we've been fans of Matthew Niederhauser's photography ever since he caught our eye with his book Sound Kapital, which by many accounts was the western world's first glimpse into Beijing's underground music scene. That's why when we received an email from him a couple months back letting us know he was coming out to Chongqing for an assignment, we were both bummed and excited. Bummed because we weren't going to be around to meet him, but excited to see the images he would come out with.
Those images, part of this story for Foreign Policy magazine are now available online, here. The images do a wonderful job of capturing the shear magnitude of Chongqing, and inspire awe, even for a three or so year veteran of the city.

For nearly two years, the slogans, portraits and artwork that went up on walls around the country depicting the goals, heroes and events of the uprising have been erased nearly as quickly.
So a group of artists, photographers and a publisher joined hands to preserve the images. "Wall Talk" -- their newly released 680-page book -- collects hundreds of photos of graffiti dating from the Jan. 25, 2011 eruption of the revolt against then-President Hosni Mubarak until today. The result is a street history that chronicles image by image the evolution of Egypt's upheaval, which has yet to settle.
In a sign of the continuing resonance of graffiti, the artists have recently turned to a new target: Newly elected Islamist President Mohammed Morsi.
Last month, a giant mural of revolution graffiti on a street off Tahrir Square, the focus of the revolution's protest demonstrations, was partially painted over, and within hours, artists refilled much of it with new images, some of them denouncing Morsi and his Muslim Brotherhood.
"You are a regime that is frightened by paint brushes and pens, you oppress and stamp on the oppressed. If you were doing the right thing, you would not be afraid of what's painted ... but you are a coward in your heart of hearts," reads a rhyming Arabic verse, addressing the president, one of the new images on the street, where some of the deadliest clashes between protesters and security forces took place last year.
"Wall Talk" publisher Sherif Boraie says graffiti was the vehicle that delivered clear, strong and angry messages during the anti-Mubarak uprising and afterward. Now it reflects the depth of frustration over the perceived failure of the revolution to realize its main goals, he said.

Tempe authorities say they have arrested a second gunman involved in a shootout at Arizona Mills mall in Tempe in December.
Tempe police said Perren Robertson, Jr., 20, was arrested Friday in the 6400 block of W. McDowell Road in Phoenix.
Police arrested Voyee Smith, 20, on Dec. 28, 2013 - the night of the shooting - after police found him at his girlfriend's home in Tempe.
Tempe police spokesman Sgt. Mike Pooley said it was just before 6 p.m. on the Saturday night when Smith got involved in some type of altercation with another group at the mall located near Mill Avenue and Priest Drive in Tempe.
During the fight Smith and Robertson allegedly pulled guns and began firing at each other. At least six shots rang out, officers said.
One of the bullets hit Smith's girlfriend in the arm during the exchange of gunfire, Pooley said.
As Smith fled the area in his car he hit another vehicle before leaving the area.
Police caught up to Smith after his girlfriend notified authorities that she had been shot. Smith was located at his girlfriend's residence along with his firearm, Pooley said.
"This area was crowded with multiple pedestrians coming and going from the entrance to the mall and to their vehicles," Pooley said.
Smith is charged with unlawful discharge of a firearm within city limits, endangerment and duty on striking an unattended vehicle.
Robertson is charged with three counts of aggravated assault and one count of endangerment.

