A Cushing man is dead and two others injured after a late night wreck in Payne County, just outside Cushing.
Oklahoma Highway Patrol troopers report that Kenneth A. Gomez died in a single-vehicle crash about 11 p.m. Monday on Norfolk Road just south of 9th Street.
Gomez was driving a 2004 Chevrolet pickup southbound on 9th Street when the truck ran off the road. The Chevy went into a broadslide, hitting a fence, a gate and a utility pole, according to a trooper's report. When the truck hit the pole it went airborne, striking a second utility pole and landing on its top.
The trooper says Gomez, 22, was intoxicated at the time of the wreck.
Two passengers, 21-year-old Hayden A. Boyles and 18-year-old Chance D. Gray, both of Cushing, were treated and released at the Cushing hospital for their injuries.
The men were not wearing seatbelts, according to the collision report. The cause of the fatality wreck is listed as driving under the influence.

Movie Summary | Infoplease.comA Self-Made Hero (Un heros tres discret)
Description: Irony abounds in this French comedy that tells the tale of an unsophisticated, rather dim-bulbed country lad who follows the advice of a former French freedom fighter and tries to change himself into a hero of the recently ended French Resistance. Poor Albert is no stranger to deceit. For his first 12-years, his mother led him to believe that his father was a war hero. He is devastated to learn that his father really died of alcoholism. During the war, Albert does all he can to avoid fighting for the Resistance, even though the Nazis control his village. He marries and moves in with his wife's family, innocent of the fact that the whole time he is there, they are concealing downed British fliers. The night their town is freed, Albert leaves for Paris where he meets Dionnet, The Captain, a bona-fide Resistance hero. It is he, who teaches Albert how to successfully change his identity. After much practice and memorization, Albert finally has a new identity and goes to work as a secretary for Mr. Jo, a former double agent. Albert stays in a boarding house, where a resident prostitute teaches him about lovemaking. Meanwhile, Albert becomes recognized as a courageous patriot, a role he manages to sustain only a little while before it all falls apart and the painful truth is finally revealed.~ Sandra Brennan, All Movie Guide Movie summaries and listings powered by Cinema-Source Warning: fsockopen(): php_network_getaddresses: getaddrinfo failed: Name or service not known in /site/html/include/amazon.php on line 71 Warning: fsockopen(): unable to connect to :3128 (php_network_getaddresses: getaddrinfo failed: Name or service not known) in /site/html/include/amazon.php on line 71

