Parking lot was easy to find. Easy in and out.
Picked because it is a quicker escape when leaving Indy and heading back west. Could use traffic control to exit and get back on Kentucky ave.
easy in easy out a little walk to Lucas Oil but we all need that
Easy to locate, easy to get out. Excellent for anyone traveling from hwy 37 (less than 2 hours from Evansville via I69). Will use next time.
The location was easy to get to. It was a lot cheaper than by the stadium. It was $1 more on the website than in person though. I wish the owners of the parking lots, knowing that there was going to be a playoff game on Saturday, would have better cleared the parking lots of snow.
lot needed plowed. it had a lot of snow to walk through.
This is a surface level gravel parking lot. The lot is lighted and police patrolled. White River is directly across the street. EZ Park signs are located at the entrance of parking lot. Tailgating is encouraged!!
This location is a commercial parking lot.
Nearby destinations: The Crane Bay Event Center and Concert Venue, Colts Parking, Staybridge Suites Indianapolis Downtown-Conv Ctr.
This parking lot is located on the southeast corner of Kentucky Ave and McCarty St, west of the Indiana Department of Adminstration building. Traveling west on McCarty St, turn left to enter the lot.

'Vampire Diaries' season finale: Ian Somerhalder talks Damon's love for Elena, cliffhangers
'Vampire Diaries': Ian Somerhalder on Damon drowning in women and booze, his 'Lost' plans
Zap2it's 'Vampire Diaries' recaps
Damon is not bad, just misunderstood & lonely. Katheine was not nice, she is evil. She wanted her two boy toys for eternity. I don't believe for one second she was in love with either of the brothers. Damon finds himself in love with Elena. She brings out his humanity, which is dangerous for him. If it comes down to choosing between Elena and Katherine, Damon will choose Elena, God help Katherine if she tries to hurt Elena because Damon is dangerous and deadly. He will not let one hair on Elena's head be harmed.
Great interview. Enjoyed it a lot.
I feel for Ian Somerhalder. Paul Wesley is a weaker actor, so the writers/producers have to relay more on his character.
Fantastic interview. This is the Zap2It I'd like to continue to see. Screw all that gossip BS. Interviews like this are what make a website legitimate in the sea of crap circulating on the internet. Keep up this great work!
Paul Wesley is not a weak actor he is actually damn good at what he does.
The show is well cast. I would not bother watching the show if they ever decided to change or kill off any of the main characters.
Great interview......Ian does a great Damon. I am very impressed as I am a huge Damon fan from the book. When I heard the show was being developed all I thought was, please don't screw Damon up, please don't screw Damon up!! my fears have been laid to rest because Ian does an awesome job!!!
I agree with GEORGIA PEACH ....also Ian does a great Damon.
I am a huge fan of Damon from the book and I was so scared that Damon's chracter would be screwed up by bad acting....thankfully all my fears were laid to rest because Ian does an awesome job!!!
I second JettaJameson. Also, Paul Wesley is a very good actor, probably even better than Ian S. But i have been impressed that Ian is getting better and better as this show goes on. he's really started to wiggle nicely into a great fit for this character.
I agree with you about Damon choosing Elena over Katherine. When he kissed Katherine on Elena's porch, he thought he was kissing Elena...having said that, let's not forget how wrapped up in Katherine Damon has been ALL season long. He may be pissed at her, but that doesn't mean all of those feelings that he has had for 160 plus years just dissapeared. I can't wait to see Katherine's reaction to both of the Salvatore brothers being in love with Elena...you are right. God help her ;)
The season finale was incredible. I didn't see the Katherine moment coming at all. The showed played it perfectly.
@Ryan I disagree. I knew it was Katherine as soon as she reciprocated Damon's kiss. That would've been way OOC for Elena to not at least pull away after a couple of seconds. But it was an awesome fin.

