Today - is a big day!
...Today everyone can official hear "Here and Now"! Me and Nickelback want to hear answer for question: HOW IS "HERE AND NOW" FOR YOU? For me it is great album. Perhaps better than Dark Horse, but also I don't know. But Lullaby - it's AWEsome... YEAH?!
Replies to This Posting
Re: Today - is a big day!
Nickelback usually do great hard rock songs but I actually found myself digging the lighter half of the album a lot more.

If you click on news on the Nickleback website there should be a box in the top left hand corner that says: Nickleback Here and Now Click here to validate your Here and Now CD or Digital Album and recieve exclusive content.
RE: Today - is a big day!
Got the cd the day it came out and I LOVE IT! I love the mix on this cd and yes Lullaby is a great song. I really love Trying Not To Love You (for reasons best left unsaid).
Bottoms Up is Fantastic! How can you go wrong with a drinking song like that!
An Midnight Queen is AWESOME! What could be better than a song that mentions doing Tequila. Mmm Cuervo...I do LOVE my Jose. LOL
I LOVE When We Stand Together, the first single from this cd, I love the sound, the words, everything about it. This song says ALOT! On a personal note I was curious about the pan pipes being played in the song? Who actually played them or where they just generated electronically? I loved them in the song.
The wait for this cd was well worth it. I LOVED Darkhorse and played it all the time in the car ( for two months straight...needless to say I burned my girls out on it LOL). This cd will be just the same! Fantastic job on this cd guys!

OCP News Service (Exclusive)
Orthodoxy Cognate PAGE received an email from Archbishop Eustathius Matta Roham (Syrian Orthodox Archdiocese of Jazirah & Euphrates) inviting our attention to the destruction of the St. Mary's Syrian Orthodox Church in Dair Al-Zor, which is located on the banks of Euphrates River. It was destroyed by dynamites on Saturday, 27 October 2012.
Archbishop was reported that there was an explosion near the church, but never had an idea how much damage was done to it. Later a picture was published in Facebook.
The Archbishop said that it was early this summer that many Christian community]ies left Dair Al-Zor, because of the heavy fighting in the town. Many of them were displaced in Hassake, where the Archdiocesan headquarters is located. The community in Dair Al-Zor worked hard for ten years (1994-2004) to build this church as well as the Al-wahda Private School. The criminals destroyed all these wonderful works in less than one minute.
Archbishop Eustathius Matta Roham request prayers, good will and action to bring an end to destruction of God's sanctuaries.

Comments about Loki Avengers Adult Men's Plus Size Costume:
I was disappointed in the costume overall. I had to order it online, as it wasn't available in store, and looking back I probably wouldn't have bought it if I had the chance to try it on in-store.
The Loki horned helment (which to me, is the showpiece of any Loki costume) was basically flimsy gold plastic, with little horns attached by velcro and an elastic string under the chin. The jacket wasn't terrible, but definitely not elaborate in person (the design is right on the fabric, no embellishment whatsoever). The cape is nice, and I like that it was easy to put on.
This costume is definitely not for someone planning on making a big impression with it, but rather for just being silly and having fun with it...which is what I completely intend to do.
For the price, I was expecting more than what I got...
Comments about Loki Avengers Adult Men's Plus Size Costume:
I ordered this product because it was the only loki costume to be found anywhere for under 100 dollars. Also, I knew it was plus size and should be able to be fixed easily, considering I'm a 16 year old girl. It is more brown than black in the picture but still looks nice, and the green is a little bit of a brighter green than i would typically think of for Loki (that may be just because I have an obsession with him that I think this.) I do love the cape, it is easy to deal with and "flowy", and it is pretty comfortable. I was very disappointed to know, after I had bought it, it IS NOT A FULL HELMET! Being an active cosplay-er, I will hopefully be able to fix it and maybe permanently place on the horns (which are Velcro-ed on), but are now good for traveling purposes. I do think it is a good costume over all. It is a bit pricey but I would recommend it to anyone who didn't mind that aspect.

