Mister Majestic I don't hold it against you for using BP. the idea you can boycott gasoline is idiotic when people even try to hold one company accountable. they will simply sell their product to other companies and make the same dime.

Thursday evening, Henry Johnson, who has been the head football coach at West Bolivar High School since 2000, officially became the head football coach at Clarksdale High School.
During Johnson's coaching tenure at WBHS, he led the Eagles to 13 straight playoff appearances and authored a career record of 142-32 for an impressive .816 winning percentage. More importantly, he led the Eagles to 10 straight region championships and two 2A State Titles (2007, 2011). Along with his coaching tenure, Johnson also played football at WBHS for the late Leland Young and was a member of the Eagles 1989 team that went 12-3 and advanced to the 3A State Championship game where the team lost to Magee 7-6.
Johnson, 39, said the decision to leave was one he needed to make.
"I had to make the decision," Johnson said. "It was a tough decision for me to make, to leave my hometown of Rosedale, but I had to move on to a bigger challenge."
Johnson will be leaving for a bigger school, as Clarksdale High School is 5A, while West Bolivar is 2A. Clarksdale has a storied history of its own winning three 4A State Championships (1997, 1998 and 2001) and appearing in the playoffs 26 total times in 4A and 5A. Clarksdale's program has been down as of late, recording four losing seasons over the last five years.
"Clarksdale has a rich tradition just like Rosedale (West Bolivar) did when I took over the program," Johnson added. "There's also less duties and less responsibilities than what I'm doing here."
Johnson's ultimate goal will be to lead the Wildcats to the 5A State Championship. Johnson said his coaching career has been a dream come true.
"I feel blessed to be able to have that opportunity," Johnson said. "I never thought in a million years that I would have been the coach at West Bolivar. Then, I never thought in a million years I would be the head coach at 5A Clarksdale. I just thank God that I have the opportunity to do that."
West Bolivar High School Athletic Willie Thomas said Johnson will be missed in Rosedale.
"He's done a lot for the program," Thomas said. "He did a great job with the kids, great motivator, two state championships, I don't think we can replace him. He will be hard to replace when it comes to that part of it. He meant a lot to our program. Myself, personally, I hate to see him go, but at the same time I have to support him in what he's doing. It's a decision he made. I wish him the best of luck. I know he'll do a good job, because he's a hard working young man."
Thomas said a decision on the new football coach for West Bolivar hasn't been made yet.
Thomas said a strong work ethic is the key for whoever takes over the program.
"The next person that comes in will have to work harder," Thomas said. "I think we'll be in more of a rebuilding year. The next person that comes in will have to work extremely hard."
Johnson said West Bolivar and the Rosedale community will always be near and dear to his heart.
"West Bolivar has been great to me and they pretty much gave me everything that I asked for," Johnson added. "I appreciate every thing they were able to do for me here."

The Global Intelligence Files
On Monday February 27th, 2012, WikiLeaks began publishing The Global Intelligence Files, over five million e-mails from the Texas headquartered "global intelligence" company Stratfor. The e-mails date between July 2004 and late December 2011. They reveal the inner workings of a company that fronts as an intelligence publisher, but provides confidential intelligence services to large corporations, such as Bhopal's Dow Chemical Co., Lockheed Martin, Northrop Grumman, Raytheon and government agencies, including the US Department of Homeland Security, the US Marines and the US Defence Intelligence Agency. The emails show Stratfor's web of informers, pay-off structure, payment laundering techniques and psychological methods.

President Obama to Travel to Kansas
WASHINGTON, DC - On Tuesday, December 6, President Obama will travel to
Osawatomie, Kansas where he will deliver remarks on the economy. The
President will talk about how he sees this as a make-or-break moment for
the middle class and all those working to join it. He'll lay out the
choice we face between a country in which too few do well while too many
struggle to get by, and one where we're all in it together - where
everyone engages in fair play, everyone does their fair share, and
everyone gets a fair shot. Just over one hundred years ago, President
Teddy Roosevelt came to Osawatomie, Kansas and called for a New
Nationalism, where everyone gets a fair chance, a square deal, and an
equal opportunity to succeed.
The arrival and departure of Air Force One is open to pre-credentialed

Federal prosecutors involved in escapee's case get protection
BY FRANK MAIN AND FRAN SPIELMAN Staff Reporters December 19, 2012 11:24AM
Joseph "Jose" Banks escaped from the Metropolitan Correctional Center at 71 W. Van Buren St. Last week, Banks told U.S. District Judge Rebecca Pallmeyer, "You'll hear from me!" after he was found guilty of bank robbery. | FBI photo

