That Nagging Sense of Dissatisfaction
Have you ever found yourself standing in front of the refrigerator, trying to find something to satisfy a vague sense of emptiness or discontent? You aren't looking for anything specific, but you know you want to fill a longing. Whatever you choose will probably not do the trick, because the empty spot is not in your stomach but in your soul.
Whether the substance is food, career, possessions, or relationships, our souls are continually trying to find satisfaction. But nothing in this world will fill the void. Since we were created for relationship with God, He placed deep within us a yearning for Him. Though we may not recognize it as such, everyone knows the feeling of dissatisfaction that at time seeps into our souls. Whenever we attempt to find fulfillment with worldly substitutes, disappointment and disillusionment are sure to follow.
There are two possible menus from which we can choose to fill our empty souls. Satan's menu is long and full of enticingthings that seem to promise fulfillment and pleasure. These could include relationships, prominence, acceptance, riches, or recognition. Whatever he offers looks like the good life that will bring contentment, but it's a deception. But God's menu is quite small. In fact, it lists just one "item"—Jesus. He is the only one who can fill the void.
What are you pursuing in life? Have you found the satisfaction you seek, or is there always a vague sense of discontent in your soul? If you'll give Jesus a bigger place in your life and spend focused, unhurried time with Him, He'll satisfy you as nothing else can.

From the Super Mario Wiki
Sandbag is a living punching bag in the Super Smash Bros. series. First appearing in Super Smash Bros. Melee, it is the target in the Home-Run Contest.
Sandbag also makes three appearances in Super Smash Bros. Brawl. In the Wi-Fi connection mode, as players are waiting for the game to load, or other players to connect, they are able to attack Sandbag on the waiting screen. It will also appear in the Home-Run Contest mode of the game, once again. It also appears as a container, but can "lose" several items unlike other containers. A very common cheat is to use Sandbag only, which makes it constantly drop Stickers and CDs.
In Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS / Wii U, aside from appearing in the Home-Run Contest, it also is introduced as a regular item during fighting matches.

3 easy ways to decorate your home for the seasons
Being a busy mother of three, I have found myself wanting to make every aspect of my life as simple as possible! I have taken all the clutter from my home and simplified each and every room to hold ONLY ITEMS THAT ARE USEFUL AND HAVE A PURPOSE. With that said, I still want a beautiful home that makes me feel good! So I make a few exceptions. Every room may have a few items in it that are just plain pretty and make me feel good. I allow 2 or 3 items, in 2 or 3 places, in each room that are purely decorative and make each space beautiful and special. About half of these items are things that I am personally connected to (like family photos, my great grandmother's vase, etc) and the other half are usually items that are very 'season specific' and are easily interchangeable throughout the year. They allow me to appreciate the beauty and special memories that come with the changing seasons and holidays of the year and I never get bored since I change them every 6 weeks or so. I know that sounds like a lot, but wait and see how simple it is! Here are my top 4 picks:
1. Find a handful of beautiful glass containers that you love. Choose whatever style fits your home or personality. Mason and canning jars give an old country feel, antique hand cut glass dishes and milk glass fit perfectly into a shabby sheik or cottage space, and apothecary jars and stemmed glassware are flexible enough to fit in a more formal space or can give a classic 'fits anywhere' feel. Place these dishes around your house and fill them with simple seasonal items. Some examples: Colored eggs at Easter, lemons or limes in the summer, acorns or apples in the fall, candy corns at Halloween, gourds for thanksgiving, small glass Christmas balls during the holidays. You get the picture. The possibilities are endless and it's a simple, inexpensive and fun way to decorate for the seasons. If you find items that don't spoil and can be saved from year to year, it's even more economical.

The Mosquito Magnet Patriot is easy to setup and operate, so it's easier for you to relax and enjoy your yard free from mosquitoes. With over 15 patents and 2 decades of research, the technology contained in the Patriot is proven effective at breaking mosquito breeding cycles.
The Mosquito Magnet Patriot trap protects up to one full acre of land and is backed by Mosquito Magnet's exclusive 360 Degree Customer Support program, so you can confidently win your battle against mosquitoes. Heavy duty plastics and marine-grade materials make this trap idea for even the harshest of environments.
The Patriot's Mosquito Magnet Net is engineered to maximize unblocked airflow - critical to the performance of the trap. This net allow for easy disposal and replacement with any direct contact with dead insects. Change every 21 days for optimal performance.
A 50-foot, 12-volt power cord is supplied with your Mosquito Magnet Patriot. The ideal proper placement of the trap is away from your outdoor living areas, but near the mosquitoes' breeding and resting areas. Lawn clips are provided to help secure your power cord and reduce any potentially hazardous conditions that a loose cord could create in your lawn.
Proper placement of your Mosquito Magnet is crucial to its success. If placed correctly, mosquitoes will be drawn to the Mosquito Magnet instead of to you.
For best results, use the following guidelines for proper placement.
1. Determine where mosquitoes are breeding
2. Place the trap away from people areas
3. Place the trap upwind from the breeding area
4. Place trap in open area
5. Place trap in shade
To see how the above steps can work in your yard watch the trap placement video.
Using the proper secondary attractant is proven to increase your mosquito catch rate by up to 10 times. These attractants lure mosquitoes to the trap by mimicking human skin scents and other natural odors.
Mosquito Magnet attractants are the only brand to be EPA-registered and proven effective. To help you choose the correct lure for your mosquito trap see the map below to make the right decision based on your location and other factors.
Mosquito Magnet traps are backed by over 20 years of research and 15 patents that make the traps technologically advanced.
Mosquito Magnet traps work by mimicking the way humans attract mosquitoes. Through its exclusive patented CounterFlow technology the trap converts propane into CO2, mixes it with the precise level of heat, moisture and attractant to lure mosquitoes to the trap and then vacuums mosquitoes into the net where they dehydrate and die.
As the #1 mosquito trap in America, Mosquito Magnet has a big reputation to live up to. Mosquito Magnet prides itself on being the only long-term solution that is scientifically proven to effectively control mosquitoes. But what really matters is what people who have used Mosquito Magnet have to say [or better yet show] about the products. Check out these photo testimonials from actual trap owners below. This is proof that a Mosquito Magnet can help you put mosquitoes in their place.
Mosquito Magnet traps are truly easy-to-set and operate. Assembling is done in just 3 quick steps. Once started, your trap will begin working immediately with noticeable results in 7-10 days. Allow a 4-week time frame to see significant reduction in your mosquito population. For optimal results, run your trap 24 hours a day initially in order to break the breeding cycle of the mosquitoes.