Written by Denise Dubé
History buffs only need a car and a bit of enthusiasm to enjoy day-long adventures into the past. From Newport to Lexington, there are plenty of historic sites in the area. The best part? You can get to all these destinations on one tank of gas (or less).
Newport Mansions, Newport, Rhode Island
Why Go? The Vanderbilts, Rockefellers and Astors helped create the Gilded Age—and some pretty magnificent mansions. Three of the 11 jaw-dropping Bellevue Avenue manors are open year round. "The number one historic destination in Newport is the mansions," said Mark Brodeur, communications director for Rhode Island Tourism. "They are the most visited historic attraction in New England."
Insider Tip: Eight of the 11 houses closed on Nov. 22, but several of them will re-open by March 15. The Breakers, the Elm and Chateau Sur Mer are open year round.
Must Do: Enjoy Christmas at the mansions until Dec. 30. Admission is $28 for adults and $9 for children aged 6-17.
The Fine Print: Taking pictures is usually not allowed. Ask before you snap a photo.
Newport, Rhode Island
Why Go? "When we talk about history, the streets are actually museums," Brodeur said. The landmark trail shows early America, as it really was then and now.
Insider Tip: Venture further from the trail to visit a few of the dozens of the antique shops and art galleries.
Must Do: Need a break from mansion-hopping? Walk along Bellevue Avenue and feel the grandeur, too. Wrought iron gates, stone walls and magnificent gardens give visitors a taste of the past.
The Fine Print: Because these are gated mansions, you're not allowed to walk the estates—just in front and behind the property.
Corner of Massachusetts and Old Massachusetts Avenue
Why Go? The Battle Green, located at the corner of Bedford Street, and Massachusetts Avenue, is marked by H. H. Kitson's statute of a Minute Man. Here, a handful of self-made colonial militia men stood their ground against thousands of British soldiers.
Insider Tip: Captain John Parker and his soldiers are buried under the obelisk on the Green's edge. Cross the street and walk around Buckman Tavern. Colonial fighters, alerted by Paul Revere and William Dawes, waited there.
Must Do: Ye Olde Burial Ground is across the common and behind First Parish-Unitarian Church. Here you'll find the remains of Lexington's earliest settlers.
The Fine Print: Don't play Frisbee or baseball on the Battle Green—it's considered hallowed ground and holds America's first fallen soldiers.
250 North Great Rd.
Lincoln, MA
Why Go? In 1775, after the British headed for Concord, the colonial regulars from every nearby village and town were there to greet—and defeat—them. The replicated bridge and an adjacent obelisk are monuments to that bloody fight. "Concord and Lexington, all these years later, still evoke the courage and conviction of American Patriots," said Betsy Wall, executive director of the Massachusetts Office of Travel and Tourism.
Insider Tip: Sidestep over to the Old Manse, hidden strategically beside the bridge. It was home to Nathaniel Hawthorn and a few other historic notables.
Must Do: Drive into Concord Center and have lunch, dinner or afternoon tea at the Colonial Inn in Monument Square. This ancient building also served as a hospital and was where the munitions were stashed. The restaurant offers typical, but flavorful New England fare. (Ask about the resident ghost.)
The Fine Print: The park is free and open to the public. Check regularly for ongoing year-round events; special programs sometimes require a reservation and a small fee.

I gotta say, I prefer the shirts with less curly q's allover and a good main image that can be easily understood with a glance and well admired with a stare.
The simple, yet thought provoking designs are my favorite.

Author Jennifer R. Hubbard does an outstanding job describing people who have anxiety, panic attacks, depression, and suicidal thoughts in the telling of Try Not To Breathe.

The south side of the men's gymnasium (officially, the State Gymnasium)at Iowa State College, taken from across the athletic field. The structure between the field and the building is a handball court (with four playing areas). The handball courts were later moved to the east of the field. One interesting aspect of the construction of the State Gymnasium is that it was constructed by the college's buildings and grounds crew, headed by Building and Grounds Superintendent Thomas Sloss. Bids for the gym's construction came in over what the Iowa legislature had appropriated. The swimming pool would have had to be eliminated to make the construction possible if done by any of the bidders, so Tom Sloss agreed to have his staff build it themselves--with the swimming pool. The development of the field was delayed by the absence of funds with grading done only spasmodically. It was 1914 before the field was in full use. It was known as "New State Field" or "State Field." The field was dedicated in 1938 as "Clyde Williams Field" to honor the man who served Iowa State from 1906 to 1919, the last five years as athletic director. The Marston water tower can be seen in the background on the right of this photo.

ACCA Caribbean celebrates 10th anniversary
ACCA Caribbean has marked its 10th anniversary at a gala event in Trinidad attended by more than 350 stakeholders. The event, which took place on 2 November at the Hyatt Regency Hotel, Port of Spain, provided an opportunity to celebrate the many milestones achieved by ACCA in the region since the opening of the Trinidad office in 1999. Among these are:
- the signing of Practice Monitoring contracts at the last two regional ICAC conferences for the territories of Barbados, Trinidad, Bahamas, Guyana and the Organization of Eastern Caribbean States (OECS)
- the renewal of Joint Examination Scheme partnership agreements with five regional institutes
- an increased number of regional employers attaining Approved Employer status
- a number of tuition providers achieving Approved Learning Provider status.
In her address, Brenda Lee Tang, ACCA Caribbean's head of corporate development, thanked the stakeholders for their support over the past 10 years and paid tribute to the key role played by ACCA chief executive Helen Brand in establishing an ACCA presence in the region.
'In 1998, ACCA held a meeting to assess and identify additional support for its stakeholders in the Caribbean region,' she said. 'Helen Brand took part in those initial discussions and played a pivotal role in the drive to establish a committed presence in the Caribbean. ACCA's Council subsequently agreed to the opening of a Caribbean office in Port of Spain.
'Trinidad and Tobago at that time possessed, and still does, the largest student and member base in the region. By December 2008, with over 18,000 students - marking a 43% growth in numbers since 2001 and a 68% growth in membership to more than 4,000 - last year's restructure of the Caribbean office could not have come at a better time.'
Helen Brand attended the gala celebration and remarked that while the global economic landscape in 1999 was very different to today, the fundamental challenges for accounting professionals remain the same.
'The accountant's role is to provide the skills and expertise organisations need to thrive,' she said. 'And, in the current economic environment, we are seeing a fresh appreciation of distinct value finance professionals bring to business.
'Whatever the future may hold, we will be working to ensure that the ACCA Qualification continues to open doors and lead to the best opportunities business can offer, across the region and the world. And, through this, make sure that the next 10 years of ACCA in the Caribbean are just as successful and productive as the last.'

