In suburban Milwaukee, the warmth of Christmas Eve was suddenly pierced by news that a member of the police force had been killed on duty. Jennifer Sebena, 30, of the Wauwatosa Police Department, was shot several times early on the morning of the 24th. After dispatchers were unable to contact Sebena, officers were sent to look for her. Her body was found near the Wauwatosa Fire Station.
Christmas passed by, marred by unanswered questions regarding Sebena's untimely death. "Our hearts are really heavy," said Wauwatosa police Lieutenant Gerald Witkowski, adding that Sebena was a "great person" and a "great officer." Immediately after Sebena's murder, police had no suspects and Witkowski urged witnesses to come forward.
But even in the death of a police officer, police often don't have to look far from the home for a suspect. Late Wednesday night, Wauwatosa police took Sebena's husband, Marine vet Ben Sebena, 30, into custody. He has not been formally charged, but is being held at Milwaukee county jail on a tentative charge of first-degree intentional homicide, according to a statement issued by Wauwatosa police.
Ben Sebena served two tours in Iraq before sustaining severe injuries to his arms and legs. He was awarded the Purple Heart. Upon his return home, he was featured in a promotional video for "No Regrets Men's Ministries," an annual religious conference aimed at men which takes places throughout the Midwest. In the clip, Ben spoke about proposing to his wife: "We became infatuated with each other and then one day I asked her if she would be happy spending the rest of her life with me, and she said 'Yes." Following news of his arrest, No Regrets has made the video featuring Ben private.
Jennifer Sebena served with the police department for only two years before leaving the unfortunate legacy of becoming the first person killed in the line of duty in the department's 96-year history.

They seem to be using the "Can you feel it: slogan from last year too. I thought they usually changed that from year to year. Maybe they thought they did so well with it last year that they would use it again. Anyway, it's a sign the season is not too far off.

April 3, 2008Albany -- No charges will be filed against the mother of an Albany one-year old who died after falling into a bucket of bleach Saturday.
Coroner Emma Quimbley announced preliminary autopsy results show Asia Brown drowned. She also said the bleach in the bucket was so highly concentrated that it damaged the toddler's organs.
We now know that Brown's 13-year-old brother was the one mopping the floor and left the five gallon bucket sitting on a mat outside the kitchen along with the mop. Brown's five-year-old sister found her, pulled her out of the bucket, and attempted CPR.
Assistant District Attorney Chris Cohilas said there was no criminal intent and it's just a tragic accident.
"The overwhelming evidence demonstrates this was a horrible accident, there was no criminal intent," said Cohilas. "This mother has suffered a loss that no parent would ever want to suffer and this is just an accident that can occur with children who are curious and left unattended just a for a few moments."
Funeral services were held this afternoon for Asia Brown in Northwest Georgia. Feedback: email@example.com?subject=AsiaBrown-JE

For North Jersey early-bird shoppers, a lonely — but eager — vigil for Black Friday
The early birds of the Black Friday shopping fest expected good deals Thursday — but not the loneliness.
Surprisingly, many found themselves perched solo in front of stores during much of the afternoon as lines failed to materialize til sunset at several merchandisers that had chosen to open a day early for the annual frenzy. Add in the cool weather, and, well, it was a good things their hearts were warmed by thoughts of the no-waiting big deals ahead.
Wrapped under a green comforter and bundled in three layers of cotton clothes, Atte Huber, 18, of New Milford considered it a triumph to be first on line at the Target store in Hackensack about 2:30 p.m. on Thanksgiving. The college freshman had researched the deals for a 46-inch flat screen television and found he'd get hundreds of dollars off. He arrived 5½ hours early to beat the store's 8 p.m. opening and found that he and pal Sean Niranjan, 18, were virtually alone.
"Last year's line was worse, definitely worse," Huber said. "We came here at the same time and they were much longer."
By about 4 p.m., other customers had arrived but sat in their cars to avoid the cold; still others drove in and out of the parking lot asking the duo when the store would open.
It drew a smile from Huber, a veteran of Black Friday sales.
"I'd go anywhere I can to get a great deal, and Target had the best ones," he said. "I just came here with a lot of money, and we'll see what else I can get."
Niranjan just wanted out of the impending chill and back home to New Milford.
"If we didn't have this blanket, it would be a lot worse out here," he said. "I have an old tube television from 2004 so I need a TV. The deal here is to maybe get $200 or $300 off … and that's a good deal for a 36-inch flat screen."
The duo were proud they'd made a plan to avoid what they anticipated would be a long line as the hours passed.
"We thought about doing this last week, hoping to get things cheaper," Niranjan said. "We think that as time goes on tonight, this line will be much much longer."
Down the block at Sears, Bill Jaume, 36, was new to the "line scene" and also surprised to be one of a few waiting for cheaper goods. People on line grasped store circulars advertising goods from appliances to clothing.
"I feel like I'm 19 years old right now," Jaume said of his first Black Friday outing. "I want a 50-inch flat screen TV."
Jaume was visiting family in Maywood and after Thanksgiving dinner arrived with his cousins about 3:30 p.m. at the Hackensack store wearing sweats and hats. The family's Chevy pickup was parked about 20 feet from the River Street entrance to the store.
"I was going to wait, but my cousin said to try this," he said. "When does someone this old do this?"
Jaume's cousin Anthony Martinez, 13, of Maywood, sat in his lounge chair outside the store in hopes of a deal on a mixer and toaster. He didn't seem to mind the cooling temps as the afternoon brought cooler temps.
"It's not for me … it's for my mom and dad," the teen said. "I told them I would go. It's cheaper to get stuff today. I thought it would pretty cool to come and stay outside."
The line of shoppers at the Best Buy in Woodland Park stretches past the front of the store and around a corner, but Black Friday veterans say this year is nothing compared to last: "Last year the line went around the whole building, twice," said Zaid Qasem of Wayne who has been camped out since Wednesday night, surviving on sandwiches and ice tea. "I've never done this before, but they've actually got really good deals."
Qasem is in the market for a TV and Play Station 3.
Andonelle Rosario, who has been at the store since Wednesday, was aiming for hard drives when the store opens at midnight. He said he'll get a three terabyte hard drive for $100. Last year he bought four, sold two and made $400.
"I don't see how you can go wrong with that," he said, adding "Last year there were way more people at this time,"
"I actually don't mind" camping out, said Rosario. "You get to see the craziness in people. Sometimes a little chaos is fun."
Tia Porter of Paterson has been at the Best Buy since Wednesday.
"It was really cold last night," Porter said. "But you got to do what you got to do. This is the consequence."
Porter is in the market for two TVs — but she said she won't be camping out next year.

