Boston Red Sox outfielder Carl Crawford has yet to step on the field at Fenway Park this season after suffering an ulnar collateral ligament strain, but he was expected to come back soon after completing 15 of the allowable 20 days of minor league rehabilitation. His return will be delayed even longer after he suffered a strained groin running out a triple in the minor leagues, the team announced Saturday.
The Red Sox decided to reset his rehab clock, which means he won't be able to appear in a game for five days, then will have another 20 to try to get back to the majors, according to MLB.com. What might be most concerning for Sox fans is Crawford's elbow still isn't completely healed.
"It's not 100 percent healthy, but I'm able to hit," Crawford said Friday, "so I said pretty much whenever I'm able to start hitting the ball and swinging the bat, then I'll play."
Valentine said the elbow is a situation that continues to require monitoring.
"A red flag?" Valentine said when asked if that's what Crawford's characterization of his elbow raised. "You mean a red flag that there's still something in his elbow? I think we have to manage that situation as he plays. And maybe it's just a caution flag."
Crawford's groin strain isn't considered particularly serious — Valentine said it would only require ice and rest — but regardless, the Sox will have to wait a little while longer to get a full outfield, especially since centerfielder Jacoby Ellsbury also remains sidelined with a shoulder injury.

Peter Jackson Starts Shooting 'The Hobbit' at 48 FPS: Why 24P May Be on the Way Out
Cinematographer/director/effects guru Douglas Trumball made an eye-opening presentation at NAB as part of the Digital Cinema Society conference this past week. Trumball, who was instrumental in the effects of 2001: A Space Odyssey, Close Encounters of the Third Kind, and Blade Runner, tried to get a 60 frames-per-second format known as Showscan off the ground in the late 70s (it never took). Was Trumball just ahead of his time? At the same time Trumball was presenting, Peter Jackson had begun shooting The Hobbit at 48 frames per second. Jackson expects there to be 10,000 theaters ready to exhibit the film at 48 FPS by the time of its release. He's not the only one clamoring for a new cinema standard, however: More »

SALEM, Ohio - Concerns over hydraulic fracturing prompted Salem residents to attend a meeting discussing the potential dangers of the process.
Wednesday night, a panel of some activists discussed the long term impacts they believe "fracking" has on a community.One panel member warned, if a well does not produce as much oil and gas as expected companies tend to become more aggressive.
"Where they're putting in this money and they're not seeing the return they're doubling down on sands, on hydrochloric acids, and a lot of their proprietary fluids," said Tedd Auch with The FracTracker Alliance. "They're doubling down, and their tripling down because they need to show returns on those wells."
Another panelist questions why, she says, companies in the past have leased mineral rights at a cost much higher than purchasing the land.
"I can only surmise that the legacy cost they don't want to own this stuff once the gas is depleted," said Vanessa Pesec with Network for Oil and Gas Accountability and Protection. "They want to be able to leave and whatever is left is left for the landowner."
An industry spokesman attended the meeting, he says some of the panelists facts are outdated and wrong.
"When you're talking about an oil and gas company that's developing a well, these companies are here for years," said Shawn Bennett with Energy in Depth. "These companies are responsible for that well from the cradle to the grave, so they are the ones responsible for it in the beginning and all the way until it's shut down."
All the information discussed was noted by some city council members, who are currently considering a proposed ordinance restricting oil and gas wells to M2 industrial zoning districts and prohibiting them from being within 500 feet from any existing building or structure. The goal is to keep companies from drilling wells near homes.However, where companies drill is a decision ultimately made by the state.
"Why should we try to restrict it when we're just kidding the people in Salem that an ordinance on the books doesn't mean anything," said Councilman Clyde Brown.
"It's our way of making a statement that we believe it's just responsible to do that kind of operation in an area that zoned for that type of activity," said Councilman Dave Nestic.
The legislation will go back to council for readings and a final vote.

Can we rewind a little bit?Thursday, November 1st, 2012
I decided this year that I'm not going to acknowledge my children's birthdays in writing. Of course they'll get their birthday cakes, presents and both the English and Venezuelan version of Happy Birthday. I just don't want to go into detail about what these birthdays mean.
If I did, I'd have to talk about how my daughter is now closer to 18 than she is to a much more simpler time. Like let's say being a toddler.
I'd have to discuss my son turning 5 and has now spent the majority of his life living in Venezuela. That might explain why he speaks so much Spanish.
Talking about it would mean acknowledging that I can no longer pick my daughter up, put her above my head and twirl her around while she has fits of giggles (I have about 2 months left of doing that with my son).
Nope, I'm going to avoid these topics altogether. I'll simply enjoy these other little moments that I still have with them…
You know the all-encompassing manual they give to parents, well it fails to mention that time goes by at warp speed sometimes. Not when you're up 3 times a night for feedings and diaper changes, but when you get settled into a phase where they're becoming independent, but still thing you hung the moon. I guess it's all sort of cyclical. Right when you least expect it, you wake up and they're 3 years older from the last time you checked.
I guess the only thing that I can do is accept that certain chapters have closed in raising my kids and look forward to the new ones *sigh*

Dan Henderson was a guest on HDNet's "Inside MMA" opposite guest host Tito Ortiz to discuss his upcoming Strikeforce bout with former PRIDE heavyweight champion Fedor Emelianenko. While Ortiz makes an inane comment or question (I can't really tell what he's trying to say) Henderson himself talks about the catchweight of 220lbs and sundry other items. There's also this video where Ortiz and Henderson talk about how to defeat Emelianenko by timing the overhand right off of Fedor's upright posture and jab.
What stands out to me about this entire affair is just how gleeful Henderson appears to be. It's fairly easy to understand why he has more to gain and few less to lose in this bout. His light heavyweight title isn't up for grabs, it's not his natural weightclass and really, just a vanity project. While Fedor needs this fight for redemptive purposes (sort of), should he lose it'd be his third in a row and it'd be to a fighter who has competed at middleweight. Moreover, one gets the sense from watching and listening to Henderson that he firmly believes this is a fight he is more than capable of winning even if the oddsmakers disagree.
Henderson is walking with a grin he can barely contain. It's as if he's in on a secret, a birthday surprise or big news that will pleasantly shock everyone. When fighters can't disguise their poker faces anymore, one must take note. It usually reveals real delusion or real insight. Perhaps Henderson has a better chance than oddsmakers or fans realize.

