TONY STEWART/#29 Home Depot Chevrolet was fastest in NASCAR's 'Happy Hour' final practice with a time of 77.289/92.691 mph.
CLINT BOWYER/#07 Jack Daniels Chevrolet and KEVIN HARVICK/#29 GM Goodwrench Chevrolet skipped the second Saturday Practice session to fly to Milwaukee for qualifying in the NASCAR Busch Series
AT&T 250 Race. Bowyer/#2 AC Delco Chevrolet qualified fourth and Harvick/#21 U.S. Coast Guard Chevrolet qualified eighteenth.
Top Rookie, DENNY HAMLIN/#11 FedEx Chevrolet ran the session, finishing twenty-seventh. He missed qualifying at Milwaukee, but his #20 Rockwell Automation Chevrolet was put on pole by replacement driver, ARIC ALMIROLA. Hamlin will have to start the race from the back of the pack due to the driver change.
SCOTT RIGGS/#10 Valvoline Dodge has BILL ELLIOTT on standby this weekend just in case,but doesn't anticipate needing Elliot to take overdriving duties. Riggs suffered lacerated feet from a jet ski accident earlier this week, which required stitches. So far he's been good to go in his car, with a little help from his friends. Teammate JEREMY MAYFIELD/#19 Dodge Dealers Dodge loaned Riggs shoes, which are two sizes larger to accommodate the bandages. BORIS SAID/#60 Sobe-No Fear Ford taught him the fine art of right front braking which helped a lot. Riggs will start the race in twenty-fifth position.
Rookie RICARDO IMERY/#64 AXA Porsche 911 GT3 took his first ever pole in the SCCA Pro Racing SPEED World Challenge Series GT Class Saturday morning with a lap of 1:17.943/91.913 mph. He just started racing the series last season and is running his first full season. The Venezuelan's lap time would have placed him in the ninth row for the Nextel Cup race.
This was Imery's first time at Infineon Raceway.
PIERRE KLEINUBING/#42 Realtime Acura TSX be at his boss in qualifying to take the pole for the SPEED World Challenge Touring Championship with a fast lap of 1:22.786/86.536 mph. This was his twenty-eighth pole position in the series, which he has been in for the past ten years. Kleinubing has been racing for the past ten years in the series and with RealTime racing, owned by PETER CUNNINGHAM/#1 RealTime Acura TSX, who qualified second.
Kleinubing said it was a "perfect lap in a perfect day," a native of Brazil, just became a US Citizen ten days ago and is quite proud and pleased.
Cunningham currently holds the record for number of World Challenge poles - 29, but Kleinubing pointed out that at one point, he had more poles than Cunningham. It has been a long friendly rivalry.
Kleinubing has also raced the full road course configuration at Infineon Raceway and prefers the NASCAR course. He especially likes the Esses - they are more challenging (pun intended) and he doesn't miss the Carousel - the part of the course not used for NASCAR,
CHARLES ESPENLAUB/#97 Sparco Mazda 6 was third fastest in a field of 28 cars.
LANCE STEWART/#6 Circuit City Mazda 6 didn't qualify, as his car lost an engine Friday. It was to have been a big reunion for Stewart and his long-ago engine team owner, OSCAR JACKSON, who came out of a sixteen-year retirement to run the race with Stewart. Turned out to be a short weekend.
CHIP HERR/#17 StaSIS Motorsports Audi A4 was moved to the back of the starting grid after his car failed post-qualifying Scrutineering. It had a noncompliant boost level due to a failed boost control module.
It will be challenging (pun intended) for the drivers to race Saturday afternoon in the heat of the day. So far this companion weekend they have been on course early morning and late afternoon. It will mean changing setups, including shocks. Another challenge this weekend has been running with NASCAR, something they haven't done before this season. The NASCAR tyres are different from any other kind of tyres run the same weekend as World Challenge, and it has made a difference, said Kleinubing. The track is slipperier after NASCAR.
The two World Challenge races will run Saturday afternoon, after the West Series race.

Pardon us if we Utahns are unavailable this weekend while we're out celebrating. It's time for our annual Pioneer Days holiday — aka Days of '47, whatever — the second time in one month we have an excuse to light fireworks.
A pioneer holiday?
Well, 164 years ago, the Mormons were chased out of the Midwest by mobs and turned into pioneers, arriving in Utah on July 24, 1847, after a journey that didn't include TSA pat-downs, long lines at security, middle seats, $4 gas and drivers with cellphones, but was actually a little worse and more inconvenient.
The rest is history. Before there was Temple Square, Lagoon, the Utah Jazz, State Street, Larry Miller, John Stockton, Snowbird, Sundance, the Salt Palace, Utes and Cougars, Brigham Young University and Jimmer — there were pioneers who did the dirty work that enabled all of the above to happen. They came at great sacrifice to pave the way for the rest of us to be here.
We're pretty happy about that.
There are celebrations of various types all over the state this weekend. One of them will consist of a small ceremony Friday evening in American Fork City Park. It will include the unveiling of a statue commemorating the life of a man who left a dream job and a dream house to travel thousands of miles from England to Utah by land and sea to live in crowded one-room shacks in Utah and scratch a living out of the wilderness.
His name was Edward Robinson.
It's not every day someone erects a statue honoring your great-great-great-great grandfather.
For many of us, the Pioneer Days celebration is more personal.
Edwards' story is just one of thousands that paint a picture of hardship, sacrifice, and back-breaking work. Born in 1807 in Chesire, England, he served as footman in his youth, caring for race horses and hounds for the noble class. At 21, he married Mary Smith, who was serving as tutor on the same manor. They would have nine children together, including John, who — to get Biblical on you — begat William Jarvis Robinson, who begat Brigham H. Robinson, who begat Richard Osmond Robinson, who begat me.
Later, Edward, according to the story told by his granddaughter, Myrtle Robinson Seastrand, would be hired as the first conductor of a locomotive known as The Rocket, the most advanced steam engine of that day. It traveled from Manchester to Liverpool in a break-neck top speed of 26 miles per hour, which is a little slower than the speed Jamaica's Usain Bolt achieved while winning the 100-meter dash in the 2009 World Track and Field Championships. For Edward, it was a prestigious job and afforded him a good lifestyle.
Ten years later, in 1840, Mormonism reached England from its birthplace in America. Mary was interested in the new religion. When her one-year-old child William took ill, she sent for the missionaries. One of those missionaries was none other than Brigham Young, who blessed William that he not only would be made well, but would live a long life (86 years, it turned out). The Robinsons joined the church. A year or so later, Mary convinced Edward to quit his job and leave his homeland to join the Mormons in Illinois. They traveled nine weeks on the Atlantic with six children, then rode another boat up the Mississippi to Nauvoo. Thinking the family would settle there permanently, Edward used his savings to build a beautiful two-story brick home.
In 1844, the dream unraveled. The mobs murdered Mormon Prophet Joseph Smith and his brother Hyrum, and Mary died in childbirth. Edward employed Ann Wooton, a widow with four children, to take care of the household (a total of 10 children). They eventually married.
The mobs forced another move. Edward traded his brick house for a team of horses and moved his family to Iowa. They saved their money for four years and in the spring of 1849 they traveled in the Ezra T. Benson Company to Salt Lake Valley, arriving in October.
They rented the John Taylor farm, and this family of 13 spent their first winter crammed into a one-room house. Another move was coming. Church authorities asked families to settle other valleys. The Robinsons headed to what is known as Utah Valley and liked it so well that they settled into another one-room house. Three generations of Robinsons would live on the property before it was turned into American Fork City Park.
Edward built a large six-room house. He planted trees and grass and shrubs and lilacs from England and rows of roses outlining the gravel walk to the door of the house, along with large beds of other flowers. The back corner of the house contained roses of all colors. The town called it Robinsons's Rose Corner.
Ann died and Edward eventually remarried again, this time to Margaret Govsvene.
But Edward, the former footman and conductor, was now a land owner able to live and worship free of lawless mobs, as America had originally promised, and he prospered the rest of his life. He died in 1896.
He was buried in the American Fork Cemetery. His tombstone features a drawing of "The Rocket." It's engraved, "Edward Robinson, the First Railroad Conductor in the World."

3 Ways Olivia Wilde Can Fix Her Eyebrow Problem
WriterMama on 12 Jul 2012 at 5:00pm
Olivia Wilde has a hair-owing history with her eyebrows. It began when she was just five years old, and she shaved her face—including her unsuspecting brows—with her father's razor. It left her looking "like an alien without eyebrows."
Since then, she's experienced mounting problems with brow grooming. "In my mid-teens, I plucked them to create that sexy Kate Moss arch," she told ABC News. "I regret it because it damaged my follicles, and now it's hard for me to grow thick, bushy brows."
Olivia no longer plucks. But if she's looking for thicker brows, there's hope for her—and every woman whose brows are skimpier than they'd like. If you're tired of penciling them in every morning, there are now some more permanent solutions for thicker brows.
Latisse: Grow your own brows
Latisse is marketed as a product that'll give you fuller, thicker, and longer eyelashes. However, users have found it also works on brows.
"I actually had to switch mascaras to one that doesn't lengthen lashes. My sparse eyebrows are also showing signs of improvement," says RealSelf community member SnapDragonfly.
Despite it only being FDA-approved lashes, doctors support the use of Latisse for eyebrows, too. "I have many patients in my practice who have found it to work quite well on their eyebrows," says facial plastic surgeon Dr. Michael Elam. "One of my clients who is the most esteemed eyebrow shaper in Newport Beach has also told me that she has seen exceptional results with many of her clients that have used it off-label in this area."
Still curious? Check out: Ten reviews of Latisse for eyebrows
uGraft: Borrowing hair from elsewhere
Hair transplants have been hugely successful in other areas—so why not your brows? Dermatologic surgeon Dr. Sanusi Umar designed the uGraft machine to create more options for hair transplant donor sites -- specifically using fine leg and neck hair to fill in hair lines. But he found that it's also ideal for transplanting those hairs to the brows.
"Advanced [follicular unit extraction] with uGraft is capable of transplanting hair from almost anywhere on the body, however, leg hair is ideal for eyebrow transplant for two reasons: its naturally thinner caliber (which makes for an excellent match to blend with the remaining eyebrow hair), and its naturally stunted length and slower growth," says Dr. Umar.
See it to believe it: 30+ eyebrow transplant before & after photos
Eyebrow tattoos: Permanent ink
At first the idea might sound weird—having eyebrows tattooed onto your face? You'd think this method would make your eyebrows stand out, just not in a good way. However, many women love the look of eyebrow tattoos.
"After years of perhaps being a little overzealous with the wax and the tweezers, I noticed my eyebrows were not growing back and I did not have an arch or ends," says RealSelf member NewJersey6995. "I used to use pencil and powder to draw on brows and wound up with dark brown oily eyelids after a few hours. I tend to rub my eyebrow/forehead when I am tired and that would remove more makeup. Now I wake up with brows, can swim with brows, and rub my forehead to my heart's content."
2/3 of reviewers say permanent makeup is worth it
Olivia Wilde could definitely benefit from any of these eyebrow-restoring solutions. Do you think a permanent brow procedure is worth it, if it means you'll be able to toss those eyebrow pencils in the trash forever? Let us know in the comments!

Coverings 2013 product showcase
June 12, 2013
The Georgia World Congress Center in Atlanta, GA, was a vivid display of stone and tile collections at Coverings 2013, which was held this spring. With over 900 exhibitors from more than 50 different countries, the show floor was buzzing with activity. The latest introductions in tile product lines revealed textures, bold colors, shimmering glass and authentic-looking replications of natural material. On the stone side, larger formats, more exotic stones and new lines of quartz surfacing were prevalent.
Additionally, manufacturers of stone and tile in-stallation and maintenance/care products were also among the exhibitors. It was apparent that many of these manufacturers are developing product lines with the environment in mind.
The following is just a glimpse of the plentiful exhibits of new products that were showcased at Coverings 2013. SEE SLIDESHOW

If rumors are to be believed, Namrata Shirodkar and Mahesh Babu might be seen on screen after a gap of 15 years. The couple had earlier made the Telugu film Vamsi together. A.R. Murugadoss and Mahesh Babu have started work on their highly expected mega budget film. Rumors suggest that the makers of the movie have approached Namrata to play an important role in the film. Mahesh also felt that Namrata could be perfect for the important cameo. Fans of the couple are excited as they might get to see their favorite real life pair on screen. Namrata was an actress before she got to married to Mahesh Babu, she then quit acting to concentrate on her family.
Other than Mahesh Babu, Rakul Preet will be playing the female lead and SJ Suryah is all set to play the villain in the film. Confirmation on Namrata's cameo is still awaited from Murugadoss's team.