Campaigns, trash talk and the truth.
During the race for the 2012 MLS Rookie of the Year award there has been a lot of chatter. Who ranks where and what is valued more from fresh-faced rookies - Goals? Assists? Saves? Defense?
Adapting to MLS can be a challenge. It's a long season fraught with ups and downs, the speed of play is accelerated, often as a central defender you are up against a striker with class skills and experience to match.
For Chicago Fire defender Austin Berry it isn't about the rankings or the hoopla, it's about putting in the work needed to help the team.
Berry has made his way onto a Life cereal box.
While there has been PR to support the rookie defender who has started 27 matches for a 17-11-5 Fire team that has only allowed 40 goals in 2012.
The real truth of the matter has been Berry's play. Through his efforts alone, Berry has cut through the clutter, letting his game speak for itself…
Austin #Berry4ROY: THE TRUTH
Yesterday, I began the ambitious 11-part Playoff History series with a bang, taking a look back on the club's magical run to the 1998 MLS Cup championship. Today, we step a year ahead to the bitter disappointment of an early exit from the 1999 MLS Cup playoffs.
It's important to preface the club's playoff experience in 1999 with a bit of context. After winning the 1998 MLS and U.S. Open Cup double, the Fire began a season of disappointments the following year with an early exit at the eventual U.S. Open Cup champions Rochester Rhinos on July 14.
Out of domestic cup competition, the team continued to focus on regular season play for the next two months before taking part in the CONCACAF Champions Cup in Las Vegas that fall. Playing on the rock-hard pitch at Sam Boyd Stadium, the Fire dispatched Trinidadian side Joe Public 2-0 in the first round before going to penalties with Costa Rican power Alajuelense after a 1-1 draw in the semifinal.
In the shootout, Lubos Kubik, who the year before had tallied six of six penalties taken during the regular season and playoffs, shot second and skied his effort high over the bar. His miss was the only one on the night as the Fire fell 5-4 to Alajuelense and leaving the Fire to miss out on the CONCACAF final played two days later.
"In 1998 we seemed like a team of destiny that was just preordained to win. A year later, it seemed the fates were evening out and there was nothing we could do to prevent the inevitable failure." – Former Chicago Fire President Peter Wilt
#2 Dallas Burn vs. #3 Chicago Fire – Western Conference Semifinals (best of three)
With the teams splitting their four matchups during the regular season, three of which went to the old MLS shootout to be decided, this playoff encounter promised to be a tight one.
GAME 1 played 10/16/1999 at The Cotton Bowl in Dallas, Texas
WATCH: '99 Western Conference Semifinals vs. Dallas
Despite their previously more exciting matche, the first half of Game One could have seemed more like a heavyweight bout where no one wanted to land the first punch as neither team registered a shot on goal.
The home side did have a bit more of the play though and took the lead in the 52nd minute through Ariel Graziani when the Ecuadorian striker chipped Oscar Pareja towards the end line before the current Colorado Rapids coach centered across the box for an easy finish.
The goal also marked the first time the Fire had ever trailed in a postseason match.
Dallas would take their lead to 2-0 in the 75th minute when Graziani pounced on a loose ball at midfield. He'd stroll alone into the box, forcing Fire 'keeper Zach Thornton to the floor before sliding the ball to the charging Mark Santel on the right, leaving the former U.S. international an easy finish past the desperate slide of Fire defender Tom Soehn.
The 2-0 score line seemed to wake the Fire up, pulling one back just four minutes later. Peter Nowak found the ball at the top of the penalty area and played it into the path of substitute midfielder John Ball on the right who slid a low effort past Dallas 'keeper Matt Jordan.
With the goal, the Fire were charged for an equalizer but saw late efforts from Paul Dougherty, Diego Gutierrez and Ball all go begging, eventually falling 2-1.
GAME 2 played 10/23/1999 at Soldier Field in Chicago, Ill.
Staring elimination in the face, the Fire picked up on the momentum from the end of the first game and took the lead 18 minutes in.
Diego Gutierrez had a misplaced clearance fall for him and took a low blast from distance. The ball ended up running perfectly into the stride of Peter Nowak who took one touch into the box before finishing past Jordan.
The Fire would double their lead 18 minutes later when Roman Kosecki pounced on a bouncing ball in midfield and strolled towards goal before hitting a somewhat weak left-footed effort that eluded Jordan and tucked inside the left post.
Ante Razov (right) would take the score to 3-0 just before the break. Chasing down a long ball out of the back from Jesse Marsch, Razov bodied off the challenge of Richard Farrer before seeing Jordan far off his line. The second-year Fire striker turned with the ball and hit a 20-yard effort that left the Dallas 'keeper only with a front row seat to see it.
Jordan continued his shocking display just after the half. Nowak chipped a ball into the box from the left for Kosecki who could only get a partial touch to the ball, making it look as if the Dallas 'keeper would come off his line to claim it. Jordan was a step late in his approach, however and Dema Kovalenko ran on, took a touch and finished from close range to close out the 4-0 score line.
The Fire seemed to have resurrected the demons from Game 1 and after Jordan's horrific performance in the second game, left Dallas coach Dave Dir to make a switch to veteran Mark Dodd for Game 3.
GAME 3 played 10/27/1999 at The Cotton Bowl in Dallas, Texas
The Fire's momentum from Game 2 seemed to barely miss a beat in the decider with the Fire taking on three minutes to go up 1-0.
On the goal, Jerzy Podbrozny played a quick centering pass for Lubos Kubik who played Ante Razov through into the box. To get through the Dallas back line, Razov spun in stride without even touching the ball before placing his low effort past Dodd.
The series looked all but over two minutes later. Kubik lined up for a free kick 35 yards from goal and whipped a beautiful in-swinger between the penalty spot and the six-yard box where a sliding Jesse Marsch redirected the ball past Dodd and into the top right corner to go up 2-0.
Things weren't all roses for the Fire in the first half as Razov left the match in the 15th minute with a hamstring strain. Already without Josh Wolff who had suffered a torn ACL back in August, the team's attack lacked its two leading scorers for the remaining 75 minutes.
As a result, the Fire would start to fall apart after the break. In the 55th minute, future Fire defender Sergi Daniv sent a cross from the right that Zach Thornton could only get a hand to before Chad Deering cleaned up with a header at the back post in the 55th minute.
After the strike, the Fire would look to take back their two-goal lead but Dodd would stand tall turning away three efforts in two minutes from Peter Nowak (67th) Lubos Kubik (68th) and John Ball (69th).
Gaining in frustration, the team was awarded a number of yellow cards but maintained the 2-1 lead into the final 10 minutes.
Things would come undone though when defender C.J. Brown, who had done a great job in marking Dallas striker Jason Kreis throughout the series, was whistled for handling the ball in the box in the 83rd minute. On the ensuing penalty, Jorge Rodriguez sent Thornton the wrong way and brought the match level.
With Dallas holding all the momentum at home, they pushed forward for the game and series clincher in the 90th minute. John Jairo Trellez pushed up on the right and centered a ball that deflected off of Brown and saw Thornton make a swiping effort before falling straight to the feet of Graziani (right) who cruelly one-timed his effort off the underside of the cross bar to complete one of the most stunning comebacks in MLS Cup playoff history.
The final 10 minutes and whole of 1999 left former Fire President Peter Wilt to simply say, "The penalty against us that tied the game seemingly made the final outcome inevitable. Just as 1998 was destined to be our year, 1999 was destined not to be."
The Fire would be left to look for redemption in 2000 (coming Wednesday)...
Bring the Fire, the club's 2013 season ticket renewal program, isn't all fun and games as you might expect.
As you know, the club has been sending a group of spirited individuals to houses in the Chicagoland area and surprising each season ticket holder with a gift for renewing their tickets prior to November 1.
Well, despite the happy faces on Fire supporters everywhere, we've been busted.
In coming up with the idea, we may or may not have borrowed the name of our merry gang from a certain Publishers Clearing House group that rhymes with "Size Parole".
Seeing as we are law abiding citizens here at the Chicago Fire, and we didn't want to let down all those supporters who are hurriedly rushing to renew their season tickets so that the team with Sparky, balloons and big checks would potentially come to their house we have decided to rename the "Eyes Condole" as the, wait for it…
We may or may not have had to overdub a few of the videos to appease some fancy lawyers in New York.
You never know, maybe the RADICAL REWARD FOR RENEWING YOUR CHICAGO FIRE SEASON TICKETS PATROL will show up to your house next.
Over the summer, we presented 15 Memorable Games and Goals from the club's first 15 seasons. We also asked you the fans who the top 15 players in club history were.
To be clear, you won't see numbers ranking the players. That's because this isn't a countdown but rather a series to honor 15 great players in Fire history.
In the previous four episodes of the #Fire15 presented by TrueCar, we've honored Chris Armas, DaMarcus Beasley, Cuauhtemoc Blanco, Carlos Bocanegra, Lubos Kubik, Jesse Marsch, Brian McBride, Logan Pause, Marco Pappa, Ante Razov, Chris Rolfe and Zach Thornton.
Today, three Ring of Fire inductees round out the list… The final three players are Frank Klopas, C.J. Brown and Peter Nowak.
Frank Klopas – Mr. Chicago. With eight goals and five assists across 50 games, it wasn't stats but rather the heart and commitment Frank showed that got him on this list. Maybe that winner in the '98 Open Cup final helped a bit too.
As Len Ziehm says in the video, the Fire needed someone local to help the new franchise make a connection to the city. Fans that remembered "Kid Klopas" from Chicago Sting in the 1980's were reinvigorated by the reappearance of the city's iconic soccer son in the club's inaugural 1998 season.
More than that, there's no player that has ever bled Chicago the way Klopas did in his two seasons playing for the Fire. Returning to the club as Technical Director in 2008 and now as head coach, Frank has served to remind the current crop of what it means every time they put on the shirt.
C.J. Brown – There are few players quite as deserving of being honored on such a list as C.J. Brown. The club's all-time appearance leader at 372, Brown is one of only three Fire players to be part of all six domestic titles and was the last connection in the locker room to the 1998 double-winning team.
Learning from the likes of Peter Nowak, Lubos Kubik and Chris Armas, the 1998 season helped guide the rest of his 13-year career, carrying on and passing down the same characteristics of hard work, competitiveness and integrity to young Fire players through the years.
As I say in the video, the former Fire captain was never flashy. He played hard, he picked up cards but he was the constant rock at the back. His legacy is still carried on in the Fire locker room today.
Peter Nowak – Often mentioned as the best player to ever wear the badge, Peter Nowak set the bar as high as it could go during his five seasons with the Fire.
Nowak joined Kubik, and fellow veteran Poles Jerzy Podbrozny and Roman Kosecki as a large core of the original Fire team, captaining the side to the 1998 double and winning MLS Cup MVP honors in the process.
Having played 147 competitive matches, the first signing in Chicago Fire history tallied 29 goals and retains the Fire record for assists across all competitions (60) and in MLS play (48).
At least 11 of the #Fire15 will be present at either Wednesday night's 15th Anniversary Match vs. Philadelphia or the October 8th Anniversary Party at the Chicago History Museum.

