LOUISVILLE, KY (WAVE) - Two people suffered serious injuries Monday when a black Honda traveling at a high rate of speed slammed into a cab in south Louisville minutes after police tried to pull over the Honda, according to a spokesperson for the Louisville Metro Police Department.
The crash happened around 1:24 p.m. at South 7th Street and Oleanda Avenue.
LMPD spokesperson Dwight Mitchell said an officer witnessed the speeding Honda westbound on the Watterson Expressway/Interstate 264.
"The officer attempted to try to pull [the driver] over around the Taylor Boulevard and Watterson Expressway exit," Mitchell said. "That car proceeded, still at a high rate of speed. The officer at that point terminated his pursuit of that vehicle."
Minutes later, Mitchell said, police responded to the accident involving the Honda crashing into an Orange Cab at South 7th Street and Oleanda.
"The guy was ejected that was driving that black car ended up in the passenger side hanging out the back window," said Dina Lane, witness.
Both drivers were rushed to University of Louisville Hospital. Mitchell said the driver of the Honda was in critical condition and that the cab driver suffered non-life-threatening injuries.

text: WICOMICO CO., Md. - The man accused of brutally attacking three women was in court this morning. 20-year-old Myles Lyons appeared before a judge for his preliminary hearing, but the state was granted a continuance. Lyons was captured one month ago after police say he fled from a Salisbury home, leaving behind a gruesome scene. Myles is accused of stabbing and shooting his former pregnant girlfriend, her sister and killing their mother. His hearing was rescheduled pending a potential grand jury indictment.

The Greensburg girls varsity soccer team fell 2-1 to visiting Rising Sun Tuesday in the season opener.
Head coach Mike Myers, though, was not discouraged with what he saw. He noted several positives, including good ball movement and spacing. However, a couple breakdowns in communication and multiple wide and high shots were a key to the loss.
The visitors found the net twice (once in each half) and held the Lady Pirates to one goal on 17 shots. The Lady Shiners made the most of the their nine shots, according to Myers, finding the net twice as "both teams showed good movement and made runs throughout the game."
The Lady Pirates fall to 0-1 and they travel to South Dearborn on Thursday night to open EIAC play.
Sophomore Maddi Hellmich scored the only goal of the game off an assist from freshman Michaela Myers in the 68th minute of the game. Hellmich tallied five shots goal and senior Sydney Wettering led with seven.
Splitting keeper duties were freshman Emma Overmyer with seven saves and junior Cara Zeigler with two.

Whoopie! It's what Ron Heinzman would have said about the annual St. Patrick's festivities yesterday at his old time tavern, Ron's West End Pub.
It was the signature phrase of the iconic Long Branch businessman, community staple and former Middletown resident. And it's that spirit that his friends and family from as far north as the Middletown area and as far south as Atlantic City gather to celebrate for many occasions like St. Pat's.
A friend to all, the man remembered as the guy about town who gave to all good causes always made holidays the most grand of celebrations. And St. Patrick's Day was one of those days that Heinzman, never mind his German heritage, made abundantly festive with tons of good food and décor.
He was known for cooking hundreds of pounds of corned beef on St. Pat's eve and serving it up with a "Whoopie!" and a smile the next day.
For decades, people from all over the state have flocked to the place to get a little taste of Ron's charm, good food and over-the-top décor.
So, when Ron died suddenly on New Year's Day in 2010, his family knew that, as difficult as it was, the St. Pat's show needed to go on. It was, after all, a tradition.
Since then, Ron's sons Randy and Ron Jr. have seen to it that all are well fed and in the St. Pat's mood, as dad would have wanted. While cooking 612 pounds of corned beef this year, in the true spirit of Ron, they added a little crazy humor in the kitchen for good measure (check out the pics).
Ron was known to get a little frustrated in the kitchen now and then. When he'd be feeling a wee bit overwhelmed and annoyed, he had a habit of putting a pot over his head and banging on it with a wooden spoon, yelling "Whoopie!" through the clatter.
Then you'd hear a crash, bang ... and this bald-headed man with crooked glasses perched on the end of his nose would appear. Giggling and feigning a dizzy and disheveled gait, he'd exclaim, "That's it! That's right, folks! God bless America! I've had enough!"
No one ever seemed to have enough of Ron. So, his traditions go on … and they're something to experience.
Take a look at the photos in the above gallery. People swarmed the place. And there were definitely some St. Pat's sights to see. Can you tell us where the Middletowners are?

