Photos: Braehmer Putting in Hard Work for Maccarinelli
WBA 'regular' light heavyweight world champion Juergen Braehmer was training hard at the Sportschule Gustrow in Gustrow, Germany. The veteran is preparing for his upcoming title defense against former Cruiserweight titlist Enzo Maccarinelli. Their clash takes place on April 5 at the Stadthalle Rostock, Germany. Maccarinelli was the cruiserweight champion under the WBO, but lost that belt in a unification with future heavyweight David Haye in 2008. Maccarinelli moved down to 175 in 2012.

ALA The Reading List (25)
This is one of those books where the concept seems outstanding but the actual execution falls a bit short. Still an entertaining book to read, but slightly disappointing overall. The ending was exciting and the beginning was interesting, but the middle fell was a tad uninspired. A good book that could have been great.
Was alright. I finished it but I was a bit upset with the delivery of the book in that the journal entries weren't journal like - they read like a novel. Especially the descriptions of people while they spoke. (See notes made in my Ipad) Story is basically that every morning Christine wakes up in bed with a stranger as she has lost 20 years of her memory . With the help of a Doctor who rings her every day and her husband Ben, she pieces together that she had a son Adam who was killed in the Afghanistan War and her memory loss was caused by a car accident.
Through photos, clippings and other recollections she pierces her life back together.
I found the fact that every morning the Dr would ring her and tell her to look in the journal WAY too far fetched...it took me 4 hours to read that bit of the book and I don't think she would have done this every day....especially having to process everything - she would have had to have TIME to sit and absorb the "NEW" information.
Read for Book Club.
spooky ala Gone Girl woman with amnesia forgets in sleep each night
Mind = blown. That pretty much sums up my thoughts on this book. Before I Go to Sleep is mystery/thriller that will literally keep you guessing until the very end.
Christine is a middle aged woman who wakes each morning a blank slate. I don't mean this in the self help "every day is a new day" sort of way. She literally is a blank slate, she has no memories. As a result of a horrific tragedy 20+ years ago, Christine has a very rare form of amnesia in which she can retain no memories. Most days she wakes believing she is in her early twenties, other days she believes she is still a child. Each morning her husband Ben patiently talks her through her past tragedy, explains her diagnosis, and attempts to provide clarity and reassurances with family pictures and scrapbooks documenting their marriage and life together. At the urging of a psychologist, Dr. Nash who is bent on assisting Christine in retrieving her memories, or at the very least, begin to retain new ones, she begins keeping a journal every day. Over the course of several weeks, Christine reconnects with (what she believes is) a dear friend, Claire, and learns that the "accident" resulting in her condition may not have been an accident at all, but may be the result of something much more sinister. Christine isn't sure what is truth and what is lie, who she can trust and who she can't (including her own mind) but she must make sense of it all, before it's too late (sounds ominous, I know).
This book had me guessing the ENTIRE time. Just when I thought I had it all figured out, I was thrown a curveball. I oscillated between thinking each of the three supporting characters in Christine's story had nefarious intentions, then changing my mind...again....and again. Having such an unreliable main character really made trying to figure out "who dun it" that much more difficult and made the ending that much more spectacular. I definitely recommend this read if you are into mystery/thrillers, it won't disappoint!
Every morning Christine wakes up in a strange bed beside a strange man. She views herself as a party girl so when she sees his wedding ring, she thinks she got drunk and went home with a married man. When she looks in the mirror she sees the face a an older woman, not the mid-twenties woman she feels like inside. She tries to remember how she ended up there but soon realizes she can't remember anything. Her past is a mystery.
