Cuba will look to a roster filled with veterans of international play to try to win the World Cup for the first time since 2005.
As expected, Cuba will send an offensive-minded lineup to the World Cup in Panama and to the Pan Am Games that follow in Mexico, led by a powerful lineup featuring third baseman Yulieski Gourriel, outfielders Alexei Bell and Alfredo Despaigne, and second baseman Hector Olivera. Bell, Despaigne and Gourriel each have set or approached Serie Nacional's single-season home run record in recent years, while Olivera brings a game comparable to that of a young Placido Polanco to the Cuban lineup. The switch-hitting Cepeda, 31, has been a stalwart in Cuba's national team lineups for nearly a decade.
The roster also includes three catchers, with 37-year-old Ariel Pestano—who was supposedly retiring from international play after last year's Pan Am qualifying tournament—once again behind the plate for the national team. At the other end of the spectrum, 21-year-old shortstop Erisbel Arruebarruena made the roster. He's considered a defender in the class of recently-defected prospects such as Jose Iglesias (Red Sox) and Adeiny Hechevarria (Blue Jays).
Cuba once owned the World Cup, winning 11 straight events in which it participated from 1976-2005. But in 2007 and 2009, Cuba lost to the United States in the Cup finals, mostly because the Cubans have failed to develop a new national-team ace to replace the defected Jose Contreras. In fact, Cuba's wins in international play have come with much less regularity in recent years. Cuba won the 2004 Olympics and the '05 World Cup, but since then has lost when facing professional competition in the finals in 2006 (World Baseball Classic and Olympic qualifier, which was played in Havana), '07 (World Cup), '08 (Olympics) and '09 (World Cup), then didn't even make the finals in the '09 WBC. In 2010, the Dominican Republic beat Cuba in the finals of the Pan Am qualifier.
Cuba's pitchers for the World Cup includes just two lefthanders (veterans Yulieski Gonzalez and Norberto Gonzalez) and will lean on other stalwarts such as righthanders Vicyohandri Odelin and Yadier Pedroso, at 25 probably the top prospect on the staff. He features a solid-average fastball that will at times sit in the low 90s to go with a plus split-finger fastball, a solid-average, power slider and a feel for his curveball. The staff also includes Freddy Alvarez, who led Serie Nacional in ERA last season (1.89 in 109 IP). Veteran righty Pedro Luis Lazo kept his word and unlike Pestano is not on this roster.
Via the website baseballdecuba.com, here's the Cuban roster:
Catchers: Yosvani Alarcon, Frank Camilo Morejon, Ariel Pestano.
Infielders: Jose Abreu (1b), Hector Olivera (2b), Yulieski Gourriel (3b), Erisbel Arruebarruena (SS), Michel Enriquez (3b/dh), Rudy Reyes (util).
Outfielders: Alexei Bell, Alfredo Despaigne, Frederich Cepeda, Giorvis Duvergel, Rusney Castillo.
Pitchers: Dalier Hinojosa, Freddy Alvarez, Miguel Lahera, Miguel Gonzalez, Yadier Pedroso, Norberto Gonzalez, Jonder Martinez, Vicyohandri Odelin, Alberto Soto la O, Yulieski Gonzalez.

It is good to read every day of the week, but at Edgewood Elementary School sundae reading is fun for all with the possible exception of Principal Calista Boyer. As a reward for students taking a reading challenge from Mrs. Boyer and reading almost 6,000 books, Mrs. Boyer became a human ice-cream sundae complete with ice-cream, chocolate syrup, butterscotch syrup, bananas, whipped cream, and sprinkles. Students were selected one at a time to come up on stage and in front of a full class assembly help turn Principal Boyer into an ice cream sundae.
Books Are Your Ticket to the World is the Edgewoods reading incentive program that asks students to read at least 25 books during the course of the year. Mrs. Boyer pointed out her strategy for encouraging reading, This year I wanted to do something extra special to motivate students to read. Together with Mrs. Connie Belin, Mrs. Kerry Kline, and Mrs. Lisa Kolb we planned special events that I would do if students met their reading goals each marking period. We stressed to the students the importance of reading and how if you know how to read you will achieve. The students loved the ideas and it truly motivated them to read more and more books.

