Gateway to Hells Canyon – Your adventure is waiting!
Welcome to the beautiful Lewis-Clark Valley – the site of Lewiston, Idaho and Clarkston, Washington. The history of the Lewis-Clark Valley is rich with traditions and stories. For centuries the area has been home to the Nez Perce Indians, who traveled through the valley and lived off the land and rivers. In 1805, the Corps of Discovery explorers, Meriwether Lewis and William Clark, were welcomed by the native people. That historical meeting led to the naming of our sister cities in honor of the explorers… Lewiston, Idaho and Clarkston, Washington.
When the Idaho Territory was established in 1863, Lewiston, Idaho's oldest city, became the capital. Over time the Idaho state seat of government was moved to Boise, however the Lewis-Clark Valley grew and prospered as the home to miners, merchants, railroaders, millworkers and farmers. Located 465 miles from the Pacific Ocean at the confluence of the Snake and Clearwater Rivers, water transportation played a vital role in the growth of the area.
Today, the cities of Lewiston, Clarkston and Asotin are referred to as the gateway to Hells Canyon, North America's deepest river gorge. Recreational opportunities for jet boating, white-water rafting, swimming, fishing, hunting, hiking and camping are limitless. Miles of levee pathways follow the rivers for walking, jogging and biking. The area is often referred to as the "Banana Belt" of the Pacific Northwest due to the mild winter climate that allows for year-round golfing, while being only a short drive away from snow skiing and snowmobiling. The Lewis-Clark Valley is a recreational paradise teeming with history and natural beauty.

CARSON, Calif. -- Samuel scored as the LA Galaxy picked up a 1-0 victory over Club Tijuana on Wednesday night.
The Brazilian forward put the Galaxy ahead in the 11th minute with a finish off a knock down by Robbie Keane. Tijuana's offense was under wraps for much of the game, but LA goalkeeper Jaime Penedo made two saves in the win.
The two teams will face off again next Tuesday at Estadio Caliente.
More to come soon...
CARSON, Calif. -- The LA Galaxy take on Club Tijuana in the CONCACAF Champions League quarterfinal first leg on Wednesday at StubHub Center.
Check out my look ahead to the match below.
*In the Galaxy's last pair of two-leg series, LA have struggled, but they're hoping to learn from the lessons of Monterrey and Real Salt Lake when they play Tijuana.
*The Galaxy expect Tijuana to come out aggressive early on and believe that their counter is key to victory.
*Robbie Keane admits that Tijuana's inability showcases a "weakness" that the Galaxy will be looking to exploit on Wednesday.
*LAGalaxy.com's Larry Morgan provides his preview of the match.
*Lastly, check out my video round-up of all of the LAvTJ video content produced by LAGalaxy.com.
Juninho vs. Cristian Pellerano
A battle of attacking defensive midfielders, the two players will be looking to set the tempo for their respective teams early on.
Gyasi Zardes vs. Edgar Castillo
Speed vs. Speed. The hyperactive left back will look to push forward into the attack for Tijuana, but look for Zardes to attempt to take advantage of the space left by his agression to help the Galaxy.
Herculez Gomez vs. Omar Gonzalez
Whether Gomez will starts remains to be seen, but if he does, the Galaxy center back will have his hands full with the dangerous attacker. Expect the battle on the field to be as heated as their war of words.
PREDICTED LINEUP: Penedo; DeLaGarza, Gonzalez, Leonardo, Riley; Zardes, Juninho, Sarvas, Donovan; Keane, Samuel
Banter between MLS teams usually produces hilarious results, but this offering from an exchange between the LA Galaxy Twitter account and Sporting Kansas City's twitter may take the cake.

