text: Muscular action adventure set in 1912 Mexico, starring Yul Brynner - with hair! - as the bandit revolutionary Pancho Villa. Robert Mitchum is the gun-running US pilot who joins the rebel cause while Charles Bronson was never tougher as Villa's merciless right-hand man. With a script from the legendary Sam Peckinpah and Chinatown writer Robert Towne, it's morally suspect but as exhilarating as juggling dynamite.Read Review

The SCLC set up in Augusta Thursday morning in support of Jeannette Stevens. Stevens is requesting more information in the death of her 8 year old son, Jon Stevens, who drowned in a neighbor's pool in April.
"We are investigating this tragic death," says Charles Steele, SCLC CEO. "We feel that justice is not being served. The job of the Southern Christian Leadership Conference, in the spirit of Dr. Martin Luther King, is to bring out the truth because a threat to justice anywhere is a threat to justice everywhere. The SCLC National office is firmly in support of Jeanette Stevens and her grieving family."
We will have more from today's news conference coming up tonight on FOX54 News at 10pm.
It was a month ago today, when Jeanette Stevens discovered her youngest son dead at a neighbor's house. She was told his death was accidental but with so many unanswered questions, she is pleading with the Richmond County Sheriff's Office to take a reopen the case.
Attempting to fight her tears, Stevens said she wants answers about the death of her son Jon Stevens. She said she is being ignored.
"They have taken my baby from me and I have no answers as to why my baby is gone," Stevens said. "As a mother it hurts really bad to know they are just brushing off my son's death and it's not fair."
A Richmond County incident report says Jon's death was an accident but Stevens is not convinced.
"I know this isn't an accident because Jon didn't even like water," said Stevens.
To make matters worse for the distraught mother, a 3-month backlog of autopsies at the GBI crime lab could postpone any closure she receives.
Grover Tuten, the Richmond County coroner, said an autopsy may not be available until August.
"We submitted the body to the bureau for a post-mortem examination," Tuten said. "They conducted an autopsy and the results of the autopsy are not available at this time."
Stevens last saw her son alive around 3 in the afternoon on April 13. Jon went to a house across the street to play with a friend. It is unclear what happened next but Stevens said an investigator didn't have many answers.
"She said that the boys were cleaning the pool and digging for rocks and Jon must have fallen in," said Stevens. "I asked her did they abruptly stop cleaning the pool? Did they not see a boy's body in the bottom of the pool? She had no answers for that."
Richmond County investigators have confirmed they have interviewed all those who were with Jon separately and had consistent stories but the family disagreed. They claimed stories have changed several times.
Stevens believes her son Jon was murdered.
"I think someone pushed Jon in," said Stevens.
The Stevens family will hold a press conference with the Southern Christian Leadership Conference to gain community support on Thursday. Details below.

understated genius.
The mullet cut seemed to really take "try, try again" pretty seriously. It didn't work on hair in the 80's, 90's, or the 2000's, but the mullet wasn't fazed — decades later, it's back — this time in our skirts, shirts, and more (and this time, it's business in the back, party in the front!).
Though we've seen the trend on the runways of Wes Gordon, Jason Wu, Diane von Furstenberg and more, it seems to be getting more attention on high street than in high fashion. For a style that's so sartorial and universally flattering (really, how often does that happen anymore?), I'm disappointed — so to spread the word, here are some of my favorite dip hem items!
Parker Strapless Ruffle Dress, $286.00, Bloomingdales
Hello, graduation dress? It would look great with my fave pair of brown leather Stuart Weitzman wedges…so I think yes.
LOVE Berry Crinkle Asymmetrical Maxi, $75.30, In Love With Fashion
That flowy chiffon is gorgy. The wrap effect in the front (check out the link above) adds to the movement of the skirt, and the way fabric moves is what I'm most inspired by.
Sparkle & Fade High/Low Knit Midi Skirt, $49, Urban Outfitters
No midi skirt has ever looked good on me except for this one, which, on my 5 foot frame, is practically a max skirt. Oh well.
Meanwhile, I'm on the lookout for a high-low sleeveless chiffon button-up…let me know if you see one somewhere?

[Anthony rises with an effort. He turns to Roberts who looks at him. They stand several seconds, gazing at each other fixedly; Anthony lifts his hand, as though to salute, but lets it fall. The expression of Roberts's face changes from hostility to wonder. They bend their heads in token of respect. Anthony turns, and slowly walks towards the curtained door. Suddenly he sways as though about to fall, recovers himself, and is assisted out by Edgar and Enid; Underwood follows, but stops at the door. Roberts remains motionless for several seconds, staring intently after Anthony, then goes out into the hall.]

[Harness, pale
and resolute, regards with a grim half-smile the

Harness. A woman dead; and the two best men both broken!

We offer two ways to locate information:

Light to medium bodied wines with lots of juicy fruit, typically medium acid and medium oak.
Full bodied wines that have typically undergone malo-lactic fermentation and/or spent time in oak.
The long, friendly 2012 growing season enhanced the pear, tropical and stone fruit tones in our Dutton Ranch Chardonnay, framing the focused citrus and minerality that are always at the core of the wine. The citrus aromas lean toward Meyer lemon and tangerine this year, supported by pear/guava fruit elements and ginger/cream wood characters, inviting you in for a sip. In the mouth, the lusciousness that expresses this season is balanced by solid acidity and an evolving fruit core that keeps you coming back. Lemon sourball, ripe pear and a touch of green apple fill out the fruit profile, while the steely minerality and sweet cream touches juxtapose to add a complexity that we love in this wine. Moderate alcohol and the signature juicy acidity of Green Valley facilitate the fresh, lingering citrus/ginger finish. This is a wine that evolves in the glass and will easily reward 5 years of cellar aging, but both will be a challenge with its immediate allure.
Dutton-Goldfield Winery began with a handshake in a vineyard in 1998, when longtime colleagues and friends Steve Dutton and Dan Goldfield recognized a shared vision between them-to craft wines that express the personalities of their cool-climate vineyards, and which they'd enjoy drinking at their own dinner tables.

