Shakira Lockett was a pretty good student in elementary, middle and high school. The Miami-Dade County native says she typically earned As and Bs in English classes.
Math was always something of a struggle for Lockett. Still, she got through her high school exit exam with a passing grade and went on to graduate from Coral Gables Senior High School in 2008.
She went straight to Miami Dade College. Then, something unexpected happened: She flunked the college placement exams in all three subjects — reading, writing and math. That didn't mean she couldn't attend the school; all state and community colleges in Florida have an open-door policy, which means everyone is accepted. But it did mean she had to take remedial courses before she could start college-level work.
"When they told me I had to start a Reading 2 and Reading 3 class, I was like, 'Serious?' " Lockett said. "Because I've always been good at reading."

Loss narrows at ZBB Energy; bridge financing raises $3 million
ZBB Energy Corp. said its loss declined in the fiscal fourth quarter, as it completed a bridge financing deal to raise $3 million.
The company said its loss was $3 million, or 3 cents a share, compared with $5.8 million, or 13 cents a share in the prior year.
The developer of energy storage systems and hybrid vehicle power electronics said sales declined 4.5% in the quarter ended June 30 due to lower engineering revenues, but product sales rose 9%. Sales for the full fiscal years rose 61% to $7.7 million, but the company's loss fell to $11.9 million, or 15 cents a share, from $13.7 million, or 37 cents.
"While we continue to see positive developments that will drive the long-term storage market, our order flow and revenue recognition have been uneven over the past year and we expect this unevenness to continue for the near future," said Eric Apfelbach, president and chief executive, in a statement.
ZBB has been deploying its technology in a variety of markets. During the quarter the company shipped a large system to an eco-resort on the island of Tetiaroa in Frency Polynesia, commissioned an energy storage system that provides uninterrupted power to Visa's flagship data center in Maryland, and closed an order for a prototype storage system for a large electric utility;
The Menomonee Falls-based manufacturer also said Friday it raised $3 million in a private placement offering through a preferred stock offering to members of its board of directors and other investors. The preferred shares will be convertible into common stock.
The company said the financing was needed as a bridge until it receives more revenues from strategic partnerships with largel multinational companies that could lead to licensing fees and increased sales.
"We've got a couple strategic discussions going on that we're trying to finish off right now," Apfelbach said. "We're heavily working on those."

CyanogenMod 7.2 (Gingerbread) nears completion
As much as we like to put new software on old machines, sometimes they just can't take it - you wouldn't try to play Crysis on your grandmother's 98 HP, after all. That's why we're so glad that the CyanogenMod team is continuing to support its Gingerbread build, CyanogenMod 7, with an updated release. Version 7.2 has hit Release Candidate 2 for dozens of devices, and given the team's previous work that means we're not far from a "Final" version.

