Appears on 1790 and 1800 census in Anson Co., NC. Website illinois.htm at
By comparing the three Philip/Phillip Rushings in Anson County from 1790 to
1820, especially be comparing their ages and the ages of their children, it
seems most likely that the Philip Rushing Jr. in the census in 1790 must
have been the Phillip to purchase land in Stewart Co., Tn. in 1812. Census
data, Anson County, 1800:5201-101. This shows two sons born before 1790 and
five more (including Reuben and Larkin) born before 1800. This Phillip was
in Stewart County in 1808 when he lived on Guices Creek and served in
Captain Wardens co. of the militia.
In 1814 Isaac Lanier and later John Bailey were administrators of the
estate. An inventory for the estate was returned may 2, 1814. In 1816, the
court appointed Elijah Lowry as guardian of the orphan children of Phillip
Rushing, naming Reuben, Larkin, Betsy, Anna, and Jemima. Elijah Rushing and
Lewis Brewer were securities to the guardianship. In February 1818 40 acres
of Phillip's estate were conveyed to Mark Cooper.

Petition presented by James Robertson to the NC Assembly April 29, 1782
asking for protection from NC to residents of the new territory. For his
military service, 640 acres was granted to Moses Winters by NC. This land
on Sulphur Fork Creek in Robertson Co. TN was later sold to the George A.
Washington family and became part of historic Wessyngton, built in 1819. On
Aug. 27, 1791 the Red River Baptist Church received into membership "Brother
Moses and Sister Eliza Winters." Moses had a well-established Inn on
Sulphur Fork Creek by July 28, 1796 when Rev. Green Hill recorded a visit to
Mr. Winters' in his journal. Moses died in 1798 and his wife died in 1815.

>From Bill Perry (): Mose and Caleb winters helped est.
Cumberland River Settlements, later becoming Nashville in 1779-80. Both
appear on 1787 tax rolls for Davidson Co. and in 1770-90 census of
Cumberland Settlements. Moses received Land Grant No. 138 in 1782 from
North Carolina for 640 acres "on the waters of Caleb's Creek" (named after
his son Caleb, who helped defend the Cumberland Settlements from early
Indian attacks. Moses' wife Elizabeth and their seven daughters traveled by
flotilla (in a flotilla of 30 such boats) from southeastern Va. (Fort
Patrick Henry) down the Tn. River, up the Ohio River, and Cumberland River
in 1779-80 to get to the (Nashville) settlements to join Moses and Caleb.
The leader of the flotilla was Col. John Donelson, whose daughter Rachel was
later to become Mrs. Andrew Jackson. It was a perilous trip with many
hardships (winter, Indian attacks, smallpox outbreaks, and boat sinkings).
The trip down the Tenn. River alone was about 700 water miles, though places
too shallow for boats to pass safely. Moses and Elizabeth are both buried
on an estate (Wessyngton) begun from land sold by Mose's son on Feb. 9, 1802
to a Joseph Washington who was a descendent of John Washington, the
great-grandfather of President George Washington.

Two major myths about this Phillip Rushing create difficulties for Rushing
family researchers. #1 Burrell (17098-1867) was the son of Phillip. This
is based by looking at one daturm point-that there was a veteran or
pensioneer named Phillip Rushing in the household of Burrell in 1840 in
Perry Co., TN-and ignoring a great deal of other information, including
Phillip's age in the same census. In general, because of the close
associations between the families of Burrell and Isaac, they must have been
brothers, but census data will not support both to be sons of Phillip.
Myth 2: The Revolutionary War veteran Phillip was the son of the Abraham
Rushing who died in 1805 in Anson Co., NC> Phillip could have been slightly
older than the Abraham who died in 1805 as Phillip needed to have been born
circa 1745 to be the father of the Phillip Rushing Jr. in the 1790 census.
Without having to be father of the Revolutionary War veteran Phillip,
Abraham needs only to have been born about 1750. The myth of Phillip has
pushed the estimated ages of Abraham Rushing ans some of Abraham's children
back in time unnnecessarily. For example, I have seen 1750 given as a
possible date for Abraham's daughter Elizabeth Morgan. No one seems to know
her husbands name. Anson Co. census data, North Carolina, and Henderson,
Perry, and Decatur Counties, Tn othewise indicate that she was the wife of
William Morgan born 1873/74 and that her own children were born 1795-1913.
