Joey Kissimmee is about to release his first product ever. Joey's product is called "Mass Marketing Mayhem" and it's designed to create just that for your business, but will Joey succeed in this competitive market? Did Joey make the wrong decision to move from biz opportunities to product creation?
All eyes are on Joey over the next few days leading up to the launch of his new product Mass Marketing Mayhem. Why? Because others had tried to stop Joey launching it and big offers were being made to 'buy' the rights for Joey's new program. They saw the potential and how successful it will be. But after many meetings, Joey turned them all down after realizing what he had created. So Joey now takes the leap of faith and enters the product game but, will he succeed?
Triple MMM (mass marketing mayhem) Also covers all aspects of marketing. From driving traffic to list building to even establishing and maintaining a good solid, strong and long lasting relationship with your customers (the list).
"It's tough out there now, the internet marketing game has changed and you need to focus on long term solutions to marketing your business online or you don't stand a chance" Joey Kissimmee said. "Online marketing can be a costly game and if you don't have free long term strategies for your business forget it!" Joey continues. "That's why most people only stick around for 4-5 months." Joey states.
There is information overload when it comes to online marketing and people, especially 'newbies' are getting smacked out there, money is being lost and it can be a real struggle. So why did Joey turn his hand to creating his first product which includes 30 tutorials all designed to show how to market without spending a dime.
Joey himself is someone who has taken his love of technology, and the Internet, and turned it into a profitable business. Joey Kissimmee realized that all of the time he spent on the Internet could be put to good use, and realized that others could do the same.
Joey Kissimmee, 32, didn't even have his first computer until the year 2000. Once he received his computer, and was hooked up to the Internet, he began to think of all of the different possibilities that the world wide web had to offer. Many people realized that there was money to be made on the Internet, and Joey Kissimmee was right in line.
The mass marketing mayhem is a system that Joey Kissimmee created that allowed Joey to mass market on the internet in the same manner that all the top gurus do. The only difference is, that the top gurus pay for all their traffic, and Joey Kissimmee's methods are all done without ever paying for any advertising whatsoever.
Joey Kissimmee's Mass Marketing Mayhem methods have all ready changed many of his personal student's lives. And now that Joey is releasing (MMM) to the public, there's no doubt many more lives will be changed. This new course which also includes 30 videos and hours of tactical, proven, and tested free marketing methods which show you, step by step, the online marketing community how to generate hundreds of thousands of dollars in only a few short months.
My only criticism of the product and its launch is the cost. Joey has missed the mark here in my opinion. The ridiculously low price for his intellectual property is under priced. But let's wait and see.

Children Anger Control
By Vijai P. Sharma,
All of us exhibit some "signs" just as we begin to get angry. Identify the anger signs in your child. For example, you may detect a certain "look in the eye," the tone of voice or the tightness in the body. Help your child to observe these signs right at the onset of anger.
Once children can identify the early signs of their anger, they can also learn to diffuse it by such methods as walking away or taking full and vigorous breaths.
Train your child to respond to your "signal" like your hand motion to stay calm. Give that signal as soon as your child starts "stewing" about something.
If your child is too young for such self-control techniques, use distraction as soon as you notice the child exhibiting an anger sign. A distraction, in order to be effective, has to be of interest to the child. For example suggest to your child, "Let's ride a bike" or, "Let's play ball."
Teach your children to talk about how they feel. Give them a language to express their feelings. For example, ask them how they feel. If they are too angry to talk or don't have the vocabulary to express their feelings, ask about the feelings relevant to the specific situation. Examples: "Do you feel embarrassed?" "Humiliated?" "Let down?" or, "Is your pride hurt?"

Dancing with the Stars - Week
Dancing with the Stars is more than halfway over with only seven couples remaining, and that numbers gets a lot smaller next week with yet another double elimination.
Week 7 will give the finalists a bit of freedom, as each couple can choose any dance form on the season so far they haven't done. Combine with team dancing, week 7 of Dancing with the Stars will certainly separate the leaders from the followers as we narrow the field down to the final five.

