Germany? Before the beginning there was Ginnungagap, an empty space of nothingness, filled with pure creative power. (Sort of like the inside of my head.)
And it ends with Ragnarok, the twilight of the Gods. In between is much fighting, betrayal and romance. Just as a good Godly story should be.
Heroes have their own graveyard called Valhalla. Unfortunately we cannot show you a panorama of it at this time, nor of the lovely Valkyries who are its escort service.
Hail Odin, wandering God wielding wisdom and wand! Hail Freya, hail Tyr, hail Thor!
Odin made the many lakes and the fish in them. In his traverses across the lands he caused there to be the Mulheim Bridge in Cologne, as did he make the Mercury fountain, Mercury being of his nature.
But it is to the mighty Thor that the Hammering Man gives service.
Between the time of the Nordic old ones and that of modern Frankfort there may have been a T.Rex or two on the scene. At least some mastodons for sure came through for lunch, then fell into tar pits to become fossils for us to find.
And there we must leave you, O my most pure and holy children.

VBT Bicycling and Walking Vacations Announces 5 Cross-Country Skiing Vacations for 2014
Cross-Country Skiing in the Alps, the Dolomites, the Green Mountains, the Canadian Rockies or Yellowstone National Park Makes for a Perfect Winter Escape paired with VBT's Tradition of Excellence and Unsurpassed Value.
BRISTOL, VT—VBT Bicycling and Walking Vacations has announced its 2014 line of cross-country skiing vacations, including new tours to Yellowstone National Park and Vermont's Green Mountains. With VBT, active travelers will experience new cultures, delicious cuisine and world-class accommodations after a soul satisfying day of cross-country skiing along the groomed trails in some of the world's most spectacular winter destinations.
"We had a very successful first year of cross-country skiing trips and have designed two brand new winter vacations for active travelers to enjoy for a total of five ski tours in 2014," VBT President Gregg Marston said. "Whichever you choose, know that there is plenty to explore both on and off the trails as these vacations aren't just about skiing." The VBT Cross-Country Ski vacations will bring travelers to 5-star resorts as well as into the homes of the locals. Travelers will enjoy diverse, worldly foods like the rich cuisine of alpine Italy or the hearty dishes of the west in Yellowstone and Banff. With plenty of free time guests may choose to swap out their skis and cruise through the snow on dog sleds or snowshoes, enjoy a romantic sleigh ride, or even take a day on their own to downhill ski at a world class resort - the possibilities are endless on these VBT ski vacations.
"I believe that cross-country skiing is a winter pastime that everybody can enjoy, even if you've never tried it before. For the 2014 season we've even added beginning departures for each of our trips," Marston continued. "Like walking or biking, it's not a sport that requires exceptional balance, dexterity or extra-ordinary stamina—anyone can do it!
VBT's 2014 Cross-Country Skiing Vacations include:
NEW! Yellowstone in the Winter: Skiing America's First National Park
Bozeman • Yellowstone National Park • Old Faithful •Mammoth Hot Springs • Lamar Valley
NEW! A New England Winter: Cross-Country Skiing in Vermont
Burlington •Middlebury • Green Mountain National Forest • Stowe
Slovenia, Italy & Austria: Cross-Country Skiing the Alps
Kranjska Gora • Valbruna • Tarvisio • Planica • Ramsau
Italy: Cross-Country Skiing the Dolomites
Lienz • Dobbiaco • Cavalese • Passo Lavaze
Banff & Beyond: Cross-Country Skiing the Canadian Rockies
Kananaskis • Canmore • Banff • Lake Louise
