The IndyCar Series, we've been told three times in three weeks, is not for sale.
Maybe it's time the Hulman-George family reconsiders that position.
No, IndyCar should not be sold to founder Tony George, who cited the conflict of interest in his recent attempt to reacquire the series in his Friday resignation from the Hulman & Co. board of directors. But if there is a buyer out there willing to step in and put an | end to the drama and put the focus instead on growth, stability and IndyCar's strong on-track product, then by all means, open the bidding.

And Chevrolet wrapped up the manufacturer championship in its first year back in the series after a six-year absence?

Bob Sapp has lent his hulking, cartoonish presence to such critically acclaimed films as Big Stan and Elektra, but his next movie, titled Frankenhood, could be his biggest challenge yet. DreadCentral (via Fightlinker) gots da synopsis:
Holy Fucking Shit. It’s like a Tracy Jordan movie, but real. It’s also worth mentioning that the director of Frankenhood is a man named Blaxwell Smart, which I’m convinced is just a pseudonym for Ron Howard.
You have to give Bob credit — the man has never been afraid to humiliate himself for money. But here’s the problem: Who would look at Sapp’s dead body and think "basketball ringer"?

More than 4,000 attend third annual ministry conference in Dallas
Published: October 29, 2009
DALLAS (CNS) -- From strategies for coping with tragedies to reconciling the predicament of being truly Catholic and politically engaged in America, the University of Dallas Ministry Conference offered numerous insights and programs at the Dallas Convention Center Oct. 23-24. More than 4,000 attended the third annual conference to enrich their grasp of ministering to members of the Catholic Church. The conference, co-sponsored by the Diocese of Dallas and the Diocese of Fort Worth, offered numerous topics and workshops pertaining to the central theme, "Walking Together in Faith." Participants included priests and women religious; school administrators and teachers; and catechists and ministers in areas such as youth, music and grief counseling. From the outset, the atmosphere celebrated the strength and harmony possible when ministries support one another. In his Oct. 23 keynote address, Archbishop Donald W. Wuerl of Washington emphasized the importance of recalling Jesus as the eternal word, the Son sent by God to be his voice. He called on conference | participants to rejoice in the church and said Pope Benedict XVI's visit to the U.S. last year served to encourage evangelization, catechesis and education.

Douglas became the third straight U.S. athlete and first African-American to win the all-around title.
Gabby Douglas admitted indulging in post-Olympics fast food to the wrong person: First lady and healthy eating advocate Michelle Obama, who teased the gymnastics champion.
"You're setting me back, Gabby," Obama told Douglas.
"Sorry!" replied the 16-year-old athlete, who confessed to chowing down on a McDonalds' breakfast sandwich after winning two gold medals at the just-ended London Olympics.
But she impressed Mrs. Obama and Leno with a detailed description of how, starting at age 6, she learned to navigate the 4-inch-wide balance beam.
The host wanted to know if the dream of winning matched the reality.
"I think it's very different, and when I mean 'different' it's in a better way," Douglas replied. "I mean, I never thought I would be doing the show with the first lady, or even you, Jay."

"Even you too, Jay!" she said.

Happy St. Patrick’s Day. Hope you enjoy
Go to your bedroom and take off your panties!
Go to your bedroom and take off your panties, Now, Amber!
Seventeen year old Amber Davis could not believe what was about to happen. Her father was going to spank her. Amber had only been spanked twice in her life. The last time was five years ago when she was twelve. She knew she had broken the rules, but a spanking at her age. It was too humiliating to even imagine.
Jim Davis continued to wait in the living room for two reasons. He needed to cool down a bit, he didn’t want to discipline Amber while he was still so angry and, secondly, he wanted Amber to have a few minutes to contemplate her actions and the consequences of those actions.
Jim had only three rules:
1. No drinking outside the home. He permitted Amber an occasional glass of wine.
2. No drug usage, not even marijuana.
3. And most importantly, do not lie | .
Amber had gone for the trifecta last night. When she came in late last, it was evident that she had been drinking and the smell of marijuana permeated her clothing. Jim had confronted her about it and she had lied to him. Jim had done nothing other than tell her to go to bed; letting her know that they would deal with it the following evening after supper. Jim needed a little time to decide just what he needed to do. Finally, he decided that if it had only been the drinking or even the marijuana he | [

