JENNIFER HUDSON will be front-and-center in a Chicgao coutrtoom, as proceedings open in the murder trial of WILLIAM BALFOUR who stands accused of murdering her mother, brother and nephew three years ago.
Former O.J. Simpson attorney Gerald Uelmen told AP Hudson should keep a calm, stoic demeanor when she's in attendance, lest there could be serious complications in the legal process.
"Jurors may be watching her rather than testifying witnesses, and they could be influenced by how she reacts," Uelmen said.
"She would be well advised not to engage in any facial expressions or outbursts. That could be grounds for a mistrial."
A lot of 150 potential jurors (who filled out a 26-page questionnaire last week) will be directly questioned about their familiarity with Hudson and her projects, from her ascension to stardom on American Idol [2], to her Oscar-winning turn in Dreamgirls to her endorsement deal with Weight Watchers.
Questions the would-be jurors can expect are: if they've ever seen Hudson in any films; if they've ever seen her in concert; if they have any ties to the various brands she endorses; and how much media they've watched or read pertaining to the singer in the aftermath of the 2008 killings.
The idea behind the inquisition is to eliminate any jurors whose devotion to Hudson would hinder their ability to come to an unbiased decision in regards to Balfour.
The jurors will submit their responses to lawyers for the prosecution and defense, and Cook County Judge Charles Burns, who's mandated their identities be kept secret until after a verdict is renedered.
Balfour faces counts of murder, aggravated kidnapping and home invasion in the October 24, 2008 deaths of Darnell Hudson Donerson, 57; Jason Hudson, 29; and Julian King, 7,RadarOnline.com reported

X-MEN: APOCALYPSE Coming In 2016 Subscribe to ClevverMovies: http://bit.ly/clevvermovies The holiday surprises are coming early this year for X-Men Fans! Bry…
about fucking time they brought in apocalypse
Okay, Bryan Singer and Fox can no longer dick around with this one. The
Apocalypse storyline began in the X-Factor comic book, not the X-Men comic
book, and both Scott Summers/Cyclops and Jean Grey were central characters
in the X-Factor/Apocalypse/Mister Sinister storyline, so enough with the BS
and bring Cyclops and Jean Grey back already!
It's about fucking time Hollywood brought Apocalypse in the X-men Movie
Franchise, he's was the fucking best villain in the X-Men Comics!!!!!!!!!
John Goodman to play apocalypse.
It's bout time someone else got to be the baddy in those films. I always
suspected that they might have filmed 2 movies in Montreal.
2:39 Really? Why not do this for newer stories with newer characters and
newer worlds and newer possibilities?
Thumbs up if you think Apocalypse is better than Darkseid……….
I am so excited for this movie. I ordered the complete Age of Apocalypse
graphic novel. I've also played X-Men Legends: Age of Apocalypse back in
the day. So I am ready for this movie.
Sorry X men 3 was based off the dark pheonex saga
change everyone already ~_~ new actors please FFS
Great good to see another X-Men film on the way in the next few years
I am as excited as a penguin getting fucked by a polar bear. Do we really
need another Jewood prick's interterpretation of the comics glory on this
one. Follow the fucking storyline, A, Fire the screenplay pricks and let
the vision of the artists that you are ripping off have a swing at the
screen play. BECAUSE they already did it right in the comics 20 fucking
years ago. And way better.
It's nice to see that Singer seems to be on the same page that almost
everyone wants the X-Men story to go (namely bringing in Apocalypse). This
is just a theory in my head so take it with a grain of salt. I think the
events of DOFP will lead to a change in the timeline where Apocalypse's
tomb will be discovered and opened. Maybe the tomb is discovered by
Nathaniel Essex and as a reward for awakening him Apocalypse turns Essex
into Mr. Sinister. They collaborate a plan to genetically "purify" the
world which will be the central conflict of the next X-Men film. The
fallout from that conflict could allow for the re-emergence of the Dark
Phoenix (properly this time) and possibly lead to the Shi'ar Empire getting
involved. Sorry I had to get that off my chest. ^_^;
Looks a lot like the plot of the animated series "Wolverine and the X-Men".
First Days of Future Past" then "Age of Apocalypse".
Next logical step is the "Dark Phoenix-Saga", isn't it?
I want to see Magneto show his true power level and kill Apocalypse like he
did in the comics. That was just so totally cool. Apocalypse was so
disappointed to find out he was not the fittest after all.
