Sunday
afternoon, in spite of the high temperatures, it
was all smiles for Nancy and Jim Ireland as the
annual MS Walk took place at Kickapoo Creek Park in
Lincoln. Nancy is the coordinator of the
annual event, and once everyone is on the road,
walking the perimeter of the park, she gets to
sigh a little sigh of relief as another
successful event goes into the books.

Rachel and Dave Brown are
shown in this undated image after winning on the latest edition of "The Amazing Race,"
which aired Sunday on CBS.
The Madison, Wis., couple
outlasted 10 other couples to win the $1 million grand prize.
Dave Brown is in the Wisconsin
Army National Guard and served in Iraq. He also teaches military
science at the University of Wisconsin-Madison.
Rachel Brown is a project
manager for a software company.
Because Dave has been deployed
overseas and Rachel frequently travels on business, they say
one of the most rewarding parts of the competition was the
chance to spend so much time together.
