Two Chattanooga teens were given six-year prison sentences on Tuesday by Criminal Court Judge Don Poole for a shooting at a bus stop and the ensuing high speed chase.
Witnesses said Lonta Montrell Burress Jr., 18, and Darius Jerel Gustus, 19, fired shots at several high school students on Dec. 7, 2010, after they got off a school bus. They then tried to evade police as Burress drove 80 miles plus per hour down McCallie Avenue before the chase ended on Willow Street when the stolen truck he was driving rolled over numerous times. The students at the bus stop were not injured.
Burress and Gustus were each sentenced on three counts of aggravated assault and evading arrest. Burress was convicted for theft of property valued over $1,000, while Gustus was also convicted of possession of a deadly weapon and reckless endangerment.
Burress, who is awaiting trial for the July 2011 murder of Darius Townsend, and Gustus sat quietly during the hearing. The teens both had extensive Juvenile Court records along with several probation violations.
Hamilton County Assistant District Attorney Cameron Williams stated during arguments that Burress and Gustus were "dangerous offenders who have little to no regard for human life as they fired in a residential neighborhood as students were departing a school bus."
Prosecutor Williams also spoke of the high-speed pursuit of the defendants in mid-afternoon traffic and how they narrowly avoided hitting a school bus as police were chasing them.
As for the Class C felony of aggravated assault that ranges from three to six years in prison, the prosecutor said it was insufficient for the circumstances saying that the public needed to be safe from Burress and Gustus because they would continue to "endanger the citizens of Chattanooga."
Attorneys for Burress and Gustus said the case would be appealed stating that witnesses gave two different versions of events during the July trial adding that there was no evidence that Burress shot with and reloaded his gun while Gustus shot in the air and just wanted "to scare people."
The defense attorneys have 30 days to appeal the sentences.

'Tower Heist' Director Brett Ratner Issues Apology for Gay Slur
Tower Heist director Brett Ratner is known for his candid remarks on everything from his sexual experiences with Olivia Munn to his belief that some fans of the X-Men franchise considered him the "antichrist." But the filmmaker went too far according to many when he said, "Rehearsal is for fags," during a screening of his film on Friday.
On Monday, Ratner released a statement saying, "I apologize for any offense my remarks caused. It was a dumb and outdated way of expressing myself. Everyone who knows me knows that I don't have a prejudiced bone in my body. But as a storyteller I should have been much more thoughtful about the power of language and my choice of words."

Ratner was doing a Q&A session at the Arclight Hollywood after introducing the film to the audience. An audience member asked what rehearsals were like for the film, which stars Eddie Murphy, Ben Stiller and Casey Affleck.
It was then that Ratner responded, "Rehearsal? What's that? Rehearsal's for fags. Rehearsal. Not much. A lot of prep, preparation, complex action sequences, visual effects."
Q&A: Eddie Murphy Will 'Deliver' as Oscars Host, Say Show Producers
GLAAD quickly condemned the statement, and is now asking for more of a statement from Ratner.

"This apology is a good start, but we're working with Ratner's people for more action, to clearly send a message to Hollywood that the anti-gay slurs used by bullies and bigots have no place in the world of entertainment, or anywhere else," GLAAD wrote in a statement.
Ratner's next gig will be producing the 2012 Academy Awards, which will be hosted by Tower Heist star Eddie Murphy.

New Passat Pricing Released

Following being the subject of the most popular commercial during the Super Bowl, Volkswagen's new Passat is at the top of everyone's mind this week. Little detail is known about the cart thus far, but the commercial did give us one bit of insight; the price will start around $20,000.
Well today, Car and Driver's blog claims to know the actual number. The base-model Passat S will cost $20,590, and will be powered by the company's 2.5-liter 5-cylinder engine. Meanwhile, the top-of-the-line Passat SEL will be powered by the tried-and-true 3.6-liter VR6 engine, and will make 280 horsepower, while costing $32,950. Both these numbers are before destination charge, which isn't known yet, but you can figure it to be around $750, based on previous offerings.
No hard figures will come out until spring, but we'll be sure to update you once that happens.

