| Parents search for answers about daughter's killing
Her parents called her Aggie.She had her troubles, Agnes McFedries Kennedy. But there was a whole lot more to her than an addiction to crack cocaine."When she died, some people looked at her as just another woman on the street," Jean McFedries said of her daughter, who was found murdered in Davenport three days before Christmas. "She wasn’t just another woman on the street. She was special. She was loved. She was ours."McFedries Kennedy’s father, Scotty McFedries, remembers the police knocking on his door at 2 a.m. The rest is a blur.When the news of their daughter’s death hit their homes, Jean and Scotty called their other children, along with McFedries Kennedy’s four kids. The family broke down together."All I remember is that it was snowing like blazes, and then there was absolute turmoil," Jean said.
Pans poised for flipping fun
There were pancakes aplenty in Newark Market Place on Shrove Tuesday as Beaumond House Community Hospice challenged people to test their flipping skills. Entrants, either individuals or as teams, paid to take part in the market or at the hospice, on London Road, and raised £170.
The aim was to flip a pancake as many times as possible in a minute.
Competitors in the market started flipping after the traditional pancake bell had been rung at the parish church.
The first contestants were the Mayor and Mayoress of Newark, Mr and Mrs Bryan Richardson, the Rector of Newark, the Rev Vivian Enever, and the chairman of Newark and Sherwood District Council, Mrs Sylvia Michael.
Pancakes were pre-cooked and donated by White's Fine Dining, of Appletongate, and lemons were courtesy of Hardy's Farm Shop, Farndon.
Hip-Hop Rumors: Joel Ortiz Off Aftermath? Is Bow Wow Crazy? Amy ...
Wow Bow doesn't have to do this. He doesn't. He can still make his name Bow Wow again. The rumor is that he got pissed off at Chris Brown and spit on his R&B counterpart. That's word to Omarion! Anyway apparently at a show in Dallas, Wow Bow ended his set off and accused Brown of messing up his set. How? I'm not sure how. Chris Brown is the headliner of the show, but I don't know what he did. Anyway, Wow Bow had to be restrained and out came the spit. I know this is only a rumor, but I have to ask: IS WOW BOW CRAZY?
Now that I got a good laugh out of that, you should know that Wow Bow has stated on the record that this never happened. Chris Brown hasn't issued any denial.
OBAMA HAS A SHOT!
OK, I know one doesn't have anything to do with the other, but I thought I would say this anyway.

Homemade lasagna: Seasoned with family memories
The first aroma that would waft into my childhood bedroom on a Sunday morning was the smell of onions and garlic frying. That scent would wake me up. I would hear the sizzle as the onions hit the hot olive oil in the pan; the sputtering sound of the crushed canned tomatoes following suit occurred moments later. In my parents' home, Sunday was macaroni and gravy day (you might call it "pasta" with "sauce"), and holidays offered the hallowed lasagna. Relatives would stop by after church with a warm loaf of bakery Italian bread to chat for a bit before returning home to their family's version of this classic. Inevitably, when my mother wasn't looking, we'd grab hunks of the warm loaf and dip it into the pot, blow on it, and devour. On cue, my mother would complain that someone had left bread crumbs in the sauce.
