Early on a recent morning, a youth drove his car onto the football field and did some doughnuts, causing nearly $2,000 in damage, officials said.
School employees discovered the damage when they arrived that morning. Security cameras captured the whole incident.
Based on a tip, officers went to the home of the suspect and could see remains from the field on his car, Police Chief Gary Gold said.
Television is a two-edged sword. It has been both a contributor to and a detractor of the quality of life in America. On the one hand, television made us more closely connected as a nation and to our world, but on the other, it has also pulled us inside, so that our sense of community is more distant. We don't know our neighbors as we used to, we don't just sit and around and talk like before, because of the neverending temptation to withdraw into the world of television.
A 10-foot banner pinned to the wall of the Elks Lodge 408 welcomed veterans to a mid-day lunch on Sunday in appreciation for the sacrifices they have made for their country. The meal included spaghetti, garlic bread and all the fixings.
Elks leader Angela Sanchez said this is the third year her organization has been honoring veterans with a free lunch. She said through the year, Elks members sponsor many events to help veterans and their families.
On a recent weekend, Rick Roybal organized a cleanup of Union Street Elementary School. More than 50 people showed up.
Roybal and others wanted to wipe down the school from floor to ceiling to prevent the flu from spreading.
At last week's City Council meeting, Mayor Tony Marquez honored Roybal for his work.
Roybal said the effort was successful and that volunteers got the work done in two hours. He said Albuquerque's KRQE television station covered the event.
A Robertson High School assistant football coach accused of getting into a confrontation at McDonald's has been charged with disorderly conduct.
He was relieved of his duties Monday, officials said.
The coach, Phillip Conway-Trujillo, 29, allegedly got into a fight with West Las Vegas football players in the men's restroom around 11:30 p.m. Oct. 30. The coach was reportedly intoxicated, Police Chief Gary Gold said.
Another man, Anthony Pacheco, 21, was also charged.
For all but four area programs, the fall sports season has come to a close.
For Robertson's football and volleyball teams, the Mora volleyball team and one New Mexico Highlands cross country runner, potential glory still awaits.
Raynee Gerhart's Lady Cardinals and Leslie Vigil's Rangerettes begin their state volleyball tournament quests on Thursday in Rio Rancho.
We're glad to see MainStreet Las Vegas taking a proactive approach to a longtime New Town statue, the lion fountain at Grand and Lincoln Avenues. The fountain itself has long been out of order, and now the statue is deteriorating. Unless something is done, Las Vegas will lose yet another piece of its history.
The lion fountain was built in the late 1890s as an alternative watering hole to the infamous saloons that filled New Town during those Wild West days. Preserving it is a matter of civic pride.
The Las Vegas Police Department is asking that alleged victims of former Robertson High School teacher and coach Jay Quintana come forward.
Quintana is accused of 14 counts of criminal sexual penetration of a minor and a count of criminal sexual contact of a minor.
He was arrested last week.
Alleged victims are asked to call police detective Roy Pacheco at 425-7504.
The state Department of Transportation is investigating a workers' prank that involved a small explosion, an official said this week.
Paul Gray, the DOT's local district engineer, said a couple of employees mixed toilet cleaner with aluminum in a plastic bottle at the Rowe maintenance building.
One employee has reportedly suffered a ringing in his ears since then, so the department has sent that employee to a specialist, Gray said.
"We haven't received the physician's statement yet," he said.
Recently my father asked me to help compose a letter to the Veterans Administration. He said that the VA did not have any record of him being in Japan when he was wounded in Korea. I asked him if he had any letters or orders and he presented me with his discharge and, to my surprise, three letters recommended him for the Purple Hearts. As I read through the letters I was amazed that he had been wounded three times in one month. I researched more and found the name of the ship that transported him to Japan and the hospital he was in.

