The head football coach at Minnesota State, Mankato, was arrested Tuesday on suspicion of child pornography, sheriff's officials said.
Todd Hoffner, 46, was in custody on suspicion of using underage people in a sexual performance and possession of child pornography, Blue Earth County Sheriff's Capt. Rich Murry told The Mankato Free Press.
Hoffner had not been formally charged by Tuesday evening, and it was not immediately clear whether he had an attorney. His home phone number was disconnected.
Messages left for sheriff's officials and prosecutors were not immediately returned to The Associated Press.
Hoffner was escorted off the football practice field Friday and has been on leave from his coaching position since then, the university said in a statement. Spokesman Dan Benson added that a university investigation is pending.
"The University is not aware of any allegations affecting university students or program participants," Benson said in the statement.
Hoffner is in his fifth year as Minnesota State, Mankato's head football coach. He led the team to the playoffs in 2008 and 2009, and a share of the Northern Sun Intercollegiate Conference title in 2011.
He has a 34-13 record at Minnesota State, Mankato, and was named NSIC coach of the year in 2009. He was previously the offensive coordinator at the University of South Dakota.
He is married and has three children.

Adam Tuss, wtop.com
TYSONS CORNER - Slowly, deliberately and delicately, the final 380 ton aerial piece of the Silver Line puzzle fit into place Tuesday. It's a major milestone for the Dulles Rail project.
The span, made up of 12 custom-cast concrete segments, completes the aerial guideway that will carry Metro subway trains on the line. It marks the first time that a complete connection of the first phase of the Silver Line has been made from Falls Church, through Tysons and continuing to Reston.
"Everything has to fit together. At the end of the day we have to run a train across there," said Pat Nowakowski, head of the Dulles Rail project. "This is something we've been at for over two years now and it is nice to actually see it come to an end."
The first leg of the Silver Line, expected to open late next year, will have four stops in Tysons Corner.
In all, more than 2,700 reinforced, precast concrete segments, each weighing between 25 tons to 40 tons, have gone into the aerial structure.
In the planning stages of the Silver Line, there was often intense debate about whether the rail line should be above or below ground through Tysons.
"Whether people appreciate the beauty of an aerial structure, I'll leave that to the individual. But for us -- it is a beautiful thing today," said Nowakowski.

