BURLINGTON, Vt. (AP) - A Vermont man who pleaded not guilty to charges of stealing an historical document from the Fletcher Free Library in Burlington and trying to sell it has failed to appear in court on new charges.
The Burlington Free Press reports an arrest warrant was issued Tuesday for 55-year-old Patrick Rooney of Colchester after he failed to appear for an arraignment on charges including possession and selling of stolen property, namely the "Chittenden County Road Commissioners 1828-1831" manuscript. It was sold for $625 to the University of Vermont's Bailey/Howe Library.
Last month, Rooney pleaded not guilty to petty larceny for taking a page from "The Proprietors Volume" from Burlington's Fletcher Free Library and attempting to sell it to the Bailey/Howe Library. The document was written in 1791.

Wilfredo Vazquez Jr-Ivan Hernandez in Play For Oct. 16 (BoxingScene.com)
Wilfredo Vazquez Jr. (19-0-1, 16 KO) will return to the ring on October 16 in Florida, and it looks like his opponent will be veteran Ivan Hernandez (27-4-1, 17 KO). Hernandez is mostly a stepping stone-type, realistically. He was retired in three by Toshiaki Nishioka last October, and was retired in four by Israel Vazquez in 2006. He also has a KO-7 loss to Fernando Montiel (2005) and a UD-10 loss to Jose Angel Beranza (2006). He really hasn't beaten anyone of note in years, and his best win ever might be over Mark "Too Sharp" Johnson back in 2004, which effectively retired Johnson. It's really not much of a fight, but it's good to see Vazquez getting back in the ring. Hopefully next year he can test his mettle against some of the division's best. But I do get the feeling that Vazquez might be protected as a Coming Star of Puerto Rico for a little while.

Meet Genevieve Colangelo: Performer and artist
By Felicia Ervin
Genevieve Colangelo
Photo by Kimberly New
Genevieve Colangelo has been on a steady path to a career in dance. At age seven, she was cast as a polichinelle in a production of "The Nutcracker" and in high school she received the Kennesaw State Univeristy Dance Clinic Scholarship. Now a freshman at KSU, she is still pursuing her dream of being the best dancer that she can be.
According to Genevieve, what really impresses her about the dance program at KSU is its versatility and rapid growth. She credits Ivan Pulinkala, director of the Dance Program, and Lauri Stallings, instructor of dance, with helping her grow as a dancer. She explains, "They have two different dance styles and both have opened my eyes so much to other ways of moving and being a dancer."
The recent inductee into the dance honor society Nu Delta Alpha sees her fellow dance students as not only peers but teachers as well. As a member of the KSU Dance Company, Genevieve performed in the company's production of "D-Man in the Waters" and was a cast member of "Cocoon," which was produced by Pulinkala.
According to Pulinkala, "Genevieve is a talented dancer who excels as a performer and artist. It was a pleasure working with her in the KSU Dance Company last fall. Genevieve brings a level of maturity and sincerity to the creative process that sets her apart from her peers."
Many dancers dream of moving to New York to pursue their passion, but Genevieve says that being a dance student at KSU has made her aware of the possibilities in Atlanta. "I've always wanted to go to other places because I grew up in Atlanta, but after being at KSU and seeing what's offered, I will be alright with staying in Atlanta."
As for her future goals, Genevieve admits that it changes from time to time. She has considered dancing for a major company or possibly a teaching position. However, there is one goal that Genevieve is sure of: "I want to be the best dancer I can possibly be."

Customer Testimonial
The installation went fine as a DIY project, considering the very large area. The installation of the grid system was the biggest challenge and could not have been done without a laser level device. We are well pleased with the ceiling as it looks very rich and different from the typical spongy look of traditional ceiling tile. Thanks for a good product. Attached are pictures of the finished ceiling.

Sorry it has taken me so long to write back, but it has taken us longer than expected to upgrade out basement. I am forwarding you four pictures that I took this morning of the section of the basement where we needed the tiled ceiling. First, the Ceilume tile has COMPLETELY transformed the look of the basement. Everyone compliments the ceiling and when they touch it, they can't believe it's not wood! Half of our basement has low duct work where we do not have an option other than a drop ceiling. We LOVE the tiles and they were so super easy to install!

It is great hearing from you and the Ceilume team. In relation to the installation of our Ceilume tiles...where do I begin. Your service since the moment we came across your company has been tremendous. We started this process with samples being mailed out to our home. After getting over the initial reaction of how light, simple and easy this product was we were convinced that the price was right to move forward. Within about 10 days our entire shipment arrived. I was able to enjoy time with my 5 young boys ( all under 12) installing the tiles in the grid as well as cutting out the can light holes. This may have been one of the quickest, cleanest and easiest do-it-yourself jobs I have ever completed. We were even able to frame in our retracting projector screen and projector for the home theatre.

The Week 15 Curse
November 8, 2012 Leave a comment
The Atlanta Falcons are currently sitting 8-0 heading into their game with the New Orleans Saints this Sunday, which will put them past the halfway point and firmly on the road to the infamous 16-0. Only two teams have ever done this. Well that's not strictly true. The Miami Dolphins were undefeated in 1972 when the league only played 14 games, I still think this counts. But The New England Patriots in 2007 was the last/only time a team has gone 16-0.
Now I'm not sure if it's too early for the whole "they are going to go 16-0" chat, but did the curse of that let The Green Bay Packers down last year? Well, that depends what you think could knock off course a strong team who were coming from a Super Bowl winning season, the curse of the hype, or the Kansas City Chiefs (who finished rock bottom in the league at 7-9) or both. You decide. But either way only their 5 point loss in week 15 resulted in their 15-1 finish.
So, for the second year in a row are we looking at a contender in the Atlanta Falcons? Roddy White certainly seems to think so, "I think we got the pedigree to do it," White told The Atlanta Journal-Constitution. "You know how we are on offense and defense and how we are as a team. This locker room's very, very united right now. Every week we expect to win. There's not a time that I felt like we went into a ballgame so far this year that I felt like we weren't going to win."
The performances from Falcons quarterback Matt Ryan and his 8th ranked offence has resulted in 27.5 points per game, impressive to say the least. It can therefore be argued that Ryan is half way to taking the MVP slot this year. Extra pressure? I think not. No reason to say that pressure is anything other than the increasingly aptly named Matty Ice's friend.
Despite some strong wins and some tight wins the Falcons are yet to face a real test. I guess this will be the difference. Or will we see another 15-1 with a week 15 curse when they face off against the New York Giants? Anything is possible.

