GAFFNEY, S.C. – Freshman Luke Hansen led the Coker men's volleyball team with 12-kills in Saturday's (Feb. 16) 3-1 loss to Limestone College.
The first set was neck-and-neck as both teams exchanged points. Suddenly, Limestone scored three straight points and took a 17-13 lead that prompted a Coker timeout.
After the timeout, Coker rallied back and would eventually tie the set at 24. The Cobras then battled to a 29-29 tie with the Saints, and would take the next two points to capture the first set win.
Limestone however, would prove to be too strong for the Cobras as they took control and won the next three sets (25-21, 25-16, 25-15) in a row.
Liam Flaherty was second in kills for the Cobras after he recorded nine. Ricardo Ferrer tallied 29-assists, while Cooper Lyon tied for the game high 12-digs.
As a team Coker earned 38-kills, 34-assists, 28-digs, and two blocks.
Coker will look to bounce back on Sunday (Feb. 17), when they play against Washington Adventist, The game is scheduled for a 10:00 am start time.


text: Today is the 150th anniversary of the publication of On the Origin of Species, and, reports have it, the mainstream media has decided, in its infinitely misguided goal to be "fair and balanced" about things, to give publicity to ignoramuses. So, I'm told, Stephen Meyer spouts his usual string of canards on CNN, and Time has apparently weighed in by interviewing some dimwit named Dennis Sewell on Darwin's "Dark Legacy" (ooooooo!). You know, the usual Godwinning, "evilushun is to blame for school shootings oh noes!!!" feces. Well, I choose to ignore ignorance. And I'm not linking to it, because blithering anti-science idiocy does not deserve to be rewarded with links. Instead, I'll simply raise a toast to one of the greatest and most important works of science of all time. Long after Christianity — and indeed, the human race — has settled into dust, whatever living things remain on this earth will continue to evolve, and the panoply of life will continue. Which is the reason Roger Ebert has described evolution as the "most consoling of all the sciences." Because it not only tells us that life will find a way, but it tells us how. All thanks to Chuck D. Well done, sir.

County opts out of oil, gas lawsuit
Staff writer
Commissioners decided Monday that the trouble of joining other Kansas counties in a lawsuit against the state was not worth the risk.
County Treasurer Jeannine Bateman said she heard the lawsuit is to prevent the state from sweeping an oil and gas depletion fund the state holds through a mineral severance tax.
A bill passed in 2011 said the state was to pay counties 20 percent of what it holds to their general fund to help offset a loss of production.
"I hate to be mercenarial about it, but if we don't join the lawsuit, and it goes down, and they win, we'll make out," Commissioner Dan Holub said. "Just because you're not in the lawsuit doesn't mean you're not going to benefit."
Commissioners have until Friday to notify a Topeka attorney of their decision.
Tower not too tall
The commission also felt no need to worry about the height of a proposed telecommunications tower by Union Pacific to go on 140th Road in Aulne.
The tower, which is 190 feet tall, would be in violation with a local ordinance that says structures must be as far from county roads as their height.
Union Pacific representatives notified Planning and Zoning Director Tonya Richards there was no way to meet operational standards by shortening or moving the tower.
Union Pacific is federally exempt from county regulations anyway, and indicated they will review the structural design to confirm that the tower would collapse, rather than tip over.
In other business:
- The commission received word from Transfer Station Director Rollin Schmidt that recycling bins for Centre, Burns, Florence, Durham, Tampa, and Goessel had arrived, and Marion County stickers were being made for them.
- Commissioners voted to pay $1,490 for a new tractor jack for mechanics in Road and Bridge department.
- The commission met in a special session that evening to conduct an interview for the open appraiser position.
- Will move Ashley Friesen into the deputy clerk position due to the resignation of Rhonda Toal. Friesen will still hold her regular duties with payroll and personnel.
- Economic Development Director Teresa Huffman's 7-year-old office computer will be replaced for $1,173.

Residents still dealing with severe flooding in wake of Tropical Depression Cindy
Flooding is still a problem for some Louisiana residents Friday after Tropical Depression Cindy made its way through the state.
WDSU spoke with Lafitte Mayor Tim Kerner to find out what plans are in the works to clear the streets. Mayor Kerner said emergency crews will be out as the tide goes down to try and pump the remaining water off the street and into the gulf.
It's welcome news for Ray Griffin, the owner of Cochiaras Marina in lower Lafitte.
"To see your customers, your friends, your family, our neighbors have their houses completely flooded from 1 foot to 6 feet depending on what the hurricane is, it's just horrible," Griffin said.
The flooding doesn't just hurt business. Griffin said it's tough on the families in lower Lafitte.
"When the roads are flooded, you can't get to work. Kids can't get to school or day care. The business loses a substantial amount of money because you got no customers. They can't leave their house," Griffin said.
Mayor Kerner has a plan in the works to help these families outside of the levee protection system. It's currently in the design phase. It consists of building ring levees around 10 of the islands in lower Lafitte at a cost of $250 million dollars.
Kerner said the money would come from a combination of taxpayer dollars, state and federal funds, along with recovery funding after the BP oil spill.

