Sam and the hyperkinetic rabbity thing known as Max have taken a break from their fizzball marathon and are on the case once again! Team up with the self-styled Freelance Police as you dispense your own unique brand of criminal justice. Uncover clues, interrogate suspects, crack six bizarre cases, and find out why Sam & Max is the funniest game around.
In this first season of Sam & Max, you'll meet crazy characters who are sure to leave an impression. Whether you're trading quips with a low-life like Jimmy Two-Teeth, swapping metaphysics with the inordinately cheerful founder of Prismatology Hugh Bliss, dropping by Bosco's Inconvenience to pick up the latest in conspiracy theories and some Truth Serum (if you can afford it), you'll find the trademark Sam & Max humor in every conversation. While you're playing, be sure to say hello to Sybil, who changes jobs at the drop of a hat, and run an election campaign against Honest Abe himself.
Enjoy the malfeasance (Max's second-favorite kind of feasance!) and the mayhem when you hit the road with Sam & Max Save the World today!

This series is definitely enjoyable. Great humor compensates for uneven writing. As for rehashing of locations and characters, it is a double-edged sword. On the one hand it is fun to see how the locations change over time, on the other it might annoy some players.
The difficulty of the puzzles is nowhere near that of the original, and experienced adventurers will probably blowread more through the first episodes (at least), even though the difficulty mounts a bit later on. Most puzzles are fairly original (it avoids triggering my "What, I'm supposed to contruct a fishing rod AGAIN??" syndrome) and the puzzles always follow the same in-game logic, so you will not encounter random-seeming puzzles or puzzles that break the flow of the game. The puzzles and the humor are intertwined well. This partly makes up for the lack of difficulty in my eyes.
This game is primarily meant to entertain, and it does that very well. So well, that the first episodes roughly can be completed in the same time you'd watch a movie (90mins-2 hours), provided you don't get stuck, later episodes take a bit more time.
All in all, the low difficulty level combined with the humor makes this series a great choice for people who never really got into adventures and people who just want to have an enjoyable evening in front of the pc.
I'm not sure if you should buy this just because of nostalgia, the humor is the same as the original, but the puzzle part is not. If you're looking for truly demanding puzzles, you should look elsewhere.

Here's a review from a die-hard Sam & Max fan: the game isn't perfect, but what in this world is?
Pros: Great writing, great voice acting, good music, often hilarious scenes and characters, manageable interface, classic adventure gaming fun in the LucasArts style.
Cons: Environments and characters get re-used a lot in early episodes, the first two antagonists are prettyread more annoying, and the writing isn't always at its laugh-a-minute highs.
I still heartily recommend this to anyone who has liked Sam & Max or LucasArts adventure games, especially if you can find the whole season for $20 or less. I bought the DVD at full price ($39) when it was new, and felt a little shortchanged. I'd say these episodes are worth $4 a pop easy, though.

Sam and Max Save the World is hilarious. That's pretty much all you need to know. The humour alone makes this game worth it. The storyline is wacky, but entertaining. The characters are funny and voiced excellently. Overall, this is my favourite Sam and Max season.
It takes a couple of episodes to get into the swing of things, but it just gets better and better with each episoderead more until you get to the amazing, side-splitting Episode 4: Abe Lincoln Must Die! And the quality of the final two episodes is just as good.
If you like adventure games, buy this game now. If you like humour, buy this game now. If you like both? You're going to love this game!

Tune in to your system with these popular diagnostic tools
Stat Pack
To check on the health of a Linux system, administrators can turn to vmstat, iostat, netstat, and ifstat. Or, you can just use the versatile dstat, which combines the features of several tools in a single package.
System administrators typically use multiple tools to monitor the resource load on a Linux system. But for some powerful, high-end monitoring applications, the overhead can be quite high, especially if you need to troubleshoot bottlenecks. Some tools need to run over an extended period of time, and, of course, these tools use resources themselves. This article introduces vmstat, iostat, netstat, and ifstat, four simple programs that fit well into any administrator's toolbox. You'll also learn about the multi-purpose dstat tool, which combines many functions of the other tools into a single utility.