Daily Star
---- — Step Back in Time features news items from The Daily Star 25 and 50 years ago.
25 years ago
Sept. 8, 1987
GILBERTSVILLE -- Eight-month-old Tanya Lynn Van Dusen was there. So were 96-year-old Flora Card and most of the other residents of the village of Gilbertsville and the surrounding town of Butternuts.
They were on hand Monday to set the history of Gilbertsville into the ground, to be unveiled 50 years from now. In the year 2037, residents will find a blue Coleman cooler full of 1987 trivia buried in the triangular plot of land at the intersection of Bloom, Spring and Commercial streets.
Gilbertsville, a village 455 people, has been celebrating its 200th birthday all year. In a Labor Day weekend celebration designed to wrap it all up, residents and visitors danced, sang, played music, spun looms, carved stone, showed off antique cars, sold crafts and ate food.
It was all in honor of a trip Abijah Gilbert made 200 years ago over land and water to settle a plot of land he had purchased, said Roger Halbert, chairman of the Bicentennial Committee.
Saved inside the Coleman cooler "capsule" are a book on Gilbertsville history written by resident Douglas McKee, a pictorial history book of the village, a local telephone directory, maps of the town's historical district, the town of Butternuts and Otsego County, the town, village and school district 1987 budgets, class of 1987 graduation and prom programs, a copy of the Sept. 3, 1987, New Berlin Gazette and of the Sept. 5, 1987 Daily Star, the U.S. Constitution, a 1987 penny, two butternuts and other items.
Also included were envelopes from individual families with messages to their children and grandchildren and a list signed by people who attended Monday afternoon's burial of the capsule.

Sept. 8, 1962
WALTON -- Groundbreaking ceremonies for the new St. John the Baptist Church and catechetical center were held Thursday evening in Walton on the grounds adjoining the present church on Benton Avenue.
Several dignitaries were present to take part in this momentous occasion. They were Judge Walter Terry, Dr. E. Ogden Bush, Mayor Clifford Dennis, Supervisor Harry Clark, Dr. Harry Wilbur, Frank More, Trustees Paul Eaton and Martin Doyle Sr., The Rev. James J. Minehan and The Rev. John Harzynski.
Father Harzynski spoke as follows: "Fifty years ago in 1912 events led up to the establishment of our church. St. John the Baptist Church was founded. It is fitting we build on this anniversary.
"We are most mindful of those who have made this possible today for their charity and are grateful to those who have contributed. A gilded spade is to be used to break the ground. It is symbolic of the faith and work of you good people -- your sacrifices. You bring forth a dream and now it is very near fulfillment.
"With this spade the Bishop, two and one-half years ago, sent me to dig. I dug and struck gold. You are that gold. I have found you a golden people, willing to sacrifice."

What is your leisure time worth?
Ch-ch-ch-ch-changes (turn and face the strain)
In one way or another, New Year's resolutions revolve around time.
In 2013, I want to: spend more time with the kids/family, have a better work-life balance, make time to workout, go to the gym or do yoga. Try crossfit. Read more, start a hobby or a part time business. Learn a new skill, to cook or a foreign language. Sleep more. You get the idea.
Most people when polled, say that they'd gladly trade a pay cut for more time off. Unfortunately, for the majority of us, this is not an option.
Outsourcing? Sounds cool!
So, how to carve our more time for the things you really want to do? Try outsourcing...that is, hiring someone to do the jobs you don't really want to do, something you don't always enjoy. Hire a landscaper to do the yard work, instead of mowing that lawn yourself. Taskrabbit is a service that allows you to put a specific task out to bid. Say you bought a new bureau for the guest room at Ikea, but have been procrastinating the assembly. With good reason. Those Ikea projects are often harder than they look. Put it on Taskrabbit. It works like this. Go to Taskrabbit.com. Register. Describe the job, specify when you like it done. Sit back, wait for the bids to come in, then sort through them. Go with the lowest bidder if that's important to you, or, pick someone with a little more experience whose bid is a little higher. It's all up to you. Turn a 3 hour project into a few minutes of executive supervision.
One mo' time...
Get an even bigger bang for your buck by automating or outsourcing recurring tasks. I gave you the lawnmowing example earlier.
You and your spouse both work? Having every meal delivered to the house? That getting expensive? Worried about how healthy those takeout meals are? What about that resolution to lose weight? Think about about grocery delivery. Peapod and Roche Bros both have local delivery services. Try them.
(Finally) Your time has come...
Enjoy going to the liquor store? Me neither. I'm in and get out in 5 minutes, getting pretty much the same stuff every time. Check. You too? Bingo! This is exactly why we started Metro West Wines. It's about us giving you an extra hour or two in your week. What could you do with those 2 hours every week? What is your leisure time worth. Let us know. That's why we're here.

