Four men were sentenced Friday in Jefferson County Court to state prison terms for various offenses.
Emmanual L. Sheppard, 31, Marietta, Ga., was sentenced to eight years in prison and also was ordered to undergo an additional five years of supervision upon his release for Jan. 4 guilty pleas to two counts of first-degree criminal possession of a controlled substance, five counts of criminal use of drug paraphernalia and single counts of third-degree criminal possession of a controlled substance and second-degree conspiracy.
He admitted that on April 1, he, with others, possessed more than 8 ounces of cocaine, as well as items used to weigh and package the drug, at 6 Institute St., Apt. 7, Adams. Village police, who had gone to the residence to investigate a reported odor of marijuana and found 1.3 kilograms of cocaine, estimated the drugs street value at $130,000.
Christopher A. Wilson, 31, Watertown, pleaded guilty Jan. 7 to first-degree criminal possession of a controlled substance in connection with the incident and is expected to be sentenced March 29 to 12 years in prison, followed by five years post-release supervision. Kristin S. Avallone-Clark, 23, Carthage, pleaded guilty Feb. 14 to second-degree criminal possession of a controlled substance and was referred to Drug Court.
In other court activity:
Pelandrow D. Baker, 34, Watertown, was sentenced to three years in prison, followed by two years post-release supervision, for a Jan. 16 guilty plea to third-degree attempted criminal sale of a controlled substance. Further information about the charge was not available from the court. He was sentenced as a second-felony offender, having been sentenced in County Court in November 2008 to three years in prison for a conviction of third-degree attempted criminal sale of a controlled substance. He was accused of trying to sell cocaine at his Central Street apartment.
Quintel E. Flowers, 26, Watertown, was sentenced as a second-felony offender to three years in prison, followed by two years post-release supervision, for Jan. 30 guilty pleas to third-degree attempted criminal sale of a controlled substance as a result of one incident and fourth-degree criminal possession of a weapon as a result of a second. He also admitted violating probation. He admitted that he tried to sell cocaine July 26 and that on Nov. 27 he possessed three daggers that it was illegal for him to have because he previously had been convicted of crimes. At the time, he was serving five years probation imposed in December 2011 for convictions on two counts of third-degree burglary for breaking into two Watertown buildings. He admitted violating probation by committing the new crimes.
Shane A. Deshane, 29, Gouverneur, was sentenced to one to three years in prison for Jan. 2 guilty pleas to fourth-degree criminal possession of stolen property, misdemeanor driving while intoxicated and third-degree unlawfully fleeing a police officer in a motor vehicle as a result of one incident and two counts of fourth-degree grand larceny for two other incidents. He also was fined $1,500, was ordered to pay $800 in restitution, had his drivers license revoked and was ordered to install an ignition interlock device on any vehicle he owns or operates.
Mr. Deshane admitted that he was intoxicated Sept. 14 when he failed to stop for state police on Valley View Drive in the town of Pamelia. Police said at the time that the pursuit of Mr. Deshane reached speeds of 90 mph for about 15 miles before the vehicle was halted by a stop stick that flattened one of its tires. Police subsequently found that the 1994 Chevrolet Mr. Deshane was driving had been reported stolen from Depot Street in Gouverneur. Mr. Deshane also admitted that on Sept. 7 or 8, he stole a 2000 Pontiac Grand Am in the town of Pamelia and that on Aug. 18, he stole a 2002 Chrysler Sebring in the town of LeRay.

