Here are some of the best trails in central Wisconsin, as listed in the Wausau Daily Herald and Stevens Point Journal's weekly Outdoor Recreation Guides:
Schmeeckle Reserve
The Trail of Reflections in the Schmeeckle Reserve is roughly a 1/2-mile trail that is wheelchair accessible. The trail, which consists of crushed granite and three boardwalk segments, highlights Wisconsins conservation legacy. It includes a reflection pond and a tree house, and is a great place for wildlife viewing.
Schmeeckle Reserve, a 275-acre natural area on the University of Wisconsin-Stevens Point campus, offers five miles of trails in addition to serving as the trail head for the Green Circle.
The Lake Trail, located in the 275-acre Schmeeckle Reserve on the University of Wisconsin-Stevens Point campus, is a one-mile trail. The Lake Trail, which loops around 24-acre Lake Joanis offers wildlife viewing, small beaches and water access for fishing. The trail can be accessed from Maria Drive or Michigan Avenue. Parking is available at the Schmeeckle Reserve Visitors Center, off of Northpoint Drive.
The Granite Parkway, in the 275-acre Schmeeckle Reserve on the University of Wisconsin-Stevens Point campus, is an easy half-mile hike. It begins off Maria Drive, and winds past ponds and under towering pines, and provides access to additional trails in the Schmeeckle Reserve. Prior to 1975, this is where Reserve Street ran. Parking is available along the street on Maria Drive or Michigan Avenue.
Green Circle Trail
The Riverfront Trail, a segment of the Green Circle Trail, is a 1.3-mile trail that connects two city parks along the banks of the Wisconsin River. Try starting the trail by the Riverfront Arts Center in downtown Stevens Point and head north to Bukolt Park. The asphalt-paved trail makes it accessible for hiking, jogging, biking and strollers. The trail passes along many opportunities for fishing, swimming and a number of playgrounds.
The University Trail, another segment of the Green Circle Trail, is a 1.5-mile trail with crushed granite, wood chips and paved roads. This trail is a diverse habitat of forest, prairie, wetlands and an oak savannah. Ample wildlife viewing opportunities are available along the trail designed for hikers and joggers. No pets are allowed on this segment of the trail. Try starting at the Schmeeckle Reserve Visitor Center or the Green Circle Trailhead off of North Division Street.
The West Side Loop is a 2.4-mile trail with crushed granite and sidewalks. This trail winds along the west side of the Wisconsin River, from the Clark Street Bridge (Highway 66) on the northern side to Sherman Avenue on the southern side. The trail offers distinct views of the paper mill and adjacent dam, as well as meandering through a number of wetlands and woodlands. Try starting at KASH Playground at Mead Park and follow the river south.
The Stagecoach Trail, a segment of the Green Circle Trail, is a 2.3-mile trail that is paved. This trail winds from Bukolt Park to Zenoff Park, along the Wisconsin River. The trail is named for the stage line that once ran between Stevens Point and Wausau. Once you reach Zenoff Park, be sure to explore the new trail in the Stevens Point Sculpture Park, which is adjacent to the Green Circle Trail.
Tomorrow River State Trail
Try exploring the Tomorrow River State Trail, from the Plover trail head, just north of Highway B near the Hoover Avenue Green Circle Trail spur. The 18-mile trail, once a railroad bed, cuts through the rural landscape of eastern Portage County, linking Plover to Scandinavia. Outdoor recreational enthusiasts can use the crushed limestone trail throughout the year, from snowmobiling, dog-sledding and cross-country skiing in the winter to biking, hiking and horseback riding the rest of the year. Trail passes are required (state trail passes are valid). Passes are available on the trail or at the Portage County Parks Office. (Note: The horsebacking riding trail is a separate 18-mile trail.)
The Eau Claire Dells Park
The Eau Claire Dells Park has more than five miles of hiking trails along both sides of the river that offer an up-close view of the Eau Claire River corridor. The west crossing bridge spans 120 feet of the river near the rapids, and the over bridge is on the dam near the beach area.
The trails south of the river and west of Highway Y vary from steep terrain to relatively flat sections along the river. Parking, a small shelter and restrooms are available. Take Highway Z east of Wausau, then turn left on Highway Y to find the park.
The Buena Vista Grasslands
The Buena Vista Grasslands, in southwestern Portage County, is a 11,300-acre natural area. Offering one of the most extensive grasslands east of the Mississippi River, it is home to the Greater Prairie Chicken. April is an ideal time to get out and explore the natural area, which is part of the Great Wisconsin Birding & Nature Trail. From Stevens Point, go south on Interstate 39, to Highway W about 7.7 miles to the west, to the Historical Kiosk near the intersection of highways W and F.
Each year, the Prairie Chicken Festival provides a closer look at grassland conservation and the bird. This years Prairie Chicken Festival will be held Friday through Sunday. For more information, go to the Web site at www.prairiechickenfestival.org.
Ice Age Trail
Relive the past by hiking a path once shaped by glaciers on the Ice Age Trail. Portions of this 1,000-mile footpath travel through eastern Portage County, linking history, cultures and geological features. Explore the 7.6-mile Belmont, Emmons-Hartman Creek segment. Begin near the Emmons Creek State Fishery, located in southeastern Portage County. Parking is available near Stratton Lake Road in the fishery. From Stevens Point, take Interstate 39 South to Highway 54 West. Then south on Highway D, which becomes Stratton Lake Road, parking will be on the right.
Sixteen miles of Wisconsins Ice Age Trail run through Marathon County and 7 miles of the trail run through the Dells of Eau Claire County Park. The park features a 65-foot-deep gorge with water cascading into a series of pools formed among the rock ledges.
Eastern Portage County is known for its rolling hills, which are remnants from the glaciers in the area. The Ice Age Trail, a 1,000-mile footpath, travels through far eastern Portage County, linking history, cultures and geological features. Try hiking the 5-mile segment just south of the Little Wolf River Fishery Area. Parking is available off of Highway Z, just east of Sunset Lake Road. (In 2010, a new segment was added between Highway Z and Sunset Lake Road.) From Stevens Point, take Highway 66 East to Highway Z, and parking will be on the left.
Mountain-Bay State Park Trail
Marathon County is home to 18 miles of the 83-mile Mountain-Bay State Park Trail. The Mountain-Bay Trail in Marathon County begins at the trailhead in Weston, adjacent to the Weston Municipal Center, at 5550 Municipal St.
The trail, which is made of crushed limestone and travels over generally flat terrain, meanders through the countryside near several small rural communities. Along the way, there is the opportunity to enjoy wetland flora and fauna.
George W. Mead Wildlife Area
The Audubon Prairie Nature Trail is an easy trail along wetland boardwalks and grasslands in the George W. Mead Wildlife Area in Milladore. The Mead Wildlife Area, the third largest state wildlife area, offers more than 80 miles of trails, including dikes, that explore portions of the expansive 33,000 acres. Travel west from Stevens Point on Highway 66 West to Highway HH West (the old Highway 10) to Milladore. Take Highway S North to enter the wildlife area. The Mead Education & Visitors Center, is on the right hand side.

