Oberlies fires 16 strikeouts in Eagles' fourth win of season
Thu. March 14, 2013 at 10:55 p.m. | By Brittany Jackson
EAST FLAT ROCK — It took no time at all for Zack Oberlies to establish the kind of night he was going to have Thursday at East Henderson, and visiting Madison fell victim to the left-hander's arm.
The senior ace pitched a 16-strikeout one-hitter in six innings to lead the Eagles to the 9-2 win over the Patriots (0-5) just in time for conference play to start up. Oberlies struck out 17 just one week prior in the Eagles' 4-3 win over Hendersonville.
"In his past 13 innings Zack has thrown 33 strikeouts. He's done a great job as a leader for this team and the boys are playing well behind him," said East head coach Josh Miller. "He's a very composed pitcher."
He faced just 22 batters for Thursday's 16 strikeouts and got himself out of a lull in the fourth inning. After giving up his only two walks of the night Oberlies struck out the final two batters.
Oberlies almost pitched a no-hitter until losing steam in the top of the seventh when Madison's James Gosnell reached first on a grounder to right field.
Oberlies also finished 1-for-1 with three walks and three runs scored from the plate. Leadoff hitter Josh Conard was 2-for-4 with a double and a run and Austin Cooke was 2-for-3 with a double and three RBIs. Wesley Garrett was 1-for-4 with two RBIs.
Up to a quick 3-0 start to close the first inning, the Eagles scored one more in the second and after a quiet third inning bumped up the score to 7-1 in the bottom of the fourth.
Austin Fisher scored Seth Owen on a grounder to second base and Cooke followed with a two-run double that flew out to the centerfield fence.
"We're really starting to gel as a team and the bats are starting to come alive," Miller said.
The Eagles (4-2) host Pisgah on Tuesday in their WNC Athletic Conference opener.

I have been fortunate enough to follow Glenn's music in its many styles and stages. One thing that is always true abou Glenn is his remarkable rane as a singer and his feel for the vibe of the music. This album is a true example of that range and vibe. The energy and flow of the album along with the song selection (and performance)makes it my pick for album of the year. No matter if the boy can sing the blues or sing Stevie Wonder remakes no singer takes you into the void the way Glenn does. Despite having 38 albums that feature Glenn's vocals, this along with Feel always top my play list.
Glenn Hughes Biography - Glenn Hughes Discography - All Heavy Metal Bands
The Definitive Album (Live Or Otherwise) from the Former Deep Purple and Hughes/Thrall Band Guitarist and Songwriter. Much of the Material Here Comes from the Purple Canon as Well as Solo Material. These Shows Made an Indelible Mark on his Fans and Are Some of the Most Energetic Live Recordings Ever.

This is a sort of best-of live featuring Deep Purple tracks, solo stuff, and one song from Hughes/Thrall. Backed by a hard rock band of Northern European session men, here Hughes is in fine form, playing songs you know with conviction. He doesn't quite out-yowl Ian Gillan and the Robert Plant wannabe photo on the back cover is a bit much, but this is GREAT live rock and roll.
If you are a Glenn Hughes or a Deep Purple fan of the Coverdale/Hughes era you should get this CD. Although I thought Deep Purple took a step back when Ian Gillian and Roger Glover left Deep Purple and David Coverdale and Glenn Hughes joined the band they made some great songs. This CD in my opinion captures Glenn Hughes at his best singing some of the best Deep Purple and his own songs live in concert. His voice is in top notch form and the sound is great for a live recording. If the rock and roll Gelnn Hughes is what you like here it is in all it's glory. At times I can give or take some of his solo stuff but this is kick [...] all the way. Listen to it loud and enjoy.
From the opening track I was hooked! Unbelievable. This CD has taken up residence in my car player.Much to my kids' disgust! The ex purple tracks "Burn", "Stormbringer", "Lady Double Dealer", "Gettin' Tighter" make me wonder WHO was the voice of DP. But when you mix in the likes of "Into the Void" and "Coast to Coast". You have one unbelievable album. Recorded over two nights in 1994, makes you wonder if their are any more tracks in the archive somewhere?
(Just a whisper: Soulfully Live in the City of Angels is better!)
As a fan of Deep Purple in its many incarnations, I find Glenn Hughes to be one of Purple's most interesting voices. This album allows Glenn to rock and not worry about playing bass. Backed with two guitars, these songs really rock. (Just thing what Purple might have sounded like with two guitars.) This is a great live album that needs to be cranked up.

