BOSTON (BP)--With one monumental victory behind them, "gay marriage" advocates in Massachusetts now are looking to change state law and allow same-sex couples from other states to "marry."
Under current Massachusetts law, out-of-state couples -- with the exception of those from Rhode Island -- are prohibited from "marrying" under a 1913 law that prevents a couple from acquiring a license if it wouldn't be recognized back home.
But "gay marriage" supporters want to overturn that law, and they have the support of the governor, House speaker and Senate president, all Democrats. They no doubt also have political momentum, having defeated a proposed constitutional marriage amendment June 14. A "yes" vote would have placed it on the 2008 ballot. The loss was a devastating one for pro-family groups.
"As a strong supporter of gay marriage rights, the speaker believes the so-called 1913 law is outdated and unfair," David Guarino, a spokesman for House Speaker Salvatore DiMasi, told the Associated Press. "He believes it should be repealed."
But conservatives warn that such a change in the law would have significant consequences nationwide, perhaps leading to lawsuits in others states by homosexual couples wanting to have their marriage licenses recognized back home.
"It will open the floodgates for Massachusetts to become the Mecca for same-sex marriage," Kris Mineau, president of the Massachusetts Family Institute, told AP. "Their goal is to strike down the marriage restrictions in every state. Their launching pad will be Massachusetts."
Samantha Dallaire, a spokeswoman for Senate President Therese Murray, told AP Murrary believes the law is "antiquated."
"Gay marriage" advocates cannot turn to the courts. In March 2006 the state's highest court upheld the law in a 6-1 vote. It was the same court that in 2003 issued its landmark ruling legalizing "gay marriage."
Rhode Island couples are allowed to "marry" under a Massachusetts judge's ruling from last September that said "gay marriage" is not expressly prohibited in the Ocean State. Despite the ruling, the licenses still are not recognized back in Rhode Island.
MASS. CONSERVATIVES PLAN NEXT MOVE -- Having suffered a serious setback in their political fight to ban "gay marriage," Massachusetts conservatives now are examining their options for the future. They could start from scratch, but they wouldn't be able to place a proposed marriage amendment on the ballot until 2012, at the earliest.
"We are not going away. We won't stop fighting until the citizens have had their say," a statement on the VoteOnMarriage.org website stated. It was signed by Mineau and by Chanel Prunier of VoteOnMarriage.org.
"There are too many children that are counting on us to continue the battle," the statement continued. "Our team is looking at our strategic options going forward. You will be hearing from us again soon. In the meantime, do not be discouraged, keep the faith. Our work will surely continue."
The organization began collecting signatures in 2005 and gathered 170,000, a record. That qualified it for legislative consideration, and the state legislature passed the amendment in January on the final day of the last session with 62 votes, significantly more than the 50 needed (50 is one-fourth of the legislature). But it had to pass in another session in order to make the ballot, and on June 14 it got only 45 votes. A key factor in the defeat were nine legislators who voted against it after voting for it the first time. Also, two new legislators who campaigned on "letting the people vote" voted against it. The other lost votes resulted from retirements, resignations and Election Day losses.
"These eleven Benedict Arnolds not only lied to the leaders of our movement, they lied to every citizen in this state," a VoteonMarriage.org statement read. "Right up until the day of the vote, each of these legislators reiterated their commitment to voting 'Yes' to give the people a right to voice their opinion on same-sex marriage. Unfortunately, the true character of these so-called 'public servants' became apparent once the final vote was recorded."

Three Lubbock ISD school cafeterias were perfect in their last health inspection.
Dupre Elementary School at 2008 Avenue, Hutchinson Junior High School at 3102 Canton Avenue and Roscoe Wilson Elementary School at 2807 25th Street each had zero critical violations, making them top performers.
The other cafeteria inspected, didn't do so well. Ramirez Elementary School at 702 Avenue T had two critical violations.
We contacted Aramark, which is the company that runs LISD's food services, and they released this comment: "Our top priority is to ensure that the food served at LISD is of the highest quality within the safest environment possible. We continuously train our managers and employees on proper techniques in food handling and food safety procedures. The violations that were found during the inspection were corrected on site."

Open just more than two months, owner Ricardo Garcia invited NewsChannel's 11 Food for Thought camera inside his kitchen to explain the violations and show his customers that their safety and satisfaction is his top priority.
"It's something that we're practicing more and more, even myself. I'm trying to make myself more cautious as we are going through this process," Garcia said.
"We were using this pitcher to get water to put into a mop bucket. It's a clean pitcher, it wasn't dirty. We grabbed it from right here, and we were pouring water, but she said that's improper use of the hand sink," Garcia said.
"I had a pan of pork, cooked pork, sitting in here and it didn't have a top on it, and i believe it did not have a label on it, which comes into the label as well," Garcia said.
"We wash our ladles and then we hang them. You can see that they are clean. We just overlooked it. No excuse, but that's probably what happen, Garcia said.
"It's a new business an I just don't want it to get a bad name off of some silly violations when they shouldn't have happened," Garcia said. "This should not have happen. You know I'm sorry, and it won't happen again. I can assure you that. Next time you see me, it'll be a top performer...guaranteed."
Garcia told us all violations have been corrected.