For starters, most motorcycles are limited in their storage capacity. Though all-out touring bikes such as the Honda Gold Wing and the BMW K1200LT offer numerous hard cases for the storage of extra clothes and gear, long distance riders are often forced to make tough decisions about the details of their trips, and how much of what items they need to pack.
Important Points to ConsiderThe first questions you'll want to ask yourself when planning a trip pertain to how long you plan on being gone, where you intend to go, and what you have in mind for lodging.
First on your list of "must pack" items is a safety and repair kit, which we've covered in a separate article.
Unless you're riding a fully fledged touring motorcycle, you'll probably need to invest in some type of storage bags; backpacks don't count. Options include saddlebags (which rest straddle the seat and rest on either side of the rear wheel, and are also known as panniers,) and tank bags, which sit directly atop the fuel tank (and often have handy clear plastic windows for displaying maps.) While hard bags offer more weather protection than soft bags, they are also costlier, add more weight, and require more involved installation. Centrally positioned tail bags are another option if you need even more storage.
Inspect Your BikeWhile more detailed inspection and maintenance practices can be found in our motorcycle maintenance section, the Motorcycle Safety Foundation's T-CLOCS method is an efficient way to inspect your bike before traveling:
- T: Tires.
Make sure both tires are properly inflated, using an air pressure monitor that you bring with you on rides. Don't risk riding on tires that might need replacement; if suspect a tire will not last long enough for a ride, have it replaced.
- C: Controls.
Are your cables (clutch and brakes) and controls intact and working?
- L: Lights.
Make sure your headlights (high & low beam), turn signals, and brake lights work.
- O: Oils & fluids.
Check everything from engine oil and coolant to brake fluid.
- C: Chassis.
Ensure that the frame, suspension, chain, and fasteners are all secure and intact.
- S: Stands.
Make sure the center stand and/or side stand isn't cracked or bent, and that springs properly hold the assembly away from the pavement when stowed.
Packing TipsPacking for a long distance motorcycle ride is a delicate balance between bringing enough items to ensure comfort, and not overloading yourself with unnecessary weight and bulk. After you've planned your route, you'll want to check the weather forecast and get an idea of what to expect in terms the elements.
A good touring suit is an excellent investment, and when choosing your clothes, consider packing several thin layers of clothing, rather than a few thick ones. Flexibility is the key to staying comfortable; it's far better to have the option to stop and shed or add layers as necessary, than to shiver or sweat your way through what would otherwise be an enjoyable, scenic route.
Be sure to bring energy bars or trail mix and water; if hunger or thirst strikes while you're far from convenience stores or gas stations, the nourishment will come in handy and keep your riding skills sharp.
When loading up your bike, always put heavier, more solid items on the bottom and sides closer to the bike (to centralize weight.) Lighter items should go on top. If you don't have saddlebags or tank bags, you should consider using bungee nets to secure loose items. If you must travel with items secured by a bungee net, ensure that they are snug and will not get loosened by winds or g-forces. Again, placing heavier , wider, and more stable items at the bottom will provide an anchor for looser, floppier pieces (like sleeping pads or pillows.)
Finally, equip yourself well. Always wear a full-face helmet for maximum protection-- not only against accidents, but also from the elements. Full-face helmets can provide a shield from rain and cold winds, and if constructed with ventilation, can also provide a certain level of comfort in warm weather. It may feel constricting in heat, but the overall benefits of choosing safety over style are vast when considering your long-term health and well being.
Plan, Plan, Plan...Though it's tempting to hit the open road and simply follow your nose, don't forget that you're more vulnerable to the elements, fatigue, and potentially serious injury on a motorcycle. Prepare yourself with clothing appropriate for the weather. Plan a route and, if you don't have a portable GPS system, do whatever it takes not to get lost-- even if it means taping directions to the top of your fuel tank. Err in the direction of filling up with gas too frequently; because of their relatively low cruising range, most bikes will barely make it across some of the North American stretches of highway that are sparsely populated. When in doubt, fill up.
Pace your travels realistically. Don't try to ride so many hours in a day that it might affect your reflexes or decision making ability; after all, most of the fun is in the journey, not simply in reaching a destination. While riding, be sure to stop whenever necessary-- whether for a snack, a stretch, or a nap. The simple act of taking a breather will make the ride all the more enjoyable.

A new statewide program is announced today aimed at benefiting crime victims as well those that serve them.
Attorney General Marty Jackley has announced today the addition of the statewide automated victim information and notification program or SAVIN as its known.
The program provides vital information and notifications 24 hours a day 365 days a year. Information will include trials, sentencing dates, release from custody and will be easily obtained by those in the program.
Jackley has appointed several individuals throughout the state to participate in a SAVIN advising commission. Pennington County Sheriff Kevin Thom is one of the members and believes the program will benefit those involved.
"I was the one who advocated for it in the criminal Justice court group initially so I'm pleased to see it got included in the legislation and I think it will be a tremendous asset for victims in South Dakota."
790,000 dollars has been allocated for this programs 2 year development.

