The Yellow Jackets junior RB could have a breakout season on the national stage.
Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets guard Omoregie Uzzi has been out of action since the teams Sun Bowl appearance and also sat out spring practice due to various injuries. On Thursday, Uzzi announced that he is back and will be ready to play this season, and during his time off Uzzi has dropped down to 307 pounds and is looking good.
Uzzi was also named to the 2012 Outland Trophy watch list that is handed out to the nation's best interior lineman:
"I really appreciate the attention and support that people give me for [awards]," he said, "but I'm a guy that tries to take things step by step, little by little, one drill at a time, one play at a time, one series at a time and hopefully that'll turn into winning games, championships, all the things that we all want to get."
Uzzi earned a spot on the watch list for being a two-time All-ACC selection, and of the 71 players nominated he is one of 20 guards to be nominated.

Georgia Tech's Dan Radakovich denies being targeted for the Texas A&M job.
Georgia Tech's incoming recruiting class is scheduled to report to campus on Wednesday to begin becoming acclimated to college life and to start preparing for the upcoming season. Players will be moving into their dorms and getting fitted for equipment while also preparing to start school. Summer-session classes are scheduled to begin on Monday.
All of the Yellow Jackets 2011 recruiting class are expected to report besides running back Dennis Andrews who enrolled in January and defensive lineman Adam Gotsis who is coming from Australia. Tech anticipates Gotsis being cleared and arriving later this summer.
Once the freshman arrive they will be allowed to participate in the offseason strength and conditioning program as well as seven on seven passing sessions.

Georgia Tech football coach Paul Johnson expects to have his entire 2012 recruiting class on campus by the time fall practice starts and doesn't anticipate having any academic issues.
The Yellow Jackets signed 17 players last February with Dennis Andrews enrolling early. Johnson expects 15 members of the class to be on campus by the time summer school starts on June 20. The lone exception being defensive tackle Adam Gotsis who is in Australia and is still being processed by the school.
"Yes, I think everybody is good to go with admissions," Johnson told the AJC. "We may have an issue with [Gotsis] because of all the paperwork with him being an international student. Georgia Tech normally doesn't allow foreign students to come in early. They usually come in when school starts, so we're working on that. [Gotsis] will be here when camp starts for sure. He just may not be here in summer school."

Looking to avoid the sweltering late summer heat Georgia Tech requested some night games for the early portion of its 2012 season. The ACC granted the request by setting the first three games of the Yellow Jackets' season for at least 3:30 p.m. starts.
The Yellow Jackets will open the season on Monday, September 3 in Blacksburg against Virginia Tech in a nationally televised matchup on ESPN. Tech will open the home portion of its schedule five days later against Presbyterian which is now scheduled to start at 7 p.m. on ESPN3.
The only game in September that kickoff hasn't been announced as of yet is the September 22 matchup with Miami.
Here is a look at the early portion of the Yellow Jackets' schedule:
Monday, September 3 - At Virginia Tech - 8 p.m. ESPN
Saturday, September 8 - Presbyterian - 7 p.m. ESPN3
Saturday, September 15 - Virginia - 3:30 p.m. ESPNU
Saturday, September 22 - Miami - TBA
Saturday, September 29 - Middle Tennessee State - 7 p.m.

Former Auburn offensive lineman and Pope High product Thomas O'Reilly transferred to Georgia Tech and officially enrolled on Wednesday. O'Reilly picked the Tigers over the Yellow Jackets originally but cited "playing opportunities and scheme changes" as his reasons for deciding to transfer.
O'Reilly will sit out the 2012 season and then have three years of eligibility remaining. At 6-foot-3, 325 pounds, he will fit nicely into Tech's picture on the offensive line starting next season. He is a former AJC Super 11 selection and the first to enroll at Tech since 2009.
O'Reilly's transfer continues a wave of good news for the football program who landed a commitment from 4-star offensive lineman Shamire Devine on Wednesday. Devine is regarded by many as the top offensive lineman in the state.

Things could be picking up for the Yellow Jackets on the recruiting front after they landed a commitment on Wednesday from Tri-Cities High School product Shamire Devine who is regarded by many as the State's No. 1 prospect at offensive line. Devine is a 4-star recruit and is ranked as the No. 19 offensive line prospect in the country.
Devine cited academic opportunities as Tech as the deciding factor in his decision. He wants to pursue a degree in Computer Engineering and Programming.
"Florida State was ranked in the top 10 in computers, while Georgia Tech was in the top three. So I chose the school with the best academics. I don't really care about the football part. I just want the best degree I can get, as far as the field I want to study. That's Georgia Tech."
Devine will reportedly still take two more official visits to other schools which could make Yellow Jackets head coach Paul Johnson cringe. He plans to visit Kentucky and Florida State but says he is 100 percent committed to the Yellow Jackets. Johnson in the past has frowned on committed prospects continuing to visit other schools so stay tuned on that front.

Dublin Ohio's Donovon Wilson became Georgia Tech's second football commitment for its class of 2013 on Tuesday. Wilson is a 3-star running back and also had offers from Purdue, Boston College and Ohio.
Wilson had taken an unofficial visit to Tech earlier this month and was waiting for a scholarship offer. That offer finally came on Tuesday and it took Wilson a mere three hours to pledge his commitment.
"This was the offer I had been waiting on, I went through my practices, thought about it hard, talked to my parents, and made the decision to commit."
Both of Georgia Tech's commitments for the 2013 season are running backs with Wilson joining Lovejoy High's Travis Custus. Those worrying that the Yellow Jackets are way behind in recruiting this offseason should recognize that they are only expected to sign about 15 recruits this season due to roster limitations.

The conference becomes the latest to cash in on the growing popularity of sports broadcast rights on TV.
The Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets continue to train and prepare for their 2012 football season. It now appears as though they may have an unexpected addition to their team by the time fall rolls around.
According to Michael Carvell of the Atlanta Journal-Constitution, Auburn Tigers offensive lineman Thomas O'Reilly has decided he will transfer away from the school this year. One of his potential destinations is Georgia Tech. O'Reilly attended Pope High School and would likely play offensive guard if he were to become a Yellow Jacket.
O'Reilly was injured during his freshman season and was unable to play in the 2011 season. Per NCAA rules, O'Reilly will be ineligible to play in the 2012 season no matter what school he decides to transfer to. He would have three years of eligibility remaining beginning in 2013.

The Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets are going to have a really impressive running game with their combination of a sound offensive line and defensive backs Orwin Smith and David Sims running behind them. But will that be enough to put them in the top 25?
The National Football Post thinks so. It does pose the question, however, of how the Yellow Jackets will replace wide receiver Stephen Hill who left for the NFL this season. After Hill, Georgia Tech's next productive receiver was Smith, who caught the ball out of the backfield as a running back, meaning the Yellow Jackets effectively had no second option or No. 2 receiver at all.
This from the Post, ranking Georgia Tech at No. 20:
The Yellow Jackets will be dominant offensively once again next year with quarterback Tevin Washington and backs Orwin Smith and David Sims working behind an intact offensive line. But who will replace big-play receiver Stephen Hill? Al Groh's defense must continue to make strides.