WANdisco - latest news
WANdisco Presents New Initiatives for the Subversion Open Source Project
(1888PressRelease) - San Ramon, CA - WANdisco, a leading provider of infrastructure software for replication, scalability & high availability, today will present 2 new initiatives for the Subversion open source project at SubConf 2009. These new efforts, sponsored by WANdisco, will result in new features, SubversionJ and Obliterate, which will be contributed to the Subversion open source project under the same Apache open source license currently used by the project.
The first initiative, SubversionJ, or SVNJ, will provide a rich server-side JAVA API that will leverage Subversion’s established code base written in the C programming language. This will allow the Subversion community to reach out to millions of JAVA developers and enable the same expansion and enrichment of Subversion functionality on the server-side that has been seen on the client-side due to the rich set of APIs for JAVA, Python and Perl that are available.
SubversionJ’s goals are to:
• Reach out to millions of JAVA developers who may become contributors.
• Reuse the existing Subversion code base wherever possible.
• Provide a server-side SVN/DAV implementation that will deploy in any standard J2EE container.
• Provide a simple, pluggable API for custom authentication and authorization implementations.
• Provide an API for a wide range of database back ends to offer deployment options beyond FSFS.
The second initiative is the development of the new Obliterate feature designed to address requirements to cleanly remove obsolete files and other data from Subversion repositories. Subversion's design has always been based on the concept that recorded history will never change and such a feature has never been included. Users and administrators have had to rely on workarounds that involve dump, filter and reload steps that can be error prone and result in unintended data loss.
Now that Subversion has experienced wide adoption by large corporate development organizations that have used similar features with other version control systems, Obliterate is becoming a hard requirement. In order to provide this new feature and at the same time respect the principles underlying Subversion’s design, Obliterate will include comprehensive audit and recovery capabilities to ensure that history is always available.
“These new initiatives, along with the recently announced addition of core Subversion developers to WANdisco’s team, further demonstrates our commitment to the Subversion project,” said David Richards, President and CEO of WANdisco. “We have taken feedback from some of our larger Subversion implementations, that run into tens-of-thousands of users, and we discovered that these enhancements were absolutely essential.”
About WANdisco
WANdisco is a leading provider of distributed software development solutions. By using WANdisco's unique replication technology, software development can now occur anywhere without any constraints. Fortune Global 1000 companies such as AT&T, Honda, NTT and Motorola rely on WANdisco's suite of source code management solutions.
About Subversion
Subversion (SVN) is a version control system initiated in 2000. It is used to maintain current and historical versions of files such as source code, web pages, and documentation. Its goal is to be a mostly-compatible successor to the widely used Concurrent Versions System (CVS). In a 2007 report by Forrester Research, Subversion was recognized as the sole leader in the Standalone Software Configuration Management (SCM) category and a strong performer in the Software Configuration and Change Management (SCCM) category.
Subversion is released under the Apache License, making it free software.

