Lotte Takes Two of Three From SK
The Giants are playing through injuries, but have managed to stay near the top of the standings.
INCHEON, South Korea - The Lotte Giants took two of three games this week against SK, to move them back into second place in the KBO standings.
The Giants won the opener 5-1 thanks to Park Jong-yoon's eighth homer of the season. Lee Yong-hoon (6-2) got back on track after a few miserable performances to win his sixth game of the year, pitching six innings while giving up seven hits and striking out five.
Lee Sang-hwa (0-1) got the nod on Wednesday, but only lasted 3 1/3 innings as Lotte fell 3-1. Kim Ju-chan went 3-4 at the plate as the Giants only managed seven hits.
Son Ah-seop's seventh inning two run homer capped a four run inning, as Lotte eased past SK 7-2 in the finale. Shane Youman (5-2) allowed only four hits in 7 1/3 innings and struck out six in another dominant performance. He also lowered his team leading ERA to 2.43.

ALLEN, Texas — The Breast Center at Presbyterian Hospital of Allen plans to offer free mammograms to uninsured women in Collin County, thanks to funding from the North Texas Affiliate of Susan G. Komen for the Cure.
A recent $26,000 grant from the organization will allow Presbyterian Hospital of Allen (PHA) to provide breast health education and self-examination instruction, computerized breast cancer risk assessments and 100 digital screening mammograms to eligible women during the next year. A part of PHA's "Better Breast Health" initiative, the program is designed to reach out to women in the community who cannot afford the evaluations, are uninsured or underinsured, and/or are members of historically underserved populations.
"The goal of Presbyterian Hospital of Allen's Better Breast Health program is to bring breast health education and screening to underserved populations, including the growing African-American and Hispanic populations in Collin County," said Barbara Quast, R.N., and PHA's women's health service line and education director. "Community outreach efforts will be targeted at providing early breast cancer detection and prevention, and breast health education and information."
According to the American Cancer Society, breast cancer is the most commonly diagnosed cancer and the leading cause of cancer death among Hispanic women. In addition, low screening participation rates translate into Hispanic women often being diagnosed at a more advanced stage, resulting in higher mortality rates.
Similarly, breast cancer is the most common cancer among African-American women, with an estimated 19,000 new cases diagnosed last year. While breast cancer deaths for white and African-American women were equal during the 1980s, that changed during 2002 and 2003, with African-American women experiencing a 36 percent higher death rate than white women.
"Such factors as lack of insurance, low participation in screenings and barriers related to language in the case of Hispanics often result in these underserved populations not utilizing screening services," said Quast. "We hope this grant will help us extend our reach further into the community and overcome some of these impediments."
Women can access PHA's Breast Center upon referral from a doctor or a group such as the Komen organization, or on their own. Quast also will be contacting community groups, faith-based organizations and businesses in the area to help get the word out.
In addition to no-cost mammograms, program participants each will receive a personal computerized breast cancer risk profile. The assessment determines risk by obtaining answers to a series of questions concerning family history, reproductive history and biopsy history. Participants receive screening guidelines; those at high-risk are given information and referrals for managing their risk.
PHA's Breast Center is open six days a week, offering appointments on Saturdays for women who aren't able to visit the center during the week. In addition, a bilingual employee is on staff to assist non-English speaking patients.
The grant is the first for PHA's Breast Center, which occupies a large comprehensive facility in the hospital's Medical Office Building II and includes a recently opened Women's Shoppe offering items that relate to women's health.
"It is crucial to us as health care providers in Collin County to better educate women regarding early detection and treatment, if necessary, of breast cancer," said PHA President Sheila McKinney. "We are grateful to the North Texas Affiliate of Susan G. Komen for the Cure for providing us the opportunity to expand the Better Breast Health education program, as well as provide screening for women who may not have been reached before."

Division II school with great support, facilities are new including football stadium and more is planned, school spirit and fan support is awesome.
A lot of students play sports!
Sports are very important at Alderson Broaddus. More then half of the students on campus play some sport. If you play a sport and they like you and give you a scholarship it means they are interested and will invest time in you.
Since A-B is such a small school, everyone is involved and everyone is friends with everyone. We are all supportive of one another. The teams are new, so they aren't the greatest, but in coming years, I think they will win more often!
A-B has added a lot of new sports programs recently including Men's Volleyball, Men/Women Lacrosse. Few more programs are gonna start sometime next year. This gives a lot of incoming students opportunities campus wide.