Journal Sentinel sports columnist Bob Wolfley offers his take on the local and national sports scene.
Former Packers' fullback Mercein pays tribute to Steve Sabol of NFL Films
Chuck Mercein's place in National Football League history, his role in pro football's most famous game, is exactly the kind of story that attracted Steve Sabol of NFL Films.
Over the years, Sabol, as one of the chief historians of the NFL, would tell and re-tell Mercein's story in one NFL Films' form or another. And over the years, Sabol and Mercein became friends.
Sabol died on Tuesday. He was 69.
Mercein, who played a key role for the Packers in the final drive in the Ice Bowl, remembered his friend. A native of Milwaukee, Mercein, 69, resides in White Plains, N.Y.
"Steve was a big fan of the Green Bay Packers and a big fan of mine," Mercein said in a telephone interview on Friday. "He was very interested in the place in history of the (1967) Ice Bowl. He considered it the most famous game, or one of the two most famous games, in pro football history. The other of course being the 1958 championship between the Giants and the Colts."
Mercein said Sabol was captivated by the Packers' last drive in that game and the manner in which Green Bay won its third NFL championship. Sabol was in attendance.
"The role I played in the game, having the opportunity to help my team win that championship, get the half the yards in the last drive, I just think he was interested in me as a person," Mercein said. "Also I think the fact that I was an unusual story to begin with, having come out of the Ivy League and Yale University to professional football. He did lots and lots for me as far as keeping my name alive."
Mercein said Sabol produced a show in the '80s, "Call to Glory," that was hosted by astronaut and U.S. Senator John Glenn, which focused for an episode on Mercein's story. Mercein was a sales trader on Wall Street after his football career ended.
Mercein was interviewed by Sabol several times for pieces about the Packers or coach Vince Lombardi, including one of the three spokesmen about the '67 Packers season for a series called "America's Game," about the NFL championship or Super Bowl winners.
"Those kinds of themes, like loyalty and hard work, perseverance, determination, those were important things to him," Mercein said. "That was kind of the bigger picture he saw in football, the striving for excellence, people like myself who had to work extra hard perhaps, or came back from adversity."
Mercein said Sabol was captivated by the nuances of the game.
"That's what he loved the most and was most creative about," Mercein said. "He was innovative, creative and artistic."

Building electric clothing
Being an Anal-hypen-Retentive engineer and cheap-ass, I've decided to build my own electic jacket.
Cost so far:
$10 - clearance pile jacket at Target
$20 - 100 ft spool of 30ga wire with teflon insulation
$4 - clearance nylon warm-up jacket with mesh liner.
My plan is to use the nylon warm-up jacket inside-out as the liner. This will place the mesh lining in the middel. I'll weave the 30 gage wire thru the mesh, so no glue or stitching will be required.
From the following site, and from my own calcuations on wire resistivity, it is estimated that 30 -40 feet of wire will be required. The more wire, the lower the power.
I found that Newark no longer carries this wire, but I found it at the following site:
I plan on attaching the liner to the jacket with minimal stiching at the sleeves, and perhaps along the bottom of the jacket.
I'm still debating on whether to run wires down the arms, or keep it just on the torso. I was orginally going to just build a vest, but realized that if I needed a heated vest, I would most likely be wearing a jacket at the same time.
The only remaining hardware to get is a power connector. I can guarantee that I will sometimes forget to unplug before dismounting, so I need an easy release plug. I'm going to check out some large audio jacks to see if they can handle 3-4 amps of current.
If I don't spontaneously combust, I'll post a pictorial report as I put everything together.

I've heard of using a flasher relay for the low power setting of the vest.

I made an electric vest just about a year ago. It worked great, but while using it on its maiden voyage, I had a nasty crash out in the middle of nowhere in West Texas. When the Life Flight EMT's got there they had to cut it (and my almost new $600 Dainese jacket) to get it off of me.
I healed the broken bones and punctured lung, got the bike fixed, and replaced the jacket with a much cheaper but still effective replacement.
Wanting to blame anything else but my riding skills for the crash (dual sport ride on dirt road, hit rock, thrown off and hit bigger rock, etc.), so I've decided that the electric vest was bad karma. Dual sport riding is supposed to be elemental and somewhat self-abusive, and it was just wrong of me to be comfy and warm while my riding partner was miserable and cold.
I still have lots of the Belden Hookup wire, and when it gets cold out I think about tempting fate again.

So, it sounds like others have tried this before with the same 30 gage wire. I'll watch out for rocks.
Mainly, I want something that will fit easily under my 'stich for winter commuting. The 'stich is a little tighter than it was when I first got it 8 years ago.

