The Philadelphia Phillies and Arizona Diamondbacks conclude its three-game series Sunday (1:35 p.m. ET on PHL 17) at Citizens Bank Park. Veteran lefty Cliff Lee (2-6) will try and help the Phils' take the finale and the series, which is knotted at a game apiece, as he opposes Arizona's Trevor Cahill (9-9).
Despite dealing a bit of an off-the-field dilemma, Lee, who as placed on waivers earlier this week, will try and earn just his second win of the season. In his last outing, Lee put together a seven-inning, no-run performance against the Washington Nationals.
Meanwhile, Cahill allowed just one run over six innings against the Los Angeles Dodgers.

Plot Summary:
Meryl Streep leads an all-star cast in the feature-film adaptation of the beloved musical that has been seen by more than 30 million people in 160 cities and 8 languages around the world. Bringing the timeless lyrics and melodies of iconic super group ABBA to movie audiences, Summer 2008 is the season for "Mamma Mia!"
The three women who created the worldwide smash stage hit--global producer Judy Craymer, writer Catherine Johnson and director Phyllida Lloyd--repeat their roles in bringing this joyful, musical story to the big screen. The Mamma Mia! film is produced by Judy Craymer and Gary Goetzman.
Pierce Brosnan, Colin Firth, Stellan Skarsg�rd, Christine Baranski, Julie Walters, Amanda Seyfried and Dominic Cooper join Streep in this celebration of a mother, a daughter and three possible dads.
An independent, single mother who owns a small hotel on an idyllic Greek island, Donna (Streep) is about to let go of Sophie (Amanda Seyfried), the spirited daughter she's raised alone. For Sophie's wedding, Donna has invited her two lifelong best girlfriends--practical and no-nonsense Rosie (Julie Walters) and wealthy, multi-divorcee Tanya (Christine Baranski)--from her one-time backing band, Donna and the Dynamos. But Sophie has secretly invited three guests of her own.
On a quest to find the identity of her father to walk her down the aisle, she brings back three men from Donna's past to the Mediterranean paradise they visited 20 years earlier. Over 24 chaotic, magical hours, new love will bloom and old romances will be rekindled on this lush island full of possibilities.
Inspired by the storytelling magic of ABBA's songs from "Dancing Queen" and "S.O.S." to "Money, Money, Money" and "Take a Chance on Me," Mamma Mia! is a celebration of mothers and daughters, old friends and new family found.

PHOENIX - A group that advocates for pro-gun, state legislation said Wednesday guns should be allowed in Arizona public schools to provide protection against shootings such as the one in Connecticut.
"It's long past time to, at the very least, allow our school faculty and staff the option to be trained and armed," the Arizona Citizens Defense League said in a statement. "Only then will they be capable of dealing with a situation like this."
Amid public debate over what to do in response to the shooting at Sandy Hook Elementary, the league is "now looking at things that can be done to heighten security in schools," spokesman Charles Heller said during an earlier interview. "We hadn't been before."
Arizona law now generally bans taking guns on school grounds.
The statement by the league decried the violence in Connecticut and stopped short of announcing a 2013 legislative proposal to allow guns on campuses.
Heller said his group is considering options, but he couldn't discuss specifics. The session starts in mid-January, and no proposed bills filed as yet deal with gun issues.
Gun control proposals went nowhere in the Republican-led Arizona Legislature after the January 2011 shooting that wounded then-Congresswoman Gabrielle Giffords in Tucson.
In the next two legislative sessions, state lawmakers twice approved bills to allow guns in many public buildings without airport-style security and once to allow them on higher-education campuses.
However, Republican Gov. Jan Brewer vetoed all three versions of those two bills that reached her desk. She said in May her veto of the latest such bill reflected public unease.
A Brewer spokesman did not immediately respond to a request for comment on the league's statement.
Arizona has permissive gun laws and a Wild West heritage. Guns can be carried openly, sometimes jolting newcomers, particularly in urban areas.

Blu-ray producers question value of bonus features
I recently wrote a column titled, "Is BD-Live Blu-ray's secret weapon--or a bust?" Most readers seemed to think all whiz-bang interactivity features were more busts than secret weapons. And now it appears that a selection of Blu-ray producers speaking at a panel at Comic-Con 2008 feel the same way.

Ava Lavinia Gardner (December 24, 1922 – January 25, 1990) was an American actress. She was signed to a contract by MGM Studios in 1941 and appeared mainly in small roles until she drew attention with her performance in The Killers (1946). She became one of Hollywood's leading actresses and was considered one of the most beautiful women of her day. She was nominated for the Academy Award for Best Actress for her work in Mogambo (1953).