The Truth About Religion!
Religion is the worst thing that ever happened!
Religion is the worst thing that ever happened to this world. Tons and tons of books about the religions of the world have been printed. The figure is beyond count. Many religious people are totally blinded by the good deeds system. They have no concept of the doctrine of the total depravity of man (that all men are corrupt, evil, sinful and unable to please God in their own human efforts). They think of "total depravity" in terms of people who lie around in the gutter. Actually, those individuals who lie around in the gutters might be respectable compared to some religious people.
The sins of religious people are amongst the most awful sins of all. The sin of pride for example is fantastic. The sin of legalism is the system of trying to impress God with something you can do, rather than be impressed with what God has done through Jesus Christ.
Let's consider a religious person talked about in the Bible. His name was Nicodemus. He was a very well educated man. He was a Pharisee (religious leader). Nicodemus was a very proud, vain, legalistic and hypocritical man. He came to Jesus at night, for Nicodemus was a very busy man. No doubt, he hoped to impress Jesus with his flattery. He addressed Jesus as "Rabbi" (an official title of honor). To Nicodemus, Jesus was a teacher, nothing more. Though Nicodemus had a body and a soul, his spirit was dead. He had no ability to fellowship with God, because he was "spiritually dead". He had never been born spiritually.
If you are to be "born from above" or "born-again", you must accept Jesus Christ as your Savior. This is such a wonderful truth that is taught in the Bible. Many people, far beyond count, just don't believe upon the Son of God. They believe in a God; maybe a god of wood, of stone, of metal, of spirit, of knowledge, of power, of nature, etc., etc., etc.
Religion by the ton, of every sort, of every kind. Religion, religion and more religion. People have all kinds of ideas what God should be like. If they can't find a god that is already made for them, they will make a new god to their liking.
Religion is the worst thing that ever happened!
It is very difficult for some people to realize they are sinners, they feel they are very good people. Many don't believe in a god, of any kind. They do not believe that there is anything beyond the grave.
In short; many believe we are born, live and we die, the end!
However, so many questions about life are with us all the days of our life and they must be answered one way or another. In this life, a time comes when we must settle in our hearts whether or not a God does exist. Is there life after death? Is there a heaven? Is there a hell? What is the purpose of life? Does God really give us eternal life? Will God actually punish people in hell? Is God, if there is a God, telling me the truth? Look at the world today and the destruction sin causes! Will the wicked really be turned into hell? WE ALL HAVE TO ANSWER THESE QUESTIONS AND MANY MORE because they need to be answered. No person can escape having to decide the answer to these questions; no one, it's a part of life! You may decide you want nothing to do with God at all, but THEN THAT IS YOUR DECISION. See, you have to decide!
Many religions will offer you answers to these questions, but the answers are not found in religion. The answers are found in a person, the Lord Jesus Christ, God's only begotten Son!
Miracles are happening today, just as in the time of our Lord Jesus. You may have not thought about this before, but it takes a miracle to become a child of God. Salvation is a supernatural act of God in response to our child-like faith in Christ alone. When we reach that point in life where God has drawn us to make that decision to either accept or reject His Son Jesus Christ as our Savior from sin, a miracle will or will not take place; depending on what we do with Jesus. Whether we reject or accept the Son of God as our Savior is totally up to each of us. If we reject Christ, no miracle of the new birth takes place.
On the other hand; if we accept Christ as our Savior, admitting that we are sinners and that we do want Christ to come into our hearts, our sins will be forgiven immediately. The new birth takes place immediately...not partially over time, not in steps; but instantly the very second we accept Jesus as Savior. We then belong to God, we are adopted into His family. A miracle has taken place and according to the Scriptures, there is no power, no person, or anything in this universe that can separate us from the love of God; which is in Christ Jesus our Lord (Romans 8:35).
The question of accepting or rejecting Christ must be settled in your heart. Whether you are a church-goer, give lots of money to charities, and do all kinds of religious works, it really doesn't matter. What matters is—ARE YOU A BORN AGAIN CHILD OF GOD? No amount of religion or outward self-righteousness can help you on judgment day. Salvation is not found in a religion; but in a person, Jesus Christ. It's simple! You are a sinner in need of a Savior. Stop trying to save yourself and decide to rely upon Jesus. Only Jesus paid for your sins, so only He alone can save! From your heart, simply ask Jesus to forgive your sins and become your Savior. Decide to rely upon Him alone to save your soul, because of the precious blood that He shed for you (1st Peter 1:18,19).
Religion is the worst thing that ever happened!