No more hanging out cause we're on a different track"

(February 2012) At first glance the NTSB report seemed like a typical "non-instrument-rated pilot takes off into IMC conditions" accident. The pilot had accumulated close to 400 hours during the five years since he had earned his private pilot certificate, mostly in the accident airplane. He was eager to depart on a trip that he had been planning for six months, but the weather would not cooperate. Two days in a row the pilot had not been able to depart due to low stratus clouds that blanketed the New Jersey area. Finally, on the third day after his planned date of departure, the forecast held a glimmer of hope. Low stratus clouds still prevailed throughout the area, and the 300-foot overcast ceiling was below the published minimums for an instrument approach into the airport, but conditions were forecast to gradually improve later in the day.
The pilot was not alone in his desire to depart. The NTSB report states that several other pilots, including some who were instrument-rated, were either in the airport office or elsewhere on the airport waiting for the conditions to improve so they could depart. Shortly after 10 a.m., witnesses observed the pilot and his passenger fueling his airplane. At that point there was still a solid overcast at 200 to 300 feet, with no holes and no evidence of the sun starting to break through the overcast. Everyone assumed the pilot would return the airplane to the hangar after it had been fueled. However, a few minutes later the witnesses saw the airplane take off and quickly climb into the overcast. People in the maintenance hangar with a radio tuned to the local approach control frequency heard the pilot request traffic advisories from the controller.
For close to 10 minutes, people on or near the airport heard and occasionally saw the airplane flying in the vicinity of the airport, and reported that it sounded like the airplane was continually changing speed and direction. One individual who lived close to the airport was questioning the judgment of a pilot who would do aerobatics in the clouds, and he then sent his daughter into their house for safety when he observed the airplane fly over their neighbor's house at a very low altitude. Eventually people in the area heard a loud thump and ran toward the sound to find the airplane wreckage and two bodies in the woods behind their homes.
Typically that is all we learn about an accident, but in this case, both the pilot's wife and son had flown with him on multiple occasions. His wife told the NTSB that her husband "would only fly in the clouds if he could get out of the clouds immediately." She said he "sometimes flew through clouds that were 1,000 to 2,000 feet thick" but that "he never kept me in the clouds for more than two minutes." She also stated that the autopilot was functional, but that he rarely used it, and that he would hand-fly the airplane through the clouds. She also said she was "confused why he would have trouble in the clouds."
I realized that this accident provides an amazing insight into the progression that is likely typical for many accidents that result from pilots breaking the rules and/or flying beyond their abilities. Perhaps his first experience of flying through a cloud layer was during one of his flying lessons, with his instructor providing an unfortunate example of how to not let a few clouds keep him from accomplishing the flight. Or maybe it happened later as a licensed private pilot, when he was ready to take off, but there was a thin layer of clouds between the ground and the blue sky above, and the pilot easily popped through the cloud layer.
On a subsequent flight the pilot was faced with a little bit thicker cloud layer, with no holes that clearly showed the thickness of the layer. However, since he was able to handle the previous situation with no problem, he went ahead and flew through this slightly thicker cloud layer. Step by step he progressed down this slippery slope until he was taking off when he knew he would have to fly for several minutes through thousands of feet of clouds, and would even request flight following from ATC to try to avoid colliding with an airplane on an instrument clearance. He also managed to convince his wife that this was perfectly safe.

While this is usually served as a tapa, it is too good not to eat as a main course. After trying the ones that were posted here on Zaar, I found myself still searching for the gambas we had in Barcelona. Finally I found the recipe with the flavor and creaminess of the dish we fell in love with in Spain! The same dish can be made with squid, cut into rings, or scallops. Serve with lots of warm crusty bread to sop up the sauce…. You will not want to waste a drop! (Make sure you are "warming" the olive oil and the butter, not cooking it off..... cause you'll want every last bit of it for the sauce)

