Movie review
"Die Hard" franchise is alive and well
If you find yourself wondering how a diminutive young woman and a broken-boned 52-year-old man have come to be bashing each others' brains...
Special to The Seattle Times
Opens late tonight
"Live Free or Die Hard" with Bruce Willis, Justin Long, Timothy Olyphant, Cliff Curtis, Maggie Q, Mary Elizabeth Winstead. Directed by Len Wiseman, from a script by Mark Bomback. 130 minutes. Rated PG-13 for intense sequences of violence and action, language and a brief sexual situation. Several theaters.
If you find yourself wondering how a diminutive young woman and a broken-boned 52-year-old man have come to be bashing each others' brains out while trapped in an SUV that's dangling face downward high up in an elevator shaft at one of the nation's most secure government facilities, you're watching the wrong movie.
This scene about midway through the fourth installment of the "Die Hard" franchise isn't even the most spectacular or far-fetched. But like most of the giddy, extravagant entertainment of "Live Free or Die Hard," its breathtaking pace leaves no room for wondering about anything, be it the scofflaws of physics who thought up the stunts or the nonsensical plot that unfolds with such absurd logic that it actually seems plausible.
Bruce Willis again brushes off the New York City police badge of Detective John McClane to dive into the action more cynically than ever as an aging bulldog and reluctant (super) hero. He's thrown into the action when the FBI recruits him to escort a computer hacker to Washington, D.C. Pasty-faced braniac Matt Farrell (Justin Long) is one of many underground silicon junkies who have unwittingly provided seemingly innocuous algorithms to a slick band of cyber terrorists bent on taking down the country's computer infrastructure.
Movie review
Showtimes and trailer
"Live Free or Die Hard," Bruce Willis, Justin Long, Timothy Olyphant, Cliff Curtis, Maggie Q, Mary Elizabeth Winstead. Directed by Len Wiseman, from a script by Mark Bomback. Rated PG-13 for intense sequences of violence and action, language and a brief sexual situation.
McClane arrives just in time to save Matt from a batch of plastic explosives — a fate that has already befallen his other unsuspecting hacker buddies. McClane also foils the five-man hit squad sent to finish off Matt in a dizzying sequence that sends the camera into acrobatic swoops around bullets, bad guys and things that go boom. "Spider-Man" has nothing on the physical action of this camera crane gadgetry and the non-computerized moves by a gymnastics — and parkour-inspired champion stuntman.
By the time McClane gets Matt to D.C., the Prada-clad bad guys have already initiated the first phases of a worst-case scenario takeover of anything controlled by a computer.
Whacked-out traffic signals turn cities into crashed-car parking lots, Anthrax alerts empty government buildings and financial markets implode on bogus trading info. Matt explains that it's the beginning of a "Fire Sale"; everything-must-go Armageddon in hacker-terror parlance.
The guy in charge of the Fire Sale is Thomas Gabriel (Timothy Olyphant), a disgruntled ex government cyber guru who only wants all the money in the USA as compensation. Since he designed the backup system, all he needs are a few laptops and guys with guns to take it all. What he didn't count on was McClane and his new buddy Matt, who fortunately has a laptop of his own.
It's hard to explain how wall-to-wall action is suffused in this detail-heavy plot, but the nonstop mayhem includes several helicopter-to-ground urban battles, many flying and exploding car chases, lots of inventive running, fighting, shooting and jumping sequences and a climactic duel between an armored 18-wheeler, a Harrier jet and a multilevel interstate highway that's beautifully decimated in the process.
Along the way there are many, many deaths, and wiseacre McClane reacts with the same glee we do at the more gnarly ones.
Ultimately, "Live Free or Die Hard" so completely slacks our jaw and so successfully suspends our disbelief that the highest praise goes to the crew of first-class technicians who pulled it off. Their motto must have been: If you can think it up, we can make it happen.

