The colorful buildings in Curacao, not to mention the year-round 80-degree weather, minimal rainfall, and 65 individual snorkeling and diving sites, are sure to brighten up your stay. See 1,500-year-old Caquetios Indian drawings at the Hato Caves, visit the oldest synagogue still in use in the Western hemisphere, or take a dive to the Mushroom Forest, Airplane Wreck, or Tug Boat.
Why It's a Good Value
Competition from several airlines, including American, Continental, and Delta, helps keep prices low. Air Jamaica also offers connections via Montego Bay. Like Aruba, Curacao provides reliable, affordable bus service that serves the resort areas.
The Curacao NOW program is offering $200 in instant credit, $200 food and beverage credit, one free night, and more when you book a vacation package by March 15. The offer is valid for travel May 1 through July 4 and August 15 through December 18. For more specials, check out Curacao's official tourism website. The site also has a handy Vacation Matcher, which generates a list of suggested activities based on who you're traveling with and your interests.
Best Beaches
Lizabet suggests Cas Abao, since "the water was crystal clear and perfect for snorkeling ... This was a cove, but even so it was not crowded." She also notes the "gorgeous view" and the "huge rock formations framing the cove."
Other beaches to try include Kenepa, whose two coves offer some of the most popular beaches; Klein Curacao, an uninhabited island formed by volcanic rock eight miles from the coast that has the longest beach; and Plata Lagun, complete with fishing boats, and calm, shallow waters close to shore that are great for snorkeling and family activities.

Over on his blog this week, Michael Bauer, the San Francisco Chronicle's restaurant critic,
Related Content
6480" target="_blank">reposts a letter sent to him by a young waiter. The guy writes that when he and his girlfriend go to upscale restaurants, they often get crappy service that the waiter suspects is due to his age. Bauer wonders, was it just bad service? Was it the way the guy and his girlfriend were dressed?
That post reminded me of the days when I first started reviewing restaurants -- fresh out of the kitchen, in my late 20s, a journeyman cook. This was in the Bay Area during the height of the dot-com bubble, so people even younger than me (and just as dressed-down) were flinging around platinum cards like numchucks at a ninja competition. Even then, I noticed that waiters in certain restaurants were definitely spending more time with parties of older diners than with me and my friends. A few times, when the brushoff was too egregious (Chez Panisse Cafe, ahem), I'd retaliate by grilling the waiter over the wine list and the menu for 15 minutes. Since I moved to Seattle at an age where people assume I'm a regular restaurant-goer, I've never noticed the problem here. I assume bad service is bad service.
Have any of you gotten dismissed as diners because of your age? Where?

Respond to Review of Vegefarm Restaurant
by Riikka
Review: The menu sounded very delicious but the dishes we ordered weren't that good. I had some fish dish with white wine sauce and though the texture was spot on the taste was way too gingery and asian for my tastes (was excepting something more western with the sauce). My boyfriend had a glassnoodle salad with prawns which was way too spicy, it was one of the few times he couldn't finnish a meal and mind you we hadn't eaten anything that day. The prices were high for something that in the end was very typical asian cookery with some very good and fancy soy products.
Posted by David Jones on Friday, February 22, 2013
I'm afraid i have to agree with you. I expected a special new restaurant, but you are right that it is just typical Asian. Mind you, if you like typical fatty Asian -and I know many people in Germany do - then this could be the place for you.

The witnesses spoke about California's Maximum Family Grant rule for families on welfare. The rule caps grants and does not increase grant money to mothers on welfare when they have more children. Mary testified about the causes of poverty and of the need for other, non-government options for poor families. She introduced ideas for helping the poor through private resources and organizations, instead of government agencies where families and women often find themselves trapped in a cycle of poverty.

Yeah i read about Lewis and Him destroying tires. Also hulkenberg made a similar comment saying that after a lap or two of running full tanks on the softs, they were gone.