written by Delos W. Lovelace
conceived by Edgar Wallace and Marian C. Cooper
originally published in December 1932
reviewed copy published by Tempo Books,
a subsidiary of Grosset and Dunlap, in 1976
with illustrations by Richard Powers
the novelization of King Kong is available in innumerable editions through Amazon and other booksellers.
King Kong is here reviewed as part of MOSS' May-long Hairy Beasts celebration. Be sure to check out our contribution from earlier in the month – the El Santo saga Santo vs. Las Lobas courtesy of Denis' weekly The Horror!? column.
Something of an anomaly from a time in which the movie tie-in wasn't nearly so ubiquitous a phenomena (a difficult past to imagine now that even hollow Hollywood extravaganzas like Battleship are granted novelizations), Delos W. Lovelace's brisk prose adaptation of the quintessential monster fantasy is, if nothing else, proof positive of the great lengths to which producers Cooper, Schoedsack and Selznick went to familiarize the public with their epic Depression-era production. Lovelace's King Kong, originally published in late 1932 (well in advance of the film's March '33 premiere), wasn't the great ape's only contemporary foray into print media either, but while the abbreviated two-part adaptation serialized by Mystery Magazine in February-March of 1933 is now all but forgotten Lovelace's Kong lives on, having been reprinted time and again, typically in timely association with the latest big screen Kong adventure. Case in point is the copy reviewed here, a mass-market paperback scale-down of the hardcover The Illustrated King Kong from Grosset and Dunlap, originally published to coincide with mega-producer Dino De Laurentiis' unsatisfying 1976 iteration.
While I picked up my copy of the Lovelace Kong longer ago than I can remember, to the best of my knowledge this marks the first time I've actually read the thing. That's not to say I haven't been tempted, but having never been without a copy of the film on video (be it VHS, Laserdisc, DVD, or Blu-ray) that temptation was always tempered by the fact that it was just darned easier to watch Kong than read him, even with the big-print of the paperback scarcely filling two hundred pages. And then there was the persistent question – just how much can a Kong book possibly have to offer when the film is so indelible, so familiar?
And indeed, the narrative of Lovelace's Kong is as familiar as one might expect, deviating little from the screenplay that serves as its foundation. The tale begins with adventurer and filmmaker Carl Denham stalking about downtown Manhattan on a desperate hunt for a pretty (and unrepresented) face for his latest production, a mysterious bit of documentary-fiction whose South Seas subject Denham keeps a closely guarded secret. He finds that face in the beautiful Ann Darrow, a down-on-her-luck performer he rescues from hunger (and certain arrest) after he sees her snatching an apple from a street vendor's stand. After feeding her, clothing her, and assuring her of his honest intentions ("No funny business!"), Denham whisks Ann off to the tramp freighter Wanderer and sets off, with dependable Captain Englehorn, handsome first mate Jack Driscoll, and three times the ship's usual crew, for an uncharted speck of land far west of Sumatra…
With rare exception Lovelace's Kong emulates its cinematic equivalent to a prosaic T in so far as its human drama is concerned. Sure, Ann and Jack's "I guess I love you" romance is moved ahead in the schedule (and up from the deck to the crow's nest for good measure) and ethnic stereotype Charlie (the Wanderer's Chinese cook in the film) is now a more politically correct old codger named Lumpy*, but substantive differences are few and far between. Ann Darrow makes screaming screen tests while Denham rattles on about Beauties and Beasts ("I'm going right into a theme song here!") until the Wanderer encroaches upon a mysterious fog bank and Denham's elusive shooting location is finally revealed – Skull Mountain Island**, a rocky outcrop covered in dense tropical foliage and whose only populated area is cut off from the rest by an immense and ancient wall. The fair-haired Ann inevitably catches the eye of the Island's native populace, who were in the midst of an ancient sacrificial rite at the time of the Wanderer's arrival. They eventually kidnap the unsuspecting beauty with the intention of making her the latest offering to their prehistoric god – a new bride for the mighty Kong.
It is in the story's comparatively dull buildup to its fantastic adventure across Skull Mountain Island that Lovelace's Kong shows its weaknesses most. Part of the trouble obviously lies in the familiarity of the drama, but the greater problem rests with Lovelace's prose itself – this is where the briskness of the novel becomes a bit of a distraction. Technically speaking there is nothing at all wrong with Lovelace's writing, but all the grammatical proficiency in the world can't make up for the fact that it's such slight, barren stuff. The film relies (and beautifully so) on the artifices of its medium, the performances, the photography, the score, the fantastical set and effects design, to build atmosphere and evoke emotion in the viewer. Lovelace finds no literary substitutes for the same, and the novel Kong, bereft of all but the sparest of descriptions and characterizations, suffers greatly for it.
That said, Lovelace's word-pinching ways aren't enough keep the story's most attractive element – its lengthy diversion into the prehistoric jungles of Skull Mountain Island – from being anything less than enjoyable. Indeed, this is where those already familiar with the film (are any of you not?) will find the most to love.
As with the earlier drama, the majority of the Wanderer crew's death-defying trek through the hostile territory beyond the wall is by the book (or film, as it were), with the sailors menaced not just by the furious Kong, but by the uncharacteristically aggressive advances of two of the Island's herbivores – a Stegosaurus and Brontosaurus respectively. The major difference arrives at the end of the Brontosaurus attack, after one unfortunate straggler is chased up a tree by the brute, at which point the crew reaches the edges of a tar pit and catches sight of a trio of Triceratops, themselves in pursuit of Kong. The great ape holds his own, bashing in one of the beasts' heads with a massive slab of slate, but the Wanderer's intrepid adventurers don't fare so well when the remaining pair turn their frustrations towards more defenseless prey. Only a single sailor falls victim to the expected violence – being crushed beneath one of the monsters and eventually gored. The rest are chased towards an enormous ravine-spanning log, and lost cinema history.
Produced, but cut from the film prior to release for whatever reason, the long lost Spider Pit Sequence has become the Holy Grail for fans of monster cinema – and it's alive and well, if a bit dulled by the paucity of verbiage, in Lovelace's Kong. With a charging Triceratops at one end of the log and the enraged Kong at the other, the crew of the Wanderer find themselves with no escape but into the dark recesses of a primordial hell below:
"Two of the men lost their holds. One grasped madly at the face of a prone comrade and left bloody finger marks as he went whirling down into the decaying silt at the bottom. He had no more than struck when the lizard flashed upon him. [...] The second man did not die in the fall. He was not even unconscious. He landed feet first, sinking immediately to his waistline in the mud, and screamed horribly as not one but half a dozen of the great spiders swarmed over him."
The horror of the spiders over and done with, Lovelace's Kong returns once more to the familiar. Driscoll and Denham survive the onslaught, though on opposite sides of the ravine. While Denham heads back to the wall for help from the Wanderer's surviving crew Driscoll silently stalks Kong, witnessing his battles against various Jurassic-age monstrosities on the way to his lair high on Skull Mountain. Aside from a particularly romantic retelling of Driscoll and Ann's harrowing escape from Kong's clutches (arguably the most successful part of Lovelace's novelization, and in welcome possession of the sort of emotional hooks that are in such scant supply elsewhere) the rest of the novel Kong plays in the predicted fashion, albeit less the tragic undertones that make the film's final moments so unforgettable.
If it sounds as though I'm being too harsh towards Lovelace, I really don't intend to be. I have no qualms with his style of writing in and of itself, and there are plenty of bloated modern efforts that would do well to take his frugal sense to heart. It just never works well enough with the material in question to make it anything but ordinary, and as such Lovelace's Kong never excels beyond the low expectations these film-to-book adaptations typically command. Ultimately this is far more interesting as an artifact of early tie-in marketing than as literature, and unless you're one of those obsessed with all things Kong (I'll admit I'm guilty, at least so far as the '33 film is concerned) there's very little to recommend here.