Nintendo fights back: The Wii U, 3DS, and 2DS systems will do just fine this holiday season
Nintendo's holiday season may not quite be the disaster many were expecting.
We've already discussed the ongoing success of the Pokemon franchise, and the recent release of Pokemon X and Y, along with the budget-priced 2DS, has given Nintendo's portable business a nice shot in the arm. Combine that with an upcoming portable Zelda title along with its own limited edition console and you're likely going to see another spike of portable hardware sales.
Nintendo is walking into the Christmas season with big releases in its most powerful franchises, a brand-new budget-priced portable system, and a variety of new colors and flavors of the 3DS to get people upgrading, buying a second system, or just trading in their old unit for the new shiny.
None of this is as exciting as a brand new platform such as the Xbox One or the PlayStation 4, but I doubt Nintendo cares. Revenue is revenue, and the company has a variety of products that are going to be bringing in a substantial amount of sales.
Onto the Wii U!
The Wii U business may still be struggling, but the recent price drop and Zelda bundle are going to go a long way during December. Packing in a Zelda title is a good move, and the Zelda-flavored paint scheme is sexy as hell.
Nintendo also announced yet another bundle for $299.99 that comes with New Super Mario Brothers U and New Super Luigi U. Packing in a Mario game is also always good business, and now Nintendo will give parents and grandparents two bundles that are priced well and come with Nintendo's biggest names.
Neither of these bundles are going to unseat either of Sony or Microsoft's offerings in terms of raw numbers, but they're going to do well, and right now Nintendo needs to be doing everything it can to get people buying. Price drops and bundles are a great start, and these packages are pleasantly aggressive.
One last thing…
Nintendo is also launching Super Mario 3D World on November 22, and I've had the good fortune to play a variety of levels from Mario's latest, and I'd like you to watch the latest trailer. Pay careful attention to the cats. Maybe watch it twice. Brace yourselves.
Okay, based on everything I've seen and played, this is going to be an amazing game, and it's going to sell to damned near everyone who has a Wii U, or is thinking about picking one up during the holiday rush. Combine that with the remastered Wind Waker and you finally have some big reasons to take the plunge on the hardware, and we're going to see it in system sales.
Don't get me wrong, the Wii U is going to continue to struggle, and none of these games are going to do anything near what we saw during the height of the Wii's power, but Nintendo is going to have a holiday season that, even though it won't be spectacular, is likely to be at least pleasant.
This combination of systems, bundles, games, and pricing is strong, and will likely attract an audience that may not be willing to spend $400 or $500 on the new systems from Sony and Microsoft.
Nintendo isn't going to take the lead anytime soon, but they're going to do alright for themselves in the next few months.

CATEGORIES MoviesMoviefone's Pick of the Week "Zero Dark Thirty" What's It About? Oscar-winning director Kathryn Bigelow documents the recent history we're all too familiar with in this action blockbuster retelling of the manhunt for Osama bin Laden. See It Because: It's an intense and thrilling recreation of events you already know about, but still manages to keep you guessing; and while the film has earned its fair share of controversy, it's worth watching as a snapshot of a very unique time in American history.
Moviefone's Blu-ray Pick of the Week "Badlands" Criterion Collection What's It About? Before he became "that 'Tree of Life' guy" Terrence Malick changed filmmaking forever with his directorial breakthrough starring Martin Sheen and Sissy Spacek as two young lovers who embark on a cross-country killing spree. See It Because: If you know what Blu-ray does for beautiful cinematography and what Criterion does for historical archiving, then this should be a no-brainer.
New on DVD & Blu-ray "Bachelorette" What's It About? Kirsten Dunst, Isla Fisher, Lizzy Caplan, and Rebel Wilson star in a raunchy comedy about jealous bridesmaids that attempted to be a female version of "The Hangover'.... but the main characters are just too mean and selfish to be charming. See It or Skip It: Skip it.
"The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey" What's It About? It doesn't quite pop! like any one installment of the "Lord of the Rings" trilogy, but there's enough rollicking adventure scenes and familiarity with the Tolkien mythology that it's a worthy-enough prequel; the jury is still out on the decision to pad out this one story into three separate films, however. See It or Skip It: See it.

