Currington nixed for NASCAR pre-race act
Listen to Billy Currington on iHeartRadio
Billy Currington's legal problems have cost him a NASCAR gig. The Charlotte Motor Speedway announced on its website Friday it was replacing the embattled country star with fellow country singer Josh Turner for a pre-race concert on May 18th.
Speedway president and general manager Marcus Smith cited Currington's recent indictment for allegedly making "terroristic threats" against a tour boat captain as reason for the change. Smith said he was confident Turner would put on a "fantastic show" for fans and sponsors at the NASCAR Sprint All-Star Race on race weekend.
Currington was released on bail Thursday after turning himself in to authorities in Georgia. The country star was also indicted on a charge of abuse of an elder person based on the boat captain's age.
Charles Harvey Ferrelle claims the singer started screaming at him and threatened his life while he was carrying his customers on a boat tour near Tybee Island on April 15th.

There are moments in television so unique that they can be described only by use of analogy. And so it was last night as MasterChef: The Professionals, set in Melbourne's exhilarating public transport hub, combined the thrill of a Myki ticket purchase with a kindergarten sports day.
By decree of famous Michelin-hog Marco Pierre White, 12 chefs split into two groups who would each attempt the extreme challenge of cooking food and then serving food. Much drama last night derived from the peculiar nature of a competition that requires trained tradespeople to put edible food onto plates and then – wait for it– take those self-same plates of edible food to the tables of diners.
If THAT wasn't sufficiently zany, wait for the twist: this food would be served ON A TRAM.
"NO WAY" said one chap, presaging the shock that would soon be felt around the nation. "What the?" asked a fresh-faced young warrior called Chrissie whose wise and cheeky words recalled Rove McManus at his most cray-cray.
WHAT THE INDEED? A dinner tram. A tram that serves dinner? Dinner on a tram?? Is this even legal?!
Who could have thought of such a thing? Certainly not the people who have been managing a highly visible tramcar restaurant for 30 years in central Melbourne of which every local resident is aware.
What the?
With such an extraordinary degree of tension at play, things went awry as you can probably imagine. Team Red, shepherded by a chap called Nick, seemed to mistakenly serve stationery supplies instead of food as a small, cold eraser was upturned on the plates of disappointed diners. Other appetisers relied less on an Officeworks motif and more on everyday bad decision-making. Handsome Rhett of Team Green failed to make raw beef his bride as "Asian-Style Beef Tartare" was left more-or-less uneaten by those diners who wanted to live.
What the?
At about this point, many of us began staring very deeply into the facial hair of a young man called Nathan. Apparently he's only 23 but his beard seems to be older than Kaiser Wilhelm and bigger than the entire postal area of Brunswick. I, for one, am glad for the beard. It's about time someone gave the roadies from Bon Iver a break and many from across the country applauded the brave decision by Ten.
I can't wait for Marco to yell directly into that beard. But, really, he wasn't doing much that was too perturbing at all. White's reputation as a scold hovers somewhere north of Gordon Ramsay and just a little south of Benito Mussolini. Along with many others, I always enjoyed his theatrical hints of personality disorder on the Ramsay show Hell's Kitchen and had been hoping for something of the same in this 90th season of Australia's MasterChef. The program has long been without a truly nasty pasty and I hoped that White would drip damaging poison faster than Julian Assange. I was hoping for a sort of culinary Simon Cowell mixed with Satan. There's been little evidence that White is genuinely shirty to date, though. The worst he does is percussively repeat "serve the food serve the food serve the food" or "on the tram on the tram on the tram". He's less Lucifer than he is bored Energizer Bunny.
We can only hope that tonight Nathan gets a cornichon caught in his beard and that White is forced to climb inside it.
I think I speak for all unpleasant people when I urge White to unveil his inner dictator.
We can only hope that tonight Nathan gets a cornichon caught in his beard and that White is forced to climb inside it.
And we can only hope that by tonight, we have each of us managed to produce the passion necessary to care about elimination. There was little that was gripping about a stuffed quail or Boudin blanc main course and little to champion on either side. I did work up a little heat for Luke, a guy with a much smaller beard and an apparent desire to want to cook edible food. Fortunately, No-Salmonella-Luke a former Maggie Beer protégé, is not up for elimination this evening.
No. Tonight, it is the turn of Team Green who managed to take a simple sausage and turn it into a Joss Whedon special-effect.
Who to love? Who to loathe?
Us die-hard consumers of MasterChef will work it out. After the giddy buzz of last night's egg-and-spoon race and one or two more highly edited tantrums, we'll have our favourites. We'll have our foes.
Stick with us and pray that Marco finds his way into Nathan's beard and a monumental tantrum.

