CANTON, Ohio (AP) - Rookie Devonte Holloman's 75-yard interception return with a tipped pass keyed the Dallas Cowboys' 24-20 victory over the Miami Dolphins in the Hall of Fame game Sunday night that opened the NFL's preseason.
The sixth-round pick from South Carolina was perfectly situated when rookie Chad Bumphis had Matt Moore's pass go off his hands in the second quarter. It was the biggest play for a Dallas defense switching to a 4-3 alignment under new coordinator Monte Kiffin.
But the Cowboys controlled most of the game one night after their former offensive lineman, Larry Allen, and former coach, Bill Parcells, were inducted into the hall.
Quarterback Tony Romo, coming off back surgery to remove a cyst, sat out for Dallas. So the Cowboys turned to their ground game - and ground down Miami as few regulars got onto the field.

Authorities say a retaining wall collapse in East Texas has left two construction workers dead and another hurt.
The Cherokee County Sheriff's Office says the industrial accident happened Monday near Lake Jacksonville.
Sheriff James Campbell says the workers were trying to install reinforcing steel when a 30-foot section of the concrete and rock wall fell. Campbell says the wall is about 12 to 15 feet tall and a foot thick.
Investigators say 60-year-old Donald Starling and 68-year-old Hollis Morris, both of Tyler, were dead at the scene. Officials say the older man's son, 45-year-old Rodney Morris of Tyler, suffered injuries not believed to be life-threatening.
Jacksonville is 115 miles southeast of Dallas.

As parents might have expected, eighth-graders at Smith Middle School in Ramsey, NJ are using their iPads as quick reference tools, to look up facts, conversions, and concepts during and after classes. But, the devices, which were handed out to all eighth graders at the school last October, are actually being integrated into the curriculum in a way that could really change and update teaching and learning processes in Ramsey, officials say.
Smith students and teachers gave a presentation to the board of education earlier this month highlighting some of the ways the iPads are being used in the classroom. According to educators, one of the most innovative ways is using the technology to create a flipped classroom.

Alejandro Agag, the organiser of the new electric open-wheel series, thinks that top Formula 1 teams like Ferrari and Red Bull will eventually fight for the Formula E title.
The Austrian news agency APA said "there are already talks" between Agag and McLaren.
"I'm sure teams like Ferrari and Red Bull will be in Formula E one day," Agag told the German newspaper Die Welt.
It is already known that Williams is supplying the series' lithium batteries, McLaren is developing the electric motors and transmission, former Formula 1 supplier Michelin the tyres, and GP2 partner Dallara the chassis.
Agag said that former Formula 1 and GP2 drivers will be at the wheel, although "I can't [give] any names yet".
He insisted, however, that the plan is not to replace Formula 1.
"I'm a big F1 fan," said Agag, "so I hope it never disappears. "Eventually, we would like to be as big as F1, but our focus is different."
Formula E facts:
- First race will be in 2014.
- There will be 10 teams and 20 drivers. To date, 2 teams have officially signed to race in the 2014 championship.
- There will be races in 10 cities throughout the world: London, Rome, Los Angeles, Miami, Beijing, Putrajaya, Buenos Aires and Rio de Janeiro (2 cities are TBD with Bangkok looking like a strong possibility).
- Renault will develop the cars with Spark Racing Technology. Forty-two cars will be built for the first season. They will be named "Spark-Renault".
- Michelin will be the tire supplier for the first three seasons.
- TAG Heuer is the Official Timekeeper, Official Watch and Chronograph and Technical Founding Parter of the FIA Formula E Championship.
- Williams Advanced Engineering, part of a group of comapanies that includes the Williams F1 team, will design and build the batteries for the SRT 01E.
- McLaren Electronic Systems will suppy the transmission, electronics, and powertrain for the car.