Mario Castelnuovo-Tedesco (April 3, 1895 – March 16, 1968) was an Italian composer. He was known as one of the foremost guitar composers in the twentieth century with almost one hundred compositions for that instrument. In 1939 he migrated to the United States and became a film composer for MGM Studios for some 200 Hollywood movies for the next fifteen years. He also wrote concertos for such soloists as Jascha Heifetz and Gregor Piatigorsky.
Born in Florence, he was descended from a prominent banking family that had lived in the city since the expulsion of Jews from Spain in 1492. Castelnuovo-Tedesco was first introduced to the piano by his mother, and he composed his first pieces when he was just nine years old. After completing a degree in piano in 1914 under Edgardo Del Valle de Paz (1861–1920), well-known composer and pianist pupil of Beniamino Cesi, he began studying composition under renowned Italian composer Ildebrando Pizzetti, and received a diploma in composition in 1918. He soon came to the attention of composer and pianist Alfredo Casella, who included the young Castelnuovo-Tedesco's work in his repertoire. Casella also ensured that Castelnuovo's works would be included in the repertoires of the Societa Nazionale di Musica (later the Corporazione delle Nuove Musiche), granting him exposure throughout Europe as one of Italy's up-and-coming young composers. Works by him were included in the first festival of the International Society of Contemporary Music, held in Salzburg, Austria, in 1922.[1]
In 1926, Castelnuovo-Tedesco premiered his opera La Mandragola, based on a play by Niccolò Machiavelli. It was the first of his many works inspired by great literature, and which included interpretations of works by Aeschylus, Virgil, John Keats, William Wordsworth, Walt Whitman, Miguel de Cervantes, Federico García Lorca, and especially William Shakespeare. Another major source of inspiration for him was his Jewish heritage, most notably the Bible and Jewish liturgy. His Violin Concerto No. 2 (1931), written at the request of Jascha Heifetz, was also an expression of his pride in his Jewish origins, or as he described it, the "splendor of past days," in the face of rising anti-Semitism that was sweeping across much of Europe.
At the 1932 festival of the International Society of Contemporary Music, held in Venice, Castelnuovo-Tedesco first met the Spanish guitarist Andrés Segovia. The meeting inspired Castelnuovo-Tedesco to write his Guitar Concerto No. 1, one of the first of almost one hundred compositions for that instrument, which earned him a reputation as one of the foremost composers for the guitar in the twentieth century. Later on, Castelnuovo-Tedesco composed many other guitar pieces dedicated to Segovia, who was an enthusiast of his style.
The following year the Italian fascist government developed a program toward the arts, which were viewed as a tool for propaganda and promotion of racial ideas.[citation needed] Even before the Italian government promulgated the Italian Racial Laws in 1938, Castelnuovo-Tedesco was banned from the radio and performances of his work were cancelled. The new racial laws, however, convinced him that he should leave Italy.[2] He wrote to Arturo Toscanini, the former musical director of La Scala, who left Italy in 1933, explaining his plight, and Toscanini responded by promising to sponsor him as an immigrant in the United States. Castelnuovo-Tedesco left Italy in 1939, shortly before the outbreak of World War II.
In the meantime, he wrote his Cello Concerto in G minor, Op. 72, for Gregor Piatigorsky. It was premiered with the dedicatee under Arturo Toscanini in New York in 1935.[3] For Piatigorsky he also wrote a Toccata (1935), and a piece called Greeting Card, Op. 170/3, based on the spelling of Piatigorsky's name.[4]
Like many artists who fled fascism, Castelnuovo-Tedesco ended up in Hollywood, where, with the help of Jascha Heifetz, he landed a contract with Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer as a film composer. Over the next fifteen years, he worked on scores for some 200 films there and at the other major film studios. Rita Hayworth hired him to write the music for The Loves of Carmen (1948), produced by Hayworth for her Beckworth Productions and released by Columbia Pictures.
He was a significant influence on other major film composers, including Henry Mancini, Nelson Riddle, Herman Stein and André Previn. Jerry Goldsmith, Marty Paich and John Williams were all his pupils,[5] as was Scott Bradley, who studied privately with him while both were on staff at MGM. His relationship to Hollywood was ambiguous: later in life he attempted to deny the influence that it had on his own work, but he also believed that it was an essentially American artform, much as opera was European.
In 1946 Castelnuovo-Tedesco became a U.S. citizen, but he remained very close to Italy, which he frequently visited. In 1958 he won the Concorso Campari with the opera The Merchant of Venice, which was first performed in 1961 at the Maggio Musicale Fiorentino under the baton of Gianandrea Gavazzeni.[2]
In 1962 he wrote Les Guitares bien tempérées for two guitars, a set of 24 preludes and fugues in all 24 major and minor keys, for the duo-guitarists Alexandre Lagoya and Ida Presti. This was inspired by The Well-Tempered Clavier by Johann Sebastian Bach, a composer Castelnuovo-Tedesco revered.
In the United States, Castelnuovo-Tedesco also composed new operas and works based on American poetry, Jewish liturgy, and the Bible. He died in Beverly Hills, California at the age of 72. He is buried at Westwood Village Memorial Park Cemetery.
The Library of Congress in Washington, DC hosts the Mario Castelnuovo Collection, a collection of manuscripts of the composer, donated by the family in 2000. The catalogue is accessible online.[6]
in 2005 the autobiography of the composer (Una vita di musica: un libro di ricordi), written shortly before his death, was published in Italy.[7]

