CAMPBELLSVILLE, Ky. - King College earned a spot in the 2010 NCCAA Women's Soccer Mid-East Region Championship contest with a 4-0 decision over rival Covenant (Ga.) College in a contest played at Campbellsville (Ky.) University Friday.
King, now at 6-12 on the season and the No. 3 seed, will play top seed and host Campbellsville (Ky.) University after a 6-0 win over No. 4 seed Tennessee Temple University 6-0. King and Campbellsville have a 6 p.m. match Saturday to decide the NCCAA Mid-East region champion and the automatic bid to the NCCAA Division I Women's Soccer National Tournament. Covenant, the No. 2 seed, ends the season with a 10-7-1.
Maggie Lynskey (Chattanooga, Tenn.) had a pair of goals with one coming in each half for King.
Hannah Shankle (Bristol, Tenn.) booted home her team-high eighth goal of 2010 with 25 minutes left to cap the Lady Tornado scoring. Cheyenne Montgomery (Sevierville, Tenn.) assisted on the goal.
The other King goal was off Morgan Shelton's (Chattanooga, Tenn.) boot in the seventh minute which was also her eighth score of the season.
Abbey Kitts (Tazewell, Va.) stopped five shots from the Lady Scots for King's second shutout of the season and both have come in the last five outings. The Lady Tornado held rival Milligan (Tenn.) College scoreless on Oct. 19.
The four-goal margin was the largest in the series since King beat Covenant 3-0 in the 2007 season. Last season Covenant won a 2-1 match with King winning 2-1 and 1-0 in 2008.
Overall King had 13 shots, nine on goal, with just eight shots by Covenant.
The win coupled along with a victory at North Greenville (S.C.) University on Nov. 6 gives the Lady Tornado a two-game winning streak for the first time this season.

Hi, sorry for the late response. Here's the story copied and pasted:
15 Minutes of Fame is WoW.com's look at World of Warcraft personalities of all shapes and sizes -- from the renowned to the relatively anonymous, from the remarkable to the player next door. Tip us off to players you'd like to hear more about.
Should little kids play World of Warcraft? Players and non-players, parents and childless alike seem to relish pontificating. Ultimately, it all comes down to active parenting -- you have to judge whether your child's development and personality are suited for a dunk in the waters of a massively multiplayer world, and you have to stay plugged in, yourself.
For WoW player Tsiva, mother of an 8-year-old with Asperger Syndrome, the decision to bring her son into the game has paid off. "It's helped with his reading, counting, confidence, motor skills and it's provided him with a heck of an incentive to work hard outside of the game," she reports. Tsiva's been blogging since last summer about her son's adventures in Azeroth, in the hopes that their experience will enlighten other players and spread awareness of the ways playing games like World of Warcraft can be a positive force for many children, including those with disabilities.
Main character Tsiva Guild <Insurrection> Realm US Sentinels-H
Thomas' main character Merve Guild <Insurrection> Realm US Sentinels-H
15 Minutes of Fame: Tell us a little about Thomas' challenges and needs.
Tsiva: Thomas has Asperger Syndrome, which is considered a high-functioning form of autism. He also has ADHD and a receptive learning disorder. He was very hyper and rambunctious from the time he was a toddler and he didn't start talking until he was about 4 years old. I knew something other than his initial diagnosis, ADHD, was the problem but I couldn't put my finger on it. We had a lot of testing done on him, but it wasn't until he started exhibiting some tell-tale signs (making loud, bizarre noises compulsively) that it clicked in my head as to what it might be. My brother also has Asperger's, and when Thomas started making those same odd noises, I was fairly certain Thomas had the same thing. I had to raise some hell to get the testing done, but upon being tested, the specialist said that Thomas is a classic Asperger kid.
Since we got that diagnosis, Thomas was placed in a special needs class at a new school and he's getting the specialized teaching he needs. It was incredible to see him go from failing academically, depressed and destructive, and socially withdrawn to thriving academically (reading and writing, to boot!), self-confident and happy, and capable of interacting with other people in a more normal way.
What first gave you the idea of starting him in WoW?
Thomas has spent a lot of time at my side, just watching me play. I'm not sure why I did it, but while I was farming mobs in Netherstorm, I prompted him to start counting. And count he did. I was a little surprised at how well he was doing and it occurred to me that without killing the fun inherent in the game, I could get him to play the game and use it as a learning medium.
How do you see his gameplay helping him?
It seems like it's helped him in a multitude of ways. I've noticed some improvement with his eye-hand coordination. It's also helped with his counting and subtraction. As he progresses through quests that require him to get a set amount of items, he has to look at the numbers and figure out how many he's gotten and how many more he needs.
We've also used WoW as an incentive for working hard in school. He knows that if he focuses on his school work and works hard, and that if his teacher sends home positive feedback, he'll be able to get on WoW for a little bit that night. WoW has been a powerful motivator for him, and his teacher has remarked on how hard he's working with WoW as an incentive.
How has his gameplay evolved since he began playing?
Well, he started out very slowly. He has problems with his motor skills, so at first, he was very slow when it came to moving his toon around and fighting mobs. Now, he moves his toon around and fights very fluidly. He also no longer mindlessly just spams certain moves. It took a while to get him to understand that sometimes it's good to go on the offensive and sometimes you need to stop and quickly heal yourself or others with you. (His main is a druid.) Lastly, his communication skills are a lot better, so he's been able to reply to others in-game.
And now you're playing along with him. How has that changed things?
Well, it's made me appreciate how easily I can do stuff in game. For Merve, he's making great progress and he's learning a lot, but a lot of the in-game stuff doesn't necessarily come easily to him. I have to work with him on certain things and coach him. It's frustrating for us both, but rewarding when he gets new achievements, does new things and gets really stoked about it. I've also had to cut back some of my own personal play time to accommodate running him through dungeons and helping out in game when he needs it. It's worth it, though. ;)
What restrictions and limitations do you place on his gameplay?
Well, I let him play for 30 minutes to an hour most nights, plus or minus. If it's not a school night, I'll sometimes let him play longer. I'm sure he'd play a lot longer if I let him, but I prefer he goes outside to play and do things other than WoW.
In game, he's not allowed to group or chat with players he doesn't know. His communication skills in game are still rather limited. He can read quite a bit, but he has a hard time typing up responses. He has to abide by a no-whisper, no-group, no-trade and no-target rule to avoid him pestering people who don't know him and don't know his communication limitations.
I've had some people wonder what the point of him playing in an MMO is when he can't interact much with other players. Even without the interaction, though, he still manages to have a good time -- and to me, that's the entire point.
What's his favorite in-game activity?
He likes to fish and farm mobs. He gets really excited when I take him into dungeons, but if he had his way, I think he'd be more than happy to wander Azeroth, killing mobs along the way.
What is his behavior like now?
Thomas takes medication for his compulsiveness. There are some things, though, that medication can't fix. He is still, to a degree, more impulsive than a typical kid, even with his medication. He has a hard time focusing. He doesn't pick up on "normal kid" things. There's a lot of stuff kids pick up without being taught. Those sort of things we have to make it a point to teach him, and it's not always easy.
He also views things in a totally different way from other people. He simply does not relate the same way. He's very obsessive. He likes to hoard things. He's often noticeably anxious in social situations and will cling to you if you don't get onto him. And he doesn't have a sense of what's right and wrong socially, like most people do. It leads to some awkward situations. Mind you, he's doing so much better than he was before. But it can still be very stressful dealing with his issues.
How's school going?
He's working on reading comprehension, grammar and math. His teacher is also teaching him social skills that he didn't pick up like non-autistic kids do. I've seen him do things this year that a couple of years ago, I wasn't confident he'd ever be able to do. It's been within the last half year that he's really started to read and write well.
What about your own main character?
Casual raider, altaholic, PvPer ... I really like to mix it up. I raid a couple nights each week and spend the rest of my time either PvPing, chatting with friends or working on alts. I also find myself going off after certain objectives (achievements, mounts, etc.) when the mood strikes me. I have two level 80 priests, Tsiva being my second but more progressed priest. I main tank-heal with her for a casual 10-man raid group that I absolutely love. I also PvP quite a bit. I enjoy being that annoying disc priest who's a pain to kill.
How did you get into WoW?
My husband and I wanted an inexpensive way to spend time together. We figured 30 bucks a month for the two of us would be a lot less costly than going out every weekend. So, we got a couple of trial discs at a local Best Buy, were immediately hooked and the rest is history.
Fantastic story! I was worried at first until I saw the no whisper, no group rules, etc. I was afraid of the type of people he might have to deal with. This story makes me feel guilty for all the people I've been short with :<

