KNOXVILLE, Tenn. (AP/WMOT) — University of Tennessee officials say prayer before football games at Neyland Stadium does not violate the U.S. Constitution.
According to The Knoxville News Sentinel, the university is preparing a formal response to a letter from the Freedom From Religion Foundation (FFRF). University spokeswoman Margie Nichols says the administration believes there is no reason to halt the tradition of a pre-kickoff invocation.
Annie-Laurie Gaylor is co-president of the Madison, Wisconsin, based FFRF.
MURFREESBORO, TENN. (HUBBARD) -- WMOT continues to explore what the fall football season might have in store for Tennessee schools. University of Tennessee fans haven't had a lot to cheer about in recent seasons, but there is some reason for Vols fans to be optimistic in 2012.
Tennessee stumbled through a 5-7 season in 2011 and ended it with a humiliating loss to rival Kentucky.
Lost in the poor record was Tennessee's solid defense.
The defense was ranked 27th nationally and helped the team stay competitive in games against Georgia and South Carolina.
MURFREESBORO, Tenn (NELSON) -- Student volunteers from Middle Tennessee State University are headed to Japan to help with the nation's ongoing disaster recovery.
Ten students and two professors from MTSU left the Mid-State Monday morning to participate in a restoration mission in Fukushima, Japan.
According to a press statement from Middle Tennessee State, 95 percent of the rubble remains to be cleared away following the March 2011 earthquake, tsunami, and nuclear meltdown that killed nearly 16,000 people.
MURFREESBORO, Tenn. (WMOT) -- Fire Departments throughout Tennessee are having trouble finding and keeping volunteers, and that may impact what you pay for home-owners insurance, or even put your family at increased risk.
Kevin Lauer is a fire management consultant with the University of Tennessee's County Technical Assistance Service. He says fire fighting is a difficult and dangerous job that requires a significant time commitment and volunteers are getting harder to come by.

.- Police in Independence, Missouri have arrested a rifle-toting teenage burglary suspect who was chased into the woods by a religious sister on Thursday morning.
The 17-year-old suspect had broken into one home around 6:00 and another at about 6:30 in the morning, authorities told Missouri's NBC Action News. Both houses were occupied at the time of the break-ins but no one was injured.
However, a gun was reported missing from the second home.
Sister Catarina of the Sisters of St. Francis Convent told NBC Action News that she saw the suspect through a convent window. He was holding a rifle and walking through a nearby field.
She and another sister named Sister Connie went out to approach the suspect, who they first thought may have been an illegal hunter.
At first the young man was pleasant to speak with, Sister Catarina reported. When the two sisters started asking questions about what he was doing, he ran away through the woods.
Sister Catarina chased the teenager but could not keep up with him. The suspect was later apprehended and was expected to be charged on Friday.

The university has strong links to entrepreneurs in Thailand, through its founding body the Thai Chamber of Commerce. It serves in various advisory functions across many Asean countries. The university's Business School is accredited by the US Accreditation Council for Business Schools and Programs.[1]
The university has the longest history of private higher education in Thailand. It was founded in 1940 by the Thai Chamber of Commerce as the College of Commerce, initially offering a six month and a two year study program for 300 students. It reopened in 1963, after its closure in 1941 following the Japanese invasion and occupation of Thailand. On 17 June 1970, the College was formally accredited under the Private College Act. In 1967, the first bachelor's degree programs were offered and in 1973 it moved to its present location in Bangkok's Din Daeng District.

As the leading university in business education in Asia, the university emphasises on producing graduates, with high academic and business ability and ethics, as well as providing reliable academic research in the area of business and society.

The university provides bachelor, master and doctoral level degree programmes.[2] It offers a low faculty-student ratio and small class sizes, with academic programmes developed to enhance students' skills and knowledge.

What are flower essences?
Flower essences are herbal infusions or decoctions, made from the flowering part of the plant, which uniquely address emotional and mental aspects of wellness. The first 38 flower remedies were formulated by a British physician, Dr. Edward Bach, in the 1930's, although new remedies from other plant species are now available.
How do I use flower essences ?
They are typically taken orally from a dropper bottle; the standard dosage is four drops four times daily. You can take the drops directly from stock bottles available in stores; mix them in a glass of water; or make a dosage bottle by mixing several drops with water and brandy (typically 1/4 ounce) in a one ounce dropper bottle. When mixing in a dosage bottle or glass of water, take two drops from each essence selected. There are many others ways of using them, such as in misting sprayers, in a cream base, or in baths.
Positive qualities: Tranquility and inner equilibrium; inner confidence for the future due to the soul's understanding of prior experiences; peaceful acceptance of life experiences.
Patterns of imbalance: Shallow breathing due to anxiety about the future; nervous agitation or insomnia; worry and unease when facing future live events that are viewed as challenging; addiction to sleeping pills or tranquilizers.
Water, brandy, infusion (1:6000) of valeriana capitata ssp. california organic and 40% alcohol.
Add 2 drops to water and take 4 times daily.