NEW YORK (AP) -- Stock futures rose Wednesday as a government report showed businesses continue to invest in more machinery, computer systems and other long-lasting items despite the big cut to a tax benefit for doing so.
Dow Jones industrials futures rose 28 points to 13,152 and Standard & Poor's 500 futures rose 2.4 points to 1,408.8. The Nasdaq composite futures edged up 6 points to 2,781.75.
The Commerce Department reported before the market opening that orders for durable goods, things expected to last at least three years, rose 2.2 percent. Orders for machinery, computers, autos and aircraft fueled the rise.
The report comes a day after a consumer confidence index showed Americans have remained resilient in the face of skyrocketing gasoline costs.
The durable goods number is significant because of a shift in tax policy that some feared would dampen growth. Businesses last year could reduce taxable profits by an amount that equaled the cost of major investments. That tax benefit has been halved and many economists aid a big January drop-off in spending was the cause.
Another major concern for economic policy makers, energy prices, may be helping fuel a rebound as well.
Futures for crude, natural gas, heating oil and gasoline were all falling early Wednesday, with gasoline leading the way.
Oil prices fell to near $106 a barrel Wednesday after a report suggesting a larger-than-expected jump in U.S. crude supplies, suggesting demand remains weak.
The American Petroleum Institute said late Tuesday that crude inventories rose 3.6 million barrels last week. That is a bigger jump than was predicted by Platts, the energy information arm of McGraw-Hill Cos. Platts expects an increase of 2.8 million barrels.
If consumers get a break on what they have to pay for energy, that would almost certainly provide another bump to the U.S. economy.
The Energy Information Administration releases its weekly report at 10:30 a.m. Eastern.

Versatile violinist Zach De Pue will return to Blue Lake on Sunday, June 29, 2008, at 7:30 PM, as soloist with the Festival Band, under the direction of Kent Krive. The concert will take place at Stewart Memorial Shell and will be broadcast live on Blue Lake Public Radio.
Mr. De Pue, recently appointed concertmaster of the Indianapolis Symphony Orchestra, will perform a piece entitled The Fiddler's Contest, composed by his father, Dr. Wallace De Pue. Dr. De Pue is retired from the faculty of Bowling Green State University in Bowling Green, Ohio, and holds the rank of Emeritus Professor.
In addition to his duties with the Indianapolis Symphony, Zach De Pue is one of the founding members of Time for Three, a group of three classically-trained string players who perform in a wide range of styles, including classical, jazz, bluegrass, and folk. Mr. De Pue also actively performs with his three violin-playing brothers, who concertize together as The De Pue Brothers. Zach toured Europe in 1993 with Blue Lake's International Youth Symphony Orchestra.

Over my five years of affiliation with Blue Lake, I have found that each summer at camp inspires me to challenge the way I live and view the world. After my first summer as a camper, I left a disciplined musician, ready to take on leadership roles. My experiences with the International program, in various roles, have inspired me to question my identity as an American and to seek out ways, as stated in the mission statement of the International program "to promote peace and understanding."

For many years, arts educators have been fighting a daunting battle with school boards governmental agencies at all levels to place a high priority on the idea that all children deserve a thorough education in the arts. Blue Lake Fine Arts Camp was founded, in part, to assist schools in providing a top-flight education in the arts to as many students as they could possibly serve.
"[T]he importance of arts education . . . speaks directly to the mission of Blue Lake Fine Arts Camp," says Bill McFarlin, Blue Lake's Executive Vice President. "The opportunity to instill in young people the lifetime value of arts and culture and how it can enrich their lives is an awesome responsibility."
Blue Lake alumni were asked to weigh in on this subject and their answers were enlightening and, in no small measure, encouraging. The responses centered on the ability of the arts to enhance creativity and provide for a well-rounded education, as well practical considerations, such as helping to develop life skills, promoting citizenship, and acting as an alternative outlet for at-risk children.

