WR Simpson sentenced to 15 days in jail
Bengals free-agent WR Jerome Simpson was sentenced to 15 days in jail and three years' probation on drug-related charges, according to The Associated Press.
Cincinnati Bengals
Here are the Cincinnati Bengals top three needs going into the draft, subject to any free-agent signings it may make before then.
AFC North draft needs
No AFC North club has more pressing draft needs than the Browns, whose offense lags behind the rest of the division. As a result, Cleveland could grab rising QB Ryan Tannehill.
Bengals collecting No. 1 picks
The Bengals currently have 12 first-round picks on their roster, and that number is likely to grow.
Report: Bengals have most cap space
Despite a rash of free-agent signings, Cincinnati has the most available room under the salary cap, according to a report by Pro Football Talk.
Bengals re-sign OLB Lawson
The Bengals have kept one of their top defenders, re-signing OLB Manny Lawson on Wednesday. Terms and conditions of the deal were not announced.
Bengals haven't ruled out re-signing Simpson
Bengals head coach Marvin Lewis told reporters on Tuesday that the team would consider re-signing UFA WR Jerome Simpson.
Once again, Bengals fairly active in free agency
As they did last offseason, the Bengals have been able to address multiple needs after the opening of the free-agent market.
Report: Bengals re-sign DT Sims
The Bengals have re-signed free-agent DT Pat Sims, according to Joe Reedy of the Cincinnati Enquirer.
Bengals add depth with four signings
The Bengals have brought back CB Adam Jones and OT Anthony Collins, while also signing free-agent DEs Derrick Harvey and Jamaal Anderson.
Bengals add RB Green-Ellis
The Bengals have added a new piece to their offense, agreeing on Wednesday to a three-year deal with RB BenJarvus Green-Ellis.
Broncos add WR Caldwell
Needing targets for new QB Peyton Manning, the Broncos have signed former Bengals free-agent WR Andre Caldwell to a two-year deal.
Reports: Bengals agree with S Nelson
The Bengals have reached an agreement to re-sign UFA FS Reggie Nelson, ESPN's Adam Schefter reported Sunday.
Reports: Bengals agree with CB Allen
The Bengals have agreed to a contract with Texans UFA CB Jason Allen, multiple media outlets have reported.
Bengals sign OG Wharton
The Bengals have finally made a move in free agency, signing former Panthers OG Travelle Wharton.
The Bengals signed Pollak, who was an unrestricted free agent.||||||| Pollak is a sixth-year veteran out of Arizona State, and has played in 59 NFL games, with 41 starts. Pollak entered the NFL in 2008 as a second-round draft choice of the Indianapolis Colts. He signed as an unrestricted free agent with the Carolina Panthers last season.
The Carolina Panthers have signed Pollak to a one-year deal. The team announced the move Thursday.||||||| Pollak played in 58 games, including 41 starts, for the Indianapolis Colts and can help fill the void after left guard Travelle Wharton was released earlier this offseason in a salary cap move. Pollak, a four-year veteran, provided protection that allowed Peyton Manning to lead the league in yards passing in 2010 and rank second in 2009. The Colts allowed the fewest sacks in the league both seasons.
Pollak did not travel with the team to San Diego on Friday and will not play Saturday against the Chargers in the playoffs.||||||| Pollak, a starting guard, has not practiced all week because of an ankle injury he sustained in last week's 23-0 victory over Tennessee. Coach Tony Dungy has said that if Pollak cannot play, Dan Federkeil would start in his place. Federkeil started the first three games this season at right guard when Pollak was out with a knee injury.
On the eve of training camp, the Colts agreed to terms with five draft picks including their top choice, Pollak, in a dash to get all nine draft choices into camp on time.||||||| Pollak agreed to his deal with Indianapolis late Wednesday afternoon but had not yet signed the contract and terms were not disclosed. Pollak's agent, Ken Zuckerman, confirmed the deal in a text message to The Associated Press but was not immediately available for comment after boarding a plane. Pollak, a second-round pick and No. 59 overall, is expected to compete for the starting guard spot that was vacated when Jake Scott signed with Tennessee in free agency.

It was a rough Olympics for America's representatives on the artificial turf at Riverbank Arena, as the U.S. women's field hockey squad lost a classification match Friday to finish winless in London.
After going 1-4 in group play, they were matched up against Belgium on Friday to battle for a better place in the world rankings. Although the United States scored first on a goal from Paige Selenski, they couldn't hold on, with Belgium striking twice to take a 2-1 victory and the 11th spot in the 12-team field hockey tournament.
The United States wasn't far from faring significantly better at the Olympics: of the six matches they played, five were decided by one goal. But they got the short end of the stick in four of the five matches, with the lone win coming against Argentina in a shocking upset. Argentina finished 3-1-1 in group play and meets the Netherlands on Friday night in the gold medal match.
The U.S. leaves London with a 1-5 record and hoping for a better performance in four years in Rio.

Bond was set at $250,000 for a driver who faces felony DUI charges after seriously injuring a west suburban Montgomery police officer early Saturday when he allegedly struck his police cruiser.
Early Saturday, Montgomery police received a report of shots fired at a party in the 700 block of Oakton Avenue, according to Montgomery police.
Sgt. Adam Kuncl was en route to the incident when his vehicle was struck by a car allegedly driven by Kendall Collier, 18, of the 100 block of Linden Drive in Oswego, who was reportedly fleeing the party where the shots were fired, according to police and the accused man's family,
Kuncl -- who has been with the Montgomery Police since 2000 and was promoted to sergeant in 2007 -- was taken to a hospital to be treated and monitored for what were initially described as serious injuries, police said in a release.
Kuncl was released from the hospital Sunday after suffering a skull fracture that required stitches to his head, a broken scapula, compressed discs in his back, and multiple lacerations and bruises about the head, face, and body, Montgomery police said.
Collier was charged with felony aggravated driving under the influence and more charges are expected, police said. His bond was set Sunday at $250,000 at a Kane County courthouse.
"We appreciate the strong outpouring of support for Sgt. Kuncl and his family," Police Chief Daniel Meyers said in a statement issued late Saturday. The department also thanked police from Kane and Kendall counties as well as officers from Aurora, Sugar Grove and Oswego for their assistance.
It is not known if there were any arrests in the shooting or whether police were looking for any other suspects. Montgomery police did not return calls for comment.
According to Aurora police spokesman Dan Ferrelli, about two hours after the shooting, Aurora officers stopped a black 2004 Dodge Dakota pickup truck that matched the description of the vehicle involved in the shooting.
Ferrelli said a 22-year-old man and an 18-year-old woman were in the truck. The man and woman were both released without charges and the truck was impounded and turned over to Montgomery police, Ferrelli said.
Collier's father Kenneth Collier said he and his wife were out of town when the incident took place. As of Saturday afternoon they had not yet seen their son, he said.
"We're finding out what happened as we go along," the older Collier said.
Kenneth Collier said friends of his son who were at the party have told them that someone started shooting and his son was one of several people fleeing the party. Kendall Collier hit the squad car while he was trying to get away from the shots, according his father. Kendall Collier received stitches in his head after the crash, his father said.
His son, he noted, is a good kid who graduated early from Oswego High School.
"He's gotten himself in a whole heap of trouble this time," Kenneth Collier said.
The family did not have a lawyer as of Saturday afternoon.
Police are investigating the murder of a homeless man who was beaten to death in an alley in Logan Square.