Yellowstone wolf shootings draw scrutiny as Montana trapping season set to begin
BILLINGS, Mont. - The shooting of collared grey wolves from Yellowstone National Park is prompting Montana wildlife commissioners to consider new restrictions against killing the predators in areas near the park.
Wolf trapping in Montana kicks off Dec. 15. It's the state's first such trapping season since the animals lost their federal protections last year after almost four decades on the endangered species list.
But hunting already is under way for the predators in Montana and neighbouring Idaho and Wyoming, and at least seven of Yellowstone's roughly 88 wolves have been shot in recent weeks while travelling outside the park.
That includes five wolves fitted with tracking collars for scientific research, said Dan Stahler, a biologist with the park's wolf program. The most recent to be shot, the collared alpha female from the well-known Lamar Canyon pack, was killed last week in Wyoming.
Also shot in recent weeks were four collared wolves originally from the park but now living outside it. Three more shot in the vicinity of the park had unknown origins, park officials said.
Montana wildlife commissioner Shane Colton said closing some areas to trapping or setting strict quotas will be on the table during a Monday commission meeting.
"We don't want to close any area off if we don't have to. But if we keep losing collared wolves ... management becomes difficult," Colton said. "We want to do this first trapping season right."
Wildlife advocacy groups are pressing state officials to impose a protective buffer zone around the park to protect a species that serves as a major draw for the Yellowstone's 3 million visitors annually. Hunting and trapping are prohibited inside park boundaries, but wolves range freely across that line.
Marc Cooke with the group Wolves of the Rockies alleged hunters were targeting collared animals, either for bragging rights or out of spite for wolf restoration in the Northern Rockies. Shooting a collared wolf is not illegal if it's done within state hunting regulations.
Cooke said the Lamar Canyon wolf killed Thursday was well-known among wolf watchers. It was known as 832F to researchers and among tourists as '06 ("oh-six"), after the year of its birth.
"The proportion of collared wolves is too high to believe this is not being done deliberately," Cooke said. "It's wrong, and the world needs to know this."
Radio collars on wolves are used to track the animals' movement, often for research. They also are used outside the park to track down and kill the predators following livestock attacks.
Monday's meeting in Montana was set up months ago to give commissioners a chance to review the wolf harvest to date heading into a trapping season scheduled to run through Feb. 28. The intent was to see if too many were being killed or the killing was overly concentrated in a particular area, said Fish, Wildlife and Parks spokesman Ron Aasheim.
He said agency officials would make no recommendation on quotas or closures. Montana has low harvest limits for wolves in some areas near Yellowstone and Glacier National Parks. Those don't include all the areas where collared wolves have been shot. Cooke and others said they don't go far enough.
Yellowstone's chief scientist acknowledged the recent shootings have an impact on the park's wolf research. But Dave Hallac, chief of the park's Center for Resources, said that possibility was anticipated once wolves came off the endangered list.
The number killed so far does not threaten the park's overall population, he said.
Park officials will be observing Monday's commission meeting but have made no new requests of Montana officials, Hallac said. The park previously sought lower quotas or other measures to decrease wolf harvests near Yellowstone in 2009 and again last year, he said.
The Northern Rockies region had an estimated 1,774 wolves at the end of 2011, including at least 653 in Montana. Officials in all three states want to reduce pack numbers to address livestock attacks and elk numbers that have dropped in some areas.
Hunters have shot at least 87 wolves across Montana this fall. At least 120 have been killed by hunters and trappers in Idaho and 58 have been shot in Wyoming.
Montana Trappers Association President Tom Barnes said his group is wary of stricter wolf harvest limits, which he warned would hamper efforts to control the predators.
"The park is the park, and there are 2.2 million acres in the park," Barnes said. "If they start creating a buffer zone outside the park, are they going to create a larger buffer zone next time and a larger buffer after that?"
State wildlife commissioner Ron Moody said he would support closing areas to harvest or reducing wolf quotas if that's supported by the evidence. But the burden of proof is on wildlife advocates to show why the state should adopt such restrictions, he said.

