Kim Kardashian and Kanye West have wed in Florence, Italy.
The couple flew in separately from Paris, France, where they partied with family and friends on Friday night.
Reports suggest the newlyweds had planned to exchange vows at the Chateau de Versailles, but French law stood in their way as neither bride nor groom resides in the country.

Instead, they toured the grounds of the historic palace on Friday afternoon, before flying back to their base in Paris to host a pre-wedding cocktail party with a six-figure performance from Kardashian's favorite singer Lana Del Rey.
West was the first to arrive in Florence for the nuptials on Saturday morning. His bride and several guests touched down hours later.
Guests of the big event at the medieval Forte di Belvedere included John Legend and his wife Chrissy Teigen and "12 Years a Slave" director Steve McQueen, who started arriving as Andrea Bocelli's "Time to Say Goodbye" blasted out from loud speakers.
Noticeably absent from the festivities were Jay Z and Beyoncé, who took the weekend to vacation privately instead, but sent their congratulations via social media.
While the entertainment media went on high-alert to cover the nuptials – which, will hopefully last longer than the 72 days of Kardashian's last marriage – some outlets took a more cynical approach, including the New York Post, which printed this short wedding announcement:

The wedding party wasn't the only thing to arrive from Paris – the wedding's flowers made the trip too, with roses flown in from Belgium as well. Earlier plans were said to include a $160,000 yacht, but still no word on whether the ceremony included "fighter jets," as West had promised last year.
Meanwhile, bosses at Adidas chose the wedding day to launch their new 2014 World Cup soccer ad, which features music by Kanye West. The new commercial for "The Dream: All In or Nothing" features the rapper repeating the words "God Level" over footage of soccer superstars like Lionel Messi and Dani Alves.

How they come to put on so much weight in Dubai is a paradox that confuses many new expats here. You move to the UAE expecting that, what with the hot weather and an active, outdoor lifestyle, you'll lose weight. But, before you even celebrate your first "expativersary", you realise that – like everyone else – you've got an extra 10kg stashed under your belt.
It's called the "Dubai stone" and it's so common it's become a bit of a joke – a right of UAE expat passage, so to speak. Many people feel that it's so inevitable that they don't even bother fighting it – and the excessive drinking, the lavish brunches and the lazy expat lifestyles don't do much to help.
But the UAE's expats have now been given a health warning: Obesity specialist Dr Fuad Ahmed predicts that, within the next 10 years,… Read more

