(AP) ? Lawyers will regroup for a second day of testimony in a hearing for three former Penn State officials ensnared in the Jerry Sandusky child sex-abuse scandal, a day after a star witness testified that football coach Joe Paterno had been critical of how the university handled it.

Tuesday's hearing in a Harrisburg courtroom is expected to be short, with just two witnesses.

The judge, William Wenner, must decide whether prosecutors showed enough evidence against the ex-school officials to test the charges in a full trial. The charges, including perjury, conspiracy and endangering the welfare of children, stem from allegations that former Penn State president Graham Spanier, retired university vice president Gary Schultz and ex-athletic director Tim Curley failed to tell police about an allegation against Sandusky, a former assistant football coach, and then tried to hide what they knew.

In Monday's hearing, the star witness, Mike McQueary, testified in a courtroom for the third time since Sandusky's November 2011 arrest that top school officials knew that he had seen Sandusky molesting a boy in a locker room shower.

But the former Penn State assistant coach and quarterback also delivered some unexpected testimony ? that the late Hall of Fame coach Paterno had told him over the years that university administrators "screwed up" in how they responded to McQueary's allegation against Sandusky.

Pressed by defense lawyers about his discussions of the subject, McQueary brought up a specific exchange at football practice in the hours before Paterno's firing on Nov. 9, 2011 ? four days after Sandusky's arrest.

He recalled the head coach saying the school would come down hard on McQueary and try to make him a scapegoat. Paterno also advised McQueary not to trust the administration or then-university counsel Cynthia Baldwin, the former assistant testified.

Make sure to get your own lawyer, he said Paterno told him.

Lawyers for Spanier, Schultz and Curley say the men are innocent. Paterno died in January 2012. He was never charged.

The core of McQueary's testimony is that he saw Sandusky and a boy engaged in a sex act in the locker room shower in 2001 and within days reported it to Paterno, Curley and Schultz.

However, Curley and Schultz have said McQueary never reported that the encounter was sexual in nature, while Spanier has said Curley and Schultz never told him about any sort of sex abuse. They said they believed Sandusky and the boy were engaged in nothing more than horseplay.

Sandusky is serving a 30- to 60-year prison sentence after being convicted last year of sexually abusing 10 boys. He maintains his innocence.

Much of the testimony Monday revolved around prosecutors trying to show that Penn State officials should have known to report Sandusky to police in 2001 after police investigated complaints in 1998 that he had been showering with boys in university locker rooms.

Lawyers for the defendants tried to show they never tried to hide evidence, destroyed evidence or asked school employees to lie.

McQueary last year sued the university, claiming defamation and misrepresentation and seeking millions of dollars in damages. His contract with the school wasn't renewed after the 2011 season.

Former associate of Boston crime boss Bulger to return to stand

By Scott Malone

BOSTON (Reuters) - An admitted murderer and former top associate of reputed Boston mob boss James "Whitey" Bulger is due to return to the witness stand on Tuesday to detail Bulger's crimes.

Kevin Weeks, 57, is the second top-ranking member of the once-feared "Winter Hill" gang to take the stand in Bulger's trial on charges he committed or ordered 19 murders in the 1970s and 1980s.

Weeks, who spent just five years in prison after confessing to five murders but agreeing to testify against Bulger, on Monday recounted his role in some of the murders Bulger is accused of committing.

He described Bulger, one of Boston's most notorious gangsters, as an intimidating figure who once aimed a machine gun at a muscle-bound man in a successful extortion bid.

"Those muscles aren't going to do you any good now," Weeks recalled Bulger saying. The threat worked and the gang extorted some $480,000 from the man, Weeks said.

The 83-year-old Bulger, who spent years on the FBI's "Ten Most Wanted" list of fugitives, has pleaded not guilty to all of the charges, though on the first day of the trial his attorneys said Bulger did commit extortion, loansharking and drug dealing.

His attorneys have argued Bulger was never an informant for the FBI in the defense's effort to undermine the 700-page file the bureau amassed on Bulger over more than a decade as he regularly met with John Connolly, a FBI special agent .

