Leo: 2012 International League Managers
Over the next few weeks, as the 2012 season draws near, I'll be taking a look at the International League. I'll post on everything from the top prospects in the league to the best places to each in each city. Consider it your "everything you really need to know" guide to the 2012 IL season.
The International League is heading into uncharted water this season with six new managers. It's the largest turnover in recent years for the 128 year-old league.
All four playoff managers return for the 2012 season as skippers in Columbus, Lehigh Valley, Durham, and Pawtucket try to return to the post-season. Managers that have a Governors' Cup Championship on their resume return in Gwinnett and Scranton Wilkes-Barre and things remain unchanged with Toledo and Indianapolis as well.
Of the six new managers , two have previously led other IL clubs.
Here they are:
Buffalo – Wally Backman
Backman takes over for Tim Teufel, who was promoted to third base coach with the Mets. The 52 year-old played on the 1986 Mets World Series Championship team. He's entering his tenth season as a manager, his third with the Mets organization. Last year, Backman's Double-A Binghamton club finished 65-76 in the Eastern League.
Charlotte – Joel Skinner
Skinner replaces Joe McEwing, who was named the third base coach with the White Sox. He last managed in 2010 with Cleveland's Double-A club in Akron. The 51 year-old was on the Oakland A's staff last season. Skinner has big league managerial experience; he took over for Charlie Manuel as the Indians' interim manager in 200. He was a catcher in the Cleveland organization when Charlotte was the Triple-A affiliate.
Columbus – Mike Sarbaugh
The two-time defending Triple-A National Champions have Mike Sarbaugh back as manager. He was the 2011 Manager of the Year and the IL's Triple-A All Star Game skipper. Sarbaugh, 44, enters his 23rd consecutive season in the Indians organization as a player, coach, and manager. He led Double-A Akron for two seasons prior to joining Columbus. Sarbaugh has won five championships in eight seasons.
Durham – Charlie Montoyo
Montoyo returns for his sixth season in Durham, coming off a fifth straight IL South Division title. The 47 year-old led the Bulls to the Governors' Cup and Triple-A Championship in 2009. He was named the 2009 Baseball America Minor League Manager of the Year. This will be his 16th season as a manager, all within the Tampa Bay farm system. Montoyo led the Double-A Montgomery club to the Southern League title in 2006.
Gwinnett – Dave Brundage
The Braves manager returns for his sixth season, holding a 231-199 record with Gwinnett and was the manager for two seasons in Richmond for the team relocated. The 47 year-old Brundage guided the Richmond Braves to the Governors' Cup in 2007, his first year in the league, and wild card berth in 2009. His coaching career began as a player-coach for the Triple-A Calgary Cannons in 1993.
Indianapolis – Dean Treanor
Treanor is back for his second season as the Indianapolis manager after serving as the club's pitching coach in 2010. The Indians finished 76-68 after starting 9-21. The 64 year-old enters his 24th season in baseball, his eighth as a Triple-A manager. He joined the Pirates in 2009 as the manager of Double-A Altoona.
Lehigh Valley – Ryne Sandberg
The Hall of Famer returns for his second season with the IronPigs after leading Lehigh Valley to a Wild Card berth and the Governors' Cup finals. Before joining the Phillies organization, Sandberg spent four years as a manager in the Cubs farm system. He managed Triple-A Iowa in 2010. Sandberg, 52, was inducted into Cooperstown in 2005 for his 16 year playing career that included ten National League All Star selections and seven Silver Slugger awards.
Louisville – David Bell
The Bats welcome a new manager for 2012 as David Bell takes over for Rick Sweet. Sweet transitions into a roving catching instructor role and Bell starts his Triple-A managerial career. He was the Reds Double-A Carolina skipper for three seasons. Bell, 39, played parts of seven seasons in the majors. He is the youngest manager in the International League.
Norfolk – Ron Johnson
Johnson is no stranger to the International League, despite being the new Tides skippers. Johnson managed Pawtucket from 2005 to 2009. He takes over for Gary Allenson, who is now the Class-A Aberdeen manager. Johnson, 55, was Boston's first base coach for the last two seasons. This will be his 19th season as a minor league manager.
Pawtucket – Arnie Beyeler
Beyeler returns for his second season with the Paw Sox, after guiding the club to the first IL North Division title since 2003. He has managed eleven seasons in the minors, eight in the Red Sox system. From 2007 to 2010, Beyeler was the Red Sox Double-A Portland manager. He served as the Clippers pitching coach during a three year stint in the Yankees organization from 1997 to 1999.
Rochester – Gene Glynn
Glynn takes over the reins in Rochester after serving as a scout for the Tampa Bay Rays for the last five seasons. Tom Nieto, Rochester's manager last year, is now the Yankees Gulf Coast League manager. Glynn has managed five seasons at the Class-A level and has 13 seasons of major league coaching experience with the Rockies, Expos, Cubs, and Giants.
Scranton Wilkes-Barre – Dave Miley
Miley returns in hopes of guiding the Yankees back to the playoffs after their streak of four straight North Division crowns ended last year. The 49 year-old led SWB to the Governors' Cup Championship in 2008 and earned IL Manager of the Year honors in 2007. Prior to joining the Yankees, he spent 26 years in the Cincinnati Reds organization, including four seasons with Louisville (2000-2003). He managed in Indianapolis from 1996 to 1999 when the Indians served as the Reds top affiliate. He has won 1,092 games in Triple-A. In July 2003, Miley was named the Cincinnati Reds manager, a role he held until June of 2005, posting a 125-164 mark.
Syracuse – Tony Beasley
Beasley takes over in Syracuse for Randy Knorr, who is now the bench coach for the Nationals. He managed Washington's Double-A Harrisburg affiliate to a record of 80-62 with a post-season appearance. He was the Nationals third base coach in 2006 and joined the Pirates major league staff for three seasons before returning the Nationals in 2011. His teams have made the playoff every year in six seasons as a minor league manager, five with the Pirates. He has been named Baseball America's Low Class-A Manager of the Year twice and Double-A Manager of the Year once.
Toledo – Phil Nevin
Nevin returns for his second season with the Mud Hens, after a 67-77 finish last year. The 41 year-old joined the Tigers organization in 2012, managing the Double-A Erie club. His only previous managing experience came in 2009 in the independent Golden baseball League. Nevin played twelve seasons in the majors with the Astor, Tigers, Padres, Angels, Rangers, Cubs, and Twins. He also spent two seasons as a broadcaster with the Padres and ESPN.