Columbia Business School Research Paper
We use a combination of lab and field evidence to study whether preferences for immediacy and the tendency to procrastinate are connected as in O'Donoghue and Rabin (1999a). To measure immediacy, we have participants choose between smaller-sooner and larger-later rewards. Both rewards are paid by check to control for transaction costs. To measure procrastination, we record how fast participants cash their checks and complete other tasks. We find that individuals with a preference for immediacy are more likely to procrastinate. We also find evidence that individuals differ in the degree to which they anticipate their own procrastination.

You're leaving Wedding Paper Divas to see the Deal of the Day at our parent site, Tiny Prints.
You won't be able to dismiss this by usual means (escape or click button), but you can close it programatically based on user choices or actions.
"We are having an October wedding in Salem, Ma. Our colors are black, gold, and ivory so we were looking for something to match of course. I wanted the main color to be black with gold writing and a lot of other sites didn't have this. The foil stamps really gave these invitations something extra which we loved. The artist was wonderful to work with, we went back and forth via email a couple times and they really make sure you get exactly what you want. I would definitely order from wedding paper divas again!"
"We ordered this invitation and RSVP card in Almond with a solid almond back on the matte white stock, and could not be more pleased with the decision! The design is so lovely, just perfect for my daughter's outdoor garden-style wedding. It has just the right soft, vintage feel we were looking for. The paper quality is excellent, they look and feel great. The design review process is extremely helpful - our reviewer made a couple of changes that improved what we had submitted - and the turnaround was incredibly fast. The final product was exactly what we expected and were hoping for ... no complaints or disappointment whatsoever. We highly recommend this product!"
"I cannot count how many people loved his invitation and asked where we got it. Pictures fit in well and design was perfect for our simple but fun wedding!"
"The invitation's appearance is dainty, graceful, and elegant. Nature's design that borders the photo enhances its beautiful, delicate look. The font is stylish, easy to read, and polishes the attractive design. Prompt delivery is impressive."
"Unique look of chalk on black can be perfect for certain wedding themes. The contrast of color (we chose plum/purple) is stunning and adds dimension to invitation's appearance. Whimsical swirl to font matches the product's design, but it may be harder to some people to read. Prompt delivery was impressive!"

Community members gather at McKee Street Park to support shooting victim's family
Outrage about crime in Columbia hits new levels as another family mourns the loss of a teenager.
About 50 people gathered at McKee Street Park Monday night to support Treveon Marshall's family.
Someone gunned down Marshall in McKee Street Park late Monday night. He died in the hospital later that night.
Family and community members said they want an end to the violent acts in Columbia.
"We had to come out and show we're tired of that, losing young black men in the streets," said Lorenzo Lawson with the Youth Empowerment Zone. "It's senseless."
Lawson organized the gathering Monday night.
He urged anyone who knows anything to come forward and to help the police catch the person responsible.
Friends and community members who didn't even know Treveon Marshall came to help the family.
"I'm here to support Treveon Marshall's family as they go through this hard time," Karriona Melson said. "If my brother, son or cousin died, I would be pretty hurt."
The night ended with a prayer circle.
The family is holding a candlelight vigil Tuesday night at 7 p.m. at the McKee Street Park.

This somewhat legendary watering hole attracts musicians from all over the country (Argentine folk musicians Charly Garcia and Fito Paez have played here).
This somewhat legendary watering hole attracts musicians from all over the country (Argentine folk musicians Charly Garcia and Fito Paez have played here).
Extremely popular bar and dance club on La Cañada. Check it out, especially on Thursday night.
A laid-back bar playing an eclectic range of music. Live music Thursday to Sundays and a big patio cervecero (beer garden) make this a standout.
An ever-popular spot for drinks and dancing, attracting a good range of locals, travelers and expats.
Tiled arches, dim lighting, cozy booths, white beanbag chairs and electronica give this mosque-like bar a very chilled feel that's great for lounging. When you're all lounged out, hop around Nueva Córdoba - take a walk down Calle Rondeau between Avs H Yrigoyen and Chacabuco after midnight and choose from dozens of bars.
The best gay club in the center is completely empty until 2am and completely slamming until sun-up.
It's well worth going to a performance here, if only to see the opulence of the country's most historic theater. The theater was completed in 1891, and the floor was designed to be mechanically raised and leveled to the stage, so seats could be removed, allowing for grand parties for the aristocracy of the early 1900s.
Cuarteto music (a Córdoba invention) is predictably big here and played live in many venues. Unfortunately, it's also the gangsta rap of Argentine folk music and tends to attract undesirable crowds. La Sala del Rey is a respectable venue and the best place to catch a cuarteto show, on Sunday, when the hugely popular band La Barra often plays.
For a great night (or day) at the movies, pop into this municipal film house, which screens everything from art flicks to Latin American award winners and local films. Stop by for a program. There's also live music and theatrical performances here.
Paseo del Buen Pastor is a cultural center/performance space, which was built in 1901 as a combined chapel/monastery/women's prison. In mid-2007 it was re-inaugurated to showcase work by Córdoba's young and emerging artists. There are a couple of hip cafe-bars in the central patio area where you can kick back with an Appletini or two.
Shows contemporary and avante garde art, hosts concerts and offers month-long art and music courses.
On Friday nights, the city hosts the Patio del Tango on the outdoor Patio Mayor of the historic Cabildo (weather permitting), kicking off with two-hour tango lessons. Times vary, so it's best to stop by the Casa Cabildo Tourist Information Office.
In a semi-dodgy neighborhood, the Bizarro is one of the city's more bohemian hangouts. There's plenty of mood lighting, and a different DJ in each of the four rooms.
One of the best spots in town to catch latin dance grooves such as salsa and bachata. Weekends it often has live bands.
In the busy Albasto scene, this live-music venue and disco is a good place to start, if only for the fact that it gets a crowd before 1am. Fridays are Latin dance parties; on Saturdays there are live bands.