We know that not all horror remakes are created equal. As we explored in the first volume of BGH Classic's Remake-Apolooza, with the right mix of vision and talent you can rework a classic. This week marks one of the biggest tests of that theory to date, as the long-anticipated "Evil Dead" reimagining hits theaters -- and the Bloody Good Horror podcast.
In honor of "Evil Dead," we're offering up a second volume of BGH Classic remake episodes. In this pack we break into some of the thornier questions around remakes, starting with one of the most notorious remakes of them all: Rob Zombie's "Halloween."
BGH Classic - Remake-Apolooza! Vol. 2 contains discussions of Rob Zombie's "Halloween," "Fright Night," "Piranha 3D," "The Uninvited" and "Night of the Demons."

Massage to Soothe Your Cranky Baby
Empirical research suggests our appreciation of massage starts early—as tastes go, it's one that needs little acquiring. That's certainly the message behind the growing trend of infant massage, where mothers and fathers (and sometimes caretakers) bond with their wee ones through loving touch and improve their overall health. Parents, nurses, and doctors say that massage helps babies grow better, improves digestion, and eases colic. Studies conducted at the Touch Research Institutes at the University of Miami School of Medicine show that infant massage facilitates weight gain in preterm infants, decreases babies' level of stress hormones, and balances out their sleep/wake cycle. "Nurturing touch is important for children's physical, social, behavioral, mental, and cognitive development," says Linda Garofallou, an infant and pediatric massage therapist at Children's Hospital in Newark, New Jersey. She gives infant massage to patients and also trains others in the technique.
To do an infant massage, choose a time when your baby is well fed and rested. Put a towel in a quiet room for the baby to lie on, choose a natural oil such as coconut, almond, or avocado, and play relaxing music. Assess the baby's receptivity by observing her response to your touch. If she is stiff or tense, then use your intuition: either hold her closely in your arms until she relaxes—or wait for another time. A gazing, quiet, yet alert state means she is ready to begin.
A common stroke, called Indian Milking, entails holding one foot with your hand and then "milking" the leg from the ankle to thigh. Follow this by holding the thigh with both hands and gently twisting and squeezing your hands as you move from thigh to foot. (For more strokes, see Vimala Schneider's classic book, Infant Massage: A Handbook for Loving Parents [Bantam, 1989] or visit the International Association of Infant Massage, www.iaim.ws/home.html , to find a certified infant massage instructor near you.)
Babes aren't the only ones who benefit from infant massage. Experts like Andrea Kelly, ceo of the International Association of Infant Massage in Ventura, California say that giving a massage releases nurturing hormones for both the mother (oxytocin) and the father (prolactin).
In addition to bonding, infant massage helps kids born with addictions or serious health problems, says Joanne Starr, MD, director of pediatric cardiothoracic surgery at Children's Hospital. She's seen the positive effects of Garofallou's infant massage on the tiny heart patients she's operated on. "I think it's a very important part of their healing," says Starr, who adds that many of these infants can't be held because they are hooked up to ventilators. "It's such a helpless feeling for the parents, but massage empowers them to do something."