She appeared in several high-profile films from the 1950s to 1970s, including The Hucksters (1947), Show Boat (1951), The Snows of Kilimanjaro (1952), The Barefoot Contessa (1954), Bhowani Junction (1956), On the Beach (1959), Seven Days in May (1964), The Night of the Iguana (1964), The Life and Times of Judge Roy Bean (1972), Earthquake (1974), and The Cassandra Crossing (1976). Gardner continued to act regularly until 1986, four years before her death in London in 1990 at the age of 67.
She is listed 25th among the American Film Institute's Greatest Female Stars.[1]
Early years[edit]
Gardner was born in the farming community of Smithfield, Johnston County, North Carolina, the youngest of seven children (she had two brothers, Raymond and Melvin, and four sisters, Beatrice, Elsie Mae, Inez, and Myra). Her parents, Mary Elizabeth "Mollie" (née Baker) and Jonas Bailey Gardner, were poor cotton and tobacco farmers. Her ancestry was said to include Scots-Irish, English, Irish, French Huguenot, and American Indian (Tuscarora).[2][3][4] She was raised a Baptist. While the children still were young, the Gardners lost their property, forcing Jonas Gardner to work at a sawmill and Mollie to begin working as a cook and housekeeper at a dormitory for teachers at the nearby Brogden School.
When Gardner was seven years old, the family decided to try their luck in a larger city, Newport News, Virginia, where Mollie Gardner found work managing a boarding house for the city's many shipworkers. While in Newport News, Gardner's father became ill and died from bronchitis in 1938, when Ava was 15 years old. After Jonas Gardner's death, the family moved to Rock Ridge near Wilson, North Carolina, where Mollie Gardner ran another boarding house for teachers. Gardner attended high school in Rock Ridge and she graduated from there in 1939. She then attended secretarial classes at Atlantic Christian College in Wilson for about a year.
Early career[edit]
Gardner was visiting her sister Beatrice ("Bappie") in New York in 1941 when Beatrice's husband Larry Tarr, a professional photographer, offered to take her portrait. He was so pleased with the results that he displayed the finished product in the front window of his Tarr Photography Studio on Fifth Avenue.[citation needed] A Loews Theatres legal clerk, Barnard "Barney" Duhan, spotted Gardner's photo in Tarr's studio. At the time, Duhan often posed as an MGM talent scout to meet girls, using the fact that MGM was a subsidiary of Loews. Duhan entered Tarr's and tried to get Gardner's number, but was rebuffed by the receptionist. Duhan made the offhand comment, "Somebody should send her info to MGM", and the Tarrs did so immediately. Shortly after, Gardner, who at the time was a student at Atlantic Christian College, traveled to New York to be interviewed at MGM's New York office by Al Altman, head of MGM's New York talent department. With cameras rolling, he directed the eighteen-year-old to walk towards the camera, turn and walk away, then rearrange some flowers in a vase. He did not attempt to record her voice because her Southern accent made it almost impossible for him to understand her. Though Al thought Ava the most beautiful woman he'd ever seen, he believed the test was a disaster and was completely surprised by what he saw in the screening room. Onscreen she was magnetic. The camera loved her. He sent the test to Hollywood. Louis B. Mayer, head of the studio, sent a telegram to Al: "She can't sing, she can't act, she can't talk, She's terrific!" She was offered a standard contract by MGM, and left school for Hollywood in 1941 with her sister Bappie accompanying her. MGM's first order of business was to provide her a speech coach, as her Carolina drawl was nearly incomprehensible to them.[5]
After five years of bit parts, mostly at MGM and many of them uncredited, Gardner came to prominence in the Mark Hellinger-produced smash hit film noir The Killers (1946), which introduced Burt Lancaster to the screen in the lead role.
