I wasn't thrilled when my parents moved us away from Wisconsin when I was 12, but being in a smaller Minnesota city helped me get started in radio when I was a teenager.
"Ray" was the 7-midnight jock of the local top 40 station, and he'd let me sit in the corner and watch how things were done. While one song was playing he'd carefully rehearse what he'd say next. Ray left radio and became a bus driver.
"Steve" was the funny afternoon guy, although co-workers said he was
"torn between broadcasting and broads."
Various women were always in his studio. He was killed in a traffic accident at age 25.
"Dennis" was the "morning man," signing on at 5:30AM. In those days lots of radio stations went off-the-air at midnight , and there were no ensemble morning shows. Dennis played the hits, took requests, read the news and narrated commercials. When I offered to show up each morning to "do whatever," he took me up on it. So at age 14, I spent the summer getting up at 4:00AM for a lengthy bike ride across town to the radio station.
My first assignment: getting coffee at "Mr. Doughnut" across the street. Next was "clearing the wire," sorting the reams of paper that had accumulated on the A.P. news teletype overnight. If a commercial was missing I'd find it. If an obscure song was needed I'd search the record library.
One morning I was extra tired and missed the alarm. I threw on some clothes, jumped on my bike and raced across town, arriving five minutes late. Dennis greeted me with
"O'Neill…you'll never be a morning man."

NASHVILLE, TN (AP) - The Tennessee Department of Education has awarded three-year school improvement grants totaling more than $27 million in federal funds to 17 schools, mostly in Memphis and Chattanooga.
The schools are among the lowest-performing 5% of schools in the state, in terms of academic achievement.
Education Commissioner Kevin Huffman says a priority of the administration is to turn around those low-performing schools, and he believes the grant will give them the necessary resources, time and personnel to do that.
Whiteville Elementary in Hardeman County will receive $1,390,800 in School Improvement Grant funds while Sarah Moore Greene in Knox County has been awarded $1,504,045.
Five schools in the Achievement School District in Memphis—Corry Middle, Georgian Hills Achievement Elementary, Whitney Achievement Elementary, Hanley Elementary, and Klondike Preparatory Academy—will be awarded $7,503,603 in total over the course of the grant.
Douglass K-8, Riverview Middle School, Sherwood Middle School, and Treadwell Middle School within the Shelby County School district will receive $5,520,819 over three years.
These awards are in addition to an $11,309,331 grant given to Hamilton County last fall to serve its six lowest-performing schools (Chattanooga Girls Leadership Academy, Brainerd High School, Dalewood Middle School, Orchard Knob Elementary School, Orchard Knob Middle School, and Woodmore Middle School).
Officials say the grant will also give school principals a chance to work together in the state's Turnaround Principal Cohort, which allows them to facilitate discussions and share ideas and practices on a peer-to-peer level.

Fiskars and Duck Tape are teaming up to make the world smarter and more colorful together.
Add beautiful mood lighting at outdoor gatherings. Why not craft up a set to use this summer.
I made one example of each project and added it to the kit. I figure the children will get the gist of what they need to do - and if they don't, they are free to use the supplies in their own way!
Tissue Paper Flower box
Cut shapes using the scallop circle die in the Fuse, cutting multiple layers at a time (I cut mine in batches of 30).
Use the eyelet setter to punch a small hole through the center of the layers of tissue paper. To finish the flower, insert a brad through the center of multiple layers of tissue paper. Tie craft wire around the brad and open the ends to secure.
Turn the flower over, and ruffle up each layer of tissue paper individually to create a full, dimensional flower.
Place the flower in the kit box along with all the supplies needed to complete the project.
Mixed Media Banner
Use the square die to cut canvas, fabric and other leftover textiles you have laying around in your stash.
Trim some of the fabric squares with a rotary cutter for added interest.
Cut extra notions such as ric rac, ribbon, fabric tape, lace, etc. and add to the kit. Cut flower shapes using the flower mini die. Add some mini clothespins so that the banners can be pegged to a length of baker's twine to display.
Bird Sun Catchers
Use the Bird die to cut shapes from acrylic sheets.
Cut small squares of tissue paper using the Amplify 8" mixed media shears.
Add a jar of glue and foam brush to the box. Children will adhere the tissue paper squares to the acrylic shapes. Once dry, punch a small hole at the top of the bird and tie with baker's twine.
They can be hung in a garland across the window to catch the light.

