mhnatt brauchte ein neues Logo Design und hat einen Wettbewerb auf 99designs gestartet.
Aus 101 Designs von 36 Designern wurde eine Gewinner gewählt.
Looking to revise our current product logo. Only restrictions are to stay with rabbit design that holds up trophy cup. Keep the mouse as well but away from the rabbit, as we will put the product name between them. We also want the shiny/glassy/Vista/Aero look but not too overpowering. Please do not worry about the text/copy. We do not want any modifications on the text as we want the logo to also be able to stand-alone without text. THE SAMPLE TEXT SHOULD REMAIN THE SAME (as we have our own fonts and text).
Desired Style:
Aero, Wet, Glassy, Vista, Mac
Accepted File Formats:
Vector Formats (.eps, .pdf or .ai)
See our current logo here: http://www.hnatt.com/temp/logo.jpg
Here is our current logo in Adobe Illustrator format: http://hnatt.com/temp/oldlogo.zip
See an idea (JUST AN IDEA) what we are looking for here (including our past logos):
- A business logo that is professional and classy.
- Something that is similar, as this logo is very recognizable already.Â
- wet glassy look.
- Rabbit (head only) holding gold cup. Mouse separate.
- A new look.WE DO NOT WANT:
- Please do not make the logo too childish (we want a business, classy look).
- Please do not change the text/copy. We have our own text and fonts. We want to focus on the logo, not text, as it should be able to somewhat stand alone without the text.TIPS:
- If you are fluent in Meshing (using the Mesh Tool in Adobe Illustrator), you might want to try taking our existing logo (http://hnatt.com/temp/oldlogo.zip ) and making it 3D, then slightly changing some curves.Â

Even though you didn't get your hands on a webOS TouchPad, there's nothing stopping HP from providing marginal updates to their defunct platform, right?
HP has just started pushing out the latest update to the their tablet, the TouchPad. It's still webOS, although there are ways to get Android running on yours. It's a small update, it brings the usual speed improvement, performance and stability updates, and fixes some rather huge gaps in the system (that you probably never cared about). You may have noticed that puny 1.3 MP camera on the front, but that there was no way of actually using it to take pictures; well fear no more. There is now a built-in Camera app to take care of your video and picture-taking requirements. Likely, the camera attached to your phone is more suited than the TouchPad, but it's nice that HP has addressed this.
You also may have been having issues pairing your phone with the TouchPad — that's because in their infinite wisdom, HP decided to disallow non-webOS devices from connecting. Well, they've also fixed that. You can now pair any device, smart or dumb phone to your TouchPad and use it as a phone. Thanks HP, holding and talking into a 10″ screen is exactly what I want to do. Instead, HP should have added the Bluetooth DUN profile for tethering or maybe OBEX-FTP for sharing files between devices. There's no reason a modern mobile platform should be missing either of these. Shame on you, HP.
Of course some other minor additions such as OGG Vorbis support, and being able to actually toggle between offline and online while logged in to an IM service have been added.
These certainly are nice additions that most definitely make up for HP stabbing Palm in the back, abandoning webOS and shattering the dreams of many customers. Thanks for the bone, HP! Next time, do all your customers a favor and instead of shipping 2 or 3 devices with Android pre-installed, set it up for everybody and save yourself the PR nightmare.

All great photographers know how to light well. And step one of good lighting is getting your flash off the top of your DLSR, where it sits and spews gross rays onto every one of your unfortunate victims, and onto a light stand where it belongs.
But how does one make a flash work when it's not on the camera? The Phottix Odin Flash Trigger for Canon ($350) is up to the task, but that's a major understatement. The Odin isn't just another flash trigger system — it's a Cadillac of features at a Honda price.

New Mexico 4-Wheelers - 50 Years Of Trail Riding
By Joan Wolf
4Wheel Drive & Sport Utility
An early trail ride of stock vehicles to view unusual rocks near Cabezon in 1958.
It's been an exciting 50-year ride for the Albuquerque, New Mexico-based New Mexico 4-Wheelers (NM4W). Incorporated in 1958, the original club name was Albuquerque Jeep Herders. However, the club was never restricted to Jeeps, and the name, New Mexico 4-Wheelers, was adopted in 1976. Regardless of name, the club has always been committed to fun, safe, responsible, and family-oriented off-highway adventure.
Twenty people attended the first Albuquerque Jeep Herders meeting held on August 6, 1958. The newspaper notice invited "all owners of vehicles with 4WD or rough-road capabilities."
One of the first club runs was to the Mt. Taylor area of the Cibola National Forest, 70 miles west of Albuquerque. It was September 1958, and four vehicles participated: a CJ-3, CJ-5, and two Willys Station Wagons. The off-highway section was a Forest Service road that wound up the mountains through pine forests and open meadows and ended at the La Mosca Peak fire lookout (elevation 11,038 feet). Those carburetors must have been well-tuned!
In 1959, a group of 22 vehicles hauling 64 people caravaned to the Gila Cliff Dwellings near Silver City, New Mexico. According to the trip report, the group "encountered a nearly perpendicular trail on the side of Copperas Peak that had been strewn with boulders by recent rains. They also had to ford the hubcap-deep Gila River 18 times before reaching the remote cliff dwellings. The club picked up three Fort Bliss, Texas, military men who were stranded in a pickup truck on the rocky route." This route is now paved all the way to the ruins.
Looking back, it seems that people did more with less. In a 1960 outing to the Rio Salado Valley near Socorro, New Mexico, the club newsletter reported, "Dr. Homer Musgrave's Jeep fell into a hole of quicksand, and it took a number of Jeeps to get it out. The Jeep Herders also pulled a deer hunter's car out of the sand." If winches were used, it wasn't mentioned.
Fifty years is a long time for any organization to carry on. What are the secrets to longevity? Alan Gilmore, now a Colorado resident, was an active member from 1983 to 1995 and a four-wheeler before and since. He says, "The club has always been conservation-conscious. We stayed on established trails and abided by the same rules on the trail as on the highway."
That meant no drinking, no shortcuts, and no racing.
None of the 1958 charter members still belong. Pat and Sue Brady, 22-year members, are the longest-standing current members. Why has the club remained intact for 50 continuous years? Pat explains, "We're nondenominational. Pickups, Suzukis, Rubicons ... it doesn't matter. We accept everybody. And we're dynamic. We like to do lots of different things, and we change. Members have been into sand drags and hard-core rockcrawling, but trail riding, easy to hard, has been the mainstay of the club."
As with any organization, there have been ebbs and flows. In 1983, the club was running out of steam. Alan remembers, "My wife Marty and I were in our 40s and were the youngest members age-wise. The charter members were getting older and driving on dirt roads, not trails."
After scouting for more challenging trails, Alan and Marty introduced the group to "new" areas including the Caballo Mountains in southern New Mexico. The Caballo Trail, on BLM land, is rated Hard and remains a club favorite. Caballo offers big rocks, shelf roads, and the history of Palomas Gap, a notch between mountains that allowed stage coaches to travel between New Mexico and Texas.
Over the past few years, the club has been stable at 70 members/families. The club strives to retain existing members and attract new members by offering a well-rounded schedule of activities. There are trail rides at varying levels of difficulty, campouts, and participation in outside events and the political arena.
Some runs that started in 1958 became club traditions. Christmas tree-cutting runs, "aspencades" to view fall colors, and summer events in the higher elevations of New Mexico and Colorado are mainstays. More recently started traditions include a "Chic Challenge" with women-only drivers, an annual trek up Mt. Blanca in Colorado, and a large attendance at the Chile Challenge in Las Cruces, New Mexico, every February.
Community service has been an ongoing club endeavor. In the early decades, the club organized toy drives and provided Christmas trees for the New Mexico Children's Hospital. There have been work days at a day-care center, assistance with search-and-rescue efforts, and cleanups of adopted forest trails and highway miles.
Road closures on public lands have been an ongoing concern. The meeting agenda for February 16, 1960, included "speakers discussing the state land-grab situation." The club spoke out against a Cibola National Forest proposal to regulate off-road-vehicle use in January 1976. And since 2007, the group has been heavily involved with the National Forest Travel Management Rule. To show support for keeping forest roads open to motorized vehicles, members attend meetings, write letters, and document routes. Members have even taken United States Forest Service staff members on field trips to show them routes to save.
NM4W was instrumental in the formation of the Southwest Four Wheel Drive Association (SWFWDA), currently comprising clubs from six states (New Mexico, Texas, Louisiana, Kansas, Arkansas, and Missouri). In 1991, Alan took action on what had been talked about for years. He linked seven clubs to form SWFWDA. Alan says, "We needed a bigger voice to fight trail shutdowns. A regional group would wield more influence with the United Four Wheel Drive Association and the government."
A series of events are planned throughout 2008 to celebrate the 50-year milestone. The club will rerun some early trails, participate in a show 'n' shine, perform community service, and host a reunion picnic. A photo book showcasing club vehicles through the decades is being compiled by member Justin Simenson.
From early rockhounding and photography trips in stock vehicles to today's typical rockcrawling in TJs with 35-inch tires, the focus remains fun and adventure. For 50 years, club members have enjoyed and promoted fun, responsible four-wheeling.
Lauri Rector, current NM4W president, comments, "What an amazing history this club has had. To look at things that were recorded in 1958 makes me realize how long this club has sustained itself and thrived as well. I think it's due to the camaraderie of club members. We share an interest in getting out there with our vehicles and seeing what nature has to offer."

