Quad Cities Mural Project
June 26, 2013
More than a dozen young people are trying to dress up an eyesore in downtown Davenport. Members of the Quad City Arts Metro Arts Summer Youth Program are painting a mural at the intersection of 5th and Harrison streets.
Augustana College freshman, Jillian Jesperson, helped design the mural. She says when it's all done, people will see a large octopus along the wall holding a pencil in one of its tentacles.
"It's an awkward little animal," said Jesperson about the octopus. "Its's pretty much someone new to the city who feels uncomfortable where they are. And we're trying to convey the message that by coming into Davenport, you can create your home here, like you can draw yourself a place to live here."
Sarah Robb has been the lead artist of the annual summer mural project for seven years, and thinks the project teaches young people how to create art on a large scale.
Plus, she says, it's a great benefit to the city.
"I personally think what it adds to the community is, it sounds so cheesy when I say it but, a bit of color, a bit of life," said Robb. "I love the idea that it's not only for the traffic, people passing through, especially this location at 5th and Harrison where thousands of people, I can't even believe how many people this is going to reach, but also pedestrians. It's just something beautiful to look at. The whole beautification of our area."
The group works on the mural Monday through Thursday and their deadline to finish is July 12th.
The mural is part of the Metro Arts Summer Youth Employment Program which employs 42 artists, ages 15 to 21 this summer. The other projects focus on the visual and performing arts. All will be showcased on July 11th.

Turn chicken enchiladas into finger food! by making Chicken Enchilada Puffs!
You may have noticed, we love cooking food that is easy to make and doesn't require hours spent slaving over a hot stove. Take it one step better, and make food that's easy to eat with your fingers and my family is in heaven. You can't beat food you can eat with your fingers. This recipe takes something as good as chicken enchiladas and turns them into finger food! These were perfect for dinner, by using the jumbo size crescent rolls. But they would make great party appetizers by using the smaller size crescent rolls. – either way, you put them together just the same.
You can mix up your seasonings…….use enchilada sauce mix and enchilada sauce, or taco. I happened to have enchilada mix and taco sauce, so that's what I used this time.
Mix cheeses, enchilada seasoning mix , sauce and chicken in a bowl. Line cookie sheet with foil and spray with no-stick spray. unroll crescents and lay on pan add one heaping tablespoon of chicken mix, near the center of the two short ends fold short ends over chicken fold long end over and under, bringing it up on other side (fold or twist any extra dough on top) sprinkle with additional shredded cheese bake for 15 minutes at 375°
Summary: This recipe takes something as good as chicken enchiladas and turns them into finger food!
- 1 package jumbo crescent rolls
- 3 oz cream cheese
- 1/2 cup Mexican blend shredded cheese
- 3/4 cup cooked chicken (diced or shredded)
- 1/3 cup enchilada or taco sauce
- 2 teaspoons enchilada or taco seasoning mix
- 1/4 cup Mexican shredded cheese for sprinkling
- Preheat oven to 375° and line cookie sheet with foil and spray with no-stick spray
- Place cream cheese and 1/2 cup Mexican cheese in small bowl and microwave for about 30-40 seconds, to soften.
- Add seasoning mix, sauce and chicken to cheese mixture and stir until combined.
- Unroll crescent rolls on prepared pan.
- Scoop 1 large heaping tablespoon of chicken mixture into the center of the two short ends of the crescent roll.
- Pull outer corners of the crescent roll over the chicken mixture, and then pull the long end over, completely enclosing filling.
- Sprinkle tops of puffs with additional shredded Mexican cheese.
- Bake for 15 minutes, or until golden brown.
I use the Tyson grilled chicken that comes in the bags near the lunch meat.

Alameda, CA (Sports Network) - Oakland Raiders quarterback Terrelle Pryor received clearance to practice on Thursday, though his availability for Sunday's game against the Washington Redskins still remains very much in question.
Pryor still needs to pass several tests in order to be given the go-ahead to play against the Redskins. The talented third-year pro is recovering from a concussion he sustained late in the fourth quarter of the Raiders' 37-21 Monday night loss in Denver.
Though Pryor took part in a limited number of drills during Thursday's session, backup Matt Flynn has taken the majority of reps with the first-team offense during the week.
"There are still some hurdles he has to clear," Raiders head coach Dennis Allen told reporters Thursday. "I hope we have a definitive answer sooner rather than later. When the doctors clear him for full participation, that's when we'll know whether he can play in the game or not."
Flynn, who was beaten out by Pryor for the No. 1 job during the preseason, started a pair of games during his four-year stint with Green Bay from 2008-11. The six-year veteran has thrown for 1,100 yards with nine touchdowns and five interceptions over his career.

Firefighters from seven suburbs responded to a massive house fire in Oak Park Wednesday evening.
Nobody was home when the fire broke out in the basement of the house in the 800 block of N. Lombard.
An elderly woman living next door was evacuated along with her dog.
Oak Park's battalion chief says the deep cold didn't help.
"Any kind of fire that we got now we gotta deal with the ice, the cold and now a little bit of snow on the ground," says Chief Kevin Wiley. "Just makes things very treacherous for us even to walk."
No one was hurt battling the fire, which could take several more hours to put out.

You won't be able to dismiss this by usual means (escape or click button), but you can close it programatically based on user choices or actions.
"I thought these were beautiful and very cost effective. I should have looked at the measurements, because they were a little smaller than I was expecting, but overall I'm very happy!"
"I was able to personalize the product so easy! My pictures were not of great quality because I used two from my phone but they came out gorgeous!! The paper was perfect! Everyone one of my guests said that it was different and unique and loved the rustic homey feel! My aunt actually wants to buy a set for her daughters wedding! I would high recommend this item!!!!! The designer was great to deal with! Answered me back right away with changes!!"
"We were able to change the style of writing and personalize it and add some extra details on the back! The price was great (even though I over ordered,by a lot!). Delivery was extremely fast! One week from USA to Australia! Amazing stuff! Will definitely be ordering again!"
"I am so impressed with the Save the Date cards I ordered. I live in the UK and couldn't find the right product on UK sites, but this site had just what I wanted and at a really reasonable price. The international delivery was also excellent and I was kept updated at all times as to when the cards would be delivered. The fact that a designer could make special amendments and then send the design for approval is really impressive. I have recommended the site to all my friends and they are all really impressed with the cards and have commented on how professional they look!"
"I am so pleased with my purchase of these postcards for our save the dates. I love the fact that I could select a custom color to go with our theme. The design process is easy and representatives are available for questions. The paper is a good thick card stock to make them durable for sending in the mail without an envelope."