NFL Draft guru Mike Mayock hosted an extremely insightful Q&A with the media yesterday. See what he had to say below about the Houston Texans.
The true freshmen has played very little this season and is a bit of a mystery. Let's try and guess at what Iowa can expect to see from LSU's young quarterback.
Let's check some stats.
It's too early to give up on the LSU offense. But the problems need to be addressed now.
Zach Mettenberger the talented outcast from the Georgia Bulldogs program will not be coming to UC, at least not this summer. Mettenberger did visit campus in early May. But afterward the message...
There were rumors yesterday that Charlie Strong and the Louisville staff had ceased their pursuit of Zach Mettenberger. The rumors reached a crescendo at the time when Mettenberger was supposedly...
Well it looks like UC is becoming one of the go to destinations for players looking for a place to land upon transferring out of another program. Earlier this year Darrell Scott formerly of...
A breakdown of the Quarterback situation at LSU, including the incoming recruits and future recruiting targets.
A breakdown of Zach Mettenberger and his future with LSU.
Worst kept secret in college football, but Mettenberger made it official today. And the angels sing. Can you hear the hallelujah chorus? We need LSUFreek for a Mettenberger in purple wings and gold halo (a la our previous savior who forsook us, Zach Lee). I now expect LSU's offense to go from bottom 4th to no. 1 overall with Mettenberger putting up 5,000 passing yards, 50+ TDs, 0 INTs. What, it happened for Auburn? Update:BayouBengalsInsider.com has a telephone interview with him from this morning up in their free section.

On the Move: October 2010
What's shaking on the city's restaurant scene.
By Donna Garlough | Boston Magazine |
Back Bay, get ready for a round of musical chairs. Bouchée is departing its Newbury digs for a possible location nearby, and Papa Razzi will move in. Upscale Latin eatery Lolita Cocina and Tequila Bar will take Papa Razzi's Dartmouth Street space. A few doors away, Metropolitan Club will make its city debut with Met Back Bay, featuring a masculine look, an invite-only club, and a ham and cheese bar. Because nothing says "player" like a jambon and Gruyère melt, eh?

Seahawks sign OL Omiyale
The Seahawks have signed OL Frank Omiyale, who was released earlier in the offseason by the Bears.

Vikings-Bears matchup of the day: Tuesday
Here's a key matchup to watch in Sunday's Bears-Vikings game.
Bears-Lions matchup of the day: Sunday
The Bears haven't been thrilled with Frank Omiyale's play, but he's expected to make his third consecutive start Monday night vs. the Lions.
Bears-Lions matchup of the day: Thursday
Ndamukong Suh's combination of speed and strength could force the Bears to double-team him frequently Monday night.
Bears-Panthers matchup of the day: Thursday
The Bears' pass protection is still a concern, and it will be tested off the edges Sunday against the Panthers.
Omiyale latest starter on Bears' beleaguered O-line
With Gabe Carimi out for at least a few weeks recovering from a knee injury, the Bears are giving Frank Omiyale the first shot to fill in at right tackle.
Bears positional analysis: Offensive linemen
This is the fifth in a series of position-by-position looks at the Bears' personnel entering the 2011 offseason. The series continues with an analysis of Chicago's OL situation.

60-second rant: Belichick could expose Bears' greatest flaw
The Bears are only a game back in the race to secure home-field advantage in the NFC, but they still have an obvious weakness, and something tells me Bill Belichick is going to have a good plan for exploiting it ...
Bears' pass protection still has much room to improve
The Bears' offense has benefited from starting the same offensive linemen in the same five positions in each of the past four games, but Jay Cutler still has faced a fair share of heat recently.
Eagles-Bears matchup of the day: Tuesday
Bears OLT Frank Omiyale is serviceable and moves his feet well, but DE Trent Cole has the speed to beat him.
The Bears released Omiyale on Thursday.||||||| Omiyale started every game in 2010. He made just three starts at right tackle last season after Gabe Carimi was injured and later was replaced by Lance Louis. A seven-year veteran, Omiyale spent three seasons in Chicago after playing for Atlanta and Carolina.
The Bears agreed to a four-year contract with Omiyale on Friday, hoping to stabilize an offensive line that could be losing some key pieces. Omiyale can play tackle and guard, but his role with the Bears is not clear. They need help at tackle, with John Tait telling them he's retiring after 10 seasons and John St. Clair an unrestricted free agent.||||||| The Bears were interested in the 6-foot-4, 310-pound Omiyale coming out of Tennessee Tech, but Atlanta ultimately drafted him in the fifth round in 2005. Since then, he has appeared in 11 games - 10 with Carolina last season. He started against Kansas City on Oct. 5 and helped the Panthers run for 205 yards in a 34-0 victory.

Going into business with your partner
The idea of going into business with one's spouse can be appealing – after all, who else would you trust more than the person who shares both your bed and your cheque book?
By Philippa Taylor, CEO - Family Business Association
Many are surprised to learn that nearly 80% of all business in Australia is family owned – with an estimated wealth of $3.4 trillion.
After some time, a `friendly neighbour' did Brian the biggest favour of his life. He was reported to the health authorities, and warned that his business was not complying with the health regulations.
Despite taking responsibility for all the HR issues, Brian clearly felt family was exempt from the proper processes. He didn't even advertise the position. When he initially talked about taking Tom* on, I was reluctant to speak up for fear of upsetting everyone."
Many families use an independent facilitator to establish, develop and manage these discussions – at least at the outset. Meetings are usually conducted away from the business. Some families have favored the `family retreat' concept - which combines fun with work, a weekend away with a set agenda.