In this edition of Burning Questions we sat down with defender Jalil Anibaba. Now in his second season with the Fire, Jalil has put together a solid sophomore season, starting 26 of his 27 appearances. An integral part of a solid Fire defense, he has also contributed on the offensive side, scoring one goal and adding one assist. A native of Davis, Calif., Jalil was selected ninth overall in the 2011 MLS SuperDraft. Jalil took the time to answer our Burning Questions about his hidden talents, his favorite birthday memory and what it's like to own canaries.
Always on the Inside: You were named the Gatorade California Player of the Year for Soccer in 2006-07. What's your favorite Gatorade flavor?
Jalil Anibaba: Probably Glacier Freeze. Light blue.
AOTI: What is the most embarrassing song on your iPod?
JA: Probably a song of myself. I wouldn't say I sing a lot but it's a hobby of mine.
AOTI: Are you going to make us a mix tape?
JA: No. Definitely not. That's why it's one of the most embarrassing things on my iPod.
AOTI: Who plays Jalil Anibaba in the Jalil Anibaba movie?
JA: Probably one of my brothers because they know me so well, they'd be able to portray my character in the best light.
AOTI: Your brother Jammil and yourself look remarkably alike. How often do people confuse the two of you and have you ever used your similar looks to trick people?
JA: We've never used our similar looks to deceive people on purpose. In Chicago we get confused for each other pretty often. It happens a lot up in the Stadium Club after games but it's great having my brother here for support. It's awesome.
AOTI: Your birthday, which is on October 19, is almost exactly one month away. What's your favorite birthday memory?
JA: I would say being back in Davis when I was younger, in my teenage years and before that. My birthdays were always special because they were times when the whole family was together. My grandmother would always come and make my favorite cake, Lemon Pound Cake. We would just have dinner together, so they were great times and great experiences.
AOTI: Last year you put together a very solid rookie season, starting 27 of 29 matches and registering three goals (one of which became the team's Goal of the Year) and one assist. This year the Fire have another rookie defender, Austin Berry, who is putting together similar numbers. Do you consider him your protégé and have you ever called him Jalil Jr.? What do you think of him following in your footsteps?
JA: No, I definitely don't think of Austin as a Jalil protégé. Simply because I'm still a young player and I'm still trying to prove myself day in and day out. I think Austin has done a tremendous job learning on the curve, and that's part of being a rookie. His future is definitely bright.
AOTI: What's a typical day like in the life of Jalil Anibaba?
JA: I wake up for training, come to the stadium in the morning, and put in my day's work as far as my profession is concerned.
Once I leave the stadium, the day is pretty slow. I like to get a nap in after training and then pretty much after the nap, it's all about getting ready for the next day, so eating well, resting, watching either a movie or a couple of TV shows and just being ready for the next day.
AOTI: What TV shows do you like?
JA: There are a couple series that I've been intrigued with lately. I'm happy that season five of "Sons of Anarchy" started again; that's one of my top choices. I was into "Damages" but that show is done now. I'm a big fan of "Suits." With time on my hands I like to indulge in different TV series to entertain myself.
Reality TV is something that me and my brother and some of my friends like to get into. We watch "Love & Hip Hop" and "The Voice" to keep things light hearted."
AOTI: Do you have any hidden talents?
JA: When I was young I used to skateboard and I used to yo-yo. I'm a little rusty but maybe I could still do some tricks.
AOTI: Your dad raises canaries. What's the most interesting thing about canaries?
JA: What's interesting about them is that the males sing, and they sing beautifully. If you're ever to come to my house back in Davis, you'll definitely hear birds singing, and it's a great, great sound.