The Morgan Hotel and The Beacon Hotel today both announced that they have received a TripAdvisor® Certificate of Excellence Award. The accolade, which honours hospitality excellence, is given only to establishments that consistently achieve outstanding traveller reviews on TripAdvisor, and is extended to qualifying businesses worldwide. Approximately only 10 percent of accommodations listed on TripAdvisor receive this prestigious award, therefore making it a double achievement for Fitzpatrick Lifestyle Hotels.
To qualify for the Certificate of Excellence, businesses must maintain an overall rating of four or higher, out of a possible five, as reviewed by travellers on TripAdvisor. Additional criteria include the volume of reviews received within the last 12 months.
The Morgan and The Beacon Hotel Managers; Eddie Sweeney and Raja Kamran are delighted with the results and both thank their teams for their continuous hard work and dedication.

Unlike any other hotel honors, TripAdvisor Travelers' Choice winners are based on millions of valuable reviews and opinions from travelers around the world.
Paul Fitzpatrick, owner of Fitzpatrick Lifestyle Hotels said; "We strive to offer our guests a most memorable lifestyle experience, so this accolade reflects that and also proves our teams' hard work is translating into positive traveler reviews on TripAdvisor."
"TripAdvisor is pleased to honor exceptional businesses for consistent excellence, as reviewed by travellers on the site," said Christine Petersen, president of TripAdvisor for Business.

Goaltender Won Five of Six Decisions for Aces
Providence, RI - The Providence Bruins, in their 17th season in the American Hockey League, announced that goaltender Kevin Nastiuk has been recalled from the ECHL's Alaska Aces. With the move, the P-Bruins have 26 players on their roster, including 15 forwards, eight defensemen and three goaltenders.
Nastiuk, 23, returns to Providence, where he has gone 0-1-0 with a 4.18 goals-against-average in three outings over two previous AHL stints. The goalie was loaned to Alaska on February 20 and he went on to compile a 5-1-0 record with one shutout and a 2.33 GAA in six games. Along with 17 games for the Gwinnett Gladiators this season, Nastiuk has an overall 11-9-3 ECHL mark with a 2.79 GAA in 23 contests.
The Edmonton, Alberta, native went 6-5-2 with a 2.44 GAA last season for the ECHL's Florida Everblades while adding a 4-1-0 mark and 2.31 GAA for the Albany River Rats of the AHL. In his AHL career, Nastiuk is 5-9-3 in 19 games for Providence, Albany and the Lowell Lock Monsters. Meanwhile, the net-minder has posted a 47-26-13 career ECHL record between Alaska, Gwinnett, Florida and the Las Vegas Wranglers.
Prior to turning pro, Nastiuk played four seasons for the Western Hockey League's Medicine Hat Tigers, winning 40 games in 2003-04 en route to a WHL championship and an appearance in the Memorial Cup.
Nastiuk was selected 126th overall by the Carolina Hurricanes in round four of the 2003 National Hockey League Entry Draft.
Providence Bruins season tickets, Flex Tix packages and single game tickets are on sale now for the 2008-09 season. To purchase tickets or to learn more information, call the P-Bruins ticket office at (401) 273-5000 or log on to the team website at providencebruins.com.

Heart Disease in Women
Heart Attacks in Women
A lot of people think that women do not get heart disease. More women die from heart disease than from anything else. Any woman can get heart disease.
When you think about heart disease, you probably think about chest pain. Women might not have chest pain. If they do, they might call it an achy, tight or "heavy" feeling instead of pain. The pain might even be in the back between the shoulder blades, instead of the chest.
Women might think these signs are no big deal because they don't "sound" like a heart attack. Don't ignore these signs. Go to your doctor of clinic right away.
What are the signs of heart disease in women?
The most important sign is feeling really tired--even if after enough sleep. Other signs of heart disease in women are:
There is good news: You can take steps to keep your heart healthy.
Don't wait to get help!
Go to your doctor or clinic if you have any warning signs.

The hardest part of making this fantastic dish was finding the wonton wrappers in the store -- and then trying to decide on a sauce. Excellent!

GREEN BAY, WI (WTAQ) - The Green Bay Metropolitan unemployment rate improved in March by half a percent.
That's according to a household survey from the Department of Workforce Development that found the jobless rate was 7%.
The decline was due to fewer people in the labor force and more people claiming to be employed.
There was total net loss of 300 positions according to a very small survey of employers.
The jobs data is preliminary and not seasonally adjusted.
The Green Bay metropolitan statistical area includes, Brown, Kewaunee, and Oconto Counties.

