Video content captures the attention of audiences and increases user engagement, but it's an expensive asset to create and manage.

At Highwinds we've had a lot of fun and interesting conversations over the years with a wide range of game developers and gaming publishers. It's always exciting to watch a small company launch their first game and see them grow, and it's a thrill to watch an established company launch a new project and continue their business down new paths.

The body of a Middleton woman has been pulled from the Wolf River in the Keshena area in Menominee County.
According to a news release from the sheriff's department, just after 8 Sunday morning, the body of Lina Maria Vergara Castaneda, 20, was found. Deputies say she was rafting on Saturday, when she went into the water, and did not resurface. She was not wearing a life jacket at the time.
Authorities from several law enforcement agencies aided in the search for Castaneda. Due to extremely dangerous water conditions, the dive team continued their search Saturday night, but resumed it Sunday morning.

"Sightseeing" seems like such a passive word; Massachusetts sightseeing should really be called "sight-experiencing". How else would you describe retracing the steps of the colonists, soaring through the trees on a canopy tour, reliving the excitement of the Revolutionary War, quacking like a duck on an amphibious land vehicle, seeing Boston by Segway, cruising Buzzards Bay, or taking a spooky Dead of Night Ghost Tour? You can even munch your way through the Cape Cod Potato Chip factory tour, take the most delicious ride during a Bike Farm Table weekend, or treat yourself to the Beer & Chocolate tour of Boston. Hey, is there such a thing as sight-eating?

By BRADEN LAMMERS
Jeffersonville's Redevelopment Commission reviewed and approved updated plans for Big Four Station at its meeting Monday night.
The Estopinal Group offered a first peek at its plan to create a two-block park surrounding the foot of the Big Four pedestrian and bicycle bridge in July. Since the public saw the plans then, comments have been received offering the positives and negatives of the proposal.
"Of the 200 comments we received ... the reaction to even the early concepts were overwhelmingly positive," said Wayne Estopinal, president of the Estopinal Group, as he presented the revised plans.
One of the more outspoken groups that weighed in on the design plans was the Rose Hill Neighborhood Association, as the bridge's ramp will land the former railroad bridge being converted into a pedestrian path in that neighborhood. Many of the members critiqued the modern design of Big Four Station, saying it conflicted with the feel of the historic neighborhood in downtown Jeffersonville.
Some of those changes the neighborhood association presented were folded into the updated design.
"We did receive comments from the Rose Hill Neighborhood Association ... regarding some of their concerns about lighting," Estopinal said. "We have modified some of the lighting in a couple of locations."
Around perimeter of the park, the plans have switched to adopt the standard historic street lighting found throughout Jeffersonville.
However, many of the modern elements remained in the plan.
"If we had come in and done Victorian themes and shapes it would have been somewhat like creating a Victorian period at Disney," Estopinal said.
He offered that once completed, the park will look like it was constructed in the early 2000s, but will retain a timeless look. He added that the contemporary spiral ramp on Louisville side of the Ohio River dictated some of the design on Jeffersonville side and designers did not want to adopt two conflicting styles. While the look in Jeffersonville will fit the theme of the Louisville structure, not all of the design elements will be adopted. One thing that will not be the same is the lighting on each ramp.
Estopinal said the south-end lighting on the Kentucky side of the river can be modified to change color, but in part because there are residences directly across the street in Jeffersonville ramp, the Estopinal Group didn't want color-changing lights on the Jeffersonville ramp.
"I think to have this red and blue glow, and changing all night, we didn't particularly care for that," he said.
The lights — while mirroring the look of the lights on the Louisville side — will be a basic tower that directs light onto the ramp and is cheaper than Louisville's lights.
Other changes incorporated into the updated design included modifications to the multipurpose pavilion, where some of the walls were removed to create a more open space. Three lights towers also lead to the obelisk that has itself been modified into a light tower, with a glass-shard look, and it retains crossing elements that are reminiscent of former bridge trellises. Blue glass also raises about halfway up the tower, stopping at the cresting point of the 1937 flood, with white glass above the high water mark.
Leading to the large circular landing at the end of the ramp, with the obelisk set in the center, is a tiered fountain that mimics the Falls of the Ohio that then flows under a metal grate to a pool around the tower.
Features such as the planned playground and bathroom facility in the middle of the park remained the same.
"I think we're in a better place than the first time we presented it to you," Estopinal said.
The next step, and what was requested Monday, was for the Estopinal Group to complete plans for construction documents and construction administration documents. The full estimate for plans through construction is expected to total $363,000.
Despite some opposition to the design offered Monday, Mayor Mike Moore said he wanted to move forward.
"I think we're at the point that I'd like to put this product out and say this is Big Four Station," he said.
"I'm really of the opinion that you'll never please everybody," Estopinal added. "Given all the parties that have seen it, there seems to be a decent consensus.
He added the plans will still need to go through extensive review process at the state level.
The ramp is still anticipated to be completed in April and the goal for the Estopinal Group is to have the project detailed and bid at its completion date. It is estimated that it will take 14 month to complete Big Four Station.
The redevelopment commission unanimously agreed to move forward with the updated plan.
The redevelopment commission also entertained a request to purchase property adjacent to Duffy's Landing to extend the parking lot, add a handicap-accessible bathroom and create a greenspace along the Ohio River.
"I think the concept is to expand Duffy's Landing for more of a park setting [and] also to provide more access to the river," said City Attorney Les Merkley. "If the city doesn't acquire it, someone else could potentially acquire it."
He added that the property owner may put the property on the open market if the city does not wish to purchase it.
Moore requested two appraisals on the property in question, the average of which totaled $475,000. However, the property owner told the city he was willing to sell the land for $300,000.
Moore added that the landing will take on added significance with plans the city intends to implement that would renovate the waterfront and docks along Riverside Drive, but would also remove the boat launch near Spring Street.
"Duffy's Landing will be the only place in Jeffersonville to launch a boat," he said.
While the landing is not inside a Tax Increment Finance district, it is in between Jeffersonville's Inner City Road and Falls Landing TIFs. Merkley said because it is adjacent to both TIFs, and would have an impact on the districts, money could be dedicated out of the funds to purchase the property.
The redevelopment commission approved buying the property 4-0 — with Commission Member Jack Vissing abstaining because the landowner is a relative — contingent on money out of the Inner City Roads TIF be reimbursed by half when the bonds close on the River Falls TIF, which is expected to generate more than $10 million.
The redevelopment commission refused to pay additional inspection costs for the project to widen Hamburg Pike if Gohmann Asphalt and Construction Inc. goes beyond the project deadline. At the commission's September meeting, Gohmann Asphalt made a request for the city to pay additional inspection costs for the project.
The plan to widen the road from about 22 feet to about 38 feet between Dutch Lane and Charlestown-New Albany Pike started in December 2010 with a planned completion date slated of Nov. 9, 2012.
But at September's redevelopment commission meeting, Gohmann officials said the project had been delayed, largely due to complications in relocating utilities on the road. They asked for an extension of time, pushing the project's estimated completion date to July 2, 2013, and the additional inspection costs that would result.
The redevelopment commission voted not to allow for any additional inspection costs to be paid and for Gohmann Asphalt to pay all penalties associated with the delay in the project. The penalty-per-day of $2,000 is set to be imposed if they go beyond the Nov. 9 completion date.