OK, yes, companies pay a little something to be Sponsored Deals. But we don't allow just any old crap in this section. Sponsored Deals are proposed to us by other retailers, manufacturers, and even other daily deal sites. If we find the deal compelling enough that our members will appreciate us bringing it to their attention, we'll feature it here. Believe it or not, we have a reputation to uphold. If your store would like to be considered for this space, please contact us for details. But if your deal is lame, or sketchy, no amount of money will let you buy your way in.
Community Deals
It's whatever you want it to be.
Pretty much, anyway. This is where you find the deals that wooters like you have ferreted out and brought to light. We're thinking it'll turn into a massive database of discounted products from around the Web, constantly expanding to absorb the newest deals from the very moment their prices are slashed, with each deal immediately rated by hordes of savvy voters to spotlight the very greatest deals in the world today. Hey, we can dream, right?
We use a fancy algorithm to determine which deals are catching the most buzz – they're under the Popular tab, which is the default view of this section. You can look for the most popular deals today, this week, or this month. The Fresh tab features the most recently submitted deals, so that's where to look for deals that everybody else doesn't know about yet. And the Search bar does what a Search bar does, only, uh, much wootier! Yeah! Right on!
Ask The Community
They probably won't bite.
Organic bullets? Vegetarian haggis? Cheap tickets to Antarctica? The best high-performance sweatsocks for under $100? If you're looking for a deal that doesn't appear to show up in our Community Deals section, throw the question to your fellow cheapskates. Or answer a question for one of your fellow cheapskates. Or vote for your favorite questions, or your favorite answers, or… maybe we should call this section "Ask, Answer, Comment On, And Vote In The Community", but that won't fit on the page.

I voted, but I don't really have a good sense of wOBA as a raw number yet, so I'm not sure what is good/bad/average.
2 shawndgoldman says:
@ josh:
It's scaled to OBP. So if you can think on those scales, you can think on wOBA scales.
3 gaius marius says:
here's the 23-and-unders 100+ PA for the last five seasons sorted by wOBA.
i'm going to guess Rizzo to come in around the average of this group (even though his earlier cuppa is at the bottom).
Some of you people are nuts. .400 or higher? I'd be thrilled if he's that good in a few years, but right now? Aramis Ramirez was a damn good hitter and he never went over .400. And that was in 2004 when there was a lot more offense. Among Cubs players with at least 300 PA in a season only Derrek Lee (2005, 2009) and Sammy Sosa (2000, 2001, 2002) have hit for a .400 wOBA or higher since 2000. Sosa did it in 1998 and 1999 also. You have to go back to 1993 to find a non-Sosa or non-Lee Cub to hit .400 or higher with only 300 PA in a season (Rick Wilkins hit exactly .400). In 1990 Ryne Sandberg hit .400. Davey Lopes hit .400 in 1985. That's it since 1980. You have this list of Cubs hitters with 300 PA or more who hit greater than .400 in a season.
Sammy Sosa did it 5 times
Derrek Lee did it twice
That's it. Since 1980.Sandberg, Lopes and Wilkins each hit .400.
I can understand being excited, but .400 wOBA excited?
@ gaius marius:
I went with .320-.329 and based on that list perhaps I was a little optimistic. Anything over .330 has to be considered wildly successful. Hopefully the expectations come down like they did for Castro. Some Cubs fans though he was going to have a wOBA of .360 or so right off the bat. -
Going back to 2001 and increasing it to 250 PA, you get this list: http://www.fangraphs.com/leaders.aspx?pos=1b&stats=bat&lg=all&qual=250&type=8&season=2012&month=0&season1=2001&ind=0&team=0&rost=0&age=14,23&players=0
Nobody over .400. Highest was James Loney at .386 and then Prince Fielder at .383.
Basically, some people are expecting Rizzo to be Frank Thomas: http://www.fangraphs.com/leaders.aspx?pos=1b&stats=bat&lg=all&qual=250&type=8&season=2012&month=0&season1=1980&ind=0&team=0&rost=0&age=14,23&players=0

@ mb21:
MB: did you ask me for my opinion, or did you just wanted to say what you wanted to say and didn't really care if I would disagree with your position? Just tell me that you don't care about my opinion then, so I won't bother to answer you in the future. -
I guessed .330 to .339 because I figured the power would offset some of the on-base issues.
11 SVB says:
I guessed .340-.349 because I figure/hope he'll be better than Chris Davis and at least as good as Ike Davis. I figure that's as good of a way to guess as regression…
@ WaLi22:
Of course I care about your opinion. That's why I asked the question. Saying those who are most optimistic are nuts doesn't mean I don't value the input. If someone had said this offseason that I'm nuts as far as my optimism for Brett Jackson I'd have agreed. -

Dammit, they are so healthy, like almonds and walnuts are good for you and stuff. Well, at least no one has ever accused me of being sane.
14 Doogolas says:
I said .400 as a joke. I assumed that everyone would have answered in a silly fashion based on all the Rizzo jokes lately. More logically probably like .335 would be my guess.

