GRAND JUNCTION, Colo. – The second-ranked Colorado Mesa women's basketball extended their school record winning streak and home winning streak on Friday night by defeating the New Mexico Highlands Cowgirls, 71-52, in front of more than 1,000 fans in Brownson Arena.
The Mavericks have now won 33 consecutive home games dating back to the 2011-2012 season and have won their first 22 games this season.
CMU shot 46 percent (24-of-52) from the field while holding Highlands to just 32 percent (18-of-55) from the field and 44 percent (8-of-18) from the free-throw line. The Mavericks outrebounded the Cowgirls 43-32 and scored 15 second chance points to NMHU's 11.
Senior Sharaya Selsor led the way with a game-high 29 points, including 12-of-13 from the free-throw line. Selsor moves into the top ten on the all-time scoring list with 1,295 points (ninth place) moving ahead of Mandy Miller. She also dished out three assists, grabbed five rebounds and pulled in three steals.
Aubry Boehme added 12 points on 5-of-8 shooting.
New Mexico Highlands was led by Giulian Simioni's 10 points.
With a win tomorrow night, Colorado Mesa will have clinched at least a tie of the RMAC Championship game. A win and a CSU-Pueblo loss would give the Mavericks the outright title on Saturday night.
The Mavericks will play host to Western New Mexico tomorrow night in Brownson Arena. The tip is set for 5:30pm.
The Men also def. New Mexico Highlands Friday night, 97-80.

Tonight the Bellator Heavyweight title is on the line when Alexander Volkov fights Vitaly Minakov in the co-main event of the evening. Minakov is an undefeated 12-0 prospect looking to become the new Bellator champion. He will have a stiff test against the savvy striker that is the Bellator Heavyweight champion, Alexander Volkov. Volkov has reeled off 10 straight victories on his way to becoming the champion. The winner of this fight will fight recent Heavyweight tournament winner, Cheick Kongo, in the near future.
Round 1: They touch gloves to start. Minakov misses two takedowns early and eats a few jabs and a push kick from Volkov. Minakov lands a big knee and elbow on the fence. Minakov working the body. Minakov goes for a belly to belly suplex, but Volkov lands right on top of him. Minakov with a quick sweep and he is in Volkov's guard. Minakov is landing elbows over and over here. Shoulder strikes as well from Minakov. Minakov is warned to keep busy, and the ref stands them up. Volkov with a push kick and a nice combination. HUGE UPPERCUT FROM MINAKOV! Volkov is absolutely rocked and Minakov is swarming! Thunderous blows landing over and over for Minakov and referee Dan Miragliotta stops the fight. Volkov looked to recover, but Minakov was landing a lot of shots. Not a bad stoppage, but maybe a tad bit early. Vitaly Minakov is the new Bellator Heavyweight champion.

Evan Kappatos and Brian Sheng get to play one more high school football game together.
The duo were selected to the Long Island squad of the 15th annual United Healthcare Empire Challenge high school football all-star game.
Kappatos had 106 tackles, two sacks and two interceptions for the Braves en route to winning his as Nassau's top linebacker. Sheng was a stout defensive tackle. Both Kappatos and Sheng are headed to Princeton.
The top 100 football players from around the Island and New York City were selected to play in the game, which will kick off June 19 at 7 p.m. at Hofstra's Shuart Stadium.
The game is the brainchild of former NFL star and East Islip native Boomer Esiason. It benefits the Boomer Esiason Foundation in its fight against cystic fibrosis, contributes to the Gunnar H. Esiason Endowed Scholarship Fund at Hofstra, and supports youth and high school football in the New York metropolitan area.
MSG Varsity will broadcast live coverage of the game in HD (TV-14) and on MSGVarsity.com.

Grand Theft Auto. Set Twenty Minutes into the Future in an unknown city known as "Anywhere City", each zone is controlled by numerous gangs and the powerful Zaibatsu Corporation. The player controls the hoodlum "Claude Speed" as he plays all sides to get the money to leave the city.Grand Theft Auto 2 took the top-down free roaming gameplay of its predecessor and made several improvements: introducing the ability to save, the law enforcement hierarchy present in all future installments, and a "respect" system regarding other gangs and the missions they make available. The city is also huge, with a distinctive look and feel for each neighborhood (unlike the recycled textures of the previous game).Mostly remembered for its FMV intro featuring Claude performing all sorts of tricks from the game, such as respraying his car and getting shot (presumably to no lasting effect). Most of the various gangs also make an appearance: the Rednecks, Yakuza, a captive Krishna, a couple of Zaibatsu spooks, and a Russian janitor-cum-hitman. The movie is set in New York (the original World Trade Center is visible), foreshadowing GTA3's Liberty City locale.Rockstar has made the game available for free download here.

Ojochal Long Term Vacation Rentals(11)

