A bunch of people have been Making A Difference for over 25 years. They have not only changed lives, but changed families and made a difference in entire communities.
A west Jackson neighborhood sits on property that, just a few years ago, had become an illegal garbage dump among other things.
"Where you had trash and furniture, carcasses of animals, nefarious activity. Crime," said Cindy Griffin, Executive Director for Habitat for Humanity of the MS capitol area. "It was kind of a scary place."
But now, there are houses and families and people living here who have plans for their future. And the big difference is Habitat for Humanity. They acquired the property, and volunteers came in and started building houses and the people who are buying these houses helped build them and turned a eye-sore into an island of dreams come true.
"It has made a big difference in my life and my husbands life because we've always wanted to become homeowners," said Shameka Allen. And with the help of Habitat for Humanity, we are now able to own our own home and not have to rent anymore."
"So now you have school busses coming through here and policemen doing their normal route and children riding their bikes and playing on skateboards and families making homes," added Griffin.
And as a tangible sign things change where habitat goes, the corner of Wood and Ash was arguably one of Jackson's most dangerous places just a few years ago. Now, it is a quiet residential area thanks to city officials who have an aggressive policy against crime.
But also take a look. This area is now sprinkled with habitat houses, new ones and renovations on Wood Street under construction today. The presence of people who are here to make a place, a home, makes a difference.
"So it's a win-win," said Griffin. "It's a win for the community because we are taking derelict abandoned property and putting them back on the tax rolls and we are putting families in a home and giving them an opportunity to be a homeowner and to build wealth."
And a bunch of you individually or with your church or your company have pitched in with a saw or a hammer to help out habitat, and in the process, you have Made a big Difference, for all of us.

Spurs fans back Coach Pop's decision
Tim, Tony, Manu, Danny Green sit out Thursday game against Miami
SAN ANTONIO - It's no secret San Antonio Spurs Head Coach Gregg Popovich dislikes attention on himself and his team.
But after sending home his three stars -- Tim Duncan, Manu Ginobili and Tony Parker -- and guard Danny Green Thursday night, instead of playing them against the NBA champions the Miami Heat, the attention of San Antonio and the nation is on him.
The move was controversial, drawing fierce opinions from analysts and fans alike.
Local Spurs fans, however, were nearly unanimous in support of the move.
"At first, I was kind of shocked, but I understand why he did it," said Ann-Marie Howerton.
"I am for what Pop did," said Anthony Bishop.
Most fans said they know exactly what Coach Popovich was up to.
"He ... is just going to save his players for the long stretch," said Roy Hernandez.
Bishop was asked if he missed seeing the Big Three play against the heat.
"Sure I did, and I am sure some of the fans there missed seeing them as well, and I see that (but) you do what's best for your team," he said.
NBA Commissioner David Stern was not happy about Popovich sending the four players home. He immediately threatened sanctions, something the fans disagreed with.
"(Popovich) should be able to play who he wants to play when he wants to play them," said Howerton.
It was not only Spurs fans in San Antonio who had an opinion -- it was the talk on national sports talk radio shows.
"Popovich is loved by his players for doing stuff just like this," said Colin Cowherd, the host of "The Herd' on ESPN Radio.
"It's Pop's team. He can do what he wants to do," said Scott Van Pelt, also of ESPN Radio.
Nationally syndicated sports talk show host Jim Rome also discussed the move by Pop.
"I side completely with him on this one," said Rome.

Menu secrets that can make you slim by design (w/ Video)
If you've ever ordered the wrong food at a restaurant, don't blame yourself; blame the menu. What you order may have less to do with what you want and more to do with a menu's layout and descriptions.