You may remember the Bush Administration's pathetic and reluctant listing of the polar bear as an endangered species. You may remember hearing sage-grouse called the polar bear of the west. This is because an ESA listing for sage-grouse could change the management of public lands across the West, much the way as we had hoped listing the polar bear would force consideration of climate impacts of any proposed action. (And it still might. Keep your fingers crossed.)
So, with that bit of background, you can understand why everyone is really excited about the new ruling in southwestern Idaho that reminds the BLM about it's obligation to sage-grouse in land management decisions.
[Judge Winwill] concluded that grazing is a key factor in the decline of species like the sage grouse, pygmy rabbit and slickspot peppergrass, and that the agency must give more consideration in the future to the impact grazing has on those species and their habitat.We certainly hope that is what the ruling will do. We could use some of the "change" Obama promised | .

A question I've already asked in my "proper" journal (there's a link on the left): what's the most excessive piece of merchandising in history? Anyone schooled in the important points of British cultural development will be familiar with artefacts like the Doctor Who underpants of the 1970s, designed in such a way that you could make Tom Baker's face look really, really Jewish by having impure thoughts. But this sort of thing seems almost reasonable, compared to the deluge of merchandising that followed the BBC radio show Bandwagon in the 1930s. Bandwagon was largely a vehicle for the young(ish) Arthur Askey, and the idea that shops began selling Arthur Askey "action-figures" seems remarkable in itself, especially if you grew up in the '80s and can only remember the aged, cancer-riddled version of Arthur Askey who had to have both his legs amputated.

ATLANTA -- Archbishop William E. Lori of Baltimore acknowledged Wednesday that the U.S. bishops' "fortnight for freedom" campaign has come under heavy criticism in the secular media, in the blogosphere and by some Catholics as being a partisan political effort.
But the two-week period is meant to be free of politics and will emphasize church teaching on religious freedom, the chairman of the bishops' Ad Hoc Committee on Religious Freedom said in Atlanta.
"Already we realize that defending religious freedom is not a walk in the park," Lori said during the spring meeting of the U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops, saying politics plays no role in the effort.
"We've seen some reaction to our work that is sometimes hostile, sometimes unfair and inaccurate and sometimes derisive," he said.

The situation in Tokyo is surreal at the moment because on the one hand you have trendy ladies shopping in the capital but on the other hand you have reports about radiation in tap water.

I've tried very hard with technically-polished games | like Eliminate, the N.O.V.A. games and Call of Duty: Black Ops Zombies, but they haven't quite clicked, usually because I'm thinking too much about the controls – virtual analogue sticks in particular.

The history of Camden’s rich alternative theatre scene is to be fully explored thanks to lottery funding.
Unfinished Histories, a project documenting the development of alternative theatre in the borough, has been awarded £58,800 to help research the drama groups that were active in Camden and Lambeth between 1968 and 1988.
Dr Susan Croft, a former curator at the Theatre Museum – now part of the Victoria and Albert Museum archives – is a director of the project and helped set it up.
She said: “The Heritage Lottery funding provides an enormous boost for the organisation, enabling us to build on our work collecting archives and recording oral histories and to involve a new group of volunteers in making the work available to a wider audience, through expanding the website and through staging an exciting exhibition.”
The team now want to recruit volunteers to help go through the mass of the scripts, flyers, reviews and other materials that have been donated or borrowed from other collections, including the Camden Archives.
The end of theatre censorship in 1968, coupled with an atmosphere of social and political upheaval, created a perfect storm for radical | theatre, which pushed the boundaries of what was acceptable to show on stage.
Theatre groups emerged to give a voice to communities which had been sidelined, reaching out to new writers, performers and audiences.
Many groups had their roots in Camden, including women’s theatre companies such as Sadista Sisters and Spare Tyre, which championed feminist | [

   The Gettysburg Address is widely considered to be the greatest speech in American history. In this essay both the style and the substance of the Address are analyzed.
    On November 19, 1863, Lincoln delivered this brief speech at the dedication of the cemetery at Gettysburg, Pennsylvania.  Gettysburg was the site of the most important battle of the Civil War – the turning point of the war, in which the southern army was decisively defeated and the South lost all hope of securing foreign assistance in support | of seccession. Lincoln used the occasion of the dedication not to glorify his role or the role of his military commanders nor did he vilify the rebels. Instead, in the words of the historian Garry Wills, he "remade America" by redefining why we love this country – why it is worth fighting for and dying for.

