WATERTOWN — A new principal in the Watertown City School District has resigned, Superintendent Larry C. Schmiegel said Friday.
Susan R. Nedza, who was appointed as principal of Ohio Elementary School on Dec. 18, will no longer be the top administrator of the elementary school. Schmiegel said Nedza did not provide a reasoning for the resignation.
Michael Lennox will be serving as the interim principal. Lennox has previously served as the principal of Starbuck Elementary and the district’s athletic director.

Rarely do teams from the same conference cross paths in bowl games. In the fairly recent past, such an occurrence has even caused a mini scandal.
However, 2024 is an unprecedented season in so many respects. College football leagues are so big that such a development is no longer verboten, and thus Big 12 foes Colorado and BYU will meet in the Alamo Bowl Saturday for the first time since the 1988 Freedom Bowl.
That's not to say the game won't be a compelling one, though—the Buffaloes and Cougars aren't that far apart (an eight-hour drive), and Colorado has two top-10 Heisman finishers in cornerback Travis Hunter and quarterback Shedeur Sanders.
As the anticipation builds, here's a look back at the Buffaloes' and BYU's respective postseason histories, with a spotlight on a few notable matchups.

A word to describe Colorado's postseason life would be "streaky." The Buffaloes were late to the Big Eight and its forerunners (they didn't join until 1948) and it took them some time to win. When they did, sustained success was difficult—Colorado went without a bowl win from 1971 to '90 despite several quality seasons.
But what a win the Buffaloes' '90 victory was—a thrilling, controversial 10–9 win over Notre Dame in the Orange Bowl that secured Colorado's share of the national championship (a Fighting Irish touchdown was negated by a clipping penalty in the final minute). The '90s were good to the Buffaloes, who won six straight bowl games from 1993 to '99.
Right now, Colorado is in the midst of a fallow period, having lost four consecutive postseason games. The Buffaloes' last bowl victory came in 2004, when they rallied past a strong UTEP team 33–28 in the Houston Bowl.

The Cougars' first bowl trip may have been to the Fiesta Bowl, but ask fans of a certain age and they'll tie BYU forever to one game: the Holiday Bowl.
A 20-year association between the WAC and the game enabled the Cougars to practically establish permanent residency in San Diego. BYU played classic after classic in the game: a thrilling loss to Indiana in 1979, a miracle comeback against SMU in 1980, a clutch victory over Missouri in 1983, and a 1984 win over Michigan that all but locked up the Cougars' only national championship. The program has played in the game 11 times—six more than any other team.
BYU has meandered bowl-wise since its exit from the WAC. The Cougars became a Las Vegas Bowl frequent flier in the 2000s, playing in that bowl game five straight years against a quintet of Pac-10 teams. BYU returned to the game in 2015, falling 35–28 to Utah in the era when the two rivals were in different conferences. The Cougars' last bowl win came in 2022, when they downed the Mustangs 24–23 in the New Mexico Bowl.
Here's how the two teams' bowl records compare.

Both programs have had to weather lengthy bowl losing streaks at various points, and will look to add a feather in their caps Saturday in which should be an entertaining affair.

Mila Kunis Says She ‘Fell In Love’ With Being Jewish After Meeting Ashton Kutcher  Yahoo News UK

TOLEDO, Ohio (WTVG) – The eight-day festival of lights continues as Toledo is marking 50 years of Chanukah in the public sphere.
Friday outside One Government Center in downtown, Chabad of Toledo held a menorah lighting.
The holiday recalls the victory of the militarily weak but spiritually strong Jewish people who defeated the Syrian Greeks. When they recaptured the temple, there was only one jar of oil. Enough to burn for one day but, it lasted for eight days.
“Each one of us in our hearts, we have a flame and our job is just like the holiday of Chanukah, is to use our little candle inside of us and illuminate the life of the people around us,” Rabbi Yossi Shemtove of the Chabad House said.
Chabad House has other activities planned as well. Chanukah on Ice is happening Sunday at the Ice Ribbon and Chanukh at the Mall will be held Monday at the Franklin Park Mall.

