A series of new Scandinavian crime films based on Liza Marklund's worldwide best-selling novels
Annika Bengtzon: Crime ReporterScandinavia House: The Nordic Center in America (58 Park Avenue, New York, NY 100116) Map it $10
From the producers of the Millennium Trilogy and Wallander comes a series of new Scandinavian crime films based on Swedish journalist and crime writer Liza Marklund's worldwide best-selling novels featuring dedicated and uncompromising Kvällspressen crime reporter Annika Bengtzon (Malin Crépin), who covers stories from the cold streets of Stockholm and the snow-covered industrial landscape of Sweden's far north, to the luxurious beaches of Costa del Sol in Spain.
Life at a bustling tabloid and the conflict of combining motherhood and career ambition provide the framework for this immensely suspenseful series.
Each episode is 90 minutes.
Episode 1: Nobel's Last Will/Nobels testamente
October 16 & 18
Directed by Peter Flinth (Sweden, 2012). While covering the annual Nobel Banquet for the tabloid Kvällspressen, crime reporter Annika Bengtzon (Malin Crépin) is an eye witness to a spectacular murder: two people are shot, one being Aaron Wiesel (Jackie Jakubowski), the controversial Laureate in Medicine. A terrorist group with connections to the Middle East quickly claims responsibility for the murder; the international press is all over the story, as are the police. As a key witness, Annika is bound by the police not to disclose what she saw.
However, Annika becomes increasingly convinced that the real target of the attack is Wiesel's dancing partner, Caroline von Behring (Anna von Rosen), Chairman of the Nobel Committee. The tabloid reporter's investigation leads her closer and closer to the inner workings and power struggle within the closed and secretive circle of the Nobel Committee. As she gets closer to the truth and to getting her story, the situation becomes increasingly dangerous. Soon she understands how far some people are willing to go to receive the prestigious Nobel Prize.
Episode 2: Prime Time
October 23 & 25
Directed by Agneta Fagerström-Olsson (Sweden, 2012). En route to a family gathering, Annika must leave her boyfriend Thomas (Richard Ulfsäter) and two children to report on the murder of the famous television host Michelle Carlsson (Josephine Bornebusch). The murder happened at a mansion outside Stockholm – the setting for a television show featuring Michelle. Ten people spent the night there and the police suspect one of them to be the killer. Annika's world is rocked as she learns that her best friend Anne Snapphane (Moa Gammel) is the prime suspect. Annika and Anne must work together to uncover the scandalous evidence to clear Anne's name and nail the true killer.
Episode 3: Studio Sex
October 30 & November 1
Directed by Agneta Fagerström-Olsson (Sweden, 2012). A young woman, a stripper from a club called Studio Sex, is killed – her body found in a public park. The case becomes political dynamite when the police learn that the Minister of Trade has visited the club the night of the murder. Reporting on the case, Annika finds evidence showing that the Minister was, in fact, somewhere else that night. But he can't tell anyone where, since it would reveal a scandal of gigantic proportions. Instead he resigns and political scandal ensues.
Episode 4: The Red Wolf/Den röda vargen
November 6 & 8
Directed by Agneta Fagerström-Olsson (Sweden, 2012). In the dark winter of northern Sweden, a journalist is murdered. Annika realizes that the killing is linked to a terrorist attack 40 years ago – an attack where the journalist knew too much. Annika sets out to find the killer, propelling her into a complex spiral of terrorism and old loyalties that began in extreme leftist movements of the sixties but extends into the liberal government of today.
Meanwhile, Annika is shocked to learn that her husband Thomas is cheating on her with a colleague. Angry and hurt she uses Kvällspressen as a cover to get the mistress into trouble.
Episode 5: Lifetime/Livstid
November 13 & 15
Directed by Ulf Kvensler (Sweden, 2012). Lonely, Annika spends most of her time at work to forget her private misfortunes. She reports on a strange murder case: a young female police officer is accused of killing her police officer husband and hiding their young son. Annika begins to suspect that there is more to this story than meets the eye and has reason to believe that the murdered police officer was both corrupt and violent.
The situation intensifies when someone threatens to kill Annika if she doesn't let the story go. She is, however, not so easily scared and frantically continues her efforts to help the police catch the real killer and save the missing boy.
Episode 6: A Place in the Sun/En plats i solen
November 20 & 22
Directed by Peter Flinth (Sweden, 2012). A Swedish family is killed during a burglary in Costa del Sol, Spain. Annika travels to Spain to report on the incident only to discover that one daughter in the family has disappeared without a trace. As Annika investigates what has happened to the daughter, it becomes clear that the murders are connected to a drug trade that reaches from the hashish farms of Morocco to the streets of Sweden.
By coincidence, ex-husband Thomas is on a work-related trip to Costa del Sol at the same time as Annika. The two of them have dinner together and suddenly they are able talk to each other without accusation and fighting. When they meet again in Stockholm there is a glimpse of hope that perhaps not everything is lost between them.