Joseph "Joe" Young J.D. '64 died peacefully at his home in Anchorage, Alaska, on April 11, 2014, from complications of a stroke suffered in Oct. 2009. Joe was born on Nov. 3, 1929, in Ione, Wash., to Harold and Barbara Young. He spent his early years in Montana. During the Great Depression, economic hardship forced his parents to place him and his younger sister in St. Thomas Orphans Home in Great Falls, Mont. He lived in the orphans home for six years. In 1944, when he was 14, he traveled in steerage by steamship to Anchorage where his mother lived. On the way up, he played poker to earn spending money. As a result of the hardship of his early years, he had a strong commitment to social justice and equality. While attending Anchorage High School, he became an accomplished ski racer. Joe's love of skiing and ski racing continued throughout his life. After graduating from Anchorage High School in 1947, he went to Aspen, Colo., and skied for the Aspen Ski Team. The next winter, he went to Sun Valley, Idaho. During the 1950s, he spent the winters in Sun Valley working as a ski instructor and ski patrolman and skiing for the Sun Valley Ski Team. He skied in the National Alpine Championships in 1951, 1954 and 1955. During the summers, he worked as a lineman in Anchorage. Joe was an excellent poker player and supplemented his income during those years by gambling. He was drafted in 1951, but not even the Army could get in the way of his skiing career. He was stationed in Germany and raced throughout Europe as a member of the Army International Ski Team. In September 1954, he married Mary Louise (Pudj) Johnson in Anchorage. In the early '60s, he started Joe Young Ski School and taught hundreds of Anchorage baby boomers how to ski at Alyeska and Arctic Valley. At the age of 31, he decided to go to law school. About that decision, he said, "I woke up and had a wife and a couple of kids and all I knew how to do was slide down hills and climb poles." Although he did not have an undergraduate degree, he scored high enough on his law school admissions test to get a waiver. He moved his young family to California to attend the University of Santa Clara Law School, graduating in 1964. In the '60s and '70s, he practiced law in Anchorage with the firm of Atkinson, Conway, Young, Bell and Gagnon. In the '80s and '90s, he practiced with the firm of Young and Sanders. As a lawyer, he specialized in representing widows, orphans and people who had been terribly injured through corporate negligence. He waged successful courtroom battles against such corporate giants as Eli Lilly, Volkswagen and McDonnell Douglas. Joe was named as one of the 80 top trial attorneys in the country by Town and Country magazine and was included in "The Best Lawyers in America." He was also a member of the Inner Circle of Advocates, an exclusive, invitation-only national group of top trial lawyers. He was a recipient of the Alaska Bar Association Award for Professionalism. In the early '90s, he retired from the practice of law to devote more time to his first passion, skiing. He and Pudj spent most of the year at their home in Sun Valley. During his retirement years, he raced in a number of National Alpine Masters races. In the summer, he enjoyed hiking the mountains of Idaho with his daughters, grandchildren and dogs. Throughout his life, Joe enjoyed fishing, duck hunting and boating. He especially enjoyed spending time with his family at his cabin on Kachemak Bay. He was a very devoted father and grandfather. The highlight of his last year was the birth of his first great-grandchild. Although he faced many challenges after his stroke, he never complained. His high school yearbook described him as "handsome and good natured" and he remained that way all his life. He is survived by his wife of 59 years, Pudj, of Anchorage; daughters, Kristen Frampton of Anchorage and Kari Young of Sun Valley; son-in-law Chad Frampton of Anchorage; grandchildren, Caroline Huntley (Ehrich) and Erik Frampton of Anchorage and Annabel Webster of Sun Valley; and great-granddaughter, Audra Huntley of Anchorage. A brother, Noel Young, of New York City, also survives him. His sister, Judith Wise, and half-brothers, Michael Young and Jack Midyett, preceded him in death.

Jim was appointed to the United States Bankruptcy Court, Northern District of California, in 1988 and served until 2006. In this role, he served with passion to ensure that the litigants who came before him, whether institutional entities or individuals, experienced the fair administration of justice and understood the reasoning for his rulings. He particularly enjoyed and was generous in mentoring the law clerks who worked with him during his tenure on the bench. He often said that he learned as much from them as they had from him. In 1996, Jim married Marilyn Morgan, his colleague on the bench. He thrived on the robust collaboration with Marilyn to elevate the quality of the local practice and to make procedures more streamlined and accessible. During his career he belonged to numerous bar associations, such as The Inns of Court, which promotes civility, but also to the Rotary Club of San Jose, and he supported Habitat for Humanity and the San Jose Historical Society. An avid golfer with seven holes-in-one to his credit, Jim visited Pinehurst frequently before he and Marilyn retired to Pinehurst in 2009. Jim is survived by his wife, Marilyn Grube; and his daughter, Annelise, and her husband, Rhamy Kirdani.