Story by Matt Papuchis; photos by Sebastian Montes
It was a night where unsung heroes needed to step up.
Heading into Friday night's game, Quince Orchard was already playing without arguably its biggest offensive weapon, thanks to Tyrell Williams' injury in the season opener against Sherwood that has forced the Cougars' top running back to miss two straight starts.
But when Mikey Murtaugh went down on the team's opening drive, the Cougar faithful held its collective breath as fans watched their starting quarterback being carried off the field.
How would the county's most accomplished team over the last five years respond?
Both reserve running back Manuel Brown and back-up quarterback Tobin Pagley rushed for two touchdowns apiece and Pagley threw for one more as the host Cougars posted their second consecutive shutout, 34-0, over the previously unbeaten Paint Branch Panthers.
"I'm really proud of my kids," Quince Orchard coach Dave Mencarini said after the game. "We've had some key guys go down the last couple weeks and they've responded nicely."
Following Murtaugh's injury, Pagely came in and despite a shaky start -- a muffed hand-off resulting in a fumble on his first possession -- he managed the offense effectively all night.
On his second possession, Pagely connected with wide-out Matt Choi for an 11-yard touchdown pass. Later in the half, Pagely scored from 1-yard out on a quarterback keeper to give the Cougars a 14-0 lead at the half.
Afterwards, the junior quarterback reflected on the moment.
"At first I was a little nervous. But all my teammates rallied behind me and gave me the confidence to get the job done," Pagely said. "I will never forget this night for the rest of my life."
Meanwhile, due to another key injury on offense for the Cougars (running back Keano Wilder went down with what Mencarini described as 'turf toe') Brown was there to carry the load in the second half. Brown, who didn't carry the ball the entire first half, scored two touchdowns in the second half and pounded his way to 122 yards off 21 carries to help seal the Cougars' win.
"I needed to step up tonight and help my team," Brown said. "We all needed to step in tonight and take care of each other and that's what we did."
While it was Quince Orchard's offense that was the focus, in part due to the numerous injuries on that side of the ball, it was the Cougars' defense that made the real difference Friday night. Paint Branch only totaled one first down in the second half and never truly threatened to score all night. The Panthers only crossed into Cougar territory once after the first quarter.
Led by senior linebacker Marcus Newby, who had nine tackles in the win and a recovered fumble, Quince Orchard shut down the Panthers' two biggest threats all night -- quarterback Gaston Cooper, who only passed for 68 yards and receiver Thomas Lucas, who was limited to just 32 yards receiving.
"Paint Branch is a great team with great players," Newby said. "We just practiced and worked hard for this all week and came out ready to play."
Defensive Coordinator John Kelley added: "The kids had a great week of practice, focusing on what they've got to do. We've got a real solid nucleus of guys on defense who really want it and work hard."
For Paint Branch, it's not time to panic, head coach Mike Nesmith said after the game. Instead, it's time to reinforce with his players the importance of consistency and focusing on the details.
"We have to learn from this," said Nesmith, who served as the Cougars' offensive coordinator under Mencarini from 2004-2006. "We need to reinforce the details in practice this week. A dropped pass, a false start here and there in practice -- those things all add up. And so we have to focus on correcting those things in practice. You play how you practice."
As far as where the Cougars go from here with Murtaugh's injury, Mencarini wouldn't speculate what the team will do without him, but called the quarterback's injury "serious." For now, he is just concerned about ensuring Pagely is ready to take over the reigns if need be for good.
"Our goal when Mikey went down was to make Tobin feel as though he could do anything," Mencarini said.
Pagely finished 5-for-5 with 33 yards while D'Andre Johnson added to Brown's efforts with 81 yards on 11 carries.

