SELMA, Ala. (AP) — Concordia College assistant football coach Reginald Lumpkin says none of his players were injured when their team bus blew a tire and caught fire.
Lumpkin tells the Selma Times-Journal the team was on its way to a game against Miles College Saturday when a tire blew out on Alabama Highway 219, north of Selma.
Patrick Essex, of the East Perry Volunteer Fire Department, told the newspaper a fire began on the rear driver's side of the bus, which was destroyed by the blaze.
Lumpkin said no one on the bus was injured, but most of the equipment the bus was carrying was destroyed.
The team's game against Miles was canceled.

FUN is Far More than Meets the Eye!
Pre-School Classes
One of the objectives of our classes is FUN! Of course, this is cool with the kids but parents sometimes fail to realize the importance of fun in a learning setting. People often feel that when fun is present, learning is not. Nothing could be farther from the truth. Why is fun so important? Well adjusted learners form an early and lifelong subconscious association defining any attempt to learn something new challenge = risk = learning = fun!
The physical mental skills developed in our classes are vitally important to all aspects of a growing child's' life, they will use what they learn at our gym for the rest of their lives. OK, now that you know a little more about the goals and substance of our program we have a favor to ask you...just don't tell the kids they think gymnastics is just PURE FUN!
Parent Tot (1.5 to 3 years old)
A playful, parent/tot class centered around age appropriate developmental movements. Has a strong emphasis on socialization skills and group involvement. Parents should be ready to get physical and involved in the class! Please dress to work out! This will be the ONLY person allowed in the gym with the child during the class. You cannot switch parents from class to class.
Teeny Tumblers ( 3 - 4 years old)
No parents needed here! There are mountains to climb, canyons to jump, vines to swing and tramps to jump on. More physically challenging skills give kids stronger bodies and sharper minds as well as a clearer understanding of their bodies' capabilities and limitations. Teaches kids a challenge is FUN. Classes may be mixed boys and girls based on enrollment.
Kinder Kids ( 4 - 5 years old)
This age group is really beginning to step out and MOVE and it is essential that their physical challenges be monitored for safety yet their attempts must be rewarded. This way the 'perceived risks' are seen as exciting challenges and the 'failed attempts' are seen for what they are - an OK, normal piece of the learning puzzle. Kinder Kids are able to handle a class that is more skill-oriented so, as the year moves along we challenge the kids with progressively more 'beginner skills' and less 'general movement'. This way we prepare the child, physically and mentally, for our skill development classes. Still FUN? ABSOLUTELY...just watch them!

Thousands of Gwinnett County residents carried on a tradition Monday morning by attending the annual Dacula Memorial Day Parade. A rider-less horse represented the war dead, followed by people carrying photos of loved ones they've lost in Iraq, Afghanistan and beyond. The community is proud of its veterans, and the use the annual event to show it. "We were fortunate enough to visit Washington, D.C. during spring break and we were able to explain a lot of history behind Arlington….We took the kids, so now it makes more sense to them to see the pictures of those soldiers that have passed away and now they understand" said Charlene Savage of Lawrenceville.A Memorial Day festival continued in downtown Dacula on Monday afternoon.

NEW YORK (AP) -- A 1969 painting by Francis Bacon has sold for over $142 million in New York, a record for most expensive artwork ever sold at auction.
"Three Studies of Lucian Freud" was sold at Christie's postwar and contemporary art sale on Tuesday night. The work depicts Bacon's artist friend.
The price tops the nearly $120 million paid for Edvard Munch's "The Scream," which set a world record when it was sold at a Sotheby's 2012.

If you are driving through Olive ranch, Miss., the next week, you will need to give yourself several extra minutes if you travel across Highway 305.
Highway 305, one of the main arteries in town, has been shut down for the next eight days for a drainage and widening project.
Traffic near the road project is being rerouted through the neighborhood by Olive Branch Middle School then back out onto Highway 305. Crews are putting drainage pipes under the existing road. Highway 305 is also being widened by several lanes.
Mayor Scott Phillips is asking motorists to be patient during the roadwork, which is expected to last through July 26. Another drainage improvement will take place between July 18-26 at the old power company near the Brantley Funeral Home and Cockrum Road.
The complete widening project between Highway 78 and Old Goodman will be complete by May 29, 2014, weather permitting.

This was a very enjoyable trip. I had no complaints with Vantage. Everything was smooth sailing. Flights and tours were perfect. Trip started in Cologne and went thru Germany, Austria, Czech Republic, Vienna and Hungary. Dress was casual. Weather in November was cool- mid 30's-40"s, a little rainy, but overall, not too bad. Food on the cruise was excellent. The tour guides were knowledgeable and very helpful. Never seen so many cobblestones in all my life. I am 82 and was capable of keeping up on the tours.
3 levels on river boat, but I was upgraded to top level. Top level was very nice. All modern US accommodations for everything in each room(WiFi etc.) plus computers were available in a business center. Entertainment on cruise was good, but not extravagant. Excellent storage in room and climate control also in room. Also, flat screen t.v.
This is a new ship built in 2013.