Women takes wrong turn at level crossing sparking police response
A woman has brought Metro trains to a standstill after a woman took a wrong turn at a level crossing and drove on the tracks.
How on earth she managed to do that we will never know, despite the bumpy journey and being on a train track she continued her journey, Maybe she was taking a shortcut?.
Police raced to the scene and Trains were suspended causing delays between Newcastle Airport and Regent Centre after the car was spotted on the line at Kingston Park.
Nexus Rail worker Danny Usher has told Police Hour that an 89-year-old woman got confused and took a wrong turn and made a mistake,
"The lady was 89 years old the poor women got confused and made a mistake luckily nobody was hurt and the police have taken her licence off her for her own safety"

Police have said the driver had gotten lost and took a wrong turn onto the railway and was heading towards Bank Foot station before she stopped at the platform.
Police responded to the incident at 8.30pm and helped get the woman out of the car to safety.
The track has also been checked for any damage before trains resumed at 9.15pm.

Sunderland Doctor secretly took pictures of woman at stages of undress while seeing the DR
A trusted doctor in Sunderland has been sentenced to 14 months in jail after secretly taking of pictures and videos of his patients.
Last month (July), Dr Thair Altaii, 55, was found guilty of three counts of voyeurism between 2008 and 2014.
The GP, of White Rocks Grove, Whitburn, was found to have more than 19,000 images of women on his laptop, some clothed and others in various stages of undress, after one of his patients raised concerns to police. A number of videos were also found on Altaii's laptop and other equipment.
After being found guilty of all charges by a jury, Altaii was today (Tuesday, August 14) back at Newcastle Crown Court as the judge sentenced him to 14 months' imprisonment.
Detective Constable Lee Boys, of Northumbria Police, said: "Thair Altaii clearly abused his position of trust and caused inevitable distress to his victims, who were totally unaware of what he was doing.
"He must now deal with the consequences of his actions, having destroyed his own professional career and reputation.
"I would like to take this opportunity to thank his victims for the courage, determination and dignity they have shown throughout this investigation, and for their assistance at every step of the process.
"It is their bravery and willingness to inform police of Altaii's suspicious behaviour that has resulted in his conviction, ensuring no more of his patients can become unwilling and unknowing victims."
Altaii was arrested in August 2014 after a patient noticed two propped up mobile phones – one on his desk and another on a shelf overlooking the examination table – during an appointment and subsequently alerted police.
His laptop, along with other equipment, was subsequently seized by officers.
The doctor, who was suspended from his role after the allegations came to light, claimed the images were captured for his own assessment and training purposes.
He initially denied recording any of his patients without consent when first spoken to by police.
But during a later interview, he accepted recording nine medical consultations without permission of the patients or making them aware.
When shown some of the images recovered from his laptop, Altaii said they may have been produced automatically after filming appointments "for training reasons".
The doctor pleaded not guilty to all charges at court and denied any of the images or videos were taken for sexual gratification.
Any patients who have concerns are asked to call 0800 464 0386 or 0330 041 2186.

Terror suspect not cooperating with police Assistant Commissioner says
Met Police assistant commissioner Neil Basu is providing an update outside New Scotland Yard.
He says the suspect, who is yet to be formally identified, is "not currently cooperating" with officers.
He adds police cordons are "likely to be in place for some time" as the investigation continues.
Basu says there "wasn't a police car in pursuit of the vehicle" prior to it crashing into a security barrier outside Parliament.
He adds: "I believe it was an ambulance on a completely unrelated call."
Armed officers are currently dealing with an ongoing incident outside of Parliament.
A vehicle was involved in a collision and armed police quickly deployed to the scene.
The vehicle crashed into a crash barrier that is there to protect the Houses of Parliament.
Met Police have confirmed a number of people have been hurt and the male driver has been arrested
At 0737hrs today, a car was in collision with barriers outside the Houses of Parliament. The male driver of the car was detained by officers at the scene. A number of pedestrians have been injured. Officers remain at the scene. We will issue further info when we have it.
— Metropolitan Police (@metpoliceuk) August 14, 2018
Armed police approached the vehicle after it crashed into barriers.
Police quickly cleared the area and put a cordon in place.

