Waid Assembles Big Stories for "All-New All-Different Avengers"
Comic Books
Passings | Bermuda-based cartoonist Peter Woolcock died Wednesday after being struck by a car as he was walking to the office of The Royal Gazette to deliver his weekly cartoon. He was 88. Born and raised on a farm in Argentina, Woolcock served on a British tank crew in World War II (during which time he also kept a sketchbook) and worked as a cartoonist and illustrator for almost 60 years, first for children's magazines in the United Kingdom and then, after moving in 1981 to Bermuda, as an editorial cartoonist. Both his editors and the politicians he depicted have kind things to say in this lengthy obituary, which notes that his final cartoon was about San Diego losing the bid to host the America's Cup. [The Royal Gazette]
Creators | Candorville cartoonist Darrin Bell talks about the political cartoons he drew in response to the non-indictments of the police officers in the Michael Brown and Eric Garner cases, as well as his own experiences as a black man who got "the talk" when he was 6 or 7 years old and will some day have to give it to his own son. [Comic Riffs]
Legal | Attorney Evan Stassberg finds two significant problems with Comic-Con International's trademark-infringement claim against Salt Lake Comic Con over the use of the term "Comic Con": There are a lot of shows called "comic con," so it could be argued it's a descriptive term that's not specific to the San Diego event, and precisely because there are so many events that use that term, it could be argued that Comic-Con International organizers haven't been policing their trademark. Strassberg adds, "The Salt Lake organizers' steadfast defiance and ongoing gravitas has turned a simple trademark dispute into a national news story with mountains of free publicity for the Salt Lake event. If this was intentional, it is an astonishing display of marketing genius. If this was mere happenstance, it is the comic book convention equivalent of the accidental invention of Post-It notes." [Deseret News]

EU Lawmakers to Resume Basel Bank Talks Amid Call for Delay
Aug. 24 (Bloomberg) -- European Union lawmakers and government officials will resume talks on Sept. 5 over how to apply Basel bank capital rules amid calls from lenders to delay implementing the measures, said Sharon Bowles, chairwoman of the European Parliament's economic and monetary affairs committee.
Cyprus, which holds the rotating presidency of the EU, and members of the EU assembly are seeking a deal on the draft law ahead of an international deadline of January 2013.
Banks have urged a delay in applying the rules, saying the ongoing talks mean that they will have insufficient time to adapt their systems and internal procedures.
"We're obviously going to have to have discussion about it," Bowles said in an interview. "I'm not unsympathetic, I recognize the practicalities."
Negotiators will begin a series of meetings on the legislation on Sept. 5, Bowles said.
The Basel Committee on Banking Supervision, which brings together regulators from 27 nations including the U.S., U.K. and China, agreed in 2010 that the measures should be phased starting Jan. 1 2013, with full implementation from 2019.