All of these vacations were designed by VBT Product Manager Garrott Kuzzy. Kuzzy's experience as a US Ski team member and 2010 Winter Olympian brought him around the globe, where he spent time at the world's top ski destinations – many of which inspired our VBT ski vacations. "After an outstanding first season of our cross-country ski tours, we're excited about adding two winter vacations closer to home in Yellowstone National Park and Vermont" Kuzzy says. "Our Yellowstone National Park tour offers a great balance of visiting some of the iconic National Park features like Old Faithful and Grand Prismatic Spring, as well as exploring off the beaten track as we take a safari into the Lamar Valley to scout for wolves, elk, and bison or ski away from the roads to the aptly named Tower Falls."
True to its Vermont roots, VBT is also rolling out its first winter vacation in the Green Mountains, during which guests will have time to explore two of the state's most iconic towns, Stowe and Middlebury. "Right here in our backyard, the new Vermont Ski Tour is as much about the après as it is about the ski," Kuzzy said. "Although the tour offers some of the rustic scenery you might expect on a hut-to-hut tour, our accommodations at the Swift House Inn and Trapp Family Lodge are decidedly more comfortable than any hut. Of course, we'll have the opportunity to sample some of Vermont's finest beer and wine as we warm up by the fire in the evening at our favorite local hangouts."
On all cross-country skiing vacations, VBT provides free use of all the skiing equipment a traveler would need—top-quality skis, boots, and poles—with a choice of skate skis or waxless classic skis, depending on the traveler's preferences. Since there will be a variety of daily trail options, travelers can pace themselves as they wish, and the lodge or hotel will usually be very close to the trails. VBT also provides two expert, local Trip Leaders to provide fascinating insights into the culture and assist on and off the trail.
As always, VBT's travel experts have selected unforgettable accommodations in beautiful natural settings—framed by towering eruptions of the Old Faithful Geyser or the craggy peaks of the Dolomites—including the Old Faithful Snow Lodge in Yellowstone NP; Deer Lodge, in Lake Louise, Canada; Trapp Family Lodge in Stowe, VT; Hotel Maria in Cavalese, Italy; and Hotel Vitranc in Kranjska-Gora, Slovenia.
Travelers can extend their discoveries and their value by adding optional, affordable extensions. On Yellowstone in the Winter: Skiing America's First National Park, travelers can opt for a 2 night pre-trip in the classic western town of Bozeman, MT. On A New England Winter: Cross-Country Skiing in Vermont, travelers can choose a pre-trip extension in Burlington, VT on the shores of Lake Champlain. Slovenia, Italy & Austria: Cross-Country Skiing the Alps offers a pre-trip extension in romantic Venice and a post-trip extension in Salzburg, the city of Mozart. Italy: Cross-Country Skiing the Dolomites offers a pre-trip extension in Salzburg and a post-trip extension in Verona. Banff & Beyond: Cross-Country Skiing the Canadian Rockies features a pre-trip extension in rollicking Calgary.
To encourage novice skiers to participate in these wonderful vacations, VBT is making one departure to each destination designated for beginners only. These include January 10, 2014 for Slovenia, Italy & Austria: Cross-Country Skiing the Alps; January 26, 2014 for Yellowstone in the Winter: Skiing America's First National Park ; February 2, 2014 for Banff & Beyond: Cross-Country Skiing the Canadian Rockies; February 9, 2014 for A New England Winter: Cross-Country Skiing in Vermont and February 14, 2014 for Italy: Cross-Country Skiing the Dolomites.
Founded in 1971 by a Middlebury College professor, VBT offers deluxe, small group bicycling, walking and cross-country ski tours worldwide, including destinations in Europe, Costa Rica, New Zealand, Vietnam, Thailand, Peru, Argentina, Canada and the United States. Each trip includes all accommodations, many meals, two expert local Trip Leaders, unique sightseeing and cultural activities, and full van support for biking and walking vacations. Unlike other companies, VBT also includes roundtrip international airfare from up to 30 U.S. cities for all overseas vacations.
For reservations or more information, and to receive the new 2014 cross-country skiing vacations catalog, call 1-800-245-3868 or request one here.