ATHENS – For Georgia, the first half of the Progressive Legends Classic was hard. The second half figures to be a lot harder.
The Bulldogs fell to 0-2 in the tournament with a 62-60 loss to Southern Miss in overtime Thursday night at Stegeman Coliseum. Now the Bulldogs (1-2) head up to New York City for the "championship rounds" of this 12-team, four-game event. There, in the sparkling confines of the new Barclays Center in Brooklyn, Georgia will face No. 1-ranked Indiana Monday night. They will play either No. 13-ranked UCLA or Georgetown on Tuesday, depending on which teams win.
To say the early outlook for Georgia this season is bleak wouldn't be strong enough.
"We haven't played well out of the gate, but we have a lot of opportunities in front of us," Georgia coach Mark Fox. "It's a game at a time and, with this group, it's a day at a time. There's so much to learn from this game. I thought that all of our freshmen, who I thought really hurt us the last time out, were all better players today. But we all have to continue to improve."
Georgia, which had trailed by as many as 12 points in the first half, stayed on the Golden Eagles heels for most of the second half. It got within two points twice midway through it only to see Southern answer with an alley-oop dunk once and a 3-point shot the second time.
Finally, on a pair of Nemanja Djurisic free throws, Georgia pulled within one point, 47-46, with 6:48 to play. Once again, Southern Miss responded with a shot-clock-beating 3-pointer by Jerrold Brooks. But Djurisic answered with a trey on the other end, and a frantic finish set forth.
Georgia's Donte Williams missed four free throws and the Golden Eagles would get out front by six inside the final four minutes. But after a Kentavious Caldwell-Pope free throw, Djurisic got the Bulldogs back in business.
The junior forward from Montenegro made a 3-pointer at the 1:58 mark then, after a Southern Miss turnover, he made a running 7-foot jump shot to tie the game at 55-all with 1:22 to go. Neither team was able to convert on their last two possessions, and the game went to overtime.
Georgia grabbed its first lead since it led 3-0 on a Marcus Thornton put-back 22 seconds into the extra period. The Bulldogs went back ahead 60-58 on a Vincent Williams 3-pointer at the 3:36 mark.
Southern Miss tied it with a pair of free throws from Dwayne Davis with 2:01 left and Georgia had several opportunities to regain the advantage. But with 31.9 seconds to go, Vincent Williams had the ball stolen by Southern Miss forward Michael Craig and Davis scored on a fast-break lay-up to put the Eagles up 62-60.
That left the Bulldogs the opportunity to get the final shot and they actually got three. All were 3-pointers by Caldwell-Pope — two misses sandwiched by one block — and that's the way the game ended.
"We're definitely taking it hard," Djurisic said of the Bulldogs losing now to Youngstown State and Southern Miss. "It was a hard-fought game. We had so many little mistakes tonight and we eventually just gave it to them, like that last steal that they got. To play that hard and lose the ball at half-court and give up (a layup) to lose the game, it's hard hit for us. Hopefully we're going to get up from this and learn something from it."
But Fox said it wasn't the series of plays at the end of overtime that beat Georgia.
"It was a hard-fought game and I want to congratulate Southern Miss because they made the plays to win and they deserve credit for that," Fox said. "But we have to recognize that you can't leave 10 points at the foul line and get out-rebounded like we did in the second half and win basketball games. I thought that was the two keys: second-half rebounding and our poor performance at the foul line."
Georgia was 11-for-21 on free throws and missed five out of six during a two-minute stretch toward the end of regulation. "If we shoot 65 percent, which is not any good, we win," Fox lamented.
The Bulldogs were out-rebounded 22-13 in the second half and 36 to 27 for the game and shot 38.5 percent from the field. Caldwell-Pope led the scoring with 17 points and Djurisic added 12.
Southern Miss was led by Jerrold Brooks with 17 and Davis had 14. The Golden Eagles improve to 2-0. Their other win was also in overtime, 67-64 Monday over Western Kentucky.
Donte Williams returned to lineup for the first time this season. The junior from Ellenwood did not play in the first two games for disciplinary reasons unspecified by coach Mark Fox. Williams, who started every game last season, was arrested over the summer marijuana possession. However, those charges were later dropped and Williams claimed later to have passed drug tests.
"It wasn't about that," Williams said after the game. "It was just about being more responsible."
Williams did not start – senior John Florveus did — but entered the game at the 16:40 mark of the first half. He was called for two fouls in the opening period and played only five minutes. Williams finally scored his first points of the season on a 15-foot baseline jumper at the 16:49 of the second half. He finished with four points and four rebounds in 25 minutes.
"It was my first game back, so it's going to take time," Williams said. "I wasn't going to just come out there and start scoring and dunking and rebounding. I had to get the feeling back and get in a groove."
The Golden Eagles are rebuilding this year under first-year coach Donnie Tyndall. They loss the top five scorers from last year's team, which finished 25-9 and reached the NCAA tournament under coach Larry Eustachy. Thursday's game was the third all-time between Georgia and Southern Miss. The Bulldogs won the other two in 1974 and 1975.
"We thought one of the keys for us was to at least be even on the backboards and we actually out-rebounded that big, strong, physical front line by nine," Tyndall said. "The other thing was to try and limit Caldwell-Pope, their All-SEC guard, to a tough night."
Caldwell-Pope was 5-of-21 shooting, including 3-of-14 from 3-point range. Three of his misses came in the last five seconds of overtime.
"The first one I had a good look," Caldwell-Pope said. "I guess I was a little too far back and didn't follow through on it. But I've made many shots like that. I've just got to come back and make my shots in the next game."
Georgia was coming off one of its worse losses in recent years. The Bulldogs dropped a 68-56 decision to Youngstown State in the first round of the Legends Classic on Monday, scoring just 14 points in the first half and shooting 32 percent for the game.
Georgia started Thursday's game much lthe same way. That is, ice cold.
The Bulldogs scored on the second possession of the game – they turned it over on their first possession – on a Vinnie Williams' 3-pointer, then didn't record another point until the 11:54 mark. They got four in one stop on that trip thanks to Caldwell-Pope. But until then Georgia had fallen behind 15-3.
Georgia trailed the Golden Eagles by double-digits for the majority of the opening half. The Bulldog finally mounted a semblance of a run toward the end, out-scoring Southern Miss 5-0 in the final minute. The key play was the last of the half. After in-bounding from the sideline with 1 second remaining, guard Sherrard Brantley swished a 40-foot shot from just over the half-court line to pull the Bulldogs within 31-27 at halftime.
"Our confidence is down a little bit," Djurisic said. "But the season is long. We can't this game affect the next. We need to get up and bounce back from this loss and we'll compete as hard as we can against Indiana. If we can compete for 40 minutes and not make as m,any mistakes as we did in this game, hopefully we can do some good things."

It is going to be a looooong season. I just can't beleive how bad this program has gotten. I realize it is a lot to ask for Georgia to be a top tier SEC program and ranked nationally in basketball…. but we should never be losing to the likes of Youngstown State or Southern Miss. I took a wait and see approach with Mark Fox. I know many were excited with some early success with Felton's players, but I don't like the direction he is taking us. Either he can't coach and/or he can't recruit or evaluate talent because we are a really bad basketball program right now.
November 16th, 2012
12:40 am
Fox is a good coach and he is taking the program in the right direction. It takes time when you're building it up from so low.
November 16th, 2012
12:43 am
Then the right direction appears to be down 'cause that is where Fox is taking it. First Youngstown, now So. Miss. The prospects aren't looking to bright
November 16th, 2012