The God of War Series: Best Moments Video Feature
Giancarlo takes us through the best moments of God of War and God of War II!
by Takeshi Hiraoka on
Did you enjoy this video?Sign In to Upvote
The battle with the Hydra is jawdropping to this day. Back in 2005, it was possibly the greatest heart-pumping experience you could get on a PS2.
woOW i love this game
And I admit!
cmon peaple god of war is the best admit it
I think meeting Chronos in GOW 1 has to be considered too
Nice moments :P
I played the game for only 2 hours.The game is great...AWSM...CRAZY...xDDDDDDDDDDDD
[This message was deleted at the request of the original poster]
To be fair, with the Hydra in GOWI and the Colossus in GOWII, this series doesn't do first boss battles by half. And the boss battles with Theseus and Icarus in GOWII are classic too, especially with the 'slamming Thesues' head in the door episode'. xD
I love the boss fight with the Krakan, only because the way it dies at the end of the battle. That was a definite OH SNAP moment! :-D
Good memories...
Wasnt that huge guy from the bank of nicolai advert the main evil henchman in Indiana Jones 4?
i like god of war but its full with blood
I'm .... so .... freakin' ... STOKED!!!
este si es un guerrero esparta... I AM A GOD OF GODS jajajajajaja
Kratos brutally kills people and bangs chicks. What else can you ask for it?
How'd they forget killing the Sisters of Fate? Including that hideous creature Clotho?
Only 2 more weeks
@shani_boy101 Throughout that whole video I was waiting for them to say the ending to GOW 2, just to make sure I shouldn't write it in a comment/ and they also didn't mention anything about the sisters of fates temples, or the underworld. but I think they didn't want to spoil anything for those who have stupidly never played either.
You can't be serious... who picked out these?? There were way better moments in the God of War series than most of these. You could've picked: -The very start of the entire series where Kratos jumps of a cliff - Pandora's Temple - Kratos beating the $^*@!(! out of Zeus - The CGI ending of the second game.
Maybe have some kind of warning before the full frontal nudity?
This game of course won't release in PC, because of piracy.
Hope God of War 3 has high replay value it gameplay more than 20 hours..
@chaoticchild555 ... I know dude its not based on GoW, I was talking about the characters whom been shared between GoW and Clash of The Titans, that's all :) However, thanks for your comment
It reminds me so much funny great things when I played the first two parts so I'm waiting to play God of War III
"Sparked a debate on sexuality in videogames" ROFL
No Actually the new clash of titans is just a messed up weird movie kind about god of war. medusa a warrior facing zeus the winged horse. watch the trailer.
I read that God Of War 3 is about 15 hours long. Best series ever
Danish Reaper want GOW3 bad...
@The-Boss-505 Clash of the Titans is a remake from the 70's... it has absolutely nothing to GoW except for the voice acting. Also, it's Medusa... watch the original movie.
dudes my god of war 3 demo is Black and white .....what's the problem w
One of the best, if not the best, game series ever. God Of War III is going to be the game of the year for 2010, without a doubt.
@dah_master ... There is a movie called Clash of The Titans will be released this March, unfortunately its not based on the actual game, but if you watch the trailer on YouTube you will see Zeus but this time he appears with red hair not white like the original game, also, you will see Euryale or Medusa ( I'm not sure :( ) but it looks like one of them. Anyway, this movie will be EPIC for sure. God of War III + Clash of The Titans = CAN'T WAIT !!! :D
ah the good times
i loved the moment in God of War 2 where you had to jump from pillar to pillar as they were falling. That was some great quick time event pressing.
they missed the end of GOW2, that was freaking epic
This should also be a movie :)
Why this game not release in PC. I want this game.
@liam72 people like GOW for the story as well, the battles are awesome and its a big part of why many people like it, but im sure people want to see how the story ends and what happens to Kratos and the gods and titans. But your entitled to your opinion.
I second the previous statement. No Chains of Olympus?
I have to say I was disapointed when I played GOW, but I guess I just don't like Hack & Slash, I'm more of a storytelling videogames fan. I still understand why people like GOW, the battle scripts are pretty cool.
good old times...im glad with this,good presentation.i presume the 3rd and final episode with just be a "block buster" in its genre?
Just makes want to play those games again.
good times
i saw boobies :)

The mission of the Northern Jaguar Project (NJP) is to preserve and recover the world's northernmost population of the jaguar, its unique natural habitats, and native wildlife under its protection as a flagship, keystone, and umbrella species.
NJP and our Mexican conservation partner Naturalia have established the 50,000-acre Northern Jaguar Reserve, which encompasses prime jaguar habitat just 125 miles south of the Arizona border in Sonora, Mexico. Jaguars that roam this area now have a safe-haven sanctuary in the most remarkable, rugged wilderness left in northern Mexico.