There are a select few American's that can get by without taking out loans, they're called the 1%. Unless you come from money or happen to win the lottery, chances are you will take out a loan at some point in your life. Even wealthy entrepreneurs take out loans. It's hard to get a business off the ground these days without a business loan. While the need for lending has increased since the recession, the ability to borrow has increasingly become more difficult. As government officials make it harder for payday loan lenders to stay open, many Americans are asking themselves where they're going to get the money they need.
Cash advances are important to those who face emergency expenses, but they are short term loans typically under $1,000. Student loans, mortgages, and small business loans are credit lines many of us use to achieve personal life goals. While it may be impossible to avoid taking out these types of loans, it's important to understand your financial responsibility. Take the time to consider the amount you need, and devise a plan for repayment. Here is a better look at the loans many of us will need to accomplish the American dream:
Dream: Education
Loan: Student Loan
The cost of education rises every year. Financial aid is only given to those whose parent's income is well below middle class. For many Americans in the middle class, taking out a student loan is the only way to attend college. Attending a private university often gives a student more opportunities in the real world, but the price of your degree costs around $145,000 on average. Attending state schools can significantly reduce this number, with the average student owing around $25,250 after graduation. When taking out a student loan try to go through the state rather than private institutions. There are more controls over what state institutions can charge in interest rates, and better options for consolidation. If you do need to borrow from a private institution, try not to take out too many separate loans. The larger the amount the lower the interest rate on the actual loan.
When it comes time to repay your loan (typically 6 months to a year after you graduate) you have options. You can defer payment if you are not yet employed. You can also reduce payments, or pay interest only for two years. However, the sooner you start paying off your principal balance, the lower your interest rates will become.
Dream: Home Ownership
Loan: Mortgage
Besides education, home ownership is one of the most popular American dreams. The housing market has been bad for quite some time now. Home owners all across America invested thousands if not millions of dollars into properties, only to find out that the selling value is quite a bit lower than they expected. Still many people grow up wanting to own their own home. While it is still a buyer's market right now, acquiring the funds to pay off a home all at once is pretty impossible. How many people do you know have $50,000-$400,000 lying around? When purchasing a home the buyer typical puts down a down payment, and takes out a mortgage. The key is to save up enough money to put down a substantial down payment, the higher the down payment the lower your monthly mortgage payments.
Most of us take out loans when we have the financial means to pay them back, but sometimes life happens, lay-offs happen, and the ability to make the same payments becomes difficult if not impossible. It's important to make higher payments, and pay-off debt while we can, rather than pay the bare minimum and lengthen the repayment period.
Dream: Entrepreneurship
Loan: Small Business Loan
Another American dream is to be self-employed. It's a lot more fun bossing yourself around than getting bossed around, but the financial burden can be large. When an entrepreneur comes up with what they believe is an original idea, they typically look to investors or small business loans to help them get their idea off the ground. If you look to an investor to fund our new business, he or she will probably accept a percentage of the profits to appease the terms of the investment/loan. If you take out a small business loan, you will have to repay the financial institution as outlined in your loan agreement.
Dream: Basic Needs
Loan: Payday Loan
While dreams are great they can be expensive, but so can basic needs. There are many Americans who live paycheck to paycheck. These citizens make enough to cover typical expenses, but what happens when an emergency occurs? Payday loans, cash advances, online lending services help these Americans purchase things like gas, groceries, medicine or make payments when their last paycheck just wasn't enough.
The moral of the story is that while loans can be the means to an end, it's important that you be financially responsible. The debt crisis occurred, because many Americans couldn't make mortgage or other loan payments. Always borrow responsibly, and be sure to make timely payments.

Do you know that the Search Engines are the yellow pages of the new millennium? In this day and age when your site is competing with millions of other web pages, you need an advantage to make your website stand out from the rest. At Leisurem, our search engine strategy service can give you that advantage. We can dramatically increase hits to your website by optimising your site and then adding them to a very large number of search engines and directories which we will do on a regular basis. Search engine optimisation is the process of promoting your business online to achieve better search engine rankings for relevant, targeted key words. It refers to optimising the html and content of your website website for both search engines and visitors in order to attain higher rankings than competing websites. In doing so, it will increase qualified traffic and generate customer enquiries that ultimately convert to sales. Contrary to any sales hype you may read elsewhere, there are no software products available, nor will there ever be, that can automate the search engine optimisation process. Remember, having the best looking site won't give your business any benefit if it can't be found. Merely registering your URL with all the major search engines won't give your pages a decent shot at appearing on the coveted "page one" of the search engine results unless it is backed up with a targeted search engine optimisation campaign. Without a doubt, this is the most cost-effective way to market your business in the world today! Get your website found 24 hours a day, 7 days a week! You'll be making sales from your website while you sleep! At Leisurem, we do as our experts are from the industry where we work and provide hoteliers with expert advice, concrete recommendations, and sensible solutions that are clearly defined to meet their Internet objectives.