Even though he made an apparent threat to a judge last week, Joseph "Jose" Banks wasn't under extra security in the federal jail in downtown Chicago.
The convicted bank robber escaped from the Metropolitan Correctional Center early Tuesday with fellow bank robber Kenneth Conley. They apparently crawled through a hole bashed in their 17th-floor cell and slid down a rope fashioned from sheets.
Last week, Banks told U.S. District Judge Rebecca Pallmeyer, "You'll hear from me!" after he was found guilty of bank robbery. An apparent threat like that would typically land a prisoner in a special housing unit where he would be allowed out just one hour a day until authorities checked it out, said a source familiar with the jail's procedures.
The decision to house Banks in the general jail population raises questions about the security there, the source said. Indeed, Pallmeyer and the federal prosecutors in Banks' case are now being given special protection because of the apparent threat.
On Wednesday, authorities said a videotape from a private surveillance camera showed the robbers fleeing in a cab on Congress Parkway around 2:40 a.m. Tuesday.
Officials continued the manhunt Wednesday and the FBI offered a $50,000 reward for information leading to the escapees' capture.
On Wednesday, the head of the national jail guards union and Chicago Police Supt. Garry McCarthy raised questions about the escape, but federal prison officials didn't have many answers.
Dale Deshotel, president of the Council of Prison Locals 33, said the escape raises key concerns about whether there was enough staffing at the jail and whether it was an "inside job" that involved a bribed jail employee. He also wondered whether jail officials assigned anyone to conduct regular patrols outside the facility to look for signs of an escape.
McCarthy said the daring breakout will almost certainly result in disciplinary action — and it should.
"There's probably some sort of a systematic problem, and I'm sure that they will address it," he said.
Banks and Conley were accounted for at a 10 p.m. Monday head count. Jail employees discovered the escape at 7 a.m. Tuesday. It's unclear what happened during the usual head counts at midnight, 3 a.m. and 5 a.m.
Ed Ross, spokesman for the U.S. Bureau of Prisons, said escapes from "secured facilities" like the MCC are rare.
"From time to time, we have inmates who walk away from camps, but those are not considered secured facilities, and they don't have fences and perimeter patrols," he said.
Ross said the last escape from a secured federal facility was in 2006, when convicted murderer Richard McNair busted out of the U.S. penitentiary in Pollock, La.
Ross said he couldn't provide details of the circumstances surrounding Tuesday's escape.
In 1985, two inmates engineered a similar breakout from the MCC. They smuggled a barbell from a workout area into their sixth-floor cell and punched a hole in the cinder-block wall. They used a cord connected to a floor buffer to rappel down the wall to the plaza below.
Last year, a Chicago narcotics kingpin testified about several glaring security breaches at the MCC. Saul Rodriguez told a jury he recruited his wife and an inmate to smuggle a cellphone into the jail. He also said he used his job as a jail orderly to get close to a Mexican drug cartel leader who wanted government witnesses killed.

Channel 13 News (Video Sidebar): How our Orlando ADHD camps & groups help students with Social Skills.
Our Total Life Counselors in the News
Who should Attend? This Summer adventure based camp in the Orlando area is for students that may lack assertion, poor self esteem, low self confidence or have social skills issues with their peer group. This Social Skills Summer Camp is great for students with Low Self-Confidence, Anxiety, ADHD or ADD, Aspergers, Pervasive Developmental, Autistic Spectrum Disorder (ASD), and High Functioning Autism as all of these diagnoses tend to be behind socially by showing some or all of the following social delays.
15 Symptoms or Tips to Identify Social Delays
If you can answer yes to two or more of these items about your student they may need help to connect socially with their peers and to prepare for the real world. Here are a few symptoms to look for:
- Doesn't recognize non-verbal cues
- Gets in peers personal space
- Annoys to get attention because they do not know how to get it another way
- Low self confidence
- Poor eye contact
- Only interested in themselves rather than taking an interest in their peers
- Talks too much
- Lacks assertion
- Impulsive or blurts out responses
- Tries too hard to make friends laugh – thinks humor will make them friends
- Reacts to teasing and does not know how to roll with conflict
- Has a need for justice & fairness and judges peers
- Isolates or withdraws from peers
- Always wants to be first or wants to play what they want
- Kids do not call for play dates or to hang out!
What is the Leadership & Social Skills Camp Experience!
- The Camp is limited to 20 Students per week and will blend in with Camp Wewa's students (between 100-200 campers per week).
- They will be assigned cabins with same age campers (i.e. 13 year old TLC clients will be in a cabin with 13 year old Camp Wewa Campers). We blend our clients into the camp so we can see how they do in an age appropriate environment rather than put them in a camp where all the kids struggle socially. If we put them in a camp where all the kids struggle socially then this would not simulate a real life situation and may not be effective.
- Students will have a screening to determine their Leadership and Social Skills needs.
- When the student arrives at the camp they will be greeted by a Masters Level Counselor/Student to review their goals.
- Our Masters Level Counselors will wear a YMCA Camp Counselor Shirt & Blend in with the Camp Staff so your child will not be singled out.
- Each of our TLC Counselors will be assigned 3-5 students, and Observe the students interactions.
- The TLC Counselor will then discretely address inappropriate responses, boundaries issues, social problems, etc. ideally when it happens and suggest more appropriate ways to redirect their behavior.
- Each day our team will review each student objectives and how they are progressing toward their goals as discuss plans on how to help them move toward their goals.
- Students will also have an additional 5-6 hours on the Ropes course for Team Building and Experiential Learning in comparison to the Camp Wewa students. Corporations pay $500-$600 per person for 6 hours on a Ropes Course!
- Camp Wewa counselors will tell other campers that inquire about why the TLC kids get more time on the course will communicate that TLC is "Total Leadership Camp" and their parents paid more for them to have more time on the course.
- For an additional fee over the next 1-2 weeks after the camp an appointment can be scheduled to review the progress for your student and make additional recommendations to build on their success.