Pakistan is situated in the western part of the Indian subcontinent, with Afghanistan and Iran on the west, India on the east, and the Arabian Sea on the south. The name Pakistan is derived from the Urdu words Pak (meaning pure) and stan (meaning country). It is nearly twice the size of California.
The northern and western highlands of Pakistan contain the towering Karakoram and Pamir mountain ranges, which include some of the world's highest peaks: K2 (28,250 ft; 8,611 m) and Nanga Parbat (26,660 ft; 8,126 m). The Baluchistan Plateau lies to the west, and the Thar Desert and an expanse of alluvial plains, the Punjab and Sind, lie to the east. The 1,000-mile-long (1,609 km) Indus River and its tributaries flow through the country from the Kashmir region to the Arabian Sea.
Military rule was instituted in Oct. 1999; a nominal democracy was declared in June 2001 by the ruling military leader, Pervez Musharraf.
Pakistan was one of the two original successor states to British India, which was partitioned along religious lines in 1947. For almost 25 years following independence, it consisted of two separate regions, East and West Pakistan, but now it is made up only of the western sector. Both India and Pakistan have laid claim to the Kashmir region; this territorial dispute led to war in 1949, 1965, 1971, 1999, and remains unresolved today.
What is now Pakistan was in prehistoric times the Indus Valley civilization (c. 2500–1700 BC ). A series of invaders—Aryans, Persians, Greeks, Arabs, Turks, and others—controlled the region for the next several thousand years. Islam, the principal religion, was introduced in 711. In 1526, the land became part of the Mogul Empire, which ruled most of the Indian subcontinent from the 16th to the mid-18th century. By 1857, the British became the dominant power in the region. With Hindus holding most of the economic, social, and political advantages, the Muslim minority's dissatisfaction grew, leading to the formation of the nationalist Muslim League in 1906 by Mohammed Ali Jinnah (1876–1949). The league supported Britain in the Second World War while the Hindu nationalist leaders, Nehru and Gandhi, refused. In return for the league's support of Britain, Jinnah expected British backing for Muslim autonomy. Britain agreed to the formation of Pakistan as a separate dominion within the Commonwealth in Aug. 1947, a bitter disappointment to India's dream of a unified subcontinent. Jinnah became governor-general. The partition of Pakistan and India along religious lines resulted in the largest migration in human history, with 17 million people fleeing across the borders in both directions to escape the accompanying sectarian violence.

The R I P Shot!!The newest inovation to the sport of archery
Anyone know someone with an injury to their pulling arm that had to give up archery? Well if their anything like me theyed give both their big toes to be able to shoot again as long as they could walk through the woods. Well thats where the creation of the R I P Shot began.
I had more than one friend that had lost their ability to pull a bow. The first was actually wanting to get into archery but had pins in his wrist and could'nt take the pressure of the pull on his wrist.This got me thinking how we could pull the bow without using anything below the wrist. So the first thing I tried was a metal cuff bent to shape around the arm just above the elbow. Thankfully the first thing I tried was a success. Now I know I'm not the first to devise a diffrent way to pull a bow because of an injury i've seen and heard of others, but let me explain where I'm headed. Lets start with why I call it the R I P Shot R I P stands for Restoring Improving Perfecting your shot. The Restoring is obvious. My friend was able to shoot a bow right away because we had removed the pressure from his wrist. What else is clear to see is any injury below the elbow would be helped. Not long after another good friend of mine (a long time elk hunting buddie ) came asking if my release could help him because after having sugery on his shooulder for the third time and the last just two months before hunting season he was afraid he was not going to be able to hunt. At the time I really did'nt know what I had and I told him I was'nt sure if it would help but he could sure try. He had dropped the poundage on his bow as low as it would go and could bearly pull his bow once and with alot of pain. I stood and watched in doubtfull anticapation as he put on my release (the R I P Shot) and began his first attempt at pulling. To my suprise the bow went straight back with no noticable struggle or grunts of pain. My friend after completing that shot just about knocked me over with a hug and burst into lafter and jumping up and down at the relization he was going to be able to hunt after all. I can't belive how many people since that I personally have ran into that have given up archery because of injury, carpul tunnel, arthritus, or even injuries from shooting a bow. How are those people going to feel when they relize they can get back in the GAME!!!!! Well that covers the Restoring.
I started shooting this when I first developed it and imediatly started to realize that I was shooting better. Now I'm not a competative shooter but I've always been a pretty good shot (I should be because I've been shooting since the age of eight) but I dont shoot all the time, more of a seasonal shooter. So at first I just wasnt sure. I contiued to use it for two years and and harvested a five point bull with it and a nice four point buck. The bull it actually gave me an advantage because I was able to pull back slowly while the bull was walking straight at me and he did'nt see me move.This is because with the R I P Shot it trtansfers the weight of the pull almost exclusively to the back muscles and I shoot eighty pound limbs. Now as archers we know that a good shot comes frome the back muscles. As time went on I started to realize this was a big reason why my shot was improving. I thought mabe it was because there is now no pressure on my hand and so it was easier to pull the trigger without punching it because my trigger finger is relaxed. This definitly helps! I wasnt sure though so I put my wrist strap back on my release and tried comparing, now there was no doubt I was defintly shooting better. The group difference was amazing I used to hit arrows pretty consistently at twenty yards but now I was doing it at thirty and forty yards. Now I'm positive the R I P Shot definatly impoved my shot.
I had a friend not an archer ( a musician friend) that told me he had an old friend he really wanted me to meet. He said that he was a world champion archer and would be a good person to try my release. I found that most of his winnings had been bear bow but in the last five years he had shot with a release alot also because he does archery coaching and wants to keep up with everyone.What I found was the guy knows archery and his wins in competitions are to many to list. I decided he was definetly a good person to let me know what I had with the R I P Shot. After we got it all ajusted to his arm he let me know that he had already been out shooting with his own release so that he could compare the difference. He shot once and a little more adjusting needed done then pulled back again all that was said is yea the length was right. He pulled out a third arrow and proceded to shoot by this time because he had'nt said anything I started to assume that he did'nt like it. I began to excuse it thinking mabee he would'nt notice as much of a diffrence because he was already a good shot. But half way through my excuse he stopped me and said "whoa dont sell it short I noticed a huge diffrence in my sight picture everything slowed way down there was alot more stability oh, and how fast can you get me one!!!
I have alot mor stories of people that were sceptical at first but you could'nt convince them otherwise now.
Needless to say I'm pretty excited about it now.
This is not a release it is a arm strap system that will adapt to most releases. So you don't have to give up the release you already love you'll just shoot better with it. A few other things this helps
You don't have a strap that has to be on your wrist so you can wear a glove!!
Your hand is now free while pulled back so you can use a call on your neck while in full draw. Imagin being able to stop that buck thats running in at you with the same grunt that you got him there with and not trying to stop him with some hiddious throat sound or stop him broadside only to scare him away with the movement of your pulling bow because he is already looking your direction.
Anyways I guess youll have to try it for itself were launching at the 2009 ATA show booth #2407 (man I don't have much time!!!) hope to see you there.
God bless and have a merry Christmas