Above: Murder Victim Dave Marnuik B.C. Supreme Court Justice Bill Smart decried public gang violence Thursday as he sentenced Greeks boss Peter Manolakos to life in prison with no hope of parole for 25 years for first-degree murder.
At the same time, Smart handed Manolakos a concurrent sentence of 15 years — minus more than 13 years pre-trial credit — for a manslaughter conviction in the brutal beating death of Greeks driver David Marnuik in July 2004.
Smart also sentenced Greeks associate Douglas Brownell to 17 years, minus 12 years pre-trial credit for two manslaughter convictions in the deaths of Greeks gang rivals Thomas Bryce in November 2004 and Ron Thom in May 2005.
Smart said Brownell was not an active member of the Greeks at the time, but was working in the drug trade to support his own addiction.
The judge accepted statements made by Brownell at his sentencing hearing last month that he is remorseful for his actions and has turned his life around.
"I am satisfied that his emotion is genuine and his remorse is sincere," Smart said as Brownell sat in the prisoner's box at the Vancouver Law Courts, just a seat away from Manolakos.
Smart started the sentencing hearing by making what he called "general observations" about the gang situation in B.C.
"On an almost weekly basis, the public sees and hears the risks posed to a peaceful and just society by gangs involved in the drug trade. Such gangs challenge the rule of law and create fear in law-abiding citizens that they, their children and other family members may be harmed simply because they are in the wrong place at the wrong time," Smart said.
"The consequences to individuals and the community caused by gangs trafficking illicit drugs are extraordinary. They include violence on public streets, property crime, ruined lives and huge expenditures of public resources. Members of gangs involved in the illicit drug trade in Canada convicted of murder, manslaughter and other violent offences must be met with harsh sentences. Such sentences are a critical part of how the courts can express society's denunciation for such violence in an attempt to deter others and keep our communities safe."
Smart noted Manolakos's role as "the leader of a criminal organization that operated an illegal drug trafficking business."
"He is an intelligent man who maintained control of his gang and expanded his drug business by the use of violence and intimidation. He ran a business with the apparent indifference as to the consequences of the drugs he sold and the violence he encouraged had on individuals or the community of Vernon," Smart said.
"Mr. Manolakos operated a relatively sophisticated drug business and manipulated and controlled those who worked for him through a variety of ways — first by the use of violence and the threat of violence. Second, by the force of his personality. Third, by the financial rewards and sense of belonging and friendship that he held out to his senior members."
Manolakos was convicted of manslaughter in the brutal beating and torture death of Marnuik for ordering his enforcers to find Marnuik and beat him for stealing drugs and money while on shift. Manolakos was also convicted of first-degree murder for ordering the hit on Thom, who the Greeks mistakenly believed was helping police.
Brownell's role in the two deaths was lesser than others, Smart said, and in part related to his drug use at the time.
While Brownell joined in the fatal beating of Bryce on a popular beach front outside of Vernon, he did not inflict the fatal baseball bat blow to the head, Smart said.
"He did participate in a continuous assault of a man who was outnumbered, helpless and lying on the ground," Smart said.
Brownell's role in Thom's death a few months later was to escort him from his campsite to the spot where the Greeks were waiting for him. He didn't know they planned to kill Thom, Smart said.
"Mr. Brownell knew that Mr. Thom would very likely suffer a beating at the hands of the Greeks enforcers," Smart said.
Both Manolakos and Brownell got two-for-one credit for most of their pre-trial custody. (Routine double time credit was eliminated by the federal government after their arrest.)
Smart also gave Brownell 2.5-to-one pre-trial jail credit for the last year of his incarceration because he was held in solitary confinement due to threats against him.
Three other Greeks enforcers — Dale Sipes, Leslie Podolski and Sheldon O'Donnell — have already been sentenced to life in prison with no parole for 25 years for their roles in the slayings of Marnuik, Bryce and Thom.
William Mastop, a lawyer who pleaded guilty to working for the criminal organization, will be sentenced next month.
The RCMP put together a special task force to look into the gang's activities in 2004 and 2005, resulting in arrests and charges in May 2006.
While jurors heard evidence in three murders, Greeks gang members are also suspects in four other slayings in the north Okanagan.
At the time of the first Greeks arrests in May 2006, police said the gangsters were major players in the drug trade in the Okanagan and also had tentacles that reached to Grande Prairie, Edmonton, Vancouver and other cities. They also had links to the Hells Angels.