LAWRENCE, Kan. — Toni Young had 15 points and 15 rebounds and Lindsey Keller added 14 points to lead No. 12 Oklahoma State to a 65-52 victory against Kansas on Saturday night.

McConnell sponsors amendment to stop ban on fishing near dams
by Bill Mardis
Commonwealth Journal
Washington, D.C. —
The U.S. Senate has passed a bill which contains an amendment by Senator Mitch McConnell that would stop the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers from restricting access to fishing and water activities near Wolf Creek and Barkley dams.
McConnell's amendment was included within the Water Re-sources Develop-ment Act (WRDA), which passed the Senate yesterday.
Danielle Smoot, district communica-tions coordinator for Congressman Hal Rogers, said Mc-Connell's amendment to WRDA will go to the U.S. House of Represen-tatives for consideration.
The Corps during the first week in May began to place buoys and signs that will restrict fishing and water activities 500 feet above and below Wolf Creek Dam and nine other Corps-operated dams on the Cumberland River and its tributaries.
Lee Roberts, public affairs specialist for the Corps, said there is no exact schedule for placing buoys and signs at individual dams. It could be late spring or summer before the restrictive areas are marked at all dams, he noted.
McConnell's amendment would stop the Corps from installing physical barriers that would block fishing access to the tailwaters of these dams; would limit the Corps' ability to designate "restricted areas" to times when operation conditions create hazardous waters, rather than 24 hours a day; and give states the right to enforce public access to these areas.
"Many Kentuckians are struggling in this economy and the last thing they need is the nanny state shutting down a critical local resource. Many in our state have depended on these waters for years and it's outrageous for the federal government to make such a decision with complete disregard for the people affected most directly by the policy," McConnell said.
He continued: "Blocking fishing access to the tailwaters of Lake Barkley and Wolf Creek will not only rob fishermen of a beloved pastime, it will also impair tourism in the area and negatively affect the Kentucky economy."
The Kentucky senator met last month with local elected officials, anglers and local residents at Lake Barkley to hear firsthand their concerns regarding the Corps' plan and was told that the proposal to install barricades and to block access to areas which are popular with anglers in Kentucky would have a major impact on the communities near the Barkley and
Wolf Creek Dams. McConnell said he took action because the Corps, without cooperation or explanation, continues its plan to block fishing access to the tailwaters of these dams.
During an informational meeting January 24 at The Center for Rural Development in Somerset, fishermen mingled among politicians and public officials, almost all expressing opposition to implementing no-access areas close to Wolf Creek Dam. Fishermen say the area near the dam is one of the top five fishing spots in Kentucky.
Lt. Col. James A. DeLapp, the Corps' Nashville District commander, said since 2009 there have been three fatalities, one serious injury and 10 near misses/rescues in hazardous waters downstream from Corps-operated dams. He said the Corps has paid hundreds of thousands of dollars in out-of-court settlements for these mishaps.
DeLapp emphasized the Corps is simply following regulations enacted during the 1990s; regulations the Nashville District up to now have not put in place.

UNR students now face higher rates on Stafford loans, until Congress acts
Listen to the story
38 percent of UNR student loans are subsidized Stafford loans. Until last week, they were able to take out loans at the rate of 3.4 percent, but Congress failed to reach an agreement by the first of July, and, as a result, students all over the country who now want to take out a Stafford loan have to pay double that rate, which is 6.8 percent.
Timothy Wolfe is the Director of Financial Aid and Scholarships at UNR.
"What that means over the lifetime of the loan is, if they take ten years to pay back the loan, it's about 40 extra dollars a month in their repayments."
Wolfe says about 750 students will get new loans this year. Congress' Joint Economic Committee estimates the average student in the U.S. will pay an extra 2,600 dollars. Wolfe says the most popular loan at UNR is the subsidized Stafford loan and at many schools the number of students who rely on that kind of loan is higher, usually around 50 percent.
Meanwhile, members of Nevada's congressional delegation are taking different stances on the issue. The Republican-led House passed a bill in late May that makes the interest rate variable for Stafford loans, which means for this coming year the rate would be less than 5 percent, but could go up in the future. Representative Mark Amodei has stood behind that proposal.
Senator Harry Reid, on the other hand, took the Floor today to criticize that plan:
"But if either the legislation passed by House Republicans or the plan proposed by Senate Republicans becomes law, then student loan rates would more than double over the next few year as interest rates go up."
Timothy Wolfe at UNR says he hasn't heard much from students yet, because the rates are brand new and the impact won't be felt for sometime. Students don't start paying off the loans until 6 months after they graduate.
"Probably four years from now, when they graduate, what's the rate on my loans? What's the repayment going to be on them?"
If Congress works out a solution, Wolfe says there's a possibility they could retroactively lower the rates for students who took out loans at the doubled rate.