Star Wars: Episode VII For 2015
As Disney buys Lucasfilm for $4bn
Today we felt a great disturbance in the Force, as if millions of voices suddenly cried out in amazement, and were silenced by hard fact. Yes, Walt Disney has gone on another acquisition mission, buying up Lucasfilm for the handsome sum of kee oto But the even bigger news to come out of the announcement? [The companies are planning Episode VII in the *Star Wars franchise for 2015.](http://thewaltdisneycompany.com/disney-news/press-releases/2012/10/disney-acquire-lucasfilm-ltd)
The jokes, of course, came almost as fast as the questions of whether it was actually true. But it really is, and George Lucas himself was part of the announcement.
"For the past 35 years, one of my greatest pleasures has been to see Star Wars passed from one generation to the next," said Lucas, chairman and CEO of Lucasfilm, in a statement. "It's now time for me to pass Star Wars on to a new generation of filmmakers. I've always believed that Star Wars could live beyond me, and I thought it was important to set up the transition during my lifetime.
"I'm confident that with Lucasfilm under the leadership of Kathleen Kennedy, and having a new home within the Disney organization, Star Wars will certainly live on and flourish for many generations to come. Disney's reach and experience give Lucasfilm the opportunity to blaze new trails in film, television, interactive media, theme parks, live entertainment, and consumer products."
While the move remains somewhat shocking, it's not entirely surprising, especially since Disney bought Marvel (demonstrating, so far, that they can shepherd a geek-friendly company without Disney-fying the result) and Lucas announced he was stepping back from filmmaking to shepherd other projects.
But the new film is only part one of the strategy. Snuck into word that Kennedy will slide into the president's job at Lucasfilm, comes this little nugget: "Star Wars **Episode VII is targeted for release in 2015,* with more feature films expected to continue the Star Wars *saga and grow the franchise well into the future."
In a follow-up investor's call about the move, it was announced that the seventh film would be the first in a new trilogy, with releases aimed at roughly every two to three years. The treatment for the first of the three is already in hand. Lucas and Kennedy discuss the movies in the video below.
Nothing is known about the new movies yet, but of course we'll keep you advised. Also, anyone else think this might finally mean the long-planned, already-written live-action Star Wars TV show might finally go ahead? After all, Disney are making a S.H.I.E.L.D. TV series alongside their Marvel films, so that could fit. Even if that's still too ambitious, expect a wealth of telly, toy and theme park releases.