The stars look to be in perfect alignment for tax relief. With a GOP majority in both houses of Congress, the Bush Administration is making eager and energetic noises, and the economy is in what Fed Chairman Greenspan calls a soft spot.
But as the Republicans construct their tax plan, there is a large and under-appreciated fact they would do well to keep in mind. Over the past decade or so, fewer and fewer Americans have been paying income taxes and still fewer have been paying a significant percentage of income in taxes. While we would opt for a perfect world in which everybody paid far less in taxes, our increasingly two-tiered tax system is undermining the political consensus for cutting taxes at all.
Even the barest of glances at tax data reveal a system that is steeply progressive. Tax revenue has been increasingly squeezed out of top earners. According to the most recent data, from 1999, the richest--with income above half a million dollars--constituted 0.5% of taxpayers but accounted for 28% of total tax revenue. Simply put, a tiny group of people (553,380) were responsible for more than one-quarter of the income tax take of $877 billion.
Well, maybe you're saying--so what? They can afford it. Then take a look at those who aren't Richie Rich. The most recent data from the IRS, in 2000, show that the top 5% coughed up more than half of total tax revenue. Specifically, we are talking about folks with adjusted gross incomes of $128,336 and higher being responsible for 56% of the tax take. Eyebrows raised? There's more. The top 50% of taxpayers accounted for almost all income tax revenue--96% of the total take.
These numbers are more arresting when compared with the situation 14 years earlier. In 1986, the top 1% paid 26% of revenue, the top 5% was responsible for 42% and the top half contributed 93%. And what about the bottom half of taxpayers? They accounted for 7% of the total in 1986 but only 4% in 2000.
This skewed reality is the result of a growing number of absolutely legal escape hatches. Consider what happens to those in the lowest bracket. Say a person earns $12,000. After subtracting the personal exemption, the standard deduction and assuming no tax credits, then applying the 10% rate of the lowest bracket, the person ends up paying a little less than 4% of income in taxes. It ain't peanuts, but not enough to get his or her blood boiling with tax rage.
Of course, lower-income workers are on the hook for the payroll tax--but a sizable group slip free from even that net tax liability via the refundable earned income tax credit. ("Refundable" means that even if your net income tax liability is zero, the government still writes you a check.)
These numbers represent only people who have a positive adjusted gross income. In 1999, there were 127 million tax filers, 94.5 million of whom showed an income tax liability. That is, 26% had no liability at all. The actual number of people filing without paying comes to 16 million (after subtracting those getting earned income tax credits and thus, presumably, still somewhat sensitive to tax rates). So almost 13% of all workers have no tax liability and so are indifferent to income tax rates. And that doesn't include another 16.5 million who have some income but don't file at all.
Who are these lucky duckies? They are the beneficiaries of tax policies that have expanded the personal exemption and standard deduction and targeted certain voter groups by introducing a welter of tax credits for things like child care and education. When these escape hatches are figured against income, the result is either a zero liability or a liability that represents a tiny percentage of income. The 1986 tax reform, for example, with its giant increase in the personal exemption and standard deduction, took six to seven million people off the tax rolls.
This complicated system of progressivity and targeted rewards is creating a nation of two different tax-paying classes: those who pay a lot and those who pay very little. And as fewer and fewer people are responsible for paying more and more of all taxes, the constituency for tax cutting, much less for tax reform, is eroding. Workers who pay little or no taxes can hardly be expected to care about tax relief for everybody else. They are also that much more detached from recognizing the costs of government.
All of which suggests that the last thing the White House should do now is come up with more exemptions, deductions and credits that will shrink the tax-paying population even further.

The lucky duckies who pay no income taxes
According to the November 20, 2002 Wall Street Journal editorial "The Non-Taxpaying Class: Those lucky duckies":

O'Reilly: Homeless heat wave victims could have found "some place to cool off" but were "mentally incapable of taking care of themselves"
Fox News host Bill O'Reilly declared that during the recent heat wave that plagued cities across the United States, "if you wanted to cool off, you could find some place to cool off," and therefore the numerous homeless individuals who died in Phoenix and Las Vegas, two of the cities hardest hit by the soaring temperatures, were "mentally incapable of taking care of themselves." O'Reilly's comments came during a July 26 interview with Phoenix-based homeless advocate Terry Boyer and Las Vegas attorney Jim Vilt.
Earlier in the segment, Boyer had addressed the "tendency to portray the homeless as being all alcoholic or all severely mentally ill who are bums and really don't care." He went on to state that this portrayal "certainly is not the case." Boyer, director of the Day Resource Center in Phoenix, cited one of his clients as an example. "He was not intoxicated," Boyer said. "He had passed -- he was sitting out in the park and became heat exhausted. And he passed out and died."
A July 25 Associated Press article [1] placed the number of heat-related fatalities in Phoenix at 24, most of them transients. In the days after O'Reilly's comments on July 26, the death toll rose even higher, reaching 29 in Phoenix and 40 nationwide [AP, 7/27/05 [2]].
From the July 26 edition of Fox News' The O'Reilly Factor:
O'REILLY: Now some people tell me that a number of these homeless people become intoxicated, and then they get dehydrated from that. And they're immobile so they don't get out of the sun. And that's what kicks them. Is that true?
BOYER: For some, yes, but that is by no means the norm. I think there's been a tendency to portray the homeless as being all alcoholic or all severely mentally ill who are bums and really don't care. And that certainly is not the case.
I know for a fact that one of the people that died last weekend had been one of our clients. He was not intoxicated. He had passed -- he was sitting out in the park and became heat exhausted. And he passed out and died.
O'REILLY: All right, well, obviously no town wants squads of homeless hanging around. Phoenix at one time would -- I don't know whether you remember this or not, Mr. Boyer -- but Phoenix at one time very tough against the homeless, enforced the vagrancy laws and actually drove them to the city limits and dumped them out. Do you remember that?
BOYER: I do. I do remember that.
O'REILLY: But that's changed dramatically in your town, has it not?
BOYER: It most assuredly has. We have some great advocates in the police department, and even with the local governments who are trying to work together to address the homeless situation. It's not something that's not criminal to be homeless. So we're all trying to work together to come to a reasonable solution.
O'REILLY: Yes, but it seems to me in Phoenix and Las Vegas, if you wanted to cool off, you could find some place to cool off. So my bottom line is, I think that these people are, you know, mentally incapable of taking care of themselves.
Mr. Vilt, I'll give you the last word on that. That's my read on it. They cannot take care of themselves.
VILT: Well, again, there's not a lot of options for these folks. I mean, short of public libraries, there's not a whole lot of indoor places to take refuge.
We do have Catholic Charities, which opened up a 100-bed facility. And we have 5,000 to 8,000 people on the streets. Tough -- pretty difficult for 5,000 to 8,000 people to find air conditioning in this town.
Previous O'Reilly comments about the homeless are featured in Media Matters for America's award-winning [3] Flash animation short film "Right-Wing Squares [4]."