Could be Days Of Future Present. Reminds me of "Wolverine and the X-Men"
Should have already been working on interwoven movies.
sooo? what is Apocalypse's power?
Apocalypse,Darkseid, and Thanos all look alike
What about deadpool for 2016?!
Nate grey and sinister better play a big role!
Faith in Singer: Renewed.
Let me guess, given Fox's track record it might be called Wolverine: The
Age of Apocalypse
professor x gonna die….forreal this time
So exited for this movie pkease bring back the origina cast back. And take
my money
How can there be a Fantastic Four reboot, WHEN FOX HASN'T EVEN BEGUN
SHOOTING FOR IT YET?! By the way things are looking, Fox will lose the
Fantastic Four to Marvel, where they'll be made into a movie the right way.
I would prefer an onslaught movie
We just need superman v dooms day now
Please tell me Hugh Jackman will be back for this movie
Fantastic Four should be in the spider-man universe. It doesn't make sense
for them being in the same as x-men and it's way too crowded in both MCU
and the x-men CU. Spider-man and the FF have been linked with each other
since ASM #1 and when the human torch died he even joined them (not saying
he should in the movies)
This is it the apocalypse
WOW! I'm really freaking excited and I can't wait. Apocalypse will be the
ultimate big baddie for the X-MEN and I can't wait to see how the X-MEN
will defeat him.
i want to see deadpool in the movie
XMen Apocalypse…Hell Yeah…
Can't Wait
I'm excited!
i know nothing about the comics but i do love the movies! because i come
from sweden i cant read them :I
If there's an Apocalypse, there should be a Cyclops….
Sounds great! However with how many comic movies are flooding the scene, by
2020, we're going to be fed up with it!
This makes me sick seeing a person clearly not intrested in comics reading
que cards about something that i read growing up. Get some one who is
intrested rather that a "reporter"
is every movie coming out these days gonna be age of …….
I can only wonder who would play APOCALYPSE
so excited!
Oooh i wont i Wont
Vin Diesel should be Apocalypse
Oh damn,…Apocalypse with a cape…looks pretty sick…i like it…
Then the next movie after this would have to be X-Men: Onslaught.
Now we're talking! God bless Bryan Singer! Love! :)
Okay, that's great news. Even better if you put in the characters we all
want to see in this new film. Namely Gambit and Nightcrawler. People love
them and they've only appeared in one film each, so the guys over at marvel
need to put them in.

Washington state parks, national parks offer free entry for National Get Outdoors Day
June 7, 2012
By Warren Kagarise
NEW — 8 a.m. June 7, 2012
Forget the Discover Pass.
Washington state parks, alongside national parks, offer free entry Saturday for National Get Outdoors Day, a chance to experience outdoor recreation areas at no cost.
So, visitors headed to Lake Sammamish and Squak Mountain state parks in the Issaquah area do not need a Discover Pass to enter. Similarly, the entrance fee to Mount Rainier and Olympic national parks — and all other national parks in Washington and from coast to coast — is waived.
Washington boasts more than 100 developed state parks, from majestic Deception Pass State Park to the old-growth forest of Lewis & Clark State Park.
The state also hosts 13 national park sites under National Park Service administration.
National Get Outdoors Day is a collaboration among state and federal agencies, nonprofit organizations and the recreation industry to encourage healthy, active outdoor fun at sites across the United States.
The next free entry day for national parks is Sept. 29, National Public Lands Day.

Monday April 15, 2013Florida Baseball Travels To Fort Myers On Tuesday To Face FGCU
Gainesville, Fla.
Gainesville, Fla.
Riding a season-high five-game winning streak, Florida (19-18) will head to Fort Myers on Tuesday for its fourth meeting of the season against FGCU (20-12). The Gators and Eagles will play at Hammond Stadium, the Minnesota Twins spring training home that is also used by the Fort Myers Miracle minor league club. Game time is 6:30 p.m.
Jeff Cardozo and Adam Schick will call the action for the Gator IMG Sports Network. Live audio and stats will be available on GatorZone.com and fans can also follow updates on @GatorZoneBB, the official Twitter account of the Gator baseball program.
The Gators notched a weekend sweep of No. 8 South Carolina (3-2, 4-3, 14-5). It marked only the fourth time in school history that Florida swept South Carolina in a regular-season series and the first time since 2009. UFs total of 11 wins over top-25 teams leads the SEC and is four more than any other league squad.
