It's getting to the point in the anticipation of the Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival lineup that anything seems plausible, well, except maybe a reunion of The Smiths.
That being said, I have some more predictions/wish list/rumors/ponderings from more Coachella 2013 fans who have contacted me. Thanks again to everyone sending them my way. Also, the folks here have put together a contest to win a gift card to a sporting goods store to pick up camping gear for your Coachella camp site. If you enter your 2013 headliner picks in the form, you're entered. If you want more predictions and wish lists, I tag all of my Coachella prediction posts Coachellaology.
You can see everything I've blogged about from the rumor mill for Coachella 2013 at the bottom of this entry.
Deer Tick
Jolie Perkins sent me an email today suggesting Deer Tick, who have a date in Phoenix in late March.
If Deer Tick goes, this opens up a few others, with that chameleon of a front man, John McCauley. Diamond Rugs would be a shoo-in, if Deer Tick is there. I checked out Consequence of Sound's list of predictions and they list Dawes as logical band for the lineup (despite having been there last year). Delta Spirit shows nothing on their tour schedule after the end of January. I would be surprised if they, as a band, make it to the festival, but I wouldn't be too surprised to see them. I would think it more likely to see lead Matthew Vasqez go to the festival and make Middle Brother (McCauley, Vasquez and Dawes's Goldsmith) a very real reality!
Excellent points from Jolie. I wouldn't be surprised to see any of those acts, except for Dawes. They are touring with Dr. Dog, who appear to have dates open for Coachella and happen to be in our area of the country out here around the April 12-14 and April 19-21 festival weekends.
However, I think her Middle Brother prediction could be spot on. FYI, Dawes was at Coachella 2012, Deer Tick was last at Coachella in 2010 and Delta Spirit played in 2011.
Deftones and Geographer
Thomas White from Boston has been to Coachella three times. He's picking Geographer and Deftones.
I vote Geographer for Coachella 2013 and Deftones to make their debut. Deftones live in Cali and new album and tour UK Feb. then US March April nothing (Coachella)
Solid points from Thomas, too. Deftones' tour mysteriously stops in Texas at the end of March and new material are both strong signs. The band has played Goldenvoice venues before, too, including the Pomona Fox.
I don't know as much about Geographer, but they have a sold-out show at The Echo in L.A. on Feb. 1. That buzz is big, but that date might be too close to the festival.
Atoms for Peace
My colleague in sports, Eric-Paul Johnson, is also a Coachella vet. He Tweeted that we'll be seeing Atoms for Peace with Thom Yorke and Flea.
I predict Atoms For Peace – Yorke & Flea together will be exciting, and their album is out 2/25.
Good points–Yorke's solo stint at Coachella in 2010 became Atoms for Peace and Flea was there. After Radiohead's headlining spot last year, I wouldn't be surprised to see Yorke and friends play the Empire Polo Club again in 2013.
Justin Timberlake
Mike Weisberg sent me a Tweet this morning inquiring about Justin Timberlake.
@vanessafranko: #Rumor: since lineups MIGHT be announced monday and justin timberlake's single/tour dates on monday> JT headlines Coachella?
He elaborated a little bit more this afternoon.
@vanessafranko: I think it's an unlikely circumstance. I've seen him live once-After future sex love sound dropped. Dude's unreal live.
First off, was I the only one who had "Blair Witch Project" flashbacks while watching JT's big countdown video the other day? Now, I think Timberlake could bring some big guests with him (no, not an NSync reunion, but he's rumored to be working with Jay-Z and Beyonce), but is he too mainstream for Coachella?
I wasn't there in 2006 when Madonna performed in the Sahara Tent (my first Coachella was 2007), was she beloved as a pop idol or did the Coachella crowd not love it?
I don't think it's likely, but Timberlake is the kind of bold festival-changing artist I think Coachella might welcome, just to continually push the envelope and the boundaries of what Coachella is.
So what do you think of these predictions? Do you think Timberlake is a real possibility? Will Thom Yorke trutn to Indio? Let me know in the comments below.
Don't forget to enter the drawing for a gift card for camping gear, either. All you have to do is fill out the form and enter your Coachella 2013 headliner picks, you don't even have to be right to win.

5 Types of Literary Conflict
Created By:Michael Stencil
Title/Role:Media Specialist
Organization/School Name:East Middle School
Grade Level:8
Type of Lesson:Stand-alone lesson
Type of Schedule:Flexible
Collaboration Continuum:Moderate
Content Area:Language Arts
Content Topic:Conflict in Literature
Scenario:The SL should meet with the Reading/Language Arts (RLA) teachers to determine when this lesson will take place throughout the year. In the literature unit, RLA teachers will teach a lesson introducing the five types of conflict to the students before this lesson takes place. This lesson allows the students to use their prior knowledge and their previewing skills to identify the conflict of many different books. The curricular objectives state that students should be able to identify internal and external types of conflict seen in literature. This lesson will support and extend the learning that took place in the classroom. Following the lesson, teachers may want to create other opportunities for the SL to support other elements in literature.
Overview:Students will identify the five different types of conflict shown in literature through an examination of books. Books will be grouped according to their specific type of conflict, but unlabeled so students will have to use their previous knowledge and previewing skills to identify the type of each group. Essential Question: What are the five basic internal/external conflicts that are found within literature?
Final Product:In a group, students will complete a SL-created handout identifying the conflict type of the literary books found at each station.
Library Lesson:Students will work in a group to draw conclusions based on their prior knowledge and previewing strategies.
Estimated Lesson Time:45 minutes
Have you taught this lesson before:Yes
Strategies for differentiation:Different books could be chosen for students with lower reading skills or even higher reading skills. These books have a variety of levels, but some differentiation could be necessary to help everyone be successful.