Aging in HIV
20-40 years of age or older than 50
No intervention
Detailed Description:
Advances in the treatment of chronic HIV disease over the last 20 years have resulted in
dramatic declines in morbidity and mortality. However, emerging data suggest that chronically
infected patients may be aging prematurely, and/or experience increased incidence of
age-related conditions. These phenomena are poorly understood. The overall goal of the CHAIN
project is to support the expansion of innovative research on the effects of chronic HIV
infection, co-morbidities, and aging on the central nervous system (CNS). We propose the
initiation of a clinical portion to better understand the nature of the aging process in
HIV-infected patients, with an emphasis on brain disease. This is a pilot, feasibility study
to inform the design of a larger, prospective cohort study.
We plan to enroll 20 older HIV-infected patients (more than 50 years old) and 20 younger controls (20-40 years old), matched for gender and race/ethnicity. Participants will undergo a series of tests, at one comprehensive assessment. Demographic and medical history data will be abstracted from the medical record. Each participant will undergo a medical history and physical examination, and a battery of tests designed to evaluate neuropsychological function, activity, sleep patterns, frailty, emotional well-being and sexual health. These will consist of self-administered questionnaires and neuropsychological tests, as detailed in the Methods section. Innovative measures will be included such as an activity monitor worn by participants, and a Wii balance board to assess standing balance. Participants will be asked to keep a diary and wear the activity monitoring device for one month. Plasma and serum samples will be collected on one occasion for future testing of potential biomarkers.

With the publication of the TextWord Edition of The Call of the Wild by Jack London, we continue our mission of presenting high-quality literature to high school language arts students. The Call of the Wild is a powerfully-written novel of endurance, courage, and fidelity. LondonÆs excellent use of language, his sensitivity, and his intense love of fair play make this a novel that is both enjoyable and thought-provoking.
In a world in which technology plays an ever-increasing role and in which the art of reading is fast becoming endangered, it has become more and more important to demonstrate to students that reading is still an important and valuable skill. Reading helps expand the thinking process and broadens knowledge. Perhaps most important of all, reading serves as a springboard from which to launch ideas and generate opinion.
The TextWord edition of The Call of the Wild is enriched by our unique TextWord format, offering enhanced comprehension, thought-provoking critique questions, and skill-based exercises to enhance both writing and vocabulary skills. We believe that once a student has carefully read the text of the novel and applied the TextWord format, he or she will find that the thinking and linguistic skills acquired during the process will carry over into other areas of the curriculum.
NOTE TO TEACHERS AND EDUCATORS: For information about Teacher's Edition and Test Banks, please contact us at firstname.lastname@example.com or 718-765-8940.

Farewell to Bannerman Castle

I have cut the amount of newsletters I receive down to practically nothing, but there are a few that are a treat to receive. They include high style from Balustrade and Bitters, the always entertaining and infrequent letters from Blu Dot, and the interesting updates from The National Trust for Historic Preservation. Sadly, this month they reported the loss of most of the Bannerman Castle Ruins. The castle has a "scenic ruin" designation from the New York State Office of Parks, Recreation and Historic Preservation, and now all but one wall and part of another are standing.
The silver lining of the story is that the talented photographer John Midgley shot a fantastic spread for Esquire with the castle, combined with a moody sky, providing a sublime and surreal backdrop. You can see the whole shoot here, and here's a teaser in memory of the lost tower and walls:
SIDE NOTE: I just bought my first issue of Esquire this month, because Tina Fey was on the cover, and I loved it. Now it's crossed my path again with this…I'm starting to think I should subscribe. I'm curious – ladies, do any of you subscribe to Esquire?
Another question: Besides Hearst Castle, where are other castles in the U.S.? It seems so bizarre to me – all I can think of is Lex Luthor's castle on Smallville. Yes, I'm a geek. I'm in my thirties and I watch Smallville religiously.
O.K. One last question: Do you have some favorite ruins in the U.S.? Our civilization is so young we aren't packed with the poetic ones like they are in other countries. Ruins can be so beautiful; most of the ones I can think of are industrial ruins; old brick factories overtaken by plants, dilapidated barns, even Alcatraz has beauty. I always loved the Barboursville ruins outside of Charlottesville Virginia. At one point it was the most lavish mansion in the regioin, a Palladian design by Thomas Jefferson. Sadly, the house was destroyed, but the ruins are a landmark as-is (I love the verticality of the fireplaces and the front columns):