Reviews for NORTHERN JAGUAR PROJECT
Northern Jaguar Project is one of the most progressive and effective nonprofits I've had the opportunity to work with over the past 20 years. Although I have been reading about their work for many years, it wasn't until I visited the jaguar reserve in Sonora, Mexico last winter that I was able to better understand what a profound impact this organization has on the land, its animals and people.
NJP helped teach me the true meaning of the word "wild." I have been to wilderness areas on almost every continent, but the mountains, canyons and river on the reserve redefined my understanding of wilderness. If there has ever been an advocate and hero for the jaguar and its environs, it's NJP.
During my senior year of high school, I had the option of interning with NJP. Although another internship became my choice, the ethics and mission of NJP stood tall in my mind for years. Recently I contacted NJP, hoping I can volunteer and be a part of their amazing mission to preserve the North American Jaguar population, and the eco systems inhabited by them. The work done by them is nothing short a bad ass, from working with Mexican locals who reside near or around the preserve to be a part of the solution, to awareness programs all over southern AZ, to installing cameras and tracking migrating Jaguars, and more. The work is immense and done by few, who seem to work endlessly for an amazing purpose. The opinions I have and the time i spend volunteering, exist only because I have seen the positive work, the sacrifices and energy spent to do the work, and the selflessness of those who do it. I believe in the cause, but i believe in NJP because of those who run it.
Northern Jaguar Project is a wonderful organization that is trying to preserve not only one of the worlds most beautiful animals but also one of North Americas truly last wild places. I have been impressed by the genuine and caring nature of the staff at NJP who have selflessly given themselves to defending the northern most breeding population of jaguars left in North America.
I am so proud to be working alongside such wonderful individuals who work tirelessly to advocate and educate the surrounding community for the sake of preserving one of mother natures most wonderful ecosystems.
I cannot thank NJP enough for their hard work and dedication and I am excited to see what the future holds for not only the organization but for the northern jaguar.
We first became aware f NJP about ten years ago and have followed their good work every since. They have done more with less than almost any non-profit I can think of and have become enormously effective advocates for jaguars. Besides directly providing sanctuary on the Northern Jaguar Reserve in Sonora, Mexico, they have enrolled and educated adjoining ranchers to live with jaguars, bobcats, pumas and ocelots through their Viviendo con Felines program. End result: everybody wins
The NJP is a wonderful example of big thinking combined with practical expertise. They're creating a network of committed people that spans an international boundary and connects different people from different backgrounds and experience to the goal of biodiversity and especially protecting an apex predator, the jaguar. Plus, their instagram posts are just plain fun.

Turtle Southern just visited the college where I am a librarian and member of the campus environmental committee. Prior to her visit, I had no idea this organization even existed. I had also assumed that jaguars were pretty much extinct north of Central America. Turtle gave a fantastic talk, with slides of the gorgeous terrain where the project is located. She is an excellent spokesperson, understated yet with an obvious love & dedication for the project and jaguars. We plan to have her or one of the their volunteers back on a yearly basis to have a table at our Earth Day gatherings, in order to share with our students the valuable work Northern Jaguar Project is doing and all that they have accomplished. Thank you for the opportunity to share this with you! Mark Floor

I found the Northern Jaguar Project's website several years ago and have especially enjoyed reading their updates from the field. I have checked back often to see new trail-camera images of the reserve's wildlife and to learn more about the Project's local outreach programs. Recently, I was given permission to film the "Northern Jaguars" Speaker Series in which NJP presented a very informative program on current jaguar issues. NJP has made images available and given other invaluable assistance for an upcoming documentary on the northern-most jaguars. Without their help and unique imagery, this documentary would not be possible. The willingness of the Northern Jaguar Project to work across the border and with many groups speaks to their dedication.

NJP is an impressive organization that makes the most of their resources. They are particularly effective working between two countries to positively affect critical species protection. The staff are committed, knowledgeable, humble and determined. The unique approaches they take are working! Congratulations and Keep Up the Good Work!!
Consider this---The only Jaguars left in North America are in Mexico! They are trapped there no one to help them to survive except Northern Jaguar project and a a few others who care including some wonderful ranchers and their families. They are not going to swim the Panama Canal. They cannot improve their gene pool--have mercy and help these people!

I am extremely impressed with the conservation work of NJP. The staff are dedicated and passionate as they work to preserve not only jaguars and ocelots, but this special wilderness area that provides habitat for a wide diversity of species, including macaws.
Also, NJP's public outreach efforts help to spread awareness, appreciation and support of these big cats and an understanding of the need to protect this northernmost breeding population of jaguars.

Everyone's got his or her Christmas or (insert your holiday of preference here) gift wish list, and us at Hollyscoop are no exception to that rule.
In honor of the holiday season, here are some celebrities we'd like to ring in the holidays and the New Year with.
Chris Brown: Along with being able to party like a rock star, the holidays with Breezy would offer one important incentive: meeting Rihanna. Just remember to bring your hockey mask for punch protection!
Barack and Michelle Obama: I mean, have you seen these two political lovebirds together? It's adorable. More importantly, thinking about Barack reading "A Night Before Christmas" over an open fire just warms my heart…
Justin Bieber: Because he's friggin' Justin Bieber. #swaggy
Justin Bieber's Dancers: Because they're awesome to travel with.
Lindsay Lohan: With a probation violation hearing scheduled for next month and whispers of impending jail time, this might be our last chance to see her before she heads back to the clink for an indefinite amount of time.
Suri Cruise: Nothing says "The Holidays" like the fiery eyes of a child juiced up on the idea of presents to come. Which is why Suri Cruise might be fun to hang out with this Chirstmas. She's cool and sassy, or as one HS staffer put it: a "diva."
Charlie Sheen: "He'd make your crazy relatives seem normal," one staffer noted. No argument there…
George Clooney: We'd be warm hanging with the Silver Fox at his Lake Como pad in the Mediterranean climate. Also, you got to imagine that the Academy Award winner has got some top quality scotch on tap.
Oprah: As long as we're dreaming big, we might as well go for the biggest option out there: Oprah. She probably give you a sweet gift too—You know, like a small country.
David Beckham: "…'cause he's good eye candy," one HS office member noted (who may or may not be one of our founders…), adding, "Victoria can come too, so I can get fashion advice from her."
Niall Horan: Our in-house boy band enthusiast couldn't help but daydream about what it would be like to spend the holidays with likes of One Direction. Though, she had some reserves…
"I'm not about to break up Haylor ... so Niall he is my second fav anyway," she noted.

