Here's the ultimate with Colm Wilkinson v. Philip Quast:
I also enjoyed the 25th anniversary version:
^^ Colm vs. Philip will go down as quite possibly the most epic rendition of the Confrontation ever. It is just incredible; everything else has always paled in comparison to me.
I actually prefered the 25th Anniversary rendition....though both are spectacular. I think I like Boe's voice best. Just a personal preference. Wow! I think whatever Jackman might slightly lack in vocal he will more than make up in presence. Valjean is supposed to be a super-strong man, is he not? Jackman is just a large guy to begin with, and then you add his imposing presence....
I can't wait! And I doubt Crow will be much in the voice line (doesn't he have a rock band?) but his presence will also be "bringing it." He can do menacing! Acting and character development count for a lot.
I think Philip Quast was the quintessential Javert. As amazing as the Wilkonson/Quast duo was, I would guess that a Boe/Quast would be mind blowing!
I agree that Crowe has the physical presence to play Javert, but Javert has a hugely important singing role. I'm not sure Crowe is up to that.
Oh wow!! Love what I see in that trailer.
Now that the Trailer's out, it's now real the movie's really happening if that makes any sense. Between this and The Hobbit, I haven't looked this forward to December and big time movies in a long time. Can't wait!!
It appears that Marius will have a very decent voice: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KxFEqPUu57s , http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DDK-k...eature=related , http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bYTTT...eature=related
It appears that Anne Hathaway (though this is tongue-in-cheek) can sing this musical: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OlZ9k...eature=related
I heard on GMA, this morning, that all of the singing is being sung while filming. No voiceovers. While that is admirable, will it lose something on screen?

Alfie Boe is going to be in the Queen's Jubilee Concert on Tuesday, which it appears will be televised in Canada and the U.S.! CBC is promising to show the full concert.
eta Or Monday. Looks like it's live on Monday, but being shown in N. A. on Tuesday.
There were rehearsals today by Buckingham Palace.

Last night, after subjecting myself to the atrocious Love Never Dies on PBS, I missed that Alfie Boe's concert at the Royal Albert Hall was on. Thankfully, it's on again Tuesday night, so the DVR is set.
Give me one more quiet night, before this loud morning gets it right, and does me in.
Perhaps what they mean is that while filming, all the actors will be singing rather than merely lip-syncing. But that doesn't mean the audio recorded from the filming will be the final audio.
I actually like Anne's version. Don't get me wrong I haven't heard every single version ever made... BUT what I like about her version is that it isn't perfect but rather raw and full of emotion. I think my favorite version is Ruthie Henshell's. Lea has the best voice of them all but is too perfect. But I loved how Ruthie got extremely raw in the end.
Obviously there's Ruthie's famous tenth anniversary addition.
But there's also this version which I love
What I love about Ruthie's addition is the voice is gorgeous but the rawness is still there.

I don't care how old Michael Ball is even if he is older than Jean Valjean! He should be the only person allowed to play Marius.

10th anniversary performance, notice how she sings the following:
"forgiving" at the beginning of the song (1:29 in the video)
"tear" at the middle (2:18 in the video)
"living" (3:42 in the video)
Then listen to the last line as she fades into defeat.
She sang it so that even if you don't know a word of English, you would still know Fantine's life. Amazing. Untouchable.

Springfield, Mass. - February 24, 2011 - Mike Pelletier recorded a match-high 13 kills at a .400 clip to lead the Springfield College men's volleyball team to a three-game sweep over visiting NJIT on Thursday evening in Blake Arena. The Pride took by the match by the set scores of 25-17, 25-22, 25-20.
Springfield, which regained its spot as the top-ranked team in the country in this week's AVCA Division III National Coaches Poll, improves to 5-10 this season, while the Highlanders drop to 3-9.
In a match in which 11 different members of the Pride had at least one kill, Pelletier led the attack with 13 kills at a season-best .400 clip. Greg Falcone converted on all seven of his swings and tacked on three blocks, while Cal Palumbo posted a match-high four blocks. Setter Mike Becker handed out 26 assists and Ryan Lilley came off the bench to deliver seven assists, five digs, two aces, and two blocks. Nick Ferry led the defensive effort with 12 digs for the hosts.
For NJIT, Herman Kantushov posted a team-best eight kills, while Andrei Stoyanow, Kevin Van Oss, and Doug Battersby each totaled six kills. Brady Smith registered 11 digs, and Adam Gustafson notched 27 assists and six digs.
A back-and-forth opening set featured 12 ties and five lead changes. After NJIT took a 15-14 lead on a triple block by Rafal Kierznowski, Kantushov, and Battersby, Springfield opened up a 8-0 spurt to own a 22-15 lead. Falcone teamed up for three blocks in the run to lead Springfield's scoring efforts. Becker and Palumbo came up big with a block on set point, as Springfield took the opening set while holding the visitors to a -.042 hitting percentage.
The Highlanders were much more efficient in the second frame as they hit .429 and snagged a 21-18 advantage after a Kantushov kill. However, after Pelletier connected for a kill to side out, Lilley's tough serving brought Springfield back to take a 22-21 lead. Gustafson tallied a kill to side out, only to have Springfield post the final three points two kills by Pelletier and another by Falcone. All told, Pelletier tallied seven kills in the second set.
Tommy Crow's serving provided a spark to start the third set as Springfield roared out to a 7-0 advantage. With plenty of new faces in the game for head coach Charlie Sullivan, Springfield couldn't hold onto its big-lead as the Highlanders stormed back to even the set at 19 after a Van Oss kill. Springfield scored the next three points, including a big ace by Mike Freytag, which forced a NJIT timeout. The Pride completed the three-game sweep on a huge block by Lilley and James O'Leary.
The Pride will travel to Princeton on Saturday afternoon for an EIVA Tait match scheduled for 4:00 pm.

