Discussion in 'Colorado Football Message Board' started by 2HellNback, Dec 13, 2008.
I just read that too and immediately came here to hear thoughts, etc. Very surprised at this. Alabama gets Nick Saban one year and then Auburn gets the unproven Iowa State coach? Ouch. Where does this leave ISU?
You mean you guys aren't impressed with his 1-1 record against Hawk?. :lol:
All joking aside, I don't think its that bad of a hire.. Auburn is hiring Chizik on his resume at Auburn as a DC and at Texas as a DC.. What he did at Iowa State is meaningless..
I, too, came to AllBuffs as soon as I saw the scrawl on ESPN. I was hoping that someone had some great insights.
I don't get it. I just don't get it. Chizik was 2-10 last season; 3-9 in '07. Where was the sign that this guy can be a head coach? Can recruit? Can motivate?
I can't wait to see what the Auburn faithful have to say about this. Tuberville was not a fan favorite, but he beat Alabama for what? Six seasons in a row before this year? What are they smoking down there? :canabis:
He hasnt proven he can win in the Big 12, what makes them think he can win in the SEC. I realize this year the Big 12 was better than the SEC overall, but I would bet that Auburn regrets this decision about halfway through the season.
hmm. good. maybe he can come to CU as DC to rehab after he gets thoroughly trashed at AU?
I mean I wouldn't blame Chizik, I mean I would got the hell outta Iowa as fast as I could, too.... But Auburn, what the hell are you thinking? Really, fire Tuberville, a coach is has proven to lead, recruit, motivate, WIN... and hire an unproven DC, who has proven he can not build a program in the Big 12? At least Turner Gill has proven he can build a program... Yikes, this is going to be disastrous!:wow:
I wonder what Tiger fans are saying about this.. anyone have a link to their message board?
Also wonder if Turner Gill becomes a candidate for Iowa St. with his Big 12 ties?
I quess we can assume ISU won't be promoting one of their coordinators, since they didn't have any:huh: Another year in Ames and Chizik's career would have likely been at a dead end. He must feel like he won the lottery, it will be interesting to hear the terms of the deal.
The ISU search will be interesting as well. If I were them, I'd call McCarney and we if he wants to reconcile:smile2:
:wow: this guy chizik fires a couple of coaching staff members 2 weeks ago, then demoted his OC and DC to staff coaches, now he bails on ISU to go to Auburn. Even if ISU were to hire someone like "Throatslash" or John Blake as their next HC it would be a vast improvement of what just left.....
this is really odd to me. i wonder how all the bubbas down there feel about this? i worked with a guy not long ago who was a AU fan. im guessing that boy aint happy right about now.
Take a look at the article written by the publisher of ISU's rivals page.
Auburn Can't Count
Paul Clark
CycloneReport.com Publisher
Finally. After two years of holding my tongue and being a good soldier – or shill as KXNO's Marty & Miller not so inaccurately said – I can put it all out there regarding what I've thought from day one about former Iowa State football coach Gene Chizik.
When Chizik was hired, I told some media colleagues in confidence that his stay at Iowa State would be three years maximum. Either he would fail miserably and be fired or he would have a little success and jump on the very first opportunity that came along to move back south. Now I must admit, even I am surprised at the bizarre turn of events whereby he failed miserably at Iowa State and still got to jump on the very first opportunity that came along to move back south. What the hell Auburn is thinking is anybody's guess. And who cares. Because it just unburdened Iowa State of its most unprepared, overmatched and incompetent head coach of the modern era.
The red flags began popping up almost immediately. When Chizik said that winning is hard everywhere - that it was hard to win at Texas and Auburn, too - you knew he had no comprehension of the task at hand. Chizik's resume is built on winning with superior players, something anybody can do. It's not hard to win at Texas or Auburn; it's hard to lose. When he was given the third-highest assistant coach salary pool in the Big 12 and immediately set about hiring his old buddies for jobs they weren't qualified for at a pay rate twice what he could have gotten them for, you knew he was playing head coach instead of actually being one. When Chizik told the players he inherited that he wasn't going to come down to their level, his legacy of all-hat-no-cattle sound bites was in motion. Few of those players had ever been part of anything as wretched as the two seasons Chizik presided over. He'd have been fortunate to have them bring him up to their level. And when he made the players spend 20 minutes of the first spring practice of 2007 precisely lining up their helmets, you wondered if a real life Captain Queeg hadn't taken over the ISU football program.
Why they fired McCarney is beyond me... That guy had them pretty competitive and they had two shots at the BTN title, which is amazing in itself. Chizik will get swallowed whole by Saban....
It must be what he did as DC at those 2 schools because he did nothing at ISU, one of the most meaningless BCS football programs around. :huh:
we are 2-2 against ISU in the last 4.
same against Baylor, IIRC.
But ISU has been nothing on the national landscape over the past 20-30 years. That's what I was referring to.
20-30 years? Try infinity...and beyond!
Also...I think you said at some point to me that KU would not win another game after they beat the Buffs......not to be a vindictive SOB, but you were wrong, my friend.
Damn, if you're going to highlight every time someone is wrong on this site, we're all in deep ****.:lol:
Are we any better?
Umm... yes?
Seems to me that Auburn just basically said that nobody can possibly win at ISU, that a 5-19 record is actually a decent achievement there, and what Chizik showed as a DC made him a top candidate.
Of course, if that is their thinking, you have to wonder why they didn't hire McCarney, who had a better record at ISU and has also put together a pretty good record as an assistant... :huh:
Tuberville is going to come out of all this as a folk hero among the Auburn fan base...
About 3yrs ago, Woelk wrote an article on Patton asking if anyone could name another program at a major NCAA school that had a comparable record to RP over such a long timespan. Though he was probably thinking BBall, I emailed him and offered up McCarney.
McCarney had a record of just about .500 over 10yrs at ISU. I think that is pretty impressive, especially considering what went on their prior and post his tenure. After 10 yrs of mediocrity, some people tend to forget that is better than what they actually deserve.
I am a bubba and I am happy as a pig in ****.
so, you like this hire? why?
because he's a Bama guy
We now have a guy with two years head coaching experience with a 5-19 record against Coach Nick Saban.
I say he never wins a Iron Bowl errrrr Bama game and gets fired in three years.
Word is this is a Dye hire and many of his old players will be returning to 'coach'. Don't expect Eric Ramsey to be there.
Actually, I do recall saying that, but what does it have to with this discussion?
And you either dug very deep to find out where I said that or else you have a very good memory. :smile2: Actually, that may have been on chat where I said that....
Lowder probably owed Chizik a favor.

Sonja had to go to Fredericia overnight for work so the three of us drove over two bridges to Jutland to meet her there (she went early by train with her colleagues). We strolled the ramparts and viewed some folk dancing near a visiting cruise ship.