U.S. Perspectives on Consumer Protection
in the Global Electronic Marketplace
June 8-9, 1999
Send your questions for the panelists to email@example.com
The number of direct, international business-to-consumer transactions involving electronic commerce is expected to increase significantly in the future. Global networks have the potential to offer consumers substantial benefits, including convenience and access to a wide range of goods, services, and information at lower cost. But these benefits cannot be realized fully until consumers develop confidence in commercial activities conducted over global networks and businesses are assured of a stable and predictable commercial environment. Accordingly, the present challenge is to encourage the development of a global marketplace that offers safety, transparency, and legal certainty. The Federal Trade Commission, by seeking public comment and holding a public workshop, aims to facilitate an ongoing dialogue on how government, industry, and consumers can work together to meet this important challenge.

ATLANTA (AP) — When President Barack Obama addressed graduates at Morehouse College on Sunday, he also spoke to the broader community of historically Black colleges and universities — a proud corner of higher education that has struggled more than most during the last few years of economic distress.

by Joseph Gerth
The Courier-Journal
LOUISVILLE, Ky. (AP) — Raoul Cunningham was a gangly 17-year-old high school junior when Louisville police came for him at the lunch counter of the old Stewart's Department Store in February 1961. They handcuffed him, he says, and hauled him off to the old Children's Center juvenile facility on East Chestnut Street.
Over the next two years, that scenario would be repeated hundreds of times as Cunningham and other African-American high school students — mainly from Central and Male — waged a battle of sit-ins, squat-ins and stand-ins against restaurants, movie houses and other businesses that wouldn't serve them because of their race.