News: Nas Finally Announces "Untitled" Follow-Up Title
Saturday, May 28, 2011 4:49PM
Rap veteran Nas has finally revealed the title of his long-awaited follow-up to 2008's Untitled album and first full-length project since last year's Distant Relatives joint LP alongside Damian Marley.
While brief with his words, Nasty Nas revealed the title via social networking site Twitter.
"My album title is- Life Is Good!!!," Nas tweeted Saturday (May 28). (Nas' Twitter)
In early May, Nas hinted at plans to recruit Wu-Tang Clan's Raekwon for the LP.
"It's about to be solo time," Nas told Tim Westwood when asked about his next album. "Solo time, it's gonna be crazy. I heard something that [Damian Marley's] working on, he's gonna kill them. I'm excited to get him. I got two [songs]. I'm just starting. I did the writing but it's like, I've been so busy going all over the place. It's like, hard, so when we get back after we're done in Europe, we good for a while. But our thing continues. So when I drop the solo, [Damian] drops the solo, we still got tour offers. Non-stop and it's hard to stop the tour...I'm dying and D, I know you're dying to do the solo stuff too...Shout-out to Raekwon. I seen him last night. We're talking about dong some stuff. I can't see why he won't be on my next album." (Tim Westwood TV)
Last fall, Nas said his current priority is working on the new solo LP.
"I record a lot of sh*t. I have recorded a lot of sh*t over the years, and the sh*t that I ain't put out on albums should be on the Lost Tapes," Nas said in an interview. "Because my album, my studio album, my new album is a priority for the label and of course me. To find the time to put out Lost Tapes and then my record, my real record, is what we're up against. It's all this material and trying to get it out...I got no release dates right now. Nothing to tell people about, just inner workings hopefully to get the sh*t out right and get it out soon -- I'm in the studio, taking it step by step. It's not ready yet. I'm taking it step by step because it's so important for me and myself. I'm in a huge fight with me, so it's important that I get this one right. I don't want to leave no stone unturned on anything I say on this sh*t." (The Boom Box)
Nas' Untitled album has reportedly reached gold status after debuting at No. 1 in July 2008.
The album debuted at number one on the Billboard 200 album charts selling 187,078 copies in the first week of release. By April 25, 2009, the album had sold 549,898 copies in the United States, and it has been certified gold in sales by the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA). The album also did moderately well in other countries, charting in Ireland, Canada, and the United Kingdom. (Wikipedia)

When I was a kid in the 1980s, I was under the impression that WVU was Syracuse's biggest rivalry because that's what I was told. Then the 1987 game happened, then the Marvin Graves brawl game happened, so it sort of made sense. But as it dawned on me over the years that WVU has eyes only for Pitt when it comes to "Big East rivals," it left me with the feeling that, well, we really didn't have a rival.
When I was a student, there was a ridiculous notion that Miami was somehow our rival, which was laughable for a number of reasons (they always killed us, there was no geography or history, and if you asked them to name their top 20 rivals, we probably wouldn't make that list). I understood HATING Miami, but a rivalry? No. Boston College? Well, sure, they're a bunch of douchebags, but no. Penn State? We always thought they were a rival, but when Paterno bagged out of anchoring the Big East, that went bye-bye. I actually always felt that Virginia Tech was our biggest "real" football rival.
The Hokies had come out of nowhere to be a pretty good rival when I was in college in the mid to late 1990s. We routinely exchanged thrilling victories over one another, we would upset them when they were higher ranked (and vice versa), we heavily recruited the same QB (Mike Vick), and there seemed to be some real animosity developing between the programs. The 1998 game where we beat them on the last second might be one of the best finishes to a game in the history of the conference, followed up by a year later when they returned the favor (post-McNabb) by destroying us 62-0 in Blacksburg. We then fell in the Dome the next year on a back-breaking Vick TD run, after Dwight Freeney had spent half the game (and only half due to injury) sacking Vick left and right. In the early 2000s, there was the post-Vick upset at Va Tech when they were ranked #4 in the country and we out Beamer-balled them by completely dominating on special teams (which was actually a LONG under-appreciated trait of all Paul Pasqualoni-coached teams). Then during Pasqualoni's disastrous 2002 season (the 4-8 year where we almost upset Auburn at Auburn), we actually DID upset Va Tech once again in the Dome.
But then, of course, Va Tech left for the ACC. That left us with a HUGE "hate" itch to scratch.
Enter Rutgers, our former whipping boy. We have always fished in the same recruiting waters with the Scarlet Knights, but never gave them a second thought because we absolutely owned that program (as did everybody, because Rutgers sucked so hard for so long). Then when our program went into decline, that started to change, as we started suffering embarrassing upset losses to pitiful Rutgers teams. When Gross knee-jerked fired Pasqualoni without having a good replacement lined up, Rutgers swooped in and snagged Ray Rice and Courtney Greene (among others), and prior to that, they had the Leonard brothers (two guys who, in years past, would have worn Orange and blue). Our fall from glory was their gain, and now we have a dogfight on our hands to reassert our dominance. Now, it's true that Rutgers lacks our tradition, but in the "what have you done for me lately" world, we as 'Cuse fans have to remember that our program has been nationally irrelevant for almost a decade.
The series between the two teams has never been a rivalry until recently, largely because we kicked the stuffing out of them for so long, and once we started sucking, they returned the favor. However, last Saturday's game sent a very clear shot across the bow of the Scarlet Knight football program. I don't think that because we throttled them that it's really a case of, "oh well, now we are back to dominating Rutgers." No. I think what it indicated, though, is that Rutgers is no longer going to dominate us, and that the most recent five year blip in our series history is just that - a blip.
Someone in another thread made a great point about them being so geographically similar to us that we are practically brothers. In this case, Rutgers is our pain-in-the-ass younger brother who has finally come into his own a little bit, able to bloody our nose once in a while, just as we are able to bloody theirs. When you throw in the fact that their coach comes off as smug and unlikable, it only helps matters along. Their fans hate us, and we can't stand the fact that they puff their chests out when they really - in our eyes - have accomplished nothing. Are they at our "level" in terms of what the programs accomplished in the 20th century? Of course not. But frankly, a lot of that is ancient history. I mean, hell, Army used to win national championships in football. That has absolutely nothing to do with today.
So to boil it down...we hate them, they hate us, and the campuses are within four hours of one another. Also, both "claim" to be the team of NYC, as other posters have pointed out. I mean, I understand the hatred of Rutgers and the unwillingness to acknowledge them as a rival, because we still sometimes make the mistake of not taking them seriously. They, in turn, can't stand when we remind them constantly that they are historically one of the worst bottom feeders of all time. In my opinion, that's what fuels a good rivalry. Seriously...how many of us thought to ourselves, "well, if we get one Big East win this year, I hope it's against Rutgers, because I can't stand that team."
Be honest....a lot of us felt that way. Or maybe it's just me, because I live in New Jersey :)