LiveLive blog: Hereford United's date with Conference destiny
This live event has finished
- Follow our live blog as Hereford United face the Football Conference board as they plead for Conference survival.
- Hereford United face relegation from the Conference after failing to pay their football creditors by a 5pm deadline yesterday.
"@JamboWisard998: @HTnewsroom thanks for the blog today, without it I think Bulls fans would be climbing the walls" Well said, thanks.— @caroting 06 June 2014
What a remarkable afternoon it has been and thank you very much for following our live blog.
I was hearing rumours that Hereford United had been kicked out of the Conference.
But the club have been given one last chance to pay their bills.
The deadline for the payments has been kept confidential by the Conference board.
The Conference clearly do not want to kill off clubs and Hereford United have been given one last chance.
The new director of Hereford United, Andrew Green, was the other person with David Keyte today.
Hereford United are not out of the woods but they have been given a lifeline by the Conference board of directors.
Hereford United are now in a last chance saloon.
Chairman David Keyte will be back for the annual general meeting tomorrow at 11am and bringing with him company secretary Lee Symonds.
The Football Conference Ltd has made the following statement re membership:
Persuant to article 5.2 of the limited company articles of association, a quorate meeting of its board of directors today met to consider matters of membership ahead of the agm.
In the case of Hereford United 1939 Ltd (company 355272) being represented by chairman David Keyte and director Andrew Green, the board unanimously agreed that the club can retain membership of the limited company and their place in the Football Conference Premer Division providing financial payments are secured as directed by the board.
Failure to meet the financial conditions imposed, the club's membership would be revoked.
Chairman Dave Keyte has just left the meeting and did not want to make a statement.
He looked emotionally-drenched and we shook hands.
It has been a wretched time for the club.
The Conference board are preparing a statement - so please stay tuned.
I will keep you posted with any news when the board members come out of this meeting.
Thanks for following the live blog this afternoon and, from what I am being told, a lot of people in Hereford have been reading it.
Conference general manager Dennis Strudwick did warn me earlier that today's board meeting could last until 6pm.
Hopefully, there will be a statement from the Conference shortly or, perhaps, David Keyte.
But the meeting is still in progress.
Hereford United's new representative has just walked past me and didn't seem too distraught.
The Hereford United representatives are still inside the board room...
Still awaiting the Hereford United representatives to come out of the board room.
Two representatives from the other club have just walked past me and appeared to be fairly pleased with their own decision.
There has been a 'change in the batting order', the Conference official has told me.
Two representatives of another club are going into the boardroom before Hereford United.
"@_DavePowell: Hereford United Trust vice chair Martin Watson has tweeted that club are 'gone'. Source is another club at AGM." #agmcup— @EducatedLeftFt 06 June 2014
The decision on Hereford United's future looks set to be delivered to Keyte in the next few minutes.
Dave Keyte and his associate have just walked past me and are heading in the direction of the board meeting...
It is now a matter of sitting and waiting to hear the fate of Hereford United.
It is a probably a good time to reflect and wonder how the club has fallen so badly and so far in such a short space of time.
Four years ago this week, I was at Edgar Street for the unveiling of Dave Keyte and Tim Russon as United's majority shareholders.
Today, could arguably, be the worst day in the history of Hereford United.
Hereford United supporters must be refreshing this live blog, hoping and praying for some positive news.
Hopefully, we might have some concrete news to deliver in the next hour, after the board have finished their discussions.
When you are not inside a meeting and those that are are 'not at liberty to speak' it is very hard to get a handle on the mood.
Hereford United chairman David Keyte and the other club representative are not in the board meeting at the moment as deliberations are continuing.
There are other Conference clubs, too, who have had financial problems this season
@MarkSJordan to be fair i'm just refreshing @HTnewsroom blog like a mad man and tweeting what comes out— @JamboWisard998 06 June 2014
Just had a nice sunbathe/swim. Now, in the hotel keeping up-to-date with HUFC's fortunes back in the UK. Keep me informed @HTnewsroom— @podge1983 06 June 2014

Bulls fans are living on a knife edge once again as the club's future in the Conference hangs by a thread.
They are awaiting a possible press comment - maybe due at 5pm.

We cannot bring much more for the time being but thanks for being patient for the past two hours.
All the Conference board are in the meeting and a press statement might be made by the Conference after 5pm today.
A Conference spokesman has just told me that a press statement might be made after 5pm but not before.
He also said that there might not be a statement made.
The Conference spokesman said Hereford United probably won't be making a statement.
No other press or media are present.
I can't tell whether this blog makes interesting reading.
But the last 90 minutes must have felt like agony for those who are passionate about Hereford United.

David Keyte and the other representative from Hereford United, whom I do not recognise, have just been called back into a room by a Conference board official.
It would appear that the Conference board is discussing Hereford United's fate at this very moment.
David Keyte is also stood outside the meeting room now - the rest of the Conference board members are still inside.
For those who have never been to the Celtic Manor, it is an outstanding venue and based on the outskirts of Newport.
We have some action.
The man who was with David Keyte has just come out of the meeting and is speaking on his mobile phone.
Former Hereford United striker Michael Rankine has just tweeted that he is still awaiting a call from the club about his outstanding wages.

We are trying to clarify Grenville Smith's position at Hereford United.
Dave Preedy, as we know, resigned from the board of directors a few weeks ago.
We are trying to find out whether Grenville remains as a director or has, too, stood down.

So this afternoon at the dayjob working on my normal computer, the other computer next to me has the live feed from @HTnewsroom #HUFC— @MattHealeyDJ 06 June 2014
A lot of Chester FC fans will also be nervously awaiting news from the board meeting which is currently in progress.
There is sure to be some sympathy for Hereford United's troubles and David Keyte, naturally, looked very nervous ahead of the meeting.
I read on message boards that a few Hereford United fans might be coming along today, but I haven't seen any.
The board meeting is taking place in the room in front of me.
Hopefully, we will be able to speak to Dave Keyte when he comes out of the meeting at some point this afternoon.
The last time I saw him was at Aldershot - that dramatic match feels like it happened a long time ago.
Among those at the prospective trustees meeting of United's Community Trust were Peter Knight and Ivan Powell.
As has been reported previously, Jamie Edwards has resigned and is understood to be heading to work at Shrewsbury Town.
Nick Nenadich is very upbeat about the next 12 months for the Hereford United Community Trust and it won't be affected by the outcome of today's Conference board meeting.
Away from this meeting, there has been a positive meeting today in Hereford with the prospective trustees of Hereford United Communitg Trust.