New boy Mapou Yanga-Mbiwa is on the bench and of course Mathieu Debuchy also starts for Newcastle in this crucial relegation 6 pointer.
As expected, Steven Taylor joins Coloccini in central defense for the Magpies and Mike Williamson is on the bench.
Aldo on the bench are the Ameobi brothers, Steve Harper, Vurnon Anita and promising teenager Gael Bigirimana.
Missing from the squad are Sylvain Marveaux and Gabby Obertan – and apparently Sylvain is carrying a slight knock – but should be fit for Chelsea on Saturday.
We need a win tonight.

Posts tagged with 'twitter'
First sighting of a buy now button on Twitter.
Twitter and the Oxford English Dictionary | OxfordWords blog →
Richard Holden of the OED (@rchrd_h) credits me as the first twittered use of 'hash tag' and #hashtag, but I've been left out of the OED citation itself. Odd, especially since Ben Zimmer came to the same result a few years ago).
COO Rwoghani out at Twitter, but that's just a symptom of greater ills
Twitter CEO Dick Costolo apparently decided that the tug-of-war that had been apparently going on between him and COO Ali Rwoghani was a waste of energy. Rowghani is out, and Jay Yarow has the deets:
Jay Yarow, Why Twitter's COO Is Out - Business Insider
According to a person familiar with the situation, Rowghani leaving the company is "really about product, and the speed of the product."
All product decisions had been flowing into Rowghani. CEO Dick Costolo wanted those decisions to come to him directly. Cutting a management layer between the product leader and the CEO will help Twitter make faster, more efficient changes to its products.
This description — if accurate — reflects a serious cultural problem at Twitter. Should the CEO — or the COO — be making product decisions? Yes, Costolo recently hired Daniel Graf from Google — only the most recent product guy to be tapped to goose the sluggish development culture there — but the legacy of past product regimes led by Ev Williams, Jack Dorsey, and Mike Sippey seem to hang around, and no one person may be able to fix that.
In a healthy company of Twitter's size, people much closer to the platform are experimenting with product features and capabilities.
For example, shouldn't some product manager — someone working with a small team of developers — build a version of the curated topics that Tumblr has? Why would that have to be decided by a C-level executive? Do the experiment, look at the results — what works or doesn't — rinse and repeat, right?
Twitter feels like a company that has become lumbering, slow, and timid, where bias toward action has been suffocated, innovation prohibited, and the product is the sad result of design-by-committee.
They have been fumbling the future, and if it keeps on, it might be Costolo that will be leaving next.
Twitter Muting
Twitter is adding a much-needed feature: muting. This will allow me — when I eventually get access to the slow-to-roll-out feature — to mute people when they are at a conference and I can't take it any more.
The best use case is when someone I do want to listen to retweets someone I don't want to hear from. Apparently, if I mute the loudmouth, those retweets won't reach me. But I guess I will have to first follow the people I am trying to avoid to avoid them by muting?
App.net is now a Zombie Company
As I predicted (see Announcing an audacious proposal by Dalton Caldwell), there really isn't enough interest in App.net as an alternative to Twitter. The company have announced that there is enough money in renewals to keep the lights on but no one will be home.
The company has announced that there will no longer be any full-time employees, including the founders Dalton Caldwell and Bryan Berg, but those two will continue to be responsible for the service, which is still online and available.
An interesting side effect of Twitter's inability to articulate their core value prop is that anyone and everyone has advice for how they might improve (including me!). Combine that with the fact that Twitter serves so many different use cases – real-time news, de facto RSS reader, public chat, just to name a few – and you have a paralysis of choice not only for new users but also for Twitter's marketing and onboarding teams.
So why not embrace the complexity? Instead of trying to teach new users how to built a curated follower list, build the lists for them. Don't call them lists, though; embrace Twitter's TV connection and make them "channels." Big basketball game? Go to the basketball channel, populated not with the biggest celebrities but with the best and most entertaining tweeters. Build similar channels for specific teams in all sports. Do the same for Apple, Google, and technology; liberals, conservatives, and politics in general; have channels for the Oscars, the Olympics and so on and so forth. And make them good, devoid of the crap that pollutes most hashtags and search results. If the ideal Twitter experience is achieved with a curated list, then provide curated lists and an easy way to switch among them.
Now you have a value prop: easily join the conversation about what is happening in the areas you care about, without the months-long process of building a perfectly customized Twitter feed. Oh, and by the way Ad Person, here is a very easy-to-understand ad unit built around a specific topic filled with self-selected followers.