That's good. I laughed when I saw your "drum" reply to the prior post.
Look's like there is some good times to be had here at LKG. I would guess having a good sense of humor comes in handy for us Kings fans given what we've had to endure the last few seasons. Hopefully friends, that's about to change.

Return of the Lotus Eleven
Lotus brings back a legendary name with the Lotus 2 Eleven on display at the 2007 Tokyo auto show. The original Lotus Eleven was built from 1956 to 1958, and competed successfully in many races of that era. The new generation 2 Eleven is based on the Exige S, getting its suspension and 1.8-liter supercharged and intercooled engine. But Lotus manages to squeeze 16 percent more power out of it, upping horsepower to about 255 at its top engine speed of 8,000RPM. The 2 Eleven is currently Lotus' most powerful car, and it gets from 0 to 62 … Read more

Your girl's list was easier for me. I am not fond of many of these boy's names. There are only a couple that I really love.
So, the top 5 are Bertram (nn Bram) - I love Bram! Dexter and Edmund are favourties of mine. I will add Ethan and Nathan, but they are really just okay for me. I like them, but they are over used. I love Nate, but would use Nathaniel to get the nn, not Nathan.
Most of the names are just not my style. Least favourites are definitely Jago, Graeme, Gerard, Russell and Elliot.Last edited by niteowl13; July 21st, 2013 at 07:39 PM.

The Charlotte Bobcats came up short last night in the first game of their back to back against the Knicks. In the battle of past and current Bobcats point guards, DJ Augustin more than held his own against Raymond Felton. DJ lit up the Knicks to the tune of 24 points, 7 assists, 5 rebounds and 4 steals. Felton countered with 16 points and 9 assists and had his hands full keeping up with DJ all game.
The Bobcats fell into that familiar pattern that we've all grown accustomed to. Start off sluggish, fall behind by double digits in the first half, raise the defensive intensity in the 3rd, then turn it over to Stephen Jackson to hit huge shots in the 4th quarter. While I must admit that watching Captain Jack repeatedly nail illogical three pointers in the 4th quarter is entertaining, I'm pretty sure that it is not exactly how you want to structure your late game offense each and every game. Fun yes, Successful no.
A few observations:
- Landry Fields? What, Who??? It seems like every game there is some player that no one has ever heard of that steps up and pounds our starters. Today Fields ( 14 points, 7 boards, 2 steals ) was that guy following in the path of other unknowns that feasted on the Cats. For his hard work, we give him the renowned Sonny Weems / Gary Neal award.
- Tim Mozgov is still in the NBA? After this happened, I thought that he immediately filed his retirement papers.
Rony Turiaf is in clear violation of all past, present and future bearding ordinances. He has over-bearded and if I have to take matters into my own hands then I will file a grievance with both Commissioner Stern and the CEO of Gillette in order to get this situation rectified as soon as possible.
- At the end of the game we needed a three to tie, Why not put Matt Carroll in the game? If nothing else he would have been another threat from three point range out there in addition to Jackson, Diaw and DJ. Somebody enlighten me on that one.
Next up, the Knicks again. Will it look any different tonight?