As far as I could see, Hereford United's new owner Tommy Agombar is not at the Celtic Manor for this meeting.
David Keyte, who is with a man whom I do not recognise, has just been called into the board meeting.
Keyte is smartly dressed and we shared a few words on his arrival.
As it is not a public meeting, the press are not allowed in.
The club's date with destiny has begun.
Hereford United chairman David Keyte has just arrived in the lounge ahead of the board meeting.
The members have gone into the room ahead of the board meeting and Hereford United's representative will be called in.
However, Hereford United's representatives are likely to be out of the meeting before 6pm.
Conference general manager Dennis Strudick says he expects today's board meeting could last until 6pm.
Our sports reporter Ian Morgan is at the resort and will be trying to speak to key people.
He has not seen Hereford United chairman David Keyte yet in the surrounds of the meeting room.
The members of the Conference board are starting to gather for Hereford United's meeting in the Cardiff Suite at Celtic Manor.
The meeting is expected to start in 23 minutes.
Hereford United are expected to be meeting with the Football Conference board at 2pm at the Celtic Manor in Newport.
RT @HTnewsroom: New owner Tommy Agombar claims payments to Hereford United's admin staff will be made today ahead of Conference's board mee…— @Corey_HYUFC1997 06 June 2014
SENIOR officers of Herefordshire Council have met with the reported new owner of Hereford United.
But the council has stressed today that the meetings between those officers and businessman Tommy Agombar were "standard introductions" with no outline of future plans for the club.
In a statement, the council said it had yet to receive "formal notification" of the club's new ownership arrangements and could not take part in negotiations without it.
Mr Agombar, the council confirmed, was introduced to those senior officers he could expect to "engage with" in future.
With United's club's own future on the brink, the terms of the lease the council has with the club over the Edgar Street ground stay unchanged.
The council and the club are closely entwined and most recently worked closely to negotiate new leases on the ground.
Assigning the Edgar Street leases – one for 75 years on the ground and terracing to the west, the other for 33 years for the stand and parking area to the east and both dating from 1982 - was one of the last big deals done by the former Hereford City Council.
During the late 1990s, with United facing severe financial problems, the leases were reassigned to property developers in return for a £1m capital injection into the club.
The money was made available through two companies, the BS (Bristol Stadium) Group and Chelverton.
BS and Chelverton took equal ownership of a special purpose company called Formsole Ltd which made the investment and held the leases – as the tenant under both – with the club holding sub-leases.
By August 2001, BS had sold its "loan" to Chelverton which ran into trouble little over a year later when control of the leases passed to Carillion Richardson.
United still owed £1m plus interest to Formsole which stayed solvent when Chelverton went into liquidation.
It was about this time there was talk of United leaving Edgar Street allowing Formsole to sell the site.
This talk came to nothing and by 2003 it was clear the club was staying at Edgar Street.
The reassignment of the leases was supported by Herefordshire Council when it took control of the former city council's affairs.
Getting the leases back was pitched as a political priority when the news broke in April 2010 that then United chairman Graham Turner and vice chairman Joan Fennessy were ready to sell their majority shareholding in the club.
The club began negotiations with Carillion Richardson for the return of the leases almost as soon as the Keyte-Russon takeover was completed in June that year.
That deal was done by December with the club paying £452,000 to secure the return of the leases and settle a £1,069,500 debt to Richardsons Developments, clearing the way for a new single lease and the development opportunities that could bring.
The deal was intended to offer the club security for the next 30 years and ensure future re-entry to the Football League - which requires a 25-year secured tenancy.
It also opened up opportunities for grant funding for any future development - £400,000 in the Conference and £750,000 in the Football League.
The council was ready to allow an extension to the new stadium lease of 250 years once development at either end was underway, with proceeds from the sale of development areas held in a joint escrow account.
That money was intended for the construction of two new stands - one at each end of the ground - and modernisation work on the existing stadium.

Ice Zone to close for good May 15
The Ice Zone, which first opened in Boardman in 1997 and gave rise to youth hockey in the Mahoning Valley, will permanently close on May 15, said William Weimer, vice president of the B.J. Alan Co., which owns the rink.
Weimer said declining revenue at the rink over the years, despite a fervent push to raise interest in winter sports and "tremendous amounts of advertising dollars" to market the rink, was the primary reason to go forward with the decision to shut the doors for good.
The Youngstown Phantoms, who play in the United States Hockey League, and sometimes use the Ice Zone, located at 360 McClurg Road, for practice time will not be affected by the move, Weimer said.
Instead, arrangements will be made for more practice time at the Covelli Centre or at rinks as far away as Canton, Pittsburgh or Kent. Phantoms home games will continue to be played at the Covelli Centre.
Weimer said the May 15 closing date will allow youth hockey teams and other recreational groups to finish their winter seasons and give those groups time during the summer to make other arrangements elsewhere.
Only thing that goes around here would be a shooting range but theres Thugstown for that. Alot of business in this area are closing. Ice zone unfortuately is at a time when kids do not even come out of the house let alone skate. They have their butts planted in front of a Xbox and on phone with any free time. Hate to see it go.
Sorry to hear that. Personally, I didn't care for ice skating because it was cold, and I could roller skate instead and keep warm. Landing on ice is quite a bit better than a maple wood floor, though.
Wasn't there a study just done that said the Covelli Center should get rid of hockey? Timing of this have any thing to do with that? Ploy to keep them at the Covelli or excuase to disband?
WHAT???? Nobody has blamed the UNIONS yet. Usually anything that is closed down is the unions fault.
As reported on Fox News this morning Obama sold the rink to the the Chinese government. Or something like that. Dam you Obama!!!!!!!!!!!
I always wondered why they couldn't spell "Covelli" right on the sign. The other day it was spelled wrong twice..."Cavelli" and "Coveli".
It's probably for the best. Mr. Zoldan can barely keep his own Fireworks business afloat, let alone fund a dead-from-the-start hockey team AND The Ice Zone on top of it. Maybe it's about time he stops acting so "Juvenile" as he so eloquently put, and give up his rich boy toys that are burying his company into the ground. No wonder they can't keep employees from quitting the place, when he dumps hundreds of thousands of dollars worth of payroll a year into the team, then forces his employees to work the games, yet says there's no money for raises for the past 5-6 years "because of the bad economy"... Crash and burn Mr. Zoldan... It's only a matter of time now.
An ex-employee.