Tyler Kidney has been disciplined by head football coach Paul Johnson for his involvement in a fight at a tech fraternity house. Kidney is to complete 25 hours of community service, complete extra conditioning work and write letters of apology to the students involved said Johnson in his statement.
"I am extremely disappointed in Tyler Kidney's actions on the night of April 13 and have spoken to him about the consequences of his poor decision-making," Johnson said in the statement. "This is an unfortunate incident and is not reflective of Tyler's attitude and actions during the time he has been in our program."
Kidney is listed as a 6-foot-2, 262 pound offensive lineman who walked on to the Tech football team and earned a scholarship last fall. He started six games last season and is in competition for a starting job this season.

The Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets put an exclamation mark on spring practice Friday night bringing things to a close with its annual spring game. The White team exploded in the second half to win 31-7.
The first-half was uneventful with the White team taking a 3-0 lead into the break on a David Scully field goal. Safety Corey Dennis started the scoring in the second-half by scooping up a fumble and returning it for a touchdown. From there the offense got in gear with each of the Yellow Jackets' three quarterbacks playing a role.
Tevin Washington led the White team to a 17-0 lead with a one yard touchdown run. Redshirt freshman Vlad Lee led the White team on its next drive mostly with his arm. Lee hit Deon Hill with a 47-yard pass to put the White team in business again. Later in the drive Lee hit Tony Zenon across the middle for a touchdown and a 24-0 lead for the White team.
Synjyn Days was questionable to play but ended up leading both teams in rushing with 79 yards on 15 carries. Davis scored the only touchdown for the Gold Team on a quarterback keeper to make the score 24-7. The White team answered back with another touchdown pass from Vlad Lee this time to senior Chris Jackson to make the score 31-7.
Washington rushed for 67 yards and threw for 46 more. Lee completed 9 of 17 passes for 120 yards and two touchdowns in the game. Days was 5 of 15 passing for 71 yards and had that team-high 79 yards rushing.

The Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets will wrap up spring practice on Friday night with their annual spring football game.
Georgia Tech backup quarterback Synjyn Days was slated to receive the bulk of the snaps during Georgia Tech's spring football game Friday evening, but could miss the entire game with a wrist injury suffered in Wednesday's practice, according to the AJC.
That doesn't leave the Jackets wanting in the QB department, though - If Days misses the game, Tevin Washington, Vad Lee, early enrolee Dennis Andrews and walk-on transfer Tim Byerly could all see additional time. Days saw limited action as a redshirt freshman in 2011, rushing for 100 yards and scoring two touchdowns, but is expected to push Washington for the starting job come fall.
Guard Shaquille Mason could also miss the spring game (undisclosed injury), dropping the available number of linemen to ten total for both squads.

Imagine this: a Georgia Tech offense coached by Paul Johnson in which a quarterback takes a snap from several yards behind his center, as in from the shotgun formation. Sounds crazy, right?
Perhaps not as much as you would think.
The entire Georgia Tech offense is working to diversify its look this offseason, and that includes the exploration of, yes, shotgun snaps.
Johnson admitted as such, saying, "We've been working on it all spring. It's something we put a lot of it in for the bowl game. We just didn't do it."
The Yellow Jackets have been amongst the nation's top running teams since Johnson assumed the role as head coach, although the implementation of shotgun sets could help maximize the talent at receiver the program has been able to produce despite its ground game focus.
Georgia Tech finished 8-5 in 2011.

Running back Travis Custis has verbally committed to play football for Paul Johnson at Georgia Tech, according to a report.
Custis is a local product who stars at Hampton (Ga.) Lovejoy high school, the alma mater of former Yellow Jackets running back Tashard Choice - now of the Buffalo Bills.
He'll line up as the B-Back in Johnson's flex bone offense, and Bud Elliott of SB Nation compares his running style to Jamaal Anderson - the former Atlanta Falcon who played collegiately at Utah.
The first Georgia Tech recruit for the class of 2013, Custis claims to have also had offers from Boston College, Michigan State, Miami, Mississippi State and South Florida, while receiving additional interest from Clemson, Kentucky and Vanderbilt.
As a junior, Custis posted season total of 1,870 yards and 32 touchdowns.

Georgia Tech's defensive unit may be without one of its most counted on contributors as it appears that a neck injury could end the career of Yellow Jackets' linebacker Julian Burnett. Head coach Paul Johnson confirmed the news following Tech's opening spring practice.
"He's a heck of a competitor and a good football player, but there's bigger things in life than football," Johnson said. "You've got to be safe."
Burnett suffered the injury against Utah in the Sun Bowl at the end of the 2011 season. Johnson also indicated that Burnett would be placed on a medical scholarship which means he will be ineligible to play in the upcoming season. He is expected to remain with the team and be involved in some capacity.
Burnett led the Yellow Jackets in tackles during the 2011 season and was a second-team All-ACC selection.

The Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets opened spring practice on Monday and already may have lost one of their key defensive players for the upcoming season. WSB's Zach Klein reports that Yellow Jackets head coach Paul Johnson said after the first practice that linebacker Julian Burnett would probably miss the entire upcoming season due to an undisclosed injury.
After 1st spring practice #tech hc Paul Johnson said LB Julian Burnett is "probably not going to play" this season. Medical/injury— Zach Klein (@ZachKleinWSB) March 26, 2012
As a junior, Burnett had 120 total tackles while playing in all 13 games for Georgia Tech. He is expected to be one of the leaders of the defense as a senior in 2012. Burnett had 10 total tackles in Tech's loss to Georgia and had seven more in the Sun Bowl against Utah.

The Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets begin spring football practices on Monday, with their spring game scheduled for April 20. That's a Friday, making Tech one of only about a dozen teams to conclude spring action on a day besides Saturday. Friday night in Atlanta, y'all.
The biggest story this spring centers on whether Vad Lee (or Synjyn Days) can unseat Tevin Washington as starting quarterback. While Washington feasted on lesser competition last year, he seemed to take quite a beating as the year went on, and his arm all but vanished. Days' numbers in mop-up duty were superior to Washington's last year, while Tech fans have been excited about Lee for years now.
Does Tech have another receiver like Stephen Hill, who was capable of capturing even the ugliest passes (and, well, dropping some pretty ones)? It's quite literally impossible to even guess, since Tech returns zero receivers with any catches from last year. The four returning players with catches are all running backs. At least Orwin Smith is pretty good at football in general.
That offensive line, which has lacked depth for a couple seasons, should start to solidify despite the loss of starter Phil Smith. Omoregie Uzzi, Tech's best player, returns.
On defense, Al Groh still needs to find a true nose tackle. If T.J. Barnes can finally assume the role, then life would be easier for Tech's solid crew of linebackers led by Julian Burnett and Jeremiah Attaochu. The secondary, like the offensive line, should also finally enjoy a little depth, as four of last year's top five defensive backs return, including Rod Sweeting and Isaiah Johnson.