The Wooden Window Workshop London launch new Sash window restoration website
(1888PressRelease) - The Launch of West London based Sash window Restoration Company, The Wooden Window Workshop is finally here, and it’s about time too! The company already has a huge following in west London and has been trading since 1985 with its famous workshop in Chiswick, the decision to create a website can only mean good things for the rest of London.
The intention to launch the website with a very traditional low tech look and feel is in direct retaliation to most other sash window companies in London who all seem to have websites that can often be quite intimidating and expensive looking to visitors.
The website follows on with the Wooden window workshops traditional old fashioned business values of sash window restoration, not full replacement.
With a huge amount of information about the benefits of restoring period windows as opposed to replacement and the ecological advantages of sash window restoration, visitors will no doubt find the website to be a refreshing change to the hard sell of other Sash window websites currently targeting London.
Talking about the website, Robert Wood, Director of The Wooden Window Workshop commented: ‘We are delighted with the new website. It represents our specialist approach to Sash Window restoration in London and also reflects our historic approach since 1985 to restore what many believe to be part of our architectural heritage. For many years now we have seen many trends come and go, with the eighties we saw the Upvc window arrive, and then the nineties it was all the rage to replace sash window with cheap soft wood versions. Now, many of these soft wood windows are falling apart and with the Upvc windows unserviceable, it is fast becoming the trend to restore sash windows which is both far more cost effective than replacement but also better for the environment too!
A Santa for These Economic Times: New book, "The Santa Story Revisited," Inspires Parents to Tell an "Expanded" Santa Story
(1888PressRelease) - "The Santa Story Revisited: How to Give Your Children a Santa They Will Never Outgrow" offers an expanded Santa, with all of the magic and none of the pretense. In the book, which is both memoir and how-to, author Arita Trahan presents Santa as a game—a timeless game that everyone is already playing.
Arita’s expanded Santa is also the hero of anonymous giving. This is a Santa we can emulate as well as enjoy. Children are invited to play both roles—giving secretly as Santa as well receiving from Santa. This perspective segues the child into appreciating both sides of the Santa experience and eliminates any expiration date on their enjoyment.
This is a Santa experience that works for everyone. Parents continue being anonymous givers; children learn to play Santa by secretly giving gifts and acts of kindness to family and community—adding to the gifting concept of the season. Generosity becomes more of a game than an obligation as children experience the joy that’s inherent in giving without conditions.
Arita says, “I suspect that the reason parents get so invested in playing Santa is that giving anonymously (without getting any credit) is the closest demonstration we have to unconditional love. It is deeply satisfying and lots of fun. We want our children to keep ‘believing’ so we can keep playing. The good news is that by simply including our children in the game, it never has to end.”
A companion song, "I'm Being Santa" celebrates the pay-it-forward nature of anonymous giving that Trahan presents in her book. A music video of the song is on YouTube at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mbh45srDylc.

Handling Meth Addiction In Michigan
Narconon delivers methamphetamine talk to educate local community.
Red Ribbon Week is the oldest and largest drug prevention campaign in the country, and many drug education groups are gathering with schools, communities and churches to help promote the message of a drug-free life in hopes to stop drug abuse before it starts. Narconon Freedom Center, a residential drug and alcohol rehabilitation program located in Albion, Michigan, has been at the forefront of the Red Ribbon Week activities in the state.
This week Narconon Freedom Center visited a neighborhood watch meeting to educate the local community about the dangers of methamphetamine abuse and the manufacturing of the drug. Supervisor Megan Werner-Brennan spoke about meth labs in the local community and signs to look for regarding meth abuse and how to stop it.
"Many people are not sure of what to look for [in regards to methamphetamine manufacturing] besides the 'over the counter' medications that have been pulled from shelves,” she explains.”But what people use to make meth are items like cooking fuel, rubbing alcohol in large amounts etc and this was all a new thought to most who have not had experience with the drug."
According to the Substances Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration Office of Applied Studies(http://www.oas.samhsa.gov/statesIndex.htm#2k4) more than 4% of persons aged 12 or older in the state of Michigan reported using meth one or more times during their life. In addition, 1% of young adults aged 18-25 reported past year methamphetamine use and an average of 500 treatment admissions per year as a result of meth abuse.
Methamphetamine is a central nervous system stimulant that can be manufactured from common household chemicals in clandestine laboratories. Methamphetamine can be ingested by swallowing, inhaling, injecting, or smoking. The typical high lasts 12 hours or longer and some users will stay high for days. Side effects from use include irritability, nervousness, insomnia, nausea, depression and brain damage.
"In the community of Battle Creek Michigan alone, there have been three meth labs found over the past month,” says Werner-Brennan. “These are dangerous and can do damage to those innocent by-standers, especially the children that are in these homes.”