Members of the 14th class of Kiva Fellows have officially hit their stride. While we never know where the next dispatch will come from or what interesting topics the Fellows will cover next, we always know we'll be transported, entertained, and edified. This past week, topics included "Christmas", trekking to a remote village (with video!), handling adversity (including a serious car accident and stolen electronics), and enjoying the company of loan officers, borrowers, and community members. Enjoy!
First Borrower Visit (Take 350+)
Country: South Africa / Fellow: Alexis Ditkowsky (KF14)
A Fellow's "First Borrower Visit" is a rite of passage. Alexis lists a few highlights from her first time in the field.
In Defense of "High" MFI Interest Rates: Part II
Country: Uganda / Fellow: Nila Uthayakumar (KF14)
Nila demonstrates just how expensive it is to run a microfinance organization by sharing her partner MFI's budget.
Hey, Soul Sisters!
Country: Ghana / Fellow: Mei-ing Cheok (KF14)
Mei-ing meets with her first group of borrowers in Ghana and shares their stories on the blog and on Kiva.org (click on the links at the end of her post).
Part 4: What is the industry doing to protect borrowers?
Country: Ghana, Ukraine / Fellow: Jacqueline Gunn (KF13, KF14)
Even though she's in transit between Ghana and Ukraine, Jacqueline weighs in on borrower protection in this on-going series about the state of microfinance.
A Post about Nothing
Country: Mexico / Fellow: John Farmer (KF14)
John recounts a wonderful and rewarding day in the life of a Kiva Fellow that unfortunately ended on a disappointing note.
A Month in Armenia
Country: Armenia / Fellow: Caree Edson (KF14)
While Caree's past week in Armenia has been shaped by a serious car accident, she writes beautifully about both the challenges and joys of her new home.
Video Blog: Trek to Kanaan Village
Country: Indonesia / Fellow: Lisa Skowron (KF14)
Lisa's post is a perfect visual companion to Nila's defense of "high" interest rates. Just wait for the part where a loan officer tries to drive a scooter through a river so he can (eventually) visit a client.
Next Steps for Kiva's Partner in South Africa
Country: South Africa / Fellow: Alexis Ditkowsky (KF14)
In addition to a behind-the-scenes look at Kiva's partner in South Africa, Alexis shares pictures from training loan officers and visiting new borrowers.
Lessons from my own Country – Lecciones de mi Tierra
Country: Mexico / Fellow: Lourdes Toussaint (KF13)
Lourdes reflects on the impact of poverty in her home country, the limitations and opportunities of microfinance, and the fantastic women she's met in the past few months.
Christmas in Managua
Country: Nicaragua / Fellow: Karen Gray (KF14)
What does it feel like to turn down a struggling family for a microloan? Karen paints a dispiriting yet honest picture.
The Financial Donut Hole
Country: Sierra Leone / Fellow: David McNeill (KF14)
Where do entrepreneurs go for financing if microloans are too small and bank loans are unattainable? David's conversation with a taxi driver in Freetown illustrates this conundrum perfectly.
Bolivian Kiva borrowers: buying a cow, selling food, acquiring sewing machines and constructing rooms
Country: Bolivia / Fellow: Clara Vreeken (KF14)
Clara introduces us to borrowers in Bolivia and shares the wide range of ways they're using their loans.

This is a much better title (Don't get it?? Read my MS07-040 Revised! thread).
Anyways... I learned something very interesting today (My blog post on the subject is here)
Since Server 2008 and Vista share a code base, and Server 2008 shipped at the same time as Vista SP1, Server 2008 Release is actually Server 2008 SP1 and the first service pack release for Server 2008 will be SP2 (when Vista SP2 comes out).
OS Versions:
Vista Ultimate Release: 6.0.6000 N/A Build 6000
Vista Ultimate Service Pack 1: 6.0.6001 Service Pack 1 Build 6001
Server 2008 Standard Release: 6.0.6001 Service Pack 1 Build 6001
More details
Note: I debated if this should be in MS Security Discussions or not... I put it here because the reason that it is Server 2008 SP1 is because of SDLC and Microsoft's commitment to security.

Ross High School teacher accused of misconduct with student
No charges have been filed in case
A Ross High School teacher is on leave and under investigation for misconduct.
We're not identifying the teacher at this point because no charges have been filed against him, but Ross Township police confirmed they're investigating allegations of misconduct between a teacher and a student.
A police report said a parent notified the school last month that she suspected her daughter was avoiding going to school because of a teacher's inappropriate behavior.
The parent said she believed the actions took place between the beginning of November and the end of April.
Students said they aren't sure of the details in the case, but many are standing by the teacher, whose name hasn't been released because he hasn't been charged with any crime.
Some students had even started a "Free (my teacher)" campaign, posting messages of support on social media, hanging signs in classrooms and on classroom desks.
Police say multiple agencies are investigating the allegation.
The district placed the teacher on paid administrative leave on May 1.
WLWT News 5 tried to contact the teacher to get his side of the story, but a man who answered the door at his address denied knowing anything.