Mystery of the wandering Pendennis cockerel solved (From Falmouth Packet)

Mystery of the wandering Pendennis cockerel solved
Updated 5:27pm Tuesday 25th June 2013 in News By Greg Fountain, Ex-Reporter/Photographer
The secret identity of the Falmouth Christmas cockerel, featured in the Packet last week, can now be revealed.
Spotted on Pendennis Point by Packet reader Neil Dishington, who took the picture (above) just before Christmas, the lone cockerel has baffled passersby after he seemingly took up residence at the popular beauty spot.
Despite his fine feathers earning him the affectionate "nom de plume" Rocky the Rooster, his real name is actually Dennis (after Pendennis) said owner Jim Sargison.
"He's our cockerel," Jim said, "and it all started off at the end of November."
Dennis made good his escape from Jim's brother's van while being transported to their field near Redruth.
He disappeared into the undergrowth on Pendennis Point and has been living there ever since - although the brothers have made several attempts to catch the "flighty" bird.
"The makeshift pen people have seen is actually a trap, and it worked well, we did catch him but he got out again," Jim said.
The brothers left out food and water for Dennis and tried a variety of methods to recapture him, but to no avail.
Even Dorris the hen, who was tethered nearby to try and entice the confounding cockerel back into captivity, could not keep Dennis entertained for long and ended up being handed in to Rosemullion Vets by a well meaning dog walker.
"She was there to try and coax Dennis out of the bushes," Jim said. "But someone untethered her and took her away."
After more than a month of evading capture, it has come to the point where Jim is considering granting Dennis his freedom.
"He's loving it," he said, "every time I pull up near there there's been a few cars and hundreds of people must know about him by now."
A "large bird of prey" has been spotted harassing Dennis, but "he has been evading it well," Jim said on Monday.
"I have not seen him for a couple of days though. I'm hoping he hasn't been eaten."

Stars gathered at the Beverly Hilton Hotel in California this afternoon for the 83rd Academy Awards nominations luncheon.
Michelle Williams arrived wearing a Chanel Spring 2010 look.
Her look consisted of a black silk blouse and tweed skirt which she paired with a very conservative pair of black pumps.
Luncheon's aren't known for being very dressy affairs, so this look is event appropriate.
My only problem is that this look seems to age her a little bit.
One can look formal and still their age, but Michelle doesn't strike the right balance.
On the plus side I really like the new rich blonde hair colour.

The worst thing happened to me today, you guys. My iPhone froze. It was the black screen of death, and it wasn't coming back. No silver apple, no rainbow wheel of purgatory ... just deathy blackness.
It was a rough day until I made my way to the genius bar this afternoon to get it diagnosed and fixed. You know when you realize how much you use your cellphone? When it stops working, that's when.
If you've been watching the news lately, you'll have heard rumors of the the fabled Apple iWatch. It can do it all! It has a curved screen! It can sense your blood pressure! It's powered by the sun! It will make phone calls! It will change your life!
What is the Apple iWatch and why should you care about products like it? Well, wearables like the iWatch are pretty amazing. They can already sense your heartbeat, your blood oxygen level, and your temperature. They can tell you how you're sleeping and where you've been. They can gauge how fast you're running and how great you are at weightlifting.
But what does it mean when we hear that Apple is trying to break into the wearables market? And what do we really know about the iWatch?
Have you ever handed your iPhone to your kid to occupy them for a bit while you got some work done, did the dishes, or hid in the bathroom with a chocolate bar and a gossip magazine? And then been horrified that your little munchkin somehow got into the app store and charged an arm and a leg that you were then responsible for?
You may be off the hook. Apple has agreed to pay back $32.5 million in unauthorized purchases to the app store. You know, like the ones made to "Dragon Story" and "Tiny Zoo Friends."
How's that Polar Vortex treating you? Are you frozen solid yet? How many layers of clothing are you wearing? Did you give up altogether and wear ski clothes to the office? Is blood still circulating in your fingertips, or have they become useless on touchscreens?
It might not matter if your fingers are too cold to work your smartphone anyway, since apparently they hate the cold as much as us humans. Just like us, iPhones in freezing temps are drained of their energy much more quickly than when at comfortable temps, and if it gets too cold, they just shut down completely.
Flip phone users of the world, unite! How many of you are out there? Nine? Ten people reading this? Well, count me in as a usually ashamed proud old school phone user who refuses to update to a smartphone. Ah, but today I've never felt better about my decision to live like it's 1997. It turns out my chances of being robbed are close to nil -- thanks to my crappy phone. A 25-year-old man was walking with a friend through Central Park in New York City when an armed robber threatened to kill him if he didn't turn over his possessions. When the man produced a flip phone, the mugger basically rolled his eyes, threw the phone back at the man in a huff, and stormed off.
As the proud owner of a house full of toys and electronics, I know a thing or two about how to keep the cruft to a minimum and the cool stuff in top shape. Here are a few tips before you finish your holiday shopping.
1. Do a quick web search before you buy. It's probably obvious, but visit Amazon before you pick something up in the store -- not for the price but for the reviews. Take the toilet/iPad stand above, for example. I can imagine a number of confused aunts and uncles delivering these to our domiciles thinking that they're a good idea. In fact, they're the worst toy of the year and if you read the Amazon reviews you'd discover why.
This might be the coolest, or creepiest, thing you'll see all day! Take a look at Morgan Freeman pictured here. You'd immediately think it's just a photograph, right? Nope! It's actually a super realistic rendition of him ... finger-painted on an iPad.
That's right, Kyle Lambert, an "iPad artist," produced a video of how he painstakingly finger-painted this image of the famous actor on his iPad. Of course, everyone agrees that the only thing missing from this video is Freeman's iconic voice narrating it. But come on, this artistic and technological feat is still simply incredible.
Our tablets go with us everywhere, so we should take their cases into serious fashion consideration. The best tablet cases provide just as much style as they do protection for your most cherished gadget. Plus, switching it up with bright and colorful cases, like this hot pink tablet envelope (Marc Jacobs, $88), can make your tablet feel like new time and time again. Match your iPad case to your purse or even your outfit — we totally get it!
Over at The Prowl, we searched high and low for glam cases that may steal the show from your sleek and shiny iPad. Check out this preview of our favorite chic iPad cases, and then head over to The Prowl to see the rest!
I have this Facebook "friend." We'll call her Anne. Anne is a stylish, beautiful adult woman who commutes by train each day to work. Lately, it seems, every one of her days is plagued by the offensive odors and appearances of others. She simply can't handle it when a woman wears clogs, and she seems ready to call the police the second a poor, hungry soul so much as takes out an unwrapped sandwich on the train.
How do I know all this? Because she doesn't just rant about it on her Facebook page -- she also provides photographic proof. In other words, she'll snap your photo if she doesn't like you and splash it all over her page for the world to see and mock. It may be legal to do this, but that doesn't keep it from being a totally tacky thing to do.
We already know the selfie has gotten out of control. What used to serve as a whimsical way for, mostly teens, to show the world how much they love themselves and their duck faces has quickly become a way of documenting every single situation in which they've ever been involved in their lives, including scenarios that require you to, ideally, BE in the moment. Like...maybe...Monday's lockdown at Central Connecticut State? Yes, thanks to technology, students were actually able to post selfies during the emergency (which, thankfully, turned out to be a false alarm), even giving them the nifty hashtag #LockDownSelfie.
But before you chastise these young folks, consider this: the selfie may just be helping these teens deal with stress, trauma, and uncomfortable life experiences. And I can think of at least five more situations where you should not be shocked to see a selfie.