Maybe they should drop basketball at UGA. They sure don't know how to play the game
November 16th, 2012
1:52 am
At least the players showed a pulse tonight. Let's face it, though. The guys inside have to play better defense. That was what I've noticed the most in the first three games. Djurisic, Williams, Thornton, Florveus, Cannon, Dixon, and Morris have to bring it. Every guy I just listed is at least 6′7″, so Coach Fox has good size on this team. Somehow, someway, our coaches have got to get through to these guys that they have to use their length to good advantage, especially on D.
November 16th, 2012
3:28 am
Basketball? Already? It's much too soon. Same thing with Christmas ads before Turkey Day.
November 16th, 2012
4:09 am
I agree. Fox has to recruit better players. We as fans can't keep tolerating excuses. This program should not be this bad. The basketball team has hit a all new low. He did well with Feltons players, but his talent evaluation is not good at all. Again other schools are bringing in new coaches and they are recruiting well and are starting to win. Some changes have got to be made.
November 16th, 2012
4:50 am
I have been watching UGA Basketball for 40 years and this is the worst it has ever been. No offense, No defense, No effort. Coach Fox is a nice guy, but it has been 4 years and we are not getting better. He recruits as good as Billy Knight was a GM. Need a Change.
November 16th, 2012
5:00 am
Tony Cole – Please, my friend, it does not take 4 + seasons. It is evident that this season is a wash. So are we to expect next season to be the breakout season? The 5 th year of this guy? Come on!
I've been talking this way for over a year….finally there is some idea that this program is headed in the wrong direction. MCGarity has a lot of confidence in Fox….if he has any more confidence in him then we need to look for another AD. come on man!
November 16th, 2012
5:04 am
BTW, Tony, you must have voted for Obama. That's what his campaign sounded like! Let me ask, you want 4 more years of this kind of basketball?
November 16th, 2012
6:31 am
20+ losses this year easy. 3 supposed cupcakes at home to begin the year and Fox barely beats one of them. In 7 possessions in the OT(with a 10-4 advantage in 2nd half fouls), UGA's pathetic offense never got inside the 3 point line. It's like there was no coaching and there obviously isn't nearly enough talent. Fox and his staff have done an atrocious job of constructing this roster. They've struck out on every key big man they've tried to recruit and are now trying to coach up plan C and D guys who just can't cut it on this level. They will be lucky to score 40 points against Indiana.
Year 5 doesn't promise to be any better. KCP will move on to the NBA next season to get away from this dumpster fire. Then what? I really thought Fox would do something with the program, but it's just not going to happen.
November 16th, 2012
6:53 am
UGA's offense is so bad a good high school team should be able to compete. They set their guards and wingmen to pass the ball back and forth around the perimeter while their post men stand on the perimeter of the lanes doing nothing. The opposition sets up their zone defense in the lane and rests the whole time UGA is on offense and then aggressively attacks UGA's nonaggressive defense. Could we see just a few pick and rolls or screens to open up some offense (maybe even throw in a fast break or two) and every now and then throw in a littel man defense with pressure. Its going to be a long season if the scheme doesn't change. As for coaching, I say "what coaching?".
November 16th, 2012
7:22 am
Yea, baby!
We got in some perimeter shooting practice in these warm up games against inferior teams who somehow got lucky with favorable referee calls and the fact that everybody on our team developed mononucleosis at the same time, but now it's time to BALL OUT FOR REAL PLAYAAAAAAAAAAA!!!
November 16th, 2012
8:04 am
I can't believe I wasted 2+ hours watching these losers. They could not get the ball inside the 3 point line. How can you beat anybody when the only offense you have is 3 point shots? Gonna be a long season. Same Old S**t.

November 16th, 2012
8:20 am
After watching this game last night, this may be the worst UGA basketball I've ever seen. I typically say give a coach as much time as possible, but this is bad, REAL BAD.
I'm scared we may lose to someone by a score of 95-25, or something ridiculous like that.
As far as the excuse of being young, UK and the likes are young EVERY year.
November 16th, 2012
8:33 am
Tony Cole – what in the world are you thinking? "Building up from so low" – we have only gotten worse since Fox arrived. He only reached the tourney his first year because of Trey and Travis – players he had no hand in recruiting. This team is terrible. I thought that Fox was supposed to be some kind of offensive guru? I have embarrassingly watched them them go five or more minutes without scoring and just pass the ball back and forth around the top of the key – terrible. And so many turnovers. Too many offensive possesions without even getting a shot up. I believe I could take five guys from the football team and beat the basketball team. Not sure of the situation with Fox's contract but I have seen enough.
November 16th, 2012

Mark Fox is WAY outta his league. The freakin' SUN BELT is way outta his league.
November 16th, 2012
9:00 am
Dang, didn't McGarity just tell us a couple of weeks ago that Fox was "building the BB program the right way?"
Poor shooting, horrible free throw shooting – I think this team will be worse than last year's. And last year's team was terrible.
Yuck . . .
November 16th, 2012

Indiana will be us by 40.

The Hoosiers are coming and we're going to wipe this sorry team all across the floor. Might as well not even show up for this one UGA. It's going to end early and it's going to be ugly.
November 16th, 2012
9:08 am
With all the players in the Atlanta area and UGA can't get any of them to sign. You can't take all 2 star players and think you can win. Please NO MORE foreign players on the team for a free ride. There are plenty of Americans that could use that slot.
November 16th, 2012
9:09 am
Being outrecruited for the big men in the state….go back to the drawing board…no inside game…plus not impressed w/ his persoanlity…on a flight w/ him to the Final Four one year…not very nice, more arrogant than needed to be!!!
November 16th, 2012
9:10 am
keep accepting mcgarrity's mediocrity…perno, richt and fox all would have been fired by now at lsu, bama, or florida…
November 16th, 2012
9:13 am
Neither of the Marks – Richt or Fox – has any business coaching at this level. They might do well in Division II or III, but at higher levels, neither one will ever win the big games.
In his defense, Mark Fox is a nice guy with strong ethics, and he doesn't make that much money. You can't say that about the money-grubbing Richt.
November 16th, 2012
9:22 am
If UGA doesnj't win before Christmas, there won't be many wins at all. But outside of UK, Missouri, Vandy and Florida, most SEC fans don't really care about basketball. Just a fact of life down South.
November 16th, 2012
9:23 am
Absolutely no offense other than KCP and Nemanja. The final shots of both the 2nd half and overtime were terrible because everyone is afraid to take or create a shot other than KCP. I honetly don't understand leaving Vincent and Marcus in the entire overtime period. The team responded well in the second half because the players off the bench were playing better especially Gaines and Mann. Too many times the opponents are blowing by Marcus and Vincent is not penetrating with his speed…he's just spends his time passing ball back and forth at the top of the key instead of trying to create opportunites like GR did. Well I hope they continue to improve and its good to see Donte back on the floor with JF coming off the bench at the 5. GO DAWGS!
November 16th, 2012
9:51 am
Does being responsible include practicing free throw?. Georgia probably wins last night if he had made only half of them.
November 16th, 2012
9:53 am
Face it UGA basketball fans, we are a bad team. In my oponion we have only one SEC caliber player, Caldwell-Pope, the rest of them are not. CMF is now playing with his selected players, and they are just not very good. They are a poor shooting, poor rebounding, poor defensive, poor offensive and a very poorly coached team. Hopefully CMF will be shipped out after this season and McGarity will recruit a really good coach because CMF is a far cry from being one. Remember we had our best teams with Felton recruited players. I have a friend that is a season ticket holder and he invited me to attend last nights game, I told him he would need to pay me to attend a UGA basketball game. After watching them on TV the other night where they had only scored 8 points with 5 minutes left in the 1st half against a non-SEC opponent, I knew then that these guys are nothing short of awful.
November 16th, 2012
9:54 am
Maybe we should recuit some ONE AND DONE players. I mean it as worked for a few teams. However, I wish they would stay for at least two years.
November 16th, 2012
9:57 am
I agree with VADAWG. Should have played more of Gaines, Mann and Morris. Thornton and Williams just aren't cutting it.
November 16th, 2012