Best Climbing Experience
Too many to mention... Climbing and soloing the two couloirs of the northern corries (Aladdin's and the Couloir), February 2011 in one day - but still having time for a lovely blissful sunny-skied Sneachda lunch - was a sublime day and a lesson in how to feel alive.
Ben Alder: climbing on the Leachas in winter 2006, before traversing the hill and then Beinn a' Bheoil.
The Forcan Ridge in winter 2001 was out of this world too, just a shame about the forcan weather...
The right hill, at the right time with the right people though is, and will be, my best experience. As long as it's in the winter.

Ex-UT swim coach John Trembley won't be charged over sexually graphic emails
John Trembley's termination letter
John Trembley's 2004 contract with UT and amendments
Timeline of John Trembley's termination
UTPD report of John Trembley's investigation
He held the respect of all his swimmers, revered by students as the rock of the aquatics program.
He trawled the Internet in private, leading a life of lies in search of drug-fueled sex with strangers.
"What are u interested in doing?" he wrote in an email from his University of Tennessee account. "I love it all. ... better hurry if u are horny."
UT records don't make clear whether John Trembley, the disgraced former University of Tennessee men's swim coach fired Jan. 3, ever acted on his online offers of sex or whether that double life extended past a few days in May and June of last year when Trembley advertised on Craigslist from his UT-issued computer as a man less than half his age, swapped nude photos with prospective sex partners and traded lewd emails with another user claiming to be a 17-year-old boy.
Trembley lost his job as the university's second longest-serving coach for those emails but will face no criminal charges. Knoxville police said Friday they found no evidence of a case to prosecute.
Trembley says he's sorry and blamed his behavior on depression and drug abuse. He wrote in a statement sent out by his lawyer, Donald A. Bosch, that he sought treatment and believes he's now in recovery.
"For the past several years, I have been treated for depression," Trembley wrote. "More recently I have struggled with substance abuse and addiction to fantasy communications with others through the Internet. ... I continue to seek and receive treatment and have been substance- and destructive behavior-free for 2012. ... I deeply regret any harm leveled on anyone. ... It is a beautiful day and it is great to be alive."
Bosch pointed out the investigation found no proof Trembley engaged in such discussions with any of his swimmers or any other UT students.
The university fired Trembley, 59, three days into the year with no public explanation other than a vague accusation of "gross misconduct." UT police turned the case over to KPD investigators two days later.
Trembley — a husband, Bible study leader and father of three — had been a decorated UT swimmer and the university's longest-serving coach except for women's basketball head coach Pat Summitt. He coached for 23 seasons before UT officials terminated his contract, which would have lasted through June 2014.
The job paid close to $180,000 in total compensation.
Trembley had the right to appeal his firing. He didn't.
The investigation kicked off with questions from a former Olympian about Trembley hitting up boosters for money. A graduate student, Drew Rutherford, complained on Dec. 2 that Trembley had asked former UT swimmer Melvin Stewart, a Trembley protégé and 1992 winner of two Olympic gold medals, for a check made payable to him personally, according to a UT police report.
Stewart then called Coleman Weibley, UT director of swimming operations, to ask what would be done with the money, saying Trembley might be hitting up others for cash as well. University officials questioned Trembley and brought up rumors of drug use that he didn't deny.
"Mr. Trembley explained that he was going to use the money for personal gain but did not elaborate further on what," UT police Cpl. Ben Doty wrote in a report. "He advised ... that he had a change of heart and deposited the money into (a private account)."
He asked to retire with two years' pay.
Officials noted Trembley had shown signs of depression since the death of assistant swim coach Joe Hendee, who lost a battle with brain cancer that April. Reports claimed he sometimes sat under his desk in the dark.
Officials later found components of a crack pipe there, according to another report.
UT police searched Trembley's computer Dec. 22, looking for financial records, and discovered the emails and photos, all apparently sent over a period of about two weeks in spring 2011 when Trembley visited Ventura, Calif. He described himself in the messages to men and women as a "sane, clean, educated guy" — 32 years old in some messages, 26 or 27 in others — "into giving/receiving ... maybe more."
He bragged about a passion for cross-dressing and anal and oral sex. He offered to pay for a cab for one Internet user, who claimed to be a 17-year-old boy, to visit his hotel room and offered marijuana and methamphetamine as a reward.
"I can (have sex) all night when I also enjoy Ms. Tina (slang for meth) which I have here," Trembley wrote. "I will pay for ur cab both ways and we can party and play most or all night ... ur call!"
UT officials confronted Trembley with the messages.
"Mr. Trembley seemed stoic or coached during the termination hearing even when presented with the solicitation emails," Doty, the UT police corporal, wrote. "He flipped through the emails and would only say 'yes' as he flipped through them."
Trembley asked whether he could keep the emails. UT officials fired him instead and turned the emails over to KPD's Internet Crimes Against Children Task Force.
"The university responded quickly and decisively," UT spokeswoman Margie Nichols said.
KPD Investigator Richard Giammarino, a financial-crimes specialist, and ICAC investigators worked the case for the next four months but determined the evidence wouldn't support criminal charges.
"The allegations have been ruled unfounded," KPD spokesman Darrell DeBusk said Friday.
He gave no other details.
Trembley grew up in Schenectady, N.Y., and swam for UT from 1970 until his graduation in 1975 with a bachelor's degree in philosophy. He won five NCAA championships for the university, set three records and was a nine-time All-American.
He joined the men's swim team staff as an assistant coach following graduation and helped guide the team to the university's first and only national swimming championship in 1978. He left in 1980 to coach for Mercersburg Academy in Pennsylvania but returned to UT in 1988 as head coach.
Trembley's accomplishments at UT included leading the team to SEC titles in 1989 and 1996 and winning the SEC's Coach of the Year award six times.

The Milwaukee-area PMI in June was 60.57, which is slightly lower than in May when it was at 63.49. The index has been over 50 for eight of the past 10 months. In April, however, it was at 47.26.…
Wisconsin is one of top states in biotech job growth, report shows
Consider a few numbers from a recent report on U.S. biotechnology:
Wisconsin was one of 12 states to gain at least 1,000 jobs in the biotech and life sciences field between 2007 and 2012 Wisconsin had nearly 31,800 jobs and nearly 1,400 businesses in the bioscience industry in 2012
The numbers highlight a new report that shows Wisconsin's bioscience industry is not only sizable, but also growing. The report also paints Madison as a hub in many speciality areas.

