Rich Van Wyk/Eyewitness News
Indianapolis - The death of a 13-year-old motorcycle racer at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway is getting nationwide attention.
Peter Lenz of Vancouver, Washington, was a rising star in the sport. Along with admiration for his accomplishments, there are questions as to whether someone so young should be in a sport so fast and dangerous.
At nine years old, Peter Lenz was already on the winners' stand, looking barely big enough to ride a bicycle. But on the race track he was fast and fierce, setting track records at 90 miles an hour at age ten. He had 18 national and regional championships by the age of 13.
See video of Lenz racing in previous competitions.
Lenz died Sunday after falling during a warm-up lap and being struck by another rider. It was the first death at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway in seven years. The boy who struck him, 12-year-old Xavier Zayat of Flushing, N.Y., was not hurt.
Professional MotoGP racer Nicky Hayden had seen the much younger rising star.
"This is our sport. He chose to do it. He knew the consequences," said Hayden.
But should someone so young be allowed to compete in a sport where the consequences are so high? It's debatable, says rider, collector and fan Dan Lampman.
"Where does the cut-off occur? Maturity and decision-making is different with everybody," said Lampman.
Youngsters racing motorcycles and a 14-year-old Dutch girl sailing alone around the world are extreme examples of sports where parents and coaches expect more from children at younger ages.
"It's subjecting our kids to things like concussions in football, too much training in sports like swimming and track, it all comes into play," said Dr. Douglas McKeag, IU Center for Sports Medicine director.
Dr. McKeag says that overall, today's child athletes are better off than their parents were because of better rules and equipment protecting them.
"They are safe; more people watching them and the level of sophistication surrounding kids sports is much higher than it's ever been," said McKeag.
Yet in all kids' sports, the doctor says most all deaths are caused by unfortunate incidents for which there is no protection. Overheating is another factor leading to athlete deaths.
Sadly, Peter Lenz perished in an accident that witnesses say neither he or his fellow racers could avoid.
"Our children today are maturing earlier. They're bigger; obviously, unfortunately, they're also fatter. So in sports where size is a priority, they are being exposed to forces that we weren't exposed to when we were kids," said Dr. McKeag.
No formal investigation
The US Grand Prix Racers Union does not plan to hold a formal investigation into the death of Peter Lenz.
Stewart Aitken-Cade, a spokesman for the sanctioning body, says the union will discuss ways to make the sport safer. He also says safety measures will be reviewed.
Aitken-Cade says teen riders must have two years of racing experience, verified by the league, and older riders help mentor the younger ones.
Messages of sympathy
More than a thousand messages of sympathy and condolences were posted on the Facebook page of 13-year-old Peter Lenz.
Lenz's father sent out a message to fans on his son's Facebook page saying Peter "passed doing what he loved and had his go fast face on as he pulled onto the track. The world lost one of its brightest lights."
Witnesses say Peter Lenz was waving his arms to warn other riders he was down when he was hit by another rider.
Emergency crews attempted CPR on Lenz at the track. He was taken to Methodist where he was pronounced dead.
"He was one of my really good friends, yeah, Peter Lenz he was. I have know him for the last few years and he has been in my motor home all weekend chit-chattin' about the track," said Colin Edwards, MotoGP rider.
Statement from Janice Logan, Oregon Motorcycle Road Racing Association:
"Peter Lenz began racing with the Oregon Motorcycle Road Racing Association in 2005, at the age of 8. He raced "Pocketbikes" at the beginning. These are the little mini motorcycles that were so popular around the time. The main difference between those for sale at local car parts stores and the ones that were raced at PIR, was the ones at PIR were built very specifically for racing, and very technical and mechanically impressive.
Peter currently holds Expert License #46 with the Oregon Motorcycle Road Racing Association. In 2009, Peter raced with OMRRA as part of the USGPRU National series. Peter raced last Sunday, on August 22nd at Portland International Raceway, as part of the West Coast series of the USGPRU racing series. He finished 2nd in the MD250 race, and 3rd in the Moto 3 race.
Peter was a very well liked, and extremely skilled racer. Our Association sends its very deepest condolences to the Lenz family, and all of his racing friends and fans."

