INTRODUCTION/ABOUT ****************************** Greetings :) I'm Chamelion, the writer of this (albeit bland) FAQ. This is my first FAQ in general so that's why it doesn't look that impressive. Sorry :( This FAQ is a listing off all the eggs found throughout the game, their appearance, and what their contents look like in the game. Some of these items are necessary in certain Missions, and I'll list them there if so. Note, that most of these items are for Multiplayer use, although nearly all the eggs (with exceptions) can be found there. Some of these are items and I'll say (ITEM) after the name to indicate you have to activate it with Y. These also have a limited use, with the exception of the butterflies. Tameable beasts, labelled (TAME), need to be touched in order for them to follow you. You can use their special attack for a while, but eventually they leave you (You know this if they make two of their guttural sounds). You can also switch beasts if the need be. It's also noticeable that they have a red cloth used as a type of clothing on all but the Sonic Team eggs. Mountable beasts, (MOUNT), are exceptional. You have to jump on their backs to use them, and they take your damage until you hop off. (Need confirmation if they dissappear when taken too much damage) You can not have a Tameable beast with you nor can you carry an egg while you're riding the mount. Each mount has a special attack that (except for Kaboot) can be charged up for extra "oomph". The section labelled "Found" are the FIRST locations of each of the eggs I find, usually in Billy's stages. However it is possible to find these eggs in an earlier level than what I listed or as another character. There are four parts to this list: The appearance of the egg, the content's look, its effect, and where to find it FIRST. Before I forget, I will allow you to use this FAQ or portions of it, but please note that it's best to include my name (above) in those portions. Thankies. Now then... the list. ****************************** IV. EGG LIST ****************************** 1. Fire Comb -Appearance: White egg with red chicken combs (the things on top of roosters' heads) scattered on it. -Look: Red Chicken Comb, with flames coming off of it. -Effect: Both the comb and any egg you pick up thereafter will be engulfed in flames. This increases the attack power of the egg, for as long as you have the comb. -Found: Forest Village Mission 3, to the left after using the first green ring to get to the three tall pillars near the start. 2. Water Comb -Appearance: White egg with blue chicken combs scattered on it. -Look: Blue Chicken Comb, with bubbles coming off it. -Effect: Same with the Fire Comb, only bubbles emerge from both egg and Comb. Increases attack. -Found: Forest Village Mission 3, area with the three pillars, near the railing that overlooks the cliff. 3. Lightning Comb -Appearance: White Egg with yellow chicken combs scattered on it. -Look: Yellow Chicken Comb, this one with arcs of electricity bouncing around on it. -Effect: You guessed it, Comb and Egg are electrified and increases your attack. -Found: Blizzard Castle Mission 4, Next to the deep Icy pit that leads to Bamtam. 4. Ice Comb -Appearance: White egg with purple chicken combs scattered on it. Sense a pattern here? -Look: Purple Chicken comb with purple mist emerging from it. -Effect: UNLIKE the previous three, the chicken comb has mist coming from it; the egg, however, is encased in ice. The ice is gone when you release it, though. Yes, there is an attack increase. -Found: It's next to you, if not in front of you, in Pirate Island Mission 2. 5. Wind Comb -Appearance: White egg with green chicken combs scattered on it. -Look: Green comb with a mini tornado surrounding it. -Effect: The egg will have leaves flying around it. Also increases attack. -Found: It's the very egg in front of you in Forest Village Mission 2. 6. Iron Comb -Appearance: White Egg with orange chicken combs scattered on it. -Look: NOT an orange Chicken Comb. Rather, it looks silvery and sparkly. -Effect: The egg becomes steely when you pick it up, looking like SSBM's Metal Box. Looks really cool. Still same attack increase, though. -Found: It's tucked away in a corner in Dino Mountain Mission 1 after crossing the lava river via the pillars sticking out of the lava. 7. Light Comb -Appearance: White egg with gray chicken combs scattered on it. -Look: The comb is glowing yellow, with sparkles coming from it. -Effect: The egg also flashes yellow (like it's a full egg) and increases its attack. -Found: In Dino Mountain Mission 4, immediately after landing from going through the second set of blue rings (right by the small hill leading down). 8. Wings -Appearance: Yellow egg with a feather in the middle. -Look: Pair of white wings. -Effect: You can jump twice if you don't have an egg! How nice! -Found: If you play as Rolly in Forest Village, look behind you when you start to find the egg. 9. Booster Appearance: Red with a blue line near the top. There's red stars scattered about. -Look: A red Jetpack. -Effect: WOW! If you thought the wings were good, these are better! By pressing A to jump, then holding A, you can hover for a long time! Downside? You can't be holding an egg nor can you stop in place. -Found: As Bamtam in Pirate Island, the egg is found in front of the cannon leading to the skull cave (cave where you had to shoot into the skull eyes in Mission 2) 10. Paraloop (ITEM) -Appearance: Purple egg with circles at top and bottom. -Look: A yellow molecule. -Effect: The list says it gives eggs the power of light. What really happens is there's a cone of light that surrounds you as you move. No other known effect. -Found: In Mission 6 of Sand Ruins, you'll find it at about the third or fourth platform from the start. 11. Thorn Egg (ITEM) -Appearance: Blue egg with blue circles at top and bottom. -Look: Regular egg, but it's grey and has spikes. -Effect: For a short time, your eggs will sprout thorns! This is really a good thing for those big enemies that can break an egg in one shot (frogs, however, have to be excluded, since they have a range attack). And yes, it does increase your attack. -Found: In the middle of the River tunnel in Forest Village Mission 3. The river tunnel, if you're not sure, is the tunnel that's blocked off by the large rocks. 12. Speed Shoes -Appearance: Blue camoflauge Egg with yellow spots. -Look: Pair of blue shoes. -Effect: WOAH! Sonic better watch out! You'll be running twice as fast as you normally would, as long as you have those shoes! -Found: As Chick in Pirate Island (the Coin challenge), it's immediately to your right after landing on the beach from the long ramp at the start. 13. Bomb -Appearance: Black egg with red top and bottom. Has red and white BOOM icons. -Look: Bomb with a long fuse. These are the same bombs in the "Rescue character" missions. -Effect: Throw a bomb at someone and avoid the blast range, or you'll die in one hit. Best used in Multiplayer. -Found: As Bamtam in Forest Village, look behind the hut (not the windmill!) in the lake area. 14. Spring Shoes -Appearance: Orange camoflauge egg. Has bits of yellow and dark orange in it. -Look: Clown-like yellow shoes with wings at the heels. -Effect: your character can now jump about the same height as the egg bounce, if you're not holding an egg. -Found: One of the first eggs you'll see in Circus Park's Mission 4, in the area after the ramp. Look for it against the platform where The boss portal rested on. 15. Circus Hat -Appearance: Purple camoflauge egg. -Look: If you've played NIGHTS or Sonic Pinball Party, it's the very hat the male jester wears. -Effect: You can stand on top of the egg and move like a clown act! You can also use this to cross water and sandy areas! (Note: This is essential in the "Secret of the Waterfall" Mission in Forest Village) -Found: In Forest Village Mission 5, right next to the river where you start. 16. Psychic Hat -Appearance: Yellow/orange camoflauge egg. -Look: Wierd... looks like a yellow helmet with a pole on top of it, surrounded by rings. -Effect: By pressing the B button you can actually move the egg around to run over enemies! Hit B again to return to normal. Kinda neat. (NOTE: This is very useful for those combos, too. Just run them over and they count as an Egg Throw!) -Found: In Forest Village as Rolly, look for a stump with fruit on it, and a red egg near the stump. Beyond that you'll find a Bee guarding the egg, located to the left. 17. Heart Hat -Appearance: White with grey outlines of hearts on the top and bottom. -Look: Pink Helmet with a bigger pink heart on top of it. -Effect: I love this one. Over time you'll slowly regain health! -Found: Dino Mountain Mission 5. If you climb up the wall (with the small ledge) and see a dino head to your left, climb up the pillar that would, in Mission 2, lead to the same dinosaur. You'll find the hat -- or rather the egg, on top of that pillar. 18. Bat -Appearance: White with blue and yellow spots. -Look: A purple bat. -Effect: The list says "sucks blood" or something like that. What it really does is it takes two full combs off of your life (this CAN be countered with the Heart Hat). It also takes away your tamed beast, and surrounds you with a purple aura. -Found: Giant Palace Mission 4, next to the button leading to the watery pool room. 19. Crow -Appearance: White Egg with blue and Yellow dots -Look: A Black Crow. -Effect: Makes the surrounding area darken, making it really difficult to see anything ahead of you. -Found: In Mission 5 of Blizzard Castle, there's an egg in the snowy area where you had to build the snowman's head in Mission 3. 20.