Recent Ojochal Reviews
Felt like a home away from home!
Villa Tranquila is a very comfortable house in an idyllic location. We are a family of 4 and took my parents and had plenty of room. It is off the beaten path and away from crowds so it was a very restful place to be. We all enjoyed cooling off in the pool after being out for the day. Although it was hot the house has fans everywhere and felt comfortable since it is at a high elevation. Alan was very helpful with his directions and tips. We recommend having a 4 wheel drive car as the road to the house is unpaved and it takes about 15 minutes to get up the hill from the main paved road. We enjoyed the French bakery at the bottom of the hill and highly recommend the Indonesian restaurant up the road called Ylang Ylang. Cinco Ventanas beach is very close by and a beautiful beach to visit. Costa Rica is a beautiful country and I highly recommend visiting it. Nancy from Georgia
Peaceful Mountain Jungle Wildlife Sunset vacation
This is our second trip to Costa Rica and to this house- once just wasn't enough after experiencing the most relaxing vacation with unbeatable views, wildlife at your doorstep, an impeccably designed, built and furnished home. The pictures of the house are right on, if not even understating how amazing it is in person. The new palapa is great for morning coffee and bird watching, a great addition to an already ideal spot! The pool is unbeatable, it is hard to imagine a reason to leave the house, but if you do, you won't regret it. The beaches are great, ventanas and Leonora beach club, amazing restaurants (citrus & exotica) and plenty of activities if you want them (Corcovado rainforest tour, OSA zip lining, horse rides). Did I mention the daily toucans & howler monkeys at the house and the ocelot we saw tonight on our way home from dinner? Amazing! The year rounders here on the mountain, the Hamilton's, are great should you need anything, and the owners are also great! Renting a car locally is a must, a rugged manual preferably, and getting here from San Jose is a decent trek (hire a driver!) but it is all so worth it! Hopefully this won't be our last visit to this magical hidden gem in a still un-touristy part of CR!
Spacious, private and Great Ojochal Location!
My husband and I have travelled extensively through Costa Rica since the early '90's. We discovered Ojochal 4 years ago and have returned every winter to escape the cold in Canada. We always rent on "Finca Maranon" where this house is located due to the beauty of the location and the proximity to the beautiful, practically deserted beaches nearby. This house is also located close to many fabulous restaurants which rival anything I've tried in North America. The house is absolutely gorgeous. There are 3 bedrooms in total-- 2 bedrooms, each with en suite on the ground level--perfect for 2 couples or a family. But the crowning jewel is the newly constructed master suite upstairs with en suite and private, spacious deck overlooking the jungle. The bedroom has huge windows on 3 sides taking in the most stunning mountain and jungle views --not in my wildest dreams could I have asked for a more perfect space to greet the morning or fall into a restful slumber at night. The pool is lovely, and the gazebo, set across the lawn, offers glorious mountain views and privacy away from others, should you need it. On a final note, I am a walker and enjoyed an early morning walk into the village of Ojochal daily. What a beautiful road leading down from the house--ferns dripping down the side embankments, delphinium blue morpho butterflies flitting by and the most amazing birdsong!! It doesn't get closer to paradise than this!!! We will return!!!

hydrilla, (Hydrilla verticillata), submerged aquatic plant that is the sole member of the genus Hydrilla in the frog's-bit family (Hydrocharitaceae). Hydrilla is native to central Europe, Asia, and Australia and was brought to North America in the 1950s, where it has become a troublesome aquatic weed in lakes, streams, and reservoirs. It has long, slender stems that grow to several feet in length and form tangled carpets of vegetation beneath the water surface. Each stem bears 3 to 8 lance-shaped or oblong leaves that are 0.6–0.8 cm (0.25–0.3 inch) long and are borne in whorls. The flowers are tiny, white, and unisexual. Hydrilla is a fast-growing, hardy weed that has invaded numerous bodies of freshwater in the southern United States, destroying fish populations and clogging the intake valves of power plants and water installations.

Vote of the week: Will you use Orlando's high-speed train to get from the airport to the theme parks?
Written by Robert Niles
I'd like to get a feel for how popular President Obama's proposed high-speed rail line in Central Florida might be with Orlando visitors.Tweet
The proposed route would run from the Orlando International Airport over to the Orange County Convention Center, then down I-4 to Tampa. The route would take the train past all the Central Florida theme park resorts, though you'd need to take shuttles from the various stops to the parks and their nearby hotels. (The longest haul would be from the Lakeland stop to Legoland Florida - which would likely be 30 minutes or more. Then again, I've been stuck in International Drive traffic before that's made the trip from the Convention Center to Universal nearly that long....)
How do you get to your destination from the airport when you visit Orlando? And would you be likely to switch to the high-speed train once it's available? Proponents estimate that the trip from the airport to Tampa would take 45-50 minutes, if that gives you a feel for the travel time involved. Let's leave cost out of the equation for the moment; assume that the fare would be reasonable for the service provided.
If you now use hotel or park shuttles, such as Disney's Magical Express, and would likely continue using that in the future, select that option. If you're a rental car customer and plan to stay that way, pick that. But if you're willing to switch from those options, let us know. (I've added a fifth option for folks who live in Orlando, or have family or friends who pick them up at the airport. Update: forgot about those who drive down. Those can pick the fifth option, or sit this one out. Readers who don't visit Orlando can sit this vote out.)
The rail line's going in because (a) Obama needs to get unemployment down and construction projects such as this employ a lot of people, (b) the I-4 corridor has been a key swing vote region in the past two Presidential elections and is getting hammered by unemployment in this recession, and (c) the area's flooded with tourists in rental cars and if you're trying to get people to switch from cars to rail, it's a lot easier to get someone to give up a rental car for a week on vacation than to get them to stop driving their personal cars to and from work everyday.
The numbers for the first and second options in the vote should give us a sense, at least among Theme Park Insider readers, how many are willing to make that switch. The third and fourth numbers will show us how much people might switch from existing road-based mass transit to rail.
Let's hear in the comments what you would like to see from this project, and how parks should work with it, if at all.
Once again, thanks for reading Theme Park Insider, and have a great weekend!
Readers' Opinions
From James Rao on January 29, 2010 at 4:43 PM
I always drive to Orlando... getting there is part of the fun!
From Michael Owen on January 29, 2010 at 4:50 PM
Universal and SeaWorld have always tried hard to find ways to transport guest staying on Disney World property to their parks and it shows just how important a good transportation system is.
A high-speed rail network connecting Orlando's major tourist destinations to the airport would be fantastic, especially for those visitors who can't afford, or who do not want to be burdened with, a rental car.
I'll certainly be using this when it's up and running.
From Mike K on January 29, 2010 at 5:15 PM
As a resident of Orlando I think overall it is good. Putting many things aside, such as fares and train schedule, it does have potential. It would be great for residents traveling to the airport, as it would be easier to have a friend drive to a rail station than to the airport. As far as tourism, as long as enough infrastructure was built around the stations for transportation, I feel it would be very successful.
From Anthony Murphy on January 29, 2010 at 5:25 PM
I usually get a car, but this option might not be too bad. It would be good to go somehow to all the parks without having to move or get a car. Good idea for all of us under 25 who would have a tough time getting rentals.