Customer Reviews of Antec True Power Quattro 850W Power Supply
just right10/6/2008
Power supplies are boring, and that's good. If a power supply is doing everything right then they can be happily ignored. This one does it all well. It came with all the latest hookups that are needed, for last the half of 2008 at least. Oh and I have extra items that it has to power, so A+. It does make me wonder why anyone would need more than 850 watts. Perhaps if you have two top-end graphics cards and too many hard drives?
So far so good.4/6/2008
This power supply was easily able to handle to overclocked 8800GTS 640mb video cards. That, and Buy.com's low price at the time I purchased, leaves me quite satisfied. My only con is that it is only semi-modular, the native cables including the motherboard 24 pin connector are not modular. If you are running SLi or a video card that takes 2 PCI 6 pin connectors, make sure to use one native 6 pin connector and one modular 6 pin connector. The folks at Antec told me this distributes power more evenly.
Lovely PSU3/2/2008
Enough power for 5 Antec 3 speed fans, Evga 8800GT, 500GB & 80GB HD, 2 Optical Drives MSI K9N SLI Mobo with a AMD Athlon X2 5400@ 2.8GHz and Zalman CPU cooler. All connection are in alignment perfect to connect everything and hide the wires. All this is in an Antec 900 case and it looks clean with evything tucked away neatly.1 Helpful | 0 Not Helpful

Originally written on Washington Post | Last updated 12/1/11
Rashard Lewis's agent, Tony Dutt, confirmed to Yahoo! Sports on Wednesday that the Wizards would not use the amnesty clause to waive his client. The new collective bargaining agreement will contain a provision that allows teams to cut a player and have the entire salary removed from the cap. Lewis would appear to be a prime candidate to be released since he is two years removed from his last all-star appearance, averaged just 11.4 points in 32 games with the Wizards and is slated to earn about $46 million over the next two seasons – though his salary this season will be reduced by $4.3 million because of the 66-game season.