Other films include The Hucksters (1947) with Clark Gable,A Touch Of Venus (1948), Show Boat (1951), The Snows of Kilimanjaro (1952) with Gregory Peck, Lone Star (1952) with Clark Gable, Mogambo (1953) with Clark Gable and Grace Kelly, 1954's The Barefoot Contessa with Humphrey Bogart (which some consider to be Gardner's "signature film" since it mirrored her real-life custom of going barefoot), Bhowani Junction (1956), The Sun Also Rises with Tyrone Power and Errol Flynn (in which she played party-girl Brett Ashley) (1957), and the film version of Nevil Shute's best-selling On the Beach with Peck and Fred Astaire. Off-camera, she could be witty and pithy, as in her assessment of director John Ford, who directed Mogambo ("The meanest man on earth. Thoroughly evil. Adored him!")[6]
She found herself billed between Charlton Heston and David Niven in the epic 55 Days at Peking in 1963, a lavish version of the Chinese revolt against foreign control during the Boxer Rebellion in 1900. The following year, she played her last great leading role in a superlative film, The Night of the Iguana (1964), based upon a Tennessee Williams play and starring Richard Burton as an atheist clergyman and Deborah Kerr as a gentle artist traveling with her aged poet grandfather. John Huston directed the movie in Puerto Vallarta Mexico, insisting on making the film in black and white, a decision he later regretted because of the vivid colors of the flora. Gardner received billing below Burton but above Deborah Kerr. Gardner was nominated for a BAFTA and a Golden Globe award for her hearty performance in this signature role. She next appeared again with Lancaster, this time along with Kirk Douglas and Fredric March, in Seven Days in May (1964), a taut thriller about an attempted military takeover of the US government.
Two years later, in 1966, Gardner briefly sought the role of Mrs. Robinson in Mike Nichols' The Graduate (1967). She reportedly called Nichols and said, "I want to see you! I want to talk about this Graduate thing!" Nichols never seriously considered her for the part, preferring to cast a younger woman (Anne Bancroft was 36 while Gardner was 45), but he did visit her hotel, where he later recounted that "she sat at a little French desk with a telephone, she went through every movie star cliché. She said, 'All right, let's talk about your movie. First of all, I strip for nobody.'"[7]
Gardner moved to London, England in 1968, undergoing an elective hysterectomy to allay her worries of contracting the uterine cancer that had claimed the life of her own mother. That year, she made what some consider to be one of her best films, Mayerling, in which she played the supporting role of Austrian Empress Elisabeth of Austria opposite James Mason as Emperor Franz Joseph I.
She appeared in a number of disaster films throughout the 1970s, notably Earthquake (1974) with Charlton Heston, The Cassandra Crossing (1976), and the Canadian movie City on Fire (1979). She also appeared briefly as Lillie Langtry at the end of The Life and Times of Judge Roy Bean (1972) with Paul Newman and Jacqueline Bisset, and in The Blue Bird (1976) with Elizabeth Taylor and Jane Fonda.
Her last movie was Regina Roma (1982), a direct-to-video release. In the 1980s she acted primarily on television, including the mini-series remake of The Long Hot Summer (1985) and the prime-time soap opera Knots Landing, also in 1985. In 1986 she appeared in her two final projects, the TV movies Harem and Maggie.
Personal life[edit]
Soon after her arrival in Los Angeles, Gardner met fellow MGM contract player, Mickey Rooney. They married on January 10, 1942, in Ballard, California; she was 19 years old and he was 21; they divorced in 1943. He reputedly rhapsodized about their sex life later, but Gardner said, "He may have enjoyed the sex, but [goodness knows] I didn't."[citation needed] She once characterized their marriage as Love Finds Andy Hardy.
Gardner's second marriage was brief as well, to jazz musician and bandleader, Artie Shaw, from 1945 to 1946. Shaw had previously been married to Lana Turner
Gardner's third and last marriage was to singer and actor, Frank Sinatra, from 1951 to 1957. She would later say in her autobiography that he was the love of her life. Sinatra left his wife, Nancy, for Gardner and their subsequent marriage made headlines. Sinatra was blasted by gossip columnists Hedda Hopper and Louella Parsons, the Hollywood establishment, the Roman Catholic Church, and by his fans for leaving his wife for a noted femme fatale. Gardner used her considerable influence, particularly with Harry Cohn's wife, to get Sinatra cast in his Oscar-winning role in From Here to Eternity (1953). That role and the award revitalized both Sinatra's acting and singing careers.
The Gardner–Sinatra marriage was tumultuous. Gardner confided to Artie Shaw, her second husband, that "With him [Frank] it's impossible … it's like being with a woman. He's so gentle. It's as though he thinks I'll break, as though I'm a piece of Dresden china and he's gonna hurt me." [8] During their marriage Gardner became pregnant twice, but she had two abortions. "MGM had all sorts of penalty clauses about their stars having babies," she said.[9] She said years later, "We couldn't even take care of ourselves. How were we going to take care of a baby?"[citation needed] Gardner and Sinatra remained good friends for the rest of her life.
