ST LOUIS (LALATE) – Are Phaedra Parks and Apollo getting a divorce? "Phaedra and Apollo are getting a divorce", husband Peter Thomas tells Cynthia Bailey on the Real Housewives of Atlanta episode debuting Sunday. But do Phaedra Parks and Apollo get divorced, are Phaedra and Apollo divorced now, or is this Bravo simply tacking a hideously false online report and make it a fake reality TV storyline as well? Phaedra and Apollo are not getting divorced, despite the Bravo confusion.
Phaedra Parks and Apollo divorce confusion began early this week when Bravo first began running previews of the new RHOA episode. The cast is back from the vacation and tensions are running high between Phaedra Parks and husband Apollo Nida. Phaedra Parks has previously defended Apollo's former criminal record. But in the new episode, Apollo says he doesn't like what marriage has done to him. Moreover, he says he wishes he was single.

The tensions are previewed with Peter Thomas holding up a picture of a "blog" and telling his wife the bad "news". But is it news or just false rumors? "Phaedra and Apollo are getting a divorce. It's on this blog", Peter tells his wife. Peter doesn't show the name of the blog. And despite what Peter reveals, the blog report was nothing but false rumors shot down shortly after they were published.

In July 2012, one blog published a false "exclusive" claiming that Parks went to "her" church Light and Salvation Outreach Ministries Church on a "Sunday" and was ringless. A subsequent news report by Sister 2 Sister confirmed that Parks doesn't go to that church, and that the church didn't have even have services that Sunday.
This weekend on Bravo, Peter, Cynthia, Phaedra and Apollo head to a club. But during that visit, Apollo admits that he leaves his wife at home often and goes to watch the dancers alone. "I thought you go to … clubs, you have been here before?" asks Cynthia. Apollo responds back. "My outlet. I am st-p club person. I go to st–p clubs allot." Then he says negative things about his wife. "Phaedra needs to go out and have a great time."

But the discussion becomes peculiar. "A lot of people live between the hours of 7 am and 8 pm. I don't live with time restraint. Time restraint is for people who have to abide by time and life through a sector of time schedule." That leaves Cynthia perplexed.
But then come the Apollo jabs. "Since we got married, both of us were two different characters, individuals. I think we have left a sense of who we really are deep down inside. I think it makes yourself a bit better." Parks is unhappy with the use of the term "bitter", looking at Apollo displeased. He jabs back. "Stop putting me on the defense. I think I have lost a sense of who I am… I need that person back."
In a moment that seems pulled from a bad RHONJ storyline, Apollo then hurls insults at Phaedra when she is not around. He tells Peter "I am dealing with god d—mn beast. My wife is on one million every day."
Despite the negative comments that will air Sunday, reports of a Phaedra Parks and Apollo divorce in July 2012 were false. The couple never got divorced and are still very much in love and married.

Similarly, I wonder if the Kenya-Cordell airhead-country bumpkin schtick is exaggerated for the show. Kenya's persona – especially coupled with her foul-mouthed encounter with Kenya in Anguilla – is not a good look for the Hosea Williams charity she reps, but
Continued from above:
Oops! I meant the Porsha-Cordell airhead-country bumpkin schtick.
…but I hope, at the very least, Porsha's participation in the show results in increased awareness of Mr. Williams' work and support for his foundation.

Tennis Cruises Past Rhode Island For 3rd Straight A-10 Win
April 11, 2013
KINGSTON, R.I. - With a sweep of doubles play and wins in five-of-six singles matches, the UMass women's tennis team defeated Rhode Island 6-1 on Wednesday afternoon. The win improves the Minutewomen to 12-5 overall on the season and 6-1 in Atlantic 10 play. UMass won three of the singles matches in straight sets, while Jessica Podlofsky and Arielle Griffin each won three-set matches at No. 2 and No. 3 singles respectively.
The Minutewomen earned the opening point of the day with a clean sweep of the three doubles matches.
Rhode Island opened singles play with a straight set win by Galina Chernykh over Sonia Bokhari (6-4, 6-2), but from there it was all UMass.
Podlofsky lost her opening set at No. 2 singles to Nithila Asokaraj 6-4, but rallied back to take the second and third sets 6-4 and 10-4 respectively.
At No. 3 singles, Griffin also fell in the opening set, but bounced back to win her match with a 7-6 second set and a 10-7 third set.
Chanel Glasper, Chantal Swiszcz and Jocelyn Providence each won the remaining singles matches in straight sets to wrap up the win.
The Minutewomenw will return to action this Saturday at Bryant (12 PM) before returning home to host Sacred Heart on Sunday. The match against Sacred Heart will be Senior Day and will be played at the Mullins Center Tennis Courts behind the Mullins Center and adjacent to Earl Lorden Baseball Field.

In a previous article, we presented phallometric data to illustrate a case of preferential bestiality or zoophilia (Earls & Lalumière, Sex Abuse: J Res Treat, 14:83–88, 2002). Based on the available literature, we argued that a marked preference for having sex with animals over sex with humans is extremely rare. In the present article, we describe a second case of zoophilia that challenges the widely held assumptions that men who have sex with animals are generally of below average intelligence and come from rural areas. In addition, we provide a brief review of a burgeoning quantitative literature using large groups of zoophiles recruited from internet sources. Although estimates of the prevalence of zoophilia are not possible at this time, it appears that zoophilia is not as rare as once thought and shares many features with other atypical sexual interests.