— Police Hour (@PoliceHour) August 14, 2018
The nature of the incident is not yet clear.
An eye witness has told Police Hour that he saw the vehicle driving at speed hit the crash barrier, police did not approach the vehicle until specialist officers arrived.
Specialist officers armed forced the door open and then forced everyone back.
The vehicle is in a security slip road entry point that would require a driver to leave their main route. It is very unusual for drivers to enter this part of Westminster pic.twitter.com/WYfolUMc1z

Again almost half an hour after the incident police have further extended the cordon.

PARKERSBURG, Iowa —
A former Iowa teacher faces charges after admitting to sexual misconduct with students.
On Friday, police said Ashley Nicole Anderson, 24, turned herself in to the Butler County Sheriff's Office.
Court records show that Anderson admitted to engaging in sexual conduct with four students -- ages 16-18 -- during the 2011-2012 school year.
According to an affidavit, Anderson admitted to activity ranging from sending nude photos of herself to the students via text messages to sexual intercourse with one of the victims.
Anderson, who taught high school math classes for the Aplington-Parkersburg Community School District since 2010, resigned from her position in the fall of 2012.
Anderson faces four counts of sexual exploitation by a school employee.

January Jones on Sundance, Shotguns, and What's Next for Betty on Mad Men
"I'm in it more."
Mad Men fans, accustomed to the perfectly coiffed Betty Draper, will be surprised by January Jones's character in Sweetwater, which premiered last night at Sundance. Jones plays Sarah, a former prostitute with a messy strawberry-blonde braid, who fends for herself in nineteenth-century New Mexico and thinks nothing of shooting lascivious men in the butt. We spoke to the South Dakota native about shooting guns, drinking beer, and why Betty Draper will never escape her funk.
Your character's this gunslinging, horseback-riding dame. Are you more like her or Betty?
Oh, God. Sarah. I related to her strength, as brutal as it is.
It's almost like she gets to take the revenge that Betty doesn't get to take.
Right, you want Betty to. And she does a little bit, but there are times when I get so frustrated with her. You know? Like, why don't you say something? The last few films I've done, I've played the villain. I just think it's really fun for me because it's not things that I get to do in real life. I'm not going out and punching people and blowing shit up. I mean, if you're an actor, wouldn't you want to do fun stuff like that? Like shooting and riding horses and shooting a guy's dick off and things?
Did you know how to shoot a gun?
Yeah. My dad would always go shooting, like, pheasants and ducks and stuff. I never did that. He takes me clay shooting quite a bit. We go do that. I'm not as familiar with handguns, only from films I've done. But, yeah, I felt more comfortable with them than the sheep.
Are you more comfortable with a rifle?
Yeah, shotgun or rifle. Much, much easier. And it's also less scary for me, I think. I feel like handguns are for a certain reason, while shotguns and rifles are for sport.
I've read that you like to drink beers and hang out and watch football.
I mean, my family — that's just the way I was raised. We're from South Dakota. We watch a lot of sports and don't drink fancy drinks, and we eat a lot of meat and potatoes. I like the glamorous aspects of my job too. I like, you know, putting on expensive frocks and going on the red carpet once in a while. But mostly I'm pretty laid-back.
If you had your druthers, where would you like to see Betty go? She's had a rough couple of years.
It's interesting to hear people's perspectives, because I felt like the first few seasons were rough, and then she's made steps in the last couple seasons to be happier, by leaving Don and marrying Henry and trying to be a better mom. And I think that she's in the best place we've seen her — but I'm not sure she'll ever be completely happy. I don't know if she knows how to do that. She's one of those people who's always searching for something else, so even if she finds it, I don't know if she'd recognize it. And it's sad, because Henry's, like, a great husband and a great guy, and he took in her kids, and he's like this kind of perfect guy, and she's still searching for something.
I guess she could go to a place where she's more self-actualized?
I don't know what would make her happy. I mean, even when she found out last year that she wasn't dying, she was like, "Great, so I'm just fat." I mean, there's no silver lining for her, but I don't know.
But maybe Matt Weiner will give her a silver lining?
But I don't think he wants — that's not realistic, and he's very true to human nature. Some people don't get silver linings, and that's not interesting anyway.
What can we look forward to this season?
I'm in it more. I can only say that, I think. We're halfway done — and I've gotten to do a lot of weird stuff.

State Coalitions to Dismantle the Pipeline
State Coalitions to Dismantle the Pipeline
The Cradle to Prison Pipeline campaign launched during a national summit in September 2007 held at Howard University in Washington, D.C. Community leaders, government officials, educators, parents and young people responded by forming coalitions to keep children in school and out of trouble in their communities. Summits have convened in Arkansas, California, Louisiana, Massachusetts, Minnesota, Mississippi, New York, Ohio and Texas. During the meetings, participants formulate action plans and form working groups to promote best practices, build community and confront policies that are contributing to the crisis in their state.
On January 25th, 2011, the Massachusetts coalition reconvened to continue the work of addressing zero tolerance and school discipline policies that are funneling children into the state's criminal justice system. Learn more about the goals and principles of the Massachusetts coalition and download the group's action plan.
Listen to a radio interview with Barbara Best, CDF's Director of Foundation Relations and Special Projects, about the Massachusetts Coalition's work.

BEULAH, Mich. (AP) — The father of a 14-year-old northern Michigan autistic girl whose mother is charged with trying to kill her says his daughter's condition has improved in recent days.
A posting on Matt Stapleton's Facebook page says Isabelle is breathing on her own, walking, talking, and out of the critical care unit at a Grand Rapids hospital after doctors decided Friday to remove her from a ventilator.
Kelli Stapleton was charged last week with attempted murder in what police describe as a murder-suicide attempt. State police say Stapleton and her daughter were found unconscious from carbon monoxide poisoning in a van Tuesday.
The Stapletons live in Elberta, west of Traverse City. Kelli Stapleton has written about Isabelle's severe autism on a blog called The Status Woe.