Ok here is the next chapter. Sorry it's been awhile but oh well here it is. It's a lot longer than my previous chapters and I'm half asleep at the moment so it's probably got half a dozen plot holes and grammatical errors, spelling mistakes etc. Oh well. Read on if you dare.
*Insert someone else disclaimer here*
"No." Said the Hatter without a moment's hesitation.
"No?" Asked Time clearly taken back. "Did you just refuse my offer? Do you know how many people refuse my offers?" He was beginning to grow large and ethereal, horrifying tentacles growing from his back flying all around. Chessur vanished to avoid one particular appendage that came his way, and Thackery was grabbed by a horrible, deep-purplish one. He struggled to get out, slime beginning to coat the poor hare.
"Let him go!" Yelled the Hatter.
Time's face began to distort and slowly formed a dragon's muzzle smoke drifting wistfully from its nostrils. It roared "NO ONE HAS THE RIGHT TO REFUSE THE OFFERS OF A GOD! YOU SHALL DO AS I COMMAND."
"You miss understand," The Hatter's voice was becoming a rush words muddled all together. A tentacle slithered across the rough Earth towards him and still Time grew. "IwasnottryingtosayIdidnotwish-"He jumped to avoid the creeping Kraken "to,,sogenerously."
Time reverted to his Prince Charming style looks, tentacles retracted quicker than the eye could see. Thackery fell to the ground with a HUMPH and Chessur returned, this time floating just above the Hatter's right ear. Mally looked up at him fear showing clearly on her normally oh-so-courageous eyes.
"Oh." He said cheerfully, "I wish you had told me that from the start." He walked forward and pinched the Hatter's cheek playfully "Could have avoided all this mess. So what do you want me to give you in return? I would have felt Alice would be the only thing you could think about."
"I couldn't do that to her. She left for her own world because she needed to see her family. She will eventually return, I know she will, but I will not drag her back here just to make me happy." His eyes turned to a deep black and he looked down at the floor. "She'll come back when she will."
"Awww!" Said Time mockingly. "That's adorable. You waiting for your love to come back. Like a woman."
"Hey!" Yelled Mally her sword out and ready for a confrontation she could never win.
"ONCE AGAIN!" Yelled Time, "Vermin. Shall Not. ADDRESS ME!" A third eye grew from his skull and flew straight at the Hatter turning slightly upwards so as to look at Mally. It spoke with an ominous grating voice although no observable point of emanation could be seen. "I could destroy you without lifting a finger."
The Hatter grabbed the eye and crushed it in his hand although only black smoke could be seen coming from it. "So you want me to go after the Red King. Why would you want me to do it, surely you could do it without trying."
Time grinned slowly, a demented chuckle coming from him. "Unfortunately for us all, I am not able to enter the realm of the Red King. Nor may any of my people enter this realm. No you may have had annoyed Mr Hightopp; but the guardians of the Red King angered me so greatly that I threw them out of time and space, and now that he is waking up...I cannot follow."
"Then you would be most inclined to have a cup of tea while the world ends, Thackery will be more then happy to supply the drink or drinks if you lord wishes to have multiple mouths at the time of his drinking." He gestured towards Thackery who did not at all look like he wanted to supply Time with anything. "And unfortunately for us all drinking is what must be done as we were not in anticipation of a tea party and therefore have only brought stuff for drinking and not in fact for eating."
Time stared blankly at the Hatter for a few moments before commanding "Chessur, please explain to Mr Hightopp what I actually mean."
Chessur said in a reluctant monotone "When Time says that he cannot go he doesn't mean that you cannot go. Time is the Master of Reality..."
"But outside reality," Continued Time "I have no power. So I will be sending you to do the job for me."
"Why me? Surely their must be hundreds better than me."
"Hundreds? Ha. Try millions. Mr Hightopp I wish you would start understanding your own importance. You are nothing. An invisible speck of dust on an invisible speck of dust inside an infinite darkness of absolutely nothing. You are simple. I am so complex the universe can barely allow my existence. I want you to understand that the only reason I lower myself to your level is because I can." For emphasis he dropped to one knee and grew to be about 100 metres tall.
The Hatter laughed. A hollow laugh that barely hid the horrid feelings he was having in refusing to let someone bring Alice back, but it was a laugh none the less.
"What's so funny?" Said Time standing back at his usual size.
"You're lying. From what I've heard about you from Chessur and those few times we've managed to talk I have learnt a few things. Principally that you like to make yourself seem so much more powerful then you actually are. You have a huge superiority complex, you feel that you're shining, spiffing, supreme. But you are actually quite dependent on us mere mortals, aren't you?"
"DO NOT TRY MY PATIENCE." He transformed rapidly into a huge bird like creature with snakes for feathers.
"Admit it!" Roared the Hatter, "And I shall help you."
"Fine!." The bird-thing spat, before resembling itself into it's human persona. "You have to be the one to do it."
"Why me?" The Hatter took his hat off but allowed Mally to jump to his shoulder. He began to twirl it on his finger, "Why does it have to be me?"
"Because Destiny..." Time struggled to get the next part out "...said so."
At this the Hatter and Chessur burst into fits of laughter, Mally quite confused had to ask "What's so funny?"
Before either of them could answer however Time yelled "Don't you tell her! Do you accept Hatter. Will you go to the world outside this world."
"What's in it for me, your lord changey?" Asked the Hatter, mostly to be annoying.
"Ok, you don't want Alice to come to you, than how about this. I will send you to her."
The Hatter looked straight into the eyes of Eternity "You'd do that?"
"Yes. It'll be your reward."
The Hatter's vision slowly scanned over the eyes of his friends. First to Mally standing on his shoulder her expression equal parts happiness and gloom. He knew what she was thinking. His gaze than fell to Thackery who looked quite cross at the suggestion of the Hatter leaving Underland. The Hatter managed a weak smile. The March Hare and he had been together for so many years that they were like brothers. Mally and him were close, but Thackery and him were beyond close. Chessur grin was the next thing he saw, God he hated that grin. He turned towards Time who looked quite impatient for an answer (which is kind of odd considering he's eternal and can time travel). Once last glance towards his friends and then he turned back to Time.
I'm so sorry Thackery, he thought, a single tear rolling down his face "Yes. I take the deal."
Thackery looked heart-broken and hopped off into the forest as fast as he could. "Thackery!" The Hatter tried to run after him but crashed into an invisible wall. Well he thought it was an invisible wall until it turned into a wing and he realised it was apart of Time.
The Hatter fell to the floor and when he looked across from him he saw Mally standing next to him with tears in her eyes "It's ok Hatter, I understand."
"Oh you mortals are so emotional! Honestly you'll all get to see each other in death anyway, I don't see what you're complaining about."
The Hatter got to his feet, not noticing as Mally darted into his trouser pocket. She was going to have one last adventure with the Hatter. "Ok." He said trying to hold back the tears. "I'm ready."
"Okydoky" Time raised his hand and walked forward towards the Hatter. "Chessur will be accompaning you on this trip. He can explain all the particulars and the overall path to the Red King."
"Tarrant this is going to be dreadfully hard. You need to be 100% understanding." It was the Chesire Cat his grin faltering for a moment holding back great grief. "Just because you do this doesn't mean you will get to see Alice again. There is a great chance that you will die. Are you sure you want that?"
The Hatter was balling now, tears running down his face. "No, but if the Red King wakes up everyone dies. Not just here...but in Alice's world too. I won't let that happen. I won't let her die!"
"Awww touching." Time stepped closer once more his hand barely away from the Hatter's chest. Chessur grabbed hold of the Hatter's arm preparing for the moment of take-off. "This will hurt...a lot." And the last thing the Hatter heard before he vanished into an immense void was the sound of Time's laughing.
The Hatter found himself covered in sand his hat at least 2 meters away from him. Picking himself off the ground he tried as best he could to get rid of the horrible, gritty substance off his clothes and walked to get his hat. If he was going to save the universe he was going to do it in his best. Unfortunately he did this quite badly, stumbling around and almost falling over a couple of times. Thankfully he did manage to get to his hat.
He picked it off the ground and found the Chesire Cat's head right underneath. "Oh thankyou ,Tarrant. I couldn't find my way out of there." Chessur vanished from the sand and reappeared hovering above the Hatter's left shoulder. "So this is it. Un-reality."
"Kind of sandy. Dry. A desert. The sky's not even blue. I'm guessing there'll be no beach then. That's kind of bad. I liked beaches." The Hatter was still stumbling around trying to gain his balance "Actually I'm feeling quite happy. Wasn't I very depressed moments ago."
"That's the dimension travelling talking. You'll feel quite strange for a couple of hours like after very strong tea. Don't worry. It should get better." Explained Chesire. They both just stood their waiting for some sort of sign of what to do. And then they heard a sneeze.
They both turned to each other. "That wasn't you was it?"
"I think..." Said Chessur "That the noise came from your pocket."
The Hatter quite confused reached into his pocket and pulled out a certain Dormouse. "Mally! How did you get here?"
"I think it's sort of obvious, Tarrant. She got into your pocket before we left and stowed away with us."
"I think that's what I did." Said Mally trying not to hiccup. "But I'm not sure."
"Well as long as you're here you might as well come with us. I'll probably yell at you in a few hours but we'll cross that road when we come to it." Said the Hatter cheerfully. "Now what?"
"I think you two should get some sleep, so as you don't go around falling over everything we come across this trip. You both look beat."
"Ok," Squeaked Mally as she curled up into a ball. "But before nap-time I want to know what's so funny about Destiny telling Time what to do."
"Oh that!" The Hatter started to laugh. "Oh that well the thing about Destiny is that Time and her are sort of very close."
"How close?" Asked Mally.
Chessur was the one to answer "She is his wife." And with that our heroes dissolved into fits of laughter before falling over from exhaustion.