A hard-fought century by New Zealand vice-captain Amy Satterthwaite was in vain as the team lost to England by 15 runs in its final Super Six fixture and also failed to qualify for the final of the ICC Women's World Cup India 2013.
Having won the toss and elected to bat, Charlotte Edwards and Sarah Taylor were back to their sublime batting best with the captain striking 54 while Taylor hit 16 boundaries on her way to 88 before departing after being caught by Nicola Browne.
England's Heather Knight and Jenny Gunn added 38 for the seventh wicket and the side posted the respectable total of 266 for six after Lucy Doolan (2-25) and Morna Nielsen (2-57) claimed wickets for the White Ferns.
In response, captain Suzie Bates led from the front in the run-chase, striking 12-boundaries before departing for 79 after Gunn re-arranged the 25-year-old from Dunedin's stumps. The innings was then guided by Satterthwaite's 126-ball 103, which took the side to 214 and ever-closer to victory over England.
However, New Zealand's batting could not sustain the momentum set up by Satterthwaite and Bates and some nifty bowling from Holly Colvin (3-48) and Jenny Gunn meant New Zealand fell short by just 15 runs.
Post-match, Bates was enigmatic about the defeat and admitted it was tough finding out mid-match that West Indies had beaten Australia to claim the second spot in the final: "It was disappointing today as both teams were going into the game playing for a spot in the final and it would have been easier to not to have known that West Indies had won. However, both teams are competitive and it was a good game of cricket at the end of the day and we both stepped up to the mark and ultimately finished the day with a good game of cricket."
With regards to the format of the tournament and the fact the side will play England again, Bates said: "I think it doesn't work out like this that often (that the final round of Super Six matches are then repeated in the play-offs). You can't complain, if Australia had gotten up and beaten West Indies this could have been a totally different situation and we wouldn't have had to play England again on Friday.
"I think having a Super Six gives teams everything to play for as the pool games count towards points for this stage and that means every game is crucial, it's actually a better format than if you had a semi-final style where a team could potentially have one poor performance which means they lose out on the whole tournament even if they've done well in the group stage."
England captain, Edwards said on missing out on a place in the ICC Women's World Cup final: "I'm pretty heartbroken really, the tempo of the game changed and it was disappointing for both teams once we found out West Indies had won, but then I don't know why I'm surprised about the West Indies win as this tournament has been full of surprises.
"Once we got over the disappointment halfway through I think we was all about a professional performance of the girls and I'm proud of how both teams went on to play and showed a really good display of women's cricket despite the circumstances."
Edwards admitted the current World Champions had not played as well as they should have, saying: "We came here to win this tournament and we haven't, we haven't even got into the final. But it's not about that now, we were very inconsistent in the first phase of the tournament and we are possibly now playing our best cricket now which is too late, which is disappointing for us as players.
"It is tournament cricket and we've paid for our slow start and at the wrong time we're really hitting straps but these players are world class players who will bounce back and that's just tournament cricket."
Edwards added that England had no excuses for its two early losses but the tournament had shown the world how much women's cricket had improved, commenting: "There's no excuses from us in the two losses, we didn't hold our catches and we didn't play well enough against Sri Lanka, who have also really improved.
"The great thing for me sitting here now, although it's disappointing for England but with my women's cricket hat on, it's exciting that the teams are coming closer together, teams are beating teams that you would never have expected, so globally we've got to be very proud of what this tournament has done for women's cricket, but with my England hat on I'm pretty much heartbroken."
A hard-fought century by New Zealand vice-captain Amy Satterthwaite was in vain as the team lost to England by 15 runs in its final Super Six fixture and also failed to qualify for the final of the ICC Women's World Cup India 2013.

text: Asia PacificAustralia prepares island immigration camp Plans afoot to send asylum-seekers to tiny nation of Nauru later this week to deter them from making the sea voyage. 10 Sep 2012 11:20 GMT | Asia Pacific, Afghanistan, Australia, Indonesia, Iran Australia is preparing to send its first group of asylum seekers to an immigration facility on the Pacific island of Nauru as part of the government's offshore processing programme. Chris Bowen, Australian immigration miinister, said on Monday he hoped to begin sending asylum-seekers to the tiny nation later this week, to deter them from paying people-smugglers to attempt the dangerous sea voyage. Paul Power, CEO of the Refugee Council of Australia, told Al Jazeera on Monday that the government, which had previously labelled such facilities as unnecessary and cruel, decided to rebuild the island camps as a "short-term circuit breaker". "But the concern of the Refugee Council of Australia is that this isn't going to have the impact that the government hopes it will," he said. Al Jazeera's Andrew Thomas said almost 10,000 people, mainly from Iran, Afghanistan and Sri Lanka, have travelled by boats from Indonesia and headed to Australia this year. Human Rights Watch, the US-based watchdog group, called on Monday on Indonesia and Australia to take effective measures to protect child asylum-seekers stranded in Indonesia as they make perilous sea voyages to Australia. Hundreds of children, especially unaccompanied ones, face detention, mistreatment in custody, no access to education and little or no basic assistance in Indonesia, the New York-based rights watchdog said citing its recent study. "Far too many children take incredibly risky journeys because they face no good choices," Zama Coursen-Neff, group's children's rights director, said in a statement. "They can't go home because of persecution or war, and they can't stay put, because Indonesia doesn't assist with basic needs or address their legal status."Source: Al Jazeera and agencies

WESTLECOT men virtually sealed their place in the Wessex League play-offs with victory in their re-arranged East Region match last weekend.
They recorded a comfortable 23 shots win over Banbury Cross in a game that was originally scheduled for January 20 but was called off because of snow.
Westlecot beat the Oxfordshire side 99-76, winning on two of the four rinks to collect 12 points out of the maximum 16 on offer.
This success moved Westlecot up into second in the table, just three points behind West Berks but eight clear of Carterton who they face tomorrow in their final group match.
The win over Banbury ensured a top-three finish in the league and a play-off spot, barring an unlikely series of resutls tomorrow.
Westlecot were always ahead across the board against Banbury, making a fine start to lead 28-16 at five ends and 61-31 at 10.
They were 81-52 up at 15 but pulled back slightly in the last few ends to finally win 99-76. At Westlecot Neil Smith's rink raced into a 28-2 lead at nine ends, were hauled back slightly afterwards but still won by 20 shots.
Alongside John Thomas' quartet was tied 3-3 at five ends but led 10-6 at 12. However, they only scored once more, a three on the 19th end and went down by 11 shots.
In Banbury it was a case of mixed fortunes with Chris Cheesley winning easily and Ian Jefferies playing catch-up throughout.
Cheesley's rink were 15-5 up at 10 ends, 23-6 at 15 and 27-6 at 18 and finally won by 22 shots.
However, Jefferies' foursome were 10-4 down at five ends, 15-10 adrift at 10 and losing 23-15 at 15. They did not make any more in-roads, finally losing by eight shots.
There are several changes to the Westlecot team that beat Banbury last weekend for tomorrow's vital east region game against Carterton.
Two of the changes are at skip where Dave Snell replaces the unavailable Neil Smith while Tom Walkley, a late withdrawal last week, returns with John Thomas reverting to leading a rink.