Dow Road Project Paved And Ready For Finishing Touches; Painted Lines
- Details
- Published on Wednesday, 22 May 2013 23:20
- Written by Super User
The Dow Road project is nearing completion. The project has increased the width of the road and added turn lanes at major intersections. State officials say the project should be ready for the Memorial Day weekend.
By WILLARD KILLOUGH III
Managing Editor
CAROLINA BEACH - A $1.6 million dollar project to widen Dow Road on Pleasure Island is nearly complete. The project has widened the state highway and added turn lanes at high-traffic intersections including Cape Fear Blvd, Harper Avenue and Ocean Blvd. Dow Road runs north and south along the west side of the Island from Kure Beach to Carolina Beach.
Temporary lines have been painted in preparation for more permanent lines to be installed.
The project is also designed to make drainage improvements. Road construction and traffic markings were planned to be complete before the summer season on May 1, 2013. Delays extended the project but last week officials with the North Carolina Department of Transportation said the project should be completed by Memorial Day weekend.
Work will likely continue
through October 2013 to finalize the project by establishing permanent vegetation.
The wider road will accommodate the addition of the turn lanes and improve the shoulder conditions along the sandy sides of the road from Carolina Beach to Kure Beach.

A Chesterfield man accused of murdering a Virginia State Police Trooper appeared before a Dinwiddie judge Friday, telling the court his fate seemed to be sealed.
"I don't understand these charges," said 28-year-old Russell E. Brown. "I only killed one person so why do I have two murder charges?"
Prosecutor Lisa Caruso said Brown did not understand why he faces a capital murder charge and a capital attempted murder charge. Brown is accused of killing Master Trooper Junius A. Walker and engaging in a shoot-out with responding officers. Both counts carry the possibility of the death penalty or life in prison.
In a black and white prison jumpsuit, Brown appeared to be unfazed by the gravity of the charges and told Judge Valentine Southall he wanted to represent himself.
"Y'all are going to execute me anyway," Brown told the judge. "Why would I need an attorney?"
Under capital murder cases defendants in Virginia are required to have a lawyer. Brown could possibly be represented by two court-appointed lawyers by the time the case heads to trial. Dinwiddie attorney Joseph Teete was appointed to preliminarily represent Brown.
Brown will next appear in Dinwiddie General District Court March 18 at 11:00 a.m. The appearance will cover Brown's status of obtaining a lawyer and set a date for a preliminary hearing.
After Brown was taken out of the courtroom, Caruso told reporters she personally knew Master Trooper Walker, a veteran of the Virginia State Police who was shot and killed Thursday on I-85.
"I remember we would look at pictures of my daughter in my office and I would look at his granddaughter in his office," Caruso said. "He was a kind and compassionate man, and this is… a difficult time for all of us."
Brown is currently held without bond at Meherrin River Regional Jail in Brunswick County.

At Saturday's dedication festivities for Colorado National Golf Club -- the new home for CU's golf teams -- parked on the side of the putting green was a range-ball picking vehicle colored red and white, with a Nebraska football helmet on the roof and an "N" emblazoned on the front. Keep in mind that range-ball pickers are often the target of people hitting balls on the practice range, and what better target for a CU fan than a symbol of the NU football team, long a dreaded nemesis of the Buffs. And guess whose idea it was to decorate this bull's-eye of sorts with Husker symbols? None other than CU football coach Dan Hawkins, who attended Saturday's function.Even NU has place at new CU golf course : Top Stories : Boulder Daily Camera - Dan Hawkins, what a card. I'm wondering if he darned near had a stroke coming up with this one.

Many Lawmakers Personally Invested in JPMorgan Chase
May 17, 2012
Republicans and Democrats rushed this week to argue that stronger government regulation would or wouldn't have forestalled JPMorgan Chase's multibillion dollar losses. But they didn't mention whether they owned shares in the bank themselves. At least 38 of them do.
Dems Take Heat from All Sides As They Strive to Maintain Status Quo on Abortion
March 23, 2010
One of the lawmakers President Barack Obama's executive order won over was Rep. Bart Stupak (D-Mich.), who led a bipartisan fight in November to include stricter anti-abortion language in the House's version of the health reform legislation. By the Center for Responsive Politics' tally, Stupak is the only Democratic incumbent in the House to receive any money from special interest groups that oppose abortion so far this election cycle -- with a $500 contribution coming from the Right to Life of Michigan PAC.

