Tehachapi woman has trouble getting help with dying skunk
TEHACHAPI, Calif. (KBAK/KBFX) - Patricia Young of Tehachapi was just headed out to feed the hummingbirds Wednesday morning, but when she opened her door, she got a bit of a surprise - a skunk.
"The skunk was lying here in my flower bed, and he wasn't dead," said Young.
The skunk, and the smell, was hard to ignore.
"Everybody knows skunk," said Young. "It's pretty nauseating, and when you can't get away from it, it's horrible."
Young's first instinct was to call Kern County Animal Control, but officials told her they would not pick it up.
"The first one I called was Animal Control, and they told me they did not do skunks, and I said, 'You don't check for rabies?' They said, 'No.'"
Young is concerned the skunk is rabid. She doesn't understand why Animal Control won't help.
"This is still a live animal, and I would think they'd pick him up and test him," she said.
Janice Mackey, a spokeswoman for California Fish and Wildlife, said Animal Control won't help because it's not its problem.
"They deal with domestic animals, dogs, cats, birds - animals of that nature," Mackey said.
Mackey said Young should have called Fish and Wildlife or the Wildlife Services Division of the U.S. Department of Agriculture.
She said the proper agency to call depends on where you live.
"In more rural areas, Fish and Wildlife and the USDA Wildlife Services would probably be your best bet," she said.
Mackey advised to practice caution when dealing with wild animals.
"The best thing to do is to give them their space. Don't let people go up and gawk at them, let them be quiet, let them have space, and call the proper authorities," she said.
Young was eventually able to have the skunk removed when Western Exterminator stopped by for a routine visit.
If you'd like to contact USDA Wildlife Services, call 1-866-4USDAWS, or call (559) 243-4005 ext. 151 for the Department of Fish and Wildlife.

Jack Reacher
Jack Reacher is one confusing film. It's not confusing because of the plot, though. The limp twists don't come close to the script for The Usual Suspects, which snagged Reacher writer/director Christopher McQuarrie an Oscar. Reacher doesn't have nearly as much bite or intelligence, or a strong enough cast to pull off the same feat. Let's give McQuarrie the benefit of the doubt; perhaps Reacher is hamstrung by its source material, the ninth book in Lee Child's series about the bad-ass drifter who uses his military training to solve crimes. Although McQuarrie's direction is fairly faultless for an actioner like this, the script and cast make it woefully uneven.
Some of the actors seem to think it's a very serious film, but the smarter and more interesting, like Werner Herzog and Robert Duvall, realize just how silly this all is and own it. Star Tom Cruise is weirdly blank, a slab of stone-faced menace who dances around his own media persona. Cruise seems aware enough that will always be Tom Cruise™ in whatever role he takes on, and the only choice he has is to embrace it and lampoon it, as he did with Les Grossman in Tropic Thunder.
Are we supposed to believe he's a lady-killer whose rock-hard abs make a female lawyer swoon? Does he realize how hilarious he sounds when he threatens a bad guy that he will ''beat you to death and drink your blood from a boot''? Because that is hilarious. He has to know that he's parodying himself. (Do we need to mention that Jack Reacher is so fully realized by his creator Lee Child that he's described even down to his inseam? And that Cruise looks nothing like him?)
On the other hand, there are quite a few people who seem to take this all at face value. As Helen, Rosamund Pike takes her job as a defense attorney very seriously, mostly because her dad (played by always-reliable Richard Jenkins) is the pro-death penalty DA. She's sexually attracted to Reacher, because all women are. But he's a drifter and a loner, Dottie, so forget that girly nonsense and hit the road. They try to talk shop, but his shirtlessness apparently drives her to distraction. And when she thinks he's about to make a move on her, and she's already protesting what a bad idea that is when he kicks her out. Broads, man!
Speaking of broads, the only other woman in the movie (other than a silent meth head wrapped cozily in an afghan on a cook house's porch) is a sexy young thing named Sandy. When she tries to provoke Reacher (ladies, am I right?), Cruise offers a one-liner comparing the definitions of ''hooker'' and ''slut.'' There is just no way for someone like Cruise to pull off a deadpan line like this. Statham could do it, maybe, but this is like watching your dad flirt with a high schooler. ''It's just what girls like me do!'' Sandy tells him later. There's not enough snap to this script or its delivery to pull off such ickyness.
David Oyelowo is another sinking stone of seriousness as a no-nonsense cop who is annoyed by Reacher and his off-the-cuff investigative methods. As Emerson, he plays the bad cop and threatens to put the suspected sniper James Barr (Joseph Sikora) in with the general population, graphically describing the threats to Barr's various orifices. This should read as snappy cop chatter, albeit stomach-turning (when will jail rape stop being a source of amusement?), but it falls flat.
The only shining stars here are Duvall, an old-timer who owns a shooting range in Ohio, and Herzog, a nubby-handed Russian who bit off several of his own fingers in a Siberian gulag and lost others to frostbite. He's also got one milky eye, and every single line he delivers is gold. Jack Reacher needed 99% more Herzog and far fewer mindless car chases, slut-shaming, and weak plot twists. It could also have done with a ruthless editor who would have chiseled off at least 30 minutes from its bloated 2 hour and 10 minute run time. Let's just hope no one gets any wise ideas about adapting any of the other Jack Reacher novels. There are a lot to choose from.
Hollywood.com rated this film 2 stars.

