Shelbyville Daily Union
---- — It was a spectacle, but it wasn't good. There was a flock of Ram penalty flags flying on the field and miscues, bad snaps, lost fumbles and several undisciplined personal foul penalties. Nevertheless, the Shelbyville Rams (1-3) emerged with a more than ugly win over the worst team in the conference, Warrensburg (0-4), on Friday night, 20-12.
The game went so fast it was almost like having a running clock for four quarters. In the end, it all came down to Warrensburg self-destructing late in the 4th and the Ram defense taking advantage.
The Rams had their second pick six inside the final 2:00, but the TD was called back for yet another Shelby personal foul. The teams were chirping so much at each other, instead of trying for another score, the Rams just let the clock run out and notched the win.
Neither team could get going offensively, so it was up to the defense most of the game. Shelby had a drive, taking over on downs at their own 31 late in the 1st quarter. Tyler Hendryx had a 26 yard run.
Tice Robinson and Lucas Duckett had runs that got to the Warrensburg 10. But on 3rd and 12 from the 12, a screen pass hit an unsuspecting Cardinal defender and he ran 64 yards to the Ram 22.
Warrensburg went four downs and the Ram defense stopped them and took over at the 20.
On the first play, a bad snap led to a Duckett fumble that was picked up and taken to the house, 6-0 Warrensburg with 6:57 left in the half.
Warrensburg got the ball back after a punt, driving from midfield to the Ram 29. On 3rd and one, Elliott Smithson stuffed the run. On 4th and 1, the QB sneaked it for a 1st down.
Bart Kennell sacked the QB on the next play for a 12 yard loss. After a phantom interference call on the Rams, Warrensburg faced 3rd and 5 at the Ram 11 with less than a minute in the half.
Chase Jackson picked off a pass at the 10 yard line and the Rams averted the Cardinal score with 23.6 seconds left in the half.
The refs blew a call on the 2nd half kickoff that would have put the Rams at their own 35. The Rams got a re-kick and Jackson returned it from the 20 to the 45.
With 3 receivers to the left, Duckett hit tight end Luke McConnell in the middle in the field for 19 yards to the Warrensburg 32.
On 3rd and 5, Duckett hit McConnell again and his run after the catch got the 1st down at the Cardinal 16. Jackson ran for six yards and Hendryx for one, before another procedure flag pushed them back to the 19.
Duckett threw a fade pattern to Wyatt Fox, who got separation by pushing off inside the 5 and made the catch for a game-tying TD. There was no flag so the TD stood. The Dylan Patch kick was blocked by a defender who raced around the outside of the line and, with 6:46 left in the 3rd, it was 6-6.
Warrensburg took the kickoff, but defensive plays by Jared Finley and Mike Ulrich brought 4th down. A fake punt was stopped short of the 1st down by Zach Williams and the Rams got the ball at the Warrensburg 32.
Devin Peterson ran 13 yards for a 1st down at the Cardinal 14. Tice Robinson ran twice and the official measurement proved a 1st down at the Cardinal 2 yard line.
Duckett kept the ball up the middle and Elliott Smithson and Andrew Mudgett kept pushing the pile over the goal line with 2:30 in the 3rd. The fake kick didn't work and Shelby was up 12-6.
The Cards took the kick, but on 3rd and 4, Finley sacked the QB again. After the punt, the Rams had the ball at the Cardinal 47.
A pass to McConnell netted another 1st down at the WL 33. The game went into the 4th period, but on 3rd and 15, Duckett threw an interception in the middle of the field.
Warrensburg had the ball at the 44. In a bad flashback to previous games, the Rams let a counter play go for a 56 yard TD on the first play from scrimmage. One man had a shot at him, but he slipped on the wet grass. Warrensburg tied the score 12-12 with 10:21 to play. The extra-point kick missed.
A short kickoff was taken by Zach Williams and he returned it to the Shelby 43. After 3 and out, Wyatt Fox punted the ball and it bounced to the Warrensburg 2.
Fox made a run sack to bring 3rd down at the 2. Finley stuffed a run and Warrensburg had to punt from the back of the end zone. The punt went out of bounds at the Cardinal 26.
Duckett got a 1st down run to the WL 15. Another Ram holding penalty pushed them back to the 24 and gave them 2nd and 19. Robinson ran for 10, but the Rams couldn't convert two passes and Warrensburg got the ball at their own 14.
A tipped pass was almost picked off by a diving Finley, then Warrensburg almost got a delay of game call and had to call a time-out. A half-back pass went incomplete, but a late flag was thrown for Ram interference for a Cardinal 1st down.
On the very next play, a pass was deflected by Finley and Tice Robinson caught it along the sideline and took it 20 yards for the score. The pick six gave Shelby an 18-12 lead with 2:55 left in the game.
On the 2-point try, Duckett flipped the ball on a reverse to Hendryx, who threw to the back of the end zone to Luke McConnell, 20-12.
Warrensburg took the kickoff and, on the first pass play, Fox picked off another Cardinal pass and brought it from the WL 35 to the 21.
After a Robinson run, Ram and Cardinal players got into it and there were offsetting personal foul penalties. With 2:16 left, Patch ran for a 1st down to the 10.
Duckett ran and fumbled the ball at the 5 and it was recovered by Warrensburg in the end zone. On their first play from the 20 with 50 seconds left, Fox picked off another pass and took it in for the score.
Shelbyville would have won by two touchdowns, like predicted, but another unnecessary Ram personal foul penalty negated the TD. Shelby let the clock run out to end the game.
The formerly porous Shelbyville defense won the game for the Rams. They gave up just 90 yards rushing and 56 were on one play. They gave up just 27 passing yards and picked off four passes. The defense had seven tackles for loss for -33 yards, and two touchdowns, though one was negated by a penalty.

Highlights: Alexey Komov - Russia's representative to the World Congress of Families The traditional nuclear family is a particular enemy of socialism...because it is the basic institution that preserves values and passes them on to the next generation. "The state, if it wants to dominate life and the individual from birth to death, needs to destroy the family, because the family is independent of the state," he argues. "As Marx and Engels said, the family is a repressive, bourgeois institution that needs to be destroyed; they need to get rid of its patriarchal power and that of Christianity because they are the main obstacles of the social revolution." Rocco Buttiglione -- Italian politician [The] meaning of tolerance has subtly changed over the years, so subtly, in fact, that it has escaped people' s notice.