Pellizotti cleared of manipulating biological passport values + Vino cash woe for UCI
Rider's exoneration follows news that UCI had no grounds to fine Vinokourov
Previous News
Next News
Liquigas-Doimo rider Franco Pellizotti has been exonerated of manipulating his biological passport by the Tribunale Nazionale Antidoping (TNA), the national anti-doping tribunal CONI, the Italian Olympic committee.
Pellizotti, third in the 2009 Giro d'Italia – he was subsequently elevated to second after Danilo di Luca failed a drugs test – was suspended days before this year's race, for which he was one of the favourites for the overall title.
That suspension was imposed after the UCI announced it had discovered irregularities in three separate tests conducted during that year, one of which took place in Monaco ahead of the start of the 2009 Tour de France, in which Pellizotti won the mountains classification.
The 32-year-old's absence from this year's Giro saw Vincenzo Nibali called up as a late replacement, and the Sicilian would go on to finish third behind team mate Ivan Basso before confirming his rise with the overall victory in last month's Vuelta a Espana.
Pellizotti, however, has expressed his frustration at having wasted a season and says he intends to seek redress from the UCI. "I'm very satisfied and it couldn't be any other way after this absolution at the TNA. Certainly, I've missed a season and now I'm going to seek damages from the UCI," he told the Gazzetta dello Sport.
Prosecutors at CONI had been seeking a two-year ban for Pellizotti, but yesterday's ruling, based on the fact that "insufficient elements existsed to prove manipulation" leaves the cyclist, who hails from Udine in north-east Italy, free to race again.
The UCI, for its part, is understood to be awaiting documents of the case from Italy ahead of making a decision as to whether to appeal the TNA's verdict to the Court of Arbitration for Sport (CAS).
Meanwhile, the organisation that represents Italy's pro cyclists, the Associazione Corridori Ciclisti Professionisti Italiani (ACCPI) has given Pellizotti its backing and said that "the biological passport cannot be used as a punitive instrument."
In a statement on its website, the body said "the 'Pellizotti Case' is the umpteenth confirmation of what the ACCPI has always maintained: the biological passport is an adequate weapon in the fight against doping if it is used as an instrument of enquiry, in an inductive way, but absolutely cannot be used as a coercive instrument, as the only proof to suspend an athlete."
The ACCPI added that after learning of Pellizotti's exoneration its President Amedeo Colombo said: "I'm happy for the good news Franco received today, but truly disappointed because no-one can give hiume back the season he's lost. I hope at least that this episode will serve as a lesson to the authorities to adopt clearer, transparent regulations to safeguard athletes and the image of cycling."
News that Pellizotti plans to take the UCI to court to seek compensation for his lost season are unlikely to be welcomed by the sport's governing body in the wake of reports that the UCI has lost a case at the CAS over a fine imposed on Alexander Vinoukourov following the Kazakh cyclist's positive test for a blood transfusion during the 2007 Tour de France.
In common with other riders participating in the race, the Astana rider had signed a contract requiring that any cyclist receiving a two-year ban for doping offences would be fined a year's salary, with the money going towards the UCI's anti-doping programme.
However, according to Spanish press reports, the CAS has ruled that the UCI did not have legal grounds for enforcing such a requirement, describing it as a PR initiative aimed at restoring cycling's credibility, and said that the €1.2 million fine imposed on the rider was invalid.
The UCI has also come under renewed criticism this week for continued delays in reaching a decision about Alberto Contador's fate following his failed test for clenbuterol during this year's Tour de France. The Spaniard was absent from Tuesday's launch of the 2011 route.

WALLA WALLA -- Members of Walla Walla High School's Future Business Leaders of America chapter had strong showings at a recent regional competition.
The Southeast Region Winter Leadership Conference was held at Bethel Church in Richland, and drew close to 200 competing students representing 12 schools. Eight Wa-Hi team members garnered 13 top-five finishes in their events, said FBLA advisor Scott Reardon.
Reardon said the enthusiasm and motivation to compete was not diminished this year, considering the local chapter of FBLA has lower than usual participation this year.
"It seemed like every time I turned around someone was nailing a top 3 finish in an event," Reardon said in a statement.
He said student Hannah Hampson had never done a public speaking event before, yet won the creed competition, becoming the first Blue Devil competitor to place in that event under his direction.
Hampson was joined by classmates Greg Heller, Lea Davidson, Brenda Lopez, Parker Postlewait, Travis Stinebaugh, Jocelyn Vargas and Ana Andrade in competition.
Notable first-place finishes for individual students included Hampson for creed, Postlewait for health care administration and Stinebaugh for computer problem solving.
Second-place awards went to Davidson for public speaking, Lopez for accounting I, Stinebaugh for business communications and personal finance, and Vargas for business communications and accounting II.
A third-place award went to Vargas for health care administration, and Postlewait also earned fourth place for business communications. Almost all of the students also took home team awards placing in the top five.
The FBLA members will next compete in the State Leadership Conference April 12-14 in Seattle.

A terrified woman sped off with a smashed windscreen after her car was hit by a milk bottle and a man approached her shouting.
Police were called to Strood last night after a woman reported she was a victim of a "targeted plot".
A Kent Police spokeswoman confirmed that just before 8pm the woman was travelling down Gravesend Road when an object - thought to be a milk bottle - was thrown from a vehicle travelling in the opposite direction.
It smashed her windscreen and the woman, driving a Fiat, was forced to pull over.
But as she did, a blacked-out car stopped behind her and a man got out and approached her car.
On a Facebook post shared multiple times, the woman - who has not been named - said: "A man then jumped out of his car and started to shout at me as if to get out.
"I then (somehow) locked my doors and sped off down the road."
It was reported the other vehicle then drove off in the opposite direction.
The woman described herself as being terrified and warned other woman to lock their car doors.
Police are investigating the report of criminal damage.