Having the same "cheap" (my wifes' term,I prefer thrifty) gene, I just did the same thing. Bought the kit off ebay that had the wire and a couple of connectors, bought a cheap, lined golf jacket at a discount store; threaded the wires through the jacktet, down the sleeves and on the collar.
Really pleased with the result. Nice warmth diffused throughout. So far, I found the need for a controller a lot less than some of my other accessories (chaps, boot insoles) and so far on/off cycles are not frequent.
Having the heated sleeve/collar turned out to be more pleasant than I would have thought and would now consider a requirement.
Total cost; $45cdn for kit, $14 for jacket, $5 for switch

Magnetize your innards
Won't this DC current wrapped around your body turn the iron in your blood into a magnet? I have used electrics for years, wouldn't be without. Where I work we sell one of the major brands and their heat controller just pulses the current at a slow rate for low and a faster and faster rate till high is on all the time. When I ride I turn the stuff on when it is cold and turn it off when it gets warm. One time I wired up some electric socks, you know the kind that run on a couple of D cells. I used a light bulb to drop the voltage and ran them off my bike's battery. Everything worked fine till the bulb got shorted across and I had 12 volts going to my electric socks meant for 3 volts. Did I mention I was wearing buckle up motocross boots? I ended up with the bottom of my toes branded by this little red hot wire.

The wire is .020" OD. I plan on taking 30' of wire, working out a budget for front, arms, and back, and weaving the appropriate length thru each section. Once the wire is woven into the liner, the jacket will be turned inside out and sewn inside a light pile jacket.
My wife is making sure that my life insurance is paid up.
It's a pretty simple exercise in math. The wire has a fixed resistance per foot. Power = V^2/R. V=12. R is taylored to give the proper power. I'm shooting for 30-40 W for the entire jacket. The less wire, the higher the power. I'll probably want about 30-35' of wire.

Hey, Fred,
I suffer from "frozen toe"(old injuries) so was really interested in your insoles.
How many feet of wire did you use on the insoles, and how hot do they get? I assumed from your comments they were a bit warm. Have you tried to wire in series yet? Direct switch or modulator?
Some of this is still a bit confusing to me. Does more wire add heat or reduce heat?
I've done some experimenting on warming my frozen toe. I run around barefoot till my toe aches then warm it up with a heating pad.
High heat feels good but makes my feet swell.
Standing on the pad will warm the feet, but takes a long time for the great toe to recover.
The pad on top of the foot is good at keeping the foot warm and needs less heat.
I'm considering makeing a tongue to fit on top of my foot. My boot has a lot of room.
I could just make an oversock, but I would feel the wires, besides I can't find one big enough. I would need a thin sock size 15-16.
Hold on now, the wheels are turning as I type this. Split a dress sock and stitch it to an inner sole. I may be able to gain a bit in size and have a padded bottom, hmmmm. Wires on the outside of the sole and on the inside of the sock. Now I can change socks as necessary and not have to constantly wash the electrics. I hate dirty socks.
any constructive comments are welcome

A longer wire has more resistance, so it will draw less current, and heat to a lower temperature, but the heat will be applied over a larger area since the wire is longer.
It is a balancing act to getting the wire length right. You need it to get hot enough to provide heat, but no so hot to burn, and you really want to minimize current draw to no more than what you absolutly need so you don't make the electrical system work too hard. You also have to keep in mind how you want the heat spread out, since more wire will be needed to get the heat spread over a larger area.
To sum it up, a longer wire has more resistance, so it will draw less current, provide less watts, and heat to a lower overall temperature accross the length of the wire. A shorter wire will have less resistance, and will draw more current, provide more watts of heat, and get to a higher temperature.
Also, keep in mind, that the closer the wire is the skin, the less heat you will need, so you can reduce the wattage needed, and increase the effectivness by keeping it closer to the skin. However, if you put the wire right against the skin, you will probably end up with one spot that feels real hot, and another that is cold. So again, it is a balancing act. You need a thin layer of material between you and the wire. Not so thin that the wire will burn, but not so thick that it slows the heat transfer.
I don't know if this will work out on the underside of the insole or not as it has to heat up the insole and gel before the heat transfers, but it does make for a nice uniform distribution of the heat once it gets warm. I will have to do some more experimenting before I decide on the final design. I may have to move the wire to the top side of the insole, even though I would rather have it on the bottom.
Your suggestion about cutting off the top portion of a sock and attaching it to the front of the insole to provide heat for the top of the foot sounds like a good idea, and I may try that.
I initially used 10ft of wire, but I don't think that is enough, even with two wired in series. I will increase it to 15ft per insole and see if that reduces the current draw enough. This will mean with two insoles in series, the whole circuit will consist of 30ft of wire. I will test this out and let you know how it goes.

