Jordan Najvar and Jerod Monk have taken their combined career 55 catches and 10 total touchdowns to the next phases of their lives. They combind for 73 games appeared in for the Bears. That is a lot of experience to lose at one position. In their place is a former offensive tackle that shifted to tight end when Najvar was injured for a few games last year, a junior college transfer from 2013 that played very little last year, and two true freshman.
|Appeared in all 13 games as OL and Special Teams
|2nd year JUCO transfer, redshirted in 2013
|True Freshman, Early Enrollment
Tre'von Armstead is a large, and angry looking football player. Serriously, look at that profile image of him. The snarl, the glare and the all-around attitude. That is your starting tight end right now. He has lost some weight since transitioning outside from tackle, and looked quite good during the Spring game. He caught the ball well in warmups and had a great catch and run in the early scripted session of the scrimmage. Armstead will be a tremendous blocker for the position, something he did well in spot-duty last season. That is the primary role for a tight end in the Bears offense. Can they seal the edge on running plays, and catch a little bit underneath.
Every year, some fans and experts (including myself in either category) expect the Bears to pass more to their tight ends, the last two years especially. The thinking went that the coaching staff is working with a new quarterback and would give him easier throws and work him into the offense. Wrong. As Coach Briles says, they are trying to score a touchdown on every play. Doesn't matter if Nick Florence with his at best average arm-strength is out there, or Bryce Petty with little to no experience. So, what should we expect from Armstead? A lot of blocking with maybe 10 or so receptions.
|Tight End Eligibility
|Gus Penning
|Tre'Von Armstead
|Jordan Feuerbacher
|Blake Mahon
It is unproven depth, but the Bears do have some intriguing options for the tight end spot. Gus Penning is currently listed as a co-starter with Armstead. The junior is much more of a pass-catcher than Armstead, and at 40 pounds lighter, will not have the same blocking strength. Penning was 3rd string last year and did not register a catch or any statistics.
The Bears will also have two freshman on the roster, with Jordan Feuerbacher graduating early and being with the Bears through spring drills. Joining him in the fall will be Blake Mahon, a fellow 3-star tight end. Both are right around 6-3, 250 pounds. The Bears will have some big bodies to put in as that extra blocker.
With a junior, sophomore and two freshman, the Bears are pretty balanced. More than likely, Feuerbacher or Mahon will redshirt, givin them some seperation in their eligibility. With all four players having at least 2 years left in Waco, the Bears are doubtful to take a tight end in the 2014 class.
With all four tight ends returning next year, barring any transfers or injuries, the Bears should be very solid at this position next year. Armstead has a chance to be a 3-year starter for the Bears, and develop into a dominating blocking tight end. He has exceptional size for the position, and if he can even be an average receiver, he has a chance to be a professional. Penning and the two freshman are rather large question marks, as we have simply not seen anything from those three.
The Bears should have two of their tight ends on the roster for four or five years, but the big question is, how do those two 3-star recruits project? Also, how much do the Bears need from either of them, considering Briles refusal to integrate the position into the passing game more than as a redzone "trick". This is a tough one for me to project, so I am playing it safe.
Are you big and can you block? Good! Then you are a capable tight end in this offense. Jordan Najvar is a fringe NFL tight end, and he could only muster 10 catches each of the last two years. He is an All-Big 12 player, with good blocking and good receiving skills. This is just not a critical position for Baylor.
The Bears have a tight end unit that should be together a while, just like the last duo in Jordan Najvar and Jerdon Monk. We are going to see a lot of career games for Armstead, Feuerbacher and Mahon, though probably not a lot of statistical production. The tight ends don't have the glammor and the upside of some other positions, but they are setup very well for the future of this team.

Based on the epic graphic novel by Frank Miller, "300" is a ferocious retelling of the ancient Battle of Thermopylae in which King Leonidas (Gerard Butler) and 300 Spartans fought to the death against Xerxes and his massive Persian army. Facing insurmountable odds, their valor and sacrifice inspire all of Greece to unite against their Persian enemy, drawing a line in the sand for democracy. The film brings Miller's (Sin City) acclaimed graphic novel to life by combining live action with virtual backgrounds that capture his distinct vision of this ancient historic tale.

Sound It Out [2011]
- 4812 reads
Sound It Out [2011]
Sound It Out records is the last Independent record shop in the north east. As much about the people as the records, this amazing documentary is a tale that many of us could tell, the never ending hunt for the holy grails of vinyl and the collecting of records that at times never get more than a couple of listens. It's an ode the glory days of hanging out in a record shop and an insight to the utter mentalists (we include ourselves in this) that still spend more time than is healthy sifting through antiquated slabs of wax.