My paternal grandmother was Christiana Martin (nee Brubaker), her father was Andrew Jackson Brubaker Jr., son of Andrew Jackson Brubaker Sr., the man you wrote of. I have heard of Courson, he was my grandmother's brother. Christiana was known from an early age as "Nanna," but that is a rather involved family story. My father and I and a couple of my Martin uncles work on genealogy. I may even have copies of pictures of Courson and Andrew, I'm not sure off-hand without looking through my piles of stuff. I'd be happy to see copies of any Brubaker photos you have, and I'd be willing to share some of my photos as well. My photos, however, are mostly of the Martin family. I do have pictures of my grandmother. Steven C. Martin Notify Administrator about this message?

Did Alcohol Prohibition Fully End Today? Homebrewing Finally Legal in All 50 States |

Today is an interesting milestone for me as an active homebrewer and a drug policy expert. As of July 1st 2013, it is now finally completely legal to brew beer at home in all 50 states. A new homebrewing law in Mississippi, the last remaining hold out, goes into effect today. One could argue alcohol prohibition in the United States didn't fully end until today.
Feingold for Governor: Scott Walker & WI GOP's War on Good Beer |
By: bmaz Saturday June 18, 2011 12:00 pm |
I don't know what the fine Cheese-and-Bratheads up in Wisconsin did to piss off the political gods, but they have been blighted. It was bad enough to cause national outrage and solidarity when extreme right wing movement conservative Governor Scott Walker and the crazed GOP majorities in the state legislature started attacking the working men and women of Wisconsin's unions, teachers, cops and firefighters. But now they have gone a bridge too damn far.
And that is why I am supporting Russ Feingold in a recall election against Walker, and you should too.
Rendell, on Maddow, Reiterates Party's "Campaign": Vote for Democrats or I'll Kill You |
By: Gregg Levine Thursday September 23, 2010 9:30 am |
For Democratic leaders, threatening unenthusiastic voters with vague pictures of doom and gloom, when much of what the voters see right now is already pretty gloomy, is not going to "wake up" very many of the rank and file. Promising little else in terms of benefits if Democrats stay in power—little beyond "there's more to do"—does not provide enough positive motivation to engender enthusiasm.

Loaner Laptop Tracker
Hey :), I'm working on a way to track our loaner laptops and setup a way for customers to be able to request a loaner for a future date, and have the workflow check to see if one is available for those dates, and then return that data (either avaiable or not).
Currently i have a workflow setup where people come to the helpdesk and request a loaner, and we check in our stock, and then log the barcode in the process and give it to them. Then the process goes to a task where it just sits and waits for the Equipment to be returned.
This process is working but i'd really like to have Altiris check and update an excel "database" (thinking an excel spreadsheet with barcodes on the top and dates on the side... and then just have it write the customers name in the field for each day the loaner would be needed).
This way customers could request equipment early and we would know to have it set aside, or know that nothing is available.
My questions are these:
1.) is there an easier way to do this winthin altiris? perhaps using the built in calendar?
2.) how can i get the workflow to check and write names? I've looked at the components but i'm not fully understanding them :(