I am 24 years old, I am from the Tampa area, but live in Orlando (Universal Studios Area) for school. I know my family will use the train to get from Tampa to WDW(and to see me), as well as it will be a lot easier to travel home. I am really excited to see it go up!
From 22.214.171.124 on January 30, 2010 at 9:06 AM
Some of the readers here may like the idea of a high-speed train connecting Tampa with Orlando. But is it really a high-speed train? In France and Japan, the bullet trains average 170 to 180 miles per hour.
The closest thing we currently have to a bullet train in the U.S. is Amtrak's Acela line, which connects Washington with Boston. Although designed to run faster, Acela's top cruising speed is 130 mph, but that's only on two short stretchs in Rhode Island and Massachusetts; the train's average speed is 80 mph.
With so many stops between Tampa and Orlando, it's hard to imagine Florida's high-speed train will exceed Acela's average speed. In other words, the train isn't going to get you to Disney World much faster than your rental car.
From Tony Duda on January 30, 2010 at 4:07 PM
As I wrote in an earlier comment, right now it costs me about $25 in gas for the round trip drive to Orlando from my area near the Gulf and driving it takes about 2 hours or less each way. I can never see the new high speed train being less than that in money or time. The Tampa Bay area has NO feeder rail lines to the proposed Ybor City end point (which is about 35 miles from my house), only buses that have to go through the same congested roads that cars do. I don't see how a high speed train can be an improvement to what we do now. I-4 has almost been completely redone to make it a smooth transit route between Tampa and Orlando.
From Robert OGrosky on January 30, 2010 at 8:25 PM
Another waste of federal tax payer dollars!!!!!
If Orlando/Tampa Bay want high speed rail then these cities and the state of Florida should pay for it, and not burden the cost of this on taxpayers from across the country.

When we fly, we will use Disney's Magical Express. Sure, we're stuck on Disney property, unless we rent a car, or take a taxi. For me, it's utterly relaxing letting somebody else drive and take me where I want to go. I look forward to this new train though, it might mean we take a day trip to Busch Gardens or Universal since it will be all the quicker, and theoretically, easier.
I would guess that when this rail line goes live, Disney will likely provide guests access to it via their packages, and maybe even phase out Magical Express. The problem with this new rail line though, is like I pointed out, more guests might decide to take a day trip to Busch or Universal or any of the other area attractions. So, while it's a plus for Disney in having a stop right on property, it could also benefit their competitors just as well. Because, while it makes it quicker and easier to get to Disney, it also makes it quicker and easier to get to other places as well.

Make no mistake, without a system of subway like transportation, which is not happening, the rail way is doomed to low ridership and government bailouts. IOW you are going to pay for this if you ride it or not.
From Doug Kelley on January 31, 2010 at 12:56 PM
I fly in and take Disney transpo (or a cab) from there. I think the train would be a nice option--whatever gets me to my hotel fastest! Wish they would put something similar in Vegas!
From 22.214.171.124 on January 31, 2010 at 3:00 PM
Since I actually fly into Charlotte to vist my Anut and rent a car there; I plan on driving to FL. I tend to stop at the little roadside stuff as I travel and that isn't an option when one takes the train.
From 18.104.22.168 on January 31, 2010 at 3:29 PM
I just spent six weeks commuting to St. Pete for a job and would happily take the train over their instead of paying $28 in gas every day, spending 3 to 4 hours on the commute and wearing out my car.
That said the train needs to come downtown to the Lynx station and not just stop in tourista-land or the airport - it needs to be convenient to the locals, not just airplane arriving touristas.

From 184.108.40.206 on January 31, 2010 at 6:37 PM
I would definitely use the rail link, as a foreign tourist I would prefer this to renting a car.
From 22.214.171.124 on February 1, 2010 at 11:10 AM
I think the High Speed Train is important and will bring a lot of positives to Central Florida. I was interested in the comment about it being the Obama Administration's desire for jobs & votes - we've only been in FL for two months, but I thought this type of train had been on the drawing board for several years, meaning prior to Mr. Obama. Whomever brought it to the board, its a great idea. We've traveled here many times over the years, and now live here - and as a travel writer, I get to see/do/experience so much. Watching & being around tourists who don't know where they're going while driving & looking around, a train like this would allow them to get places, be safe, and allow locals to be safe. To be honest, I'd love to not only see this time-saver and door opener, but I've said for years that the Orlando-theme-park-destination-heavy-area should put in a major Monorail system connecting many of these very attractions - can you imagine how easy & positive such a system would be?!

Surley if its all connected correctly then it will be a much quicker and easier way to travel across the state, if you have two lines one running a high speed train stopping only at the larger stations such as the airport downtown disney tampa etc... which can get you there in short times and then had a slower but regular service which stops at all stations then its a win win situation?
I would much rather use a train to get to disney from the airport than a bus, as the bus queues are terrible most times. If you could leave you bags and jump on a train that takes you to a set point in disney then use disney transport from there it would be a lot quicker and easier

hey Ron A, Anthony M, Michael O, and Mike K, i'm doing a project in school where i pick an article and display it to my class with a couple other things. Can i use your comments to give examples of some people's oppinions?(i would list you as anonymous).
From 220.127.116.11 on February 2, 2010 at 11:13 PM
This is just another example of our government ignoring the will of the people. 64% of voters voted against this project in 2004. The State of Florida DOT has forged ahead anyway, as has the Legislature, and the federal government. Sen. Bill Nelson, and Obama support it - against the will of the voters. What a bunch of pompous asses. Every one of them should be thrown in jail for unauthorized misappropriation of our tax dollars.

