Cleveland Browns head coach Pat Shurmur said "Colt McCoy knows how to win games". And that's exactly what the second year quarterback did in leading the Browns to a 17-16 win over the Miami Dolphins Sunday afternoon at Browns Stadium.
McCoy led the Browns on a two-minute drive that led to the game-winning touchdown. McCoy hit wide receiver Mohammed Massaquoi with a leaping grab in along the sidelines from 14 yards to tie the score at 16. Phil Dawson added the extra point to give the Browns a one-point lead.
Miami had a chance in the final 43 seconds. Thanks to two Browns penalties, the Dolphins took over at the Cleveland 47. Chad Henne misfired on three passes. His fourth down throw to Brandon Marshall was picked off by Browns safety Mike Adams to end the threat.
After the game, Shurmur was asked if he had any words for McCoy before the final drive. Shurmur told the quarterback. "Get in the end zone. Get us in the end zone".
The Browns began the drive on their own 20 with 3:23 to go. McCoy hit five straight passes to get the offense to the Miami 43 yard line. Passes to Benjamin Watson and Montario Hardesty got the Browns to the Miami 27. Then, a costly offside on Miami on a third and 10 gave the Browns another chance. A pass to Evan Moore gave the Browns a first down at the 14 setting up Massaquoi's heroics.
After the game, Shurmur said 'what I was proudest of is when it wasn't pretty, and at times it was very ugly, they hung in there and competed. Because you don't know. I'm excited for those guys in that locker room because we have two victories in week three".
Miami got on the scoreboard in the first quarter. Following an interception of a Colt McCoy pass by Jimmy Wilson at the Browns 43 yard line, the Dolphins began a four-play drive that got them into the end zone. Danny Thomas took a screen pass from quarterback Chad Henne and went into the end zone untouched to give Miami a 7-0 lead.
The Browns got their first touchdown in the second quarter. On a first down play from the Miami 33, Colt McCoy rolled out of the pocket and found Josh Cribbs in the right corner of the end zone. The pass was a little high, but Cribbs went up and got it over Miami cornerback Sean Smith for the touchdown. That tied the game at 7.
The Dolphins completed the first half scoring with 30 seconds to go in the second quarter. Dan Carpenter completed an 11-play 75-yard drive with a 23-yard field goal. That allowed Miami to go into the locker room with a 10-7 lead.
Cleveland got the offense going on the opening drive in the second half. In seven plays, the Browns moved from their 20 yard line to the Miami 12. But, the drive stalled out. Phil Dawson came on to boot a 30-yard field goal to tie the game at 10.
Miami added field goals from Carpenter of 41 and 38 yards to give the Dolphins a 16-10 lead.
The Browns are back at Cleveland Browns Stadium next Sunday to take on the Tennessee Titans.

It was the "Jack Snowball Show" at Art Wright Stadium Friday night as the Wadsworth Grizzlies defeated the Revere Minutemen 42-0.
Snowball had a hand in the first four touchdowns scored by the Grizzlies. The senior tailback ran for three touchdowns and passed for a fourth on a halfback option.
"We knew we had to have a good week this week", said Wadsworth head coach Greg Dennison. "And we did".
Wadsworth improved their record to 5-0 on the season, 2-0 in the Suburban League. Revere is still looking for their first win. The Minutemen, dealing with al kinds of injuries, are 0-5 overall and 0-2 in the Suburban League.
Snowball got Wadsworth on the scoreboard in the first quarter. The Grizzlies took possession at their own 42 yard line following a punt. Snowball showed off his passing arm as he took a pitch from quarterback Jon Kuss. Snowball pulled up on the sweep and found Mitch Gordon on a crossing pattern at the 20 yard line. Gordon shook off a tackler and went into the end zone for a 7-0 lead.
Dennison was impressed with Snowball's passing arm. "Jack can do a little bit of everything. Gordon wasn't real open, he had to lay it in there and he did".
Following a three-and-out by the Minutemen, Wadsworth was at it again. An 11-play, 50-yard drive ended with Snowball scoring on fourth down from two yards out. Snowball carried the ball on seven of the eleven plays. The extra point by Luis Escudero made it 14-0 Wadsworth.
On their next possession, Snowball took the handoff from Kuss on an off-tackle play. The tailback turned the play up the field and ran past Revere safety Justin Bergh for as 73-yard touchdown run. The extra point made it 21-0.
The Wadsworth defense forced a third-straight three-and-out and took possession at the Revere 40. Snowball carries the ball three times in the five-play drive including the last four for his third touchdown of the quarter for a 28-0 Wadsworth lead.
In the first half, Snowball carried the ball 13 times for 139 yards and had 42 yards in passing.
"My running comes down to the line. It really does. Everything goes through them. They blocked that 73 yard run to perfection".
Wadsworth completed the four touchdown outburst in the second quarter with 10 seconds remaining in the first half on a 14-yard touchdown pass from Kuss to junior tight end Nick Seme.
Wadsworth erased all doubt about the outcome on the first series of downs in the third quarter. With Snowball on the sidelines, the Grizzlies went 75 yards in 11 plays for their sixth touchdown of the game. Jon Kuss on a quarterback sweep went 32 yards for a touchdown to make it 42-0.
The only thing Snowball wasn't successful with last night was being voted Homecoming King. "I don't want to talk about it" Snowball said with a smile.