First time is the charm for Duerksen
"Sometimes when it gets down to this point, it's 'I don't know why I did this—what's wrong with me,'" said a smiling Duerksen about her short-notice decision to create an inventory of projects to sell.
"It seemed like a safe place to try this out and see what people think," she added about Art in the Park, now in its 29th year.
Duerksen creates bulletin boards using old window frames and also paints seasonal themes on old wooden doors.
She decided to call her fledgling business Chicken Coop Creations in honor of the place she found her primary source of materials.
"I just kind of peaked in there one day," she said of the coop. "We have lots and lots of scrap wood that's in decent shape. It's been stuff that's been taken down while remodeling over the years, like molding.
"I realized we had lots of old windows and old doors, too," Duerksen added.
The inspiration to use weathered window frames to accent bulletin boards came from a friend who had done it.
"I just asked her one day how she did it and she showed me," Duerksen said. "I decided we've got lots of windows, I could try that."
Duerksen altered her friend's approach by covering the cork bulletin-board area with decorative fabrics.
"I try to use choose themes, like sports teams or John Deere—stuff that might appeal to people," Duerksen said. Her favorite fabric so far has a horse theme.
"I've got a lot of different kinds of fabrics, hopefully coordinating with the different kids of windows," she added. "I've tried not to add any paint to the windows. I just want to clean them up and use them as they are."
Duerksen said she also will customize bulletin-board themes according to the interests of the customer.
"I'm glad to take orders because I know the people may want a different fabric than what I've chosen. There might be people who would say, 'Would you do an O.U. one?' I could do that."
Adding decorative doors to her inventory was a very recent decision.
"We have lots of old doors that I've gone ahead and painted," she said. "I'm doing a fall theme on one side of the door, mostly stenciling leaves—I don't do them freehand because I want them to look uniform.
"On the fall door it will say 'Happy Harvest.' I'll stencil that. Then on the reverse side, I'm doing a winter scene."
She said decorative doors can provide artistic flair for porches, gardens and yards.
Duerksen said she got the inspiration for the doors while driving through Hillsboro this summer during the city-wide garage sale day.
"I saw a lot of people were buying doors," she said. "A couple of the doors were really bright, but I thought I'd like to add something more to that than just paint. I'd like to add something that makes it fun for the garden or the yard, or whatever."
One thing Duerksen likes about the projects she's chosen is that almost all of her materials are being recycled—even the orange paint she's been using as the background color for her fall-themed doors.
"The orange paint we literally wanted to paint a room in our house," she said. "The first gallon I bought I was totally sold on, but I put some on the wall and said, 'That's a little much.' We had a gallon of it. So I'm recycling paint, too."
Duerksen, who grew up in Hillsboro, said she has attended every Arts & Crafts Fair since it started more 37 years ago. In fact, Saturday's will be the first one she's missed—unless she stops by "real early" on her way to Marion.
"I'm kind of a diehard Arts & Crafts Fair person," she admitted.
Duerksen also is a veteran browser at Art in the Park. She said she decided to investigate the possibility of exhibiting there because her decision was so late-notice—plus, she likes the environment that Central Park provides.
"I called them to see if it was an option and they were very encouraging," Duerksen said.
She said her years of browsing have helped prepare her to be a successful exhibitor—and seller.
"I guess I feel I have a good sense of what things should sell for, and I know what I've put into it cost-wise,"she said.
Her entry into the crafts market is an avocation. She works part-time as a private academic language therapist in area schools.
"I work with kids with dyslexia, or kids with reading, spelling and writing difficulties," Duerksen said.
Although her job requires a certain creativity to find and develop alternate ways for her clients to learn, Duerksen said she had an itch to do more with her creative interests.
"I just really noticed that I needed this outlet. I was attempting to do things with students which they need, but I don't have to embellish it much," she said. "You have to be creative with the language-therapy sort of thing, but you don't have to be this creative."
Duerksen said her family—husband Gary, daughter Olivia, 8, and son Zach, 3—has been supportive of her new venture and the hours it has demanded of her of late—almost every free minute, she said.
"They're really understanding—they're kind of living in squalor right now," Duerksen added with a chuckle. "A few things will have to be let go for another week yet, then I'll get back to it."
The pressure of Saturday's deadline hasn't dampened her enthusiasm for what Duerksen has undertaken.
"The good thing is I'm enjoying it yet," she said. "It's not a chore at all."

