Ransomware may sound like something out of a James Bond film, but unfortunately this kind of malicious software is very real. Hospitals and clinics need to be aware of ransomware and how to prevent it from compromising their patients' medical and personal financial information.
Ransomware is defined as a type of malware—or malicious software—that prevents or limits users from accessing their computer systems or files. According to Trend Micro™—an IT security company based in Texas—users can inadvertently infect their computers with ransomware by clicking on questionable e-mails or attachments or visiting an unsafe website. Once executed in the system, ransomware can either lock the computer screen or encrypt predetermined files with a password. In the first instance, the ransomware will show a full-screen image or notification, which prevents its victims from using their system, and gives instructions on how users can pay the ransom to have their system unlocked. In the second, the ransomware will encrypt documents, spreadsheets and other important files of the user or the entire system until the ransom is paid.
Payment does not always guarantee that users can regain access to their files or systems, however, or that the hackers will not attack again. The best practice for ransomware prevention is backing up all files and systems. Trend Micro suggests the 3-2-1 method of "three backup copies on two different media with one backup in a separate location."
A few ransomware attacks against hospitals in California made national headlines this spring. In March, Wired.com reported a ransomware cyberattack at the Hollywood Presbyterian Medical Center in Los Angeles. Its computers were offline for over a week until hospital officials agreed to pay the equivalent of $17,000 in internet trading currency known as Bitcoin.
Ransomware attacks against clinics and hospitals are happening at a growing rate—and it's not just happening in California. Wisconsin Medical Society Insurance and Financial Services heard from two facilities in Wisconsin, an independent physician clinic and a rural hospital, which experienced ransomware attacks recently. In both cases, good risk management and data backup procedures saved them from disastrous outcomes. But even then, they both experienced computer system down time and the need to retrieve records, which caused a delay in billing.
This two-minute video, produced by the risk resource team at ProAssurance, describes how some common cyberattacks can occur and offers tips for safeguarding people's private electronic information.
Wisconsin Medical Society Insurance and Financial Services, in partnership with ProAssurance, offers cutting-edge insurance coverage for data security losses.

Hosted by Poulton & Carleton Residents' Association
Meeting held 7th November 2016
Summary of main points discussed, decisions and actions agreed
Welcome and Introductions
Lesley Middleton introduced herself and Bill Waller (Residents' Association Chair and Vice-Chair respectively) and welcomed those present to the 21st Forum meeting.
Attendees: Approximately 90 members of the public plus police Inspector Jonathan Smith and Poulton PC Craig Brown, and Wyre Councillors Roger Berry, Barry Birch, Colette Birch, Simon Bridge, Peter Gibson, Ron Greenhough, David Henderson, Lesley McKay, and Poulton's Lancashire County Councillor, Alf Clempson. Apologies for absence had been received from some members of the public and Councillor Michael Vincent.
There is approximately £150 in the Association's bank account and consequently donations to help meet administration costs were not being sought on this occasion. Lesley reported she had agreed that the Residents' Association purchase a wreath which Bill Waller will lay at the Armistice Day memorial ceremony.
Scam/Internet Fraud Awareness
Lois Pell gave a talk about protecting oneself and elderly relatives and friends from scams and internet fraud. Lois works for Home Instead Senior Care, a private company that provides older people with companionship and care in their own homes (www.homeinstead.co.uk/fyldeandwyre). They work with the national Trading Standard's scams team (www.tradingstandards.gov.uk) and with the charity Think Jessica (www.thinkjessica.com) to raise awareness about this increasingly common crime. Anyone can be a target but the elderly are particularly vulnerable – they are often asset rich, may have declining cognitive function, could have health issues that mean their property is not well maintained and could be isolated and thus susceptible to cold callers.
Some of the most common types of scam include phone calls from people variously claiming to be from Microsoft, from the Telephone Preference Service (TPS) asking for registration payment, from your bank explaining that a courier needs to call and collect your compromised bank card and from a solicitor about an inheritance. Letters and emails, often very professional in appearance and carefully personalised, may come from bogus lotteries, fake charities, catalogue sellers, clairvoyants and more.
Golden rules to follow include – join the TPS and Mail Preference Service (MPS) – both are free and worthwhile even though they can't stop all fraudsters; keep your computer secure by using suitable protection software; never give out personal information in the course of a phone call that you did not initiate; if you want to give to a charity, pick one yourself; never throw important paperwork away without shredding it first; use LCC's Safe Trader scheme to find a workman; never tell anyone your PIN – no bank or building society will ever ask for it; and finally "If it sounds too good to be true, it probably is".
Anyone who thinks they may have been scammed can talk to Citizens Advice, Trading Standards, the local police or the Think Jessica charity.
Wyre Council's Local Plan
Peter Gibson explained that he wished to take the opportunity to correct some misinformation about the purpose of the Local Plan which is currently being developed for publication in 2017. Local Authorities are required by law to produce a Local Plan, the purpose of which is to help guide the delivery of the sustainable development that their area needs. The plan should set out how the borough will develop physically over a 15 year period to meet the needs of the community and businesses. It identifies land for developments such as housing and employment and also designates areas where development is controlled e.g. green belt. Once adopted the plan is used to determine planning applications. One of the key planning assumptions is the number of new dwellings likely to be needed and the Council has accepted a figure of 479 per annum. However, the actual number that the Local Plan can deliver may be lower than this depending on constraints such as highway capacity and flood risk. As part of the process the Council has to allocate i.e. identify sufficient land to meet 5 years' housing needs. If the Plan does not do this then planning permission may be granted to build on other, unallocated land.