Williamson and Mack each scored in double figures for the Aggies. Williamson had 12 points and Mack had 10. The game was Mack's third game scoring in double figures this season.
The Aggies shot 31.9 percent as a team and allowed SU to shoot 40.7 percent. As a team, NM State was out-rebounded 51-35.
Player Profile
Nash, a redshirt sophomore from Kayenta, Ariz., was key for NM State in the overtime win against Utah Valley on Saturday, Feb. 1. The Aggies volleyball-turned basketball player had a career-high nine points and seven rebounds, while recording four blocks and a steal in just 19 minutes on the court. Nash is averaging 4.6 points and rebounds for the Aggies, has seven blocks and is shooting 45 percent from the floor in her five games on the court.
Scott Stamps Record Book
Scott was 11-for-20 from 3-point range, which surpasses Hall of Fame member Mari Sanchez's 10 made 3-pointers from back in 2002 against Louisiana-Lafayette and sets her atop the NM State record book. Scott scored 36 points, which was the first 30-point game from an Aggie since Danisha Corbett in Jan. 2011. She is now tied for third in the Aggie record book for most points in a game. The 11 3-pointers also break the WAC record for most in a single game.
Her 20 attempts from beyond the arc are the most by any Aggie in a single game. That record was also held by Sanchez with 17 attempts against Louisiana-Lafayette.
Along with stamping her name in the NM State and WAC record books, Scott is now tied with eight others in the NCAA record book for the third most three's scored in a single game. The record is 12 and was hit twice; most recently by Brittany Rayburn of Purdue in Jan. 2012.
New Records for Scott:
NCAA 3-point FG made in a Game 11-T3rd (vs. Chicago State 1/16/14)
WAC 3-point FG made in a Game 11-1st (vs. Chicago State 1/16/14)
WAC 3-point FG Attempts 20-1st (vs. Chicago State 1/16/14)
NM State 3-point FG made in a Game 11-1st (vs. Chicago State 1/16/14)
NM State 3-point FG Attempts 20-1st (vs. Chicago State 1/16/14)

NM State ended the year with a second round loss to top-seeded Seattle U in the WAC Tournament. NM State went into the tournament as the eighth seed and fell 77-53.
Preseason All-WAC
The Aggies were selected to finish third in the Western Athletic Conference media and coaches' preseason polls. Sophomore guard Sasha Weber was picked as a second-team selection in both polls. This comes after being noted as the top returner for the Aggies with 24 starts and 8-5 points per contest.
Coming in 2014-15
Head coach Mark Trakh announced the signing of three players to the 2014-15 New Mexico State women's basketball team in November. Tyesha Taylor, Jasmine Cooper and Alisha Washington each signed a National Letter of Intent to join the Aggies next fall.
Taylor, a 6-4 junior from Temple High School in Temple, Texas, is a top-10 player in her home state. She suffered a knee injury, keeping her off the court her final nine games of the 2013 season, but still managed to help THS to a 24-8 season record.
Cooper, a 5-11 forward from Lincoln High School in Dallas, Texas, helped her team to a 36-5 overall record as a junior and was named second team all-district. She averaged 5.7 rebounds a game for the Tigers in her two seasons on varsity and had 70 steals during the 2012-13 season.
Washington, a 5-8 guard, is also from Lincoln High School in Dallas, Texas and is the teammate of her future Aggie teammate, Cooper.

