STARKVILLE -- Chris Wilson has an easy answer to the average Joe who wonders why the Mississippi State football team won't line up 10 guys at the line of scrimmage to stop the University of Alabama's running game.
STARKVILLE -- It's possible to reverse history and imagine Tyler Russell on the opposite sideline Saturday for the Mississippi State football team's game against the University of Alabama. Three years ago, the Parade All-American quarterback's college decision was down to a pair of schools less than 85 miles apart on Highway 82.
OXFORD -- It was apparent quite quickly that this wasn't a normal University of Mississippi football team practice. As players slowly made their way up the stairs and onto the practice field, employees loaded boxes into a car in the parking lot, the first signs that the beginning of the end of Houston Nutt's tenure is here.
STARKVILLE -- Mississippi State men's basketball coach Rick Stansbury never has been shy about touting the skills of his team's next opponent days before a game.
Even though it didn't play, Tuesday was still a big day for the East Mississippi Community College football team. The undefeated Lions moved to No. 2 in the latest NJCAA top 20 released Tuesday. EMCC (10-0) trails No. 1 Arizona Western College (10-0) by five points (137-132). Arizona Western secured four of seven first-place votes. EMCC had one, as did No. 3 Butler C.C. (9-1) and No. 4 Grand Rapids C.C. (10-0).
Fifth-year East Mississippi Community College men's basketball coach Mark White says there is nothing mystical about his program's rise to the top of the food chain in the state of Mississippi. "It's real simple," White said. "Hard work. Nothing is going to ever going to replace hard work."
In seven years as women's soccer coach at Clemson University, Todd Bramble never located a mole in the NCAA who would tip him off with inside information.
OXFORD -- Houston Nutt came to the University of Mississippi with the goal of becoming the first coach to lead the Rebels to the Southeastern Conference championship game. It didn't happen, far from it. Over the past year, the Rebels couldn't win a single SEC game. "The thing about the SEC that I know," Nutt said. "They pay you to win."
STARKVILLE -- The pressure was beginning to mount on Mississippi State senior tailback Vick Ballard. In a 55-17 victory against the University of Tennessee-Martin on Saturday, that pressure valve went down a few notches after he found the end zone again.
STARKVILLE -- In a surprisingly tight victory, the Mississippi State men's basketball found a flaw it will need to fix before opponents get a book on them.
STARKVILLE -- Mississippi State football coach Dan Mullen said Monday the dynamic of the 2011 Egg Bowl matchup against the University of Mississippi remains the same after the announcement that Houston Nutt won't return as Ole Miss' coach after that game.
STARKVILLE -- Porsha Porter's smile could be a deadly weapon for the Mississippi State women's basketball team this season. Like anyone who has had braces, the senior guard is getting used to a smile that lights up a room. The comfort level Porter feels in her second season with the Lady Bulldogs could give her even more reasons to flash her new look.
Just hours after stepping down, two high-ranking Penn State administrators face arraignment Monday on charges they lied to a grand jury investigating former defensive coordinator Jerry Sandusky and failed to properly report suspected child abuse by the ex-football coach.
STARKVILLE -- The Mississippi State women's basketball team showed Sunday it has the potential to have a potent one-two punch. Now the Lady Bulldogs will work on finding more weapons to add to their go-to arsenal.
STARKVILLE -- With a sense of relief, Mississippi State football coach Dan Mullen used three words to sum up his team's performance on Homecoming Saturday night. "It's a win," Mullen said.
TUSCALOOSA, Ala. -- The No. 2 University of Alabama football team kept coming up short in the biggest game of the season. That very well could be where the Crimson Tide's national championship aspirations will fall, too. The Tide botched three field goals and had a trick play backfire in a 9-6 overtime loss to No. 1 LSU on Saturday in a game Alabama fans will long rue as one that got away.
LEXINGTON, Ky. -- After three quarters, University of Mississippi football coach Houston Nutt felt good about the Rebels' chances of winning their first Southeastern Conference game of the year. That didn't last long.
STARKVILLE -- Mississippi State football coach Dan Mullen wasn't about to let the scoreboard cloud his anger toward his team's play in the first half Saturday against the University of Tennessee-Martin.
STARKVILLE -- Football fans in the state of Mississippi may have forgotten about Jason McNair's ability to run the football. McNair re-introduced himself as a member of the Tennessee-Martin backfield on Saturday, rushing for a game-high 122 yards on 27 carries in the University of Tennessee-Martin's 55-17 loss to Mississippi State at Davis Wade Stadium.
SCOOBA -- The East Mississippi Community College football team isn't necessarily all pass all the time. No. 3 EMCC proved Saturday it can run the football, too.