Taj Griffin and Ty Clemons each rushed for more than 100 yards and scored a touchdown Saturday as McEachern dominated Brookwood for a 31-10 victory in the Corky Kell Classic at the Georgia Dome.
It was the kind of start to the season the Indians needed after going 2-5 in their past seven season openers. McEachern, which entered the game with high hopes as well as the state's No. 6 ranking, started 0-2 last season before winning eight consecutive games to claim the Region 4-AAAAAA championship.
Griffin and Clemons give the Indians a reason to be optimistic. Griffin, a junior running back, rushed for 156 yards on 10 carries, all but two of which were in the first half. His biggest came on the first play of the second quarter, when he ran 90 yards for a touchdown to give McEachern a 17-3 lead that was never threatened.
Clemons, a senior quarterback who shared time at the position last season with Griffin's older brother Ty, ran for 109 yards and threw for 67 more. His 11-yard touchdown run midway through the third quarter gave the Indians a 24-3 lead.
McEachern took control early despite drawing more than its share of penalties in a sloppy first half. Brookwood was called for six penalties – not including one that was declined and another that was nullified by a McEachern penalty – for 35 yards. McEachern had 85 yards on nine penalties in the half. One wiped out a 46-yard touchdown pass, and another brought back a 15-yard run by Clemons that would have given the Indians a first-and-goal at the 2-yard line. McEachern salvaged that drive with a 32-yard field goal by David Dominguez for a 10-3 lead with 2:15 remaining in the first quarter. The teams finished with a combined 23 penalties for 189 yards.
Brookwood took a 3-0 lead on its first possession, driving 47 yards on eight plays for Brandon Morrow's 36-yard field goal with 8:53 to play in the first quarter. But the Broncos struggled on offense most of the night. They were outgained 390-260 and had just 70 yards rushing on 30 carries. Brookwood's touchdown came on a 5-yard pass from Joey McLane to Matthew Price with 3:59 to play in the game. McLane was 11-for-24 passing for 163 yards in his debut as the Broncos' starter.
McEachern hosts ninth-ranked Lassiter on Friday in the second half of a doubleheader that begins with Hillgrove taking on Walton at 6 p.m. Brookwood plays at Mill Creek on Sept. 6.
Brookwood – 3-0-0-7 – 10
McEachern – 10-7-7-7 – 31
B – Brandon Morrow 36 field goal
M – Ryan Sherman 14 run (Dennis Dominguez kick)
M – Dominguez 32 field goal

Don't be too sad westcobb5, the angel wings have been replaced by the words strength and faith under the arms of the boys under shirt, the placement of the words are where Rajaan had these words tattooed on his arms. We most definitely will always keep 5 alive.

In the name of Dave Hunter, will someone PLEASE remove the smell that is the Brookwood football team from the Kell Classic now, PLEASE? They've lost something like eight of the last nine times they've played in it, for goodness sake.

Great Job Indians! Defense looked very solid, much better than the defense in the past which was known for giving up 28-30 points per game. Kudos to Coach Grandpa for changing it up this year! That 90 yard run by Taj Griffin was with a sprained ankle and he still blew everyone out with his speed, man oh man, that kid is just plain out FAST! Much Respect to Ty Clemmons made some very good decisions behind center last night! @Sportsnut thanks we played a little sloppy in the first quarter but it was expected with first game jitters but we manage to settle down and play some good football. Good Luck to Lovejoy this year!

Time for Corky Kell Classic to get some different teams
August 25th, 2013
12:39 pm
Thx for the info re t-shirts, IndianPride. I'm an admirer of the program but not an insider, so I was not aware. Another classy move.
Interested to see how the defense handles Lassiter's passing game. This will be a much different test than Brookwood.
August 25th, 2013
1:24 pm
Well, Mac certainly has the speed to burn.
Also some big boys on both lines that are very good.
Hoping my Trojans can limit those big run plays and get some pressure up front. We are replacing a lot, but have some very nice talent.
Will be interested to see how the Lassiter offense looks early with a new QB receiving corps.
Looking forward to Friday at Mac!

CEM and Perry, you must be new followers of the Corky Kell Classic. There will always be 3 teams that will be involved in the line up. They are Brookwood, McEachern and Kell. Those schools and Dave Hunter and Jimmy Dorsey are instrumental in putting on this day so it's a given their football team will be put on the field. Each program from the 10 schools has to write a check to the Dome organizers for their allotment of tickets, regardless if they have sold them or not. It's a huge financial commitment to be invited. Many programs go through waves of building and success and it's tough to open in the spotlight and on TV. Yesterday there were 5 good games and enthusiastic crowds.
August 25th, 2013
4:53 pm
Without getting too detailed, I have quite a bit of knowledge when it comes to the Kell Classic, and the people involved. And there's no way anyone can tell me there aren't plenty of schools that could and would make the commitment. Brookwood has lost in this game seven out of the past years and are 59-28 in that span. Which then makes the question pretty clear: Is Dave Hunter interested in promoting Brookwood, or putting the best teams on the field? I'm not a Sandy Creek supporter, but not only could they probably beat more than half the teams playing yesterday, I'm quite sure they'd be more than happy – and able – to fill a spot. I don't care who was or is instrumental in putting the game together, one of the requisites of playing should be earning it. I've literally sat there and watched Dorsey hold his breath until the thing could be held at McEachern when the roof of the Georgia Dome was damaged and made the place unusable. And he ended up getting an extra true home game out of it, which they barely won 9-6 in the rain and almost surely would've lost on turf at a neutral site. Believe me, there are no two more self-serving individuals in Georgia high school football than Dorsey and Hunter.
August 25th, 2013
5:15 pm
And just to add to the above post – and offer some circumstantial proof to what I said – clearly Hunter and Dorsey (to the extent Dorsey remains involved) aren't concerned much about ticket sales outside the participants' fan bases, since if they were, they'd find a better product to put in the final game than Brookwood. Apparently he is delusional enough to believe people with no ties to any school are itching to buy tickets to see his former school get beat again. Who is going to want to see another McEachern/Walton/Brookwood/Peachtree Ridge round-robin again? Now consider how many people might have attended a Buford-Sandy Creek match as the prime-time game. The whole thing might as well be called the Hunter-Dorsey Kickoff Classic.
August 25th, 2013
7:30 pm
@westcobb5 I completely agee that Lassiter will be an altogether different test than brookwood was. Lassiter's passing game is definitely on point and to be respected. Our defense has our work cut out for us this week. But we have been working all summer and doing pretty well in ths area, we have a couple of junior OLB's to add to our pass defense arsenal that are sure to cause some disruption. Number 28 is fast and can read the pass very well at 6′ over 200lbs he's a force, number 51 is 6′ and over 200lbs as well and I have heard that he moves like a cat and has hands like a wide receiver. At any rate I am looking forward to a great matchup between two great teams.
August 26th, 2013

@Smitty. Focus on the war not the battle. Get past the first round of the playoffs for a change and then come holler at us.

KENT COUNTY (WKZO) -- Suspected murderer Javonte Higgins, who has gone to extraordinary lengths to convince court officials that he has mental problems, has been ruled competent to stand trial.
He spent most of his arraignment babbling, and drooled while acting heavily sedated during a preliminary hearing.
At one point he delayed another hearing by smearing feces all over himself.
Higgins is suspected of breaking into the Kentwood home of David and Vivian Bouwman and killing them and then stealing and burning their car.
He was ordered to undergo psychiatric exams and apparently the experts feel he understands what's going on and can assist in his own defense.