SUCH is the concern of the Bank of England's financial watchdog about the state of the economy that it considered lifting rules on banks' cash holdings altogether.
Minutes from the Financial Policy Committee's latest meeting published yesterday show that members discussed the removal of rules on liquidity due to concern that it is hindering lending.
The discussion is remarkable given that low liquidity levels were contributors to the part-nationalisation of Royal Bank of Scotland and Halifax Bank of Scotland, now part of Lloyds Banking Group, in 2008.

Mayor Bloomberg distanced himself from embattled Brooklyn Democratic boss Vito Lopez today amid a growing scandal over the management of a network of not-for-profits he is closely connected to.
After being reelected to a two-year term as party leader Monday night, Lopez told reporters he expected a call from the mayor.
"I think the mayor probably, hopefully he'll call me up and tell me congratulations about being the county leader," Lopez said.
But Lopez ought not wait by the phone.
When asked today whether he called Lopez – also a state assemblyman – to congratulate him on his re-election as party leader, the mayor gave an uncharacteristically sharp answer about someone he has long considered a political ally.
"If he said that I didn't hear it and I'm not in the business of congratulating people in their political machine kinds of things," Bloomberg said at a City Hall press conferenc.
"Beats me: If that's what the public wants or the Democratic Party wants, they've got a right to elect him," the mayor continued.
The city Department of Investigation last week released a bombshell report on the Ridgewood Bushwick Senior Citizens Council, a massive nonprofit with close ties to Lopez.
The mayor has previously defended Lopez amid the revelations about the nonprofit.
DOI found Ridgewood-Bushwick – which employs Lopez's longtime girlfriend and campaign manager – committed fraud, including determining that at least seven of the group's nine board members approved contracts without knowing what they contained.
Meanwhile, money flowing from Albany to Ridgewood-Bushwick will be subject to a higher level of scrutiny by state Comptroller Tom DiNapoli.
"In light of the recent disclosures about the Ridgewood-Bushwick Senior Center, we have placed an additioanl layer of review on all contracts and payments to the center," said DiNapoli spokesman Dennis Tompkins.
Lopez has defended Ridgewood Bushwick and said he has no ties to the organization he founded in the 1970s, even though he steers discretionary funds to it and use many of its employees in his political operations.
DOI, which is continuing to investigate Ridgewood Bushwick, also found a scandal at one of its subsidiaries – Hope Gardens Multi-Service Center. Investigators said the center's director, Anna Gonzalez, opened a second nonprofit that received city funding in 2009, even though it had not filed IRS forms for years.