Top 100 Venture Capital Firms
|Document - Business
|August 29 2006
Entrepreneur Magazine, July 2006.
Our VC 100 rankings are based on the number of first-time fundings to companies in the startup and early stages of development made by VC firms and similar entities in calendar year 2005 as measured by the "MoneyTree Report" from PricewaterhouseCoopers and the National Venture Capital Association, based on data from Thomson Financial.
"VC funding isn't always easy to obtain and and you'll have to give up equity, but when you're a high-growth company with high-financing needs, it can be your best bet."
Venture capital isn't for everyone--not all entrepreneurs need $1 million or more for funding. But for entrepreneurs who want to join the big leagues, a venture capital firm can invest the funds to get you there. Every year, we take the pulse of the venture capital industry to help you determine if now is the right time to seek funding. Our listing ranks VC firms by the number of early-stage deals made in 2005. This year, we've included an additional online listing of firms ranked by later-stage deals and a VC primer that'll show you the ins and outs of this financing option.

so... Down three pounds in one week while limited on workouts and eating at least my minimum number of calories. A bit worried that it's a fluke. I don't feel any different yet, adn I'm down almost 12 pounds. When does the difference become noticeable?
I wish I had been motivated years ago to eat right - down another three pounds this week!!!
I posted earlier with my goals/plan. This is a "before" photo. Of course, I picked something that made me look terrible - I hope the difference is noticeable at the end, because this is embarassing! Incidentally, I don't know how to turn the photo... anyone?
As a member of the Pink Vikings team in the Biggest Loser Challenge, I have the following assignment:
Creative Writing 101: Blog your 12 week plan for success. Be specific. Don't limit yourself to minutes of fitness and calories consumed. Really think about it! How can you fit in the minutes that you need in your busy day? How will you be sure to have quality food options? How will you reward yourself along the way? Post your 12 week plan in a BLOG entry to receive 150 points. (complete any day, receive one time points)
1. I will plan a weekly menu for my family for dinner. This will help in two ways: I can use up food that has been sitting on the shelves AND it will help me eat healthier. In addition, I can plan my shopping list so I always have what I need on hand and don't turn to something unhealthy. I will be judicious in my "eat out" meals.
2. I will do strength training exercises in the evening for at least 20 minutes each day while my husband watches TV. I cannot do cardio, as my feet still hurt terribly from plantar fasciitis, but even 20 minutes of strength training will help me boost my metabolism and burn a few extra calories.
3. I've learned that if I feel "deprived", I will binge. As a result, I will make sure that I get a treat at least twice a week. I will do this withing my calorie limit for the day, or I will save up a few calories each day so I can go over on one day.
4. I will join the "water cooler club" at work for $20, so I can have great water all day. Also, by paying the fee, I will feel obligated to use it!
5. Once I hit 230 (20 pounds lost), I will post my progress at work, so I am more accountable to people around me and they can see my progress. (I am at 10 pounds lost now! Hooray!)
I have the most amazing husband in the world. We've been married nine years and really do think alike - we've had two fights in those nine years. He is my best friend...
Well, you know that last fight? In it, he gently tried to break it to me that he was resentful that I'd put on weight with each of my four pregnancies... and I was a little above my ideal weight to start with. This meant that through the years, I've just kept getting bigger.
At the top of the scale, on 8/12/2012, I weighed 250. It is my goal to get to 200 by 2/13/2013, which means about two pounds a week. When I reach that goal, I will set my goal for a weight in my "ideal" range - 164 or lower.
I had already signed up for a Warrior Dash on 8/18/12, and I completed it, which was very empowering. If I can do that, I can work toward losing the extra pounds and being in a healthier body.
Some of my potential pitfalls?
I hate feeling deprived, I think some of it comes from "lean" times as a child. But I know that in order to return to a healthy weight, I must give up that mindset. There are times that I must feel deprived of the junk food, the free samples, the birthday cake. I need to remember that (too much) food makes me fat.
I don't feel bad in my body right now. I am comfortable and I don't usually even notice my size. People like me for who I am. I need to remind myself that being a size 16/18 is not normal and that I should NOT be satisfied with it.

By the way the song is about bigotry.
The two versions of the Tiger Woods car crash
Version #1
Tiger leaves his home in his Escalade sometime after 2 am for some unknown reason and unknown destination. He somehow lost control of his vehicle backing out of the driveway hitting a tree on a neighour's lawn and then a fire hydrant on his property. His wife Elin hears the crash and comes out with a golf club which she uses to smash the back window to get poor Tiger out. She supposedly got him out and laid him on the ground where he was in and out of consciousness. Tiger had cuts to his upper and lower lips and blood in his mouth; officers treated him for about 10 minutes until an ambulance arrived. Alcohol was not a factor.
Version #2
Tiger and his wife Elin had a fight. The argument got violent when Elin attacked Tiger's face, scratching it up. Tiger bolted out of the house in the middle of the night and hopped into his Escalade to escape the madness. But Elin wasn't going to let Tiger get away that easy, so she chased him with a golf club and smashed his back windows. Tiger got distracted in all the chaos and crashed into the fire hydrant. The two made up the story that his SUV's windows were busted out, because Elin broke them with the golf club to save Tiger.
You decide which sound more plausible.

An inside look at the Toronto 2015 Pan Am Games
2015 Pan Am Games!
Torontonians are already all keyed up for the torch relay that will take snake its way around the GTA. There will be one small complication - the Toronto bylaw which prohibits residents from running the streets with open flames. The Game organizers have a solution. The portion of the relay in the city limits will utilize a flashlight torch instead.
Mayor Smitherman will at the airport greeting visitors to the great City of Toronto. However, they will be asked to wear masks during the stay. It's just a precaution. During the era of SARS and H1N1, you can't be too careful.
An elaborate opening ceremony has been planned at the 9,600 seat Lamport Stadium in the beautiful Parkdale area.
Some of the finest Canadian talent has been assembled to kick off the Games.
The Regent Park development is being used to house the athletes. Before the start of the Games, residents will be driven to the city limits along with prostitutes, drug addicts and petty criminals for the duration to make room for athletes.
Other city residents are chipping in by opening their homes to visitors who will be coming to watch the games.
Although many of the athletic events will be taking place at Lamport Stadium, other facilities are expected to be made available. One new demonstration event will be ball hockey and state of the art facilities will be constructed to showcase this wonderful sport.
Huge crowds are expected to watch the different events and support the athletes.
These are expected to be Canada's most successful Pan Am Games and a record number of medals will be awarded to our wonderful athletes.