Officer who shot NY student faced harrowing choice

by Verena Dobnik
NEW YORK (AP) — The police officer who accidentally killed a Long Island college student along with an armed intruder faced perhaps the most harrowing decision in law enforcement: choosing the split-second moment when the risk is so high that you must pull the trigger.
That's the moment authorities say a Nassau County police officer experienced early Friday morning when a masked man holding 21-year-old Andrea Rebello in a headlock pointed a loaded handgun at him.
"The big question is, how do you know, when someone's pointing a gun at you, whether you should keep talking to them, or shoot?" said Michele Galietta, a professor of psychology at the John Jay College of Criminal Justice who helps train police officers. "That's what makes the job of an officer amazingly difficult."
She spoke Sunday as Hofstra University students honored Rebello, a popular public relations major, by wearing white ribbons at their graduation ceremony.
On Saturday evening, flags on the Hempstead campus were at half-staff and students held a silent outdoor vigil in front of a photo of the young woman. Surrounded by candles and flowers, they sang "Ave Maria."
Rebello's funeral is scheduled for Wednesday in Sleepy Hollow, in Westchester County, north of New York City.
Her life ended in the seconds that forced the veteran police officer to make a fatal decision, but the questions surrounding the student's death are just beginning, along with an internal investigation by the Nassau County Police Department.
The bare facts are simple.
This undated photo provided by the Nassau County Police Department shows Dalton Smith of Hempstead, N.Y. (AP Photo/Nassau County Police Department)
Rebello and the intruder, Dalton Smith, died early Friday when the officer fired eight shots, hitting him seven times, with one bullet striking Rebello once in the head, according to county homicide squad Lt. John Azzata.
With a gun pointed at her, Smith "kept saying, 'I'm going to kill her,' and then he pointed the gun at the police officer," according to Azzata.
The officer acted quickly, saying later that he believed his and Rebello's life were in danger, according to authorities.
No doubt, he was acting to try to save lives — his own and that of the young woman, Galietta said.
"What we're asking the cop to anticipate is, 'What is going on in the suspect's mind at the moment?'" she said. "We're always trying to de-escalate, to contain a situation, but the issue of safety comes in first, and that's the evaluation the officer has to make."
Eugene O'Donnell, a former New York City police officer and professor of law and police studies at John Jay College, said the crucial issue may be whether or not police had deemed it a hostage situation. If so, he said, there are protocols police follow to buy time, slow down, isolate and assess.
But O'Donnell said the officers may have had few options because of "an eyeball to eyeball confrontation between the officer and the offender."
"It may have been too fluid to deteriorate for the officers to do anything else," O'Donnell said. "It underscores that there's no two of these that are exactly alike."
Police tactical manuals are meant to assist officers in making the best decision possible, but in the end, "they're not 100 percent foolproof," Galietta said. "In a situation like that, you can follow procedure, and it doesn't mean it comes out perfectly."
The officer who fired the shots is an eight-year NYPD veteran and has been with Nassau County police for 12 years.
He is now out on sick leave, Azzata said.
Procedurally, the Nassau County district attorney's office would determine whether an officer's use of deadly force was justified. O'Donnell said. A spokesman for the district attorney's office did not respond to a request for comment Saturday night.
There are some rules governing the use of force for New York police officers. A subsection of Article 35 of New York Penal Law prohibits against recklessly endangering innocent people.

CHARLOTTE, N.C. (AP) — In the spring of 1963, a prominent civil rights leader led dozens of protesters on a four-mile march from a predominantly African-American college campus to the center of Charlotte's downtown.
At the rally, Dr. Reginald Hawkins warned city leaders that if something wasn't done to end segregation, future marches might not be so peaceful
Nearly two weeks later, civil rights and White business leaders quietly joined forces to desegregate the city's upscale restaurants and hotels. In a simple but powerful gesture, they ate lunch together in the restaurants, peacefully opening the door to integration.

Mourners gather to remember Malcolm X's grandson

by Terry Collins
OAKLAND, Calif. (AP) — Hundreds gathered Friday to remember the late grandson of slain civil rights leader Malcolm X as mourners said Malcolm Shabazz was well on his way to cementing his own legacy.
More than 200 people attended a traditional Islamic service in Oakland for the 28-year-old Shabazz, who authorities say was beaten to death last week over a $1,200 bar bill in Mexico City.
The service, which lasted more than two hours, featured plenty of prayer, songs, spoken word and tears. Many among the procession of speakers said while they initially connected with Shabazz because of his famous grandfather, they learned to appreciate a man they called "Young Malcolm" as a leader in his own right.
"If I could put into one word how I feel about Malcolm, it would be, 'inspiration,'" Hussein Mekki, 32, of Houston, Texas, told fellow mourners. "Hopefully that will continue, and he can inspire us for the rest of our lives."
Despite troubles early in life, from setting a blaze in his grandmother's apartment that resulted in the death of Malcolm X's widow, Betty Shabazz, to stints in juvenile hall and prison, mourners said Shabazz was seeking redemption with plans to write a memoir and another book denouncing youth violence.
Abdel Malik Ali, 55, a community activist from Oakland, said "Young Malcolm" appeared ready to fuse the history of Malcolm X along with his own experiences he described as "Generation Next."
Shabazz, who also was the father of a young girl, wanted to help build mosques and education centers across America, Ali said.
"He was looking for his own voice, his own place in this world," Ali said. "He had his struggles just like everybody else, but he eventually took on a huge responsibility in embracing his family's legacy that's harder than anybody could ever imagine."
While Shabazz was originally from New York, he settled in the Bay Area more than three years ago after taking a spiritual pilgrimage to Mecca at the advice of friends and local political activist Yuri Kochiyama, who knew his grandfather and wrote to Shabazz while he was incarcerated.
Close friend Hashim Ali Alauddeen, a doctoral student in Islamic Studies at the University of California, Berkeley, said Friday that Shabazz had plans to attend community college in the area and eventually seek a bachelor's degree in African-American studies at Berkeley.
"His heart was sincere. He strived to do what's right," Alauddeen said tearfully as he stood over Shabazz's casket while delivering his friend's eulogy. "He did his best to purify his soul. His intention and his sincerity were to serve God."
Shabazz died May 9 after he was beaten outside a bar near Plaza Garibaldi, a downtown square that is home to Mexico City's mariachis. Before his trip to Mexico, Shabazz had connected with a labor and construction group in California, and he traveled to Mexico to meet with one of its organizers who had been deported in April.
Labor activist Miguel Suarez, who was traveling with Shabazz, told The Associated Press last week that he and Shabazz were lured to the bar by a young woman who spoke to Shabazz in English.
Authorities in Mexico City say Suarez told investigators that he and Shabazz drank about a dozen beers and then the waiters demanded they pay a tab of 15,000 pesos, or about $1,200.
Mexico City's top prosecutor said two waiters arrested in the case had served Shabazz earlier. An autopsy found Shabazz died of blows to the head, face and torso.
Alauddeen said Shabazz's body will be buried in New York next to his grandparents.