Creating a new business is tough, especially when failure rate is so high. North Dakotas first Startup Weekend brought entrepreneur's together in Fargo to take a chance to start the next big business.
Sometimes it's the most creative ideas that will one day help our community like Todd Richardson's business to start a prescription sock business that would help put them in the hands of those who need them.
"It would send you new socks, you can wear them, get that new fluffy sock feeling, and you'd send them back, we're gonna wash them and donate them to salvation army or some of the local charity's."
But many small businesses aren't able to stay on their feet. Only a fracture make more than a few years. So an event called Startup Weekend helps them succeed by taking their ideas, and flipping them into reality.
"It's built around totally networking with people you've never met, and maybe even creating a new business that might make it." says Maribeth Joraanstad who helped organize the event. But it wasn't all about the ideas.
"They get to meet those people that they might call on later, and be like hey I'm actually starting this business, and I need some legal help because I don't know what I'm doing. And so those connections I think are really important for the future of their business." Maribeth says.
Connections they may need to help make their start-up become one of the 27 million small businesses in the U.S.
"It's totally the future of our community as well, not only a fun event where you meet a bunch of people, but it could be a future for our town." Maribeth exclaims.

Do you feel like the economy is headed in the right direction? A local economics professor says there are some good signs out there, like the stock market at record highs, auto sales doing well, and improvements in the housing market. But it's not time to celebrate yet. Richard Measell at Saint Mary's College said people are still being cautious when it comes to spending. And that's because of several factors.
First one, the Payroll tax cut has been gone for a couple months now. Meaning people have seen a few paychecks with a 2 percent increase in their taxes. Brittany Moffat said, "Yeah, you can definitely see that. The higher my check, the more they take."
And with less money people are cutting back. "I just go to work and take the kids to school. We don't really do anything right now. One vacation a year that's about it," said Moffat. "We bargain shop, clearance racks when the kids need anything. We don't eat out anymore we just kinda stay close to home," said Jennifer Bloss.
But the loss of the payroll tax cut isn't the only thing changing spending habits. There's even more noticeable changes such as high food prices and high gas prices. "We just can't afford gas, gas prices are so high," said Bloss.
Measell said those high food and gas prices, "That sort of puts a chill on the consumer and they're not gonna be spending as much." And that's not good for the economy. ""It looks like we're having slow economic expansion at this time," said Measell.
Local consumers aren't optimistic it's going to get better anytime soon. "I hope so but I only think it's gonna get worse," said Moffat.
But Professor Measell said it may get better as the year goes on and people adjust to having less money. He said the real test will come later this year. "As the weather gets better and they have more options what will they do? Will they cut back or decide to increase? Here's what we should watch in the days ahead, will people go out and travel? And how will their spending compare to summer's past?

Ten Golden Rules for Winning Scholarships
These tips will help you win scholarships to pay for college:
- Start Early – Start looking Junior Year. Many scholarships have early application deadlines.
- Speak with your high school guidance counselor or scholarship advisor. These people may be able to lead you to local, regional or national scholarships that you won't easily find elsewhere.
- If you are a volunteer or active in a community, school or religious group, ask the advisor, sponsor or benefactor about scholarships. These people may be able to suggest and connect you with scholarship opportunities.
- Check out online sources. There are many scholarship websites as well as Internet sites of scholarship sponsors that profile scholarship opportunities. Many high schools post scholarship opportunities in the Guidance Office or on the Guidance Department web site. Since many scholarships are local, state and regional, it's a good idea to seek out scholarship web sites and listings for other schools in your area.
- Read Application Requirements - Make sure you are eligible. Otherwise you are probably wasting you time.
- Follow Instructions Explicitly – Most scholarships are very competitive and errors can eliminate you from consideration.
- Tailor your application essay to the sponsoring organziation - Resist sending your standard essay with a simple name change.
- Proofread your Application Carefully - Errors can result in a quick denial.
- Be Active - Student leaders and those active in athletics, clubs and community service are more likely to win college scholarship.
- Maintain your GPA - Keep your grades up. A minimum GPA is required for many scholarships. Strong academic performance will make you eligible for more scholarship opportunities.

