| Home and Away's Indiana Evans growing up fast
Although she's only 17 there's always speculation about who Evans is dating and, when it's rumoured to be someone from the Channel 7 soap opera, it's sure to make the internet. But Evans says it didn't take long to figure out how to deal with the speculation surrounding her love life. "It's really odd, it's bizarre when people you haven't met say things about you, but I don't go looking for it," she says. "Being on Home and Away I have grown up a lot quicker than I would have if I wasn't on the show. But, then again, I don't have a life to compare it to because when I was starting out I was so much younger." Evans' character Matilda Hunter also had some big issues to deal with last year when she broke up with on-screen boyfriend Ric Dalby, played by Mark Furze, after he had an affair with a married woman.
For Sunday, Dec. 23
This week in Britney's leftovers: Lindsay Lohan is reportedly dating the extra-skeevy J.R. Rotem. This week in people who don't ever cheat: Eva Longoria and Tony Parker are truly, deeply and epically in love and would never step out. OK! Cover: We usually resist reading OK! because suck-up stories are kinda boring. But, for Britney's IQ-challenged, knocked-up baby sister, we'll make an exception. We learn Jamie Lynn was "shocked" to discover she was pregnant. We assume the age-inappropriate baby daddy told her she couldn't get pregnant unless she specifically asked Santa Claus to bring her a baby. The story, sadly, does not address how upset Britney is that the media attention has momentarily shifted from her. This week in parent of the year: There's no story explaining why Katie is the best mom, but we agree that she fulfills her contractual obligations with grace.

He was working in a group home with abused children when he got a first-hand glance at life as a police officer.
"There was a lot of stuff I liked about my job," Smith said. "I came to work, I worked with people, I helped people do a lot of problem solving. When I rode along with my friend I saw that he did a lot of the same things I did, in addition to the police work. It looked like a fun career."
It took Smith about a year after he first applied to get hired by the Mill Creek Police Department. During that time, he was subjected to a background check that included a criminal records search and interviews with his friends and family. Mill Creek even checked his credit report.
Once he passed all those requirements, he was hired and was off to the state police academy, where he finished first in his class.
Investors say lax oversight cost them millions
Could you explain to me how in God's name something like this happens? I thought there are government agencies that watchdog over people and don't allow this to happen over and over again,'' she said. Brad Gilmore of Minneapolis, who lost $100,000 in money turned over to Gross, said he blames regulators. ''I thought their responsibility is to guard us from these kinds of people, but they set him free on us,'' he said. ``That makes my blood boil.'' .
Jonglei state reviews government employees
There used to be a common belief that high ranking state officials pay money to unemployed people or 'double dealers,' (dual employees as others may prefer them). But now there are high possibilities that the doctrine may be true. Some 'sharp' guys serve in more than one ministry and government loss thousands of dollars every month to non serving official. Governor Kuol Mnayang promised an 'iron head' for the victims. Ministries employ more people than to serve the state. Majority of employees are casual workers, thought to be doing 'a lot of thing,' state officials observed. However, the main theme of today assessment is to apprehend those ones involved in dual jobs. "Running from ministry to another, are you gathering fruits in a forest?" an official argued. A source that prefers anonymity told Sudan Tribune that change can't come through forced 'quality serving,' but a change of heart from the state citizens.

That's what's needed when you're setting up 30,000 dominoes. Tomorrow night at 7 p.m., those dominoes will come tumbling down. The last domino will knock a ball onto a computer keyboard and press a key to send a signal online to another computer at another school in the Bay Area. That computer's disk drive will open and knock down the first domino in that school's display. This will continue at two more schools. Following me? And then the signal will be sent to a school in Hong Kong and finally Beijing. In Beijing the display is huge: 100,000 dominoes. It's all about bridging the two cultures. www.nexusbridge.com Developing: Sentence in High-profile SF Gang Case Posted by Ethan Harp at 2:55 p.m.
Tennis' road to Ohio is paved with Subway Sandwiches
What happens when the Maroons hit the road and have to take their game beyond the Ivory Tower? Sports staff writer and men's tennis starter Steve Saltarelli provides some insight as he takes us around DIII as a part of his column. Tennis is a weird college sport. In its natural environment, tennis is played either individually or as a doubles team. This is the way all players know the sport growing up and traveling to play tournaments. Then, when college comes around, this strange notion of team comes into play. Now, you are playing the same exact sport, except with a school name on your chest. Now you can win your match, yet the team can lose. That team dimension takes on a whole new meaning when you start sharing a bus or hotel room and need to drown out the fans of opposing squads during a match.

Inge on WDFN: Ring is nice, but career stability more important
We don't need a cancer in the locker room. That's the first time I've felt this way about Inge but he's keeps saying things that aren't good for the chemistry in the clubhouse. I agree with honrechuck, if you wouldnt have sucked it up last year the Tigers wouldn't have replaced you. It isn't their obligation to trade you, you lost your spot so suck it up and honor your contract. .