For entertainment purposes only, though I'd love to book a couple of these.
The poll question stemmed from a wager I offered Vlad, that Garrett Jones would out-OPS Pearce in Indy. I figured I'd throw Walker in there too, to see if there were any believers (or other non-believers in Pearce I suppose).
Bonus questions because I find the subjects interesting and because I sense some people think one option is a slam dunk:
What will Andrew McCutchen OPS at Indy in 2009?
- .850 or higher
- .849 or lower
Daniel McCutchen's HR rate in 2009 will be:
- 1.30/9IP or higher (worse)
- 1.20/9IP or lower
The difference between Tom Gorzelanny's AAA and MLB ERA will be (no minimum IP):
- greater than 3.50
- less than 2.50
My own answers are .849 or lower, but I'd love to be wrong. No real reason, and I'm not down on ACutch, he just hasn't dominated yet. If he goes over, I'll bet it's due to a spike in power. His bat speed is no joke.
The DCutch question is from another discussion with Vlad, and I think he will serve up a lot of gopher balls, so I'll take 1.30 or higher.
Based on a feeling as much as his performance, I think Gorzelanny will cement quad-A status with a terrific AAA ERA, and an abysmal MLB one, so greater than 3.50. I think he needs to remake himself, and he could, but I'll bet it's not soon, and it'll be with another org. He's got the stuff to routinely beat minor leaguers, but his fastball has lost the zip to be able to just throw it in the bigs. He's got to (warning, cliche alert) work on his craftiness, and accept becoming a groundballer that relies more on his offspeed stuff.

One lane of southbound U.S. 127 has been re-opened.
UPDATE (11:30pm):
Crews are working overnight to clean up the southbound lanes. They say work on the side of 127 South will take weeks to remove all of the liquid asphalt from from ground and replace it with new soil.
UPDATE (6:04 p.m.) - One lane of north-bound U.S. 127 re-opened on Monday night - almost 12 hours after a tanker filled with road sealant flipped over and leaked the chemical cargo all over the highway.
The south-bound lanes remain closed and will likely stay closed until some time on Tuesday morning.
The accident happened between the Barnes and Kipp Road accidents near Mason.
UPDATE: Ingham County sheriff's deputies say U.S. 127 near Mason will be closed for the rest of the day on Monday after an early morning accident.
A tanker truck flipped over after deputies say the driver apparently fell asleep at around 5 a.m.
The truck ended up laying across the road and spilling its cargo of road sealant.
6 News reporter Chivon Kloepfer is on the scene and will have more details today on 6 News at Noon.
ORIGINAL STORY: Both northbound and southbound lanes of US 127 are closed at Barnes and Kipp Roads in Ingham County, after a tanker truck flipped over.

This is an article showing how Chelsea will have a completely different season to the previous one. Last season Chelsea did very well in the cup competitions, winning the FA cup and the Champions League. However the blues did less well in the Premiere League, finishing in 6th place - the worst league finish since abramovich took over as owner. The new signings like to play attacking, technical football (marko marin, oscar and eden hazard), and the departure of didier drogba, jose bosingwa, salamon kalou - who were very physical and strong. All this indicates that Chelsea are ready to play more attractive, attacking football, keeping the ball on the ground with less crosses and more passing. However they will still be taking a direct approach and be looking to hit on the break with the pace in the team. This theory has already been proven by our first two league games where we passed much more than normal, achieving 651 passes with a 88.9% success rate against Reading. Therefore I predict we will see a change in the results as a result of the change in style. Hit the jump to see what that change in results will be.
In the champions league it is inevitable that you will at some point, if you get far enough, face the likes of Barcelona or real madrid as Barcelona have won it in 2009 and 2011 and both the two nearly always reach the semi finals. I will use Barcelona as an example. Last season the blues faced them and managed to overcome them over two memorable legs, winning the first 1-0 and then drawing 2-2 at the nou camp. This was achieved largely thanks to Di Matteo's brilliant tactics which mainly involved parking the bus, riding their luck and hitting on the counter. This is proven as Chelsea had 28% possession in the 2nd leg and completed just 117 passes to Barcelonas 660. They also missed a penalty and hit the woodwork several times. Last season this worked very well but with the new style the club looks set to play with they will struggle to repeat this. That is because we will now rely more on passing and will have less of a physical presence as we did with didier drogba. However if you try and play attacking, attractive football against Barcelona you nearly always loose as they are much better than anyone else at keeping the ball. Take Arsenal for example. They were nocked out of the champions league in successive seasons (09-10, 10-11) against Barcelona when they tried to keep possession of the ball and play attractive football. Another example is Manchester United who tried to play attacking football in the 3-1 loss in the champions league final to Barcelona in 2011. Therefore i predict it will be impossible for the blues to repeat their champions league success but in the league this new style of play could have very different effects.
We have already seen in the opening two games how the likes of eden hazard and co. can rip up defences with clever, tidy passing and skills. This has been shown by him (hazard) getting 3 assists and winning 2 penalties in the first two games. Therefore against lesser opposition (which we will see a lot of in the premiere league) it should be easier with our new style of play to pick up the three points because we will create more chances and take advantage of the inferior defences of other teams. In the last season we often drew games as we failed to create enough chances and therefore scored less.
As a result of all this, i predict a much higher league finish and a title challenge but struggle to see us repeating our champions league success of last season.

