Local football team 11 & 0 going into last playoff game

Patti C — Sun, 09 Nov 2008 17:07:55 GMT

Memorial High Schools Panthers Football team is 11 & 0 going into the final game next Saturday. One of their key players is Kenny Coyle. An 8th grader from St. Anthonys. Panthers are the only team that has the players names on their jerseys like the professional teams. This was done by Kenny Coyle's mother for the first game of the play offs last week. She did this to encourage the players. The letters for the name plates were donated by the Falcons. It would be awsome if the team could get some news coverage.

When Ashley Swearengen began RJI just a few years ago, who would have imagined that Human Investment would rank equally with Economics and Infrastructure? The Central Valley has long been recognized as the home of "Cheap Labor", but at what cost? It appears to me that Fresno has been the brunt of far too many bad jokes when this is no joking matter at all (as a boomerang-er, I've heard most of them). We all have the opportunity to make CHANGE happen here as a model with global potential. It is not only our fair Community that experiences these ailments, but our Nation and our World as well. When an Initiative that recognizes that the Sigma of Infinity equals ONE, maybe we will move into something other than a binary simplex recognizing that we are not complete without each other. I believe that all the greatness necessary to bring this topic to reality is right HERE, right NOW. I'm not judging, and I don't hate anybody. It's just an observation seen while thumbing through the pages that will become the annuls of time.

The View 9/30/08

Sheila Wells — Wed, 01 Oct 2008 05:49:44 GMT

Sirs I am crazed from what happened on this morning's View toward the end of the segment. There was a therapist and a woman who had been sexually abused by her father when she was a child. The very instant that she began to get into the details of her experience she was totally cut off (all sound removed) replaced by an exasperating weather and emergency tape that interestingly enough lasted until her description was completed.
WHAT is going on? Do we have the morality Nazi patrol protecting the viewers? I am just unbelieving that the Fresno channel could have this kind of 'protectionism' and intrusion laid on us.
I have written the same message to the 'mother ship' (I assume in N.Y.).
If I am not given a personal reply I am writing to the people on that show.
This is not ok. Sheila in Coarsegold.

Concerned citizen — Wed, 21 May 2008 02:15:02 GMT

Watching the video made me feel sick and very sorry for the media. Wow, they must feel proud to be able to do this to our heroes!! These are, in fact, the same individuals that you would call if you or your family were in danger! It seems that they do not have anything else to do but make a group of officers seem like very bad criminals. Way to go Santaya Rose!! You should feel proud of yourself. Did you get an extra treat for running this story?
The photo of the sergeant is being treated the same as if he were a suspect in a serious crime. It reminds me of the time Officer/Chaplain Hurth was being charged for murdering his lover's husband. The photo of Hurth was being shown the same way. What these officers did was poor judgement indeed. This is a personnel matter not something for the news! Do we notice these officers when they go out and protect us? I only pray that the officers do not think that your portrayal of them represents the majority of people in this community!!

Hybrid Cars Go Stylish

Cars Fresno — Wed, 26 Mar 2008 05:16:33 GMT
Hybrid Cars Go Stylish
by: Alex Baumm

Hybrid cars are taking the world by storm - figuratively, literally. And here are just two of the latest hybrid cars that avid car fans and buyers are sure to love.

If you want an eco-friendly hybrid car that not only drives like a dream but is a weight off your conscious too, then you must see the PGO Cevennes Turbo-CNG. This nifty little hybrid car will run on bio gas making it essential in today's fight against global warming.

You may be forgiven for thinking that hybrid cars are going to end up looking, well, ugly. This is simply not the case where the PGO Cevennes Turbo-CNG is concerned. Looking at the car's rounded edges and the sleek design you may as well be looking at one of the top sports cars in the world. With a soft top to boot, you can make sure your next luxury car is a hybrid one.

The PGO Cevennes Turbo-CNG has been developed by BRA GmbH. This company has been at the very forefront of the development of hybrid cars for well over ten years now. They are based in Germany and they have developed not only environmentally-friendly hybrid cars but cars that have excellent style and design, as well.

The car itself isn't due to be released until March 2008, but you can be sure it will open to a fanfare of utter amazement! The car is only likely to cost around 48,000 Euros making it not only environmentally-friendly but also friendly on your pockets, as well.

The Cadillac Provoq concept

America has realized that the gas-guzzling, environment-harming vehicles are not going to save the world any time soon. The eco-drive and style brought by hybrid cars have finally found their way to America and they have managed to do it in amazing degree... Not that we expected anything less of course.

