Fifteen engineering students from Dankook University in Yongin, Gyeonggi, South Korea, travelled 5,700 miles to study at UC Merced.
Two University of California, Merced leaders credited with spearheading the university's sustainability efforts were awarded the 2012 UC Sustainability Champion award.
Summer isn't a time to relax for UC Merced's faculty members and students – it's a time to focus on research.
Through a series of interviews and job shadowing, California State University, Stanislaus Professor Noelle Won found that teachers who shine at otherwise low-performing schools are tied together by a consistent thread of resiliency.
Facing $250 million in mid-year "trigger" cuts, trustees of the California State University system are scrambling to plan for a potentially massive budget shortfall.
When the University of California, Merced campus opened in 2005 it was supposed to be the beginning of a new era of access to higher educational opportunities for San Joaquin Valley students. In 1995, the University of California Board of Regents specifically selected Merced because it was in the heart of the state's largest and most populous region without its own UC campus - which hindered opportunities for residents and left a need for an educated workforce in the region.
If two words could summarize Interim California State University, Stanislaus President Joseph Sheley's first month in office, they would undoubtedly be "building bridges."
Stanislaus County Superintendent of Schools Tom Changnon and five elected board members – Merle Kronberg, Luis Molina, Kim Rose, Mary Ann Sanders and Kim Spina – will make themselves available to the public at the Stanislaus County Fair.
Merced College will remain on warning from the Accrediting Commission for Community and Junior Colleges for failing to meet standards in three areas.
California State University, Stanislaus students put the fun in chemistry on Tuesday when they assisted dozens of children in performing science experiments at the Turlock Salvation Army summer program. The college students and younger children used ordinary household ingredients to demonstrate the use of science in real life.
As 4th of July celebrations kick off today across the Valley, 112 local students will be representing Turlock in the National Independence Day Parade in Washington D.C.
While students are enjoying the summer away from teachers, homework, and the pressure of high school life, Turlock High School is undergoing a massive renovation throughout its entire campus to prepare for the upcoming school year.
California has now joined the list of states requesting a waiver from the requirements of the Elementary and Secondary Education Act, also known as "No Child Left Behind."
While most area students are spending their summer relaxing and enjoying a break from the rigors of the academic year, 93 Hilmar students are learning about another culture.
Turlock High School is continuing its quest to raise the bar on academic excellence by expanding its Advanced Placement program. THS currently offers 15 AP courses and is adding four new ones in the 2012-2013 school year: AP Psychology, AP Macroeconomics, AP Human Geography, and AP Environmental Science.
At their first scheduled meeting of the school year, the Turlock Unified School District Board of Trustees established new policies and policy changes to increase overall student success, one of which will push back exclusionary discipline practices, such as suspension, in favor of positive interventions to correct misbehaving students.
In order to fully prepare students for college, Turlock High School is now offering more Advanced Placement courses than ever.
Approximately 9,000 students converged at California State University, Stanislaus for the first day of classes Thursday and throughout the campus, from faculty to administration to knowledgeable seniors and excited freshmen, all had high expectations for the upcoming school year.
In its annual "Condition of College & Career Readiness" report released today, ACT found that California students taking the organization's college readiness test surpassed the nation's scores in English, reading, math, and science. The ACT assessment, which is administered to high school students, serves as a good indicator of how much a student is academically prepared to pursue a postsecondary education.
For approximately 14,000 students throughout the Turlock Unified School District, the start of the new school year officially kicked off on Monday. At Brown Elementary, students, parents, and guardians alike shared the same optimistic vision and hopes for the upcoming school year.
As the only community college in Stanislaus County that offers a Chemical Dependency Counseling Program, Modesto Junior College can fully prepare students academically to take the California Department of Alcohol and Drug Program's state licensing exam. Once licensed, students can apply their knowledge and expertise to help individuals who are battling addictions.
At their first regular board meeting of the school year, the Denair Unified School District Board of Trustees approved an increase to the daily and long term rate of pay for substitute teachers in hopes of attracting more eligible educators to Denair schools.
University of California, Merced is taking trash collection to the next level by incorporating new high-tech, solar-powered receptacles onto their campus.
Walnut Elementary teacher Bret Sutterly has taken the 'Go Green' message to heart in his classroom and his efforts have been recognized on a national level.