How can you share information with other applications? A SIMs is, without question, a powerful part of a security infrastructure, but it can't do it alone. You'll need other hardware and software to deal with the incidents discovered by the SIM, and life will be easier if the SIM itself can handle some of the interaction with those other pieces of infrastructure. As you're looking at SIMs, think about how you want the humans in the security hierarchy to work with the automated systems. Do you want the systems to take care of as much as possible, then notify staff as to what has been done? Or do you want the humans to keep their hands on the controls while the systems provide intelligent help?
Some SIMs will work in either of these ways -- or in both, as you begin with humans in control and gradually give more authority to the system as you gain confidence in its capabilities. Ask the vendors about which model they follow so that you can zero in on those that match your deployment expectations.
How easy is the SIM to install and configure? This is the big wild card. As with virtually any category of hardware or software, there are products that are relatively easy to install, and there are some that will occupy your every waking moment for far too long. In most cases, deploying a SIM will break down into two lengthy tasks: arranging for the SIM to gather information from the network, and arranging for you to glean information from the SIM.
Getting information to the SIM varies in complexity depending on whether the SIM is collecting log files, gathering data from its own network of probes, or both. Initial efforts may be more or less dependent on how actively the SIM gathers its basic information. Does the SIM initiate scans of devices on the network, or does it simply sniff the traffic stream for events, assets, and suspicious traffic patterns?
In similar ways, the effort involved in configuring security monitoring and analysis can vary greatly depending on the degree of automation built into the SIM's installation routine. Some SIMs will put themselves into a configuration that's minimally useful by default. Others require you to step through an extensive setup routine. The payoff to this greater time investment is the system will, from the get-go, gather information tailored to your needs.

Description And Comments
Guide-operated boats wind along canals situated beneath the same miniature landscapes visible from the Casey Jr. Circus Train. This ride, offering stellar examples of bonsai cultivation, selective pruning, and miniaturization, is a must for landscape gardening enthusiasts. The landscapes include scenes from more recent Disney features, in addition to those from such classics as The Wind in the Willows and The Three Little Pigs.
Touring Tips
The boats are much more comfortable than the train; the view of the miniatures is better; and the pace is more leisurely. On the downside, the lines are long, and if not long, definitely slow moving. The ride itself also takes a lot of time. Our recommendation is to ride Casey Jr. if you have children or are in a hurry. Take the boat if your party is all adults or your pace is more leisurely. Best of all, the boats' pilots deliver live narration that (depending on the driver) can be delightfully droll. If you ride the canal boats, try to get on before 10:30 a.m. If the queue isn't prohibitive, this ride is especially appealing after dusk, when the creative lighting adds a whole new dimension. Closed during parades.
Special Comments
Pretty, tranquil, and serene.

The Imagineers used all sorts of tricks when they were building Disneyland's Storybook Land Canal Boat ride, even going so far as to find miniature redwoods to plant along the riverbank so the trees would match the scale of the tiny houses that line the canal. One fellow, looking for a way to make a miniature church roof look old and weathered, really went above and beyond the call of duty. Research revealed that urine has an extremely corrosive effect on metal - so guess how this Imagineer finished every lunch hour?

Biography All Music GuideWikipedia
All Music Guide:
Formed around the talents of guitarist/vocalist Jay Gulley, guitarist/pianist/vocalist JoJo Glidewell, bassist/vocalist Phillip Brantley, and drummer John Swint, smart, melodic Brit-rock-inspired indie pop quartet the Modern Skirts infiltrated the crowded Athens, GA, music scene in 2004 with their debut EP, This Is Winning and Thinking. The band's soaring harmonies and obvious gift for songcraft won it an attentive audience early on, resulting in numerous awards and both regional and national showcase performances that culminated with the release of 2005's full-length Catalogue of Generous Men.
Modern Skirts was an alternative rock band based in Athens, GA. The band consists of four members: Jay Gulley (guitar and vocals), JoJo Glidewell (guitar, piano, and vocals), Phillip Brantley (bass, guitar, and vocals) and John Q. Swint (drums).
Formation and First Album[edit]
Formed in early 2004, the band quickly gained popularity and notoriety in the Athens music scene thanks largely to the buzz created by their high-energy live shows in the Athens area, mostly at the world-famous 40 Watt Club. August 2005 saw the independent release of their debut album, titled Catalogue of Generous Men. The album quickly became a standard in Athens, and won the band the first of several Athens Music Awards. The album has been praised in various media outlets, most notably in Paste Magazine and on National Public Radio. The vocal harmonies and subtle melancholy in songs like "Pasadena" and "Sugarpile" have helped to secure the groups success in Athens and around the Southeast. Modern Skirts prominent use of the piano derives from the significant influences of groups such as The Beach Boys, and their flexible use of song structure centers around catchy melodies and memorable hooks, similar to those used in Brit-Pop and by The Velvet Underground.
Current Plans[edit]
The band has spent the last two years touring intensively up and down the East Coast and across the South. The group's second album, All Of Us In Our Night, was released in October 2008 and features "Soft Pedals" and "Radio Breaks." They enjoyed a successful mini tour in England in the fall of 2007 where they were filmed by producers from The Tube, who became interested in the band after R.E.M. bassist Mike Mills cited Modern Skirts as his favorite Athens band in a post Hall of Fame interview early 2007. During the summer of 2008 the band spent two weeks on a European tour, the highlight of which was opening for R.E.M. in Amsterdam and then again in Belgium. They still regularly play at the 40 Watt Club in Athens, 930 Club in Washington DC, Mercury Lounge and Pianos in Manhattan, Union Hall in Brooklyn and hundreds of other clubs across the country. The February 2008 issue of Q magazine featured a CD with a single from All Of Us In Our Night. Modern Skirts' latest EP, "Happy 81," was released in July 2010, with a full length album scheduled for release in the Fall of 2010.

that was just awesome event to visit just feeling bit sad as i missed this great event...../;.
Eh idk... I don't think Facebook will be very successful with other things.
'Facebook phone' doesn't seem "Right" I guess.
My prediction:
1. Facebook's desktop site will once again undergo a major overhaul.
2. Everyone will ***** and moan about the changes and make posts - ON FACEBOOK - about how they hate facebook and are swapping to Google+.
3. Two weeks later everyone will be glued to the new facebook as they were before.
Just a hunch.
Take it now could be a good time to buy some Facebook stock possibly?
The only reason Facebook is still in business, i feel this way about apple too occasionally, is because its so universal, Facebook is clogged with all this crap and now everytime someone likes a photo/page/status It's in my news feed, and half the people like the most nonsensical crap like "if you love your grandma like, ignore if you want her to die." It's a meeting place for controversial topics too, and people are extremely unoriginal by copying what others have previously said like reposted screenshots of statuses etc. and they claim as their own. Facebook is also filled with "lms for ____" if Facebook wasnt needed for 3/4s of mobile games and other apps, it would lose 1/2 of its active users