I wasn't sure what to expect with this novel, but with a southern religious protagonist I knew I needed to read it to see how the author handled this and I am glad I did. I was a little hesitant at first as the last two book I read from this publisher, 50 Shades of Gay and The Hunger Gays weren't amazing, but this one was excellent. I received a copy of this book from Riverdale Avenue Books and this is my honest opinion and I received nothing in return.
Playing by the Book is the story of Jake Powell and his journey from Preacher's Kid (PK) in small-town Alabama to an elite summer journalism program at Columbia University in New York City. This is the first time he's away from home and needless to say it is the experience of a lifetime. Not only is this a coming out story, it is a true coming of age story. Many young adult novels over emphasis one or the other, but this novel intricately tied the two together.

ALERT: Dome Restoration Project Necessitates Rotunda Closure April 12 through April 28.Click here for more information.
The Senate gained new prominence in the 1830s as a result of its battle with President Andrew Jackson. Jackson's veto of an act to renew the charter of the Bank of the United States angered many members of Congress. When the President refused to comply with a Senate request for important documents related to bank operations, the Senate censured, or formally rebuked, him for assuming powers that he did not have under the Constitution. Jackson angrily rebuffed the Senate and dismissed its censure. Three years later, when Jackson's Democratic Party regained control of the Senate, the new majority voted to strike, or delete, the censure from the Senate Journal. Behind this debate lay a fierce struggle for power between Congress and the President over which branch would take the lead in shaping national policy.
In this cartoon, Henry Clay "censures" President Andrew Jackson by sewing his mouth shut.
Prints and Photographs Division, Library of Congress
An opposition party cartoonist portrayed President Andrew Jackson as "King Andrew," trampling on the Constitution as he wielded his veto power.
The 1837 repeal of Andrew Jackson's censure was effected by making two entries into the Senate Journal of 1834: the box drawn around the original motion and the date the censure was stricken from the record.
Records of the U.S. Senate, National Archives and Records Administration, Washington, D.C.
Soon after President Andrew Jackson refused to renew the charter of the Bank of the United States in 1832, money was in short supply. In protest, citizens minted one-cent coins known as "Hard Times Tokens." Issued from 1832 to 1844, the tokens often depicted barbs against Jackson and his followers.
Smithsonian Institution, National Museum of American History, Behring Center
After President Andrew Jackson refused to renew its charter, the Bank of the United States' status as a federal institution expired in 1836. This bank note from 1840 comes from the period when the bank continued as a private institution.

Here, on the quiet side of Cabo, you'll be treated to romantic accommodations, plus cruise, spa, and snorkel discounts.
The Destination
Teetering on the edge of the Baja Peninsula, where the waters of the Sea of Cortez meet the Pacific, Los Cabos is advantageously placed amid world-class ocean views. While the white-sand beaches are protected by the imposing jagged rocks of Land's End—which beckon lounge-chair visitors to try adventurous boat rides near their edges—inland, artisan markets sell colorful mementos. Bob from water sport to water sport by day; once the sun sets, scads of neon clubs and energetic bars await.
The Digs
While some parts of Los Cabos host round-the-clock parties, others are decidedly more tranquil. Marbella Suites en la Playa, halfway between Cabo San Lucas and San Jose del Cabo, is one such place. "It's a treat to discover little Marbella Suites," says Fodor's, "which still retains the flavor of the peaceful and romantic East Cape properties," and is just 25 minutes from the nearest airport.
Its air-conditioned rooms all have cool tile floors and kitchenettes. Beyond the accommodations, the hotel boasts a beach-level pool and two hot tubs, as well as an on-site spa and fitness center. At mealtime, visit beachfront La Terraza restaurant, where dishes are prepared with fresh, locally sourced ingredients—you'll taste the difference in your first bite of guacamole. Luna Bar, located off the lobby, serves local artisan beers, like Diablo Blanco and Broken Board, in addition to standard drinks.
The Diversions
• The Spa at Marbella Suites
• Cabo Adventures
• La Princesa Charters
• El Arco de Cabo San Lucas (Land's End)