Also available as 1.6 litre TDI, TSI or liquefied petroleum gas run bi-fuel.
Every journey becomes more enjoyable when you feel safe. Your Golf VI can lend a helping hand. For example with a rear view camera system, which makes sure you can see absolutely everything behind you, right down to the neighbour's dog. With the electronic stabilisation control, which keeps you on track, even in critical situations. Or with airbags at the front and on the sides, for your knees and head.
Anything can happen on the road. This is why your Volkswagen Golf VI supports you with its intelligent assistance systems: The optional adaptive chassis control DCC reacts automatically to the situation and to the road. And to you: With just the click of a button, you can decide how comfortable or sporty you want your car to be.
With your destination in sight and your favourite song in your ear, driving suddenly becomes a lot more relaxed. The multimedia equipment in your Golf VI provides you with an incredibly rich sound, as well as helping you to find your route quickly and easily. Depending on the fittings, it can be equipped with a voice command system, traffic sign recognition, touchscreen, hands-free system and DVD drive.
No trip is too short to show off your best side. With the R-Line specification packages for Trendline, Comfortline and Highline, you'll cover every distance in a more sporty and exclusive manner than ever before. This might be with a black radiator grille, with distinctive roof spoilers, or the 17 inch "Mallory" light alloy wheel rims.
Help your Golf VI make the grade with the opulent details, fine materials and select designs of the Volkswagen Exclusive fittings. How about the "Salamanca" light alloy wheels, or maybe the sporty "Bilbao" model? The result: Exactly your style.
Depending on your vehicle equipment and its operating conditions, your Golf 6 will either be given the fixed service or the flexible service upon inspection. The scope of an inspection includes all maintenance work that is necessary to keep your vehicle reliable and roadworthy. Find out here what this may comprise, in terms of electrics, the engine and gearbox, running gear and body.
As a competent partner, we're by your side when your Golf 6 requires repair work. Whether it's stone chipping, an accident or the exchange of wear-and-tear parts when they're done their time - we guarantee the best quality, years of expertise and constant mobility.
Have a listen to your Golf IV. Is it louder than normal? And what about the fuel gauge. Is it consuming more? Or has the performance reduced? If the answer is yes, you should get your exhaust system checked, and renewed if necessary, immediately at your Volkswagen Partner. We only use Genuine Parts and know exactly how every single screw should be placed.
Who in their right mind would let a couple of potholes throw them off balance? Your Golf VI certainly won't, not with the right shock absorbers. And because their wear-and-tear is barely noticeable: The best thing to do is to let us take a look every 60,000km. If needs be, we will exchange them for Volkswagen Genuine Shock Absorbers. These are fitted perfectly to match your Golf VI and join together with your assistance systems to form a real dream team.
It's a fact: With clean, pleasantly cool air coming from your air conditioning system, it's much easier to concentrate on the road. We want it to stay this way and so, as part of our Air Conditioning Service, we'll conduct a refill using Genuine Coolant, as well as checking all hoses and seals. Of course, we'll also change your interior filter too. After all, your air can never be fresh and clean enough.
The good thing about stone chips: They can be quickly repaired and are almost always covered by your insurance. But only if they have happened recently. So, to be on the safe side, come to the Glass Repairs Service straight away - and because it's urgent, there's no need to make an appointment. We'll fill the small cracks with a special resin, harden it and then sand it clean. By the time we're done, you'll be able to see the road clearly once again.
Only when the timing chain or toothed belt are running quietly and accurately is your engine running in sync: The valves open and close uniformly. The best idea is to allow us to change it for you. We tighten it, exchange the coolant pump, belt tensioner and idler roller at the same time, and align all guide tubes to a precise degree. And all of this is conducted with the suitable special equipment and our know-how as a manufacturer.
If you've come home with a trophy in the form of a dent following the battle for a parking space, we recommend the Body and Paintwork Service. We carry out rapid repairs of any small damages using Genuine Paint and Body Parts - you'll barely notice a thing and will be as safe on the road as you were before.
Your brakes can reach a temperature of up to 1000 °C. It's only natural that they wear down. Allow us to check if they are functioning correctly every time you come for a wheel change or brake check. If necessary, we'll install new Volkswagen Genuine Brakes that are the perfect fit for your Golf VI. We'll also bleed your brake fluid. That way, you won't be grasping at nothing when it comes to the crunch.
Allow us to introduce you: This is gear oil, the lesser-known sister of engine oil. It lubricates and protects the gear wheels in the gearbox, binds dirt and cools. For some 80,000 km. At that point it's time to change it, preferably with Volkswagen Genuine Gear Oil, which is the perfect partner to your gearbox. Of course, this can be done at your Volkswagen Partner.
The more you put your foot down, the more your engine works. Engine oil can help it do so. It cools the engine at temperatures of up to 2000 °C and lubricates moving parts, such as the pistons, for approximately 30,000 km. After that, allow us to change it for you. We know every last screw and only refill with Volkswagen Engine Oil. It fits to your engine like a liquid component.
In everyday life, things can be a bit hectic. You don't have time to check that no-one's putting their feet up on the seat or whether a hole has appeared in the cover. But you don't have to. We'll brighten up your fittings and fix your seats to look better than ever. Tears, scratches and so on? We'll mend them so well that you barely notice them.
Would you prefer 7,0 J x 17, ET 49, LK 112/5 or 8,5 J x 19, ET59, LK130/5 wheel rims? Even if it may seem so at first sight: Finding the right wheel rims for your Golf VI is not rocket science. The numbers tell you everything about the bolt circle, installation depth, type and screw count of a model. We'll explain exactly what this means here.
Perfectly coordinated to your Volkswagen, with the Volkswagen Parts you'll be back on the road safely and comfortably after a repair or maintenance.
Every oil has a different structure and its own components. They decide how quickly is it dispersed in the engine. Whether it can withstand temperatures of 3000 °C or only 350 °C. Which harmful substances it absorbs. Only an oil that matches you engine exactly will protect, clean and cool it properly. And the right oil for your Golf VI? You'll find it with the Volkswagen Oil Standard.

[UPDATE: $20,000 Reward] Fugitive Wanted By FBI – May Be In Montana
[UPDATE] Officials are now offering a $20,000 reward to anyone who can help find this fugitive.
Take a look at this photo - and share it with your friends. The FBI is assisting authorities in Idaho in the search for 57-year-old Mitchell Lee Walck. He is wanted for questioning after allegedly firing at an Idaho State Police trooper, fleeing the scene and later kidnapping a woman. He may be using the name Mark Mackenzie.
Walck is considered armed and dangerous, and was last seen driving the kidnapped victim's silver 2005 Subaru Forester, with Idaho license plate K230050. He had the handgun he used to fire upon the ISP officer and kidnap the victim, and he also stole two rifles from the victim's residence.
Walck has reportedly changed his appearance, shaving all but his mustache and dying it and his hair black. According to authorities he is a transient who is known to frequent churches in attempt to get food and shelter.
If the suspect is seen, please do not approach him - and call 911 immediately.

FRAMINGHAM - An investigation into a Framingham man selling heroin led to the arrest of a larger scale drug dealer on Wednesday, authorities said.
Following an investigation,�Framingham Police arrested�Geovanni Rosado, 36, and Johnny Flores, 26, on Wednesday, prosecutor Nate Burris said during the pair's Framingham District Court arraignment�Thursday.
Police initially began investigating Flores about a month ago after they received a tip that he was selling dugs out of his 640 Worcester Road apartment, Burris said.
During the probe, police arranged several controlled drug purchases using an informant. On Wednesday, police arrested Flores after they saw him�sells�drugs� on the street.
"They (the officers) told the defendant they were going to be searching his apartment for drugs, and he physically began shaking and trembling and became teary-eyed," Burris said.
Police went to�the apartment where�Flores' girlfriend told�them�she knew Flores sold drugs and�that he kept the heroin in a light fixture over the stove. There, they found 12 bags of heroin.
"The defendant said any drugs in the apartment were his," Burris said.
While speaking to the girlfriend, she offered to help police, the prosecutor said. She offered to arrange to buy heroin from Rosado, whom she said supplied Flores.
According to a police report filed in court, the woman called Rosado, known as "El Duro," (the Hard One). Officers then went to�Rosado's 16 Freeman St., apartment, and an apartment at 376 Hollis St., where he was known to often be, to put him under surveillance.
Officers followed Rosado when he left the Hollis Street apartment.�After he sold $240 worth of heroin to Flores' girlfriend, police arrested him, Burris said.
Police searched both apartments and found nothing at 16 Freeman St. In the Hollis Street apartment, police found a box hidden under a rug in a closet. In the box were two fake shaving cream cannisters, which were actually used to hide drugs. One of the cannisters contained 41.5 grams of heroin and in the other they found 22.5 grams of cocaine, Burris said.
Police charged Rosado with trafficking in heroin, trafficking in cocaine and distributing heroin. Police charged Flores with possession of heroin with�intent to distribute.
Burris asked Judge Douglas Stoddart to hold both Rosado and Flores on $50,000 bail. Although Rosado does not have a criminal record, Burris argued that Rosado faces several years in prison if convicted.
Flores, Burris said, was convicted last December of possession of heroin with� intent to distribute and is on probation and is now facing six months in jail because he had a suspended sentence. In addition, he has an open gun possession charge. Burris asked the judge to revoke the bail on the gun charge.
Also, the probation department requested that Flores be held without bail pending�a probation detainer hearing for violating the terms of his probation.
Stoddart set Rosado's bail at $14,000. The judge also set Flores' bail at $11,000, but ordered him held without bail on both the open gun charge and for the possible probation violation.
Both men are due back in court on Sept. 11 for a pretrial conference.