November 16th, 2012
10:31 am
Hopefully Donte Williams' game will pick up, cause we need somebody to do some rebounding and provide an 'inside presence'. Regardless, they've looked terrible and if they don't 'pick it up', then there's little chance Mark Fox will be with us much longer. Hope he will be cause it will mean he's gotten through to the kids and they've started to play basketball. What concerns me most – and I'm as guilty as anybody – is that the 'chicken and egg' thing is floundering. What I mean is that you have to have good players, being competitive, and winning in order to draw a crowd…and you have to have enthusiastic crowd support in order to get these kids to play at the top of their games. As it is, all those empty seats have to be a turn off to the kids, not to mention any prospective recruit in attendance or watching on TV. It's really sad to see.
November 16th, 2012
10:32 am
You're right, Tony. Brad Stevens has turned down several interviews as he bides his time waiting for his dream job to open up: head coach at the University of Georgia. But if that doesn't work out, perhaps Rick Pitino will come to Athens.
November 16th, 2012
10:44 am
AD McGarity is "pleased" with the direction CMF has the basketball program headed. Now that is plum scary!
November 16th, 2012
10:45 am
In my opinion, what UGA needs to look for if Fox doesn't work out is an experienced coach with a proven track record in recruiting who is on the back side of his career and wants to retire near a college town, without the pressure of an unrealistic fan base at a "basketball school". The best UGA teams were with Hugh Durham (who had taken FSU to a final four) and Jim Harrick (who had won it all at UCLA). Harrick would have been great if he hadn't been such a cheat – he really could coach.
With young up-and-comers, one of two things is going to happen. If they can recruit and know what to do with talent (Tubby), they will leave for a place that takes hoops more seriously. If they can't recruit (Felton, and maybe Fox), they can't compete even if they can coach. I believe Felton and Fox wouldn't have gotten the job if they couldn't coach – they just can't get enough good players to come to Athens. At least UGA was in the running with Robert Carter and Tony Parker, so maybe Fox will start landing a few.

We might be the most boring team in basketball. hard to watch this team play. why would anyone want to go watch the game.
November 16th, 2012
11:36 am
Please put Vincent " dribbles too damn much" Williams, on the bench and play the freshman point guard. Fox should have played Cannon more in the second half because he was the only big man who hustled on offense and defense. The senior class is weak on this team, and Caldwell-Pope is as good as gone.
November 16th, 2012
11:39 am
Man come on i was really looking foward to this Bball season i guess i'll have to waite till next year.With the talent we have combined with the 2 loses FIRE THIS GUY NOW so a new coach can maybe salvage som of this season.

If this offense is pass around the perimeter for 30 seconds and shoot a 30 footer, it is going to be a long year. Marcus Thornton acts like he has never been on a court before. How much longer does he even get to play? I don't know if UGA basketball will ever be relevant.
November 16th, 2012
11:59 am
Both Felton and Fox coached at lower leveled d-1 programs before they came to UGA so it's not surprise to me that the program has collapsed to the state it's in. The recruiting reflects their inability to both find and claim high level talent. Fox came from the other side of the country with no connections or ties to the southeast. It's no surprise that he gets only the leftovers. Bottom line – once again is that Fox is not the guy. Other schools can have great football and basketball programs and there is no excuse in UGA not being able to at least compete in basketball. They are not even competing against D-1 aa level programs. Fox may be a great guy but that's not the point. He's out of his league with bringing talent to UGA and you can only coach so much out of lesser players. It's boring, predictable and unacceptable to watch this year after year.
November 16th, 2012
12:03 pm
Im really starting not to buy into this Mark Fox guy. He opened his can of "we are deeper and more experienced team this year" woop a$$ way too soon. Georgia doesnt lose to these types of programs. I cant imagine what Indiana is gonna do to this team. Mark Fox, if youre serious about Georgia hoops, youve got to be eat up with stomach ulcers bout now!
November 16th, 2012
12:22 pm
I agree with you Jerry. I think Fox needs to approach this team as a football coach. Whoever is performing the best should earn the starting role. (e.g. Gurley as the no.1 RB but was no.2 or 3 at the beginning of the season) I have no idea why he plays Marcus Thornton. The kid looks lost out there. Dixon looked helpless as well in setting high picks for the guards in their offense against the 3-2..
Morris looked great in the first half. He got the team moving with his energy on defense. Fox didn't even play him in the second half. What the heck? Cannon draws a charge and Thornton and Floverus watch the players shoot the ball. Cannon hardly plays in the second half. Why Fox plays Floverus or Thornton instead of Cannon is beyond my understanding. Kenny Gaines looked great on defense and Brantley plays more than him.
One of the biggest things that bothers me is that the team is constantly looking over at the bench for each offensive set. I really think the players are clueless out there on offense. I am not talking about the freshmen. Dixon, Williams, Thornton, Floverus and the others are CONSTANTLY getting direction off the bench. If you have been playing for FOX for two years, you should know what to do.
Coach Fox needs to start playing the freshmen now with Cannon and KCP. He needs to make the upper classmen earn the right to play and not make them feel like they are entitled to play. As a Duke fan, I remember one year in which the upper classmen players were playing terribly. Coach K pulled them all and put in the scrubs. The starters had to watch them play for like 5 minurtes. At the end of the five minutes all of the starters RAN to the table to check back in. The message was loud and clear. The players woke up and they came back and won. I think Fox needs to get real with his starters. Either show up or get out. He needs to start building on talent and not on entitlements to these lackadasical players. Go Dawgs!
November 16th, 2012
12:25 pm
Absolutely no post play last night. 1-3-1 defense shut down UGA all night. Southern Miss was more physical and played tougher defense.
GA looks soft other than KCP. Somebody needs to call them out. Where's Shawn Williams?