Amanda Pinckney, Chelse Stevens, Lindsay McClanahan, Lauren Ladd and Lisa Warren served as the planning committee for the gala.
Guests included Clay and Brook Anderson, Josh and Abby Copeland, Scott and Stephanie Daniel, Jamie and Peyton Drysdale, Jeff and Amy Dobbs, Lee and Erin Freeman, Glenn and Becky Galbraith, Danny and Marcella Greene, Zack and Ashley Holmes, Josh and Emily Hurst, Bijan and Lisa Khairollahi, David and Tiffany Ledford, Lance and Susie Vincent, Kathryn and Chris Vinson, Leslie and Scott Elmore, Dani Bernard and Caleb Warren, Michael and Tracey Belmont, Zach and Abigail Jumper, Katherine West, Cammy Kromer, Ryn Jeffreys and Levi Rowlett, and Katie and Brad Fitch.
n Kentucky native Jayne Sharp says she has hosted her 10th and final Derby party at her home in West Knoxville. A notable change for the last year of the event is that it was not a ladies only affair as it has been in the past. Joining the ladies in their elegant hats were gentlemen wearing linen and bow ties. As the 80 guests arrived, Wendell Werner played jazz. After official programs from Churchhill Downs arrived courtesy of Federal Express, the wagering began. Following the race, guests enjoyed a traditional Derby Day dinner which included beef tenderloin, potatoes, salads dotted with purple and lavender violets, and white chocolate bread pudding with bourbon sauce made by the hostess.
Fun additions to the day were a cigarette girl, who offered candy cigarettes, bubblegum cigars, cigarette holders and wax bottles of juices. Guests selected a "Winners' Circle" of the best hats. The décor featured cherub statuaries and moss covered baskets holding roses of deep purple, lavender, green and cream with trailing orchids amid boxwood. The arrangements topped white linens with a damask overlay. Heirloom monogrammed napkins and a collection of Derby glasses added to the tablescape. Life sized statues around the lawn from Samuel Franklin's held arrangements in similar colors. A balustrade complemented the design. The entrance to the "track" featured groups of tall poles capped with boxwood spheres and striped with green ribbon to match the green cushions on the terrace.
Attendees included Sharp's daughters and sons-in-law Brooke and Shane Black and Shelly and Rob Bearden. Joining them were Harry and Teresa Call, Steve and Jean Hill, Alice Anderson, Terry Lucas, Tom and Linda Bailey, Sam and Carole Ardison, Trish Killian, Connie Milam, Judy Reeves, Basil and Mary Ross Skelton, George and Cheryl Kershaw, Ron and Linda Rigsby, Tim and Betsy Priest, Mike and Julia Fleming, Russell Beaty and Chrissi Rhea, Gary and Jane Thomas, Wayne and Ann Mowery, Vivian Rymer, Alan and Andi Schwartz, Ronnie Carroll, Kenny and Sheila Boatman, Roger and Cheryl Goins, Duane and Nancy Dickens, Champ and Karen Beeler, Tim and Ernie Patterson, Scott and Beverly Adkisson, Hope Oody, Larry and Jennifer Johnson, Stacy and Mari Anderson, Steve and Kaye Maynard, Gary and Nancy Scott, Mary Christopherson, Julie and Blair Griffy, Aaron and Patty Daggy, and Phil Doetch. Candace Mangold traveled from Lexington, Ky. to attend. Guests from the Nashville area included Laura Bearden, Dan and Camille Gift, Til and Ann Bourland, David and Marion Greenlee, and Dan and Debbie Kingsbury.