Watch Dave Matthews Band's new tour warm up videos
As Dave Matthews Band prepares to hit the road for its annual summer road trip across the United States — which will visit the Marcus Amphitheater July 2 during Summerfest this year — the band is helping fans get in the live mood with the release of two new "Summer Tour Warm Up" videos, and the promise of more to come.
Featuring a look in at shows from last year's summer trek, the two videos represent the band's past and present. The first video — recorded live last May at The Woodlands, Texas — is a nine-minute romp through one of the band's biggest hits and a live staple, "Ants Marching," which anchored its 1994 major label debut, "Under the Table and Dreaming," but also dates back to the band's earliest days and is featured in its 1993 independent live debut, "Remember Two Things." The second video — from the next night in Dallas — is a new live favorite, "Rooftop," from its most recent studio album, 2012's "Away From the World." Watch both videos below. And, as the tour approaches, keep an eye on the band's YouTube channel for new live videos. »Read Full Blog Post

Making a 'Connection'with the opera guild
The annual dinner meeting of the Upper Ohio Valley Opera Guild held Nov. 25 at St. Florian Hall in Wintersville included the announcement of this year's $1,000 scholarship recipient; the presentation of the slate of board members; and a repeat performance by the Youngstown Connection.
Event coordinator Anita Jackson, first vice president, welcomed the estimated 140 in attendance and opened the evening with a prayer. Tom Graham led the audience in singing the national anthem, which was followed by the treasurer's report given by Joe Leonard.
Joyce Ryan-Orlando, immediate past president and chair of the nominating committee, presented the slate of board members who will be continuing for the 2014-16 term, including Dottie Bossert, Margaret Frederick, Christine Hargrave, Teresa Kropka, Mary Jo Rinaldi and Ryan-Orlando.
Josephine Irvine-Groves, scholarship chair and board member, announced that Caitlin Luck, a music major at Slippery Rock University, is the recipient of the guild's $1,000 scholarship.
The evening also included the participation of Mary Jo Rinaldi, guild president, and dinner music was provided by Theresa Jurasko, coordinator of music ministry at the Franciscan University of Steubenville.
After the business meeting and dinner, the Youngstown Connection performed under the direction of Carol Baird. The group consists of high school and college-age students who sing and dance to tunes from Broadway musicals, patriotic and contemporary tunes.