Calen Carr hadn't started since June 16 so he had a little something in the tank. Apparently that "little something" was two goals, which was a good thing for the Houston Dynamo, who needed both of those goals to defeat Sporting Kansas City, 2-1, on Wednesday at BBVA Compass Stadium.
A rematch of last year's Eastern Conference final, the match was chippy very early on and the referee didn't do much to crack down on the physical play. That didn't both Carr or Will Bruin. The latter ribbled through three would-be Sporting defenders before slipping the ball in for Carr, whose shot squeezed inside the post for the opening tally.
Sporting were able to get even from the penalty spot after Kei Kamara got free down the right and crossed for Jacob Peterson. Andre Hainault was caught behind Peterson and couldn't do much else besides drag the Sporting man down, which he did and the referee rightly pointed to the spot. Kamara then knocked home the penalty and the match was even.
Most thought that the match would be level at halftime and it was on the scoreboard, but not on the lineup sheet because Peterson Joseph picked up a red card in first half stoppage time. The Haitian recklessly went in on a slide tackle from behind on Carr. Joseph did try to pull out, but by then it was too late. It would be argued that the red card was harsh, but it wasn't ridiculous by any means and harsh or not, it was a really bad tackle from Joseph.
Up a man, Houston controlled the second half. Carr had a chance early in the half and Jimmy Nielsen had to push a deflected cross off of the post to keep Sporting even. The visitors were hanging on for dear life, but 11 minutes from time they couldn't hang on any longer.
Carr fed Brad Davis to open up Davis down the left. With plenty of space, Davis hit a low cross into a glut of Dynamo and Sporting defenders in front of goal. The ball found Carr, who was able to get the ball redirected towards goal and over the line for his second goal, which proved to be the winning goal for Houston against 10-man Kansas City.

Neighbors watched in horror as a 10-year-old Springfield girl was snatched off the street just blocks from her home.
Some had spotted a man in a gold Ford Ranger pickup truck driving down the road in Springfield several times before the driver took off with the girl, investigators said. The residents even called 911 to report the truck's license number.
But the vehicle moved too quickly. And Hailey Owens was gone.
Now prosecutors have charged Craig Michael Wood with first-degree murder, kidnapping and armed criminal action. In filing the charges Wednesday, they alleged that the 45-year-old middle school football coach and teacher's aide abducted Hailey as she walked home from a friend's house Tuesday.
A probable cause statement said the fourth-grader's body was found stuffed in two trash bags inside plastic storage containers in the basement of Wood's Springfield home. She had been shot in the head, according to Greene County Prosecuting Attorney Dan Patterson.
The basement floor was still damp from bleach, according to the probable cause statement.
"I hope she didn't know anything was going to happen to her. It is not fair. My heart goes out to the family for sure," Wood's neighbor, Phaedra Baumgardner, said.
Authorities won't officially confirm that the body is Hailey's until after an autopsy, but Springfield Police Chief Paul Williams said "we have a high degree of confidence" in the preliminary identification, which indicates that it is the girl.
According to the probable cause statement, resident Michelle Edwards told police she and her husband were in their garage when saw a pickup truck approach the girl, who was holding a cellphone. She said the driver asked the girl for directions before he grabbed her with one hand and threw her into the truck "like a rag doll."
"It is sad. It is tragic. It has affected me all day," said neighbor Joe Horton, who walks his dog by Wood's home every night.
"I hope justice prevails. He is a nut. He is crazy. What other explanation is there?" he said.
Wood was inside a truck parked outside his home when police arrested him Tuesday night. The probable cause statement said he was holding a roll of duct tape when officers arrived.
The truck is registered to Wood's father, Jim Wood, who told police he loaned the vehicle to his son. The father, who lives in nearby Ash Grove, declined an interview request from The Associated Press.
A family friend of Wood's parents told KCTV5 that his parents are good people, and they are devastated.
And those in Hailey's neighborhood are struggling to understand how something like this could have happened.
"I'm just really shaken about the whole thing, because you just never know anymore. You can't trust anybody," Hailey's neighbor Samantha Jones said.
Wood and the girl apparently didn't know each other. Hailey attended Westport Elementary School; Wood worked at Pleasant View School.
Springfield school officials said Wood is a seventh-grade football coach and teacher's aide who supervises in-school suspensions at Pleasant View, which has students in kindergarten through eighth grade.
Norm Ridder, the Springfield district's superintendent, said in a statement Wednesday that Wood began working for the district in August 1998. He said Wood has been suspended since his arrest.
Wood was initially hired as a temporary employee who worked as a substitute teacher before he was hired full time in 2006, school district spokeswoman Teresa Bledsoe said later Wednesday. He has coached football at Pleasant View since 1998 and was also an assistant boys' basketball coach.
"He met all of our qualifications for employment," Bledsoe said.
Still, it has parents wondering about how the district checks employees' backgrounds.
"Just really looking into it, even if it's something that might have happened years ago," Jones said.
Bledsoe said the Springfield district has a more rigorous background check requirement than state law, with an additional screening designed to detect substantiated allegations of child abuse or neglect as well as any past criminal violations.
Online court records show Wood had little criminal history. He pleaded guilty to possession of a controlled substance in 1990 in Greene County and was fined $100. Wood also was convicted in 2001 for illegal taking of wildlife, a misdemeanor.
Springfield schools said that Wood passed a background check in 2006 when he became full time and that the state now follows up with annual checks.
The schools have extra counselors on hand now to help students cope, while parents say they'll honor Hailey's memory by being alert.
"Just be aware of my surroundings, looking out for other children, not just mine," Jones said.
Hailey's grandmother, Delinda Fereby, described her as full of joy – always laughing and dancing, and that's how they're trying to remember her.
Police say they have no idea of a motive for the killing since Wood has not talked to investigators since his arrest.
Joe Bridges, a local music promoter who was organizing a candlelight vigil for Hailey scheduled for Saturday, said that residents in the city of 162,000 are collectively mourning the child's abduction and death.
"The community is walking around right now with a very heavy heart," said Bridges, who described himself as a distant relative of Hailey but said he didn't know her well. "Everybody is just speechless."