Gardner became a friend of businessman and aviator, Howard Hughes, in the early to mid-1940s and the relationship lasted into the 1950s. Gardner stated in her autobiography Ava: My Story, that she was never in love with Howard Hughes, but he was in and out of her life for about twenty years. Hughes's trust in Gardner was what kept their relationship alive. She describes him as "painfully shy, completely enigmatic and more eccentric...than anyone [she] had ever met." [10]
After Gardner divorced Sinatra in 1957, heading for Spain, she began a friendship with writer Ernest Hemingway (she had starred in his The Sun Also Rises that year). While staying with Hemingway at his villa in San Francisco de Paula in Havana, Cuba, Gardner once swam alone without a swimsuit in his pool. After watching her, Hemingway ordered to his staff: "The water is not to be emptied".[11] Gardner's friendship with Hemingway led to her becoming a fan of bullfighting and bullfighters, such as Luis Miguel Dominguín, who became her lover. "It was a sort of madness, honey," she said later of the time.[citation needed]
Gardner was also involved in a relationship with her live-in boyfriend and companion, American actor Benjamin Tatar, who worked in Spain as a foreign-language dubbing director.[12] Tatar later wrote an autobiography in which he discussed his relationship with Gardner, though the book was never published.[12]
While George C. Scott was divorced from Colleen Dewhurst (1965-1967), he developed a stormy relationship with Gardner, fueling their bouts with alcohol, continuing an age-old problem dating back to his military service.
After a lifetime of smoking, Gardner suffered from emphysema, a terminal disease, in addition to an auto-immune disorder (which may have been lupus).[citation needed]
Two strokes in 1986 left her partially paralyzed and bedridden. Although Gardner could afford her medical expenses, Sinatra wanted to pay for her visit to a specialist in the United States, and she allowed him to make the arrangements for a medically staffed private plane. Her last words (to her housekeeper, Carmen), were reportedly, "I'm so tired," before she died of pneumonia at the age of 67. Gardner died at her London home, 34 Ennismore Gardens, where she had lived since 1968.
Gardner was buried in the Sunset Memorial Park, Smithfield, North Carolina, next to her brothers and their parents, Jonas (1878–1938) and Mollie Gardner (1883–1943). The town of Smithfield now has an Ava Gardner Museum.
In the last years of her life, Gardner asked Peter Evans to ghostwrite her autobiography, stating, "I either write the book or sell the jewels." Despite meeting with Evans frequently and approving of most of his copy, Gardner eventually learned that Evans, along with the BBC, had once been sued by her ex-husband Frank Sinatra. Gardner and Evans's friendship subsequently cooled and Evans left the project. Evans's notes and sections of his draft of Gardner's autobiography, which he based on their taped conversations, were published in the book Ava Gardner: The Secret Conversations after Evan's death in 2012.
Award nominations[edit]
Gardner was nominated for an Academy Award for Mogambo (1953); the award was won by Audrey Hepburn for Roman Holiday. Her performance as Maxine Faulk in The Night of the Iguana (1964) was well reviewed, and she was nominated for a BAFTA Award and a Golden Globe.
Film portrayals[edit]
Gardner has been portrayed by Marcia Gay Harden in the 1992 TV mini-series Sinatra; Deborah Kara Unger in HBO's 1998 television movie The Rat Pack; Kate Beckinsale in the 2004 Howard Hughes biopic The Aviator; and Anna Drijver in the 2012 Italian TV film Walter Chiari - Fino all'ultima risata.[13] (Strangely for a Martin Scorsese film, The Aviator commits a huge mistake by showing Hughes escorting her to the premiere of the 1939 movie The Women--a full two years before she even arrived in Hollywood.)

Wish we could submit our own ideas for new Monopoly pieces.
Attachment 16642
Keep the cat.
Get rid of the wheelbarrow.
I like the cat/ the iron can go.
I was thinking that the iron is pretty dated so maybe that should go, but then again, most of the pieces could use a bit of an update.......LOL
This kind of makes me sad! The new pieces are all neat, but I think I'll be replacing my long lost Monopoly game with a new one before the new piece makes it's debut.
...can we please just lose the lame-azz thimble?...thank you P. Bros...now, here's MY suggestion...(tongue in cheek of course)...little people holding hands in bathtubs(to honor the plethora of Cialis commercials), a 32oz Soda, Donald Trump's hairpiece, and a battling Minaj/Carey duo figure....
LOL.. Two can play that game (pun intended).