The stranger introduces himself as Ben, her husband of twenty years. He tells her that every morning he wakes up to a woman who can't remember anything, including him or their life together. He explains this every day and also puts notes around the bathroom mirror to remind her throughout the day what to do and how to reach him. Chris is also contacted by Dr Edmund Nash, a neuro psychologist, who also calls every day to tell her where to find her journal. When she starts to read it, the very first sentence she sees is "Don't trust Ben".
Before I Go to Sleep is divided into three parts, all narrated by Christine. Part One introduces the reader to the premise. Part Two is filled with Christine's journal entries. Part Three is what happens after she's finished reading her journal. The author did a wonderful job of relaying Christine's anxiety to us through her journals. She lets us know how terrifying it must be to wake up each day with no memories of the previous day. This is a complex, well written and suspenseful novel. I didn't realize it had been made into a movie so I might check it out. I'm usually disappointed in those after enjoying the book, so maybe it's better if I skip it.
What if you woke up every morning, confused and lost? What if the body you woke up in was not the body you remember going to sleep in? What if you were oblivious to the events of the last 30 years of your life? Memories are what define all of us as people. But when you wake up, tangled in lies, visions and fleeting images of memories that seem to dark and fiction to seem real, how do you make sense of that?
Welcome to the life of Christine Lucas, a middle aged woman suffering from extreme amnesia, who has no memory of what happened in her life for her past 30 years. When she sleeps, her memory melts away, like snow on a spring day.
The highly acclaimed, internationally best seller is truly a suspenseful, interesting and gripping book that will keep you entertained for all 356 pages of it. For lovers of Mysteries, this is a must read book, and I highly recommend it to everybody.
What if you woke up every morning, confused and lost, and unfamiliar with your own reflection in the mirror? What would you do when you wake up, tangled in lies, visions and fleeting images of memories that seem to dark and fiction to seem real?
Welcome to the life of Christine Lucas, a victim of an unsettling accident leaving her unable to retain memories for longer than 24 hours. When she sleeps, her memory melts away, like snow on a spring day. Keeping a diary of her daily events, she fits the pieces of her life puzzle together; she reaches a disturbing conclusion.
The Journal style format of this book creates a truly unique style of writing, one that truly pulls you into the struggles of Christine's daily life. The narration gives the reader a striking insight into the daily battle of discovering her identity. However, the style of daily journal entries can make the book slow at parts, but much like a roller coaster, it is all simply preparation for the plunge of excitement.
For lovers of mysteries and psychological thrillers, this is a must read book. However, I still highly recommend it to everybody. The sudden flashbacks, the distorted images and the faint impression that things are not at all what they seem. This book will make you rethink all of your unclear memories; it will keep you extremely entertained.
The ending feels hurried; a sentimental postscript to the meticulously plotted main event. But these are minor gripes. Before I Go to Sleep is an enjoyable and impressive first novel. Like the best of its thematic predecessors, it is also an affecting moral allegory: don't forget your loved ones. Or else.
The most unnerving aspect of Before I Go to Sleep is the way it is rooted in the domestic, the suburban, the trivial. Forget whizz-bang futurism: it proceeds from ordinary life in tiny, terrifying steps, and is all the better for it.
Watson's pitch-perfect writing propels the story to a frenzied climax that will haunt readers long after they've closed the cover on this remarkable book.

