The mid-sixties were a time of increased experimentation and political outspokenness for filmmakers in Czechoslovakia, thanks to the increasing relaxation of government censorship that peaked in 1967 with the sweeping reforms of the Prague Spring, and which came to a crashing halt with the Russian invasion the following year. Of the films produced during that brief renaissance, Vaclav Vorlicek's Who Wants to Kill Jessie? is far from the most radical or subversive. But it is just possible that viewing it would have been enough to convince the CCCP standard bearers back in Moscow that the Czechs were having entirely too much fun for their own good.
GI Joe: The Movie
Back in October of 2003, when I was still gainfully employed as a writer at Toyfare magazine, I was given the following assignment: using my vast and shameful knowledge of things both Transformer and GI Joe, I was to write an article, using a series of pre-determined questions and criteria, pitting the two iconic toy lines against each other in a battle for overall supremacy. Hey, it's the sort of things we did back then as grown men and women. I can't say I went into the article without some degree of personal bias. I had a huge GI Joe collection when I was in middle school. My Transformers collection was OK, but GI Joe is where all my time and money went — partly because there was so much more you could buy, and partly because collecting GI Joe figures was a lot easier on a lawn mowing allowance than collecting the much pricier Transformers figures. And for a kid with a big, wooded back yard, the potential play value of GI Joe was considerably more substantial — and yes, I was eleven years old; I played with my GI Joes.
Black Eagle
There's a story about the day Sho Kosugi first arrived in the United States in pursuit of his dream of movie stardom. As the legend goes — for surely anything related to Sho Kosugi must qualify as legend, shrouded in myth, mist, and mystery — Sho stepped off the plane at LAX and meant to board a bus bound for Los Angeles' Little Tokyo district, where he intended to begin building his new life. Unfortunately, the young Kosugi could neither read nor understand very much English and so got on the wrong bus. Eventually, he found himself deposited in a rough part of town where he was promptly set upon by a trio of knife-wielding thugs. Calling upon the martial arts training he'd had while living in Japan, he quickly dispatched one of the assailants and sent the other two fleeing in terror. Somehow, a police car showed up and, after a detour down to the station, Sho finally found his way to Little Tokyo.
Trip To Moon
In the Summer of 2003, the movie Koi Mil Gaya opened on India's theater screens. While in most respect no different from other big budget Bollywood romances of its day, the picture boasted a couple of elements that enabled its publicity department to set it apart from the pack. If you've seen the film, you know what I'm talking about: Our hero, played by doe-eyed muscle farmer Hrithik Roshan, is one of those lovable movie retarded guys, but a lovable movie retarded guy who somehow has to be gotten into pole position to romance the film's lovable but not at all retarded heroine, who is played by Preity Zinta. How KMG bridges this troublesome, albeit poignant, gap is to have Hrithik granted a genius IQ as the result of his close encounter with a gnomish, benevolent space alien.
Dirty Pair: Project Eden
It's customary (and a tad predictable) at this point for me to preface any review of an older anime title with some rose-tinted reflection on how it was in "the old days," when we were trading VHS tapes by U.S. mail and had but a smattering of titles available for rent or purchase here in the United States. So let's skip that part, since as fun as it is to drag those hoary old chestnuts out into the realm of public discourse yet again, the truth of the matter is it was never very much fun when we all had to do it. Nostalgia for "a simpler time" aside, I really don't miss running off tapes on clunky old VCRs, waiting in disorganized lines at the overcrowded post office, then hoping that the virtual stranger at the other end of the transaction actually receives the package and, even more importantly, actually gets around to reciprocating. And then you finally have your own copy of whatever it was you were trading for, complete with shaky quality and occasional tracking problems.