VoIP Technician: Answering the Call of the Network
Believe it or not, there's a technology-related job role that has been around for more than a hundred years. What is it, you might ask?
When the telephone appeared on the scene in the late 19th century, the world witnessed the birth of the voice technician, said Mary Ng, senior manager of the Unified Communications Portfolio at Cisco.
Today, that role is a little more diversified thanks to the emergence of Voice over Internet Protocol (VoIP). The Federal Communications Commission (FCC) defines VoIP, also known as IP telephony, as technology that enables voice calls to be made using a broadband Internet connection instead of a regular analog line.
"Voice over IP is still a very hot market — particularly in emerging markets," Ng said.
Voice technicians primarily are responsible for installing and testing VoIP networks, meaning they need in-depth understanding of how they work.
Ng maintains that there are two specific entry-points into the profession. The first is through working with traditional analog phones or TDM (time division multiplexing) of technology.
"[Typically, this job role is suited for] somebody who begins with a help-desk kind of function and realizes they really like the voice technician or the voice role [because they] typically like to work with people," Ng said. "Voice is unlike wireless or some of the other specialty skills because you deal with people constantly."
The second way to get into VoIP is by working the IT or datacom angle.
"From the datacom side, it's [not uncommon…

NCAA Player Blogs: Notre Dame's bus ride after Penn State and freshman Karaoke
Sean Burns - 2/25/2009
IL's Player Blog roll continues with another entry from Notre Dame's Ryan Hoff and Duncan Swezey. Remember that SIDs and college players interested in doing a blog are welcome to email us at email@example.com.
South Bend to Penn State. On a bus. With 45+ guys. That was the traveling arrangement when we played Penn State this weekend at University Park. It had the potential to be horrifying. But somehow we managed to make the long trip there, and the long trip back a very rewarding and fun experience. Winning definitely helped, that's for sure. A long bus ride home in a losing effort would have been brutal, but we were able to pull out the W for the second week in a row against a quality opponent in Penn State.
We play Penn State annually and it's always an exciting, up-and-down fast-paced game; and this weekends' matchup was no different. There is always one other constant, and that is tremendous goaltending. This game featured that for sure, as Drew Adams from Penn State recorded 16 saves, and the big man between the pipes, Scotty Rodgers, stopped an amazing 20. It seemed like only perfect shots were going in on Sunday because of their play, which always makes the game extremely intense and exhilarating.
We took an early lead and never lost it, but Penn State stayed close and battled back a few times throughout the game. Thanks to a great defensive effort led by Regis McDermott and Mike (Creigh Dawg) Creighton; and an amazing offensive performance by the "Southern Sensation" Neal Hicks (4,3) and "The Gremlin" Grant Krebs (2,1), we were able to close them out with a 13 to 8 win.
You are all probably asking how we entertained ourselves on the long bus ride to and from PSU. Well that is where creativity and imagination came into play. Of course we watched movies for part of the trip and devoured some Chipotle burritos (Coach Byrne's favorite), but movies can get boring after a few in a row. So once the movies got boring, we turned to the freshman.
In recent years, we have created the "Hot Seat" based off of ESPN's "Budweiser Hot Seat." The set-up is simple. One by one, we bring a freshman to the back of the bus and ask them to sit in the "Hot Seat." If they choose to participate then they must answer any question that an upperclassman asks with complete honesty, and hopefully a little exaggeration. The questions are usually embarrassing, a little inappropriate, and more often than not- absolutely hilarious. And many times the answers are even more so.
We were able to go through 7 rookies: Kevin Randall, Ben Ashenburg, Eric Keppeler, Nick Beattie, Max Pfeifer, Connor Greissing, and transfer Ryan Alexander. Although most of the questions and answers remain confidential, we can share a little insight into the "Hot Seat." The second to last question was a Dan Gibson creation that basically sets up a scenario in which the freshmen see the perfect girl while out with friends. Then, they were given 20 seconds to come up with the pick-up line that they would use in order to win her over. As expected, we received mostly horrible lines, some funny lines and some inappropriate lines. But all in all, we determined that our freshmen are doomed in the "ladies" category.
The last question asked the freshmen to come up with nicknames for themselves that would be used for the next 4 years. It was interesting to hear the terrible ideas of nicknames that these young guns invented on the spot. These included Randaddy, Beetle, Stache, Awesome, Coco and White Magic. We really couldn't believe that "Awesome" was the best that someone could create on the spot, but that's the pressure of the "Hot Seat." It'll get you every time.
On the way back from Penn State, things got a little stranger. After watching "Step Brothers," we proposed to Coach Corrigan a creative idea we learned from the Women's Lacrosse team at Notre Dame.
On all the buses we travel on there is a microphone at the front so that the driver can communicate to the back of the bus. So, what we did was set up the perfect karaoke battle using that microphone. The only difference from regular karaoke was that they use an iPod with headphones, so we can hear no music background and only their singing. That also means the performers can't hear how off pitch their voice is and can only hear the music blasting in their ears.
This, obviously, allowed for some of the best entertainment in 4 years of Notre Dame Lacrosse. The songs that the freshman sang included Taylor Swift's "Love Story," Sir Mix-a-lot's "Baby got Back," Estelle's "American Boy," Spice Girl's "Wannabe," Aladdin's "A Whole New World," Elton John's "Tiny Dancer," Bonnie Tyler's "Total Eclipse of the Heart," and Sugarhill Gang's "Rapper's Delight." There was also a dreadful duet performance of Grease's "Summer Lovin" by Nick Beattie and Eric Keppeler.
But the winner of the contest was freshman midfielder Max Pfeifer. The Pfeifman produced pure gold on the "stage." He not only sang "I Will Survive" with great conviction and incredible range, but he majestically danced as he did it. His reward: Exemption from bus clean-up.
The blog's very own Duncan Swezey (DJ Jazzy Swizzle) performed during the karaoke battle as well. At intermission he performed Rabbit's Final Battle from "8 mile." And to close out the show Jazzy Swizzle got the bus into a frenzy with "Gimme the Loot" by Notorious B.I.G.
The rest of the ride included watching "The Dark Knight," playing trivial pursuit, and the bus driver randomly blasting Queen's Greatest Hits as we got close to South Bend. We think he was as happy for the ride to be over as we were.
Next week is our first home game against Dartmouth. We play at home in the Loftus Sports Center. We are excited to play Dartmouth and have our first home game of the year. Keep commenting, and giving suggestions.
Both of us were in a media special studies class in which we were able to make a video of any kind. We both created Notre Dame Lacrosse highlight videos compiling highlights from the past few seasons. Duncan was also interviewed for und.com's "20 Questions" segment. The links are below. Enjoy.

