Winter has only just begun, and goodness gracious what a change it has brought to the state. Part of the state
experienced ice storms and snow, and others had tornadoes and historic ooding. The amount of moisture
available for the winter storm at the end of December was astonishing. Unfortunately that is something we
may see a few more mes over this winter. El Nio can lead to frequent storms with very high moisture
content in the southern plains. No two storms are the same, but this paern looks to repeat itself several
mes in the extended forecast.
As we looked forward, it is an excing me to think about the
future. The heavy rains we receive will help out with our wildresheading into the New Year. The winter months can be terrible for
res because the vegetaon is dormant as the north winds howl.
But, that wont be too big of an issue if this paern keeps it up.
The state is virtually drought free and a few locaons are coming
o of their weest year on record.
We get a lot of quesons this me of year about what this will
mean for our severe weather season. It is tough to say honestly.
The spring following a strong El Nio winter has at mes been
very violent. That is not always the case though. Spring is
sll months away and we have me to analyze plenty of data
between now and then. As of now, January looks cold, with a few
more winter storms. Of coursec severe weather can, and doeshappen all months out of the year. January is no excepon to that rule.
I hope you are having a fantasc New Year. Whether you are starng a new semester or just beginning new
resoluons, I wish the best of luck and Boomer Sooner!

Through sales of the magazine to dierent publishers and changes at the editorialhelm, Boyd Street has slowly evolved from a campus-centric magazine to a community-wide showcase of philanthropy, service to community and family-oriented events.The magazines current mission is to inform and entertain Norman area residents withinformaon about upcoming events anyone can aend and enjoy, opportunies to helpyour fellow Norman residents and how to give back to the city as a whole.

Normanite in the Spotlight
Dr. James C. Grith II, DDS has oered dental health services tothe Norman community for the past 32 years. This past August,however, Griths dream of designing and owning the buildinghousing his dental pracce nally became a reality.
At his pracces new locaon at 3924 West Tecumseh Road,Grith says the earth tones of the milk chocolate colored carpetand walls, complemented by blue textured accent walls thatmimic water, generate a calming, outdoor feel.
The moss green chairs and light oak wood, coupled with windows
that Grith ventures are six feet wide and seven feet tall, add tothe overall outdoor eect. Paents can even see the clouds andtake in a relaxing view of the park behind the oce while Grithworks on repairing or enhancing their teeth.
Grith also revamped his equipment at this new locaon withpaents comfort level in mind. Here, all of his equipment iseither handheld and movable between staons or locatedbehind the paent to create a more open and neat space.
I want people to feel unencumbered, Grith says. So if theyneed to get up for any reason, they want to sit up or they wantto get up and walk around the room, theres nothing in the way
that would prevent that from happening.
At this new locaon, Grith has also expanded his range ofservices to include dental implants, made possible with his new3D imaging machine. He also connues to provide periodontalcleanings and treatment, cosmec veneers and lumineers, rootcanals, restorave crowns and more.
We focus on funconal restoraons that work well, are painfree and look good, too, Grith says.
While some of these services may frighten paents inially, thecasual, light-hearted and paent-minded atmosphere of theoce may help dull their fears.
They have a voice in their care, Grith says. Thats one of thethings that Im really, really focused on, making sure that I ndout from the paent why theyre there and what I can do to helpthem.
The former city councilman has been advocang for thecommunity and providing dental care for so long that some ofhis rst paents now bring children of their own to the pracce.
Although Grith spent most of his life in Norman, it wasnt unlhe made a brief move to Anthony, Kan. that he developed thesense of community he puts into pracce in Norman.
Since Grith operates as a local business, he says he should puthis locally-made dollars back into the community to supportNorman in return.
This is why Grith says everything about his pracce is locallysourced, from the Norman-based subcontractors who helpedbring Griths vision of his new locaon into reality to the localbank his pracce uses.
The boom line is Im here to serve my paents, Grith says.Im here to serve my sta and my community.

The lure of Robbers Cave State Park is right
there in its name. The infamous outlaws
Jesse James and Belle Starr were rumored
to use the rugged clis and cave of the
hilly woodlands as a refuge from the law.
That same rugged landscape that drew
the bandits is now a favorite of rappellers,
equestrians and hikers.
In addion to the multude of outdoor
acvies available at Robbers Cave State
Park, October oers the annual Robbers
Cave Fall Fesval. Fesval goers can enjoy
arts and cra vendors, a wide variety of