CARSON, Calif. -- Club Tijuana's struggles away from Estadio Caliente are well documented, but whether the LA Galaxy will be able to exploit this weakness at StubHub Center remains to be seen.
Heading into their CONCACAF Champions League quarterfinal series, Tijuana has gone winless in 19 consecutive league matches, but over that span, the team has won a total of three times away from home during CCL and Copa Libertadores play.
"It's something that we can't think about too much. There's obviously a weakness there somewhere on the road. We have to make sure that we don't give them the opportunity to do so on the road," said LA captain Robbie Keane. "When you haven't won in that long on the road there are some chinks in your armor that we can get at. That's what we're going to try and do."
Think Tijuana will drop another result away from home?
Share your thoughts below.
In the final installment of our LA Galaxy vs. Club Tijuana video series, I take a look at the three most interesting pieces of content that were produced on LAGalaxy.com in the lead up to Wednesday's match.
Check it out below.
CARSON, Calif. -- LA Galaxy head coach Bruce Arena and forward Landon Donovan spoke to reporters in a press conference at StubHub Center on Tuesday ahead of their CONCACAF Champions League quarterfinal against Club Tijuana.
Check it out below.
CARSON, Calif. – The LA Galaxy came into the 2014 campaign eager to learn from the failures of a year ago, and they'll get their first opportunity to right the wrongs of 2013 when they kick off their CONCACAF Champions League quarterfinal series against Club Tijuana on Wednesday.
The two biggest letdowns of 2013 saw the LA Galaxy falter in two-leg series falling to C.F. Monterrey in the CCL Semifinals and Real Salt Lake in the Western Conference Semifinals. Despite being played months apart, both series featured similar problems for the Galaxy as the team was unable to convert a number of scoring opportunities in the home leg before crashing out away from StubHub Center.
To correct these issues, the Galaxy invested heavily in experienced players during the offseason in hopes of turning the club's fortunes around. A strategy that the team is hoping will pay off come Wednesday evening against Club Tijuana.
"We have to learn our lessons from previous games," said defender Todd Dunivant, who is expecting to be available for Wednesday's match after dealing with a nagging injury. "When you talk about previous games, you look at the Monterrey home leg, where we were dominating that game for 80 minutes and feeling confident that we could get another goal or another two goals but we lost our shape and when you do that against good teams it's going to hurt you. We have to be smart.
"This year, this team has brought in more experienced players with guys like Rob Friend, Stefan Ishizaki that have been in big games and won championships in other countries," Dunivant added. "There's definitely a different mood around our clubhouse."
And the first lesson that the Galaxy must learn? Finish their chances at home.
"In both of those games, we played very well, but we didn't finish our chances and it gets magnified in these series," said Landon Donovan. "In a series like this, every goal is important. In both of those games, we played well at home, but we couldn't finish our chances. We just have to be better in front of goal. It's as simple as that."
In the latest edition of LAGalaxy.com's "By the Numbers," we look at the LA Galaxy's CONCACAF Champions League Quarterfinals first leg against Club Tijuana.

Results vs. VMI (2007-10-27 09:00:00)
October 27, 2007
|Falcons Defeat VMI
|Sunday, 28 October 2007
|Pfeiffer Swimming traveled to NCAA division 1 Virginia Military Institute (VMI) to race both the VMI men and Randolph College women swimmers on Saturday afternoon. In a close meet the Falcons defeated VMI 114-108.
In a closely fought Men's meet, the Falcons managed to secure the win with several first place swims (each worth 9 points) and a relay win (worth 14 points) in the 200 medley relay. Event winners were Edwin Torres (1000 free, 500 free), David Angell (100 back, 200 IM), Vincent Gallegos (200 free) and Kevin Parks (100 breaststroke), and Kevin Parks, TJ Havens, Andrew Siegfried and Vincent Gallegos in the 200 medley relay. Best times were swum by Brian San Agustin and Mac Hance, and in winning the 1,000 free, Edwin Torres added his name to the school record list by eclipsing the mark set by Falcon sprinter Vincent Gallegos just last week.
Coach Hawkins commented, "While our times in general were not our best it didn't come as a surprise, following back to back meets last weekend and some quality work in the Merner training pool, especially yesterday afternoon. We've been putting in extra work on our walls which is one of our weak points and it was great to see quite a few swimmers improve in that area today. I think the best times we did see are an added bonus, and I am very excited about what this group will accomplish once we get to the point in the season where they will get some rest before racing. Days like today are all about racing for the team first, and the guys and girls are finally learning what they can accomplish when they pull together and support each other. Just having that roster size and strength alone is still not enough to win meets, you have to be able to get out there and compete on the day and we did that. We took some risks to get people a chance to swim some different things and fortunately it paid off. We'll be back at home next weekend to race tough conference competition Limestone College on Friday at 6pm and then the new teams from St. Andrews on Saturday Nov 3rd."