As the flag bearer of hybrid cars, the Cadillac Provoq concept car has two main points. On the one side, it clearly shows the style, class and beauty that is renowned with Cadillac cars. It also has in its favour the hybrid car technology that is actually making the car a sure heart-stopper.

The Cadillac Provoq concept car is made to appeal to the luxury car owners; it oozes class and style and is sure to stand up in its own right against other luxury cars. If it is luxury next to hybrid car technology that you are looking for then you need not look any further.

The Cadillac Provoq concept hybrid car has wheels that are powered by the car's 94bhp motor, which of course is electric. The car's rear wheels have the 54bhp motor each. These features enhance the Provoq's mileage for every small amount of gas it consumes - saving the planet and your pocket from hundreds of dollars spent on fuel. This is something that Cadillac Provoq owners would be very much proud of.

The PGO Cevennes Turbo-CNG and the Cadillac Provoq concept will fit right into any city or town and with their sporty look and sleek design they are simply head turners.

Cosmetic Dentistry Fresno, porcelain veneers

Dentists Fresno — Wed, 26 Mar 2008 05:13:28 GMT
Cosmetic Dentistry Fresno, could you benefit from porcelain veneers (lumineers)

Changing Your Looks With Cosmetic Dentistry
by: Charles Preston

Cosmetic dentistry is very popular right now because people are starting to realize that a cosmetic dentist isn't anything you should be afraid of. A cosmetic dentist can actually help you feel better about yourself in a variety of ways. Because a lot of who we are is how we feel about ourselves, we can't afford to have a smile that we aren't comfortable with. Your smile is the easiest way to show people what a warm person you are, but when you aren't feeling good about your smile it's hard to let that warm side show through the way you want to. A cosmetic can easily turn your aging or unattractive smile into something beautiful.

A cosmetic dentist is still a dentist; it's just a dentist who has special training in more than the general removal of cavities, braces, and the like. A cosmetic dentist is someone who has been given training to help you feel better about your smile, while keeping the integrity of your teeth in tact. A cosmetic can perform very simple acts such as teeth whitening to make you feel better about your smile, or something more complicated such as porcelain veneers or tooth shaping. A cosmetic dentist can work with you to formulate a plan that will give you what you are looking for, while still keeping your teeth and your gums healthy.

While the idea of going to a cosmetic dentist may be quite exciting despite the dental procedures, you should really do your research about any dentist that you choose to go to. Before you let your cosmetic dentist do anything to you, it's wise to ask for pictures and references of people who have had the same procedure done by the same dentist. There is a lot that can make you feel great where cosmetic dentistry is concerned, but if you aren't careful you can end up with a dentist who doesn't really know what they are doing which can leave you, your teeth, and your self image suffering as a result. So, before you get started ask your cosmetic dentist for pictures and referrals and don't worry, the good ones won't take offense to this request!

If you are self-conscious about your dull teeth and you think they could be whiter, a cosmetic dentist can help you out by whitening your teeth. Tooth whitening is very popular and minimally invasive. There are several techniques for tooth whitening, the most popular using whitening gel, and lights to whiten teeth. With just a couple whitening appointments your teeth can be as white as they were when you were a kid, or even whiter! It's amazing how much whitening your teeth can change the way you look and feel, so if you think you might like to have whiter teeth get with your cosmetic dentist today to discuss the options available to you.

If you think your teeth are white and straight but they just don't look all that great, you might want to talk to a dentist about tooth shaping or even gum shaping. These two procedures actually can change the shape of your teeth and your gums, changing your smile completely. It's amazing how much a little tooth or gum shaping will change your smile, and this may be an option for you.
One of the more invasive techniques is porcelain veneers, which require the actual tooth to be ground down to fit a veneer over it. Porcelain veneers are great for people with poor teeth, awkward shape, and just in need of some help. Porcelain veneers aren't something you can change your mind about later, so you need to be sure that your cosmetic dentist really believes that it is necessary to perform this procedure.
Remember that a new smile will make you feel great, but your new smile will only be as good as your cosmetic dentist. So, do your research and then look forward to your new healthy and beautiful smile.

Running Horse Golf Course, Donald Trump

Gary — Thur, 15 Nov 2007 05:07:42 GMT
Wow,

Running Horse Golf Course was originally meant to be the site of a PGA Tour event and a catalyst for economic development in southwest Fresno.

Fresno Mayor Alan Autry on Tuesday offered a Plan B for the project in southwest Fresno -- turn it into a business park.

I can't believe the turns this story is taking.

Anyone have some insight into this?