Mancos 17-year-old Easton LaChappelle is famous.
Just ask the Internet. Hes one of the nine teenagers saving the world (and the only American).
He was featured on Nickelodeon.
When he was just 14 years old, the magazine Popular Mechanics called him a genius because of the series of robot hands he has developed, which now seem poised to revolutionize prosthetics.
PBS wants to do a documentary about him and the future of the American economy, said Easton, admitting he didnt really know what that meant.
And he may become rich. Recently, Eastons robotics company launched with Kickstarter a website that crowd sources funding to entrepreneurs and raised almost $9,000. In the short term, Eastons company would supply robot kits to people who have an interest in using the technologies Easton has pioneered. In the long term, the Kickstarter money would go toward the development of a brain- and muscle-controlled prosthetic, robot arm that could be mass-produced for less than $1,000 each.
As Easton was excitedly talking about the millionaire Brooke Drumm, whos already given him a 3-D printer which is integral to the new light-weight, affordable arm, his mother Julia Whelihan, interrupted.
Easton, you left your dirty socks around again, she said, shaking her head.
Easton sighed and quickly apologized.
Its a tragedy many before him have known: No one is a genius to their own mother.
Much lies ahead
Easton is destined for great things. Hes about to go to Denver to deliver a TEDx talk about the bionic arm he built.
Universities in India keep asking him to take all-expenses-paid trips to their campuses to deliver lectures about robotics.
Hes interning at NASA this summer.
Some of the biggest names in science have invited him to lunch, offered him internships and tried to woo him to their alma maters.
In May, hell go to the Intel International Science and Engineering Fair, where last year he finished second in engineering. This year, he wants first place.
On entering Eastons Mancos laboratory, one does not feel so much to be in the presence of greatness, but in a teenagers bedroom.
Tools of every sort pliers, knives, screws, hammers, welding gear and two 3-D printers cover every visible surface, from the desk to the jewelers table his mother loaned him to the dresser tops. Outlets sprout out of the walls like weed tufts. Much of the floor is taken over by riddled wires.
The faces of Krusty the Clown, Bart Simpson and Homer Simpson are emblazoned on the top pane of the rooms only window.
Eastons twin bed, swathed in a plaid comforter, sits in the corner, almost an afterthought.
One senses that though Easton has spent most of his life in this bedroom (for many years he shared it with his older brother, Cameron), it really belongs to the robots hes become famous for building in it.
Indeed, the robotic arm he built and took to last years international science fair (the one that made him famous, not the new one in development, which is to be controlled wirelessly by brainwaves) sometimes seems to stand elegant and unapologetic, like a silent superstar, where Easton is the nervous interpreter.
But when explaining his robot at the science fair or on Nickelodeon, showmanship comes easily to Easton. He beams and gestures fluidly, seamlessly adjusting his descriptions of the science behind his robot to match listeners comprehension.
Coming of age on stage
No such precocity blights his talk of other matters. He loves action films and, though suspiciously versant in romantic comedies, says he dislikes them. When he speaks of Mancos High School, wheres he a junior, his voice grows resigned, like a convict resigned to his prison sentence.
In some ways, Easton knows that life wont sustain his dueling lives renowned scientist on the cusp of making a bundle in the adult world and downtrodden child prisoner of public education much longer.
He says hes prepared to delay college to ensure the health of his business. Concerns such as lawyers, patents and investors are just around the corner.
Media attention and celebrity are likely not much farther off.
But for now, Easton is 17.
He said his ideal interview wouldnt be with Barbara Walters or Diane Sawyer, but Morgan Freeman, with him reading me a book or something. And then wed probably go into the interview, but hopefully wed talk more about him than about me. And then, at the end, maybe wed have a glass of wine together.
His mother smiled.
Theres still time before the inventor is off the assembly line.

SANTA ANA, Calif. (AP) — A woman has been sentenced to eight days in jail for stealing a former "American Idol" contestant's iPhone while the singer was performing at a California elementary school.
City News Service reports 47-year-old Bertha Alicia Avalos, of Santa Ana, pleaded guilty to misdemeanor theft charges Monday and was sentenced immediately.
Todrick Dramaul Hall reported his phone missing after a performance at Hazard Elementary School in Santa Ana.
Hall and a school security guard used the "Find My iPhone" feature on the device to track the phone to a grocery store where Avalos was shopping with her son, a student at the school.
Avalos gave the phone back to Hall. He wanted to press charges, so she was taken into custody later at her home.
Hall was an "Idol" contestant in 2010.

