Auburn looks like the SEC's best shot at having a team in this year's BCS championship game, which also would help the conference's chances of getting two teams into BCS bowls. And that translates to a lot of dollars for the conference.
Nick Fairley is a big part of Auburn's success on the field.
So should anyone really be surprised that the SEC chose not to suggest Auburn suspend its defensive headhunter for the blatant spearing in the back that was only the most egregious of several late hits he delivered to Georgia quarterback Aaron Murray?
Instead, the conference is handling the matter "internally with the institution." That means any disciplinary action is up to Gene Chizik, the same guy who during the fracas at the end of the game with the Dogs was stirring it up on the sideline and allowing Fairley and one of his assistant coaches to dance in celebration on the field.
Asked by The Macon Telegraph what he thought of the conference's inaction on the matter, UGA athletic director Greg McGarity said, "I probably better not comment on that. I need to stay away from that. I don't want to get into any type of trouble or conflict with the conference office."
Which is a diplomatic way of saying he thought the conference blew it.
I'll say one thing for Chizik: He's changed a lot of UGA fans' view of the so-called friendly rivalry between Georgia and Auburn, as Darrell Huckaby notes on the Dawbone site. Said Huckaby: "I think Gene Chizik has taken the friendly out of the rivalry forever — not because he played a player who most of the nation feels will eventually prevent the Tigers from being able to count the victory in their long and storied history, but because of the way he and his team conducted themselves throughout the contest and particularly at the end."
I'm sure Darrell will be bombarded with AU hate mail for that, as have any of us who've questioned any of the actions of Tiger players and coaches.
Speaking of which, has there ever been a more thin-skinned bunch than Auburn fans, who have been all over the blogosphere and talk shows the past few days trying to equate Bulldogs players running out on the field with Fairley's cheap shots and taunting?
I like the way MrSEC put it: "Auburn fans need to stop trying to defend the indefensible. As if a team dancing on someone's logo is reason enough to risk injuring someone. How incredibly stupid. … By defending Fairley's helmet-to-back shot, it makes it appear as though AU fans would defend anything and everything done by someone in navy [and] orange."
But I guess that's what comes from being perpetually the second-ranked program in your state thanks to the school over in Tuscaloosa.

Buckhead Dawg, six in a row? What on earth are you talking about?!
November 17th, 2010

Yeah huge SEC conspiracy going on here. I love how you think all Auburn fans are classless and all UGA fans are angels. Could you be more delusional?
November 17th, 2010
11:06 am
Nick got a flag for the obvious calls. Why must you carry this on so long? You are starting to sound like a UT or Bama fan with your whining. I thought UGA fans were way past this?
You won 4 of the last 5 games vs AU-be happy.
Is Aaron Murray hurt? Do you honestly believe it is Nick's intent to hurt him?
Give this a rest….
November 17th, 2010
11:07 am
i believe it 'went down' with the SEC exactly the way we all thought it would,,,unfortunately….
i'll say this, there's no way you can convince me now that the SEC, and the officiating crews ran by the SEC,don't have a little say in who they want to win ball games at the end of the season when there's a lot on the line in terms of the National Championship..
November 17th, 2010
11:07 am
I only wish Nick Fairley and Cam Newton woudl be around next season. They will not. One to the NFL, the other ruled ineligible, forced to the NFL, and will be cut when they realize spread offense quarterbacks donotmake good NFLers.
Good news it, this game will likely catch prime time status at Sanford next season, and you can bet your butt Aaron Murray and the Dawgs have ALREADY circled it.
But let's move on for now. We have some bugs to squash under the lights in 10 days!!!!
November 17th, 2010
11:07 am
Does anyone think that it is ironic that AU got jobbed by USC and the cheat Reggie B out of a chance at the National Championship. This time it looks like they might have jobbed themselves. You might have beat us, but we likely get to claim the win for ourselves….HaHAHAHAHA!!!! 'Bout time for another bon fire at the corner…

No, next question.

To my knowledge, we don't "get a win" if Auburn must forfeit theirs.

I dont think there is any team in the country who cares who Ga circles on their schedule next year ! Circle it highlite it , send fireworks off around it. Georgia will not be any better next year. No A.J Green and several departing early. Funnt to see all of the crying about Fairly coming from one of the MOST penalized teams in the country , not just this year but over the past few. Yes You , Ga fans look it up Ga is one of the top 5 most penalized teams in the country and you are pouting and making excuses for every loss. Any wonder why their fans are some of the most hated?
November 17th, 2010
11:19 am
I can handle the loss. I thought we were going to lose anyway which makes Fairley's behavior more puzzling. The dirty play and our response to it, ruined my favorite game of the season. I felt like I needed a shower after the game.

I think it is funny, It took what 5 yrs and a Georgia team that is really not good this yr for Auburn to finally get a win. If that makes you proud Auburn than go right ahead. In the end you are and will always be a second rate team in your own state. It took cheap hits on our QB and getting away with bullsh@t calls for you to get by us. When your prize defensive player started getting beat up he did what all Auburn does best he ran. Lets not mention the cheap punches thrown at the end of the game. lol how cowardly can a team be. You won't fight like men but you sure will run your mouth and run.