"Rust and Bone" What's It About? Marion Cotillard stars as a whale trainer who loses her legs, following an accident at a marine park. With her life in shambles, she falls into the arms of a nightclub bouncer she met one drunken night. The film is beautifully shot and captures both the grittiness of their physical trauma and the naked truth of their relationship, with a flair that's both raw and stylish See It or Skip It: See it.
"This is 40" What's It About? Judd Apatow's latest semi-autobiographical(?) family comedy starring his real-life wife Leslie Mann and his on-screen alter-ego Paul Rudd has great, strong comedy on par with "Knocked Up" or "The 40-Year-Old Virgin,' but the flaws inherent with his films -- the navel-gazing look at rich L.A. lifestyles, the bloated running time -- are too much to ignore after "Funny People" left a bad taste in peoples' mouths. See It or Skip It: Skip it.

[News Release] NEWS RELEASE for immediate release * June 11, 2003 HIRE AMERICAN CITIZENS! – Coalition Demands Congress Abolish H-1B, L-1 Visas
SAMPLE LETTERS! A new page was added containing sample letters that readers of this site can use as a guide to create their own letters. This page will continue to grow, and it is requested that you send your samples or templates that we can add to this starter list.
The INS estimates that roughly 3.2 million of the estimated eight million illegal immigrants living in the U.S. (or 40 percent), originally entered the country on non-immigrant visas (such as H-1B, L-1, etc.). These 3.2 million non-immigrants have become illegal immigrants by overstaying their visas. Because of its failure to implement an entry-exit system as required by a 1996 law, the INS has no way to identify or locate them. As more H-1Bs and other non-immigrant visa holders lose their jobs in the recession, and remain in the country until they find work, this number will no doubt be significantly higher.
In addition to making a major contribution to illegal immigration, the Non-Immigrant Visa (NIV) program as it now functions has a noticeable impact on the U.S. labor market that is largely unfettered. In 2001, more than 715,000 foreigners were issued NIVs to fill U.S. jobs, and another 110,000 visitors received permission to work here after arriving.
There is no limit on the total number of non-immigrants who can enter the U.S. each year, although some categories are capped. The H-1B visa category for skilled workers, many of whom work in the computer and technology field, is nominally limited by statute. The law caps the number of certain new approvals at 195,000 in 2001, 2002, and 2003. Unless changed by new legislation, it will revert to 65,000 in 2004. However, only between on fourth and one half of the people approved as H-1B workers are actually subject to the cap. Congress excluded those working for educational or non-profit organizations and those extending their stay or changing jobs from being counted against the cap.
States, Federal Government Hire Foreign Workers
State and federal government agencies from coast to coast are hiring foreign workers for good-paying jobs at the expense of American citizens. Despite the availability of tens of thousands of highly-trained recent college graduates and high national unemployment rate pegged by the Labor Department at 8.9 percent for white-collar workers, American governments are using the federal H-1B foreigner-employment program to import foreign workers, shutting out unemployed Americans.

"Despite a grim job outlook for the U.S. high-tech work force, industry has petitioned, and government has granted 799,700 new or renewal H-1B visas in the past two years," IEEE-USA said. "This includes 163,600 new visas in 2001 and 342,000 in exempt categories. And when FY '02 ended, another 18,000 new H-1B applications were pending." By Margaret Quan EE Times, Feb 9, 2003

And some analysts and IT labor experts said those figures, although eye-popping, may not be far-fetched. By Thomas Hoffman, Computerworld, Jan 27, 2003

L1s Slip Past H-1B Curbs
The latest figures released by the Immigration and Naturalization Service show that the number of L1 visas granted climbed from 112,124 in 1995 to 294,658 in 2000. But they still haven't caught up to the H-1B numbers: In 1995, 117,574 H-1B visas were granted, compared with 355,605 in 2000. To IT workers such as Emmons who say they feel they're facing unfair competition from imported workers, statistics mean little. What matters is that they've lost their jobs, they've had to train their replacements and many of those replacements are here on L1 visas. By Lisa Vaas, eWeek, Jan 06, 2003

