The 45th Annual CMA Awards will be remembered for some great on-air performances, particularly the incredible, already unforgettable, opening performance of "Footloose" by Blake Shelton and Kenny Loggins...not-to-mention some well-deserved Top Star winners and game-changing new winners being honored in this years awards show spectacular. Repeat co-hosts, Brad Paisley and Carrie Underwood were great when the sang together and greatly funny when it called for patter between awards.
Anybody that saw Taylor Swift's amazing road show this year understands why she was nominated for Entertainer of the year...and her second win in this most coveted category is well-deserved given her constant growth as an entertainer from her teen years to womanhood. Taylor rightfully hugged her mother first when her Entertainer win was announced, and then gave a hug to her visionary label head, Scott Borchetta, his well-deserved reward for having the insight to sign such a fearless and ambitious young teenager named Taylor.
Sugarland, Kenny Chesney with Grace Potter, Rascal Flatts with Natasha Bedingfield and the Zac Brown Band, and Faith HIll all took the stage contributing hot performances while Blake Shelton and Miranda Lambert nabbed Male and Female Vocalist of the Year honors, respectively.
Additionally, Vince Gill, Brad Paisley and Keith Urban teamed up to pay tribute to Glen Campbell for his amazing career in country music while sketches with muppets and an old Justin Bieber impersonator were intertwined to draw a few laughs.
AND, the Band Perry has officially arrived to star status last night thanks to the Kimberly Perry-written "If I Die Young" winning both Single and Song of the year honors."
HERE'S THE COMPLETE LIST of 2011 CMA Awards winners is as follows:
Entertainer of the Year
Taylor Swift
Female Vocalist of the Year

Wife and Husband, Miranda and Blake's back-to-back wins in these categories make it no doubt who's country music's reigning power couple.
New Artist of the Year
The Band Perry
Vocal Group of the Year
Lady Antebellum
Vocal Duo of the Year

Album of the Year
WINNER: "My Kinda Party," Jason Aldean
Jason reacted, "What a year!" Before thanking his family and singling out co-winner producer Michael Knox. "He's like my big brother," Aldean said. "This guy found me in a club in Atlanta, Georgia, brought me to Nashville 15 years ago and has made every record I've ever done." Jason thanked Knox and all the people that believed in him after he came to Nashville.
Musical Event of the Year
WINNER: "Don't You Wann Stay," Jason Aldean with Kelly Clarkson

Wednesday was a good day for Miranda Lambert. Adding to her big CMA wins, her new album Four The Record debuted atop Billboard's Top Country Albums chart. Miranda Lambert becomes the first country artist in the 47 year history of the chart to have each of her first four albums debut at # 1. With more than 133,000 albums sold, according to Nielsen SoundScan, Four The Record more than doubles the first week sales of her previous album. All three of her prior albums have been certified Platinum! Four The Record debuts at # 3 on the all-genre Billboard 200 chart.
On the feat Lambert said, "Ok, that's crazy! When you start out, you want to blaze your own trail and set your goals, and I always worry about living up to the standard I set for myself. But I hope it says to every artist who is starting out that if you really go with your heart and stick to your guns and feel okay with exercising your creative license, it will all end up great because you are doing what you believe in."
Josh Turner's fourth #1 single "All Over Me" was honored as BMI's "Song of the Year" last night. The award honored the infamous "Peach Pickers" trio- Ben Hayslip, Dallas Davidson and Rhett Akins. The song is on Turner's current album Haywire. In addition, Akins and Davidson took home the prestigious BMI "Songwriter of the Year" crown.
"I couldn't be prouder for Ben, Dallas and Rhett," said Josh Turner. "They are tearing up this town, and are all so deserving to have been named ASCAP and BMI's Songwriters of the Year.

Even before the fabulous awards show that aired last night, ABC AND THE CMA extended their broadcast agreement.
The New 10-Year Agreement Extends Partnership Through 2021
The ABC Television Network and the Country Music Association have extended their broadcast agreement through 2021 announced ABC Entertainment Group President Paul Lee and CMA Chief Executive Officer Steve Moore. The new agreement assures broadcasts of the CMA franchises including the "CMA Awards," the "CMA Festival: Country's Night to Rock," and the "CMA Country Christmas" for another decade.
"We are thrilled that the CMA and Country Music will continue to call ABC their home for the next 10 years. We have built an incredible partnership together, and that partnership will only grow stronger over the next decade," said Lee.
"We value our partnership with ABC and their commitment to CMA and Country Music," said Moore. "ABC has demonstrated a passion for the format and our television properties. We have seen the CMA Music Festival special grow to three hours; we have added a holiday special, 'CMA Country Christmas'; and our crown jewel, the CMA Awards, has reached a new, enthusiastic audience."
Brings Compelling Vocals & New Tunes To Global Market With January 10 EP Rollout
Award-winning songwriter Mark Wayne Glasmire brings his compelling vocals and new tunes to the global market with the January 10, 2012 rollout of his seven-song EP, MARK WAYNE GLASMIRE (Traceway Records). The disc, currently featured on iTunes' Country New And Noteworthy page, includes the International smash, "I Like You," alight-hearted ode that kept the entertainer at #1 on the HotDisc Chart for nine consecutive weeks earlier this year. The EP's first U.S. single, the poignant "Going Home," was released in September. The song, inspired by a conversation Mark had with a friend who was retiring from a decades-long military career, is the subject of Glasmire's debut video, a Harold Jarboe (Bell-Jarboe Films production, http://youtu.be/9u6cl8zjI7A).
Comedy phenomenon Jeff Dunham, hailed as "America's favorite comedian" and "The Hardest Working Hand in Show Business" (Slate) and "perhaps the most popular comedian in the U.S." by Time, recently debuted his fourth standup special "Controlled Chaos."
The special became the most watched cable show on its Sunday, September 25 premiere, drawing 5.5 million viewers to handily take most watched honors in its first airing that night and then being seen by 2.8 million in its later re-air for a total of 8.3 million. And it beat out some stiff competition: Emmy winning shows like "Boardwalk Empire" in its second season debut and "Breaking Bad," the NASCAR Sprint Cup race and TLC's popular "Sister Wives." Plus a repeat of Dunham's already widely-seen and more than million selling "Spark Of Insanity" special also drew 2.2 million to earn Dunham a grand evening total of 10.5 million with all three special showings in the Top 10. DVD & Blu-ray also hit platinum sales in just a week.
YouTube Sensation Keenan Cahill and
The Oak Ridge Boys Debut "What'cha Gonna Do"