Thanks Fred, I think I finally got it. Long wire...spreads the heat out, short wire...arc welder. Looks like I need to order up some wire.
what is the best way to connect these tiny little wires? Will they solder? I don't want to let the smoke out.

A couple of weeks ago somebody smart posted here about a $40 down-filled jacket from Target that he wears over his heated liner, and under his jacket.
I bought one of these on sale for $35 at Target, and finally had a chance to try it today, cruising at 80mph in ~40 degree damp weather, with my Gerbings jacket liner underneath and HeatTroller set on low/medium. WARM AS TOAST! This is as comfy as I've ever been in winter riding conditions and was money well spent. I usually have hot spots with the Gerbings, as I usually have to crank the heat up. With the goose down insulation, however, the HeatTroller is on lower setting and makes no hot spots. The down holds the heat in and distributes it nicely.
Therefore, for those who are considering making their own electrically heated gear, you may want to seriously consider this Target jacket as a fine candidate into which to install your hot wires. This thing packs pretty compactly, and does not look bad, either. Has a high color to keep the neck warm, drawstring waist, and velcro tabs at the cuffs. Available in several two-tone colors, including blue/navy and charcoal/black. Check it out.

Rated 5 out of 5�by McClutch Simple pine tar It's pine tar. Works just as great as any other pine tar. the people complaining just don't know how to use pine tar. As a high school varsity player, I see a lot of playing time, and this is simple to carry, and perfect for the job it is intended to do. January 20, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5�by bobohammer AMAZING Grip! As a hammer thrower this has given me much better grip on holding the hammer all the way through my throw. Great product! April 23, 2014
Rated 4 out of 5�by Aropek13 Good Never really used any tar of anything on a wood bat before this but the grip from it is solid and it's really easy to apply to the bat. July 8, 2014
Rated 1 out of 5�by North Stars Dad Not Sticky! Bought this product for a fall wood bat league. At 75F outside, pine tar comes off stick in globs and doesn't provide enough tackiness to prevent hands from slipping off the bat. September 14, 2012
Rated 5 out of 5�by Tony26 Awesome pine for NCAA baseball player Awesawesome price great pine tar. Tacky forever only con is that it doesn't stay attached to aluminum bats very long. Use with tape. April 21, 2015
Rated 3 out of 5�by CaseyAtTheBat Pine Tar I only use wood bats and always without gloves, so it's nice to have something to add a little grip. For initial application this product is not as good as a pine tar rag. This product is great for spot applications or touch-ups when time is short. April 7, 2015
Rated 3 out of 5�by Derian Meh Bought it a little while back expecting good things, not as sticky as I thought. I use a rosin bag to add to the tackiness but still not really enough. Also messy in equipment bags and smells like pine sol, but it is pine tar so, heheh. I guess it is better than nothing, but not by much. December 30, 2014
Rated 3 out of 5�by Crazed sticky stuff Works well. I bit thinner than what I had been using. It works better applying a little to batting gloves and rubbinghands together. July 8, 2014
Rated 4 out of 5�by FrancoB Good pine tar Good pine tar, would be nice if it was bigger. Works well though June 3, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5�by johnnybaseball24 This product has been outstanding I purchased this product when I purchased my first wooden bat. The pine tar stick has been great on my bat and improved my batting grip. May 20, 2014