Freshman Braxton Miller will start when Ohio State hosts Colorado on Saturday.
The decision was announced by interim coach Luke Fickell on Thursday on his weekly radio call-in show heard on 1590 WAKR.
Fifth-year senior Joe Bauserman had started the first three games for the Buckeyes (2-1), but the passing game __ with Bausermanand Miller splitting time __ suffered in Saturday night's 24-6 loss at Miami. They combined to hit just 4 of 18 passes for 35 yards with an interception (by Miller), with all four completions going to running backs.
Fickell said he hoped the change might energize the offense. He said he felt Miller could handle the pressure, and that his running ability would be a big asset.
You'll be able to hear Saturday's Ohio State-Colorado game on 1590 WAKR beginning at 3:30 pm.

St. Vincent-St. Mary is putting their 4-0 record on the line tonight when they play the Archbishop Hoban Knights at InfoCision Stadium.
It's anticipated that between 10,000 and 12,000 fans are expected to attend the rivalry game.
St. Vincent-St. Mary head coach Dan Boarman says even though Hoban has an 0-4 record, it will be a tough game between the two rivals.
Hoban says the development of his offensive line is allowing his skill position players the ability to get free and score points.
You'll be able to hear tonight's game between St. Vincent-St. Mary and Hoban at 7 o'clock on 1590 WAKR.
To open Mid-American Conference play, The University of Akron volleyball team mounted a thrilling comeback after dropping the first two sets to Buffalo, but the Zips (3-11, 0-1 MAC) came up just short in the final frame to lose 3-2 (19-25, 17-25, 28-26, 25-19, 10-15). With the win, the Bulls improve to 8-6 overall and 1-0 in the league.
The first two sets were controlled by UB, as the Bulls hit .378 and .310, respectively, while Akron's offense sputtered. In a tight third set that featured 15 tie scores, the Zips turned it around and found a way to win after fighting off match point, down 24-22, and pulled off a 28-26 victory to send it to a fourth set.
UA used its momentum to race out to an 11-3 lead to take charge of the set, but Buffalo climbed all the way back to get within three at 22-19. Akron answered by slamming the door with three straight points to even the match and send it to the fifth.
The final set was tied at 9-9 until the Bulls took two points in a row and gained the upper hand. UA countered with a kill to make it 11-10, but the comeback ended there, as UB notched four consecutive kills to claim the match.
Senior Courtney Jarvis led the Zips with 15 kills on the night and also added 11 digs. Sophomore Alex Cocklin reached double figures with 11 kills, and freshman Mary Delich chipped in eight kills and two block assists. Back in the lineup at setter, Morgan Kuhn tallied 38 assists, two kills, nine digs, two block assists and a pair of service aces for a strong all-around performance. Starting libero Jill Paluch finished with 17 digs, while Christina Furda added 12.
The Zips return to the JAR on Saturday, Sept. 24, against Ball State. The match begins at 5 p.m. and will be Youth Day, where kids in attendance will be able to make signs to support the team.
The Cleveland Indians will pay tribute Saturday night to radio broadcaster Mike Hegan prior to the second game of the Doubleheader against the Minnesota Twins.
Hegan, who is celebrating his 50th anniversary in professional baseball, will begin a transition following this season from his full-time broadcasting duties. He will continue to impact the Indians organization by joining the Indians Alumni Ambassador program, serving as a resource for Indians broadcasting, community and business initiatives.
The son of former Indians great Jim Hegan, Mike grew up in Cleveland and starred at St. Ignatius High School in both football and baseball. He spent a year on scholarship for both sports at Holy Cross before signing with the New York Yankees in 1961. His career, which began in 1962, was highlighted by 12 seasons in the Major Leagues, including an American League All-Star selection in 1969 and as a member of the 1972 World Champion Oakland Athletics.
When his playing career came to an end following the summer of 1977, he immediately moved into the Milwaukee Brewers TV booth as an analyst where he spent the next 11 seasons. In 1989, he moved back home to Cleveland and has spent the past 23 seasons broadcasting Indians baseball, both in the TV and Radio booths.
He was recently nominated along with Herb Score for the 2012 Ford C. Frick award for excellence in Major League Baseball broadcasting. Fans can take part in online voting for the award until 5PM ET on September 30 at the National Baseball Hall of Fame's Facebook page (www.facebook.com/baseballhall). A 20-member electorate will vote this fall on the final 10-name ballot to determine the 2012 recipient.
St. Vincent-St. Mary has a young man who is a star on both the soccer field and the gridiron. To show you how well known Antonio Manfut and the Fighting Irish Boys Soccer team is, LeBron James was in the stands to see him on the pitch Thursday night against Medina.
Fighting Irish head soccer coach John Stavros said he feels very fortunate to have Antonio on the team, even though he has to share him with the football team.
Manfut says he can remember back to when he was 6 and 7 years old when he was playing on two youth soccer teams.
Antonio Manfut and STVM Head Boys Soccer Coach John Stavros, the subject of this week's Local Loop report by Jeff Brewer.
Asdrubal Cabrera drove in five runs and Jeanmar Gomez won his fifth straight start for Cleveland as the Indians beat the Chicago White Sox 11-2 on Thursday night to remain in second place in the AL Central.
Gomez (5-2) gave up one earned run and four hits over six innings. Since being recalled from Triple-A Columbus on Aug. 30, the right-hander is 5-0 with a 1.80 ERA.
Cabrera hit a three-run homer and tied his career-high for RBIs. Kosuke Fukudome added three RBIs and Travis Hafner singled for his 1,000th career hit as Cleveland moved 1.5 games ahead of the White Sox.
Fukudome's two-out, two-run single off Philip Humber (9-9) in the fifth inning broke a 2-2 tie.
Fukudome and Jason Kipnis hit back-to-back home runs to lead off the first inning. That's the first time in 40-years that the Tribe started the game with back-to-back home runs. Graig Nettles and Vada Pinson turned the trick back in 1971.
Tonight, the Indians play the Minnesota Twins in the start of a four-game series. First pitch is at 7:05. Before the game, the Indians will honor Jim Thome.