Brochures for self-guided nature walks are available at the Jordan Park Nature Center (open Memorial Day through Labor Day).
If you are looking for a great place to paddle, try navigating from Jordan Park off of Highway 66, east of Stevens Point, to Iverson Park along the Plover River. Jordan Park offers camping as well as a Nature Center that is open in the summer. When you are ready, begin this route at the canoe ramp on the south side of Highway 66 in Jordan Park. The route will meander through generally flat water, and is an excellent trip for bird watchers in June and July.
Once you reach Iverson, enjoy a dip in the water at the swimming beach or walk a short segment of the Green Circle Trail that winds through the park. Two cars or additional transportation is necessary to complete this trip.
Stevens Point unofficial art trail
Explore downtown Stevens Point on an unofficial art trail, linking eight completed historic murals. Start on Clark Street, just east of the Clark Street Bridge, near the Rivermen mural, completed in 2004. Head east to the square to take in the Market Day mural and several Windows to the Past murals, before continuing east to the Stevens Point post office to see The Old Post Office mural. Brochures highlighting the murals and where they are located are available.
The Bitzke Waterfowl Refuge
The Bitzke Waterfowl Refuge was designated as a waterfowl refuge in 1985 by the Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources. It has five major earthen dams that provide open water for a host of songbirds, waterfowl, deer, turkey and beavers.
The trail system is about 2 miles long and follows the waterfowl flowages. There are six interpretive displays along the trail, and an observation tower, to give you a full overall view of the refuge. The trails are open year round. From Wausau, take Highway 29 east, turn north onto Highway J, turn east onto G to Rocky Road and drive north to parking lot.

text: Builders Cash in on Tax RefundsExtension of net operating loss carry-back provision to five years are returning millions of dollars to public builders, some of which are using the money to buy land at bargain prices. By John Caulfield Christmas came a little late, but with a huge satchel of gifts for many of America's largest home builders: Nearly $2 billion in total tax refunds for the last three months of 2009.On Tuesday, Pulte, the housing industry's largest builder, reported that its earnings loss for the three months ended Dec. 31, 2009 had narrowed to $116.9 million. That improvement in no small measure resulted from a whopping $800 million tax refund that Pulte gained from a law change that now allows companies carry back net operating losses up to five years.The net operating loss (NOL) carryback provision was one of the key lobbying points—the other being the extension of the federal tax credit for home buyers—that NAHB and its largest members pushed Congress hardest for to resuscitate the housing sector. Pulte's tax benefit, which helped offset $925 million in quarterly land impairments and other writedowns, is the largest among the almost $2 billion in total NOL refunds that 10 of the industry's publicly traded builders reaped in their latest quarters. (See chart below.)Two other public companies, Hovnanian Enterprises and Toll Brothers, ended their latest fiscal years before the law went into effect, and therefore reported losses for of $250.8 million and $78.8 million, respectively, in their fourth quarters. Both builders, however, intend to take full advantage of the law change. Larry Sorsby, Hovnanian's CFO, told investors that his company is "now expecting a $275 million to $295 million tax refund in our second quarter of 2010." Toll believes it will recover $161.8 million in 2010 from filing its 2009 tax return.Indeed, the tax refunds that large public builders have received so far could be just the tip of the iceberg. D.R. Horton, for one, has submitted a claim for a $352 million refund for the current quarter.During their first quarters of 2010, Ryland Group is counting on refunds of $99.4 million, Meritage Homes $93 million, KB Home $190.7 million, and Standard Pacific $103 million.Lennar is also banking on a $320 million tax refund in early 2010. "Our improved balance sheet enables us to continue to capitalize on distressed land-buying opportunities, which will improve our operating results in 2010 and beyond," said its CEO Stuart Miller.M.D.C. Holdings expects to do the same. As it was closing the books on 2009, the Denver-based builder raised new capital by issuing $250 million in new debt. M.D.C. also expects to receive a $143 million tax refund during the first quarter of 2010. "Given these enhancements to our liquidity, we are well-positioned to continue making investments in 2010 as we build our land pipeline to support future home closings," wrote M.D.C.'s chairman and CEO Larry Mizel.John Caulfield is senior editor for BUILDER magazine.Company Quarterly net income for three months ending 12/30/09 Tax refund _______________________________________________ Pulte $(116.9) million $800 millionLennar $35.6 million $251.1 millionKB Home $100.7 million $191.7 millionM.D.C.