Bulger's lawyers have argued that Connolly, who is serving a 40-year prison sentence for racketeering and murder, fabricated much of the contents of the file to provide cover for his frequent meetings with Bulger. The lawyers said Bulger paid Connolly for information but gave none of his own.

Providing information to the FBI was considered a major breach of the underworld code. The revelation that Bulger had cooperated with investigators came out after he fled Boston on a tip from Connolly, and led many of his associates to turn against him.

Bulger spent more than 16 years in hiding before authorities arrested him in Santa Monica, California, in June 2011.

Weeks is the second of three close associates of Bulger who are key prosecution witnesses in the trial, which is now in its fifth week. John "The Executioner" Martorano took the stand last month and Stephen "The Rifleman" Flemmi is also due to testify.

Bulger's life story inspired Martin Scorsese's 2006 Academy Award-winning film "The Departed," with Jack Nicholson playing a character loosely based on Bulger.

Wedding Kiss Photos: Couple Completes Quest To Kiss On All Of Britain's 60 Piers (PHOTO)

One British couple found a romantic way to enjoy a little PDA and honor Britain's iconic seaside piers -- by kissing on every single one.

Hazel Preller told HuffPost Weddings in an email that she and her now-husband Jay met and had their first kiss at the end of Weston-super-Mare's Grand Pier in Somerset, England, in 2007. But they were disappointed when the pier burned down in 2008.

"When Fleetwood Pier in Lancashire suffered a similar fate a few weeks later we idly wondered how many piers there were left in the country to have a kiss at the end of," Hazel said. "The idea just snowballed!"

They traveled 7,000 miles over two years to smooch at the end of 60 piers across Britain. The quest ended in 2010, when they married on Brighton Pier in East Sussex.

Check out a photo of the Prellers on their wedding day below:

Hazel's book about their journey, titled "From Piers To Eternity," was officially released on Monday.

Saturday was National Kissing Day, and in honor of the occasion, we asked our readers to send us their best photos of themselves sharing a kiss with their partners. Check out the photos in the slideshow below.

(AP Photo/Julie Jacobson)

(AP) ? More than 1,000 people turned out Monday to a Prescott gymnasium to honor the bravery and sacrifice of 19 Hotshot firefighters who died battling a wildfire in Arizona.

Those in the crowd rocked children in their arms, wiped away tears and applauded robustly after each set of remarks, often rising to their feet. Speakers at the memorial quoted heavily from Scripture.

U.S. Rep. Trent Franks, R-Ariz., said the Hotshots laid down their lives not only for their friends and loved ones, but for people they didn't even know.

The men died Sunday after the blaze they were battling near the small town of Yarnell, about 85 miles northwest of Phoenix, exploded tenfold in a matter of hours, trapping them.

Authorities say the tragedy all but wiped out the 20-member Granite Mountain Hotshots, a Prescott-based unit.

Prescott Fire Chief Dan Fraijo spoke in a shaky voice and paused frequently as he described throwing a picnic a month ago for his new recruits and meeting their families.

"About five hours ago, I met those same families at an auditorium," he said during the service, held at the campus of Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University. "Those families lost. The Prescott Fire Department lost. The city of Prescott lost. The state of Arizona and the nation lost."

At the end of the ceremony, dozens of wildfire fighters sporting Hotshot shirts and uniforms from other jurisdictions marched down from the top of the bleachers to the front of the gym auditorium, their heavy work boots drumming a march on the wooden steps.

The firefighters bowed their heads for a moment of silence in memory of their fallen comrades as slides bearing each man's name and age were projected behind them.

The 19 killed were Andrew Ashcraft, 29; Kevin Woyjeck, 21; Anthony Rose, 23; Eric Marsh, 43; Christopher MacKenzie, 30; Robert Caldwell, 23; Clayton Whitted , 28; Scott Norris, 28; Dustin Deford, 24; Sean Misner, 26; Garret Zuppiger, 27; Travis Carter, 31; Grant McKee, 21; Travis Turbyfill, 27; Jesse Steed, 36; Wade Parker, 22; Joe Thurston, 32; William Warneke, 25; and John Percin, 24.