Twitter Hints That At-Replies And Hashtags Are About To Be Streamlined →
Charlie Warzel reports on hints and statements of intent at Twitter about moving the 'arcane' language of microsyntax (@, #, in particular) down into the infrastructure. He mentions a recent talk by Vivian Schiller:
What will Twitter look like in a year? Two years? A lot less like itself.
At least that's the impression Vivian Schiller, head of news at Twitter, gave addressing the crowd two days ago at the Newspaper Association of America's mediaXchange conference in Denver. During her talk, Schiller called at-replies and hashtags "arcane" and hinted that Twitter might soon move them into the background of the service.
When asked about the comments, Twitter replied that Schiller was echoing a similar sentiment that the company's CEO, Dick Costolo, addressed in a recent earnings call:
By bringing the content of Twitter forward and pushing the scaffolding of the language of Twitter to the background, we can increase high-quality interactions and make it more likely that new or casual users will find this service as indispensable as our existing core users do. And we took initial steps in that direction with the introduction of media forward timelines and in-line social actions in October, and we're already starting to see early signs that those initiatives are working well.
Unlike Schiller's, Costolo's statement makes no specific mention of hashtags and at-replies, suggesting that Schiller may have accidentally hinted at specific targets for upgrade. While it's not immediately clear how this disappearance would work, it's possible that at-replies will be auto-replaced by formal Twitter names, like they are on Facebook.
Hiding the # and @ characters would be like a city burying all the electric wires and TV cables so that people can see things better.
Twitter has already done away with explicit retweets (the old RT), and streamlined the way that URLs are handled, so why wouldn't they want to clear out the unintuitive #hashtags and @mentions?
Hiding the # and @ characters would be like a city burying all the electric wires and TV cables so that people can see things better.
And this is coming from the guy that coined the term hashtag. I would be happy to drop the hash and just have real tags. But we still need to be able to tag tweets, even if we won't be wasting characters with them. And by making tags real metadata, Twitter may finally get around to treating them as something more than just a # and a string of characters.
Here's a picture of the explicit @mention being suppressed in an Android experimental app:
I Think Twitter Should Buy Nuzzel Immediately, Before Yahoo or Flipboard Does
I got access to Nuzzel today, and it is going to immediately join Flipboard as one of the few apps I religiously use everyday to make sense of my Twitter flow. Nuzzel cross-tabulates my incoming stream of tweets, and yields the stories that a whole bunch of my scene are talking about in Twitter. Nuzzel is the best social news feed I've seen, to date.
This is a much better realization of what I have been using Flipboard to do for me with my Twitter feed there. This aggregates dozens of tweets about a hot story — like Jennifer Bell's Journalism startups aren't a revolution if they're filled with all these white men — and allows me to wander through aggregation from my friends — those who I follow directly — and from my friends of friends — which truly is my social scene. (I'm betting that swarm is something like a few hundred thousand to a million people, based on each of the 1500 folks I follow following a few hundred people each.)
Nuzzel also suggests stories I might have missed, and keeps track of what i have read — just that last feature along is a product I need regularly.
Check out my public Nuzzel feed at nuzzel.com/stoweboyd.

LITTLE ROCK, AR - FDA has issued a recall for bottled water in Arkansas that has a nationwide distribution as Mountain Pure Water.
The company announced a voluntary recall of lots marked with a four-digit code. The time code is written in military time, and the affected time period is from 2200 through 0400.
The code is etched into the plastic bottles of water. The affected product also includes an expiration date code that says Best By 2-27-2013 MPWA or Best By 2-28-2013 MPWA.
These are bottles of purified drinking water in the 16.9 fl. oz. (506ml.) size. Alabama Department of Health is recommending that anyone who might have purchased or received any of this bottled water dispose of it or return it to the point of purchase or distribution.
The recall was issued after mold was found in samples of the water.
The tainted Mountain Pure water was found in a shipment of bottled water ordered by the city of Clinton for use during disaster relief efforts. Residents of flood-affected communities should boil water for one minute before drinking, or drink other types of purified bottled water.

By now, most people know where they stand with The Acacia Strain: You either love the fun of a relatively simple and groovy downtuned assault, or you hate it. Aside from focusing the album around a central theme and some songs featuring slightly more progressive elements, "Continent" is pretty much what you should expect from the band.
The first song, "Skynet," is a more experimental song for TAS; after a thick introduction riff that gets slower and slower, the song breaks into a more up tempo number with a fairly melodic chorus which closes with a typical TAS breakdown.
The second track, "The Seaward," is perhaps the strongest song on the album, including mid tempo groovy riffing seen on earlier tracks like "Burnface" and "The Dead Walk," a catchy two step section with the signature harmonics, and two crushing breakdowns. This track even features a riff that wouldn't be out of place on a Meshuggah album (flashes TAS have shown occasionally in the past). "Dr. Doom" is another strong track that efficiently balances fast riffing, more breakdowns, and even a short solo.
After the three opening tracks, the album falls into a nice pace with a number of slow to mid tempo heavy tracks with no shortage of bass drops, tritones, breakdowns, and pinched harmonics. "Continent" is at its best when it centers these elements around groove and rhythm to create a song which is not just brutal, but also catchy. They have been doing this well since 3750, however now the band only has one guitarist (D.L.) with the departure of Daniel Daponde. Despite D.L. presumingly having to writing most of the music, there is still a good bit of variety on "Continent."
The only point where the album starts to drag are with "JFC" and "Kraken," songs that focus more on just chugging and being as heavy as possible, but lose sight of those elements of catchiness. The songs are not throwaways, but they do lack some of the energy of the songs preceding them. The album closes strong with the short but pounding "The Combine," and the very interesting "The Behemoth," which is very similar to "Halcyon" off of "3750″…a melodic instrumental that forces a 180 degree turn of mood and emotion onto the listener.
Vincent Bennett is in his prime on this album. He has all but ditched any high pitched screaming and raspiness and has switched to a very deep vocal delivery for the entirety of the disc. His lyrics are similar to those of "The Dead Walk," mixing disdain for the human race with very black humor. "Continent" is a bit of a concept album, as now he has coupled his hatred for rampant promiscuity with the theme of destroying the world. There are plenty of great lines for the kids to shout at the shows about ending the world, killing everyone, etc. Jack Strong augments the low end well, and Kevin Boutot does a fine job behind the kit, putting in nice fills here and there.
Overall, "Continent" is exactly what you would expect/hope it to be. If you loved "The Dead Walk," you will certainly love this. The Acacia Strain is the best band doing what they do, and they have turned out a number of very memorable songs. The album loses a little steam near the end, but overall is very well done.

However, after the Nuggets lost to the Clippers (Curse you Melo j/k j/k cheap shot at Gasus) i want to make sure that I state that the Nuggets better not lose to the Nets tonight or the LWolves on Wednesday or I'll be pissed 'n' shat. After my precious Bengals lost to the Raiders yesterday, I'm concerned for my snug nugnugz. they better take care of business.