Freddy's Bar & Backroom
Out Of Your Head Collective--Brooklyn Series
627 5th Ave
Brooklyn, NY
Sun, October 7, 2012
Out of Your Head is both a collective of improvising musicians in Brooklyn as well as a regular performance event at Freddy's Bar and Backroom. Bassist Adam Hopkins, originally from Baltimore, founded the NY chapter in January 2012 to help expand and unify the local creative music scene. OOYH currently involves over 75 NY-based musicians and some of the finest improvisers in the world, including Tony Malaby and Gerald Cleaver. For every performance Hopkins hand picks a group of musicians from the collective to perform two sets of improvised music—forming groups that have never rehearsed nor played together. The music is created in the moment then gone, and by a group of people who may not even know each other before the first note is played. Currently the collective will appear the first and third Sundays of each month at Freddy's Bar and Backroom, and will be two sets starting at 9:30pm and at no cover charge.

Residents of a Staten Island home have an unwelcome guest in their home, a raccoon whom they say has moved in with family in tow.
"You can hear the babies screaming in the middle of the night," said renter Bernadette Reid-Collins. "Two, three o'clock in the morning."
"The sounds is like babies screaming and other things," said renter Luz Rivera.
Tenants say the raccoon and its babies not only keep them up at night but also use their ceiling as a toilet.
The raccoon has been coming in through the chimney and crawling around the attic with its babies for the past two months, according to the tired tenants.
"They need to pay rent at this point," Reid-Collins said.
The renters say at first their landlord refused to believe there were raccoons in the roof. Then, after some persuading, they sent a pest control professional to set relocation traps, to no effect.
After the renters called NY1, the station called management for the building. They told us they're now working with two pest control professionals who are on the case every night in response to our call.
NY1 will continue to follow this story.