The 5th annual Cans from Race Fans food drive hosted by Ric's Food Center, 705 S. Mission Street, is set for 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. Saturday, April 13, 2013. Rain or Shine.
The event will be collecting non-perishable food items for local charities and those in need. Bandit Industries will be doing a "Power Hour" from 12-1 where they will match donations. There will be several racecars on display and a chance to get photographs and autographs with drivers.
About The Cause – The origin of "Cans from Race Fans"
On March 21, 2009, Mt. Pleasant Speedway Late Model driver Alvie Haynes held the first "Cans from Race Fans" food drive at Ric's Food Center in Mt. Pleasant, Mich. to benefit two Isabella County charities, the Central Michigan Chapter of American Red Cross Food Pantry, and the Isabella Community Soup Kitchen.
A lifelong Mt. Pleasant resident, Haynes came up with the idea as a way to help those in need and to say "thank you" to all his sponsors, friends, and family that have supported him in his racing career. The idea was to see how many non-perishable food items the community could donate and fill up Haynes' racecar hauler. Seeing the great work their fellow racer was doing Haynes had several of his racing competitors show support by displaying their racecars at the food drive and holding a "Meet and Greet" with fans. There were also several giveaways and prizes for those making donations. The first food drive was very successful as Haynes filled his racecar hauler and raised $320 in monetary donations.
Fast forward to year two, and on April 3, 2010, the second annual "Cans from Race Fans" event took place with year two proving bigger and better. In year two, Haynes held the benefit for the local Red Cross and The Salvation Army. Once again held at Ric's Food Center, the event brought in 1,757 food items and 121 baby pantry items donated for the Red Cross and 1,200 pounds collected for The Salvation Army.
With the help of the Michigan Dirt Cup Allstar Performance Modified Tour the third annual "Cans from Race Fans" food drive, was held April 17, 2011, and has become a statewide experience. Racetracks including I-96 Speedway, Butler Speedway, Winston Speedway, Owendale Speedway, Cherry Raceway, Hartford Motor Speedway, Merritt Raceway, have joined forces with Haynes and all held their own "Cans from Race Fans" food drive on April 17, 2011 with donations going to their local charities.
2011's Mt. Pleasant-based "Cans from Race Fans" event collected 2,552 food items for the Central Michigan Chapter of the American Red Cross alone, and a truck packed full of food for the Isabella Community Soup Kitchen, plus thanks to help from Domino's Pizza of Mt. Pleasant, even more food was collected for the Mt. Pleasant Fire Department and a Rosebush area church.
Jeremy (Jake) Dickman was a huge part of Cans From Race Fans, not only the Vice President, Jeremy went above and beyond on whatever was asked of him. He will continue to be a huge part of Cans From Race Fans, however he will be working and coaching us from a much better place.

When I dove into Milwaukee Journal-Sentinel's Packers quarterback review on Wednesday, I expected a breakdown of Aaron Rodgers bumpy, but mostly excellent season.

Fairtrade products are all over the UK. In the States, you may only hear about these products when you are looking for them or in health food stores. They are not mainstream yet, but in the UK, Fairtrade is growing bigger and bigger by the year. This came as a surprise to me because the English do not seem to care about the quality of their food or where it comes from. Evidently, I was quite wrong. The Fairtrade Foundation, for those that are not aware is a nonprofit foundation that encourages... Read More

Direct Payments User Group Meets for First Time
We went to the first meeting of the Direct Payments User Group hosted by AgeUK on Wednesday. We were keen to support it, not only because we had tried (and failed) to get something similar going a few years ago, but also because the research we did for Healthwatch last year clearly highlighted the need for more 'peer support.

Social Enterprise and Micro-Enterprise
This short post comes from two simple ideas, and an idea about bringing them together. Micro-enterprises are small local enterprises that provide a range of social and health care, supported housing and leisure services. They are frequently run by and for people who use health and social care services. Social enterprises are defined as trading organisations working for a social purpose. Often they can be the same thing, but they are often not (click here to read more).
Recommendations for Personal Budgets
Today we presented the recommendation from our report Personal Budgets: Where Next in Oxfordshire? At the launch event we held at the end of March, we ran a workshop asking people about their priorities for what we should do next. Healthwatch, who funded the report, asked us to present a short summary of recommendations. Click here to read more.
Report on Personal Budgets Launched
On Saturday 29th March we launched or Report Personal Budgets: Where Next in Oxfordshire? This was the result of nearly four months of collaboration between ourselves and several other groups and organisations that had been involved with Personal Budgets locally and nationally.
Personal Budgets - Stakeholder Event
On 8th March 2014 we held a small informal event in West Oxford Community Centre to look at Personal Budgets, and how they've been working in the county. Since 2008 people receiving adult social care have been able to get a 'personal budget' to buy their own care, with some NHS patients gaining the same rights in 2011. In April of this year NHS patients in other groups will gain the same rights, and we wanted to find out what was happening locally before this change went ahead.
The Move to Personalisation - Community Glue's Experience
What We Liked About 'Personalisation'
Jon and I started Community Glue because we wanted to support initiatives that gave people more say in their social and health care. In previous jobs, we had been frustrated by an approach to commissioning services that often paid tokenistic attention to the views of service users, and led to inflexible support, low staff morale, and a risk-averse culture.
In 2008 Oxfordshire County Council had introduced 'self-directed support', under the ambitious banner of 'Transforming Adult Social Care'. The vision was that, with the help of a support broker, people could design their own support packages, and that this would in turn lead to them shaping services in ways which would meet their needs more effectively.
Having control of their own social care budget seemed to offer people genuine power over how their care was provided. We were optimistic about how this might improve people's experience of social care.
Personal Budgets: Where Next in Oxfordshire?
Money Matters After All
New research shows that social care outcomes for older adults are clearly linked to expenditure, and that the impact of personal budgets has been marginal. Click here to read more.
Lighting a Beacon for Privatisation?
People who care about Oxfordshire's mental health services may have noticed that our Primary Care Trust (soon to be replaced by a Clinical Commissioning Group) recently bought in private sector consultants to help them develop their commissioning strategy for Oxfordshire. One of these was Beacon UK – recently branded beaconhs.co.uk on their web site. While they do provide consultancy, they also act "... as an integrator, coordinating mental health services from different health and social care providers to ensure care effectively meets the needs of each person with mental health problems." Sounds good, but what does it really mean? Click here for whole story
Intensive Interaction at Family Information Fair
The Oxfordshire Family Support Network Annual Information Fair is always a lively and fun event. This time I spent a pleasant hour in the company of Jules McKim, Intensive Interaction Co-ordinator at Southern Health NHS Foundation Trust (successor to the Ridgeway Partnership). Intensive interaction is a new technique rapidly gaining momentum in learning disability services and beyond. As I learned in the workshop, Intensive Interaction is commonly used to help people who don't use spoken words. (Click here to read more).

