J. Michelle Hoffman, a sophomore paralegal science major, has received the Greater Lexington Paralegal Association Scholarship. Hoffman, from Lake Charles, La., is president of EKU's Student Paralegal Association and has a 3.74 GPA. She will be presented the scholarship at the GLPA’s December luncheon. “The ($250) scholarship will help me pay for books,” Hoffman said. “The most valuable part of the award will be a student membership in the GLPA because that will give me the opportunity to meet and network with paralegals in Lexington, as well as learning opportunities.” Hoffman plans to work as a paralegal in the Lexington area upon graduation.

In an interview with Time Off magazine, Klaxons guitarist Simon Taylor-Davis suggests that a follow-up to their critically praised debut 'Myths Of The Near Future' won't be as hard as people might think. "Listening back to it, I think it's very excit

I've been looking forward to this for a veeeery long time. Ever since Jose released his first album, which eventually sold over 700,000 copies, I've been stoked on hearing more. Finally, on September 25th, we'll be treated to his sophomore effort In Our Nature.Along with the nice email informing me of this upcoming release, came links to two videos that have already been made for two tracks from the new LP. They're part of a multi-part video series, directed by Andreas Nilsson - the director behind The Knife's "Silent Shout".The songs are nothing short of amazing, and the videos are pretty cool too - though a little disturbing. They do feature a sort of man-hog, after all. If all else fails, just close your eyes and listen to the amazing tracks."Down the Line""Killing for Love"Jose Gonzalez: Official SiteJose Gonzalez: Myspace

(CSTV U-WIRE) SALT LAKE CITY — Jason Petho has no doubts about how the Utah hockey club will compete this year. He’s not talking about the final scores or the team’s record at the end of the season. The only thing under complete control is the effort the club will put forth in each game. "It’s all or nothing," he said. What have they got to lose anyway, right? A lot, actually. Petho, a New Jersey native who teamed with fellow colleague J.M. LeCointre last summer to revive U’s hockey more…

In a lot of ways, this is the second season of Chad Pennington’s career. Chronologically, it’s the eighth year in the NFL for the quarterback. But it’s actually Year 2 under a new regime led by coach Eric Mangini and offensive coordinator Brian Schottenheimer. “After my first year with this system, the goal is not only what to do but how to do it and how to improve,” Pennington said to The Associated Press during the New York Jets’ minicamp Friday. “To become expert at the system and understand the details. They are what decide whether you win or lose. “The first year was learning how to line up and do your assignments. The second year, you do the finer details with adjustments — find the things you can do better to make those adjustments to do your job better.” For Pennington, mastering the current offensive approach shouldn’t be a problem mentally, because he’s one of the more cerebral quarterback

(CSTV U-WIRE) MINNEAPOLIS — Following its March 25 overtime loss to North Dakota in the NCAA West Regional final, the Minnesota men’s hockey team entered an offseason with the distinct possibility that its top underclassmen wouldn’t return. And when defenseman Erik Johnson announced he signed with the St. Louis Blues in April, that possibility started to become reality. But last Wednesday changed that perspective. Center Kyle Okposo opted to come back to the Gophers and, in the process, more…

Tucson-based The American Black Lung have been compared to 80s hardcore and 70s hard rock/metal, which makes them pretty comfortable bed fellows with contemporaries like Panthers or Das Oath, or any number of more mainstream acts on the Warped circuit, which they’ll be playing for a time during their summer tour.

Lee Ryan tells The Sunday Mirror he's working on his second solo album. "It's Steve Tyler from Aerosmith meets R&B crooner Michael McDonald - live instruments but no artifical beats," the former Blue star said from Los Angeles.

It appears that the Save LT from Madden campaign has been successful, but Titans fans may now be wishing they had started their own campaign. Reports are saying that last year's Offensive Rookie of the Year Vince Young will be on the Madden '08 cover. The infamous cover spot has been thought to bring players nothing but grief and bad luck throughout the past few years, and Young appears to be next in line behind Shaun Alexander, Daunte Culpepper, Donovan McNabb and others who have suffered injury or an overall lack of production following having their mugs on the popular game cover. An announcement is expected to confirm the report later today. For Tennessee fans, I guess it was good while it lasted...