Why Use a Ropes Course?
- ROPES COURSES are "Challenge by Choice" which means we do not force kids to do something they do not want to do, but with encouragement and affirmation from their peers kids and adults push themselves to do more than they thought they would do.
- Ropes courses continue to gain recognition as the experiential learning accelerates insight into trust, healthy communication, friendships, and leadership.
- The Ropes Program utilizes various initiatives to challenge participants physically, mentally, emotionally and socially.
- We include both Low Elements, which are close to the ground, and High Elements, which can be up to 40 feet high.

Camp was uber-awesomeness amazing fun times. Thanks for
doing the camp "truly one of, if not, the greatest week of my life.He had a really great week, thank you very much to Jim and
Seth and all you very special caring people. Jim, you are an angel here on
Earth doing very important work. We are lucky to have you in our lives!"Tommy (Thomas as he now prefers) is doing awesome! You would be so amazed to see God's work in progress. Your leadership camp has changed Tommy's life!
He really enjoyed summer camp… I heard descriptions of all the
different stations on the ropes course and which he did and didn't do, but
in particular about the vertical wall…. and how it was the hardest and how
you "really had to work as a team to get everyone up and over the top and
how it was really hard but they did it! The best story was about his
distractible and kind of stubborn horse who would not follow directions at
first… when I asked what he did, he explained that as they got to know
each other better, he started to do what I wanted him to… but he still
kept looking over there because he has a short attention span…. when I
asked why over there? he said come here and i will show you…. well, over
there is where the donkeys and a couple of other animals were housed and his
horse was more interested in them than what he was supposed to be
doing…what a lesson for him in the car, on the way home he also shared
about some of the talks and activities they participated in, the other
boys, he considered basically all the boys in his dorm group as friends,
vs. being the kid who only wants one or two good friends and insists on
keeping a distance with all others….

Progresso sent me a few soups to try out and review. I decided to go with a flavor that was NOT chicken, and so reached for Progresso Light Italian Style Meatball Soup. This soup is 1 Weight Watchers Point and the packaging points out that has 33% less calories than regular ready-to-serve soups.
I must say this soup was delightful. After tasting the first spoonful, I thought, "I need to add a little salt," But nnowing that I tend to consume way too much salt than is good for me, I just kept eating. You know what - this needs no salt, no nothing. There is a pleasant tomato flavor from the broth - not too strong, just a little more than a hint and enough to say hello! The meatballs were small but numerous, along with the penne & vegetables. A note on the vegetables though - as usual they were bland and indistinct ... similar to a few other Progresso Light Soups I reviewed recently over at CalorieCount.com. But I still loved the flavor of the soup.
Each 1 cup serving of Progresso Light Italian Style Meatball Soup provides 80 calories from 2 grams of total fat, 20% of the daily value of sodium (480 mg), 2 grams of fiber, 5 grams of sugar and 3 grams of protein.
This is one of my favorite Progresso Light Soup varieties. I have bought Progresso soups for $1.50 and $2.50, so the price is reasonable and I would buy this one again. I had this for lunch with a Lean Cuisine Chicken Spinach and Mushrooms Panini and I was quite satisfied.