PETALUMA -- The following paragraph will have a happy ending. If you're a parent, however, it's the beginning you won't like.
On Oct. 3, 2011, a 16-year old boy with the need for speed slipped behind the wheel of a 2000 Pontiac Firebird. It had 775 horsepower. It looked like it was going 100 miles a hour, standing still.
The boy had never driven the car before. He was told to stomp the throttle.
Thus begins the description of every parent's worst nightmare. A teenager hits the gas hard on a car totally unfamiliar to him. The potential for awful, hideous tragedy is high. The level of disbelief registers incalculable. This is teenage testosterone in full bloom.
The kid is 16!
Clearly, this teenager on this day is in way over his head.
Until we find out how Marko Perivolaris reacted after he reached 147 miles an hour.
That's the speed he posted in the quarter-mile that October day at the Las Vegas Motor Speedway. That was the sixth of six runs Perivolaris made down the track. Six flawless runs. Six runs that produced this: Perivolaris earned his NHRA driver's license. Running this coming weekend at the NHRA Sonoma Nationals, Perivolaris passed the test to run cars at America's top drag racing series.
At 16 years old.
So how did he react? Scream? Do a dance? Did he punch the air? Spike the car keys? High-five and dislocate the wrists of grandmothers?
Perivolaris shook his dad's hand and then hugged him.
Teenagers were thinking of making Perivolaris an honorary adult after that stunt.
Whereas some teenagers you wouldn't trust them to ride a tricycle, so wild is the glint in their eye, Perivolaris creates the opposite effect. Nothing about him screams unrest. He has the passion of a cool calculator, down to his inspection of every bolt, nut and washer. In fact, he keeps more things hidden than he reveals.
Like The Wally.
The Wally is the most prized and sought-after possession in NHRA. It is a 12-pound, 18-inch statue representing Wally Parks, the sport's founder. Even though the statue actually is the likeness of another NHRA member, it nonetheless represents a singular nod of praise. Most drag racers never get a Wally, given to a winner of a NHRA-sanctioned event.

CATEGORIES Action, Comedy, Casting, Deals, New Releases, Executive shifts, RumorMonger, Celebrities and Controversy, Box Office, Scripts, Comic/Superhero/Geek, Movies, UK Box Office, New Releases, Cinematical, UK Box OfficeLove him or hate him, you've got to hand it to Brett Ratner for keeping his career in motion. Variety brings word that the hustling filmmaker plans to take his Rat Entertainment company from New Line, where it first settled in 1996, to a first-look deal with Paramount Pictures. Ratner says the departure of New Line execs Bob Shaye and Michael Lynne in February convinced him it was time to move on. At Paramount, Ratner will probably get bigger budgets and executives more receptive to his blockbuster-ready concepts. Stating the obvious, Ratner told Variety he "will not be pitching art films. I want to make major tentpole movies." You don't say?
Unless you're Scott Foundas, you probably balk at the idea of more Ratner movies populating the mainstream film scene, but the guy does fit the proper archetype of the classic Hollywood powerhouse. A modern day Sammy Glick, he knows how to make movies that bring out the audiences, whether or not they're any good. But maybe that determination means that, one day, Ratner will make a lot of great movies. His planned Hugh Hefner biopic sounds promising -- or at least, appropriate.
Still, that's a little ways off. Encouraged by his experience with X-Men: The Last Stand, Ratner decided he wanted to work on a new superhero franchise, so he's adapting Valiant Comics' Harbinger. Also in his queue: Beverly Hills Cop 4, The Incredible Shrinking Man and The Boys From Brazil. Do these projects get anyone excited? Anyone at all?

Oh sure, now I come to find it was dirty. No wonder it smelled like stale beer.

Police say a two-vehicle crash in Brookville killed a victim and left a toddler in critical condition on Monday morning.
According to authorities, the trailer of a semi tractor may have been across the center of the roadway as the driver, Harjodh Singh Chahal, 28, went around a curve around 11 a.m. A Mercury Mountaineer driven by Brittany Dennison, 24, was traveling northbound on S.R. 1 when struck by the trailer.
Dennison was pronounced dead on the scene by the Franklin County Coroner. A toddler who was a passenger in the Mountaineer was taken to Children's Hospital and is listed in critical condition. Chahal was not injured in the crash.
S.R. 1 was shut down between S.R. 101 and Reservoir Rd. for about six hours for officers to conduct their investigation. The crash remains under investigation.

CAPE CORAL: Cape Police are asking for help locating a suspect they say tried to break into a home while wearing clothes that looked like a police officer's uniform.
Neighbors we spoke to say they were so terrified by what happened, they didn't want to be identified on camera.
"I mean if you would have knocked on the door and said, 'Cape Coral Police,' I would have opened the door. No problem, I wouldn't have thought twice," said one neighbor we spoke to Friday night.
That man didn't want his face shown because he knows an impostor is still on the loose.
Police say their suspect knocked on a woman's door and introduced himself as a police officer.
She opened her door because the man had on a uniform that appeared to be legit. The clothing was described as a short sleeve shirt, black in color, with what appeared to be police type patches on the sleeves.
That's when police say the man attacked her.
"They need to be located and thrown in jail," the neighbor said.
Fortunately the woman was able to break his grip and get her gun. She fired off two shots and he ran away.
Anyone with information can contact the Cape Coral Police Department at (239) 574-3223 or Crime Stoppers at 1-800-780-TIPS.

