LOGANSPORT — Paul Hartman, Logansport Municipal Utilities superintendent, requested consideration for a streetscape project at a Logansport redevelopment commission meeting Tuesday evening.
The project would include decorative brick, lighting, sidewalk, curb and utilities on Sixth Street from Broadway to Race Street for a total of six blocks.
"Area city leaders feel it is an important project for the downtown area," Hartman said.
The 3- to 5-year plan would cost approximately $400,000 and would come from the Downtown Tax Increment Financing (TIF) Fund, Hartman said.
Hartman said the first place he wants to take action is the area across the street from the Old Style Inn.
President of the Redevelopment Commission, Bob Bishop said that he wanted to make sure that funds weren't depleted in case senior housing gets approved later down the road and needs TIF money.
The city previously was looking to give the Farmers Market lot and adjacent Salvation Army property to developers of a planned four-story senior citizens housing complex. The board of zoning appeals recently denied senior housing in this area.
Bishop said they are hoping to get more downtown housing in the future and wants to make sure the money is there for support.
Next, Hartman will possibly seek money from the state where Ind. Highway 25 comes through on Sixth Street and prioritize the order of work to be done in the area.
Commission will consider a 3-year plan that would require one payment of $80,000 twice a year and will place the request on the agenda for the December meeting.

Santa's visit for the children on Christmas morning was an added treat for them as well as games, face painting etc. for the kids (200 of them !) The gingerbread house decorating contest was amazing....what talented and creative people !
WE had absolute SMOOOOOOTH sailing for the first 10 days....like a lake! Next couple of weeks had some "rock and rollin' " for sure. The ports of call were a delight for the most part. The Princess tours were VERY expensive and not always rated correctly as far as E--M--S. For those with mobility problems that can be and WAS an issue where excessive walking was required on what was rated E. We saw some magnificent sights...especially "Glacier Alley"...the Beagle Channel from the Skywalker's lounge. That morning was worth the cost of the entire trip! Some of the ports were rainy or heavily clouded obscuring the view of the volcanoes etc...which is a shame....but can't be helped...nature is nature. We were blessed beyond measure to have a calm sea and SUN the morning we rounded Cape Horn...something the port expert, Joe May said he had NEVER seen in his 120 trips around the Cape.
The ship food was outstanding...except for the temperature of some hot foods up in Horizon court....too tepid for fowl dishes. The entertainment was just OK....nothing to rave about....some really good....some pretty awful...some just mediocre. We happened to have a very uncaring substandard cabin steward...which is not our usual experience. Was disappointed in his performance...and we are NOT demanding kinds of passenger.
I was disappointed in the service of the photo dept. as well. At several ports they were not out taking photos as usual.
The service in the anytime dining room was usually painfully slow...almost always had to figure on a 2 hour dinner at a table for 6....not good !
There also needs to be a better informed shore excursion office and better communication skills. Overall.....I would give this cruise an 8 out of 10. WE thoroughly enjoyed ourselves, met some lovely people, ate some wonderful meals saw some awesome sights and had several truly relaxing "at sea" days.

It's vital that the End to Hostilities holds for all races and groups. We call on prisoners nationwide to draft up their own demands, tailored to their own individual institutional needs, to be served on CDCR and their prison wardens – I would get started on them now. We are giving CDCR a deadline to meet all of the demands, or else we are going to resume our peaceful hunger strike and work stoppage starting on July 8, 2013. All U.S. prisoners are asked to pick up the flag of solidarity and join us.

INSPIRED: THE VOICES AGAINST PROP 8 DVD Coming 12/4
On the heels of the historic reelection of President Barack Obama and marriage equality advancing in four more states, director Charlie Gage is proud to announce the DVD release of INSPIRED: THE VOICES AGAINST PROP 8. The film will be available on DVD December 4th (SRP $24.99) from Garden Thieves Pictures.
Inspired: The Voices Against Prop 8 is a documentary film chronicling several people's lives in the wake of the passage of Proposition 8 in 2008. Arresting live footage follows average people from all walks of life, inspired to action in ways they never dreamed. Experience the passionate rallies and defiant marches of the new gay rights movement as it swept through Southern California. Intimate interviews reveal all the ways the movement comes together, and the subtle and not-so-subtle ways it can be pulled apart from within.
Inspired goes behind the headlines and propaganda to explore the real people who make up a movement. The film is an examination of people who were inspired to stand up for gay rights and civil rights when that infamous proposition passed. Twenty-seven people from teenagers to professional adults, from a lawyer to a prison guard to a reverend are interviewed about how their lives changed on November 4, 2008.
In a time when marriage equality is struggling to win over the hearts and minds of mainstream America, this film serves as a powerful tool to go beyond the sound bites.
INSPIRED: THE VOICES AGAINST PROP 8 (Official Trailer)
Inspired introduces the audience to the real people behind the movement, and lets them speak firsthand about their hopes and wishes. In addition to the men, women and families impacted by Prop 8, the film also captures the opinions of equality advocates such as Lady Gaga, Drew Barrymore, Darryl Stephens ("DTLA"), Cleve Jones (AIDS Memorial Quilt), Matt Lucas (Bridesmaids), LA Councilman Bill Rosendahl, LA Mayor
Antonio Villaraigosa and Cynthia Nixon ("Sex and the City").