One of my all time favorite
I loved see this show again. It was one of my favorite shows when I was young. Seeing it again brought back a lot of GREAT memories. I would love to see more seasons of it made available. Why has it been so long for the release of more of their shows? It is still fun for me to watch and imagine having my own fantasy being brought to life.

We've just come back from staying here for 5 nights. For the money you pay, this place is fantastic. The pool is amazing and the location is perfect if you want to be in kuta.
I had a new room which was lovely. Noise from other guests had its moments in the early hours of the morning but My 1 year old slept through it which was a relief. Strange thing to say but I found the other guests who stayed here were lovely. Most had no kids and were so nice to us.
What let the place down was the service. However I'm not sure if it was because we stayed during their religious week as to whether they had different staff on.
On the email before arriving, we asked a couple of times to make sure the cot was set up in my room as we had a late arrival from the airport at 11pm. It wasn't. Not only that but it took them over an hour to get their act into gear to find one and set it up in my room. I had to keep repeatedly asking where is it.
There were a couple of lovely staff there but that's about it. Overall disappointed in their service throughout the holiday.
I would stay here again though because its one of the best places in Perth for value for money

The home for soldiers at the foot of the Gastlosen, established during the throes of the Second World War, was built on the initiative of a major whose idea was to prepare his troops for combat in winter. And luckily, today, the authentic mountain hut provides food and shelter for hiking and climbing enthusiasts. Beautiful views over Gruyere country are yours from the terrace, while the massive limestone walls of the Gastlosen dominate your field of view looking east. The old soldiers' abode is reached from the Musersbergli, top chairlift station of the «Gastlosen-Express» - on a gently winding up and down path through woods and pastures – requiring 2.5 hours for the walk there and back. And those who can afford more time turn the excursion into a round hike around the Gastlosen. In this case, you then climb a narrow and party exposed trail to the Wolfs-Ort place; and from there, with splendid views over Saanen country and the Simmental valley, you reach the Chalet Grat. The way back to Musersbergli then follows through mountain forests.

Parish testing results show improvement, decline
By: Jeannine LeJeune
BATON ROUGE – As the end of the school year comes to a close across the state, schools have found out the results for the 2011 iLEAP, LEAP and GEE testing.
Overall, notable improvement was shown statewide by fourth and eighth graders on the LEAP test, four percent increases in both.
The results were released Tuesday by the Louisiana Department of Education.
"The news is good this year," said Ollie Tyler, acting state superintendent of education.
Tyler's theme, that Louisiana is on the right course, was echoed by Board of Elementary and Secondary Education (BESE) President Penny Dastugue, who agreed with Tyler's sense of urgency and emphasized the need to move forward with even greater determination to implement critical reforms.
"We've repeatedly said Louisiana isn't letting up - and these gains are proof we mean it," Dastugue said. "But let's be clear. We have to move faster. Despite our progress, more than 230,000 students aren't at grade level. They'll either spend the next few weeks in summer school, or worse, they'll progress to the next grade behind their peers. So while I'm grateful for the hard work of our educators, students, families, and communities, I hope this news today, which again proves we can do better, inspires our citizens and communities to weigh in on critical decisions that will have a profound impact on our future direction and progress."
The GEE results were not as great. For 10th graders, 230,000 students still perform below grade level or roughly one third of the state's nearly 700,000 public school students.
The barometer for schools, however, have been the LEAP test and those results were just part of the good news.
Results of spring testing show:
• Up from 76 percent at this time last year, 80 percent of fourth graders passed the LEAP test.
• 74 percent of eighth graders passed the test, which is up from 70 percent in 2010.
The good news is also a welcomed surprise as last year's dropped slightly last year, and the improvements are being attributed by state officials to new statewide programs like literacy programs in the early grades and special aid for low-performing eighth graders.
Gains shown by fourth and eighth graders mean that about 2,300 more students passed the LEAP this year, according to Scott Norton, assistant state education superintendent.
"We think that is great news," said Norton.
Nearly 97,000 fourth and eighth graders took the tests this year. The LEAP test, as it is known, is the Louisiana Educational Assessment Program and results from the test are broken down into five categories–advanced, mastery, basic, approaching basic and unsatisfactory. For a student in the fourth or eighth grade to continue on to the next grade, fifth and ninth respectively, he or she must achieve at least a "basic" level in math or English and "approaching basic" in the other.
Locally, Acadia Parish's fourth graders improved by three percent as 74 percent of students met promotional standards this spring. Meanwhile, 69 percent of eighth graders in the parish met promotional standards, down four percent from last year.
Of the students that took the iLEAP test in third grade this spring, 89 percent of the students achieved a level of approaching basic or higher with 5 percent achieving advanced, 19 percent - mastery, 47 percent - basic and 18 percent - approaching basic in English language arts. In math, 87 percent achieved approaching basic or better, with 8 percent achieving advanced, 16 percent - mastery, 44 percent - basic and 18 percent - approaching basic.
Fifth graders who took the iLEAP also had good results as only 10 percent of the students that took the English language arts portion of test scored unsatisfactory while 13 percent scored unsatisfactory on the math portion of the test.
Sixth graders who took the iLEAP did well this spring with only 9 percent achieving below the approaching basic level in English and 18 percent recording an unsatisfactory in math.
Seventh graders also did well this year on the iLEAP. Of those who took the test about 8 percent scored an unsatisfactory in English and 14 percent scored an unsatisfactory in math.
For those who took the LEAP tests in the parish 89 percent of fourth graders achieved an approaching basic or above in English and 84 percent in math scored an approaching basic or above.
Eighth graders did well also, with 94 percent scoring either advanced, mastery, basic or approaching basic in English and only 18 percent scored unsatisfactory in math.
The GEE results, while not fantastic overall, did show that almost 90 percent of students tested scored approaching basic or higher in both math and English.
The Acadia Parish School Board pointed to the big gains in the English language arts sector at all levels of testing. Like those with the LDE, the board believes they are seeing the benefits of the reading program implemented several years ago. The superintendent's office also pointed that students' progress is being maintained each year as they move on to other grades and how at the high school level, the parish is outperforming the state average. The only cause for concern appeared to be at the eighth grade level, but the APSB says that will, be addressed over the summer with remediation and so on to better prepare students for the high school level.
As always, the APSB will use these results to make decisions to help students next year and in the future.