Blue Lake offers dedication opportunities for its new Health Lodge
Blue Lake is continuing its fundraising activities for a new Health Lodge facility.
Each summer, our Health Lodge staff cares for the health and first aid needs of over 5,100 campers and more than 450 staff. 20% of our campers have daily, mandatory medications that are required to be distributed from the Health Lodge. 30% of our campers and staff report to the Health Lodge for a variety of illnesses or first aid treatments, some on multiple occasions.
Blue Lake is offering dedication opportunities corporations, foundations, and individuals for the new Health Lodge. In return for the specific contributions, the building or other parts of it will be named in honor of the donors.
Blue Lake frequently makes its supporters aware of specific fundraising efforts that it undertakes: for the new Health Lodge, for camper scholarships, etc. However, we often need specific items, some large, some small.
If you have any of the items on our "wish list" below that you are no longer using, perhaps you might consider donating them to Blue Lake. You can take a tax deduction for the fair market value of the item (although IRS regulations prohibit us from placing a value on the item for you). All items should be in good working condition.

BRICE BLANC, BENCH GLORY, WINNER: "She did great. First time out after a long layoff like this, you never know. She liked the course and she was ready today. She's super-special. She put me in the race like she always does and came up with that strong kick."
(In response to what a Frenchman does on St. Patty's Day.)
"I can't drink beer, so I guess I'll have to think of something else to do. Champagne . . . Irish champagne!"
MIKE SMITH, ISMENE, WINNER: "On dirt, I win. You know, dirt's better. But, she's (Ismene) so classy, she'll run over anything. But I think you'll see the best of her on the dirt. This was the kind of race that I think that she'll get a whole lot out of. I couldn't take her back anymore or he (Brice Blanc on Bench Glory) would have caught me sooner to be honest. When she hit the dirt (on the gap from the down hill to the main turf course) she really hit her stride. I think you'll see the real her next time out."
SEAN McCARTHY, BENCH GLORY, WINNER: "This would the first one (stakes race) I've won here, so it was a great thrill. We pointed for this race when she came back in. She didn't have any conditions; it was either try this or try for a high claiming spot.
"I liked the way she was training and I know she has some class to her, so we took a shot and got lucky and got it done, so I'm really pleased. I'm really excited. To win a stakes race here at this place . . . when I was a little kid, I'm from Northern California, when you looked at this place, it was the Yankee Stadium."
On the year layoff: "She just had some issues going on, aches and pains. There were no fractures, no chips, no surgery involved or anything, just a little wear and tear and we decided it's a good time to give her a break, and they gave her plenty of time. I was going to give her about 60 days or so and we ended up giving her about 120 days, so it worked out great."
BILL SPAWR, ISMENE, 2-1 FAVORITE, SECOND: "He (Mike Smith) said she's better on the dirt."
JOHN HARRIS OF HARRIS FARMS, INC, OWNER OF BENCH GLORY, WINNER: "She's going strong. It's always a tough deal in today's world but you want to try to give every horse every opportunity. We thought we could stop on her and breed her but then we thought we'd bring her back and if she goes alright we'll keep her going, she did, and it turned out."
(Bench Glory is by Benchmark out of a Skywalker mare, do you still have her dam?)
"Yes, we do, Image of Glory. We have some foals out of her, she's been a really good mare. That's a good cross actually, Benchmarks and Skywalkers, somehow that cross really works. It worked for (Marty) Wygod (prominent Southern California owner/breeder) and I was paying attention, so I thought I would try it too."
(Some big change is in the wind here in So. Cal and I am sure you will be a big part of it, which is good news for all involved)
"Well, hopefully it's positive change. There's a lot to look forward to. It's a good place to stay, such a nice place to race, and raise horses. We just have to be positive about what we put together."
NOTES: This is trainer Sean McCarthy's first stakes win at Santa Anita. Winning owner/breeder John Harris is from Coalinga.