Kunsthalle Zürich
In its still short history, the Kunsthalle Zürich has established itself as one of the most renowned houses for international contemporary art. As an active institution with a broad network, it takes up an eminent position in the local, national as well as international cultural sphere.
Since 1996 the Kunsthalle Zürich has been at the heart and centre of the Löwenbräu complex – a former brewery – next to the migros museum für gegenwartskunst, the Daros Collection and important galleries for contemporary art. A complex and pulsating platform, the Löwenbräu stands worldwide as a unique model for a site that unites commercial, private and public domains of contemporary art under one and the same roof.
Founded in 1985 the Kunsthalle Zürich features five large-scale solo or group exhibitions and – in its additional exhibition spaces "Kunsthalle Zürich Parallel" – three to five smaller exhibitions per year in alternating display formats.
In close dialogue with the artists, first survey shows of their works are usually arranged. By introducing new manners of perception and productions of mostly younger artists to a wider public, the artistically creative developments of the present time are showcased in an exemplary fashion.
Together with an extensive programme of lectures, artist's talks, symposia, public guided tours and an educational programme for children and young adults the Kunsthalle Zürich aims at making visible new ways of seeing through art, thus creating a platform for intellectual discourse and for the exchange of new thoughts and ideas.
Walid Raad "Miraculous Beginnings"
26 August – 30 October 2011
What forms, stories, gestures, and concepts are made possible by wars? How are certain events lived but not experienced? How does violence affect art, culture and tradition in material and im-material ways? The work of the artist Walid Raad, who was born in Chbanieh, Lebanon, in 1967 and currently lives, works and teaches in New York, has been revolving around these questions for 20 years now. His oeuvre includes photographs, videos, sculptures, installations and performances.
Walid Raad is one of the most important figures of his generation of young artists from the Middle East. The exhibition «Walid Raad – Miraculous Beginnings», which was organized in cooperation with the Whitechapel Gallery in London, presents a broad overview of his works from the past 20 years. The exhibition also provides insight into an oeuvre that scrutinizes the notions of document, fact, and fiction in film, photography, video, performance, history, and art history. «Walid Raad – Miraculous Beginnings» brings together the extensive groups of photographs and video works which the author created with The Atlas Group (1989–2004), his project in fiction about the Lebanese wars, and his latest project Scratching on Things I Could Disavow: A History of Art in the Arab World (2008–present), a provocative exploration by the artist of the situations, stories, and forms made possible by the recent art boom in the Middle East.
A free-standing wall system, which explores the theatrical dimension of museum-based forms of presentation and which highlights the mise-en-scène aspects of the work, was specially developed for the presentation of this visually and physically comprehensive oeuvre at the Kunsthalle Zürich in the Museum Bärengasse.
The Atlas Group (1989–2004)
The Atlas Group series of works is rooted in Walid Raad's experiences in Lebanon over the past forty years. It is mainly dedicated to the exploration and documentation of the Lebanese wars of the past few decades. The accompanying archive, The Atlas Group Archive, contains audiovisual, photographic, literary and other documents which are classified in three categories: [cat. A] – documents that are attributable to an identifiable individual; [cat. FD] – found documents; and [cat. AGP] – documents attributable to The Atlas Group. Raad's archive does not contain artworks that present immediate images of what happened during the wars. Instead, they present stories and forms linked to what can be said, thought, and imagined about the wars. Some of The Atlas Group files are attributed to fictitious figures and others to historical ones thus raising additional questions about the concept of the witness made possible by the Lebanese wars. With The Atlas Group, the artist is not seeking political or historical truth but is instead paying close attention to political, social, economic as well as narrative, emotional and aesthetic facts.
Scratching on Things I Could Disavow: A History of Art in the Arab World (2008–present)
The second project presented in the exhibition is titled Scratching on Things I Could Disavow: A History of Art in the Arab World. This project explores the emergence of a large new infrastructure for the arts in the Middle East and its effects on artistic production in the region. Walid Raad observes the emergence of new art museums, galleries, schools and cultural organisations in cities like Abu Dhabi, Amman, Beirut, Cairo and other cities with fascination. The buildings designed by internationally renowned architects – e. g. the largest-to-date Guggenheim Abu Dhabi Museum by Frank Gehry, an Abu Dhabi Louvre Museum by Jean Nouvel and the Performing Arts Centre by Zaha Hadid, all located on Saadiyat Island, the "Island of Happiness" in Abu Dhabi – are the most visible symptoms of this emerging infrastructure, and also stand for Raad as the distorted mirror through which to view how art and culture in the Arab world have been affected materially and immaterially by the various conflicts that have ravaged the region in the past century. Raad's artworks present some of the unusual forms, colours, and stories made possible by this massive investment in art in the Middle East.

Wall street is being occupied. Europe is collapsing in on itself. Around the world, people are consumed by fear and anger, and one question is on everyone's lips: Is the financial crisis over, or are we headed towards economic disaster?
End of the Road is a documentary film that chronicles the global financial collapse. Told in an entertaining and easy to follow style, the film tells the story of how the world came to be in such a state, from the seeds sown after WWII, to the current troubles facing us today, and to the possible future that may await us all. Some of the world's top economic minds share the hidden tale behind the mishandling of the world's finances, give insight into how bad policy and a flawed monetary system joined together to create a catastrophe, as well as sharing their own personal advice on how the average person can best prepare for the future.
End of the Road gained critical acclaim worldwide after its 2012 release. It has since won several awards including the "Best Social Issue Documentary Award" at the 2012 Atlanta International Documentary Festival.

Lady Antebellum Gets Nostalgic In New 'Goodbye Town' Video
Radio.com InterviewsKacey Musgraves
Gene Simmons
Courtney Love
Radio StationsBEST OF 2013 (SO FAR)
VideosARTIST PROFILES RADIO.COM CHANNEL
Lady Antebellum's new video for "Goodbye Town" takes a sad look at the one who got away.
On the song, which appears on Lady A's brand new album Golden, singer Charles Kelley waxes poetic about his high school sweetheart who managed to get out of the small town where they grew up.
In the blue-tinted clip, Kelley takes us on a tour of the town. He shows us where they had their first kiss under the football bleachers; and we see the courthouse steps, where so many others got married right out of high school.
While his lady was able to get out quick, he's struggling to leave, singing, "The streets are only bringing me down/Gotta find a way to finally get out."
Eventually we see his grown-up ladylove. Is she really back in town? Or just haunting Kelley's dreams? Watch to find out.
Golden is available now on iTunes.

Arizona's offense was very bad last season and not much, if any, better through seven games this year.
A new, offensive-minded coach and a new quarterback have yet to solve the issue that has been at the heart of the franchise's problems since Kurt Warner retired after the 2009 season.
Now coach Bruce Arians and quarterback Carson Palmer are looking at a schedule over the next month that holds hope for something better.
Palmer calls it a stretch of "very winnable games."
It starts with an Oct. 27 home game against Atlanta. That will be followed by a bye week, then a home game against Houston and a trip to Jacksonville.
That's a bit less daunting than facing San Francisco and Seattle in a five-day span.

Routes Sorted
L to R R to L Alpha
This route is a right-leaning mostly-fingers broken crack system that increases in difficult to a crescendo in the final moves. Although there are some solid finger-locks, the crack also has many intermittent 'plates' that induce side-pulling and other techniques. Great feet, good rests and aesthetic positioning make this route a must-do! I haven't seen too many people on it, but it is definitely a high-quality route.
The route is located left of the huge roof that marks Monolith Wall/Buttress. Very obvious from the trail. Shuts at the top.
Standard rack. I found it useful to have a few larger pieces, BD 1, 2 and 3 although most is in the finger range. The flaring top-section, though wide-looking, had bomber placements for both a blue alien and orange metolius.