The move is a huge blow to what was touted as a game-changing discovery.
With the seeds available online, this will be the biggest release of a genetically engineered plant into the world.
The patient's own T-cells are genetically altered to recognize cancer so they can attack and kill it.
The virus increases the surface area of the wire, which in turn increases the area where electrochemical activity takes place.
Microscopic particles embedded in DNA insert bone-producing instructions into cells.
In the future, the genetic information could be taken into space to help establish animal populations on future colonies.

Michigan State Gymnastics Readies for Big Ten Championships
March 28, 2008
Head Coach Kathie Klages' Weekly Press Confernce
EAST LANSING, Mich. - The Michigan State gymnastics team enters the championship portion of its schedule this weekend with the Big Ten Championships held inside Crisler Arena on the campus of the University of Michigan on Saturday afternoon at 2 p.m.
The Spartans dropped two spots to No. 17 in the latest GymInfo national ranking with a Regional Qualifying Score (RQS) of 195.560 and a team average of 194.815. The numbers also rank MSU fourth in the Central region (trailing No. 5 LSU, No. 6 Alabama and No. 13 Auburn).
MSU, enters the weekend ranked second in the Big Ten with a 195.560 RQS, trailing Michigan (196.825). Following the Michigan schools are Iowa (195.200), Penn State (195.045), Minnesota (194.885), Illinois (194.810) and Ohio State (194.405).
Michigan State is in the top 25 nationally in each event. The Spartans have their highest RQS on the vault with a 49.065 to stand in 14th and are 15th on the beam with a 49.000 RQS. They are tied for 17th on the bars with a 48.880 and currently are 27th on the floor at 48.865. Among Big Ten foes, the Spartans are second on the vault, beam and bars, while in the region, they are third on bars and fourth on both the vault and beam. MSU is fifth in the Big Ten and sixth in the Central on the floor.
Each one of the 13 Spartans who have appeared in the competitive lineup this season have placed among the top-three in at least one event. MSU has totaled 95 top-three individual finishes so far, with 63 coming from the talented sophomore class. Sophomore Nicole Curler leads the way with 24 podium finishes, followed by sophomore Rochelle Robinson (21) and junior Katlyn Roggensack (11).
The Spartans have also seen seven student-athletes win or share an individual title in 2008. MSU has 34 individual finish place finishes, led by 12 from Robinson and nine from Curler. Again, the sophomore class accounts for 26 of the 34 wins.
The Spartans have never won the Big Ten Championships, but had finished second on eight occasions, most recently in 2006. In the 26 year history of the championship, the Spartans have 14 top-three team finishes. Their best team score came in 2004, when they tallied a 196.025, only one of two times that the Spartans have topped 195 at Big Tens.
In addition to the team success, nine Spartans have been crowned Big Ten champions, since the conference began recognizing the sport in 1982. Most recently, Chayla Hill won the vault in 2006, the lone MSU champion since 1996.
MSU finished seventh at last year's championships with a score of 192.650. Rochelle Robinson tied for second on vault, as the top individual finisher for the Spartans. Michigan won its 15th championship with a team score of 196.575.

For the second time in as many days, police said a troubled relationship had ended in death. A Gautier woman, 23 year old Amanda Fallon Perkins was stabbed to death in her home in the overnight hours. In jail, the man police described as off and on her boyfriend.
Yellow Crime scene tape is still scattered around Amanda Perkins' Home in the Ocean Estates Subdivision in Gautier. Police said early Wednesday morning the 23-year-old was stabbed to death. Her neighbors, who woke up to the sad news couldn't believe what they heard.
"We have never had anything like this before. This has been a safe neighborhood," neighbor Devin Flowers said.
"I am just upset we never even met the people that were there," said Melissa Flowers.
Devin and Melissa Flowers live a few doors down from the crime scene.They said although they didn't know the victim, they hate this tragedy happened here.
"It is just really shocking and scary actually."
Police said they were responding to an assault call at Perkins' home when they walked in and found her dead. They got a tip to start looking for her boyfriend Marius Markee Kirkland.
"They were on again and off again as it has been romantic relationship that involved children they shared," Gautier Investigator Matt Hoggatt said. "They had at some point had lived together in the same home."
Hoggatt said his department put out the call for other agencies to look for Kirkland. It wasn't long before Pascagoula police spotted his car.
"They attempted to pull him over and he ended up taking them on a high speed chase, wrecking his car."
Kirkland had to go to hospital for minor injuries from the wreck. When the hospital released him, Police arrested Kirkland on a murder charge.
"This is serious crime in nature, and there are some more answers we want to get to provide for the family of both sides."
Kirkland is being held in Jackson County jail awaiting his initial appearance next week.