November 17th, 2010

The SEC officials, management, and Auburn all seem to be in on this. The punishment for Fairley is probably a slap on the back by Chizik, followed by the comment, "Keep up the good work!" I have developed a complete dislilke of Auburn. We know many of the Auburn students come from the state of Georgia because they couldn't get into UGA. That's a proven fact!!!
November 17th, 2010
11:31 am
Nobody really expected us to win the game which makes it even more hilarious that Auburn had to cheap shot and act like they did. There is no secret that Georgia is terrible this yr and to act like that was funny. No body makes excuses as to why we lost games GEORGIA SUCKS this yr no secret.

It's game on for next year, beotches!

It took a bad yr for the SEC and a lot of teams having to rebuild their programs for Auburn to finally do something for once. Lets not forget though Auburn has not beaten Bama yet, Has not beaten South Carolina for the SEC championship yet, so really Auburn has won nothing.
November 17th, 2010
11:37 am
I have watched several Auburn games this year. Nick Unfairley consistently tried to injure every opposing QB by pile driving them into the ground. This is the moron's MO. No one has mentioned that,during the UGA game, Unfairley hurt his own shoulder by driving Murray into the ground and landing half on Murray and half with his shoulder on the turf. That's what caused his shoulder injury. Look at the replay. Face it-the guy's a moron and is trying to capture NFL scouts attention quickly after wallowing around as a JUCO.
November 17th, 2010

umm, they won the SEC west last time I checked. What did UGA win?
November 17th, 2010

Well, either way, you're assuming that Cam Newton will be proven to have done something wrong. Things certainly don't look too good for him, but who the heck knows how the NCAA will decide.

It has taken 2 decades for you to get a couple of wins over Florida and you couldnt beat their worst team in 15 years. You went a decade without beating Tennessee so keep the attempts at insults coming as it only shows what you are: A "Homer"

12 UGA players get arrested……..silence from UGA fans.
UGA loses 6 games and won't go to a bowl…….blame Auburn.
November 17th, 2010

Bill you – you reference the Auburn coach on the sideline and suggest he behaved poorly because his mean nasty Auburn winners were putting a beatdown on the once mighty Dogs. If the D coach for Georgia spent more time halting opposing offensive schemes and not practicing his theatrical throat grabbing choke signs toward a kid on the field the Mutts might move out of the puberty stage. This is SEC football. Fairley made one late hit and likley after he snapped becuase of the cheap knee shots. I have never seen such cry baby whiners after a physcial beat down.
November 17th, 2010
11:43 am
UGA is a bottom tier football team that isn't going to a bowl game this year.
UGA hasn't gone undefeated in over 30 years.
November 17th, 2010
11:43 am
Joe the announcers during the game mentioned that coaches around the league have been complaining about Fairley doing this all season. The refs where even aware of the fact he does this. Fairley knows what he had done why do you think he ran like a coward and his coach kept him off the field cause they where scared he was going to get beat up. The guy could be a good player which makes it so sad.
November 17th, 2010

"on the once mighty Dogs."
The Dawgs have never been mighty. Well, mighty bad but that's it.