Ian H.
Class of 2015
Read my blog: Class of 2015 Freshman Blog—Ian H.
Hometown: Milan, Italy
Major: Matierials Science & Engineering, Chemistry
Minor: Possible minor in Entrepreneurship and Management
Current residence: AMR II, Adams House
Campus involvement: SAAB, Badminton Club, JHU Model UN, Engineers without Borders, Blue Key Society, HERO, American Red Cross Disaster Response
Why I chose Johns Hopkins: Coming from a very diverse international school overseas, I wanted a university that could offer me the same sense of multiculturalism, tolerance, and friendliness I found at home. Johns Hopkins also has incredible opportunities for research that are just not found for undergraduates elsewhere. Lastly, the quality of the education at Hopkins is excellent and people worldwide recognize the name "Johns Hopkins" (unfortunately sometimes as 'John Hopkins').
Favorite class: Anthropology of Media—it's a fascinating and small class taught by Dr. Anand Pandian that explores the ever-changing role of media in our lives and how mediation has affected our development of the 21st century. Ranging from topics such as social networks (Facebook and Twitter) to medicine, photography, and contemporary painting, this course offers everyone the opportunity to contribute their different points of view and conduct an independent research project that will actually be published.
My favorite character from a movie/book/television series: Dexter from the cartoon Dexter's Laboratory. Dexter was one of the only cartoons that featured an intelligent main character and praised him for that, not like many other shows where we giggle because of a character's stupidity.
Favorite place in Baltimore: The Book Thing. It's a bookstore a few blocks from campus that gives away free books. Literally, all of their books are free. People donate hundreds of thousands of books to them every year and on weekends you can go there and take as many books as you want. Some of my friends even found some required readings for their classes there and saved almost $100!
What I want to do with my major: Despite what you'd think based upon my majors, I am not pre-med. I would really like to do research, or possibly start my own business. I'm keeping all of my options open so I can do whatever seems right for me!
Coolest (spring/summe/winter) break experience: The summer after my junior year of high school I went to a three-week student-led volunteer trip to Ghana, Africa. We worked and lived in a rural village, immersing ourselves in the Ghanaian culture, cooking and traditions. It was one of the greatest experiences of my life, and to this day I still am in touch with some of the villagers.

Hospitals can save more on their energy consumption. A general survey conducted by TNO DuCHA (Dutch Centre for Health Assets) indicates that on average, hospitals can save 12% on their energy consumption. Substantial savings are also possible for the hospitals in our region, especially in the fields of lighting, ventilation, and humidifiers. These results were presented during four Energy Master Classes for hospitals held in 2011. On 8 February 2012, the final master class was held in the Maasstad Hospital, Rotterdam.
these Energy Master Classes, hospitals exchange experience and know-how. Alexandra
Van Huffelen, the Rotterdam alderman for sustainability, inner city and public
spaces said: "What is special about this initiative is that the hospitals
in the Rijnmond area are seeking out each other's expertise. They are all
benefiting from an insider's perspective. Their energy bills go down as they
save on their energy consumption; with an average of 150,000 euros per
hospital. Additionally, they are contributing to the Rotterdam Climate
Initiative objective to reduce CO2 emissions by 50% by 2025."
Declaration of Intent
To show that they mean business, the hospitals recently signed a declaration of intent. In the Declaration, they stated that they will continue to share their knowledge and expertise. Each hospital will set down their ambitions in an energy savings plan. The Declaration was also signed by the Ministry of the Interior that develops national legal and regulatory provisions designed to encourage energy savings in urban areas. The ministry wants to emphasize that it values energy savings.
focus primarily on delivering high quality care at an affordable price. There
was never a real need to save on energy consumption in the past. Reliable
delivery of care was a far more important topic of interest. However, the focus
is changing. As a result of the increasing costs of hospital care, energy
savings are gaining interest. Although
the cost savings may be limited in relation to the total costs of a hospital,
absolute amounts may still be considerable.
Bulk consumers
Of all the buildings in the
Rotterdam, Spijkenisse, Capelle aan den IJssel, and Schiedam municipalities,
the hospitals take up approx. 4% of the total energy consumption. The Rijnmond hospitals emit approximately
125,000 tons of CO2 each year. This is according to a recent study by the DCMR
Environmental Protection Agency Rijnmond. An increasing demand for care and a
more intense use of equipment will lead to higher energy consumption in the
coming years. Jan Van Den Heuvel, DCMR Director: "Hospitals are legally
required to take structural energy saving measures. It is stipulated in their
environmental permit.
What now?
In 2012, the hospitals developed an
energy saving strategy. They are supported by the DCMR and TNO DuCHA, who will
monitor the results of the strategy and the energy consumption of the
Organisation and participants
The master classes are organised as part of the Rotterdam Climate Initiative. Organisation of the master classes was a joint effort from DCMR Environmental Service Rijnmond, TNO DuCHA, and Agentschap NL. By order of the government, Agentschap NL is using its own knowledge and expertise to support the branch-wide strategy, Hospitals in Rotterdam (Erasmus MC, Sint Franciscus Gasthuis, Havenziekenhuis, the Oogziekenhuis Rotterdam, Maasstad Ziekenhuis, and Ikazia Ziekenhuis), Schiedam (Vlietland ziekenhuis), Capelle a/d IJssel (IJsselland Ziekenhuis) and Spijkenisse (Ruwaard van Putten Ziekenhuis) all took part in the strategy. The energy savings of the hospitals will contribute to the Rotterdam Climate Initiative (RCI) objective of a 50% reduction in CO2 emissions, and of being climate proof by 2025. Together with residents, companies, and institutions, these parties are taking responsibility for a sustainable future. Institutions and companies are important target groups when it comes to realising the CO2 reduction goals for the city.
DCMR Environmental Protection Agency Rijnmond is the joint environmental service of the Province of Zuid-Holland and of fifteen municipalities in the Rijnmond area. DCMR is committed to reducing the environmental pressures for 1.2 million residents in the region. Additionally, DCMR provides support to municipalities, government institutions and companies; either regional, national, or internal.