Cumberland Times-News
The Maryland Wildlife Advisory Commission is a group of the state's citizens who are appointed by the governor to advise the Department of Natural Resources about wildlife management.
One of the nine members is Stephanie L. Boyles Griffin who is an employee of the Humane Society of the United States.
Griffin is the senior director of wildlife response, innovations and services for HSUS. According to the group's website, Griffin leads a team responsible for identifying, developing and implementing programs that promote humane, innovative, and sustainable wildlife management policies and practices.
These programs focus on direct intervention to: stop the exploitation of wildlife for human profit, recreation, and entertainment; and reduce the reliance of government agencies, corporations, municipalities, and communities on lethal, inhumane, and indiscriminant (sic) wildlife management methods ... , according to the website.
Hunting is a lethal wildlife management tool. I would think that HSUS also views it as recreation and entertainment. In her role as a WAC commissioner, it would seem that Griffin is in a position to directly intervene.
What would be wrong with Maryland having a spring bear season?
Nothing I can think of, as long as hunters are restricted to taking only male bears.
According to one online source, there are eight states that have spring bear hunts, including Montana, Idaho and Oregon.
The hunt could be conducted during three days in June, a week or two after the spring gobbler season ends. Hunters who drew bear tags for the previous fall, but didn't score, would be allowed to participate in the spring season.
We now have some Sundays to hunt in Maryland, but the regulations are a patchwork quilt county to county.
In Allegany County, for example, we can hunt spring gobblers on two Sundays, but in other counties, you can hunt spring gobblers every Sunday of the season.
The difference here is that our two-day rule applies to both private and public land. Public lands are off limits in the other counties.
Would be nice if one or more of our elected state officials would put in a bill to bring even more Sunday hunting to Almost Maryland, for deer, turkey and everything else.
This snow that tiptoed into Almost Maryland just after Christmas is likely to have made hunting difficult during the last few days of the muzzleloader season, mostly because of access problems, thus further suppressing the harvest numbers for the 2012 hunts.
In spite of a speed bump here and there, 2012 has been another great hunting and fishing year in these mountains we call home. Let's give thanks not just for success, but for the opportunities to have success.
Happy New Year.

By Doug and Polly Smith
Niagara Gazette
Niagara Gazette — Dear Mainland Jinglers — The season brought us 250 new friends last Friday at Tops.
This was the second year we've done our little bit for the Salvation Army and its tirelessly genial Major Celestin Nkounkou.
Last year folks dropped more than $300, a record, he said, into our Red Kettle at the north entrance to our only big grocery store. This year, not quite so much, we suspect, but it was busy, and like spending the whole day amidst Spirits of Christmas Past.
Doug, a compulsive score-keeper, tallies the donors (but not their contributions). He counted 250, a very consistent 32 per hour, except for noonish, when it dropped off to 24, and 3 o'clockish, when it soared to 51. At times, we actually had a line.
One actually apologized for putting in a $5, said "it's the smallest I have." A youngster about seven ran all the way across the lobby, twisting out of his Mom's hand, to drop in a coin.
Here comes Phyllis, widow of our former minister and golf partner Jim, as good a man as God ever gave us; here comes an umpire who once threw Doug out of a game and recalls him as "the whirling dervish of the softball league"; Polly's ceramics colleagues recalling the good old glaze; our some-time seamstress who has endured such grief; a woman who describes Doug's elf hat as "ridiculous," another who greets him as "Morrie" and a pretty woman in a kerchief who presents us a tract of her own faith.
"I can't believe I'm wearing my slippers," one woman admitted. Shucks, Doug's been there in his pajamas. Grocery Store Confessions.
Attorney Bob comes by with his boy. A dozen years ago their cats moved in with us. Coach Dean, arm in a sling, replaying downs and lost fly balls. Olive, bird-watcher deluxe. Bonnie, seatmate at Studio Arena. Our life in review. What a day. We supped silently at Theodore's, just looking at each other. We wondered if adjacent diners thought we were cross with each other. We were just too tired to talk.
The next day, the younger generation would take up the bells, young teens of the high school's Interact Club, in leggings and antlers, giggling and caroling.
Once home, we flipped on the TV. There'd been a little kettle talk about some shooting in Connecticut. Doug had wrongly thought it was minor. Doug's ancestors had lived in Newtown; he played there often, recalls how pranksters would edit the welcoming "Newtown, Thickly Populated" to "hickly populated." Last visit: 2006. Newtown, playtime remembered, now horror permanently fixed.
Again, speechless. How many 6- and 7 year-olds had cruised our kettle, eager to contribute, disdaining the toy dispenser behind us. God bless 'em, every one. Come visit. We might not talk much. It's the thoughts that count. Merry Christmas.Polly and DougE-mail firstname.lastname@example.com