Dowden unveils Huntington University's strategic plan
Huntington, Ind.—Change and continuity were recurring themes this morning as Huntington University President Dr. G. Blair Dowden unveiled the institution's newly adopted strategic plan. Dowden's remarks were presented before the breakfast meeting of the Huntington University Foundation.
"We have a new name and several new or expanded academic programs, but our mission remains the same," Dowden said. "As we grow and change through this new Strategic Plan, we will continue to be a Christ-centered, student focused campus characterized by academic excellence."
The Huntington University Board of Trustees adopted the new strategic plan in late April, Dowden said. The plan is the result of a year-long effort by the University Innovation Task Force, a 24-member group of faculty, staff, students, administrators and trustees.
Dowden explained that the plan is guided by a strategic vision for the future. He announced that the University intends to double in size, increasing enrollment to 2,000 students by 2016.
Other goals include doubling the endowment (currently valued at $21 million), raising the five-year graduation rate, strengthening the academic ethos of the campus, and reaching competitive compensation targets for faculty and staff.
Dr. Ann McPherren
To assist with the coordination, development, implementation and monitoring of the new strategic plan and process, business professor Dr. Ann McPherren has been appointed as vice president for university planning and strategy.
"I'm excited to have the opportunity to help Huntington University plan for the future," said McPherren, who celebrates 25 years of service at the University this year. "We continue to strive to help students develop able minds and loving hearts to serve our local community and the world beyond it. We have been blessed with more than 100 years of service in Christian higher education and want to sow the seeds in planning that will lead to even more effective service in the coming years."
Dowden explained that a series of university-wide strategies will help the institution achieve the goals laid out in the plan. These include:
Implement a continuous planning and assessment process across the University.
Foster proposals for enriching and expanding the academic enterprise.
Assure an appropriate experiential academic learning component for each student.
Collaborate in meaningful ways with strategic partners.
Establish a center for spiritual formation that engages the entire campus, connects with every other program as well as serves as a resource for spiritual formation.
Restructure adult and graduate programs to provide excellence in education and to take advantage of opportunities for appropriate growth.
Enrich our campus community by engaging persons from a variety of cultural and socioeconomic backgrounds, and exposing students, faculty and staff to cross-cultural environments.
Dowden said that these changes will strengthen the University's ability to fulfill its 109 year-old mission: To provide a high quality, Christ-centered educational program that prepares men and women to impact the world for Christ.
The University anticipates that additional facilities and resources will be needed to accomplish the goals of the Strategic Plan. In 2002, the Christian liberal arts college adopted a long-range Facilities Master Plan to guide campus development and accommodate additional growth. Dowden indicated that the University was beginning to prepare for a multi-million capital campaign.
The text of Huntington University's newly adopted Strategic Plan is available for review online at http://www.huntington.edu/slrp/lrp0510.
Excerpt from 2006 Strategic Plan: Vision Statement
The goal of Huntington University is to educate men and women to impact our world for Christ through high-quality, Christ-centered education. The University seeks to honor Christ through scholarship and service.
It is our intent to provide a premier Christian college experience that integrates faith, learning and service. We will be a leading Christian university community of 2,000 students characterized by a strong national reputation for academic excellence, the ability to attract and retain outstanding faculty and staff, and high levels of satisfaction and engagement among students, faculty, and staff.
This is an ambitious goal which will require our innovative thinking and action to strengthen and expand high-potential academic programs, increase financial health and revenue, broaden reputation, and consider alternative educational enterprises.
The end result will be a University in the tradition of the liberal arts that is considered among the top CCCU institutions in the nation and one of the top Christian universities in the region. We will offer a highly personal environment in the midst of larger competing institutions. Students will consider tuition paid a worthwhile investment. Huntington University will be known for a student-focused, Christ-centered campus, excellence and innovation in education, and a nurturing environment which encourages spiritual growth and faith-learning integration. Our graduates will be in demand in the marketplace and for entry into top graduate schools. And most importantly, our growth and development will allow us to more effectively impact the world for Christ.

Excellent FAMILY park. We have a five year old and this was her park. Water slides, activities, Yogi, lot's of fun kids stuff to due. Would definitely go back. Sites in new area on top of hill very nice, but of a slope but step chocks are available, also some noise from the highway. Very clean washrooms and OK WI-FI signal.

Not too bad, close to the highway so some noise, difficult to find (urban area,) sites were very wet due to a lot of rain recently, weak WI-FI signal.

Very nice park, only one pool was open, splash pad was not turned on, play area needed some maintenance. Quiet campground, nice but small stes. Deserving of it's good reputation. Staff very helpful.