Bacon Onion Jam*
1/2 cup chicken stock*
2 Tablespoons butter
2 1/2 cups whole milk1 teaspoon vanilla extract*
1 lb. fresh spinach, or your favorite mixed
greens, or a mixture of both
1/2 c. dried cranberries or dried cherries
1/2 c. coarsely chopped toasted pecans

pepper*
1 bottle Robert Rothschild Farm Mushroom
Marsala Sauce*
Optional: Italian parsley, fresh, chopped
DIRECTIONS: Cut pork into 1-inch thick rounds. Pound into 1/2-inch thick medallions.
Heat oil in a deep sided heavy skillet over medium heat. When the oil begins to shimmer,
but not smoke, add the pork in small batches making sure to not overcrowd the pan. Season
with salt and pepper. Cook 3-4 minutes or until pork begins to brown. Turn each medallion
over and continue to cook until golden brown on both sides. Remove pork to a serving dish
and cover with foil to keep warm until all of the pork is cooked. Drain any excess fat from
pan.
Turn flame off (if using a gas stove). Add the Bourbon to deglaze the pan stirring until all
brown bits are dissolved from the bottom of the pan. Turn flame back on and add the Maple

Add 1 flower and desired amount of syrup into glass of champagne...enjoy!
DIRECTIONS: Bring potatoes and cold water to cover to a boil in a large Dutch oven; boil
25 minutes or until tender. Drain; peel, and the use a Potato Ricer* to create creamy
potatoes. Add salt and pepper and Mushroom Marsala Sauce, beating until combined. Serve
immediately. Garnish, if desired.

Dr. James C. Grith II, DDS | 3924 W.
Tecumseh Rd., Norman, OK 73072, 364-
8550
Dr. James C. Grith II, DDS cauons
against vigorous brushing habits when itcomes to dental hygiene.
People who brush aggressivelywill
oen have receding gums and notches
in the side of their teeth because theyre
brushing too oen; theyre brushing too
aggressively, Grith said.
Instead, Grith recommends switching
from hard-bristle brushes to so
bristles. He says gentle, circular strokes
polish teeth and remove bacteria more
eecvely than aacking the mouth withabrasive, up-and-down strokes.
If theyre replacing their toothbrush
every two to three months because its
just worn out and looks like a bomb went
o in the middle of it, theyre brushing
too hard, Grith said.
Grith also encourages using toothpaste
before bed, but merely using a wet brush
earlier in the day. By relaxing your brushing
technique, you can wipe out plaque while
promong a healthier gum line.

When bloggers or self-help gurus deem the latest diet craze or at-home remedy a success, its easy to believe their
methods are founded in fact. Pinterest-worthy homemade remedies and internet tesmonials may seem legit, but itsbest to sck to science. When your health is on the line, doctors recommend trusng science over opinions. We turnedto local doctors to dispel common medical myths standing between you and your health.
Curbing Carbs
Kimberly Davis-Coniglio, MS, RD, CSSD,
LD | www.oklahomadiean.com, 326-
5403; [email protected]
When nutrion books and blogs
encourage low or no-carb diets, one factthey fail to menon is that, according
to registered diecian Kimberly Davis-
Coniglio, MS, RD, CSSD, LD, this type of
weight loss also leads to muscle mass loss.
Theres a ton of non-scienc, more
opinion-based science out there thats
not really that reliable, Davis-Coniglio
said.
She also says people can only lose
two pounds per week, at most. At the
beginning of a low-carb diet, the severalpounds that are shed quickly are nothing
more than water weight, not fat loss.
Rather than embracing diet crazes, Davis-
Coniglio recommends eang snacks and
meals no longer than four hours apart,
rather than overeang when hunger
pangs strike.
Those who need a lile extra movaon
to jumpstart healthier eang habits, or
help seng a realisc nutrion plan, may
also consider signing up for individualizednutrion coaching.
Giving Health a Shot
Megan McMahan Meier, MD | Oklahoma
Sports & Orthopedics Instute, 3400 WTecumseh Rd #101, Norman, OK 73072,360-6764
In recent years, many parents haveavoided what used to be consideredroune vaccinaons to protect theirchildren from their perceived risks. Ratherthan opng to forego shots altogether,Dr. Megan McMahan Meier, MD, advisessing down with primary care doctorslike herself to discuss alternave vaccineschedules, as well as vaccinaon risks andbenets.
In the midst of vaccinaon debates, manywho avoid vaccinaons do so out of fearthat vaccines like the Measles, Mumps
and Rubella shot cause ausm. Meierpoints out, however, that no one hasever been able to replicate the resultsof the original 1998 The Lancet arclethat caused these fears. Plus, the Englishdoctor who originated the myth, AndrewWakeeld, has been accused of falsifyingdata and consequently lost his medicallicense. The Lancet has also sinceretracted Wakeelds paper.
Meier also says that people avoid shotsout of fear that they can actually causethe virus they were designed to prevent.
She says side eects like fague, achesand pains that follow the u shot aresimply a sign of immune response.
Im not worried about me and my healthychild. Im worried about the kid withchemo across the street or the newbornbaby that hasnt mounted that immunity,Meier said. And thats the whole point, isworking toward that herd immunity.