Sophomore right-hander Johnny Magliozzi (East Milton, Mass.) (3-1, 2.13) saved the first two wins over the Gamecocks, both by a run. Senior Vickash Ramjit (Miami, Fla.) was 6-for-9 (.667) in the series against South Carolina, scored a team-best six runs and became the first UF player to have two doubles in the same inning since Billy Minnis against Alabama on March 19, 1989, when he had a pair of two-baggers during the 10-run sixth-inning outburst in the finale. Ramjit leads the Orange and Blue with a .377 average in SEC play.
Named the SEC Freshman of the Week on Monday afternoon, Harrison Bader (Bronxville, N.Y.) hit .444 (4-for-9) in the Gators three victories over the Gamecocks, with a team-leading four RBI and was 2-for-2 on the basepaths. UF exploded for 10 runs on eight hits in the sixth inning to break a 4-4 stalemate en route to a 14-5 victory over USC on Saturday. Florida has taken eight of its last 10 contests to move over the .500 plateau for the first time since Feb. 20, when it was 3-2.
Bader delivered a two-run, two-out single in the eighth as Florida rallied from a 3-1 deficit in the inning to notch a 4-3 triumph on Friday night. With the win, the Gators reached the .500 mark for the first time since March 9 and clinched their second SEC series win of the season. Sophomore Casey Turgeon (Palm Harbor, Fla.) (2-for-4) started UFs decisive rally with a base-hit up the middle, sophomore Justin Shafer (Lake Wales, Fla.) delivered a single into center field for two runners aboard with one down and Ramjit walked to load the bags. Sophomore Josh Tobias (Greensboro, N.C.) then narrowed the gap to 3-2 with an RBI grounder that brought home Turgeon. Bader moved the Gators in front by slicing a 1-1 offering into left field that brought across Shafer and Ramjit to give the hosts a 4-3 advantage. With Gamecocks on second and third base in the ninth, Magliozzi had a game-ending strikeout to nail down his eighth save in nine opportunities.
Florida threw out sophomore TJ Costen diving back to third base for the final out to seal a 3-2 victory on Thursday night. With Costen on second base and two down, senior Chase Vergason had punched a single into right field off of Magliozzi. As Costen was coming around third base, he slipped as the relay throw came in from redshirt freshman right fielder Cory Reid (Port St. Lucie, Fla.) to sophomore catcher Taylor Gushue (Boca Raton, Fla.), who fired a bullet to Tobias, who prevented Costen from reaching the bag and ended the game. Junior RHP Jonathon Crawford (Okeechobee, Fla.) (2-5, 4.17) yielded two runs over 6.2 innings and had five strikeouts to pick up his second win in league play.

Cindy Becker, a pre-K teacher at the Wicomico County Early Learning Center, reads a book to part of her class Thursday. Reading to young children is an important part of increasing their vocabularies.
- Filed Under
Are you wondering whether to enroll your 3- or 4-year-old in a prekindergarten program, or is someone you know looking for answers about early childhood education? You are not alone. Wicomico County offers a number of pre-K programs, including one for 3-year-olds. During the 2006-07 school year, more than 20,000 at-risk prekindergarteners benefited from such classes.
Many American children also attend privately operated pre-K programs that range from basic group child care to expensive private-school pre-K programs designed to set them on a track toward admission to the best educations their parents can buy.
Early childhood education may be one of the most misunderstood - and in some cases, undervalued - pieces of the public school puzzle. Young children learn by playing, making an effective prekindergarten classroom a very different scenario from the typical elementary school setting. But their play is directed in purposeful ways to help them acquire the skills and knowledge needed to help them succeed in coming years.
Researchers are learning that preschool-age children living in low-income homes may begin to fall behind at an earlier age than once realized. Toddlers and preschoolers are, by nature and design, like little sponges, absorbing new words and phrases faster than they can figure out how to express them. But when they live in homes where parents or caretakers do not talk to them extensively, or where the adults in charge lack adequate language skills and vocabulary, they often begin to fall behind their peers before they are out of diapers.
The average 3-year-old from a low-income family may have heard 10 million words in his lifetime, which sounds like a lot. Compared, however, to the 20 million words heard by a typical working-class family or the 30 million words heard by a 3-year-old whose parents are professionals and the size of the gap becomes clearer. By age 4, that gap may grow to 13 million for the low-income child versus 45 million for the child of a professional couple.