About Sid Savara
Hi. My name is Sid Savara, and let me ask you a question:
Do you want to make the most out of the time you have in your life? Do you want to accomplish your goals, live up to your potential – and enjoy it all?
If you do, you are in the right place: you are the reason I started this website, to find kindred spirits just like you.
I've spent two decades studying what makes people succeed – and why people fail
It's crazy to think that in these past few years, I went from writing s, and that you are here because you too can learn from the strategies and techniques I've discovered.
The truth is, telling people "About Sid" has always been something very difficult for me.
So rather than giving you a formal, "best foot forward" biography, I'm going to tell you the real story.
You're going to come with me way back to the beginning about who I am, where I came from – and why I can't help but do what I do.
(By the way, if you DO just want a quick clean bio for a publication, feel free to grab it here: Sid's media bio)
In The Beginning…
In the beginning, I never meant to teach people how to improve their lives – I just wanted to figure out how things worked. And I don't just mean about accomplishing my dreams – I mean, how everything worked
I always was a bit of an odd kid, and had an insatiable appetite for learning how things worked. I was never quite content to just listen and do it because "that's the way we do things" – at a young age, I constantly annoyed adults by asking "why?"
But I can't say I did it because I'm much of a rebel – I just really wanted to know.
- Why is it that I shouldn't swim after eating?
- Why should I eat my vegetables?
- Why can't I blow out candles on other people's birthday cakes?
And while I didn't agree with it, and didn't enjoy it, I understood why I was supposed to eat my green vegetables (and would later do the research to back up my mom's life advice).
I Break Things (To See How They Work)
One of my clearest memories from my childhood was intentionally breaking my cousin's brand new hand held video game he had received for his birthday.
All of us cousins were sitting around amazed by it, and when he went to school, I was left all alone with it.
I couldn't stop playing the game – and once I figured out the mechanics, I promptly beat the game and got bored with it.
And then I wondered…how does it really work.
- How do the lights light up?
- How does the control pad work?
I had no idea how expensive his new toy was – but I knew I had to know how it worked.
So I smashed it.
He came home and saw me playing with it in shambles and asked me … "What happened?"
"It's broken. But it still works!"
I showed him how I had rigged it up so you could still play it (sort of)
Looking back now it's a wonder he didn't beat the snot out of me.
I Keep Looking For Patterns
Time flies by fast as you grow up, but I remember so often looking at things and seeing patterns where nobody else did.
I was undersized playing soccer and basketball, but what I lacked in brute force I made up for with seeing patterns, loopholes in the rules, and what strategies REALLY worked and what didn't.
And then I started to notice that patterns exist in all areas of life.
I started to learn that things could be so much easier if I just learned from what was working, and what wasn't – and applied what worked to my own life.
Patterns Applied In Real Life
Though I initially was shy, introverted (and not to mention culturally a fish out of water, having moved countries three times before I even started kindergarten!), I realized that by analyzing the patterns of what worked for others, and then systematically testing them, I could be just as good as anyone else.
So that's what I did…
- I learned what was required in school, and ended up graduating at the top of my class and receiving a full scholarship to college.
- I researched nutrition and fitness, and ended up first losing 30 lbs of fat, and then gaining 50 lbs of muscle
- I learned what worked and what didn't in the professional world, and quickly climbed the ranks to a senior position
But most importantly of all….
I learned that there was a way to always achieve what I wanted.
It's not easy, and it's not that I magically can have anything I want. But I have learned that I can manage my time, effort and energy so that with very little mental effort or stress I (or really, anybody) can accomplish great things.
Perhaps the best example of this was when in my early 20s, I was able to work full time at a Fortune 500 company, while completing my Master's Degree at a Top 20 University, all while growing my circle of friends, improving my fitness and starting a band!
Where We Are Today
(pic by Jade Craven)
And that brings us to where we are today. Over the past few years I've learned so much about business, life, relationships, fitness and long term happiness.
I think a lot about not just where we are today – but also how to accomplish my dreams and also live my life so I can look back with satisfaction rather than regret. I've made mistakes, and where I have, I try to share those lessons so you don't have to go through the same mistakes I did.
And through it all, I've continued to stubbornly refuse to just accept things – especially techniques to improve my life. I always ask:
- Does it really work?
- How does it work?
- Why does it work?
- How can I share this so it helps others
Asking why, searching for the patterns that work, and really just searching for the provable truth is what drives everything I do.
Why I Started Writing
The reason I started writing here was because I was tired of all the junk out there – all the bad advice that sounds good on paper, that makes people feel warm and tingly inside – and then doesn't work.
I got so frustrated of seeing people follow what I knew was bad advice, and then fail – just as I had followed bad advice and failed in the past.
So I began to write and share what I had learned from trying, succeeding….and failing over the years.
And something amazing happened.
People started to try out the advice I was giving and started to see real results.
Now in the years since I started writing, literally tens of thousands of readers just like you have gone through my courses.
Hundreds have written in pouring in their thanks, letters of testimonial – and perhaps the best of all, have told their friends about the resources here.
I love accomplishing my goals – to me, accomplishing your goals is about the closest to a magic bullet for getting exactly what you want in life.
I think everyone should have the opportunity to do what they love, contribute to the world, and live a life of freedom to do what they desire.
That's what drives me, and why I write for you.