State School
50 %
8 %
48 %
39 %
Professionally, the education industry, the manufacturing industry, and the health care industry are popular business areas among Northwest alumni. Among Northwest grads, the financial services industry is a commonly chosen career field. Unfortunately, former Northwest students — a population with excellent SAT results — report salaries on the lower end of the pay scale. Following graduation, Northwest students earn an average of approximately $49K.
Male graduates of Northwest out-earn their female counterparts significantly, earning an average of $56K versus $44K for women.
The biggest paychecks among Northwest alumni are earned by VPs of Commercial Lending — these former students make about $120K per year. The next biggest paychecks go to Senior Web Developers ($72K) and Operations Managers ($55K). On the lower end, Business Analysts report making around $43K.
Kansas City is filled with Northwest grads. The top-paying city popular with Northwest alumni is Denver, which offers median salaries of $70K. Northwest alumni in Omaha can often be found sliding in at the lower end of the pay scale, where median paychecks are the smallest at about $36K. Graduates also relocate to Des Moines and Maryville.
With annual earnings of $120K per year, former Bearcats who have a Bachelor of Science in Social Science are the best paid among the alumni population. Annual salaries for those with a Bachelor of Science in General Business are the lowest of the pack, earning around $33K.
Knowledge of Financial Analysis seems to be related to bigger paychecks; in fact, skilled alumni bring in salaries that are 137 percent more than their former classmates' salaries ($117K). Customer Service is a popular skill among Northwest alumni, with approximately one in eight workers reporting using it on the job. In addition, those who are savvy in Project Management, Microsoft Office, and People Management are also considered highly skilled.
A lucky minority (about two-fifths of alumni) are fortunate enough to be compensated for vacation while just one in three grads get sick time. Health coverage is awarded to a solid majority of alums, and dental insurance is issued to a majority of grads as well. A strong majority of former students save for retirement through a 401(k) plan. Northwest Missouri State University grads are also lucky enough to receive life insurance, a casual working environment, a company-subsidized cell phone, and tuition reimbursement.
Compensation averages approximately $50K for Fort Hays State University alumni, making their earnings most comparable to Northwest grads. The University of Central Missouri, Western Illinois University, and the University of Nebraska at Kearney are also similar to Northwest.