Women's hoops falls to Florida A&M in home opener, 78-59
Related Links
Three players in double figures wasn't enough for the JU women's basketball team as they suffered a 78-59 loss to Florida A&M in the home opener at Swisher Gymnasium on Monday night.
Antonia Bennett had 27 points, 14 rebounds and four blocks to lead the Lady Rattlers (1-0) to their first win, while Qiana Donald chipped in with 13 points and 13 rebounds. Florida A&M made its living in the paint, scoring 48 points and pulling down 57 rebounds.
"We didn't do enough to get the win," JU head coach Jill Dunn said. "I thought we played well in spurts, but couldn't do what we needed in the long run. We need to work on being more consistent as we go through the early part of the schedule."
Sophomore Abril Peeples totaled a career-best 22 points and four assists for the Dolphins (0-2), who dropped their first home opener in nine seasons. JU's last lost in an opener was to Navy in 2001.
The Dolphins recorded a 34.2 field goal percentage (26-76), but only made three free throws in nine attempts. The Lady Rattlers went 42.9 percent from the floor and were held to 1 for 15 from beyond the arc.
Less than two minutes in the second half, junior Tracie Sneed broke the sixth tie of the contest with a three-pointer to give the Dolphins a 39-36 advantage. The Lady Rattlers broke free with a 17-4 run, capped on a Kimberly Sparkman three-pointer (13:21). Senior Crystal Bell cut the deficit six, 53-47, on a coast-to-coast layup with 10:04 left. The Dolphins made it a 59-51 deficit on a sophomore Jane'l Osborne layup (8:47), but Florida A&M ended the game on an 18-9 stretch to secure the win.
Sneed finished with 12 points on 5 of 11 attempts and two perfect attempts from beyond the arc. Bell added 10 points, nine rebounds and three assists in the loss.
In the first half, Bell gave the Dolphins a 21-17 advantage on a jumper at 8:47. Osborne pushed the lead to five twice on a free throw and layup. The Lady Rattlers regained the lead, 27-26, at 4:16 on a Carrington Caise layup. Peeples hit consecutive layups to help JU take back the lead before two Sparkman free throws cut the Florida A&M deficit to 33-32 at half time.
The Dolphins continue the home stand on Saturday against Hampton at Swisher Gymnasium. Tipoff is set for 1 p.m.

vacation rental description
Stay in a "lighthouse" on your next vacation -- our light-filled, utterly unique, popular Atlantic View House! You'll fall in love with its sunlight-soaked rooms, private pool, spiral staircase, and just-for-fun "crow's nest" with unbelievable views!
The emphasis is on rising above the everyday (and getting a great view of the Atlantic Ocean from those two upper stories!) in our one-of-a-kind house, which sleeps 12 in 4 bedrooms and offers two separate living areas and 3 rollaway beds. Whether you're sharing with another family or simply want the privacy afforded by two fully equipped living areas provides, you'll appreciate this feature.
The first floor of our house is devoted to a huge living room (and sofa sleeper) and a smaller first bedroom with 2 single beds. Whether you want to watch TV from the comfort of our deep, soft couches, play a rousing game of Pictionary at the table for 4, or dip into a romance novel from our bookshelves, this sunlight-flooded room has breathing space for the whole family.
Wind your way up the spiral staircase (enjoying ocean views every step of the way!) and you arrive at the second floor, with a large family room offering everything from TV and DVD player to a fridge and microwave for quick refreshments during those movie marathons! Just beyond the family room is a spacious kitchen and dining area with a table for 6 below a wall-mounted LCD TV. (A laundry room with full-sized washer and dryer is also convenient.) Want a little entertainment as you whip up a tasty batch of treats? You can easily watch the TV from our state-of-the-art kitchen, which contains an island bar with 3 padded stools, smoothtop range, full-sized fridge, dishwasher, plenty of counter and cupboard space, and all the cookware, gadgets, and dishes you need to feed a crowd!
The second storey master bedroom features a queen bed, private TV and DVD player, workspace for the computer or late-night postcard writing, and en-suite bathroom with shower. The third is snug and cozy with a queen bed, tv set and private bathroom,
But that's not all. Keep climbing those spiral stairs and you'll reach the crow's nest, the third storey of Atlantic View! Here, panoramic views of the ocean, beach, and neighborhood reward you for your climb. It's a lookout just for you, and it may become your favorite indoor spot for star-gazing. It also features the 4th bedroom with a single bed. Plus, the house has 3 roll-away beds to put anywhere you want.
We say "indoor" because the interior of our fantastic house is equaled by the exterior! A long, winding deck wraps the second storey in breathtaking views, with a casual table and chairs for al fresco dining, open-air games of Hearts, and front-row seating for the sunset. An outdoor staircase wreathed in lush tropical vines leads you down into the backyard, where the figure-eight shaped pool awaits you in our landscaped garden! Dine poolside every morning, then take a refreshing dip before beginning your fun-filled day at the beach, in historic St. Augustine, or at one of the many nearby attractions, from Disney World to the Kennedy Space Center!
Located on a quiet street with fabulous ocean views, Atlantic View is beautifully landscaped and offers a large driveway with a single-car garage, so you need never worry about parking (and the family car can stay out of the summer sun!). A public walkway just minutes away leads to the soft sands of our beach, which is wide and inviting, with sparkling waves, shells and shark's teeth, and plenty of space for lounging or playing. Want to get away from it all in a custom-designed home where the beach is just outside every beautiful window? Welcome to Atlantic View.