A year of Dungeons & Dragons among the books
It's been a year since John Davis started offering a monthly Dungeons and Dragons game day at the Durham County Public Library's main branch.
"This is something traditionally that has happened in someone's house or comic book stores," Davis said. "What we're doing is a compact, short and usually a on-shot, a story arc that concludes in a story setting."
Davis has been a librarian with Durham since 2011. It was through conversations with friends and library patrons that he saw a need to start offering the monthly sessions. He was hearing a common theme – people were interested, but couldn't find the time to play and didn't have anyone willing to lead.
Davis changed that.
"I think that there is a need or at least an interest in this kind of thing," Davis said.
Once a month since July 2013 Davis has gathered a group of adventurers in the library to take part in a new journey.
"My goal here is to have people here who learn about it in the library, then go check out the books, and play," Davis said.
Dungeons and Dragons, which celebrated its 40th anniversary this year, is a fantasy role-playing game in which players take on the role of heroic characters. These characters then battle together for a common purpose. The game promotes collaboration, creative problem solving and literacy.
Since Davis began putting on the programs, he said, he's seen a multitude of people come in to play, ranging in age from 7 to more than 40. Players range in skill level from beginners to those who have played in multiple D&D campaigns.
Davis said another great aspect of holding D&D in the library was the number of women who have showed up to participate.
"Close to half of the people who come in have been women," Davis said. He said he's seen a great amount of racial diversity in his players.
Davis applied for a grant during the year to purchase miniature figurines and have them hand-painted to match the diversity so they wouldn't have "just a sea of whiteness" to represent their characters.
When the monthly game rolls around it's almost like a house party. Players and spectators greet each other and hug. Many catch up as it's the only time they see each other.
Davis has built a community among the players that come to the library monthly. He addresses many by their first names, sometimes even guessing which character they'll use during the day's play.
If a newcomer arrives, he makes sure he learns his or her name and checks to see where he or she is on the waiting list. Davis takes five active players every month. They have to sign up in advance. Those who register after the first five are put on a waiting list to play the day of.
Davis said depending on any given month seven to 27 people could show up. To him, that is "overwhelming," in a good way.
"I'm an enormous geek … I love sharing stuff that I'm passionate about," he said.
Another huge draw for him and the players is the creativity that they get to use in every game.
"We're making a story together," Davis said.
The monthly game will continue for a second year, Davis said. However, he hopes that someday the "monthly" part will change.
"I would love to be able to do it more than once a month," Davis said. "It would be wonderful."

Okaloosa County is joining the Florida Association of Counties and 23 other counties in a legal challenge of the most recent Department of Juvenile Justice funding rules.
For Okaloosa's taxpayers, the funding will go from $180,000 to an estimated $685,000 per year.
Okaloosa County has been overcharged about $3 million since 2009.
Several Florida counties seek repayment by DJJ. At the center of both challenges is the exponentially increased costs to house juveniles.

Brushing teeth right after eating
After I have something to eat, I brush my teeth right away. That way after having a minty, clean mouth, I don't want to mess it up with anything like chocolate, or a salty snack. It just won't taste the same. And why brush your teeth if you're just going to eat something else, right? That also gives me time to get over the craving I have right after a meal, for something sweet to... 'top it off'.

Start by preparation. Clean out the 'bad' food, read the Getting Started secrets, pinpoint your stumbling blocks and form a strategy to deal with them. Read articles on nutrition, fitness, wellness and motivation. Find common ground teams to join. Don't whine about what you need to do - face it head on and enjoy the journey. It is a wonderful one!

Small steps are still steps forward.
Take it one day, or even one meal at a time. And start small. Maybe you add one additional serving of fruit or veggies per day. Maybe you start exercising in 10 minute increments. I found that once I hit a monthly number of fitness minutes, I want to match that or increase it by say 100 minutes the next month.

I have a 20 ounce water bottle that goes EVERYWHERE with me! If water is always on hand, it's much easier to remember to drink it. I also will make sure I finish the bottle before a meal/snack so that I'm a little less hungry when I eat something.

Hit the re-start button a month ago. But, this is a different feeling this go around. I dropped the pretentions of being able to conquer these bad habits of poor food choices and why I make the emotional choices. I decided to take the mask off and ask for help. I googled how to stop cravings for sugars and breads, two of my biggest weaknesses. No more sugar drinks and bread for 30 days. And no beef after lunch. Wow ten pounds came off, woohoo! I started exercising by walking.

Tracking Before Rather than After
Tracking meals in advance helps me stay on target. I make better decisions by selecting what to eat BEFORE I am hungry, and am less prone to cravings. The best part is that I don't have to feel guilty about indulging in a glass of wine with dinner since I've already planned ahead for it! I do this with exercise too - the idea of having to log in to reduce miles run from 3 to 2 is enough to keep me on the treadmill a bit longer, and it's a great feeling to log back in and ADD a mile to the run!