L J K Setright: Happy birthday to a remarkable, but long-forgotten Fiat
The little car's virtues were all in matters of engineering, not styling
Tuesday 16 March 2004
If a lifetime is 70 years, should we look for mid-life crisis at 35? Front-wheel drive has been with us (ignoring a tiny number of cars of historical interest but no commercial significance) for 70 years, thanks to the genius of Andre Citroën; what was critical half-a-lifetime later?
If a lifetime is 70 years, should we look for mid-life crisis at 35? Front-wheel drive has been with us (ignoring a tiny number of cars of historical interest but no commercial significance) for 70 years, thanks to the genius of Andre Citroën; what was critical half-a-lifetime later?
The motoring world was swithering in doubt. There seemed to be a lifetime of authority behind the traditional front-engined car driven by its rear wheels, but for the past decade the only successful racing cars had been rear-engined, like the VW Beetle, and like many other cheap, small cars flourishing in France and Italy.
The pre-war Citroën had earned respect, but was nevertheless judged odd, and few people outside France had experienced the marvellous rationality of its 1955 successor the DS. Only the tiny, quirky, nimble and affordable Mini of 1959 had ruffled motoring pundits.
The Mini was a marvel of packaging -- 20 per cent machinery, 80 per cent people-space -- but flawed by the BMC bosses' insistence that designer Issigonis use an old engine and do everything to make it cheap. One consequence was that he had to put the gearbox in the engine's sump, which was bad for the oil. Another was that, although the roadholding was good, its handling involved some surprises that many drivers found too sudden for their liking.
If Citroën had made front-drive practical, and Issigonis had made it affordable and fun, it remained for somebody else to make it good.
That somebody was Dante Giacosa, who had risen to be chief engineer at Fiat. Ever since his car-design debut creating the original Fiat 500, the Topolino of 1936, he had wanted to produce a small, front-drive car. In those days that was like preaching heresy, but after three decades he had more authority and his bosses had fewer objections.
Giacosa saw a need to replace Flat's classic 1100, and decided that it should have front-wheel drive. Under him were three brilliant engineers: Montabone was good at everything, Cordiano likewise, but particularly good at suspension, while Lampredi was the greatest engine-designer of his times. The result promised to be extraordinary.
It was. Fiat launched the 128 on 29 March 1969, and it scooped Car of the Year awards in seven countries. The remarkable thing was that the little car did not look remarkable: its virtues were matters of engineering not mere styling.
Lampredi had given it an entirely new engine: it was light, it had a belt-driven overhead camshaft, it was very strong and sweetly imperturbable. Cordiano gave it his new steered-strut, independent rear suspension, ensuring some infallible handling.
The rest of the detail was fascinating, too. The wheels were not simply held on by nuts, but located on a central spigot to guarantee the concentricity that the new generation of radial-ply tyres demanded. The springing kept the car on an even keel without the need for anti-roll bars. The gearbox, parallel to the engine, enjoyed its own oil. The drive-shafts were identical in torsional stiffness. And so on ...
Nearly all these features are commonplace in the front-drive cars that populate today's roads. The Japanese were the first to see the merits of the Fiat; next came VW and Ford with their Fiesta.
In the numerous new standards it set, the Fiat 128 was quite exceptional. Like so many noteworthy Fiats, it was also utterly commonplace. That is part of the paradox which has made Fiat from time to time one of the greatest names in the industry. When next you climb into your Vauxhall or VW, your Renault or Rover, remember where the principles originated, just half-a-lifetime ago.

Security craze aside, the economy is the only big file on which the Tories and Liberals are battling over the same turf. And it's prime real estate
Our choice is not between bombing or nothing.
Mulcair said tax loopholes primarily benefit wealthy Canadians, including corporate CEOs who use them to reduce the tax paid when they cash in their stock options
This was a deliberate bid to refocus attention on the economy, where the New Democrats believe the Conservative government is increasingly vulnerable
It is long past time the debates were taken away from the networks and the parties, and entrusted to an independent body — Elections Canada springs to mind — their broad parameters set out in law
No doubt fighting the good fight is reward enough for Mr. Mulcair and Mr. Trudeau. But the risk they're running may not be as acute as it seems.
While the Conservatives have undoubtedly been making it a 'wedge issue' as fast as they can, the same is true for all of the parties. They just each do it in their own way
The Prime Minister is politicizing an issue of fundamental importance to Canadian democracy and Justin Trudeau's approach is similarly cavalier
But Stephen Harper said the NDP had entered the realm of conspiracy theory. 'That's what we've come to expect from the black helicopter fleet over there'
Current projections have them at around 21% support in the province — a level that could give them 15 or more seats at the election in October

Kyrie Irving is the future of the NBA, but he is injury-prone. Irving suffered another injury last night and had to leave the Cleveland Cavaliers' game against the Toronto Raptors in the third quarter. Cleveland went on to lose the game 100-96.
According to Associated Press reports, Irving suffered a bruised shoulder in the third quarter and had to leave. He was evaluated in the locker room and X-rays came back negative. However, Irving will be evaluated further back in Cleveland.
Irving has notably suffered a fractured jaw and fracture finger earlier in the season. There's not much the team or Irving can do to avoid injuries in the future. They happen. If Irving were doing something to put himself in harm's way, they may be able to correct the issue, but that doesn't seem to be the problem.
Irving is an exciting young player that gives the Cavaliers' fans something to watch every night. He is averaging 23.0 points and 5.7 assists per game. Last season, Irving averaged 18.5 points and 5.4 assists per game.