Oh Wow! This is amazing! I love how each element of this painting becomes part of the next creating a living, moving whole! Fantastic!
How beautiful! Love all the detail. If I may say so, the neutral colours you chose for this painting offer the viewer more profound depth than a riot of colour would have. For some reason, I find myself viewing this painting in an anti-clock wise direction ~ it seems to pull my eyes round that way which means it has magic in it!!! It has a beautiful balance to it that is difficult to define. I love the stories within stories that it encapsulates. Your best work by far! Congratulations ~ it's fabulous!
I love the contrast between light and dark in this and all the textual details you added. Wonderful work!
Beautiful work, Ora

Bloomberg says there's no indication that terrorism was involved.
He says the plane took off from Teterboro Airport in New Jersey,

He says two people in one apartment were "shaken up" by the

The mayor says the plane was made of composite materials, and
that most of it burned up. He says the engine was found on one of

Bloomberg says the plane was "pretty light," and that there
wasn't a lot of damage to the building.

One dilemma facing many aspiring vegetable gardeners is sub-prime soil, shall we say. Compacted, clay soil is not uncommon in Kentuckiana but it is especially common in newer developments.
One way to off-set the problem is to employ a system of raised beds.
Raised beds are practical for many reasons and they are not just for the clay-challenged.
Practical because you do not have to till, dig, double dig or battle clay in a raised bed. The soil has been added by you so it is as good as you want it to be.
The Harrison County Farmers Market plans to open Saturday, April 30 at the new Farmers Market Pavilion at Flat Run Veterans Park. A grand opening celebration is being planned and future details will follow.

Tahuya is some very special medicine developed for years on the Olympic Peninsula
Medical marijuana delivery services require a certain leap of faith on the part of patients. Unlike storefront access points, you can't go in and do a little comparison shopping among the various strains before making your selections. But with Green Ambrosia -- covering King County in its delivery area -- I needn't have worried. The phone customer service rep was knowledgeable and helpful, offering input and advice on my strain selections, and the delivery itself was punctual. The phone rep had given me a half-hour window when my medicine might arrive, but delivery person Rebecca showed up at the front end of that window, only about an hour after I'd called in.
Tahuya is some very special medicine developed for years on the Olympic Peninsula
Almost all the strains at Green Ambrosia go for a donation rate of $12 a gram, with a couple of $10 exceptions (the House Indica, plus a rotating $10 special) and one very special top shelf strain, Tahuya, at $15 a gram. I selected four $12 strains: the pure sativa Sour Diesel; the hybrids Deadhead OG and Original Pez; and the interestingly named indica, Firecrotch. (Be aware that Green Ambrosia adds sales tax, so your order total will reflect that.)
Upon the arrival of Rebecca with my order, I was delighted to learn that Green Ambrosia had thrown in a gram of their top-shelf Tahuya, which revealed itself to be some awesome medicine (normally priced at $15 a gram, it had better be). Tahuya offers both pain relief and energy, a rare and valuable combination that makes it a good smoke for either day or night. The strain was reportedly developed for such a long while on the Olympic Peninsula that its genetic origins are lost in the mists of time and THC.
As for the $12 strains, the Sour Diesel (grown hydroponically, according to Green Ambrosia) provided the expected burst of creative energy, upbeat insight, and euphoria. This Sour D has a quick onset, but doesn't stick around as long as the other three Green Ambrosia strains I tried, making it necessary to toke up more often.
The sativa-dominant hybrid Deadhead OG is some of the finest cannabis I've smoked in awhile.
The organic Original Pez is a Northwest-bred strain originating in the early 1990s; it does have a subtle sent of its namesake candy, but it smells way better. As an indica dominant hybrid, it produces the kind of body stone that helps relieve pain and, in the process, puts a grin on your face.
The Deadhead OG is some of finest cannabis I've smoked in awhile. It's a sativa-dominant hybrid which hits with a pleasant mental rush with a prominent "wow" factor. With continued toking, it morphs into a body stone, relieving pain, depression and anxiety. This sticky, crystalicious synapse-thumper has satisfying oomph.
Then there's Firecrotch, certainly an intriguing moniker. This one will appeal to fans of heavy, couchlock indicas. It's something of a creeper, but 15 minutes after you finish a joint you'll be filled with pleasant lassitude; you may find yourself melting into the couch, you'll be so relaxed. Needless to say, it's an ideal bedtime smoke.