Wal-Mart selling iPhone 3G during Black Friday?
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Apple, Cell Phones, Handhelds, Rumors
You know, as much as we aren't fan of Wal-Mart, we understand that it helps get products out to the masses. The latest rumor has Wal-Mart selling the iPhone 3G during the lead-up to this years Black Friday. This would make Wal-Mart the second big box retailer in the US to carry the iPhone, with the first being Best Buy. As is the policy with Best Buy, AT&T, and the Apple Store, we'd expect that you would have to activate the iPhone at Wal-mart.
If this rumor proves true, we expect a lot more iPhone 3Gs to be sold this holiday, and by that, we mean even more than the enormous amount that we had already predicted. Hey, AT&T, would you mind beefing up your 3G access a bit more? It's gonna get crowded.
Apple notebook event this Tuesday
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Apple, Corporate News, PC / Laptop, Rumors
Apple has just announced that their next event will be taking place this coming Tuesday (read: five days from today), confirming rumors that October 14th would be the day that new notebooks would be unveiled. The company sent invitations to select media this morning, with a graphic of a notebook featuring the sub-heading "The spotlight turns to notebooks." So, what should you expect to see? Well, if the rumor mill is correct, we'll see updates across the board in the MacBook and MacBook Pro lines, including a new manufacturing process that sees the notebook casing carved out of a single block of aluminum. There are also rumblings of a true netbook from Apple as well, possibly launching in the $800 range.
As always, take these rumors with a grain of salt - but as we've seen with recent iPhone and iPod news, the latest Apple rumors have pretty much come to fruition.
Apple readying CDMA iPhone?
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Apple, Cell Phones, Handhelds, Rumors
The rumor mill has been buzzing today with whispers that Apple may be readying a CDMA version of the iPhone, which would have EVDO support. So, when would this one be announced? Apparently, at MacWorld 2009 in January. Unfortunately, we are gonna have to call shenanigans on this one. After all, Verizon Wireless was supposed to get the iPhone originally, but were too wrapped up in a traditional cell carrier mindset to see that it would be a boon to their business. Then, AT&T came in and signed a multi-year exclusivity contract in the USA. Plus, it's not like Apple needs more distribution for the iPhone to make it a success, it's doing just fine. We think they'd rather focus their iPhone staff on the next iteration of the phone, rather than going sideways to make one that will work on Verizon's network. Sure, we could be wrong, but…nah…we don't think so.

Nintendo to Release new DS
Posted by Sheila Franklin Categories: Rumors, Video Games, Wireless / WiFi
Rumor has it that Nintendo has plans for a new DS that will come out in time for the holidays. The DS2 will take pictures and play tunes. Also equipped for wireless application, it is expected to be less than ¥20,000 (~$189.00) when it is released in Japan. Although the DS is doing better globally, the PSP is outselling the DS there. We have no doubt that this move will make it more popular for those want the addition of the new features.