11:47 am
Game is over …. history!
Auburn beat us as they were the better team. Auburn outscored us 42-10 after the first qurter – we got blown away.
Auburn was more physical and UGA was out coached.
The on sides kick to open the second half spoke volumes of how the two coaches looked to win this game. Auburn forced the issue – UGA simply was playing the game and would manage accordingly.
Our defense stinks !
Let's get over it, Bill – this game is history. More embarrassing than this loss is losing to Colorado, getting beat in OT to a poor Florida team – (which just shows you how poor UGA really is this year), the arrests and the AD pimping his stuff in buckhead getting a dui.
This program needs a strong dose of discipline and I can't wait for a new batch of players to come in – consider it an honor and a priveledge to play college athletics – and act accordingly.
I really like Ray Goff – a great man – got the dogs to a 10-2 record – but proved to be a medicore head coach.
I like Jim Donnan – great eye for talent – built the program – just missed making it big at UGA trying to catch Tennessee and Florida – both top 10 programs – but UGA was inconsistent and underachieved at strange times.
Now for Richt – inherited great talent from Donnan – built on it – was competive up unitl 2005. We have not even sniffed the SEC East since then. It's called coaching folks – somethingis wrong with our program – and he is the Leader.
Richt is a very good man – and has proven to be very good coach – but has also proven to be mediocre. He went CEO and became hands off. OUr players are acting disrespectful and the lack of discipline is showing of the field. He lost the program – and UGA is 8th best in the SEC – with lesser talented teams beating us. 5-6 people!!
Richt will have next year – but we need to see something great – not good our of UGA in 2011.
This year has been a disaster – and it boils down to leadership, teaching and execution.
November 17th, 2010
11:50 am
This matter is well worth complaining about, but now, it is time to move on AND it is time for the players and coaches to mark this occasion and do something about it next year.
It seems as if the current and past coaching staffs have seldom been successful in defending honor. I mean, 3-18 against Florida speaks for itself.
November 17th, 2010
11:51 am
lol Auburn has not gone undefeated yet and if they do congrats you won in a yr when the SEC is weak. Losers lol ok. Let me see Auburn second rate team in their own state, Best player on Auburn is from where……….that's right Georgia and you had to pay for him lol. You can't even get guys from your own state to play at Auburn. Look in the NFL don't no one even remember who the hell came out of Auburn.
November 17th, 2010
11:52 am
In light of the story on Ben Jones suspension and UGA and Richt's agreement with the SEC to suspend him, the question should probably be, did anyone expect Auburn to take an objective look at Fairley? This might be nothing more than Auburn fighting with the SEC and the SEC saying 'ok'. Which doesn't surprise me at all. Oh well.. time to let it go… Karma's coming back to bite 'em soon, for sure.
November 17th, 2010
11:52 am
If neither the UGA coach nor AD have the guts to articulate just how heinous Fairley's actions were, how can we expect the team to develop and display the spirit necessary to win games against top tier opponents.
November 17th, 2010
11:53 am
After Cam jumps ship this year, what will Auburn have next year?
November 17th, 2010
11:54 am
"I think Gene Chizik has taken the friendly out of the rivalry forever…but because of the way he and his team conducted themselves throughout the contest and particularly at the end."
Pot, meet kettle…
Anybody remember the way Richt and UGA players and coaches "conducted" themselves in such a classy manner during the blackout back in 07? I seem to remember an out of control sideline at the end of the game with players dancing around like idiots, too.
The cheap shots by Fairley were certainly uncalled for, but for UGA to call Auburn classless for their conduct at the end is pretty hypocritical.
November 17th, 2010
11:55 am
@ Fred Dawg–Tell it like it is! I agree 100%.
November 17th, 2010
11:57 am
Let's make it FUN! If Fairley is out for the IRON BOWL, then the SC will have to suspend all the UGA players that rushed the field and more than 1/2 of the UGA O-line for throwing punches and Attacking Fairley.
Do you DAWGS want the rules to be EQUAL or just against a player you think was WRONG?
November 17th, 2010
12:05 pm
This is not about Fairley's hit on Murray. It's about his play the entire season. To put it simply Fairley plays to injure QBs. Don't believe me? Watch his games. It's his MO. I hope Fairley has his knees blown out vs Alabama.
November 17th, 2010
12:06 pm
I hoped they would suspend him but I didn't expect it. They should have taken a stand on his late hits starting with the Clemson game at the beginning of the season. The SEC needs to get better refs who will stop this type of behavior during the game. If they had ejected him from our game it would have sent a message since they didn't do it then I doubted the conference would step up and do it.
November 17th, 2010
12:09 pm
What team doesn't want to put out the the other teams QB? What D-lineman is not looking to Take the head off every QB he plays? If the D players gets a flag the coaches is mad, but likes that his player is trying to help his team.
Please ask David Pollack what his job was and what coaches told him.
Pollack is the only UGA player I want to hear from and I have heard not a FREAKING PEEP form him on this issue.
November 17th, 2010
12:10 pm
Well said, Dbalcer. No reason this league can't afford full time refs now.

Augusta city leaders say it's time to judge City Administrator Fred Russell's job performance.
As we first told you Tuesday, the performance of Russell was discussed in a closed door legal session.
Several Augusta Commissioners have been critical of Russell because they were not told, beforehand, that downtown Augusta was going to be designated a slum area.
Commissioners took no action after the legal session, but some are now pushing to require Russell to undergo a regular job evaluation.
"You know, department heads need to be evaluated. I believe the Administrator does, as well, so we do know what our goals are. If there is any dissatisfaction that comes out in evaluation and you work to improve upon that, so it's more open communication," says Commissioner Mary Davis.
Davis plans to propose holding evaluations for the City Administrator at the next week's committee meetings.

MADISON (WKOW) -- Just after midnight Tuesday, a 24-year-old male motorist was exiting onto southbound Verona Road from the eastbound Beltline when he passed an oncoming vehicle traveling northbound on Verona Road.
The man though he heard a stone strike his vehicle, then discovered there was a bullet hole in the rear driver's side door.
No one was hurt. The suspect vehicle is described as a white sedan.
Victim appears to be a random target at this time.
The investigation is ongoing.

There's this one story I heard as a teenager – a guy had fast food french fries on the floor mat in the back seat of his car and he just decided to leave them there awhile. I don't know why seven years went by without this guy cleaning out his car, but it did, and the fast food french fries looked exactly the same after all those years.
I don't know the origin of the story or where I read it or saw it. It's something that's stuck with me for years. I can't place the last time I ordered french fries from that particular fast food place, but it's been a very long time, at least five years or so. I can't stomach them, probably because of that one story I read or heard that one time.
I've been reading "Folks This Ain't Normal" by Joel Salatin for the past week or so – very interesting, funny and thought-provoking. In his chapter "No Compost, No Digestion," Salatin wrote, "We as people can only be as vibrant as the vitality in the food we've decomposed in our digestive system."
Salatin shares a story he heard from some conference attendee who told him he had a burger museum in his house – he bought a burger every year for twenty years and they all still look the same.
Now that's right up there with the french fry story. There go fast food hamburgers.
The concept of real food as food capable of decay is troubling to me for two reasons.
First off – I know it's true. Every week I throw out fridge foods I didn't use in time.
Secondly – Many of those foods that decayed in my fridge or pantry could have been consumed before they went bad. However, I fed myself processed foods, "plastic" foods, foods that come in boxes with a list of ingredients six-inches long in size six font that carry an expiration date so far in the future I wonder how many wrinkles I'll have by then.
My body mustn't thrive with those processed foods. Sometimes I personify my stomach and impersonate its complaints – "Macaroni and cheese from a box? Guess you're okay with funky food science ingredients and virtually no nutritional value."
"Jelly beans?!? I don't even know what to do with this!"
I am an advocate for real food consumption, but I certainly stumble in this regard quite often (if not daily).
Typically it's laziness that influences the bad choice. I have bags of root vegetables in my pantry that are Maine-grown and packed with nutrients, but I opt for something quick-to-make and that requires virtually no preparation.
Meanwhile, the real food decays, right where it sits and in a reasonable amount of time, just like things filled with life that have been cut off from their source are supposed to do.
Every day is a challenge – to say 'no' to convenience and 'yes' to the right choice, to admit – fully, finally – that fruit snacks are not a form of fruit, and to gravitate steadily towards real foods that are one ingredient (carrots! beets!) or a collection of easily-identifiable ingredients.
My struggles to date do not negate the impact of the 'Real food that decays' challenge. Even though my stomach is filled with unnatural, uncompostible things at the moment, I still have the opportunity to make a good choice for my next meal.
Something that I couldn't save for the next generation, uncovered on a dusty shelf, watching the world change as it remains, unreal.