Winnipeg Free Press - PRINT EDITION
Dogged work led to 'walk of shame'
Staffer tried to check on Phoenix, believed another would follow up
After tracking down Phoenix Sinclair's home without an address and going there twice to see if she was being abused, Richard Buchkowski's legwork was rewarded with the "walk of shame."
The inquiry into the death of the little girl Monday heard from a Winnipeg crisis-response-unit worker who responded to a March 2005 phone tip that Phoenix's mother may be abusing her and locking her in a bedroom.
Phoenix was murdered by her mother, Samantha Kematch, and stepfather, Karl "Wes" McKay, in 2005. The province ordered an inquiry in 2011 to find out how five-year-old Phoenix slipped through Manitoba's child-welfare safety net.
The inquiry has heard testimony about a "walk of shame" that may have been part of its fabric.
The term refers to when Winnipeg Child and Family Services' intake unit wouldn't open a case file referred by emergency workers such as Buchkowski. Instead of investigating further, the intake unit sent the file back to the crisis-response unit, saying its workers needed to do more to justify an investigation or close the file.
On March 5, 2005, CFS's after-hours unit got a call with concerns about Phoenix and a description of where her apartment building was located. Two days later, Buchkowski in the crisis-response unit was assigned the case.
"It was a high priority," said the man, who's worked in child protection for more than 20 years but doesn't have a social work degree. "The family has an extensive history and the child was previously in care."
Through calls to social assistance and the Winnipeg School Division, where Phoenix was registered for nursery classes but never attended, he was able to confirm an address. He went that day to the inner-city apartment building -- in the morning and the afternoon -- but couldn't get in because it was locked.
Buchkowski said he believed he did everything he could in the one day he had to work on the file. He wrote up what information he had and recommended the intake unit upstairs open a file for further investigation.
"We didn't define what the abuse was yet," said Buchkowski. "I assumed someone would try the next day." Instead, the file on Phoenix ended up on the "walk of shame" and bounced back to his crisis-response unit.
Buchkowski said he doesn't know why Phoenix's file wasn't accepted by the intake unit for further investigation. The file ended up being closed by the crisis-response unit without anyone seeing Phoenix, the inquiry heard.
Today, a CFS file can't be closed without someone seeing the child, said Buchkowski, who still works in the crisis-response unit.
"All the children are supposed to be seen," he said. And workers are likely to have more consistent information to work with because of the "structured decision-making tool" everyone has for gathering information.
The after-hours unit worker who took the call Buchkowski acted on didn't include information about the last time CFS had been involved with Phoenix Sinclair. "It could've been an error on my part," Jacki Davidson told the inquiry Monday morning.
She took the March 5 call from a foster parent that Phoenix may be being abused and locked in a bedroom by her mother. Last week, the caller, whose grown foster child was a friend of Kematch, testified about concerns for Phoenix's safety. The caller, who can't be identified, said they were livid because Davidson didn't want to hear third-party information. The foster child testified earlier to being scared of Kematch and distrustful of CFS and asked their foster parent to make the call about Phoenix.
Davidson said Monday she wanted to hear directly from the source. "The person I was talking to hadn't seen any of it." If someone had said they saw a child being hurt and were more specific, someone from after-hours would've gone out right away, said Davidson, who recently retired from CFS.

Ring Found In Donated Capri Pants Worth $5,000
By editor
Good morning. I'm Renee Montagne. A Minnesota woman went to a local Goodwill looking for a deal and, as she put it, some bling. And Deb Thompson got both: a pair of gem-studded pants for $3.99, and in one of the pockets, a diamond ring worth at least $5,000. Thompson showed her own goodwill. She asked the charity to help find the rightful owner. And there have been dozens of claims, but for the moment, it's finders, keepers. It's MORNING EDITION.

Tractor Supply Company has named former Ulta Beauty executive Robert D. Mills as SVP and chief information officer, succeeding James Callison. Mills will also serve on the company's executive committee.
Callison, who informed the company last year about his plans to retire, will remain on-board for an undisclosed amount of time while the transition is completed.
Former Ulta Beauty CEO Lyn Kirby is reportedly part of a group that acquired Beauty Brands, a cosmetics chain based in Kansas City, Mo.
According to a Crain's Chicago Business article, Kirby, along with a leveraged buyout firm in California, snapped up the majority stake from advertising executive and entrepreneur Robert Bernstein.
Ulta Beauty CEO Mary Dillon outlined some of the key priorities for her first 100 days at the helm of the beauty retailer, following a 24.8% boost in second quarter net sales.
Dillon, a former PepsiCo executive, joined the company as CEO on July 1. She succeeded Chuck Rubin, who left the company to become CEO at Michaels Stores. Serving as interim CEO following Rubin's departure was Dennis Eck.
Target has announced that former PepsiCo and U.S. Cellular executive Mary N. Dillon has resigned from its board of directors. Dillon has sat on the board since 2007.
Ulta Beauty announced that Mary Dillon will be the company's new CEO. She begins her new role July 1, at which time interim CEO Dennis Eck will step down.
Eck has been interim CEO since February, when Chuck Rubin stepped down as president, CEO and director to become CEO at arts and crafts specialty retailer Michaels.

The gym's team of certified personal trainers, alternatively, can tailor workouts to patrons' fitness goals, whether they are trying to make their high school's baseball team or the Olympics.
Facilities at the more family-orientated Powerhouse Gym and Family Fitness enlist nurturing personal trainers to man their workout floors and group classes, which run the gamut from intense Les Mills routines to rhythm-fueled Zumba sessions. In line with the Powerhouse Gym credo, employees strive to foster each member's individual strength, whether they want to complete a single pull-up or do so while dangling from the tusk of an enraged mammoth. To make working out more enjoyable and convenient, amenities such as mounted TVs and childcare stations might complement the throngs of cardio and strength machinery at varying locations.