A second prominent Sobey family member is retiring.
Rob Sobey, who has been president and CEO of Lawtons Drug Stores Ltd. for eight years, will retire on Jan. 31.
He follows Paul Sobey, who retired as president and CEO of Empire Co. Ltd., parent company of both Lawtons and Sobeys Inc., on Dec. 11.
But Rob Sobey, 47, said in an interview Wednesday that while he's retiring from day-to-day operations at Lawtons, it's a "refocus of my time" and not a retirement from his work.
"I'm probably going to be busier than I was at Lawtons," joked Sobey, who will also continue on as an Empire Company board member.
"It was just a personal decision to afford myself more (time), to refocus my efforts on things that matter to me."
Sobey has spent 32 years with the Stellarton company, 25 of them as a full-time employee.
He said he started considering retiring a year ago as his outside business and philanthropic interests, including chairing the Sobey Art Foundation and the D & R Sobey Atlantic Scholarship, started to take up more of his time.
"I don't know if there is a good time or a bad time, but I believe the … business is in really good shape," Sobey said. "The industry is tough, there's no doubt, but everybody (has to to deal) with that."
Recent growth in Halifax-based private investment firm Seafort Capital Inc., backed by Sobey and his father, Donald, director emeritus of Empire Company, has also attracted much of his attention.
Scott McCain, president of Maple Leaf Foods Inc.'s agribusiness group, and owner of the Saint John Sea Dogs hockey club, is also a financial backer of Seafort.
Over the last two years, the firm acquired its first three businesses: Ontario construction equipment rental company G. Cooper Equipment Rentals Ltd., A.W. Leil Holdings Ltd., a Pictou County crane rental and lift services business, and later Partners Cranes, also in Pictou County.
But Sobey said that growth did not directly affect his decision to retire from Lawtons.
"But indirectly, it was a consideration in the sense that, yes, I do want to spend some more time understanding our investments and working a little closer with management at Seafort," he said.
Vivek Sood, who has been with Empire and Sobeys since 2000, and is Lawtons' senior vice-president, has been appointed as general manager for the pharmacy retailer.

Alot of people have made comments on the batting order and who should stay and who should go...I think we have one of the best set of hitters top to bottom. It's still early in the season with 115 games to be played. Players are still jelling together.
The NEW BATTING ORDER after the jump.
I would love to have EY and Fowler at the top, the Gonzo, Tulo, Hawpe, Olivo, Stewart, and Helton. Gonzo would be awesome 3 thur 5 in the order. I would love Smith in the starting lineup, but love him even more late in games.

Hi all! New poster here on BSD.
For my inaugural BSD post, I would like to open with a question: can anyone here help this young man get in contact with one of the defense coaches from PSU? I've been searching online for contact info, anything I could get my hands on for him... No such luck.
Here's a link to his story, and I spoke with Cory briefly via email and he said he would love more than anything to play for PSU as a DE. I believe he has the drive and wants to play. He's currently waiting for NCAA to give him his 2 years of eligibility remaining (he should be able to get it even there is no precedent for such a situation).
Thanks all!

Emergency rent freeze possible in East Palo Alto

This is great news. This issue is complicated and needs time to be sorted out so that what happens happens LEGALLY. I love it when the "little man" sticks it to "The Man" and that's exactly what happened when the low income residents of EPA banded together and demanded that their legal rights be sorted out and honored.

Rent control is immoral. It violates property rights.
Also, it's been shown many places that it doesn't work. There's no incentive to maintain rent controlled properties, and there's no incentives to develop new rentals. Slums and shortages are the result.
on Jan 3, 2008 at 4:22 pm
The only effective rent control is a 10% vacancy rate. Idiots who call for arbitrary rent freezes are the real slum makers.

ALLENTOWN—The gold bulldog statue that greeted workers and visitors of Mack Trucks for four decades and became as symbolic of Allentown as the PPL building and the Allentown Fair, left town quietly and unceremoniously Tuesday.
While workers went about their daily routines at the former Mack headquarters in south Allentown, the bulldog that came to represent the might of the company and its mammoth trucks, was hoisted onto a pallet and hauled away to the soon-to-be Mack headquarters in Greensboro, N.C.
Florida to take photos of the headquarters and with the bulldog," said Ed Balukas, president of United Auto Workers Local 677, which represents Mack employees in the area. "It has been something to keep. To lose that has been gut-wrenching to a lot of people. There are generations of local Mack workers and Mack is in their blood."
Company officials notified employees of the bulldog's move in a company bulletin Friday, said John Walsh, a spokesman for Mack Trucks.
''We consider the statue uniquely linked to our corporate identity, and cannot imagine any Mack World Headquarters without it poised out front,'' Walsh said.
As the Mack brand logo, the bulldog sits atop the hood of many of the trucks the company has manufactured since the 1930s. It also adorns the desks of Mack employees, the caps of truck drivers and the sturdy boots of plant workers.
Mack's move from Allentown to Greensboro is part of the Volvo AB subsidiary's restructuring plan announced last August that will shift Mack's headquarters later this year to the same complex where fellow subsidiary Volvo Trucks North America is based.
Mack, which has been on Mack Boulevard since the early 1970s and a presence in the Lehigh Valley for more than 100 years, has said it will be shift roughly 600 employees to Greensboro as well.
There was opposition to moving the bulldog statue to Greensboro when the company announced its restructuring plan last year. Allentown Mayor Ed Pawlowski and some retired Mack employees have said the icon should stay in Allentown, at the America on Wheels museum that houses Mack bulldogs in its collection.
The 250,000-square-foot former Mack headquarters soon will house Lehigh Valley Health Network. Walsh said LVHN has agreed to maintain one Mack icon -- the illuminated bulldog sculpture on the front of the six-story concrete and glass building will stay put.

I'm in Tokyo now for the first time in two years, and it's mostly familiar. Some things don't change much: the spinach-lentil curry from Nataraj is still a taste bonanza, it's still confoundingly difficult to wrestle a SIM card from one of the phone companies, and I'm still not equipped with a good enough sense of direction not to get lost. But one big thing has changed: all of my gaijin (foreigner) friends here are much better at Japanese.
It's astounding, really. My Chinese friend is so fluent that I assumed he was Japanese and I had just forgotten, another now knows seems to know all of the Kanji, whereas he barely knew any last time I was here, and a third who never seemed to speak before effortlessly chats with Japanese people now. This is the other side that I talked about in Instant Habitual Change.
Maybe it's a result of our instant gratification culture that people don't like waiting anymore. The problem is that some things require waiting, and if you aren't willing to wait you end up missing out on a whole category of experiences and accomplishments.
Like learning Japanese, for example.
No amount of waiting around doing nothing is going to teach me Japanese. I have to supplement my patience with tutoring sessions, trips to Japan, and sounding out every Japanese word I see when I walk through Japan town in SF. Most importantly, I have to execute my practice with respect for the amount of time it will take to learn the language. I pace myself for the marathon by installing good habits and building a solid foundation of the basics before moving on. If I was trying to sprint to learn Japanese, I wouldn't have time for these things.
I used to wish that I could be famous instantly. Every blogger wants his blog to be widely read, and it's easy to fall into the trap of believing that if you just had that one big link on Digg or Reddit that you'd instantly be mega-popular. But, of course, these things don't matter much. You get linked and get a spike in traffic, but those people are mostly gone the next week. What actually builds readership is putting out quality posts consistently. As time passes you become a better writer, get a better feel for your audience, and find your voice. I'm not good enough at these things yet to be famous, but I'm getting closer and will get there some day.
Weight loss is another big example. Try and lose thirty pounds in a month and you'll either fail or gain it all back the next month. Focus on a healthy diet for the long haul and within a year you'll easily get to a healthy weight and stay there. You can instill the habits instantly, but results take time to manifest themselves.
So that's how I get things done these days. I very quickly change my habits and plans, and then wait and course correct to see the changes turn into results.

