Halle Berry and Gabriel Aubry Reportedly Split
"They've worked out a financial and custody deal. They spent months hammering out a deal with a lawyer," RadarOnline.com reports.
Although we have yet to hear from either beautiful celebrity's camp, Radar's source says the couple's age difference -- he's 34, she's 43 -- played a big part in their split.
"Gabriel just felt it wasn't working anymore," Radar's source says. "When they were first together, the 9-year age difference between them didn't phase him, she was the most beautiful woman he had ever dated and he was totally in love. But as time went on he started feeling it more and more. Also, Gabriel started noticing other women and being attracted to others, and he felt it just wasn't right to stay with Halle in those circumstances."
Radar also reports the couple will share equal custody of their daughter.
Berry was previously wed to former baseball player David Justice for five years and to singer Eric Benet for four years.
See what the kinda-sorta pretty actress has been up to lately >>

She has to be one of the most naturally beautiful woman, inside and out.
If he is attracted to younger women, then shoo-fly, get the Hell down the road.
- Friday 30 AprilBy Jaggers
Beautiful inside and out .. you can possibly know if she is beautiful on the inside. However, you do have some evidence. Several failed relationships and didnt she do a hit run several years ago. I do not see the same beautiful inside that you see.

Halle Berry seems to have ongoing problems with the men in her life. This beautiful YOUNG woman is now alone again. The age difference obviously only mattered to him; it appears he was honest about it and plans to go his own way without deceiving his partner. It will work for you in the end Halle and meanwhile you have one lovely child to live with.

I am so happy that they split. He did not deserve her in the first place because I think he is on the down low. I am the man that can walk into her life and bring her all the joy and happiness she deserves.Halle if you feel me holla.
- Friday 30 AprilBy sosuethen
It was really tacky of Gabriel to say that she is too old for him and that he needed a younger woman.When they got together I knew it would not last as he was just using her to further his career and bank account. I would be very interested in seeing their financial settlement that took months to hammer out.If he was being fair to her why didn"t he just leave with what he came with and agree to split support and custody of the child.

HE didn't say it - some 'unnamed source' said it, so it's probably not even accurate.

Halle Berry breaks up with a man every 9 months. Too bad she can't just give it up and live alone without clinging to a man. She obviously can't get along with anyone and they only date her for sex and money.

How wonderful that Gabriel is honest about his wandering eye. What about his child and the woman he married? Does marriage really mean anything to anyone anymore??? Oh, I want to screw someone new, divorce time. And to think religious zealots say that homosexuality threatens the "sanctity" of marriage. What sanctity?
- Friday 30 AprilBy Marsha
They were never married. I remember her doing the talk show circuit saying how much she was ready to have a baby. And she always stressed how she was never getting married again. She told Oprah she had been there done that and it wasn't anything that she needed anymore. Then she proceeded to tell why marriage wasn't necessary.
She had a couple of bad experiences, so I could see why she was so skeptical, however I think that she will marry again some day.
- Friday 30 AprilBy DeeLow Ranked Vote downVote upReport this
For Halle, this makes what #4 i think. It does make you wonder what is her deal behind closed doors. And to be honest she was only with him because he is a young, handsome model and she always made it known that she wanted a child, you never really heard her say much on the marriage aspect. Now as for him, if he really truely wants out because he felt his male testosterone kicking into overdrive, then at least he was honest. However, I dont buy it, its rather timely that he's doing this with that as his reason, especially with all the other high-profile spousel cheating cases that have popped up in recent months, mostly on the mens part, i.e., tiger woods, jesse james, who else did i miss, oh senator john edwards. I think he wanted out before he does or DID his dirt and got caught up for it. At least they kept it clean and mutual for the sake of their daughter. They can both do their parts and still be responsible without making a circus out of it...hopefully.
- Friday 30 AprilBy Diana
Halle is beautiful, anyone who says different is crazy, or blind.
Halle can have any man she wants, but she seems to be very picky. She can be, shes Halle !!! I think shes simply being very careful, of who she will end up being mairried to. More of us should be so careful.