Paul Johnson has never been accused of refusing to think outside of the box, and he did it again Thursday, as Georgia Tech hired Dave Walkowsky, whose last job was a defensive coordinator for the CFL's Calgary Stampede, to be their new special teams coach.
While the CFL has a very distinct set of rules, particularly on special teams, Walkowsky shouldn't have too hard a time adjusting, as he has spent most of his 20-year coaching career south of the border.
A walk-on who became a starting safety at Toledo, he's spent most of his career in the collegiate ranks, coaching every unit on the defensive side of the ball as well as special teams in stops at Washington State, Toledo, Tennessee-Martin, Waynesburg College and Memphis.
He was the head coach at Tiffin University, a Division II school in Ohio, for three seasons before joining the Stampeders' staff last season.

After an almost interminable series of delays that resulted from the latest batch of conference re-alignment, the ACC finally released its 2012 football schedule Monday.
Once Georgia Tech's game against Virginia Tech was moved up to Labor Day for TV purposes, the Yellow Jackets held up the schedule's release so they wouldn't have to face Middle Tennessee State in a non-conference game the week after.
Instead, they moved the MTSU game to Sep. 29 while playing a home game against Presbyterian College, an FCS team from South Carolina, on Sep. 9.
- Sept. 3 at Virginia Tech (Monday), ESPN, 8 pm
- Sept. 8 PRESBYTERIAN
- Sept. 15 VIRGINIA
- Sept. 22 MIAMI
- Sept. 29 MIDDLE TENNESSEE
- Oct. 6 at Clemson
- Oct. 13 OPEN
- Oct. 20 BOSTON COLLEGE
- Oct. 27 BYU
- Nov. 3 at Maryland
- Nov. 10 at North Carolina
- Nov. 17 DUKE
Nov. 24 at Georgia
The curse of the even year strikes again for the Yellow Jackets, as they are playing Virginia Tech, Clemson, and Georgia on the road.
Their most intriguing home date could be their Oct. 27 non-conference game against BYU. The Cougars, despite becoming an independent after leaving the Mountain West in 2010, have been one of the most consistent non-AQ programs in college football under Bronco Mendenhall.
ACC football fans in the Atlanta area will be treated to two ACC/SEC clashes to open the season in the Georgia Dome, with NC State playing Tennessee on August 31 and Clemson facing Auburn on Sep. 1 as part of the Chick-fil-A Kickoff.

The ACC might possibly release its 2012 football schedule this week, as early as Monday. No, seriously you guys, they absolutely mean it (kind of) this time.
Georgia Tech's associate athletic director Wayne Hogan confirmed to the AJC that the Jackets had finished off their schedule by finding an opponent for the Sept. 8 date, but he ain't telling who. Tech was involved in one of two delays that's kept the ACC schedule at a Guns & Roses studio effort's pace this winter.
First, West Virginia backed out of a game with Florida State on Sept. 8 to join the Big 12, and then Georgia Tech's game against Virginia Tech was moved to Labor Day to accommodate TV requests, throwing a monkey wrench in their previous plans to play Middle Tennessee State the following week. GT preferred to play a FCS opponent on the short turnaround.
As of now, the Labor Day game at Virginia Tech is public, as is Tech's home game against BYU on October 27. The rest is a mystery, but maybe for not too much longer...

If the 2012 ACC football schedule isn't released soon, it's going to have more release dates than Dr. Dre's "Detox" album, which has been "on the way" since 2002. According to the AJC, the latest hold-up comes from Georgia Tech, who need to delay the schedule at least one more week in order to figure out their non-conference opponents. Tomahawk Nation also reports that the schedule won't be released until next week.
If the Yellow Jackets play Virginia Tech on Labor Day, they don't want to face a non-conference opponent who can take advantage of the short week following a Monday night game.
The list of acceptable opponents apparently does not include Middle Tennessee State, the Sun Belt team Georgia Tech initially scheduled, and who are coming off a 2-10 season in 2011.
It's been reported that the Yellow Jackets are trying to either move the MTSU game or schedule a second non-conference game against an FCS team in its place.
To be fair, it's understandable why Paul Johnson wants to ensure a second guaranteed win out-of-conference given that his team is facing both Georgia and BYU in 2012.
Still waiting on your favorite ACC team's 2012 football slate to be revealed? Blame Big Eas... er, Big 12 member West Virginia, who could still face a lawsuit after bailing on Florida State for a non-conference series scheduled to begin in September.
The league is either being super nice to the Seminoles, or just a little gun shy in not revealing its 2012 schedule with a simple "TBD" included for the non-conference game on FSU's schedule (similar "in-progress" reveals have been done this offseason for new SEC members Texas A&M and Missouri, as well as the "new" Big 12).
The likeliest situation for FSU is that they'll plug in an opponent from what's left of the 2012 Big East, which will feature only seven teams (and WHAT an Orange Bowl it's gonna be!). Those schools are scrambling to replace the Mountaineers among others, and would likely take a high-profile series with the 'Noles. Louisville played a one-and-one FSU in recent years.

In a press release Thursday, the ACC indicated they understood fan's frustrations with the delay in the release of the 2012 football schedule, but things beyond their control, i.e. conference realignment, have made finalizing the schedule difficult:
We at the Atlantic Coast Conference realize that there's tremendous anticipation for the release of the 2012 ACC Football schedule. The conference office and member institutions are equally in anticipation and are taking steps to expedite finding appropriate solutions. As has been documented, there are a number of unusual circumstances beyond the control of the ACC and its member schools that have directly impacted a number of our school's nonconference schedules, which in turn effects the development and completion of the overall schedule. Please know that all parties are working diligently and we appreciate everyone's continued patience.
But while fellow Big East refugee West Virginia paid a huge settlement with the conference in order to join the Big 12 for the 2012 season, it doesn't appear right now that either Pittsburgh or Syracuse will be making a similar jump to the ACC this season.
The Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets will host BYU on Saturday, October 27 at Bobby Dodd Stadium in Atlanta.
The Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets will look to host the BYU Cougars on their 2012 schedule, and an announcement will come out later today what the actual date of the game will be.
BYU recently released their pending 2012 football schedule and there are a couple of potential dates that Georgia Tech could look to host the Cougars later in the Fall. BYU currently has four weeks of open scheduling available between the week of October 24 and November 24, and the Cougars only have games between the Yellow Jackets and the Idaho Vandals left to schedule for the season.
Couple BYU finishing with a 10-3 record last year along with Georgia Tech finishing with an 8-5 record with relatively young teams, and this could look to be a marquee matchup between two ranked foes. Lets keep our fingers crossed.