As a writer, I have always loved the magic of sending a hand-
wrien, thought-out note on alluring staonery. Many of us
may oen overlook the impact of a handwrien note. There
are specic mes when the gesture is ancipated, and oddly
enough, there are instances where handwrien notes are not
exactly proper equee. Occasions, a Norman based business
located at 2001 W. Main St., and I seek to answer any note-
wring quesons or concerns you might have.
First things rst, before any actual pen or pencil is put to paper,
you need an inving and welcoming staonery. The staonery
you choose can speak volumes and should reect your personality
and character, yet be mature in nature and professionalism.
Therefore, it is crucial to properly evaluate the environment and
place where you will be sending your notes.
For example, if you are sending a thank you note to a potenal
employer, I using neutral colors, at, square cards and sleek
cutouts, perhaps even some monogram inials embossed
somewhere on the note. A great example is the simple and clean
Navy Bordered Card at Occasions retailing for $20. This card
conveys professionalism and stability, things all of us jobseekers
want.
On the other hand, common occasions of sending notes like thank
yous and get wells, the rules are much less severe. Occasions has
great opons. My rst choice is the Bee Engraved Notes retailing
for under $30. The front of the card has a small gold, intricate
bee on cream paper, and the envelope has a navy blue hue.
Another important thing to consider is the thickness of your
staonery. In professional sengs, thicker is beer. However,
thinner opons are adequate for less formal situaons.
Now that you have your perfect paper in hand, when should pick
up your pen? Proper equee would be any me you receive
a gi, accept a promoon or following an interview. Be sure to
send your note in a mely manner. It is also good to remember
to send handwrien notes to aendees aer a celebraon such
as a wedding shower or baby shower. Aer all, the goal here is
to show kindness to others and acknowledge the kindness you
received. However, note wring isnt necessary aer perhaps
receiving a sasfying grade in class, small gestures of everyday
kindness or when a friend pays for food or drinks. A simple,
voiced thank you might be more appropriate.
If you are in the market for note-wring supplies, Occasions has
a wealth of wonderful staonery and delicate utensils to write
with, available in store and online at www.occasionspaper.com.
Happy wring, all!

WintersMost Sought After Fashion Piece
If there is one thing we women havelearned from the admirable AudreyHepburn, it is that the classic winterturtleneck can be elegant, inmate anddaringly beauful on the female body.Audrey, the epitome of elegance, graceand femininity, taught women this lesson
long ago, as she paired her countlessturtlenecks with tailored pants and
jeans, clean loafers and hot red lips. Well,aer years in the closet the turtleneckis proudly re-introducing itself back intothe fashion world, and I, along with manyothers, could not be happier about it.
Secretly, I have loved turtlenecks andthe idea of how warm and cozy they canbe. However, fearing I would look dull,unaracve and masculine, I seldomwore one. This, however, is denitely not
the case this year.
According to top fashion magazines likeInStyle, turtlenecks are a hot staple itemfor winter 2016 that should withoutqueson be incorporated into yourcloset. One of my most adored designers,Victoria Beckham, introduced the classicturtleneck in her winter fashion show. Thestar of the show, a deep gray turtleneck,fell slightly over the hipbones while darkskinny jeans, black ankle boots and aneutral colored fur jacket completed the
look.
Many stores in Norman are joining in onthe trend, carrying turtlenecks in theirstores for purchase. Its no surprise thatAnque Garden, located on CampusCorner, has turtlenecks on their shelves.Their Bella Turtleneck Sweater isperfectly on-trend; light grey in color,loose in t and made with a chunky fabric.It surely meets your winter day needs!To complete the ouit, Anque Gardenhas several stylish ankle boot opons. I
personally love the Gray Leather Bootsand Marco Suede Booe best. However,if diving into the full-on turtleneck is notfor you, Anque Garden has more oponsthat are not as forceful as the classic. Forexample, their Long Flight Pull Over Grayby Free People is a wonderful starng
point. With a high neckline, loose t andbeauful color detail, I would recommendthis top to anyone, regardless if you lovethe turtleneck trend.
If you have made it this far, youve realizedhow in love I am with this daring, yetauthenc trend. I encourage you all to trythis classic piece- no maer your age, sizeor height.