Texas Longhorns football: Austin is the best

The president of DBU has a message for the world.

This isn't a newsflash to fans of the Texas Longhorns, and particularly those who have lived in Austin or went to school at UT, but the city is pretty awesome:

Just another built-in advantage for a school that puts out defensive backs at a rate that only LSU can currently match. And over the course of the last 30 years, only Miami can contend with Texas in terms of defensive backs taken in the first round, with 12.

So, there's DBU. And the lakes. And the music. And 6th Street. And on and on.

Yeah, Austin is pretty awesome.

10 Google Reader Alternatives That Will Ease Your RSS Pain

10 Google Reader Alternatives That Will Ease Your RSS Pain

Google Reader is on its deathbed, slated to meet its end on July 1st. Its demise has been looming in the distance for a while, so this should come as no surprise. And while this is certainly a time of mourning, there's the unseemly business of finding a replacement. Here's a list of platform agnostic alternatives that should help make the transition as painless as possible. We're sorry for your loss.

Feedly

10 Google Reader Alternatives That Will Ease Your RSS Pain

Feedly's one of the best options who need one reader on all their devices. Feedly has finally rolled out its web-based reader in addition to standard Android and iOS apps. It's well designed, but it's a bit more like a newspaper than the constant-flow-of-feeds-to-my-faaaaace Google Reader. But it's free, and Feedly has been out there saying a transition from Google Reader will be "seamless."

Digg Reader

10 Google Reader Alternatives That Will Ease Your RSS Pain

Digg's Reader hasn't come out quite yet, but so far it's looking mighty fine, the grand hope of post-Google readers possibly. Interface-wise, it's as clean and simple as you'd hope for, but it also comes with a few, tiny bonus features like a built-in Instapaper button, and full-on Digg thumbs-up, thumbs-down integration. It's still anyone's game, but those subtle social hooks could make Digg a winner.

AOL Reader

10 Google Reader Alternatives That Will Ease Your RSS Pain

Weird to see AOL popping back on the scene, but AOL Reader is stripped down, simple, and fast. All things you want from your Google Reader replacement. There's nothing too new here, but it's not busted either, and i'll come with a full suite of apps for iOS and Android. It's definitely worth a look.

NewsBlur

10 Google Reader Alternatives That Will Ease Your RSS Pain

NewsBlur's got a solid, Google Reader-esque web app you can try out on the spot if you hop over to their site. And, if you're a mobile user, it also has an Android app as well as iOS versions for the iPhone and iPad. Free accounts max out at 64 feeds, which won't be enough for a real power user, but a real, unlimited subscription is only $1 a month.

The Old Reader

10 Google Reader Alternatives That Will Ease Your RSS Pain

This basically is Google Reader; the interface is practically identically. And you can login right with your Google account import feeds that way, though The Old Reader claims it's flooded at the moment, and won't let you. The downside here is that there are no apps (yet) and social integration is only available by connecting through Facebook. But it's great as a bare-bones replacement for web-use.

NetVibes

10 Google Reader Alternatives That Will Ease Your RSS Pain

NetVibes is a web reader with some powerful customization options. Like any good RSS reader, you can resort to a pure feed approach, but NetVibes also has a dashboard setting that allows you to create and organize "widgets" for specific feeds and folders and move them around. The downside is that there aren't any mobile apps, so you'll be tied to your computer.

Pulse

10 Google Reader Alternatives That Will Ease Your RSS Pain

Pulse (Android) is a flashy, stylish reader that supports the use of multiple columns to organize. And it looks as stunning on your Nexus as it does in your browser.

Flipboard

10 Google Reader Alternatives That Will Ease Your RSS Pain

While a mobile app an never fully fill the hole Google Reader leaves in your desktop browser, Flipboard (Android, iOS) is another great, magazine-like mobile option for folks whose feeds are image-heavy. It's so pretty you might just forgive it for not living on your laptop.

Zite

10 Google Reader Alternatives That Will Ease Your RSS Pain

Zite (Android, iOS) boasts a clean newspapery look with an option for straight-up feed view. Perfect for people who keep their RSS on a second screen.