How newspapers can still grow in hard times
It takes imagination, innovation and embracing risks
February 15, 2013
There has lots of gloom and doom talk about the newspaper industry in recent years, with steep drops in advertising and falling circulation. But for some papers those trends have provided a spark to innovate. The Pew Research Center's Project for Excellence in Journalism recently examined four newspapers that have defied the trend of declining circulation and revenue. The four newspapers profiled (The Deseret News, The Columbia (Tenn.) Daily Herald, The Santa Rosa (Calif.) Press Democrat and The (Fla.) Naples Daily News) have used different strategies to grow their circulation and advertising. The common theme has been trying new approaches, whether reorganizing the editorial focus, as in Deseret, or reaching out to teach small advertisers about digital, as in Columbia. Clark Gilbert, president and CEO at The Deseret News, and Mark Palmer, publisher at The Columbia Daily Herald, talk to Media Life about how their papers bucked downward trends, where they found inspiration for their innovations, and what the hurdles have been.
What were the biggest challenges in revamping the newsroom structure?
Gilbert: Sometimes letting go is harder than starting something new.
Initially our teams wanted to try to do everything with less resources. Over the last two years, our best journalists have begun to see how having an editorial focus allows them to go deep and do the type of award-winning journalism they love to do in the first place.
Why is your transformation unique to Salt Lake City and to your ownership?
Gilbert: Certainly I don't expect people to have the same editorial focus as the Deseret News. The concept is universal — decide what you can be the best in the world at, invest in those areas, and lower your cost in more commodity news.
We want to be known for faith and family like The Washington Post is known for politics.
We see smart publishers doing this on topics that resonate with their own audiences. For example, Chuck Peters in Cedar Rapids is doing this on healthcare and education, the Sarasota Herald Tribune did this by focusing on seniors and insurance, and won a Pulitzer for it.
On the business model side, there is nothing we are doing that some other newspaper group isn't doing somewhere else.
For example, our channel innovation is similar to some of the work happening at McClatchy. Our digital agency is modeled off of some of the innovative work happening at Morris and Gannett. Our travel and bookings business was inspired by the Las Vegas Sun and their investment in vegas.com. Our content innovation model reflects lessons from legacy magazine groups like the Atlantic.com and Forbes.com.
Of course we benchmark web-only competitors as well. The point is that the principles are robust even while the specific setting is different across our organization as well as others.
How much would you estimate you have extended the readership of the paper over the past few years?
Gilbert: We group print readership dramatically with the launch of our national edition, which initially grew by 80 percent.
Still we grew circulation again this year by over 15 percent, which made us the second-fastest-growing paper in the U.S. Our digital reach is also growing rapidly, both directly to Deseretnews.com and through our syndication efforts.
Why have you been so quick to embrace alternative forms of revenue? Why do you think other papers have held back?
Palmer: Newspapers don't have a choice but to change and embrace any technology that might help in our current productivity but will also help in bringing in new revenue streams. The tough part is coming up with a business plan that facilitates the change and doesn't draw resources from the primary revenue-producing area, namely the newspaper.
What is the key to growing revenue at a time when print is suffering?
Palmer: Think of the customer first. What will help them ring the cash register? Attempt to only introduce products that theoretically help the customer the most. Then attempt to have a sales force who understands what we are trying to do and are themselves sold on the products being offered digitally.
And finally, don't be afraid to group products in digital and print into one buy.
How do you connect with smaller advertisers that perhaps are not as familiar with digital advertising?
Palmer: Totally an education process. This takes multiple sales calls and in most cases, four-legged calls using their existing sales rep teamed with a digital sales rep. Their existing print rep is someone the customer trusts, and the digital sales rep provides knowledge of the new digital products.
How have online contests become a revenue producer for you?
Palmer: Most papers found out long ago that when the newspapers come up with ways to interact with the customer, both on the advertising side and on the reader's side, the better we can keep a customer.
The contests we produce are fantastic ways to have that customer interaction. The advertisers are getting name recognition in sponsoring the contests and we are making a little extra revenue. Win-win with a little fun thrown in as a bonus for the readers and the newspaper.