Recky (TAME) -Appearance: Yellow camoflauge egg, small marks. -Look: Yellow monkey with bat wings.

Richie (TAME) -Appearance: Purple camoflauge egg, small marks. -Look: Spiky purple seal. Wears a red ribbon around his neck. -Effect: He splits into three, all covered in ice.

Peliwan (TAME) -Appearance: Green camoflauge egg, small marks. -Look: Green pelican wearing a crude caveman tunic with a red bowtie, and big floppy ears. When he's not moving he's standing still, sleeping. It's cute because a bubble forms over his bill when he sleeps. -Effect: He forms a tornado around himself and goes in a spiral movement. The tornado "explodes" when he collides into anything unbreakable. The spiral movement also allows him to temporarily clear the fog in one room in Sand Ruins mission 2. -Found: In the area where you found The golden egg, In Dino Mountain Mission 2, You'll find it on a tall platform that overlooks the large lava ocean. 25. Runny (TAME) -Appearance: Orange, almost yellow camoflauge egg, small marks. -Look: An orange bear with a purple/pink tortoise shell. She wears a bow on her head and a red collar. -Effect: She moves forward, stomps. Pause. Moves forward, stomps. Pause. Moves forward, grows BIG, stomps HARD, returns to you. Rather slow in this way so it may not be good to use her unless you're in a small area. -Found: On the platform before the Anchor bridge in Pirate Island Mission 5. 26. Rabbish (TAME) -Appearance: White camoflauge egg, small marks. -Look: A wierd combination of a chicken and a rabbit. Wears a red ribbon around one of her feet. -Effect: I like this one.