I saw this movie on an airplane, which is the only reason I bothered to watch it in the first place. It is a very well done movie, but I found it to drag on and to be rather boring. Perhaps I'm simply not old enough to appreciate the film, as it has come very highly recommended from people I trust.November 28th, 2012 · Details2 Thanks ·
In my opinion, the best film thus far of 2012. I say 16+ simply because I think the theme of the film may be too sophisticated for kids and most teens. I love the mantra that the film is built around.."In the end, it all works out perfectly, and if it's not perfect, then it's not the end." The film follows Western retirees as they move to India to retire elegantly on the cheap. As that stage of life does, they each come to the hotel druing varying circumstances that life has lead them too: widowhood, marriage disillusionment, lost value in the workplace, and dealing with adult children as they begin to define their lives. The film reminds us that life is full of turns that we may not choose, but that in spite of that, we have choices in how to cope with that which we may not like, and that some choose a positive way to deal, and some are more resistant to change, but that the journey is individual in nature, but that the way we deal will affect those we love. And, as it says...in the end, it all works perfect, and if it's not perfect, it's not the end! I hope to see this film during Award Season! Worthy of a few..September 13th, 2012 · Details2 Thanks ·
Maybe you need to be on the north side of 60 to appreciate "The Best Exotic Marigold Hotel." Or maybe not.
Rich character development, a colorful setting and an interesting storyline combine to make this a delightful peek into the lives of British retirees who leave rainy England for the promises of warmer weather and lower costs in a wonderful hotel catering to the elderly.
While the hotel isn't quite as advertised, the retirees find that life can still offer some surprises -- some wonderful and others not so much.
There are some sexual situations and one use of the f-word, so "Marigold" does earn its PG-13 rating. But it's refreshing to see a movie that doesn't rely on aliens or multiple explosions to make its point. These regular people are fascinating, even exotic, in their own right.June 12th, 2012 · Details2 Thanks ·
Wonderful! But younger people don't understand this movie at all. A great example of older people fighting to live a fulfilling life. It takes courage to embrace life at all ages!November 27th, 2012 · Details1 Thank ·
I watched this movie on the Clearplay DVD player, so I am not sure if my rating estimation is correct, but I do know that this movie was just plain dumb. It wasn't funny like I was expecting, mostly just drama. I stuck through to the end expecting it to get better, but the rest of my family gave up.1 Thank ·
Very well acted film. Makes you ponder on what is really important in your life. There is a message to really look at traditions and see if they are limiting and need to be broken or changed. Speaking of traditions there is a hidden message that traditional families don't work which bothered me a bit. But I would still recommend see this movie.June 29th, 2012 · Details1 Thank ·
...offers a mixed, and problematic, moral message about the "golden" years, as crusty old fogeys let their hair down -- and unleash their libidos... The film contains a benign view of premarital sex and homosexual acts, partial nudity, gruesome images of a corpse, some sexual innuendo and occasional rough language... Read full review here
So no points for originality. Madden tries to make up for this with sheer British acting personality and nearly succeeds. They might not be doing groundbreaking work here, but Dench, Nighy, Wilkinson and the rest are doing what they are given to do very well... "The Best Exotic Marigold Hotel" winds up playing like the coming together of a supergroup of classic rockers that never manages to live up to the individual work. Parts of it are catchy, but it doesn't quite rock... Read full review here
The Best Exotic Marigold Hotel is a refreshing, mature fairy tale with a top-notch ensemble cast... The audience also will fall under its spell, spun mostly by the venerable actors, easily some of the U.K.'s best... The story ties up neatly, in the happily-ever-after vein of fairy tales... Read full review here
Seeing the impeccable performances of this magnificent cast is reason enough to see the film... there is something more than the kind of bittersweet but cozy story of plucky septuagenarians... Parents should know that this film includes some strong language (f-word), sexual references (gay and straight) and partial nudity, sad death, and drinking... Read full review here
The story is light-footed and cheerful for the most part.. Events move along so engagingly that they sneak up on a few surprisingly touching developments... Read full review here
...there's something comfortable -- and comforting -- about all this.... Marigold Hotel achieves what it sets out to do: Sell something safe and sweet, in a vivid foreign setting, to an underserved share of the moviegoing market... Read full review here
Excellent movie! Great characters, good story, and funny in parts. Just good clean fun.
loved it, both david and i ... british humour and it's funny ...November 2nd, 2012 · Details
Definitely a movie that makes you think about your life, what you have done, would like the change, and the kind of legacy you want to leave behind. Not an action, special effects, good vs. bad guys movie, it is a mix of real life drama, combined with humor. The cast is remarkable, the plot is genuine, I like how the stories of the different people in the group develop, how each deals with their own past, does their best to face their fears and challenges and tries to enjoy every minute of this new and exotic experience. It is an eye opener to the simple pleasures of life that we many times take for granted and a come back to enjoying and making the best with what you are given. I rate it a PG-13 because there is one unnecessary F-word in there and some sexual conversations and innuendos not appropriate for younger audiences.June 19th, 2012 · Details