text: Hatteras 60 GT Sportfish Good Genetics, Sound Synthetics & Sweet Aesthetics Review by Loren Schweizer / Detail shots by Tom Serio The new Hatteras 60GT, as viewed from all angles, is simply gorgeous. Its unbroken shear line rises progressively to a bow that rivals Hatt's larger sportfish boats; a whopping seven feet, eight inches! Replete with its Carolina-ish flare and a traditional tumblehome transom, this eye-catching, finely balanced sportfish evokes the notion... "These guys got it right!" Jack Hargrave would be proud. This is art! The whole effect is at once traditional. Strakes gracefully rising up forward from the waterline as they converge at the bow while the knuckle running parallel to the waterline adds a sleek touch. No bow rails to mar that graceful bow, nor pulpit or windlass (these are options), just a teak toerail and a teak trim piece running around the flybridge in place of a feature stripe. Understated and clean; as it should be. If you've come this far, Dear Reader, you deserve to know that the answer to the "is beauty-only-skin-deep?" and "are-all-the-guts-there?" question. It's a resounding YES. In Spades. While this hull configuration dates back to 2007, the GT model existed as a group of options. The 2010 60 GT is now a dedicated model - no need to tick off any options boxes - and will soon be joined by 54 & 63 versions. Also particular to the GT are the engines, gears & props (ZF 2.42:1 reduction), mahogany interior, and the layout. Prior to nailing the final design, the Hatteras folks made an interior mock-up and received a lot of input for maximizing 'flow' and ergonomics from owners.

Recent Advances
Scientists at the Gladstone Institute of Cardiovascular Disease (GICD)have identified for the first time key genetic factors that drive the process of generating new heart cells. The discovery, reported in the current issue of the journalNature, provides important new directions on how stem cells may be used to repair damaged hearts.
Shinya Yamanaka, MD, PhD, of the Gladstone Institutes and Kyoto University is one of seven recipients of Canada's prestigious Gairdner Award. The Gairdner is referred to as the "Baby Nobel," since many winners then go on to win the Nobel Prize.
Scientists at the Gladstone Institutes of Cardiovascular Disease (GICD) have found that a key enzyme involved in absorbing fat may also be a key to reducing it. The enzyme, acyl CoA: monoacylglycerol acyltransferase 2 or Mgat2 is found in the intestines and plays an important part in the uptake of dietary fat by catalyzing a critical step in making triglyceride, a kind of fat. Triglyceride accounts for nearly one-third of the fat eaten by people in developed countries.
Researchers at the Gladstone Institute of Cardiovascular Disease (GICD) and the University of California, San Francisco have unraveled a complex signaling process that reveals how different types of cells interact to create a heart. It has long been known that heart muscle cells (cardiomyocytes) actively divide and expand in the embryo, but after birth this proliferative capacity is permanently lost. How this transition occurs has not been known. In the current issue of the journal Developmental Cell, the scientists show that the secret to this switch lies in the cells that surround the muscle cells, known as fibroblasts, which send signals that tell cardiomyocytes to divide or get bigger in size. Manipulation of these signals may be able to induce cardiomyocytes to divide again for regenerative purposes after heart attacks.
Scientists at the Gladstone Institutes of Cardiovascular Disease (GICD) have found that an enzyme associated with the synthesis of fat in the body is also an element in healthy skin and hair.