NIGHTS (TAME) -Appearance: White Egg with a Sonic Team logo on it. -Look: A laid-back jester who wears white and purple (although it looks pink in the game) clothing. He first appeared in NIGHTS Into Dreams for the Sega Saturn. -Effect: Slighty the same as Biboo's, he glides down to hit nearby enemies but he then arcs upward and around before returning to you. -Found: Before the door leading to the Dark Pool room in Giant Palace's Mission 4, you'll see it on the ledge with the three dog... creatures. Requires 185 coins. 63. Amigo (TAME) -Appearance: White egg with a Sonic Team logo on it. -Look: If you haven't played "Samba de Amigo", he's an orange monkey with a yellow sombrero on his head. he holds two green maracas in his hands. -Effect: He briefly dissappears as he moves forward, ramming into anyone in the way. -Found: In Circus Park's Mission 4, next to the first caged Cat. Requires 105 coins. 64. Super Clippen (TAME) -Appearance: Metallic blue egg with a rainbow design on it. -Look: A Clippen with a mix of blues, greens, and yellows. White bandana around the neck. -Effect: Same as regular Clippen's, but when it hits the ground it sends out a bigger wave and even reaches above him to hit the flying crows. -Found: As Bamtam in pirate island, go the the area you land in after the hole-riddled halfpipe. If you look across the ocean you will find a blue ring and a green ring by themselves. Strange, you're wondering? Well, you can get to a hidden wooden platform you can't see from that location by one of three ways: Booster (located next to the cannon to Skull cave), Circus Hat (located in the walled island or the Captain's Treasure beach), or by Kaboot (on beach with a palm tree as a centerpiece; recommended since the area's also riddled with sharks). Head to the platform by any of these three ways and you'll see the egg on the platform. Return to the mainlands by the green ring. 65. Super Recky (TAME) -Appearance: Metallic red egg with a rainbow design on it. -Look: A Recky with a mix of reds and oranges on it. White bandana around the neck. -Effect: A much FASTER version of Recky's lightning attack! -Found: The most elusive egg that's been commonly asked for in the GameFAQS Message board, is found in Blizzard Castle's fifth mission. Find and hatch the Booster egg near the frozen pond (which is filled with enemies under the ice) and stand on the ledge where the egg was. If you look to the left you'll see the Ice machine/windmill in the distance. Jump and glide all the way over to the windmill, and land on the second level of the building. The egg is between two snowmen. 66. Chicken Suit -Appearance: White Egg with the Courage Emblem on it. -Look: In the Egg List it shows the pieces of the costume. -Effect: He automatically equips it. -Found: Forest Village Mission 1. Don't need to say anything else since it HAS to be the first thing you pick up. (It's also the only one you don't need to hatch) 67. Oma-Oma -Appearance: Gold egg with the Courage Emblem on it. -Look: Big rooster that wears a green robe. He's the elder of Forest Village. -Effect: Makes Forest Village sunny again. -Found: Near the end of Mission 1 in Forest Village. 68. Uri-Uri -Appearance: Gold Egg with the Courage Emblem on it. -Look: Rooster that looks like a pirate. Even has an eye patch! He's the elder of pirate Island. -Effect: Makes Pirate Island sunny again. -Found: About halfway through Mission 1. 69. Ura-Ura -Appearance: Gold Egg with the Courage Emblem on it. -Look: Rooster that looks like a cave... uh, chicken. He's the elder of Dino Mountain. -Effect: Makes Dino Mountain sunny again. -Found: Almost near the beginning of Dino Mountain's Mission 1. On top of that ledge. 70. Ponee -Appearance: Gold Egg with the Courage Emblem on it. -Look: Only female chicken, wears a purple parka. She's the elder of Blizzard Castle. -Effect: Makes Blizzard Castle sunny again, but doesn't stop the snow. -Found: If you read where the Super Fruit is located, believe it or not the gold egg is on top of the tower where the fruit is hiding near. 71. Allani -Appearance: Gold Egg with the Courage Emblem on it. -Look: Rooster dressed in a red ringleader's outfit. He even has a handlebar moustache. He's the elder of Circus Park. -Effect: Makes Circus Park sunny again. -Found: At about halfway, you'll go into a trapeze ring into a series of blue "cannon" rings. It's surrounded by egg switches. 72. Mera-Mera -Appearance: Gold Egg with the Courage Emblem on it. -Look: Rooster dressed like a priest, or one of those mayan chieftans. He's the elder of Sand Ruins. -Effect: Makes Sand Ruins sunny again. -Found: At the top of the pyramid-like ruin you begin at the base of. ****************************** V.

Petty Gets Cozy For 7-Night Stand
By Neva Chonin
The San Francisco Chronicle — March 9, 1999
Heartbreakers, fans in Fillmore lovefest
The opening concert of Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers' sold- out, seven-night stand at the Fillmore seemed like a giant high school dance, where everyone knew every word to nearly every song in the band's repertoire. As the lights dimmed for the opening act at Sunday's show, a disheveled figure in an untucked shirt and black leather vest schlepped to the microphone. "Um, hi, how ya doin'?" Petty said, grinning at the packed floor. "I'll be back in a li'l while. Right now, I just want to introduce you to one of the world's greatest singer-songwriters." Opener Lucinda Williams made her appearance, and the evening's headliner trotted off to a wave of applause. Later, Williams' band joined the crowd watching Petty's show. It was that kind of night.
Since releasing the first Heartbreakers album in 1976, the Los Angeles-based rocker has boasted one of his strongest followings in the Bay Area, where his brand of boogie-based roots rock strikes a neat balance that attracts both back- to-basics purists and those who live for the next onstage jam.
Three years have passed since Petty's previous full-length release with the Heartbreakers, "She's the One," and two since his last series of concerts at the Fillmore.
Fans were hankering for new material, and they weren't disappointed. The Heartbreakers — Petty, guitarist Mike Campbell, keyboardist Benmont Tench, bassist Howie Epstein and drummer Steve Ferrone — premiered a selection of songs from their upcoming album, "Echo" (due next month), including "Swingin' " and the first single, "Free Girl Now." Petty also gave a crash course in rock 'n' roll history. After opening with Chuck Berry's "Around and Around," he went on to scatter other classic R&B and rockabilly samplings through the set, from Bo Diddley's "Diddy Wah Diddy" to a note- perfect rendition of the vintage instrumental "Telstar." But mostly the Heartbreakers just noodled and jammed through favorites from their two-decade repertoire. "I Won't Back Down," "Mary Jane's Last Dance," the Byrds-inspired "American Girl" and the spare, acoustic "Angel Dream" were all given lengthy workouts. On "You Don't Know How It Feels," the audience gleefully provided the repeated "Let's roll another joint" refrain while a small cloud of smoke wafted toward the ceiling.
The band members were as ebullient as their fans, trading quips and guitar licks, chatting and improvising. No pretense of cool here. The collective euphoria deflated long enough for Petty to deliver the Delmore Brothers' mournful "Gonna Lay Down My Old Guitar" and to dedicate the somber "Walls" to the late director Stanley Kubrick. "Sometimes when you're writing a song, it's like an orgasm," Petty said at one point, pondering the creative process. "You don't really know what you're doing." And sometimes you do. During a marathon rendition of Them's "Gloria," Petty digressed from the song lyrics to spin his own wayward, spoken-word yarn about pursuing a less-than-interested love interest. "Get over it, Tom!" a voice in the crowd finally roared. And he did, laughing mischievously as he wrapped up the story (in which he finally gets the girl — sort of), then wound the song back around to its climactic "G-L-O-R-I-A" chant. Rock stars don't usually take their cues from the peanut gallery, but it was just that kind of night.

