SOUTH BEND, Ind. (AP) -- Jack Cooley scored a career-high 27 points and had 17 rebounds as No. 20 Notre Dame beat Providence 75-69 on Friday night to wrap up a double bye in next week's Big East tournament.
Notre Dame (21-10, 13-5) locked up the No. 3 seed in the tournament and ended a two-game losing skid that followed a nine-game winning streak.
Cooley, who had just two points and no rebounds in the Irish's loss at Georgetown on Monday, scored 21 points and grabbed 10 rebounds in the first half, hitting 7 of 10 shots. He finished 10 for 15 from the field.
Vincent Council and Gerard Coleman had 17 points each and LaDontae Henton added 16 points and 11 rebounds for Providence (15-16, 4-14). But the Friars were cold out from the 3-point line, missing their first 13 attempts before hitting three straight and finishing 4-for-20.
Up three at the half, the Irish outscored the Friars 26-5 over the first 10 minutes of the second to take control in their regular-season finale.
Injured Tim Abromaitis and fellow senior Scott Martin were honored pre-game and at halftime Hall of Famer Adrian Dantley was inducted into Notre Dame's Ring of Honor.
The Irish opened up some distance with a 9-0 run that started with another Cooley basket and ended with a 3-pointer from Jerian Grant, making it 42-31.
Then came a 15-point spurt that built a big lead as Eric Atkins converted a three-point play to start the run and Tom Knight's dunk ended it to put Notre Dame up 57-33.
Providence hustled and scrapped and cut it to eight with a minute left, forcing Notre Dame to re-insert Martin, who'd come out earlier for a curtain call. Gerard Coleman's steal and layup got the Friars to within six with 48 seconds left.
But Notre Dame was able to hold on as Grant hit two from the line with 8 seconds remaining.
Dragicevich hit the game's first 3-pointer with a half minute left in the half to put the Irish up 31-26. Gerard Coleman worked inside for a basket just before the buzzer and Notre Dame's halftime lead was only three points.
Providence showed the quickness to match Notre Dame but was 0 for 10 on 3s in the opening 20 minutes. But their main problem was containing Cooley, whose career high coming in was 22 points.
Cooley had five rebounds and six points in the first four and a half minutes Friday night and scored 11 of the Irish's first 13 points.
The Friars took a one-point lead on Henton's slam off a break.