News: Black Rob Calls Diddy Out, "They Used The 'Black Rob Report' As A Spring Board For The Biggie 'Duet' Album" [Video]
Thursday, Aug 26, 2010 11:20AM
Former Bad Boy Records artist Black Rob has stepped up and called out ex-boss Diddy for shady business practices while he was employed at his label.
Rob also questioned why Diddy never went to visit him during a brief jail stint.
"As far as all the people at Bad Boy, nobody reached out to me [when I was in jail] because all it takes is the press of a button, department of corrections, you know my name and birthday, I used to work here," Black Rob said in an interview. "When I heard this n*gga went to see [Lil] Wayne in jail and you ain't come and see BR? After all the years we spent together? Like, that sh*t didn't mean nothing to you, dawg? You actually think I'm not your man? So that right there, told me, that n*gga was never my man. You had like 50 employees, you ain't even have to write the letter -- Puff wasn't the one doing the records with me, he was just the last word. 'Good record. I like that, I wanna get on that.' He's not in the studio, 20 hours, 15 hours with me, never. It wasn't no love over there man. It wasn't no love. Dudes was just using, just trying to use me...They used the Black Rob Report as a spring board for the Biggie duet album. Puff wasn't doing nothing. He ain't have no records out. It was dry, everybody was going." (This Is 50)
Last June Rob said he was disappointed with Puff distancing himself from him while completing a jail sentence.
"Nah," Rob said when asked if he still had a relationship with Bad Boy. "If you tell me you love me, you tell me you my man, then I'ma take that, I'ma run with that. You feel me? So when something happens to me and you turn your back on me regardless of the situation, regardless of what we're going through. I don't appreciate that, I don't respect that. Because if you're my man, I'm always gonna be your man unless you flip on me. I was under the assumption I was family. If you follow Black Rob's career, you know I been through a whole bunch. When the album's getting ready to come out, I'm either in jail or somewhere I'm not supposed to be. I'm not blaming Bad Boy, let me set the record straight, I'm not blaming P. Diddy -- I did that, that was me. I have no hatred..." (BET)
Despite his feelings toward Diddy, Rob recently said he would consider re-teaming with his ex-label.
"I would sign to Bad Boy again. I would sign to them again if push came to shove. I would sign a contract with Bad Boy again, 'cause now I know the business side of everything. I can't get jerked. Not saying that Puff jerked me, but now I know the business side so I can go at this a little bit different now. I can go in there with some knowledge, knowing that you can do this and I can do this, and you can't do this...I want this, this what I'm supposed to have, where's it at?" (Hip Hop DX)
Despite the claims, Puff recently denied ever doing any shady business with his artists.
"There's an off perception that needs to be addressed about me that I have ever robbed somebody or mistreated somebody. Or tried to be ruthless or whatever in this game. Like, all this year I've heard people say, 'Where's Carl Thomas, where's Black Rob, where's G.Dep? Where are these artists?' And for some reason they go ahead and equate that, cause those artists aren't with me, that I've done something wrong or malicious or conniving. It's something that I do have a problem with because they don't have no proof that I've ever done nothing like that." (Rap Radar)

Alexa von Tobel, CFP, Founder & CEO of LearnVest.com and New York Times-bestselling author of Financially Fearless, shares her must-know money tips. See Alexa on the show!
The world of personal finance is full of confusing and complicated jargon. That's one of the reasons why I developed LearnVest.com, to help people feel amazing about their money and to make financial planning affordable, accessible and even delightful.
My financial tips are all things I would do myself—we have a limited amount of time, so it's important to put any tricks into good use! Below are five of my favorite insider tips:
Be cautious.
There are many financial institutions who put their customers first and offer great service. But some bank tellers work on commission. Remember that not all bank employees are financial experts, but some are actually salespeople. The more bank products they sell, the more they make. Always do your homework and speak to an unbiased expert before making any big decisions!
Watch out for fees.
Make sure you track all of your expenses (with a tool like LearnVest's Money Center) so you're aware of any unnecessary fees you're paying for. Some of the worst offenders? "Maintenance fees" (if you're not meeting an account minimum) or out-of-network ATM fees. Read the fine print and stay up-to-date on your bank's policies.
If it sounds too good to be true…
Understand what you're getting into when you sign up for a new credit card. Promotional credit card offers (those with 0% interest, for example) can be a great tool to postpone interest. But they may want you to spend a certain amount within a particular time frame in order to be rewarded. And watch out for accrued interest. If you don't think you can pay off your credit card before the intro period ends, you may be subject to pay the regular interest rate on your entire transfer (not just what you have left to pay).
Consider biweekly mortgage payments.
Over the course of a year, if you make your mortgage payments every two weeks instead of every month, you will greatly accelerate your pay down. Over the year, you end up making 13 monthly payments instead of 12, which in turn helps you pay your mortgage down faster and get out of debt quicker while paying less in total interest. As a quick example: Let's say your original mortgage amount is $200k, with an interest rate of 4.5%. Over the course of 30 years, if you pay bi-weekly instead of monthly, you will save over $27k in interest, and you'll pay off the mortgage in about 25.7 years.
Tackle credit card debt faster.
Apply the same trick to credit cards. While you get a statement once a month, you accumulate interest daily. If split your payment amount in two, pay part of it early in the month and the rest by the normal due date. You'll still be paying the same amount, but it can help shave off interest and save money when your budget is tight!