All men want younger women, and when I hang around younger women, and see how totally STUPID most of them are....it's just a security issue with the men. Men are more insecure than women are (as we age) ....they need a "trophy" younger wife to prove they're a man. They aren't man enough to age gracefully without a younger woman, at least, it sure doesn't SEEM like it! I do not think for one minute that he isn't attracted to the most beautiful woman in the world (Halle)....he is INSECURE and NEEDS YOUNG MEAT to prove his manhood! Got to hand it to him for honesty before he "acts" - hope he gets what he deserves (he'll be sorry he lost her someday).
- Friday 30 AprilBy AugustusHigh Rank Vote downVote upReport this
I thought that they were married and I do not understand someone having a mans child without any thoughts of marrying him. Why would the nut give an age difference as the reason for the breakup. Unless you are giving an excuse for your own weaknesses, do not blame it on an age difference. What does that have to do with wandering around? Those the same age split, but I have never seen that placed as a reason. He probably could not take her stardom and I have never heard of him.

Student Clinician Research Program
25 April 2013
Quoting Disha Goyal, BDent 4 Student
"The recent SCADA experience at the 35th Annual Dental Congress held in Melbourne this year was amazing!
The Student Clinician Research Program was held at the 35th Annual Dental Congress in Melbourne. Contestants from various universities from Australia, New Zealand and Fiji came together to present their research papers to respected members of the Australian Dental Association. Having the opportunity to present and interact with elite members of the dental profession was an experience like no other. ADA and Dentsply kindly together with cricketer Max Walker hosted an awards ceremony dinner where we had the opportunity to briefly speak about ourselves and our research project to members of the ADA, Dentsply and students who participated in this program in the past. As a result, we were offered a certificate of participation and a certificate of membership of the International Student Clinician Program- American Dental Association. I thank ADA, Dentsply and University of Sydney for providing me with this platform on which many more amazing opportunities will arise."

Australian Simon Katich showed no ill-effects from having been dropped by his national side's 25-man international squad on Tuesday to hit an unbeaten double century a day later. Katich hit 220 not out as Derbyshire blasted to 448 for four against Somerset at Taunton in the County Championship Division One clash. Katich's unbroken 241-run partnership with compatriot Ian Harvey, who managed 123 not out, proved the undoing on a day of toil for Somerset. Former England paceman Andy Caddick claimed two early victims but eventually went for more than four an over as the batsmen dominated. Kent fought a defiant rearguard action to frustrate title-holders Sussex on the first day of their Division One clash at Canterbury. The hosts looked in deep trouble at 66 for four as Pakistani bowler Rana Naved-ul-Hasan and Robin Martin-Jenkins claimed a brace of early wickets each. But out of favour England wicketkeeper Geraint Jones (49) helped to steady the ship before a 148-run partnership between centurions Matt Walker (103) and Pakistani Yasir Arafat (122), who played for Sussex last season, guided Kent towards a respectable final total of 368. Martin-Jenkins starred with the ball for Sussex, claiming five for 67. The visitors struggled to 19 for two before the close as Arafat removed veteran Richard Montgomerie and nightwatchman James Kirtley for ducks. England captain Michael Vaughan showed a much desired return to form after a dismal World Cup as he scored 72 for Yorkshire before being run out against Hampshire. Pakistan's Younis Khan top-scored with 106, while rising star Adil Rashid also hit a half-century as the Tykes made a disappointing 299 all out after their lower order folded cheaply. In reply, Shane Warne's men were 25 without loss at the end of the day's play.

Seven mile stretch of I-96 will be completely closed starting tomorrow
Construction crews will soon start working on the long stretch of highway east of I-275 that connects Detroit with outlying areas. Officials say the highway will be closed for six months. The project was originally scheduled to get underway in January, but weather delayed the start.
The freeway will be closed starting tomorrow at 7 a.m. Ramps will begin to close tonight starting at 7 p.m.
Transportation officials have put together a website to inform motorists, and they have been counting down the days on their Twitter handle:
Da Da Da Daaaaaaa!!! .... 1 DAY TO CLOSURE: No more needs to be said. Review information on this page and... http://t.co/7grzwtF6Qb
— 96fix (@96Fix) April 4, 2014
More about the $148 million project from their website:
The Michigan Department of Transportation (MDOT) is reconstructing a 7-mile stretch of I-96 from Newburgh Road in the city of Livonia to Telegraph Road in Redford Township. It will require complete closure of the interstate ... Work includes reconstructing the road and repairing 37 bridges, including on and off ramps. The project will bring the corridor to current design standards and improve safety. Clearances at the 37 bridges/overpasses also will be increased to improve safety.
Go here for more information about other major construction projects around the state.
*A previous post reflected the estimated closure time listed on MDOT's website - 7-12 months. An MDOT official said they expect the highway to be closed 6 months. The post is now updated.