The Miami Heat guard reportedly welcomed a baby boy with a mystery woman while he was on a break from his now-fiancée, actress Gabrielle Union. The couple have worked through the unexpected news, and are still excited to get married.
Dwyane Wade reportedly fathered a child with another woman he has known "for years" while he was on a break from his now-fiancée, Gabrielle Union. The pair just announced their engagement on Dec. 20, and Gabrielle is reportedly not letting the baby affect her desire to marry Dwyane.
Dwyane Wade Fathers Child With Mystery Ex Before Gabrielle Union Engagement
Dwyane, 31, and Gabrielle, 41, "have worked through the issue privately as a couple," when they learned Dwyane fathered a child with another woman, a source told Entertainment Tonight. Gabrielle is said to have known about the child before accepting Dwyane's marriage proposal and is still eager to get married.
Dwyane visited his youngest baby boy recently, and intends to be part of his life, the source told ET. Dwyane has known the mother of his youngest son "for many years," according to the source.
Gabrielle and Dwyane have been dating since 2009 and though they have not set an official wedding date, they are projecting Sept. 2014 as a likely possibility!
Dwyane Wade's Family
Dwyane has full custody of his two other sons, Zion and Zaire. He had a very heated custody battle with his ex-wife Siohvaughn Funches, before ultimately being granted custody of the boys. Dwyane and is also raising his nephew, Dahveon Morris. "Wade has never taken his fatherhood responsibility lightly and has no intention to do so now," ET Online reported.
HollywoodLife.com reached out to Dwyane and Gabrielle's reps for comment.
What do YOU think, HollyMoms? Are you surprised that Gabrielle is understanding of Dwyane's child?

Hi every one! I think it was messy from the start.
Quite frankly, I'm disappointed in her behavior because
she knew from the start Dwayne was married.
Therefore, she continued to date him with out a
conscious thought of immorality. A selfish gesture
I would never want to hurt anyone. It must have been painful
for Dwayne's ex-wife. On the other hand, Gabrielle deserves
the treatment she allows from Dwayne. Just maybe Gabrielle
and Dwayne is getting married for her to help him get cusstody
of the New Little Newborn. Like the movies, I'm sure she
is going to "star" in that. "May the Lord Bless their Union."

Gabrielle Union is home-wrecker. She was sleeping the married Dwyane Wade when he was with his sons mother. She is a heartless woman that does not believe in sisterhood. Gabrielle is about the dollar. Just think about. She makes low budgets movies. She do not make Dwyane Wade money. None of them are her children. Wade first 2 with his ex-wife, his so called nephew and his new baby. Wade money covers everything, including a babysitter. That is why it is so easy for Gabrielle Union to support Wade.

WOW… Can someone say CONDOMS????? Why would she accept him back? Does she not feel she deserves someone trustworthy? He cheated on his ex wife with her and now he cheats on her and they are not even married yet. Well, when they get married and he cheats on her down the road I sure hope she gets a big chunk of his money. At least she is going into the marriage with her eyes wide open! No surprises for her. All this time they have been together and he proposes NOW! Really? You gotta wonder how sincere he is to wait for the sh!t to hit the fan before he proposes. She should of said NO and kept it moving. Sad for her that she doesn't think she deserve better than him a cheater, liar and snake. SAD!

Wow just found out that the baby mama is one Lamar's mistresses. Wow,when will women stop being objects,breaking homes and destroying but who was gaby herself. Was once a home wrecker! This whole story is messy. Men need learn to stick to one woman or have nothing at all. Why will some women not just find work and do than sleeping their way into men's pocket. I dont even respect men that sleep with multiply women. Trash+trash=TRASH!

Hate whores

Duh… Any of us surprise. That guy is a douche. They broke up because he cheated on her but then she should not cry. That's what he did with her to get rid of his wife. The guy is just disrespectful to women. A woman expecting a baby for him and he chose to give another woman a ring. That douche is a user and don't know when to treat people kind. His mother is the one I wonder what she has to say with all her christain belief. He doesn't even want his ex wife to see her children? Who does that? Gaby is in her forties with no children,if he really love her,she should be the one having the child not another woman. she should not live her age behind and act like a 12 year old or she would have herself to blame soon. He is younger than her. One thing I know is,no amount of money,big ring can buy love. And wade and gaby ain't lebron and savannah.
Posted at 6:37 PM on December 30, 2013
I knew they weren't on break. That is something Gabby came up with so that she didn't look pathetic when this information came out. Now I wonder if her will play father of the year with this child and take it from the mother so that he doesn't have to pay child support like he did his ex-wife.
Posted at 4:49 PM on December 30, 2013
Gabrielle was involved with Dwyane when he was still married and living with his ex wife. The old saying goes the same way you get them the same way you will lose them. He cheated with her of course he will cheat on her. But everyone makes mistake no one is perfect. I hope they get the counseling they need before they get married. But with all that being said I still wish them the best.

No details but it sounds like he would like a fresh start...
He has been a gentleman his entire career and the NYG will miss his quiet competent leadership. The young guys could sure use him as a role model.
I wish him well if it does not work out in NY as he deserves what ever favorable deal he can get.

In the midst of the Dallas Film Society's International Film Festival in April, Southern Methodist University hosted the 38th African Literature Association Conference that feted celebrated international film director Jean Pierre Bekolo. Inspired by Spike Lee, Bekolo says Lee "gave me the vision that I could do this thing, that I could film from the perspective of Africa."

The past 12 months were very intense on the African continent. Some important elections stirred up a whole lot of interests. Shared zones of influence are being renegotiated between the old powers of the world, the Western powers, and the new power, China.

"Do not mistreat or oppress foreigners, for you were once foreigners in Egypt."
This quote from the old testament is often overlooked by those who use the Bible to back up their political beliefs, yet despise any influx of foreigners of any kind. Now at the time this was written, the Israelities had recently been led out of Egypt, were they were not only foreigners, but they were slaves as well. For the Israelities to mistreat foreigners within their own lands would be greatly hypocritical, and hypocrisy is something that God doesn't look kindly upon.
Now we obviously don't live in Biblical times, but this can still be applied to modern politics and ethics, namely in the United States of America. The United States was built and made great by foreigners. Many of the first citizens were of British decent, and as years went on, people started coming to America from all over the world. And with each new arrival, they always met resentment here in the Land of Opportunity. Despite the fact that the ancestors of the resentors had arrived in the United States 2 or more generations ago.
Though it is true that unskilled laborers have flooded into the country illegally and legally, the skilled laborers, which are people we want, have a very difficult time getting into the United States as a citizen, and as such, they return home and become competitors to American businesses instead of a part of it.