MASSENA Thanks in part to a $225,000 loan from the North Country Alliance, a Massena company plans to expand production and add dozens of jobs over the next three years.
The loan, announced in a news release this week, will be combined with a $250,000 loan from the St. Lawrence River Valley Redevelopment Agency and $1,323,000 in private financing to purchase equipment that will allow New Jersey-based Purinepharma LLC to begin manufacturing medicines and nutritional supplements.
Production at the plant began in November, when a dozen hourly employees were hired, joining the five full-time employees already working in Massena, according to Purinepharma operations manager Venkat Kakani.
He said production stopped over the holidays, but has resumed. Once the funding package is finalized, he said, all employees will be full time.
The low-interest loans from the River Valley Redevelopment Agency and North Country Alliance supplement the companys bank loan that will help Purinepharma accelerate this process, Mr. Kakani said. Within three years, Purinepharma expects to produce over 20 million bottles of products in the plant, which will create substantial employment in the community.
According to the companys agreement with the River Valley Redevelopment Agency, the company is required to retain two full-time employees, while creating 15 additional full-time jobs over the next three years.
Mr. Kakani said he expects to far surpass that expectation.
I dont think we will wait three years, he said. In three years we should have between 60 and 70 employees.
In addition to the availability of low-cost power through the Massena Electric Department, Massenas location also helped to make it the perfect fit for Purinepharma, Mr. Kakani said.
The strategically located manufacturing plant in close proximity to the St. Lawrence Seaway will allow the company to serve these markets very effectively, he said.
Company executives said the decision to locate their manufacturing plant in Massena was also made easier with the availability of local talent and the ability to complete the necessary renovations to begin production at a reasonable cost.
The plant is situated in a building that formerly housed an Alcoa laboratory.
The citizens of the county and agencies like the St. Lawrence County Industrial Development Agency, River Valley Redevelopment Agency and North Country Alliance have been very much welcoming of Purinepharma, Mr. Kakani said. We are very glad to be here.
Purinepharma will make generic, over-the-counter nasal and throat sprays and nutritional supplements that will be sold under store brand names, as well as its own Medibest and NuMed product lines. The company plans to expand production to include analgesics and cough and cold medicines.
The company is planning to export its products to international markets including Canada, Nigeria, Russia and Ukraine.

Audiobook: The Kitchen Counter Cooking School
by Kathleen Flinn
Read by Marguerite Gavin
ages: adult
Support your local independent bookstore: buy it there!
(Also a post for Weekend Cooking.)
I adored Flinn's first book, The Sharper Your Knife, the Less You Cry, and was quite excited to tackle her next book.
Home from Paris and Le Cordon Bleu, author Flinn is wondering what to do with her life. She really has no interest in owning a restaurant, and is getting tired of people asking her when she's going to open one (and on a similar line, when are she and her husband going to have a baby...). Then, in a grocery store, inspiration hits: she sees a woman whose grocery cart is full of processed foods, and the reason? Because she doesn't feel she can cook. It's intimidating. She doesn't know how. It's too hard. Thus, the Project is born: Flinn finds nine volunteers all who are generally insecure about cooking, and persuades them to come in for a series of lessons on cooking basics. Flinn's goal: to give them the skills and confidence to cook and turn away from fast food and processed food.
I'll tell you straight up: I learned a lot from this book. A lot. And that was listening to the audio version. I need to go out and purchase the book, so I can have it as a reference in my kitchen. She really does go over all the basics: knife skills, chicken, meat, vegetables, braising, roasting, soup, salad, vinaigrette... it's all in there. And Flinn is a good teacher. I'm sure her nine volunteers learned a lot from the classes, but she was able to convey what was taught -- with a few side trips, to Rome and some fancy dinner parties to raise money -- through her words in a way that engaged and interested me. I ended up thinking about this as a practical Michael Pollan: while he spouts ideals (and good ones at that), Flinn actually gives people the tools to use in putting those ideals -- eating real food, cooking with real ingredients -- to use.
The woman who read the book grated on me at first; she has weird pauses in the middle of sentences that bothered me. Also: listening to recipes being read aloud isn't that great, so I ended up skipping those. Even with those shortcomings (and they're not even Flinn's fault), it's the best kind of food book: useful, interesting, yummy-sounding with dozens of good recipes that are easy to use. Hopefully, it'll do for you what it did for me: inspire you to cook.

I have read other reviews of this one and it sounds like a keeper! Thanks! (I think you are right, that this would be better in print form. Listening to recipes being read aloud would be weird.)

I'm reading this one right now with my mom and sisters and we're all really enjoying it. We all have such different experiences in the kitchen but we're able to each take something and make it our own.
And Yes! You do need to get a copy of the book! I recently made the 5 Minute Artisan Bread recipe that she shares and it turned out delicious.

Ohhhh, I didn't even know she had another book out! I loved her first book AND I definitely need her kitchen counter tips, so I will definitely check this one out!