Peter has some personal concerns about the process, notably the accuracy of population forecasts, the cost of the exercise and the extent of external influence but work continues and the Plan will be ready for 2017. More information can be found on the Wyre Council website (www.wyre.gov.uk) e.g. in the Wyre Local Plan Briefing published August 2016.
Boundary Commission Proposals
Alf Clempson explained that there is a consultation exercise under way about the Boundary Commission's initial proposals to change Parliamentary Constituency boundaries. The number of constituencies in the North West is to reduce from 75 to 68, each of the new constituencies must have between 71,031 and 78,507 electors and Lancashire will lose 2 MPs. After the initial consultation which ends on 5th December, there will be a further exercise in 2017 about possibly revised plans with final recommendations made by September 2018 and, if agreed, the new boundaries coming into effect for the 2020 General Election. Poulton/Carleton is currently part of the Wyre & North Preston constituency. Under the initial proposals most of that area will become part of a new North Lancashire constituency but Poulton/Carleton will become part of the Fylde constituency. Alf's view is that Poulton/Carleton should preferably be part of North Lancashire but the electoral numbers would breach the maximum limit. He does not favour the option of managing this by splitting Poulton/Carleton between two constituencies. Alf wishes to encourage residents to participate in the consultation and issued copies of boundary maps. (See www.bce2018.org.uk).
Planning and Other Updates
6.1. Peter Gibson reported that Aldi's target opening date is 24th November 2016.
6.2. The 60+ Community Centre (in the Teanlowe Centre) will be formally opened by The Mayor at 11.00 am on 14th November and Councillor Birch encouraged residents to support the centre. Peter Gibson confirmed that discussions are ongoing with Senior's about the possibility of opening a Fish & Chip shop in the other half of the premises.
6.3. Re-surfacing – Alf confirmed that the resurfacing programme is continuing with Compley Avenue scheduled to be done 15-22 November; Moorland Road, which is sinking, is his next priority.
6.4. Pavements & Crossings – Alf is also focusing on getting LCC to improve the condition of pavements. His request for additional safety features on the new crossings (lights, railings, special surface) has been refused but he will continue to argue the case.
6.5. Speeding – safety assessments and options for calming measures are to be considered for Blackpool Old Road, Breck Road, Lower/Higher Green, Hardhorn Road and others. Lancashire Constabulary will assist. Alf has managed to get some SIDs (smiley face type Speed Indicator Signs) to be deployed but is still trying to get agreement to speed limit road markings.
6.6. Parking – Blackpool has introduced Residents' Parking and as a result drivers are now parking in the Normoss area. Alf is continuing his fight to get Residents' Parking in Poulton. He is also working with local schools/colleges about student parking. He has been assured by the Manager of the Tesco Express on Garstang Road that wagons will only be allowed to load/unload in the bay provided.
6.7. Bus Services – Blackpool Transport has declined to run a late night bus back to Poulton. An announcement is expected shortly from Catch 22 about a service from Carleton to Poulton which is expected to start in mid December.
6.8. Stannah Park – Councillor Henderson has established that the footpaths have several owners including Wyre Council. Wyre Rangers will be seeking to make improvements but the investment needed remains an ongoing issue.
(Alf encourages residents to contact him about their concerns at any time. His contact details are: email firstname.lastname@example.com , Mobile – 07983335630, and at his informal surgery in the New Penny Cafe between 10.00 and 12.00 on Saturdays.)
Poulton Christmas Festival
Lesley McKay confirmed that the festival will take place on Friday 2nd December with stalls in the town centre, children's rides, crib lighting at 4.00 pm and Father Christmas travelling from Poulton Station to the Market Square at 4.45 pm. Weather permitting, the stalls will also be in the Square on Saturday 3rd December and residents are asked to support the event.
Any Other Business
8.1. Poulton in Bloom: Carol Woolley thanked all the volunteers, supporters and sponsors who had been involved in a very successful effort. Winners this year included: neighbourhood awards for the VPCC community garden, Poulton Rotary Garden and Cottam Hall Community Garden; gold for Poulton station which was also a category winner in the Station Section; silver-gilt to Wyre Council for the Jean Stansfield Memorial Garden; and, in the Young Wyre in Bloom section, awards for Breck School, St Johns Catholic Primary, St Chads Primary, St Chads Nursery and Carr Head Primary. These winners together with the RHS assessment of the various other beds, planters, and baskets around the town resulted in Poulton itself receiving a GOLD AWARD.
8.2. Avenue Road, Normoss: A question was raised about what had been happening to a parcel of land off Avenue Road where is was said that there had been wanton destruction of habitat, attempted alteration to public footpaths, and use of unknown fertiliser, unsafe equipment and unapproved processes. Councillor Birch confirmed that Wyre rangers had been monitoring the situation and noted that the trees removed by the developer had been replaced. There are three tracks that are public rights of way but otherwise the land is privately owned. Alf Clempson confirmed that he had lost his fight to preserve some other footpaths.