Stage seven sees the Tour spend a second day in France's Massif Central. Despite being on of the shortest stages of the race, this will be no easy day for the peloton. Like the previous stage, today's course will be nervous as it traverses the twisting and rolling roads of this part of the country. There will be very little flat riding all day, but the main obstacle will be the second category Pas de Peyrol (Puy Mary) with 42 kilometres remaining.
The historic city of Brioude is another of this year's first time stage towns, but Aurillac has been visited six times before. The last time the Tour finished here was 1985, and the 237.5-kilometre stage from Saint-Étienne was won by Spain's Eduardo Chozas. Race leader Bernard Hinault had crashed in the sprint on the previous stage and was riding to his fifth overall victory with a fractured nose.

Libertarians hit RNC roadblock
HOLLYWOOD, Calif. — In the GOP's ongoing establishment vs. grassroots saga, chalk one up for the establishment.
Since Mitt Romney's loss, the Rand Paul wing of the party has been on the ascendency. But libertarians hit a roadblock Friday as the Republican National Committee opted at its spring meeting to keep in place a host of rules rammed through by the Romney campaign at last year's national convention.
Story Continued Below
The move represents at least a small setback to Rand Paul's 2016 hopes, potentially making it more difficult for him or another candidate with strong grassroots support to pick up delegates. Had the rules been in effect last year — they were adopted after Mitt Romney secured the nomination — the former Massachusetts governor would likely have wrapped up the nomination much earlier and avoided the drawn-out warfare that weakened him heading into the general election against Barack Obama.
( Also on POLITICO: RNC's celeb plan falls flat in Hollywood)
One plank that was maintained, for example, allows more states to award delegates on a winner-take-all basis, instead of proportionally. An attempt to overturn another rule that bounds a state delegation to support whoever won a statewide vote received only 49 votes; 107 committee members voted to keep it in place.
The vote followed a heated debate. Paul backers argued that the Romney rules favor big-money candidates at the expense of contenders with devoted followings among activists.
"This damages grassroots candidates in general, whether that be Rand or anyone else," said Paul backer Jeff Larson, who carpooled from Texas with friends to lobby the committee.
( Also on POLITICO: RNC pulls in $20 million to start year)
Ron Paul's 2012 deputy campaign manager, Dimitri Kesari, promised that the state chairmen and committee members who voted against rolling back the Romney rules will be forced to explain themselves if they run for reelection.
"This is just a first salvo," he said.
Tea party groups including FreedomWorks also admonished the committee and promised to keep pushing back against any effort to centralize power.
Establishment figures called it unfair that Rick Santorum won caucuses in states like Iowa and Minnesota but then Paul wound up controlling the delegation because his supporters organized better for the conventions that pick delegates. They complained that it's wasteful to force campaigns to expend resources winning an election and then winning delegates.
( Also on POLITICO: Rand Paul makes case for libertarianism in 2016)
But even as establishment types won the caucus fight, the committee's four-day meeting here made clear that their biggest prize – a regional primary that would allow a well-funded candidate to clinch the nomination quickly – is well out of reach.
Last month the party's "autopsy" task force — co-chaired by George W. Bush's former press secretary, Ari Fleischer, as well as Haley Barbour's nephew and a Jeb Bush confidante — suggested that primaries are preferable to caucuses. They also called on the party to explore "a regional primary system or some other form of a major reorganization instead of the current system."
This would give a structural advantage to more moderate candidates who can raise lots of money to afford big TV buys across multiple states holding their primaries on the same day. Candidates seeking to build momentum early in a state that's cheap to advertise in would be at a disadvantage.
Dozens of interviews revealed pretty widespread opposition to regional primaries.

Factors That effects The Cost of Drilling Borehole in Onitsha
The soil geology of the land in Onitsha on which the bore hole is to be constructed, plays a major part in the service cost of drilling the borehole. We are aware that our borehole drilling equipment is the best in the market in comparison to others being used by other borehole drillers. Building a water borehole on a land filled with rocks will ultimately attract a higher cost than one being drilled on a land with less hard and stony surfaces.
The cost of water borehole drilling equipment in Nigeria and around the world is no joke, and these equipment need to be serviced frequently to avoid damage and ensure our clients get the best borehole drilling service available. These and many more are among the factors that affect the cost of borehole drilling in Onitsha as there is no fixed cost. Basically, the quality of the land, topography and location determine the cost that will be estimated by the service provider and communicated to the client.
There are some areas where the standard depth for drilling a borehole doesn't assure you access to even a drop of water because of the nature of the soil. These areas require more efforts from the personnel available, as well as the tools required to ensure your land is not a forgotten cause as our machines go deeper into the depths that other tools can't, to ensure your access to water. If we are to embrace reality, everybody knows the charges for a borehole on such lands will be higher, than on more fertile lands.
Now that you know the factors that effect The Cost of Drilling Borehole in Onitsha…What's Your Decision?As they say, cheap things won't stand the test of time. We do affordable, we don't do cheap as we ensure you get your money's worth. When it comes to cost in relation to Water Borehole Drillers, there are many perks you'll enjoy by patronizing us. Our water borehole installations are ISO 9001 compliant and budget friendly when compared to what is obtainable in Nigeria We offer you the optimal and industry approved water borehole construction techniques to ensure your access to purified water, no matter the location and geology of your land. With Water Borehole Drillers Nigeria Company, you get the quality you deserve. Call us now for the best borehole drilling service in Nigeria and we will proffer decent plans that'll benefit you in terms of cost. Call 08039422997 or 08090111175 to get a fast quote today!