Well, I'm lucky enough to work in an area that has a lot of industrial buildings and most of them are outdated which equals really dreadful paint jobs from the 70s. Today, I happened to be standing in the parking lot of a building with a really cool (but random) blue stripe around it. It was some kind of cabinetry company. I'm imagining they build bathroom cabinets, kitchen cabinets, storage cabinets, shrimp cabinets. lol Can you tell I watched Forrest Gump one too many times?

Here is a pretty good article about the progress of Corey Wilson and Travis Wilson. I personally did not know that Travis was with the Dallas Cowboys until I read this.
The Wilson brothers are from the Dallas area and it has been a great comfort to their family to have Travis nearby.
This article makes me proud to be a Sooner when I hear how much time Bob Stoops and the other players have supported Corey and his family.
Here's wishing Corey and Travis best wishes.

Marlins center fielder/second baseman Emilio Bonifacio has had a rough year. He's been on the disabled list two different times with thumb injuries, and now has been out since mid-August with a knee problem.
With the Marlins far out of contention, Bonifacio has decided to call it a year:
Emilio Bonifacio said he won't play anymore this yr. Had hoped to play final weeks but is shutting it down to get healthy for '13 #Marlins— joe capozzi (@joecapMARLINS) September 4, 2012
Bonifacio played just 64 games this season, but got enough playing time for 30 stolen bases, which, even with that limited number of games, ranks fifth in the National League. Three of the four players ahead of him in that category have at least twice as many games played. Bonifacio hit .258/.330/.316 for an OPS+ of 77, so no matter who replaces him for the rest of the year, the Marlins will probably get better offensive production.

As a concept that is useful for building effective courses, backward design is as simple as it sounds. The main principle of this method of design is to begin your conceptualization of the course by thinking about the kinds of learning you hope students will achieve at the end of the course. Once you have thought broadly about this, you can move to constructing your specific learning outcomes, and–from there–to designing assignments and activities. Finally, this approach allows you to them choose the best course materials (textbooks, etc.) that will help you meet these goals. This approach puts the spotlight directly on student learning and, in doing so, maximizes the efficacy of your course. Backward design can also be very useful for developing or redesigning entire curricula too.
Three Stages of Backward Design*
Stage 1: Identify desired results
Stage 2: Determine acceptable evidence
Stage 3: Plan what needs to happen for desired results

+ 7 = fourteen
9:27 am
February 7, 2012
A few years ago I had a birthday that triggered a lot of thought about my life and goals. I realized for the first time that I was getting older and I might not have as much time and good health left as I'd thought. So I decided to focus my time and energy on the things that are most important to me.
I decided that I wanted to spend much more time making and fixing things. I started machining metal as a hobby and I created a website about it called MachinistBlog.com because I also enjoy teaching. And I started putting together the well-equipped workshop I'd wanted since I was a young teenager.
I've been having fun and learning a lot. But there's still something important missing. I would very much like to meet and spend some time around others who also like learning, being creative and working with their hands instead spending their evenings watching TV or surfing the Internet. So that's one reason why I want to see if we can get a successful and vibrant maker space started in Rochester NY.
I also want to get a maker space started because I can still vividly remember being a young adult and wanting to use tools and to make things. But I couldn't because I was poor and living in a small apartment. There were no maker spaces back then but if there had been I would have found a way to join one.
And finally,I think I've had a big advantage in life because I grew up in a home that had tools and I was encouraged to use them. It seems like that's much less common today. I could go on about that but I'll just say that anything we can do to get kids away from their video game consoles and into a workshop would be a good thing for them and our community.
However, I don't know yet if we will offer access or programs for kids because it won't be entirely my decision and we may be very focused for awhile on getting established and becoming financially stable. But I hope we will.
I don't have a great need to run this project. If someone more qualified and motivated wants to take over I'll quickly step aside and support them. In the meantime I believe I am very capable of getting this project launched and making it a success. I have strong leadership skills and a lot of management experience (although my management skills might be a bit rusty).
I've also been a member or part of the leadership of many clubs and other member run organizations. As a result I've had a chance to see some very well run ones and some very poorly run ones. Many of them were flying clubs and I think my experiences with them will be particularly useful because their goals were very similar to our – which is to provide affordable access to expensive and potentially dangerous equipment.
Please speak up if you have any questions or if you're interested in joining a maker space or supporting us in some other way. We need to learn what others want from a maker space so we can start creating a workable plan for getting one started here in Rochester NY.

JACKSON, MS (WLBT) - The Jackson City Council has voted unanimously Tuesday to allow some residents of northeast Jackson to gate their community.
The area is along Carolwood Drive, near the Colonial Country Club.
The gated area would be between Briarwood Drive and Fairway Street.
The gated community is on a street of very nice homes along Carolwood Drive.
Homeowners petitioned the city to close it off to through their neighborhood for safety reasons, although they would not say that on camera.
WLBT asked City Public Works Director Dan Gaillet who would be responsible for maintaining the gated off street.
"Basically the owners of the property will be responsible for the maintenance of the street," Gaillet said.
The city council also dealt with another issue that has homeowners concerned in northeast Jackson.
It is this new Dollar General store at the corner of County Line Road and Old Canton Road, across from Krystals.
New Jackson City Councilman Quentin Whitwell inherited the issue but explained the area had already been zoned C-2 which permits such construction and there was nothing he could do but try to make the Dollar General nicer.
"Another alternative was the signing, the signing will of course be better, lighting will be less intrusive to the neighborhood," Councilman Whitwell said. "As I said today and I will say again, basically this Dollar General will be a Two Dollar General store."
Residents on Carolwood Drive would not talk on camera, but several did off camera.
They said the street was being used as a cut through for speeding motorists coming from Adkins Boulevard to Old Canton Road and they feared for the safety of their children.