Decorating a Home
TodayRecent home dcor trends have beenall over the place, constantly evolving inshort amounts of me. I have oen foundmyself pondering whether farmhouserusc, contemporary or industrial is thecurrent go-to style. With the help ofAnque Garden at 323 W. Boyd St., Tulips
at 570 Buchanan Ave. and Occasions at2001 W. Maine St., I have nally found theperfect balance of all three types of dcortrends to use not only in my house, but inmy closet and enre life as well.
Living in Oklahoma, there is likely a hintof farmhouse-rusc design in all of us.My favorite way to incorporate this typeof dcor into your home is to add slighttouches in each room. For example, add afew neutral-colored pillows to your living-room couch or seang area to create an
inving and warm feel. I especially love theSugarboo pillows, which all have uniqueprinted phrases on them. A BlackberryHarvest Table Runner from Occasionsoers a beauful and eortless hint ofSouthern style. Another simple way toincorporate rusc are is to look towardyour oor. Tulips has a Loloi Charloe AshGray Rug that adds delighul warm tonesand a lived-in feel. Tulips also has the mostadorable Oklahoma grass mat that bringspersonality, character and Southern stylebefore anyone ever steps into your home.
In order to balance your space,contemporary design elements polish andmodernize your style, a needed contrastto the laid back comfort oered by ruscpieces. Although modern dcor can bea bit uninving or harsh at mes, I lovethe colors trends used in the design.Golds, silvers, grays and metallics are allused in the contemporary world, addingbeauty alongside rusc backgroundssuch as brick, wood or concrete. AnqueGardens gold carved, round coee table
is an absolutely gorgeous nd. With a fewthick books of choice, topped with a vaseand owers sing beside a small coeetray like Occasions Giant Berlin Silver Trayand their Volcano candle, you can have aclean, yet alluring adornment that addssome much-needed sparkle to your space.
To easily add even more contemporarydesign, a mirror is always a great opon.Tulips Gold Metro Link Mirror not onlymakes a room appear bigger, but also actsas an eye-catching statement piece.
To merge yet another popular style, theindustrial style, I love Anque GardensMango Wood Pendant Light and OliverPendant. Both are foolproof ways to adda touch this type of design to a home. Infact, my husband and I recently purchaseda pendant light with anque bulbs and
hung it over our kitchen table, whichIm obsessing over. With lights such asthese, I recommend hanging them lowerthan usual. Since they are slightly smallerthan your typical chandelier, they will benoced more when hung closer to eyelevel.
Decorang is, and should be, consideredfun. You can use all of the hoest trendsin a careful, yet fun manner to make yourspace all your own. And, now you know
just where to nd some amazing pieces
right here in Norman.

I recently just returned from CES 2016 (Consumer Electronics Show) in LasVegas in early January and I waited till the 11th hour to write this article inhopes that I would come home and write this telling you that I saw the mostamazing groundbreaking, new technology that was going to truly changeyour life.
Well I didnt.
It wasnt like previous years when I came back and told everyone that askedyou wouldnt believe what I saw! Tis year it was just ok. While I was atthe show I just wasnt inspired. I roamed the Las Vegas Convention Centerand kept thinking that the next corner I would turn would be that one thingthat we could bring back to OU and Norman and I just couldnt find it. MyFitbit told me I walked over 35,000 steps and close to 15 miles in 2 full daysand I tried to look at and find everything, but no matter how hard you tryyou miss stuff and who knows maybe I did miss something, but you cant sayI didnt try!
What I did see was pretty much what I saw last year and just more of it. If
you are into drones, fitness wearables and virtual reality then you wouldhave been in heaven. rust me..there was cool stuff that I saw, but you canonly curve a V so much or hear a vendor say yeah this wont be ready forproduction for another 5-7 years.
Dont get me wrong. It was great to see some of the innovations out there.Te innovators are truly pushing the edges. I saw a car for the most part driveitself and heard about someone who figured out a way to wirelessly charge aniPhone. Its all coming, but not anytime soon.
When I got back to campus, we sat and talked about it even more and I thinkI can sum it up with two examples.
Te show was kinda like our awkward teenage years. We all were there andthe show was kinda like that. Just weird and goofy. Didnt really make headsor tails of it, but it was cool!
Secondly - Tose 3 things I mentioned earlier are here to stay wether you likeit or not. Its going to be individually and collectively a part of our lives foryears to come so you might want to start paying more attention to it and seewhat you can do to have it enhance your life or change it.
Now how a drone will change your life I dont knowbut my amazing wifeSuzanne bought me a Star Wars Millennium Falcon drone for Christmas andit took me back to being a kid and that kinda stuff folks we need to embraceand hold onto as long as we can