Honesto November 5, 2013
Magdalena "Lena" Layer (Angel Aquino) went to the Church and offered one million pesos to the Priest in exchange of their support towards her and Hugo Layer (Joel Torre). Hugo and Lena are planning to run as Governor and Mayor at their town and are expecting the Church's support. Unfortunately, the Priest refused to accept the money because he have not seen Hugo going to their church. Meanwhile, at school, some of Honesto Galang's (Raikko Mateo) classmate were cheating during their exam. Their Teacher caught Honesto's classmates cheating but Honesto's close friend was the only one accused of cheating. Later at night, Honesto shared about his close friend who was accused of cheating. Lemuel Galang (Eddie Garcia) advised Honesto to inform his Teacher that his close friend did not cheat and rather it was his other classmate. Lourdes Galang (Janice De Belen) supported Lemuel's advise because Honesto must tell the truth always.

Well, I heard from a lot of folks who wanted to know WHERE I ate or could've eaten all this great food. I was on deadline and couldn't answer everyone, so I promised them I'd address it on the blog today. Here goes:
These are the places where we've eaten, in order, starting with Thai: Leelavadee, Shang Hai, too many barbecue places to name, Las Delicias (and our choices are abundant for Mexican), 42 Dominican (see review in tomorrow's GoMemphis), Petra and Jim's Place, Andrew Michael, Edo, and Maharaja.
I could've eaten authentic Chinese at Asian Palace, New Asia or Golden Coast; African at Abyssinia (Ethiopian, shown above in a Googled photo) or Gereny (sort of East African, but you pretty much get what they have that day and I can't promise that it's still open, though I think so--the phone hasn't been working for months); Columbian at Mi Tierra; and Tao Too for Taiwanese (and also Thai and Chinese--LOVE that place). We have plenty of Italian places; there's Mary's German Restaurant in Collierville (no longer open for lunch, I'm sorry to say); several Irish places (Majestic, Celtic, Dublin House); and the top French chef in the country this year, Jose Gutierrez, cooking at River Oaks.
This is just the beginning. Come on--add to this list!

CeBIT '97
CeBIT is the world's largest computer fair, bringing together vendors and attendees from many different countries. If you picture landscaped fairgrounds with 27 halls for vendors and even more auxiliary buildings with stores and restaurants and then add 650,000 people to the picture, all visiting the location over seven days, you are starting to get an image of CeBIT '97. CeBIT took place in the Messegelände in Hannover, Germany, March 13th to 19th, 1997.
This was my first time attending CeBIT, and my goal was to look at the Linux vendors and possibly talk about Linux to vendors whose software already runs under other Unix platforms. I also wanted to see what such a huge computer fair would be like and contrast it to the US's largest computer fair, Comdex, in Las Vegas, which I have attended the past seven years.
My first stop was Hall 11 to visit Caldera, Inc. Caldera's booth was easily recognizable as a Linux booth because of "Tux" the penguin, (well, a stuffed rendition of Tux) sitting on top of one of the monitors. Caldera's booth was crowded with people every time I visited it.
Attendees were interested in Caldera's OpenLinux products and getting information about Linux and Linux products. The 1500 Linux Journal Buyer's Guides given away by Caldera and their affiliated booths during CeBIT, also seemed to be a hit with attendees. Caldera also provided information about OpenDOS 7.01, which is free for non-commercial and educational use. Caldera's booth staff talked about recent announcements such as the upcoming port of Netscape software to OpenLinux, and the port of StarOffice 3.1 to OpenLinux.
A German television station, Bayerischer Rundfunk, filmed a short TV show about Linux at the Caldera booth. The "TV host" Jurgend Plate warmed up for a few minutes while the film crew continued to set up equipment. Before they started filming, after I identified myself as the Associate Publisher of Linux Journal, Jurgend hollered to me that LJ was "das beste Magazin auf der Welt!" I was told by Sebastian Hetze of LunetIX, that Jurgend Plate had been excited about Linux for years and that his exuberance over Linux was real.
A second Linux stop for me was at the large StarOffice booth in Hall 2 demonstrated on of the company's many different ports, StarOffice on OpenLinux.
At the the third Linux stop, the large Software AG booth, there was a signpost saying Datenbanktechnologie and the second sign down said "ADABAS & LINUX". Tux sat proudly on top of the workstation here by the Caldera OpenLinux Base. Nathan Guinn gave me a free review copy of the single-user version of LunetIX's ADABAS, an SQL Database, which I passed along to the Editor of Linux Journal.
A fourth company with a Linux product was NAG Ltd, which, among its other products, provided information on their Linux FORTRAN 90 Compiler.
Other companies, such as LST Software, GmBH and LunetIX had representatives at the show, mostly working out of Caldera's booth.
There was some press coverage about Linux. In the special CeBIT section of the Newspaper called "COMPUTER & KOMMUNIKATION" there was a full-page article titled "Linux schultert Microsoft-Anwendungen" which covered the capability of Microsoft Applications to run under Linux using Caldera's Wabi software.
All in all, CeBIT was an informative, busy, intensive, show. Next time I should like to try it without crutches resulting from a sprained ankle. I should also mention the color shows and performances in some booths, including a musical story (D2-Musical) with "Princess Digital, the Queen of the World", the artistic acrobats at VIAG Interkom and many cabaret-style performances, which added fun, colorful and entertaining diversions to CeBIT.