So we can silence the Scott Gomez to Columbus thoughts, as the Rick Nash saga appears to be over. This afternoon, the Columbus Blue Jackets traded their captain to the New York Rangers. Minor league rearguard Steven Delisle and a conditional third-round selection in the 2013 NHL Draft also go to New York. In exchange, Columbus gets forwards Brandon Dubinsky and Artem Anisimov, defenseman Tim Erixon and the Rangers' first-round selection in the 2013 draft. Columbus will regain its third-round pick if the Rangers make it to the 2013 Stanley Cup Final. Nash waived his no-movement clause prior to the trade, which is conditional on all players passing a physical by 5 p.m. ET on Wednesday. Barring injuries, or further transactions, the Rangers forward lines should look something like this. Carl Hagelin - Brad Richards - Rick Nash Chris Kreider - Derek Stepan - Marian Gaborik Taylor Pyatt - Brian Boyle - Ryan Callahan Mike Rupp - Jeff Halpern - Arron Asham More foillow-up from our SBN counterparts at Blueshirt Banter and The Cannon For those asking, BJ's GM Scott Howson has said nothing on Twitter over the deal. For that matter, he's tweeted nothing since February, the same time Nash made it clear he wanted out of the Buckeye State.

This is the obvious smear to the right of Stettner's Ledges dihedrals. If it reaches the ground, climb directly up. It's usually pretty thin down there when it reaches so be ready for 40' of unprotected climbing. If the Smear doesn't reach, climb in via diagonal thin cracks on the left. Pitch one is the crux either way. Belay above the overlaps from old bolts if they're not covered. Set up an ice belay otherwise. P2 cruises up rolling terrain to a belay under the large roofs.

In Zimmerman, Minn., there are four finalists for Homecoming King, all four eager to be crowned, excited about the opportunity.
Just days before the announcement, the student council approached the boys with an idea that none of them could turn down.
It is certainly a stereotype but when it comes to homecoming royalty, the guys chosen are usually athletes. Such the case this year in Zimmerman, three football players: Craig Steiskal, Hunter Smith and Lee Christopherson all finalists along with soccer player David Molinary
Winning for these athletes came in a much bigger way this year now that they called an audible, formulating a play involving senior Jonah Skrove
"That plan, what it would do, how it would affect Jonah, his family, how it would feel -- I felt like that would be more of a memory for everyone than just who won the crown," Smith said.
Skrove, who is in this year's play, is back at school after a lengthy absence. Bone cancer not only took away his junior year, but also his right leg.
"It's made me a lot more appreciative of everything," Skrove said.
That appreciation hit a new level during the homecoming pep rally.
"I went on the mic and said, 'Thank you for this honor, but we as a court believe that there is someone more deserving of this crown,'" Smith said.
That's when the four young men started walking towards Skrove.
"When they first started walking towards me it was a little bit of nervousness," Skrove said.
"I announced to everybody, 'Jonah Skrove, we believe you are a better fitting king than any of us,'" Smith said.
Skrove was shocked.
"I was like, 'Oh you got to be kidding me' -- I didn't see that coming at all," Skrove said.
The crowd went wild, then started chanting Jonah's name. There wasn't a dry eye in the gym.
"Not going to lie, when we crowned him, I was holding back tears," Christopherson said.
"You don't think about it until it happens to someone so close to you," Steiskal said.
"All of us kind of wanted to make his senior year better than anyone else's senior year and compensate for that time lost," Smith said.
Zimmerman is a small school known for fighting through adversity when playing bigger schools, but this may have been the school's biggest win of all.
"He's fighting like we do in sports. He's not the biggest person, but he's always there fighting so that's why I say he's the fighting spirit of Zimmerman," Christopherson said.
"You can never expect what people are going to do. You have to give them the benefit of the doubt that they will do something better than you think they will, or they will become something better than you would actually would have guessed," Skrove said.
Skrove finished chemo in August and at this point, there are no signs it has spread. For the 17-year-old, the surprises keep coming. For his Make-A-Wish, he's going to Japan where his older brother who is in the military is stationed.