Greek islands
In 1993 and 1997 I spent my holidays along Greek islands. The price of everything was still so convenient at that time without Euro and I spent months there enjoying life with my best friends.
The first trip was in several of the Cyclades islands, as geologist I could not miss Santorini island of course. The second trip was in the famous island of Rhodes.
I was a student at University and also a backpacker traveling by ferry boat and spending few bucks per day in a tent camping, and every night was a party.
The Mediterranean Sea and the beaches in Greek islands were absolutely fabulous as you can see in the photos.
The best part was that each time when we got bored or tired of some Greek island in few hours you we were able to get a ferry boat for a new island and a new adventure. New spot, new town, new life, new adventure, it was an amazing time, I was so young and for sure those summers will never come back.
I was not yet in photography but I did make some good pictures over there, especially I love the photos I shot leaving mainland to Greek islands at sunset.
After the trip and the images of Greek islands on the way back to Italy, I visited also Athens.
I can not say much because I just spent there in the capital of Greece few hours but at least I got my chance to visit the ancient ruins.The old city is nice but the surroundings are definitely horrible and polluted.
Regretfully I have no photos there because my films was already finished and the money not enough to buy a new ones. I had in my pocket just the money to buy the return boat ticket, amazing old days!
The Greek Islands are a collection of over 6,000 islands and islets that belong to Greece.
Only 227 of the islands are inhabited, and only 78 of those have more than 100 inhabitants.
The Greek islands are traditionally grouped into: Saronic Islands near Athens, a large but dense collection occupying the central part of the Aegean Sea called Cyclades, the Dodecanese another collection in the southeast between Crete and Turkey, a small tight group off the coast of Euboea called the Sporades, and the Ionian Islands located to the west of the mainland in the Ionian Sea.
I visited Cyclades, Santorini and Rhodes.
The significant Late Neolithic and Early Bronze Age Cycladic culture is best known for its schematic flat idols carved out of the islands' pure white marble centuries before the great Bronze Age culture arose in Crete.
These small statues have been looted from burials to satisfy a thriving Cycladic antiquities market since the early 20th century.
A distinctive Neolithic culture amalgamating Anatolian and mainland Greek elements arose in the western Aegean before 4000 B.C., based on emmer wheat and wild-type barley, sheep and goats, pigs, and tuna fishing.
Each of the small Cycladic islands could support no more than a few thousand people, the islands faded into insignificance, with the exception of Delos, which retained its archaic reputation as a sanctuary throughout antiquity and until the emergence of Christianity.
The first archaeological excavations of the 1880s were followed by systematic work by the British School that investigated burial sites on several islands and coined the term "Cycladic civilization".
The context for many of these Cycladic figurines has been mostly destroyed and their meaning may never be completely understood.
Also known as Thera is a volcanic island located in the southern Aegean Sea, about 200 km southeast from Greece's mainland.
Santorini is essentially what remains of an enormous volcanic explosion, destroying the earliest settlements on what was formerly a single island, and leading to the creation of the current geological caldera.
A giant central lagoon, more or less rectangular, and measuring about 12 by 7 km and surrounded by 300 m high steep cliffs on three sides.
The island's harbors all lie in the lagoon and there are no ports on the outer perimeter of the island; the capital, Fira, clings to the top of the cliff looking down on the lagoon. Santorini is the site of one of the largest volcanic eruptions in recorded history: the Minoan eruption (sometimes called the Thera eruption), which occurred some 3,600 years ago at the height of the Minoan civilization.
The eruption left a large caldera surrounded by volcanic ash deposits hundreds of feet deep and may have led indirectly to the collapse of the Minoan civilization on the island of Crete, 110 km to the south, through the creation of a gigantic tsunami.
Another popular theory holds that the Thera eruption is the source of the legend of Atlantis.
Excavations starting in 1967 at the site called Akrotiri, the best-known "Minoan" site outside of Crete, the homeland of the culture.
Only the southern tip of a large town has been uncovered, yet it has revealed complexes of multi-level buildings, streets, and squares with remains of walls standing as high as eight meters, all entombed in the solidified ash of the eruption. Some of the houses in Akrotiri are major structures, some amongst them three stories high.
The site was not a palace-complex such as are found in Crete, but its excellent masonry and fine wall-paintings show that this was certainly no conglomeration of merchants' warehousing either. A loom-workshop suggests organized textile weaving for export. This Bronze Age civilization between 3000 to 2000 B.C., and reached its peak in the period 2000 to 1580 B.C..
The island was inhabited in the Neolithic period, although little remains of this culture. In the 16th century B.C. the Minoans came to Rhodes.
In the 8th century B.C. the island's settlements started to form, with the coming of the Dorians, who built the three important cities of Lindos, Ialyssos and Kameiros.
The Persians invaded and overran the island, but were in turn defeated by forces from Athens in 478 B.C.. Rhodes became a part of the growing empire of Alexander the Great in 332 B.C., after he defeated the Persians.
Following the death of Alexander Rhodes formed strong commercial and cultural ties with the Ptolemies in Alexandria, and together formed the Rhodo-Egyptian alliance that controlled trade throughout the Aegean in the 3rd century B.C.. The city developed into a maritime, commercial and cultural center; its coins circulated nearly everywhere in the Mediterranean.
Its famous schools of philosophy, science, literature and rhetoric. In 305 B.C., the Rhodians after surviving a long siege erect a statue of their sun god, Helios, the statue since called the Colossus of Rhodes.
In 164 B.C., Rhodes signed a treaty with Rome, enjoyed numerous privileges, but these were later lost in various machinations of Roman politics. Cassius eventually invaded the island and sacked the city.
In 395,the long Byzantine Empire-period began for Rhodes, when the eastern half of the Roman empire became gradually more Greek. Rhodes was occupied by the Muslim forces of Muawiyah I in 672.
In 1309 the Byzantine era came to an end when the island was occupied by named "Knights of Rhodes", the city was rebuilt into a model of the European medieval ideal.
Many of the city's famous monuments, including the Palace of the Grand Master, were built during this period.
Ultimately, however, Rhodes fell to the large army of Suleiman the Magnificent in December 1522. In 1912, Italy seized Rhodes from the Turks.
Due to the Treaty of Lausanne, the island, together with the Dodecanese, was officially assigned to Italy. It became the core of their possession of the Isole Italiane dell'Egeo.
In 1948, together with the other islands of the Dodecanese, Rhodes was united with Greece.

