Bill
Goldberg and Kevin Nash are currently in Santa Fe as there is actually a
training camp to get the actors doing the football scenes in "Longest
Yard" in shape. The movie starts filming at the end of the month in Los
Angeles. Steve Austin is not in the camp, and nobody seemed to know whether
he was still doing the movie or not. The training is what caused Kevin Nash
to pull out of his 7/21 booking in Honolulu for HCW.
-The WWE has fully implemented their dress code policy and most everyone has
adhered to the policy with only a few people complaining about it.

PIERRE, S.D. - Lawyers for Bill Janklow filed the final paperwork
Tuesday with the state Supreme Court in a quest for reversal of his
second-degree manslaughter conviction or a new trial.
Five circuit judges appointed by the high court will now consider the
written arguments of defense attorneys and the state. The judges also may
review hundreds of pages of trial testimony before reaching their
decision, which could come within a few weeks or take several months.
All five Supreme Court justices have disqualified themselves from the
case because Janklow appointed four of them while governor and appointed
the fifth justice to an earlier circuit judgeship.
Janklow was found guilty on Dec. 8 for last summer's death of Randy
Scott of Hardwick, Minn. Scott, 55, died instantly when his motorcycle
slammed into the side of a car Janklow drove through a stop sign 10 miles
south of Flandreau.
Edwin Evans and Melissa Hinton, Janklow's defense attorneys, argue in
their final legal brief that the former attorney general, governor and
congressman did not get a fair trial.
The prosecution was erroneously allowed to argue that the fallen
politician routinely drove fast and ignored other rules of the road, the
defense attorneys said.
Jurors may have been led to believe Janklow should be convicted because
he had frequently broken traffic laws and consciously did so on the date
of the fatal crash, his lawyers argued.
Testimony should not have been allowed from a woman who said Janklow
barely missed her family after running a stop sign at the same
intersection several months earlier and a former state trooper who said he
had stopped Janklow for going 84 mph in a 40-mph construction zone, Evans
and Hinton argued.
"The state used the evidence during the trial for an improper
purpose and urged the jury to convict Janklow on the basis of his driving
history," they said.

- The 2004 Sturgis Motorcycle
Rally officially started Monday, but early arriving bikers have been
wandering through town for several days.
Organizers think more than 400,000 people will
visit the area for the annual event. They say rally attendance has
increased each of the last two years. The 2003 crowd was estimated at
500,000 people.
Effective Sunday, Main Street was closed to
everything but motorcycles. It will stay that way for the full week of the
64th annual rally.
Bikie boss on threat charge August 12, 2004 A prominent member of the
Hells Angels bikie gang was charged yesterday over physical threats made
to a businessman.
A second man was also charged over the threats of violence to the
55-year-old Darwin businessman. The two Howard Springs men, aged 42 and
29, were arrested late yesterday afternoon.
Police said it was the culmination of a five-month operation.
The Northern Territory News has learned the 42-year-old man is a
well-known member of the Darwin chapter of the Hells Angels Motorcycle
Club. Police said that both men have been charged with ``several
offences'' after allegedly making a series of threats and making demands
with menace. The Northern Territory News has learned the threats were over
money.
The two men allegedly used standover tactics and threatened the
businessman with physical violence at his business.
Major and Organized Crime Division Senior Sergeant Scott Pollock said last
night the offences allegedly took place between April and August.
``Police allege the threats of physical violence against the 55-year-old
man were made during personal visitations to the victim's business,'' Sen-Sgt
Pollock said.
``Police adopt a zero tolerance to people who threaten or intimidate any
member of the public.'' Sen-Sgt Pollock said the police operation was
continuing. He said its focus had shifted to investigating the associates
of the two arrested men. Sen-Sgt Pollock would not comment last night on
whether further arrests were imminent.