RUGBY UNION: London Welsh beaten in opener
6:37pm Sunday 2nd September 2012 in Sport By Ed Mezzetti, Sports reporter specialising in Rugby, Cricket and Athletics. Call me on 01865 425456
London Welsh 13 (tries Arscott, Tonga'uiha; pen Ross),
Leicester Tigers 38 (tries Waldrom 2, Parling, Salvi, Goneva; cons Flood 5; pen Flood)
ALTHOUGH outclassed, London Welsh emerged with some credit from their Aviva Premiership debut at Oxford's Kassam Stadium .
It was just over two months ago that the Exiles finally learned they would play top-flight rugby after winning their appeal against an RFU ruling.
And the fear was that they would be whipping boys – especially against such established opponents as Leicester.
But on their first appearance at English rugby's top table, they did enough to give their fans some hope for the season ahead and showed the sort of spirit that will be vital in their quest to stay up.
Leicester were worthy winners, but both their second-half tries had hints of forward passes about them and Welsh captain Jon Mills missed a trick by not asking them to be referred to the television match official (TMO) as the new rules now allow.
The only major negative from Welsh was their sloppy line-out, which head coach Lyn Jones highlighted afterwards and Leicester's Geoff Parling and Rob Andrew exploited.
Some 6,850 turned up at the Kassam Stadium, with a large number of them travelling Leicester supporters – and they were offered an entertaining curtain-raiser to Premiership rugby in Oxford.
Leicester fly half Toby Flood and his opposite number Gordon Ross traded missed penalties early on, but Tigers definitely had the edge.
England No 10 Flood was successful with his second penalty on eight minutes as Welsh looked nervy, kicking away possession twice.
Leicester created space with a flowing move on the left and England No 8 Thomas Waldrom finished in the corner on 14 minutes.
Flood converted well and it looked as if the scores would keep coming.
There was a flashpoint after a high tackle by Welsh wing Joe Ajuwa on Leicester centre Manu Tuilagi, but Tigers power showed again when Waldrom was driven over on 22 minutes.
Welsh responded immediately, with prop Franck Montanella almost getting over, but it was not long before full back Tom Arscott had just enough momentum to score their maiden Premiership try.
The Exiles were visibly lifted and capitalised on some possible Tigers complacency as centre Hudson Tonga'uiha scampered down the right to make it 17-10 at the break.
Leicester director of rugby Richard Cockerill cannot have been happy at half-time – and his side responded with try No 3 just two minutes after the interval.
England lock Parling ended up with an easy finish after Welsh were outflanked and Flood converted.
Ross slotted a penalty for his first successful kick of the afternoon, but it was 31-13 on 50 minutes when flanker Julian Salvi powered over from close range, Flood converting.
The gulf between the two sides was further illustrated by the replacements Tigers could bring on such as Italy prop Marin Castrogiovanni, plus England internationals George Chuter and Jordan Crane.
And the scoreline widened too when some precise passing gave wing Vereneki Goneva half a yard of space to motor down the left wing on 62 minutes, Flood converting for 38-13.
You wondered if Welsh would fade and their scrum was creaking by the end, but the Exiles' spirit carried them through to the final whistle without further damage.
London Welsh: Arscott, MacKenzie, Parker, Tonga'uiha, Ajuwa, Ross (Jewell 73), Holmes (Runciman 65), Montanella (Bateman 57), Briggs, Ion (Joly 77), Mills (capt), Kulemin (Bristow 57), Williamson
(To'ala 58), Beach (Purdy 57), Browne.
Leicester Tigers: Murphy (capt), Hamilton, Tuilagi, Allen, Goneva, Flood (Ford 66), Young (Harrison 23), Mulipola (Stankovich 54), T Youngs (Chuter 60), Cole (Castrogiovanni 54), Andrew, Parling, Mafi (Deacon 66), Salvi, Waldrom (Crane 56).
Referee: J Doyle (London)
Man-of-the-match: Parling.

The low gate for a Tigers match could probably be blamed on the ticket office screw-ups in the weeks leading up to the game. This followed into the matchday itself with chaos in the North Stand as the seat numbers for a large area had been allocated twice. I can think of a few football 'tribes' that wouldn't have sorted the problems out quite so amicably.
The policy of only offering South Stand tickets until there's a demonstrable demand is going to irk a lot of travelling and neutral fans.
The South stand is the most expensive and offers the least amount of centre-line seats to prospective ticket buyers and frankly I'd rather watch it on TV than be tucked up in the top corner of the only stand available.
As a local from Wantage I've wanted a move by any APL club to the Kassam for years. It's a great stadium for rugby.
The parking around the stadium is fantastic but it needs to be managed - the visitors for rugby are new to the area and it would help if there was some matchday guidance for visitors especially if they are going to continue to outnumber the locals.
When 'local' derbys are on - and there's going to be at least two - I hope that the organisers put more stewards in the car parks and less in the ground. Either that or start publicising alternative travel arrangements perhaps from the Park & Ride?

The portraits in this book are an indelible expression of the engaging interhuman contacts, curious about each others living environment, full of deeply human feelings and respect.
This is the only way to approach these beautiful people: without prejudice, without paternalistic meddling, but also without romance.
Life is hard in this surreal oasis of Afro-traditionalism and Western interference has been disastrous. Pseudo documentaries, and thrill seeking reality shows from our TV channels have introduced the concept of money here, loads of money, unfortunately used to purchase fire arms and disrupting the stability between the tribes. Western thought as missionary work together with the arrival of luxury goods they never asked for equally challenges these communities.
This living Africa museum is approaching a point of no return, after which nothing will be the same anymore. We therefore feel extremely grateful that we have been able to meet these wonderful people, before their culture turns into mere tourist folklore.