Jamie Halifax charged with knifepoint robberies in Brighton
Updated 9:05am Friday 10th January 2014 in News By Anna Roberts, Crime reporter
A man has been charged with knifepoint street robberies in Brighton and South London.
Jamie Halifax, 25, of Lewes Road, Brighton is due to appear in custody at Brighton Magistrates' Court today charged with two robberies in Brighton, on January 5 and 8 and with a robbery in Sutton on September 21 last year.
He is also charged with an attempted robbery in Brighton on January 9, and with possession of an offensive weapon, a knife, during all four incidents.
The first Brighton incident happened when a 19-year-old who woman was walking in St Martin's Place, off Lewes Road, at 4.15am on Sunday was approached by a man from behind who demanded she hand over her purse.
When she said she had none he said he would walk her to a cashpoint but he fled with only her cashcard after seeing a group of people nearby.
The second Brighton incident happened at 10.20pm on Wednesday when a man threatened a 22-year-old woman in Windmill Street and ran off with her handbag.
In the third Brighton incident at 1.45am on Thursday a 25-year-old woman was approached by a man in Lincoln Street at the junction with Islingword Road who threatened her and demanded that she hand over her handbag.
The woman screamed and the man ran off empty handed.
In the Sutton incident a man was robbed at knifepoint of bank cards, cash and a mobile phone.

Sometimes it's the simple, everyday things, done exquisitely well, that are the most impressive. Take meatballs, for instance.
Not just any meatballs. I'm talking about the meatballs at Saucy, the down-home Italian restaurant you've been looking for.
It's right in the middle of downtown Ukiah. There, executive chef Mitch Mount makes what he calls Nana's Meatballs ($8 ****). If only Nana made them this good.
Three meatballs, each the size of a lemon, are made with a mixture of ground beef and pork. Most meatballs, especially ones that combine two or more meats, are dense and even rubbery from being overworked, so the fine structure of the fresh-ground meats is lost. Not these beauties. They are tender, light, almost airy, and juicy with the meat's own juices.
Better yet, they are drowned in chef Mount's house-made marinara sauce, a sauce so rich and tomato-y that I would have bet it was made by someone's Italian grandmother who started her pot bubbling at 5 o'clock in the morning so the sauce could be ready by 9 o'clock in the evening.
Saucy also gives you some attitude with your food and drink. The few Spartan tables in the main room have a total of just 14 hard metal chairs, with seven more metal stools at the counter, more seats up a flight of steps, and a few seats outside. Be a little pushy; I waited quietly for 20 minutes before being asked if I wanted water or anything else to drink.
There are 15 beers and ales on tap, ranging from light brews like Trumer Pils to black and heavy Old Rasputin Stout. Pints are $4.75, but cost a buck less during happy hours from 4 to 6 p.m. weekdays. Forrest Tancer and James Wasson are the wine program directors, or as owner Cynthia Ariosta calls them, "the resident wine geeks." Tancer and Wasson know what's delicious and well-priced, offering six wines on tap, seven by the glass, and 17 by the bottle, including the beautiful 2009 Baxter Pinot Noir from the Anderson Valley for $45, the most expensive bottle on the list and worth it. Corkage is $10 for Mendocino and Lake county bottles, $12 for everything else. The non-alcoholic beverages are first rate, too, with labels like Fentiman's, Organic Wild Poppy Juice, and Bundaberg among them.

New campus restaurant serves up local, sustainable cuisine
Students, faculty and staff have been flocking to the Canadian Grilling Company, the brainchild of celebrity chef Michael Smith, since the restaurant opened in Mackintosh-Corry Hall on December 1.
"We really wanted to create an opportunity for members of the Queen's community to make a choice to eat locally and sustainably," says Joli Manson, General Manager, Hospitality Services. "I really believe that quality is always the primary focus for everyone, and the quality of everything at this unique restaurant is excellent."
The eatery's mandate is to serve local, organic, sustainable, and traceable food. Everything is made on site, from the burger buns to the ketchup.
The Queen's outlet is the flagship location of what is set to become a national chain. Chef Smith has been very involved, from training frontline staff to participating in taste tests. Visitors can buy his cookbooks and other items at the restaurant and he plans to visit campus several times throughout the year.
Items on the menu include beef, chicken, salmon and veggie burgers as well as fresh-cut fries and homemade milkshakes. More than 2,200 burgers were sold during the restaurant's first two weeks of operation.
In the spring, two more retail outlets are scheduled to open on campus that should prove to be equally popular: a pharmacy and a grocery store are coming to the Queen's Centre.
To see the restaurant's hours of operation during the winter holiday period, visit the Hospitality Service website. For more information about the philosophy behind the Canadian Grilling Company, watch this video from celebrity chef Michael Smith.

Xavier Cugat (January 1, 1900 - October 27, 1990) was a Spanish-Cuban bandleader whom many consider to have had more to do with the infusion of Latin music into United States popular music than any other musician. Perez Prado followed in Cugat's footsteps. Cugat was born Francisco de Asis Javier Cugat Mingall de Bru y Deulofeo in Girona, Spain. With his family, he immigrated to Cuba when he was five. He trained as a classical violinist and played with the Orchestra of the Teatro Nacional in Havana.