The Mississippi Museum of Art is showing off its new addition.
During a special ribbon cutting ceremony, officials unveiled the museum's new art garden. The garden sits on a 1.2 acre park. Access to the garden is free and open to the public.
The new outdoor space includes outdoor terrace dining, native garden beds and fountains. So far, 90% of the garden is paid for. Now, museum fundraiser's are asking the public to help raise the additional 10%.
Mayo Flynt, fundraising chair for the art garden says, "we are asking individuals and businesses to consider a $1,000 gift that can be paid over three years, that's $27 a day to invest in this great space that's behind us and to continue the revitalization of downtown Jackson."
A museum fundraiser called "An Evening In the Garden" begins at 6:00PM Thursday night.

External supplies being routed into the State have not been fully restored, a day after the massive failure in the north, east and northeast grids.
The shortage was estimated to be to the order of 400 MW on Wednesday, a much better position relative to the previous day when it was as high as 900 MW.
Tripping of the Talcher thermal project in Odisha had deprived the State of as much as 620 MW straightaway. The Talcher-Kolar line, a 2,500-MW high-voltage direct current (HVDC) carrier, is the lifeline for the southern grid.
Putting the situation in perspective, a KSEB official said the load in the Kerala State Electricity Board system had shot up to the range of 3,100 to 3,200 MW in recent weeks.
During the last two days, however, KSEB could not sustain it beyond 2,500 MW because of a steep drop in the supply of power from outside.
The power outage in the north and east had necessitated load-shedding as the flows from the Central grid came down.
KSEB has had to resort to cyclical load-shedding both during daytime and late evening hours to manage the situation.
The schedule varied for periods ranging from 30 minutes to one hour and in some areas it had to be done more than once.
"We had to ramp up hydro power generation to the maximum extent in the last two days to minimise the impact of the outage," the official said.
Already, the indifferent monsoon had forced the KSEB to retain to the extent possible water level in its hydroelectric reservoirs.
It had jacked up daily generation from the hydel stations to more than 20 million units from the threshold level of 12 million units.

Indiana beats Georgetown for eighth NCAA men's title
HOOVER, Ala. – Nikita Kotlov scored off a header pass from Eriq Zavaleta midway through the second half to give Indiana a 1-0 victory over Georgetown on Sunday to win the NCAA men's soccer championship.
It is the eighth Division I soccer championship for the Hoosiers (16-5-3), their first since 2004.
Indiana midfielder Patrick Doody lofted a crossing pass to the right of the goal that brought Georgetown goalkeeper Tomas Gomez out from the net.
Zavaleta got to the ball before the Hoyas' Jimmy Nealis, sending a header to Kotlov that he easily kicked into the open net.
The best scoring opportunity for Georgetown (19-4-3) came in the first half when Tyler Rudy sent a straight-on shot that diving Indiana goalkeeper Luis Soffner barely stopped with his fingertips.
It was the third consecutive 1-0 victory for the Hoosiers. Indiana allowed a total of two goals in its five NCAA tournament games.
Messi breaks 40-year-old record with 86th goal
BARCELONA, Spain – Lionel Messi broke German great Gerd Mueller's 40-year-old record for most goals in a year by scoring for the 86th time in 2012 on Sunday.
The Argentina forward scored twice to lead Barcelona to a 2-1 win at Real Betis in the Spanish league match.
His first was an individual effort in the 16th minute to equal Mueller's mark, and he eclipsed the 1972 milestone with a familiar left-footed finish nine minutes later. Messi has scored 74 goals for Barcelona and 12 times for Argentina this year, and he has three more games in which he can add to his tally.
Mueller scored 85 for Bayern Munich and West Germany.
The 25-year-old Messi passed Brazil great Pele's single-season milestone of 75 goals for Brazil and Santos in 1958 with his 75th and 76th goals of the year on Nov. 11 to move into second place behind Mueller.

First victory of the season for men's World Cup champ
VAL D'ISERE, France – Defending World Cup champion Marcel Hirscher of Austria protected his first-run lead to comfortably win a giant slalom race on Sunday, helped by Frenchman Alexis Pinturault's clumsy mistake three gates from the end.
Hirscher, who was third in Saturday's slalom, secured his first win of the season, his third consecutive podium spot and fifth so far.
"I heard a lot of questions recently, like 'What's going on, you're only second?"' Hirscher said. "Whoa, I thought second was OK. But now I guess those questions are over. "
He finished 1.16 seconds ahead of Germany's Stefan Luitz, with American Ted Ligety climbing up from sixth to finish 1.42 behind in third place on the Stade Olympique de Bellevarde course.
Pinturault was left just as stunned as the home fans by his error as he caught an inside ski and put his hand down with the finish line in sight.
Slovenia's Maze extends GS lead; Vonn finishes 27th
MORITZ, Switzerland – Tina Maze of Slovenia won her third consecutive World Cup giant slalom Sunday to extend her lead in the overall standings, and defending champion Lindsey Vonn placed 27th after almost crashing.
Maze held her morning lead to finish 0.08 seconds ahead of Viktoria Rebensburg, the Olympic champion from Germany, in a total time of 2 minutes, 11.07 seconds. Tessa Worley of France was third, trailing Maze by 0.55.
Vonn hit trouble midway down her second run after her skis appeared to touch. The American racer came out of rough, course-side snow to complete the race nearly six seconds slower than Maze and score four valuable World Cup points.
"That's why I kept fighting to the end," said Vonn, who lost the overall title by just three points to Maria Hoefl-Riesch in 2011.
The win gave Maze 100 points and she now leads by 234 from Germany's Hoefl-Riesch, who placed ninth. Vonn is third, 263 behind Maze.