For A Spell [Esbe pt 3]
10/17/2011 § 3 Comments
In the words of CL…
"I reminisce for a spell, or shall I say think back…"
When time permits, observe the on-stage energy of Esbe the 6th Street Bully at the 1:06 mark in the above video. Witness why Octavis Berry was loved by his local community beginning at the 1:31 mark, and again at the 4:03 mark. Also, keep in mind the above video was shot the week before Tay's death. I did my best to properly eulogize him at the 4:20 mark as well.
Thanks to DVZN Media for a great memorial video. And there's more below…
Fine Art In Effect
02/04/2010 § 1 Comment
We at BavuBlogs love some fine art.
So when something jumps out at us, we have to let you see it and know. Today's featured fine art is the "Concealed Weapons" cover for a new mixtape by Austin, Texas, street-hop group the League of Extraordinary G'z.
The beautiful thing about this CD cover art is that it brings the title, "Concealed Weapons", to life and it avoids a generic rap CD look. This gives the impression that these artists are not your average rappers, and in a lot of ways they aren't. So much respect to the Honest Ape at Big Bad Medium, a blog that acknowledges the importance of all the space between D.C. and Texas while posting some of my favorite music.

A COMMUNITY has less than three months to produce a £500,000-a-year rescue plan and prevent bulldozers demolishing Plas Madoc Leisure Centre.
Recommendations to "close, decommission and demolish" the Acrefair facility – unless a community-based social enterprise can be found by April 30 to take it over – are outlined in Wrexham Council's leisure review to go before the authority's executive board for a final decision next week.
But councillors confirmed a social enterprise would receive no financial backing from the council, meaning the cost of running the £554,000-a-year facility would have to be met privately.
It comes despite the report noting "wholesale opposition" to the plans during the public consultation period and follows a vociferous protest outside the Guildhall by campaigners on Tuesday.
The idea for a community-led social-enterprise taking over the centre was raised by Clwyd South AM Ken Skates during talks with council chiefs.
Under the leisure review proposals, if a community group cannot take over Plas Madoc by the April 30 deadline, some of the money raised from the sale of the site will be reinvested into a "reduced community facility". But it was stressed this would "not amount to a replacement leisure centre or gym".
The closure of Waterworld and the need to identify options for funding a replacement facility in Wrexham are also recommended for approval in the report to the executive board, seen by the Leader.
The report further recommends transferring the management of the council's leisure services to a Leisure Trust, which it estimates will save £535,000 annually.
The recommendations will be subject of a vote at a meeting of the executive board on Tuesday.
The report states there have been more than 2,000 representations from the public during the consultation, of which 96 per cent were users of Plas Madoc, and added the closure of the facility had been met with "wholesale opposition".
Plas Madoc is described in the report as a "valued resource that contributes towards health and wellbeing". It is seen as a focal point for the "deprived community" of the Acrefair area.
Cllr David Griffiths, lead member for health and adult social care, said the council was "handing an opportunity" to the community, but added failure to agree on a transfer would result in the closure of the facility within the next financial year.
"I've been pleased to read how passionately people feel about their leisure facilities", he said.
"I'd have been more concerned if I hadn't received anything back. However, we can't maintain the running costs of Plas Madoc in line with the substantial savings we have to find as a result of the cuts.
"I am disabled myself and I know how much the centre means to people, but I cannot allow my heart to rule over my head on this one.
"We are handing an opportunity to the people of Plas Madoc to explore the possibility of a social enterprise to take over the running of Plas Madoc, but we must stress there will be no funding for this from the council.
"I'll be instructing our officers to enter into discussions immediately."
Mr Skates said: "I've been keen throughout this whole process to get everyone together, all parties and stakeholders, in order to explore every conceivable option.
"I am determined to do all I can to bring people together in order to find a viable and sustainable future for Plas Madoc.
"I would urge members of other political parties and groups to avoid squabbling and political point-scoring and work with me in the interest of the community."
A replacement for Waterworld in Wrexham town could be built by borrowing £11.9 million, resulting in a net cost to the council of £743,000 per year. The report adds without a replacement facility the county's leisure service would be "seriously eroded".
But the report also states this would bring the council £711,000 short of savings targeted over two years as part of the 2014-15 budget, adding a decision on Waterworld's replacement "would be easier to make" if alternative sources of funding were found.
The council also states although leisure services are "highly valued", their need must be considered in the context of budget pressures on services such as education and social care.
Cllr Griffiths said a replacement facility in Wrexham would offer a walk-in pool floor for disabled users, based on the current flooring at Plas Madoc.
Cllr Neil Rogers, leader of the council, hit back at critics of the report, saying: "If people think the report is flawed they can tell us. We are happy to meet with and speak to people who have concerns.
"These are tough decisions but we don't have the financial muscle to carry out the maintenance or continue to run Plas Madoc or Waterworld."

WCBC are going to have to pay out even more in social care, if they create a situation where there are fewer opportunities for adults and the elderly to adopt healthy lifestyles and keep active.
There will also be educational and social consequences if they reduce the opportunities for young people to take part in team and individual sports. MOney will be saved in the short term, but over the medium term the bills will be flying through the letterbox of the Guildhall and the wider community.