An investment in higher education may be the most important purchase Hoosiers ever make. Investing in a college degree pays off in terms of more job opportunities and higher earnings, but the benefits extend far beyond financial returns. The advantages include increased social mobility, greater civic involvement, improved health and wellness and a higher standard of living.
Despite the undeniable benefits of higher education, some have begun to question whether college is still worth it in response to rising tuition costs, growing student debt and anecdotes about graduates who can't find a job. Though these concerns are understandable, it's clear by every meaningful measure that individuals with education beyond high school today are better off than those without it.
College graduates earn an average of $1 million more over their lifetimes and experience half the unemployment risk of those with only a high school diploma. As a group, college degree-holders represent a better prepared workforce that increases Indiana's ability to attract outside investment, create jobs and spur new innovation. Moreover, as the state's college graduates increase their standard of living, Indiana's per capita income and tax revenues grow as well, paving the way for a higher standard of living for all Hoosiers.
The Indiana Commission for Higher Education's new "Return on Investment" report shows these realities in compelling detail. The report, available online at www.che.in.gov, is designed to empower students and families to make more informed decisions as they consider their higher education options. Through consumer-friendly profiles of Indiana's colleges and universities, the report provides essential information about the average cost students will pay for college, the level of debt they incur, which industries graduates are likely to be employed in and what their earnings are likely to be over time depending on their program of study.

Orient Star Automatic without Power Reserve in Full Size. The dial looks really great, a good looking alternative to the power reserve model. Maybe one could do without the white frame around the date window, or with a thinner line, or even better, with a matching blue date disk. But now I am in full WIS mode... :-)

Curiously, though Ruger named the gun the Model 44, I don't believe they marked any of them with that name. Every one that I've seen has been stamped "Ruger Carbine .44 Magnum Cal." in two lines, on the left side of the receiver. (Note: These guns are not to be confused with the newer Model 99/44 Deerfield Carbine, which I consider inferior to the original.)
To say this little rifle is extremely handy and effective is putting it mildly. I know this from much experience, because this is the gun I started deer hunting with, and it's the only deer rifle I owned for about two decades. Between Dad and me, we have taken more than twenty deer and at least seven hogs with our carbines, in addition to all kinds of smaller game. And the best part is, we never lost one that we hit.
These rifles are compact, light, handy, and deadly on game, but like any machine, they require some maintenance. Normal cleaning of the bore is the easy part, and naturally the gun should be wiped down with an oily rag from time to time. It should be pulled from the stock at least once per season, and after each time it's exposed to wet weather.
With long use, thorough cleaning of the gas port and piston will be required, and this article will help you accomplish that.
I have chosen to use two guns in this article, a very early one and another of more recent manufacture. I was very careful to keep track of the parts for each gun - you don't want to mix up these parts. In most cases, you should only have one gun apart at a time.

TS Seduction
Shemale dommes screw their male slaves.
TS Seduction Overview
TS Seduction is produced by the same people who run Men in Pain (which is a fabulous site) so they know about female domination. Theyve decided to expand their domain into shemale domination and when I first saw the site I was terribly excited. I used to love MiP and the idea of a shemale version was a thrill. Its a niche thats vastly underserved and its nice to see someone making an effort to fill that gap.
Members Area of the TS Seduction Site
Not surprisingly the inside looks exactly the same as the tour. You can choose between the expanded view where they show 10-13 pictures from each set or a brief view with just one picture and a short description. I like to see all the pictures to get a good idea of what I can expect. Each scene comes with a picture gallery and a video that you can stream or download. There are 175-300 pictures per gallery and the videos run 30-60 minutes depending on the setup.
They try to tell stories at TS Seduction and if you commit yourself to watching the exposition I think youll find that the scene is even hotter. One of the most recent updates begins with two coworkers in the break room making coffee. The shemale tells the guy she knows of a room in the basement that no one else knows about where they could have a little private time. They do a little more flirting and then he agrees to go downstairs with her. When they arrive the domme inside her takes over and all of a sudden hes licking her toes and begging to have the privilege of sucking her cock.
TS Seduction is home to one of my favorite shemale sex scenes of all time. It stars a beauty named Mandy Mitchell and shes playing a hypno therapist who helps her patient relieve his stress by fucking him while hes under her spell. Everything about the scene is perfect. Mandy is good looking and all natural with nice A cup tits. The guy is passionate about his performance and he has no trouble taking her cock deep in his ass. Theres a hot sixty nine, she feeds her cock down his throat and then they fuck doggy style and missionary. The sound may be the best part of the scene. Hearing her cock slide into his ass over and over is fantastic and listening to her berate him is even hotter.
One of the best elements of TS Seduction is the verbal chastising the dommes give their slaves. They spend most of the scene telling the guys what worthless sluts they are and it feeds into the domination/submission vibe theyre going for. As someone that really digs that kind sexual interaction I can tell you that it adds immensely to the scene. There are so many shemale sites where the models only speak Spanish and it eliminates the enjoyment of anything aural; here they all speak English and theyre adept at humiliating the guys.
When they find a model they like at TS Seduction they tend to bring her back over and over again. There are currently 52 scenes and no more than 20 shemale dommes in those scenes. Some girls have come back for six or seven scenes and they tend to be the best performers. Youll probably recognize some of the names, including Gia Darling, La Cherry Spice and Mia Isabella. Most scenes are filmed in San Francisco but occasionally they add one that was filmed in Brazil and theyve been pretty good about bringing in well known babes like Carla Novaes.
TS Seduction is the best shemale domination site on the web. It starts with the models, most of whom are flawless and it continues with the high production values, which include HD videos and high resolution photos. The attitude is the most important thing here and the dommes really know how to abuse a man. They treat the male models like crap, taking from them whatever they desire and on occasion inflicting pain (although this isnt a bondage site). All fans of shemales fucking guys and shemale domme must join.