Custom Labels are the Perfect Assets to Disclose Vital InformationEstablishing a strong brand is pivotal for the success of any company. This helps businesses develop a relationships with customers and establish themselves as trustworthy industry thought leaders. Unfortunately, brands are falling short in a number of different areas, which leaves them unable to forge the tight-knit relationships with customers they desire.
A recent report from Edelman noted many of the ways in which brands are failing to reach customers' expectations, and one of the leading areas was transparency. Whereas 68 percent of respondents said open communication and transparency about how products and services are sourced and made was important to them, only 15 percent believed that brands followed through in that regard.

Meet MBJ's Super Women in Business
Send this to a friend
- Jane Donahoe
- Web and sections editor- Memphis Business Journal
- Email | Twitter
Memphis Business Journal is happy to introduce its inaugural class of Super Women in Business, featuring 25 of the city's most dynamic female business leaders.
The editorial team of MBJ chose the 25 honorees based on their success at the highest level of business and their community reinvestment. We were looking for women who are key decision makers in their respective businesses, as well as respected managers.
Narrowing our nomination pool of 115 women to this group of 25 was a taxing task, but we are extremely proud of the collection of talent and leadership represented among these 25 women.
|Click here to see the 2012 Super Women in Business >>
In the Aug. 17-23 print edition, our Super Women special section features profile stories on all 25 women as well as a story on the late Burnetta Williams, the former FedEx Corp. treasurer and corporate vice president who was the quintessential super woman in business. As Steve Dunavant, senior managing director at CBIZ MHM Thompson Dunavant said: "Whenever Burnetta would speak, we all knew to listen." We are proud to honor her posthumously.
The full section is only available in the print edition (click here to subscribe), but we are giving web readers a glimpse into the group with a photo slideshow of the Super Women.
We hope you will take the time to read more about the 25 honorees, their accomplishments, their advice for others in business and, most importantly, the lessons they've learned throughout their careers. There is much to be learned from their stories. Common themes like listening more than talking, building a great team and following core values are persistent in their tales, as is their commitment to hard work and passion for their careers.
We encourage readers to nominate their own "super women" again next year, as we plan to make Super Women in Business a regular part of our editorial and event calendar.

Rock beats Woods in Abu Dhabi Golf tourney
Britain's Robert Rock won his head-to-head duel with a ragged Tiger Woods to lift the Abu Dhabi Championship title on Sunday after the former world number one produced his worst performance of the week.
January 29, 2012 4:01 by Reuters
The two players started the day in a tie for the lead and it was the little-known Rock who held his nerve on the final day to collect his second European Tour victory with a closing 70 for 275, 13 under.
Woods's excellent play over the first three days at the demanding Abu Dhabi Golf Club indicated the 14-times major champion was back to his best but his game unravelled on Sunday as he faded to a 72 for 277.
World number three Rory McIlroy (69) finished second on 276 while Woods had to settle for a share of third spot with former U.S. Open champion Graeme McDowell (68), who had a hole-in-one at the 12th, and Dane Thomas Bjorn (68).
Rock, 34, who started the week 117th in the rankings, was almost overcome with emotion after landing the Falcon Trophy and the first prize of 347,024 euros ($455,700).
"I really can't believe I did that today," said the bearded Englishman. "It is such an amazing feeling.
"I was just happy to be playing alongside Tiger today, that was a special honour in itself. Early on I played really well and I surprised myself.
"I hit some good shots and I began to tell myself, 'Why not (go and win it)?'. I've worked very hard at my game over the last few years but I didn't think this would ever happen," added Rock.

