Officers were at the scene early Tuesday morning after receiving reports of a woman shot in the back at a west Tulsa home.
It happened just after 12:30 a.m. when TPD was called to a residence at the 5000 block of S. 26th West Avenue. At the scene, they found a woman had been shot in the back.
An investigating officer told KTUL.com that the shots came from outside the house where three individuals were located inside at the time of the shooting. Police believe multiple suspects to be involved.
The woman was taken to an area hospital and her condition is unknown at this time. Her age and identify have not been released pending TPD's investigation.

When last seen on the picket-line, Puerto Rican teachers were fighting their way through police barricades to appeal to fellow workers from the Service Employees International Union (SEIU), at its lavishly funded convention in
The message of the Federacion de Maestros de Puerto Rico (FMPR) was simple: please stop SEIU President Andy Stern from colluding with the indicted governor of the island to replace FMPR with a "company union."
At SEIU's convention, only a handful of delegates dared to challenge Stern on this issue. When eight rank-and-file members from
Most of the 3,000 delegates and guests simply cheered when Stern and SEIU vice-president Dennis Rivera, a native of
In the view of SEIU and Acevedo Vila, teachers needed a new SEIU-affiliated union because FMPR no longer had legal recognition after its walk-out over wages, classroom size, and the threat of privatization. This month, however, the teachers themselves disagreed that it was time for a change. By a margin of 18,123 to 14, 675, they voted on Thursday (10/23) against joining the SEIU-backed SPM (Sindicato Puertorriqueno de Maestros), which is closely aligned with another SEIU affiliate, the Association de Maestros de Puerto Rico, an organization of school principals and administrators.
The "Vote No" campaign was orchestrated by the FMPR which, as further punishment for its "illegal" strike, was denied a spot on the ballot. (FMPR was even barred from having observers at teacher polling places.) Prior to the start of the election, FMPR presented evidence to the labor relations commission showing that it still had voluntary financial support from 12,000 members (who have continued to pay union dues even though automatic deductions from all teachers' paychecks were discontinued when FMPR was "decertified.") Although SEIU favors "employee free choice" on the mainland and assured critics here there would be a multiple choice ballot, Stern and his local allies limited Puerto Rican teachers to just one union option, which they then rejected.
The defeated SPM has almost no dues payers so SEIU had to pour hundreds of thousands of dollars into this losing effort, much of it spent on advertising. As one FMPR supporter reported, SEIU had "paid staff at each school giving out free t-shirts and coolers and the media and the government were clearly in its favor but still they couldn't impose their union on us." FMPR activist Edgardo Alvelo, who teaches at a vocational school in Rio Piedras, estimates that his union spent only "$50,000 on the whole campaign." According to Alvelo, "that money was very hard to obtain, but it was enough to win. It was our people in the schools that did the job. Today, we are celebrating and tomorrow our struggle will continue in all our schools."
The representation vote turnout was extremely high. Of the 36,000 teachers eligible to participate due to their permanent status, 33,818 actually voted, with a thousand of those ballots being challenged or voided. FMPR now faces the task of continuing to function as what's called a "bonafide organization," under P.R. labor law. While still deprived of the full collective bargaining rights it had before the strike, FMPR retains a strong shop steward structure, the ability to represent members, and mobilize around educational policy issues and day-to-day job concerns.
FMPR supporters in
During an August visit to the mountain community of Utuado, one New York Solidarity Committee member, Judy Sheridan-Gonzalez, brought money that was collected for FMPR members disciplined for their union activity. Reports Sheridan-Gonzalez, a registered nurse:
"The union, in collaboration with students and parents, had developed a progressive, inclusive curriculum that was extraordinarily successful. This collaborative structure was unilaterally dismantled by the government/school authority in 2007 and 17 teachers were suspended when they fought back.. They stood firm even without an income and the class of 2008 in Utuado even dedicated their graduation speeches to these teachers. Their energy and commitment was inspiring and reminiscent of the spirit of
That same feisty spirit was on display in this month's island-wide union vote, which gave SEIU an expensive lesson in the meaning of "No."