LeBron James may have reserved SportsCenter's NBA coverage for the next three months, but that doesn't mean there aren't other moves still to be made in the offseason.
The Washington Wizards, Milwaukee Bucks and Houston Rockets are still keeping the rumor mill busy as July heats up. With that in mind, let's dig into the latest rumblings surrounding the three franchises.
Washington Pursuing DeJuan Blair
Marc Stein of ESPN filled fans in on the latest regarding Washington's pursuit of DeJuan Blair:
Wiz have strong DeJuan Blair interest and, according to ESPN sources, in talks to see if sign-&-trade possible before Mavs must renounce him— Marc Stein (@ESPNSteinLine) July 14, 2014
How far will Washington advance this year?
Blair posted nightly averages of 6.4 points and 4.7 rebounds last year for the Dallas Mavericks behind 53.4 percent shooting from the field. The Wizards have Marcin Gortat and Nene down low, but they could really use some more depth. Nene missed some time due to injury last year, and Gortat is 30 years old, so Blair would be a solid pickup.
Washington lost Trevor Ariza but added tested veteran Paul Pierce and have a realistic chance to compete in a wide open Eastern Conference. Grabbing another big man with playoff experience would certainly help the Wizards' case.
The Heat obviously lost James, the Bulls are relying on Derrick Rose's tenuous knees and the Pacers fell apart late last season. Who's to say Washington can't make the Finals with Blair in tow?
Milwaukee to Trade Ersan Ilyasova?
Gery Woelfel of the Racine Journal Times noted that the Bucks may be making a trade sooner rather than later:
Bucks are still shopping Ilyasova and, as an NBA official added "shopping him hard."— Gery Woelfel (@GeryWoelfel) July 14, 2014
Ersan Ilyasova will make $7.9 million in each of the next two years, and Milwaukee may want to clear up some more space under the cap, especially since he saw dips in his production last year. He did average 11.2 points and 6.2 rebounds a night but struggled from behind the three-point line (28.2 percent).
Ilyasova also dealt with nagging injuries and discussed some of his frustrations during the regular season, via Lang Greene of Basketball Insiders:
When you go through a season like this and your name comes up [in rumors] it is a little frustrating. But I still feel myself as part of this franchise. I'm hopeful we can find the right pieces for the team so we can play much better because we really need it. I want to be part of a playoff team and that's what I'm looking forward to, [the franchise] building a better team – a playoff team.
It's disappointing when you go through a season like this. Especially after last year when we made the playoffs and played against last year's champions (Miami).
Sounds like it might be mutually beneficial if Milwaukee finds a way to move the forward.
What's Next for Houston?
ESPN's Stein had some enticing rumors for Houston Rockets fans:
ESPN sources say Rockets promised Bosh they would match on Parsons if he committed and believed they were on brink of commitment from Bosh— Marc Stein (@ESPNSteinLine) July 14, 2014
So look for Rockets to re-enter trade game for longtime Houston target Rajon Rondo as well as try to work their way into mix for Kevin Love— Marc Stein (@ESPNSteinLine) July 14, 2014
At times this offseason, the Rockets have been connected with James, Carmelo Anthony and Chris Bosh, so landing none of the big fish is certainly disappointing. Throw in the fact that they would have matched Dallas' offer sheet for Chandler Parsons, and it is difficult to deal with from a Houston fan's perspective.
Sure, the Rockets added Ariza, but they are clearly looking for more.
The Western Conference is loaded, but there are lots of intriguing pieces in place in Houston with James Harden, Dwight Howard and Ariza.
Adding a point guard like Rajon Rondo would be huge late in games (Houston had turnover problems against Portland in the playoffs), or grabbing Kevin Love would give Howard some help on the boards and stretch opposing defenses when they doubled the center in the paint.
Even in a West that includes the defending champion San Antonio Spurs and the talented Oklahoma City Thunder, among others, it is difficult to imagine a Rockets team with Harden, Howard, Ariza and either Rondo or Love losing early in the playoffs.

Flint residents were shocked by the explosions Tuesday that some accurately described as sounding like a war zone.
Have you ever wondered about the coins that seem to be placed on top of military headstones at cemeteries? You might be surprised to find out their meaning.
It's one of the most heartwarming, sob-inducing sights you'll see on the Internet: the soldier returning home from overseas, surprising his or her child. It never gets old, one of the genuine feel-good moments the Internet lets us see.
Members of the Army and Marine Corps are often taught aggressive driving techniques while they're deployed in areas like Iraq and Afghanistan. And according to insurance company USAA, they're bringing those driving habits home — and causing more accidents as a result.
As a way to celebrate Easter and mark April as the "Month of the Military Child," First Lady Michelle Obama visited hospitalized vets and their families at the Fisher House on Walter Reed National Military Medical Center in Bethesda, MD., today.

Most of the schools making the list were public, including 51 of the 59 highest ranking four-year schools.

The policy known as "don't ask, don't tell," which has been in place since the Clinton administration, became a thing of the past at 12:01 a.m. on Tuesday when the United States became one of more than 40 countries worldwide allowing gays and lesbians to serve openly in the armed forces.
"They will no longer have to lie in order to help protect us," said Senate Armed Services Committee Chairman Carl Levin in a statement. "The end of 'don't ask, don't tell' is an important victory not just for equality, but integrity."

All I need now is a hedgehog or some toads and I'd be all set for a slug free summer
P.S and the best news of all, I just got an allotment that I'm going to be sharing with me dad. I'm so happy.

You could lose hundreds of dollars in minutes at any casino, but to help expand your day with a minimal amount of money, you can play Casino Bingo, which is usually high stakes, as opposed to small bingo halls. And once you join in on the excitement, you could easily accumulate big cash.
Obtain a Bingo calendar. Bingo prices change every day and the time you may want to go could be a special event at the bingo hall and be sold out or cost too much money. Most of the time you will get in for a minimum of $10 to $15.
Purchase your package just outside of the bingo hall. You can purchase a paper package or a video bingo package. If you purchase a video bingo package, you can pay extra to have any add-ons for your video terminal like special games or extra Bingo cards.
Enter the Bingo hall and find a seat. Look for seats close to the preview monitors and Bingo grid so you can easily see and find any numbers you may have missed.
Play the Bingo games. Purchase cards for the special games, if desired. Use the preview monitor to dab numbers before they are called so you are constantly caught up.
Call Bingo if you have covered all of the numbers in the pattern. Scream Bingo loud so that the callers can hear you and make sure that you declare Bingo after the caller has announced the number, not when it is displayed in the monitor.
Save your ticket to win door prizes during intermission. The tickets can also be applied to your casino account to help earn points on a casino card. Saving your Bingo tickets will also help if you win big because they can be used to deduct taxes off of your earnings.
Drink free beverages provided by most of the larger bingo halls. There will usually be soda stations located around, but coffee is available as well.
Log onto your video terminal if you are playing video bingo. Everything is automated, but when bingo balls are called you must use your finger to press the ball so that the cards are marked.
Customize your bingo screen by choosing different dabbers, backgrounds and colors. You can also hide all of your numbers or add extra games if you have credits available.