Jakob Mohn
Jakob Neumann Mohn (31 May 1838 – 16 February 1882) was a Norwegian statistician.
Personal life[edit]
He was born in Bergen as a son of Albert Henrik Mohn (1811–1894) and Ida Neumann (1814–1864). Originally named Jacob, he changed the spelling. He was a brother of Henrik and Emanuel Mohn. On the maternal side, he was a grandson of bishop Jacob Neumann. In July 1866 he married Valeria Paasche (1843–1912). He was a granduncle of Frank and Albert Henrik Mohn,[1] and since his daughter Hanna married physician and politician Nils Yngvar Ustvedt, Mohn was a grandfather of Hans Jacob Ustvedt.[2]
He finished his secondary education at Bergen Cathedral School in 1855, and graduated from the Royal Fredercik University with the cand.jur. degree already in 1859. He was soon hired in the Statistics Office, and together with Anders Nicolai Kiær he led its transition into an independent research directorate, renamed Det statistiske Centralbureau in 1876. Norway as a country implemented the use of large, quantitative statistics in politics quite early. The initiator was the priest and researcher Eilert Sundt, and Mohn. Mohn was also involved in the workers' society Christiania Arbeidersamfund, and through his research on child labour among other things, he capacitated social reform. His last work was Norges Land og Folk, requisitioned by the Norwegian Parliament in 1874, and meant to be a grand reference work. However, he never finished a single volume, as he died in February 1882 in Kristiania. His work was carried on by Anders Nicolai Kiær and Boye Strøm.[1]

No Way
SUBMITTED: Friday, June 12, 2015POSTED: Friday, June 12, 2015
I have hired Mr. Yow, and he was a top notch attorney and was extremely professional and helpful. Answered phone calls in a very timely matter. He listened to me and gave me extremely sound advice and handled my case with the upmost care and concern. I can't believe for a second that Mr. Yow had ever displayed any kind of incompetence or was nothing more than diligent and advocated for his client. I would hire him again and have even reffered people who feel the same way.

Year two of law school
SUBMITTED: Monday, April 07, 2014POSTED: Monday, April 07, 2014
Fancy that. I am doing well in my second year of law school and have had several successful legal internships now and someone is saying my story is false. To this day I still tell the people I meet and work with how I got into this business and they are all amazed at the royal screwing I got. Since it is illegal for me to give legal opinions until I am certified by the bar, I can continue to give my personal opinion on my experience with Mr. Yow. My personal opinion is I did not receive professional representation nor do I believe I got enough representation for my money. However in one year you will be able to find out my legal opinion since I will be certified by the bar. Hire my ex-wife's attorney. Tim Barnes did such a great job that only now am I beginning to understand what a great attorney he is. He is really who I have to thank for my divorce. My divorce wrapped up by me asking my ex-wife to ask her attorney to work on things. I couldn't get Eric to respond or file any paperwork and he had been wasting time for nearly a year which wouldn't matter unless you were in the military and the five year mark is when a spouse gets part of your retirement. The divorce wasn't even contested for longer than three months, and after that was just waiting on him for eight more months. Fortunately she took pity on me and had her attorney get the paperwork done in the interest of having a long term good relationship for our daughter. Here is Tim Barnes contact info. Definitely hire him. She got represented for $3,000 from an experienced attorney and I paid $5,000 for an absolute s**t show. (((REDACTED WEBSITE)))