WWE Monday Night Raw comes waltzing back into our lives tonight (March 26, 2012) from the Philips Arena in Atlanta, Georgia. And it's the final episode of the company's flagship show before "The Granddaddy of Them All," WrestleMania 28.
That's right, ladies and sirs, tonight's Raw is the go-home show to WrestleMania 28, which takes place this Sun., April 1, 2012, at Sun Life Stadium in Miami, Florida.
That means there are just two hours of television time left for The Rock to fling a few more insults John Cena's way while he smiles like a complete goon who doesn't know what city he's in.
It's also the last chance for The Undertaker, Triple H, and Shawn Michaels to stare at each other and do their very best to make us wonder what side Michaels will come down on as special guest referee in their Hell in a Cell match just under a week from today.
That's without mentioning the awesome feud between CM Punk and Chris Jericho.
Raw starts at 9 p.m. ET time on USA, so be sure to make your way back here to chat with all your favorite Cagesiders during the show. It's always a fun time. Raw live blog after the jump.
Geno here.
Broadcast is live.
That one hour documentary beforehand had its moments but it felt a lot like it was just a big reminder of how poorly most of this feud was done. A LOT of bad performances from both guys.
Nickelback kicks us off this week. It's like WWE really wants me to change the channel. Seriously, listen to this dude. He sings like he's constipated.
We open with Randall Orton, of all people. Hey, sweet, they're just going into a match instead of banter. Tag team action!
They introduce Booker T as special guest commentator for the night. MAH BOY BOOKAH!
Randy Orton and Sheamus vs. Daniel Bryan and Kane -- Well, this is one way to do it. Give it away for free in a tag match before the singles matches on Sunday. Booker calls this a preview of this Sunday and says he can't wait for the bell to kick things off.
"It's like the SUPER BOWL!"
Before the match, Bryan gets his good luck kiss from AJ. Lucky bastard.
Orton and Bryan start and Randy takes the early edge. Bryan battles back with kicks but Orton again takes over. They do a spot with Orton tagging Sheamus in and Bryan hauling ass to the corner to tag in Kane.
WWE shows us Randy Orton is trending worldwide. Meaning no one else gives a shit about the other three guys in this match? Also trending worldwide is "Baylor and Tennessee," which is a women's college basketball game. That should tell you all you need to know about trending topics.
Anyway, Sheamus is all but murdering Kane before some outside interference from Bryan gives the heels the edge once again.
Commercial break.
They come back and Bryan and Sheamus are in the ring battling. Wait, wasn't the early psychology of this match to tease physical confrontation between the guys who will be in matches at 'Mania? So why pay it off while TV is at commercial?
Anyway, hot tag to Orton and he's destroying Bryan. Five moves of oily doom and just when Orton is about to go for the RKO, Kane pulls him out. So Randy runs to the outside and they brawl briefly. Bryan nails Orton to give the heels control again and Kane keeps it going back inside the ring.
Kane tries to come off the top rope but gets met with a drop kick. This leads to the hot tag to Sheamus and Bryan. The babyfaces take control and after incapacitating Bryan, Orton and Sheamus double team Kane. They send him to the outside where Orton tries an RKO but Kane sends him into the ring post.
In the ring, Sheamus loads up for the Brogue Kick but AJ steps in the way. She distracts the referee long enough for Kane to show up and choke slam Sheamus after he missed the Brogue Kick. Bryan then gets the pin.
He's definitely losing at WrestleMania now.
Bryan celebrates like only he can while AJ politely applauds on the outside looking so damn cute.
They cut to a promo of Rock and Cena giving each other the Rock Bottom and Attitude Adjustment, respectively. That was one year ago. Boy, how time flies.
They're both in the building, by the way, for one more live confrontation before the match on Sunday night.
Commercial break.
Michael Cole is in the ring putting on a Team Johnny shirt. He says just moments ago he was named the official commentator for Team Johnny at WrestleMania. He announces Johnny Laurinaitis and he walks out to no music. That has to change.
He introduces the official flag bearer for Team Johnny, Vickie Guerrero. She comes out waving a gigantic flag with Team Johnny on it and Ace's shit eating grinning face. That is AWESOME.
Now David Otunga gets an introduction and he does his big entrance, which is filled with a lot of posing showing off his insanely chiseled body. They head for the ring and meanwhile Booker T climbs up on the announce desk to introduce Teddy Long.
He comes out and introduces Santino Marella, who comes out with Hornswoggle waving a the Team Teddy flag. This is the match we're getting.
Santino Marella vs. David Otunga -- Santino leaves his shirt on. He opens with a side headlock but gets blown up fairly quick. Otunga puts him on his ass but he pops back up and they stare down just long enough to get a Santino chant going.
Otunga takes control again and puts Marella down in the corner. He has Vickie give him the flag and he poses with it in the middle of the ring. So Hornswoggle climbs in and tries to steal his thunder. Otunga takes the flag from him and takes a swing but bounces it off the ropes and hits himself in the face. Santino hits the Cobra right after and gets the pin.
Laurinaitis climbs in the ring and ends up getting pushed by Long AGAIN. They set up Santino to hit the Cobra but The Miz comes running out and gives Santino the Skull Crushing Finale.
Right after, Ace tells him congratulations on being on Team Teddy ... er, you're going to WrestleMania ... on Team Johnny.
Miz celebrates as though Ace didn't blow his line and now Team Johnny is full. Presumably, Team Teddy will fill out on Smackdown. Rumors are strong that it will be Rey Mysterio. Would they wait for Smackdown to introduce that, though?
We shall see.
They let us know CM Punk will take on Christian in singles action tonight and they actually promote ahead of time a video package. They're now outright promoting video packages designed to promote.
Commercial break.
They show another video for Cena vs. Rock, this time it's "The Challenge," when Rock proposed the match and Cena accepted.
Time for the Undertaker vs. Triple H Hell in a Cell match with Shawn Michaels as special guest referee promo spot.
Not a bad video. Better than the promos for Cena vs. Rock, if we're being honest.
Divas match up next and Eve, a heel, comes out with a goofy ass grin on her face. No heat for her. At all. She's accompanied by Beth Phoenix, her partner at WrestleMania.
Commercial break.
Eve vs. Kelly Kelly -- Eve dominating this match with the usual hair pulling and knocking around. She finally misses on her moonsault and Kelly gets the worst roll up pin in the history of time. God, she's terrible at wrestling. Beth acts all upset but Kelly went right past her. Whatever. Waste of time.
Another promo for Cena vs. Rock and they show highlights of the Survivor Series match against R-Truth and Miz.
Up next is Punk in action.
Commercial break.
CM Punk vs. Christian -- Uh-oh. Before they can start, Chris Jericho shows up on the Titantron. Claiming all the usual stuff, talking about all Punk's deep dark secrets. His family is all sorts of dysfunctional, y'all. But there's new information now, folks.
Uh-oh, Jericho is going after Punk's mom. Maybe not. He says Punk's mom is real nice and she's a decent person. He did learn, though, that Punk is a bastard. Because, you see, his parents had him before getting married.
Punk looks devastated and Christian uses the opening to attack. He works Punk over for a minute or two before the champ turns the tables and goes insane. Punk bashes his head against the announce table about 41 times before throwing him into a set of steel steps face first. After that, it's time for the Anaconda Vice.
The referee begs for him to let go but Punk just screams, "No. This is you, Jericho."
More referees show up and Punk says, "I'm the one who says when he's had enough." That was baller.
He acts like he's done but runs back over to attack Christian one more time. His music plays and he holds the title up in the ring looking intense.
"He is ready for WrestleMania, oh my goodness," says Booker T. Indeed, sir.
Commercial break.
They're running an injury angle for Christian, saying he messed up his neck.
He's back in red. White hat intact. Curt Hawkins is the victim tonight.
Brodus Clay vs. Curt Hawkins -- Jiggle to start. Yes, I said jiggle to start. Hawkins gets the early advantage with a dive at the knees. It doesn't last long, though, as Clay regains control with his drop down belly punch and SHEEPLEX!
Dino splash and the pinfall. That was maybe 45 seconds. And it was awesome.
Another promo for Cena vs. Rock, this time with Cena cutting his best promo of the feud a few weeks ago.
Commercial break.
Big Show vs. Primo -- This is actually a match on the go-home episode of Raw to the biggest show of all time, folks. When Primo's music hit, you couldn't hear a damn thing. Just a lot of heads turning wondering who the hell Show's opponent is.
And these guys are the tag team champions.
Cole tells us over commentary that Christian is out of WrestleMania 28 now thanks to his re-aggravated neck injury. That leaves another spot open on Team Johnny.
Meanwhile, Show squashes Primo and gets a quick pin.
This leads to Cody Rhodes coming out and talking Show down. He says after 'Mania this Sunday they're going to make "Big Show" a verb. "Young men going to the bar, they're hoping they don't 'big show' with the ladies. Even better, I've gotta take a 'big show.'"
That's good stuff, Mr. Rhodes.
He finishes up with the stock proclamation he'll win at WrestleMania before walking off.
More teasers for the big confrontation between Rock and Cena tonight. What will they say that hasn't already been said?
Commercial break.
Another promo for Lord Tensai. Welcome back, A-Train!
The Bella Twins are in the back arguing. The two are wearing opposite shirts, one for Team Teddy and one for Team Johnny. Zack Ryder shows up and shoots himself in the foot by saying something really stupid.
The Bellas bail out and Eve shows up. She wants Ryder to stay at her hotel during WrestleMania weekend. He tries to kiss her but she says it will have to be after the big show.
Backstage interview now with Punk. He cuts off Josh Matthews. He says Jericho's taken things over the line one too many times and he's not a bastard but the best wrestler in the world. All with a super intense face while breathing heavily into the microphone.
Commercial break.
Mark Henry vs. Great Khali -- HA. During Khali's entrance, they show a very good looking blonde in the crowd dancing. I guess that's why they keep him around?
Cole announces that Laurinaitis tweeted Drew McIntyre will be taking Christian's place at WrestleMania.
The big men leave their shirts on, presumably to let us know who is who here. Khali hits the big chop early but Henry responds with the World's Strongest Slam and that gets the pin. He TOSSED Khali on that slam, too. Looked good.
Laurinaitis tosses Long into the ring with Henry and then starts waving towards the back. The entire team comes running out and sets up a boundary around the ring. McIntyre is actually out there, too. Team Teddy comes running out and they brawl. Actually, it's just Santino and Ryder. Truth comes in now but he's out quick. Now Kofi Kingston jumps into the ring but he gets hit with the World's Strongest Slam too.
Henry picks up Long and takes his sweet time. Booker T climbs in the ring and hits the Scissors kick. His music -- which is one of the best ever -- hits. They stop it, though, and Long has a mic.
He says he wants to publicly say thanks. But he also wants to ask him to join Team Teddy. Booker looks around, grabs the mic, and says he's got just one thing to say to that.
"Now, can you dig that, sucka?!?!?"
One more promo for Rock and Cena. This time it was from last week with Rock finally making a statement by hitting an already weakened Mark Henry with the Rock Bottom in front of Cena before pointing to his shirt and walking off like a boss.
Cena actually bothered to sell it that time with a worried facial expression.
They're up next and it's 10:45 p.m. ET. Which means we won't be getting a final segment for the second biggest match at WrestleMania? This is terrible.
Commercial break.
Wow. Not even Rock got a big pop. This crowd is garbage. That or it's not mic'd well.
Rock pauses for effect and I'm not sure why because the crowd is dead. Eventually, a very small and short Boots to Asses chant breaks out. It dies but he waits even longer to speak and another, stronger chant happens. Still, not much to work with.
He starts in and he's in full on schtick mode. He says everyone is asking him when he's coming back. At the doctor, they tell him to drop his pants and cough but first say when you're coming back. He says he doesn't know and no he won't drop his pants, you're a dentist.
Yep, it's that kind of promo.
He says he knew when he was coming back was last year right here in Georgia. He's crowd pandering again, too, which is just too damn funny, to this very day.
Another Boots 2 Asses chant breaks out. Rock stops for it, even though only about eight people were participating.
It took him about 10 minutes but he finally does his finally schtick. The crowd actually bothered to go along with that one.
Rock says his last WrestleMania match coincided with Cena's first. And since then, John has made quite the name for himself, transcending the sport and all that. But he's never faced anyone on the same level as Rock.
Just as he's about to go into his spiel on what he's going to do to Cena at 'Mania, Cena's music hits.
And the crowd goes insane. When his music stops, they're still insane. Much more than for Rock. Don't get mad, Rock marks, it's just the way it is.
Cena says Rock claimed he's never seen anyone like him but in reality, Rock has never seen anyone like Cena.
Naturally, it breaks down into Cena with that big goofy smile on his face and repeating the usual talking points. Rock, meanwhile, looks like he's physically in pain from holding himself back. Cause, you know, he may not say it properly, but he can sure use good body language to convey how much he wants to destroy Cena.
Cena once again starts talking about how electric the crowds are. I have no clue why this matters so much for him. Since he's always said he doesn't care. Whatever.
He even gets a the dueling chant going himself. Let's go, Cena. Cena sucks.
You see, he just does what his shirt says. He rises above hate. Not only that, he rises above and he wins. They know it and they hate it but that's what he does.
God, I wish Rock would smack that silly ass smile off his face.
Cena says it's time to throw some more truth in Rock's trash. Cena's been around WWE longer than Rock, actually. Sure, Rock was around in the Attitude Era when it was cool to be a WWE superstar but Cena has been here when it wasn't so cool to be here.
This is why Cena has to win. He'll be around forever but Rock will just bail out.
Rock refusing to interrupt is actually starting to piss me off.
Cena gets all intense and says, "I'll be goddamned if you come in a visitor and take my life from me."
Nice line.
He says he's spent 10 years doing this and no one remembers second place and that's why he has to win. Everyone knows he has to win.
Rock takes over. Says he knows how important the match is to him but it's just as important to Rock. But he said something. He talked about the people. They know that Rock helped build WWE. The fans know that Cena never had an opponent he couldn't overcome until Rock.
They know that Rock, "The People's Champion," has come back after all this time just to beat Cena. Never before has a man been able to say that a man has went into WrestleMania and beat Hulk Hogan, Stone Cold Steve Austin and John Cena. On a professional level, Rock needs to win to become the best superstar of all time. But on a personal level, Rock just doesn't like him. So in six days, not only will Rock beat him, he'll give him the ass-kicking of a lifetime.
Cena answers back with a fitting phrase. "It doesn't matter what you think."
He goes on and says Rock will see him at WrestleMania because he'll be the guy standing over Rock's carcass and the headline will read he was the guy who whipped The Rock's ass at WrestleMania.
Mics are dropped and the show fades out with both men still jawing. Cena is smiling again. What a great segment that he basically killed by smiling like a goon. Ugh.
Fade to black.