Mars Express
Commissioning Almost Complete
European Space Agency
March 31, 2004
Overall Mission Status
Since the last status report, the overall operational performance of the spacecraft and payload continued to be satisfactory. Some temporary problems were encountered with the Solid State Mass Memory (SSMM), which are currently under investigation.
Remaining payload-commissioning activities are being performed until mid-April. The MARSIS radar will be deployed on 20 April and subsequently the spacecraft will be fully commissioned.
Spacecraft resources, in particular power usage, are still constrained as Mars Express has encountered the first eclipse season, although the duration of eclipses per orbit is now slowly decreasing every day.
Scientific Payload Status
The status and performance of the orbiter payload in Mars orbit is excellent, with new high-resolution stereo and colour images and high-resolution spectral measurements of the planet being acquired, and further radio science data collected.
The orbit of the Mars Express spacecraft continues to be very stable. Imaging instruments and spectrometers have begun global coverage science data acquisition. In particular, HRSC and OMEGA have started to perform mosaic and map construction.
Since the last status report the following science material has been released:
30 March 2004
PFS - Evidence of Methane
Observations by the PFS instrument indicate that methane is present in the Martian atmosphere. The measurements so far suggest that the amount of methane present is about 10 parts per billion.
22 March 2004
HRSC - Ascraeus Mons
The image reveals formations associated with volcanic activity that have also been witnessed on Earth, and elsewhere in the Solar System. The lava tubes are caused by crusting which occurs over a lava channel, effectively turning it into a tunnel. If the tunnel empties of all its lava then it will collapse and leave depression on the planetary surface.
17 March 2004
OMEGA - Water Evidence Confirmed
Further analysis of OMEGA measurements at the Martian south pole have confirmed the presence of water ice. The majority of the water ice is in a permafrost region surrounding the central polar cap. The composition of this region is thought to be 15% water ice and 85% carbon dioxide ice. The measurements were made between 18 January and 11 February 2004 - when summer was coming to an end at the southern cap. This meant the polar cap was at its smallest extent. In the coming months scientists expect the polar cap to grow in size (as atmospheric carbon dioxide freezes onto the pole) and cover some of the permafrost region.
1 March 2004
HRSC - Hecates Tholus
The summit caldera of Hecates Thous, the largest volacno in the Elysium volcano group. The caldera shows multiple collapses caused by the emptying of the underlyig magma chamber. On the sides of the volcano there is evidence for lava flow features.

Oklahoma couldn't have picked a worse time to play the kind of game that is usually reserved for anywhere else but Norman. The Sooners' 39 game winning streak at home ended on Saturday night with a 41-38 loss to a Texas Tech team that was coming off 2 consecutive losses, and was a 29 point underdog going into the game.
Texas Tech borrowed a page from Missouri, who silenced the crowd by jumping to an early 14-3 lead against Oklahoma. The only difference is that unlike Missouri, Tech was able to maintain the intensity for the full 60 minutes. The Red Raiders needed to play a near perfect game if they were to spring the upset, and they delivered; building a 17 point cushion that their opponents could not overcome. Every time the Sooners showed life and mounted a challenge, Tech snatched the momentum right back, knocking them down to the mat.
Let's get to the breakdown.
After scoring on their opening drive, Oklahoma's offense went flat, and didn't gain any traction until the 3rd quarter. In between, everything was out of sync. As Tech kept lighting the scoreboard, the Sooners went into "desperation" mode, trying to force things that just weren't there. Landry Jones had several errant passes, missing open receivers; who weren't doing him any favors either by dropping some of them. One of his errant throws was picked off in the 3rd quarter, but the Sooners' defense held firm and forced a punt.
Ryan Broyles (7 catches for 84 yards) had an unusually quiet outing. With the Sooners trailing 14-7, Broyles lost a fumble that was recovered by Tech, who duly converted it converted it for a touchdown. The next time I heard his name being mentioned was late in the game, when he was flagged for "unsportsmanlike conduct"; which was rather out of character on his part.
Dominique Whaley was out with the flu, which saw Roy Finch (93 yards on 13 carries) make his first start. In addition to Brennan Clay (21 yards on 9 carries), Oklahoma actually ran the ball well - averaging 5 yards per carry compared to Tech's 2.8 - but would at times either go away from it, or just weren't effective when it really mattered most i.e. the red zone
Still, they deserve credit for at least fighting all the way to the bitter end, even if their effort was too little too late.
Where do you start? A unit that averaged 15.8 points per game suddenly gave up 41 points and 572 yards of offense. While the Sooners were without 3 key players, that is still no excuse for a school of its caliber.
The Sooners were unable to register any turnovers, and without a serious pass rush, Tech QB Seth "Teach me how to" Doege hit them up for 441 yards and 4 touchdowns. The notable victim of the Red Raiders' aerial assault was defensive back Gabe Lynn; who was also flagged for a high hit on receiver Aaron Crawford, with the resulting penalty leading to another Tech touchdown for a score of 31-7.
If there are any positives, the Sooners came away with a crucial 4th down stop in the red zone, and also sniffed out a fake punt by the Red Raiders in the 4th quarter. Other than that, there wasn't really much to write home about.
Special Teams:
The kicking game is visibly Oklahoma's weakest link. The Sooners recruit some of the best talent in the nation every year, but haven't had a decent kicker since……, well, in a while. If it ever came down to Oklahoma needing to convert a field goal of 40 yards or more to win a game, any game, chances are you'd be safe betting your mortgage against it. Michael Hunnicutt (#18) missed two attempts, with the latter pretty much kicking Oklahoma out of the hunt for the national championship.
Oklahoma was outscored 17-0 in the 2nd quarter, and this was a defining moment in the game (in my opinion at least). The team showed resolve, battling back and could have still won, but their inconsistencies did them in. Not all is lost however, but the Sooners will need to put forth a complete game from here on out.
The Red Raiders may have just provided an offensive blueprint ("The Doege"; sorry but I couldn't pass it up) that I'm sure other teams will try and emulate. Baylor and Texas A&M, 2 of the Sooners next 3 opponents, favor the passing the game, even though the Aggies boast a more balanced attack.
Next up:
The Sooners head back north to play against 8th ranked Kansas State. The Wildcats might not offer much by way of passing, but given that Baylor and Texas A&M will be waiting right after, the next 3 weeks will make or break Oklahoma's season.