Georgia Tech awaits word from the NCAA on recruiting violations committed by now former offensive line coach Todd Spencer.
The addition of Pittsburgh and Syracuse means a nine-game conference football schedule and a rotating "group" system for basketball.
The Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets received letters of intent from 17 different players on Wednesday but come in as part of the bottom half of the ACC conference according to Rivals.com. The Yellow Jackets class is currently ranked No. 10 out of the 12-team ACC conference ahead of only Boston College and Wake Forest.
Tech suffered a major blow when it lost offensive line recruit Will Adams to Auburn and defensive end prospect Dalvin Tomlinson to Alabama. Rivals rated Tech's class as having two four-star recruits and 13 of the three-star in the 17 man class.
Florida State took top honors in the conference and is followed Miami's huge 33 player class. Clemson checks in at No. 3 and is followed by Virginia Tech and Virginia in the top five. North Carolina comes in at No. 6 and is followed by Maryland, Duke and North Carolina State as teams all in front of the Jackets.

The Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets finally got some good news in the afternoon, with the addition of three-star linebacker Beau Hankins making up for at least a part of the loss of Will Adams to the Auburn Tigers and the miss of local four-star Dalvin Tomlinson, plus the loss of co-offensive line coach Todd Spencer due to a NCAA recruiting violation.
Tech has 17 letters of intent in the bag, with the defensive front seven getting perhaps the biggest boost. Four-star defensive end Francis Kallon leads the new defensive linemen, while four-star athlete/quarterback and Alabama decommit Justin Thomas may be the biggest name.

According to the Georgia Tech official athletic site, the Yellow Jackets annual spring football game will be played on Friday, April 20 in Bobby Dodd Stadium. The game has been on Saturday afternoon for several years and the Friday-night game is somewhat of a break from tradition, but athletic director Wayne Hogan says that the players are looking forward to playing under the lights.
"We anticipate this being a great event for our fans," associate athletic director Wayne Hogan said. "With activities being planned for both pre- and post-game, this will be a mini-festival that should be a lot of fun for our fans, alumni and students.
"The feedback from our players is that they will be excited to play a game under the lights at Bobby Dodd Stadium."
The pre-game activities are scheduled to start at 7 p.m. on Callaway Plaza and the game, which doesn't have an official start time yet, is expected to start at 7:30 or 7:45. There will also be post-game activities, including a fireworks display.

Last week reports surfaced that the Virginia Tech Hokies and the Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets could square off in a Labor Day duel as a new way to kickoff conference play. According to reports, the schedule has been locked in and the two tech schools will face off on September 3rd.

The first game of the season now adds an extra layer of importance and preparation that Yellow Jackets head coach Paul Johnson will have to deal with. Both teams should be ranked prior to the game so look for this battle to be placed right in the middle of college football's opening weekend prime time schedule.

After being dismissed from the Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets football team on the heal of two suspensions for undisclosed violations, offensive linean Phil Smith is transferring to the University of Central Florida Knights football team, where he is expected to play right away. Smith missed the first two games of the 2011 season due to a suspension, and he was sent home before the team took the field in the Sun Bowl for another violation before the team decided to pull the plug. Neither violation has been made public.
Due to NCAA rules, a player who graduates from one school and transfers to another to pursue a graduate degree that isn't offered in at the first school is eligible immediately. Smith plans to graduate from Georgia Tech this spring and then enroll at UCF in May.
"I wanted to go to place where I'd be able to play, had the graduated programs that I was interested in, which for me was marketing, sports management, [health care management]," Smith said.
The two teams have a completely different style of offense. Georgia Tech runs an option-based offense while the Knights run a pro-style offense. Still, Smith believes he's athletic enough to fit in and make an impact this season.
"I feel like I'm athletic enough to make the change and I don't think that will be the issue," Smith said. "I feel like the issue will be learning the playbook."

The extent of the injury to the Macon product, which occurred during the first half of the 2011 Sun Bowl, is still unclear at this point.
After being sent home from the Sun Bowl, Phil Smith's time as a Yellow Jacket is officially over.
Georgia Tech and the ACC are in talks to potentially move the Jackets' game against Virginia Tech in Blacksburg to Labor Day Monday.
NFL draft analysts may disagree, but Georgie Tech wide receiver Stephen Hill, who announced he would be leaving the Yellow Jackets for the 2012 draft, believes he can raise his stock and become one of the top wide receivers in upcoming draft.
This season, Hill caught 28 passes for 820 yards and five touchdowns. He averages 29.3 yards per catch, which shows he has the big play ability that many NFL teams look for in the draft, especially if the receiver has Hill's 6-foot-5, 206-pound frame. However, Hill also dropped a few passes this season.
According to The Atlanta Journal-Constitution, Hill's scouting report says he doesn't have the potential to be selected in the first three rounds of the 2012 draft, but Hill believes he can raise his stock in the coming months.
"With my size and my ability, I know I could raise my stock," he said.
One good place for him to do so would be the NFL Combine where he should showcase his size and speed. Hill has until Jan. 18 to withdraw his name from the draft, but after talking it over with his parents and his coaches at Georgia Tech, he says that's not going to happen.
Stephen Hill is leaving Georgia Tech and entering the 2012 NFL Draft.
For Paul Johnson, these are the type of distractions that you never want to deal with going into your final game of the season. Yet, the Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets head coach has sent home another one of his players due to "violating team rules."

Redshirt sophomore tackle Tyler Kidney would be next in line to start for the Georgia Tech offense.
Nine days earlier, Johnson had announced that Yellow Jackets starting CB Louis Young would be also held out of the Sun Bowl for "disciplinary reasons" and that punishment could extend into next season. Smith could face a similar fate going into his senior season in 2012.

At his press conference Monday, Georgia Tech coach Paul Johnson announced that Yellow Jackets starting CB Louis Young will be held out of the Sun Bowl for "disciplinary reasons", although he declined to elaborate what exactly that meant:
"We'll see," Johnson said. "For now, he's not eligible for the bowl game."
The 6'1 201 sophomore was a highly regarded national recruit, racking up 51 tackles and 1 interception for the Yellow Jackets this season.
He'll be replaced in the starting line-up by Jemea Thomas, a 5'10 190 sophomore who had 3 interceptions this year.
Young's absence should not be a huge deal against Utah, a team that relies primarily on their ground game offensively. The Utes starting QB, Jon Hays, threw only nine touchdown passes all season.
However, Johnson left open the possibility that Young's punishment may extend into next season as well.