Philadelphia, PA (Sports Network) - Last year at this time, players like Chris
Sale and Yoenis Cespedes were thought of as "sleepers" in American League
fantasy baseball drafts.
Owners who drafted them now view those one-time sleepers as big-time keepers.
Let's take a crack at picking an AL fantasy starting lineup made up solely of
players who can possibly be obtained near the back end of drafts:
CATCHER - JASON CASTRO, HOUSTON: Once thought to be a top catching prospect,
Castro's development at the major-league level has been slowed by a torn ACL
that wiped out his entire 2011 campaign. In just 257 at-bats last year, he hit
.257 with six home runs and 29 RBIs.
If Castro can stay on the field and play a full season as a regular, something
like 12 homers and 60 RBIs would be a possibility, to go along with a
respectable batting average. A left-handed hitter, Castro will have to improve
his performance against southpaws (.113 batting average in those situations in
2012) to avoid a platoon.
He's not going to suddenly become Victor Martinez, but Castro has decent upside
and would be a good target in the final rounds of a draft or a good $1 pickup
in an auction.
FIRST BASE - JUSTIN SMOAK, SEATTLE: The key piece in the 2010 trade that sent
pitcher Cliff Lee to the Texas Rangers, Smoak has not delivered on his promise.
Entering his age-26 season, Smoak has career numbers of 47 homers, 154 RBIs and
a .223 average in 1,258 at-bats.
Smoak has a career OPS (on-base percentage plus slugging percentage) of just
.683, including a dismal .654 mark last season. Looking for a bright spot?
After returning from a brief stint in the minors last year, he closed out the
season with a .288 average and .850 OPS the rest of the way.
The acquisition of Kendrys Morales, who is expected to open the year as
designated hitter, could give Smoak a short leash with the starting first base
job. If you miss out on big sluggers in your draft, though, Smoak could be a
worthwhile gamble because you never know when the light switch might turn on
for him.
SECOND BASE - JEFF KEPPINGER, CHICAGO WHITE SOX: This is a player who
frequently gets overlooked, in part because he has never hit double-digit home
runs in a single season. Also, he's been a journeyman, with the White Sox being
his seventh major-league team in a career that began in 2004.
Slated to be Chicago's everyday third baseman, Keppinger is rebounding from a
broken leg he suffered in November. He won't likely deliver the kind of pop
you'd normally want from a third baseman, but he hit .325 in 385 at-bats for
Tampa Bay last season, and he has a career .288 average.
No, Keppinger won't hit for power and he won't run very much (12 steals in 701
career games), but he won't hurt your team, either. He'd make an excellent
late-round target because his versatility will be a godsend. He'll qualify at
first, second or third base in most leagues, which will give you great roster
flexibility when injuries inevitably affect your team.
SHORTSTOP - HIROYUKI NAKAJIMA, OAKLAND: It's always difficult to assess how a
player's game will translate when he leaves the Japanese League to come to the
majors, but Nakajima has been a solid and remarkably consistent all-around
player in Japan.
He has a combined .312 average and .867 OPS and has won a pair of Gold Gloves
during the past five years. Last season, he batted .311 with 13 homers, 74 RBIs
and seven steals. His average and ability to produce runs could make him make
him a sneaky top-10 shortstop in AL-only leagues, and he could even merit
middle infield consideration in a mixed league.
THIRD BASE - LONNIE CHISENHALL, CLEVELAND: The Indians last season had split
third base duties between Chisenhall and Jack Hannahan until the former
fractured his forearm in June. Chisenhall sat out from late June to mid-
September, so he was limited to 142 at-bats.
Now 24, Chisenhall has the third base job to himself, with Hannahan having
signed as a free agent with Cincinnati this offseason. A first-round draft pick
in 2008, Chisenhall has high upside. He could hit 20 homers and knock in a
decent number of runs in what looks like an improved Indians offense.
OUTFIELD - EMILIO BONIFACIO, TORONTO: Acquired in a blockbuster trade with the
Miami Marlins, Bonifacio entered the spring in a battle with free-agent signing
Maicer Izturis for the starting second base job. If Bonifacio wins and is the
starter for a full season, 40-50 stolen bases would be a possibility, if not a
Even if he doesn't win the starting gig, Bonifacio figures to be a super sub,
since he also can play all three outfield positions, as well as shortstop and
third base. He was 30-for-33 in stolen base attempts for Miami last year, doing
all that running while playing a mere 64 games.
Technically, Bonifacio could be considered No. 2 on the Blue Jays' depth chart
at six positions. Although playing time at second base seems the most likely,
it's also easy to imagine the Jays souring on incumbent center fielder Colby
Rasmus, who has been long on potential and short on results.
OUTFIELD - JUSTIN MAXWELL, HOUSTON: Since the Astros are newcomers to the AL -
and since they're likely to lose at least 100 games - many of their players
will be overlooked on draft day. Few are likely to be as wrongly overlooked as
Once a top Washington Nationals prospect, Maxwell was a late bloomer because of
a long injury history. Last season, though, he quietly broke out with 18 homers
and 53 RBIs in just 315 at-bats. Now, the downside: He batted just .229.
A career .217 hitter in 534 big-league at-bats, Maxwell isn't going to suddenly
become Tony Gwynn. In fact, he's most likely going to hurt your team's average.
In the last rounds of an AL-only draft, however, you won't find too many
players with the 20-25 home run potential that Maxwell possesses.
OUTFIELD - DARIN MASTROIANNI, MINNESOTA: Opportunity is perhaps the biggest
factor in major-league production and it looks like Mastroianni is going to be
given his chance to shine this season. At 27, he has compiled just 165 major-
league at-bats.
With great speed and almost no power to speak of, Mastroianni had been behind
two superior players with a similar skill set - Denard Span and Ben Revere.
This offseason, Span was traded to Washington and Revere was dealt to
Mastroianni, who stole 21 bases while being limited to 163 at-bats last season,
could end up being the Twins' starting center fielder and leadoff hitter. He
may prove to only be a true fantasy asset in the stolen base category, but he
could potentially put up a big-time total there.
DESIGNATED HITTER - LUKE SCOTT, TAMPA BAY: Every spring training, you always
hear those "He's in the best shape of his life" stories, and they can generally
be taken with a grain of salt. Still, here's a guess that Scott's optimism
about finally being 100 percent after 2011 shoulder surgery will result in a
return toward past form.
From 2008-10, Scott averaged 25 home runs and 71 RBIs. With Baltimore in 2011,
Scott had his season cut short by the aforementioned shoulder injury, and he
hit just .220 in 209 at-bats. With Tampa Bay last season, he hit.229 with 14
homers and 55 RBIs.
Scott isn't going to ever be a 30-homer, 100-RBI guy, but a late-round DH who
delivers something like the 25 homers and 71 RBIs he averaged during his pre-
shoulder surgery days would be a good late-round bargain.
STARTING PITCHER - BLAKE BEAVAN, SEATTLE: Another player the Mariners obtained
in the Lee trade to Texas, Beavan turned the corner in the second half of last
season. His full-season stats were not exceptional (an 11-11 record and 4.43
earned run average), but he went 8-5 with a 3.40 ERA and 1.16 WHIP (walks plus
hits per innings pitched) after the All-Star break.
You'd rather see a higher strikeout rate (a mere 67 in 152 1/3 innings), but
Beavan doesn't walk anyone, either. He issued just 24 bases on balls last year.
He also pitches half his games in an extreme pitchers' park, so there's plenty
of promise here, particularly if strikeouts aren't a category in your league.
RELIEF PITCHER - ERNESTO FRIERI, L.A. ANGELS: Can a guy who had 23 saves for a
contending team last season be drafted as a late-round sleeper? Perhaps Frieri
Although Frieri posted a solid 2.32 ERA and microscopic 0.99 WHIP last season,
the Angels signed free agent Ryan Madson to take over as the closer. Frieri
came into spring training expecting to be the eighth-inning guy.
Madson missed the entire 2012 season after Tommy John surgery, and he stopped
throwing for two weeks earlier this month because of soreness in the elbow.
He's back throwing again, but he may not be ready for the start of the regular
season. Should Madson miss any time, Frieri could take the job back and run
with it.