Best practices for UC Davis social media administrators
These best practices were developed to help community members who use social media for university purposes. Inevitably, personal and institutional voices will intermingle because that is the nature of social media. Here are ideas on how to navigate those waters with integrity and professionalism.
Have a plan
Have a plan for your social media site that addresses your unit's communication goals and how you will staff the work.
- What do you want to accomplish?
- How will you measure your success after six months or a year?
- How much time will you give to it?
- Have a backup administrator or two so the site can be maintained during vacations or unexpected absences.
- Do not launch a site and ignore it. An unmaintained site known for spam, aggressive members, profanity and ongoing solicitation may do long-term damage your office's — and UC Davis' — reputation.
Select appropriate profile images
- Choose profile images that convey your office/organization and ties to UC Davis. Please do not use the official UC or UC Davis seal for your profile image. This is reserved for official campus publications that represent UC Davis as a whole.
- Horizontal format logos can be problematic for Facebook. Be sure that the entire image (preferably including the UC Davis logo) fits into a square shape without cutting off any part or wording. But also don't make the image so small as to be unreadable. Choose a simple image that will fit the square format and be readable at very small sizes.
- Your profile image should be consistent with UC Davis' graphic standards.
Naming protocols
- When naming your social media accounts, use "UC Davis" not "UCD." It distinguishes us from other colleges and universities with the initials UCD. For example, with Twitter, start with "UCDavis," e.g., "UCDavisNews."
- Please avoid using abbreviations in your title. Some UC Davis' abbreviations (e.g., VMTH, RMI) are well known internally, but don't expect your broader social media audience to be as knowledgeable about, or patient with, terms that may seem to be undecipherable alphabet soup.
- If your department or unit name is too long to use in its full form, abbreviate as necessary, but be sure to use the full name and UC Davis in your bio or description.
How to build a community
Remember, social media is not a monologue about getting out your unit's marketing messages.
- People care about people and want to read relevant and interesting content that connects to them.
- Keep track of which topics elicit a lot of interest and which don't. You will learn what engages your audience and how to keep it interested in coming back to your site.
- Create content based on what readers know, want and need.
- Don't ignore requests for information.
- Develop a list of "quick" answers for frequently asked questions. You might develop the list into an FAQ on a website that you can link to in your social media.
- Link back to the university's and your group's websites as much as possible to further engage your followers. Use a web address shortening service that tracks clicks to determine which types of content are popular with your audience.
Posting frequency
Understand how frequently you should post.
- If you post too frequently or infrequently, you will lose followers.
- The accepted frequency varies by channel and audience, but, in general, aim for at least three to five posts per week. Posting more frequently is becoming an accepted practice as social media matures. You will have to judge by the reaction of your audience.
Be transparent and honest
- For blogs and microblogs (Twitter), identify yourself as a person affiliated with UC Davis if you are communicating on behalf of the university. If you are using a campus Twitter address, for instance, indicate in the "profile" the person behind the tweets.
- If you are stating your own opinion, be sure to clarify that it is your own, and not that of the university.
- To express political opinions, use your personal social media accounts, not a UC Davis account.
Respect and courtesy
In keeping with the Principles of Community, use social media to "promote open expression of our individuality and our diversity within the bounds of courtesy, sensitivity and respect." Do not engage in or condone discriminatory, defamatory or other detrimental conversations.
Moderating comments
Negative comments are a part of social media.
- Get to know the UC Davis Principles of Community.
- Do not delete negative comments that do not violate the Principles of Community or your page will lose its authenticity.
- Deal with criticism fairly and personably. Taking extra time to ask how you can help with a stated problem can have two important benefits: You are hearing how others perceive the university and you may be able to change problematic practices. By being a good listener, you can turn critics into valuable advocates.
- Sometimes it's best to let a negative comment alone and allow your social media community to moderate.
- Do not allow yourself to get into arguments with individuals online. On rare occasions, however, when arguments continue, you may need to remind people to be civil and agree to disagree.
- Do not allow profanity. A good rule of thumb is to see whether you would let a child or grandparent read the page or post.
Please contact email@example.com for information on how to handle questionable or threatening comments.
Understand your online communities
- Each social network has its own understood set of norms covering everything from frequency of posting to language used. Get to know the community you are joining and learn accepted uses of the site.
Understand privacy, safety and copyright
- Be aware that content posted on social media is available to the public, including the media.
- Do not post any personal identifying information about university community members or other sensitive facts and figures.
- Please remember that you are responsible for complying with federal copyright law for any material that you post on the Internet, including social networking sites. Read more about copyright issues.
About advertising and soliciting
- Social media platforms are not owned by the university but by companies who often use advertising to support their efforts. That means our social media users will see outside ads in and about UC Davis pages that we do not control. (For instance, ads are placed inside YouTube videos.) If you can find advertising-free social media — such with certain blog platforms — it would be preferable to use them — but often it is just part of the social media environment.
- For the advertising being placed on your pages as posts, however, you do have control. The issue is whether companies are posting as part of the community or are simply trying to make a sale. Administrators will have to make that judgment.

Last year, I had the pleasure of seeing Gerald Charles Dickens, the great-grandson of the author Charles Dickens, present a one-man performance of A Christmas Carol. Gerald clearly resembles his namesake, and his facial expressions as he brought to life the different characters in the story were priceless. But my favorite part of the evening was when Gerald embodied Mrs. Cratchit as she prepared to serve the Christmas pudding to the assembled Cratchit family. Here's the condensed version of the scene used by Charles Dickens himself in his dramatic readings:
"Mrs. Cratchit left the room alone, —too nervous to bear witnesses, — to take the pudding up, and bring it in.
"Suppose it should not be done enough! Suppose it should break in turning out! Suppose somebody should have got over the wall of the back yard, and stolen it, while they were merry with the goose, — a supposition at which the two young Cratchits became livid! All sorts of horrors were supposed.
"Hallo! A great deal of steam! The pudding was out of the copper. A smell like a washing-day! That was the cloth. A smell like an eating-house and a pastry-cook's next door to each other with a laundress's next door to that! That was the pudding! In half a minute Mrs. Cratchit entered, — flushed but smiling proudly, — with the pudding, like a speckled cannon-ball, so hard and firm, blazing in half of half a quartern of ignited brandy, and bedight with Christmas holly stuck into the top.
"O, a wonderful pudding! Bob Cratchit said, and calmly too, that he regarded it as the greatest success achieved by Mrs. Cratchit since their marriage. Mrs. Cratchit said that now the weight was off her mind, she would confess she had had her doubts about the quantity of flour. Everybody had something to say about it, but nobody said or thought it was at all a small pudding for a large family. Any Cratchit would have blushed to hint at such a thing."
And many a modern British family would not think of celebrating Christmas without a traditional pudding. But this pudding is not at all like what we think of as pudding in the United States—a creamy smooth, relatively bland desert. "Pudding" is the generic term for "dessert" in the U.K. Christmas pudding, though, is a specific dessert with a rich history. Though I confess I have never tasted this treat, from the typical ingredients used, I can conclude that it must be sweet, spicy, dense, and chewy. Last week, I blogged about mincemeat and its mystery ingredients. Christmas pudding (a.k.a. plum pudding because it originally contained plums) seems to be a recombination of many of the same ingredients—suet, dried fruits, candied fruit peel, and spices—held together with flour, breadcrumbs, and eggs. The mixture is formed into balls, wrapped in cloth, and aged for a few weeks, during which time it is basted with brandy or rum. It is then steamed or boiled to soften the texture. Just before serving, the dining room is darkened and the pudding doused with flaming liquor before being ceremoniously presented to appreciative oohs and ahs.
The plum pudding trade cards in my collection, which date to the 1870s, suggest that the role of carrying the pudding to the table in households of means was typically performed by a servant. Below, the king instructs his serving-man where to place the steaming dessert:
On this card, the bearer resembles a liveried footman:
The woman below appears to be a cook, with cheeks flushed from standing over a steaming copper pot:
Sometimes the task was assigned to a child, as on this trade card, which depicts either a servant boy or a wealthy child in period clothing:
The most nerve-wracking choice would be to entrust the flaming pudding to two small children in the family. Don't try this at home, kids:
If you are not inclined to light your food on fire this holiday, you'll find a simplified, flame-free version of a classic English Christmas pudding here (along with sources for a few harder-to-find ingredients). But why not try the real deal instead? The proof of the pudding is in the eating.