The Carolina Panthers notched their second victory of the season as they overcame the Washington Redskins 21-13 in Week 9.
The Panthers took the lead with 24 seconds remaining in the first quarter and never surrendered that lead. The offensive line performed well in pass and run blocking situations, as the Panthers averaged 6.6 yards per play.
On the other end, the Redskins averaged just 4.5 yards per play, as the Panthers defensive line turned in their second straight impressive performance.
Unlike last week, the pass rush didn't dissipate in the second half. Charles Johnson and Greg Hardy made RGIII run for his life late into the fourth quarter, as the two defensive ends combined to sack the rookie phenom 3.5 times.
There were far more positives than negatives for Carolina in Week 9, which was a refreshing change of pace from what has been a disappointing season.

Paris Vacations
Originally a simple Roman outpost and now arguably the cultural capital of Europe, the city of Paris has plenty to offer the vacationing family. No trip to the city of lights and love is complete without a stop at the Eiffel Tower, both to marvel at the structure itself and the views from its three observation platforms. Walking through the Louvre is also a must, and the Hard Rock Cafe Paris is only a block away. Another common destination for traveling families is the palace of Versailles, with its massive gardens and famous Hall of Mirrors, loved by kids. Most anyone involved in tourism in Paris speaks English, so little knowledge of the local language is required. Given the historic sights and mild summer weather, there is no doubt why Paris is one of the premier family vacation destinations in the world.

In the hustle and bustle of last week's labor-related drama, we failed to note two NFC North teams have each positioned themselves to part ways with a long-time specialist who could be more difficult to replace than you might realize.
MaynardThis much we can say for sure: Whenever NFL owners and players agree on a new collective bargaining agreement (CBA), Minnesota Vikings place-kicker Ryan Longwell and Chicago Bears punter Brad Maynard will be unrestricted free agents. Nothing would prevent them from re-signing at that point, but typically NFL teams get their priority players under contract before the market opens.
There have been no reports of negotiations with Longwell or Maynard, let alone the framework of an agreement, as we discussed in Tuesday's SportsNation chat. Read into that what you will.
Maynard is 37 and Longwell will turn 37 in August, but gray hair at their positions just as often connotes aptitude as it does failing ability. It's true that Maynard's 35.2-yard net average ranked 30th among NFL punters last season, but he did drop 24 punts inside the 20-yard line. Veteran savvy and experience are as valuable to kicking specialists as any position on the game, and Maynard's career total of 407 punts downed inside the 20 are the second-most in the NFL over the past 35 seasons.
If you're the Bears, you might be able to make a statistical argument to consider additional options. Will they find someone they can trust as much as Maynard? I'm not sure. But in Longwell's case, you can't even make a statistical case for his ouster.
Longwell, in fact, is coming off two of the best seasons of his career. He converted 26 of 28 field goal attempts in 2009 and 17 of 18 last season, a combined conversion percentage of 93.4. Thanks to the pro-football-reference.com database, we can put those numbers in context: Longwell has two of the 24 best seasons by an NFL place kicker, based on conversion percentage of 15 or more attempts, since the 1970 merger.
In terms of field-goal kicking, at least, there has been nothing to suggest Longwell is close to the end of his career. So why would the Vikings replace him?
Again, I'm not certain they intend to. But it's possible they want better kickoffs, a concern that led to an ill-fated decision to sign kickoff specialist Rhys Lloyd. Perhaps they have identified another free agent, or a potential draft pick, that could make them younger at the position.
But anyone who watched the Vikings during the gap between Gary Anderson's final season in 2002 and Longwell's arrival in 2006 know how difficult it is to identify and develop a reliable place-kicker. Game management changes dramatically when you know your kicker is nearly automatic from inside 50 yards, which Longwell has been in recent seasons.
Some day, the Vikings will have to replace Longwell. Perhaps they'll time it, albeit arbitrarily, to his age and now-expired contract. But it should be pointed out that some of the NFL's best place-kickers are about the same age as Longwell, from David Akers (36) to Adam Vinatieri (38) to John Kasay (41) to Jay Feely (34).
I realize the Vikings have some significant decisions to make this offseason. Vice president of player personnel Rick Spielman has talked about fielding a younger team in 2011. But parting ways with a 90-percent field goal kicker just because he is 37? Not sure about that one -- especially when an heir apparent isn't yet, uh, apparent.