Today was a tough day for any parent with kids in school. Across the valley, school administrators were reassuring parents of their safety procedures and preparedness.
But dealing with an incident like this can be difficult for schools.
We talked to Eric Twist, headmaster at the Great Heart Schools, which serves K-5 kids. He explained to FOX 10 how his administration would handle something like what happened in Connecticut.
"It's hard to absorb the tragedy… my initial thoughts as a parent was run down to my two kids in the classroom and hold them and grab them but of course, you immediately think about all the procedures you have in place and training you do and you hope that those are sufficient."
Twist says that some parents have already called him with concerns about safety features.
"We have had phone calls from families and we reminded them that we have lockdown procedures, we practice these procedures, we take teachers and students through drills at all schools, we have code words that tell our staff that we have an internal threat, an external threat."
What else are they telling parents to tell their kids?
"We are telling them this is up to them to decide what is appropriate because of their child's age, and what they would feel comfortable as a family. We did not discuss it today as a school, we will not be discussing it, we don't believe it's appropriate for a school to bring this type of stories in the classroom."
What if a student mentions this in school and puts a teacher on the spot?
"I think in this case a teacher can express their grief or concern but immediately refer them back to their parents," says Twist.
"We really need to protect the sacredness of the classroom and let the classroom be the place where they are focusing on things other than awful tragedies like this one."
So how should parents explain to their kids what happened? We asked a child therapist for some advice on how to help kids cope in a time like this.
"Children need to be reassured that just because it happened over there doesn't mean that it's going to happen here, so as parents we may need to talk to the school," says Cesar Gamez, licensed professional counselor.
"About our child's school crisis response plan, maybe we need to educate our kids about the fact that they are safe, so I think that we need to open the doors to talk about feelings, whether it's anger or sadness, even confusion."
The counselor also says it's not just safety and gun control the country may need to address -- but also mental health issues that could have been involved in the shooting.
Gamez also says there needs to be discussion about behavioral health.

"The percentage of black players in the major leagues dropped again on opening day this year even as the sport again received a top overall grade for racial diversity."(AP) Considering that the Giants don't have an African American on their regular 25 man roster, it's hard to imagine guys like Mays and Mccovey who represent nationally the Giants organization and black American players in general, not speaking up about it. I think the situation sort of crimps their style. Darren Ford's on the team right now but he'll surely get sent down when Andres Torres is healthy enough to play again. It would be nice if Marc Kroon is promoted later on in the season as he pitched very well in spring training. Hopefully, Thomas Neal is for real and gets the outfield job next season.

BAE explains 'disappointing outcome' to staff
BAE has sent a notice to all its 93,500 employees explaining the "disappointing outcome" of its merger talks with EADS.
The letter, written by CEO Ian King, states:
Over the past few weeks, we have been in discussion with EADS about a potential combination of our companies. We have now decided to end these discussions.
From the start of these talks, I was clear that we would only proceed with a merger of our businesses if a structure could be created that aligned the interests of our stakeholders and received their strong support. I did not underestimate the challenges in achieving this but felt that given the additional value this strategic opportunity would create for our shareholders, it was worth exploring.
Notwithstanding a great deal of constructive discussion with governments, it became clear that the interests of our stakeholders could not be adequately aligned with each other or with the objectives that we had established for the merger. I therefore decided it is in the best interests of BAE Systems and our shareholders to terminate the discussions.
This is a disappointing outcome as there is no doubt in my mind that the merger represented an opportunity to bring together two strong and successful companies into a group that would be greater than the sum of its parts. BAE Systems is a strong, independent and financially robust company that is successfully implementing its strategy.
We remain committed to developing our position as a world-class engineering company with a significant international footprint and growing our platform and services positions, together with our cyber, intelligence and security and electronic systems businesses.
Mr King also highlighted that BAE would "remain close partners with EADS" and thanked BAE's employees for their "support, determination and hard work".

Texas woman is suing Facebook over a fake profile.
A wreck on the Don Holt Bridge has been cleared after causing delays Tuesday morning for motorists headed onto Daniel Island and into Mt. Pleasant.
The wreck was reported at the crest of the bridge, in the left eastbound lane, just before 7:45 a.m.
Moderate delays occurred in both eastbound and westbound lanes on the bridge.
As of 8:30 a.m., traffic was flowing smoother on the bridge although delays congestion in North Charleston continued because of the earlier wreck.

For the first time ever, I actually decided to head on over to another team's blog to see what they were writing about the Horns. In this case, I decided to visit Double T Nation where I found this post. Although I don't really care about the Vegas odds on Tech beating us (or vice versa - I expect it to be close and don't care to try to quantify it), I did take exception to the author's statement that Colt can be neutralized with pressure --> "Tech crushes Texas because simply, McCoy can not (sic) perform under high pressure."
I'm writing here because I am an admitted UT homer and my reflex response to this statement was that Colt is not nearly as flappable as this submission seems to suggest. As I've watched him throughout this season, I've seen a QB who can easily roll out of trouble and make plays (just remember the fumble/pass play two games ago) when under duress. I'll readily admit, though, that I am not a football technician and may be missing something. So, I open it up to you BON... disabuse me of this notion if I'm wrong or just add fuel to my fire if I'm not. Either way, I will read on with interest!

The suspects of a violent home invasion, Antoine Williams, 20, and Darryl Stafford, 28, were arraigned Tuesday afternoon, charged with armed robbery. Both were denied bond.
Police say they stormed into Jasmine Place Apartments with guns Monday morning and held two brothers at gunpoint while they robbed them of electronics and a shotgun.
"I am so relieved to know they are in custody for the simple fact they did wrong. They should be there. Everyone needs to look out for each other. This is something that goes on in every neighborhood, not just mine," said Tobias Mulligan, neighbor.
The victims were able to get most of their stuff back Monday night after police say they found the stolen items at a house on E 37th St.
"When you have someone who breaks into a home like this, a home invasion, a someone takes items and you are able to return them, it gives them a little bit of solace at the end of the day," said Chris Ross, SCMPD detective.
Police were able to find the suspects because the iPhones and iPads stolen in the home invasion have tracking devices built in.