PASADENA, Calif. (AP) — NBC executives said Sunday they are conscious about the amount of violence they air in the wake of real-life tragedies like the Connecticut school shooting, but have made no changes in what has gone on the air or what is planned.
NBC isn't a ''shoot-'em-up'' network, said network entertainment President Jennifer Salke.
The level of violence on television, in movies and video games has been looked at as a contributing factor — along with the availability of guns and a lack of mental health services — in incidents such as the Dec. 14 attack in a Newtown, Conn., school where 20 first-graders and six educators were killed.
Like many in Hollywood, NBC questioned a link between what is put on the air and what is happening in society.
''It weighs on all of us,'' said NBC Entertainment Chairman Robert Greenblatt. ''Most of the people at this network have children and really care about the shows that we're putting out there. It's always something that's been on our mind but this brought it to the forefront.''
NBC hasn't needed to take any tangible steps like minimizing violence in its programming or deemphasizing guns, Salke said, because NBC didn't have much violence on the air. It might be different ''if we were the 'shoot-'em-up' network, she said.
She didn't name such a network, but said violence might be an issue on a network that airs many crime procedural shows. That's a staple of CBS' lineup. Greenblatt, who was head of Showtime when the ''Dexter'' series about a serial killer was developed, said CBS' ''Criminal Minds'' is ''worse than 'Dexter' ever was.''
Within an hour after both executives spoke, NBC showed reporters at a news conference highlights of its show ''Revolution'' that included a swordfight, a standoff between two men with guns, a bloodied man, a building blown up with a flying body and a gunfight.
Later clips of the upcoming series ''Deception'' featured several shots of a bloodied, dead body.
NBC also is developing a drama, ''Hannibal,'' based on one of fiction's most indelible serial killers, Hannibal Lecter. An airtime for the show hasn't been scheduled, but it could come this spring or summer.
Salke said there is more violence in Fox's upcoming drama ''The Following,'' also about a serial killer, than there will be in ''Hannibal.'' Much of the violence in the upcoming NBC show, created by former ''Heroes'' producer Bryan Fuller, is implied and not gratuitous.
''We respect the talent and like what he is doing, so we are standing behind him,'' Salke said. She said there's been a spate of programs about creepy killers because they've been such indelible characters.
Greenblatt said he wasn't trying to be glib, but one of the best tonics for people upset about real-life violence is to watch an episode of NBC's ''Parenthood.'' He said it's a great example of a family that loves each other and grapples with many issues.
''Ultimately, I think you feel good at the end of the day,'' he said.