An R & B Angel We’ve Been Waiting For; The New Album Release "3'O Clock Saturday" by Jennifer Lang
New York, NY (1888PressRelease) - When I first held Jennifer Lang’s 3 O’Clock Saturday in my hands I was taken aback by the cover. What a beautiful smile Jennifer has. I assumed that this CD was going to go the route of the usual R & B CD, but I could not have been so wrong and I was so glad of that. This is one fantastic R & B CD!
Pop 3 O’Clock Saturday into the nearest CD player and be prepared to be wowed by Jennifer Lang’s voice. To describe her voice probably wouldn’t be doing it proper justice, but her sound is like a finely aged wine about to be uncorked and shared with a few friends, something to be enjoyed and savored.
3 O’Clock Saturday is Jennifer’s second album a follow up to her 2008 debut Just A Lang Thang. Her songs are centered around a love theme, and stem from Lang’s desire for people to know how important love really is. She does it beautifully with the new album. Her voice conveys sensuality, romance and the heartache of a breakup, which is something that we haven’t seen since Toni Braxton hit the scene. Yes, her voice is that big!
The songs are soulful, sometimes dealing with loss (Keep Your Head Up and Don’t Think On It), new love (Take Me There), and even more spiritual things (I Don‘t Know When It‘s Coming), but no matter what the song, Jennifer keeps most of the tracks upbeat and a little bit funky. That’s what sets this album apart from the rest. It is a perfect mixture of up and down beats. It’s not all funky with one token ballad tossed in for good measure. The tracks have a good flow and nothing seems out of place or unexpected.
If asked to pick a favorite, I’d be hard pressed to select just one. Falling in Love is such a bittersweet tune. Betcha Thought puts the funk back into funky. If you have a groove thang to shake, you’ll be shaking it to this song. Fairy Tales is delivered in such a way that the song delivers a one two punch to the listener. There’s just something about the vocal and haunting Middle Eastern sounding melody that gives this song that something special. Perhaps it’s because it really lets you see what a wonderful range Jennifer has. She hits the low note with precision and then soars into the clouds with the next.

Beautiful Britney - Britney Spears: Behind the Pop Star's New Tour, Success
Yahoo! Music - By BRYAN ALEXANDER / LOS ANGELES
What was the craziest thing to happen to Britney Spears last week?
She went to Target. Twice. She bought a CD. That was it. Sounds pretty boring for an international pop icon, but it's a great relief to those working to keep Britney Inc. in business.
For much of 2007 and 2008, Spears was an unhinged superstar unraveling daily in front of a captivated global audience and voracious media scrum. There were hours of aimless driving, underwear-free outings with Paris Hilton, a bizarre romance with a paparazzo, an involuntary psychiatric hold. But after more than a year of belching putrid black smoke, the Britney machine is humming along quite nicely, thank you, and these days it's about the music, not the antics. Did she really shave her head or was that just a bad dream?
"For me, the silence is golden," a Spears insider tells TIME. The pop star's latest single, "3," hit airwaves on Sept. 29 to tremendous buzz (Rolling Stone called it a "surefire dance-floor stomper"), and will be part of her upcoming box set The Singles Collection, due out Nov. 24, which commemorates her 10 years in the record industry. Other milestones have passed quietly. Spears just completed the European and U.S. legs of a grueling concert tour with a performance in Las Vegas, the same spot where two years ago she crashed and burned at the MTV Video Music Awards. After a brief rest, she will tour Australia in November.

PopThatZit.com to Appear on the Tyra Banks Show
(1888PressRelease) - His moment on the show will be part of the episode that's scheduled to air on Wednesday, October 14th, in a pre-taped segment about gross people in America.
"It was an experience, to say the least," says owner Chris Azzari. "I was even approached by a few people who were familiar with the site, and they loved that I was on the show!" Asked to appear as a zit-popping expert, he chatted with Tyra who then played clips for the grossed out audience from some of the over 1000 videos that are now available on the website. "The reactions from the crowd were spectacular," Chris says. "I knew I'd done my job well."
PopThatZit.com features videos in 47 different categories on topics like abscesses, hematomas, MRSA, boils and, of course, zits of every variety on various parts of the body. While videos are the core part of the site, there's also an active community of people interested in zit-popping and other fleshy anomalies.
For those who can't understand the enthusiasm for zits and zit popping, there's a helpful "Zit Manifesto" at the website that helps to explain the zit fascination philosophy, by outlining the differences between casual zit poppers and obsessed zit poppers, as well as patient, enthusiastic and secret zip poppers. The Manifesto also attempts to explain the lure of the pop to the uninitiated.