The Register-News
---- — Hello everybody! Today as I write this column, it is the first day of spring. It sure can't come any sooner to please all of us.
I have been recognized by readers of the column at different places around town, so I guess I can't deny that the picture bears some resemblance to me. It is almost like being a mini-celebrity, but only in Mt. Vernon. It is enjoyable to hear your comments. Many have commented on the fact that the recipes call for ingredients that are common and not too expensive.
This week, while getting ready for school, I was trying to get crock pot pizza made so supper would be ready and waiting. I didn't have time to finish it, so I asked my husband to finish it for me.
I informed him that I had everything set and all he had to do was finish the layers. I should have known better, but I was pressed for time. The husband cannot boil water and he doesn't know his way around the kitchen except to sit in it and have his meal served to him.
After I left, he finished the layers, but decided on his own that I must have forgotten to set the slow cooker. He set it from warm to low cook. Needless to say, it was slightly crunchy. I tease him a lot about his inability to cook and tell him that if I die, he better remarry in a week or two or he will starve to death!
We both enjoyed the Farrington dinner and auction. Last Saturday, my daughter and I set up a booth for the home show at Flora for Bullard's Farm Market and Bakery. We had a good time displaying some of the products carried at the store. You know you are in your home town when people call you by your maiden name. Some of the attendees I hadn't seen for more than 30 years. I was shocked and surprised that they recognized me. One guy recognized me and I didn't know him until he told me who he was; he changed so much. Many asked how Dad was doing and many of them had worked with him for years. It was touching to see how many people were thinking of him.
I first tried this recipe at a Donoho Prairie get together. If you ever get a chance to go to one of their suppers, you are in for a treat. Those women can really cook!
Corn Casserole
1 can whole kernel corn, drained
1 can creamed corn
1 boy Jiffy corn muffin mix
1 cup sour cream
1 stick of butter or margarine, melted
2 eggs, beaten
Mix all together. Bake at 400 degrees for one hour in a greased casserole dish.
I haven't tried this recipe, but I have tasted something similar and I am planning on trying it this week.
Chicken and Dressing Casserole
6 to 8 chicken breasts
1 can cream of chicken soup
1 can cream of celery soup
1 cup sour cream
1 small bag Pepperidge Farm herb dressing
1/2 cup melted margarine
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Cook chicken breasts in water until tender, about an hour. Cool. Remove meat from pan and tear into small pieces. Reserve broth. Butter a large casserole dish and place chicken in dish. Mix soup and sour cream and pour over chicken pieces. Top with dry dressing. Drizzle with margarine. Gently pour chicken broth over all. Make sure dressing is completely wet. Bake for one hour.
This is my recipe for Banana Bread
1 3/4 cup flour
2 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon baking soda
1/3 cup shortening
2/3 cup sugar
2 eggs
1 cup mashed bananas
Sift flour, baking powder, salt and baking soda in a bowl. Put shortening and sugar in another bowl and cream until light an fluffy. Add eggs and beat. Add 1/4 of the flour mixture at a time and beat after each addition. Add bananas and mix until smooth. Pour into a greased loaf pan and bake at 350 degrees for about 60 minutes.
I will leave you with this thought: Sometimes the road less traveled is less traveled for a reason.

This could be the most expensive car pile-up in history. Crumpled Ferraris and other super cars littered a Japanese highway after a huge crash on Sunday.
14 luxury sports cars collided with each other on a highway in South-Western Japan as they were speeding on their way to a car show.
Some of the world's most desirable vehicles were reduced to little more than scrap metal.
Their normally sleek bodywork twisted and battered.
Eight Ferraris, three Mercedes, a Lamborghini and two Toyotas were involved in the crash. Ten drivers were taken to hospital with bruises and cuts but there were no serious injuries.
According to witnesses the cars were traveling more than 90 miles per hour before the accident.

Siena Heights University recently hired George Wolf to be its next vice president of Enrollment Management. He began his duties at SHU June 3.
"George was the top choice for the position by the search committee, and the Executive Committee of the Administration supported the committee's recommendation," said SHU President Sister Peg Albert, OP, PhD. "I firmly believe we have found the right person for the job. He believes in the mission and vision of the University, and has an impressive background in higher education enrollment."
Wolf most recently served as the vice president and dean for Enrollment Services at Westminster College in Missouri and has more than 26 years of enrollment management experience with colleges and universities. That experience also included being the admissions director and assistant vice president of Enrollment Management at Adrian College from 1990-97.
"In these challenging times for private higher education, Siena Heights has made the bold decisions to offer an outstanding college education for high school seniors and adult learners," Wolf said. "I am excited to become part of an institution that understands how important it is to offer an affordable high-quality education."
Wolf has developed and implemented innovative models for enrollment management, financial aid leveraging, marketing and market segmentation, as well as developed reporting structures and predictive modeling for enrollment, yield, net revenue and price elasticity for institutional improvement and strategic success. He is also nationally recognized as a presenter and consultant in the areas of strategic enrollment management, financial aid management and continuous improvement in higher education.
Wolf, 50, completed his bachelor's degree in mass communications/public relations from Kentucky Wesleyan College in 1986 and his master's degree in human resource development from Siena Heights University in 2000. He also has completed 52 doctoral hours from East Tennessee State University in educational leadership and policy analysis.