WICOMICO CO., Md. - Picture a traffic stop with a car pulled over for speeding.
Marijuana is visible, but the amount unclear: is there nine or 11 grams? Does the officer make an eyeball judgment or break out a scale? Is the offender booked and brought to the station?
These just some of the questions investigators at WBI have, weeks after a bill passed to decriminalize small amounts of marijuana for Marylanders."We will all have to get training," said Sgt. David Owens. "Like so many other times when the law changes, there's still things that are quite worked out because we haven't lived that situation yet."Gov. Martin O'Malley (D) signed the bill this month that calls for a $100 fine for possession of 10 grams or less. That's for a first offense. Fines increase after that, but they're civil offenses.
More than 10 grams though and it's a crime. As is drug paraphernalia.
What's still hazy to investigators is if they'll have probable cause for a search on minimal amounts of the drug."If we're processing for the civil citation and we find cocaine, heroin, whatever, are we still okay or not?" asks Owens.In the next two weeks, state's attorneys and officers across Maryland will meet in Annapolis, discussing how to handle the new normal of decriminalization.
Maryland is the 17th state to decriminalize marijuana. The way the law reads now can change over time as more is known and case laws are pushed through the courts determining what police can and cannot do.

Residence Life & Student Housing
About 2,000 students call the halls "home". However, the residence halls are more than a convenient place to sleep! SMU is committed to providing an exceptional residential experience of living and learning together. Many factors combine to form this experience, including programs that support student learning and communities that support residents and help them feel more connected to the University. For most students, residence halls are an introduction to group living. This can be a wonderful and rewarding experience that residents value for the rest of their lives.
Living in the halls can be rewarding and fun, however, it can also be a challenge. The Residence Hall Community Standards have been established, in conjunction with the Residence Hall Association, as fundamental guidelines for group living. These standards seek to balance individual freedoms with rights of the community, to establish communities that recognize and celebrate the dignity and self worth of all community members, and to hold residents accountable when they choose to violate these standards.
Who is "in charge" of the halls? Who can residents turn to for help? The Hall Staff, of course! From Resident Assistants on the floors, to the Residential Community Director, the Assistant Director, and the Facility Manager, residents have many resources for assistance.
The Residence Hall Association and Community Councils are terrific opportunities to get involved in campus life, meet people, learn how to organize events, tackle issues and gain invaluable leadership experience. Each residence hall has a hall council which works with the Hall staff to shape the living experience.
RHA is the voice of residents to the Department of Residence Life & Student Housing and to the greater campus community. All residents are members of RHA by living in a residence hall. Leaders and officers are elected representatives from each hall.

In just five seconds an electronic control device, commonly known as a taser, fires electrical probes giving your body a shock.
While many law enforcement officers have it, some say it's over used.
However, Sgt. Cristy Hamblin with the Cedar Rapids Police Department says every officer carrying a taser has gone through extensive training and procedures to properly use it. Every officer has also tased themselves, so they know exactly how that electric shock really feels.
"It's really just another tool that we carry on our belt," says Hamblin. "We can train every possible scenario, but unfortunately the police officers aren't in control of that scenario. It's the individual that has the other weapon."
Sgt. Hamblin says officers have many options when it comes to defusing a situation, from simply telling an individual to comply, to the use of a firearm.
Though she says it all depends on the person's compliance to the officers orders.
"Once they have either seen or heard about it being utilized, a lot of times you can see with our statistics, even just the deployment of it, that alone may be a deterrent in itself as well," says Hamblin.
In 2013 the department deployed a taser as use of force 29 times and displayed the weapon 12, something they say shows even the non-use of it, is effective.
"With the use of the electronic controlled device, it is for five-second bursts and at the end of that five seconds, they make that determination whether they're going to comply with the officer's orders," says Hamblin.
The police department have internal mechanisms in place, that help them evaluate an officer's utilization of the taser as the best option, but that's measured on a case-by-case basis.