Our naon was founded upon the principles of equality. Yet weoen judge others and label them as worthy versus unworthy,acceptable versus unacceptable, and right versus wrong.Itis ironic and a bit sad that I oen nd myself judging otherswho judge, label, and discriminate. It is our human nature tosubconsciously categorize people...and thats okay. However,it is not okay when we place our categories of people in ahierarchy, because all people have equal human rights. We maynot agree with peoples choices and acons but we must learnto respect our dierences andfocus on our similaries. Wemust nd common ground andrise above our prejudices and
pracce love, acceptance andperhaps tolerance at mes.We must recognize that weare no beer or worse thanothers. Should we rememberthat each me we point onenger at someone, we areactually poinng three ngersback to ourselves?
It makes my heart sad whenI see vicms of prejudiceand discriminaon who feel
wounded, hurt, and frightened.The transference of negavejudgment from one humanto another creates distanceand disharmony, and does notfoster a peaceful humanity.We are all the same, in thatwe are all dierent. We needto embrace the diversity ofour brothers and sisters in our human family, and stop believingthat our dierences make us superior or inferior to one another.Mother Teresa said If you judge people, you have less me tolove them and Golda Meir shares You cannot shake hands witha clenched st.
However you choose to dene your creaon and creator, weall come from the same source. We are all connected in manyways physically, emoonally, spiritually, mentally, socially,and eternally. We all breathe the same air, are held on earthby gravity, we share our reality together and each of us wantsto be loved and respected. We are all part of our universe andin essence are all one. As Neil deGrasse Tyson said, We are allconnected to each other biologically, to the earth chemically,and to the rest of the world atomically.
We are not born with prejudice, as it is a learned trait fromour families, our neighbors, and members in our communies.
Prejudice is based upon fear and ignorance and is a threat to themorality and posive evoluon of our society. With our ulmateallegiance to our God and humanity, prejudice limits our questfor truth. The Bible states, Love one another not Love oneanother, except those who arent like you.
History is full of promise as African Americans are no longerslaves, Nave Americans can live where they want to, Jews are nolonger persecuted as before, Americans have religious freedom,
women are worthy to vote, andhomosexuals have increasedlegal rights. Despite advancededucaon, discriminaon
sll abounds. Those withmental illness, disabilies,addicons, obesity and thosewith dierent naonaliesand religions connue to benegavely labeled. For themost part, our new generaonof young adults inspires mewith their passionate belief inhuman rights. I nd that ouryoung people believe thatequal human rights is not aprivilege, but an inherent right.
They are raising the awarenessof the need for cooperaonand understanding and theyare fostering dialogues ofunity. Hand in hand theyare choosing to create anatmosphere of social trust andtransformaon.
In 2016, may we focus upon unity within our families, ourcommunity, and in our world and pledge ourselves to freeingpeople from discriminaon and inequality. May we be inclusivenot exclusive with our acceptance of all people for who they arenot for what they are. May we be thoughul and kind, as these
behaviors will be returned to us in our reciprocal universe. Maykindness be our guide, as it acts like a contagious posive virus.When kindness is given, it is received and then payed forwardnumerous mes. Loving kindness is one of the strongest virtuesand it Is the bond that holds our communies together. Researchhas proven that kind people are happier, live healthier andlonger lives and have more permanency and sasfacon in theirpersonal relaonships than mean people. In closing, I would liketo share the wisdom of R.N. Remen, When we know ourselvesto be connected to all others, acng compassionately is simplythe natural thing to do.

Norman Medical and Safety Experts Oer WinterWeather TipsAs Oklahomans prepare for a blast of wintery weather, local medical and
safety experts are oering their ps for staying safe when the temperature
drops.
Norman Regional Health System is home to three emergency departments
and also operates EMSSTAT, the ambulance provider for the cies of Moore
and Norman. When winter weather strikes, emergency personnel see avariety of injuries related to ice, snow and cold condions.
The most common thing we see is orthopedic injuries due to falls on the
ice, said Dr. Patrick Cody, emergency medicine physician. Dr. Cody is the
medical director for both EMSSTAT and the emergency medicine residency
program at Norman Regional Health System.
To avoid falling make sure to:
Avoid rushing or taking shortcuts where snow or ice removal is
incomplete
Select appropriate footwear such as at shoes with rubber soles
instead of leather-soled or high-heeled shoes
Use handrails where you can
Take small steps to keep your center of balance under you
Carbon Monoxide Dangers
We somemes see people exposed to carbon monoxide so we recommend
folks have their heaters professionally maintained to make sure they are ingood working order, Dr. Cody said.
Symptoms of carbon monoxide exposure include:
Headache
Nausea
Dizziness and other neurological symptoms
Clues to carbon monoxide exposure can be mulple members of a
household with similar symptoms or symptoms that resolve when you go
outside Dr. Cody said.
If you are concerned about carbon monoxide in your home, evacuate the
home and call your local re department, which can monitor the house for
the dangerous gas.
Safe Travel Tips
People are oen injured by driving in dangerous condions. If at all
possible, try and stay o the roads during hazardous weather, said Eddie
Sims, paramedic and manager of EMSSTAT.
When the temperature rst drops below freezing the roads may look wet
but elevated surfaces may have frozen and become very slick, Sims said.
If you must get out: slow down, and leave extra distance between your car
and the one in front of you.
Remember to allow for extra me and extra fuel if you need to drive
somewhere in bad road condions.
Since a hospital never closes its doors, employees at Norman Regional are
prepped on how to safely drive in condions such as ice and snow. Sta
members are encouraged to pack the following items in their car during
severe winter weather:
Blankets
Non-perishable, high-energy foods such as granola bars
Boled water
A brightly colored ag or cloth to e to a cars antenna as a distress
signalAlways remember if you get stranded it is sll safest to remain with your
vehicle unl you are rescued.
Extreme Cold
Prolonged exposure to the cold can cause frostbite and hypothermia.
Infants and the elderly are most suscepble to extreme cold, so please
check on elderly friends, relaves or neighbors who live alone.
The following ps can help keep you safe in extreme cold:
Wear layered clothing outdoors. Wear a hat to prevent rapid heat loss
from an uncovered head.
While indoors, try to keep at least one room heated to 70 F. This is
especially important for the elderly and small children.
Avoid fague and exhauson during cold weather. Overexeron such
as shoveling snow or pushing a car, can strain your heart.