Got this as a Sephora freebie, but it's really meh. Definitely not worth the price, there are much better high end mascaras out there. There are better drugstore mascaras for that matter. First off, the color sucks. I have it in excessive black, and it's not really that black at ALL. It's actually a weird dark gray shade, which is supremely unflattering on me. The formula is weird too. It's not clumpy in the traditional sense where your lashes are just literally clumped together. It does separate pretty well and does get every lash but it sort of looks...grainy? It's like you have well defined lashes, but they still look spidery if that makes sense. It dries really hard too and makes your lashes feel stiff and dry, and pulls all the curl out (my lashes naturally have a good amount of curl, and I always curl them for even more, so this is rarely ever a problem for me). It's certainly not a very dramatic looking mascara either. You need at least 2 coats for any decent effect, and by then it gets really hard and spidery. The only good thing I can say about it is that the lasting power is decent, and no smudging. That's about it. And I don't have very oily lids so again, not a huge feat.

My HG mascara. It costs about $32
CDN. It separates, thickens and lengthens my lashes. One coat is enough, but for extra dramatic lashes I'll add another coat. The brush is big and awkward and takes some getting used to, but once you're comfortable, I find it reaches all lashes easily (even bottom ones). Not waterproof but does not flake easily. Lasts all day on its own without a lash primer. Great mascara!

Honestly I hated this mascara at first. It smudged so bad and I didn't feel like it gave me drama to my lashes. That being said I went back and purchased the primer that goes with this and then tried it again with the primer and I loved it. The primer helped so much and I ended up repurchasing both

I have a few mascaras but I decided that I wanted an awesome high end one that would perform incredibly and meet all my expectations.
I have naturally curly-ish eyelashes, dark-medium brown coloured, not so sparse but not thick and full either. I usually don't need to use an eyelash curler, the mascaras do the job. I tend to look for mascaras that offer more volume. Most mascaras will achieve a nice look on my eyelashes, they are quite cooperative hehe. Anyway, as much as I wanted to love this mascara, I had to return it. The formula is very black, which is nice. I didn't notice it to smudge easily which is another plus. But the product was a bit too liquidy and wet and the brush was not doing ANYTHING for my length, and not much for my volume either. Actually, it was a CLUMP mess and would make my eyelashes look VERY spidery, even with only 1 coat.
I tried using it again, wiping off the excess but the same happened. My eyelashes looked short, spiky, spidery, crunchy and not very volumized, but very black, yes. And a second coat was out of question. Someone told me to wait 1-2 weeks for the formula to thicken up. Really? For the price, that's unacceptable. I returned it and instead I got Diorshow which I am enjoying!

This is definitely among the best mascaras I have used.
It gives you full, black lashes and even lifts them. I wear it with Estee Lauder mascara primer to get extra body, but it's good on its own as well.
You have to use a light hand and apply it in a zig-zag motion, otherwise it will be clumpy, as other users have said.
BUT as long as you use a light hand and work quickly, you will get beautiful, volumised, separated lashes. THe color is also proper black, not greyish like other mascaras can be. Like I said it gives a lift to your lashes, and if you curl them before putting this on it will also hold the curl throughout the day.
It crumbles if you wear greasy skincare or if you rub your eyes, but otherwise it wears just fine. It comes off in a swish if you splash your face with water first and then remove it with a moistened cotton disc and eye makeup remover.
The only negative thing I have to say about this is that it is scented, which I suppose could create problems for people with sensitive eyes (I'm fine, though).
All in all I really recommend it!

I have the sample sized version of this and I love it!!
I am surprised that it's not getting higher-rated reviews.
The most prominent result is the volume it gives your lashes.
Very dark and longlasting. Pair this with MAC's Lash Primer and you're good to go for the entire day.