The University of Findlay volleyball team made it back-to-back losses against top 25 opponents following a 3-0 (25-19, 25-14, 25-11) loss to Great Lakes Intercollegiate Athletic Conference leader #20 Grand Valley State on Saturday, October 19.
The Oilers will be glad to leave the state of Michigan following the most difficult weekend on their schedule where they dropped all six sets in the two matches they played. The two teams Findlay played this weekend, Ferris State and Grand Valley State, are a combined 20-2 in the GLIAC.
Leading the offense for the second day in a row was senior hitter Mackenzie Vorst who gathered seven kills in the match.
Sophomore Julie Lyons' five kills were good for the second most on the team.
Senior Danielle Taflinger had three kills and also two blocks on the day.
Collecting four kills for Findlay were junior Amanda Calhoun and freshman Hannah Tong. Calhoun, the Oilers' setter, filled the stat sheet by adding 21 assists and seven digs.
Senior Brittany Hall played well defensively as she netted eight digs in the three-set loss.
Junior Samantha Granger, sophomore Becca Shoemaker, and senior Jacqui Endre collected four, three and three digs, respectively.
The Findlay women will be back in action next weekend, Friday and Saturday, October 25-26 for the GLIAC/GLVC (Great Lakes Valley Conference) Crossover. The Oilers will be in Aurora, Illinois on Friday and in Chicago, Illinois on Saturday with teams and times for both days to be determined.

Catching up on the arts beat
What with the holidays and all, some stuff in my inbox slipped through the cracks. Here's a digest of tidbits:
NEA HONORS: The Lively Arts Foundation landed a $10,000 grant from the National Endowment for the Arts. It's one of 162 Challenge America Fast-Track Grants awarded nationwide. From Lively Arts' press release:
The award is to help support the Foundation's Discover Dance Outreach presentation of Alonzo King's LINES BALLET in "Scheherazade" at the William Saroyan Theatre, Friday evening, February 24, and will also help underwrite a contemporary ballet master class for dedicated Central Valley dancers as well as an introductory movement class in the celebrated Alonzo King idiom for interested community members who may be only recreational or casual dancers.
In addition to its internationally-celebrated interpretation of "Scheherazade" the LINES company on Feb. 24 will also perform its popular "Dust and Light;" contemporary ballet choreography to 15 classical melodies of Faith by Archangelo Corelli and Francis Poulenc.
NEW LEADERSHIP FOR 'NEW WRINKLES': Fred Bologna and Dede Nibler, longtime members of the creative team for the stalwart senior musical revue "New Wrinkles," will be leaving the show after this year's installment, which opens May 25. Bologna has moved to Carmel, though he'll continue to commute to direct this year's show. And Nibler plans to move to Hollister to be closer to her son and his family. From a letter they wrote to company members:
We wanted you to know of our changing circumstances early in this season in case you wish to organize a director search. Any candidates wishing to attend rehearsals this year to see what we are doing would be welcome. This is not to say that the new director will recreate what has been in the past, but it may give them some ideas.
Our nine years have been filled with many wonderful experiences and memories. We have made many wonderful friends who, we hope, will remain in our lives. Thank you for your dedication to New Wrinkles. We truly hope that you will carry on the heart and spirit of New Wrinkles.
"New Wrinkles," held each year at Fresno City College, started in 1988.
HONORS FOR 'CHET': I already alluded to this in my list of Top 20 cultural events of 2011, but here are more details: Chuck Erven's original play "The Ballad of Chet (On the Eve of His Bliss)" has been nominated for the David Mark Cohen award from the Kennedy Center. Erven writes:
The Cohen award is for any new play that was produced by and premiered at a University or College. The award, considered one of the top playwriting awards in the country is sponsored by the Kennedy Center in Washington, D.C.. Past winners have included Romulus Linney, Mark St. Germain and Ed Emmanuel. I was previously nominated and placed in the top three in 2006 for Canyon Suite. The Ballad of Chet (On the Eve of His Bliss) is now one of fourteen plays in the running for the national award. The final selection will be made in early April.
Pictured: Danette Moser and Nick Haas in the March production of "Chet" at Fresno City College.
NO 'XANADU': The StageWorks Fresno production of "Xanadu," planned for Feb. 3-19, has been scrubbed. The next StageWorks production is "Master Class," a co-production with Fresno Grand Opera, which will run April 27-29.
STONE BOOK: Masonry artist and contractor Bobby Pierson, who lives with his artist-wife Lucy Hunt-Pierson in a gorgeous home/studio in the hills of O'Neals, is one of eight stone artists featured in the new book "Built With Stone: Eight Contemporary Artisans" by Steven Paul Whitsitt & Jesse Marth."

MADISON, Wis. (AP) - The leader of the Wisconsin Assembly says University of Wisconsin System regents need to protect taxpayers' money.
Rep. Robin Vos, a Burlington Republican, was part of a panel of legislators and system officials that gathered to discuss how to improve relationships between lawmakers and the system as the regents begin to search for a new system president.
Vos said the regents need to be less of a cheerleader for the system and more of a watchdog for taxpayers, saying too many students are taking too long to graduate and are running up tremendous debt.
Republicans have heaped criticism on the system after news broke earlier this spring that UW had built a $650 million budget surplus that included $414 million in tuition. President Kevin Reilly announced his resignation in July.
MADISON (WKOW) – UW System Regents will meet with lawmakers on Thursday to discuss the system's multi-million dollar reserve.
A number of legislators have been clashing with UW Regents since learning the system had a large $650 million reserve, but they were still increasing tuition.
The meeting on campus on Thursday is described as a "frank talk" to improve collaboration.
Assembly Speaker Robin Vos and Senators Alberta Darling and Shiela Harsdorf are among those attending.

ICF International
Categorized Under: Families + Communities, Health
ICF International, in collaboration with Advocates for Human Potential (AHP), is conducting a study to develop information on how U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) programs are currently addressing the needs of victims of human trafficking, including domestic victims (i.e., citizens and legal permanent residents), with a priority focus on domestic youth. This issue brief focuses on the identification of international and domestic victims of human trafficking in the United States and presents the inherent challenges to identifying victims based on the definition provided in the Trafficking Victims Protection Act of 2000 (TVPA), as well as promising strategies undertaken by law enforcement, service providers, and other organizations to identify and reach victims.