Bank Holiday non-league round-up
8:16pm Monday 2nd January 2012 in Chorley FC
CHORLEY charged right back into the Evo-Stik League Premier Division promotion picture as they rocked play-off rivals Marine to start 2012 with a bang.
The Magpies travelled to College Road for their Mersey mission fully aware that a defeat could have dealt their hopes a major blow.
But Tom Ince (20) gave them an ideal start, although the prolific Neil Harvey levelled from the spot for Marine three minutes before the break.
Steve Foster restored Chorley's advantage from the penalty spot on 53 minutes only for Aaron Rey to fire Marine level.
But two goals in a minute won the match for Garry Flitcroft's men as Mark Ross (71) and Chris Denham (72) found the net to cheer the travelling fans.
It was also a day to remember for Clitheroe in the Evo-Stik League as they came from behind to beat Harrogate Railway Athletic 3-1 at Shawbridge.
Carl Garner's men, playing their second game in 48 hours after their Saturday loss at Durham, were on the back foot from the moment Jon Maloney put the Yorkshire outfit ahead on 14 minutes.
But Marcus Calvert grabbed his first for the Blues on 75 minutes and then the prolific Ashley Parillon put Clitheroe ahead on 86 minutes from the penalty spot.
And then in stoppage time Parillon grabbed his second and Clitheroe's third to win the match.
In the North West Counties League Ramsbottom United were sent crashing to a shock loss at Squires Gate as Ben Fishwick's goal stunned the locals.
And it was a bad day for Padiham as they went down heavily to Silsden.
But the result of the day belonged to AFC Darwen.
Kenny Langford's Salmoners, without a win since October, were handed the horrid start to the New Year with the long trip up the M6 and along the A590 to Barrow for their game at Holker Old Boys.
But they had a day to remember as they crushed Holker 7-0.
Stephen Lee bagged a brace with Anthony Hodges, Gary Brown, Jonathan Aspden, Johnathan Hession and Ben Stanford scoring the others to make it a great journey back for the locals.
The weather also had its say with Colne's big North West Counties League local derby with Barnoldswick Town postponed because of a waterlogged XLCR Stadium pitch.
And it was a similar story at West View as Bacup Borough's home clash with AFC Blackpool went the same way. And Nelson's first game since the death of Jason Powrie was also a victim of the weather.

Gareth JonesRovers Fans Showing Support to Chorley F.C's fight against administration
Can I please appeal to all Rovers fans to read and share!!
This weekend we are playing away at Newcastle, I know a large number of fans will be travelling to the game, for those who aren't, I wish to re-highlight the plight of Chorley FC, currently managed by Rovers legends Gary Flitcroft, and Matt Jansen who also still plays for the club.
Chorley FC are in danger of entering administration due to no fault of the owners, chair, or board, a full police investigation is underway, as this well run clubs funds have been stripped from within, and are in desperate need of extra gate receipts and extra funds, and revenue. Between myself, Glenn, and Mark we have set aside this weekend's game at Chorley and are hoping to take a large number of fans along to hopefully help to save a great little grass roots club from the banks, a club that Gary & Matt have worked so hard for up to now, and have been achieving great things.
I know our club has its own difficulties, as they are well documented, although sometimes I think we forget what football is all about, for us younger generation it was about the days your parents took you to your first game in the 70's or 80's, that buzz you felt, that passion for something you never previously knew existed, the players, playing for a badge, for each other, not mercenaries paid hundreds of thousands of pounds a week, real football, and for the older generation the days that football meant something, a passion passed down through generations.
Well let me tell you these guys at Chorley FC are playing for each other, they play for their fans, and they play for a badge, the fans are ardent football people, from the ground up, to the board, they all work for one another, and it should serve as a reminder to us all that football has lost its meaning, yet it still exists in its rawest of forms to those who want to see what it's really about, and when these type of teams need support, I think we should be jumping in and saying that yes, for just one weekend it would be great to take some premiership money down the leagues, and also to show the media that not all our a fans are to be stereotyped by the media and other clubs after what happened against Bolton.
We are hoping to have details of coaches leaving Ewood on Saturday which will be around £3.00 return to the ground, we want as many fans to come along and pay on the gate at CFC as we can, to help save this club. Also I know money is tight to a lot of people but we are planning to donate what we can per head once in the ground, if it's a quid it's a quid if it's a tenner then great, everything we can do would help.
Below is a link to the event site (please sign in and confirm attendance) also we have links to the paypal site to those who just wish to donate, anyone who does donate, CFC wish you to provide your name and address and everyone will be personally thanked for their contribution, finally there is a link to the SAVE CFC page.
Thanks guys, anything anyone can do to help would be awesome, don't forget Flitty and Jansen will be there on the day too with us.