I honestly don't see how someone can give this mascara one or two stars, I absolutely love this mascara! It makes my eyelashes look sooo long and full (that's the reason for the "weird" shape it has, as said in other reviews. Lol)
It is true that it will flake up and fall in your eyes, only if you've had it for awhile. Also, you can't dunk the brush back and forth really fast and then try to apply it like I see a lot of girls do. Too much air will get into it and it can clump up very, very easily. Lastly the price is awfully high, and I completely understand why some people can't afford to spend nearly thirty dollars on a tube of mascara.
Even with all of the previsions and the price, this is my all time favorite mascara. I have other mascaras that I like, but this makes my eyelashes look so thick and dramatic, and it lasts all day. The only reason why I gave it a 4 instead of 5 was because of the price, but I love it so much that I buy a tube whenever I have extra cash, because it just makes my eyes look so pretty.

Dennis Rodman, the original fashion-forward NBA superstar, is doing either everything he can to stay in the public eye. Not only has he sung the praises of one of the nation's biggest and most dangerous enemies for some people's taste, but he is getting a little profane when talking about the President.
Oh--and he thinks he can actually become a diplomat just because he wants to.
Not everyone loves Obama of course, but even some of his detractors will not take to kindly to hearing someone--anyone--talk about the leader of the nation the way he has.
"We got a black president [who] can't even go talk to [Kim]" Rodman said, adding "Obama can't do sh*t, I don't know why he won't go talk to him."
Now there have been plenty that have said more, but I would not be shocked if some will use it as an excuse to write the former NBA star/reality personality off since he is who he is--one strange character.
Is it right? If it's because of his beliefs then yes (since we are...

http://voices.washingtonpost.com/the-trail/2008/10/06/keating_inquiry_appears_differ.html Keating Inquiry Appears Different, 17 Years Later Updated 2:56 p.m. By Michael D. Shear Sometimes in politics, memories fail. In a conference call with reporters, attorney John Dowd was asked about a specific part of the Keating Five inquiry, the fact that Cindy McCain and her father had invested in a Keating strip mall. "It was part of the inquiry, but it did not -- John was unconnected to that and unaware of it at the time, and did not participate in it," Dowd said. But thanks to the quick research skills of Democratic partisans, here's John McCain's answer to an attorney who asked him about that very investment during the ethics committee hearings in 1991. "Sometime in 1986, I was told by Mr. Delgado, who was Executive Vice President of my father-in-law's company, that they were going to invest in a shopping center and that the investment -- the project -- was being put together by a subsidiary of American Continental," McCain said. "He later told me that they -- that that had happened. And I had no interest in it and just noted in passing that this investment took place." The attorney asking the question during the hearing? John Dowd.
Robert Bennett, the Democrat lawyer serving as special council to the Senate Ethics Committee investigating the Keating five, wanted Senators McCain and John Glenn removed from the investigation since they had obviously done nothing wrong (after over a year of investigation). The ethics committee would not release them from the (then) upcoming hearings. And the reason they told him McCain specifically would never be released from hearings? They did not want to begin public hearings where all the defendants were Democrats. They wanted a "bi-partisan" group of defendants. So in effect McCain was dragged into that mess as an act of political affirmative action. He was the "token" Republican. That was pretty much what Bennett was told by the Ethics Committee.

I used this service to find a gift for my friend who's sewer pipe burst into her house! I needed a fancy gift that would make her feel good and forget about all the clean-up and construction. She found the coolest gifts for me, they were so unexpected and unique. I ended up getting her a limited edition screenprint of a girl with an umbrella (a rainy day) that my friend LOVED. It was so quick too, I had 3 choices for me to choose from in a day. Stories of Gen is a godsend!!

7x10mm squatty bicone
6mm pearl
silver sequin
18mm pearl
silver sequin
6mm pearl
7x10mm squatty bicone
6mm pearl
8mm pearl
6mm pearlBead Set (the following set of beads will be repeated; 5 sets make the center of the strand):
3- 4x6mm spacers
a silver bugle on each strand separately (these will lie side by side)
3 – 4x6mm spacers
6mm pearl
8mm pearl
6mm pearl - End the strand threading beads in reverse from the first section so both sides match.