11. Indestructible Machine by Lydia Loveless
Buy It At:
Artist Website | Amazon | iTunes
Whether she's being stalked by a local wanna-be ("Steve Earle") or musing on the Son of God's empathy for the common man ("Jesus was a Wino"), Loveless finds a way to put a wicked spin on her Midwestern tales. She doesn't have all the answers; on the contrary, her narrators are sometimes just muddling through ("I grew up on whiskey and God so I'm a little bit confused"). But they have a fierce sense of just how far they'll be pushed, and neither the music nor the singer backs off. As fiddle and banjo tangle with guitars that slam and twang over raucous drumming, Loveless digs her boots into the dirt on rabble-rousers such as "Can't Change Me" and "More Like Them." But what makes this album such a startlingly mature-beyond-its-years triumph is her openness. The vulnerability in "Crazy," the heartache underlying the exasperation in "How Many Women" – these are songs that signal a major new voice blowing into the country-punk dives and honky-tonks.
-- Greg Kot, Chicago Tribune
Best Songs: Can't Change Me, Jesus Was A Wino, Bad Way To Go, More Like Them, How Many Women

12. Can't Get Past The Lips by Broncho
Buy It At:
Artist Website | Amazon | iTunes
BRONCHO are one of alternative rock's big new hopes and they quickly live up to that hype with their debut album "Can't Get Past The Lips", an energized collection of garage and alternative rock anthems that bode well for a promising future. The album deserves classic debut status and is a strong and hugely likeable release that's worthy of the hype now surrounding them. "Can't Get Past The Lips" is not a bulky record by any means, but it is certainly not a token gesture either. In fact, Broncho's debut demonstrates a strong songwriting acumen and stubbornly heightened emotions that feed their collective energies.

13. The Dangers Of Standing Still by Red City Radio
Buy It At:
Artist Website | Amazon | iTunes
"The Dangers Of Standing Still" is the aptly-titled, full-length debut from Oklahoma City quartet Red City Radio which has earned them comparisons to the likes of the The Gaslight Anthem, Polar Bear Club and Hot Water Music. It's a hard-rocking and emotive punk/anthemic hardcore hybrid that brings to mind a descriptive or four: Lupine fury. Ravenous ferocity. Muscular relentlessness. Controlled chaos. "The Dangers Of Standing Still" is an unwavering call to arms that jerks the wheel into oncoming traffic and dares you to duck out. Good luck with that.

Best Songs: Spinning In Circles Is A Gateway Drug, Drinking Ourselves Into The Future, This Day Has Seen Better Bars

14. Smoke Ring For My Halo by Kurt Vile
Buy It At:
Artist Website | Amazon | iTunes
Vile has acknowledged limits in length for the sake of depth. It makes for a full-blown journey. Though there isn't an earworm like "Freeway"-- that endlessly replayable, interstate love song from Vile's 2008 Constant Hitmaker LP-- Smoke Rings isn't that kind of listen. This feels like a family of songs, one whose complexion and course changes as a whole with every spin. In the closing moments of "Ghost Town", Vile leaves us with, "Raindrops might fall on my head sometimes, but I don't pay 'em any mind. Then again, I guess it ain't always that way." He knows exactly what he's trying to say.

15. Arabia Mountain by Black Lips
Buy It At:
Artist Website | Amazon | iTunes
On their sixth album, Arabia Mountain (out June 7), Black Lips stepped up their game by hiring superproducer Mark Ronson for their most polished collection of garage-rock yet. Ever have a jones to hear snot-nosed punks sing about molested superheroes?? Black Lips have offered up a full stream of the new record, which you can hear here.
As we note in our 7 out of 10 review of the album, Black Lips undergo a transformation in the hands of Ronson this time around, morphing from piss-swilling louts to savvy psych-soul pros: "[The Black Lips] are sculpted into garage-rock sophistication, adding extended psychedelic guitar lines, fleshed-out percussion, even retro-soul sax."

16. The Deep Field by Joan As Police Woman
Buy It At:
Artist Website | Amazon | iTunes
In the dark boogie-woogie soul of her songs is the same maudlin murk that exists in Hegarty but also female (and equally non-heteronormative) singer-songwriter precursors Nina Simone, Patti Smith, Tori Amos and Ani DiFranco, who Wasser very much channels on The Deep Field's ear-worm, first single, "Magic". Contemporaries such as Regina Spektor and Feist are also accurate RIYLs. But few contemporaries have the snide-talking, Northeastern, Cash Belt swagger Wasser does. She's confident in her sound, despite being maybe five years into her solo career. The finale of The Deep Field, "I Was Everyone", shows it off in spades, capturing the lightning of a perfect soul groove in a bottle of swirling, churning, life-giving, invigorating water.

Best Songs: Human Condition, I Was Everyone, The Magic

17. Cults by Cults
Buy It At:
Artist Website | Amazon | iTunes
At just over a half hour, Cults feels like the perfect length-- just long enough for the bus ride to school (or to work). But more importantly, it executes what it sets out to do masterfully while allowing the group room to grow and mature. They've also set themselves up to take their sound and subject matter in any number of possible directions in the future, and that's a good position for a young band to find itself in. Cults built up a lot of goodwill last year on the strength of just three tracks; on their debut album, they've rewarded it.

Best Songs: Never Saw The Point, Go Outside, Abducted

18. Burst Apart by The Antlers
Buy It At:
Artist Website | Amazon | iTunes
"Burst Apart's" atmosphere is nocturnal and desolate. Foreboding death-crawl "No Widows" fears for vehicular disaster; brief flickers of light are allowed full exposure on the gorgeous, incantatory centerpiece "Rolled Together", whose brushed drum work and silvery guitars could be heard as a studiously completed homework assignment on Agaetis Byrjun. Meanwhile, the tender, nearly beatless balladry of "Hounds" and "Corsicana" are wholly the Antlers' own and painfully pretty to behold-- however depressive Silberman's lyrics, one can simply revel in the zero-gravity synth and vocal moans and feel some sort of uplift.
-- Pitchfork CD Review
Best Songs: Every Night My Teeth Are Falling Out, Parentheses
Team Photo: Corsicana
19. Kaputt by Destroyer
Buy It At:
Artist Website | Amazon | iTunes
The production and arrangements evoke a narrow window of time-- sometime between, say, 1977 and 1984, or between Chuck Mangione's "Feels So Good" and Sade's Diamond Life with stops along the way for Roxy Music's Avalon and Steely Dan's Gaucho. It slides between soft rock, smooth jazz, and new romantic pop. The bass is fretless; the synths have the blocky contrast of a Nagel painting; there are heavily reverbed trumpets and saxophones that almost serve as a Greek chorus, trilling away at the end of every line to enforce the beautiful plasticity of these songs. For Destroyer, this sound is new, and it's there for a reason.