Underworld Beauty
Ever since his rediscovery, it seems like Seijun Suzuki has had the term "Maverick Director" permanently affixed to his name like some kind of mandatory honorific. However, given the rigidity of the Japanese studio system within which he spent his peak years, Suzuki never would have had the opportunity to achieve that maverick status had he not at some point been able to tow the line and deliver the straightforward genre pictures that he had been hired to create. That he was capable of doing that and then some is more than amply demonstrated by Underworld Beauty, an outstanding little noir programmer that he directed during his early years at Nikkatsu.
Hare Rama Hare Krishna
When the idea was pitched for a "counter culture" theme for a B-Masters Round Table, I was both excited and apprehensive. On the one hand, it was a subject with which I had acute first-hand experience, which meant I wouldn't have to rely simply on theory and supposition to extract some sort of a review from the material. I could ramble on endlessly about some obscure thing that happened to me back when I was sixteen and the world was new. I was, however, also apprehensive, as I am sometimes loathe to throw myself into public discourse regarding the counter-cultures with which I have some connection. Not because I'm ashamed, mind you. Hell, I'm still associated in some way with pretty much every loony thing I ever believed in or adopted as an identity. But I've read a lot of the "studies" about these things.
The Devil's Partner
Let me be up front: the whole reason I wanted to watch this film in the first place was because the poster art featured a torch-wielding naked woman riding atop a tormented centaur. I knew it was probable nothing like that would ever occur in the actual movie (and I wasn't disappointed in my pre-disappointment), but I felt like I owed it to the movie never the less to give it a look see. And while it doesn't feature a naked woman galloping about on a centaur, it still turned out to be, to my old eyes, a surprisingly effective and creepy, if somewhat modest, tale of Satanism and revenge from beyond the grave.
Times Square
The chances were slim to none that any of Hollywood's early attempts to depict the punk/new wave scene would be anywhere near on the mark, but that didn't stop me and my friends from dragging our black clad, funny haircut havin' asses to every single one of them. I think that we were flattered by these films' failure to pin us down, as if that was somehow a testament to both our own uniqueness and the singularity of our cultural moment. The truth, of course, was that such misfires were less the result of failed effort than they were of the filmmakers' halfheartedness in their attempts to cash in on what I'm sure they considered to be a fleeting fad. In any case, few of these movies were more destined to get it wrong than Times Square. A film whose promotion rode hard on both the vaguely punkish look of its two leads and a soundtrack choked with some of the era's biggest names in radio-friendly new wave, Times Square was ultimately too confused in its execution and garbled by post-production mishandling to come off as clearly being about anything, much less a movement in music and style that, by 1980, was starting to look a bit confused and garbled itself.
If Footmen Tire You, What Will Horses Do?
People, Estus Pirkle is not screwing around. When this diminutive Baptist preacher from New Albany, Mississippi looks into the camera and describes an America whose small towns' streets are littered with the corpses of murdered children, he is not presenting us with a "what if" scenario. He is telling us in no uncertain terms what will happen — within twenty-four months, no less — if America doesn't get serious about Jesus. And if those words alone aren't chilling enough, he has in his service a seasoned veteran of 1960s Southern exploitation cinema who will utilize all the tricks of his trade to bring them to vivid, bloody life for your terror and edification. Never mind that drive-in theaters are counted among the litany of evils that Pirkle says are driving our country to ruin; the man is obviously not stupid. As long as it's God's work that's being done, it's safe to assume that he doesn't mind if it's the Devil doing it.