An Iraqi delegation from the Kurdish north has been on a whirlwind tour of the Duluth area for nearly a week. Continue Reading
It's nice Morgan can be so upbeat.
Seems odd to me all the delegates seem to be involved with Children. I recall the Muslim Mantra of Americans being infidels (dictionary.com/noun 1. (c))
Are they going back to tell the children…..'yes, American Christians and Jews etc. are Fine people and we should love and accept them'? Doubt it.
The comment about WLSSD made me laugh out loud. It's 2010 for God's sake (YES GOD) and they needed to come to America to learn about recycling and trash burning? Oh please.
Most of all I am recalling the 20 something Muslim who came here to Socialize and learn how to fly an American plane. Where did That get us? HIJACKED!!!!! That's where.
Yeah Muslims, pick a Sister City real close to the Canadian Border. Good reason to Visit now that we are 'Sista's'….and just a 3 hour drive from the Mall of America where you can nail a thousand more of our women and children while your being in your sister city isn't being questioned.
Sorry….I am not Welcoming them after One of the St. Scholastica students here on a Pass gave such a Radical interview about his views on America. Talk about biting the hand that is feeding him…..Sheesh!!!!
BTW….are they going to England, Norway and Ireland to find out how They dispose of their garbage? ROFL
Like or Dislike: 0 0
Forgot to note….
I hope the Muslims didn't learn some good ol' Minnesota Nice colloquialisms to 'fit in better'….like….'ya sure, ya betcha' and how to throw together a five ingredient 'hotdish' for socializing here….
Aw shucks….I just gave them the answers to the Minnesota Resident 'quiz'.
Like or Dislike: 0 0
There are American Muslims as well, how about Kieth Ellison? Cross cultural connections are what America is all about.
Like or Dislike: 0 0
I'm not talking about 46 year old Americans born and raised here who happen to have Muslim backgrounds. Forty six years ago we were not in the 'state' we are now in with Iran, Afghanistan, Pakistan Muslims….and I think you Know that.
I am talking about the New Muslims who come to America to Infiltrate our Universities as the arrogant Muslim Student from St. Scholastica who gave the America bashing interview to the DNT after he was given a Pass to Study here.
I am talking about the New Muslim who came to America Specifically to Socialize and take FLYING LESSONS which were subsequently USED to HIJACK our airplanes and DESTROY the twin towers, cause destruction to the Pentagon and caused the deaths of too many Americans….including those passengers who downed a hijacked flight to avoid MORE death and destruction.
Do You think if the airplane instructor had Any Idea what his Muslim student was up to he would have given him flying lessons? Just how would the instructor know the difference between an Honorable Muslim and a Terrorist Muslim?
When you can Guarantee the Intentions of Any Muslim picking our brains on American Soil….I'll pay attention to what you have to say. In the meantime, once burned (to a CRISP in FLAMES), twice shy…..
Like or Dislike: 0 0
And gee, I wonder why the news just indicated the Terrorist Level in Europe is at another HIGH and Americans should pay attention to their surroundings and be on alert…..(but it's still okay to Travel over there if you wish….Yeah…RIGHT)

While we're at it…..here's some Interesting Doubletalk regarding curriculum in a Muslim school on American soil…..Just enter Kurdish Muslims in your browser and you will find this and a wealth of Other info.

Mets, Yankees, fans, bloggers, media guys … we were all better served by not having nine more innings of baseball to chew over last night, and not just because the weather clock seemed to have suddenly turned six weeks backwards.
The Mets held their meeting, as teams do. The Mets said the meeting was good, as teams do. The manager said things will turn around, as managers do. The general manager said he had faith in the manager, as general managers do. The guy who said things he shouldn't have said his remarks were taken out of context, as guys who say things they shouldn't have said do.
This is baseball kabuki in times of trouble, and it neither means much of anything nor is a particularly accurate representation of reality. Very few team meetings ever solve anything, and the Mets took a long time to reach the same conclusion every team that holds a team meeting reaches: Now we know what we need to do, we found that out as a family, and we're going to tell you guys less. Willie Randolph said his faith in his team is unshaken, and I suppose a more-charitable person than me might admire a faith so strong that it's unshaken by a streak of mediocrity that lasts 150 games. You also had to admire Willie's brass, in talking to an oddly gentle Mike and the Mad Dog, in edging right up to saying Billy Wagner had been misquoted without actually going there. That's hard to say when the quote is taken from videotape, but again, Willie's faith is a powerful thing. Omar Minaya's faith in Willie, we can all guess, is somewhat less powerful, but that drama is still playing out. Oh, and through the healing power of jock magic, Billy Wagner's callout of Carlos Delgado was transformed into an oblique criticism of the media. He meant the pesky reporters, and we're all dummies for not getting what he wasn't saying. Oh, and he's not a racist. I don't think many people thought he was a racist, but making that an issue was a clever way to redirect the conversation away from whether or not his being a loose cannon is a problem, which is a tougher debate to table.
If all this makes you tired, me too. But that's not entirely a bad thing. It was good to have 24 hours to cool off before the players' meeting, and good to have 20-odd hours more before a pitch is thrown in anger once again. By noontime I venture all involved will be heartily sick of Thursday and its aftermath, and perhaps ready to move on.
So hey, there'll be baseball in a few hours. Mets-Yankees, pretty exciting. Big crowd. Relax, have a ball out here. This game's fun, OK? Fun, goddamn it.