Santon aka Dan, was born in Bucharest,Romania. Although he is a professional dj for many years now, his passion for music started at a very early age inspired by Jean Michel Jarre music.
Over the years his musical taste evolved through the hard "Cosmic Gate" sound. Today, Santon defines himself as a fast growing producer. His DJ background helped and brought him to the point were he needs to make his own music but nevertheless respect more and more the producers that inspire him. People like Gorge, Nick Curly, Carlo Lio and many more.
His biggest accomplishment is considered to be a ground breaking series of parties in Lessvos Island Greece in 2009.

text: Hacker Re-signs With SuperTrapp, Joins With Patrick | November 23, 2004 The following information has been released by SuperTrapp: SuperTrapp Industries, manufacturer of the preferred exhaust in dirt track racing, announces the continued name and title sponsorship of dirt track racer Mike Hacker. New for the 2005 season is a partnership between Hacker and tuner Carl Patrick, acclaimed builder of XR750 engines for flat track racers like Joe Kopp, Doug Chandler and Nicky Hayden. "This year was a rebuilding year for me," said Hacker, who finished seventh in the points chase. "I felt better and better as the year went on and gained more confidence with each race. My main goal for 2005 is just to win races – take it one race at a time and let the rest of it fall into place." Supertrapp Race Coordinator Ted Bradley is excited about this signing and what it means for the 2005 season. "Mike showed the industry his hunger and dedication in 2002 at DuQuoin. He has been gaining momentum ever since. With the expertise of Carl Patrick, Mike's talent and the planned improvements to our racing systems, he has an excellent chance to win a championship in 2005." Carl Patrick, who's tuned for three No. 1 plates, chose to work with Hacker because of his "will to win. Mike has a lot of experience, trains hard and races each race to win. I'm looking forward to making great things happen this year." Patrick, along with team members Kenny Mohler and Dennis Town, will build four new bikes for Hacker for the 2005 season with the support of Lombardi's Harley Davidson of Staten Island, New York and Schott Harley Davidson of Louiston, Maine. One of Hacker's new bikes will include the engine from the bike Joe Kopp rode to No. 1 in 2001. Clayton Oliver, who has tuned for Hacker in the past, will also lend his expertise to the team.By Scott Rousseau Comments

Need to finance a car in California? Even if you have great credit, it can be tough to find the right lender. California auto finance rates are low, but the tough economy has made it considerably more difficult to open a new any new lines of credit, auto loans included. If you were to go from one bank, credit union, or dealership to another, submitting paper-based applications and waiting for a response, the process could days, weeks, even months. Luckily, we streamline the auto financing process by matching you and your application with a lender or dealer who matches your criteria in terms of:
- Location
- Down Payment
- Salary or Wages
- Credit History and Score
Of the lenders we represent, most have a target demographic. Some accommodate people with subprime credit, while others only cater to those with stellar credit scores. Some work with people who have low income, others high income. Some require minimum down payments, other don't. This is true of auto financing in California and across the nation. Without knowing which lenders are best for your unique circumstances and needs, you are effectively flying blind. That's why we developed our California auto finance application – to take the guesswork out of this process.
When you submit your application, you will not be bombarded with telephone calls or emails from multiple lenders. We place your application exclusively with a single lender. That means the process is painless and hassle-free. Just remember to submit accurate data in terms of income and contact information – this will expedite the process and increase your chances of getting approved for the car in California you need.
In House Financing Car Lots: California (CA)
Are you looking for a California dealership that finances bad credit? In house financing dealerships do just that. Because they approve credit on-site, they are not forced to turn away consumers whose credit doesn't meet the minimum guidelines of off-site, 3rd party lenders. This enables them to sell vehicles to a wider variety of shoppers. And for the buyer with bad credit, it takes the hassle out of CA auto credit.
When you complete your CA auto finance application, we may match you with such a dealership – it depends on what your credit and the current market dictate.

Accused killer first lost cyber-battle
An online gamer is accused of killing his cyber-rival after losing a fantasy game where they were pitted against each other in battle.
The violent blurring of the virtual and real worlds came after the pair had been playing an online game, each in his own house kilometres apart.
The Sunday Star-Times cannot reveal the names of the accused killer nor his victim, where the homicide took place or when, because the details may prejudice an eventual trial.
However, police have confirmed they believe the most likely motive for the attack was the game which the pair played in the hours immediately before the attack.
The dead man favoured PC-based role-playing games such as Guild Wars and Oblivion, which create complex fantasy worlds filled with swords and sorcery.
Guild Wars, part of a genre gamers call MMORPG (massively multiplayer online role-playing games), focuses on highly competitive player-versus-player action.
Players can spend considerable time and effort building characters - gaining experience, weaponry, armour and in-game money to become more powerful.
Police believe that after a dispute arose, the attacker was so enraged he drove the short distance to the quiet street where his friend lived, and stabbed him repeatedly with a knife.
Despite the apparent link between the killing and the violent video game, Christchurch-based clinical psychologist Craig Prince said there was no evidence violent online games created killers.
"It's often very difficult to pinpoint which variable contributed to these things because people are so complicated," he said. "It's usually that people have some underlying difficulty or problem already and the video game might contribute to the actions, but it's only one thing out of potentially many."
The man has appeared in court charged with murder. His parents would not speak to the Star-Times but an extended family member said: "He's just lovely. It's such a shock... it's obviously the last thing we expected."
The relative, who described the alleged killer as "academic and quiet", confirmed he enjoyed computer games but did not think he had any obsessive gaming tendencies.
His parents were unconcerned about his behaviour in the lead-up to the incident.
"It was just the most regular of nights and there were no warning signs - it was just the hugest shock to everybody," the relative said.
If the gaming link is proved in court, it will put New Zealand on an international stage.
The supposed link between video games and violence, alternatively mooted and refuted in contradictory multiple reports in recent years, resurfaced in the wake of the Sandy Hook Elementary School massacre in Connecticut, in the US.
The parents of the victim were unavailable to comment but colleagues of the dead man said he worked in the IT industry and produced "remarkable" work, while staying totally humble. Workmates described him as "quiet but very, very clever". They confirmed he was an avid gamer.
Adam Lanza, 20, killed 20 children and six staff on December 14 last year. Police said Lanza had dozens of violent video games that he played regularly and they were looking into whether there was a link between the games and the shootings.

AMERICAN IDOL Finalist Dexter Roberts Forced to Leave Top 10 National Tour
Dexter Roberts, who finished in the top ten of Season 13 of AMERICAN IDOL, has been sidelined from the current Idol tour now criss crossing the country due to a diagnosis of Rocky Mountain Spotted Tick Fever.
The singer announced the news of his illness and tour departure on his official Facebook page, explaining that he contracted the disease from a tick bite during a four-day turkey hunting trip following the 'Idol' season finale in May.
Robert's announcement follows:
"I would like to take this opportunity to thank all my fans, friends and family for all their prayers, patience and support through my illness. After months of hospital and doctor visits, I finally have a diagnosis. I have Rocky Mountain Spotted Tick Fever, with symptoms of fever, rash, headache, abdominal issues, shortness of breath and muscle pain.
After the American Idol finale show in May, I went on a turkey hunt in Kentucky. I found several ticks on me throughout the 4 day hunt, but that is nothing unusual for turkey hunting. Shortly after the American Idol tour started, I started having serve headaches, chest pains and muscle weakness on my left side, along with tremendous abdominal issues and shortness of breath. The medical facilities, while on tour, were unable to make a diagnosis. After my return home from the tour I found myself, once again, back at a hospital emergency room, where the doctor discovered a rash in my head from the tick bite. Day before yesterday, the blood work confirmed I have Rocky Mountain Spotted Tick Fever. I started medication yesterday.
Please continue to pray for my full recovery. I know God is in control of my life, and his path will be made clear for My Music career. He is my rock and salivation, and I trusting in him."