Considering the hype surrounding Revlon's Lip Butters, I decided to give it a shot. Thought Creme Brulee would be the closest to a nude lip that I was looking for. I love the packaging. The moisturizing aspect of the Lip Butter was great also. Unfortunately, the color was way too pale and frosty for me so I returned it. I would, however, consider purchasing another shade.

This is my favorite nude lipstick! It is sheer but still has some color. The thing I love the most about this lipstick is it's not drying. I will sometimes wear it on top of a matte nude lipstick. It leaves a little shine and does not totally dry my lips out. It's good for an everyday look and is super easy to apply since it is more on the sheer side.

I got this with a Colourstay offer, so didn't pay for it. I'd wanted to try one from the lip butter range and thought that Creme Brulee would be a good neutral starting point. It's not quite the colour I was expecting - it's kind of a milky latte tan type of colour, where as I was thinking it'd be a kind of a golden nude. That said, it's really sheer, so it didn't really matter that the colour wasn't 100% me.
The formula reminds me alot of the L'Oreal Colour Juice Stick - same opacity and moisturizing glossy finish.
It's a nice sheer lipstick but I can't really see how it got so hyped.
I really dont understand some of the negative feedback about this color because i absolutely love it! This was my first color along with the creamsickle and I adore it. I have been looking for a nude lip color for a long long time, and had seen and read several great reviews about the lip butters, so I decided to take a leap and try them. The creme brule a is a shear very light brown almost kind of a golden tint nude color. I am a fair skinned person and I must say I absolutely adore the way this color looks on me. It is sheer so it's buildable and even know I am light skin it still blends in perfectly with my color. This look color looks great in the summertime with dark smokey eyes and I will definitely buy this over and over again

The Revlon lip butter I bought (in creme brulee) has its pros and cons. The lip butter formula itsef is amazing - doesn't dry out your lips and makes them super moisturised and soft! I wanted a nude shade and to be honest, creme brulee doesn't really do it for me. It's more...brown than nude? It doesn't make any difference really to the colour of my lips. Overall, it's quite a good product, I'd definitely buy it again but not in that shade.

Face it the packaging on these babies are cute. Other than the hype, that was one thing that reeled me in to buy these. Yeah they are pretty to look at, the colors that Revlon released for this collection is awesome. I think they did a really good job in terms of colors, really beautiful colors. Onto the product. There is no scent to them ( i kind of thought there would be, anyone else?). It looks like a brown, tan, nude. But goes on sheer to be a warm beigy nude tint. They are really really creamy. In fact, it looks like you could be wearing a lipgloss. It feels really good when you put it on your lips. I mean they feel soft! However...even if you have nice exfoiliated bare lips, the lipstick still looks streaky and kinda runny. Im thinking it does that because of its REALLY creamy texture. Again, feels good, looks bad. If you have this problem that I do I recommend using a lipliner though to be honest when I first heard of the lipbutters I didnt even think about having to use a lipliner. I thought it was supposed to be one of those lipsticks that you can put on without a mirror. I still recommend people still trying it out because Ive read other reviews about it and not every one has had the same problem as I do. I love the color though

This is a gorgeous shade but only if applied over a neutral liner. I am super pale and yellow toned and this looks dead and almost green on me if I don't wear a liner. But with a liner it is amazing. Creamsicle is another shade that must be worn with a liner. Perhaps this would be nicer on tanner skintones than mine as a simple balm to bring out the gold tones.
Creme Brulee is so sheer it does nothing to cover my pigmented lips, just turns them a slightly tinted browny orange which isn't that flattering and looks aging IMO. The color magnifies lip lines on everybody - I've seen it everywhere from young girls to friends to blog pics so the formula is rubbish. The name "lip butter" implies a moisturising effect but the formula It dries out my lips and makes them flake. After an hour the color wears off and leaves glittery bits sitting into the lines. Sugar Frosting, Peach Parfait and Lollipop do the same thing. Very disappointed as I paid NZ $27 each - around US $23 - Revlon is a rip off here.
I've been looking for a nice nude color and my sister let me borrow this. I liked it so much that I went and got my own. The color really matches my skin tone and has the barest hint of shimmer. It doesn't make me look sickly and it's not orange or red on my lips. Just the perfect nude shade. It's the shade I could wear every day. The only problem is that I think this dries out my lips a bit. I would have given it five stars if it weren't drying. I have to wear chapstick underneath.
Looks like concealer mixed with vaseline on my lips. Awful. Back it goes.