BBC DAB Comes to Shetland Islands
Lerwick, Shetland Islands - Aug 26, 2011 - The Shetland Islands are an archipelago of Scotland, located in the North Sea about 110 miles north of the mainland of Great Britain. The latitude of the main island is about the same as Bergen, Norway. However, as remote though they are, the islands are now served by the BBC's DAB service, since new transmitters at Scalloway and Bressay were turned on this week. Their service area should encompass about 3/4 of the population of the islands; some 17,000 people. Stations now available include BBC Radio 1, 2, 3 and 4, 5Live, 1Extra, 6Music, 5Live extra, the BBC World Service and the Asian network. Ironically, neither Radio Scotland nor are available; those stations are carried in Scotland by commercial multiplexes, which are not available in the Shetlands.

I was at the game yesterday, but I don't have anything to add regarding what happened in the game. But I wanted to share a number of other noteworthy things:
- Regarding the player introductions, Walker did get a big shout, as I expected, but I don't think it was any bigger than McCutchen's; it may not even have been bigger than Overbay's (who was benefiting, I suspect, from playing the role of "Veteran FA Signee." Oddly, I heard at least one boo when Pearce was introduced. I thought I saw a grown man weep after that, but I can't swear that it was Vlad.
- In general, for how crummy the game went, there was less booing than you might expect. A few years back, when Duke spit the bit on Opening Day, the boos were lusty and early. I think there might be a touch more optimism about this team among hoi polloi.
- On a related note, I biked to and from the game, wearing a jersey. I always love seeing the groups of people in Pirates gear as I come down Penn Ave - all the way out in Bloomfield, you see pairs of people waiting for the bus to get to the game. On the way back, two different people called to me from their car windows to ask if they won. When Dejan Kovacevic and others suggest that this town is absolutely primed to go nuts for a winning Pirates team, I think they're right. On the other hand, the look of "Same Old Pirates" on these people's faces when I told them it was a loss suggested that they won't bother asking again this year. The window for this club to capture the town's heart gets smaller every season.
- Late in the game, I moved down to the second row near first base. There was a funny exchange between a guy in the stands and Rockies first base coach Glenallen Hill. Hill's back pocket had the inevitable can of chew, but also something else. The fan shouted to ask what it was, and Hill, without turning, pulled out what looked like a Werther's Original, then also pulled out a paper of some sort. Then he gave a little shimmy, which was hilarious. The fan started shouting about Dancing With The Stars. Then the fan told him to scratch one leg if he agreed that Wigginton sucks, and the other leg if he disagreed. When the inning ended, Hill came over and gave the guy a talking-to about that (classily, he called him up to the fence to do it, rather than calling into the stands).
- Also up front was Mike Tomlin, in a Cutch jersey, with his two sons. No big deal, but cool. Near as I could tell, people left them alone during the game, and were even pretty good when they were walking out afterward - snapping pictures and calling "Hey, Coach," but not much more. I've read athletes saying that Pittsburgh is great because the fans know you and love you, but also keep their distance.

Republicans produce document they claim shows Kaine connection to Soering
Virginia Attorney General Ken Cuccinelli released a document that he claims shows a connection between former Governor Tim Kaine and convicted murderer Jens Soering, prior to Kaine being elected to public office.
Kaine, then a practicing civil rights attorney in Richmond, wrote a three page supportive affidavit that was then used on Soering's behalf. The affidavit package appears to show Kaine offering assistance to Soering's defense team in seeking relief from a potential capital punishment sentence.
Kaine's campaign says he had nothing to do with the matter and that document was part of the public record. They say it was not intended for inclusion in this affadavit.
The document filed in 1988, is part of a series of affidavits Soering filed fighting his extradition from Germany to avoid the death penalty in Virginia. Soering was eventually convicted of two first degree murder charges and given two consecutive life sentences in 1990.
In the document Kaine does not address Soering's guilt or innocence, but instead talks about the legal ramifications of a capital murder conviction. In fact, Soering himself is not even mentioned in the document.
Kaine has consistently said that his connections to Soering were only as governor and it was his responsibility to review requests from the man, and act accordingly. He finally signed a letter allowing the DOJ to review the case so that Germany would be financially responsible for his imprisonment, and only after the country convicted him in a German court and agreed he'd be sent directly to a German prison.
Kaine's campaign vehemently denies his connection to Soering in this matter and says the affidavit was pulled from the public record of a 1988 case. Kaine served as an expert on Virginia capital procedure in a constitutional hearing initiated in federal court by Virginia capital inmate Joseph Giarrantano. They note that Soering's name is not included anywhere in the filing and that Kaine did pnot consent to his work being used in the case.
In a conference call on the matter, Cuccinelli conceded that it is in the "realm of possibility" that Kaine could've written something in support of a completely different case that could've have been used in this matter. However, Cuccinelli defended his assertion that Kaine has not been completely forthcoming for his reasoning for offering Soering a transfer. He said that during their review of the case, they should've been aware that a document exisited with his name attached to it, that was used in support of Soering.
The Kaine campaign released the following response to Cuccinelli's release of the documents:
"Governor Kaine wrote this affidavit as an expert witness in a completely separate case that had nothing to do with Jen Soering. Not once does it mention Jen Soering nor does it deal with the specific circumstances of the Soering case. We'll leave it to the Allen campaign and the Attorney General to use state government resources to play politics in the Virginia Senate election. Governor Kaine is focused on working together with Virginians to strengthen our economy and create jobs." — Brandi Hoffine, Kaine for Virginia Communications Director
We will continue to look into the details behind the issue.
Meanwhile, here is my uncut interview with the Attorney General from First at 4:

*The affidavit itself (pulled from the filing)a>;;;. Kaine's section begins on page 12.
Cuccinelli files suit against White House party crasher
Virginia Attorney General Ken Cuccinelli announced Monday that he has filed a lawsuit against Tareq Salahi and his company Virginia Wine Tour .com. Salahi has been at the center of many mysterious and outrageous news stories over the past two and a half years. In November of 2009 Salahi, and his now estranged wife Michaele, showed up uninvited to a White House State Dinner for the prime minister of India. They were granted access despite not being on the guest list, which led to a firestorm of controversy.
The stunt was part of an effort to become part of the cast of "The Real Housewives of D.C.". They did appear in one season of the reality tv show.
The fallout from the party crashing stunt has been all negative for Tareq. It has brought a great deal of attention to his business and charity work, attention that lead to questions about the way he conducted business. Michaele also very publicly abandon Tareq to go on the road with the Journey guitarist Neal Schon.
Salahi's problems, most of which were terrific tabloid and celebrity gossip fodder, have now officially become a legal problem. Cuccinelli and the Attorney General's office have filed suit against his company for failing to deliver on promised services.
A full release from Cuccinelli's office on the lawsuit can be found below:
Attorney general announces lawsuit against VirginiaWineTour.com
and Tareq Salahi
- VirginiaWineTour.com allegedly did not deliver tours as promised, did not provide refunds for canceled tours -
RICHMOND (April 23, 2012) – Attorney General Ken Cuccinelli announced today that he has filed suit against Tareq Salahi and two related entities involved in a wine tour venture for alleged violations of the Virginia Consumer Protection Act, including not delivering tours as promised, not providing refunds for tours they canceled, and misrepresenting reputable businesses as "official partners."
Salahi and the other two defendants, Virginia Wine Tourism, Inc. and Celebration Entertainment Productions, LLC (collectively, "VirginiaWineTour.com"), offer wine tour services in the Northern Virginia region through the web site VirginiaWineTour.com.
Salahi is the sole officer and director and presumed sole owner of Virginia Wine Tourism, Inc. and the presumed sole member and manager of Celebration Entertainment Productions, LLC.
VirginiaWineTour.com offers to provide transportation to and prearranged tours with individual wineries. The tours offered range from four-hour tours for small groups to week-long charters for up to 45 guests. Tour prices range from $200 to $1,350 for day tours, or more for weeklong charters.
Based on complaints filed with the Virginia Office of Consumer Affairs and the Better Business Bureau and his own investigation, the attorney general learned that VirginiaWineTour.com has not been delivering wine tours as promised.
The Virginia Consumer Protection Act (VCPA) generally prohibits suppliers from engaging in deception, fraud, false pretense, false promise, or misrepresentation in connection with consumer transactions. In his complaint, the attorney general alleges that VirginiaWineTour.com has violated the VCPA in the following ways:
- failing to deliver agreed-upon services. Some consumers reported that, often on the morning of their scheduled wine tours, they received calls informing them that the tours were cancelled, with the caller typically citing a vehicle malfunction as the reason for the cancellation. Some consumers never heard from the company again after paying in advance for the services;
- failing to deliver services as promised. Some consumers complained they were not taken to all of the wineries that were promised to them, or that the mode of transportation was not as advertised or promised;
- failing to deliver on promises to deliver refunds. When VirginiaWineTour.com failed to provide promised services, it often promised to make consumers whole by, among other things, providing full refunds to consumers. These promises sometimes were made in writing and refunds were not ultimately given;
- and misrepresenting affiliations with reputable businesses. VirginiaWineTour.com's web site displays logos of several reputable businesses, including United Airlines, the Bed and Breakfast Association of Virginia, and Facebook, listing them all as "official partners." The attorney general has reason to believe that many, if not all, of the entities whose logos appear on VirginiaWineTour.com's website are not "official partners" with VirginiaWineTour.com.
The lawsuit was filed today with the Fauquier County Circuit Court. It requests that the court enjoin VirginiaWineTour.com from violating the VCPA and that all money acquired from consumers in violation of the law be returned. The suit also seeks civil penalties of up to $2,500 for each violation of the act.
Consumers may file complaints regarding VirginiaWineTour.com with the Virginia Office of Consumer Affairs. Complaint forms can be obtained by clicking here or by calling the Office of Consumer Affairs at (804) 786-2042 in the Richmond area, or (800) 552-9963 statewide.
Cuccinelli to watch and provide analysis of health care hearing
The fight over the federal Affordable Care Act or "ObamaCare" has become one of the top priorities of Virginia Attorney General Ken Cuccinelli's during his time in office. Cuccinelli chose to challenge the law on his own, instead of joining up with several other states that filed similar lawsuits.
In the early going, the decision to strike out on his own, brought Cuccinelli and Virginia big headlines because of early wins. Virginia successfully kept the suit from being dismissed and then won the argument at the first level. But as other suits quickly made their way through the federal courts, the Cuccinelli suit got hung up at the appellate level. He didn't really win or lose, the case was dismissed because a three judge panel in in the 4th Circuit Court of Appeals determined there wasn't enough information for them to rule on the case.
The Supreme Court, which had already elected to hear other challenges to the health care reform decided not to take up Virginia's suit.
But even though the Cuccinelli lawsuit itself won't be among those being heard over a historic three day marathon session at the Supreme Court, that doesn't mean our Attorney General won't be involved. Cuccinelli will be in Washington, D.C. for all three days of arguments and will hold teleconference calls after each session to provide his analysis.
Many of the arguments made will be similar to the claims Cuccinelli has argued since first filing Virginia's lawsuit. Chief among them, can the Federal Government require ever American to have health insurance or pay a fine?
The answer could have major implications for the upcoming presidential election and perhaps even carry over into 2013, when Cuccinelli asks Virginia voters to promote him to governor.
We'll have full coverage of today's hearing and Cuccinelli's reaction today on NBC12.
Cox on chances of changing GOP ballot access: "zero to none"
Virginia House Majority Leader Kirk Cox doesn't like the odds of the General Assembly altering the rules to allow more candidates onto the GOP presidential primary ballot in March. In an interview with NBC12's Andy Jenks, Cox said the chances of that happening are "zero to none".
Cox sympathizes with Texas Governor Rick Perry and former House Speaker Newt Gingrich, who were kicked off the ballot after not getting enough qualified signatures, but said they knew the rules ahead of time. According to Cox, their poor planning should not lead the state legislature to rush in to changing the standards.
"I think the biggest mistake you can make though is to jump into it and say, Oh yeah because one candidate was affected let us go back and completely change the law," he said. "I think that makes bad policy."
Cox is open to changing the law in the future, but doubts that there will be an appetite for rushing through legislation before March. His opinion is different that Attorney General Ken Cuccinelli who assailed the process in a e-newsletter to his supporters. While Cuccinelli's opinion matters, Cox is among a small group of lawmakers with the power to actually change the law. The fact that he appears unwilling to do so speaks volumes.
His perspective seems to be in line with Governor Bob McDonnell, who in the wake of the ballot controversy told us that the rules are the rules.
"If somebody doesn't like the rules, maybe the legislature can change it next time," said McDonnell. "But everybody knew this was the rules to compete with." Extended clips from McDonnell's remarks can be found below.
But the legislature may be one of several paths that supporters of the candidates left out may be able to take. Former Democratic Party of Virginia Chairman Paul Goldman is exploring some of those options with the conservative "Citizens for the Republic'. Today on First at 4, Goldman told me it's not about Gingrich or Romney it is about the voters who will have fewer options to choose from.
UPDATE: It appears Goldman is not the only looking into a non-leglislative solution to the ballot access problem. Late today the campaign for Rick Perry announced that they have filed a Federal Court Challenge to the RPV's decision to deny him access to the ballot.
His challenge can be found here.
Goldman hopes to reveal his plan to help get more candidates on the ballot as soon as tomorrow. My conversation with him from First at 4 can be found below:
Governor McDonnell's comments on the subject can be seen below:
Cuccinelli and Bolling still haven't talked about potential primary
It is something that many saw coming as soon as Ken Cuccinelli and Bill Bolling stood along side Bob McDonnell at the Republican convention of 2009. What would happen if both the Attorney General and Lt. Governor decided they wanted to be the next governor? That speculation is now a reality and earlier than anyone imagined that it could've come to be.
Today, for the first time since the Washington Post broke the story that Cuccinelli was planning a bid for governor, the Attorney General spoke. NBC4's Julie Carey talked one on one with Cuccinelli. Here is my story on their interview for NBC12:
RICHMOND (WWBT)- Attorney General Ken Cuccinelli is speaking out about what led to his decision to announce his plans to run for governor in 2013.Cuccinelli's original plan was to wait until after the Virginia legislative session, but the Washington post got the jump on his plans. That meant he had to reveal his intentions, before he got a chance to talk to Lt. Governor Bill Bolling.
Now, just short of two years before voters go to the polls to elect a new governor, a potentially difficult political storm is brewing.
"The decision I was put to was, do we just try to put the genie back in the bottle or do we run with it?" said Cuccinelli.
Cuccinelli was forced to make a move after the Post broke the story. He reacted by informing his staff and then the press, but not his potential primary opponent, Lt. Governor Bolling.
"He wouldn't return my calls on Friday," Cuccinelli said of Bolling. "It makes it kind of hard to talk to somebody when that's happened."