Join Jeff Bartels as he covers the most important features of this industry-standard drafting and design application in AutoCAD 2011 Essential Training. This course begins with a tour of AutoCAD's interface and the tools used to create basic shapes. It then focuses on the methods used to modify and refine geometry while emphasizing accuracy and good habits to build a solid design foundation. The course covers using layers, line types, and colors to organize a drawing file and explains how to efficiently annotate a design and prepare it for final output. Throughout the title, Jeff shares industry techniques used in production and reinforces concepts using practical examples. Exercise files are included with the course.
In this lesson we are going to learn how to clean up our geometry. We are going to look at the Trim and Extend commands. Trim and Extend help us correct our line work after we have made changes. On my screen I have some simple geometry. Let's say I'd like to remove this line work on the inside of this small circle. To do that, I will launch the Trim command. Trim is located in the Modify panel of the Ribbon. The icon is right here. Now that I have launched the tool, take a look at the command line. AutoCAD is asking me to select a cutting edge. When we use the Trim command, we are essentially using one object to cut another.
So I am going to select this circle as my cutting edge and then I will right-click. Then I will click the objects I'd like to Trim, and when I am finished, I will hit my Esc key. Notice AutoCAD trimmed those entities back to meet that cutting edge. Let's take a look at the exact opposite situation. Maybe I have had a design change. I am going to select this circle and then I will come over to my Property Changer, and I will change its radius to 5. I will hit Enter, and then I will move outside the palette and I will hit Esc to deselect the circle. Now, instead of my lines being too long, they are too short.
I would like to project my lines to meet this circle. To do that, I will use the Extend command. Extend is also located in the Modify panel. I am going to click this fly-out. Notice that Trim and Extend share the same menu. I will select the command and if we look at the command line again, this time AutoCAD is asking us for a boundary edge. Now, Trim and Extend work the exact same way, except instead of this edge cutting my objects, this edge will be used as the stopping point for my projected geometry.
I am going to select this circle as my boundary edge and I will right-click, and then I will click on each of these entities to project it to meet my boundary edge. When I am finished, I will hit Esc. Now, I'd like to show you a shortcut, because the Trim and the Extend commands are so similar that we can launch one from within the other. Let's pan this over a little bit. On my screen I have some simple line work. Let's see if we can convert this geometry into the shape of the ladder. To do that, I am obviously going to have to extend some of these lines and I will have to trim some of the others.
I am going to start by launching the Extend command since that was the one we used last, and then I will select this edge, and this edge as my boundary edges, and I will right-click. I will then click to extend this entity, and this one, this one, and this one. And instead of getting out of the command and launching Trim to finish this up, take a look at my cursor. If I hold my Shift key, I can toggle to the Trim command. By holding down Shift, the boundary edges become cutting edges. So I can click this entity, this one, I can trim this one, and this one.
When I am finished, I will hit Esc. So by holding down the Shift key, we can easily toggle from one command to the other. Alright! Now that we understand how to use Trim and Extend, let's try it out in a practical example. I am going to pan my drawing over. On my screen, I have a pair of windows. let's see if we can modify this window, such that it looks like the one on the right. First thing I am going to do is create the arched top. To do that, I will use the Circle command and I'd like to create my circle from the Shift+Right-click, mid-point of this line, and the circle dimension, I can get right down here.
the diameter of the circle must be 39. So I am going to right-click to access the Diameter sub-option, and then I will type 39, and hit Enter. Now, I am going to create the circle for this arc on the inside. We can get the dimension right here. I can see the radius of that circle is an inch-and-a-half less than the previous one. So I am going to re-launch the Circle command, I'd like to create my circle from the center of this one, and take a look at the command line. I can see the radius of the previous circle was 19.5.
If I take one-and-half away from that, the radius of this circle must be 18, Enter. Let's zoom-in a little bit. Now, I can start cleaning up my geometry. I am going to launch the Trim command, and I will select this line as my cutting edge, and I will right-click, and I would like to remove the bottom half of these circles, and then I will hit the Esc key. Now, I don't need these little ends out here. So I am going to launch the Trim command again. I will select this arc as my cutting edge and I will right-click and now I will click to remove these ends.
Now, before I exit the command, I am going to hold down my Shift key, and then I will click each of these lines to project them up to meet that edge. Now that I am finished, I will hit Esc. Okay, the only thing I have left to do is remove a whole bunch of little tiny pieces. Once again, I will launch the Trim command, and instead of selecting a whole bunch of cutting edges, take a look at my cursor. I can either select objects or if I hit Enter, everything in this drawing becomes a cutting edge. Now, it's very easy. I can just come around here and click all the pieces that I'd like to remove and when I am finished, I will hit Esc.
As you can see the Trim and Extend commands have essentially the same workflow, jumping from one to the other is as simple as pressing your Shift key. Knowing how to use both of these commands will allow you to quickly and accurately clean up your geometry.