One person is dead after a car crashed into an office building and erupted into flames early Friday morning. The incident occurred at 2:47 a.m. in the 2200 block of E. Highway 190.
Fire officials say when firefighters arrived they found flames at the front of a two story office building and inside one of the units. Authorities also say a car was found laying on its side against the front of the building engulfed in flames.
Fire crews extinguished the fire around the car and at the front of the building. Once the flames were extinguished, a person was found dead inside the vehicle.
The Copperas Cove Fire Marshal and Copperas Cove Police Department are conducting an investigation to determine the cause of the incident.
Authorities say at least three companies conduct business in the six office suites. The entire building is currently closed pending appropriate repairs, and there is no loss estimate available at this time.
Three fire engines, two ambulances, and one command unit responded to the scene, and no fire department personnel were injured.

Just thought we could use this post to ask the Bengals to do us favors. If it doesn't take off, then so be it. I'll go first, and mine will be quite simple.
Please look into Fernando Velasco to shore us up at center, plus a guy that can back-up a guard spot if needed. He was very solid last year, and would easily contend, if not beat out, Cook for the starting job. I'd also like us to get the healthiest LB to fill Lamur's role, whomever that may be.

The original actors. What do you really think?
Could they have chosen any better actors to portray the original series crew? I personally don't think so. Star Trek would have been so much different if Jeffery Hunter had remained captain. William Shatner was the right guy at the right time to be Captain of the Enterprise. Leonard Nimoy filled Spock's shoes perfectly. If Majel Barret had remained second in command, he would have just been another ancillary character, Deforrest Kelley made Dr. McCoy exactly what he needed to be. The way he griped and complained and ribbed Spock and that look he got when he held up and examined a test tube. I wouldn't have wanted it any other way. Nichols as Uhura, Takai as Sulu, Koenig as Chekov and especially Doohan as Scotty. It just wouldn't have been the same without any of them. I can't imagine any other television personalities of the time playing those parts. It was fate, kismet, meant to be. I believe the actors finally chosen for these parts were every bit as crucial to Star Trek becoming the very special, highly well known and fondly remembered series that it was, as Roddenberry, D.C. Fontana, Harlan Ellison, Matt Jeffries and the rest of the creative team behind the scenes. So tell me, how do you feel? And remember, this is for posterity. So please, be honest.
Well it's hard to say at this point, I have to say I'm not too familiar with any of these young actors,(but what do I know, I'm just a middle-aged fart) and thier capabilites. As far as looks go, they seem almost dead ringers for thier older counterparts,(especially Zach Quinto playing Spock!). We already know Nimoy and G. Takei, and N. Nicholls approve of thier replacements, not sure 100% about Shatner's feelings on Pine, Deforest Kelly and James Doohan are unfortunately no longer with us so we'll never know how they'd feel with Urban and Pegg,(although it looks like Mr. Doohan's son approves of Pegg)- so there you have it! - I think. I have much confidence that this will be something to remember,(hopefully in a good way)unlike any Trek we've seen before!
I've not entertained the idea much but surfice to say there is nothing like the real thang.
I can't imagine TOS without that cast. I know there was probably someone out there that could've carried each of those parts, but to me it was lighting in a bottle, right timing, right casting, right writing, everything came together at the right time. I heard that Tom Selleck was very close to playing Indiana Jones and everything was set to go, but he had a prior engagement, he was working on Magnum P.I. at the time and couldn't do it so Harrison Ford came along. If Selleck ended up getting the part, it would've been interesting but not the same Indiana. With that movie, Raiders of the Lost Ark, it was the same thing, the right casting, right directing, right writing, one little thing and it'd be a totally different experience as with Trek.
Most importantly you have Shatner, Nimoy and Kelley, they are the key, if anyone could be replaced, it'd be very difficult to find three actors that had such chemistry as they and that's exactly what the writing calls for, you need that trio and those three actors deliver it! Sure, there are surely other actors out there that could've played those parts but not like the cast we got. I can't imagine it getting much better than that. I brought up Jones, cause I can't imagine anyone else playing that part but Harrison Ford and it's the same with Kirk. If you cast right then most of your problems are over. It's an interesting question cause if Rodenberry cast any differently then it's very possible his vision of the future never would've caught on. His ideas, his vision, his whole concept of the future never would get off the ground if he didn't have a cast to deliver it and I don't think you could've gotten a better cast. I'm not one much for destiny and that sort of thing but with that cast, it was meant to be or if not, then what a hell of a stroke of luck!

The original cast was trek. TNG was a pretty good follow up but everything beyond that came far short of what the original crew captured.
Only time will tell but i think that Abrams seems to be a very smart guy who has done serious homework. I would imagine that he did not only spend time listening to the original crew but observing subtle things about them both from meeting as well as watching episodes of the original series.
Not to create carbon copies but i expect to experience enough subtle markers throughtout the film because of this that will make the performance of the new cast ring true.
If there has been different actors originally, you'd be saying the same about them.
John W really portrayed Kirk the way it needed to be.
Steve M did Spock to a T
I love Bill Shatner and Kirk is Trek in many, many ways. But clearly I have a huge void on the Pike issue. Jeffrey Hunter and Chris Pike were left unfinished . . ."Menagerie" or not.
That's why I dream this movie will be 'Pike-centric" (Longshot...I know)
If I had to choose someone who I never really gelled on, it would have to be Koenig as Chekov, but that was more of an issue with the character, not the actor.
"I'll break out of this zoo somehow and get to you. Is your blood red like ours? I'm gonna find out. "-Captain Christopher Pike
Now, don't get me wrong, I can't imagine ST without Shatner playing Kirk... but what if they had cast someone a little more... I don't know... rico suave? I've sometimes wondered if Star Trek would have been taken more seriously without Shatner's....need... to... PAUSE... a... lot...
Personally I feel Star Trek New Voages/Star Trek Phase 1-Prooved you could do TOS with diffrent actors, and make it enjoyagble. WHile I admit those folks look nothing like the original actors, they embody the basic spirit of them. This is a fan effort.
Besdies, the originals are far too old to try it again...we'd be calling this "Geriatric Trek." LOL