There's been a little spring rearranging going on here at 7 All Together.
I've been wanting a new look for my blog for awhile. Something different, all my own, special.
But, since I know zilch, zero, nada about all the stuff that's makes up blog design, it wasn't happening.
Until this weekend. I stumbled upon Making Cute Blogs. Oh boy, free tutorials with no professional software needed for anyone who wants a cute blog....raising hand, wildly waving, that's me!
I used the tutorial for making a custom header using Picnik. So easy, so quick and so free! The tutorial is very clear and understandable with lots of pictures. I kind of started on a whim thinking it would be over my head and I wouldn't be able to figure out how to get it into my blog. Nope. I followed step by step. Never had a question. No what the heck does this mean moments. And as you can see, I got it into my blog!
I wasn't quite sure what I wanted for a header so I made two different ones.
I'd love to hear your thoughts....what you like, don't like, what you think of the ideas and colors.
Now on to adding some pages.......
I'm linking up to Weekend Bloggy Reading with Amanda at Serenity Now and Round Robin with Amy at Keeping up with the Schultz Family

Leaked demo of Crimson Dragon for Xbox 360 shows a game worth waiting for
We recently discovered that Crimson Dragon: Side Story has become Windows Phone 8 compatible, but it's been a while since we had a chance to talk about the upcoming Xbox 360 Crimson Dragon game. Over the weekend a playable demo leaked onto the Japanese Xbox 360 Marketplace before being quickly pulled down. Thankfully we now have YouTube footage of Crimson Dragon to dissect, plus DLC news for the upcoming Kinect game.
Mysterious delays
Hestrine comes to life on Xbox 360
The story of Crimson Dragon's release schedule is quite interesting. First announced as Project Draco back in 2010, the spiritual successor to Panzer Dragoon eventually became known as Crimson Dragon. Just a few days before its scheduled June 15, 2012 release date, Microsoft (the publisher) suddenly delayed the game without explanation.
The Windows Phone companion game Crimson Dragon: Side Story debuted on September 11 that year, but still no word of the primary console game's fate. The demo that leaked over the weekend was originally shown at PAX East in April 2012, so it doesn't exactly prove that the game has moved forward.
In the absence of word from Microsoft or developer Grounding, we can only speculate as to the seemingly completed Xbox Live Arcade game's fate. The person who uploaded the demo footage to YouTube suggests that Microsoft might have chosen to hold onto Crimson Dragon until the Xbox 360 successor debuts alongside the Kinect 2.0.
He's probably right. The game already looks beautiful, but the increased precision of Kinect 2.0 would likely result in much more accurate and enjoyable controls. Short of switching the game to a retail release (thus necessitating the addition of lots of new content), I can't think of any other plausible explanation for the extended delay.
Connections to Side Story
We could yet endure a lengthy wait before Crimson Dragon finally comes out, but the demo footage provides lots of reason for Side Story players to get excited. The Windows Phone game might not have impressed from technical standpoints like texture resolution or polygon count, but it's still a beautiful game thanks to the wonderful creature and world designs. Watching the XBLA Crimson Dragon in motion, we see all of that artistry come to life with far, far more details than ever before. It almost makes the WP game look like Kristen Stewart by comparison!
Now, there still won't be any connectivity or shared progress between the two games, but the story, world, and even some enemies are very much the same. We can see the ocean, forest, and underground areas from the WP game make their return in stunning form. Several mobile enemies reappear on the big screen, including a pair of Hestrines – Side Story's second boss. The menus and experience system also look remarkably similar to the game WP7 and WP8 owners already enjoy. One difference is that Crimson Dragon has not one but six different dragons to level up as the game progresses.
Downloadable content on the way
Post-mission screens: WP on left, XBLA on right
Along with the free demo, three pieces of Crimson Dragon PDLC Treasure Packs leaked during the same time period: the Accelerator Pack, Boss Pack and Rare Pack. None were actually purchasable. Our own Japanese tipster Sacra explains that the packs probably allow users to unlock skills for their dragons early rather than grinding for them in-game. Considering that Side Story allows/requires players to purchase jewels with MS Points in order to awaken skills, PDLC Treasure Packs in the console game shouldn't come as much of a surprise.
Dragon hunting
Let's hope that Microsoft decides to share some of their plans for Crimson Dragon sooner rather than later. Side Story fans will surely be that much more eager to play the XBLA game after watching the tantalizing demo footage!

Great write-up, Paul. This is one of my favorite WP games and I've been anticipating this release on Xbox 360 for quite a while.
pbroy says:
I could care less about the Kinect controls.I just want to play this game with a controller!
Kent_F says:
It looks to me from the video posted, that the game doesn't really necessitate Kinect controls all that much. The shooting part seems pretty much just like Child of Eden (which plays perfectly with a controller), and one could easily make the argument that the left and right sticks could simply be used to control movement of the dragon and aiming (again, just like Child of Eden - except there wasn't "movement" for you to do, so only one stick was needed).