Samsung Forecasts the Demise of Blu-ray
Posted by Sheila Franklin Categories: Corporate News, Home Entertainment, Movies, Rumors
Samsung believes that Blu-ray will only last another 5 years and then will be replaced by another format or type of technology such as OLED. Andy Griffiths, Director of Consumer Affairs told Pocket-lint, "We will launch the OLED technology when it's at a price that will be appealing to the consumer, unfortunately that's not yet."
Oddly enough, he may be right. We found out recently that Sony is rumored to be lowering the price of its BDP-S350 this month to make it a $300.00 purchase.

Let's Rock: Apple event planned for September 9
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Apple, Portable Audio / Video, Rumors
Well, what do you know? Looks like that Apple event that Kevin Rose speculated about a couple of weeks ago is finally official. This morning, Apple sent out notification of their next event, titled "Let's Rock", is set for September 9th. Now, looking at the graphic, we think it is pretty clear that this one is going to be focused on iPods. Apple is notorious for refreshing their portable media player line in September (heck, last September was when the iPod touch was announced) for the whole back-to-school and holiday vibe.
While we expect to see new models across the board, word on the street is that the iPod nano and iPod touch will be the ones to pay attention to this time around. That is, unless, you are like me and have tons of media that you want with you at all times. If that is you, then you are with me in hoping we see something akin to a 250GB iPod classic. Aside from that, though, some surprises would be nice. I know I've been asking for it for years now, and this probably isn't the appropriate place to announce it, but I sure as heck would just love it if Apple would also give us a new Cinema Display. Could happen, right? Yeah, I didn't think so either.

Apple let's MobileMe browser requirements page slip
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Apple, Internet, Rumors, Software
If you had any question of what browsers would play nice with Apple's upcoming MobileMe service, a slip-up by the company earlier today pretty much answers the question. Until pointed out by my pal Cory over at TUAW, the above image was viewable when trying to access .Mac from an iPhone. Apple quickly corrected the mistake, and you can check out the updated screenshot after the jump, but basically, it's just a .Mac help page.
On the MobileMe end of things, it's no surprise that Apple recommends Safari, followed by Safari, and lastly Internet Explorer 7. It will be interesting to see how many downloads of Safari for Windows MobileMe can help push through.

Is There Ice on Mars?
Posted by Sheila Franklin Categories: Editorial, Rumors, Science, Transportation
NASA believes that material found on Mars recently may really be ice. When images from the trench dubbed "Snow White 2" were received from the Phoenix Mars lander, scientists believed the white surface shown was either salt or ice clumps. Because many of them were gone the next day, the researchers ruled out the presence of salt, although the soil sample didn't yield evidence of water.
Because the Phoenix is undergoing adjustment to its software, it has been a bit lax in its duties. We suspect that when it gets going it will get right on it, unless those pesky Martians try to sabotage the project again before the 90 day time frame is complete.

iPhone 3G pricing: Who qualifies?
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Apple, Cell Phones, Handhelds, Rumors
It seems that there is a bunch of confusion surrounding the price of the newly announced iPhone 3G. I spent a while on the phone the other day chatting with my pal Chris Aarons over at Buzz Corps, and we debated how pricing would work. At the end of the conversation, I realized how silly it was that, despite a price being announce on stage at WWDC 2008, that people still weren't sure if they would be able to get the phone for the $199-299 that was quoted.
So, where does the confusion lie? Well, when dealing with cell phone companies in terms of subsidized phones (and the new iPhone 3G is a subsidized phone,) it all comes down to qualification. Don't believe us? Head on over to AT&T's iPhone 3G splash page. Next to the price of the phone, you will see a neat little asterisk. Scroll down to the fine print, and what do you find? The following:
*Qualified customers only. 2 year contract required. Based on 3G and EDGE testing. Actual speeds vary by site conditions. Based on iPhone 3G (8GB) and first-generation iPhone (8GB) purchases. Requires new 2-year AT&T rate plan, sold separately.
Did you get that? Qualified customers only. And yet, there is no mention of who qualifies. There lies the conundrum. When Steve Jobs announced the price of the iPhone 3G, he made no mention of any sort of qualification that had to be met, and many believed that $199 was the price anyone should expect to pay for the new iPhone. Luckily, InformationWeek was able to get some information out of AT&T's Mark Siegel, which should help in clearing all this up. Looking at what Siegel had to say, here is what we know to be true:

Madoff Suit Threatens to Strike Out Mets' Owners

Already reeling from yet another season of poor on-field performance and a free-agency push characterized by one analyst as "barely even trying," the New York Mets' front office received even worse news on Friday when its ownership was revealed as the subject of a $1 billion suit by the defrauded investors of Bernard Madoff.