Thanks to Samuel for mentioning this great little animated short for Pattern.tv by Leandro Feuz with Javier Bravo.
Thanks to Samuel for mentioning this great little animated short for Pattern.tv by Leandro Feuz with Javier Bravo.
Ever since it was announced earlier this year that FOX was working on a Simpsons and Family Guy crossover hour-long special, fans of one or both shows have been interested to see how it would work. And yesterday they got their first glimpse when a five-minute excerpt was screened at Comic_Con which gives us a taste how these two cartoon competitors will be joined in creative matrimony. So it seems we can expect beer, bonding, brawls and bitchiness when the Griffins wind up in Springfield; consider our appetites well and truly whetted.
Simple story, this one. A man gets a new next door neighbour and watches her through a hole in the wall (don't try this at home, folks) and one day when she returns from a jog he gives her an ice lolly. Wanting to see her eat the lolly he looks through the hole but sees her instead dabbing it on her sweaty armpits. Enraged, he breaks into her house every day for the next few weeks when she's out and wrings out her clothes into a bottle to make sweat ice lollies from there-on out. You know someone's a consistently entertaining animator if the top comment on their Vimeo is: "Wow! you finally made something that is safe for work." Bravo Wong Ping, bravo!
To tell the truth, when I heard that Morph's creator was bringing him back around again for another go, I wanted to hate it. Being a true child of the 90s I feel like our little orange plasticine friend belongs solely to that era, and to attempt to bring him back for the soiled, desensitised, X-Box-obsessed youth of today is akin to animating Rosie & Jim and plonking them on a speedboat with a robot where the duck should be.
Self-initiated projects are the best, aren't they? I think of them as an excuse to peel the dollar signs off your eyeballs and replace them with love-hearts for a while, and more often than not it's a transaction that pays off a hundredfold in the long run.
There's nothing quite like when someone takes something you associate with your innocent childhood and uses it to slap you across the face with a controversial, dark statement. That's what Greenpeace tend to do to get their point across, and boy does it work. Their most recent plea is directed at LEGO, urging them to discontinue the production of kits for children that are emblazoned with the Shell logo. I've seen a lot of LEGO parodies in my time here at It's Nice That, but none have made me feel dark to my very core like this one did – nothing says wake up and address this horrible issue more than smiling children's toys drowning in a sea of black oil. Bravo Greenpeace.
Anyone that played (and now misses) Monument Valley will love this new animation from Fabrice Le Nezet. It was a bit weird to get an email from Fabrice with this animation, as last time we checked up on him he was making enormous sculptures of metal and stone. People change I guess. Anyway, what he's doing now with the help of Benjamin Mousquet and Raphael Azel Martinez is totally fine by us, as it's one of the most spectacular and unique animations we've seen in a very long while. Watch as teeny little men manoeuvre their way around a monochromatic, cubist landscape and get chased by enormous marbles and climb the infinite stairs of winding minarets. It isn't as weird as it sounds, but it is seriously impressive, enjoy.
There's no shortage of comics, books, films and radio programmes that deal with the subject of dystopian futures. If you believe the predictions of our greatest sci-fi auteurs, the distant future will be one in which governmental control is complete and our civil liberties and basic human rights lie in tatters; emotion, procreation and relaxation banned in favour of order and efficiency.
One of my favourite columns in the New York Times, apart from all of the important news bits of course, is Modern Love. While I've only been able to read the ones they publish online, it's still a fascinating glimmer into the absolute highs and desperate lows of love. The stories and the honesty within them are what make them so compelling and because love is so universal you can somehow connect with each author.
Whenever Tom Darracott and Carl Burgess join forces the results are spectacular. The two directors and digital specialists are experts at creating polished 3D-generated worlds that feel part computer game, part hyper-real dream – every element a slightly altered version of a recognisable, real-world object. Even when they're advertising clothes the pair produce unconventional results that delight and disorientate your eyes with their effortless surrealism. Their latest campaign for Loft is no exception, showing the brand's brightly coloured collection folding itself into a state of geometric order.
Of all of the areas of art and design that I write about on a daily basis, animation is probably the one that falls furthest from my realm of understanding. No matter how many behind-the-scenes pictures I stare open-mouthed at, or how many conversations I have about the hours that went into constructing one perfect shot, I'm absolutely torn between disbelief that anybody has the patience for such a meticulous process and relief that somebody has the right composure for it.
If you haven't yet found yourself clicking waywardly through to Patatap only to while away several hours idly composing beautiful melodies and weirdly syncopated rhythms when you were meant to be working towards that deadline, then frankly I don't know what you've been doing. We found the website a little while back, but little did we know at the time that it was created by the spectacular mind of Jono Brandel who was also responsible for Anitype, or that it would swiftly be used to create some incredibly elaborate pieces which spread like wildfire online.
I'm going to admit to a certain bias towards Nicos Livesey's latest animation before I say anything more about it. As a teenager every bag and garment I owned was plastered with patches that I'd picked up in Camden – or at a horrible little shop in my hometown called Tiger Lily – paying homage to any number of death metal bands I was obsessing over at the time (and some embarrassingly poor nu-metal ones too). I couldn't get enough of them. But in spite of this penchant for embroidered badges I'm going to go out on a limb and say that Tharsis Sleeps will appeal even to those who don't like to wear their bands on their sleeves.
Prolific Twitter gagsmith Pundamentalism Tweeted this morning: "I hope there will be some tweets about the World Cup – seems crazy that nobody is talking about it yet." Of course he was actually being a bit of a tinker because it seems like that's all anybody's talking about as we near the big kick-off in Brazil. Over the coming days we too will undoubtedly start to showcase some of the many creative projects inspired by the tournament, but we're going to start a little closer to home.