SAN DIEGO (CBS 8) - It's coming down to the wire for anyone who hasn't finished their holiday shopping. Stores are packed as people try to check those last few things off their lists.
For retailers, holiday sales are crucial. For consumers, many are out hunting for last-minute deals.
Analysts say a slowdown in spending the last few days could mean deep discounts Monday.
Market Research reports say consumer traffic over the weekend was in line with the same time a year ago, but shoppers seemed to be holding onto their wallets a little tighter.
The looming fiscal cliff is also forcing consumers to hesitate on their shopping not knowing if their taxes will be going up next year.
But shoppers can also expect big discounts as the days wind down to Christmas. Some experts say to expect deals up to 70 percent off and "buy one get one free" as retailers try to salvage a weaker than expected shopping season.

So I went and watched the Linsanity movie last Thursday at the San Francisco Asian+Asian American film festival (CAAMFEST). I was looking forward to it because the guys who made the documentary were interested in Lin while he was still at Harvard and started filming without knowing Linsanity was going to happen. I went with my fiance and two other couples representing a range of interest (one of my friends who came I don't think pays much attention to Lin or basketball in general). This is the third opening night CAAMFEST movie I've been to but the first time that practically half of the seats were roped off. They roped off the entire middle of the auditorium for VIPs (mostly people connected with the festival or filmmaking I think) which I thought was annoying and inappropriate.
The film uses game footage (from AAU days to the Linsanity run), various interviews, ESPN-type commentary, some footage from following Lin around, and an annoying amount of footage of Lin practicing by himself, often in slow motion without his shirt. The film more or less goes through his career up until the Mavericks game during the Linsanity run. It ends with a postscript that he was signed by the Rockets and shows the Rockets team coming out the player's tunnel. While going through his career, they hit on various topics like being overlooked because he was Asian, learning humility when he injured his leg in high school, the importance of religion, struggles to make it in the NBA, racism and discrimination, etc. ending with a big focus on the Linsanity run.
All in all, I found the film disappointing. It felt like a really long commercial, or a really long movie trailer. The production was slick but didn't go into much depth - it was numbing to watch the steady, rapid pacing and there was like this dramatic movie music throughout. At one point he talks about how much it sucked to feel like the Warriors signed him purely for marketing purposes - a proper documentary should get the audience to feel how painful that was for the subject, but it's just a short little voice over. That's how the whole film feels - very guarded. Even when Lin talks about feeling self-doubt, you don't really get a sense of what that was like.
You also get the sense that the film only reveals what Lin would want to - I'm not sure why this is. Maybe because the filmmakers are really deferential to Lin's wishes, or Lin's cousin oversaw editing, or the filmmakers couldn't get any more material than what Lin has already put out into the public. The main points in the movie will be familiar to most basketball fans and certainly to anyone who's been following Jeremy Lin. And some things get glossed over (like Melo/Knicks drama), partly due to time constraints probably but I'd guess also because Lin doesn't want to go into those things. Lin taped a "thank you for watching, it was great working with these guys" bit for the showing. But one of the filmmakers then said that Lin confessed that at one point he wanted to punch the filmmaker in the face for forcing him to do an interview while he was really struggling. THAT's the side of someone that makes a good documentary - I want to see more of that! Also, for folks who are not religious, the pro-Christianity stuff might get a bit repetitive.
There's definitely some cool stuff in the movie. Seeing athletes as toddlers and kids is always fun, as is seeing Lin play in middle school. There's a bit of candid 'follow-him-around' footage where you realize how young he really is (as you watch him buy a cheesy little rock waterfall from Target). There's lots of cute/funny moments as well (Lin talking about his favorite cartoons, singing karaoke). And probably the most candid scene is when he talks about hearing Kobe say he didn't know who Lin was right before his 38-point Lakers game. Lin knew a reporter would ask after the game, "Do you think Kobe knows who you are now?" Lin thought about replying, "Who's Kobe?" (but then thought, what would Jesus do? And didn't). Also there was a game against the Wizards where John Wall dunked on Lin so he looked for an opportunity to dunk back on Wall, and got the opportunity a few plays later. Unfortunately, these kinds of unguarded moments didn't make it much into the film.
All in all, I'm not sure who would really enjoy this film. I'd guess a lot of devout Christians will enjoy it. Extremely casual fans of basketball may enjoy it (I could tell some people around me hadn't seen the Toronto buzzer-beater before). Basketball fans who don't know much about Lin might like it. For everyone else though, it's probably something to play in the background while you're doing something else. Then again, I watch a lot of movies so maybe my standards are too high.
And in case you're wondering, they're still working on the distribution deal. Anyone else seen it? What did you think of it?