U.S. military spending up 81 percent since 2001: report

This news does not surprise me at all. I have an iPhone 5 (also had the 3G and 4) and while it's a great phone, I'm finding iOS to be stale and boring without the jailbreak. My 4 was jailbroken for almost the entire time I owned it, so I had forgotten what it's like to have a non-customizable phone. I love my iPads, AppleTV, and Macbook Pro...but considering I use my iPhone more than all three of those combined I really need it to be more customizable.
I may wait another month or two, but if no jailbreak is forthcoming I'll sell my iPhone 5 and buy the Galaxy S3.
*EDIT: I also blame the app piracy tweak (ha ha...mmi censored its name!) for Apple's persistence in blocking the jailbreak, and I don't blame them for doing so. It makes me sick when I hear of people who are too effing cheap to actually purchase the apps they want. If that tweak could be shut down I think Apple would be much more willing to release an open iOS.
The lack of customization is a serious problem for many folks, such as disabled people that rely on certain Cydia tweaks. I don't share planetbeing's optimism about an iOS 6 JB. It's no use if JBs take 8-12 months to produce. That's just too long. The next model phone is already out by then. I understand that some people love their iPhone even without a jailbreak, but those people (as a percentage) are becoming less and less. The S4 or newer Nexus products are going to look quite tempting in a few months time.
I didn't upgrade to the iPhone five. There just wasn't enough bells and whistles in it. The length of the screen size was nice but felt they needed to make it a bit wider as well.
I was more that disappointed with both iPhone five and the latest iPad as well.
Hopefully they will come out with a Big Bang in March. If not then I will keep what I have until they come out with something I am waiting for or want.
A buddy of mine that's a android fan BIG time had good me that google is going to be only supporting android for 6 months on new phone purchases. I was surprised to hear this and is one of the reasons I stick with apple is for software support. He said the only android phone that would still get updates are the nexus x phones. In my eyes this is google telling you screw off we don't care about you.
I love my iPhone 5. Only problems I had; original charge cable stopped working, and I gave up on touch intensive games because the sensitivity issues.
True HD Pics and videos make me want to use my 5 as a gopro! All they need is a legit mount/case unlike ones currently available and exactly like the leading brand mounts.
The front hd camera is a HUGE difference too. Annoying grainy pics be gone!
LTE is stupid fast, I stay off wifi because its always slower Fast data=fast Siri.
A6 processor=apps open without hesitation no matter level of multitasking.
The s3 may as well me a tablet. It just looks ridiculous being held up to people's heads and them being dwarfed by the massive device lol. It's looks like trying to make a phone call on a nook or an iPad mini lol. Good luck getting that in and out of your pockets. Better get a nifty fanny pack!
Perhaps all the iPhone haters can find another website to comment on, possibly something with a focus beyond the iPhone. I can't fathom how lame a person's life must be to waste their time on websites highlighting products they loathe solely to berate them and their fans.
Trolls: Does that actually make you feel better about yourself? I pray it doesn't. It's pathetic and annoying. Please stop!
Not sure how the iPhone 5 is crap in any imagination of the word.
But then again how much credit can one person have who takes the time to comment against apple on an apple based forum. Lol.
I've had every iPhone sense the 1st one in 2007. The 5 by far is better than any other model.
For anyone complaining that apple fights jailbreaks. WAKE UP this has been like this for a while, please sell your iPhones and pick up an android.
It's also funny with all the comments on how apple isn't innovative anymore, but yet every technology they come out with becomes a standard in all phone across all platforms.
Someone please enlighten me on how any android phone has been so innovative? Not saying that apple has innovated everything, and I'm sure there are things apple did in light of android.
But please for all that claim apple has lost it's touch, why re-invent the wheel? And having an open OS is a far cry from innovation, NFC that's been around for some time and apple has chosen not to use it (yet atleast). So again please let me know how other smart phone companies have changed industries like apple has?
Let the flaming begin lol
or people don't like hearing that people like me have had nothing but problems with the 5. I got mine when they came out, and I've already swapped sims, swapped phones, reset everything imaginable several times, spent hours on the phone with apple & ATT, and I STILL have to put it in/out of airplane mode just to get 4g after I leave a wifi network. EVERY SINGLE TIME I leave my house, I have to do that to get it off of edge and back to normal. I really hate the I5, wish I would have kept my 4.
Same here! Running both a 4S JB and an i5...those who don't think the 5 is worth it are sorely mistaken IMHO...
Be interesting to see if the Samsung G4 will be leaps and bounds ahead of the G3 like ppl expected with the 4S to the 5! There's only so much tech they can cram in there...
2) I already have. You all will too, even if you're still currently in denial. It's only a matter of time ;-)
Just crazy that after all this time the iPhone still hasn't been able to get widgets or being able to switch out the keyboard. I'm still on the fence about keeping my iPhone 4s or switching up.