Its been a while since the Lloyd NobleCenter was rocking like it did for the Big12 opener against Iowa State. Though theSooners trailed, seemingly, throughoutthe enre game, they were able to comeup with key stops and clutch baskets, en-route to an 87-83 win.
It seemed like we were ghng uphill formost of it, said head coach Lon Kruger.But, a lot of guys stepped up at the rightme and made big plays.
One of the guys who stepped up wasIsaiah Cousins. Aer a horrendous startin the rst half where he was held to nopoints, Cousins regrouped to pour in 15second half points, including several bigshots.
What he did was good for us. We neededthat, said Buddy Hield. He hit two bigme shots for us, they were threes, andalso got a big me steal.
OU certainly didnt play well in the rst
half. In fact, you could make the argumentthat Iowa State was the beer team thatnight. But, a huge reason why the Soonerswere able to will themselves to victoryin the nal minutes was because of thehome crowd.
It was fantasc. Our guys were talkingabout it in the locker room, aerwards,
By: Tyler McComas
about the energythey felt, saidKruger. It wasmaybe as loud asany arena Ive everheard. It can onlybe so loud, butours was right therewhen we took thelead.
Though the Soonersdid escape witha win, Iowa Statehad a golden
opportunity to takethe lead with just10 seconds to play.Point guard MonteMorris foundhimself wide openbehind the three-point line with ashot that could havetaken the lead. But,to OUs great fortune, it hit o the back
of the rim and secured the win for theSooners.
From our angle, it was right on line, saidKruger. It looked like it had a good chanceto go in, when it was in the air.
It was certainly a huge bullet that theSooners were able to dodge. If it had gone
in, OU would have been down a point withabout seven seconds to play. But, like theold saying goes, somemes, its beerto be lucky than good. As well as theSooners played late in the game, OU canprobably say they were lucky and good.
If this team is ulmately able to live upto their loy expectaons, we may bereminding ourselves of how big of a winthis was later in the conference season.

Gold Ball in Norman Norths Sightsby Tyler McComas
More offense, less turnovers for T-Wolvesby Tyler McComas
Before the season, Norman North looked like it had all the
makings to win a state championship. And, through the rst six
games of the season that certainly hasnt changed.
With 4-2 record, the T-Wolves sit at No. 4 in the rankings.
Trae Young and Marcus Dickenson have been the class of 6A
basketball, and Cameron Marn has provided a consistent threat
in the post, which is something theyve been lacking in the past
few seasons. With those three serving as the core, you may
not nd a more explosive oense in the state. North has been
extremely ecient at creang points in transion, even when
teams are doing everything they can to slow the tempo down.
The return of Quan Hogan will be a huge boost, as it gives the
T-Wolves another athlec perimeter player who can score. It
seems like North has an abundance of those, but the one thing
that might keep them from a gold ball is actually the thing this
team has signicantly improved. Defensively, the T-Wolves
have started to be a lot more acve, which in turn, has caused
even more points in transion. In fact, Dickenson is one of the
beer defenders youll see at the high school level. Theyll need
to connue that type of eort on defense as they prepare for
heavyweight bouts against the likes of Mustang, Edmond Santa Fe
and Edmond Memorial. Those three opponents will tell us if this
team truly has the capability to cut down the nets. Oensively, this
team has it all, but if they connue to improve on the defensive
end, the T-Wolves could be the favorite come March.
Sitting at a 5-2 record and heading into the Berth FrankTeague Invitational, the Timberwolves had a chance toenter the Christmas break with a ton of momentum. But,after dropping their rst two games to Dale and Plainviewbefore closing out the tournament with a win over Ada, thebreak possibly came at the right time for the T-Wolves.
Turnovers have been the main concern. North has beenhampered by the inability to take care of the ball. Though
they have created several of their own, nding a way to limitturnovers needs to be the focal point as they move forward.Head coach Rory Hamilton will nd out quickly how bigthe strides his team made over the break, as they returnto action on Jan. 5 against 15th-ranked Edmond Memorialbefore traveling to No. 10 Deer Creek on Jan. 12.
The T-Wolves still hold serve in the rankings at No. 12. Asexpected, Alexa Scott had a strong start to the rst half of theseason. Her play, along with the return of Kenna Sturgell,has provided the T-Wolves with offensive threats, both fromthe paint and perimeter. Lindsey Waters and Jaycie Evanshad their fair share of big moments through the rst nine
games. Consistent play from those two will go a long way inhelping North make a serious run come playoff time.
The potential for this team is certainly there, especially ifthey continue to make strides on offense. However, a roughschedule will await the T-Wolves. A senior night matchupagainst Edmond Santa Fe, currently ranked No. 5, willprovide an accurate gauge on just where they stand. Yes,the schedule wont be forgiving, but it could also serve as a
huge benet when they enter postseason play.