Linux has become a key foundation for supporting today's rapidly growing IT environments. Linux is being used to deploy business applications and databases, trading on its reputation as a low-cost operating environment. For many IT organizations, Linux is a mainstay for deploying Web servers and has evolved from handling basic file, print, and utility workloads to running mission-critical applications and databases, physically, virtually, and in the cloud. As Linux grows in importance in terms of value to the business, managing Linux environments to high standards of service quality — availability, security, and performance — becomes an essential requirement for business success.

Changes are underway for the Ike Round 2.2 Grant.
Grant Administrator David Waxman suggested removing a planning study from the project and moving the funds towards street improvement.
"The cost of materials is going up," Waxman told Commissioners Court on Monday.
No costs have been incurred for the study.
Waxman said it was better to move it now rather than later.
"We do it now so as to not have to cut out someone's road later," Waxman said.
Mosquito Control District Director Patrick Beebe presented the court with reduced cost of replacement items as previously requested by the court during a recent budget workshop.
"We have had a dry year with low mosquitoes until this last week and a half," Beebe said. "At this reduced price, I am requesting to purchase the items from unused funds this year so it can be removed from next years budget."
The court approved the request and transferred funds from line item Aerial Spraying Chemicals to Machine and Equipment for $6,900.
The items to be replaced are a lawnmower, light traps and a copy machine.
The court was also asked to sign the certificate of construction completion for the Orange County Convention and Expo Center.
A Certificate of Completion is a document which is completed by a contractor or engineer which states that certain construction has been completed and in accordance with the detailed specifications of the underlying agreement.
"This is the paperwork to get everything started," Maintenance Director Mark Wimberley said. "It is going to take a couple of months to check everything on the list. But we can add to the list tomorrow if we need be."

Comments about Canon PowerShot SX150 IS Red Digital Camera:
This camera replaced a SX110 IS which was stolen. I do like it very much and use it mostly for travel. It is small enough to fit in my purse. I did order a special battery to use with it and have already had to re-charge it. So that is one thing I am not so happy about, but still a rather minor inconvinence.
Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