When you step into Atmosphere Essentials, admiring the boutique's Victorian-style decor, intoxicating array of make-your-own perfumes, and the pictures of beloved family members on the wall, you probably wouldn't guess that the cottage's cozy interior is also home to a high-tech laboratory. That's where owner Antonio Sciortino creates his natural home and body products, a talent handed down to him by his Palermo-born ancestors. According to StatenIslandLifestyle.com, Sciortino's grandmother began making natural skincare remedies to help cope during difficult, post-war times. The innovative on-site lab allows him to share his family secrets and 15 years of research on a broader scale. Therein, his team produces 100% certified-organic formulas made with botanicals and essential oils, which are then blended into soy candles, lotions, and eco-friendly baseball-mitt softener.
In the upper echelons of the intimate spa and hair salon, massage therapists and aestheticians use the line in a variety of relaxing spa treatments. As documented by Fox News, some of Sciortino's products have also been inspired by Mexican painter Frida Kahlo's natural beauty and penchant for aromatherapy.
Tall, mahogany workstations line Mia Passione, holding the tools of trend-setting stylists at work on unruly locks. Armed with products from Brazilian Blowout and Enjoy, the team imbues hair with smoothness, color, volume, or the permanent ability to look wind-blown.
LaVida Massage of Staten Island plays the role of matchmaker by assessing clients' needs and pairing them with the massage that will meet their goals. A person dealing with a sports injury may find themselves best suited for the rigorous pressure of a deep-tissue massage, whereas a stressed-out office worker may mesh well with the essential oils of an aromatherapy massage.
Therapists also use a four-level system to help match the client with the amount of pressure they'd prefer during the treatment. For those who want to extend their stay at the studio, LaVida dabbles in other areas of beautification, cleansing pores during signature facials, waxing unwanted hair, and gluing pages from fashion magazines all over a person's body.
Inside Belle Allure Salon & Spa, the stylists stay busy beautifying guests with hair, nail, and makeup services. The homey space features zebra-covered chairs and warm burgundy colors for a relaxing oasis before indulging in beauty treatments. Facials, massages, waxing, makeup, and full-body treatments are also available.

The Global Intelligence Files
On Monday February 27th, 2012, WikiLeaks began publishing The Global Intelligence Files, over five million e-mails from the Texas headquartered "global intelligence" company Stratfor. The e-mails date between July 2004 and late December 2011. They reveal the inner workings of a company that fronts as an intelligence publisher, but provides confidential intelligence services to large corporations, such as Bhopal's Dow Chemical Co., Lockheed Martin, Northrop Grumman, Raytheon and government agencies, including the US Department of Homeland Security, the US Marines and the US Defence Intelligence Agency. The emails show Stratfor's web of informers, pay-off structure, payment laundering techniques and psychological methods.