Elizabeth probably was two or three years older than her husband.
Some descendants of Abraham are needlessly looking for an earlier marriage
for him as his wife Mariah Meador would have been to young to be the mother
of children born as early as 1750 as the wrong dates suggest. The
acceptance of this myth seems odd to me because Phillip's pension claim
names Rishcard as his brother and Richard is not a name of one of Abraham's
children. The Phillip who appears as Philip I in 1800, the younger Phillip
in 1810, and Phillep J. in 1820 seems a more likely choice as son of
Abraham. Unfortunately, these myths are contained in an accepted
application to join the D.A.R. and the D.A.R. itself seems to be
distributing the misinformation. In his pension claim in 1834, Philip
Rushing states he had been in Tn. for 18 yrs. A military marker has been
erected for Phillip Rushing at Rushing Grove Cemetery in Decatur Co. The
dates on the marker are 1756-1838. This location probably is incorrect.
Phillip seems still to have been alive at the time of the 1840 census and is
listed in the household of Burrell Rushing, who is living south of Rushing
Creek near the Bath Springs area surrounded by various Brashers. It is
probable that this is Phillip's property and not Burrells (Burrell did not
buy land on Turkey Creek near Rushing Grove until the 1840's, though
descendants claim this was the land Burrell settled in about 1820.
Burrell's property adjoined Richard's property to the east. A more likely
place for Phillip to be buried then would be in an old cemetery in the
Rushing Creak area or in the Brasher Cemetery. For the sake of argument, a
case could be made that Phillip and Richard are buried at Campground Cem.
There is no evidence to suggest that Rushing Grove Cem. is older than the
mid 1850s when Henry Harrington may have been buried there. The birth date
used on the military marker at Rushing Grove Cem. is 1756. This is based on
an age of 78 sworn to by witnessess in Phillip's pension claim in 1834.
However in the pension claim Phillip himself admits that his memory is
failing. And whild Phillip mentions that there is proof of his age in a
family bible in the possession of his brother Richard, court records never
indicate that the Bible was produced in court. In the census in Anson Co.
in 1800 Phillip already is listed as 45 and over. He probably was born
nearer 1745 as in 1790 Phillip Jr. is already listed as the head of a family
and seems to have 2 children. The Phillip in the 1840 census with Burrell
is age 78 (born circa 1762). Either this is a different Phillip or Burrell
has no idea of Phillip's correct age. The death year 1838 on the military
marker seems to have been taken from Phillip's pension paper and may come
from anote from the Treasurey indicating that Phillip's pension had been
paid throught that date. There is such a note in the pension papers for
Richard Rushing with the sam closing date.
Phillip Rushing received Land Grant no. 8510 dated July 23, 1774 and issued
by Josiah Martin, Royal Governor of the Colony of NC. It was for 400 acres
in Anson Co. on the southwest side of Pee Dee on Great Brown's Creek,
joining a bottom by the creek near the muddy spring branch.
Following is text of Phillip's pension application. No. was S21458:
Perry Co., July Term 1834- On this 21st day of July 1834 personally appeared
before the Court of Pleas and Quarter Sessions for the County of Perry
Philip Rushing a sresident of Rushing's Creek in Perry Co., State of
Tennessee, aged 78 years, who being first sworn according to law doth make
on his oath the following declaration in order to obtain the benefit of act
of Congress passed June the 7th 1832 that he entered service of the United
States under the following named officers and served as herein after stated.