Doug Ohlemeier, Eastern EditorAs Florida strawberry growers lay their bedding and transplant their plants for their winter production, a new threat to their marketing window is emerging.
This threat, however, isn't a pest or disease.
Some growers are viewing Mexico as a potential threat.
Ted Campbell, executive director of the Dover-based Florida Strawberry Growers Association, said Mexico added 10 million flats of production, which equates to retailers absorbing 1.5 million to 2 million flats a week during the season.
Campbell's not upset at Mexico, though.
Instead, he wants to find ways to differentiate Florida production, and the answer to him is to better market Florida fruit and compete in the free marketplace on the basis of quality.
"We could be collateral damage and will be under the bus if we can't efficiently market our fruit," Campbell said.
"Instead of spending money on lawyers fighting each other legally, we would prefer to spend our money driving more consumption so that everyone's product gets eaten. That's the best of both worlds. We're all working for the same endgame. What we want is the American market share. The best way to do that is to increase consumption."
Retailer support is necessary to accomplish that.
A former retailer himself, Campbell says Florida's strawberry industry is looking at connecting with retailers and telling them growers need help and support from them.
Campbell said breeders and growers are working hard to improve Florida's berry flavor attributes, which he says will help encourage more retailers to place domestic product on their shelves.
For retailers to merchandise Florida fruit, growers must do their part by packing high-quality berries.
Campbell said Florida used to call itself the winter strawberry capital. However, he points to production gains in Mexico, Spain and even Southern California.
"Without a strong Florida marketing program, we will continue to lose market share," Campbell said.
"We can spend a million dollars a year on research to improve production, but when supply exceeds demand, we all know what happens. If we can't increase consumer demand for profitable levels of growing Florida berries, all that wonderful research improvement may just be helping someone else."
Gary Wishnatzki, president and chief executive officer of Wish Farms, Plant City, Fla., agrees it's a matter of producing a quality product.
"There's always going to be competition, whether it's Mexico or California," Wishnatzki said.