The 17th Annual Big Ball Marathon was held Friday and Saturday at Silver Lake Park in Middletown
The 17th Annual MOT Big Ball Marathon is now in the history books. By all accounts the fund-raising event was a smashing success financially, and on the softball fields at Silver Lake Park in Middletown.
"I am pretty confident we will wind up around the $50,000 dollar mark, so around the same amount as we made last year, said Big Ball Marathon Director Kate Rokosz. "We may have been a little higher last years, but we received several big grants from organizations that helped our grand total in 2013. This year we were blessed with terrific weather, and that helped out with our turnout."
Rokosz said it takes about one thousand people to put the event together every year. "We have a committee of twelve people who work on the project all year long, then you have 42 incoming softball teams, four marathon teams, who play all 24 hours, tons of community sponsors who donate food for the players and companies that supply tents and all of our food vendors, and it takes all one thousand people to pull off this event."
The goal of the Marathon is to raise money to assists individuals, families in need, charities, and organizations in the MOT communities.
"We have a safety-net program, we help the various agencies in the MOT area the boys & girls club, some schools, some seniors and churches, and we have grants for people to apply for that assistance," said Rokosz.
If anyone in the community needs assistance, they can go online to bigball.org, and there are grant applications on the website.
The Big Ball Marathon started at 6 p.m. on Friday night with an opening ceremony and a Home Run Derby on the MOT Little League Fields.
The Softball teams then took center stage and played throughout the night to the delight of some, and the eventual dismay of a few ambitious, but exhausted, weekend athletes.
The 24-hour marathon wrapped up with a unique event; riders on horseback from C-Line Stables, playing a form of modified softball.
Carol Shane, from Townsend, said she came out to watch the horses and riders, "This is just plain fun. We know some of the riders and the horses and this is a very exciting afternoon."
Carol's daughter, Summer Shane, said she was also having a lot of fun. "I like to ride horses, so I know some of the horses and the riders, so I am having lots of fun today, too," she said.
Committee member Ted Whitlock, who's been with the Marathon for three years, said the event has been growing nicely over the past five years. This year we probably had about 46 softball games played over the
24-hour period. "We have boys and girls, and people of all ages out on the softball fields, so there's literally hundreds of people playing softball for a great cause, and they are all having lots of fun for 24-hours. And, I would add that people love the fact that they can come out here to Silver Lake, have some fun, and raise money for people and organizations in need," he said. "Last year, we even sent some money to a family down south to help them recover from a tornado. Bottom line; we are helping people who need help."
While this is the 17th year of the event, Whitlock said the Big Ball Marathon actually started about three decades ago as a fund-raiser for Muscular Dystrophy. "And that went on for a number of years, but then gradually died off for whatever reason, then 17 years ago, one of local citizens decide to restart the Big Ball Marathon, only this time, keep the money in the community. And since then, it's become a bigger success," said Whitlock.

Calipari Leaves Memphis For Kentucky
March 31, 2009
LEXINGTON, Ky. (AP) -John Calipari agreed Tuesday to leave Memphis and the dominant program he built and take on the challenge - and riches - of returning Kentucky to college basketball glory.
Calipari will receive an eight-year, $35 million deal, making him the highest-paid coach in college basketball, ESPN.com reported, citing an unidentified source. He will get a $2.5 million signing bonus and $3 million per year for the first four years. The next four years, Calipari will get an additional $1.5 million per year, increasing his salary to $4.5 million with incentives pushing it up to $35 million.
A person close to the negotiations, who spoke on the condition of anonymity because a contract hadn't been signed, told The Associated Press that Calipari was on his way to Lexington to finalize the agreement.
Kentucky has scheduled a press conference for 9:30 a.m. Wednesday to introduce its new coach.
The 50-year-old Calipari has a career record of 445-140 in 17 seasons. He chose to leave Memphis after nine seasons of success, including a record of 137-14 over the past four years.
He spent the day considering the Wildcats' lucrative offer and calling former Kentucky coaches, including Joe B. Hall.
Hall said the informal chat centered on what it takes to survive one of college basketball's most prestigious and most scrutinized jobs. Kentucky fired Billy Gillispie last Friday after two disappointing seasons.
The Commercial Appeal of Memphis, Tenn., first reported the hiring.
Tigers walk-on Preston Laird said Calipari met with the team Tuesday afternoon, first as a group and then with individual players. The freshman guard described the meeting as very quiet, "Nobody really said anything."
"He started off by telling us it was the hardest day of his life," Laird said.
Memphis has scheduled a news conference for noon to discuss the future of its basketball program.
Hoping to make a big splash after Gillispie's tenure, Kentucky reportedly went deep into its pockets to land one of the nation's most high-profile coaches.
Calipari's deal would eclipse the $3.5 million average salary of Florida's Billy Donovan and dwarf those of Calipari's predecessors Rick Pitino, Tubby Smith and Gillispie.
Pitino, now the coach at rival Louisville, never made more than $2 million a season during his remarkably successful eight-year run at Kentucky. Smith's compensation neared $2.1 million at the end of his decade with the program and Gillispie received a base salary of $2.3 million with another $750,000 available in incentives.
The salary nearly triples the $1.6 million salary of Kentucky football coach Rich Brooks, a rarity in a conference where football reigns.
Calipari already was one of the highest-paid coaches in the country, signing an extension with Memphis last year that paid him $2.35 million annually.
Memphis had promised to match whatever Kentucky offers, but the Wildcats have one thing Memphis doesn't: the opportunity to coach in a top-flight conference at the home of college basketball's winningest program.
It'll be seen as money well spent if Calipari can duplicate the success that's followed him throughout his collegiate coaching career.
He put together turnarounds at Massachusetts and Memphis, winning over 440 games in 17 seasons and leading both schools to a Final Four.
Putting the pieces together at Kentucky might not take long, though the program has plenty of question marks.
The Wildcats went 22-14 this year, missing the NCAA tournament for the first time since 1991 despite having two of the SEC's best players in guard Jodie Meeks and forward Patrick Patterson.
Patterson said after the season he'd likely return for his junior year, while Meeks - a second-team All-American - was going to take his time on a decision.
Hiring Calipari might be all the incentive they need to return. He won over fans and made over the program at Memphis behind an electrifying style of play that has churned out a handful of NBA players, including Derrick Rose, Shawnae Williams, Dejuan Wagner and Joey Dorsey.
Calipari's ability to lure some of the nation's best high school players - regardless of how long they plan on sticking around - has made him an attractive candidate for years.
He's been able to fight off temptation for nearly a decade, but the chance to makeover one of college basketball's elite programs proved to be too much.
Athletic director Mitch Barnhart stressed the need to find a coach who can handle all that comes with coaching the Wildcats. Calipari has never met a camera he didn't like and certainly doesn't lack confidence - two things Gillispie struggled with during his tenure.
Kentucky received permission to speak to Calipari on Monday, less than 72 hours after Gillispie was fired. Sensing the need to make a home-run hire after the Gillispie debacle, Calipari certainly has the resume and the charm to sate a rabid fan base.
But he also has some baggage. He led Massachusetts to the Final Four in 1996 only to have the school vacate the honor when star Marcus Camby admitted to receiving gifts from a sports agent.
Though Calipari has never been sanctioned by the NCAA, he's been unable to shed the Camby mess. His hiring could raise some eyebrows from fans still smarting from the recruiting violations during the Eddie Sutton era 20 years ago that nearly wrecked the program.
Pitino swooped in to save Kentucky after Sutton left, taking the Wildcats to three Final Fours and a national title in eight years.
Neither Gillispie nor Smith duplicated that success, but neither had the charisma nor swagger of Calipari, who now finds himself working an hour east of Pitino.
The two have a long history dating back to when Pitino recommended Calipari for the head coaching job at UMass in 1988. Pitino's Kentucky team beat Calipari's UMass squad in the '96 Final Four and the two have had a testy - at least on the floor - relationship ever since.
The rivalry really began when Pitino took over at Louisville in 2001 as the Cardinals and the Tigers fought with Cincinnati and Marquette for C-USA supremacy. Those three programs left for the Big East in 2005, and Memphis has since dominated the conference.
Memphis hasn't lost a C-USA game since 2006, and the Tigers are the only program in the country to receive either a No. 1 or No. 2 seed in the NCAA tournament in each of the last four years.
AP Sports Writers Teresa M. Walker in Nashville, Tenn., Jeff McMurray in Lexington, Ky., and Associated Press Writers Woody Baird and Beth Rucker in Memphis contributed to this report.