8.3. Virgin Media: are planning to extend their network and residents can be kept up to date by registering at https://cablemystreet.virginmedia.com. Apparently, the more people who register the better the chances of an area getting cabled.
8.4. Parking
i) Concern was raised about the layout of the Booths/Teanlowe car park which is not seen as conducive to easy parking. It was suggested that this could be raised on the Dear Booths Website (http://dearbooths.co.uk) and also that Alf had some information about planned changes to the car park access.
ii) A new memorial bench has been placed in the Market Square opposite the War Memorial and a complaint was made that Royale Estate Agents were persistently parking a company car in front of it. Alf agreed to follow up.
8.5. Lancashire Day: takes place on 27th November and there will be a Proclamation reading in the Market Place at 12.00 noon by our town crier which residents are asked to support.
8.6. Volunteers: Lesley made a plea for volunteers to help with running the forum meetings; at registration, with the radio mics or to occasionally chair. Names to Lesley please if you can help (email@example.com).
Date of Next Meeting
The next meeting will be on Monday 6th February 2017 in the Methodist Church, Queensway, Poulton.

Christina Wells Sings Natural Woman Semifinals America's Got Talent 2018
Christina Wells Natural Woman
Her pre-package video features Christina gazing into a mirror and realizes that she's beautiful inside and out! It's overly sentimental and cloying. Also, performing first doesn't bode well for her chances in the competition. She's obviously not a favorite. Christina belts out a serviceable version of Aretha Franklin's "(You Make Me Feel Like a) Natural Woman." She's super growly tonight. Yikes. She's pushing her voice too hard–she whiffs a couple of notes and is flat throughout. That was unpleasant. Heidi is standing for her, though. "You are an amazing woman," says Howie. "There was a couple of note shere…you pushed a little hard and hit a couple of weird notes." Christina seems to be aware of that. So many singers tonight. She's done. Mel tells her to look after her voice. Heidi says she's got moxie. Simon felt the song was over-orchestrated and yes, she hit some bum notes. He hopes America puts her through anyway. Tara calls her a "gorgeous beautiful woman."

CBS takes Monday prime
CBS won Monday night by a convincing margin, coming in first in households,
total viewers and adults 18 through 49 and 25 through 54. That's according to
Nielsen Media Research's fast affiliate ratings report. CBS was second among
adults 18 through 34 behind ABC.
CBS was powered by Everybody Loves Raymond, the most-watched
network show last night, with 20.7 million viewers, and by CSI: Miami,
the second-most-watched, with 18.6 million viewers. The prime time portion of
Monday Night Football was the third-most-watched show, attracting
an average 15.5 million viewers. NBC aired Julia Roberts theatrical Erin
Brockovich and placed third across the key ratings categories for the night.

Building on Pact's successful implementation of PEACE II, this project works along Kenya's borders with Uganda, Ethiopia, South Sudan and Somalia to strengthen conflict-management systems and build the capacity of regional and national institutions to stem cross-border conflict.
ITA Tin Supply Chain Initiative (ITSCI)
Pact leads field implementation for the International Tin Association's tin supply chain initiative (ITSCI), the region's only internationally accepted, operational due diligence mechanism and mineral traceability system for the 3T minerals -- tungsten, tin and tantalum. The system monitors minerals from the point of extraction at mines sites to smelters, where minerals are processed for use in electronics and other everyday devices. Pact conducts mine baseline studies to assess when sites are able to enter the system and supports governments in implementing the mineral tracking system. We also ensure that international guidance for 'conflict free' minerals is respected, including no human rights abuses, child labor, armed conflict or corruption. Pact records incidents when they arise and facilitates their resolution. The system allows tens of thousands of miners to earn a dignified living and build a better future for themselves and their families.

Strategies for patentee lawsuits against design invalidations
Chinese consumers are paying more and more attention to the unique design of products. Under such circumstances, design patent rights become increasingly important in market competition, and thus a target that infringers tend to attack. A strategy the infringers usually use during infringement lawsuits is to file a request for invalidation against the patent right.
Once the design patent is invalidated, the commercial loss for the patentee is inestimable. So the patentee has to maintain its patent right via an administrative lawsuit, and it can be difficult for the patentee to win. The following is such a case the authors dealt with recently.
In 2012, Kohler Co. found that Xima Co. exhibited, produced and sold a toilet that infringed Kohler's design patent on a large scale. Without any positive response, after communication and repeated warnings, Kohler filed an infringement lawsuit. Xima filed requests for invalidation against Kohler's design patents three times, even after the first instance and second instance courts decided that Xima must stop infringing and compensate for damages. Unfortunately, Kohler's design was invalidated in the third invalidation procedure. The patent product, NUMI toilet, which is a star product of Kohler, had won international design awards, and so this unfavorable decision produced a serious negative influence on Kohler's rights protection and marketing. In order to protect the patentee's legitimate rights and interests, the authors, on behalf of Kohler, filed an administrative lawsuit against the decision.
In the above case, the prior design that the Patent Re-examination Board (PRB) used to invalidate the implicated design came from a small picture taken from obscure magazine years ago, and the outline and design details could not be determined from the copy that Xima provided.