Happy 2016! If you are like most peopleyou have created several New Yearsresolutions, and at least one of theminvolves money. However, the oddsarent in your favor. Few resolutions arestill being pursued by May. However, Iwant you to make progress toward yourfinancial resolutions through December.Here are a few tips to help your succeed
Create concrete resolutions. Vaguegoals like, I want to save moremoney, never give you a sense ofaccomplishment because its hard to
PROSPERITY POINTSFOR FINANCIAL NEW YEARS RESOLUTIONS
tell when you have been successful. Instead, try to save a specificamount each month.
Create reasonable resolutions. If you are saving nothing rightnow, you probably wont be able to save $500 a month. Set yourgoal lower, and then, actually achieve it.
Break large resolutions into smaller pieces. If you have a majorgoal for the year, try to achieve 1/12 of it each month.
Resolve to take full advantage of any employer contributions toyour retirement account. If the employer matches your contribu-tions, try to maximize the match.
Resolve not to give up. Maybe in May, you realize you arentreaching your financial resolutions. Dont quit! Just start again inJune like its January 1st.
A New Year is a great time to review your financial life and create aplan for achieving your goals. A year from now, you will be glad youdid.

With another season of college footballbehind us, it comes me to reect onour past. Many will think of the best andworst moments of 2015, while others willgo back to glorious mes long ago, suchas the coaching career of the famousBenjamin Gilbert Bennie Owen.
Owen began playing football in the 1890s,when the forward pass was experimental
and the ying wedge mowed downopposing players before being banned.It was a tough posion for a short kidweighing all of 126 pounds. In his bookOklahoma Kicko, Harold Keith describedyoung Owen as a nubbin who hadboundless pluck and self-reliance. Hehad apprenced himself to a doctor asa teenager to study medicine, but Owengave it up when he heard of footballbeing played in Arkansas City, Kansas,near where his family farmed. Owenwas hooked on the game, especially the
Bennie OwenBy: Je Provine
tackle and the spinner moves to escapeit. Aer years of riding horseback on hismare, Beauty, into town to play, Owenheaded to the University of Kansas, wherehe would become senior quarterback ofthe undefeated 1899 team under coachFielding Yost.
Bennie Owen had nearly played againstOU that December, but the game was
canceled as Kansas disbanded its varsityteam and let Yosts contract expire.Although Owens me playing had beencut short, he was soon back on the eld,now as a coach himself. He began atWashburn University in Topeka, followedYost to Michigan and then seled atBethany College for two seasons. Therehe formed the Terrible Swedes teamknown for their strength, speed andclean gamesmanship. Enre gameswould pass without a penalty called onthem. Bethany was also known for its
vivacious supporters, who shouted chantsin Swedish so loud and confusing thateven the opposing band stopped open-mouthed to listen. When Bethany metOU in the last game of 1904, the TerribleSwedes trounced them 36 to 9.
When preparaons for the 1905 seasonbegan, OU was looking for a new coach.Professor Vernon Parrington, who had
served as the rst faculty football coach.He recommended that President Boydtry to hire Owen away from Bethany. Itwasnt much pay, just $900 for the year,but the promise of a growing programmade Owen readily accept. PisburgUniversity, which had a winning seasonbuilt from headhunng Owens Swedes,tried to get Owen as well. Sll, the spiritof a fronersman drove Owen to Norman,where he could build something great.
Although the stadium is ocially another name, many fans sll refer to the playing surface as Owen Field.