One Hit Wonder
City goes after Maple Leafs over illegal sidewalk ads
Maple Leaf Sports Entertainment recently hired an ad company to spray on sidewalks with ads. The city has now given MLSE 48 hours to remove the markings.
The ads that read "Leafs Nation, Spirit Is Everything" started appearing on sidewalks in October. This week officials at City Hall contacted MLSE to inform the company it had two days to remove the markings, or else the city would do it and send them the bill, the Toronto Sun report states.
MLSE said the ad company it hired claimed it secured the right to spray sidewalks with paint.

Why Brendan Burke's coming out is news
Many hockey fans have questioned why the story of Brian Burke's son Brendan revealing that he is gay is news. The story was revealed today on ESPN in an interview with Brian Burke.
This is a story because intolerance still exist in Canada. However, human rights legislation has only driven it underground. In our pluralistic society you can get away with being a raving bigot. It is heartwarming to see Brian Burke publicly express his love and support for his son. More importantly it may help other young men and women who struggle with this secret, too afraid to tell family and friends. This is quite a heavy burden to carry alone and keep hidden. The stigma and fear is greater in the world of sports because of the macho image that athletes project. Everyone seems to agree that gays are accepted in sports but where is the proof?
Glenn Burke was a Major League Baseball player for the Los Angeles Dodgers and Oakland Athletics from 1976 to 1979. Burke was the first Major League Baseball player to be out to his teammates and team owners during his professional career.
Los Angeles Dodgers General Manager Al Campanis offered to pay for a lavish honeymoon if Burke agreed to get married. Burke refused to participate in the sham. He also angered Dodger manager Tommy Lasorda by befriending the manager's estranged gay son, Tommy Lasorda, Jr. The Dodgers eventually dealt Burke to the Oakland Athletics. Faced with mounting difficulties, Burke eventually quit baseball.
Ed Gallagher, an offensive lineman for the University of Pittsburgh from 1977-79, jumps from a dam 12 days after his first sexual encounter with another man. He survives but is left a paraplegic. Gallagher says that before his suicide attempt, he had become unable to reconcile his image of himself as an athlete with gay urges. He later admits that the incident forced him to come to grips with his sexuality: "I was more emotionally paralyzed then, than I am physically now."
Paul Priore, a former New York Yankees clubhouse assistant, files a lawsuit on July 29 against Yankee pitchers Jeff Nelson and Mariano Rivera and former Yankee pitcher Bob Wickman. Priore claims that he was humiliated with gay-bashing remarks, harassed and threatened with sexual assault. He also says he was fired because he has contracted the AIDS virus.
Brian Burke is quoted as saying "I hope the day comes – and soon – when this is not a story". Couldn't agree more.
Chris Little is guilty
Jurors spent almost 3 days deliberating before concluding that Chris Little, 38, cut the throat of his estranged wife, Julie Crocker, 33, and then staged the death of Paula Menendez, 34, to make it look like a murder-suicide.
The two women were linked by sportscaster Rick Ralph who had separated from Menendez and begun dating Crocker in mid-2006.
The staged murder-suicide was both chilling and absurd as the details came out. Little called 911 on Feb. 12, 2007 saying he stumbled across the crime scene, but later that day he was charged with murder. No one bought his story as he continued to insist on his innocence and that includes the jury.
The Crown's theory was that Little killed Crocker after she made it clear their nine-year marriage was indeed over. It seems that Little was both emotionally and financially dependent on Little. She earned more than triple Little's income so it appears Crocker was also his meal ticket.
The Crown stated that he then drove Menendez's Etobicoke home, strangled her, then brought the body back to his home in Markham where he made it appear as if she had killed herself. So he essentially killed Menendez, a women he didn't even know, in an attempt to cover up his own crime.
First-degree murder carries an automatic sentence of life in prison with no possibility of parole for 25 years.
13 year old is lost in NYC subway system for 11 days
Francisco Hernandez Jr., of Bensonhurst, a 13-year old that suffers from Asperger's syndrome, a relatively mild form of autism, spent 11 days riding the rails after he got in trouble at school and feared he would get in more trouble at home, according to a profile in the Times.
"I didn't want anyone to scream at me," he told the paper. He even removed his battery from his cellphone to ensure he wouldn't be bothered.
Francisco said he spent the 11 days in October traveling through four boroughs on the train, completely undetected despite constant search efforts by his parents, relatives, family friends, the NYPD and the Mexican Consulate.
On October 26, however, a transit cop found him in a Coney Island station, but still no one has been able to find an explanation for how he was able to lay low for so long.
His parents, Mexican immigrants, say the police dragged their feet on the case.
"Maybe because you might not understand how to manager the situation, because you don't speak English very well, because of your legal status, they don't pay you a lot of attention," his mom, Marisela Garcia, 38, a housecleaner, who has lived here since 1994, told the Times.
But cops say they did everything they could from the beginning, including interviewing school officials, classmates and passing out leaflets all over the city, according to the Times.
Francisco told the paper that he spent his time on three subway lines, the D, F and 1, and would ride the trains until the last stop then hop on the next one going back the other way. He ate whatever he could afford from subway newsstands, like potato chips and jellyrolls, then neatly folded the wrappers and saved them in his backpack, while drinking bottled water.
He says he slept most of the time and used the bathroom at the Stillwell Avenue station.
"At some point I just stopped feeling anything," Francisco told the Times.