FULLERTON (CNS) - Two of five men who robbed a Moreno Valley jewelry store, where a clerk was shot and wounded, remained at large today after using the Cal State Fullerton campus to escape at the end of a three-county pursuit involving five law-enforcement agencies, authorities said.
The holdup occurred about 3 p.m. Wednesday at the Empire Jewelry and Pawn Shop in the 24500 block of Sunnymead Boulevard, just south of the Moreno Valley (60) Freeway, according to the Riverside County Sheriff's Department.
Witnesses told Riverside sheriff's deputies that five men in ski masks and armed with .22- and .25-caliber handguns forced their way into the shop, robbed it and shot a clerk. The wounded man was rushed to Riverside County Regional Medical Center and was in stable condition, the Sheriff's Department reported.
Within 15 minutes of the robbery, the California Highway Patrol began pursuing the getaway vehicle, a charcoal-colored two door Lexus, as it headed west on the Moreno Valley Freeway. The chase reached speeds of 100 miles per hour through San Bernardino County and into Los Angeles County, according to the CHP.
The robbers transitioned from the Moreno Valley Freeway to the southbound Orange (57) Freeway in Diamond Bar and made their way to Fullerton, where the car chase ended on Nutwood Avenue near Mihaylo Hall at the Cal State Fullerton campus, police said.
Two suspects were taken into custody on or near the campus, but one is believed to have entered Mihaylo Hall and another, to have run south from the campus, Fullerton police Sgt. Jeff Stuart said.
A fifth suspect carjacked a motorist near the campus, stealing his compact and triggering a high-speed 20-minute chase that went west on the Artesia (91) Freeway at high speed. The carjacker exited the freeway in Compton, authorities said.
The suspect plowed through multiple intersections, with police, CHP and sheriff's units close behind. What happened after that seemed to fall under the rubric: You couldn't make up this stuff.
Clad in a white T-shirt and dark pants, the carjacker drove into the parking lot of the Imperial Courts Recreation Center near Alameda Street in Watts, bailed out and ran onto a baseball diamond, where Los Angeles police officers tackled him to the ground and arrested him.
As it turned out, the man had picked a bad spot as his portal to freedom; Los Angeles police Chief Charlie Beck and other members of his department were at the complex at the time, distributing gifts to children as part of a toy drive.
"He was an unlucky crook to pick that field," Cmdr. Andrew Smith, an LAPD spokesman who was at the park, told the Los Angeles Times. "He had sheriff's on one side and police on the other with nowhere to go."
At Cal State Fullerton, meanwhile, an estimated 10,000 people, mostly students, were stranded on the campus for more than seven hours Tuesday, hundreds of them in the rain, as Orange County sheriff's and North County SWAT teams, whose members are drawn from several departments, searched for two of the suspects, said Stuart.
Witnesses told reporters they had seen a suspect run frantically toward Mihaylo Hall, then walk calmly inside, mixing with the crowd. Not finding the suspect, police cleared Mihaylo Hall around 10 p.m., allowing approximately 400 students who had been inside to leave, according to Stuart.
The other suspect evaded a building-by-building search, Stuart said.
Finally, around midnight, police announced via Twitter that those remaining on campus were free to leave.

Here's a look at a key matchup heading into Sunday's Week One battle between the Falcons and Bears:
Falcons DEs John Abraham and Ray Edwards vs. Bears' pass protection on the edges
The Bears' struggle to keep opposing pass rushers from driving Jay Cutler into the turf was an issue throughout last season, as Cutler was sacked a league-high 52 times. Chicago has a new starting tackle duo in 2011 — second-year veteran J'Marcus Webb has shifted to left tackle after starting 12 games at right tackle in 2010, and rookie first-round pick Gabe Carimi will start on the right side. They face a tough test right off the bat, especially in one-on-one pass-rushing matchups.
The Falcons signed Edwards, a former Viking, this offseason to help them become more explosive off the edge and provide Abraham, an All-Pro in two of the past three seasons, with a more capable complement. Edwards missed a good chunk of time in August as he recovered from offseason knee surgery, but he returned to play in the final two preseason games, and the Falcons are expecting him to make an immediate impact. Kroy Biermann will also be involved in the rotation at defensive end.
The key for the Bears will be making sure their two young tackles have help when it's needed.
Chicago's coaching staff has had plenty of time to prepare a plan for containing the pressure off the edge, and Abraham told me last month he expects that keeping him in check will be a top priority. Abraham deserves to have more attention paid to him — he's one of the league's elite pass rushers. Focusing on him, however, could free up Edwards. The Bears will use their tight ends to help the tackles if necessary, and RBs Matt Forté and Marion Barber are both capable of chipping pass rushers to keep Cutler upright.
It's possible Webb and Carimi will not find themselves matched up one-on-one against Abraham or Edwards all that often, but good footwork will be essential for the tackles to keep up with Atlanta's athletic pass rushers. Webb's technique has been a bit inconsistent, and Abraham will look to use his speed and collection of pass-rush moves to keep Webb off balance.

Beach Haven will soon get $3,643,769 for debris removal and cleanup resulting from Hurricane Sandy, U.S. Sens. Frank R. Lautenberg and Robert Menendez, both D-N.J., accounced Friday.
The two senators announced the second round of federal funding to help reimburse New Jersey municipalities for cleanup work completed in the wake of Sandy.
This round of funding includes more than $12.9 million in Federal Emergency Management Agency funding to reimburse local governments for debris removal in Middletown, Howell, Eatontown, Asbury Park, Long Branch, and Beach Haven.
In the wake of Superstorm Sandy, local governments acted quickly to keep families and communities safe, and this federal funding will help ease the burden of recovery costs for municipalities, said Lautenberg, vice chairman of the Senate Appropriations Subcommittee on Homeland Security, which funds FEMA.
"These federal grants will help municipalities recover, but there is much more work to be done to ensure that our state can rebuild stronger than ever. We will continue working with state and local governments to provide federal resources for cities and towns across New Jersey," he said.
FEMA is reimbursing local governments for the following debris removal costs:
- $4,062,255 for Middletown
- $1,312,500 for Howell
- $1,506,000 for Eatontown
- $1,399,012 for Asbury Park
- $3,643,769 for Beach Haven
- $1,055,475 for Long Branch
FEMA awards these grants on a rolling basis after receiving applications from the state, which coordinates the process with local governments. These grants are the second of more rounds of municipal FEMA reimbursements to be announced.