In the go figure department, do you know that 80 percent of millionaires drive used cars.

VINCE GILL, BRAD PAISLEY, AND KEITH URBAN PAY TRIBUTE TO GLEN CAMPBELL ON"THE 45TH ANNUAL CMA AWARDS" Reigning CMA Entertainer of the Year Brad Paisley and former CMA Entertainers of the Year Vince Gill and Keith Urban will pay tribute to Country Music Hall of Fame member and former CMA Entertainer of the Year Glen Campbell during "The 45th Annual CMA Awards." The three guitar virtuosos' performance saluting the legendary singer/musician will be a highlight of "Country Music's Biggest Night(tm)." "The 45th Annual CMA Awards," hosted by Paisley and Carrie Underwood, airs live from the Bridgestone Arena in Nashville, Wednesday, Nov. 9 (8:00-11:00 PM/ET) on the ABC Television Network. Previously announced performers include Jason Aldean, The Band Perry, Luke Bryan, Eric Church, Sara Evans, Faith Hill, Lady Antebellum, Miranda Lambert, Martina McBride, Scotty McCreery, Sugarland, Taylor Swift, Thompson Square, Keith Urban, Chris Young, and Zac Brown Band, plus Kenny Chesney and Grace Potter singing their hit collaboration "You and Tequila;" Rascal Flatts and Natasha Bedingfield singing their current hit duet "Easy;" Lionel Richie performing a medley of hits with Little Big Town, Rascal Flatts, and Darius Rucker; and co-hosts Paisley and Underwood in their first live televised-performance of their No. 1 song "Remind Me." Campbell was named both CMA Entertainer and Male Vocalist of the Year in 1968, and was inducted into the Country Music Hall of Fame in 2005. The legendary performer has sold more than 45 million albums and recorded such classic hits as "Wichita Lineman," "Gentle On My Mind," "Galveston," "By the Time I Get to Phoenix," "Southern Nights," and "Rhinestone Cowboy." As a musician, Campbell was part of the much-heralded Wrecking Crew that performed on a variety of artists' albums. His guitar prowess is featured on the Beach Boys' seminal album Pet Sounds and on Frank Sinatra's megahit "Strangers in the Night," among others. He acted alongside John Wayne in the movie "True Grit," and hosted "The Glen Campbell Goodtime Hour" on televisi on from 1968-1972. Earlier this year, Campbell announced he had been diagnosed with Alzheimer's disease. He is in the midst of his successful Goodbye Tour after releasing his final album, the critically-acclaimed Ghost on the Canvas.
TAYLOR CONFESSES THERE'S NO MAN IN HER LIFEOn a recent visit to the "Ellen DeGeneres Show," Taylor Swift confessed that she currently has no man in her life. She told Ellen it was partly because she's so busy. But, explained that mostly it's because she's looking for just the right guy. "I don't want to be the person with a stream of boyfriends. I want to be like that girl that when she falls in love it's a rare thing.
ELI YOUNG BAND THANKS ZAC BROWN BAND FOR OPEN DOORS The guys in Eli Young Band all have their own favorite music and influences, but one band they all agree is a band they admire and respect is the Zac Brown Band. Jon says, "They"ve opened so many doors for bands in country music which I think is great and hopefully we can do the same for other acts. [We] had a chance to play with them and they"re not only great musicians but also great people." Mike agrees and he says one thing they love about Zac Brown Band is that "they really think out of the box musically, and I think that we"ve always tried to be a band that we don"t try to just stay middle of the road. We really try to make music that is impactful and is kind of hitting on new territory and I think that Zac Brown Band being as much of a success as they have as of recently, they really have continued opening doors for bands like us." Eli Young Band is currently celebrating their top five song "Crazy Girl" out on the Country & Cold Cans Tour with Dierks Bentley and Jerrod Niemann. (AUDIO)ALSO:ELI YOUNG BAND IS CERTIFIED PLATINUM – HEADED TO NYC TO PERFORM ON LATE SHOW WITH DAVID LETTERMAN - EARNS AMERICAN COUNTRY AWARD NOMINATION FOR BREAKTHROUGH ARTIST OF THE YEARRepublic Nashville artist Eli Young Band has much reason to celebrate. The band has been certified PLATINUM by the RIAA for sales of over 1 million downloads of their runaway hit "Crazy Girl." The song climbs to #2 this week on both the Billboard Hot Country Singles Chart and the USA Today/Country Aircheck powered by Medibase Chart and continues to grow. "Crazy Girl" has been embraced by fans nationwide who have called into radio stations and have tracked over 6,000,000 views of the video on YouTube alone. The band is scheduled to perform their smash hit next Thursday, November 3 on Late Show With David Letterman."The saying be careful what you wish for because you just might get it, is really coming true this year for us," said James Young. "Having a platinum single is one of the things we've always dreamed about. Thank you to the fans and country radio for allowing us to do what we love night after night, and for truly making our dreams come true."EYB recently earned their career first American Country Award nomination for Breakthrough Artist Of The Year and is currently on tour opening for Dierks Bentley. This week the band will take a short break from touring to head to New York for their appearance on the Late Show With David Letterman, then will continue touring with Dierks through November 19 where they will make their final appearance of