This declarent entered the service of the U.S. under Captain John Jacksson
be declarent being the Ensign of said company in Anson County in the State
of North Carolina, from thence marched to Gilbert Town NC, from thense to
Pleasant Garden at thehead of the Catawber, from thense into the Indian
Nation on the Hiwassee River, from thence to the Balley Towns where some of
our men were out gowling and Indians came upon them and killed three of
them, one of whose names was Turner he believes, from thence was marched
home by way of Pleasant garden, declared served his tour the term of three
months as Ensign, he declarent thinks his tour was performed in the latter
end of the year 1776, but owing to old age he cannot recollect precisely his
Major's name was Davidson, Col. David Lovbe (or Lane) his Col and general
Rutherford was his general. This declaren again volunteered under Captain
Stephen Jackson in the year 17777, and was employed on teh frontiers
guarding the property of whigas and their lives from ruthless hands of the
Torys and British. He served this year seven months as a volunteer guarding
the frontiers, again in the year 1778 he bolunteered under the same Captain
and was employed on the same service taht is raging along the frontiers, in
these several last tours he does not recollect particularly owing to old age
and the consequent loss of memory the events of this period of his services
as he did not charge his memory with minor events but in factt he nearly
always was out in the service of his country from the year 1776 up to the
time wheich was 1780. The declarent in the year 1781 entered the service
uncer Capt. Bogan, Col Wade his Colonel, declarent was marched from Anson
Co. to Cape Fear where he was attached to Col. Smith's Regiment and to Capt.
Smtih's Co., hsi declarents own Capt. and Col. having left the army. This
tour we had an engagement with the Tories on Cape Fear not far from
Wilmington and defeated them after which we marched up and attached the
British in a large brick house some time not long after this we heard that
Cornwallis was defeated at Little York and went home. This declarent states
that on this Tour he served two months. He has no documentary evidence by
which he can prove his service nor does he know of any person except Richard
Rushing by whom he can prove the same, he hereby relinquishes any claim
whatever to a pension or annuity except the present and declares that his
name is not on the pension roll of the agency of any state sworn to and
subscribed the day and year above written. Signed Phillip (x) Rushing.
Sworn statements of William Woolverton, a clergy man resideing in Perry Co.,
and W.R. Doherty, residing in Perry Co., stating that Rushing is 78 years of
age and he is reputed and believed in the neighborhood where he resides to
have been a revolutionary soldier. Signed 21 July 1834.

Following supplied by Charles C. Rushing and appears in the "Rushing Past"
newsletter, II March 1980. "Let's start with the Isle of Wight Co, Va.
Early Eighteenth Century Palatine Emigration by Knittle (on P. 252) states
that on the second sailing from Holland to England then to Va. there was
listed May 23, 1709 Mathys Riesin (German for Rushing) and Vrow (wife) and
three children. Then on page 262 tMattys Russin...they were of Protestant
faith and could not worship as Protestants in Germany. In "Seventeenth
Century Isle of Wight Co. Virginia" by John Bennet Boddie, it states that
sold 150 acres to Wm Bridger in 1714. The Russians (Rushings) were living
in an area overrun by Louis XIV of France and had escaped to Holland. There
they were helped by Queen Anne of England who promised to take them to
Virginia to settle there. In "Lost Virginia Records" by Louis Des Cognets
on page 88, Mathew Rushin applied for 475 acres with a partner Edward
Goodson. russin sold his (or a part) to Wm. Bridger as states above. This
deed was dated 10 April 1707 (a little variation in the dates from the
Palatine Migration book). Mathys Rushin had to live on it for a period to
get title, on 16 June 1714 he received Patent." But this is only one theory
about Rushing family origins. I am presenting it because it is a theory
which at least presents documentary evidence. There is evidence for a James
Rushing in New Kent Co, VA, in 1667, and for a Mathew Rushing in Charles
City Co., VA., before 1670. The Rushings in Anson Co., NC, seem to be very
closely related, but working out the relationships between them is extremely
difficult, particularly because there are so many William Rushings. I
propose the forllowing hypothesis. The Anson Co. Rushings seem to be
descended from two near contemporary William Rushings (A contemporary John
Rushing lived near Thompson's Creek in the Chesterfield District of South
Carolina). To attempt to clarify the relationships I plotted probable
locations of Rushing land grants and deeds. When this is done the Rushings
fall into tow subgroups. One group lived on Browns Creek near the present
community of White Store, near Black Jack Creak. This goup is associated
with the elder and younger Joseph whites in land grant and deed records.
This group includes two Williams, Richard, Phillip, Solomon and a John. The
other group is found 5-10 mi. father south on Thompson's Creek on the
headwaters of Browns Creek and on Little Browns CReek. This group includes
two or more Williams, two or more Johns, a Mathew, Robert Noah and Abraham.