[Russell Preston Brown, Sr Creative Director:] Hello. My name is Russell Preston Brown
from Adobe Systems, and these are my six favorite PhotoShop CS6 Extended features
here today in this tutorial.
Okay, let's get started.
Of course it's going to start with 3D, one of the features found in PhotoShop CS6 Extended.
What I love about this is the easy way in which I can address a 3D object
and, in this case, a 3D, extruded text object.
Check this out. I can select the exact sides of this 3D object and interactively move it
in a much easier way from the past. But check this out.
I'm going to go ahead and hide my current view of this
and go over to my 3D preferences and select on my light sources.
Now, I've always wanted the ability to click directly on the shadow and interact with it
just like this--so fantastic.
A really great way to design with text and shadows.
Next, speaking of text, let's go over to my text tool and go in here,
and you can see that I can go in and select my text, and up here in my options bar,
I now have the ability to warp this live 3D text.
Here are the defaults. I'm going to go in an add an arc. Check it out.
My 3D text is now warping I can still move it. I can still move the shadow. Let's click OK.
Then let's go right up here, and we can continue this process of working with text,
because I can bring in my text dialogue here,
and I can go in and change the actual font that I'm using.
In this case, I'm going to switch to Rochwell standard.
I still have the ability to edit this text in every way and move its shadow. Moving on.
Let's go right here to my next favorite feature, and that has to do with Camera RAW support.
We're now using Adobe Camera RAW 7.0.
I'm going to double click on this smart object here that I've placed inside of PhotoShop CS6
to reveal my Camera RAW controls.
We have a new support here--2012 support for processing images.
I'm going to go ahead and apply my camera RAW settings that I worked on earlier--just like that.
So I went from this overexposed image to this image, where I've recovered the highlight and shadow detail.
Check this out. I love the ability to go into this new version of Adobe Camera RAW
and adjust the highlights separated from the shadows
in a really almost HDR-like effects on this.
Take your old images and make them come to life again with these great new magical features.
I also love the ability to go in and address localized controls.
I can now go in and brush in the sharpness and noise reduction across the image.
All new, all fantastic. Okay. Let's move on.
I'm going to move to Adaptive Wide Angle.
Now, you've had wide-angle images in the past,
and you could apply a default set of adjustments, a profile,
over this wide-angle image, but this is fantastic.
I can go up here to the filter menu, and now down to adaptive wide angle, right here.
Bringing this open allows me to address just the areas that I want to work on,
and it lets me straighten curved lines.
When I brought this image in, it immediately identified that this was a fish-eye 15 mm lens
from my 5D Mark 2.
So it's looking at the metadata.
It then addresses and applies all of the necessary presets and profiles for that lens.
I can draw this line and instantly straighten it.
Not only that, I can assign that as a perfect horizontal line,
and then, once again, go back in and assign other horizontal lines to really start to straighten it like this.
I still have that great quality of the the 3D lens, but I can go in and control these lines.
For example, this line looks a little bit too curved.
I can straighten that up.
I can go in here and assign just the areas I want to but still leaving some of that 3D quality
of the scene that comes about with that lens. Unbelievable.
Amazing controls with adaptive wide-angle support.
Then to finish this off, scale this up just like this, and maybe go in with some content-aware fill
to correct this area up above.
Okay. My next great feature here in PhotoShop CS6 has to be Blur Gallery.
Now let's take this image, and let's do some really great blur techniques to it.
Here under my filter menu and down to "Blur," I have my "Blur Gallery"--
field blur, which has multiple points of blur, iris, which then comes in from a center point
like an iris, and then tilt-shift, my favorite.
Let's apply a tilt-shift here.
You can see it instantly applies the tilt-shift, and I can go in here and instantly adjust
with these great new controls the amount of blur.
Not only that, I can go in and adjust the range of the blur right here.
But this is the best--let's hide this, and you can see this miniature Italian town taking place right here.
Great, great effect.
I can see this in a preview model like this, still within this dialogue.
I can also see and preview the mask, as you see here,
and I can control the mask of the blurred region interactively while I'm viewing it
and then go back here and see the results. Fantastic.
But of course, there's more.
Over here under "Blur Effects," many times I want to add some of the effects that happen
with lenses, like the bokeh effect that will happen specular highlights.
I can go in and enhance that and colorize it, as you can see here.
I'm going to really move this over to the right.
You can see the specular highlights and how they behave--
so a really great simulation of how lenses behave in a situation like this. Cool.
Let's cancel from this and go to my next favorite PhotoShop CS6 feature,
content-aware move.
If I go over here and select my content-aware move tool, new to these set of tools--right here,
I can then move an object in a scene. Now, there are no layers.
Nothing up this sleeve. Nothing up that sleeve.
A single-layered file, and I want to move the tree a little bit to the left.
I don't want to go through the trouble of cloning behind the tree.
I just want to slide it over to the left and automatically have it fill in where the tree was.
Now check this out--I'm going to go over here and select this watermark
from the iStockphoto library right here.
Say, for example, you've placed your watermark into your image.
It's in the left-hand corner, and you've flattened your image, but you need to move it.
At the last minute-quickly, use the content-aware move tool.
You slide it over here. It doesn't get better than this.
When it fills in where the logo was and moves your logo to the new position--unbelievable.
Okay. To close this all off--this great presentation, let's talk about video support.
Now, video support is now inside of PhotoShop CS6.
It has moved from PhotoShop CS6 extended, right into everybody's reach
here inside of PhotoShop CS6.
Okay. Let's take a look at this.
I'm going to bring up my timeline right here.
Now, I've imported all of my video clips here ahead of time, and I've also imported sound.
If you cast your eyes right here, one of the features I really like
is the fact that sound is on its own track now.
I have the ability to view this in a similar way that I'd see it in
Adobe Premiere or even After Effects--my own track for audio.
Also over here under my layers, you'll notice that all of my video tracks
are contained within a new set of items called a "Video Group."
Okay. Let's get right down to the basics here.
If I click on a video clip--I'd like to edit that clip.
I click and hold, and I can now preview the exact edit location within this clip and then stop.
But did you see that also? My end point automatically moved to the exact new end point.
It's thinking along with me and resets that.
I can also go in and right-click and set up an exact
time limit for this, hit my enter key just like that.
Now I'm going to finish this off with the ultimate--right here, the greatest feature
has to be the new ability to drag and drop fade effects.
I'm going to select a cross fade right here
and simply drag it on top of the intersection between two of my video clips.
It automatically adds a fade right into that position.
I'll continue adding a fade to my other clips just like this,
and let's finish off with a fade-to-black at the end. You always have to have a fade-to-black.
There we have it.
Now all I do is play this video so we have our sound.
We have our transitions that you saw there. All three of my transitions happening in this.
Then the final bit will then fade to black at the end of my video.
Wow. Look at that. Fantastic support for video here inside of PhotoShop CS6.
Great features that you just saw. Those are just a few of my favorite features.
There's a lot more. Take a look. Give them a try.