BEVERLY — Election Day might be next Tuesday, but an election that's more than a year away just got very interesting.
Former City Councilor Tim Flaherty said last night that he will run for mayor in 2011. When informed of Flaherty's decision, Mayor Bill Scanlon confirmed for the first time publicly that he will be running, too.
"I haven't announced, but I do intend to run," Scanlon said last night.
Flaherty has launched a "Flaherty for Mayor" website and said he will hold his campaign kickoff Nov. 18 at the Italian Community Center.
"I thought the time was right," Flaherty said. "It's right for my family at this time."
Flaherty, 43, served as an at-large city councilor for 12 years and three times topped the ballot to become City Council president.
He decided not to run for re-election last year but never ruled out a future run for mayor.
Scanlon, 70, is in the middle of a record eighth two-year term as mayor. He has won his last four elections with at least 59 percent of the vote since losing to Tom Crean in 2001.
Flaherty said he is looking forward to the challenge of taking on Scanlon.
"I think people are looking for fresh ideas," Flaherty said. "I think Beverly will have a clear, credible choice. This is not a negative campaign. It's about the experiences that I've had. I'm running because I want to make a difference, and I feel I have the experience to make that happen."
Scanlon said he has known "for some time" that Flaherty was interested in running for mayor. Asked his reaction to Flaherty's candidacy, Scanlon said, "I have no particular reaction."
Flaherty, a Beverly native, works as a funeral director at the Grondin Funeral Home. Before entering the funeral business 10 years ago, he was the youth director at the McPherson Youth Center and a local director for the North Shore YMCA.
Flaherty and his wife, Anne, a Beverly High School teacher, have four children, two at the high school and two at Briscoe Middle School.

Jason Bolton, assistant extension professor and food safety specialist at the University of Maine, was interviewed for the Bangor Daily News article "Local food 'incubators' could ease burden of regulation on Maine farmers, food producers." Bolton said food production incubators such as Coastal Farms and Food Inc. in Belfast, which offers cold and freezer storage space, kitchen and equipment rentals and food processing services, could easily be applied to other agricultural operations such as dairy or slaughtering. He said he expects to see more food incubators open in Maine as farmers and food producers seek larger markets.

Planningtorock | 27/08/14
Jam Rostron, Bolton-born, Berlin-based is welcomed to the Domino Publishing family. The artist behind the multimedia recording and performance project Planningtorock, her 2014 LP 'All Love's Legal' is both an extension of her previous work and a refinement and of its ideas and sonics. Planningtorock has always incorporated politics into her music, but this is by far her most explicitly political record yet. It follows 'W', which was released on DFA in 2011, and her 2006 debut album...

The story of Chief is one of two coasts. Though Evan Koga, Mike Moonves and brothers Danny and Michael Fujikawa were all born and raised as sons of Los Angeles, they left for New York University, worlds away. It was in New York that they first got to know one another as collaborators, rumbling through a number of semi-serious projects and solo ventures before feeling swept away by a small run of songs Koga had penned and presented to them. He had written them under the name Chief, a moniker the brothers Danny and Michael opted to keep the day...

Scott Huizenga named new budget officer
The City of Kansas City, Mo., is pleased to announce the appointment of Scott Huizenga as its budget officer within the Finance Department's Management and Budget Division. In this position, Huizenga will report to Randall J. Landes, finance director.
Huizenga will assume the duties and responsibilities for the day-to-day review, preparation and development of the City's annual budget on behalf of the city manager.

Okay as everyone knows, Golden Boy Promotions will go head to head with Top Rank Promotions on September 15th which will surely be a night to remember with Julio Cesar Chavez Jr looking to escape from the fact that he is his fathers son fighting Sergio Martinez who is trying to prove he is the best middleweight in the world and perhaps setup a fight with some of the biggest names in boxing and Josesito Lopez looking to cause his second upset of the year and prove he is an elite caliber fight against Canelo Alvarez who is trying to show he is a force to be reckoned with and setup fights with the best in boxing today.
I dont know who exactly is on the undercards but i'm sure they will be overall great cards with 2 scintillating endings.
My question is which card/fight will you watch? I along with my friends still haven't made this decision and really are drawn on which card/fight to watch?
Chavez Jr vs Martinez undercard:
Middleweights - Matthew Macklin (28-4, 19 KO) vs Joachim Alcine (33-2-1, 19 KO)
Super Featherweights - Roman Martinez (25-1-1, 16 KO) vs Miguel Beltran Jr (27-1, 17 KO)
Light Heavyweights - Mike Lee (10-0, 6 KO) vs TBA
Alvarez vs Lopez undercard:
Welterweights - Marcos Maidana (31-3, 28 KO) vs Jesus Soto-Karass (26-7-3, 17 KO)
Featherweights - Jhonny Gonzalez (52-7, 45 KO) vs Daniel Ponce de Leon (43-4, 35 KO)
Super Bantamweights - Abner Mares (24-0-1, 13 KO) vs TBA