Students and parents of Fresno, Calif. schools finally got a chance to celebrate vocational careers in the working trades at a career fair that offers an alternate to "college night" for students. "College is a choice," say Jim Yovino, Fresno county schools superintendent, "We have to remember it is just one choice to success. The honorable work that people do with their hands ... is also a great choice." Participants at the career fair said it was important to overcome the misconception that vocational education is for students who are not bright enough for college. Watch the video.

A Sarasota condo was damaged Tuesday morning after a fire broke out on the 12th floor, and investigators believe it may have been drug related.
It's unclear what started the fire, but deputies tell us the hazardous materials team was also called out.
The situation unfolded at the Lido Regency building on Lido Key.
The Sarasota County Sheriff's Office says it is investigating a possible meth lab in the unit.
Seven firefighters had to be taken to the hospital because of chemical exposure, and it was so great that even the hazardous materials team had to be pulled from the building.
Some complained of sickness and lightheadedness.
"There were a lot of people in the building at the time, but none were injured," said Capt. Susan Pearson of the Sarasota Fire Department.
After firefighters were able to get the blaze under control, investigators found oxygen containers and other chemicals in the unit where the fire started.
Fire rescue crews say there is extensive water damage on the 12th floor, as well as in the lobby, after the water came down through the building.
Residents were out of their condos for about seven hours. Some were allowed back in if they didn't have too much damage from smoke or water.
As for the person who lived in Unit 12B, police say they know who it is, but haven't located him yet.
Residents say they don't know much about him.
"I don't know him personally. He was renting, and I know he was a young man because I could see from my unit down. He was on the balcony numerous times," said resident Ursula Brenk.
Residents of the 12th floor were advised to stay elsewhere, but as of Tuesday evening, everyone else in the building was allowed back in.

"Buffalo Soldiers" is a nickname originally applied to members of the 10th Calvary Regiment by the Native American tribes they fought. This African American Regiment has a proud history dating from 1866 until the middle of the Korean War when it was integrated into other regiments.
Mellie Arps fought as a Buffalo Soldier in World War Two, from Italy into Berlin. He was awarded two Bronze Stars for his bravery and came back home to become minister and Mason.

SALISBURY, Md. - It's been a long four years for Brooke Mulford and her mother Amy. First the rigorous search for a cure for neuroblastoma, then a clinical trial breakthrough, and now a relapse followed by recent scans showing no signs of improvement.
"She's been getting bad headaches from it. They're pretty excruciating for her. They make her vomit and it's pretty debilitating for her when it happens," said Amy.
Brooke's relapse also comes with a ticking clock. At just 8-years-old, she's faced with a less than five percent rate of survival, but she's living each day to the fullest.
"She's just a bundle of energy still. She doesn't let too much keep her down," said her mom.
Amy says she has the community to thank for that.
"We went to this fundraiser thing and they actually had something they were auctioning off for me for someone to take me on a cruise," said Brooke.
"Everyday that we're in this town, walking around, somebody does something nice for us, it blows my mind," said Amy.
When they're not in Salisbury, they're at the Children's Hospital Of Philadelphia, where Amy says some of the best doctors in the country are doing everything they can. "Right now there's no good options out there. There's nothing out there proven to help anyone."
Raising funds for research is their only hope for a cure, which is exactly what Tuesday's Shorebirds verses Seagulls game will help with. Brooke is getting ready to fire up the first pitch, and showed WMDT her skills.
"One right back to the pitcher," said Brooke.
Brooke is excited to kickoff the exhibition game at Perdue Stadium in Salisbury. The Delmarva Shorebirds take on the Salisbury Seagulls Tuesday night at 7:05 p.m. There will be a silent and Chinese auction, and the proceeds from the game go to the "Brooke Mulford Foundation."
For just $5 a ticket, you could help support pediatric cancer research, and help Brooke find a cure.

How prevalent is pancreatic cancer?What are the symptoms?Can pancreatic cancer be detected early?What are the risk factors?If any medical treatments are ordered by my doctor, will my insurance cover them?Who is part of the treatment team?
According to the American Cancer Society, men and women in the United States have a 1 in 79 chance of getting pancreatic cancer in their lifetime. Due to the fact that most pancreatic cancers are found in late stages, it is the fourth leading cause of cancer death.
Pancreatic cancer is considered a "silent" disease because its symptoms are unnoticeable until the disease has progressed. Symptoms of more advanced pancreas cancer include:
There are currently no screening tests or pancreatic cancer, however, people with a family history of pancreatic, colon or ovarian cancer may choose to undergo genetic testing to determine their risk of getting pancreatic cancer.
Depending on the type of coverage, most commercial insurance carriers will pay the major share of the cost. You should always consult your insurance company to determine proper coverage.
The team at Advocate Christ Medical Center is staffed by a specially trained team of gastroenterologist, medical oncologists, radiation oncologists, surgeons, genetics counselors and nurses, who are dedicated to caring for patients with gastrointestinal cancer. You will remain under the care of your primary care physician while you are treated by the specialists at Christ Medical Center. To ensure that your physician is kept up-to-date, our team will provide ongoing reports on the progress you have made.