the tour just outside of Denver in Broomfield, CO.THE BAND PERRY MUST BE DEMOCRATIC TO SURVIVEKimberly, Reid and Neil Perry are 28, 23 and 21 years old, respectively and while they operate The Band Perry as a democracy for the most part, they admit there are times when they each try to get their way. "We each get one vote except for on days when I try to barter for two," confesses Kimberly. But Neil says, "Actually I think Reid gets two votes sometimes." Reid thinks it has something to do with him being the middle child. Kimberly admits that all three of them are pretty vocal with their opinions, but she says, "Our parents always taught us, since we were like this tall, to be gracious to one another and so sometimes they encouraged us by grounding. But regardless of how they got the point across, they did." Fortunately, says Neil, "Musically, actually, we generally, usually agree on everything because we did grow up listening to the same kind of music. So musically we pretty much agree on everything." Kimberly jokes, "Until we don"t. But then we do." KELLIE PICKLER IS "100 PROOF" RELEASES INTOXICATING NEW ALBUM Kellie Pickler will release her third album, 100 Proof on January 24, 2012. "I'm just happy to be making country music," said Pickler. "I hope everyone enjoys the new music as much as I've enjoyed making it!" Pickler set out to get back to her southern roots on 100 Proof and make a traditional and fresh sounding country album. To help her achieve her goals she enlisted producers Frank Liddell (Miranda Lambert and Lee Ann Womack) and Luke Wooten. The album-opener "Where's Tammy Wynette" (written by Jimmy Ritchey, Don Poythress and Leslie Satcher), sets the tone of 100 Proof with its raw and un-conventional sound. Pickler co-wrote 6 of the 11 songs on 100 Proof including "Long As I Never See You Again" which she wrote with famed songwriters Dean Dillon and Dale Dodson. Fans can pre-order the 11 song album, 100 Proof, now on Amazon at: http://amzn.to/tuXnZl <http://amzn.to/tuXnZl>
TOBY KEITH GLAD TROOOPS ARE COMING HOMEToby Keith guested on HLN's "The Joy Behar Show" yesterday and they chatted about a wide variety of topics including Toby's new album, Clancy's Tavern, and his run-a-way hit song and video of "Red Solo Cup," plus, politics, and the decision to pull our troops out of Iraq. Toby is for it saying, "After 9 years and 180 shows there, I don't see that there's much reason for our troops to remain in the country.On politics Toby reveals he's a registered "Independent" voter noting that his family, including him had been Democrats for generations. He said that since neither of the major parties had been doing a very good job in recent years he didn't want to support either of the right now. BRAD PAISLEY HAPPY BIRTHDAY TODAYHappy birthday to Brad today! And look for Brad's book, Diary of a Player, set for release next Tuesday! Co-written with David Wild, it's Brad's salute to the musical heroes who helped shape his love of the guitar. The book is already attracting praise, with Publishers Weekly declaring that Brad "certainly entertains in this charming story of his road to success." Check it out! Meanwhile...Brad Paisley talks about the theme of his new song, "Camouflage." "I like lookin' for that little thing — we have those on every record — the songs like 'Water' where you find a subject and how that relates to the country lifestyle and write a song about it. And they're more difficult than you think to write, especially that one, and that was the one this time where it felt like that's the lifestyle I want to touch on that I see that we all have in our closets in this format."KEITH URBAN PLAYS HIS HITS, GETS A BIRTHDAY SERENADE FROM OPRY AUDIENCE TUESDAY NIGHTKeith Urban sang his hits for a sold-out Opry House audience Tuesday night, and the audience sang right back. After Keith performed his first song of the night, "Sweet Thing," fans who were gathered near the stage serenaded the superstar with "Happy Birthday" in honor of his birthday on Wednesday. Urban concluded his Opry set with "Making Memories of Us" and "Where the Blacktop Ends." Urban is scheduled to return to the Opry twice next month.MIRANDA LAMBERT's NEW ALBUM, FOUR THE RECORD, ARRIVES 11-1It's almost here! Miranda Lambert's hotly awaited fourth album, Four the Record, releases this Tuesday, 11-1-11! Miranda kicks-off her album release week with a performance on NBC's Today show on Tuesday, followed by an interview and performance on Wednesday's edition of Live! with Regis and Kelly. She'll be singing Four the Record's first smash single, "Baggage Claim," on both shows, and the song's dynamic groove says a lot about Miranda's music in general — not just her growth as an artist, but also a reflection of the range of influences that make Miranda's brand of country distinctly her own. RONNIE DUNN LOVES THE CHANGE OF SEASONSRonnie Dunn's and Ronnie says that fall is definitely his favorite time of year. "I was out a couple of days ago. I like to go out and just sit with my camera, and I planted, like, corn and things like that where the animals would come down from the woods. The deer and birds and all the stuff like that. I was fishin' the other day, and I looked up — I thought there was a buzzard or somethin' flyin' over me, and it was a bald eagle. This is my favorite time of the year when the colors change and the weather starts turning a little cooler."