Shoppers are buying groceries in Johnson, an everyday chore that hasn't been possible in the town for more than two years.
"It's huge for a community like Johnson. The grocery store was really our anchor business," said Duncan Hastings, the municipal manager in Johnson.
Flooding back in April 2011 submerged the old Grand Union in water, taking out the town's only grocery store. Until Tuesday, residents had to drive miles to Morrisville just to get food.
The property is owned by the Pomerleaus, who invested to bring a grocery store back to town with improvements to help prevent some future flooding. They got help from grants and loans. Though mum on the total cost, they said the town needed that central point again.
"People can shop where they should-- in the downtown. And for a lot of them, they don't have a car, five miles is a long ways away," developer Tony Pomerleau said.
Inside the Sterling Market, owner Mike Comeau says he tried to cater to the diversity of desires and price points in the community when stocking the shelves.
"I could put a store anywhere, but I really look for the community stores. I'm not interested in owning a store on a major highway where you don't see the same customer twice. It's more about coming and being part of a local community and bonding with everybody here," Comeau said.
The grocery store isn't the only thing new in town, though. Efforts were well underway before the flooding to revitalize Main Street. And after more than a decade of planning, securing funding and construction, town officials say this street is more vibrant than before.
"I think we've heard from businesses that business is picking up. It was a real tough two years when we had the construction project," Hastings said.
Now that it's behind them, with spruced-up streetlights, sidewalks and infrastructure, the town is hoping for growth.
"Johnson is open for business. We're looking for anyone who's interested in coming here. We think it's a beautiful, vibrant community that has a lot to offer," Hastings said.
A downtown Renaissance where a new store is just the latest step.

Long-term cancer survivor celebrates remission after seven recurrences
GILBERT, Ariz. (June 18, 2014) – Carolene Davis, 52, has been forced to stay on her toes when it came to her health. Not once or twice, but seven times she had to face the words: You have cancer.
After 16 years of struggle, Davis' cancer is going into remission. Talk about a reason to celebrate: Doctors say she had a 1 percent chance of surviving for this long based on her cancer type.
"I'm a lot happier – theres no more stress," said Davis regarding how different remission feels this time around.
Dr. Diljeet Singh, MD, of Banner MD Anderson Cancer Center in Gilbert played a major role in treating Davis. Singh, who is director of the gynecologic oncology program, put Davis on a very strong chemotherapy regimen that required three drugs to fight Davis' aggressive cancer.
She recommended herbs and supplements, and helped Davis adjust her eating and exercise habits. They worked together to come up with ways of using integrative medicine to lessen Davis' side effects of chemotherapy.
"Once I started eating organic foods and a lot more veggies, I felt so much better," said Davis. "I did everything right this time."
Davis believes the changes in her diet played an important part in battling her disease, but she also had a secret weapon: the gift of positivity. Davis said even when she first started battling cancer, she never let it get the best of her. Sure, she was worried, but she was able to focus on what to do to cure the disease instead of dwelling on the fact that she had it.
Not even the loss of all her hair could change her positive, bubbly additude.
"I have Trixie, Lola and Warrior Princess," Davis said, listing just a few of her wigs that she named.
It started when Davis was getting her annual pap smear. Up until this point, nothing out of the ordinary had appeared in her results. But this time, at 36 years old, she learned she had cervical cancer and was immediately scheduled for a radical hysterectomy.
Doctors chose not to remove her ovaries, which were not visibly involved by cancer and are not typically a part of how cervical cancer spreads. But two years later, they found tumors in her left and right ovaries which led her to need a second surgery. In another two years, the cancer returned more aggressively. It had spread to her lymph nodes and pelvic area and was moving into her lungs. Doctors started to prepare Davis for the worst. They said she probably wouldn't survive.
"If somebody gives up, they are not going to make it," said Davis. "I enjoy life. There is so much to do in life, don't give up."
Davis realized she had to start setting goals. First she wanted to watch her only son graduate from high school. She later went on to see her son, who was only eight years old when she was first diagnosed, graduate from the Golf Academy of America in Temecula, Calif. She made the goal to make it to the age of 50 – a birthday she celebrated with family and friends two years ago. Now she hopes to see her son start a family.
Davis has remained positive as she battled the cancer that returned to her right lung and later appeared in her stomach and neck.
Chemotherapy and radiation were required to treat the cancer that was spreading into her lungs. This helped, but two years later it came back again in her right lung.
With the disease now in remission, Davis recently underwent her final chemotherapy treatment at Banner MD Anderson. Her treatment plan has involved integrative oncology, an approach that brings together the best of complementary therapies with the latest treatment for cancer.
"The diagnosis of cancer often leaves people feeling helpless. The integrative approach empowers patients by directing their energies towards healthy lifestyle strategies, improving the tolerance and success of treatment, and reducing the risk of recurrence," said Santosh Rao, MD, medical oncologist at Banner MD Anderson.
Banner MD Anderson, located on the Banner Gateway campus, delivers cancer care to patients in Arizona through the collaboration of Banner Health and The University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center. Banner MD Anderson offers focused disease-specific expertise in the medical, radiation and surgical management of the cancer patient; an evidence-based, multidisciplinary approach to patient care; access to clinical trials and new investigative therapies; state-of-the-art technology for the diagnosis, staging and treatment of all types of cancer; oncology expertise in supportive care services.

The Monroe Central Seminoles' boys basketball team opened up a new year with a new coach with a stellar victory over the PVC foe Caldwell Redskins at their new home gym in Woodsfield on Nov. 30. The team was able to give head coach Lou Tolzda his first win as a Seminole with a 64-59 victory.
The game was close throughout with Monroe Central leading by only one at the end of the first quarter and three at half-time. In the end, the Seminoles were too much for the Redskins. Leading the balanced effort by the Noles were Korey Lafferre (16 points), Bryan Duffy (14 points), Cameron Jorris (seven points), Levi Brown (seven points) and Kordell Antill (six points). The Seminoles will next face River at home on Dec. 7.