The Odds of Recovery Trailer (2002)
09 June 2002 66 mins
After a twenty year period of multiple illnesses and injuries, the filmmaker turns the camera on herself as a way to analyze her chances for a happier, healthier life. In the process, she captures the frustration, tedium and petty annoyances of a revolving-door relationship with the medical establishment, while portraying the complicated web of emotions that accompany any medical problem. With humor and honesty, The Odds of Recovery uses the filmmaker's medical history as a means to address a perennial human problem: the desire to avoid conflict and deny the need for radical change.
Watch the official The Odds of Recovery 2002 trailer in HD below or find more The Odds of Recovery videos on Vidimovie.

One of the city's most picturesque spots, Lagoa (full name Lagoa Rodrigo de Freitas) is the stunningly beautiful lake that sits behind Ipanema. With a 7.5km walking / bike path circulating the Lagoon, it's the perfect place to go for a relaxing stroll anytime of day, but especially nice when the sun is going down. Christ the Redeemer will most likely accompany you no matter what part of the lagoon you're at.
Lagoa is located near the center of the map, sitting behind Ipanema and Copacabana.
Around the Lagoon you'll find various bars and restaurants to stop and enjoy the scenery. A budget option that lots of people enjoy doing is to have a picnic, pick a spot and watch the sunset go down without the high prices.
A nice restaurant with a menu of German inspiration
Great location with rustic wooden furniture outside looking over the lagoon, perfect for sunset. But be aware, it comes with a price, definitely one of the more expensive options for drinks and the snacks it offers. The menu is amazon-influenced. Below you can see the view a few steps outside the restaurant at sunset...
More top views and a good idea if you fancy a change, offering quality arabian food.
A street away from the Lagoon itself, Mamma Jammas serves top quality pizzas
Bikes are available to rent for around 20R an hour.
Renting a pedalinho (paddle boat) at the lagoon is among couples' favorite things to do in Rio de Janeiro. They cost around 20R for every 30 minutes on Saturdays, Sundays, and holidays. You'll find them located nearby Parque Cantagalo, the area in the lagoon nearby Copacabana
Going with the family? You can rent bikes for the family with a seat for 4 on the back and 2 young kids on the front, they'll even think they're doing the driving!
Be like a local! Really blend in with the Cariocas (nickname for locals) by going for a jog, walk, bike ride, cycle or skate around the Lagoon.
As well as the walking / cycling track, there are free to use basketball courts, football pitches, tennis courts and a skateboard ramp
It's a great spot to go for a picnic once the sun has cooled down a bit later in the day, even take a bottle of wine if that's your thing
Look out for Capybara's around the Lagoon! The large, hamster like animals live round it and often you'll see a family of them going about their day
It's not advisable to stay round the lagoon too late, despite an increased security presence of late, some area's can get quite dark and quiet after around 8pm. Just use common sense
Many years ago, the Lagoon used to have wild dolphins swimming in it
The Olympics will have various events held in the Lagoon. Namely Rowing and sailing
Lots of families hold birthday parties for their kids around the lagoon, there's various nice open grassy areas on the side nearest to Copacabana
Every Christmas time towards the end of November, Rio de Janeiro kicks off it's Christmas season with fireworks over what is officially the worlds largest Floating Christmas tree that sits on the Lagoon. It is hugely popular and thousands of locals and tourist come each night to see the 278 feet tall tree with over 3 million lights! It remains lit until around January 6th.
You can get a helipcopter from the side of the Lagoon and make a tour of the most famous sites in Rio