We tried mysql replication (master-slave mode) and we could share how to handle:
When the slave shutdown abnormally, there are few errors would be occurred:
Check the error using "show slave status\G"
Error1: The master DB keep inserting data but the slave DB is down
Error 'Duplicate entry '123′ for key 'PRIMARY" on query. Default database: 'DB'. Query: 'insert into TABLE (name) values ('1111111′)'
Step1: could be fixed by adding a line to /etc/my.cnf
slave-skip-errors = 1062
Step2: restart the database
# /etc/init.d/mysqld restart
p.s. Only could skip duplicate entry, but may have data lost (assume your slave is readonly, it would be safe)
Error2: Table in slave database is corrupted
Error 'Incorrect key file for table './DB/TABLE.MYI'; try to repair it' on query. Default database: 'DB'. Query: 'insert into TABLE(c1,c2) values (UUID(),'b')'
# repair table TABLE;
# show slave status\G;
Error3: The log file is corrupted
Last_SQL_Error: Relay log read failure: Could not parse relay log event entry.
The possible reasons are: the master's binary log is corrupted (you can check this by running 'mysqlbinlog' on the binary log), the slave's relay log is corrupted (you can check this by running 'mysqlbinlog' on the relay log), a network problem, or a bug in the master's or slave's MySQL code.
Step1: run "show slave status\G"
Find the line below:
Relay_Master_Log_File: binlog.000004
Exec_Master_Log_Pos: 13823
Step2: reset the log position and rerun the slave
# stop slave;
# change master to master_log_file='binlog.000004', master_log_pos=13823

NASHVILLE (AP) - Nashville police have arrested a man in the stabbing deaths of three family members in what police are saying were drug-related killings.
In a news conference held Friday, police spokesman Don Aaron said 39-year-old Lorenzo Kelvin Jenkins was charged with the murders of 26-year-old Wendy Sullivan, her father 36-year-old Patrick Sullivan and her mother 48-year-old Deborah Sullivan.
WSMV-TV reports that police said the Sullivans were selling prescription pills and marijuana from their home. They were found dead in the home on Oct. 22.
The Tennessee Bureau of Investigation used a DNA sample to link Jenkins to the scene. He was arrested Tuesday in Sumner County on aggravated burglary and theft charges.
Jenkins received a 6-year suspended sentence earlier this year for convictions on aggravated burglary and felony theft charges.

The Different Kinds of Golf Balls
It is said that there are around 26 million golfers in the world, and more people are becoming inclined to try the sport. Nowadays, it is not only high-profile businessmen or middle-aged individuals who choose to play golf. There are now quite a number of kids and women who have turned into golf enthusiasts. Of course, the game of golf won't be possible without the use of golf balls. Those who don't know much about golf balls may be surprised to find out that there are many kinds of golf balls and that these golf balls may actually affect their game.
One-piece Golf Balls
Beginners might find it easier to play with one-piece golf balls rather than two-piece or three-piece golf balls. One-piece golf balls are typically used in driving ranges and is rarely used as playing balls. These golf balls have dimples molded in and are made up of Surlyn. The advantages of buying these golf balls is that they are inexpensive and durable. However, since it has lower compression, it won't go a very long distance when hit.
Two-piece Golf Balls
Maximum distance and durability: two reasons why many golfers prefer using two-piece golf balls. Two-piece golf balls are made with a single core that is usually resin or high-energy acrylate. This core is then covered with a cut-proof, tough blended material which enables two-piece balls to traverse longer distances than other balls.
Three-piece Golf Balls
Three-piece golf balls, also called wound balls, have cores which are either liquid or solid rubber. The core is then covered with lots of yards of elastic windings, which are then enclosed in Surlyn or balata. Three-piece balls spin more and are softer, which gives skillful golfers more control over the flight of their balls when hit. Three-piece balls are more controllable than two-piece balls, and it takes a longer time for manufacturers to make them.
Recycled Golf Balls
Recycled golf balls, also called used golf balls, reclaimed golf balls, discount golf balls or experienced golf balls, are also increasing in number nowadays. These golf balls will help you save money because they are typically sold at 60 to 80 per cent less than the retail price. These golf balls are graded according to their previous usage. Mint-quality recycled golf balls, for example, are those which have been hit only once. These balls are practically new and still have that glossy shine and consistent color. Other kinds of recycled golf balls are grade-A used golf balls, grade-B golf balls and grade-C golf balls.
Logo Balls and Custom Golf Balls
Golf balls are no longer used just for the game of golf. There are now many golf balls which feature logos of different companies. These golf balls, also called logo balls, are great marketing tools. If you would like to spread word about your business, putting your company's name on a golf ball may be one of the ways in which you can do it. Many people can pick up these golf balls and see the logo on it. Nowadays, there are also some individuals who choose to have their golf balls customized. You can put your name on a golf ball or have it imprinted with a favorite symbol or figure. This way, you'll easily know that the golf ball is yours when you find it on the golf course.
You can find discounts on golf balls mentioned above tight here on this site.