Dispute Focuses
For an accurate comparison, we obtained this magazine so that the outline and design details could be presented clearly. During the comparison, both parties were focusing on the following three aspects: First, whether the whole design styles of the prior design and the implicated design were similar or not; second, whether the prior design included the back tank shown in the implicated design or not; and third, whether the difference between the toilet cover and seat in the prior design and the implicated design was notable or not.
During the hearing and in the statement after hearing, the authors listed common types of toilets and demonstrated that the prior design actually did not include a back tank, and also analyzed the "exactly matching" visual effect of the implicated design and the layered visual effect of the prior design, as well as the influence brought by the differences between them to the whole visual effect.
Recently, Beijing IP Court made the first instance decision upholding the patentee's claims, deciding to revoke the above decision issued by the PRB, and requiring the PRB to make a new decision on the invalidation request against the implicated design patent.
In view of the invalidation decision issued by the PRB, all aspects of evidence, besides re-comparing the implicated design to the prior design to prove the obvious fact-finding error in the decision, play roles in whether the patent can be sustained.
In addition to the determination of the differences in the design details, it is especially significant to summarize the whole design style of the product that forms the whole visual effect on which consumers focus their concerns.
Moreover, as for the unique design features of the design patent in comparison to the prior design, the context of prior designs does matter. Hence, it is advantageous, for determining the unique design features of the design patent and analyzing the difference between the design patent and the prior design, to submit evidence showing the context of prior designs. Besides the above work, the authors also brought the real object to the court for the judges' reference, clearly showing the patent product and so facilitating the comparison. On the other hand, other evidence the authors submitted, such as those proving Xima's willful infringement and the awards of the implicated design patent, further moved the case in the patentee's favour.
At present, as we expected, Xima still insists on appealing, and this case is under the second instance. However, the authors believe that the patent right of the patentee will be sustained and protected eventually.

Chivas USA Returns to Market in the Santa Ana Area
And just on the heels of the Galaxy's marketing efforts in Santa Ana, Chivas USA returns to the Santa Ana area to market this weekend's game against the San Jose Earthquakes.
Edgar Mejía, who is on loan this season from Chivas de Guadalajara, and Anaheim native Carlos Borja will be in person at Super A's restaurant at 2949 Fairview Rd in Costa Mesa this Thursday April, 25th. The players will be there from 6 to 7:30 pm signing autographs, handing out jerseys, and giving out tickets to this weekend's game to the first 50 people in attendance.
Chivas USA has done a number of outreach efforts in the past in Santa Ana proper and the surrounding area. They marketed last year at MainPlace mall with a soccer clinic for kids and at Centennial Park in a 4 versus 4 soccer event called the Battle of LA.
They commonly host Santa Ana youth teams at their games at the Home Depot Center.
Further back in time (during the days of Jonathan Bornstein around 2006 or 2007) they held a training session at Santa Ana Stadium.
More info at www.cdchivasusa.com
One Response
And densely developed Santa Ana has been reluctant to part with such a vast swath of open space. City Manager David Ream said earlier this year that it would take a great project to make up for the loss of the golf course.

Poultry farming is the raising of domesticated birds such as chickens, ducks, turkeys and geese for the purpose of farming meat or eggs for food. Poultry are farmed in great numbers with chickens being the most numerous. More than 50 billion chickens are raised annually as a source of food, for both their meat and their eggs. Chickens raised for eggs are usually called layers while chickens raised for meat are often called broilers. In the US, the national organization overseeing poultry production is the Food and Drug Administration (FDA). In the UK, the national organisation is the Department for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs (Defra).
Intensive and alternative
According to the researchers and scientists, 74% of the world's poultry meat, and 68 percent of eggs are produced in ways that are described as 'intensive'. One alternative to intensive poultry farming is free-range farming using lower stocking densities. Poultry producers routinely use nationally approved medications, such as antibiotics, in feed or drinking water, to treat disease or to prevent disease outbreaks. Some FDA-approved medications are also approved for improved feed utilization.
Egg-laying chickens – husbandry systems
Commercial hens usually begin laying eggs at 16–20 weeks of age, although production gradually declines soon after from approximately 25 weeks of age. This means that in many countries, by approximately 72 weeks of age, flocks are considered economically unviable and are slaughtered after approximately 12 months of egg production, although chickens will naturally live for 6 or more years. In some countries, hens are force moulted to re-invigorate egg-laying.
Environmental conditions are often automatically controlled in egg-laying systems. For example, the duration of the light phase is initially increased to prompt the beginning of egg-laying at 16–20 weeks of age and then mimics summer daylength which stimulates the hens to continue laying eggs all year round; normally, egg production occurs only in the warmer months. Some commercial breeds of hen can produce over 300 eggs a year.
Free Range
Free-range poultry farming allows chickens to roam freely for a period of the day, although they are usually confined in sheds at night to protect them from predators or kept indoors if the weather is particularly bad. In the UK, the Department for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs (Defra) states that a free-range chicken must have day-time access to open-air runs during at least half of its life. Unlike in the United States, this definition also applies to free-range egg laying hens. The European Union regulates marketing standards for egg farming which specifies a minimum condition for free-range eggs that "hens have continuous daytime access to open-air runs, except in the case of temporary restrictions imposed by veterinary authorities". The RSPCA "Welfare standards for laying hens and pullets" indicates that the stocking rate must not exceed 1,000 birds per hectare (10 m2 per hen) of range available and a minimum area of overhead shade/shelter of 8 m2 per 1,000 hens must be provided.