The Daily Star
---- — Shop Talk is a weekly column highlighting local businesses. This week, we talk to Wyatt Green of Oneonta Brazilian Jiu Jitsu.
How long have you lived in the area?
All three of our instructors at Oneonta Brazilian Jiu Jitsu (myself, Matt Martindale and Ken Graig) grew up in the surrounding area, attended SUNY schools in central New York and ultimately decided that the Oneonta area is a pretty good place to live.
Tell me about your business:
Oneonta Brazilian Jiu Jitsu offers formal classes in traditional Brazilian Jiu-jitsu and no gi submission grappling, and also offers instruction and sparring opportunities for students to practice kickboxing and mixed martial arts (MMA).
Brazilian jujitsu is a grappling-based martial art that relies on overcoming an opponent through technique and leverage, rather than size or strength.
Submission grappling is essentially Brazilian jujitsu without using the traditional gi jacket and pants, which means that you can't rely on gripping sleeves or collars to control your opponent. We also focus heavily on wrestling take-downs in this class.
By offering kickboxing as well, we provide the foundational skills for students who are interested in mixed martial arts.
We appeal to a wide range of students and our members include teenagers in high school as well as professionals in their 40s. Some are interested purely in jujitsu, whether it is for sport or self defense; others are interested in incorporating striking and building skills in MMA. Many students are looking for an enjoyable hobby or way to stay fit; others are training to actively compete in jujitsu or mixed martial arts events and have performed very well in recent grappling tournaments.
Describe a typical day in your business:
Our classes begin with warm up exercises designed to loosen up the body, increase strength and endurance and provide a review of techniques that have already been learned. Instructors then teach the specific techniques of the day. Students are given opportunities to practice while the instructor guides them and corrects their technique. Class usually finishes with sparring that enables students to practice their techniques against resisting opponents.
Class is immediately followed by open mat. Here, students can drill moves, use our training equipment, spar against each other in grappling or striking, or work on their striking techniques with our kickboxing instructor.
Where do you see this business in five years?
In five years we will have more students, more mats and equipment, and additional time slots for classes to accommodate the extra students. We currently have a great core group of beginning students who come in every day and train hard. In five years, this group will be advanced students with upper belt ranks who will inspire and help instruct the new crop of beginning students.
How did you get started in this line of work?
It began simply with looking for a place to train. I had studied jujitsu years ago, but the school's instructor had left the area. I was happy to find that Ken Graig and Matt Martindale were developing a part-time school in Oneonta. I had a background in wrestling so I volunteered to share my knowledge. As the numbers of people training with us grew, it became clear that we could do more, and we decided to offer full time classes.
An important step was enlisting the aid of Tai Kai jujitsu black belt Dennis Sugrue in overseeing the school, which means that dedicated students can be officially promoted in belt rank all the way to black belt. We are the only Brazilian jujitsu school in the Oneonta area.
Describe a memorable moment in your workplace:
There are many memorable moments, but I would say that many of them have something in common — the moment when you catch an initially awkward, inexperienced student smoothly pulling off a technique on another student. It is at that time that it is fully clear how much progress they have made. Belt promotions are very gratifying for that same reason, as it is a formal acknowledgement of how much a student has improved.
What is the hardest thing you have to do?
One of the things that I have seen many schools struggle with is dealing with the many levels of skill and experience that can be present in a class at the same time. If an instructor focuses on beginning techniques, advanced students do not progress; if they focus on more advanced techniques, beginners get lost.
We didn't want that to be a problem at our school; we wanted beginners without any experience to feel comfortable in every class and we also wanted to teach advanced techniques. Our solution, which has worked out very well for us, is to divide our classes into groups and teach both basic and advanced techniques each class. This lets every student, regardless of their experience level, learn the techniques that are best suited for them.
Of course, since we make it a point to check and correct each student's technique individually, this can require us to work harder each class that we teach, but the end results have certainly justified the extra energy that is required on our part.
The most enjoyable?
The most enjoyable part for me is seeing students discover for themselves the real beauty of the art. I have many hobbies, but jujitsu has always been my favorite, and it is gratifying to see it bring others the same enjoyment that it brings me. When I hear students talk about obsessively watching Youtube technique videos at one in the morning, I know they are hooked as well.
How do you define success for your business?
This business came about not as a scheme to make a lot of money, but primarily because we wanted a place to train. Since there was no school in the area, we needed to create one. This is the place where we train and develop our own skills, so we want the place to be as good as it can be. So, to us, success means having a school where we have a core group of dedicated training partners who consistently come in looking to improve. We want to have an environment where people who drag themselves in to train after a long day will be energized by their partners. If we can have that and be able to pay the bills then that will be a huge success.
What are some advantages/drawbacks of doing business in this area?
An obvious advantage of doing business in this area is that we have no competition. We are the only Brazilian jujitsu academy in the area. The closest schools are over an hour away.
The presence of two colleges is also an advantage, as we offer something that is quite popular with college students. MMA has exploded in popularity in recent years, especially among this demographic.
What sets you apart from your competitors?
We are the only school overseen by a black belt in the area. We offer formal classes five days a week, and students can be promoted up to black belt level. There is simply no other place in the area where students can get this.
Also, all of our instructors enjoy teaching. In fact, we are all teachers by trade — Matt in physical education, Ken in special education and myself in biology. We are in this not to make money or because it is the only option available to us, but because it is something that we love to do. It is not a rare thing to find skilled practitioners who make very poor teachers. This is not the case with us.
What advice would you give to someone trying to enter your field of work?
Teaching Brazilian jujitsu to adults is rarely a lucrative profession. So to get into that field for that reason would be a mistake. Do it because you like jujitsu and enjoy teaching.Oneonta Brazilian Jiu @Breakout Box:Jitsu 55 S. Main St., Oneonta @Breakout Box:Owner/instructors: Wyatt Green, Matt Martindale and Ken Graig OneontaMartialArts.com