text: Eight Movies From Comic-Con That We Can't Wait to See At San Diego Comic Con, we caught clips and trailers from eight great movies coming later in 2011 and in 2012: Fright Night, The Amazing Spider-Man, Men in Black III and many more. By Erin McCarthy Email Comments 0 Share Back 3 of 8 Next View Thumbnails Return to Gallery View Thumbnails Return to Gallery View Thumbnails In Time Out: October 28, 2011 Set at some point in the not-too-distant future, In Time depicts a society where time has replaced money as currency. After a person turns 25óthe point at which the frontal lobe of the brain has fully developedthey're given one year to live. To stay alive past this, they must earn more time or have it transferred to themselves. And when they run out of time, characters drop dead. "It's a child of Gattaca, I think," says Andrew Niccol, who wrote and directed both Gattaca and In Time. "I always knew that the holy grail of genetic engineering was discovering and switching off the aging gene. They have found the aging gene in certain species, and you know that we are such a youth-obsessed society that if we could switch it off, we would. So maybe one day we will. I knew the implications were so enormous that it would be another movie." Will, played by Justin Timberlake, awakes each day with 23 hours on his clock. "He has to work or diehe has to buy more time," Niccol says. "The flip side of that is Sylvia, Amanda Seyfried's character, who has thousands of years at her disposal. And so she does nothing, while he has to basically run his whole life." When a rich man gives Will a century's worth of time, he takes Sylvia hostage and goes on the run from the police (who think he murdered the rich man) and from the people who want to steal his newfound temporal fortune. Timberlake was thrilled to be on board for the film. "Andrew has an uncanny ability to take a subject matter like what we have, create a huge thrill ride out of it, and at the same time say this might be a reflection of where we're headed very soon," he says. Niccol did much research for the film with a very important source: His father, a scientist. "The crazy thing is almost any sort of fantasy I've come up with, I think, 'Oh well, that probably hasn't been thought of, and no one's working on it,' [but] they are," Niccol says. "What I like is [that this premise is] just an extrapolation of today. People are already going to such extremes to look young, so this is taking it to its logical conclusion."

The 2013 version of the Jeffersonville boys' track team may not be its deepest, most experienced or most talented in the past 41 years, but that shouldn't keep the Red Devils from winning a state-record 41st sectional title on Thursday.
While talented Silver Creek, Madison and Southwestern teams will push Jeff, the heat sheets have at least one Devil in the top seven of every event.
"I think we're going to have more competition than we have in recent years," Jeff coach Mark Felix said. "If we have any unfortunate circumstances occur, we might be in trouble. But I fully expect to win."
Tyrell Dowdell is the top seed in the 400, just ahead of teammate David Morales. Dowdell and Isaiah Blanton are ranked second and third in the 100 and the 200. Chase Scott is the favorite in the long jump and Tyler Kahl is seeded fourth. DeSean Daugherty is the second seed in the 110 high hurdles and No. 4 in the 300 hurdles. Tymon Brown and Nash Rivers are also the second and third seeds, respectively, in the shot put, and Rivers is ranked fifth in the discus.
Silver Creek is likely to have the most sectional champions. The Dragons have seven top-seeded athletes. Schuyler Hosp is the favorite in the shot put and discus and Isaak Haas is seeded first in both distance events. Marciez Sewell is the No. 1 seed in the 300 hurdles, Zach Davidson is the pre-race 800 favorite and the Dragons' 3,200 relay team is tied with Madison for the best time this season.
"We have six or seven who could potentially win," Silver Creek coach Darrell Kingery said. "That still wouldn't offset what Jeff's able to do."
The Dragons may be the favorites if not for an injury to sprinter Bobby Haines.
"With him, I thought we had a shot," Kingery said. "With everybody healthy, I really thought we had a chance, but without him, I just don't think we can. I've always dreamed about [winning a sectional]. It would be really nice, but you have to have the horses."
Jacob Hedrick is Henryville's top-seeded athlete. He is ranked second to Haas in the 1,600 and third in the 3,200.
For New Washington, Adan Diaz is seeded second in the 300 hurdles behind Sewell, and Ian Hughes is ranked fifth in a tight 400 field.
Eli Daniel of Charlestown is seeded third in the high jump. The top four athletes in each event advance to next Thursday's Bloomington North Regional.
Hoosier Hills Conference champions Floyd Central should have an even easier time winning its 11th straight sectional championship.
The Highlanders have six favorites — most of them heavy favorites — and they have at least one athlete in the top five in 15 of the 16 events.