The Twitterization of Facebook
March 16, 2009 by Ryan
If you're new here, you may want to subscribe to my RSS feed. Thanks for visiting!
Kicking & Screaming: It seems like Facebook is going
to compete with Twitter whether it's 100's of millions of
users want it or not!
@joelcomm: 8 million Twitter users is nothing compared to 160 million Facebook users. Yes, it's big. But you ain't seen nuttin' yet.
Facebook has made some curious moves lately:
– Facebook homepage redesigned with statuses front & center.
– Facebook opening up option to display profiles publicly.
Twitter: The Little Site that Could
Why are they doing this? Answer: Twitter. Joel Comm calls it "the water cooler of the 21st century." Gary Vaynerchuck calls it "the little site that could." Many have viewed these moves as a way for Facebook to compete with Twitter. With Twitter on the rise, it seems like an obvious and necessary move for Facebook. The two sites are very similar and have emerged as the two heavy hitters in the social media landscape. But is it really necessary for Facebook to become Twitter?
Integrating Facebook & Twitter
Many Twitter users have been looking for ways to integrate the two for a long time. Services like Ping.fm and Twitter's own Facebook app have been used to sync across both networks. More recently, third party Twitter apps like Seesmic (Twhirl), PeopleBrowsr.com and the newest TweetDeck release have added Facebook integration. Generally, Twitter users don't have issues with using both!
I guess there are some Twitter loyalists out there:
@johnmorgan: Best way for Facebook to be more like twitter? Stop sucking.
Even Demi Moore prefers Tweeting:
@mrskutcher:Facebook is cool but Twitter is the sh*t!
A friend of mine, Jordan Brown, says that, "LinkedIn is for people that I've worked with. Facebook is for people I knew in school and growing up. Twitter is for people that I want to know." That's how I use it. I don't necessarily think Facebook needs to make a play at edging out Twitter.
The Shiny New Toy
The problem I see is with Facebook users. Facebook is a great place to connect, to share and to keep up. For some users, Facebook is all they use: no more emailing, no more blogging, no more instant messaging outside of it! Even with all that functionality being overwhelming for some, it's been a winning formula and Facebook has grown to 160+ million users.
In comes Twitter, with its explosion of users, both everyday and celebrity. It's the newest, shiniest toy for many people.
Jimmy Fallon is trying to get one of his audience members followers than Barack Obama Twitter account.
Ellen Degeneres overtook Levar Burton and now has her sights on MC Hammer.
But there's a problem assuming everyone wants the same thing. Facebook serves a certain need and it has done it very well. Is it worth disenchanting Facebook's established user-base to edge out Twitter? I've already seen numerous complaints about the new design. Just search for "keep the old design" in Facebook and look how many Facebook groups there are!
Here are some questions I've been asking:
Is Facebook looking to capitalize on an "inevitable" collapse of the revenue-less Twitter?
Will Facebook users warm to the new functionality or will there be another exodus (like the one over the recently discarded TOS revison)?
What do you think?
Here's a great post on the same idea by Rachel Levy: Does Facebook have Twitter-envy?

Funny how 2 people take the same issue and think about it in 2 very different ways! I just wrote a post on this also, but from a different perspective: http://bit.ly/4NfoS
Your point: "Is it worth disenchanting Facebook's established user-base to edge out Twitter?" is a great one… Trying to compete with Twitter can alienate Facebook's loyal customers.
I have also seen a lot of complaints about the new design, but haven't seen the anti-design groups yet! I'll have to check that out.
Great post! Thanks.

I think that Facebook is trying to appeal to the people who were migrating for Twitter for it's simplistic, 140 character status updates and no more to interact with my friends approach. Of course, what they really should have done is polled their users, or given everyone the option to switch back to the old homepage instead.

@Kikolani That's an interesting perspective, that it was a move to make Facebook more simplistic. Unfortunately, I think that they made it less simplistic, at least for those people that had gotten used to how it was.

The way I see it, facebook is a toy. Linkedin is a tool for networking, while Twitter is a tool for communicating. But the take away point is that facebook isn't really a tool but the powers that be are trying to market it as such. But with all the random quizzes and other crap floating around facebook I find it tough to view it as a useful tool. Instead, I use to stay in touch with friends from school and waste time here and there. But for business purposes I stick to linkedin and twitter.

Transitioning to Low GWP Alternatives
The Significant New Alternatives Policy (SNAP) Program is EPA's program to evaluate and regulate substitutes for the ozone-depleting chemicals that are being phased out under the stratospheric ozone protection provisions of the Clean Air Act (CAA).
In Section 612(c) of the Clean Air Act, the Agency is authorized to identify and publish lists of acceptable and unacceptable substitutes for class I or class II ozone-depleting substances.
The Administrator has determined a large number of alternatives exist that reduce overall risk to human health and the environment. The purpose of the program is to allow a safe, smooth transition away from ozone-depleting compounds by identifying substitutes that offer lower overall risks to human health and the environment.
The SNAP program has reviewed substitutes for the following industrial sectors:

SAN DIEGO — Matt Harvey was hardly satisfied after his latest steady start led to another no-decision.
The Mets ace allowed two runs over six innings before Will Venable hit a leadoff homer in the ninth to give the San Diego Padres a 4-3 victory Sunday.
"Matt pitched great," said manager Terry Collins. "Cripes, they got a bloop single, an infield single and we're in trouble. He's done what he's done all year for us and that's pitch very well."
The Mets placed right-hander Jenrry Mejia on the 15-day disabled list after he had to leave Saturday's start because he experienced pain in his surgically repaired elbow.
Manager Terry Collins hasn't decided who will fill Mejia's spot in the rotation. The Mets called up RHP Greg Burke from Triple-A Las Vegas. Asked if Mejia's season might be over, Collins said: "I can't say I know for sure, but it certainly doesn't look very good. There has been plans to do surgery on his bone spurs in the offseason, and now I would assume more sooner than later." Mejia (1-2) has 27 strikeouts and four walks in five starts over 271�"3 innings this year.
Harvey rebounded from a subpar outing in Los Angeles. He gave up six hits and struck out six to increase his NL-leading total to 187, five more than Dodgers ace Clayton Kershaw.
The right-hander, who did not walk a batter, had his 16th no-decision but lowered his ERA to 2.25, second-best in the majors behind Kershaw's 1.80.
"It wasn't until that sixth inning I felt back to normal," Harvey said. "I know the first five innings and my last start, I was feeling for something. The sixth inning, I felt like it was me again and back in control."
Harvey lost his previous start 4-2 to the Dodgers, giving up four runs and eight hits in six innings with a season-low three strikeouts.
San Diego tied the score at 2 against Harvey after Logan Forsythe was hit by a pitch leading off the fifth and Nick Hundley singled. Following a sacrifice bunt, Venable's infield single brought home one run and Alexi Amarista's sacrifice fly knocked in the second.
"It's been happening quite a bit," Harvey said about the no-decisions. "I need to go out and not give up runs like I did in the fifth inning. If I don't do that, maybe I'm still in the game."
Venable drove a 1-2 pitch from Pedro Feliciano (0-2) just inside the right-field foul pole for his team-high 17th home run, increasing his career high. Venable extended his career-best hitting streak to 15 games, the longest active streak in the majors.
"He went down and got it," Feliciano said. "It was low, but in, and kind of went middle-in, and he dove and got it straight up and it went out. It was surprising."
Huston Street (1-4) pitched a scoreless ninth for the win.
New York split the four-game series and is 4-6 on an 11-game road trip, its longest of the season.
Yonder Alonso led off the San Diego eighth with a walk against Gonzalez German and went to third on Chase Headley's one-out double. Chris Denorfia's infield single scored Alonso to tie the score 3-all.
Feliciano relieved and, after a groundout, intentionally walked Hundley to load the bases. Jaff Decker flied out to end the inning.
Pinch-hitter Andrew Brown followed a two-out double by Omar Quintanilla with an RBI double off the center-field fence against Eric Stults in the seventh to put the Mets ahead 3-2.
Stults permitted three runs and six hits over 6.2 innings.
Justin Turner reached on a one-out double in the New York first and scored on Marlon Byrd's double. Wilmer Flores added a sacrifice fly in the fourth.

Our work > Preventing plant extinctions > BGCI's China programme
BGCI's China programme
China is a key region for BGCI's conservation work and we have a regional office there, based at South China Botanic Garden.
BGCI's work in China supports The China Strategy for Plant Conservation (CSPC), a national response to the GSPC that we helped to develop. In 2012, a review of progress in implementing the CSPC was carried out. Find out more about the review here or download a copy of the report.
Working with botanic gardens and other partners we are undertaking an ambitious project to save a range of endangered tree species from extinction and restore native habitats.
Species conservation
Species include Magnolias such as Magnolia angustioblonga, M. ingrata, M. hebecarpa, and M. longipedunculata and the rare species Davidia involucrata and Pseudotaxus chienii
Our surveys found just 11 mature M. longipedunculata individuals in the wild and none in cultivation.
Partnering with botanic gardens and research institutes we have undertaken propagation of these species . We've also been talking to local and national authorities and communities to identify potential for reintroduction and conservation measures in situ.
Read more about our species conservation programmes here.
Habitat conservation
Other projects in China include supporting community conservation at Zi-ben-shan - a once mega-diverse mountain region that has been hugely degraded by logging, large-scale medicinal and ornamental plant collection, mining and agricultural cropping. We are facilitating the documentation of the woody flora of the area and planning for the development of a provincial forest park.
In partnership wth Xishuangbanna Tropical Botanical Garden, we are working to develop a model for restoration of tropical rain forest on limestone in Xishuangbanna National Nature Reserve - an area dramatically affected by the planting of rubber plantations. We are also carryinhg out a study on the impact of large native tree transplantation from the wild into urban spaces for amenity planting in partnership with the Hubei University for Nationalities, Enshi.
Read more about our habitat-based conservation projects here.
Medicinal plant conservation
Local communities in Xinshao county in central Hunan have a long tradition of collection and cultivation of local crop varieties and medicinal plants that grow in association with the paddy fields in the low-lands, slope-farming lands and forested hills and mountains. Most significantly over the past 30 years, various landraces and medicinal plant species have disappeared from the region as a result of new agricultural techniques promoting rice monocultures. This project aims to promote the reintroduction and sustainable use of a number of species of medicinal importance, including the threatened Magnolia officinalis and Dysosma versipellis.

It seemed like every time a sports fan turned around, there was something to catch his or her attention.
The morning sky has not yet begun to lighten as the truck bounces over the white, moonlit ground, tires sinking nearly to the rim in deep, snowy ruts.
To the west, Laurel Mountain and Mt. Morrison are limned in light, stars brilliant, waiting.
Tomorrow, when the sun rises, the days will begin to lengthen, one minute more every morning, one minute more every evening, every day until the Summer Solstice in June when the cycle reverses.
But not today.
'Slopeside Center' revamped; hundreds of athletes here
Sometimes, dreams really do come true.
Dave McCoy's vision of a high-altitude training center at Mammoth Mountain—a dream that has passed through generations of racers and coaches—will come to fruition Thursday afternoon (Dec. 27).
The sleet poured down in great, slanting sheets as I walked the narrow, unplowed road. I bent my (hatless) head into the wind and picked up my drenched and booted feet and kept walking. Cars passed me, casting off heavy chunks of rain-soaked snow from their spinning tires, soaking me even more.
It didn't really matter at that point—it was impossible to get much wetter.
"What a @# $@ idiot," I mumbled to myself, rain dripping off my face, not one word in three fit to print.
In one of the more enduring traditions that Mammoth has to offer, the Village Championships rank among the top.
For 37 years, the locals in Mammoth have raced each other on the racecourses at Mammoth Mountain Ski Area, and it's no time to stop now.
With good snow cover expected throughout the season, the VCs open Jan. 8 and continue through the Finals on April 9.
The old hands will be at it again, with new faces once more popping into view.
The theme this season is "COLOSSAL," said Drew Krempel of the ski area's race department.
It might be the most madcap carnival ride in all of California.
Chair 23, a fixed-grip triple that recently was named among the "Top Seven Iconic Chairlifts in the World" by a notable ski website, rises to the top of the Mammoth Mountain crest as one of the hairiest rides on any ski hill anywhere.
"It's definitively a sphincter-tightening ride," said Mammoth Mountain Ski Area CEO Rusty Gregory, who as a young strapper on his way up the chain of command helped build the lift in 1982.
After a hiatus of three seasons, girls basketball is back at Mammoth High School.
In the first tryouts for the new program, 33 girls took a stab at the nets under the watchful eye of new coach William Bauman, a 26-year-old long, tall—really tall—drink of water from Minnesota.
"Basketball is turning a corner in town," said Bauman, who was recently married to Mammoth local John Eastman's daughter, Danielle.
"It's just the greatest sport ever invented."
Bauman said he played a bit of college hoops before arriving in Mammoth, and is familiar with women's basketball in particular.
The new track on Benton Crossing Road near the Whitmore Animal Shelter is ready to go.
Its Grand Opening is Saturday, Nov. 17, at noon with members of the Mammoth Track Club, town officials and the track's main proponent, runner Elaine Smith.
In the dark November night, the snow-struck silence is broken by a cacophony of noise and the floor of the bedroom erupts.
My border collie Skye slams up on top of the bed from the floor, bouncing on her toes, barking at the closed window.
We pull the curtain back, and shine the big flashlight, hastily retrieved from its home under the bed, toward the cars and parking lot just 30 feet from the window.