The patients at the Pathways to Care respite center in Casselberry scanned their cards for an instant before looking back at my 7-year-old son with wrinkled brows.
He looked at the ball again and began giggling.
"Oops," he said with crooked grin. "B-14!"
The scene was largely unremarkable — a little boy and his big sister calling bingo while a dozen or so adults worked in the kitchen, preparing a spaghetti-and-salad lunch.
And yet unremarkable was just what these patients needed. The residents of this care center, after all, are largely there because they have no other choice. They are recovering from surgery and illness and have nowhere else to go. Some are homeless.
They needed a break from their reality.
So, on this Saturday afternoon, the residents got lunch and entertainment — and some of the volunteers got theme-park tickets.
That's right, theme-park tickets.
This past weekend marked the first chance to take part in Disney's new "Give a Day, Get a Disney Day" promotion — in which anyone can earn a free ticket to a Disney park simply for volunteering.
It is an amazing idea.
Families can choose from hundreds of activities in their own community — building a house, visiting a nursing home, stocking a food pantry or sprucing up a playground — and earn a free ticket in the process.
You can volunteer by yourself and get one ticket. Or you can volunteer as an entire family — there are activities for children as young as 6 — and the whole family gets tickets.
You give something of yourself. And in return, you get something for yourself.
If you want to give a bit more, you can donate your free tickets to the Boys & Girls Clubs. That's what my family did.
This program would be a great idea anytime. But it's particularly opportune now when we're neck-deep in a recession. People want to help but are short on money to make cash donations.
There may be cynics who view this as just another marketing ploy by Disney to get folks into its park.
But think about it for a minute. Disney could've come up with any of a million different lures. In fact, in last year's promotion, all you had to do was show up on your birthday to get in free.

I really am not much interested in stats. I don't feel better that we may win more games this year than last. I am not appeased we have the hitter of a generation, the Rookie of the Year, the MVP and the Cy Young...its nice, love to watch them play...but don't care much unless they play October baseball. I'm guessing those guys feel the same. You know Torii does.
So the question is when do the Angels get serious about being an effective October team and finally jettison the turn the page mentality? When do they dump the guy who says he never looks at the standings? When do they dump the guy that uses 210 lineups in a 162 game season--ok a slight exaggeration--? When do they dump the guy who still thinks Vernon Wells has an upside and benches the teams home run leader?
Its on him and his pitching coach...after all the batting coach thing worked out didn't it?
Three years...three times...and in baseball parlance, you're out!
When does Scioscia leave? Does he resign and become a team "consultant"? Does he get fired? When?
Today....to give the guys an even chance at sweeping Seattle
October...when everyone is watching someone else play baseball.
November...when the World Series fever breaks
December...when the fat man sings "ho, ho, ho"
January....when Arte wakes up from his hangover
None of the above...when more and more of the three million paid decide to stay home - and for good reason.

Asafa Powell's case to resume on February 12
AN agonising couple of weeks await former world 100m record holder Asafa Powell after his anti-doping hearing case was adjourned until February 12-13.
Just like Sherone Simpson's case, which will resume a week earlier, the scheduled two days of hearing was not adequate and will resume with Professor Wayne McLaughlin testifying mainly about the purpose and significance of oxilofrine.
Both athletes tested positive for the stimulant oxilofrine at the Jamaica National Championships last June and have since identified the supplement, Epiphany D1, as the product that triggered their adverse analytical findings.
Yesterday's hearing got underway with Gregory Plummer, a close friend of Powell for 10 years, testifying that the runner had rigorously researched the supplement, Epiphany D1.
Plummer claimed he was just curious this time, as to how athletes do their research and basically assisted his friend in his Google search and perused the World Anti-Doping Agency (WADA) Prohibited List.
But when quizzed as to why he chose to assist or watch Powell research only the Epiphany D1 supplement from the nine that he got from Chris Xuereb, Plummer replied.
"The reason why that name stands out to me that much is because my girlfriend, her name is Tiffany...I can't forget it," replied Plummer.
But it was when Paul Doyle, the agent of both athletes, took the witness stand that fireworks began.
It was Doyle who recommended Canadian physical trainer Christopher Xuereb to Powell, which the defence is trying to prove started this chain of events.
The qualifications and credibility of Xuereb were severely scrutinised as Lackston Robinson, representing JADCO, introduced articles published in Canada that totally discredited Xuereb as not qualified, even as a physiotherapist.
The article, published on July 18, 2013 and written by Greg McArthur and Tu Thanh Ha, was read by Robinson. It quoted a spokeswoman for the Ontario College of Physiotherapists stating that Xuereb isn't even qualified to design a physiotherapy treatment plan in Ontario.
"He is not a doctor in Ontario. He is not registered as a chiropractor in Ontario. He is not a registered massage therapist in Ontario. He is not registered with the province's college of physiotherapists, the self-regulating body that ensures people who hold themselves out as physiotherapists have passed the necessary competency tests and have at least an undergraduate degree," the article stated.
But Doyle remained steadfast and insisted that although Xuereb is not certified he "was qualified to work on Asafa".
Another article introduced by Robinson also claimed that Xuereb was fired by Canadian physician Anthony Galea, who himself was later investigated and charged for giving athletes performance-enhancing drugs in 2011.
Doyle said he had no knowledge that Xuereb worked with Galea, but heard of the FBI case involving Galea.
Doyle reiterated that he hired Xuereb because he was highly recommended by a Dr Carmen Stillo.
"I did not do a formal background check," Doyle admitted under cross-examination from Robinson, saying Xuereb's employment was solely on recommendation and a trial period in Jamaica.
"What is Dr Stillo's occupation?" asked Robinson.
"He's a chiropractor," answered Doyle confidently.
Robinson continued: "Is Mr Xuereb a chiropractor?"
"Not to my knowledge," said Doyle.
"Is he a medical doctor?"
"No, he is not," Doyle replied.
"Is he a registered physiotherapist?"
"I do not know," said Doyle.
"Did you try to find out?" asked Robinson.
"No, I did not try to find out if he had any certifications. I just knew his practical experience," said Doyle.
Robinson also asked Doyle if he knew one Esther Akinsulie, and the agent replied no.
Jamaica Observer checks revealed that Akinsulie is a Canadian athlete who was suspended for six months for a banned diuretic early last year. The article by Tim Almanciak claimed that she was the girlfriend of Xuereb.
Doyle also revealed that Powell's former coach Stephen Francis was not pleased initially with the addition of Xuereb to MVP.
"He...what you would call it, kissed (hissed) his teeth and said, 'mi don't like Canadians'," said Doyle, while being questioned by Kwame Gordon.