Amendment by Pub. L. 107–110effective Jan. 8, 2002, except with respect to certain noncompetitive programs and competitive programs, see section 5 ofPub. L. 107–110, set out as an Effective Date note under section 6301 of this title.
Pub. L. 106–25, § 2,Apr. 29, 1999, 113 Stat. 41, provided that: "Congress makes the following findings:
"(1) States differ substantially in demographics, in school governance, and in school finance and funding. The administrative and funding mechanisms that help schools in one State improve may not prove successful in other States.
"(2) Although the Elementary and Secondary Education Act of 1965 [20 U.S.C. 6301 et seq.] and other Federal education statutes afford flexibility to State educational agencies and local educational agencies in implementing Federal programs, certain requirements of Federal education statutes or regulations may impede local efforts to reform and improve education.
"(3) By granting waivers of certain statutory and regulatory requirements, the Federal Government can remove impediments for local educational agencies in implementing educational reforms and raising the achievement levels of all children.
"(4) State educational agencies are closer to local school systems, implement statewide educational reforms with both Federal and State funds, and are responsible for maintaining accountability for local activities consistent with State standards and assessment systems. Therefore, State educational agencies are often in the best position to align waivers of Federal and State requirements with State and local initiatives.
"(5) The Education Flexibility Partnership Demonstration Act [former 20 U.S.C. 5891 (e)] allows State educational agencies the flexibility to waive certain Federal requirements, along with related State requirements, but allows only 12 States to qualify for such waivers.
"(6) Expansion of waiver authority will allow for the waiver of statutory and regulatory requirements that impede implementation of State and local educational improvement plans, or that unnecessarily burden program administration, while maintaining the intent and purposes of affected programs, such as the important focus on improving mathematics and science performance under title II of the Elementary and Secondary Education Act of 1965 [20 U.S.C. 6601 et seq.] (Dwight D. Eisenhower Professional Development Program), and maintaining such fundamental requirements as those relating to civil rights, educational equity, and accountability.
"(7) To achieve the State goals for the education of children in the State, the focus must be on results in raising the achievement of all students, not process."

Testimonials from clients
"Liz is a gifted counselor whose common sense approach to health is backed by a solid understanding of scientific research." - J.S., Chicago
Testimonials from clients
" Liz's role as clinical nutritionist, healer, author, health educator, in my own personal life, has increased all of my clinical data statistics from within the allopathic traditions. It has paid for itself many times over.
The typical spinal cord injury population may sometimes have to be hospitalized routinely once or twice a year. I haven't been hospitalized in over 15 years and Liz's mentoring provided me with this amazing statistic. Clearly a win-win situation for my body, mind and spirit.
My insurance carrier loves her and literally gives her carte blanche for every situation. My friends in community are always complimenting me on how fantastic I look for having been in a wheelchair for 30 years now."
"Mazel-Tov for Liz, a true visionary in health and healing wisdom."

This is a randomized prospective study into metabolic adverse events during initial antiretroviral therapy in HIV-1-infected men. The following regimens are compared: lopinavir-ritonavir + Combivir and lopinavir-ritonavir + nevirapine (nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitor [NRTI]-sparing). Prior to the start of therapy and 3, 12, 24, and 36 months thereafter the distribution of body fat and bone density (bioelectrical impedance analysis [BIA], computed tomography [CT] and dual energy x-ray absorptiometry [DEXA]), lipid spectrum, mitochondrial DNA (peripheral blood mononuclear cells [PBMCs] and adipose tissue biopsies) and vascular measurements are performed. In addition, insulin sensitivity is measured in a subgroup of sixteen individuals by using a hyperinsulinemic euglycemic clamp and performing microvascular measurements. The aim of the study is to obtain prospective insight into the occurrence of various aspects of metabolic adverse events on the one hand and to compare an NRTI-containing therapy with an NRTI-sparing therapy on the other hand. The hypothesis is that in the NRTI-sparing arm, less metabolic and vascular changes are observed than in the NRTI containing regimen.