This is a utility application based upon provisional application Ser. No. 60/161,550 filed Oct. 26, 1999 which is incorporated herewith by reference and for which priority is claimed.
This invention relates to a wheeled computer case, and, more particularly, to a computer case which includes structural components that enable the case to have a generally fixed, rigid parallelpiped shape though comprised of sewn fabric material.
Luggage carrying cases and the like which include a telescoping handle and wheels are increasingly popular. Preferably, such cases have a parallelpiped shape with a framework or other means to maintain the case in a parallelpiped configuration. One difficulty with such constructions is the cost associated with manufacture and assembly. That is, a rigid assembly that maintains a desired configuration or shape tends to be more costly and more difficult to assemble than a sewn material case or container. An objective of the present invention is to provide a case or luggage item which is capable of including a telescoping handle and wheels and which may also be made from sewn material, but which is constructed in such a manner that its structural shape and integrity is maintained.
Briefly, the present invention comprises a packing case or luggage item having a rectangular, parallelpiped shape with a fabric sleeve defining a connected lateral side and bottom side of the case, the fabric sleeve including a rigid, L-shaped form board which is inserted into the sleeve or pocket defining the connected lateral side and bottom side. The board is cooperative with wheel wells and other elements to insure a rigid structure comprising a parallelpiped case which includes a telescoping handle and wheels.
Thus, it is an object of the invention to provide an improved wheeled case construction.
It is a further object of the invention to provide an improved wheeled case construction which is comprised of fabric and which further includes a reinforcing board integrated into a pocket defined in two sides of the case.
Another object of the invention is to provide an improved personal computer case which includes a telescoping handle and wheels to facilitate ease of transport.
Another object of the invention is to provide an inexpensive, easily manufactured, rugged and highly useful carrying case for personal computers, files and the like.
These and other objects, advantages and features of the invention will be set forth in the detailed description which follows.
In the detailed description which follows, reference will be made to the drawing comprised of the following figures:
FIG. 1 is an isometric view of the case as viewed from the top side;
FIG. 2 is an isometric view of the case as viewed from the under side;
FIG. 3 is an exploded, cross sectional view of the case;
FIG. 4 is a plan view of the rigid board which is inserted into the fabric sleeve of the case;
FIG. 5 is an exploded isometric view of the rigid board and foot of the case; and
FIG. 6 is an isometric view of the case as viewed from the top side with the compartments open.
The case of the invention has a parallelpiped configuration as shown in the figures, especially FIGS. 1 and 2. The case is generally formed of sewn fabric material such as canvas, nylon or similar fabrics which are stitched to form the parallelpiped sides, zippered connections, etc of the case. The case thus includes a top side 10, a first end side 12, a second end side 14, a bottom side 16, a first lateral side 18 and a second lateral side 21. The sides 10, 12, 14, 16, 18, 21 are combined to form a generally parallelpiped case as depicted.