Comments about Baudville Fun Pin Packs - Birthday Assortment:
With over 100 people in our group we were spending over $350 a year and 28 hours of my time to get each person a Mylar Balloon. Now, I have a sufficient supply in my desk, so if my day is too hectic, the appropriate Manager can grab one for the gathering to acknowledge the birthday person! You provided the perfect solution with 5 different designs per package! The person can wear it as long as they want, display it at their desk or pass it on to a child / grandchild!
Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

Defense stocks under the gun
Most boast appealing dividends and tempting valuations. But how safe are those yields, and can earnings be sustained?
The fiscal cliff is one of those phrases that have become all too familiar in recent months as pundits agonize about what might follow if Congress fails to do something about tax cuts enacted in 2001 and 2003 scheduled to expire on New Year's Eve, and $1.2 trillion in budget cuts that automatically take effect the same day.
Wrangling over how to address it hits pretty much every hot button on both sides of the aisle. What should government spend its resources on: health care or defense? Should Congress raise taxes on the country's wealthiest citizens or lower them? No wonder our elected politicians seem as far away as ever from agreeing on how to deal with the consequences of the Budget Control Act of 2011, which mandated future spending cuts as the price of raising the U.S. government's debt ceiling.
The nonpartisan Congressional Budget Office has warned that a failure to act in what is likely to be a short legislative session between the early November elections and the end of the year could spell disaster, pushing the economy back into recession. Certainly, economists seem to agree that the result would be a $600 billion drag on the economy next year.
Now Morningstar has again reminded us of the potential impact of these cuts on the defense industry -- and investors who own the sector. Defense has been clearly identified as a target for spending cuts -- $500 billion of that $1.2 trillion -- and companies have been scrambling to reinvent themselves or prepare for what might lie ahead, even as they try to whip up pressure on legislators.
Lockheed Martin (LMT), for instance, has warned that it could be forced to lay off half or more of its 100,000 employees if mandatory spending cuts go through; certainly, most defense contractors already are looking for ways to trim their workforce. That's hardly helpful at a time when the Fed has ventured into unexplored waters in hopes of reducing the still unacceptably high unemployment rate.
Morningstar's analyst, Neal Dihora, warned in a note published Wednesday that in spite of the threat of these large-scale cutbacks in military spending, which has been looming overhead for more than a year, the low valuations of many large defense stocks still don't reflect the full potential impact of the fiscal cliff. "We remain concerned that should Congress fail to avert the upcoming cuts, the businesses will suffer sales and operating profit declines," he noted.
Sure, most of these stocks boast appealing dividend yields and tempting valuations -- Lockheed Martin, for instance, boasts a hefty 4.34% yield, while trading at merely 10.8 times trailing 12-month earnings -- but in the event of Congressional inaction, the question becomes how safe those dividends would look and whether the earnings underlying those valuations can be sustained.
Defense contractors aren't sitting idly by, of course. "We will acquire, we will divest, we will reshape, we will re-portfolio as we need to," Jay Johnson, the CEO of General Dynamics (GD), is reported to have told a conference last week. The company has put its money where its mouth is, spending $360 million in cash to acquire Force Protection, a South Carolina business that makes armored vehicles designed to protect occupants from land mines, and more recently agreeing to purchase Fidelis Security Systems, a cybersecurity company.
General Dynamics -- which trades at an even lower valuation than Lockheed Martin, 9.64 times trailing earnings, and offers at 3.07% yield -- is seen as one of the most heavily exposed to spending cutbacks, given that is business is most likely to be hit by the withdrawal of U.S. forces from both Iraq and Afghanistan. It already is seeing its earnings slump; its second quarter profits slid 2.9% and the company trimmed its earnings forecast for the fiscal year as its largest business division -- information systems and technology -- reported a 10% drop in revenue and a 24% plunge in operating earnings.
Investors who own defense stocks may want to brace themselves for more such blows from companies like General Dynamics, Northrop Grumman (NOC) and Lockheed Martin, all of which generated more than 20% of their earnings from information technology services to the military. These, Morningstar's Dihora argues, ""are more negatively affected (by cutbacks) than long-cycle businesses such as shipbuilding or aircraft acquisition. In periods of budgetary inconsistencies, purchasers have limited ability to procure services for fear of lack of funds, and they begin to prioritize projects."
Few members of Congress will want to be seen as starving the country's national defense programs of the resources they require, particularly as geopolitical tensions in the Middle East and Iran remain at such a high level. So far, however, that doesn't seem to have helped them reach any kind of agreement on how to implement budget cuts in such a way as to avoid the kind of mandatory, across-the-board cuts referred to as "sequestration" that would be the consequence of toppling over the fiscal cliff.
What is very possible is that Congress will reach a last-ditch agreement to push that deadline further out. Don't take that as a signal to jump back into discount-priced defense stocks, however. Uncertainty -- commonly referred to in the markets as a "lack of visibility" -- is a deadly enemy at the best of times, and simply postponing the ferocious (albeit bloodless) Congressional battles over the budget won't resolve that uncertainty for defense companies and their investors. And however skillful management teams have been at preparing for budgetary Armageddon -- whether they are cutting back or, like General Dynamics, making strategic acquisitions -- the benefits of these strategies won't pay off rapidly enough to offset the shock of the forced cuts.
The good news -- and there is some of it out there, albeit in the dim and distant future -- is that if Congress miraculously manages to reach an accord on how budget cuts will take place, eventually the current panic may well end up pushing many of the largest defense contractors into becoming more streamlined and efficient businesses – and thus more appealing investments. But this is the wrong time to be hunting for bargains in the group based on that kind of optimistic assessment of the future. Defense stocks right now demand that investors take a more, well, defensive position.

This fun little pin was given to me by my mother. She couldn't remember if it was a gift or she bought it herself. His whiskers are lost on one side but he is still cute and sparkly. The pin resembles items done both by Sherman and Warner but it has no markings and the back is not enclosed. He has been hanging with me for a long time. Believe this is from very early 60s.