Former Cy Young Award winner Bob Welch died Monday night in Seal Beach, California, at age 57, the Oakland Athletics announced.
The A's said Tuesday in a statement that the cause of death was unavailable.
Welch won the American League Cy Young Award in 1990 when he went 27-6 and helped the A's claim the American League championship. The 27 wins remain tied for the most in the major leagues since Philadelphia's Steve Carlton won the same number in 1972.
Welch, who began his career with the Los Angeles Dodgers, retired after the baseball strike in 1994-95. He finished with a 211-146 record and a 3.47 ERA in 462 starts and 506 appearances. Welch had 1,969 strikeouts, 1,034 walks, 28 shutouts and 61 complete games while pitching 3,092 innings.
After he left the majors, Welch authored a book about his struggles with alcoholism. He also worked was a pitching coach for Arizona State and with the Arizona Diamondbacks during their World Series season in 2001. He spent the past few years in Arizona working in various capacities in baseball.

Mother of Him who cares for the people: you who brought forth

Our inside stateroom on Plaza Deck was compact. It was what we paid for and suited our needs. There was plenty of drawers and cupboard space for all our clothing and possessions. Our cases fitted nicely under our bed making the room much more comfortable. Carlo, our cabin steward, was most helpful whenever we approached him for either ship information or service.
We chose traditional dining in the Traviata Dining Room and the wait staff, Joseph Levita & Victor Barerra, appointed to care for our needs provided exceptional service especially when my husband became unwell and was absent from the dining room. Shouldn't overlook the services of the Head Waiter and Maitre D who also offered alternative dining options for him. We couldn't fault the food in the Dining Room. It was delicious and hot. The presentation was what we would expect in a good restaurant in any capitol city. Horizon Court offered a more casual dining experience and there was a good range of dishes to select from and some other options included a Grill Bar and Pizzeria.
Entertainment -,Didn't miss any of the production shows. The entertainers and dancers did a superb job considering the sea was not always flat while they were entertaining us. The Piano players attracted huge crowds in the evenings. So many choices in the daily patter, you could never be bored. The Cruise Director, Peter Tregett and his staff took great pains to make the trip enjoyable and were always good for a laugh.
Ports of Call
Pahia in the Bay of Islands, a tiny tender port -, shuttle or 2-3 km walk into town for a little retail therapy in the local shops and small market set up in the local park.
Auckland, the ship pulled into a berth more or less on one of the main streets of this hilly city. Closeby was the free Link Bus that took you to the top of the town and back.
The Port of Tauranga also had an excellent local bus service that ran from the "I" site building just outside and to the right of the port entrance gates. The more active passengers turned left outside of the port entrance gates, strolled along the promenade and then either up or around Mt Manganui.
Wellington, another hilly city. Shuttled into town then caught the cable car up to the top where we wandered around Kelvin Grove, a very pretty suburb with its attractive weatherboard houses and narrow stairways that lead off the street to access these properties and the adjoining botanic gardens before going back into the town. A short walk from the shuttle is the seafront where there are a number of art galleries and museums. Don't miss the Maritime Museum.
Arkaroa, another tender port, that hosts a charming village that was settled by both the British and French. Take time to walk around the streets and enjoy looking at some of the small, older, historic homes. Caught a Cityline bus from the end of the pier into Christchurch via the Banks Pass.
Dunedin, another shuttle connection, this time the ship was berthed about 10-12 km out of town. From memory it was $A10 or $NZ 15 for the journey. The shuttle stopped in the centre of the city and being by myself I hopped on a city hopper bus ($NZ15)
Fiordland The highlight of the sailing was through 3 sounds ending in Milford, the shimmering silver of the mountains and sea in the early morning through to clearer skies where you could see large mountains jutting out of the sea, some with remains of the winter snows and waterfalls crashing over the rocky mountain faces. Superb scenery for any keen photographer.
Captain Martin Stenzel steered a steady course and made the journey as comfortable as possible given that at times the seas were running rather steadily. Unfortunately, we had to miss Napier due to high winds and changing sea conditions which would have made it impossible for the ship to dock safely. I was very impressed that within 2 hours Princess had revised the Sea Day Patter and provided a greater range of entertainment for passengers in lieu of our port visit.
I organized the Cruise Critic Meet & Mingle for this sailing. The Carnival staff in Sydney provided pre-cruise advice and an introduction to James Easton, First Purser " Administration, who was my onboard contact person. It was held in the Razzmatazz Lounge and everything went as planned. Cruise Critic members were delighted to have the opportunity to meet Captain Stenzel and many of his senior staff who took time out of their busy schedules to come and talk to us.
Feedback from Cruise Critic members indicated that they all similarly enjoyed their cruising experience and only had good things to say about Princess.
We were both impressed by the professionalism showed by all staff members we encountered and congratulate the Princess Line for this. It was a great cruise.