Tearful Mike Tyson to Oprah: 'I'm Tired of Failing'
(Yahoo! TV Blog) In an emotional interview with Oprah Winfrey, Mike Tyson claimed to be a new man - one focused on his family. The former heavyweight boxing champion feared that the erratic behavior that has dominated his life for two decades would kill him within two years if he returned to it.
Tyson opened up about most of his headline-grabbing actions over the years, including his years in prison, his tempestuous eight-month marriage to Robin Givens, his long addiction to drugs, the $400 million fortune he squandered, the 1997 comeback match in which he bit Evander Holyfield's ear, and -- for the first time -- the death of his 4-year-old daughter earlier this year.
The key development in Tyson's life stems from what seems to be a newfound self-awareness following his participation in the movie "Tyson," a documentary about his life filmed as he went through rehab two years ago. "If I'm not conscious of who I am, I'm just going to let myself run [wild], and I'm going to destroy my beautiful family, and I'm going to destroy myself, and I don't want to go down that road any more," he said.

Different classes of travelers tend to poke fun at the others, but the truth is that there are various valid reasons to travel, and all of them bring great benefits to the traveler.
Perhaps the most common form of travel is escapism. People from all walks of life get exhausted with their work and the stresses of daily life, and going on a vacation helps them to forget those problems and stresses for a while and recuperate, and return to work refreshed. Sure, you could relax at home and reduce your stress a little, but changing your environment completely helps you to remove yourself completely from your stresses and daily routine. That makes for a much more effective stress release. This type of traveler tends to visit resort areas like Cancun, Mexico; Bali, Indonesia; Phuket, Thailand; the Caribbean Islands, etc. The tropical weather of such destinations makes for a comfortable escape at any type of year.
Another type of traveler is the traveler with an interest in culture and history. Somebody who has a fascination with Ancient Egypt can visit Egypt and walk in the same places that the Pharoahs walked, bringing their imaginations to life. People who love the Bible can visit Israel and walk where King David or Jesus walked. People with an interest in Buddhism can visit India to discover the roots of Buddhism in real life. They can also have a chance to experience the cultures that they have read so much about or seen on television. This type of traveler can gain deep insight into our world, its various countries, and how they function and interact.

Paul Jorgensen - Traveling is a fantastic experience and something that most people look forward to at some point in their lives. For many of those people traveling is an escape from the grind of daily life, but for other people travel is way to grow as a person and broaden their horizons.