Fla. man swallowed by sinkhole
By CHRIS O'MEARA
Associated Press
SEFFNER, Fla. — In a matter of seconds, the earth opened under Jeff Bush's bedroom and swallowed him up like something out of a horror movie. About the only thing left was the TV cable running down into the hole.
Bush, 37, was presumed dead Friday, the victim of a sinkhole — a hazard so common in Florida that state law requires home insurers to provide coverage against the danger.
The sinkhole, estimated at 20 feet across and 20 feet deep, caused the home's concrete floor to cave in around 11 p.m. Thursday as everyone in the Tampa-area house was turning in for the night. It gave way with a loud crash that sounded like a car hitting the house and brought Bush's brother running.
Jeremy Bush said he jumped into the hole but couldn't see his brother and had to be rescued himself by a sheriff's deputy who reached out and pulled him to safety as the ground crumbled around him.
"The floor was still giving in and the dirt was still going down, but I didn't care. I wanted to save my brother," Jeremy Bush said through tears Friday in a neighbor's yard. "But I just couldn't do nothing."
He added: "I could swear I heard him hollering my name to help him."
Officials lowered equipment into the sinkhole and saw no signs of life, said Hillsborough County Fire Rescue spokeswoman Jessica Damico.
A dresser and the TV set had vanished down the hole, along with most of Bush's bed.
"All I could see was the cable wire running from the TV going down into the hole. I saw a corner of the bed and a corner of the box spring and the frame of the bed," Jeremy Bush said.
Engineers worked to determine whether the ground was stable enough to support heavy machinery to help them recover the body. Workers with rope tied around them took soil samples from the yard.
Engineers said they may have to demolish the small, sky-blue house, even though from the outside there appeared to be nothing wrong with the four-bedroom, concrete-wall structure, built in 1974.
Florida is highly prone to sinkholes because there are caverns below ground of limestone, a porous rock that easily dissolves in water. A sinkhole near Orlando grew to 400 feet across in 1981 and devoured five sports cars, most of two businesses, a three-bedroom house and the deep end of a swimming pool.
More than 500 sinkholes have been reported in Hillsborough County alone since the government started keeping track in 1954.
, according to the state's environmental agency.
Jeremy Bush said someone came out to the home a couple of months ago to check for sinkholes and other things, apparently for insurance purposes.
"He said there was nothing wrong with the house. Nothing. And a couple of months later, my brother dies. In a sinkhole," Bush said.
Six people were at the home at the time, including Jeremy Bush's wife and his 2-year-old daughter. The brothers worked maintenance jobs, including picking up trash along highways.