News and Press Releases
AUSTIN, TX, August 3, 2012 - Cable, Internet and telephone provider Grande Communications has wrapped up a three-year project to upgrade its network, and is gearing up for what executives say will probably be the company's biggest advertising campaign ever.
In Central Texas, Grande serves portions of Austin and San Marcos, where it's based. Its Austin coverage area is primarily in neighborhoods near downtown, president Matt Murphy said, as well as several apartment complexes citywide.
The company also has customers in Corpus Christi, Midland, Odessa, San Antonio and Waco.
Statewide, Grande has about 150,000 subscribers, said Murphy, who has led the company for three years. About half of its 650 employees, including Grande's technical support staff, are based in Central Texas.
"We've spent a lot of time, effort and money investing in our network," Murphy said. "We wanted to have as many products as possible so no one ever has a reason to leave us."
Grande didn't disclose the amount it spent on the upgrades.
Next up, Murphy said, will be an expansion of Grande's local network, making its services available to homes and businesses beyond Central Austin. That work is at least a year away, he said.
"We've been expanding our footprint in our other markets," Murphy said, "but Austin will be a much bigger undertaking."
The company's newest offerings include Internet service with speeds up to 110 megabits per second, the fastest available in Central Texas, according to Murphy. The company has also partnered with TiVo to roll out a digital video recorder, or DVR, service that can be programmed to record TV shows for later viewing, among other features.
Grande offers the NFL Network, which isn't available on Time Warner Cable, the area's dominant cable provider, Murphy said. And it's the only option for University of Texas fans in Central Texas hungry for the year-old Longhorn Network.
"Having the Longhorn Network has been great for us statewide, but in Austin, especially, we felt it was crucial to have," Murphy said. "It gave us a nice boost last year, but we're expecting even more this year."
The new marketing campaign includes radio, TV, print, online and direct mail ads promoting four packages that bundle Grande's services, Murphy said. Packages featuring Internet, cable and DVR service start at $79.99.
"We needed new direction and new capital," Murphy said. "Now, we feel it's time to start pushing the Grande brand again. It's been a while since we made a lot of noise."

PARIS — On the Fourth of July, I boarded a commuter train at a subterranean station a few blocks away from Notre Dame and the Sorbonne. The car was standing-room-only, but as we headed southwest out of the city, it began to empty out. When I disembarked at the town of Orsay, just over a half an hour from downtown Paris, there were fewer than 20 passengers.
I'd come to see the place where the French are hoping to create Europe's biggest education and innovation cluster, and possibly "the number three tech cluster in the world, after Boston and Silicon Valley," in the words of Patrick Cheenne, director of economic development at the Paris-Saclay Development Authority.

VMware is the primary hypervisor for 58 percent of organizations that use x86 virtualization software, with Citrix and Microsoft's Hyper-V splitting the rest of the market, a new survey finds.
Commissioned by virtualization management vendor Veeam and conducted by research group Vanson Bourne, the V-Index survey of more than 500 large businesses found that 92 percent have adopted virtualization, and deployed an average of 470 virtual machines. Although VMware is still the most widely used, it turns out multiple hypervisors in the same data center is fast becoming the norm. And with VMware's latest price increases, Microsoft and Citrix have a chance to chip into its lead.
[ Doing server virtualization right is not so simple. InfoWorld's expert contributors show you how to get it right in this 24-page "Server Virtualization Deep Dive" PDF guide. ]
IN PICTURES: The hottest virtualization products at VMworld
Fully 58 percent of companies using virtualization call VMware their primary hypervisor, while 20.2 percent put Citrix at the top of the list and 18.6 percent count Hyper-V first.
Yet when counting all virtualization use, 84 percent of virtualizing companies use VMware, 61 percent use Hyper-V, 55.4 percent use Citrix's XenServer and 12 percent use other hypervisors. Only 3 percent use an "other" hypervisor as their main one.
Vanson Bourne surveyed IT decision makers at 544 organizations in the United States, United Kingdom, France and Germany, each of which has at least 1,000 employees. Exactly half of the companies use virtualization.
The results suggest that Microsoft, until recently an also-ran in the virtualization market, is making progress. But with VMware being counted as the main hypervisor for nearly 60 percent of customers, it seems VMware is still the top choice for running mission critical applications.
Veeam said it will update the survey every three months.
While Veeam's survey provides a snapshot of today's usage, IDC's latest quarterly numbers show that customers are continuing to buy VMware products at a rapid pace.
In Q1 2011, worldwide sales of new virtualization licenses deployed into production on new or existing servers was 58 percent VMware, 26 percent Microsoft and 8 percent Citrix, with others accounting for the remainder, according to IDC.
Overall, 20 percent of new x86 servers have virtualization technology pre-installed or installed at the time of deployment, IDC also says. While Veeam's numbers suggest that most enterprises are using virtualization, the IDC survey shows that doesn't mean most of their servers are virtualized.
In fact, Veeam's survey also showed that just under 40 percent of servers are virtualized, with an average consolidation ratio of six virtual servers per host.

House Republicans Point Finger at Corzine for MF Global Collapse
According to a congressional report - Jon Corzine is to blame for the collapse of MF Global. The report details the findings of a year-long investigation by Republican staffers on the House Financial Services Oversight Subcommittee. While there is no mention of criminal wrongdoing in the report - Texas Representative Randy Neugebauer - Chairman of the House panel - says farmers, ranchers and other customers may never get back over a billion dollars of their money as a result of Corzine's decisions. Corzine's spokesman says 80-percent of that money has been returned. Corzine's team also denies nearly every claim made by the subcommittee. The leading Democrat on the subcommittee - Michael Capuano of Massachusetts - agrees with some of the report's observations. He says others need more commentary - which is why he and other Democrats will provide an addendum to the report.
MF Global filed for bankruptcy protection in October of 2011. Corzine resigned as Chairman and Chief Executive just days later. Corzine had previously served in the U.S. Senate and as Governor of New Jersey.