Dear Facebook,
You were never really my friend.
I learned about you while at a funeral...that should've been a sign.
All I wanted to do was pay my respects to my peer who lost his life.
I joined the page made in his memory & that's when the shit started.
Shawn, the sexy high schooler that served as my biggest Jr. High crush, started sending me virtual Long Island Ice Teas & margaritas .
That chick at my school with the really pretty hair accepted my request after denying my Myspace request only a few weeks earlier.
Then Alex, the older girl I'd always wanted to hang out with, fucking cyber-hugged me.
Everything was mad chill at the jump off, then you started to change on me.
You convinced me to start adding people I 'd never even talked to before, telling me it would be fun to just skim through the hundreds of thousands of pictures they had of themselves.
You acted like it was totally normal to stare at photos of people, that it wouldn't completely obliterate my teenage self-esteem (or lack there of).
...You know you were dead-wrong for that.
I've befriended a lot of professional liars, but you Facebook, you are by far the worst.
In less than 4 years, you've gone from the friend that helped me spy on parties full of drunk white-girls, keg stands & bong hits, to the make-shift, paranoid bastard-husband you want to smother in their sleep.
As soon as I check in with you you everyday, all you can ask me is "What's on your mind?".
Clearly you.
I'm fucking looking at you, am I not?
Then when I try to tell you what's on my mind, you demand to know who I'm with.
You know I'm by myself, fool.
I look at this chick's photo, you ask if I like it.
I check out that dude's video, you ask if I like it.
I update my own status & you ask if I like it.
Of course I like my status...you think I don't love myself or something?
Look, what I'm trying to get at is, you played me.
I feel like a fraud when I'm with you & all I want to do is come clean about all the dishonesty I've been portraying:
- No, I still don't chill with half of the very few friends I have on Facebook & that's because we were never friends in the first place. I most likely added you becuase I was either jealous of you at some point or, in the guys case, I probably had a crush on you.
-If I didn't still have jealousy issues or rabid crushes, my Facebook would be long gone.
- Sometimes I'll "like" random posts because I just want the person who posted it to talk to me. Sorry, I really don't care that you're eating a fucking sandwich...
- Yes, the majority of my profile pictures are taken by me, in my living room, with my web cam. That's because, my phone's camera sucks, my digital camera sucks, I don't own a laptop, & I don't have anyone else to take pictures for me.
- Yes, all of my pics are from the should shoulders up. That's because, again, I'm the one taking the pics, I'm not exactly a supermodel & my right boob is bigger than my left.
- It does hurt me when people I actually do know delete me as a friend. It's an unnecessary move that takes very little thought, but I'm not about to cry about it.
- I can totally tell when your status isn't written by you, but stolen off a site like Tumblr or We Heart It. Original.
- There are people on Facebook I'd love to be friends with, but I know my request will be denied, so I don't even try.
- In rare cases, Facebook has enabled me to have some great conversations with people I'd probably be to shy to talk to in person. But, more often then not, Facebook usually makes me hate my life & that's why I contemplate deactivation every single day.
- I don't hate anyone on Facebook, in fact, I truly love quite of few of my friends.
- There are questions you're asked in the "info" section that I just didn't answer. There is a reason for that.
- I'm tired of keeping my Facebook for people who never really cared in the first place.
- None of these are complaints, I'm only speaking from the heart.
- If this post makes me lose friends on Facebook, so be it. Now you finally know...
So, Facebook.
There we have it.
I'm not breaking off this 4 year realtionship, but...we need space.
I'm over the drama that someone's status or overly photoshopped profile pic can create in my life.
All I want to do is live everyday & not have to worry about telling you what's going on. (Forget posting pics of what's going on.)
You've been good to me, you've been awful to me.
I'm not going to stress over you anymore, so you count me out of this circus.
I'll be just fine without you.

The owner of a tugboat that collided with a ship last month dumping nearly 170,000 gallons of oil into the Houston Ship Channel claims in court filings the ship was speeding and being operated in a reckless manner.
In court documents filed earlier this month, Houston-based Kirby Inland Marine alleges the March 22 collision was caused by gross negligence on the part of Sea Galaxy Marine, the ship's owner.
In its own court filings, Sea Galaxy says the collision was not its fault. An attorney for Sea Galaxy declined to comment because of the ongoing investigation.
The U.S. Coast Guard, which is still investigating the accident's cause, did not immediately return a phone call for comment. A spokesman for Kirby Inland also did not return a call.

Four Must Have Fantasy Football RBs For Week 1 at DraftKings
Earlier this week I broke down some of the top quarterback options for Week One on DraftKings so it's time to pivot over to the running backs. Smash mouth running backs with heavy workloads aren't nearly as prevalent in the present day NFL, which is why I like the DraftKings scoring system so much. It favors pass catching backs with the full point per reception bonus. With that in mind, here's who to look at for NFL Week One:
Jamaal Charles vs. TEN ($9000) – It seems obvious to target the most expensive running back but this one comes down to matchup more than anything. The Titans are expected to have one of the worst rush defenses in all of football and are coming off a season where they allowed the third most fantasy points per game to opposing rushers. They did very little to improve on that in the off-season, but what's even worse for Tennessee against Charles is their struggles against pass catching backs. Opposing RBs averaged 6.25 receptions per game vs. TEN a season ago for 56.25 yards per contest. Going back to the point from the intro about DK's scoring, Charles should be in a terrific spot here.
Shane Vereen vs. MIA ($6100) – We'll continue the theme of targeting backs with big upside in the passing game by going with an RB who is really only used in the Patriots passing game. Vereen lead all running backs in targets per game last season and is used consistently in the red zone, especially with Rob Gronkowski ailing. Vereen saw double digit targets in four of his eight games played last season and had less than five targets on only one occasion. He also looked terrific in the Patriots most meaningful preseason game vs. CAR, hauling in a 40 yard touchdown reception with the first team offense.
Joique Bell vs. NYG ($5500) – Full discretion, I also really like Reggie Bush against the Giants and could have gone either way with this pick. I lean towards Bell because of the price tag, as he's a great value at $5500. Bell is coming off a terrific season where he had 650 rushing yards to go along with 550 receiving yards. He's a tremendous pass-catcher in an offense where new OC Joe Lombardi has already stated Bell will see more snaps each game to keep Bush fresh. The Giants defense is another one who struggled with RBs in the passing game last year as well. The G-men allowed an average of 6.19 receptions per game to opposing RBs for over 50 receiving yards.
Super Value: Carlos Hyde vs. DAL ($3900) – If you want to take a risk in a big tournament, I think Hyde could see a decent number of touches in this game. The 49ers know that Frank Gore can't continue to carry the heavy workload he once did at the age of 31 and that means they need to spell him more often with Hyde. Hyde performed well in the preseason and the Cowboys have a defense that can give up big plays in a hurry. He's dirt cheap and might have that big play upside that you're looking for in a large field tournament during Week One on DraftKings.
That does it for the running back picks for NFL Week One on DraftKings. I'll be bringing you some receivers and tight ends to target later in the week and as always, remember to head over to DraftKings and start filling out your rosters ASAP to get into their $5 Million Guaranteed NFL Kickoff Bash!