It would be difficult for any child to make up for that deficiency. Given the importance of vocabulary and reading to virtually everything else he or she will be expected to learn, the importance of early intervention is obvious.
Today's early childhood education experiences are designed primarily to help these youngsters enter kindergarten as well-prepared to begin formal education as their peers from middle- and upper-class homes.
Pre-K education is on its way to becoming the new kindergarten, which is, in turn, morphing into the new first grade. This has parents - and taxpayers - asking a lot of questions.
? Should pre-K be a half or whole day? Why don't public school systems offer preschool for all children?
? Why should taxpayers pick up the tab for what looks from the outside like ordinary daycare for low-income or immigrant families, when other parents must struggle to pay for licensed child care or pre-K programs when they return to work?
? How important is pre-K education? If it really is that important, shouldn't pre-K attendance be mandatory for everyone?
? Who benefits most from public school pre-K programs? And what role should parents play in their children's early learning?
? What resources are available to help Lower Shore parents of preschool students?
? What is meant by high-quality pre-K education? What special training do early childhood teachers receive, and why should they be held to higher standards for certification and continuing education?
? What do taxpayers receive in return for their investment in pre-K education?
? How does a pre-K classroom differ from a kindergarten or first-grade classroom?
? Can preschool education really overcome the disadvantages of living in a home where education is not valued?
? Why can't we just let kids be kids until it's time to start kindergarten or first grade?
The Daily Times is planning a series of editorials that, along with commentaries from early childhood experts in the community, will examine some of these questions and provide readers - both parents of preschoolers as well as taxpayers who do not have children in the school system - with insight and answers to these and other questions about the importance and value of the early childhood classroom experience.

In a future America ripped apart by war and rebranded Panem, a teenage girl called Katniss Everdeen (Jennifer Lawrence) takes her sisters place in the annual Hunger Games – where 24 young people from across the nation battle to the death in an arena for the entertainment of the Capitol.
In case you are somehow unaware, The Hunger Games is an adaptation of the first in a trilogy of novels by the American author Suzanne Collins – a series that has sold in excess of 27 million copies since it first appeared in 2008. Collins herself worked on the screenplay with co-writer and director Gary Ross and the pair has assembled a sterling cast including Oscar nominee Lawrence as well as Stanley Tucci, Donald Sutherland and Woody Harrelson for this post apocalyptic tale.
As a self professed fan of the books, mainly because they buck the trend of teen novels by actually being readable, I was unusually positive about The Hunger Games. Collins' novels are simply but effectively crafted and the world is unusually bleak and lived in, while the trials the main characters go through are particularly weighty for material aimed at a young audience. The solid crew and well above average casting also hinted at the potential of the production and everything from the promotional material to the early reviews have been nothing short of tremendous.
So it should come as no surprise that The Hunger Games is a strong film, sometimes a great one, and certainly goes some way towards redefining the expectations of those who commonly expect their favourite novels to be unfairly hobbled on their way to the big screen. But it also has its share of problems, some which will be more obvious to fans and others problematic for newcomers.
The Hunger Games is a long film, clocking in just a little shy of two and a half hours. It's no bad thing, I often wish adaptations had a little more meat on their narrative bones but unfortunately, even at this length, the experience feels like little more than a summary at times. Vast swathes of plot are left out and while this is a necessary part of the adaptation process, the excisions do a disservice to fans and newcomers alike, particularly as they tend to focus more on the moments of emotion. Those familiar with the books will have an easier time of it, filling in the gaps with their own impressions and lending added weight to the important relationships but they'll still feel bereft. And those experiencing the story for the first time may find themselves confused by the speed of certain alliances and unwilling to buy some of the films more significant moments.
Even another 15 minutes would have made a huge difference to the emotional weight of The Hunger Games, especially as the end game approaches. Perhaps it's something we'll see on the home video release.
That being said, the film is still an effective action drama which captures the grim lives of the people of Panem wonderfully in a rather fleetfooted opening in District 12. Here, director Ross introduces us to the films handheld, almost documentary style camerawork. It's especially effective in the near monochrome wilds of the opening scenes, recalling nothing so much as Lawrence's own Winter's Bone (read the review) and providing a neat contrast to the scenes of technology and splendour once the film makes the move to the Capitol.