What Has Europe Wrought in Cyprus?
The eurozone will pay the price for its treatment of Cyprus.
Scheherazade S. Rehman is a professor of international finance/business and international affairs at The George Washington University. You can visit her homepage here and follow her on Twitter @Prof_Rehman.
The Cyprus rescue bailout case is special and different on two fronts. The first is that the bailout literally went after (plundered) foreign investors' money, and the second is that for the first time local depositors are being held responsible for fixing their own banking crisis directly.
On the first issue of the predatory raiding of foreign depositors, I would like to ask the question very few have raised: "What if the large depositors in Cyprus had been French or German?" Would the troika—European Commission (EC), the International Monetary Fund (IMF), and the European Central Bank (ECB)—then have demanded that large foreign depositors take a 40 to 60 percent haircut directly?
It turned out, instead, that the large foreign depositors were mostly Russians parking their money in Cyprus's offshore banking system legally and in some cases for money laundering schemes. Cyprus is, in effect, a smaller, less developed, southern version of a Luxembourg or Lichtenstein money center.
This is what makes Cyprus special and different from Portugal, Greece or Spain. The Europeans, especially the Germans and French, have never wanted this small, offshore, less developed island to be in the big money tax haven business, especially with Russian money. Going after deposits of over euro 100,000 almost guarantees that all Russian investors would be hit and hit hard. Estimated losses are between 60 and 80 percent for these foreign (and local) investors who have uninsured deposits of over euro 100,000. Perhaps Russian paranoia was justified.
[See a collection of political cartoons on the European debt crisis.]
Well, nonetheless, the troika has done a good job of making sure that Cyprus can no longer compete with Luxembourg or any other small country offshore tax haven. It is, in fact, no longer a viable place for offshore banking. The unintended consequence of trying to clean out a sketchy offshore banking system is that foreign investors will be very reluctant to invest in Cyprus again for any reason.
This effectively cuts Cyprus off at the knees, as we know that a deep recession and all sorts of socio-economic ills are going to befall the island. The loss of confidence as a safe place for foreign investors is the proverbial death knell for this economy.
The second reason why the Cyprus bailout case is different is that, for the first time, local depositors (taxpayers) are being held responsible for fixing a banking crisis directly. When Dutch Finance Minister Jeroen Dijsselbloem (Chairman of the eurozone finance ministers group) indicated that this particular rescue now "represents a new template for dealing with financial crisis in the eurozone with uninsured deposits bearing some of the cost," he doomed all small southern country banks.
When Cypriots fully reopen their banks and remove their capital controls, all large local and foreign investors will want to flee to safer grounds. This is why Cyprus has become the first country in the eurozone to impose capital controls in order to halt the outflow of money.
There are a few subtleties to note here. Although losses will be experienced by hierarchy (shareholders, bondholders and then uninsured depositors) what has happened is that the principal of moral hazard has been firmly established. For starters, depositors will be forced to swap out their cash deposits for bank shares (equity) for over 60 percent of their deposits. Additionally, instituting capital controls essentially makes captured Cypriot euros different than the euros in the rest of the eurozone (they are worth less due to their inability to travel easily).
Capital controls, although always meant to be temporary, tend to last longer than expected. For example, Iceland instituted them during its crisis and four years later they are still in place. I cannot imagine the Cypriots loosening capital controls anytime soon.
[See a collection of political cartoons on the economy.]
Investors and large depositors do not forgive nor forget these things easily. All off this will make sure that the southern periphery countries of the eurozone will remain weak. Ultimately, this will come back and haunt northern Europeans. This has all but reinforced a two-speed eurozone (North versus South).
The Cypriot government should never have entered into such a deal (although they didn't have much choice) and the EC, ECB and IMF have opened Pandora's box in scaring investors and depositors from putting their money in any southern European bank in the near term. In the end, the northern Eurozone members will have to pay the price for this debacle of a rescue.

UPDATE: Shell just announced it will not drill in Alaska in 2014. That's great news for the Arctic, but Shell still plans to partner with Gazprom to drill in Russia. We're closer to winning than ever, so tell Shell's CEO to end Arctic drilling for good!Oil giant Gazprom recently began pumping the world's first drops of oil from beneath the icy Arctic seas, home to polar bears and where an oil spill would be impossible to clean up.
If Gazprom isn't stopped, this trickle could soon become a flood. But the oil giant's ability to turn the pristine Arctic into a wasteland depends on its powerful partner: Shell. The two have signed a reckless deal to open up even more of the far north to drilling -- but it's not set in stone yet. Shell's new boss takes over in January and with him comes a chance to rethink the company's Arctic folly.
We know that many inside Shell are not convinced by Arctic drilling, and investors are increasingly skeptical. With the recent global outcry against the imprisonment of 28 peaceful activists and 2 freelance journalists following a protest at a Gazprom oil platform, this may be the best chance we've ever had to protect this fragile region.
Tell Shell's new CEO, Ben van Beurden, to put scrapping Arctic oil drilling and ending the risky deal with Gazprom at the top of his to-do list.