We're all accustomed to Super Bowl ads for chips and soda and beer.
But it's a new day. And, this year, we'll also get pitched on healthier fare.
For starters, there will be lots of yogurt ads — both Dannon and Chobani will make a play for game-time viewers. Pistachios will make their debut. And Cheerios will keep it interesting, too.
Now, in order to overcome the better-for-you snooze factor, companies are turning to sex appeal, star power and intimate father-daughter moments to create a buzz.
Take the Dannon ad for its Greek-style Oikos. The vibe is decidedly steamy. It stars actor John Stamos (who starred in the TV sitcom Full House in the early '90s, around the same time he was named one of People magazine's most beautiful people).
In the ad, Stamos has a dab of yogurt kissed from his lip by a beautiful woman.
Now, sales of yogurt have grown steadily in recent years. And moms and kiddos are eating plenty of it. So who is Dannon trying to appeal to here?
Everyone, it turns out. With a huge audience on Sunday, spanning multiple generations, Dannon hopes to catch the attention of lots of folks.
But "the big opportunity for us is with 20- and 30-somethings," says Art D'Elia, vice president of marketing at Dannon.
Meanwhile, General Mills has already generated buzz for its ad slated to air Sunday, which features a bi-racial family.
Don't look for any talk about nutrition or taste in this ad. The pitch is for something bigger than just a bowl of cereal.
The aim is to promote family together time. General Mills has joined efforts with a non-profit, The Family Dinner Project, which is promoting the same message. The joint project is called the Family Breakfast Project.
"It's important for us to be more than ... a circular O, that's made of oats and doesn't have a lot of sugar," Doug Martin, marketing manager for Cheerios, told us.
When families sit around the breakfast table, it's the experience that he hopes folks will connect to the Cheerios brand.
Now, how to jazz up nuts?
The folks at Wonderful Pistachios are hoping that funnyman Stephen Colbert can help boost their brand.
Just don't expect Colbert to educate us on the fiber and protein content of nuts. Nope. This spot is likely to be much more playful.
So, if companies are increasingly pitching more healthful foods, why don't we hear much about, well healthfulness?
Advertising and marketing expert Bob McKinnon of Galewill Design says there's a risk of coming off as preachy, which isn't so effective.
Health is not as important a motivator when it comes to getting consumers to buy as "appealing to people at a direct, human level," McKinnon told us.
So, playing to people's emotions, to sex appeal, or to an ideal — such as a strong family bond — can all be powerful ways to connect with consumers, McKinnon says.
Now, of course, the Super Bowl ad line-up still includes lots of pitches for beer, chips and chocolate. For instance, M&Ms didn't miss the chance to capitalize on twerking, Miley Cyrus-style.
And a few new Dorito ads are scheduled to air.
This one elicited quite a reaction from my colleagues here. Lots of us at The Salt agreed: We were grossed out. For us, it didn't pass the taste test. But maybe an ick vibe makes it more memorable?
We asked McKinnon.
"There are a lot of young people and young guys who [will be] watching the Super Bowl who are probably going to find that hilarious."
There's been some encouraging news lately about changing eating habits in the United States. According to the USDA, Americans are consuming slightly fewer calories each day and eating a little more healthy stuff.
Some big food companies are on top of this trend as you may be able to tell. This Super Bowl Sunday you may notice that television ads for healthier fare, such as yogurt, nuts and whole grain cereal, are right up there with ads for chips and beer. Now in fairness, healthy food has always been advertised at the Super Bowl. It's Bud Light, Bud Light.
But this is going somewhere new. NPR's Allison Aubrey reports, the interesting thing is how these healthier products are being pitched.
ALLISON AUBREY, BYLINE: On Sunday, Cereal giant General Mills will be spending millions of dollars to advertise a low-salt, low-sugar O-shaped oat. Yup, Cheerios. They've been around for generations. But forget the Saturday cartoon era, to sell them today, it's a whole new ballgame.
AUBREY: So here's the scene. A little girl and her dad are counting Cheerios at the breakfast table.
AUBREY: Then, comes the fourth Cheerio...
AUBREY: What the ad is pitching is the value of family time, being together. There's no talk of nutrition or taste. The ad is trying to say, hey, connect our brand, Cheerios, with the experience of sharing breakfast together.
General Mills has even joined efforts with a nonprofit group that is promoting the same message.
AUBREY: Ad makers call this kind of campaign value-driven marketing. Companies are trying to build broader messages and emotional ties to their products. After all, no one wants to be told that Cheerios are good for you.
Here's marketing and advertising consultant Bob McKinnon.
BOB MCKINNON: So I think that companies have found that when they're talking about marketing health is that talking about the health aspect is not as important a motivation for buying something as appealing to us on a very sort of direct human level.
AUBREY: Using emotion - or in the case of Dannon yogurt, which has also snapped up Super Bowl air time using good-old sex appeal.
Again, the scene is a breakfast table. There's an attractive woman and a good-looking guy who's got a dab of yogurt on his lip. The camera moves in.
AUBREY: She leans in to kiss it off.
AUBREY: It's flirtatious, and it gets steamier.
AUBREY: Ad man Bob McKinnon chuckles at the play on words.
MCKINNON: Yeah. Well, who knew so many yogurt eaters watching the Super Bowl, right?
AUBREY: Or future yogurt eaters, more like it. Dannon says they hope to sell more millennials on their brand. McKinnon says we associate the Super Bowl with beer and soda and chip ads, but...
MCKINNON: There's a move in a different direction this year, where we'll be seeing as many yogurt ads as Coke ads. It's just really fascinating.
AUBREY: McKinnon says other companies are hoping to win consumers over to healthier products using star power. Take for instance nuts. Wonderful Pistachios are new to the Super Bowl. And the brand has turned to funny man Stephen Colbert to create a buzz on Sunday night.
AUBREY: No need to talk about the protein or fiber.
AUBREY: Wonderful Pistachios hopes Colbert will make their nuts cool.