Phoenix police say they've made an arrest in a series of armed robberies attributed to the so-called "calligraphy bandit."
Police say Tomas Garcia-Mancinas faces numerous felony charges stemming from robberies of pharmacies during the past three months.
The robber in those cases presented handwritten notes and demanded oxycodone.
According to police, three weapons believed to have been used in the robberies were recovered in searches conducted after Garica-Mancinas was arrested Friday.
A public defender who represents Garcia-Mancinas didn't immediately respond to a request for comment.
Authorities say Mancinas began taking oxycodone after his fingers were severed in Mexico.

Given that Brooks is on board, this does not take up a mere two or three discs; we get five DVDs, stuffed with 11 hours of material. Plus, mind you, a full CD with even more laughs of the audio-only kind. This is the "History of the Mel Brooks World Part 1," plus parts 2, 3, and 0.5 too. Or the "Seven Ages of Brooks," as Shakespeare might have said if he ran into Mel back in the 1600s. Wait! Here is Shakespeare himself, on disc 5, doing a Brooks-written commercial for a banana. Or something of the sort, with beatniks.
The feature films are not included, understandably, as the rights payments would no doubt have been prohibitive; they are readily available elsewhere. (The CD does include soundtrack recordings of some of the musical highlights.) What we get is everything else, though, starting with Mel's first television appearance on a 1951 episode of the "Texaco Star Theater" (AKA "The Milton Berle Show"). He plays stooge to pitchman Sid Stone, and is altogether awkward. There are talk-show appearances; sitcom episodes (including that of the 1965 hit "Get Smart" and one of his Emmy-winning appearances on "Mad About You"); TV commercials; and much much much more. Watch out for two early gems: "Of Fathers and Sons," the spoof of Death of a Salesman that Mel wrote for the Broadway revue New Faces of 1952, featuring Paul Lynde, Ronny Graham and Alice Ghostley; and the Oscar-winning 1963 animated short, "The Critic."
The whole is contained not in a box but within a 60-page hardcover book filled with juicy illustrations from the Brooks atelier plus essays by Leonard Maltin, Robert Brustein, Gene Wilder and Bruce Jay Friedman. No "Producers" or "Young Frankenstein" or "High Anxiety" here; just high insanity.

With the 12th pick, the Minnesota Vikings selected Florida State quarterback Christian Ponder.
A surprise? Yes and no. Ponder at 12 is a much higher pick than people thought, but a lot of people thought NFL general managers would panic and grab quarterbacks. The Vikings, with no real starter in place thanks to Brett Favre's retirement, had to grab Ponder.
Out of all the quarterbacks in the class, I liked Ponder the most. He's got an accurate arm and that will work for the Vikings who have the weapons to spread the field. Ponder can move, throw, and make the plays. There was a lot of talent on the board, so the Vikings must have really liked him to take him at 12. Can Ponder replace Favre? We'll see. Can he beat out Joe Webb and Tavarais Jackson for the opening day job? Stay tuned.

Unique aboriginal studies program graduates first students
A special ceremony featuring traditional native drummers was held today at Queen's University to honour the first four graduates of Canada's only program for graduate studies in indigenous public administration and policy.
Four students – Deborah Brant, Francis Cadeau, Tracy Maracle and Russell Roundpoint – received a Master of Public Administration (MPA) degree. The program started in 2007 and was developed by the Queen's School of Policy Studies and the First Nations Technical Institute, located on the Tyendinaga Mohawk Territory.
"This is a historic day. On behalf of all members of the School of Policy Studies, I congratulate the graduating students on their great achievement. I thank the graduates' families and their communities for the support they provided to the graduates during the academic program, and wish the graduates well in their ongoing careers," says School of Policy Studies director Peter Harrison, who attended the event.
The program involves a series of courses that are unique in Canada and integrate traditional knowledge and philosophies in indigenous policy, governance, and management.
The development of policy leaders and senior administrators is essential to the capacity building and self-determination of First Nations, both for today and for future generations. It is hoped that graduates of the program will play key roles in First Nations organizational and community development.

Knowing there's enough water to float your boat is only part of it. Whenever a relatively shallow patch is surrounded by deeper water, the chance of potentially boat-killing breakers exists. Take a site with 30-foot depths, for example. Sure, that's plenty of water under the keel, but then look closely at the chart. If the surroundings are considerably deeper, there's a possibility of breakers when the weather gets nasty.
Often, the chart will indicate breakers over the area. That's another good argument for heading out to the sea buoy before making your approach. While there will rarely be questionable water between the sea buoy and the inlet entrance, I can think of a number of inlets where there are shallow and breaker-prone areas just off the approach channel — Barnegat in New Jersey and Ocean City in Maryland are two that immediately come to mind.
There are times, however, when we don't have the luxury to wait for an inlet to settle down before heading in. Most modern vessels can take pretty much anything that is thrown at them, provided the skipper does not make unreasonable demands or engage in foolish maneuvers. A responsible skipper will understand the characteristics and limitations of his vessel and will act accordingly. My advice is to not make the boat's job tougher. It's always prudent to come in on the slow bell with just enough way to maintain steerage.
When seas are running, a slow approach allows you to adjust speed and boat position relative to the wave direction. Seas running diagonally across the inlet's mouth can be taken somewhat off the beam, allowing the boat to be "crabbed" in safely. Usually, once inside the breakwaters, oncoming or quartering seas calm down. With seas running directly into an inlet, I will always come in at a slower speed than the seas. Often, it's possible to "ride the back" of a sea into the inlet, all the time taking care not to exceed the speed of the wave. Outrunning the sea can result in a broach or pitch pole. Allowing the seas to pass under the keel and go on their way contributes toward maintaining boat control.
Yes, there are those of the deep-V pedal-to-the-metal set who recommend boldly blasting into an inlet regardless of the conditions. They count on horsepower and deadrise to get them home. To those who firewall throttles when others practice caution, may the force be with you — keeping in mind the old axiom (with apologies to aviators): There are old boaters and bold boaters, but there are no old bold boaters.
Preparing Boat and Crew for the Inlet Approach
The sudden transformation from an offshore run to what can be the vastly different conditions of an inlet approach is best considered at the beginning of a voyage rather than at the end. As such, I take the following steps to prepare the crew and boat:
» All crew and guests are on deck, and I'm confident all are aware of life vest and life raft locations and that they are capable of deploying the raft.
» All loose gear on deck and below has been stowed and/or secured. Particular attention is taken with dock lines or loose rope that can be washed overboard with the possibility of fouling props.
» I've previously determined my ETA and am aware of the destination's tidal/current picture and bridge schedules, if need be.
» I am aware of local Coast Guard units and which commercial towers are active in the area. Commercial towers are always glad to respond to VHF calls requesting local knowledge and conditions.
» My vessel's filters and water separators have been recently changed or examined in the event of encountering turbulent inlet conditions.