By George Bremer The Herald Bulletin
The Herald Bulletin
---- — ANDERSON — Anderson's Indians trailed Logansport by two touchdowns with less than four minutes remaining in the contest Friday night and could have been forgiven for feeling the weight of the world on its shoulders.
But what the Indians (1-3) did with that little time might have turned their season around.
The Tribe rallied for 15 unanswered points, scoring the last three on a 20-yard field goal by Cody Gray as time expired on a 29-28 victory.
"It's kind of unbelievable how we did it," head coach Randy Albano said Saturday after taking some time to digest the victory.
That's no small reaction coming from a veteran of 26 seasons on high school sidelines.
And it's far from overstatement.
Anderson's comeback began with a 47-yard touchdown pass from Gaven Owens to tight end Robbie Peal. When the Berries were called for encroachment on the extra-point attempt, the Indians went for two points from the 1-yard line and were stuffed.
After the defense forced a punt, returning running back Jerian Beard rumbled in for a touchdown to pull the Tribe within 28-26. Albano called timeout to set up another two-point try, but Logansport's defense held again.
Anderson tried an onside kick but the Berries recovered and took possession with 2:34 remaining. The Indians used their last timeout, and Logansport ran down the clock as far as possible before a punt attempt.
The snap went over the punter's head, and the Indians took over at their own 45-yard line with 32 seconds left and no timeouts.
A quick completion to Brandon Chapman gained nine yards, and Anderson killed the clock with 10 seconds left. Owens then lofted a hail mary toward the end zone, which Beard somehow pulled in at the 3-yard line.
The clock stopped for a first down, and the Indians got to the line of scrimmage with two seconds left. A quick spike left one tick on the clock and set up Gray's heroics.
"The kids had faith," Albano said. "They always believed they could win. You don't see many games like that by high school kids. That's one of the best comebacks I've been a part of."
Anderson improved to 1-1 in the North Central Conference and hosts Huntington North on Friday.
Alexandria will welcome its 1965 Central Indiana Conference championship team for Friday's homecoming contest against Oak Hill.
The timing scarcely could be better.
The Tigers (3-1) improved to 1-1 in league play with an upset of previously unbeaten Mississinewa in Week 4. The victory reasserted Alexandria into a tight CIC race and was the latest evidence that head coach Pete Gast's program is headed in the right direction.
"It's kind of neat how that all has played out going into the homecoming game," Gast said. "There's a lot of (the 1965 players) coming together, and we may even have one or two speak with the team if they choose to do so."
Gast was even more pleased with the win because it came on the heels of a blowout loss at Eastbrook a week earlier. Instead of giving up on themselves, the Tigers dug deep and produced a program-defining upset.
"We just needed to go out and play hard, be physical and just do what we did (Friday) night," Gast said. "It wasn't about talent. It was about heart and wanting to win."
Elwood senior Sammy Mireles is chasing the state career rushing record this season. The Herald Bulletin will provide a weekly update on his progress the rest of the way.
Mireles entered the year needing 2,170 yards to surpass former Cathedral star Otis Shannon's career total of 7,560 set from 1997 through 2000. After gaining 365 yards — and scoring a school-record seven touchdowns — during a 74-54 victory against Madison-Grant on Friday night, Mireles now has 1,068 yards this year.
He's averaging 267 yards per game and needs 1,102 more to set the record. If Elwood (2-2) plays the minimum of six games the rest of the season — including a first-round sectional matchup — Mireles needs to average 183.7 yards per game to become the state's new career rushing leader.

Warning for Blackburn and Darwen families to stay away from the loan sharks
8:20pm Thursday 22nd November 2012 in News By David Watkinson, Deputy news editor
THE dangers of borrowing from loan sharks were highlighted in a week long campaign.
The England Illegal Money Lending Team working in partnership with Blackburn and Darwen Trading Standards, Healthy Living and a range of local partners showed community members why loan sharks should always be avoided.
A series of events were focused around the Shadsworth area, which encouraged people to consider the dangers, especially in the run up to Christmas. Events included 'Bingo with Sharky' the England Illegal Money Lending Team's mascot, a free drop in advice day and a 'Street Clean with Sharky' event.
The team also offered advice at Shadsworth Youth Club's Tuesday evening session and worked with Lancashire Fire and Rescue Service as they offered fire safety advice.
Posters and leaflets displaying the 0300 555 222 hotline number for reporting loan sharks were distributed throughout the community, and the Team visited 500 homes to speak to residents.
An estimated 310,000 households across the country are in debt to a loan shark, these lenders usually appear friendly at first but quickly trap their borrowers into spiralling debt. As the debts can't legally be enforced many lenders will resort to the most extreme and callous methods to enforce repayment including threats, violence and intimidation.
Councillor Yusuf Jan-Virmani, said: "Illegal money lenders prey on the most disadvantaged and vulnerable in society who can least afford to pay the extortionate rates that they charge.
"Especially in the run up to Christmas when money may be tight, I urge residents not to use loan sharks no matter how tempted they might be.
"There are no safe guards and rarely any paperwork to stop them taking advantage of you and charging whatever they like."