Gold Prices Slightly Higher as Dollar Strengthens (Update 1)
Updated from 11:54 a.m. EST with settlement prices
NEW YORK (TheStreet) -- Gold prices fluctuated along the flatline Wednesday before a late-session bump higher as the U.S. dollar strengthened on rising worries in Europe.
Gold for April delivery tacked on $5.30 to settle at $1,678.80 an ounce at the Comex division of the New York Mercantile Exchange. The gold price traded as high as $1,680.40 and as low as $1,668.80 an ounce, while the spot price was adding $4, according to Kitco's gold index.
"I think that gold is looking for a bit of a catalyst right now," said Will Rhind, managing director at ETF Securities U.S., in an interview. "I think one positive is that we have pretty low speculative length in the futures market, which would tend to indicate that gold is not overbought by the futures players at this stage."Silver prices for March delivery close effectively unchanged at $31.88 an ounce, while the U.S. dollar index was adding 0.29% to $79.77. The greenback was strengthening Wednesday against the euro to $1.3514, which was below the prior day's close at $1.3582. Part of the dollar's rise was due to fears re-emerging from troubled eurozone countries like Spain and Italy. Spain's opposition Socialist Party pressed Prime Minister Mariano Rajoy to step down earlier this week on allegations of corruption. Additionally, former Italian Prime Minister Silvio Berlusconi's challenge to rise to his old post has continued to rattle European markets. Investors are concerned about what a Berlusconi-led Italy may mean to the country's commitment to serious economic reforms with the European Central Bank. "There's increasing concern that there might be worries developing again in Europe, as seen in the bond of Italy, Spain, Ireland, etc.," said Sam Stovall, chief equity strategist at S&P Capital IQ. "Those [woes] just remind us that when you have debt-to-GDP that's 100% or higher, that it's a problem that's not going to go away anytime soon, and despite the assurances from the ECB it is still likely to be a multi-year uphill battle." Platinum prices continued to surge past the yellow metal on Wednesday. Platinum for April delivery popped $29.30 to close at $1,736.50 an ounce as supply constraints continued to push the white metal higher.

Graphics Chipsets: Intel Releases Documentation
Chip giant Intel has released comprehensive documentation on its 965 Express and G35 Express chipsets.
Last year, Intel and developers from the X.org and Mesa projects joined forces to program an Open Source driver for the Intel 965GM Express graphics platform. Now, Intel has released critical documentation for developers. The PDFs comprise some 1600 pages of documentation. The Linux Graphics Drivers from Intel page set up by Intel serves as a central repository on the Web where users can access driver and chipset downloads. The documentation was released under a Creative Commons License (Attribution-No Derivative Works 3.0 United States).
Developer Greg Kroah-Hartman who is renowned for his commitment to Linux drivers congratulated Intel on this step. As the initiator of the Linux Driver Project, he is well aware of the issues that driver developers can face, lacking documentation. Hartman is offering hardware manufacturers the option of programming Linux drivers for free, if the manufacturer is prepared to contribute input in the form of test hardware and documentation.

Video leads to Kate Upton attending California teen's prom?

Social media is a powerful tool.
Some use it to keep up with friends, some use it to network, but one California teen may have used it to make him the envy of millions of men.
In a YouTube video, Jake Davidson asks Sports Illustrated cover girl Kate Upton to go to prom with him. While Upton likely gets hundreds of requests a day, this one caught her eye.
"@jakedavidson23:youtube.com/watch?v=NvxqUE " you can call me Katie if you want! How could I turn down that video! I'll check my schedule ;)— Kate Upton (@KateUpton) March 19, 2013
Congratulations, Mr. Davidson. If this works, and Upton's schedule is open, you will have hit the peak of your life at 17.
We're not jealous. OK, maybe a little.
Or a lot.