The staff at the Valleyview Autopro are absolutely wonderful! They're kind, knowledgeable and a pleasure to deal with overall! I trust them with my vehicles and I would gladly go to Autopro for all of my regular service and maintenance. Unfortunately, after recently visiting for an oil change that cost me $89.00. I might have to consider going places like Mr. Lube next time. This saddens me because I really do love the staff and great service at Autopro. Why must their oil changes be so expensive??

Religious Toys
This week we're going straight to Hell with a fun and playful edition of Photoshop Phriday focusing entirely on religious themed toys. If you're the ultra sensitive religious sort and you've made it this far, you might want to turn around or pray for our souls or whatever it is you feel compelled to do when blasphemy is piped through your TCP/IP protocol. Pretty much everybody who grew up in a religious household at one time or another got stuck with a boring Bible-friendly toy completely devoid of any sort of kung-fu grip or side mounted plastic missile launcher. Trying to derive fun out of a toy based on a 2000-year old book isn't always easy, especially when coupled with the brazen agenda of teaching you the importance of religion. Well, after two millenniums of torture, we're fighting back with some really cool religious toys. Oh, who are we kidding, there is no such thing! Get ready for the Something Awful Forums take on religious toys. Don't worry, all the major religions and then some are represented!
"Inky" cheated and called upon the awesome power of the third dimension.
"Pixelman" appears to enjoy annoying texture filters, but who doesn't like the PopeMobile?
"Nikodotcom" makes eating a delight.
HOW DO I CHECKMATE YOU STUPID FOOL? "mortalenema" is insane!
Hey look "Livestock", it isn't funny when I write stupid comments above your images, now is it? No, it's not.

The DNA molecule copies itself when cells divide. The double helix is then untwisted and forms two single strands which can be duplicated with the help of the enzyme DNA polymerase. Since A on one strand always corresponds to T on the other and G corresponds to C, two identical new DNA molecules are formed. If there is a misprint of one letter, a mutation occurs which is most often deleterious to the cell.
The blueprint of life is programmed into the genetic material and would, for a human being, fill at least a million typed pages. What kind of molecule is it that can store so much information inside each and every living cell, even though the cell is often not more than a hundredth of a millimetre across? We know that DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid) is the carrier of our hereditary characteristics and that it is based on two strands twisted about one another forming a double helix. The strands consist of alternating carbohydrate and phosphate molecules. On each carbohydrate sits one of the four nitrogenous molecules Adenine, Cytosine, Guanine and Thymine. A DNA strand can thus be compared with a long sentence (sequence) of code words, where each word consists of three letters that can be combined in many different ways, e.g. CAG, ACT. Each code word can be read by components inside the cell and translated into one of the twenty amino acids that build proteins. The three-dimensional structure, and hence the function, of the proteins is determined by the order in which the different amino acids are linked together according to the genetic code. Proteins are the cell's most important tools. In function as enzymes they maintain all the reactions needed for supporting life.

5. | Santa Rosa | ||
A sexual manuver where, during the heat of the moment, you slip yourself in the backdoor, uninvited and without knocking. Usually involves luring a girl to a cozy winery in California under false pretenses. Use of Grapeseed oil is reccommended. Oh man, I took this one chick down to Napa Valley last weekend and totally gave her the Santa Rosa.
1. | Santa Rosa | ||
A city of about 200,000 in northern California. It is about a 45 minute drive up the coast from san Francisco. Nice people, good weather, and great wine. THere is no such thing as an extremity in Santa rosa. OUr ghetto (west 9th) is a rural mini-slum, and out gangstas are nice enough (if you don't look them in the eye) Santa rosa is the major city of Sonoma County.
2. | Santa Rosa | ||
A beautiful city located in Sonoma County's 707 area code--- about 60 minutes north of San Francisco, with a population of approximately 160,000 people (5th largest city in the Bay Area). Home of great people, fine wine, and Charles Schultz. Main attractions include Asia Mart, Fountain Grove, and the Charles M. Schultz Museum. Guy #1: I wanna get some fine ass Chardonnay for my girlfriend
Guy #2: Let's go to Napa Guy #1: **slaps guy #2** GTFO, Napa is hella boring. We're going to Santa Rosa Sleek: I stabbed someone Jeff: Then gtfo Santa Rosa. In the olden days we used clubs; they build character. |

City of roughly 160,000 people located about 60 mi North of San Francisco. It's got it's really nice areas, but it also has several really ghetto neighborhoods that unless you fell like getting into a fight with mexican gang members, you had better steer clear of. These being namely the Apple Valley Neighborhood, West End (West 9th), and South Park/Roseland. However these areas are only really dangerous at night. O and 90% caucasian, thats bullshit. more like 50% at the most. Most of the rest are mexicans. Also, don't hang out at the transit mall at night. bad idea. There are a lot of fucking Mexicans in Santa Rosa.
Waay too many Mexicans in Santa Rosa. Seriously man. You have no idea. There are a lot of fucking Mexicans. They're fucking everywhere... shit... I think a Mexican just moved next-door! Damnit! Why don't these beaners just stay in their own country? Goddamn mexicans. |
4. | Santa Rosa | ||
A small city in northern california known for its friendly people, good wine, gangsters, and high percentage of mexican people. Everyone loves the mexican people though, so its okay. Very famous for harmony festival and other pimp things like that.
6. | Santa Rosa | ||
Beautiful city located 45 minutes north of San Francisco, nestled in the groin of the wine country. No extremes? Bullshit. triple digit heat in the summer, with evenings covered in fog. winter and fall very rainy.
90% caucasian. many white trash folks with pit bull mutts and no fear t-shirts. mullet hunting isn't even funny anymore here, there are so many. "Rob" sounds like a prime candidate for "fites". popular question of "what is there to do here?" and popular answer of "drink" is complete bullshit. if you find the need to entertain yourself via alcohol or drugs, you're most likely extremely boring. I really like Santa Rosa.
7. | Santa Rosa | ||
A city where your guarenteed 2 get in a fight or a big ass brawl ive lived here for 2 years and ive been in ALOT of fites I wanna get in a fight do you know where i could go?
Yeah just go to santa rosa |

Remember that teacher who used to revel in the power she had? Pass or fail. Stop or go. Control over your imminent future.
No one likes scrutiny. It makes you nervous. Especially when the balance of power is not in your favour.
The emerging use by government of websites that share performance data on publicly funded organisations represents both risk and opportunities. My School is a current example of an information portal that allows comparison of 10,000 Australian schools by pupil and financial performance. The Government's recent release of the Living Longer Living Better Aged Care Reform Package 2012 includes a My Aged Care website (anticipated launch early next year) with a ratings system deployed in four to five years.
A poor score on these websites will have a material impact on an organisation's reputation but it need not be the only source of information. You can limit the damage.