Will the middle east and other third world conflicts ever get resolved?
Since we can remember, since time immemorial.. Men have fought other men. For land, water, air, food, oil, ambitions and sometimes for sheer want of it. For centuries we went by the "Powerful rules the weak" way of things. and then we said enough and we moved towards world peace and democracy and United Nations. But whom are we fooling? We are pretty much where we were centuries ago? The definitions have changed a little though. The powerful today are the wealthy clan. Their poor brethren, make the weak. And the rest, you know the story. Does that mean it is inherent in us to be in a state of constant unrest? Does that imply that complete world harmony, and by harmony i don't mean the one that exists between nations but between humans, is implausible? Does that also imply that the human race will either feel the need to establish itself as superior or will have to fight for its sovereignty and integrity and honor? And if it is in our genes to battle, will it ever be enough to send delegations across the border or sip coffee at round table conferences and non alignment treaties? The world doesn't need its political system altered and corrected. What the world rather needs is a humanitarian system of looking at things. We don't teach that in schools today. I wonder why? We are so conditioned to hatred that we lose the ability to think with reasoning. Who will teach us that? We need to think about it. Each one of us, don't we? Only then can we raise a finger and say, our politicians need to change. After all they are one of us. Share your thoughts on the matter please!

Sep 24 2013: Let me concentrate only on the Middle East and the North African region where most of the inhabitants are Muslims.
The conflict and violence, mostly happened between Muslims themselves because of differing ethnic groups, but even more so among several different branches of the Islam religion. For example, there have been constant conflicts between the Sunnis and the Shiites, but also among the governments and Taliban, Al Qaeda or other Jihadist organizations.
The root cause of this senseless killing , mostly on the innocent civilians or bystanders, is the education systems in the region are almost always controlled by the religious leaders with the silent consent of the government administrators. As a matter of fact, in some of the countries, even the governments are controlled by the religious leaders, and in others the religious fanatics could openly kill, maim advocates of liberal education openly on the streets without too much of interference by the local police. What they teach in these schools are just twisted or distorted rules of the Koran and the schools are becoming the incubators of extremism and violence based on hatred at the so-called infidels.( include the Christians, Jews, Hindus, or any non religious believers and all, and even some fellow Muslims!) The result of such education system is that most of the young and old generations in these countries are either the extremists, or at least are accustomed to such behavior and feel no alarm or awareness of their neighbors or friends with such attitude or behavior.
The solution is quite obvious, but very difficult to implement. The governments there, are simply not amenable to any basic change to religious-free education. And since most of the chaos and violence happens within each individual countries, outside interference is not politically justified or "legally" allowed or accepted.
Sep 24 2013: Dear friend I think the main solution is increasing the number of wise people. And to do it, increasing the investment on people not only industry. Increasing the education with science and maths and literature and also, increasing knowledge about humanity, religion, love and mercy.
I do recommend you to watch this video. It displays the need of wisdom.
Sep 23 2013: May be yes. But it needs to all countries (important or not so important) deeply engage in the task of finding peace and make an effort to it. Today, it seems this effort is only possible when it suits the interests of each one.
I see no reason why, if countries wish, they can get it.
And, in addition, don't forget that countries are composed with people. And people, vote.
Sep 23 2013: Only the dead have seen the end of war.
As long as there are limited resources to compete over, and various idiots willing to instigate conflicts over less rational reasons (like a difference of religion), we'll have conflict. The first is enforced by physics, the second, by human stupidity; I'm not sure which is the harder of the two to resolve...