October 28, 2013
A Fayetteville resident recently received a utility bill in the mail for a shocking $91,644. While this was merely a computer error and not the correct amount due, it was a brusque reminder of our ever-increasing energy costs due to government overreach. I regularly hear concerns from constituents about the steady increase in electricity and gas prices. From skyrocketing prices at the pump to soaring utility bills at home, North Carolinians are hurting because the government continues to stand in the way of domestic energy exploration and production.
This administration and regulatory bodies like the Environmental Protection Agency have continuously prevented the advancement and improvement of American energy and infrastructure, driving energy supplies down and prices up. Their hostile attitude towards American energy is hindering domestic energy exploration, destroying our coal industry, and forcing more Americans into the unemployment line.
Coal is one of America's most abundant and affordable sources of energy. It remains a critical natural resource and our largest power source, providing nearly 40 percent of our electric generation. The coal industry is a vital piece of our economy and supports and enables nearly 3.4 million jobs across the nation.
In September, the EPA released its first major regulation for power plants since President Obama announced his comprehensive climate action plan in June. The EPA's new extreme regulation plasters more red tape and unneeded restrictions on our energy producers, pocketing more of American families' hard-earned money and stifling economic growth. The federal regulation is aimed at limiting pollution limits even further by setting greenhouse gas standards for new electricity plants.
The rule sets sweeping, unachievable emission limits that will fundamentally halt and ban all new coal-fired electricity plants. The new standards would require expensive carbon capture and storage technology that currently is neither commercially demonstrated nor practical. But the buck doesn't stop there. In addition to these restrictions on new coal-fired electricity plants, the President's climate plan will unleash more bureaucratic hurdles for existing plants next summer and move him closer toward the promise he made in 2008 of bankrupting coal-fired power plants.
This hostile war on coal is irresponsible and unwarranted. It weakens our coal industry and kills jobs in our manufacturing and transportation industries while severely threatening our economy. While I recognize the need for clean and affordable energy, I understand that we must not force extreme proposals like these that harm American families and businesses and drive up our energy bills. We cannot rely solely on renewable energy to power our nation. We need to secure our energy future through domestic energy supplies like coal and natural gas to reduce costs and remain competitive in the global marketplace. We must not let big government and regulatory bodies set our nation's energy agenda through environmental policies. This is why I voted in support of H.R. 1582, the Energy Consumers Relief Act. This legislation will ensure more transparency and accountability from the EPA and prevent costly, job-killing regulations that threaten American businesses and families.
North Carolina is on the cusp of unleashing our own natural resources and boosting our economy at home through fracking and offshore drilling. By tapping into our own energy resources, we will bring thousands of jobs to our state and transform our economy. Using our domestic resources in a responsible way and keeping our energy costs low will allow our manufacturers and businesses to grow and bring jobs back home. It will boost our economy, revitalize our factories, and create new jobs and opportunities across the nation. I will continue to support policies that will open up our lands for exploration and development, increase production of domestic oil and natural gas, and prevent big government bureaucrats from regulating every part of our lives.

Union County residents without adequate medical insurance may benefit from a program to be offered through the county government.
The county has contracted to provide a prescription discount card for residents who either do not have medical insurance or are underinsured.
County Administrator Terry Johnson said anyone may get a card, but the main focus of the program is toward those without adequate insurance.
The contract with the National Association of Counties will provide an approximate 22 percent savings on prescription drugs for those without insurance. It also may help people whose drug is not covered by their insurance plan.
The cards are expected to be available in about 10 weeks. Participating pharmacies include Walmart, Walgreens, Super Saver Drugs, Rite Aid Pharmacies, Fred's Discount Pharmacy and the Hospital Pharmacy.
"A cardholder will simply present it at a participating pharmacy," Johnson said. "There is no enrollment form, no membership fee and no restrictions or limits on frequency of use. Cardholders and their family members may use the card any time their prescriptions are not covered by insurance."
The county will announce when and where the cards will be available.
We think it is worthwhile for the county to participate in this program which may provide some relief on prescription drug costs for those Union County residents without medical insurance.

Hot weather : Kouros , Capucci PH.
Cold weather : Fahrenheit , Opium PH , Rochas Man .
1. Fille en Aiguilles
Hands down my favourite this year. It is my go-to winter/cold weather fragrance, and living in a country with such a short summer, it's no wonder it gets worn a lot.
2. Blu Mediterraneo Capri Orange
A distant second on my list. When it's warm or I want to feel summery, it's a juicy and cheerful fragrance.
3. Azemour les Orangers
Bitter, refreshing, a cool splash on the face kind of a scent.
4. Tilda Swinton Like This
Complex and comforting, a spicy wood-pudding fragrance.
Hot weather : Kouros , Capucci PH.
Cold weather : Fahrenheit , Opium PH , Rochas Man .
In answering your specific question of 'most worn fragrances in 2012', mine are herewith and I have based this not only from memory, but also by looking at the actual quantities of juice still left in the bottle!

A year of truly exceptional olfactory pleasure, but if I had to choose just a few that I wore more often...

Looking forward to a New Year with hope and a continued passion to enjoy olfactory art.