CHESNEY RELIVES "GOING COASTAL TOUR" WITH REALITY VIDEO Kenny Chesney's high-octane live show is the star of his new music video for 'Reality,' the fifth single from his platinum-selling album 'Hemingway's Whiskey' (BNA). The video, directed by longtime Chesney collaborator Shaun Silva, is a four-minute highlight reel of the star's record-shattering 'Goin' Coastal' Tour this summer. 'The video is a great snapshot of our life on the road this summer,' said Chesney. 'It defines the energy, heart, and passion that the fans and I share every night.' The video for 'Reality' begins with Chesney donning NFL helmets perched atop several of the massive stadiums he performed at this summer, including New Jersey's MetLife Stadium, Kansas City's Arrowhead Stadium, and Green Bay's Lambeau Field. Besides the energetic Chesney, the video also showcases his rip-roaring live band along with many of the 1.3 million fans who 'broke free from reality' to witness the historic 'Goin' Coastal' Tour. Watch the 'Reality' music video on CMT.com: http://www.cmt.com/videos/kenny-chesney/701097/reality.jhtml This past weekend, Chesney performed an intimate acoustic set for former President Bill Clinton at the 'Decade of Difference' event, celebrating 10 years of the William J. Clinton Foundation. Grace Potter joined Chesney for a rendition of 'You and Tequila,' a stirring highlight on a night that also featured performances by Lady Gaga, Usher, and Bono.

The single, written by Tom Gossin and Josh Kear, is from the band's forthcoming second studio album on Emblem Music Group/ Warner Bros. Records. Gloriana, made up of brothers Tom and Mike Gossin along with Rachel Reinert, are currently out on the road through the end of the year. The threesome will be performing shows across the country including a show for the troops stationed at Freedom Crossing at Fort Bliss at the end of the month and will make a special return to Mike and Tom's former hometown of Wilmington, North Carolina where they will perform with the Wilmington Symphony on November 5th. Fans can get up to date information on the tour, with shows being added, by going to www.Gloriana.com <http://www.gloriana.com/> . '(Kissed You) Good Night is ultimately a song about courage and confidence - two things that we've all struggled with in life,' said Tom Gossin. 'It's a very relatable song that's great to perform live because you can just tell it strikes a chord with people.' RACING STAR'S LIFE CELEBRATED Dan Wheldon's life was celebrated this weekend with a private funeral Saturday in St. Petersburg, Florida and Sunday with a public memorial at Indianapolis' Conesco Fieldhouse, in the city where Wheldon had won his 2011 Indy 500 championship. Special guests included Garth Brooks who performed 'The Dance', Reba who performed 'If I Had Only Known' and The Band Perry who delivered a medley of 'Go Rest High On This Mountain/Amazing Grace'. Note: Ashley Judd also attended along with her husband, driver, Dario Franchitti, who has had close calls with death on the track as well. TAYLOR SWIFT WORKS HARD TO MAKE TOUR LOOK FLAWLESS We've mentioned before how amazingly complicated and event-filled Taylor Swift's tour show is, not-to-mention enormously entertaining. When you see Taylor Swift's Speak Now World Tour she makes the performances and visuals look effortless, but the truth is the show is a very complex and intricate production. "Putting together this tour was something that took about a year,"explains Taylor. "This tour is incredibly detailed and it took a while to really get all the pieces put together. That involved me learning how to be hoisted out of a pop up lift like being launched, like you're being launched out of a catapult, launched out of the floor and all those little things that just kind of elevated this show and made it special.' There is an intense amount of choreography and staging and Taylor says, 'All of it had to be learned and it took a long time but it was worth it in the end." The US leg of the soldout Speak Now World Tour will run through mid-November, before heading to Australia and New Zealand in early 2012. On November 21st, fans will have a front row seat to the unforgettable show as Taylor releases SPEAK NOW WORLD TOUR: LIVE, a live CD/DVD collection. Preorder the project here.