Online exclusive: 'Glee' returns in force
For those who were busy doing homework tonight (who does that?), you missed out on the return of "Glee," and you missed out on something good.
The season continued after the Glee club won sectionals. Following her suspension in "Sectionals," cheerleading coach Sue Sylvester blackmails the principal Figgins into allowing her to return to work. Finn and Rachel are now dating, although Finn still is not over Quinn. He breaks up with Rachel, but comes to the realization that he does want to be with Rachel. In the interim, Rachel meets Jesse St. James, the lead singer of rival glee club Vocal Adrenaline. But as with every high school, drama soon unfolds. And that does not even deal with the glee coach and his love interest.
Oh, and the video above? That would be Sue Sylvester (Jane Lynch) re-doing Madonna's "Vogue." It's epic. Check it out.

I've seen it twice already - the original cut at the Sundance Film Festival in January, and again about a week ago, at a press screening here in NYC.
But I still just might see it a third time, if only because of where this particular screening is being held (and the borough's relationship to the filmmaker and the film) as well as the fact that the filmmaker, Spike Lee, will be present for a Q&A afterward; Spike is almost always an edutaining speaker, as any previous Q&A, interview, chat, conversation he's been involved in will show.
And this time, he'll be home - Brooklyn; and you know how we do when we're at "home," with family, compared to when we're "out" in public, among strangers.
The details below; and even though the film does open on the 10th in a limited release (NYC being one of the first cities to get it) I'd suggest you get your tickets now, because I anticipate this will be a sold-out affair, and will sell out quickly.

Spike Lee's RED HOOK SUMMER
Spike Lee in person!
Exclusive Brooklyn theatrical engagement starts Aug 10
With Clarke Peters, Nate Parker, Thomas Jefferson Byrd, Toni Lysaith, Jules Brown.
Spike Lee returns to Brooklyn in this moving tale of a young boy from middle-class Atlanta who comes to the projects of Red Hook to spend the summer with his deeply religious grandfather. Between his grandfather's relentless preaching and the culture shock of inner-city life, his summer appears to be a disaster until he meets a pretty girl his age. Featuring Lee reprising his iconic role of Mookie from Do the Right Thing, Red Hook Summer ranks among the director's most powerful and provocative films.
Q&A with Spike Lee
And here's the trailer again, if you haven't seen it yet:
Mark and Darla | August 3, 2012 12:02 AM
Is there a vital reason why this mother would sent her son to a high crime project in brooklyn from a middle class neighborhood in atlanta, shit don't make sense. He could stayed at Madea house for the summer in atlanta.

---- — The Mazda CX-5 is a smart car that sits in a sweet spot of the American auto market. The CX-5 is a compact crossover, a small SUV, dwelling among vehicles that are prized and popular for their manageable size and versatile character – with all-wheel drive that makes them determined travelers in our soon-to-be-snowy climate.
The compact crossover class contains some prominent models, like the Honda CR-V, Toyota RAV4 and Ford Escape.
The new entrant from Mazda holds its place among the best of them. Its smoothly tapered shape and clean body styling give the wagon a stand-out presence. Its airy cabin is comfortable, attractive and functional. The model handles crisply and steers precisely, making it entertaining to drive.
At an opening list price of $21,490, which includes a generous equipment list that bundles in such features as alloy wheels, dual exhaust outlets, roof spoiler, adjustable steering wheel with cruise and audio controls, push-button start, trip computer, carpeted floor mats, split and folding rear seat, dynamic stability control and tire-pressure monitoring, the CX-5 adds up to an alluring value and a good buy.
It's such an appealing buy that the new model has become the top seller at Lannan Mazda in Lowell, accounting for more than a third of the new cars sold at the dealership.
"We ran out of them last month," said Anthony Scenna, general sales manager at Lannan. "We sold everything we had on the ground and then we were pre-selling them, taking deposits on models that were still in-bound. The CX-5 has made quite an impact both on Mazda and on us."
He stated that the new model has become a magnet for drivers of moderately sized crossover wagons from other brands.
"In the last two months alone we've traded about 10 RAV4 owners into these," Scenna said.
CX-5 is a new vehicle, introduced by Mazda in the spring of 2012 as a 2013 model, now carrying into the 2014 model year needing no substantial updates.
The company says the CX-5 is its first model to incorporate the full suite of its "Skyactiv Technology" features.
Skyactiv Technology is a baffling term that suggests wireless communications more than mechanical engineering, and you have to wonder why someone in Mazda's marketing department didn't veto its use. But Mazda boldly advertises Skyactiv as the full integration of engine, transmission, suspension and body to achieve optimal fuel economy without sacrificing spirited performance.
The heart of the new crossover SUV is a 155-horsepower four-cylinder engine matched to a six-speed transmission. In the entry-level CX-5 Sport model, you can get a manual six-speed, but only with front-drive versions of the wagon.
At Lannan, almost all buyers opt for all-wheel drive, which comes only with a six-speed automatic transmission. Higher trim levels, called the Touring and Grand Touring editions, also come only with the automatic gear box.
In engine and transmission alike, Mazda engineered internal geometries, cut weight, and reduced friction with the aim of maximizing fuel efficiency while maintaining suitable performance. Together with such measures as a total weight reduction for the vehicle body, Skyactiv Technology in the CX-5 yields the best highway fuel economy available in any sport utility vehicle, according to Mazda.
The front-drive CX-5 with manual six speed earns a rating of 35 miles per gallon in highway driving, with a city-travel rating of 26 mpg. When equipped with all-wheel drive – with the automatic transmission riding along – the CX-5 earns ratings of 25 mpg city, 31 mpg highway.
The model's superior fuel economy is a principal selling point, said Scenna.
"Being able to drive an SUV, have all the space and capability, and still get that kind of fuel economy is really winning people over," he said.
The high gas mileage adds to the overall value people find in the car, Scenna added.
"Even a base-level CX-5 still gives you a lot. There is no skimping," he stated.
According to Scenna, the model's abundant features and affordable purchase price attract drivers from across the spectrum.
"We don't have a specific type of buyer looking at this car. Instead it's a wide range of people. We're seeing new drivers getting into these, all the way up to retired couples," the manager said.
The CX-5 joins a Mazda lineup of six additional models, including the MX-5 Miata sports car, the small, sprite Mazda2, the compact Mazda3 available in sedan, hatchback and sport editions, the clever Mazda 5 wagon, the Mazda 6 sport sedan and the CX-9 crossover. All tilt toward Mazda's approach to motoring as an engaging and rewarding activity that should be abetted by nimble cars that encourage athletic maneuvers.
A big mystery about Mazda cars is why we don't see more of them. Like the CX-5 in particular, Mazdas as a whole are smartly styled and distinctively shaped. They are well engineered, thoughtfully equipped and solidly built. They are comfortable.
I'm surprised they aren't more popular. So far this year, over a span of eight months, Mazda has sold about 200,000 cars in the United States. General Motors, Ford and Toyota each sold more than that in the month of August alone.
Scenna said Mazda's position in the second tier of U.S. auto brands is a result of the company's insistence on making out-of-the-ordinary cars.
"Mazda makes fun cars," he said. "They're not cookie-cutter cars, where there's a million of them out there. They're sporty cars. They're reliable cars. They give you everything you need in an automobile, and they're still fun to drive."