The buying interest from Greek ship owners is focused on bulkers to an increasing extent, BIMCO said. Data from VesselsValue.com reveal that Greek owners were at the buying end of 43% of all bulker sales completed so far in 2014. As of June 2014, the number of Greek bulker purchases so far is 91, compared to 81 for the full year of 2012. The level of activity seen so far in 2014 would suggest Greek owners are on target to top the 199 bulker purchases completed in 2013. "The interest is much centered on bulkers and has become more and more explicit over the past two years, whereas Greek buying interest in tankers and containerships is flat," said Peter Sand, Chief Shipping Analyst, BIMCO. The market share of Greek tanker purchases has averaged at 19% in the past 2.5 years. So far this year, Greek owners has bought 39 tankers, only 12 of these built before 2000.
Newbuild Investment
Greek ship owners are not only the most active nation when it comes to sales and purchases, they are also investing the most in newbuilding contracts, BIMCO reported. Since 2010, contracts made by owners in Greece total $51B, dwarfing the likes of Norway and China as buyers.
"The Greek ship owners' interest in newbuilding contracts has continued into 2014, where 73 new contracts valued at $4.3 billion have been signed," said Sand. "Due to a focus on higher value ship segments, they consistently top China on value, despite losing out on the total number of contracts signed for all years but 2013".
China has signed a total of 98 newbuilding contracts in 2014. In 2013, ship owners in China signed 270 contracts, but Greek ship owners went up to 284.

Jack White - On And On And On Lyrics
Jack White – On And On And On Lyrics
The sun and the moon never change
They just rearrange, but not in the new day
Gold exchanges for silver
And a light on the river gets carried away
On and on, on and on
On and on, on and on
I lift up my head and I wonder
Just who it is calling, calling my name now
I trip on my way and I blunder
My head hiding under a blanket of shame
High and low may I go
Where God only knows just where I am going
High and low may I go
But God only knows just where I am going
The people around me won't let me
Become what I need to, they want me the same
I look at myself and I want to
Just cover my eyes and give myself a new name
The stones in the sky never worry
They don't have to hurry, they move in their own way
But I have to choose what to do
How to act, what to think, how to talk, what to say

NEW YORK (CNNMoney.com) -- Managing financial data is often a nightmare for small business owners. Most can't afford pricey accountants, and few have the bookkeeping and organizational skills to do the job well themselves.
Enter InDinero, a startup taking aim at that problem.
The site, which founder Jessica Mah calls "the Mint.com for small businesses," offers business owners a dashboard for real-time financial tracking, modeling and forecasting. A snazzy visual interface helps hammer home the meaning of the numbers -- like a "cash runway" gauge that shows how many months of financial fuel a company has in its tank.
A recent grad of venture firm Y Combinator, InDinero launched two months ago to glowing reviews and recently closed a $1 million financing round. The site has already attracted 4,000 business clients using the system to track $400 million -- and Mah says it's already profitable.
"More than three-quarters of our customers never used any accounting before," Mah said. "We expected other programs to be our biggest hurdle -- instead, it's combating inertia."
Mah is painfully familiar with the problem she is trying to solve. She launched her first business when she was 13 years old, and continued in the entrepreneurial vein throughout high school. Whether she was selling website templates on eBay (EBAY, Fortune 500) or running a server hosting site, the financial details were always a headache.
"I was generating a lot of revenue, but my margins weren't good," Mah said. "Even though I knew that, I couldn't figure out a way to solve my problems."
Mah tried to use accounting programs like Intuit's (INTU) QuickBooks, but found them time-consuming and lacking details.
"I wanted to see, for example, how long my company could survive if my revenue dried up overnight," Mah said.
InDinero can show you that. Mah and her business partner, Andy Su, met in college at the University of California's Berkeley campus. They started chatting about their problems with business accounting software, and expanded the discussion to other classmates who'd tried to launch companies.
The stories were the same: Entrepreneurs didn't want to spend a lot of time on complicated software or daunting math. They wanted a quick way to see their finances at a glance. Mah and Su compiled the ideas and began building InDinero in March 2009.
"Twitter and Facebook are fun, but they don't fix business problems," Mah said. "We wanted to create solutions."
Mah met with more than 50 accountants and business owners for tips, but the results weren't encouraging.
"A lot of investors told us it would be really difficult because businesses want so many things," Mah said. "And it's a finance application, which doesn't sound very sexy."
The original plan was to create accounting software, but Mah and Su decided to instead create what they call "a real-time financial dashboard." They focused on the user interface, opting to start with clean graphics and worry about the gritty math details later.
Mah, a computer science graduate, said she built the site around "the idea of what the perfect bank will look like in the year 2100." Setup takes less than 3 minutes, and InDinero pulls in past transactions from businesses' debit, credit and checking accounts.
The site displays graphs detailing how much is business is making, as well as how much it's spending across categories like payroll and travel. Users can also see forecasts for their next 18 months, including the impact of events like hiring a new employee or increasig their Web server costs.
But unlike Mint.com, which relies on advertising to make money, InDinero isn't completely free. Basic accounts come gratis, but businesses with more than 50 transactions a month will need to shell out $30 a month. An enterprise account, for companies with more than 500 monthly transactions, costs $100 a month.
InDinero is currently run by a five-person team -- and they all live together in a Mountain View apartment. Mah hasn't yet paid herself a salary.
She says she'd rather use profits to hire new employees. After all, she's taken to heart the lesson her software illustrates: "Managing money is hugely important for small businesses."