ETSU can keep ROTC program, under certain conditions
Updated On: Nov 06 2013 10:52:09 PM CST
The ROTC program at ETSU will stay open for now. And new tonight Congressman Phil Roe is sharing his relief with military men and women.
As we first reported last month, the army decided to shut down 13-programs across the United States.
But a call this afternoon from The Pentagon to Congressman Phil Roe announced the programs will continue for two years, under probation. One requirement is that the program graduate at least 15-officers each year.
We spoke with Congressman Roe about the Army's decision to give ETSU's ROTC program a second chance. He says he's very happy about the decision and says a lot of cadets share the same feeling. "I spoke to the ROTC cadets a little more than a week ago and I saw a lot of disappointed faces. This is a very good cadet program with a long history, 60 years in Johnson City and ETSU and I know there are going to be a lot of happy cadets and a very happy Commander."
Congressman Roe says ETSU plans to graduate about 20 cadets this spring and President Brian Noland issued a statement saying he's confident the program will continue to meet standards beyond 2015.
U.S. Senator Lamar Alexander also stated today that, "This is a major victory for students at these schools, and I thank Congressmen Roe, Black, and Fincher and Senator Corker for their leadership."

The Bluffton Township Fire District responded to reports of a structure fire early Wednesday morning in the Lowcountry.
The call went out shortly before 5 a.m. to a home at 210 Simmonsville Road in Bluffton.
Fire crews were able to get the fire out in 15 minutes but the home was destroyed. Officials say they believe the home was vacant and no injuries were reported.
WTOC was able to speak with the homeowner who said they just recently purchased the home 7 months ago and were currently fixing it up to eventually move in.
Bluffton Township Fire District, Beaufort County EMS and Bluffton Police all responded.
Simmonsville Road at New Mustang Drive was blocked while crews worked the scene but the road has since reopened.
The cause of the fire is under investigation.

Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) held another successful pay-per-view (PPV) last night (Aug. 31, 2013) at BMO Harris Bradley Center in Milwaukee, Wisconsin. Headlined by a Lightweight title bout between Anthony Pettis and Ben Henderson, the night saw some incredible action from top to bottom.
Anthony Pettis was able to score a surprising armbar submission to capture UFC gold, while Josh Barnett successfully made his return to the Octagon. Overall, it was a great way to close the month of August.
Anyway, about last night ...
More than a 'Showtime' pony
I didn't think Anthony Pettis had what it took to become UFC Lightweight champion. Sure, he's got good striking, but for the majority of his time in the UFC, he's never really displayed all-around skills. Last night changed everything. Not only was he able to stop numerous takedown attempts, but that armbar he locked up was incredibly slick. Here's hoping he can put together a run at the top.
I wasn't out, I was just resting my eyes!
The first round stoppage in the co-main event has been called premature. What I saw was Josh Barnett putting the wood to Frank Mir. Could it have gone for a few more strikes? Maybe. But when people are so quick to talk about fighter safety, I'm not going to complain when a guy who has been TKO'd six previous times in his UFC career isn't given more opportunity to fight back. Also that's three straight losses for Mir. What does the UFC do with him now?
Babyface or War Master? Who cares!
I'll be honest, there was a time when I just didn't get Josh Barnett. I didn't understand his style and really got wound up about the whole PEDs thing. Sure, he may have been the reason for the death of Affliction, but when he's in the cage, there are few better at heavyweight. He went straight after Frank Mir and made it look easy. The knees and uppercuts from the clinch? Just nasty. Now I want to see him again against maybe Travis Browne or Fabricio Werdum. Really, I just want to see him again.
Totally Money!
Chad Mendes has reinvented himself a bit since his time in World Extreme Cagefighting (WEC). Once known as a "boring" wrestler, he's now finished four straight opponents by TKO. The way he handled Clay Guida last night was masterful. He didn't force the KO, but when it finally came, it was violent. Dare I say that he deserves the next featherweight title shot over Ricardo Lamas? Hope so.
Brandon Vera and his terrible, horrible, no good, very bad day.
What happened to Brandon Vera? He once showed so much promise that people were legitimately talking about him potentially being a two division champion. Now? He's lucky if he isn't cut after that performance last night. How the mighty have fallen? I dunno, but it's pretty clear that he has something going on in his head that just isn't letting him put it all together inside the Octagon.
Additional Thoughts!
- Dustin Poirier continues to improve with every outing. His boxing was crisp and he landed numerous times on a very competent striker in Erik Koch. There are some concerns, namely that he found himself in some bad situations on the ground, but overall, that was the best performance of his career.
- Tim Elliott is a very interesting addition to the flyweight division. I don't know where his ceiling is, but it's pretty clear that he has the size and ability to create problems for some of the names in the division. A fight against Ian McCall or John Lineker would really give a solid indication on where he stands right now.
- Hyun Gyu Lim is ridiculously violent. I want to see him fight again.
- Chico Camus got a cooked hometown decision, especially the judge who scored the fight 30-27.
- Hopefully we don't get to see Soa Palelei or Nikita Krylov ever again.
- I saw a lot of Ben Rothwell and steroid jokes last night on twitter. I'm not going to make any here.