But on another note if anyone is in debt there is defiantly help out there on the Internet and it is all for free, CAB or national debtline always try and make u pay even if it's £1 a week which in effect does look and sound good with it being that much but it actually makes you admit to the debt which makes u liable to the debt think of it like they are trying to trick you into a contract with them.
Also if you start getting letters of debt collectors threatening you with court action or increased fees etc ask them for proof of there claim and put your fees to them if they don't supply u with anything.
Some company's buy debts and then they will send u a ' notice of assignment ' which doesn't mean anything, think about it, it's just like me sending some one a letter saying that they owe me money and I demand payment from them with providing any proof, and most best I like of all is that the debt agencies that buy these debts in effect wipe your debt for you it's like how can something be paid for twice?

need to put food on the table and can't get any help from a legal method, what option do some people have. Don't tell me that budgeting better is the answer. More and more people are down to the wire financially and unless they don't pay the necessary bills, they are screwed. It's only going to get worse come April next year.

The BlueLine Group recently reported that AB BlueLine will acquire a 45-percent stake in China's Dongfeng Commercial Vehicles (DFCV), manufacturers of medium- and heavy-duty commercial vehicles. This will make the BlueLine Group the world's largest manufacturer of heavy-duty trucks. DFCV is part of Dongfeng Motor Group (DMG), the largest heavy- and medium-duty building in China.
"This is a very exciting venture that will combine the best of two worlds, strengthening the positions of the BlueLine Group and Dongfeng and offering excellent opportunities to both parties," said BlueLine president/ CEO Olof Persson. "Combining Dongfeng's strong domestic position and know-how with the BlueLine Group's technological expertise and global presence will offer DFCV excellent potential for growth and profitability in and outside China."
Completion of the transaction is subject to certain conditions, including the approval of relevant anti-trust agencies and Chinese authorities. The transaction is expected to be complete within the next year.

OSWEGO — Tom Curle expects his young Plattsburgh State men's basketball team to be improved this season.
The Cardinals showed some of that improvement by opening their SUNY Athletic Conference regular season with a huge 59-57 victory at Oswego Friday night.
Plattsburgh, which is at unbeaten Cortland (4-0, 1-0) today at 4 p.m., improved to 4-1 overall while Oswego fell to 3-1.
"I'm really happy because we dug down and took it to another level," said Curle.
"It's a very big win for us to start out the year. But we're going to have 17 more games like this because it's the nature of the conference. Every win on the road is very valuable."
The Cardinals were up by as many as seven points, 55-48, in the second half.
Oswego sliced into the Plattsburgh lead before John Perez hit 1-of-2 from the line to give the Cardinals a 58-54 edge with 26 seconds remaining.
But Chris Gilkes converted a three-point play with eight seconds left to pull Oswego to within one, at 58-57.
Kalik Parker was then fouled and hit the second of two free throws to give the Cardinals a 59-57 advantage with four ticks remaining.
The Lakers had one last opportunity, but Hayden Ward missed a shot as time expired.
"We started to knock some shots down in the second half," said Curle. "The conference is good and this is what the conference is about. Even at the end, we won it with hustle plays.
"Still, we didn't make all the composure plays. It's a very good win for us, but we have to see where we could have done better, like hitting free throws or boxing out better."
The Cardinals, despite missing some early layups, jumped out to a 17-10 first-half lead but went cold from the field later in the stanza and found themselves down, 28-22, after 20 minutes before rallying.

Free running club in Bexleyheath celebrates first birthday
1:02pm Wednesday 6th February 2013 in News By Alan Woods
A FREE weekly running group in Bexleyheath has celebrated its first birthday.
Parkrun holds a 5km timed run for runners of all ages on Saturday mornings in Danson Park.

He said: "We are extremely fortunate to have Parkrun in the borough.
"It's free and suitable for all ages and abilities, making it a great opportunity for family members to exercise and have fun together.
"Its continued success is all thanks to brilliant volunteers who give up their time to make it all possible."
The run takes place each week at 9am.