Florida's loss to LSU last week was all about toughness. LSU was the tougher team and that had plenty to do with why the Tigers knocked off the Gators in a showdown game in Baton Rouge. When the Gators take on Missouri in Columbia this afternoon, it's a chance for Will Muschamp to rally the troops and define what is to be the rest of this season. It will take toughness that the Gators didn't show last week in Baton Rouge, but sometimes it takes a game like that to test a team's resolve. If this is a tough team, determined still to turn this into a memorable season, then the Gators will show up ready to play from the opening kickoff. If ever there was a game when the Gators can't afford to be slow out of the gate this is it. To bounce back big, Florida has to take it to Missouri from the beginning and never let up.
With reports that quarterback Tyler Murphy is not 100%, Florida's reliance on the defense will only increase. You hate to go into any game thinking that if the defense makes more than one or two mistakes that you can kiss winning good-bye, but if the Gators are forced to play Skyler Mornhinweg for any significant amount of time, then the defense might have to pitch a shutout and get some help from special teams that will have Frankie Velez kicking field goals for only the second time and a new punter in Johnny Townsend. The key for Florida will be the ability for corners Vernon Hargreaves III, Loucheiz Purifoy and Marcus Roberson to play physical at the line of scrimmage and for safeties Cody Riggs and Jaylen Watkins to keep everything in front of them. If the Gators can keep Missouri from getting the big play in its passing game, then Florida should win this game. I think the Gators get just enough offense and take a 20-14 win.
Baylor quarterback Bryce Petty is averaging 14.87 yards PER PASS ATTEMPT this year and 21.27 yards per completion. That's staggering. Comparitively speaking, LSU's Zach Mettenberger averages 10.86 per attempt and 16.29 per completion to lead the SEC. Florida quarterback Tyler Murphy averages 7.96 per attempt and 11.94 per completion. Murphy's numbers are superior to those posted last year by Jeff Driskel – 6.72 per attempt and 10.55 yards per completion – but they pale in comparison to Mettenberger, Aaron Murray (9.31 per attempt and 14.83 per completion) and Johnny Manziel (10.25 per attempt and 14.01 per completion).
Louisville can scratch those dreams of an unbeaten season and consideration to play in the national championship game after blowing a 21-point second half lead and falling to UCF, 38-35, Friday night. It's a game that shouldn't have been close. Louisville blew two touchdowns with turnovers, one a fumble into the end zone that killed a touchdown when UCF was teetering on the bring and the other a fumble that gave UCF a 15-yard field to work with which resulted in another TD. Charlie Strong has a very good team, just not one that's good enough to compete with the best teams in the country.
Barring a five-game barrage in which he throws for 5-6 touchdowns a game, you can forget Teddy Bridgewater winning the Heisman Trophy, too. Against that weakling schedule, Bridgewater almost had to go unbeaten to win the Heisman. It's supposed to go to the best player in the country – and he very well might be – but the voters will look at the weak schedule and hold it against Bridgewater that he didn't lead Louisville to an unbeaten season. It's not exactly Bridgewater's fault that Louisville lost Friday night. He was 29-38 for 341 yards and two touchdowns with zero picks. Great stats, for sure, but he didn't get the W and that's what he needed to overcome the perception that Louisville has been beating up on the Little Sisters of the Poor.
The only surprise in the reinstatement of Alabama safety Ha Ha Clinton-Dix by the NCAA is that it's a tad early. Nobody expected Dix to be suspended by the NCAA for any games that actually matter after accepting a $500 loan from a strength coach on the Bama staff who has ties to an agent. Thanks to the NCAA decision, Dix, who missed games with Georgia State and Kentucky, will get to play in Bama's "exhibition games" with Arkansas and Tennessee before facing sixth-ranked LSU on November 9.
Further evidence of just how far Grambling has fallen is evidenced by a player strike earlier in the week that remains unresolved. Grambling's game with Jackson State has been cancelled because its disgruntled players refused to travel. The once-mighty Tigers are 0-7 this year and they've already seen one coach (Doug Williams) fired. Citing problems with travel arrangements and the poor condition of facilities, the players refused to practice and that led to the firing of interim head coach George Ragsdale on Thursday. Grambling's players are upset with travel arrangements, the poor condition of their facilities and the coaching situation. The program that Eddie Robinson turned into a powerhouse that used to play games in Yankee Stadium, the Cotton Bowl and other famous venues, is in total disarray. He's probably rolling over in his grave right about now.
Besides Florida over Misery, I like South Carolina over Dollywood USA, Texas A&M over Aubrin, Alabama over Bill and Hilary State Clinton U, Rainy Night in Georgia over Gloria Vanderbilt and LSU over The Last Bastion of the Confederacy.
Last week: 6-1
Season: 61-5
There was a lot of good music coming out of Florida in the mid-to-late 1960s but one of my favorite bands was Dennis Yost and the Classics 4. They didn't have the screaming guitars or sultry blues sound of The Allman Brothers or that group over in Jacksonville that was just getting started, Lynyrd Skynyrd, but they had something those guys didn't have – a real singer. Dennis Yost could sing. What a mellow voice. I heard them in concert several times and the thing I always remembered was the voice and the melodies. They had three really big hits nationwide but the one that I always liked best was "Stormy."

It was a dominant performance by the Berkeley Stags in a 40-14 victory over James Island in Thursday night high school football action.
Head coach Jeff Cruce credits a tough non-conference schedule to start its season with helping the Stags be battle hardened now. "I think the tough schedule has helped us a lot, not only because of the quality of teams that we played, but four of those five games were against pretty big rivalries," he said.
Berkeley's three losses this season came to Summerville, Stratford and Manning, who have combined for a 13-2 record through five weeks. The Stags evened their record at 3-3 with the region 8-AAA win over James Island.
There are some great matchups in Friday night action, including:
Fort Dorchester at West Ashley
Summerville at Stratford
Hanahan at Orangeburg-Wilkinson
Goose Creek at Beaufort
Prep Zone is covering all the action from around the Lowcountry in its live blog (see below) at live.postandcourier.com.