Rohnert Park, CA 94927
My husband and I took our son and 2 friends here during their spring break and will NEVER come back. It is crazy expensive (spent nearly 300.00 dollars) for each boy to race 3 times (each race lasts about 6 minutes), play one round of mini golf (less than 5 minutes), arcade games and grossly overpriced soda and nachos. My husband and I kept noticing that the manager kept giving our boys dirty looks and we couldn't figure out why....we waited 15 minutes to get golf clubs to play the black light mini golf and the manager barked at my son that he had "better not hear any golf balls hit the wall, or they would be asked to leave". We were totally stunned by that comment, considering it's almost impossible not to tap the wall with the ball as the mini golf course is basically a narrow hallway! Then for some reason yet to be determined he sent the teenage girl working the front counter over to the boys to give them a "warning". When I asked her what the warning was for she said she didn't Know, she was just doing what the manager told her to do. ??? They were terribly understaffed, with only the teenage girl and the bizarrely rude manager working the entire center. We waited over 20 minutes to get an overpriced soda. The boys redeemed their arcade tickets and one of them won a t-shirt. The manager told us to wait by the arcade and he would bring it to us......we waited and waited and after some time walked to the counter to see what was taking so long. The manager had it on the Counter and wanted us to leave! As if all that wasn't confusing enough, he bad mouthed us to another customer after we left, not knowing she was a friend of ours! We left completely dazed and confused as to why we were treated so bad. Why market your business as a family center if you dont like kids? My son and his friends were not ill behaved or rude in any way! The only thing I can think of is he had some kind of problem with teenage boys. Perhaps previous bad experiences? ?? We can't figure it out but know one thing for sure. .....WE WILL NEVER BE BACK! And do not recommend this place to anyone with children!

Illiniwek Forest Preserve is home to the Quad Cities newest mountain bike trail system designed, built, and maintained by FORC volunteers. The park offers a wide range of amenities and features 5 miles of singletrack trail set amongst the bluffs of northern Rock Island County.
Trail Map:
Trail Information:
The trail system is made up of five miles of purpose built single track trail which will satisfy riders of all abilities. The trails follow the natural contours of the parks terrain with many overlooks of the Mississippi River Valley and the parks deep ravines. One large ravine divides the park separating the trails into two distinct systems: the North and South loops.
North Loop: Many of the trails on this side of the park provide riders with greater technical and physical challenge. Tight corners, exposed roots, and steeper grades are sure to get your heart pumping. The overlook trail meanders along one of the highest bluffs in the area and has the best views of the Mississippi River Valley in the park.
South Loop: This section of trail has great flow with minimal elevation change and is sure to put a smile on your face. Banked corners, scenic views, and ruins of old park structures are some of the features you will encounter. Be sure to ride the section behind the salt dome both ways, you will swear you are going downhill the whole time.
At Illiniwek, you cant get away from climbing, but this has its benefits: whatever goes up must come down! Two one minute plus flowy downhill runs at opposite ends of the park make the grind to the top worth it (beware of limited sightlines around corners!). Or if climbing is your thing, its easy to push your heart, legs, and lungs to their limit with four sustained climbs each with gains around 100 feet. One complete lap is close to 350 feet of elevation gain.
Trail Features: Starting Spring 2014, technical trail features will start to be added to satisfy those seeking more challenging riding opportunities. Currently there are plans to build a log rides, log overs, and a short section of rollers. A set of three log overs has already been completed on the north loop.
Park Hours:
- Summer Hours 6am-10pm
- Winter Hours 6am-Sunset
Trail Closures
Trail closures are controlled by Illiniwek park staff. For the most current conditions call the main office at 309-496-2620 or check the Illiniwek Facebook Page. Trails are typically closed for 24 hours or more after 0.25" or greater of rainfall. The trail status on our homepage may not reflect the most current trail information so save yourself disappointment and call the office if conditions are questionable or it has rained within the last 48 hrs.
Trails open daily 1/2 hour before sunrise and close 1/2 hour after sunset.
Just North of Hampton, IL on IL-84 or 2.2 miles west of I-80 on IL-84 (take the first/last exit entering/exiting Illinois).
More Info:
Illiniwek Forest Preserve blankets 199 acres of mixed hard and soft wood deciduous forest and is located on the Mississippi River just north of Hampton, Illinois. Features include on-site primitive and modern camping, fishing, access to the Great River Trail, and mountain bike and hiking trails.

You'll read more of this later in the AJC, but the Bartow County Bank has filed notice in Gordon County Superior Court that former state lawmaker Tom Graves, Senate Majority Leader Chip Rogers and their company owe $2.25 million for cash loaned to purchase a motel in Calhoun.
See some of the paperwork here.
Graves is the leading candidate in the 9th District congressional race, headed toward a June 8 runoff with former state senator Lee Hawkins of Gainesville. Both are Republican.
The complaint was filed May 17 against Graves, Rogers and Tich Hospitality.
In the court papers, the bank says Graves guaranteed repayment, even though he was "insolvent in that his liabilities exceeded his assets and he was unable to pay his obligations as they matured."
The bank also claims Graves initiated a "fraudulent transfer" of property in order to frustrate the bank's efforts to pursue the debt.
Lori Geary at WSB-TV reported talking to Rogers by phone. (Here's a link to the video.) The Senate majority leader said he had already severed ties with the company
Said the Graves campaign:
"The litigation involves complicated issues of fact and law. I have filed my own claims against the plaintiff in this lawsuit because I suffered damages as a result of its broken promises to me.
"This country has a judicial system in place where business disputes like this lawsuit can be successfully and fairly resolved, and I am fully confident that a satisfactory resolution will be reached once all the facts have come to light."
Graves accused the Hawkins campaign of spreading word of the lawsuit: "It is unfortunate that my opponent resorts to trying to tear good men down in order to advance his political career."

Lee Hawkins knows only negative campaigning. He needs to focus on the issues and stop attacking Tom Graves. It is a pathetic attempt from a liberal candidate to hide from his record and to distract the voters.

I am proud to support Tom Graves! He is the only conservative in this race. I have early voted already and see right through these dirty tactics from Team-Liberal-Hawkins.