LOS ANGELES (CNS) – A state appeals court panel today upheld the conviction of a former Highland Park resident who murdered two friends and left their bodies in a car he abandoned on a Pasadena street, then carjacked a woman who tried to fight him off because her puppy was in her car.
The three-justice panel from California's 2nd District Court of Appeal rejected Manuel Penaloza's claim that there was insufficient evidence of premeditation and deliberation.
Penaloza was convicted in September 2011 of first-degree murder for the execution-style slayings of Francisco Regalado and Joe Malta, with jurors finding true the special circumstance allegation of multiple murders.
Jurors also convicted Penaloza of carjacking a woman after crashing the vehicle he was driving, along with grand theft of Regalado's 1992 Honda Accord. The jury acquitted Penaloza of the attempted murder of the carjacking victim, along with a charge that he had kidnapped Regalado.
"Appellant, who had a prior relationship with the decedents, was bothered by remarks they made. Both decedents were unarmed, and neither had threatened appellant or had presented legally sufficient provocation. Appellant, using a firearm in his bedroom, shot both at close range, execution- style, each one above the eye," Associate Justice Patti S. Kitching wrote on behalf of the panel.
Police found the bodies of Regalado and Malta in Regalado's car, which was abandoned on San Rafael Boulevard after the Honda Accord crashed.
In a letter read on her behalf in court at Penaloza's sentencing last November, the carjacking victim wrote that her life was "changed forever" after she tried to do the right thing by trying to help Penaloza after he crashed the vehicle he was driving.
"He brutally attacked me, left me for dead and kidnapped my dog," Heidi Muenzenmaye wrote. "Manuel Penaloza, you will never hurt anyone again."
During the trial, Muenzenmayer testified that the man she described as having "eyes that were so evil I couldn't imagine" was going toward her 40th anniversary Ford Mustang, which contained her 12-week-old Australian shepherd puppy. She said she struggled with Penaloza for control of the car and made the choice to stay in the vehicle "because he wasn't getting away with my puppy."
Penaloza took off in the Mustang, reaching speeds of 55 to 65 mph and elbowing her in the chest in an effort to dislodge her as she was halfway out of the vehicle, she testified.
"He kept saying 'Get out, get out.' He kept swerving back and forth. He kept hitting things to try to throw me out of the car," she told jurors, noting that the car struck a brick wall about 300 to 400 feet away from where the vehicle was taken and that she couldn't hang on any longer.
"The last thing I screamed at him was 'Please don't kill my dog,"' she said, noting that she was later notified that her pet had been found safe. She said she suffered injuries to her face, left arm and right foot — the latter of which involved her losing a portion of her heel.
Penaloza's trial attorney, Manuel Lopez, said at his client's sentencing that Penaloza was "carrying a lot of mental baggage" and that his girlfriend and unborn baby had been killed in front of him by gang members. He said Penaloza was "very remorseful." Penaloza — who is serving two consecutive life prison terms without the possibility of parole plus 62 years and eight months to life — was extradited from Mexico after authorities got a tip that he was hiding in a small town in Guerrero, where he was arrested in August 2009. He had been profiled on the television show "America's Most Wanted."

CHARLESTON, W.Va. (AP) -- Groups representing West Virginia teachers and school workers continue to press lawmakers to change Gov. Earl Ray Tomblin's education proposal.
Several dozen people picketed outside the state Capitol early Tuesday on behalf of these groups. They oppose changes to the school calendar and to teacher hiring and transfers sought by Tomblin's bill.
The Senate Education Committee heard from both these groups and others who support the bill last week. The committee is scheduled to meet Tuesday to discuss possible amendments to Tomblin's legislation.
The governor's proposal responds to an audit that contrasted West Virginia's poor student achievement scores with hefty education spending and bureaucracy. Tomblin's bill also seeks to ensure that all third-graders are reading at grade level, and that high school seniors are college- or career-ready.

Ahead of the 25th anniversary of Tiananmen Square, Nieman Reports takes an in-depth look at The State of Journalism in China and what a number of reporters are doing to cope with tight restrictions. As Chinese officials continue to block websites from around the world, jam social media postings and delete sensitive online information, domestic journalists in China are seeking ways to circumvent censors. Those who go too far risk being fired or even arrested, while foreign journalists face various forms of government intimidation and visa denials.