David Wilhelm left the Orange County restaurant scene at the peak of a recession that wasn't kind to his special-occasion establishments. But after "kicking the tires" on a new gastropub concept in San Diego, Wilhelm said he's ready for a comeback.
The founder of the defunct French 75 and Chat Noir restaurants is switching gears, bringing a casual tavern concept to Dana Point this summer. Jimmy's Famous American Tavern specializes in gourmet pub grub — half-pound burgers, fish and chips, mammoth onion rings and fried chicken.
Jimmy's is the type of place that makes its own ketchup.
"It's comfort food for foodies," Wilhelm said during a phone interview. "There's no envelope being pushed with the menu. It's a celebration of American food."
Jimmy's represents an about-face for Wilhelm, known for his tonier French concepts.
Enjoying success with Jimmy's Point Loma location, Wilhelm said it was a natural next step to bring the brand to Orange County, where he still lives.
"It doesn't feel like I have really left. I took a little bit of a break, after the culinary meltdown," Wilhelm said.
In 2008, Wilhelm's Newport Beach-based Culinary Adventures filed for bankruptcy protection. Most of the concepts under Culinary's umbrella have closed or rebranded under new owners. During his break, Wilhelm said he was researching ideas for a new restaurant company. His eye quickly turned to the premium casual sector, which was thriving amid a bad economy.
"That's what people are looking for these days."
Particularly, gastropubs with crave-worthy burgers caught his eye.
"Frankly, I was burnt out on the whole French 75 high-end check average approach," he said. "This (Jimmy's) felt like this was going to be fun, and people would really enjoy it."
Joining forces with a San Diego developer, Wilhelm opened Jimmy's Famous American Tavern at the Point Loma Marina in 2010. The 150-seat restaurant targeted millennials who would appreciate upscale American-style food served in a bar-centric atmosphere. Today, the tavern's regulars range in age from mid-20s to 70s, Wilhelm said.
"It's the right concept for the right time," he said.
The new restaurant is taking over the space where Ristorante Ferrantelli operated at Dana Point Harbor. Like the San Diego tavern, Jimmy's will incorporate eco-friendly characteristics such as polished concrete floors, communal tables made of natural material, leather booths, and roll-up garage doors. (Note: Jimmy's San Diego venue is one of about 30 restaurant brands in California certified with the Green Restaurant Association. Certified restaurants follow practices such as using recyclable materials and energy efficient appliances.)
The Dana Point menu will incorporate signature meals found in San Diego but with an expanded selection of dinner plates, including more seafood and steak options. Wilhelm said he hopes to open by June.

- Got A Question?
There are several compelling events necessitating change in mobile detailing and the state of
Let's start with the obvious.
On top of an environment encouraging and necessitating the use of less water is the other reality that the Clean Water Act of 1972 has evolved into the State Water Control Boards (SWCB) of
These permits regulate discharge into storm drains to protect water resources and all regions are scheduled to issue new permits in 2009. After the permit is issued, the counties and cities in that region have one year to write a Best Management Practices (BMP) to comply with the standards set.
Currently, the permit requires the user to ensure waste water does not leave the private property or steps are taken to prevent direct discharge into the storm drain. However, the SWCB has been testing water sources (streams, lakes, etc.) and finding the Total Daily Maximum Load (TDML) has exceeded their limits. If the TDML exceeds the limits set forth in the permit, it issues fines of $10,000 per day, per occurrence.
If the standard is set at controlling the contamination, then the capture of waste water is satisfied. The SWCB will utilize best available technology to achieve these standards.
Water $mart defined
The opportunity to be an eco-friendly detailer lies at the intersection of what we've come to call "Water $mart" principles. Fundamentally, the idea is if you use less water, then you will have to capture less of it.
Water $mart is general term used to indicate that a professional detailer is making wise choices when it comes to conserving water and controlling discharge.
Much like being Water $mart, eco detailing means making business choices in consideration of the environment. All products are the best options of efficacy and environmental friendliness. In all aspects of being a professional detailer, green and environmentally friendly decisions are the priority.
The methods of how you wash a car, the products you use, and your method of capturing and discharging water are all with consideration of the environment.
Here's the best example: For an engine detail, a mobile detailer typically sprays degreaser, brushes a little, hoses down and applies dressing. It's a great hourly rate and up-sell opportunity, but very bad for the environment.
Other changes
The SWCB standards being renewed in 2009 is not the only concern for mobile detailers. In an example of things to come, the city of
The city had seen drafts of the upcoming NPDES Permit and knew they could face a $10,000 fine if mobile detailing services affected the TDMLs in their waterways.
The city decided to regulate the industry preemptively. Under the new ordinance, mobile carwash owners must obtain a permit and prove they properly discharge runoff water.
It is assumed that other
The message to detailers:
The "waterless" alternative
There are many new waterless/eco-friendly carwash products hitting the market. Most of these solutions claim to clean a vehicle with only one pint of water; meaning five gallons of the solution, plus a bit of water, and you can clean 20-25 vehicles a day. You could put the solution in an inflatable bladder and hide it in -- or even under -- your vehicle.
By reducing the amount of water you carry, you open up many new options in vehicles. These new solutions also reduce the amount of equipment. Gone are the 100-galon waste water tank, the pressure washer, the reclamation equipment, etc. The mobile detailer no longer needs to drive a large van or trailer. Since you are carrying significantly less weight, you have better gas mileage, fewer brake and transmission repairs and problems.
Based on the services you intend to perform, you might be able to eliminate the generator and utilize a marine battery for energy to deliver the initial expense benefit and then ongoing gas costs.
Other "ecovations"
Innovations for eco-friendly detailers don't end with these green cleaning solutions. The Total Pros in
Another "ecovation" comes from Attention to Detail, a detail business run by Renny Doyle in
Steam has not only proven to be an effective cleaner; it is safer and easier on interior finishes than the common methods used by most detailers and does so without exposing the detailing customer to the smell and possible negative exposure that chemicals can offer.
Marketing & PR
This is the perfect time to establish yourself as the local eco detail expert. The future will bring opportunities to get your business recognized in free PR efforts as the media is always looking for a local green story.
Team up with other green companies and host charity carwashes for community groups. Contact your city government for opportunities to help them "green" up their government fleets.