To the editor:
I am writing to extend congratulations to Barbara Stavropoulos and Kathy Milbury of My Place By The Sea for receiving the Small Business Award for Rockport.
This honor is well deserved.
Two weeks ago, My Place By The Sea provided a wonderful event for the seniors at our senior center. They donated a delicious meal, entertainment, provided their waiters and an elegant atmosphere.
Their generosity to the Rockport Council on Aging is very much appreciated.
Thank you and congratulations!

Writer/producer Charles Kipps has written for Law & Order and Columbo, two of the longest running cop franchises ever, and is the recipient of an Emmy, a Peabody, and a Mystery Writers of America Edgar Award. This afternoon he presented this webinar. Obviously it's too late to participate in the live webinar, but you can add it to your wishlist to be notified when you can access the recorded webinar.
Charles has written features, both indie and studio, and his television credits include episodic and long form. He'll explain what helped take these scripts from his desk to the screen.
Unlike other webinars you may have attended, The Seven Traits of a Producible Script will not tell you how to write, rather it will show you how to take what you write and craft it into something industry professionals will recognize as a potential project.
Anyone who's seriously interested in taking their script to the screen should add this to their wishlist. He'll explain what keeps some scripts from going into production and what can cause films to go over budget.
- Takes you from Fade In to Fade Out, element by element, and explains how to supercharge your script for submission
- Make your screenplay more attractive in today's money-driven marketplace
- What you don't know about production and why it may be holding you back

Welcome to BlueFur's new blog series: Everyday Solutions! This monthly series will focus on quick and easy solutions for common problems experienced by website owners.
Whether you have a personal or corporate blog, there are two things that really matter: engagement and spam.
One is something you want to increase (engagement), and the other is something no one wants (spam). While many content management systems (CMS) come with a built-in comments feature, or built-in spam reduction capabilities, no CMS includes the measures to achieve the right balance of high engagement with low (or no) spam.
The solution to this problem is actually authenticated comments. Your visitors still have the opportunity to use pseudonyms, which many people value, but those hoping to boost their own profile get a very easy way to authenticate themselves and use their real names.
What is this magical tool that can help solve your conundrum? None other than Disqus.
Disqus solves the issues above by doing a few things:
- Allowing your visitors to register for their own Disqus account, which is also usable on thousands of popular sites like Bloomberg, the London Free Press, and MobileSyrup.
- Allow your visitors to comment using their Facebook, Google+, or Twitter account which makes it much easier for them to engage, instead of registering for an account only for your website.
- Disqus lets users choose a pseudonym, allowing them to comment while also protecting their identity, thus increasing engagement.
- To cut down on spam, you can require visitors to log in to an account of some kind, whether it's a Disqus, Facebook, Google+, or Twitter account. This means spambots have no way to access your website's default commenting system, almost entirely eliminating spam as a potential issue.
We won't talk about them here, but Disqus also gives you ways to monetize your content, promote your content, and automatically adapts its discussion system for mobile devices. You want your visitors to easily interact with your site no matter where they are, don't you?
One great thing about Disqus is that they offer a slew of integration options, including native plugins for popular content management systems and platforms like Drupal, Joomla, and WordPress. Disqus can also update the comments in real-time, allowing discussions to flow fluidly, which can increase the amount of time people spend on your website.
There are other, similar solutions to Disqus, which we'll take a look at another time. For now, just know that the default commenting systems can easily be replaced with something far more dynamic that can solve some real issues your for blog!