News: Jay-Z Links W/ Timbaland, Buttons Up His "Suit & Tie" [Audio]
Monday, Jan 14, 2013 10:14AM
Rap mogul Jay-Z is helping singer Justin Timberlake make a triumphant comeback in nearly seven years with help from mega producer Timbaland for their "Suit and Tie" collaboration.
After some early buzz heated up the Internet last week, the threesome's new effort landed online Monday (January 14).
Mr. "SexyBack" is back. Justin Timberlake released his new single, "Suit and Tie," late Sunday night. It features rapper Jay-Z. The upbeat jam is the 31-year-old's first musical offering since 2006's critically acclaimed "FutureSex/LoveSounds." His third solo album, "The 20/20 Experience," will be out later this year. Timberlake co-wrote and co-produced "Suit and Tie" with Timbaland, who produced much of the Grammy-winning "FutureSex/LoveSounds." (Detroit Free Press)
Timberlake also issued a statement to accompany the new record via his website.
"The inspiration for this really came out of the blue and to be honest, I didn't expect anything out of it. I just went into the studio and started playing around with some sounds and songs. It was probably the best time I've had in my career... Just creating with no rules and/or end goal in mind and really enjoying the process. What I came up with is something I couldn't be more excited about! It is full of inspiration that I grew up listening to and some newfound muses that I've discovered along the way. I'm calling it "The 20/20 Experience," and it's coming out this year." (Justin Timberlake)
Heading into the weekend, JT hinted at something big dropping soon.
Prior to the Destiny's Child announcement, however, Justin Timberlake - full-time actor, part-time scatter cushion doyen and possibly the greatest male entertainer since Michael Jackson - tweeted: "Thursday, January 10th, 2013 at 9:01 am PST." While there was initial speculation that this was just something to do with MySpace (Timberlake is a stakeholder in the ailing social network), the tweet fuelled earlier rumours about his imminent return after a claim last year by producer Jim Bean that he was working on an unspecified "Justin Timberlake project" (it was then hastily denied). In the end Thursday's activity was little more than an internet tease, with a video showing the singer walking through a recording studio as a voiceover defends his six-year absence from music. At the end he turns to the camera, pops on his headphones and says, "I'm ready." (The Guardian)
This all comes months after he married longtime girlfriend/actress Jessica Biel overseas with Timbaland and other high-profile celebrities in attendance.
It's official! Justin Timberlake and Jessica Biel are married. Celebrating the pending nuptials with friends and family in southern Italy since Tuesday, the actor-singer and actress finally tied the knot in a Friday ceremony. On Wednesday, the group enjoyed cocktails and a fireworks display at beach club Cala Masciola ahead of the big day. (Los Angeles Times)

Tech Industry Report Finds Entertainment Industry Thriving Despite ComplaintsPublished on 27 January 2013 @ 8:41 pm
Intellectual Property Watch
A US technology industry report released Friday presents data showing that the entertainment industry has grown by 50 percent in the past decade with increased consumer spending, despite continuous calls by industry for greater protection of their intellectual property rights due to economic difficulty.
The Computer & Communications Industry Association (CCIA) commissioned the report [pdf] by Mike Masnick, a consultant who writes for publication Techdirt, who concluded that "we are living in a true Renaissance era for content." The study, entitled, "The Sky is Rising," was released at the MIDEM music business conference in Cannes.
Dramatic increases are documented in consumer spending, entertainment sector employment, movie box office revenues, worldwide entertainment industry value, music concert sales in the US, and choices for consumers globally.
"The numbers paint a quite a contrast from the vision of doom and gloom the entertainment industry has pointed to lately," CCIA President & CEO Ed Black said in a release. "Having a more clear picture of the economic successes and challenges of the content industry will help lawmakers around the world as they consider policies like increased copyright enforcement. We can hope future proposals will be more proportional to the scope of the problem and not designed to subtract from one industry's bottom line to potentially add to another industry's profits."

2011-2012 Programs
iPads are slate-style wireless computing devices with large screens, multi-touch displays, and the ability to run apps like an iPhone. They allow quick internet browsing, viewing photos and movies, listening to podcasts and music, reading e-books and other e-texts, and intuitive interactions with content from any of the hundreds of iPad applications available from the iTunes Store. Second generation iPads (iPad 2) have a camera which allows taking still photos and video, and participating in web conferences.
iPad Course Loaner Program
DDI has a pool of 20 Apple iPad 2s and 30 Apple iPad 1s for use in undergraduate courses in fall 2011 and spring 2012. Some iPads with 3G network capabilities are also available (network service not pre-paid).
NOTE: For fall 2011, most iPad 1s are already allocated, as of 8/25/2011, but applications that take special advantage of iPad 2 camera functionality are still being accepted.
Faculty who would like to apply to borrow these iPads should complete the appropriate application form. Note that faculty are STRONGLY encouraged to try out an iPad before submitting a request, via either CIT's short–term faculty loaner program, or the walk–up loaner program available at the Link (see below).
Link iPad Loaner Program
DDI is now offering a limited number of iPad 2s available for undergraduate students and faculty for 1 week, first come, first served, non-renewable loan from the Link Service Desk on Perkins Lower Level 1. Graduate students who are working in a teaching capacity (i.e., teaching a course or class section) and wish to explore the iPad for teaching purposes may also borrow one. Please visit the Link during normal Link hours to check out an iPad. These items are non-reservable and there is no waiting list.
Poll Everywhere
Poll Everywhere is a system that allows you to gather responses from a class in real time. Students use their own mobile phones or computers to answer questions you pose in class, and their responses are aggregated and displayed immediately—in PowerPoint, in Keynote or on the web.
You can use Poll Everywhere in classes with fewer than 30 students for free through their website. For larger classes, you can purchase a license, have your students purchase a license, or ask DDI to purchase a license for you.
DDI is supplying a few licenses to allow faculty to try out this service and to provide feedback to include with feedback we receive about clickers (personal response system) services on campus.
3-D Exploration
Continuing through the 2011-2012 AY, DDI will continue to investigate the feasibility of using new consumer 3-D displays and video cameras in courses and student projects. As part of this investigation, staff from the CIT and OIT's MPS Labs will contact faculty already using 3-D and "virtual worlds" applications to determine whether these computer-based applications can be used on consumer 3-D televisions. We'll also continue to spark imagination by displaying our 3-D 'Exploration Station', a 3-D-enabled television with educational content preloaded for viewing by the general public. In addition, they will evaluate the possible uses for consumer 3-D camcorders for student work at the university and models that would be compatible with displays being considered for purchase for the Link. We will also be looking into the various software suites for creating and manipulating 3-D media, to see how best to incorporate such software into the existing computer labs on campus. If you are interested in engaging in discussions on the use of 3-D displays and camcorders on campus, please contact DDI 3-D program team or visit our 3D Exploration page for more information