A MUM in Twyford has started up her own charity making superhero-style capes for disadvantaged children around the world.
Claudia Beard, 34, from Bourne Fields, begun I Am Super Capes last year after catching the charity bug while raising money for people in the Philippines whose lives were devastated by typhoon Haiyan.
The village managed to donate a staggering 350 shelter boxes to the people of Cebu near the south.
Now Claudia makes and sends superhero capes to sick and underprivileged children throughout the world and, to promote the new cause, hosted a superhero-themed day (April 3) at her local primary school Twyford St. Mary's where her son, Broden, attends.
"It was a fantastic day," she said. "It wasn't just the traditional superheroes either; there was one child dressed as Captain Pants wearing little white briefs outside his trousers and another was wearing a wetsuit with a mask.
"There was an imaginative array of costumes and the children loved it. Even the teachers got dressed up and one of them was Mrs Incredible. It was just great for them to be involved as well."
"Every child deserves to be a superhero, no matter who they are, where they live, whatever they are going through," Claudia said. "Every child deserves the right to be a child, to have some time to be able to get away from the hardships and stress of the situation or environment they are in.
"That is why I Am Superhero capes was born. We want to send capes to these children to help light up their imaginations, to give them a moment of respite from what is around them."
Claudia, who lives with her husband, Warren and two other sons, Chase and Trent, was initially inspired after reading about a woman in Seattle in the USA who makes capes for children ill in hospital.
"I am not ashamed to admit I got very teary-eyed and inspired reading what she does and how it transforms these little fighters," she added. "So that is where I Am Super Capes was born. It's something to relight their imagination, something that is just for them, that is bright, captivating and as my 7-year-old says, something to give them the power to be children."

Editorial: Nursing home workers care — and we should, too
The American Health Care Association established National Nursing Home Week in 1967. For 50 years, the designation has provided a dedicated time frame to remind people — residents, of course, but especially their friends and families — just how much long-term facility staff and volunteers do for those in their care.
The week always starts on Mother's Day, which is appropriate given that the majority of nursing home residents are women. The radio of women to men is 7:1 or greater, depending on the source.
The aids, nurses and social workers caring for these people now tend to be women, too — and some of those providing direct, daily care don't earn all that much: The average certified nursing assistant makes $11.40, according to www.payscale.com. Look no further than the help wanted signs offering $12-14 at local fast food chains and you get an idea of the challenge that nursing home administrators face in trying to attract and keep good help.
Of course, women of the generation currently living in these facilities provided the majority of caregiving for their families. Sometimes they went from raising children to caring for aging grandparents and then parents. They did it out of love.
The people who make a career in long-term care do so out of love, too. They are among the most compassionate individuals you will ever meet. Their career is really a calling.
National Nursing Home Week provides an opportunity for each of us to to recognize the role that workers provide in caring for our loved ones. We would do well to honor them with a personal word of appreciation, a thank-you card and a little lobbying at the state and national levels for better pay.

Rihanna Gives Fans Sneak Peeks at Her 'You Da One' Video
Rihanna is getting closer and closer to premiering her video for 'You Da One' and the Bajan beauty is hoping to get fans as excited as she is for the new clip with a series of teasers. Last weekend, Rihanna tweeted a still from the 'You Da One' video, and now she has released behind-the-scenes footage from the London shoot.
In the first sneak peek that RiRi tweeted over the weekend, the songstress is pictured lying down as she breathes out a cloud of smoke. The backdrop is dark and the camera is positioned at the top of her head, making the smoke a strong element in the photo. Rihanna has certainly been seen smoking a lot these days — we hope it's part of her 'Talk That Talk' persona and not becoming a habit! However, she does looks fierce in the photo and we can just imagine her singing "you're da one that I dream about all day" while puffing away.
On Tuesday, Rihanna continued to tease her fans with 'You Da One' snippets courtesy of some behind-the-scenes footage. In the video, which can viewed on Rihanna's official Facebook page, Rihanna talks about the shooting the video in London, encountering some rain delays, and how she shot the video on one hour of sleep, saying, "I'm not going to remember this tomorrow!" Being a superstar ain't easy!
Throughout the video, fans are treated to quick shots of the gorgeous (and now blond) songstress in a variety of outfits, including one that is reminiscent of Alex DeLarge in Stanley Kubrick's film adaptation of 'A Clockwork Orange.' Rihanna shows off some swagger and she walks in beat with the song holding a cane and sporting some dark eyelashes, suspenders and a white bowler cap. In another shot, fans can catch a glimpse of the bottom grill that was outfitted for RiRi a while back. Check out some stills below!