Louisville – It is a fun time for all when the 28th Annual Kentucky Derby Festival Ramble for the Roses gets underway in Iroquois Park on Tuesday, April 30th. Metro Council members encourage the public to come out and have some fun and enjoy Derby time in Metro Louisville.
"The Ramble is something young and old alike have enjoyed for almost three decades," says Councilman Dan Johnson (D-21). "It is an opportunity to showcase the beauty of Iroquois Park."
The Ramble for the Roses, first held in 1986 by Holy Rosary Academy, features a non-competitive 5K run/walk through beautiful Iroquois Park. The walk begins and ends at the Ramble Mini-Festival, located next to the playground and tennis courts off New Cut Road. The Walk/Fun Run will begin at 6 pm. The mini-festival and cookout will take place from 4-8 pm.
"This is a big year for the Iroquois Amphitheater as we celebrate its 75th year in operation," says Councilwoman Marianne Butler (D-15). "The Ramble is just one of many events we have going on this spring and summer."
"The Ramble for the Roses is the premiere Kentucky Derby Festival event for South Louisville," says Councilwoman Vicki Aubrey Welch (D-13). "This is one of the best ways the Metro Council builds community spirit and with so much going on in this area it is another investment in the success of the Iroquois Amphitheater."
Councilmembers are providing $14,750 in Neighborhood Development Funds to Metro Parks to help offset the cost of the Ramble. Joining Johnson, Welch and Butler as sponsor s are Council members Rick Blackwell (D-12), Cindi Fowler (D-14), Attica Scott (D-1), Jim King (D-10), David James (D-6) and Madonna Flood (D-24).
"If you walk for enjoyment or just want to come out and get into the Spirit of the Kentucky Derby, then come out and enjoy yourself with the Ramble for the Roses," says Councilman David Yates (D-25)

This team is in bad shape but it is not unfixable
Posted 05/07/2013 1:22 AM
I think the key here is to figure out what Mozgov would be willing to accept as his role were he to move from Denver. Does he want to start or will he just be happy to come off the bench and provide cover to the starting C that Olshey goes after via trade. I still think we could make a move to grab Thornton and Jason Thompson from Sacramento if we package our 10th pick and one 2nd rounder with Meyers and Babbitt and Freeland. The Kings can waive Babbitt anyway and they would have a young replacement in Leonard for Thompson. They need an upgrade and while i would like for us to somehow give JJ Hickson back to them and let him go somewhere that he will get gametime, I dont see that happening.
I personally would prefer if we kept the pick and drafted CJ McCollum, but getting Thornton is an idea that appeals to me a bit more. That leaves us in a situation where we have 2 solid bench players and some cap room to go after Mozgov or Dalambert and still sign Jermaine O'neal.
Posted 05/07/2013 8:48 AM
Cailin Babbitt is no longer under contract so to trade him would require a sign and trade and thus requiring the Kings to keep him. Freeland is another bad contract.
Cousins is the Kings Center so having another center as the key to trading off two of their best players does not make any sense. The number 10 pick might get Thompson or it might get Thornton but not both.
Posted 05/07/2013 5:22 PM
Yeah I dont think we can get both
Posted 05/07/2013 5:42 PM
Not sure thorton either with out give up Matthews or Batum
Posted 05/07/2013 7:01 PM
I dont see why they would keep Thorton and Evans but its the Kings so you never know
Posted 05/07/2013 9:56 PM
I'm sorry but if Mozgov is the best we get something went wrong... seriously wrong.
Posted 05/08/2013 5:02 AM
My bad, I forgot that Babbitt would be out of contract. I think the 10th pick should be kept and we should try to manufacture a move for Thornton. The kings are guard heavy so I think they may just want to make a trade for Freeland and 2 second round picks. They would save a bunch of money and may be able to get more out of Joel than we could.
Posted 05/08/2013 10:18 AM
The Kings are 18 million under the cap they do not need to save money, unless it is sticking someone with Salmons contract.
Posted 05/08/2013 10:29 AM
Posted 05/08/2013 10:40 AM
They also are no longer owned by the Maloofs.
Posted 05/10/2013 5:41 AM
Well, regardless of who owns them next year, I feel that they would be looking to start fresh. If they dont want to lose Thornton they may decide not to match an offer made for Tyreke Evans. Evans is a versatile player who can play both guard spots and has the ability to run an offense when Lillard sits on the bench.
Im thinking that Evans and Matthews could be our SG combo. Evans attacks the basket and can pass better than most SG in the league. His size is also an asset because at 6'6 he can legitimately guard any of the guards we may come up against.
Posted 05/11/2013 8:52 PM
Phoenix will not give up their 2014 pick, it's the best draft since 03.
Posted 05/11/2013 9:31 PM
evans doesn't like playing off the bench he pretty much made that clear in sac
Posted 05/11/2013 10:42 PM
Posted 05/12/2013 9:13 AM
yea thats the only way it would work out

LAWRENCEVILLE -- With community leaders in talks with developers, officials put off for a month a decision on changes to the planned development around the Gwinnett Braves stadium.
On Wednesday, the Gwinnett Planning Commission tabled until April 3 two controversial ideas for the once highly praised plans for a mixed-use development around the stadium, located along Ga. Highway 20 between Old Peachtree and Rock Springs roads.
With the economic recession, the development stalled and land owners now hope to change the plans, adding more apartments and decreasing the amount of commercial space.
In a community meeting last week, area resident Paula Hastings said she was concerned the standards would drop and the development would become "apartment city."
Leaders are expecting a large community turnout at the April 3 Planning Commission meeting as well as the April 24 Board of Commissioners session, where a final decision could be made.