Preston's matchups: Ravens at Patriots (AFC championship)
Columnist Mike Preston breaks down the matchups he feels will decide Sunday's AFC championship between the Ravens and Patriots at Gillette Stadium.
Image 1 of 4
Patriots TE Rob Gronkowski vs Ravens safeties Ed Reed and Bernard Pollard
Gronkowski is a monster, and few have figured out how to stop him. He is truly a freak of nature and hard to bring down. He has stellar skills as a receiver, the ability to block like a true offensive lineman and can dominate a game. The Ravens will try to cover him in a number of ways, but Reed and Pollard will be involved most of the time. Pollard has more size than Reed, but Reed has outstanding coverage skills. If Pollard and Gronkowski collide, it might be an earth-shattering event. Edge: Patriots

Dallas Cowboys WR Dez Bryant is struggling with a finger injury in Week 15, but he's making the most of it so far. Against the Pittsburgh Steelers, Bryant has three catches for 46 yards and a touchdown at press time. It was feared that Bryant would miss the rest of the season with surgery, but he decided to play through the pain.
The Cowboys lead the Steelers 17-10 at the time of this writing.
Fantasy Impact: Bryant was understandably a huge concern in fantasy circles this week, and with just four targets he's been mostly a decoy.
Still, he got the late touchdown catch and rewarded fantasy owners who stuck with him this week. Bryant still has time to make some noise.

News: Coolio Confirms Replacing DMX For MMA Fight, "I Don't Plan On Losing"
Friday, Nov 13, 2009 1:25PM
Rap veteran Coolio has confirmed recent reports which claimed he would replace DMX in next month's Alabama Pride celebrity mixed martial arts match.
According to Coolio, the rapper has suggested a good match-up against fighter Eric Martinez.
"I'm not a good loser, so I don't plan on losing, it will be a lot of fun and I am looking forward to seeing my fans out in Birmingham," he said in a statement. "I'm scheduled to perform on December 11th, the night of the weigh-in and I'll rock the mic the same night after I beat up Martinez." (Hip Hop Press)
A Thunder Promotions representative also explained his decision to replace X with Coolio.
"I chose Coolio because he is a great entertainer and a tough guy," President Rod Riccardi said in a statement. "Not only is he going to fight, but he is going to perform live after the weigh-ins and after the fight. The location of these performances will be announced. This event is going to be the most entertaining MMA event Birmingham has ever seen." (Press Release)
Reports of the rapper being chosen to fight landed online earlier this week.
Thunder Productions tells TMZ they have signed Coolio to the upcoming celebrity boxing match scheduled to take place in Alabama next month. They tell us Coolio has been much easier to deal with and "he is going to take this seriously." X had previously agreed to the bout, but only on the condition he was guaranteed to win. (TMZ)
X previously spoke on his anticipation to fight at the event during a radio interview last month.
"We got a phone call asking if I wanted to participate in it," X said about how the opportunity presented itself. "I'm just gonna walk in as it is man, you know what I mean? It wouldn't be fair if I trained. I think it's three two-minute rounds...[My opponent] is shorter than me and I think he weighs a little more than me. I'm 175, six feet. I got a little build on me, you know what I'm saying? I've seen him, yeah I've seen him. He's a nice guy -- when I agreed to it, I didn't know it was gonna be him...I'm going to pick one of my own songs [to walk out with.] 'What's My Name.' I'm in the studio everyday banging joints out -- I got the pens and the paper. [New album] hopefully first quarter." (106.7 The Fan)
The fight is set to take place Friday, December 11th in Alabama.

LAKE PLACID, N.Y. (AP) - A wildlife group has filed a lawsuit against a federal agency for failing to protect the Bicknell's thrush, a rare songbird that nests on top of mountains in the Adirondacks, New England and Canada.
The Center for Biological Diversity in Richmond, Vt., petitioned the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service in 2010 to make the sparrow-sized bird an endangered species. The agency determined in 2012 that the bird may quality for Endangered Species Act protection, but it has failed to make a final decision on the petition. The lawsuit was filed Thursday.
Scientists have predicted that 98 percent or more of the thrush's U.S. habitat could be lost due to climate change. Scientists have already documented annual population declines of nearly 20 percent in parts of the bird's range.

From Pierre M. Coleman comes a new web series titled Jackson & Lewis.
A new comedy web series that follows two contract killers, Jackson and Lewis, who share a dysfunctional but functional relationship. They are at the top of their game until Jackson suffers short-term memory loss from an accident. Their missions become a series of unfortunate events that are filled with mayhem and mishaps. They hire a cameraman to follow them every step of the way.
So it has a little bit of Man Bites Dog in it I guess.
Omar Scroggins and Dee Martin star as the two profile contract killers .

Even if they had not explicitly mentioned Martin and Will and hadn't named the episode "Bad Boys", the influence is obvious. It's actually too much like the film, and the camera is shaking way too much. Use the film as inspiration, but don't copy it too closely.
miktal | February 26, 2013 11:20 AM
I hate to nit-pick but why would two hitmen hire a cameraman to follow them around???
Also, and this is just a pet peeve, but I hate when characters talk directly to camera, especially to explain who they are and what they think. It`s the height of laziness.

Norman Park - A south Georgia soldier back home, at least for a little while, says letters and support from home kept him and his buddies going in the desert.
Another happy homecoming. Private First Class Nick Nixon says, "Every time I come home it's like coming to a different country, everything is changing."
The south Georgia soldier has changed too. He sighs, "I've seen a couple of things, but I don't want to get into that on air."
The 21-year-old from Norman Park was in Fallujah for seven months. He admits, "It was pretty scary when I got there. Like bombs flying out of the sky."
Stories like bombs flying over Nick are tough to take in, especially when you're Mom. But, his mother, Mary Nixon, finally got her hands on him. She looks at him and says, "It's a dream come true, it really is. I don't want to let him go, ever."
But she will have to let him go again. Nick adds, "I have people over there waiting for me to come back, just like I have people over here waiting for me to come back over here."
Back in April, we did a story with Nick's mother and sister, Pellie. The pair adopted lonely soldiers who needed an escape from reality. Nick smiles, "Glad somebody is thinking about you and takes the time out of their day while you're over there."
Something as simple as a letter brings joy in the hot desert. Nick adds, "We give each other morale."
Nixon will leave again on Wednesday. He looks down, "I don't care to go back, but I have too many people waiting for me over there."
Torn between families, those in south Georgia and those in the desert.
Private First Class Nick Nixon says his unit has to serve at least seven more months in Iraq, but the First Armor Division's deployment could be extended.