The North Dakota State Fair attracts thousands of people every year, so local law enforcement will be working overtime to help keep the grounds safe.
A total of 20 officers and deputies from the Ward County Sheriff's Department, Minot Police Department, Surrey Police Department and Ward County Reserves will be patrolling the fair grounds every day.
No weapons will be allowed inside the grounds or grandstand, and bags will be searched before entering.
Ward County Sheriff's Department says safety for guests is their priority.
"We have some assistance from a Minot Air Force Base group that helps with the searches of patrons coming to some of the concerts, the deputy's do assist them with that. We assist with security inside the concert and backstage, then on the midway and the rest of the fairgrounds all at the same time," says Captain Robert Barnard, Ward County Sheriff's Department.
Captain Barnard says the fair is for people to enjoy themselves, but if they do see any suspicious activity, report it to an officer.

South Africa's national holidays

The ideology of Apartheid was based on segregation of races, yet if you look at the origins or heritage of the Afrikaner people the ideology is rather ironic. Just how 'pure' was the Afrikaner? Not very if you look closely at historical records.

This search is an absolute circus. Who do we have at the Senior Bowl doing our scouting? Just Dom? Schiano is a great college coach, and the kinda guy that players will go through a wall for, but as with any college hires, I'm going to look first, to the coordinators.No matter who gets hired, if they're a college coach making the jump, I'm just as concerned about who he brings on to run the offense/defense, because with new coaches, it's often the supporting cast that strongly affects their success.
Jenna Laine remains skeptical and suggests, "If Bucs are in fact interviewing Schiano, it may not necessarily be for HC position. Could be for coordinator since they'll prob choose staff"

Another big week for DLT has him believing he is now the King of NFL Prognosticators.
As we continue to break down Sunday's big game we chat with Dave Choate of the Falcoholic.
Injuries have wreaked havoc on the Tampa Bay Buccaneers this season, but the Atlanta Falcons have been hard-hit in the past few weeks as well.
The Bucs look to keep it rolling against their division rival Atlanta Falcons. Atlanta is 9-1 but have been playing poorly of late, while Tampa Bay is 6-4 and winners of 5 of their last 6.
DLT is on fire as he completed a 12-2 week. Can he kick the stuffing out of turkeys this week?
Josh Freeman has been terrific the past four games, but can he keep it up against a quality Carolina defense?
The Tampa Bay Buccaneers have faced more and more injuries as the season progresses, which is pretty natural. Unfortunately, the offensive line has been hardest hit. And this week, a new injury...
The Tampa Bay Buccaneers must find a way to win on Sunday against the Carolina Panthers. Can they answer the Call of Duty?
The Bucs go for the sweep in Carolina but the Panthers have revenge and respect on their minds.
After back-to-back decent weeks, DLT is in the positive vibe mood and gives his reasons to hope for each team.

The property was very nice, the bedrooms were great, and the view beautiful, room on the beach and that is where it ends.
• One day without AC.
• Spotted palmetto bugs
• Furnishings are less then comfortable
• It is not located in a gated community but along the road to a gated community
• The swimming pool is just over a half mile away from the unit
• The beach is not a "100 yards" from the beach but 330 yard
• The sand dunes are 100 yards after you cross two active streets
As for the local amenities such as restaurants there are too few to handle the population, waits from 60 to 90 minutes to be seated and then more time because they are all under staffed. Sea food is great after the wait. Are you going fishing? Nice, the pier charges by the fishing pole and pier closes at 12 PM. Want to go out on a boat to fish? Even better, make a reservation more than two weeks out or no fishing from a boat. This place cannot handle the number of people that show up every week.
As for the infer structure everyone arrives at 4 PM on Saturday, and everyone checks out at 10 AM on Saturday. Going and coming from Ocean Isles Beach you will travel at one point, no lie, one mile an hour for two miles. If you drive there, stay off the main routes.
One last thing Lowes Foods, great place they have the number of employees to handle the mass of people, hats off to you.