Donna, I believe that you are not allowed to make a lot of noise like that until 8 AM. That is the law around here. We have a lot of lawn service people and they are not allowed to start until 8 AM. You just might check into that and perhaps the police can give them a friendly reminder of the law.
The hubby won't let me say anything to them. (he can sleep through anything). He is the only person on the block that these obnoxious people will speak to. The man built most of the houses in our neighborhood including ours and the hubby likes to have access to free consulting whenever anything goes wrong...plumbing etc. They have a judge on one side of them and a cop on the other...you would think the cop would say something to them. Hubby is kinder than I am. They are in their late 70's with nothing else to do and just says they like to keep busy so just leave them alone. BTW...they have black topped their driveway THREE times this summer, with the steam rollers and other equipment blasting away early in the morning.
I can hardly wait for winter...he literally snow blows his driveway about three or four times a day. At least my windows are closed.
Just a funny note...there is a huge tall hedge that separates their house from the judges. It is right on the property line. OCD man trims his half and the judge lets his side grow about two feet taller and never trims it...it's all scraggly. OCD man and his wife cannot stand it and sometimes just sit and chairs and stare at it thinking he will get the hint!
Oh...I am not making fun of OCD. I am the one who counts the clothes when they come out of the dryer!
I shall survive!
I have new neighbors that just moved in about three days ago. I gave them the benifit of the dought. OMG! The first day they moved in they had the TV roaring like a jet airplane between 2pm-11pm. I knocked on their door lightly as to not disturb my other neighbors and these 2 black guys couldn't even hear me. I'm thinking....What should I do now? They just moved in....hmmmm Da^! it...... So I went back at 11pm and knocked louder on the door. They finally turned the TV down to answer the door. We have a 10pm quiet time around here. OMG I can not wait to move to a quieter place. I refuse to move into a large appartment complex again and I also refuse to have noisey loud neighbors again.
I got rid of the first noisey neighbors when I moved in here and I will get rid of another set of noisey neighbors. The manager and leasing agents are not friendly at all and the manager is a B----- word. Can you tell I don't like them?......
Just venting
Now there's an idea, Littleneck. These people go to bed at 8:00 so maybe I'll wait until they are sound asleep and put a big ole boom box at the end of my driveway and play Muskrat Love at full volume for about an hour. Or since it's still light out at that hour, get out the chain saw and trim the limbs off the fir trees that line our property. Yup!
I should be kinder to these folk but they reported three people on our block for using black trash bags. We are supposed to use clear ones but sometimes the garbage men pick up the black ones anyway...so why should THEY care???
Oh well...
PS, this tread kinda reminds me of a movie I just saw called "Lakeview Terrace", which is a very good movie, atleast I thought so lol. (except for the killings of course, atleast I hope none of you are shooting any shooting any of your neighbors lol)

Fans only do so much. They really don't do anything for the low loud jet airplane sounds from my neighbors TV. I really don't know how they cope with not really being able to hear well. My son has tried the earplugs. NOT!
I have two fans in my room that I turn on at night. I have to get another fan for my son but that probably won't happen until next year when they come around again. I told him he could have the one in the livingroom but he won't take it for some reason.

Zumba instructor gets 10 months for prostitution
ALFRED, Maine (AP) – A Zumba fitness instructor at the center of a prostitution scandal featuring sex videos, adultery and more than 100 clients told a judge who sentenced her Friday to 10 months in jail that she's happy to have escaped her former life.
Speaking through tears, Alexis Wright said she felt relief when police raided her business on Feb. 12, 2012, because she wanted out.
"In my eyes I'm free. I'm free from this," she told the judge. "I have an incredible amount of strength that I knew was in me somewhere. Now that I have the strength I want to encourage others to come forward. I want them to know that there's at least one person out there who'll believe their story, no matter how crazy it seems."
The former single mother was accused of conspiring with insurance business owner Mark Strong to run a prostitution business in which she videotaped clients without their knowledge and kept detailed records over an 18-month period indicating she made $150,000 tax-free. She also collected more than $40,000 in public assistance.
In an odd twist to the already strange case, the defense said in a court document that Wright became part of Strong's private investigation firm and was manipulated into believing she was an "operative" working for the state with the task of investigating "all manner of sexual deviants."
Her attorney, Sarah Churchill, said Friday that Wright, coached by Strong, thought she was investigating sex, even as she was getting paid large sums of money by clients.
Churchill said self-deception is a coping mechanism for women involved in prostitution.
"Because of her trauma history, it makes her more easily manipulated," she said. "As this all unravels and charges are brought, you look back on it, like everybody does, you say to yourself, 'What was I thinking? How did I fall into this?' You just don't see it while you're in the middle of it."
Deputy District Attorney Justina McGettigan, however, said investigators continue to believe Wright was "a willing participant" in the prostitution business.
"The state believes she and Mark Strong were equal partners and that she played an active role in the operation," she told reporters.
The scandal in the seaside town of Kennebunk, known for its sea captain's mansions, beaches and New England charm, became a sensation following reports that Wright had at least 150 clients, some of them prominent. So far, those who have been charged include a former mayor, a high school hockey coach, a minister, a lawyer and a firefighter.
So far, 68 accused clients have been charged and more than half have been convicted, McGettigan said. Another 40 remain under investigation, she said.
Churchill told the judge that the defendant had a difficult childhood; she witnessed domestic violence and suffered sexual abuse before becoming an exotic dancer and meeting Strong. She said Strong used her troubled background to manipulate her.
The 30-year-old Wright was sentenced under a plea agreement to 20 counts including prostitution, conspiracy, tax evasion and theft by deception. Afterward, she was led from court to begin serving her sentence at a county jail.
Wright was originally charged with 106 counts. All the counts in the plea agreement were misdemeanors, including three counts relating to welfare and tax fraud. Under the agreement, prosecutors will seek restitution of $57,280.54.
Strong, 57, of Thomaston, was convicted of 13 counts related to promotion of prostitution and was sentenced to 20 days in jail. The married father of two acknowledged having an affair with Wright.
On Friday, Wright looked back at her husband, whom she married last year, before addressing the judge, telling her it was "incredibly nauseating" to hear Strong speak in the media of their relationship as one of love and friendship.
Wright said she was relieved that the relationship ended. "These actions were not taken because I wanted to. I did not feel I was in a position to choose," she said.
She said she intends to make good on her vow to help others.
"When I'm out, I'm going to pursue helping people fight through situations that are similar to mine," she said. "I'm optimistic that something good will come out of this."
Wright's husband, Jayson Trowbridge, left without speaking to reporters. But he gave a statement to the judge describing his wife as a good mother who was anguished over her actions, and explaining that he was there for her.
"My vow of marriage was a choice to stand up for her when she couldn't find the strength to stand up for herself," he wrote.
After agreeing to the plea bargain, Justice Nancy Mills had words of encouragement for Wright.
"Based on what you have to say and what I know about you from your attorney, I know that you will succeed when you're released and that you will prevail. I wish you success," Mills said.

