The game comes with four buzzer controllers that make it really easy to buzz in and to select your answers. Plus, this is the perfect type of game to make use of downloadable content; I look forward to seeing some expansions for download. They haven't been announced yet, but it's pretty much a given.

Bradley County Churches Get Extra Protection Due To Thefts

Sheriff Tim Gobble has placed rural Bradley County churches on "extra patrol" after recent thefts of outside heating/air conditioning units in the area.

The order means patrol deputies will make regular checks of those located in the patrol zone they are covering.

In recent weeks there have been thefts from at least six churches in Bradley and surrounding counties. Inside the units the thieves are able to extract copper tubing they can sell as scrap metal. Each theft brings a loss of at least $1,000, and in some cases the value of the unit is in the thousands of dollars.

Sheriff Gobble is asking the public to be on the lookout for suspicious activity and to not hesitate to call 9-1-1 if you see something out of the ordinary, especially on days and at times when services are not held.

Colorado can lead the way on warming

Ritter could bomb Colorado back to the stone age and completely and totally destroy our economy by cutting the state's CO2 footprint to 0 and have zero effect on the global climate.2. Coal is our largest energy resource. Cheap reliable energy is the key to economic power and job creation. One of the poor developing counties that you lament is China. China is driving up the global price of coal because they are using so much coal that they must import. So the US will get less competitive and China more competitive with zero effect on Global Warming.3. US hydro power plants over 30MW are not considered renewable and cannot claim CO2 credits. China and other countries around the world are able to sell CO2 offset credits from their large hydropower plants. Again China will be economically enriched by large scale hydro development when the USA is afforded no such opportunity.

Update: Library Has 10 Copies of "Water for Elephants"

The Otis and I are celebrating our 7th anniversary (and my 28th birthday) with our 2nd annual Karaoke Idol competition. Last year's was a blast. And I was truly honored that I wasn't one of the Bottom Three. (Though I thought I was deserving). My song is "Fancy." I've Athol-fied the lyrics, which should help me get in the judges good graces. Because I can tell you right now that my vocal stylings definitely won't help me win that shiny 1st place trophy. (Yes, folks, we are doing trophies this year). And I'm thinking of dressing the part. Maybe some Wranglers and a Stetson? -- Mommy Dearest/BrodH20.

Mommy Dearest's Quandry: We have an awesome panel of judges: The Paula-licious Leenda the Ball, Megs Cowell and newbie Orange TV. Based on last year's judging, I haven't decided whether it's better to perform early when the judges are still stone-cold sober, or if it's better to wait until they've got that warm and fuzzy feeling in their veins.

Chinese cars attractive at Cairo Int'l Motor Show

Shining shape, fine quality, good price and satisfactory performance of Chinese cars attracted many visitors at the 15th Cairo International Motor Show yesterday, the first day open to the public.

At the entrance of Hall 4 of the Motor show held at the Cairo International Convention & Exhibition Center, a large brand of "Geely" and its auto model picture drew the attention of the visitors.

"We trust Geely, not only its price but also the quality and performance, that's why we chose to be an Egyptian agent of the car," Ali El Dosoky, sales manager of an Egyptian Motors company, told Xinhua.

Dosoky said although his company has recently begun marketing the Geely cars, which entered the Egyptian market three years ago,he has confidence on the prospect of Geely cars' sale.

Also on display is another model of Chinese car with the brand of UFO and the Egyptian name "Grand XPlosion."

After test-driving inside a "Grand XPlosion", Zena, a Lebanese lady who is working at an accounting company in Cairo, told Xinhua that she has been thinking of buying a Chinese car.