Major leak comes just a week ahead of Windows Phone 7's big time launch.
The HTC HD7 hasn't exactly been kept under wraps in recent weeks. But now a source at O2 Germany has handed over the full skinny on this 4.3-inch monster, and it sounds absolutely killer.
There's a 5 megapixel snapper round the back, while inside you'll find 8GB of storage, g standard Wi-Fi and a 1GHz processor for keeping things rolling along nicely while you open up all manner of apps.
The good times don't stop there either with chatter about a new Dolby Mobile Sound feature, which sounds like it'll cause all kinds of untold grief for on public transport once the kids get hold of this blower.
Word is that the HD7 will land in a fortnight, costing €579 (£504) SIM-free, dropping to €79 (£68) on a two year contract. Tempted? Take a look at the video of it in action below and tell us on our Facebook and Twitter pages whether you'll be stumping up for one.

Colorado Theater Shooting Suspect Will Enter Insanity Plea
By editor
In a court filing today, lawyers for Colorado theater shooting suspect James Holmes said he intended to plead not guilty by reason of insanity.
Holmes will enter the plea, the court filing says, during a hearing on May 13.
Holmes is accused of opening fire in a crowded Aurora, Colo. movie theater, killing 12 people and injuring 70.
Back in March, a judge entered a not guilty plea on Holmes' behalf. That same month, his defense attorneys floated the idea that Holmes was willing to plead guilty to avoid the death penalty. Prosecutors slammed his defense team, calling that offer a "publicity ploy."
"Holmes would need a judge's permission to change his plea," The Denver Post reports.

Hey Bob
I didnt have any other way to contact you so I figured a comment would do the trick. Last year around this time you wrote an article about Blue Ridge Cable not carrying the Big Ten Network. As I am sure you are aware, we have not yet gotten the Big Ten Network. I was wondering if you had any updates or would be willing to put together an article about this in the near future? I have been in contact with Blue Ridge Cable several times for the last couple of weeks (which I have done the last 3 years in a row) and they keep giving me the same line that BTN will not work with them and they want them to have it on their basic cable. If you could give me any updates or information you might have I would greatly appreciate it.

Demographics and inflation: international graphs

Mark Sandowski (in comments here and here) and Scott Sumner challenge me to support my thesis that inflation is related to demographics with international data. Doing that right would be hard — inflation correlates across borders, as did World War II

Capital cant be measured

Simon Johnson and James Kwak are absolutely right. Sure, "hard" capital and solvency constraints for big banks are better than mealy-mouthed technocratic flexibility. But absent much deeper reforms, totemic leverage restrictions will not meaningfully

Denali scarf
Love this scarf. Bought it in the color black a few years back at my local giant sporting goods store. Always the one I grab first. Have been hunting around for an off-white color one. Only place I could find it was online at Backcountry. Got the matching hat too. The color is not that bright white...it goes with everything. Super soft & warm. It does have a shorter length, but I've really grown to like it that way. Awesome, quick service with Backcountry.

Below is the poem entitled Lies which was written by poet
Thurman. Please feel free to comment on this poem. However, please remember, PoetrySoup is a place of encouragement and growth.
Read Poems by
Matthew Thurman
I cannot say the words
Early in the morning
From sunshine, to the early birds
To see them soaring
From rushing into the herds
You might find this boring
But once or even a single moon
Came way to soon and covered canyons
And mountains
Drinking no water in fountains
Flying high and looking so low
Wandering around
With no way to go
If it were just me I would go solo
But you can never tell
The sounds in the garden
That rings the bell
Because these bell peppers taste no sounds
From instruments that play
Until the night is day
And turn around faces
That has cards that look like aces!
Fowl creatures of the night
Dark tears that turn to light
The food that gives you wisdom is empty
When the going gets tuff
It isn't never enough
If you look at my face
You wouldn't be able to call my bluff
Because I would always tell you the truth.