Wake up 9th District!! We finally got rid of Nathan Deal and now we are going to elect someone just as crooked? Tom Graves is not change for the better. He is the darling of the tea party activists but people like this will NOT make Congress or our nation better. They are only there to serve themselves and don't give a damn about anything else. But people hear "Tea Party" and they think it is all well and good. Not sure Hawkins is a whole lot better, but at least he is not being accused of fraud.

Why is it people continue to deny the wrongdoings of these politicians? The evidence is there. Sonny Perdue does own property that will make him wealthy, Nathan Deal does have some ethics concerns as approved by a panel composed of both GOP and Dem., Thurbert Baker did not file disclosures for two years as will as a few others. Ray McBerry's letter to the high school girl is there, he is divorced over it. Tom Graves can't run his own finances, but yet we gets support from the Tea partiers–the Taxpayers have to bail his ***out. It's just like people a year ago said Richardson didn't do it. I mean Larry Walker did get with Perdue about the land deal in Florida. It is there and people just sit and deny it. Know wonder this state is so messed up. Folks- if it walks like a duck, quacks like a duck, looks like a duck-it is a duck not a duckbill platypus. Everytime some one gets caught it is a conspiracy to ruin a good name-that is BULL S***

Because of the real estate fiasco many real estate investors,builders and developers are having these kind of problems. It is not uncommon for businessmen to get sued, have failed business ventures, etc. Has anyone seen if Lee Hawkins has been sued for malpractice by any of his patients or had any complaints against him? Making a failed business investment doesnt mean one is a crook, just like being sued by a patient makes you a bad doctor. I mean we have a secretary of the Treasury that owed our own government hundreds of thousands of dollars in back taxes and only payed up because he ran for office. We are hearing about character attacks because the the opponent is not focusing on the issues. It amazes me how bad people want to win so badthat they will leak things to the media to create a sensation. Personally i have gone through a lot of things financially, due to the poor economy. It does not mean i am not honest or wouldnt work hard for the people

Earlier today, I received a very poorly recorded phone message recorded by John Linder on behalf of Lee Hawkins. The message criticized Graves for claiming to have been with Linder on the Fair Tax road show. Linder stated that it was not true, that he didn't know why Graves would say such a thing. An hour or so later, I received a second message, this time from Graves, who said Linder had been misinformed and listed out specific names, dates and locations of at least one time when he was with Linder, Cain and Boortz.
Whatever–I'm already sick of both of these clowns fighting over toys in a sandbox. Neither has my confidence. I voted for Cates a few weeks ago because I heard several of his radio ads when he talked about his vision, his goals, his reasons for getting involved. At no time did he denigrate other candidates. He was very positive as to why you should vote for him.
I don't know if Cates is still running in the primary, if so he has my vote and my voice. And my check.

Hmm, let me see here. The choices are between an established businessman with local support vs. a person who's accused of fraudulently transferring assets to a family trust in an attempt to deceive a federal institution. Appears to be a pretty simple decision.

Um, no. The choices here are between a liberal do nothing senator and a proven conservative leader.
We don't need Lee Hawkins any more.

Ummmmm, maybe some of you haven't noticed that Lee Hawkins didn't write this? This is an AJC article and it was also on WSBtv. Is Lee Hawkins so powerful that he controls the media? I'm a little tired of every time something bad comes out about Tom Graves, he doesn't really address it or deny it, he just whines about Hawkins being "mean to him". Hawkins can't make a story like this up. It's a lawsuit, for Pete's sake. And obviously Graves owes some people some money. How is that Hawkins fault? The last thing we need in Washington is yet another guy who can't manage debt. I can't believe how some of you seem willing to excuse it all just because the guy is young and (sorta) good looking. It's Obama all over again. "We don't care that he's got no experience and he's a crook! Send him anyway!" WAKE UP PEOPLE!! Hawkins is getting my vote.

Bad republicans in every district! Dist 4 has their own version, just look at the FEC filings. In Georiga, an LLC can not be a non-profit, yet to run for congress your campaign contribution company must be a non-profit… Cory Ruths FEC filings, printed materials and donation page show a "Paid for by Cory Ruth for Congress, LLC."… Looks like he thinks it's okay to be "for-profit" with campaign contributions. Wonder if that LLC paid taxes on its contributions? Did deeper on Cory and you'll find even more.

Lee Hawkins has never said anything positive about himself or why he is running for Congress.
All he does is lie, cheat, and smear others. I'm sick of it, might not even vote at this point.
If it weren't for Tom Graves countering Lee's lies with the facts, I'd stay home. But I won't, and I'm telling everyone I know to vote for the one standing with Truth…Tom Graves!

This guy is unethical if this is true.
How could ANYONE who owes $2.5 million dollars choose instead to spend a year advancing their political career rather than getting a job to start paying it back?
The investors to that bank are real people — and they trusted him. He's apparently taken their money and won't pay it back, and instead is running to advance his political career.
Just kind of …sick.

It should be noted that the comment above, written by "Josh Jones," was not written or authorized by the same Josh Jones that is working with the Lee Hawkins Congressional Campaign. The comment, as it appears, is another attack by Tom Graves' supporters to discredit the facts. I believe voters will reject these malicious attempts by Tom Graves' supporters on June 08.

How can people that claim to be "Christians" support a man who consistently lies, has been sued multiple times, now BY THE FREAKING BANK, and still smile at me in church on Sunday? If you support Tom Graves you ARE AN IGNORANT CHRISTIAN – get out of my church! Do your homework and do not enable this CRIMINAL to get to Washington. AND stop trying to say that Lee Hawkins is running the negative campaign, you idiots, he has to defend himself like any normal person would. Get a grip and a brain – seriously.
May 27th, 2010
10:54 pm
Graves is a weak candidate who will hurt the party and the conservative movement nationally if he wins. He is an embarashment to the Tea Party people who honsetly support him and the National PAC's who have wasted thousands and in the case of one group hundreds of thousands of dollars supporting him. He has betrayed a lot of people and more will come out very soon.
May 27th, 2010

I cannot believe you Graves supporters. A bunch of crybabies you are. Tom Graves goes and gets himself sued and your mad at Lee Hawkins? The more I think about it, you sound like those freakin dems whining that it is my fault because they spent all their money and can't afford to pay the bills.
You Graves people just keep on sipping the kool-aid. Just quit whining about Lee when it's your boy that cannot keep himself outta trouble. Graves is a liar and a crook and you can't see the truth. Sad…I thought we had enough of that crap in Washington already and you Tea Partiers want to send this guy?
Great way to show you mean business!

d2, you are so right. Voters like GAVoter and TeaPartyMom just have their heads in the sand when it comes to these professional politicians. It seems we like to have crooks in office in this state. Otherwise, why would we have the likes of Perdue, Deal, Oxendine, Graves, and Cagle. If a politician claims to be ultra conservative and says Jesus loudly enough, we'll vote for him. No wonder our state is in worse shape than almost any other states in the country. God help us.