Sarkozy judge mistook hostage for billionaire - lawyer
PARIS (Reuters) - A judge investigating Nicolas Sarkozy's campaign funding mistook a Colombian hostage for a billionaire backer of France's right-wing party when he queried a meeting in the ex-president's diary, a lawyer for Sarkozy said.
Sarkozy, who lost power in May, was questioned for 12 hours on Thursday by a judge who is trying to establish whether his election win in 2007 was aided by illegal funding from France's richest woman, 90-year-old Liliane Bettencourt.
Rather than Bettencourt, daughter of the founder of the L'Oreal (OREP.PA) cosmetics empire, the diary entry referred to the Franco-Colombian Ingrid Betancourt, who was held hostage in Colombia for six years and freed in 2007, lawyer Thierry Herzog told French radio.
Herzog said judge Jean-Michel Gentil had made a note reading "name spelt wrongly" next to the name "Betancourt" on a list of Sarkozy's appointments, implying that he had believed the meeting was with the L'Oreal heiress, but eventually acknowledged his mistake.
In a statement on behalf of the judge, Bordeaux prosecutor Claude Laplaud did not deny Herzog's account, but said Sarkozy had not been summoned specifically to discuss the meeting with Ingrid Betancourt, and had not been questioned about it.
Gentil decided after the questioning not to open a full-blown inquiry into Sarkozy, who has bowed out of politics but remains a possible candidate for the conservative camp in the next presidential contest in 2017.
Sarkozy's departure has sparked a feud within his UMP party, where two men who faced off in an internal leadership election are exchanging accusations of fraud.
A BVA poll released on Friday indicated that 73 percent of conservative voters want Sarkozy back in politics.
It pointed to plunges in the popularity of the two men who fought to take his place as leader of the mainstream right, Francois Fillon and eventual winner Jean-Francois Cope.
Herzog said the ex-president, who denies any wrongdoing, was relieved after Thursday's meeting with the magistrates.
Gentil and two other judges who questioned Sarkozy classified him as a witness, a status in French judicial procedure that signals he is not liable to face trial.
Initial suspicions were fuelled three years ago when a woman who worked as an accountant for the mentally frail Bettencourt, now aged 90, alleged that a large cash withdrawal had been earmarked for Sarkozy's campaign.
Liliane Bettencourt's family has long had close connections with the UMP party of Sarkozy, who lost presidential immunity when he left office.
"For him and for me, this affair is an affair that no longer exists," said Herzog.
Sarkozy may also be asked to testify in two other judicial investigations, concerning the terms of a submarine sale to Pakistan and lavish spending on opinion polls by his office when he was president.
While the BVA poll suggested that three in four conservatives want to see Sarkozy back in action, it also indicated that 65 percent of French voters more generally do not want him back after he lost May's presidential election to Socialist Francois Hollande.