More than 224,000 people in Georgia have unclaimed property being held by the Georgia Department of Revenue. Could your name be on the list?
CBS46's Adam Murphy began asking the Department of Revenue about how they handle returning unclaimed property to the rightful owner a few months ago. At first, the department didn't want to share their list, or let us visit the vault. But we kept asking and learned they were legally bound to answer our questions. Once we got the list, we began calling individuals with the good news.
Doug Haaser got a nice surprise when CBS46 showed up at his front door in Alpharetta to tell him about $600 of unclaimed property being held in his name by the Georgia Department of Revenue.
"It's something you didn't know about, until we got a hold of you right?" Adam Murphy asked when Haaser answered the door.
"That's exactly true and it was kind of a surprise," said Haaser. "It's kind of like winning the lottery at that amount of money."
Haaser said the department's spokesperson told him the $600 comes from some old household services that he lost track of when he moved.
"She told me that there was over $500 from Comcast Cable and another $100 from United Parcel," said Haaser.
Haaser and his partner told CBS46 they plan to use their new found cash to pay off some bills.
"We were talking just before we got this call of how are we going to do the finances and what are we going to cut back on now this will go a long way to helping us out, " said Haaser.
In the pursuit of helping others out, CBS46 also found unclaimed property belonging to Lance Lourie of Atlanta.
"I think it was great that you all called me and I appreciate it," said Lourie.
Lourie said he found it hard to believe he was owed money; after all he's lived in the same home for more than 21 years and no one from the state ever told him about the unclaimed property.
"I don't think they looked for me," said Lourie laughing.
Lourie is getting back $138 of his own money, mostly from an old Comcast account, plus six shares of old stock.
"Well, I'm glad to get it back. It belongs to me and I'm certainly wanting these shares of stock back to see what they are," said Lourie.
While Lourie was searching for his unclaimed property he decided to type in some co-workers' names.
"You have unclaimed property with the State of Georgia," Lourie told co-worker Sue Protzman.
"You're kidding!" said Protzman.
"I looked up your name," said Lourie.
Sue Protzman typed in her information and learned she was owed $86.
Last, but not least, the Cabrera family got a big treat when we showed up at their home in Marietta.
"Are you excited about this money?" asked Adam Murphy as they opened their front door.
"Yes we are," said Migdalia Cabrera, laughing. "Thank you so much."
Cabrera told CBS46 the family was getting $954.06 of their own money back from the state.
"They come after you when you owe money," said Cabrera. "They don't wait, but we have to wait for our money from 2004!"
It turns out the family lost track of the money when they moved to a new home. It comes from old accounts with NCR Corporation, Wells Fargo and Comcast. The Cabreras plan to use it to pay off some medical bills from last year.
"No one ever calls you to tell you there's money out there for you so we're very grateful to CBS for contacting us and making that investigation known and more people should know about this," said Cabrera.
If you think you might be one of the 224,000 Georgians owed money by the state, here is the list. Once you find your name then go to the Department of Revenue Unclaimed Property website and just type in your name and city and click search.

The Most Racist Cities in the U.S.
The issue of racism has gone largely unaddressed by this year's nominees for president, but there's no question that many voters see the contest in black and white. Racism runs deep and wide in America, despite the better angels of our nature and the bitter divisions of our past. Anyone searching for evidence won't have to look far — you can find it in your neighborhood, if not at your own breakfast table. But where is bigotry most rampant? Which cities are America's most racist?
Drew Magary, an editor at Gawker, wants to find out. After penning a piece on the Five Most Racist Cities in America — naming Birmingham, Boston, Phoenix, New York and Cincinnati — Magary drew comments from users complaining that their city did not make his original, admittedly unscientific list. Surely, there are cities more deserving of the title, they balked, where ignorance runs through like it's in the water supply. To be sure he doesn't show any bias to one metropolis over the next, Magary has invited readers to help in the Search for the Most Racist City in America.
Initial candidates in the racist-city census have been posted this week. First up is Philadelphia. The City of Brotherly Love, Magary notes, has been home to historic race riots, and deified mayor Frank Rizzo had a volatile relationship with Philly's African-American community during his tenure in the '70s. The horrific incident on Osage Avenue in 1985, in which police dropped a bomb from a helicopter to end an armed confrontation with the radical group MOVE — touching off a neighborhood fire and killing 11 people, including five children — also helps earn Philly an ignoble distinction. Boston was next to be dishonored, with a nod to the Sox for being the last MLB team to integrate their roster, followed by St. Louis, with a note from one Missourian about how the city is carved up into black and white sections "like a checkerboard."
Racism comes in all different colors, so to speak, and your city may make a winning candidate whether it's woven through with longstanding, institutionalized racism, racism acquired based on personal experiences, or what-not-me denial. So show some love and tell them where you see hate.
Good thing, at least, that racism is contained within city lines. All clear in the 'burbs.
An earlier version of this post mischaracterized the MOVE incident of 1985. A prior incident between MOVE and police resulted in the shooting death of one police officer in 1978.