Carlos Gonzalez hits home runs in three straight at-bats to lead Rockies
DENVER -- Carlos Gonzalez's swing appears effortless. The results have been smashing.Gonzalez extended a power surge by hitting three home runs in his last three at-bats, Michael Cuddyer belted a grand slam and Dexter Fowler also homered, leading the Colorado Rockies past the Houston Astros 13-5 on Wednesday night for their third win in a row."All I've been doing is trying to put good swings on the ball," Gonzalez said. "Obviously, I'm not looking for a home run. I'm just looking to hit the ball hard and just make sure it's in the strike zone. I saw three around the strike zone and put a good swing on them. Home runs just happen. I think special nights are just meant to be."He's been awfully special at the plate lately, going 10 for 16 with five home runs, seven RBIs and six runs scored in his past four games. He has 13 homers on the season."His focus at the plate right now, his plate discipline, is as good as I've ever seen it," Rockies manager Jim Tracy said. "He's stepping to another level, that's how dangerous he is."The game was not without some concern for the Rockies, however. Star shortstop Troy Tulowitzki left the game in the top of the seventh with what the team said was a strained left groin. Tulowitzki appeared a little gimpy as he returned to the dugout after running out an infield groundout in the bottom of the sixth."We don't know anything more than just that. We just have to wait and see to what extent," Tracy said of the injury to Tulowitzki, who was scheduled to be re-evaluated on Thursday.Gonzalez said he just wants to see Tulowitzki get healthy as soon as he can."I just want him to be healthy and get right and we all believe he's going to be even better," Gonzalez said. "He's showing signs that he's going to contribute a lot to this team, and I know he's going to do a lot of damage and help the team when he gets back."Gonzalez did much of the damage against the Astros, breaking a 5-5 tie with a solo shot leading off the fifth off Lucas Harrell (4-4)."He is a good hitter. If you leave something out over the plate, he's going to hit it hard," Harrell said.Gonzalez added a two-run drive off reliever Xavier Cedeno as part of a six-run sixth and then had another solo shot, driving the first offering from David Carpenter into the right field seats in the bottom of the eighth inning.It was Gonzalez's first career three-homer game. He has had four multihomer games this season and eight in his career.Cuddyer connected in the first inning on the first pitch he saw from Harrell for his seventh career slam and second this season, but it had to survive a replay review by the umpires after a fan reached over the right field railing to catch the ball. The replay showed the ball had cleared the yellow boundary marker atop the right field scoreboard before being caught.Fowler, who had a game-ending RBI triple among his team record-tying seven hits in Monday's doubleheader sweep of Houston, doubled and scored in the second inning and had a three-run homer off reliever Rhiner Cruz in the sixth for his career-high eighth home run of the season."The home runs were the difference," Astros manager Brad Mills said. "Five home runs with the first being a grand slam. We battled back and had a lot of hits. But they won it. They got the five homers."Harrell, who outdueled the Dodgers' Clayton Kershaw in a 3-1 victory last time out, gave up a career-high nine runs on 10 hits in five innings. He struck out four and walked three.Christian Friedrich (3-1) allowed five runs on 11 hits in six innings, shaking off a rough third inning in which the Astros scored four runs.Chris Snyder had a two-run double, Chris Johnson had a sacrifice fly and Justin Maxwell added an RBI single as the Astros pulled into a 5-5 tie. But Houston couldn't sustain the momentum, losing its fifth in a row and its sixth straight to the Rockies at Coors Field.The Rockies' run total was the highest allowed by the Astros this season, surpassing the previous high of nine, which the Astros had done twice this season, most recently in a 9-7 loss to Colorado in the opener of Monday's doubleheader.
Game notes
Prior to the game, the Rockies designated LHP Jamie Moyer for assignment and recalled pitcher Carlos Torres from Triple-A Colorado Springs. The Rockies have 10 days to trade or release the 49-year-old Moyer, who became the oldest pitcher to win as a starter when he beat the San Diego Padres on April 17. ... The Astros send RHP Bud Norris (5-1) against Colorado's Jeremy Guthrie (2-3) in Thursday's finale of the four-game series. Norris has gone 4-0 with a major-league low 1.17 ERA in five previous starts during May. ... Cuddyer has two of the Rockies' four grand slams this season. He hit his first on May 5 against Atlanta.

In classrooms at William C. March Middle School this week, students bantered with their teachers about why their answers to math problems were right, while others diligently scribbled in their notebooks.
They acted out scenarios of bullying and discussed the toll it could take on their peers.
They reflected on the past school year, vowing they wouldn't have another like it again.
For most of the middle-schoolers who spent five weeks of their summer working toward being promoted to the next grade, the interactions reflected a level of engagement they had failed to achieve all school year.
The Building Educated Leaders for Life summer program is showing promising results for Baltimore's most challenging student population, according to the data and the officials who run it.
"These were the kids during the school year who were causing mayhem, and we don't play that here," said Damon Johnson, who runs the program at William C. March, one of two operating this summer. "We have kids who are parents, who have charges and have to come to school with the ankle bracelet monitors on, kids who are 18 in the eighth grade. But they're here, and they're learning."
For the past three years, BELL has tailored its nationally acclaimed extended-learning model to a summer program for city middle-schoolers who were recommended to be held back a grade. This year, 480 students whose families enrolled them attended the programs, which ended Friday.
Since the city partnered with the organization for middle-school promotion, the percentage of middle-school students moving on to the next grade has improved significantly, according to school system data. In 2010, about 29 percent of the city's sixth-graders attending a summer school program were promoted to the next grade; in 2012, 83 percent were.
BELL's report card in Baltimore, based on pre- and post-Stanford Diagnostic assessments last year, shows that all of the students enrolled in its programs gained the equivalent of 9.5 months of skills in literacy and 11 months' worth in math. Students also moved from the 31st percentile in reading to the 44th, and from the 14th percentile in math to the 26th.
The program's operators said that while those results also included elementary students' performance, they are driven by middle-school gains. They expect the same results this year.
At BELL, students are known as "scholars" and are educated in single-sex classrooms of no more than 22 children, which are staffed by at least one teacher and one assistant. Johnson chose a balanced staff of men and women.
"It doesn't even feel like summer school," said De'Aysa Dezurn, who rattled off all of the tests she passed to move up to eighth grade. "It's just a different experience. You think you're just going to do work all day because you're dumb, you've failed. But we actually get to talk to our teachers about what we're doing, and it's fun. It feels like home school."
BELL has operated in Baltimore's low-income communities since 2005, offering after-school programs and expanding to summer learning in 2007. The 20-year-old nonprofit also serves students in the District of Columbia, New York, California, Michigan and South Carolina.
Its model has been recognized for deterring summer learning loss.
Officials with the Baltimore school system, which overhauled its summer programs in 2010, said they partnered with BELL for middle-school promotion because of its unique approach to not only help students with their academic deficiencies, but also the social barriers the face.
The program also fit into the district's emphasis on supporting failing students in its new promotion and retention policies.
Crystal Brice, the district's coordinator for extended-learning programs, said this approach was particularly crucial for middle school students.
"Those three years are critical, and when we looked at the data, we needed to address the number of students who were retained there, and what kind of supports they needed," Brice said. "And not having a program that seems so punitive is very critical in those adolescent years. We wanted to create a place that improved their academic skills, and also build their social skills that are so vital to their success."
Johnson said many of the students who come to the program need extra doses of high standards, support and structure.
Some students said that the program gave them what they yearned for during the school year.