Azerbaijani Embassy Worker Shot Dead in Egypt, Ministry Says
Jan. 30 (Bloomberg) -- An Azerbaijani embassy worker was shot dead in Egypt yesterday, the Foreign Ministry said.
Nijat Gojayev, the embassy accountant, was fatally wounded when he was returning home from work in Cairo, ministry spokesman Elkhan Polukhov said in an interview with Bloomberg.
It is unclear who opened the fire, Polukhov said, adding that Gojayev's body would be flown home today.
Gojayev was killed by a stray bullet, Hikmat Hajiyev, first secretary of the Azerbaijani embassy, told private Azerbaijani news channel ANS.
President Ilham Aliyev has told his government to organize the evacuation of Azerbaijani nationals from Egypt.

Re: Trip planning
James advice and figures are spot on and sound. You want to be to the Miah Maul area by 11:23 when the current changes and heads against you.
Anchoring behind Reedy is easily done, however I would not enter this anchorage after dark if you have never been there as it is narrow and unlit between two rock jetty's. Assuming you leave Rock Hall in the AM this should not be a big deal as it is only 58 miles or 11-12 hours, I would go for this approach as you will have a quick ride on the "Express" the following day and Make Cape May Canal Entrance ( 44 nm) by 1 PM.
I would suggest leaving Reedy at 6- 6:30 as the flood has 1 more hour and run into the ebb. You get about 5.5 hours of ebb averaging 7 knots under motor sail.
Your boat fits easily under the bridges in the Cape May Canal ( 55ft) saving you another 2 hours. You should be tied up at Utches at 2-3 PM giving you plenty of time to clean up, and have a few cold ones.
As we previously discussed the run to Barnegat can easily be accomplished in 1 or two days ( 30 miles to Atlantic City and 65 to Barnegat). I would not be concerned about the current direction too much unless there is an NE or E component in the wind. Breaking it up will certainly be more leisurely and giving yourself some daylight time to go through the very winding shoaled Sedge Island channel to the Barnegat Bay in good day light is a good idea.
Your plan is a good one Good luck

None of the measures were significantly altered in both HD cohorts tested and none correlated with HD disease stage. Only one substance, C-reactive protein (CRP), was decreased in early HD but this was found in only one of the two cohorts, so the finding may not be reliable. The investigators were unable to confirm other studies that had found HD-related changes in other inflammatory markers, including components of the complement system.
Some markers correlated with clinical measures. For instance, ApoE was positively correlated with depression and irritability scores, suggesting an association between ApoE and mood changes.
Even though recent data suggest that the immune system is likely to be a modifier of HD disease, inflammatory proteins do not seem to be likely candidates to be biomarkers for HD. "Many proteomic studies designed to provide potential biomarkers of disease have generated significant findings, however, often these biomarkers fail to replicate during the validation process," says Bjrkqvist.

SpectrumDNA to Launch Game-Changing Location-Based Social Media Engine Called PlanetTagger
UCLA Anderson School's Entertainment and Media Management Institute Will Be First To Premier Product as Knowledge Exchange Platform
The product is a scalable, SaaS (software-as-a-service) engine that can be white-labeled and customized for any brand, website or media property. The purpose of PlanetTagger is to combine the best of geo-positioning, location-based services and mobile messaging and offer it to organizations that are already spending the time and money to engage a particular niche or "mega-niche" affinity group–from Nascar enthusiasts, to business or adventure travelers, to college communities or sports fans–in order to create a more powerful and relevant community of people and events.
"PlanetTagger is like a Facebook, Twitter, Flickr, Google maps, Meetup and the iPhone all rolled into one simplified application that can be hyper-localized and branded," said Founder and CEO
"With PlanetTagger, we're going to help media professionals facilitate their first life instead of trying to get them to build a second life online," said
"EMMI is leap-frogging the classic 'web brochure' and contemporary social networking approaches, by implementing location-based-services technology as it applies specifically to media and entertainment professionals," adds Mr. Banister.
PlanetTagger marks the second product release from SpectrumDNA, a social media studio that creates Digital Network Applications and engines of engagement (or "Enginets"). The company recently found success with the wildly popular product, Addictionary, a SaaS user-generated dictionary that lets people create their own words and definitions.
"The market opportunity for PlanetTagger is endless," said

Man Gets 71 Months for Tax Conspiracy
by Terri Eyden on printer friendly
Elmo Antonio George was sentenced to seventy-one months in prison for his role in a conspiracy to defraud the IRS and for filing false tax returns, the Justice Department and IRS announced.
On March 16, 2012, George and another individual, Nasheba Necia Hunte, were convicted by a jury in Ft. Lauderdale, Florida, for a conspiracy to defraud the IRS that spanned from as early as January 2003 through at least April 2007. George and Hunte were also each convicted of two counts of filing false 2005 and 2006 individual income tax returns, on which they claimed false tax refunds for themselves. Hunte was sentenced to fifty-one months in prison on May 31, 2012.
The indictment alleged that in February 2005, George incorporated Winco Holdings Inc. in Florida. George and Hunte were the only officers of Winco, and despite having no employees and paying no wages, the defendants filed employment tax returns on behalf of Winco for quarters in 2005, 2006, and 2007, that falsely claimed substantial quarterly employment tax withholdings for Winco employees. None of the withholding amounts were paid over to the IRS. In February 2007, a fraudulent check for $1,676,991.16 was written from Winco's bank account to the U.S. Treasury for Winco's employment tax obligations. The check was signed "contact maker for authority to pay."
Employment Tax Evasion Stats
Following are statistics from the IRS regarding employment tax evasion crimes for years 2009, 2010, and 2011.
- Investigations Initiated ‒ 153
- Prosecution Recommendations ‒ 110
- Indictments/Informations ‒ 85
- Sentenced ‒ 79
- Average Months to Serve ‒ 24
- Investigations Initiated ‒ 166