RALEIGH, NC (WECT) - There may be some jobs headed to the coastal region in the near future.
According to a report released Thursday by Gov. Bev Perdue's Scientific Advisory Panel, North Carolina has the largest offshore wind resource on the east coast.
The group says that it may offer significant job opportunities for the state.
The report confirms what has been found in other studies done by UNC-chapel hill and the Energy Policy Council.
In a statement, Will Morgan, Director of Government Relations for the NC Sierra Club said, "Governor Perdue recognizes that North Carolina has the opportunity to harness our abundant offshore wind resource to generate the electricity we need to power our homes and our businesses, while protecting the air, water, and natural beauty that our state a place we are proud to call home."

The head of the United Nations nuclear watchdog agency plans to fly to Iran on Sunday to discuss nuclear issues with high-level officials in Tehran.
Ahead of upcoming nuclear talks, Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad downplayed the threat Israel poses to Iran, comparing it to an annoying bug.
With 30-plus governments since independence (average length less than two years), Israeli politics rarely surprises. But Monday's agreement between Benjamin Netanyahu and Kadima leader Shaul Mofaz did precisely that.
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and his right-wing Likud party have agreed to form a unity government with the rival centrist political faction Kadima in a move that will put off elections until late next year and create one of the largest coalition governments in Israeli history.
Israel, by necessity, has developed one of the most able security and intelligence apparatus in the world. There has been no necessity to develop a world-class political apparatus, however, and it shows.

Why is the international community suspicious of Iran's nuclear program? CNN's Hala Gorani reports.
A threatened Israeli attack on Iran's nuclear program carries enormous risks for the Jewish state, including international isolation, retaliation at home and abroad, and steep economic costs.
It's been almost a decade since the United States accused Iran of actively working on a secret program to develop nuclear weapons. Since then, Iran has steadfastly proclaimed to a skeptical world that it only seeks to produce nuclear energy, while American presidents have repeatedly warned that the United States will not tolerate a nuclear-armed Iran. Over the years, the international community has demanded, to no avail, that Tehran end its uranium enrichment program.
There are "red lines," a "window of opportunity," the risk of a "zone of immunity," and plenty of other cryptic terms about Iran's nuclear program. What does it involve? Where is it leading? How and when should it be stopped or restrained?
Iran is not open about its nuclear program, but it should be, the head of the U.N. nuclear watchdog agency said Wednesday.
While meeting with U.S. lawmakers, Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu said he won't discuss attacking Iran.

For a battleground state that relies heavily on tourism, rising gas prices are striking a nerve. George Howell reports.
For me, the issue of skyrocketing gasoline prices came into focus about four years ago, when the national average that Americans paid at the pump reached an all-time high of $4.11 a gallon.

Iran's envoy to the International Atomic Energy Agency said Friday he is hopeful that the recent planned visit by representatives of the nuclear watchdog will "resolve any ambiguity and show (our) transparency and cooperation with the agency."
The history of U.S. sanctions against Iran dates as far back as 1979, when hostages were held at the U.S. Embassy in Tehran. Over the years, the U.S. government has approved other sanctions.

The Redskins continue to add depth to their receiving corps, signing WR Josh Morgan on Tuesday. The news comes hours after free-agent WR Pierre Garcon had said he would sign with Washington.
Michael Lombardi of NFL Network reports that Morgan's deal is two years for $12 million. Of that, $7.5 million is guaranteed.
In four NFL seasons, all with the 49ers, Morgan has been a solid receiver, hauling in 131 receptions for 1,764 yards. He averaged 14.7 yards per catch for San Francisco last season before fracturing his right ankle in Week Five and going on injured reserve.
The Redskins are apparently close to a deal with WR Eddie Royal as well, giving them three new targets for expected first-round pick Robert Griffin III.
Fantasy spin
The Redskins continued rebuilding the WR position, first by signing new No. 1 starter Pierre Garcon and then adding Josh Morgan for depth. Morgan earned quite the payday, considering he's merely a supporting player. His contract is a two-year, $12 million deal with $7.5 million guaranteed.
Morgan only lasted five games as a 49er last season before going down with a broken leg. He ended with 15-220-1 on 20 targets, and some believe he was underutilized. Yet, until he shows consistency and wins a starting job, his fantasy value is minimal.

"I guess this will probably go down, at least in modern times, since I've been here, as probably the most important game ever played at home," Pitino said.
There's some of the trademark Pitino hyperbole in that statement, but far less than usual. It is the final home game for Peyton Siva and Gorgui Dieng. It's a chance to see if the University of Louisville can play six, seven or eight overtimes against Notre Dame. It is certainly an opportunity to send more good vibes to the NCAA Tournament Selection committee.
But first on Pitino's list is what should be first: The chance to win at least a share of the final Big East regular-season championship.
This is the final regular-season Big East game that Louisville will play. Pitino loves Big East Conference basketball more than he loves the designer department at Sak's. His program has won the Big East title once – 2009 – in eight seasons in the league.
"It's always been a tough conference," he said.
Georgetown lost at Villanova Wednesday. That means all the Cardinals have to do is defeat the Fighting Irish in the KFC Yum! Center to have their names engraved on the Big East regular-season trophy.
They'll likely have to share that Big East title with Georgetown and Marquette. All three teams are 13-4. But that's OK. In fact, it's probably fitting because the first Big East title was also shared three ways, by Georgetown, St. John's and Syracuse in 1980.
That was three Hall of Fame coaches -- John Thompson (Georgetown), Louie Carnesecca (St. John's) and Jim Boeheim (Syracuse). It was the first sign that being good in the Big East ensured that you mattered in the country.
That has never changed. Six Big East teams have won the national championship. That's what Dave Gavitt envisioned when he put the league together: make Eastern basketball matter as much as it mattered in the Atlantic Coast and Big Ten conferences.
Mission accomplished.
Now the league is breaking up. A few more days of regular-season play. An epic farewell game between Syracuse and Georgetown Saturday in Washington D.C. The Big East Tournament in Madison Square Garden next week. They'll start by playing, "New York, New York," and then finish with "Thanks For the Memories."
The break-up and reformulation of all these conferences screams that tradition does not matter. It matters to Rick Pitino. As he made his farewell tour around the league, Pitino discussed The End with Boeheim, Villanova's Jay Wright, John Thompson III of Georgetown and the league's other high-octane coaches.
He talked about it again Monday night when Gavitt's son, Dan, attended the U of L-Cincinnati game in his new role as the NCAA's vice president of the men's basketball championship.
"We all feel that it's a shame that we're breaking up," Pitino said. "It means so much. A piece of history leaves us all."
Pitino grew up in New York City. He started making his name as a Hall of Fame coach by winning games against those titans during his two seasons (1986-87) at Providence College, the same place where Dave Gavitt once worked.
The Big East is the league of Patrick Ewing, Chris Mullin, Pearl Washington, Ray Allen, Allen Iverson, Ron Artest, Alonzo Mourning, Rip Hamilton, Carmelo Anthony, Kemba Walker and so many other greats. The list goes on, paragraph after paragraph.
It's also the league where Thompson, Carnesecca, Boeheim, Pitino, Jim Calhoun, Bob Huggins and so many other sharp coaches worked.
You want your name on that final trophy.
"We're playing for a championship," Pitino said.
It's more than a championship. It's the final Big East championship.