Best DVR for downloading shows to your portable devices?
I am moving soon and I have 4 potential DVR solutions. I currently have a Tivo Premiere XL4 on Time Warner cable. I hate Time Warner cable's cable card because channels will black out and recordings will fail for no reason on a more than occasional basis and if you still have one of their cable boxes you see just how clearly terrible of an interface the cable box is, i.e. the interface is terribly slow, if you click too many times it will keep going until stopped which wouldn't be so bad if it showed any useful information about the channels its flying through, and if you switch to on demand and hit guide it shows you a list of on demand channels only. Add to that the fact I have to pay TiVo $16/month and $6/month
I am most interested in Dish or AT&T both of which have what seem to be close approximations of the TiVo experience without the headaches of TiVo on cable card. AT&T and Dish are both well regarded TV experiences that offer an option to download the TV shows to your device. My main question is which is the best of these 2 for a smooth experience of recording TV shows and downloading those shows onto an iphone or ipad. My next choice would be to get an Eyetv which does the job and feels less janky than TiVo but requires a little more effort and only records one TV show at a time which is why I sent it back after the first time I tried it. My last option is to go back to my TiVo on Time Warner cable. Which of these should provide the best smooth experience for someone looking to regularly take shows on the road with them?

(NAFB)--USDA is partnering with Coca-Cola to restore and protect damaged watersheds on national lands. They are aiming to return more than a billion liters of water to the National Forest System - which provides drinking water to more than 60-million Americans. U.S. Agriculture Secretary Tom Vilsack says this partnership between federal, private and non-profit partners is just one example of the strong collaboration that allows government to continue providing results for the American people during challenging budget times. Federal dollars on these projects have been matched two-to-one by Coca-Cola, the National Fish and Wildlife Foundation and the National Forest Foundation.
According to USDA - the new collaboration will leverage collective expertise to address increasing challenges on water resources. Coca-Cola Americas President Steve Cahillane says Coca-Cola supports more than 100 water projects throughout the U.S. He says their experience combined with the knowledge and resources of USDA and other partners will exponentially increase efforts to create healthier, more sustainable communities for all Americans.
USDA's Forest Service, Coca-Cola, the NFF and NFWF have been working together to restore natural resources and wildfire-damaged watersheds since last year. Projects in the greater Denver area, California's Sierra Nevada Mountains and others have already replenished an estimated half-billion liters of water. The partnership announced Friday will expand these efforts - improving additional watersheds and returning more water to natu

Lenovo Ideapad U410 Touch
Reviewed by Aquanim (Currently owns)
Used for over a month
Keybboard: wobles all the time. Even when you write sth in calm manner you can still see it flex under the weight of your fingers. Once you get used to the keyboard you can manage to type without making too much mistakes. Otherwise important keys are very small. Always hitiing sth else instead of the enter button
WiFi ABSOLUTELY TERRIBLE!!!! downloading with 300 kb/s after all updates installed. This is preposterous having in mind that this is the second generation of u410 and obviously Lenovo did not fix that. If known in advance this would be a dealbraker. My 7 year old HP shows far better results.
Batteru life: Could go on for a whole working day if not used for anything other than office work. Have not tested it under heavy use to see how it performs.
HDD and SSD: SO MANY PARTITIONS it is hillarious. I got the 1 TB version but in reality i got only 800 GB. I wanted to install a clean version of windows 8 BUT working out the raid0 system of lenovo proved too much hustle. So for naw i have to settle with this. In time i would like to install 128 SSD and have a nice OS partiton and HDD storage.
Touchscreen rsponds quite well