Understanding the embryonic molecular and genetic origins of cortical interneurons promises to open the way for understanding how different functional classes of interneurons are generated and the logic by which each subclass contribute to the assembly of cortical microcircuits. Our goals in this regard are three fold and together they comprise the breadth of interests of the Fishell laboratory.
01. Using inducible genetic fate mapping and conditional loss of function analysis, in combination with genome-wide microarray analysis of cortical interneurons to study how developmental gene expression leads to the emergence of cortical interneurons with distinct functional properties.
02. To use the precision achieved through genetic methods to understand the �rules� by which specific subclasses of cortical interneurons integrate into the postnatal cortex.
03. Beyond understanding the logic by which cortical microcircuits develop, we wish to develop genetic tools by which specific cortical interneuronal populations can be manipulated to a) trace their synaptic circuitry b) visualize, induce or suppress their activity in vivo c) explore the cellular mechanisms by which they maintain their unique architectures.
Through these multifaceted methods, a picture of the logic by which cortical microcircuits are established is beginning to emerge. At present we are examining how the loss of developmental genes affects the gene expression patterns, electrophysiological properties and fine cytoarchitecture of the mature neurons. Through this effort we are beginning to connect embryonic gene expression to mature neuronal phenotypes.

|Climbed the West Gully route direct with my brother (reconronin949) towards Catwalk Crux in hopes of connecting with the Knife-Edge Ridge towards Whitney Glacier. While there was still enough snow on the Catwalk, we ended up down climbing below the Knife-Edge Ridge as the conditions did not permit a safe traverse. We made the top of the West Face and had an uneventful slog up a dry Misery Hill to the summit. Weather was perfect. Glissaded most of the West Face on our return. Lots of nice folks were met along the way including Roxanne who is the caretaker at Horse Camp. No space aliens were sighted. Thanks for climbing with me Recon.

|There was one last remaining ribbon of snow all the way up the West Face route, but I suspect it's gone now. Terrible snow year so you better hurry up. BTW does anyone have any idea if the cascade gulch route still exists. Everyone on the mountain warned against it due to the Whitney Glacier cross over, hence the West Face Route, which was kinda lame. Strait, steep, boring. Misery hill is completely bare right now.