Suzanne Collins makes plenty of references to the over the top fashion and décor of the Capitol dwellers and costume designer Judianna Makovsky and production designer Philip Messina go for broke bringing that vision to life. The clothes are garish and often bizarre without crossing over into the distractingly ridiculous too often while the locations are eye catching and strange and, in my opinion, a brave take on the author's original ideas.
The marketing campaign for The Hunger Games has wisely kept the games themselves off screen to date and the film also manages to keep them from audiences for over half of its running time. When Katniss and her 23 adversaries finally take to their booby trapped podiums, there's a palpable sense of excitement and dread, the film lingering on a full one minute countdown as we prepare for the games to finally begin.
You may have heard that the film was cut locally to secure a 12A rating, mostly digitally removing excessive blood, but rest assured The Hunger Games remain about as vividly drawn as you'd like for its target audience. There's no avoiding the fact that, in the end, this is a story about the death of almost two dozen near children and the kills themselves are brutal and often shocking. But it's all for naught without the right amount of emotional connection and one significant death (fans will know what I'm referring to) failed to reach the expected emotional crescendo. This was partly to do with some haphazard editing but also, fundamentally, because we simply don't have enough time to connect fully with these characters. It's also here that the handheld camerawork loses its lustre, allowing little more than a glimpse of significant action moments. It's likely a way to avoid too much on screen violence but I was soon longing for a steadycam.
The film may not quite deliver on its potential but there's little doubt that the casting is next to perfect. Lawrence shines as Katniss, playing younger and less self assured than she usually does and managing to convince as a country girl totally out of her depth in this amazing new world. My favourite moment featured her and the just plain perfect Stanley Tucci, who plays ageless TV host Caesar Flickerman. In an interview before the Games, the older pro draws the frightened young woman in with kind words, making her forget the crowd nearby, while Lawrence responds with a performance that melts from awkward to unselfconsciously charming. It's sublime.
Most of the rest of the cast performs admirably, especially a memorable Elizabeth Banks as an extremely made up Effie, a fun turn from the rather too young and healthy looking Woody Harrelson and a much expanded role for Donald Sutherland's character. The only real dud is Lenny Kravitz's Cinna, a shame for a role that will become pivitol, and young Josh Hutcherson (read our interview with the young star) does what he can though can't match Lawrence for presence.
Speaking of Sutherland's extra scenes, Collins and Ross have also added material to this version of The Hunger Games, generally to great effect. The film relies on no narration from Katniss' character, instead presenting us with a wider canvass through scenes which show Sutherland's reactions to the games and several moments in the nerve centre of the event itself – a mass of wonderful holographic controls and devious devices – while also providing us with fantastic running commentary from Tucci and Toby Jones. The less restrictive narrative helps to give you a sense of how the wider world of Panem works and also clues in audience members to events which might be significant in future episodes.
The Hunger Games is undoubtedly an impressive take on the material and will no doubt be a treat for fans who are willing and able to fill in the narrative ellipses. For newcomers, it's a more difficult proposition – will the strong performances and vivid evocation of a future world be enough to keep them entertained? Or will they simply not buy the near instant relationships and frequent narrative conveniences which move the plot along. There's little doubt that The Hunger Games will be a box office smash and I'm happy to see a mature and finely crafted take on some worthy source material, perhaps Ross and co can join the dots a little better next time.

Release Date: 2010 |
Great review. I'd give it more of a 3.5 though.
Album Rating: 3.0thanks, and for anyone wonderring why im reviewing this so soon. theres a stream on there myspace.
Album Rating: 3.0good review. i thought this was ok, a high 3
Tracks like Catastrophic Hybridization are definitely a huge surprise; maturity in songwriting is no more present here.
I think you mean more present.
"The Reign of Supreme"
II: The Reign of Darkness
Album Rating: 3.0well not really. i was trying to say that maturity in songwriting was most present on that track. thats my mess up ill fix that now. and thanks for the other correction
agree the vocals are shite. They have matured into something respectable around him though. Good review.
Album Rating: 2.5between a 2 and a 2.5. It will probably end up a two when I get bored of the solos. Remarkable improvement though despite the vocalist.
Digging: Burning Down Alaska - Values & Virtues
Album Rating: 3.0See naturally i would of give this a 2.5, but i gave them an extra .5 because there older stuff was terrible and this is showing a massive improvement. In my book, they get points for stepping up.
I like the artwork...looks like Dan Seagrave's work?