I posted this in the Saturday Night Game Thread but figure it might get a little more burn here.
Do you think adding sideline seats to get the fans closer to the playing surface would be a good idea at Doak? We could even get closer at the endzones. There's quite a bit of space there as well. The intention is not to "expand" the stadium or to necessarily make it louder. In my mind it's simply a fan experience thing. Being closer to the field would likely create more noise however, which wouldn't be an unwelcomed side effect. And I really don't see it adding that many seats, so while it would technically expand the stadium, I wouldn't label it as such. More like "renovations". I wouldn't say these are "needed" changes, but enhancements that in 5-10 years may be viewed as better than what we presently have.
Here's a picture of the current sideline space. Here's a picture of the current endzone space.
This would be the newer sideline and the newer endzone.
On the sideline picture I also "made" the Seminole head bigger, like we've now done on the basketball court (new basketball court) and I think we should look at making the "bedsheets" that display our accolades into a solid wall on either side of the relatively new speaker box while still displaying our accolades, of course. I just think the sheet is incredibly tacky and low budget. During day games, at least when I was in the student section, and would look up, I could see right through it and could not read the accomplishments at all. And some camera guy would cut out a hole in it anyways for a clean view. No more of that, please.
In the endzone view I not only made the front row stands closer but also the band's section as well. Would only seem fair to keep them the same distance as previously by just extending that center section an equivalent amount. You would do the same with the tunnel above the student section as well.
I'm not sure how many rows would be added by getting the fans closer to the field (maybe 10 rows at midfield and 10 in the endzone?) or how many feet the field would have to be lowered to accommodate said rows. I'm not sure about the water table or "flooding" issues, but I'd imagine a good drainage system would take care of most rain runoff concerns.
Also, some people suggested awning type structures like this and this to increase crowd noise. Good ideas. Oregon and Washington use them. I just don't think they're feasible with Doak's press boxes and suites. And harper.rb had said he was told by an engineer (see Night Game Thread) that when Doak was renovated in the 90's that it was set up to accommodate an upper deck if there was future expansion. I assume that goes for expanding the seating at the Northwest/Moore Center endzone also to completely fill in the bowl. Again, though, my idea isn't that of expansion, but figure stuff like that will be mentioned anyways, so that's my little fyi from harper.rb.
And we could always discuss the underbelly of Doak (concessions, lighting, restrooms, entertainment, etc.), but, alas, I have no pictures of that and my MS Paint skills aren't advanced enough yet to provide quality blue prints for improvement.
Anyways, thoughts?

It's something you may need to do as a requirement of your job: bring home a company car. But if you park in a residential area, doing so could break a city ordinance in Sioux Falls if it has certain properties.
Working for a plumbing company, Kyle Vrondran brings his work truck home every night from his job.
"It's a privilege for me to drive my work truck to and from my job site which is in Brandon. I save gas money by getting to take it home. It's a perk of the job," said Vrondran.
He finds it surprising to learn that doing such a thing would violate a Sioux Falls zoning ordinance. Despite that, it does fall under the definition of a commercial vehicle.
"We define a commercial vehicle in one of two ways. One, by the amount of signage that's on a vehicle and also if it's been structurally altered to serve a commercial purpose in some way," said zoning enforcement manager Shawna Goldammer.
The amount of signage needed to qualify as a commercial vehicle is sixteen square feet. Goldammer says they rely on neighbors to report violations and don't go driving around looking for them. She says there are ways around violating the ordinance.
"You may be able to be close to a commercial parking lot and you may be able to work out something with the business owner that you can park the vehicle there when you're on call," said Goldammer.
Goldammer says you also may be able to take off some of the signage so it doesn't violate the ordinance.
Vrondran says he's brought his work truck home for five years now and has never had a complaint, so he's going to keep brining it home.
"This is in front of my home. Who's it hurting? If I'm okay with it, what's the problem?" said Vrondran.
If you're caught parking a commercial vehicle at home, zoning enforcement officers will let you know of the violation. They are re-working the zoning laws right now, so there is a chance for you to have some input on this.

BET plans to reboot Showtime At the Apollo!
A deal is reportedly being worked out that will see pilot air on the network for the long-running variety show (which ended its 21-year run in 2008) revived with Jamie Foxx executive producing; the goal being to eventually run it as a prime-time series on the cable network.
The show's original director Don Weiner will also serve as producer.
No word on whether this reboot will retain the show's old format, or if it'll be revamped as well.
Who's excited? :)
Dankwa Brooks | May 17, 2011 10:38 AM
Well SATA was American Idol before American Idol, here's betting they add some judges, but I hope the IN HOUSE audiience is the final decider. No phone in or text votes please. Please keep the CORE of what made SATA SATA they New York audience!
Also PLEASE no Jamie Foxx. Nice chap and all, but how low would he be devaluing his brand by hosting this show. There are a TON of black comedians that could use the break of a high profile gig like this.
Lynn | May 16, 2011 8:45 AM
Hmmm...That's all i gotta say i do miss Showtime @ the Apollo but bringing it back i dunno what to say.