Correction on Trinity Christian baseball situation
By Jason Lieser
I need to correct what I wrote about the ongoing issue between Trinity Christian and the Florida High School Athletic Association earlier this week.
Only one part of the ordeal will be resolved Sunday. The overall dispute will not be settled that quickly.
The matter under review Sunday involves only the fines the FHSAA assessed for the incident between Trinity Christian's baseball team and Miami Brito Private last May. The FHSAA penalized Trinity Christian $250 for each of the five players ruled to have committed gross unsportsmanlike offenses and another $100 each for nine other players ruled to have committed standard unsportsmanlike offenses.
Trinity Christian is appealing those fines.
So the total figure at stake Sunday is $2,150 — not the $35,000 (or more) I originally mentioned.
The $35,000 fine will remain in question beyond Sunday.
When a St. Lucie County courthouse granted Trinity Christian an injunction against the FHSAA's suspensions, it also prevented the FHSAA from fining the school. The injunction remains in place, thus the FHSAA can not legally fine the school.
If the FHSAA seeks to have the injunction removed and is successful in doing so, then the $35,000 fine (plus the FHSAA's legal fees) will come down on Trinity Christian.
The FHSAA suspended 16 of Trinity Christian's 17 varsity baseball players after an altercation with Brito Miami Private in the Class 1A regional finals.
Brito player Daniel Bolanos delivered a hard blow to Trinity Christian catcher Phildrick Llewellyn while trying to score and the collision sparked an incident that resulted in a 29-minute delay.
Umpires ejected five players from each side, but in their official report to the FHSAA, they stated that every Trinity Christian player in the field left his position. They also wrote that all of the Warriors' players in the dugout entered the playing field. The standard FHSAA suspension for those actions is two games, which ruled out the entire varsity roster for the state semifinals.
The FHSAA has the power to lengthen or shorten those penalties after review.
Llewellyn later was reinstated because he was knocked unconscious and never left the home plate area.
The day before Trinity Christian was to play in the Class 1A state semifinal at Tradition Field in Port St. Lucie, the FHSAA handed down four-game suspensions to the five ejected players (Jacob Johnson, Jonathan Groezinger, Adaric Kelly, Brandon Murray and Richard Bain) and two-game bans to everyone other than Llewellyn.

An interactive blog for playwrights
Hi everyone
Some really exciting opportunities have flooded my inbox recently, to do with writing submissions of the more experimental kind. For the first time I am working on a multi-media performance piece, and it's so liberating to work on it, and get away from the three act structure sometimes.
If any of these opportunities are up your alley, apply and let us know how you get on.
The Sydney Fringe will be bursting through Newtown, Enmore and Marrickville from September 10 to 26, 2010 – from theatres such as Carriageworks and the Factory through to the gallery spaces and the pubs and bars. It will be the large scale alternative arts festival that Sydney really needs, with a range of events and activities to involve artists, companies and audiences from throughout Sydney, including concerts and theatre events, visual and digital arts and free outdoor events.
If you would like to submit a show or want to get involved, visit the Fringe at www.thesydneyfringe.com.au. There are opportunities across a whole range of artforms, including theatre, dance, film, music, comedy, books, visual arts, digital arts and more, so come check it out!
The 2010 National Young Writers' Festival is rolling out once again and you are invited to find yourself in Newcastle, NSW in the springtime.
Last year's festival rocked, with enormous turnouts for unforgettable, crowd-pleasing events like the inaugural Spelling Bee. How can it be improved and evolved in 2010? It is up to you.
Give our shiny new online submission form a go.
Deadline: Midnight, 31st March
Questions about the submissions process can be sent to email@example.com
Living regionally or know an artist who does? Don't forget Regional Arts Fund (RAF) rounds are coming up in most states and territories in early March. Drop us a line and we can support your grant application to present a project at the 2010 festival.
This email is for anyone who would benefit from taking part in NYWF: budding new don't-even-know-if-they-are-writers-yet, through to amazing stalwarts of the writing community, and anyone who doesn't fit the box of "writer" but uses words and stories in goodsome ways.
We wait in hushed anticipation. Good luck!
The 2010 NYWF Team
Underbelly Arts: Public Lab & Festival 2010 is calling for applications.
Underbelly Arts is a curated event, dedicated to supporting emerging and experimental artists and collectives to develop and present innovative new works to a broad public.
The event is produced in a two stage process beginning with a 10 day lab where participating artists and performers build and create their works on site. The public are invited to witness this process with tours and open days to watch and learn about the artists and their work. It all culminates with a weekend long festival celebrating the results and showcasing performances, installations and works in progress.
Our event will take place this year from 5th – 18th July 2010.
Lab: Monday 5th – Thursday 15th July Festival: Saturday 17th & Sunday 18th July
This year Underbelly Arts is moving to a new home and details of the venue will be announced on the website soon.
Underbelly Arts is not limited to any 'type' of artist, however we certainly like to support:
- Artists in their first 5 years of practice
- More established artists working with emerging artists
- More established artists pushing themselves in new directions
- Collectives of artists: either existing or newly formed
- Artists experimenting and collaborating across mediums
We also encourage applicants who:
- Want to take risks and challenge themselves in a supportive environment
- Will benefit from a period of development, an examination of process and a celebration of outcome.
We like to support:
- New work. HOWEVER, you may apply with an existing project as long as you show how your time spent at Underbelly will be pushing it in new and daring directions.
For full details go to www.underbelly.com.au
Happy writing (and submitting!)

Was the plan against Oregon State to be that conservative? Finishing with 11 quarterback passes and nearly 40 runs?
"If you look at that first half, we had three opportunities where we had guys running down the middle of the field wide open and we couldn't get it off. We had protection issues, guys pushed back in the quarterback's face. That changes the whole game. Had a play with 42 seconds to go, fastest guy matched up against a linebacker, and we couldn't get it off. If you make those plays, you're talking about a 250-yard passing game and a 220-yard running game, and you have proper balance.
Going to Covallis, I thought it was important we stayed in 3rd-and-6 or less – if you look at our third downs, we were better on third down and we had four or five 3rd-and-ones. After the Texas game, when we came out and threw it early, I thought it was important we didn't put our team in that situation.
We were in control of that game for the most part, and when we had to battle back – that touchdown when we got out ahead again, they were throws. There's a time when you have to open it up. From our standpoint of growth of confidence, I think it's important you put them in situations for them to be successful."
Do you have a gripe with the label of conservatism?
"It's not as easy as throw it to Randall (Carroll) or throw it to Josh (Smith). You have to understand the offensive line and who they are. You've got to understand if you put them in too many situations, what's going to happen. You have to understand the growth of your quarterback and flip-flopping the quarterbacks early and not giving one guy all the reps and that situation. It's a culmination of all of that. If you drop back and throw it 30, 40 times, how many sacks are you going to give up?
Then you say, what is best situation to put our offensive line in? We have a defense trying to find its way thats injured. It's important we don't extend their reps. For me, its a total process of putting all that together and making sure you're putting your offense in the best situation to win."
Do you have to approach every game differently in terms of that?
"Every game is different. Against Texas, you have to come out and you had to loosen them up a little and we threw three picks. We didn't execute as well as I would've liked, but I thought it was important to have balance. The Oregon State game we came out and first two or three drives, we took three shots. Didn't hit them – didn't even get them off – because somebody pushed back. Had Randall Carroll running downfield three times, didn't get chance to capitalize. You look at the whole picture, the defense and offense, how are we blocking up front, and you try to put together a plan to go win the game. When you play a team like Stanford, you have to score points. You have to take those chances. You can't be as conservative against Stanford as Oregon State."