After weeks six and seven featured a number of top five, the standings held strong this weekend as there was only slight jockeying for position among the top-ranked teams. There are a dozen undefeated teams left past the midway point of the 2012 college football season, with Notre Dame, Oregon State and Rutgers are among them.
Notre Dame's win over BYU may have not had the excitement and drama of the goal-line stand against Stanford or exhilaration of its last-minute win over Purdue. However, the Fighting Irish found a way to win another close game defeating Brigham Young 17-14. The Fighting Irish (7-0) continues its best start in a decade.
After a sleepy start because of an 11:00 a.m. kickoff, LSU shook off the cobwebs and woke up late in the second quarter. Trailing 12-0, the Tigers found their groove by forcing five turnovers while providing just enough offense to defeat the Aggies 24-19 at Kyle Field. A 47-yard TD run from Jeremy Hill gave the Bayou Bengals just enough breathing room for their second consecutive win against a ranked opponent.
Texas Tech silenced all the doubters this weekend. A week after the impressive five-touchdown victory over then-No. 5 West Virginia, the Red Raiders overcame an early 10-point deficit to take down TCU in triple overtime, 56-53. After blowing a 10-point lead late in regulation, Seth Doege stepped up and threw a touchdown in each period in overtime and finished with a career-best seven TDs.
Duke is the overwhelming story of the ACC weekend, having become bowl-eligible for the first time since 1994 after its thrilling 33-30 win over arch rival North Carolina. With 13 seconds remaining, Sean Renfree threw a 5-yard TD pass to Jamison Crowder on fourth down to lift the Blue Devils past the Tar Heels. Renfree converted on three third-and-longs during that game-winning 87-yard drive.
With eight weeks in the books, quarterbacks such as Kansas State's Collin Klein became a household name, while No. 1 Alabama still looks like the team to beat. The Crimson Tide have not been tested yet in their quest to win back-to-back national championships, but this may be the test when the Tide take on No. 11 Mississippi State in Tuscaloosa.
Another game to keep your eye on is No. 8 Oklahoma hosting No. 5 Notre Dame. The Irish defense will be put to the test against Landry Jones and a potent Oklahoma offense. No. 2 Florida and No. 10 Georgia will face off in the annual "cocktail party" in Jacksonville. A trip to the SEC Championship Game could be on the line when the Gators and Bulldogs square off.

Giix — Gii Extended a code generator for Yii PHP framework (scaffolding/code generation)
Posted 13 February 2012 - 08:31 PM
i.e. GiixModel and GiixCrud don't work out of the box with each other (because GiixCrud uses $model->setAttributes($_POST['Column']) and without the validation rules, no columns of type Text are updated).

I was wondering about the composite PK on the roadmap.
Will this be done "sometime soon" for CRUD?
If so, will it work for the existing yii code?
If not, what is the estimated effort for the average programmer to implement it?
have a nice day!

Hi yiivert,
There's no plan to have complete support for composite PK. Also, I can't estimate the effort it would take. You're welcome to check the source code and code this. giix source code is well documented. Then, if you want to contribute your work back to giix, I'll gladly take your patches.

I've got a question that's been asked before (on this thread too), but that I can't find the answer for. Can you post a working example of how to use the saveMultiple() function? I've figured out how to save a MANY-to-MANY, but can't find any examples of how to save a HAS_MANY or BELONGS_TO relationship.
In a hypothetical situation where I was updating a Comment view/model that also allowed updating the related BELONGS_TO Post for that comment, this is the code I've tried.
public function actionUpdate($id) { $model = $this->loadModel($id, 'Comment'); if (isset($_POST['Comment'])) { $model->setAttributes($_POST['Comment']); $post = new Post(); $post->setAttributes($_POST['Post']); $relatedData = array( array( 'model' => $model, 'modelOptions' => array( 'attributes' => $_POST['Comment'], ), ), array( 'model' => $post, 'modelOptions' => array( 'attributes' => $_POST['Post'], ), ), ); if ($model->saveMultiple($relatedData)) { $this->redirect(array('view', 'id' => $model->id)); } } }
But everytime I try it, I get an error:
Fatal error: Using $this when not in object context in protected/extensions/giix-components/GxActiveRecord.php on line 578
Any suggestions? Thanks! Oh, by the way, I'm running GiiX 1.9.1

I've installed giix and started using it. The GiixModel Generator works just great. But when I try to use the GiixCrud Generator I run into this:
1. I click on the Link "GiixCrud Generator" on the gii page (index.php?r=gii)
2. This opens up GiixCrud Generator page, but this page is broken. Only a few HTML lines are shown:

giix Crud Generator

This generator generates a controller and views that implement CRUD operations for the specified data model.

 Fields with * are required. Click on the highlighted fields to edit them.
<form id="yw0" action="/saja_cms/index.php?r=gii/giixCrud" method="post">
 Model Class *
There are no  tags, no css styling, no form is displad etc. Only what I've posted above. I've tested it on two different servers and run into the same problem.
Did anyone have this problem as well? I'm using the latests version of Yii (1.1.10).
Your help is very appreciated! I'd really like to use the crud functionality of giix, it would save me a lot of time.
Thanks for your help.

I can (and want) take giix there, but I'm so busy with another project right now that we won't benefit much in the short term.
As soon as there's some space in the current project, giix will hit GitHub. I look forward to the community's pull requests
Meanwhile, you can post issues and patches to Google Code.