Minnesota Vikings coach Leslie Frazier is in too deep now to turn his back on Christian Ponder.
|Check out the best photos from the Week 13 matchup between the Vikings and Packers.
Frazier has defended his quarterback all season, even as Ponder's struggles have become common. On Sunday, Ponder threw two killer interceptions deep in Green Bay Packers territory, the defining plays in a 23-14 loss that considerably dimmed Minnesota's playoff hopes.
Another brilliant performance by Adrian Peterson went to waste, as did a nice effort by the Vikings' defense, which kept Aaron Rodgers in check for most of the afternoon.
Frazier remained behind Ponder as his starter Monday, but the coach didn't slam the door on a change if the second-year pro continues to struggle.
"Up to this point, I've been felt it's best for our team that Christian remain our No. 1 quarterback, and I still feel that way," Frazier said, via ESPN Twin Cities.
Frazier said it never has reached a point where he believed he needed to pull Ponder from a game, and he insisted Ponder is "still a very confident quarterback." Frazier said the team still believes in its quarterback.
But there's no denying the cracks are showing. Ponder finished 12-of-25 passing for 119 yards, and he now has thrown for 160 yards or less in five of his last nine games. Accuracy is an issue as well, as Ponder has eclipsed the 55 percent completion percentage mark only once in his past six games. The loss of Percy Harvin plays a part in this, but Ponder hasn't been able to adapt.

After Sunday's loss, defensive tackle Kevin Williams approached Ponder at his locker and uttered words of encouragement. Other veterans did the same at the urging of teammates, according to Tom Pelissero.
It was a gesture meant to show support for Ponder. Now he needs to give teammates reason for their faith.

February 12, 2003LOS ANGELES — The Anderson School at UCLA ranks an impressive third in the world among business schools for research and publication productivity in the areas of information systems, information technology and operations research, according to OR/MS magazine.
A study published in the December 2002 issue of OR/MS magazine examined research output by professors at business schools and universities around the world in four key Institute for Operations Research and the Management Sciences (INFORMS) journals from 1990 through 2002:
- Management Science
- Information Systems Research
- Operations Research
- INFORMS Journal on Computing
Among universities, UCLA ranks 8th in research productivity in these flagship INFORMS publications, according to the OR/MS study. In this category, the study reviewed research among a variety of academic departments, including accounting, finance, math, industrial engineering, operations research, management science, information systems and information technology.
"We're very proud of our faculty's accomplishments in state of the art research," said Rakesh Sarin, Paine Professor of Management and senior associate dean and chair of the faculty at The Anderson School. "The boundless energy and creativity of our faculty makes The Anderson School a great place to work and creates an ideal environment for scholarly research."
According to OR/MS magazine, the bi-weekly publication for INFORMS members, the four publications were chosen for their representation of high quality scholarship in quantitative/technical research. These publications — with the exception of the INFORMS Journal on Computing — are used by BusinessWeek as part of their rankings of top business schools. In the BusinessWeek rankings, The Anderson School consistently fares among the top 10 in the "Intellectual Capital" category.
"The high ranking this survey confirms that our faculty is involved in high quality research that is having an impact on management science broadly defined. It is especially gratifying to note that faculty from all of our academic areas have published in these prestigious journals," said Prof. Sarin.

How to Use
Map 1: Finnish speaking population, 1920.
1. Locate Finland on a world map and then locate the states noted in Map 1 that have larger concentrations of the Finnish population. Note the latitudes of the locations. Why do you think Finnish immigrants to America did not choose to settle in the South?
2. Examine Map 1. Note the location of most Finnish speakers in 1920. Compare the numbers of Finns in Idaho with those in other parts of the nation. In which states are most of the Finnish Americans located?
3. Considering that the largest population of Finns settled in the eastern half of the United States, why did some Finns migrate to Idaho and other western states? (If needed, refer to Setting the Stage.)
4. The cities listed on Map 1 have the ten largest Finnish population concentrations except where the population of the city is less than 1,000. The population in the leading cities of settlement ranged from 1,000-10,000, except in New York City which ranged from 10,001-50,000. Why do you think New York City has the highest concentration of Finnish immigrants? What role did New York City play for America's immigrants?
5. The Finns of Idaho settled on homestead farmlands and in small towns. Examine a map of Idaho and locate Coeur d'Alene and Cabinet, and also the towns of Lake Fork, Cascade, McCall, and Donnelly. Note the elevation and the proximity of national forest lands on your map. What ways of life might the Finns have continued if they lived in a place like Idaho?
Map 1 was adapted from James P. Allen and Eugene J. Turner, We the People: An Atlas of America's Ethnic Diversity (New York: Macmillan, 1988).
* The map on this screen has a resolution of 72 dots per inch (dpi), and therefore will print poorly. You can obtain a high quality version of Map 1, but be aware that the file may take as much as 20 seconds to load with a 28.8K modem.