Why a Soul Swapping HappensReasons why a soul decides to depart from the physical and return to spirit can vary. When the soul has met or surpassed his purpose for incarnation into the body it may choose a new experience elsewhere and chooses to exit the body. It is not unusual for souls to "re-negotiate" their soul contracts one or more times during a lifetime and continue living in the body. But, in some cases, the soul wants out entirely and will offer the body along with its formed personality for another soul to walk into. Other times a soul will choose to opt-out because it feels the challenge of being human is too difficult and wishes to be released from the physical and reflect on its choices, and re-evaluate his life plan while residing in the spiritual realm.
When Do Soul Exchanges Happen?When a soul decides to vacate the physical form another soul may opt-in and take up residence in the body. Both souls have to be in agreement for a swap to happen. The exchange or transfer of souls will usually happen during a trauma in a personality's lifetime such as a an auto accident, major surgery, suicide attempt, episode of depression or some other suffering. Sometimes a soul will exit the body at the end stages of life allowing another soul the opportunity to experience being in a coma or other pre-death experiences. This could account for some terminal patients not recognizing family members sitting vigil at their death beds.
Transient Walk-insSometimes a soul will "rent out" its body to another soul for a short period of time, allowing itself a respite from human life. Transient souls will walk-in to a human body similar to professional house-sitters. The transient walk-in will play house with your family, friends, neighbors, etc. until the original soul returns.
Guest Walk-in SoulsSometimes a soul will agree to walk-in and reside in the body alongside the original soul as partners. This is much like opening up your home to a guest, having a roommate, or employing a live-in housekeeper. The guest walk-in will agree to co-inhabit the body for different reasons. A walk-in may come in as an observer, merely wanting to shadow your life. This may happen when the original soul is considering exiting the body permanently but hasn't made its final decision. Or, a guest walk-in will arrive to help out or support the original soul while he is recuperating from a trauma or facing a difficult challenge. Sometimes the original soul will serve as a "interviewer" or "on the job trainer" to teach the walk-in for a short period of time before he exits permanently. Many different scenarios can be played out when two souls choose to co-inhabit one body/personality.
Do You Think You Could Be a Walk-in?Walk-in souls often struggle to identify with the personality that they are taking over. This is because they usually come in when the personality is emotionally damaged or the body has been harmed in some way. Walk-in souls also have the responsibility to learn how to live among other souls who are the original soul's life mates (friends, family members, neighbors, co-workers, etc.). If you are feeling estranged from your own being, or are having difficulty relating to the people in your life, in theory, you could possibly be a walk-in.
Am I a Walk-in? - Taking this quiz could give you some clues whether or not you are a walk-in.

SPRINGFIELD, Ill. (AP) -- The Illinois Senate has voted to restore money that Gov. Pat Quinn cut from the budget to force the closure of prisons and other state facilities.
The Senate voted 35-16 to reject cuts of $56 million to fund the Tamms high-security prison, the Dwight women's lockup and other sites.
The measure moves to the House. If the House approves it, Quinn wouldn't be forced to spend the money on the facilities. But it would prohibit the Democratic governor from spending the cash on anything else.
Quinn opposed the override. He wants to improve child-protection program funding. His administration has argued that Tamms and some juvenile detention centers are underutilized and that developmentally disabled residents in state institutions would do better in community settings.
The bill is SB2474.

A runner at the Boston Marathon fell close to the finish line, according to tweets from Washington Post political reporter Wesley Lowery. But instead of helping him to the side or waiting for medical staff to come, fellow runners put him over their shoulders and carried him.
At first, according to Lowery's tweets, it was just two runners.
Runner gave out near 26 mile mark, right by the site where 1st bomb went off. 1 guy stopped to help, then another http://t.co/gcwMxpssdK—
Wesley Lowery (@WesleyLowery) April 21, 2014
But his legs just couldn't do it. The group struggled a few feet. Another man stopped to help, and a woman http://t.co/nM8FGP9Vgx—
Wesley Lowery (@WesleyLowery) April 21, 2014
Then came two others and together, the runners finished the race.
Determined, the two new saviors lifted his legs. He had just a few hundred feet to go. They would get him there http://t.co/5tXvNyDGUJ—
Wesley Lowery (@WesleyLowery) April 21, 2014
The crowd exploded into loudest cheer I've heard today. Walking, then jogging, they all, all 5, finished the race http://t.co/HE4QJnh35L—
Wesley Lowery (@WesleyLowery) April 21, 2014
More from the Washington Post:
As the runner was carried toward the finish, now just a few blocks away, the man cried out to his new teammates. "Let me walk it. Let me walk across the finish. I need to finish," he urged those who carried his limp body. The five were now just a few hundred feet from the finish line. As they crowd roared, they set him down.
"We made a decision," [Dave] Meyer recalled. "Let's put him down. Let's let him walk across on his own."
Then, individually, they each finished the race.