They are associated in land grant and deed records with Benjamin Jackson and
John Jackson. The breakdown ins not exactly this simple, however, and some
adjustments have to be made. Except for living near the southern Rushing
group Abraham is most closely tied to Richard, Solomon and others in the
northern group.
The widow Elizabeth Rushing is said to have married either Edwin or
Edward Goodson as her second husband, and to have died 1743-1747 leaving
property to Goodson.
Child of Matthew Rushing and Elizabeth ? is:
112 i. William Rushing, born 1709 in possibly Germany or Holland; married
Sarah Sally.

A Person of Consequence
"So," the man in the lilac vest asks me by way of greeting, "Are you making any money these days?"
We're at a Jewish Federation event at the USC campus downtown. It's Sunday, and we've spent the morning listening to speakers talk about the many ways in which this world could become a better place.
At lunch, senators and City Council members have been introduced and honored, two dozen donors and dignitaries have been praised and appreciated, the mayor, having cut short his own birthday party to be at this luncheon, has delivered a keynote speech about faith and tikkun olam (repairing the world).
The man in the lilac vest is no stranger to the art of making money. And he knows how to give it away, as well. He and I have met only once before, a few months ago when I went to him asking for help on a matter in which we were both involved.
I wasn't asking for a donation or offering to help raise money for one of his causes. He asked what I do for a living, and when I told him, he decided he wasn't interested in what else I had to say. He didn't care what profession I was in; what he really wanted to know is whether I am, to borrow a phrase from the language of the old country, "a person of consequence."
In Persian, "a person of consequence" is one who has earned and deserves respect because of what he is or what he has done — because of his character, or his accomplishments, or his kindness to others, or any of those qualities that used to matter not so long ago, values that were upheld as cornerstones of a healthy society.
In its original meaning, it doesn't denote wealth or social class — only what a person has done with that wealth or how humble he has remained, despite his superior station. But in the heady years of sudden wealth and swift ascent of the 1960s and '70s, many Iranians confused wealth with character, vanity with class.
And because we lived in a place where might was right and in a world where money is might, the word "consequence" became synonymous with "wealth." "A person of consequence" was someone with enough money to be reckoned with by other people of consequence.
America, too, is a place where might is right and where money can often buy respectability. Only here, "a person of consequence" is referred to in admiring tones by awestruck observers as a "successful person." Here, within our own community, "a successful person" is someone who has made a lot of money and has the potential to make even more.
It doesn't matter if he's content or unhappy, if he's a good parent, if he's committed a single selfless act in his life. He can be "a doctor" who's in Africa treating sick children out of the kindness of his heart (in which case he will be said to be wasting a perfectly good education), or he can be "a successful doctor" who has put eight years of medical training in the service of injecting weird chemicals into the lips of rich women. He can be "a journalist" (in which case he is wasting time till he grows up and finds a real job), or he can be "a successful journalist" (like Geraldo Rivera), who makes a lot of money for making asinine statements on cable television every night.
In America, you can be a person who broke the law and went to jail, or you can be "a successful" convict who robbed little old ladies of their life's savings, did time and went back to give some of the old ladies' money to good causes. Tikkun olam, indeed.
But what if, as happened to so many Iranians 30 years ago and is happening to so many Americans these days, the wealth disappears? Do successful people suddenly become failures? Do people of consequence become inconsequential?
Is that why the man in the lilac vest wants to know if I'm still making money before he even says hello to me?
But it's not the intentions of men with interesting fashion sense or the semantics of the Persian or English languages that interest me (though they are, in a very transparent way, indicative of a people's ethics); it's what they imply about our standards as a people and about our culture as a whole.
I'm not concerned about a few hundred sharks on Wall Street or a few dozen wealthy Westside Jews who compete for social acceptance by one-upping each other on spending money on their children's bar and bat mitzvahs. I'm concerned about a national worldview that reveres wealth and aspires to excess, a society where even the poor revel in accounts of the myriad ways the rich find to waste money. About a country that produces Donald Trump, then gives him permission to, indeed rewards him for and sits down faithfully every week to watch him, berate those who have less than he.