In Sri Lanka, Reconciliation Far From Reality
Yesterday, in a stinging rebuke to the Sri Lankan government, voters in northern and eastern parts of the country defied intimidation to hand an alliance of parties closely linked to the defeated Liberation Tigers of Tamil Eelam (LTTE) insurgency majorities in an overwhelming number of local elections.
The results reveal that seething discontent remains among Tamils about the glacial pace of political reconciliation and deep divisions still haunt Sri Lanka two years after the government declared victory over the LTTE and ended one of the world's bloodiest and longest-running civil wars.
Some members of the Sri Lankan government, still running victory laps from 2009, were quick to declare the results a "great victory", with one minister touting that "people had used ballots instead of bullets".
Such a view, however, is alarmingly short-sighted and incredibly blinkered. Yes, Colombo has always been quick to point out (and few would disagree) that a country at peace is better than one riven by war.
But whether Tamil opinion is conveyed through the ballot box or through the barrel of the gun, it embodies the same message: the government, dominated by the Sinhalese majority, must acknowledge and address the legitimate grievances of the Tamil minority if it is to win the support of the people and achieve true reconciliation for Sri Lanka. That means not just more economic development, but greater political representation as well.
Yet there are few signs that the voice of the people is being heard by the government of President Mahinda Rajapaksa. According to a recent report by the International Crisis Group, despite the end of the war, minorities and political opponents continue to be either suppressed or excluded from decision-making, draconian emergency and anti-terrorism laws are still exercised, and creeping authoritarianism and heightened militarism appear to be subsuming the country. Aid to Tamil areas has been slow to arrive, development is often conducted without adequate consultation, and the pace of reintegration of former LTTE cadres has been much too slow.
Sadly, even as it is saddled with these myriad problems, the government appears to be devoting most of its political will to resisting true reconciliation than allowing it to occur. It has spent more energy fervently rejecting the establishment of an international inquiry into atrocities committed during the last stages of the war and quibbling over casualty figures when it is clear that tens of thousands of people died in the final weeks of the conflict (which included brutal army atrocities against civilians) and the nationally established Lessons Learnt and Reconciliation Commission (LLRC) is virtually powerless.
The Sri Lankan government may think that it can fool the international community through foot-dragging and finagle the Tamil population with false promises of reform in the near term. But at the end of the day, so long as the Tamils at home (and the diaspora abroad) continue to see a better future in a separate state than as part of a Sri Lanka that balances majority rule with minority rights, the wounds of war will not heal, and the deep distrust of government will persist.
Indeed, if the status quo continues unabated, it is not too difficult to imagine a scenario where Tamils conclude that justice may once again be better fulfilled through the barrel of a gun than at the ballot box. That, Mr. Rajapaksa and his triumphalist government may recall, was how the LTTE rose to power in the first place.