Teesside's first offshore windfarm
The initial turbine is about to be put in place at Teesside's first offshore windfarm. EDF is describing the development, off the coast at Redcar, as 'very symbolic' as it may help shape future the company'splans for windfarms elsewhere in the UK and in France.The scheme, costing hundreds of millions of pounds, features 27 turbines and is located 1.5km from the shore between the mouth of the River Tees and Redcar.The 2.3MW turbines will be capable of producing over 60MW of electricity – enough green energy to power up to 40,000 households, or all of the homes and businesses in Redcar, Marske and Saltburn.
– EDF Energy Renewables
The Teesside Offshore Windfarm will contribute towards UK emissions targets by offsetting the annual release of more than 80,000 tonnes of carbon dioxide, the main greenhouse gas. The wind farm will help to support the UK's target to have 30% of all electricity generation provided by renewable sources by 2020.
Construction work started last February and the company hopes the windfarm will be producing power later this year.

Now, while you people are all asleep now (at least I hope for you), it's seven hours later here. So as we speak, it's 9.20 AM in The Netherlands. And I just woke up to see our (yes, OUR) second loss of the series…. AND I
didn't couldn't stay up for the game…. just like I didn't couldn't stay up for the first game. BUT HERE'S A MESSAGE FROM EUROPE... Buckle up and read!
What's my point???? Well, don't think this European fan is gonna bail out on this Blues Team. I agree with that point of "This team isn't supposed to be here and they're playing in one of the most contentious series in the playoffs"….
So screw my best friend overhere in Netherlands, who went last year on a trip to Canada and fell in love with the Canucks (he has his faults too, yes)… Screw him and his text message of this morning saying we (yes, WE) are 'dead and buried'.
Do not be mistaken, my American (and otherwise) St. Louis Blues-friends…. I will be there for Game Three… No matter what, I'll stay up. I'm gonna show the same spirit as the players did to get in the play offs in the first place…
Whatever it takes. Even in Europe.
Let's go Blues!! SEE YOU FOR GAME THREE!

THE Orange Cycle and Triathlon Club's Central West Inter-Club Triathlon series dominance is set to continue ahead of Sunday's round three trip to Dubbo.
The Piranhas take a mammoth 326-point lead into the Dubbo leg of the series, following strong showings in Bathurst and Cowra in rounds one and two respectively.
About 35 Piranhas will make the trip to Ollie Robbins Oval and compete in the single race event, consisting of a 500m swim, 18km ride and 2km run.
OCTC president Steve Martin expects his troops to excel on Sunday. Temperatures are expected to reach upward of 39 degrees in Dubbo tomorrow, but Martin said because the race is run early, he isn't expecting the heat to take its toll.
"It gets very hot in Dubbo but that's why we run the race earlier," he said.
"If it does get anywhere near the forecast while we're racing I think it will probably hurt us."
Martin highlighted the Piranha women as the triathletes to watch on Sunday.
"Our women did very well in Cowra, and I expect them to do well again in Dubbo," he said.
"Janet Martin, Christine Wolfson and Lauren Kerwick should all do well. Jane Fardell, from Dubbo, will be racing I think so she'll be tough to beat though."
With over 90 participants expected, Martin said Orange's toughest competitor would be last placed Dubbo.
"Obviously being their home event there will be much more competitors from Dubbo, and Mudgee for that matter," he said.
"The current is strong in the river at the moment which is why there is no junior race. It should help out those of use who aren't natural swimmers as well.
Registration for the event begins at 7.30am with the race scheduled to begin at 9am.

I will miss the guy! No doubt about that, but these "parting" times always come. In memory and a satirical moment at my job recently... I pulled a "Fox".
I was getting a semi-ass chewing of how one of my classes was underachieving and supposedly, I wasn't inspiring my students enough, blah, blah, blah. My reply to the situation, "It is what it is..." This was met with awkward looks and silence from my superiors. At that point, I silently thanked John Fox and went about my day.

More than twenty years ago WLBT committed to air editorials on important issues and topics. Many times those are critical editorials about local, county, state and federal government actions.
The very fact that we can openly question our government should give all of us pause to be grateful that we live in America. We just have to look at countries like Syria, Iran and North Korea to see what it would be like without our freedom.
We live in the land of the free, but our freedom has come and continues to come at a great cost. Through the years many Americans have given their lives to ensure our liberty. As we celebrate Independence Day take the time to thank those who serve in the military. Have a happy 4th and God bless America.

ST. PAUL, Minn. (AP) -- As more state legislatures around the country vote to legalize same-sex weddings, an analysis of gay marriage votes in eight other states shows that the few GOP lawmakers who backed it often faced heavy consequences.
A gay marriage debate is likely to hit Minnesota's Legislature soon. The Illinois Senate voted Thursday to legalize gay marriage, sending the bill to the House. Similar debates are under way or could start soon in Rhode Island, Delaware, Hawaii and New Jersey.
In the eight previous states, only 47 Republicans out of hundreds voted for such bills since 2009. Only 21 are still in office. Some lost primaries, some retired and others were shunned by colleagues. In Illinois on Thursday, only 1 out of 19 Senate Republicans voted to make gay marriage legal.