I'm concerned about us — Jews on Wall Street and in Los Angeles and elsewhere — and the extent to which we have bought into those values, adopted the language and the morals of consumerism at the expense of so much that has defined us over time: learning, creativity, kindness to our fellow men.
I'm concerned that we may have come more and more to define charity solely in dollar terms. That so many of us nowadays fail to teach our children that we were of consequence even when we lived in ghettos and were berated by others; that we survived those ghettos because we knew the true worth of a human being, the true meaning of success.
Long before we were rich enough to host luncheons at USC, before we were important enough to hobnob with mayors and senators, before we felt secure enough to form the Jewish federations of the world, we were scholars and artists, soldiers and scientists. We made the world a better place because of who we were and what we did, not because of what we could buy or give away.
I still have a job, yes, and I still make money by writing. But I'm concerned about a future in which, even on a day of community service, even as we preach tikkun olam, we gauge our own and each other's worth by any measure but our humanity.

I recently watched all seven seasons of Buffy the Vampire Slayer, for a project that I am working on. I started tweeting my responses so that I could have an interactive conversation with others. On my blog Fangs for the Fantasy, I posted a review of each season. When Buffy began to wind down, people on twitter asked if I would consider doing the same for Joss Whedon's Firefly or Dollhouse series. I was resistant at first, because neither really fall into the category of urban fantasy. but since so many expressed interest, I have decided to review Dollhouse by the episode here on Women's Eye on Media.
The first thing I noticed is that Dollhouse stars Eliza Dushku, who played Faith on Buffy. My first thought was that Whedon was switching out the blonde for the brunette. Hey, does Sarah Michelle Gellar show up to play her sidekick? No don't answer that. No spoilers please. I suppose what it says is that Whedon likes to work with White actresses who have large doe eyes that he has worked with in the past. The better disarm the viewer I suppose. I know that it has only been 1 episode so far but I have only seen one man of colour that I think will be reoccurring character. So I suppose it is whitetopia once again. At this point there also has not been an LGBT character but considering Whedon did the whole death by gay sex in Buffy, perhaps it's better that there aren't any.
Okay, please keep in mind that thus far I have only watched one episode as you read this review. From what I can understand, there are women that are housed in a secure location that I presume are called dollhouses. These women have had their personalities completely scrubbed in order to have new personalities imprinted on them based in the situation that they are placed in. In the first episode, we see Echo riding a motorcycle, dancing and even engaging in sex with ropes. She is whisked away to her treatment where her memory of the incident is completely scrubbed.

A new report by rbb Public Relations is out measuring Breakout Brands for 2012. The survey, which interviewed 2000 adults about their feelings on various companies, had tech firms Apple (NASDAQ:AAPL) and Amazon (NASDAQ:AMZN) coming out ahead. The survey was conducted by IBOPE/Zogby International.
A Breakout Brand is one that has such loyalty that customers don't mind paying a premium or waiting in lines to make their purchase. Apple, at the top of the list this year, demonstrates that whenever we see long lines or higher prices for its products.
Breakout brands also build loyalty by being about the customer first. Companies that work to make sure that the customer's experience is positive are better positioned to become a breakout brand than a firm only focused on becoming number one in the market.
Here's the top five breakout brands of 2012:

A rancher reluctantly takes in his abused daughter-in-law and her unruly 12 year old son and they soon learn to forgive each other to heal old wounds.
A gruff grandfather living in a remote location forced to befriend his kin and confront long-held family resentments: from Heidi to Michael Caine's Secondhand Lions, it's a familiar theme. Like Secondhand Lions, this also throws in two old grouches for the price of one: Einar (Robert Redford) lives with his old friend Mitch (Morgan Freeman), admittedly a slightly more sociable chap, but housebound and badly scarred after a run-in with a bear. And so little Griff (Becca Gardner) must break through the men's harsh exteriors to find the softness within; her major obstacle being her mother Jean (Jennifer Lopez), who Einar holds responsible for his son's death.