Amazing Beach!!
The property was AMAZING! I am very particular when it comes to beaches because I like clear and calm water. This was one of the most amazing beaches I have seen and Magen's Bay is one of the nicest beaches in St. Thomas. The owner Suzanne was so nice and helpful. I was planning a wedding as well as a vacation and she answered my questions quickly and thoroughly. She couldn't have made it any easier. Bob was the house manager who would help in any way possible. Running errands and taking guests anywhere they wanted to go. He truly is the heart of the house. We also had Monica and Andrine cook a BBQ for our guests and it was one of the best meals we ate all week. We had a large group of people so we used Edmond for our taxi service. He would come as soon as we called and come back and pick us up whenever we were ready. All of the people that work at the Sand Dollar were the nicest people and you could tell that they just wanted to make sure your stay was enjoyable. I hope one day I will return!
The view from the infinity pool alone is worth it to stay here. Loved grilling on the pool deck, dozing on the private balconies, and relaxing in the lofty great room. The villa was spotless, in a secure, quiet neighborhood, and had everything we needed. Was very hard to leave here every morning to attend the conference that brought us to the Virgin Islands in the first place. We had been looking forward to our stay here for months, and it still managed to exceed our expectations in every way. Can't recommend this villa enough!

Voldemort Named Among Worst Literary Villains by PenguinBooks
Dark Lord Voldemort has made the top ten list of 'scariest villains in children's literature' according to a report in the Scotsman. The paper details the results of a new list from the Penguin Group, which polled 600 readers, asking them to rank the literary characters they most feared. Coming in at number six, He-Who-Must-Not-Be-Named from the Harry Potter books by author J. K. Rowling stands along side such other great literary villains as The White Witch from C.S. Lewis' The Chronicles of Narnia, Captain Hook from J.M. Barrie's Peter Pan, and The Wolf from Red Riding Hood by Brothers Grimm. The article also quotes Booktrust children's website editor Rebecca Wilkie as saying:
"A good villain is larger than life and does things we would never dare, but usually gets their comeuppance in the end. Who can forget Harry Potter triumphing over Lord Voldemort and Roald Dahl's witches being turned into mice?She goes on to note that, "For all of us, there is something comforting in the ultimate triumph of good over evil." The full list of the Top Ten Literary Villains is as follows:
- White Witch (The Chronicles of Narnia by CS Lewis – 1950)
- Captain Hook (Peter Pan by JM Barrie – 1904)
- The Grand High Witch (The Witches by Roald Dahl – 1983)
- Wicked Stepmother (Snow White by Brothers Grimm – 1810)
- Cruella De Vil (The Hundred and One Dalmatians by Dodie Smith – 1956)
- Voldemort (Harry Potter books by JK Rowling – 1997)
- The Child Catcher (Chitty Chitty Bang Bang by Ian Fleming – from the 1968 film. Not the original book)
- Miss Trunchbull (Matilda by Roald Dahl – 1988)
- The Wolf (Red Riding Hood by Brothers Grimm – 1810)
- Long John Silver (Treasure Island by Robert Louis Stevenson – 1883)

Women in the Law
These Lawyer Families Are New Twist on Opt-Out Professionals
Posted Oct 1, 2009 11:02 AM CDT
By Debra Cassens Weiss
A New York Times story suggested in 2003 that there is an opt-out revolution in the making. The newspaper profiled a group of high-achieving Princeton women who decided to leave their jobs, shining a spotlight on professional women who stay at home to raise their children.
But the notion of an opt-out revolution isn't supported by recent Census figures and women lawyers interviewed by the American Lawyer who go to work while their husbands stay home with the kids. The arrangement shows that a supportive spouse can be as important as supportive law firms for women lawyers, according to the magazine.
"For all the talk about flextime, part-time, and other family-friendly policies, the reality is that big-law practice is an unforgiving profession, and a stay-at-home spouse provides some much-needed cushioning," the American Lawyer says.
The story gets some support from newly released Census figures examining 2007 data. The Census report shows that stay-at-home mothers tend to be younger, less educated, and from lower-earning families, the Washington Post reports. Sociologists told the publication that women who stay at home are more likely to have few job opportunities and less access to the salaries that justify the child care cost.
The American Lawyer story profiles several women lawyers who work at large law firms while relying on stay-at-home spouses for child care.
They include Barbara Becker, a partner at Gibson, Dunn & Crutcher in New York; Sandra Rodriguez, a partner at Vinson & Elkins in Austin, Texas; Marissa Wesely, a partner at Simpson Thacher & Bartlett; and Laura Palma, an executive committee member at Simpson Thacher in New York.
The arrangement is unusual, according to the Census Bureau. It found 165,000 fathers stayed home in 2007, compared to 5.6 million mothers.
Becker told the publication her husband has been "Mr. Mom" for seven years. "He's great at it, and it allows me to do my job." Still, she says she's reluctant to hold herself out as a model. "Most people don't have the luxury of a spouse who can stay home," she says.