text: Just heard this awesome interview with Aaron Maybin from a draft site. Too bad he didn't stay for one more year...hopefully it works out!! I think coming back wouldn't have hurt considering his size. But he is supposed to be a first round pick, some say top 10 so I guess you can't kill him. Maurice Evans is the one who REALLY should have stayed!

Our Community
Miles Toyota is more than just your local Toyota customer centre. We know that working within our community will make a difference, making a better tomorrow start today. We have always enjoyed supporting our local community, and have an on-going relationship with a number of local non-profit organisations.
We proudly support local organisations that are trying to make a difference in our community, including organisations such as those listed below.
Ronald McDonald House
Ronald McDonald House South Island Trust is an independent registered charitable trust established to help and support South Island children and their families.
The Trust is managed by a voluntary Board of Trustees, a small staff and many volunteers.
"Miles Toyota has been a fervent support of Ronald McDonald House South Island since the first day we opened our doors. Thanks to their generosity, such as sponsoring our 'Cloud Mobile' and one of the rooms at Ronald McDonald House each year, we have been able to support many more South Island families, whose worlds have been turned upside down by childhood injury and illness.
Over the years, we've come to consider the team at Miles Toyota as more than supporters - rather, they're family. They're the ones we can invariably turn to when we need a team to roll up their sleeves and get stuck into a task, whether it be helping with a fundraiser or volunteering as part of our Family Dinner Programme.
From all of our hearts and those of the numerous families which you have helped - thank you!"
Meri Wynen, Fundraising Manager, Ronald McDonald House South Island
Miles Toyota is proud to have sponsored Ronald McDonald House South Island right from day one.

The Miles Toyota Stand at AMI Stadium
Through the 'Miles Toyota Stand' at AMI Stadium, our aim is to support local events and make possible healthy activities for our local community. We're proud to be involved with the Christchurch Stadium Trust in the pursuit of encouraging healthy activities for our younger generations!
The 'south stand' is a covered area that seats a number of spectators as well as team coaches and the media.
The Christchurch Airport Marathon
Inspired by the 1974 Commonwealth Games marathon, the Christchurch Airport Marathon event is renowned as one of the fastest courses in the world. But it is also one of the most scenic and supportive.
In the interests of supporting healthy activities in our community, we're very happy to sponsor each year's Christchurch Airport Marathon.
Find out more on the Christchurch Airport Marathon website.
Further Community Support
Rangiora High First XV Rugby
Miles Toyota believes in helping to encourage healthy sport activity amongst Christchurch youth.
That's why we're proud to get behind great teams such as the Rangiora First XV rugby team and their rugby club.
The rugby club has 6 competitive rugby sides and a player development academy alongside its 1st XV.
Rutherford's Den
Miles Toyota is happy to support Rutherford's Den, a charitable trust that seeks to honour Sir Ernest Rutherford's achievements and life work.
While the 'Den' itself sadly closed following the Christchurch earthquake, the learning experience continues elsewhere through classroom programmes in schools throughout Canterbury.
We're excited to be part of this educational wonder and to help the trust stay mobile we've provided Rutherford's Den with the use of a Hiace ZL diesel.
The Volunteer Army Foundation
The Volunteer Army Foundation (VAF) exists to promote, support and facilitate youth engagement.
VAF was created by the people who started and led the Student Volunteer Army (SVA) in response to the devastating 2010-11 Christchurch Earthquakes. They specialise in getting young people to show up and care.
Malvern Health Trust
- Southbridge School
- Harewood School
- St. Andrew's College
- Rangiora First XV (pictured above)
Unfortunately due to an overwhelming request from a variety of admirable groups, we are unable to fulfill all sponsorship requests. To assist us with these applications we have established some guidelines which we ask you to consider before submitting a request.

Colorado Springs, CO (SportsNetwork.com) - Tre' Coggins tallied 17 points and three steals to lift the Air Force Falcons to a 62-52 victory over the UC Riverside Highlanders in a non-conference tilt at Clune Arena.
Max Yon added 10 points, seven rebounds and four assists for Air Force (6-4). Justin Hammonds grabbed a team-high eight rebounds to help the Falcons pick up their third consecutive win.
Taylor Johns recorded a double-double with 14 points and 12 rebounds for UC Riverside (3-5), but he was also guilty of six of the team's 20 turnovers.
Both sides struggled offensively in the first half. Air Force shot just 30 percent from the floor while the Highlanders connected on only 36 percent of their field goal attempts in the opening 20 minutes of action. The Falcons outscored UC Riverside, 8-2, in second chance points to take a narrow, 26-23, lead into the intermission.
Despite shooting 42.9 percent from the field and converting 9-of-12 attempts at the free-throw line after the break, UC Riverside trailed for the entire second half of the contest. Air Force was limited to 28.1 percent efficiency from the floor in the second period, but knocked down 14-of-19 at the charity stripe to extend its advantage.
The Falcons overcame their 6-of-27 clip from behind the 3-point line by winning the rebounding battle, 46-35.

