HOT SPRINGS, Ark. - Everyone said the locals had an advantage at tough-fishing Lake Hamilton this week, and they were right. George Cochran, the Hot Springs pro who has lived on the lake for more than 15 years, took home $500,000 as the 2005 Wal-Mart FLW Tour Forrest L. Wood Championship winner after catching a five-bass limit weighing 10 pounds, 3 ounces Saturday.
And he won it, literally, right in his own backyard.
"My first fish, I caught it on a buzzbait about 300 yards from my house," he said. "That's what I've been doing most of the week. I've been fishing shallow, which is what I love to do. When you're in big tournaments like this, you've got to fish to your strengths. If I was going to win, it was going to be shallow."
Cochran - who beat Sandy Melvin and Brent Chapman in the first two bracket rounds to advance to the finals - attacked the shallows of his home lake this week with a trio of topwater baits. Under the heat and dealing with a light bass bite, he said that he caught fish on a Spit-N-King popper as well as a 5-inch trick worm. But it was his red-and-white, ¼-ounce Strike King buzzbait that was his main weapon - that, and a secret stash of bass within sight of his house that he'd been saving for the final round.
"I stayed on top the whole tournament. If I made it this far, I saved some deep docks for the final round," he said. "There are very few times that everything goes just like you plan, but I had a bank where I knew I could catch some fish. I didn't touch it at all during practice or during the tournament until today. But I went in there this morning, missed one on the first cast and landed a keeper on the second cast. I had my limit in the boat by 9 o'clock."
He wasn't the only who knew it, either. Presumably thanks to the Internet and the real-time catches provided by Remote Knowledge at FLWOutdoors.com, Cochran fans knew that their man was catching some serious fish. Combine that with an already busy, hot weekend day on the lake, and people in boats started showing up in droves on Lake Hamilton to watch as their hometown hero prepared to win the richest tournament in competitive bass fishing. It provided a surreal, interactive twist to an already exciting day for Cochran.
"I had about five boats on me this morning, but by 8:30 there were probably 40 boats," he said. "By 10:30 there were probably 80 boats around me, but by then I knew that the good fishing was done, so I just kind of sat back and enjoyed it. When you're culling out ones that are almost 2-pounders, you know that you've got fish."
He had all he needed for his decisive victory early in the day. Cochran's 10-3 beat second-place Chad Grigsby by over 3 1/2 pounds. Despite seven limits coming to the scale, nobody else could muster more than 6 1/2 pounds Saturday.
"Today, I was completely focused. I never lost a fish, and I did everything that I wanted to do," said Cochran, who fished around line-busting docks for much of the day.
Cochran - who won the FLW tournament at Kentucky Lake in 1996 - has also won two championship tournaments before, claiming the Bassmaster Classic title in 1987 and 1996. He said, with his $500,000 at the FLW Championship this week in front of his hometown fans, he'll fish one more Classic this year and then hang it up from the BASS tour. The 55-year-old former railroad brakeman still has his eyes set on making another run at another half-million dollars at next year's FLW Championship, however, saying that he will continue to compete on the FLW Tour next year.
"It just tickles me to death, at 55, to win such a big tournament, especially with all my friends and family here," said Cochran, whose FLW Outdoors career earnings jumped to a total of $698,400 Saturday. "That first victory (at the 1987 Classic) changed my whole life. It got me started fishing for a living, and now I've been doing this for 25 years. It can't get any better than this. Any victory is sweet, but to win a tournament like this is incredible. I'm getting close to the end of my career, and I've always dreamed of winning the FLW Championship. I feel like Forrest Gump; now I don't have to worry about money for a while. I'm the luckiest guy in the world."
Grigsby second, not satisfied
The winner wasn't the only one who figured out the buzzbait bite on Hamilton this week. Grigsby also leaned heavily on the topwater bait to catch his fish most of the week. Saturday, his buzzbait ultimately landed provided him five bass that weighed 6 pounds, 7 ounces.
"I missed one that was about 3 pounds this morning, and I thought it was going to cost me, but it didn't since George won it by more than that," Grigsby said. "I fished all new water everyday. Today, I went way upriver and all I did was cover a bunch of water."
The pro from Colon, Mich., earned $50,000 for second place.
"I'm not that excited about second place," Grigsby said. "It's not that I'm disappointed at all - especially taking second with all the little scrawny ones that I caught today - but I'm just not satisfied. The first time I get excited about second place, I should quit."
Murray drop-shots into third
John Murray also used a topwater bait early Saturday to catch a few schooling bass, but he eventually switched to a drop-shot and filled out his limit catching fish off of deep brush piles.
"I caught two early, and then it was about one every hour and a half," said Murray, who added that his drop-shot came armed with a Senko. "It was the toughest day I've ever had drop-shotting on any lake."
The pro from Phoenix weighed in five bass worth 5 pounds, 4 ounces and collected $40,000 for third place.
"I'm ecstatic," he said. "I went for broke and stayed deep. I was either going to come in first or last doing what I was doing, so I can't complain."
Rojas fourth
Dean Rojas of Grand Saline, Texas, actually tied Murray in total weight Saturday but finished in fourth place by virtue of the tiebreaker. He also caught a limit weighing 5 pounds, 4 ounces and earned $35,000.
"I caught my first fish by 9:30 this morning, and I thought I was going to whack them," Rojas said. "Then the boat traffic came."
Rojas caught two of his better bass on a topwater frog that he designed, the same bait that provided him one of the heaviest limits on day three. But his frog couldn't provide enough fish on day four to help Rojas finally make the leap into the winner's circle.
"I just didn't get any big bites today," he said.
Gagliardi fifth, Jones sixth
Anthony Gagliardi of Prosperity, S.C., caught a limit weighing 5 pounds even and finished in the fifth slot. He earned $30,000.
"I feel really fortunate to be here," he said. "I lost focus yesterday and didn't catch my first fish until 11 o'clock. I think that really threw me off my game."
Alton Jones of Waco, Texas, caught five bass weighing 4 pounds, 14 ounces and collected $24,000 for sixth place.
Rest of the best