can't seem to sleep on my side!
I can't seem to get comfortable on my side (either side) and stay there when I sleep. I've only been a back sleeper for a year or two, but, now I can't seem to make anything else work! I know I'm supposed to avoid sleeping on my back, but, my shoulders are even starting to hurt. Any suggestions?
Re: can't seem to sleep on my side!
My only suggestion is one of those long pillows that adjust (kind of) to your body, don't know what they are called. I always been a tummy sleeper so sleeping on my side was very hard, I just slept between two pillows, honestly it did not allow me to sleep better, it was a bit annoying after a while, so I guess after all I was no help.
Re: can't seem to sleep on my side!
I'm not of much help either. I've been trying a pillow between my knees but I always end up on my back or kind of on my stomach.
Re: can't seem to sleep on my side!
I can sleep on my right side but now my left. I know that is the one they suggest. But when I do, I get a pulling feeling in my uterus that really hurts. Baby stays on right side anyway. But I am most comfy on my back.
Re: can't seem to sleep on my side!
I used a body pillow to support my tummy and a pillow between my knees - which seemed to help with hip pain.
Sorry you are uncomfortable right now. Hugs!!

Ghost Explained (Part 1)
The Quest to understand life after death
From Spiritualism to quantum physics, the quest persists to find out exactly what haunts us, and how, and why…
Inquiring Minds
The idea that the energy of life just vanishes into nothingness in death has never been comfortable for us humans. Such potent energy must go somewhere: to Paradise, perhaps, or the Underworld, or some purgatorial holding pattern, or the interstices between the stars. It must revive secretly on some other side of existence. And there, many have long supposed, the spirits traverse eternity, reaping whatever good or ill they sowed in life.
Such an explanation accounts nicely for what happens to an individual's life force. But not all energy that has gone on to its post-mortem dimension seems content to stay there. Unfinished business, hatred left unquenched, revenge uncompleted, one's murderer gone free, lost or unrequited love, the need to warn or scare or save one's survivors; there are so many compelling reasons not to rest that one would expect the ether to teem with souls still not quite decoupled from life. And so they seem to over about us, occasionally visible, often subtly perceptible, just out of earshot, but nevertheless there, palpable enough to prompt never-quite-answered about who they are and what they want.
The questions about the fate of the life force have been asked for thousands of years. In the 18th and 19th centuries, however, it appeared at times that science was on the verge of providing some definitive answers. Energy of all sorts was on the verge of providing some definitive answers. Energy of all sorts was much on people's minds then: electrical energy, magnetic energy, how to two transferred back and forth, how energy was transformed into light and heat. Energy never vanished, it seemed, it merely changed forms. So it might be with the energy of life, some scientists speculated: Perhaps life was another manifestation of energy, as indestructible as electricity or sunlight, and as quick to take another form.
It made sense, and it carried the advantage that the whole business of an afterlife might be viewed objectively, not through the distorting lenses of superstition or metaphysics. And if one could quantify the existence of human energy after the body's death – ghosts and spirits, as it were, why couldn't one get in touch with them? Why couldn't science open a line to the Other side?
Science and the Supernatural
The idea smacked somewhat of hubris; the science of the time (and of today, for that matter) was as yet ill-equipped to unveil nature's most closely held secret: the mystery of death and what lies beyond it. Even so, there were pioneers willing to try. And if they fell short, some were equally willing to cloak their efforts in enough pseudoscientific mumbo jumbo to at least confuse the issue.
One of these was Franz Anton Mesmer, the 18th century Austrian physician whose theory of "animal magnetism" – a natural magnetic energy he believed to exist in all living creatures, suggested the possibility of sensing objects and events beyond ones' waking ken. Mesmer was wrong about nearly everything except the technique of hypnotizing or "mesmerizing," subjects. Still, his incorporation of magnetism into his spiel imparted a certain learned aura to his work and to the otherworldly pranks of a legion of Mesmerists who sprung up on both sides of the Atlantic.
Emanuel Swedenborg, a renowned Swedish scientist who was a contemporary of Mesmer, offered a philosophical counterpoint to the Austrian's mind-bending hocus-pocus. The hidden worlds to which Mesmer clamied to send his hypnotized subjects were familiar ground to Swedenborg, who reported the frequent company of Jesus, a host of spirits, and even God. He framed the afterlife into six spheres of Spiritualism, which spirits traversed from the lowest (life on Earth) to the highest (unknowable to us). About equal parts brilliant and deranged, Swedenborg like Mesmer, helped fertilize the occult ground of what would become, in the 19th century, the Spiritualist movement.
Science and the Soul
By the end of 19 centaury, science and mediumship have gone their separate ways, the latter dissolving into the often suspect claptrap of channeling and psychic hot lines, the former searching for spirits in wholly new directions.
These days, the serious scientists speculating on the soul's possible survival tend to be, of all things, physicists. Their mystical turn of mind is doubtless linked to quantum mechanics itself, the science describing the cosmos as a mysterious mesh of being and nonbeing in which tiny, invisible bits called quanta – the building blocks of the universe – behave in exotically erratic and unpredictable ways.