Nichol, 31, is a Texas Tech 1999 graduate familiar with Arizona's offensive package from playing as a receiver at Tech and working with UA coaches Sonny Dykes and Bill Bedenbaugh as a student assistant and grad assistant during their tenure in Lubbock.? Dykes is UA's offensive coordinator and quarterbacks coach while Bedenbaugh is the running game coordinator and line coach.
"I'm really excited to continue to work for Coach Stoops, in a higher capacity, or with growing responsibilities. I feel competent in this offense and am eager to grow as a coach," Nichol said.
"As much as we're in four-receiver sets, we wanted to maximize our staff," Stoops said. "Having graduated from Texas Tech, Dave grew up in the (spread) system with coach (Mike) Leach. He understands the system and we're going forward and didn't have to teach anyone," he said. "I'm impressed by his knowledge and intelligence."
Stoops said Nichol will collaborate with second-year coach Michael Smith in providing more emphasis on coaching receivers in the spread offensive system UA employs. Smith coached running backs in 2007, but will switch to inside receivers coach this year, while tight ends coach Dana Dimel will add running backs to his responsibility.
Nichol joined the UA staff before fall camp last year and worked closely with Dykes' offensive staff?in practice situations, while helping the high-view coaches chart opponents during games from the pressbox.
He worked with Tech's quarterbacks and receivers in 2000-01, and spent a year in 2002 as passing game coordinator at Cisco (Texas) College.
Nichol succeeds Darrell Wyatt, who left the staff after the season to take the offensive coordinator's position at Southern Mississippi.
Nichol earned his undergraduate degree in exercise and sport sciences and later earned a master's in interdisciplinary studies in 2002 from TTU.
Arizona Football Notes... Stoops said a couple of position changes were expected when UA convenes for spring practice on Sunday, March 9. Junior?Earl Mitchell, who lettered his first two years as a tight end, will be tried in a switch to defensive tackle. "Earl's physical talent and strength are something we probably didn't maximize by using him at tight end," Stoops said. The other expected switch is sophomore receiver Mike Turner to cornerback, where UA will open drills without its four-year bookends in Antoine Cason and Wilrey Fontenot. He'll compete with junior Devin Ross, senior Marquis Hundley and redshirt freshman Travin Wade, among others...

Some interpret John 3:13 to mean nobody goes to heaven when we die but await the resurrection while they lie unconscious in a grave. Others believe it means that Jesus ascended to heaven before he died. It means neither of those two things. Jesus' unique position is of one who was on earth and at the same time "in heaven" in constant communion with the Father. Jesus is the bridge between heaven and earth. In a similar sense, all believers are "seated in heavenly places" (Ephesians 2:6) much as Jesus resided "in the bosom of the Father" (John 1:18). Jesus is able to reveal heavenly secrets to Nicodemus because he "has ascended to heaven" and "is in heaven." In Jesus, there is a bridge from heaven to earth which all those who are born from above experience.
Christians then live in two places at once. As reborn from above, we rightly say that when we die we will be going home, because that is where our new birth is from. As we accomplish our journey on this earth, let us never forget that our citizenship is actually in heaven. The things of this world do not compare to what God has in store for those who love him and his kingdom.

On Dec. 11, 2013, 35-year old Jesse Ryan Loskarn, GOP Sen. Lamar Alexander's chief of staff at the time, was arrested on charges of possessing and distributing child pornography following a raid on his home. On Thursday, Jan. 23, the former high ranking aide from the Tenn. Republican's staff was found dead in his parents' Carroll County, Md. home of an apparent suicide.
According to The Huffington Post, the Maryland medical examiner's office confirmed that the former aide died by hanging himself.
Family members found Loskarn "unresponsive in his basement where he'd been residing with family since this past December." When Carroll County Sheriff's Deputies arrived at the residence, Loskarn was already dead.
As court proceedings against Loskarn had gotten underway, he was released from jail into the custody of his parents' home, where he was ordered not to be able to access the Internet. Loskarn was also ordered to wear "an ankle bracelet to track his movements."
The complaint filed against him alleged that he possessed a hard drive filled with "hundreds of videos depicting underage boys engaged in sexually explicit conduct."
The former aide worked for Sen. Alexander for two years prior to his arrest.
Although Alexander expressed disappointment when his aide was arrested, the senator said on Friday, following the suicide, "For everyone involved, this is a sad and tragic story from beginning to end."
Yesterday, Jesse Loskarn's parents released the following statement:
"We loved our son very much, and we're devastated by his death," they said. "Please respect our privacy at this difficult time and let us grieve in peace. Pray for him, his family and friends."
For more on the suicide of Jesse Ryan Loskarn, see the video accompanying this article.