Framingham: Two men busted on heroin, cocaine charges

The many worlds of Pluto! (Credit: NASA/HST/SETI Institute).
By now, youve heard the news and read the tweets; Pluto has a fourth moon to accompany Charon, Nix, & Hydra. The discovery announcement came last week from a team of astronomers led by the SETI Institutes Mark Showalter utilizing the Hubble Space Telescope. The observation campaign is part of an ongoing effort to survey the environs of Pluto in anticipation of NASAs New Horizons flyby in July of 2015. Tentatively dubbed P4, the diminutive moon is in a 32 day orbit and about 8 to 21 miles in diameter, a good fit for our local Tampa Bay
Of course, the big question currently swirling around the astro-web is what astronomers will name it. Theres been chatter on such sites as Space.com, Bad Astronomy, and Lights in the Dark, but the ultimate decision will rest with the International Astronomical Union. Their rules for solar system nomenclature are pretty discriminating; its doubtful theyll that any appeals for Goofy, Vulcan, or Krypton will be entertained, no matter how cool someone thinks it might be. To be considered, a name must be mythological and have some relevance to the Pluto/Hades mythos. Not that that doesnt leave room for a mild tribute of some sort; for example, the names Nix and Hydra are a nod towards the initials of the New Horizons mission bound for Pluto, and the large moon Charon was named in 1978 by astronomer James Christy in tribute to his wife Charlene as you can see, there is some latitude for a homage to be made, if its packaged right. Of course, nothing brings out the esoteric mythological names like a new solar system object. The name we here at Astroguyz would like to propose has a good mythological pedigree as well as relevance towards honoring an astronomical pioneer. I propose we name P4 S/2011 P1 Alecto, after one of the Furies in the Roman/Greek pantheon of minor deities. The daughter of Pluto, Alecto pops up in Virgils Aeneid, Book VII Chapter 15, which states;
Alecto, woeful (in) power, from her cloudy throne among the Furies, where her heart is fed with horrid wars, wrath , vengeance, treason foul and fatal feuds…Her father Pluto loathes the creature he engendered, and with hate her hell-born sister-fiends the monster view
Wow, apparently having your kid become a Fury is a sure sign of a problem child in the making but beyond having the right mythological connections, the name Alecto scores on two more fronts; 1. Its available. Yes, there is an asteroid 465 Alekto with the old Greek spelling, but the Roman Alecto spelling has not been used to name a solar system body yet and 2. The CT initials embedded within would be a fine tribute to Clyde Tombaugh, the discoverer of Pluto in 1930 and a great telescope maker and popularizer of science Mr. Tombaugh passed in 1997 and the name Alecto would serve as a fine homage to a great American astronomer as a way to say C.T. was here!
Note: YOU can cast your very own vote for the naming of P4 (or write in one of your very own!) by clicking here!

ChiSox top Tigers, increase division lead
Chicago, IL – Alex Rios and A.J. Pierzynski hit back-to-back homers as part of a four-run sixth inning as the Chicago White Sox downed the Detroit Tigers, 6-1, in the opener of a crucial four-game set.
Gordon Beckham added a two-run shot for Chicago, which leads the Tigers by three games in the AL Central.
"This was big for us," Beckham said. "We really needed to win the first one."
Jose Quintana (6-4) fanned seven and surrendered a run on seven hits and two walks to pick up the win.
Rick Porcello (9-12) allowed four runs -- three earned -- on five hits and a walk over 5 1/3 frames for the Tigers, who have lost four straight contests.
Porcello, who had allowed just two hits over his first five frames, was touched for four runs in the sixth.
"We had a pretty good ballgame going on until I gave up the home runs," Porcello said.
DeWayne Wise reached with one out on Omar Infante's fielding error and after Paul Konerko singled to left field, Rios laced a three-run rocket into the seats in left field. Pierzynski followed with a blast to dead center field for a 4-1 White Sox advantage.
Chicago tacked on two runs in the eighth.
Alexei Ramirez poked a two-out single to right field and stole second before Beckham cracked a two-run homer to left field for a 6-1 spread.
Detroit struck first with a run in the second. Delmon Young hit a one-out single to left field, advanced to second on a wild pitch and scored on Jhonny Peralta's base hit to left field.
Game Notes
Detroit was 1-for-7 with runners in scoring position, while Chicago finished 2-for-16 ... The White Sox have won 11 of their last 14 home tilts ... Kevin Youkilis rejoined the White Sox after missing the last three games due to the birth of his son.

Taking kids out to eat at a restaurant, whether to grab a quick bite between football and soccer practice or to eat out with family, parents have seen it all before, from misbehavior to uncomfortable situations at your table and even those from the people around you.
The world's top online care provider, Care.com has compiled seven tips for turning dining experience into nice events that everyone would like to repeat! Here are three of the tips from their parenting experts.
1. Start at Home
Experts agree that sitting for meals as a family at home is wonderful practice for restaurant trips. Aim for at least once a week when you can teach meal manners during home meals. Work on, placing a napkin on your lap, eating with utensils (not hands!), talking to each other, not burping, eating with their mouth closed, and not scurrying from the table when the food is done. When your kids are used to having interesting chats during meal time in the house, it will come more naturally when eating outside the home.
2. Choose the Right Destination
"Do not dismiss the family-friendly restaurant," You might not get the farm-to-table meal you crave, but places that expect lots of kids are best for testing the dining waters. The positives: food is often served quickly, kids' cups come with covers to prevent spills and crayons and paper are usually put on the table. When kids received their own menus it makes them feel important. Allow them to choose and order their own meals (within reason) and they will feel especially grown-up. And keep the outing short. A two-hour dinner is not the place for young children.
3. Give Technology the Boot
You're glued to your BlackBerry. Your husband has an iPhone growing out of his palm. We all love our smart devices but kids and adults need to know that it's not okay to have them at the dining table. "It makes me irate to see people using phones when dining," When a child sits and eats a meal he is learning to extend himself to another person and engage in conversation." If his face is buried in an iPad, he'll miss the opportunity to connect with everybody else.

Hello there.
I want to tell you about one of the projects I've been working on behind the scenes of Suaviloquy.

We have been working together with our husbands, to form our new partnership, Vagabond Creative Society.
Our mission is to inspire people to tap into their own brand of creativity and use that creativity to life fuller, happier lives.
We have planned our next creative retreat for April of 2014.
Vagabond Creative Society presents:
The trip we are planning is going to be amazing. We have incorporated a service project this year that we are really excited about. We will also be spending a couple days on safari and meeting with the Masai people. We will have workshops and shopping and all the the fun of being on the beach.
Please check out our new website. If you are interested in joining us in April, please send an email. Registration opens today. Space is limited.