If you ever got to take a look at the notepad I take to all my meetings at work, you will see that I have created more Cardinal lineups than TLR ever could, even if he had been on Bath Salts his entire career.
One of the best parts about making a lineup is cherry picking SSS stats from the previous year, YTD or the last 2 weeks and using them as justification. YOU GUYS, DID YOU KNOW THAT MATT CARPENTER HIT 66.7% OF HIS HOMERS FROM THE 7 HOLE LAST YEAR? The other is that you don't have to consider defensive competency and you can put as much weight as you damn well please on things like Clutchitude, GIDP rates (if not for this, Yadi would be batting 2nd for my hypothetical team), alternating L/R, etc.
Here is my topsecret 2013 lineup which would guarantee 105 wins. It assumes no injuries during ST, and also assumes that Matt Carpenter can play 2B at least as good as Skip Schumacher. It also assumes that the club has more to gain by seeing what Carpenter can do with a full time job than they would gain by having him available to spell LF, RF, 3B, 2B and 1B.
1 Jon Jay L/CF (.373 2012 OBP)
2 Allen Craig R/1B (swoon)
3 Carlos Beltran S/RF (only here because he is a switch hitter)
4 Yadier Molina R/C(Neck Tattoos, Leader, .500 2012 SLG and LegoHead K'd too much last year)
5 Matt Holliday R/LF ("He'd be hitting 3rd or 4th for almost any other team" "No doubt about that, Al")
6 Matt Carpenter L/2B (Lefty Righty fetish again, and to avoid the gag reflex from typing Descalso)
7 David Freese R/3B (This guy needs to get another three or so World Series saving hits. He's getting a bit stale)
8 Rafael Furcal S/SS (It's going to be awesome when he doesn't get hurt or suck this year)
Additional Note: I want to pencil in Craig and Taveras into the 3 and 4 slots for the next 7 years.

Depending On You Lyrics
By Tom Petty
I ain't ever gonna let you down
All you gotta do is trust me
I would never make you some clown
Baby why won't you trust me
You give up so easily, I don't know why you can't see
I'm depending on you, don't let me down
I'm depending on you
Baby if you can't change the world
Maybe you should just change yourself
You used to be such a sweet young girl
Why you wanna be someone else?
You give up so easily
I don't know why you can't see
I'm depending on you
Is it too late now?
Lyrics taken from http://www.lyricsmode.com/lyrics/t/tom_petty/depending_on_you.html

Bio and Links
When I was young, my mother had a shoe box and a shirt size gift box full of photos that she kept in the linen closet. Every so often, I would ask if we could get them out and go through them. We would sit at the kitchen table with the photos in a heap. My sisters and I would ask who the people were, and Mom would tell us about them. That was probably what first sparked my interest in genealogy.
I began actively digging for information to put my family tree together in 1981. My Aunt Frances Herbold had been at it for decades by that time. A lot of time and legwork was involved when she was doing her work. There was no Internet. She wrote scores of letters to people, asking for information. She must have spent hours and hours looking through old rolls of microfilm, which could easily cause a person to go blind or insane, or both. Aunt Frances, God bless her, furnished me with a bare bones genealogy to start with. When she passed away, my Uncle sent all of her genealogy materials to me.
Many years passed, and little by little my family tree grew. Then one day I was watching the aftermath of Hurricane Katrina on CNN. I was horrified to see the devastation, but what struck me most was that so many people had lost every picture, every slip and scrap of paper they ever had. I thought of all the family photos, letters and documents I had accumulated over the years. It was hard for me to imagine I could experience such a loss, but it got me started looking for a way to preserve and share these things with others who might be interested.
A short time later, I discovered findagrave. While I haven't posted everything, a large part of my family tree is here. Findagrave is a wonderful place to preserve and share information and photos and to honor those who came before us. That is the reason I do what I do here. I have also met a lot of new cousins here.
My husband and I live just north of Seattle, Washington. I have adopted Holyrood Catholic Cemetery as the one I work on almost exclusively now. I finished entering the names, burial dates and grave locations (from the Catholic Cemetery website) for all of the burials there in late February, 2012. Now I'm working on taking and posting grave photos. As of

of the memorial pages at Holyrood include grave photos. When people contact me with additional information, requests for transfers or photo requests, that's when I look for more information on a person or surname, including obituaries.
If you have suggestions or requests for transfers, please contact me using the "Edit" tab toward the top right hand corner of the person's memorial page. Select the first option you see; then tell me what you would like for me to do. Making your request this way ensures that I have all the information I need to fulfill your request. Please keep in mind that I will add any information or corrections you send me, but I will also credit you as the contributor of that information. If you don't have a findagrave ID, then I will use your email address when giving you credit as the contributor.
I love taking grave photos at Holyrood. You can contact me directly if you would like for me to get a grave photo, or you can make your photo request from a person's memorial page. If you see an inferior grave photo that I have taken, feel free to ask me to try to get a better one, and I will.
It's not about the numbers with me. It's about trying to help people find their loved ones. I hate to think that anyone is forgotten. It is, as I said before, about memorializing and honoring those who have gone before us. I would like nothing more than to see all memorial pages in the loving care of family members.