Presented by Yevgeniy Revenko
1. 1600 This week: Russian pilots jailed in Tajikistan, what will the
Eurasian Union be like?, new ways of working for the police, Berlusconi
quits, follow-up to investigation exposing traffic police corruption.
2. 1602 Tajik court jails two Russian aircrew for carrying contraband
and illegally crossing the border. They have in effect been taken
hostage. Moscow has reacted strongly. Medvedev has ordered officials to
investigate the process and wants Tajikistan, an "ally", to answer.
There could be consequences, he says. Other senior politicians have
become involved and the Russian ambassador has been recalled. Now it
emerges that the Tajiks are seeking a diplomatic exit route, having been
surprised by the speed and strength of Moscow's response.
3. 1604 President Medvedev signs law for big pay rise for the military.
Video report begins with conscripts being instructed in mineclearing in
Moscow Region. Medvedev is shown announcing the pay rises - the average
is 2.5 times, starting from 1 January next year with a further phase the
following year. A colonel, at home with his family, explains what this
means to him: more things for the kids, ability to finish doing up the
flat. The nearby shops are nice but the officer and his family cannot
afford much of what is in them. But that is going to change. And the
money is there: Medvedev is shown meeting defence officials and saying
that the law has been long in the preparation. Better pay is the best
guarantee of a more professional and better military, he says. Ground
Troops CO Aleksandr Postnikov adds that all kit and uniform will be
supplied free of charge. Further initiatives are more housing for war
veterans and more money for ships and submarines - this part is
announced by Prime Minister Putin, who is shown in Severodvinsk! listing
topics for funding. Contracts worth billions of roubles were signed
while he was there. The correspondent stresses that taken together, all
this amounts to an unprecedented boost for the military and will enhance
its prestige.
4. 1611 Parades held in Moscow and Saratov this week to mark the turning
point of the war, when the Germans were at the gates of Moscow in 1941.
Video shows parades as Revenko recounts the history and a participant in
the 1941 parade reminisces.
5. 1614 The big event of the coming week is the signing of the Eurasian
Economic Commission, in Moscow.
Video report. Putin was quizzed about this at the Valday Club meeting
this week. He replies that the former Soviet countries are basically
following the path of the European Iron and Steel Community and European
Union in its earlier days. The report outlines the population and
economic figures, and notes that this new entity will be based on the
existing Customs Union which has done away with queues at the borders
and also boosted trade by one-third. The new community will further lift
economic ties and trade between Kazakhstan, Russia and Belarus. The
report recalls Putin speaking about it during an interview with TV
stations in October and goes back to the first mentions by Kazakhstan's
President Nazarbayev in 2003. Belarus and Kazakhstan are on board but
the Ukrainians have to decide whether to look to the EU or to the new
Eurasian body. The report looks at the EU's experience in aircraft
building and wonders if the new Eurasian body can emulate that. But i!
t's not a revival of the USSR, Putin tells the Valday Club. It's
basically a common market, Medvedev is shown saying in Astana in 2010.
6. 1621 Three weeks to go until the Duma elections and TV debates have
Video report with roundup of the week's campaigning. The first TV debate
was by Zhirinovskiy with himself as the others weren't there. Video
shows excerpts, with him saying about how the Russians get the worst
deal. This is clearly his main campaigning point, the correspondent
comments. Other politicians have been out on the stump. A Just Russia
stresses its opposition to One Russia, with Sergey Mironov meeting
voters in Astrakhan. Yabloko stresses the need for infrastructure
investment, as shown in a debate between its leader Sergey Mitrokhin and
A Just Russia. One Russia, meanwhile, is checking the conditions of
roads that it got funding for. The report also features a factory worker
in Chelyabinsk Region, who got Medvedev to intervene so his factory had
a canteen. The worker has now joined One Russia to show his
appreciation. One Russia is all about raising living standards and it
stands for the future, another party figure says in another debate. The
Commu! nists' Zyuganov speaks on TV against the flat tax rate in Russia
and calls for incremental taxation. This will fund the party's plans for
a technological breakthrough, he is then shown telling a party rally.
7. 1629 Still to come: new ways of working for the police, Russian
aircrew in Tajikistan, Berlusconi quits; commercials and trailers.
8. 1634 Linkup to correspondent in Honolulu for the APEC summit.
Medvedev meets Obama to discuss the WTO, on which they agree. On missile
defence, they remain a long way apart, Medvedev is shown saying, but he
thinks a deal is possible. At a press conference, he reiterates that the
Kurils are Russian land but the Japanese can invest there if they wish.
9. 1637 Nord Stream goes online this week.
Video report on the opening ceremony, outlining the scale and importance
of the project. Medvedev tells the gathering that Russian natural gas
will now help Europe with its energy security. The project was built
easily enough, the correspondent says, but it was a tougher job to reach
all the necessary agreements. The new pipeline bypasses Ukraine and
Belarus but their transit facilities will still be needed to meet
demand, a senior Gazprom official comments. And Nord Stream also means
that Europe will need to pay attention to the opinions of its eastern
10. 1642 Changes to the electricity prices mechanism in Russia. At
present, if you under- or overconsume electricity against an amount
assessed in advance, you pay a penalty. The government is abolishing
this from 1 January next year. Putin is shown saying that it will