Okay so the title might be a tiny bit misleading as it's not really a room tour. More of a decorative overview? Doesn't have the same ring to it does it. But I've been pestered and pestered to show more of my bedroom after posting this Ikea Haul over on my Youtube Channel. I do think room tours are weird, the idea of showing people where I keep all my nice things and how many of those nice things I have troubles me. I always wonder why beauty guru's are burgled more. Even more so after hearing a fair few of my blogger friends have their addresses leaked online. I even noticed that people were trying to figure out where Zoella's flat is from the background of her videos. Just plain weird. But, saying that I don't mind sharing some snaps of a few corners of my bedroom!
As you can tell from these snaps of my bedroom I have a different taste than the average blogger. I think most people go for the sophisticated clean, minimal look or the super girl girl thing and my taste is kinda... eclectic? I really like bright white furniture but tons of different bits and bobs. A lot of the things I have in my bedroom I keep as they have different meanings to me at various points in my life. It's not JUST a hodgepodge of knickknacks and candles. I cant be bothered to list where everything is from but if you do have any questions about where items are from then I'll reply in the comments!
Remember to head over to my Youtube Channel to check out the Ikea Haul or you can see it above in this post.

The splits are gone and the hunt is off.
I'm a big fan of sourcing rare wheels, rebuilding then in your living room and making them work. But this time I wanted box-fresh, spanking new and untouched Once I'd gotten over that decision the rest was easy with a call to Comopomotive: I wanted these MLs custom made to the exact specification for the KP: from the PCD (finally the correct 110mm for the car) to mm perfect staggered offsets and beautifully locating centre bore.
Like a Savile Row suite they fit perfectly and, in that one-off anthracite grey, give me all the nostalgic race car look I wanted. It goes without saying they weigh almost nothing and the quality is stunning. I'm over the moon with them.
The catalyst for these new wheels? Well, at the end of last summer I passed the car to a highly recommended painter (while I was on holiday – much more fun than sanding and spraying) to re-paint the bonnet for me (after I'd been having some issues doing it myself and ran out of time) and came back to find the whole car had been resprayed….yep. That happened. With me out of the country they just went ahead and did the whole car! It's never looked so good and, as sad as it is to admit, my home job just wasn't cutting it. It looks like glass now and really pops.
I've been giving the car a thorough once-over ahead of the 2013 show season and hopefully some sunshine use: from changing the manifold gaskets to rebuilding the brakes, it's only just back on the ground for the first time in weeks!
Pic dump: I've just picked up a 50mm f1.4 and I love it!
TA22 wood grain – says 4. Has 5.
Really need to make up a nice bracket for my TRD CDI module…
Now all it needs is driving!

This is a good selection but bought mine in an Abakhan branch where they charge £2.50 for same thing. They recently increased the price from £2.24 which is over 10% increase. Similarly other remnant bags increased from £1.00 to £1.50, 50% increase. Still a bargain but huge % increases and why is the leather bag dearer than the Web price?

Book a flight to Lisbon with Qatar Airways
As the westernmost capital in Europe, Lisbon is famous for its pleasant climate, beautiful waterfront location and great historic centre.
Stepping into the maze warren of medieval streets surrouding the castle and the whole city feels like a gateway into a different era. Book a flight to Lisbon and enjoy fabulous shopping, fine dining and ornate palaces in one of Europe's most exciting capital cities.
When you book a flight to Lisbon with Qatar Airways you will travel on a Qatar Airways operated flight to either Madrid, Barcelona, London, Frankfurt or Casablanca and connect to Lisbon with our partner airlines.
Lisbon highlights
The oldest part of Lisbon is the Alfama, a network of streets below the Castelo de Sao Jorge, but the main restaurants and entertainment venues are in the upper town, or Bairro Alto.
Tourist attractions
The oldest part of Lisbon is the Alfama, a network of streets below the Castelo de Sao Jorge, but the main restaurants and entertainment venues are in the upper town, or Bairro Alto. Between the two is the lower town or Baixa, a grid of 18th century buildings built after the famous earthquake of 1755 devastated much of the city.
On your trip to Lisbon don't miss the ornate Belem Tower, symbol of Lisbon since the Age of Discovery in the 1500s, or St. George's Castle for brilliant views across the city. The Calouste Gulbenkian Museum has one of the finest private collections of art in the world, whilst the Ancient Art Museum is the equivalent of London's National Gallery.
The imposing Mosteiro dos Jeronimos was built as a tribute to the great European Age of Discovery, which was spearheaded by Portugal in the 15th century. It's an UNESCO World Heritage Site and its star features include its elaborate southern gateway and the tomb of the explorer Vasco de Gama, who made an epic voyage to India in 1498. The Oceanario de Lisboa is a magnificent modern aquarium, one of the world's largest. It's a great family attraction here and home to a bewildering array of fish and other marine fauna.
Leisure activities
The best place for a stroll during your trip to Lisbon is the Praça do Comércio, a riverfront walk packed with 18th century arcades and paved with mosaic cobbles. The square is quite spectacular. See the city up close by walking down the narrow cobbled streets of the Alfama to catch a glimpse of Lisbon's traditional character.
Pick up a Lisbon City Card to explore the city with ease and get discounts with your pass on entry to museums, galleries and other attractions. This will include a trip on the Elevador da Gloria cable car, for superb views of the city from one of its seven hills, the Miradouro de São Pedro de Alcântara.
One of the great pleasures of a visit to Lisbon is eating and drinking. The city has some legendary cafés and its many restaurants offer a great selection of the best, mouth-watering traditional Portuguese cuisine. Trendy as well as Michelin-starred restaurants can be found throughout the city, especially in the Bairro Alto district.
Try Bacalhau, a traditional salt cod dish which is eaten with cream and potatoes, or a strong and unique cheese made from cow's milk called São Jorge. Pastel de Nata is a delicious custard tart unique to Portugal and is the perfect mid-morning way to refuel, washed down with a cup of strong coffee.
If you're travelling to Lisbon primarily for shopping opportunities you've made a good decision. With their retro interiors and Rococo façades, the shops here offer a unique consumer experience. Colourful and evocative street signs advertise the names of many of the city's trades, such as button shops in the Bairro Alto district.
You can find everything from fine perfumes in the Rua da Conceição to a bewildering range of coffee beans in the heart of the Old Town. The number 28 tram has a route that passes most of the best shops in the city, on a hop on and off basis.