Never was a fan of this band, but good review man.
Just some critique on the review:
Rewrite the first two paragraphs as one, and make it far more fluent. I understand what you're saying, but this whole review needs a lot of work in that department. Perhaps you could omit the quotes? They're unnecessary, and they make the review very informal, especially with all the profanity this review utilizes.
Merge the vocal paragraphs and keep it short. You should never spend two paragraphs saying, "the band rarely uses pig squeals now, but the vocal department is still nothing to be proud of. The growls assuage the intensity of the music rather than magnify it. This would be less of a problem had the vocalist not used his growl as a crutch." I said what you said in far less word space.
Keeping on the subject of length, you spend four paragraphs describing a song. Really? Was this necessary? No, it wasn't. You could have said, "Tracks like "Catastrophic Hybridization" are testaments to Annotations of an Autopsy's maturation as musicians. Breakdowns are not used as a crutch, even though the low vocals are. The lack of breakdowns has allowed the band to excite their audience. Evidence is shown with an opening melodic riff that evolves into a recurring, menacing guitar line. Annotations of an Autopsy also changes their musical ideas now, rather than toying with the same tedious idea over and over again."
Also, you need to put quotes around song titles and italicize album titles.
This is incorrect:
namely "Emptiness," "Catastrophic Hybridization, and "Into the Black Slumber."
Album Rating: 3.0well, i spent alot of time describing that song as an opportunity to describe the musicianship of the album. when you look at it as an overall synopsis of the album's sound and not a one track description, it makes more sense.
And i'm not a fan of writing overly formal in my reviews, i intentionally wrote like i did because i feel that writing formal makes it easier to communicate with the reader. Using a thesaurus doesn't make for a good review. I will take your advice in the paragraph construction
(lyrics about severely PMSing women "bleeding from every f'ing hole")
This is what they needed to what you said, stay valid in the metal scene, it just seems limp to me though
pretty good review dude, I'll pos. There are some small-ish problems though:
1) I agree with Rationalist that you shouldn't spend 3 paragraphs talking about one song. You said that the paragraphs about this song give a synopsis of the whole album, yet you contradict that in your second to last paragraph, where you list half of the album as "filler", but that song as one of the biggest highlights. In that sense, that song can't be a representative of the whole album if it's remarkably better than 90% of the rest
2) there = somewhere (in or at a place) they're = they are
There are countless instances in this review, where you have clearly meant "they are", but have written there instead.
3) your very last sentence reads a bit awkward, I'd correct that
Album doesn't really sound interesting, but the cover sure is kickass
This really sucks, they need to go back to the swamp thing vocals, that's the only good aspect they had.
^Hope your seriously trolling, AOAA have stepped their game up bigtime.
Good review, pos'd.
album is lame
Album Rating: 3.0kinda tight on time atm, so imma make all the suggested changed asap.
Honesty their last album was one of the worst albums i've ever heard so I'm a little reluctant to buy into this being any good.
It's much easier to read. However, there are several grammatical errors. "There" is a where where you are explaining where something is; "they're" is a contraction of they are. Semicolons are used to turn two sentences into one without a contraction (pretzels taste nice; they can be salty or sweet); commas are used where there is a contraction (pretzels taste nice, and they can be salty or sweet)*.
*You don't really need a comma there, but you see my point.
Album Rating: 3.03.0,3.5 = 3.25

TORONTO -- If Shane Victorino were in the National League like he'd been for his entire career to this point, he'd already be on the disabled list. National League teams who have to pinch-hit for a pitcher two or three times a night can't afford to play with a short bench the way the Victorino-less Red Sox have for the last week.
But because the Red Sox can afford to play with a short bench, Victorino has a chance to get back more than a week before he would have otherwise.
Victorino hasn't played since last week after experiencing back spasms twice in a four-day span. After two days of hitting in the cage on Tuesday and Wednesday, an improving Victorino will take batting practice on the field with the rest of the team on Thursday.
If all systems are go, he'll play Thursday night.. If he still needs another day, he's expected to play Friday in Texas.
"Every day the progression has gotten better, less and less pain," he said. "Every day it's gotten better. That's a positive for me. There hasn't been a setback. Obviously, that's the kind of stuff we need to focus on. I don't want to make this a five-month thing for me."
With Victorino out, Daniel Nava has played right field every day with Mike Carp and Jonny Gomes splitting time in left field -- and the Red Sox have run out to the best record in baseball.
