items.
"So you have to bring 100-percent CRV containers that are not broken and also properly labeled," said San Diego Recycling Manager Ken Prue.
Shoppers pay a deposit or CRV at the cash register when we buy certain items. But not all glass, aluminum and plastic come with a deposit and shouldn't pay back a refund.
That could mean more work for some people who have to separate their items but it means the state won't have to pay money for things that never had a deposit in the first place.
There could be some collectors that do take CRV and non-CRV, say from a bar or something, that they may be discouraged," said Prue. "But honestly, I think for the most part, for the average resident, I don't think they'll see a difference at all."
Wine bottles are probably the most common item that's not CRV in glass.
For those who use curbside recycling, the new rules don't change anything, Prue said.
Residents don't currently get money back from the items put out in the blue bins at the curb.
Prue said only about 23 percent of San Diego homes and small businesses are good about recycling.

Imagine if you're a hunter out in the woods doing one of the things you like best. You're communing with nature on a brisk but pleasant afternoon, awaiting with great anticipation the appearance of that coveted prize.
Suddenly, it ambles into view ... into range. Your senses all snap to attention, as you size up the prey and slowly, carefully, quietly raise your weapon into place and shoot.
Then, imagine the desperate despondency you'd feel as you realized the deer you'd just shot was instead another hunter. From the mountain top to the deepest valley of emotion in the time it takes for that round to exit your rifle barrel and enter the human shoulder.
That was what happened in Orange County recently, but it's hardly a new story. It's a tragically old story with a new set of characters. And we can't help but wonder why hunters don't take every step possible to avoid that horrible conclusion.
We've often wondered why anyone would go out into the woods during deer-hunting season dressed to look like a tree — or another deer. Why wouldn't any sensible hunter want to take every precaution and not look like another deer? Why don't they all wear hunter orange when in the woods?
This particular shooting occurred around 5 p.m. — dusk, this time of year, when silhouettes are hardest to define.
We would speculate that some hunters — especially the macho, overconfident ones — believe it could never happen to them. They are far too skilled, far too acute to have such misfortune or such a lapse in judgment befall them.
Or perhaps they discount science, which says deer don't recognize the orange color. Some hunters may still insist on their own intuition, which says that if orange sticks out like a sore thumb to me, it must to the deer. Those hunters don't want a perceived disadvantage in this lethal game in the woods, and they don't want to acknowledge any weakness.

This Article examines the operation and effects of three provisions that are commonly found in infrastructure contracts: (1) compensation events; (2) noncompetition provisions; and (3) the contractor's right to object to and receive compensation for legislative, administrative, and judicial decisions. The operation of these provisions gives private contractors power over decisions that affect the public interest and are normally made by public officials and subject to oversight, disclosure, and accountability — none of which apply to private contractors. The existence and operation of these provisions have gone virtually unexamined and undiscussed. Rather, discussions about infrastructure privatization have been narrowly focused on tolls, reflexive pro- or anti- private or public provisions, and spending or investment decisions on up-front payments.

Renewable energy could power almost all of a power grid by 2030 at about what electricity costs today, according to academics in Delaware. Think it is too good to be true? Read on.
"The key is to get the right combination of electricity sources and storage—which we did by an exhaustive search—and to calculate costs correctly," said Willett Kempton, a professor at the University of Delaware and coauthor of a report scheduled in the March 1, 2013, issue of Journal of Power Sciences.
Most research to date has been unable to generate alternative energy at competitive market prices. It has had problems with reliability of generation; what happens if the sun is blocked for days? There have also been storage issues. However, the U.S. government placed stricter environmental regulations on coal and oil burning plants and energy created from waste, making its production and use more expensive. That is expected to rise in the future.
To date, researchers have sought measured cost effectiveness by matching generation to energy usage. The model the Delaware team used in its four-year study focused on data for the PJM Interconnection, which powers about 20 percent of the United States.
Generating more electricity than needed during average hours would be cheaper than storing excess power for later high demand, researchers found. This would meet the need on high demand, but low-wind hours.
Storage is expensive because the batteries or hydrogen tanks holding the excess energy need to larger for each additional hour stored.
"For example, using hydrogen for storage, we can run an electric system that today would meet a need of 72 gigawatt (GW), 99.9 percent of the time, using 17 GW of solar, 68 GW of offshore wind, and 115 GW of inland wind," said coauthor Cory Budischak, instructor in the Energy Management Department at Delaware Technical Community College.
The study recommends keeping fossil fuels on hands as a backup to the alternative combination.
Although this is only one study, it raises some important questions about renewable energy in the United States. Given the federal budget, should Washington invest in creating more renewable work? Given the environment, can Washington afford not to?

Gas prices in the Bay Area and across the state continued to fall in December, with every metro area in Northern California registering a decrease at the pump since last month, an American Automobile Association spokeswoman said.
According to the AAA, California's average price for a gallon of regular unleaded gasoline was $3.62, down 23 cents since mid-November.
The average Bay Area price was $3.71, down 27 cents over the same time period, according to the AAA.
"Prices at the pump have steadily declined across the country as demand continues to be low and supplies remain robust," AAA Northern California spokeswoman Cynthia Harris said.
"The exception is the East Coast where supplies are increasing but remain somewhat tight following the disruption in distribution from Hurricane Sandy," Harris said.
Overall demand was expected to remain low into 2013, she said.
The highest-priced gas in the Bay Area was in San Francisco, where motorists paid an average $3.83 per gallon, according to the AAA. The lowest was in Vallejo, where a gallon averaged $3.49.

WEST ST. PAUL, MN -- It's been an interesting few days for those tracking political controversy. First, there was Vice President Joe Biden's warning to Virginia rally-goers that presidential hopeful Mitt Romney and running mate Paul Ryan will "put y'all back in chains." Then, there was Republican Senate nominee Todd Akin's reference to "legitimate rape."
Now, Northern Dakota County has a controversial politician of its own: a 42-year-old West St. Paul city councilman known for his conservative views has been charged with misconduct of a public officer and disorderly conduct after police say he repeatedly interferred with the sale of a property adjacent to his own.
According to a Dakota County criminal complaint dated Aug. 17, Edward Everett Hansen was the lone dissenting vote on the city council back in January 2011 when its economic development authority decided to build a home on the property and share the profits between the City and the private developer.
The complaint states that West St. Paul police were contacted by a listing agent on June 11 after Hansen allegedly entered the home on the property, unannounced and uninvited, during a showing.
After questioning the the potential buyer's plans for the property, and finding that the buyer intended to use the home as a rental, Hansen allegedly became "irate," telling the potential buyer that he was a city councilman for West Saint Paul and that he would "make sure" the buyer would "never get a rental permit."
Hansen then reportedly tried to cut off the entrance to the property with his vehicle.
During the course of the investigation, West St. Paul police learned that another agent was planning to show the property to a second potential buyer July 1, but that when they arrived, a vehicle was again blocking the entrance and a machine with an electronic voice kept repeating "You're Trespassing" when they approached the home.
In November 2011, Hansen allegedly approached the general contractor who was building the home on the site and began yelling at him to stop construction.
The contractor told police that Hansen was "ranting and raving," and that most of his statements began with some variation of the f-word.
If convicted of the most serious charge against him—misconduct of a public officer—Hansen could face up to a year in jail and a $3,000 fine.
This is not the first time that Hansen—owner of a Rocco's Pizza in Little Canada—has been embroiled in controversy.
Hansen flew a Confederate flag from the back deck of his home from February to June—removing it only after the president of Rocco's, Jim Bauer, essentially ordered him to do so. He allegedlly said at the time the "Stars and Bars" flag was a statement about his opposition to government taxes and regulation.

A fire in Grant Town early Wednesday morning destroyed a home in what firefighters are calling a "total loss."
According to Marion County dispatch logs, the fire was reported around 3 a.m. Wednesday.
Grant Town Volunteer Fire Department Chief John Riley said crews arrived on scene shortly following, with emergency medical services reaching the house by 3:10 a.m.
Conditions at the scene were a "fully involved structure fire," Riley said.
He said it took quite some time to knock down the flames, and the fire department was cleared hours later, at 7:30 a.m.