Objective: The American Indian Service Utilization, Psychiatric Epidemiology, Risk and Protective Factors Project (AI-SUPERPFP) provided estimates of the prevalence of DSM-III-R disorders and utilization of services for help with those disorders in American Indian populations. Completed between 1997 and 1999, the AI-SUPERPFP was designed to allow comparison of findings with the results of the baseline National Comorbidity Survey (NCS), conducted in 1990—1992, which reflected the general United States population. Method: A total of 3,084 tribal members (1,446 in a Southwest tribe and | 1,638 in a Northern Plains tribe) age 15—54 years living on or near their home reservations were interviewed with an adaptation of the University of Michigan Composite International Diagnostic Interview.

West Ham's Israeli midfielder Yossi Benayoun has said he was "embarrassed" by the alleged antisemitic chanting by a section of the club's supporters during their team's Premier League match against Tottenham Hotspur at White Hart Lane on Sunday.
West Ham fans were heard apparently mocking the Holocaust and seen making what appeared to be Nazi salutes during their side's 3-1 defeat. The Metropolitan police has received a complaint about the abuse and on Monday arrested two supporters for the salutes. The two fans have accepted police cautions and one has since been identified by West Ham as a season ticket-holder and banned by the club. "Any other individuals identified can expect a similar swift and robust response," West Ham said.
Benayoun, who is on loan at West Ham from Chelsea, tweeted: "I have a great relationship with the West Ham United supporters, from my first spell at the club and again now I am back on loan here. This why | I was very disappointed to hear some of the songs yesterday and it was embarrassing …

A massive police and military operation is on standby just three weeks before the London Olympics with fighter jets, combat helicopters, thousands of police and the Royal Navy’s largest warship stationed on the Thames in the capital during the games.
That heightened security – and nervousness around a high-profile attack in Britain – has resulted in three separate security incidents in the span of 24 hours as authorities leave nothing to chance.
On Friday, police announced the arrests of seven men on suspicion of terrorism offences after weapons were found in their vehicle when it was pulled over in a routine stop in northern England.
In early morning raids on residences in London on Thursday, anti-terrorism police arrested six people suspected of being involved in a plot against British targets. Security officials said the plot was not linked to the Olympics.
In the second incident, which proved to be a false alarm, dramatic TV scenes showed armed | police investigating bus passengers one-by-one in an early morning incident that blocked traffic in both directions on a major British highway 187 kilometres north of London. British ministry of defence personnel provided police support. The incident was later described as not being terror-related.
The current security budget estimate of $870-million has already been doubled and is expected to climb significantly by the time the Olympics and Paralympics are finished. The 2010 Vancouver Olympics security ballooned to $900-million.

In 1967, amidst the Summer of Love and psychedelia, The Kinks bravely bucked the trend by releasing a beautiful album of thoughtful and immaculately crafted pop music. Their reward for this extraordinary album was almost complete apathy both in England and the United States (where they were banned anyway due to draconian union regulations.) Over time, the album was recognized as one of The Kinks finest, and this deluxe re-issue includes both the mono and stereo mixes of the album as well as period singles and BBC Sessions. It’s quite a well done package, the remastered music sounds excellent with the band exploring everything from a Cockney near sea-shanty “Hairy Rag” to the faux music hall strut “Tin Soldier Man.” Bookending the original album were two of the band’s finest songs, the rocking and propulsive “David Watts,” and the almost unbelievably beautiful ballad “Waterloo Sunset” whos elegiac and nostalgic glow makes it one of the bast songs in pop music history, IMHO.

Back in August, I wrote the following about girl-group performances for the Korean military:
With 300-350,000 new conscripts annually, one of the longest conscription periods in the world, and a grisly — but improving — record of bullying and abysmal living conditions, keeping the troops entertained can safely be assumed to have long been a big concern of the South Korean military | .