Free-range farming of egg-laying hens is increasing its share of the market. Defra figures indicate that 45% of eggs produced in the UK throughout 2010 were free-range, 5% were produced in barn systems and 50% from cages. This compares with 41% being free-range in 2009.
Suitable land requires adequate drainage to minimise worms and coccidial oocysts, suitable protection from prevailing winds, good ventilation, access and protection from predators. Excess heat, cold or damp can have a harmful effect on the animals and their productivity. Free-range farmers have less control than farmers using cages in what food their chickens eat, which can lead to unreliable productivity, though supplementary feeding reduces this uncertainty. In some farms, the manure from free-range poultry can be used to benefit crops.
The benefits of free-range poultry farming for laying hens include opportunities for natural behaviours such as pecking, scratching, foraging and exercise outdoors.
Both intensive and free-range farming have animal welfare concerns. Cannibalism, feather pecking and vent pecking can be common, prompting some farmers to use beak trimming as a preventative measure, although reducing stocking rates would eliminate these problems. Diseases can be common and the animals are vulnerable to predators. Barn systems have been found to have the worst bird welfare. In South-East Asia, a lack of disease control in free range farming has been associated with outbreaks of Avian influenza
In organic egg-laying systems, chickens are also free-range. Organic systems are based upon restrictions on the routine use of synthetic yolk colourants, in-feed or in-water medications, other food additives and synthetic amino acids, and a lower stocking density and smaller group sizes. The Soil Association standards used to certify organic flocks in the UK, indicate a maximum outdoors stocking density of 1,000 birds per hectare and a maximum of 2,000 hens in each poultry house. In the UK, organic laying hens are not routinely beak-trimmed.
While often confused with free-range farming, yarding is actually a separate method of poultry culture by which chickens and cows are raised together. The distinction is that free-range poultry are either totally unfenced, or the fence is so distant that it has little influence on their freedom of movement. Yarding is common technique used by small farms in the Northeastern US. The birds are released daily from hutches or coops. The hens usually lay eggs either on the floor of the coop or in baskets if provided by the farmer. This husbandry technique can be complicated if used with roosters, mostly because of aggressive behavior.
Battery Cage
The majority of hens in many countries are reared in battery cages, although the European Union Council Directive 1999/74/EC has banned the conventional battery cage in EU states from January 2012. These are small cages, usually made of metal in modern systems, housing 3 to 8 hens. The walls are made of either solid metal or mesh, and the floor is sloped wire mesh to allow the faeces to drop through and eggs to roll onto an egg-collecting conveyor belt. Water is usually provided by overhead nipple systems, and food in a trough along the front of the cage replenished at regular intervals by a mechanical chain.
The cages are arranged in long rows as multiple tiers, often with cages back-to-back (hence the term 'battery cage'). Within a single shed, there may be several floors containing battery cages meaning that a single shed may contain many tens of thousands of hens. Light intensity is often kept low (e.g. 10 lux) to reduce feather pecking and vent pecking. Benefits of battery cages include easier care for the birds, floor eggs which are expensive to collect are eliminated, eggs are cleaner, capture at the end of lay is expedited, generally less feed is required to produce eggs, broodiness is eliminated, more hens may be housed in a given house floor space, internal parasites are more easily treated, and labor requirements are generally much reduced.
In farms using cages for egg production, there are more birds per unit area; this allows for greater productivity and lower food costs. Floor space ranges upwards from 300 cm2 per hen. EU standards in 2003 called for at least 550 cm2 per hen. In the US, the current recommendation by the United Egg Producers is 67 to 86 in2 (430 to 560 cm2) per bird. The space available to battery hens has often been described as less than the size of a piece of A4 paper. Animal welfare scientists have been critical of battery cages because they do not provide hens with sufficient space to stand, walk, flap their wings, perch, or make a nest, and it is widely considered that hens suffer through boredom and frustration through being unable to perform these behaviours. This can lead to a wide range of abnormal behaviours, some of which are injurious to the hens or their cagemates.

Who's Next… XFFC 8
Although Xcessive Force FC 8 was decimated by injuries there were still some solid fights on the card and a new Flyweight Champion was crowned. In this article, we'll explore who could be next for some of the notable Canadian fighters from Friday's fight card. Keep in mind, in most cases the matchups listed here are hypothetical and have not been announced or rumored to be taking place unless otherwise noted.
Let us know your thoughts on who should be up next for the big winners and the rest of the card.
125lbs- Yoni Sherbatov (5-0) vs. Austin Ryan (6-0)
Champion vs. Champion
Yoni Sherbatov and Austin Ryan have established themselves as the top two non-Zuffa 125ers in Canada with their recent dominant victories. Yoni Sherbatov absolutely starched a very tough Adrian Woolley at XFFC 8 and Austin Ryan was just as impressive in his TKO victory over a tough Randy Turner last week at Havoc FC 10. It seems that the youngsters are taking over the division and this is the only fight that makes sense! This one has to happen whether it be in XFFC or Havoc FC, for one of the belts or for both, who cares just get it done and lets see these two elite young prospects battle for Flyweight Supremacy!