Just In! The United States Government was sue today by the Goldman Sachs Bank In the court papers, the bank says the USA guaranteed repayment, even though it was "insolvent in that it's liabilities exceeded its assets and it was unable to pay it's obligations as they matured to the Chinese Peoples Government."
Gee! So a bunch of Republicans investors are just like their government!

Check out Channel 2, crazies. How many different sources and different people in the MEDIA and community need to say TOM GRAVES IS A FRAUD for you to GET IT!!! This is not being created or carfted by the Hawkins Campaign. You guys deserve to have a crook in Congress. I hope you get him elected and you have to deal with it. HA! I'm moving.
May 27th, 2010
11:13 pm
Ok all you Hawkins supporters please tell me what Tom Graves has lied about???? As far as business deals go, people get sued all the time by banks because they can't pay the bills. This process has just started and why don't we wait until it is resolved before we start claiming allegations to be facts.
Also please remember that Lee Hawkins is a career politician too. If he wasn't, he wouldn't be pulling out the negative card to win an election for congress. He would win it on principles and his views on the issues, which to be honest a lot of voters don't really know because all we have seen from his campaign are attacks on Graves.
The real Josh Jones – if Hawkins is going to beat Graves, he has some work to do and as a voter in Forsyth County, were he lost by a 2-1 margin, we need to know more about him and his positions and less about attacks on Tom Graves. In other words, give the voters a reason to vote for Lee Hawkins. And if he was a true conservative then he, his campaign, and his supporters need to quit attacking the Club for Growth, a conservative group that advocates conservative reforms on fiscal issues.
And back to the lies comment. Lee Hawkins or his campaign are lying as well. Tonight voters in the 9th were treated to a robo-call from John Linder claiming that Tom Graves was lying about supporting the Fair Tax and that he never traveled the country in support of it. Well there are videos and an event agenda out there showing that Linder spoke at an event last summer just after Mr. Graves left the stage. Some of you Hawkins supporters go see the video and tell me how that call we received this evening was anything but dishonest?
May 27th, 2010
11:18 pm
Gary – Can you hear? Maybe you should get a new hearing-aid, dear. Graves claims he traveled the country with John Linder to sell the fairtax. John Linder caught wind of this and approached Graves about it – they had never even met before. Graves said his story was "Good enough for him." He was fine with lying, just like he's fine with running a corrupt business and lying about everything Lee Hawkins does.
May 27th, 2010
11:19 pm
Lee Hawkins has chased Tom Graves for years. From the time he tried to take create for the JOBS bill, to the way he hated Graves' and his 216 group at the Capitol. Graves is a leader and Hawkins knows he's always been the guy standing between Hawkins and Washington DC.
Go Tom Graves! You have the prayers and support of the grassroots. June 8th can't come soon enough.
May 27th, 2010
11:20 pm
Graves, Oxendine, Ruth, Deal…. what do they have in common? Republican, Crooks, Dirt Bags.
May 27th, 2010
11:30 pm
Tom Graves is a C-R-I-M-I-N-A-L. I don't care how much you pray or pretend this guy is good, the only thing he needs to be leading are prison meetings. Obviously, Graves is broke and he wants to use my tax dollars to support his corrupt business with that guy Chip. At least Hawkins is an established businessman who has been running a business almost as long as Graves has been alive.
May 27th, 2010
11:37 pm
Tom Graves needs a bailout, so he's running for Congress. He can't manage his own business, so why should the people of the 9th trust Graves to run theirs? Hell, go ahead and send Graves to Washington, he'll fit right in: spend other people's money and not pay it back.
There are two viable alternatives, Steve Tarvin and Chris Cates. I don't know Cates too well, but I know a little about Tarvin, and it sounds like he is everything Graves wants to be and isn't. A lifelong North GA resident, long term businessman, and a non – politico. Maybe we should look at these guys.
May 27th, 2010
11:57 pm
Anonymous names really are getting dull around here. Anyway, I heard what Linder said, but I also saw the video of the event in Missouri where they spoke right after one another. Kind of hard for me to believe that they never met.
May 27th, 2010
11:59 pm
It isn't about whether they met or not. The point is Graves lied and lead everyone to believe he was championing the fair tax along with the author, John Linder. He made it out to us like they were working as a team and he said it several times, this wasn't a slip-up – there was intent. Just like there was intent to steal the $2.5 million from the bank according to this article.
May 28th, 2010
12:29 am
Uh, exactly what did he lie about? He was at a Fair Tax rally with Boortz, Linder, Joe the Plumber, and Hermain Cain championing the Fair Tax. Not sure what else he would be doing the middle of Missouri in June 2009. And I tend to wait until all the facts are out to judge a man based on a bad business deal. One thing this article doesn't point out is the fact that Graves is counter-suing the bank because he claims they are not living up to a refinance agreement they made on the loan in question.
May 28th, 2010
12:31 am
Oh and it does matter if they met or not. Linder claims in the call that he has never met Tom Graves. Again, two guys speak at the same Fair Tax event one right after the other and someone don't have even the smallest of conversations?

Hmmm…according to the documents, this happened some time ago. This happened before Graves' opponent could have done anything to create it and it isn't this first allegation of this sort, right? This is fishy and Channel 2 thinks so too. As a finance guy, I know it's a pretty big deal to get a bank to do this sort of thing. This is serious and people need to understand you do not want someone that is guilty of this in Congress. Maybe this guy is running for this seat for the opportunity to cover this up? Use his power in Congress to cover it up?

Do any of you think Christ is on one side or the other in this election. He loves both candidates as well as the people who submit comments here. D2 you make a lot of sense. Why can't we we work for the good of all humans instead of tearing each other apart.

OK people, let's do a short course in learning about our candidates. It matters not to which party they belong nor what one issue the media picks up and shares with readers. It DOES matter from whom these people received campaign contributions, what ties to the community they have (not just the public), what their voting records are, and how much time they spent with lobbyists. All of these facts can be discoverd by research. Voting is not only a right, but a responsibility. It's my hope that people would exercise this right more responsibly.