Last July (2006), Israel invaded Lebanon, the fifth invasion since 1978. As before, U.S. support for the aggression was a critical factor, the pretexts quickly collapse on inspection, and the consequences for the people of Lebanon are severe. Among the reasons for the U.S.-Israel invasion is that Hezbollah's rockets could be a deterrent to a potential U.S.-Israeli attack on Iran.
Despite the saber-rattling, it is, I suspect, unlikely that the Bush administration will attack Iran. The world is strongly opposed. Seventy-five percent of Americans favor diplomacy over military threats against Iran, and as noted earlier, Americans and Iranians largely agree on nuclear issues. Polls by Terror Free Tomorrow reveal that "Despite a deep historical enmity between Iran's Persian Shiite population and the predominantly Sunni population of its ethnically diverse Arab, Turkish and Pakistani neighbors, the largest percentage of people in these countries favor accepting a nuclear-armed Iran over any American military action." It appears that the U.S. military and intelligence community is also opposed to an attack.
Iran cannot defend itself against U.S. attack, but it can respond in other ways, among them by inciting even more havoc in Iraq. Some issue warnings that are far more grave, among them by the respected British military historian Corelli Barnett, who writes that "an attack on Iran would effectively launch World War III."
The Bush administration has left disasters almost everywhere it has turned, from post-Katrina New Orleans to Iraq. In desperation to salvage something, the administration might undertake the risk of even greater disasters.
Meanwhile Washington may be seeking to destabilize Iran from within.2 The ethnic mix in Iran is complex; much of the population isn't Persian. There are secessionist tendencies and it is likely that Washington is trying to stir them up—in Khuzestan on the Gulf, for example, where Iran's oil is concentrated, a region that is largely Arab, not Persian.
Threat escalation also serves to pressure others to join U.S. efforts to strangle Iran economically, with predictable success in Europe. Another predictable consequence, presumably intended, is to induce the Iranian leadership to be as harsh and repressive as possible, fomenting disorder and perhaps resistance while undermining efforts of courageous Iranian reformers, who are bitterly protesting Washington's tactics. It is also necessary to demonize the leadership. In the West, any wild statement of Iran's president, Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, immediately gets circulated in headlines, dubiously translated. But as is well known, Ahmadinejad has no control over foreign policy, which is in the hands of his superior, the Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei.
The U.S. media tend to ignore Khamenei's statements, especially if they are conciliatory. For example, it's widely reported when Ahmadinejad says that Israel shouldn't exist—but there is silence when Khamenei says that Iran "shares a common view with Arab countries on the most important Islamic-Arabic issue, namely the issue of Palestine," which would appear to mean that Iran accepts the Arab League position: full normalization of relations with Israel in terms of the international consensus on a two-state settlement that the U.S. and Israel continue to resist, almost alone.3
The U.S. invasion of Iraq virtually instructed Iran to develop a nuclear deterrent. Israeli military historian Martin van Creveld writes that after the U.S. invasion of Iraq, "had the Iranians not tried to build nuclear weapons, they would be crazy." The message of the invasion, loud and clear, was that the U.S. will attack at will, as long as the target is defenseless. Now Iran is ringed by U.S. military forces in Afghanistan, Iraq, Turkey and the Persian Gulf and close by are nuclear-armed Pakistan and particularly Israel, the regional superpower, thanks to U.S. support.
As already discussed, Iranian efforts to negotiate outstanding issues were rebuffed by Washington, and an EU-Iranian agreement was apparently undermined by Washington's refusal to withdraw threats of attack. A genuine interest in preventing the development of nuclear weapons in Iran—and the escalating warlike tension in the region—would lead Washington to implement the EU bargain, agree to meaningful negotiations and join with others to move toward integrating Iran into the international economic system, in accord with public opinion in the United States, Iran, neighboring states, and virtually the entire rest of the world.

The adoptive parents of Baby Veronica are in Oklahoma, planning to take their daughter back home to South Carolina.
The couple held a news conference at a downtown Tulsa hotel Wednesday morning.
Following the news conference, Oklahoma Gov. Mary Fallin issued the following statement:
"Mr. and Mrs. Capobianco deserve an opportunity to meet with their adopted daughter. They also deserve the chance to meet with Mr. Brown and put an end to this conflict. It is important for Veronica's sake that Mr. Brown and the Capobianco family resolve this matter quickly and grant closure to all parties. If Mr. Brown is unwilling to cooperate with these reasonable expectations, then I will be forced to expedite his extradition request and let the issue be settled in court."
Below is the statement from Cherokee Nation Principal Chief Bill John Baker:
Around noon, Clark Brewster, attorney for Dusten Brown, released this statement:
"We are in agreement with the Capobiancos that the best interest of Veronica is the most important consideration. The South Carolina court's determination of this issue was based upon facts as they existed almost two years ago. We are fully in favor of a present day determination of Veronica's best interest to be made by a court in the state where Veronica has lived for the past 19 months.
We will reach out to counsel for the Capobiancos to see if a resolution in Veronica's best interest can be reached by the parties. In that way, we hope the present impasse can be quickly resolved."
Jessica Munday, who said she is a family friend of Matt and Melanie Capobianco, spoke first during the news conference, explaining her role in the matter.
After Munday, Troy Dunn, an Oklahoma native who helps facilitate family reunions, spoke about the Indian Child Welfare Act (ICWA), and his personal battle against the law.
"In 1983, my parents adopted a newborn baby in Oklahoma. That baby is my brother and we are best friends. By the way, my brother is Native American," Dunn said.
Dunn said his goal is to bring some level of closure to two families who "both love the same little girl."
He said he believes all conversations by both families in the past have been unproductive.
"All conversations should be focused on building a path forward," Dunn said.
Dunn said he would like to meet with Dusten Brown, Veronica's biological father, without lawyers present and as early as today.
"We are determined to bring our daughter home, but know we don't seek victory. There is none in this type of situation," said Melanie Capobianco, as she took the podium following Dunn.
Melanie said the couple requested a visit with their daughter as soon as they arrived in Oklahoma, but the request was denied.
"As a mother, my heart broke when that request was denied and we were told our visit was not in her best interest," she said.
Matt Capobianco took the podium after his wife, saying they plan to take Veronica home to South Carolina.
"If it takes another week, another month, another decade, we're not going anywhere. But of course, we believe what's best for Veronica is a resolution now," said Matt Capobianco.
Veronica is reportedly with her paternal grandparents. The location is unknown at this time.
There were many Dusten Brown supporters outside the press conference. They carried signs and many shouted, "Keep Veronica in Oklahoma!" One of the supporters said she is a friend of Brown's and has gone to stomp dances with the little girl.
"She's very happy and very well loved," said Traci DeWitt.
Brown posted bond Monday for a "custodial interference" charge after he missed a meeting in South Carolina. He had been at National Guard training out-of-state.
Tulsa's Channel 8 will have much more on this developing story in later newscasts.