From staff reports
Sophomore Dylan Owens scored two goals late in the first half to lift Willard past Joplin 2-0 on Thursday afternoon in girls prep soccer action at the Joplin Athletic Complex.
Owens put the Tigers on the scoreboard with a goal at the 32-minute mark, and she connected again four minutes later.
Joplin (0-2) had six total shots, 10 fewer than Willard. Eagles goalkeeper Megan Rowe made 12 saves, and Willard goalie Ali Perry had two saves.
"Megan did a goojob," Joplin coach Ed Miller said. "She made a lot of good saves. They had a lot of shots on goal.
"Defensively overall we did a pretty decently job. Owen got loose twice and scored both times."
The Eagles have another home match Monday against Neosho, starting with the junior varsity match at 4:30 p.m.
Webb City tops Monett for program's first win
WEBB CITY, Mo. — Webb City, in its first season, topped Monett 3-0 for the first win in program history.
"It was pretty electrifying," Webb City coach Brad Moser said. "The kids loved it and the crowd was awesome."
Asia Bemo scored five minutes into the game before Allison Tappana took an assists from Kaylee Reynolds and scored to make it 2-0 in the 18th minute.
Reynolds then scored an unassisted goal in the 40th minute to make it 3-0.
Webb City (1-1) hosts Ozark at home on Tuesday.
Nixa 6, Carl Junction 3
CARL JUNCTION, Mo. — Nixa scored four consecutive goals to break a 2-2 tie.
Payton Dehart scored five of the Eagles' six goals and assisted on the other. Paige Townsend scored one goal and had one assist.
The Bulldogs took a 1-0 lead when Callie Degani scored on an assist from Taylor Beck. Dehart responded with two consecutive goals before Carl Junction's Sydney Soleberg tied the game with a goal at the 20:00 mark.
Nixa scored four straight goals over the next 35 minutes to put the game out of reach. Soleberg scored Carl Junction's final goal during the 78th minute.
Carl Junction (1-2) travels to face Bentonville, Ark., on Monday.
Joplin goes 1-1 in tourney
CLAREMORE, Okla. — The Joplin High School baseball team split its opening games in the Tiger/Zebra Classic.
The Eagles, sparked by the long ball, outlasted McAlester 10-9 in eight innings before losing 12-4 in five innings to the host Zebras.
Joplin will finish play in the Claremore Pool at 4:30 p.m. today against Grove. Joplin will return on Saturday for a contest at 1 p.m. or 3 against a team from the Pryor Pool.
Said Joplin coach Kirk Harryman: "I thought overall we competed very well. That first game was very exciting — a good win. We had 17 hits in the two games and I believe we're starting to become more comfortable at the plate."
Joplin received a grand-slam home run from Colton Johnson to key a six-run third inning in the opener. Brett Graham, leading off the bottom of the eighth inning, hit the first pitch for a homer to end it.
Graham, a senior right-hander, also picked up the mound decision in relief.
Chris Leonardi and Nate Tackkett each had two hits for Joplin.
Johnson and Nate Brummer each had two hits for the Eagles in the second game.
Carl Junction 10, Riverton 0

The Cardinals received a two-run double from left fielder Austin Carter.
Webb City (1-3 overall) visits Bentonville (Ark.) at 5 p.m. today for a varsity-junior varsity doubleheader.
Joplin 7, Glendale 2
The Eagles, after a second-place finish in their tournament on Wednesday, beat Ozark Conference foe Glendale on the Joplin Athletic Complex courts.
"It was a big win for us tonight," Joplin coach Sean McWilliams said. "Glendale tied for the conference championship last year. They were without their No. 2 singles player, but our kids played well and stepped up. We have a long road ahead and a lot of work before we get a chance to play them again with a full lineup. But it was a good win."

Chambers and senior Tucker Palone posted an 8-2 win against Bailey and Jordan Cox at No. 1 doubles.
Logan Sperry, Quentin Kolb and Nolan Munch also won for Webb City in singles. Sperry and Kolb also won at No. 2 doubles.
Neosho wins came from Pail Sanders in singles and Jace Hendricks and Sanders in doubles.
Carl Junction 6, Nevada 3
The Bulldogs hiked their dual record to 2-0 as Ben Coltharp and Andy Gloshen swept matches on the Missouri Southern courts.
Coltharp, a sophomore, bested Andrew Arneson 8-3 at No. 1 singles and hooked up with Gloshen to beat Arenson-Colton Short 8-2 at No. 1 doubles. Gloshen, a senior, beat Short at No. 2 singles.
Matt Casper, Clayton Sloniker and Brandon Weston also won in singles for the Bulldogs.
Nevada, in singles, received a narrow victory at No. 3 from Andrei Ziabchenko. In doubles, Ziabchenko-Skyler Crews and Skyler Laning-Anthony Do prevailed.

Brian Meyer is reporting that the Council majority has settled on Curtis Haynes Jr. to succeed Brian Davis to represent the Ellicott District.
Haynes is not a politician, but rather a college professor and an economist.
That makes the choice atypical and sensible.
Think of it -- a Councilman whose district includes downtown and the waterfront who has expertise in economics. When's the last time we had that kind of expertise on the job?
And, as a bonus, Haynes pays his bills.
And, for better or worse, depending on your perspective, Haynes gives the majority block that is expected to appoint him Thursday the sixth vote that represents a veto-proof majority on the Council. The politics of the district are such that Haynes may be well served by not walking in lock-step with that majority, however.
As I've written previously, his credentials, and the backing of Arthur O. Eve Jr., made Haynes a serious contender for the job since the day he applied, along with the Rev. Darius Pridgen, who, besides being accomplished in his own right, enjoyed the backing of Grassroots, the mayor's political organization.
Firefighter Bryon McIntyre emerged as a serious third contender, finishing a close second to Pridgen in a vote of Democratic committeemenSaturday. He remains a potentially serious challenger to Haynes if he decides to oppose him in the special election this fall that will determine who will serve the balance of the term. For all we know, Pridgen, too, may make a run for it.
Given what's at stake this fall, with all the seats in the State Senate and Assembly up for grabs, you can expect the various factions in the Democratic Party to all run candidates to boost turnout. Party HQ will no doubt be behind Haynes, barring an unexpected falling out, and Brown/Grassroots will almost certainly field a candidate. And the field may not be limited to those two.
Haynes has a bit of a handicap, in that he's a political neophyte without an independent political base. That's not a major problem, so long as Eve and HQ provide the necessary backup.
Haynes' more-immediate challenge is establishing himself in the community and building as much of a track record as one can expect in less than a year. The majority that has selected him owes it to him and themselves to see to it that he succeeds. And that means, among other things, doing right by the Ellicott District.