Atherosclerosis (ath-er-o-skler-O-sis) is a disease in which plaque (plak) builds up inside your arteries. Arteries are blood vessels that carry oxygen-rich blood to your heart and other parts of your body.
Plaque is made up of fat, cholesterol, calcium, and other substances found in the blood. Over time, plaque hardens and narrows your arteries. This limits the flow of oxygen-rich blood to your organs and other parts of your body.
Atherosclerosis can lead to serious problems, including heart attack, stroke, or even death.
Atherosclerosis can affect any artery in the body, including arteries in the heart, brain, arms, legs, pelvis, and kidneys. As a result, different diseases may develop based on which arteries are affected.
Coronary heart disease (CHD), also called coronary artery disease, is the #1 killer of both men and women in the United States. CHD occurs if plaque builds up in the coronary arteries. These arteries supply oxygen-rich blood to your heart.
Plaque narrows the coronary arteries and reduces blood flow to your heart muscle. Plaque buildup also makes it more likely that blood clots will form in your arteries. Blood clots can partially or completely block blood flow.
If blood flow to your heart muscle is reduced or blocked, you may have angina (chest pain or discomfort) or a heart attack.
Plaque also can form in the heart's smallest arteries. This disease is called coronary microvascular disease (MVD). In coronary MVD, plaque doesn't cause blockages in the arteries as it does in CHD.
Carotid (ka-ROT-id) artery disease occurs if plaque builds up in the arteries on each side of your neck (the carotid arteries). These arteries supply oxygen-rich blood to your brain. If blood flow to your brain is reduced or blocked, you may have a stroke.
Peripheral arterial disease (P.A.D.) occurs if plaque builds up in the major arteries that supply oxygen-rich blood to your legs, arms, and pelvis.
If blood flow to these parts of your body is reduced or blocked, you may have numbness, pain, and, sometimes, dangerous infections.
Chronic kidney disease can occur if plaque builds up in the renal arteries. These arteries supply oxygen-rich blood to your kidneys.
Over time, chronic kidney disease causes a slow loss of kidney function. The main function of the kidneys is to remove waste and extra water from the body.
The cause of atherosclerosis isn't known. However, certain traits, conditions, or habits may raise your risk for the disease. These conditions are known as risk factors.
You can control some risk factors, such as lack of physical activity, smoking, and an unhealthy diet. Others you can't control, such as age and a family history of heart disease.
Some people who have atherosclerosis have no signs or symptoms. They may not be diagnosed until after a heart attack or stroke.
The main treatment for atherosclerosis is lifestyle changes. You also may need medicines and medical procedures. These treatments, along with ongoing medical care, can help you live a healthier life.
Improved treatments have reduced the number of deaths from atherosclerosis-related diseases. These treatments also have improved the quality of life for people who have these diseases. However, atherosclerosis remains a common health problem.
You may be able to prevent or delay atherosclerosis and the diseases it can cause. Making lifestyle changes and getting ongoing care can help you avoid the problems of atherosclerosis and live a long, healthy life.
Clinical trials are research studies that explore whether a medical strategy, treatment, or device is safe and effective for humans. To find clinical trials that are currently underway for Atherosclerosis, visit www.clinicaltrials.gov.

Silent heart attacks are common and predict risk of death, MRI diagnosis shows
Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is more effective than electrocardiography (ECG) at identifying "silent" heart attacks, also known as unrecognized myocardial infarctions, according to a study performed by National Institutes of Health researchers and international colleagues.
The NHLBI updates Health Topics articles on a biennial cycle based on a thorough review of research findings and new literature. The articles also are updated as needed if important new research is published. The date on each Health Topics article reflects when the content was originally posted or last revised.

I'm a sport dietitian and cycling Olympian with the Canadian Sport Centre in Calgary, where I consult several national teams. I'm also the Performance Dietitian for the Canadian Olympic Committee and Team Canada at the upcoming 2012 London Summer Olympic Games. I will be their main support during the games when it comes to food selection and dietary needs. I love what I do – helping athletes to achieve their personal best success (and hopefully that means medals), is tremendously fulfilling!
Aside from being a sport dietitian, I've got another important job– I'm a mother to two highly active kids who are into competitive hockey and track and field, respectively – so I like to practice what I preach at home and in the office.