Master ballet teacher succumbs
Nov 6, 2012
By Molly Walker
Of the News-Register
Master ballet teacher Lynn Marchant Seth, who taught thousands of dancers and produced an annual performance of "The Nutcracker" in McMinnville, died Sunday, Oct. 28 in her early 70s.
At her request, a free memorial dance performance at the Doug Anderson Auditorium at McMinnville High School will be held in place of a traditional service. It will be at 4:30 p.m. Sunday, Dec. 16.
Marchant was teaching ballet at Linfield College when she first put a group together for "The Nutcracker" performance in 1971. The 40th season was marked in 2010.
In 1972, Marchant opened the Marchant Academy of Ballet at the old First Federal building at the northwest corner of Third and Evans streets. Over the years, the school occupied several different downtown buildings, including the 1893 building and the Odd Fellows Building.
It moved north to Bunn's Village for 11 years. It returned downtown, moving to its current location at 608 N.E. Third St., in 2004.
The building had been the home of the Taylor-Dale Hardware store.
At the time, Marchant said, "I've had my eye on this building for years and years." In fact, she first saw it in a photo when she was living in San Bernardino, Calif., in 1967.
By age 7, Marchant decided she wanted to be a teacher, working with neighborhood children with costumes made out of crepe paper and dance shoes that were leather tumbling slippers.
Andrei Tremaine and Bronislava Nijinska were Marchant's primary teachers. In a spotlight on the arts interview in 2004, she said her favorite touring companies were the American Ballet Theatre and the San Francisco Ballet.
With her decades of teaching, Marchant taught grandchildren of former students. Teaching all levels of ballet, there was some instances where she was teaching all three generations at the same time.
Marchant's daughter, Emma Seth, now operates the academy.
Marchant was born in 1940 in Los Angeles. She went on to study nursing at Stanford University.
In addition to her focus on dance, she also served as a nurse for several years at McMinnville Hospital.
She first came to McMinnville to help her mother on her small farm in Amity, thinking at that time it meant the end of her dance career.
She is survived by her husband, Philip Seth; her children, Kimberley Eve, Don Guttery, Matthew Burnett and Emma Seth; her brother, Spencer; her sister, Toni; her first husband, O. Don Guttery; and numerous grandchildren.
She was preceded in death by her second husband, Beaumont Burnett.

Huskers announce wrestling schedule
The Nebraska wrestling team announced a challenging schedule for the 2012-13 season on Wednesday, which includes a trip to Madison Square Garden as well as matches against the top three NCAA finishers from 2012.
The Huskers open their season on Nov. 4 at the Warren Williamson/Daktronics Open in Brookings, S.D. Last season Nebraska sent 13 wrestlers to the tournament, which was hosted by South Dakota State. All-American James Green led the Huskers, winning the tournament at 157 pounds.
The first dual of the season is against Northern Colorado in Greeley, Colo., on Nov. 10. It is the first of two non-conference road duals as the next night the Huskers face Wyoming in Laramie, Wyo.
The Huskers' first conference home dual of the season is on the night of Nov. 16, as they will host 2012 NCAA runner-up Minnesota at the NU Coliseum at 7 p.m. Two days later, Nebraska hosts a pair of afternoon non-conference duals against North Carolina and South Dakota State. The Huskers hold a 10-1 advantage over the Tar Heels in the all-time series.
Nebraska heads to Las Vegas, Nev., Nov. 30-Dec. 1, for the Cliff Keen Invitational. Last season the Huskers finished fourth with 106 points. NU then returns home for a pair of duals against Arizona State (Dec. 8) and Wisconsin (Dec. 9). In 2011-12, the Huskers shut out both opponents by a combined score of 78-0.
On Dec. 16, the Huskers are set to compete in the first Grapple at the Garden in New York, N.Y. NU faces Maryland at 9:30 a.m., before wrestling Rutgers at 11:30 a.m. Other teams participating in the Grapple at the Garden include Ohio State, Oklahoma State, Iowa, Hofstra, Chattanooga and Bucknell. To close out 2012, the Huskers compete at the Midlands Invitational in Evanston, Ill., Dec. 29-30.
January begins with two road Big Ten duals against Michigan and Northwestern. The Huskers head to Ann Arbor, Mich., on Jan. 11 before a trip to Evanston, Ill., on Jan. 13. Nebraska returns home to face Illinois on Jan. 18. The Fighting Illini finished seventh at the 2012 NCAA Championships. Nebraska then heads to University Park, Pa., for a showdown against defending national champion Penn State on Jan. 27.
On Feb. 1, the Huskers host Michigan State at the NU Coliseum. Last season the Big Red crushed the Spartans 27-8 in East Lansing, Mich. The final Big Ten dual of the 2012-13 campaign comes Feb. 10 against Iowa, which finished third at the 2012 NCAA Championships. The Huskers will compete at the NWCA National Duals in Ithaca, N.Y., on Feb. 17. Their opponents are to be determined.
On March 9-10, Nebraska will make its second appearance in the Big Ten Championships in Champaign, Ill. Last season the Huskers produced four top-five finishers. The 2012-13 season concludes March 21-23 at the NCAA Championships in Des Moines, Iowa. Last year Nebraska finished 21st with 28 points. Freshman James Green (157) and junior Josh Ihnen (184) earned All-America honors, as eight Huskers qualified for the 2012 NCAA Championships.
Prior to the regular season, on Nov. 2 Nebraska will hold its annual Red-Black Intersquad meet at the Bob Devaney Sports Center.