By RICHARD SHAWSun Advocate publisher
The energy industry may be big on money and big on exploration, but they are also big on family as well.
On Thursday night, at the annual Southeastern Utah Energy Producers Association dinner the group gave it's highest honor to an entire family of coal miners; the Palacios family of East Carbon.
With over 200 years of mining experience between them, Joseph, John (many people call him "Smoke"), Manuel, Pete and Robert stood on the stage and accepted the association's Lifetime Industry Achievement Award.
"They are a great family," said Western Energy Training Center industry coordinator Sam Quigley who introduced them to the crowd of about 200 people on hand. "They are the kind of family that has made the energy industry work."
The five brothers were also joined by a son, Gregg, who has also been in the mining business.
The second recipient of the same award was Mike Dmitrich, known to most in the area as a state senator, but who is also a stalwart in the energy industry. He was introduced by his cousin and Carbon County Commissioner, Mike Milovich.
All received a crafted award made by the Prazen Studios in Carbonville. The statuettes were created by Gary Prazen and Danny Blanton.
The event was also supposed to feature addresses by Congressman Jim Matheson and WETC director Steven Burge. However, Matheson got hung up in Washington D.C. on some important legislation and Burge had a death in the family so neither could be there.
However, Utah Mining Association President David Litvin did address the crowd and reminded people how important the energy industry is to our way of life.
"As far as I am concerned there is no reason every permit for every mining or drilling operations should not be approved," he told the audience. "There are challenges to the way we do business, but in actuality, we are the ones that protect the environment with our clean and sound operations."
The evening was also a time to remember the nine miners that lost their lives in the Crandall Canyon Mine this past summer as well. At the beginning of the evening a slide show of the miners with their names emblazoned across the screens were shown in remembrance. The crowd also took a minute of silence for the miners and their families.

Session Timer
I use sessions to track the users' actions on my web site, pluss the
members name are listed on my web site on a log status bar. The
problem is that if the users do not log out correctly, their user
name will be showing up on the log status bar after they have closed
their browser. The correct way to log out of my web site is to click
the log out option so the script will remove their name from the
status bar. What I need to figure out is to make a timer which will
delete their active status after, say 30 minutes.
Every page I have use session_start() and I register the user session
variable as $valid_user.
I have a table which I call logstatus. When the user log into the
web site the $valid_user variable value put their username into the
logstatus table, and when the user log out, the $valid_user variable
remove the value from this table.
How can I make a script to
remove the users from this table after 30 minutes when the users do
not log out correctly?
Thanks for any help.

FORT DRUM The posts 3rd Brigade Combat Team on Friday showed off the new communications technology it will use for a potential future deployment in Afghanistan.
The brigades Capability Set 13 communication technology, which it fielded in August, helps track soldier movements and increase connectivity in remote areas of places such as Afghanistan.
I can be moving around the battlefield, and I could get all of my team leaders up on a conference call while we are moving so we can share all the information and share what were seeing in real time, said Col. Samuel E. Whitehurst, the brigades commander.
In past deployments, he said, such information could take several hours or days to get from the field to brigade-level leadership.
The technology was displayed during a media event Friday as a part of the postwide Mountain Peak exercise.
In addition to seeing the new gear, software and vehicles, reporters toured the brigades tactical operations center and the ranges where combat drills were being planned.
The brigade is preparing to deploy later this year, though it has not received official orders.
Soldiers could be seen with smartphone-like devices attached to their uniforms. The apparatus can be used to send voice, text and email messages, along with photos, to senior leaders.
Its like the Garmin in your car, except you can text with it and see where everybody else is, said Maj. Graham D. Wood, the brigades communications officer.
He said the technology gives soldiers an essentially limitless range whereas in the past, limited reception could negatively affect their movements.
The combined mobile satellite and radio technology also could prove helpful to American forces attached to Afghan military units as overall force levels are reduced during the next year.
My ability to take the information that Im hearing from my team leaders, share it with my Afghan partners, they can then correspondingly help confirm or deny that information and share what theyre seeing to me, Col. Whitehurst said. I think thats one of the most critical things as we go forward into Afghanistan here over the next year.
This week has seen the first full use of the technology, Col. Whitehurst said, after limited tests in the brigades motor pool and at the Spartan Peak exercise last month. The brigade is the second in the Army to use the gear since it was issued, after the 10th Mountain Divisions 4th Brigade Combat Team, Fork Polk, La.
Brigade leaders have said the local training will help them get ready for a rotation this summer at the Joint Readiness Training Center, Fort Polk.
The posts Mountain Peak exercise runs until Wednesday.