The jury has been seated in the trial of Josh Hastings, the former Little Rock Police Department officer charged with manslaughter for the August 2012 shooting death of a 15-year-old boy during a burglary call at a West Little Rock apartment complex.
Hastings shot Bobby Moore, Jr. as Moore and two other teens attempted to flee in a Honda Civic from the parking lot of the Shadow Lake Apartments complex at 13111 W. Markham, where Hastings had been dispatched to investigate a car burglary.
Hastings told investigators he fired because the car was speeding to him and he feared for his life, but further investigation produced discrepancies between Hastings' account and the evidence.
David Koon reports that nine women and three men make up the jury. Opening statements are scheduled for 9 a.m. Wednesday.
After the jury was dismissed, Judge Wendell Griffen reveresed his ruling from yesterday that attorneys wouldn't be allowed to cross examine the two juveniles who were in the car with Moore when he was killed regarding the fact that they were on probation at the time. Griffen said attorneys can cross examine the witnesses on their probation, but can only refer to their probation to challenge credibility and on issues of "bias or motive." He said attorneys can't use their probation to establish state of mind at the time of the shooting or establish character. Why the juveniles were on probation or prior offenses they may have been convicted of are off limites too, Griffen said.
Opening arguments were thought to be starting this afternoon, but the trial was slowed when chief deputy prosecutor John Johnson requested striking one of the jurors after he'd been selected during the alternate selection. Koon reports that victim Bobby Moore's father approached the Victim Witness Coordinator and told her that one of the jurors and his brother worked with him for the city of Little Rock. Moore's father claimed that the juror's brother had made racially charged statements. After recessing to deliberate on whether a juror could be struck after being chosen but before being sworn, Griffen allowed lawyers to question the juror to determine if he should be struck. The juror denied knowing Moore's relatives. He was dismissed.
Griffen said he didn't dismiss him for cause, explaining that just because relatives might say things that are "intolerant and abhorrent," doesn't mean a relative holds those views. Griffen said he allowed Johnson to exercise the last of his preemptory challenges. Defense attorney Bill James objected to the juror's dismissal.
Little Rock School Board member Dianne Curry, who is running for lieutenant governor, said that current Lieutenant Governor Mark Darr was "using the misery of the people, the residents of Mayflower, Arkansas, to garner feel good press." Darr made comments, reported by KUAR, that "as far as the clean-up goes it looks like that's been pretty well taken care of" and "they've kind of made this area even better than it was before."
"It's shameful, it's wrong, and it's what is wrong with politics," Curry said. Her press release is after the jump.
*Reading Curry's release, a point of clarification: the image of Mark Darr used in the post earlier today is a file photo. I didn't choose it, but I apologize if it caused confusion: none of the folks in the picture were with Darr when he made his Mayflower comments.
"Whoa! What was that?"
"What was what?"
"That! Do you hear it? It sounds like... An episode of SyFy's hit series "Ghost Hunters."
"You mean, here in Little Rock?"
"Exactly, I'm getting a reading that tells me the upcoming new episode on Wednesday, June 19 will include a ghost-hunting expedition to a home once owned by prominent early 20th century banker Edward Cornish."
"Yes, it airs at 8 p.m. and it's called "Ghost Friends Forever."
"Spooky. What else can you tell me?"
"Well, here goes...
On this episode of Ghost Hunters, TAPS is called to Little Rock, Arkansas where a family has inherited a bungalow next door to their home that they believe to be cursed. The bungalow has a tragic history of death, robberies and murder dating back to the 1800s. Paranormal activity has been terrifying their bungalow tenants for years and now activity seems to have spread over to the family's main house. Have the bungalow spirits traveled next door to the family's home? Are the family's deceased close friends, who willed the bungalow to them, to blame for this activity? TAPS is being brought in to get answers for this family in desperate need of answers.
"So where can I watch a very brief preview for this episode?"
"After the jump!"
Jazz legend and "Schoolhouse Rock!" composer Bob Dorough will perform at The Afterthought, 8 p.m., $5.
Hey there, how about this: you and a buddy get to go see Johnny Winter June 21 at Juanita's PLUS get to go to the meet-n-greet before the show and maybe get your picture made with the blues guitar legend. Sound cool? Well your old pals here at the Times are going to be giving away just such a prize.
All you need to do is send an email to robertbell at arktimes dot com with JOHNNY WINTER in the subject line. Send it in by noon on June 19. I'll draw names later that afternoon and announce the winner here on Rock Candy.

And it will be staring Arnold as Conan! http://movies.yahoo.com/news/arnold-conan-barbarian-reunited-universal-reboots-action-franchise-210752780.html Craig Morrison posted on the AoC forums and seemed pumped about it. I guess that is a good thing for AoC? one more potential chance to get some Conan awareness out there. I hope it is a better movie than Conan the Barbarian reboot. They really need a talented director and writers with an understanding of Howard's work and they really should use the music right out of the game for the music score, or hire Knut Haugen to write the score. http://www.ageofconan.com/news/interview_with_knut_haugen_winner_hmma_2011 "The Pen Is Mightier Than The Demo" |
"It's a little too early to tell what form that [a new movie tie-in] will take, but we will have some great opportunities with this as it all comes together," Morrison wrote on the AoC forums. "We are definitely looking forward to seeing what we will be able to do alongside it. With a 2014 release we will have plenty of time to be working on how to best take advantage of another movie." EQNext press http://EQ3Wire.com EQ2: Freeport server |
Remember that other Conan movie a while back. Yeah Morrison was extatic about that as well and people were saying this will bring the people back again. Look how that ended. AoC could have been a good game had Morrison not ruined it.