WASHINGTON (AP) — The wife of Republican presidential nominee Mitt Romney said Wednesday that her love of horses helped her overcome her fear that multiple sclerosis would put her in a wheelchair.
Ann Romney was guest hosting ABC's "Good Morning America" when she spoke about her depression after receiving the diagnosis 14 years ago.
"I was very, very weak and very much worried about my life, thinking I was going to be in a wheelchair as well," she said. "Turned to horses, my life has been dramatically different. They gave me the energy, the passion to get out of bed when I was so sick that I didn't think I'd ever want to get out of bed."
Mrs. Romney is part-owner of a horse that competed this summer in the Olympic sport of dressage, the equine equivalent of ballet. She spoke about her love of horses while standing in New York's Times Square, petting Paralympic horse Lord Luger as rider Rebecca Hart discussed how equine therapy helped keep her out of a wheelchair.
Mrs. Romney also helped interview the competitors eliminated Tuesday night from "Dancing with the Stars" and prepared her family's Welsh cake recipe for her fellow hosts.
She was filling in for co-host Robin Roberts, who is recovering from a bone marrow transplant. ABC says it is in discussions with first lady Michelle Obama for a similar guest appearance.
In a separate interview broadcast Wednesday on Fox News Channel's "America's Newsroom," Mrs. Romney said she immediately knew as the first presidential debate began last week that her husband would win because of the energy he showed.
"I knew after the first question," she said in the taped interview. "I turned to my son after 50 minutes, and I gave him a nudge, and I said, 'It's 100 to zero right now.'"
Mrs. Romney sharply disputed accusations from Obama's campaign that her husband lied during the debate. "It's sort of like someone that's, you know, in the sandbox that like lost the game and they're just going to kick sand in someone's face and say, 'You liar,'" she said.
She said she hopes her husband's performance leads more women to support his campaign because so many of them approach her on the campaign trail to say how they are struggling in the current economy.
"These are real people out there. They're not numbers to Mitt and I anymore," she said. "And I hope that came across, that why Mitt's running, is to make the economic opportunities for people that are out there that are really, really desperate."

It's a rare occurrence to have all living presidents in one location (if you will, imagine the security concerns for a moment) but it happened yesterday at the opening of the George W. Bush Presidential Library and Museum in Dallas.
Check out this slideshow of images from yesterday's event, thanks to the Washington Post. The Bush Presidential Library, similar to all NARA Presidential Libraries, seeks to "[serve] as a resource for the study of the life and career of George W. Bush, while also promoting a better understanding of the Presidency, American history, and important issues of public policy."
Stay tuned! Every Friday we'll highlight an interesting item from presidential history.

ATLANTA -- When the opposition's starting quarterback gets hurt, it's only natural for the fan base to anticipate an advantage.
That's the situation Georgia Tech faces this week when it travels to Duke for the second game of the season. The Blue Devils lost starting quarterback Anthony Boone to a broken collarbone in the first half of their game with Memphis.
But when fans (or players) starting thinking about putting this one in the automatic win column, coach Paul Johnson warns them to slow down. In this case the replacement, Brandon Connette, brings plenty of experience to the table.
"The guy's been playing quarterback for three years," Johnson said. "It's not like they took a defensive tackle and put him back there."
Connette (6-2, 225) is more of a short-yardage specialist and part-time tight end. But he was good enough to be named second-team All-ACC as an all-purpose choice by Lindy's Sports in its preseason publication. Connette isn't totally healthy; he's coming back from left shoulder surgery in January.
Connette played well in last week's 28-14 win over Memphis. He completed 14 of 21 passes for 198 yards and a pair of fourth-quarter touchdowns, but was sacked three times. Connette ran 14 times for 31 yards.
In the season opener Connette completed 5 of 8 for 55 yards and two touchdowns and rushed five times for 22 yards and one touchdown in the opener against N.C. Central.
Last season Connette completed 5 of 13 passes for 38 yards and three touchdowns and rushed 41 times for 91 yards and eight touchdowns. He rushed one time against Georgia Tech, gaining 2 yards.
It's hardly the same as the situation faced by Maryland a year ago, when the Terps were down to their fifth-string quarterback, a player who had been a linebacker the previous week.
"I'm sure they're not going to change much," Johnson said.
And even though there's a change at quarterback, the Blue Devils have a familiar group of running backs. Jela Duncan, Juwan Thompson and Josh Snead were Duke's top rushers against Tech last year and the team's top three rushers. Duncan has rushed for 107 yards, Thompson for 97 and Snead for 78.
"They're experienced," Johnson said. "With what they do with the zone scheme, it puts them in space. Snead's a little bit different than Thompson, who's more of a power runner. That's something that we need to limit. We've got to limit them running the football and see if we can make them try to beat us throwing. But we do that every week, that's what we try to do."
Georgia Tech will get some players back for the second game. Suspended receivers Darren Waller and Travin Henry are both back and DeAndre Smelter, who was injured a week ago, is back in the rotation.
Offensive tackle Morgan Bailey returned to practice for the first time in six weeks and should play. Linebacker Tremayne McNair is also back at practice. Tech will be without A-back Deon Hill, who will miss the game with an undiagnosed illness.
"Our big challenge this week is to go up there and play like Georgia Tech can play and we've got to take care of the ball," Johnson said. "We'll find a little bit more about where we are this week. I think the competition level matches up."