#32 Alex Witcpalek
Class: RS Junior Ht/Wt: 5-11/205 Position: Linebacker Hometown: Oswego, Illinois
Louisville's Take: (No Notes Provided)
Thoughts: Many Card's fans may not be all too familiar with Alex, but I think over the course of the season he will be someone you want to continually cheer for, a real fan favorite if you will. Is he in the Brad Gianiny category? Not quite…but he has some potential. Alex is a walk-on who earned his way onto the roster out of pure determination and damn near annoyance. I found his story very interesting and he was nice enough to provide the whole thing in written form…
He's listed as a linebacker, but I believe he was seeing action at safety in the spring game. While he may not be a Rudy clone (P.S. I hate Notre Dame and Rudy), his small size and big heart hopefully translates well onto the field this year.
Potential Nicknames: "A-Wit"
#32 Senorise Perry
Class: Junior Ht/Wt: 6-0/203 Position: Running back Hometown: Summerville, Ga
Louisville's Take: Valuable special teams player ... moved to running back in the spring and showed an ability to be productive ... one of the fastest players on the squad... showed a good burst through the hole... continues to develop as he learns the position.
Thoughts: Speedy Senorise could be a big part of the offense and special teams this year. I really like this guy (I'm thinking about offering him a buddy band) and so do the coaches. Last year Senorise appeared in all 13 games as a sophomore. While he was more of a weapon on special teams (26.2 yds per return) last year including three 50yd+ returns, a blocked punt and a few solo tackles, I see Senorise lined up more behind Mr. Bridgewater this season. He'll keep his special teams position, Coach Carter will make sure of that, but Watson will enjoy mixing it up with some speed after Brown and Co. run over a few defenders. I'm not sure Charlie will like seeing one of his running backs flying down the field as a gunner on punts, so that spot could be available, but after finishing first in the nation in punt return defense last year I say keep the "if it aint' broke.." mentality. The touchdown in Morgantown was nice (outside speed), but his touchdown in the Spring game (power through the middle) was even more impressive. Easily one of my top five favorite Cardinals this year, I hope everyone else falls in love with Senorise as well.
Potential Nicknames: "Señor", "Speedy"
#32 Gerald Christian
Class: RS Sophomore Ht/Wt: 6-3/260 Position: Tight End Hometown: Palm Beach Gardens, Fla
Louisville's Take: Transfer from the University of Florida... saw action in eight games as a Gator... enrolled at UF in January of 2010...dressed in all 13 of Florida's games...
Thoughts: I'm excited about Mr. Christian over the next two years. Both coming out of Dwyer High School, Christian joins Robert Clark as a transfer from Florida. While neither is eligible this year, Gerald has a year to learn the system, teach and learn from Nate Nord, and ultimately become a better player. Coming out of high school, Gerald was the #2 ranked TE in the country, with good size, hands and agility. While not seeing action for the Gators as a freshman, Gerald grabbed four catches for 72 yards and a touchdown in 7 games last year. I like Gerald to step up and potentially grab the starting role next year after Nord graduates. I'm sure Hunter Bowles, Hubbell and Chris White might have something to say about that, but the competition should be fun.
Potential Nicknames:"Brickhouse", "G-Chrisp"

PIERRE, S.D. (AP) - The South Dakota Senate has refused to reconsider a measure that would have given South Dakota the option to suspend the licenses of drivers who repeatedly speed.
The Senate Transportation Committee killed the bill last Wednesday, but Republican Sen. Craig Tieszen on Monday tried to force the bill to the full Senate floor. Tieszen's motion received 11 of the 12 needed votes.
Motorists can lose their licenses if they accumulate too many points for moving violations, including drunken driving, reckless driving and running a stop sign. But no points are assessed for speeding.