RE: Snohomish County
We think we have the Evergreen cemetery completed as far as pictures taken. Still will need many hours to set up memorials. We also have the other cemeteries in the county close to having pictures taken for all Headstones. I have about 1,800 pictures to take at GAR. As you have seen, I'm working on it now. We have gotten an interesting problem at View Crest Abbey, that Kathy, Tami and I am working on. We have maybe 1,500 to 2,000 hours of work, but we still hope to complete before the end of this year. That is my dream to complete Phase I this year and then shift into Phase II which is to find the 10,000 to 15,000 unmarked graves in the county. That will take a few years. The older section, as you know at GAR is a mess. LOL If you want to meet, Kathy and I will be at the Evergreen Office working on making a list for VCA.
Love and Light

Thank you so much. He was my uncle. My mother 95 and one brother Ed 93 are still living. I either had photos or could get the other 8 who have passed on find a grave. This was the only one with no photo.
Thanks again.

Drug Treatment for Teens
If you're the parent of a teen who's using drugs and/or alcohol, it's understood that you'll do anything you can to help. Finding a treatment program is probably the best thing you can do for your teen and yourself. But sometimes finding a program that caters to the needs of teens can be a hard task. To make it a little easier, we're highlighting a few great drug programs for teens.
Support Groups
If you feel your teen needs only a nudge in the right direction to stop using drugs or alcohol, support groups may work. However, participation in groups of these sorts is strictly voluntary, which means you can't force your teen into treatment, as you could with some others. If you feel your teen would do well in a support group, here are a few for you to check out:
Alcoholics Anonymous
P.O. Box 459
Grand Central Station
New York, NY 10163
(212) 870-3400
Alcoholics Anonymous (AA) is a program geared toward recovering alcoholics. The members meet in groups, ranging from only a few to hundreds of people, to help each other beat alcoholism. By sharing their experiences, strengths and hopes, the members hope to help others (as well as themselves) during the recovery process.
Alcoholics Anonymous has groups in the United States, Canada and other countries and is highly regarded for first introducing the 12-Step Program.
Narcotics Anonymous
P.O. Box 9999
Van Nuys, CA 91409
(818) 773-9999
Through the 12 steps and 12 traditions adapted from Alcoholics Anonymous, Narcotics Anonymous (NA), created in the late 1940s, is one of the world's oldest and largest organizations of its type. NA offers weekly meeting across the nation and is open to any drug addict, regardless of the particular drug, who wishes to become drug free.
P.O. Box 10534
Gaithersburg, MD 20898-0534
(301) 250-5650
Also adapted from the 12-step program of AA, Prescription Anonymous (RxA) was created in 1998 for people who are addicted to prescription and over-the-counter medications. With groups meeting all around the country, RxA members learn to cope and make responsible choices that will help them to stay free of prescription drug abuse.
Treatment FacilitiesFor parents who think their teens need hands-on, one-on-one services to conquer their drug addictions, there are many detox and drug treatment facilities. Here are two of the most well-known:
11505 36th Avenue North
Plymouth, MN 55441-2398
(800) 833-4497
Founded in 1949, Hazelden is one of the best-known private treatment organizations in the world and caters to helping individuals, families and communities struggling with addiction to alcohol and drugs.
Hazelden's Center for Youth and Families has been helping those ages 14 to 25 since 1981, and the center attracts clients throughout the nation.
During primary care, which varies in length from client to client, teens attend group-therapy, individual counseling and recreational services. For those who choose, spiritual activities are also offered. Hazelden keeps students on the right track educationally through tutorial arrangements with local school districts.
Because Hazelden believes addiction affects the whole family, parents and professionals are updated throughout the process. Parents are also encouraged to attend the four-day Parent Program, which is open to parents even if their child isn't at Hazelden. During the four days, parents attend lectures, watch videos, have discussions with small groups of other parents and attend a family conference with their child to gain knowledge about how to be supportive during the recovery process.
After completion of primary treatment, some men, ages 16 to 25, are referred to extended care services. During this time, young men have a longer period to heal and learn more about coping with life in order to maintain abstinence. Length of extended aftercare varies, but it may continue for up to 90 days.
A comprehensive continuing care plan is provided to assure that all clients have access to aftercare and support in their hometown community so that once they return home, they will stay on the sober path.
Prices vary from case to case. Insurance does sometimes cover a portion, but generally treatment is not covered by insurance. Hazelden is more than eager to work out payment plans for those who need it and will take on special cases based on need.
The Caron Foundation
Galen Hall Road
P.O. Box 150
Wernersville, PA 19565-0150
(800) 678-2332
The Caron Foundation is a not-for-profit organization that provides treatment for those addicted to drugs and alcohol, whether they be adults or teens. Founded in 1957, the Caron Foundation is one of the world's oldest and largest providers of addiction treatment in the United States and provides treatment services for youths ages 12 to 19.
During primary treatment (which averages about 30 days), teens at Caron are provided with a full spectrum of services, including residential treatment, medical services, individual therapy, group therapy, recreational, spiritual and educational services, all in a gender-separate environment.
During their stay at Caron, teens receive two to three individual sessions per week and daily group therapy where they have the chance to give and receive feedback on life skills and ways to overcome problems.
Teens who are in Caron's care also receive assignments from their home school, as well as assignments developed on campus. In most circumstances, teens can gain school credit for sessions while in treatment.
After primary treatment, some teens are recommended to continue treatment during an extended-care program (minimum stay of 90 additional days). During extended-care, teens are allowed to go home on passes and to have extended visitations, during which time they can get used to being back in their family environment. Recreational services during extended-care include activities like camping, paint-balling and white-water rafting. This is all a part of the foundation's mission to show teens that they can have fun without getting high.
Caron uses a tier-based pricing system, so prices vary. Insurance usually covers a portion of treatment, and Caron also provides payment plans and financial assistance to those who qualify.
Online Treatment
If you don't think your teen will do well in a face-to-face setting, or if you've tried support groups and traditional programs with no success, there are other options.
105 N. Bascom Ave., 2nd Floor
San Jose, CA 95128
teenGetgoing is an online drug treatment and awareness program launched in March 2003. The program allows teens to learn about and treat addictions all in the comfort of their own home. Armed with a headset microphone and special software (all of which is provided), teens sign on with a screen name and "attend" twice-weekly group therapy sessions that are led by certified counselors.
Because teens are given screen names, they are totally anonymous, making it a great environment for shy or embarrassed teens to beat an addiction.
After successfully completing the treatment program, teens gain access to a lifetime of "aftercare" and can get follow-up support and participate in counselor-led alumni group chats, if they choose.
teenGetgoing's treatment programs cost $1200 for 24 sessions. The sessions are broken down to twice-weekly for 12 weeks. They do offer discounts for those referred by a school, the legal system or other programs. teenGetgoing provides scholarships to some families that qualify and is more than happy to provide payment plans for others.
No part of dealing with an addiction is easy. From feelings of grief, anger, embarrassment and concern for their child's safety, a parent has enough worries. Now, finding reliable help in beating the addiction battle doesn't have to be one of them.