Mitt Romney: Big Business Is Fine, Helped By Tax Havens
Source: Julie Pace / AP / Boston.com
HOPKINS, Minn. — Creating a potential headache for his campaign, Republican presidential candidate Mitt Romney said big businesses in the U.S. were ''doing fine'' in part because they get advantages from offshore tax havens.
His comments echoed similar assertions about the state of big business by President Barack Obama which Romney has criticized. They're also a reminder that the GOP candidate has kept some of his personal fortune in low tax foreign accounts.
''Big business is doing fine in many places,'' Romney said during a campaign fundraiser Thursday. ''They get the loans they need, they can deal with all the regulation. They know how to find ways to get through the tax code, save money by putting various things in the places where there are low tax havens around the world for their businesses.''
Romney's assertions resembled Obama's declaration earlier this summer that the ''private sector is doing fine.'' Romney and other Republicans pounced on the president's comments and cast them as an indication that he was out of touch with the nation's economic struggles.

The Mountaineers trailed from the opening scores until four minutes had elapsed in the second half. * * * THEY WENT ahead to stay at 38-37 after 7:36 of the period on a goal by sophomore Jerry West, whose 23 points were second to Hennon's 29 for scoring honors. From that point, West Virginia pulled out to a 54-45 lead before Pitt's comeback made it 54-51 with 5:21 left. It was 56-55 two minutes later before Don Vincent sank a pair of free throws. Then 6-10 Lloyd Sharrar who dominated both backboards, grabbed a rebound and banked in a vital field goal to cinch the decision. It was unbeaten West Virginia's 13th victory and left Pitt with a 7-5 record. The victory tied a consecutive win record for West Virginia teams. The 1946 WVU squad, on which the Mountaineers present coach Fred Schaus was a star, also won 13 in a row. West Virginia will try for its 14th straight victory Jan. 23 when the Mounties travel to Charlotte, N.C., to play Furman in a Southern Conference game. Only the blazing shooting of Hennon, who holed out 11 field goals and every one of his seven free throws, kept the Panthers in the game. * * * THROUGH THE first half which Pitt dominated until the closing minutes, Vincent's sharpshooting, good for five field goals from the outside, kept the Mountaineers going. At one point Pitt was in front 18-7 but in the closing minutes West Virginia began to pull up and it was Pitt 29, West Virginia 28 at halftime as the Mountaineers held the ball for the final minute for a field goal try that missed the mark. A capacity crowd of 5,168 at Pitt field house saw Pitt go ahead at 37-36 on a free throw by Julius Pegues before a shoddy Pitt pass let West Virginia get away for a layup goal and the Mountaineers were in front to stay. They pulled out quickly from there to build a nine-point margin within the next 2 1/2 minutes before Pitt rallied again. * * * WEST VIRGINIA'S scoring was once again a well-balanced affair with Sharrar's 21 points second to West. Vincent accounted for 14. Only Joey Gardner of the Mountaineer was unable to score. Dave Sawyer's 11 points was second to Hannon on the Pitt side. West Virginia came up with a combination zone and man-to-man defense that had Sharrar clogging the keyhole and and two guards on the corners while the other two defendants chased Pitt players, mostly Hennon.

We were recently made aware of attacks leveraging the recent data breach that involved Epsilon.
According to reports, the attack involves a Web page that looks very similar to the press release issued by Epsilon concerning the breach. The page also instructs the recipients to click a link at the bottom of the post in order to download and run a tool that will supposedly help them determine if their personal information was among those disclosed during the attack.
We were able to analyze the details of the attack and found that the link downloads an .EXE file now detected as TROJ_MSPOSER.ASM. Running TROJ_MSPOSER.ASM displays the following GUI, which seems to suggest that the system is being checked.
Of course, the graphic is really just there in an attempt to convince the victims that what they downloaded was really a tool that will help them determine if their information is still secure. In the background, however, another malicious file is being installed into the system.

WASHINGTON - U.S. officials say the Pentagon is moving two warships to the Libyan coast, in the aftermath of the attack in Benghazi that killed the U.S. ambassador and three others.
Officials say one destroyer, the USS Laboon, moved to a position off the coast Wednesday, and the USS McFaul is en route and should be stationed off the coast within days. The officials say the ships, which carry Tomahawk missiles, do not have a specific mission. But they give commanders flexibility to respond to any mission ordered by the president.
The destroyers have crews totaling about 300. There have been four destroyers in the Mediterranean for some time. These moves will increase that to five.
Officials spoke on condition of anonymity because they were not authorized to publicly discuss troop movements.

Airline Agreements 9 side coverage, but a significant number (27%) require $5 million. On the airside, most airports require between $5 and $10 million. Workers Compensation. Most airports (90%) require workers compensation coverage as required and in amounts specified by state law, with 86% requiring employer's liability. Property Insurance. If property insurance is required the agreement generally specifies full replacement value. Policy Requirements A vast majority of airline agreements (98%) require an Insurance Certificate, but only 4% require an actual copy of the policy. Some agreements do give the airport the right to request a copy of the policy at its discretion. Ninety-six percent (96%) of agreements require the airport to be designated as an additional insured; however, only 50% require an actual policy endorsement. The standard requirement for notification of policy cancellation or change is 30 days. Airports are split on the issue of requiring the airline coverage to be primary and non- contributory with a small majority (53%) requiring this provision. Eighty percent (80%) of airports require the policy form to be an occurrence versus claims- made basis. Most agreements (62%) did not specify a penalty for failure to maintain insurance, although in most agreements this failure would be considered an event of default. A cross-liability clause is not generally specified in newer airline agreements. Sixty-one percent of airports in the ACI study did not specify a minimum financial rating for the insurance carrier for the airlines; however, there is a trend in newer agreements to specify a high financial rating. Most airports (67%) require a waiver of subrogation in the agreement and there is an increas- ing trend for this requirement. Most agreements (70%) allow a periodic review of airline insurance to ensure adequacy. Self insurance is a particularly difficult issue in airline agreements. In the ACI survey asking if self insurance is allowed, 30% of airports said yes, 33% said no, and 37% were silent. This is an area for careful consideration by the airport. The risk of self insurance is that there is no third- party insurance carrier to defend the claim as there is when the airport is "an additional insured" on the airline's policy. There is particular cost and risk to the airport in cases where the airline contests the claim. See CRP-CD-81 (enclosed herein), Appendix to Chapter 1, Airline Agreements, for excerpts from the BWI and STL Airline Agreements for provisions regarding insurance coverage to be provided by airlines. 1.14 Assignments and Subletting Airline agreements universally require the airline to obtain the consent of the airport spon- sor to any assignment of the lease or subletting, with most agreements making a specific excep- tion to the consent requirement for assignments to a parent or subsidiary or in the case of a merger. Most agreements state that the assignor or sublessor will remain liable for all rents and charges through the term of the agreement. A written assignment or sublease is generally required, and subleases are typically restricted to the sublessor's actual cost plus a 15% administrative fee.

Three House Democrats with close ties to House Speaker Pelosi have finalized a detailed set of guidelines on what they are seeking in global warming legislation, including more aggressive cuts than those pending in the Senate and the Bush administration. The trio did not offer legislation but broader principles for guiding greenhouse gas cap-and-trade legislation, including annual emission cuts that would lead to reductions of between 15-20 percent below current levels in 2020 and 80 percent below 1990 levels by 2050. "Acting in accordance with these principles is critical to achieving a fair and effective bill that will avoid the most dangerous global warming and assist those harmed by the warming that is unavoidable, while strengthening our economy," House Global Warming Chairman Edward Markey, and Reps. Henry Waxman, D-Calif., and Jay Inslee, D-Wash., say in a letter to Pelosi they are circulating today. A Senate bill approved by the Environment and Public Works Committee in December and awaiting floor action the first week in June would reduce emissions about 70 percent by midcentury. President Bush last week outlined a goal of stabilizing greenhouse gas emissions by 2025.
The principles from Markey, Waxman and Inslee encompass ideas that all three have been espousing for months and may play well with Pelosi. She has close relationships with Markey — whom she tapped to head the temporary global warming panel she created — and fellow Californian Waxman. Pelosi will have to bridge differences with the House Energy and Commerce Committee, which represents Democrats from coal, auto and other industrial areas, and Republicans who say cap-and-trade programs are too costly to the economy.
Energy and Commerce Chairman Dingell and Energy and Air Quality Subcommittee Rick Boucher, D-Va., have spoken favorably of emulating EPA's acid rain program in allowing a vast majority of emission credits to be given away. Markey, Waxman and Inslee say one way to keep the costs of a cap-and-trade plan manageable is to auction emission credits and use revenues "to benefit the public." If allocations are given away, "they must be provided only to existing facilities for a brief transition period and the quantity must be limited to avoid windfall profits," they wrote. Dingell said, "I welcome this constructive announcement from my colleagues and look forward to working with them as we wrestle with the legislative details necessary to transform any set of principles into action.".
Their other principles include allowing states to enforce tougher standards if they so choose; requiring a "significant" percentage of the revenues from an auction of emission credits to go to renewable energy and efficiency sources; and stating the U.S. must negotiate to reach binding international reduction goals under the United Nations and encourage developing countries to lower emissions as well.

More than a week ago, 70 people were among those who ventured out into the late night in Aurora, Colo., to catch a midnight showing of The Dark Knight Rises.
Twelve would never return home. Fifty-eight others will spend the rest of their lives scarred in some way from the worst mass shooting in U.S. history.
And, in the backdrop of such carnage, the horror inflicted by suspect James Holmes and his arsenal unearthed the usual partisan positioning.
Is more gun control needed - especially regarding assault weapons?
Or, conversely, should laws be relaxed, allowing more citizens to carry concealed weapons?
And what about all those violent images in movies, TV shows and video games ... too graphic, too pervasive?
Whatever one's beliefs, simplistic, politically expedient posturing will no more deter such horrendous acts than it did after the mass killings at Colorado's Columbine High School and Virginia Tech.
Would more guns in that theater have helped, as some have suggested?
Even the best marksman likely would have had extreme difficulty pinpointing the shooter in a darkened, smoke-filled theater of panic.
And, with other guns blazing, how many more would have been killed?
Others say it's time to crack down on high-powered assault weaponry. That somehow the type of weapon - not the user of that weapon - is to blame.
Then there are those who wring their hands over the violent content of movies and videos. Or insist that somehow fame (so let's not say his name) is the guiding force.
These are predictable reactions because they lend themselves to a very familiar equation - cause and effect - and thus control.
It's easier to focus on these issues than something much more elusive, sinister, uncontrollable - the human mind.
Of course, there are efforts. In the midst of gun and Hollywood movie activists, critics and experts comes a parade of child psychologists and parenting experts and mental health professionals.
If your child is ...
Look for these signs ...
This may be helpful to a degree, but let's not kid ourselves; the diagnosis and treatment of the mentally ill still remains a complex and oft-misunderstood process (the "is he faking it or isn't he" commentary running nonstop during Holmes' first court appearance being a prime example.)
Faking it? Faking what? That he's out of his mind? Does anyone need more proof than the carnage he left behind?
So, where does all of this leave an impatient, sometimes calculating and political public?
Simply, unsatisfied.
We want something we can't have - an answer.

By Samantha L. QuigleyAmerican Forces Press Service
WASHINGTON, Aug. 1, 2008 Letters a Minnesota couple has received thanking them for musical instruments they've sent to deployed troops show that just a simple note can change the atmosphere in the desert.
"The purpose of these … instruments is to relieve stress and raise morale," said Barb Baker, one of the founders of Operation Happy Note. "According to the letters we receive, music is a great stress reliever."
Operation Happy Note sends free musical instruments to deployed servicemembers wherever they're stationed.
Baker and her husband, Steve, owners of Fergus Music in Fergus, Minn., unwittingly started Operation Happy Note in March 2005 when they sent her son a guitar for his birthday. He was serving overseas with 134th Signal Battalion at the time.
"He had a buddy who saw it and wanted one, and then another buddy," Baker said. "It was decided [we would] hold a fundraiser so we could send more guitars to his unit, and we just never quit."
The organization kept right on growing and garnered national attention with mentions in national news programs and periodicals. To date, the organization has sent more than 2,500 instruments to servicemembers, including guitars, mandolins, banjos, violins, horns and harmonicas. Anything that makes music is fair game; Steve Baker even wrote a lesson program that includes a CD for those who don't know how to play an instrument.
More than 1,300 troops are on the waiting list for instruments. The organization has a large inventory of instruments, but it lacks the funds to ship them.
"It costs an average of $15 to $30 to ship an instrument," Baker said. "Our last inventory shows that it would take $34,000 to send the instruments we have on hand."
Operation Happy Note is a new supporter of America Supports You, a Defense Department program connecting citizens and companies with servicemembers and their families serving at home and abroad.

Things I liked:It's really really like a real gun, it even looks better than the 1911 witness, the build quality is also great, the slide is tight but very smooth
Things I would have changed:The magazine design is the only drawback I found on this gun, why don't KWC just drill a hole on the magazine like their other products? I spend half hour to figure out how to load BBs into this magazine, it's so unti-user-friendly, also I thinks the gun looks better if the magazine extension can be removed.
What others should know:Figure out the loading method before shooting
Things I liked:Crisp Blow Back Action. Slide locks back after last round. Magazine is metal. Full-Auto Mod so ez and reversible. No need to grind just remove spring & clip Ready to rock. Paint is much better than most. See how long it stays fresh
Things I would have changed:The plastic screw for holding & puncturing the cartridge need to be all metal. Spin the hex and the Co2 plug will be stuck. Needs more power. Higher FPS would be a big improvement
What others should know:Too EZ to make full-auto. Great gun for tinkerers.
The New All Metal KWC/Swiss Arms P84 is a blowback pistol
P92 very accurate I get 60 shots semi-auto, 40 shots full-auto bursts using Crosman Co2 cartridges. Shooting the P92 daily Just keeps on rockin. BlowBack Action still as crisp as the day I opened the box Now the P92 has a little Brother the 84, smaller higher fps 360fps claimed
Things I liked:Realistic look and feel, highly reliable and rarely jams. Well made
Things I would have changed:HEAVY - no doubt due to its steel slide, which causes the pistol to be unbalanced towards the front that cause a lowering of the gun during firing, but one becomes accustom to it.
What others should know:I've owned both this and an earlier GSG version that are identical. Each had a HAIR TRIGGER. Both lasted between 5,500 and 6,500 shots and broke in identical places - the outer barrel 2.5" from the mussel. I will buy a third in the near future.