Community members will get a chance to voice their opinion on funding repairs to a century old historic Shelbyville landmark.
The City Council approved the suggestion to survey the community about immediate work that needs to be done on the Chautauqua building. The surveys will be included in an upcoming water bill.
The Chautauqua Preservation Committee re-addressed the City Council last week with an update on the building's condition and plans for funding the project.
"The building is in a position where something has to be done with it," said committee chairman Wayne Gray. "There are two or three options with the building, but we need to do something about it. We can't sit around and wait to raise the funds - we have to do something now."
Gray noted that a support in the building's ceiling is showing signs of stress. He added that Shelby Electric Cooperative promised to help with putting in a new support beam.
Gray and Noel Bolinger met with a representative of the Jeffers Foundation who visited the building. The Foundation offers a grant that would pay up to 33 percent, or $135,000, of the repairs. The request for the grant will made in March with the award being made in early to mid-summer.
"But if we get the grant, we have two or three years to raise the match," Gray noted.
The committee has raised $120,000, and even if the grant was awarded, the committee would still be short $150,000 for the first phase of the restoration project.
The council discussed the idea of a bond referendum to raise the full expense to fully restore the building. The estimate of $1.7 million was made a few years ago and the question of inflation may raise the cost.
"(Consulting architect) Chuck Pell thought the estimate was firm. We could ask for $2 million and use the excess on other improvements in the park such as sewer, restrooms or parking," Bolinger suggested.
A referendum could not appear on the ballot until 2014.
In other action the council
- Approved a motion to proceed with plans for the downtown mini-park.
- Approved a request for TIF funds by Kevin and Schryll Bersen for refurbishing the property at 119 E. Main
- Approved the zoning commission's recommendation to rezone specific areas in the city from mobile home districts to residential.
- Authorized city attorney John Freeman to draft an ordinance about the use of neighborhood electric vehicles in the city limits. The ordinance will be voted on at the next meeting.
Commissioner Bill Shoaff reported that one of the city's wells has been capped and another has been rejuvenated and that maintenance on the water tanks is being planned.
"We'll have to have a water rate increase at the beginning of the year because this is going to be rather expensive. This is an 8 to 10 year maintenance plan and we don't have to have a lot of money up front," Shoaff said.

Our butler made the trip very pleasant as he was always on hand, seemingly anticipating our needs.
The Silver Spirit is larger and somewhat harder to get a handle on than the Whisper/Shadow ships we had sailed on before. The Dining Room seems huge and in a way off-putting by it's size. The Bar is much larger and easy to find a spot in, that's a plus for us. All the other familiar spots are bigger and, in many ways, better.
This was our first experience with Hot Rocks, the transformation of the Pool Grill at night. We really enjoyed the under the stars hot rock experience. In fact we enjoyed all our meals: four dinners in the Main Dining Room, four in La Terrazza, four at Hot Rocks, two in Le Champagne, and (of course) the Pool BBQ.
Overall, a luxurious pampering experience.

TWO middle-aged women protesting Santos's coal seam gas exploration activities in the Pilliga forest have accused police of using excessive force.
Cherie Robinson and Katherine Marchment claim officers from the Barwon Local Area Command went "over the top" with their pain compliance tactics.
Yesterday morning the women linked arms and sat in the middle of a dirt road to prevent a truck transporting coal seam gas drilling equipment from passing.
When the women refused to comply with a directive to move, two police officers attempted to physically separate the duo.
Footage shot by a protester shows the officers twisting the women's arms in an attempt to wrench them apart.
Once free, Ms Marchment is then dragged by her arms on her back for a number of metres along the dirt road.
The camera pans back to Mrs Robinson, a dry-land farmer from a property between the Pilliga and Coonamble, and shows the officer again twisting her arm behind her back until she finally stands up.
A police officer, who had earlier told the protesters to "put down your cameras and leave", then approaches the cameraman and says "Sir, do you want to be arrested?" before the filming stops.
"It was really, really painful," Mrs Robinson, who was participating in her first direct action protest, said.
"I'm pretty sure if I hadn't have stood up he would have done some damage, because he was really forceful and twisted my wrist one way and my arm the other way.
"He was pinching me, trying to get me to let go of Katherine. I wasn't complying, but I wasn't pushing him away or touching him one bit.
"It was really over the top, I think – I'm only little."
When The Leader asked NSW Police if it considered the actions of the officers acceptable, a spokesman said: "Based on the edited footage provided, NSW Police cannot comment on the full circumstances surrounding the incident."
A Santos spokeswoman said the company had approval for the work under way in the Pilliga forest and was committed to carrying out this work in a "safe and timely manner".
Mrs Robinson and Ms Marchment, of Victoria, were charged with offences under the Forestry Act and bailed to appear in Narrabri Local Court on March 25.