Aaron's Picks For The Championship Games
By packeraaron on Jan 22, 2010 with 14 Comments
- Minnesota Vikings at New Orleans Saints
Fans, pundits and even honest to goodness football people keep talking about how dominant the Viking defensive front four looked against the Cowboys last week and expect a repeat performance this Sunday down in the Big Easy.
It ain't gonna happen.
Even if defensive end Ray Edwards was at full strength, which he isn't, Drew Brees and company will tear apart the Viking defense. The Vikings were able to rely on the noise in the Metrodome and the loss of Flozell Adams to dismantle the Cowboys offensive line and get to Romo using only four guys. This just won't be happening down in New Orleans. The Vikings will have to blitz to get pressure on Brees, and when they do, Payton and Brees will make them pay.
On the flip side, Brett Favre and the Vikings offense will be able to move the ball against the Saints, especially if Childress and Favre don't fall in love with their passing attack. A healthy dose of Adrian Peterson and Chester Taylor could pound the porous Saints rushing defense into oblivion. But I just don't see Favre putting his toys away, and sooner or later the environment, the noise and the pressure will get to Favre and the Vikings.
Saints: 31
Vikings: 17
- New York Jets vs Indianapolis Colts
Dallas Clark. That's it. That's your ball game.
The Jets want to pound the ball, limit Manning's opportunities and shorten the game as much as possible. The problem is, you can make the game as short as Peter Dinklage – Manning has shown he will still find a way to put up the points his team needs. Does anyone remember the Monday nighter against the Dolphins? The Phins played keep-away all night. It didn't matter.
Now, the Jets are not the Dolphins. They have the defense to slow the point machine that is Peyton Manning down. More importantly, they have Darrell Revis to match up on Reggie Wayne. After that, it's a solid if unspectacular group of wide receivers.
And then there's the tight end.
Dallas Clark is a match up problem for any team, but against a team that likes to blitz as much as the Jets he's a macthup nightmare. Just when you think you've got the quarterback, he tosses a short pass to Clark for a huge gain where all the blitzers have just come from.
Yes, I'm simplifying. And yes, you know you've seen it a hundred times from Manning and Clark.
I like the Jets' chances. But in the end, even if this turns out to be the low-scoring, bruising affair the Jets want it to be, Manning, as he has so many times before, will make the play that needs to be made at the end to win the game.
Colts: 20
Jets: 13

[...] out my picks over on The Other [...]
I'm holding you to this one ANag!
Aaron – One thing that many people are overlooking – the football gods have yet to speak about #4′s defection to an arch-rival. It's about time they are heard.
Good picks. I really like the way you reason things out. It's a skill I hope I can learn to apply to my Pack-blogging.
It's intersting to see you post here. I always thought this was always sort of Holly's domain. I guess I'll always be the new guy.
I hope you're right about these picks.
I've only been around since about a quarter of the way through the season, so I wouldn't know.
Anyway, as long as the Vikings lose, I don't care who else wins.
Go Pack Go!
I posted my picks in response to Holly's postg. Basically I think the Vikes D is just too banged up to slow down the Saints. I also think the Vikings were a pretty pedestrian road team this season, and that just won't cut it in the Dome.
Also- Colts are not Chargers, and are not coached by Norv Turner. They will bury the Jets. Blow out city.
Vikes: If the OL gives Favre time the Saints will have their hands full. Favre threw a total 7 TDs and 0 INT against a MVP Woodson led secondary this season while the Saints are 25th in yardage allowed (even w/ Sharper). But A Peterson has only averaged 83 yrds per game (due to stagnate last half of season) … he has to do better Sunday if they are to keep the passing game open. Obviously the Vikes defense is the big question mark: w/o DL pressure on Breese (similar to Dallas) they are in serious trouble. Vikes secondary is their weakest spot and Breese will attempt to exploit it (Vikes have to at least check the receivers at the line to give time to the D front). Loss of Harvin or Edwards will be devastating if they don't play.
Saints – Reggie Bush is alive and well and Breese has a host of targets and fewer injuries. If Breese gets 2-3 good secs. in the pocket it's a done deal (particularly if they get a run game going). Vikes beat Dallas because Romo was left running for his life and Dallas was always behind. Without some kind of repeat the Vikes will not be able to keep up in the scoring competition. Vikes won last year in superdome with Frerotte in week 5 (but again, defense was key, e.g. Wenfield had big plays).
Favre factor: If he is on, anything is possible … this year, he has been very on.
Vikes are definitely the underdog (particularly w/ their road record) but it could easily go either way depending on who shows up … too close to call IMO.
—- -
Jets: Indy has minimum run game so the Jets know Manning is going to pass. Jets are a physical team but Manning is a 4 time MVP for a reason. Jets salvation lies with strong show in the secondary and the pass rush – if they can get to Peyton they have their chance to win. Equal pressure will be on the Jets run game (and rookie Sanchez has to pretend it's just another game and not make mistakes). Jets have every reason to go all out and appear on fire. I will go out on a wild, wild limb:
Jets 24 – Colts 21
A point of irony – whether Favre had stayed with the Jets or gone to the Vikes, either way, he ends up in another NFC championship game! Who'd a thunk it.
— -
Please God, make Favre lose and look terrible doing it. He deserves to fail, and the Packer fans who loved him for years have paid in blood this year with his sketchy sense of honor.
Greenbaypackerbob: Nice one. I can't believe no one noticed that before.
By the way, how does this trackback thing work. I linked to this post on my blog. Wouldn't that show up here? Just curious……
Go Pack Go!
—–Brent slurper bobby says—–
"A point of irony – whether Favre had stayed with the Jets or gone to the Vikes, either way, he ends up in another NFC championship game! Who'd a thunk it."
NO, S-O-R-R-Y "bobby",
If Brent was with the Jets he would be in the "AFC" championship game.
I've read your posts (think I've dropped a few points on the intellect meter in the process), so I'm not surprised at this admission of ignorance.
I FORGIVE you Bobbingham Lincoln.
Keep researching bobby, and maybe in 5-8 years you will bring something to the table.
Good luck guy!
Fitz – you are kidding, an AFC game ? … WOW, we are all in awe of your clarification about my statement…. of course, everyone else knew exactly what I was saying … but they were just not so ate up with the fact that Favre is still in the game that they are reduced to loser talk. But then again, they are not losers like yourself.
Maybe you should try telling yourself… 'yes, even I can be a winner like Favre'? (lol)