Women's lacrosse falls to nationally ranked Florida
Related Links
Ellyn Spangenberg and Chelsea Watts each scored two goals for JU, but it wasn't enough as the Dolphins fell, 18-9, to No. 17 Florida on Wednesday evening at the Ashley Sports Complex.
Florida's Kitty Cullen scored four goals on six shots and Caroline Chesterman added a hat trick off the bench to improve the Gators to 1-1. Watts, a freshman, netted the first two goals of her collegiate career but the Dolphins still dropped to 1-1.
JU went down early before storming back to tie the contest at 1 just 2:12 in. But the Gators surged to an 11-0 run en route to building a 13-3 halftime lead. Cullen scored all four of her goals in the opening half to lift Florida to the early edge.
Spangenberg provided an early bright spot for the Dolphins, scoring two of its three first half goals. That marked the second straight two-goal game for the sophomore middie following her performance in JU's season-opening win over Cincinnati.
Watts registered her first career goal at the 4:17 mark of the first half, tallying an unassisted marker to cut Florida's lead to 10 goals before the break. The first-year middie then recorded her first multi-goal game when she added a free position strike at 13:38 of the second half.
But Florida utilized a mixture of a quick scoring strikes and patient offensive set-ups to run-down the clock in the second half. Caroline Cochran scored three goals as six Gators finished with multiple goals. Janine Hillier, Colby Rhea and Brittany Dashiell each chipped in two goals for Florida.
JU out-scored Florida, 6-5, in the second half in trying to mount a comeback. The Dolphins scored six free position goals on 13 opportunities. Nicole Albino, Melissa Jaworski, Amanda Hurley and Nikki Erdely also scored for the Dolphins.
After a one-day respite, JU will be back in action to close out a three-game homestand when it faces Denver on Friday at 4 p.m. The game will be played at D.B. Milne Field.

Equestrian centre now one of the biggest after rapid expansion
Updated 3:11pm Thursday 9th January 2014 in News
AN equestrian centre near Ringwood has undergone a rapid expansion and is now one of the biggest in the region.
Some 16 new stables have been built at Parley Equestrian Centre – bringing the number to almost 70.
An indoor school and an all-weather showjumping arena are also planned for the centre, which is run by Jane Wyatt, who has led two horses to victory in the Horse of the Year Show.
The centre now has more than 100 horses, including 93 full, grass and DIY liveries, and holds regular showjumping and dressage events throughout the year.

The thing about fall is, the fish just keep getting bigger every day. No wonder it's my favorite time of year.
It's a great time to chase trout in lakes. Pushed deep by warm surface temperatures during summer, trout begin cruising the shallows again. Now is when those 7- to 10-pound holdovers come out to play, and it's not unusual to catch your biggest brown or rainbow of the year on a big suspending bait worked parallel to shore.
Fall is the best time to hunt muskies. Big pike, too. Some come in from the depths, some move out from the shallows, they meet on the deep weed edges and rocky breaks in a festival of teeth.
The biggest smallmouths in the system, the ones that weren't biting all that well in August, are suddenly jumping in the boat.
Bruiser walleyes come stalking through the shallows at night, where thinning weeds offer less cover for all those nervous baitfish.
Largemouth bass congregate on deep weedlines in natural lakes and I look forward to cranking up my biggest specimens of the year in October.
Bluegills and crappies are totally overlooked this time of year.
October is a roller coaster. You're better off settling in on one species, following them through the condition changes and learning their movements. If you can figure out how to make yourself do that, drop me a note and tell me how.

Since launching Roseville Patch, I haven't done much writing about myself, but I wanted to let you all in on some exciting news at the Gibbs household: We're having a baby!
It's surreal to think that in about 6 months, I'll have a little Roseville Patch sidekick.
My husband Alex and I married in October 2009 and since day 1 of being a married couple, we became somewhat experts in answering the "When are you having kids?" question.
Having kids was something Alex and I talked about before we got married and knew a family would be in our future. We just didn't know exactly when.
Just a few weeks after we celebrate our third wedding anniversary, we'll be welcoming Baby Gibbs into the world. Our baby is due around Halloween.
I won't share all the details about how we found out we were expecting, but it was a moment in my life I will never forget. The moment started as disbelief, followed by tears of happiness and complete shock.
"Ready or not, we're having a baby," Alex and I kept telling each other.
Is a couple ever really ready for the life changes that come with a baby? Probably not.
Some friends of ours who have a 2-year-old daughter offered one piece of advice leading up until baby's arrival: Enjoy life just the two of you.
So until the end of October, that's exactly what Alex and I will be doing. We'll take advantage of our quiet house, kid-free date nights and last-minute vacations.
We've had a few months for the baby news to fully sink in — it's becoming even more real as my baby bump is starting to make its debut — and we could not be more excited!
What advice do you have for enjoying the pregnancy before baby arrives? I'd love to hear your ideas!