The U.S. Coast Guard is asking all boat owners and operators to help reduce fatalities, injuries, property damage, and associated healthcare costs related to recreational boating accidents by taking personal responsibility for their own safety and the safety of their passengers. Essential steps include: wearing a life jacket at all times and requiring passengers to do the same; never boating under the influence (BUI); successfully completing a boating safety course; and getting a Vessel Safety Check (VSC) annually from local U.S. Coast Guard Auxiliary, United States Power Squadrons(r), or your state boating agency's Vessel Examiners. The U.S. Coast Guard reminds all boaters to "Boat Responsibly!" For more tips on boating safety, visit www.uscgboating.org.
Great article. I've seen inlets from Government Cut in Miami to Townsend's Inlet and Atlantic City New Jersey change from angry beasts with waves breaking clear across the entrance to docile little puppies at the tidal change. There are also times when boats seem untrained on who has right of way when a bridge opens with boats waiting on both sides.

(WMC-TV) - Their friendships go back nearly four decades.
They served and socialized alongside each other as Shriners of the Memphis Al Chymia Shrine Temple, 5770 Shelby Oaks Dr. In fact, Charles Moore is a former potentate of the temple.
Count 'real estate broker' as one of Moore's former titles, too.
The Tennessee Real Estate Commission revoked his broker's license, and he's announced his realty company will file for bankruptcy in the wake of both a state and federal investigation into real estate-backed securities that have cost several investors, including Moore's fellow Shriners, thousands of dollars.
"I just felt he was a very, very close friend," said fellow Shriner George Jackson of Bartlett. According to financial documents, Jackson invested more than $25,000 with Moore's Home Realty Company of Memphis, 3412 Park Ave.
"I've known Charlie for 35 years," said Fred Sexton of Forrest City, AR. Documents indicate he's out more than $75,000 with Moore's company.
Moore's company manages rental properties. It also buys and refurbishes distressed properties for re-sale or rent.
According to documents supplied by investors, Moore convinced an untold number of them, including fellow Shriners, to invest in promissory note contracts on the properties. The notes, couched as real estate-backed securities, guaranteed as much as an eight percent return on the investments as Moore filed and secured the properties with the proper regulatory agencies.
In on-camera interviews with The Action News 5 Investigators, both Jackson and Sexton said for years, they enjoyed steady returns on their investments with Moore.
But by 2012, Moore had dropped his eight percent guarantee to as low as two percent.
"He dropped his interest rate down to practically nothing," said Sexton.
Eventually, Jackson said, the checks stopped coming.
"He quit the contract and wouldn't honor the pay on principal," Jackson said.
Jackson and two other investors reported their concerns to the Tennessee Real Estate Commission. "We have a history with Mr. Moore that goes back to 2009," said commission spokesperson Kate Abernathy.
Abernathy said in 2009, the commission started looking into the promissory notes Moore negotiated with his investors, as well as the properties he had supposedly secured to guarantee those investments.
"At that point in time, none of the properties had been secured," she said.
Abernathy and commission documents confirmed the agency cited Moore for failing to carry professional liability insurance on his company, for "...a continued and flagrant course of misrepresentation or making of false promises" and for "failing...to account for or to remit any moneys" under the contracts.
The violations ultimately resulted in the revocation of Moore's Tennessee real estate license in June.
"We had an individual who was acting not in the best light of a real estate broker," Abernathy said.
Moore now faces two lawsuits in Shelby County. One alleges he refused to repay a $30,000 loan. The other claims he breached a contract and defaulted on real estate investments. According to the case jacket, that suit includes a summary judgment against Moore for more than $58,000.
Jackson and Sexton said they feel betrayed by their fellow Shriner.
"The organization we are associated with is built on trust and respect for our fellow man," said Jackson. "And for Mr. Moore to use his supposed influence in being in that organization, I think he has taken advantage of us."