The first lateral side 18 and the bottom 16 have a special construction. That is, as depicted in the exploded cross sectional view of FIG. 3, the first lateral side 18 is comprised of a fabric pocket or sleeve 20 which has an open horizontal zippered slit or passage 22. Passage 22 may be on the inside or outside of the case. The sleeve 20 thus forms an enclosed pocket into which a rigid or generally rigid board 24 is inserted. The board 24 may be a polyethylene material board, for example, having a thickness of 5 mm, for example. The board 24 has a plan view configuration as depicted in FIG. 4. That is, the board 24 is generally rectangular with a tapered end 26 that forms part of the bottom side of the case as described below. Passages 28 and 30 are cut through the board 24 to receive a housing well for wheels. Referring again to FIG. 3, the board 24 is inserted into the sleeve 20 and retained therein by a zipper 32 during assembly. The board 24 is thus encapsulated within the sleeve 20.
A first wheel housing 34 and the second wheel housing 36 are attached to the sleeve 20 and board 24 by a means of fasteners or rivets which pass through the board 24 and engage the wheel housings 34, 36. Each wheel housing, e.g., housing, 36 has a first or vertical run 38 and a lower or horizontal run 40 defining an L-shape cross section and importing an L-shape cross section to the board 24. The wheel housing 36 when attached to board 24 thus helps shape and form the pocket 20 and board 24 into an L cross sectional shape, such as depicted in FIG. 3. A wheel 42 may thus be retained within each wheel pocket of the wheel housing 36.
A formed foot 44 is attached to the horizontal run of the board 24 and sleeve 20 by means of a retaining board 46 with rivets or fasteners 48. Attached to the inside of the board 24 and sleeve 20 is a telescoping handle assembly 50. The handle assembly 50 cooperates with the wheel housings 34, 36 and is fastened to the board 24 by means of fasteners, for example, fasteners 52. A telescoping handle 54, fits into hollow channels 51 of the housing assembly 50. The handle assembly 50 further includes lower brackets 53 which help shape board 24.
A forming bracket or outer handle housing 56 has an L shaped cross section with a vertical run 58 and a horizontal run 60. The bracket 56 cooperates with and is attached to the board 24 again by means of rivets or other fasteners. The outer handle housing 56 may also be riveted or attached to the lower end of the handle assembly 50. The bracket 56 further facilitates the retention of the shape of the fabric pocket 20 and the board 24 in the desired cross sectional configuration as depicted in FIG. 3.
The balance of the case is formed from flexible fabric material as described above and is sewn or attached to the sleeve 20. Thus, the case includes a front side or flap 21 retained by a zipper 22 which fastens the flap 21 to a front compartment 31. A center compartment 23 is, in turn, attached to the front compartment 31. Zipper 25 attaches the middle compartment 23 to an inside compartment 27. In practice, the inside compartment 27 may be designed to hold papers and folders and the like. The middle compartment 23 which has an access zipper 29 is adapted to define a pocket for receipt of a personal computer, for example. Forward or front compartment 31, which is defined by the space between the middle compartment 23, and the front flap 21 is also designed for holding papers and other materials. In this manner, a personal computer will be protected or retained within the internal, middle compartment 23 between compartments 27 and 31. The bottom side of the case having the rigid board 24 provided therein provides for further protection of the contents of the middle compartment 23. Fabric handles, such as handle 33, are also provided to permit ease of transport of the case.
The described construction thus provides that the entire case may be manufactured from rather flexible fabric material, but further provides that one lateral side and the bottom are reinforced by a rigid board which is shaped by brackets and wheel housings so as to maintain its L shaped cross section. This provides a means for making the case generally rigid and to facilitate maintaining the shape of the case. However, the case may be easily assembled using the described construction utilizing sewing techniques to sew all the component parts together.