Beat picking up for area's music scene
Inside Ignition Music, Steve Martin flips on the radio, leans back in his chair and listens to a soulful songbird who serenades him through stereo speakers.
"I think people are connecting to the organic, authentic nature of music," he says, eyeing a pile of CDs stacked next to him. "People are starting to see that the synthesizers, pyrotechnics on stage and autotuned computer voices aren't what music is about."
A music maven among friends, Martin opened the record store in early February on Washington Street in downtown Goshen. His hope was to create a space where people can hear original music by emerging artists. This stems from his belief that Elkhart County is in the early stages of an arts revival.
One of the first signs of this reawakening that Martin picked up on was last summer when folk duet Whitehorse put on a free show for a First Friday event in Goshen. Singers Luke Doucet and Melissa McClelland set up on Washington Street, and at first the audience was small.
"Instead of people milling up, listening to a song or two and going on, I watched a crowd slowly build until there were 300 or 400 people just mesmerized by what was going on on stage," Martin recalled.
Whitehorse returned to Goshen in March to play Ignition Music's first in-house concert, but Martin learned early on that it's not easy for acts to travel from coast to coast. At an Americana Music Association conference in Nashville, Tenn., Martin met with tour managers and bands.
"They all told us the same thing," Martin said. "The economics of touring are terrible because the record labels can't front all of the costs of promoting, booking and covering traveling expenses of these bands. They said the ideal venue would be less than 200 seats, a music venue, not a bar and where this is working you have radio, retail and venue working together."
This is what Jason Samuel calls the "360 experience." Samuel is the general manager at Goshen College's radio station, 91.1 The Globe.
"For there to be success in this kind of a scene for these kinds of artists that aren't necessarily pop or mainstream, you need three things to happen, in my opinion," Samuel said. "You need to have a place to play, and not just any old room. It's got to have a good sound system and a good vibe. You need some sort of retail support, and then you need to have radio support. That's your base."
After those three elements comes the audience, the "lifeblood of the music scene," Samuel said.
Martin books shows at his store every two to three weeks. He said there are dozens of talented musicians in Elkhart County, and one day, he hopes to have them open for nationally touring acts at his record store.
Larger venues, like the Lerner Theatre in downtown Elkhart, report continued success in drawing big-name acts.
Lerner general manager David Smith is optimistic about the venue's future. He said the theater's opening, the growing popularity of the Elkhart Jazz Festival and downtown redevelopment have all contributed to the area's blossoming music scene. Country legend Willie Nelson played a sold-out show at the theater in April, and icon Merle Haggard will perform in August.
"We've seen a nice increase in the caliber of musical artists over the past year, and I expect that number to grow," Smith said.
The Lerner, which celebrates its first anniversary this month, works with promoters to bring artists to the theater. The venue also works closely with theater company Premier Arts to produce between five and seven musicals each year.
There seems to be a growing appreciation for entertainment, Smith said.
"In our economy, the disposable income of individuals has diminished, so opportunities to get out for an evening, to experience arts and entertainment, those have become more valuable than they have in the past," he said.
Smith said he hopes the downtown areas in Elkhart and Goshen will attract more music acts in the future. Smaller places, he noted, like Harrison Landing in Elkhart as well as Constant Spring and the Electric Brew in Goshen, also have a role to play in giving artists a place to perform.
The lineup for Goshen College's Performing Arts Series is increasingly impressive, music center executive director Brian Wiebe said. In the past, the series has attracted an eclectic mix of performers including Wynton Marsalis, Bobby McFerrin, Bela Fleck and Ricky Skaggs.
"Everyone knows that live music is very special, but it is increasingly challenging to support live music when it's so easy to listen to music on iPods," Wiebe said. "Fortunately, our community values going to concerts, and this seems to be growing. Probably 90 percent of our Performing Arts Series concerts this past decade have been sold out performances."
The series will embark on its 16th season this fall with 12-time Grammy Award winner Emmylou Harris, The English Concert, the Del McCoury Band and five other acts.
"I think it's been remarkable what has happened in the last decade, but what's to come in the next 10 years is even more exciting," Wiebe said.
Goshen Theater manager Nathan Butler said music lovers are beginning to realize that they don't have to hit the road to see a decent live concert.
"People are in the habit of going to Grand Rapids, Chicago and Indianapolis, but we're working hard to put really quality entertainment in downtown Goshen," he said.
Butler is hearing the same thing from concert promoters. The proof is in his inbox.
"I've been swamped with emails," he said. "I've been contacted by promoters as far away as Florida. The word is getting out. There have been phenomenal musicians here for years, but now there is a critical mass of people who are beginning to look at the business side of this in the eye, and I think that's one of the reasons it's gaining momentum."
Like Butler, Samuel has a positive outlook for the area's music scene.
"I think you're always planning and hoping for things in the future," Samuel said. "But what is most important to me is that whatever this community decides to do with and for local music, that it's done with excellence in a mutually beneficial way that is a positive experience for the artist, for those in attendance and for the people who are coordinating everything."

WASHINGTON (AP) - A Washington teenager has been sentenced to 8 years in prison for shooting a classmate in a high school parking lot.
Seventeen-year-old Brandon Smothers, who was charged as an adult, pleaded guilty in October to aggravated assault while armed. He was sentenced Friday.
Prosecutors say Smothers and the victim were in a verbal altercation on Sept. 19 at Coolidge High School. Authorities say Smothers was escorted out of the classroom and left the school.
Officials say after school ended, Smothers confronted the victim, pulled a semiautomatic handgun from his waist band and fired at the victim as he ran away.
The victim was hit four times in the leg and lower body.

