Saban acknowledges Alabama needs to address off-field issues
TUSCALOOSA, Ala. -- Off-the-field problems have been piling up for Alabama's football team. Two players were arrested in a span of six days, one player has been dismissed and linebacker Prince Hall has been indefinitely suspended. With spring practice approaching and a top-rated recruiting class recently wrapped up, coach Nick Saban still often finds himself dealing with Bama's bad behavior. "It's a problem.

Funeral For Volunteer Firefighter Draws Thousands
GREELEY, Colo. (CBS4) ― Firefighters from across the state honored a fallen comrade in Weld County on Thursday.Capt. Shane Stewart of a small volunteer department near Greeley died in the line of duty last Saturday when his nearly new tanker-pumper rig rolled on the way to a call. Stewart, 33, of Pierce, was headed to assist the victim of a medical emergency in nearby Ault. At his funeral, which was led by fellow volunteer firefighter Rev. Erik Karas, firefighters saluted him one last time. "Shane, you will be deeply missed by everyone who knew and loved you," Ault-Pierce Fire Chief Scott Wagner said. Karas prayed that the firefighters at the ceremony could "continue to save lives, ease pain and mend the torn fabric of lives entrusted to our protection." The procession to Eaton Cemetery included more than 100 emergency vehicles.
Navigating to retirement
Over the last six months, some of the toughest decisions have been not to make any decisions," said Gold, who also works with the Moores and Scotts. "It's really important to stay the course."
401(k) nest egg For many workers nearing retirement, workplace 401(k) programs represent a nice pot of money. That makes them a tempting place to look for cash as credit conditions tighten.
The issue of whether or not to take a 401(k) loan is one of several key decisions being thrust upon workers as they're forced to assume more control over their retirement plans. Fewer employers offer company-managed pensions, so employees must make more of their own decisions.
The various 401(k)-style retirement plans can be a great way to accumulate wealth. The programs feature tax-sheltered growth and employer-provided matching funds in most cases.
S.F. park to host massive music festival
The inaugural Outside Lands Music and Arts Festival will launch with all the subtlety of a rocket ship. With a lineup that includes headliners Radiohead, Tom Petty and Jack Johnson, this three-day festival has the potential to be one of the biggest concerts in Bay Area history. The event is set for Aug. 22-24 at Golden Gate Park in San Francisco. Radiohead will headline the first night, with Petty and Johnson batting cleanup on, respectively, Aug. 23 and 24. Those are the only three names that have yet been announced. The festival is being put together, in part, by the same folks that present the mammoth Bonnaroo Festival each summer in Tennessee. The event, perhaps the most ambitious in the park's rich history of hosting concerts, will feature five performance stages and the programming will represent a wide range of styles, from rock and blues to hip-hop and reggae to soul and jazz.
Allton Starts Web Design Firm in Lake Saint Louis, MO
Michael Allton can still remember his first website. "It was 1997, and my mother had just formed a new non-profit organization in Norwalk, Ohio called Project Leadership. It was designed to promote leadership and community values and she wanted a website to help recruit members. I used FrontPage 97 and it was very basic, but it sparked my love for website design." Since then, Michael has come a long way. For several years, he designed websites for businesses and organizations in Ohio while with an IT Firm. Then, last year, after moving to Lake Saint Louis, he started his own design firm, Stadia Studio. "I wanted very much to get back into designing websites for small businesses," said Michael. "I've always enjoyed helping businesses grow, and having a great website is an integral part of that." Stadia Studio specializes in providing small businesses with complete web services including website design, hosting, search engine optimization and consulting.