#3 UPDATE Employee ..inside information
Baseless allegations against a fine lawyer
SUBMITTED: Wednesday, June 19, 2013POSTED: Wednesday, June 19, 2013
This report is simply not true. I have personal, inside information about the case and know, firsthand, that the report is full of lies. Mr. Yow is a fantastic, virtuous attorney who worked diligently for many hours on this case. The client was a challenge to work with, but Mr. Yow worked diligently to do so, preparing with much effort for pretrial negotiation, discovery, trial, and every other element to this protracted litigation, including returning every phone call and email. Far more work was completed than the retainer covered, but no bills were sent in addition to the retainer, in order to maintain good will with the difficult client.
At trial, the judge ruled against the client because of how the judge felt about the client and his testimony - not how Mr. Yow performed. Mr. Yow did not "forget" evidence - some evidence is inadmissible (i.e. the statement from client's mother). Lay people don't understand the rules of evidence. Everyone wants to blame the lawyer when they lose. The client lost by no fault of the attorney; that's for sure. I cannot provide additional information to explain, on account of confidentiality. The Court file is public record, however, and reflects the truth of the matter.
The harder truth to handle is that most judges don't care about fault in the divorce when it comes to who is the better parent to receive custody. If a judge hears that a spouse cheated or spent too much on credit, he'll grant a divorce if the allegations amount to legal grounds for divorce. The custody side of the litigation is a different story. If the judge believes a parent to be a bad parent (on drugs, abusive, etc.), then the better parent will likely get primary custody. However, at trial a judge will weigh credibility of the parties when hearing their testimony along with other evidence.
A judge will make the decision based on his/her own interpretation of what is in the best interests of the child/children. In this particular case, the judge made the decision based on testimony and evidence - just like in every case. Mr. Yow has an impeccable reputation and relationship with the Court. At no time would any judge in Montgomery County rule against a party because of the lawyer they chose.
I would hire Mr. Yow again in a heartbeat, with confidence.

Reagan's emphasis on guns over butter drew sharp rebukes over the weekend from leading congressional Republicans and Democrats, who vowed that Congress would reorder priorities somewhat by taking from defense to protect many social programs. "Our budget is fair and realistic," Reagan said Saturday in his weekly radio address to the nation. "It's a budget that will position America to take full advantage of the (economic) recovery." But Sen. Edward M. Kennedy, D-Mass., argued that Reagan's proposals for reducing federal health care costs are "the newest example of the administration's continuing insensitivity and unfairness toward workers and the elderly." Reagan's $848.5 billion budget plan for the fiscal year beginning Oct. I would curtail spending on subsidized housing, meal subsidies for children, Aid to Families with Dependent Children and food stamps; postpone cost-of-living increases in benefits for the blind and disabled, and increase out-of-pocket medical costs paid by people covered by Medicare and Medicaid. The budget, which is to be released formally on Monday, also proposes to hold total spending on an array of other domestic programs — when lumped together — at 1983 levels. Although spending on individual programs might rise, fall or stay the same, total spending would be $115 billion, compared with $116 billion this year. Overall, the budget calls for a $43.3 billion increase in spending over 1983. with nearly three-quarters going to the Defense Department, which would see its spending ceiling rise from $208.9 billion this year to $238.6 billion in 1984. Speaking to a group of columnists on Friday, Reagan said he was "as stubborn as I always was" about seeking certain cuts in domestic programs. White House Chief of Staff James A. Baker III said the president will remain firm on his defense increases. Reagan "is not prepared to start bargaining on that figure," Baker said. petails of other .spending plans were not made available Saturday, but administration officials conceded there would be modest reductions in some programs for the poor. Sketchy highights of the budget, made available to leaders of Congress on Friday, were obtained by The Associated Press. Complete budget documents — including precise estimates of proposed spending changes for each federal program between 1983 and 1984 — were being withheld until Monday. Edwin L. Dale Jr., a spokesman for the White House budget office, said spending on food stamps, welfare and supplemental income payments to the elderly, blind and disabled would be "slightly lower than in 198;}." but he declined to provide specific figures. See BUDGET, Page 8A GVTC eyes new data on bills By SANDRA JACKSON Staff writer Customers of the Guadalupe Valley Telephone Cooperative (GVTC) will be seeing a change in their phone bills beginning Tuesday. Some telephone users will actually see a decrease in the bill, but most customers will only notice a change in the rate structure, Ken Brannies, GVTC general manager, said. Due to the new federal deregulation in the telephone industry, telephone companies are now required to separate charges for uses of telephone equipment from charges for local service. The service charge gives the customer access to the phone company's switching equipment, poles, lines, etc., while the instrument charge is a rental and maintenance fee for the telephone itself. If the customer owns his own telephone, he is not required to pay the instrument fee. But he will no longer receive free maintenance and repair service from the telephone company. "Repairs will be just like your friendly Maytag repairman," Brannies said. adding that customers could bring their telephones into the GVTC' service center for an estimate and repair work, or the company could send out a serviceman. "But that's where it gets ex-pensive," he added, explaining that trip charges for a man and vehicle could run as much as $35 to $40 per hour. "Whereas, before, you never got a bill if your telephone went bad," he said. This is part of the federal government's effort to encourage competition and thus, lower charges. "We fought it, but we didn't win," said Brannies, who feels the new system will cost the customer more money — not less. The rate changes will result in an overall annual revenue decrease of $2,610, or a .04 percent decrease in See TELEPHONE, Page HA Cassell named Junior Miss Winning walk Catherine Ellen Cassell obviously enjoys her "victory walk" Saturday in the Civic Center after being named Texas' 1983 Junior Miss Right photo, Kingsville's contestant, Lauri Lynn Staff photos by Cindy Richardson Whittington, who spent part of the week in the hospital and was unable to compete, gets a hug from Seguin's Kristi McClatchy By DYANNEFRY Staff writer The screams in the parents* gallery all but drowned out the ones on stage when Catherine Ellen Cassell of Waco captured the title of Texas Junior Miss Saturday night. Tracey Dawn Estes, 1982 Junior Miss, handed over the official medallion in the New Braunfels Civic Center. Cassell.' a senior at Midway High School, will represent Texas in the American Junior Miss pageant at Mobile. Alabama. But just winning the Texas contest makes her eligible for $85,350 in scholarships to various colleges around the state. The new Junior Miss was also the winner of the Simplicity Fashion Show. and took the Youth Fitness award in the Thursday night preliminaries. Cindy Michelle Angelcyk, representing the community of Aldine, is first runner-up She also took the talent award in the Thursda\ prelims, dazzling the crowd in a Victorian swimsuit with a novelty dance routine to "Seaside Rendezvous." Second runner-up Joann Celeste Marbach of San Antonio took the Revlon Personal Style award, and beat Cassell in youth fitness at Friday's preliminaries. Ixiura Elizabeth Harris of l^aredo was third runner-up, and was rated tops on poise and appearance in Friday's preliminaries. Last of the lineup was Dana Sue Burg of Fredericksburg, appearing as the Hill Country Junior Miss. The Spirit of Junior Miss award — perhaps the most coveted of all, since its recipient is chosen by the contestants themselves — went to Becky Wright of Hamilton. Lynn Marie Gall of Killeen came in first in Scholarship and Achievement, followed by New Braunfels' own Brenda Borchers as runner-up. Gall was also first runner-up in the Simplicity style show. while Ixiri Haynes was second runner-up. Each girl was required to select and sew a Jiffy pattern, and they were judged on fit. appearance, and use of color and fabric. Kelli McGonagill of Lindale High School, representing the Ea t Texas program, won the Kraft recipe award. She took honors for poise and appearance Thursday night And on Friday, she w on the talent award with her dance routine, "Auditions." Even before she knew she d get the title, the new Junior Miss showed her leadership qualities. After all the competition was over, the judges stayed out a long time. Cassell helped lighten those last tense moments by presenting tokens of appreciation to Junior Miss Program President I^arry Phillips and pageant choreographer Joan Slocum. See Related photos. Pages 8A, IB A particularly emotional moment came when I .a un Lynn Whittington, Junior Miss from Kingsville, was invited on stage to hear the judges' decision. W'hittington became ill last week, and lay in a hospital while the other Junior Misses converged on New Braunfels for a full week of activities. She recovered enough to make the trip and sit in the audience Saturday night, but Cassell brought her on stage, saying, "She's still a Junior Miss and we love her." There were awards given out to the adults that made this all happen, too. Donna I.ehr, chairman of the New Braunfels program, was recognized for doing more than anyone else to add to the image of Junior Miss. San Antonio got the award for the most outstanding local program. It's one of the biggest in the state, chaired by Linda Bailey. Local nightclub fined after surprise visitInside Texas Junction had a brush with the Texas Alcoholic Beverages Commission earlier this month. But the club is still open for business, and still serving drinks, said co-owner Jim Stepan. "They (the TABC) hit us with a $2,400 fine," said Stepan, one of three business partners in the night spot at 262 W. Jahn. He' thought the fine seemed a bit steep, but he said the dub would pay it. The alternative was to close for 16 days, Stepan said. "We want to uphold the law; we don't want any trouble." Stepan seemed fairly sure that a couple of TJ's employees had broken the law, though he didn't think it added up to a $2,400 offense. None of the dub's owners were present when the TABC made its surprise visit on the morning of Jan. 15. The way Stepan understands it, it was after 2:15 a m.; there was one customer still in the building, and the bartender-acting manager hadn't picked up that customer's glass. "According to (the bartender) he had finished his drink,'' Stepan said. The bartender, and one of the dub waitresses, had drinks of their own behind the bar, and those weren't empty yet, said the dub owner. And when the bartender went into the office to put the cashbox away, an off-duty employee was found asleep on the couch, with an unfinished drink nearby. It added up to four violations, Stepan said. TABC official Louis Yeager said he couldn't comment on any charges being filed until papers were served.

But chances are it w on't be quite like it was before. This is true even in the most treatable of cases. Treatment in itself may force a patient to drastically rearrange his schedule, cutting work time or perhaps quitting a job altogether When the patient lives some distance away from major treatment centers (in New Braunfels, for example, or at Canyon Uke), just getting there and back may be a bigger problem than the disease "Many times the patient's own family has to take off from work (to drive him)," said l^anita Ross at the Senior Citizens' Center. "When they have to go in five times a week (and some patients do), this is hard on the family." The American Cancer Society is here to help. Recently, the Comal Unit organized the Free Wheeler Driving Corps. Seven volunteers were trained and are now on call to drive patients who can't drive themselves: to appointments in New Braunfels, San Antonio or elsewhere in the area. "It's all volunteer, so we can't very well take them to M D. Anderson in Houston," said Steve Werner, field representative for ACS District 5. Drivers will use their own vehicles to transport patients, with calls being referred through the Senior Citizens Center. The Comal unit won't be able to reimburse for mileage, but drivers can file it as a charity deduction on their income tax returns. "We've had the idea for a long time," said Ross, w ho has signed on as chairman of the transportation committee In the past, individual volunteers have helped some senior citizens — cancer patients and others — make their appointments at doctors' offices and treatment centers. Some of those same people have joined the cancer society's organized unit now. As the program gets under way, Ross hopes to attract more drivers. "... as many as would like to," she said. Since some people may have conflicts on certain days, ifs always good to have extra names on the list. Ideally, a driver won't be asked to work more than one day a week. They may sometimes need to work in pairs, especially when a patient is receiving chemotherapy See CANCER, Page 8A ;