Cuccinelli informs staff of his intention to run for governor
In an email to the staff of the Office of the Attorney General, Ken Cuccinelli confirmed reports that he will indeed run for governor.
Cuccinelli promised the staff that he would serve until the last day of his current term and said that the AG's position is the "best job of his life". He also said that he would formally announce his intentions to the media shortly after they recieved the email.
While Cuccinelli begins the process to mount a campaign for governor, the man who he hopes to replace is sticking with Lt. Governor Bill Bolling. Bob McDonnell's staff said today that while he has an incredible amount of respect for Cuccinelli, he will continue to support Bolling, who McDonnell brokered a deal with to avoid a primary in 2009. Bolling has remained firm in his plan to run for governor, meaning the scenario the GOP avoided in 2009 appears to be invetiable in 2013.
Here is the full transcript of the Cuccinelli email to staff:
OAG colleagues,
You have likely heard in the media the many rumors about an announcement of a run for governor. While I wanted to wait to announce a candidacy until after the General Assembly session, as the rumors swirl, I find it necessary to put them to rest.
After much prayer and consideration, I have decided to run for governor in 2013. I have always intended to let you know before the media. Shortly after you receive this email, I will be sending a statement to the media announcing my candidacy.
Being attorney general is the best job of my life, and working with so many bright and dedicated professionals in this office has made it a true joy.
We have protected vulnerable citizens from fraud, worked to get gangs off the streets through intervention as well as prosecution, saved taxpayers from millions in Medicaid fraud, fought for fair utility prices for consumers, provided our clients with official legal opinions that have never been overruled by any court, and stood up to the federal government when it broke the law and infringed on the sovereignty of Virginia and the liberty of her people.
We will continue this work together until the last day of my term. Just as I had intended not to resign as attorney general to run for a second term, I will not resign as attorney general to run for governor. The people of Virginia trusted me to be their attorney general, and I intend to give them their full four years. I also think it is important to see these lawsuits against the federal government all the way through, as they are unprecedented battles for liberty in our lifetimes.
I am committed to you and to the citizens of this commonwealth to leading this office and making this job my priority. I have no right to ask the voters for a promotion if I cannot continue to do my current job well.
I know many of you are wondering why I decided to run for governor instead of for re-election. As so many former attorneys general know from being legal counsel to every agency of state government, this job gives you tremendous insight and perspective on the inner workings of state government that no other job can provide.
Being governor of the commonwealth and all its agencies is truly a massive task, and with only four years to do it, there is little time for on-the-job training. That is especially true when Virginia and the entire country are facing unprecedented economic challenges, a bullying federal government, and financially strapped citizens who are demanding that we ensure every dollar taken from their families to pay for government is a dollar that is spent wisely. When Governor McDonnell finishes his successful term, I am convinced his successor needs to hit the ground running to keep the momentum moving forward in the face of federal and economic challenges.
I hope you have known me long enough to know that I do this out of my love for our commonwealth and to further the principles on which this country was founded. Although I originally expected to serve as attorney general for another term, my job is that of public servant, and I feel that two years from now, I can best serve the people of Virginia from the governor's office.
Thank you for your dedication to this office and to the people we serve. I look forward to our continued work together and our successes during the remaining two years of my term.
Cuccinelli set to announce run for governor
The Washington Post's Anita Kumar first broke the story Wednesday night. Attorney General Ken Cuccinelli will soon announce his plans to run for Governor of Virginia. Here is an excerpt from her story:
Cuccinelli, a tea party hero who garnered national attention for suing the federal government over the new health-care law, expects to make a formal announcement after the legislative session in the spring, according to the sources, who spoke on the condition of anonymity so they could speak freely about his plans.
..the full story.. here.
NBC12 has independently confirmed the Post's story with sources close to the Attorney General. His political spokesman Noah Wall did not return inquiries for comment.
Lt. Governor Bill Bolling, who stepped aside to allow then Attorney General Bob McDonnell to run for governor, has been planning a run in 2013 for some time. Tonight his aide, Randy Marcus said they have not heard anything about Cuccinelli's plans but what he decides to do or not do, will not impact the Lt. Governor.
Here is his full statement:
"Obviously, we don't know what Ken Cuccinelli's intentions are. Lieutenant Governor Bolling has made clear that he intends to run for Governor in 2013 and we hope that Ken will be a part of our ticket. We think that would be best for the Republican Party.
"In 2009 Bob McDonnell and Bill Bolling gave the Republican Party a blueprint for victory and it all started with Bill's willingness to set aside his personal ambition and join with Bob McDonnell to form a united ticket. That worked well in 2009 and its the right approach in 2013." – Randy Marcus, Aide to Lt. Gov. Bill Bolling.
Cuccinelli supports officers fight for overtime pay
He is the author of the law that requires municipalities to begin paying their police officers at an earlier rate than what the federal government requires. So it is not a surprise that Attorney General Ken Cuccinelli supports a series of lawsuits filed across the Commonwealth by those police officers to receive back pay from localities that have ignored the law.
Rachel DePompa first broke the story on NBC12 in October. We followed up with a lengthy interview with the Attorney General to find out why he wrote the law in the first place, and what he thought about the decision of local governments not to follow that law.
As you might imagine, Cuccinelli had a very strong opinion.
Here is my story from NBC12:
RICHMOND (WWBT)- He is the author of a law that many local governments have ignored and may now be forced to pay back millions in overtime.
Attorney General Ken Cuccinelli has no regrets about writing the law that requires municipalities to pay overtime to police officers at an earlier rate than what the federal government requires.
He also is not surprised that some local leaders have chosen to ignore the law.
"The biggest lawbreaker in America is government," said Cuccinelli.
That's right, Virginia's Attorney General doesn't believe there is a misunderstanding, or a question about the law, he believes places like Richmond and Henrico knew their police officers were entitled to overtime pay at a certain rate and chose to ignore the law.
"There is a state law in place and there is a backstop of accountability," said Cuccinelli. "But that local government is going to be driven up to the backstop and the way that happens is in court."
That is why Cuccinelli supports police officers fighting for their back pay. He believes prior to the law, Virginia had a patchwork of standards that allowed police officers to be taken advantage of.
"We've set policy for employees in Virginia and the policy is frankly is not much different than saying everybody is going to be treated equally," Cuccinelli said.
read and see the rest of the story on NBC12.com.
You can see an extended clip from Cuccinelli on this topic below:
Cuccinelli compares Tea Party to Occupy movement
How close are the Tea Party and the Occupy movement? Believe it or not, Virginia Attorney General Ken Cuccinelli does draw some parallels. He believes both are based in the frustration over the power of special interest in politics, government and business. But that is about where the comparisons end.
Here is his assessment of the two movements:
Perhaps Cuccinelli's most provocative comment? (hits at about 2:20)
"I guess if you took away defecating in public, and disobeying the law and not getting permits, staying overnight and doing battle with police. If you take all that away and the intellectual differences than ya, I guess we are pretty much the same."
But the Attorney General offers areas where they have common goals, including making the budget process easier to understand and more accessible to the average person. He believes that is one example of how people could start to regain trust in their leaders.
Cuccinelli offers tepid support for Norment as Majority Leader
The Virginia Senate is something that Attorney General Ken Cuccinelli cares quite a bit about. Before he ascended to his current post, Cuccinelli spent eight years in the Senate carving out a reputation as a tenacious voice for conservative causes, while at the same time cruising to re-election in his Northern Virginia district.
So it is not a surprise that Cuccinelli campaigned hard for Senate republicans in their effort to capture that house and that he has an opinion about how they should conduct business now that they have a razor-thin majority.
Shortly after the election, Cuccinelli warned that his former comrades in the conservative wing of the Senate caucus not be ignored.
"It will be important to see how the conservatives are treated in the Senate GOP Caucus," he wrote on his facebook page. "What chairmanships and caucus leadership positions will conservatives have? What committee slots?"
At that point Cuccinelli did not know who the Republicans would elect as their Majority Leader. A few days later the caucus tapped Sen. Tommy Norment, a moderate, to the post. Norment was the Minority Leader. While Cuccinelli and Norment are both republicans, that aren't necessarily allies.
"Senator Norment and I have had our differences," Cuccinelli admitted during a wide-ranging interview Thursday morning.
While the Attorney General wasn't enthusiastic about the prospects of Norment leading the GOP, he conceded his personality may prove to be beneficial when wading the choppy waters of a 20-20 split.
"He has done this 20 years," said Cuccinelli. "He understands that it is going to be hard to keep that caucus together, not because they are dying to break apart, but because you can't give up one (vote)."
Cuccinelli is a powerful voice in the conservative wing of the party. He doesn't have a vote in the Senate anymore, but his support could make life easier for Senators who could face unsettled supporters hungry for their issues to be passed with a newfound majority.
When asked he couldn't, or wouldn't, come up with another member of the GOP caucus who might be able to manage the Senate better than Norment. Cuccinelli said that he and Norment are both "type-A" personalities which can be good and bad.
"If what you want is kumbaya consensus, type-A's aren't necessarily what you want for that role,' he said. "But we tend to be better cat herders, so there is kind of a trade-off there."
And as the General Assembly convenes, conservatives will want their voice heard. If there is a sense Norment isn't offering that, herding those cats may become difficult.
"I think the necessity of the situation is going to demand a level of diplomacy toward his own caucus, that is really going to push him from a leadership standpoint," said Cuccinelli. "I expect he will respond. Time will tell."
See an extended clip from my conversation with Attorney General Ken Cuccinelli below:
I also talked to the AG about 2012, the Virginia Senate Race and the prospects for his challenge to the Obama health care law in the Supreme Court. More on that soon on Decision Virginia.