A proposal to speed the approval of new prescription drugs has patient advocates and biotech firms — including many based in Maryland — hoping that Congress will deliver a rare dose of bipartisanship this year.
Lawmakers are proposing a 6 percent increase in the fees that pharmaceutical firms pay the Food and Drug Administration to offset the cost of approving new drugs. If the measure is not signed into law by the end of September, the FDA would lose the ability to charge any fees and be forced to lay off 2,000 workers, significantly slowing review times.
Though the effort has broad bipartisan support — as well as the backing of companies that pay the fees — leaders of Maryland's biotech industry are anxiously monitoring the bill, the first major health care measure with a shot to move through Congress since President Barack Obama's 2010 health insurance overhaul.
Supporters want to ensure that the legislation isn't jeopardized by Washington's partisan political environment, which has stymied other previously uncontroversial measures.
"Having this passed in a productive and smooth manner is absolutely critical," said Peter Greenleaf, president of Gaithersburg-based MedImmune, which employs 2,700 people in Maryland. "Any delays ... would significantly hamper drugs getting reviewed and approved."
The House Energy and Commerce Committee is expected to start work on its version of the bill Tuesday.
The fate of the legislation is particularly important for companies such as MedImmune, the biologics arm of British pharmaceutical giant AstraZeneca. By 2014, Greenleaf said, the company expects to have more than a dozen drugs in critical phase-two trials, which are used to test the effectiveness of new compounds.
Because of its potential to either speed or slow the approval of drugs, the measure also is a top priority for patient groups. The advocacy arm of the American Cancer Society, for instance, has pushed lawmakers to move quickly on the bill. "New medicines and treatments can often make the difference between life and death for cancer patients," the group said in a letter to Congress this year.
Life sciences account for 71,618 jobs in Maryland, about half of which are in the private sector, according to the Department of Business and Economic Development. In part because the state is home to the FDA, which is based in Silver Spring, and the National Institutes of Health, located in Bethesda, Maryland has the fifth-highest concentration of life sciences companies in the nation.
And that is why the effort to reauthorize the fees — and keep drugs moving quickly through the approval pipeline — is so important to the state, said Sen. Barbara A. Mikulski, a key architect of the Senate version of the legislation.
"It really helps create jobs," the Maryland Democrat and member of the Senate health committee said of the legislation. "Our biotech industry is booming."
If the measure is approved, the FDA expects to hire 1,200 more workers, most of them in Maryland, to review prescription drugs, medical devices and generic drugs. Alternatively, if it is not passed, most of the layoffs would occur in Maryland.
Congress created the fees in 1992 when U.S. drug approval times began to lag behind those in other nations. Companies agreed to pay so the FDA could hire more scientists, doctors, engineers and statisticians to reduce the time needed for a new drug to work its way through the review pipeline.
For the most part, the effort has been a success. The average time the FDA needed to review a drug in 1992 was about two years. That was cut nearly in half by 2009. The fees are now central to financing the agency's mission. Nearly two-thirds of the $932 million the FDA spent reviewing drugs in 2010 came from the fees, not federal taxes.
But Congress must reauthorize the fees every five years or forgo the revenue. The proposed reauthorization for 2012 would increase drug fees by 6 percent, bringing in a total of $693 million next year. The proposal would double the fees for approving medical devices and create a similar fee structure for generic drugs.
In exchange, drug makers hope a more streamlined process would shave a few more months off review times.
The legislation also would require pharmaceutical companies to keep better track of where the ingredients for their drugs come from and would give the FDA more resources to inspect manufacturing plants overseas, including in China and India. The agency would begin inspecting foreign manufacturing plants every two years, compared with an average of once every nine years today.
Several biotech leaders in Maryland said they welcome the reauthorization because it gives the industry the chance to tweak the review program.
Ginette Serrero, CEO of a small Columbia-based company called A&G Pharmaceutical, said reviews can get bogged down by turnover at the FDA. When a new reviewer or statistician begins work on an existing application, she said, it can slow the process as that person gets up to speed.
The higher fees, Serrero said, would enable the FDA to hire more reviewers and train them better, which she hopes would lead to "an environment that is stable" and more efficient.