Have you ever felt a connection so strong to a piece of music that you felt it must have been written just for you in that exact moment you were listening to it? Have you ever felt like an artist was ripping thoughts straight from your head and putting them into a song? Has a song ever been there for you to say just the right thing you needed to hear at just the right moment?
To me, one of my longest and best friends in the world has been my iPod. I've had the same iPod since high school, which was over a decade ago for me. Whenever I've needed a friend to tell me everything will be alright or even to agree with me that nothing is alright, my iPod has always been there for me. Through my iPod, I can always pull out a song to suit whatever mood I am in. Even on days where I feel like I can't even talk to people, I can at least listen to them through music. When I briefly lost the charger for my iPod recently, I felt like a good friend of mine had got a terrible health diagnosis and started to fear how I was going to say goodbye to this friend. Of course, I could have just bought a new charger or I even could have bought a new iPod with better features and of a smaller size, but what about my old iPod? My old iPod has been there for me whenever I've needed it. It has given me so much wisdom, so much good times, and so much consolation in the bad times. All it's ever asked for in return is that I plug it in to charge it every now and then.
Really though, it's not the iPod itself that has been such a friend to me all these years, but the music that I have put onto it. I have made so many connections to people through their songs. This is what the movie "Begin Again" is about. "Begin Again" again is about a record producer and a musician who connect through the power of music. It is about the people that connect to them through the power of their music. It is about how a song can save a life.
Actually, the original title for the movie was "Can a Song Save Your Life?". That title is a much less vague title and a much more to-the-point title than "Begin Again". In that sense, the original title does work better, but perhaps it doesn't fit as well on a movie marquee? Either way, "Begin Again", while also a fitting title, is too general and too lacking in power to really convey the emotions that run through this movie. "Begin Again" is a powerful statement on how music can change people and bring them together in ways that never would have been possible without it.
A song can be about many things. Songs can be made for many different reasons. If you turn on the radio then you may sometimes get the impression that most songs are made just to fit within a certain style that is currently bringing in a lot of money for the record companies and their artists. One of the main characters in "Begin Again", record producer Dan, played by Mark Ruffalo, is listening to various demos he has been sent by artists hoping to get a record deal with his company. As he sifts through one after another, he gets more and more annoyed. They all sound so devoid of any kind of true feeling. The songs are all manufactured songs coming out of a machine with lyrics only going as deep as to have lyrics about feeling good and partying in the summer. I know I have felt similar feelings of annoyance when listening to the radio at times.
However, what about those moments where you find yourself out somewhere, say in a store that is playing some music from its speakers, and suddenly words start coming out of the speakers that seem to be speaking just to you in that particular moment? What about those times when you put on a certain song and it just lifts up your spirits? What about those times when you have so many questions about the world and so many fears and you feel like you're the only one who thinks these thoughts until you hear a song that says everything you've been thinking?
A song can form a connection so strong with you that it drowns out everything else in your life. I know I have been walking in a crowded city before, with tons of frustrated, impatient, angry, and loud people and totally have felt none of it because I was listening to a song through a pair of headphones. A song can not only drown out the world around you, but it can change the world around you too. Suddenly, an angry, impatient world can become a part of a beautiful symphony with the right soundtrack playing into your ears. The best part is that this music can be playing just for you. Music can be a deeply personal experience. "Begin Again" captures this feeling perfectly.
Not all songs that are written are written just for fun or to make money. There are many, many songs out there that are written from a deeply personal and emotional place. Keira Knightley's character of Gretta in "Begin Again" writes these kinds of songs. What this movie shows is that these are the hardest kinds of songs to perform. They are the songs in which one is baring their soul for all to see. It is the scariest kind of song to write, but what the movie shows is that it can also be the most rewarding.
You see, music can be a deeply personal experience, both for the artists writing and performing the song and for the people listening to it, but it can also be something else. When a song is shared with someone else, a beautiful thing happens: a connection is made. It doesn't have to be the deepest song in the world for this connection to happen, but I feel that when it is something more personal that the connection is even stronger than just a song about partying or dancing. I've discovered some of my favorite and closest people through their music. I mean, I don't actually know or haven't actually met most of these people, but in a way, I do know them. I know that these artists have the same thoughts I do. I know that they look at the world the same way I do and I know that they were able to put these thoughts into a piece of music that anyone can listen to. That is a beautiful thing.
"Begin Again" is a movie that takes a look at two characters, a record producer and a musician, who are in a tough time in their life. They are two strangers from different countries who really aren't that different at all. They have some of the same problems and some of the same loves and dislikes. They are people who could really bond together if they ever met. The problem is that they would never meet, if not for the power of song.
I can recall so many moments that music has connected me with other people. I've had romance begin through the power of a song. I've been constantly in rooms with strangers that became completely connected with me through the power of music. Every concert I have ever been to has been like this. I've also done karaoke many times and have myself united a whole room of people through the power of songs sung by me on stage. I have felt united to other people who have sung songs on stage. "Begin Again" is ultimately a cinematic love letter to this phenomenon that so many people have experienced in their lives.
"Begin Again", like the best songs, hits all the right notes. Everyone here seems so perfect for their characters. Some maybe more obviously so than others, like Cee Lo Green playing a hip hop artist or Adam Levine playing a musician whose musical substance, and facial hair, comes into question. Everyone here gives a perfect performance though. The directing and editing is also just right. The first part of the movie plays perfectly with perspective in relationship to music and really sets the tone for things to come. The story goes just enough in all the right directions to work, but never too far as to make the story go into territory that is not necessary or is too predictable. The best part about "Begin Again", however, is the way it so accurately captures the power of music.
I have never seen on screen before such an accurate acknowledgement of the way music can change people. There are so many moments in "Begin Again" that I have experienced in my life before, but have never seen on screen before. "Begin Again" is one of the most powerful showcases ever made of the power that music has to connect us all.

Sting, a former WCW, NWA and TNA World Heavyweight Champion, as well as WCW Tag Team, Television and United States Champion has never wrestled for the WWE, but was reportedly signed to a WWE Legends contract by the company a few months ago, to help facilitate the branding of WCW material on the new WWE Network. Dubbed "The Franchise" during his tenure in WCW, Sting is the last of former WCW stars to never wrestle in the WWE. After years of speculation, it now appears that "The Stinger," at the very least, will officially appear in a WWE video game.
"The only thing for sure about Sting is nothing's for sure, except my debut in WWE 2K15," said Sting in a press release by 2K on Tuesday. "I'm honored to have my legacy immortalized in a video game. It's showtime!"
The news was unexpected, despite the fact that Sting tweeted 7-14-14 on his Twitter page last week. Despite his legendary status in the world of wrestling, the last game Sting appeared in on a home console was Midway's TNA Impact in 2008 on the PlayStation 2, Xbox 360, PlayStation 3 and Wii.
Last year, Sting's former tag team partner, the late-Ultimate Warrior was the pre-order exclusive character for "WWE 2K14."
With the announcement, Sting joins the already confirmed John Cena, who will appear on the game's cover, Darren Young, Hulk Hogan, Roman Reigns, Bray Wyatt and Antonio Cesaro as a part of the game's roster.
"We're eager to introduce fans to Sting in a compelling new way, while debuting the next-generation of gaming in the WWE 2K franchise," Chris Snyder, Vice President of Marketing at 2K said in a press release obtained by Examiner on Tuesday morning. "Pre-ordering WWE 2K15 is the ultimate way to embrace the history and individuality of Sting's impressive career."
"WWE 2K15" is set for a October 28 release in North America and will ship on October 31 internationally.