particularly help small and medium businesses. Also this week, he opened
a major road in Novosibirsk.
11. 1643 Medvedev was in Khabarovsk two days ago, to discuss the sharing
of budget funds between the centre and regions.
Video report begins in Rostov Velikiy, in Yaroslavl Region. The local
administration head complains of a theatre needing rebuilding, but the
money is not there unless federal funds can be extracted from Moscow. In
Baltiysk, local housing issues are being resolved with federal money but
there is no local money for building the childcare facilities to go with
all the new flats. Medvedev announced that allocation of funds should be
in favour of local administrations, in a clear and transparent manner.
Development funds should be carefully accounted for and tied in to
specific projects and outcomes, he says. Another example is Kaluga
Region, where the economy is booming as new industries move in. Next
year this region will become profitable and therefore a donor region.
But that means it will lose federal subsidies. Local officials note the
contrariness of this. Another thing that Medvedev stressed while in
Khabarovsk was the accountability of governors for invest! ment and
development in their regions - the local authorities' role should
increase in this regard.
12. 1648 Interior Ministry personnel are in for a pay rise and amongst
other things will do away with the practice of needing witnesses for
everything they do.
Video report in Vyborg, to follow a policeman on patrol in search of
drugs users and dealers. The local force is a little depleted after not
all its members passed the recent re-appraisal exercise, the
correspondent notes. But in return for that Russia now has a
professional and highly-qualified police force, Medvedev is shown saying
at a meeting with Interior Ministry officials. And technology is helping
the police - Medvedev is also shown touring a CCTV control room. The
police will get better allowances and social guarantees, and a pay rise,
Medvedev also tells the police. The new police law, which came into
force in March, changes a number of working practices and obliges police
officers not to use force unless necessary. It also does away with the
need for witnesses to police procedures, who can often not be found.
Instead, recording devices will be used to ensure procedural compliance.
The report notes the dangers that police officers can face in the lin! e
of duty - an officer wounded in an operation in Dagestan describes what
happened to him. All these changes to the Interior Ministry will make
the police better at the their jobs and make them better off, Medvedev
says in conclusion.
13. 1655 Still to come: Russian aircrew in jail in Tajikistan,
Berlusconi quits, traffic police; commercials and trailers.
14. 1700 Two Russian pilots are given unusually harsh sentences for
contraband and illegal border crossing in Tajikistan.
Video report from Kurgan-Tyube, showing the men in the dock denying
their guilt after the sentences are pronounced. The prosecution was
apparently bungled and unfairly put all the blame on the pilots,
ignoring any culpability of the part of the aircraft's owners. There is
talk of the judge wanting a large bribe to let them go. A film crew
tries to get close to the aircraft, which are heavily guarded for fear
they will be seized, presumably by Russia. They are shown from a
distance, parked at an airfield. Russian politicians and public figures
join in the campaign for their release, and the pilots' lawyers say they
will appeal. Another member of the crew highlights what he says is an
absurd feature of the case: the crew had permission to fly from Kabul
and land at Kurgan-Tyube but did not have permission to cross the
border. Hence their arrest, he says. The report features both pilots'
elderly parents, who speak in emotional and tearful terms about how they
mis! s their sons. The parents of one of them live in Estonia; they
complain that their government has done little to help and they now pin
their hopes on Russia. Finally, in response to the strenuous reaction
from Russia, the Tajik president has said that he would like to see a
diplomatic way out of the situation in order to preserve friendly
relations with Russia. In the meantime, the appeal is due soon and the
men are in custody on remand.
After the report, Revenko says that his programme will follow the case
of "our pilots".
15. 1706 Silvio Berlusconi quits a prime minister of Italy after MPs
pass an austerity programme.
Video report from Italy recounting the course of events with
Berlusconi's resignation and the public celebrations. It also profiles
Berlusconi's often colourful and scandalous career and notes that he
remains a media proprietor and a very rich man. The new man in charge is
Mario Monti, who has to quickly form a government and please the
16. 1712 Patriarch Kirill visits Syria as the Arab League suspends that
country. Linkup to correspondent in Damascus, who recaps on the
anti-government protests. But after the Arab League's move, some foreign
embassies have been attacked. Kirill is shown meeting President al-Asad
and expressing concern at the situation of the Christian minority. The
correspondent also notes the long history of the Antioch Patriarchate.
Kirill has now moved on to Beirut.
17. 1715 A Rossiya 1 TV investigation earlier this year showed how easy
it is to buy or bribe your way to a driver's licence. Traffic police
officers were subsequently sacked.
Video report recaps on the original report and shows a transaction for a
licence. You are supposed to pass an exam but in exchange for payment
the computer at the police station is rigged to automatically register a
pass. Shortly afterwards the local traffic police chief invited the
correspondent, Arkadiy Mamontov, to visit the same police station and
thanked him for exposing the corruption. New officers have been brought
in from elsewhere so that the station can make a new start.
18. 1719 Trailer for this evening's Special Correspondent programme,
about population growth and maternity care in Russia.
19. 1720 Video report about the scientific achievements of Mikhail
20. 1725 Revenko signs off, programme ends.