Anna Tunnicliffe, an All-American in sailing at Old Dominion University, recently was named to U.S. Sailing's 2005 World University Games Team.
The four-member siling team from the U.S. and a coach will travel to Izmir, Turkey, for the World University Games, which will be held Aug. 11-21. The U.S. will be represented by a total of four sailors in two Olympic classes: two competitors each in the Laser (a singlehanded boat for men) and the Laser Radial (a singlehanded boat for women). The other sailors named to the 2005 U.S. World University Games Team are Andrew Campbell of San Diego, Brendan Fahey of Kingston, Wash., and Jennifer Gervais of Charleston, S.C.
The Team will be accompanied by coach Gary Bodie, a former ODU head sailing coach.
Organized every two years by the International University Sports Federation (FISU), the World University Games bring together thousands of top-level collegiate athletes from around the world to compete in at least 10 sports (the number of sports fluctuates every Games). This year, 15 sports will participate in the Games, marking the second time that sailing is part of the Summer World University Games since FISU organized the first Games in 1959. USA sailors won a bronze medal at the 1998 Summer World University Games when they were held in Palma, Spain.
Tunnicliffe, a recent graduate from ODU with a bachelor's degree in accounting and decision sciences, is a current member of the U.S. Sailing Team and has been competing in regattas at home and abroad. In June, she was named College Sailor of the Year by the Inter-Collegiate Sailing Association and has been a College Women's All-American throughout her college sailing career. This year, Tunnicliffe was also named a College Coed All-American, a feat very few other women have accomplished.

This picture was taken in 2013 by daughter Jo Ann Hill. The house, located on Bender Run in Braxton Co, was built by Henry and Martha (Marks) Clowser around 1920. Martha was Ralph's father, Richard's, oldest sister. I got a lot of my information from Henry and Martha's daughter Audra. According to Audra's obituary, she died May 3, 2001 in MO and was brought back to Wooster, OH and buried with her husband and sister Oneta.
Henry, 1865-1939, and Martha (Marks) Clowser, 1978-1952, were the parents of 14 children. They raised their family in this house on Bender run in Braxton, Co. Most of the Clowser family is buried in a cemetery located barely in Braxton Co. on the Steer Creek Road. Henry's parents were Andrew Jackson and Sarah "Sally" (Moss) Clowser. I think Sally was 38 years old when she died and the marker than Henry marked her grave with says "tender mother faithful friend."
The Clowser family can trace their "roots" back to Winchester, VA and Germany. They have a special cemetery at Clowser Gap in Frederick Co, VA. Allison Martin did a lot of Clowser research and Allison and I exchanged a lot of Clowser information. I have lost contact with her but have the information she sent to me. When we lived on Pistol Fork of Crooked Fork, the Clowser homeplace was just across the hill from us. Their son, Phil, was a very close neighbor of ours.
Henry and Martha had a large farm and were very successful farmers. They raised prize Hereford cows, had 100 sheep, a handsome team of horses, some riding horses, milk cows, chickens and all of the tools it took to be successful farmers. Audra remembered a special spring house near the house where they kept their milk and food cool. The spring house is no longer there.
While shopping in Gassaway recently I ran on to Ruth (Brady) Six. Ruth was my roomate one year when were both Glenville State College students. We both had changed a lot and had trouble figuring out why we looked so familiar. Ruth says she enjoys my column. Thanks, Ruth.
I am sure the mailman is delivering lots of garden and flower seed orders. Everyone is looking forward to some nice spring weather. I, and lots of other seniors, are tired of being house bound by the cold and snow. Winter always wears out its welcome.
Old man winter is really hanging on. We had a big snow of about eight inches this past week. Travel in Gilmer Co. was bad. Son-in-law Roger Stewart cleaned off my porch and sidewalk. A big DOW road plow did a really good job of plowing our Crooked Fork roads. He even plowed the big piles of snow away from driveways. We might have had to get the tractor out to get back on the road. Thanks. I really feel for the thousands of people who lost their power because of the storm. I hope they could stay warm and keep their water pipes from freezing.

Danks has pitched well enough to get victory sooner than May 9th, but nevertheless, John earned his first career win tonight with an impressive performance tonight, going 6 2/3rds, striking out four while only allowing one run. His ERA now sits at 4.33 during the season -- it should be lower than that, but he had a couple of runs charged to him that came on a pop fly that should have been ruled an error (this happened a couple of weeks back in Detroit).
Congrats John and keep up the good work!

A young couple is wanted in connection with a New Year's Day murder at a Dickson hotel.
According to the Dickson Police Department, 23-year-old Justin Treece and his girlfriend, 20-year-old Jessie Mulder, traveled nearly 100 miles from McNairy County to meet two men within the Dickson city limits.
The two men, identified as Matthew Draper and Cody Jackson, were shot in the parking lot of the Holiday Inn Express off Highway 46 and Interstate 40 around 11:15 p.m. Tuesday.
Draper, 29, died following the shooting. Jackson, 23, was taken to Vanderbilt University Medical Center for treatment. He has since been released.
Police said the two men were cousins from Hartsville in Trousdale County.
In a news release Thursday morning, Treece was named as the alleged gunman and Mulder as a person of interest, but investigators would not say what led to the shooting.
"It just is what it is," said Detective Chad Fussell. "It just happened. I don't think there's any rhyme or reason."
Despite being shot, Draper and Jackson were able to drive themselves to a local hospital in the moments after the shooting and helped identify Treece and Mulder.
The couple was last seen leaving the Dickson area in a red or maroon, two-door Chevy Blazer with Tennessee license plate No. 830-VSM.
"We do believe that they are possibly on the run," said Fussell. "We do think that they know about the charges that are coming."
Treece is believed to be armed. Warrants have been issued for his arrest, charging him with felony murder and attempted first degree murder.
Investigators are currently working with authorities in McNairy County to find the couple. They have also reached out to other agencies for help.
"We've put it out to different states, all the info that we have, and of course getting it out to the media. That's a big part," Fussell said.
Anyone with information on the whereabouts of Justin Treece or Jessie Mulder should call Dickson Police Department at 615-441-9577.