Floyd is the favorite in the 1,600 relay and figures for at least a top-3 finish in all three relays. Chase Blakeman is the top seed in the 300 hurdles, Jacob Marguet and Taylor Dutton should finish 1-2 in the pole vault and Codie Hamsley seems to be a lock to win the discus and the shot put. He is the state favorite in the discus. Adam Wallace is a slight favorite over Borden's Brian Eurton in the 800.
"We want to get as many into good position for the regional as we can," Floyd coach Lane Oxley said. "This is one of our better teams. We have some big-meet-type athletes and we can get a lot of nickel and dime [points]."
The Highlanders finished third in last year's regional behind Bloomington North and Bloomington South.
Borden's goal is to finish second to the Highlanders, and with the area's top distance crew, they have an outside shot of doing so.
Borden is seeded second in the 1,600 and 3,200 relays and Eurton is ranked second in the 800 and third in the 1,600. Pole Vaulter Michael Lynch and thrower Brett Williams should also pick up valuable points.
"We would like to be able to compete for that," Borden coach Liz Carmony said of finishing as runners-up. "We've talked about it as a good benchmark for us."
Defending 100 state champion Marquise Parrish is the top seed in the 100, the 200 and is the anchor of the No. 1 seed Bulldog 400 relay team. Teammate Tuwan Payton is the second seed in the 100. Javen Reeves is also the favorite in the high jump for New Albany.
Providence's Owen Mattingly is the top seed in the 110 high hurdles, while Murphy Sheets is a contender to advance in the 1,600 and the 3,200.
Clarksville's Christian Brown is the top seed in the long jump, Josh Grady is seeded third in a tight 400 field and Marquise Parrish is ranked fourth in the 200.
Christian Academy's best shots of advancing are its 3,200 relay team, which is seeded sixth, and Trey Sturdy, the eighth seed in the long jump.
Defending high jump BNL Sectional champion and state finalist Tevin Wolf of Pekin has a shot at advancing to the North Regional in four events.
Wolf is the top seed in the high jump and should battle Brownstown's Hayden Stuckwisch and Salem's Jarred Blevins for the sectional crown. Wolf is also seeded second in the long jump, the 400 meters and as member of the Musketeers' 1,600 relay team.
Eastern's K.J. Davey is also ranked second in the shot put behind Orleans' Danny Campbell.

Right on target
Published on Thu, Dec 2, 2010

Sequim Gazette
Jaiden Grinnell likes to aim high.
And, as often is the case, she hit her target.
Grinnell, a Port Angeles resident and one of the top skeet shooters in the country, earned a place on the national skeet shooting team after winning the fall selection match in Kerrville, Texas, in early September.
Grinnell is one of three American athletes aiming to score the single berth to the 2012 Summer Olympic Games in London.
Now a student at the University of Colorado, Grinnell joins roommate Caitlin Connor in trying to oust Kim Rhode, a two-time gold medalist and four-time Olympian, from the lone American berth.
Grinnell studied under the tutelage of Sequim's Matt Dryke, the 1984 gold medalist, and has since become a force on the national skeet shooting team. In 2010 she placed second at the Junior Olympics in Colorado Springs, Colo., took silver in the junior women's division at the World Championships in Munich, and finally took home gold at the fall selection match in Kerr-ville, earning herself a spot on the USA world team along with Connor and Rhode.
"I feel like I'm on the right track," Grinnell says. "Making that world team, it'll give me a fighting chance at least."
Grinnell and Connor have some work to do, as Rhode racked up 53 points in a single season (shooters need 45 points to qualify for selection) while the two younger athletes are battling to hit that 45-point plateau.
Going up against a four-time Olympian may seem difficult, but Grinnell says she's prepared.
"It's a little daunting, but she (Rhode) is mortal," Grinnell says. "It'll be a battle to the end."
Her whirlwind season includes:
• 2010 National championships (Colorado Springs, Colo.), a bronze in open women's skeet, named to the National open women's skeet team along with Rhode and Connor
• 2010 Junior Olympics (Colorado Springs, Colo.), silver medalist in women's skeet
• 2010 world championships (Munich, Germany), the junior women's silver medalist, beating China's Zhang Yue in a shoot-off; and a gold medal in team scoring
• 2010 fall selection match (Kerrville, Texas), a gold medal in open women's skeet
A college student — when she can be Grinnell now lives in Colorado Springs, home to USA Shooting's Olympic Games training center.
"I can't take that many classes because I'm gone so much," Grinnell says, noting that she took two classes this semester. And from December through March, she figures she'll be in town perhaps a month. That's why she utilizes online classes and doesn't load up while she's in season.