I knew all about salvation and what Christ did for me on the cross, but I never made it personal. I acted like a Christian and talked like a Christian, but I wasn't saved. When I was in 8th grade, through a series of circumstances at school, the Lord brought me to a point where I was face to face with my sin. I remember thinking, "How could anyone ever love me?" Then it clicked. God loves me, He loves me so much He sent His Son to die for me. It was then that I made it personal and accepted Christ as my Savior.
I met Rachel in 2007 at Camp CoBeAc where we were both summer counselors. We were married in 2009. The Lord has blessed us with three boys – James (5), Christian (3), and Nate (1). Our family loves outdoor activities, but we also like to cuddle up on the couch and read a book together.
Huber played Junior Varsity and Varsity soccer during High School in Pennsylvania, and also played college soccer before graduating with an undergraduate degree in Camp Administration in 2001. The Lord moved Huber to California for five years where he taught elementary school. During this time, he was able to coach several different sports through the YMCA and in a local youth soccer league, as a referee and coach. Huber moved back to Pennsylvania to teach in a Christian school and coach youth soccer while working on a graduate degree. In 2010, he finished a Master of Science in Sport and Athletic Administration and began working as a Director for a local YMCA. He moved his family to Maranatha in 2012, and has served since as the Director of Student Activities and Intramural Sports.
As a coach, I want my players to learn the game, work hard, and play on purpose. Paul echoes this philosophy in I Corinthians 9:24-27 where he encourages the Corinthians to work toward an incorruptible goal, to do everything for a reason, and maintain a testimony that reflects Christ. That's what I want for my players on the soccer field and in their lives. We respect the game, we work hard, and we play smart not just to get the win, but also to develop character and God-given talents and abilities for His glory.

Instead of thinking about this when you are drunk it reminds me of waking up early in the morning.
What I'm imagining:
It's autumn, as the sunlight fades each morning, you wake up to a darker and dimmer room. It's a slow start, but you mange to get out of bed and drag yourself to your bathroom. You flick on the lights, the sudden brightness hurts your eyes and you are blinded for a minute. As your eyes adjust to the lights you use the toilet, brushed your teeth, and get dressed. When you are done, you make your way into the kitchen. The sun still isn't fully out yet. Whatever little light that was coming into your window projected a pale blue-grey color on the walls. There was just enough of it so that you didn't need the turn on your kitchen lights. You go to the coffee maker and make a new batch of coffee for yourself. When the coffee is finished brewing you pour yourself a cup and take a seat. As you take your first sip, the sun pikes up and slowly lights your kitchen.
This took be 30 seconds to think up, but it took a lot longer to write it out... :|
lol. personally i hate early mornings. when the alarm goes off, i sometimes find myself cursing out loud, similiar to "go to fucking hell shit piss" or whatever comes to mind.
thanks for the inspiring review, man! :D

Swedish Family Policy, Fertility and Female Wages
Recent demographic literature shows in Swedish micro-level data a positive effect of female wage income or female education on fertility. The literature explains this finding with Swedish family policies of high subsidies for bought-in child care and generous parental leave benefits that are calculated on the basis of a woman's prior wage income. Both policies would cause the substitution effect from an increase in female wages on fertility to be dominated by its income effect. This paper shows within an economic model that there are offsetting effects from Swedish family policy that cause the reduction in the magnitude of the substitution effect of female wages to be most likely rather small.