In what may have seemed an endless battle between the city of Henderson and The Lexus Project, a legal defense group for dogs that are unjustly accused of being vicious or dangerous, Onion's life will be spared reported Thursday night's Nevada's Las Vegas Sun. Two years ago, Onion tragically killed a one-year-old child when the baby accidentally tripped over the sleeping dog.
"Litigation for Onion has been dismissed, and he has been relocated permanently to a rescue," said Robin Mittasch, president and co-founder of The Lexus Project.
According to Henderson's spokesperson, Bud Cranor, the decision was made to release Onion to The Lexus Project with the stipulations that the city be released from any further or potential liability with regard to Onion's future actions, that Onion be placed in a licensed facility out of the State of Nevada, and that the dog never be adopted to a family with children or in an area near children.
The case attracted national attention when one-year-old Jeremiah Eskew-Shahan crawled toward the sleeping dog and used the dog's body to attempt to stand up. The dog was startled by the child, and grabbed the child by his head and shook. A command was given to the dog to stop in less than a minute, but the baby suffered cerebral trauma and died. Animal Control demanded Keller sign over the dog to the city. The city planned to euthanize Onion.
Read the complete story by clicking here.
The toddler, Jeremiah Eskew-Shaban, was the grandson of Elizabeth Keller, Onion's owner. Keller had owned the dog since Onion was only four-weeks-old, and the dog had been Keller's constant companion and therapy dog as Keller fought lung cancer.
When the tragedy first occurred, Onion was slated to be euthanized after the ten-day isolation period. Keller later reconsidered, stating her dog had never been vicious, and an almost two year legal battle continued while Onion was ordered to stay confined to a lonely shelter with little human contact.
With great respect to the family of Jeremiah Eskew-Sheban, the case for Onion was finally agreed upon and settled, and the dog was freed to The Lexus Project.
A memorial to Jeremiah Eskew-Shaban will be placed in a Henderson park and paid for by The Lexus Project.
"The litigation has been dismissed, and Onion has been relocated permanently to an animal RESCUE. Out of respect for the family of Jeremiah Eskew-Shahan we will make no further comments on this case."
Rest in peace young Jeremiah Eskew-Shahan.

They say great taste is timeless - but then again, so is bad taste. Despite the time we spend looking for stuff to make you salivate with desire, occasionally we stumble upon things that elicit a very different oral reaction. Sometimes we shudder and move on, and then there are times that the object in question is just too awful to keep to ourselves, so we bring it to you as a Doubtblush.
Often, our rule of thumb for online shopping is this: if even the model can't make it look good, then we have no chance. Such is the case with the Tiered Ruffle Blouse ($199) by Carolina K. First, why does it have to be brown on brown? Ew. Second...wait, scratch that. We don't need to list all the reasons why we won't be wearing this ruffled "blouse" that looks like it's been sewn together from dingy old petticoats.
Gah! It's hideous!
I think I just threw up a little in my mouth. Mosdef a Doubtblush!
Made even worse (is that possible?) by the.....what IS she wearing on bottom? Could they be SKANTS:
and DON'T click that link unless you're ready to have your eyeballs scalded - you've been warned!
Someone actually designed this? WOW.

Patenting Aggregation of Notifications
By ColmSmyth on Dec 09, 2004
When I saw the title of a blog Patent Pending: Centralized alert and notifications repository, manager, and viewer, I thought I must be misreading it. I mean you just need to do a Google search for "aggregation of notifications" to know that this has been done before. The open-source Glow project had this openly on the radar even before we had implemented IM and integrated mail. And there is prior art for a notification user interface in the form of icons and tooltips on desktop toolbars, and modern communication clients are expected to provide a unified user interface to content, including "notifications". Not to mention Jabber's framework for notifications or RSS feeds for notification of new addressable content.
With patents, the devil is in the details so maybe there is some innovation in there somewhere but it doesn't bode well from that blog title (I can't read further because according to patent law, triple damages are applicable for prior knowledge infringement as soon as the patent issues, and for this reason Sun requires it's engineers not to look at patents, even if they seem to be bunkum). Maybe somebody less constrained can take a closer look and see if it needs debunking.
Update: My subconscious sent an interrupt to my forebrain with another possible Google search: "federating notifications" which throws up a Citeseer page with a list of probably relevant references using the synonym "event".

Just north of Charlotte in the Town of Mooresville, I stumbled upon a very unique wine shop and it's part of a very unique winery that has a very unique way of doing things. Intrigued?
Well then, this wine shop is managed by a guy who really didn't want the job, at first. But after working to help set the store up and while sipping a glass of their Old Vine Zinfandel in his backyard, he fell in love with the whole unique idea. Now are you intrigued?
What if I told you that they make over 60 wines but don't grow a single grape? Oh, so now you're intrigued!
Thistle Meadow Wines is located on Main Street in downtown Mooresville, NC. It is managed by Hugh and Connie Sykes who are a real hoot and just plain good people. And yes, I can say "they are a hoot". I think the fact that the owner and winemaker of Thistle Meadow Winery is affectionately referred to as "Crazy" Tom, gives me license to use the word "hoot".
Thistle's approach to winemaking is to buy juice made from where the best grapes are grown, from all around the world, and make their wine in small batches. Want a wine made from grapes grown in France, New Zealand, South Africa or Australia? They have them. How about Germany, Chile, Italy or California? They have them too and many more. So how do they obtain all this grape juice from everywhere? It's probably a closely guarded secret, but the results of their efforts are not.
My wine tasting started off with "Hooker White" and ended with "Horse Stomp Red". Along the way I enjoyed Roaring Gap White, Ruisseau Blanc, South Fork Red, Nile Red, North Fork Red, Feather Bed Red, Tom's Special White, Old Vine Zinfandel, Turkey Knob Red, Tom's Special Red, Chickadee Red, Lucky Black and Sweet Holler White. Regrettably, I missed out on their Italian Stud which comes with the disclaimer - "The Winery assumes no responsibility for sudden passionate desires. Faint hearts beware."
They not only have a wine bar and sell their wines, they also sell unique wine merchandise, offer services like private wine tastings and private parties; as well as private labeling of wines and custom blending. Tessa Miller, their Director of Event Planning, specializes in making your wishes come true.
In case you are sufficiently intrigued, they have a Grand Opening this Thursday, October 11th, from 4 until 6 PM. There will be a ribbon cutting, food, wine and loads of fun!
If you miss the Grand Opening you can still come by and experience Thistle Meadow Wines during their regular hours. Taste the world at Thistle Meadow Wines. www.thistlemeadowwinery.com/mooresville-wine-shop.asp