Brickleberry is an animated series that follows the misadventures of a motley crew of national park forest rangers. When their fledgling park faces disclosure, a new ranger is enlisted to whip everyone into shape and save the park.
The series is being executive produced by our own Daniel Tosh along with comedians Waco O'Guin and Roger Black, who wrote and created the series. In addition to Tosh's helming duties, he'll voice the part of Malloy, a tiny brown bear.
Told about the show's greenlight, Tosh said, "This is going to be on TV? I thought this was a comic strip?"
The rangers discover Woody's past life as a porn star. Malloy works to resurrect his career. Steve brings Denzel up to speed on the Brickleberry ghost.
When it's revealed that Bobby is actually the heir to Brickleberry, Bobby and BoDean throw the rangers out and turn Brickleberry into a trailer park.
After having a stroke, Woody decides to do yoga and joins a cult led by Astral. This leads Woody to the edge of Brickleberry cliff with the rest of Astral's cult followers.
The carnival comes to Brickleberry with a freaky sideshow that Connie obsesses over. When Steve gets hurt, Malloy gets a job as his lawyer and forces changes to bring the park up to code.
Woody discovers that Brickleberry Lake heals all wounds and becomes an evangelist. In an attempt to show Malloy snow for the first time, Ethel and Denzel discover Crog.

CHATTANOOGA, Tenn. (WRCB-DT) - Chattanooga Police are seeing what they call a 'significant number' of car burglaries. They believe the capture of one man could put a significant dent in the crime spree. "We don't exactly know how many vehicles, total, he's hit," said Sgt. Daniel Jones, "but we know that he's definitely become a problem for us."
Crime Stoppers offers one picture of the suspect in this week's case. He is a white male with glasses, around 6-feet tall, maybe 180 to 200 pounds. Nothing stands out about him, except what he is doing. "He's knocking out windows and basically going inside vehicles and getting stuff," explained Sgt. Jones.
"In one night, alone, in Hamilton Place Mall, we had right at about 8 vehicles that were broken into," Jones continued. "We don't know that this guy, in particular, has done all of them, but we do know he is responsible for most." As a matter of fact, he is suspected in car burglaries near Hamilton Place, Brainerd, and all the way out in Hixson.
The lone picture comes from convenience store surveillance video, as does the picture of the white utility van in which he came and went. The bad guy is stealing cash, credit cards, and identities, then shopping at gas stations and grocery stores; purchasing, it appears, as he has need.
A familiar warning rings true in this case: when parking, do not lure him with your valuables left in sight, whether you are out shopping or locking up for the night. "If you're gonna leave something in the vehicle," said Jones, "just take it out of the vehicle and put it in the trunk and close it where it's out of sight, and out of mind."
There is not a lot to go on in this case, but if you can connect the man in the photo with the van, police could solve a number of crimes and you could get a cash reward. Sgt. Jones added, "We feel that once this person is caught, a lot of our car burglaries will go down."
Up to a thousand dollars is waiting. Call Crime Stoppers: 423-698-3333
An officer may answer the phone, but we will never ask for, nor reveal your identity.

What is Raley's Confectionary?
Raley's Confectionary is a family owned and operated Candy Shop that combines centuries old candy making techniques with wholesome ingredients and modern artwork. All of our Rock Candy is Handmade, 100% Natural, Vegan, Gluten Free and made with unbleached Organic Sugar.
We have been in business since April of 2013 and are finally ready to undertake our first expansion.
While we occasionally make other types of candy, Rock is our specialty. Rock is a type of boiled sugar sweet with designs, letters, or artwork inside each piece. The artwork is fashioned by hand in large logs of molten sugar and then stretched into hundreds of feet of rope. Thanks to Uniform-Scaling, the artwork in the log shrinks down to fit in a tiny bite sized piece of candy. By using carefully-selected natural extracts and oils we create hundreds of bright robust flavors to complement the visual appeal of our designs.
Ok, Tell me again exactly what you are going to do with all of this dough.
The main goal of this Kickstarter is to bring the magic of Candymaking to a place where the public can share and experience it. To do that we will need the following:
- Larger Tables
- Upgraded heating equipment- Sneezeguards and other fixtures
- Point of sale system
- Upgrades to the bathroom area
- High quality webcams
- Someone to help us get all of this setup and do troubleshooting
- Lapel Microphones and Condenser microphones to capture sound
- Plenty of bandwidth
Hey guys, ive got some news and a favor to ask! This is a wonderful little locally owned candy shop here in Tallahassee, their candy is DEVINE and right now they're trying to grow! My best friend Meryl works there as an apprentice, and the owner really takes his craft seriously!
This kickstarter is really going to help, and even a $10 donation gets a candy reward! Not only that, but if you didn't catch the bold up top, all of this candy is 100% natural, vegan AND gluten free! So it totally goes along with your lifestyle choices and dietary restrictions, and if you aren't vegan and can eat gluten, hey, candy you don't have to feel guilty about!
So please, as a favor to me, donate and reblog this! And if you're vegan or a part of a vegan community, please spread this around so we can really get it going, support your locally owned small vegan businesses!
Here's the link to the kicksarter (it's also linked at the top) and thank you!!!
I love rock candy!