all in all im happy with this purchase
Very ergonomic, I'm just getting the hang if it, looking forward to when my bubba looks as comfy as the babies in the pictures from the instruction book!

- Chris Schwarz is the Tiger Woods of woodworking! Review by Jamie R. (from Tampa)
I don't know what that metaphor means either but both are damn good. I apologize for using profanity but it is difficult, perhaps impossible, to talk about Chris and his work without resorting to colorful language. As a ardent admirer and disciple of Saint Roy (a.k.a. Mr Underhill), I figured Chris to be a good risk, as Roy gave him the spotlight on such Woodwright Shop episodes as, "Gossamer Shavings" and that one where you learned there were three ways to saw something, called "classes." Like many others, I thought there were only two ways, "grandpa's way" which was fast and true, and my way which doglegs left before breaking off a piece. Notice how I managed to not mention the book until now. I learned that from storytellers like Roy and Chris. So buy the damn book already, and figure out for yourself why I gave it 5 stars. And finish that project of yours already, so you'll have time to read, "The Anarchist's Tool Chest" whne it arrives.

- Just started reading, can't put it down Review by Steven
This is a truly eye opening book, as a new wood worker - I hope that his tips will save me from myself and many mistakes.
A must have for me and I think anyone else just starting this fine hobby or past time.
(Posted on 9/7/2012)
- excellent narrative Review by Michael Langford (not a nickname)
Schwartz is clever, competent and engaging. This is the best "WHY TO" book I've read since Krenov. Start at the first page, sit back and enjoy the ride, or skip to Chapter 20. Copy p. 459, tack it up on your wall as a manifesto; then go out to the shop, sharpen your tools, forget about Chris Schwartz, and just BUILD something.
(Posted on 8/26/2012)
- Reasons why Review by Carlos Dominguez
This book is a excellent read with valuable information regarding tools and their selections. Most importantly it validated my reasons for becoming a woodworker and encouraged me to pass it forward.
(Posted on 1/19/2012)
- Buy this book! Review by John Passacantando
OK, I am trying to write a GIANT screaming hot review in a small space that I could cover with two first class stamps. I'd better get right to it, Christopher Schwarz's, The Anarchist's Tool Chest is fantastic. Seriously, it's honest to the bone. He writes with a powerful voice as though he is in the room. He's humble, funny and completely over the top. Sure, it's about the couple score tools he thinks you need to play your part in protecting the hand tool craft and then how to build the chest to hold those tools. That book alone would be worth the price. But he then nests this book into another, subtler story. This story is about self-reliance, resilience and freedom, something he calls aesthetic anarchism. Let me just put it this way. Sometimes it feels like all is lost. Like America is made up of cowards who ignore impropriety while hanging on for their little piece of baksheesh. And then we mistake a novel detailing little crummy lives, Jonathan Franzen's Freedom, for a great novel. Screw that, I was raised on Hemingway. I want bold lives, bold people, people worth reading about. People with guts. Schwarz is worth reading because he lives a live worth learning from. He acts from his heart and when he writes it sounds like a bell being rung that we can hear far across the land. Bravo! Mr. Schwarz, keep publishing. I intent to be a serial buyer.