125lbs- Adrian Woolley (9-5) vs. Randy Turner (8-4)
As long as we're doing winner vs. winner we might as well take the easy road and match the runners-up together as well. Adrian Woolley and Randy Turner may have both been defeated but you better believe they wont be down long. Both men will be hungry to get back into the cage and restart the climb back up the ladder and who better to do it against than each other. Hunger and desperation can sometimes make for the most entertaining fights and neither man will want to give up any more ground in their quest back towards a title fight which would likely make this a must see match up.
115lbs- Alyssa Krahn (3-1) vs. Lindsay Garbatt (3-1)
Considering Alyssa Krahn and Diana Atkin are teammates once again the next most interesting option for Krahn would likely be someone like Lindsay Garbatt. Garbatt has put together a matching 3-1 record over her first year of Pro MMA competition and would offer a good challenge for Krahn considering Garbatt also boasts an 8-7-2 record in pro boxing in addition to her budding mixed martial arts career. Coincidentally Garbatt is in need of an opponent for Hard Knocks in January and Krahn didn't seem to suffer any significant damage. ;)
145lbs- Travis Matthews (4-1) vs. Wolfgang Janssen (5-2)
Travis Matthews is not a name a lot of fans are going to recognize. This was his first fight in over two years but he has quietly put together a respectable 4-1 record. If Matthews wants to make a name for himself perhaps a bout against YouTube sensation Wolfgang Janssen would be a good way to do that. A win over the likes of Janssen would give Matthews a recognizable name on his resume and a stiff test to see where he stands in the Canadian Featherweight

People often assume they'll never face criminal charges. You probably think you follow the law and you're generally a good person. That may very well be true, but that doesn't mean you'll never get arrested.
For example, here are five incredible reasons why people have faced charges or been arrested. Some of them may be things you've already done.
1. Refusing to Return a Football
Neighbor kids were playing with a football, which kept flying into the yard of an 88-year-old grandmother. After this had happened repeatedly, she just took the ball and kept it. The police arrived and she faced theft charges.
2. Cutting Steak with a Steak Knife
An elementary student had leftover steak for lunch. She brought it to the cafeteria with her. She naturally packed herself a steak knife to cut it. She wound up facing felony weapons charges and getting a 10-day suspension.
3. Having a Food Fight
You know how, when you were a kid, you always loved those food fight scenes in the movies? Well, dozens of students engaged in a food fight in Chicago and they were all arrested. They wound up spending hours at the police station.
4. Reading a Cheating Spouse's Email
A man thought his spouse was cheating on him, so he decided to read some of her emails. He found out he was right; she was having an affair. Unfortunately for him, reading those messages got him felony charges and he wound up behind bars for five years.
5. Dropping Some Cake
Anyone with children knows they drop a lot of food. A high school student dropped some cake and didn't clean up the mess. The security guard on duty at her school opted to arrest her. It gets worse. While doing so, the security guard broke her arm.
What Now?
As you can see, it sometimes takes far less than you'd expect to get arrested. If this happens to you, make sure you know your legal options.

'Jumanji 2' Roars to $60M Opening While A24's 'Uncut Gems' Delivers Studio Record Debut
While the studio attempted to downplay expectations, Sony's Jumanji: The Next Level opened at the top end of industry expectations, leading the weekend charge with a December studio record opening and getting the box office off to a strong start for the holiday frame. Though, it has to be mentioned, that strong start didn't trickle down to the weekend's two other new wide releases as both Universal and Blumhouse's Black Christmas and WB's Richard Jewell fell well below expectations.
'Jumanji 2' Poised for $50M+ Debut While 'Uncut Gems' Strong in Limited Release
SATURDAY AM UPDATE: Sony's Jumanji: The Next Level is delivering on Mojo's pre-weekend expectations and then some, bringing in an estimated $19.4 million on Friday, heading toward a $50+ million three-day debut. To go along with the strong performance, the film received an "A-" CinemaScore from opening day audiences. Otherwise, the weekend's two fellow newcomers are struggling.
'Frozen II' Threepeats Atop Weekend Box Office While 'Playmobil' Bombs
It was yet another weekend atop the weekend box office for Disney's Frozen II, which has now topped $900 million globally, well on its way to becoming the studio's sixth 2019 release to top the $1 billion mark at the worldwide box office. Meanwhile, while Focus Features saw Dark Waters finish just outside the top five in its nationwide expansion this weekend, STX's release of Playmobil failed to make the top ten, delivering the third worst opening ever for a film debuting in over 2,000 locations.
'Frozen II' Headed Toward Third Straight Weekend at #1 While 'Playmobil' Bombs
SATURDAY AM UPDATE: Disney's Frozen II is looking at another weekend atop the weekend box office after an estimated $7.8 million on Friday, with expectations for a third weekend around $35 million and a domestic cume topping $337 million. The performance is a bit behind Mojo's forecast, but is still in line with the average post-Thanksgiving dip for top titles.
'Frozen II' Feasts on Thanksgiving Records While 'Knives Out' & 'Queen & Slim' Enjoy Strong Holiday Openings
The folks at Disney have full bellies after the animated feature Frozen II delivered three and five-day Thanksgiving records as the film topped $287 million domestically after just ten days in release and $739 million globally in the film's first 12 days. But it wasn't all Disney this weekend as Lionsgate's Knives Out exceeded expectations with a five-day performance topping $41 million and Universal and Makeready's Queen & Slim found a place in the top five.