Owners response:
We are in full agreement that this is a very nice property. The unit is inspected before and after each rental to insure the highest quality maintenance. I stayed there with my father the week before this guest's visit and the home and the beach was lovely as always. We have had 100% positive input from all guests.
Guest comments:
• The AC issue was reported to our property manager, Cooke Realty, Sunday morning and was corrected that afternoon with under a 6 hour turn around.
• Palmettos live outdoors in all tropical climates, can fly and are attracted to light. It is misleading to suggest otherwise.
• The Islander Villas is no longer gated and the property description has been updated.
• The location of the community pool, restaurant and exercise facilities (.4 miles 5 minute walk) was communicated to the guest prior to arrival.
• The short beach access walkway across the dunes is 100 yards (3 minute walk), was communicated accurately, and is clearly visible from internet available satellite pictures …..not 300+;
Many families visiting Ocean Isle Beach have stayed at our beach home and had wonderful vacations. It is unfortunate that these visitors obviously did not enjoy their stay at this very beautiful and popular beach destination.

We had a great golf week - we could stay for a month and not play all the courses we want to try. A round at Rivers Edge, dinner and drinks at Sharkeys, and a great night sleep in your great place - heaven!

This Labor Day was a family get-away with our parents and children. We've never been to OIB and our only regret is that we didn't stay the week. Your place is great - clean and bright and just a short walk to the beach. We love your sunflower paintings and pictures. We never want to leave!

(KFVS) Some say Memorial Day marks the unofficial start to grilling season, so how about trying something new this year?
If you've never used a charcoal chimney starter, let me 'try it before you buy it.' I enlisted the help of a grill master, K103 Radio Host Kent Crider.
He has used charcoal chimney starters before, and says it should live up to its promise of eliminating lighter fluid and fast-lighting. "Nobody likes the taste of that lighter fluid, when it doesn't burn off well."
The charcoal chimney starter promises you won't be dousing the flames with fluid any longer with this contraption. "Especially when it rains," explains Kent. "A lot of people douse the fluid on there to keep the fire going."
Kent Crider of K103 isn't your average weekend griller. He's been actively barbecuing and grilling for the last several years now, frequenting BBQ competitions and the like so, it's no surprise he has a method to his masterpieces, starting with the way he lights the grill.
His first step. roll newspaper - not the glossy inserts - into the bottom of the chimney starter. Don't wad it up. Kent says that'll allow the flames to burn more evenly.
Pour the charcoal into the top, till its about three-fourths full, and light away. Kent even has a trusty lighter to do the job he calls Pyro the Pig.
All laughs aside, do be careful not to put this Chimney Starter on a wood deck or other burnable surface.
In about ten minutes or so, the charcoals should spark and our flames should be ready. We take the break to let the grill master share one of his grilling "secrets". Kent says good charcoal is key. He prefers Kingsford, especially the new briquettes with bits of hickory added in. He also likes the bigger lump coals which he says burn longer and hold more heat in. Plus, their bigger size means you don't use as many, which can be cost-effective.
Back to the task at hand, the flames are flaring and the charcoal's smokin'. "You try to catch 'em when they're glowing." We did and now it's time to pour the coals into the pit. And again there is no need for lighter fluid. "This way you can control it and not have to douse it and end up getting rid of that flavor."
Kent adds you might wear a sleeve or thermal glove because this contraption does get hot. Another ten minutes later, our hot dogs are grilled to perfection without sans the lighter fluid taste. "I give it an A plus. Normally, it's ten dollars for these, so if you like to grill, you need one or two!"
So why not go with the grill master. The $10 Charcoal Chimney Starter from Wal-Mart grills to perfection earning a coveted A+ on this Does it Work test.
By the way, you can catch Kent Crider weekdays on K103 mornings and also his weekend oldies show!

Russia enters the final match of Group A play needing just a draw to go to the quarterfinals, and they're taking a slight chance because of it. First choice midfielder Konstantin Zyryanov, who is 34 years old, is being rested in favor of Denis Glushakov. There's a minimal drop-off in quality, as Glushakov had a spectacular season for Lokomotiv Moscow, but he won't have the same chemistry with his teammates as Zyryanov did. Greece's changes were widely expected, and their lineup features no surprises.
Greece Lineup (4-3-3): Michail Sifakis; Giorgos Tzavellas, Kyriakos Papadopoulos, Sokratis Papastathopoulos, Vasilis Torosidis; Kostas Katsouranis, Giorgos Karagounis, Giannis Maniatis; Georgios Samaras, Theofanis Gekas, Dimitris Salpigidis.
Russia Lineup (4-3-3): Vyacheslav Malafeev; Yuri Zhirkov, Sergei Ignashevich, Aleksei Berezutski, Alexander Anyukov; Igor Denisov, Roman Shirokov, Denis Glushakov ; Andrei Arshavin, Alexander Kerzhakov, Alan Dzagoev.
Kickoff is at 2:45 p.m. ET from the National Stadium in Warsaw, Poland. You can catch the game on ESPN2 in the United States.