Ishikawa says ready for PGA Tour breakthrough
LA QUINTA, California
LA QUINTA, California (Reuters) - Japanese sensation Ryo Ishikawa, having already piled up multiple records on his home circuit, has set his sights on completing a breakthrough victory on the U.S. PGA Tour this season.
Long hailed as one of the most exciting young talents in the game, the 21-year-old has so far under-achieved in the United States but says he feels no added pressure as he strives to end his title drought on American soil.
Ishikawa has become a full member of the PGA Tour for 2013 and believes he can break into the winner's circle if he can improve his putting and add a bit of length to his drives.
"I want to hit my driver maybe five or 10 yards further than right now," Ishikawa told Reuters after shooting a level-par 72 in the second round of the PGA Tour's Humana Challenge on Friday.
"And my short game is no good right now either," he added with a broad grin. "I need more hard practice. These two things are no good but my iron play right now is mostly good, I think.
"So I need more practice on my short game, and more length with my driving."
Asked what specific targets he had established for his 2013 campaign, Ishikawa replied with barely any hesitation: "I would like to win on the PGA Tour for the first time and I would like to keep my (U.S.) tour card for next year."
Affectionately known as the "bashful prince" because of his unassuming demeanour, Ishikawa plans to split his time between his home tour and the U.S. circuit this year.
"I will play more events in the U.S. than before," he said after mixing two birdies with two bogeys to post a two-under total of 142 in his first tournament of 2013.
"I want to play on the Japanese Tour as well but the main tour world in this here so I think I will play more events than last year, probably 20-25 events on the PGA Tour."
The fashion-conscious Ishikawa has already established himself as one of his country's biggest sporting celebrities while amassing numerous records in his burgeoning career.
He was the Japanese Tour's youngest order of merit winner in 2009 and in November he became the youngest golfer to win 10 times on the circuit when he ended a two-year title drought with victory at the Taiheiyo Masters.
His every move, on and off the golf course, is monitored closely by the huge numbers of Japanese media but he does not feel any heightened sense of expectation about what he might achieve in the United States.
"There is no pressure for me," smiled Ishikawa, whose spoken English has improved markedly since he first competed on the PGA Tour as a teenager in 2009. "I am relaxing right now and staying focused on my game.
"It's good news for me and for Japanese golf that they have invited me to the Masters so I am still working hard and practising hard.
"Hopefully my play over the next three months on the PGA Tour will be better and then I will go back to Japan to play several events there before coming back here."
Ishikawa, who was given a Masters invitation last week, will make his fifth consecutive start at Augusta National where he has missed the cut on three occasions and tied for 20th in 2011.
The 2013 Masters, the opening major of the season, will take place from Apr. 11-14. (Editing by John O'Brien)

Research Points to Off Switch for Drug Resistance in CancerOctober 21, 2014 8:23 am | by Salk Institute for Biological Studies | News | Comments
Scientists have uncovered details about how cancer is able to become drug resistant over time, a phenomenon that occurs because cancer cells within the same tumor aren't identical— the cells have slight genetic variation, or diversity. Variations in breast cancer cells' RNA, the molecule that decodes genes and produces proteins, helps the cancer evolve more quickly than previously thought.
CD8 T Cells Will Fight Many VirusesOctober 21, 2014 8:14 am | by Brown Univ. | News | Comments

Brain Activity Provides Evidence for Internal Calorie CounterOctober 20, 2014 2:38 pm | by Association for Psychological Science | News | Comments
As you glance over a menu or peruse the shelves in a supermarket, you may be thinking about how each food will taste and whether it's nutritious, or you may be trying to decide what you're in the mood for. A new neuroimaging study suggests that while you're thinking all these things, an internal calorie counter of sorts is also evaluating each food based on its caloric density.

Bernie, by Susan Watkins
Sunday 02 January 2011
The author, the wife of Formula One's medical chief Professor Sid Watkins and a close friend of Bernie Ecclestone for 30 years, began writing this biography of the sport's diminutive supremo nine years ago with Ecclestone's blessing. Then he changed his mind and blocked publication for several years before suddenly relenting.
So much for the background; what about the book itself? It's big in every sense: 432 pages, packed with anecdotes and quotes, not least from Ecclestone himself. Watkins traces his rise from a modest background to immense wealth – he and his family are reckoned to be worth more than £2.5 billion – with a sure hand.
He showed an early entrepreneurial streak and was running a lucrative car dealership in Bexleyheath by his early 20s. His love of racing, first motorbikes, then cars, eventually led him to buy the Brabham team, and it was then that he recognised F1's untapped commercial potential.
Not everybody is happy at the way he set about realising that potential. One team owner, Sir Frank Williams, says: "He is a great deal more fun than people imagine... a loyal friend." But Ron Dennis of McLaren claims: "When you reflect on a deal with Bernie, you feel that he's managed to squeeze that extra five per cent out of you... you never feel that warmth of a fair deal... Bernie effectively stole Formula One from us."
Watkins guides us so expertly through the deals that brought Ecclestone to power that one wonders if there is anything new left for Bower to write about. Which is probably just how Bernie likes it.