It takes a village, right? More specifically, it takes a community that is willing to speak out. We are often worried about being nosy or, at the very least, being thought of as nosy by our neighbors. Sometimes, it's OK to wonder if everything around us is well and safe. We don't want to be overly protective and to teach our children to see monsters everywhere; but we have an opportunity here to double-check that we are providing a safe environment for our children. We protect them in our homes through the products we choose, the media they are exposed to, or the people they learn to trust. It's high time we extended the perimeter of safety past the walls of our homes and into our communities.
This week, we selected information that can help us all deal with the heart-rending problems of missing kids. We started with David Finkelhor's five pervasive myths about child abductions, and we linked to a Factsheet on Online Sexual Predators: these put the issues into perspective and help us to approach the subject without the emotive and alarmist tone that characterizes many media reports. We highlighted the critical importance of not spreading misinformation, with this report on Fake Amber Alerts on Facebook. We also had plenty of positive news, with this piece on Embracing the Good News on Children's Safety and another on 5 Missing Children Who Made It Home.
Thank you for joining us this week in keeping children and our communities first and foremost in our hearts.

Kenshiro1 says: One of the best (if not THE best) computer role-playing games in existence. Nothing really comes close, except maybe Knights of the Old Republic.
Kenshiro1 says: I wish more current action/adventure games had this title's intensity, humor, and quality of music.
Kenshiro1 says: I remember spending literally days just playing with the game's character and game generator. This is really an underrated classic.
Treat your GOGmix as your child - name it! ;)
Coming up with a cool and descriptive title should be your first priority. Being original is in your best interest - bet you wanna get lots of nice votes, right? Go all crazy if you want, but be sure to keep it civil!
So, what are the ingredients?
Pick a game that belongs in your GOGmix from the list, or find it by typing something in the text field. Relevance is key here - Earthworm Jim doesn't quite fit the "Sexiest heroines of all time" bill now, does it?
Justify your choice... Or not!
OK, so it's not required, but now that you went through the trouble of adding a game, telling everyone why you did it would be a nice finishing touch. After you're done here, add another game, rinse, repeat.