Didn't any of you republicans learn ANYTHING from putting Bush into office? I mean he too was someone who had business after business fail (even with Daddy helping him land job after job and line up Saudi investors for his own businesses that he sank into the ground). What happened when he was given job as President? He sank our whole nation just as he did every business he started. It's quite clear that Graves too is lousy as business, and seems to me his involved in fraud as well (by his transfer of assets)… But the right will STILL vote for him…and in fact blame his whole fiasco he's in right now on Obama. It's the Talibangelical way to do so… never admit when one's wrong, and always blame someone else even when all facts show otherwise.

If the AJC runs an article attacking Graves, then he must be the man. I voted for him, and have cast my absentee ballot for him in the runoff. Same goes for Ray McBerry.

This past year I had the privilege of being the Photo Editor forthe 35 Denton Music Festival, and while that was probablythe most stressful and sleep deprived four days. I could not bemore thankful for the experience. I met, worked with, and show casedthe work of so many wonderful photographers. I also was able to shoot some things for my own portfolio and I was lucky enoughto catch this moment.

It may surprise you to learn that if both parties consent, couples living anywhere in the State of Kansas can file and complete their divorce in Sedgwick County (the county that includes Wichita).
Technically speaking, as long as the Petitioner has lived in Kansas for at least 60 days, he or she can file in any county in Kansas. If neither party lives in Sedgwick County, however, the opposing party would only need to file a motion to change the venue to the county in which one or both parties live, and it would almost certainly be granted.
But why would a couple living in another part of Kansas want to file and complete their uncontested divorce in Wichita? The reason is that in Wichita, couples can usually avoid the time and trouble of appearing in Court to discuss the terms of their uncontested divorce agreement on the record in front of a judge, and answer any questions the judge may have about their settlement.
Every county in Kansas has its own local rules and has established its own common practices for how things are done. In counties with fewer cases and less crowded dockets, the courts are not overly burdened by requiring the parties to a divorce action to read their proposed divorce settlement on the record. This approach is adopted by many Kansas counties, and has the advantage of allowing the judge to give each proposed divorce agreement a more thorough review.
In Wichita, requiring parties to a divorce to go on the record in front of a judge to complete every divorce would cause a great deal of strain on the Sedgwick County courts. Therefore, parties who file and complete their divorce in Sedgwick County are allowed to file notarized Interrogatories in lieu of appearing in Court.
These Interrogatories generally state that the party signing the Journal Entry and Decree of Divorce which is being submitted to the Court has reviewed it, finds it to be fair, just, and equitable, and is in agreement with its terms. The Interrogatories also must state the reason why the party is unable to appear in Court. Acceptable answers can be as simple as "work obligations," or "prior commitments."
In Wichita, the Journal Entry and Decree of Divorce is still submitted to a judge for review, but the parties to an uncontested divorce are typically able to avoid making the court appearance through filing Interrogatories.
Hiring divorce lawyer sin Wichita KS to review your proposed uncontested divorce and guide you through the process is the safest option for anyone looking to pursue their divorce in Sedgwick County. Online legal services such as those offered at familylawks.com make this option not only safe, but cost effective as well.

It seems every high school basketball coach has a favorite memory or funny story from spending time with his or her team over the holidays. With school out for two weeks, teams go out of town to play in tournaments, and unique or unusual things happen.
Two years ago, the Lovett boys arrived on Long Island in New York for the Wheatley Invitational shortly before a blizzard hit the area. There was so much snow that the school system shut down county vehicle transportation for a day, forcing the tournament to alter its schedule and play second-round games on Sunday.
Lovett coach Chuck Melito had to call the GHSA to obtain special permission to play on Sunday. "Dr. [Ralph] Swearngin said he would allow us to play as long as I promised to take the team out West the next year," Melito said with a laugh.
At the same time in 2008, the Wesleyan girls played in a Phoenix tournament and flew back home with one fewer person. Wesleyan's scorekeeper missed the flight, which worried the rest of the girls. The scorekeeper nearly had to stay in Arizona for Christmas, but was placed on a later flight.
When Milton's David Boyd was coaching at Berkmar, he discovered the team was missing a baby-faced freshman player after a team meal. "Somebody on the bus yelled out 'Where' Alex?'" Boyd said. "We turned the bus around and he was standing by the curb very upset that we'd left him. He had, shall we say, an 'extended' bathroom stop."
Roswell's Ty Phillips was an assistant coach at Harrison when the team traveled to a Missouri tournament and dined at the original Lambert's Cafe, billed as "The Only Home of Throwed Rolls." The customers catch and eat rolls thrown to them by the servers.
"We thought it was strange that the players all went outside quickly after the meal," Phillips recalled. "They had been stockpiling their rolls and, when the assistant coaches came out, we got nailed with the rolls in an ambush. I never knew rolls could be packed so tightly and hurt like that."
Holiday tournaments also present opportunities to match up against high-profile players from other states. In 2005, Blessed Trinity lost in the championship game of the Holy Angels Christmas Tournament in Charlotte that was far from uneventful.
"Stephen Curry, currently of the NBA's Golden State Warriors, scored his 2,000th career point against us in that game," Blessed Trinity coach Brian Marks said. "We played a box-and-one defense on Curry in the second half to slow him down. It worked until he pulled up from about 30 feet out and drained a 3-pointer to go over 2,000 career points."
Wesleyan coach Skip Matherly had a similar experience in a 55-47 loss to North Carolina's Christ School around four years ago. The winning team was led by the Miles and Mason Plumlee, brothers who played for Duke's national championship team last season.
Coaches never know what they will get from the opposing team. When Buford's Gene Durden coached at another school, he played against an Illinois team that scrambled at the last minute to get enough girls to go on the trip.
"We started to press like my teams do and, after around six turnovers, [the opposing coach] had one of his players sit on the floor and just quit playing, with her hands over her eyes," Durden said. "I did not know what to do as a coach but we stopped the pressure and tried to help his player up and encourage her to play. It was a strange situation and, as a coach, I really did not know what to do."
Now it's YOUR turn. What is your favorite holiday memory watching or participating in high school sports? Please post below.