The instructor will use fun, interactive techniques and demonstrate how to engage participants. However, this training is not intended to teach participants how to be a group facilitator.
The foundational curriculum used in this training is Tackling the Tough Skills™: A Curriculum Building Skills for Workand Life (Revised Edition).

Hooked on the euphoria of learning from other people and their wisdom, Rosilee continued her own schooling in inner-city hospitals, day-care centers, housing projects and social service agencies, as well as in an Eskimo village above the Arctic Circle. Along the way, she picked up degrees in nursing, psychology, sociology, and social work, ending with a master's in social work and becoming a licensed clinical social worker.
Serving as urban youth and family specialist for University of Missouri Extension from 1992 to 2010, Rosilee was primarily involved in workforce development, offender re-entry programs, and offering training and educational insights into her curriculum.

In addition, Rosilee has served on a variety of boards dedicated to helping adults and children realize their potential. Retiring effective May 1, 2010, Rosilee continues her work with University of Missouri Extension as a workforce development consultant and trainer of the Tackling the Tough Skills™ curriculum.

"I can hardly wait to get back to work to start putting these ideas into action."
"The curriculum is interactive, educational, and fun. I work primarily with Native Americans, and I know I will be able to interconnect this curriculum to meet the needs of my clients. Great class! I will recommend it to others.""This is the best material that I have come across in years. It gets back to the basics for those folks that missed out on these skills."

"I liked everything!! Very interactive and hands on. Rosilee had many interesting experiences that drove the points home. I learned ways to better assist my students in learning and helping themselves, as well as things about myself that I'll be implementing in my personal and professional life."
"I learned so much!! Wow! This will help me not to be so judgmental. It gives me a new place to start with my 'customers.'"
"I scarcely know where to begin. This curriculum is definitely the missing link. I can't wait to implement this."
"I learned techniques and different approaches that I can use when working with difficult groups."
"I learned different lessons to use in order to prepare students for the future, how to reach my 'hard-to-reach' kids, and how to offer help and resources to students and parents."
"This was excellent training--the best I have ever attended! (And I have been around a long time!)"
"Very excited to use this material!! (personally and professionally)"
"I plan to include information with students to increase critical thinking skills. Learning materials to pass a test can be easily taught. Learning materials to live by is a challenge."
"I learned so much more about everything that I thought I already knew. The concepts put a different spin on what I do in the classroom with clients."