The Republicans' Evangelical Problem
by Jonathan Singer, Fri Oct 06, 2006 at 08:43:32 AM EDT
Almost immediately after Mark Foley's resignation, Newsweek's Howard Fineman publicly speculated about the potential ramifications of the scandal, noting that it could have seriously negative effects not only on Republican turnout but also on the Republican turnout machine, which relies heavily on religious conservative activists as its foot soldiers. Judging by data from the latest Pew poll, Fineman appears to be correct in his assessment, as Alan Cooperman reports for The Washington Post.
Even a small shift in the loyalty of conservative Christian voters such as Sunde could spell trouble for the GOP this fall. In 2004, white evangelical or born-again Christians made up a quarter of the electorate, and 78 percent of them voted Republican, according to exit polls. But some pollsters believe that evangelical support for the GOP peaked two years ago and that what has been called the "God gap" in politics is shrinking.
A nationwide poll of 1,500 registered voters released yesterday by the nonpartisan Pew Research Center found that 57 percent of white evangelicals are inclined to vote for Republican congressional candidates in the midterm elections, a 21-point drop in support among this critical part of the GOP base.
Even before the Foley scandal, the portion of white evangelicals with a "favorable" impression of the Republican Party had fallen sharply this year, from 63 percent to 54 percent, according to Pew polls.
In the latest survey, taken in the last 10 days of September and the first four days of October, the percentage of evangelicals who think that Republicans govern "in a more honest and ethical way" than Democrats has plunged to 42 percent, from 55 percent at the start of the year.
As if this trend were not already bad enough for Republicans, the Mark Foley story does not appear to be going away any time soon. What's more, if we are to believe the statement of Foley's lawyer that his client will speak publicly following the culmination of his stay at an alcohol rehabilitation clinic, Foley's first public appearance since the scandal broke will occur during the last week of the campaign -- further reminding the GOP's religious base why it is unhappy with the party.
But this is not the only worrisome event pertaining to Evangelicals coming up for Republicans during the lead up to the election. The Wall Street Journal's Washington Wire, via Hotline On Call, notes that another former administration insider is set to publish a book calling into question the Bush administration's commitment to issues central to the agenda of many conservative Christians.
Late October Surprise?
Caught on the Wall Street Journal's Washington Wire:MORE FLAK: Former White House official David Kuo will publish a book this month slamming administration's commitment to "faith-based" programs. A person familiar with book's content says it will characterize centerpiece of Bush's compassionate conservatism as "big talk, little action."
How will The World, Christianity Today, Charisma, CBN, et. al. cover it?
While I have long believed that religious voters' role in reelecting George W. Bush in 2004 has been overstated -- according to exit polling, Bush's share of the vote of those who attend church at least weekly increased by only 1 point from 2000 to 2004 while his support among those attending church less than once a week increased by 3 to 4 points -- it would nevertheless be a major problem for Republican candidates if their base simply failed to show up on election day or if their core supporters opt not to volunteer for GOTV efforts. Without that manpower, can the GOP's much vaunted 72-hour program really work?

Wyandotte Roosevelt will finish off the regular season Friday night with a home game against archrival Southgate Anderson at 7 p.m.
A victory against the Titans (2-6) guarantees Roosevelt (7-1) a share of the Downriver League title, as the team enters week 9 tied with Woodhaven and Taylor Truman for first place. A win also improves Wyandotte's chances of hosting a first-round playoff game next week.
Wyandotte-Southgate Rivalry
Southgate's disappointing 2012 campaign, which has consisted of only two wins, has been a far cry from its success during the past few seasons. From 2008-11 the Titans consistently challenged the Bears for league and district titles, creating epic Downriver football battles that players and fans on both sides will not soon forget.
Last season Wyandotte lost 21-18 at Southgate in week 9, suffering its first league loss in two years. Two weeks later the squads met in the second round of the playoffs and the host Bears captured the district title with a 28-21 victory.
Despite Anderson's struggles this year, Roosevelt still has to deal with the rivalry factory, as both teams have traditionally played each other tough, even in seasons where the game appeared to be a mismatch.
Roosevelt head coach Ron Adams said he expects Southgate to play inspired football all night, as the Titans will want to end their season on a high note.
"Honestly I don't think the records matter at all because it is a rivalry game," Adams said. "There's no reason for this not to be a very, very good game on Friday night. It has meaning on both sides of the ball, when you look at Southgate and you look at us."
2012 Season Recap
Win or lose Friday night, Wyandotte will end the regular season with at least seven wins for the seventh consecutive year.
The Bears kicked off 2012 with a 28-14 victory at Melvindale. Quarterback Kevin Matejko threw two touchdown passes to help lead his team on opening night.
Roosevelt improved to 4-0 with lopsided wins against Taylor Kennedy, Trenton and Lincoln Park. The Bears outscored the trio by a combined 119-7 and receiver Devan Stewart caught six touchdown passes during the three-game stretch.
A week 5 battle of unbeaten teams at Taylor Truman ended with a 24-20 win for Wyandotte. Fullback and linebacker Damon Singleton helped lead the way with three touchdowns and a strong performance on defense.
The Bears couldn't duplicate the previous week's success and Woodhaven handed them a 64-36 defeat on the road. One bright spot for Roosevelt was that Matejko was able to throw for 358 yards and four touchdowns that night.
With an impressive rebound after the defeat a week before, Wyandotte dominated Gibraltar Carlson 35-7 at home. Stewart, and running back D'Aries Davis, each scored two touchdowns in the game.
Last week Wyandotte went on the road and beat Allen Park by a score of 27-8. Kicker Jacob Simpson made two field goals and hit all three of his extra point attempts.
Downriver League Title
A loss by both Woodhaven and Truman Friday night, and a win by Roosevelt, would give the Bears the league title outright, which would be their third straight. However, both the Cougars and Warriors are facing struggling opponents this week, so a Wyandotte victory is still likely to leave the squad with a shared title for 2012.
A win Friday increases the chances of a first-round playoff game being hosted by Wyandotte next week, as the Bears would finish the season with only one loss. Last year Roosevelt hosted Ypsilanti Lincoln in the first round.
The 2012 MHSAA playoff pairings will be announced Sunday on the Selection Sunday Show, which will air on FOX Sports Detroit at 6 p.m.