Every season we try and look back and recognize the high school athletes at the top of their game. I love shooting these kids because they are always so excited to be awarded the honor and willing to try just about anything as was Naperville Central's Jill D'Amico who was named the Naperville Sun Soccer player of the year. We took the shot out at Central's soccer field and despite having to go play a few games over the coming days Jill dove, time after time, while her dad tossed the ball, until we got the perfect shot. | Brian Powers~Sun-Times Media
High school sports, especially the playoffs are a roller coaster of emotions. Last season West Aurora basketball team made a run into the playoffs and after a hard fought sectional win against Metea Valley, West standout Juwan Starks was rushed by his teammates on the floor and let out a big yell in excitement. I had made my way onto the floor as the buzzer sounded to capture the excitement and was thankfully right over Starks as his team jumped him. | Brian Powers~Sun-Times Media
One of my favorite assignments this year was the NATO protests in May. We have all seen the images of conflict between the cops and protesters but that was only a fraction of the weekend. For the most part there was just a lot of chanting and walking. Leading up to the big conflict at Michigan and Cermak you could feel the tension rising as the protest got restless and continued to try and push east toward McCormick Center. I fought my way to the front of the line of protesters to find this woman standing, shoulder to shoulder with the protesters. As tensions rose I noticed her turn to this young man and touch his cheek, almost as if to say, "it will be alright." Shortly after this the riot broke out and I lost track of them both in the chaos. | Brian Powers~Sun-Times Media
Aside from the big scuffle at Michigan and Cermak the protesters, were, for the most part, really laid back- almost to a fault. I never felt a clear sense of a direction stemming from a lack of leadership in the Occupy movement, leading to multiple groups going in multiple directions and thinning further their already low numbers. Also, after Sunday afternoon came and went it felt as if there was a giant weight lifted from everyones shoulders. That night they danced in the rain in front of the Art Institute and the next day was followed by a "cuddle summit" on Randolph street. | Brian Powers~Sun-Times Media
This year marked the beginning of a new home on the Mooseheart campus, The Maternity Home. I spent a few months following and documenting the first class of young women as they journeyed not only through the trials of being a teenager but going through a pregnancy at the same time. On one trip I went with house mom Amy, back right, and mother Lily as she got an ultra sound done at Rush-Copley to find out the sex of her baby on Tuesday, November 29, 2011. It is going to be a boy, the third in the house. | Brian Powers~Sun-Times Media
After covering two towns Fourth of July parades I was feeling less than stellar and the hot July afternoon. I paused for a minute while photographing the finish of Aurora's parade and decided to focus on the crowd that had gathered to watch the parade in it's final leg. Everyday I strive to make photos interesting photos that keep peoples attention and in this photo you can find an interesting face each time you look at it. | Brian Powers~Sun-Times Media
Some photos are incredibly beautiful while others have a deeper beauty that not everyone sees. After finishing up an earlier assignment I met Patti De Jesus tending to her garden despite the rising heat. We talked for awhile as I photographed her working and soon enough we said our goodbyes and I went back to the office. The photo never ran in the paper but it did on our photo blog online and the response was astounding. A comment from her son, 2000 miles away, said, "I swell with pride to see her and remember every moment of my blessed childhood being raised by this amazing God fearing woman." Being able to impact peoples lives while sharing the world around us is why I love my job and knowing that this photo brought back such good memories for this man is an amazing feeling. | Brian Powers~Sun-Times Media
I met Ramon Loza while photographing an assignment at Hesed House and after hearing him talk about his families struggles I knew I had to meet them. Fast forward a few months Ramon and his wife Destiny moved into their new home on the east side after two years of not having a home, living in and out of Hesed House and motels in the area. On their first day of moving in they both crashed on the floor, Ramon sprawled out at Destiny's feet knowing they finally had a place to call home. | Brian Powers~Sun-Times Media

MPD's troubles
In May, an MPD officer was charged in the deaths of his girlfriend and their 1-year-old baby. Last month, another officer was charged with stealing more than $43,000 from an 85-year-old woman.
Three more officers were caught buying stolen merchandise. And one officer is accused of helping her boyfriend break into homes.
The number of officers arrested so far this year is not only an increase for the D.C. police, it's far more than surrounding police departments.
So far this year, four Prince George's officers have been arrested. Montgomery County police report three of their officers have been charged with crimes and in Fairfax, no officers have been arrested this year.
MPD Chief Cathy Lanier is trying to determine if there is any common link between all the arrests. She tells ABC7 that the department is implementing more rigorous background checks for new officers.
Councilmember Phil Mendelson, who oversees the police department, says he's concerned and would hold public hearings if investigations find there is a systemic breakdown.

SOME FAMILIAR LETTERS BETWEEN Mr. LOCKE, AND SEVERAL OF HIS FRIENDS.TO THE READER.The following letters, offered to your perusal, are the genuine productions of those gentlemen, to whom they are attributed. They contain not only such civil and polite conversation, as friendship produces among men of parts, learning, and candour; but several matters relating to literature, and more particularly to Mr. Locke's notions, in his "Essay concerning human understanding," and in some of his other works: and therefore I cannot doubt of your thanks for the present I make you. For, though the curiosity of some, to see whatever drops from the pens of great men, and to inform themselves in their private characters, their tempers, dispositions, and manner of conversing with their friends, would perhaps have justified me, in publishing any letters of Mr. Locke's, and of his friends to him, that were not letters of mere business; yet my regard to what I take to be the more general judgment of the public, has determined me to publish such only, as have relation to this twofold view, and shall determine me hereafter, if gentlemen, that have any letters of Mr. Locke's by them, think fit to communicate them to me. FAMILIAR LETTERS, &c.Mr. Locke to Mr. Molyneux.SIR,London, July 16, 1692. THOUGH the extraordinary compliment you were pleased to make me, in the epistle dedicatory* , easily persuaded me, from whom that present was likely to come; when, at my coming to town, I found your book left for me, by Mr. Tooke, at my bookseller's; yet my consciousness, how little I could deserve the one, or the other, from you, made me fear some mistake, till inquiring of Mr. Tooke himself, he assured me of the favour you had done me. I will not pretend to return you such thanks as I ought, till I can write such a book as yours is. Only give me leave to say, that if my trifle could possibly be an occasion of vanity to me, you have done most to make it so, since I could scarce forbear to applaud myself, upon such a testimony from one who so well understands demonstration, did I not see that those who can be extreme rigorous and exact in the search of truth, can be as civil and as complaisant in their dealing with those whom they take to be lovers of it. But this cannot keep me from being out of countenance at the receipt of such obligations, without the hopes of making such returns as I ought. Instead of that, give me leave to do what is next to it, and let you see that I am not sorry I am obliged to you. The bearer hereof, Dr. Sibelius, is a friend of mine, who comes to Dublin with a design to settle there, and I beg your assistance of him, in what lies in your way. I shall take it as a favour done to me. And methinks I have reason now to expect it of you, since you have done me more than once, very great ones, when I had no reason to expect any at all. Sir, you have made great advances of friendships towards me, and you see they are not lost upon me. I am very sensible of them, and would make such an use of them as might assure you I should take it for a new favour, if you would afford me an occasion wherein I might, by any service, tell you how much I am, SIR,