Best Songs: Chinatown, Kaputt

20. The Head and The Heart by The Head and The Heart
Buy It At:
Artist Website | Amazon | iTunes
This debut by the aptly named The Head and the Heart is a solid showcase for the band's easy, earthy Americana-pop sound that taps into both body parts with the familiar touch of an old friend. The Seattle six-piece has a winning combination of vocals in Charity Rose Thielen (who also plays violin) and core members Josiah Johnson and Jonathan Russell, who deliver refreshingly reverb-free performances; they are masters of heartpounding crescendos and deliriously infectious folkisms (foot stomping, hand-clapping, etc.). Pianos and guitars rule, and smart, touching lyrics are uncluttered by clever instrumental overkill. The carefree "Cats and Dogs" opens things up, like a rope swing on a summer day: "My roots have grown/but I don't know where they are." That theme of wandering roots is further explored in the gorgeous "Down in the Valley," which uses a lithe violin and a beautifully nostalgia-laced vocal melody to sculpt a palpable longing. If you like your new Americana music honest and direct — think Avett Brothers or The Civil Wars — you'll be delighted to discover The Head and The Heart.

One of my favorite things about Passover is Charoset!
Charoset, if you're not familiar with it, is sort of like a fruit salad.
It's made from yummy apples and nuts sweetened with cinnamon and a little sweet wine.
So yummy on a big ol' piece of matzoh.
Give it a try…the kids'll beg for more!
3 apples, peeled, cored and chopped
1/2 cup chopped nuts, I like pecans
1/2 t ground cinnamon
1/4 cup honey
1/2 T lemon juice
1/3 cup sweet kosher for Passover wine, I like Manischewitz
In a medium bowl combine apples and pecans. Stir to combine. Sprinkle on cinnamon, honey, and lemon juice. Stir well. Add in your wine and stir again. Cover and refrigerate until ready to serve.
Serve on your seder plate or as a snack with matzoh.
Try and double or triple this recipe then keep it in the fridge. You can put it on top of cottage cheese or yogurt for a yummy breakfast or lunch treat!

Dubin and Bolyard checkmate RLC, defeat Ron Paul's principles
On Saturday, April 27, the Republican Liberty Caucus of Washington held its first Convention [at least the first of the current charter; the National RLC has been around (with appearing and disappearing State Charters) for more than 20 years].
The explosion of members in Washington State before the Convention might be attributed to a number of factors, but among them must be the salutary efforts of its leadership team, its chair, Sandi Belzer Brendale, and the resounding send-off given by the "Freedom Agenda" State legislators at the RLCWA Kickoff. That group, highlighted by Matt Shea, also included David Taylor, Jason Overstreet and Elizabeth Scott. Their speeches at the Kickoff were inspiring and so wonderfully out-of-character for politicians (they were principled), it is fair to call them astonishing.
But the key element in making the RLCWA (for a time) the fastest growing State Charter in America, in our opinion, was the vacuum left after the Ron Paul Presidential Campaign, by the Campaign for Liberty's top-down national leaders. The question continually asked during 2008 by anyone who saw the enormous raw strength of the movement was, "What happens to this political force when the campaign is over?" (more…)

King County is larger than 13 States, is the most liberal county in Washington, and regularly imposes, on the rest of the State, thinly disguised Marxist Politicians who go largely unchallenged by the King County Republicans (KCGOP).
The County has 2499 precincts. There are 2499 Republican Precinct Committee Offices established by Washington State Law. Only 1149 of those precincts are represented on the Republican Central Committee by officers elected on November 6, 2012 and certified by King County Elections.
On Saturday, December 8, only 457 of the 1149 showed up for the biannual Organization Meeting that is defined and mandated by State Law (RCW29A.80.030).

No man can save America, no President or any movement's leader. No Governor can save a State. Without the requisite mindset in the populace, all such "change" is illusory, all real improvement, temporary. Attempts to "plant democracy" without the cultural topsoil have failed all over the world. The question we face now is whether Liberty still has a habitat in American culture. The answer, based on Washington State Republican Party behavior, is murky. (more…)

Itinerary Announced for Elaine Paige's U.S. Tour; Olivier Winner Will Play NYC, Florida, California, New Jersey and More
By Andrew Gans
Olivier winner Elaine Paige, who played Carlotta in the Tony-nominated Broadway revival of Follies, will perform in concert in the U.S. in the coming months.
Paige's U.S. concert dates, according to her official website, follow.
Feb. 26 at the Mesa Arts Center in Mesa, AZ
In addition to her previously announced concerts in Scandinavia, Paige has also announced evenings in Berkshire UK (July 6 at the Littlecote House, Hungerford) and Herefordshire UK (November 16 at the Holme Lacy House, Holme Lacy).
To read a previous Playbill.com interview with Paige, click here.
Elaine Paige was brought to the public's attention when she created the role of Eva Peron in the original London production of Evita. She then created the role of Grizabella in the original production of Cats and followed with a recording hit: "I Know Him So Well," with Barbara Dickson, from the concept album of Chess.

After seeing TONS of reviews on this little powder, I headed out to Target nearly a year ago to pick one up & try it for myself. I tried it, didn't like it, & then kind of forgot all about it. I only recently discovered it once I cleaned out my powder drawer, & I realized it was only fair for me to give a review on this for you guys even if I wasn't pleased with it. I can't say I'm super mad at myself for buying it, because I was a whopping $4.50, so it's not like I'm out much - but still, I expected more from this powder. I heard that it was keeping other bloggers skin totally matte ALL day, so I was pretty excited to try it. But it just didn't do that for me.
I hope you all are having an awesome thanksgiving, because all of you deserve it! I'm thankful for all of you guys, that's for sure!