Of all ages! I've gained a lot of experience with what products work best and what are the must-haves in your 30's, 40's, 50's and 60's. Lets start with the 30's
Make Up Bag Must-Haves in your 30's:
First of all, a must-have is edgier eye make up. You're 30, you're not old by any stretch! As long as its done right, rocking a smokey eye is a definite must! Adding a sultry smokey tone around ANY eye color brings lots of attention to the eye (not the eye make up). It also can create a more openness and lift to the eye. It's super hot partnered with a youthful nude lip. Next must-have... eyeshadow primer! This is really for any age but especially in your 30's. Many women in their 30's experience issues with oily eyelids which causes your eye make up to crease. A primer will keep it crease-free and will give you the truest color to your eye make as well as give you all day wear! My final must-have is a great hydrating lipgloss! All lip glosses are not created equal. Make sure it's packed with Vitamin E so it's good for your lips.
Make Up Bag Must-Haves in your 40's:
First must-have in your 40's... Tinted brow gel! During your 40's a couple of things happen to your brows. Annoying white/gray hairs start to randomly show up and the brow area starts to droop a bit. Brow gel is a major game-changer if you're 40+! Not only does it cover the gray, it lifts the brow and in return gives the face an overall lift! Next on the must-have list is a contour powder. As we "mature", gravity starts to take a bit of a toll. With that come loss of facial contour. By strategically adding shadow (contour) where you need it, it literally lifts and sculpts the face. Talk about a game-changer. Final 40's barely there foundation or tinted moisturizer. The trick here is to look as if you're not wearing any foundation. A great rule to remember is that it should even your skin, not cover it!
Make Up Bag Must-Haves in your 50's
The key word as one reaches their 50's is HYDRATION!!! With that said, the first must-have in your 50's is a moisturizing foundation. The skin naturally loses moisture as we age. When you reach a certain age, you need a foundation that will extend the moisture in the skin. The more hydrated the skin looks the younger the skin looks! Also, a hydrating foundation will make the skin look more radiant. Next on the list, matte eyeshadow! 50's is generally when most women start dealing with wrinkly eyelids. Shimmery eyeshadows bring attention to the issue where as a matte shadow will "blur" the imperfection. Using matte shades will make the eye look more youthful. Finally, a bright cheek color is essential for looking fab at 50! Losing color and tone to the face is also part of the "maturing" process. The face starts to look colorless and sallow. A bright cheek color will do the trick. This is probably the quickest, easiest way to look younger!
Make Up Bag Must-Haves in your 60's
The overall rule for ladies in their 60's is to keep it SHEER! First of all, your 60's must-have is a very sheer concealer. My recommendation is Touché Éclat by YSL. This a beauty best-seller for a reason. It literally erases age. In the beauty business, we call it "8 hours of sleep in a wand". It's perfect for aging skin because it won't settle in lines and wrinkles. It color corrects and brightens as opposed to covering the skin! In one word, it's brilliant! Next, a hydrating lipstick. This will not only hydrate the lips but it also adds a sheen to the lips and keeps them looking super youthful. Last on the list, a bright shade of cream blush. This will brighten the face and also look more natural because of its creamy texture. Cream blush will create more radiance as well.
Life Trend:
This month's life trend is all about inner beauty. As much fun as it is to play in make up and beautify the outside, it's more important to beautify the inside. I believe inner beauty is the direct result of loving yourself and others with an unconditional love! When we feel good about ourselves, we treat others better. It is through this process of unconditional love that we learn to let our inner light shine.

This holiday season, many of us are thinking about ways to help out the community's needy and ways to give back to friends and family with the perfect gift.
Thursday, you can do both at the same time by shopping at Bethesda Row's Ten Thousand Villages. The shop will donate 15 percent of all purchases made from 5 to 9 p.m. Dec. 6 to Bethesda Cares, a local advocacy group that works to help and house the community's homeless.
The group offers services to those living on the street in Montgomery County and Washington, DC. It also helps needy residents with eviction prevention and works towards permanent housing for the homeless, many of which have been living on Bethesda's streets for years.
The group recently helped house a 72-year-old veteran who had been living on the streets for decades.
a chain that sells fair-trade, global crafts, is located at 4959 Elm St. in downtown Bethesda.

Gov. Jay Inslee is laying out his supplemental budget request today at 11 a.m., calling for roughly $200 million in new spending - much of it to cover increased costs for ongoing programs. The budget does not call for tax increases or closure of tax exemptions, but it does extend a research and development tax break for high-tech industry that expires in 2015.
A full budget highlight's document is here. Links to other budget details are here.
New spending is scattered through the budget, including money for an expected 10,000 more students in K-12 schools. But the budget does not include cost of living pay adjustments sought by the Washington Education Association for teachers.