An 18-year-old woman was murdered in Nirpuda village in Uttar Pradesh's Baghpat district on Sunday, allegedly by her husband and brother to preserve "family honour." Kapil, said to be her lover, was also attacked. He, however, survived after the assailants fled presuming he was dead.
"Both Dharmendra [husband] and Nitin [brother] have been arrested and sent to jail. We are investigating the case," Superintendent of Police J.K. Shahi told The Hindu on Monday.
Puja and Kapil, both belonging to the same caste, were allegedly in a relationship for several years. Puja was forcibly married off to Dharmendra of Badrakha village recently.
She returned to her parents' house a few days ago.
Puja's husband and brother were infuriated when they learnt she was at Kapil's house. In a frenzy, the duo murdered Puja and assaulted Kapil. Presuming that Kapil had died in the attack, they fled the place.
Villagers, who reached the spot, found Kapil alive and rushed him to the hospital. His condition is reported to be stable.

Oh man great game... only bad thing is that it kept me up till 2:40 am.... and also, at least for the normal mode there isnt an ending once i've completed everything... felt kind of ripped but its a great game. I thought I would have had no chance on the last level, when I saw not two... but three... I luckily had enough money saved to take it down.
I guess 10/10 for a gameplay, and it needs more character development and cutscenes.

Knowing Your Exit Strategy First
Excerpt from the Real Estate Investing Quadrant Success System
The first thing you do in any investment is to decide what type of investment it will be and what you're going to do with the property. Will you turn the deal over to another investor for a quick finder's fee, or will you fix the property up and sell it retail to a homebuyer who will live in it. Maybe you'll want to keep the property as an income-producing rental, or maybe you'll create a no money down deal for

Real Estate Professionals: Five Ways Using a Coach Leverages Your Talents to Grow Your Business in Challenging Markets
We're a special breed. Approximately ninety percent of all real estate salespeople and managers have behavioral styles that are highly aggressive and/or promotional. That's not like the normal population! We salespeople types like people and we charge ahead (my motto is, when all else fails, read the directions......). Only fifty percent of the normal population exhibits those behavioral styles. Other styles are more task focused and embrace procedure (those are the staff people and assistants

Tough Times: Should You Hire A Professional Coach Now?
As you're undoubtedly aware, coaching has become a big thing in the world of business. However, you may be one of those who says, "I'm just hanging in there. How would I ever afford a coach?"
But, my experience has shown me that almost everyone benefits most from coaching when they think they can't afford it!
Why? Because good coaching is motivational. More than that, it is downright inspirational. And, when do you need inspiration? When things aren't going right. In other words,

Building trust with homebuyers
In hundreds of sales offices at new housing developments across North Texas this weekend, the same dance between prospective homebuyers and home sales staff will be played out over and over. The hopeful homebuyers will be greeted at the sales office by an enthusiastic salesperson. The homebuyers will hold up their hands and say, "We're just looking" or "What are you going to do for me?"
When there were more buyers than homes for sale, this was less of an issue for the sales staff. They

Tough Times: How To Choose The Right Coach For You
In the world of business today, professional coaching is 'in'. But, to be sustainable, it must more than just a fad. I think coaching actually is filling a long term 'need' in today's world. Why? Because we all need focus and direction. We need this focus and direction especially during tough times. Because, during challenge, it's easy to lose our self-confidence. We need that extra lift that a great coach can give us-that motivation and inspiration.

The submitter called this a "Duckaurus" we think that name is a total win! A+ for the repair too, they got it right and the tape matched the car.

The submitter wrote: "I noticed this at around 34000 feet. There was more of it missing when we landed. That's right folks it's duct tape on a plane at 30 something thousand feet traveling at almost 500 miles per hour. Spirit should know duct tape is only rated for 100 mph."
Now I will add that I have learned over time that there is a FAA tape called "Speed Tape" that is used on planes and looks like duct tape. I still wouldn't want to see that out the window of my plane.