Los Angeles Entrepreneur Courtney "The Genius" Foley Takes Celebrity Collectibles To A New Level as she sells her Celebrity Brother's Body
In tough economic times when the going gets tough, the tough GET CREATIVE. Los Angeles entrepreneur Courtney "The Genius" Foley has taken the ARTS to a new level with her new Bodies of Art sculpture project which is now open to the public at 26013 Bates Pl. Stevenson Ranch CA.
Los Angeles-Long Beach, CA (1888PressRelease) - Foley will put the cherry on the top of the Bodies of Art project in this Saturday, October 10, 2009 at 10:30 AM when she cast's the final sculpture in the series, the "Venus de Jeremy." The headless, armless, legless torso of her celebrity brother(Jeremy Foley star of such movies as Dante's Peak, Soccer Dog, Action News at 5 and Caitlin's Way). The Bodies of Art collection is based on an interesting process in which the artist, Courtney "The Genius" Foley casts select body parts of celebrities in plaster. Sculpture: From the Bodies of Art project, created by Courtney "The Genius" Foley: Bodies of Art Sculptures are the only celebrity collectable where art aficionados can actually own single edition original cast pieces of the celebrity.
Available on eBay at Like Michael Jackson's Neverland/Elvis' Graceland, Item Id:270464458821. Starting price:$1,250,000.00. An advancement that takes celebrity collectibility to a new level never before attempted and creates a futures market in celebrity collectibles! It is inherently unfair that a celebrity should have to die in order to access their postmortem value. The Bodies of Art Project, recognizing mortality, proposes to access celebrity collectability in the here and now through creating body sculptures, plastination, eternal advertising and cryonic preservation combined with cloning to make and take celebrities generational!
But the personalized sculptures aren't just for celebrities. Foley says you or I can have a personalized piece created. Foley laughs, "There isn't a waiting list yet, but we'd love to make it happen for anybody who likes the idea. We've been running casting call ads in Variety and Hollywood reporter to get new clients, especially any "A" list celebrities. Sadly, our project has come too late for Michael Jackson. Unfortunately he died before we could cast his body for private collections, charitable donations or immortality. If Michael had only had access to his after life market value, perhaps he'd even be alive today."
Twenty five percent of the Bodies of Art Project profits as sold through eBay:Jeremobilia, will go to the Disabled American Veterans, a non-profit foundation that helps those who have sacrificed so much for us. The Bodies of Art Project represents a lifetime's worth of "Jeremobilia," collectable pieces of Jeremy Foley. Jeremy Foley is a working, middle class actor with a variety of projects under his belt that nonetheless lend credence to his ability. The collection was enabled by Jeremy's mother Rocio, who from birth, knew that her son was destined for great things and so saved everything from diapers to his first BMW keys.
And for the kids, Courtney and Jeremy have created a Board game. Bodopoly: A unique tie in product that mirrors and simulates the Bodies of Art premise that the ultimate collector would be the individual or corporate entity that would possess the entire celebrity body as a complete collection. A board game where the objective is to be the first person to collect an entire body and win! Foley says, "This allows those of lesser financial means to share in the fun and thrill of the whole Bodies of Art excitement. Even if you can't afford high end, high concept art, you can still pretend like you can! It's a terrific learning tool for children to teach the concept of celebrity capitalism!"
Go to youtube and type in Bodopoly to see the product!
Courtney says, "While the intent of the project is in fun. The whole idea is to take the celebrity collectable concept to the extreme. What we have put together is an art project that takes the concept of celebrity collectability to an absurd length. We operate off of what we call the Mylie Cyrus corollary which postulates that celebrity is not a function of talent or merit, but of marketing. We are challenging people to reassess how they are manipulated by advertising."
Foley concludes: "This is Economic Recovery through creative American Entrepreneurial effort at its highest level! This is not a government program! It is the collective effort of an amazing creative family determined to vitalize the economy with controversial, cutting edge concepts.
Up Next, The Bodies of Art Film. The screenplay is a comedy that mirrors the actual events created by the Bodies of Art and imagines their potential outcome with hilarious and unexpected results. Foley Says. "I guess in it's overall concept, we are pre-creating a marketing campaign for a movie we have yet to make, by creating the reality upon which it is based. A very Hanna Montana concept done on a shoestring budget and using reality as it's backdrop as opposed to fantasy while utilizing and initiating all the consumable marketing tie-ins in advance just the same as a large corporation would do."
Courtney says: "In the Bodies of Art movie, we are creating the extreme collectable celebrity reality upon which it is based. As the main character under dire financial distress sells her body over the internet in order to gain publicity and money for her own projects, everything she owns then becomes collectable. Of course, the enormous sums of money she gains in true Faustian fashion prove to be illusory as in her haste to gain money at any price she essentially loses the only thing she has left, her body and to a certain extent her soul. Suddenly her closest friends become tainted by her and their own greed as they rush to capitalize on her newly inflated value. The devil in the details of course is then the uber capitalist billionaire pornographer who unseen has been deftly manipulating the entire situation to his advantage. (Sound familiar?). He is however in a rush to complete his grab for immortality by hastening his latest "artistic" acquisition into his collection."
Fortunately, our main character is saved at the last moment by her now repentant suitor who realizes that of course, he loves her beyond her monetary value. Certainly, the cryonics aspect of the Bodies of Art Project then makes sense as we see our main character die of old age, only to be resurrected again in youth. Sadly, we only did it to provide for a sequel.