'It's really exciting for us to get in there and the three of us work on our music together without any outside influence,' says Jay. 'We love working with Dann Huff. He's going to do the rest of the record and he's brilliant but it was a really great creative outlet for us to get in there and sort of experiment ourselves and make some of the music ourselves so we're really, really excited about that.' Rascal Flatts is also excited about the quality of songs they've been receiving to record. 'There are a few writers and a few people in town that we feel like just get what we do and always come with A-list material. And so grateful for them for capturing our vision and sort of getting what Rascal Flatts is all about. Sort of harnessing that into their music and I'm just thrilled.' In the meantime, the band just announced their 2012 Thaw Out Tour, featuring songs from REBA LOVED WORKING WITH ED ASNER ON NEW VIDEO Reba's video for her latest single, 'Somebody"s Chelsea,' features a guest appearance by actor Ed Asner, and Reba says, 'Oh my gosh, when Ed Asner agreed to do the video for Somebody"s Chelsea, I was ecstatic. He is a wonderful actor that I have admired for many, many years.' Ed plays the old man that Reba sings about in the song, the one who shares his love story and makes her wish she was 'Somebody"s Chelsea.' They meet on an airplane in the video and Reba says, 'To get to meet him and get to set in that play-like airplane seat with him all afternoon was so nice.' BRANTLEY GILBERT PROVIDES CLOSURE WITH DELUXE EDITION
Brantley Gilbert's latest album, Halfway to Heaven: Deluxe Edition, is an expanded version of an album he had previously released. He chose to re-release the album with some new songs and bonus video content because he felt like the story on the first album wasn't complete and these new songs served that purpose. 'The fans that already had the album … they can get a little bit of closure and get the rest of the story. The three songs we added really do kind of resolve the whole theme of the album.' And for people who never had a chance to pick up the first album, Brantley says with the Deluxe Edition, 'They get the whole story. So, that was our main goal.' ALL OF MARTINA McBRIDE'S KIDS STILL CELEBRATE HALLOWEEN Martina McBride has three daughters, Delaney who is 16, Emma who is 13 and 6-year-old Ava and she says, 'All three of my girls still go trick or treating. And they still dress up, and you know what? I think that's great.' While some kids ditch trick-or-treating when they get to be a certain age Martina loves that her girls still all like to go out because she says it beats the alternative of what they could be getting into. But when it comes to costumes the girls all have their own method. 'With the older two, they get together with their friends and sort of dress up as a group, right, and Emma usually ends up making her costume. She's very creative. And the older two kind of do their own thing. I sit down with Ava; we start talking about it, "What do you wanna be for Halloween? What do you wanna be for Halloween?"' When we spoke to Martina, Ava hadn't quite decided what she wanted to dress up as yet, but we're sure whatever she decides on, she and her sisters will all look great. LORETTA LYNN FIGHTING PNEUMONIA AP reports that Loretta Lynn was hospitalized over the weekend with the early stages of pneumonia, according to a representative of the performer. The 76-year-old country music singer was scheduled to perform Saturday at the Performing Arts Center in Ashland, Kentucky, and Sunday in Durham, North Carolina, but the Kentucky centre issued a news release saying she was in the hospital and would be unable to perform. The Kentucky theatre says the show would be rescheduled. Loretta Lynn Enterprises posted a statement on her website Saturday that confirmed the cancellations due to illness. 'Doctors have diagnosed her as the beginning stages pneumonia, and will continue to need rest. Loretta is doing well and is disappointed but feels confident she will be ready for upcoming November dates.'