FatWallet Family Favorite Holiday Cookie Recipes
December 21, 2012 | Posted By: Heather Stephens | Categorized in: Food & Dining Out
Who needs Keebler elves? We've got FatWallet baking elves!
We had our annual Christmas Cookie Exchange party at FatWallet this week! A dozen of us baked up our family's holiday favorites to swap with our coworkers! A bite here, a nibble there and before long we were m-m-m-ing and talking about recipes. I thought it would be fun to share them with you on the blog!
So without further adieu, here are the recipes from FatWallet's cookie bakers; the ones who were willing to share. We did have a few bakers with "top secret" recipes who we need to work on bribing or something...
Peanut Butter Cup Cookies (Katie Weber)
1/2 tsp. salt
1 tsp. baking soda
1/2 c. softened butter
1/2 c. white sugar
1/2 c. creamy peanut butter
1/2 c. packed brown sugar
1 beaten egg
1 tsp. vanilla extract
2 Tbsp. milk
40 mini Reese's cups un-wrapped
Oven to 375* Sift together flour, salt, baking soda & set aside. Cream together butter, sugar, peanut butter & brown sugar until fluffy. Beat in egg, vanilla & milk ... Add flour mixture, mix well! Shape into 40 balls and place each into an un-greased mini-muffin pan. (mine holds 24 per pan)
Bake @ 375* for about 8 minutes ... depending on your oven. watch closely!
Remove from oven & immediately press a mini Reese's cup into center of each mound.
(Instead of using a mini-muffin pan - just plop each ball onto a cookie sheet lined with parchment paper)
Let cool completely before removing from pan.
Mint Chocolate Chip Cookies - Betty Crocker 2010 Recipe (Ann McKenna-Hand)
1/2 cup butter or margarine, softened
1/4 to 1/2 teaspoon mint extract
6 to 8 drops green food color
1 egg
1 cup creme de menthe baking chips
1cup semisweet chocolate chunks
1. Heat oven to 350°F. In large bowl, stir cookie mix, butter, extract, food color and egg until soft dough forms. Stir in creme de menthe baking chips and chocolate chunks.
2. Using small cookie scoop or teaspoon, drop dough 2 inches apart on ungreased cookie sheet.
3. Bake 8 to 10 minutes or until set. Cool 3 minutes; remove from cookie sheet to wire rack. Serve warm or cool completely. Store tightly covered at room temperature.
Makes 36 cookies
Snickerdoodle Recipe (Kelly Childers)
1 tbs baking powder
2 tsp baking soda
1/4 tsp salt
1/4-1/2 tsp of cinnamon
1 c butter
2 c sugar
2 eggs
1tbs light corn syrup
2 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
start with
3tbs of sugar
1tsp of cinnamon
Preheat oven to 375
Cream the butter and sugar together. add eggs, corn syrup, and vanilla. mix the dry items together and the add them to the wet mixture. The dough then has to chill overnight, or at least for 4 hours...if you do not chill the dough the cookies will be flat and terrible to work with.
Roll dough in balls (about the size of a walnut). Roll them into you sugar/cinnamon topping. Place them on ungreased cookie sheet about 2.5 inches apart. Bake 10-12 minutes (this is what the original rec. said to do...I have found my oven makes them in 6 minutes 45 seconds or 7 minutes 30 seconds depending upon its mood...do not over bake these!) until the cookie is puffed up and the surface is slightly cracked.
Seriously though...find the best temp for your oven, it is better to under bake then over bake.
Vanishing Oatmeal Rasin Cookies (Matt Bogenhagen)
1 cup firmly packed brown sugar
1/2 cup granulated sugar
2 eggs
1 tsp vanilla
1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1 tsp baking soda
1 tsp ground cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon salt (optional)
3 cups Quaker Oats (quick or old fashioned uncooked)
1 cup SunMaid raisins
Heat oven to 350 degrees F
Beat margarine and sugars until creamy. Add eggs and vanilla, beat well.
Combine flour, baking soda, cinnamon and salt. Add to margarine mixture, and mix well.