Also, how long did you wear a belly binder? They gave me one and it needs washed, but without it I feel like my insides are going to fall out. I don't feel like I can go without it to let it hang to dry so we're debating getting a second but hate to waste money.
Last night we went to visit and they decided to leave off her cpap to see how she does. I got to take her temperature and change her diaper, then my hubby got to lift her to help weigh her and change her bedding. It was so exciting to do something other than stare at her and to see her face without the cpap and her eyes open.
Congrats! I'm glad everything's going along well. Like everyone said, she is a fighter. Will be thinking and prayer for you! and yes join us at the PAIF grad board!
We've decided my body isn't made to make babies and we aren't going to have another, but we are thrilled to have our sweet tiny baby girl. She's doing awesome and yesterday's nurse kept calling her a rock star because she's doing so much better than they'd expect for her size. We were able to start kangaroo care last night and that was amazing!
those binders are great. i actually requested a couple more when i left the hospital. i washed them everyday and then used the other one when one got dirty. it was a pain to wash them everyday, but i would def recommend it. it gives a lot more support. i used them for a good 2 weeks or so. once you lose the water weight you will also feel them getting looser so i think you will be able to tell when you dont need them anymore.
for me some days i felt like i was never going to get better and breast feeding makes it more difficult because it takes a lot out of you, but i promise within 3 weeks you will feel much better.
im surprised they used staples for you. i had some sort of internal stiching that was supposed to dissolve on its own.
i hope you and your baby girl are doing great.
btw, the wanting to have another baby thing. thats wht i thought too the first few weeks. that i was never going to have another baby because of wht i went through, but the human mind and body have amazing healing powers i guess. i look at my daughter and totally think i can do it again.

For the first time in years, INDYCAR trusted their drivers to show top-level talent - and the drivers responded at Texas Motor Speedway.
As the IZOD IndyCar Series prepares for its 2012 campaign, two great unknowns still remain about how the season will pan out - pack racing, and the Lotus enigma.
Change is inevitable in the IZOD IndyCar Series' future - it is up to the fans if they come along for the ride or not.
The conditions that brought about the wreck that killed IndyCar driver Dan Wheldon also produced the closest finishes in IndyCar history. Pop Off Valve explains why it is time for "pack racing" to go.

Nothing is ever certain when it involves the NFL draft.
Dwayne Allen found that out last season when he submitted his paperwork for evaluation and was given a first-round grade, only to wait through two rounds before being selected early in the third by the Indianapolis Colts.
Things worked out well for Allen, who earlier this week was named to his third NFL All-Rookie team after setting a franchise record for receptions by a first-year tight end.
"It ended up being a blessing, because I ended up playing with one of the best quarterbacks - the best quarterback - this year's draft," said Allen, referring to former Stanford star Andrew Luck.
While Allen was on hand on Wednesday for Tajh Boyd's announcement that he'll return to Clemson for his senior season, his own story intersects most directly with that of DeAndre Hopkins, who on Thursday announced that he, like Allen did a year ago, will leave after his junior season for the NFL.
Allen said that at the end of last season, he felt "I had reached a certain point that I felt like I wasn't really going to get any better."
Ready physically and mentally for the rigors of the NFL, Allen tossed his hat into the ring and never looked back - attacking his new job, as Michael Vick told Boyd, "full throttle."
"It's like I told the local media up there (in Indianapolis) - I didn't leave school early to be a backup tight end," Allen said. "I left school to go be that guy. The Colts' organization blessed me with the opportunity to go out and play every Sunday and not just take the bus."
Hopkins, coming off an off-season in which he improved his strength and became a more physical layer, and a season in which he broke Clemson records for receiving yardage and touchdown receptions, looks to be ready, as well.
How much would Hopkins be likely to improve had he chosen to return to Clemson?
Allen said his own readiness for the NFL is a testament to Dabo Swinney's program at Clemson.
"I think the success I've had speaks to the program we have here at Clemson," Allen said. "Coach Swinney and his staff do a great job of preparing players to go play at the next level.
"When I made my decision last year, Coach Swinney came to me and said 'Dwayne, I think you're doing the right thing. I hate to see you go, but I think it's the right thing not only for you, but for your career.'
"Coach (Danny) Pearman prepared me for anything I was going to face in the NFL. I'm just an example of that."