TALK 'ROUND THE ROW PERSONAL NOTE: President Obama gave all of us the good news that American Troops will be out of Iraq soon after a decade of warfare. He stated, "I'm writing to tell you that all US troops will return home from Iraq by the end of December. After nearly nine years, the American war in Iraq will end. Our servicemen and women will be with their families for the holidays." The war in Iraq came with tremendous cost. More than a million Americans served in Iraq, and nearly 4,500 gave their lives in service to the rest of us. Today, as always, we honor these patriots." Speaking of patriots... Some of country music's finest moments have come when many of our stars put themselves on the line to head to Iraq and other war zones to bring our soldiers a little bit of home in the flesh. I've spoken with returned soldiers and asked them what it means to have entertainers making the effort to do this...all of them made it official, "It means a lot!" MATT GARY VISITS ACM OFFICE The Academy of Country Music welcomed Quarterback Records recording artist Matt Gary to the office while his was in Los Angeles this week. While at the Academy he performed his brand-new single 'Beautiful Life,' along with cuts from his EP, 'I'm Just Sayin'' and signed up for professional ACM membership.
LATEST NEWS CMA AWARDS SHOW ADDS MORE BIG TALENT The lineup for "The 45th Annual CMA Awards" continues to grow with today's announcement that Sara Evans, Martina McBride, Scotty McCreery, Sugarland, and Zac Brown Band will perform on "Country Music's Biggest Night(tm)."
"The 45th Annual CMA Awards," hosted by Brad Paisley and Carrie Underwood, airs live from the Bridgestone Arena in Nashville, Wednesday, Nov. 9 (8:00-11:00 PM/ET) on the ABC Television Network. Previously announced performers include Jason Aldean, The Band Perry, Luke Bryan, Eric Church, Faith Hill, Lady Antebellum, Miranda Lambert, Blake Shelton, Taylor Swift, Thompson Square, Keith Urban, and Chris Young, plus Kenny Chesney and Grace Potter singing their hit collaboration "You and Tequila," Rascal Flatts and Natasha Bedingfield singing their current hit duet "Easy," and co- hosts Paisley and Underwood in their first live televised-performance of their No. 1 song "Remind Me." Premiere Radio Networks is the official radio packager of the CMA Awards. Chevrolet(tm) is a Proud Partner of the CMA Awards and Official Ride of Country Music. American Airlines is the Official Airline of the 2011 CMA Awards. Macy's is the official presenting partner of the CMA Awards Red Carpet. CMA is a Proud Supporter of DRIVE4COPD.
PAISLEY'S THIS IS COUNTRY MUSIC NOMINATED FOR CMA ALBUM OF YEAR Brad Paisley proud that his THIS IS COUNTRY album was nominated for the CMA's to album because he took this album as a particular challenge. "You know, when I went in and cut this album, I really did think to myself, 'How can we make something that represents what I think is country music, in all the different styles and all of the things that we talk about and all of the instrumentation and just whatever it is that if it's called 'country music,' that's what I wanted to do on this record — and that's a big umbrella." SARA EVANS CONNECTED WITH CMA NOMINEE TUNE "A LITTLE BIT STRONGER" Sara says, "The lyric is something that I so related to. It's about going through a rough time in your life and then realizing that you actually can make it, and you can become stronger. And it's the whole idea of 'that which doesn't kill us makes us stronger,' because it is so much where I am now. I've kind of taken the last two years off, if you will, to be a newlywed to Jay [Barker], move to Birmingham, get all set up down there, blend our families, and there was so many changes that were made."
CHESNEY'S SESSION WITH GRACE POTTER HAPPENED FAST "You and Tequila" Kenny Chesney featuring Grace Potter is nominated for Musical Event of the Year, Video of the Year, and Song of the Year (for writers Matraca Berg and Deana Carter). Kenny Chesney says that things happened fast when it came to recording "You and Tequila" with Grace, "On my boat, down in the Virgin Islands, I listen to all kinds of music, and there was this girl…this girl's voice that I just fell in love with, and I didn't know really anything about her that much. I just knew that I really loved her singin' and loved her records. And her name was Grace Potter. And I got in touch with her and played her the song, and literally, three days later, she was in Nashville, and we recorded it."
LAUREN ALAINA BIGGEST DEBUT IN 5 YEARS Lauren Alaina's debut album, Wildflower, is the best-selling female country debut since 2006 and is the highest country album debut this week, debuting at No. 2 on the Billboard Top Country Albums chart and an impressive No. 5 on the Billboard Top 200. With first-week sales of 69,013, Lauren is the youngest female artist to debut this high on the Billboard charts since LeAnn Rimes' debut 15 years ago. Wildflower also becomes the best-selling digital album by a debut country female, selling 19,659 digital albums. "I am just so thankful that I have been given the opportunity to share my music with the world," said Lauren Alaina. "To see my name on the charts alongside country greats that I have admired and looked up to my whole life is absolutely mind-blowing!" RASCAL FLATTS PERFORM AT "WARRIOR OPEN" GOLF EVENT Rascal Flatts participated in the "Bush Center Warrior Open" golf tournament earlier this month in Dallas, Texas, a special 2-day golf event held by former President George W. Bush for soldiers who had been severely wounded during their tours in Iraq and Afghanistan. At President Bush's request, Gary, Jay and Joe Don were the surprise musical performers for the tourney's banquet held on the first evening and the following morning they sang the National Anthem and met with some of the warriors on the golf course. (Note: Golfers, with all four limbs, hands and feet, are awed and amazed by these wounded warrior golfers who hit amazing drives and other shots even though they're missing arms, hands, legs or feet).
RONNIE DUNN SINGING NATION'S SONG FOR FOOTBALL AND BASEBALL Ronnie Dunn returns to his native Texas this weekend, doing double-duty for two cool gigs: singing the national anthem for Saturday's World Series Game 3 and then doing the same for Sunday's Dallas Cowboys game against the St. Louis Rams. "I just got a call from our management offices and said that Nolan Ryan had called and asked if I would do the national anthem for the World Series, so I'm lookin' forward to that. Then I'm gonna stay over the next day, on Sunday, and sing for the Cowboys game. So while I'm down in Texas, I'm takin' care of some bidness and have some fun at the same time." KELLIE PICKLER: Thinking Pink! Kellie Pickler is among the artists performing on the Grand Ole Opry this Saturday, October 22nd, as the Opry joins Women Rock for the Cure's fight against breast cancer with the third annual "Opry Goes Pink" show.