Tobacco commission OKs workforce training grants
- Last Updated on 07:46 AM 09/30/13
- BY Special to the Gazette
The Tobacco Indemnification and Community Revitalization Commission (TIC) on Thursday awarded the Southern Virginia Higher Education Center (SVHEC) two grants to strengthen southern Virginia's workforce.
A grant in the amount of $163,750 will fund an Advanced Manufacturing Bootcamp initiative, and a second grant in the amount of $20,886 will fund the initial cohort of participants in the SVHEC's new welding lab.
"We are most grateful to the tobacco commission for approving these grants. These resources allow us to continue responding to the immediate workforce needs being articulated by regional employers while laying foundational career pathways to prepare our advanced manufacturing workforce," said SVHEC Executive Director Dr. Betty Adams.
The Advanced Manufacturing Bootcamp will use the SVHEC-developed Work Ready Foundations (WRF) curriculum and Virginia Manufacturers Association's (VMA) Manufacturing Technician Program to prepare participants for success in entry-level advanced manufacturing positions.
Through a combination of lab exercises, demonstrations and small-group instruction, participants obtain the skills needed for success in almost all manufacturing entry-level positions and a foundation for more advanced skill building. Successful program completers will earn a set of stackable, nationally recognized credentials including the National Career Readiness Certificate, OSHA 10, Lean Principles, Standard Work, and CPR and First Aid.
Tobacco commission grant funds will allow a cohort of 15-20 WRF participants to be established in the South Central WIB district, and another cohort to be established in the West Piedmont WIB district.
"Receiving funding for the Advanced Manufacturing Bootcamp provides another layer of support for the work we're doing to create a pool of work-ready applicants for Southern Virginia," said Dr. Nettie Simon-Owens, SVHEC director of workforce services. "Working with the Halifax County Chamber of Commerce's Senior Executive Roundtable, we developed the Work Ready Foundations curriculum to focus on providing participants with the skills they need and the certifications employers want. We're grateful the tobacco commission sees the value in Work Ready Foundations and has provided the resources to allow us to expand this initiative throughout the region," she said.
Because of TIC grant funds, 80 individuals will have an opportunity to complete the Advanced Manufacturing Bootcamp, helping to advance Southern Virginia's workforce by creating a pool of applicants with the knowledge, skills and abilities employers need.
Multiple training providers will deliver the Work Ready Foundations curriculum, and pre- and post-assessments will ensure student learning outcomes are met. Participants who achieve advanced scores on the pre-assessment will have an opportunity to sit for VMA's advanced Manufacturing Technician Level 1 Certification. Individuals without advanced scores will be able to sit for VMA's Manufacturing Specialist Certification. Both credentials are industry-wide technical skills certifications that "stack" upon the National Career Readiness Certificate.
"The SVHEC team is doing remarkable work by bringing together innovative industry-recognized, competency-based and stackable middle skills credentials, like the Manufacturing Skills Institute's Manufacturing Technician 1 and Manufacturing Specialist (MT1/MS) certifications as well as the National Career Readiness Certificate (NCRC) and NCCER Welding credentials, to build a world-class manufacturing workforce," said Brett Vassey, president and CEO of Virginia Manufacturers Association. "Over 85 percent of this region's manufacturing jobs require middle skills, and we are excited that the 12 critical skills learned through the MT1/MS certifications will be built upon the NCRC to ensure career readiness and industry readiness for 80 Virginians," he continued.
In addition to the grant for the Advanced Manufacturing Bootcamp, the tobacco commission also awarded the SVHEC $20,886 to fund the first cohort of students in the SVHEC's new welding lab.
This past May, the tobacco commission's Southside Economic Development Committee awarded the SVHEC $154,114 to fund the build-out of a welding lab in the SVHEC-Innovation Center. The build-out is expected to be complete summer 2014, with the first group of students beginning classes fall 2014.
The welding program, offered by Virginia Technical Institute (VTI) in Altavista, is accredited by the National Center for Construction Education and Research (NCCER).
Students completing the program will be eligible for NCCER certifications that will provide a portable, industry recognized credential.
"According to our employers, welding is one of the major skills gaps in Halifax County. Because of the tobacco commission's support, we will be able to establish an industry-certified program that will provide a pipeline of skilled workers to meet employers' current needs and will attract new industry to the county and region" Adams said.