Originally posted by Connmacart Yes I do, and they totaly blew the casting on that movie. I know folks loved whats his face from game of thrones, but honestly he was a pathetic actor when he played in swg atlantis. Over at IMDB they had these ratings Ratings: 5.2/10 from 50,854 users Metascore: 36/100. And over at boxoff.com Opening Weekend: $10,021,215 | Total Domestic Gross: $21,295,021 | Worldwide Gross: $56,295,021 | Total Budget: $120,000,000, they lost their rear ends on that move. http://www.boxoffice.com/statistics/movies/conan-3d-2011. I remember getting roasted on the AOC forums for saying how bad that movie was gong to be, and boy howdy was I right. A new Conan movie is not going to help AOC, we proved that the last time. |
I rather they stick with the guy from the last movie than Arnie.
I thought the last one was pretty good, much better than destroyer. |
A new Arnie conan, sorry but I'm expecting a terminator 3 type mess.
You know he will have stuff in his contract where he gets to do his "comedy" one liners and stuff. |

Originally posted by Nadia I agree I am a Schwarzenegger fan as well. The other movie flopped the new one might be ok. AT least this one I will go see. I still don't see how it will help the game. Funcom made a mess of it over the years. |
I really hope this turns out better than their last fiasco with that dude who played the Khal of the Dothraki. All flash, no substance, but I suppose that could be applied to every Conan film.

I'm a huge arny fan, I grew up with the guy and believing that's what an action star should look like. However, he is but a shadow of himself. I don't know how the movie will pan out but i'm pretty sure we aren't going to be seeing him in a loin cloth splitting wigs with a giant sword.
It would be hard to top the original Conan movies. Beautiful cinematography, writing, and a passionate, inspiring soundtrack. All without CG. As mentioned earlier, Arnold isn't in his 20's any more ... If he would walk around in full clothing that might be OK I suppose. Want a nice understanding of life?

Personally I would like to see a modified Hour of the Dragon followed by a closely associated Conan of Aquilonia. Arnold is old now, but he is in great shape for a guy his age and the Conan stories go on until he is age 60+ so there is room for this. Firstly a montage (narrated like the other Arnold movies) where he becomes King of Aquilonia done as a retrospective – marries Zenobia, has his son, Conn (suggestions on who this should be please....) Conan starts the present story as King age 60. Aquilonia is attacked as per Hour of the Dragon but the sorcerer behind it is in fact Toth Amon in this version. Xenobia has to disguise herself as a slave girl to rescue him – paying homage to the original story. Conn is kidnapped, and the story goes straight into Cona of Aquilonia. Conn is rescued in Hyperborea, Toth Amon is finally cornered in the far south and Conan has his final battle with him. Would make a good 2.5 hour movie – or even better – two movies. |

Sega Japan has posted a teaser site which suggests a new PlayStation 3 and Vita game will be revealed on March 28. The animated page shows some sort of dust or sand falling from the sky and mounting up in a small pile in the grass. We have absolutely no clue what it might be, and as there's no equivalent western tease, it may not be something we can get our grubby paws on anyway. But go ahead and find some way to convince yourself it's Shenmue 3.
Thanks, IGN.

In response to queries, Boon said the surprise is not related to the latest Mortal Kombat game – and isn't Grid 2, a flyball suggestion.

Rumor: Rockstar teases possible location of next GTA game
Tucked away on page 13 of the manual for GTA IV: Episodes from Liberty City, owners will find a fake advertisement that possibly hints at the location of the next game in the series.
Who knows with the folks at Rockstar. They are your typical prom night tease.
At any rate, the advert says: Liberty City, It's Over! Next Stop …. something Seagull. The corner of the advert is intentionally ripped with what looks like countryside.
Nice one there.
It does say "opens March everywhere" as well, so who knows what that mean – if anything – or if it even pertains to the same thing. Bah. We're confused now, so we'll stop.
More through GTA4.net.