Stoner Dominates 2011 Red Bull Indianapolis GP
Sunday, August 28, 2011

Casey Stoner wins the 2011 Red Bull Indianapolis GP
Casey Stoner completed his domination of the Red Bull Indianapolis GP on Sunday, running away from Repsol Honda teammate Dani Pedrosa to win the fourth annual MotoGP race at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway.
Stoner, from Australia, beat Pedrosa to the finish by 4.828 seconds. It was his seventh victory of the season and first at IMS. His previous best finish at the Brickyard was fourth in 2008.
"For the race, we knew we had a good setup," Stoner said. "We knew we had the pace. I struggled a little bit the first few laps, but once we got going, we managed to get the lap times we sort of thought we could get to.
"It was a lot of hard work out front, trying to stay consistent, trying not to make mistakes and trying not to run wide onto that greasy part of the track. Very happy to win here at the Brickyard."
American Ben Spies finished third on a Yamaha Factory Racing machine.
Stoner, who started from pole, dropped to third on the first lap. But he passed reigning World Champion Jorge Lorenzo for second on Lap 2 and then passed Pedrosa for the lead on Lap 7 of the 28-lap race with an inside pass in Turn 1.
Spies started second but dropped to ninth on the first lap. But he methodically picked off rivals over the ensuing laps to record his second consecutive podium finish at IMS. He placed second last year.
"We didn't make the greatest start," Spies said. "It felt like an OK start, but it just didn't add up when we got out of Turn 1. And then me and (Andrea Dovizioso) made some contact in Turn 4, and that was our race. But it was at least pretty interesting."
It was a mixed day for the other two American riders in the field. Colin Edwards placed seventh on a Monster Yamaha Tech 3. Nicky Hayden finished a disappointing 14th on his Ducati after racing as high as fourth on the first lap.
Hayden was the only rider to select a medium compound Bridgestone front tire in a gamble to gain more grip. But it backfired, as the hard tire selected by other riders proved more durable.
In the other World Championship classes, Marc Marquez and Nico Terol won from pole in the Moto2 and 125cc classes, respectively. Chris Fillmore won the second AMA Pro Vance & Hines XR1200 race of the weekend.

This School Parcel Tax is Ruining Lives!!!
Original post made by Buford on May 5, 2009
This community needs the brilliant minds of Steve Brozosky, Kay Ayala, and Joe the Plumber to stand up to taxes and hybrid cars. These heroes don't let sissy liberal facts (facts have liberal bias) get in the way of their gut level hatred to any and all taxes. Who can forget the bible passage in Leviticus 19:18 that states "Jesus hates commie pinko hippie parcel taxes." There ain't nothing more beautiful than watching public school funding get cut and hippie teachers getting put in their place. The way things are going, the Pleasanton District will come for our land, our bibles, and my time tested Texas values. Jesus help us all!

They teach that man came from apes in those schools in these so called schools. That is the theory of evolution.
Then they say everything is just relative, so you can just do what ever you want. That is the theory of relativity.