Sergio Garcia, Tiger Woods — Getty Images
After the horn blew for darkness on Saturday at TPC Sawgrass, Tiger was asked about the incident that happened on the second hole during the third round where Garcia hit a bad shot and immediately looked in Tiger's direction, saying after that he felt like Woods had pulled a club as Garcia was starting to address his ball which got the crowd to cheer in Sergio's backswing.
[Related: Images from Tiger Woods win, Sergio Garcia's collapse at TPC]
"The marshals, they told me he already hit, so I pulled a club and was getting ready to play my shot, and then I hear his comments afterwards and (it's) not real surprising that he's complaining about something," Woods said.
Asked after if the two talked about the incident, Tiger said, "We didn't do a lot of talking."
Sergio didn't let Tiger get the last words in on this, telling the media on Saturday evening, "I'm not going to lie, he's not my favorite guy to play with. He's not the nicest guy on tour."
Garcia had a chance to catch Woods on Sunday at the Players, making birdie on the par-5 16th to tie for the lead, but an errant tee shot on the famed 17th and an equally as bad second attempt left Sergio with a quadruple-bogey 7 on the par-3 that dashed his chances at a second Players Championship trophy.
It was a fun week up until that point for Sergio, but it just seems whenever Tiger is atop the leaderboard, something happens to Garcia down the stretch, and we saw that on Sunday at Sawgrass.

During his time as a crewchief, McReynolds was considered one of the top minds in the business, with a Daytona 500 victory among his 23 wins. A quick search of the racing records shows that McReynolds was caught by the tech inspectors more than once, and he'll tell you there were many more times that nobody knew about.
"I think that rule breaking is looked at differently because of the way NASCAR is approaching it today," he says. "My hand was slapped more times than you would ever imagine. But back then they didn't fine me, they didn't suspend me, and they didn't take points away. They would simply confiscate whatever it was they found and say, 'Don't do that again.' But now the stakes are far greater in terms of points, prize money, and the prestige of winning. I believe NASCAR finally decided the old way of doing things simply wasn't working. They would take parts away that didn't meet the rules, and the teams would just go out and make something even better. So they decided to get their attention with their wallets. Taking away team points is also a big deal, because how can you put a price on points if even the loss of a few can potentially cause you to miss the Chase?"
"I call it 'micro-cheating,'" says Lowe's Motor Speedway's Humpy Wheeler. "That is what we are seeing more of today than anything else. You can't sneak the big things past anymore. NASCAR has gotten more sophisticated in its inspection processes. Still, any form of cheating is not good for the sport. It's not good for the sponsors. This is especially true if a guy has won a race and he's caught cheating.
"Where we really need to be concerned with cheating is if it can cause harm to a driver. I'll give you an example. I bought a race car once that had run Daytona. We were going to use it here for testing and different things. But then the guy working on it called me one day and said, 'You've got to see this.' I went over and found that the car had aluminum rollbars on it. This was when magnetized paint was just becoming available. NASCAR had figured it out pretty quickly, but that car had made it into one Daytona race. So I think that cheating really becomes a problem in the sport when it adds an element of danger."
In the '60s, '70s, and even early '80s, it was easier to use tricks that would provide a significant advantage on the racetrack. NASCAR simply didn't provide enough well-trained manpower in the tech area, and the skills of the cheaters were far ahead of the cops. One of racing's most loved elder statesmen, Darrell Waltrip, was known to roll through inspection with a set of wheels on his car that had several pounds of weight hidden on them. He would be terribly slow in the beginning laps of the race, but after the first pit stop when standard wheels were bolted in place, he would suddenly get a lot faster. It took quite a while before anybody realized the trick, which allowed him to race a car that was significantly lighter than the rest of the field.