To sign up for the training, contact Judy Phillips, Director of Operations and Program Services, at (601) 366-9474 ext. 1-302 or email firstname.lastname@example.com. Light snacks will be served.
For those who are unable to attend in person, a conference call will allow access by dialing 888-210-1669 with participant code 8215474.
Training will cover the wish granting process, important things to know when granting wishes, different types of wishes, how to handle particular situations, lot of stories on what makes wish granting such a worthwhile and heartwarming experience, and more.
Catherine Simmons, development and communications coordinator, said, "Every part of this job is fulfilling. It changes the way people look at things."
Judy Phillips, director of operations and program services, said, "We have granted 21 wishes in the Delta in the last 1? years. In Sunflower and Bolivar Counties, we have granted 5 wishes.
"We currently have 18 volunteers in the Delta. — five are in Bolivar County and two are in Sunflower County, " says Phillips.
There are four types of wishes: I wish to go; I wish to have; I wish to meet; and I wish to be.
"Most popular wishes are to go to Disney World and to go on shopping sprees," said Simmons. "One child wanted to go to a dude ranch."
Children from age 2? to 18 can be granted a wish if they have a life threatening medical condition. The wishes enrich the human experience with hope, strength and joy.
According to a recent press release, "Volunteers are the hands and feet of the organization and have the opportunity to visit with wish kids in their own areas, interview the child and families, and help orchestrate a wonderful experience that our wish kids will remember forever."
"A volunteer can expect a very rewarding experience with incredible kids and families. I am always touched by the strength the families have. I encourage anyone who wants to make a difference to attend the training Monday and be a volunteer with the Make-A-Wish Foundation," said Simmons

Getting more bang for your buck
Good news:
If you don't use your coupons before they expire, they're still worth the money you paid for them for an extra three months.
GrabOne FaceValue gives you another three months after your coupons expire, making it even easier to enjoy businesses all over New Zealand.
How does it work?
- A coupon is valid up until and including the expiry date printed on the coupon.
- If you don't use it before the expiry date for whatever reason, the coupon retains the value you paid for it for an additional three months.
- This means you can turn up to the business up to three months after the coupon has expired and put the money you spent to buy that coupon towards the service or experience printed on your coupon.
For example, if you spend $50 on a $100 dining voucher but don't use it before the expiry date, you will still be entitled to $50 worth of food and beverage services at that business for an additional three months.
The same goes for coupons without monetary values assigned to them. For example, if you buy a bungy jump deal but don't use it before the expiry date, you can still put the money you spent on the coupon towards a bungy jump, for another three months. Remember, the FaceValue of your coupon can only be put toward the service or experience printed on your coupon.
A few things to note:
- FaceValue applies to all deals that display the FaceValue icon. If the icon is not on a deal, FaceValue does not apply.
- It's always best to use your coupon before the expiry date, so you get the most value for your money. And if you're a bit forgetful, we now automatically remind you if your coupons are about to expire.
- During the FaceValue period, your coupon can only be put towards the service stated on the coupon.
- If the offer is seasonal, like a seasonal menu or chimney sweep service, the FaceValue of your coupon can be put towards a similar offer at the merchant's discretion.
- FaceValue does not apply to product deals, travel and accommodation-related deals, or time-dependent event deals.
- The conditions on your coupon still apply during the FaceValue grace period.