Worst customer service ever
I have had the same poor service as mentions by most people, lie after lie charges placed on account randomly, service cancelled by mistake. The Indian call centre being the worst they lie to get rid of you, and one made me change settings pn my computer which cost me money to get sorted out. I now only communicate by email and copy the ombudsmen into emails I also advise I will be charging for my time at £25 per hour from x date. This has got me an instant call back every time from an British call centre and follow up emails confirming what's been agreed. I suggest you only use this method I have got refunds, a person tracking my problem and giving follow up calls etc. I will leave bt as soon as contract ends for which the date has been changed by bt without my knowledge. But in the mean time I seem to have found am effective way to get my needs met. Which is still frustrating and time consuming but seems to be working better than before.

I was thinking the other day that Jason Heyward is so young that he doesn't remember George Bush, Sr. being president. I mean, he's heard of him (I think), but he was only 3-years-old when he left office. Amongst other things, Heyward missed John Travolta's career downturn with talking babies, Sean Penn protecting Madonna, Timothy Dalton playing Bond and Billy Crystal as a leading man.
Please, blog, may I have some more?2011 Fantasy Baseball Keepers
This isn't the days when Brady Anderson's sideburns once hit 2 homers in a game while Brady was out with a broken foot. 30 to 45 homers is a lot nowadays. In the final weeks of September, there's 4 guys who have 35 homers. I think Sammy Sosa once hit 35 homers in a month. Of those current 35 homer guys, one is a first rounder. One of those guys is having a career year. One of those guys in a Big Donkey. And the last guy is staying at the Renaissance Hotel. Mike Stanton is going to hit somewhere between 30 and 45 homers next year. At the age of 21. ARE YOU KIDDING ME? No kidding, Al Caps. For better or worse, the Marlins are a team that gives rookies rope to hang themselves. (See Cameron Maybin's last two years for further reading on that subject.) So Stanton can scuffle for a month or two, but he's here to stay. So what can we expect of Mike Stanton for 2011 fantasy baseball and what makes him a keeper?
Please, blog, may I have some more?'The willies' as defined by Oxford English Dictionary is a fearful uneasiness of the guy on your street corner that wears a recyclable shopping bag for a shirt and tells you you're going to hell. 2nd definition, fearful uneasiness of owning Pirate hitters in fantasy. We'll be dealing with the 2nd definition; you're on your own with the first one. Should all Pirate hitters give us the willies? No willies on The Dread Pirate. Robot Jones — occasional willies. Neil Walker — no willies for his position. Jose Tabata — no willies, but worried about willies for next year. Pedro Alvarez — some willies now, no future willies. There's going to be a Pedro Alvarez sleeper post for 2011. I'm telling you now because, if you go into hibernation for five months and rub the crusties out of your eyes to see a Pedro Alvarez sleeper post in 2011, I want you to know I have not been talking about Alvarez for the last five months, it'll only feel like that to you. Phew, was the longest run-on sentence ever or what? I blame Strunk & White. So what makes Pedro Alvarez a fantasy baseball keeper for 2011?
Please, blog, may I have some more?Member those days when you and your buddies sat around your one buddy's DJ equipment? You know, the buddy who claimed to be a DJ but really wasn't any good at all and only played at other friends' parties. Member how you used to sniff glue? Good times, indeed. Wait, what was I saying? Stupid huffing short-term memory killer. Oh, yeah, getting high.
Please, blog, may I have some more?This week we're starting a new weekly column that will be here every Monday afternoon, it will be all about fantasy baseball keepers. The column will then move to Friday in the offseason. Since many fantasy baseball keeper leagues don't decide on their keepers until the start of the new season, I figured I'd go over some fantasy baseball keepers from now until next spring. These aren't guys that are obviously keepers. You won't find Hanley or Pujols here. These are guys that you might've been able to grab in deep leagues and hold onto for next year on the cheap. Who doesn't love a bargain?! My dead grandmother loved a bargain. Her death and bargains were in no way related. Filene's Basement was completely acquitted in that case. Though me and Grandpa we believe. We believe…
Delmon Young was overdue for a post about him. The language of his contract was a bit murky, but here's the pertinent information, "…at no time prior to 2009 or during the 2010 baseball season will Delmon Young receive an entire post dedicated to him or a lead in a roundup or Buy/Sell, unless he actually does something. Something to be determined solely by Grey Albright. If Grey Albright relinquishes said responsibility, then the hundred monkeys that write these facacta posts shall decide in a winner-takes-all round robin Parcheesi tournament." See, I had to write about him; last thing we want is Delmon to get all litigious on our ass.
Please, blog, may I have some more?