Please use the buttons below to see more information on Newport Gwent Dragons and matches between Wasps and Newport over the years.
Rhys Jones gave the home side the lead with a third-minute penalty from 30 metres, after Wasps lost a turnover in midfield.
Wasps levelled immediately, after a Dragons knock-on, from Joe Carlisle's restart, just inside their 22. A powerful Wasps scrum sent the home pack backwards, yielding a penalty, and Carlisle made no mistake with the kick at goal.
Wasps came close to the first try, when Tommy Bell joined the line at speed. He fed Tom Howe out on the right wing, but the defence caught him, a few metres from the line, and Wasps were penalised at the breakdown.
The Wasps forwards were already establishing the upper hands at the scrums, but the best attacking opportunity came when Jonah Holmes gathered a misdirected crossfield, in acres of space, just inside his own 22. He made a few metres downfield, before feeding Tommy Bell, who had come outside him, but the defence did well to force him into touch.
After 22 minutes, a second Rhys Jones penalty, from 35 metres, put the home side back in front.
Six minutes, another impressive Wasps scrum won them a penalty, inside the Dragons 22. They opted to go for the corner, and were rewarded when Matt Everard went over for a try, following a well-controlled catch and drive. Carlisle's conversion was off target.
The lead lasted less than two minutes, as the Wasps defence failed to gather a high kick, on their 10-metre line. First they left it to bounce, then they knocked on. Ashley Smith pounced on the loose ball, and powered his way into the 22. He fed lock Cory Hill, who sent winger Matthew Pewtner in, in the right-hand corner. Rhys Jones added the extra points, with a superb touchline conversion.
A Wasps handling error, in the Dragons 22, then gave Pewtner the chance to break away down the right. He made 30 metres, before throwing a long inside pass that must have gone at least five metres forwards, but was not called by the officials. Dragons kept up the pressure through a series of phases and it took some excellent defence to keep them out, until they knocked on, a metre from the line. Wasps won a penalty from the scrum, and the whistle went for half-time, with the home side 13-8 ahead.
The opening minutes of the second half were a scrappy affair, with little to stir the crowd, until a long-range Rhys Jones penalty fell just short, in the 48th minute.
Three minutes later, Jones split the Wasps defence, and seemed certain to score, only for Tommy Bell to deny him, with a last-ditch ankle tap.
Wasps finally found an attacking edge, when Jonah Holmes broke away down the left, and combined well with Sam Jones. The move was stopped near the left corner, but play was worked back across to the right, but Esteban Lozada knocked on.
Wasps made a series of replacements, with Andy Goode, Joe Simpson and Kearnan Myall all joining the action, in place of Tommy Bell, Jack Moates and James Cannon. Within seconds of their entrance, tempers frayed and there was a free-for-all, involving most of the forwards. After lengthy consultation, the referee warned both captains.
With the game inside the final quarter, Wasps won a penalty, which they kicked to the corner. When they won another penalty, following the lineout, they opted for a scrum, but were penalised for collapsing. A minute later, another flare-up saw the referee lose his patience, and Kearnan Myall was shown a yellow card, with 15 minutes left to play.
Wasps then changed both their props, with Simon McIntyre and Will Taylor coming on. Ten minutes from time, Andy Goode missed a 42-metre penalty.
Three minutes later, Dragons made the game safe, with their third try. From a lineout, inside their half, the forwards drove upfield, taking play well into the Wasps half. When they released the ball, a huge pass out to the left put the defence in two minds, and winger Ashton Hewitt streaked away for a decisive score. The conversion put the home side 20-8 in front.
In the closing minutes, Wasps finally produced some glimpses of attacking intention, with Ed Jackson producing some impressive bursts. But it was too little, too late and the home side came close to a bonus point, following a superb attack from deep in their own territory.
Wasps return to Aviva Premiership action next Sunday, the 24th, when Bath are the visitors to Adams Park.

PEORIA, Ill. -- Residents will soon see a small hike in the cost for postal stamps. Beginning January 27, the cost will jump one cent to 46 cents.
U.S. Postal Service spokesman Michael Clark says the rate hike is small but adds every little bit of extra revenue helps with efforts to enhance service.
"It's actually part of the Postal Enhancement Act of 2006 where we are bound by that federal law that we can only increase stamps by the rate of inflation based on the consumer price index for urban consumers," he said.
The postal service is also releasing a new stamp as part of the 150th anniversary of the Emancipation Proclamation.

Mine still lives! I plan to actually plug a Chromecast into it (why would I do this you ask? Because it's powering a pair of floorstanding speakers along with sending video to the TV).
crazace says:
I wish I could have gotten one. I read about this when I was deployed, then I read about its demise a short time later.
Ironcladz says:
This is a great idea. I have outdoor speakers that are connected to my AVR inside the house powered using Zone2. Got the Q to play outdoor music-but when using HDMI inputs, it didn't allow that source to played outside (it was Winter when I got the Q). I could actually re-route the outdoor speakers into the Q and keep in it in the garage and have my Tablet/phone actually use Chromecast as a bypass to play music through the Q's amplifier.
Thank you ottscay - Genius!

It's sad to see a nexus device put out to pasture, especially in this sort of fashion. Google really did this device wrong, and I can't understand why. I'd love to buy one still, but I don't even see much development for it. The community is always great for picking up the OEM's slack, but without that I really don't see much reason to own one. Google really could have left compatibility alone, but they intentionally removed it....just sad.
So. Much. This. A Nexus device didn't deserve this treatment. Google could have handled it better. If it was priced right, from the get-go, then it would have had so much more potential.

I realize there's overwhelming evidence (Chromecast, no longer on Google Play..etc.) that this device will never see the light of day again, but has there ever been an "official" Google announcement to confirm it. I know, wishful thinking it may still have a glimmer of life left.