we must be honest and admit boxing is full of corrupt and incompetent people. these people deserve representation in the hall as well. they are the best at what they do. for this reason i think joe cortez should be inducted into the hall of fame. sven ottke and his 114-113 judges get my vote as well.

Funding Unsuccessful
This project's funding goal was not reached on May 16, 2012.
Transport your digital devices in retro analog style! A super cool, 3D cassette-styled case for Macbook, iPad and other devices.
This project's funding goal was not reached on May 16, 2012.
We reckon The Cassatchel is the coolest laptop bag on any street. It's no simple printed laptop bag... the cassette design is a fully molded 3D detail that's an integral part of the form.
The Problem:
There are a thousand laptop bags out there. But they're all really boring! They kinda make you feel like you're off to work in the movie "Office Space"... fluoro-lit office cubes, fuzzy divider panels, tiled carpet and TPS reports.
Our Solution:
For the creative technology types among us, there's The Cassatchel. An analog take on this most digital of products!
It's super-light, eliminating the dreaded "one-sided laptop limp", and reducing shoulder strain. It's made from formed impact foam, with a tough polyester blend exterior. This combination looks great and protects your precious devices from hard knocks.
But best of all, you're rocking your digital device around in 80's analog style. Profess your true-school credentials with a future retro selection.
The Cassatchel is now at final prototype stage. We have the manufacturers sorted and ready to tool up... but we need help to make the molds. The final production bags will have deeper, sharper details than the prototype you see here, for super extra coolness!
Your awesome Kickstarter support will go toward these very important things:
We're so close to making this fun, inspiring product a reality. Now we just need your help with the final step... production!
Thanks a million for being a part of this... we hope you enjoy your Cassatchel as much as we've enjoyed creating it.
Music credit: Swedish Ladies by Jonay
For everyone outside of New Zealand, yes you will need to include international shipping. The Cassatchel is being made and assembled all in NZ so I can personally be sure that it's of a high standard of awesomeness just for you.
To buy more than one iPad Cassatchel sleeve please add $45 to your pledge + $5 for international shipping on each additional sleeve.
To buy more than one Macbook/Laptop Cassatchel please add another $60 to your pledge + $5 for international shipping on each additional Cassatchel.