Hodag volleyball avenges earlier defeat, takes down Antigo
Submitted: 10/04/2013
Ben Meyer
Executive Producer
- The Rhinelander High School volleyball team gave Antigo a positive Bell Game preview Thursday night, taking down the Red Robins in four games.
The Hodags recovered from a 5-0 deficit in Game One to rally back, taking the match 25-22, 25-14, 22-25, 25-17.
Rhinelander avenged an earlier loss to Antigo and pulled back to even in the Great Northern Conference at 4-4. The Robins fell to 4-4.
Senior captain Katie Berrell led a balanced attack with 18 kills. Riley Aschenbrenner chipped in 14 kills, while Brianna Gilbert added 13.
"I said, just keep (Berrell) in the middle and let her find her rhythm. She doesn't need to destroy the ball every time she touches it. She just needs to keep the ball in bounds and get a feel for how the game was going," Hodags coach Paul Mildebrandt said.
Mildebrandt was especially pleased with Aschenbrenner's night.
"Riley put on a clinic tonight. I told Lexi (Haug), our setter, that Riley should. When you're a head taller than anyone else on the court, I said, keep feeding her. She started blocking their tips, she started blocking their attacks. She got into their heads, really quick," he said.
Haug had 69 assists on the evening.
Antigo was without the injured Caroline Roller, who stands second in the conference in kills per game average.
"The part we focused on tonight was playing with a really active back row, both defensively and off the serve receive. Antigo, with the injuries that they had, didn't really have anyone that was going to offensively hurt us. They were going to be looking for more of a spot game. They were going to be looking more to keep the ball in the court," Mildebrandt said.
Rhinelander started off poorly, dropping the first five points of the match to the Red Robins. However, they ended up fighting back to take a 13-12 lead, and later put away the game by three points.
"We did start out a little sluggish. With it being Homecoming week, the girls have had a lot on their mind. We dug our way out of that game," Mildebrandt said.
A five-point scoring streak in the middle of Game Two served as a springboard to a 25-14 Hodags victory.
"Once our defensive started to pick up, we started to play a lot better, and we saw the score change," Mildebrandt said.
The Rhinelander coach used Game Three to get playing time for lesser-used players like Alyssa Ellis, Kyle Glinski, McKayla Smith, and Yvonne Gardner. That seemed to throw the team off, and contributed to the loss.
"It did affect some of our starters, because you're used to playing with the normal players," he said.
However, the Hodags used four straight points during Gardner's serve to take Game Four, 25-17.
Rhinelander next returns to the court Monday at Wausau East. They resume GNC play on Tuesday at Mosinee.

DNR reminds hunters to check boundaries
Submitted: 10/30/2014
- Wisconsin wildlife leaders want to remind deer hunters to learn the boundaries of new management units by reviewing county lines.
The DNR reduced the number of traditional management units this year from 134 to 72 units based on county boundaries in an effort to simplify the hunt.
The agency says hunters need to have a good idea where county lines are so they know where units begin and end.
The new units don't follow roads or rivers like they did in the past.

Candidates spar over Ebola, mining, minimum wage and other national topics during debate
Submitted: 10/29/2014

- Candidates for the 7th Congressional District debated over topics like mining, jobs, Ebola, healthcare, and other issues in Wausau Wednesday night.
Rep. Sean Duffy (R-Wisconsin) and Kelly Westlund (D-Ashland) are running for the 7th Congressional District seat. The district covers part of 20 counties across northern Wisconsin.
The area lags behind the rest of the state economically. That was one of the reasons mining was a topic of focus. The Gogebic Taconite project would involve a four mile open pit mine in Iron and Ashland County. The project could mean more than 600 jobs with other secondary jobs connected to the mine.