District 1 commissioner Keith Davis encouraged any residents who have not already done so to sign up for automated garbage pickup. The cans that go along with the new service are being distributed now.
Earlier this year, the commission voted to replace its rear-loading garbage trucks with automated ones. The switch is expected to save time and money in a department that in the past has been overbudget by as much as $400,000 per year.
"We made those changes to make Solid Waste more efficient and to spend your taxpayer dollars in the wisest way we possibly can," Davis said.
District two commissioner Dan Wright suggested granting amnesty to residents who are not signing up now because of unpaid bills.
"I've had a lot of folks call me and say, 'I was on garbage service 15 years ago. I want to get back on it because I heard about the new cans, but they're saying I owe three months back pay because I didn't call them and tell them I wanted off of it. So they kept riding by and charging me,'" Wright said.
Wright recommended forgiving that debt for residents who keep their account current under the new system.
Commissioners Bobby Nunnelley and Steven Aderholt said they are interested in finding new ways to tackle litter in the county, a problem Nunnelley called "disgraceful."
Nunnelley said local constables are currently organizing a series of clean-up days but added that issuing tickets might also be necessary.
"It's either put it in the garbage can or you're going to get wrote up. It's just that plain and simple," Nunnelley said.
Aderholt added that roadsides that are picked up one week are covered in litter by the next.
He said since asking residents to stop throwing out their trash has not been an effective solution, it is time to address the problem in other ways, such as posting the names of those who litter in local newspapers.
He also issued a plea for help from constituents.
"It doesn't matter where you're from in the county, we're spending your tax dollars to pick up trash that's being thrown out on the side of the road. We could spend those dollars somewhere else doing things much more useful than that, so we'd ask you to continue in the effort to help us get this problem stopped," Aderholt said.
In other action, the commission:
•heard a request to increase the amount the county provides to the East Walker County Chamber of Commerce to $10,000 per year. The chamber's current annual allotment from the county is $3,200.
Chevee Whitfield, executive director of the Chamber, said that amount has remain unchanged since the late 1990s and is one of three primary revenue sources for the chamber.
The others are dues and a handful of annual fundraisers.
Whitfield asked that commissioners consider increasing the appropriation to offset the chamber's financial losses, which she estimated to be approximately $8,500 per year.
"We are going in the red financially every month. There was a little nest egg that we go into to keep operations going, and that is dwindling very fast," Whitfield said.
Whitfield requested that the commission revise its contract with the chamber when it comes up for renewal in October.
Nunnelly asked Whitfield to come before the commission again at a later date with more information about the chamber's activities and finances.
•awarded a bid for a water system improvement project to B&H Contracting Inc. for $379,933.40. The project will be funded by a Community Development Block Grant.
•adopted resolutions giving the city of Oakman control of the right of way on Washington Street and turning control of Sutton Street over to the city of Cordova.

It's Cool to Be Grounded
Such statistics are frightening, but our tendency to regard adolescence with fear and to brand it as a time of struggle and alienation may be preventing us from seeing it as a time of sacred transition and spiritual possibility. It is during our teen years that we begin to explore and define our identity, to carve out a path for ourselves, to practice the skill of making life choices. During these tender years, we face challenges that often accompany us into adulthood--of self-acceptance, adjusting to change, and dealing with conflict. "Adolescents, above all else, are trying to define who they are, even though their parents, peers, and the media create strong stories about who they are supposed to be," says Kim Tanzer, a Palo Alto, California, yoga teacher who works with teens.
More and more adolescents are doing yoga these days--in high schools, juvenile halls, churches, yoga studios, homes for pregnant girls, and even at Girl Scout meetings. The diversity of environments can present challenges for teachers, but the gift of yoga for adolescents is precisely that it helps them move beyond the differences that define and limit their experience of themselves.
Yoga is both an individual and a universal practice, a form of self-study and a mode of social education, as well as a stabilizing force in the presence of change. So it's hard to imagine a teen who wouldn't benefit from it. "Yoga awakens their most basic nature of being alive, of caring for their bodies and relaxing into the space of mental freedom," says Christy Brock, a teacher in Nashville, Tennessee, who recently produced the DVD Yoga for Teens and created a Web-based network for yoga teachers who work with teens (www.yogaminded.com).
Under Pressure
"There is always the pressure, no matter how good your self-esteem is, to be more beautiful and thinner," says Makendra Silverman, an 18-year-old high school student in Ashland, Oregon, who started yoga at age 16 when her cross-country-track coach introduced her to it. Perhaps at no other time in our lives are we as invested in what others think of us as in our teenage years, when the painful habits of comparing ourselves with others and responding to peer pressure take hold. "I try not to let what people think bug me, but I do," says 13-year-old Devin Clancy, a student in Holiday Johnson's Standing on Your Own Two Feet teen yoga program in Portland, Oregon. "I don't care what people who don't know me think, but my friends are another story."
The instability of a teenager's self-image is a normal developmental stage, though it can make the average teenager seem crazy to an adult, notes Pipher in Reviving Ophelia. In fact, there may be a biological explanation for the inability of teens and adults to see eye-to-eye. A research team led by Deborah Yurgelun-Todd at Harvard University's McLean Hospital has documented a significant difference between the teen brain and the adult brain. In the team's study, teens who were asked to identify emotions on faces on a computer screen activated the amygdala, the part of the brain that mediates fear and gut reactions, more often than the frontal lobe, which governs reason. As teens mature and their perceptions become based more on reason than on feeling, the brain activity in such a task shifts to the frontal lobe.

Six controversial extradition cases were up for a ruling today and in 5 out of the 6 cases the judges agreed the accused could be sent to the US.
Hamza had argued that extradition to the US would be a violation of the European human rights code, which prohibits inhuman and degrading treatment of prisoners. Although Hamza is in effect on his way to the US in reality there is still some way to go. If a further appeal is lodged within the next three months the extradition will be halted once again.
UK Home Secretary Theresa May has used some of these high profile cases as examples as to why the Human Rights Act is flawed. However to imply that this means the Act should be scrapped is nonsense. It may need some revision but these days our Human Rights need protecting more than ever. As the media have reported, "Critics claim the extradition treaty, which was agreed after the September 11 terror attacks in New York, needs to be rebalanced to give Britons greater protection."
Currently however there appears to be a farcical feeling to the UK and its extradition laws. UK citizens are being shipped off with hardly a thought to their human rights, take for example Christopher Tappin, whilst people such as Abu Qatada have their appeals upheld.
After today's ruling SkyNews reported that: "The judges rejected the men's claims they could face prison conditions and jail terms that would expose them to "torture or inhuman or degrading treatment or punishment". The ruling is a boost for the Government, although the court stressed it only becomes final after three months, if there is no further appeal. Home Secretary Theresa May welcomed the decision and said the suspects would be handed over "as quickly as possible" Between 1999 and 2006, the six men were all indicted on terrorism charges by the US and their extradition requested - leading to their arrests in Britain"
The other men have been named as, Babar Ahmad, Haroon Rashid Aswat, Syed Tahla Ahsan and Adel Abdul Bary.