Cung Le interview just after a training session at AKA. Talks skill matchup with Wanderlei Silva, and fighting for the UFC in San Jose, California.
Cung Le Shirts Sale!! As low as $10.00
love it cung le i think he's skill set is unique in the ufc those kicks will take your head off if your head is not moving. Should be a great match up between him and wandi but i think he will lose this one based on the speed and agressive nature of wandi, if cung le can bring a bit of agility he would handle a lot of contenders.
Enjoyed watching Cung fight Frank Shamrock, but I'll be cheering for Wanderlei that night.♠
gona be a good fight cos both are worn out vets…
KO of the Night for Cung. Been a fan of him since ever since.
Cung Le is pretty cool, he seems like a really cool humble fighter, win or lose, imma still like this guy as a fighter.
Cung le by flying jump kick to the face!
Wandi has no chance, one of my all time faves but his time has passed
Cung will take this one if he can finish Wand in the first two round. Beyond that L for him because he will gas out.
I always will be a wanderlei fan but he tries to out box opponents with no kicks, elbows or knees which made him so dangerous in pride. I think Lee will be looking for a high kick to the head like Cro cop delivered to him in PRide.
wow lee does bring a unique style
a la machida i think this dude was undefeated
in san show when he made apperances in k-1
i hope he goes on a long streak
Cung is training at AKA. Man he's going to KO Wandy for sure bc AKA been training beasts. AKA seems to be the cryptonite for Brazilians. I love Wandy but he just doesn't have it like in his Pride days.
should be a great fight…rooting for Cung Le here vs the ex-roid machine Wanderlei.
i never liked cung le. he used to fight pure kick boxers in san sho rules and just keep tripping them to the ground. and no he is not humble, my kickboxing coach knew him personally before his mma days and he is an arrogant prick. hes barely had any fights. i know im bout to get ragged on for saying this and i know hes a great fighter and a dynamic striker and i like to watch him. but personally, i dont like cung le. never have.
war wand!!!

A lot of mock drafts have the NIners taking cj spiller. To me that would be a huge mistake. The 49ers
struggled in two major stats last year -1. passing yards allowed 2. sacks allowed - They do not have a speedy CB to cover the fast wide recievers, ( roddy white, de sean jackson) who absolutely killed our DBs. The 49ers have a shut down rush defense if we fixed our pass defense it would be a top 3 overall defense with no doubt
40 sacks were allowed by the 49ers last year, however, there was a lot of injuries and shifting of the OL. But the OL was struggling for the get go with Shaun Hill. Alex Smith showed signs of being a playoff caliber QB when given time to throw and or not being under pressure. A good lineman can also help open up those holes for a very underrated Gore.
The 49ers have the best LB with Patrick Willis to stop the rush and up and coming players with Brooks and Goldson. Obviously smith and Parylson are doing they're job along with Frankin who will hopefully get a new contract. The offense is just about set with Crabtree, davis, Gore, Morgan and probably Smith. All who are just about for sure starters for 2010
My Mock Draft
13. Joe Haden best CB in draft. Great speed and good ball presence. If not available (very likely he wont) i would like to see Trent WIlliams, or next best OL since it is a weak CB class
16. Bruce Campbell- very athletic for an offensive line man. Good speed and very strong. If not available an Earl Thomas or Donovan warrren would be a good addition to the back field
2nd Round
In second round i Can see them drafting a good return man or another OL . Maybe even a wide receiver to fill in for Bruce although i like Hill for that.
Mardy Gilyard with no doubt can be a great return man that the 49ers desperately need. However some feel he can be obtain in the 3rd round but i feel he's the man to return the ball for the niners. Plus hes a very good receiver with big play capabilities to fill in for an injured WR or even compete with HIll for the Third wide.
I strongly feel this is the Smartest way to go to feel in the 49ers flaws of last year and go deep in playoffs.

I believe in defensive value. When a player is better than average at his position he will give you positive value and when worse than average he will give you negative value.
I even believe positions like SS and CF give an elite player more opportunities and thus they have the possibility if good enough to have more positive D value than others. And a truly bad player at these positions conversely could have a bigger negative D value as well.
I also think there is value in these positions because come trade time usually there are more players available at lesser D positions, but this is not always the case.
What I've not understood is intrinsic D value in the position itself. This definitely works in roto baseball.
I guess my question is this: If your team goes out and spends $25 million per year on a player like Mauer or Hanley Ramirez are they getting D positional value to go along with the bat? In Mauer's case they will get D value where he is over and above the average catcher. But do they get value in his being a catcher?
Many will use replacement level but there are many serious problems with this. First of all replacement values are high - almost average player high.
My example is this: Pujols or Mauer. It's not perfect. But if your team could add one for $25 million which would help your team more. Let's assume Mauer hits like he did last year. Many would immediately assume Mauer because he is a catcher and their team might have a star 1B already. But when you look at true value - adding Pujols would then mean taking Pena/Tex/Papi/etc. off the books. And adding Mauer would mean taking Varitek/Olivo/etc. off the books.
So immediately we see the big offensive upgrade on Mauer. But we only take a 1 or 2 million contract off. And a lesser impact adding Pujols but then taking a 15 million or so contract off. While replacement players might be better at less skilled positions I think their contracts offset this. And this matters to most teams in the majors. Even the Yankees have 2 fairly weak hitters in their lineup, and that is with stars in their skilled positions.
I do believe there is a small amount of value in flexibility and scarcity at trading time. But not much other than that.