EFFINGHAM, Ill. - Another National Football League player finds himself in trouble with the law this off season.
Defensive back Donald Washington of the Kansas City Chiefs was arrested in Illinois last Thursday for going 88 miles per hour on a 65 mph highway seven miles west of here.
But that was only the start of his troubles. State troopers also cited Washington for driving under the influence of alcohol, possession of marijuana and driving on a suspended license.
Crushed pills found in Washington's car were sent to a laboratory for analysis. If they test positive as a controlled substance, additional charges could be filed.
Washington was released from jail on $20,000 bond after a brief court appearance Friday.
Washington, 25, was a fourth-round pick for the chiefs in 2009 out of Ohio State University. He was a standout player for Franklin Central High School in Indianapolis during his prep yers. He played in eight games for Kansas City last season.
Details for this story were provided by the Effingham, Ill., Daily News.

Richard Gast, Cornell Ag Connection
— Easter season is upon us. It's a time of joy and celebration, of religious significance, and of the promise of spring and the summer months ahead.
Perhaps the most widely shared symbol is the Easter lily, Lilium longiflorum, with its magnificent white flowers and fragrance.
It is said that lilies were found growing in the garden of Gethsemane, and that lovely white lilies grew where Jesus's blood, sweat and tears fell in the hours before his death. For Easter Sunday, many churches cover their altars with lilies to commemorate the Resurrection and remember loved ones who have passed away.
Easter lilies are the fourth largest crop in wholesale value in the U.S. potted-plant market. I find that remarkable when you consider they are sold for only two or three weeks each year. Poinsettias, mums and azaleas rank first, second and third. Widely grown Easter lily cultivars include Ace, Croft and the Estate variety, which can grow to be three feet tall. Nellie White, a popular cultivar that produces large trumpet-like flowers, was created by lily grower James White, who named the hybrid after his wife.
Easter lilies are native to the Ryukyu Islands of southern Japan and, prior to World War II, when commercial production shifted to the United States, the vast majority of potted Easter lily bulbs sold in the United States were imported from Japan. Today, the superior quality of U.S. bulbs is recognized around the world.
Bermuda was a center for production of Easter lilies from the 1850s until 1898, when a virus and nematode infestation wiped out the industry. In 1919, Louis Houghton brought the first hybrid Bermuda bulbs to the United States. They were planted along Oregon's southern seacoast.
Today, almost all the bulbs grown for the potted Easter lily market are produced on just 10 farms along the California-Oregon border. Every year, from late September through early October, these growers harvest roughly 12 million bulbs, which they ship to commercial greenhouses. The bulbs are then planted in pots and "forced" indoors to flower just in time for Easter.
In the home, Easter lilies prefer indirect, bright, natural light or filtered sunlight and moderately cool temperatures, no higher than 68 degrees. Keeping them cool at night (some horticulturalists recommend 40 to 50 degrees) will prolong the period of bloom. Removing the pollen-bearing anthers (the yellow tips) from the six stamens as soon as possible after the flowers open will help prolong bloom life since the flowers will not become pollinated. The soil should be kept moderately moist and well drained.
Easter lilies are not fully hardy here, but I have heard of them surviving to bloom successfully for many years after being replanted outdoors in sheltered settings (i.e. near the foundation of a house). If you would like to try to resurrect your Easter lilies outdoors, cut away declining blooms as they wither. Once the last bloom has been removed, place the plants in a sunny window and continue to water whenever the soil becomes slightly dry, being careful not to overwater. The leaves will yellow and die back.
Once the danger of frost has past, cut the stems back to within a few inches of the soil surface. Choose a protected, comparably sunny location for your garden bed and, making sure the roots remain spread out and down, transplant bulbs into the garden three to four inches below ground level in fairly rich, well-drained soil, leaving at least 12 to 18 inches between bulbs. Mound an additional inch or two of soil over the bulbs and water the bed thoroughly but carefully, so as not to disturb the soil or leave air pockets. With a little luck, you will soon begin to see new growth.
Occasionally, plants will produce a few flowers again in late summer or early fall. It's more likely that you will have to wait until the following summer.
Topping the soil with a thin layer of mulch will help keep the roots cool during a hot summer. You might plant a low ground cover of shallow-rooted annuals or perennials along with your lilies.
To overwinter bulbs, mulch the bed with straw, leaves or pine needles and remove the mulch carefully in the spring. You can also dig bulbs in fall and store them indoors. A cautionary note, Easter lilies are poisonous to cats.

I'm in love with Rock n' Roll, and the shit you play on the radio ain't it!