For two weeks I've been contemplating the news that Microsoft is terminating several high-end certification programs.
Microsoft is retiring the masters-level certification exams, which include Microsoft Certified Master, Microsoft Certified Solutions Master, and Microsoft Certified Architect. Many of those who worked so hard and spent so much time and money to reach these levels and distinguish themselves have exploded with anger and frustration over this decision, not to mention the ones who were still in the process of obtaining the coveted Master (aka Ranger) designation.
[ The InfoWorld review: Windows 8.1: New version, same mess. | 10 excellent new features in Windows Server 2012 R2. | Stay atop key Microsoft technologies in our Technology: Microsoft newsletter. ]
The MCM program began in 2001 as the Exchange Ranger program and was later expanded to include Active Directory, Lync, SharePoint, and SQL as part of 2005's MCA program. These programs have had a good run. As for why Microsoft is cutting the program, it's very simple, says Tim Sneath, a Microsoft senior director: Too few people are trying to get certified, which means there's little money to maintain it.
In Microsoft's formal announcement, Sneath wrote: "Only a few hundred people have attained the certification in the last few years, far fewer than we would have hoped. We wanted to create a certification that many would aspire to and that would be the ultimate peak of the Microsoft Certified program, but with only about 0.08 percent of all MCSE-certified individuals being in the program, it just hasn't gained the traction we hoped for."
I'll admit it: I always wanted to be a Ranger -- specifically, an Exchange Ranger. Over the years, I've met some Masters, and that designation always inspired a little awe in me. It's good, even for adults, to have heroes.

Twenty-year-old Justen Knapp of Trafalgar apologized during Thursday's Morgan County court hearing for killing 20-year-old Bradley Price. The Daily Journal reports Knapp said he had been using marijuana and prescription pills before the Oct. 11 confrontation with Price in a field near Morgantown.
Knapp pleaded guilty to murder charges in a deal with prosecutors.

The Philippines are an archipelago of more than seven thousand islands off the southeast coast of Asia. Only half of these islands have been named and roughly one thousand are inhabited. Look at how beautiful they are! People first arrived here from the mainland around 25,000 B.C. by crossing a land bridge which existed at the time.
The name comes from Ferdinand Magellan of Portugal, who explored the Philippines in 1521. He claimed them in service of Spain, naming them after Prince Philip. Spain controlled the Philippines for the next 350 years until the Philippine Revolution of 1896.
Here's a picture of Fort Santiago, where the national hero Jose Rizal was imprisoned prior to his execution. He was a poet and novelist who supported peaceful reform, rather than violent revolution, against the Spanish government.
This is one of poems in which he describes the creation of the world, as a gift to his mother:
"Say they that tell of the world, the first dawn of the sun, the first kiss that his bosom inflamed, when thousands of beings surged out of nothing, and peopled the depths, and to the heights mounted, to wherever his fecund kiss was implanted"
Violent revolution broke out anyway and the Philippines changed hands from Spanish, to American, to Japanese control over the next fifty years. Following World War Two they finally became an independent republic.
Back to the beautiful ocean! You can dream about the Cafe Del Mar resort next time you find your screen saver kicking in when you're still sitting at the desk staring blankly. There's a series of DJ mixes with this title but I don't know if it refers to the same place. I would not be surprised.
Annnnd to really get you buying your plane tickets...

At Daniel Field they still got aircraft, but no air show...
"There's no airplanes running around in the sky, no vehicles running up and down a closed runway. This is kind of unusual for us," says Becky Shealy, of Augusta Aviation. She is also the Boshears Skyfest's hostess.
Since the early 1990's, there's been an air show at Daniel Field this time of year, but thanks to the government shutdown, this year's show got grounded.
So, we had two decades worth of Boshears, but this year is "no-shears". "Well, that's a way to look at it," says Shealy.
And, there's no Boshears to look at for Cathy and Cameron Hern this year. That hurts, because they love it. "The adrenalin, the excitement, it's just really cool because I can't do that. I could never fly like that," said Cathy.
But, if you HAVE to see some flying this weekend, the place to get your fix could be Phinizy Swamp.
"Yes, we are seeing a fly show, yes we are," says Cathy, who along with her daughter Cameron, was visiting the swamp.
Not airplanes but birds at Phinizy Swamp...lots of them in the water and in the trees...and just like Boshears isn't all planes, Phinizy Swamp isn't all birds.
Military displays are always at Boshears and here at Phinizy Swamp, there's an armored vehicle, of sorts. Well, not an armored vehicle really, but a real armadillo, they crawl more than fly, but to see one alive is thrilling.
And, if you like the sense of danger at Boshears, well believe me...you can find that also at Phinizy Swamp. Just ask these gators if you want a death-defying time.
So, what's better...watching the nature show at Phinizy Swamp, or watching the airplanes go at Boshears?
"Air show," said Cameron, with little hesitation.
It's "noshears" this year, but for high flying fun, you can still wing it at Phinizy Swamp.

Welcome to the Underworld, where you guide Mutt, the bad luck Litil Divil, through the Labyrinth of Chaos to retrieve the Mystical Pizza of Plenty. Our "hero" takes a fateful step through the Mortal Portal to prowl five hellish levels of treacherous tunnels with more than 50 raucous rooms of gameplay. Beware of killer spiders, bottomless swamps, ferocious furnaces... and crazed bartenders. And watch out! If you can't get Mutt to the Overlord, The Entity and The Servant will drag him to the Torture Room for a little fiendish fun.