You are correct. But, they sure like our tax dollars that we are forced to give them so they can conitinue to proceate more parasites. I wish tax payers truely had a voice on where/how the moneys are distributed. If you are not a tax payer, you should not have a voice- for obvious reasons.

If you are playing Purdue in the first round of the NCAA Tournament, you're screwed and you might as well say goodbye to your dreams. We've seen the men's basketball team win 14 straight 1st round games, the women's basketball team has performed just as well over the last couple of years, and then there's Coach Shondell's team.
Under Coach Shondell, the team has NEVER lost a 1st Round game since he began coaching. His first NCAA Tournament game with Purdue was in 2004 at Fort Collins, CO against #9 Colorado State. Purdue upset CSU 3-2 in Purdue's first NCAA appearance since 1990. 8 years later, Coach Shondell led his Purdue squad against CSU again, this time in Tallahassee, as they beat the Rams 3-0.
The story of this game was the service errors. If I had played a drinking game related to service errors, I'd be dead right now. Purdue had 10 service errors to CSU's 13 service errors. That's not horribad, but that's also not good. It was worse in the 1st set where Purdue had 6 service errors, but CSU didn't fix the problem until the 3rd set when it was already too late.
Purdue seemed to be in control in the latter half of each set, and CSU did not give them that much trouble outside of their short runs that were led by the terrific blocking exhibited today by both teams. Colorado State has seen better days as it is traditionally one of the better non-major conference programs. But today, the team must travel back to Fort Collins after losing in the 1st round for the first time since 2006.
Ariel Turner finished with 13 kills, hitting 0.257, and finished short of a double-double with 9 digs. However, After tonight's game, Ariel Turner joined an elite club of Boilermakers as she has now earned over 1,000 kills AND 1,000 digs in her Purdue career. Simply an amazing feat! It is difficult to move back and forth between front and back court during a match, but somehow, Ariel Turner has mastered it.
Other notable stats include Val Nichol finishing the night with 9 kills and a hitting percentage of 0.368. Kiki Jones gave Purdue the boost they need with 6 thunderous kills and finished with an amazing 0.857 hitting percentage, and Carly Cramer finished with 10 digs, with Davis and Fox also finishing with 8 digs each. This team seems to play much better with Davis at setter, as she finishes with 34 assists.
Up next for Purdue is the winner of the Florida State/ Hofstra currently being played (FSU leads 7-4 in the first set). Florida State upset Purdue last year in the Sweet 16 before they went on to advance to the Final Four. It will be interesting to see how the match plays out tomorrow in Tallahassee and if Purdue seeks revenge, or if FSU keeps the Boilers down again.

CBS Sports will have a camera dedicated to following quarterback Johnny Manziel's every movement during this Saturday's SEC showdown between Texas A&M and Alabama, according to Sports Illustrated.
CBS says coverage of the game won't turn into a Manziel circus with coordinating producer Craig Silver comparing it to the network's previous coverage of former Florida quarterback Tim Tebow. Silver told SI his goal for the game is to "remember there is a lot more going on than Johnny Manziel."
It's impossible to know how much CBS will switch to the "Johnny Cam" during the game, but with the amount of controversy surrounding the quarterback, it's a safe bet that there will be a lot of attention directed his way.
The reigning Heisman winner has had a busy start to the football season. He was suspended for two quarters in the Aggies' opener, ending an NCAA investigation into whether or not he received money for his autograph. When he finally entered the game, he threw three touchdowns in just eight attempts, celebrating with a money gesture and a mimed autograph signing before getting benched after receiving this taunting penalty.
The incident prompted a storm of angry reactions from college football figures, including Lou Holtz and Barry Switzer, who both preferred violence to Texas A&M head coach Kevin Sumlin's form of discipline.
Saturday's game should be one of the biggest of the college football season -- Alabama is the top-ranked team in the country while Texas A&M is ranked sixth. Kickoff is scheduled for 3:30 p.m. ET on CBS.
Be sure to check in with Good Bull Hunting and Roll 'Bama Roll for more coverage leading up to the game.

In the first case of your fair, however, you can use either. You watched people for a while -- there was duration. In your second example, you just say "we went" not "we observed" so the simple past would sound more natural to me.

An investigation into the December homicide of a Deer Park woman has revealed that a call to the 911 communications center from the victimŌĆÖs cellular phone was not immediately forwarded to the sheriffŌĆÖs office for investigation.
Spokane County SheriffŌĆÖs Department Public Information Officer Craig Chamberlin explained that hang-up calls into the 911 center fall into two categories. A Phase One call gives the cellular phone number and the cellular tower location. A Phase Two call gives the number plus the latitude and longitude of the cellular phone.
The Deer Park Stags had no answer for ClarkstonŌĆÖs inside game, especially in the first half, as the Bantams rolled to a 62-42 win on Tuesday.
ClarkstonŌĆÖs power game helped the Bantams build a 15-point lead early in the second quarter.
The Stags managed to cut the lead to 36-24 on a pair of 3-pointers from Uconn Peone, only to have the BantamsŌĆÖ Drew Adams answer with a long range jumper just before intermission.
For most of the second half, the Bantams were content to play a ball control offense.
The StagsŌĆÖ last hurrah came on a Zach Mohr 3-pointer that closed the game to 45-34.