It might be a good idea to start planning logistics for the 2012 conference in Las Vegas.
If anyone is planning on driving to the conference, we can see who might be willing to carpool.
If someone will have transportation at the conference (renting a car), who might be willing to help ferry folks from the airport to their hotels?
Is anyone interested room sharing arrangements?
It might be helpful to list things like where you're coming from, whether you're driving, flying or coming by bus/train. What your expected arrival date / time / location will be. Whether you'll be renting a car. Where you'll be staying, if you've got extra space for a room sharing, etc.

Samaritan Inn looks to expand after rezoning OK'd: Homeless shelter hopes to add 60-unit family facility
File photo - The existing Samaritan Inn facility has rooms like this for families, but is forced to turn away thousands of potential residents every year. With this week's approval of a rezoned 15-acre plat nearby, the shelter could add a 60-unit building within 18-24 months.
By Chris Beattie,
Published: Friday, February 22, 2013 12:37 PM CST
The Samaritan Inn and its residents are on the way to having room to breathe a little easier – literally.
The McKinney City Council on Tuesday night approved the rezoning of a 15-acre plot of land near the homeless shelter that will allow it to add a new facility. The expansion, which Samaritan Inn executive director Lynne Sipiora says could open in 18 to 24 months, will provide temporary housing for 60 families.
"We have long needed a family shelter with more beds," Sipiora said at Tuesday's council meeting, attended by dozens in support of the expansion. "The need is increasing every year."
The shelter helps down-on-their-luck families and individuals get back on their feet through housing, meals, clothing, financial advice and counseling. The shelter doesn't allow residents, who undergo background checks, to use drugs or alcohol.
Such residents come from all over Collin County, yet, for 28 years McKinney has essentially been the county's only city to really accommodate the shelter. Its last expansion attempt came in 2010, when the Inn tried to build an 80-unit facility in eastern Plano, before rescinding the request after Plano City Council members expressed concern for how it would affect the surrounding area, the Dallas Morning News reported this week.
"Most people don't want a homeless shelter in their neighborhood," Sipiora said. "It's that 'not in my backyard' syndrome."
A similar objection arose in January soon after Inn officials approached McKinney about rezoning two lots a few hundred yards south of the shelter. The lots, zoned for light industrial use, needed to be planned development use for a possible expansion.
Several property owners of the nearby Powerhouse Business Center initially protested the rezoning request, worried the addition would devalue their properties. Their petition led city and Inn officials to redraft the ordinance request, requiring that the new facility provide six-month lodging (not "emergency" or overnight stays) for individuals without a violent criminal record and who've been drug- and alcohol-free for at least 30 days.
"Our main concern, when it boiled down to it, is what happens if something happens to The Samaritan Inn and it goes away," said Bill Harlan, managing partner for the center, located directly south of the proposed zoning. "If it didn't have restrictions on it, then it could become a chronic homeless shelter."
Harlan, at Tuesday's meeting, said that because of the redrafted ordinance, the petitioners now "are in 100 percent support of The Samaritan Inn."
After several other citizens, including Inn residents and volunteers, also voiced their support for the rezoning, the City Council unanimously approved it.
Sipiora said the new facility will likely cost close to $5 million and thus will require an impending "capital campaign" that Inn officials haven't yet worked out completely. Once built, the facility will help put a dent in the 3,754 people the Inn had to turn away last year – half of whom were children under age 10, and many who were "forced to live in their cars, sleep outside or join very crowded conditions with other families," Sipiora said.
The Collin County Homeless Coalition's most recent Point-in-Time Homeless Count reported there were 531 homeless individuals in Collin County in 2012, a 44 percent increase from the previous year. More than half the children identified were elementary age or younger, with the McKinney, Plano, Frisco and Allen school districts together accounting for more than 1,200 homeless or displaced students.
Future expansion, which the zoning now allows, could even better accommodate younger residents.
"Daycare is a huge issue for these families trying to get jobs and get back on their feet," Sipiora said. "We would love to operate our own daycare for our own children."
On the nearer horizon, children and their parents will at least have a temporary home at the new facility, which is to be designated for families and would allow the existing facility to house about 160 single adult residents. The shelter currently houses about 150 residents at one time.
Three or four new caseworkers would be employed to accommodate the increase in residents, she said, as each caseworker is assigned about 20 residents. The numbers – and corresponding necessities – continue to grow.
"We'll never meet the need," she said, "but this will be a significant improvement."
As long as the shelter gets the support evidenced this week, particularly that of McKinney officials, the shelter could one day consolidate all facilities at one location.
"McKinney's unique by nature, but it's also unique by heart," said Rick Wells, Samaritan Inn board president. "We're on the verge of creating one of the greatest homeless shelters in the United States."