MSI Radeon HD 5830 1GB Twin FrozrII Video Card
Final Thoughts
Compared to the GIGABYTE HD 5830 the card clearly stands out in some areas and not in others. The extra price might be an issue for some, but the high quality cooler of the MSI card could be a clear standout reason to spend the extra money.
The other ability with the card while not shown here is the ability to adjust the voltage of the core. This would yield even higher performance gains and while not available on the sample we got which was part of an early revision, we may end up with another one in the near future to look at which has the ability.
The voltage adjustment for some is priceless and means that the value of the product is increased even more. You can actually see over at Newegg.com that the card is listed with a note saying "OverVoltage Support by using latest AfterBurner 1.5.1".
The HD 5830 I personally feel is a good valued product and when you throw in the fact that it overclocks well when using a nice cooler like the Twin FrozrII one from MSI, its value is increased even more.
If you're looking for something that stands out from the pack when it comes to the HD 5830, this is one worth looking at; especially if you're interested in looking more into AfterBurner and its voltage adjustment ability.

Carleton hosts inaugural Jesse James Film FestivalJuly 28, 2014
In collaboration with the Northfield Historical Society, Carleton is pleased to host screenings of the first annual Jesse James Film Festival. All showings will be in the Weitz Center for Creativity Cinema and are free and open to the public (although donations are appreciated). The five films included in the festival were chosen because they depict the 1876 attempt by the infamous James-Younger Gang to rob Northfield's First National Bank.
Carleton's annual Lighten Up!