The Herald Bulletin
---- — For the past 40 years I have been traveling the Hoosier State watching auto racing at numerous venues, but the 2013 season will be one that is long remembered.
Indiana racing fans were treated to outstanding racing on both pavement and dirt ovals during the year, with open wheel pavement events taking the top two spots.
The best race of the year was the Pay Less Little 500 with Crawfordsville driver Jacob Wilson claiming the win in a thrilling finish with Kokomo hot shoe Shane Cottle.
Wilson grabbed the lead from Cottle on lap 335 when Chet Fillip blocked the leader as the field was coming to a restart and Fillip was trying not to fall a lap down.
Wilson and Cottle raced in lock step for the next 155 laps when things got really interesting. Cottle closed to the rear bumper of Wilson and challenged for the lead with five laps remaining. Unfortunately for Cottle his Larry Contos owned sprint car lost an engine. Instead of bringing out the caution flag, Cottle dove into the pits.
For Wilson it was his first Little 500 win. He was followed to the checkers by pole sitter JoJo Helberg, Eric Gordon and Tony Elliott, all on the lead lap. Fillip finished fifth, two laps down followed by Cottle.
The second best race of the year was the record setting Indianapolis 500 won by fan favorite Tony Kanaan.
Kanaan passed Ryan Hunter-Reay in the waning laps of the spring classic, winning under caution when Dario Franchitti made contact with the outside wall entering turn one.
The race featured a record 68 lead changes among 14 different drivers and Kanaan's winning speed of 187.433 miles per hour set another record.
Third on the list is the Winchester 400 for the ARCA/CRA super late models with Erik Jones taking the lead from Chase Elliott on lap 352 during the final round of pit stops.
Jones held off Elliott for the final 34 laps to win by a half second. Mason Mingus, Augie Grill and Daniel Hemric rounded out the top five.
Fourth on my list is the ARCA series race at Salem Speedway in April. Tom Hessert passed Spencer Gallagher in a Green-White-Checker finish for his third career win. There were numerous lead changes during the race and several caution periods.
I placed the Brickyard 400 next on the top races of 2013 because the win came down to pit strategy during the final pit stop. Ryan Newman opted to take two tires while Jimmie Johnson changed four tires.
After all the drivers completed their final stops, Newman led the final 11 circuits to beat Johnson by 2.67-seconds. Kasey Kahne finished third followed by Tony Stewart.
The Stoops Freightliner Red Bud 300 is next with Michigan driver Johnny VanDoorn passing Travis Braden on the back straight following a restart with 146 laps remaining. For VanDoorn it was a win in the second leg of the $100,000 challenge sponsored by JEGS.
He held off T.J. Reaid, Ross Kenseth, Eddie VanMeter and Braden for the victory.
Next on my list is the National Crown at Anderson Speedway for the outlaw Figure-8 cars, a race that saw several early leaders eliminated by incidents in the cross-over.
Jeff Shackleford and Jesse Tunney staged a heated battle for the victory over the final 86 laps with Robbie Loving, R.J. Norton III and Steve Durham rounding out the top five.
Other races on my list included the three days of racing at Kokomo Speedway for the USAC Sprints. The best drive of the three nights of racing was turned in by Cottle, who passed started last in the B-Main, drove to the win and then finished fourth in the feature.
Curtis Chapman's bump and run pass of Johny Magee on lap 57 to win the NASH-FM 100-lap feature at Anderson Speedway and Josh Poore's dominating win in the CRA Street Stock 200.

CLEVELAND - A body was found in Lake Erie at a marina near East 55th Street in Cleveland Thursday morning.
The Cleveland Fire Department confirmed it responded to the lake off North Marginal Road just before noon.
According to Cleveland EMS, there was a body discovered there. The Cuyahoga County Medical Examiner's Office said it is sending a crew to the scene.
The scene of the incident has been identified as being the Gordon Shore Boat Club, and an employee apparently spotted the body.
The body was pulled from the water and rescue teams left the area. Officers guarded the body until the medical examiner's office arrived.
Later in the day, the medical examiner's office said the body is a male.

The Nextar Snap3 may look good on paper with an admirable feature set and affordable price tag, but road tests prove this GPS device to be a dud.

The HTC Snap for Sprint offers snappy performance and good messaging features, but the smartphone's plastic build and lack of Wi-Fi don't justify the price.
With its slick metal body, the HTC One Mini 2 is among the most luxurious compact phones around. HTC, however, has given it a set of specs that put it more alongside the dirt-cheap Moto G than the One M8. This is definitely not the flagship One M8 in a more compact form. If style is of the utmost importance, it's worth checking out, but the Moto G is much better value.

Combined choir helps cement relations between Jewish and Christian singers
2:10pm Tuesday 25th March 2014 in News By Charlotte Ikonen
A 22-strong combined choir of St Martin's church, Shenley and Radlett and Bushey Reform Synagogue recently performed in Radlett with songs from both Jewish and Christian traditions.
Members of the church choir took time to learn some Hebrew and both choirs enjoyed singing pieces ranging from those composed in the mid 1800's to those that had only been created in the last couple of years.
Rabbi Paul Freedman said: "The CCJ was established in the 1940's to promote religious and cultural understanding, to work for the elimination of discrimination and to promote religious and racial harmony.
"Events such as this concert help cement the good relations we share with our Christian neighbours."

The Mansfield School Building Project debate has been going on for years.
Should the town build new schools? Renovate its existing buildings? Make repairs as necessary?
The past few years have witnessed a community divided due to personal feelings about the need for repairs vs. the need for new buildings.
At Southeast Elementary School Monday, parents who were willing to voice their opinion on the topic, said they were just fine with the schools as they stand today.
Chris Petersen, the father of a Southeast kindergarten student, told Mansfield-Storrs Patch that those who believe the town's only option is to build new schools, "ought to get their priorities straight."
Let Patch save you time. Get great local stories like this delivered right to your inbox or smartphone every day with our free newsletter. Simple, fast sign-up here.
"I believe that we ought to work with what we have and I also believe that the tax-and-spend Democrats should think about the taxpayers as much as the children," Petersen said.
"I believe that these schools are very serviceable. Yeah okay, they [the buildings] need some repairs, but let's do the repairs at a substantial savings," he said, adding, "I think the students will be well-served with a remodeling project, rather than completely new buildings."
A father of two school-age children who requested anonymity because he is the husband of a school employee said, overall, he "kind of like(s) how it is now."
As the parent of a Southeast pre-schooler and first grader, the man said it wouldn't sit well with him if the project went to referendum and Southeast was not considered as a site for a new school.
"[Southeast] is a central hub," he said. "You have the ball fields right here, the soccer field's just down the street a little bit and it's between UConn and Willimantic so it is central hub which is nice," he said.