On Behalf of Alice Saudargas:
Former Rockford School Board member Alice Saudargas today filed papers declaring her intent to be a write-in candidate in the April 9, 2013 election.
Saudargas said she filed the declarations of intent with the Winnebago County Clerk and Rockford Board of Elections because school officials refuse to allow her to defend the petitions she submitted in December 2012 to place her name on the ballot. The attorney for the Rockford School District Electoral Board informed Saudargas in letter dated January 28, 2013 that her request was being denied.
Saudargas was hospitalized and unable to attend previously scheduled hearings or retain legal counsel to appear on her behalf. An attorney has since agreed to represent Saudargas pro bono, and a second request for the Electoral Board to reconsider its decision is being drafted. If that effort fails, Saudargas may run as a write-in. The deadline to secure a designated write-in space is February 7.
"It seems ridiculous to me that you should have to lawyer up just to get your name on the ballot," Saudargas said. "All I'm asking for is basic fairness and common courtesy. I'd like the chance to explain why I believe I met the election requirements, but the powers-that-be ruled against me while I was flat on my back."
If Saudargas is kept off the ballot, the only name before voters will be that of Ken Scrivano, an executive at SwedishAmerican Health System. The objection to Saudargas' candidacy was filed by a SwedishAmerican employee being represented by the Holmstrom & Kennedy law firm.
Saudargas contends that nine of 28 signatures deemed invalid by the Electoral Board should be counted; she has previously released copies of affidavits from registered voters confirming that their signatures on her petitions are authentic and that they live in her subdistrict. Combined with 43 uncontested signatures, Saudargas would have more than the 50 signatures that are required for her name to appear on the ballot.
Saudargas, a retired teacher and principal, represented subdistrict C for 11 years before finishing second in a three-way election in 2011.
ROCKFORD (WIFR) -- Former Rockford School Board member Alice Saudargas is not backing down.
On Thursday she filed to be a write-in candidate for the upcoming school board election. You may recall last month election officials removed Saudargas' name from the ballot, after they ruled she didn't have enough petitions.
The 96-year-old says she has more than the required 50 signatures and has asked the election board to reconsider. The school board election is on April 9th.

UNCW associate provost for diversity leaving
Published: Tuesday, April 30, 2013 at 4:15 p.m.
Last Modified: Tuesday, April 30, 2013 at 4:15 p.m.
WILMINGTON | The associate provost for diversity at the University of North Carolina Wilmington is leaving for a job in Florida.
Jose Hernandez, who has been at UNCW since 2008, will become the chief diversity officer at the University of South Florida in Tampa on July 1. It's a newly created position, and it's a return to USF for Hernandez, who worked as that university's director of diversity and inclusion before moving to UNCW.
Hernandez was a "powerful force in opening up the dialogue surrounding diversity," according to a statement from UNCW Provost Denise Battles.
"We won't forget the impressive impact he has had on our diversity efforts and our culture as a whole," Battles wrote.
An interim leader for the Office of Institutional Diversity and Inclusion will be announced soon, according to the statement.

8th Goodguys Nashville NationalsWritten by Eric Geisert on November 22, 2013
Greening Car Company
It has become more popular recently that hot rod shops will hold an open house in the days before a major car show comes to their hometown. Such is the case with the Goodguys Nashville Nationals and Greening Car Company.
Greening, run by the father/son team of Jeff and Jesse Greening, has built an impressive list of award-winning cars and has recently expanded their business to include their own line of parts and wheels. Put "on the map" after they built the winner of the 2001 Ridler award for Paul Atkins, the team moved from where they started in Cullman, Alabama, to Nashville four years ago, and it's been gung ho ever since.
Their shop is 15,000 square feet and includes CNC machines and a semi-downdraft paint booth. They took the opportunity on the Wednesday night before the show to debut a few of their recent builds, provide some entertainment, and host a couple of lunch trucks that served both Southern and Korean food. This was the first year for the Greenings to have an open house, so we imagine this function will only get larger in the years to come.
Advanced Plating Open House
Chances are good that you have some chrome parts on your car that came from Advanced Plating. If not, there's also a chance you have some in your home, as Advanced Plating is a diverse chrome plating shop that has many different commercial accounts—everything from Gibson and Fender guitars to General Electric.
For the past couple of years, owner Steve Tracy has thrown open the doors to his 60,000-square-foot facility, brought in a band, and provided some excellent grub, as their open house served as the official kick-off party to the Goodguys event that weekend.
Some chrome shops you visit are pretty grubby because of the nature of the business (with metal polishing and acid dipping), but Advanced Plating is spotless, and it's an obvious result of the care and attention they put forth in their work.
With the disastrous flood that hit Nashville in 2010, Advanced was submerged under 59 inches of water, but they rebuilt and are now back and operating at peak performance, which is good news for all of us who like shiny stuff on our cars!
8th Nashville Nationals
Goodguys Invade Music City
With the help of a television show of the same name, Nashville has been slowly moving into the national social consciousness, but hot rodders have known for years Nashville is the place to be.
That's because eight years ago the Goodguys Rod & Custom Association rolled into town and set up shop at LP Field, the 105-acre facility and stadium home to the Tennessee Titans NFL football team. The site has 7,500 parking spaces, and the Goodguys do their best to fill them with every type of hot rod.
This year a record number of cars drove through the gates, and that was even with the rainstorms on Friday. Attendees have to pay attention to the weather here—in 2010 the nearby Cumberland River overflowed its banks and put the facility under several feet of water just a couple of weeks before the car show.
But, for the most part, the weather cooperated this year and the event went off without a hitch, and the high quality of the cars from this region of the country was evident. Rod builder (and Tennessee local) Bobby Alloway, who was on hand to pick the Builder's Choice winners, commented he had a hard time selecting which cars would get a nod because there were so many to choose from. Likewise, this event was also one of the 10 locations from which STREET RODDER hands out its Painless Wiring Top 100 awards, and it was the same dilemma: too many nice cars!
The show had its usual parking areas set aside for specialty rides (Deuce Doins, Ya Gotta Drive 'Em, Trick Truck Corral, and so on) and the pits for the Autocross seemed to overflow with contestants eager to test the limits of their driving abilities as well as their car through a timed road course set up on the grounds. The autocross portion of the Goodguys show is becoming more and more popular, and folks were four deep in some areas trying to view the cars flying around the track. Anyone who enters their car in the show is eligible to drive the racecourse, so it's a shame not more pre-1949 vehicles enter. After all, you can only watch a 1968 Camaro squeal its tires for so long before you want to go back to the car show! This year is also the first time Goodguys is offering $10,000 in prizes by organizing a National AutoCross Shootout that will culminate at the end of the year.
Goodguys is also celebrating its 30th anniversary as an organization, and they've gotten this far by giving the people what they want: a fun place to bring their family and spend some time with some really cool cars. It's a formula that will continue to work well for them, far into the future.