Chaney Does a Texas Carnival
I thought I was done with Halloween for this year till providence guided me to a trade account of beaten but unbowed Lon Chaney (The Lonster for those who revere him) dragging weary baggage to an El Paso pre-Halloween appearance circa October 1964. Junior's a cautionary fable for all of us tempted to light up a Lucky or have that second snifter. He's what happened to those who took career paths better left alone. I understand Lon began at plumbing and excelled at it. Lean times forced him into movies. He could barter Dad's name for better money than was in fixing commodes. I always felt sorry for young Chaney and might even have taken up fishing had opportunity arisen to join the committed angler lakeside (Lon enjoyed best the simple pleasures in life). Texas hosts found Chaney's a rather sad, sweet face under the make-up as he joined celebrants at the Western Playground Amusement Park that October 17-18. Right now I'm making personal appearances to see where my ego belongs, said easy-to-like (their words) Lon. I want to find out if I'm an egomaniac or an introvert, and how the public feels about me. Yes, that's a quote. Chaney was 58 here. Wouldn't he know by now? Maybe one of the carnys supplied pre-interview libation, for El Paso's honored guest seized bully pulpit to sound off on what's wrong with the whole horror movie business. Monsters should be entertaining without being ridiculous, said Chaney. "The Wolf Man" was a highly popular piece of celluloid. We didn't clown it up. We worked at it sincerely and did it honestly. Perhaps wistfully, he'd add,
His "old monsters shows" served Lon best, for recent ones he'd done were little to brag on. 1964 had so far tendered Face Of The Screaming Werewolf and Withcraft (the latter released a month prior to his El Paso visit). I'd seen Werewolf at the Liberty (and remember thinking what a neat title that was to be appended to such a miserable film) with a thing called Curse Of The Stone Hand. Both were out of Mexico and plenty dire. It would be interesting to know how many (or few) bookings this combo managed nationwide. Chaney had last done reasonably classy work in AIP's The Haunted Palace, from late 1963. Otherwise, features amounted to short weeks with A.C. Lyles' ongoing outreach to vintage westerns, where cast members likely spent breaks talking of how good movies used to be. Maybe that inspired Lon to look back longingly on days past, even as he claimed to receive twice as much mail from 1964 fans. His manager in tow claimed 467 film credits for the actor and declared it a world's record. Chaney himself added that that he'd been in show business almost sixty years … which, according to the doubtful trade scribe, means he was wowin' 'em in the front rows from his cradle. Still, it was a sympathetic piece. At least Lon was out there pitching, and not too proud to reveal the title of his latest, Cannibal Orgy: The Weirdest Story Ever Told, which emerged finally as Spider Baby in 1968.
All of which reminds me of George Reeves sawdust tours too lightly attended in the late fifties. If only we'd all been there to cheer Lon and tell him how great he'd always been! Reporting from El Paso acknowledged he was the idol of the younger set. They didn't know the half of it. I'd have flipped had Lon Chaney showed up for one of our mangy carnivals, but all we got were bumper cars and caramel apples good for AM belly aches. Were there fan-snapped fotos made of Chaney that October? I'll bet a few El Paso attics hold mementos we'd all like to see. For myself, late Lon sightings would be limited to Screaming Werewolves and what was left of him in Witchcraft, and yes, I too was sympathetic. His Larry Talbot became a friend for life thanks to stations close around liberally playing The Wolf Man during the sixties. He was handsome then in a doomed kind of way. What happened to Larry seemed almost to be happening to Lon as well. Something about those sad eyes bespoke hardship on screen and off. His might have been the first movie character that made me want to cry for him. Things start off well for Larry, then go horribly amiss. Sort of like Chaney's career at Universal. Those Inner Sanctums to come were like one man's journey through disillusion and beyond. Who'd have expected Chaney to become such a fine character actor in the fifties? You wish he could have held things together a little longer, but Lon was game all the way to a 1973 end, and there's plenty in that to admire for El Paso fans grown up and the rest of us who missed out on a Halloween treat to surpass any we'll get in 2009 bags.