By RICHARD SHAWStaff reporter
One of four traffic accidents in Price Canyon reported to the Utah Highway Patrol on Tuesday morning claimed the life of a Texas man.
Douglas Corsino, 34 of Dallas, TX. was reportedly driving a 1995 Chevrolet pickup westbound when the truck veered off U.S. Highway 6 at about 5:23 a.m. on April 16.
The Texas motorist's Chevy pickup truck left the roadway at milepost 212.3, located approximately two miles east of Soldiers Summit.
The roadways were slick and icy and snow was falling at the time of the single-vehicle accident, according to law enforcement authorities investigating the fatal incident.
"He was just traveling too fast for the existing conditions," indicated UHP Trooper Jason Marshall in a later interview.
According to Marshall, the Chevy pickup truck rolled one and one-half times after leaving the highway, partially ejecting Corsino.
The Dallas resident was purportedly not wearing a seatbelt at the time of the traffic incident.
The victim succumbed to torso injuries incurred in the accident, according to law enforcement officials.
The driver was apparently found sitting on the ground by the truck some time after the accident by two passersby from Ogden, Elizabeth Sarr and Amie Young.
The women tried to make Corsino comfortable and Sarr talked to the Dallas man while Young attempted to flag down passing motorists for assistance.
The two Ogden residents had cell phones with them Tuesday morning, but the telecommunication devices wouldn't work in the area of the canyon where the fatal accident occurred.
"One man stopped and said he would go to the gas station at the summit and call, but no one came," explained Sarr during an interview on Tuesday after the fatal accident.
"We covered him up (with a sleeping bag) and he talked to me for awhile, but then he started breathing hard and he passed out," added Sarr.
The women said it took almost half an hour before they could to get a second motorist to stop. The motorist was a truck driver who called for help on a CB radio.
The women tried to revive Corsino, but the Texas man reportedly stopped breathing not long before the first law enforcement officer arrived at the accident scene.
"When the officer arrived, he told us the man was dead," stated Sarr through the tears of relating the incident. "We just couldn't get anyone to stop and help us. I couldn't believe it."
The other traffic mishaps that occurred along the canyon roadway on Tuesday morning were all non-injury accidents.
One of the traffic-related incidents reportedly involved a drivers education vehicle from Carbon High School.
Corsino was the fourth fatality occurring on U.S. 6 between Soldiers Summit and Price since the first of the year.

We make it easy to find the Z-Chain that's perfect for your vehicle. Find your vehicle's tire size on the sidewall. Check the size (see chart below to learn how), and call us at 800-953-0814. Each set of two Z-Chains comes with a convenient storage container. One-year warranty.
Shur-Grip Z-ChainsThese reliable, easy-to-use traction cables fit most passenger car applications. They work with anti-lock brakes, traction control, all-wheel drive (AWD) and other electronically-monitored control systems. For light trucks, order Super Z Truck Chains.
Low-Profile Z-ChainsDesigned for larger wheel and tire combinations, these cables require only 6.3 mm (1/4") of operating clearance--less than half the space needed by most cables or chains. For cars, choose the Super Z6. For trucks and SUV's, choose the Super Z8.
Heavy-Duty Z-Chains
If icy, snowy roads are a wintertime fact of life where you live, these are the Z-Chains to choose. These tough, long-lasting traction cables will help you get where you have to go in even the harshest everyday road conditions.
Shur-Grip Z is designed to meet the everyday traction product needs of the average consumer. This traction cable is available to fit most passenger car applications. Super Z Truck Chains feature the same design and fit light truck tire sizes.
Finally, there's a winter traction aid designed to work with today's larger wheel and tire combinations. Designed to require only 6.3 mm (1/4") of operating space in the critical inner sidewall area of the tire--less than half the space needed by most cable chains or tire chains. Choose the Super Z6 for passenger cars, or the Super Z8 for truck and SUV tire sizes.
For more than a decade, Z-Chain has been the winter traction product choice for police, fire, ambulance and other professional fleets throughout North America. Z-Chain offers fast installation, aggressive traction performance and extreme durability.
For your safety (and the safety of others), tire chains are a must if you have to deal with treacherous winter driving conditions. Here are a few tips to help you make the right decision.
Fender ClearanceClearance is an important factor in selecting chains. Many of today's vehicles have limited clearance around the wheels and using any traction aids can cause damage. For any vehicle manufactured since 1980, it's a good idea to check your owner's manual for clearance issues. It's also important to note that if your current tires are larger than the original equipment tires, you may have additional clearance issues not noted in the manual.
InstallationTire chains should always be installed on the drive tires. For front-wheel drive vehicles, mount them on the front wheels. For rear-wheel drive vehicles, mount them on the rear wheels. If you're not sure what your vehicle is, consult your owner's manual, your dealership or your tire dealer. To ensure your car handles as normally as possible with chains mounted, it's preferable to install chains on all four tires. Owners of 4WD or AWD vehicles should refer to their owner's manuals for placement advice.
Driving with ChainsAt no point should you exceed 30 mph with chains on your tires.
ABS/AWDHaving ABS is certainly helpful, but that's no guarantee of safe winter traction. Traction aids are still strongly recommended for vehicles with ABS. Likewise, all-wheel drive vehicles will obviously have better forward traction on slippery roads than their two-wheel drive counterparts, but braking will be risky without a set of chains on all four tires.
Reading Your TireTo help you select the correct chains for your vehicle, we'll need to know your tire size. Let's say your tire sidewall contains the designation "P225/50R15." What does that mean?
PThe "P" indicates the tire is for passenger vehicles. On trucks, you may see an "LT" in this space, which means "Light Truck."
175This three-digit number gives the width of the tire's tread in millimeters. The larger the number, the wider the tire. This is an important factor in selecting a tire chain, due to potential clearance issues explained above. This tire's tread width measures 175 mm from edge to edge.
65This two-digit number, known as the aspect ratio, gives the tire's ratio of height to width. Numbers of 70 or lower indicate a short sidewall for improved steering response and better overall handling on dry pavement. The "65" indicates that this is a low-profile tire.
RThe "R" stands for radial. Radial ply construction of tires has been the industry standard for the past 20 years.
15This two-digit number is the wheel or rim diameter in inches. If you change your wheel size, you will have to purchase new tires to match the new wheel diameter. These are 15" wheels.
M+SIf you see an "M+S" or "M/S" designation on your tire; that indicates that the tire has some mud and snow capability. Most radial tires have these markings; hence, they have some mud and snow capability. It's not a factor in selecting chains, but it's good to know.
Before you call AutoSport, take a pen and pad out to your vehicle and write down your tire sizes. Then, when your AutoSport Customer Service Representative asks you what your tire size is, you'll be able to confidently reply, "They're P225/50R15's." And we'll be able to help you pick the perfect traction aid for your winter driving. Shop well and drive safely!