With Bitcoin eyeing $150,000, these 5 altcoins are gearing up for massive gains.
Table of Contents
As the end of year approaches, excitement builds in the cryptocurrency world. Bitcoin is setting its sights on a historic price level, and several lesser-known coins are showing signs of massive growth. This article analyzes 5 altcoins that could experience remarkable surges, capturing the attention of investors looking for the next big opportunity.
DOGEN, a rising meme coin on the Solana blockchain, is capturing attention with its impressive presale performance and growth potential. Inspired by the viral success of tokens like BONK, WIF, and Popcat, DOGEN combines meme culture appeal with Solana’s scalability to stand out in the booming altcoin market. 
Starting at $0.0003 in Stage 1, the token has already surged by 333% to $0.0013 in Stage 9. With the presale progressing toward Stage 13, the price is projected to hit $0.0019, delivering a potential 500% return for early adopters.
DOGEN’s multi-level referral program offers three tiers of rewards: 7% in USDT for direct referrals, 2% for second-tier, and 1% for third-tier purchases. Weekly distributions incentivize consistent community engagement. Additionally, DOGEN’s Golden Points system rewards investors with bonus airdrops based on the size of their investments, offering up to a 12% boost for purchases over $10,000.
DOGEN’s strong community focus, combined with its solid presale growth and future utility, positions it as a compelling option in the Solana ecosystem.
Interested investors can be part of DOGEN’s exciting future via presale.
Ethereum is a Proof-of-Stake blockchain known for smart contracts and a wide range of decentralized applications. It remains the second-largest cryptocurrency, with a market cap of $400.69 billion.
ETH is currently trading at $3,326.28, reflecting a decline of 2.65% over the past week and 6.68% in the past month. Over the past 24 hours, the ETH trading volume has surged by 27.15% to $25.23 billion, with a volume-to-market-cap ratio of 6.29%. Analysts suggest that while Ethereum remains 32.37% below its all-time high of $4,891.70, it has the potential to regain and surpass these levels in the near future.
TRON is a decentralized blockchain platform launched in 2017 by the Tron Foundation. The value TRX saw a notable surge in early December, hitting a record high of $0.4407 on December 4. However, TRX is currently trading at $0.2593 — a decline of almost 40% from its recent peak.
Even with the drop, Tron remains 29.79% higher than it was a month ago and has risen by 5.45% over the past week. Over the last 24 hours, the TRX price increased by 3.56%, becoming a top performer among the top 10 cryptocurrencies by market cap. 
Technical indicators suggest that TRX is finding stability with a promising outlook. Key support levels include the Major Oblique Support at $0.246 and the 50-day Simple Moving Average (SMA) at $0.23915, both of which could bolster a potential breakout. On the resistance side, the Bollinger Upper Band at $0.31 aligns with recent highs, and a breakout above this point could signal a strong bullish trend for Tron.
BNB, the native cryptocurrency of the Binance ecosystem, is currently trading at $692.63, reflecting an increase of 2.88% over the past week and 8.48% in the last 30 days. With a market cap of $99.74 billion, BNB has shown strong momentum, supported by a 56.86% surge in 24-hour trading volume to $1.91 billion.
On December 22, BNB fell beneath the 50-day SMA at $658 but the bears failed to push below the key support level at $635. The bulls are currently working to initiate a recovery rally, which is likely to encounter resistance near the 20-day EMA at $685. Should the price reverse from this level, the bears might make another attempt to drag BNB below the uptrend line, potentially triggering a decline toward $550.
Conversely, if the price surpasses the 20-day EMA, it would indicate that the pair might consolidate within the $635 to $722 range for a while. A breakout and close above $722 would signal that the bulls have regained control.
SOL is currently valued at $185.85, reflecting a decline of nearly 3% over the past 24 hours. The asset’s market cap and trading volume have also shown signs of a bearish trend. 
Despite the downward price movement, the Net Realized Profit/Loss metric for SOL indicates that investors maintain a strong bullish outlook. The 0.78 Fibonacci retracement level has acted as solid support for SOL. As the price approaches the 0.618 retracement level near $197, the support range between $181.75 and $179.66 becomes critical in shaping its next move.
If the recent boost in investor confidence and increased activity on the Solana network continues, SOL could aim for $254 as its first target. Additional medium-term targets projected by analysts include $302 and $345.
With Bitcoin aiming for new heights, established coins like ETH, TRX, BNB, and SOL may offer steady gains, but DOGEN stands out with its focus on luxury and success. By building a community of ambitious leaders and offering exclusive perks to early adopters, DOGEN presents significant potential in the altcoin season.

A Schaumburg man was arrested for fatally shooting his sister-in-law who he allegedly mistook for a intruder early Christmas Day, authorities said.
Daniel Garcia, 52, was charged with involuntary manslaughter of a family member, according to a probable cause affidavit.
>📺 24/7 Chicago news stream: Watch NBC 5 free wherever you are
The shooting was reported at around 7:15 a.m. on Wednesday in the 1800 block of Carlisle Court in Schaumburg. Court documents revealed Garcia called 911 and admitted to shooting his sister-in-law, Kellie Barnett, who he was said to have mistaken for an intruder.
Garcia’s wife, Barnett’s sister, reported she was woken up by a loud gunshot and ran over to her sister, who was lying in the hallway outside the couple’s bedroom door, the proffer stated. Garcia later told police he keeps a loaded Glock 9 mm handgun in a holster on the side of his bed and he forgot his sister-in-law was staying in the guest bedroom, court documents revealed.
Barnett, 50, of New Lenox, was found by first responders approximately 15 to 20 feet from Garcia’s side of the bed in he and his wife’s bedroom. She was transported to Ascension Saint Alexius Medical Center in Hoffman Estates and later pronounced dead, authorities said.
Police executed a warrant at the residence and recovered a Glock 9 mm semi-automatic handgun on Garcia’s side of the bed and one fired cartridge case underneath the pillow, authorities said. A bullet that had been fired was found just past the doorway in the hallway to the living room.
Garcia, who appeared at a pre-trial detention hearing on Friday, has a valid Firearm Owners Identification Card and concealed carry license.