Ludlow man to be arraigned on $8,000 theft chargeJuly 29,2013MOUNT HOLLY — A Ludlow man is scheduled to be arraigned today on charges related to the April theft of nearly $8,000 in sporting equipment.
Vermont State Police said they responded to a burglary complaint at a residence on Fenn Road in Mount Holly on April 12. According to police, someone broke into the home and stole a pair of Specialized racing bicycles — valued at $7,600 — and some ski equipment.
Police later found the bicycles for sale and allegedly traced them back to Justin Clouart, 24. According to police, Clouart was in possession of the equipment around the time of the burglary and sold the equipment to others.
Friday, police located Clouart during a traffic stop in Weathersfield. Police charged Clouart with possession of stolen property. He was held in Springfield prison on $12,000 bail and is expected to appear today in Rutland criminal court.MORE IN This Just InTOWNSHEND — A 26-year-old Townshend man shot his off-again, on-again girlfriend late...

Walter Beaman Jones on Gun Control
Republican Representative (NC-3)
OnTheIssues.org explanation: This bill is a response to the success of tobacco lawsuits, which resulted in cigarette manufacturers paying billions to compensate for the long-term negative health effects of tobacco use. Gun manufacturers grew concerned that the same sort of lawsuit would be applied to guns.
While widely recognized today as a major political force and as America's foremost defender of Second Amendment rights, the National Rifle Association (NRA) has, since its inception, been the premier firearms education organization in the world. But our successes would not be possible without the tireless efforts and countless hours of service our nearly three million members have given to champion Second Amendment rights and support NRA programs.
The following ratings are based on lifetime voting records on gun issues and the results of a questionaire sent to all Congressional candidates; the NRA assigned a letter grade (with A+ being the highest and F being the lowest).
Establishes a national standard for the carrying of concealed firearms (other than a machinegun or destructive device) by non-residents. Authorizes a person who has a valid permit to carry a concealed firearm in one state and who is not prohibited from carrying a firearm under federal law to carry a concealed firearm in another state:

What's wrong with these Cats?
I've read a lot from a number of fans, sites, supposed experts, and coach's about this year's Wildcats. Usually I have my own, sometimes overly harsh theory of why they aren't playing the way I want them to, but this year is different. From the beginning I've liked this team better than most teams of the past.
The first crack I saw was in Maui like many of us. But, as the great Leonard Cohen says, "Everything has a crack in it, that's how the light gets in." The team I saw playing was not the same team I had been watching several nights in a row before that game. They were slow to react defensively and didn't seem to want to make the extra pass on offense. UConn toyed with them and there was no obvious response. And there went the light ... that they were just plain tired.
It seems to me from then on is when the short rotation began to have it's ups and downs. And being loaded with freshman, the mental aspect of a long season with a thin bench has been more costly and affected this team's mental toughness to a larger degree. Yet, while the naysayers complain, and despite the close road losses, the team has relentlessly remained in the kenpom.com top ten all season. It seems to me that this is the most underrated Kentucky team by the fans and media I have ever witnessed in the last 45 years.
This team could win it all.
Calipari has once again been playing with the chemistry and the psychology of his team through the media, but this team has seemed to teeter on the edge of collapse instead of responding in the ways he has wanted. But I don't believe that will happen, and in the end this may his most masterful job yet.
Think about it. Five of the top six players were in the top 10 of their high school recruiting class. All six players can shoot the basketball, so if someone isn't shooting well another can step in. Their defense is arguably one of the best in the nation. There are two or three first rounders on this team, but likely four or five NBA roster players in the end (I think Miller and Liggins have a place in the NBA).
When they are rested and pumped to play, they demolish teams instead of squeak by them.
This team can win it all because the competition is razor thin at the top, evidenced by the way the top teams struggle to stay there each week. All it will take is a playing their game and avoiding a cold streak, and some luck staying out of foul trouble. Here's who else I think has a chance to go far despite the fact that no one is talking about them as final four candidates:
West Virginia, Illinois, Purdue, Georgetown, Louisville, North Carolina ... and my best sleeper pick along with the Kentucky's Wildcats: Wisconsin. So,what do you think?
What's wrong with these Cats?