RacersReunion Memory Lane Hall of Fame "Recognizing The Grass Roots of Auto Racing" Announces Induction Schedule and Primary Sponsorship
Charlotte-Gastonia-Rock Hill, NC-SC (1888PressRelease) - RacersReunion Memory Lane Hall of Fame will induct fifteen in its inaugural class on October 10, 2009. This new hall of fame is located inside the fabulous antique race car and memorabilia exhibit that is Memory Lane Museum on Highway 150 in Mooresville, NC. The first class of ten living and five posthumous inductees, all participants in the early years of auto racing, made their impact on the sport before the days of multi-million dollar sponsors, luxurious motor coaches, personal airplanes, and teams the size of factories.
The ten living and five posthumous inductees are: Paul Goldsmith, Buddy Arrington, Dink Widenhouse, Sam Ard, Marvin Panch, Dave Marcis, Paul Lewis, Neil Castles, Jake Elder, James Hylton, Wendell Scott, Herman Beam, G.C. Spencer, Elmo Langley, and Gene Glover. All living inductees will be in attendance except for Sam Ard, Jake Elder, and James Hylton. Ard and Elder are in poor health and unable to attend, but the seventy-five-year-old Hylton’s absence is due to his refusal to yield to age as he continues his racing career and will be qualifying for the American 200 ARCA Championship event at Rockingham Speedway.
In a time when economic pressures have caused many sponsors to cut back on racing related support, Safety Solutions of Mooresville, NC, recognizes the importance of this grass roots effort. “Our racing heritage is very important and supporting an organization such as RacersReunion and this hall of fame is something we are very excited about,” said Trevor Ashline, President of Safety Solutions, a Mooresville, NC based company that designs and manufactures driver safety equipment for all types of auto racing. Others who have stepped forward to “give back” by sponsoring inductees into this hall of fame are Greg Biffle, Dale Earnhardt Jr., Richard Petty, Trevor Boys, David Ragan, and Hagerty Insurance.
Ned Jarrett will be the Master of Ceremonies with Bobby Allison as Presenting Host. There will be an inductee’s breakfast at Bob Evans in Mooresville at 9:00 AM followed by the induction at Memory Lane Museum at 11:00 AM. An autograph session is scheduled for 1:30 PM and a car show from 10:00 AM – 4:00 PM. Tickets for the ceremony and autograph session are available at Memory Lane Museum, 769 Highway 150, Mooresville, NC.
"This grass roots hall of fame has been a dream for a long time," said founding member, Jeff Gilder. "When Alex Beam agreed last December to allow us to house the hall inside Memory Lane Museum, we got busy and here we are." Gilder also founded the popular social network RacersReunion.com and is involved in the preservation and restoration of Historic Columbia.

Game 2 bigger for Twins than Yanks
NEW YORK -- The Yankees showed on Wednesday night at Yankee Stadium what made them the most dominant team in Major League Baseball this season.
The Bombers defeated the Twins, 7-2, with great pitching, aggressive baserunning and two-run homers from Derek Jeter and Hideki Matsui to take a 1-0 lead in their American League Division Series that continues with Game 2 on TBS at 6:07 ET on Friday evening.
complete postseason coverage PostSeason.tv
And there's no doubt that if the Yankees keep clicking like this on all cylinders, they will make short work of the Twins in this best-of-five series. A.J. Burnett is slated to start for New York against Minnesota's Nick Blackburn in a matchup of right-handers.
"Everyone in their lineup is an All-Star," Twins manager Ron Gardenhire said after Wednesday night's game. "One thing we've learned is, the more mistakes you make, the guys you walk, the more opportunities you give them to put up crooked numbers ... so you try to stay away from those things. But it's almost impossible to start picking and choosing who you want to walk to get to anyone in their lineup, because they can all hit. We know that."