Today was a day to forget for Arsenal. The performance at Old Trafford today continued their streak of bad play, especially in the final third. The players look lost and on many occasions are not on the same page as the player that is giving them the ball. They all seem to get tense when they get near the goal and then everything breaks down. But i'm not going to talk about the numerous things that Arsenal did wrong today i'm going to tell you what i think this means for Arsenal going forward. For this season I think it is over in terms of winning the title and at this point I think Arsenal will once again be happy with sitting at third at the end of the year. I think they will be able to secure a third place spot at the end of the year just like how they did last year. So what it means for Arsenal going forward for this season is that it is over and they should be happy if they finish in the top 4 but what it means for going into next season is the bigger question. I think that ultimately this could end up in Arsenal replacing Wenger if they don't turn it around. Arsenal needs a new person to take charge and actually keep the world class players that we get such as Van Persie, Fabregas, and Nasri. If we would've kept those players we would've had a team filled with quality players right now. We would've had Wilshere, Arteta, Cazorla, Walcott, Nasri, Van Persie, Podolski, Vermaelen, and if we would've kept them maybe we would have brought in other great players to join us because they wanted to play with a great team. But we didn't do that and now we are the team that the players want to leave because we have no ambition to win a title. That all started from Wenger getting rid of our good players and if we keep him he may give up more such as Cazorla and Wilshere. But I don't think it is all his fault I think that people above Wenger such as the owners wouldn't allow him to spend all the money that Wenger probably wanted to spend to make the side better. Wenger did great things for the club and brought them to where they are being considered one of the top teams in the league but I think it is time for him to pass the job onto someone new. Arsenal needs a new manager that will make the other people involved in the club let him spend the money to make them a good team. They need people that are less worried about pleasing the bank and being a business, and more worried about winning titles. That is what I believe this game and season could mean for the entire club.

Your geraniums are at peak bloom and you heard somewhere you could store them over winter – but you are wondering how?
Many of you may remember mom or grandma placing their geraniums in a paper bag in a cool dark corner of the basement for winter. It seemed she always had great luck reviving them in spring. Unfortunately most of us have warm basements that make this method the least successful.
You can bring potted plants indoors and grow them like houseplants. Unfortunately, unwanted pests may hitch a ride in with the plants. Isolate the plants in a sunny location for several weeks and monitor for pests. If an insect problem is present, make several applications of an eco-friendly insecticide.
I prefer to take cuttings from healthy plants. Remove any flowers and buds and root 4-6 inch cuttings in moist vermiculite or a well-drained potting mix. Pot up the rooted cuttings and grow them like a houseplant in a sunny window.

Goodell appoints Tagliabue to handle Saints' appeals
NFL commissioner Roger Goodell has formally recused himself from hearing the Saints' bounty appeal. Former commissioner Paul Tagliabue will step in.
Sproles is active for Sunday's game against San Francisco.||||||| Sproles had missed three straight games with a broken left hand.
Sproles had a career-high 13 receptions for 128 yards in a 35-27 loss to Carolina on Sunday.||||||| This could be the beginning of increase touches for the running back or he could regress back to the mean. Sproles has averaged 5.8 catches since joining New Orleans at the beginning of last season.
Sproles will not play in the next preseason game against Jacksonville on Friday night because knee soreness.||||||| Sproles was one of several players who sat out Monday's practice, the first since the Saints played at New England last Thursday night.
Sproles caught 15 passes for 119 yards and one TD in Saturday's 36-32 postseason loss at San Francisco.||||||| Sproles showcased his dual-threat ability with only three carries for three yards on the ground, however. He made up for it through the air by hooking up with Drew Brees.
Sproles had 40 yards rushing, 29 yards receiving and 99 yards on kickoff and punt returns during Sunday's 45-17 rout of Carolina.||||||| Sproles finished the season with an NFL record 2,696 combined yards, breaking the previous mark of 2,690, set by Derrick Mason with Tennessee in 2000. Sproles will certainly be a hot commodity heading into 2012 drafts, and is all but certain to come at a hefty price following his tremendous campaign.

Thurman Munson was much more than a tragic hero and captain of the New York Yankees' clubhouse. He was an elite catcher with a rifle for an arm and a consistently dangerous threat at the plate for a decade. To this day, it remains a rarity for catchers to do both, but Munson was simply quite talented. Munson began the '70s with American League Rookie of the Year honors, and he was named an All-Star seven times. He was also the '76 AL MVP and a career .292/.346/.410 hitter with a 116 wRC+. A career 44% caught-stealing rate demonstrated that the three Gold Glove awards won were no fluke.
Even though Munson's statistical career year came in anonymity on a fourth-place Yankee squad in '73, his performance during the Yankees' AL three-peat years of '76-'78 put him on the national stage. He was a terrific playoff hitter, never batting less than .275 during the six playoff series in which he appeared. Overall, he batted .357/.378/.496 in 135 plate appearance against three great teams--the Cincinnati Reds, Los Angeles Dodgers, and the Kansas City Royals. Munson was a big reason why the Yankees never lost an ALCS to the Royals with him on the team.
Munson's finest moment in the playoffs came in '78, an atypical championship October for the Yankees in that it was overshadowed by the memorable AL East comeback and Bucky Dent's one-game playoff homer in Boston against the Red Sox. The Yankees did not magically receive the World Series title after the win at Fenway though; they had to first take down the Royals in the ALCS for the third straight season. The rivals split two in Kansas City before returning to the Bronx for Game 3.
Although he was only 25, KC third baseman George Brett was already a Yankee nemesis, and his talents were on display in Game 3. Brett tied an ALCS record with three homers in one game, taking Catfish Hunter deep on solo shots in three straight at-bats. Despite Brett's long-ball theatrics, the Yankees scored four runs off Royals starter Paul Splittorf into the top of the eighth. Flamethrowing closer Goose Gossage was in the game, but an Amos Otis double followed by a Darrell Porter single tied it up. A few batters later, Porter had moved to third on a Clint Hurdle single and he scored on a groundout to give the Royals a 5-4 lead. Five outs from pushing the defending champions to an elimination game the next day, manager Whitey Herzog pulled Splittorf in favor of reliever Doug Bird following a single by veteran Roy White. The switch was a bit of an odd move, as Bird had not pitched well in '78 and Munson was coming up next, a .316 lifetime hitter against Bird to that point. Needless to say, Munson made the Royals pay in a big way.
It was a tremendous drive simply to get over the left-center field fence 430 feet away. but Munson surpassed even that. The two-run clout came to rest in Monument Park, the first of only a couple in the 33-year history of the remodeled Yankee Stadium to go so far. In Marty Appel's tome on Yankees history, Pinstripe Empire, he noted that the drive landed (appropriately) by the Babe Ruth monument approximately 475 feet away. More importantly, the two-run homer gave the Yankees a 6-5 advantage.
Given a second chance, Gossage did not let the lead slip away, even retiring the scalding-hot Brett on a fly ball before ending it. The tables had been turned on the Royals, and facing elimination themselves the next day, they lost. The Yankees were AL champions, and they won a six-game Fall Classic against the Dodgers to win their second straight title. It was the last October of Munson's life.