Jan. 25, 2005
The 2005 UCLA women's water team will be full of talent on many levels, receiving one of the best recruiting classes in the nation as well as returning four players from the Olympic team who red-shirted last season. Coming off a 22-5 record in 2004, this year's team looks to improve and bring back the NCAA title to UCLA. The lone senior on the team is Natalie Golda and her presence and leadership will be important for all the players, especially the eight freshmen.
Adam Krikorian said of this year, "This team is probably going to be the most talented team that we have ever had and it certainly will be the deepest. Our strengths are going to be our talent and our phenomenal team speed. It is an interesting group because out of the 23 people total on the team, over half of them were not on the team last year. On paper, the talent is incredible, but teams aren't created by talent. The key for us this year is playing together."
At the center forward position this season will be sophomores Kacy Kunkel and Brittney Bowlus and freshman Brittany Rowe. The two sophomores both received significant amounts of playing time last season and are expected to be key players this year.
"Kacy and Brittney stepped into a real tough situation as true freshmen and played great last year. They gained a tremendous amount of experience that will help them this year," said Krikorian. "Kacy is very strong. She provides us with a lot of strength at that position. Brittney also is strong but has a little bit more speed and can be effective in other ways."
Joining the sophomores will be Rowe, who is ambidextrous and can shoot with either hand, making her a deadly weapon. Krikorian said of Brittany, "Brittany Rowe is a very talented kid who, when she gains confidence, will be a big weapon for us. Her unique shooting ability will help her at center forward and on the perimeter throughout her career at UCLA."
The two true defenders on this year's team are juniors Lauren Heineck and Katie Flanagan and they will make up the foundation of the Bruin defense.
Heineck proved herself to be a strong defensive force last season. "I would consider Lauren to be one of the best defenders in the country," said Krikorian. "She has really been able to dominate in her first two years and I expect her to do so again this season."
Flanagan also gained much experience last year and will contribute to the team. According to coach Krikorian, "She has great leg strength and can at times physically out-muscle her opponents in the center defender position."
A utility player is an extremely versatile water polo player who can play the center forward, center defender, or driver position. Senior Natalie Golda and juniors Thalia Munro, Amber Stachowski, and Kristina Kunkel fill this role as some of the most talented players on the team. Golda is the only senior on the roster and has Olympic and national team experience.
Krikorian said, "Overall, she is probably the best defender in the country in terms of the whole package. She can use that strength to be successful at either the defender position or the center position, but Natalie's big strength and deadliest weapon is her perimeter shot. We are going to rely on that to be very aggressive offensively."
Krikorian feels that Munro will be his fastest player and best defender. "She is a great perimeter defender as well as a great center defender. She can also be creative and post up on the offensive side. Overall she is probably the best defender in the country."
Stachowski and Kunkel are also extremely talented players both on the offensive and defensive side. "They are feisty, creative, quick, and mobile in the water," said Krikorian. Kristina was the leading scorer for the team last season with 44 goals.
The driver position will have the most depth with many players competing for time. The most talented driver is sophomore Kelly Rulon, who played on the Olympic team last year. The Bruins will depend on her leadership to have an outstanding season. Krikorian said of Kelly: "She is a great leader, very knowledgeable, has a very keen sense of the game, something that can't be taught. We are going to rely on Kelly to help us in all areas of the game."
For the first time in a while, the team will have two left-handers. Freshman Gabrielle Domanic, who was an alternate on the Olympic team, and sophomore Jenna Murphy will give this unique strength to the Bruin team.
"Both girls have great vision playing on the right side of the pool. They will provide us with left handed threats on the right side of the pool and both will be very important on 6-5 situations," said coach Krikorian.
Other notable drivers include junior Katherine Belden, sophomore Molly Cahill, and freshmen Jillian Kraus and Monique Blanchard.
"Katherine and Molly have some unique offensive abilities and gained a lot of experience last year," said Krikorian. "Jillian and Monique will be true freshmen and they are two of the fastest players in the country. They will help us with their speed and will only improve as the season goes on."
Junior Tahlia Kerr and sophomore Emily Feher compose UCLA's goalkeeping tandem, along with freshman Kathryn Krumpholz.
Last season as a freshman, Emily started and played most of the games, allowing 4.66 goals per game. She had 169 saves on the season. Tahlia had a 4.00 goals against average and had 72 saves for the season. They are essential to UCLA's success this season.
"Emily and Tahlia are both knowledgeable and have great work ethics," said Krikorian. "Both do a nice job of passing and are really solid in all areas of the game."
Krikorian on the upcoming season: "We have so many newcomers that the most important thing is to get to know each other, so that the girls understand each others' tendencies and personalities. This ultimately will bring our team and their talent together to work as one. As we gain experience, we will certainly improve. Our goal is to play the best water polo possible when April and May come. We have our eyes focused on a national championship, but there are so many other essentials that we need to get done first."

TC TO JOHN A. CARLYLE ; 9 March 1850; DOI: 10.1215/lt-18500309-TC-JAC-01; CL 25: 44-45
Chelsea, 9 March, 1850—
Dear Brother—I have sent the nice little Letter of Canada Jane forward to Dumfries; and I here return the other. A Note from Dumfries came along with it, which is also here. I sent Jean a Pamphlet by post last night, she seemed so impatient. I also started some speculation to her about getting a better House for Jenny in the Troquier suburbs or some "nice place," where one might have a furnished room, and run away to write "Latter-Day Pamphts" without some of the very sad accompaniments that attend them here! Which speculation I already perceive, this morning, not to be likely to hold water. However, Jean was instructed to take it only as a dream, and to do nothing practical without consulting me.— Out of this sad wearing whirlpool, if my health do not considerably mend, I must get: but the place whitherward—is very difficult to fix on, and will hardly be in Dumfries I doubt.
The other evening, came that effigies1 of Dante's mask. Do you know anything about the authenticity of the mask itself? Here is the engraving to you,—yours by a better right than mine. The Alexander2 who makes me the gift is not well known to me; I have a dim remembrance of having had some letters from him formerly and of having rather repelled them.— Today there is some foreboding of Sun getting thro' the mist: I design to get out and walk, being good for nothing else.— — I am grieved indeed to hear of my good old Mother confined to bed. Oh take care of her, especially in this wild weather! And tell me soon that she is in her usual way again. I feel what a mercy that is,—and that it cannot last always with us! Has she plenty of Books to read? Books are easily sent now.— Blackie scrawls me a Letter (came last night);3 if the blue stamp will carry that too, you shall have it. Adieu: my love to all.
T. Carlyle

Living where I do I tend to cross the Annapolis River Causeway at least two times per day. From the tidal generating station and mackerel fishing to the flying foam and large mysterious bumps just before you reach Annapolis Royal, there are some interesting things that happen along the causeway. One of the things I always enjoy about going across this structure is the chance to have a look at the scallop boats which are moored there. These are among the boats which venture out into the Bay of Fundy to fish for the famous Digby scallops.
While these boats add to the scenery of my drive, they are also quite interesting to watch. In the dead of winter you can see crews rowing out to their vessels. I always marvel at how cold this work must be. When they return from the bay you can see the odd scallop shell fly out of an opening on the side of the boat as the crew shuck their catch. Far more than scenery, these are hardworking members of our community.
Having spent years watching this spot I know that the water is rarely ever glassy calm. Between the wind and the tidal currents there is usually some disturbance on the surface of the water. This morning when I saw the reflection of the boats mirrored in the water I decided that it would be a good idea to pull the car over to get some pictures.
All for now,

So I am trying to determine what kind of subjunctive is being used in "if...then" utterences such as: "If you are hungry, eat something." "If you are tired, go to sleep." etc.
These phrases seem to have an unspoken "should" as in: "If you are hungry then you should eat something." and "If you are happy and you know it, then you should clap your hands."
Would this be zero conditional because first conditional seems like it would be: "If you are tired, you shall go to sleep." Second Conditional would be: "If you were happy and you knew it, you should (?) clap your hands." And Third Conditional would be: "If you had been happy and you had known it, then you should have clapped your hands."
Thoughts? Is "should" somehow different in this situation than if it were "will/would have/would"?