Mark Munoz: Rousimar Palhares.
Sonnen is going to fight Anderson next, like it or not. If Bisping beats Mayhem, I think he's next in-line after Sonnen. Matching Munoz against Okami will make for a awfully boring fight, Vitor is fighting Rumble next, and Maia just "lost" to Munoz...thus we are left with the one and only PaulHarris. It also gives both guys a chance to get a big win and still have time to get another fight in, before getting a shot.
In a perfect world, the UFC would match Barao up with a guy like Demetrious Johnson, or Benevidez, to see if he's really a top 5 fighter. But by doing that, the UFC would risk one of their stars-in-the-making losing. Giving Barao a fight with Torres will guarantee fireworks, and also allows for a fight against a bigger name opponent with a very similar style. This would all go to waste if Torres loses against Nick Pace on November 19th, which in that case, I would have him fight Michael McDonald.
Although the win over Papy Abedi was impressive, his loss to Rick Story is to fresh in my head to consider him a top 10 WW again. I'd like to see him fight Thiago, mostly because Thiago does his best to put on exciting fights, but he's been feed a steady diet of fighters who prefer to take him down over and over again. A fight with Alves would allow both fighters to try to implement their totally different game plan, and still keep the fight exciting.
Markes is a best, plain and simple. He came in on short notice and out wrestled Karlos Vemola ( a 6 time Czech National Champ) in rout to a dominating win. He's only 22 years old, and hopefully the UFC can bring him along at the proper speed so that he doesn't get tossed into any fights he isn't ready for. This match up is pretty favorable for Markes, but as a almost-40 year old LHW, Perosh shouldn't be expecting to many favorable matchups for the rest of his career.
Etim is a very confusing fighter. Some times he looks like a top 10 fighter, then other times he looks like he's still a rookie. Its hard to believe that Etim has fought in the UFC 9 times already (with a record of 6-3). He's always an exciting fighter, with a very good stand up game, and a submission game in which his record will speak for (12 of his 15 wins are by subs). All that said...he's still a prospect. Sass is also a very good grappler, with a 12-0 record, 11 wins by sub (8 by triangle, 3 by heel hook). A fight between the two could be either very one sided if Etim was able to keep it on the feet, or a hell of a grappling match if Sass is able to get it to the ground.
John Maguire: Papy Abedi.
Maybe this is me being lazy, but I actually think this is a good match up. Maguire is now 1-0 in the UFC, and Abedi is 0-1, but his fight was a much higher profile fight. Abedi has the charisma, look, and skills to be a huge fan favorite, and a fight against a guy like Maguire would be a good fight, with a win from Maguire putting him at 2-0 and a win for Abedi gets him back on track.
Philip De Fries: Oli Thompson.
Assuming the UFC goes back to the UK in 2012, they should book a match that was originally supposed to happen. De Fries looks like he can be a problem on the ground, but really wasn't able to get too close in any sub attempts against Broughton. Giving him another UFC new comer makes sense, hopefully giving the hometown fans someone to cheer for.
Michihiro Omigawa: Bart Palaszewski.
Omigawa is now 1-2 in the UFC, but he really should be 2-1. He' still not back in the top 10 yet, but giving him a fight with a guy coming off of the biggest win of his career would be a benefit to both fighters. Palaszewski is a fighter who's always a gamer, but has been totaly inconsistent throughout his whole career. Hopefully moving down to 145 gives him some stability, but its doubtful.
Che Mills: Erik Silva.
Mills, a UFC newcomer, destroyed a overly matched Chris Cope (who will probably be over-match against everyone in the UFC that wasn't on the same season of TUF as he was). A fight against Erik Silva, who also destroyed his opponent in his octagon debut would guarantee a fast KO or some great stand up at least. A win over the other would give both guys a huge career boost.
Chris Cariaso: Damacio Page.
I feel embarrassed. Casiaro has now had 5 fights under the Zuffa banner, and I haven't seen one. It appears as though he's a tough fighter with his losses coming to the fighters at the upper echelon of the division. Page is coming off of two straight losses, both two of the top 5 BW in the world. A fight between these two would be a good judge to see where each should stand in the rankings.
At this point in his career, its almost a guarantee that Chris Leben will never fight for the title. I'd like the UFC give him some fights where he can stand and bang, hopefully get some extra bonus cash, but not get embarrassed either. Belcher came back from injury and destroyed Jason MacDonald. Giving him a fight with Leben will give him the opportunity to make a name for himself, and add to his resume.
Easton, the training partner of Champ Dominic Cruz, burst into the UFC with a 2nd round TKO just a month ago. Easton comes very heralded with a "win" over former champ Chase Beebe, and a win TUF 14 favorite John Dodson. In a division desperate for some stars, a fight with Pickett would make-or-break Easton. Plus, the UFC doesn't want to have an AKA situation on their hands with a guy like Easton moving up to a top 5 ranking, while refusing to fight his teammate in Cruz.
Papy Abedi: John Maguire.
Like I said above, this is a fight that works well for both guys. Maguire has the chance to get a win over a closely ranked opponent, but a guy that also just fought on the main card of a numbered UFC event. Abedi gets the chance to get a win under the UFC banner and get back on track to fighting the upper echelon of the division.
Cyrille DIabate: Fabio Maldonado.
Cyrille Diabate is maybe my least favorite LHW in the UFC. All we hear about when he fights in his technique and precision and whatever. He's a good striker, but its almost like he doesn't care when he fights. He's so relaxed that its annoying. Maldonado is coming off of a close decision loss to Kyle Kingsbury, in which he punished "Kingsbu" with body shots the whole fight. Both are talented strikers, so I'm pretty sure someone will get knocked out.
Edward Faaloloto: Cut.
His career record is 2-3 with an 0-3 UFC record... He doesn't belong in the UFC. Plus his name is too damn hard to pronounce.
Justin Edwards: Cut.
Honestly, I didn't find his fight with John Maguire to be as exciting as everyone made it out to be, but thats just me. He's 1-2 in the UFC, with his only win coming in a close decision to a UFC newcomer.
Rob Broughton: Cut...but if not, Christian Moorecraft.
Broughton is another guy who should probably get cut, but probably wont. He's 1-2 in the UFC with 2 straight losses in 2 months. But because he filled in on really short notice, he'll probably get a 1 fight grace period before he gets cut. Outside of Oli Thompson and Phil De Fries, Moorecraft is the lowest ranked HW in the UFC that I can think of, so I'll let these two fight to see who sticks around and who doesn't.
I really like Jason Young. He's gotten beat up by the better fighter in two straight fights (Dustin Poirier and Omigawa), but he's also looked good, both times, in defeat. Giving him a fight against Garcia will give him an opportunity to fight a guy with stand up skills more on his level, and it will also give Leonard a good shot at getting his 5th FOTN bonus.
Chris Cope: Cut.
No way this guy should be fighting in the UFC. I don't care what anyone says, he doesn't have the skills, athleticism, or stamina to beat anyone in the UFC welterweight division.
Vaughan Lee: Charlie Valencia.
Another British fighter that I know nothing about. He put on a good scrap with Cariaso, and if he doesn't get cut, a fight with Valencia would give both these guys a chance to get a much needed win.

They city of Aberdeen held an envelope auction this afternoon to sell a parcel of surplus real-estate.
Approximately 4.1 acres of land on Mel Rose Drive was up for purchase.
The land was appraised at more than $350,000 dollars.
Lynn Lander, the city manger told KSFY News the city did not receive any bids on the land.
This comes down to mostly timing," Lynn said. "With other sub-divisions going up in the area, it was tough for a purchaser to commit on the land."
The near two square blocks of land is located closely to Aberdeen Central High school and classified as R-2 zoning, meaning only residence buildings can be erected.
With the surplus of jobs being available and more people moving to Aberdeen the city has constructed 741 places of residence.
"The city will continue to own the land and maintain its upkeep." Lynn told KSFY.