The stormlands[1][2] are one of the constituent regions of the Seven Kingdoms on the continent of Westeros. The Kingdom of the Storm was a sovereign nation until the War of Conquest, in which the last Storm King was slain. The region is so-named for the savage and frequent autumn storms that batter the coast after beginning in the Summer Sea.[3]
The stormlands are ruled from the castle of Storm's End by House Baratheon. Notable bannermen of the region include Buckler, Caron, Connington, Dondarrion, Errol, Estermont, Penrose, Selmy, Staedmon, Swann, Tarth, and Wylde.[4][5] Noble bastards raised in the stormlands are given the surname Storm.
- See also: Category:Places in the Stormlands
The stormlands are bordered to the north by the crownlands, west by the Reach, south by Dorne and the Sea of Dorne, and east by Shipbreaker Bay and the narrow sea. They are one of the smaller regions of Westeros, a land of harsh mountains, stony shores, and verdant forests, including the kingswood and the rainwood along Cape Wrath. Major rivers include the Slayne and part of the Wendwater.[2]
The Dornish Marches, located in the south-west in a long salient along the Red Mountains, serve as an effective buffer zone between the stormlands and their old enemies of the Reach and Dorne. For centuries it was a regular battleground, changing hands more than once until Dorne became part of the Seven Kingdoms.
A few islands, including Tarth and Estermont, are also considered part of the stormlands. Ships coming across the narrow sea avoid the notorious Shipbreaker Bay and its storms, though the seas along the stormlands can be clear and blue. The waters around Tarth are particularly famed for their clear blue color, earning Tarth the name "Sapphire Isle."

Although it is rainy, the region is fertile enough.[6] There are no cities in the stormlands due to the strong martial culture of the storm lords, but larger fortresses such as Bronzegate are often supported by several small towns.[7] The Weeping Town is a thriving port on the Sea of Dorne.[2] The kingsroad runs north from Storm's End to King's Landing in the crownlands.
Military strength
According to a semi-canon source from 2005, the population of the stormlands is diffused, and the region can perhaps raise some thirty thousand men.[8] In 206 AC, House Dondarrion on its own was able to raise nearly four thousand infantry and eight hundred cavalry.[9]
Possibly, as much as some twenty thousand stormlanders join Renly Baratheon in the War of the Five Kings.[10]
The stormlands were the domain of the Storm Kings of House Durrandon, whose territory in eastern Westeros once stretched from Cape Wrath to the Bay of Crabs.[11] King Arlan III Durrandon vanquished the river kings of House Teague, extending the Storm Kings' domain north to the Neck.[4][2] For thousands of years the Dornish Marches of the stormlands were the first line of defense against Dornish incursions from the south, so they have strong martial traditions and a number of strong castles, especially the marcher lords.[6]
However, the power of the Storm Kings declined over centuries due to pressure from the Kingdom of the Reach to the west and Dorne to the south.[11] The Storm King Arrec Durrandon lost the riverlands to Harwyn Hardhand of the Iron Islands.[4] Arrec's grandson, King Argilac Durrandon, killed King Garse VII Gardener at Summerfield and also fought alongside Pentos and Tyrosh against Volantis during the Century of Blood.[12][11]
Argilac the Arrogant was the last Storm King, however, as he was slain in the Last Storm during Aegon Targaryen's War of Conquest. Argilac's lands, titles, sigil, and house words were given to Orys of House Baratheon, who married Argilac's daughter, Argella Durrandon. Under Targaryen rule, the Baratheon storm lords continued to battle the Dornishmen until their incorporation into the Seven Kingdoms by King Daeron II Targaryen.
Robert's Rebellion saw the Baratheons raise a rebel alliance against Targaryen rule. When Lord Robert Baratheon returned from the Vale of Arryn to call his banners, he first had to defeat his recalcitrant bannermen at Summerhall before marching north to his eventual victory at the Trident. Robert's middle brother, Stannis, defended Storm's End during a siege by Lord Mace Tyrell of the Reach. Robert claimed the Iron Throne, forming the royal House Baratheon of King's Landing. Stannis took and was given Dragonstone, while the youngest brother, Renly, succeeded Robert as Lord of Storm's End.
Recent Events
A Game of Thrones
King Robert I Baratheon dies after hunting boar in the kingswood. Rather than kneel to the new king, Robert's alleged son Joffrey, Renly Baratheon, Lord of Storm's End, escapes King's Landing and allies with the Tyrells of Highgarden.[13]
A Clash of Kings
During the War of the Five Kings, the storm lords almost unanimously support Robert's youngest brother, Renly, before switching allegiance to the middle brother, Stannis, after Renly's death at Storm's End.
A Storm of Swords
Most of Stannis's bannermen kneel to King Joffrey I Baratheon after Stannis's defeat in the Battle of the Blackwater. Aside from the garrisons at Storm's End and Dragonstone, the remaining lords loyal to Stannis travel with him to defend the Wall and Castle Black from wildlings. King Joffrey dies at his wedding, and he is succeeded by his younger brother, Tommen.
A Feast for Crows
Lords Mace Tyrell and Mathis Rowan lay siege to Stannis's garrison at Storm's End. Mace returns to King's Landing when he hears that his daughter, Queen Margaery Tyrell, has been arrested, leaving Mathis to continue the siege.
A Dance with Dragons
Aside from Stannis's garrison at Storm's End, the stormlands hold to the peace of King Tommen I. Led by Jon Connington and Aegon Targaryen, however, the Golden Company invades Estermont and Cape Wrath, quickly taking Griffin's Roost, Greenstone, Rain House, and Crow's Nest.[14]