They're available! Uniden's two newest digital scanners are now on the retail market and flying off the shelves.
The BCD536 and the BCD436, unveiled in a slick Uniden video last fall, represent the latest in scanner radio technology, as listeners keep pace with public safety radio communications.
They replace Uniden's high-end BCD996/BCD396 digital scanners and incorporate a feature found on the newer HomePatrol-1: self-programming by simply entering a local zip code.
Both new models also receive APCO P25 digital radio transmissions – the unofficial industry standard - plus less common EDACS and LTR systems, still used by some agencies.
The BCD536/436 are equipped for APCO25 "Phase II," a technical upgrade that will bring more efficiency to large digital trunked systems, such as those used by Connecticut and Massachusetts state police.
In addition to the self-programming feature, Uniden has introduced a "siren app," which lets users control the BCD-536 remotely from their smartphones and tablets.
"The Uniden siren app gives you the freedom like never before to roam around your house or around the country, while still keeping completely in touch with and in control of your scanner," Uniden states in promotional material.
Like the HomePatrol, the new scanners include a four gigabyte SD card containing the entire radio database for the U.S. and Canada, and they can record and save audio.
"These radios are in high demand," says Alex Lentini, president of Lentini Communications, a successful scanner and ham radio dealer in the Hartford area.
Lentini told Examiner.com that he received a first shipment of six BCD436 scanners, and four of them sold the first day.
He attributes some of the popularity to people monitoring the nearby New Britain police radio system, which moved to a X2TDMA digital format last year.
The BCD536 retails for around $600, while the portable BCD436, with no wi-fi remote option, sells for around $500.
Public safety agencies are buying them, too.
Westport (Conn.) Fire Department recently purchased five BCD536 scanners which will be placed in fire stations as backup tone alerting receivers because of their fire tone-out decode capability, said Lt. Matt Cohen, who oversees his agency's communications.

Do you enjoy a good brownie?
Okay, so that was a stupid question. Since OF COURSE you're interested, and already hungry, we're telling you to check out the delicious offerings from Colorado-based Aspen Brownie Works. We were lucky enough to try several flavors, and particularly enjoyed the raspberry and chocolate chip versions. None of these squishy, crumbly chocolate treats were less than yummy, though! Boxes range in price from $7 to $67, and the brownies themselves are available in full, half, and mini sizes - since only you know how you're indulging yourself, and what for.
Full disclosure: Outblush received a free sample of this product.

If you're a lover of pop music, chances are you have more than one Katy Perry song in your iPod. Perry came into stardom in 2007 with the release of her single "I Kissed a Girl." Soon, girls around the country were singing along to all of the songs, including her hit "California Gurls" featuring Snoop Dogg.
Perry is no stranger to headlines, and when she's in them, she knows how to handle it. A recent feud with Miley Cyrus over a kiss during a show has fans patiently awaiting a response, which will be heard around the globe.
Perry's music isn't the only thing fans are obsessed with her, as her love life is always a hot topic of conversation as well. The singer married Russell Brand in 2010, divorced him in 2012. She then began dating John Mayer in 2013. That relationship has also come and gone, as rumors began swirling that Mayer's cheating was the reason for the split.
Whether she is rocking a red carpet or raising the roof at political fundraisers, the songbird has always been a style icon. Often seen at various fashion shows, Perry can rock the latest trends, while starting new ones with her colorful choice of attire.
Take a look at how Perry has changed through the years.

that time, the NFL was a loose collection of teams that really had
limited exposure. Rozelle decided to act on behalf of all teams, and
negotiated a contract with a TV network (CBS) that allowed them to get
that exposure on a national scale.
But it did so much more. A group turned around and sued the NFL
alleging that the NFL was essentially a monopoly, and thus violated
anti-trust regulations. The court ruled that the "pooling" of rights
by all the teams to conclude an exclusive contract between the league
and CBS was illegal. Undeterred, Rozelle worked with some allies in
congress to frame the situation a little differently, and the Sports
Broadcasting Act of 1961 was passed. This act "permits certain joint
broadcasting agreements among the major professional sports and
permits the sale of a television 'package' to the network or networks"
which is essentially what happens today.
And, by the way, it also limits the games that can be shown by
including the blackout rule.
In any event, by that law, the NFL received its first level of
anti-trust exemption.
Later, in about 1970, when the upstart AFL came along, the NFL played
nice and merged with them. Although there are a lot of good reasons
to do so, one of them certainly was anti-trust. And not surprisingly,
congress once again stepped in to ratify the way that the league was
established, thus solidfying their position.
Over the next 30+ years, there have been many claims against the NFL's
anti-trust status. One of the biggest challenges came from the USFL
from 83-85, which was taking on the NFL on the corners, but not head
on. Donald Trump was one of the people who thought the NFL could and
should be challenged and wanted to move to be a fall league and take
on that exemption. The other owners thought better of it, and
ultimately there was no challenge.
Then, about 2 years ago, Senator Arlen Specter and a couple of others
decided to "look into" the NFL's anti-trust exemption because of the
NFL Sunday Ticket on Direct TV and Comcast's legal battle. Again,
nothing came of it, but there's still some room to re-open the file.
Channeling the spirit of Rozelle, the NFL pulled an end-run of its
own. A couple of years ago, they negotiated a contract with Reebok to
be the exclusive apparel provider for the league. Prior to that, each
team could negotiate its own deal with a supplier, and the league also
purveyed suppliers. Feeling slighted by the NFL's actions, one of the
suppliers filed suit under anti-trust laws claiming - as the TV case
did before it - that the NFL could not act as a single entity and
enter into an agreement. The courts sided with the NFL, and the
suppliers appealed.
The appelate court upheld the judgement.
Then, the NFL did something unexpected. *They* appealed to the US
Supreme Court for a hearing. Now why would they do that if they won?
Because they want the Supreme Court to uphold their standing as
anti-trust exempt, and to allow for a broad interpretation of that
ruling. That would essentially allow them to act in what amounts to a
monopolistic manner, without fear of there being "frivolous lawsuits,"
The NHL and NBA saw it as a good thing for their sports, and also
signed on to be involved in the ruling as "friends of the court"....in
essence to ride the coattails if they can.
Of course this all has some bearing on the labor issues that are still
hanging out there. The NFL undoubtedly feels it has more leverage if
they get this ruling. And the TV deals can go however they want -
unless and until Sen Specter decides to get involved again.
Remember, in 1961, the legislature overtuned what the court found.
Could it happen again? Who knows.
But one thing I can tell you for sure is that such a ruling is bound
to be bad for the smaller operations, and probably for us fans, too,
in the long run.