After Buyer is Shot in the Head, Law Enforcement Caution Public on Craigslist Crimes
By: Marci Manley, KARK 4 News
Updated: November 15, 2012
"I would rather go shop in a mall, store because it's not safe," she said, before browsing through a wall of shoes at the mall.
On Wednesday, Pine Bluff Police say two men met up with a seller after seeing car rims for sale on Cragislist. Officers say the seller attempted to rob them of their cash and sent one to the hospital with a gunshot wound to the head.
"Yeah, I would never meet up with anyone I didn't know. It's just not safe," Ridgle reiterated.
"You really don't want to put yourself in a bad situation you really don't have to be in," said Lt. Carl Minden with the Pulaski County Sheriff's Office.
Law enforcement, beginning to see more cases of crimes in Central Arkansas stemming from Craigslist.
"It's not an every day occurrence but it is something that people need to be aware of," he said. "You don't want people to be paranoid. You don't want people to panic. But you want them to be safe.
Buyers should beware of who is making the offer and where they want to do the deal.
"There are people looking to take advantage. It may be an ulterior motive to rob you which we've seen a couple of cases recently in the Central Arkansas area," Minden said. "And if you're going to meet up with them, select a place that's safe -- in public where there's a lot of foot traffic and preferably during the day."
Sellers can also be at risk, like one UALR student who was held up at gunpoint on-campus for the iPad he listed to sell through the site.
"The student actually invited the robber to campus, thinking he was selling a computer," said Vice Chancellor of Finance and Administration Bob Adams. "Obviously the perpetrator came here with a different agenda, and it was a Craigslist deal gone bad."
At the end of the day, Minden said there's one question to ask yourself.
"Is every person using Craigslist looking to commit a crime, no. But do you want to take that risk?" he asked.
Ridgle said it's something she's not willing to stick her neck out for, and that she'll stick to shopping in stores where security and sales clerks can see her coming.
Pine Bluff Police are following up on leads, and police say the victim's injuries are not life-threatening

If you want to know how it's done, the secret lies inside a bubble: "It" being how sports video games are able to make the virtual players look so similar to the real ones. EA Sports recently gave NY1 a behind-the-scenes look at what it calls a head scan session, inviting our cameras to the English Premier League's Tottenham Hotspur photo shoot for FIFA 13 due out in September.
Developers say it takes about four days to then make the photos into an avatar and they insist the quality is so good that they have to bump them down a few notches just to work with today's consoles, meaning the images taken now should last about 10 years into the future.
Many of the players will tell you no matter how many medals or trophies or championships they win there's still nothing quite like seeing themselves playing as themselves in a video game to help them realize they've truly made it.
"When you're young the first time you ever see yourself is great, ya know. Not if you're rubbish in the game though," says Tottenham Hotspur Midfielder David Bentley.
"It's maybe a little bit strange, the kids out there playing with you, pushing you and the team I suppose. You know as kids you always play the games and now to be in it it's good," says Tottenham Hotspur Captain Michael Dawson.
EA says it's actually trying to capture images of about 11,000 pro soccer players for FIFA 13. Those it misses have new renderings done by hand or old ones are just spruced up.
As for facial expressions and the ever changing hair styles, again due to the limitations of today's consoles, generic versions are layered over also by hand.