Press release from Business Wire
CORRECTING and REPLACING Newman Ferrara LLP Files Class Action on Behalf of Purchasers of Zynga, Inc. Common Stock
Thursday, August 02, 2012
CORRECTING and REPLACING Newman Ferrara LLP Files Class Action on Behalf of Purchasers of Zynga, Inc. Common Stock12:37 EDT Thursday, August 02, 2012 NEW YORK (Business Wire) -- In first sentence of release dated July 31, 2012, Case No. should read: 12-cv-4007 (sted 12-cv-124007). The corrected release reads: NEWMAN FERRARA LLP FILES CLASS ACTION ON BEHALF OF PURCHASERS OF ZYNGA, INC. COMMON STOCK Newman Ferrara LLP (www.nfllp.com) announced today that it filed a class action lawsuit in the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of California (Case No. 12-cv-4007) on behalf of purchasers of the common stock of Zynga, Inc. ("Zynga" or the "Company") (NASDAQ: ZNGA) between February 28, 2012 and July 25, 2012, inclusive (the "Class Period") and includes those investors who acquired Zynga stock pursuant to and/or traceable to Zynga's secondary stock offering on April 3, 2012. According to the Complaint, Zynga completed a secondary stock offering on April 3, 2012 which enabled Zynga insiders to sell over 43 million shares of their Zynga stock at a price of $12.00 per share for proceeds of approximately $516 million. On July 25, 2012, Zynga announced its financial results for the second quarter of 2012, reporting substantially lower than expected earnings and lowering its 2012 guidance. Following this announcement, the Company's common stock plummeted 40% in value down to $2.97 per share. The Complaint asserts violations of Sections 11, 12(a)(2), and 15 of the Securities Act of 1933 and Sections 10(b) and 20(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, and Rule 10(b)(5) promulgated thereunder, against Zynga, certain of its officers and directors, and those who served as underwriters in connection with Zynga's secondary stock offering. The Complaint alleges that the defendants issued false and misleading statements and omissions, including a false and misleading Registration Statement and Prospectus in connection with Zynga's secondary offering, about Zynga's business, operations, and growth prospects. No class has yet been certified in the above action. Members of the Class will be represented by the lead plaintiff and counsel chosen by the lead plaintiff. If you wish to be appointed lead plaintiff, you must apply with the Court no later than October 1, 2012. The lead plaintiff will direct the litigation on behalf of the other Class members. The Court will select the lead plaintiff from among applicants claiming the largest investment losses. You are not required to have sold your shares to seek damages or to serve as a lead plaintiff. Investors who purchased shares of Zynga common stock during the Class Period and lost more than $100,000 are encouraged to contact Newman Ferrara attorneys Jeffrey M. Norton (firstname.lastname@example.com) or Roy Shimon (firstname.lastname@example.com) by email or call (212) 619-5400 to discuss this action or the lead plaintiff process.