text: Ground was broken at the Manuel Q. Salinas Park Wednesday morning for the South Texas BMX Raceway track.Representatives from the South Texas BMX Raceway gathered with city officials to celebrate the highly anticipated development project.The goal is to give BMX fans a place to go and enjoy this thrilling sport. When completed, the 1,000-foot track will be an official BMX Raceway, essentially a race track for bicycles; and it's all thanks to the Click family."They're going to operate it and run races and practices, and workshops and camps, and it's a great use of a public space," said Stacie Talbert of Corpus Christi Parks and Recreation. "And you know, maybe the city wouldn't be able to develop, but here we have a business that's going to come here and partner and create some additional opportunities for kids to get out of the house, enjoy the outdoors and be active.""It's one of the fastest growing sports in the United States," said Jeffery Click of South Texas BMX. "It's actually become an Olympic sport in 2008, and in 2012 they ran it again. There's actually Olympic competing centers and training centers in San Diego that do national, statewide and local events."If all goes as planned, the BMX park will be open to the public later this year.

Some would say Anthony Pettis has been robbed twice. He was "promised" a UFC lightweight title shot when he defeated Ben Henderson for the WEC lightweight title in the last fight World Extreme Cagefighting ever promoted. Unfortunately for him, he watched as Frankie Edgar and Gray Maynard went to a draw at UFC 125, and a third bout between the two was necessary. Since then he has rebounded from a loss to Clay Guida by beating Jeremy Stephens, and he followed that up with a spectacular head-kick knockout of Joe Lauzon at UFC 144. When Dana White was asked after UFC 144 if Pettis would get his title shot, his answer was short, but typically vague:
"Probably. But we'll see what happens."
"We'll see what happens" turned out to be a Frankie Edgar vs. Ben Henderson rematch. I won't argue the merits of that decision here, though I do believe that the majority of fans aren't interested in seeing that again. This post is about what the UFC should do with Showtime now that he has been shut out of the title picture once again. To me, there's only one option - Gray Maynard. And here's why.
1. Pettis needs a signature win in the UFC. Wins over Jeremy Stephens and Joe Lauzon are good, but not good enough to give him the cred he needs to fight for a title. Sure, he holds a win over the champion, and did it in style. But like it or not, it was in another organization that only a fraction of UFC fans watched. Henderson earned his shot with three UFC wins, two over top-ten fighters. If Pettis beats Maynard, there's no denying him the shot.
2. Maynard deserves a top opponent for his comeback fight. Other than Clay Guida, there is no one else worthy of a fight with Gray. Maynard is still one of the best lightweights in the world, and has taken his training to another level since the Edgar loss. He has worked with Jose Aldo in Brazil, spent time at American Kickboxing Academy, and has taken a page out of B.J. Penn's book by working with Marv and Gary Marinovich on his conditioning. Maynard is still right there, and could easily earn another title shot if Henderson retains against Edgar and he can beat Pettis.
3. Showtime's reputation will be greatly enhanced with a win over a wrestler. Yes, he beat Ben Henderson in the WEC. But he was completely grounded by Clay Guida in his UFC debut, and UFC fans have short memories. A win over an excellent wrestler like Maynard would go a long way towards erasing the belief that Pettis can't hang with wrestlers in the big leagues.
4. It's the most logical fight to make.The only thing that comes close is Guida/Maynard, and that leaves Pettis out of the top-tier once again. Guida can fight Joe Lauzon or Gleison Tibau next. Maybe even Melvin Guillard, now that he's left Jackson's.
5. The booking should generate some trash talk. Maynard is known as a guy who is brutally honest when he does interviews, and he took Pettis to town in an interview last year. Pettis undoubtedly feels slighted by the fact that Edgar got a rematch, and has been viewed by some as a tad cocky. I think they'll have a few things to say about each other, which will help sell the bout.
The winner of Nate Diaz vs. Jim Miller at UFC on Fox 3 will likely meet the winner of Frankie Edgar vs. Ben Henderson 2. That's fine. But there's nothing wrong with booking this fight as well. It wouldn't happen until the summer, and the bout can be promoted as a number one contender's bout if things play out the right way. It's the best way to go. Joe Silva - let's do this.

CAIRO, GA (WALB) – Grady County is making some progress on a lake project that's been in the works for decades.
The U. S. Army Corps of Engineers issued a provisional permit earlier this week for the creation of a 960-acre fishing lake on Tired Creek. But the county still has some obstacles to overcome before it can begin construction.
The Tired Creek Lake project's history dates back to 1930, when the federal government proposed a lake and park be developed. Decades later, the project is still in the works.
"The ball was dropped a long time ago. And Grady County board of commissioners picked it back up in 1997," said Grady County Administrator Rusty Moye.
The county applied for a permit to build the lake in 1999. More than ten years passed, and the county finally received a provisional permit. But it has some fine print.
"There are seven general conditions and twenty-seven special conditions. And the provisional permit is not valid until all these conditions are met and agreed to," Moye said.
Most of the conditions are negotiable, but the biggest condition of them all is satisfying the Environmental Protection Agency. The EPA is against the construction of a 3,000 foot long dam needed to create the lake.
"It is impoundment of water and in their eyes it is destruction of property. They just don't agree with it,' Moye said.
The property where Grady County plans to build the lake is currently a series of creeks and marsh like land.
If the county receives the final go-ahead, they won't even need to dig out the lake.
"It's a geographic anomaly in this part of the country. It's a natural basin. When completed, the 956 acre lake will have approximately 200 acres of water that's at least 20-40 feet deep."
Officials say they strive to make the project tax-payer friendly.
"We're hoping the federal government will help us with some of it. And then of course once it's developed, we'll have fees for going out there that will help defer the operating costs."
But there's no telling how much longer the county may have to wait for that elusive green light.
Grady County commissioners plan to meet next week to discuss permit negotiations with the different agencies they're working with on the Tired Creek Lake project.©2010 WALB News. All rights reserved.