A good start: Go to Amazon and look up an awesome band - then see what other people have purchased that have purchased that band's CD. I've found a lot of good stuff this way.
I've seen a lot of really crappy shows, but the few that stood out usually have a good record label, and upon checking out other bands on that label: more good music!
Will it ever make it on the radio? Only at college stations probably at 2-4am.
Anyway - the music industry has a way of taking good bands and forcing them to suck in order to be marketable.
Fukk. That.

good rant, L.L. i hope The Zone's avoidance of douche-rock and promotion of local acts finds itself outside your frustration...? It's lame there's not a similar station in Winnepeg (where you're at?). I mean sure, we're going to play the popular music, minus the nickleback and sound-alikes, plus the odd off-beat song, i think it makes it really listenable for ALOT of rock lovers. For the true fans who live and breathe rock & roll and new music, we can't be your EVERYthing, but we'd sure love to be your base.
Believe me, i share your exact frustrations, i just love how the Zone makes the effort the skirt a bunch of them. Cuz we're Rock Lovers as well.

"programming (the people who play the music) view sales (the people who sell the air time for ads) as a necessary evil, while sales views programming as unnecessary"
Well put.
Radio is shit, and I've all but turned my back on "rock" radio. When I was back in Winnipeg, I caught myself preferring 103, which 10 years ago was my version of hell. I've given up.
And I totally remember seeing Airheads at the Towne one summer afternoon. Loved it.

I think CanCon can be hit or miss. I'm forced to hear Avril Lavigne every 35 minutes, and I'm forced to watch stupid Canadian commercials during the Superbowl.
It's great that CanCon wants to get Canadian content out there but they're going about it the wrong way. It's starting to become like a communist country and they're starting to force it down our throats.
If I don't want to listen to Avril or Simple Plan... I should be forced too.
And I agree with the other bands, like the good ones who can't get their music on the air because of the "popular" shit. I would love to her Graham's band on the radio when I'm driving home from work.
- March 22, 2009 at 2:27 PM
An interesting diatribe that has some truth but misses much of the complex nature of the topic.
Certainly some of your observations are true -- "radio does suck" -- but the reason is not the CRTC rules nor the bands that get music on rock stations, for example.
Most of your other observations ring false to my ear. You appear to place the blame on everyone except the listener. You nearly got it when you said "stations don't change when things work" and will therefore make more money from ad sales.
Listeners can turn the station off and the Book Numbers will drop. If that happens, the station WILL look for a new format and new music.
BTW - listen to older State of Shock recordings if you don't think the current one is rock'n roll. Oh, you never heard of it?? Hmm... never mind.

Anon - There are two types of music people. People who listen to music (the people who fuel radio book numbers) and music lovers. I think music lovers obviously have an appreciation for radio - no matter what people want to say, radio will never die. It may mutate but it won't die. But a lot of people listen to the radio are the people who listen to music - while they are driving, while they are at work, while they are doing something else and not appreciating what is being presented to them. So they follow along to what their played, and their taste in music reflects what the radio tells them is cool. Music fans will always FIND music. No matter where they look, and most of it won't be played on the radio. A lot of music these days doesn't fit into just rock, or just hip hop, or just dance. A lot of the best music blends styles, and it doesn't always work with what a radio station wants to play.
And by the way, I've not only heard State of Shock, I've SEEN them. And they suck.
And Pol - I spend a lot of time listening to stations online and I dig the Zone! There are some radio stations across this country that are doing great things, and I think you guys definitely try your damndest to do it well!
And Sharilyn, Wheeler told me that quote, although I know he was quoting someone else. I've never been able to forget it.

I think something that radio fails to see in the success of iTunes, Satellite and online music is, as you say, it's all about the advertising.
Much like newspapers and other companies trying to figure out a new model in the Internet age it's going to hit radio and they're going to scramble.
I guess more people will just have to openly jump away from radio and let them know exactly why before anything changes.
I do try and listen to hosts I enjoy (music aside) but I also find myself checking out new stuff on iTunes (the Genuis and such applications are like "Oats" talking about the suggestions on Amazon and also helpful).
I also needed to find something to keep me awake at night while doing overnights a few years back and had to really, really, really search for radio stations not playing the same syndicated programing or set lists.
One that has kept me as a listener is Y-Rock out of Philly. They went online and listener supported after their corporation flipped the station. They keep me one (or two) steps ahead of Canadian rock radio: http://www.xpn.org/yrock-on-xpn/home

I can't even bother with regular radio anymore... I stick to my Sirius.
And every once in awhile when I accidentally come across something from current music - it's either some sad, sad child in a band under the impression that it's rock, or someone using a robot voice.
(why kids, why does everyone love the robot voice?)

I want to get in on this!
Let me state outright... I'm a music lover, play music, make music...
"Rock n Roll" is a state of mind, a musical way to capture however a person feels... and by definition, emotions are highly personal.
Mainstream radio is abysmal at introducing new sounds - insanely important to music lovers - and new creative pathways into that emotional euphoria called...LABELED... "Rock n Roll"
Defining rock n roll is like defining love - it is rarely exactly like another person's definition. And good luck in telling somebody else their "love" just isn't as "good" as your "love".
(... mainstream radio is still shit though ... :) )

Foxy - I think you are me are on the same page here... when you have rock radio telling you what rock is, I think you get a very white washed understanding of it. Judging by a lot of rock radio stations, rock ended in the 90's because I can't go an hour without hearing Nirvana and Pearl Jam (both great bands, but c'mon).
If you let the radio tell you what rock is - you;ll never make that raw, emotional connection to the music because like you say, mainstream radio is shit.
I should also point out something - A friend of mine who I love dearly is a radio jock, and he felt like I was attacking the DJs in my blanket attack on radio. I think the DJs are the reason to keep listening to the radio because there are some amazingly talented people doing great work out there - but they don't get a say in what gets played. I don't blame the Dj. Far from it.