Dale Jarrett Racing Adventure places novice passengers alongside professional drivers for ride-along experiences on Talladega Superspeedway. At 2.66 miles around, Talladega Superspeedway is the largest oval racetrack in the Sprint Cup Series and is well-known throughout motorsports. Passengers circumnavigate the speedy circle at speeds of up to 175 mph aboard real racecars once owned by such drivers as Mark Martin, Michael Waltrip, and Bobby Labonte. Before embarking, riders receive safety training and suit up in a full fire suit complete with a helmet with facemask and Hans Device, the same head restraint used by professional heavy-metal guitarists. Talladega Superspeedway is located next to the International Motorsports Hall of Fame, which is open daily to visitors.
The NASCAR Racing Experience's team of driving instructors specializes in NASCAR-themed Cinderella stories: at whichever world-famous speedway they're visiting, they give civilians the chance to drive real NASCAR race cars that have actually been raced by NASCAR superstars for a few hours. That means getting behind the wheel of a real NASCAR race car that's been driven by Dale Jr, Jeff Gordon, Jimmie Johnson and other NASCAR favorites and putting the pedal to the medal. Unlike other racing experiences, there?s no lead car to follow here, you're driving by yourself and yes, passing is allowed! The instructors still offer guidance though, coaching those driving solo over a two-way car radio, and speed-chauffeuring racing enthusiasts around the track on ride-alongs.
Eight bags. Two platforms. Two six-inch holes. One distinctly American game. The origins of cornhole are shrouded in mystery. Some say it derives from a German game, while others claim it is a descendant of a similar sport played by Native Americans. But one thing is certain?it's serious business. That's why the American Cornhole Organization was formed in 2005. By setting the rules, establishing annual tournaments and competitions, and firmly banning the practice of using trained birds to dunk bags, these referees have codified the sport and elevate it to a professional level.
Heralded in Tanning Trends magazine, True Colors Tanning introduces skin to advanced bronzing technologies at a number of Louisville-area and southern Indiana locations. Each of the five levels of standup and lie-down ultraviolet-tanning beds is equipped with specialized cooling systems and ergonomic surfaces to maximize client comfort. Alternatively, experienced staffers can apply airbrushed tans or spray tans by Australian Gold in the time it takes to count 180 seconds using a laser-guided system.
Since 1962, the motor mavens at Big O Tires have been treating tin lizzies to a slew of services, including their specialty 30-minute express oil changes. The tireless techs speedily slurp out old oil with anteater-esque precision, replacing worn out filters, and rewarding loyal dip sticks with up to 5 quarts of new crude. Following a chassis lubrication, wheel wranglers remove each tire, before moving them and their entire DVD collection to a new home in an adjacent wheel well, helping to guarantee even wear and tear. After a thorough fluid check and preventative maintenance analysis, revamped rides are happily reunited with the owners to depart together into the sunset. Upgrades are available for diesel oil (price based on vehicle and location), high-mileage oil ($10–$15 extra), and synthetic oil ($20–$30 extra).

Virginia Transfer Paul Jesperson Should Provide Strong Impact For Northern Iowa Panthers
Paul Jesperson began his career at Virginia, but after two quick years, the 6-foot-6 guard has opted to change locations.
On Tuesday morning, Jesperson's intentions went public and the Wisconsin-native is headed to the Missouri Valley Conference where he will play for head coach Ben Jacobson and the Northern Iowa Panthers. Jesperson is a great pickup, especially here in mid-June.
After struggling to get any sort of rhythm going at Virginia, Jesperson's decision to transfer certainly didn't come as any shock. Jesperson didn't play much as a freshman and although he did see an increase in his minutes as a sophomore, it didn't do much to jog his thought process overall. As a sophomore, Jesperson averaged 4.7 points and 2.2 rebounds in just over 25 minutes of action per game.
Per NCAA rules, Jesperson will be forced to sit out the 2013-14 season barring a waiver. He will be able to hit the court and play the following season and will have two years of eligibility remaining.
At 6-foot-6, Jesperson has great size and he should be able to fit in well within the Panthers' rotation once he can play again. As a former top 100 recruit, you know that Jesperson is a true talent. He was ranked as the 89th best prospect within the class of 2011 by ESPN coming out of high school.
Once Jesperson gets eligible to take the court, he could surely be an instant contributor and impact performer for Northern Iowa. If he can find his niche in the Missouri Valley Conference and meet the hype that he had coming out of high school, it will be interesting to see just how much Jesperson can emerge at UNI.