Nancy Rappaport, MD, is a child and adolescent psychiatrist who works in the Cambridge, Massachusetts public school system and an assistant professor at Harvard University. Dr. Rappaport is also the author of In Her Wake: A Child Psychiatrist Explores the Mystery of Her Mother's Suicide.

Spanish giants Barcelona and Real Madrid were both held in La Liga as they battled to unconvincing draws.
Sometimes soccer can seem a very simple sport. The great Dutch coach Rinus Michels, the father of the Total Football school of the late sixties and early seventies and the man who took that style of soccer to Barcelona, believed that his side should always play one more defender than the other team had attackers. If the opponent played three up, Michels liked four back; if two up, then three back. To an extent, that has been the theoretical orthodoxy ever since.
Editor's note: This is Part 4 of a four-part imaginary tournament between 16 of the all-time greatest club teams in soccer history. Parts 1, 2 and 3 can be found here.
Barcelona striker Lionel Messi has hailed the performance of his teammates after the Spanish giants beat Manchester United 3-1 at Wembley on Saturday to lift their third Champions League trophy in six seasons.
On the eve of the Champions League final, here's how Barcelona and Manchester United's projected starting lineups stack up against each other:
Barcelona's team we know; Manchester United's is a matter of speculation, a fact that, in itself, is indicative of two things. First, that Barcelona is the favorite, with such a defined and familiar style of play that, even in this age of rotation, it is possible, as with the greats of the past, to rattle through a first eleven.
There are many things that set this Barcelona team apart from its predecessors. But one which hasn't often been highlighted -- and which is truly striking -- is that this is a more settled side than any other Champions League finalist in recent years. Not just by a little: by a lot.
The tradition of French players at Barcelona is not a strong one. Ludovic Giuly (2006) and Thierry Henry (2009) may have won the Champions League with the club, but more often the story is one of high hopes and failed expectations: Richard Dutruel, Philippe Christanval, Christophe Dugarry and Emmanuel Petit.
Barcelona need just one point to win Spain's La Liga for the third straight year after a 2-0 win over neighbors Espanyol Sunday night.

Ask anybody who's done it, and they'll tell you that sustaining success is much harder than achieving it in the first place. The great Hungarian coach Bela Guttmann refused ever to spend longer than three years at a club because he felt that after that he could no longer motivate players. It may be that in the modern world of soccer in which money begets money, success is easier to sustain than previously, at least on a domestic level. On a European scale what that means is a cluster of perhaps eight or so super powers constantly battling for the Champions League, which is surely the main reason no side has successfully defended the title since the AC Milan of Arrigo Sacchi in 1990.
Barcelona's French international defender Eric Abidal is recovering at home after undergoing emergency surgery on a liver tumor, the Spanish champions have confirmed.
Barcelona's French international defender Eric Abidal will undergo emergency surgery Thursday for a liver tumor, the Spanish champions have announced.
The unpleasant memories of France's World Cup fiasco were called to mind in recent weeks when two Ligue 1 players went on strike to force moves from their clubs. The first was Stephane Sessegnon, who had fallen out with Antoine Kombouare, his coach at Paris Saint-Germain, and missed training for three weeks as he agitated for a move to Sunderland. It was only after he returned to the fold that PSG agreed a deal with the Premier League side.

R&M MEA Delivers High Speed Cabling Infrastructure for Rooya Group's 'Telal Al Alamein' Residential Complex
Swiss cabling specialist provides Cat6 cabling for connectivity of over 900 villas
August 5, 2012 3:29 by Colin_Saldanha
DUBAI, United Arab Emirates – 01 August, 2012- Reichle & De-Massari (R&M), the Swiss structured cabling specialist, has successfully completed implementation of a large scale cabling project for the Rooya Group, a prominent real estate development company in Egypt. The cabling for the Rooya Group's 'Telal Al Alamein' project was carried out within a six month time frame and involved the installation of R&M's Cat6 cable infrastructure for the complete connectivity of more than nine hundred villas. The aim of the undertaking was to provide residents with excellent connectivity thereby permitting the availability of highly reliable and secure high-speed internet and HDTV services.
Mr. Mohamed Salah, IT Director of the Rooya Group pointed out that there were two significant factors behind his decision to go with R&M. "The Rooya Group prides itself on building strong trust-based relationships with its property owners. Providing residents with the latest and highest quality facilities plays a large role in building this level of trust."
"R&M is one of the top vendors in the region and thanks to a strong local presence they are capable of timely and skilled support. The other reason we decided to go with R&M is the extremely high quality of their products. They even offer a 25 year systems warranty and this gives us the peace of mind in the long term security of our investment," he said.
For the massive cabling project, R&M's industry leading Cat 6 cabling infrastructure was used for ultra high performance and connectivity. The high-quality twisted pair cables which support Gigabyte Ethernet were suggested by R&M as they met all the present requirement while accommodating for future needs as well. These cables which are suitable for transmission of voice, video and data ensure maximum performance and connectivity throughout the network while enabling faster broadband transmission speeds. In order to meet the aesthetic requirements, R&M provided customized decorative faceplates for the connector boxes as per the architect's specifications.
In addition to providing high-quality easy-to-install cables for the Telal Al Alamein project, R&M also ensured that the engineers of its channel partner for the project received the best possible training through R&M's flagship Qualified Partner Program (QPP). The program involved hands-on sessions to recreate real world scenarios and provided the engineers with all the training necessary to smoothly and efficiently carry out the installation process.
"R&M through its local support always strives to deliver the high quality solutions that our customers have come to expect from us. Right from studying the project during the design phase to selecting the right product and assisting the installation team through the implementation process, customer satisfaction is our prime aim," said Mohamed Allam, Sales Manager, Egypt.
Mr. Mohamed Salah looks forward to a long lasting mutually beneficial relationship with R&M and has already awarded the cabling specialist with the contract for the Rooya Group's next project which is already underway. Mr. Alfred Tharwat, Area Sales Manager for Africa at R&M MEA said, "We are very happy with outcome of the Telal Al Alamein project. This is not just a successful project implementation but the first step in what promises to be a rewarding long-term relationship."