This article describes and provide photographs and microscopic photographs of algae, moss, lichens, or fungal growth that occurs on buildings and in nature. We include links to references useful in the identification of algae, moss, lichens, and mold. Our photo at page top shows moss on an asphalt shingle roof. Green links show where you are. © Copyright 2014 InspectApedia.com, All Rights Reserved. What does Algae look like on buildings and under the microscope?This article series tells readers how to identify, evaluate, remove or prevent stains on building surfaces. Also see ALGAE, FUNGUS, LICHENS, MOSS on SHINGLES where we describe not only moss and lichens but black fungal stains on asphalt shingles and on other building surfaces. For an extensive catalog of methods for preventing algae, moss, or lichens growth on roofs see How to Prevent Moss, Lichens & Algae Growth on Roofs. See BLACK STAIN REMOVAL & PREVENTION for advice on diagnosing, cleaning, and preventing algae stains on roofing. Black stains due to algae: Algae often appears on organic and even inorganic surfaces of buildings and in nature such as on the asphalt roof shingles in this photo. Black algae stains can also look a lot like extractive bleeding shown in this separate article on "EXTRACTIVE BLEEDING on SHINGLES" which can appear on asphalt roof shingles. While algae is the most common source of black or green roof stains on shingles, when the staining or bleeding appears to run down the roof from individual small points or "spots" this may be something other than a fungal growth or soot: it may b e extractive bleeding or "bleed through" on shingles. (See ALGAE STAINS ON ASPHALT ROOF SHINGLES and also STAINS on ROOF SHINGLES for a more detailed discussion of bleed through or extractive bleeding as well as black algae stains on roof shingles.) The presence of algae on the roof is an indicator that this roof area is in a shaded spot where you may want to be alert for development of moss or other roof problems, but the level of damage from algae is probably low, even less than that caused by lichens. Avoid any aggressive cleaning methods that might damage the roof surface.
What does Lichens look like on buildings, in nature, and in the microscope?Lichens, one of the most hardy growth organisms found in nature, can grow in harsh conditions. Lichens is often found growing on roof shingles, especially asphalt and wood shingles as we show here. Our photographs (above) show lichens growing on an asphalt roof shingle in situ (above left). In the photo where our pen is inserted for scale (above right) we had "picked" the spot of lichens gently and flipped it over. Our pen points to the hole left in the asphalt shingle as the lichens had such a good grip on the mineral granules that when removing the lichens it brought some of the roof protective coating along with itself. If you click to enlarge the photo at above right you'll see the actual mineral granules from the shingle adhered in the "roots" of the lichens. See Lichens on Roofs for details about the causes, effects, and prevention of lichens growth on roofing surfaces. Also see Lichens on Stone Surfaces. What does Moss look like on buildings, in nature, and in the microscope?Moss growing on any roof surface will be more severe on roof sections that area shaded and exposed to periodically damp cool weather conditions. The presence or absence of much sunlight on a roof surface is often a determining factor in the amount of moss or lichens growth (more sun, less moss and lichens. Moss and lichens are more than a cosmetic issue on many kinds of roofing materials - asphalt shingles, roll roofing, wood shingle roofs, wood shake roofs. By holding moisture against the roof surface lichens but more so moss speed the wear of the asphalt shingle surface in freezing climates by increasing frost damage to the mineral granule coating on the shingles.
For an extensive catalog of methods for preventing algae, moss, or lichens growth on roofs see How to Prevent Moss, Lichens & Algae Growth on Roofs. See Black Stain Removal & Prevention for advice on diagnosing, cleaning, and preventing algae stains on roofing. Online Guide to Types of Stains on Building Surfaces:In the following guide we list types of stains by stain color & appearance, by building location or material, and by stain cause. We distinguish among the following stuff that may stain or be found growing building roofs, walls, or other surfaces, with extra focus on asphalt shingle roofs as well as other roofing materials such as wood shingles, wood shakes, roll roofing, and even slate or tile roofs. Some of these types of roof stains or discoloration are only cosmetic in nature, while others may indicate growths that are likely to reduce the roof covering life. A more detailed, illustrated version of the list below is given at STAIN DIAGNOSIS on BUILDING EXTERIORS.

Parenting: I Smoked Pot And Watched Pr0n And All I Got Was To Make This Crappy Sign
This is a picture of a kid who got busted smoking pot and watching pr0n. And because getting caught by your parents WHILE YOU'RE HIGH AND WITH YOUR WIENER IN YOUR HAND isn't bad enough, they made him make this sign and stand by the road. God, you poor bastard.

Re: Into Darkness. Terrible!
You cannot use the expression "I didn't know not to post twice," because that doesn't matter. If you said you're not going to comment on it again, only to make a new thread about it in one of the topmost visible Trek forums, then you're either lying, or trolling.