20 Questions with Duncan Swezey (ND Athletics)
Rookie Performance of the Week
Max Pfeifer. Your singing of "I will Survive" by Gloria Gaynor (who knew?) was inspiring. Your dancing moves at the front of the bus were even more so. There was actually a moment when you came out of a spin move and pointed at Coach Corrigan while singing "Kept thinking I could never live without you by my side." Gutsy and stirring are a few words that come to mind when thinking of your performance. You deserved that exemption from cleaning the bus.
Blog Mentionables
Scotty Rodgers turned 22 this week. For his celebration, he turned down two free meals at really classy restaurants in order to dine at Hooters with a few teammates. This, naturally, ended in Scotty riding a "pony" (actually a broomstick) around the tables as the Hooters girls sang Happy Birthday.
Although Max Pfiefer ran away with the best rookie performance by singing and dancing to "I will survive," he also managed to come up with the worst nickname ever. All he could think of was the name "Awesome." That is not awesome, Max. Luckily your dancing was.
Sophomore defender Kevin Ridgway performed a terrific version of "Dracula's Lament" from Forgetting Sarah Marshall during our freshman karaoke battle. (In case you don't know the song, click here for the MP3)
One of ND Lacrosse's biggest fans was able to make it out to the game this weekend. We promised him a shout out. MURPH, we appreciate the support.

A man accused of robbing a Rice County bank, then firing at a Kansas Highway Patrol trooper will go to trial.
Jason Gleason was in court for a preliminary hearing Thursday. In court, prosecutors showed the dash cam video of how the standoff ended. You can see the suspect run out of a vehicle and then you hear dozens of gun shots. There's also video of the troopers getting kids out of the suspect's car.
Warning: The video does contain foul language
Authorties say, before the shootout with troopers, Gleason robbed a bank in the town of Chase early in the day. They say, Gleason robbed a bank in Rice County, threatened workers with a gun, and took off in a car with an unknown amount of cash.
Prosecutors focused only on the events in Saline county, they say Gleason's girlfriend Chrystal Bell picked him up in Hutchinson on her way to Wichita. She was driving an Explorer with her children inside. She said that Gleason asked Bell to head towards Topeka. She testified Gleason had a gun on his lap while riding in the Explorer, but didn't specifically threaten her or her children.
They ended up in Saline County where troopers tried to stop the vehicle. After a chase down Assaria road, Gleason ran from the car and began shooting. The bullet hit the glass of a patrol car and trooper Ryan Woltin was sprayed with the shattered glass.
Bell also testified about the bullet that hit her. "I felt something hit me in my back and I reached back and when I put it in front of me it was covered in blood. And about the same time my son started screaming and when I turned around his face was covered in blood," Bell said.
Another bullet, believed to be fired by Gleason also hit her son. A KBI officer testified that her son believed it went through his mouth, outside his mouth and into his mother's back. Belle's son put his two sisters on the ground so they wouldn't get hit. A trooper at the scene says the kids were scared to death.
After hearing the testimony, the judge ruled there was enough evidence to hold Gleason over for trial. Gleason's charged with one count of attempted first degree murder, four counts of attempted second degree murder, two counts of aggravated kidnapping, two counts of kidnapping and two counts of criminal discharge into an occupied vehicle.

The Golden Bears have put themselves back into consideration for the NCAA tournament. A top-four finish in the Pac-12 and first-round bye in the conference tournament that comes with it is now a viable goal. Even the regular-season title, unthinkable a month ago, could be back in play.
That is, if Cal can get past what sets up to be a rather obvious a trap game against USC on Sunday evening at Haas Pavilion (7 p.m., Fox Sports Net), considering the potential for a let-down after building that momentum.
But simply dismissing the surging Trojans, holders of the longest active winning-streak in the conference at four games, with that label would be a mistake.
Both USC and Cal are 7-5 in conference play, with the winner set to move into a fourth-place tie with Arizona State, playing the best they have all season.
But while Cal (15-9) has gotten back on track with improved effort and defensive play, USC (12-13) has done so with a more-relaxed approach and freewheeling offense since Bob Cantu was named the interim head coach on Jan. 14.
Free of the yoke of former head coach Kevin O'Neill, USC is scoring an average of 71.1 points in the eight games since his dismissal. Junior guard J.T. Terrell, who barely played under O'Neill and did not see action in Cal's 72-64 win at Galen Center on Jan. 5, has deliver double-digit scoring in all but one game under Cantu.
"Bob's gone in and said, 'When you're open, shoot it.' They seemed to have thrived on that," Cal head coach Mike Montgomery said Thursday.
With that approach has come a string of close contests, as only two games in the Cantu era have been decided by more than five points. USC improved to 4-2 in such circumstances with its 65-64 win at Stanford on Thursday.
Cal had no such worries in its last game, pouring it on the Bruins early and coasting to 76-63 win, but USC's revival is a reminder that now is not the time to fall back into bad habits.
"We have to play hard," Montgomery said.
"We got to go into every game and take it as seriously," said guard Allen Crabbe, who is averaging 21.3 points per game on 25-of-49 shooting in three games against the Los Angeles schools this season. "We feel as a team we are unstoppable."
Having earned the right to think that way, Cal now has to continue to prove it. That means avoiding a setback, obvious or not.