There's more than 15,000 square feet at Greening Auto Company. This was the first year that they had an open house before the Goodguys Nashville show, and they unveiled some new projects, too.Don Montgomery's 1967 Dodge was found in the Arizona desert with a perfect patina. Greening left the patina alone but equipped the car with a new 6.4L Hemi motor topped with eight-stack injection. They're expecting 400 horses at the rear wheel.Alan Woodall's 1965 Corvette is an amazing car, full of the subtle parts and pieces Greening likes to make, including the wheels, steering wheel, bumpers, and more. Jimmy Shaw's 1967 was also unveiled, and features a 1-inch chop and a Greening paintjob.The Advanced Plating parking lot served as a mini car show, with folks coming and going all evening long to see the shop, find some food, and listen to a great band.This is just a portion of one of the buildings at Advanced Plating. With a total of 60,000 square feet, it covers a lot of ground, and turns around a lot of chrome jobs each day.We found Rich Linder's "Buckshot" modified over near the swap meet, and especially liked the wheel covers and caps he had on his car.In from Havana, FL, Ron Jones' 1933 Ford cabriolet was covered in road dirt from driving it through the rain-soaked roads one day, and it cleaned up nice and pretty and in "show" condition the next day.
The shape might be unfamiliar because it's a 1923 Dodge. Bill Godisak from Dowagiac, MI, owns this ride, which uses a Packard drivetrain: a 1956 374-inch motor and a 1937 transmission.Lots of great stuff over in the swap meet, including this C-code 1965 fastback Mustang for only $7,400, which seemed like a good price for an entry-level project.It's hard to beat the classic lines of a vintage Deuce roadster. Greg and Lana Mortland from East Alton, IL, have recorded 62,000 miles in their Ford, which is powered by a 350/350 drivetrain.Lots of mid-1960s cars were out on the autocross course Saturday and Sunday, but unfortunately only a few pre-1949 cars.The racing pits looked like what you use to find on grudge nights at some old dragstrips: full of cars and people.The South always has a large group of rodders who favor big Cadillacs, Buicks, Packards, and the like. Warren Lovell owns the 1934 Cadillac Town Car on the right, while Neil O'Neal owns the 1934 Caddy on the left. Both rides were powered by a 502.This one has got to be pretty rare: a 1957 crew cab F-100. William Vandiver of Decatur, AL, is bringing this one back to life. Crew cabs are pretty popular with the truck crowd, and the truck crowd was out in force at this event.Tennessee local Bobby Alloway was on hand as he was the one who had the tough job of picking just 10 cars for the event's Builder's Choice awards. The quality of vehicles at this event has really improved over the past few years.
Boone Luna's 1953 Olds 88 has flames all over it, and flamethrowers out the back, too! An Olds 371 mated to a three-speed trans moves the big car around, and airbags are found on the corners.


text: Home Politics Why Sharpton Was Right About Obama Despite the debate over a black agenda, Obama can't do anything for African Americans that he doesn't do for the rest of the country. By: David Swerdlick Posted: April 12 2011 5:31 PM 0 Sunday's heated set-to between the Rev. Al Sharpton and Dr. Cornel West wasn't just an intramural pissing contest -- although it was that, too -- between two of the biggest names in black America. Their MSNBC exchange stood in for the larger debate within the Obama coalition between the "professional left" -- unhappy with Obama's moderate policies and more moderate governing style -- and rank-and-file Obama voters who say he's done what he can under the circumstances. An exasperated West demanded to know, "Where's the jobs bill?" to lower unemployment among African Americans, which stands at a dismal 15 percent; while Sharpton insisted that "too many of us are putting it all on the president," decrying criticism that looks to blame Obama for failing to address "black suffering that has always been there." Each man made his point, but there's one simple reason Sharpton is right and West is ultimately wrong on Obama -- West is an idealist, and Sharpton is a reality-based politician. And at this point, reality has Obama totally hemmed in. With a 45 percent approval rating and only one house of Congress, all he can do is continue to haggle with Republicans whose starting point for negotiation is: "Where's your birth certificate?" Between now and November 2012, a jobs program targeted to help African Americans just isn't happening. Although black approval of the president recently dipped to a low of 85 percent, Sharpton's message was, in short, that this is as good as it gets. And his message was meant for Obama supporters across the spectrum. If you're black and still basking in the afterglow of Obama's election, stop. If you're Latino and think that immigration reform is overdue, pace yourself. If you're under 30, forget you've ever heard of Medicare. If you're a worker still holding out for union "card check" legislation, one word: Wisconsin. And if you're a suburbanite who thought "change" was the new order of the day in Washington, guess again: It was only a mission statement. People will be disappointed if they don't get that there's not a lot that Obama can deliver at this point if he can't find a big enough constituency to support it. That's really all that Sharpton -- flexing his newly minted chops as the liberal voice of reason -- was trying to say. It's no mystery how Obama got to this point. Progressives pushed him to spend all of his political capital during his first two years, and that's what he did -- getting the stimulus package by sheer force of personality, and passing unpopular health care reform when not a single Democrat in Congress was capable of selling it to the public. But it's hard to say that Obama hasn't done anything for African Americans, because if you accept the premise that he's done a good job managing a bad economy, then you also have to think that if things were worse overall, unemployment could have been even higher in black America. The Grio's Boyce Watkins argued this week that in the end, Sharpton and West's routine might be a "good cop, bad cop" scenario that helps them drive an inside-outside agenda with the Obama White House. Maybe he's right that Sharpton will score a few points with Team Obama, but don't count on the debate altering Obama's game plan. When Obama speaks to the nation Wednesday to try to explain how he'll deal with next year's federal budget, he'll be playing defense. "Winning the Future" has already been sidelined in favor of reluctantly pushing his own deficit commission's proposal to cut entitlements along with raising taxes on top earners -- something Obama should have proposed in the State of the Union -- as the reasonable alternative to House GOP plans to cut taxes and voucherize Medicare. Sharpton's right. There's not much the president can do without the electorate behind him. And if the electorate -- and elections -- are dominated by voters who oppose him, Obama's in the tough position of pushing an agenda, black or otherwise, that a lot of Obama voters didn't vote for.

(USA Today) -- Dallas Cowboys nose tackle Josh Brent was indicted Wednesday for felony intoxication manslaughter, nearly three weeks after police said he drove drunk and flipped his car, killing his teammate and friend Jerry Brown.
The case now heads to criminal court in Dallas County, Texas, where he will await trial while out of jail on a $100,000 bond. No hearing or trial date has been set, according to a spokeswoman for the Dallas County district attorney's office. The district attorney received the case from police Friday, and a grand jury handed down the indictment Wednesday.
Brent's attorney will meet with a case prosecutor next to discuss how they will proceed with the case, the spokeswoman said.
Brent was driving his car with Brown as a passenger early Dec. 8 after leaving a popular nightclub frequented by pro athletes in Dallas. The car hit a curb in Irving, Texas, flipping it back onto the street. Brent suffered only minor injuries. Brown, a linebacker with the Cowboys' practice squad, was transported to the hospital, where he was pronounced dead.
Irving police said Brent's blood-alcohol concentration measured at .189, more than twice the legal limit. Brent previously was convicted of a DUI charge in 2009.
Brent, 24, and Brown were teammates at the University of Illinois.

Direct Anterior Approach
The anterior or frontal approach to total hip replacement has gained in popularity among surgeons and patients who see it as less invasive, with a quicker recovery period compared to traditional hip replacement.
Southern Bone & Joint physicians, independent orthopedic surgeons, are performing this technique with the surgical team at SAMC.
Using the anterior approach allows for hip muscles to be moved out of the way instead of cut; the replacement of joint cartilage and bone is performed by going between the hip muscles that help hold the hip joint in place. Smaller incisions, which can be glued and not stitched or stapled, are possible, and the procedure spares muscle tissue and results in fewer complications such as dislocation of the new ball joint. Leaving the muscle intact provides greater joint stability.
The anterior approach reduces hospital stay and allows for quicker rehabilitation. Patients can bear weight soon after the surgery.
The procedure is appropriate for patients who are active and eager to return to work and their daily activities as quickly as possible. It is not recommended for obese patients or those with conditions that don't allow manipulating the hip without cutting muscles.
Hip replacement is a surgical procedure to replace a worn out or damaged hip with an artificial joint (prosthesis). This surgery may be considered following a hip fracture or for someone who has severe pain due to arthritis.
An average of 150 artificial hip replacement surgeries are performed yearly at SAMC.
Hip replacement may become necessary if activities such as walking, sitting, or even resting become painful. The goal of hip replacement surgery is to replace the parts of the hip joint that have been damaged and to relieve hip pain that cannot be controlled by other treatments.
Kay McDurmont
New Brockton, Ala.
Diagnosis: Degenerative joint disease
Treatment: Anterior Hip Replacement
I wish everybody could have this type of surgery. I had no stitches or staples. The incision was glued. I know this procedure is different, but I feel like it was the Lord that got me through it all.
I was able to get up and start going a week after surgery. I could do my own exercises and everything. I didn't have any pain. I have a pool, so I am looking forward to swimming and getting out walking.
Before the surgery, I was in pain. My children did my grocery and Christmas shopping because it hurt so bad for me to get up, sit down and walk. I gained weight because I couldn't get around. It hurt to sit, stand, get my leg in the car ... there were lots of tears and frustration.
Now I can go anywhere. I can go all over the store, get my groceries, go home and unload it and cook a meal. I haven't been able to do that in some time.
I am glad to have had the anterior hip replacement. My daughter, who is a nurse, wanted me to have this kind of surgery. She said I would not have pain and she was right.

Hello everyone,
I am facing a problem with the function SendAs Zimbra.
For example the case of a asssitante who need to send email with the address of his manager.
Under the webmail functions "send as" and "send behalf of" work perfectly well.
From outlook (2007 or 2010), only the "send behalf of" work, but impossible to do work "send as". I have an email directly to non-delivery of mail that tells me I do not have the rights to send as another person while the right is active and that fonctionnne from webmail.
Is this normal for Outlook? Is an Outlook security?
Thank you in advance for your help.

text: The Zentrum Paul Klee museum is dedicated to the life and works of artist Paul Klee (1879 - 1940). The museum is situated in Bern and features approximately 40 percent of Klee's entire pictorial works. The majority of Klee's works were donated by Livia Klee-Meyer, his daughter-in-law. Livia inherited nearly 690 of Klee's works. She then donated them to the city of Bern in the summer of 1997. Livia's donation topped with additional works and documents loaned by the Paul Kleeson Foundation and his family produced 200 more items from the artist. To accommodate the large collection and make way for a cultural centre for Bern, the decision to build a museum on the eastern outskirts of the city was made. Famous Italian architect Renzo Piano was contacted in 1998 to design the new facility. A preliminary project was elaborated in 200 and the building was finally completed in 2005. On June 20th, 2005, the Zentrum Paul Klee opened its doors and welcomed visitors for the first time. Personally, Klee was not only an artist, but a musician, poet, and teacher as well. He is now known as one of the 20th Century's most significant and compelling artists. Klee spent a majority of his years in Bern. Today the Zentrum Paul Klee serves as a Bern hallmark and boasts a unique exterior that features three undulations blending into the landscape. The Alps serve as the museum's background and it actually looks like three artificial hills. The first of these three hills houses a multi-functional room, auditorium and children's museum. The second hill is home to the exhibition section containing Klee's work. The third and final hill is reserved for management and research activities. Each hill, or wave as some have come to call them, are connected by a covered passageway. The roof of the museum is covered using Ugitop, a matte finished stainless steel product. The roof is .4 millimeters thick having been molded in the mill before its installation on a wooden structure. Intentionally visible from both the inside and the outside, the structure is formed by a series of parallel steel arches. The pieces of the arches were produced by CNC equipment and had to be manually welded. The use of steel was deemed necessary because it was the only material found to respond adequately to the need for variations in the plate thickness and different stresses. Lastly, tall variations exist in the arches depending on the point of each case. Through the use of reinforced concrete support points, standing horizontal forces collaborate with the floor slabs. Additionally, two series of tie rods guarantee the cross-sectional stability of the arches. Unfortunately, a large portion of the museum's collection cannot be exhibited at this time. This is due to concerns of preservation. The works, however, are made available to researchers. To ensure preservation of Klee's art, the museum also refrains from the use of zenital light.

Lady Gaga has wielded her creative genius again. The singer, dancer, and classically trained pianist in now offering up the gift of her sensual, opulent new fragrance, "Fame." We at V.F.C.S. love to sample new scents, so when we had the chance to try this first black Eau de Parfum ever (it's black in the bottle but invisible once airborne) we were pumped. It can be tempting to stick with one type of scent, but with the New Year rapidly approaching, it's time to try something new and edgy…and this one really is new in more ways than one. Unlike most fragrances composed on a pyramid structure of top , middle, and bottom note, "Fame" is made up of dark, sensual, and light accords and uses what's known as "push-pull technology" mixing ingredients to highlight different aspects of each fragrant note all at once. Leave it to Gaga to offer up something totally surprising that we absolutely love. Once you try it, you may be totally seduced. So be prepared for a life of limousines, Chateau Marmont dinner dates, and paparazzi….or at least get ready to be legendary for your new signature scent.

Letters to the Editor
Street fair was a rousing success
To the Editor:
David Sabatino
Just wanted to send out a big thank-you to Dave Sabatino, owner of Sip This in Valley Stream, for organizing the 2013 Valley Stream Community Fest. As long-time business owners on Rockaway Avenue, it is great to see a new business owner put together such a successful venture for all the residents and merchants of Valley Stream. We all know how much hard work goes into organizing this type of event, and by all accounts it was a huge success.
We hope that this event becomes a Valley Stream tradition for years to come. Thanks again, Dave, for your hard work. It did not go unnoticed.
Paul Pandolfi and Mark Salmon
The Valley Stream Chamber of Commerce would like to thank the Valley Stream Community Fest committee for organizing last Saturday's street fair on Rockaway Avenue.
It was a wonderful opportunity for many of our members and the businesses along Rockaway Avenue to meet the people of our community. Thank you to the mayor and Board of Trustees for their support, and to all the other community volunteers who helped to make the second Valley Stream Community Fest such a great event. We look forward to next year.

Baroness 'back to high gear' after 2012 bus crash
With Coliseum
WHEN: 9 p.m. Saturday
WHERE: The V Club, 741 6th Ave., Huntington
COST: $13 in advance, $15 at the door
INFO: 304-781-0680 or www.vclublive.com
CHARLESTON, W.Va. -- Baroness lead guitarist Peter Adams has cheated death twice.
The first was in 2003 in a firefight outside Fallujah, Iraq, as a gunner in a scout platoon. A grenade exploded above his head, sending shrapnel into his right eye and body armor. He required a four-month hospital stay and lost sight in that eye.
The second was last August.
In July 2012, the genre-defying metal band released its third full-length album, "Yellow & Green," on Relapse Records. A month later, touring in England, its tour bus fell 30 feet into a viaduct, injuring nine (including two seriously) and throwing the future of the critically acclaimed band into uncertainty.
Singer/guitarist John Baizley, a childhood friend of Adams, broke his left arm and left leg in the incident. Bassist Matt Maggioni and drummer Allen Blickle each suffered fractured vertebrae. Adams suffered no serious injuries; he was treated and released the next day.
Speaking over the phone from his home in Virginia, Adams' excitement was apparent when asked about picking up where the band left off last August.
"We're super excited, as you can imagine," he said. "At one point, we didn't know when or if we'd get to tour again."
As part of the first leg of its 2013 U.S. tour, Baroness performs at The V Club in Huntington on Saturday, with Louisville's Coliseum opening the show.
The band formed in 2003 (sans Adams, who was in the military at the time), but its roots were laid a few years earlier with Adams and Baizley in the band that would become Baroness. Since then, Baroness has opened for bands including Mastodon, Metallica and the Deftones, as well as played at the Bonnaroo and Coachella music festivals.
"The day of the crash, [Baizley] looked at me and said, 'Look, man, I think my arm is broken,' and I said, 'Hell, you'll be fine," Adams recalled with a laugh he could only have in retrospect.
"He recovered 10 times better than I, or anyone, would've expected. He wasn't going to let this thing kick his butt. He's doing considerably well: he's playing, and we're able to rehearse for hours on end.
"He's still got some pain in there, but he pushes through it in a remarkable way."
After welcoming Nick Jost on bass and Sebastian Thomson on drums earlier this year, Baroness announced on its website that the band would again do what it's been doing for a decade: getting in a van and touring.
"I think we're back to high gear again," Adams said.
He said it's high time to hit the road again.
"After the accident, I did a lot of soul searching. You start to think, 'Hey, is this touring thing for me?' At the end of the day, I determined it was.
"It's what we do, and you only have this one life to live. I want to get out there and keep it going."
He said he's even looking forward to heading back to Europe.
"We've got some unsettled business there, with a few shows we weren't able to make."