I am not really a master of winter wear -as you have probably realized in the past few years-, in my defense, I was born and raised in Mexico, where we don't have this type of snow-blast problems. Living in Europe has taught me that its all about layering and I am trying, I really am, so underneath it all, there are probably 2 or 3 layers of thermal clothing which help. They don't solve the problem, but every little helps.

SEATTLE, Dec. 13, 2007 -- The results of a small, nationwide study published in this week's issue of the Journal of the National Cancer Institute support the widely accepted, if not so widely adopted, recommendation that diagnostic mammograms -- which are done when cancer is suspected and when any tumors would presumably be larger and easier to spot -- are best read by doctors who specialize in detecting breast cancer.
The findings add weight to concerns about relying on a mammogram, which experts have long said was an imprecise tool for detecting breast cancer. And the research shows that women shouldn't automatically accept a mammogram result -- negative or positive -- as the final word.

The German Sturmgeschutz was one of the most successful armored fighting vehicles of the Second World War. It arose from an original concept of the pre-war panzer divisions, whereby a special vehicle for infantry support work was planned. During the war years, the Sturmgeschutz was rapidly developed and upgunned, and was used both in its original role as an assault gun and also as a tank destroyer.
This series showcases seven armored vehicles from the StuG III and StuG IV families and is completely new from the ground up. Each piece has been painstakingly created using high-tech CAD programs and the latest in design techniques. Pictured here is a StuG III Ausf.B, from Abt.226, then participating in Operation Barbarossa during 1941. Sold Out!
Length: 1-1/2 inches
Width: 1 inch
Release Date: January 2007
Historical Account: "Sturmgeschutz Vor" - The Sturmgeschutz (assault gun) units of the Wehrmacht were, contrary to popular opinion, manned by men of, and controlled by, the artillery branch, not the panzerwaffe. This is not to say that StuGs weren't used by the panzerwaffe, as they were in Panzer-Sturmgeschutz units, usually assigned to the panzergrenadier divisions, falling under the control of the artillery. This had a number of effects on their structure and employment.
Initially StuG batteries had only six vehicles, roughly comparable in manpower to an artillery battery. By comparison, panzer companies had up to 22 tanks. At war's end the battery size had increased to 14 StuGs and the panzer company had decreased to around the same number, depending on the unit.
Much like an artillery battalion, a Sturmgeschutz Abteilung (assault gun battalion) had 3 batteries. Late in the war, a fourth (Begleit or escort) battery of infantry was added to some units. This was intended to consist of a company-sized element of panzergrenadiers on halftracks, but shortages prevented the halftracks from being assigned and many units were lucky to get trucks. Some units had to ride on the StuGs themselves.
There seems to be a rough correlation between the redesignation of some Sturmgeschutz units as Sturmartillerie (assault artillery) and the addition of a Begleit Batterie. Parallel to this was the redesignation of most all the Abteilungen to brigades in early 1944. This reflected the expansion of the Batterie to 10, and later 14 vehicles. Including headquarters vehicles, a late-war brigade would consist of 31 or 45 StuGs.

Comments about Avid BB5 MTB Disc Brake:
These brakes were on my first full suspension mountain bike, and I was pretty happy with them. They stopped me well and were pretty durable. They're aren't as adjustable as BB7s, and ultimately I decided to go for hydraulics instead. But for the budget minded they're not a bad brake at all.
Best Uses
Comments about Avid BB5 MTB Disc Brake:
I use these for mtn biking and they work great.
Fairly easy to adjust and inexpensive. They are not the lightest or the highest performance. However, they will definitely stop your bike. They are cheaper to purchase upfront and if you are not adept at maintenance they will be cheaper in the long run vs. hydros.
Best Uses
Comments about Avid BB5 MTB Disc Brake:
I have had these and BB7's. The BB7's are easier to adjust (pad adjustment from both sides) and have greater stopping power. That said, these are an upgrade from most rim brakes, they just take a bit more patience to adjust. For the extra $10-20, I would go with BB7's. That said, the price makes them attractive for a budget bike such as a commuter.
Best Uses
Comments about Avid BB5 MTB Disc Brake:
These are on my Specialized FSR/XC. They stop the bike fine and are easy to maintain. I have BB7s on my Trek Hardtail, and for few dollars more, the BB7's are easier to adjust and seem to have a longer pad life. But the BB5s aren't bad brakes. I'm not recommending only because the BB7s are better for only a few dollars more.
Best Uses
Comments about Avid BB5 MTB Disc Brake:
Came on my bike and performed poorly. Even with constant adjustment they were poor. They did stop the bike but not well.
Comments about Avid BB5 MTB Disc Brake:
If you just want disk brakes, this is as cheap as you want to get. They're good enough. Easy to work with and adjust however. The rotor came with them was just slightly tweaked, and no amount of playing with it seems to get it true, but close enough. The bike they're on isn't anything special, so why should the brakes be?
I'd say its worth spending the extra money on the BB7's for a bike to take on the trails. For farting around greenways/cities/etc, these would be perfect.