Fork Report: ASU rallies to beat Colorado
TEMPE -- Arizona State stormed back from an early 17-4 deficit to beat Colorado 65-56 in front of a season-high crowd of 6,298 at Wells Fargo Arena.
Carrick Felix led the way with 20 points and 8 rebounds, while Jordan Bachynski added 16 points, 7 rebounds and 9 blocked shots.
The Good
Reserve guard Chris Colvin played a big part in the win, supplying 31 energetic minutes off the bench. Colvin scored points, grabbed 4 rebounds and handed out a team-high 5 assists.
Arizona State's defense was superb for a large portion of the game, but notably in the second half, when they held Colorado to just 23 points on 26.8% shooting from the field.
Forward Jonathan Gilling asserted himself on the boards, grabbing a team-high 10 rebounds. "We've turned him into Dennis Rodman," ASU head coach Herb Sendek said following the game. It was Gilling's third double-digit rebounding game this season. The Danish sophomore is averaging 7.4 boards per game after averaging only 1.8 per contest as a freshman.
ASU had five turnovers in the first 7:06 of the game when the Buffaloes were able to build their 13-point lead. But the Sun Devils regrouped and took much better care of the basketball the rest of the way, committing only five over the last 32:54.
The Bad
ASU's free throw shooting continues to be horrendous, but amazingly hasn't cost them in a game yet this season. The Devils were 20-of-33 from the stripe, and that included six consecutive makes to end the game.
And it's hard to put his performance in the "bad" category because of all he did to contribute to the win, so we'll just point out that freshman guard Jahii Carson had a season-low five points on only 1-of-4 shooting. Carson did have four rebounds and three assists in 38 minutes, and did a solid job defensively.
He Said It:
"They're a great team. They won the Pac last year, and they're going to be a forced to be reckoned with this year so for us to be able to step up and play like we did and come up with a win -- I mean it wasn't in overtime, so I think that's a little bit better than our friends down south, but they're a great team and I definitely feel like this is a huge win for us." -- ASU center Jordan Bachynski, making reference to Arizona's controversial overtime win over Colorado Thursday night in Tucson.
� Bo Barnes, a sophomore transfer, scored his first points of the season when he hit a three-pointer midway through the first half. Barnes' three also seemed to ignite ASU, which went on a 27-16 run to close out the half down only three points, 33-30.
� ASU is 2-0 in Pac-10/Pac-12 play for only the fourth time. The Sun Devils started 5-0 in 1979-80, 4-0 in 1987-88 and 4-0 in 2007-08.
� Jordan Bachynski's nine blocked shots give him a total of 68 for the season, just one behind Tommy Smith's mark of 69 in 2002-03 for the fourth-most in a single season in ASU history.
� From the 17:36 mark of the first half to the 1:52 mark of the second, Colorado missed 12 straight three-point shots. The Buffaloes finished 2-of-19 from behind the arc. CU came into the game hitting .404 of their long-distance shots.
� Colorado forward Andre Roberson had a season-low five points, but did finish with 13 rebounds -- his 11th double-digit rebound effort of the season.
� Former ASU coach Bill Frieder and ASU Hall of Famer Alton Lister were both in attendance.
Up Next
The Sun Devils hit the road for their next two contests. They'll face Oregon State in Corvallis Thursday night. The game tips off at 9:30 p.m. and can be heard on Arizona Sports 620.

Two people were killed on Monday when at least one person barged into an Oak Lawn apartment and opened fire, police said.
The incident happened sometime after noon at 3323 Cedar Plaza Ln, off Lemmon Avenue.
According to Dallas Police Lt. Eno Fite, three people were inside the apartment at the time of the shooting.
"[Officers] found one male deceased at the apartment and two others had been transferred to Parkland Hospital, where one of the other persons – males – passed away," Fite said. "And the other one sustained non-life-threatening injuries."
Fite said there were likely two shooters and that they probably knew the victims.
She said police were interviewing witnesses and that a suspect description was not immediately available.
The investigation is ongoing, Fite said.

This vintage shows pulpy fruit, soft spice and chocolate backed by dark concentration. The mouthfeel is generous and full with a thick, velvety texture."
Cellar/Tasting Notes "The 2009 Brunello di Montalcino is a standout expression with long and polished notes of dried fruit and tobacco presented in a smooth and seamless fashion. It shows good structure and balance but an even prettier nose with ethereal balsam herbs, tar, licorice and pressed violets that emerge as..

Default Gothic
Default Gothic [1996] finds its initial inspiration in the look of Apple's Chicago system font (by Susan Kare) — particularly the distinctive 'C' in the scalable version of the font (by Bigelow & Holmes). The similarity doesn't go much further, however, as Default Gothic embodies more delicate and nuanced terminals, super-elliptical body structures, and a narrower aspect.
The Default Gothic fonts include: Western and Eastern European characters, Stylistic Alternates, ligatures, and more.

CATEGORIES Animation, Classics, Universal, Warner Brothers, Family Films, Obits, CinematicalFor many of my generation, Hanna-Barbera animation is more associated with television than film (see TVSquad's post). After all, the studio produced some of the most famous TV cartoons from the '60s on, including The Jetsons, The Flintstones, Scooby-Doo, Where Are You!, The Yogi Bear Show, The Powerpuff Girls, and many, many more. Plus, the Cartoon Network would hardly be anything if not for the team-up of William Hanna and Joseph Barbera.
But Hanna-Barbera had a lot to do with cinema, and not just for movie versions of their series, like The Flintstones and Scooby-Doo. In the beginning, before cartoons were a Saturday morning TV staple, they were a Saturday afternoon cinema staple, and animated shorts were shown on the big screen. Hanna and Barbera got their start making shorts for MGM, which led to multiple Oscars for their Tom and Jerry titles (none of which were actually won by the pair by name) plus an uncredited bit for Anchors Aweigh, before the studio closed its animation studio in 1957. It was then that the duo formed their own company and dove into television, but other features did come now and then, such as The Man Called Flintstone, Jetsons: The Movie and Charlotte's Web.
William Hanna died in 2001 and now Joseph Barbera has joined him in Hollywood Heaven. He died Monday of natural causes at the age of 95.