The 2016 Foxford Walking Festival will not now take place.
The Walking Festival committee, have decided not to hold a Walking Festival in 2016. The committee are not in a position to organise the Festival this year due to personal commitments, and the work load involved. It is intended to reconvene later in 2016 with a view to reconstituting an expanded festival committee to organise and plan the 2017, and subsequent Walking Festivals.
In the meantime, please browse the site to see where we went in 2015.
Foxford Festivals Weekend 2015
What a weekend! From fishing to fireworks, rowing to rambing, owls to The Ox and everything in between. The Burger Bar sold out of burgers, it took two busses to get all the walkers to Nephin, the sun shon - mostly - and a good time seemed to be had by all.
See the Foxford Ramblers Facebook page for loads of pictures from the walks and various events.
Roll on next year!
Foxford Walking Festival would like to thank our generous sponsors!
Download information:
Check out other links about the festival
Note from Chairperson of Foxford Walking Festival 2015
"Following discussions with the Riverfest organisers, we agreed to hold both festivals over the same weekend as we felt there was a need to provide entertainment for walkers in the afternoons/evenings and Riverfest fulfils this need perfectly. Energetic walkers will now be able to enjoy Riverfest activities on their return to the town on both afternoons and people attending Riverfest will have an opportunity to sample the beauty of the Mayo countryside on organised walks. We are confident that the two festivals will complement each other and the two committees are working closely together to ensure the success of both".
For further information contact firstname.lastname@example.com or you can contact us via our Facebook page.
Comment from Brian Quinn, Client Services Manager, Fáilte Ireland
"Foxford Walking Festival is an ideal example of a community run festival. As an experience off the Wild Atlantic Way, it draws in visitors from near and far, to enjoy the glorious scenery and incomparable welcome of north Mayo. I'd like to wish the organisers and Foxford Ramblers Walking Club all the very best"

Julie continued to work in production accounting for both NY and LA based shows such as "Scrubs," "Hope & Faith" and HBO's "Entourage," until 2005 when she became involved in LA's burgeoning New Media community. Julie began her own New Media production company where she created a weekly podcast, an award winning mini-sitcom web series, as well as produced work for clients such as TBS.com, and promotional web videos for independent music artists.

Orchard Park, NY (WGR 550) -- Over the course of the past three seasons, the Buffalo Bills have had some of the worst defenses in not only the NFL in that given year, but in their franchise's history as well. A common complaint throughout that rocky tenure was an overall inability to put pressure on an opposing quarterback. The Bills certainly hope that changes with the addition of Mike Pettine as defensive coordinator.

Pacquiao vs. Hatton Referee is Named - Kenny Bayless
By Ronnie Nathanielsz
Kenny Bayless has been named referee for the "Battle of East and West" between Filipino boxing hero Manny Pacquiao and IBO light welterweight champion Ricky "The Hitman" Hatton at the MGM Grand in Las Vegas on May 2.
Nevada State Athletic Commission executive director Keith Kizer informed BoxingScene.com, insidesports.ph, Standard Today and Viva Sports that aside from Bayless, the NSAC had chosen Mic hael Permick, Glenn Trowbridge and CJ Ross as the three judges for the eagerly awaited showdown.
Bayless was the referee who cautioned Juan Manuel Marquez three times for low blows in the fierce rematch against Pacquiao on March 15, 2008 and also served as the third man in the ring in Pacquiao's rematch against Erik Morales which the Filipino won by a tenth round TKO on January 21, 2006.
Bayless was also referee in the Hatton-Paulie Malignaggi title fight last November 22 in which he called a halt in the 11th round as Hatton inflicted a bad beating on Malignaggi.
Boxing Confidential once referred to Bayless as the only referee who should be used in Las Vegas super bouts praising Bayless for always being in control of the bout "with the highest degree of fairness, firmness and accuracy."
Aside from the two Pacquiao fight he refereed, Bayless also handled "The World Awaits" super-fight between Oscar de la Hoya and Floyd Mayweather Jr.
In a long list of major fights, Bayless was also referee for Roy Jones Jr vs Antonio Tarver and De La Hoya vs Bernard Hopkins in 2004, Shane Mosley vs Fernando Vargas in 2006 and Miguel Cotto vs Antonio Margarito in 2008.
Bayless showed his firmness in Bobby Pacquiao's distressing performance against Hecto Velasquez in November 2006 when he disqualified Manny Pacquiao's younger brother in the waning seconds of round eleven for numerous low blows .
Judge Glenn Trowbridge who was an official in the Pacquiao-Barrera rematch on October 6, 2007 agreed with his colleague Jerry Roth who turned in a lopsided 118-109 scorecard for Pacquiao while the third judge Tom Schreck had it by a much closer 115-112 margin. Trowbridge was also a judge when Pacquiao knocked out Morales in the third fight of their classic trilogy on November 18, 2006. Trowbridge was also a judge in the Hatton-Malignaggi title fight.
CJ Ross was a judge when Pacquiao won the WBC lightweight title with a 9th round demolition of David Diaz on June 28, 2008.
Michael Pernick was invited by the Florida State Boxing Commission sometime in March 2005 to a three-day seminar for referees, judges and ringside physicians at the Sheraton Suites in Fort Lauderdale where officials working in Floroida were mandated to attend.
The boxing sessions were conducted by Pernick and Peter Tremeterra who were both described as "world class officials."
I can't wait to see Hatton lying in the canvas with both legs spread wide open seeiong his wife and family crying and seeing Hatton on a stretcher. Hatton fans will become ALT again and registered on June of 2008…Comment by FLY TY on 04-17-2009
i think the biggest decision the ref will have....is WHEN to stop the fight. contrary to popular belief, i think there'll be very little holding. i honestly see a cotto-margarito type fight....Comment by S A M U R A I on 04-16-2009
Disagree. The referee is [B]vital[/B] in this fight. It could determine the outcome.Comment by FLY TY on 04-16-2009
don't matter....you can throw earl hebner in there if you want to.....i have a feeling the ref will play a very small role in the fight.Comment by Jean28 on 04-16-2009
Great choice for ref. Now lets see some punches:boxing::boxing:Post a Comment - View More User Comments (72)