Biggest news of the day: Deer tasered in downtown Toronto
Toronto Police used a Taser to subdue a deer that was found wandering downtown this morning.
According to this CP24 report, "The deer had been sitting in a garden at 123 Edward Street (I worked there for several months) near Bay Street and University Avenue for several hours before police moved in to tranquilize and move the animal."
The deer was initially shot with a tranquilizer gun around 11:15 a.m. But the scene became rather involved after members of Toronto's animal services department were joined by police (including the Emergency Task Force) on the takedown, possibly making matters worse for the deer. Yup that is a lot of firepower for one little innocent doe.
It ended up getting tasered.
Man discovers Charles Manson is his dad
Matthew Roberts, 41, tracked down his biological mother after she put him up for adoption in 1968.
But he sank into depression after the woman revealed his dad is none other than the jailed cult leader.
Mr Roberts' real mother claimed he was born after Manson raped her in a drug-fuelled orgy in 1967.
The son, who bears a striking resemblance to the killer, said: "I didn't want to believe it. I was frightened and angry. It's like finding out that Adolf Hitler is your father.
"I'm a peaceful person - trapped in the face of a monster."
Badly Drawn Boy arrested for taxi murder
Bolivian authorities released this crudely-drawn e-fit of the man believed to have taken part in the murder of a taxi driver in March.
The driver, named by earnest Bolivian newsreaders as Rafael Vargas, was set upon by several people in what police said could be a drugs-related murder - or a crime of passion.
His brother said that a man had come to the family house several months earlier and accused Rafael of having an affair with his wife.
'You're going to die and you don't know how,' the man allegedly told Rafael. His body was found in March. He had been stabbed eleven times and then his body had been burnt.
Update: The suspect is revealed here.
The e-fit was drawn by a woman who lived in the area where Rafael's body was found. She claimed the drawing showed the man who killed the taxi driver and then set his body on fire.
But police efforts may have paid off. They have made at least one arrest in the case, catching a suspect who was then paraded before the cameras - although he cannot be identified'.

Is it the curse of Frank Mahovlich?
A friend of mine insists the Maple Leafs are cursed after trading Frank Mahovlich. I'm not superstitious but it is a fact that the season after the Maple Leafs' last Stanley Cup win, the enigmatic left winger was traded to Detroit.
Frank Mahovlich was a talented and classy winger, a large man with the skills and hands of a pure scorer. Known as "the Big M," Mahovlich was touted as a superstar while still a teenager. Mahovlich also struggled through most of his hockey life with the stress that comes from great expectations.
In his first full season in the NHL, 1957-58, he was solid and at times spectacular and his 20 goals and 36 points were enough to earn him the Calder Trophy as top rookie beating out Bobby Hull.
His next two seasons were erratic on the ice but consistent on the score sheet. He hovered around 20 goals, good totals for a young player, but many Toronto fans wanted a superstar performance each night, on every shift, and 20 goals wasn't good enough. In 1960-61, he began to play the way everyone had always expected. Still only 23 years old, he had an exceptional start to the season and led the league for much of the year in goals. With 14 games remaining, he had 48 goals, two less than Maurice Richard's record of 50. He seemed destined to seize the position of the game's top scorer. Those final two goals never came.
Although the Leafs won the Stanley Cup for three consecutive seasons beginning in 1962, and even though Mahovlich averaged over 30 goals a year, he was the focus of much criticism and constant boos when he played in front of the home crowd. When he failed to score a goal in the 1963 playoffs, he was booed during and after the game in which the Leafs clinched the title. Even the next day the heckling continued at a reception in downtown Toronto for the Cup winners.
Mahovlich responded to coach Punch Imlach's berating by not reacting to it. He admitted later that the two men didn't speak for five years. Though the team and the doctors didn't admit it for several years, Mahovlich was hospitalized in 1964, suffering from acute tension and depression. He returned to the team but struggled on the ice, his goal production dropping to 18 in 1966-67, the year of his final Cup victory with Toronto.
The Leafs played the Montreal Canadiens on November 1, 1967 - an important game between long-time foes. Mahovlich played a wonderful game, scoring a goal and adding two assists in Toronto's 5-0 win. He was named one of the three stars of the game. The next day, with the Leafs leaving on a trip to Detroit, Mahovlich got up from his seat on the train, told a teammate he was going home and left. He was soon under the care of the Toronto General Hospital psychiatric staff. He was in a deep depression and, according to many reports, had suffered a nervous breakdown. Mahovlich stayed away from the rink to deal with his condition for more than a month, during which he missed 11 games.
Near the end of the season, the Leafs decided to part ways with their big winger. In the biggest trade of the decade, he was sent to the Detroit Red Wings with Pete Stemkowski, Garry Unger and the rights to another Leaf enigma, Carl Brewer, for Paul Henderson, Norm Ullman and Floyd Smith.So maybe the team and fans are cursed for the shabby treatment given to the shy Maple Leaf star of the 1960s.

The Eastern Townships woman was receiving monthly sick-leave benefits from Manulife, her insurance company, but the payments dried up this fall. When Blanchard called Manulife, the company said that "I'm available to work, because of Facebook," she said.
She said her insurance agent described several pictures Blanchard posted on the popular social networking site, including ones showing her having a good time at a Chippendales bar show, at her birthday party and on a sun holiday — evidence that she is no longer depressed, Manulife said.
Blanchard said she notified Manulife that she was taking a trip, and she's shocked the company would investigate her in such a manner and interpret her photos that way. "In the moment I'm happy, but before and after I have the same problems" as before, she said.
Blanchard said that on her doctor's advice, she tried to have fun, including nights out at her local bar with friends and short getaways to sun destinations, as a way to forget her problems. She also doesn't understand how Manulife accessed her photos because her Facebook profile is locked and only people she approves can look at what she posts.
Her lawyer Tom Lavin said Manulife's investigation was inappropriate. "I don't think for judging a mental state that Facebook is a very good tool," he said, adding that he has requested another psychiatric evaluation for Blanchard.