"Quite good"
I can see why the reviewers were impressed with this debut novel. The characters are quite good. The depiction of the small town seems very real. And the plot is full of intricate twists and surprises that somehow make sense. The ending, I thought, was the best part. I am usually able to figure out the mystery ahead of time. In this case, I "saw it" almost at the same time as our protagonist, detective Stride. I disagree with the reviewer who said we did not have the evidence -- we did! Mr. Freeman was simply great at disguising it so you didn't even look in those particular corners.
Excellently done.
"Yet another excellent depiction of human nature"
I had just finished reading "The Last Anniversary" and at first thought "Big Little Lies" gave away too much, too early...Duped, of course, by Ms. Moriarty. There are twists and turns and surprises all the way along. At the bottom, of course, are the author's incredible character depictions. Her knowledge of the best and worst human nature has to offer. These people are REAL. You have met them (or perhaps you ARE them). And she will make you laugh and cry at the smallness (and largeness) of day-to-day life. Towards the end, you are glued to the story--told expertly, by the way, from many points of view in a way that is particularly suited for an audiobook in the hands (voice?) of Caroline Lee.
"Too many witticisms, too little substance"
I was looking forward to this novel because of the great reviews it seemed to be getting everywhere. Someone (I think in People magazine) compared it to "Gone Girl" (clearly, someone who had not read Gone Girl).
There is very, very little here except one witty, cutting remark after another from the protagonist. And it gets old very, very quickly--particularly because there is absolutely nothing to back it up: no character development (the main character herself is totally unbelievable and it only gets worse with the slew of secondary people...most never progress past the stereotype); no verisimilitude (The plot is based on this girl's quest for her mother's killer. She's released from prison after serving 10 years for the murder...and immediately follows the most implausible of leads EVER -- and I mean EVER -- and, of course, because this book is awful, the lead pans off); no resolution (you keep waiting for some twist to happen...but, no...it's just one runaway train of a plot); no talent (sorry, Ms. Little).
Perhaps if I had not been expecting so much (or if I was a 16-year-old looking for a very light 'mystery' to read on the beach), I would have given it three stars. As it was, I had to force myself to finish it.
The narrator compounds the issue. I found her voice grating and her never-changing inflection (perhaps unavoidable because she had nothing to work on) makes the lines seem even triter than they are.
"Excellent Moriarty"
I wondered about this book because it was written in 2005 and not turned into an audiobook until 2014 (timed with the release of the author's new novel). Thought perhaps audiobooks had ignored it because it was not a very good example of the author's work...and almost ignored it myself. So glad I did not! Like in every Moriarty novel, the story is populated with everyday people who have to deal with highly unusual circumstances (two sisters find an abandoned baby and raise it as their own; an old lady leaves her island house to her grandson's ex-girlfriend...). Moriarty uses her unbelievable knowledge of human nature to make all the characters come to life with wit and compassion--and you feel like you know each and every one. The ending of all her novels are always a little sad simply because you have to say good-bye to the 'people' in them.
"Entertaining enough"
The narrator does not do the story any favors. His voice is too monotonous, his pauses too long.
The story itself is not great. A tad too unbelievable. A tad too predictable. A tad too "convenient" in terms of events happening right when they had to.
AND YET, I give it four stars. It kept me entertained to the end. Sometimes, that's exactly what you want.
This is my first Margolin book and I might give another a try.
"Deeply human"
When I started listening to this story, I realized it was the wrong novel for me at this particular time. I needed something lighter. I kept telling myself I'd stop listening and go back to it at another time...but the writing kept me hooked. Something was going on here that went beyond the two children whose day-to-day lives Doerr was describing.
I am so glad I kept listening. The story builds and builds. The two children's lives connect in magical ways...and towards the last third of the novel, you find yourself holding your breath.
I don't want to give anything away. Does it have a happy ending? Does it have a sad ending? You'll have to listen for yourselves. I highly recommend the experience. It couldn't be more real, or human.
Can't wait for Mr. Doerr's next novel.
"A bit long-winded, but entertaining nevertheless"