AA2A college: University of Sunderland
Year (eg: 2006-07): 2011-12
Skills: New Media Art, photography, Installation art, cold-working, glass-blowing, stained glass, architectural glass
Contact email: email@example.com
Website: http://www.facebook.com/Emer.Lynch.Glass
More artists images: http://www.hellergallery.com/exhibits/090010-postglass/
About me:
Over the past couple of years I have experimented with flat glass as a medium of expressing observations from my habitat – for example; the effects that buildings have on light and the effects that urban habitats have on me. I feel that the Architectural Glass department at the University of Sunderland offers a unique environment which would allow me to develop and make a series of work both conceptually and technically strong. I will use library research, photography, 3D experimental paper models and drawings, in combination with the facilities available at Sunderland, to drive and develop new work even further.
I believe that when opportunities such AA2A are offered they should be seized and savoured. The University of Sunderland holds so much potential for me to develop both my work in glass and my professionalism as an artist. What I currently lack is the knowledge of how to produce, manage and install larger works in glass. There are a limited number of places where this can be learned but the University of Sunderland has established a great reputation in this field. I hope to expand my knowledge about large scale glass art through being in the environment of the Architectural Glass department and learning and observing from the students and staff there.
My main objectives in applying to AA2A are to elevate my practice and to advance my professionalism as an artist. I wish to develop and complete a comprehensive body of high quality work. These pieces, when photographed to a high standard, will substantially progress my portfolio. Also, I wish to build on my experiences of professional roles by taking on central tasks such as speaker for artist talks and mentor when communicating with students in the department.

Former Spokane Indians Carlos Beltron and Chris Davis were both selected as starters for the MLB All-Star game on Tuesday, July 16. Mariners pitchers Felix Hernandez and Hisashi Iwakuma were both selected, as well.
Davis, a first baseman for the Baltimore Orioles, was the top vote-getter with 8,272,243. Davis is having a breakout season and leads the Majors with 33 home runs. He's second in average (.324) and runs batted in (85).
Beltron, who plays right field for the St. Louis Cardinals, will be appearing in his eighth All-Star Game.
It is Felix Hernandez's fourth All-Star Game selection. The Mariners' ace is 8-4 with a 2.69 ERA (second best in the AL). It is Iwakuma's first selection in just his second MLB season. Iwakuma was a three-time All-Star in Japan. The right-hander is 7-4 with a league best 2.60 ERA
In their respective games today Carlos Beltron had an RBI in a 5-4 win over the Miami Marlins and Chris Davis had one home run in a 4-5 loss to the New York Yankees.
It was also a good day at the plate for former Spokane Indian Taylor Teagarden, who had an RBI in a 5-4 loss to the New York Yankees.

Tougaloo, MS-The Lady Bulldogs' volleyball team hosted the Devilettes of Mississippi Valley State University here today in the Dawg Pound. The Lady Bulldogs fell short to the Devilettes in four sets (25-18, 23-25, 18-25, 14-25) to drop to 17-9 on the season.
After losing a tough one to Spring Hill on yesterday, the Lady Bulldogs were looking to rebound with a victory over the Devilettes today. The Lady Bulldogs would look good in the beginning, jumping out to an early lead over the Devilettes and cruising to a 25-18 set win. In set two, the Devilettes would turn up the heat. The Lady Bulldogs would trail the Devilettes, but would fight back to tie the game at 23. The Devilettes would score off a penalty on the Lady Bulldogs and would take the set 25-23 with a set point kill. In set three, the Lady Bulldogs would try to bounce back, but the Devilettes blocking game would be too strong for the Lady Bulldogs and the Devilettes would go up 2-1 with a 25-18 set win. The Lady Bulldogs would try to tie the match at 2-2 in set four, but the Lady Bulldogs would fall apart and the Devilettes would capitalize and take the set 25-14 and take the win from the Lady Bulldogs.
The Lady Bulldogs were led by Dayane Souza, who finished with 16 kills and 23 digs. Marcella Oliveira followed with 14 kills and 12 digs and Briana Murphy chipped in 5 kills and 12 blocks. Mariana Candelot added 33 assists. The Lady Bulldogs will be back in action on Tuesday, October 23rd as they travel cross town to play former GCAC foe Belhaven University. Game time is set for 7:00 P.M.

A Warwick police officer was taken to the hospital on Saturday after he was attacked by a pit bull during a call.
Around ten o'clock Officer Dan O'Connell was called to a home on Pequot Avenue in Warwick for a report of a domestic disturbance. Officer O'Connell was in the process of restraining the homeowner, Sean Sanita, in the front yard, when Sanita's pit bull escaped from the home and went on the attack.
"The dog immediately ran over to his owner who was on the ground and then jumped up on the cop twice," said a neighbor who declined to give her name. "The cop immediately pulled out his gun and started shooting."
Officer O'Connell suffered bites to his hip and ankle area and was taken to the hospital for treatment, but released later Saturday.
Sanita was arrested for obstruction and disorderly conduct.
The pit bull suffered minor gunshot wounds and was taken to the Warwick Animal Hospital for treatment. Police say the dog will be held at a local shelter pending a vicious animal hearing.

Stephanie Cornbrooks, 25, has a "classy but fun" sense of style. "I always add a pop of color because life can be so dull sometimes," the Bel Air resident said. We absolutely agree. When we spotted the litigation paralegal for Smith, Gildea & Schmidt, we loved her color block dress, which was from Ann Taylor Loft. Her sandals were from American Eagle. Her earrings and bracelet were from Stella and Dot. Her watch was Michael Kors. Her rings were from Littman Jewelers. Her husband gave her the brown tote by Michael Kors as a present. "Comfort and confidence are the keys to great style," she said.

LANSING (WKZO) -- Secretary of State Ruth Johnson says she's not happy about it but the state must seek legal action against the city of Troy.
In November, voters recalled Mayor Janice Daniels. State officials say that according to state law that means a special election must be held to name a replacement. The Troy City Council, however, says that Mayor Pro Tem Dan Slater should remain in the post until next fall's regular election.
Secretary Johnson says that she's disappointed that city officials have chosen this route. "Unfortunately, we now must seek a legal remedy to uphold state election and recall law. Our position all along has been that state law requires an election in this situation," says Johnson. "Troy residents have the right to choose the city's mayor in February, and the attorney general and I will see that that happens."