A pitcher never wants to hear that he has a torn ulnar collateral ligament (UCL), but the news is even worse when the pitcher is 38 years old.
Veteran closer Rafael Betancourt of the Colorado Rockies was bombed by the Philadelphia Phillies in a save opportunity on Thursday night, and he was promptly place on the disabled list the next day. He underwent an MRI shortly thereafter which revealed a complete tear of his UCL that is nearly certain to require Tommy John surgery.
The 38-year-old righty will first see how his elbow responds to platelet rich plasma (PRP) treatment before being reevaluated. If the PRP treatment does not work (which there is a good chance it will not), Betancourt very well may call it quits on his career.
"They left it up to me whether to have surgery or not. I will see if this (the PRP treatment) helps and allows me to throw again. If not..." said Betancourt. The implication of the "if not..." is that he would retire before electing for Tommy John surgery.
Set to turn 39 during the first month of the 2014 MLB season, Betancourt's best case scenario with Tommy John surgery would be a return to Major League action for his age-40 season in 2015. Rehab from Tommy John surgery generally takes 12-13 months, and given his current age, it would be a lot of hard work with very little payoff for Betancourt.
Betancourt's current contract contains a $4.25 million mutual option for 2014 that will not be picked up, considering he won't be pitching at all that season.
Betancourt was a late bloomer at the professional level, making his MLB debut at the age of 28, but he has enjoyed some solid seasons as a reliever over the past decade - he has posted an ERA under 3.00 in six of his 11 MLB seasons. He earned the closing job for the Rockies last year, racking up 31 saves while posting a 2.81 ERA. He was enjoying a nice campaign this year when healthy, posting a 2.93 ERA and converting 16-of-17 save opportunities before imploding over his final two appearances, in which he blew two saves and saw his ERA balloon up to 4.08.
Betancourt is certainly no Hall of Fame talent, but if this is the end of the road for him, he will be wrapping up a solid professional career.

As a cold front passes through the Tennessee Valley this evening some light wintry precipitation may develop in some of the mountain areas.
As temperatures fall to the lower 30s later this evening and into the overnight, the high terrain on the Cumberland Plateau--Cumberland, Bledsoe, Grundy, Marion, Sequatchie, and Van Buren Counties--may see drizzle turn to freezing drizzle before changing to light snow/flurries.
The same thing may occur in the mountains of eastern Polk County, TN and the Blue Ridge of Georgia and North Carolina, mainly above 2500 feet. If freezing drizzle develops, a thin glaze of ice will form on some roads, bridges, and overpasses before a dusting of snow falls. Travel in these areas could become dangerous and should be avoided later tonight if possible. Chattanooga and other valley spots may see a few wet flurries overnight but nothing will stick to the ground.
Sunday starts off cloudy but some sunshine returns by afternoon. Highs in the valleys reach the lower 40s while the high elevations only top out in the 30s. Breezes pick up out of the northwest adding a cold bite to the air.
Highs for the upcoming work week warm back to the 50s with some rain by Friday or Saturday.

Recession Survival Guide: Husband Lost Job
The recession is particularly tough for moms whose spouses lost their jobs.
Our Moms and the Recession survey found that:
• 50% feel they work harder than their partner to improve the situation;
• Less than 50% say their laid-off hubby is helping out more even though he's home more;
• 46% fight more;
• 44% have less sex;
• 30% feel less attracted to their spouse.
Psychotherapist and mom of two Jill Spivack: When your spouse loses his job, it can be very difficult on your relationship. When you are habituated to a certain flow in your family, any change in that family system throws the entire system off. It's as if a bomb goes off in the family. The identity of "who we are" changes, and fears bring out the worst in everyone. This is very disconcerting for both partners.
For men: They are biologically set up to "hunt and gather." Even for the most progressive men, losing a job can often trigger a huge amount of shame because they feel as if they're not able to fulfill their duties as a man. Oftentimes, men will retreat inward and won't talk about their feelings with their spouse for fear of being humiliated.
For women: Reactions vary, depending on whether or not the woman is also working outside of the home, but often, women feel more resentful of their spouses, feel less attracted to them, lose respect for them, or worry terribly about their spouse's psyche.
Like it or not, some moms lose respect and resent their spouse for the job loss even when being laid off was not his fault. This can happen because of the provider role that the woman has come to expect from her husband, and her fears about the ramifications of things changing so drastically. Some women were conditioned to expect to be taken care of by a man, based on the role that their own fathers played in their lives, or the stories they were told about how things "should be" from a very young age. When this role isn't fulfilled by her mate, it can affect a woman's ideas about her husband's stability, ability to care for her and the children, and even her sexual attraction toward him.
Women, biologically, want to nest to some degree, and a family often functions when the male takes on the primary role of providing financially while the woman takes on the primary duties of the children. Sounds old-fashioned, but even when women work, the need to nest and take care of the children is there. Women can become angry when a spouse is at home after losing a job and won't offer to help with the house or the kids. Know that he isn't just being "lazy" -- asking a man who has lost his primary role to do traditionally female chores/caretaking of kids can feel even more emasculating -- they are feeling shame, guilt, anger, anxiety over unemployment, and sometimes, when they're pulled into the "female role," it can send them further into depression.
If feelings/reactions/stressors aren't processed, it can be a recipe for a future divorce. Couples often fight more, kids get clingy and scared, and everyone walks on eggshells around the newly laid-off parent. It can be quite a change to have your husband at home all day when he hasn't normally been around. It can even feel irritating to some women who have a good flow to their day when a spouse suddenly wants to use the computer or asks for lunch to be made.
How to Help
1) Communicate: Couples need to communicate with each other and help each person individually to deal with whatever is going on for them ... women need to vent their fear/frustration elsewhere as well, so they can offer positive support to their spouses and to cheerlead rather than nag. Reaching out to other female friends or a professional can be very helpful in keeping reactions under control.
2) Take care of yourself so you can stay strong for your spouse. It takes a strong and healthy person to support a spouse who is hurting. Relax, exercise, hang out with friends and family to gain your own strength. Turn to friends and family for outside support. The unemployed person may not be able to handle any more dumping ... journal if you have to, to get your feelings out -- privately.
3) Try to remember why you married your husband. What else besides his financial situation attracted you to him? Is he funny, a great dad, fantastic in bed? Write these things down and look at them frequently. If you feel like he's losing his masculinity in your eyes, ask him to do some chivalrous acts like opening the door of the car for you, lifting heavy groceries ... give him opportunities to show his manliness in other ways for now.
4) Work out together. Exercise can make you feel less depressed and anxious and can be a fun activity to share.
5) Tend to the spiritual and emotional health of your family during the job hunt.
6) Agree on a budget as soon as you can and differentiate wants versus needs in the household. Make a family agreement.
7) Find creative ways to pare down the budget as a family. This is a good time to organize photo albums, watch old family videos, make forts out of boxes, camp out in your backyard, or go on a road trip.
8) Make an appreciation box and pick one night of the week to share with each other. Each week, write something you appreciate about your spouse on a piece of paper and drop it into a shoe box. On a specific night, read these appreciation notes to one another. This helps to remind you of what you love about each other and encourages supportive behavior.
Did your husband lose his job recently? What are your survival strategies?