PARIS - Serena Williams spent the French Open fortnight showing off her French.
Now she can can parler francais while holding the French Open trophy.
Top-seeded Williams beat no. 2 Maria Sharapova 6-4, 6-4 to secure her second French Open title, 11 years to the day after she beat her older sister Venus to win her first in 2002.
"Eleven years," Williams said in French during the trophy ceremony. "I think it's unbelievable. Now I have 16 Grand Slam titles. It's difficult for me to speak because I'm so excited."
The national anthem of the USA, played for the winner, was heard for the first time for a singles champ at Roland Garros since 2002, Williams' last title here.
A year after crashing out of the French Open's opening round for the first time in her career, Williams returned to play one of her best wire-to-wire tournaments.
She dropped just 29 games, matching her best Grand Slam effort (she also dropped 29 games on her way to the 2002 U.S. Open title).
With 16 Grand Slam titles, the 31-year-old American trails Chris Evert and Martina Navratilova by two majors for sixth place all time.
Fist pumping and screaming "C'mon!" almost from the get-go, Sharapova survived a 0-40 deficit in the opening game and then broke Williams for 2-0.
But the 26-year-old failed to convert two game points on her serve the next game, and Williams - invoking some vocal histrionics and menacing fist pumps of her own - broke back.
Sharapova didn't fade, breaking Williams again for 4-4, but the American had too much firepower. Her baseline drives were deeper. Her serves were more accurate. Her defense was better.
"I played a great tournament, and I ran into a really tough champion today," Sharapova said.
Williams had 10 aces, including three in the final game, the last and biggest one (123 mph) came on match point. Her celebration at the end looked much like a first-time-major champion: Sinking to her knees, burying her face in the clay, then her hands, and flashing big, bright, wide smiles throughout the trophy ceremony.
Since her first-round exit here a year ago, Williams has captured three of the last four majors and a gold medal at the London Olympics.
Williams, who charmed crowds with her on-court interviews in the native tongue - something she said she had prepared for 12 months ago - eclipsed seven-time champion Evert as oldest Roland Garros winner in the Open era (31 years, 256 days).
"I love Paris," Williams said. "I spend a lot of time here. I live here. I practice here. I think I am a Parisian."
Williams also congratulated Sharapova during the ceremony.
"She played a beautiful final," Williams said in French. "She's a great champion. I hope to be with her again next year."
"Merci beaucoup," Sharapova responded with a laugh.
Sharapova, the defending French Open champion, dropped to 2-14 vs. Williams, including 13 in a row and four defeats this season.
Williams is 16-4 in Grand Slam finals. Sharapova, the only other active player to complete a career Grand Slam, fell to 4-4.
Williams improved to 43-2 this year, and is on a career-best 31-match winning streak. She wrapped up the clay season unbeaten, including 23-0.
Now comes the switch to grass, and she'll be a heavy favorite to win Wimbledon for the sixth time.

A study published this week suggests that there may be "tens of billions" of planets in the Milky Way galaxy that fall within what scientists call "the Goldilocks zone," where the conditions for spawning life are thought to exist.
Working with a relatively new technology called the HARPS spectrograph, located at the La Silla Observatory in Chile, scientists said that a survey of red dwarf stars in the Milky Way found that approximately 40 percent had planets orbiting within the Goldilocks zone. They also estimate there are about 160 billion red dwarf stars in our galaxy.
So far, just nine planets within this zone have actually been detected, but extrapolations from the survey indicate that planets falling under this criteria may be exceedingly common throughout the galaxy. And about 100 are within earth's cosmic neighborhood, they said.
"Now that we know that there are many super-Earths around nearby red dwarfs, we need to identify more of them using both HARPS and future instruments," Xavier Delfosse, a researcher with the Observatoire des Sciences de l'Univers de Grenoble in France, told Space.com editor Clara Moskowitz. "Some of these planets are expected to pass in front of their parent star as they orbit — this will open up the exciting possibility of studying the planet's atmosphere and searching for signs of life."

Our women's basketball team put up a valiant effort last night against the Duke Blue Devils. At least for the first 30 minutes. In the first half, we showed that no one should underestimate us, and that we can be quick, feisty, and drain big shots. As the second half moved along, we started to unravel, rushing shots, allowing a lot of runouts, getting outrebounded, and allowing them to take almost whatever shot they wanted. It might seem to be bad that we lost by 21 points. But this Duke team is IMO the only team that will seriously challenge Uconn for the national championship, and this game was on their court. Most teams lose by 30-50 points against this year's Duke team. With all 9 of their McDonalds All-Americans.
We learned a lot from this game and gained some confidence, as well as making a list of things to work on. We beat the unranked teams we were supposed to beat, and lost to the number 6 (Stanford) and number 2 teams in the country. Play that last 10 minutes like the first 30, and we can play with anybody. But even as it stands now, no team in the Big Ten is in the same league with Stanford and Duke. Therefore we should be able to hang with any Big Ten opponent. Not to say we will go undefeated on the road in conference. That is not realistic. But the three teams picked ahead of us, Penn State, Nebraska, and Michigan State have all shown their vulnerabilities so far in non-conference play.
I still expect us to finish in the top 4 places in the conference standings, win or at least play in the championship of the Big Ten tournament, and make the NCAA tournament with a seed in the 3-6 range. Most likely 4 or 5. Hopefully we won't fall flat and lose any more non-conference games but there is no assurance of that. At Kansas, at Green Bay, and IPFW and Bowling Green at home will all challenge us. We are pretty well set with guards, and our post players are getting valuable game experience. Yes we could use one or two more taller post players, but it is what it is. Our coaches are coming up with good game plans and in-game and halftime adjustments, and for the most part, our players are executing as instructed. Houser and Moses still are our two senior leaders that impact the games the most. If Houser can let Wilson or Morrissette run the point, and push the pace off of the ball, we seem to be better off. While it is hard not to appreciate KK's ability to push the pace, she can still get ahead of herself, especially when playing the 1 position. As for Moses, she sprained her ankle against Duke and we sure hope this isn't serious. We don't know if that threw off her shot as she had several jumpers all but fall in the basket before bouncing out last night. We definitely need her shooting ability and overall presence. Others on the team continue to improve and step up in game situations.
It is going to continue to be a fast and fun year of basketball.