One of the most arduous tasks I’ve had to deal with recently, after childbirth, was getting back into denim. If you’re a black leggings kind of girl like I am, you’ll know what I mean. For me, a pair of jeans is the ultimate litmus test. We all have that “one” pair of jeans that we compare ourselves and all others to. And my one had seen better days.
I set out to decipher the daunting world of denim and to find the perfect pair of jeans. Although I knew that I would not find a more honest friend, I was armed with the newly found courage that came from reaching my pre-pregnancy weight.
After trying on over 100 pairs of jeans and learning to distinguish between the super skinny, not so skinny, boyfriend, boot leg, straight leg, cigarette leg, flare, and slouchy (and that’s not even considering the wash or the inconsistent sizing), I believe I deserve an honorary Ph.D. in Denimology.

A highlight of the Fifth Meeting of the Conference of the Parties to the Convention on Biological Diversity (COP 5) was the signing of the Cartagena Protocol on Biosafety by 64 governments plus the European Community. In addition, close to 50 ministers participated in the high-level segment.

"At the same time, without effective safeguards, there is a risk that genetically modified organisms could enter the environment and upset the natural ecological balance.

The NYPD’s blanket surveillance of Muslim communities has chilled the exercise of constitutional rights and has strained community ties, placing an entire religious community under siege by the police, according to a groundbreaking reportauthored by members of the Muslim American Civil Liberties Coalition, Creating Law Enforcement Accountability and Responsibility and the Asian American Legal Defense and Education Fund.
The report, the most comprehensive accounting yet of how the NYPD’s practices are harming the Muslim community, is based on original interviews with 57 New York City Muslims. The authors state that the NYPD’s spying program targeting Muslim Americans creates “a pervasive climate of fear and suspicion, encroaching upon every aspect of individual and community life.” Additionally, the surveillance program has “chilled constitutionally protected rights—curtailing religious practice, censoring speech and stunting political organizing” and has also “severed the trust that should exist between the police department and the communities it is charged with protecting.”

When the Minnesota Timberwolves faced reality, gritted their teeth and made the hard decision to trade away their franchise player in the summer of 2007, they knew the risk involved: It might take decades, certainly a generation or two in NBA terms, to again land a talent as special as Kevin Garnett.
Considering all Garnett meant to the Wolves on the court and off during his 12 seasons in the Upper Midwest -- their only league MVP, the holder of so many club records, the uncommon denominator in their eight playoff appearances and nine.500-or-better seasons (out of 23) -- "maybe never" also was a possibility.
It took all of 11 months. Three hundred-and-thirty one days, to be exact, from the | time former Wolves vice president Kevin McHale traded Garnett to the night he acquired the player who would in time replace -- and, some will argue, eclipse -- him.
McHale didn't just fast-track his way to a superstar transplant via free agency. He scouted, then procured a tantalizing rookie who had been neglected by several needy teams. McHale gambled on a June night in 2008 the way he had 13 years earlier, beguiled by the vein of raw talent he saw, at a position he knew so well.
He grabbed another power forward. | [

Rough idle, engine light indicates cylinder 4 misfire. Nissan told me it was the catalytic converter under recall and replaced it. that did not fix the problem. took it back. Nissan told me i needed a new cam shaft sensor, that did not fix the problem. Nissan told me it must be the other sensor that needs to be replaced. that did not fix the problem. Changed the spark plugs and coils. that did not fix the problem. changed the belts and tensioner and hoses but that did not fix the problem. Another mechanic told me i needed to replace the alternator. that did not fix the problem. Any one want to share some insight here or am I just getting | screwed?