21st century rail - at last 06.08.09
Morning Star Editorial: When Michael O'Leary tells you an idea's dreadful, you know you're on to a winner. The union-bashing Ryanair chief is so consistently on the wrong side of any argument that you'd be forgiven for taking it with a pinch of salt if he told you to keep breathing.
So his verdict that building a new high-speed British rail network would be "insane" is decent evidence that the government's on to something.
As indeed it is. It's long past time Britain dragged its rail network into the late 20th century, let alone the 21st. The country which was the birthplace of the railways is now put to shame by the likes of Japan, France and Germany, which all invested heavily in their networks while Britain's was being Beechinged and then privatised to death.
Spain too has come from nowhere to overtake Britain with new high-speed lines boasting 99 per cent punctuality for trains whizzing at over 180mph on a network which will eventually be the biggest in Europe.
Its new trains have more or less replaced planes between Madrid and Seville and are set to do the same from Madrid to Barcelona.
That's exactly what Transport Secretary Lord Adonis wants to happen here. It's "manifestly in the public interest" to get passengers out of planes and into trains, he says.
And quite right too. To borrow O'Leary's choice of word, it's insane that 46 million passengers travel by air every year within a country as small as Britain, when a modern high-speed train could whisk them from London to Glasgow in less time than it takes to slog out to Heathrow and wait in line to be X-rayed, poked and prodded.
Better for the environment, quicker for you - and cheaper, too, despite O'Leary's griping.
He moans about the "inefficiency and high cost of rail services."
But who's inefficient? O'Leary's Ryanair is one of the beneficiaries of around £10 billion a year in indirect government subsidy in the form of tax exemptions.
Take that away from the airlines, give it to the new high-speed railway and let's see how "efficient" Ryanair looks then.
That would be manifestly in the public interest too, as would the new jobs that building the network would bring. There's another lesson to be learnt here from Spain, where Socialist Prime Minister Jose Luis Rodriguez Zapatero has made rail a key part of his plans to combat the recession.
He plans to invest nearly £100 billion in high-speed rail by 2020 - all of it from the public purse, for publicly owned trains running on publicly owned track.
Lord Adonis, on the other hand, remains vague about where the cash might come from - but he knows he wants the private sector involved.
Now that's the only part which does deserve the label "insane."
The private sector would make a shambles of any new high-speed network, just as it has with our current one. And letting privateers get involved in building the new lines would be doomed to failure too.
Britain's only existing high-speed line, the Channel Tunnel Rail Link, had to be bailed out by the government because, as then transport secretary John Prescott now admits, "the government was the only one that could find the resources."
The private sector will always struggle to find the kind of cash needed for such a huge project. It will always demand a huge return on its investment and it will always look to jump ship as soon as the going gets tough.
This new high-speed network would rank high on the all too short list of this government's finest achievements - as long as it's paid for by the public, owned by the public and run for the benefit of the public.

6 Tips for Selling Your Comp Plan to Investors
With proxy season upon us, board compensation committees find themselves having to defend the exec pay choices they made over the past year, and prove that they're really "paying for performance." Too bad so many boards and companies do such a poor job of telling this comp story.

How Much Does The Average CEO Really Earn?
Hint: it's a lot less than what mainstream media reports imply. Of the roughly 30 million businesses in the United States, less than 6,000 are publicly traded on major stock exchanges. As anyone who gets his or her information from mainstream news and media outlets well knows, the spotlight and analysis for business (especially in regard to CEO compensation) are firmly focused on S&P 500 companies. That means that virtually 100 percent of media coverage of CEO compensation focuses on less than 8 percent of all public companies and less than .002 percent of all companies in the U.S.Read More »

For example, in 2008 Citigroup CEO Vikram Pandit took home over $38 million in reported compensation, but that translates to $2.9 million earned compensation, or just over $1 million in realized compensation.Read More »

Well, today we're covering what one investigator called a "walk-up shooting" in Willowbrook. A shooting that left a teenage girl dead.
It happened last night on the 11900 block of Wilmington Avenue.
No one's been able to tell us who this girl is or what she was doing in front of this apartment building - investigators aren't even sure if she's 15 or 16 yet - although it doesn't really matter. What does matter is that around 11 o'clock last night she was standing on the staircase when a guy walked up, pulled out a gun and shot her.
Just like that.
And just like that, she was dead.
And as quickly as he walked up, he was gone.
Just like that.*
As I write this, three young girls are sobbing at the spot she was shot; the spot where just minutes ago a neighbor finished washing away her blood.
Yes, it's gory and ugly. Murder always is.
There's also a young man with them. He's clutching a candle with an 'Our Lady of Guadalupe' sticker on it. He's young but the tattoos etched all over his face tell an old story.
"There's too much violence", a woman passing by says. "Someone has to do something."
Yes someone does, but who?
"I didn't know her but this young lady could've been our next doctor, our next mayor...and here it is, her parents have to bury her.", she goes on to say.
Yes, she could have. Maybe she would have; she should have but she won't. She's dead.
The sobbing has now turned into wailing. At least one of the girls is the victim's sister.
"I didn't see her all day yesterday', one of them says to me.
And then she repeats it. Over and over, as she cries.
Just like that lady passing by said "There's too much violence. Someone has to do something."
Yes, someone does. But who?
If you have any information on this murder, please call the LA County Sheriff Department's Homicide Bureau at 323-890-5500