"The team's excited," Victorino said. "I'm excited. It's been fun. I've had a lot of pom-poms cheering for these guys. I'm going to continue to do that."

Cat Cora's Mug Shot Released
By Wonderwall Editors
When "Iron Chef America" star Cat Cora was arrested on suspicion of DUI last month, she avoided an embarrassing mug shot because she was taken to a "sobering house," rather than to jail, before being released, MSNBC reports.
RELATED: Cat Cora's Wife Welcomes a Son!
By the time she returned to have her picture taken for police records eleven days later, she looked about as fresh and well-groomed as she does on the show.
RELATED: Best Celeb Mug Shots
Cora, who reportedly rear-ended another car before she was stopped by police in Santa Barbara, Calif., on June 17, blew a breath sample that showed a blood-alcohol level of more than twice the legal limit, according to TMZ.
RELATED: Worst Celebrity Drivers
The celebrity chef later issued a statement, apologizing for her lapse in judgment.
"I deeply regret my decision to drive that evening after my designated driver became unavailable," she said. "I learned a very important lesson from this experience and take full accountability for my actions. This will never happen again."

Because God Loves the World!
Doctrinal Statements
Our confession is the Baptist Faith and Message 2000. Within its broad boundaries, we also affirm A Statement of the Traditional Southern Baptist Understanding of God's Plan of Salvation—which is summarized below in the form of an acrostic spelling POINSETTIA. For a better understanding of the differences between Calvinists and Traditionalists, see our Theological Positions page.
Pursuit Unconditional
God desires all to be saved and has made a way of salvation in Christ for any person.
Own Guilt
Fallen man inherits a sinful nature but is condemned only because of his own sin.
Inclusive Atonement
The substitutionary atonement of Christ is effective and available for every person.
Natural Responsibility
God's grace takes all the initiative in saving souls. Man's free response is not a work.
Spontaneous Regeneration
Any who repent and believe are regenerated at that point, not before or apart from it.
Election Available
In election, God saves people without predetermining their souls for heaven or hell.
Transparent Foreknowledge
God's sovereign omniscience does not mean He causes human decisions about Jesus.
True Freedom
God gives to each person actual free will to accept or reject His call to salvation.
Indestructible Security
When one is saved, God promises to complete the process, sealing their eternal fate.
Almighty Gospel
As we share God's love, the gospel is the means of bringing any person to Christ.

Hermitage Plantation Inn
Nevis, St Kitts & Nevis
Friendly family-owned 18th century plantation inn with guest rooms in pretty gingerbread cottages and one of the island's best restaurants
Full of history, character and classic style, the Hermitage
Plantation Inn is known not only for its beautiful location on the
slopes of Mt. Nevis, but also for its amiable and sociable
hospitality. This alone makes it an ideal place for families, as
well as those seeking a romantic and private destination.
Here you'll find a hint of old Nevis: the Great House, built 250 years ago and said to be the oldest wooden house in the Caribbean, is filled with antiques, oriental rugs, a library, a veranda restaurant, a sun terrace and a well stocked bar.
The individual guest cottages, some with distant sea views, are scattered in the gardens - a botanist's dream. Mostly planted by the owner Maureen Lupinacci you'll find cocoa, mango and breadfruit trees, spider orchids, and sandpaper flowers. For animal lovers there are horses, dogs, rabbits, pigs, ducks, geese and even the occasional monkey wandering about. A freshwater swimming pool and tennis court are also on site and in room spa treatments are available.
Reviewed by Anita Naik
- Relaxed, friendly atmosphere - the Lupinaccis are great hosts who welcome children as well as romantics
- Steeped in history and West Indian charm: gingerbread cottages, polished wooden floors, huge four-poster beds, verandas with hammocks...
- Tropical rainforest, animals, horse riding and walking trails make it ideal for nature lovers
- Delicious cooking and fine rum punches
- Nearest good beach is a 15-minute drive away (there's a complimentary shuttle to the hotel's beach club and restaurant on Pinney's Beach)
- Not for those seeking glitz, nightlife, casinos or shopping - people come to Nevis and its plantation inns to get away from it all, unwind and do very little amid beautiful scenery.
The Hermitage appreciates life's finer things, from the elegant horse-drawn carriage rides to engaging conversation at the bar...Fodor'sHermitage Plantation Inn: Read more press reviews
