Many letters sent, plus a map of the dangerous corners….Yellowstone & Juno, Kessel & Selfridge, Yellowstone & Kessel with remedial suggestions. WE ARE BASICALLY IGNORED!

Guy was hit by a car to death! As per driver he was traveling 20 miles per hour but how its possiable that Arkadiy hit the car’s windshild, break it and flew out in certain distance and lended on a ground? If driver would drive 20 miles per hour there wouldn’t be such strong impact and Arkadiy would still be alive! Police put on report that there was no signal sign but they were not even there and didnt know from what distance he flew out.

Red Storm stars reflect on historic season with fans dreaming of deep run during March Madness

In just his second year at the helm of the St. John’s Red Storm, basketball Hall of Famer Rick Pitino was named Big East Coach of the Year on Wednesday after leading his squad to its first outright regular season conference championship in 40 years and matched a program record 27 regular season victories. The Johnnies lost just four games all season by seven points combined. St. John’s also went an undefeated 18-0 at home for the first time since 1931-32. It earned them their highest national ranking (No. 6) since the 1990-91 season.

Pitino is the first St. John’s coach to be named the Big East’s Coach of the Year since Lou Carnesecca, who died on Saturday, Nov. 30, at age 99 and just five weeks shy of his 100th birthday.