Family and friends of R.J. Statler, the Cartersville man shot and killed Sunday night at Sun Glo Car Wash, are offering a collective $3,000 reward for information leading to the arrest of the person responsible.
Word of the reward, which began at $1,000, came as Statler's family and friends gathered to honor the Canton native and 2002 graduate of nearby Cherokee High School.
Statler's uncle, Rennie Statler, confirmed the reward had grown to $3,000 and said the family is "just devastated" when asked how they're coping with the loss.
"There's no real words to answer that. As we saw on the Patch, the vigil it showed, at least 150 people came out," he said. "This kid was cleaning his car and someone came up behind him and shot him in the back of the head.
"No rhyme or reason why. He didn't hurt anyone. He didn't know how to hurt anyone. He had his life taken away from him and our family is trying to deal with it."
As friends posted around Cartersville flyers announcing the reward, police tonight reached out to the public for help, urging anyone with information on the case to call the department at 770-382-2526.
"All leads are being investigated. Over 30 officers from various agencies have been involved to one extent or another in trying to solve this tragic incident. This is the number one priority right now for the department. The help of the community is greatly appreciated. Our sympathies go out to the victim's family and friends," Cartersville Police Department officials posted on the department's Facebook page.
Police today interviewed a "person of interest," who is not a suspect, Capt. Mark Camp said in an email update. He added that officers are analyzing videos, cell phone records and other evidence.
"[R.J.'s] going to be greatly missed by his father, sister and family," Rennie Statler said. "R.J. was so proud of everything they did and his father is just devastated he's been taken from us, the whole family is."
If you have any information that could help resolve the case, call police at 770-382-2526.

Colts Nation,
I must say that I loved the Colts draft. In recent years, the Tight End position has proven to be a huge difference maker on offense. The Colts do Andrew Luck a favor and snag the 2 best TEs in the draft. This is important because if you watch film of Luck last year he goes to his TEs a lot. I really like the 2 WRs we drafted (Hilton & Brazill) . Hilton reminds me of a poor mans Deshaun Jackson and Brazill looks like a good value pick in round 6 due to potential. Chapman was also a solid pick and should add some meat up front. Great job drafting, however, I have some things I would inquire about....
I was hoping the Colts would go out on a limb and make Vontaze Burfict Mr. Irrelevant. I have a friend who lives in Scottsdale, AZ and I have known about Burfict since he was a freshman. As we all know, Burfict potentially failed a drug test, had bad workouts, and has shown a tendency to lose his cool on the field . His attitude was justifiably questionable, however, if you watch his interviews he doesn't come across as bad as the media would lead you to think. When you listen to him speak, he shows no where near as many "red flags" as when you hear Janoris Jenkins speak and Jenkins sill managed to be drafted in 2nd round.
When one writer called Burfict "un-draftable", Burficit responded humbly by saying he was "hurt" to hear that. To me, this type of response demonstrates that Burfict at least cares. The Bengals signed Burfict from the un-drafted list and will be getting a guy who collected 228 tackles (22.5 for loss), seven sacks and four forced fumbles in only three seasons with the SunDevils. He should be a solid backup to Rey Maualuga.
2 other questions for inquiry...
- 7th round draft pick OT Justin Anderson from Georgia once played on the defensive line at Georgia. Anderson has been known to be athletic and weighs somewhere in the ballpark of 340 lbs. Could Grigson have possibly drafted Anderson as an emergency Nose Tackle if injuries become an issue later in the season?
- Are there any CBs the Colts could target through a trade/ free agency? (Possibly Jenkins from the Cowboys now that they have Claiborne?

A few things bugged me about that episode
I mean… it was so confusing to watch, thinking… why don't you remember this. And why are you making these decisions again… now. Why on earth would the doctor, forgetting and regretting choose to do it again. Also if Hurt was 8/9 or whoever why was he killing everyone, shouldn't that have been the first doctor?? So Gallifrey only died like… when 8 was alive. This makes nooooo sense. Surely there are doctors every where, and it would effect more time than this. I mean it's a giant paradox and the world is constantly changing. Why does he try, when it just is fine anyway. He knows how the world ends, so can't he just leave it and it will just pan out that way anyway. Also why couldn't they have just killed the daleks and saved everyone on Gallifrey. I felt that would have been more epic, probably impossible, but you can write anything into a story. Also.. when was the doctor a child, surely he would have been a child once.
I mean.. it's Doctor who, it doesn't need to make all sense, but it doesn't really make any.