The Largest Acqusition in the US Diversified Food Sector
Anh is a member of The Motley Fool Blog Network -- entries represent the personal opinion of the blogger and are not formally edited.
One strategy for opportunistic investors is to invest in companies that have a high probability of being acquired. In order to pick the next potential buyout candidates, we need study the past buyout deals to understand about the reasoning behind each deal and the average buyout valuations. In November 2012, ConAgra Foods (NYSE: CAG) announced that it would acquire Ralcorp (NYSE: RAH) for $90 per share, with a total transaction value of $6.8 billion including the assumption of debt. The acquisition was completed in the end of January. Are there a lot of synergies between the two companies? Is a $90 offer a high price?
ConAgra's Business Snapshot
ConAgra is one of the leaders in North America food industry, operating in two main operating segments: Consumer Foods and Commercial Foods. Consumer Foods sells a wide range of food brands including Blue Bonnet, DAVID, Alexia, and Banquet in retail and foodservice channels in North America. Commercial Foods sells branded foods and ingredients under several brands including ConAgra Mills, Lamb Weston to food manufacturing and industrial customers. The company's largest customer was Wal-Mart, which accounted for 17% of total net sales in fiscal 2012.
Ralcorp – A Leader in Private Brand Food Sector
Ralcorp is also the leading private brand food products supplier to retail and foodservice channel, with four main operating segments: Snacks, Sauces & Spreads, Frozen Bakery Products, Cereal Products and Pasta. Wal-Mart is also a Ralcorp's biggest customer, and accounted for 17% of the total revenue. The top 5 customers represented 38% of total net sales. The majority of Ralcorp's revenue, $1.75 billion, or 40.5%, was generated from Snacks, Sauces & Spreads business. It was also the biggest profit contributor, with $140.4 million in profit, accounting for nearly 33% of the total company's profit in fiscal 2012.
In early 2012, Ralcorp spun off Post Holdings (NYSE: POST). With a 10.4% market share, Post is considered the third largest company in the US cereal market. William Stiritz, a long time chairman of Ralcorp, has become the chairman and CEO of Post. It is interesting to note that Stiritz would manage Post with a base salary of only $1. The majority of his compensation was stock awards and stock options. Mario Gabelli, the famous investment manager, expected that Post's earnings might double in the next 3-4 years.
Four Main Strategic Benefits of the Deal
ConAgra saw four main strategic benefits in Ralcorp's acquisition. First, ConAgra would become one of the largest packaged food companies in North America, with total net sales of $18 billion and more than 36,000 employees. It would also become the leader in private label food sector in North America, with the combined private brand food sales of nearly $4.5 billion. Second, as Ralcorp has relationships with all the major retailers, quick service restaurants, and food distributors in North America, ConAgra could take advantage of Ralcorp's efficient sales channels and price points. It could increase the company's importance to customers and suppliers. Third, as around 70% of Ralcorp's products, which includes crackers, snack nuts, pasta, peanut butter, refrigerated nuts and jams, holds the number 1 market leading position, the acquisition would enhance ConAgra's position in many attractive and fast growing food segments. Last but not least, ConAgra could have a more balanced product portfolio. After the deal, the Branded segment would contribute 43% of the total sales, while Private Label and Commercial/Foodservice contribute 25% and 32% of the total sales.
In terms of the financials, ConAgra expected that the cost synergies would be around $225 million per year by the fourth year. It also expected to issue up to $350 million equity to increase financial flexibility. Interestingly, ConAgra tried to buy Ralcorp for $94 per share in 2011, but got rejected. The previous offer valued Ralcorp at 9.4x EV/EBITDA. This time, ConAgra was successful, but with a higher valuation of 11x EV/EBITDA.
Foolish Bottom Line
ConAgra would definitely strengthen its market leading position in both branded and private brand food sectors with Ralcorp's acquisition. According to Bloomberg, the median EV multiples was 10.5x in 13 comparable deals in the past 10 years. Thus, with the great synergies between the two leading food businesses, I don't think the deal is overpriced.

Invention is the cause of disasters
Man invented many things, but unfortunately these inventions are creating problem for human survival. For example depletion of ozone layer is because of pollution and effluents like CFC. In the similar way pollution from vehicles. Now the problem is with whom? is it due to over usage of technology or due to man invention?
Invention and technology doesn't mean that highly engineered techniques, it can be a simple plastic which is harming population and also it may be a small cell phone which is now effecting human brains due to radiation. I am not saying that we should not have technologies, but what is the limit and how we are misusing it.

Nov 22 2012: Grace, as you can see, my comment has been removed according to the terms of use.
Anyway, after reading these terms of use, I noticed rule 4, stating that they will remove:
• disrespectful, distasteful, unconstructive, or illegal content.
I must admit that I was a little annoyed by this comment and that you could notice that through my comment. So it was probably removed because it was disrespectful.
The reason why I got annoyed probably has something to do with the unconstructive comment by TED Lover. If he thinks the problem is money, then please explain why. According to the terms of use, his comment is just as inappropriate.
I'm really curious why you think TED Lover's comment is adding something significant. What I didn't understand. And what my inadequacies are.