MORE NUC BOWL: NUC All-World practice gallery | Five story lines | Complete coverage
CHARLESTON, S.C. – The National Underclassmen Combine could not have asked for a more exciting finish to the inaugural All-World Gridiron Classic on Friday. Game MVP Michael Eubank hit future South Carolina speedster Damiere Byrd for the winning score with 47 seconds left, giving Team World a 20-17 victory over Team NUC. Johnson Hagood Stadium on the campus of The Citadel was the site of more than 70 D-I athletes looking to show off their football skills. Below are those athletes that had the biggest impact in the outcome of the game as seen by Rivals.com analyst Barry Every.
Top 10 NUC All-World Classic players
1. Michael Eubank, 6-5/232, PQB, Corona (Calif.) Centennial (Team World)
COMMITTED TO: Arizona State, but more schools are offering daily.
PERFORMANCE: Was 6-for-6 for 125 yards and two score while running for an additional 31 yards. His efforts garnered him MVP.
STRENGTHS: Tremendous overall size, good arm strength, and a very physical runner that is hard to bring down. His teammates nicknamed him Lil' Cam.
WEAKNESSES: Work on keeping eyes downfield while moving around in the pocket avoiding the rush. Sometimes he takes off with the ball too early.
2. Jabari Hunt-Days, 6-2/226, OLB Powder Springs (Ga.) Hillgrove (Team NUC)
COMMITTED TO: Georgia Tech
PERFORMANCE: Recorded 11 tackles, had one TFL and blocked an extra point in 20-17 loss to Team World.
STRENGTHS: Excellent overall size and body structure to go along with great closing speed. He is big enough and versatile enough to play all three linebacker positions. Also looked great on punt coverage.
WEAKNESSES: Needs to use hands to keep blockers off his body especially his legs.
3. Damiere Byrd, 5-9/165, WR, Sicklerville (N.J.) Timber Creek (Team World)
COMMITTED TO: South Carolina
PERFORMANCE: Had five catches for 52 yards and two touchdowns, one of which was the winning score with 47 seconds left in the game. His efforts earned him offensive player of the game.
STRENGTHS: He is one of the fastest players in the country, runs better routes than the average track athlete and demonstrated soft hands.
WEAKNESSES: Has to add some size and strength because he is slight in stature at this time. This will help with durability and breaking more tackles.
4. Andre Sturdivant, 6-2/249, ILB, Cleveland (Ohio) Glenville (Team World)
CONSIDERING: May have it down to Ohio State and Penn State.
PERFORMANCE: He was in on seven tackles, two TFLs, one PBU and had a sack in earning defensive player of the game.
STRENGTHS: Showed excellent versatility playing defensive end and some linebacker in the game. He has excellent speed coming off the edge and was able to turn his hips and run with backs.
WEAKNESSES: May be better suited playing weakside defensive end at the next level. This means working more than an outside pass rushing move.
5. Kameel Jackson, 6-0/198, WR, Arlington (Texas) Sam Houston (Team NUC)
COMMITTED TO: Oklahoma
PERFORMANCE: Had a game-high seven catches for 163 yards in a losing effort.
STRENGTHS: Jackson runs precise routes and definitely knows how to find the holes in the defense. He also showed soft hands and the intelligence to come back to the ball when the quarterback was flushed out of the pocket.
WEAKNESSES: Speed has been something he has been working on for two years and is still an area that may need improvement.
6. Johnny Manziel, 6-1/193, DQB, Kerrville (Texas) Tivy (Team NUC)
COMMITTED TO: Texas A&M
PERFORMANCE: Ran for 77 yards while completing 6-of-8 passes for 80 yards and a score in a losing effort to Team World.
STRENGTHS: He is a magician with the ball in his hands. His ability to escape sure tackles and still make positive yardage is a thing of beauty.
WEAKNESSES: Needs to set his feet while squaring his shoulders to the target before he unleashes a pass. Sometimes his elbow drops below his shoulders causing the ball to sail a bit high.
7. Clint Tucker, 6-2/285, DT, East St. Louis (Ill.) (Team World)
COMMITTED TO: Illinois
PERFORMANCE: Was in on six tackles and had two quarterback pressures in a winning effort.
STRENGTHS: He demonstrated excellent strength and pad level while collapsing the pocket. Several times he took on more than one defender allowing teammates to apply pressure. Tucker is also a surprisingly good athlete for a true nose guard.
WEAKNESSES: Needs to be mindful of his weight because he is already at maximum size.
8. Eric Ebron, 6-5/225, TE, Greensboro (N.C.) Ben L Smith (Team World)
COMMITTED TO: North Carolina
PERFORMANCE: Had two catches for 50 yards and a score in helping Team World to a 20-17 victory.
STRENGTHS: The combination of height and athletic ability make him a mismatch for linebackers to cover.
WEAKNESSES: Needs to add more size and strength, which should improve his blocking versus bigger defensive ends.
9. Zack Shaw, 6-3/218, ILB, Coshocton (Ohio) (Team World)
COMMITTED TO: Indiana
PERFORMANCE: Recorded eight tackles in a 20-17 victory.
STRENGTHS: Demonstrated excellent lateral movement and the ability to go sideline-to-sideline making tackles in the open field.
WEAKNESSES: He is a bit thin right now so adding some size will allow him to bounce around in the tackle box with the big boys.
10. Connor Myers, 6-0/287, DT, Edmond (Okla.) Edmond Memorial (Team World)
CONSIDERING: Only has Air Force offer at this time, which is difficult to believe.
PERFORMANCE: Was in on five tackles, four of which were solo, and had a sack in victory over Team NUC.
STRENGTHS: Myers was the big surprise player in the game using good leverage and incredible strength to get push. He also did a nice job shedding blockers and sliding down the line of scrimmage to make plays.
WEAKNESSES: Height is the only thing holding him back from getting several more D-I offers. What he lacks in height he makes up for with excellent technique and sheer determination.