By JENNIFER MEIER
For years, a sleek black soap box derby car has been on display at the Old Bag Factory in Goshen.
There's no placard to tell its story. The name "Greg Koop" written in small script writing on the side of the car only hints at a past filled with fun, trial and error, hard work, challenges, competitions, wins, loses, fame and a movie.
Greg's dad, Vic Koop of Goshen, recently shared that history. The elder Koop grew up in the Niagara Falls area of St. Catharines in Ontario. That's where the derby bug bit.
"That's the one city that had a huge soap box derby," Vic Koop said. "I worked as a stock boy for a company that stored all the cars in their warehouse. I would walk through there and dream and think, 'I could build one of these.' But that never came to fruition."
That would change.
The early years
Fast-forward to the late 1980s, when Vic went with his wife and three children to the Fort Wayne Zoo for a family outing.
"We looked at this track and I asked my middle daughter Lisa if she knew what it was for," Koop said. "After I told her about the derby races, she jumped at the chance to try it."
They went to the soap box derby nationals in Fort Wayne that year to see the racing and look at the cars close up.
"She didn't know how excited I was that I would finally get the chance to build one," Koop said.
Unlike today's kit cars, the derby cars of past decades where made almost entirely by the owners. Only the wheels, axles and braking and steering mechanisms were purchased through the All American Soap Box Derby (AASBD) in Dayton, Ohio.
Of the three classes of derby cars — stock, super stock and masters — Koop chose to build a masters car, by far the fastest and most technically challenging of the cars.
"There were rules upon rules upon rules. You had to have some knowledge of aerodynamics and shifting potential energy to kinetic energy," Koop said. "And I had never done fiberglass before. After going from one company to the next, I heard about one guy whose name has never been mentioned in all this — David Hartzler."
Hartzler owns Crafters Inc, a manufacturing and industrial pattern company in Goshen. Koop went in to buy the chemicals, resins, glass and matting he needed to begin his project.
"He asked me where I was going to do this and I said in my garage," Koop said. "He looked at me and asked me if I wanted to stay married!"
Then he offered Koop a place to work on his car, and let Koop use all of his equipment. Hartzler also offered his expertise.
For that, and for the three years he and his children spent there building five derby cars, Koop is forever grateful.
"Lisa got in that first car," he remembered. "You lay down in the masters cars and you have maybe a 1/16 of an inch to see. And she said, 'No way.' So I opened it up a little and we headed off to the first race. We just did terrible."
To make matters worse, the brakes didn't work.
"They extemporaneously gave her an award at the end of the race for adding to the excitement of the day because the policemen at the finish line would grab bales (of straw) and throw them in front of the car to stop her," Koop said.
Races where held on city streets, and the Koop family would regularly head to Wisconsin, Illinois, Ohio, Michigan and Ontario with the homemade car and trailer.
"The early years were hilarious because we were learning, always learning," Koop said. "But the challenges made me want to do it more."
Getting more serious about the project, Koop contacted an aeronautical engineer in California who worked with Koop and would send him plans to exactly fit Lisa or her younger brother, Greg, who soon began racing in derbies.
"At that point our success rate took off, but now we were racing with the big boys," Koop said.
Unfortunately, Koop and his family learned the derby business often had the same terrible underbelly that all sports have when parents get too involved. Parents who had invested so much time and money into the cars, Koop said, would scream at their children when they lost races. And the national news carried the story of one family that illegally used electromagnets to win two consecutive All-American derbies.
For Koop, though, far outweighing the darker aspects of derby racing are the family memories of laughter and fun. Two incidents stand out for him.
Favorite memories
"The nicest moment was when our oldest daughter Jennifer was setting up Lisa's car on the ramp," Koop said. "It's really critical how you set the car. Here are these fathers helping their kids and then there was Jennifer. I got all misty-eyed sitting off in a lawn chair watching my two little daughters figuring out the perfect position for the car."
Koop's favorite race took place in Michigan, where Greg was driving the fastest car Koop had ever built.
"At that point, I had it all figured out," Koop said. "We got to this race and here's this nationally ranked Vlasic Pickle sponsored car. We won the first phase and they won the second. With the time differential, they won and we were put in the losers' bracket."
Koop consoled Greg, telling him he did a great job against a nationally ranked car. But Koop couldn't stop thinking about what he could do to improve the car's performance.
"I looked over and saw that they were weighing the cars and they were doing gross weight only," Koop said. "I walked to the director and said, 'Are you telling me that we can have a weight differential from front to back axle?' He said 'Yes.'"
What that meant was that Koop could put the car's weights anywhere in the car he wanted. He moved them all to the back.
"We just started cleaning up — winning all the races," Koop said.
At the end of the day the Koops raced their way out of the loser's bracket and faced the Vlasic car again. Greg's car won. The Vlasic team accused them of adding weight and the car was brought to the scales.
"I was pretty nervous, but we were dead on with the weight," Koop said. "We won and have the trophy to show for it. It gives me great joy to chomp on a Vlasic pickle today."
The movie
Years later, Koop became heavily involved in the Elkhart County Soap Box Derby. During that time he heard a Middlebury couple, Sheila and Myron Yoder, give a talk about what to do to keep children involved in mainstream activities.
The Yoders' oldest boy Seth was heavily into athletics and their younger son Justin played T-Ball. However, Justin had spina bifida and found he couldn't continue with that activity.
"I remember they were teary-eyed at the end and wanted to know if anyone had ideas how to keep Justin active," Koop said. "I happened to cross paths with them in the parking lot afterwards and told them I thought I had something in my garage for Justin."
The Yoders brought Justin to Koop's house one afternoon not long after the invitation was extended.
"Justin was a bit of a ham and his parents were just perfect. Everything just came together," Koop said. "I remember we just plopped him in the car and it just took off from there."
The only snag in the plan was that Justin wasn't able to use the foot brake.
"I contacted AASBD and asked if there was a possibility of altering the rules from a foot brake to a hand brake," Koop said. "They flatly turned me down."
But Koop was persistent and exasperated.
"Finally I just asked them if they had ever heard of the Americans With Disabilities Act," Koop said. "It wasn't long after that one of the board members called me and essentially said he could make it happen and that it was a great idea."
The most satisfying part for Koop was getting all the emails and letters asking him to explain the "Justin Brake."
As it turned out, Justin's involvement and success in the derby would elevate him to celebrity status.
Joel Kauffmann and Don Yost wrote his story, and in 2000 it was made into the Disney movie "Miracle in Lane 2" starring Ricky Muniz.
"They flew us all out to Hollywood for the premiere showing," Koop said. "Incidentally, Disney asked that the part about me be rewritten. They needed a villain. So I was made into a villain. They paid me $15 to use my name."
In Koop's view, the movie didn't capture a lot of things about the actual experience. "In some ways the real story was almost more dramatic," he said.
However, the movie is just one small part of Koop's story. And so is the sleek black derby car that still hangs from the rafters in the Old Bag Factory.
"The real story is that my wife Irene and I have three wonderful kids with whom we had lots of fun," he said.

"The Angels had a better record than us and the Blue Jays, and the Brewers and the Blue Jays got shoved down the food chain. The Elias rankings have never been changed, and there are so many smart statistical gurus -- Bill James, etc. -- that could create a fair model for both players and teams, who should be compensated fairly according to the value of each player to that team. Last year, Geoff Jenkins, who had a nice career with us and was arguably one of our better players, was not even ranked last year, and Tony Graffanino, a part-time player, was ranked. We have dropped 46 slots in the 2009 draft, and we will be dropping even more because there are so many compensation picks. The second round will be almost the third round, in the way that it will develop." "The Yankees will lose some draft picks, but they can draft unsignable players in fourth and fifth rounds, and pay over-slot, as they did with Andrew Brackman (the Yankees' No. 1 pick in 2007). "The Draft Elias rankings and compensation needs to be changed. I do not want to sound like I'm whining, but teams who have to build with draft picks get frustrated. I had interest in Juan Cruz, and because I thought we had extra first-round picks for CC and for Ben Sheets, I had considered a Type A signing. Now I have to reconsider." "We will keep having fun with scouting and player development, and finding our role players. Brian [Cashman] has to do what his owners and market asks him to do."Doug Melvin e-mail to Buster Olney

The New York Knicks were eight minutes away from a galvanizing upset over the Boston Celtics, a win that in the immediate could have squelched concerns about the heart of a team led by Amar'e Stoudemire and Carmelo Anthony, and in the long run struck fear into the hearts of a potential playoff foe. Alas, it was not meant to be, as the Celtics stormed back in the fourth quarter to blast the Knicks 96-86, preserving fears that the Knicks are, as a crowd of skeptical fans might say, "ov-er-ra-ted" and that there's little hope they'll be able to challenge one of the East's elite in the playoffs.
The Knicks were in a good position in the fourth. 'Melo had scored 17 points through three quarters, and Stoudemire had offered 16. Boston hadn't scored a three-pointer, and despite New York's poor defense, only Kevin Garnett had really blown up (with 18 points through three). With 7-1/2 minutes left, the Knicks led by nine at 82-73. Then it all came crashing down. 'Melo picked up his fifth foul, and Paul Pierce took advantage, scoring seven unanswered. Rajon Rondo lobbed an alley-oop to Garnett. Ray Allen put in a streaking lay-up. Garnett pushed his total to 24. And fin. The damage was done, as the Celtics led by four, and the Knicks managed just four more points the rest of the game.
There's a second side to that fatal 13-0 run, and it's full of bricked jumpers. During the run, the Knicks took and missed five shots. Four of them were jumpers. In the quarter New York shot just 4-16, and by my count 14 of the shots were jumpers. No team can survive taking Js all day against the Celtics, because they will contest and you will miss. Ask the Lakers in the 2008 NBA Finals. Ask the Cavs in last year's Eastern Conference semifinals. You can't settle for a jumper every time down the court against Boston and expect to survive.