Voice (MBC student newspaper) reporter Stephen Harris was featured in a half-hour interview on the Bob Enyart Live radio program a couple of weeks ago.
Abortion, Voting, and Stirring the Pot
Mr. Enyart was interviewing Stephen about the story he wrote for The Voice regarding Down Syndrome abortions - unfortunately much of the interview changed focus to items such as moral relativism and the fact that so many Christians voted for President Obama and, by extension, a "pro-abortion" agenda. The interview then went further to imply that most Multnomah Bible College students voted for Obama and therefore are engaged in the same "moral relativism" as other Christians (although, how they can know whether students voted and for whom, is beyond me).
(Note: MUblog is not making a judgement on voting habits of anyone, we are simply reporting the facts of the radio interview.)
Worthy Of Comment
(Full disclosure: since I run MU's public relations functions, I'm a little protective over MU's image in the community.)
I have to admit, I still don't know exactly how I feel about the interview. I am more than a little uncomfortable with the insinuations made regarding the spiritual health of MU and the students who come to learn their Bibles and love their Savior - but it is a fair and logical line of questioning for the interviewer to pursue. I'm just afraid that Bob Enyart ended up erroneously scaring some students and parents away from a college that strongly espouses absolutes of Biblical truth in an otherwise morally relativistic society!
I look forward to your thoughts in the comments section below.
The Recording
[audio: http://blogs.multnomah.edu/University/wp-content/uploads/2009/06/20090528-bel106.mp3]
What I do know is that Stephen Harris is a fantastic example of the types of students I'm proud of to have on campus!
The interview was broadcast over AM670 KLTT in Denver, the most powerful Christian radio station in the country (50,000 watts). The station has between 3.5 and 4.5 million listeners daily (plus it streams on the Internet and is on HD radio). The Bob Enyart Live show airs at 3 p.m. Monday through Friday.

There's something morbid about this next section of "The Voice," known as the Battles. Just after the judges declare their devotion to the singers in an effort to build winning teams, they have to choose between their own proteges. In Voice terms, they may as well be choosing between their own children.
Last year, I found this part of the show slow. But tonight at least it held my attention. Perhaps credit should go to the new twist, the steal, where judges can pick up a contestant cast off in a battle.Another benefit: a lot less time is spent on the life stories. Finally, the talent is just good, probably better.
The night started out with an old-time rock favorite, "Carry On Wayward Son." At first I favored Terry McDermott (remember "Baba O'Riley" from the auditions), then I came around to Casey Muessignmann. But Blake went with Terry, saying he "knows what his voice is a little bit more."
Next up, Bryan Keith and Collin McLaughlin, with a reggae song. Here, I was in synch with the judges, favoring Bryan. Collin, to my surprise, earned two steals. Predictably, he picked Blake over CeeLo. (Who doesn't? The contestants generally don't seem to go for CeeLo if they have a choice, for reasons I truly don't understand.)
Battling with "Jessie's Girl," a standout from my memory lane, JR Aquino gave Diego Val a run for his money. Diego took too many liberties for my taste, but not for CeeLo's. He was the only judge who turned for Diego, and tonight he stood by him.
You'll recall De'borah who sang "Hey, Soul Sister" in the auditions? As Blake put it so well, she was a one-way trajectory tonight, in my view starting out so so but gathering steam from beginning to end. Based on the judges' comments, it wasn't a close call for Christina to go with De'borah over Nelly's Echo.
Another clear winner, Gracia Harrison over 2 Steel Girls, a duet. All three were impressive. But Gracia scored praise, justifiably, for her fun side and stage presence. She went up against a duet and earned her victory.
Easily the evening's biggest showdown pitted Amanda Brown against Trevin Hunte. Scoring a standing O from the four judges, the two gave an amazing performance of "Vision of Love" by Mariah Carey. Perhaps most endearing, they really sang it together. You'd never know they were competing. CeeLo went with Trevin. Amanda had her choice of the rest with a three-way steal, and she plucked Adam.
My prediction: Amanda can win the whole contest. Readers, please share your views.

He won last night against Matt Inman who is a legit dude, he's beaten Wayne Murrie leaving just Jess Liaudin and Cathal Pendred above him in the rankings (yourmma) that aren't in the UFC, obviously Paul Daley is signed to Bellator and I think Wallhead is.
Which show gives him a top European fighter? Isn't he 40 now? If the guy is going to do it now he's going to have to do it in his next couple fights.
PS - good performance last night dude, unlucky Matt.

Angel of HarlemI recall Bono stating "We've been waiting 5 years to play this song in this arena" before U2 launched into Angel of Harlem for the 1st time in NYC. Great concert. Madison Square Garden is always magical. It was memorable for me as it was the first of many U2 concerts my future wife and I would attend together.

Related: Discovered; discovering.