The Hyundai Equus luxury sedan is substantially freshened for 2014 with minor exterior changes, major interior upgrades, and a host of new comfort, convenience and safety features.
When Korean automaker Hyundai launched its Genesis near-luxury sedan and sport coupe, many wondered why it didn't also create a new upscale brand as did Japanese rivals Toyota (Lexus), Honda (Acura) and Nissan (Infiniti). Then Hyundai followed with the larger, plusher full-luxury Equus, explaining again that creating a new brand was a long, expensive process that they didn't deem necessary. So this big, lavishly equipped car takes aim at premium sedans costing tens of thousands more. And, if it comes up a bit short of Germany's best in ultimate handling and feel, the 2014 Hyundai Equus has the style, performance, luxury and features to bring its value pitch to the flagship-sedan category, despite sharing its badge and showroom with Accents and Sonatas.

PEORIA, Ill. -- Some of the Illinois' future leaders are taking action on today's Congressional issues.
Students from six area high schools gathered at Bradley University Wednesday for the 2012 Congressional Insight Challenge.
The fast-paced computer simulation introduces students to Congress as newly elected members.
The challenge is designed to encourage students to discuss and decide on real life issues that Congress is currently facing.
"These are real congressional numbers and percentages, really demographics that are true to a congressional district," said Nathan Willet, Dunlap High School Junior.
"They have to make these choices in the simulation today in very limited amounts of time," explained Brad McMillan, Executive Director of the Institute of Principled Leadership at Bradley. "Which is very realistic to a member of Congress."
At the end of the simulation, students are put up for re-election based on their decisions.

text: The consensus among Lions fans is that if the team is going to make changes along the offensive line, right tackle is a position that would rank among the top priorities. But the tape says otherwise. ORT Gosder Cherilus, who underperformed his first two seasons, actually was having his best year to date before going on injured reserve with a knee injury. Cherilus had allowed only two sacks in 12 games, committed a mere three penalties (two holding calls) and was better at handling top base ends. The Lions are confident that Cherilus will be able to rehabilitate from his microfracture surgery and be ready for the start of 2011 without setback. In the meantime, they'll get an extended chance to evaluate Corey Hilliard in his place and see what he's capable of. The line will need reinforcement next season, but the team must focus on improving the interior more than at right tackle, assuming there are no snags in Cherilus' progress after surgery.

State Sen. Lee Bright has launched his website teasing ahead to a U.S. Senate campaign run against Sen. Lindsey Graham.
Bright announced on social media Tuesday, "It's almost time. Will you join us?" linking to his new website, brightforsenate.com.
While the website is still in the works, it asks visitors to sign up for his newsletter to get his campaign announcement video as soon as he makes it official.
The Roebuck lawmaker said he is waiting to see how the field shapes up before making his formal announcement. Bright was elected to the Senate in 2008.
Two other candidates are already in the race. Anderson businessman Richard Cash and Charleston businesswoman Nancy Mace agree with Bright that Graham is not conservative enough for South Carolina.
Graham was elected to the U.S. Senate in 2002 after Strom Thurmond stepped aside.

The luster of a blowout victory is wearing off, the countdown to the 2012 season has begun and quite frankly, the Twitter jokes are getting bland.
So let's take a look back at the moments that brought WVU a 70-33 win over Clemson in the Discover Orange Bowl a week ago today.
It seems like it's been longer than that. This highlight video could have easily come to you the day after the game, but a series of events (and trying to get over missing the South Florida beaches) led to a delay.
But why spend the whole game shooting the action on my camera if I wasn't going to share it with you? I don't keep video of West Virginia's season for my own personal enjoyment -- I keep it to use in television reports and right here on the web.
Remember some of the key plays in West Virginia's third BCS bowl victory through my eyes.