The Cuddle Cure
A Dog That Heals
When Nancy Gordon relaxes in front of the TV in her San Diego living room, the pain in her neck often flares up. But instead of reaching for ibuprofen or a heating pad, she simply says, "Neck, please," to the little gray, brown, and white dog snuggled at her side. Right away Toaster jumps onto Gordon's shoulders and wraps her 14-pound body around her owner's neck, offering instant relief.
Toaster is a Mexican hairless breed known as Xolos (pronounced show-low). Considered sacred by the Aztecs, who believed that the dogs have healing powers, the breed has a 3,000-year history of soothing arthritic pain. The body temperature of a Xolo is a toasty 102 degrees F., the same as any other dog. But the lack of fur means there's little to no insulation -- when you touch a Xolo, you feel every bit of that heat. Combine that with the dog's friendly nature and you've got a living, breathing heating pad.
Gordon, 54, says her Xolo saved her life. She was living in Portland, Oregon, and working as a licensed clinical social worker when her car crashed on a rainy highway in 1992. Doctors told her she was lucky to have survived the accident, but Gordon was left with excruciating neck and back pain. "A year later the pain wasn't any better," she says. "There were days when the simple act of driving to work would leave me feeling sore and exhausted."
Medications and physical therapy didn't help, and Gordon sank into a depression. In 1995, she was diagnosed with fibromyalgia. Finally, in 1998, she closed her psychotherapy practice. "Letting go of my career was one of the most painful experiences of my life," she says. "I loved helping people, but I didn't know how I could really be a good therapist when I couldn't even help myself."
In 1999, when a friend called to tell her about Xolos and how they relieve pain by giving off extraordinary body heat, Gordon was cautiously optimistic. The friend knew a breeder who had told her of the Xolos' history as healers. Intrigued, and smitten with the dogs' cute appearance and bat-like ears, Gordon bought a Xolo puppy -- her first dog -- and named it Toaster.
Gordon was amazed at how quickly the cuddly puppy could not only lift her spirits but also relieve her pain. "Before I adopted Toaster I had to wear a microwavable wrap around my neck almost 24/7." Toaster's not quite as warm as a heating pad, which means she can lie on Gordon's neck indefinitely without causing burns, and Gordon says that the little dog's weight provides gentle traction, which helps relax her muscles.
The benefits go far beyond that, though. Before she got Toaster, simple errands were exhausting and painful for Gordon. Suddenly they became fun. "She'd be wrapped around my neck while I was driving, helping my muscles stay relaxed and lifting my mood," Gordon says. Toaster turned out to have plenty of other qualities not found in a medical device. Often, before Gordon could even utter a command, Toaster would intuitively move to lie against the area of her body that was hurting. And Toaster needed her, too. "Having to get up each morning and take her for a walk helped me to focus less on my own pain."

Open enrollment under the Affordable Care Act begins on Oct. 1 and at the new health insurance marketplaces, call centers are open to help consumers understand what the act means for them.
However, criminals, scammers and con artists are going to work, calling victims and posing as a government representative so they can rip you off.
The Better Business Bureau is receiving complaints about these calls, sometimes resulting in identity theft.
"[They are] opening up credit card numbers, credit card information in their name, just really taking advantage of their identity," the BBB's Felicia Thompson said.
According to the BBB, these criminals are taking advantage of the complexity of the Affordable Care Act and the act is convincing.
"Stating [you] would receive a medical insurance card early and all they need to do is provide their social security number or their bank account information," Thompson said. "Of course, once you have those pieces of information, that's the baseline to opening up the world."
The medical insurance card is nothing more than a ploy.
"They don't exist," Thompson said.
Once they have your personal information, scammers can then steal your identity to access your bank accounts or sell your information to someone else, but there are ways to identify these people.
Firstly, the BBB says government agencies rarely call. Their preferred method of communication is by mail.
Secondly, the BBB suggests never giving out personal information like bank account numbers or social security numbers to unsolicited callers.
Also, don't always trust your caller ID either. The BBB has reports of scams so convincing they even rigged the caller ID to say something like, "Federal Government" or "The White House." Just because it's convincing doesn't mean they are who they say they are.

It was a somber day in Hanceville for the Culwell family Tuesday as they mourned the loss of their loved ones. Ryan Culwell, Amber Verus and 10-month-old Rogue Marie Culwell were killed Monday. Investigators say the three were hit by robbers on the run from police.
Ryan's father first heard about the fatal accident on the news Monday night not knowing that the three victims were his loved ones.
"I happened to be watching it and it showed the wreck and I got a slight glimpse of the Buick and it said a young man, a young woman, and a small child. I said 'oh God, don't let it be them,'" Max Culwell said.
But as it turns out, that scene was exactly what he was praying it would not be.
"It was them in that wreck in Birmingham," Culwell said.
Max remembers his son as an opinionated young man.
"He was a good boy, had his flaws but he was a good boy. They loved him at work," Max says.
Ryan worked at Rehau Manufacturing with his brother Alex. Max says on the day the family was killed, Amber was making moves to join the two men at the company.
"She had a job interview that same day. She was going to be working with him too. I kept the baby," Max said.
Those were Max's last moments with baby Rogue, who he lovingly calls Punkin' because he wasn't fond of the name her parents chose.
"I called her Punkin' I didn't like Rogue Marie," Max said.
The family says she was a headstrong little girl with lots personality at just 10-months-old.
"She'd do something then I'd holler or spat her hand and she'd wimper and smile and do it again," Max said.
Her great grandmother remembers her silly personality as well.
"She was always trying to stick her fingers in my mouth," Dorothy Culwell said.
Amber picked up the little girl from her grandfather's home Monday with plans to bring her back but that never happened.
"I wish she'd have brought her by and left her with me at least I would have had one left," Max said.
He also remembers Amber fondly. He helped her study for her GED and was very proud of her for passing. The young couple recently purchased a home in Blount County.

What men really think about love, relationships, intimacy, and commitment
Steve Harvey can't count the number of impressive women he's met over the years--women who can run a business, keep a household with three kids in tiptop shape, and chair a church group all at the same time. So when it comes to relationships, why can't these women figure out what makes men tick? According to Steve, it's because they're asking other women for advice when they should be going directly to the source. In his indispensable relationship guide "Act Like a Lady, Think Like a Man," now the basis for a major motion picture, Steve lets women inside the male mindset; introduces concepts such as the ninety-day rule; and reveals the five questions women should ask a potential partner to determine how serious he is.
Sometimes funny, sometimes direct, but always truthful, "Act Like a Lady, Think Like a Man" is a book you must read if you want to understand how men think when it comes to relationships, intimacy, and love.