- Investigations Initiated ‒ 174
- Prosecution Recommendations ‒ 83
- Indictments/Informations ‒ 69
- Sentenced ‒ 69
- Average Months to Serve ‒ 25
The indictment also alleged that the defendants filed corporate tax returns for Winco for tax years 2005 and 2006 that reported fictitious partnership losses. These fictitious losses then "passed through" to the defendants' individual income tax returns, along with the false Winco wage and withholding amounts. These withholding amounts generated false refunds for both defendants for tax years 2005 and 2006.
The evidence at trial established that the IRS remitted refunds to George and Hunte totaling approximately $241,807 for tax year 2005. George's refund was deposited into a joint bank account of another entity, Dikingdom Inc. With the false refund, the defendants bought a home for $145,500 for cash in Villa Rica, Georgia. To conceal the purchase of this property and the proceeds of the fraud, George deeded the property to an alias named the Overseer of Dikingdom. George also falsely claimed that a church owned the property. According to evidence presented in court, the total intended tax loss was over $1 million.
The evidence also established that less than one week after IRS-Criminal Investigation tried to contact the defendants, Hunte changed her home address in her employment contact documents from Villa Rica, Georgia, to a nonexistent address. When special agents of IRS-Criminal Investigation attempted contact with Hunte, she affirmatively denied who she was to the agents.

Originally published in Bio-Science Law Review - November 2012.
On 20 March 2012, in Mayo Collaborative Servs v Prometheus Labs, Inc., the Supreme Court of the United States invalidated diagnostic treatment process claims for effectively claiming the laws of nature underlying the claimed invention. To reach this decision, the court reviewed the 'guideposts' set by its previous guidance regarding patent eligibility, and compared the claims-at-issue with those previously considered by the court. In Mayo, the court erected a new guidepost, one with particular relevance for the medical community, as the decision specifically addresses medical diagnostic treatments, but also one which may impact the general patentability of any invention that relies upon laws of nature or natural correlations to describe that invention.
Some patent attorneys in the United States fear that the court's invalidation of the medical diagnostic patents at-issue may unduly limit the patentability of future innovation in the medical community. This fear, in some respects, has already come to fruition in that a US District Court recently used Mayo's guidance to invalidate claims drawn to methods and systems for selecting a therapeutic regimen, as discussed further below.
Further, while the effect of Mayo is not yet clear, and may not be for years, another concern is that the court unduly expanded the patent eligibility doctrine beyond its ascribed 'screening function' and blurred the distinction between patent eligibility and the concepts of anticipation and obviousness.

CHAMBLEE, Georgia (WXIA) -- Imagine having a sick pet and knowing there's a cure you just can't afford.
It can be heartbreaking to pet owners, but a Georgia vet clinic wants to make the price of survival a cost any one can afford.
The clinic helped save the life of Dietrick Pierce's dog, Pierre.
"He's family," Pierce said.
A $1,000 surgery was needed to save Pierre's life. It's an operation Pierce couldn't afford when she discovered her dog's severe eye injury.
"I was scared for him and hurt and didn't know what it days going to do about it and I didn't have a enough funds for it," Pierce said.
Then she discovered WellPet Humane, a different kind of animal clinic with a full waiting room and a full commitment.
"If we feel like somebody us really in need and doesn't have the money to take care if of their animal we will offer them assistance," said Dr. Amy Orlin.