Softball Bested by No. 1 Florida
Related Links
GAINESVILLE, Fla. – Jacksonville University softball opened on Wednesday night at No. 1 Florida with a handful of great defensive plays, but Florida's bats were too much for the Dolphins, as the Gators won 6-0.
To start the game in the top of the first, Jacksonville (5-5) began strong as Victoria Brown and Karson Tuck reached base on singles to left and center, respectively, before a double-play ended the top half. In the bottom, Charli Bradshaw recorded a save in deep left while Sable Lee followed with a diving catch in center to end Florida's chances of scoring with two on. In the bottom of the second, Florida's Aubree Munro attempted a steal to second to stand in scoring position with two outs, but Brooke Smith's laser to Tuck at short stop ended the attempt and the inning.
In the circle, Brown (3-2) struck out four Gators in 5.1 innings on the mound, although seven Gators tallied hits, six crossed home plate and four walked. Cecile Gomez came in for relief in the bottom of the sixth and allowed just one hit.
Florida's Lauren Haeger (4-0) tossed the complete game, striking out seven and allowing four hits.
For Florida (12-0), Taylore Fuller put the Gators on the board in the bottom of the third with a solo shot to center and Florida scored every inning to follow, scoring one in the fourth, two in the fifth and two in the sixth, including Haeger's two-RBI home run to center to plate Justine McLean from second in the fifth.
At the plate for Jacksonville, Brown, Tuck, Bradshaw and Codi Kelly each tallied one hit.
Next, Jacksonville will host Southern Illinois, Savannah State, UIC, Bethune-Cookman and Mount St. Mary's in its second straight home tournament Feb. 21-23 at the JU Softball Complex.

Did you mean "pedestrian" as in "student?" I am very worried, and updates would be greatly appreciated by all.
on Feb 8, 2013 at 11:29 pm
I hope that the person is not a bullied student.
Whoever he/she is, I feel sorry.
Also I wonder what happened to a guard there?
I sometimes see the guard company car, but no one is around the crossing at E. Charleston, at least.

I agree with Student. It would be nice to have an update as to whether the person was an adolescent or an adult. Thank you.

Arizona Cardinals running back Beanie Wells apparently suffered a hamstring injury during practice Thursday.
According to Kent Somers of AZCentral.com, Wells is listed as limited on the injury report. It is unknown yet whether or not the RB will be available for this weekend's game against the Seattle Seahawks.
Wells has gained 183 yards on 32 carries in two games, his most productive efforts in consecutive games over his three-year career. At 5.7 yards per carry, there have been concerns that the Cardinals haven't been giving Wells the ball consistently, though that might be a secondary issue at the moment.
Kevin Kolb has stated that he would like more of the responsibility placed into Beanie's hands and that running allows the Cardinals to, "impose their will."
Wells was drafted 31st overall by the Arizona Cardinals in the 2009 NFL Draft. Last season, he rushed for 397 yards on 116 attempts.

Rupert in Bogie FinalGrint
As part of Red Nose Day in the UK, Rupert Grint (Ron Weasley) is running around shouting "bogies!" as loud as he can. We are so proud. :)
Rupert took part in the special Pro Celeb Bogies event to raise money for Comic Relief, winning a semifinal on Monday, and is competing right now (Red Nose Night in the UK) in the final on BBC 1. Reports from readers say he is walking around Madam Tussaud's with presenters Dick and Dom, playing the bogey game, where one person shouts "Bogies" and the next person has to shout it louder - and louder - and louder - and louder.. check the volume on your TV sets so you don't go deaf.
Video here, from Milly. WMV, 8.4MB.
(NonUK people..."bogies" are the American equivalent of..."boogers." We think Ron would find this amusing, too.)

Bellator fighter Toby Imada has been announced for the June 5 show for Japan's Shootboxing organization. Shootboxing is essentially a kickboxing organization, although they also allow throws and standing submissions (so the flying inverted triangle would be good to go). Imada made his Shootboxing debut last year as a late replacement in the company's prestigious S-Cup tournament. There, he pulled off a massive upset, defeating reigning champion and top 5 kickboxer Andy Souwer via decision before losing in the finals to Buakaw Por. Pramuk. Imada will face Shootboxing star Hiroki Shishido on the 5th. Photo courtesy of Bellator. HT: HeadKickLegend