'Knives Out' and 'Queen & Slim' Deliver While 'Frozen II' Feasts On Thanksgiving Records
SATURDAY AM UPDATE: Frozen II is headed toward a record Thanksgiving three and five-day performance after bringing in an estimated $34 million on Friday heading toward what is currently looking like an $88+ million three-day and a $128 million five-day performance, both of which would serve as records for the time frame.
'Frozen II' Delivers $350 Million Global Debut
SUNDAY AM UPDATE: Disney's Frozen II delivered a monster debut, bringing in an estimated $127 million domestically, which serves as the largest animated opening ever outside the summer corridor and a record animated opening for the month of November. In fact, the performance is the fifth largest November opening of all-time, topping the $125 million opening for Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part 1 back in 2010. The film played to an audience that was 59% female with families making up 70% of the opening weekend crowd.
'Ford v Ferrari' Races to #1 While 'Joker' Becomes First R-Rated Film to Ever Top $1 Billion Globally
Fox's Ford v Ferrari more than lived up to the most aggressive of pre-weekend expectations, delivering a #1 performance at the domestic weekend box office. However, Sony's Charlie's Angels struggled mightily in its debut, failing to reach the lowest of expectations, which means the film's third place finish puts the weekend's overall performance into perspective. In better news, WB's Joker became the fourth DC Comics adaptation to ever top $1 billion at the global box office and the first R-rated movie to ever reach that milestone.
'Ford v Ferrari' Racing Toward $30 Million Debut, 'Charlie's Angels' Far from Heavenly
SATURDAY AM UPDATE: Fox's Ford v Ferrari is living up to tracking expectations, out performing Mojo's pre-weekend forecast after bringing in an estimated $10.9 million on Friday, racing toward a $30 million three-day weekend. On top of that, while we knew critics already liked the film, opening day audiences gave it an impressive "A+" CinemaScore, boding well for the rest of the weekend and beyond.
'Midway' Scores Surprise #1 Finish as 'Doctor Sleep' is Caught Napping
Heading into the weekend we were anticipating a top ten that would deliver around $110 million, as it turns out the top ten currently falls just short of a combined $100 million as Lionsgate's Midway delivered a surprise #1 finish, topping WB's Doctor Sleep, which slipped to second and well below expectations. Paramount's Playing with Fire joined Midway in outperforming expectations while Universal's Last Christmas fell below Mojo's forecast, but well within studio expectations.
'Midway' Set for #1 Finish as It Catches 'Doctor Sleep' Napping
SATURDAY AM UPDATE: Lionsgate's Midway is the surprise of the weekend, bringing in an estimated $6.34 million on Friday and looking to finish #1 for the weekend with a three-day that could reach $18 million, well ahead of expectations. The film also earned an "A" CinemaScore from opening day audiences, which suggests word of mouth throughout the weekend could carry it even higher.Ewan McGregorRebecca FergusonEmilia ClarkeHenry GoldingRoland Emmerich
'Terminator: Dark Fate' Tops Weekend with Soft $29M Debut; 'Harriet' Strong with $11.6M Opening
Paramount's Terminator: Dark Fate was able to score the weekend's #1 spot, but it came in well below expectations, calling into question the fate of the Terminator franchise once again. Meanwhile, Focus's release of Harriet destroyed expectations, delivering a #4 finish to go along with a strong, "A+" CinemaScore from opening day audiences.
'Terminator: Dark Fate' Eyes Disappointing $28M Debut; 'Harriet' Looks at Strong $10.5M+ Debut
SATURDAY AM UPDATE: Paramount's Terminator: Dark Fate is looking very soft after an estimated $10.6 million Friday, heading toward a three-day performance that could come up shy of the $27 million debut for 2015's Terminator Genisys. The film received a "B+" CinemaScore from opening day audiences.
'Joker' Narrowly Holds Off 'Maleficent' to Return to the Weekend's Top Spot
It's a narrow race at the top of the box office, but based on estimates WB's Joker was able to return to the weekend #1 spot after a brief respite last weekend as Disney's Maleficent: Mistress of Evil falls to second in its sophomore frame Meanwhile it was an equally tight race for third as well as fifth with the new releases of Countdown and Black and Blue competing for that last spot in the top five.
'Joker' and 'Maleficent' Neck and Neck for #1 while 'Black and Blue' and 'Countdown' Compete for Fifth
SATURDAY AM UPDATE: STXfilms's horror thriller Countdown took in an estimated $3.1 million on Friday. The $6.5 million production is expected to deliver a $7.5-8+ million debut. The film received a "C+" CinemaScore from opening day audiences.
'Maleficent: Mistress of Evil' Tops the Weekend, but Falls Short of Expectations
This weekend saw the release of two new sequels and Disney's Maleficent: Mistress of Evil topped the chart as expected, albeit with a lighter performance than expected. However, Sony's Zombieland: Double Tap came in on the high side of expectations while WB's Joker continued its strong run and will soon top $250 million domestically. Elsewhere, Neon's Parasite, A24's The Lighthouse and Fox Searchlight's Jojo Rabbit all had strong showings in limited release.