Student Life
Tyler Sadonis: A Heart for Service
Letters to the Future
The blizzard unloaded enough snow on Syracuse to delay the second half of the area's high school Regents exam in English. State education officials ruled that schools would administer the entire test over again. One Facebook group and hundreds of appeal letters later, students were free to complete just the remaining second day of the exam.
A junior in high school at the time, this was Tyler Sadonis' first foray into politics. He created the letter writing campaign through social media outreach.
"I enjoyed seeing how you could put together a grassroots movement and something as small as sending a letter could affect change for the better and impact people all over the state," he says. "Coming to AU, I brought that experience with me."
Now 19 years old, the School of Public Affairs sophomore sees a path clearing through DC toward a career in politics, service, and social engagement – elements at the core of his university's mission.
Getting Out Votes
Sadonis – a Political Science major – wasted no time continuing his political career upon arriving to AU.
At the insistence of friends, he ran as a write-in candidate to represent AU students on the 3D Advisory Neighborhood Commission – a District panel that dictates neighborhood divisions and policies. He knocked on doors, inspired many to work with him, and accidentally broke a campaign finance law.
"It was quite a way to start off the first semester of my freshman year," Sadonis tells. "It was a learning curve, also testing to see if I wanted to do this for the rest of my life."
In the end, Sadonis didn't win the seat, but the hours invested were more than valuable. He gained insight into his career goals while revisiting experience as a high school intern for a mayoral campaign in his hometown of Syracuse. The time involved in both shifted his direction and priorities.
"I don't know if I want to be a candidate necessarily, but I've always been of the belief that we benefit as a society if we get more people involved," he says. "I still want to remain active in political causes, playing the role of making sure that anyone who wants to get involved can."
Remaining active is exactly what Sadonis has done, still attending Advisory Neighborhood Committee meetings with the District-wide student group DC Students Speak. He's also set his sights on what has become the defining focus of his college career – service.
Living to Serve
"It allows me to get out of the classroom, see things first hand and learn about issues I wouldn't have been aware of," Sadonis says of his love for service. "You can read about issues in a textbook and talk about them in class, but when you get out of the classroom and experience it first hand, it becomes much more meaningful."
Sadonis – also a TA in the School of Public Affairs Leadership Program – serves as the director of AU's Community Service Coalition, an organization that coordinated with 30 clubs and supported 87 events last year. From College Republican blood drives to arranging soldier care packages with AU Vets, the Coalition connects students, promotes engagement, and builds community around service events.
The Freshmen Service Experience (FSE) provided Sadonis' introduction to service at AU, sending him to work at an elementary school in Columbia Heights during his first days on campus. The event moved him enough to serve as one of five FSE coordinators this year, overseeing 600 freshmen, 100 upperclassmen leaders, and service projects at 50 nonprofits.
Of his decision to serve as a leader, he explains, "It seemed like a really great way to expand upon my knowledge of Washington DC and some of the social issues in the city and just be part of this twenty-plus year tradition of putting together the Freshmen Service Experience."
From leading FSE to becoming director of the Community Service Coalition and running for the ANC seat, Sadonis' efforts at American have been a huge success in one form or another. He believes AU has helped him find direction in these different ventures.
"The university's been incredibly supportive," he says. "The sense of importance the school places on social action – actually being invested in an issue and learning about it – really shows through."
While looking forward to a career in voter rights work, Sadonis also looks back at how he got his start – inspiring his peers through a high school letter campaign. Seeing that inspiration and commitment in others fuels Sadonis. It's something he noticed from the moment he came to American.
"AU has a student body that is passionate about issues. They sincerely want to – at some point in their lives – make the world a better place. That may sound cheesy," he says, "but I have that feeling when I'm here, and I had that feeling when I visited as a prospective student."
Surrounded by a campus that shares his passion, Sadonis shows nothing but promise and heart for a future he started writing years ago.