I've been had the same issue as Nymphetamine, domo & TimLeary, with giixCrud giving browser error 101, (I'm also using WAMP), thought I should register on the forum to share my fix.
I've worked around the issue by editing extensions/giix-core/giixCrud/views/index.php to comment out the autocomplete input for model and replace with a normal text field:
 <?php echo $form->textField($model,'model',array('size'=>65)); ?>
My first guess would be the issue relates to the scandir function in getModels of GiixCrudGenerator, underscore in directory name is unusual for a windows system, maybe it's the _base folder but that's just a guess I don't really have time to investigate further.
Hope that helps.

I don't understand why Giix use checkbox in the _form, it's works so better with a multi select ...
for that i've modified the :
around line 144 :
replace : return "echo \$form->checkBoxList(\$model, '{$relationName}', GxHtml::encodeEx(GxHtml::listDataEx({$relationModel}::model()->findAllAttributes(null, true)), false, true))"; with : return "echo \$form->listBox(\$model, '{$relationName}', GxHtml::encodeEx(GxHtml::listDataEx({$relationModel}::model()->findAllAttributes(null, true)), false, true),array('multiple'=>'multiple'))";
it work with multiselect, saved and all fine, it's required ....
The only problem is i get a php notice on the controler
just after each action i need to manually make a :
if (!isset($_POST['XXX']['YYY']))
for information i've searched to translate the message :
1°: create protected\messages\fr\app.php
2°: copy the structure of yii\framework\messages\fr\yii.php
3°: enjoy the Giix Multilanguage !
ps : i'm french sorry for mistakes

Multiplying and Dividing Integers
Lesson 19 of 23
Objective: Students will be able to mulitply and divide integers.
Big Idea: More rules?! Yes, multiplication and division have their own set of rules – and can you make a tic tack toe board to help remember them?
Opener: As students enter the room, they will immediately pick up and begin working on the opener. Please see my instructional strategy clip for how openers work in my classroom (Instructional Strategy - Process for openers). This method of working and going over the opener lends itself to allow students to construct viable arguments and critique the reasoning of others, which is mathematical practice 3.
Learning Target: After completion of the opener, I will address the day's learning targets to the students. In today's lesson, the intended target is, "I can multiply and divide integers." Students will jot the learning target down in their agendas (our version of a student planner, there is a place to write the learning target for every da

Multiplying and Dividing Integers Notes: Multipying and Dividing Integers Explore Narrative
Instructional Strategy - How do table challenges work?: For today's table challenge I am going to have students complete multiplication and division of integers through evaluating expressions. The challenge utilizes the multiple choice feature of the smartboard. I will give the students the values of a, b and c prior to the challenge, and then each question will ask that they perform operations on those values. For this challenge, I will pull cards labeled 1-8 to determine which table (1-8) answers which question. As with all work with signed numbers, students will need to be precise with their calculations (mathematical practice 6). This activity also poses the questions in a new format (expressions) so students will need to persevere with problem solving to get them answered correctly (mathematical practice 1).
Resources (5)
Summarize + Homework
Tic Tac Toe: To summarize this lesson, I am going to ask students to discuss at their tables how they could arrange 3 positives and 6 negatives on a tic tac toe board such that every possible three in a row represents the multiplication and division sign rules. I will instruct tables to stand when they have the solution, and I will have the first table up to present it to the class.
Homework: I will pass out the homework assignment so that students have a moment to look it over before leaving class. Philosophy on Homework


text: Coaches Aren't Just for Jocks by Rabbi Aaron Lerner |Jun 30, 2014|Comments I haven't had a "coach" since high school. And I don't remember him fondly. He didn't believe in anything he couldn't see – so my "shin splints" did not really count for much in his eyes. He was invested in winning – but he did not seem to care about the cost. As a member of this year's Weinberg ACCELERATE cohort, I was blessed to experience a completely different kind of "coaching." Beth Gansky and Rae Ringel, Hillel's consultants and coaches of the Weinberg ACCELERATE cohort, didn't care how many laps I ran (though apparently I should still exercise…) – but they cared deeply about my professional and spiritual growth. And they listened (somewhat) sympathetically when I complained about ailments invisible to the physical eye. Through this coaching/mentorship process, I learned to appreciate the importance of a physically, emotionally, and spiritually healthy family, self, and professional staff. I learned that supervision requires a full-person-checkup, not just a check-in about logistics and planning. Most importantly, I saw how a healthy staff, family and self can increase the productivity of my Hillel. Not only did my coaches offer support and expert advice, they also brought accountability and helped make connections to people I never would have met on my own. Our bi-weekly calls kept me focused on the goals I established before things got "crazy" (i.e., before students arrived for the Quarter!) – and reminded me of the importance of ongoing professional and personal development even when the calendar is loaded. I'm grateful to my coaches, and to Hillel International and the Weinberg ACCELERATE program for this opportunity. For all Hillel professionals, I recommend reaching out to the Schusterman International Center or your Director to see what coaching opportunities might be available to you. Even if there isn't an 'official' program for you to participate in this year, I encourage you to ask about informal opportunities to connect with or be mentored by the awesome and talented cadre of colleagues we have at Hillel! Rabbi Aaron Lerner is the Simha & Sara Lainer Senior Jewish Educator at Hillel at UCLA. Five years ago, he left investment banking because he believes Judaism and Hillel transform lives, and consequently, the world.