VISTA, Calif. (AP) — Bail has been set at $2 million each for an Oceanside couple charged with turning a Mexican girl into a sex slave.
U-T San Diego says bail was set Monday for Inez Martinez Garcia and Marcial Garcia Hernandez. They didn't enter pleas at the hearing and remain jailed Tuesday.
Prosecutors charge that the couple got a 12-year-old Mexican relative to live with them in 2001 after promising she would receive education and a better life.
Instead, authorities claim the girl was forced to care for the couple's three children, beaten, raped and sold for sex.
She eventually was removed from the home and returned to Mexico. Now an adult, she came forward 2 ½ years ago with details of the alleged abuse.

JAMAICA Police identified a 20-year-old Windham woman was killed on Monday in a two-car crash on Route 30 in Jamaica.

Are people with learning disabilities dying unnecessarily because of poor care in the NHS?
Listen now 38 mins
Sun 11 Nov 2012 17:00 BBC Radio 4
Britain has 1.5 million people with learning difficulties, and the number is growing. Campaigners say the health service is struggling to cope: the number of specialist nurses is falling, and though extra support is supposed to be available for this vulnerable group, hospitals and other health facilities often struggle even to identify them.
Families say their relatives have been left to die in pain - and in some cases people who were not dying have had 'do not resuscitate' orders placed on their notes without being told. The learning disabled are more likely to be ill, more likely to be obese or underweight and more likely to die prematurely. And with health service cuts starting to bite, are things set to get worse? Fran Abrams reports.
Producer: Gail Champion.

Sure it's an away game, a pretty crummy song all things considered, and a song of relative obscurity, but I'm left only to believe that people hate the tradition of jumping in the stands. That's too bad. I like jumping in the stands. Oh well. It had a nice run. "Winkie" ;)

#bidenatcostco VP Pool Report, Because It Really Happened
——- Original Message ——-
From: Lesley Clark
Sent: Thursday, November 29, 2012 10:36 AM
To: Allen, Liz
Subject: VP pool report 4
Motorcade rolled from Costco at 10:12 am, w VP stopping to talk toreporters after wheeling a cart filled w among other things, childrens' books, fire logs, a 32 inch Panasonic tv and a big apple pie to the registers.
He called on congress to extend bush era middle class tax cuts, saying that "consumer confidence is growing, the last thing we need to do is dash that."
He said that he'd talked to people around the store a that "all the people u meet and see… Folks don't need to see their taxes go up."
He said "it's important congress acts now, right now."
Unknown if he bought a watch, though he spent considerable time at the counter looking at them, including a $1,200 one, and put in a call to his daughter, Ashley, saying he needed to "get some guidance."
Before leaving, he placed a call on Ivey Stewart's phone. Couldn't hear what he said, but she broke into tears and got a vice presidential hand on the shoulder and a hug.
Biden also availed himself of several Costco food samples, and looked like he enjoyed them.
The store was clogged w shoppers who whipped out cells and iPhones to snap the VP.
There were lots if Delaware natives in the store who got giant Biden hugs and handshakes.
He did a loop of nearly the entire store, including bakery and frozen foods.
But Biden turned down the employees who were trying to lure him to the tire department.
"Hey man I don't need tires," he said "I don't drive anymore."
Back at WH at 10:30 w/o incident. [Ed. note: I am guessing the WH has a pretty low bar for "without incident" when it comes to Joe.]
Per WH official: On background:
The Bidens have been Costco members in the past. The Vice President and Dr. Biden's Costco memberships were re-activated yesterday; they paid the $55 membership re-activation fee to receive their new cards. The Vice President received his own card which he is carrying today while shopping at Costco.