Hows it going people, I was just wondering if anybody could direct me towards some good bodybuilding routines. Focusing on muscle size rather then strength. Everybody seems to suggest Rippetoes, which i know is a very good routine, but it is a powerlifting routine. I know the majority of guys here are following powerlifting routines but hopefully someone can help me out..
Thanks in advance people...
I wouldn't worry about bodybuilding routines until you have a very very strong foundation of strength. I a shooting for around 405 squat and deadlift before I switch over to a more mass oriented routine (I'm researching DC program - DoggCrapp - that seems to be very good but again you need to have a SOLID SOLID foundation of strength before you effectively implement the tactics they use).
I would suggest building a routine around OH press, Deadlift (or rack pull), Squat. And then building up some accessory work around those three lifts (back work, RC work, ab work, direct arm work, calf work). The accessory work is just to help, the three lifts you are always trying to PR in.

Any of the WannaBeBig routines or Baby Got Back. If you go to the routines section of this website (from the main page) you can find what you're looking for.
Check out my Journal!
Powerlifting Routine>Bodybuilding Routine most of the time. If you want, read Ron Harris' articles about being a bodybuilder. What really separates the bodybuilder from the powerlifter in the end is diet and bodyfat%.
That is exactly what I am talking about Zen!
You can always check out Arnold's Encyclopedia it's totally focused on size. Also there was a good bodybuilder that used to post on here called caseymajor, check out some of his threads. The one below lays out his basic workout.
This is the true joy in life, the being used for a purpose recognized by yourself as a mighty one; the being thoroughly worn out before you are thrown on the scrap heap; the being a force of Nature instead of a feverish selfish little clod of ailments and grievances complaining that the world will not devote itself to making you happy - George Bernard Shaw
are you new to working out?... if not might be worth looking at
also lol

well I can't talk for Ox, but I have definitely heard people say that powerlifting style training is the way to go for a good long while til you can really reap the benefits of bodybuilding style programs.
Ok so as you know we have very FEW bodybuilders on this website but there was one named DAONE a while back, he posted his routine. People will rip on it, but he was planning to compete and this is the routine he followed. Hope this adds some variety to the answers you're receiving..

other than no erector or core work, that routine actually looks pretty nice for a BB routine. but not for a beginners routine no doubt.

One big tihng 'bodybuilders' can learn from powerlifters is how to PLAN training beyond just a list of exercises. And I put bodybuilder in quotes b/c most people who want a bodybuilding routine are sub-185 lb teens who think 'bodybuilding' routine = 250 lb mass monster by spring break!
brad you've got to be kidding me if you think bodybuilders don't plan their routines with at least the same level of exactness that powerlifters do. You're so ridiculous you're as if a caricature.
I also noted at the end that I would not recommend that routine but use it as a tool for future reference...

Read this article and also follow the routine it has in it. This is a bodybuilding routine and its also the one im doing. I consider myself more of a bodybuilder, rather than a powerlifter.
age: 21
height: 6'3
weight: 175
short term goal: 200
Long term goal: Lean 225
Some people tend to think that in order to be considered a "bodybuilding routine" it needs to designed as a bodypart split w/ lots of isolation exercises. That's far from the truth. Heavy compound lifts are the staple lifts needed to build muscle. That, plus a good diet will give one the bodybuilding physique.
BTW, SS is not a powerlifting routine. It's a beginners routine that should be used by anyone that plans on seriously pursuing any type of sport, whether it be bodybuilding, powerlifting, oly lifting, football, strongman, etc... It's just the fastest way to build up a good foundation of strength and muscular bodyweight before getting into more specific training.

The Saints re-entered the first round of the NFL draft at No. 28, trading with the Patriots to acquire Alabama RB Mark Ingram.
The Saints relinquished their No. 56 selection in this year's draft and their first round selection in 2012 for the '09 Heisman Trophy winner. Ingram became the first running back off the board with the selection.
In PFW's 2011 Draft Preview book, Nawrocki says Ingram is "a well-built, motivated, productive workhorse who was slowed by injury as a junior. Does not have the flash, speed or suddenness of elite playmakers, but is a steady, solid bellcow with the type of hard-nosed, competitive mentality to handle 20 carries per game at the next level and consistently move the chains."