Related Stories
Following are whispers we've been hearing from around the league:
• While it appears TE David Thomas will get an opportunity to gauge his value on the open market as an unrestricted free agent, we hear he's very much a part of the Saints' plan and they intend to re-sign him. Word is Thomas would prefer to stay with the team. The Saints tendered Thomas, who is entering his sixth season, before the lockout when it was unclear who would qualify for unrestricted free agency, but that tender will be rescinded if the league allows players with four accrued seasons to become UFAs. He would be the No. 2 tight end behind Jimmy Graham and is a solid utility player that can also function as a fullback.
• The new free-agency rules could benefit the Dolphins, who have not been shy about their quest to add a veteran running back to complement rookie Daniel Thomas. DeAngelo Williams and Ahmad Bradshaw would be the top free-agent running backs. Williams isn't the receiving option that Bradshaw is, but is more likely to be available and already has shown interest in coming to Miami. Darren Sproles also would be an option as a scatback.
• There's a chance that the Buccaneers will consider re-signing DE Stylez G. White, but a source said it's something they only would do if they were unable to re-sign the defensive end they would rather keep, Tim Crowder. It's expected that both players will be unrestricted when free agency begins. The Bucs added two rookie defensive ends with their first two picks in the draft, but they would like to have some veteran leadership at the position, and White, who has been criticized by head coach Raheem Morris for his practice habits, might not set the example the Bucs want for rookie DEs Adrian Clayborn and Da'Quan Bowers.
• Because of their limited depth on the defensive line and head coach John Fox's preference for a fast, athletic defense, we hear the Broncos could move LB Mario Haggan to the defensive line. Doing so would give the team more options to be creative with its defensive packages and also allow rookie LBs Mike Mohamed and Nate Irving to see more playing time.
• With free agency expected to include players who have four accrued years, the Bills' top priority is re-signing ILB Paul Posluszny. We hear that the Bills want to keep Posluszny, who in addition to being the team's top tackler is a leader in the locker room. He might not be a big-play maker, but he fits well inside in the team's 3-4 scheme. One daily observer believes a blue-collar city like Buffalo fits Posluszny well and doesn't think he will leave.
• In addition to organizing and hosting 'Jets West' camp, QB Mark Sanchez helped orchestrate player-organized workouts in New Jersey. "It was a chance for him to take total control," WR-KR Brad Smith told PFW. "In my opinion (Sanchez) did an incredible job. He gained a lot of respect for getting everybody together, having the playbook ready and breaking down film."
• All 15 players selected in Jaguars GM Gene Smith's first two drafts as the lead decision maker are still with the club. An impressive feat, but we hear that could change this summer if WR Tiquan Underwood does not take the next step and prove that his impressive showings in practice and training camp can translate on Sundays. Although the Jaguars' receiving corps is relatively unproven beyond Mike Thomas, a number of wideouts, including Jason Hill, Jarett Dillard, Kassim Osgood and rookie Cecil Shorts III, all could enter training camp with a leg up on Underwood.
• The Kenny Britt saga took another bizarre turn, when status updates on Britt's Facebook page included threats to retire from the NFL, an obscenity directed at commissioner Roger Goodell and a recanting of the previous remarks. Britt claims he did not write the comments, instead saying his Facebook account was hacked into. Just another in the long line of poor decisions by Britt, the way we hear it. One source in Nashville said that Britt has a long way to go toward repairing his image and the broken trust with his teammates after a tumultuous offseason and first two-plus years in the league. The same source said there is no guarantee that rookie head coach Mike Munchak will discipline his young wideout, however, as Britt has yet to be convicted of anything and has the built-in excuse of not having contact with team or league officials when several of his run-ins with the law have occurred this offseason.
• Steelers C-OG Doug Legursky told PFW he's working out five days a week in the offseason as he tries to stay in shape. Legursky believes he recognizes opponent tendencies well and has good strength but wants to improve his pass-blocking technique.
• Andy Buh has a unique perspective on 49ers rookie QB Colin Kaepernick and Stanford passer Andrew Luck, the top QB prospect in college football and a potential No. 1 overall pick. Buh was Stanford's co-defensive coordinator in 2009, Luck's first season as a starter, before becoming Nevada's defensive coordinator and LBs coach. Buh marveled at Kaepernick's mobility, noting that "he can do all of (the) same things (as Luck) but gain you more than 90 yards per game" on the ground. Intangibles set Luck and Kaepernick apart, Buh said. "Andrew and Colin are both better people than they are quarterbacks, which makes them who they are and why they're having so much success," he said. "They're leaders first and then good quarterbacks second."
• News that the franchise tag likely will be part of the new CBA is good news for the Chargers, but bad for WR Vincent Jackson. The big-play machine has been frustrated with not getting a long-term deal and was unhappy he was given the tag before the lockout began. Unless a team is willing to deal two first-round picks to the Chargers for Jackson, the former Pro Bowler will be hauling in passes from Philip Rivers for one more year.
• Jacoby Ford made an impact for the Raiders last season as a rookie mainly as a kickoff returner, but he will be a a huge part of the team's passing game in his second year. Head coach Hue Jackson recently said that Ford "is going to become a household name, because he has some very special ability." Going into the campaign without a true No. 1 wideout, it wouldn't be a shock for Ford to grab that position.
• Our Cardinals insiders believe the intriguing rumor that the team might trade CB Dominique Rodgers-Cromartie straight-up to the Eagles in exchange for Kevin Kolb — instead of relinquishing draft picks in a potential deal for the Eagles' QB — is probably more a case of good old-fashioned dot-connecting than anything else. While the Cardinals are no doubt in dire need of a new quarterback, and the Eagles really could use a quality cornerback, we hear the Cardinals really feel positive about a starting CB tandem of "DRC" and first-round draft pick Patrick Peterson, with 2010 starting RCB Greg Toler also looking like a good fit as the team's third corner. There are sources in the desert who believe the aversion to contact that Rodgers-Cromartie so frequently displayed last season might not sit well with new defensive coordinator Ray Horton, but the 10 pounds that "DRC" has added to his slender frame is viewed mostly as a positive sign.
• On the Arizona free-agent front, we hear it's a lot more likely the Cardinals will re-sign NT Gabe Watson than Alan Branch to back up 2010 first-rounder Dan Williams. Then again, since the nose tackle plays only 40 percent of the time in the Cardinals' defensive scheme, it's quite possible both Watson and Branch could be moving on.
• The word out of San Francisco is that veteran David Carr, who played under new Niners offensive coordinator Greg Roman in Houston, is a better bet to be the primary backup to QB Alex Smith this season than second-rounder Colin Kaepernick. While new head coach Jim Harbaugh reportedly couldn't be more excited about Kaepernick's potential, word is the abbreviated offseason training situation gives Carr a distinct edge, at least initially, in handling an offense that we hear is more than a little complex.
• After ballooning up into the low 230s not long after the Packers' Super Bowl victory, we hear QB Aaron Rodgers has lost about 10-12 pounds after making a conscious effort to eat better. Rodgers will be joining teammates A.J. Hawk and Mason Crosby in the American Century Championship celebrity golf invitational July 12-17 in Stateline, Nev., which will be televised on NBC and Versus.