Latest Atacama Large Millimeter Array Stories
Astronomers gazing deep into the night sky to uncover the Universe's secrets will soon be able to discover even more star-births and planets thanks to new telescopes being built in Chile and Mexico drawing on space technology.
The Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Array (ALMA) has passed a key milestone crucial for the high quality images that will be the trademark of this revolutionary new tool for astronomy.
NEWTON, N.C., Nov.
A team of astronomers and engineers at the Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Array (ALMA) have made the first interferometric measurements of radio signals — so-called "fringes†— of an astronomical source from the observatory's 5000-meter "high site†of Chajnantor.
Astronomers using the National Science Foundation's Very Large Array (VLA) radio telescope have gained tantalizing insights into the nature of the most distant object ever observed in the Universe -- a gigantic stellar explosion known as a Gamma Ray Burst (GRB).
The ALMA (Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Array) astronomical observatory took another step forward and upward, as one of its state-of-the-art antennas was carried for the first time to Chile's 16,500-foot-high plateau of Chajnantor on the back of a giant, custom-built transporter.
Astronomers have unveiled an unprecedented new atlas of the inner regions of the Milky Way, our home galaxy, peppered with thousands of previously undiscovered dense knots of cold cosmic dust — the potential birthplaces of new stars.
Scientists and engineers working on the world's largest ground-based astronomical project, the Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Array (ALMA), have achieved another milestone — the successful linking of two ALMA astronomical antennas, synchronized with a precision of one millionth of a millionth of a second — to observe the planet Mars.
Europe is sending its first home-built receiver to the largest radio telescope array ever constructed, nestled in its permanent home in Chile.
ALMA is on its way to developing observational capabilities with resonance 10 times that of the current state of the art.

Kim Kardashian Wants You to Watch Her Wedding
Don't worry if your invite to Kim Kardashian and Kris Humphries' wedding gets lost in the mail, you'll be able to watch it all on TV. An insider tells me that Kim is in talks with Ryan Seacrest's production company to televise her over-the-top wedding on E!
"It will be a two-hour stand alone special," my source reveals. "[Kim] is so used to having cameras follow her that she doesn't even notice them any more. Kim really wants her fans to celebrate with her on the most important day of her life."
Kim and Kris announced their engagement on the cover of PEOPLE magazine, which is considered the front-runner to land an exclusive deal to publish official photographs from the wedding.
One thing's for certain, the Kardashians are not a flash in the pan or some fad when it comes to their appeal on the small screen.
"Anyone that thought these girls were going to be stars for 15 minutes like Paris Hilton was wrong," a high powered TV executive tells me. "We are now on season 6 of their show and it shows no sign of slowing down. Kim's wedding will be ratings gold ... then we can look forward to the episode when she has a baby."

IDC: Companies select open source for safety reasons
In a survey by market-researcher IDC, companies in Australia, Korea, India and China quote better protection against vulnerabilities gaps as the main reason for the implementation of Open Source technology.
The survey titled "The Momentum of Open Source" comes to the conclusion that organizations in India and the People's Republic of China use more Open Source Software (OSS) than in Australia and Korea. In all four countries small to mid-sized enterprises (SMEs) deploy more free software than larger enterprises. "The results indicate that organizations perceived open source technology as providing better security compared to proprietary products", said Prianka Srinivasan, a market analyst with IDCs Asia/Pacific software research team. Although the market-researcher still see cost-efficiency as the key factor, OSS is now used for a precisely defined range of tasks.
Security is of the reasons for the implementation of Open Source software, says US market researcher IDC.
Decision makers all over the world use OSS primarily for security reasons, with economy taking second place. Korea is the only country where budget concerns are more important. SMEs in Korea also see the quality of the free software and better management tools as the main benefit. "IDC believes that open source technology and software will appear in the higher end of the application stack in the coming years", Srinivasan predicts, adding that "Commercial vendors of open source software will need to provide extensive support and training services, as well as address the issues of interoperability, in order to take advantage of the addressable market for open source technology in the region." The survey is based on the results and analyses of the more comprehensive IDC Exclusive Software Adoption Survey from 2007.

Questions tagged with 'feel'http://www.grammarly.com/answers/questions/tags/feel2015-05-22T20:12:25ZThe use of feelhttp://www.grammarly.com/answers/questions/50711-the-use-of-feel/
 One I'd like to point out i'm horrible at grammar and words but, I am trying.
 I was wondering if someone said "I feel like going for a walk" or "I feel like eating that donut," is this the correct term.
 I don't think so as I think that 'I feel like going for a walk' should be 'I want to go for a walk.' As you can't emotionally or physically feel like doing something.

 But like I said, I suck at this kind of stuff.

 Thank you for your answers, in advance

asked Jun 21 '14 at 22:16 by Tamara, New member

1 answer

 "I feel like going for a walk." is a perfectly legitimate sentence grammatically and emotionally.