The owners were absolutely fabulous! They made us feel very welcome, they made us feel like family, and even invited us to a private campfire. There was a minor issue with the hot water tank, and just because of that, they decided to give us one night free for TWO rooms. We will definitely visit again, and customer service is what will take us back. Absolutely wonderful! Thank you!

I'm approaching 5 months now and thinking of doing a soak. What's the best way to do it without making the overall indigo shade of the jeans lighter? I'd like to have just the fades without losing the dark indigo color. Right now they only have creases, no apparently fading yet.
I also want to wash/soak my jeans for the first time. I've been wearing my PNS for 9 months and the fabric is starting to feel a little dirty to me. I've heard soaking with Woolite Black is the way to keep the dark color, but I think I'm just going to use regular laundry detergent. I also don't have a bathtub (only shower) so I'm going to just fold the jeans up and soak them in a bucket. I know my conditions aren't ideal but I'm also not a huge OCD type with my clothes.

just fill up your washer with cold water, put a litttttttle bit of detergent and soak the jeans in the washer for a couple minutes (dont start the machine, just do it manually), remove and hang at vertical. That's how I would do it.

Get a gym membership and start working out.
So I've been owning these New Standards for about 2.5 months (not my everyday pants, probably 15-20 wears total). I sized down 3 and they felt OK, until I gained some weight recently so basically they're 4 size down now and it's starting to feel uncomfortable especially when I'm sitting down (the fit is still fine). Should I throw the towel? I heard a guy who sized down 5 in NS and survived though
It was with the old sizing, I doubt you can do that today.
I don't get how people can size down more than one and still have their nuts hanging outside of their body.

Got a lot of tap water spilt on the bum area of my new cures, when they dried as i was wearing them it considerably stretched out the area.
I've only had them a week so they haven't started to fade, was just wondering if I did a hot soak to shrink the area back down, would it stop them from fading properly in future?
Thanks a lot

Long shot, but would anyone happen to have some hemmed parts of APCs they'd be willing to part with? I put off darning my APC PNS when they started to show signs of weakness about a month ago and now there's a straight up 2" by 2" hole that requires patching. A 3" by 3" piece or larger would be idea.
I will, of course, pay for shipping and your troubles.

Yes, it's a good idea even though there are no signs of a problem. Left un-repaired, more damage can occur from continued driving, especially to the catalytic converter $$.

- Call for co-presenters for conference on women's safety
Posted by: "karmayog - tanya" info@...
Wed Jul 7, 2010 4:21 am (PDT)
Call for Co-presenters for a panel on governance and the provision of gender-sensitive essential services in low-income communities for the Third International Conference on Women's Safety, November 22-24, 2010, New Delhi, India
Jagori is looking for 2 co-presenters for a panel on gender and essential services in low-income communities. This panel will be held at the Third International Conference on Women's Safety: Building Inclusive Cities, November 22 - 24th 2010, New Delhi, India. You can find additional information about the conference at the following URL:
https://www. qvc.qc.ca/ womens-safety/ Welcome.htm <https://www. qvc.qc.ca/ womens-safety/ Welcome.htm>
Jagori, a women's group in New Delhi, India, is proposing to host a panel discussion on the gendered impacts of inadequate services and how to improve governance for services provision in low-income neighbourhoods. We are interested in hearing from either women's groups, CBOs, local governments, NGOs or a combination of the above about your experiences in organizing for the provision of gender-sensitive services for water, sanitation, drainage, solid waste, and electricity. Clearly, security of tenure and shelter are implicated in the provision of essential services; we look forward to hearing about your particular context in this regard.
We are especially interested in exploring changes in governance for the provision of services; women and community-based services provision; or, partnerships with service providers for the provision of gender-sensitive services as they implicate women's daily lives and their safety and security in their immediate living environments.
We are looking for 2 other presenters to join us on this panel. The panel session is for 1.5 hours. If you have been, or are involved in an initiative that would qualify for this panel based on the information above, please send us a 2-page brief description of your initiative. We are presently fundraising to cover transportation and hotel costs for the participation of the 2 presenters. We are optimistic about raising funds.
Your proposal should identify what service/s you are working on; what is your approach to gender-inclusive services provision; how is women's safety and security implicated in the service/s; who are the key actors in the initiative/project; what you are proposing to do; what has been done so far; and the changes in governance for the delivery of gender-inclusive services.
Please send your proposal including your organizational contact information by July 30th 2010 to:
Surabhi Tandon Mehrotra surabhi@jagori. org <mailto:surabhi@jagori. org> and Prabha Khosla prabhakhosla@ hotmail.com <mailto:prabhakhosla@ hotmail.com>
Or, you can mail or fax your proposal to the address below.