Twitter?

10 Google Reader Alternatives That Will Ease Your RSS Pain

It's by no means a perfect replacement, but it might be able to fill part of the hole depending on your use-case. Twitter doesn't have an "unread" state, so it's only good for here-and-now developements, but many outlets user their Twitters a glorified RSS feeds anyway, and there's no shortage of mobiles apps, for now anyway. If you're a light RSS user, and a heavy Twitter user, you might be able to work something out. Maybe.

HIGH SCHOOL FOOTBALL: Derrick Villard prepares for Military Bowl

Quarterback Tim Boyle fakes a hand-off to Cromwell running back Derrick Villard Jr. during practice at Xavier Thursday evening. Villard and Boyle are members of Team National Guard and will play in the Connecticut Military Bowl Saturday at 4:30 at Rentschler Field in East Hartford Photo by Catherine Avalone/The Middletown Press

MIDDLETOWN >> Despite averaging nearly 11 yards per carry and smashing career and single season school records for rushing yards, Cromwell?s Derrick Villard didn?t get many Division I scholarship offers. That?s sort of the deal when you play in the Pequot Conference.

So Villard will be playing football and taking AP courses as a post-graduate student at Trinity-Pawling (N.Y.) in September.

?I got some (Division I) looks during the season,? said Villard, who averaged 239.3 yards per game for the Panthers last fall. ?I really want to play at the next level. That?s the main reason for me going there.?

Before heading to New York, Villard will get another chance to showcase his abilities today in the inaugural Hall of Fame Classic Military Bowl at Rentschler Field. Kick-off is at 4:30 p.m.

Connecticut?s newest senior all-star football game pits the National Guard team versus the Marines team and National Guard head coach Jim Buonocore (Ledyard) is happy to have Villard on his side.

?(Derrick) stood out from the beginning at the combine in March,? said Buonocore. ?We identified him as one of the top backs there that day. We were very fortunate to be able to select him in the draft and he?s been doing a good job.?

Villard (6-1, 205) will be sharing the tailback duties with Justin Potts (Platt) and John Shannon (Bullard-Havens). The National Guard backfield also includes quarterbacks Tim Boyle (Xavier) and Mike Nicol (Wolcott), and fullback Austin Kingsbury (Windsor Locks).

?It?s fun and I like the atmosphere with all the players on the team,? Villard said. ?They have a different outlook on football in general. It?s a lot more competitive. Coming from my school our linemen are not as big as some of these kids. I think we have one kid who weighs 305 on this team, so there?s a big difference.?

Cromwell football coach Chris Eckert is one of Buonocore?s assistant coaches.

?It?s a unique opportunity for Derrick to be playing in the first game in this format,? said Eckert, who guided the Panthers to an 8-2 mark last season. ?I think it?s neat that he was recognized as one of the Top 100 players in Connecticut. The game is going to be a great experience for him. It will be something he?ll never forget.? Continued...

As a junior, Villard gained 2,125 yards and scored 27 rushing touchdowns while leading Cromwell to the Class S state championship game. His sensational 72-yard TD run helped Cromwell rally from a 13-0 deficit against Northwest Catholic in the Class S semifinals and propelled the Panthers to a 35-19 win.

Villard then gained 161 yards on 28 carries and scored three touchdowns against Holy Cross of Waterbury in the Class S finals. The Panthers, however, fell short 34-27 in a classic at Rentschler Field.

Villard?s senior year was equally impressive. He set a school record for most yards in a season with 2,393, surpassing 5,000 for his career, also a school record. Villard scored 22 touchdowns and was named to the New Haven Register?s All-State Third Team.

?He was our work horse,? said Eckert. ?A lot of times the staff and I said, ?let?s just put the ball in his hands and see what happens.? He definitely carried us. He?s going to be greatly missed.?

Added Buonocore, ?He?s a big, physical kid?a little bigger than I had thought in terms of what he looks like when the pads go on. He?s a hard worker. He?s picking up the offense. I think he?s going to have a big say in our success on Saturday.?