NEW YORK - If Ben Crenshaw were managing the Texas Rangers, he would have wagged his finger at the press late Tuesday night and said: "I have a goodfeeling about this."
He's not here, so I'll say it for him.
If the rest of the Rangers starters pitch as well as Aaron Sele did, Texas can make this a series.
If the Rangers keep hitting the way they did Tuesday night, they have a chance to pull off a major upset.
The Rangers did a lot of things right in Game 1. The thing they didn't do was score, which could develop into a problem if it continues through the weekend.
The 8-0 final suggests that the Yankees are set to cruise past the Rangers once more. A seven-game post-season winning streak against Texas presents evidence of dominance that is hard to dispute.
The fact is that one run in three games was not enough last year, and no runs on two hits in the series opener didn't exactly send the message that this year's more powerful Rangers team is bent on delivering.
"With our offense . . . to me, it's mind-boggling," manager Johnny Oates said. "You could score more runs than this by accident."
But there were moments when the Rangers were truly close to making Game 1 theirs.
Bernie Williams' running, sliding catch in right center robbed Juan Gonzalez of extra bases in the third, saving two runs. In the fourth, Todd Zeile hit a ball to the deepest part of Death Valley in left center that Ricky Ledee caught next to the 399-foot sign.
At The Ballpark in Arlington, that's a home run.
Two pitches later, Lee Stevens hit what looked to be a double into the right-field corner. It landed foul by less than a foot.
In the sixth, with Gonzalez on first and one out, Rafael Palmeiro hit a ball as hard as you could want to hit one. On its way into the right-field corner, it was intercepted by Tino Martinez, who materialized about three feet off the ground - or so it seemed - to turn a double into a double play.
"These are no slouches we're playing against, they're a great team," Palmeiro said. "You've got to give them credit. There won't be any carry-over from this to Thursday's game."
The Rangers have to show patience at the plate to have a chance, and they drew as many walks in the first inning off of Orlando Hernandez - two - as they did against three Yankee starters last fall.
Now let's look at the Yankees' runs.
They don't take a 1-0 lead in the second without Rusty Greer overrunning Ledee's slicing line drive and ducking his head as the ball sails to the wall for a double. How many blunders do you expect Greer to make in a five-game series? One should be his quota.
The Yankees don't score in the fifth if a 1-2 breaking pitch on the outside corner to Williams is called a strike by home plate ump Jim Joyce. A pitch in the same spot two pitches earlier had been called a strike.
And the Yankees don't pile on any runs in the sixth if Zeile uses his backhand to stop Paul O'Neill's two-out smash to his right. Instead, Zeile committed his 26th error of 1999 with an awkward attempt to field the ball straight on.
Now there are a lot of "ifs" at work here, admittedly. And there is one "if" that needs to be mentioned, because it could spell three-game sweep for Texas.
If the Rangers come out of Game 1 with one huge concern, it is that they have forgotten how to pitch to Bernie Williams.
Williams signed a seven-year, $87 million contract last winter, and he should have instantly sent a few million to the Rangers' pitching staff. He has made a career out of hitting Texas, but last October, the Rangers found a way to shut him down.
Williams went 0-for-11 in the Division Series in 1998. The Yankees won that series with the tail end of their batting order, not the heart.
Tuesday night all Williams did was drive in six runs. He had more RBIs from each side of the plate than the Rangers have managed in the last two post-seasons.
Williams' two-run double in the fifth turned a 1-0 Yankee advantage into a much more solid 3-0 lead. And his three-run opposite-field home run in the sixth sent loyal baseball fans scurrying for the parking lot, hurrying home to cheer on the Mets in their lights-out match with Arizona.
An I-45 World Series remains just as viable as a Subway Series. The Astros did their part in Atlanta on Tuesday.
The Rangers showed signs of knowing what it's going to take to knock off the Yankees.
Now all they have to do is step on home plate.
For a team that scored 945 runs in the regular season, second in the majors behind Cleveland, is that so much to ask?

Iraq Reconstruction: Better Data Needed to Assess Iraq's Budget Execution
Date: January 15, 2008
Creator: United States. Government Accountability Office.
Description: A letter report issued by the Government Accountability Office with an abstract that begins "The President's New Way Forward in Iraq identified Iraq's inability to spend its resources to rebuild infrastructure and deliver essential services as a critical economic challenge to Iraq's self-reliance. Further, Iraq's ability to spend its $10.1 billion capital projects budget in 2007 was one of the 18 benchmarks used to assess U.S. progress in stabilizing and rebuilding Iraq. This report (1) examines data the U.S. embassy used to determine the extent to which the government of Iraq spent its 2007 capital projects budget, (2) identifies factors affecting the Iraqi government's ability to spend these funds, and (3) describes U.S. government efforts to assist the Iraqi government in spending its capital projects funds. For this effort, GAO reviewed Iraqi government budget data and information on provincial spending collected by the U.S. Provincial Reconstruction Teams. GAO also interviewed officials from the departments of the Treasury, Defense, State, and other agencies and organizations."