In August 2009, a Compassion Over Killing investigator worked inside an egg factory farm in Minnesota owned by Michael Foods, one of the nation's largest egg producers. While employed there, the investigator used a hidden camera to document horrific abuses including:
Minnesota-based Michael Foods supplies eggs to several national restaurant chains, including Dunkin' Donuts. Compassion Over Killing has reached out to Dunkin Donuts numerous times to inquire about the treatment of hens in its supply chain and to encourage the company to make meaningful changes for hens--and consumers--by making vegan donuts.
Dunkin Donuts has not yet taken this important issue seriously. Please ACT NOW by contacting Dunkin Donuts today!
Sarah Shields, PhD: Dr. Shields is an animal welfare expert who earned her PhD at the University of California in the Animal Behavior Program.
"It is disconcerting that live hens must share cage space with dead birds until the corpses are found and removed."
"The video also depicts several hens who have become trapped under the feeder or between loose wires in their cages. … Trapped birds who cannot extricate themselves can suffer from severe trauma and, if these birds are unable to reach feed or water, they may die a slow and painful death."
Read Dr. Shields' full statement.
Ian Duncan, PhD: Dr. Duncan is the Chair of Animal Welfare in the Department of Animal and Poultry Science at the University of Guelph (Canada).
"The most striking feature of the video is the large number of dead birds that are taken out of the cages. … [B]irds are removed that have been dead for a considerable time. The carcasses are covered in feces, and are rotting. In some cases, the carcasses are actually disintegrating which suggests that the birds have been dead in the cages for well over a week. In many cases the carcasses are very difficult to remove from the cages. This suggests that the hens may have been trapped while still alive and had a slow lingering death because they could not reach the food or water."
"All of this is evidence that the cages have not been adequately inspected for many days, perhaps even weeks."
"The hygiene of the eggs in this unit is also at great risk since newly-laid eggs are rolling over rotting carcasses."
"In summary, this video shows laying hens being kept under very bad conditions in which they are suffering enormously. … In my opinion the general public would absolutely refuse to eat eggs from a unit such as this."
Nedim Buyukmihci, VMD: Dr. Buyukmihci is an Emeritus Professor of Veterinary Medicine at the University of California, Davis.
"The cages contained many dead birds. Many of these birds had been long dead as evidenced by their mummified state and sometimes being in pieces. This would take several weeks to develop."
"These dead birds in particular emphasized the complete inadequacy of the methods used to check the condition of hens. … The welfare of the chickens at this facility was compromised as a result of this failure to properly observe the hens. Moreover, dead chickens were left among the living for long periods of time. These bodies can be a source of contagion and compromise the health of the living chickens."
"There is no question, therefore, that the manner in which the chickens depicted in the video were treated was cruel by an normal definition of the word and violated norms of conduct with respect to animal welfare and veterinary care."

The year was 1966. It's a game Spence McCracken will never forget. It's a game he can remember like it was yesterday. It was the first year Alabama had a high school playoff and a championship game. Two powers from Montgomery, Lee and Lanier would face off for a second time that year at Cramton Bowl.
"46 years ago and it seems like yesterday," McCracken said. He was the starting center at Lee High School. He went on to play at Auburn and then was a head coach for more than 30 years in Montgomery and Opelika. All those years, all those games, but this one is a game he'll never forget. "It was a big deal Lee vs. Lanier, kinda like Auburn and Alabama now."
When he pulls out the old VHS tape he can name the plays and the players. "It gives me chills to think about it." It turns out he played a crucial role in the game. He got a penalty late in the game as Lee was close to scoring. The next play Lanier intercepted the ball and won the game 9-7. "That play will always haunt me."
Even though his team lost the game, it's an experience he wouldn't trade for anything. "You learn more about life playing football than any other game on earth, it teaches you how to be a man, it's a tough game for tough people."
And while high school players today have that same dream of playing for a state championship, he has this advice. "Remember this guys, only one team wins it all, so don't get all caught up in the wins and losses, enjoy the journey."
And his journey continues too. After retiring in 2008, he's now back in coaching working with the offense at St. James in Montgomery.

A sinkhole caused a section of a central Florida resort villa to partially collapse early Monday, while another section of the villa was sinking, authorities said.
About 30 percent of the three-story structure collapsed around 3 a.m. Monday, Lake County Fire Rescue Battalion Chief Tony Cuellar said. A small part of the suspected sinkhole is visible on the north side of Building 104. The villa at the Summer Bay Resort had already been evacuated and no injuries were reported. Cuellar said authorities were also concerned about another section of the villa, which was sinking.
The sinkhole comes five months after one elsewhere in Florida killed a man.
Monday's sinkhole, which is in the middle of the villa, is about 60 feet in diameter, according to one fire official. He said authorities think it was getting deeper but couldn't tell early Monday if it was growing outward.
The villa houses 24 units and about 20 people were staying in it at the time, Cuellar said.