Protection Warrior Tank Gems, Enchants, Professions, and Consumables (MoP 5.4)
On this page, we present you with the best gems and enchants for a Protection Warrior in World of Warcraft MoP 5.4. We also list the best consumables (food, flasks, and potions) and profession-specific perks.
Make sure to check our Gear Optimisation Guide, which serves as a support guide for this page.
The other pages of our Protection Warrior guide can be accessed from the table of contents on the right.
This guide has been reviewed and approved by Poyo, Guild Master and Warrior tank of Envy.
1. Gems↑top
|Austere Primal Diamond or Indomitable Primal Diamond (better)
If you are still unsure what the optimal gemming strategy is for your character, you can Ask Mr. Robot for a personalised optimisation of your character's gear, by filling the form below.
2. Enchants↑top
|Main Enchantments
|Extra Enchantments
|Enchant Chest - Superior Stamina
|Socket Bracer (Blacksmithing)
|Living Steel Belt Buckle
|Enchant Boots - Pandaren's Step
|Enchant Ring - Greater Stamina (Enchanting)
|Enchant Shield - Greater Parry
Note that Extra Enchantments can be applied to an item in addition to a Main Enchantment.
3. Consumables↑top
3.1. Food
We advise you to always eat food that gives you Stamina. You will be granted:
- 450 Stamina by Chun Tian Spring Rolls, Stuffed Lushrooms, or Pandaren Treasure Noodle Soup;
- 415 Stamina by Twin Fish Platter, Deluxe Noodle Soup, Banquet of the Oven, or Great Banquet of the Oven;
- 375 Stamina by Wildfowl Roast, Noodle Soup, or any of the other banquets.
3.2. Flask
For the vast majority of encounters, you should use a Flask of the Earth. Your other option is Flask of Winter's Bite, which grants you Strength. Strength provides you with increased DPS/threat, as well as increasing your chance to parry.
3.3. Potion
During the encounter, your best choice for a potion will be Potion of the Mountains for physical damage and Master Healing Potion for magic damage.
In order to boost your DPS (which is considerable), you can use a Potion of Mogu Power instead of the above-mentioned potions (which have a relatively small effect on your survivability).
4. Summing-up Profession Perks↑top
Choosing a profession for your Protection Warrior can impact your raid performance. As a rule, you should shy away from gathering professions (with the exception of Mining), which leaves the following viable professions for raiding:
|Provides a 640 Mastery or 480 Stamina gain through two extra sockets, Socket Bracer and Socket Gloves, in which you can fit 2 Fractured Sun's Radiance or 2 Solid River's Heart..
|Provides a 320 Dodge/Parry or Critical Strike Rating gain through the ability to use 2 Subtle Serpent's Eye, Flashing Serpent's Eye, or Smooth Serpent's Eye respectively, or a 480 Stamina gain through the ability to use 2 Solid Serpent's Eye (if you are gemming for Stamina).
|Provides a 1,920 Dodge Rating bonus for 10 seconds, on a 1 minute cooldown, through Phase Fingers.
|Provides a 480 Stamina gain to your flask through Mixology.
|Provides +750 Stamina through Fur Lining - Stamina, instead of the usual +170 Dodge provided by Enchant Bracer - Major Dodge or +170 Mastery provided by Enchant Bracer - Mastery. Also provides Heavy Leg Reinforcements, a much cheaper equivalent to Ironscale Leg Armor, the traditional leg enchant.
|Provides a 480 Stamina gain through Enchant Ring - Greater Stamina.
|Provides a 480 Stamina gain through Secret Ox Horn Inscription.
|Provides a 480 Stamina gain, through Toughness.
The best profession for a Protection Warrior is Leatherworking, which offers a huge Stamina gain on an item on which you cannot otherwise obtain Stamina. It also allows you to use Drums of Speed, which can be beneficial.
5. Changelog↑top
- 13 Jan. 2014: Added new food items added in patch 5.4.
- 16 Oct. 2013: Rectified the Jewelcrafting entry to no longer refer to Mastery Rating gains.
- 15 Oct. 2013: Vastly reworked the gemming suggestions (including adding a gemming strategy for full Critical Strike Rating gearing).

The Utah Film Commission markets the entire state as a location for film, television and commercial production by promoting the use of local professionals, support services and Utah locations. The film commission is a client-driven program that serves international, out-of-state and in-state production companies, along with Utah support services and crew.
Motion Picture Incentive Program
The purpose of the Motion Picture Incentive Program (MPIP) is to encourage the use of Utah as a destination for the production of motion pictures, television series and made-for-television movies. The State of Utah provides financial incentives to the film industry so that the State is capable of competing successfully with other states and countries that offer film production incentives. The MPIP allows Utah to foster a strong local motion picture industry that will contribute substantially to improving the State's economy.
The MPIP functions as a tax credit or cash rebate for approved productions and operates on a post-performance basis on expenditures that are made in the state.
Sony Pictures
In June of 2012 the production of AFTER EARTH was filmed in the Moab area. The film tells the story of a father and son that have crash landed on a planet that was evacuated by humans 1,000 years earlier. Overall, the Sony Pictures film will have a projected spend of nearly $2.3 million in the state. According to executive producer E. Bennett Walsh, the production hired 130 locals and spent at least $400,000 in local accommodations and food during the ten days of filming. AFTER EARTH directed by M. Night Shyamalan, starring Will Smith and Jaden Smith, will be released in theaters July of 2013.
State Approved Rebate Percentages
Tax Credit: 20% – 25% on dollars left in the State with no per-project cap • Cash Rebate: 20% – 25% on dollars left in the State up to $500,000 per project • Cash Rebate: 15% on dollars left in the State up to $999,999 per project The base incentive of 20% is available for productions with a minimum of $1,000,000 spend in the State of Utah.
To be awarded a 25% film incentive, a production must meet the definition of "significant percentage of cast and crew (hired) from Utah" which is 85% for productions that spend at least $1,000,000 in the state or 70% if the production spends a minimum $7,500,000 in the state.
Disney/ABC Family
Disney filmed two major productions in Utah. First was the ABC Family (a division of Disney) production of THE MISTLETONES, which filmed in the greater Salt Lake City area during February and March of 2012. This cable feature tells the story of two rival musical singing groups that challenge each other during the holiday season. THE MISTLETONES which stars Tori Spelling and Tia Mowry, had expenditures reaching over $3.6 million for the State of Utah. The cable feature will air on the ABC Family channel in November of 2012. Walt Disney Pictures returned to the Moab area to film a
Sustainable Competition
The Utah Film Commission continues to be competitive in the western states region when it comes to film production. The MPIP offering up to 25% fully refundable tax credit along with inherent incentives such as industry infrastructure, crew, talent, proximity to Los Angeles and diverse locations will continue to sustain the motion picture and television industry in the State of Utah.
portion of their new major tent-pole franchise, THE LONE RANGER. The film is the retelling of the Lone Ranger, how lawman John Reid was transformed into to the legend as told by the Native American spirit warrior Tonto. Directed by Gore Verbinski, starring Johnny Depp and Armie Hammer, THE LONE RANGER has a projected expenditure of $9 million in the State of Utah. The movie will be released in theaters in July of 2013.