Viewpoint: Citizen academy gets off to arresting start
It's not often that most residents of a community interact with law enforcement, let alone get invited to tinker around with expensive police-issued equipment. But for the next eight weeks, I'll join 22 other people who live, work or own a business in Cottage Grove to learn the ins and outs of the city's Public Safety Department as part of the annual Citizens Academy.
Organized by police Sgt. Gwen Martin, the academy educates the everyday resident about the law enforcement sector — police, fire and EMS — by offering a crash course in public safety.
Tip No. 1: Do not ask about the Taser. Doing so automatically puts an invisible bullseye on your back to volunteer for the "demonstration" at the end of the academy. (I'm not keen on being tased, regardless if it has been called a "rite of passage," or that most all of the female participants have endured the pain. We'll revisit that as the weeks go on.)
Week one of the academy, last week, was reminiscent of syllabus day in school. We received our eight-week itinerary, went over the goals of both the academy and the Public Safety Department as a whole, and even caught a few scenes from "Super Troopers" and "Superbad." While much of the information relating to budget, statistics and law enforcement model was familiar, a tour of the Public Safety Department, which shares its space with City Hall, provided more insight into what it takes to protect a city of 35,000.
The Cottage Grove Police Department is comprised of 40 sworn officers, including a handful of sergeants. Public Safety Director/Police Chief Craig Woolery leads the entire department. Police Capt. Greg Rinzel oversees all patrol duties and police Capt. Pete Koerner handles all administrative duties. (He's often the one who provides the Bulletin with information about a bad crash, a DWI case or the occasional vehicle fire that followed a four-mile pursuit which ended in the wrong lane of traffic, for example.)
While the upper level of the public safety building is comprised of offices, cubicles, locker rooms and more offices, a tour of the lower level is when most everyone started to really pay attention. An area not typically seen by the public — unless you've been arrested or are awaiting transport to either detox or the Washington County jail — the waiting room and holding cells come in a variety of options.
Door No. 1 opens to a small cell, capable of holding a couple of people comfortably, several more if police are short on space. There are several of those cells. Door No. 2, referred to as the party room, can be used for a large number of people who had an unruly evening. And Door No. 3, which has limited views, is set aside for juveniles. State law dictates that juveniles cannot be in sight of adults while in holding cells so the juvenile cells face a different direction.
Out in the garage, a couple of on-duty officers returning from a call highlighted some key features in their vehicles. Did you know that the back seats of the new squads are now plastic? The black Ford Explorers turned high-tech policing machines have brought all the comforts of a jail cell to actually provide more comfort. In fact, it could be dubbed the Delta Airlines of police cars. The hard plastic backseat gives the unlucky arrested passenger more legroom, believe it or not. And in case arrestees can't hold their liquor, or other liquids for that matter, the plastic seats provide for easy cleanup with a quick blast from a hose.
And the Explorer is fast. Ecoboost technology supercharges the squad and can kick it into gear well over 100 mph.
With all of our questions about horsepower, ramming capabilities and emergency lights, it's no surprise the first night of the academy went long. To be fair, Sgt. Martin did warn us: "We might get out on time, but we will never get out early."
Reporter Emily Buss is participating in the eight-week Citizens Academy, hosted by the Cottage Grove Public Safety Department. Follow her reports weekly in the Bulletin.

Winners in Living Room Contest
County Home Demonstration Clubs announce winners
in Living Improvement contest: Mrs. T. A. Harris, Class l, Mrs. E.
C. Lacy Class 2. Mrs. E. C. Lacy tells us the story of her improvement.
Fourteen years ago our home and almost everything
we had was destroyed by fire. When we rebuilt, our finances gave
out and we had to quit without any inside finish at all. The room
I am going to describe is 16x20 feet and has served as both living and
bedroom. As there were seven children. Nine of us to live in
it. We had to occupy the largest room.
Two years after the house was built, we papered
all the rooms. Did the work ourselves with very cheap paper.
So with dormer windows to leak and constant use, the room looked anything
else but inviting to live in. The paper canvas had become so rotten,
it was falling off.
I entered the living room contest in real
earnest for I really wanted a better living room. Sometimes I would
almost give up as I could not save enough from my cream checks to get the
material to fix it. Some of our cows are not giving milk and that
is what I was depending on. When the time came that I just had to
start, I went to Mr. Granberry, president of First National Bank of Celeste
and told him what I wanted and he loaned me $25.00. I took my note
for it and I am to pay him out of my cream checks. The rest of the
expense has come out of the cream checks. I had help from all the
family or I could not have done the work. They all helped so there
was no expense for the labor.
We first tore down all the paper, also the canvas
over head for it was too rotten to use. For the over head, we have
wall board put on over the ship lap and finished with finishing strips
and painted cream. The wall is papered in darker shade with flowers
tinted with silver and rose. The woodwork is finished in dark oak.
The floor is also finished around the rug in dark oak. The linoleum
rug is of tan and gray small blocks splotched with a little colors of red,
green, and blue. The rug is 12x16 feet so covers all the floor except
two feet all around. The piano and davenport bed were moved from
the front or best room. The day bed is made of the springs of an
old davenport bed with ends and legs of iron piping. The mattress
is made of an old mattress and covered with heavy drapery cloth.
The radio cabinet and writing desk combined is made of an old discard wash
stand. The chair of the writing desk is an old high back stool chair
that had a cane seat in it and ha! s served for all purposes for years
with a tin seat has a new finish of dark oak and rest of brocaded denim.
An other chair, an old rocker, that was wood and very uncomfortable has
rollers and a seat and back of brocaded denim and has to match it a foot
stool made of legs of an old stove and upholstered in same material as
chairs. The bookcase, also homemade and served fourteen years in
a coat of dark varnish, has a nice finish of mandarin red. Four new
pongee color window shades take the place of some dark green ones.
Two of them had been worn out and cut off until they just did reach half
of the window. The window draperies are green and rose linen and
are hung with curtain rods and take the place of some very cheap ones worn
out and hung with binder twine. The mirror and table, wall pockets,
baskets, pillows, and hand-painted wall banner or tapestry picture, a braided
wool rug, fuel box, and waste basket describes my living room.
Expenditures--Rug, $19.85; window shades, $4.80;
wall paper, $6.00; wall board $12.00; curtain rods, $.60; window draperies,
$7.80; mirror, $.98; end table, $1.70; making a mattress $.75; denim for
chairs and footstool, $1.00; Total: $55.88

KIEV -- Ukraine's president and prime minister reached agreement yesterday on holding early parliamentary elections in a bid to end a political standoff between the rival leaders.
The agreement is a major victory for President Viktor Yushchenko, whose April 2 decision to dissolve parliament and call early elections was a huge risk and looked in danger of backfiring as the crisis dragged on.
But although Yushchenko won the battle, the real fight for control over the next parliament still looms ahead, and all polls show pro-Western Yushchenko's parliamentary allies trailing Prime Minister Viktor Yanukovych's Russian-leaning party.
Yushchenko called the agreement "the answer that the nation was waiting for."
"I would not like for what happened today to be understood as the victory of one force over another," he said.
After emerging from talks with the president, Yanukovych went to speak to thousands of flag-waving supporters gathered on Kiev's Independence Square. "There is no other way to solve this crisis except by holding democratic and fair elections," he said.
The former Soviet republic has been mired in a political crisis since Yushchenko's decree -- a move he said was necessary to prevent Yanukovych from usurping power. Yanukovych and his majority in parliament ignored the decision, calling it unconstitutional.
As the standoff dragged on, both sides brought their supporters to the streets for major rallies, and accused each other of acting in bad faith. Yanukovych appealed to the Constitutional Court, but it moved slowly in its deliberations and Yushchenko said the 18-judge panel was not up to the task, firing two of the judges this week.
Yanukovych emerged from the meeting with the president to say a breakthrough had been made. He told thousands of his supporters at the rally that the two leaders agreed to the creation of a working group that will decide what laws need to be adopted and when the election will take place. Previously, Yushchenko had set the election date for June 24.
The bloc of former Prime Minister Yulia Tymoshenko and other pro-Western parties welcomed the agreement, as did many of Yanukovych's supporters gathered on Independence Square.
"It is correct because the longer this lasted, the worse it became," said Svetlana Piven, 40, as thousands of Yanukovych supporters began to disperse.

``I didn't feel like I knew the AHL as well as I had in the past,'' Laird said. ``I can really get a good read on the AHL this year and know what each organization has. I feel like I'm really gaining a lot of knowledge watching a guy several times as opposed to once or twice a year.''
He's also going to be watching more ECHL games, starting with Thursday's Komets' game against Kalamazoo. He wants to make sure he sees every player on NHL organizations' depth charts.
``I've been trying to make the best of the situation,'' he said. ``I'm doing a lot more driving than flying, but I'm still seeing three or four games a week, which is a light schedule for me.''
Thankfully, the hockey has been excellent. The trickle-down of the younger NHL players to the AHL and from the AHL to the ECHL has upgraded the talent level for every minor league team.
``I haven't seen a bad game yet,'' Laird said. ``Overall, at all positions, it's been upgraded. I haven't seen a weak team. The games have been really competitive for this time of year, almost like watching playoff hockey. There are jobs at stake because each team has about six guys sitting in the press box'
When told the same thing has been happening in the ECHL, Laird said, ``You have a lot of good players in this league, and what I'm seeing happening is, the players who have been at this level want to prove they can compete against the AHL guys. I think they are competing their butts off and they have raised the level of the game itself. The hockey has been really good.''
Because the Kings want the players to see the Stanley Cup rings first, Laird said he has not seen his newest piece of jewelry. That's another reason he's hoping the lockout ends soon, but he has no inside information to be discouraged about or get his hopes up.
He's just another guy going to a lot of games, wondering what's going on.Over the next few weeks, the Komets will start easing into the much more active part of their travel schedule. They are leaving Monday night to ride the sleeper bus to Gwinnett, which is a suburb of Atlanta, for two games. They'll have a normal practice on Tuesday morning before playing Wednesday and Friday.
The following week, they'll ride the bus to Detroit for a flight Dec. 5 to Orlando for three games. They'll fly home on Dec. 10 to get ready for the Dec. 12 home game against Kalamazoo, and then leave after that game to ride the bus to Reading, Pa., and Wheeling, W.V., for games Dec. 14 and 15 before riding the bus home all night for a home game against Kalamazoo on Dec. 16.
That's a rough stretch, but the rest of the schedule is a lot calmer as far as travel. They'll fly to Colorado in early February, bus to South Carolina in early March and to Elmira in late March. Everything else is a ``relatively'' short bus ride, meaning the team will leave the day of the game.Though the Komets are 32-14-2 at home in Thanksgiving games, they have not had a sellout since 1995. In fact, they have had only two crowds of more than 8,000 fans on Thanksgiving since then. … Fort Wayne has won 11 of its last 14 Thanksgiving games. … The Komets have played at home on Thanksgiving every year since 1962. … This will be only the second time the Komets have played Kalamazoo on Thanksgiving. ... Komets center Colin Chaulk has 995 career points. ... Thomas Beauregard has scored 99 ECHL all-time career (regular season and playoffs) goals in 190 career games. … defenseman Tyler Butler has scored 99 pro goals.

The text does not aim at a statistical record, but is an impartial narrative supplementing the pictures. Nothing gives so clear a conception of a person or an event as a picture. The more intelligent people of the country, North and South, desire the truth put on record, and all bitter feeling eliminated.

The failure of Zionism does not seem either inevitable or even probable to an impartial observer, writes Victor S. Yarros in an article in the current issue of the New York liberal weekly, "The Nation." Mr. Yarros, who is on the staff of the "Chicago Daily News," recently returned from a visit to Palestine.
Mr. Yarros, who agrees with Dr. Judah L. Magnes that peace in Palestine can only be established by the creation of a bi-national state there, says among other things:
"Palestine cannot mean as much to the Arab as to the Zionist Jew. The Arab has Syria, Iraq, the Nejd, the Hejaz. The Zionist has nothing save Palestine. If he can convert it into a creative source, a constant inspiration, a center of spiritual activity, Asia will be the richer for it and the more significant to the world of today.
"A firm but just position on the part of the British administration, an educational campaign in the press, open and sincere disclaimers of any design to expropriate or dispossess the Arab peasant, strictly and scientifically controlled Jewish immigration, the continued introduction of modern machinery, tools and methods by the Jewish colonists, the extension of all medical and hygienic services to the Arabs, the improvement of living standards and the upward trend in wages—these things cannot fail in time to undermine and dispel groundless Arab prejudices and fear and to effect a rapprochement between the races now poisoned by mutual antipathy. After all, the Arabs and Jews have lived together in amity for many centuries.
"One thing is clear—no nation and no government can 'give' Palestine to the Jews. That land is not on the auction block. Those who are there can not be overridden and defied, and whatever is done in the future in line with the Balfour Declaration will ultimately have to be done with the real consent of the majority."