IRVING - Dallas Cowboys nose tackle Josh Brent was was released from jail around 4:15 pm Sunday on a $500,000 bond.
Brent was arrested and charged with intoxication manslaughter on Saturday. A probable cause affidavit said Brent was responsibile for a single-vehicle rollover crash that killed Jerry Brown Jr., a linebacker on the Cowboys' practice squad.
A source told News 8 Brent, 24, and Brown, 25, were partying late Friday night and into the morning at a Dallas club before the fatal crash in Irving.
Brent was in a 2007 Mercedes with Brown at about 2:20 a.m. Saturday near Highway 114 when the vehicle hit an outside curb while traveling at a high rate of speed. The vehicle flipped over onto its top, landing in the center of the road, according to Irving police.
I can say investigators are certain they were traveling well above the posted speed limit, said John Argumaniz, a police spokesman.
The speed limit was 45 mph.
Upon arriving on the scene, officers saw Brent dragging Brown from the car, which had caught fire in the wreck, Argumaniz said. Officers extinguished the fire and talked with Brent, who they determined was the driver of the vehicle.
Brown was found unresponsive at the scene and transferred to a nearby hospital where he was pronounced dead.
I am devastated and filled with grief, Brent said in a statement. Filled with grief for the loss of my close friend and teammate Jerry Brown. I am also grief-stricken for his family, friends and all who were blessed to have known him. I will live with this horrific and tragic loss every day for the rest of my life. My prayers are with his family, our team.
Police said the nose tackle was arrested based on officers' observations and after failing a field sobriety test. He was later charged with intoxication manslaughter after Brown was pronounced dead. Intoxication manslaughter is a second degree felony with a range in punishment from two to 20 years in prison and a fine not to exceed $10,000.
Brent was taken to a nearby hospital for mandatory blood withdrawal and suffered minor scrapes, Argumaniz said.
The Cowboys were told of Brown's death around 1:15 p.m. Saturday while on a grounded plane set to head to Cincinnati for the Sunday game. The media and non-essential personnel were asked to exit the plane for the private meeting. The team said in a statement that Brent was not on the team flight to Cincinnati, where the Cowboys play the Bengals.
We are deeply saddened by the news of this accident and the passing of Jerry Brown, said Cowboys owner Jerry Jones in a statement. At this time, our hearts and prayers and the deepest sympathies are with the members of Jerry's family and all of those who knew him and loved him.
Cowboys officials said there will be no further comment on the incident until after the game Sunday.
Brent was selected in the 2010 NFL Supplemental Draft after leaving the University of Illinois as a junior. Players enter the NFL Supplemental Draft because they missed the filing deadline for the NFL Draft or issues developed that affected their eligibility, such as academic or disciplinary matters.
Brent was arrested in February 2009 near the Illinois campus for driving under the influence, driving on a suspended license and speeding, according to Champaign County, Ill., court records.
In June 2009, Brent pleaded guilty to DUI and was sentenced to 60 days in jail, two years of probation, 200 hours of community service and a fine of about $2,000. As part of his plea deal, prosecutors dropped one count of aggravated DUI/no valid driver's license. Brent successfully completed his probation in July 2011, court records show.
The accident happened a week after another NFL tragedy. Chiefs linebacker Jovan Belcher killed his girlfriend and then committed suicide December 1.
Brent and Brown were college teammates at the University of Illinois and played as teammates for three seasons
Brent has played in all 12 games this season and has been a bigger presence on defense with starting nose guard Jay Ratliff battling injuries. He made his first career start the season opener against the New York Giants and has 35 tackles and 1 1/2 sacks.
The Cowboys signed Brown to their practice squad October 24, but he hasn't been on the active roster. He was released from the Indianapolis Colts' practice squad Oct. 20.
On behalf of the entire Colts family, our sincerest condolences go out to Jerry's family and friends, Colts general manager Ryan Grigson said in a statement. He was a good teammate that was well liked by all. Today's tragic news is just another reminder of how fragile life is and how everyday given is a gift.
Brown played for San Antonio in the Arena Football League this year. In 2011, he played for Jacksonville in the AFL and the Hamilton Tiger-Cats in the Canadian Football League.
He was born and grew up in St. Louis, attending Vashon High School.
Brent, who is named Joshua Price-Brent in the police news release, is being held without bond. Argumaniz also said Brent missed a 10 a.m. Saturday booking session with a judge because he was intoxicated. He did not know if Brent had an attorney.
Brent is scheduled to appear before a magistrate Sunday, which is when a bond will be set.
While Argumaniz said they received multiple 911 calls from people at the scene of the crash, he said none of those individuals actually witnessed the crash.
Authorities have asked that anyone who may have witnessed the crash call police at 972-721-2762.