Stir in oats and raisins, mixing well. Drop by rounded tablespoonfuls onto ungreased cookie sheet. Bake at 350 degrees F for 10-12 minutes or until light golden brown. Cool 1 minute on cookie sheet and then transfer to wire rack. Cool completely and store in airtight container.
Makes about 4 dozen 2 1/2 inch cookies.
Minty Chocolate Dipped Oreo Cookies (Heather Stephens)Get real! If you've been a reader of the FW blog for long enough, you know I can't cook. My daughter made my batch! :)
Dipping Chocolate
Candy Canes
Melt chocolate in double boiler until smooth. Dip Oreo cookie 1/2 way into chocolate making sure to coat the seam as well as both sides of the cookie...shake off excess chocolate. Sprinkle one side of the chocolate dipped cookie with crushed up candy canes and lay on a cookie sheet covered in parchment paper to harden. Put them in the freezer to speed up the process if you're in a hurry.
Rolo Pretzel Delights (Sallie Morgensen)
ROLO Chewy Caramels in Milk Chocolate
Pecan halves
Heat oven to 350°F. Line cookie sheet with parchment paper or foil.
Place one pretzel for each pretzel treat desired on prepared sheet. Top each pretzel with one unwrapped ROLO Chewy Caramel in Milk Chocolate.
Bake 3 to 5 minutes or until caramel piece begins to soften, but not melt. Remove from oven; top with either pecan half or additional pretzel. Cool completely.
Scotcharoos (Linda Schemel)
1 C Sugar
1 C light Karo Syrup
6 C Rice Krispies
1 pkg Butterscotch Chips
1-1/2 C Chocolate Chips
Spray 9 x 13 pan with cooking spray.
In large sauce pan, melt peanut butter, syrup and sugar until creamy. Add Rice Krispies. Stir well.
Meanwhile, melt chocolate and butterscotch chips in microwave. Be careful not to overcook them. I would start on 60-70% power for 2 min., then go 30-45 seconds at a time - keep stirring.
Pour Rice Krispie mixture in prepared pan, press til fairly smooth. Top with chocolate mixture, spread evenly. Chill for 20 minutes, then cut into bars.
Christmas Bark (Shelly Hook)
1 cup butter
1/2 cup light brown sugar
12 oz semisweet chocolate chips
1 cup chopped pecans
Preheat oven to 350
Place crackers in one layer on parchment paper on a baking sheet with sides.
Melt butter and brown sugar in a medium saucepan. Cook for 3 minutes stirring constantly. Pour butter/sugar mixture over the crackers. Spread evenly.
Bake for 15 minutes. Remove from oven and sprinkle chocolate chips on top. When they start to melt spread the chocolate evenly over the entire layer of crackers. Sprinkle chopped pecans on top.
Refrigerate 1 hour. Remove from refrigerator and crack into pieces.

You don't have to be addicted to a substance or behaviour to suffer from addiction.
Addiction has an impact on every member of a household, from the oldest members of the family to infants, toddlers and teens. When someone in your home has a drug or alcohol problem, every generation feels the consequences of that dependence, and everyone needs help dealing with these devastating effects.
You may be trying to cope with someone who has a problem. As a result, you may be anxious, confused, ashamed and exhausted.

Rex Ryan needs several things to happen for his team to make the playoffs. A New York Jets win over the Miami Dolphins is priority number one for the Jets in Week 17. It reveals much about how the Jets' season has gone that they enter their final game of the season as one-point underdogs.
For Miami, a win, and a Bills loss, would keep them out of the cellar and end the season on a high note after a rocky start. They are one-point favorites hosting the Jets this weekend. For the season, Miami is 8-7 against the spread. The Jets have a 6-9 record against the spread this year.
The over/under on this game is a meager 41 points. A struggling Jets offense has failed to top the 20-point threshold in its last two games. Picking games in Week 17 is tough enough, and this one is anybody's guess as you never know which version of these two teams will take the field.
For complete odds and lines info for Week 17, check out Odds Shark. For more on the Jets, visit Gang Green Nation. Check out the Phinsider for more on the Dolphins.