Say: "All favor is in God's Hand, and He gives it to whoever He wills..."
"God is All-Encompassing All-Knowing.He picks out for His mercy whoever He wills.God's fover is indeed immense. (Qur'an,3:73-74)
Prophet Solomon (pbuh)
Prophet Solomons (pbuh) Superior Moral CharacterHaving talked about Prophet Solomon's (pbuh) God-given knowledge, glorious kingdom and mighty army, we will now discuss one of his most important characteristics: his superior morality. Throughout his life, he invited people to live a moral life that would please God and served as a role model of deep faith and high moral character. He Always Turned toward God… What an excellent servant! He truly turned to his Lord. (Qur'an, 38:30) The Qur'an reveals that Prophet Solomon (pbuh) constantly turned toward God, prayed to Him, and revealed all of his desires to Him. Although he lived at a time when idolatry was widespread, he never put anything on the same level with God. Rather, he only desired to please God and make His religion supreme. Therefore, he sought the approval of no other person or creature. For example, he invited the sun worshippers of Saba to abandon their ancestral belief system and submit to God. We tested Solomon and placed a lifeless body on his throne. Then he returned. He said: "My Lord, forgive me and give me a kingdom the like of which will never be granted to anyone after me. Truly, You are the Ever-Giving." (Qur'an, 38:34-35) Whenever Prophet Solomon (pbuh) encountered any difficulty, anxiety, or blessing, he immediately turned toward God. He remembered God in every conversation and made every decision with His name in mind. God tested Prophet Solomon (pbuh) in various ways, but his response was always morally good. For example, as the above verse shows, during one test the first thing that came to his mind was to pray to God and take refuge in His generous mercy. … [Solomon] said: "This is part of my Lord's favor, to test me to see if I will give thanks or show ingratitude. Whoever gives thanks only does so to his own gain. Whoever is ungrateful, my Lord is Rich Beyond Need, Generous." (Qur'an, 27:40) Prophet Solomon (pbuh) displayed this moral character in times of distress as well as in times of success and victory, for he was a humble servant who knew his own helplessness before God. He realized that every success, like every difficulty, was a test from God. He Always Gave Thanks to God… "Work, O family of David, in thankfulness!" But very few of My servants are thankful. (Qur'an, 34:13) As He did with Prophet David (pbuh), God bestowed upon Prophet Solomon (pbuh) blessings that no one had ever received. God willed him to use the mercy, which He bestowed upon him, as a means of thanking and remembering Him. In return, Prophet Solomon (pbuh) was always thankful, humble, and sincere, and directed all of his deeds toward God because he knew that he would have to answer for his responses to those blessings on the Day of Judgment. "My Lord, keep me thankful for the blessing You have bestowed on me and on my parents; keep me acting rightly, pleasing You; and admit me, by Your mercy, among Your servants who are righteous."(Qur'an, 27:19) The Qur'an relates that after Prophet Solomon (pbuh) heard the ants' conversation, he immediately turned toward God in prayer. Knowing that God was the real possessor of the blessings he had received, he showed that the sole purpose of his every word and deed was to gain His good approval. God gave him the best reward for his sincere and faithful morality and announced these good tidings in Qur'an 38:40: "He will have nearness to Us and a good Homecoming." In another verse, He stated: "We gave knowledge to David and Solomon who said: 'Praise be to God, Who has favored us over many of His servants who are believers'" (Qur'an, 27:15). Moreover, when Prophet Solomon (pbuh) saw this female ant's compassion for her community, he immediately thought of his mother and father. This reaction shows that people should thank God for the blessings that came to them through their parents (e.g., nurture from infancy, upbringing, shelter, and education), because these blessings actually come from God. Prophet Solomon (pbuh) Loved AnimalsWhen, toward the close of day, nobly-bred, swift-footed steeds were brought before him, he [Solomon] said: "Truly do I love the love of good because of the remembrance of my Lord." — [repeating these words as the steeds raced away, ] until they were hidden by the veil [of dust]. (Qur'an, 38:31-32) Obviously, Prophet Solomon (pbuh) devoted a certain amount of time to these horses, which gladdened the hearts of those who enjoyed watching their skillful and elegant gaits and postures. As he observed them, he praised God. All believers should strive for this exemplary behavior, for they should remember God when meeting with any form of beauty because of the profound effect that any form of beauty will form in their spirits. This effect comes from the believers' deep love of God. Most of those who are far removed from the beautiful things that religious morality brings are reserved and become careless and insensitive. However, as we clearly see in Prophet Solomon's (pbuh) behavior, Muslims think deeply, are extremely sensitive toward the beautiful things around them, and take pleasure in art and beautiful things. They are aware of God's blessings, know how to enjoy them, and thank Him for them. In any case, as God says: "Say: 'Who has forbidden the fine clothing God has produced for His servants and the good kinds of provision?' Say: 'They are [lawful] in the life of this world unto all who have believed—to be theirs alone on the Day of Rising'" (Qur'an, 7:32), the beautiful things in the world are created for Muslims. [Solomon said:] "Return them to me!" And he set about stroking their shanks and necks. (Qur'an, 38:33) Prophet Solomon (pbuh) expressed his love in both word and deed. Here, we see most clearly his power to express his love. Generally, people do not always express their love and affection properly. In fact, they usually shrink away from expressing these feelings. A person's ability to show sincere affection toward someone else is a gift from God. In the Qur'an, God says that he gave this ability to Prophet John (pbuh), one of His faithful servants: [We said to him:] "John, take hold of the Book with vigor." We gave him judgment while still a child. And tenderness and purity from Us—he guarded against evil. (Qur'an, 19:12-13)
Prophet Solomon's (pbuh) Attitude toward Possessions… "Truly do I love the love of good because of the remembrance of my Lord."(Qur'an, 38:32) As this verse says, Prophet Solomon (pbuh) praised God for the splendor of his wealth and stated that he loved his possessions because they made him remember God. We must consider his words carefully, for other verses assert that the love of possessions may lead people astray. For example: "Truly, man is ungrateful to his Lord and indeed he bears witness to that. Truly, he is fierce in his love of wealth" (Qur'an, 100:6-8). Wealth and love of possessions harden the hearts of most people and alienate them from religion, because they think that they have earned their possessions through their own efforts. For this reason, they become arrogant and feel self-sufficient. Forgetting that they need God, they become wrapped up in their ambition to amass more wealth. Instead of living to serve God, they live to accumulate wealth. Muslims must avoid this trap by abandoning their greed and recognizing Him as the true source of their wealth and possessions. A calligraphic inscription by Mahmud Jalaladdin in jali-thuluth script. "O God, provide my daily necessities in the best way for me, and grant that I may be given to sinless good works loved for their morality and humaneness." Prophet Solomon (pbuh) showed us how Muslims should look at wealth and possessions: Aware of their true owner, Muslims must consider their wealth and possessions as no more than a means to remember God. Muslims who realize this great truth do not grow arrogant or haughty when wealth and possessions are given to them, or worry about losing them. Rather, they thank God for what He has given and use it in accordance with God's will and to win His good pleasure. They regard God's bestowal of great wealth, power, and magnificence upon them as a blessing and a means for proving their sincere belief in Him. As a result, their love, fear, and respect for God will grow even greater. Given these facts, faithful and devout Muslims are the best guardians of wealth, possessions, and power. One such person was Prophet Solomon (pbuh) who, despite the fact that no one had as much power as he did, was always sincere, approached God with deep reverence, and served His religion. From this verse, we learn that people can love their possessions, provided that they are used in the hope of gaining His good pleasure and proclaim His eternal power. He [Solomon] said: "My Lord, forgive me and give me a kingdom the like of which will never be granted to anyone after me. Truly, You are the Ever-Giving."(Qur'an, 38:35)
Prophet Solomon's (pbuh) Special KnowledgeWe gave knowledge to David and Solomon, [both of whom] said: "Praise be to God, Who has favored us over many of His servants who are believers." This is indeed a clear favor. (Qur'an, 27:15)
We tested Sulayman and placed a lifeless body on his throne. Then he made repent. (Qur'an, 38:34)