Snuff-made of tobacco that is ground into a powdered form and spiced with aromatic substances-was introduced to China from Japan in the late seventeenth century. Chinese elites believed that the powder had medicinal properties, and initially used cylindrical medicine bottles to hold this new "Japanese tobacco." Soon after, the Kangxi Emperor (reigned 1662 - 1722)-known for his fondness for snuff and a devoted patron of the arts-established a series of workshops in Beijing to manufacture small, high-quality objects for court use, including snuff bottles. The repertoire of bottle shapes, materials, and motifs dramatically expanded under imperial patronage, and artisans facilitated the dispensing of the tobacco by adding stoppers with attached ivory spoons.
Snuff bottle production reached aesthetic and technological heights during the reign of the Qianlong Emperor (1736 - 1795), who particularly appreciated the artfulness of the miniature containers. Members of the Qianlong court frequently exchanged the exquisite receptacles as gifts, and by the mid-nineteenth century, snuff bottles had become mandatory items of apparel for Chinese gentlemen and those who aspired to this status. The popularization of these vessels helps account for the many glass bottles produced to resemble jade, agate, quartz, lapis lazuli, and other precious materials: glass snuff bottles were less expensive and a good imitation passed all but the closest scrutiny. Chinese interest in snuff bottles as collectibles continued into the twentieth century, when delicate, inside-painted wares dominated the market.Rugged rocks and bonsai plants are important decorative elements in traditional Chinese gardens and courtyards, which captured the interest of the affluent literati in the Qing dynasty.

The Japanese yen gained strength against the dollar Tuesday, after the Group of Seven countries said that volatile currency movements could hurt the global economy.
In late Tuesday trading, the U.S. dollar dropped to 93.52 yen, down from 93.70 yen late Monday. The yen had been trading at its lowest level compared to the U.S. dollar since 2010.
In a statement, finance officials from the G-7 countries, which include the U.S. and Japan, insisted they remained committed to exchange rates driven by the market, not government or central bank policies.
Traders took the statement from the G-7 to be singling out Japan's yen, which has slumped since Prime Minister Shinzo Abe took office. Abe has vowed to fight deflation, sluggish or falling prices, that have plagued Japan for years. To trader's ears, that vow implied a weaker yen. When a country's currency weakens, prices for its imports rise and its goods look cheaper to foreign customers.
The euro also gained on the U.S. dollar, edging up to $1.3444 versus $1.3389 late Monday. When the euro strengthens against the dollar, it takes more U.S. money to buy each euro.
The dollar was little changed against the British pound, trading at $1.5652 versus $1.5660 the day before. The dollar weakened slightly against the Swiss franc, slipping to 0.9174 of a franc from 0.9200, late Monday.
The Canadian dollar strengthened slightly against the greenback, trading at CA$1.0029 for every U.S. dollar versus CA$1.0067 on Monday.

I can't help but notice all the hype since Saturday's arch rivalry games in which the Alabama Crimson Tide and the Georgia Bulldogs emerged victorious against Auburn and Georgia Tech respectively.
I want to set the record straight. I am a diehard Bama fan. Have been all my life.
My devotion to the Tide goes all the way back to the Coach Paul "Bear" Bryant years. I can remember times when Alabama would overwhelmingly destroy an opponent and the sports media would describe the loss as a fluke. A lot of that thinking had to do with their prejudice against any team from the South.
In recent years, they've scaled back some on their prejudice. Don't misunderstand me here. It's one thing for a Gator fan, a Tiger fan or a Bulldog fan to trash talk Bama. It's altogether different for some New York sportscaster to deliberately dis my boys.
What's at stake this Saturday in Atlanta is the SEC Championship and the chance to go up against the vaunted Irish of Notre Dame for the national championship on January 7, 2013.
Call it bravado, call it blind faith, but I believe with all my heart that Alabama will best the Bulldogs Saturday in the SEC Championship Game.
Georgia has two national championships to their credit. Alabama has 14. Georgia won their first national title in 1942. Their last was in 1980. Alabama's last national title was in 2011.
The Bulldogs are outmatched in rushing and kicking. Georgia was the second-most penalized team in the conference. The Tide finished their regular season with more sacks, more pass deflections and intercepted passes than the Dawgs. Alabama dominated Georgia in punt returns outgaining the Bulldogs 328-153.
Now, I want to be fair. Aaron Murray has the advantage in touchdowns, but A. J. McCarron has thrown fewer interceptions. Alabama hasn't made the mistake of making McCarron a one-man team. If Georgia expects Murray to carry the day, that would be a fatal game strategy.
I predict a crushing loss for Georgia and Alabama will advance to the BCS Championship against Notre Dame.
That's a post for another day. Meanwhile, Roll Tide Roll.

The number of damages would depend upon the type of loss caused to the aggrieved party by the breach.
INDIAN CONTRACT ACT, 1872: This act deals with the enforcement of the rights and duties on the contracting parties. The aim of this act is to ensure that the rights and obligations which are arising out of the contract are fulfilled and non-fulfillment of which provides remedies to those who are aggrieved party by the guilty party. A promise which is made by contracting party to another party shall be legally binding. Law of contract offers personal rights and imposes a personal obligation. The object of a contract must be lawful in order to get the remedy later. The contract often represents a tool that a company uses to safeguard their resources.

I ❤ 0X0 is an interactive artwork, game, musical fancy and experiment in conductive Velcro. I created it to test the usefulness of conductive Velcro. I wanted to make something that was both interactive and interesting to the user. After much pondering a simple interactive game of noughts and crosses seemed like something viable and I could aim for.
As far as I could tell from searching online, not much had been documented on conductive Velcro and it's uses. I found one project credited to AnaLou where it had been used as a toggle switch for LEDs (light emitting diodes) on a hat.
So I wanted to create something interactive, as I could find no other documentation for conductive Velcro, some sort of plaything seemed an interesting idea and after some pondering I decided that the 3 x 3 grid system used for a simple game of noughts and crosses would be something that would be both limited and simple in terms scale, i.e. a maximum number conductivity points and a square grid that would be easy to contain.
My schematic design for this artwork has 9 tracks of conductive thread stitches that lead back to nine digital LilyPad Arduino pins. There are 22 pins on the LilyPad Arduino 12 of which are digital I/O so having nine tracks of conductive thread was not a problem. I decided on a stylised heart shape for the design and placement of components, as I wanted the artwork to be attractive. I also chose the LilyPad arduino components and sewing of conductive thread to all be visible and designed to be part of the aesthetic of the artwork, so that the user is reminded that this is an electronic artwork.
At this stage I wrote the basic bones of the underlying code, as a 'sketch' in the Arduino integrated development environment (IDE).
Considerable thought went into devising how to connect the objects that would become the physical noughts and crosses. I would need a way of discerning noughts and crosses physically as well as in the code, so decided the 3 x3 grid for each placed nought or cross would be made up of three rails of connected conductive Velcro. The noughts and crosses would have two corresponding rails of fuzzy Velcro on their undersides, but would join to two differing rails on the grid.
After making a first set of noughts and crosses and connecting their underside Velcro rails with conductive thread, testing revealed that they cross-connected the rails in a bad way, which meant an effective circuit was created where none existed in the empty parts of the grid where no object was placed. After much testing and thinking about how to right this problem, crocodile clips and diodes showed it was necessary to implement a diode in each of the objects to push the current in one direction. This setback cost the project over a week in time as new noughts and crosses were made from scratch.
With the new noughts and crosses made and working okay on the conductive Velcro rails it was time to revisit the code. The project needed some music to play when a game was won, so I chose two old classics – can you guess what they are? A tune was also needed to signify a stalemate situation in the game and I chose ' The Death March', which harks back to early arcade games where it was often played alongside a 'game over' message. The music was transposed into simple notes that could be played by the LilyPad Arduino buzzer and then entered into the code as frequencies.
It was rather difficult and frustrating to get the tempo and notes to the music to play on the buzzer convincingly, so I sought the help of hacker Ciaran Anscomb to transpose the three pieces of music I had chosen for this project and write a bespoke music routine for me. This took quite a bit time and code experimentation, but I am happy with how it has turned out.
With the hardware and code running as expected and reasonably confident that all the conductive thread tracks and respective knots were all working properly and not touching each other or fraying, I finally tidied up the artwork by backing it onto some coloured fabric and embellishing with star sequins, which also acted as a way of securely sewing the two fabrics to each other. One of the risks of just sewing around the edge of the heart to join the backing to the front fabric, is that when the noughts and crosses are lifted off the grid after each game, the fabric might become stretched or torn from the pulling off from the Velcro rails.