Officials with the American Cancer Society in Sioux Falls say getting an annual mammogram could very well save your life. October is Breast Cancer Awareness month, a great time they say to make sure you are doing everything you can to cut down on your risk of breast cancer.
National Mammography Day, was just celebrated on October 19th. Around this time the American Cancer Society says you need to keep in mind that getting an annual mammogram is the most important step women can take to protect against breast cancer. The American Cancer Society says women age 40 and over should schedule their annual mammogram. Thursday morning we will be live at the American Cancer Society in Sioux Falls speaking with ACS officials and a breast cancer survivor about the importance of being informed and getting screened.
The American Cancer Society says Breast cancer is the most commonly diagnosed cancer for women after skin cancer. They say it will affect nearly 230,000 people in 2012 and nearly 1 in every 8 women during their lifetime. They also say this year in South Dakota, approximately 600 new cases of breast cancer will be diagnosed.
Many survivors, doctors, and ACS officials will tell you when breast cancer is caught early, treatment is more effective and cures are more likely. The ACS says mammograms can detect breast cancer before it forms a characteristic lump or spreads to the lymph nodes or other organs. The ACS says since the 1960s, survival rates for breast cancer have increased from 63% to 90% thanks to improvements in early detection and treatment.
The American Cancer Society is also putting out a list they are calling the 7 things that every woman should know to protect her breast health:
1. The biggest risk factor for breast cancer is being a woman. That risk increases with age - the American Cancer Society recommends that women over the age of 40 get a yearly mammogram.
2. The best way to detect and evaluate changes is a mammogram which takes an x-ray of breast tissue. While not perfect, mammograms will detect 80-90% of breast cancers in women without symptoms.
3. Women who wait to have children until after the age of 30, choose to not breastfeed, are overweight, have a family history of breast cancer, or have certain other breast conditions may have a higher risk for breast cancer.
4. All women - including those with average risk - can help lower their risk for breast cancer by maintaining a healthy body weight, getting regular exercise, and limiting alcohol consumption.
5. If one or more of your relatives has had breast cancer, talk to your doctor about when you should start getting screened. It could be a life-saver.
6. Lumps aren't the only way to detect cancer: skin irritation, dimpling, pain, discharge, or scaliness can also be indicators of breast cancer.
7. Resources for local patients with breast cancer including rides to treatment, lodging, and 24-hour support can be found at www.cancer.org or by calling 1.800.277.2345.
If you or someone you know is concerned about paying for a mammogram, the American Cancer Society has resources to help. Call the American Cancer Society at 1.800.227.2345 or visit cancer.org to find a program near you and additional resources.

I'm sorry, but Kenyon Martin's attitude about taking his time with rehab until he gets an extension offer is just about the most Stiff-like, selfish, ungrateful, asinine quote that I have ever heard from a Denver Nugget.
Yesterday, Nuggets power forward Kenyon Martin said that he would be playing "right now" if he had an extension. Then K-Mart went on to rip the contract given to Al Harrington:
"...they gave Al the money. I don't have any problem with Al, but me and Al play the same position."
In addition to saying:
"I'm not rushing, whatsoever. The day I come back is the day I come back. I'm in the last year of my deal, we all know it. Ain't nobody in a hurry to give me one, so I'm not going to be in a hurry to come back. Think about it: Ain't nobody in a hurry to give me a contract, so why would I be in a hurry to rush back and risk further injury. Makes all the sense in the world, right?"
God, what a horrible, horrible sign and trade the Nuggets made when they acquired Martin. He has drained the Nuggets dry with his HUGE contract, the draft picks lost, his tantrums in the locker room, the injuries, his flat jump shot, the technicals, etc.
I am so over K-Mart - - bye bye bye.

Martinelli Says Reforms To Electoral Code Will Go Forward
Thursday, July 05 2012 @ 01:59 PM EDT
Contributed by: Don Winner
Views: 1,025
"It is quite right what the President said," said Edwin Zuniga, of the ruling Cambio Democratico after hearing about what Martinelli said. Deputy Hernan Delgado also considered it to be a negligence of the judges of the Electoral Court to request the withdrawal of the project. Zuniga made the proviso that as Deputies, they can add Articles at any point, and they are not limited to what was said in the Roundtable discussions. Meanwhile, Delgado said the petition of the magistrates of the Electoral Tribunal is an ignorance of the functions of the National Assembly. (TVN)
Editor's Comment: The job of the Electoral Tribunal is to oversee elections, as defined by the laws of Panama. The problem is that currently, the three judges on the Electoral Tribunal are not, in fact, neutral. The Electoral Tribunal is owned and operated by the PRD, and it would better serve the interests of the PRD political party if the proposed electoral reforms are not implemented. There is a movement and push by the minority parties to kill the initiative to pass the reforms to the electoral code, and the CD is indicating strongly they will proceed with those changes anyway. Expect another fight, and more headlines. One of the reasons the CD wanted Sergio Galvez running the National Assembly is because he will jam shit through without caring about the consequences. If Raul Pineda gets in Galvez's face (the same way he bum rushed Marco Gonzalez) he'll get his ass kicked right there on the floor of the Assembly. Well, at the very least he'll get sat on by a relatively fat man.

WASHINGTON (AP) - The Obama administration is easing the rules for would-be asylum-seekers, refugees and other immigrants who have given "limited" support to terrorists or terrorist groups.
It's one of the first administration actions on immigration announced since President Barack Obama pledged to use more executive actions during his State of the Union address in January.
The Homeland Security Department and the State Department now say that people considered to have provided "limited material support" to terrorists or terrorist groups no longer will automatically be barred from the United States.
Previously, anyone considered to have given support to terrorists would be barred from the United States under a post-Sept. 11 policy.
The policy change was published this past week in the Federal Register.