A brilliant man. Totally unique as an individual and a teacher. True, some will not like him, but many will be influenced for life from his sometimes profound lectures. You do have to know how to deal with him if you want to be more than a spectator in the class.
Piano Lit
No Comments
The best lecturer. When he's in the mood he's inspiring and you learn a great deal of piano literature. When he's not in the mood you watch his piano video. He's brilliant, but unpredictable, and yes, manipulative. But if he feels a student is exceptionally talented, he is incredibly supportive.
No Comments
He has a good radio show....Relections from the Keyboard.....No??
He has no talent, yet likes to criticize others. He is sarcastic, often devious

Bob Buck served in the Air Force, but he committed himself to the Mighty Eighth Air Force when he heard the museum was looking for volunteers.
"I came down to a meeting on a Saturday," said Buck, who has volunteered at the museum for nine years. "I read about 12 books about the Eighth Air Force to get up to date."
Now Buck keeps museum visitors up to date as an on-call tour guide, sharing the history he had researched.
Once at the museum, Buck discovered the Mighty Eighth Birthplace Chapter and is now that chapter's president, planning its meetings, writing its newsletter and preserving its legacy.
"We meet monthly, have dinner here at the museum and we have a speaker," said Buck. "I tell you what, with questions and answers, we get into some very, very interesting discussions. The Eighth Air Force has chapters around the country, and unfortunately they're decreasing because of the age of the members and so forth."
The Hilton Head Island resident also plays golf, gardens and rides a bike every day.
However, his passion for the Mighty Eighth has taken over most of his time.
"This is unique because of the history of this place, the history of the Eighth Air Force and of course, the second World War,'' says Buck. "It's very enjoyable to me. I really enjoy doing it. I just hope we can continue to preserve what these men did, not only for our country but for our freedom and so forth.''

The new pedestrian bridge next the Courtney Campbell Causeway is off-limits for fishing.
The Department of Transportation banned fishing after cyclists complained about the mess.
"We found fish hooks, broken bottles, bloody fish out there," said Kris Carson with the Florida Department of Transportation.
Allison Moore came to the new Courtney Campbell bridge, looking forward to casting her line.
"It is a little frustrating considering how long of a wait it was for them to build it, and now they're like, 'oh wait, hey you can't fish there,' " she said.
She and her friends had to settle for a spot far away after running into the "No Fishing" signs.
"You can look over there and watch all those joggers and stuff just standing up there and chit chat. They've be taking up as much space as we would fishing," she said.
After being banished from the bridge, Larry Smith found his own spot and has his own gripes.
"We're not the nuisance. It's the bicyclists going 30 mph, trying to run everybody down," he said.
Bikers are peddling another view.
"The last thing you want to think about is something that's going to take you away from your freedom of clearing your mind," said Silvia Robinson.
Fishing is how Larry clears his mind. Now, he wonders about his own freedom.
"We love the bay, so the fisher people should get a chance to fish too," he said.
While everyone has their own opinion, the DOT said banning fishing was best for everyone's safety.
"We have too many bicyclists and pedestrian fatalities. We want to change those numbers and this is a step in a direction that is positive," Carson said.
For now, Alison and her friends will keep fishing here, but they still have their eye up on the bridge -- and the prize below.
"Under the bridges like that, they have huge fishes that swim through," she said.

More formally known as Defense Directive 1304.26, it was intended as a compromise, one that prevented questioning military recruits about their sexual preferences. It has since been used by the military as a license to conduct homophobic witch hunts, resulting in unprecedented numbers of career soldiers, most with medals for distinguished service, being discharged when their sexual preferences were noted.
Out Of The Closet And On To The Battlefield
But before launching into coverage of current controversies about homosexuals in the US military, it provides a bit of history about gays in the armed forces throughout history.
Filmmakers Fenton Baily and Randy Barbuto smartly open The Strange History of Don't Ask Don't Tell by introducing prominent military leaders of yore -- the warriors of ancient Sparta, Alexander the Great and American Revolutionary War hero Lieutenant General Frederick Von Stuben, among others -- who were homosexual.
This impressive list of openly gay military leaders leaves no doubt that homosexuals can serve effectively and honorably in the military.
With that in mind, we meet numerous gays and lesbians who are serving in today's military - with great heroism and honor - but who must constantly lie about their true identities, hide their homosexuality and their love relationships in order to serve, risking their lives, and perhaps dying, for our country. To protect their identities, they're filmed in shadow, or from behind, or showing just one ear, or their hands, or their boot-clad feet. They're still vulnerable to the DADT policy: if they say they're homosexuals, their military careers will be terminated.
However, the film also follows the high profile stories of three high-ranking service members -- heroes, all -- who were discharged for homosexuality, protested publicly and challenged DADT in court and on Capital Hill.
Fighting For Repeal and Relief
The film follows the complex politicking - pro and con, including coverage of John McCain's obstructionism - that resulted, ultimately, in enactment of new legislation, with President Barak Obama signing it on Dec. 22, 2010.
The non-discriminatory policy towards gay and lesbians in the armed forces is slated to take effect on Sept. 20, 2011, the day The Strange History of Don't Ask Don't Tell is first broadcast on HBO.
Whether implementation will occur as scheduled remains to be seen. Like many documentaries, The Strange History of Don't Ask Don't Tell comes to a conclusion, but the real life story - and struggle - continues. It's important to track it.