"It (2011) is going to be a pretty hectic year (but) I'd rather be traveling than not traveling," she says.
Ramping up for the 2010 London Games, Grinnell and Connor will be chasing Rhode as they compete at three key events — World Cup events in Concepción, Chile, in early March; Sydney, Australia, in late March; then to Beijing in April — before the World Championships in Belgrade, Serbia, this September.
Grinnell says it's good to have a teammate and competitor as a roommate. She says that Connor, a Winfield, La., native, supports her as she supports Connor.
"We'll always be a team no matter what," Grinnell says. "We support each other because if I don't medal — if anyone has to — I'd rather it be her. That makes us push ourselves harder. It definitely helps to have someone living with you that's in the same boat."
Like Connor, Grinnell has a major sponsor in Krieghoff International, a gun manufacturer in Germany. Grinnell now has a custom-made gun that she hopes will help get her to London about 18 months from now.
"I've been shooting the gun for a couple of months. It fits great and shoots great," she says.
Grinnell, a 2010 Port Angeles High School graduate, admits she's put a lot of things on hold for a while, including having a social life and a full load of college courses. But she says it's worth it.
"I made a pact with my dad (Kurt) that if I stopped having fun I wouldn't do it anymore," Grinnell says.

2010 proved to be another rewarding but challenging year for the City of Homer. The challenges included a continued downturn in the economy and uncertainty about future revenues. Despite this, the City government remains in a fiscally sound and stable position. According to the FY 2010 audit, the City has increased the fund balance in the General Fund by almost $700,000 to $5,573,814. The only outstanding debt is a relatively small library construction loan. Property tax and sales tax revenues both increased slightly over the previous year but total revenues declined by $700,000. Expenditures in the FY 2010 budget were reduced by $500,000 and at year end, there was an excess of revenues over expenditures of $666,563. Although the General Fund is stable and operating in the black, the effects of continued unfunded positions, deferment of equipment and infrastructure repair and replacement, and suspension of transfers into reserve accounts are becoming apparent.
The Port and Harbor Enterprise Fund is operating in the black; however, the political pressure to keep fees down has resulted in a backlog of maintenance, repair, and replacement projects and the depreciation reserves are far less than optimal considering the assets the Fund is responsible for. Fortunately, there are options to increase revenues if necessary. This fund paid off the last of its revenue bonds in 2008 and currently has no outstanding debt. It is recommended that depreciation reserves and fund balances be increased and that methods to fund repairs and upgrades be examined. Operating revenues increased over 2009 by about $150,000 to $3,504,442. Operating expenses decreased by about $200,000 to $4,563,253. The fund is in the black on a cash flow basis. The Port and Harbor is an economic engine for this community and the level of service provided is very high.
The Water and Sewer Enterprise Fund is operating in the black and has adequate reserves. This fund, however, has significant challenges that must be addressed. There is a general feeling by many in the community that water and sewer fees are too high and that the rate structure places an unfair burden on large businesses. A fundamental problem is the City water and sewer is expensive for a variety of reasons and there are relatively few customers to pay the expenses. There is also increasing concern about water and sewer long term debt. Revenues to pay off the debt have declined significantly since 2008 due to the sales tax exemption for non-prepared foods enacted that year. The City must make sure that it will always have adequate reserves to make annual debt payments. The Water and Sewer Fund was changed in 2010 from an enterprise fund to a special revenue fund. On the operations side, revenues exceeded expenditures by $282,125 before a transfer of $500,000 was made to the depreciation account.
The economic downturn and the sales tax exemption for non-prepared foods which occurred in 2009 continued to present challenges in 2010. The FY 2010 operating budget adopted by the City Council contained further reductions. The full impact of these cuts will be felt as time goes on, especially if revenues do not rebound. The City has been very successful in obtaining funding for capital projects and some big ones will get underway in 2011. Unfortunately, the revenues to maintain expanding infrastructure are lagging behind. More discussion will be required on this subject in the future.
The City of Homer strives to be as efficient, productive, and responsive to the needs of its residents as possible. The City's overall success in 2010 was due in large part to the diligence and hard work of the Mayor, the City Council, the Boards and Commissions, citizen volunteers, and dedicated public employees. I believe that a review of this year's annual report will confirm that the City government is functioning at a high level, that its fiscal policies are sound, and that Homer continues to be a very attractive place to live and conduct business. I believe the future for Homer is bright.
Walt Wrede – City Manager