Idled Paint Line Will Be Restarted
BEECH BOTTOM – A paint line idled with the bankruptcy of RG Steel is being restarted under its new owner, Jupiter Aluminum.
Jupiter, headquartered in Illinois with plants in Indiana, purchased the paint line, once a part of RG Steel's Wheeling Corrugating division, several months ago at auction. The firm originally intended to relocate the line, but officials realized very early on that it made more sense to keep it in Beech Bottom.
Jupiter buys aluminum scrap from manufacturers, scrapyards and customers that it melts to make coils for a variety of end uses, many of them in the building product market.
The company has signed a 10-year lease for warehouse space at the old corrugating property, now owned by Hackman Capital and the Business Development Corp. of the Northern Panhandle. The deal gives Jupiter about 110,000 square feet of operating space, including the old administration building.
In addition to the paint line, Jupiter also purchased a slitter line, giving it the capability of cutting coils to different widths, which will be installed at the Beech Bottom site sometime in the next two weeks. Packaging equipment also will be added.
"We'd always looked for ways to extend our business into different product lines or widths," said Jupiter President Paul-Henri Chevalier, adding that the new mill expands his company's product capabilities. "We heard this place was for sale – we looked at it and it was exactly what we were looking for. The line is great, but what's harder to find is a qualified work force. The plant had operated in Beech Bottom until about a year ago, and it had very, very qualified personnel."
Chevalier said some of those workers have now signed on with Jupiter and are currently revamping the equipment in preparation for a restart.
"The first step for us was to refurbish the line, make sure everything will work fine and replace components," he said. "We have people here who used to operate the line helping us. They know the equipment and how it works. They're thrilled to be here, to be painting it and putting grease back in the bearings and making it work."
He said the company hopes to be in production by mid- to late-July and will be adding staff as production ramps up. He said that will happen "as the housing market rebounds, it's not going to happen overnight."
Ron Nuckles, general manager of Jupiter's coil coating division, said six employees are refurbishing the line now.
"It makes sense to leave the line here and bring in trained employees," he added. "If we took the line out … it would be well over a year before we could get into production. Here, we can be in production" in six weeks or less.
BDC Executive Director Pat Ford, meanwhile, said Hackman Capital is picking up the tab to bring potable water to the plant and take sewage from the buildings and plants to a treatment facility. Hackman also is renovating the upper floor of the administration building, which Jupiter is renting.

Kay Bailey Hutchison: I'm Done Runnin'
Here's the full statement just sent out by Courtney Sanders in the senator's D.C. office, which speaks -- at length -- for itself:
Announcement by U.S. Senator Kay Bailey Hutchison
To my fellow Texans:
For the past 17 years, it has been my greatest honor to serve the people of Texas in the United States Senate. Working for the citizens and communities of our state is a privilege.
I am announcing today that I will not be a candidate for re-election in 2012. That should give the people of Texas ample time to consider who my successor will be. In the next two years, you can be assured that I will pursue my duties, and my responsibilities to our state and people, with the same vigor that I have employed during my Senate service.
I have loved visiting all 254 counties in Texas. During my travels, I have been most touched by the constituents who have told me how my work in the Senate has personally impacted their lives. From the man in Dallas who thanked me for passing my Homemaker IRA legislation which allowed him and his wife to save more for their retirement; the teacher and sheriff's deputy in Houston who saved thousands each year because they knew I fought for my bill to relieve the marriage penalty tax; the military families who know I have been a champion of health care and housing for these heroes; and the many constituents that we have been privileged to assist with social security and veterans benefits. Knowing that I have been able to truly help my fellow Texans and make a positive difference in their lives is a public servant's greatest reward.
When my current term is up, I will have served Texas for 19 years in the United States Senate. I intended to leave this office long before now, but I was persuaded to continue in order to avoid disadvantage to our state. The last two years have been particularly difficult, especially for my family, but I felt it would be wrong to leave the Senate during such a critical period. Instead of putting my seat into a special election, I felt it was my duty to use my experience to fight the massive spending that has increased our national debt; the government takeover of the our health care system; and the growth of the federal bureaucracy, which threatens our economy. I will continue that fight until the end of my term in 2012.
I will be forever grateful for the privilege of working for you in the United States Senate. I will now look forward to living full-time in Texas with my family, and to keep working for our state's interests as long as I live.
God bless America and God bless Texas,
Kay Bailey Hutchison
United States Senator, Texas

Rated 3 out of 5 by Stockingreview from Christmas stockings My husband and I have matching personalised Xmas stockings from vistaprint and we recently had twins so needed to get them matching stockings also.... unfortunately it seems vistaprint has changed their stocking quality and what is supposed to be a plush red stocking is now a faded red that does not match either the picture advertised nor previous quality stockings sold.

Rated 5 out of 5 by Dawe from Great I bought 9 of these at reduced price two Christmases ago and they were fabulous. Now I need 4 more but I am a bit shocked by comments that colour may not match and at the regular price. Will there be a special price anytime soon?

Rated 1 out of 5 by Janep1 from Quality terrible, looks pink, didn't even hang up. I purchased 3 of these for our family to match the one I got for my sons 1st Christmas in 2013. Previously the stocking was great, a nice red colour & I was excited when they arrived only to find that the 3 that I purchased this time looked a pale red more pinkish colour, not a Christmas red at all. I was so disappointed I didn't even hang them up, they look awful against the one we had for my son. Obviously changed fabrics for a cheaper alternative & it shows. Very disappointed.