On May 10 last season, Ike Davis collided with David Wright. Davis limped back to his position, hoping to stay in the game. The initial diagnosis was that he had a calf strain.
Then he was diagnosed with a left-ankle sprain and a bone bruise, and he was expected back in a couple of weeks.
Then he was diagnosed with a deep bone bruise, which is the same as above, but after a discussion on Foucault in a smokey dorm room.
Then his foot never left the walking boot. He was supposed to be out for three weeks; he kept the boot on for months.
Then there were rumors of microfracture surgery, a parade of ankle specialists, and multiple cortisone shots.
Later he was diagnosed with Valley Fever, which doesn't really apply to the timeline of his bum ankle, but it seems relevant as way to make you wonder which wife of a Greek god he slept with.
The point is that Ike Davis had a lost year to trump all lost years. He started off his 2010 looking like he might enjoy a breakout season, and he ended it as a piece of Mets-related symbolism. There was good news buried up there, though. He was rumored to need microfracture surgery, but he didn't. He recovered without surgery, and he had an encouraging spring, hitting four home runs and playing in 20 games -- as many as most of the Mets' starters. He was back on track.
And the track was leading off a cliff as a Carl Stalling soundtrack played in the background. Davis has been terrible -- one of the worst hitters in baseball. Albert Pujols is asking what in the hell is wrong with Ike Davis.
The first inclination is to check the usual indicators. Davis' batting average on balls put in play is .203 -- among the worst in either league. Well, there you have it. Case solved. With a little better luck, Davis will be back to the franchise cornerstone he was supposed to be.
Except that isn't the whole story. Batters have a lot more control over their batting average on balls in play than pitchers do. Davis's walk rate is way down. His strikeout rate is up. And his ground-ball rate is almost 2:1. He's pounding the ball into the ground more than he ever has. You knew something was off by looking at a .168/.225/.274 line. The walks, the contact rate, and the grounders all give you an idea that something might be wrong other than poor luck, as do his numbers over at FanGraphs. He's swinging at more pitches out of the strike zone and missing more pitches in the strike zone. That's a pretty brutal combination.
But this isn't an article purporting to fix Davis, or at least one that tells you what's wrong. The important stat up there is plate appearances: 102. Here's how one of those started:
Here's how it ended:
So that's one percent of his season that was mercilessly pulled from him from an umpire who was tired of watching a doubleheader. Add in a couple of hard-hit outs, some pitchers who guessed right and picked the exact right pitch to fool Ike Davis at that particular moment, and ground balls that refuse to find holes, and you can see how the bad luck can add up early in the season. That isn't to say that Davis isn't struggling, or that he isn't broken. He might be. We just don't know everything yet.
And we probably won't for a few months still. But as the season progresses -- and as the rest of the Mets team hits better than most of us expected -- Davis' struggles will become more and more noticeable. No player can keep hitting this poorly without the team exploring some drastic options.
Think about a young player you're high on right now. Now project what he'll be doing in a year. Then think of Ike Davis and what you thought of him a year ago. Baseball, man. Baseball.