PPV:Marquez vs. Diaz II:9PM(ET), 8PM(CT), 6PM(PT)
FightHype Community

Jul 31 2010, 09:49 AM
For all action and reactions to the big fight tonight. Keep everything in this thread.
Jul 31 2010, 11:58 AM
I think Marquez takes this fight with even more ease this time. Don't get me wrong, it will be an action packed fight, but I see Marquez controlling the action more in the early rounds. Diaz really didn't look that good in the Malignaggi fights, and seems to get cut about every fight. I don't even know how much Diaz has left, but I think Marquez still has a lot. He's looked good in the recent years besides the Mayweather fight. He's down at his natural weight class, so I think he'll be a bit faster and stronger. Plus, Diaz is nowhere near Mayweather's level in skill and defense. Marquez will be too skillful and strong for Diaz. I expect him to stop him around the 8th round again.
The undercard looks great. I think the European will be a little too skillful for Jacobs. Jacobs had some problems with Ishe Smith and Mike Walker. We'll see if he's ready to step it up tonight, but I expect him to lose a decision. Guerrero-Casamayor is an interesting scrap as well. If Casamayor has anything left, he wins this fight. Guerrero hasn't looked that great in the last year, but Casamayor hasn't really fought in the prior year. I thought Casamayor looked excellent in the early rounds against Marquez a couple years back. If that Casamayor shows up, he easily wins. Guerrero won't wear him down like Marquez, just not his style. I think this will be an ugly fight, and Casamayor will win a super close decision. Really, it's a toss up fight.
Juarez-Linares is a joke and not worth discussing. As already discussed, it's ridiculous how Juarez get so many bigger fights. Before the card starts though, Mendy-Bika is a solid fight. Mendy won that super middleweight tourney Showtime put on awhile back. Bika has put on some good performances against Codrington and Bute. Both these fighters are kind of unknown, so it'll be interesting. I remember Mendy having good speed and power. I think he's faster than Bika, and that will play a factor. I expect him to win a decision. In the first fight, Ronnie Peterson fights Frankie Gomez I think. Peterson is from Minnesota, and I've trained with his Dad before. His Dad actually said he wasn't fighting anymore, and that he gained weight. We'll see what happens I wish him the best.

Young George Groves is worth a look too Kyle. IMO prob one of the best if not the best prospect wev got on this side of the pond.
Iv probably jinxed him now and he'l stink the place up! But hopefully not. Worth a look anyway if your watching
Jul 31 2010, 12:47 PM
I'm not sure if he's on the televised card or the two fights? I'll definitely give him a look though on youtube later and check some fights out. Hopefully he gets on tonight and puts on a good show.
Jack 1000
Jul 31 2010, 02:54 PM
My take on the undercard:
It's very good. Probably the best for an undercard in several years to compensate for an HBO type main event. The matches appear to be pretty even.
On Guerrero-Casamayor, I think Cassa is getting too old and that "The Ghost" wins. I think Cassa will make things ugly and dirty but in an entertaining sort of way.
Jacobs vs. Prog should be just about pick-em
Linares-Juarez: Juarez just in there for a payday like he has been in recent years. He acts like he doesn't care.
It's a long way from the great Don King Undercards of the 90's that were amazing. But it is still better than the slop we have been getting.
Is there any of the fights where we could see "Golden Boy" favoritism on the scorecards?
Mean Mister Mustard
Jul 31 2010, 03:15 PM
Linares probably puts on a boxing clinic against Juarez. The only suspense in this fight is whether Juarez can land that left hook of his and KO the Venezuelan. Remember that it was a left hook that led to Linares's only loss.
Guerrero is a very good fighter, he can box, outwork you and he has pretty good pop in those fists of his. Cassamayor is a wily tricky wizard but he's almost 40 isn't he? I think he gets outworked in this one.
I don't know anything about the Commie that Jacobs is facing but ,according to Doug Fisher, he can counter well enough to make it an interesting fight.
As to the main event, JMM is one of my favorite fighters and seeing him back in the ring is good enough for me.
Jul 31 2010, 05:20 PM
This is such a BS PPV..Who is buying this??I seriously don't think I can..It's not worth it at all..The only fight I really wanna see is Guerrero and Casamayor..I'm starting to think that this is a PPV because Marquez got his ass BEAT on PPV against Mayweather and now Mayweather gave Marquez a name..It's BS..Marquez should of had a name back when he was fighting Pac-man and others around that time but it was Barrera and Morales' who were the mexican stars,not Marquez unfortunately..He got screwed,but now is not the time for him to be in the main even on a PPV after he just got dominated by Mayweather..Marquez/Diaz??SHIT!!!!
Jul 31 2010, 06:04 PM
Where are the two free fights on DirecTv? I thought Golden Boy was going to show the Bika fight WTF.

The Casamayor fight was hard to watch since he looked so old. A prime Casamayor would have eaten Guerrero alive. He put up a decent effort though, but I hope that's Casa's last fight too.
Jul 31 2010, 10:03 PM
Where the fuck were you CEO. You missed Leonard Yesserbe chimin in with Floyd's favorite grade of gasoline.

Jul 31 2010, 10:33 PM
Jacobs WHO?
LOL TKO in 5 by a NO body.
Aug 1 2010, 12:12 AM
Marquez looked really sharp tonight. Diaz came to win, and he didn't look that bad either. Marquez is just a level above Diaz, and that showed in the middle rounds. I felt Marquez won rounds 3-9, and Diaz did nothing in there. He finished really strong though, and I felt he won rounds 10-12. He finally picked up the pace, and it seemed Marquez got tired. It wasn't as action-packed this time around, but overall it was a good fight.
That Pirog-Jacobs fight was KO of the year. Pirog really nailed Jacobs and he just went right down. After the way Jacobs looked against Smith and Walker, I felt he would have a tough night. Tough luck for Casamayor too. He just isn't the same, but he still dropped Guerrero. Hopefully that 10th round will be the last hurrah of a great career, and he'll walk away. He was always a tough dude, and he wouldn't go away against Guerrero. Juarez lost again, big surprise lol.
Aug 1 2010, 01:00 AM
Marquez looked good i see him still being able to beat every LW around right now but he should definitly stay away from Manny.
As for Jacobs one word WOW.
Aug 1 2010, 02:49 AM
Diaz fought a smarter fight, but it just wasn't enough. With law school in his future, I think Diaz should retire from boxing, and focus on his academics.
135 is the right weight for Marquez. He can make some good fights with Soto and Guerrero. He could probably do 140 too, but it would be a little harder. Fights with Maidana and Ortiz would be intense. Fights with Bradley, Khan, and Alexander would be tough.

Did anyone else start to get the impression that maybe JMM might be struggling to pull the trigger now? I hope im wrong.
Also, does anyone know who the guy with the Jersey Shore T shirt on sitting 2 to the right of Oscar was? It was fuckin comedy watching him!