Baseball Prospectus on Tyler Skaggs
Not sure if this is behind a pay wall, but a nice scouting article from Baseball Prospectus detailing some of the premier left-handed pitching prospects in the minors. The skinny on Skaggs is that he's got a prototypical pitcher's frame, a fastball that sits 89-93 mph that projects to be plus, a curveball that is already a legitimate plus pitch, and a changeup that is improving and shows a lot of potential. Essentially though, Skaggs is one of the best left-handed pitching prospects in the minors, in the company of the likes of Martin Perez (Rangers) and Mike Montgomery (Royals), who are very well-regarded prospects.

sweat chic wear
by haley sherif
Just because you're sweating it out at the gym, doesn't mean you need to wear torn up sweats and an over sized tee. Looking cute at the gym actually encourages me to work out. Sometimes looking at pictures of celebrities going to or coming from the gym can be discouraging, but they can also be inspiration style wise. While I wouldn't suggest using a Balenciga bag as a gym tote, I would take a cue from Nicole Richie and add a huge pair of sunnies to accessorize and a cute fitted tee.
I love chic work out wear because it makes it so much easier to transition from a work out to running errands (see Reese above) or coffee with a friend. I love Lulu Lemon athletic wear, it's not just comfortable, but I always get compliments whenever I wear it. I also love sneakers that make a little bit of a statement, by pink and black Nikes are the perfect addition to leggings and a tee for a run. either in the park or around the block for a latte. Just remember ladies, it's all about style and there's never a reason to slack anywhere in your wardrobe, there are always chic alternatives!

News: Cam'ron & Jim Jones Address Kanye West "Runaway" Remix Diss
Friday, Sep 24, 2010 5:22PM
Dipset's Cam'ron and Jim Jones have addressed the recent release of their "Runaway" remix which name drops Kanye West.
Despite calling out Ye and referencing Jay-Z by his "Jigga" moniker, Cam said there are no harsh feelings toward the former Roc-A-Fella Records labelmates.
"I ain't have nothing to say," Cam told radio host Angie Martinez. "Only thing I'm gonna say is a lot of people talking about I dissed Jay. I didn't diss Jay on the song. I didn't diss Jay on that song at all. I didn't say nothing about Jay. I haven't diss Jay in years. I don't have a relationship with Jay-Z or nothing but I'm from Harlem. I respect people getting money. Jay gets mad cake. I respect his hustle, his grind, so a lot of people saying I dissed Jay, I didn't diss Jay...I ain't got no problem with Kanye, man. I lied about something?" ("The Angie Martinez Show")
Jones added by saying Dipset is not trying to spark a beef toward Yeezy.
"Shout-outs to Kanye man," Jones added. "Don't nobody take it wrong. We here, we just having fun. It's hip-hop. Cam is probaby one of the best rappers that's been in this game for the past 10 years. We're having fun...He didn't diss him on the record, [Cam] just pointed something out." ("The Angie Martinez Show")
Last week, radio host Funkmaster Flex asked for Dipset member Juelz Santana's reaction to the record.
"To be honest, I really just heard the record like a fan, you know what I'm saying, like everybody else," Santana told radio personality Funkmaster Flex Thursday (September 16) night. "I ain't really know they did the record. Me, Cam and Jim have been speaking but they must have did that when they got together, just in the studio, you know what I mean, doing what they do. So I heard the record just like y'all. I was like, 'Wow,' it shouldn't really surprise people especially as far as Cam. Cam always said things as far as how he felt about Jay-Z and Kanye. He's never been the type of person that bites his tongue. Nah, I haven't seen any of them in the past couple days. I actually spoke to Kanye about a month and a half ago. He was good, he was talking about getting me down to Hawaii to work on his album..." (Hot 97)
The track dropped last week, days after West released his "Runaway" song.
Jim Jones and Cam'ron leaked a new song today (September 15) dissing Kanye West over the instrumental to "Runaway," a song Ye premiered this past Sunday at the MTV Video Music Awards. On the track Cam spits, "Kanye you a sucka n*gga/Dissed Dame [Dash], so my attitude is f*ck the n*gga/Stuck to Jigga. How you gon' live with that? Took the beat, now come get it back." (XXL Mag)