This 40% off promotion from Offers.com was a deal breaker! Book was not available at local Barnes & Nobel store, so I ordered it on line with this discount. It came to about $4.00 cheaper than Amazon. Highly recommend! Thank you for the discount coupon. I am a teacher and one of our current high school students wrote this book. I want to read it and share with other students to encourage them to read and write!

Darrell Grant
's second album as a bandleader is called
The New Bop
, a title that sums up his simultaneously backward-looking and forward-thinking aesthetic.
is steeped in the traditions of bop and post-bop jazz, but he also has a thorough knowledge of both R&B and straight pop (he's worked as musical director for both
Little Anthony
Lesley Gore
) and a cerebral,
Bill Evans
-like edge to his soloing that suggests a working knowledge of 20th century classical composers as well. All of these influences combine into a style that's solidly traditional but doesn't smack of
Wynton Marsalis
-style conservatism.
Born in 1962 in Philadelphia,
moved to Denver, CO, as a young child. Starting piano lessons before his teens,
was enough of a prodigy that he joined the Boulder, CO-based
Pearl Street Jazz Band
, a young but internationally renowned traditional New Orleans-style combo, at the impossibly tender age of 15, touring worldwide with the group for two years.
won a scholarship to the Eastman School of Music in Rochester, NY, at the age of 17; while at Eastman (where his classmates included future novelist Nicholson Baker)
focused on performance studies over theory, which he covered in his graduate studies in jazz theory and composition at the University of Miami.
Relocating to New York in the mid-'80s,
skirted past the then-dominant M-Base clique in the local jazz scene, instead taking a series of low-profile sideman gigs. After a long stint with
Betty Carter
worked with luminaries like
Chico Freeman
Greg Osby
before finally stepping out as a bandleader for the first time. 1994's
Black Art
was well-reviewed and sold respectably, and the following year's
The New Bop
was an even bigger critical success. 1997's
Twilight Stories
was released on
Joel Dorn
's 32 Jazz label;
's appearance on that label, devoted primarily to classic reissues, cemented the esteem in which bop devotees hold him. The lengthy short story written by
in the liner notes of 1999's
Smokin' Java
, his first published piece of prose, is a thinly veiled autobiography about the cross-country move of a jazz pianist from New York to Portland, OR, and his eventual addiction to coffee as a result of the brew's cultural dominance in the Pacific Northwest. The lighthearted, twisty compositions reflect the bright, tongue-in-cheek tone of the short story, for which the album functions as a suitably caffeinated soundtrack. The ambitious double-disc suite called
Truth and Reconciliation
appeared from Origin Records in 2007.
had moved to Portland in 1997 to accept a teaching post at Portland State University. Besides his duties as an educator, scholar, and bandleader,
also plays piano in drummer
Tony Williams
' quintet and appears on numerous albums as a sideman.