COLUMBIA CITY — When he was a boy, Jim Clifford's grandfather once told him he had the "shoulders of a preacher."
Those words proved prophetic when Clifford, with the support of his wife Barbara, took the pulpit at Laud Christian Church and delivered sermons for 42 years.

USOC honors S.A.'s Block for service
By Richard Oliver : September 19, 2012 : Updated: September 19, 2012 10:22pm
George Block, director for amateur sports facilities for the Bexar County Community Venues Program, visits the STAR Soccer Complex on Tuesday.
Photo By Marvin firstname.lastname@example.com
County sports facilities consultant George Block speaks at the opening ceremonies for the $6.2 million Culebra Creek Soccer Park.
Photo By LELAND A. OUTZ/SPECIAL TO THE EXPRESS-NEWSGuests Gary White, from left, Ann Hill, inductee and spouse to Ann, David Hill and San Antonio Sports Foundation chairman George Block gather at the San Antonio Sports Hall of Fame Tribute at the Alamodome on 2/10/2012. This is #1 of 2 photos. names checked photo by leland a. outz
George Block found out quite by accident that the U.S. Olympic Committee was giving him one of its most prominent annual honors.
He received the airplane tickets to Colorado Springs, Colo., before he got the notification he'd won the Rings of Gold award.
"I thought, 'I'm not going up there,'" said Block, 61. "They said, 'You haven't been told?'"
The San Antonio Sports founder and chairman of the board is being recognized as a driving force in helping children realize their Olympic or Paralympic aspirations. A celebratory dinner is being hosted Friday night at the U.S. Olympic and Paralympic Assembly.
The former Olympic swim coach served as athletic director, among other duties, for the Northside Independent School District for 32 years. NISD named its aquatics complex the George Block Aquatics Center in 2009.
"I looked up the award, and it's really what I did my whole life," Block said. "I have told kids that having a dream isn't enough. You've got to have a real plan."
As for the USOC recognizing that work, he added with a laugh, "How the hell did they know?"
Block has served USA Swimming in various roles during his career, including as vice president and as a national team coach.
Susan Blackwood, executive director of San Antonio Sports, said, "George Block embodies the Olympic spirit and has lived its ideals throughout his professional career. He has guided thousands of young people to pursue excellence in body, mind and spirit."
Block developed six Olympians, hailing from three different countries, in swimming, triathlon and pentathlon. He also worked with 52 UIL gold medalists, more than 285 All-Americans and other national and junior champions.
Until recently, he also served as CEO and president of Haven for Hope, a nonprofit organization servicing San Antonio's homeless population.

Advisor goals: values are the DNA of vision
By Jesse Giuliani
By: Simon Reilly
Leading Advisor Inc.
Values are the DNA of fulfillment. When one lives their values, the fulfillment of their values generates positive feelings and positive beliefs. Values and the positive feelings and positive beliefs that they inspire are also the DNA of one's vision.
To create your vision for 2011, imagine looking back from Dec. 31, 2011, and ask yourself:
- What did you accomplish?
- What goal did you set and achieve?
- What made you happy?
- Administration
- Computer/systems
- Customer service
- Financial
- Marketing
- Office
- Products/product knowledge
- Sales
- Team
- Training
- Vision/planning
- A 90-day goal makes your vision more attainable by making it short term.
- Enables you to relate to the rewards in the short term.
- Defines a few steps to create it versus getting overwhelmed with the perfect plan.
To create the space to define your vision and 90-day goals, schedule one to two days away from your home and office in some place that is nurturing and where you can be anonymous.
Don't miss Simon Reilly's session at 11:30 am on Thursday, August 25th.
