Dr. Jennifer Holland, assistant principal at Smith-Cotton Junior High School, will leave Sedalia School District 200 at the end of the current academic year to become the lead curriculum developer and professional development consultant for the Illinois Network of Child Care Resource and Referral Agencies (INCCRRA), the accrediting agency of early childhood education in Illinois.

The 2014 Academy of Country Music Awards nominees have been announced! Tim McGraw and Miranda Lambert lead the race, with seven nominations apiece.

We agree with Sir Ben Kingley's sentiment in this Jaguar Super Bowl 2014 commercial that British actors are always being typecast as villains in Hollywood. Luckily, he's brought two other British actors who are also synonymous for playing villains to help prove a point -- that British supervillains are always classy and sophisticated. And what would such classy bad guys do besides ride in private

Just when you thought we were out of The Matrix, Laurence Fishburne, who played the riddle-speaking Morpheus in the Wachowski's sci-fi franchise, reprises his role for one masterful 2014 Super Bowl ad for Kia Motors. So which will it be? The blue keys or the red keys?

Everyone has thought about quitting his or her job in some type of grand fashion, whether it be making a scene as you leave your former place of employment or telling off your boss.

Few people are as welcome on our televisions as Terry Crews and few felt creatures warm our hearts quite like the Muppets. In other words, if you want to sell us a Toyota, there are far worse spokespeople (and spokespuppets) to use. In the grand tradition of modern Super Bowl ads, the presumably very expensive spot starring these guys is online in advance of the big game, giving everyone who doesn

Audi is known for being among the big three of German luxury automakers, so it makes sense that they would go all out in the latest of leaked Super Bowl 2014 commercials. This car commercial features an animal revving through the streets that is as pretty as it is powerful. It's cute, it's ruthless, it's a fashion accessory and it's a trophy breed -- meet the Doberhuahua!