It was nice to go to the scrimmage but it left me feeling like this offense needs a lot of work. Tannehill, Moore, and Garrard all faced our teams number one defense. Tannehill was the best QB at the scrimmage. He's was the fan favorite to. Tannehill drew the loudest applause on his first pass which was incomplete deep center. It's clear Miami fans want someone who at least attempts to go big.
Most of the passes today seemed like they were outside the numbers from the top three QB's. That has me concerned because it seemed like our WR's couldn't get open in the middle. Also the WR's and quarterbacks didn't look like they were on the same page. There were two times I noticed Garrard seeing a soft spot in the defense and throwing the ball at it. The WR's were late recognizing what Garrard saw and the passes fell incomplete. To add injury to insult, one of those passes could of been a touchdown. Remember when Pennington and his WR's did extra work in the film room to get on the same page? That probably needs to be done once we declare the starting QB.
Our Oline looked over-matched. The running game was poor and the QB were getting harassed too much. Hopefully our front seven is just that good.
DC$ missed one of about 5 field goals.
Our special teams allowed two returns. (There was a flag on the first one) I was ecstatic seeing the returns until I realized these guys were going up against our very own coverage units...
Delvin faced the backups and looked really good. But he was the only QB not to face the starters so it's hard to grade him fairly with the other QB's. I do think he looks like a keeper. He challenged the middle of the field more than any other QB. I was actually impressed.
At the end of practice I got my football autographed from Long and Tannehill. I hope that ball becomes priceless one day.

Telecommunicators Week - April 13th - 19th
Date of News Release: 04/15/2008
(Hickory, KY) - April 13th - 19th marks National Public Safety Telecommunicators Week. The United States Congress approved this special week in 1993 in an effort to recognize the men and women who serve as public safety telecommunicators. Kentucky State Police in Mayfield would like to take this time to recognize the tireless efforts that all 15 telecommunicators give on a daily basis. "The telecommunications personnel at Kentucky State Police Post 1 are often times your first contact with the Kentucky State Police. Their skills as police telecommunicators are crucial to the delivery of police services to the public", states Trooper Dean Patterson, Public Affairs Officer at Post 1. "Without the work of these men and women, the quality of police services would change dramatically."
State wide, Kentucky State Police employees 181 telecommunicators. Although the telecommunicators are not as visible as the men and women who may arrive on the scene of emergencies, the telecommunicator's role has always been central to the operations of emergency personnel. Every day, State Police telecommunicators answer hundreds of emergency and non emergency calls. Often times, the effort of these men and women goes unnoticed. It is with pride that we honor each of the 15 Post 1 telecommunicators who serve our local communities as well as the other telecommunicators who serve other communities across the Commonwealth of Kentucky.

Baker's at the double for City reserves
6:19pm Tuesday 24th April 2012 in Bantams By Sports Desk
Bradford City reserves 2, Scunthorpe United reserves 1
Adam Baker celebrated his first professional contract by scoring both goals as City reserves beat Scunthorpe 2-1 in the Central League Division One East this afternoon.
The 18-year-old struck in both halves to earn the Bantams their seventh win of the season.
The home side featured three trialists, including midfielder Josh Windass, who has just been released by Huddersfield Town. His dad Dean was in the stands.
Baker's determination forced the opening goal, the striker chasing a long punt forward and holding off Niall Canavan to poke the ball away from keeper Josh Lillis and knock into the empty net.
Lillis denied him another with a reaction save but Baker had his second five minutes after the break. Trialist forward Joe Leesley fed the pass through for Baker to net from eight yards.
Scunthorpe pulled one back late on from Connor Jennings' header, and Matt Godden was denied an equaliser by an offside flag.
City Reserves: Annerson, Harrop, Bass, Windass, McGivern, Fisher, Rowe, Sellars, Leesley, Baker, Marshall. Subs: Brown, Nanje-Ngoe, Harrison, Swain, Tongue.

text: The interview covers the technical aspects of 99% of the Dwight possibilities included the Dwight/CP3 combinations. The highest chance of CP3 and Dwight being together are solely the Hawks. There is a higher chance of them playing separately, however. The interview boils down the technical cap aspects of all the trades. If the rockets want Howard, they may want to help the Clippers/Celtics trade (at a discount). I also think the Clips/celts trade are a GO.

"One awkward moment, though, during the game. Maybe you heard about it, maybe you saw it on one of the highlight reels, one awkward moment for Sarah Palin at the Yankee game. During the seventh inning, her daughter was knocked up by Alex Rodriguez." --David Letterman (Read about the controversy sparked by this joke)
"And with all this going on, did you see what Sarah Palin said yesterday? She made a speech in Alaska and she said that the money the federal government is sending to states to help bail out, well that's not good, because that's the federal government getting in there and trying to 'control people.' Yes that's right, Sarah, it's all about the Federal Reserve making your daughter use a condom." --Bill Maher
"It looks like a catfight is breaking out among the Republican Party's younger members, both of them, because Bristol Palin is on an abstinence tour, promoting abstinence. What a good person to do that. And she says abstinence is the only thing that works." --Bill Maher
"And some sad news. Bristol Palin, Sarah Palin's daughter, has broken up with babydaddy Levi Johnston. I was stunned when I heard. I mean, really, if two kids without a decent education and no jobs and a baby can't make it, what hope is there for the rest of us?" --Jay Leno
"Bristol Palin, remember Bristol Palin? Sarah Palin's knocked up daughter? She was going to marry the young hockey player, Levi. Remember Levi? Free Levi, I love Levi. Well, apparently Bristol and Levi broke up. Bristol said she wants her baby raised free of ignorance and backwoods superstition. But you can't stop Mom from visiting." -- Bill Maher
"Bristol Palin and Levi Johnson have broken up. That's right. That's right. And apparently it was not that big a surprise. Even the Russians saw it coming." -- David Letterman
"Another big bailout yesterday. Levi Johnson bailed out of his engagement to Sarah Palin's daughter. It's now officially confirmed that Bristol Palin has broken off her engagement to Levi Johnson, the father of her baby. Yeah. See, their relationship never evolved because they don't believe in evolution." -- Jay Leno
"In an interview with Fox News, Gov. Sarah Palin's daughter, 18-year-old Bristol Palin -- remember Bristol Palin, who had the baby? Well, she talked in the interview. She said, 'A year ago, I never would have thought I would become a mom or that my mom was going to be chosen to be a vice presidential candidate.' Oddly enough, both things happened because some guy failed to take the proper precautions." --Jay Leno
"This is true, according to a new report, I was reading this today in the paper, thousands of pregnant mothers in this country are planning to name their baby Barack. That's true. Yeah, after hearing this, Sarah Palin told Bristol, 'Don't even think about it.'" --Conan O'Brien
"Hey, some sad news. Bristol Palin, you know, the daughter of Governor Sarah Palin, and her fiance, Levi Johnston, have broken up. Well, who could have seen that coming? Ironically, you know what happened? She could see him with another girl from her front porch." --Jay Leno
"Hey, congratulations to Gov. Sarah Palin's daughter Bristol, who had her baby. They named the baby Tripp, which is better than the name Sarah Palin suggested. She wanted to call the kid Joe the Baby." --Jay Leno
"You know who is really, really happy that John McCain did not win last night? The boyfriend of Sarah Palin's daughter. He doesn't have to get married now. 'Whew, thank God!'" --Jay Leno
"Sarah Palin is going to drop the first puck at the Philadelphia Flyers' hockey game. Then Palin will spend the rest of the game trying to keep the hockey players out of her daughter's penalty box." --Conan O'Brien
"You know, they're watching this interview, this is the first time she's really sat down and talked. Political experts say that during the interview, she did a pretty good job convincing voters that she's qualified. Yeah, Palin says she has plenty of experience, and that her daughter has a little too much experience." --Conan O'Brien
"Did you see Governor Sarah Palin on the cover of Newsweek? Look, she's holding a shotgun. Holding a shotgun. This picture was taken right after she announced that guy would be marrying her pregnant daughter." --Jay Leno
"Experts say -- this is interesting -- that since Sarah Palin became the vice presidential nominee, there's been an actual spike in the sales of her style of eyeglasses. Gone way up. Yeah. Yeah, with Palin's glasses, you'll be able to see everything, except what the hell your teenage daughter's up to." --Conan O'Brien
"The Republican Convention is under way. The theme for tonight's Republican Convention is, 'Who is John McCain?' Tomorrow night's theme is, 'Who forgot to check if the Vice President's daughter is pregnant?'" --Conan O'Brien
"It's true, John McCain's running mate, Alaska Governor Sarah Palin, has revealed that her 17-year-old daughter is pregnant. Palin said, 'We should never have introduced her to John Edwards.'" --Conan O'Brien
"Governor Palin announced over the weekend that her 17-year-old unmarried daughter is five months pregnant. Oh, boy, you thought John Edwards was in trouble before, now he's really done it!" --Jay Leno
"It was an unplanned pregnancy, but the Palins say their daughter will marry the young man. He's a fellow high school student of hers. His name is Levi Johnston. They even found his MySpace page, which they pulled down immediately, but before they did we found out that he's a 'f***ing redneck,' is what he said, and another quote from him, 'I don't want kids.' Remember when the Republicans compared Barack Obama to Britney Spears? Now they've got their their own Jamie Lynn." --Jimmy Kimmel
"And we're learning more and more about Governor Palin. Apparently her daughter's name is Juno." --Jay Leno