Thanks everyone who has expressed concern about my brother. So far there's been no diagnosis or improvement in his total retrograde amnesia. He still has his genius IQ and quick wit, but everyone is a complete stranger to him. Nobody knows what we can do, all I could think of was to bring him some gluten-free brownies yesterday, since the hospital selection of gluten-free food is atrocious. He liked the brownies.
Then we went to Biaggi's with my parents, and they got some take out dinner for him and his wife. That's a great Italian restaurant with a Gluten Free menu. It was a nice break in the day, and so refreshing to be able to order pasta and other food without worrying about getting sick from it.
Today is hard because I've gotten past my wonder and curiousity about it...it's not something you'd expect to happen to anybody you know. Now I'm just very sad and worried about it. | It's been 4 days now with no real progress.
He and I weren't really close, for no real reason, there just was a lot of space there, a big difference in age and chaos tolerance, I guess you could say. He's more outgoing and has more chaos tolerance than I do | [

Northern Prairie Wildlife Research Center
The little-wing pearly mussel faces water quality degradation resulting from industrial and sewage effluents and the runoff of silt and other water pollutants from poorly designed construction, development, mining, agricultural, and forestry activities. Further, the spread of the exotic zebra mussel (Dreissena polymorpha) represents a potential threat to the survival of this species. Zebra mussels outcompete native mussel fauna, and infestations in the water column can physically disrupt normal breeding and feeding behavior.
Although little measurable progress has been made in establishing new mussel populations or in stabilizing existing populations, substantial recovery efforts for all the State's federally listed mussels are under way. Research is continuing on maintaining captive mussel populations, mussel cryopreservation, and potential impacts of the exotic zebra mussel on native mussels.
Recovery of the littlewing pearly mussel will require additional research to develop new propagation techniques, reintroduction | into unoccupied historical habitat, and determination of the factors that are causing declines in the wild. Also, technology is needed for cryopreservation of freshwater mussel genetic material.
In FY 1992, the North Carolina Wildlife Resources Commission was provided $5,000 to conduct surveys and monitor the little-wing pearly mussel, as well as the State's other federally listed mussels.

“What two businesses have traditionally been recession-proof since time immemorial?” Tony Soprano once asked, to which lieutenant Silvio Dante deadpanned, “Certain aspects of show business and our thing.” With this limited-edition 33-disc doorstop, priced at a hefty $399 and arriving just 17 months after David Chase’s lionized gangster saga quick-cut to black, HBO is surely hoping that “Sopranos” merchandising is another of those evergreen commercial ventures.The discs — along with an episode guide, reprints of press plaudits and cast info — are sleeved inside a chunky, wedding album-like binder. That, in turn, is encased in a flannel sleeve that fits snugly inside an auster black linen box. Just opening the package feels like the enacting of a dark sacramental ritual — sumptuous and vaguely transgressive. With “The Sopranos” being probably the most adored and deconstructed show in television history, with its 86 installments having been issued on season-specific DVD sets, and with devotees (the most likely customers for this set) already knowing the skein backward and forward, the episodes pretty much speak for themselves. And so, as usual with | such digital retrospectives, it’s all about the extras, which are fairly generous. Those include all three of the show’s soundtrack releases, here condensed on two CDs; a grab bag of deleted scenes stretching back to season one; and “Sopranos” parodies as executed by “Saturday Night Live,” “MadTV” and, in what amounts to the ultimate zeitgeist imprimatur, “The Simpsons.” More interesting are a two-part interview with creator David Chase by outspoken fan Alec Baldwin; two “Suppers With The Sopranos,” freewheeling gabfests featuring | [

One of our Observers for Russia alerted us to the closure of one of the country's oldest Internet service providers (ISPs), and the various rumours that have sprung up following the police intervention. Censorship of political opinion or censorship of child pornography?

Record year at movie theaters: $10.8 billion
A record 11 blockbusters did $200 million or more in domestic ticket sales
U.S. moviegoers bought a record $10.8 billion in movie tickets this year, with the number of tickets sold rising for the first time in three years.
The ticket sales increase to 1.36 billion is particularly impressive, said Paul Dergarabedian, box office analyst for Hollywood.com.

PHILADELPHIA (CBS) – Even if your radio is always set to KYW Newsradio 1060, you couldn’t escape a certain pop song over the past few months. Billboard is making it official, now — naming it the “song of the summer.”
Gotye came close with ‘Somebody That I Used to Know.’
Maroon 5 was the runner up with ‘Payphone.’
But no one could hang up on Carly Rae Jepsen and her catchy tune.

It became part of the conversation.

He explained (over | Skype) the hallmarks of a good summer song: “Up-tempo helps, happy helps, breezy helps.”

Fresh peas should not really be available year-round at the grocery store, as they don’t store well.