It takes a while for the story to get going because, for a very long time, it seems like you're reading two books. There's a brutal homicide and a woman who wakes up from a seven-year coma...and for almost a third of the novel, the two stories are only connected by the investigator. Then the two stories come together and the book becomes a lot more interesting. Could have been shorter, but it was still entertaining. So much so that I was hooked by the preview of the second in the series and am in the process of downloading it as I write this review.
A dark and painful tale of misery and lives-gone-horribly-wrong, told exquisitely by an author in full control of his audience (and narrated by the perfect voice). I loved it!
The tragic events of a day long ago when the two protagonists were 11 years old are revealed chronologically, and interspersed with what's happening in the present day, when a dreadful coincidence brings the two women together as adults. It's hard to say what's more hypnotic: the dreadful events that are unfolding, or to see the paths their two lives took as a result of that one day in their childhood. I could not tear my eyes (ears?) away. And can't wait for more novels by this author.
To call this is one of the best 'zombie' books I have ever read (I do like zombie books) would be to make it much smaller than it is. Sure, there are zombies, but this book is about human interactions--about humanity. Without giving any of the great turns and twists away, I have to say that the character development is absolutely brilliant. I can't recall a single instance in the book where a character went off-course in an unexpected way--those who changed (and many did) changed because they were reacting to something outside themselves (and the changes were powerful and moving); those who didn't change didn't change because nothing could have made them do so. You come to know each one of them well, especially Madeleine--the little girl at the center of the story. And what a story it is! M.R. Carey has crafted a tightly knit plot that will keep you at the edge or your seat (or wherever you happen to be while you listen) from start to finish. This was one of those audiobooks that I couldn't wait to get back to. Finty Williams is PERFECT for the narrator. Her rendition of little Madeleine's voice is particularly great (conveying innocence without ever being saccharine). Loved it! Can't wait for this author's next novel.
"Very Bad Writing"
I plodded through 5 hours of the first-person 'narrative,' thinking that any minute the story would 'start,' but simply couldn't take it anymore. Zero character development. Zero originality (I like these sorts of fantasies so the plot seemed to have promise when I read the publisher's summary, but the characters behave along extremely stereotypical lines). The combination made for a very boring listen. I am planning to get my credit back.
Skip this one and read "Enchantment" by Orson Scott Card.
"Should have been three and a half stars"
The book is really two stories (a terrorist's plot and a murder mystery) that are force-fitted into one novel through a very implausible connection. That said, both stories are actually quite clever so it keeps your interest from beginning to end--a feat given the length of the book. In fact, I would say Hayes' ability as a storyteller is both the book's salvation and it's biggest problem. He keeps digressing into sub-plots (his childhood, the cop's past bravery, etc., etc....A problem (it seems that he can't help himself), but since all the stories are told well you almost don't mind. The excellent narration by Christophre Ragland helps.

KSFY received the following release from the Hand County Sheriff Wednesday night:
LeRoy Nye has been located. Thank You to all who have assisted in looking for him. Thanks to all the citizens that have searched for him. Thank You to everyone who spread the information far and wide by flyer, media, and social media.
Details will be released by mid-morning regarding the search for LeRoy Nye.
Previous Story:
The Hand County Sheriff tells KSFY a body has been found near the Jerauld - Hand County line. He believes it may be Leroy Nye, a man missing from St. Lawrence since Sunday.
The body was found about 500 feet from a car near the intersection of 369th Avenue and 219th Street. That's about 21 miles northwest of Wessington Springs and 35 miles south of St. Lawrence.
Law enforcement is working with the Nye family right now to determine whether the body is Leroy.
Expect an update Thursday on KSFY Morning News.

"broadcasted" is correct - it is an error to split it.
Some unfortunates have been passed through its horrifying experiences
"been" is incorrectly used. The sentence should read "Some unfortunates have passed through [experienced/suffered] its horrifying experiences..."
The rage of the terrorists make no differences among the people while killing them. This sentence is also badly written. The terrorists' [rage/fury/anger] allows for no differences in the people who are being killed.
Whatever this piece is, it was not written by a skilled writer of English.