The Moundridge girls track and field team had a tremendous first day of the State Track and Field Championships at Wichita State University's Cessna Stadium Friday, as the Wildcats sit in second place in the Class 2A team competition after six events.
The Moundridge girls track and field team had a tremendous first day of the State Track and Field Championships at Wichita State University's Cessna Stadium Friday, as the Wildcats sit in second place in the Class 2A team competition after six events.
The Wildcats were propelled to the second place standing thanks, in part, to the freshman high jump duo of Rylie Dyck and Ashley Holler, who finished two-three in the event. Both jumpers hit a height of 5 feet, two inches, with the tie-breaker going to Dyck.
Also grabbing some points for Moundridge was Anna Stucky, who finished seventh in the long jump with a height of 16 feet, 2 inches. Stucky was also a member of the 4x100 and 4x400 meter relays, both of whom qualified for today's finals.
The 4x100 relay of Cassidy Siemens, Peri Lange, Bailey Strausz and Stucky finished second in the preliminaries with a time of 52.07 seconds, only a tenth of a second off from top-finishing Ellinwood.
Moundridge accumulated 16 team points for second, tied with Washington County and just behind Bennington's 18. Little River and Inman finished the day tied at 20th with four points.
Other Class 2A girls results include Inman's Savanah Case finishing fifth in the javelin with a throw of 115 feet, 7 inches. The winning throw from Madison Wolf of Bennington hit 137 feet, 9 inches.
Little River's Emily Baldwin also snagged a medal, as she finished fifth in the 2A discus throw with a hurl of 111 feet, 7 inches.
On the boys side, Inman senior Grant Garst provided some excitement in the 4x400 preliminary, as the Teutons were in the middle of the pack before Garst turned on the afterburners on the anchor leg of the relay.
Garst's 50.05 fourth leg was the fastest of any competitor in either heat and led Inman to a second place preliminary finish with a cumulative time of 3:34.23.
A whole slate of action involving area athletes from Class 2A is on tap for today. Inman's Krystal Miller kicks things off at 8:35 a.m. in the 100-meter dash preliminaries. That will be followed by Moundridge's Colby Badman and Little River's Ethan Wright in the boys 100 dash at 9:05 a.m.
The finals for the 100 will be at 12:47 p.m. and 1:07 p.m., respectively.
Other highlights include Garst attempting his repeat as boys 1,600 state champion at 2:12 p.m. The Moundridge girls 4x100 chases the gold starting at 3:23 p.m.
A full run-down of today's events involving area athletes can be found in the scoreboard.
Solomon led the boys competition after the first day with 23 points, followed by Pleasanton with 18. Sterling, Kiowa County and Ell-Saline round out the day one top five.