Hartsville, S.C. – Senior Cobras, Josh Poston, Stevie Evans, Lukas Varga and Blake Terrell, played their final regular season game of their careers in Timberlake-Lawton Gymnasium on Thursday night, and with their leadership they went out with a big bang. The Cobras dominated the Trojans of Anderson University in a 21 point victory, 81-60.
Poston (Myrtle Beach, SC) had a game high 29 points, including going 12-for-16 from the field and 5-for-9 from beyond the arc, while Evans (Columbia, SC) had nine points, Varga (Pawley's Island, SC) had seven points and Terrell (Marietta, GA) had three points for Coker.
Coker improves 14-12 overall, and 10-9 in the conference, while Anderson falls to 13-13 overall and 11-7 in the conference.
Also scoring in double figures for Coker was Mason Ambler (Atlanta, GA) with 10 points and nine rebounds.
For Anderson, Stephen Cobb had 11 points and six rebounds, while Brandon Young and Kevis Cornwell each had 10 points.
Coker and Anderson return to action on Thursday, before they both prepare for the Conference Carolinas tournament starting on Saturday. Coker and Anderson will either be the 5th or 6th seed based on their final games, with Coker traveling to Erskine and Anderson hosting Pfeiffer.

After symbolic stops at two islands—Goree, off the coast of Senegal where he stood in the "door of no return" and Robben Island, off the coast of Cape Town, where he visited the cell occupied by Nelson Mandela for 18 of his 27 years behind bars for his anti-apartheid struggle—President Obama took to the mainland with a speech at Cape Town University last Sunday.
Never one to miss an opportunity to connect with his audience, the president greeted the assembly of students in several African languages. "See, I've been practicing," he said to applause and cheers from the crowd.
Then it was down to business, and business, especially "partnership" resonated throughout his hour-long speech. And only the words "initiative" and "women" were mentioned more.
"Now, America has been involved in Africa for decades," Obama said as he warmed to his subject. "But we are moving beyond the simple provision of assistance, foreign aid, to a new model of partnership between America and Africa -– a partnership of equals that focuses on your capacity to solve problems, and your capacity to grow. Our efforts focus on three areas that shape our lives: opportunity, democracy, and peace."
Clearly, the South African government is at the center of his plan, and that was underscored when he announced a key initiative.
"So today, I am proud to announce a new initiative," he said. "We've been dealing with agriculture; we've been dealing with health. Now we're going to talk about power — Power Africa — a new initiative that will double access to power in sub-Saharan Africa. Double it." And the response to this commitment was thunderous ovation.
"We're going to start by investing $7 billion in U.S. government resources," he continued. "We're going to partner with the private sector, who themselves have committed more than $9 billion in investment. And in partnership with African nations, we're going to develop new sources of energy. We'll reach more households not just in cities, but in villages and on farms. We'll expand access for those who live currently off the power grid. And we'll support clean energy to protect our planet and combat climate change. So, a light where currently there is darkness; the energy needed to lift people out of poverty — that's what opportunity looks like."
The trip to Africa was also an opportunity for Obama to repeat his admiration for the ailing Mandela, who is on life support. No meeting was planned between the two men who share a number of commonalities, none more obvious than being the first Black presidents of their country.
"Now, obviously, today Madiba's health weighs heavily on our hearts," Obama said, using Mandela's clan name. "And like billions all over the world, I — and the American people — have drawn strength from the example of this extraordinary leader, and the nation that he changed. Nelson Mandela showed us that one man's courage can move the world. And he calls on us to make choices that reflect not our fears, but our hopes — in our own lives, and in the lives of our communities and our countries. And that's what I want to speak to all of you about today."
In taking his measure of the current economic, political and cultural condition of the continent, the president focused on women, a topic that was unavoidable since he was traveling with his wife, his two daughters, and his mother-in-law.
"Just to editorialize here for a second, because my father's home country of Kenya — like much of Africa — you see women doing work and not getting respect," he said. "I tell you, you can measure how well a country does by how it treats its women. And all across this continent, and all around the world, we've got more work to do on that front. We've got some sisters saying, 'Amen.'"
The president will not be going to his father's homeland but his trip does include a day in nearby Tanzania, which, at the moment is experiencing an outbreak of violence and demonstrations.
Most of the African nations given special mentioned in his speech were those where democracy appears to be working. However, it was curious to hear him berate and then praise the way things are progressing in Zimbabwe.
"Just look at your neighbor, Zimbabwe," he reminded his South African audience, "where the promise of liberation gave way to the corruption of power and then the collapse of the economy. Now, after the leaders of this region — led by South Africa — brokered an end to what has been a long-running crisis, Zimbabweans have a new constitution, the economy is beginning to recover. So there is an opportunity to move forward — but only if there is an election that is free, and fair, and peaceful, so that Zimbabweans can determine their future without fear of intimidation and retribution. And after elections, there must be respect for the universal rights upon which democracy depends."
Curiously, there was no mention of China but it's hard to believe that Obama and his administration are not wary of the power and influence, the inroads, literally and figuratively, the country has made throughout Africa.
He will get some semblance of the Chinese presence when he arrives in Tanzania, particularly if he traverses the marketplace or ventures near the rail lines.
Obama ended his speech where it began on the indomitable spirit and determination of the African people. "It is that spirit, that innate longing for justice and equality, for freedom and solidarity — that's the spirit that can light the way forward. It's in you. And as you guide Africa down that long and difficult road, I want you to know that you will always find the extended hand of a friend in the United States of America," he promised.