Tips to Stay Safe in Severe Weather
Tornadoes occur all over the world. The most severe Tornadoes seem to happen more often in the United States east of the Rockies in Spring and Summer months, but severe weather can happen anytime. So, here are some tips to keep you safe.
A tornado is a dangerous and violent rotating column of air dropping down from a thunderstorm to the ground. The most powerful tornadoes can reach wind speeds up to 250 miles per hour and cause great damage.
First, make sure your cell phone is charged, and you have downloaded radioPup. That is where you will be able to get all of the local information you will need if our area is struck by any catastrophic event.
When weather conditions make tornadoes possible, the Storm Prediction Center will issue a TORNADO WATCH. A "watch" means that a tornado could happen, and you should be aware of changing weather conditions.
A TORNADO WARNING is issued by the National Weather Service when a tornado is more than likely on the ground and doing damage. With a "warning" you should take action right away to protect yourself.
If a warning is issued and you are in a house or small building you should seek shelter in a small interior room on the lowest level. If you live in an apartment it's time to meet your neighbors ASAP and make a plan for severe weather. Wrap your self with blankets, clothes, towels, to protect yourself from debris, and flying objects. If you have a helmet of any type, put it on.
If you are in hospitals, schools, factories, or shopping centers, go to the lowest level and shelter in an interior room or in halls on the lowest floor. Do your best to stay away from rooms with lots of glass or areas with wide-span roofs like auditoriums, gyms, and warehouses.
If you are in a vehicle or mobile home, leave it, that is where most severe injuries and deaths come from during tornadoes. Abandon them and look for a more substantial structure for shelter. If a sturdy shelter is not available lay flat in a ditch or lowest level of ground you can find and cover your head with your hands and arms.
You should purchase a NOAA Weather Radio. (I have a little transistor weather radio, that I purchased at Radio Shack.) The National Weather Service recommends getting a radio that has a battery for back-up, and has an audible alarm feature that will alert you in the event of an emergency.
For sever thunderstorms the system works about the same...
A severe thunderstorm watch is issued when severe thunderstorms are possible.
A severe thunderstorm warning is issued when a thunderstorm producing winds of 58 miles per hour or more and/or produces hail the diameter 3/4" or more is happening.

April 10, 2013
MOBILE, Ala. (seminoles.com) – No. 23 South Alabama received strong pitching performances from Farish Beard and Hannah Campbell to shut out the 25th-ranked Florida State softball team, 4-0, on Wednesday evening at Jaguar Field.
The Seminoles (31-14), whom entered the game with an impressive .312 team batting average, were shut out for the first time since Feb. 24 against Nebraska. It was just the fourth time Florida State was shut out this season.
The Jaguars' (35-7) duo of Beard (16-0) and Campbell combined to pitch effectively in all frames. Beard pitched the minimum of four innings and allowed three hits while issuing two walks with six strikeouts. Campbell then entered the fifth inning and picked up the save after pitching the final three scoreless innings.
Beard continues to be perfect this season, sporting a 16-0 undefeated record.
The loss lowers Florida State's record to 21-12 in non-conference play this season. The Seminoles are now 3-2 all-time against South Alabama but have lost their last two games against the Jaguars.
Florida State finished 4-for-23 at the plate while South Alabama went 7-for-26 in what had the makings of a pitcher's duel early on. A three-run inning by the Jaguars in the third helped break the game open, and an insurance run in the fifth nearly put the game out of reach.
Sophomore Lacey Waldrop (16-7) allowed three runs on six hits with four strikeouts in four innings pitched. Monica Perry allowed one run in two innings pitched and struck out four in relief.
Three of Florida State's four hits went extra bases, as Maddie O'Brien, Morgan Bullock and Kirstin Austin each recorded doubles. Freshman Victoria East had the lone single.
The first runner in scoring position occurred in the bottom of the second inning as the Jaguars threatened to score. With one out, Kaitlyn Griffith was hit by a pitch and then stole second base. Meghan Collins pushed Griffith to third base on a groundout to second base, but South Alabama's Alex Breeden ended the inning on a soft groundout to FSU's Courtney Senas at third base.
Florida State threatened to score in the top of the third inning. With two outs, East recorded the first base hit of the game on a sharp single to third base. The base hit marked a 10-game hit streak for the freshman. With Senas up to bat, East stole second base but was not driven home as Senas lined out to left field to finish the frame.
South Alabama recorded three runs in the third inning. The big hit was provided by Blair Johnson as she produced a bloop double to left center that drove in two runs, making it 2-0. Two batters later Haley Fagan singled up to centerfield with two outs to plate another Jaguar runner and create a 3-0 advantage.
An opportunity was missed in the top of the fifth inning when Austin led off with a double to the left center gap. Three pitches into the next batter in Bailey Schinella, Beard left the game with what appeared to be a back issue and was replaced by Campbell. The reliever walked Schinella but wound up inducing three consecutive outs to end the threat by the Noles.
Perry relieved Waldrop to begin the top of the fifth. South Alabama's Julie Moss delivered a solo home run to lead off the inning, but Perry responded by recording consecutive strikeouts and a flyout to keep Florida State within reach at 4-0.
Perry would end up recording four strikeouts to her seven batters faced, with the home run being her lone blemish in relief.
Florida State looks to win its fifth consecutive ACC series as it hosts Virginia for a rare Sunday-Monday series. The doubleheader takes place at JoAnne Graf Field on Sunday at 1 p.m. and 3 p.m., and Monday evening's game will be televised on ESPNU at 7 p.m.