some things to keep in mind is that dex actually provides much much greater dmg reduction in the mid range than any other primary state vs normal attacks. additionally it is much easier for a dex class to add armor and all res than it is for non dex to add dodge.. for example a dh can add a shield and get a reliable 30% boost to armor from one slot (not even using up an afix), where as for example wizard can only gain 1-3% dodge for each affix that they dedicate to adding dex for its dodge.
also consider that dots already have several inherent weakens compared to non dots in that they do their dmg spread out over a long period of time, which allows for a player hit by a dot to continue doing dmg themselves instead of being instantly dead, or allowing them time to activate a defensive cooldown. and that they, for the most part, cannot be spammed as they do not stack
If dodge wasnt inherently such a overpowered stats to begin with in pvp you would not be seeing this requirement to use dots as the only means to fight a dex class.

Nothing conveys the creative impulse more honestly than illustration. And our aim at VILE is to shatter the constraints of ordinary to create truly unique and imaginative visual solutions for web, print, products and what-the-heck-ever.
We are thrilled to announce the release of VILE's first picture book entitled Quack!
A splendid tale written in rhyming verse about a little girl who is constantly shadowed by a cloud of uncertainty.
We only send out emails when we can't contain our excitement.
VILE Inc. is a multidisciplinary studio with a singular purpose: Turning our client's vision into stunning visuals and unique products.
Hand-drawn on paper or rendered in pixels. Every piece we create is original and conveys our passion for the illustrative arts.
Stock illustration not cutting it? Support the arts by supporting individuals. Work direct and make a hard-working illustrator very happy.
First and foremost, VILE is an illustration studio. Our goal is to build a company that spans disciplines to showcase the illustrative arts and new talent amidst the cacophony of noise polluting our experiences.
Illustration is a live medium. It moves and breathes at the whims of imagination. It is infinitely original and has the power to convey a thousand words within a single image. Cultivating creativity for mass absorption.
We love the name and the word play. We love the possibilities inherent in this concept. We also love the breadth of styles VILE can and will encompass. Are we evil? Hardly. But our ideas will not always be angelic.
Ultimately, the goal of VILE is to produce our own products, our own content, and create a brand that speaks to the creative spirit in much the same way that a crazy person speaks to himself in a padded room. Behind the veil
Add a whole new level of awesome to your products with our custom artwork. We'll collaborate with you to create original designs for skis, snowboards, surfboards, skate decks, and even coffee mugs.
Finished illustration for a new local restaurant called Better Half. The restaurant is the brain-child of the fabulous husband and wife duo behind PushStart Kitchen.
The 5"x7" piece is rendered with pen and ink and each of the 24 objects measure approximately 1".
VILE was approached by the FUNBags Charity Cornhole Tournament to submit custom art for a set of boards to support a local breast cancer charity.
We signed on immediately.