Announcing a major change in our release structure – please read
In an effort to make our content both finished and unfished more accessible to the public, we are phasing out our current system that bills our content into major "releases" in favour of a model that allows content to be released more gradually and frequently.
Starting from our next update/release (which should come soon), we will no longer be releasing content based on the "eight major releases" plan. Given the lengthy (and increasinly non-linear) nature of TR's development, we have decided that our prior approach no longer suits our needs or desires to release content to you in a timely fashion.
Instead, we will be taking the approach of simply adding onto the main download as we finish areas, wherever and whenever they become playable. You will be recieving bite-sized chunks of our content gradually as we progress towards completion. We are moving to a single release/update stream where both minor bugfixes and additions will happen simultaneously. So rather than say a major "Almalexia" 1.0 release, followed by subsequent bugfixes, you will get a single update with a snapshot of all progress. Some updates will be major, and some not as much. Think of it as your operating system updating itself throughout the course of its' life. This should reduce the confusion and consolidate all releases from now on. Any land additions to the main file will be marked and emphasized in the changelog.
We are also merging our Alpha and Main releases in the same stream, instead of releasing them seperately and at seperate times. Each iteration of Tamriel Rebuilt's public release will include the Main ESM file containing our playable content, as well as the optional Alpha ESP containing our unfinished content. As content in the latter becomes playable, it will migrate into our Main ESP. Bundling both files together will help reduce file incompatibilites with users who choose to use both files. It is recommended that if you wish to use the Alpha however, that you do so with something other than your current savegame, as it's strictly for playtesting and experimental purposes only.
Finally, all future builds of Tamriel Rebuilt will be versioned based on the year and month of that update/release. So if an update/release happens on August of this year, the build number would be 14.08 (quite similar to Ubuntu's release scheme). Should hotfixes need to be released for major issues, the specific day will also be fixed to the version number. The names originally intended for our major releases will still be used as codenames to mark major milestones (like the completion of Almalexia or the the Thirr River). Hopefully this numbering scheme will make it much easier to keep track of progress, and ensure one always has the latest version of TR installed.

(KOLD) - Scott Kelly, brother-in-law of Rep. Gabrielle Giffords, spoke about how hard it was to be in space for six months, especially during a horrific time for his family.
He was unable to be with his twin brother, Mark, and his sister-in-law in the wake of the Jan. 8 shootings in Tucson.
"The low was when Gabby was shot," he said. "Shocking, tragic."
He said he tried his best to speak with his brother daily over the satellite phone, but nothing will compare to seeing him face to face at home in Houston.

In the latest NASCAR penalty head-scratcher, the six Nationwide Series teams who were found to have illegally modified their front upper bumper covers at Richmond all escaped without a serious penalty on Tuesday.
NASCAR said the crew chiefs and car chiefs from the three Richard Childress Racing cars – including points leader Elliott Sadler and third-place Austin Dillon – and three Turner Motorsports cars were placed on probation until the end of the season, and the crew chiefs were each fined $10,000.
But NASCAR did not take away any points or issue any suspensions, which is surprising since its actions at Richmond seemed to indicate such penalties were coming.
"We're good with everything," Sadler told SiriusXM's NASCAR channel. "We understand NASCAR's position. ... We're looking forward to moving on to Talladega."
After opening-day inspection at Richmond, NASCAR informed the teams they would have to cut off the front noses of each car and replace them with new ones. The reason? Each of the front upper bumper covers was illegally modified.
Body modifications can help give cars an aerodynamic advantage, which is why Jimmie Johnson's No. 48 team was nailed with a penalty for illegally altering its C-posts prior to the Daytona 500.
In that instance, NASCAR came down hard on Johnson's team: A 25-point penalty for the driver, six-week suspensions for crew chief Chad Knaus and car chief Ron Malec, and a $100,000 fine plus probation for Knaus.
But Johnson's team claimed the car was previously approved by NASCAR, and also said the car fit the templates when presented for multiple inspections throughout last season.
Hendrick Motorsports appealed the penalties to the highest level, where chief appellate officer John Middlebrook shockingly overturned everything but the fine and probation.
Then came last weekend's events at Richmond, where NASCAR was so dissatisfied with the bumper covers of the six Nationwide Series cars in question that it ordered the teams to immediately cut off the noses and replace them with ones that fit the rules.
The primary infraction? "Streamlining of the contours of the car, beyond what is approved by the series director," according to the rulebook.
Sadler, though, had a similar argument to Johnson's. The driver said his RCR car had been through inspection numerous times – including two post-race tear-downs after he won two races with it – and had passed every time.
In addition, Sadler said there were no issues with the templates; NASCAR officials indicated to the team that the car failed an "eye test."
By not issuing a points penalty or suspensions in this instance, perhaps NASCAR feels it does not have a strong enough case to win on appeal after what happened in the Johnson/Knaus situation. And both RCR and Turner would have certainly appealed all the way to Middlebrook after they saw how the No. 48 team had its penalties overturned.
If that's true, then it's possible NASCAR's authority has been weakened by Middlebrook's decision in the Johnson/Knaus case. After all, just look at how officials reacted to a nose problem in the past.
In 2008, Robby Gordon switched to Dodge and was sent the wrong nose by the manufacturer (something Dodge acknowledged). NASCAR, though, crushed Gordon's team with a harsh penalty – it docked him 100 points, suspended his crew chief for six weeks and fined him $100,000.
And just last fall, NASCAR slapped Michael Waltrip Racing and JTG Daugherty Racing teams with four-week crew chief/car chief suspensions, a 25-point penalty and $50,000 fine for using illegal windshields.
Today's penalty announcement was a far cry from any of those precedents.
So by issuing just a $10,000 fine and (meaningless) probation in this case, NASCAR appears to have decided on a very different approach than it has used in the past.