When Tennessee hired Cuonzo Martin to replace Bruce Pearl, I thought it was a good choice at the time.No, Martin wasn't Bruce Pearl. It would have been almost impossible for any coach to duplicate what Pearl did for Tennessee basketball.Pearl gave his team freedom to take 3-pointers. He loved a fast-breaking game with speed and quickness. Players loved playing for him. He was coaching a player-friendly game.Martin was a disciplinarian. He honed in on emphasizing defense, rebounding and most of all, toughness. In his three years, they have been grinders, favoring a half-court offense. His style is close to opposite to the one Pearl won with."Toughness has got to be what we are as a program,'' Martin said. "That's our brand, our way of life.''This is his third season and a quest for his first NCAA Tournament appearance is in peril. If they fail to make the tournament, it's likely next season will be even worse.They lose seniors Jerrone Maymon, Jordan McRae, Antonio Barton and D'Montre Edwards. It is highly likely that junior Jarnell Stokes will enter the NBA Draft, although his offensive game is lacking at the NBA level. He has difficulty getting his shots off now. At 6-8, NBA players will make him eat even more attempts to muscle the ball up and in.If Stokes does go, the Vols will lose 54 points and 25.7 rebounds a game. That would leave only 19.1 points and 13.6 rebounds returning from this year's team.So, does Tennessee Athletics Director Dave Hart want to watch another disappointing season? He did not hire Martin and to allow him to coach another season will be putting the program further behind in what has become a weak basketball conference.No. 3 Florida and No. 14 Kentucky are the only two SEC teams in the current Top 25.The fan interest that Pearl created has waned. Pearl is the elephant in the room. Fans don't see the passion, the pizzazz they did when Pearl was calling the shots. As an AD, Hart cannot ignore the deterioration. Fans mean money. Athletics Directors understand the money part of sports.Tuesday's home loss to Florida was a telling sign.The Gators beat the Vols at their own game. They out-rebounded the Vols, 39-32. They retrieved 18 offensive rebounds. They smothered loose balls. They forced turnovers. In crunch time, it was the Gators that took over the game.Florida had lost six of the last seven games in Thompson-Boling Arena. The Gators arrived with their teeth sharpened."We knew we had to go in there and bleed and battle and fight and bite and scratch to come up with some loose balls,'' said Florida's Patric Young.Vols fans had to know their team was in trouble when it made 62.5 percent of its shots in the first half, yet led by only one point. Still they had chances to win the game, but saw Florida close with a flurry and take a nine-point win back home.It dropped Tennessee's RealTimeRPI.com ranking to No. 49. For comparison, Vanderbilt's RPI slipped to No. 85 after losing at home to Arkansas. The Commodores are playing with seven scholarship players. They also have a home win over the Vols.The Vols have seven regular season games remaining. They are an unimpressive 15-9 overall, 6-5 in SEC play. If I were on the NCAA Tournament Selection Committee, the Vols would need to run the table going into the SEC Tournament.That would give them 22 wins. It is doable if they play to their potential. It's a big IF.Road trips to Missouri, Texas A&M, Mississippi State and Auburn are mixed in with home games against Georgia, Vanderbilt and Missouri. Not impossible by any means.Bracketologist Jerry Palm predicts Florida and Kentucky are the only safe SEC teams when it comes to making the Big Dance."Everybody else, they all could miss,'' Palm said.I think deciding Martin's future is simple. If he fails to make the NCAA Tournament, Hart needs to make a change.Contact wkrn.com Sports Columnist Joe Biddle at email@example.com.

I found this little nugget stashed away on MLBtraderumors:
Peter Bourjos, meanwhile, is still prominent on the Nationals' wish list for center fielders, but the Angels want considerable value back if they deal him. With Torii Hunter in the final year of his contract, there is room for the Halos to keep both Bourjos and Mike Trout.
Torii Hunter's comment that he wants to play for 2 or 3 more years made a lot of headlines over the slow news weekend. Since we have Trout waiting to rise to superstardom, the living statue of Vernon Wells set up in Left Field and Peter, The Fastest Man on Earth, Bourjos Covering 50% of the Outfield by himself, it looks like Hunter will be moving on.
While I have immense confidence in DiPoto's skills, I doubt even he can move Vernon Wells at this point. But, what if he is looking at moving Bourjos to the Nationals or some other team? What kind of return could he net? Assuming that Hunter would stick around (seems reasonable since he was begging Arte to give him a bench role earlier in the offseason) at a discounted rate and keep giving us his .280/ 25 HR production, what kind of return would he have to pull to trade Bourjos to make a deal like this work?
The more I think about this scenario, the more it doesn't seem to work. Certainly DiPoto is creative enough to pull something off, but we arent the ones with the need. Clearly we can keep Bourjos, let Hunter walk and insert Trout into RF for 2013. There is no need to rush him and another year in the minors shouldn't hurt anything. While Trout would be able to survive major league pitching, another year of experience should definitely help him.
As for potential swaps, we are set at 1B, 2B, OF, and Starting pitching, although a #5 of Strasburg or Zimmermann is certainly appealing... If Aybar is locked up long term, that leaves 3B, C and Bullpen as areas of need. I'm going to ignore any bullpen options since with DiPoto's minor moves we are deep and cheap, the way it should be. Trading Bourjos for a bullpen arm would be a mistake.
So 3B or Catcher, both positions the Nationals have young, talented players that would be fair in a swap for another young talented player in Bourjos. Both Wilson Ramos and Ryan Zimmerman would be great to pull in a trade from a position of depth. However, the chances that Nationals go for it seem remote. Teams usually fall in love with the stars they develop and don't like to part with them. All of this leads me to one conclusion, Torii Hunter will be playing somewhere else in 2013 if he decides the Bobby Abreu role isnt good enough for him. Because teams are reluctant to trade their young stars, its highly unlikely we would get a fair return for Bourjos and I have confidence DiPoto is smart enough not to trade him for anything other than another young star.

text: I dont really know too much about him at all, but with the Hawks last year Jones averaged 3.0 ppg 2.8 rpg. and his is 6-10. I dont know where he would fit into the equation with an already crowded Pacers frontcourt streaming with Hibbert, McRoberts(officially signed today), Foster, Hansbrough, and Murphy. That being said Jones is still very young and has shown flashes potential to be a good rebounder. So what do you think, do you want the Pacers to scoop up Solomon Jones?