Simon Page, leasing and finance manager at VW-Audi, says of car buyers being offered finance by a dealer: 'The view of many is, 'He's not a money specialist so there must be some hidden mark-up.' '
Buying the car and arranging finance at a competitive rate in one place is still alien in Britain. 'We go to a bank to borrow money and a car dealer for the car. As an industry we've got a lot of work to do,' says Mr Page.
'People won't change unless we offer varied and innovative products. The rates you can get through a dealer are far superior to anything you can get from a bank.'
Most people buy a new car on some type of hire purchase. As a financing medium it has been around for almost 50 years and we feel comfortable with it, says Peter de Rousset Hall, of Ford Credit.
But there is a small shift away from HP towards what is variously described as personal contract or personal leasing, which at present accounts for about 5 per cent of new car buying. It is very popular in the United States, where nearly all new cars are bought under personal contract.
But Mr Page says it is a much more complex way of buying a car than HP.
Over the last couple of years all the leading car manufacturers have launched personal leasing schemes. Ford's Options, Vauxhall's Choices, Rover's Select and VW-Audi's Private Contract are personal contract schemes. Peugeot is monitoring their progress before deciding whether to do something similar.
These are all aimed at the individual rather than fleet user, but the terms are similar to those of fleet leasing or contract hire in that the user does not actually own the car, and also lay down certain terms of use, the most important of which is mileage. Most deals are over two years, with a maximum 12,000 miles a year.
The aim is to give low-cost, fixed-price motoring. The user pays a monthly sum that covers only the depreciation of the car and interest. A value is placed on the car at the end of the contract period and it is the difference between that and the purchase price which is being paid off. This is why a company such as Mercedes-Benz - whose secondhand values are recognised as among the best in the business - can make out a case for being as affordable as a Ford, Vauxhall or Rover.
Although a 1.8 litre Mercedes-Benz 190E costs pounds 16,745 new, it is still worth an estimated pounds 11,230 after two years and 24,000 miles, so that the user is paying off only pounds 5,515 at pounds 235 a month.
Mercedes-Benz Finance puts the depreciation at 33 per cent - while Ford, Vauxhall and Rover quote depreciation levels of between 55 and 64 per cent. Buy a pounds 10,000 Ford and it will be worth pounds 4,000 after two years and the user will have had to pay out for pounds 6,000.
With any of these schemes, the customer has nothing to put down on his next car, because all he or she has done is pay off interest and depreciation - unless the car is worth more than the previously agreed 'minimum guaranteed future value'.
But, as Mr Page points out, VAG's Private Contract can incorporate all maintenance charges, including replacing tyres, and a substitute vehicle if your own car should be off the road.
The first customers to take up Ford's Options, introduced two years ago, are now coming to the end of their deals. 'We're pleased with what's happening at the end of the contracts. Customers are renewing,' says Mr de Rousset Hall.
However, John Brown, a director with NWS Bank, one of the country's biggest finance companies, believes that personal leasing is more talked about than actually done.
'A lot of people are suggesting it will come,' he says, pointing out that actual leasing schemes are tax-driven. Business customers are taking them up as an alternative to a company-provided car, perhaps funding it with their employer's cash alternative.
Neil Tomkin, motor marketing director with Lombard North Central, says: 'It's early days yet. Leasing is a huge success in the US, where the credit concept is far more sophisticated than in this country. Whether we will adopt the 'lease, don't own' culture of the States is hard to forecast.'
Despite the high profile that personal contract schemes have, hire purchase is still used for at least 50 per cent of car purchases in Britain. It is the ideal financial method for people who want to own the car they are paying for.
But many people still think that if they go to their car dealer as a cash customer, having arranged their finance elsewhere, then they will be able to haggle to get a better deal. And that, says Mr Tomkin, is not really true.
'A building society loan is going to work out at around 23 per cent. A hire purchase deal done through a dealer backed by a finance house can work out at between 16 and 22 per cent, depending on the size of the loan and how much deposit you put down and the repayment time.'
The most common HP deal involves a 20 per cent deposit and a three-year repayment. The reason that finance houses can offer better value than pre-arranged loans is that finance houses keep a stake in what is bought until the last payment, says Mr Tomkin.
Another advantage is that since they specialise in motor finance and are represented inside the dealerships, finance houses have much closer contact than a bank or building society, whose loan might be used for anything from a boat to a new kitchen or exotic holiday.
It pays to shop around and if one of the cars on your short-list is under offer on low-cost finance, then go for it. Low-cost finance is where the manufacturer is sponsoring or subsidising the deal, and the results can often be spectacular.

Previous Challenge Entry (Level 1 – Beginner)
Topic: Ohhh…. (02/04/10)
TITLE: Almost Home
By Kathleen Tollifson
"I thought you knew where you were going." she challenged. Just then we hit another rut. I heard a clang as a hubcap was knocked loose. I stopped the car and jumped out to retrieve it, taking a minute to scan the area to see if I could get my bearings.
The decision to return to our home town had not been easy. We were looking for our new house, which we had rented sight unseen. The familiar southwestern landscape looked almost surreal, with broad vistas of sand meeting a limitless sky. The thorny prickly pear and imposing saguaros, standing at vigilant attention, were not inviting. The intense afternoon heat shimmered off the sand in waves. Before the real estate boom of the 1980's, dirt roads complete with ruts and potholes, were commonplace. I had not seen a road this rutted since then. I glanced at the paper that I had jotted the address on. Squinting into the bright sun, I thought I saw a house in the distance. I felt a flicker of hope at this encouraging sign. Ducking back into the coolness of the car, we headed for the next stage of our journey.
As the features of the house came into focus, I began to feel uneasy. A stately old plantation home complete with a lush formal garden stood proudly in the middle of the desert. It seemed very out of place. The sprawling magnolias dripping Spanish moss were a stark contrast to the arid countryside we had just traveled. The car rolled to a stop by the wrought iron gate in front. Neither of us seemed to be breathing as we stared in amazement at the colonial scene before us. A gardener appeared from behind the sprawling home carrying a hose. He spotted our car and crossed the broad expanse of lawn to reach us. As he smiled a greeting, my expression betrayed my surprise. He leaned down to greet us through the car window. "Can I help you ma'am?"
I pulled out my strip of paper and looked doubtfully at the address. "1517 Via el Destino?"
His eyes twinkled. "Nope."
I didn't have the courage to look at my sister. She was furious with me for not getting directions before we left. "I must have made a wrong turn. I was sure that it was out this way. " My voice trailed off.
"I know where to find what you're looking for." he offered. "It's not far, but you won't find it the way you were headed."
I looked at him hopefully. "Things sure have changed around here. How do we get there?"
"There's a shortcut right over there." He pointed and a newly paved driveway appeared just past the gardens. I looked in amazement, afraid to ask how it got there. The asphalt was as smooth as glass with no bumps or blemishes. The black ribbon of road glided effortlessly toward the horizon. I wondered if I was seeing a mirage. When I glanced back, I could almost believe that the house I saw in the distance had been there all along. With another peek in that direction and I realized that the house fronted on the ocean. My rational mind noted that there wasn't an ocean within 400 miles.
Feeling disoriented, but eager to move on, we thanked the helpful gardener. My sister was very quiet, a welcome change. The car floated smoothly along the road. It seemed only minutes when we pulled in front of the house, an elegant, modernist style structure with sleek steel railings, and amazing windows that stretched from floor to ceiling. Waves crashed on the rock outcroppings in a rhythmic pattern. It was the house of my dreams, with ocean frontage. We gathered some things and headed toward the front door. Before we could reach for the handle, it was pulled open by the gardener dressed in surfing shorts and flip-flops. His face broke into a smile and he extended his hand.
"Welcome to 1517 Destiny Way. We have been expecting you. I know you will enjoy your stay."