Recent Report Shows RFS Does not Increase Food Prices
A recent study released by ABF Economics found no direct correlation between federal biofuels mandates and increasing food prices. National Farmers Union President Roger Johnson says the report is an example of yet another study that confirms biofuels are not the main driver of food prices. Instead - expanding global demand, speculation in commodity markets and particularly high oil prices are the primary drivers of increased food costs. According to the study - food price inflation has increased at a slower rate since 2007 - the year the Renewable Fuel Standard was last revised. The study also notes that raw commodities represent a small percentage of the final price of food - with energy, food processing and other outside costs steering food price increases.
Johnson notes that according to USDA's Economic Research Service - farmers and ranchers receive just 15.8-cents of every food dollar spent by consumers outside the home in the U.S. More than 80-cents of every food dollar is spent on marketing, processing, wholesaling, distribution and retailing. Johnson says food manufacturers who have long derided the value of renewable fuels should take heed of these findings and seriously reconsider their stance on the RFS.

September 19
There is a Ridge of High Pressure over much of the Eastern half of the nation (In the wake of a cold front). A Low Pressure System North of the Midwest has a cold front that is stretched into the plains.

Clear conditions coupled with cooler temperatures and a light and variable wind will accompany a dry air mass. All of these variables combined will bring a very pleasant forecast for our area. With the exception of a warming trend after Thursday, there will not be much of a day to day change until the weekend. At that time, we will see more cloud cover move into the area with skies becoming partly cloudy. However tonight, expect clear skies and lows dropping into a chilly range.
For the rest of the day
Expect plenty of sunshine, very little humidity and a wind that will become breezy at times. Highs will climb to around 80 and it will feel very nice, outside. Overnight lows will dip into the lower 50's with a clear sky and a Light & Variable wind.
For the rest of the 7day planner
In the wake of this cold front, High Pressure will influence our weather through the later part of the work week. That means clear skies, low rain chances and chilly overnight lows. Rain chances will slowly return this weekend with a slight chance in the afternoon (Saturday & Sunday).

Hello Dinesh,
Except for Live and Stay, all of your pairs are different tenses of the same verb.
I know this today, I knew that yesterday.
I gave her earrings as a gift , not knowing that you had given her the same thing.
I went to the store at three. By the time I got home, Peter had gone to the gym.
Have you used a dictionary for "Live" and "Stay"? Can you show a sentence in which you're not sure which one to use?