This was the only fight that I was interested in..
I'm a fan of both..Guerrero took a big step up in the name game but Casa was old..I'd always watch either one of these guys fight though..Guerrero is one of my favorite fighters today and I wish I had gotten to see him fight Casa but I was not willing to pay 50 for such a BS main event on a PPV card..Sounds like they had it the other way around on this card,good undercard and a less than worthy main event(for a PPV)..Diaz/Marquez should be a main event fight but not on a PPV..
Aug 1 2010, 07:36 PM
QUOTE (Fitz @ Aug 1 2010, 05:12 PM)
Guerrero beat Casamayor, but Guerrero wasn't good in doing so. How could he have an old fighter in there, he hurt him from the opening round and dropped him in the second and then continue to just go through the motions and take him the distance? Guerrero could have had Casa out there early, when ever he landed cleanly, Casa was hurt. He didn't apply pressure and ended up making it a safe fight. They are the fights where you make them look old.
Diaz-Marquez was a good fight IMO. I thought Diaz looked decent as well, but Marquez is in a league of his own. Just way too good. Diaz put up a solid performance and nothing to be ashamed of, but Marquez is just better than him in every way.
Shit,Guerrero probably watched the first Corrales fight and Katsidis fight and decided that Casa is always a threat..You can hurt and drop Casa but he has a nasty punch that can turn a fight around..Shit,he punched a mouth guard through Corrales' lip..hahaha..He has serious power..Whether Casa is old or not,he has the punch..It's sad to see Casa in the position he is in now but his age caught up to him..I was hoping Casa would retire after the Marquez loss or after the fight after that that he actually won..

Now? It's been like that since the first Diaz fight...his legs are going too.
In fact, if he fights Katsidis, I lean toward MK.
Aug 1 2010, 11:44 PM
Good showing for JMM but he's definitely fading a bit. Being back at a more acceptable weight serves him well. I NEVER want to see him over 135 again.
Aug 2 2010, 12:24 AM
QUOTE (Fitz @ Aug 1 2010, 07:49 PM)
I would love to see Katsidis-Marquez. Katsidis has been his mandatory for some time. I think Katsidis has done enough to fight for the undisputed titles. Would really love to see that fight happen.
Katsidis is a warrior and that'd be a hell of a fight..
lloyd mayflower
Aug 2 2010, 05:45 AM
Yep, if people would just fight their mandatories we would get Khan v Maidana, and Marquez v Katsidis. Instead we will probably get Khan v Marquez.
As for Katsidis, I like him, I love his gameness. He comes to fight. I think JMM would land a shitload of leather on him tho. Obviously JMM would have to take a bit too, but I reckon he could weather the storm that Katsdis brings. At this stage tho, i'd only be maybe 60/40 in favour of JMM.
If he has to pass the torch, id like to see him passing it to Kats, then we'll get to see him in plenty of big fights
Aug 2 2010, 10:39 AM
Just got a chance to watch the Pirog - Jacobs fight in full. Pirog definitely has skills to become really good but he's FAR from perfect. LMAO at that being KO of the Year... usually a KO of the Year ends with the opponent motionless for several minutes. call me crazy but i think Jacobs could have continued. He was on his way up at 6 and looked fully aware of what was going on. Anyways, he would have likely been stopped eventually.
Aug 2 2010, 04:43 PM
I think Diaz really gave a LOT to guys that will step in with JMM next....
JMM looked really tired as hell to me in the last 3 rounds....as a matter of fact I gave 10-12 to Diaz. I think the combination of his age and the recent wars and the move up and back down in wieght is having a huge impact on JMM.
If he gets in with the right guy....a guy that can hold off on getting into the slug action and make him go into the later rounds I could see him losing to a younger guy simply due to being tired by the 9th round or so.
I mean look at what Diaz was able to do to his face and Diaz is NOT a power puncher....if he was in with Katsidis...and Katsidis could take him into the later rounds....I think a hard puncher could get the win.

Salmon expansion possible in Columbia River talks
Third Power Plant at Grand Coulee Dam. Columbia Basin Project, WA. June 28, 1967. Photo: Image by US Bureau of Reclamation, Pacific NW Region
SPOKANE, Wash. (AP) -- Salmon could one day return to areas above the massive Grand Coulee Dam.
The Spokesman-Review reports that the issue of salmon passage has resurfaced as officials explore the renegotiation of the Columbia River Treaty. Tribes in the Northwest and First Nations in Canada have long sought the restoration of salmon habitat above the 550-foot-high Grand Coulee.
The 1964 Columbia River Treaty focuses on hydropower and flood control. Officials in the United States are interested in expanding the treaty's purpose to also address issues such as salmon and climate change.
The Grand Coulee Dam was built in the 1930s without fish ladders, halting salmon runs to the Upper Columbia River.

New Media, Sex, and Culture in the 21st Century
at The Museum of New Art (MONA)

The New Media, Sex, and Culture in the 21st Century
Sex has a long history of being subjected to technologies of observation, regulation, enhancement, and representation. Certainly many of the discourses and technologies of the Internet have been preoccupied with it, even though the U.S. government and other groups have tried to make it harder for people to find sex online. One of the messages of the "cyberporn scare" of the mid to late 1990s in the U.S. was: It's here, and it's bad! But in the drawn-out process of letting everybody know about it, online porn became somewhat normalized.
As Internet-researcher Nielsvan Doorn argues, "pornography has been involved in a 'mainstreaming' process over the past decade...simultaneously, the public discourse on sex and sexuality has grown exponentially."
Foucault observes how sundry discourses of sexuality espouse a veil of silence and prudishness towards sex while at the same time positioning people to seek knowledge about it, observe it and talk about it.
The rhetoric of the cyberporn scare asked society to wall up and hide pornography, but ended up forcing people to accept it and engage it more directly, whether it is to talk about it, joke about it, actively seek it, or actively avoid it.
Web2.0 publishing tools and social media networks have made it easier for people to publically talk about sex and to publish their own sex online for anyone to see.
Scholars and artists who explore many such aspects of online pornography, sexual identities in today's society, femininity, masculinity, desire, pleasure, family politics, liberation and repression, prostitution, sexual violence, and other topics are featured in the MONA's upcoming exhibition "New Media, Sex, and Culture in the 21st Century."