If San Bernardino is forced to sell off its former redevelopment properties — including the historic California Theatre and the multiplex cinema downtown — it will drive a stake through the heart of the ailing city.
State Controller John Chiang issued a report Wednesday saying the city illegally held onto $420 million of assets, including the theaters, that should have been transferred to a new agency when the state dissolved redevelopment in 2011.
After redevelopment debts are paid, the assets are to be sold off; proceeds go to schools and other agencies.
As if San Bernardino didn't have enough problems with its bankruptcy. Since last year, it also has battled the controller over whether it properly handled the redevelopment asset transfers.
Chiang said his review found $108.4 million of San Bernardino's redevelopment properties, cash and investments were inappropriately transferred to the nonprofit San Bernardino Economic Development Corp.
He also said $420.5 million in assets are still being held by the city when they should have been transferred.
Assets include the California Theatre, Regal Cinemas multiplex and Sturges Center for the Arts. The entertainment venues are the city's best hope now of reviving its struggling downtown.
Meanwhile, the bankruptcy question is going nowhere fast — on a spin cycle, as one observer put it.
Two hearings scheduled for this week were put off, while creditors hound the city for reams of documents they apparently hope will show it is hiding money.
A big problem now is that the city has lost the two people most knowledgeable about its finances: Interim City Manager Andrea Travis-Miller and Finance Director Jason Simpson both resigned last month.
And the city doesn't have money to staff up in order to move the bankruptcy proceedings along more quickly.
Karol Denniston, a Bay Area lawyer who helped draft the state's municipal bankruptcy rules, said it would help if the creditors would coordinate their requests so that the city isn't bombarded with multiple demands for the same documents.
So far, the creditors remain in their silos rather than working together, she said. "Maybe they're all happy to sit there and watch (the city) implode."
The creditors question whether the city's case even belongs in bankruptcy court. If they succeed in getting it thrown out, the city would descend into "functional chaos," Denniston said.
The longer the legal battles drag on, the less money there will be to go around.
The creditors will be left to fight over what little remains, like hyenas ripping apart a carcass.
While the understaffed city struggles to meet the demands for documents, the issue of whether the case belongs in bankruptcy court was put on hold. "Since then, this case has been in spin cycle," Denniston said.
She is closely watching the case because it's a living laboratory for how a Chapter 9 municipal bankruptcy works in California.
So far, she said, "San Bernardino is a poster child of what doesn't work."

"I learned the value of hard work by working hard." - Margaret Mead
Labor Day is Monday.
The only reason you probably know that is because you get an extra day off work (hopefully), or your kids don't have school that day.
For many of us, Labor Day is the symbolic end of summer. (Can someone please pass the Kleenex?)
However, in terms of a "holiday," Labor Day probably doesn't mean much to you.
But, it should.
Labor Day is a public holiday held in honor of working people.

Coinciding with World Contraception Day, former President Bill Clinton announced on Wednesday a new agreement that will reduce the price of long-acting birth control for millions of women worldwide. The trade deal, announced jointly with the Clinton Foundation and several world leaders at the UN, will cut the price of Bayer-manufactured progestrogen implants by half or more in exchange for a six-year purchasing commitment. Clinton described the arrangement as "a very big deal, and it will play itself out over and over again in the lives of citizens who will be safe, who will have healthier families and who will live longer lives." — Nate Niemann