I so love Ferruccio Laviani cabinet. One end is an intricately carved bombe chest with ball and claw feet. The highly detailed ornamentation dissolves into a sleek cabinet with brushed brass handles. You can get it here.

US ibook with chinese keyboard?!?!
Hi guys.
I'm about to buy a 12" ibook and was wondering if I would be able to get it with a foreign keyboard. I know the keyboard by heart and thought the keyboard in chinese/japanese/korean would look so cool. IS this possible with a US ibook? Plus, does the japanese/chinese/korean ibook even have a foreign keyboard?
I think all keyboards (of the same model at least) are technically identical regardles of what is painted on the keys. So if you press a key on a us keyboard and the key in the same location on japanese one, both should send same signal to OS.
thats what i mean. Could i get a foreign painted keyboard? Instead of the alphabet,i could get chinese characters-painted keyboard

First Look: Downtown's MX Movies Makes Dinner and a Movie Way Too Easy
|Mabel Suen
|Ozark Forest Mushroom Carbonara cooked with Salume Beddu pancetta and Midwest Pasta ($13).
"We're offering a complete experience. There aren't many places you can go and have a nice scallop dish while watching a movie," Jones says.
Those "Seared Viking Village Scallops ($15)" and red wine braised Illinois beef ($16) entrees make up the priciest portion of the menu alongside appetizers and sandwiches. The drink menu includes local draft beer, cocktails, spirits and wine. In-house made bloody marys feature a Midwest horseradish twist.
MX Movies tickets cost $12 for adults, $10 for students and seniors and $8 for matinees and children under 12. If you're looking for the theatre right now, you'll have to put in some effort. A thirty-foot sign is in the works, but for now, it still feels like a well-kept secret. Pro tip: figure out parking and showtimes ahead of time.
The MX Movies bar opens an hour before the day's first showtime.

|Posted by Alana Woods on January 31, 2012 at 6:00 PM
Authors, did you know this?
Over Christmas I ran a promotion on my eBooks and noticed the Prime badge that indicates they are available in KDP Select had disappeared from them when searching under the 'Books' drop down menu. It continued to show if I searched under the 'Kindle store' menu. I contacted Amazon and they replied to say that when they searched for 'Alana Woods' under 'Books' the badge was visible. After a bit of to-ing and fro-ing of emails I was asked to send a screen shot. I was then sent this message:
I looked into this and found that you are viewing the title from Australia. Since the borrowing of books are only available to US Prime customers, this feature will not always display on the website when publishers are viewing the content from a country outside the US.
I then went looking to see if this information is available and found this in the KDP Select option terms and conditions:
2.2 Inclusion in Kindle Owners' Lending Library Program. Digital Books included in KDP Select will be automatically included in the Kindle Owners' Lending Library Program described in more detail here. The Kindle Owners' Lending Library Program will be available on Amazon.com and may not be available on international Amazon websites or to customers outside the United States. Your Digital Book will not be available through the Kindle Owners' Lending Library Program during any period when it is available for free in the Kindle store.
This would explain why, when I enrolled for the Prime free one month trial a while back, nothing happened.
I don't know now, but I might have given a bit more thought to enrolling in KDP Select if I had known it was not available to anyone other than US customers.

My 01 GMC Sierra that I bought from a dealership ..at the age of 18 ...straight from the show room floor , to me it was the best day of my life ...like any other person of my age at the time would of felt ...
As for specs ...currently it has the 4.8 L that I bought it with ...not to sure of the HP / torque of the truck do to the fact that it was tuned by the dealership that I bought it from ..it hit 100 mph with no problem
Factory Options
So we go back to the dealership story ...the dealer drop factory leather bucket seats , as well 18 inch barb Elite wheels , now this I don't know but I haven't seen the type of green color my truck has currently if is rare the name of the color is " summer forest green" not to be confused with forest green metallic...I have seen two trucks in California beside mine with that color ...plus my truck has matching color leather steering wheel ..and to add my truck is step side single cab
As far as mods ...currently it has double dump exhaust ..and a K&N filter charger ...I do have a TBS but when I try to install it ...it made the engine knock and run rich don't know why ...my guess is do to the the dealer had the truck tuned by prestige ...the ecu is not translating all that air or something...if someone knows why is doing that ...please let me know