Ada —
The Ada Cougar troops will head out for Durant Friday for a 7:30 p.m. appointment for the (loosely figured) 34th time over the series totally dominated by Ada, 56-11-2.
The Cougars will roll into Southeastern State University with a 1-1 record: a 36-21 loss to Ardmore and a 42-6 win over Idabel.
Durant matches that mark but with interesting outcomes — a 43-42 loss to Poteau in double overtime and a somewhat surprising win over Ardmore, 9-7. Ardmore was hampered by an ankle injury that soph QB Clay Atwood suffered against Ada.
Durant fans savor each victory over Ada, be they ever so few. Durant considers the game a rivalry. Ada, not so much.
Over the years since the first meeting in 1917, which Ada won 20-0, the Cougar dominance has been substantial.
It includes a 32-in-a-row streak stretching after a 0-0 deadlock in 1936 to a loss in 1980. During that span, three Ada coaches were all-victorious over Durant — Elvan George (19-0), Craig McBroom (9-0) and Dickie Stephenson (2-0).
Durant's 11 wins were bunched up with four in the '30s, five in the '80s and single wins in 1996 and 2007.
Up for discussion here out of those losses are the three classics "played" at Ada's home stadium, Norris Field, starting in 1983.
'83, Norris home field for Lions
Letter jackets blocking the December cold, then-juniors T.D. Teel, Jay Johnson and some of their mates off the 1983 squad entered the gates at Norris Field, the home of the Ada Cougars. But not today.
The maroon of Ada was nowhere to be seen other than the letter jackets. It was replaced by the red and blue of Durant and the purple of the Pirates of Bristow. They were gathered to play for the state Class 3A championship.
Durant was to win the state, 14-0, that day, but the aforementioned Cougars were not around to see it. A couple of series was all they could handle.
"Sickening," was the emotion Teel recalled. "We should have been down there on the field, not them. Especially on our field. And not Durant."
The Cougars had two chances to derail the Lions. In regular-season play at Norris Field, in the third game Ada fully expected to top the Lions — they always did. Ada was 0-2, yet at least in the back of their minds, a win over Durant was expected. After all, it was not that long since the 32-game win streak had ended.
"I suspect that had something to do with it. Hey, we were 16-year-old kids, what did we know about it? And we were playing bigger schools, and that accounted in part for our early record (1-6)," recalled local insurance man Jay Horne, a lineman on that Ada team.
Durant prevailed, 14-3, in a hard-scrabble, evenly fought game.
A Lion who played that year, Brian Wood, looked back on the Durant championship season.
Legendary coach Gib Dolezal had taken the reins the year before. Several seniors left the team, turning the jobs over to juniors and sophs. The result was a pounding in 1982 but a battle-hardened bunch with high hopes for 1983, said Wood, a 5-8 by 200-pound "slowish" fullback who started all three years.
"We were excited, confident going into the season," Wood recalled.
Ada scrambled to a 6-6 season and made the playoffs. Three rounds into the playoffs, the opponent was none other than Durant at none other than Norris Field.
Again the Cougars fought mightily, but it was just Durant's year, 14-7.
To Horne's memory, the big play was a student-body right sweep with Horne, Keith Nail, Roger Laxton and Jimmy Carter leading running back Scottie Worrell.
"We told Scottie that if he would start right, then cut back left around the other end, he would get good yardage," Horne said.
Seventy-plus yards, to be pretty close. QB Johnson then scored on a sneak.
"When we came off the field, Coach McBroom (Coach Larry) was livid, something to the effect that he would call the plays ... that he had more football knowledge in his pinkie ..." Horne recalled.
Too little, but closer.
So, the Cougars had seen the last of the Lions on their home field.
"Sickening," Johnson echoed old mate Teel's comment of watching two other teams on Norris Field that December day. "We thought it should be us down there. We had come back from a really bad start," said Johnson, whose son Christian was a receiver for the Cougars 2008-10, while Teel's son Cason is a senior linebacker.
Horne, like several Cougars, did not attend the state game.
"I guess I was still mad," he said. "In retrospect, they were pretty good, especially up front, real good. They had several D-1 players. The QB played college and I think semi-pro. But I am still mad."
Horne noted that the following summer, he went to FCA Huddle and one of the leaders was none other than Gib Dolezal.
"He said he was glad we didn't run that cutback play anymore," Horne said.
So that was it for the invasion of Norris Field by foreign powers. Not so much.
The following year, it was déja vu all over again, as the Yogi would say. This time, with old foe Clinton as the invader.
A mirror image for the Cougars. Regular season and playoff losses to Clinton at Norris Field were followed by a Clinton win, 34-13, over Idabel.

Charges against Chris Brown stemming from a hit-and-run crash that took place in May have been dismissed. A judge dropped the charges yesterday, The Associated Press reports, after noting that the singer had reached a civil compromise with the other driver involved.
Chris Brown Previews New Album 'X': 'The Negativity Is in the Past'
Brown was vocal on Twitter about the charges alleging that he failed to provide proof of insurance, and he pleaded not guilty to the charges. His lawyer said that he mistakenly gave the woman the wrong insurance, but that the $800 in damages was covered.
In addition to the charges, Brown's probation for assaulting ex-girlfriend Rihanna was revoked during the court proceedings following the hit-and-run. The singer spent less than an hour in jail after turning himself in to be charged in the crash.
Brown, who suffered a seizure over the weekend, recently announced that his upcoming album, X, could be his last.

The Alexandria Planning and Zoning Commission will vote Tuesday night on whether to approve the acquisition of open space on Polk Avenue as part of the BRAC negotiations.
The commission will meet Tuesday night at Alexandria City Hall. Local residents will be able to make comments before the commission. The meeting begins at 7:30 p.m.
In October, the Beauregard Rezoning Advisory Group unanimously chose the 2.4-acre, heavily wooded site at the intersection of Polk Avenue and North Pelham Street to preserve as open space. The Department of Defense has given the city $1.5 million in compensation to establish an open space in the Beauregard corridor as part of the BRAC negotiations.
The advisory group gave the Polk Avenue location the highest rating in an earlier survey. Alexandria City Council must approve the final site location.
The commission will also consider a request for a development special use permit to construct a new Chapel of the Ages at Virginia Theological Seminary, 3737 Seminary Road. In October 2010, the 129-year-old Immanuel Chapel burned in a fire. No one was injured.
The seminary, founded in 1823, is the largest of the 11 accredited seminaries of the Episcopal Church. Former president Gerald Ford, once an Alexandria resident, attended services at the chapel and Immanuel Church-on-the-Hill, 3606 Seminary Road.