Found these affirmations motivational & uplifting
First, there is a lot of great music on here. For the music and nature sounds alone, I think I would have gotten this audiobook, as it plays like a new age album. However, it is better than a music album, as it actually incorporates law of attraction affirmations into this soundtrack of new age music. I loved the inspiring words and found that they gave me energy as I listened to them. I am impressed and will be getting more audiobooks from this author.

By Christine Dezarn, Founder, PCOS Association (PCOSA)
Almost 7 million women in the U.S. alone have PCOS and less than half know they have the syndrome. Public information and awareness of the symptoms and the serious nature of the disorder are crucial to identifying women in need of treatment.
September is National PCOS Awareness Month and we invite you to think about how you can become an advocate for PCOS awareness this month and into the future.
As difficult as it may be for many of us to talk about PCOS, I ask you to join other PCOSA members, women with PCOS and their friends and become involved to make a difference. You could potentially help someone who is unaware that they have the syndrome. Just think how wide PCOS awareness could spread if we all took action.
We ask you to share your knowledge of PCOS with others. Our goal is to foster knowledge and sensitivity to those with the condition. Have you ever told someone about PCOS who has never heard of the syndrome before? Was their reaction shock, disbelief or confusion as to why they had never heard of this before, since it is so common?
Perhaps you have a mother, daughter, sister, or female friend who is overweight and honestly not sure why. Perhaps a female friend suffers from excess facial hair, but mistakenly assumes this is only a cosmetic problem. Tell them they can start by taking the quiz at http://www.pcosupport/quiz.php which will help them to evaluate their risks and will guide them toward "next steps" in seeking help from a doctor. Help spread the word about PCOS. You never know who may learn from us and in turn, get the help they need.
As you work toward your healthy summer achievements, think about what you can do to make sure that your overall health is your focus throughout the year. Awareness of PCOS is not about identifying with a disease, it's about recognizing the advantages to healthy living, and the impact that has to your quality of life and to your longevity.
PCOSA is now accepting donations for our PCOS Awareness Auction, to be held during the month of September. Do you have an item to donate? Can you solicit something from a local business or friend? We are looking for hotel certificates, restaurant gift certificates, spa services, handmade items, gift baskets, theme park tickets…you name it! Please contact Andrea at email@example.com for more information about donating an item or items.

Tennessee has continued its fight against a city that wants to expand municipal broadband service, arguing in a legal brief that the Federal Communications Commission can't preempt state laws that limit the rights of cities and towns to offer Internet access.
In a brief filed Friday in a federal appeals court, Tennessee argued that states have an "inviolable right to self-governance," which means that a state may delegate powers to its political subdivisions i.e. cities and towns as it sees fit. The brief was in support of the lawsuit Tennessee filed against the FCC in March, shortly after the commission voted to preempt the broadband-limiting state law.
"Far from being a simple matter of preemption, as the FCC claims, this intervention between the State and its subordinate entities is a manifest infringement on State sovereignty," Tennessee's lawyers wrote Friday.

- Case:
- Date:
- 19 June 2001
- Translated by:
- Conseil Constitutionnel
- Copyright:
- Conseil Constitutionnel
On 31 May 2001 the Constitutional Council received a referral from the Prime Minister, in accordance with Article 46 and the first paragraph of Article 61 of the Constitution, concerning the Institutional Act concerning the statute of the judiciary and the High Council of the Judiciary.
Having regard to the Constitution;
Having regard to Ordinance 58-1067 of 7 November 1958 enacting the Institutional Act on the Constitutional Council, as amended;
Having regard to Ordinance 58-1270 of 22 December 1958 enacting the Institutional Act governing the statute of the judiciary, as amended;
Having regard to Ordinance 59-2 of 2 January 1959 enacting the Institutional Act concerning Finance Acts, as amended;
Having regard to Ordinance 94-100 of 5 February 1994 relating to the High Council of the Judiciary;
Having regard to the Act of 29 July 1881 on the freedom of the press;
Having regard to the Act of 30 December 1921 bringing closer civil servants who do not serve in a department but are bound by marriage either to civil servants serving in the department or to people who reside there;
Having regard to the Code of Judicial Organisation;
Having regard to the Code of Criminal Procedure;
Having regard to Act 95-125 of 8 February 1995 relating to the organisation of the courts and to criminal, civil and administrative procedure;
Having heard the rapporteur;
On the following grounds:
1. The Institutional Act referred to the Constitutional Council consists of thirty-five sections grouped in four chapters;
2. The Institutional Act was enacted on the basis of the third paragraph of Article 64 of the Constitution and in the compliance with the rules of procedure determined by Article 46;
3. In specifying that a matter that Article 34 classifies among those to be regulated by statute is to be governed by an institutional act, the constituent authority intended to strengthen the statutory guarantees enjoyed by judges in the judicial order; the Institutional Act on the statute of the judiciary must accordingly itself determine the statutory rules applicable to judges, subject only to the possibility of leaving it for the authority empowered to make regulations to determine certain measures implementing the rules that it enacts;
4. Moreover, in the exercise of its powers, the institutional legislature must comply with constitutional rules and principles; in particular, it must respect not only the principle of the independence of the judicial authority and the rule that judges may not be removed from office by virtue of Article 64 of the Constitution, but also the principle declared by Article 6 of the Declaration of Human and Civic Rights that all citizens, being equal in the eyes of the law, "shall be equally eligible to all high offices, public positions and employments, according to their ability, and without other distinction than that of their virtues and talents"; it follows from these provisions, with regard to the recruitment of judges, that account must be taken not only of candidates" abilities, virtues and talents but also that the only abilities, virtues and talents to be taken into account are those that are relevant to the judicial function and guarantee the equality of all citizens before the law; finally, magistrates must be treated equally in their career;
55. Chapter IV entitled "provisions concerning the High Council of the Judiciary" consists of sections 33 to 35;
Regarding the organisation of elections to the High Council of the Judiciary:
56. Section 33, which amends section 3 of the Institutional Act of 5 February 1994 concerning the High Council of the Judiciary, modifies the polling techniques for the election to the High Council of the Judiciary of representatives of judges not exercising the function of President of a court; it introduces proportional representation at the two stages of the election and lays down rules to secure equal rights for candidates of both sexes; section 34 makes section 33 applicable at the time of the next election to replace the High Council of the Judiciary;
57. The fifth paragraph of Article 3 of the Constitution, as amended by Constitutional Act 99-569 of 8 July 1999, provides that "Statutes shall promote equal access by women and men to electoral mandates and elective offices", but it is clear both from the legislative history and from its position in that Article that this provision applies only to elections to political mandates and offices;
58. The rules enacted to govern the drawing up of lists of candidates for election to high offices, public positions and employments other than those of a political nature may not, with respect to the principle of equal access stated by Article 6 of the Declaration of 1789, involve any distinction between candidates on the basis of their sex; consequently, the provisions of section 33 of the Institutional Act which introduce a distinction according to the sex in the composition of the lists of candidates for election to the High Council of the Judiciary, are unconstitutional;
59. The other provisions of section 33 are severable from the foregoing provisions and do not call for criticism regarding their conformity to the Constitution;
Has decided as follows:
Article 1
The following are declared unconstitutional:
– in the third paragraph of section 33(I) of the Institutional Act concerningthe
statute of the judiciary and the High Council of the Judiciary, the words "the name of a candidate of a given sex, which must be followed on this list by the name of a candidate of the other sex within the limits of the number of names appearing on it";
– in the fourth paragraph of section 33(II), words "both sexes mustbe represented";
– in the third paragraph of section 33(III), the words "among candidatesof the same sex as the member whose position has fallen vacant".
Article 2
Subject to the foregoing reservations as to interpretation, the other provisions of the Institutional Act under review are declared constitutional.
Article 3
This decision shall be published in the Journal officiel de la République française.
Deliberated by the Constitutional Council at its sitting of 19 June 2001, attended by Mr Yves GUÉNA, President, and Mr Michel AMELLER, Mr Jean-Claude COLLIARD, Mr Olivier DUTHEILLET de LAMOTHE, Mr Pierre JOXE, Mr Pierre MAZEAUD, Ms Monique PELLETIER, Ms Dominique SCHNAPPER and Ms Simone VEIL.