Yield: 10 to 12 servings
Cook's notes: Many markets sell butternut squash that is peeled and cubed.
1. Adjust oven rack to bottom third. Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Pat beef dry and season with salt and pepper. In a heavy ovenproof pot, heat 2 tablespoons oil on medium-high heat. When oil begins to shimmer, add 1/3 of meat in single layer, leaving space between meat. Set a rimmed baking sheet next to the stove. Using tongs, turn meat once it has browned and brown on opposite side. Place on rimmed baking sheet and add another batch of meat, adding more oil as needed. Keep the pot hot enough so meat browns rather than steams.
2. Reduce heat to medium and add carrots, celery, onions and garlic; cook, stirring occasionally, until well browned, about 10 minutes. Push vegetables to one side of the pan. Add tomato paste to side without vegetables and cook 2 minutes, using a spatula to scrape up browned bits on pot. Add vinegar and cook 2 minutes, stirring frequently. Add wine, bay leaf and thyme. Increase heat to high and boil for 4 minutes.
3. Add broth and water, beef and any accumulated juices. Bring to a simmer; cover and place in oven for 2 1/2 hours. Remove from oven and uncover. Place a colander over a second pot and cautiously pour stew into colander. Allow it to rest 10 minutes. Remove meat from vegetable-herb mixture and set aside. Discard solids left in colander. Using a skimmer or a large spoon, skim fat from surface of broth; return to heat and bring to simmer on medium-high heat. Add potatoes and carrots; simmer 10 minutes. Add beef and butternut squash; simmer until vegetables are tender, about 10 minutes. Ladle into bowls and garnish as desired.

I.....am an emotional wreck. It's been a long, long time since I've felt this way. Self-depreciating thoughts attack me from all angles. Self-consciousness bordering on paranoia are at an all time high. I feel like a failure.
I've been going to physical therapy for my knee for a couple of months now (tendonitis at the top, arthritis in two places, and a 3 inch cyst in the back). It's helping the tendonitis located at the top of my knee, but my knee joint will never be better. Arthritis doesn't go away, especially when it is nearly bone on bone. Right now, I'm doing all I can to avoid a knee replacement, which the orthopedic doctor told me is probably in my future. He also told me that for every pound I lose, it takes 8 lbs of pressure off of my knees. I'm 37 years old, not 87. Underneath all of this fat and arthritis is an athlete. I know there is. I long to walk long distances and to run 5K's, but it's hard to do that when walking around the block causes severe pain and limping.
I'm tired of the well-wishers. The people who are trying to be surface-level supportive, but really just make me feel like crap - I know this is my issue, not theirs. Like my Mom who is now an empty nester and walking on a regular basis and has lost 40 lbs. I'm so proud of her, and happy for her. But, she gives me all her fat clothes and then talks about how much weight she is losing. I know it is without ill-intent...and I'm so grateful to not have to buy new clothes this winter, but it's like a knife to the gut every time.
And then, there's my co-worker - a friend of mine actually. She's thin. And single. And has no kids. She doesn't have the constraints of having to work around other people's schedules. If she wants to go to the gym at 10:00 PM, off she goes. She doesn't understand how little time I have to myself. Or that I'm homebound in the evenings/nights because my husband works 2nd shift, so I can't just pick up and go to the gym. And I feel judged by her because I keep failing to lose weight. The "are you still_____?", "why don't you just______?', "how come you don't_____?" comments are not helpful.
I feel that sense of disdain when people look at me.....I often feel embarrassed, ashamed, and I don't want to go places. I just can't seem to get by the emotional part of weight loss. It has always been my biggest barrier. And now I have a bum knee that restricts my activity. I have been contemplating bariatric surgery. I don't want bariatric surgery. But, I have a consult appointment next week. Scheduling that appointment made me feel weak, like a failure. I don't know if I'm going to go thru with going to the appointment...but then if I don't go, I know I will feel like I wasted another opportunity.
I feel stuck.

Hi there Cara,
For me, it seems like the journey is all about little itty bitty baby-steps. And not looking outside yourself for approval OR to compare (ever!). Finding the dimmest little Spark inside yourself and fanning it, knowing that YOU.Are.Worth the effort. Getting to a place of loving yourself, in spite of it ALL (and them ALL). Both Don and Beth are amazing beings who have dumped bunches of pounds. They're good folks to listen to!
Come over the the Thanksgiving Community and begin the practice of digging up some things you are grateful for in your life-as-it-is. I TRY to post there everyday, but I don't always make it. It is an important practice though and will help you in the long run to move into a more positive zone.
FYI: ATRANSFORMATION, Kathy, the team leader, found her husband at the bottom of their swimming pool just over 3 mo. ago. She has really been walking "through the valley of the shadow of death." But she's beginning to see the smallest glimmer now and then. Her feeling of sense of loss is quite overpowering at times.
Anyway, it would be lovely to have you join us!

I've lost 240 pounds with Spark, not surgery. It can happen for you too. Sparkmail me.

So sorry to hear of your struggles!
Certainly can relate, having been there, done that...yet somehow we all pull ourselves out of the trough. For instance just look at your last blog post and see how great you felt while walking! Your knee will bounce back and so will YOU!
Focus on the things that are under your control right now. Our food choices is the #1 thing that is under our control, requires no extra expense, no extra time demands. We can begin to make better food choices immediately and you will feel SO much better for jumping back to it again!
Really pleased to see your post! Remember your SparkFamily is here 24/7!