 Feel pain or fainthttp://www.grammarly.com/answers/questions/48465-feel-pain-or-faint/
 A sign at the gym says, "Stop if you feel pain or faint." I thought it should say, "Stop if you feel pain or feel faint." Is that second "feel" needed to convey the true meaning?

asked Mar 03 '14 at 23:54 by John, New member

2 answers

 I agree that it should be 'feel faint'. If someone fainted, they would automatically stop.

answered Mar 04 '14 at 13:03 by Lewis Neidhardt, Grammarly Fellow

I agree, John. Since faint is also a verb, it is awkward. Of course you would stop if you faint. You'll be lying on the floor. I would change it to light-headed.

I thought the Redbull/A1 ring looked great, and I like the elevation changes etc but the racing was dull.
I have no problem with track length though, a mix of short and long tracks through the season is a good thing.

Windy weather frustrates anglers
NEW ORLEANS — If you're like most Louisiana anglers — including this one — you've probably spent the PAST few weeks bellyaching about the incessantly windy weather, boring all your non-angling friends with claims that this has been the windiest April of your life.
Well, turns out you were probably right. The proof is in this comment:
"I don't know about the windiest of all-time, but I definitely tell you it's the windiest we've had in 17 years."
Bass club membership increases
CAVE CITY — By the conclusion of its fifth regular season tournament Saturday, the Cave City Bass Club had 41 paid members, reported tournament director Ron Watkins.
"We hope to pick up five or six more" through the remainder of the season, he said.
David Wooten and Chris Richardson won the tournament on Lake Norfork by catching five fish totaling 13.55 pounds.
Michael Holt and Tracy Hunter caught five that totaled 12.80 pounds for second place and Mark Owens and Levi Moser teamed for a five-fish limit of 8.40 pounds.
Dover High School team wins state fishing title
LAKE MAUMELLE — Kendall Goates and Cody Chessher were the top anglers in Saturday's Student Angler Federation Arkansas State High School Bass Fishing Championship on Lake Maumelle.
The duo pulled in a total of five fish weighing 12.25 pounds.
The tournament was originally scheduled for the Arkansas River, but high water forced it to be moved to Lake Maumelle. Record-setting flooding in Arkansas has various parts of state underwater.
Seventy-one teams registered to fish the inaugural event.
Sign up now for elk hunts
LITTLE ROCK — If you want to hunt elk in Arkansas, now's the time to sign up for the opportunity. The Arkansas Game and Fish Commission's permit process for a free chance to hunt the state's largest game animal is available now.
May is application time for a chance to win one of 24 permits to hunt elk in the Buffalo River country of Arkansas. The hunt dates this year in elk compartments 1, 2, 3 and 4 are Sept. 26-30 and Dec. 5-9.
The season for the private land elk management Zone (Boone, Carroll, Madison, Newton and Searcy counties; excluding Boxley Valley) is Dec. 5-9.
Three basketball camps set at Southside
SOUTHSIDE — Southside High School will host three basketball camps during the summer months, announced Coach Brad McGhee.
The camp for girls and boys entering grades K through 3 is set for May 31-June 3. A camp for boys entering grades 4 through 7 is slated for June 13-16, and a girls grades 4-8 camp is scheduled for July 11, 12, 14 and 15.
The cost of each camp is $50, which includes a camp T-shirt. The first two camps will from 8:30 a.m. until 11. The third will also start at 8:30 a.m. and run an hour longer.