Rated 2 out of 5 by Susiq from Very flimsy boot, embroidery good I purchased this stocking for my brand new grandson but was very disappointed when it arrived. The embroidery and the white part of the stocking are great....the supposedly red part is not a real Santa red.....it has a very pink hue to it and is very, very flimsy....Don't like it all. :(

Rated 3 out of 5 by rocknbee from Soft and hang perfectly. I bought a set for Christmas and one of the stocking must be from different stock batch supplier as the red is different, the white top is also slightly different fluff. Bit disappointing when all hang up but otherwise they are cute.

A few visitors at Sportsman's Lake outside Hodgenville were surprised early Wednesday by an unusual sight.
About 15 American white pelicans floated on the lake for at least an hour before taking flight. No one saw their arrival but their exit was quite impressive as they caught a breeze and headed north.
Charlie Hart, caretaker at the Lake, said he first noticed the big white birds swimming or floating peaceably in the middle of the 40-acre lake about 8:30 a.m. He watched them through binoculars and thought a couple of them might be asleep.
Changes being made by the Federal Communications Commission mean an end to a program that subsidizes the cost of telephone service for low-income consumers.
"Although the Link-Up program will end April 2, the Lifeline program, which helps pay the cost of monthly phone bills for eligible consumers, will continue," Kentucky Public Service Commission Chairman David Armstrong said. "We encourage eligible Kentuckians to continue to avail themselves of that program."
For the 2012 season, the Stephen Foster Drama Association is promising plenty of entertaining showcases, as well as top tapping beats during the 2012 Live At The Park Concert Series.
Members of the drama association met for their annual meeting Thursday at My Old Kentucky Home.
Managing Artistic Director Johnny Warren presented a recap of the 2011 season, as well as presenting events planned for the coming months.
Survivors who received an application for a Small Business Administration low-interest disaster loan after registering for federal disaster assistance should complete and return it as soon as possible.
Returning an SBA loan application may provide a survivor with funds for home repair and reconstruction. It also may direct the survivor to Federal Emergency Management Agency disaster recovery grants that do not have to be repaid.
LaRue County is among 14 counties that are eligible for reimbursements to county and local governments to assist in storm recovery.
The Federal Emergency Management Agency will provide reimbursements to county and local governments to repair public infrastructure or to remove storm debris. Deadly storms and tornadoes tore through Kentucky on Feb. 29 and March 2.
As damage assessments continue, more counties may be approved for similar aid.
A New Haven man was injured in a Marion County crash about 2 p.m. March 20.
According to Kentucky State Police, Thomas Calvin Newton, 54, of Loretto, was driving a 2002 GMC pickup north on KY 49 and attempted to make a left turn into the parking lot of Loretto Foodland.
Newton's vehicle turned into the path of a 1998 Nissan driven by Michael F. Hayslip, 61, who was traveling south on KY 49.
Both were wearing seatbelts; Newton was uninjured.
Some Kentucky disaster survivors may receive a letter from the Federal Emergency Management Agency which indicates more information is needed to determine eligibility for FEMA disaster assistance.
Any letter you receive from FEMA should be read carefully.
Here are some common reasons why FEMA may need additional information from survivors:
• The applicant did not provide complete insurance information;
• The applicant did not provide proof of occupancy or ownership of the damaged property;
A two-vehicle accident at the intersection of Lincoln Boulevard and Phillips Lane caused a brief road closure March 9.
A two-vehicle accident near Walters Cabinets on Old Elizabethtown Road left one injured Monday afternoon.
According to Sheriff's Deputy Brian Smith, a 2003 Chevy Impala driven by Kathy Herring, 54, of Hodgenville was attempting to turn left onto Tonieville Road when she was rear-ended by a 2005 Dodge Neon driven by Lindsay Floyd, 58, also of Hodgenville.
According to Smith, Herring was complaining of neck pain and was transported to Hardin Memorial Hospital by LaRue County EMS. She was treated and released.
The Shaw family, well-known among the state's cattle breeders, was honored March 2 at the 2012 Kentucky Angus Association Annual Meeting and Banquet as "Family of the Year."
Jim Shaw of Hodgenville has been raising and showing Angus cattle since 1975 when he acquired a small herd from the estate of a family member.