LUBBOCK, TX (KCBD) – Investigators with the Lubbock Fire Marshal's Office spent Saturday evening looking into what started a fire in Northeast Lubbock.
The blaze broke out around 8 p.m. in the 1800 block of N. East 2nd Street. Firefighters on the scene contained the fire to the front of the house, but it is still too early to know if it is a total loss. There is extensive smoke damage throughout the house.
The owner, Tommie Williams, believes a burning candle started the fire. He tells KCBD he stayed inside fighting the flames, but they got out of control. The flames singed his sweatshirt. He says he doesn't have insurance.
Neighbors were also on the scene offering to help Williams. The Red Cross is offering assistance.
Investigators have not released an official cause of the fire.

Ramstad Middle School is getting closer to welcoming students on North Hill.
While the new building won't be ready for the first day of class...by Thanksgiving, students should start to break it in.
In our final stop around the school district and the construction work that has been underway for some time now, Perry Olson takes us to Ramstad where a school is starting to really come together.
Take a trip to the top floor at Ramstad...and you'll see something very familiar...
(Ione Sautner - Ramstad Principal) "That looks very nice with the red and grey...nice to see the Rocket Red appear!"
Paint -- school colors to be exact -- on the walls now. That's the top floor...work down and you see less completed...but even more work. Construction crews are racing to hit the deadline of Thanksgiving to get the kids who have called the Minot Auditorium home for two years back into a school...
(Ione Sautner - Ramstad Principal) "Getting into a real building and a real school will make a big change in the school culture and ownership of our students."
For the 8th grade class, it will be less than a year of their middle school lives spent in an actual school. 6th and 7th grade were at the Aud...and even part of their final year -- but when the move is made, they will be looked up to for guidance in getting used to the new surroundings...
(Ione Sautner - Ramstad Principal) "They will be the class that will take the lead."
The school is massive -- with sight lines that allow plenty of views out...and lots of light in.
(Ione Sautner - Ramstad Principal) "Natural light in a classroom provides one of the most optimal environment for kids learning. It brings a good sense for them and helps them concentrate"
And while concentration may be tough right away after Thanksgiving when students get into their lockers here...it will prove beneficial in the long run at a new Eric Ramstad Middle School. In Minot, Perry Olson, KX News.
The Minot Public School District wants to know what you think of its plans to address the District's growth.
Starting today, Kansas City-based Market Research Associates will conduct surveys over the phone with households throughout the district.
Calls will be placed weekdays from 7-9 pm and weekends from noon to 6 pm.
Truck still considered to be a "vehicle of interest" in fatal crash.
A two-year-old child was killed by a hit-and-run driver in Minot this evening.
They ask if you have any information about the incident that you contact them at 852-0111.

Mal and I discussed when this may have happened wondering if he had just come in after Mal had unlocked the front door this morning. Then Mal remembered the shoes were in front of the door when he opened it. At that time, Mal had blamed me for the shoes in front of the door. Mal and I had walked around the house and Mal had actually entered the room with the sleeping young man a couple of times before we even realized we had a house guest.
Before we knew his story, while discussing what to do, we quickly decided that he must have really only wanted/needed a bed because that was what he took. He had even been polite enough to leave his shoes at the door. So we left him, sleeping and I began to call him Jesus.
We thought that maybe, the boarder in the flat next door might have sent him over. Nope. Mal tried to wake him and he said he was cold so we put another blanket on the bed and let him sleep. Eventually, Mal had to leave the house (I had left for a meeting) so Mal woke him and he was confused at first then embarrassed.
"Weren't there people and a party here last night?" he asked. "No" Mal replied. He said, Maybe, I drank too much. I just remember being so cold." No wonder it was 35F/2C last night and he had no coat. He told Mal his name, where he worked and apologized many times.
He apparently wandered out of his party and thinking he was wandering back in entered our 'locked' house. Okay, the door locks but the house has moved and sometimes it doesn't really latch and a push on the door opens it in spite of the lock but that only happens once in a while....I thought.
I will actually be more diligent in ensuring the door is locked at night but also know I will feel a bit guilty and wonder if there is someone out there that needs an unlocked door. I pray they ring the bell....

Ride for Missions supports the work of Rosedale Mennonite Missions, helping send workers around the world where few people have heard the good news about Jesus.
As the ride has grown over the past eight years, it has become a vital part of RMM's funding. Eighteen cyclists took part in the first Ride for Missions, and last year 63 riders raised more than $118,000! That makes up almost 5% of our entire annual budget in one event! Since its inception, the ride has raised more than $500,000. We're grateful that people who are passionate about missions and about cycling have found a way to combine those interests in such a fruitful way.
This summer, from July 26-30, we invite you to join the 9th annual Ride for Missions, departing from Ashtabula, Ohio and ending in Castorland, New York (roughly 384 miles). Come enjoy the camaraderie and fellowship with other cyclists as you meet a challenge together in support of missions. Anyone can be part of the ride, regardless of physical condition or interest in cycling (those who don't take part themselves can still support riders and spread the word about the event).
There is no registration fee for the ride itself, but cyclists are asked to raise financial support from sponsors ($100 minimum). Lunches are provided. Other meals will be at the rider's expense. Depending on the level of corporate sponsorship, lodging expenses may be subsidized to help riders with cost.
You must register by June 25, 2014 to participate.
Bring all pledge sheets to the ride kickoff.

I've been using GC Speed Slim for the past five months on the strong recommendation of a doctor friend. I never wanted to do this but I had to because of my increasing weight.
I thought this would be just like any other weight loss supplement but it is not. This diet supplement is somewhat different and worth trying for all who want to get back in shape.
Well, this green coffee supplement has so many powerful compounds that help melt away the fat but the main compound that kills the unwanted cellulite is green coffee bean extract. This is loaded with chlorogenic acid which is clinically proven for weight loss.
Why Green Coffee Bean Extracts?
These are the beans that haven't been roasted. They are rich in crucial compound known as Chlorogenic Acid which is good for human body. These green coffee beans are in its purest form and chock-full of fat killing and appetite regulating enzymes.
How does GC Speed Slim Work?
Chlorogenic acid in the formula helps absorb sugar from the intestines. It also helps slow down enzyme in the liver that discharges sugar into the blood vessels. This process can help you control appetite and reduce intake of extra calories naturally. This helps increase metabolic rate that eventually leads to weight loss. As such it helps prevent new fat from being made around belly and other problematic areas.
When should one Expect Results?
It may take a month or more to see visible results. Take the pills as prescribed by the doctor or on the label of the bottle. Results may vary from person to person.
They are available on the official page. You can see the pictures and experiences posted by the users there.
Things you should Know about this Diet Supplement!
Any Side Effects?
I didn't find any; you can check with a doctor before starting.
Where to Buy this green coffee diet supplement?
You can claim your free trail bottle now; go to the official site of GC Speed Slim. The product is available online.