Extra Butter x Reebok Pump OXT 'Sheriff Ahchoo' – Release Reminder
March 23rd, 2012 by John Kim | 14 comments
There are benefits to a piece of news being kept under tight wraps. Although that isn't the case with most sneaker releases these days, the crew at Extra Butter treated their last two collaborations with Reebok like a movie director treats an upcoming blockbuster movie, controlling the flow of public information on their own and creating just the right amount of buzz before the release of the shoe. Continuing with the 'Ahchoo' theme from the Pump AXT, Extra Butter moves on to another Pump classic – its OXT cousin – using the nature-driven colors from Sheriff Ahchoo's garments with the pheasant feather detailing on the upper (each shoe essentially has its own unique pattern). So not only is EB putting out a dope shoe, they're singlehandedly increasing the google-search count of 'Reebok Pump OXT' and the movie rentals/streams of Robin Hood: Men In Tights – two noted classics that are getting the attention they deserve. Take a 'Time Out' and get pumped about the release of the Extra Butter's second no-doubter in a span of three months by hitting up their in-store release at midnight, or cop online tomorrow at 11:00 AM from the Extra Butter online store. Limited edition snapbacks and crewnecks will also be available for purchase either alone or as a bundle with the shoes.

Born in Russia in 1982, Anna Chapman was living in New York City when she made headlines in June 2010. Along with nine others, she was arrested on suspicion of working as a spy for the Russian government. Chapman plead guilty, and was deported back to Russia in July 2010, in the biggest spy swap deal since 1986. Her good looks made Chapman the focus of the media spotlight, and upon returning to Russia she posed for a men's magazine and hosted a TV show.
Born Anya Kushchenko on February 23, 1982, in Volgograd, Russia. In June 2010, Anna Chapman made headlines for her role in a Russian spy ring. She and nine others were arrested on conspiracy charges in the United States. With her good looks, flirtatious nature, and sexy clothes, Chapman soon became an international sensation as a "Femme Fatale" of the spy world.
Espionage may have been a family business. Vasily Kushchenko, Chapman's father, worked as a Russian diplomat and, according to one report, may also served as a spy. Chapman, however, started out in a different field, studying economics at Moscow University. During a holiday trip to London, she met Alex Chapman. The pair married in 2002 and spent time living in Russia and England. While in England, Chapman worked for a number of companies, including Barclay's Bank. She and her husband divorced in 2006.
Chapman then returned to Russia for a time before moving to the United States. She soon ingratiated herself into New York City's business and nightclub circles. Chapman ran her own real estate company, PropertyFinder Ltd., in Manhattan. In the evenings, she frequented the city's hottest restaurants and clubs. These activities served as her cover as she reportedly worked on her secret mission. She and the other Russian operatives were part of a network focused on gathering sensitive information. The spies were meant to develop "ties in policymaking circles" and send reports back to Russia, according to court documents.
It is unclear, however, what secrets Chapman had been able to uncover. In June 2010, she was arrested shortly after a meeting with a FBI agent who pretended to be a Russian official. Some friends of Chapman were surprised by the news, calling the red-haired spy "sweet." Others called her a seductress. Model Dennis Hirdt told Details magazine said that Chapman was "an expert at using her femininity to get information."
Chapman and her fellow spies only stayed in custody for a brief period, however. On July 8, 2010, they were sent back to Russia in a spy exchange deal between the United States and Russia. Her fellow Russians welcomed Chapman home, and she even received a medal for her work from the government. She was later appointed to a position within the Young Guard of the United Russia party and has visited with the party's leader and the country's prime minister Vladimir Putin.
While most of the other spies were granted new identities and new lives, Chapman has continued to build on her international notoriety. Playing up her sexy spy image, Chapman posed in lingerie on the cover of the Russian edition of Maxim magazine that October.