New York-based JetBlue Airways and South African Airways (SAA) have expanded their codeshare agreement to include flights between Washington DC and Dakar, Senegal—a move that enables SAA to sell tickets to American government workers and contractors under terms of the Fly America Act.
The move comes roughly six months after JetBlue began placing its B6 code on SAA flights between two US gateways—New York and Washington—and several African cities including Johannesburg, Cape Town, Durban, East London and Port Elizabeth. SAA also has been placing its code on JetBlue flights from the Eastern US since 2011.
JetBlue is not particularly strong at Washington Dulles International Airport (IAD)—it offers seven daily departures mainly to New York and Boston. However, SAA asked the US carrier to add Dakar to the codeshare relationship, SAA VP-North American sales & marketing Todd Neuman said. JetBlue's other codeshare partner at IAD—United Airlines—was not able to codeshare on the Dakar route. "Any US government travel that is traveling under the Fly America Act has to utilize a US carrier or foreign flag carrier that codeshares with a US carrier," Neuman explained. "For that reason, it was very important to have this agreement."
The market, however, is relatively small. Neuman said there's an estimated 1,800 government passengers flying each year between Washington and Dakar. "There's also residual traffic because corporations that are flying under government contracts are also required to utilize the Fly America Act," he said.
SAA is the only carrier flying nonstop between the US and Dakar.
JetBlue has recently moved beyond one-way codeshare agreements and has been putting its code on international flights. It has a similar bilateral codeshare agreement with Emirates Airline for flights to Europe and the Middle East. It has also applied to place its code on Singapore Airlines flights to several destinations in Europe and Asia.

EDDYVILLE — Want a good look at some historic homes and a couple that show off newer styles? This weekend's Eddyville Tour of Homes might be a good bet.
The event is a fundraiser for the Eddyville Historical Museum. Tickets are $10 and come with a map of the homes. Those go on sale a half hour before the tour each day at the museum, 101 S. Third St.
The tour itself predates the museum. One of those earlier tours was the debut for Linda Lewman's home. She and her husband opened their doors for a tour back in the early 1990s. "We didn't have a historical museum in the early 1990s," she said.
Lewman's involvement with the museum led directly to her return to this year's tour. She figures she has been associated with the museum for seven or eight years. This year they asked whether she might be interested in being one of the stops.
Like Lewman, Connie Johnson's home was part of an early tour before the museum lured her back in this year.
"They had asked us if we would be on it, and we have a big, old house," she said. "And we enjoy decorating."
The Lewman home is well over a century old. That puts it in good company, with three of the five homes built more than 100 years ago. Faith Community Church is in that category as well with more than 150 years' service.
That's part of the attraction for Lewman.
"We have several older homes here," she said. "A couple of the newer ones are people who like to decorate."
Johnson said she enjoys seeing older homes, so giving people a chance to see hers made sense. She's proud of the original woodworking in the home's main floor, something newer construction doesn't often have.
As excited as Johnson is, now it's a rush to the finish line.
"We are decorating," she said. "Almost finished."
The tour is a two-day event. It runs from 5:30-8 p.m. on Friday and 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. on Saturday. The museum will have refreshments and special exhibits available during the tour.

A Concord woman faces numerous charges after an alleged road rage incident in Manchester on April 7.
Jessica McGratty, 25, was arrested and charged with reckless conduct, three counts of criminal threatening, all felonies, and conduct after an accident.
According to Lt. Maureen Tessier, the public information officer for the Manchester Police Department, at a little before 1 a.m. on the morning in question, officers were called to South Willow Street for a report of a road rage incident.
The officers met with the reporting party who alleged that a woman driving a Mazda had fired a gun in the air and pointed it at their Subaru.
It all started after the two cars collided on South Willow Street. After the collision, the Mazda fled the scene and the reporting party began following the Mazda.
Near the area of Cilley Road and Fremont Street, the Mazda allegedly slowed and the woman "(pointed) a handgun out the driver's window, firing a shot into the air." Later, the woman, identified as McGratty, allegedly pointed the gun at the three people in the Subaru who ducked for cover "in fear they would be shot."
McGratty allegedly then left the scene and the Subaru followed at a safer distance while reporting the incident to police.
The police reportedly caught up with McGratty near the Mall of New Hampshire where she was stopped and arrested.
"She was found in possession of a .38 caliber revolver with one spent casing and 4 bullets in the five shot chamber," Tessier alleged.