YourNews: Bluffton Church in Cosby will hold tent revival
By the Rev. Terry Prong
Bluffton Church has been blessed with a tent ministry that has been holding revivals for the past two years. These revivals emphasize a unity of prayer against addictions in the area. We have had people healed and restored at these events. We will hold the Cosby Revival 3-10 p.m. July 11-4 at the Cocke County Fairgrounds, 112 Fairgrounds Circle in Newport. There will be many singers and preachers, testimonials and hands-on healing.
With the seemingly never-ending increase in addictions across the nation, we have to come together in some way to put up a fight against this. There is not a one person in this area who has not been touched by an addiction. Either in their lives or a family or friends life. I have also seen an increase in the desire to unify churches through prayer against addictions. Just recently, in Newport there was a unity prayer march that drew 1,500 prayer warriors to a march down town.
We are always looking for those who have given up on traditional treatments, and families who think there is no hope for their loved ones. Things change through prayer, people change through prayer. Be a part of the solution by participating in prayer where ever and when ever you can.
We have all set our phone alarms for 3 p.m. everyday and take a few minutes to pray against those forces that are destroying our youth, friends and family. By asking the media to spread this message of hope, we want to inspire everyone to join a unity of prayer against addiction in our nation.

Judge bars Disney from using Go.com logo

GoTo.com suing Disney's Go NetworkFebruary 18, 1999
Yesterday's order from the U.S. Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals in San Francisco reinstates an earlier temporary injunction that Disney had sought to overturn.
A trial date has not yet been set, but preliminary hearings in the case are scheduled for March, GoTo representatives said today.
"We feel vindicated," said GoTo attorney Pierce O'Donnell in Los Angeles. "It's a victory for us and particularly for our consumers, who are entitled not to be confused about which service they're using."
Disney executives could not immediately be reached for comment. But the familiar green stoplight logo it had been using since Go.com launched last year was replaced this morning on its Web site.
The stoplight logo, which had the word "Go" in white lettering emblazoned in a green stoplight on a yellow square background, looked too similar to GoTo's mark, which was established in 1997, Pierce said.
GoTo first noticed the logo for Disney's online directory during the company's beta release early last year.
GoTo sued Disney in February 1999 when talks between the companies broke down.
The complaint seeks tens of millions of dollars in damages plus a permanent court order barring Disney from using the Go.com mark.
The damage figure might rise because Disney was allowed to continue using the stoplight logo for two months pending the appeals court ruling, O'Donnell said.
The court yesterday found that GoTo "demonstrated that it is likely to succeed on the merits of its claim," and that Disney's Go.com design mark "has caused, and is likely to continue causing, confusion among consumers," Chief Justice Terry J. Hatter Jr. wrote in the order.
The judge also noted that it was risky for Disney to continue with its logo design knowing that GoTo had already hit the Web two years prior.
At a November court hearing in Los Angeles, a Disney attorney told the judge that complying with the injunction could cost the company about $40 million.
Yesterday's court order came on the same day Disney announced it was changing its Web strategy to play up its strength as an entertainment destination.
Meanwhile, GoTo, based in Pasedena, Calif., has seen its search service blossom, according to analyst reports. Nonetheless, the company's stock dropped $3.25 this morning to $70.63 a share.

Former Irish Prime Minister Bertie Ahern, who worked closely on the negotiations leading to the Good Friday agreement in Northern Ireland, said Kennedy "lived to see two great chasms bridged, between Catholic and Protestant in Northern Ireland and between black and white in his own United States."
"These achievements, which were the dreams imagined by his brothers in his youth, were the legacy of a long life and of a good and great man who, no matter how often he stumbled or the cause stalled, continued with a tenacity and a great belief that was the hallmark of everything he did and of the man he was," Ahern said in statement.
Irish President Mary McAleese said Kennedy would be remembered "as a hugely important friend to this country during the very difficult times."
McAleese hailed Kennedy for making an "outstanding and remarkable personal contribution" to Ireland, "despite the sacrifice and sorrow that was part of the overall contribution of the entire Kennedy family," adding that his death would be "greeted with a great sense of sadness here."
These sentiments were echoed by Irish Foreign Affairs Minister Micheal Martin, who said Kennedy was "the embodiment of the Irish immigrant story," and that Ireland owed him "a particular debt of gratitude ? for always being a true and loyal friend and steadfast supporter."
"He was, to the very end, a true profile in courage," Martin said.

Iowa does have a surpus of deer, large deer at that. In the cities they can become very dangerous to drivers. They're not so bad in rural areas. I agree with more hunting of deer in and around urban areas. However I would never agree with poaching anything.
I was involved in a poaching incident once in high school. We were out "road tripping" as we called it one night and everytime we saw eyes in the ditch the driver pulled over and the passenger got out and shot at it. I had no idea there was even a gun in the car until it was being used. My friend ended up shooting a mink and even shot at some farmers cows. He was using a shotgun and it was at a distance so it didnt even phase them but still very dumb. We ended up getting pulled over by the cops around four that morning driving through town (I know we were idiots). They pulled the mink out of the trunk and the three of us that didnt shoot it all pointed our fingers at the other guy. He got his fur bearers license taken away for a few years but still continues to hunt without ethics to this day. Didnt learn a thing. I love the guy. He's one of my best friends but I hate the way he hunts and I dont do it with him.
I think the punishment for the alleged poaching, if true, in this case needs to fit the crime from the universities standpoint. If he took other wrestlers, that he coaches, out with him to commit the crime of poaching, he should be fired...imho. I love Mike Zadick but there is no excuse if this did indeed happen.