I made this for breakfast today. It was really easy, and fast. My husband and 18month old both loved it. I used homemade bread instead of the challah, so I let it soak a little longer. The apple compote was fantastic...I used McIntosh apples which worked fine. Definitely will make it again.
French Toast with Maple-Apple Compote
CookinMcGuires Posted: 10/02/10
karen0920 Posted: 10/04/10
My family LOVED this recipe! I used Gala apples and they worked fine. I got the egg mixture ready, then got the apples mostly done before I started the toast. The apples were nice and soft by the time I was done. Didn't have powdered sugar; didn't need it. We will definitely make this again.
BiteSize Posted: 01/20/11
Very good and fairly easy to make.
FrankPaul Posted: 09/25/10
Delicious recipe! Made this with the Hawaiian bread & it turned out great. We started making the french toast right after we made the compote. For the first few pieces, the apple was a little tough. But by the time we made the last few pieces, the apple was perfectly softened and so yummy with the maple syrup. So when I make this again, I will let the compote sit for a little while. The powdered sugar was a great addition, be sure to desire it if you make this!
JIMMIC Posted: 12/18/10
A great alternative to regular French Toast. Easy to make. We found the serving size to be correct. We skipped the powdered sugar.
abitw2010 Posted: 10/03/10
Easy to make. Used Fuji apples - good taste. will make again.
icancookthat Posted: 10/10/11
Wow. I loved the flavors of this dish, and it's easy to make too! To check out my post with slight changes to the recipe, please visit: http://www.icancookthat.org/2011/10/french-toast-with-maple-apple-compote.html
charoulli Posted: 11/27/11
I started the apples, meanwhile I did the egg mixture, and started with the French Toast before the apples were completely finished. That way everything was done at the same time without turning the oven on (saving energy). It tasted very good, we will make again!
LindaThiel Posted: 08/19/12
Got an absolutely delicious from my husband this morning. Can't wait to try it on my grandchildren. The apples were just right I did sprinkle cinnammon on it rather than powdered sugar. By chopping up the bread and mixing with the apples it would make a great bread pudding. Keep these great recipes coming.
daneanp Posted: 09/21/14
Delicious. We used the Hawaiian bread. I also didn't bother heating up the oven. I made the compote in a large saucepan - adding a few minutes to the cooking time, then made the bread to order as DH and DD wandered into the kitchen for Sunday breakfast. Everyone loved it.
michellefries Posted: 07/26/14
Really great flavors. We used peaches instead of apples because it is July and peaches are everywhere. Served with Prosecco. Will make again will try with persimmons in the fall, yum!

The Ontario Reign fell short in their home opener with a shootout loss to the Stockton Thunder in front of a sellout crowd at Citizens Business Bank Arena Saturday night.
The intense, back and forth game, featured a little bit of everything. There was a power-play goal, a short-handed goal, a couple fights, overtime, a shootout and even a marriage proposal.
Jeff Corey, opened up the scoring on the power-play in the first period to give the Reign a 1-0 later. Later, Eric Doyle blasted a slap shot from the point that was redirected by Corey past Thunder's goalie Tyson Sexsmith.
Ontario's David Walker brought the arena to an uproar when he and Thunder's Cameron Brodi, dropped the gloves midway through the first stanza. Both players furiously exchanged overhand rights. Walker was able to get Brodie's jersey over his head and connected with a couple more shots before the two fell to the ice.
Thunder forward Mark Arcobello, had a chance to tie the game up late in the first on a penalty shot. He came down and tried to put a move on Reign goalie Kellen Briggs, but Briggs threw a poke-check to break up the play, securing the 1-0 lead for the Reign.
The Thunder came out in the second and tied the game up early in the period. Jordan Foreman snapped a shot on net and Jesse Gimblett picked up the rebound. He wrapped it around past a sprawling Briggs, putting Stockton on the board.
However, the tied game didn't last long. The Reign answered back a minute later to regain the lead. Matt Delahey drove the puck wide of the Thunder defense and took the puck to the net. His shot was saved by Sexsmith, but teammate Jon Francisco buried the rebound to give his team a 2-1 lead.
Once again, the Thunder tied the game back up in the third. Jason Pitton delivered the tying goal while the Thunder were shorthanded as he slipped the puck past Briggs after receiving a beautiful pass from Chris D'Avise.
After a scoreless overtime, the game went into the shootout. In the shootout, the Reign shot first and missed, but Fraser Clair scored on the Thunder's first attempt. The next three Reign shooters were all stopped by Sexsmith. The Reigns fifth and final shooter, Chad Starling, scored to keep the Reigns hope alive but Pitton beat Briggs again to give the Thunder the 3-2 victory.
Briggs finished with 29 saves in the loss, while Sexsmith made 25 saves for his second win of the year.
The Reign will be back on the road, as they take on the Victoria Salmon Kings Wednesday at the Save-On-Foods Memorial Centre.

#steve is like what #someone's playing galaga #wait i don't know what galaga is #shit what if it's important #is it a sport #is it a band #is it a board game #like monopoly #(thank god they still have monopoly) #god i'd better just look #it's behind me isn't it #there is nothing behind me #GOSH DARN IT 21ST CENTURY
I like how many parts of the movie you realize Thor, Steve, and Loki really do not know what the fuck is going on.
I just want a movie with Thor, Steve and Loki attempting to figure out this century. LIke, no action, no adventure, no explosions. Just wifi.
And then every so often Tony shows up and just rolls his eyes as Loki screams at the toaster, demanding for it to surrender his breakfast.
You guys really just want an Avengers sitcom, don't you
God, yes

the war on drugs has failed.