A 22-year-old man died from injuries sustained in a two-vehicle accident in Campbellsburg on July 19, according to information from the Kentucky State Police.
Emergency personnel responded to a fatal motorcycle accident on Main Street in Campbellsburg at 7:48 p.m.
Troopers identified the victim as John R. Allgeier IV of Smithfield. Trooper Jim Phelps conducted the investigation at the intersection of U.S. 421 and Lake Road.
The woman many kids at Eminence Elementary School referred to as Gus' mom the teacher last school year will now be known as Gus' mom the assistant principal.
Sherry Curtsinger's youngest son was a kindergarten student last year. When she taught in his classroom, she gained the moniker and it caught on throughout the school. She's called by many names — Mom, teacher, coach. Curtsinger gains a new title this year, assistant principal of Eminence Elementary School.
Pleasureville has taken another step to grow as a retail destination with the opening of an indoor farmers market on Main Street.
Two shops down from Pleasureville Hardware, connected to the Main Street Bakery & Café and through a door in back of Nanny & Papa's Craft and Gift Shop, the Pleasureville Farmers Market has sold locally raised vegetables and grass-fed beef to customers during its soft opening. Judith Shaw, who lives in the Franklinton was among the first to stop in.
After July 14 storms dumped up to six inches on eastern Henry County, flooding homes in Sulphur and causing significant damage to roads, county officials have made a local disaster declaration in order to receive relief funds.
Henry County officials will seek both state and Federal Emergency Management Administration aid as it works to recover from flooding.
The cloudy water issue experienced by Henry County Water District #2 has been cleared up at the treatment plant, and workers have been flushing the distribution system to expel any residue, according to the chief operating officer.
On July 17, employee Keith Morris drove down Hwy. 421, heading toward Pleasureville, stopping at three hydrants along the way, one at Harry Hill Park, one at the county fairgrounds and another by a field to open them for three or so minutes.
Students returning to Henry County and Eminence schools this fall will find a few changes happened during their summer vacations.
Work continues on building a new wing on Eminence Independent Schools, the former KFC got torn down and the district acquired the old DeliPlus strip mall.
Nine Henry County students will attend the newly opened iLead Academy, the regional school focusing on math and technology skills through project-based learning. The Henry County Board of Education named Randy Hartford as the new school resource officer at the high school.
Besides being a recognition of agricultural heritage, Henry County Harvest Showcase features the best things in life — good food and good fellowship, as organizer Bonnie Cecil expressed it.
The July 25 event at the fairgrounds will remind locals of their agricultural roots and let visitors experience the benefits of life in Henry County.
Originally from Louisville, Cecil sought her own piece of the serenity here because she wanted a farm for children to camp on. Living here is all she could have imagined and more.
"Runoff," the independent movie filmed in Henry County and other parts of the Bluegrass State, will have its Kentucky premiere July 23 at the Kentucky Science Center in downtown Louisville.
What once was a controversial move by school districts across the country is now an expectation of foundational school safety.
"It used to be people asked why we needed an officer in school," said Henry County Public Schools Superintendent Tim Abrams. "Now people would question us if we didn't have an officer on staff."

Andre 3000 Says 'Pink Matter' Was Not An Outkast Collaboration
It looks as though we can dead the idea of an Outkast Reunion. Andre 3000 is over it.
Earlier this week, folks got OD excited when a remix to Frank Ocean's "Pink Matter" emerged that featured both Big Boi and Andre 3000. This was the first time that the group were featured on the same track in some years and Outkast fans were hoping that it signaled the beginning of more music to come from the Iconic Hip Hop duo.
That is definitely not the case. After the track made it's rounds across the Internet, Andre 3000 sent the following statement to SPIN:
It's important for me to be clear about the origins of my contributions to 'Pink Matter' and 'Sorry.'
I was approached as a solo artist by both Frank Ocean & Tip. I discussed musical direction with each artist and completed my verses. It was after that when Big Boi's name came up.
I never want to mislead our audience – I worried that some would think these were Outkast collaborations. These songs are not Outkast collaborations. I discussed this rationale with Big, Frank and T.I. and everyone agreed. That is why I was surprised to read about these remixes.
I understand that anyone can put out an unofficial remix to any song but I have an obligation to be honest with fans about what this is … and what it isn't."
From the outside looking in, it seems as though Big Boi is really trying to make this Outkast reunion happen but Three Stacks has been avoiding it like the plague. Andre also has made it clear numerous times that he doesn't like to tease the fans. Last year, he revealed in an interview that it's the very reason he will not appear in videos for songs that he is featured on:
When I would get these calls from artists, I felt great about it. At the same time, I never wanted to tease people in a way where I'd be in the video and then they won't see me for another ten years or anything. So, you know, when I would talk to these artists and we'd agree that we'd do these songs, we would all be in agreement that it was just vocals. There was no visual or anything. Every artist I work with from Beyonce, from Young Jeezy and Jay-Z, from BoB, it was all understood before my first rhyme was written that there was going to be no videos. And I always felt like—you know, I haven't been in even in a video with Big Boi—it's kind of disrespectful of me if I can just jump in a video with a new artist and I haven't even jumped in the video with my own partner. […] I just feel like—it just didn't seem like a right time to do it. If it's not my project or an Outkast thing, or you know, if I'm supporting Big Boi, then it just didn't make sense for me. It just didn't feel right doing it.