I just discovered a tiny lump in my anus while showering and wanted to hear if anyone has any idea what it might be.
It´s within the anus but before the muscle ring inside it. It is about as big as a lentil/ small pea and moves freely within a certain area, so it´s not attached to the muscle. Feels firm, not hot, no discharge or anything. Also no swelling and it is not visible to the eye. I just found it by chance while showering, no pain while going to the toilet, unusual stool or anything else. I am 27 by the way and din´t have anal intercourse recently (sadly).
My course of action will now be to monitor it for 2-3 days if it changes in any way and than see a Doc.
Now just out of curiosity I want to know if anyone has any idea/ had something like that himself? Yeah I googled and found everything from hemmorhoids, cancer, abscess and so on but about 80% doesn´t match with the symptoms.

More than two dozen states boast a fire safety requirement that experts think cuts the total of electrical fires in half and possibly saves lives. In 2005, Indiana became the only state to ever drop the requirement.
Now the governing body that sets Indiana's electrical code is set to take up the issue again, and some homebuilding interests are poised to fight it, arguing that the extra $300 to $400 on a $150,000 home is too steep, especially during a recession.

Government antitrust officials would be unwilling to see a newspaper monopoly in the Phoenix area, several newspaper industry experts said in the wake of Freedom Communications' decision to put its newspapers and television stations up for sale.
That would mean the government would probably move to block Gannett Co. from buying the East Valley Tribune and Scottsdale Tribune, which are owned by Freedom. Gannett, the nation's largest newspaper chain, already owns The Arizona Republic and KPNXTV (Channel 12).
If the experts are correct, Tribune readers and advertisers can be reassured that competition will continue to have a positive effect on local advertising rates, subscription prices and the quality of local news reporting.
The possibility of such a purchase is more than idle speculation.
When Freedom made the announcement March 6 that it would accept bids for the company in whole or in part, Vi rg inia-based Gannett responded eagerly that it was interested in buying.
With headquarters in Irvine, Calif., Freedom also owns 27 other daily newspapers, including its flagship, the Orange County Register, eight television stations and 37 weekly newspapers. Some estimates put Freedom's value at up to $2 billion.
Analysts believe that Gannett is best poised among a small group of potential bidders to close a deal with Freedom. And the company, known for its aggressive practices in acquiring businesses, has a habit of eliminating the competition when it can, industry watchers said.
"My gut impression is that if Gannett bought Freedom, one of the business-side rational things would be to shut down the Tribune," said Steve Doig, a journalism professor at Arizona State University. "I would say it would impact the community. Any loss of an independent media voice is not a good thing to happen."
The statewide Arizona Republic is much larger than the Tribune by daily average circulation, but the two papers go head-to-head in the East Valley. (According to Scarborough readership surveys, about 213,000 people read the Tribune each day.) That competition means Valley residents get better
information from more diverse sources, Doig said.
The Tribune makes the Republic less complacent about serving its customers and in recent years has forced the larger newspaper to put extra resources in Scottsdale and the East Valley to help stay competitive, he said.
Advertisers also rely on competition between newspapers to help keep rates lower.
Such factors weighed heavily in a recent decision by the U.S. Justice Department to discipline two alternative weekly newspaper companies, one of which was the Phoenix-based New Times.
In that case, New Times and Village Voice Media of New York, both of which had owned alternative weeklies in Los Angeles and Cleveland, each agreed to close a paper and leave one company dominant in each city. Previously, as court records note, intense competition between the two companies had once resulted in better ad rates, editorial content and service for readers in Cleveland and Los Angeles.
The Justice Department fined each company about $375,000 and required them to sell the assets of each closed newspaper to companies that would revive them and create competition once again.
John Morton, a nationally recognized media consultant from Maryland, said the odds are "very slim" the government would let Gannett purchase the Tribune as part of the Freedom package.
"The Justice Department has allowed metro dailies to acquire suburban weeklies, but not a substantial daily operation like yours," Morton told the Tribune.
Ralph Spritzer, a senior lecturer at ASU's College of Law, said that under the 89-year-old federal Clayton Act, actions that produce a "substantial lessening of competition" in commerce are not allowed. An important question the government would have to consider is the nature of the market served by the companies, Spritzer said.
"In TV, there's a fair amount of competition, but in newspapers, if I live in Tempe and I want local news other than the Tribune and the Republic, what else is there? " Spritzer said.
If Gannett moved to purchase Freedom, the wide publicity of the deal might cause antitrust prosecutors in the Justice Department to proactively launch an investigation of the Tribune issue, newspaper and legal experts said. Or, the companies might inform the government of the situation when they submit mandatory antitrust disclosure forms required in transactions of more than $50 million.
Another possibility is that the state Attorney General's Office, which also investigates antitrust issues, would play a role.
Tribune publisher Karen Wittmer, who is the former publisher of two Gannett newspapers in California and New Jersey, said "anyone with a rational mind" should understand why it is good to have the Tribune to compete with the Gannett paper.
"Our elimination would benefit them greatly," Wittmer said. "The laws on the books are there for a good reason."
When Gannett tried to close the Honolulu Star-Bulletin in 1999, which would have left the Gannett-owned Honolulu Advertiser the only newspaper in the city, community members rose up in protest, and that state's attorney general asked the federal government to stop the deal.
Once the government gets involved, a potential sale of Freedom to Gannett could be delayed by bureaucracy, said Todd Miller, a Washington, D.C.-based lawyer who provided legal assistance to the Star-Bulletin. The government, if it acts, would likely allow Gannett to acquire Freedom only if it agrees to then sell off the Tribune as well as the affiliated Daily News-Sun in the West Valley, Miller said. In theory, the government would then be required to review the new buyer thoroughly to ensure the Tribune would continue to be a competent competitor of Gannett's.
Knowing the Tribune could make a sale problematic, savvy dealmakers at Gannett and Freedom are likely to use a "fix it first" approach, taking care of antitrust concerns before the government can raise them, Miller said.
"They'll say, 'We're not going to acquire the Tribune at all,' " he said.
In Hawaii, the Star-Bulletin's troubled financial picture made for a "stranger circumstance" than the Tribune would face in any antitrust issue, Miller said. The federal Newspaper Preservation Act, which governs joint business operations between two newspapers when one is failing, does not apply in this case because the Tribune is profitable.
"That makes it more likely Gannett will have a very tough time" acquiring the Tribune, Miller said.
Still, some media experts said the conservative, pro-business Bush administration won't want to help the Tribune. As an example, they point to industry predictions that the Federal Communications Commission will soon lift restrictions on single ownership of newspapers and television stations in the same markets.
"I don't think this is a very good climate for people to be opposing media consolidation," said Sante Fe, N.M.-based journalist Richard McCord. "It's a very real possibility that Gannett could buy your company."
McCord, author of "The Chain Gang: One Newspaper Versus the Gannett Empire," said he is "no friend of Gannett" following battles he helped waged to prevent the media giant from taking over two small newspapers. If Gannett wants the Tribune, Gannett will fight hard for it, he said.
"Gannett's newer strategy has been to pin down geographic dominance," he said. "They've started staking out states where, if they can round up significant markets, they will be dominant in that state. These include New Jersey and Wisconsin."
A spokeswoman for Gannett, Tara Connell, said it was "incredibly premature" to speculate on those details, or even whether Gannett would bid on Freedom.
"My heart goes out to you, but it's just way too early," Connell said. "We don't know what the price is yet. Can we afford it? We don't know."
Gannett has succeeded in turning two-newspaper cities into onenewspaper ones. While the Star-Bulletin still competes with Gannett in Honolulu, other newspapers, such as the Nashville Banner, now live only on microfiche at the library. In 1998, Gannett paid the Banner's owners $65 million to shut down the newspaper, allowing the Gannettowned Tennessean to run without competition.
U.S. Justice Department officials and Arizona Attorney General Terry Goddard declined to comment on the possibilities involving a Freedom sale to Gannett, saying it was too speculative to discuss.
Freedom Chief Executive Alan Bell also said it was early to discuss such matters.
Bell said many of the roughly 60 family members with voting rights and ownership in the company are not necessarily interested in selling the whole company outright. The decision to put the company out for bids is an attempt to satisfy some family members who want to cash out, and there are other options to consider besides a single deal with Gannett, he said.
A merger with a larger company, or a sale of parts of the company to several separate buyers, is just as likely at this point, Bell said.
"There's a long, long road ahead," Bell said. "You may be talking about stuff that may never happen."