Surprise, Ariz. • Lance Berkman knows he's being watched with some trepidation while going through spring training with the Texas Rangers.
"Kind of a house of cards deal with me," he said Wednesday.
After all, he is 37 years old with a gray-speckled beard and coming off a season when he played only 32 games with St. Louis because of two operations on his right knee and a left calf strain. He thought about retiring before accepting an $11 million, one-year deal from Texas to be primarily a designated hitter.
Now, a week into spring training, Berkman has a mild strain in his right calf.
He said it's nothing to worry about.
"It's no big deal. I think it's a result of more volume than I've done," Berkman said. "We're taking groundballs, we're running, I haven't been doing that stuff. I've been lifting, and more in a rehab mode, and now I've kind of shifted into the baseball mode and it's not something that to me is that concerning. It's just one of the things that happens to you at the beginning of camp when you start trying to sort things out physically."
Berkman is a .296 career hitter with 360 home runs and 1,200 RBIs in 1,806 regular-season games. He spent most of his career with Houston before being an All-Star in 2011 with the Cardinals, when he hit .301 with 31 homers and 94 RBIs in 145 games and was part of their World Series championship over Texas.
Around the majors
Pirates • Pittsburgh manager Clint Hurdle will give veteran A.J. Burnett his first career opening-day start when the Pirates begin the 2013 season at home.
Indians • All-Star second baseman Carlos Baerga and former general manager John Hart are the new members of the Cleveland Indians Hall of Fame. Baerga and Hart will inducted June 22.
Yankees • New York pitcher Phil Hughes could be sidelined for two weeks because of a bulging disk that will be treated with anti-inflammatory medication.
• Yankees pitcher Michael Pineda has pleaded no contest to driving under the influence.
Hillsborough County State Attorney spokesman Mark Cox says Pineda entered the plea Wednesday in Tampa.

The Reno-Sparks Convention & Visitors Authority is pleased to announce the National Cutting Horse Association Western National Championships will be held in Reno Tahoe, April 28 � May 8, 2012.
The prestigious NCHA Western National Championships are expected to bring more than 2,400 competitors and associates from 22 U.S. states, as well as Canada. The Western National Championships have been held in Ogden, Utah since 1995, and 2012 marks the first time this event has changed locations.
�We are very excited that the Western Nationals will be in Reno next year,� said NCHA President Keith Deaville. �The city�s location, quality and quantity of hotels and restaurants, reputation for great hospitality and the desire to roll out the red carpet for cutters will help make this a great show for our members."
With more than 20,000 members, the NCHA is one of the largest and most prestigious equine associations. Its members are not just competitors, but aficionados who live and breathe a lifestyle many Americans only see in movies. According to NCHA, three-quarters of its members live on more than 120 acres of rural land; the average member has 10 horses and six dozen head of cattle; at least two people per household are involved with training and caring for horses; and, the average member spends 27 days per year at cutting horse events.
�We are ecstatic to welcome NCHA to Reno Tahoe for the Western National Championships in 2012,� said RSCVA Interim President & CEO Joe Kelley. �This is an affluent group of experts who are very serious competitors, but they�re also very friendly and warm. They will be welcomed wholeheartedly by this community.�
NCHA events have seen the number of entries double over the past decade, and the organization expects to have approximately 1,000 entries, with total purses from the 11-day event exceeding $200,000. NCHA reports that past Western Regional Championships have resulted in a local economic impact of more than $3.4 million.

How do I deal with a rough toddler?
My friend has a very rough toddler who pushes, hits and bites. She is lovely but she doesn't do anything to stop him from hurting other children and simply says she can't control him. Her child recently pushed another child off a swing and broke his arm. I thought it might be a wake up call for her, but it wasn't. Do you have any advice about how to handle this? Although it sounds bad, I am starting to think about avoiding playtimes with her and I know that other mothers are already doing this.

Hi TwoLittleBoys,
Your number one priority is to your child, and this means that you need to choose your child's play mates carefully. Your child will pattern themselves after what they see, what they hear and who they interact with.
I ran a day care for 6 years, and I found that when one child started biting, often another child would start biting too. If one child started hitting, other children would hit too. Sadly, if I had a biter that would not stop biting, I would have to move them out of my day care for the safety of the other children, and also, to keep the other children from picking up this type of behavior.
With my own children, I have been very careful about what they are exposed to. I know they pattern after what they see and hear, so I have made sure that they are not exposed to bad attitudes or violence, and that they are exposed to excellent role models, good music and good programming.
I was always very careful when I took my children to the park. I stayed right by them (and "yes", that meant moving around the play yard with them as they ran around) and I interacted with them. If there was another child at the park that caused problems, I would call my child over to me, and we would go to another area together.
You could put your child on a swing, and push him. This would keep him separated from the other child while still allowing your child some outside play time.
It's really important that you learn to be most concerned about what's best for your own child right now, and become much less concerned about what others may think. If another parent can't control her child, and the child is out of control, it will be best to avoid spending time. There are much more relaxing things you could do with your child, that would promote happiness and excitement about learning and life.
Warm Regards,

Absolutely fantastic advice from Kate.
We must put our children first; if this means not spending time with certain other children/parents then that is what must happen. Children model the behaviour they see around them both from other adults and children. Enjoy these special days with your little boys and have fun somewhere else!