In a battle of nationally ranked teams, the New Mexico Lobos (No. 25 AP) outlasted the UNLV Runnin' Rebels (No. 24 AP) 65-60 in a grinding, defensive game at The Pit in Albuquerque, N.M.
The Senior Women Split Two, Steve Nash, Harouna Mutombo and a Lot More in Canadian Content.
If you don't already know, Birch is on the way to UNLV for next season and he recently opened up about his experience at Pitt to a few of the Pittsburgh area media outlets and it wasn't pretty. He essentially is saying not so flattering things about the players and paints a picture of the program that is not good. The only question that I had when I read this earlier this morning is, Why? I'm not sure this was the best move for Khem but he did it anyway. There is obvious frustration on his part about being there if he were to come out and say these comments but why now? Why feel the need to air it out in the local media? Anyway, I just hope he can turn his young collegiate career around because if he can't this will be a point of reference for many.
This news broke out late last night and I figured I'd post the link now. It came down to Florida and UNLV and Khem Birch, the highly prized reclassified-early-to-go-to-PItt-only-to-transfer-ten-games-later forward is heading to Las Vegas. I personally thought that he would end up at Gonzaga since his friend Kevin Pangos was already there plus the team has had NCAA Tournament success. On top of that, Coach Mark Few has had been able to turn guys into very good players. Obviously that wasn't enough and Birch is heading to the glitz and glamour of the Strip. He fits in well with the currently UNLV system of run and run and he'd likley be able to play between the four and five spots, possibly even the three if he can get his perimeter game up to snuff (don't expect that anytime soon though). The big question I have is whether he can handle the pressure there. UNLV is in a city of many distractions outside basketball and the spotlight will be intense since he's the last All American on the campus in apparently 25 years. There are rumours that Shabazz Mohammed, the highly coveted high school senior is looking favorably at UNLV now that Birch is signed so maybe this could be the turnaround that the Rebels need to get back to the top of the NCAA like they were at in the 90s with LJ, Plastic Man and company. Regardless, we wish him the best of luck here. And I don't need to remind you that it's now a sink or swim situation for him. This is his last D1 stop if he plays a game so it has to work this time.

Scattered Clouds
14 of 51
Standing under the blasting Louisiana sun at the closing of Jazz Fest with the Neville Brothers is a spiritual experience, according to many. I might not go that far, though I've closed 11 years at that stage and I believe the 2008 "return home" might be singly one of the greatest moments ever to musically grace the stages at the Fair Grounds, and that's full well knowing the acts that have played there for decades.
Within a whisper of suggesting "Yellow Moon" or even "Fiyo on the Bayou" – both incredible records in their own right -- before I met this recording. (I openly admit I'm an easy sucker for live recordings, think Allman Brothers "Live at the Fillmore East".)
The recording has it all: The great harmonizing that would become the band's signature, deep soul, great ballads, solid numbers and that the unique funky sound that these four brothers create when brought together and make them an essential part of city's musical DNA, all of this done in New Orleans' holiest of live music spots. This recording has the sound of a band ready to take off, headed for the big time, which they were.
Get in your time machine. It's 1982, the city is in the midst of a musical renaissance, the Neville Brothers are barely five years old, in their prime, and for two September nights the band created magic at Tipitina's – a few blocks of Art's house on Valence Street.
What more could you want?

A Phoenix meat shop suffered massive damage and a "person of interest" was hospitalized after a suspicious fire early Thursday morning.
Phoenix firefighters were greeted by flames up to 100 feet high when they arrived at MJ Carniceria and Restaurant at 1217 W. Hatcher Rd. just after 3:30 a.m., said Larry Nunez of the Phoenix Fire Department.
Firefighters also found a person with a fractured leg on the ground near the building, Nunez said.
"He apparently told someone he was trying to look for someone in the roof area," Nunez said.
He added that firefighters were not sure in what area of the restaurant the person was injured or whether he worked there. He was taken to a nearby hospital, Nunez said.
Firefighters were forced to back out of the building by heavy smoke and flames, and the roof collapsed just after the firefighters got out, Nunez said.
The cause of the fire was still under investigation, Nunez said.
No other information was immediately available.