Most Wanted Live Online: Survival of the Fastest
June 07, 2012
We recently took the world's press and some lucky Need for Speed fans through our live online demonstration. If you weren't lucky enough to be at our E3 demo, here's what you missed.
Our online play's about freedom and nonstop competition.
You're free to meet up with your friends and drive anywhere in the city. No rules. No restrictions. Explore the city with your friends in a Private Game.
It's fun to just screw around, comparing cars, wrecking each other, racing, exploring the city looking for hidden gameplay, competing for fastest times, longest jumps, biggest drifts – whatever you want to do. Switch to Public Play and everything changes.
It's about intense competition, team games, persistent scoring, deep ranking and endless rewards and Modifications.
We don't like to interrupt your time in the car, so even our menus don't stop the driving.
An automated "PlayList Director" serves up the first challenge, and a dot appears on the map. Drive to it, and you'll discover the start of a new event, say a race. Arriving late to the start, you just have to smash through any waiting players like bowling pins; it's too tempting to resist! Our starting grids can be pretty chaotic.
When everyone's in position behind the line, we count down to the start. Jump the gun, and your engine momentarily cuts out making you a massive target for the chasing pack.
Once the race is under way, floor it for the first checkpoint. Our racing's fast, exciting and open. Winning's a combination of driving skill, aggression and knowledge of the world.
How well you drift your car through oncoming traffic is nearly as important as taking down your rivals or anticipating the route ahead at 180 mph.
We're not into lobby screens, so when you cross the line, you're free to do what you want, while you wait for the rest of the group to finish. Park up and relax, explore the new area or 180 and head back into the race to mix it up. Taking out rivals as they blast towards the finish line at the end of a long, hard race is endlessly entertaining.
There are no lobbies between events, so you're free to keep driving, switch cars, explore the city, vote the next event or get revenge on your rivals by smashing them off the road: usually the latter.
The next event is a Speed Camera challenge. Head to the location, get a decent run up and hit your nitrous to blast through it as fast as you can. The goal is to record the fastest time before the countdown reaches zero.
Timing is key, leave it too late, and the location might be too heavily congested for a clear run, go too soon and you might not give yourself long enough to wind up to maximum speed. Knowledge of the world obviously plays a huge part, and of course you'll have to contend with your friends and rivals trying to take you down throughout.
Next up is a Jump event. Record the longest total distance jumped before the timer reaches zero. Before the challenge location is revealed you have a chance to switch cars.
Gambling on a lighter, off-road car like the Impreza would pay off in this event. Big time.
A key tactic is to reach the jump first and ensure a clean launch, but since some jumps can be hit in both directions, knowledge of the world will give you a huge advantage.
Team Race is next. Players are split into two teams and score for position. The team with the highest combined score wins, but it's heavily weighted in favor of first place; sacrificing your position to get a team-mate across the line first pays off. As does turning around, once you finish and trying to wreck incoming players from the other team.
The PlayList keeps track of who's scoring and winning through the session and keeps serving up Events and Challenges, based on your game preferences. You can join or leave anytime.
Burnout fans will immediately recognise the approach from Paradise's Freeburn Challenges, but this time we've layered in deep ranking, persistent scoring, intense competition, real cars and Autolog™ to create something very special indeed.

Morne Steyn says the Reds' Will Genia is quickly closing in on the standard Fourie du Preez set for scrumhalves and adds he will be the Bulls' priority when the sides meet this weekend.
Du Preez, who left the Bulls last year to take up a contract with Japanese club Suntory Sungoliath, had often spoken of the Reds' No 9 in glowing terms. He praised his distribution, decision-making under pressure and his tactical kicking. It is the latter attribute Steyn highlights as Genia's most potent weapon.
'There's a perception the Reds run everything, but they play the percentages very well. Genia at No 9 is the reason for their ability to do this,' Steyn told keo.co.za.
'He and Fourie play very similar types of games. He just controls territory so well with his boot. The back three will have to get their positioning spot on to avoid being turned. Fourie is still in a class of his own but Genia is getting better with experience and I think he can be as good.'
Asked about the keys to nullifying Genia, Steyn said: 'It is difficult to keep him completely quiet but a scrumhalf has limited influence if his pack is going backwards. We believe we have the pack of forwards to dominate theirs and that will go some way to reducing his influence. That said, he is a game breaker who can also create something out of nothing.'
The Reds have been hit by a string of injuries, most notably to flyhalf Mike Harris, who has already returned to Brisbane. Harris has been central to their success, converting the majority of the penalties they have created through pressure-building phase play and/or dominant defence. They have also dangerous winger Digby Ioane missing, his tip-tackle on Marcell Coetzee at the weekend earning him a five week suspension.
The Bulls have lost flank Deon Stegmann to injury but have been boosted by the return of midfielder Johann Sadie, who was injured in their opening match, while scrumhalf Francois Hougaard also makes a comeback following his one match ban for a dangerous tackle against the Cheetahs.
In light of the aforementioned points, the Bulls are widely expected to beat the defending champions at Loftus on Saturday. Steyn agreed that they are favourites but cautioned against underestimating the Reds.
'We've been in situations like they have and pulled off wins against the odds,' he said. 'I don't know how they will react to the setbacks but they are a team with a lot of character.'
Steyn added that the absentees are unlikely to influence their approach. 'I don't think they'll play expansively,' he said. 'You saw how well they did by taking the Sharks on up front. The injuries came at bad times for them and so did Digby Ioane's yellow card, so the result could have been very different.'