Just as that kid put himself in a position to BE killed.... See, it just goes 'round & round...

NASA moon bombing successful. Did we find water?
(Read article summary)NASA successfully bombed the moon on Friday ending the LCROSS mission. Now scientists will begin their search for water.
NASA did it. NASA bombed the moon.
Its LCROSS mission punched two new craters in the moon this morning, and only about a minute behind schedule (see video below).
As for whether LCROSS kicked up evidence for water on the moon (the object of the exercise), the jury is still out.
It will take scientists a couple of weeks to figure out if the shadowed area of Cabeus crater holds any water ice. Visually, not much seemed to happen. Michael Bicay, the science director a NASA's Ames Research Center said: "It's hard to tell what we saw here."
But if the science team does find water? How do you get at it, especially if it's covered with moon dust? Just nuke it in a microwave!
That's an approach Ed Ethridge and his colleagues are experimenting with at NASA's Marshall Space Flight Center in Hunstville, Ala. It's a way of turning radio waves into a wringer.
Using simulated moon dirt, they found that under very cold, moon-like temperatures and in a vacuum, a standard household microwave oven would heat the lunar soil, causing ice that had condensed on the soil's grains to change directly from solid directly to gas. By trapping and cooling the gas, they got liquid water.

What's In Your Personal Discontinued Beauty Products Hall of Fame?

First I enter a stage of shock and denial. Then I run to every drugstore within a two-mile radius, frantically scooping up everything left on the shelves--Supermarket Sweep-style.
What's your favorite beauty product that died and went to beauty product heaven? And what did you replace it with?

As planned, Ultrapetrol continues its newbuilding program in India that will add capacity to our Offshore fleet. We expect to take delivery of the first of the remaining two PSVs, UP Pearl, during the second quarter of 2013.
We entered into new four-year time charters with Petrobras for our UP Agua-Marinha, UP Diamante and UP Topazio at significantly higher rates than their expiring contracts while we extended the charter for UP Esmeralda for another four years. In addition, both UP Amber (on its way from India to Brazil) and UP Pearl have been contracted for four years to Petrobras. These new contracts and vessels are expected to produce substantial additional EBITDA.
The Company believes that the Brazilian market will grow in-line with Petrobras' aggressive capital expenditure plans. Ultrapetrol's fleet has the advantage of being very modern and technologically capable of supporting deep sea oil drilling in Brazil as well as the North Sea.
The Ocean Business segment generated adjusted EBITDA of $0.2 million in the first quarter of 2013 as compared to adjusted EBITDA of $0.1 million in the same period of 2012. For a reconciliation of segment adjusted EBITDA to operating profit (loss), please see the tables at the end of this release. The 7% decrease in revenues from $18.1 million to $16.9 million is mainly attributable to the transportation of the nineteen barges and one pushboat sold to a third party to Colombia during the first quarter of 2012; partially offset by a revenue increase from our Amadeo related to its drydock during the first quarter of 2012, to an increase in revenues from our Argentino, and to higher charter rates of our Product Tankers during the first quarter of 2013 when compared to the same period of 2012. The Company operated a total of four vessels in its Product Tanker fleet in the first quarter of 2013 ( Miranda I, Amadeo, Alejandrina, and Austral) which continue to be employed in the South American coastal trade on charters with major oil refineries that operate in the region. The volumes in our container feeder service, particularly in the southbound leg, have been sustained at high levels.Check Out Our Best Services for Investors

I have been attacked repeatedly by deer over the last six weeks! First they pulled one of my Rebutia out of the pot and ate the blooms. They must have thrashed it around every time they got poked because it was full of bruises and as of today looks like it didn't make it. Then they took my Euphorbia Silver Thicket! Took it! All I found was the pot about 30 yards away! And now they come through last night and not only knocked over a bunch of plants but also ate a huge chunk out of my Euphorbia leucodendron! This plant I have had for about 2 years and is one of my favs and was about 2 foot at the tallest part. Now only about 18 inches.
I hate deer! Time to finish the fence! Glenn |