CANTON - The Stockholm man who occupied the trailer property where the bodies of an elderly couple were discovered has been jailed on welfare fraud charges.
Robert Bartlett Jr., 42, of 733 May Road, was charged Monday night by state police with three counts of first-degree offering a false instrument for filing and one count of third-degree welfare fraud, all felonies.
He was taken from Claxton-Hepburn Medical Center, Ogdensburg, where he was undergoing a mental evaluation, to Fowler Town Court for arraignment before Judge Paul M. Lamson. He was sent to the St. Lawrence County jail, Canton, on $20,000 cash bail.
Two weeks ago, an investigation into possible welfare fraud turned into a search for the bodies of 82-year-old Betty D. Babcock and her 84-year-old husband, Alvin S. The bodies were exhumed from the May Road property on March 21 and 24 and positively identified as those of the Babcocks.
Relatives of the Babcocks have said Mr. Bartlett used to live with the couple. The investigation into the deaths continues, District Attorney Mary E. Rain said Monday night.

Sunday Morning Rumor Mill - Tuesday Night Edition
Ah, the Sunday Morning Rumor Mill. The moment of the week in which everyone reads items from around the MMA world that could potentially be true, but reside in the realm of 'rumors.' If we all weren't still replaying Cung Le's KO over Rich Franklin on Sunday morning, this installment of the SMRM would have come much earlier. Instead, you're getting the Tuesday Night Edition delivered directly to your door -- or computer monitor. Whichever comes first. Enjoy.
- It's rumored that Dana White told Roy Nelson the editing of this season of TUF wouldn't portray him in a good light.
- In the past two months, a fighter was pulled from the main card of a large MMA promotion because he had a 'relationship' with a female employee of a relatively famous MMA gym.
- The pictures of EA Sports UFC that have been floating around the internet are fake.
- Michael Bisping has been approached by a major music label to produce music under the moniker 'DJ Bisping.'
- Bob Sapp plans to actually train for a large MMA bout in the first quarter of 2013 and then retire from the sport. It's rumored that he's looking at another fight against Ernesto Hoost.
- As ironic as it is, certain members of the Nevada State Athletic Commission smoke marijuana.
- There's been a pretty heavy rumor floating around that Glory/DREAM are making a bid to acquire ONE FC. I've tried contacting both parties -- no response.
- EA Sports UFC will also simultaneously launch with an iPhone/iPad version of the upcoming game.
- More than a few agents that represent Hollywood stars have tried to 'steal' Ronda Rousey away from her current management team. Although, I'm sure this happens quite often in MMA.