Despite struggling throughout the game, East Side head coach Leroy Cotton managed to pull enough out of his team, particularly from his bench to help spark the Trojans to a 60-49 victory.
"This was a grind-it-out game for us tonight. I'm always proud of their effort, even when we make a lot of mistakes and play bad. We hung in there and were able to get the job done," said Cotton.
In the first half, East Side's starting five started the game very slow and flat. Cotton recognized this and toward the end of the first quarter with the Trojans trailing 7-4, he made substitutions.
One of the key substitutions was freshman forward Bobby Jones, Jr. who helped sparked the Trojans with strong play. Jones scored 10 points in the first half to help give East Side a 20-15 halftime lead.
"They (reserves) have been getting better all year and working hard in practice," Cotton said. "My veterans didn't come out and play hard so I decided to sit them and try the young guys and they answered the call. They played great and gave us the spark we needed."
The Trojans came out in the third and outscored Leflore 8-3 to start the period for a 28-18 lead. Over the next few minutes Leflore answered back as they outscored East Side 13-2 to take a 31-30 lead. Leflore led East Side 35-34 at the end of the third quarter.
LeAndrew Banyon started the fourth quarter with a three-point ball to give East Side a 37-35 lead and the Trojans never looked back as they made clutch baskets and went 12-of-14 from the free throw line in the quarter to end the contest.
Jon Paul Davis led East Side with 14 points, followed by Charles Jackson with 12, Jones with 10 and Brant Williams with nine.
The Trojans will now play J.J. McClain at 8:30 p.m. Thursday.
Ruleville Boys 72, Leland 64
The Ruleville Central Tigers had to dig deep to pull out the eight-point victory over the Leland Cubs.
Ruleville held a 37-26 lead over Leland at halftime, but sharp shooting from the Cubs kept them in the ball game throughout the second half.
Leland had their chances, but trailing by three points at 63-60, the Cubs' Mose Dixon could not convert on two lay-ups in traffic that could have swung the momentum of the game.
During that time, the Tigers kept plugging away and closed out the game outscoring Leland 9-3 to take the victory.
Demarcus Bracey and Xavier Appleberry led the way for Ruleville with 23 points each, followed by Tyquan Rule and Kordarius Phillips with eight points each.
The Tigers (16-6) will now take on Velma Jackson at 5:30 p.m. Thursday.
Ruleville Girls 56, Leland 16
It was an easy day for the Ruleville Central Lady Tigers as they took care of the Leland Lady Cubs by 40-points.
Robrieka Finn led Ruleville with 15 points, followed by Brunetta Cockrell and Shakira Singleton scored 12 points each in the win.
The Lady Tigers (15-7) will take on Velma Jackson at 4 p.m. Thursday.
J.J. McClain Girls 64, Leflore County 46
The Lady Mustangs of J.J. McClain played a strong game as they defeated the Leflore County Lady Tigers.
Carmiesha Nalls scored 30 points to lead J.J. McClain in the win. Shanecia Beckworth led Leflore with 13 points.
McClain will play the East Side Trojanettes at 7 p.m. Thursday.