A hurricane is a tropical cyclone in which winds reach sustained speeds of 74 miles per hour (category 1) or more and blow in a large spiral around a relatively calm center (the "eye"). Hurricanes produce damage and destruction from heavy rainfalls, winds, and flooding.
In Maine, hurricanes don't happen often but they can be devastating when they do. Recent storms that had impact on Maine are: Carol and Edna in 1954, Donna in 1960, Gloria in 1985, and Bob in 1991.
One of the most common disaster preparation mistakes is that people do not prepare while the sun is shining. When disaster is approaching everyone is after the same resources and they quickly become scarce. Lines are long, traffic is bad, and tempers are short. Start now to put together your disaster supply kit. If you have children involve them in the game of finding items on your list. Prepare now, it'll take less time.
Some hurricane preparedness considerations:

Whether you've found your potential nanny through an agency, a friend's enthusiastic referral, or an online community like Care.com, it's important to conduct a critical part of the hiring process—the interview. A nanny often works as a live-in care provider or is hired on a long-term basis; a comprehensive interview will help you determine if she's the right nanny for your family.
Before you meet your potential nanny, conduct a preliminary phone interview. Be aware that it is very difficult to make a judgment about someone based solely on a phone call. Ask about her certifications, availability, and child care background. Outline the general requirements of the job, and ask if she's interested in the position. If so, invite her to your home to conduct an in-person interview.
To prepare for the interview, write a list of questions that address the nanny's certifications, skills, and experience. Ask about her hobbies, interests, pet peeves, and whether she follows a particular child care method or philosophy. Be sure to giver her the opportunity to interview you too. The nanny-family relationship can be very involved and information must flow in both directions.
An alternative to having this first meeting at your home is to invite your potential nanny to meet you at a local coffee shop or park. It's a less stressful way to meet a new person. Also, it gives you the added benefit of being on neutral territory before you decide whether or not to invite this person to your home. Don't forget, if this is a smart nanny, she's probably thinking the same thing. If the meeting goes well, then invite her to your home to meet the children.

Is there an app that you could make that would allow me to turn off bluetooth/wifi etc based on certain times? Example, I do not need bluetooth or wifi while i am at work, but would love bluetooth to turn on at 5pm, and wifi at 6pm. 5pm being when i leave work and get into car and 6pm being when i walk in door at home. Same with time I leave no need for services to be running when I do not need them and i forget to turn them off.
Does anything out there exist? I know the G1 has something called locale that does by gps but I think they incorporated for time now.