Seminar on "Culture, Tourism and Development"
4th seminar of the UNESCO Chair "Culture, Tourism and Development" and the UNITWIN-UNESCO network "Culture, Tourism and Development"
Université Paris 1 Panthéon Sorbonne / IREST - EIREST / Association des biens français du patrimoine mondial / ICOMOS France / World Heritage Centre / Convention France-UNESCO
This 4th seminar seeks to analyze the various modalities of reconciling interests between visitors and local residents in World Heritage sites. Tourism development has been accompanied and led by the residents in several World Heritage sites. But in other cases it has been conducted without their actual involvement. While in some sites tourism guarantees better ownership of the local economy by the residents, including the most deprived citizens, in other cases tourism is a factor that degrades their living conditions, or even increases their exclusion. What are the conditions of a successful (cultural, economic, social) integration of local populations in tourism development and enhancement at a World Heritage site? While the Budapest Declaration on World Heritage of 2002 adopted by the World Heritage Committee put strong emphasis on the involvement of local communities in the management of World Heritage properties, what are the means for better governance allowing local communities to become stakeholders in the local tourism development? What initiatives, taken by local actors, site managers, local residents and tourists allow the development of tourism projects taking into account the needs and expectations of the different groups? At a time when activities like greeters or ambassadors develop, how can residents and tourists unite their interests with or without the mediation of tourism and heritage stakeholders?
This event will bring together site managers of World Heritage sites in France and other countries for two round table discussions.
The first Round Table will focus on the initiatives led by local communities that aim at involving different stakeholders in tourism development in World Heritage sites. Providing an overview of major challenges and problems faced by the tourism and heritage stakeholders in the management of the relationship between visitors and residents, and discuss appropriate solutions. What are the conditions for good tourism governance taking into account the interests of the residents?
The second Round Table will focus on the initiatives lead by residents and local communities that aim at promoting tourism development and ensuring coexistence between visitors and local populations. What is the reaction of residents on the development of tourism? What actions (individual, partnership, associative) are planned to enable them to better participate - or participate differently in local tourism development? How sustainable are these projects? And what is their added value for visitors?
This one-day event is aimed at different audiences: local stakeholders of the World Heritage sites, experts and managers of heritage and tourism; elected representatives; researchers, academics; postgraduates, students; journalists, etc.

Something tells me that he's just gonna box the whole time... But wait...the media is expecting this rematch to top Bradley/Provodnikov?! I soooo hope that Alvarado doesn't get sucked into another tit-for-tat fight. If so, he needs to take the pointers that his corner was trying to give him the first time around. |

Frequently Asked Questions
For the Nutritional FAQ, click here.
Carvel FAQ
How long is a Carvel ice cream cake good for in my freezer?
Carvel ice cream cakes are made fresh everyday. The quality of all brands of ice cream stored in your home is dependent on the design of your home freezer. Over time, ice crystals form in ice cream which diminish the smooth texture and delicate flavors we all enjoy in ice cream products. While ice crystals are not harmful, we recommend you enjoy your Carvel ice cream cake within 7 days of purchase to ensure the highest quality in our products.
Can I get a Carvel ice cream cake custom made?
Carvel cakes can be custom ordered to your specifications at your local Carvel retail store. Custom flavors cannot be ordered through a supermarket, however many supermarket bakeries allow customers to bring a Carvel ice cream cake to the bakery to have it inscribed or decorated with a popular image or theme. Our branded supermarket freezers are stocked with a variety of our most popular cakes, which are made with layers of vanilla and chocolate ice cream and a layer of our famous chocolate crunchies. Other ice cream flavors can also be found in your local supermarket. For more information on available products, please visit our Carvel Products page.
Are Carvel products kosher?
Yes, all ingredients in Carvel products are kosher. Furthermore, all Carvel products available in supermarkets have been manufactured in a kosher certified facility. If you would like to know if your local Carvel store is kosher certified, please call the store directly and inquire if they hold a current certificate.
How much time do I need to place a special order for a Carvel ice cream cake?
Carvel stores are independently owned and operated, and policies may vary from store to store. Most Carvel stores can have your special order ready within 48 hours. Some stores may require a deposit when the order is placed.
Does Carvel make wedding cakes?
Some Carvel stores make wedding cakes. Inquiries on sizes, styles and prices should be directed to your local Carvel store. Wedding cakes are not available through supermarkets that carry our products.
Where can I purchase Carvel gift certificates?
Gift certificates can be purchased from participating Carvel locations.
Is it possible to tour a Carvel store or facility?
Policies and participation may vary between locations. A tour of your local Carvel shop should be arranged through the store owner or manager. Public tours of our Production Facilities are not available for sanitary and quality reasons.
Where can I purchase your famous Fudgie the Whale®, Hug Me the Bear® or Cookie Puss® cakes?
These cakes spark a fond memory for many people familiar with Carvel products. They are not currently available through supermarkets that carry our products, but many Carvel stores still make these famous character cakes. While these cakes may not be stocked daily, many Carvel stores have the ingredients and materials available to make this cake upon customer request. You may want to call ahead to determine if the product is available or can be made in time for your occasion.
Nutritional Frequently Asked Questions
Aspartame is only found in our no sugar added flavors.
Alcohol in Products
Most of the flavors added to our ice cream mixes contain alcohol. Alcohol is a common carrier for flavors and in the finished product is a very low level. The processing of our ice cream causes most of the alcohol to dissipate but we cannot guarantee that our products do not contain alcohol.
Our products can contain peanuts and tree nuts (almonds, pistachios, walnuts, pecans) as well as egg, wheat, soy, and milk products.
Animal Products
The only animal products are milk and eggs. The mono and diglycerides are derived from soy, not from an animal source.
Corn Syrup
There is corn syrup in our chocolate and vanilla ice cream but it is not high fructose.
Our vanilla ice cream contains egg yolks. The sherbet, chocolate, low fat chocolate, low fat vanilla, and no sugar added/low fat ice creams do not contain eggs but we can not guarantee that these are 100% egg free as they are made on the same equipment as the vanilla ice cream. We suggest you call one of our Carvel stores and ask what type of flavors of ice cream they can substitute for the vanilla ice cream. We have a variety of flavors that can be chosen depending on the store. Pasteurized eggs are also found in our Cupcakes, Brownies, Pound Cake and Lil' Rounder Cookies (Chocolate Chip, Double Chocolate Chip, Sugar)
Most of our ice creams are gluten-free. However, the chocolate crunchies that are found in our ice cream cakes are not gluten-free. If you contact a Carvel retail store nearest you, they will be more then happy to substitute the crunchies for something else, such as fudge.