Watch Out for Hidden Tax Traps Inside ETFs
Does ETF stand for "esoterically taxed fund"?
Many investors may just have finished wading through the tax reporting on commodity or currency funds for the first time and found it a slog. They also may have learned that an investment's taxation can by itself make the difference between a winner and a loser.
Exchange-traded funds, or ETFs, are bundles of assets that resemble a mutual fund but trade on an exchange like a stock. Their structure has enabled many of them to avoid distributing taxable capital gains, earning a reputation for minimizing investors' tax bills.
But the mad dash in ETFs lately has been into "alternative assets" like currencies and commodities. The investment researchers at Morningstar track 108 such ETFs with a total of $80 billion in assets; 42 are less than two years old. These funds are taxed so differently, and at such higher rates than traditional investments, that many investors now wish they had looked before they leaped.
"As ETFs have gone farther afield from stock indexes," says Robert Gordon of Twenty-First Securities, "their tax efficiency and simplicity are getting left behind."
Analyst Mariana Bush of Wells Fargo Advisors has estimated that commodity ETFs can be taxed in six different ways and currency ETFs in eight.
Commodity and currency ETFs often aren't "funds" at all, but trusts or limited partnerships that pass income and gains through to their investors. The income or gains may come from foreign currencies or physical commodities—but also from money-market instruments, forward contracts, swap agreements, futures contracts or other derivatives. There, the tax treatment may be utterly alien to stock or mutual-fund investors, who are used to paying 15% on qualified dividends and long-term capital gains.
U.S. Oil Fund, for instance, trades oil futures. The Internal Revenue Service requires open positions in futures contracts to be "marked to market" at year end. That means investors can owe capital-gains taxes on holdings the fund hasn't unloaded yet—"regardless of [whether those investors] sold their shares during the tax year or not," says U.S. Oil Fund's chief investment officer, John Hyland.
The fund is far from alone. At many other commodity and currency ETFs, paper profits are taxed at a blend of short-term and long-term capital-gains rates. That amounts to 23% for taxpayers in the highest federal bracket—on gains you haven't even received. Under IRS rules, you may even be liable for taxes on mark-to-market gains booked by the fund as long as 30 days after you sold it.
Or consider SPDR Gold Shares. The fund holds nearly 37 million ounces of gold, so the IRS taxes your capital gains at the 28% rate for collectibles—even if you have held your shares for more than one year. "We try really hard" to make sure investors are aware of that higher tax rate, says James Ross of the fund's sponsor, State Street Global Advisors.
The iPath single-currency funds, which track the British pound, the euro and the yen, are structured as exchange-traded notes, a form of debt. They accrue income as the value of each currency changes against the dollar. That leads to a tax treatment that Dave Nadig, director of research at Index Universe, calls "bizarre": Although the funds pay out no income until sale or maturity, any accrued interest is taxed annually at your highest marginal rate. Any gain when you sell is also taxed as ordinary income, not at the lower capital-gains rate.
"We have not gotten any negative feedback" from investors, says Christine Hudacko, a spokeswoman for iPath, because "we take care to highlight the different tax treatment."
Finally, ETFs organized as partnerships or trusts are likely to file a K-1 form, which can complicate your return and boost your tax-preparation bill. Lyle Benson, a certified public accountant at L.K. Benson in Baltimore, notes that his fee for preparing one client's tax return doubled from 2008 to 2009. This year, the client handed Mr. Benson a half-dozen K-1s for ETFs.
You shouldn't invest in a commodity or currency ETF at all unless you "thoroughly understand what type of income the transaction will generate and what your tax rate will be," says Robert Keebler, a CPA at Baker Tilly Virchow Krause in Appleton, Wis. That means plowing through the "Income Tax Considerations" section in the ETF's prospectus.
If necessary, get a tax adviser or someone at your brokerage house to explain it. With tax rates on the rise, you can't afford not to know whether you are getting into a can of worms.

Saudi Arabian Teen Arrested For Online Videos With American Blogger (theguardian.com) 208
Mazin Sidahmed and Nicky Woolf, reporting for The Guardian: A male Saudi Arabian teenager has been arrested in Riyadh over a series of online videos of conversations between him and a female Californian streaming-video star that went viral. A Riyadh police spokesperson, Colonel Fawaz Al-Mayman, said the teenager, known online as Abu Sin, was arrested on Sunday for engaging in "unethical behaviour" in videos with Christina Crockett, a popular broadcaster on the conversational live-streaming site YouNow. Abu Sin's real name is not known. "His videos received many comments and many of the commenters of the general public demanded for him to be punished for his actions," Al-Maymann added, according to the Saudi Gazette.

As a broadcaster on YouNow, she can invite her fans to join her broadcasts on split-screen, which is known as "guesting."