MARKET CLOSE NZ shares fall from five year NZX50 high
Jan 29 (BusinessDesk) - New Zealand shares fell slightly after briefly hitting a five year high yesterday, with some analysts claiming there's case for New Zealand equities to go higher if the forthcoming earnings season surprises with stronger than expected results.
The NZX50 Index of leading stocks was down 4.148 points, of 0.99 percent, at 4,200.289. Turnover remained relatively light, at $66.895 million. Within the index, 17 stocks rose, 18 stocks fell, and 15 were unchanged.
Among losers on the day was Fonterra Shareholders Fund, which dropped another 1.12 percent to $7.05, its lowest point since Dec 18, as the world's largest dairy exporter continued to deal with the fallout from the discovery of minute traces of a nitrate inhibitor, known as DCD, in milk powder products.
A Beijing-based New Zealand businessman and commentator, David Mahon, said the issue had received no significant coverage in Chinese news media.
"As long as New Zealand is clear and outspoken in terms of the facts to date, and it seems the Prime Minister's (John Key) statement was straightforward and unequivocating, that is what people will listen to. You don't make statements like that unless you have the science to back it up," Mahon told Fairfax Media.
Elsewhere, Milford Asset Management portfolio manager Mark Warminger argued that the current forward price/earnings ratio on New Zealand stocks, at around 15.5, looked high and that it was "simple to conclude that New Zealand equities are therefore over-valued."
"But such simple analysis does not take into account where we are in the economic cycle."
After several years of unexciting but stable earnings, analysts had become "over-cautious and we believe that earnings are likely to exceed expectations over the next year as the economic recovery continues."
Oceana Gold fell furthest, down 2.69 percent to $3.25, Steel & Tube was off 1.53 percent to $2.58, and Fletcher Building was among gainers, edging up 0.54 percent to $9.26.

"I knew it was late but I have to make a play," Miller said. "Regardless if the buzzer goes, he shoots, stand in there. I was focused on Kovalev, a little bit about the clock that he would try and make a move, get a shot. He hit the trailer. It was a pretty good shot."'

Meet Jodie. Jodie has a great family and a lot of holiday shopping to do. Back in September, we asked our Twitter followers to tweet @UncommonGoods for a chance to win a $500 holiday shopping spree. We received almost 500 entries, but could only pick one lucky winner. Our winner, Jodie, tweeted at us loud and clear, and we had the wonderful opportunity to help her pick gifts for her family and friends.
She told us all about the people she'll be spending her $500 gift certificate on, and we had a blast helping her pick the perfect gifts for her loved ones. We had so much fun, we decided to create a few gift guides inspired by Jodie's favorite people.
She told us about her nephews, Mark Anthony III, Simon, and Shamus. These playful picks were chosen with puzzle-loving 4-year-old Simon and 6-year-old Arts & Crafter Shamus in mind.
This Old Man- This cuddly puzzle helps kids learn to count through music. While youngsters are learning to count, they can use rhyming queues to match the removable pieces with the corresponding numbers and get them back into the right pockets. This Old Man also comes with a CD, so kids can sing along as they put a shoe in pocket number two and the door in pocket four.
Life Size Zoo Book- This big book (14.5″ L x 10.5″ W) is perfect for your favorite little animal. Featuring facts, games, and close-up photos, Life-Size Zoo is fun and educational. If the little one in question prefers underwater adventures, check out Life-Size Aquarium.
Make Your Own Family Set- A great gift for crafty kids, this set encourages creativity and celebrates families of all sorts. The kit includes seven dolls, three pieces of fabric, three pieces of felt, craft glue, four colors of yarn, and 12 colored pencils.
Putty Creatures- The great thing about these little blobs, is that they can take shape with the help of a little imagination and some clever molding. The set includes two putty puddles, which each comes in it's own tin. Each pile of workable goo includes two eyeballs to give your creature creations just the right look!
Whatchamadrawit- This exciting game give "quick draw" a new meaning. Players choose a card, then race to see who can complete a drawing of the silly scenario first. When the game isn't in play, the cards can also be used as fun prompts for doodling.
Stormy Seas Balancing Game- This balancing game encourages strategic thinking as players work to balance "cargo" on the deck without tipping the pirate ship. If a sailor spills the pieces, they're out of the game; the player who lasts the longest without loosing their booty wins!
MultiBlocks- Designed by Brad Singley, these stackable wooden blocks are labeled with numbers and increments to encourage mathematical thinking.
Construction Plate and Utensils- It may be easier to get kids to eat their peas when they get to shovel them in with construction equipment! The construction plate features fun compartments for all of your child's favorite foods, and special spaces for the bulldozer pusher, fork lift, and front loader spoon.
If the kids in your life are anything like Jodie's nephews, we think they'll love our uncommon picks! Need more ideas? Check out our other great gifts for toddlers and kids. Or tweet @UncommonGoods. We're on call to help with any personal shopping requests!