There are few surprises in An Unfinished Life, but for many that will be part of its charm. A gentle, occasionally humorous coming-of-age drama addressing issues of family and forgiveness, it's mildly moving and offers up some decent performances. Romcom regular Lopez has a meatier character than usual in Jean, perpetual victim and flawed-yet-committed mother. Jean's liaisons with local sheriff Crane Curtis (Josh Lucas) are pleasingly practical and unromantic — at least until things turn sentimental, with director Lasse Hallström unnecessarily hammering home his messages.
The central one concerns forgiveness, and is first signalled by a subplot in which Mitch learns that his ursine nemesis has been captured, becoming obsessed with its release. Both he and Einar must forgive the perceived architects of their downfall (the bear and Jean respectively). But making peace with Jean will require a conversation, something Einar isn't very good at. In a nod to the Westerns the setting recalls, Einar solves most problems with his fists. Early on he's shown punching rowdy sexist customers in the local diner to protect his friend Nina (Camryn Manheim), who really doesn't look like she needs protecting. Such scenes rarely feel credible, although the script has the sense of humour to point this out. "You've seen too many Westerns, old man," sneers Jean's abusive boyfriend Gary as Einar threatens him. "That doesn't exactly work in your favour," comes the retort.
With its fisticuffs and family dramas, An Unfinished Life has a certain soapy appeal, but it fails to dig as deep as Hallström's previous work.
A wistful smalltown drama, this is predictable and pleasant, with enjoyable performances. It suffers from heavy-handed symbolism, but as an undemanding mainstream movie it has its simple pleasures.

"Saturday Gigs"
Sixty-nine was cheapo wine,
Have a good time,
What your sign?
Float up to the Roundhouse
On a Sunday afternoon.
In Seventy we all agreed
A King's Road flat was the place to be
'Cause Chelsea girls are the best in the world for company.
In Seventy-one all the people come
Bust a few seats but it's just in fun
Take the Mick out of Top of the Pops
We play better than they do (yeah, yeah, yeah)
In Seventy-two we was born to lose
We slipped down snakes into yesterday's news
I was ready to quit
But then we went to Croydon
Do you remember the Saturday gigs?
We do, we do
Do you remember the Saturday gigs?
We do, we do
The tickets for the fantasy were twelve and six a time
A fairy tale on sale
Oh, Seventy-three was a jambouree
We were the dudes and the dudes were we.(oh oh oh oh oh)
Did you see the suits and the platform boots? (oh dear, oh boy, ...)
In Seventy-four on the Broadway tour
We didn't much like dressing up no more
Don't wanna be hip - but thanks for a great trip.
Do you remember the Saturday gigs?
We do, we do
Do you remember the Saturday gigs?
We do, we do
But now the kids pay a couple of quid
'Cause they need it just the same
It's all a game
A grown-up game
But you got off on those Saturday gigs
And we did, we did
'Cause you got off on those Saturday gigs
And we did, we did
And we got off on those Saturday gigs
And you did, you did
And we got off on those Saturday gigs
'Cause you did, you did
Don't you ever forget us
We'll never forget you
We're going to sleep now
You better be good, right? (ha ha ha)
See you next time

MOGADISHU, Somalia (AP) -- A Somali militant group has posted photos of what appears to be a dead French soldier.
Two photos posted by an al-Shabab-run Twitter account show a man wearing military pants and a blood-soaked shirt surrounded by three guns, ammunition clips and protective gear. Al-Shabab is the al-Qaida-affiliated militant group that controls much of southern Somalia.
The posting taunted France's president, saying: "Francois Hollande, was it worth it?"
The soldier was killed during a botched military raid early Saturday to rescue a French intelligence officer held by al-Shabab for the last three years.
France's defense minister said Monday that it was likely two commandos were killed during the raid. France believes the hostage, whose code-name was Denis Allex, was also killed, though al-Shabab says he is still alive.

Area official prepares for buzzer on 40th basketball season
As Joe Kleinsasser's 40th, and final season, as a high school basketball official comes to an end, he is greeting it with his usual sense of humor.
He was recognized for his years of officiating by El Dorado tournament directors before a game in January, and naturally questioned whether that was a good idea.
"It was non-controversial," Kleinsasser said with a laugh. "Then at McPherson (for the girls tournament), the applause was nice. I don't know if it got louder after they announced I was retiring or not."