Historical Traveler Reviews Ocean Beach Club Virginia Beach
Had a blast
I recently vacationed with my family in Virginia Beach @ the Ocean Beach Club hotel. We found the rooms to be very nice and of very good quality. The staff from the housekeepers to the front desk folks were very friendly and accomodating. They helped us find some great places to eat and some interesting things to do. While Virginia Beach itself is somewhat limited on quality family fun, our stay at this property made up for what the city lacked. We had a blast.
Very Nice Resort
After reading the other reviews for this hotel; I found it necessary to write a review after my families recent stay @ OCB. We too are timeshare owners for this resort and recently stayed for a full week @ the resort even with small children. (14, 7, and 3 all girls). We had a wonderful vacation. There are aminities that are not yet available because only the first stage of the building is complete. However the heated outdoor pool was available and in excellent working/clean condition during our stay. We especially liked that the pool was child friendly with steps down into the pool vs only ladders and 3 foot to 5 foot depth. There was however only 1 DVD player in the bedroom which we would have prefered to be in the living room as the girls slept on the full size pull out bed. Would also take my own pillows next time because we are not fond of feather pillows. Everyone was exceptionally friendly, right down to the valet parking guys. Housekeeping was prompt to bring us extra towels/pillows & even TP ;-) Again about the activities they gave us at the front desk a schedule for the week of things that was available just needed to register 24 hrs prior even had horseback riding available on the beach just contact the front desk/activity person. I could go on and on but basically just wanted to give a positive feed back for this resort and say just try it and see how your experience is... We went with God on our side so I know that makes all the difference in how we deal with the general public and how blessed we were to enjoy His mighty creation each beautiful morning that He woke us up to enjoy sight/sounds @ VB.
Ocean Beach Club...Lots of potential
Visited over Easter break with my daughter(9) and my son(15) and one of his friends. Decor is modern, bright and fun. Kids loved the flat screen tv. Pool is pretty, but no outdoor hot tub. And no indoor pool which would have been nice. Great location.
After reading previous reviews I was concerned about the service, but was pleasantly surprised. Trash was removed daily by maid staff and extra towels were brought within 15 minutes of request. We declined the sales tour and were not called again.
Two things I did not like.....I was charged $1 per day for use of a safe, even though I did not want to use it. And the parking is not the best. You must use valet parking or pay the hilton 3 blocks away to use their lot. This would not bother me except that they were so busy that we would have to wait up to 15 minutes to get the car and then wait another 10-15 minutes when we returned.
We had a great time and would definantly return. I got the week through II for $225 so we certainly got our moneys worth.
We were totally disappointed!
We were suckered into buying a time share at this property. We were so excited to go down for a whole week. We have 3 girls, a 10 year old, a 2.5 year old and a 6 month old. This was a miserable experience! All of the imenities that we were sold won't be ready for 3 MORE YEARS! - the indoor pool, the gym, haven't been built yet. There was nothing for our girls to do! The outdoor pool was closed, there was a was an 8K and a marathon going on, so we couldn't rent bikes. We couldn't even drive anywhere, because the roads were blocked off most of the two days. The rude front desk staff were comptletly hateful! the DVD rental machine in the lobby was broken, and when I went to complain to the front desk, my daughter broke one of the little knick knacks on a table in the lobby - they charged us $100, something that insurance would have covered. They acted like she had the plague. We found old open candy in the couch and the bed in the other room was broken, wood was sticking out the bottom. The concierge was never there, and we later learned the concierge was only there to sell us more timeshares. There was NOTHING for us to do, so we left on Monday after we had "paid" for a whole week. This was a horrible trip. We not only don't want to go back to this hotel, we don't want to go back to VA beach and will take a loss on the time share to get rid of it. I know I am forgetting something, but let's just say it was terrible!
Nice Resort, Rude Employee's
First of all I have to give "Ocean beach" their due for being a very modern/upscale Resort. My girlfriend and I were in town deciding on a place to stay for a few days. We walked in and encountered a very nice front desk employee name Deidra. She actually sold us "Ocean Beach". We settled for a two night stay. Having such a wonderful time in our one bedroom suite, complete with full kitchen, jacuzzi bath, and flat screen television. On our second evening we decided that we wanted to stay two additional nights. We were returning to the hotel so we just stopped by the front desk. The rude employee stated that our room was only available for one more night, did she bother to check any other rooms in the hotel, NO... We settled for the one extra night at that time. I then asked for a bike rental. She said they didn't have any but some sister properties did, well she couldn't find the information, gave up and roughly placed a coupon booklet in front of me and said "I'm pretty sure you can find one in here". I didn't tell her I had three of them in my car already. I thought front desk was their for guest services. I held my peace and went to my room disgusted. I called down to the front desk and asked for a manager, the same lady that handled us roughy answered the phone and told me she was the manager which I later discover was not true. Let me tell you after this ordeal I couldn't enjoy my evening, I couldn't sleep for being so furious. I had rather slept in my car than rest knowing she was at the front desk. We had conveintly found corporate's telephone number. The woman I spoke with there was very understanding and profusely apologized for all the troubles, she didn't offer any excuses. She asked me to hold tight for a moment and within three minutes the phone rang, it was the real front desk manager from the afternoon before. She actually called basically defending her employee's actions, stating that she didn't see how her employee handled us roughly. At that very moment I politely said you can cancel my extra night, I'm outta here, I'll be down to check out!! Again I'll say this was a very nice modern/upscale Resort, but one bad apple can spoil the whole bunch.
Do not stay here!
First of all, this hotel from the outside looks very beautiful and grand. From the moment we stepped foot in the lobby that is where the troubles started. The desk clerk at the Front Desk was very rude and informed us that they had lost our reservation!!! It had taken them at least 20 minutes to get the new reservation in place and accidentally double charging my credit card. The room we were assigned was no better in terms of cleanliness. There was dirt and dust all over the floor and our family didn't feel so safe there for our trip. Ther was no indoor pool in the hotel, only an outdoor pool which was not open during our stay. The price wasn't the greatest. We left after the first out of five nights and went to a better hotel down the street. Do not stay here at all!!!
Loved it
I stayed at this hotel for my birthday in January. It is really a beautiful hotel with excellent amenities. It is further down on the beach but that is what I was looking for. The decor of hotel and the rooms are very modern and I loved it. I plan to stay here again and it is worth the money.

Behind-the-scenes video of Potter actress Evanna Lynch's 'Runway' cover shoot
Back in October, Evanna Lynch appeared on the front cover of the Fall 2012 edition of fashion magazine Runway, for which a behind-the-scenes video has since been posted by the director.
Shot against a winter wonderland themed backdrop, Evanna looks stunning modelling an array of evening gowns in the midst of a fake snow storm. The video shows the actress being prepared for the shoot as well as revealing her playful side as she teases the owl perched on her wrist.
Thanks to Evan Romine for sending the video over.

When organizations work well, they allow ordinary people to do extraordinary things. That's because they can be powerful vehicles for combining our strengths in a way that makes the whole far greater than the sum of the parts.
Read Whole Story
These behemoths undoubtedly made a worldwide impact, but some of the biggest game changers aren't happening on a global scale. They aren't even happening in Silicon Valley. Midwestern entrepreneurs are proving a knack for finding niches and solving problems.
Sometimes what looks at first like a game-changer is seen in retrospect as a sustaining innovation instead. And that's no failure.
Can a business innovate if it's not trying? Have you ever been in a company meeting where the word innovation is tossed around quite a bit? I have experienced this in my career with both small and large companies.
What sort of person is it who can shape new ideas and bring them to life as businesses? Put another way, is an innovator's temperament born or is it built? We say it's built.

Are some people just born curious? Or can curiosity be cultivated? The answer matters because curiosity is a necessity for innovation. If curiosity isn't instinctive among your collaborators then you need to bring it to life.
Every day, our increasingly independent children and adolescents are faced with coolers full of beverage and energy drink options, and they must have innovative and attractive milk alternatives that make it easier to make the nutritionally smart choice.
I'll begin where the majority of successful entrepreneurs begin--"follow your passion." It may be a shopworn phrase, but this advice is as valid today for how to succeed in business as it was a hundred years ago, and it has certainly proven true for me.
We often benchmark companies to learn best practices, but in people management, we rarely benchmark our practices by looking at high-performing individuals.
One of the greatest benefits of an open innovation platform for a financial institution is that they can honestly say that they listen to what clients and potential clients want and, perhaps, more importantly what they need.
My earliest memory is being asked, "What do you want to be when you grow up?" Without hesitation, I answered, "Princess," with a capital P. This had everything to do with wanting people to do my bidding and nothing to do with wanting a pink dress.
Students of reasoning styles can boost their success at convincing others of the wisdom of a new idea by identifying and adapting to the logic filters of decision makers. Sizing up a situation realistically lets us know what to expect when we're pitching a new idea, and how to make the most of it.
Creativity still is central to our success. We need and cherish women and men who proudly identify themselves as creatives. But now they work, along with the rest of us, under an umbrella of inventiveness. Side by side with other inventors.
Very public efforts to improve health and prevent disease by eating right have also spurred the food and beverage industries to develop promising and innovative products that will help individuals as well as stimulate companies' sales.
From the perspective of technology breakthroughs -- and the industries and good jobs that often result from them -- the 20th century can fairly be called the American Century. But the outlook for the 21st century is far less clear.
Every corporation is divided between the need of skilled employees and the fear of training workers that can possibly leave and take their skills -- and investment -- to another company. So what do we do?
Back in 1997, before it was streaming a billion hours of Internet television a month, Netflix was a startup. They had a fairly standard vacation polic...
From an educator's perspective, my experience is that on a small scale, a partnership which involves industry, educators and innovative thinking can lead to great things.
Over the last ten years businesses have been on a quest to humanize, to become closer to customers. This changing role is leading consumers to ask not only, 'How can you make my life better?' they are asking 'What are you building to make the world better?'
Not having a mobile strategy is a "recipe for disruption", with a dash of eventual panic thrown in. The age mobile is still young enough for brands to get on board with it. That means larger budgets and greater focus on the road ahead.
The truth is that most company leaders are too narrow in defining their competitive landscape or market space. They fail to see the potential for "non-traditional" competitors.
The first thing I need from you is encouragement to take a bigger view of our business sector. We need to show a willingness to press traditional boundaries so we can liberate our thinking to see pockets of opportunity we may have overlooked.

Glottic cancer patients may regain speech with aid of pseudolarynx
An ingenious surgical procedure developed in Europe is being used to create a pseudolarynx out of body tissues in patients who must undergo a laryngectomy. Although a permanent tracheostomy tube is usually still required, patients can regain speech quickly and without great effort.The operation can be performed only in patients with glottic carcinoma (carcinoma confined to the intrinsic part of the larynx) because the upper part of the trachea is needed for the pseudolarynx. The surgeon also tries to save the cricoid cartilage. The operation can be done in patients who already have had radiation therapy and other surgical procedures.George A. Sisson, MD, professor and chairman of the Department of Otolaryngology and Maxillofacial Surgery at Northwestern University Medical School and Northwestern Memorial Hospital, Chicago, is one of two surgeons in the United States who has performed the

Subject Re: International Criminal Court Complaint Filed Against Bush, Cheney, Rumsfeld, Tenet, Rice, Gonzales By Prof. Francis A. Boyle
Dear Dr. Francis Boyle:
In reference to your complaint filed with the ICC against the previous errand-boys who occupied the White House, would it be rude to notice that the higher order bits of using 911 to "goosestep the herrenvolk across international frontiers" ; the subsequent "shock and awe" visitations upon largely civilian population-centers and civilian infrastructures ; the decimation of millions of Iraqis/Afghanis ; subverting of the United States into a pre-planned police-state ; fabricating crises upon crises to propose pre-planned solutions in order to systematically usurp national sovereignty as per the diabolical modus operandi set by the Council on Foreign Relations in their own documents: "In short, the 'house of world order' will have to be built from the bottom up, rather than from the top down. It will look like a great 'booming, buzzing confusion' to use William James' famous description of reality, but an end run around national sovereignty, eroding it piece by piece will accomplish much more than the old-fashioned frontal assault." – have all been overlooked to pursue the relatively lower order crimes of "extraordinary rendition" upon a few individuals with the highly dubious statement: "I doubt very seriously that the Accused would have inflicted these criminal practices upon 100 White Judeo-Christian men." ?
Known and very popular cialis coupon which gives all the chance to receive a discount for a preparation which has to be available and exactly cialis coupons has been found in the distant room of this big house about which wood-grouses in the houses tell.
For surely, it is inconceivable that you make complete obeisance to Western standards of morality by focussing on this lower order crime in the presence of un-addressed higher order monumental crimes – a morality which brazenly asserts from the highest pulpit of law in this land of the free:
"Nothing is more certain in modern society than the principle that there are no absolutes, that a name, a phrases, a standard has meaning only when associated with the considerations which give birth to nomenclature. To those who would paralyze our Government in the face of impending threat by encasing it in a semantic strait-jacket, we must reply that all concepts are relative." -- Justice Vinson, U.S. Supreme Court, 1951 AD
And as you venture to focus on the higher order real monumental crimes against humanity, we hope you will not remain content by focussing merely on the errand boys. That you will see the connections between the quest for "Global Governance", fabricated crises from pandemics to global warming, the seeding of "revolutionary times" across the "global zone of percolating violence" to make "imperial mobilization" possible which otherwise is "inconceivable in normal times", and the "history's actors" who drive war-mongering policies and orchestrate wretched events from their Zion in the Middle East to their Zion in the Western capitals, not the least of which is Washington DC, in the expectation of creating the ultimate "Zion that will light up all the world".
And that, as you pursue the highest order crimes, you will not shy away from going directly for the jugular of the prime-movers behind the scenes of all the war-mongering 'errand boys' fronting for them in the Western capitals as the duly elected representatives of a duped Western peoples, including those presently occupying the White House. This was, lamentably enough, already pleaded to no avail in the following editorial when your lonely fraternal brother, Mr. Vincent Bugliosi, courageously asserted that "Murder Trumps Torture", but inexplicably failed to also simultaneously assert the legal and moral commonsense that prime-movers trump trigger-pullers: Who is more guilty of monumental war crimes - the prime-movers or trigger pullers? April 09, 2009.
Attempted prosecution of state-criminals on 'petty charges' without also prosecuting their criminal aiders and abettors who 'legalize' and propagandistically justify their brazen acts of aggression, and therefore are entirely culpable in toto for "all the evil which follows" ; staying silent on punitive as well restitutive compensation for their victims, is a legal sham that is only waiting to be torn down by some courageous people. We hope, Dr. Francis Boyle, that you might be one such precedent setting spark which ignites the moral imagination of many to follow. The world has had enough from the dispensers of victor's justice!
Thank you.

NEW YORK (AP) – "The SpongeBob Movie: Sponge Out of Water" finally unseated Clint Eastwood's runaway hit "American Sniper" at the weekend box office, while a pair of high-priced fantasies flopped.
According to estimates Sunday, Paramount Pictures' "SpongeBob Movie" earned $ 56 million, a huge debut for the animated Nickelodeon big-screen transfer. That finally pushed "American Sniper" off the top spot after a three-week… Continue reading Weekend Box Office: 'SpongeBob' Dethrones 'American Sniper,' Takes No. 1 Spot

As you know some well-known PHP frameworks have provide front-controller pattern and access control mechanism. Also there are some micro framework that provide front-controller pattern.
I have surveyed some such frameworks and yet could not make a decision, My concerns is:
- Stability
- Stability
- Stability
- Performance
- Security
I do not expect any thing more form my core framework, I will use pure PHP or I may use specific module from various frameworks.
Currently I have experience in ZF 1.x, ZF 2.x, Phalcon frameworks. And I also read Lithium docs, but I found no one suitable for my project.
Also as per this, this, this and this pages ZF, Symfony, CakePHP, FuelPHP are not efficient frameworks (fat frameworks).
Can you please suggest a suitable framework or a combination of moudules that satisfy such requirement?
Also see this related (but old) question.

In Pictures: Revealing the giant World War One poppy
10 July 2014
Last updated at 14:19
Take a look behind the scenes as students from Bohunt School help to form a giant poppy as part of WW1 tributes
Thousands of letters have been written to the Unknown Soldier - a symbol of World War One. Students at Hampshire's Bohunt School, including School Reporters, have taken part in the project and came together to use their letters to make up a giant poppy. Here is the story of their day in their own words and photographs.
"Every student at Bohunt School took part in the project as part of World War One tributes. Bohunt students Lisa, Wills, Hugo and Alice were filmed by the BBC reading their letters. Here they are sitting with reporter Robert Hall, while Grant the cameraman got School Reporter Harry to help out recording the sound!"
"To mark the centenary of World War One, Bohunt students have been participating in a range of activities, including drama, artwork and creative writing. School Reporter Ruxi took these photographs showing how Expressive Arts students have put their creative minds to work on memorial artwork."
"One of the special guests to witness the event was author Kate Pullinger who is one of the creators of the Letters to the Unknown Soldier project with Neil Bartlett. She said it was 'amazing' that everyone in our school got involved. She was interviewed live on BBC News."
"School Reporters Eleanor and Ruxi spoke to Kate, who told them and co-creator Neil were inspired by the Unknown Soldier statue on Platform One of Paddington Station. Kate said: 'We will see a lot of centenary activities that emphasize on being quiet to remember but we wanted to do something that involved people expressing their opinions on WW1 and what it means to them.'"
"We have never seen a satellite van before so it was really fun to see it on our school field. This was how the BBC broadcast us creating the poppy live. To film the poppy mosaic from above they had a camera on a raised post."
"The giant poppy mosaic was created by us all holding up red cardboard with our letters on the back and visiting primary school holding a piece of black paper to make the poppy's centre. We had a few rehearsals so everyone held them up together at the same time before going live!"
We spoke to students and teachers who were part of the poppy mosaic and asked them why they think we should commemorate the WW1 centenary. Stan,12, said: "Because if we forget we won't remember the tragedies of World War One and it could happen again." Melissa,,15, said: "Because it's a really important part of history that affects our lives today." Science teacher Miss Wilson said: "To me, World War One means the sacrifice that other people have made so that we can live with the liberties we have today."
"When everyone was in position and after a few rehearsals, the cameras were finally on we created a giant poppy live! School Reporter Lisa managed got a quick photo of Robert Hall as he prepared to report for BBC News."
"The students got ready - and then it was time to reveal the poppy!"
"The giant poppy mosaic was created by us all holding up red cardboard at the same time and the cricket crease became the poppy stem. School Reporter Ellie, who helped form the poppy, said: "When you're holding up the paper you can't imagine how it's going to look" and Mr Green, a Humanities teacher whose department lead this project, said it was 'a triumph and testament to the school'."
"After the filming Eleanor spoke to Robert Hall, BBC News reporter. He told us he still gets quite nervous when broadcasting live but thinks it was really impressed. He said "It was like a flash mob and a unique way to mark the centenary""
"Bohunt School is planning more Great War commemorations next term and we are going to keep all the letters got future students to read. It had been great for us to record and report on this special day!"

Ludlow man to be arraigned on $8,000 theft chargeJuly 29,2013MOUNT HOLLY — A Ludlow man is scheduled to be arraigned today on charges related to the April theft of nearly $8,000 in sporting equipment.
Vermont State Police said they responded to a burglary complaint at a residence on Fenn Road in Mount Holly on April 12. According to police, someone broke into the home and stole a pair of Specialized racing bicycles — valued at $7,600 — and some ski equipment.
Police later found the bicycles for sale and allegedly traced them back to Justin Clouart, 24. According to police, Clouart was in possession of the equipment around the time of the burglary and sold the equipment to others.
Friday, police located Clouart during a traffic stop in Weathersfield. Police charged Clouart with possession of stolen property. He was held in Springfield prison on $12,000 bail and is expected to appear today in Rutland criminal court.MORE IN This Just InEmployee charged

In high school, Adam Wainwright was an athletic and academic standout at Glynn Academy in Brunswick, Georgia. A multi-sport athlete, Wainwright excelled in football, but with a fastball over 90 mph and a batting average over .500 at times, his future would lie in baseball, and in 2000 he was named the Gatorade Georgia Player of the Year. He garnered considerable interest from colleges and universities offering both academic and baseball scholarships, but when the Atlanta Braves selected him 29th overall in the first round of the 2000 MLB draft, Wainwright chose to forgo college and head straight to the pros.
In 2006, Wainwright made the St. Louis Cardinals' opening day roster as a relief pitcher, and he became a closer late in his rookie season, saving the series-clinching game of both the National League Championship Series and World Series. The following season, Wainwright returned to starting pitching, a role in which he has remained, except for 2011, which he missed due to Tommy John surgery.
Wainwright has emerged as an ace and has led the National League multiple times in wins, innings pitched and games started. He has multiple top-10 finishes in earned run average, strikeouts and complete games. In 2014, Wainwright became the first pitcher in Major League history to post nine of his first 18 starts with seven innings pitched and no runs allowed. Over his career, Wainwright has won more than 100 games, is a three-time All-Star selection, has won two Rawlings Gold Glove Awards and has finished in the top three in Cy Young Award balloting four different times. With 1,326 strikeouts in his career to date, Wainwright is second only to Bob Gibson in Cardinals franchise history for strikeouts.
Wainwright and his wife put their charitable energies into the Adam & Jenny Wainwright 25:35 Foundation, which got its start after he took a personal interest in helping build an orphanage and clean-water project for survivors of the 2010 earthquake in Haiti. The foundation grew out of this initial effort and still primarily supports orphanages and, through Water Missions International, clean water projects in needy areas around the world.
Fred Hutchinson Cancer Research Center is honored to welcome and pay tribute to Adam Wainwright as the 51st Hutch Award® winner.

If you are going to make the monumental decision to reject the love of Jesus and His offer of salvation, then at least avoid the trap of doing so for the wrong reason. In other words, get your money's worth out of your decision.
A lot of professing Christians today engage in premarital sex. Many of them feel their behavior is not that big of a deal to God. Is there a way to know for sure?
You and I are not smarter than God. Far from it. So when Jesus, who is God, says that one day people will "stand outside knocking and pleading" to get into heaven, He expects to be taken seriously. (see Luke 13:22-30) Jesus goes on in that passage to..
No one is required to be a skeptic of Christianity. It is a choice. Just like parenting is a choice. And one thing I find interesting is that Christian parents and non-Christian parents have many similar desires for their young children.
If you are a believer and you are already married to someone who is an unbeliever, God's Word tells you to stay married to your spouse (see 1 Cor. 7:12,13). If on the other hand, you are a single Christian who is considering getting married to an unb..

Returned from a 2 week holiday in the Siva Grand beach on March 1st. We had a really pleasant holiday and the weather was great for a break this time of year but it was very windy for the first 3 - 4 days. While the hotel could do with a bit of TLC, as it is a little shabby in certain areas, the staff are outstanding. Special mentions as follows, the hotel food and drink manager although I can't recall his name. My wife has an allergy to shellfish and we noticed that in all of the restaurants they were cooking prawns and meats on the same griddle. Once this was pointed out he introduced a second grill section for seafood only, thank you very much.
Best waiter in Shams reastaurant (the downstairs one) is Waled Mohammed, very attentive and had drinks waiting for us. We ordered once (one beer, one rose, one red and two waters) and he remembered the correct drinks every time.
Star of the hotel though is Ramadan, the bar tender in the cocktail bar half way up the stairs. From the first night when he waved us in he was pleasant, charming and witty, a real gem who was genuinely pleased to see us each evening, well done and thank you Ramadan.
We found drinks good and there was always a good selection of food especially at lunchtime. The Oasis restaurant has the usual soup and salad starters plus 2 meat and one fish selection but on top there is a Moroccan section, and Indian section, a chinese section, a pasta section plus a vegetarian pastry section. In addition to this you can have burgers, hotdogs or freshly baked pizza from the pool area, I dare anyone to go hungry.
One disappointment was the total lack of coral in the sea in front of the hotel. We went to Makadi Bay 18 months ago and were spoiled so unfortuantely we will not be going back to the Siva but thank you for a lovely break this time.
- Official Description (provided by the hotel):
- Enjoying one of the very best locations in Hurghada, the Siva Grand Beach delivers tradition with a twist. Choose from generously sized junior suites in the main building or rooms in the two storey bungalows in the grounds.

And it's within easy walking distance of a wide range of shops, restaurants and other activities too. ... more less

Mafia II is a third-person action-adventure video game, the sequel to Mafia: The City of Lost Heaven. It is developed by 2K Czech, previously known as Illusion Softworks, and is published by 2K Games. The game is set from 1943 to 1951 in Empire Bay (the name is a reference to New York's state nickname "The Empire State"), a fictional city based on San Francisco and New York City, with influences from Chicago and Detroit. The game features a completely open-ended game map of 10 square miles. No restrictions are included from the start of the game. There are around 50 vehicles in the game, as well as licensed music from the era.
AMD seem to hit a bit of wall at about the 110 FPS mark, which means we see very little difference at 1920 x 1200 and 1680 x 1050. At the high 2560 x 1600 resolution, though, we see a really strong boost in performance giving us a 100 FPS average.

The Cubs are one of baseball's oldest franchises, tracing their tradition back to the 1870s. The early years of Chicago baseball were relatively successful. In 1885 and 1886 the then-White Stockings tied and lost in back-to-back World Series behind player/manager Cap Anson. At the turn of the century, Chicago found a reason to celebrate. The Cubs made four World Series in a five-year span, winning their only two titles in 1907 and 1908. Chicago has frequently put together very good teams, but has not achieved that elusive third World Series title. After five World Series appearances between 1929 and 1945, the Cubs suffered through a long playoff drought spanning 38 seasons. Finally, behind star second baseman Ryne Sandberg, the Cubs won the NL East in 1984, but were knocked out of the playoffs in the NLCS by the San Diego Padres. Sandberg made the playoffs once more in 1989, then Sammy Sosa led the Cubs to two playoff appearances in 1998 and 2003, but each time Chicago failed to advance to the World Series. The Cubs returned to the postseason with a storm through the 2015 MLB playoffs, riding the stellar pitching of Jake Arrieta to a trip to the 2015 NLCS. Chicago has retired the numbers of six players from the club's long history. Score with TicketCity - the place to go for Chicago Cubs baseball tickets.

The Chicago Cubs were one of the most exciting teams in Major League Baseball a season ago, and come into the 2016 season with hopes of bringing a World Series title to Chicago. Manager Joe Maddon won his 3rd career Manager of the Year award, and has a young and talented Cubs roster believing that they can win in October. The key to the Cubs success this season will be their stellar starting pitching staff. Ace Jake Arrieta comes off a Cy Young season a year ago, and will have veteran aces Jon Lester and John Lackey behind him in the rotation. The Arrieta-Lester duo may be the best in all of baseball and will give the Cubs the high caliber arms that dominate in the postseason. The 2016 Chicago Cubs will also feature one of the most talented youngsters in the game, in 3rd baseman Kris Bryant, who looks to continue to rise up the list of stars in the National League. The Chicago Cubs are built to last and will be contenders once again to win the National League. 2016 Chicago Cubs tickets will give fans the chance to see one of the best teams in baseball at a renovated Wrigley Field.
Check out our Chicago Cubs Season Preview History page for previews of previous Cubs seasons.
The Cubs play their home games at historic Wrigley Field, located in Chicago, Illinois. Renovations to Wrigley Field in 2015 have pushed the capacity of the historic ballpark to over 42,000 Cubs fans. The oldest ballpark in the National League, Wrigley is unequivocally a must-see for any baseball fan. Head to the park to appreciate all the history that has taken place within the ivy covered walls. The Chicago Cubs dugout is on the Wrigley Field third base line in front of sections 12-16. Wrigley Field parking information is covered in our Cubs event guide.
St. Louis Cardinals, Chicago White Sox, Milwaukee Brewers
Cubs Cardinals is one of the best sporting events in the country. Fittingly the clubs first met in the 1885 World Series, and have been battling back and forth ever since. Both teams are in the top 5 in NL pennants and are two of the most accomplished clubs in baseball. This is one of the few original rivalries that has remained a divisional rivalry throughout realignment. Attending a game in this series is on the list of every baseball fan, and a highlight of every season.
No baseball rivalry has divided a town like Cubs-White Sox. Known as the Crosstown Classic, residents of Chicago are broken up into two categories "North Siders" and "South Siders" based solely on allegiance to one of these teams. Played over 100 times since the first meeting in the 1906 World Series, this series is separated by only a few games. Baseball fans in the Midwest know this as one of the most fun matchups in interleague play, and it is probably the most exciting inner-city rivalry in baseball.
While many of the Cubs Rivalries are over a century old, the rivalry with the Brewers has only been around about a decade. The Brewers moved from the American League to the National League Central in 1998 and have been battling with the Cubs ever since. The rivalry really took off with both teams at the top of the division in the late 2000's. Since then the Brewers and Cubs have very evenly matched, with the overall series only separated by only a few games.
As one of the original two charter members in the National League, the Chicago Cubs have been around since 1876. The Cubs have won two World Series titles in their history, but they haven't won a championship since 1907. This drought is the longest current streak in North American sports. Throughout their history, they have won over 15 NL pennants and 4+ division titles and will look to add to that number in upcoming seasons.
Gates open 2 hours before the first pitch at Wrigley field.
Wrigley Field is located near some of Chicago's best restaurants. The Dug Out Sports Bar & Grill, The Stretch Bar and Grill, and Rebel Bar & Grill are three of our favorite sports bars. Chicago is known for having unbelievable pizza places. Big G's Pizza, The Art of Pizza, and Homeslice are all worth checking out. If you are looking to try something new, visit Dragon Lady Lounge. Dragon Lady has plenty of vegan and vegetarian options and has a fun atmosphere. Mexican food lovers should try Lindo Guadalajara, or Tony's Burrito Mex. Other great places in the area are Sultan's Market, Rustic House, and Paddy Long's.
Parking at Wrigley is limited. There are a couple of parking lots located to the west of Wrigley field on the north and south sides of Waveland Avenue. Most of the available parking is on the north side of Grace Street at Clark and Seminary. Chicago has great public transportation options. The CTA Red Line is the best way to get to and from Wrigley. Trains are usually packed with Cubs fans and allow you to skip the hassle of finding a parking spot and fighting traffic.
Children 2 years old and younger are allowed to enter Wrigley Field without a ticket, but must sit on a guardian's lap for the duration of the game. It is best practice to have proof of your child's age with you to avoid any hassles at the gate.

"I love my cards they turned out great!! The only thing I would have changed would have been the colors I didn't edit my pictures before sending them to print, I think the color was not as sharp as I would have wanted them to be but besides that they turned out perfect!!"
"I ordered this design with Tiny Prints and have received so many compliments on my Christmas Card this year. I had originally ordered from Shutterfly and when I received the cards I was disappointed with the quality. That being said, Shutterfly had excellent customer service. I immediately went back to Tiny Prints and ordered this one. I was ecstatic when I received the cards - they definitely exceeded my expectations."
"Great card, but the fold is kind of strange. Despite that, it gave us plenty of spaces to put photos and get the message across Functionality of the site this year was poor, but the customer service rep I spoke with was efficient and made up for it."
"This is exactly what I was hoping for! Thick quality paper, clear photo printing, looked just like the preview on my computer did. Everything was true to color and fit. Can't wait to mail these cards out this year! Very pleased!"
"I absolutely loved this card just as much as I have loved every product I have received from Tiny Prints. The printing was great. I selected the standard glossy finish even though, I'm normally a pearl finish girl. It came out great with the rustic look of the background. Couldn't be happier!"

MOORE HAVEN, Fla. (AP) - Authorities say at least six people were killed in a tractor-trailer crash in Glades County.
According to the Florida Highway Patrol, the tractor-trailer kept going through a stop sign and hit another van Monday morning. The van rolled over and some passengers were ejected.
The highway patrol reports that six people in the van were killed. The driver of the tractor-trailer was injured and taken to a hospital. His condition is not yet known.
Meanwhile, officials are cleaning up the scene, which left about 50 gallons of diesel fuel spilled on the road. One lane is open.

text: I am using external software to manage newsletter subscriptions. On the site I have a form, once people subscribe they need to be forwarded to a page that is explaining them they are getting an email they need to confirm. I thought that making this page private was the solution, it is when you are logged in as admin but not for others. At the end of the procedure people get on a page where they can download an ebook, after payment, this page also should not be reachable like that. How can I do this??