Lay's test-crunches new flavorsBy JOSEPH PISANI
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS | February 09,2013NEW YORK — The next Lay's potato chip will taste like chicken and waffles. Or cheesy garlic bread. Or Sriracha, a hot sauce often used in Thai dishes.
Lay's is letting potato chip lovers decide which one of the three will be its newest flavor. All of them will be sold at retailers nationwide starting next week. After trying them, fans have until May to vote for their favorites. The flavor with the most votes will stay on store shelves.
But if the other two flavors sell well, they may remain in stores, too, said Ann Mukherjee, chief marketing officer at Frito-Lay. "Who knows, we don't know what's going to happen." she said. "Our intent is to keep the one that people vote for."
It's the latest promotional stunt that tries to engage customers through social media and direct interaction, much as Hasbro's Monopoly did with its recent contest that ended with the addition of a cat game token and the demise of the iron.
Lay's Chicken & Waffles, Cheesy Garlic Bread and Sriracha were suggested by three people through the company's "Do Us a Flavor" campaign. A panel of chefs and flavor experts looked though about 3.8 million submissions and selected about 20 flavors to prototype. From there, the judges picked the three finalists. Mukherjee said that each dish was cooked in the test kitchen and compared with the flavored chip.
Fans will have three ways to vote for their favorites. They can do it though Lay's Facebook page, by texting "VOTE" to 24477 or through Twitter using the hashtags (hash)SaveChickenWaffles, (hash)SaveGarlicBread or (hash)SaveSriracha.
The person who submitted the winning flavor will win $1 million, or one percent of the chip's 2013 sales, whichever is more. The runners-up will win $50,000.
Although the new flavors are not supposed to hit stores until next Tuesday, some stores have started selling them. Fans have been posting images of the bags to social networks such as Instagram and Twitter. "We started shipping them," said Mukherjee. "I think some of our retailers got excited and put it out on the floor earlier."
Lay's adds about one new potato chip flavor every year, said Mukherjee. Last year it launched the Lay's Classic BLT, made to taste like the sandwich.
This is the first time in Lay's 75-year history that it has let U.S. consumers choose the company's next flavor. Lay's, which is a unit of PepsiCo Inc.'s Frito-Lay snack business, has held similar contests in other countries.
Frito-Lay first tried such a contest in the United Kingdom for its Walkers brand in 2008. Fans came up with Walkers Chilli & Chocolate and Walkers Cajun Squirrel. Builder's Breakfast, which tasted like a full bacon, sausage and eggs breakfast, won. But the flavor has since been discontinued.MORE IN National / World BusinessWASHINGTON The Congressional Budget Office on Wednesday forecast that the U.S. Full StorySALT LAKE CITY Federal officials have proposed a two-year ban on rope-swinging from iconic Utah...

Your Key To A Sure Investment

For the professionals and young achievers, it may not be easy to separate work from life. Dedicated workers especially have a deep-seated desire to excel in their career, even if it involves losing time for them. It's a shared problem, hard work that costs many their time. In a week, five days out of seven are spent of toil, and at times, duty calls even when it is past five in the afternoon. Worse, if the person spends a lot of time traveling to and from, a big chunk of irreversible time is lost. This is precisely what Polar Mines had considered upon planning for a major development, the company's newest project shall soon rise in the heart of Ortigas Center in Pasig City, and is poised to become the top corporate and residential address.
Towering to over 34 floors right in the middle of Do'a Julia Vargas Ave., F. Ortigas Jr. Ave. (formerly Emerald Ave.), and Garnet Road, this innovative condominium will provide you the convenience of having your home just right above where you work; sparing you from the hassles of morning traffic and buzz of the busy metro, and at the same time providing you with the most comfortable condo units most amicable to be called homes.
Within close proximity to the busiest malls in the district (Megamall, Robinson's Galleria and The Podium) as well as the hippest gimmick spots (El Pueblo, The Strip, and Metrowalk) living in the Currency will sure be the best investment you can put your money into.

BELLINGHAM - A kitchen fire in a top floor apartment left three people and a pet cat without housing Saturday, March 22, according to fire officials.
No one was home when one of the residents returned around 10:30 a.m. to find smoke in the unit at Brookside Apartments, located at 2239 Woburn St., Bellingham Fire Department Battalion Chief Andy Day said.
The resident quickly worked with people from other units to use a fire extinguisher and throw water on the fire before firefighters got to the scene around 10:41 a.m., Day said.
"We got there and fire had spread into the attic area," Day said. "We got that knocked down, but there was extensive heat and smoke damage to the structure."
Three engines, a ladder truck, a medic unit and two supervisors worked on the fire. The first firefighters on scene used pressurized water extinguishers to knock down the fire, Day said.
While working, fire personnel found a cat in the residence, which they quickly resuscitated, Day said. The animal seemed to be doing well Saturday afternoon.
"The fire appears to be accidental," Day said. "It originated in the kitchen area, but we were unable to determine the exact cause."
The Mount Baker chapter of the Red Cross will assist the residents with temporary housing, Day said.
"Heat and smoke damage was extensive throughout the unit," he said. "It was on its way to becoming a full-blown fire."
No one else was displaced by the fire.

Mike Turner for Mayor in 2015?
House Democratic Caucus Chairman Mike Turner said Saturday he plans to run for re-election twice more then look at running for mayor of Nashville, reports Mike Morrow.
Turner, born and raised in Nashville, said he's been hearing rumors that he's not going to run again for his seat in the Legislature, so he decided to tell everyone his plans, including the potential mayoral run in 2015.
Nashville Mayor Karl Dean was recently sworn in for his second four-year term and could not run again. Turner told the Democratic state executive meeting of his plans Saturday. He talked about his plans at a reception at the Maxwell House Hotel prior to Saturday night's Jackson Day Dinner for the Tennessee Democratic Party at the Bicentennial Capitol Mall.
"I'm running for the House two more times, and if the opportunity is there to run for mayor I'm thinking about running for mayor. And if I'm not successful there, I'll just run for the House for the third time. I'm not going anywhere," Turner told TNReport.
"Of course that's almost three-and-a-half years away, but I am interested in it. I've had some people approach me about it. It made me start thinking about it. I've had some people in the business community and some other interested citizens -- and I won't say who -- who have said something to me about it. I was flattered, and I thought about it and told them I'd look into it."
Turner, who lives in the Old Hickory community in Nashville, is currently in his sixth term in the House.