Build the Hospice
We are supporters of the West Yorkshire Forget Me Not Trust in their quest to build a childrens hospice at Fell Greave Huddersfield, the site belongs to Kirklees Metropolitian Council and at the moment is rented to a farmer who has not utilised the field for approx 30 yrs. The proposal is being held up by 10 people who have lived in the area for approx 2 yrs, although over 1000 people who have lived in the area for most if not all of their lives have already signed a petition in favour of the hospice being built.

Digital Forensics Concentration
I have been in the field of forensic accounting for over 35 years. As the world's financial affairs get more complex it is more important than ever for individuals to be trained in the field of Digital Forensics. The comprehensive curriculum offered by the School of Business Administration at Holy Family University in Digital Forensics is timely and on point. The benefits will provide real life lessons learned by experts currently practicing in the field. A graduate of this program will be uniquely situated to offer employers specific knowledge in a new and emerging field.

Have you ever come home with the stench of smoke clinging to your clothes? Or inhaled a cloud of smoke as a group of smokers passed, causing you to cough and choke? Neither experience is pleasant, and this is why smoking should be banned in public areas.
Smoking can be dangerous not only for the smoker, but also for those around the smoker. Secondhand smoke is the third leading cause of preventable death (after active smoking and alcohol), according to the Manitoba Medical Association. They also say that the smoke contains over 4,000 chemicals, 50 of which are known to be cancer-related. Secondhand smoke has been linked to heart and respiratory disease; lung, breast, cervical, and nasal sinus cancers; strokes and miscarriages. In children, dangers include sudden infant death syndrome, fetal growth impairment, bronchitis, pneumonia, asthma and middle-ear disease. People who smoke subject themselves to deadly diseases, as well as long- and short-term health problems. Non-smokers should not have to live with the consequences of smokers' actions.
Not permitting smoking in public areas may help people refrain from smoking. Some argue that there would be a significant decline in the clientele in bars and clubs, but non-smokers actually outnumber smokers three to one. A ban could actually increase people going out because nonsmokers would be more comfortable.
There may also be a sudden realization of the dangers of smoking. With the state government taking a stand, it may cause people to take another look at the deadly factors of "cancer sticks."
After a recent incident from the widely known Target Market program, people are beginning to feel that anti-tobacco efforts are losing their focus. At a local event a couple years ago, a punk band hired by the anti-drug campaign played songs that included positive images of cigarettes and other drugs in their lyrics. This is not the most efficient way to use money set aside for anti-drug programs. Instead, this money could be used to enforce the laws that should be passed to ban smoking in public places.
Sometimes those you think would be against the idea of making smoking illegal actually agree with it. Patrick Reynolds, heir to the tobacco empire, rejected becoming president of his family's tobacco company because it was proven to have caused both his father's and his older brother's deaths. Now, he runs a campaign to stop people from smoking. In his presentation, he states that a smoker will spend about $1,400 a year for one pack a day. Reynolds also says that the more secondhand smoke you inhale, the more susceptible you are to health problems. People working in casinos, for example, are up to eight times as likely to be in danger of the effects of secondhand smoke. Banning smoking in public places can prevent death and illness.
Some say that no matter what, nothing will reduce or stop cigarette smoking altogether. The laws banning smoking might convince some to quit and create a safer environment for everyone else. Also, some argue that there isn't money to carry this out. The money that goes into programs such as Target Market and Big Tobacco will be cut and the difference will go toward law enforcement.
Smoking is a dangerous habit that not only affects the smoker, but those around him or her. Banning the smoking in public will keep non-smokers safer. People who smoke subject themselves to deadly diseases by choice. Why should non-smokers be forced to be around it?

The eruption shown was unusual in that it was so widespread and vesiculopustular. Occasionally, this unimportant eruption must be differentiated from more serious infectious processes, such as neonatal herpes simplex. Tzanck smear of a pustule of erythema toxicum neonatorum will reveal numerous eosinophils but no multinucleated giant cells or bacteria. Occasionally, peripheral eosinophilia is also present. The cause of this condition is not known, and it resolves spontaneously within 10 days. No treatment is required.

Amarillo by morning
Up from San Antone
Everything that I've got
Is just what I've got on
When that sun is high in that Texas sky
I'll be bucking it to county fair
Amarillo by morning
Amarillo I'll be there
They took my saddle in Houston
Broke my leg in Sante Fe
Lost my wife and a girlfriend
Somewhere along the way
Well, I'll be looking for eight when they pull that gate
And I'm hoping that judge ain't blind
Amarillo by morning
Amarillo's on my mind
Amarillo by morning
Up from San Antone
And everything that I've got
Is just what I've got on
I ain't got a dime but what I've got is mine
I ain't rich but Lord, I'm free
Amarillo by morning
Amarillo's where I'll be
Amarillo by morning
Amarillo's where I'll be