Supporters of a World War II veteran fighting to fly his American flag will gather on Saturday in a show of unity.John Helton says the homeowners association of his community won't let him display the flag outside of his home. Since the story aired on FOX 5, some of Helton's neighbors have begun flying their flags to support Helton. Other neighbors have presented Helton with honorary medals.Helton's wife, Louise, put the flag back up on Friday, even though the retirement community says they'll fine her $25 a day for doing so."I feel like it was my cause is worth what I'm trying to do," said John Helton. "That somebody else knows and pays attention to what's going on."FOX 5's efforts to contact the homeowners association have gone unanswered. Some legal experts say that it is illegal to prevent flying the Stars and Stripes if they wish.On Saturday, up to 100 veterans say they'll turn out at the community to salute Helton.
Do you think Mr. Helton should be allowed to fly his flag? Post your thoughts here!

For most people, if your car breaks down on a road trip you can just check into a hotel until it's fixed. But not if you're traveling with 10 people and 12 horses. A group of Native Americans traveling the country broke down in Elkhart last night. They didn't know anyone in the area or what to do but the community quickly came to their aid.
Travis Mazawasicuna and his group from Manitoba, Canada are on what they call "The Unity Ride." They left New York and were headed for an event in Minnesota when their truck broke down on the toll road in Elkhart. "We broke down and all of a sudden what are we going to do?"
They were in a strange town, with 12 horses in trailers, and traffic whizzing by. Luckily help came quickly. Travis said, "we didn't have to do anything. Everybody came to the aid of us and we're thousand of miles, thousands of miles away from home."
One place that came to help was Smithfield Stables in Edwardsburg, Michigan. When caretaker Shelly Burdette received a call about the group's predicament, she didn't even think twice about letting all the horses and people come to stay at the stables. "It didn't really phase me when she called," said Shelly.
When the group arrived at the Stables Friday night Shelly told them, "make themselves at home, if you need anything let me know." Shelly said this is just how horse people are, they help other horse people. "I think when you have this many people in need and they have children and animals it's just something that brings people together."
Travis agreed, saying it's the spirit of the horse that brought them all this help from strangers. "It showed me there's a lot of kind people in this part of the country," said Travis.
The group tells us they found the parts they need to fix their truck. They were planning to work on it Saturday night and get back on the road as soon as possible.

Grand jury service is quite different from service on a trial jury (sometimes called a "petit" jury). The following are some of the main differences:
Serving on a grand jury allows you to take part in providing Alaska's citizens with one of the most fundamental guarantees in the Alaska Constitution: the guarantee that a person will have to face serious criminal charges only if a panel of private citizens decides there is sufficient evidence to require that person to stand trial.

vacation rental description
Welcome to sunny San Diego! And welcome to Villa Caribe, nestled in
the heart of the quaint, seaside town of Ocean Beach – famous for
its casual and relaxed atmosphere.
To the south you'll find Sunset Cliffs Nature Park - a great place
to spend the day exploring cliffs, caves and tide pools! Directly in
front of you lies a spacious patio area – with a convenient gas BBQ,
a small sandy "beach" patio to enjoy cocktails and the breathtaking
views of the sunset - and, of course, miles and miles of deep blue
ocean where we often see migrating whales, playful pods of dolphins
and adventurous surfers. To the north is the casual seaside town of
Ocean Beach. Stroll along Newport Avenue and take in the array of
small shops and boutiques. From antiques to surfboards, sandwich
shops to ocean-front fine dining – and bars and taverns in between –
Ocean Beach is friendly, informal and fun. In the evening, enjoy
cocktails while listening to the surf, or take a romantic stroll on
the famous Ocean Beach pier, and enjoy the lights of San Diego from
the over-water restaurant. And be sure to catch the fireworks
display from Sea World - only 10 minutes away! Return home to your
ocean-front hideaway, enjoy some wine with a loved one, and listen
to the waves crash on the beach. Paradise!
Our brand new property (newly remodeled for 2006) offers 5 vacation
residences – the St. Lucia, a two-bedroom suite, the Martinique, the
Trinidad and the Tobago, all one-bedroom suites and the Bonaire, a
romantic studio hideaway – each with its own charm, some with
unbelievable ocean views and all within minutes to miles of white
sandy beaches. Villa Caribe is close to all San Diego has to offer:
30 seconds from a rocky beach-explorer's playground, 2 minutes to
the heart of Ocean Beach, 6 minutes to the charming village of old
Pt. Loma, with its shops, restaurants and the San Diego Yacht Club,
10 minutes to Sea World, Old Town, the Gas Lamp District, the
airport, shopping at Fashion Valley, 15 minutes to the World Famous
San Diego Zoo and Balboa Park and about 30 minutes to Legoland and
the Wild Animal Park. We've included just about all the amenities of
The southern Caribbean island of ST. LUCIA, locally known as "the
fairest isle in all the world," is famous for its twin mountain
peaks – known as the Pitons (French for peak). It is these signature
symbols that are the inspiration for Villa Caribe's two-bedroom
suite - The St. Lucia. Situated at the western-most point of Villa
Caribe, the ocean-front St. Lucia suite offers accommodations for
six and spectacular views of color-splashed sunsets and miles of
deep-blue ocean waves. The St. Lucia is also located just outside of
Villa Caribe's sun-drenched patio, offering a BBQ area, ocean
access, use of the Villa's 6-person spa and unmatched pacific views.
Beautifully furnished with your comfort and the style of the
Caribbean in mind, The St. Lucia features fine tropical-style
furniture, a Cal-King bed, queen bed, leather sleeper-sofa (queen),
cable TV, Wi-Fi Internet access, and, for the aspiring chef, a fully-
equipped kitchen set amongst granite-tile, all over bamboo wood
MARTINIQUE is an isle of French charm, cuisine and culture, and also
the inspiration for The Martinique suite at Villa Caribe. Beautiful
beyond words, Martinique captured the attention of Paul Gauguin,
whose paintings are among the world's most prized treasures.
We believe you will treasure your stay at The Martinique at Villa
Caribe. Beautifully furnished with your comfort and the style of the
Caribbean in mind, The Martinique offers accommodations for four and
features fine tropical-style furniture, a Cal-King bed, leather
sleeper-sofa (queen), cable TV, Wi-Fi Internet access, and, for the
aspiring chef, a fully-equipped kitchen set amongst granite-tile,
all over bamboo wood flooring.
The twin-island Caribbean nation of TRINIDAD and TOBAGO is the
inspiration for Villa Caribe's two second-story suites. The Trinidad
and The Tobago each accommodate four persons and can be combined for
a group of eight simply by opening the connecting door.
Located on Villa Caribe's second level, guests of The Trinidad &
Tobago enjoy spectacular ocean views and are also invited to stroll
down to the sun-drenched patio offering a BBQ area, a small
sandy "beach" area to enjoy cocktails and breathtaking views of the
Beautifully furnished with your comfort and the style of the
Caribbean in mind, The Trinidad & Tobago Suites each feature fine
tropical-style furniture, a king bed, leather sleeper-sofa
(queen), cable TV, Wi-Fi Internet access, and, for the aspiring
chef, a fully-equipped kitchen set amongst granite-tile, all over
bamboo wood flooring.
Finally, the quaint, picturesque island of BONAIRE is a Caribbean
treat and a honeymoon haven featuring photo, sports and sightseeing
opportunities galore and is also the inspiration for The Bonaire -
Villa Caribe's popular studio vacation rental.
The perfect location for a romantic getaway, The Bonaire offers
comfortable accommodations for two. Guests at The Bonaire are invited to enjoy the sun-drenched patio offering a BBQ area, beach access, a small sandy "beach" patio to enjoy cocktails and unmatched pacific views.
Beautifully furnished with your comfort and the style of the
Caribbean in mind, The Bonaire features fine tropical-style
furniture, a queen bed, leather sleeper-sofa (twin), cable TV, Wi-
Fi Internet access, and, for the aspiring chef, a fully-equipped
kitchen set amongst granite-tile, all over terra cotta flooring.
Whichever residence you choose – the St. Lucia, the Martinique, the
Trinidad, the Tobago or the Bonaire – your ocean-front vacation
residence is waiting for you at Villa Caribe.