We are the underdog in this game. Odds makers have given 5 points to NO in this game. Odds makers want the bets to be even on both sides so if more money is bet on one side they give points to the other side to get people to bet the other way. So they have to give 5 points to the Vikes to even the betting. This means that of the betting people out there most feel the Vikings are pretty big underdog in this game.
I do not worry about this and many have posted, we play much better from the underdog position and I see no reason for this to be any different.
I predict our kick off coverage will be better.
I predict we will have one turn over, only.
I predict that the Saints will try a few more trick plays some of which will work but the high scoring Saints will be held to 21 points.
I predict AD goes for 130 yards 3 TD's.
I predict the Vikings score 34 points.
Go Vikings

Raymond "Bogie" Bogart, 67, of Danville passed away at 3:42 p.m. Wednesday, Nov. 13, 2013, at Carle Foundation Hospital in Urbana.
He was born Oct. 24, 1946, in Danville, the son of Clarence "Duke" and Alice Mae (Grant) Bogart.
He was happily married to Sher, his bride of 35 years, who survives.
Raymond will be greatly missed by one daughter, Nikki Bogart of Danville; one son, Todd (Erin) Gross of Danville; four sisters, Joanne (Larry) Langston of Georgetown, Cheryl (Mike Murphy) Bogart of Las Vegas, Nev., Nancy (Sam) Hall of Danville and Bonnie (Mike) Jarvis of Danville; and his best friend and favorite grandson, Parker T. Gross.
He was preceded in death by his parents; one brother, Alan (Kim) Bogart; their son, Alan Jr.; and one sister, Delores (Jerry) Smith.
Raymond was a proud member of the United States Army in 1965-1966 where he was a crew chief on the Medivac helicopter rescue team, 498th Dustoff, in Vietnam. He received many medals and decorations; most notable are the Vietnam Service Medal and the National Defense Service Medal, along with a handwritten commendation from Gen. Westmoreland.
He worked for Ameritech phone company for 30 years before retiring in 2000. Ray loved cleaning and tinkering with classic cars and was known for keeping a well-maintained yard with his Kubota lawn mower. The most important thing to him was walking his favorite grandson, Parker T., down to the bus stop every morning and waiting with him to go to school.
Ray also enjoyed helping all his family; Todd and Nikki could always count on getting great advice from him and he always found time to tease his sisters.
Private services for the family will be held per Raymond's wishes at a later date. Cremation rites have been accorded through Sunset Funeral Home and Cremation Center, A Life Celebration Home, in Danville.
In lieu of flowers, memorial contributions can be sent in Raymond's name to the Danville VA Angel's Wings charity or the American Legion Post 210. Please join Raymond's family in sharing photos, videos and memories of his life through his Tribute Wall at www.sunsetfuneralhome.com.

MGM is emerging as the 800 pound gorilla in the fight for a Springfield casino. An iconic name worldwide in gaming and resort destinations, MGM is acting like the behemoth that they are. Operators of The MGM Grand, Bellagio, Mandalay Bay, Mirage, New York, New York, Luxor and Excalibur in Vegas and monumental holdings in Asia, what MGM wants with little old Springfield is anybody's guess. Although with a 2012 Q3 loss of $181.2 million, Casino Whispers.com is guessing every little bit helps!
Partnered locally with the other Picknelly brother, Paul, MGM is planning a massive 800 million dollar undertaking in Springfield's south end. Their plans incorporate existing venues like the Mass Mutual Center and Symphony Hall. They are offering everything from 165,000 feet of retail to a bowling alley. They too also plan a link to Union Station via a trolley system. Of course what they aren't saying is that they won't have any better luck booking the Mass Mutual Center than it's current stewards Global Spectrum as the size and proximity to Hartford is prohibitive but more on that in another story.
MGM spent we hear close to 13 Million to win the referendum. That's why you aren't going to hear any negative stories about the "Golden Lion" on any of our TV or radio stations. They have donated significant monies for sponsorship of both the Springfield Falcons and Springfield Armor along with $50,000 to the South End Community Center (Mayor Sarno's pet project and old employer) and sponsored the recent tree lighting ceremony in town.
Altruism has also extended to local land owners including the Catholic Church. MGM has been over-paying for all the land it can grab. MGM recently bought the former St. Josephs Rectory on Howard Street for a cool million. Yes, the same property that is on the Springfield assessors books for $362,000. MGM also has bid 3.2 million dollars for the Zanetti School and State Armory building. The only other bid for the Zanetti property was from the Colvest group for $750,000. Considering the Colvest group is one of the most storied and experienced realty concerns in the City of Homes, we think this is significant. No other company would better understand the true price of real estate.
As high as the level of skid greasing in Springfield by MGM is, it's even more interesting given the potential problems that MGM will have getting a license from the MA Gaming Commission. Commish Gayle Cameron has already publicly questioned MGM's ability to compete in this state after losing its bid to open a casino in NJ because of ties to organized crime in Macau. And Cameron should know. She was a former colonel in the NJ State Police who personally oversaw all casino investigations.
Remember the name Pansy Ho. There will be a quiz. Pansy Ho is one of the wealthiest women in the world, (with a net worth over $5 billion), and she could be MGM's Achilles heel in Springfield.
in 2010 New Jersey gaming regulators disallowed MGM's request to put a casino in Atlantic City because its principle investor in Macau was Pansy Ho. NJ ruled that Pansy, heir to Stanley Ho's multi billion dollar casino empire, relied on her dad just a bit too much when he gave her 90% of the funds she invested in MGM Grand Macau. What's wrong with a gift from a Dad? Well, Pansy's pop has been connected to Chinese organized crime. And those guys don't fool around!
CasinoWhispers.com is pretty sure that if NJ won't let in this type of connection to organized crime, it would be a tough stretch to think that MA would allow the nexus. Lest you think that MGM would divest itself from Macau to play in the Bay State, think again. Macau is a $33 billion gambling mecca. Coupled with MGM's financial difficulties of late, we think MGM might be playing a less than winning hand.
THE ODDS: 7 to 1