Bloggers Are People, Too.
One of the coolest things about the blogosphere and the social layer is the absolute ease with which one can find like minded people. Believe me – whatever hobby, interest or passion floats your boat, you are not alone. Others share your interest, and they are out there – blogging, tweeting, or chatting away in a Facebook group or on a discussion forum.
And best of all, niche interests are well served. Let's look at gardening, for example. It's a marketplace worth billions. People grow all manner of things in their gardens – veggies, native plants, roses, orchids, lilies, fruit, heirlooms and modern cultivars. Some adhere to biodynamic or organic practices. Others, plagued by platoons of voracious insects or rampaging weeds, have been driven into a Round-Up and Raid wielding rage, and fully subscribe to the "better living through chemistry" adage.
My point is, if you're doing PR for a brand in the gardening space, it's not enough to target "garden blogs." Organic gardeners aren't interested in chemical sprays. The patient souls who sprout native roses from seeds (a process that takes three years in some cases just to see a single leaf) are not interested in the latest pest-resistant re-blooming landscape rose.
To be effective, communicators must respect the personal interest of their audiences. To do otherwise risks committing deep offense – and triggering a wave of negative publicity that could very easily bleed over into relevant groups. Unfortunately, despite well-documented missteps over the last few years, some PR pros still haven't learned these lessons. This week, another big brand – and its PR agency – are in hot water over some spurious tactics.
Distinctions in interest really matter.
I spend a decent portion of each weekend tramping around in the woods, braving mosquitoes, poison ivy and evil thorny undergrowth in my pursuit of edible wild mushrooms. When I get home (every now and then with a delectable find) I often spend time discussing identification characteristics of wild mushrooms with a small band of fellow foragers. Several are professional mycologists, and the wealth of information the group shares are astounding, along with the occasional recipe. (Puffball Parmesan, anyone?) The group is interested in finding edibles, for sure, but a lot of time is also spent identifying and discussing non-edibles, just for learning and interests' sake.
However, in addition to people who are interested in edibles, there's another type of wild mushroom forager out there. They're not after innocent morels, boletes and puffballs. Oh, no. They're not. Instead, they hunt psychoactive mushrooms. You know. "Shrooms." Or, "medicinal mushrooms" as some fans euphemistically refer to them. When picked and prepared, the law calls them illegal substances. Occasionally one of these, um, enthusiasts, will happen upon the discussion group to which I belong, and will attempt to start a discussion about his or her area of interest. Chances are good they'll be driven off by hostile and angry response before the moderators can kick them off.
Point is, there's a place for every conversation, but not every place is appropriate for every conversation. Broad generalizations by communicators can lead to at the worst, disaster, and at the least an ineffective campaign that wastes dollars and resources.
Respectful tactics
In my mind, it all boils down to respect – specifically, respecting audiences as individuals and as people – not as "targets." Identifying different areas of interest within audiences takes time, but pays off in the long run. Instead of communicating with a mass group of "mommy bloggers" or "garden bloggers" it's a good idea to narrow the field to those whose interests are in line with your brand's objectives.
The approach to communicating with social groups (including bloggers) needs to change, too. These folks aren't journalists – many are passionate hobbyists who aren't part of the professional news media. The shotgun approach – hosing down an audience with content and expecting those who are interested to glom onto the information — won't work. And don't expect those who are disinterested to simply ignore it. They may instead take offense.
Personally, I don't think it's ever a good idea to try to dupe a blogger (or anyone else for that matter) into changing their mind about something. Think about it this way – how would you feel if someone did it to you? If a brand called your closely held personal convictions into question, in public? Or, worse, if a brand didn't respect your convictions/practices/beliefs and tried to trick you into trying something you were fundamentally against?
One good way to keep perspective is to spend some time thinking through the worst-case scenario. How could the message or campaign be misinterpreted? What happens if the audience reacts negatively? What steps would you take to protect the brand in these types of scenarios, which would play out in public?
Cultivating relationships with key people who are very likely to appreciate what the brand you're promoting represents can be a fantastic way to build buzz and conversation around a product or service. Strategic engagement designed to identify and encourage brand advocates – who will then share their enthusiasm with their respective audiences – can also be tremendously effective. However, these type of tactics are high-touch and personal, which is precisely why they work.

This revelation turned out to be just one of many secrets that Lindbergh had kept from the world.
When I heard that from my manager, I said, "Yeah, and I kidnapped the Lindbergh baby."
Lindbergh believed Roosevelt was dictator, a danger to democracy, intent on pushing America to war.
The "Crime of the Century" certainly did traumatize Lindbergh.
When it becomes clear that nobody else will challenge Lindbergh in the next election, Winchell announces his own candidacy.
It was just about this time, in April of 1928, that Lindbergh had to put his flying to a stiff test.
Youve got Lindbergh at the Nebraska flying school for a long time.
Lindbergh and I crawl out of our ships with parachutes strapped to us.
But I guess that most of them are in the Lindbergh museum now.
The majestic Lindbergh light swept the sky, but its rays did not touch them.