TSU to Open Season Versus Bethune-Cookman in JMC
On Sunday, Big Blue takes on Bethune-Cookman for the 15th annual John Merritt Classic at 7 p.m. at LP Field.
The Tigers return 18 starters from last year's 8-3 team including 11 on the defensive side of the ball.
However, the team's biggest question mark will be at quarterback where freshman Ronald Butler will make his first start of his career. Butler won the job this fall when he beat out senior Holt Claiborne and JUCO transfer Lamar McKnight.
The good news for Butler is that he will have the luxury of throwing to junior tight end A.C. Leonard who is a preseason All-American by a handful of publications. Last year, Leonard led all OVC tight ends and underclassmen in receiving yards (733). He also hauled in six touchdown passes as a sophomore.
The squad will also break in a new starting running back Trabis Ward left the program at the conclusion of last season. Ward lead the conference in rushing attempts (309) yards (1,422) and touchdowns (15) in 2012. Matching Ward's production might be difficult for one player to do, so the team will likely turn to both Telvin Hooks and Adam Davenport to carry the load. Hooks rushed 75 times last year for 425 yards for an astounding 5.7 yards per carry average. 2013 will be Davenport's first year at Tennessee State after transferring from the Naval Academy.
On defense, the Tennessee State will return all 11 starters from a defensive squad that led the OVC in total defense in 2012 (361 y/pg). Second Team All-OVC selection Nick Thrasher will once again captain the defense from the middle linebacker position, a year removed from leading the squad with 105 stops and 9.0 tackles for loss.
The secondary is highlighted by First Team All-OVC cornerback Stephen Godbolt III and Second Team selection safety Daniel Fitzpatrick who combined for 106 tackles and seven interceptions- six by Godbolt. Even with retuning all 11 starters, the Tigers' defense still only has seven seniors listed on the two-deep depth chart.
The Tigers' opponent in the JMC will be the defending MEAC Champions and preseason No. 1 ranked HBCU team, Bethune-Cookman. The Wildcats finished 9-3 last season including a 21-14 loss to TSU in Daytona Beach.
B-CU returns 13 starters from 2012 including its leading rusher, passer, receiver and tackler.
Isidore Jackson will enter his senior season as the Wildcat's go-to-guy on the ground, a year removed from rushing for 1,069 yards on 191 attempts for a 5.6 average. Jackson was also the leader in all-purpose yards (1,217) and scoring (72 points).
Handing Jackson the ball will be junior Quentin Williams who rushed for 635 yards, himself, in B-CU's spread offense. Williams's main duty last season was to throw the ball and he performed well, tossing 11 scores compared to just two interceptions. Eddie Poole was on the receiving end on most of Williams's passes, leading the team in receptions (32), yards (439), and touchdowns (5).
On defense, Jarkevis Fields will return after compiling 103 tackles from the linebacker position a year ago.
TSU will hope to improve to 11-4 in JMC games and 7-1 against B-CU when the teams kick off the 2013 season at 7 p.m.

Michael Jackson's eldest son testified Wednesday that during rehearsals for Jackson's anticipated "This Is It" comeback tour, his father told him, "They're going to kill me, they're going to kill me.'"
Prince Jackson said his father seemed generally pleased when he returned home from rehearsals but wished he had more time to practice before the upcoming concerts.
He testified his father would sometimes get upset after receiving phone calls from AEG Live Chief Executive Randy Phillips, or Tohme Tohme, his sometime manager.
"He would get off the phone, he would cry sometimes," Prince Jackson said.
He testified at one point, Phillips aggressively grabbed Jackson's elbow during a conversation. He said that incident took place either June 23 or 24 in 2009. Jackson died June 25.
The testimony came in the ongoing wrongful death case in which Jackson's children and mother contend AEG, which was promoting and financing the tour, pushed the pop singer relentlessly as the tour date approached.
Prince Jackson also recounted his memories of the day his father died.
He testified he was on the first floor of their rented Holmby Hills mansion when he heard screaming upstairs. When he ran to the kitchen to see what was doing on, he said he saw Dr. Conrad Murray run back up to the second floor.
Kai Chase, the family's chef, told him Murray wanted him upstairs.
When he got to the bedroom, he said he saw his father lying half off the bed, his eyes rolled back in his head. He said Murray was giving his father CPR.
He said he recalled his sister Paris was screaming, calling for her "daddy."
Prince said he followed the paramedics to Ronald Reagan UCLA Medical Center and learned of his father's death when Murray announced, "Sorry kids. Dad's dead."
He said Murray told them Jackson had died of a heart attack.
"We just cried," the performer's son said.
Prince Jackson is the first family member to testify in the trial, which is nearing the two-month mark.

Sophia Grace Belts Out a Snippet of Ariana Grande's 'Problem' [VIDEO]by Karen Lanza | PopCrush
Yes, it reached No. 2 on the charts and went double platinum in the U.S., but this is how Ariana Grande knows her single 'Problem' is a really huge hit: pint-sized Sophia Grace Brownlee covered it!
Yes, the more vocal half of the adorable 'Ellen DeGeneres Show' standouts Sophia Grace and Rosie gives Ari's summer anthem a try in a new video posted to her YouTube channel.
In the clip, the 11-year-old Brit is caught belting out a few seconds of the tune while she sits on the floor, peeks at her phone and works on a bracelet. The mini multi-tasker seems oblivious to the camera creeping around the corner and looks up a bit stunned when the its operator says her name. She smiles and also stops singing, which is unfortunate because we'd love to hear her sing the rest of the track!
We've already heard her crush songs from 'Frozen' and hits by many artists, including Nicki Minaj and Adele, but her vocal prowess here is still amazing. And, surprisingly, because the video is in black and white, we don't see her wearing her usual pink. And there's not a princess crown in sight!