Very interesting, Glenn. I have had the flowers eaten off several of my cactus recently and attributed this problem to my local chipmunk crowd. They have also taken chunks out of some of the plants in addition to the flowers. But maybe it is the deer population??????? |
I was so upset over the Euphorbia stenoclada disappearing, but my wonderful wife actually found another one and gave it to me today for father's day. |

My sisters and BIL's in N.Y. are constantly battleing deer,they eat everything in site,they even came up on one sisters porch and ate what she had in hanging baskets.They have everything people have told them to doto try and discourage them.One BIL went to the 99 cent store,bought a case of irish spring soap,drilled holes in them and hung them all around his garden,it worked for a short while,then i guess they became immune to it. MY BIL was always complaining about them so much,that i went out and bought some fabric with deer all over it and made him a throw blanket,and on the back i put "for the love of Bambi",as he was always saying he wished he could shoot that da** Bambi.My sister was supposed to take a picture when he opened it,but she forgot!! bummer,as i'm sure that was a priceless picture. PS i guess we all fight something,for us it's those darn Gophers,hate them. |
Sorry to hear that your plant collection is turning into a woodland critter salad bar. The deer eat everything here, even "deer resistant" plants. They ate castor in my yard too, as well as daturas and brugmansias. I make a spray of garlic, eggs, oil and water that works well but needs constant reapplication. Even if it doesn't rain the morning dew will wash it away in a few days.The only thing that really works for me is an electric fence which we have at the farm but we can't use one around our house. I could just see the neighborhood kids bumping into it and getting zapped. |

God I can commiserate. Euphorbia!! then must like to live dangerously. I hate deer and coons, and my neighbors cows. I know HATE is a strong word, but I hate deer and cows the most. They have been helicoptering over my six foot fence into my vegetable garden. They just nipped off a bunch of natives that had just showed their heads. I need to plant a pokey yucca there. My neighbors cows got in and ate a 6' x 6' old Mexico Prickly pear, all 15 large bamboo muhly, a 4' nolina nelsonii, 3 texas sotols, six collected prickly pears from Oklahoma, a Cylindropuntia kleinae. I can scream at those cows and the bull just looks at me and I can hear it thinking, should I charge. or say thank you for the goodies, I raised the fence another foot and told my neighbor to fix his fence good this time. He gave his cows away. |
I will be wrapping the back yard with a 6 foot wooden privacy fence. An Ol' Timer told the deer would not jump a fence if they could not see the other side. I have talked with a couple of people that live close with fences and it seems to hold true. So about half of the yard is done but it will take me another 6 months to finish out the other half. Until then I think I will be moving most of the plants to the side yard which is fenced with a chain-link fence but has a nice big dog in there. ; ) Thank God I don't have to worry about cows, and the coons have been removed a few years back when they attacked the chickens. I do have to keep an eye out for my wifes pigmy goats, but they tend to stay in their area pretty good. No bucks so the girls are pretty well behaved. Glenn |

10 Most beatuiful tree tunnels in the world
3.Tunnel of Love,Ukraine
The Ukrainian Tunnel of Love is actually a two-mile sector of private railway that serves a woodworking plant near Klevan,a small city located in western Ukraine.I read somewhere that couples pass through this romantic tunnel to make a wish.The myth goes that,if their love is strong and pure,the wish will come true.
May all of your wishes come true,but watch out for the train!It runs three times a day through the leafy tunnel.
4.Bamboo Path,Japan
The Sagano Bamboo Forest is located in Arashiyama,a nationally-designated historic site.The pathway you see in the above picture is 500m long,and runs through one of Japan's most beautiful bamboo forests.No wonder the Agency for Cultural A ffairs declared Arashiyama a "Place of Scenic Beauty" This forest is close to many famous temple and shrines,including the Adashino Nenbutsu-ji Temple.
The sound the wind makes,as it blows through the tall bamboo trees,has been voted by the Japanese authorities as one of 100 must-preserve sounds of Japan.

A country boy from Tamworth, Hazlewood became the youngest fast-bowler ever to represent New South Wales when, aged just 17, he was handed a first-class debut against the touring New Zealanders in 2008.
An international debut followed in 2010, aged 19, when he took on England in an ODI in Southampton, becoming the youngest Australian player at that level. His rapid rise started when he earned a rookie contract with the Blues when still in high school, despite not having played Sydney grade cricket.
Sometimes compared to his idol Glenn McGrath, Hazlewood was man-of-the-match in the final of Australia's successful campaign at the Under-19 World Cup in New Zealand.
A stocky right-armer who gets plenty of bounce out of his 196cm frame, Hazlewood's best first-class performance came in the 2014 Sheffield Shield final when he took 6-50 against Western Australia.
Despite being hampered by several injury concerns in his young career, Hazlewood is expected to have a bright future for Australia at all levels of the game.