Concessions will be available at each camp.
Bad Boy Promotions to host 'Friday the 13th Fight Night'
Professional boxing is set to return to Batesville as Bad Boy Promotions presents "Friday the 13th Fight Night" at the National Guard Armory in Batesville.
"This will be the fifth show of its kind to take place at the intimate venue and each show seems to bring more excitement," promoter Brandon Foster said.
Josh Williams, who collected a come-from-behind knockout victory on the December 11th boxing card at the Armory, is scheduled for a 6-round bout against Memphis' Keunrtey Henson, who also holds a victory at the Armory.
Former Pioneers Palese, Kelley win postseason baseball awards
BARTELSVILLE, Okla. — Former Batesville Pioneers Jake Palese and Kraig Kelley won postseason honors for the Oklahoma Wesleyan Eagles, according to the school's website.
Palese, a sophomore third baseman, was named to a first-team all-region squad. Kelley, a freshman catcher, won the Midlands Collegiate Athletic Conference Freshman of the Year Award and was named to the all-conference second team.
Drag racing results announced
NEWPORT — Gary Spicer, Patrick Nephew, John Taylor, Jason Russell and Hannah Hodge were winners at Speedy's on Sunday, according to information provided to the Guard.
Spicer was followed by Steve Mack and Steve Simpson in the street class, Nephew was chased by Ken Thomas and Bill Smith in the foot brake class, Tony Newberry and Don Stitcher finished behind Taylor in the super pro class, and Russell beat Joey Bogard down the strip in the outlaw street bike class.
Hodge was the only junior dragster listed.
Batesville Motor Speedway hoping to race Friday night
LOCUST GROVE — Maybe, just maybe, the Batesville Motor Speedway will refire its engine for points racing Friday night.
After several rain-related cancellations, there's a good chance racing action will resume this week.
Track owner and promoter Mooney Starr always takes the optimistic approach, so the 30-percent chance of rain in Friday's forecast means there's a 70-percent chance it won't rain.
Music star not only one from Foreman hitting high notes
Foreman is famous for being the hometown of country music superstar Tracy Lawrence, but it's also developed a reputation for winning softball state championships.
The Foreman Lady Gators are scheduled to take on the Cedar Ridge Lady Timberwolves Friday in the first round of the Class 2A State Tournament at Pine Bluff's Regional Park.
Foreman has won five straight state championships and has appeared in the last six title games.
Southerners first up among area 9s in state events
The Southside Southerners are first up among the Guard-circulation area baseball teams playing in state tournament games, and they've drawn a team whose school is a legend in Arkansas high school sports.
As the fourth seeds, the 17-10 Southerners are scheduled to take on the third-seeded Nashville Scrappers in the Class 4A State Tournament at Valley View High School in Jonesboro at noon Friday.
Bass tourney site changed
The site for this weekend's Batesville Bassmasters regular season tournament has been changed, club officials have announced.
The tournament will be from 6 a.m. to 3 p.m. Saturday on Bull Shoals Lake, out of the Dam Site Park ramp.
The tournament was originally scheduled for Lake Dardanelle.
Winners of the April 30-May 1 tournament on Bull Shoals Lake were also announced.
Billy Littleton and Bobby Littleton teamed to catch 31.33 pounds to win the event. They caught 11.88 pounds the first day and 19.45 pounds the second day.