As for how she keeps the fringe so flawless, Fetherston said that she now cuts them herself, ideally EVERY DAY:"This is the story of how I first came to acquire perfect bangs," said Fetherston. "I lived in Paris for a long time, and I was introduced to a magnificent hairdresser — an Australian man whose name was David Mallett. He said "If we're going to have a relationship you're going to need to come here every week. You're representing my work." He's not a diva, he was just scared. So I would come by once a week. He would wash, blowdry, get it really straight, and then he would have me stand up against the wall. It was very intense. He would literally snip hair by hair by hair. And then he would sit down, blow it, have me stand up. It would be this dance going on and on. Sometimes he would get it in one shot, other times it would be bad. It was like sex. Like, "Do you think it looks straight?" "I don't know, do you?"
"To me, it depends on what kind of hair you have, but the secret is don't use the brush too much. If you have a blowdryer, you need to get a nozzle on it that comes to a very thin, razor sharp slit. The smaller the slit the better. Your head has a curve. Here at the curve is where things can go wonky with the bangs. Just take the hairdryer and shoot that air super hot, not even using a brush. The power of the air and the heat through that razor slit just pushes them down. Within two minutes you can get them straight. Don't use a round brush. Then you just have to have a steady hand. I start between my eyebrow and my eyelash."Last piece of advice before wrapping up and getting down to the celebration at hand? "Wind is not your friend. Carry a comb and hairspray."
T3 Featherweight Dryer, $200
L'Oreal Elnett Extra StrongHold UV Hair Spray, $14
Here's how to get it:
1. Start by separating the front of the hair from the back. Tease the front section, and pull back slightly to one side, securing with an elastic at the crown. Be sure to focus on keeping the front poufy, and use a comb to lightly tame any roughness.
2. Next, curl the back portion of the hair and pull back into a ponytail directly below the ponytail you created in the previous step.
3. Spritz the style with hairspray to hold. Tip: for an added touch, twist two to three skinny-sized sections from the top ponytail and pin each under the bottom ponytail.
Looking for something a little more polished, yet still want to be cool? Take a cue from some of our favorite celebs and copy their stylish summer braids!
To create the retro style, Campora first applied Fekkai Full Blown Volume Styling Whip ($23), and blow-dried Megan's hair using a round brush. After creating a deep side part, he used a one-inch barrel curing iron and set the curl into pin curls to cool. After about 15 minutes, he took out the pin curls and brushed them out until they were perfectly placed over her dress. Finally, Campora spritzed on Fekkai Coiff Sheer Hold Hairspray ($35) for lasting hold.

Catlin Gabel School Hosts Portland's First Student-Driven High School Diversity And Leadership Conference, 350 Students Expected To Attend
Press Release
Mar 12, 2003
For Immediate Release
Contact: Langley Allbritton
Catlin Gabel School Hosts Portland's First Student-Driven High School Diversity And Leadership Conference, 350 Students Expected To Attend
Jesuit, Madison, Wilson, LaSalle, Central Catholic, David Douglas, Centennial, Portland Youth Builders, Lincoln and Lake Oswego High School Confirmed; St. Mary's, Jefferson, Southridge, Grant, Cleveland, Roosevelt, And Beaverton Expected To Attend
The Catlin Gabel School, dedicated to excellence in education, today announced it will host Portland's first student-driven high school diversity conference, From Words To Action, on March 14 and March 15. Three hundred and fifty students from all over Portland will come together for two days to think independently, connect with each other and speak freely on topics including the racial divide, religious intolerance, socioeconomic issues, intercultural connections, and challenges faced by gay and lesbian youth in schools.
The rigorous workshop, designed and implemented by participating students, aims to empower and encourage youth to think about how they can make a positive difference in the communities in which they live.
On Friday, March 14th, every student has an opportunity to contribute, each will be assigned to an "Action Group" and provided a topic to discuss, which focuses on Gender, Race, Sexual Orientation, Religion, Intercultural Understanding, and Socioeconomic concerns. In addition, students who would like an introduction to diversity issues may also choose Diversity 101, an introduction to issues of equity and social justice. During the Action Group phase of the conference, students and adults will be led through a series of questions by facilitators to discuss problems, share ideas, and arrive at solutions. For the most part, specific groups will create their own questions about issues relating to their Action Group to bring back to their schools. After lunch, students will report back their findings to the entire group and have a town hall-type meeting, called Critical Response.
Special guests:
Chicora Martin, Director of Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual and Transgender education at the University of Oregon, will deliver the first keynote address. Martin will address gender identity, multiple identity, multiethnic/queer identity, oppression and privilege, ally building and body image. She currently sits on the board of the American College Personnel Association's Standing Committee for LGBT Concerns and serves as one of the National Association of Student Personal Administrator Regional Knowledge Community Chair for LGBT Issues.
Johnny Lake, an adjunct professor at Willamette University and certified national trainer in gender equality and multiculturalism, will deliver the second keynote. Lake's speech will focus on addressing the institutional nature of racism, prejudice and discrimination in our society. He will also address equity issues in the classroom related to gender and achievement.
On Saturday, March 15th, student leaders will be invited to attend a special diversity leadership conference that begins at 9:30 a.m. at Catlin Gabel. Students will then be divided into three smaller groups to discuss topics including Diversity Leadership, Global Leadership and Facilitative Leadership. After an hour lunch break, students will participate in a leadership roundtable discussion with community leaders.
Workshop Schedule:
Friday, March 14, Student Diversity Conference, 8:00 a.m. to 3:00 p.m.
Friday, March 14, Student Diversity Conference Dance, 8:30 p.m. to 11:30 p.m.
Saturday, March 15, Student Leadership Workshop, 9:30 a.m. to 3:00 p.m.
The Catlin Gabel School, including the faculty, staff, and Trustee committee on diversity, The Ubuntu Council, is hosting the entire conference.

Club Description: The Johnson County 4-H Horse club is a community club with a primary focus on the horse project. We offer a lot of opportunities for members from 7 to 18, and you don't have to own a horse to belong to our club. We have a number of members who are in the Horseless Horse project which means they can still learn all about horses, show in our shows with loaned or leased horses, and participate in quiz bowl and judging events. Our club meets the first Wednesday of each month at 6:30 p.m. at the Extension office in Olathe.
As a club, we try to have four 4-H horse shows a year and we put on a large Circuit show annually to raise funds for club activities and year-end awards. We provide educational experiences throughout the year; for example: showmanship clinics, racing clinics, attendance at American Royal events, Equifest in Wichita, the Nebraska Horse Fair, and visits to local horse farms. We also plan a lot of fun events like an annual sleep over, trail rides and we even have a drill team that practices in the summer and performs at the County Fair. Our members participate in several community service projects during the year and we encourage the older members to practice leadership skills by teaching younger members and becoming club committee leaders and officers.
Our members actively participate in County Club Days, horse quiz bowls, horse judging events, and 4-H camps, both as a group and individually.
Our club has an active group of members participating in dog training and showing. We offer classes during the winter/spring that concludes with a graduation show. The dog project and training sessions are open to all 4-H members, regardless of age and experience.
Many of our members participate in other 4-H projects such as photography, sheep, goats, swine, cattle, rabbits, poultry, sewing, crafts, woodworking, etc. We will assist you in finding the appropriate leaders in any area you wish to explore.
Our club welcomes new members. For more information contact one of our community leaders: Sheri McCracken (913)558-4037 or Greta Wakefield (913)558-3092.