All creation is joined "in a state of unending flux of enfoldment and unfoldment," says the University of London's David Bohm, a leading authority on quantum mechanics and also a student of Eastern mysticism. Bohm asserts that human consciousness is part of a unity that includes the whole universe. If such oneness is indeed the case, it's logical to assume that somewhere in that universe, disembodied souls exist.
Another physicist influenced by Eastern thought is Brian Josephson, a Nobel laureate and professor at England's Cambridge University. "One is not the same as one's body," says Josephson, who defines the soul as a nonphysical "organizing center" of the self. He is convinced that this organizing center survives death.
Mind, Brain, Soul
Other scientists approach the soul by speculating on whether human consciousness is separable from human flesh: Is the mind merely what the brain does? Or is it more, and other – an entity that can exist independent of the brain and survive the brain's death? One renowned thinker who argues for the second proposition is Australian neurophysiologist Sir John Carew Eccles, another Nobel Prize winner. "I cannot believe," says Eccles, "that the wonderful gift of a conscious existence has no further future, no possibility of another existence under some unimaginable conditions."
Eccles has an ally in Sir Karl Popper, the eminent philosopher of science. Popper posits the existence of three worlds: a material one containing the brain and all other material objects, an abstract world in which the mind dwells, and a world that holds all the mind's achievements, all the fruits of civilization. These worlds interact constantly, but they are essentially separate; the mind, therefore, enjoys an existence independent of the brain.
No End in Sight
Inquiring minds, including some of the best minds around, do indeed want to know. But this side of the grave, will we ever really understand what death is and what the spirit is and whether it survives after the body dies? The best minds seem to think not.
Physicist Josephson contends that physical science will never, by itself, unravel all reality's secrets, although he concedes that mystical insight may open new path-ways for rational thought.
Neurophysiologist Eccles is even more modest about the prospects, although a good scientist that he is, he allows for all possibilities. "I don't want to claim that I have some extraordinary revelation telling me the answer" says Eccles. "I keep everything open. I keep so many doors open because I am, as it were, a lost soul trying to find my way in the unknown."

Shrewsbury Colleges Group celebrates and values the diversity brought to it by all members of the community and is committed to providing a supportive, creative and inspiring environment where everyone is treated fairly, regardless of age; disability; gender reassignment; marriage and civil partnership; pregnancy and maternity; race, religion or belief; gender and sexual orientation.
We are committed to creating a positive learning and working environment that is free from discrimination, harassment or victimisation and place equality, diversity and inclusion at the heart of everything we do:
- All college policies and procedures go through the Equality Impact Assessment procedure
- Annual staff and student surveys include Equality and Diversity questions and analysis
- The Group's Equality and Diversity Committee monitors our commitment with a diverse cross-college membership comprising of senior management, teaching and support staff, students and representatives from the Governors and Corporation
- We embed equality and diversity in the curriculum and tutorials
- Staff undertake regular CPD to improve their understanding and practise of issues related to Equality & Diversity
- The Group supports the embedding of Equality and Diversity through its E&D Lead Governor, who sits on the Group's E&D Committee and reports back both to the Quality Committee and the Board itself
In addition to fulfilling its legal obligations, the Group actively promotes awareness of an inclusive society through its students' work in a variety of initiatives, learning materials and events that include Black History Month, British Values, Anti-bullying Week, International Women's Day, Holocaust Memorial Day and Mental Health Awareness Week. Our annual diversity week has a variety of speakers and workshops from such organisations as Stonewall, Gender Matters, Refugee Action, The Ark, as well as the local Muslim community.
We also work with the local community, through FREsh, a registered society promoting equality, diversity and the elimination of unfair treatment and discrimination within and beyond Shropshire. Other involvements within the community include the Shrewsbury LGBT history festival in February and our links with primary schools who participate in the annual primary school day.

Students organise a variety of events and displays, like this one for International Women's Day, with a competition to identify famous women.
Overcoming Adversity Awards 2015
Every year the College holds VQ Day which is a celebration of vocational achievement and the benefits of practical, technical and vocational learning. As part of this event the College Equality & Diversity Committee, in partnership with the Corporation, hosted the Annual Overcoming Adversity Awards.
The Awards provide an opportunity to recognise and celebrate those students who have overcome obstacles and risen to achieve at the College. This year, Certificates of Achievement were awarded to 8 students, with 2 receiving Commended Awards. This annual event is an important part of the College's programme to celebrate and recognise diversity.