RALEIGH — Guards Matt Jones of DeSoto (Texas) High and Anthony Barber of Hampton (Va.) High, had special motivation as they took the floor Thursday for their first games in the Holiday Invitational.
Jones and Barber, two of the top-ranked senior basketball players in the nation, were playing in front of their future college coaches and also giving Triangle fans a sneak preview of things to come.
The 6-foot-4 Jones played first as Duke associate head coach Chris Collins watched from a chair in a line of college coaches under the basket at Broughtons Holliday Gymnasium. He actually was playing in front of three coaches who recruited him Collins, N.C. States Mark Gottfried and North Carolinas Roy Williams all among a large group of coaches to take in the abundance of college-caliber talent on hand for the tournament.
Jones and Barber both came away winners, setting up a head-to-head matchup in the semifinals of the Summit Hospitality bracket at 7:20 p.m. Friday.
Jones wanted to impress his future coach, as well as the other Triangle coaches who had shown an interest in him.
It felt great being recruited by them to be able to show them how much I had improved as a teammate and as a player individually, Jones said after scoring 17 points to help DeSoto stop Kinston 57-50.
Human nature, it did make it difficult (to not try too hard). I wanted to definitely show them I can play and can step in next year and contribute. But I promised my teammates I would play team ball. And I believe in them so that is what I did.
When the game started, I was just playing basketball.
DeSoto was up by just three points, 48-45, with 1 minute, 30 seconds to play against Kinston, the defending N.C. High School Athletic Association Class 2A champion. The ball was in Jones hands, and he drew a foul and went to the line and sank a pair of free throws to give the Eagles some breathing room.
Jones, rated the No. 36 player in the nation by ESPN.com, hit just four of 12 shots from the floor (1-for-3 from 3-point range), but he was 8-for-8 from the free-throw line and played sticky defense on the perimeter.
I didnt have a perfect game, he said. Overall, I felt like I did pretty good. I was competitive and finished strong at the basket. I definitely felt good about how I played and I have another chance tomorrow so I get to go out and prove myself again.
Barber played in the days final game, with Gottfried and several current Wolfpack players looking on.
Barber, a super-quick, explosive point guard who is rated the No. 14 player in the nation, scored 26 points, including six in overtime, as Hampton edged Waxhaw Cutherbertson 61-59.
He penetrated for shots and dish-offs and hit outside shots. At one point, Barber drove the lane and hit the floor hard after a foul at the feet of Gottfried, seated behind the basket.
Ive played in front of them before, Barber said of playing in front of a lot of N.C. State fans. It was cool. I was just playing my game.
Barber said he got a text from N.C. States Rodney Purvis, telling he would be at Holliday Gym.
We talk a lot, Barber said. That was cool.
But when it came time to play, Barber was ready. And not focusing on the crowd.
Every game is for us to play and not to worry about the fans, he said. I just to try and play my game and to win.
On the matchup with Jones, Barber knew that the Crabbers (8-0) would have to focus on the shooter.
I think we need to keep him from hitting 3s, Barber said. If we can slow him down, we have a good chance to win.
Another player with Triangle ties, forward Isaac Copeland of Miller School of Charlottesville, Va., took a similar approach to the highly charged atmosphere.
Copeland, a 6-8 junior from Raleigh who played at Ravenscroft last season, is being recruited by most ACC schools and said he has scholarship offers from N.C. State, Boston College and Virginia. He also said North Carolina and Duke have shown interest in him. Copeland has yet to commit.
Copeland scored 19 points and grabbed 12 rebounds in a 59-50 loss to High Point Christian in a first-round game in the Shavlik Randolph bracket.
Having coaches like that here is great, Copeland said. Its been pretty much like that all season, so I am getting used to it. Its definitely motivation coming into the game.
Its pretty hard [to block it out]. But after a few minutes, it goes out the window and you just play basketball.
In other action Thursday, Greensboro Dudley won the championship of the 4-team bracket with a 73-71 victory over Garner.
Dudley (7-4) built a 10-point lead in the second half, but had to hold off the scrappy Trojans (8-2), who tied the score at 64-64 with 1:16 left in the game. Dudley hit 7-of-7 free throws from that point on to win it.
We made a heck of a comeback in the second half, Garner coach Eddie Gray said. We just gave up too many easy second-chance baskets. I think if we had gotten the lead, [Dudley] may have gotten a little different mindset. They have an outstanding basketball team.
Indiana signee Noah Vonleh, a 6-foot-9 forward who is rated the No. 8 player in the nation by ESPN.com, scored 13 points as New Hampton (N.H.) topped Wilson Greenfield School 69-50.
In other games, Holly Springs edged Person 69-67 behind 17 points from Craig McDaniel and Leesville Road rolled past Goldsboro 61-46 as Brandon Staves had 16 points.