31 Part 3
On light feet, Spook ran over to where Anna stood stunned, wondering just what it was she had done. Anna was looking at the slim silver ring that Matt had pressed onto her finger, and she was very pale, as though in shock.
"Congratulations!" she said, hugging her friend. Matt had got back to his feet, and was standing there looking awkward and embarrassed. Neither of them had ever seen him like that before, and it was a surprise. He always seemed so in control, in the past. But then again, he had never had to deal with issues of the heart in the past. He had never fallen in love before.
"Thanks," said Anna. Her mind was far away.
"I knew you were close, but I never expected this! When's the wedding?" Spook's excited chatter brought Anna back to reality with a bump.
A wedding?!?! Somehow it hadn't quite sunk in before just what getting married meant. Would she have to wear a white dress?
"When we know, I'll tell you," promised Matt, smiling. "You can be bridesmaid, if you want." Spook beamed. Though a bit of a tomboy, she loved the idea of being something important at a wedding, as she never had before.
"And Delorfinde? Can she, too?" Spook persisted. Anna looked up.
"I need to tell Kathryn, and Callie." Since she had left school, and Kat had gone off to university, Anna hadn't been in touch with her friends so much. However, she was sure they wouldn't mind if Spook and Del took the bridesmaids' jobs. They weren't like that.
"Good point," said Matt, looking stricken. He realised that he knew nothing of Anna's life nowadays. Who was she friends with now? He did not have a clue, to be completely honest.
While Anna ran off to phone her two childhood friends, Spook stayed and looked Matt squarely in the eye.
"You will honour this marriage, won't you?" she said seriously. "Anna's a good person - if you mess her around, I'll mess up your face." She raised a hand, and Shifted ever so slightly so that she had claws instead of fingernails. "I'm serious."
"I know you are," said Matt, softly. He saw the fierce loyalty in Spook's eyes. How was he to know how close the two girls had got during his absence, as Spook coaxed Anna awake each night during horrific nightmares? How was he to know what bonds had been forged as the two girls fought to overcome the grief they both felt after the loss of their parents? The truth was that he didn't.
Anna returned. "Matt?" she said, cautiously.
"What is it, my darling?" he said.
"Urgh! Don't say that!" she protested, and he laughed.
"All right, I won't. But what's your question?"
"How old are you?" she asked. He went pale suddenly. It was a question he had been expecting for a long time, but had hoped never to have to answer.
"I was human for fifteen years," he began. "The Celryn Turned me when I was fifteen years and three months old." His face wore a faraway expression, as he gazed back over the years to a time long gone. "I remained as one of them for ten years, before the Telcontar Turned me to what I am now. That was twenty years ago, or will be tomorrow. I have had an existence for forty five years, but among my people I would only be counted as nineteen years old. Twenty tomorrow, in fact."
Anna nodded. "Well, I'm nineteen today, so we're about the same age." She grinned. "I know you don't get any older, not as fast as a human, anyway, so it's probably a good thing I'm half fairy."
With a wicked smile, she lit a flame in her hand and pulled his chin so that his mouth was open. Breathing the fire gently into his mouth, she closed his lips gently, sealing them with a kiss. Spook looked away, embarrassed.
And Matt gasped. Because the flame that his beloved placed inside the casket of his mouth was pure, unadulterated love.
She had quite literally given him her heart. For as everyone knows, the heart of a fairy - even one who is half human - is made of fire, and their soul of stars.

Widely regarded as the greatest live album ever released, the Band's Rock of Ages was recorded in the last days of December 1971, climaxing with a New Year's Eve show at which their former boss and mentor, Bob Dylan, made a (then) rare guest appearance.
Prosaically retitled Live at the Academy of Music 1971, it's now available in an expanded, remastered 4CD edition that includes versions of every song performed in the four-night residency, a new 5.1 mix and a complete, unedited run through the final show, from the funky opener "Up on Cripple Creek" to the closing "Like a Rolling Stone". It's simply marvellous, an unalloyed joy from first to last, with Robbie Robertson's finely wrought storytelling songs augmented by a few well-chosen covers, notably the revamped Motown numbers "Don't Do It" and "Loving You Is Sweeter Than Ever".
The songs are further embellished here with Allen Toussaint's bespoke-tailored horn arrangements, which add a spicy New Orleans flavour to the event. But despite the sophistication of their design, the performances have a muscular bite that speaks of long years spent on the road, while the three Band vocalists' individual leads and their distinctive harmonies ensure that every ounce of emotion is wrung from material which, in its stew of rock, folk, country, blues and soul, effectively invented the notion of "Americana".
Those onerous years of roadwork led to The Band calling it quits a few years later, but doing so in style, at a San Francisco show filmed by Martin Scorsese, and sprinkled with an extraordinary cast of guests, including Dr John, Van Morrison, Muddy Waters, Joni Mitchell, Eric Clapton, Neil Young and, of course, Dylan again. The Last Waltz offers an unrivalled one-stop account of a broader cultural moment, before music ebbed back to being simply entertainment.

Gang murder laws need reforming as they can allow killers to escape justice by deterring witnesses from coming forward, MPs warned today.
The Commons justice committee said prosecutors should urgently be given new guidance in so-called joint enterprise cases. Joint enterprise means that anyone who agrees to commit a crime with another person becomes liable for everything that person does.

There is a rumbling and a growing excitement in dance music's underground surrounding an act that is primed and ready to explode onto the scene. Little is known about Iranian born Amirali but one thing is for sure: he will soon have the world at his feet and the universe in his pocket, with his debut artist EP "Beautiful World" released on Crosstown Rebels in January 2012.
It is rare that an artist is signed to one of the most established labels out there without a single commercial release but Amirali is a musician at heart, not just a producer. His mysterious and haunting vocals and forward thinking musical style caught the attention of Rebels head honcho Damian Lazarus. Damian promptly signed him for an artist album due for release on Crosstown in 2012, and used his track 'My Way' to open his visionary compilation CD - Get Lost 4.
His sound is guaranteed to make your mouth water and your feet tap and his output is a brilliant mish mash of house, techno, funk, electronica, disco and everything in between. Think Depeche Mode jet propelled into the 22nd century whilst being chauffeured by Art Department & Underworld.
With debut album 'In Time' now complete and singles all scheduled for release, Amirali is currently developing a live show including vocals, live keys and a visual exploration into his weird and wonderful mind. It wont be long until you'll be seeing and hearing Amirali everywhere…