This is a fraction of a review of The Dark Knight Rises. It is the no-spoilers version of a piece I want to write this week. But for the time being, priority is given to members of the audience trying to decide what to do now that another Christopher Nolan Batman film is playing keep-away with the public attention span.
Sure, you loved The Dark Knight, but how well do you remember Batman Begins? Do you remember much of Liam Neeson's involvement?[1] The zig-zag narrative structure? If the first thing that came to mind when you thought of Christopher Nolan's Batman movies is Heath Ledger's The Joker, there's a chance you should refresh yourself on Begins before you go see Rises. I know, I'm giving you homework, I'm a horrible person. But trust me, it will prove useful. And if you don't want to spend that much time, here's the wikipedia plot summary.
The plot of Rises is equally influenced by both movies that came before it. I found this unusual for a comic book movie, because typically third films aren't written to bookend and finish a series, even if they should have been. Maybe the fact that all the films are tightly connected helped Rises avoid The Curse of The Threequel (see Spider-Man, X-Men, Godfather). But with great reference to previous films comes great responsibility not to heavily rely on expository dialogue. This, is probably the biggest problem with the movie. When the dialogue starts to get too jammed together, a problem mostly found in the first hour of the film, the movie threatens to lose the audience's focus and attentions.
Thankfully, with Morgan Freeman reprising the role of Lucius Fox, the Q. to Batman's Bond, the action scenes are outfitted with some wonderful new toys that will have audiences ooh's and ahh's. I'm impressed by how much has been left out of the trailers, how much surprise was left for the audiences.
Tom Hardy is Bane
Heath Ledger's frighteningly manic Joker was a wondrous anomaly – not a fluke – but impossible to replicate. In comparison, Tom Hardy's Bane is much more controlled, and restrained experience. It's not until Bane has his first fight scene, that audiences unfamiliar with the character from the comics learn to fear the big lug. Looking at the rogues gallery that Bale's Batman has survived, though, the progression is logical. The only threat to a Batman who beat that Joker is a villain who is bigger, stronger, and faster. Bane serves a purpose to the film, but doesn't hold attention in the same way. Not that I expected him to. Also, his jacket is crazy distracting and not fitting of his pseudo-99%er talk at all.
The other new entrants to the ensemble of this Batman trilogy – Anne Hathaway, Joseph Gordon-Levitt, and Marion Cotillard – all give good performances, though declining in that order, and most are overshadowed by Christian Bale giving his best performance of the series, probably knowing he has to carry this movie.
Despite the issues the movie has, I enjoyed Rises quite a lot, and I recommend seeing it. If you're wondering whether or not to see the film in IMAX, there's an interesting problem that anecdotal evidence has complicated for me. Thanks to Nolan's penchant for shooting scenes on cameras made explicitly for the IMAX screen, the movie is a beauty on a legitimate IMAX screen, but hearing it, though, is another story. As the trailers have demonstrated, Bane speaks through a mask that's even worse for his voice than whatever Bruce Wayne does to his own voice when he dons the cape and cowl.
When I saw it in IMAX, it was at times a strain to understand what Bane was saying. A friend in Maine who saw the film at a normal theater understood him clearly throughout, and seemed to be more positive about Bane's dialogue than I was. I'm probably going to see the film at a standard theater this week to put to test a theory that the soundsystem in an IMAX theater gives off too much bass, or the IMAX recording equipment picked up too much static noise, for the film's own good.
The running time of the series has grown by 12 minutes with each movie, for what it's worth, from 2 hours 20 minutes, to 2 hours 32 minutes, to 2 hours 44 minutes. Maybe this is unintentional by Nolan, but his film teaches that detectives aren't supposed to believe in coincidences. I'm just of the opinion that directors are supposed to believe in editing. Now all that's left is for audiences to prepare for one very big film. A very big film that tried to do a whole hell of a lot in too little time for their goals, but already more time than many may find fitting.
I'll be back later this week to pick at nits and sweat the small stuff.
[1] Yes, Liam Neeson existed prior to TAKEN.
This was two movies. One cast by the studio, starring three attractive and arguably passable leads, and another put together by Oliver Stone starring John Travolta, Benicio Del Toro, Demian Bichir, and Salma Hayek – all killing it with wonderful over-acting.
Combined, these two films are sloppily run together, and ruined with horrible voice-over narration from Blake Lively.

Sending limits
To keep our systems healthy and your accounts safe, Google Apps limits the amount of mail a user can send. The limits restrict the number of messages sent per day and the number of recipients per message. After reaching one of these limits, a user cannot send new messages but can still access his or her account and receive incoming email.
The following peak limits apply to Google Apps for Business or Education editions and users in trial domains:
|Limit type
|Business/ Education editions
|Trial users
|Messages per day
|Daily sending limit*
|Messages auto-forwarded
|Messages automatically forwarded from another account; not included in the daily sending limit
|Auto-forward mail filters
|Account filters that automatically forward mail
|Recipients per message
|Addresses in the To, Cc, and Bcc fields of a single email*
|2000 (500 external)
|2000 (500 external)
|Recipients per message (sent via SMTP by POP or IMAP users)
|Addresses in the To, Cc, and Bcc fields of a single email*
|Total recipients per day
|Individual addresses count in every mail sent; 5 emails sent to 10 addresses count as 50 recipients*
|External recipients per day
|Email addresses outside your primary domain, including domain aliases and alternate domains
|Unique recipients per day
|Individual addresses count once a day; 5 emails sent to 10 addresses count as 10 unique recipients*
|3000 (2000 external)
|3000 (500 external)
*applies to both internal and external recipients
The value of these limits may change without notice in order to protect Google's infrastructure. Limits per day are applied over a rolling 24-hour period (rather than a set time of day).
After upgrading to Google Apps for Business, it may take some time for the limits of your Google Apps accounts to be updated:
- If your domain has six or more users, the peak limits will be eligible for update after the first complete billing cycle.
- If your domain has fewer than six users, the peak limits might be lower for multiple billing cycles. The peak limits will be eligible for update after the domain has been cumulatively billed for the equivalent of six monthly user subscriptions.
If your organization uses the SMTP relay service setting to route outgoing mail through Google then the sending limits are different. You can find more information about the sending limits for the SMTP relay service here.
The restriction on sending new mail typically lasts for one hour, but can last as long as 24 hours. A user can access and use the account normally after this period, at which time the sending limits are automatically reset.
- In mail delegation, the sending limits of the delegator are applied to messages sent.
- When sending mail from a different address, the original account's message limits are applied.
- Accounts that are detected as sending spam may be restricted from sending email. See Google's Spam and abuse policy.
If you need to send an unusually large amount of mail, such as for a marketing campaign, consider an alternative to regular email, such as:
- Google Groups for Business. Distribute messages to many email addresses using a single address. For example, administrators can use Groups to contact all users in their organization by adding everyone in the domain to an email list. For any Groups-related issues, please refer to Google Groups limits.
- Google Apps Marketplace. Download compatible applications. (Marketplace solutions are created by 3rd party developers for a general audience. Google does not offer technical support for Marketplace Apps.) Here are results for "email marketing."
- Google App Engine for Mail. (For developers) Increase mail limits by building a customized application.
- If you have a local mail server, you can send to the recipients directly and avoid the sending limits. This local server should also be added to your SPF record to stop the messages from being marked as spam.
- If email recipients report messages as spam, review our bulk sending guidelines and best practices to ensure that all the recipients are willing to receive the emails. You may also want to check email settings for any incorrectly configured forwarding rules or filters causing these messages to go out.