'Maleficent' and 'Zombieland' Deliver a Double Dose of Sequels this Weekend
SATURDAY AM UPDATE: Disney's Maleficent: Mistress of Evil is on its way to a #1 finish, albeit a bit lighter than expected. The film brought in an estimated $12.5 million on Friday and is looking at a three-day performance around $38+ million. It received an "A" CinemaScore from opening day audiences.
'Joker' Repeats at #1, 'Addams Family' Solid in Second and 'Parasite' Feasts
In the face of three new wide releases, there was no dethroning Joker from the weekend's top spot as the film not only topped the weekend box office domestically, internationally and worldwide, it has already generated over $543 million globally in just its first twelve days in global release. As for the newcomers, UAR's The Addams Family led the way with a solid second place debut while Paramount's Gemini Man and Lionsgate's Jexi struggled to find an audience. However, one film that didn't struggle was Neon's release of the Palme d'Or winner Parasite, which made an impact in just three theaters this weekend.
'Joker' Will Get Last Laugh Over 'Addams Family' and 'Gemini Man'
SATURDAY AM UPDATE: The weekend's new releases are performing mostly as expected, but before we get to them we have to mention WB's Joker, which brought in an estimated $17 million on Friday, to kick off what is looking like a possible $60 million second weekend, signaling a drop that could be less than -40%. A strong performance and a clear sign this film is resonating with audiences.
'Joker' Delivers Largest October Opening Ever with $93.5 Million
This weekend saw the Warner Bros. DC Comics adaptation Joker deliver the largest October domestic opening weekend of all-time and the fourth largest opening ever for an R-rated feature. The film was the #1 movie domestically and overseas, kicking things off with a $234 million global launch.

The Chartered Institute of Building Services Engineers is backing a government consultation to make it mandatory to log all air conditioning inspections.
Mandatory inspections form part of Communities and Local Government consultation, Making
Better Use of Energy Performance Certificates and Data, which launched this month and runs until 25 May.
There are currently no legal requirements for air conditioning reports to be lodged on a central register, although all must be lodged with the inspector's accrediting body.
But CIBSE said this can cause some confusion, with some quite misleading claims that reports are not valid if they are not lodged.
As a result, CIBSE is backing proposals for mandatory lodgment of air conditioning inspections, which it said would bring increased clarity to the marketplace and ensure that all accredited energy assessors are on a level playing field.
CIBSE LCC Steering group chairman Bryan Franklin said: "Air conditioning inspections alreadyhave the lowest compliance rates – well below 5 per cent – and if these issues are not resolved, it is difficult to see how the industry can increase compliance and how the carbon emissions reductions expected from the introduction of air conditioning inspections can be delivered."
Buildings currently account for 50 per cent of the UK's carbon emissions, and air conditioning installations account for up to a third of energy consumed in buildings which have one installed.
Currently under the 2007 Energy Performance of Buildings Directive owners/occupiers are required to:
Have had any new air conditioning installations or those above 250kW inspected by January
Have any air conditioning installations above 12kW inspected by January 2011 and every five years thereafter.
Until a mandatory requirement is in place, accreditation schemes can choose whether or not to lodge their inspectors' reports with Landmark.
This is creating confusion among assessors and is affecting clients – who are being encouraged to base the decision to use an energy assessor on lodgement preferences, rather than the quality of service offered by the assessor.
The purpose of the directive is to provide owners with information on the performance of their air conditioning so that they can improve them if they are using too much energy.
CIBSE said lodgement in a central register would provide trading standards officers with information on which buildings have not been inspected and could be the single most effective enforcement measure so far.

History of Springfield, Massachusetts
Springfield, Massachusetts, lies on the banks of the Connecticut River, in the western part of the state. It is named for the city in England where William Pynchon, who founded the new city in 1636, was born. The city suffered considerable destruction during King Philip's War. Springfield became the national armory for the Continental Army during the War of Independence. Following the war, men from Western Massachusetts, led by Daniel Shays, attempted to seize the armory in what became known as Shays' Rebellion. The armory continued to produce Springfield rifles for the U.S. Army until it was closed in 1968.
Springfield's reputation as a weapons manufacturing center continued into the 19th century. In 1852, the year in which Springfield was incorporated as a city, Smith and Wesson incorporated in Springfield and has maintained its headquarters there to this day. Other highlights of Springfield�s history in manufacturing include the development in 1893 of the first commercially produced gasoline-powered automobile by the Duryea Brothers: Charles and Frank. In 1901, the Indian Manufacturing Company was founded in Springfield and produced the first brand of motorcycle in America.
Springfield also has a place in sports history. In 1891, James Naismith invented the game of basketball at the Springfield YMCA. The Naismith Memorial Basketball Hall of Fame is located in Springfield.
Springfield is the seat of Hampden County, although county governmental functions are now performed by Massachusetts state agencies.

Well, I should say, I planted seeds that will hopefully sprout into a butterfly garden.
I also planted seeds that will (with luck) turn into alyssum, poppies, zinnias, and nasturtiums.
Then I put a blanket out, and laid about in the sunshine with my dog whilst reading a trashy vampire novel.
Unfortunately, about an hour later I got a very bad headache and had to go inside and drink water.
Oh well, I still feel pretty productive!