"Hanna Schmitz in 'The Reader' is responsible for the death of hundreds of Jews, but why do we sympathise with her?" Shelly Walia reviews "The Reader"
THOUGH her provocative portrayal of the ex-Schutzstaffel (SS) guard Hanna Schmitz in The Readerwon Kate Winslet the Oscar, it is fair to assume that Academy voters also took into account her work in Revolutionary Road. All this speaks volumes about her persistence, warmth and commitment to work.
Bernhard Schlink's novel The Reader (1995), on which the movie is based, tackles the problem of the inability of succeeding generations of Germans to respond to the tragedy of the Holocaust. The ideology of mass murder has a history and a context in all its perversity and evil.
Set in 1958, in the city of Heidelberg, the novel/film begins with the short and passionate affair between a 15-year-old schoolboy, Michael, and a 36-year-old tram conductress, Hanna Schmitz, who has him read to her from the classics before making love. She hides from him the fact that she cannot read or write, but he knows. The nude scenes are deeply aesthetic and coherent to the theme of dichotomy of passion and indifference. Then Hanna Schmitz disappears suddenly, only to be discovered by Michael eight years later at a war crimes trial.
She, along with a few others who had worked as SS guards, are held guilty of allowing Jews in their custody to die. When asked if she is the author of the report on the fire that killed the Jews, Hanna Schmitz does not deny it. Michael is confused and horrified that she regards the public exposure of her illiteracy far worse and humiliating than her involvement with the Nazi programme.
During the trial it is revealed that Hanna Schmitz had the terminally ill Jews read to her before sending them to the gas chambers. Michael conjectures that she probably wanted to make their last days bearable; or did she send them to their death so that her illiteracy remained a secret? Hanna Schmitz's true guilt is her illiteracy, which becomes an allegory for the contemporary misunderstanding of the Holocaust. She is convicted and sentenced to life imprisonment.
A German fate
Michael is left thinking: "I wanted simultaneously to understand Hanna's crime and to condemn it. But it was too terrible for that. When I tried to understand it, I had the feeling I was failing to condemn it as it must be condemned. When I condemned it as it must be condemned, there was no room for understanding.... I wanted to pose myself both tasks – understanding and condemnation. But it was impossible to do both… the pain I went through because of my love for Hanna was, in a way, the fate of my generation, a German fate."
It is at the Natzweiler-Struthof concentration camp that Michael meets an old man who gives him his reasons for the complicity of those behind the Holocaust tragedy: "An executioner is not under orders. He's doing his work, he doesn't hate the people he executes, he's not taking revenge on them, he's not killing them because they're in his way or threatening or attacking them. They're a matter of such indifference to him that he can kill them as easily as not."
In the novel, Bernhard Schlink asks himself and the reader: "What should our second generation have done, what should it do with the knowledge of the horrors of the extermination of the Jews? We should not believe we can comprehend the incomprehensible, we may not compare the incomparable, we may not inquire because to make the horrors an object of inquiry is to make the horrors an object of discussion, even if the horrors themselves are not questioned, instead of accepting them as something in the face of which we can only fall silent in revulsion, shame and guilt. Should we only fall silent in revulsion, shame and guilt? To what purpose?"
The story derives its significance from the complex notions of justice and responsibility that it throws up in the court scene, a location for the conflict between ethics and duty. The public prosecutor asks Hanna Schmitz to explain why she had allowed more than 300 mothers and children to perish in the fire when the church in which the Jews were locked up had come under heavy aerial bombardment.
She replies that as a guard on duty, she could not possibly open the doors of the church to allow the prisoners to escape. She reasons that it never occurred to her to unlock the doors of the blazing church; her sense of duty prevails over any pity or sense of ethics and humanitarian rationale. Her inability to see the reasons for her persecution seems justified when seen in the light of the controversy over Hannah Arendt's article, Eichmann in Jerusalem. In 1963, Hannah Arendt's articles forThe New Yorker on Adolf Eichmann's trial in an Israeli court provoked a heated discussion among Western intellectuals, including Irving Howe and Alfred Cazin.
Both the characters, the philosopher and the heroine of The Reader, carry the same first name. It is for this reason that the movie becomes intellectually challenging, when seen in the light of Hannah Arendt's philosophy on "the banality of evil". Why do we sympathise with Hanna Schmitz?
Her persecution goes down well with the Jewish lobby and those who hold a traditional view of ethics and morality. But seen in terms of her sense of duty, the crime begins to take on another shade of the responsibility of action.
Within the ambit of one's duty lies the question of behaviour according to the demands of the job in hand even if it means death for some. This is the central paradox of any discussion on the philosophical issue of ethics and duty. It is commonly held that the commitment of an evil deed must involve an evil heart or a criminal temperament.
But within Hannah Arendt's concept of the "banality of evil" this is not the case. You can very well commit a culpable deed without having a streak of wickedness. Hannah Arendt argues, "It is, I think, a simple fact that people are at least as often tempted to do good and need an effort to do evil as vice versa."
Hanna Schmitz has no pleasure in cruelty, but has acquired the faculty of shutting her mind to it. This is regimentation under a strict bureaucracy. She lacks a criminal mind, as did Eichmann. The fact that Hanna Schmitz passionately enjoys her teenage paramour reading to her from the classics and that she permits him to make love to her only after she has relished the reading shows that her reprehensible act does not come from an evil mind.
Eichmann's involvement in the deportation of hundreds of Jews to the gas chambers does not give him any pangs of conscience; it is the result of a deep-seated desire to fulfil the demands of an assignment. Personal feelings or the sense of morality are not permitted to interfere with the sense of duty.
All his life, he had shown an acute sense of law and morality that dominated his every action. When it came to organising the deportation, he single-mindedly saw to it that the job in hand reached its conclusion. To Hannah Arendt, it was more a case of thoughtlessness than a "monstrosity", an incapacity to "think from the point of view of others."
In a deeply regimented totalitarian state, individualism amounts to inconsequential actions. What if one revolts? One's removal will not mean the arrival of another rebel. It would end in a more controlled autonomy under a harsher bureaucratic system that co-opts more pliable recruits into the system. And in such a system, one confronts two kinds of people, intellectuals who have the conviction and the mind to rebel, and the others who consider themselves as "normal" and value conformism and obedience to the rules of the state.
Hannah Arendt, therefore, agrees with Immanuel Kant who "defined judgment as the faculty which always comes into play when we are confronted with particulars". There are no rules that can be applicable to circumstances that in a particular situation appear unique. At the human level, the choices we make determine our destiny and define our ideological stance. Rules are too conventional and narrow in scope to cover the paradoxes and ironies of our existence.
In order not to reveal to the world that she is an illiterate, Hanna Schmitz refuses to admit that she is not the author of the order made out against the prisoners. This lie would cost her a lifetime in prison followed by suicide. But to the end she remains adamant that her actions were in coherence with her sense of duty. She donates her meagre wealth to the Jewish cause before dying, but nowhere is there any repentance. Justice and responsibility are after all not all that unambiguously simple concepts to deal with.