A crop of American cockroaches brings in serious cash.
Police officers in Maumee are now handing out
tickets to kids – but they don't have to pay a fine.
They're tickets to get free ice cream. All the kids
have to do to get one is wear a helmet when they're riding their bike or
"If you wear your helmet while riding your bike or
roller blades, the Maumee cops will pass out coupons for children to get a
dollar cone or a dollar off ice cream," explained Kelly Harriagan, whose son
Ryan received such a coupon.
The program started 17 years ago. The tickets are
helmet safety awards used to encourage kids to ride and roll safely.
"I think they know if the police go by, they're
going to get a coupon and they get to go to Penguin and use it," said Sherry
Kersetter, owner of the Penguin Palace.
Penguin Palace is one of six ice cream parlors
where the coupons are valid. Kersetter says she gets 10-15 tickets a week
throughout the summer.
"They can really be hurt, so it's non-negotiable,
they have to do it," she said. "I'm for anything that encourages them to [wear
a helmet]."
The program is sponsored by Judge Gary Buyers and
others in the Maumee Municipal Court district. They hope it will encourage kids
to ride safe and build a relationship with officers.
"Kids sometimes get an image of us just arresting
people," said Sgt. TJ Stratton. "But now they get to see a little softer side,
and get that ice cream cone from us."

ARDMORE, OK-- Soldiers fighting overseas will be getting a few special packages from Ardmore Middle School.
Through their new Pen Pals Program, students and teachers at Ardmore Middle School are touching lives overseas using paper, pen, and words from the heart
Teachers also have pen pals , when writing to her pal, Ms. Howell is reminded of the days she had to write her son who was once stationed overseas.
"It's easy to become disconnected, I have a son who was in Afghanistan and Iraq, and sometimes you might feel like no body cares or understands what you go through. I think writing to them let's them know we still remember them" says Ms. Howell.
With the new letter writing campaign, Ardmore Middle School students and teachers are learning many valuable lessons outside of the classroom.
Students and teachers at the middle school have made it priority to write their pals overseas every two weeks.

Here is a bit of fun for those of us who remember the band and dance culture of the 50's 60's and 70's. I was looking at the Al Paget Sextet page where they have some advertisements and photographs in particular. Does anyone have links to this band?
Music has always paid a large part of culture in New Zealand. The newspaper's are full of new communities raising funds for needed buildings and equipment by holding dances, musicals and plays. People were ready to sing and play the piano at the drop of a hat. Home entertainment often meant a song around the piano.
It seems as though every town had at least one band, often brass, much needed for parades etc.
Then there were the professional artists which sometimes toured. They must have been brave to come so far.
There was a huge childrens choir conducted by Harold Temple White at Athletic Park for when the Queen visited in 1954. Here is a link to photographs of the event on the 'Village on the Park' website.
Today we have all the music we could want at our fingertips any time of the day or night. It wasn't always so. But the music before music recordings became commonplace was more personal even if it was limited.