This week I'm going to tell you about a strange story I read on the Pilot's Weekly blog the other day (at least I think it did, it was a bizarre story so not sure if I dreamt it or not!)
Apparently, the story goes, a private pilot was flying a 10 seater private light aircraft back into Phoenix airport late in June 2012. The plane's instrument panel develop a fault and although the pilot still had fully navigational functionality he had lost the ability to make radio contact with the control tower in Phoenix.
The co-pilot, then this is the strange thing, announced that he had brought with him a digital baby monitor (an Angelcare AC1000 video baby monitor to be precise). The co-pilot then proceeded to find a channel on which to communicate with air traffic control and safely land the plane much to the relief of the crew and passengers.
This sounded (a) too much of coincidence to me and (b) not very believable. So I decided to do my own research on Baby Monitor Centre and purchase a suitable digital baby monitor (not a waste as I needed one as a gift for my cousin anyway). Now the site did not list a suitable monitor for air-to-ground communications so I purchase a Motorola MBP36 (even came with a video connection) as this had the best baby monitor reviews.
Did it work? Well I left the bay monitor on in the office of the small local airport and I could communicate with the guys on the ground until I left the runway then lost contact.
Good story anyway!

WASHINGTON, Ill. -- Among those helping the residents of Washington pick up the pieces of the lives, literally, are members of the "First Response Team of America".
They use their heavy equipment to move debris, allowing homeowners to clear their lots, and in some cases find belongings otherwise buried under hundreds of pounds of rubble.
Monday, they were able to find something special for one Washington resident.
As they cleared what remained of a home, a cat poked its head out.
Baccus, the pet of Lindsay DuBois, had been buried in the remains of the house for 24 hours..
"About an hour ago, we found our first cat, Nia, and now this is Baccus. They're both perfectly okay, totally scared, and don't seem to have any major injuries," said Lindsay DuBois, cat rescued.
Tad Agoglia, founder of First Responders, said he was happy that equipment donated to his team by Caterpillar could be brought back to help in Central Illinois.

When the opportunity presented itself to fish Saginaw Bay at Mark Martins Ice Fishing Vacation School, it meant two things. One, knocking one of the ice fishing lakes off my bucket list and, two, missing my 26th consecutive sturgeon spearing season on Lake Winnebago.
Most people in my neck of the woods could never lay down the spear in exchange for a rod and reel, but an opportunity like this just doesnt present itself every day! So, with a little planning and 500 miles later I arrived in Bay City, Michigan ready to take on Lake Hurons, Saginaw Bay.
Bay City is exactly like a person would envision every Midwestern town. It was clean, seemingly quiet and full of friendly people willing to help at every turn. With a population of roughly 35,000, this charming riverside community is filled with boutiques, eateries and a wonderful historic district, but the most important aspect of this town for me was is close proximity to the mighty walleye.
Saginaw Bay is teaming with trout, salmon, perch and walleye but this wasnt always the case. As is the story of so many Great Lake ports, pollution had left the area nearly devoid of fish. The trout and salmon where the first species take hold in Saginaw and walleyes followed years later with a little innovation from the locals.
Every year a meager amount of walleyes were raised in nearby highway water retention ponds and dumped into the bay with great skepticism by most! It wasnt until several years after planting those fingerlings that commercial fishermen were noticing catches of walleyes in their nets. Today, a creel census by the Michigan DNR shows roughly 173,000 walleyes are harvested by traditional angling methods. Thats not bad for the walleyes humble beginnings in the bay.
The first day of the school is always full of seminars conducted by Marks pro staff. They also assist students in setting up their fishing equipment. Proper line, swivels and hooks are a must when tangling with Saginaw bay eyes.
After a day of informational seminars and a trip to Franks Great Outdoors sporting goods store, the students and media members were ready for three days of ice fishing on the bay. Similar to Wisconsin, old man winter had a death grip on the Saginaw bay area which helped form thirty inches of ice.
Travel on the bay was ideal other than the perfectly formed moguls which would have put any ski run in Sochi, Russia to shame. As the sun crept over the horizon each day, twenty snowmobiles and ATVs lumbered and bounced over miles of frozen water to our fishing destination.
As the augers became silent, the pro staff and students assembled their temporary ice village and began fishing. The school would return to shore ten hours later and share the results of the day at a banquet style meal at the Village Inn located in Linwood, MI. Fishing brought mixed results over the three day trip for pro staff and students. Although we never really laid the lumber to the walleyes, everyone had a story about a fish they caught or unique account of something that happened as their day unfold.
One student was so excited over feeling his first walleye tug on the line, as he set the hook, his cell phone flopped into a minnow bucket. He retrieved his still working phone and it made for one of the best stories of the evening.
Over the course of my stay I listened to the participants at meal time and it became clear that everyone had gathered important information which helped them catch fish. Many students talked about the seminar information such as using minnow tails, glow lures or small treble hooks as part of their success. A fair number of walleye from 15- to 18-inches were caught with a few weighing over 3 lbs. A day of pre-fishing with the pro staff netted several 5 lbs. fish with one over 7 lbs. An employee at one of the local bait shops in the area reported a walleye tipping the scales at over 13.5 lbs. which was caught in the same area that the school was fishing.
Professional angler Mark Martin has run his ice fishing vacation schools for nearly 25 years. It was the schools 22nd time visiting Saginaw Bay.
I think most people that are new to ice fishing underestimate the conditions when fishing big water. This place is so hard on things and really puts my equipment to the test. said Martin. I have a great Pro Staff and so many fantastic sponsors that also help pull this off. Without them, none of this could be possible.