Jon Gosselin: Kate Wants to change joint-custody arrangements
The drama continues between Jon and Kate Gosselin. ET caught up with the reality star dad in New York City, who revealed that his estranged wife Kate is seeking to change their joint-custody arrangements.
ET was with Jon as he geared up to celebrate the birthday of his twins, Cara and Mady. Jon told ET that Kate requested that he only be at their Pennsylvania home from 4 p.m. to 6 p.m. on Thursday for the twin's birthday party. He also alleges that Kate is attempting to revise the custody agreement for this weekend, saying she gave him a schedule.
"She's trying to prevent me from seeing my kids on Mady and Cara's birthday," the father-of-eight said of Kate. "That's like giving her full custody by obeying her."
Jon read an email that he said was from his estranged wife regarding the kids' party. The reality star said the email read, "Due to recent events, it will be too stressful to the kids to have both of us here as planned. I would like to split the evening so they can see us both."
"It's an all-out battle," Jon said of his current relationship with Kate. "She can't tell me what to do."

Dancing With the Stars' recap: Dancing Queen
By Annie Barrett - On the week 3 results show of Dancing With the Stars season 9, Debi Mazar and Maks (sniff!) weren't popular enough to continue on in the hopes of becoming America's Next Top Muggers. Neither of them seemed too surprised or upset about the news, so I'm cool. Whoever was in charge of rushing over the smelling salts to me (nobody) should consider bringing them to Aaron Carter instead. He was on the verge of a kimono-wrapped meltdown just because he and Karina were announced, along with Joanna Krupa and Derek, as ''in jeopardy.'' (Michael Irvin joined Debi in the Bottom Two.) Get a grip, Aaron! A tip for that: Avoid touching your own hair.
It's worth pointing out that Tom Bergeron must have seen the debut of EW.com's Réalité (Michael Slezak's new reality TV video series), because he asked Debi to clarify a very important ballroom dancing issue: how to pronounce her last name. Tom, Samantha, and the jazzy announcer guy had been pronouncing it differently. It turns out Debi doesn't really care! Her grandmother said it ''Mah-zar'' as it was part of a longer original name, but Debi goes around saying ''May-zar'' just because it's easier. Have you heard any talk show host attempt the horror that is saying ''Chmerkovskiy''' for the first/only time? I think I remember Wendy Williams seeing three consecutive consonants on her teleprompter and just going with a non-commital ''Heeeeeeyyyy'' instead.

16 Iraqis killed in terrorist attacks
At least sixteen people have reportedly lost their lives and dozens more were injured in separate militant attacks across Iraq.
In the first incident, at least nine people - including five policemen - were killed and 31others wounded when a bomb placed aboard a minibus went off at a market in the western Iraqi town of Amiriya on Tuesday.
Several cars were also set on fire by the explosion. Security forces cordoned off the area after the attack.
Meanwhile, two civilians sustained injuries when an improvised explosive device (IED) targeting a police patrol ripped through the Bab Sinjar neighborhood in the northern Iraqi city of Mosul on Tuesday.
A volatile ethnic mix of Sunni Arabs, Kurds, and Christians, Mosul remains the scene of frequent shootings and bombings, and US commanders regard the once cosmopolitan city as the last urban bastion of al-Qaeda in Iraq. The capital city of Iraq's Nineveh Province is situated some 396 kilometers (250 miles) northwest of Baghdad.
In another act of violence, some six people were killed and 15 others wounded on Monday when a suicide bomber set off a belt full of explosives at a funeral in the town of Haditha.