Hollande and the 'Karcher moment' that wasn't
François Hollande says his style is the opposite of Nicolas Sarkozy's... Yet the media couldn't help drawing comparisons with his predecessor's style as Hollande visited a troubled suburb following a double shooting. In 2005 as Interior Minister, Sarkozy famously promised a resident that he'd clean the neighbourhood of its "scum". So how did Hollande deal with a similar moment?

Iris is cool, svelte, sophisticated.
She has the subtle mysterious beauty of a Hollywood actress from the 1940s, a Lauren Bacall with her faint smile and wise beguiling eyes. In a hotel bed naked, on a warm summer day in Yalta, the soft window light colours her red hair and Hegre's short visit with the movie camera is like the trailer to the feature film we would dearly love her to make.

Old habits die hard for Lewis Hamilton
We completely relate to this.
By March 24, 2013 / Photos by AFP/Getty Images
You know how it is when you change jobs. It's tough to get used to the new routine in the beginning.
After I started here at Road & Track, I admit to jumping on the wrong subway out of habit that first week, heading downtown from Grand Central towards Chelsea instead of up to Hearst's midtown HQ. It happens.
Only when it's me or you, there isn't a global television audience watching live. Like when it happened to Lewis Hamilton today in Malaysia:

4. I didn't realize this was a dress up meeting;
5. I am an artist.

text: A brilliant mix of Afro and deep funk styles – the kind of grooves you'd get if Fela Kuti hung out with The Meters in the late 60s! Budos Band recall the genius of 90s deep funk combo The Daktaris – and have a similar love of older African rhythms touched by a newer indie funk sound – a complexity in the group's well-arranged horn parts, but a simplicity to their rhythms that makes the album cook like some of our favorite classics from years back. Sax and trumpet lines are mixed nicely with heavy percussion and a fair bit of organ at the bottom – creating a murky groove that has a bit of New Orleans in the mix, but also has most of the instruments stepping along with the rhythm – in a very cool take on the Africa 70 sound. Tracks are all instrumental, and all incredible – and the record's one of the freshest we've heard from the deep funk underground in years – a second-generation set that gets way past simple copycat funk and into its own unique groove! Titles include "Budos Theme", "Ghost Walk", "King Charles", "Eastbound", "Across The Atlantic", "Up From The South", "TIBWF", and "Monkey See Monkey Do". © 1996-2014, Dusty Groove, Inc.

RICHMOND, Va. (AP) -- The contract for Virginia's only charter elementary school has been renewed.
Media outlets report that the Richmond School Board voted Monday night to renew the contract for the Patrick Henry School of Science and Arts for five years.
School system administrators had suggested renewing the contract for three years.
Patrick Henry officials say the longer term is needed to secure funding for a planned renovation of the building. The renovation will allow the school to expand enrollment from about 200 students to 350.

I read with great interest, and then with dismay, the letter to the editor from my friend Norman Gersman, attacking long time Great Neck resident Howard Weitzman who is a former mayor of Great Neck Estates and former County Comptroller. It is important for readers to understand that Norman was one of George Maragos' campaign operatives in 2009 and has held a series of County jobs ever since. Also, Norman refers so glowingly to the column by Mike Barry praising and defending Comptroller Maragos' record … without indicating that Barry is a well-known and consistent supporter of Republican officials and candidates.
In the interest of full disclosure, I serve as President of the Great Neck Democratic Club and am actively involved in Howard Weitzman's campaign to regain his position as County Comptroller.
After reading Norman's letter, and knowing his political leanings and employment history, I'm reminded of the adage that "you're entitled to your own opinions, but not to your own facts." In an effort to deflect attention from the horrendous state of the county's finances, and a lack of any notable achievements by Comptroller Maragos, Norman has concocted fanciful and baseless claims about the state of the County at the end of the Suozzi administration in 2009 and places the blame on Howard Weitzman. Aside from the fact that Comptrollers do not control the County's spending or revenue collections (if you accepted Norman's statements, then Comptroller George Maragos is responsible for the growing deficits the Mangano administration has created), the deficit that Mr. Maragos claims then Comptroller Weitzman left is a figment of his imagination.
There were no deficits in the County's 2009 financial statements signed off on by Comptroller Maragos. What does appear in the County's 2009 audited financial statements is a budget surplus of $2.6 million. In addition, after 13 bond rating upgrades during his time in office, the County was given a stable rating outlook by the rating agencies when Howard Weitzman left office. Today, four years later, after multiple bond rating downgrades, the County has been assigned a negative outlook by the same rating agencies. Who are you going to believe, Maragos, his supporters in the media and on the County payroll or the rating agencies? Facts count for a lot more than opinions.