EL PASO -- Legendary football coaches, Heisman Trophy winners and even an Oscar-nominated actor have played in the Brut Sun Bowl during the past 75 years.
And if you can name 23 of these players, you could win VIP passes to the 76th Sun Bowl game on Dec. 31.
The Sun Bowl Association kicked off its "Spirit of 76" contest this weekend. Participants can log on to www.sunbowl.org and view a poster with the pictures of 23 key figures in the history of the game.
Anyone who correctly names the 23 players and coaches on the poster could win a package worth $1,300 that includes two Captain's Club tickets to the game, admission to the pregame parties and VIP parking.
"This is a fun way of kicking off the festivities for the 76th version of the Sun Bowl," said Bernie Olivas, the association's executive director. "The poster contest is a great way to get our fans involved and to show our wonderful history."
Some of football's biggest names have played in the Sun Bowl. They include running backs Tony Dorsett (Pitt) and Barry Sanders (Oklahoma State). Each won the Heisman Trophy -- Dorsett in 1976 and Sanders in 1988 -- and each starred in the National Football League.
Others who played in the Sun Bowl made their mark off the field. Florida State halfback Burt Reynolds, who is better known for his work as an actor, played in the 1955 Sun Bowl. His Seminoles lost to UTEP, 47-20. Former college coach and current ESPN analyst Lee Corso also was on that Florida State team.
"There's a little bit of everything," Olivas said. "We have had people that have played at the Sun Bowl and have made a great mark both on and off the field. We have a wonderful history."
The contest will be open through Nov. 30, and a winner will be announced in mid-December.
Besides the VIP grand prize winner, the association will give away five second-place prizes and 10 third-place prizes.
Second-place winners will receive $50 tickets to the Sun Bowl and parking passes. Third-place winners will receive $30 tickets to the game.
Olivas said he will give clues to the identities of the people on the poster during his weekly radio appearances on KROD-AM 600. The clues also will run in the El Paso Times.
George Cortez, who has attended the Sun Bowl for nearly 15 years, said he would give the contest a try in hopes of winning the VIP tickets.
"If I won, those would be the best tickets I would have ever had for any sporting event in my life," he said. "It's worth a shot."

The real winners at the Athens Olympic Games -- financially at least -- were mobile phone companies, says a nonprofit group based in Brussels that has been lobbying regulators to bring down costs.
The organization, the International Telecommunications Users Group, says that the companies reaped ''unjustifiably high'' profits from roaming charges, fees that are added when a cellphone user is outside the phone's network and another carrier handles the call.
Say a visitor from America used a T-Mobile USA phone to make a dinner reservation in Athens. A roaming charge of 1.21 euros (about $1.46) a minute would be added to the call. What if a visiting Swede telephoned her hotel desk? Her Tele2Comviq bill would have a roaming charge of 36 European cents (about 43 American cents) per minute -- well under the American customer's bill, but more than the 12 to 27 euro cents that the Greek mobile phone operators, TIM and Cosmote, charge for a local call, the user group said.

Frequently Asked Questions
Do you serve only men? We presently have two facilities, one that serves men and another, which serves women and children. The ministry aim is the same for both – to re-instate our clientele back into society through sharing the Gospel and allowing the Lord to change their hearts.
Do you provide more then "3 hots and a cot"? While the public sees our primary ministry as providing three meals and a bed for the night, we attempt to provide life-skills training to assist those who come through our doors. Additionally, we provide food assistance as well as give away clothing and household goods to those in need.
Is there really that much need in Sioux City for a Mission? The most recent statistics show that there are more than 700 homeless individuals in Woodbury County alone.
Do you accept donations other than cash, such as food, clothing, and home furnishings? Yes, in 2011, we served over 139,000 meals and gave away over $64,000 in clothing, home furnishings, personal and non-personal items, almost all of which was donated to the Mission.
Do you accept State and Federal Funding or participate in United Way? No. The Mission receives all of its support from individuals and other private sources of funding. Additionally, we do not accept funding from casinos or beer and alcohol distributors.
Are you associated with a church or denomination or Goodwill? The Gospel Mission is a member of the Association of Gospel Rescue Missions (AGRM). We are not a church or denomination. We are not affiliated with Goodwill Industries, the Soup Kitchen or Center for Siouxland.
How can I be sure my gift will be used wisely? The Gospel Mission has a 15-member board of directors, which provides oversight of the operations of the Mission. Additionally, a yearly financial audit is performed to verify that all accounting practices are being followed to ensure financial accountability of all gifts received. Our most recent auditor's report indicates that less than 10% of our financial donations are used for administrative and overhead costs. We strive to be good stewards of all donations and utilize them wisely to provide the services of our mission.
How can churches get involved? We elicit support from churches to conduct gospel services (we have a service each night of the year), participate in volunteer activities (working in our warehouse, sorting clothes, performing outdoor jobs), and assist in serving meals.
How long has the Mission been in operation? Henry and Edith Plumer founded the Mission in 1938. Its history has been lined with the faithful prayers, donations, and service of God's people, and has resulted in changed lives for many who have walked through our doors.