Kleinsasser, 60, decided to retire in order to spend more time with his wife of 30 years, as well as their two adopted sons who are 16 and 11 and have special needs.
"To be fair to them, I want to spend more time with them," said Kleinsasser, who is director of news and media relations at Wichita State. "I still want to be active and exercise, which is probably better than chasing 17-year-olds, who never get any older, for three hours."
Kleinsasser is quick with a self-deprecating remark, which has worked well with coaches.
"Most (coaches) have been reasonable and good to deal with," he said. "Most of them know I've never claimed to be perfect. Sometimes I've told coaches before games, 'I hope you don't question my judgment because if I had good judgment, would I be here?' "
His goal, even while officiating college basketball or one of his estimated 28 state tournaments, has been to be consistent and communicate.
"I've always wanted to do the best I can, apply the rules, hustle, trying to be in the right position to make the best call, and limit my mistakes, trying to have as few as possible," he said. "… We all miss a couple calls a night. Between the calls you could have made or should have made, you're going to miss a couple.
"We're not as good as we think we are, not as bad as everyone else thinks we are."
And then Kleinsasser laughed again.
South girls keep winning — The South girls faced Carroll and Kapaun on Feb. 7 and 8, coming away with wins to join Kapaun atop the City League standings.
But South (15-1), winners of 14 straight and 38 of its last 39, isn't at the level coach Antwain Scales wants. Not yet, anyway.
"We haven't been playing well," said Scales, whose team avenged its lone loss by beating Kapaun 40-39. "We've been getting wins. I'm not trying to be funny, but we haven't been."
South returned its entire starting lineup from the 2013 Class 6A title team, including All-Metro selection Kendrian Elliott, a sophomore forward.
The Titans' goal is firmly set on repeating as 6A champs, which is why Scales sought out Heights boys coach Joe Auer while both volunteered at the VarsityKansas.com Skills Day on Dec. 28.
"I was sitting there talking to him about, 'You had Perry (Ellis) and all that success,' and one thing he told me that stuck with me was you have to start setting daily goals, practice goals," Scales said. "You know the long-term goals, let's start setting daily goals to challenge them to do the things daily instead of working on the bit, long-term goal.
"That's what I've been kind of taking his advice into our game plan and our practices now."
Milestone for Cordell — Thursday morning ,Little River girls coach Shane Cordell laughed when asked if he'd ever expected to have 599 victories.
"Oh, no," he said. "That wasn't the reason I got into it. I think it was the challenge. I loved sports growing up, and when I got to the age where I had an opportunity to coach … I thought, 'This is kind of cool.' It just kind of happened."
Cordell, 59, is in his 34th season coaching girls basketball and Little River (11-5) beat Goessel on Thursday night for Cordell's 600th win.
Cordell led Little River to four Class 1A titles from 1995-98 and a record 91 straight wins. He also coached all eight of his children in basketball or football.
"Especially in a small-school setting, the talent pool goes up and down and to an extent, it will determine records," he said. "But my No. 1 goal is to try to teach them life lessons — be on time, communicate with us if you're going to be gone.
"Then try to carry it over to basketball and football, and work your tail off trying to do the best you can with them."
Allen goes into SE hall of fame — Southeast will induct Ron Allen, who coached two Class 6A basketball titleists at East, into its hall of fame on Feb. 21. He was an All-City League football selection in 1968 and 1969.
Also being inducted will be Leon Edwards, an Eagle Top 11 selection in 1988 and 1989, golfer Jeane Orr, soccer and tennis coach Larry Saksa, football and track athlete Paul Savage, and baseball player Jim Thomas.

Chris Brown, Rihanna Collaborate on Two Remixes
I've been tellin' ya for weeks… THEY'RE BACK TOGETHER!!! (allegedly)
Over the weekend TWO new remixes emerged featuring both Rihanna and former flame and alleged batterer Chris Brown. One was Chris Brown rapping over Rihanna super-sexy, yet super-profane, "Birthday Cake." The second being a version of Brown's "Turn Up the Music" with Rihanna lending her vocals.
I have included the audio of the "Turn Up the Music" remix below. If you want to hear the "Birthday Cake" remix, you'll need to locate yourself. It's a little too naughty for my ears.