WEDNESDAY, Oct. 19 (HealthDay News) -- The listeria outbreak traced to cantaloupes produced at a Colorado farm that has been blamed for 25 deaths so far seems to have been caused by unsanitary conditions at the farm, U.S. officials said Wednesday.
Inspections on Sept. 22 and 23 by federal and state authorities at the Jensen Farms packing facility in Granada found "unsanitary conditions where the [fruit] may have become adulterated," Sherri McGarry, senior advisor at the U.S. Food and Drug Administration's CORE Network, said during a news conference.
Inspectors said the layout of the farm's packing facility allowed water to pool on the floor, making it hard to clean the floor and the equipment used to pack the melons -- and that could have served as a conduit for the germ to latch onto the fruit.
In addition, Jensen Farms did not cool its cantaloupes before placing them in cold storage, which may have caused condensation promoting the growth of listeria, McGarry said.
"We have no reason to believe, at this time, that these practices are indicative of practices throughout the industry," she said.
The plant, which was registered with the FDA in 2010, had never been inspected and was not due to be inspected for five to seven years, she added.
"The tragic deaths and illness from this outbreak have again demonstrated the need to continually address and improve food-safety practices," U.S. Food and Drug Administration Commissioner Dr. Margaret Hamburg said at the news conference.
The Associated Press said messages left for the farm's owners were not immediately returned.
The health toll from the listeria outbreak now stands at 123 people sickened across 26 states, the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention reported late Tuesday.
The agency said that even though the cantaloupes in question were recalled in mid-September, more cases might still emerge since Listeria monocytogenes infection has a long lag time between diagnosis and laboratory confirmation "and also because up to two months can elapse between eating contaminated food and developing listerosis."
The listeriosis-linked deaths have occurred in Colorado (6), Indiana (1), Kansas (2), Louisiana (2), Maryland (1), Missouri (1), Nebraska (1), New Mexico (5), New York (2), Oklahoma (1), Texas (2) and Wyoming (1). The people who have died ranged in age from 48 to 96, the CDC said.
One pregnant woman who contracted the illness had a miscarriage, the CDC said.
Pennsylvania has reported its first case of infection, the agency said Tuesday.
On Sept. 14, the agency announced that Jensen Farms had voluntarily recalled its Rocky Ford-brand cantaloupes and the produce was "now off store shelves." Consumers -- especially older adults, people with weakened immune systems and pregnant women -- should discard this brand of cantaloupe if it is in their refrigerator, the agency said. Other brands of cantaloupe are safe to consume, however.
At a recent news conference, CDC Director Dr. Thomas R. Frieden called the cantaloupe-linked outbreak "the deadliest outbreak of a foodborne disease that we've identified in more than a decade."
Unlike other bacteria, listeria can flourish in colder temperatures. So, "if you've got a contaminated cantaloupe in your refrigerator, the listeria will continue to grow," Frieden said. "That's one of the reasons why we may see continued cases from cantaloupe already in people's refrigerators in the days and weeks ahead."
Although listeria tends to infect fewer people, it is typically deadlier than other foodborne germs and disproportionately affects the elderly, newborns, pregnant women and anyone with a weakened immune system. People can develop meningitis from the organism, but many people only experience milder diarrhea.
According to the CDC, some 1,600 cases are reported annually in the United States, resulting in 260 deaths.
The bacterium tends to grow in soil and water. But animals can also carry the germ and pass it on to humans through meats, dairy products and other foods of animal origins. Most listeria outbreaks are from animal products, not produce, the CDC said.

Working on a European Antenna
An engineer is working on the integration of a European antenna. This picture was taken in June 2010 at the ALMA Operations Support Facility (OSF), located at 2900 m altitude on the road to the 5000-metre-high Chajnantor plateau. ALMA, the Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Array, is the largest astronomical project in existence and is a truly global partnership of Europe, North
America and East Asia in cooperation with the Republic of Chile. The ALMA array will initially be composed of 66 antennas, provided by the different partners. ESO, the European partner in ALMA, has ordered 25 12-metre antennas, with an option for an additional seven, from the AEM Consortium.

Exclusive:Sports Analysis from John LongshoreCBS 8 Sports Analyst John Longshore was on CBS 8 News at 6:00 to talk about Alabama's move to the top spot in the football polls and about how Auburn's upcoming game at Mississippi State is a must-win for head coach Gene Chizik. Longshore says the reason Bama was able to become the consensus #1 team in the polls is simple. He says beating a high-quality opponent like Michigan, which had been ranked #8, made all the difference. As for Auburn, he says Chizik will be on the hot seat with a loss at Mississippi State following the season-opening loss to Clemson. Longshore says MSU has come close to beating Auburn in the past. But he says the Bulldogs head coach Dan Mullen is also facing a must-win game, so the stakes are high for both coaches. |