Owen started his new teams seasonstrong. The rst game was againstEdmonds Normal School, which wouldbecome the University of CentralOklahoma. OU won in a shut-out victory,28 to 0. The next game was against theHaskell Indian Naons team, so reveredthat they were dubbed the Powerhouseof the West for decades. Haskell took anearly lead, which only made Owens crewwork all the harder. Foul play becamerampant, and sights broke out regularlyin the second half. OUs Bill Cross won the
game, reportedly dragging a defenderwho held him by the ears all the way tothe end zone. Although the rest of theseason was mixed, Owen did deliver therst-ever victory over the Longhorns fromTexas, with at score of just 2 to 0.
Owens career connued strong at OUsBoyd Field, which was replaced by astadium named in Owens honor in 1923,
yet the university very nearly lost himin October of 1907. Owen went quailhunng in Chickasaw Naon, just a quick
jaunt out before aernoon pracce. Onthe return trip, one of the dogs jumpedout of the buggy, and Owen leaned over tocatch it. His gun discharged in the chaos,and shot hit him in the le arm just belowthe shoulder. Blood poured from the
wound, but his hunng companion JohnBarbour managed to save his life with atourniquet made from a handkerchief.The damage to his arm, however, meant it
had to be amputated. Owens response tohis mournful visitors was giving a grin andasking, What do you think of a dub whodshoot his own arm o? Some say that hisuse of a single arm led to the invenon ofthe three-point stance However, it wasmore likely the work of legendary coachPop Warner, but Owen would appreciatethe joke.
Even though Owens life was safe, hisposion later came into jeopardy. Duringthe tenure of President Brooks, the state
legislature balked at the idea of a one-armed coach geng a $3,500 salary. Theyvoted to re him, but as soon as Brooksreceived noce, he dashed up to thecapitol and fought for it to be rescinded.The polics happened so fast that Owendidnt nd out about his ring and rehiringunl a week later.
Owen connued his career at OU unlrering in 1926 aer 21 years of service tofootball, the longest of any Sooner footballcoach. He had taken a program that was
hundreds of dollars in debt and turned
it into a prized part of Norman culture.Even aer rerement, Owen wasnt done
with the University. He roused supportboth locally and naonally to makesomething useful out of the empty loton the oodplain east of the stadium.The resulng WPA project turned it intoa nine-hole golf course complete witha dammed pond as a water hazard andstone bridges. It was named Brandt Park,or, as many Normanites know it today, theDuck Pond.
Even though he has long since le the university, Parrington sll looks out over its halls through classic
university pictures.
It is dicult to determine how to venerate
Bennie Owen properly. Perhaps it isdone best at the College Football Hallof Fame, where Owen was inducted inthe inaugural class in 1951 alongside the
likes of Pop Warner and his own mentorFielding Yost. There the spirits of the pastand the fans of today congregate to thinkof what had been, although Owen himselfwould cheer us on to ponder what is yetto come.
Full of condence, the statue of Bennie Owen sll watches over the stadium and pracce eld.

With William Shakespeares 400th
death-day approaching, the Sam Noble
Museum, the College of Arts and Sciences
and the OU Libraries are buzzing a lile
louder than usual this January as they
prepare for a one-of-a-kind Shakespeare
exhibit. English Professor Dr. Kenneth
Hodges, who has been hosng wiy Q &
As on Twier and Reddit to answer any
odd quesons about the Bard, kindly
agreed to ll us in on this months special
exhibion: The First Folio! The Book thatGave Us Shakespeare.
From Jan. 4 through Jan. 30, an original
First Folio from the Folger Shakespeare
Library in Washington, D.C. is taking
up residence in the Sam Noblea
tremendous honor for the museum and
the university, according to Dr. Hodges.
In a gesture of generosity, the Sam Noble
Museum is inving visitors to come free of
charge to view the exhibit.
Apart from just being exceponally old,the First Folio oers a rare, me-turning
glimpse into Shakespeares world. Heres
how it came about: In 1623, seven years
aer Shakespeare died, two friends from
his acng company gathered up his plays
and printed them, for the rst me ever,
in one monumental folio volume. A folio,
in printers terminology, is a book where
the pages have only been folded over
once, making it twice as large as the more
common cuarto and much larger than the
pocket-sized octavoa book for hard-wood shelves and sing-room displays.
The Folios size was a sign of high regard
for Shakespeares work and a predicon
that his plays would weather the passage
of many years.
Today, eighteen of Shakespeares plays
survive only through the First Folio,
including favorites like Macbeth and
Twelh Night. The maze of clever
wordplay, sly allusion and overarching self-
awareness in his poetry has encouraged
By: Grant Schatzman
centuries of new interpretaons, all
angling at an answer to the queson,
what might Shakespeare have meant by
that? Every me Shakespeares works are
adapted into a new formwhether its
the newest Hamlet, the classic Lion King
or Shes the Man they become a deeper
part of our own culture.
We hear his words in our everyday
life, as we unconsciously quote him;
we understand polics through him,Dr. Hodges said. He lets us see not
just answersthose become dated or
discreditedbut quesons that people
and sociees must again and again try to
answer.
The First Folio on display will give viewers a
chance to step into at least one part of the
interpreve jungle behind Shakespeare.
The book will be open to Hamlets famous
soliloquy, which begins To be or not
to bebut theres a twist. Look at it
closely! Dr. Hodges said. The speechwe know is a hybrid between the second
quarto and the [First] Folio, so the Folio
wont be exactly what you remember.
