Jeff Burton
CONCORD, N.C. – Jeff Burton came from the back of the field Friday night to win the crash-filled NASCAR Busch Series race at Lowe’s Motor Speedway.
The Nextel Cup star had a fast car, but was overshadowed for much of the 200-lap race by runaway points leader Carl Edwards and pole-winner Greg Biffle, who swapped the lead back and forth several times before both went out in multi-car accidents just seven laps apart.

Women are more prone to workplace because of the many roles they play in life: as career woman, wife, mother, daughter, and friend. Women work way beyond the 9-5 shift, often having to rush home to cook dinner, help the kids with homework, and prepare the next day’s office attire for the hubby. The stress and anxiety caused by endless tasks and impossible deadlines in a high-speed, high-tech world has made women’s lives a living web of complexity.
The question is: How can women cope with stress and anxiety? The first step is to dissect the problem and understand how these psychological and emotional conditions make women’s lives more difficult.

EVANSTON, Ill. (AP) — C.J. Bacher’s eyes should be wide with anticipation when the Northwestern quarterback takes the field Saturday against Minnesota.
Coming off a wild 48-41 overtime win at Michigan State when he threw five TD passes — one a game-winner — and passed for a school-record 520 yards, Bacher faces a Minnesota defense that hasn’t stopped much of anything this season.
While the Gophers (1-5, 0-3) are trying to fine tune a spread offense of their own, they might have trouble containing one at Ryan Field. Minnesota is yielding 515 yards per game — 345 passing — and 37 points. The Gophers have lost four straight.