Alex Cross was a rising star in the Washington, DC, Police Department when an unknown shooter gunned down his wife, Maria, in front of him. Alex's need for vengeance was placed on hold as he faced another huge challenge-raising his children without their mother.
Years later Alex is making a bold move in his life. He has left the FBI and set up practice as a psychologist once again. His life with Nana Mama, Damon, Jannie, and little Alex finally feels like it's in order. He even has a chance at a new love.
Then Cross's former partner, John Sampson, calls in a favor. Now Cross must go on the hunt for the most cunning, psychotic killer he has ever faced...and it pushes him dangerously close to the breaking point.

Rockport — Bruce William Young, Jr., passed away peacefully at Kaplan Family Hospice House with his family by his side on Wednesday, October 3, 2012, after a six month long battle against cancer, fought with dignity, grace, and courage. He was born in St. Paul, Minn. on July 25, 1940, to the late Bruce W. Young and Agnes (Hermann) Young.
An only child, Bruce lived in Minnesota until his father transferred to Malden in 1949 to work for Joslin's and later for Jordan Marsh Company in Peabody. Bruce attended Melrose High School until he joined the Navy in 1957. He served in the Submarine Service for five years on several boats, the last of which was the Ethan Allen, of which he was a Plankholder.
Bruce was married in 1963 to Peggy Halladay of Portland, Ore., whom he met while living in San Francisco. After living in Melrose for five years, they moved to Stoneham, where they lived for 34 years, relocating to Rockport in 2004.
Bruce went to work for Polaroid Corporation in 1968 and worked in Copy Service and Research. When Dr. Land left Polaroid and began his nonprofit Rowland Institute in Cambridge in 1982, Bruce went with him. Dr. Land and his dog Desi were Bruce's daily companions in an energizing and creative environment. Bruce retired in 2002, whereupon he happily and actively pursued his love of gardening in the Lanesville Community Garden.
Bruce was a member of King Cyrus Lodge of Stoneham, now affiliated with Good Samaritan Lodge A.F. & A.M. of Reading, for 36 years, and the Andover Sportsmen's Club and Cape Ann Sportsmen's Club. He was also a 40 year member of the St. Patrick's Thursday night group in Stoneham and the Boston A.R.E. Search for God Group.
Bruce is survived by his loving wife of 48 years, Peggy, of Rockport; his daughters, Kelli Harte and her husband Joseph of Littleton, and Leslie Perra and her husband Michael of Sunderland, Vt.; and by beloved grandchildren, Shannon Harte and Adam Harte and Nicole Perra and Brandon Perra.
Bruce's life was defined by the many friendships he made and the people he selflessly helped. He always saw the big picture, looked for and found the good in every person he met, and his sense of humor was contagious. Kind-hearted and loving, he will be forever missed by his family and dear friends. Bruce's unshakeable faith in God and his lifelong study of His message sustained him throughout his life and during his final illness.
ARRANGEMENTS: A Memorial Service will be held in Burgess and Mackey Funeral Home, 201 Main Street, Rockport on Saturday, October 13, at 11 a.m. Relatives and friends are cordially invited to attend.
In lieu of flowers, contributions may be made in his name to The Open Door (Cape Ann Food Pantry), 28 Emerson Avenue, Gloucester, MA 01930 (online at foodpantry.org) or to the Kaplan Family Hospice House, 78 Liberty Street, Danvers, MA 01923.

Dark Country marks the directorial debut of actor/comic-book publisher/horror enthusiast Thomas Jane (The Punisher, The Mist). It's a stylish neo-noir thriller that, although languidly paced, is a curious and engrossing little (88 minutes) film. It could best be described as Lost Highway enters The Twilight Zone.
After getting hitched to a blackjack dealer in an impromptu Vegas wedding, Dick (played by Jane) and his new bride Gina (Lauren German, Hostel II) are driving through the desert when they come upon a ghastly accident victim. The other car seems to be gone, but there's a barely-living victim – bloodied, broken, and missing most of his face. Dick and Gina put the stranger in the back seat, but their efforts to get help are hindered by bad cell reception and losing their way in the vast dark of the desert. When the injured man turns violent, Dick kills him and, in a panic, buries him in the desert. Then things get weird. Lynchian-weird.
Dark Country is about as noir as it gets. The first thing that draws you in is the highly stylized look of the film. Taking place at night, in the desert, everything's obscured by shadows, and illuminated by the surreal gold-blue-white light of a full moon. It gives the film a surreal, high-contrast look that's both dreamy and dreary. All the shots of Dick and Gina in the car are shot on green screen, which not only adds to the unreal setting, but also pays homage to B-movies of the 1940s and 50s.
The film has a few lulls, not uncommon in something so small and claustrophobic. Fortunately the strong acting and beautiful look carries one through. The "twist" ending is not terribly twisty, but it is a bit of a mindfuck.
Special features are sparse. A standard commentary track with Jane, writer Tab Murphy, and producer Patrick Aiello offers a mix of insider anecdotes, ruminations about method, and uninteresting chit-chat between the trio. The featurette, "Journey to Dark Country" is also what you would expect: talking head interviews from cast and crew interspersed with film clips and behind-the-scenes shots.
Dark Country is creepy, compelling and beautiful to look at – a rare treat for a direct-to-DVD film.