I bought Litil Divil because of the beautiful pixel art in the screenshots and the glowing reviews praising the mix of gameplay styles. However, having given it a try, I would warn others against buying this game.
My first surprise was the complete lack of any story, at least at the start of the game. You simply see Divil dancing around and then are presented with the first challenge.read more No intro, no text, nothing to give me any motivation to play the game further.
Also, the controls are finicky and unintuitive, as you will discover as you spend countless frustrating minutes trying to get past the first monster. As you are pummeled by him you will notice how the low-quality, jerky animation contrasts with the high quality art.
Next, you will move into a drab, featureless maze. The camera control here is really bad, and you will often be looking through a wall at your character, or not be able to see more than 2 feet in front of yourself. How could they mess this up in a 2D game? There are only 4 possible camera positions!
You will find yourself constantly frustrated by huge damage dealt by tiny splotches on the ground of the maze and unavoidable traps littered everywhere. When you finally make it into a room, you are presented with a super-difficult challenge, which you have no idea if it's even possible to complete at this point in the game, as many challenges require equipment to be bought first.
If you leave the room or are killed, your character is dealt massive, permanent damage. If your health runs out, you have to restart the game. I guess saving is theoretically a possibility, but only if you are able to find the hidden room somewhere deep in the maze where saving is possible.
So in short this game is terribly difficult, poorly designed, and has no redeeming qualities except for some nice static art pieces. Don't listen to the other reviews, save your money and buy a better game.

Litil Divil is a really odd title. It's a combination of a puzzle game, exploration game, platformer and a... fighting game. How does that work out you can ask? It just does. The game resolves around our hero, Mutt that tries to venture through all of the dungeons, defeating their guardians and solving the devious puzzles.
The said puzzles can range from jumping from bubble toread more bubble, defeating a spider with a can of insecticide (previously bought in a shop), fighting a combatant with a deadly tool (sickle, pin...), playing a game of "Simon says..."
The game is insanely frustrating and insanely hard. But its rewarding! These amazing cartoon graphics just bring a smile to the face and the dark, sometimes violent humor is just charming.
The game was originally released for Amigas and that's where I played it first. The PC version that I later tried suffers from a bit of a control problem (Keyboard just doesn't cut it!), so I advise using a gamepad or a joystick for this one!!!
If you're looking for a real mind-bender and want to exercise your thumbs, this is an A+ title for this. If you lack patience and despise hard challenges, pass on this title.

Mind was blown upon seeing this on gog, played this back on my uncle's amiga 32 cd.
Game's more or less same as I remember it, initial nostalgia rush is tempered by remembering that even back then I found the controls a bit tricky sometimes, gamepad helps.
Gameplay is all about exploring a maze and finding a way to the next level, putting the souls of those who have gone beforeread more you as optional objectives.
As you stroll down the corridors leaning how to avoid traps after likely getting hit by a few, picking up items, exploring and picking up gold which you'll need to buy stuff from the shop, you'll come across rooms which will likely contain challenges.
You never know what you might need for a challenge, what the controls do or what your objective is.
One minute you might be fighting a sumo wrestler before finding yourself brewing potions followed by finding yourself in a room with a dragon and its treasure or even have to do some platforming whilst avoiding obstacles or play in some weird kind of chess game.
Variety is one of the game's strength and is old skol in that it's hard but rewarding kind of hard when you beat a room open up a new section of the maze to explore.
Don't worry about exploring new rooms you fear are unprepared for, failure doesn't mean gameover, you have a healthy lifebar upon which failure takes a small chunk out of.
Save rooms restore your health so you can try again or just go off exploring somewhere else, which is a good thing as you REALLY don't want to die in this game and will be treated to a game over sequence where you're tortured in a different manner per level.
The overseer getting interested or bored in your progress is a constant reminder of this fate if you fail.
Amongst the factors that make the game charming, it's worth mentioning the music is good and doesn't get repetitive which is handy as you will be hearing the main theme quite often.
Visuals are functional, cartoony style visuals tend to age better then early 3d games so shouldn't be too much of an eyesore for modern gamers.
If a game of exploration and variety appeals to you then considerpicking this up, game is worth giving a go and will grow on you as you keep exploring the maze and work toward the noble goal of retrieving what must be the most delicious pizza ever.

BEES: Senior not fazed by postponements
6:00am Friday 10th January 2014 in Football By Adam Summers
TREVOR Senior is not too concerned by recent postponements and is confident they will not affect the Bees' good run of form.
St Mary's Field was completely flooded last Saturday but club officials remain hopeful that tomorrow's home clash with Cadbury Heath (3pm) will go ahead.
Last weekend's postponement at Hengrove Athletic was the second game Bridport have lost to the weather in just 14 days.
However, they still remain well up on their fixtures having completed 23 in the Toolstation Western Premier Division already this season.
Bridport boss Senior said: "I haven't seen the pitch over the last few days but, having looked at some of the photos of it last weekend, I don't think it has ever been as bad.
"It was completely covered in water last Saturday but having spoken to our secretary Chris Tozer on Wednesday, we are hoping tomorrow's game can still go ahead.
"We have had a bit more rain since and we will just have to wait and see what happens over the next day or so."
He went on to add: "Looking at the league table, we are pretty much on our games, so it's not too bad.
"However, we do not want these postponements to go on too much longer because it can cause you to get out of the habit of playing, and as we are on a good run at the minute it is far from ideal.
"Having said that, we have managed to train on the 3G at the Thomas Hardye Leisure Centre over the past week, and even managed to have a full practice match there, so that should keep us ticking over.
"The worry is that we haven't had a cold snap yet but, at the end of the day, you can do nothing about the weather.
"All we can do is just work through it the best we can."
Chris Senior, Darren Watts and Ryan Dovell are all unavailable for tomorrow's clash but Jamie Filkins and Matt Morley are both fit again and should play a part.
Cadbury Heath currently sit nine points and four places above the Bees in seventh spot.
However, Bridport have lost just two of their last 10 in the league, with both of those defeats coming against teams in the top three.
Bees: (from) S Filkins, J Filkins, G Bulman, C Clarke, Hayter, Evans, Wise, Luke, Richardson, M Buckler, Condliffe, Morley, Staines