Narrow your search
LG, Panasonic, Samsung and more have found themselves in hot water over cathode ray tube price fixing for TVs and monitors.
With a new type of battery cathode, Envia says its lithium ion batteries can extend the range of electric vehicles and lower the costs. Investor GM is already testing them.
The glossy orange 14-inch set doesn't just look it belongs in a living room on "That '70s Show"; it uses trusty old cathode ray tube technology.
Vu1 has another idea for efficient lighting: Based on cathode ray technology, its UL-certified lightbulbs put out similar light to incandescents but use less energy and don't contain mercury.
Power Japan Plus announced its dual carbon battery technology, which promises longer-lasting and less expensive batteries for electric cars.
European regulators impose massive penalties on a series of TV and display makers for "cartel" activity affecting now-outmoded CRT products.
In a complicated swapping of a stake in a joint venture with convertible preferred shares, Samsung plans to acquire a piece of Corning.
A lithium ion micro-battery out of the University of Illinois is just millimeters in size, can jump-start a car battery, and recharges in less than a second. It's not ready for market just yet, though.
About 17,000 children are admitted to the emergency room each year as a result of TVs falling on them, a recent study found. Larry Magid talks with Ryan Hagberg of Sanus about the dangers and some ways to reduce risk.

Mid-Week Activities centered around...
Self-Esteem - "I brought
the girls downstairs to my television room and we had popcorn and soda and I
had them watch a video of "Johnny Lingo" that the church has out on tape. I
didn't tell them what they were going to watch, and asked them not to talk
during the film. Afterwards we gathered back together upstairs, and talked
about what we thought the movie was about. Some had some insightful ideas, and
questions about the facts of the story, and the moral to be learned. Then we
talked about self-esteem and whether or not other people influence how we feel
about ourselves and what we might be able to do about that. We talked about the
fact that beauty is what is inside not just the outside of ourselves. We talked
about how to treat both ourselves and other people too. Then for a concluding
craft, we had small mirrors that we made fun foam frames for and decorated with
sequins. So that they would be able to look at themselves and reflect on their
self-esteem. It was a very successful time and the girls really seemed to enjoy
it." (Idea by Carisa Barnett) ALSO: Here is an invitation idea
YW Connection (check out the link...it
has more great ideas).
(This is
part of the invitation)
Find out the
answers to some of these questions!
Pretty in Pink - The leaders and class presidency plan a three-week event to help the girls learn to love each girl in the class and to make new friends within the class. The Pretty in Pink kick-off is a motivational and inspiring evening where everything is done in pink. First have the young women read two scriptures: John 15: 9, 12 and Matthew 25:40. Then watch the video called The Award. Explain the Pretty in Pink program to all the girls. The young women choose out of a pink basket a pink plastic egg that has a name of one of the girls in the class inside. That girl would become her special friend for one week. The girls are given a calendar of the month with ideas of things they could do together listed for each week or they cane make up their own ideas. The only requirement is that they do something! Give the girls a bookmark to use all month to remind them to make their new friends a part of their life. Serve pink cake and pink raspberry frappe. The next week at Mutual the girls choose another name. Use a small card with the words This week will be MOUNDS of fun with your new friend __________. Wrap a fun-size Mounds candy bar in pink cellophane. The next week they choose another name. At the end of the third week, host a Pretty in Pink Ending Party. Share the scripture John 15:13 and show the video The Last Leaf. Each girl should come prepared to spotlight her three new friends by telling all the things she learned about them. Once again, all pink refreshments must be served. It is a great bonding exercise for the whole class.
Water Olympics - Several stations are set and the youth are divided into groups and rotated into each station to play water games. Of course the evening ends in a giant water fight. Some examples of the stations are: volleyball with teams holding a sheet or towel to toss the big water balloon back and forth over the net; transporting youth in a wheel barrow to a chair to a chair in a team relay race where they must pop a water balloon by sitting on it; pouring a cup of water into another cup of water over your shoulder to the person behind you without looking. Continue this relay down the line of your team to see which team can get the most water in a bucket at the end of the line. Other relay races are: water balloon between the knees, water balloon toss, anything that is wet is fun!
Thats Entertainment! - Decorate with red, black and white balloons. Make black cardboard top hats for the tables. Serve simple appetizers and 7-up. Show video clips that have been taken throughout the year of the young men and young women. Choose a few categories and make Academy Awards by spray-painting kewpie dolls gold and attaching them to a wood base.
Getting to Know You - If you would like to get to know the young women better and help them get to know each other, try this one. The young women rotate to three different rooms: first, this room has baby pictures of the young women and everyone has to guess who they are; the second room has a young woman trivia game where you have to guess which young woman did the crazy or exciting things from stories that leaders have collected from parents and siblings; the third room has all kinds of hearts for the girls to write notes of appreciation to their leaders (or their previous leaders if this is a new presidency). Everyone meets together at the end and tell the girls the answers to the games.
Understanding the Limitations of a Handicap - Young women rotate to different rooms where they experience or try to experience different handicaps. 1) wheelchair obstacle course (timed while open/shut door, pick things up, write on board, etc.); 2) learn sign languagesomeone teaches the girls to sign a song (no one can talk in the room); 3) blindfold obstacle coursehave to step up on item like the curb using a stick to guide, get around furniture, etc.); 4) race and other activities using a walker, cane, and crutches. End the activity by having a woman who works with handicapped children talk to the girls about the value of each and every person regardless of appearance, etc. If possible have handicapped youth there to share some experiences and answer questions.