Skip to comments.Drunk Flight Attendant Forces Canceled Flight (Video at link)
Posted on 08/06/2007 7:23:27 PM PDT by SkyPilot
A flight attendant accused of alcohol intoxication will face a judge August 6th.
Twenty six year old Sarah Mills is charged with operating a motor vehicle under the influence, terrorist threatening, and alcohol intoxication.
An Atlantic Southeast flight scheduled to leave Bluegrass Airport Aug 5 was cancelled because it didn't have enough crew members.
Police say Mills was pulled off the plane for being too drunk.
Court records say the captain notified the police of Mills and then brought the plane back to the gate.
Thank you for flying high with Atlantic Southeast Airlines.
While searching to see if this story was already posted, I ran across this thread from back in March about the lead singer of the band "The Black Eyed Peas" being tossed off a flight for being too drunk.
Fergie (Stacy Ferguson) Kicked Off a Flight for Being Too Drunk
Her name is Stacy Ferguson. She was once photographed on stage so drunk that she pissed herself.
Freeper carolinalivin posted the funniest response to the photograph. Here it is:
Maybe she's just happy to see you.
Oh come on....
The guys can fly the space shuttle when buzzed,
but a stewardess babe tosses back a few and the wimp pilot brings the bus back to the terminal?
Hell, I would pay extra for a flight waitress who did more than ask repetitive questions about water or coffee.......
especially if she was babe-a-licious!
Give me pics......
Terrorist threats? Wonder what she said. Will she be sent to Gitmo for these threats and if so, will she be a flight attendent on the flight down?
Okay, I deserved that....
How about give me decent pics......
Flight attendant was drunk, told pilot 'You're dead,' records say
So now it's against the law to threaten terrorists? :)
You can see a photo of the stewardess on the video link.
oops, be careful what you ask for.....
mea culpa. no more por favor
I think that term has pretty much become an oxymoron. As a frequent flyer, most of the "Big-6" mainline airlines consist of middle to retirement aged women and effeminate males. The regional airlines must pay a low salary because the flight attendants because I feel like I am being served by a Denny's, Ihop or Ponderosa type waitress..not the most professional and your lucky if you get one that can properly enunciate the preflight safety briefing.
I think the standard is the stewardesses can't drink within 24 hours of a flight (like the pilots).
I suppose it is in case of emergency where they must account for your safety. But by that standard, the person seated near the emergency exit should not be permitted to drink well before boarding and should not be permitted to sleep during the flight.
She looks hung over.
The drinks cart is motorized? She wasn't "operating" the plane was she? Strange charge.
Was she too drunk to serve cocktails? It's not like she's the pilot or anything
She's a lil pig.
To the flight attendent- Next time the pilot asks to see you in his "cock pit", you will obey his orders, otherwise you find your self booted from his plane.
I don't get it. Was she going to fly the aircraft too?
She looks like she is faced.
She probably drove to work.