LOUISVILLE, Ky. (WHAS11) -- It is the busiest time of year for UPS and FedEx with millions of deliveries being made every day. However it is also a busy time for thieves who are taking packages right off porches.
Imagine waiting for a package that never seems to arrive, instead it is snatched by thieves. It would have anyone saying "Bah, humbug!"
"Crimes of opportunity in terms of theft are on the rise," Dwight Mitchell with Louisville Metro Police said.
"I think it's bad because kids won't get gifts some thug is stealing their presents," Louisville resident, Sally Fields said.
"I think it's horrible that anybody can be that inconsiderate to take somebody's gifts that are probably for children," Loriann Felmey said.
There is video circulating of a UPS driver in Las Vegas dropping off packages. A few minutes later, a woman snatches the delivery. More surveillance video captures the same problem. A holiday delivery ruined by a Grinch making a clean getaway.
UPS says there are ways to help prevent yourself from being the target this holiday season.
Mike Mangeot with UPS said you can coordinate your delivery time and buy excess value coverage for things worth $100 up to $50,000.
"They can also sign up for signature required service for a small fee which means you would have to sign for a package before we leave it at your house," Mangeot said.
UPS will deliver more than 28 million packages on Peak Day, December 20. That is equal to 300 packages per second.
With more deliveries from Louisville to around the world, it is a good idea to set up a security camera and keep your receipts.
The company you ordered from may reimburse you so you are not left without gifts under the tree.

SHANGHAI—China's stock market slumped 3% on Thursday, its biggest drop in more than a year, as investors worried about a potential fresh crackdown on the country's rebounding property sector and about signs of tighter monetary conditions at home and abroad.
Other Asian markets also declined in a global selloff that spread after minutes from the latest Federal Reserve meeting indicated the U.S. central bank might wind down its recent stimulus efforts sooner than expected.
Investors watching at a brokerage house in Fuyang Thursday as the benchmark Shanghai Composite index took its biggest fall in 15 months Reuters
In China, stocks have been surging since December on signs of improving economic growth, including higher property prices that lie at the heart of the economy. But investors were spooked after China's cabinet on Wednesday repeated its pledge to use a number of measures, including home-purchase limits and higher down-payment requirements, to clamp down on real-estate speculation and curb price increases. The cabinet also referred to a possible expansion of a real-estate tax, which is currently being tried in two cities, to additional locations, though it gave no details.
Domestic housing prices and sales have rebounded in recent months, stoking fears of resurgent inflation that could derail the economic recovery under way following last year's slowdown.
"With the overseas markets weak, investors are using the latest reiteration of property policy tightening by Beijing as an excuse to lock in profits," said Huang Cendong, an analyst at Tebon Securities.
The benchmark Shanghai Composite Index dropped 71.23 points to 2325.95, its lowest level since Jan. 25 and its largest single-day decline in percentage terms since Nov. 30, 2011. The selloff was across the board, ranging from major blue chips such as banks and brokerage firms to smaller metal producers and cement makers.
Further dampening the mood was the Chinese central bank's withdrawal of cash this week from the banking system as it tries to hold down inflation in the face of rising housing prices and persistently high commodity prices. The People's Bank of China was set to drain a net 910 billion yuan ($146 billion) through its regular open-market operations, marking its biggest single-week liquidity withdrawal ever, traders participating in the operation said Thursday.
Despite the selloff in Chinese shares, analysts said they remain generally upbeat about the market's medium-term outlook, citing expectations for faster economic growth this year as the new leadership in Beijing ramps up investment in infrastructure and services as part of a huge urbanization campaign. China's economic growth rate is widely expected to exceed 8% this year, after coming in at 7.8% in 2012.
Shanghai's stock declines Thursday had a knock-on effect in Hong Kong, where the Hang Seng Index lost 1.7% to 22906.67 as Chinese banks took heavy losses.

The UTEP volleyball program announces the addition of Francquee Acosta (El Paso, Texas) and Xitlali Herrera (Júarez, México) to the 2011 volleyball team.
"During recruitment, we knew they would fit in with the way our team played," said head coach Ken Murphy. "Our personalities mesh very well and they work hard the way we work hard. It has been real easy and good for us."
Acosta, a 5'11'' outside hitter from Americas High School, accumulated 330 kills, 163 digs, 66 blocks and 43 aces as a senior. In 2010, she was named to the El Paso Times All-District 1-5A first team while earning all-state honorable mention honors. The El Paso native, concluded her club experience with the El Paso Wildfire where she participated in four consecutive Junior Olympic National Tournaments.
Herrera is a sophomore transfer from Colegio de Bachilleres. The Júarez native represented México at the FIVB, NORCECA and Fédération Internationale de Volleyball World Tour posting seven top-10 finishes. Herrera was selected to the Campeonato Intercontinental Juvenil Sub 20 three times.
"The team is very inclusive and I think we try to have a culture here where all these kinds of personalities fit very well and I think they just add one more dimension to us," said Murphy. "It has been fun coaching them and seeing our team grow with them on the court."

The Sookie Stackhouse Mysteries, also known as the Southern Vampire Series, are a series of best-selling novels by Charlaine Harris. They take place mostly in and around the town of Bon Temps, Louisiana, and are written with a distinctly old school Southern Flavor, including some of the consequences of living in that part of the country.The main character, and the one from whose point of view the stories are told, is Sookie Stackhouse, a very pretty waitress at a popular bar in town, who is also a telepath. Sookie's world is one where, two years before the first book's story begins, the Vampires came forward, introduced themselves to the world at large, and began walking among regular people. Sookie's boyfriend Bill is a vampire, so chosen because she cannot read his mind and thus finds it comforting to be around him. Due to the vampires turning up in Bon Temps, murder soon follows, and Sookie's relationship with Bill and the politics thereof causes her to get mixed up in solving the mysteries.An HBO series called True Blood has been made (very loosely) based on the books.
Books and short stories in the series are as follows:
