Local gymnasts earn trip to regional competition

HOUMA -- If you pass down Venture Boulevard, you can be sure to find an industrial company, catering company and even a gun range.
Travel even further down the road, you will find a one-story building that may look like the rest, but once you step inside, is completely different than every other building on the street.
Located at the very back end of Venture is the James Academy of Gymnastics where former collegiate gymnast Nicole James is the owner and coach of a squad with three gymnasts traveling to Raleigh, N.C. to participate in the regional championships.
James company can lay claim to having the two best gymnasts in the state in Alexandra Fuselier who took first in the all-around competition winning all but one of her events, and Jenna Caletri who placed second.
Gymnasts are placed in levels from one through 10 before entering elite status and both Fuselier and Caletri are Level 8s and the regional championship is the highest meet both can compete in at their level.
"As Level 8s this is as far as they can go, but they will be up against gymnasts from Mississippi, Tennessee, Louisiana, Arkansas, Georgia, North and South Carolina and Florida," James said. "This is such a great accomplishment for these girls, and I know they are going to do great at regionals."
Fuselier, who is only 11-years-old, is the youngest of those traveling to Raleigh and has been in gymnastics since she was three. By the time she was six, she was already a level 4 gymnast.
"We practice four hours a day sometimes everyday, but I love gymnastics because its fun and its really good exercise," Fusilier said.
Placing second at the state championships, Caletri is still pleased with the effort she gave and is ready to do well in North Carolina.
"It felt good to finish second in state, because it showed that all the hard work I put in paid off," Caletri said. "Hopefully, I can do just as good, if not better at regionals."
The 15-year-old student at nearby Vandebilt Catholic said she finds it hard sometimes to hang out with her friends, but the ones that have seen her participate in meets sometimes wish they could do what she can.
"After my friends watch me during meets, they come up to me and tell me ëWow, I didnt know you could do that," she said. "Even my friends who are cheerleaders are like ëWe can do this, but we cant do that so thats pretty cool too."
Jenna LaFont is the third person that gets to travel with the team but only as an alternate.
While participating in the state championships, LaFont sustained an injury to her right foot and at one point couldnt even walk on it. But instead of dropping out of the competition, she battled through the injury and completed all of her events earning her alternate position.
"My foot was taped three times because it hurt so badly," LaFont said. "Its going to be fun watching regionals, and at least I know I gave everything I could to try to compete there."
If having a coach in James who was a collegiate gymnast at Centenary isnt enough, maybe an assistant coach that trained an Olympic gold medalist is.
Victor Firsov, who at one point was a gymnast himself, was a trainer in Russia in the late 1980s. During that time he started working with children but little did he expect that one of those kids, Vladimir Artemov, would go on to win the all-around gold at the 1988 Summer Olympics in Seoul, South Korea.
Virsov moved to the United States after the USA Gymnastics Organization asked him to coach in America, where he started in Mississippi before coaching at JAG. Virsov believes that the athletes he works with are very receptive to his teaching styles and are open to the way he approaches the sport.
"Our athletes know what they have to do if they want to advance in the sport, and are very open to what we try to teach them here at the academy," Virsov said. "Each one works just as hard as the next and we have the trophies in our case that prove it."
Just 21/2 years removed from the opening of JAG, this is the first time the academy has sent any gymnast to regionals, and James hopes that this is the beginning of better things for the academy.
"Anytime you have athletes that can get to the highest level of competition they can at such a young age, is very encouraging for the future of our organization," James said. "Especially in an area where gymnastics may not be the forefront of the sports landscape, there is still a possibility that one day it might be."
When the group left for the meet on Friday, as they walked out of the JAG building, they saw the photos of American gymnasts such as Paul Hamm adorning the walls of the academy. They hope to one day have their own pictures up there, and according to Fuselier, that is her ultimate goal.
"I definitely want to get to the Olympics, and win a gold medal, and if I work hard enough, I know I can," she said.

|Town and union council
|Dera Ismail Khan District
|Time zone
Paniala is a small town located in the north of district D.I. Khan of Khyber-Pakhtunkhwa about 55 km away from D I Khan and approx 300 km from provincial capital Peshawar. The Link Road (also known as Gilloti Road) from main Indus Highway (Peshawar Road) that connects with Paniala is of about 18 km. It is a submontane settlement and one of the oldest in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa Province in Pakistan.
The name Paniala originated from "Panjh Naala", which means 5 Naalas, stemming from Oobo Sir (in Pashto), which means "head of water", and then combines into one form. The water is then supplied to whole of the village and nearby towns for feeding and cultivating the fields. And then from passage of time the name Panjh Naala changed into Paniala.
Another origin of the name Paniala is attributed to the meaning of combination of Urdu words, pani and wala. Pani wala thus meant "a place with water". This was the only oasis town in the surrounding desert area of about 30 km radius where even drinking water was not available to the population around, and the habitat around would fetch drinking water from the natural fountains/springs and KAREZs of Paniala. Thus the name Pani wala became Paniala with the passage of time. Water is, nonetheless, still supplied to numerous villages on the east, west and south from Paniala even now through pipelines, though.
The green grassland comprises sandy area and a population of 120,000 citizens. The inhabitant comprises Marwats, Khels, Hashmis and Qureshis. The local language spoken is Pashto with soft and sweet dialect. The prominent shrine of Haji Baba and two important graves of Sahabis (RA) are also situated.
Famous fruits of the town are Mangoes and Dates. "Dhakki" is one of the famous and delicious amongst all dates and is a major part of export.
The famous nearby picnic spots are TOY (a natural water resort and play ground)and the mountainous hilly region of Sheikh Badin that comprises lush green forest, an old nonfunctioning post office and police station of British time.
The main tribe is the Pathans and its subtribes are: SAIN KHEL, Achackzai Durani, Siraj Khel, Malana, Mehmood Khel, Mala Khel, Mansoor Khel, Hassan Khel, Madda Khel, Masti Khel(many of them had migrated to other cities i.e. Bhakkar), Qalander Khel, Shadi Khel, Dhedi, Mumrez Khel, karaki Khel, Sangher khel, Syed, Mada Khel, Changa Khel, Quresh, Kundi,Baloch, Utta Khel, Sharbi Khel, Merwan Khel, Sharqi Khel, Mehmand,Zargar, sheikh, Slemi Khel and Ira Khel etc.Actually, all these tribes are the extensions of Blach Pathans which is partially different from Marwat tribe.
Paniala town is facilitated with a Government Hospital, a Degree College for male and high schools for both male and female. There are four public high schools, Al-Hira Model High School, Pakistan Campus High School, Muslim Public High School & City School. There are 3 primary schools for boys and 3 primary schools for girls. A post office, a bank HBL(Habib Bank Limited), an agriculture office and lari ada are also in Paniala. There is one football stadium & many popular football clubs in Paniala, which born many talented players like Jaffar Khan Captain Pakistan National Football Team.
The town has many scenic places in the surrounding peaks and the town is also famous for the Shrine of Haji Baba. Mazarate Saadat and mansoor khel's are at the top of a little mountain. Kot Ghundi is also a place form where a greatest scene of Paniala can be looked. Toy is a place where young, old and little kids play after noon daily.

ETNA, Italy -- Giro d'Italia favorite Alberto Contador surged to his first stage win of this year's race Sunday and took the leader's pink jersey from Pieter Weening.
The three-time Tour de France winner finished the 104.7-mile ninth stage from Messina in 4 hours, 54 minutes, 8 seconds, with Jose Rujano three seconds behind.
"The plan worked today," Contador said. "We had some doubts at times because the race was so slow, but we thought we should try it. [Vincenzo] Nibali stayed with me for a while, but I went and managed to hold on for the win.
"As far as I'm concerned I don't expect to win every stage as long as I'm close to the winner. I felt good today and my legs were good, so I had to try something."
Stefano Garzelli then led the chasing pack across the line for third, 50 seconds behind Contador.
Overall, Contador has a 59-second lead over Kanstantsin Sivtsov.
Earlier in the week there were some fears as to whether this stage would even go ahead after volcanic activity opened a crater on the east face of Mount Etna -- Europe's most active volcano -- and sprayed ash down on Catania and the surrounding countryside.
Organizers had to work hard to clear ash and debris off the roads ahead of the stage, but by the start it was clear and a large number of supporters lined the roadsides.

The built-in windows mixer, which can be accessed through Volume Control, allows users to change the output volumes of individual applications. I would like something similar but with additional functionality.
I want to be able to control the output levels for each output speaker. For example, if I had a 5.1 channel device connected and correctly configured in Windows, I would like to be able to mute the front and centre speakers.
I also want to be able to remap the output sound channels to different physical speakers. For example, I would like to remap the front left and right speakers to the rear ones.
I would like to know if there is any generic Windows software or configuration that I can use to do this. I want a generic solution that is not specific to any particular sound card or output devices, and it should work on at least Windows Vista.

Of the next big names to cross the planes of arbitration in Major League Baseball, you might find yourself coming across names such as Rasmus, Bruce, Hughes, Chamberlin, Cueto, or Upton -- (twice). The next stock of brash, young superstars are all making their mark for a 'small' claim of the all American dollar!
But here in turn lies the question: who is more greedy, the player or the team signing them?
While most armchair Americans watching their favorite past time will continue to throw out ideas of what a player should make, or about how ridiculous it is that the Yankees have a player that makes more than all of the Florida Marlins do combined. Why is it that we should blame the future stars of baseball for asking for crazy money? There are teams that run their organizations head and shoulders better than 70% of the rest of the league. They run cheaper, more efficiently, but are they really benefiting?
Take for example the recent signing of Evan Longoria (6 years, 17.5 million or 2.7per) and for all intents and purposes leave out the bonuses because they're not for certain things. Arguably the most talented rookie in this year's class was sent down to Triple-A just prior to final roster cut so that the team could bring him back up after the deadline to give them that extra year of service and avoid arbitration hearings later in his contract. Longoria is expected to be the next Alex Rodriguez at third base (or at least offensively) if you will consider Rodriguez a true third baseman. There won't be much argument that Longoria will certainly be better defensively at the hot corner, but the offensive potential is endless. So why sign him now versus waiting to bring him up normally and continue to pay him the little salary he is currently signed at? It all comes full circle back to one thing - MONEY!
If Longoria even fulfills most of his potential on the field, the Rays will have made a huge play for one of the best players in the game at a position that's hard to come by value wise. The reason they sign him this quick is because if Longoria is still there at the end of six seasons, he's more likely to re-sign to stay with one team and it's cheaper on the team's payroll while he continues to build on his milestones. Sure you may argue about his loyalty to remain with what has been one of baseball's worst teams for its entirety, but look at what they are offering now. They have plans to open a new stadium in 2009-10 that looks to be one of (if not the) best stadiums in Major League Baseball. Not to mention they have one of the best farm systems in baseball, and they're going to continue getting better. By the time Longoria's first contract begins to come to an end, the Rays will be a contender.
So in hindsight the Rays look like complete genius' here, but what are the motives for the rest of MLB? Cincinnati has the likes of three players they will have to bargain with at the same time in Johnny Cueto, Edinson Volquez, and eventually Jay Bruce. The St. Louis Cardinals will have Colby Rasmus, and both the Rays & Diamondbacks with the Upton twins. While all are highly touted (and just these to name a few), and all will come with a high price tag, what do those teams have to offer those players other than money? The Rays we already know, and the Diamondbacks are a winning team. So what about the Cardinals and Reds? Both have newer ballparks, but neither farm system really blows you away, so could it be that players see the future outside the box and then force organizations to pay them the extra money to stay? The Yankees are building a new stadium, but that's not really why you play for the Yankees is it? No, it's because they'll pay anybody anything if they think you'll help them win (throw in Randy Johnson-Carl Pavano-Jason Giambi jokes here). Boston is a 'team first' organization that looks to get a new stadium sooner than later (and one could only hope they'll tear that one down and just build an exact replica where the old stood), and soon they'll be talking with Buccholz, Ellsbury, and who knows what else in their loaded system.
You could go on talking about every organization, but you'll continue to see the same thing over and over, no new developments and a lackluster farm system. So who do we blame for the economical blunders in baseball: the players or the teams? Or would you go as far to say that it's MLB's fault as a whole for not putting a cap on teams spending, and sharing the revenue with all teams top to bottom? You have to admit it's the worst idea in the world to know that you run a league where one player is actually making more than an entire team! I think Major League Baseball has to take a major step in restoring order, and regaining balance. Do I think it will happen? Probably not before Bill Clinton gets another term in office, but one can hold his breath. If you see me around, just ask for "Ole Blue".

First Aid & Emergencies
Understanding Sprains and Strains -- Diagnosis and Treatment
In this article
How Do I Know If I Have a Sprain or Strain?
Sprains and strains, from twisted ankles to aching backs, are among the most common injuries. A sprain is a stretching or tearing of ligaments, the tough, fibrous bands of tissue that connect bones to one another at a joint. A strain is a stretching or tearing of muscle tissue, commonly called a pulled muscle.
To diagnose a sprain or strain, your doctor will take a detailed medical history and do a physical exam of the affected area. Often, the history and exam are all that's needed. If your doctor is concerned about further injury, X-rays may help rule out a bone fracture. In some cases, an MRI (magnetic resonance imaging) is advised to check for ruptured tissues.

How to Treat Crying and Colic in Babies
Coping with a colicky baby can be terribly difficult for parents. Remember that colic is common and it won't last forever. It starts at approximately 3 weeks of age and is usually gone by the time a baby is 3 months old.
Read the How to Treat Crying and Colic in Babies article > >
What Are the Treatments for Sprains and Strains?
Treatment of both sprains and strains focuses on control of the initial pain and swelling, followed by adequate rest to allow healing.
Most sprains and strains heal in two to three weeks. Doctors routinely prescribe the RICE treatment -- rest, ice, compression, and elevation of the injured body part immediately following the injury.
A sprained ankle or knee often calls for crutches to keep weight off the joint for a day or two while it heals. In cases of moderate sprains, splinting or casting may be needed. Elastic bandages may then be used to minimize swelling and support or immobilize the injured area while it heals. Injured joints can be elevated above the level of the heart to minimize swelling. To speed healing, your doctor may prescribe medications like aspirin or ibuprofen to reduce inflammation and pain or recommend physical therapy to increase range of motion and stability of the joint after the initial swelling is controlled.

In the Village: Grateful for hard times? Wealth is not the reward for righteousness
In my last column, I mentioned that there's a stanza in Emily H. Woodmansee's poem "As Sisters in Zion" that I wish we could add as a fourth verse in the next edition of our hymnbook:
The Lord hath established the cities of Zion,
The poor of His people are trusting in Him,
He makes us a source for His poor to rely on;
Oh! shall we not brighten the eyes that are dim.
This verse is a reminder that Relief Society was founded as a part of the spirit of consecration, that it was charged with taking care of the poor and providing for those who were building the temple.
But this is a matter for all the Saints, not just for the sisters.
When I wrote the script for the current Hill Cumorah Pageant, I was assigned to go back to the Book of Mormon and find its message.
Overwhelmingly, the primary message was the Atonement of Christ, and that is where I focused the script of the pageant.
But the second message was also pervasive: It was an often-overlooked aspect of the "pride cycle."
We so often hear the pride cycle explained as "righteousness leads to prosperity, prosperity to sin, sin to destruction, destruction to repentance, and repentance to prosperity again."
But in this reading of the Book of Mormon, I was struck by the fact that in every case but one, the sin that led to destruction was explicitly stated to be pride in wealth, demonstrated by persecution and mistreatment of the poor.
Mormon and Moroni saw our time and shaped their abridgment to teach us what we need to know. Clearly, we needed to know of the Atonement of Christ. Just as clearly, they thought we needed to be reminded again and again that pride in our wealth and persecution of the poor are the sins that lead a people to destruction.
I have often in the past written about how zoning laws deform our wards in the Mormon Corridor, where Saints are thick on the ground and wards take up only a few blocks of a neighborhood.
The result is that there are often rich wards and poor wards. I have seen and experienced the way that people in rich wards too often get the attitude that the poor "man has brought upon himself his misery," an attitude that King Benjamin warns can cause us to perish forever, and have "no interest in the kingdom of God" (Mosiah 4:17-18).
This attitude is often expressed in a "doctrine" that is utterly false and yet extremely widespread in the church: that if you are righteous, you will make money.
That is one of the world's favorite lies: that people with money are somehow better than people without it.
It is true that a righteous people will, as a group, prosper materially, if only because they will be at peace and have a spirit of cooperation, and all will be working hard for their family's sustenance, and they will look out for each other.
But each household or individual is not necessarily going to have wealth as the result of righteousness. We will have "enough," but often the blessing is to teach us what "enough" really means.
The world bestows money, not by merit, but by rules which reward some people far beyond anything they need or deserve, while many who deserve much more are "rewarded" with far less money than they need.
What worries me most is that too many Saints judge themselves by the world's false standard.
They say in their hearts: Haven't I been paying tithing, fulfilling my callings, teaching and praying with my family, obeying the commandments?

The chase ends. Then the Chase begins.
Saturday night at Richmond, 12 drivers will move on to NASCAR's playoffs, while the others will languish in their own motor oil. Sitting 11th in points, Denny Hamlin looks pretty safe for the Chase, since he's 76 points in front of 12th, but he'll need to make sure he doesn't wreck. Still, any finish 21st or better gets Hamlin in. So the real drama will come down to three drivers competing for one final spot:
Clint Bowyer, 12th place. Bowyer won the first time around at Richmond, and while he probably had only the fourth- or fifth-best car that day, a performance like that would guarantee him a Chase berth. Bowyer has a history of steadiness in big spots, so unless someone wrecks him, it seems unlikely that he'll make a mistake that causes him to spit the bit. In five career starts at this track, he's never finished worse than 12th.
David Ragan, 13th place, 17 points behind. Ragan finished just 17th the first time around this year at Richmond, but in this event last season, he finished third, serving notice that he wasn't just a reality-TV winner without real driving chops. The past three months or so, Ragan has been as steady as they come, and he'll put pressure on Bowyer for sure.
Kasey Kahne, 14th place, 48 points behind. Kahne basically needs to win his second career Richmond race, and then he'd still need some help to qualify for the Chase. The point differential is intimidating for sure, but worse still is that he needs each of the men in front of him to have a terrible race. That's a tall order.
Ragan has been gritty and gutty, but it says here that Bowyer probably does enough to make his second consecutive Chase, joining his two Childress teammates. If Ragan made it, it would put a whopping four Roush cars in, which would tie the record for the most any one team has entered.
"Given To Fly" (Featured Elite Drivers)
(Last Week: Carl Edwards, 6th; Kyle Busch, 7th)
Hamlin makes my best fantasy play Saturday night, and not only because he needs a good finish to make the Chase. This is his home track, and he led 380 laps in the spring race before blowing a tire from the lead. A win here would mean the world to Hamlin, but I don't think he'll do that: He won't want to take the chance of a DNF, so he'll probably play it pretty conservative. But for him, at Richmond, that probably means a top-5 at least.
I'll also take Kyle Busch again as a very solid high-fantasy-dollar driver. In seven career Richmond starts, Busch has a ludicrous six top-five finishes, including a controversial second-place result last time around at this track, when he spun out Dale Earnhardt Jr. as Junior led the race late. It's worth noting that Busch has yet to win a race here, and there'll never be a time when he's more able to go for a win without any ramifications; he's locked in as the top Chase seed no matter what happens Saturday night.
"Rearviewmirror" (Midrange Drivers of Note)
(Michigan Race: Brian Vickers, 12th; David Ragan, 13th)
Ryan Newman is worth a play in most fantasy leagues this week. He has 10 straight finishes of 20th or better at Richmond, including six top-10s. In three Car of Tomorrow events at this track, Flyin' Ryan has finished sixth, 11th and sixth, which harkens back to a few years ago, when he was one of the sport's dominant drivers. Newman will leave Penske for Tony Stewart's new team over this winter -- gee, you think Penske wishes it had backed Rusty Wallace in Wallace's feud with Newman a couple years ago? -- but he's got at least one more very good finish left in the No. 12.
I'll also take Mark Martin, another guy who'll be changing rides in a couple months. Martin is taking his perpetual-retirement tour to Hendrick, where he'll bounce Casey Mears out of the No. 5. But in the meantime, he's a solid Richmond driver whose fantasy value is still undercut by his part-time schedule. Last time around at this track, Martin finished third amid the fireworks of the late wrecks, spinouts and blown tires.
"Not For You" (Beware Of This Driver)
(Michigan Race: Denny Hamlin, 3rd)
This section of STBC is devoted to finding the guys who, statistically speaking, don't excel on the present week's track and/or track style. I'm not definitively predicting a guy will stink at this week's race; rather, I'm saying there are more consistent fantasy options elsewhere. This week, I'm staying away from Greg Biffle. Now, I'm only allowing myself to select Chase drivers in this section, so each week there's a chance that my "Not For You" driver will turn in a very nice outing (see also: Hamlin at Fontana last week). Such is the case with The Biff at Richmond. Still, in three COT events at this venue, Biffle has finished 19th, 39th and 14th; that middle effort was wreck-aided, and in an old car Biffle was a regular occupant of the top 10. But the stats are the stats, and I maintain there are safer selections at the top of your fantasy board.
"Nothing As It Seems" (Weekly Sleepers)
(Michigan Race: Scott Riggs, 25th; David Gilliland, 23rd)
I mentioned Mears earlier, but let's give him a nod as a possible top-20 finisher Saturday night. He wrecked early this spring and finished 36th, but before that, Mears was a pretty good Richmond driver: Last year, he finished 17th and 18th in the COT at this track, and he was 11th and 17th here in '06. Mears was my biggest whiff in my Sprint Cup preseason previews -- I thought he'd be a borderline Chase contender -- but he does still have great equipment and a stellar crew chief, so he's undervalued at a track like this, where he usually has been pretty solid.
And finally, I'll give a nod to David Reutimann, whose past two finishes at Richmond have been 13th and 22nd. He also finished a season-high ninth at Fontana last week, and after his awesome qualifying effort at Bristol a couple weeks ago (he started on the outside pole), you get the sense that the No. 44 is just a bit locked in. I think Reutimann will give you another finish in that 13-to-22 range, which makes him a nice start as the last man on your fantasy team.

Artists in Storefronts 3
Joan Vorderbruggen has been busy bringing her projects to life, animating vacant spaces in the Whittier neighborhood with engaging art installations. The success of her first two ventures has led to a third, which will include 32 artists, 20 storefront exhibits, and pop-up performance art along Eat Street. The $10 kick-off party from 7 to 9:30 p.m. Wednesday, December 5, features a runway presentation at Icehouse of wearable art crafted by local designers (including Project Runway alum Christopher Straub) based on the sketches of five-year-old artist Louis Bustos. DJ Venus DeMars and video projectionist Mach Fox will also be on hand. In coming months, performances by Jaime Carrera, installations by Mary Jane Mansfield, and graffiti art by CAW*ES and Wundr will enliven the avenues, as will the Luminaria walking tour. For more info, visit artistsinstorefronts.com. Nicollet Avenue, from Franklin Avenue to 28th Street (additional locations on side streets) in the Whittier neighborhood of Minneapolis.

Item: Jet Blue has announced a deal with El Al to have passengers connect, with a single ticket, from Israel flights to 62 points around North America. You gotta love the timing. If you thought it was tense on Jet Blue now, wait until you start getting an infusion of passengers who have been cooped up for 10 hours on the way from Tel Aviv, displaced from the rear davening-section, kept awake by screaming babies and poorly supervised kids. El Al's flight attendants are notoriously no-nonsense, so the JetBlue crew should be prepared for a sleep deprived Birthrighter or two, knowing full well that IDF-veteran stewardesses can floor them in one move, venting some steam on the connecting flight. Better triple-lock down those emergency inflation controls, and if Jet Blue lets Steven Slater back in the air, slip some valium in his beer.
As for fees for the connection, I am told they will be on a sliding scale.
Item: Radio host Dr. Laura Schlesinger is in hot water again for her "advice" to a woman in an interracial relationship that included multiple spewing of the N-word. Among her jewels of wisdom: "Black guys seem to think it's OK ... If you're that hypersensitive about color and don't have a sense of humor don't marry out of your race ... Don't NAACP me."
Please, no one ask her opinion about the Ground Zero mosque. The ADL will have to do rhetorical backflips denouncing her insensitivity and the mosque planners' insensitivity and calling on Dr. Laura to apologize for being absolutely right.
Item: Lea Michele, a star of the hit TV show "Glee," which I am told is not about Republican reaction to the president's approval rating, says in an Us Weekly interview that she doesn't feel the need to go changin' to try and please people. "I have always been proud of my body, my Jewish nose and all of that." Good for her. JTA says she has a Jewish father, which begs the question, would she be equally proud of a fully Jewish proboscis rather than just a semi-Semitic one? Maybe she should do lunch with "Dirty Dancing" star Jennifer Grey, who said in a magazine interview in 1999 that she had rhinoplasty because her ostensibe shnoz had been keeping Baby in the corner. After the surgery she was cast on the forgotten sitcom "It's Like, You Know ..." which lasted like, you know, one season, or 10 years less than Jamie Farr spent working on M*A*S*H.
Item: BP has announced that they've finally found the right way to plug that pesky oil well once and for all. Now let's put them to work on Mel Gibson's mouth.

text: Morning plussers, if you don't drink coffee you might want to start soon. The latest study on coffee consumption, which also happens to be the largest, found coffee drinkers less likely to die than their less caffeinated counterparts. People who drank 6 or more cups a day had 10-15% less mortality rate, but even one cup will give you a 6% benefit, so keep drinking plussers, to your health!

TUSCALOOSA, Ala. (AP) -- Two redshirt freshmen named Sims could
play quarterback for Alabama this season.
Phillip Sims is competing with AJ McCarron for the starting job, but Blake Sims is practicing at both quarterback and running back.
Crimson Tide coach Nick Saban says Blake could play both backfield
He could be used in a Wildcat quarterback role to give defenses
a different look from the two dropback passers. Offensive coordinator Jim McElwain says Blake Sims "has some abilities with his feet, but he also throws it really well."
He says the 6-foot, 212-pounder has accepted both roles. Blake Sims' position is listed as "athlete" in Alabama's media guide.
He was a four-star prospect who passed for 2,288 yards and ran for 863 as a senior at Gainesville High School in Georgia.

please update soon! this story is just getting good
| Mrs. Fantasy chapter 13 . 10/3/2014
You must continue this. It has a good flow and the maturity fits well with the time. Anne should be with Charles because he will treat her far better than Henry. That and he became a father figure to Elizabeth and Darien. Henry treated her poorly and should not be with Anne because of it. For once I want this to be a Charles/Anne pairing instead of Henry/Anne. There are so many of the latter while few with the former. Anyway, I hope you update soon! I can't wait to see what happens next.
Until then,
Mrs. Fantasy
| ainaa rathore chapter 13 . 9/4/2014
I love your story...its mature & interesting. I love Henry Anne so plz don't separate them...instead bring someone else for Charles...i am excitingly waiting for Elizabeth and Darien's part in the story ...when will henry know about him? So plz write ASAP

SDCC: Marvel: Spider-Man and His Amazing Friends Panel
Comic Books
Captain America is back on ice — along with Spider-Man, Hulk, Asterix and many more at the Ice Magic Festival in Brussels, Belgium.
The exhibit spotlights many characters from around the world, including Belgium's own Smurfs and Tintin. According to the festival's website, ice sculptors spent three weeks and 420 tons of natural ice building the exhibit, which also includes an ice slide and bar. The pavilion its in is kept at minus 6°C, which is roughly 21° Fahrenheit.
You can see video from the exhibit, which ends Feb. 9, after the jump, and check out images from it here.
Not content with dominating the vast world merchandising, the Peanuts empire will now take on the competitive and ever-controversial ice sculpting arena, with a new exhibit that will open on Nov. 20 in Nashville, TN. Entitled ICE!, the exhibit will re-enact scenes from A Charlie Brown Christmas using 2 million pounds of ice carved by artisans from Harbin, China. No, I am not making any of this up.
The promo video is above. You can read the intro from the official press release, which I nicked from Daily Cartoonist, after the jump.

Hi there,
I updated my wp-supersized just a couple minute before.
But I had noticed that while the picture-transition is in progress my fonts are looking very strange.
After the transition is done, all my fonts are looking as good as before the update.
(I noticed this issue only on Safari, Firefox looks great)
Please help!

Lady Gaga Fashion Face-Off: No Pants Edition!
Those Lady Gaga hermaphrodite rumors may be absurd, but she doesn't exactly shy away from them. Check out the suit she wore leaving a London hotel recently.
Wearing a masculine black suit with white dards and a plain white shirt underneath, this was some contrast from the half-naked Lady Gaga pictures we often see.

In a study, 33% of participants said they almost always check the calorie content of a food item while grocery shopping, while 31% and 24% reported checking the total fat and sugar content, respectively, University of Minnesota researchers found. However, an eye tracker revealed that 9% of respondents looked at the calorie content, while 1% checked other components, including fat and sugar content. The findings suggest that an eye-catching, front-of-package nutrition label, with important data at the top, would most help consumers.

Abercrombie & Fitch ditches the logo
Abercrombie & Fitch is saying goodbye to their traditional logo on their clothing in efforts to stay in tune with what young adults want.
This is a huge change for the retailer since almost every piece of clothing has had the logo in plain sight. Teens are less interested in logos and more interested in individuality.
A&F says they also plan on changing their color palette.
For the upcoming shopping season, the store has reduced its logoed merchandise by half and envisions bringing the price down further.

Editor's note: The late Globe-News columnist Putt Powell, whose 87th birthday would be Sunday, will be the 43rd person profiled on Sunday in the Globe-News' yearlong series on the Golden Spread's TopSports Figures of the 20th Century.
Through Friday, his famous Short Putts notes column will appear each day. STEVE ELLIOTT was crowned homecoming king at Nebraska Saturday during halftime ceremonies of the Cornhusker-Oklahoma State football game. He's a world class tumbler from Amarillo...BRAD BRYANT (former Amarillo Country Club assistant) won $56,115 to finish 68th on the PGA Tour this year. He teamed with JOE HAGER to win $3,080 in the World Team Tournament, but that doesn't count as official money...Texas should move up to No. 2 nationally since Southern California was tied by Oregon. Oklahoma will do well to hold on to No. 17 with only a 35-21 win over Kansas State.
Note to DON HAMILTON: You gave me Kansas State and 40 points against your Sooners. I'm going to give you 25 of those points back...BARRY SWITZER won't let J.C. WATTS read his mail...BOB LEMON is reported to have been offered the job managing the Texas Rangers, but wouldn't accept a one-year contract...Colorado scored 42 points in losing to OU. Now Utah State has scored 46 points in losing to Brigham Young, 70-46...What's the most points West Texas State ever scored in losing? KENNY KING of Clarendon will be playing for Oakland against Pittsburgh tonight on TV.
PAUL MATNEY (one of the better weathermen) has moved to KAMR-TV...Some West Texas State fans laughed about playing Southwest Texas State, but the Bobcats stand 4-1 outside of losing to the Buffs. WTS would be better off in the Lone Star Conference considering everything...Seattle's JACOB GREEN (6-3 by 247) is one of the smallest defensive ends in pro football...E.C. McKENZIE: "Just about everything people want to do is either illegal, immoral or fattening."

I know this isn't specific to THIS plug-in, but seems to be related to any plug-in I've used with captcha.
I can't get the plug-in to up date... I can't delete the plug in from the server because it won't release the use of ahg-bold.ttf.
Again, this isn't just because of this plug in. I had this exact same issue with another WP site and a totally different captcha plug-in using this font. The server will not let me delete it because it says it is being used.
I had this issue a few months ago and had to get the big boss to get on the server to kill it. Had it yesterday... had to ask the big boss again (who grumbed and grumbed).
Scared to ask the big boss to do it again today. :-\
Any clue as to WHY this is happening (we have windows with... arrr... IIS 6 I think but can look for sure).
BUUUUUT in the meanwhile the plug-in update didn't work, and now the plug-in is totally gone from my list of plug-ins in wordpress.

Nearly 700,000 applications for health insurance coverage completed, officials say
Nearly 700,000 applications for health insurance coverage under the Affordable Care Act have been completed, administration officials said Thursday, although they would not release data on how many people successfully enrolled in insurance plans.
The 700,000 includes those who used state-run marketplaces, said Julie Bataille, spokeswoman for the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services. The administration will release the number who have enrolled in plans "on a monthly basis."

Narrative of the Captivity of Nehemiah How
A Narrative of the captivity of Nehemiah How, who was taken by the Indians at the Great Meadow Fort above Fort Dummer, where he was an inhabitant, October 11th, 1745. Giving an account of what he met with in his traveling to Canada, and while he was in prison there. Together with an account of Mr. How's death at Canada. Exceedingly valuable for the many items of exact intelligence therein recorded, relative to so many of the present inhabitants of New England, through those friends who endured the hardships of captivity in the mountain deserts and the damps of loathsome prisons. Had the author lived to have returned, and published his narrative himself, he doubtless would have made it far more valuable, but he was cut off while a prisoner, by the prison fever, in the fifty-fifth year of his age, after a captivity of one year, seven months, and fifteen days. He died May 25th, 1747, in the hospital at Quebec, after a sickness of about ten days. He was a husband and father, and greatly beloved by all who knew him.

Teen charged with making Facebook threats

ASSUMPTION – Assumption Parish deputies have arrested a teenager over racially charged and violent comments he allegedly made on Facebook, said Sheriff Mike Waguespack.
Napoleonville resident Feronta Thompson, 17, faces charges of terrorizing, cyber stalking, hate crime and theft of utility service. Bond has not been set.
Hundreds of parents took their children out the Assumption High School on Wednesday after concerns arose about online messages threatening violence against black students at the school.
The comments in question were posted Tuesday on the Facebook page belonging to "Colins John," whose profile picture had a person in a Klu Klux Klan outfit. The comments contained racial slurs and references to lynchings, with mentions of potential targets.
Authorities did not say whether the posts were intended as a legitimate threat or a hoax.
Waguespack said Facebook, Yahoo! and Charter Communications fully cooperated with the investigation.

An excerpt from www.HouseOfNames.com archives copyright © 2000 - 2016
The Nieves surname is derived from a place called Nevay in Angus.
The surname Nieves was first found in Angus (Gaelic: Aonghas), part of the Tayside region of northeastern Scotland, and present day Council Area of Angus, formerly known as Forfar or Forfarshire, where they held a family seat from early times and were granted lands by King David of Scotland.
Spelling variations of this family name include: Nevay, Neave, Neaves, Nevey, Neve, Neevey and others.

The motto was originally a war cry or slogan. Mottoes first began to be shown with arms in the 14th and 15th centuries, but were not in general use until the 17th century. Thus the oldest coats of arms generally do not include a motto. Mottoes seldom form part of the grant of arms: Under most heraldic authorities, a motto is an optional component of the coat of arms, and can be added to or changed at will; many families have chosen not to display a motto.
Motto: Sola proba quae honestas
Motto Translation: Those things only are good which are honorable.