Charming Farmhouse Lovingly Renovated, Quiet Country Setting
We stayed for a week in March at the Farmhouse at Chateau Jonquay. The owner was very pleasant and professional in making the arrangements. The house is not really far from the highway, but because it is located on a very small road and surrounded by fields, it feels wonderfully remote and peaceful. The restoration was done with a very authentic feel. The brick and wood plank flooring are just beautiful! If you truly appreciate historical old homes, you will be glad you stayed here. Don't forget to take a peek at the birds nesting in the eaves...there is an ingenious little mirror rigged up so you can see the nest, and there were birds nesting while we were there. I would definitely recommend this location and would stay there again if we are vacationing in the area!

A Beginner's Guide to Hair Color
Learn the Lingo
Having a bit of that "first time" anxiety? The truth is, having your hair colored for the first time can be nerve-racking. With so many options and variations, how can you end up with the look you want? The key is to communicate with your colorist before he starts mixing the color. Explain -- or show him a photo of -- the look you're after so he can outline the options for getting there. To make sure the two of you are speaking the same language, it helps to know the lingo. Here, a primer:
Semi-Permanent Semi-permanent color, which contains no ammonia and only a small percentage of peroxide, can only darken hair. Over time, the color fades to a translucent stain, but the roots need to be maintained to avoid a mismatched look. Semi-permanent is the least-damaging hair color process.
Demi-Permanent This type of color is very good for covering gray; it can only darken hair, not lighten it. Roots need to be touched up every 4 to 6 weeks. The formulation contains peroxide, but no ammonia.
Permanent Color Permanent hair color, which consists of both peroxide and ammonia, can make hair darker or a few shades lighter, and provides excellent coverage for gray. The color lasts until hair grows out, and roots need to be touched up every 4 to 6 weeks.
Glossing/Glazing This process involves placing semi-permanent color on the hair for a short period of time to darken hair slightly or to change its tonality (for example, changing an ash blonde to golden brown). Clear glossing/glazing is also available to add shine to hair without altering the color. Gloss or glaze needs to be reapplied every few weeks.

It's not often that you hear of a rigorous dress code these days, but British racing's most prestigious event, Royal Ascot, still adheres by a code of dress that harkens back to a more genteel time. If you are lucky enough to be within the Royal Enclosure, you will be mingling amidst an elite international crowd, ranging from royalty and aristocrats to celebs and socialites. In other words, this is not a t-shirt and cutoffs affair and the Royal Ascot staff is serious about guests adhering to their strict standard of attire.
With an updated dress code for 2013, top hats are de rigueur for men while ladies must wear hats with at least a four-inch base—fascinators don't count. Dresses must be modest in both length and straps, with a hemline brushing the knees and straps that are at least one inch in width. In anticipation of the event, Ascot Racecourse released a video of gorgeous models sporting proper attire for the event.
Think Kate Middleton, not Paris Hilton, and you're on the right track. Timeless elegance is key to Royal Ascot's fashion scene and for an event with such history, Royal Ascot's attendees carry on the tradition of refined poise and grace.

For the Royal Enclosure, gents are required to wear black or grey morning dress, which must include a waistcoat and tie and a black or grey top hat and black shoes. The Royal Enclosure is also where the "no fascinator" rule applies for ladies. If you're in the grandstand, the rules are loosened slightly, but an old-school formality still reigns supreme.
Photo courtesy of Ascot Racecourse
Charles Barnett, chief executive at Ascot Racecourse, says: "A day out at Royal Ascot is a very special and memorable experience, of which attire plays a huge part. We were incredibly impressed with how everyone really got into the spirit of the occasion last year."
To help attendees adhere to the guidelines, Ascot had a team of twenty dress code assistants on hand to help visitors with last minute issues with attire.

And of course, who doesn't love the Queen? Her choice of a subdued blush colored suit worked perfectly in combination with her elegant hat.

After navigating the dress requirements, guests are royally rewarded with a first-rate event, including lavish amounts of Champagne, Pimm's, lobster, and macaroons. According to Ascot Racecourse, the 2012 Royal Ascot included the consumption of:
- 51,549 bottles of Champagne
- 44,524 glasses of Pimm's
- 50,000 pistachio and raspberry macaroons
- 2,050 fresh lobsters
- 35,000 local spears of asparagus
- 3,300 punnets of strawberries

Who doesn't love a good party? Despite a penchant for archaic formalities and top hats, the Brits still know how to have a good time.