| An inside look at more of the action
Skelly drill
The modified skelly started with no d-line, just the line backers and the secondary on defense, with the o-line in there presumably to work on timing and adjust to the new play clock rules for this season. Lyle Moevao took the first set of reps, completing some really nice passes to Sammie Stroughter.
Stroughter got helped to the ground by Al Afalava on one play, with Afalava picking him up and apologizing afterwards -- everything seemed to be going in a smooth and sporting way on the field Friday. Jeremy Francis had a nice run in the drill. Morales also caught a nice ball, but Moevao later missed him by a wide margin on a long pass.
Sean Canfield started with a nice completion to Casey Kjos but ended up throwing a pick to Austin Hall -- it looked like a clear miscommunication on the play. And so Hall ended up with the first pick of the fall camp. Canfield came back with completions to Damola Adeniji and Keynan Parker.
Moevao on his second set of reps started by completing a couple of passes to Sammie Stroughter against tight coverage from Tim Clark. All in all, the offense came out on top.
11-on-11 drill
The session with the lines in place was an entirely different story.
DE Slade Norris made things difficult for the offense, forcing negative yardage on the first couple of plays. The No. 1 defense dominated the drill against the first team O.
The story was no different with Sean Canfield nor Ryan Katz under the center -- the offense managed to just get back to the line of scrimmage. And the defense seemed really pumped at this point.
Finally, the offense broke through a bit and it was Sammie Stroughter who did the honors -- he made a nice move on Al Afalava and made the catch. Afalava was none too pleased but it was simply a nice throw by Moevao. And Moevao later hit tight ends Howard Croom and Brady Camp for a couple of completions.
But just when the offense seemed to get going, Greg Laybourn picked off Moevao on a pass intended for Darrell Catchings. Laybourn dove full length on the play, and it was one heck of a grab. His fellow defensive teammates rushed to pick him up and give him a pat on the back afterwards.
Canfield got another set of reps but didn't get many good completions, mostly because of the defense. Moevao did a nice job of running interference on a James Rodgers run. Later, WR Shane Morales just missed hauling in what would have been a long completion.On the play, he ran a nice route and went really high in the air to make the catch, but just couldn't hold on.
Stroughter was there to pick him up and encouraged him to catch it, having done all the good work. Morales acknowledged by hitting himself on the chest.
Play of the day
Greg Laybourn interception of Lyle Moevao, a full extension dive to pick off the pass.
Lyle Moevao looked confident and ready to lead the team. His play, and the vibe he gives out, clearly makes him the starter of this team if the season were to begin today. But Sean Canfield also looked good for a guy coming back from surgery. Ryan Katz had a nice day. The best story of the day on offense was probably the running backs -- there's a lot of power and speed in that group.
Defense dominated the 11-on-11 drills -- it will be interesting to see if that's the case with pads on. All in all, a very positive first day on the field, with incoming freshmen making some good plays, and clearly led by the seniors on the team. Coach Mike Riley seemed quite happy with the way the first practice turned out. It will be really interesting to see who all ends up as the leaders on defense with seven starters being replaced.

Ryan McCants was the first team running back, while Sammie Stroughter and Darrell Catchings lined up at receiver. Stroughter looked very cheerful indeed on Friday, and was encouraging everyone throughout the whole practice session.
Sean Canfield went in next at quarterback, and he was followed by Ryan Katz. Moevao, just like in the spring, looked confident and gave off the clear vibes of a starter. He's also trimmed up considerably since last year. All the QBs looked sharp in the drill.
Now a graduate assistant, Ryan Gunderson was with the QBs, doing various motions without throwing the ball.
Ryan Katz's relatively modest size (6-1) for a quarterback is what might catch your eye at first when you consider the freshman. But the size of his arm tosses away any doubt he can throw the long ball -- and he let a few fly Friday. Kaulin Krebs and Justin Engstrom, who looks to be the No. 3 QB for the opener at camp's outset, also got some turns in.
LOOKING AT THE running backs on the day, one word came to mind. Impressive.
Ryan McCants, who some have referred to as; 'Steven Jackson 2', does bear a resemblance to him, save for the dreadlocks. More importantly, on the field, McCants looked stronger and faster from when seen last on the field this spring.
Jeremy Francis looked strong and fast as well, and has seemingly healed up nicely from spring ball when he got dinged up. The running backs at one point worked on their pass catching on Friday, and Francis looked particularly adept in that area. He has a good pair of hands to go with some speed -- the Beaver Nation might be in for a real treat this year from our running backs.
Joining those two was the much anticipated freshman, Jacquizz Rodgers.
Rodgers spent a prep career baffling opponents who thought they could contain the 5-7 back. On his first practice day in college, he looked really fast on his feet -- especially turning corners. He also looked good catching the ball.
Yes, it's early. But the beginnings were evident even on the first day -- this could very well be one of the best and most complete groups of running backs seen in Corvallis in quite some time.
THIS REPORTER CONCENTRATED mostly on the offense on Friday and it was difficult to tell who was practicing on the other side of the field in the secondary. However, Tim Clark did stand out in the group consisting of James Dockery, Brandon Hughes, Brandon Hardin, David Ross, Keenan Lewis and Patrick Henderson.
Those DBs were very boisterous throughout the entire practice. The linebackers were on and off the field, taking practice sessions inside the facility in turns.
THE TIGHT ENDS practiced with the QBs and had a rusty start. Both got things in order within a few reps.
Wide receivers soon joined the gathering and made some good grabs. Shane Morales looked good along with Aaron Nichols, Darrell Catchings, Damola Adeniji and Jordan Bishop.
Bishop drew some attention with some nice catches today, the true frosh was at one time a grayshirt candidate but the coaches decided to bring him in.
James Rodgers was his usual productive self and freshman Geno Munoz was not bad either, catching most everything that came his way. Chris Johnson, freshman Keynan Parker and Taylor Kavanaugh others in the mix. It will be interesting to see who Riley will redshirt out of the younger group.
THE OFFENSE DID some drilling with the No. 2 offensive line standing in for the d-line, working on the basics and the short passing game. In the far corner, the secondary at the same time were practicing on their breaks and getting a pick on a certain type of throw by a quarterback. In the drill, Tim Clark made a really spectacular one handed interception.
When the receivers and tight ends lined up with the QBs for a pass catching drill, after a handful of uneven reps, Riley huddled them together, and things seemed to improve dramatically from that point on.
Lyle Moevao to Chris Johnson was the best completion of the day and drew some cheers from the rest of their teammates.
AS FOR SPECIAL TEAMS, Justin Kahut attempted field goals from about 25 yards out on Friday. He made all of them, and looked really confident in his kicking.
Joining him was Matt Barker, who fared well overall but did hit the uprights on a couple of occasions. Barker seems to gather himself just before contact and puts a whole lot of force in to it. With the immediate height he gets, it's difficult to imagine him suffering many blocked attempts.
Taylor Kavanaugh, Casey Kjos and Johnny Hekker all held the ball for the kickers. Kavanaugh momentarily lost the grip on one occasion but recovered fast enough to complete the successful kick.
Kavanaugh tried his hand on kickoff returns with a couple of defensive people running at him in different directions. He made some really nice cuts, but somehow it felt like the element of acceleration was missing. Granted, it was the first day of camp and it wasn't full contact. The NCAA mandates each player have three practices before going full pads.
The return and kickoff teams also went through some of their blocking drills and schemes. Again, no pads, and there was no contact, but they looked good in the drills.
IT WAS A typical Oregon day weather wise at the Truax Center. It rained slightly in the morning and at around noon in the valley -- it stayed relatively cool throughout practice.
The Truax field was filled with noises of helmets colliding, the coach's yelling and cheers, hoots and whistles from fellow teammates. The calendar may have just turned from July to August, but it felt like football.