As someone who hasn't made to a Georgia game at Sanford Stadium in about a decade, I'd like to ask for a little help for this coming Saturday. The Mrs and I are headed there (not a long drive) Saturday morning and have no plans to tailgate. We have tickets for Gate 5, Lower Level. What I'd appreciate finding out from the folks here that are better versed in the game day rituals is:
Where to park? Not too concerned about paying, more concerned about being within walking/stumbling distance, with a balance of getting out in a reasonable amount of time after the game's over. And you can bet for what she paid for these seats, we'll be there until all zeroes.
Where to pre-party/get sufficiently numb to prepare for what we're getting too used to seeing lately? Maybe parking downtown and doing a mini breakfast bar crawl is a good option?
Any other helpful tips and tactics you guys might have? Like I said, it's been quite some time since I made it to Athens on game day and back then I tailgated with a group of buddies. So I'm pretty much a neophyte all over again. All suggestions gratefully received.

SAVANNAH, Ga. (AP) - It hasn't been long since Mitch Davis left Savannah for college, and now his band has landed its biggest gig - a slot onstage during the Bonnaroo music festival in Tennessee.
The Savannah Morning News reports Davis is the lead singer for Staying For The Weekend, one of two bands chosen to play the festival this weekend after entering the Road To Roo contest by Sonicbids.
The band formed after Davis arrived at Belmont University in Nashville last year after graduating from Savannah Country Day School. Davis says the largest crowd his band has played for was about 150 people. Now it's among a Bonnaroo lineup that includes Paul McCartney and the Wu-Tang Clan.
Davis insists he's not nervous. "The more people, the more fun," he says.

Lawrence Bittaker & Roy Norris
Bittaker and Norris made their third foray on Labor Day, September 3. Cruising through Hermosa Beach, they spotted two girls seated on the bench at a bus stop, where Pier Avenue met Pacific Coast Highway. Fifteen-year-old Jackie Gilliam and 13-year-old Leah Lamp weren't waiting for the bus, but they seemed happy to accept a ride with no special destination in mind. Bittaker and Norris later told police the girls were also glad to accept Larry's offer to smoke a joint.
Lighting up, he passed the joint around and told his passengers that he was heading for the beach. Jackie and Leah challenged him moments later, as Bittaker turned away from the ocean and started driving northward, but he stalled them with excuses, claiming he merely wanted to find a safe place to park while they got high. The girls protested when Bittaker parked near a suburban tennis court. Leah started to open the door, but Norris was faster, swinging a sawed-off baseball bat against her skull.
A fierce struggle ensued. Bittaker waded in to help Norris, finally subduing the teenagers and trussing them with duct tape. Only when they were secured and silenced did he notice several tennis players watching from the nearby courts. Worried that someone might call the police, Bittaker gunned the van and sped away toward his hideout in the San Gabriel Mountains. But no one called the police. The witnesses returned to their tennis games, dismissing the strange incident.
Bittaker and Norris kept their latest hostages alive for nearly two days. They kept an audiotape of their rape and torture. Among other things, the tape captured Norris raping Jackie Gilliam, demanding that she play the role of a cousin who was the object of some of his sexual fantasies.
Tired of the game and running dangerously late for work, Bittaker repeated his trick with the ice pick, stabbing Gilliam in both ears. As with Andrea Hall, it made her scream but failed to kill her, so the rapists took turns strangling Jackie to death. Afterward, they turned on Lamp, Bittaker squeezing her throat while Norris pounded her head seven times with a sledgehammer. They pitched their victims off a cliff, with the ice pick still imbedded in Jackie Gilliam's skull.
On Sunday, September 30, they selected Shirley Sanders, an Oregon resident visiting her father in Manhattan Beach. When she declined a lift in Murder Mack, they sprayed Sanders with chemical mace and dragged her kicking from the sidewalk. Both men raped her in the van, but they were careless and she escaped. Sanders reported the assault, but she could not identify her assailants. She did not remember the license plate. Unable to pursue the matter further, she returned to Oregon.

The inevitable sugar rush of the holidays poses a challenge for people living with diabetes, but it's not so different from the pressure felt by everyone this time of year.
"Everyone is faced with millions of cookies and mountains of desserts and things of that nature, so I think it's really challenges that anybody else faces," said Registered Dietician Leslie Lawton. She's also a Certified Diabetes Educator, affiliated with UPMC Hamot.
The National Diabetes Education Program is an ally for people with diabetes, and they're promoting their "Just One Step" initiative, to help patients set goals and track progress online.
It's a proven weight management technique.
"Everyone's usually got access to their computer, and that might be a more easy resource to access," Lawton said. "I think it could help with the accountability as well."
It's here just in time to jump start those New Years resolutions, and the key is to set small, sustainable goals.
"They're not gonna try to make three million changes all at one time if they plan on being successful," said Lawton, "so whether it's trying to change your health or any other change you make in your life, it's gonna be a gradual step process, and it's going to be one thing at a time."
You can set both food and activity- related goals on the site, to keep you on track through the holiday season.
To keep a balanced diet, you don't have to stick to fruits and vegetables. You can still enjoy your favorite holiday goodies, and, in fact, restricting yourself could actually be worse.
"There are no illegal foods," said Lawton, 'it's more a matter of how it fits into the overall picture, and I'm a big advocate of encouraging people to avoid being overly restrictive, because if you push that pendulum one direction, it inevitably might come back the other way."
Of course you want to make sure you keep close tabs on blood sugar levels, when indulging in the holiday spirit.
And Lawton has one more piece of advice, regardless of if you have diabetes:
"Nourish yourself with the company of loved ones. Keep in mind there are other ways to nourish yourself than just food at the holidays."