Exploring the base abstractions from which developers build applications and practical implementations of those abstractions in operating systems.
The Operating Systems Group is part of the Systems and Networking Research Area. The most important job of an operating system is to provide a context within which programs can be created and run. Our group conducts fundamental and applied research into the base abstractions to create this context. To make our work relevant, we build prototype systems to evaluate our ideas and to prove their implemention into practical systems.
Drawbridge is a research prototype of a new form of virtualization for application sandboxing. Drawbridge combines two core technologie: First, a picoprocess, which is a process-based isolation container with a minimal kernel API surface. Second, a library OS, which is a very of Windows enlightened to run efficiently within a picoprocess.
Experiment 19 was a shunkworks project in late 2008 and early 2009 to re-imagine the Windows Phone platform. We created drivers and firmware to run Windows core components on prototype ARM-based phones. We ported the CLR to ARM and created an ARM JIT compiler. The prototype proved that Windows NT could achieve better performance than Windows CE on identical hardware. Within months of the completion of Experiment 19, Microsoft launched efforts to build what would become Windows Phone 8 and Windows RT for ARM tablets.
- Singularity focused on the construction of dependable systems through innovation in the areas of systems, languages, and tools. We are researching OS innovations, extending programming languages, and developing new techniques and tools for specifying and verifying system behavior. This research occurs in a new OS also called Singularity.
Full Time Jobs
We are hiring! We are looking for research candidates with demonstrated qualities of research taste, innovation, and first-hand system building. We highly value a proven track record as demonstrated by strong publications in top venues. If you are interested in a full-time Researcher position, you will need to submit a C.V. or resume, a research statement, two publications you feel represent your best work, and provide at least three references. The minimum education requirement for a Researcher is a Ph.D. in Computer Science or equivalent.
We do most of our hiring in the spring of each year. To be considered in our spring candidate pool, please apply online by January 15, listing Galen Hunt as your primary contact.

Asia Pacific air cargo figures suggest sustained regional recovery
November 01, 2010 - SCMR Editorial
U.S. retailers and manufacturers continue to increase their reliance on air cargo from Asia, said a leading supply chain authority.
According to the Association of Asia Pacific Airlines (AAPA), the month of September showed a continued surge in cargo volume and traffic.
"Freight markets remained robust as the economic recovery maintained its momentum," said AAPA spokesmen.
International air cargo demand increased by 18.5 percent compared to the same month last year, while freight capacity expanded by 19.3 percent, resulting in a 0.5 percentage point decline in the average international cargo load factor to 67.9 percent.
"Asian economies have been leading the way out of the global downturn, and this has resulted in a tremendous boost to the fortunes of carriers across the region," said Andrew Herdman, AAPA Director General.
"Over the past nine months, we have seen a dramatic 30.2 percent growth in international air cargo traffic, compared to the same period last year."
The International Air Transport Association (IATA) came to a similar conclusion late last month when it announced a modest global uptick in freight traffic led by Asia Pacific carriers. IATA recorded a 15.0 percent increase in freight demand over the previous year, a finding that came as scant surprise to U.S. shippers.
"We modest, but sustained growth in the region," said Brandon Fried, executive director of the Air Forwarders Association. "On the outbound side, the nation's entertainment and high-tech industries are reporting good numbers."
Both Fried and Herdman noted that Asian consumers are already displaying confidence in the future—in marked contrast to the U.S.
"The overall outlook for Asian carriers remains very positive over the next 12 months," said Herdman, "with prospects for further sustained growth in demand in line with established long term trends."

The current install is a 3.1.1 open source install on fairly clean Debian 3.1 setup.
When I did the original install on this box I had to move zimbra after I installed it because I don't have enough disk space in root for it(it was a existing server in production at my hosting provider so I can't repartition it). I moved /opt/zimbra to /home/zimbra and then did "ln -s /home/zimbra /opt/zimbra" and Zimbra has run great.
When I ran the install script it bombed out when it couldn't find any of the previous files which I suspect happened because it erased the sym link and created a new directory at /opt/zimbra. Lucky I had back it all up first and could restore from my back. I know this is exactly a standard setup but I think it shouldn't be too hard to change the install script to work with the sym link. With Zimbra in production now I can't move it back to /opt because of the lack of disk space.

Is it possible to remove the "zimlets" menu from the left navigation pane ?
If a user don't need it, it is only disturbing the eye of the "mail - newbie"
Also the "small-screened" laptopusers would benefit if they could switch off unused menu panes and bars.
It is indeed a marvelous product the Zimbra team has created.
A very excited public institutional administrator in Copenhagen.

St. Louis, MO (SportsNetwork.com) - The St. Louis Blues on Tuesday
activated defenseman Roman Polak from injured reserve and placed forward Max
Lapierre on IR.
Polak suffered an unspecified lower-body injury during a 5-1 win over the
Montreal Canadiens on Dec. 17, and has missed the last 10 games.
Lapierre has also been felled by a lower-body injury, and the club recalled
forward Dmitrij Jaskin from Chicago of the American Hockey League.
Jaskin picked up his first NHL goal during his last call-up, a four-game stint
in late December.