Collierville, TN
Overview of Collierville
With its historic downtown and vibrant business ethic, the bedroom community of Collierville is one of the most charming in Tennessee. Although this city is home to some of the titans of industry like Pepsi and Carrier, Collierville apartments for rent still have that small-town feel that makes the city so special. According to information from the U.S. Census Bureau, the 2010 population was nearly 44,000, making Collierville an excellent tight-knit community with the amenities of Memphis only a short drive away.
Living in Collierville, TN
Incorporated in 1850, Collierville was named after Jesse R. Collier, an entrepreneur that bought the land and laid out the tracts into lots, advertising the area as the "Town of Collier." The city took a blow during the Civil War but quickly bounced back in the 1900s, becoming one of the major trade centers for cotton. Today, this dynamic city is full of successful businesses, but still keeps its focus on preserving the past with places like Confederate Park, a monument in the business district. With its high quality of life and low cost of living, it is no surprise that so many people are calling Collierville home.
Collierville Attractions and Special Events
One of the city's favorite annual events is Fair on the Square, a gathering of crafts, food and games every spring in the historic downtown district. All of the proceeds are used to support education, community life and environmental projects, and local art, showing the city's philanthropic side.
Collierville is also home to 11 regional and neighborhood parks. With more than 60 miles of trails connecting schools and commercial districts, residents have easy access to biking, running or a simple stroll in the great outdoors. One of the city's favorite spots is H.W. Cox Jr. Park, home to the Harrell Performing Arts Theater, the Collierville Antique Show and the annual Independence Day Celebration.

Human beings are intelligent and yet none of them are perfect or make perfect things. Therefore even nature does not rule out Intelligent Design. We have an example of it in our very selves. There are all kinds of evil but this does not disprove God. Christianity explains evil in its own way but that is not the issue here.
You assume you know the mind of an Intelligent Being and can judge it. That would make you greater than.... God can act by even letting evil happen if it meets His purpose in Christianity. It is called the permissive will of God.. I have seen good come even from sickness. Would you deny this? You are making all kinds of theological and philosophical statements with no scientific basis. Christianity has its own theological reasons, with the, "fall," Etc, but that is beyond the topic,
True assigned randomness is not predictable nor random. Prove it is random. This issue we have delt with before.

MARTIN — April is National Autism Awareness Month, and one local student has gone above and beyond in raising funds to help support The Highlands Center for Autism in Prestonsburg.
The event, "Volley for Autism," which was organized by Torie Nairn, was held Monday evening in the gymnasium of the Piarist School in Martin. All proceeds brought in through admissions, concessions and auctions were donated to the Highlands Center for Autism.
"I thinks it's wonderful that she took the initiative and wanted to help her community," said Shelli Deskins, program director at Highlands Center for Autism.
Nairn, a junior at the Piarist School and summer worker at the Center for Autism, put together the fundraiser to help support and provide scholarship money for potential students to the center. Nairn spent the last summer working as an intern at the facility.
"I really liked it," Nairn said of working at the Autism Center, where she says she got to help put together activities and tactile learning objects.
Nairn says she is currently planning to attend Morehead State University after graduation, and hopes to focus her studies on occupational therapy.
"She is a wonderful example to other young people who have an idea, and take it and run with it," said Deskins, adding that Nairn had already raised quite a bit of money.
"This type of intervention, applied behavior and analysis, is very expensive and families may not be able to afford the full part of the tuition," Deskins said. The balance of that tuition is usually made up through several fundraisers held throughout the year like "Volley for Autism."
According to the U.S. National Library of Medicine, Autism is a developmental disorder that appears in the first three years of life and affects the brain's normal development of social and communication skills.
Coinciding with National Autism Awareness Month, several studies have recently been released looking at new information and potential causes of autism. One study, released Monday, suggested maternal obesity may play a role. While finding the exact cause of autism appears daunting, new information continues to pour in after more than $1 billion has been spent funding research in the last decade.
The Highlands Center for Autism, which opened in July 2009, is a year-round day treatment center serving children from the earliest diagnosis through school age. The educational foundation of our program is based on ABA, which is an approach that is grounded in decades of research. We offer the only center-based program in Kentucky using ABA in a clinical educational setting. We are a mirror program of the Cleveland Clinic Center for Autism.