The Right Diagnosis
A man tells his doctor that he's incapable of doing all the things around the house that he used to do. When the examination is over, he says, "Okay, Doctor. In plain English—what's wrong with me?"
"Well, in plain English," says the doctor, "you're just lazy."
The man nods. "Now give me the medical term so I can tell my wife."

About NATCON 2013
The National Convention is an annual congregation of Architects organised by The Indian Institute of Architects. IIA NATCON 2013 is being hosted by IIA TN CHAPTER on behalf of the National body to bring together the professionals to discuss and deliberate the various facets of Architectural development, practice and education and the future vision.
The Convention is being organized at the Chennai Trade Centre, Nandambakkam, Chennai, Tamil Nadu on the 27th, 28th & 29th of December 2013 with a participation of about 1000 to 1500 Architects from all over the country, including members, new members & soon to be members of IIA.
Host City: Chennai
The coastal City of Chennai has been known for its hospitality and warmth. Chennai is acknowledged as the cultural capital, with an enriched ancient tradition of music, literature, classical and folk dance and the arts.
Heritage sites at Mahabalipuram and Kancheepuram are a rare testimony of its radical experimentation in rock architecture and a new synthesis of form. Its proximity to thriving centers of learning and arts like Pondicherry, Auroville, Bengaluru, Kanyakumari, Chetinad, Madurai, Srirangam, and Tanjore has reinforced its geographical significance.
The City today reflects a "work in progress" with large infrastructure projects being implemented, like in most other Indian Cities. Over the next few decades, the city of Chennai hopes to transform, inspired by its ancient arts as well as futuristic and sustainable innovations.
As part of the Convention, a seamless Mega exhibition with an area of 4400sqm. of Architectural and Building products from manufacturers and dealers throughout India, is being organized at the same venue which has excellent infrastructure and facilities.
Emphasis and encouragement shall be bestowed on sustainable, energy-efficient & innovative products.

Then there's: "All deaf persons must be informed of the law enforcement agency's obligation to have a free, qualified interpreter present during all communications." No one even bothered to tell me about this. Not even the officer who came to the house, neither the detectives, neither the officers who do the booking procedures, as well as anyone else out in that area of the holding area. There was not even a mention of an interpreter there at all, no matter where I was.
Next page at the bottom has: "Under the ADA and its regulation, it is clear that local and state law enforcement agencies are required to provide qualified sign language interpreters, and other auxiliary aids to ensure effective communication with the deaf and hard of hearing individuals." What interpreters? There were NONE AT ALL! Auxiliary aids? Yes, there was a TTY in the booking area, as well as one that Det. G. used. That's it! Nothing else. Effective communications? Not. Two pages later: "During every stage of the proceedings against a criminal defendant, a qualified interpreter must be present." WHERE WAS THIS INTERPRETER???
Middle paragraph on the next page: "Failure to provide a deaf person with an interpreter prior to trial severely curtails any possibility of free communication between the attorney and the accused during the pre-trial stage." I have no problem with no interpreter with my attorney, but I do have a HUGE ONE with none with questioning with the two officers! Where was this free communication between me and the officer? WHERE??? There was absolutely no communications, and heavy politics used here! Even the judge knew of my hearing problem, when I talked of an interpreter the first time I showed up in court.
Finally, on the next page: "Under the ADA and its regulation, it is clear that local and state courts are required to provide qualified sign language interpreters and other auxiliary aids, to ensure effective communication with deaf and hard of hearing individuals." The courts and the officers have failed miserably here. So miserably, that this is a very clear violation of my own civil rights as a deaf individual, what with all the deficiencies. This case should not have continued on!
I'm unable to go to my court date of January 19th, due to a heavy 16 inch snowfall, keeping people from doing what needs to be done. I get a call from JB, saying that the court date will be postponed to another time. I later receive a notice saying that my next court date would be on January 31. That day, there's a continuation filed for March 30, to which I will decide either to go through diversion or the 3rd floor Felony Court. Going through the Felony Court would cost me $3,500-5,000 which I did not have.
A week before I go to the next court date, I make a request to the Court Administrator for an interpreter. A few days later, I get a call saying that my court date has been moved. At this court date, [where an interpreter was FINALLY provided] the detective, my lawyer, and I agree on going through diversion. We then sign papers concerning the diversion that I will be going through and discuss what I will be doing and so on. The next court date officially places me in the diversion program. For the next year, til May 10, 1995, I'm in diversion, and have twice-monthly meetings with the caseworker for 3 months, then after that, once a month, either a visit or a phone call. I also have to work 160 hours, and pay a $160 fee.

Twitter: Reaction to Minnesota hiring Pitino
Minnesota hired Florida International coach Richard Pitino as its new men's basketball coach Wednesday. Pitino, 30, is the son of legendary coach Rick Pitino, who guided Louisville to this year's Final Four, his seventh career such trip. See the Twitter reaction to the hiring of the younger Pitino in this post.

found a new home!
Plenty of my friends are looking
for one too. Find a pet to adopt.
Find a pet to adopt
My name is Oreo II!
Facts about Oreo II
- Breed: Domestic Shorthair
- Color: White (Mostly)
- Age: Adult
- Sex: Male
- Hair: Short
Oreo II's Info...
I am already neutered, up to date with shots, and not good with cats.
Oreo II came to CARE from an only cat household, so he's a bit overwhelmed at the shelter. He'd love to find a quiet home where he is the only cat, so he can relax and enjoy his human's company. If you'd like more information on Oreo II, please call 508-994-0220.
Other Pets at C.A.R.E. Southcoast
Why Adoption is a Great Option
Oreo II, a New Bedford Domestic Shorthair cat was adopted! Here's how you can benefit by looking at adoption as an option to buying a Domestic Shorthair for sale in New Bedford, or seeking a Domestic Shorthair cat from a breeder in New Bedford.
- Rescues and shelter volunteers in New Bedford already know the personality and tendencies of their pets. This means they can match you with the right pet. That will makes it much easier transition to owning a pet for yourself and your new pet.
- On average adoption fees are much less than you'd pay a New Bedford breeder, or pet store. Plus most often rescue pets have already been to the veterinarian for a check-up, had a round of vaccinations, and are spayed or neutered. That is a lot of savings!
- You will become a hero, and give a needy dog or cat a loving home. In fact, there are even Domestic Shorthair breeders who help with Domestic Shorthair rescue. One puppy or kitten adopted in New Bedford paves the way for another one to be saved.