Greensburg —
Greensburg Elementary School (GES) had 366 projects with four sections; earth and space, physical science, co-physical science, life science, as well as an overall champion in the third grade in Monday's science fair program.
Science specialist, Linda Kramer, said there were an immense amount of entries for physical science, and only two entries from the fifth grade in earth and space, which led to creating the co-physical section. According to Kramer, the 21 judges were having a hard time deciding on grand champions.
"The kids did excellent," said Kramer. "They gained a lot of valuable research; they did an awesome job presenting. Our judges were impressed."
The champions are as follows:
3rd Grade Overall Champion- Kamian Taylor.
4th Grade Earth and Space Science Champion- Avery Gould; 4th Grade Life Science Champion- Shannon Pake; 4th Grade Physical Science Champion- Devin Winkler.
5th Grade Co-Physical Science Champion- Ryan Johnson; 5th Grade Co-Physical Science Champion- Cole Nobbe; 5th Grade Life Science Champion- Avery Moore.

Monday afternoon, USA Today's Bob Nightengale tweeted:
Bud Selig's two-year extension unanimously approved by #MLB owners.
Which is a peculiar thing to report, because there were reports more than a week ago, from MLB's official Twitter feed no less, that this was a done deal then:
The MLB Club owners have voted to extend the contract of Baseball Commissioner Allan H. (Bud) Selig through the 2014 season.
Here's the explanation, or, at least, an explanation; Padres owner John Moores voted no last week:
Moores, upset that the Padres' sale was not approved, voted no, a person in the room said, speaking on condition of anonymity because the details were supposed to remain confidential.
Owners took a second vote, giving notice of the extension, but a vote that will not be effective for 10 days. The extension was approved 29-1, with Moores again voting against it.
It's not certain exactly what changed between that vote and today, allowing the vote to be announced as "unanimous", but now Bud can say it's so.

The Morehead St. Eagles suspended coach Sean Woods Friday after the coach harshly disciplined one of his players in Wednesday night's 81-70 against the eighth-ranked Kentucky Wildcats.
After senior guard Devon Atkinson collected his fifth personal foul to foul out of the game, Woods berated him heavily as the player walked back to the bench. During a timeout, Woods appeared to physically push Atkinson toward the bench, and continued to yell at the guard once he had sat down. Atkinson is averaging 7.0 points per game this season.
In a statement released Friday by the Morehead State Athletic Department, Director of Athletics Brian Hutchinson wrote:
"It is our expectation that our coaches are first teachers, who reflect the core values of the university which includes valuing the individual and treating people with respect. Near the end of the game, Coach Woods' interaction with one of our student-athletes fell short of that value and was unacceptable.
"We believe Coach Woods, while remorseful, is not above reproach. Therefore, he will be suspended for Monday night's game against Norfolk State. This will allow Coach Woods to consider his action and behavior, and allow him time to contemplate the appropriate way to conduct himself with his players and on the sideline."
Woods apologized, writing that his actions were "inappropriate and unacceptable" and promising that "anything approaching this type of situation will not happen again."
The game against Kentucky was particularly fraught with emotion for Woods, who excelled as a point guard for the Wildcats between 1988 and 1992. His college playing career culminated with the legendary NCAA Tournament regional final between Kentucky and the Duke Blue Devils where Christian Laettner sank a game-winning shot in overtime to give Duke the 104-103 win.