are you really complaining about municipal waste's lyrics? are you retarded?
Album Rating: 4.0123. I mean, what the fuck? If you're expecting to hear worthwile lyrics in a Municipal Waste song you must have taken too many knocks to the head. This is party music tailor made for partying your ass off, shredding hotels, busting mirrors, drunken boxing, group sex (all girls of course), late night romps to the gas station. Come on man....

I agree with Chan and Balls about the complaining of the lyrics. I would add in a line or two explaining that the lyrics will seem retarded if you like your thrash serious. Review was good and I'm sure your writing quality will improve over time. Bands really blows chunks.

Does anyone know about a fatal car crash on Bernal Ave. near St. Augustine's Sunday eve?
Original post made by Lisa on Dec 6, 2010
on Dec 6, 2010 at 9:29 am
I came here looking for the same info. I drove past at about 5:40 and there was a body bag the fire department looked like they were getting ready to pick up. It gave me a very sick feeling inside. The car didn't look to badly beat up and I drove past this AM and not a lot of damage to the roadside either.
on Dec 6, 2010 at 10:02 am
With little damage, etc., it could have been a stroke, heart attack, or something similar. Hmmm.
on Dec 7, 2010 at 9:04 pm
From the Pleasanton Patch:
Dec 5: A traffic collision was reported at 5:44 p.m. near St. Augustine Church. One vehicle reportedly hit a pole. Sgt. Robert Leong of the Pleasanton Police Department said the injuries sustained were not major.
There was no fatality.

The Eagle-Tribune
---- — The Manchester Monarchs scored three goals in the third period but lost in a shootout 5-4 against the Providence Bruins last night.
Manchester (21-22-2-3) is in fourth place in the Atlantic Division. The Bruins (27-17-0-3) are in second.
"We got a lot out of our guys in the third period," Monarch head coach Mark Morris said. "The second period put us in a hole. We spent a lot of energy in that period. I credit our guys for hanging in there and battling back. We did all we could until the shootout. We just needed a save."
Goalie Martin Jones (7-16-3) took his third shootout loss of the season. He stopped 22 of 26 shots in regulation and overtime, then stopped just three of eight shootout attempts.
Providence goalie Niklas Svedberg (22-6-2) made 27 saves on 31 shots in regulation and overtime, then stopped four of eight shootout attempts.
The Monarchs tied it 4-4 at 16:46 of the third period with a goal by Tanner Pearson.
Monarchs left winger Colton Yellow Horn scored his first career AHL goal and Manchester defenseman Andrew Campbell scored his first goal since Nov. 19, 2011.
Manchester went 1 for 8 on the power play. Providence was 2 for 5 with the man advantage.
The Monarchs, which are on a six-game winless streak (0-5-0-1), host the St. John's IceCaps at the Verizon Wireless Arena at 7 p.m. on Friday.