Audio will be added later today.
Rep. Gerry Connolly (D-Va.)
Do you plan to shop those holiday deals on Friday? Well, members of Congress have their own version of Black Friday. After the turkey is eaten, they've got to get back to the tough task of the federal budget
Anthony Amendolia — chief of subsistence for Europe and the Middle East, Defense Logistics Agency
Tens of thousands of service members are overseas this holiday season. But that doesn't mean they won't get the comforts of home. Anthony Amendolia is chief of subsistence for Europe and the Middle East at the Defense Logistics Agency. He's the guy who placed the order for 500 turkeys to Afghanistan.
Alex Bolton — senior staff writer, The Hill
Alex Bolton, a senior staff writer with The Hill newspaper, talks to The Federal Drive with Tom Temin and Emily Kopp about how some on Capitol Hill are preparing for the approaching fiscal cliff.
Alexander, Bennet give leaders emergency plan to avoid 'fiscal cliff'
Sen. Baucus seeks to ensure Finance panel's involvement in 'fiscal cliff' talks
Steve Lord — Director of Homeland Security and Justice Issues, GAO
The Transportation Security Administration plans to screen about 3 million travelers this Thanksgiving weekend. It's a good bet that not everything will go smoothly. Say, the security guard is just a bit too rough with grandma's pumpkin pie. Well, you could file a complaint with the agency. But don't hold your breath for a response. The Government Accountability Office has examined TSA's complaint process.
Cybersecurity Update
- Most of us won't get a peek at the secret cybersecurity directive President Barack Obama recently signed. The National Security Agency has said "no" to a Freedom of Information Act request. The group that made the request, Electronic Privacy Information Center, put the rejection letter online. The NSA said: Presidential Policy Directive 20 is properly classified as Top Secret and Secret. The agency said releasing it could harm national security. The policy, first leaked to the Washington Post, sets out how federal agencies should respond and even prevent cyber attacks. It's a more-aggressive update of an eight-year-old policy.The Center said it wanted to see whether the directive gave the military power to oversee cybersecurity at telecom companies. (EPIC)
- Millions are expected to continue their Black Friday shopping online on cyber Monday. Service members and families may take advantage of a new technology to get a few more deals. Stores that do business online have been slow to offer the same military discounts that they do in their brick-and-mortar stores. They had no simple way of validating military service until now, according to the White House. It's praising a new ID-verification tool offered by McLean-based Troop Swap. Clothing maker Under Armour of Baltimore was the first to adopt the technology, known as Troop ID. (Washington Business Journal/White House)
DoD Report
- Expect more stealth and drones in the military's future. Defense Secretary Leon Panetta said counter-terrorism efforts are taking a new turn. He said the military will go after al-Qaida beyond declared war zones like Afghanistan. The military's go-to weapon will be its small strike forces. It will work more closely with other countries, through joint missions, training and other assistance. But that doesn't mean the military will abandon Afghanistan after most troops withdraw in two years. Panetta said the United States has a long-term commitment. Extremist groups cannot wait it out. He spoke at the Center for a New American Security. (Federal News Radio)
- No matter what happens with the federal budget, next year will be historic for defense contractors. Women will head the three biggest weapons' makers. Marilyn Hewson will become CEO of Lockheed Martin in Bethesda, Md., on Jan. 1. Phebe Novakovic takes the helm of General Dynamics then too. They'll join Linda Hudson at the top. The CEO of BAE Systems said it's not a signal that defense firms offer equal opportunities for men and women. Hudson told Reuters she'll believe that when more women serve at all levels of management throughout the industry. (Reuters)
- The U.S. government has filed a lawsuit against a defense contractor it says inflated costs. Houston-based KBR and its Kuwaiti subcontractor provided troops with thousands of live-in trailers to replace tents during the Iraq War. The lawsuit says the companies overcharged for those trailers by nearly $50 million. It also says they misrepresented delays. KBR was once the engineering and construction arm of Halliburton. A spokeswoman for the company called the lawsuit "baseless and without merit." (Federal News Radio)
- A staff sergeant faces up to four years and nine months in prison for hazing. The Fayetteville Observer reports, a military jury has found Andrew Van Bockel guilty of maltreatment in the case of Pvt. Danny Chen. Chen allegedly killed himself last year after fellow soldiers called him racial slurs and ordered him to speak Chinese. Van Bockel was his squad sergeant. He said Chen was weak and often fell asleep. He called his actions "corrective training." Chen was from New York's Chinatown and his death outraged the city's Chinese community. They say he was tortured. The jury will deliberate Van Bockel's sentence today. (Federal News Radio)