COLUMBIA - Solar-energy supporters mourned the demise of legislation that would have offered a 35 percent state tax credit for the installation of solar energy equipment in homes and businesses.
"Unfortunately, sometimes at the Statehouse we lose. It was tough to see two bills that we worked on for two years fail due to the stubborn objections of just a handful of legislators. It was particularly frustrating because both bills had been amended to answer the concerns of opponents," said the Conservation Voters of S.C. in a post-session legislative update.
Andrew Streit, founder and board member of the S.C. Solar Business Alliance, called the loss "bitterly disappointing" on Tuesday. The second year of the two-year General Assembly ended its normal legislative session in June.
"For three years I've been trying to educate people about the benefits of solar and how a small amount of state support to get the industry up and running would have been rock solid economic development," he said, pointing to added installation and support jobs.
He noted that most states in the region offer better incentives to the solar industry than South Carolina, which he said has a residential credit capped at $3,500.
The Solar Tax Incentive bill targeted state tax credit installations in operation after 2011.
According to the Conservation Voters, the bill, H.3346, was amended to include performance standards for job creation before it lost momentum in April in the Senate Finance Committee.

The widespread consumer adoption of social media channels to share experiences – both good and bad – has forced brands to work much harder to influence purchase decisions, keep customers loyal and win new customers.
Successful brands will identify which online conversations matter to most, and extract insights that can feed into key activities, such as customer management, product development or advertising.
We extract relevant information from social channels and integrate it with additional data – such as brand and sales tracking, panel data and insights from our market experts. This allows us to go beyond social media listening; giving our clients the full market context and a strong foundation on which to base smart business decisions.
GfK's Social Media Intelligence (SMI) researchers analyze consumer-generated content across all owned and earned social media channels globally. Our human-based coding and search technology ensures the high quality of our social media intelligence solutions.

10 ways to a better holiday
10 ways to a better holiday
Guests need a nibble the minute they come into your house. Some haven't eaten since early morning in anticipation of the feast. Nothing is quite as satisfying as crisp, crunchy, cheesy baguettes. Halve a skinny French loaf, cut it into 4-inch lengths, and toast until the cut sides are crisp. Add thin slices of sharp cheddar and toast again until the cheese melts. Spoon fig preserves and a thin slice of fresh fig onto each one.
If you've decided this year that your entire table isn't going to be a medley of purees, you can swap out mashed potatoes for potato skins. (Remember those? They're crisp and delicious.) Bake russet potatoes, halve them, and remove all but ¼ inch of the flesh. (Save this flesh for tomorrow's hash browns.) Cut each potato lengthwise into 3 strips. Brush the flesh sides with vegetable oil, and sprinkle with salt, pepper, and Parmesan. Bake at 400 degrees for 10 minutes. Sprinkle with crumbled crisp bacon and chopped scallions.
Delicata is one of the best-tasting squashes in the fall harvest and easy to handle. Halve and seed the squash, cut it into irregular triangular pieces, and toss with olive oil, salt, and pepper. Roast in a 400-degree oven for 30 minutes or until tender.
Once you make your own croutons, you'll never go back to the commercial kind. Begin with a 1-pound loaf of unsliced challah (to make 8 cups). Let it sit out for several hours, remove the crusts, and cut the bread into 1-inch cubes. Sprinkle with canola oil and a little salt. Toast in a 350-degree oven for 30 minutes, turning often, until crisp and golden.
Sometimes it's fun to put all the vegetables into one dish, either roasted in large pieces, or diced, steamed, and fried into a colorful hash. The day after Thanksgiving, use hash leftovers as the base for poached eggs.
Your bird will roast quicker if it is not stuffed. Spread the bready mixture, filled with homemade croutons (see No. 4), portobello mushrooms, sausages, and pecans in a baking dish and you get crusty topping across the dish. Isn't that what everyone wants?
Crisp roast potatoes, caramelized at the edges, are a fine accompaniment to all roast meats. Cut Yukon Gold, red, or russet potatoes (or a combination) into irregular spears and toss in a bowl with vegetable oil, salt, pepper, and chopped rosemary. Spread in one layer on a rimmed baking sheet and roast at 400 degrees, turning often, for 40 minutes or until golden.
Lemon meringue pie is ideal on the dessert buffet after the Thanksgiving feast. But all that work! Make it seriously quicker by spreading 3-inch buttery shortbread cookies with lemon curd, to within ¼ inch of the edges. Set them on a rimmed baking sheet lined with parchment. Stiffly beat 2 egg whites with a pinch of cream of tartar and a couple spoonfuls of sugar. Use a pastry bag fitted with a star tip or the back of a spoon to spread the meringue on the cookies so they look like tiny pies with peaks in the center. Bake at 350 degrees for 15 minutes or until the meringue browns.
If you're hopeless at pie pastry, try this deconstructed apple "pie" made with thick slices of toasted challah. Cut the bread into triangles, butter it, and toast it in a 375-degree oven for 10 minutes or until lightly browned. Saute wedges of baking apples such as Cortland in plenty of butter, sprinkle with cinnamon and sugar, and spoon over the challah. Top with whipped cream.
While everyone is lollygagging in the living room, and you have another ounce of energy, use kitchen shears to cut up the turkey carcass. In a soup pot, combine the carcass, any vegetables from the turkey roasting pan or the dinner, juices that accumulated on the turkey platter, even a few generous spoonfuls of pureed sweet potato or squash or stuffing. Add plenty of water, bring to a boil, cover, and simmer for 2 hours. Lift out the bones, letting any meat fall into the soup. Sprinkle bowls with chopped parsley.