I am proud that this is the kind of Champions we have at Auburn!
OK. There is no traffic in the middle of 280. What about you? Do you run in the lanes?
Almost Champions fits Tuscaloosa to a "T".
That is the cruxt of the entire story. Reading comprehension is not your strong point.
Let's build the "ALMOST CHAMPIONS PLAZA" in Tuscaloosa and put plaques of all the NC winning football coaches on it as well! It could be near the stadium and we could do away with the rules of competitive selection to design it.
That way we could again try to convince ourselves of our worth and overcome low self esteem in another public expression.
All folks here need is IHOP and the TIDE.
Ok, I'm looking. What am I supposed to see?
You need to get out and see what is going on in our "rival" cities. We think they are rivals, they dont even see us.
The reality is that Bham is a collection of backward thinking conservatives who are quite happy living within an hour of Tuscaloosa. Most people do not want anything to change. That is why we continue to sink sink sink.
If you want a town where upbeat is the word and new things are cool go to Atlanta. Ive lived there, and it is quite different. The leadership is urban black and able to handle complicated concepts. We have counrty black leaders, who have no idea of what is going on.
That is like a giant tax. I thought the republicans were against raising taxes. Oh yeah, only on the rich.
They were not clerical errors. They were deliberate acts of gambling with money they had no business using.
Just in time to fund the misnamed "Champions Plaza" conveniently tucked away off the beaten path for Women's sports.
AU has 19 NC, UA 15. The real Champions Plaza is across the state and is called Toomer's Corner.
Push the women's sports to off the beaten path along with the fans.
There already is a Champions Plaza in the state. It's called Toomer's Corner.
Obama has taken out the # 1 & 2 leaders of the people that attacked the US on 9/11. That is his stance.
Another Republican sucking at the Government teat.
Sorry, but talent and ability trump hard work and dedication every time. If ya don't have it, all the hard work and dedication cant get you very far.
The problem is comparing Birmingham with Nashville and Charlotte. Birmingham has noting in common with those two cities. Having lived in Atlanta, those two cities had their sites on pursuing Atlanta.
Birmingham should look to Montgomery (which is about to overtake Birmingham in city population) and Mobile for peers.
The lock hold the University of Alabama has on Birmingham is choking it. They want it to be like a big Tuscaloosa, which it is in a lot of ways.
Grrrreeeaaattttt uniforms!
As I recall, auburn was the first of the two teams to land 4 in the first round of the NFL draft.
I remember Saban brought bAMA out in the spread in the game against LSU or Arkansas last season.
Flexibility is one key of genius.
Gene Stallings once said on making a decision that lost a game, "I may have been wrong but I was never in doubt." That is an absolutely idiotic point of view, I guess shared by bAMA fans. Yogi Berra once said "were lost, but were making good time." Sounds like Stallings to me. Inflexible, never a really great coach.
Well, Montgomery's beautiful Riverfront Park Stadium is only 90 minutes away, with the Alley's bars and restaurants a waiting. Birmingham's may never get off the block.
Re: Rolltider44; As I recall AU won the NC in 2010, in Coach Chizic's SECOND YEAR! If bAMA did not have saban, they would be after Chizic in a heartbeat.

Tennessee took advantage of a seven-run fifth inning in staying undefeated on the opening day of the Charleston Southern Buccaneer Invitational as the Volunteers defeated host Charleston Southern on Friday afternoon at the CSU Softball Field, 8-1.
The Buccaneers pushed across their lone run in the bottom of the sixth inning as Hayes Holdsworth brought in Jasmine Conley on an infield groundout, sending the teams into the seventh frame, but the CSU (3-8) comeback ended there as the Volunteers (16-3) held on for the win.
Jennifer Giles (1-6) suffered the loss, carrying a no-hitter into the third inning before struggling to escape the fifth inning in giving up eight runs — six earned.
Dane Kelly scored two goals and Quinton Griffith added another as the Charleston Battery defeated the College of Charleston, 3-0, in a preseason exhibition match Thursday.

July 30, 2015
MATTOON, Ill. -- A Republican congressman from Illinois worries that Energy Department plans to scale back a next-generation, low-pollution power plant could scuttle the deal.
The power and coal companies developing FutureGen last month announced plans to build it in the central Illinois community of Mattoon.
But the Energy Department is providing most of the money and worries about the cost, which is now approaching $2 billion.
Congressman John Shimkus says he believes the Energy Department is mulling downsizing the project and spreading the technology to several sites around the country.
Shimkus says the Energy Department has made it clear it'll walk if the project doesn't get retooled, and that he's unsure anyone can stop them.
The Energy Department isn't discussing the matter publicly.
Mattoon was chosen over another Illinois site and two in Texas for the FutureGen project. The Texas sites were near Odessa and Jewett.