Watson: 'My game isn't back yet' after Wimbledon loss
British number two Heather Watson has said that recent illness held her back after she was knocked out of Wimbledon by American Madison Keys.
Watson, who suffered from glandular fever earlier this year, said:
– Heather Watson
I feel like my game isn't back yet.
I don't think I served well today. I didn't have a high first-serve percentage.
My reactions are slow. I'm not moving like I usually move, getting balls back.
I don't feel like my game's there yet, so that will come back with time.
I knew going in it was going to be a tough one - and it was.

Safety First
But yea, safety. It hasn't cropped up for quite some time. I've survived. And now the path points to thriving rather than just surviving. The lowest level, the physiological needs, are taken care of. Shelter, my shelter, here at the CSH continues to be such a warm, positive, nurturing space. Even though I sometimes feel badly that I choose not to devote as much time and effort to it as the previous owner, it's still fully made of awesome. And it still gives my heart a rush everytime I pull up in the driveway. Food is okay enough without the daily scale slap and sleep is a little better than usual. Water, well, I'm carrying my insulated water bottle with me and I'm drinking more of it - I won't say a lot, but any is good. And air, obviously, I'm getting enough air. As for sex, well, my doctor released me to start having sex next week. Does he know something that I don't? ;-)
No, the physiological, safety and security needs are being met. And today, on my birthday, I'm feeling lots of love from friends, both new and old. This whole belongingness thing is pretty awesome. I have taken me, a pretty isolated, solitary person and knitted a social circle out of whole cloth through affirmation and intention. Moved out of my comfort zone and into a larger social circle populated by a few good friends and lots of people with whom I enjoy hanging out. I used to say that it was easier to get a date than to find another woman to go shoe shopping with. I'm happy to say that my 'droid is full of contacts with whom I would have no hesitation to call and invite to do cruise the clearance racks at DSW. I'm both humbled and grateful at the AMAZING people who have come into my life. And the fact that I am able to "hold on loosely" to them, if that makes any sense.
I've also begun to think of self-esteem more as self-compassion. There's a link on the sidebar to an article that talks about this and it has been very helpful in reminding me to talk to myself with the same level of compassion and love that I use for my daughter. I was just thinking about Pebbles yesterday as we come up to this wedding that she's working so hard on. In my past and possibly even my current state of self, I would be working buttonholes and if things didn't go perfectly, I would carry those imperfections and regrets forward. I just realized that Pebbles doesn't do that, or if she does, it's not at all obvious. She just gives things her best shot, I mean, seriously, her best shot, with time and talent devoted to all the details and fiddly bits and when it's over, well, it's over. It's not as though she gains or loses based upon external things. She just is. Honest to the powers that be, I.do.not.know.how she got that smart, so young, growing up in the family business of Craziness, Inc.
So on my 52nd, I'm happy to relish the gifts of this level of recovery. Happy Birthday to me. As I turn my attention to the next year, I'm thinking of what my intention will be for the upcoming 12 months. I'm sure that just the right thing will bubble up to the top. It's worked so far.
With much gratitude,

The attorney representing two hotels on Gloucester's Back Shore has agreed to reduce the number of guest units the owners would be able to add as a matter of right in his proposal for a hotel overlay district.
Under the revised proposal for an Atlantic Road hotel overlay district, the Atlantis Motor Inn and the Bass Rocks Ocean Inn would only be allowed a 10-guest unit expansion before they would have to seek a City Council Special Permit.
That's different from the 30 percent matter-of-right expansion Attorney Michael Faherty proposed in his initial submission. The 30 percent expansion provision would have allowed Bass Rocks to grow from 54 to 70 rooms, while the Atlantis, which now has 40 rooms, could have gone to 53.
The 10-unit proposal is one of several changes that Faherty made to his overlay proposal since it left the Planning Board's review to seek City Council approval.
"We've made concessions," he said.
The 10 units, he said, would allow both Bass Rocks and Atlantis to add a third floor, said Faherty, and would give owners more certainty for pursuing such projects in their efforts to remain competitive in the growing local tourism market.
"We're looking for a degree of certainty with respect to the project, so that if the applicant, the owner puts out a fair amount of money in design and all the soft costs, that they know there's an envelope that they can build as of right," Faherty said.
The overlay proposes a minimum lot are of 40,000 square feet, 750 square feet of lot per guest unit, 200 square feet of open space per guest unit. A 30 foot minimum front yard, 20 foot minimum side yards, and 30 foot minimum rear yard. The hotels can only reach 30 feet in height.
The owners can decided to put in a contiguous 10,000 square feet of open space in the front of the property rather than the 200 square feet per guest unit.

Lawyer Is Suspended Over Her Marriage to an Elderly Client
Posted Mar 9, 2011 4:59 PM CDT
By Martha Neil
Back in 2002, Linda Lowney drafted a will for her client, Thor Tollefsen, that provided for his estate to go to his sister and two nieces in Norway.
But by 2005 the 54-year-old California attorney had become involved with Tollefsen, 85. He gave her $339,000, with his nieces' consent, and the two got married in January 2006, using a confidential license, reports the San Francisco Chronicle.
Later that year, Tollefsen asked for a divorce, as the couple continued to live separately, and in 2007 he moved into a nursing home and died. Now a State Bar Court judge is calling the marriage a sham and has ordered Lowney, who has been licensed since 1978 and has no prior record of discipline, suspended from practice, the newspaper says.
In a Friday ruling, Judge Pat McElroy said Lowney "took advantage of a lonely, sick old man" and ordered her suspended.
Lowney's lawyer, Jonathan Arons, says McElroy misunderstood the relationship between the two, which was an actual marriage. He says Tollefsen's nieces were paid more than $339,000 in settlement of a civil suit they filed against Lowney.