Six air traffic control towers is Michigan are slated to close in early April. The shutdowns are part of the FAA's move to reduce spending by $600 million under automatic federal budget cuts. They affect mostly small and medium-size airports.
Michigan airports on the list are Ann Arbor, W.K. Kellogg in Battle Creek, Coleman A. Young in Detroit, Jackson County-Reynolds Field in Jackson, Muskegon County and Sawyer International in Marquette County.
The Lansing and Willow Run airport towers are among 72 nationwide that could close overnight through eliminating midnight shifts. Some airports are pressing their cases to preserve those services. Officials at several say they expect to remain open but these cuts raise concerns about safety.
238 control towers are scheduled to close nationwide.

United Way volunteers recognize that financial means are not the only approach to improving our community's well-being. By employing a variety of strategies, the Nonprofit Management Center (NMC) serves as a resource to nonprofit organizations in East Tennessee that have a desire to strengthen their skills, their organizations, and ultimately their delivery of client services.
United Way has often served as a training site, hosting and co-hosting seminars and workshops for nonprofit professional development. For example, each fall NMC partners with the Knoxville News Sentinel to offer a course in Media Relations through which hundreds of nonprofits have connected and learned about working with television, radio and print media.

CATEGORIES Sci-Fi & Fantasy, Casting, Fandom, Remakes and Sequels, ComicCon, Comic-Con, CinematicalWhile speaking to fans during Comic Con, Peter Jackson revealed that The Hobbit is much farther away than fans have been led to believe: "Everyone assumes we're casting but we're not," he said. Recently rumors suggested that Jackson (who's producing this time around while Guillermo del Toro directs) would use this time at Con to announce who would play Bilbo Baggins in the much-anticipated double-feature prequel, though not only did he not reveal any names -- he claimed they're not even close to choosing one.
Jackson said that they're three or four weeks away from handing in the first draft of the script, and that the film isn't even really greenlit yet -- they still need to finish writing, get approval on the script, and have the budget approved before we will see any actual progress in the way of casting. While there is no doubt that the film will get made, it's still in that squishy working stage, and we shouldn't be scanning the trades for a Bilbo Baggins casting announcement for a few more months.
Hopefully, though, things will remain on target so that we'll all be able to watch the first Hobbit film when it hits theaters in December of 2011. We'll have more from Peter Jackson in a little while as Cinematical was one of a handful of sites who got to sit down for an intimate chat with the filmmaker. Stay tuned ...

What happens when Phase 2 is complete
by jrflorida, Wed Nov 02, 2005 at 11:12:31 AM EST
I just read on CNN
They are completeing the investigation? I've seen nothing in the way of hearings on the matter. I've heard no protests of the administration yielding resources to investigators. He says they are almost complete, how could they have even begun?
Appearing on CNN's "American Morning," Roberts said his staff informed Democrats of the status of the investigation "just two days ago." He said his staff told Democrats the committee was completing "Phase 2" of its investigation.
They are completeing the investigation? I've seen nothing in the way of hearings on the matter. I've heard no protests of the administration yielding resources to investigators. He says they are almost complete, how could they have even begun?
I don't believe the administration is capable of investigating itself and its clear the Republicans in the Senate and House tow the party line. They are a bunch of robots all reading from the same talking points. Who puts this list out, it clearly exists, and can someone tap into it? I personally want Iran-Contra style hearings on the matter. I fully expect a Republican managed investigation to come back saying the administration was sold a bill of goods and was in no way at fault. They clearly setup Part I just for this end result. But I know based on the evidence that has leaked (Downing St memos, Niger uranium issue, Leakgate, etc) and my own eyes and ears over the years that the administration fixed the intelligence (I don't get why its called intelligence if its fabricated out of whole cloth). My question is what are your expectations? I expect the Dems to shut down the government until a real open fully transparent non-partisan investigation is conducted. How in the world could Republicans argue against that? Just like the filibuster, a Democrat sitting on his hands because Republican spinmeisters might paint him/her as an obstructionist is of no value. Use it, the filibuster or policital power, or it doesn't exist in the first place. Anything less is unacceptable. Anything less gets your butt thrown out of office.
"However long it takes, working in good faith, we will look into Phase 2 and see what we can do and finish that product," Roberts said.
Product? What the hell is that? I don't want a product wrapped up in some nice fancy bow ready to sell to the American people. I want heads on a platter...bow optional.

Kagome Kagome is the new screen name for an unidentified German Limit Hold'em expert that many know as IHateJuice. In fact, he would probably still be playing under the alias IHateJuice if Full Tilt Poker hadn't made him change the name in January of 2011; Full Tilt's reasoning behind the forced name change was that too many people were complaining about the nickname IHateJuice.
IHateJuice did counter back with a request to have his profile country changed from Germany to Japan because he is a, "huge fan of this country and loves to spend time there." This is most likely why he changed his screen name to Kagome Kagome, which is both a Japanese children's game and a Japanese manga.
Moving away from his controversial back story, Kagome Kagome claims to have started playing poker when he was 16. He was mostly an unsuccessful grinder in the beginning, and chose to stick to $3/$6 and $5/$10 Limit Hold'em. But towards the end of 2009, he had worked his way up to $200/$400 Fixed Limit games, and had amassed a $100k bankroll.
By the spring of 2010, he was grinding with the world's best Limit Hold'em players at the $1,500/$3,000 and $2,000/$4,000 stakes, and his bankroll had spiked into the $800k range. In the fall of 2010, Kagome Kagome had made his first million through online poker, and he quickly increased that amount to $2 million before the New Year.
Kagome Kagome has also had some good battles with Phil Ivey. After winning over $112k off of Ivey in a December, 2010 session, he asked Ivey to convince Full Tilt to add some $3k/$6k Limit Hold'em tables; interestingly enough, Full Tilt now offers these stakes. In any case, Ivey came back to beat Kagome Kagome for over $500k in a single session during February. The losses marked a low point for Kagome Kagome, having dropped $800k total after the name change.