Loose cows end up at storeJanuary 04,2013
WAITSFIELD — Vermont State Police say 10 cows were running loose for around an hour in Waitsfield late Tuesday night.
The Belted Galloway cows were owned by farmer Hadley Gaylord. They were located in the parking lot of the Village Grocery on Main Street.
Trooper Amber Haag said state police received the call about the wayward cows around 11:37 p.m. She said the cows were having trouble getting traction on the roads because of the salt, but none of the cows fell or were injured.
Haag said the cows were eventually herded back to their pasture by Gaylord's cattle dog and the escape did not cause any traffic disturbances. Haag said she responded in case she needed to escort the cows back home.MORE IN This Just InSOUTH BURLINGTON A spokesman for the U.S. Full StoryBURLINGTON Five former high school football players have pleaded not guilty to assault charges...

These babies are part of a litter of five, three males and two females, who have started their lives in a noisy animal shelter and are looking for a new home. They're part Dachshund, but the other part is unknown.
They are expected to weigh about 15 pounds as adults and are ready to be trained and loved. Now only 6 weeks old, they can be rescued and adopted at Newton County Animal Shelter, located at 210 Lower River Road in Covington. The shelter usually has between 20 to 30 dogs and an equal number of cats eligible for adoption. The adoption fee for a dog or puppy is $25 and $10 for a cat or kitten.

UPDATE: The South Dakota Attorney General's office confirms there is an ongoing active investigation involving the resignation of former Tea police chief Brian Ketterhagen and officer James Klimple.
For the second time in two years, the town of Tea is without a police chief.
This time the Tea police department is not only down a chief but also an officer.
It was at Tea city council on Monday night where the mayor called a closed executive session with city council and accepted the resignation of two members of the tea police department.
City councilor Chuck Ortmeier confirms Tea police chief Brian Ketterhagen and officer James Klimple both resigned in front off the mayor and Tea city council.
Ortmeier would not state the reasons for the resignations.
No charges have been filed against the officers.
Assistant chief Brian Tvedt is temporarily acting as chief while the city looks for a replacement.
Tea officers met yesterday to form a strategy for the near the future.
Ortmeier says the search for a new chief and officer could take some time.
One idea the city tossed around is they may reach out to the Lincoln County Sheriff's office for assistance if needed.
KSFY reached out to Lincoln County states attorney Tom Wollman for more information.
He told us he was aware but could not elaborate any further.
Wollman suggested we contact the attorney general's office and we are waiting to hear back from them.