The Memphis District, U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, initiated Phase II floodfighting activities at 7 a.m. on April 24, 2011 due to high Ohio and Mississippi river stages.
The area of current flooding is located in the northern portion of the Memphis District and includes areas of western Kentucky and Tennessee, southern Illinois and the bootheel of Missouri.
"Based on current National Weather Service forecasts, we are anticipating near-record flood levels in many parts of the Memphis District," Col. Vernie Reichling, the Corps' Memphis District Commander said. "We have not seen levels predicted this high since 1937."
Phase II floodfight activities begin when the river gage at Cairo, Ill., reaches 52.0 feet with a sustained rise forecasted. As of 3 p.m. on April 24, the river stage at Cairo is 53 feet with a forecasted crest of 58.5 feet. The river stage at Cape Girardeau, Mo., at 3 p.m. on April 24 is 38.8 feet with a forecasted crest of 44.5 feet. Flood stage at Cape Girardeau is 32.0 feet.
The reduction of risk to life and property is our number one priority," Col. Reichling said.
"Although there is always some residual risk, we will bring to bear all available resources to ensure we meet our commitment to public safety."
During Phase II floodfight activities, Corps of Engineers personnel begin more intensive monitoring of flood control works including levees, floodwalls and pumping stations. They also make technical and materiel assistance available to local communities and flood control organizations to aid them in their floodfighting efforts.
As part of their routine Phase II response efforts, the Memphis District has established field offices in Cape Girardeau, Mo., and Dyersburg, Tenn., with eight field personnel assigned to each office. Additionally, the Memphis District's Caruthersville, Mo., Area Office has eight field personnel assigned to their area of responsibility.
At Corps District Headquarters in Memphis, Readiness Branch Chief Steve Barry said he expects to begin Phase I floodfight activities in the Memphis and West Memphis areas sometime around May 1.
The Corps' Emergency Operations Center (EOC) in Memphis has gone to Activation Level III with elevated staffing to provide Command and Control support for the response effort. The EOC is staffed 12 hours per day, with personnel on call 24 hours per day.
The Corps' Division Headquarters in Vicksburg, Miss, coordinates all floodfight activities in the Mississippi Valley. The Corps' Emergency Operations Center in Memphis is directing these floodfight activities in conjunction with the affected states, levee districts and other local interest groups.
The Memphis District's flood risk reduction system has prevented more than $4.3 billion in flood damages and protected more than five million acres of cropland in the last decade alone.

Magic Moments, the only organization dedicated exclusively to granting wishes for Alabama children, will turn a dream into a reality for one Alabama girl this weekend.

Photo: © PA
They're both multi-million selling US artists who rose to diva status in the Eighties. And Madonna and Whitney Houston have plenty in common when it comes to their fashion choices too.
The singers stepped out in the same outfit – a snow leopard print Dolce & Gabbana satin shift dress – at VIP outings in Europe this week.
In Milan, the 50-year-old Material Girl joined the makers of the £1,600 outfit, Domenico Dolce and Stefano Gabbana, for dinner to celebrate another performance of her Sticky & Sweet world tour.
And joining the group was Jesus Luz, Madonna's 22-year-old model boyfriend, who is the new face of the Italian fashion label.
Meanwhile in London, Whitney launched her musical comeback - with her new album - wearing the funky knee-length number, which is the highlight of the latest D&G campaign.
A spokesperson for the fashion house couldn't say which A-lister snapped up the silhouette-skimming creation first. "It was not planned. Whitney loves Dolce & Gabbana and wears it often – as does Madonna," said the rep.

A Greenville County Deputy was taken to the hospital after a four vehicle accident on I-385 in Greenville Tuesday afternoon.
According to the South Carolina Highway Patrol, at around 5:40 PM on Tuesday, traffic began to slow in the Southbound lane of I-385.
A Ford Explorer driven by Travis Callaham was unable to come to a stop and slammed into the back of a Greenville County Deputy's vehicle.
The impact of the collision caused the deputy's vehicle to collide with the back end of another vehicle and then that vehicle hit the next vehicle in line.
Callaham, the driver of the Explorer was charged with driving too fast for conditions.
Greenville County Sheriff's deputy Christopher Horrell was injured in the crash and was transported to Greenville Memorial.
There is no update on his condition at this time.
Update June 11 11:18 PM
Traffic is snarled on Interstate 385 in Greenville after a wreck involving a patrol car.
It happened on I-385 south at Roper Mountain Road.
Two lanes are currently closed while responders are on the scene.
Pictures from our crews on the scene show the wreck involving a Greenville County Sheriff's Office patrol car. Traffic is backed up to Haywood Road.