Is there a way to limit the length of the line matched by ack? If ack matches, for example, a minified javascript file, the line it prints out can be very large. I still want it to show the highlighted match, but ideally with the line cut before and after the match with elipses:
"... stuff match stuff ...". Not seeing anything conclusive in the ack docs.
I tried digging into it with something like
ack pattern | awk '{print substr($0,1,200) }'
awk seems to be stripping coloring and formatting, which is undesired. Also I tried (bear with me for a second):
ack pattern | ack pattern
To see if I could re-ack on each line and chop it up or something, but that has the same formatting problem. Piping ack output removes the line breaks apparently?
Edited based on comment:
Maybe it will help to explain the main reason why I want this. I use ack.vim to search in my project. I often want to ack through my javascript files to find a word, like "cookie". We have jQuery and other minified libraries versioned in our code, so they show up in the ack results. Since those files are minified, there are very few line breaks, and it shows a gigantic line in the split window which I have to scroll past. I almost never care about that match so it's annoying to take up so much space. I could just add those minified file names to my ackrc to ignore but I'd prefer not to have to add a new file name every time we add a minified library. There is an open issue on the ack.vim repo about this. I want to know if it's possible to do purely through bash-fu.

|Pathway Genomics Patent applications
|Patent application number
|Genetic Sample Collection Systems - Biological sample collection kits are devised with physical features to enable a high performance collection system which delivers preprocessed biological matter via conventional shipping means to a testing laboratories. In particular, untrained and unskilled users deposit biological matter such as saliva or blood into a receiving vessel. By sealing the container, the user causes release of a premixed solution containing preservatives and optionally lysis reagents. In addition, a purification agent is arranged to bind to target molecules and facilitate their removal from solution. These time consuming processes occur while the sample is in transit to the testing facility such that when it arrives, it is in a preconditioned state immediately ready for execution of washing steps. Thus, the high performance containers taught herein are useful for collection biological samples and performing initial process steps on received matter—steps which are largely effected during the shipping stage of the transfer process.
|Genetic Based Health Management Systems for Weight and Nutrition Control - Systems have been devised for health management based upon genetic markers. Specifically, systems are arranged to compute genetic risk for several factors relating to metabolism and weight gain in view of various genotypes at particular markers in an individual's genome. An algorithm which depends upon these risk calculations and in further view of the presence of additional variants in the genome under test is executed to arrive at a diet type selection for the particular user. In additions to diet type selections, specific supporting diet related recommendations related to eating behaviors, food reactions and nutritional needs, based upon markers found in the genetic profile, are additionally included in a diet action plan.
|Genetic based health management apparatus and methods - Apparatus and methods are devised and provided to receive genetic material from a human test subject and further to characterize that genetic material into an electronic representation of a genome. In particular, with respect to many genetic features which relate to diet, nutrition and exercise with a view to weight control. Based upon the presence of certain genetic features, genetic markers or polymorphisms, a rules based logic path is executed to arrive at a action plan set of recommendations. These recommendations relate to lifestyle actions which may be taken up by a person and these actions thus relate to that person's particular genetic composition. These apparatus and methods produce an easy-to-consume visual presentation describing genetic based traits and conditions, the personal status of a test subject as it relates to these genetic dependent traits and conditions, and possible lifestyle actions which may be performed by the user.
|Genomics-based alerting systems - A computer alert to system and apparatus is arranged about DNA sequence markers whereby the genome of a specific human subject is considered in view of a plurality of discrete rules to affect alerts which may be generated and transmitted in electronic form over standardized e-mail systems (Internet/SMTP protocol for example) to a user workstation which may be equipped with a browser or custom application (includes a special genome viewers, review tools; etc.). Alerting systems described in this disclosure included mechanical/a chemical systems for analyzing a human DNA sample to produce a genomic data set representing genetic indicators or markers on alleles of interest including those as well SNPs associated with important trial traits disease and characteristics. A genome dataset is stored as a portion of a data a record having a one-to-one correspondence with membership in a membership database. A dynamic rules that of its reality of discrete rules provides a query engine with logic which can be executed against membership data stored in accordance with standardized database procedures to produce a genomic result set from which appropriate alerts may be formed in an alert to module computer apparatus. These alerts may be characterized as including multimedia information and they may be prefer to play conveyed to membership with whom the underlying data is associated.