AC Milan chief Galliani reveals plans for Kaka talks with Real Madrid
AC Milan vice-president Adriano Galliani has declared they will try to re-sign Real Madrid midfielder Kaka.
Talks are expected on Tuesday when the two teams meet in Madrid, but the Vice-President is coy.
"Kaka? It is rude to talk about such things before the game with Real Madrid," smiled Galliani.
"I am invited to dinner with President Florentino Perez and we will talk about it again in five days' time.
"I must also warn fans that Kaka's return will be difficult, as he has very high wages due to the usual difference in tax rates between Italy and Spain, although things have evened out somewhat recently."

Claimed he had taken Sabrina Santiago hostage in her home and forced her to hide him and his associate Johnny Zacchara [Feb 10, 2015]
When the Jerome crime family returned to Port Charles in 2013, Carlos Rivera relocated from Puerto Rico to Port Charles to serve as the family's operations manager. Carlos had worked for the family for many years and was privy to their secrets, including the knowledge that Julian Jerome was not deceased but gaining territory in town under the alias of Derek Wells. He also knew that the Jerome family planned to take over the territory which belonged to Sonny Corinthos and Carlos offered his expertise and assistance in the take-over.
In addition to his work for Ava and Julian Jerome, Carlos had plans to rekindle his relationship with Sabrina Santiago. Carlos was disappointed to discover that Sabrina was involved in a relationship with widower Patrick Drake but not undeterred. Instead, Carlos led Sabrina to question if Patrick would ever love her as much as he had loved his deceased wife. However, Sabrina remained committed to Patrick and made plans to marry him. On the day of the wedding, Patrick's presumed deceased wife returned and interrupted the ceremony. Sabrina was heartbroken and turned to Carlos for comfort.
Just as Carlos started to think that his chances with Sabrina had improved, he was taken by Sonny Corinthos and his associate Sean Butler. They intended to kill him in order to send a message to Julian until Carlos announced that he was related to Sonny's late wife Lily Rivera. Carlos claimed that he was Lily's half-brother and Sonny decided to keep him alive until he knew the truth. He was taken to Sonny's warehouse. As Carlos attempted his escape, Sonny and his men arrived and a gunfight ensued. Carlos escaped with a gunshot wound to the arm and reached out to Sabrina for help.
Sabrina hid Carlos at her apartment and he learned that she was pregnant with Patrick's child. Sabrina feared that Patrick would accuse her of using the pregnancy to break up his marriage to Robin and she planned to hide the pregnancy. Carlos stepped in and claimed that he had fathered Sabina's child. He described the life that he and Sabrina could have together if she would agree to his lie. However, Sabrina told Patrick the truth about her pregnancy and sent Carlos away.
Meanwhile, Carlos was torn between Ava and Julian when they each asked him to keep secrets from the other. Ava confessed that she had murdered Connie Falconeri but pinned the crime on A.J. Quartermaine. Carlos agreed to murder A.J. on her behalf but his plan was foiled by Luke Spencer. Around the same time, Julian was arrested for shooting A.J. and Julian asked Carlos to garner information about Ava's connection to A.J. When someone else shot and killed A.J., Julian was arrested and cleared. He suspected that Ava was involved in the murder and asked Carlos to garner information about Ava's connection to A.J.
Carlos remained loyal to Ava until the police discovered proof that he had broken into the Quartermaine mansion and attacked A.J. When Carlos realized that the evidence was mounting against him, he felt pressured to reveal that Ava had ordered the hit. Ava sensed that his allegiance was in question and she threatened to harm Sabrina and her unborn child if Carlos did not keep her secret. When Carlos received word that Sabrina had been involved in a car accident and given birth prematurely, he believed that Ava had carried out the threat. Although Carlos had not been involved in A.J.'s murder, he confessed to the crime to ensure that no further harm would come to Sabrina or her child.
Sabrina visited Carlos in prison and he admitted that he had falsely confessed to murder to keep her safe. She appreciated what Carlos had done and was thrilled when he was released from prison after Sonny was revealed to be A.J.'s killer. Carlos returned to work immediately for Julian and Julian's new associate Johnny Zacchara. Carlos realized that neither Julian nor Johnny was in charge and Carlos chose to follow the orders given by Luke Spencer.
Under Luke's direction, Carlos went after Sonny, Julian, and Ava after they escaped from prison. He shot Ava in the chest and claimed it was payback for the time he had spent in prison and her threats to Sabrina. Carlos left Ava for dead and took his wounded partner Johnny to Sabrina's for refuge. Sabrina was horrified by what Carlos had done to Ava but she treated Johnny's wound and hid both men from the authorities. When the police did locate Carlos with Sabrina, he insisted that she was innocent because he had taken her hostage.

The city defends its decision from a purely economic standpoint.
Manny Fernandez writes, "Ilene Popkin, the agency's assistant deputy general manager for development, said it would cost $481,000 to renovate each of the 269 apartments. Demolishing the structures and building 361 new units would cost $381,700 per unit. Ms. Popkin and other officials said the three buildings had deteriorated from vandalism and exposure to the elements, and were out of context with the neighborhood. The new apartments - including public and private housing, not only for the poor but also for low-income and moderate-income families - are likely to be built in low-rise buildings."
Thanks to Rachel Thompson
The book, Robert Clifton Weaver and the American City: The Life and Times of an Urban Reformer, offers some fascinating insights into the issues covered in this article. Weaver, our nations first secretary of Housing and Urban Development and the first African-American to hold a cabinet position in the federal government, was a staunch advocate of public housing. He believed that this housing model was not only critical in addressing the immense affordable housing needs of the 50s and 60s, but represented a key step towards creating racially integrated housing communities in America.
It is intriguing to note that public housing legacy still has great symbolic meaning for many former residents. And while few will dispute the merits of demolishing these remaining structures, we should all be reminded of the meaningful purpose they once served for those who faced the ugly realities of housing discrimination.