ARCADIA, Calif. (Jan. 31, 2010) – After faring poorly as the 5-2 favorite in the Grade I La Brea Stakes five weeks before, Gabby's Golden Gal dramatically rebounded with an 11-1 stunner in Sunday's 53rd running of the $250,000 Santa Monica Handicap for fillies and mares to provide 25-year-old jockey Martin Garcia with his first Grade I victory.
After tracking the early pace set by Free Flying Soul and Czechers, Arnold Zetcher's homebred 4-year-old filly closed strongly in the middle of the track to defeat hard-charging 2-1 favorite Proviso by 1 ¼ lengths. Gabby's Golden Gal ran the seven-furlong distance in 1:21.25.
It was the first time Garcia, a native of Veracruz, Mexico, had ridden the daughter of Medaglia d'Oro and added a glorious chapter to the union between Garcia and Hall of Fame trainer Bob Baffert.
Almost overnight it seems, Garcia has become a mainstay in the saddle for Baffert, winning his first five rides at the current Santa Anita meet for the famous trainer. With the Santa Monica triumph, Garcia has ridden 18 winners for Baffert from 55 mounts.
"I want to dedicate my first Grade I to Bob," Garcia said after dismounting from Gabby's Golden Gal. "He's giving me a lot of chances."
The young jockey reviewed his journey. "It's an amazing thing what she did today," he said. "Last time (when ridden by Mike Smith in the Dec. 26 La Brea), she needed the race and she was rank.
"Bob (Baffert) said the main thing today was to make her relax, and then make my move. Today, I had an opportunity to keep her outside of those two speed horses, and she relaxed very well. When I asked her, she just took off."
Proviso, ridden by Rafael Bejarano, finished well after emerging from behind rivals in the stretch to get the place by 1 ¼ lengths over Free Flying Soul and jockey Smith. Czechers, who had yielded the early lead to Free Flying Soul, held on for fourth another 1 ¼ lengths back with Chantal Sutherland in the saddle.
The Grade I victory was the second for Gabby's Golden Gal, who often does the unexpected. She captured Belmont Park's Grade I Acorn Stakes last June at odds of 13-1 before showing little at 5-2 in the Grade I Prioress at Belmont. She subsequently went to the sidelines for 5 ½ months before returning in the La Brea.
"She just needed the race," Baffert said. "I thought she was training well enough to win it, but she just laid an egg that day. Today, I was just hoping she didn't go too fast. She picked up the bit. Last time when she went to make the move, Mike (Smith) said she was just empty, so she just needed the race.
"Mike was committed to the other filly (Free Flying Soul), so I thought I'd give Martin a chance, and he came through. This filly has always shown me signs of greatness, like Indian Blessing. That's why we were just baffled after the La Brea."
Gabby's Golden Gal rewarded backers with payoffs of $25.20, $10.80 and $6.80 in the Santa Monica. Proviso returned $4 and $3. The show price on Free Flying Soul was $3.60.
The winner's share of $150,000 elevated the earnings of Gabby's Golden Gal to $499,405 from a record of 4-1-1 in nine career starts.
Santa Anita will be dark on Monday and Tuesday prior to the beginning of a five-day racing week on Wednesday with an eight-race program that starts at 1 p.m.

The Maine Grass Farmers Network (MGFN) and North Star Sheep Farm are hosting a pasture walk and fencing workshop on Saturday, July 13, 2013 beginning at 3:00 p.m., at Collyer Brook Farm in Gray, Maine.
The workshop will feature presentations by MGFN board member Ben Hartwell on fencing options, installation tips and design features for new and experienced grazers. The farm, at 17 Megquier Road in Gray, is owned and operated by Lisa and Phil Webster of Windham, Maine.
The Maine Grass Farmers Network collaborates with University of Maine Cooperative Extension, Natural Resources Conservation Service; Maine Organic Farmers and Gardeners Association; and Maine Department of Agriculture, Conservation and Forestry.
For more information about MGFN or this pasture walk, or to request disability accommodations, contact Rick Kersbergen, email@example.com or 207.342.5971. More information about North Star Sheep Farm is online.
University of Maine Cooperative Extension announces a pasture walk on Sunday, June 23, 2013 from 3:00 p.m. to 6:00 p.m. at Old Crow Ranch, 427 Davis Road, Durham, Maine.
Pasture improvements made possible with the Maine Grass Farmers Network's (MGFN) no-till drill will be discussed. MGFN members may use the no-till drill, which helps soil retain moisture and reduces erosion. A demonstration of how to use the drill to improve species composition in pastures begins at 3:00 p.m. A discussion of multi-species grazing used at Old Crow Ranch will be at 4:00 p.m. For more information, or to request disability accommodations, contact Richard Kersbergen at 207.342.5971 or firstname.lastname@example.com.
Steve Sinisi established Old Crow Ranch in 2008 with assistance from Land for Maine's Future and Royal River Conservation Trust. Sixty-five of the 70 acres were placed into an agricultural easement that preserves the farmland in perpetuity; Sinisi and Seren Huus built their homestead and farm on the remaining five acres.
The Maine Grass Farmers Network collaborates with UMaine Cooperative Extension, Natural Resources Conservation Service, Maine Organic Farmers and Gardeners Association, and Maine Department of Agriculture, Conservation and Forestry.

Post up some pictures of your favorite EDC light and knife combinations! I know some of you are really into flashlights as well, I'm curious if you have combinations you like to pair together? Or do you have certain combos you use for certain situations? Dressy/Outdoors/Camping/Tactical?
I just started to get into flashlights a little bit and spent some time looking for one that would be light enough to carry everyday, use regular batteries or lithium if I want more juice and would look nice. I ended up going with an EagleTac D25A Ti. I really like the UI interface, it's got a nice flood throw to it and it's superlight and discreet. So far I've only used energizer lithiums in it, but plan to get a 14500 rechargable to see how much brighter it gets.
It pairs up great with my new G-10 Dragonfly for a very compact and light carry combo that looks a little dressy.