The Deer Park softball team ran its modest winning streak to three with a doubleheader sweep of Clarkston on Friday.
The Lady Stags defeated the Bantams 11-1, 9-2 to run their Great Northern League record to 3-3.
Deer Park pitcher Kylie Sweeney did most of the damage in the first game with her right arm and bat. The sophomore limited the Bantams to only one hit, a solo home run by catcher Morgan Alivert in the second inning.
Deer Park Middle School seventh grader Brent Hodgson placed first in the male middle school division at the recent Washington National Archery in the Schools' state championship in Ellensburg.
The 24-member DPMS archery squad took third while eighth grader Natasha Root placed ninth in the female middle school division.
On March 22, DPMS sent a team of 24 sixth, seventh and eighth grade students to compete. Students qualified through a "mini tournament" held in the health and fitness classes and only the top 12 boys and girls made the team.
The Riverside soccer team, unleashing a dominating attack, handled the Deer Park Stags 4-0 on Monday in the season opener for both schools.
The Rams, who out shot the Stags 11-6, jumped out to an early lead on a penalty kick by Oliver Robstad at the 24-minute mark. They increased the lead to 2-0 before halftime on a goal Robyn.
The Rams added goals by Brandon Suhr and Tillman Spindeidrier in the second half while their defense, anchored by goalkeeper Wyatt Hagehann kept the Stag attack bottled up in their own end.
It understandable if the Chelan Mountain Goats never but heads again this season with the Riverside Rams.
The Mountain Goats, which saw their football state championship aspirations disappear with an opening round playoff loss to the Rams in November, saw the same fate befall their boys basketball team on Saturday.
The Rams, who never trailed in the loser-out bi-district playoff game, eliminated the Goats 39-28. Riverside (20-5) will head to regional playoff action next weekend.
The Deer Park Stags got a rebound basket by Travis Pierce and three free throws to hold off the West Valley Eagles 52-45 on Friday.
The Eagles had cut the Stags' lead to 47-45 on a three-point play by Brennen Folkins with 1:19 to play. Pierce answered with a put-back basket and Deer Park iced the game with free throws by Canyon Nielson, Avery Miller and Nathan Guske.
The win improved the Stags' Great Northern League record to 2-5 and 6-9 overall. West Valley fell to 3-3, 10-4.
The Colville wrestling team, which has spent the past two years chasing the Deer Park Stags, finally caught its Great Northern League rival on Wednesday.
The Indians, the top ranked Class 2A team in the state, got a first period pin from 113-pound Alex Linn to defeat the Stags 38-32.
It was a match where neither team could build any sizeable lead.
The Indians' biggest lead of 20-14 came after Ryley Smith defeated Jacob Boswell in the 182-pound match. The Stags' biggest lead of 26-20 came when 195-pound Trevor Eicher, making his season debut, needed only 37 seconds to pin Spencer Frank.
The Deer Park Stags built an early 16-0 lead on their way to a 44-30 Great Northern League wrestling win over Cheney on Wednesday.
Tysen Jorgensen got the ball rolling with first period pin over Sam Hobbs in the 126-pound match. His victory was followed by a 13-3 win by Dean Lockwood over the Blackhawks' Cameron Wiseman and a first-period pin by Brandon Field over Francisco Martinez.
Cheney narrowed the margin to 28-18 before 220-pound Cody Devore scored a pin of Jacob Hill to give Deer Park an almost insurmountable lead.
The Deer Park Stags, helped by five Nate Guske free throws in the fourth quarter, slid past Chewelah 61-57 on Tuesday.
Deer Park head coach Chad Hand, who was not pleased with all aspects of his team's performance, said he would take the victory in the Stags' home opener.
The Stags (2-1) broke a 41-41 tie late in third quarter and held off numerous charges by the Cougars down the stretch. Two Guske free throws were followed by offensive rebound basket by Canyon Nielson to increase the Deer Park lead to 58-47 before Chewelah's Mckenzie Miller hit a 3-pointer to keep the Cougars close.
The Chewelah girls basketball team used a 13-0 run in the third quarter to surge past the Deer Park Lady Stags 47-20 on Tuesday.
Leading 18-15 at halftime, the Lady Cougars (1-2) used their strength underneath the basket to pull away from the Lady Stags (0-3), who were held to only one field goal in the third quarter, an offensive rebound by Siera English with 40 seconds left in the quarter.
The Deer Park wrestling team, bolstered by five forfeit wins, defeated Orting 46-33 on Friday in the first match of the year for both Class 2A powers.
The Stags, runners-up at last season's state championship, jumped out to a 22-0 lead thanks to a 9-1 win by defending state champion Joe Grable over Michael Moniz, another Mat Classic veteran, in the 152-pound match-up and a first period pin by 171-pound Jason Aebischer.