A rainbow is one of those delicate miracles that teaches that a greater-than-human mind had a role in the Creation. And, regardless of our religious beliefs, most of us find it astonishing that simple raindrops, falling in the rays of the sun, can separate white light into colors and suspend those vivid, glowing hues in a vast arc across the sky! What's more, aspects of rainbow science — the relationship of rainbows to the environment in which they take place — are equally fascinating, particularly since having a better understanding of the whys and wherefores of these fleeting bridges in the sky can help us to find and enjoy more of them. And there are an amazing number of different kinds of rainbows. Taken together, they make up a wealth of wonders to equal any imagined pot of gold.
In this journey through the realm of rainbows, we'll discover that many of the colorful arcs can appear in the sky at one time, and we'll learn what happens to them as the sun sets. We'll meet rainbows that lie on the ground and seem to stretch to infinity, rainbows that are as close as spider webs and lawn sprinklers, and others that can be seen a state away. There's a red rainbow, a white version (which sometimes shows orange and blue), a rainbow pillar, a "rose" of rainbows, and a rainbow for each person — and even each individual eye! (And there are Diagrams of Rainbows I've put together so you can keep up with the discussion that follows.)
Rainbows seen in the western morning sky will usually mean that precipitation is headed your way. But the phenomena can be expected to appear most often on summer afternoons when a shower or thunderstorm system hastening away to the east is suddenly illuminated by the sun. They're formed, you see, when light is refracted and reflected in raindrops. Because the various wavelengths of visible light (colors) bend at different angles when passing through the droplets, the colors separate and spread out in a band that's about three times wider than the sun or moon (when these heavenly bodies are viewed from the earth). The result is an astonishing circular spectrum, which is cut into an arch by the horizon and which ranges from red on the top, through a series of hues, to violet on the bottom.
Normally, we think of a rainbow as being made up of seven different colors, but this isn't strictly true. The variety of hues will depend upon a particular bow's visibility and upon the color recognition of the observer.
The common, or "primary," rainbow curves around a place opposite to the sun's position in the sky (this is called the "antisolar point") at an angular distance of about 42° from that spot. And, since your fist — held at arm's length — is about 10° wide, 42° will equal approximately four widths of your fist. To locate the antisolar point, just stand with your back to the sun, and the point will be at your head's shadow. Then, holding your arm straight out in front of you, you can measure four fist-widths up from that shadow to find the most likely location of the bow.
You'll note, too, that the largest arcs are seen when the sun is setting, because at that time the antisolar point draws closer to the opposite horizon, and fully half of the rainbow's circle can be visible. On the other hand, when the sun is at an angle greater than 42°, the rainbow will be completely below the horizon. Therefore, these colorful arches can never — in the U.S. and much of Europe, at least — be glimpsed around noon on a summer day. However, if the conditions are just right, you may be lucky enough to actually see the top of a rainbow begin to appear on the eastern horizon as the sun descends a bit, swelling into beauty like a sunrise.
Another strange sight sometimes occurs when you view a rainbow at sunset. As old Sol drops lower in the sky, the arch's colors will fade, one after another, until only the red band remains. This scarlet rainbow can even be seen for a while after the sun goes down, because some of the raindrops are far above ground level and are thus still illuminated. Finally, however, the ends of the red band will slowly disappear until only the peak of the bow is left as a shrinking, glowing red spot in the darkening east.
The only way to see the bottom curve of a rainbow (or perhaps the full 360 ° circle of it) is to be in a position that places a great many rain droplets between you and the ground — as might be the case when looking down on a shower from the vantage point of an airplane. Don't be fooled, however, if you notice several small, concentric circles of vivid color floating on the clouds below your window. They represent another wondrous (but far more common) sky phenomenon called "the glory." And, since only red and green-blue are visible in that strange sight, it can't be classed as a full-circle rainbow.
Many people are amazed when they observe a second 'bow above the first, but traces of a "secondary" rainbow are almost always visible if the primary phenomenon is clearly seen. This second arch is usually fainter and wider than is the main one, though, and has the order of its colors reversed with red on the bottom and violet on the top. (Look for its red band about 51° from the antisolar point.)
The secondary bow is caused by light which is reflected not once, but twice inside the raindrops; it's even possible to have more reflections and, therefore, more bows. The "higher-order rainbows" are, however, many times fainter than even the secondary types, and are rarely observed in nature. The third bow has supposedly been seen by a small number of people; the fourth—which, it's been theorized, falls directly in front of the sun—by no one; and the fifth by (perhaps) only one person, the nineteenth century scientist Mascart.
The individual who first calculated where the third rainbow should appear was Edmund Halley, the great English astronomer, whose famous comet will be returning in a few years. It turns out this third arc is also seen between the viewer and the sun, but not as directly in front of that blazing orb as is the fourth bow.
As many as 19 rainbows were visible in a special apparatus made by the nineteenth century scientist Felix Billet, who was able to make a beautiful diagram of where all those bows might appear in the sky. Each higher-order arc is wider than the one before it, and if we were able to see them in nature all at once, we'd find that virtually the whole sky would be filled with them! Billet called his circular diagram "a rose of rainbows."
Although these higher-order phenomena are extremely rare, there's a common type of addition to the primary bow which consists of extra bands of color. These alternate pink and green stripes are found just under the violet (bottom) band of the primary and are called "supernumerary arcs". They should not be considered true rainbows or even parts of a bow, because they're actually caused by the wave nature of light and are related to the small rings of red and green which are sometimes seen whole (but often in patches) when clouds float over and around the moon's face. These supernumerary arcs seldom extend along the entire length of the rainbow, but are more often seen under the highest point of the bow's arch. However, as many as five have been seen with a primary rainbow, their number and spacing depending upon the size of the rain droplets involved. When these are quite small, the first arc sometimes appears to be continuous with the bottom of the primary, but it should still be quite distinguishable by its difference in color from the primary's violet band. At other times, these supernumerary arcs can appear as virtually colorless curves of light.
Another interesting rainbow-related phenomenon, which is frequently and sometimes spectacularly visible, is "Alexander's dark band." First recorded a few centuries after Christ (by Alexander of Aphrodisias), this is a darker-than-normal patch of sky which occurs between the primary and secondary bow. (Even if the secondary is not visible, you should be able to see that the area just outside the top of the primary rainbow is darker than that under the arc.) This occurs because both the primary and secondary bows are refracting light away from this area, making it appear comparatively dark. (Whenever Alexander's dark band is not clearly seen, it's because the brightness or darkness of the background clouds masks the effect.)
Seeing rainbows in strange settings can be a special thrill, and not many such sightings could be more unusual than viewing a multicolored arc at night. (This phenomenon bears no close relation to the arcs or full circles which are fairly often seen around the moon and are known as lunar halos.) The moon is bright enough to create a night rainbow only when it's full or nearly so, and even then the arcs will usually be too dim to show much color. But just imagine how mystical and delicately enchanting it would be to see one of these rare moon rainbows with a few stars peeking through the clouds, or maybe even through the bow itself! Remember to look for night rainbows in the same position in the sky relative to the moon as the daytime arcs are to the sun.
If you're anywhere near a calm body of water, you may have a chance to see yet another marvelous sight: A reflected rainbow. There are actually two major kinds of phenomena that can be classed as such. The less frequent type is caused by the sun's bright image reflecting off the water to produce a rainbow from moisture in the air. A primary "sun-reflection" bow is always higher than the "regular" primary type, so that if both occur at the same time, an observer can see the almost unbelievable pattern laid out upon the face of water and sky. (Of course, even more intricate patterns may occur if secondary rainbows are visible!)
Quite often, however, only parts of a sun-reflection bow are seen. (When a single piece appears above the primary, this is called a "rainbow pillar".) Such effects can be caused by the location of the body or bodies of water involved. These lakes, ponds, etc. may be several miles from the observer and hidden from his or her view. It follows, then, that if pieces of a sun-reflection bow are missing, it might actually be possible to determine, from the bow, where the ponds or lakes that create the mini-arcs are located. Thus, little bodies of water can conspire to paint sections of a rainbow in the sky, which in turn reveal information about the local geography!
Though bows caused by a reflected sun are rather rare, another kind of reflection isn't. It's simply the reflected image, on the water, of a rainbow in the sky. But, strange as it may seem, the reflected rainbow that you see in the water is not the mirror image of the bow that's visible in the sky; it's the reflection of another one that you don't see!
Before I make this phenomenon sound even more astonishing (and perhaps confusing), let me try to explain it. The reflection shows us what we would see if we were looking at the rainbow in the sky from that point out in the water. (Actually, this is only approximately true, but it's sufficiently correct for our purposes.) That's because a rainbow is not an object in space. Instead, it's simply a function of light that's coming to us from a certain angle. Therefore, if we were observing the light from that point on the water, the rainbow we'd see in the sky would be a different one from that seen in the sky by a person back on the shore. So if you ever spot such a reflected rainbow, you might want to note the often dramatic differences between it and the one up above. (It's even possible for a sky rainbow to disappear, while what seems to be its reflection on the water remains visible!)
As a matter of fact, the bows seen by two people standing side by side will also be slightly different, in effect giving each person his or her own rainbow. Even the ones seen by each of your two eyes won't be quite the same. (Sometimes when swimming or looking at a lawn sprinkler, it's possible to get close enough to a light-dispersing spray to actually see twin rainbows —one for each eye!)

Many people with diabetes need to take insulin to keep their blood glucose in a good range. This can be scary for some people, especially for the first time. The truth is that insulin shots are not painful because the needles are short and thin and the insulin shots are placed into fatty tissue below the skin. This is called a subcutaneous (sub-kyu-TAY-nee-us) injection.
The following instructions are for using a vial and syringe. For instructions on how to use an insulin pen, ask your doctor or diabetes educator.
Before you give the shot, you will need the following:
You will use a syringe and needle to give the shot. The parts are labeled below.
Decide where on your body you will give the shot. Be sure to give the shot in a different place each time. You can stay in the same general area. Try to stay at least 1 inch from the last shot, any scars, and your belly button. Keep a diary to remember where your last shot was given.
Most people find that taking insulin is not as hard as expected. When blood sugars are in control, you feel healthy. This often happens when people with diabetes take insulin.
If you have any questions about these instructions, call your doctor or nurse.