A flexible strip having adhesives on two portions of a first side accommodate therebetween and absorbent pad and substrate with microstructures. The substrate includes microstructures arranged to gently penetrate or pierce skin and cause a small amount of blood to pass to the external surface of a user's flesh. An absorbent pad receives and absorbs a blood sample therein. The absorbent pad may additionally support a plurality of chemical agents which further advances mobility of blood in the collection system. These chemical agents may include anticoagulants and blood anticlotting agents to facilitate blood transfer from a donor to the absorbent pad. Additionally, these systems may also include a blood preservative to stabilize blood collected for an extended shipping and transfer period. These blood sample collection systems may further include a numbing agent to improve comfort of use.
|Dual-mode microfluidic genetics testing platforms and methods of dual-mode genetics testing using same - Dual mode genetics testing systems are devised about a single element testing platform. A microfluidic network and system of interconnected receiving cells and reaction vessels supports at the same time genotyping and copy number analysis where the platform may be subject to a common thermal cycle schedule to cause the proper reactions (DNA replication) necessary in both test types. Further, the microfluidic platform which includes reaction vessels for genotyping which are spatially removed from reaction vessels for copy number analysis, is coupled to optical scanner and detection systems specifically arranged to apply test specific detection routines on each of these distinct regions or portions of the dual mode test platform.
|Saliva sample collection systems - Saliva sample collection systems are configured with special attention to ease-of-use for the unskilled user and safe transport and delivery by a conventional delivery services such as Federal Express. A sealed cavity is formed by tight coupling of two primary elements: a receiving vessel element and a sealing cap element. The receiving vessel has integrated therewith: a standing means, a fill-line window, a funnel system, a knife, a threadset, and containment tube among others. A complementary cap element includes a cooperating threadset, label receiving surface, gripping surface, seal means and reservoir with piercable thin-film membrane. These two primary elements may be accommodated in an application-specific shipping container which support two shipping modes whereby the system may be shipped safely to and from a donor user each way in a different shipping mode.
|Genome-based drug management systems - A drug management system based upon membership genomic data is coupled to cooperating external computing systems via an object server which prepares drug use reports for automated delivery in response to results that data output from the member database. Based on rules stored in a rules library a query engine runs tests on the stored member genetic information to identify and meet specified criteria.

Robyn Coffer has spent the past three years taping ankles, icing knees and wrapping shoulders at Columbus North's athletic trainer.
Now, she has added a big undertaking to her already busy schedule. She has been hired as the Bull Dogs' head softball coach.
"It will be different as far as balancing my schedule," Coffer said. "Going to games and practices are already part of my routine, so focusing on one team at a time will be a change."
Coffer, 26, will retain her duties as a certified athletic trainer, covering all sports at North. Athletics director Jeff Hester worked out a schedule with her and Steve Souder, the school's other athletic trainer.
"We have it worked out where there won't be any conflicts with that," Hester said. "It helps having Steve Souder, as well. Since baseball and softball are going to be at the same location, that will be convenient for Robyn."
The softball team is moving into a new complex next to the baseball fields at Southside Elementary School.
A three-time All-City pitcher at Heritage Christian and an All-Mid-Central Conference player at Indiana Wesleyan, Coffer is no stranger to the softball diamond. She played pitcher, center field, shortstop and second base during her time at Indiana Wesleyan, where she was an Academic All-Conference selection.
"I've got to see a lot of players and a lot of softball," said Coffer, who began playing at age 5. "It's been a big part of my life and my growing-up experience."
Hester coached Coffer in junior varsity basketball at Heritage Christian and was the school's AD when she won the Eagles' Female Athlete of the Year honor as a senior.
"I've known Robyn and her family for 10 or 15 years," Hester said. "I always knew that she would make an excellent coach. As an athlete, she was extremely coachable."
Three years ago, Hester hired Coffer as a trainer. Columbus Regional Hospital took over the trainers' contracts beginning last year.
Coffer replaces Jerry Burton, who retired after five seasons with the Bull Dogs and 23 years overall at Columbus East, Jennings County and North.
"I was sad to see Jerry go," Hester said. "When he said he was going to retire, Robyn was the first person that came to mind. Robyn shares my philosophy and knows the athletes at Columbus North, and I think it will be a pretty seamless transition."
While in college, Coffer helped out with the Heritage Christian program during the summers. She gave individual pitching lessons, mostly in Indianapolis, her first couple years out of college.
"It was something that I've always kind of wanted to do as far as mentor girls," Coffer said. "When (the North) position became open, Jeff did mention it to me; and at that point, the wheels began to turn, and we worked out a schedule.
"If you were an OK player, you want to try to help someone else through coaching," she said. "It's kind of a ministry outreach, as well."
The Bull Dogs return six starters from a team that went 17-11 and finished as runner-up in Conference Indiana and the North Sectional.
"I'm excited to see what they have to offer and see what I can do for them," Coffer said. "The opportunities are incredible. It's almost overwhelming but also very exciting."