ID Thief Caught on Camera: Do You Recognize Him?
FRESNO, Calif. (KMPH) —
An identity thief tries to go on a pricey shopping spree but leaves two businesses empty-handed.
Now, police have his picture, they just need to figure out who he is.
Surveillance video from Home Depot on Kings Canyon in Fresno shows the man at a cash register with a cart full of merchandise.
Police say he tried to open a credit card account and buy $1,400 worth of power tools, but something didn't add up and employees denied him credit.
Exasperated, the man throws his hands up in the air and leaves.
The next day, he tried to buy a car at the Own A Car dealership in Fresno.
But the salesman didn't believe he was telling the truth.
"He told me he's self employed, I asked him the name of company, and I asked him to spell it, he didn't know how to spell the name of his company," said Nael Sadaddean, a salesman who helped the man.
Police say, the man stole the identity of a Valley business owner.
He presented the salesman with a driver's license that had his picture on it, but the information on it was not his.
So when he tried to take out a car loan to buy a 2010 Dodge Challenger, he got caught.
"The information just did not match; the answers he was giving were the wrong answers. And there was also a fraud alert on there," said Sadaddean.
Managers called police, but the man left before police got there.
"I think those men went above and beyond what he was supposed to do, which is deny the person, that's why he left," said Ty Wood with the Clovis Police Department.
The man is described as being in his 40's, about 6 feet tall, with a goatee and tattoos on his neck and both arms.
He was last seen driving away in what looked like a gray Volkswagen Passat.
If you have any information, you're asked to call Clovis Police.

Entertainment of Wednesday, 26 December 2012
Source: enewsgh
Fashion 101 hostess Sandra Ankobiah lived the most part of her Christmas day morning as a newscaster, when she presented the news on local television network TV3, in special topsy-turvy edition.
Ankobiah, who presented the news with an outgoing Deputy Minister of Information James Agyenim Boateng, stunned viewers with her excellent presentation skills.
She however conceded that she was a bit nervous, all throughout. That is always accepted, given the fact that it was almost a virgin ambience away from the rather relaxing role of Fashion 101 presenter.
Sandra also interviewed Nigerian actress Patience Ozokwor, as part of the presentation.

Redknapp feels Van Nistelrooy could join Arsenal
Harry Redknapp insists he has no plans to bring Ruud van Nistelrooy to Tottenham - and believes the Real Madrid striker could still join Arsenal.
Van Nistelrooy, 33, has proved a success in Madrid since joining from Manchester United in 2006, but he appears to have fallen down the pecking order at the club and could be set to move on in January in search of first-team football.
Redknapp says he will not sign Van Nistelrooy as, with Peter Crouch, Robbie Keane, Jermain Defoe and Roman Pavlyuchenko already in the squad, he does not need an additional forward. Nonetheless, many believe Van Nistelrooy could return to the Premier League and, although Arsene Wenger has said he does not intend to sign him, Redknapp feels it would not be a surprise to see him at Emirates Stadium.
"He's a top player," he said. "If he's anywhere near fit, I'm sure he can still play for a while, but I've never enquired for him. He would come over here and score - he always has done.
"I can see him going somewhere like Arsenal. Tottenham is a big club. We shouldn't be afraid to compete with these clubs in the transfer market, but what would I do? I have Crouch, Keane and Defoe and Pav. If I got Van Nistelrooy, I give myself another problem."

Half a year ago I gave a talk about sacrificial sites to a Bronze Age seminar at the Stockholm County Museum. Now the contributions have appeared in a fine little volume in Swedish that can be read on-line for free or mail-ordered from the museum. Thanks, editors, for swift and accurate work!
Stockholm County in the Bronze Age, New Anthology
#1 Birger Johansson March 25, 2011
Would it be possible to restore the burial mounds to the (presumed) orignal look -with an outer shell of peat-like topsoil stacked around the stone structure [at least, that is how I was taught the originals looked like]?
— — — — — — —
A news item to drive the Americans insane with the Clovis/pre-Clovis debate:
"Paleo-Indians settled North America earlier than thought: study"
#3 Birger Johansson March 25, 2011
One question I have wondered much about is, did the northern limit for farming oscillate much, as indicated by large communal works like the cairns? The pre-pastoralism lapps were few and far between, they would not have had much manpower for hauling stone (pollen in peat bogs might help tracking domesticated plants, *if* you have the resources…). The reach of prehistorical farming in North America is probably better known than in northern Europe.
We have a big rock cairn at Ånäset*, between Umeå and Skellefteå. Are there any large cairns further north, indicating (relatively) high population density? Unlike Norway or north-west USA, this coast does not provide a cornucopia of fish, apart from salmon migration. Bronze-age Stockholm county must have been much more hospitable.
(* home of the quite strong Västerbotten cheese)
did the northern limit for farming oscillate much
Define "much". First the agricultural Funnel Beaker Culture rapidly covered Sweden up to River Dalälven. Then it backed off and much of Götaland & Svealand was taken over by the non-agricultural Pitted Ware Culture for the 500 years of the Middle Neolithic A. From the Middle Neolithic B onward it's pretty much been steady advance northwards from Scania.