operating a motor vehicle
Good point. How will they explain that logic?
LOL at the "motorized drink cart".
LOL, yup.
I friend of mine who used to fly cargo jets with me in the Air Force flew for one of the majors and married a flight attendant.
Now, most flight attendants out there are professional, and it is a difficult job no matter what people think about it being "glamorous."
I met his wife once, and she was a hoot. She was smart and pretty. She also used to like to tell "Flight Attendant" jokes.
Here are two of them:
Q: What is the mating call of a Delta Flight Attendant?
A: "Oooh ya'll, I'm so drunk!"
Q: Why do Delta Flight Attendants have padded shoulder pads on their uniform?
A:(moves head from shoulder to shoulder and answers in a high pitched dippy voice) "I dunno?"
ping to me
Your descriptions of the flight attendents on the major US carriers are correct.
I fly international and try to fly asian airlines, like Cathy, JAL and Singapore Air. They are very cute and very professional. Service with a great big smile. And they fit well while walking down the aisles.
I know, I know. I've logged over 300k miles in the last 15 years and there has been a significant change in appearance
of the flight babes. (eer babe-nots)
I was only dreaming of what never was.......
Apparently, she threatened the Captain. She told him "You're dead!" after he pulled back to the gate and called the authorities.
Back in the 1970's, my Mom (who worked for the airlines) would tell me they would fire flight attendants who got too fat.
Yup...you can put a fork in this one.
You know that method creates a lot of collateral damage. ehehehe.
The standard for Drinking and flying is 8 hours by law. It is Title 14 of CFR Far 91.17(a)
At my airline it is 8 hours also but some carriers have 12 hour limits. Having a beer or two the night before is pretty common but NEVER within 8 hours.
Here it is.
§ 91.17 Alcohol or drugs.
(a) No person may act or attempt to act as a crewmember of a civil aircraft
(1) Within 8 hours after the consumption of any alcoholic beverage;
(2) While under the influence of alcohol;
(3) While using any drug that affects the person's faculties in any way contrary to safety; or
(4) While having an alcohol concentration of 0.04 or greater in a blood or breath specimen. Alcohol concentration means grams of alcohol per deciliter of blood or grams of alcohol per 210 liters of breath.
(b) Except in an emergency, no pilot of a civil aircraft may allow a person who appears to be intoxicated or who demonstrates by manner or physical indications that the individual is under the influence of drugs (except a medical patient under proper care) to be carried in that aircraft.
(c) A crewmember shall do the following:
(1) On request of a law enforcement officer, submit to a test to indicate the alcohol concentration in the blood or breath, when
(i) The law enforcement officer is authorized under State or local law to conduct the test or to have the test conducted; and
(ii) The law enforcement officer is requesting submission to the test to investigate a suspected violation of State or local law governing the same or substantially similar conduct prohibited by paragraph (a)(1), (a)(2), or (a)(4) of this section.
(2) Whenever the FAA has a reasonable basis to believe that a person may have violated paragraph (a)(1), (a)(2), or (a)(4) of this section, on request of the FAA, that person must furnish to the FAA the results, or authorize any clinic, hospital, or doctor, or other person to release to the FAA, the results of each test taken within 4 hours after acting or attempting to act as a crewmember that indicates an alcohol concentration in the blood or breath specimen.
(d) Whenever the Administrator has a reasonable basis to believe that a person may have violated paragraph (a)(3) of this section, that person shall, upon request by the Administrator, furnish the Administrator, or authorize any clinic, hospital, doctor, or other person to release to the Administrator, the results of each test taken within 4 hours after acting or attempting to act as a crewmember that indicates the presence of any drugs in the body.
(e) Any test information obtained by the Administrator under paragraph (c) or (d) of this section may be evaluated in determining a person's qualifications for any airman certificate or possible violations of this chapter and may be used as evidence in any legal proceeding under section 602, 609, or 901 of the Federal Aviation Act of 1958.
[Doc. No. 18334, 54 FR 34292, Aug. 18, 1989, as amended by Amdt. 91291, June 21, 2006]
I am surprised they allow any alcohol in system. .08 is legally drunk so I guess the pilot can be half drunk and fly.
Then there's the one "Why did the Pilot break up with the Flight Attendant? She kept placing herself over his nose and mouth and asked him to breathe normally".
Now THESE were flight attendants...
OK how drunk was she required to be?
War is hell......
Guilty, fat & ugly!
No, just typical union workers. It's what happens to people when they work for years at what should be an entry level position, with no hope of advancement. What used to be an exciting, temporary job, for young women to earn money for collage, has become a mindlessly boring job for those too stupid to do anything else. I feel sorry for flight attendants.
She's all class. She's supposed to evacuate a plane in an emergency!
Buh bye.
She's a crew member. Who do you think opens the cabin door and activates the emergency slide in an emergency? Acting as a sky waitress is a sideline.
I am not making up the title.

HIGHLANDS - Residents of Highlands got together Friday to discuss long-term Sandy rebuilding plans.
Four sessions were held so that neighbors could talk about the future of their community. Topics ranged from how maximize the waterfront to summer camps for kids, and even how to make the arts a more prevalent part of their neighborhoods.
The event was hosted by a group called Creative New Jersey, which banned Power Points and formal speeches in favor of small groups working creatively.
"We've brought the community of Highlands together to convene in an open space style, which means that everything is self-organized and self-directed," says Director Elizabeth Murphy, of Creative New Jersey. "And the people are talking about the issues they care most about."
Funding for the event was provided by the Geraldine R. Dodge Foundation.
In the next few weeks, another session will be held to review today's results.

This one was a kid. But I agree with you as to the state of a lot of professional horns. Some players are often anal about 3 thou difference in bore size, but not worried about 30 thou of dirt!

... And it really ticks me off to have bought or rented a pre-owned one from a musical instrument store that when i bathed it revealed such garbage is the water, but that's was what i rented to own in college and re-sold it asap (it was as clean as I could get it by the time I sold it). Small wonder that store isn't in business now!
So Ivan, what is the cost of the HazMet crew to remove this from your premises?
Ooh, that is awful. I lent a horn to a friend and got it back with a big gob of goo in the main tuning slide - sickening.
Juilliard Professor: You have to suffer to be able play the blues.
Miles Davis: My father's rich, my mother's good looking, and I've never suffered, but I can play the blues.
That's why I always wash my horns in the bathtub, under running water and with the plug out... you don't really see what's coming out...