BRISTOL, Tenn. – Adrian Lopez and Matthew Lychock combined for 17 block assists in King's defensive stand that turned a 2-1 deficit into a thrilling 3-2 victory over visiting Lees-McRae College. The Tornado forced a fifth game and broke four set points before willing their way to an 18-16 fifth set win, clinching the match for their first Conference Carolinas victory of the season.
After winning the race to eight points in the fifth set and swapping sides of the court, Bobcat hitter Javier Jimenez posted a pair of kills to help Lees-McRae take a 12-11 lead and force King to take its first timeout of the set. Matt Harpenau tossed up an ace but followed with an error from the service line to keep the LMC advantage at one point.
Serving specialist Justin Crane came in off of the bench to take to the service line but reigning Conference Carolinas Men's Volleyball Player of the Week returned with his ninth kill of the evening to force the Bobcats' first match point.
Middle blocker Matthew Harper (Matoaca, Va.) continued his strong showing off of the bench when out of a King timeout the sophomore tallied his second of four kills in the set. He scored three more kills in the waning parts of the final set to serve as King's main offensive threat in the decisive frame.
Harper helped break Lees-McRae's second match point attempt with another authoritative kill, tying the set, 15-15. John Lucas helped LMC regain a 16-15 lead and forced King to face another into another do-or-die moment. For the second straight match point, Harper rallied with kill to tie the set at 16 all. At that moment, King gained the momentum needed to finish off the Bobcats when senior Michael Koebel (Richmond, Va.) gave King its last lead, 17-16, before the trio of Adrian Lopez, Matthew Lychock, and Zach Prexta swarmed the net to block Matt Harpenau's attack attempt and clinch an 18-16 set win and earn their first Conference Carolinas victory of the season over their rivals from Banner Elk, N.C.
The Tornado notched 6.5 blocks in the fifth set, the most of any single game in the match between the two sides. As the team hit the 10-point mark in the final set, King already had six block assists and one solo block by setter Ashton Hippenstiel (Yucaipa, Calif.).
Leading up to the decisive final frame, King trailed 2-1 after the Bobcats hit at high rates in the second and third games of the match. Lees-McRae took a two-to-one game lead after hitting a combined .389 in their 25-22 and 25-20 victories. Matt Harpenau and Javier Jimenez both had seven kills over that two-game span.
King dominated the fourth set which began to shift the momentum of the match toward the Navy and Scarlett side. The Tornado built as many as a seven-point lead when they recorded three blocks and were led by three kills by Michael Koebel to take an 11-4 lead. They did not relent and never led by fewer than six points from that moment on. The Tornado hit .375 as a team in the frame and committed only two errors.
Adrian Lopez (Houston, Texas) had a career night at the net by leading the team with 10 block assists. Of those, five were in the fourth and fifth set to help lead King to the win. He also hit .500 on the attack on 6-of-10 attempts with one error.
Michael Koebel led King with 11 kills on 32 attempts (.250). He chipped in two of the Tornado's 37 block assists. Matthew Lychock (Las Vegas, Nev.) claimed seven block assists from the middle blocker position and added six kills. Matthew Harper came into the match for the fourth and fifth sets. In that short time he tallied six kills and four block assists to help seal the victory for King.
Though Lees-McRae tallied seven team blocks, four solo, King dominated the net by recording 37 block assists and one solo across the participating roster.
Also aiding in King's comeback victory was the Bobcats' lack of efficiency at the service line. Lees-McRae committed 23 service errors to help King stay within reach and ultimately overcome the deficit. Conversely, King committed only 10 service errors and had seven aces.
Lees-McRae (1-1, 1-1 Conference Carolinas) had four players finish in double figures for kills, despite the loss. Javier Jimenez led the Bobcats with 18 kills on 31 attempts (.290). John Lucas (13), Matt Harpenau (11), and Brady Markle (10) all had 10 or more kills on the night. Markle also led the Bobcats at the net with the team's two solo blocks and two block assists.
The win gives King a clean sweep in the three points on the line toward the inaugural Battle for the Blue Ridge Cup between the two rival schools. Earlier in the week, King men's and women's basketball earned wins over the Bobcats. Coupled with Wednesday night's men's volleyball victory, King holds a 7-2 advantage in the standings with 16 more points to be decided over the course of the athletic season.
King Men's Volleyball now has the distinct honor of having won the first athletic contest after the College announced its official name change to "King University" on Wednesday. This marked the first athletic contest played under the new name just hours after the announcement was released to the public in a press conference held in the Student Center Complex lobby.
The Tornado are now 2-4 overall on the season and are 1-3 in conference play. They play their next two matches on the road against conference opponents Erskine (Jan. 25) and Limestone (Jan. 26) before returning to the Student Center Complex on Feb. 1 to play the Coker Cobras.
