The Other Affleck
Casey Affleck has been living in the shadow of his brother, Ben for the past 15 years. But now, his moment of glory has arrived. With two big back-to-back dramas; The Assassination of Jesse James and Gone Baby Gone, the laid-back low-profile actor is set to let the real drama begin. As 2008 looks to be a good and busy year for Affleck, FACES tracks down the new leading man and shows you that he really has it in him. Born baby born If you think the younger Affleck isn't as famous as his brother because he is less talented, think again. The American actor is also credited as writer, editor, producer, director, advisor and screenwriter in many films - stretching his capabilities beyond that of Ben's. Born Caleb Casey Affleck-Boldt on August 12, 1975 in Falmouth, Massachusetts, the second son of Timothy Affleck and Chris Ann Boldt grew up in quite an unstable home as a child.

Salon caters to customers of male persuasion
It's a wonder Mike Huff didn't pull his hair out before his new business opened its doors. "This went wrong. That went wrong," he said. "It was just one thing after the other." Huff survived the process, hair intact, and welcomes customers to try Gentlemen's Top Cuts, a salon that caters to guys at 7425 Middlebrook Pike. The shop joins a growing number of male-focused salons, which in Knoxville includes SuperCuts and Sport Clips. He also owns another salon, Kids Fun Kutz in West Knoxville. "What I shot for was a high-end salon similar to what my wife goes to," Huff said. "I thought, what can we do to make the average man come here and not be bored to tears? I wanted something man-friendly." Clients will know that this is not the typical salon when they walk in the door.
How do you figure out where the cougar's from?
An elusive cougar emerged from shadows of doubt into the public eye in Chicago, but experts still have many questions about the big cat. Was the animal shot and killed by Chicago police Monday in an alley of a crowded neighborhood the same one documented earlier this year in southern Wisconsin? Was it the same one observed in recent weeks by police and others in North Chicago and Round Lake Park? Wildlife officials in Illinois and Wisconsin were stymied in attempts to get information Tuesday. "I'm not even sure whose custody the animal is in," said Clay Nielsen, a cougar expert with the Cooperative Wildlife Research Laboratory at Southern Illinois University. Nielsen was involved in investigations of the only two confirmed cougar sightings in Illinois since the 1860s.