Ooookay. Now I've really got it. Thanks for making more sense than anyone else on this subject. This whole HD disk/sound upgrade is confusing and putting more people off than it's making fans out of.

Drive down my midtown Omaha street and you will see competing symbols in a culture war. In one yard stands a "Defend Marriage" sign. Across the street sits a car bearing the yellow equal sign for gay rights.
You might think the opposing views on Webster Street are just another example of our political polarization — of people taking radically different positions on issues and digging in.
But according to Colin Woodard's take on where Omaha sits, this is a symbol of the city's ability to straddle two political worlds. The Maine writer, whose redrawn map of the United States is attracting attention, sees Omaha as being part of a broader swing region stretching from Kearney to Philadelphia.
Think of us as a geographic and philosophical buffer between the Yankee and Dixie extremes.
He calls us by a familiar name: "The Midlands."
He ascribes to us these somewhat familiar characteristics: big on the middle class, not so big on ideological purity; want our government organized enough to help ordinary citizens, not so top-down organized we're told what to do.
We are pluralistic. Collectively, we are capable of holding two opposing thoughts, as we do on Webster Street, without going to war over them. When it comes to presidential politics, we are in high demand.
We owe our world view to our roots, says Woodard, and here the English Quakers who settled Pennsylvania and the German farmers who fled feudal land arrangements before the American Revolution get a lot of credit.
The Quakers' belief "in the inner light of man," he says, makes us more accepting of people who think differently. The Germans' skepticism about the role of government intervention makes us resistant to top-down structure.
If you want to test this theory, look at how we do things in Omaha. We are a Republican mayor and a Democratic-majority City Council. We are concealed-carry permits and legal protections for gays and transgender people. We are a 2nd Congressional District that went blue for Obama in 2008 but still elects Republican Lee Terry cycle after cycle.
We are also the reason Lee Terry has to eke out his wins with, I'm guessing, an ulcer or two. This makes us share more in common with places as far-flung as the City of Brotherly Love than our reliably Republican neighbors to the west, such as North Platte.
Woodard, a reporter for the Portland Press Herald and author of four books, took his pencil and drew a fat line down the middle of the Cornhusker State, splitting east from west.
He blew up the rest of the U.S. map, for that matter, grouping areas according to their linguistic, cultural and political habits.
What results is a far more nuanced portrait of America than you ever get from the talking heads. So forget what you think you know about red America and blue America.
Erase state boundary lines.
Picture instead 11 distinct "nations" with names like Yankeedom, Tidewater and El Norte.
Woodard's book on this subject, called "American Nations: A History of the Eleven Rival Regional Cultures of North America," came out in 2011.
He drew from that for a recent article published in the Tufts University alumni magazine to explain why America has such high rates of violence compared with other industrialized nations. He looks at assault, the death penalty and mass shootings through the lens of our various worldviews. He explains why gun control might go nowhere given the vast differences between the two most polarized nations: Yankeedom and the Deep South.
Yet he holds hope for how gun control — or any issue on which we're deadlocked — could go somewhere if we understood each other and our differences better and if either entrenched side could make its case for the middle.
The thesis of his work centers on the idea of a "dominant culture" formed hundreds of years ago by the first settlers. This culture has basically stuck, Woodard says, and in some ways is growing more entrenched as people move to places that reinforce their politics.
The culture shapes attitudes about everything from guns to gays and, to a degree, prescribes voting behavior.
Woodard's notion of nations isn't entirely new; other scholars have mapped our national fissures along cultural and historical lines. Some of it boils down to "Duck Dynasty" versus "Mad Men." America is one big mess of different places and ideas, and state boundary lines don't neatly define that.
Journalist Dante Chinni, who wrote a book called "Our Patchwork Nation," has produced an even more detailed national self-portrait, defining U.S. counties into 15 different subtypes.
It helps explain why, as my colleague Matthew Hansen wrote recently, conservative eastern Coloradans want to secede from a state they view as increasingly liberal.
It helps explain why, when I lived in Louisiana, natives described that boot as if it were two shoes: North Louisiana, also known as East Texas, and South Louisiana, also known as Cajun Country. The accent, the churches, the food and the people were that different.
Woodard is quick to say that an area's dominant culture doesn't stamp out minority voices. You can have a large minority of blue voters in the reddest of red states and red voters in the bluest of blue states. But the culture that dominates, like it or not, does shape the debate.
I ran this by two local political scientists who, true to form as pluralistic Midlanders, offered differing reactions.
Paul Landow, who teaches urban politics at the University of Nebraska at Omaha, said the United States is not 11 nations, it's two: urban and rural. He rejected the notion that our roots played such a dominant role.
But Kevin Smith of the University of Nebraska-Lincoln said settlers' values, instituted through churches, schools and government, can leave a lasting imprint.
"When I lived in Wisconsin, I thought of myself as a moderate Republican," Smith said. "When I moved to Nebraska, I was a wild-eyed, left-leaning Democrat."
His own politics hadn't changed. Just the dominant culture.
Under the Woodard paradigm, this makes sense. Wisconsin belongs to the left-leaning Yankeedom, which is more comfortable with government regulation and social projects. Nebraska is divided between the Midlands, with its wariness about government, and the Far West, where government may not be trusted at all.
When it comes to our individual views, you can drive down any street in America and find people on opposite poles.
The difference in Omaha, it seems, is that we accept that, work with that and come out somewhere in the Great American Middle.
